Coastal Living Idea Cottage – October Edition is Soon To Be Out!
Monday was off to a great start, but little did I know that my quick trip to my personal PO Box would make Monday even sweeter! I reached in my box to pull out the long awaited October edition of Coastal Living magazine! I eagerly flipped through the pages to find the 2009 Idea Cottage we, (Structures Building Company) had the privilege of building was now staring me back in the face. Pages 35-55 show how the details were beautifully photographed by Tria Giovan. Tria flew down back in July and we've been holding our breath waiting to see this edition! The Coastal Living staff and local team did an amazing job from start to finish on this entire project, what a great little souvenir to say the least! This edition should hit the newsstands later this week. . . pick it up for some really fun and fresh ideas! Special thanks to Editor in Chief, Lindsey Bierman, Bill McDougald, VP, Southern Progress Homes Group, Nicole Hendrick, Idea Home Manager, and all many others from the Coastal Living team, Melissa Bigner, Freelance Writer for Coastal Living magazine, Tom and Vince Graham, Angie Hranowsky, local interior designer, Historical Concepts, Kerns Landscape Architects, Helen Geer of William Means and her incredible Sales and Marketing team and countless national and local sponsors! Hope you enjoy seeing how all your hard work has paid off!


After a long pause, I'm back with a patch for DriveSort, following a bug report from Jan-Eric (thanks :]). This bug triggered a rampant memory allocation in some cases on disks bigger than 4 GB. The bug is now fixed, and I used this opportunity to add a bit more progress report when opening the directory table, since on big volumes, it stood stuck for a while at 80%.
This version fixes a bug which didn't allow to change the short file name on the settings dialog while in playlist mode.
It also includes the first draft of a SETTINGS.DAT file parser. This file is used on many MP3 Players based on Sigmatel STMP 3410 chip, like the IBead, the JOS or clones to store the user settings. At the moment it only analyses the syntax and outputs a log describing the fields inside the SETTINGS.DAT. This output is accessible through a button in the file properties of files looking like a SETTINGS.DAT on the player.
A future release of DriveSort will most likely enable you to import/export most of your settings (FM Presets, Equalisers, common settings...) between different firmware revisions, and to adjust them manually through a control panel.
It seems v1.211 won't be the last version then.
New in v1.212: Added a file properties dialog allowing to change file attributes (read only, archive, hidden, system) and timestamps (creation, last write, last access), available through the popup-menu for multi selection or doubleclick on single files. To save the changes made using this dialog, save the folder containing the files whose attributes were modified. To cancel the changes, simply don't save the folder before closing the disk.
Whoops, found two of them... One in the physical disk backup code (right button on a HD icon in the open disk dialog, not the same as partition sectors backup in the Disk menu), which didn't allow the backups to start anywhere else than at sector 0. The other one was a minor problem with the dragging code in the file list (Unknown file icon displayed when dragging a folder or a musical file).
I also implemented the MBR Backup / Restore features on the physical disks, it can be useful if you try to make your I-Bead bootable.

It's time politics gives way to an efficient replacement
Chitral .. Often wonder, what is this thing called politics in today's contemporary world. It is not unusual to hear people taunting at one another exclaiming "don't play politics with me" meaning ("don't fool me"). If we think about it cool headedly, we will not be able to justify the role of politics in today's world vis-?-vis it's raison d'?tre or it's relevance.
As a case in point to explain, let us consider as to what are political workers, the driving tools of politics. Isn't it a fact that political workers of any party would strive to bring their party to power and then aspire for the booties of victory in the form of personal gratifications. Which worker of any party works keeping his aim as collective betterment of the country (save the noble very few). All are after individual gains. Isn't this the bitter truth? Why must we blindly follow a system (democracy) that was introduced 2500 years back and which by now has been thrashed to a totally mutilated form.
Now, the world is totally a different playfield compared to 2500 years ago. The concepts, perceptions and everything else is different to what was then. Now we have technology as the most effective game determinant in the world. The major developments in the contemporary world are due to technology, not politics. Whether it be the abundance of energy, the ease of communication through mobile phone, the access of information through internet, the outreach to yonder galaxies, all owe their existence to technology. Politics has nothing to do with them.
The point to ponder is if intelligent people can alter the world through technology and deliver to the world the goodies and the facilities we are enjoying today, can't they govern the world in a sensible manner and make it a better place for human beings? Of course yes!. We need to shed primitive practices like democracy and opt for a new intelligence based system powered by technology. This can be achieved making use of intelligent people by giving them responsibilities through the transparent system of 'Meritocracy'. Let us think out of the box. Let us make the world a better place by using the resources and the opportunities it provides us, intelligence being the foremost. Following a beaten path and expecting change is a folly. Concepts need to be revisited. Let us not be afraid of an honest and fair system where capability shall reign to deliver facilities and goodness to the world. .. CN Editorial, 16 Oct 2017

Junaid Tariq says
Democratic form of government suits those countries where the common man can express their right of vote out of their own independent will. In a country like ours where the popular will is blatantly manipulated to the benefit of the corrupt politicians, meritocracy is the viable option.
Akhlaque Ahmad says
The only thing permanent in this world is 'change' Saudi Arabia had banned women driving for ages on the pretext that it was against Sharia. Few months ago with the stroke of the pen the King suddenly allowed women to drive. When the time for change comes nothing can stop it. A new system whatever it may be but based on logic, justice and merit, to replace democracy has become a must, if the world wants betterment.

Ready Gamer One Podcast
BREAKDOWN!: Nintendo Direct September 13th
September 17, 2018 Dany Best	0 Comments
Now that things have settled down for the nation of Japan on the natural disaster front (for now…), the new Nintendo Direct was released on September 13th with some major news. For those that don't have 40 minutes to spare to watch the whole video and just want notes to skim, here's Hyrule Herald BREAKDOWN of the latest Direct:
The video kicks off with a teaser for development of a Luigi's Mansion 3. The concept of these games are delightful and a fun twist given to everyone's favorite Player 2, so having a third on the way and for the switch is exciting. I only hope they change up the plot just a bit from the last two (fingers crossed for a Daisy appearance).
Nintendo 3DS:
The visually stunning Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn will be coming to the 3DS! Originally developed for the Wii, the 3DS version will include everything from the original game with a few new features and moves to update it for playability on the 3DS. This catches my attention not just for the detail taken to make the title transferable to the 3DS, but in the hopes that other great Wii titles can make their way to handheld systems (CONSOLE ZELDA GAMES PLEASE)
The RPG Mario and Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story is getting a rerelease for the 3DS, this time with an expanded story Bowser Jr's Journey. It includes all the original elements of the game, but adds a new side to the story in the quest to cure the spreading pandemic of the Blorbs: Bowser Jr's. Will he help the cause or create more problems? Either way, like father like son…
Luigi's Mansion is also coming to the 3DS, but the newly added feature rings true to Luigi's legacy: a Player 2! You can play together with a friend if they own the game as well as a green shadowed version of Luigi. Even if only one person owns the game, you can still play boss battles together via infrared. There are also four compatible Amiibo's you can use for different effects. It does have a release date for October 12th. Would make a great Halloween gift!
Thought it's a franchise I know little about, I at least know that Yo-Kai has a big following. So for Yo-Kai fans, hearing that Yo-Kai Watch Blasters has a big update must be ticking your fancy! The update will feature the Moon Rabbit Crew for the title screen, new bonuses, more Yo-Kai and bosses, new missions, new areas, and more, well, everything! Better be prepared, cause the update comes September 27th.
Nintendo Switch:
Splatoon 2 is getting a Version 4 Update, and hopefully part of that update will make it compatible with the Nintendo Cloud in development. The video clip doesn't tell us much, but new battle modes, styles, weapons, and splatfests are headed to the game. Splatfests will be divided into Normal and Pro play categories to help even out the playing field. The downside? Version 4 is going to cost $ on release to those Splatooners interested in getting their ink on.
Just like me, Mega Man turns 30 this year. And to celebrate, Mega Man 11 is coming to Switch on October 2nd. The game play and mechanics are just about the same as the other MM's with a few tweaks to game play and weapons. But this time the sharp, updated graphics and playing with the Switch's controls are what's really new. And of course, the Mega Man Amiibo is compatible for help.
Mario Tennis Aces is getting a refined update September 19th. A co-op challenge is being added to liven up game play and multiplayer when playing online. Prizes include new outfits and color schemes. Birdo, Shy Guys, Koopa Paratroppa, and Petey Piranha will also make their way onto the court for online play. If you're disappointed by not seeing a favorite character in this update, you'll just have to wait until the next big update in June.
Switch will be introducing some Capcom Classics fighting games to the catalog in the Beat'em Up Bundle coming out September 18th. Final Fight, The King Of Dragons, Captain Commando, Knights of the Round, Armored Warriors, Battle Circuit, and Warriors of Fate. Depending on how many controllers you have, up to four players can play on each of the seven titles. You can also play them online! If anything, this shows the strength of Capcom and Nintendo's partnership as well as their remastering abilities. But it also shows Nintendo's relentless want to grip the nostalgia gaming market. This might be a good sign…
New Super Mario Bros is also getting an extension as New Super Mario Bros Deluxe. Toadette and Nabbit will join the crew and add their special abilities to the game play. Nabbit cannot take damage from enemies, and Toadette can, with a power up crown, magically turn into "Peachette" who like Peach can double jump and free fall (because by all cartoon logic, hoop skirts give you the ability to float in the air). Luigi also gets a starring role in some exclusive levels (GO PLAYER 2!). Up to four people can play and online play is available. This one however, won't be ready for Christmas. It comes out January 11th, 2019.
Once exclusive to the Playstation consoles, Katamari Damacy Reroll is not only coming to Switch, but is remastered! If you have never heard of these games, you need to watch someone play on YouTube because they are amazing and fun! Ever wanted to roll the world up in a ball while listening to catchy tunes? NOW YOU CAN ON THE SWITCH! And the Switch controllers are perfect for the job. It also makes two player mode a cinch. No set date for release, but Winter 2018 is not far away.
Let's Go Pikachu and Let's Go Eevee head to the Switch as the second Pokemon title for the system following Pokemon Tekken DX. This one has you explore the classic Kanto region, but with a few new changes. For one, you rely on either Pikachu or Eevee as your main user of HM moves (or special technique as they call them). The game also combines the small interpersonal game play the newer Pokemon games introduced such as petting, feeding, and grooming your companion. What the direct doesn't tell you is that you can transfer Pokemon from your Niantic Pokemon GO account into the game to help build the game's Pokedex! It comes out November 16th. There are also Switch bundle with special edition Pikachu and Eevee art and a Pokeball controller accessory included. Though I would love to play a traditional Pokemon game on a console, I like the looks of this title and hope for the future.
Of all the games I never through Nintendo would support, Diablo 3 Eternal Collection is coming to Switch on November 2nd. All Amiibo's work to summon enemies with exclusive loot and Nintendo also offers Ganondorf styled transmog armor. Update graphics and offering online and offline play with up to three people, this move might lure gamers that prefer heavier subject matter and titles to the family friendly Switch.
Well, the number system had to end sometime. SUPER Mario Party is coming, and be prepared for a more physical kind of party with the sensor controls taking the wheel on many of the new mini games. What's new is that you can connect two Switch systems to get access to Toad's Rec Room. All 80 mini games are new and so are the single player challenge modes. The game is battle ready on October 5th.
Game Freak is heading back to its developing roots and is creating a new RPG for the Switch called Town(working title). This game is certainly not to be confused for a Pokemon title. Though the game features its fair share of monsters, you fight them rather than catch them to protect your village from destruction and protect its mysterious secret. Visual and mechanics wise it looks like Final Fantasy meets Animal Crossing. We'll have to wait to see where they take us as the game won't come out until sometime in 2019.
Cities Skylines, the acclaimed city building and planning game, just came to Switch in its own edition that includes toe downloadable content After Dark and Snowfall. You're in charge of developing your own city in every aspect and detail, right down to the very last pigeon. Have fun playing god!
Damon X Machina looks like Metroid and Metal Gear solid had a mechanized dystopian baby for a brand new kind of game by Nintendo, something that hasn't happen in a LONG time. You and your suit hunt weaponized rogue AI while facing enemies in combat modes and recycle their parts to repair and build yourself up. You can also store weapon you find and build for future use back at your base. You can also explore battlefield on foot without your mech suit (though it looks scary). You can also play co-op and online. No solid release date, however, but should be ready in 2019.
Yoshi get's a new game too in Yoshi's Crafted World. Similar to Kirby's Yarn and Wolly World, the platformer game features fine textured visuals and a creative theme in colorful homemade arts. Paper, paint, and cardboard form a 3D world for your Yoshi to explore. And similar to actual art, you can flip the perspective of certain areas in the game to explore and find hidden goodies. The time taken to create such a detailed and well thought out game is impressive to the highest degree. Be ready for a different kind of Yoshi game in Spring 2019.
Asmodee Games is bringing table top games to the digital world. Three popular games are coming to switch for personal or online game play: Carcassonne, Lord of the Rings The Card Game and Pandemic. Not only are the games formatted for console play, but they also include all of their respective game expansions. More games are in development to be brought to the Switch, including the ever popular Settlers of Catan and… MUNCHKIN!?
Switch is taking no risks on it's empire and as added the Civilization VI to it's ranks. The 2K developed series will be making it's Nintendo debut on November 16th. Like on other consoles and PC, it offers online multiplayer modes up to four people. Create, explore, develop, and defend your world the way you see fit!
Ubisoft takes the helm in bringing back one of our favorite flyers in Starlink: Battle For Atlas. Fox McCloud, Falco Lombardi, Peppy O'Hare, and Slippy return to swoop in and save the Atlas Star System against all enemies, including the usual bad boy Wolf. Barrel Rolls are available October 16th.
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is chuck full of new areas, characters, and roster change ups. Last Direct we heard about King K. Rool from Donkey Kong Country and Simon (SIMON!) of Castlevania fame being added as playable fighters and bringing in character backup from their respective games. But during THIS direct, the slightly unexpected happened. Isabelle from Animal Crossing isn't just assisting the mayor anymore, she's taking on the challenge as a new playable fighter! Not only that, a teaser announcement for Welcome To Animal Crossing followed for a release in 2019.
RPG's are taking storm soon for the Switch. Not only are they getting Xenoblade Chronicles 2: Torna- The Golden Country and The World Ends With you Final Remix, they are also inviting a franchise that was once considered Sony exclusive onboard: Final Fantasy. Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles finally got the remastering it deserved including an online multiplayer mode and arrives in 2019. Final Fantasy 15 Pocket Edition was just released and World of Final Fantasy Maxima arrives November 6th thus year. Switch is also getting some of the remastered classics such as Final Fantasy 7, 9, 10, and 10-2 HD.
Future games were also announced though rather quickly such as Warframe (November 20th), 2K's Fifa 2019, 2k's NBA 2K19, Just Dance 2019, Team Sonic Racing, Lego DC Super Villains, and NBA 2K Playgrounds 2.
The service begins September 18th. The online service offers five features: Online play for competitive or co-op play, NEW Online, Save Data Cloud, Smartphone App, and Special Offers. Online play is available for most titles, even the classic NES games. As I wrote in a previous article, the save cloud works but only for certain titles, so be sure to look them up for updates. The Smartphone App, though promising, will undoubtedly have some bugs to work out on first release. As for Special Offers, it looks like we'll have to wait for another direct to find out about them. Sound good? It's available September 18th. Individual Plans are 3.99 per month, 7.99 for three months, or $20 for a year. This sounds a lot more reasonable than some companies and games with their high premiums and downloadable content charges.
New wireless controllers have been created to play classic NES games. And man, they are riding the nostalgia hard. Basically, they are the classic NES controllers, just with Switch censors. They come in sets of two: one for left and one for right. They attach to the Switch screen just like the other controllers do as well. The cost? US $59.99. Not bad for those longing to feel the divots of those classic red A and B buttons. Pre-purchasing starts on the 18th.
And for those that love Super Smash Bros and are excited for the new game (THAT FEATURES SIMON!), there is a special Super Smash Bros Ultimate bundle coming out in time for Christmas on November 2nd that includes the game and a special edition Switch and Controllers decked out in Super Smash Bros art. You can also get a Game Cube controller and adapter for the switch the same day just in case you prefer kicking butt the old school way.
Well, now that the notes are out of the way, here is the video in case you changed your mind. ^_^

Whormones Podcast Ep 73- Lower Sperm Counts Let the Mob Run the U.S. 0
Another last minute cancellation leads to a chat about everything that's happened in the past week since the transition of power. We talk about the marches, the removal of foreign aid in developing nations to clinics performing or educating about abortion. And guess what! It's a happy day for big oil, because they may just get their Dakota pipeline after all, since climate change isn't real! (Sweet jesus save us all.) Alia shares a new terror from Utah and Texas: women being potentially sentenced for miscarriages. Alia also shares her newest obsession: an argument that semen enacts a violent crime on a woman's egg without her consent, and an implication that life starts at male ejaculation. Using a bullet pointed list, Alia argues that it's the man's job to reduce sperm count. Jaqi brings up the good in the progressive Netherlands who are compensating for the US removal of support. We talk about Russia potentially decriminalizing domestic abuse/violence in an attempt to "protect the family unit from state interference," and the implications of Trump's "add one law, remove two," theory on small government. And since Alia has been Facebook jailed, Jaqi tells her about #freemilania (on twitter, too), and Alia clarifies "what hoes want." The gagging order on the EPA and USDA comes up, and Jaqi explains why it'd be smarter to just let the mob have power over the country. She also shares her most recent new adventure: acupuncture, and of course, closes the whole thing out with a reading from "Taken by the T-Rex" by Christie Sims. See ya next week!
Whormones Podcast Ep72- Dealing with Betas 0
We had a last minute cancellation, so it's a conversation between the ladies, this week. Jaqi & Alia talk about the impending inauguration "for the people" of our theoretical president, as well as the environmentally aware gay dance party planned for the lawn of Mike Pence. Jaqi brings up her upcoming trip to Bangkok and her plans on hiring a Thai prostitute. We talk about a trip Alia took to Spain and debate whether or not it's dangerous for white women to travel alone. We move back to politics and Alia brings up Lee Camp's show "Redacted Tonight," and the infrastructure Obama put in place that could enable Trump to go to war without America's consent. She brings up Chelsea Manning and the potential pardons of other whistleblowers (which of course brings up Assange's alleged rape). Alia shares her experience on the show NYC Crime Report, and how many there really are. No victim blaming, here, just the unfortunate world we live in. After all this, Jaqi admits she's started dating and shares two recent experiences. We talk about potential relationships and being honest in what you're looking for, as well as your level of honesty in the natural growth of relationships. We discuss our "types," and Jaqi actually says p*ssy (with and without an asterisk). Alia admits that she has to think a guy could beat her up. All this and Alia has chosen Dino-rotica for Jaqi's next reading-- a book called "Taken by the T-Rex," by Christie Sims.

Whormones Podcast Ep71- Spines of the Blow-fish with Tamer Kattan 0
This week on the podcast, we have Tamer Kattan. Tamer began his comedy career in Los Angeles and New York, but very quickly began to tour internationally. He's performed for the troops in Afghanistan, and the Edinburgh fringe in Scotland, where he received three 4 star reviews from international press. Towards the end of 2013, he moved to London for 1 year (following the path of his two biggest comedic influences, Patrice O'Neal and Bill Hicks). Tamer was most recently featured on Seth Rogen's Hilarity for Charity event with Todd Glass and Hannibal Buress, won the 2015 World Series of Comedy and has TV & Radio credits on BBC and SkyTV in the UK as well as in the U.S. on Fox, HULU, HGTV & truTV. And now he's back in NYC.
We talk about growing up with weird names and how we all got teased as kids. Tamer informs us that growing up in Hollywood CA is not nearly as terrifying as growing up in Cairo, Egypt. He compares his full sleeve tattoos to the spines of a jellyfish and offers an example by a post-show interaction with a biker. We chat about pissgate. Is it real? If so...LOL. We move on to fantasize about fast food - Alia confesses she will cave for KFC, and we all agree BK's fries are the best fries. Tamer talks about his time overseas and European cinema ratings versus American ones and posits that it's healthier for kids to watch sex than anger. We brainstorm organizing vets to save planned parenthood, Tamer demands lesbians help women out by teaching men some things. All that and to Alia's relief, we reached the final segment of "the Art of Being a Lady" by Hannah Pryor.

Whormones Podcast Ep70- Dramatic Passive Aggressivism 0
This week Alia & Jaqi catch up with each other and you. We share Christmas stories, and Jaqi vents about holiday family guiltings when Alia jokingly does the same. We're excited to be here though because we watched a great documentary "Hypernormalization" by Adam Curtis. A nearly 3-hour piece which was originally aired & produced by the BBC, Curtis argues that since the 1970s, governments, financiers, and technological utopians have given up on the complex "real world" and built a simple "fake world" that is run by corporations and kept stable by politicians." (Reference: Wikipedia.) It draws attention to powers that be, complacency, disinformation, new movements and why those movements fail. It draws parallels between the current US political system the failing Russian system of the 70s, and Putin's current rule. We discuss what we each took away from it, and how we move forward (and if we can). After that, we move on to what really matters - what is happening in Blacklist, and the latest Lena Dunham online saga. Then, happy new year everyone! Jaqi's new year involved champagne & the linguistic implications of God as argued by an astrophysicist. We complain about living presents. Never buy a dog to save a relationship! Alia announces our new Patreon page and tells us how to ask a girl to cum on her face. Closing it out, Hannah Pryor teaches Alia how to treat people in a reading from the Art of Being a Lady."

Contrast that with the United States, where just since 1970, more Americans have died from guns (1.45 million, including murders, suicides and accidents) than died in all the wars in US history (1.4 million). More Americans die from guns every 10 weeks than died in the entire Afghanistan and Iraq wars combined, yet we still don't have gun safety rules as rigorous as New Zealand's even before the mosques were attacked.
It's also true that there are no simple solutions. The US now has more guns than people, so criminals have a steady supply — and so do ordinary Americans at a time when suicides are at a 30-year high.
Astonishingly, about 22 percent of guns in the US are still acquired without a background check. In parts of the US, you need a more thorough background check to adopt a dog than to acquire a semi-automatic AR-15 weapon.
We should likewise invest more in "smart guns" that can be fired only by an authorised person; it's outrageous that my phone requires a pin or fingerprint but that an AR-15 doesn't. That would help with the estimated 200,000 guns stolen each year.
Your eminent columnists have been making a most competent and compelling analysis of the Christchurch massacre and the incredibly courageous response by the country in total distress and by its Prime Minister Jacinda Arden in the most humane manner. The world has been admiring these since.
We are also in a small way paying our tribute and we are certain that our voice of hope will be strengthened by , one of the world's leading journals. And this hope is outlined below with a fervent appeal to place this in your publication with your global message.
The global proposal is to award the next NOBEL PEACE PRIZE to NEW ZEALAND and its PRIME MINISTER JACINDA ARDEN !
Could there be a small tiny little smidgen of a chance that the founding fathers of your country maybe got it wrong?
Or more likely that the right to arms they set out as part of your constitution is now being taken out of context.
Guns never have been a way of life in NZ. Sure the farmers need them. So let them have them.
Sportsman, hunters need them. I personally don't understand them, but again let them have them.
But do good law-abiding citizens need automatic & semi-automatics?
I am a 58-year-old normal kiwi bloke. Never held a gun in my life. Hardly ever seen them either. Never needed too. Abhorrent thought that people should need to carry or own them. Completely do not understand the need to own or use them. Unless you're a farmer or sportsman.
Which brings it back to the "right" to carry a gun & defend yourself. Is it old legislation or, more likely being used out of context. Is it now fit for purpose.

Gregor and Jacqueline Piatigorsky / Incident at a Westwood Record Store
Written by Tom Schnabel Jul. 26, 2012 Rhythm Planet
I chuckled last night as I read the obit of Jacqueline Piatigorsky, wife of the great Russian cellist, who died at the ripe old age of 100. She was as good a chess player as her husband was a renowned cellist. The both had to leave Paris during the Nazi occupation, and came to Los Angeles, where Piatigorsky secured a teaching position at USC, where he taught alongside Jascha Heifetz, the great violinist. The Piatigorsky's lived in Brentwood at the time.
In 1971 I was working at a great record store called Vogue Records in Westwood (many of my musical friends worked in record stores at some time or another). A fellow Vogue worker told me about an incident at another record store where a woman came in and wanted to buy Gregor Piatigorsky's recording of the sublime Dvorak cello concerto, considered by many the most demonically virtuosic of all cello works—-sort of the cello version of the Rachmaninov 3rd piano concerto.
The store clerk–who must have been knowledgeable about classical music—- told the woman, who had a French accent, that the Piatigorsky version was inferior to many other recorded versions: those of Jacques Fournier, Rostropovich, Starker, DuPré, and others. She stubbornly persisted. He told her that Gregor's stumbling version sounded like he was drunk, or just hadn't learned the score. She insisted on getting that version. He After all his entreaties failed, clerk and customer walked to the register and she wrote out a check. It was signed "Mrs. Gregor Piatigorsky".

My previous post "Female Millennial's Blast Lady Pilots into the Future" hit a nerve with both sexes based on the number of calls, texts, emails and Facebook messages I received. I've heard enough women's stories in the last 48 hours to assure everyone that sexual bias is still real in the world of aviation. But for those that posed the question, sexual bias is not what my post was about.
"Bias" implies discrimination which was not my experience nor has it been a factor in my flying career – far from it in fact. The point of my post was that stereotypical assumptions exist and will only change when the number of female pilots changes, i.e. we can use a lot more women pilots!
The "shock and awe" at seeing a woman at the controls of an aircraft, whether by a surprised man … or surprised woman, will only change when women flying is the norm. For the most part, my most memorable responses from surprised sightseers have been entertaining and left me smiling. Hopefully the outspoken and curious individuals left with a new and positive mindset about women at the stick of an airplane. Still, I'm always left wondering why a woman landing an aircraft is noticeable and worthy of conversation at all.
Which brings me back to the point of my post. Get out and fly ladies and encourage more women, young and old, to do the same. It's a numbers game and we women are the losers.
I speak from my personal experiences and understand every woman pilot has her own story to tell. Many women have far more flying experience than me and I wonder, who am I, a private pilot, telling anybody anything? Haha, but here I go again!
Unfortunately, there are a few remaining unenlightened, ill-informed individuals with a true bias against women pilots, particularly those flying professionally. It's one thing to be quizzed by the counter person at a FBO about who the "real" PIC of your aircraft is, and it's a completely different thing for a passenger on your commercial flight telling you he's "not comfortable" flying on an aircraft with a woman pilot. Ladies, no matter how many ratings you have, how much time you've logged, how many aircraft you've flown, someone's out there waiting to offend you. When it happens, deal with it kindly, with humor, and as a learning opportunity for that individual. We all have the power to change the world, one person at a time.
Old habits die hard and the fact is, that mentality dies off with every old fart who bites the dust, albeit man or woman. Sad but true.
So Generation Y, and those before and after you, we need you. We welcome you, encourage you and are thrilled you are poised to change the world for the better, forever.

Barea added 14 points, five rebounds and five assists, and the Mavericks won for the third time in four games after losing six in a row, even though Doncic struggled. The leading scorer among NBA rookies, Doncic finished with 11 points on 3-of-12 shooting.
"Sometimes, (Doncic)'s gonna have bad games," Barea said. "He's still young, and he can't be great every game. So we've got to help him out."
The Mavericks led by as many as 14 points and never trailed after the first quarter. But they struggled to put this one away, with Chicago pulling within a point four times in the second half.
Zach LaVine led the Bulls with 26 points. Jabari Parker scored all but two of his 16 points in the second half.
LaVine's breakaway windmill dunk cut Dallas' lead to 58-57, but Dennis Smith Jr. responded with a 3-pointer.
"We came out too lackadaisical," LaVine said. "We've got to come out and play better. We've got to have more energy."
It was 87-84 midway through the fourth when Smith hit a jumper and Barnes made two free throws to stretch the lead to seven points. Doncic hit a 3 with just over three minutes left to make it 96-88. After the Bulls got within four, Barnes made two free throws with 10.5 seconds left and the Mavericks hung on.
"We've had a lot of tough losses this year, times where we were close and just couldn't get over the hump, couldn't make the right play," Barnes said. "Things are finally starting to come together."
Dallas' bench outscored Chicago's subs 44-26. "Our bench has been playing great for us all season," Barnes said. "So it has been great to see them keep us in games, get us in games, finish games."
The Bulls, who came into the game shooting 36.9 percent on 3-pointers, were 8 of 33. LaVine missed all six.
Mavericks: Mavericks G Wesley Matthews missed Monday's game because of a strained left hamstring. Matthews did not travel to Chicago. He played 31 minutes in a win over Oklahoma City on Saturday. Coach Rick Carlisle says the Mavericks hope he can play Wednesday, when the Mavericks host Utah. ... Jalen Brunson, who's from suburban Lincolnshire, scored two points in his first NBA game in Chicago. ... Carlisle said the Mavericks would have drafted Wendell Carter Jr. with the fifth overall pick this year had they not traded up to get Doncic at No. 3. Carter went to the Bulls at No. 7. "I see him as another coming of an Al Horford-type player," Carlisle said.
Bulls: The Bulls expect F Lauri Markkanen to miss more time than they initially anticipated because of a left elbow injury he suffered in the preseason. Coach Fred Hoiberg said Markkanen will likely wind up missing nine to 11 weeks. The Bulls initially thought he would be out six to eight weeks after he was hurt in practice in late September. Hoiberg said Markkanen still is experiencing some pain and is not shooting from long range. ... Hoiberg said G Kris Dunn (sprained medial collateral ligament in his left knee) has not started running on the court. He was hurt at Dallas on Oct. 22.

Residential clean outs generally do not demand large dumpsters. The size that you just need, however, will be contingent on the size of the endeavor.

Unless you are a professional, it is difficult to gauge the exact size needed for your job. By getting a slightly bigger size, you spend a little more money, however you also prevent the possibility you will run out of room. Renting a bigger dumpster is nearly always cheaper than renting two little ones.
A front load dumpster has mechanical arms that that lift containers off the ground. The arms tilt to pour the debris into the truck's dumpster. It is a useful option for businesses that collect considerable amounts of garbage.
While roll off dumpsters are generally left on place, front load dumpsters will come pick up debris on a set schedule. That makes it possible for sterilization professionals to eliminate garbage and crap for multiple residences and businesses in the area at affordable prices.
Most firms ensure it is simple for you to book your dumpster appointment. Before you contact rental firms to schedule a drop off or pick up, however, you can take a few measures which make the procedure even easier.
2. Give you and also the rental business a lot of time. It is best to call ahead at least a week or two before you want the dumpster. Should you attempt to schedule an appointment sooner than that, you might have a limited selection.
3. Keep in contact with all the rental business. If anything changes in your schedule, contact the business as soon as possible to permit them to know. This way you can correct the appointment as needed without limiting your options.
Picking the top dumpster for your job is an important aspect of dumpster rental in Rio Rico. If you choose a dumpster that is too little, you won't have enough room for your debris and waste, which means you will have to schedule extra excursions. In the event that you decide on one that is too big, you will save time, but you will squander money.
If you call a dumpster rental company in Rio Rico and describe the job for which you desire a dumpster, they can urge the best size.

A 20-yard dumpster is the best option for large home cleanup projects and moderate-sized renovation projects, while a 30-yard dumpster has higher walls which are ideal for a house cleanout or remodeling jobs on a sizable house. 40-yard dumpsters are massively large and are used only on the biggest projects including new construction.
The total amount of time that you need to rent a dumpster in Rio Rico usually depends on the type of job you are working on. A small project, including a basement clean out, will likely take a couple of days to finish while larger projects, like building a new house, could take several months.
Most dumpster rental companies in Rio Rico are happy to adjust their schedules to fit your needs. Keep in mind, however, that the the more time you keep the dumpster, the further you'll have to cover it.
When you contact dumpster rental companies in Rio Rico, ask them how long their terms are. Many will give you options such as several days or one week, but there are typically longer durations available, also.
You also ought to ask how much the companies charge for extra time. This way you know how much it costs to maintain the dumpster for a couple of extra days if desired.
One of the most significant things to do when you're contemplating a construction or remodeling job is to plan ahead. Element of that process will be studying your dumpster needs for the endeavor. Understanding ahead of time how dumpster rental in Rio Rico works will make things simpler when you start the process. You will locate most of the typical advice you need online, but for information particular to your region, you may need to call your local company.

Among the largest parts of your research will be establishing the right size container you need to rent based on the size of the project. This may be your largest cost, so ensure you get a size that's big enough to last for the entire endeavor. Other issues to research first comprise a potential place for the container, the type of waste which you're throwing away and the period of time you will need the dumpster.
Renting a 40 yard dumpster will get you a container that holds about 40 cubic yards of waste. Dumpster sizes and dimensions aren't totally normal from company to company, but common measurements for a 40 yard container are 22 feet long by 8 feet wide by 8 feet high. This is the largest size that most dumpster companies commonly rent, therefore it is ideal for large residential projects as well as for commercial and industrial use.
The largest roll-off dumpster that businesses normally rent is a 40 yard container. This enormous dumpster will hold up to 40 cubic yards of debris, which is comparable to between 12 and 20 pickup truck loads of debris.
The weight limit on 40 yard containers usually ranges from 4 to 8 tons (8,000 to 16,000 pounds). Be quite aware of this limit and do your best not to surpass it. If you do go over the limit, you can incur overage costs, which add up quickly.
Most residential areas permit rolloff dumpsters. If you have a drive, then you could usually park the dumpster there so you do not annoy your neighbors or cause traffic problems by putting it upon the street.
Some jobs, though, will require putting the dumpster on the road. If it applies to you, then you definitely should speak to your city to learn whether you must get any licenses before renting the dumpster. Usually, cities will let you keep a dumpster on a residential street for a brief quantity of time. If you think you will need to keep it to the street for several weeks or months, though, you will need to get a license.

Hawaii Workers' Compensation
Hawaii's workers compensation or workman's compensation provides benefits to Hawaiian workers who are injured while performing their job duties. Workers' compensation benefits in Hawaii can include paid medical benefits, lost wage compensation, vocational rehabilitation services and survivor benefits paid to the surviving beneficiaries of a deceased worker.
Hawaii workers' compensation is viewed as a trade-off for the employee and the employer. The employer is required to purchase workers' compensation for all qualifying workers and the employee forfeits their right to file a personal injury claim (under most conditions) in exchange for immediate benefits.
Both employer and employee avoid a protracted legal battle, and the employer does not have to prove that their negligent actions were not the cause of the Hawaii workplace injury.
The Hawaii workman's compensation laws were enacted in 1915 and are now administered by the Hawaii Department of Labor and Industrial Relations. Work comp laws vary by state and can be complicated. If you have been injured in a workplace injury, it may be helpful to contact a Hawaii workers comp lawyer.
Hiring a Hawaii Workers Compensation Lawyer
Hawaiian workers may file their work comp claim on their own or seek legal help from a workman's compensation attorney at any phase of the claim process. Not all employees will need legal assistance, but if you have suffered a permanent or severe debilitating workplace injury, a compensation attorney from Hawaii can ensure you get the compensation you deserve.
Many employers will work hard to ensure a worker gets the medical help and wage loss compensation they need, but other employers may be more concerned with closing the Hawaii work comp claim and saving money.
Hawaii Work Injuries Covered Under Workers Compensation
Most Hawaii workplace injuries are covered under workman's compensation if they occur at work and while the worker is engaged in their normal job functions. Occupational illnesses which occur within the course of employment may also be covered.
Some of the most common types of Hawaii workplace injuries and occupational illnesses can include:
Abrasions and burns
Amputations of arms or legs
Heart attack or strokes on the job
Diseases caused by inhalation of chemicals or other toxins
Torn Rotator Cuff
Torn Meniscus
Asbestosis exposure
Hawaii workers who are injured while intentionally trying to hurt themselves or others, who flagrantly disregard safety precautions, who are travelling to or from work while they are injured or who are injured due to intoxication of drugs or alcohol may have difficulty getting workers' compensation.
Hawaii Workers' Compensation Benefits
Like other states, Hawaii workman's compensation provides medical benefits, temporary total disability benefits (TTD), permanent total disability benefits (PTD), permanent partial disability benefits (PPD, vocational rehabilitation benefits, and death benefits. More information about each benefit is listed below.
Medical Benefits - Medical benefits are provided to injured Hawaiian workers and can include paid medical expenses for all reasonable and necessary medical services to help an employee heal after their Hawaii work injury.
Medical benefits which may be covered can include: doctor's visits, hospitalizations, medical supplies, laboratory services, nursing services, and prescribed medications. If a worker has more than 5 visits to a treating physician, additional visits must be approved by the Hawaiian Department of Labor.
Temporary Total Disability Benefits (TTD) - Temporary total disability benefits are paid to Hawaiian workers who are injured and temporarily unable to return to their job. TTD benefits are paid at 66 2/3% of the worker's normal wage and can be paid for the duration of the work injury (subject to the state's maximum and minimum limits).Prior to receiving temporary total disability benefits the worker must miss three calendar days of work.
Permanent Total Disability Benefits (PTD) - Permanent total disability benefits (PTD) are paid to Hawaiian workers who sustain a work injury and are unable to return to any type of work due to their residual work injuries.
PTD benefits are paid at 66 2/3% of the worker's average weekly earnings and can be paid until the worker is able to return to work or for the remainder of the worker's life.
The following work injuries are considered permanent and total:
The permanent and total loss of sight in both eyes
The loss of both feet at or before the ankle
The loss of both hands at or above the wrist
The loss of one hand and one foot
An injury to the spine resulting in permanent and complete paralysis of both legs or both arms or one leg and one arm
An injury to the skull resulting in incurable imbecility or insanity.
Permanent Partial Disability Benefits (PPD) - Permanent partial disability benefits (PPD) are paid to workers who have suffered a work injury and after reaching their maximum medical improvement continue to have residual partial and permanent injuries.
PPD benefits are paid according to a schedule, and the amount and duration which is paid for different injuries will depend on the severity of the work injury and the worker's impairment rating.
Death Benefits - Death benefits are paid to the surviving beneficiaries of a worker who is killed in a work injury. Death benefits include a percentage of the deceased worker's wage. Death benefits can also include payment for burial expenses up to the state's maximum allowable amount.
Vocational Rehabilitation Benefits - Vocational rehabilitation services are provided to Hawaiian workers who are unable to return to their current job due to their residual work injuries. Vocational rehabilitation may include job re-training, job assessment, or job counseling. The ultimate goal of all types of rehabilitation is to help the Hawaiian worker return to substantial employment.
Disfigurement-payments - Hawaiian workers who are injured and who have severe and permanent disfigurement including scars, burns, deformities or lacerations may be eligible to receive additional disfigurement payments.

Knowing when to travel to Cancun is important, depending on who you come with and what you want to do. In Mexico, as well as in the United States, vacations are aligned to school calendars, which means that any date apart from summer and winter vacations, is perfect to enjoy the following activities in Cancun.
Visiting the archaeological spots of the Mexican Caribbean in low season means being able to enjoy them almost at your own pace, without so much influx of people and more flexible schedules, avoiding many rows. How about a tour to Chichen Itza, the Riviera Maya and Coba to culminate in incredible Tulum?
Despite being rainy season, the climate is mainly mild during the day and there is less humidity. This will allow you to enjoy more outdoor activities, like swimming with dolphins.
Although it is cloudy, it is not cold. The rain rarely keeps things stop from happening in Cancun. Also, in case the rain does keep you from doing other activities in Cancun, there are other options to carry out indoors, such as partying at the hotel bar.
Due to lower demand, the low season triggers bids on airline tickets, hotel and even shopping centers, as it coincides with discount season at stores. If your thing is to go shopping anywhere you go, the low season in Cancun is ideal for you.
Book in advance for these dates and save money so you can invest in another tour, in a great restaurant or nightclub in Boulevard Kukulcán or in a visit to the best theme parks.
Let's be honest. The dream of many people when they arrive at the beach, after months of being stuck in an office, is to swim peacefully and rest on the lounge chairs and on the sand. However, this dream is diminished with the bustle of the high season and the only thing you have left is to spend your energy keeping up with the party instead of disconnecting and resting.
If you go in low season, you will rest properly, without having to worry about booking a place on the beach, and you will return to your regular life with recharged batteries.
With all the offer of activities in Cancun that can be done with your partner, it is not surprising that this place of Caribbean breeze, white sand and turquoise waters are preferred to start or fan a romance.
Cancun, in general, is ideal for couples looking to change the atmosphere and get out of the routine. However, in low season you may find a deeper emotional connection when surrounded by peace. You can take advantage of Isla Mujeres and its colorful buildings, swim with dolphins in the tranquility of the sea or strengthen your link with nature in the Isla Contoy reserve.
No matter what you do, remember to book your visit in advance to save money and inconveniences. The low season does not guarantee that there are no lines to carry out any activity, but you can definitely make the most of your time.
At Delphinus, we want your next holidays in the low season to be memorable. Book a swim with dolphins and enjoy our habitats to have a more personalized experience.

I decided to run in order to provide proper representation for the area. For about eight years the Ward voice has been very quiet. The area needs a voice to adequately represent the needs of the community. I don't believe the area interests have been addressed at City Hall in a long time. I will be that voice to not only address the area needs but provide the City with a common sense approach to politics. Providing real solutions to issues requires action. I am not one to sit on the bench, I am one to get in the game and take action, providing real solutions. It is time we had positive action to solve real problems. I enjoy helping people and the area residents and from where I sit, the City needs help. Those are some of my reasons for running.
I have been with the City for 32 years, I have worked with a multitude of departments in my role with the City. I have been involved with all levels of management and have also had direct dealings with past Councillors. My experience with the City brings me close to the issues and allows me to see the interaction between political decisions and the ensuing results in the area/City. I also bring a background in running my own business. I know what it will take to ensure the taxpayers get the best services for their tax dollars.
The issues are not only important to me but more importantly, the people I would represent. Depending on the area, I have heard crime as an issue, poverty, preservation of green space, and tax dollars being wasted. I will fight for the issues concerning my ward on both sides of the river as a good Councillor should. The issues that are important to my constituents are the issues that are important to me and as an elected official I need to respect the concerns put forward and address them appropriately.
The Ward of Charleswood-Tuxedo now encompasses Westwood, the Oaks and St.Charles. What I really appreciate about the area is the fact people are concerned about development and loss of green space, on both sides of the river. I have been an advocate for the preservation of green space for a long time and responsible development. I believe people truly enjoy the green space in the area and I will fight to keep it as I have in the past and will until my last breath.

What Is Angle?
Etymologically the angles got to be small [Schwartzman]:
angle (noun), angular (adjective): from Latin angulus "corner, angle." Latin "-ulus" is a diminutive ending, so angulus meant literally "a little bending." In mathematics an angle measures how much "bending" or turning one line (= one side of the angle) does to get into the position of another line (= the other side of the angle.) The Indo-European root is ang- or ank- "to bend"; it is seen in the related native English word ankle, the bend between the leg and the foot. It is also seen in the word English, since the anscestors of the English lived in the angular-shaped region in Europe known as Angul. A related borrowing from Greek is anchor.
However, the common definition of angle does not refer to the size of the angle at all:
An angle is a combination of two rays (half-lines) with a common endpoint. The latter is known as the vertex of the angle and the rays as the sides, sometimes as the legs and sometimes the arms of the angle.
Under this definition, two angles are congruent provided either can be made to coincide (the vertex and the sides) with the other by a rigid motion. If O is the vertex of an angle while A and B are points on the two sides, the angle may be referred to as ∠AOB or ∠BOA (and this for any selection of the two points A and B.)
In elementary geometry, the definition mostly works, altough at times a text author is forced to make excuses or skip over important details. Angles can be compared and, just as linear segments, added and subtracted. To this end, the definition alone does not suffice.
To enable comparison and addition, some texts [Hilbert, Kiselev, O'Daffer] associate with an angle one of two regions into which the two sides of the angle split the plane. One of these is termed the interior and the other the exterior of the angle. In order to compare the angles they should be placed so their interiors intersect while some two sides and the vertices coincide. The angle whose other side is located in the interior of the other angle is declared (and naturally so) the smaller of the two. For addition, we overlap one side of one angle with a side of the other so as to insure that their interiors do not intersect. The two free sides (one from each of the addends) form an angle which is declared the sum of the two.
With some caution, we can define straight and right angles. An angle is straight when its sides form a straight line. That angle is right which, when doubled (i.e. added to itself), gives a straight angle. In Euclid's terms (Definition I.10), "When a straight line standing on a straight line makes the adjacent angles equal to one another, each of the equal angles is right." Acute and obtuse angles are smaller and respectively greater than right. Usually, obtuse angles are taken to be smaller than straight, in which case the angles that exceed the straight angle are said to be reflex. A reflex angle so big as to have its two sides overlap is full. (A dynamic illustration is available elsewhere.)
The sum of two acute angles is either acute, right or obtuse. The sum of an obtuse and an acute angle, or of three acute angles, may be reflex. The existence (or admittance) of reflex angles kills all hope that the interior of an angle may be determined from its sides in a natural way.
Handpicking the interior and appending it to the definition almost solves the problem. A difficulty arises only for angles greater than full for which the notion of interior becomes quite dubious. An alternative is to associate angles with angular measure, for example, via the
Protractor Postulate
All the half-lines emanating from the same point can be numbered so that number differences measure angles.
The authors usually restrict themselves to allowing angles either less than straight [Hilbert, Jacobs] or less than full [Birkhoff]. The angles outside the chosen range are looked at more as algebraic rather than geometric entities. The metamorphosis is commonly implicit. For example, by the time we learn that the sum of the interior angles of a convex n-gon is (n-2)·180°, the latter is perceived as purely an algebraic quantity.
There are two units of angle measurement: degrees and radians. A full angle is equated to 360 degrees which is written as 360° or 2π radians. Radian is in fact a unitless unit. 2π of them is the ratio of the circumference to the radius of a circle and is the same for all circles.
Using angle units the angle classification is summarized as follows: for an angle α,
Zero α = 0 α = 0
Acute 0 < α < 90° 0 < α < π/2
Right α = 90° α = π/2
Obtuse 90° < α < 180° π/2 < α < π
Straight α = 180° α = π
Reflex 180° < α < 360° π < α < 2π
Full α = 360° α = 2π
The Protractor Postulate is mute as to the order of rays in which the difference is taken. Obviously, there are always two possibilities. One produces a positive number, the other a negative one. In elementary geometry, most of the time the order of the rays is ignored so that all angles are positive. But signed angles (also directed, sensed, oriented angles) have their uses. Thus, if an angle is 2-element set {OA, OB} containing two rays with a common vertex, a signed angle is an ordered pair (OA, OB) of two rays. (Tacitly we assume that enumeration of the rays emanating from a point is consistent with a possible orientation of the plane.) One of the rays in a pair (OA) is called initial, the other (OB) terminal, and the difference is calculated from the latter to the former. Thinking of the two as distinict positions of the same ray rotating around a fixed end point, we come with the interpretation of angle as a measure of rotation of a ray around a point. A rotation of a ray is naturally defined by its initial position and the amount of rotation which may include any number of complete revolutions.
In the presence of a selected plane orientation, a pair of a ray and a real number defines a unique rotation. Usually, the counterclockwise rotations are said to be positive; clockwise rotations are negative.
But what is a rotation? Is it possible to define a rotation without first introducing the angle of rotation? Yes, this is possible based on the notion of geometric transformation. Rotation is a geometric transformation with a fixed point that preserves distances. The relationship becomes transparent with the introduction of complex numbers, but it then becomes easy to lose the track of what comes first.
So, usually, elementary geometry texts count on students to have an intuitive idea of angle, introduce angle through the common definition and then often stealthily expand the notion of angle to angles that the definition does not cover. Doing otherwise requires much more serious mathematics than could be safely handled by both students and teachers.

New Hampshire, New York, Vermont, and Quebec: Upper East Side
Geoff Drake
We're passing through Bloomfield, VT, when we stop at the country store for a cold drink. A clearly exasperated farmer named Bob is at the counter, prattling on about the "Moose Fest," a fair and classic car gathering in the town of Canaan, 20 miles north. (It also happens to include an event that will soon be taking the country by storm: Cow Plop Bingo.) "Dang," says Bob. "I hate this weekend. When the Moose Fest comes to town, I go camping. It's a zoo up there." I notice he's buying a case of cheap beer for his forthcoming wilderness retreat. Clearly, the guy needs some alone time.
Despite these dire predictions of gridlock, Meredith and I press on to Canaan (population 970). But the predicted traffic jam keeps not happening. By the time we get to the town center, there's a solitary guy in an orange vest directing "traffic" into a dirt lot, which contains a total of five other cars. We pass through without touching the brakes once. If that's a Vermont traffic jam, I'll take another, please.
Welcome to some of the northernmost parts of the Northeast. I grew up in the East, outside New York City, but this is another thing altogether. It's a place where seemingly every car has a canoe or kayak affixed to the roof, and hikers, mountain bikers, and climbers are as common as fall leaves. Everyone you meet is in the middle of an outdoor adventure—or planning one. And, of course, it's perfect for motorcycling, thanks to a dense thicket of twisty, two-lane roads—and plentiful dirt roads, if that's your preference.
On this two-up trip, Meredith and I completed 1,000 miles through upstate Vermont, New York's Adirondack Mountains, southern Quebec, and back down into Vermont's Northeast Kingdom. Along the way we climbed the toll roads of Whiteface Mountain and the famed Mount Washington. We even found vintage bikes at the Bundy Modern museum in Waitsfield, VT, and met some river otters and a friendly, de-scented skunk at The Wild Center museum in Tupper Lake, NY.

Life Among the Bark Eaters
My history in the Adirondack Mountains runs deep. In junior high school, I spent 30 days here participating in a wilderness survival school, sleeping on the ground, navigating by map and compass, and drinking straight from mountain streams. Being an adolescent, I whined about epic hardships like the lack of pizza and doughnuts, but these many years later, I realize that the experience changed my life. It reset my compass permanently. I'm still happiest when I'm outdoors, away from muggles, and in the presence of trees, wildlife, and, well, nothing at all. In the ensuing years, my father and I camped, canoed, and toured extensively in the region. And later I spent my freshman year at college in upstate New York. That's a lot of connections.

Dota 2 – The Bukovel Minor Preview
Dota 2Esports
Image by WePlay! VK
The first DPC tournament of the year starts soon and it is time to refresh our memory about the attending teams.
Gambit Esports and Team Spirit
The CIS representatives in the Bukovel Minor will benefit from the home turf, but it is still a question whether it is going to be enough. Both teams attended the previous Major and both were pretty unsuccessful on the big stage.
The new patch and slightly lower competition level might allow Gambit to showcase why they were considered one of the top CIS teams last season. They already looked like they could go toe-to-toe with the best during the Singapore ONE tournament and ESL Hamburg, but they desperately need to start racking up DPC points, if they want to avoid the same fate as last year.
Team Spirit, in our opinion, is a bit of a dark horse: the last-minute change in roster might improve results, but it can also backfire and it is hard to tell before we see the team in action. Both nongrata and Ghostik are excellent offlane players and are probably around the same level in terms of skill and achievements so we will soon know who is actually a better fit for the team.
Ninjas in Pyjamas and Fighting PandaS
NiP went through some recent changes as well, but instead of going for an already established player, they are taking a risk, recruiting fresh blood into the scene. This decision is at the very least commendable, but it can also pay off greatly: Dota is an ever-changing game and fresh perspective often brings interesting new ideas and playstyles. Who knows, maybe the UK will soon be known not only for its talent, but also for its players?
The second North American squad, the Fighting Pandas, is an EternalEnvy team and that probably says it all. They have the capacity to win it all, but there is an equal chance they will finish dead last. They might bring to the table ideas that will be repeated and iterated on until the next big patch or they can draft something unexplainable game after game. Though at the very least one thing is almost certain: they are going to be entertaining.
Many consider Nigma to be the favorites in the upcoming Minor and there are good reasons for it. Despite unexpectedly tame results during the qualifiers it is still one of the few teams that managed multiple TI Grand Final appearances. They are talented, disciplined, experienced and, judging by their TI run last year, they are still hungry for more.
Skipping the first DPC tournaments of the year backfired on multiple notable teams, but unlike PSG.LGD Nigma still has a chance to prove that they are a force to be reckoned with. With the level of competition in the European region, this might be one of their last chances to hold on to their legendary status.
We feel like this team can be underestimated by the Western audiences, but RNG is a relatively young team that keeps on improving from tournament to tournament. They were close to making it to the Minor last time around and they finally found their footing, after changing the roster in the aftermath of TI9.
Young talented core players supported by an experienced support captain is a staple in the Chinese professional Dota scene and the formula proved successful time and time again. We are not going to speculate whether Fenrir is an improvement over LaNm in the "team veteran" role, as only time will tell, but we wouldn't be surprised if RNG made it to the Grand Finals of the Minor.
SEA is probably the second most competitive region in Dota right now, and it shows: you know there is no shortage of talented teams, when a team with Raven, Dubu and Kuku has to play in the Minor.
The recent roster change, while controversial from fan and community perspective, is probably a step in the right direction for the team: new meta requires incredibly active, explosive tempo mids and this is generally associated with younger players, hence Karl can be a better fit. Though we won't know for certain until after the tournament has started.
FURIA Esports is a team led by Duster—one of the youngest captains in the scene. After a rather heartbreaking departure from Pain Gaming more than a year ago, where he was replaced by the team's coach, he struggled to find success and this is his first international appearance since 2018.
In a lot of ways the start of his story is similar to fng, where perhaps the lack of faith and respect in the young captain was the problem, rather than said captain's lack of strategic and analytical prowess. Duster is still pretty young, especially for a captain, but it is impossible to call him inexperienced and we feel like his story will continue for a very long time.

-continuous mappings of a circle,
-continuous and smooth mappings of the segment,
-some facts about the Bifurcation Theory,
-a brief introduction to Interval Exchange Maps,
-an introduction to 1D Complex Dynamics. The syllabus given below is flexible. Some parts of this course can be omitted and provided all the students know them already (this mainly concerns the first part of the course). Meanwhile, the most sophisticated a part of the course (presumably, the Complex Dynamics) can be reduced, if necessary. C.

Integrable Systems: the r-matrix Approach
Mikhail Semenov-Tian-Shansky
Abstract: The present lecture proposal is based on the lectures which the author was giving at the Universite de Bourgogne, Dijon, France during two special semesters on Integrable Systems. Their first version was included in the Russian monograph "Integrable Systems. Group-Theoretical Aspects" published by the author together with A. Reyman in 2003. The notion of classical r-matrix introduced in the late 1970s by Sklyanin has proved to be an extremely useful tool that allows understanding of geometric and algebraic aspects of the Theory of Integrable Systems from a single point of view. The r-matrix approach allows us to take into account naturally several important features which are typical for various concrete examples of Integrable Systems
1.Preliminaries: Poisson Brackets, Poisson and Symplectic Manifolds, Symplectic Leaves.
2.The r-Matrix Method and the Main Theorem
3.Classical r-matrices Related to A-ne Lie Algebras
4.Poisson Lie Groups
5.Duality theory for Poisson Lie groups
6.Lax equations on Lie groups
7.Zero Curvature Equations and Current Algebras
8.Virasoro Algebra and Schroedinger Operators on the Circle

Complex-analytic aspects of soliton theory
Domrin Andrei Victorovich
Abstract: The course is intended as an introduction to the theory of(1+1)-dimensional continuous-time integrable systems (soliton equations) from the point of view of complex analysis, with special emphasis on the construction and description of analytic properties of all solutions that are holomorphic concerning the spatial variable $x$ and the temporal variable $t$ in the neighborhood of a given point. This class of solutions contains multi-soliton solutions, finite-gap solutions, and many others. We define soliton equations of parabolic type as reductions of zero curvature conditions whose coefficients are polynomials in the spectral parameter, describe this class of equations in detail (it contains the famous Korteweg--de Vries equation, nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation, and others), and give a construction of some local holomorphic solutions in terms of the Riemann problem. Then we extend this construction in such a way that it covers all local holomorphic solutions. This may be regarded as the direct and inverse scattering transform for local holomorphic potentials (it is equivalent to the ordinary one whenever both approaches are applicable). It turns out that the resulting scattering data enable us to give a criterion for the solvability of the Cauchy problem for any given flow in the hierarchy as well as a sufficient condition for the extension to a globally meromorphic monodromy-free function of the spatial variable. In particular, solion equations of parabolic type possess a strong form of the Painlev\'e property: every local holomorphic solution extends to a globally meromorphic monodromy-free function of the spatial variable. These and many related results will be given with full proofs (the required background is restricted to the standard courses of complex and functional analysis).
Some results will be stated without proof (for motivation and orientation) and several unsolved problems and conjectures will be highlighted.

Spherical varieties
Timashev Dmitry Andreevich
Abstract: Spherical homogeneous spaces are both classical and modern objects of study in algebra and geometry. Particular examples were studied by geometers since the XIX-th century, starting from spheres and projective spaces and passing to Grassmannians, flag varieties, spaces of quadrics, and, more generally, symmetric spaces. However, the unity of properties and approaches to the study of spherical spaces was well understood not too long ago, which led to an active development of the theory during the last 40 years. Spherical homogeneous spaces lie at the crossroads of algebraic geometry, the theory of algebraic groups, enumerative geometry, harmonic analysis, and representation theory. We shall consider various properties of spherical spaces from viewpoints of algebraic transformation groups, harmonic analysis, and equivariant symplectic geometry.
By standard reasons of algebraic geometry, to solve various problems on a spherical homogeneous space it is helpful to compactify it keeping track of the group action, i.e., to consider equivariant completions or, more generally, open embeddings of a given homogeneous space, called spherical varieties. It is an interesting class of rational algebraic varieties including toric varieties as a special case. Alike the toric case, the classification, and study of spherical varieties rely on certain data of combinatorial nature from discrete and convex geometry: lattices, valuation cones, and colors, colored cones and fans, piecewise linear functions and polytopes, etc.
We shall develop this theory and pass it to applications, which include: the theory of divisors and line bundles on spherical varieties, cellular decomposition, and cohomology, solving enumerative problems on spherical homogeneous spaces, problems in representation theory such as tensor product decompositions, algebraic semigroups, etc. An important property of spherical varieties is Frobenius splitting after reduction to positive characteristic, which has important consequences such as rationality of singularities and vanishing of higher cohomology of nef line bundles. If time allows, we shall discuss Frobenius splitting and also the recent classification of spherical homogeneous spaces based on the concepts of a wonderful variety and a spherical system.
The prerequisites for this course are basic knowledge of algebraic geometry, algebraic groups, and their representations. We shall recall more advanced concepts in the course of the exposition.

Deformation theory
Christopher Brav
Higher School of Economics
Abstract: Deformation theory in the most general sense the study of how some of the solutions to a system of equations can be perturbed. Typical applications in algebra and geometry include studying perturbations of rings, of varieties, of bundles on varieties, and so on. The general procedure for studying such perturbations is to work infinitesimally, order by order in formal parameters, and to consider the obstructions for extending a perturbation to the next higher order. This procedure allows deformations of a given order to be parametrized by linear data (in terms of the 'tangent complex' of the problem), while obstructions are encoded in a certain homotopy Lie algebra structure on the shifted tangent complex. Making these ideas precise and fully general requires the introduction of derived algebraic geometry, a generalization of algebraic geometry in which commutative rings are replaced with some kind of derived or homotopical commutative rings (differential graded, simplicial, or E∞, depending on the context). We shall begin the course with an introduction to derived algebraic geometry, in particular the construction of the (co)tangent complex on derived schemes and more general spaces, before formulating and outlining the proof of the main theorem of derived deformation theory that makes precise the sense in which 'deformations are controlled by differential graded Lie algebras'. Examples that we shall study include deformations of schemes (controlled by the Lie algebra of derived vector fields), deformations of bundles on schemes (controlled by the Lie algebra of derived endomorphisms of the bundle), and deformations of associative algebras (controlled by the Lie algebra of derived derivations). If time permits, we shall discuss more advanced examples arising in non-commutative geometry, such as the Gerstenhaber bracket on Hochschild cochains controlling deformations of a differential graded category, and the deformation theoretic proof of Hochschild-Kostant-Rosenberg theorem identifying Hochschild homology of a scheme with shifted Dolbeault cohomology, via functions on the derived loop space.
