Drum Lessons For Kids
Starting your child on kid-friendly drum lessons is a surefire way to instill good practice and playing habits. Children will learn things like time management and music theory in addition to learning specific drumming techniques, including:
The double stroke.
The single stroke roll.
Basic rhythms.
Perfect posture.
How to play softly.
There is no sound more deterring than a child letting loose on a drum set with no sense of direction. As a parent seeking drum lessons for kids, you have the option of retaining an (often expensive) tutor that offers private in-home lessons, or you can go to a studio like Music & Arts. The good thing about lesson studios is the access to different teachers, meaning your child will be placed with the teacher and curriculum that's right for them.
The Lesson Studio at Music & Arts offers kid-friendly courses that are engaging and filled with fun content that covers all the bases. As a reminder, drumming lessons don't stop in the classroom. Like with any musical instrument, hobby, or sport your child pursues, it is vital that you continue to remain positive and encouraging for the duration of their time enrolled in drum lessons for kids.
Beginner Drum Lessons
If you've decided to trade those air drum skills in for a real-life drumming experience, we're glad to have you! Here at Music & Arts, we offer private lessons to suit your desires. Our courses will cover every genre and playing level, with that competitive edge you need to learn to play the drums with finesse.
To find pricing and locations just use our store locator to help get you started with playing drums in your state. Music & Arts' course curriculum will match your busy schedule, and our instructors are always ready to teach you how to drum perfect drum beats and really rock the drum kit.
Drummers who take beginner drum lessons progress a lot faster than those who don't. By default, drum lessons provide content that is tailored to fit the individual drummer, whereas books and videos have no way to gauge your playing level or style. It is easy to get lost when you don't fully grasp the material and have no way to ask questions! You should definitely consider switching those YouTube tutorial videos out for the undeniable value provided by beginner drum lessons.
Drum Lessons For Adults
No doubt, you've heard it a hundred times before: it is never too late to learn something new. As an adult, we are often too busy to take in the simple pleasures of life, and learning to play drums is no exception. We understand you may feel like that ship has already sailed, but you really couldn't be more wrong. Drum lessons for adults really do exist! There are drum students of all ages and walks of life, so it really won't be hard for you to find private drum lessons for adults.
Did you know that learning to play a musical instrument boosts your brain power? Playing the drums involves all four of your limbs working together, putting your brain cells into overdrive. Even better, playing the drums helps us overcome feelings of stress and relieves frustration and anger. Think about it: you had a hard day at work or someone upset you. Well, you're technically hitting something over and over, releasing adrenaline and dopamine. But instead of harm, you're creating sweet, sweet music.
Latin & Jazz Drumming Lessons
If you've mastered basic drumming, then you may want to consider taking Latin or jazz drumming lessons. How cool would it be to be able to add the feel-good vibes of the jazz drum to your repertoire? Attention rock stars: do you want to add more depth and color to your performances? Become a perfectly well-rounded drummer with Latin style drumming. This style uses both hands equally, so you will be challenged to venture out of your comfort zone of primarily using your dominant hand.
Jazz drumming lessons will surely make you a drumming force to be reckoned with. If you don't know where to look to find jazz drumming lessons, look no further! Music & Arts has a program just for beginner level jazz drummers, that's guaranteed to challenge you every step of the way. Take a look at The Lesson Studio to find a jazz drumming instructor in your city.
Snare Drum Lessons
The snare drum, also known as a side drum, is perhaps the most recognizable type of drum. The snare drum is considered to be a member of the percussion family. This versatile style of drum can be used in parades and both rock and modern band music. When a snare drum is struck with a drumstick, it produces a sharp echo or that "crack" sound that is commonplace in just about every style of music.
Learning to play the snare drum is crucial if you ever wish to make it far in your drumming career. You can take snare drum lessons to lock in the basics of this drum play. The snare drum is considered to be the most crucial piece of any drum kit, so as you start to venture into drumming, make sure you have mastered the most basic and important piece.
Drum Lessons at Music & Arts
You're already familiar with Music & Arts for all of your music essentials, but did you know that we have our own musical instrument instruction studios? We offer lessons across the United States and can meet your lifestyle needs with our private lessons. So if you're thinking about crossing off "learning to play the drums" from your bucket list, we are excited to meet you! Request a lesson today, what are you waiting for?

AFA: My Name is Ahmad Farhad Alakozay, I was born in November 20th 1986 in Herat, Afghanistan.
I graduated from Enghalab High School. on 2002 I started my bachelor in Computer Science Faculty after suffering a lot of problem due to lack of lecturer, therefore I got my bachelors at 2008.
FA: Can you tell us about Heratweb Services Group and its activities in Afghanistan?
AFA: Since I have been working with different ICT companies I decided to start my own business with classmates and friends' collaboration to establish Heratweb Services Group on April 19th -2009.
At the beginning we started concentrating on ISP (Internet Services Provider) and then we expanded it to Production, Logistics, Website domain and hosting, Software Development, Printing, Travel and Tours and finally Business consultant.
Immediately after we organized our team we did a contract with Spanish Army in Badqis Province and as they were happy with our services which made them to have more inquires for Internet service beside that our experiences helped us to be able to compete with many other ISP around Afghanistan. Since 2013 we have had the opportunity to provide Internet connection to many international organizations such as, USAID, ISAF, Afghan Government, World Vision and etc.
On February 2012, we took another step forward to help Afghans with opening of a none governmental foundation. Our recent activities are including opening a training center for street-kids, Print and distribute story books to students in different fields , Documentaries, TV show and etc.
Since we have been very successful in terms of education to street children that many local schools and university students showed their interests thus, we came up with the idea of a training center right after January 2013. In the other hand we are closely working with some specialist to establish a private school with many new facilities and equipments to those who are ready to reveal their abilities.
FA: How do you see the impact of social and digital media on your business' growth, especially in Herat, Afghanistan?
AFA: In the past 12 years after the Taliban regime we've considerably grown in media and social networks in Afghanistan especially in Herat which is one of the most peace-wanted cities in Afghanistan. Its people specially those who live in the city want to take part in the development and try to help and respect each other and share comments about the current events which leads to have a good percentage of the Social Networks and Digital Media growth in Herat.
FA: How did you find women's collaboration by using the recent technology in Afghanistan?
AFA: Many young female students use the Internet as a source of information. Also many women are working with computer in governmental offices and NGOs in Afghanistan. Some females use the Internet to join the social networking platforms such as Facebook, Twitter. It seems that the technology is a useful and attractive tool for women to be involved more in social affairs than before.
FA: How can women be empowered in Afghanistan through social and digital media?
AFA: Technology will help women to communicate with people around the world. As a result, women will not be restricted as much as they used to be. It also allows women to work without facing outside problems and more importantly they would earn money and become financially independent which is an important part of empowering women.

This compelling wine combines crisp and clean flavorus with concentration and length. Aromas of ripe pears, orange blossom, white peaches and a whiff of jasmine awaken the senses. Fiano Minutolo gives pure, ripe peach aromas to this blend. Falanghina adds citrus blossom to the nose, and body and minerality to round out the length on the palate. Greco is a wonderful grape that brings structure to the blend.
The A Mano Fiano and Greco vineyards are situated in Valle d'Itria, in the heart of Puglia. The valley provides a constant airflow from the Adriatic sea to the warmer interior regions of Puglia. The fresh breezes lower the night time temperatures, encouraging the development of the lovely perfumes in the grapes. The soils are well-drained on a soft rock base. This wine is made from the Fiano Minutolo clone from Puglia, which resembles Riesling or Viognier, as opposed to the Fiano di Avellino which is used to make the DOC wines from Campania.

I was struck by a car while directing traffic at night for work. My head shattered the windshield and I was thrown 30 feet and landed face down on the road. I was in the hospital for three weeks. I was discharged at 10:30 and in Dr. Nick's office 4 hours later. I complained of double vision , dizziness and loss of balance. Immediately after Dr. Nick treated me my vision was much clearer and my balancemuch better! I firmly believe Chiropractic is the answer to many ailements, whether minor or serious.
I was in Alliance Hospital for what they thought was spinal menengitis and given a spinal tap. I spent a few days in the hospital with severe headaches that only were relieved by lying down. They eventually sent me home stating I had a headache. My neck was killing me so I called Dr. Simionides office for the first time. I thought I needed an adjustment due to my uncomfortable hospital stay. After a couple visits Dr. Simionides realized that spinal fluid was probably leaking from the spinal tap. He called the hospital to make all the arrangements to have a blood patch done. Nobody thought of this while I was in the hosptal. After having the blood patch I began feeling better that evening. Dr Simionides went above and beyond to care for me. The staff was warm and caring and willing to accomadate my immediate needs.
I suffered from migraines and due to anxiety and stress started having neck pain. I would wake up with neck pain and headaches. The pain made me feel sluggish and sort of depressed. After a couple visits with Dr. Simionides I noticed my pain was going away and I was able to sleep good with no headaches. I now feel more energetic and can enjoy the everyday things I used to do pain free!!
I've suffered from hay fever most of my life. This year is amazing! I have no symptoms thanks to the treatment I received at Dr. Simionides office. Painless, noninvasive and drug free! I am ecstatic to have found this treatment and recommend it to everyone.
I had severe back pain, osteoporosis and osteoarthritis. I was in constant pain and unable to do routine daily activities for over 2 1/2 years. I felt like the tin man unable to walk, bend or even sleep for more than 2-3 hours a night. Everyone at Carnation Chiropractic Center was so nice from my initial phone call. Dr. Simionides listened to my many complaints along with my initial history, exam and x-rays. He went over my results and started treatment. I had unbelievable results by the third visit! I was pain free and able to move without pain. The best part is not taking prescription pain pills which I was taking at maximum doses and still in pain. If you suffer from any of these conditions I strongly recommend you see Dr. Simionides as soon as possible.
My daughter had constant stomach and intestinal pain and always cried uncontrollably after eating for long periods of time. Lots of stress and not much sleep for mom and dad. Dr. Simionides treated Sophia for several food allergies and the results have been amazing! Sophia is now a great sleeper and such a content and happy baby. Mom is grateful to have a baby who isn't crying and in pain. Sophia is no longer affected by dairy, eggs, sugar, wheat or other things! Results have been immediate and continued to improve with each treatment. Worth every penny and every minute!
I had constant achy to severe shoulder pain and weakness associated with playing college volleyball. Celebrex and ibuprofen were needed to allow me to play. I also experienced mid back, neck and low back pain. After treatment by Dr. Simionides my shoulder feels great with little to no pain in the back. The neuromuscular technique on the shoulder worked great. the staff is very friendly and outgoing. They always seem to remember whats going on and are interested in my well being.
I started having allergies the second year I lived in Ohio. The allergies got worse over the years. I had taken over the counter allergy medicines, prescription medication for a year and even shots! Nothing had worked until I came to Dr. Nick. This is the first spring that I feel normal.
After having surgery for a herniated disc many years ago I exercised my lower back but refrained from lifting more than 35lbs. In spite of the exercises my lower back became more and more painful. I had difficulty rising from a sitting or lying position and also had pain when walking. After my first visit to Dr. Simionides I experienced great relief. I am now pain free and can move about without any problems. Excellent office and therapy environment with a knowledgeable staff.
I had trouble breathing for two years and was on Advair and Proair to keep my breathing under control. I was also using rescue inhalers three times a day. I was also extremely tired and had blood work, stess testing and an EKG performed. Everything came back normal. After allergy testing and treatment with Dr. Simionides I have been off all of my medications. My energy levels have come back and I feel better than I have felt in years! Everyone at the office is friendly and helpful. Dr. Nick is always willing to answer my questions. The office is always very clean and comfortable.
On October 4th I lifted an ice machine and sprained my neck and upper back. I had to continue working or my boss wouldn't be able to go to the U.S. National Horse Show. Three weeks later I was finally able to go to the Doctor. I was in so much pain it brought tears to my eyes. After several visits I was finally able to wake up with no headaches or back pain. Everyone at the office is so helpful and understanding of my situation. You feel comfortable and relaxed which helps in the process of healing.
I had narrowing of the knees and was in four auto accidents in 2000. I had major knee pain and was unable to walk or run any distance. It was difficult to walk up or down steps and bend at the knees. I had low energy levels, low activity levels and feeling old at 37. After treatment with Dr. Simionides I can walk, squat and go up and down stairs with ease. I have increased energy levels and sleeping better at night. I am a new person and would recommend Dr. Simionides to everyone I know.

After India's third ODI against England at Lord's, Jhulan Goswami will retire from international cricket, according to a report
Jhulan Goswami, a seasoned bowler, will end his career in international cricket, according to a report on ESPNcricinfo on Saturday. According to the report, Goswami will retire after the third and final One-Day International between India and England on September 24 at Lord's. The three-match T20I series will kick off the Indian women's cricket team's visit to England next month on September 10. A three-match ODI series will then follow, beginning on September 18.
Harmanpreet Kaur will serve as the team's captain in all formats, according to the BCCI's Friday announcement of the Indian selection for the England visit. After recently missing the series against Sri Lanka in July owing to fitness difficulties, Jhulan made a comeback for the ODI series. Additionally, according to the article, Goswami had a conversation with the team management about looking to the future and developing a pool of young fast bowlers who could play in several forms.
The fast bowler last participated in a Test on October 21 and hasn't played in a T20I since 2018. According to a BCCI representative who spoke to ESPNcricinfo, the board wished to provide her a "proper goodbye." Jhulan made her India debut in an ODI match in January 2002 against England. With 352 wickets across all forms, she will retire as the most wicket-taker in women's international cricket. She has participated in 12 Tests, 68 T20Is, and 201 ODIs since making her debut. With 252 dismissals, she also holds the record for most wickets in the 50-over format.

As detailed in this Apache POI FAQ Entry:

Can I mix POI jars from different versions?
No. This is not supported.
All POI jars in use must come from the same version. A combination such as poi-3.11.jar and poi-ooxml-3.9.jar is not supported, and will fail to work in unpredictable ways.

You need to ensure that all your POI jars are from the same version, and then things will work fine

Assessment of fetal well-being in cattle by ultrasonography in normal, high-risk, and cloned pregnancies.
This study determined ultrasonographic parameters of fetuses and uterine adnexa in late pregnancy in normal, cloned, and high-risk pregnancies in relation to perinatal and neonatal outcome. Ten cows with normal pregnancies (CONTROL, mean pregnancy length 273 d), 10 sick cows with potentially compromised pregnancies (HIGH-RISK, mean pregnancy length 267 d), and 10 heifers with cloned pregnancies (CLONED, mean pregnancy length 274 d) were examined at more than 260 d of gestation. There was no difference in mean fetal heart rates among the groups. The cloned calves were heavier (57 ± 8 kg) than calves from CONTROL group (36 ± 7 kg), and calves from HIGH-RISK group (37 ± 13 kg) (P = 0.003). The diameter of the thoracic aorta was positively correlated (R = 0.62) with fetal birth weight in the CONTROL group (P = 0.01). Fetal activity was not associated with survival. The results suggest that transabdominal ultrasonographic assessment of the fetal well-being may serve as a potential tool for evaluation of the fetoplacental unit.

Just was on Wal-mart website. Tried to order over 6 different shotshell pouches.
All came up with a note saying could not ship or pick up that item in my zip code.
(Connecticut) Tried another zip code, same disclaimer. Why is this ?

Laws change often and they dont want to be held liable for shipping a product that is illegal in a locality.
conn has really got a clamp on retail incoming gun related...regardless if its just a pouch. youre not dealing with humans. youre dealing with computers programmed by anti gun liberals.
It's just ridiculous that they sell ammo, but not a harmless pouch to put it in. It's not even like selling a magazine, that may be illegal(due to capacity) in some jurisdictions . But apparently Wal-Mart has no issue with shipping a shooting vest to Connecticut. No logic whatsoever .
its the people in positions to make policy. its hit or miss.


Σ 1664, the arrow at the left of this photo, streaks toward M104, the Sombrero Galaxy, which can't be missed at the right! (STScI photo, east and west reversed. Click on image for a larger view).
Well …….. it hasn't quite reached the Sombrero yet, but — DUCK! — it's on the way!
The wonders of the heavens will never ever cease to amaze me and daze me. I thought I'd had a peek at the peak of perfection when I spied Σ 1659 at the heart of the dual triangles of Corvus (also known as the Stargate) — and then I came across Haas's reference to Σ 1664 and M104, better known as the Sombrero Galaxy. And as amazing as this multiple star/asterism/galaxy is, what's even more amazing is that it lies just a few photons from the dueling Corvus triangles. In the 8×50 finder I was using to star hop from Σ 1659, it's easily seen as a rather tight pair of stars, provided of course you're looking for it — which I wasn't, since at the time I was intent on hopping farther west to that other triangle in Corvus, Σ 1604.
There are several invisible roads leading to Σ 1664 and M104, shown at the center of this chart. (Stellarium screen image with labels added, click on the chart for a larger view).
The northern border of Corvus barely runs beneath M104, so it could just as easily have been a Corvian cap as a Virgo sombrero. And you'll find several stellar roads that lead to it. If you look closely at the chart above, you'll see M104/Σ 1664 lies slightly west of a line that runs from Algorab to Theta (θ) Virginis, favoring the Algorab side of the mid-point of that line. You could also start at Spica, leap past 49 Virginis to Psi (ψ) Virginis, then turn to the southwest, directing your aim at Gienah, and come to a stop about a third of the way along that line at M104 or Σ 1664.
you could do what I did, and just make the very short hop to M104 from Σ 1659 (middle right of the above chart) — which if you haven't seen it, is well worth taking a look at — and even if you have, it definitely warrants another lingering look.

After a bit of hopping around to ogle a few gems in Corvus with my Celestron four inch refractor, I made my first short jump from Σ 1659 to Σ 1664 and the Sombrero on the 18th of May. Even with a waning moon at about eighty percent of full just starting over the horizon, I could still see M104 with no problem at all. Using a 14mm Radian, which gave me 71x and a field of view of .83 of a degree, I was able to squeeze both M104 and the arrow asterism into the same field of view. The "CD" pair of Σ 1664, which is the tightest and also the faintest of the pairs of stars that make up this multiple, gave me a bit of trouble due to some haze and the rapidly brightening sky, but with a combination of persistence and averted vision, I managed to pry them apart. The next night, when I pointed my six inch f/10 refractor at them — under darker skies and less haze — they were no problem at all. I could even detect a reddish-orange tint in the 7.8 magnitude primary — but nary a hint in the other three stars was to be had.
While Σ 1664 and its arrow were holding down the west corner of the eyepiece, the Sombrero was spinning at the opposite side. And a thing of beauty it was, too, in both the four and the six inch refractors. Mainly what I saw was a pale, glowing oval shape with a slight pulse to it — which was due to the earth's atmosphere, not the galaxy. In the six inch I even had a glimpse of the dust lane that runs through the middle of this huge galaxy, which is classified as somewhere between a spiral and an elliptical. Amazingly, an estimated 2000 globular clusters surround the halo of M104, of which about 1200 have been identified. The distance to the Sombrero is still not fixed — estimates range from 28 million light years to 50 million light years, with the most recent of them leaning toward the lower figure. Regardless of the true distance, considering that the primary of the Σ 1664 complex lies 1315 light year from us ….. well, it puts some perspective on the perception of the image in the eyepiece.
And before we leave, how about one more quick look?
That arrow pointed at M104 also points in the opposite direct to Σ 1649. (Stellarium screen image with labels added, click on the chart to enlarge).
That arrow pointed at M104 also points in the opposite direction to another pair of stars.
If you follow the arrow's shaft two degrees to the west, skirting just to the north of an arcing trio of ninth magnitude stars and skimming south of 8.3 magnitude HIP 61255, you'll find yourself looking at a pair of stars that are slightly brighter than all but one of the four stars that make up Σ 1664.
East and west reversed to match refractor view. Click for a larger image.
Using my 60mm f/15 mounted on the six inch refractor, the two stars were barely separated in a 20mm TV Plössl (45x). The haze was again smothering the photons fighting to make their way into the 60mm lens, so it was more a case of lack of light making its way to the lens, as opposed to testing the optical limits of the Carton lens in the scope.
There are two ways to find your way to Σ 1682. The first — if you're scope is still pointed at Σ 1649 — is to return to Σ 1664 and M104(making sure not to get caught between the head of the arrow and the galaxy!) — and move northeast about three degrees toward Psi (ψ) Virginis, using the second chart above.
Our final two stars are shown on this chart. The one we're looking at now, Σ 1682, is at the far right; and the next one, SHJ 162 lies just to the west of beautiful blue-white Spica. (Stellarium screen image with labels added, click to enlarge).
Or, using the chart at the left, start at Spica — pausing a few moments to allow it's beautiful bluish-white first magnitude light to saturate the lenses of your eyepiece and your eye — and move west, with a slight bias to the north, to fifth magnitude 49 Virginis.
Then, with a slight leveling off, continue west for about the same distance, and Σ 1682 should slip into view in a low power eyepiece, which is what it did in my 18mm Radian.
In my six inch f/10 refractor, the primary was yellow-white at 84x, and as usual, the 9.7 magnitude of the secondary was too faint for me to make a determination — in other words, no confirmation of the "lucid purple." The "C" component was also easy to pick out in the six inch refractor, but again, no color. Strangely enough, both Haas and Smyth make no mention of that one, even though it's not any more difficult than it appears in the photo below.
NGC 4742 is at the lower right in this STScI photo of Σ 1682. Click on the photo for a larger view.
My 60mm f/15 refractor at 45x had to fight the haze again, but with averted vision I was able to pick out that dim secondary. Haas viewed this one with a 60mm refractor at 35x, and apparently under much better conditions: "Striking contrast! A pearly white star with a ghostly, ethereal presence close beside it." Under more transparent skies, that sounds like it should fit this one perfectly.
Both Haas and Smyth also seem to have missed the lurking gray shadow at the south-east corner of the eyepiece which is NGC 4742, an 11.3 magnitude lenticular shaped galaxy. It seems to get very little mention in the galactic literature, at least from what I could find in my search for information on its size and distance. At any rate, it's not alone — 13th magnitude NGC 4760 lies about twenty arcminutes east of it, and you'll also find 12th magnitude NGC 4781 another twenty arcminutes to the east. So if you're using six inches or more of aperture under dark skies, don't be surprised to see a couple of other faint apparitions nearby. This area of Virgo is rich with galactic beauty.
And then there's the mysteriously named SHJ 162, which is easily found two degrees west of Spica. A look at the chart above will show it's the third of a slightly curved line of four seventh magnitude stars, starting with 62 Virginis and ending at HIP 64378.
The letter designation, SHJ, is a reference to a catalog of 380 pairs of double stars which resulted from the combined efforts of Sir John Herschel (1792-1871) and Sir James South (1785-1867) in 1824 — you might also see this double referred to with the letters Sh instead of SHJ.
East and west also reversed here to match the refractor view. Click … to … enlarge.
This pair is ideal for a 60mm refractor, and in fact, probably looks best at that aperture because of the wide spacing. At least that was my opinion of it after comparing the 45x view in the 60mm f/15 to the 84x view in the six inch f/10, although the larger aperture did give me the ability to see more color — yellow in the primary and white in the secondary.
There is also a BC pairing here, which consists of 8.2 magnitude "B" and its 13th magnitude companion, "C." It lies 66.7 arcseconds from "B" at a position angle of 136 degrees, according to figures from 1999 in the Washington Double Star Catalog. I didn't see it, however, but with less haze it should be visible in a six inch refractor.
And ….. there's more. The primary also has a 9.1 magnitude companion, "a", located 0.6 arcseconds away at a position angle of 132 degrees. And I didn't see it either — it's a bit too closely spaced for my seeing-challenged sea level location. This pair is designated "Aa" and goes by the name Rst 3829, named for Richard Alfred Rossiter (1886-1977) — and it's just one of the 5534 doubles he is credited with having discovered. (Information on both South and Rossiter comes from the Webb Society Deep-Sky Observer's Handbook, Volume 1: Double Stars (Enslow), 1986, Second edition).
So this is not quite the simple star it appears to be in the eyepiece of my 60mm refractor, being essentially a quadruple star with one name assigned to one half of it and another name to the other half.
But there's always more than meets the eye when you're ferreting faint photons out of the sky.
Which brings this star-hopping and star-splitting tour to a close. Next time out we'll work our way north to Porrima's neighborhood, provided I can tear myself away from it's current close encounter with Saturn.
Adios, amigos ……….. and Clear Skies!
Thanks for another great post, full of new targets to keep me busy. Just "got" the lovely equilateral triple last night from your previous post plus the "stargate". As i can only find targets by star -hoping rather than hopping , i do appreciate your detailed diagrams and directions. regards, rich.
Rich, those stars in Corvus should be a bit easier from your location than they are mine — should be quite a sight I would think with less haze to gaze through. The view of the Sombrero and Σ1664 ought to be something to see, too.
Hope your star-hoping weather has improved since this past winter!
Yes John, the stars are maybe 5 to 10 degrees higher in that ESE to SW direction and i don`t suffer too often from haze. Mainly just clouds or clear and sometimes both. After checking Porrima and Saturn to see how high i can push the power-200x- is quite often showing a sharp view which gives a definite hairline split on Porrima, i like to use a wide angle 38x e.p. together with my astigmatism-correcting specs. and hunt down as many of your targets that i can remember at that power. Obviously i have to up the mag. sometimes but really like that e.p. So far the Sombrero does not match S 1664 but might repay a little more effort on my part-maybe tonight! Hope you get clear and steadier skies,regards, rich.
Update on the hat with an arrow (nearly) in it. Tried last night to Observe rather than just see-as per the ref. to S. Holmes. Got a lot more out of the "hat"-was a more horizontal than vertical fuzzy.Sometimes obvious directly. More specific result on S1664. Saw the "C" star direct. Averted vision also showed it well.Might have detected the "D" star as a flitting ghost with averted vision.Could easily be wishful imagination as it is right on the limit or above for an 80mm. Anyway the Arrow is now a real 5star sight. Have switched from a 2″ dialectric (Burgess) diagonal to a 1.25″ prism (Baader) and generally seem to get the faint stars directly where before it was only with averted vision (or zilch). Thanks again for the latest "shopping list". Many regards, rich.

A consultant to the communist-led National Democratic Front of the Philippines (NDFP) was arrested, along with an elderly priest, shortly after the government announced the dissolution of the government's peace negotiating panel.
Renante Gamara, 61, was arrested on Wednesday afternoon by dozens of soldiers and police officers who stormed the home of retired priest Arturo Joseph Balagat, 72, where he was staying as a guest in Imus City, Cavite province. The two are longtime friends.
Gamara was the fifth NDFP consultant arrested since President Duterte signed Proclamation No. 360 in November 2017 terminating peace talks with the NDFP, which represented the Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP) and its armed wing, the New People's Army (NPA).
Earlier on Wednesday, the government said it terminated on Monday the appointment of Labor Secretary Silvestre Bello III as head of the government peace panel along with others on his team—Hernani Braganza, Angela Librado-Trinidad, Rene Sarmiento and Antonio Arellano.
"It shows the government is truly no longer interested in peace talks," said Gamara's daughter, Miki, 29.
In a phone interview on Thursday, Director Guillermo Eleazar, chief of the National Capital Region Police Office, said a warrant had been issued by Judge Cynthia Marino-Ricablanca of Regional Trial Court Branch 27 in Santa Cruz, Laguna province, in connection with violations of the firearms and ammunition law.
Sr. Supt. William Segun, Cavite police chief, said raiders found two grenades and one handgun along with documents and P90,000 in cash at Balagat's house.
"I can tell you that eventually, we will prove that these are all lies," Conti told the Inquirer.
She said the warrant named only Balagat. The priest heads Social Concerns Multipurpose Cooperative, which holds office on a property owned by his family in Barangay Poblacion II-A.
"There was no warrant in the name (of Gamara) whether for old cases or for allegedly new cases," Conti said.
According to the police, Balagat served as parish priest in Cavite before migrating to California in 1992. He returned to the Philippines after his retirement in 2013.
In April 2012, Gamara, a native of Batangas province, was arrested in Las Piñas City but was released on bail to join the 2016 peace negotiations in Oslo, Norway.
Police said he faced charges in the 2006 kidnapping and murder of a soldier, Eriberto Eclavea, in Mauban, Quezon province, and the frustrated murder of a rebel returnee.
Gamara, a former labor union and urban poor organizer, was part of the NDFP's political and constitutional reforms committee during the talks.
"He is a very calm man who wouldn't even spank us (his children), how much more carry grenades," his daughter, Miki, said in a phone interview.
She said her father never went into hiding, as police had claimed, but continued working on the NDFP's proposed comprehensive agreement on social and economic reforms.
Conti said peace consultants were protected by the 1998 Joint Agreement on Safety and Immunity Guarantees even there were no talks.
Duterte abolished the government peace panel in line with his administration's new approach to ending the 50-year-old insurgency by holding local peace negotiations.
His spokesperson, Salvador Panelo, said the creation of "many" localized peace panels "will be even more favorable" to the rebels.
Presidential peace adviser Carlito Galvez Jr., in a statement on Wednesday, said the local peace panels would include representatives from different sectoral groups, local governments and the military whose presence was essential to the peace negotiations.
Galvez stressed that the participation of local governments in the peace process was crucial to resolving social issues that have been the causes of the insurgency.
In Lucena City, reelectionist Sen. Grace Poe on Thursday expressed hope that Mr. Duterte would form a new government peace panel.
"We're all Filipinos. Our country will not prosper if this fighting will continue," she said.
CPP founding chair Jose Maria Sison said in a statement that the rebels would just have to wait for the next administration to reopen the talks.

Optional Packages provide a great way to share individual jar files among multiple applications. Reusable java classes and third party framework classes are good candidates for deploying as optional packages. In this post I will show how to install and use Optional Packages in Weblogic 10.3.
The first step in the process is to bundle a reusable Java class as a Jar file. To keep things simple, I will create a simple String Utility class.
As you can see, the MANIFEST.MF file holds the information about the library such as name and version. The next step is to package the application into a jar file.
Select the defaults on the next page and hit Finish. Restart the server for the changes to take effect.
Modify application's code to start using the StringLib library. Even though Optional Packages are not deployed along with the application, you still might need them in your application's class path during development. Maven users can do this by changing the jar dependency to provided in their pom.xml file.
Download stringlib.jar and demo war file along with source code here.

it is not so obvious from WebLogic documentation that one needs to "Install" a second version of the Optional Package (say, with Implementation-Version: 1.0.1.0). Then you "update" the web application and it will pick up the later version of the OP-JAR.
"Updating" the Optional Package JAR does not work since WL complains about missing internl structure (only EAR, WAR, EJB-JAR allowed).
For "Java EE Shared Libraries", it is "Install" that does not work ("name taken" message). Here, you need to go for "Update" which will also ask you whether you want to re-deploy the depending modules.
But beware – NoClassDefFoundErrors are likely to appear (say, EAR with MDB accessing optional package classes). Still fighting class loader hell here, but liberal use of MANIFEST.MF/Class-Path: lines seem to help a bit.
I am getting NoClassDefFoundErrors when trying to reference the optional package from an EJB inside an EAR. You mentioned Class-Path helped. Can you elaborate a bit?

When will The Last Kingdom season five be released on Netflix? – The Sun
THE Last Kingdom set off into its fourth season on April 26, to the delight of many fans.
As viewers become more engrossed with the show as it progresses, many are wondering if there will be a season five in the series.

When will The Last Kingdom season 5 be released on Netflix?
Netflix has not said that they will be releasing a season five of The Last Kingdom, at this present time.
This doesn't mean that there won't be an announcement regarding a possible season five soon.
When season three of the show came out in November 2018, Netflix didn't announce season four's release until a month later.
Seeing as there is a high demand for the show, there is no reason why Netflix will not produce a season five for The Last Kingdom.
Many production studios have been closed due to coronavirus, so if Netflix do decide to go ahead with another season, it will likely not be for quite some time.
What happened in season 4?
Each season is loosely based on Bernard Cornwell's, The Saxon Stories, which is a series of novels..
Season four adapts the tale of The Pagan Lord and The Empty Throne, the seventh and eighth novels in series.
It begins after King Alfred (David Dawson) dies, along with his dream of a united England.
After his death, the country becomes even more divided than ever, as the kingdoms of Mercia and Wessex continue to compete for power.
The season ends with a truce and a new feud after the Danish capture Winchester, making a move after King Edward's death.
This dramatic turn of events, leaves it up to Uhtred Ragnarson (Alexander Dreymon) to concoct a plan and save the city.
How can I watch The Last Kingdom?
You can currently watch all seasons of The Last Kingdom by streaming it on Netflix, or buying it as a download on Amazon.
Season four of the show was officially released on Netflix on Sunday, April 26, 2020.
Just like season three, there will be 10 episodes available to watch.

Motion vector (MV) estimation plays an important role in motion compensated video coding. In this research, we first examine a stochastic MV model which enables us to exploit the strong correlation of MVs in both spatial and temporal domains in a given image sequence. Then, a new fast stochastic block matching algorithm (SBMA) is proposed. The basic idea is to select a set of good MV candidates and choose from them the one which satisfies a certain spatio-temporal correlation rule. The proposed algorithm reduces matching operations to about 2% of that of the full block matching algorithm (FBMA) with only 2% increase of the sum of absolute difference (SAD) in motion compensated residuals. The excellent performance of the new algorithm is supported by extensive experimental results.

The Boys in the Band Ending, Explained
Diksha Sundriyal
Netflix's 'The Boys in the Band' follows the events of one day, where the story revolves around a birthday party, with nine people coming and going out of focus. The period drama focuses on the gay scene of the sixties, centering on themes like self-loathing, closeted sexuality, conflict over monogamy, and internalized homophobia. With an all-star cast, it serves an entertaining watch that is dipped in sassy one-liners and heart-breaking realizations. The ending leaves it at a somewhat hopeful but uncertain point. Here's what it means. SPOILERS AHEAD
Set in 1968, 'The Boys in the Band' takes place on Harold's birthday. Michael is prepping for the party, when Donald, with whom his relationship status is not set, comes to his house. Things get a little tense when Michael receives a call from his school friend, Alan, who asks to visit him and talk about something important. Because Alan doesn't know that Micheal is gay and that there is to be a party with five other gay men in it, he tries to push their meeting to the next day. One by one, the guests arrive, and Alan's unexpected entrance increases the tension in an already heated atmosphere.
Is Alan Gay?
While 'The Boys in the Band' takes place over the course of one day, it gives us enough information about every character to find out their equation with one another and where they currently stand in their relationships. One of the things that the film does not resolve is the nature of Alan's sexuality. It leaves things open for interpretation, and here's what one could conclude from the clues left by the filmmakers. Alan was not supposed to come to Harold's birthday party, but when he called Michael out of the blue, it looked like he had something very important to talk about. He seemed very distressed in the first phone call, but the second time around, he seemed more composed. And even though he tells Michael that he has to be elsewhere, he arrives at the party and doesn't leave even when he seems troubled by the people there. It isn't until he talks to his wife again that he gets some sense of clarity and leaves the party. All that happens in between leaves us wondering whether he is closeted, as Michael said, or is he straight?
Here's what things look like. When Alan called Michael, he was distressed because he had decided to divorce his wife, had left her in Washington, and come to New York. It was one of the things that he wanted to discuss with Michael, but by the time they had their second phone call, he had resolved not to go forward with the divorce after all. In the end, when he calls his wife, it is to assure himself of that decision. As to why did he come to the party anyway might have something to do with his feelings for Michael. When Alan is introduced to Harold, the latter reacts as if it were someone he had heard a lot about. From their conversations, we deduce that Harold and Michael go a long way, and Harold knows him much better than anyone else. Alan's presence makes Michael conscious of himself, and he tries to keep up the facade of being a straight person- the way Alan always saw him. He is concerned when Emory doesn't tone down his flamboyance and is disturbed when Alan attacks Emory. Michael's behavior makes it look like he has a crush on Alan, and almost as if Alan is the person he would call to win the party game he had concocted. The way he lashes out at Alan about Justin seems much more personal for Michael, and his heartbreak is resonant when he discovers that Alan didn't call Justin, but his wife. Alan didn't come out of the closet, as Michael had expected, and went back to the life he had always had.
What all of this says about Michael and Alan's relationship is that they had been close when they were in school. Michael was in love with Alan, and when Justin told him that they'd had sex, Michael thought that when eventually Alan comes out, they might have a chance together. But time passed, Alan continued to be a heterosexual, and Michael moved on, unable to love anyone else, something that Harold chides him about. At the party, Michael uses the game to force Alan to accept his sexuality and his rant about Justin is actually about his own feelings for him. But, none of it proves that Alan is gay. He repeatedly tells Michael that he is straight and that Justin lied about their sexual history. What does give us a hint about his closeted life is the little things like him finding Hank attractive (something that a straight man wouldn't normally say about another, especially in the 60s), his persistence to see the party through even though he behaves towards the course of events in a very distasteful manner, and the way he explodes at Emory when the latter insinuates that he is gay. But again, none of it is concrete proof of what he actually feels. The violence with Emory could simply be because of his fragile straight-male ego that can't bear to have its masculinity challenged, especially by a "pansy" such as Emory. However, nothing is absolute proof for or against his gayness.
The festivities of the party end with a downer as every single person in the room is forced to confront their complicated feelings. Bernard can't cope with the fact that he called the man he loved and talked to his mother. Emory's effort to profess his love to his high-school crush ends bitterly when the person on the other end refuses to acknowledge him. Larry and Hank address the complicated status of their relationship, but also tell each other that they love them. Alan calls his wife and lets her know that he is coming home. Harold leaves the party with the cowboy, and after telling Michael how sad and pathetic he is, he tells him that they'll talk the next day. After breaking down over the events of the party, Michael decides to go for a walk and tells Donald to turn off the light before leaving.
In the end, we find Emory and Bernard at a diner, where Bernard seems to have sobered up and is calmed down. Larry and Hank decide to make their relationship work, despite the differences, and have sex. Donald is still at Michael's apartment reading a book. Michael comes out of the church, strolling along the street, eventually breaking into a run. Where is Michael running to? For hopeless romantics, who noticed Michael's longing looks for Donald and the undeniable heat between them, it looks like Michael is finally breaking out of his self-hatred and has decided to give a chance to himself with Donald. For all we know, it could be the start of their romance, with Michael finally finding a reason to settle down in one place.
Another explanation for this could be that Michael knows that Alan is still in town. He hasn't left the city yet and Michael is probably trying to catch him before he leaves. Perhaps, to move forward from him, Michael wants to confess his feelings for Alan, no matter if he gets a positive response from him. Even if Alan is gay, it doesn't look like he will be taking the same road that Hank took. In any case, Michael would have one thing resolved in his life. It is either this or that Michael saw one of his bill collectors down the street, and running away was his way of dodging them.

Mediatonic announces new Leamington Spa studio
Vikki Blake 4th February 2020	Business News
Mediatonic is opening a new studio in Leamington Spa.
Creating 60 new jobs, the new studio – which was announced at Interactive Futures, a two-day event held at the Royal Spa Centre over the weekend – aims to have the 60-strong team in place by 2022, and says it has "an emphasis on filling art and engineering roles first".
"Mediatonic has a presence in many of the largest gaming hubs in the UK, including London, Brighton and Guildford, so we're delighted to have the chance to make positive connections in what is arguably the UK's capital of video game development, Leamington Spa," said Phil Warner, head of art at Mediatonic.
"Cultural growth is all about sharing – and I can't wait to see how the Leamington Spa community and Mediatonic will bring out the best in each other."
Mediatonic is one of the UK's largest independent developers, employing 220+ developers across sites in London, Brighton, and Madrid.
Further to Ukie's Regional Impact Report and research conducted by the organisers of Interactive Futures, video games companies within the Leamington Spa area expect to open up 500 new jobs in the next two years, offering "huge opportunities for young people and graduates in the Midlands region and beyond" as one of the UK's largest games hubs.
The vacancies expected to arise include opportunities for artists, designers, producers, programmers, and engineers, although the range of careers on offer extends beyond technical and creative disciplines, too, including marketing, HR, administration, community support, and more.
"Leamington Spa is representative of the 'roots' of the UK video games community, an industry that contributes around £2.8 billion in GVA to the UK economy," said Sarah Windrum, chair of the CWLEP Digital Creative Business Group and board director at the CWLEP. "The region boasts some of the 'godfathers' of the global games sector and it is testament to the talent and creativity of the area that we are continuing to attract businesses to the region – all keen to benefit from the buzz that Leamington Spa's games circle has to offer.
"It's rare to hear of such a flurry of new job opportunities in one place, so the news that here in Leamington Spa we'll have up to 500 new vacancies is great for the region and the local community."

Back in the day, making a backup of our computer's contents required spending hours dealing with tape drives and/or endless CDs. These days, everything is a tad easier courtesy of DVDs and zip drives. However, is there perhaps an even simpler solution?
Yes, there is! It lies in cloud storage technology. Imagine the Internet is a cloud, and imagine that this cloud contains everything on your computer. Not only that, but this cloud automatically backs up new files the moment they're created. And the best part of all this is that you can access this cloud at anytime and from anywhere.
Sound interesting? Well, let us introduce you to LiveDrive!
LiveDrive is a 5+ year-old company that provides cloud storage solutions to over half a million customers across the globe. Since its inception in 2008, it has grown by leaps and bounds. Not only that, but it has received awards like the Computer Active Best Only Backup Buy It award and the Web User Gold award.
It offers a slew of services, including online file storage, file sharing, file syncing, Facebook integration, online editing and more. It offers two main forms of service — personal service and business service. We recommend going with a personal solution, but we'll definitely cover both personal and business options.
LiveDrive offers three personal solutions, including a Backup solution for $6/month, a Briefcase solution for $12/month and a Pro Suite solution for $19/month. The amazing thing is that each one is available with an absolutely free 14-day trial. We recommend taking advantage of the trial to get a feel for the company's services. Note also that taking advantage of the trial does not require submitting credit card information!
This simple solution offers unlimited backup space for a single computer. It works in the background and constantly backs up your content so that you can access and/or retrieve it at anytime.
You can add additional computers for $1.50 extra per month. Or you can add a network drive or NAS for $8.00 extra per month.
You can access the files on your online drive from any computer with a Web browser. You may also access them from iOS, Android and Windows Mobile devices.
You can directly stream audio and video content from your drive. We really like this feature, because it makes all your media content very easily accessible.
You can restore deleted files within a 30-day period. Plus, LiveDrive keeps previous versions of regular undeleted files accessible to you.
All data transfers into and out of LiveDrive's cloud servers are encrypted with military-grade AES-256 technology to ensure maximum safety.
It's not a bad service, but we do wish they offered a free alternative. However, it's not bad, especially considering you get an unlimited quantity of storage space for just $6 a month!
You can directly edit documents and/or update photos by just logging into the cloud server from any compatible Web browser.
You can add as much additional space as you need at a very fair rate of $8.00 extra per month. That's a really nice price for what you get.
You can automatically share files on social network accounts or link them to your friends and family.
Last but not least, you can email files to your drive.
We really like this solution. Yes, you don't get the auto backups, but do you really even need them? The nice thing about this is being able to so easily sync content. It makes life a lot easier for people who travel a lot and are constantly on different computers and devices.
This is the ultimate solution. It functions more like the Backup solution, except that it offers unlimited online backup storage for five PCs. Also, it entitles you to 5TB of "Briefcase" space. We recommend this very affordable option for families. It provides all the backup services you need, as well as that huge 5TB of space for keeping all your media files easily accessible from any and all devices.
The Pro Suite option also lets you access your files using advanced tools like FTP or WebDAV.
The Business options are also available with a 14-day trial. However, fees go up to $37 a month for Express service and $135 a month for Standard service. The goal of these services is to backup office computers and also make office files easily accessible for employees on the go.
This service offers three user accounts and a total of 2TB of online space. It adds a few notable features that are not present in the personal options. For one, you get to access the drive using more advanced tools like FTP, SFTP and WebDAV. Plus, you can brand the drive with your company logo. It is otherwise equivalent to the Personal options. However, you cannot expand the quantity of space or the number of user accounts. Those are completely locked up, unless of course you upgrade to the Standard service.
You can set up 'Team Folders' for collaborative work.
You can set up your own portal at companyname.livedrive.com.
You can add additional users for $11.75/month.
You can add additional space at $6.25/month per TB.
You can set user permissions.
Obviously, you only need this if you run a pretty big business. We imagine that the personal solutions will work best for the majority of you.
You need to login to access the support page. Even worse, support is limited to email, as well as a ticket system. The staff usually gets back to you very quickly, but a phone or chat option would be appreciated. Other than that, you get access to a huge 'Knowledgebase' brimming with useful information. The customer service could use some improvement, but it's not horrible. Note also that these services are only available to paid customers.
Overall, we were fairly impressed with LiveDrive. What really got to us is its compatibility. It is compatible with everything: Windows PCs, Macintoshes, Apple iPads, Android phones, iPhones, Windows Mobile phones, etc. Plus, it has apps that let you watch films or listen to songs that are stored on your drive. This makes it extraordinarily convenient for the modern masses, many who would love to be able to just pull up a song or video on their smartphone while they're waiting for a doctor's appointment or whatnot.
We do wish the company offered a free solution. We also wish it provided better support. However, these are definitely not deal breakers, especially considering the fair and equitable rates. We consider $6 to $12 a month to be more than fair, and we are pretty sure you would agree.
With that said, if you want to take advantage of cloud services, we fully recommend you choose LiveDrive! We also recommend that you start with the trial first just to get a hang of things.


A leading German right-wing politician warned Saturday that if the far left wins Greece's elections this weekend, the country's exit from the eurozone "will be only a matter of time."
"If the radical left carries on saying it wants the help of all the other countries in the eurozone but does not offer anything in return, then it will only be a matter of time before Greece exits" the eurozone, said Wolfgang Bosbach, chairman of the interior ministry committee in parliament and a close ally of Chancellor Angela Merkel.
Even without Sunday's elections, Greece is not fit to be a member of the eurozone, the top Christian Democratic Union official said.
"The country's economy lacks dynamism, competitiveness and efficient governance. And billions more aid will not change that fundamentally," he said in excerpts from an interview with Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, to be published in full on Sunday.
He said he did not believe Greece's exit from the eurozone would be decided "in the coming weeks" but that Europe would have to help the country economically during the transition phase.
Greeks on Sunday can either vote against austerity or in favour of a party that is more likely to keep their country in the euro.
The radical left Syriza party's firebrand leader Alexis Tsipras has vowed to tear up the bailout deal that gave Greece a credit lifeline in exchange for steep budget cuts and renegotiate with creditors from scratch.


Where's Weed in Aspen, Colorado? It's found on the weed maps on Colorado's home site, the Denver Daze. Marijuana dispensaries found in the Aspen area may provide access to selections of cannabis strains and edibles as well as hash oils, hit wax, dabs, pipes, bongs, vaporizers, tinctures and more for medical purposes. Many of the medical marijuana dispensaries found on the Daze weed maps also service recreational needs. Look for the smoking happy face with the green cross behind on the map for shops that do both. Traditional dispensaries typically offer a wide range of strains, including numerous types of Indica, Sativa, and Hybrids. When seeking a specific strain high in THC like Cinderella 99, Malawi Gold, or Sour Diesel or high cannabidiol (CBD) strains like Harlequin or Sour Tsunami, the Aspen, Colorado marijuana dispensary with the best buds is on the Denver Daze.

Venezuela's Crude Sales to U.S. Fall in July
Posted by Michelle Howard August 10, 2018
Venezuela's crude exports to the United States declined to 494,400 barrels per day (bpd) in July after rising the prior three months, showing the impact of asset seizures against state-run oil firm PDVSA, according to Thomson Reuters data.
July was the first month crude exports fell below 500,000 bpd since the months of January through March.
U.S. oil producer ConocoPhillips in May began seizing PDVSA's overseas assets in an attempt to collect on a $2 billion arbitration award. Its legal actions have left PDVSA with no access to most of its Caribbean terminals, restricting the company's already dwindling exports.
Most of PDVSA's customers in the United States, where flows of Venezuelan oil have also been affected in the last year by financial sanctions imposed by U.S. President Donald Trump's administration, are now receiving fewer barrels.
In July, 30 cargoes of Venezuelan crude arrived at U.S. ports, compared with 33 in June. The volumes in July were 12 percent lower than the prior month and 22.5 percent below the same month a year earlier, according to the data.
Only two cargoes of Venezuelan crude were shipped last month from the Caribbean island of Aruba, where PDVSA's unit Citgo Petroleum operates an oil terminal. A local court in May temporarily froze inventories and cargoes there at Conoco's request, but weeks later it allowed the U.S. refining subsidiary to resume normal operations at the facility.
No Venezuelan crude has been shipped to the United States since mid-June from Curacao, Bonaire or St. Eustatius, neighboring Caribbean islands that PDVSA has used to refine, store and ship oil, according to the data.
The largest importer of Venezuelan crude in the United States last month was Valero Energy, which has managed to ramp up imports of Venezuelan oil in recent months amid the country's export crisis.
The second largest importer was Citgo.
Even amid declining crude exports, shipments to the United States of Diluted Crude Oil (DCO) made with Venezuelan extra heavy oil and imported naphtha continued rising in July, to 252,820 bpd, suggesting limited output of upgraded crude at Venezuela's main crude producing region, the Orinoco Belt.
PDVSA has limited the damage from the asset seizures by transferring oil between tankers at sea and loading vessels in neighboring Cuba. But the company is fulfilling less than 60 percent of its supply obligations with customers.
