African Union Chairman: Trump Sent Him Letter Two Weeks After 'Shithole Countries' Remark
By Bridget Johnson Mar 08, 2018 9:40 AM ET

The chairman of the African Union Commission confirmed today alongside Secretary of State Rex Tillerson that he received a letter from President Trump about two weeks after the president's reported remark calling Haiti and African nations "shithole countries."
Moussa Faki and Tillerson spoke with reporters in Addis Ababa, where both were asked about Trump's early January comments.
The Washington Post reported that Trump made the comment today during an Oval Office meeting with immigration negotiators including Sens. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) and Dick Durbin (D-Ill.). "Why are we having all these people from shithole countries come here?" Trump said, suggesting that more immigrants be brought into the country from places like Norway or Asia.
"Why do we need more Haitians?" Trump reportedly said. "Take them out."
Trump denied the report, while some lawmakers in the meeting said they heard the disparaging comments.
Tillerson said today that the purpose of his Africa trip "is to listen."
"I think it is important that we listen to what the priorities of the countries here on the continent are and see where there is good alignment between their priorities and our areas of greatest interest as well," he said when asked about his trip in the context of Trump's remarks. "And I think we've already found there are many, and that should not surprise anyone. We have important joint security activities underway and we appreciate the commitment made by many countries on the continent, not just with their own financial resources, but with their own men and women in uniform who are going right out on the front lines to fight this war against terror that we all are fighting globally."
"So this is an important trip. I think it is an indication of the importance the continent plays in the future of the United States, both from a security but also an economic standpoint. Africa, as a continent, is going to undergo significant population growth. Five of the world's fastest-growing — 12 fastest-growing economies are here in Africa, so clearly there is significant opportunity for American interest in the future," he added. "So it's important that we have very open dialogue with one another to understand our priorities and to understand how we align those priorities, and we support each other. So this is a vitally important continent to the U.S. and our future interest as well."
Tillerson said he and his African counterparts had "a very good exchange on various ways that we can consider creating a more sustainable and certain funding model for the counterterrorism efforts both — not just through the G5 Sahel, but also AMISOM and other activities to win the war against terror on the battlefield."
"But we also discussed the need to win the war in the social media and cyberspace as well. With Africa's very large and growing youth population, we must create good opportunities for education, for future jobs, so that the youth of Africa do not become easy targets for recruiting violent extremist messaging, and we had a good discussion about that as well today," he said. "So, a very broad canvas of common interests that we have to discuss."
Pressed again on whether he agrees with Trump's "shithole" description and whether Trump would apologize to the continent, Tillerson replied, "I think the United States commitment to Africa is quite clear in terms of the importance we place on the relationship. The president himself wrote a personal letter to the chairperson, reaffirming the importance of this relationship from the standpoint of all aspects that I covered in answering a previous question."
Faki confirmed that he "received a letter dated 25 January written by President Trump to myself, and which I have also copied to all the leaders of Africa, and I believe that this incident is of the past."
"With the visit of Secretary of State Tillerson, the evidence of the relations between Africa and the United States is personified through his visit. I believe reasonably this partnership has produced results. It is useful for both parties, whether in the area of trade or investment, or whether it is peace and stability in Africa," Faki said.
"You are aware the African continent has many partnerships," he added. "I think the Africans are mature enough to engage in partnerships of their own volition which will be useful for the country — for the countries and the continent. So there is no monopoly. We have multifaceted, multifarious relations with other parts of the world. We know where our interests, and it is our full awareness I think that is most important."

Q: Concatenating objects of different types into a string (Python) I have been learning Python for two weeks now
I created a function which displays your biographical data.
I want to know how to put objects of different data types into one string
As you can see, the data includes strings, an int and a boolean.
I want to be able to display them as a single string. So far my function only displays them individually like this: ('1000000', 'Bob', 17, False)
I want to it display like this: '<1000000,Bob,17,False>'
def student_data(name, age, student_number, enrolled):
    age = int(age)
    true = "true"
    false = "false"
    # check to see if user is enrolled or not.
    if enrolled == true:
        enrolled = True
    else:
        enrolled = False
    data = (student_number, name, age, enrolled,)
    return (data)

data = student_data("Jana", 17, "1001291657", "false")
print (data)

A: The easy answer to the question 'Concatenating objects of different types into a string' is to use map:
>>> list_of_obj=['string', 1234, 123.4, {1:'one'}]
>>> map(str, list_of_obj)
['string', '1234', '123.4', "{1: 'one'}"]

Or a list comprehension:
>>> [str(e) for e in list_of_obj]
['string', '1234', '123.4', "{1: 'one'}"]

In each case, you are applying the built-in function str to each object in a list.
However, may I suggest writing a class to keep track of students:
class Student(object):
    def __init__(self, name, age, number, enrolled=True):
        self.name=name
        self.age=age
        self.number=number
        self.enrolled=enrolled

Then add a method to the class to format it the way you want:
    # Note indentation to be part of the class definition of Student...
    def __str__(self):
        seq=(self.name, self.age, self.number, self.enrolled)
        return '<{}>'.format(', '.join([str(e) for e in seq]))

Then create a student:
>>> student1=Student('Bob Jones', 23, 12345, True)

Then the format is as you define it to be:
>>> print student1
<Bob Jone, 23, 12345, True>

As stated in the comments, I find it not so Pythonic to redefine true = "true" and false = "false" Just use True and False directly. The main reason, besides not confusing others (or yourself) is that you loose Python's sense of 'truthy' vs 'falsey':
>>> false = "false"
>>> bool(false)
True

A: You can create a list of strings by converting your objects like this
[str(i) for i in data]

Then it's just a matter of joining the list together with join() method.
Last lines of your code would look like this:
data = student_data("Jana", 17, "1001291657", "false")
string_data = ",".join([str(i) for i in data])
print("<{}>".format(string_data)) # adding brackets with format()

A: if you just want to show them ,simply use a function like this:
def student_data(name, age, student_number, enrolled):
 print "name:{0}, age:{1}, student_number:{2}, enrolled :{3}".fromat(name, age, student_number, enrolled)

and if you want to convert all of them to one string use this :
def student_data(name, age, student_number, enrolled):
   my_str=str(name)+','+str(age)+','+str(student_number)+','+str(enrolled)
   return my_str

as an alternative answer its better to pass your arguments in a list to function and use map and join built in functions for create a pythonic code for this aim :
my_list = [name, age, student_number, enrolled]
    def student_data(my_list):
     return ','.join(map(str,mylist))

As dueling snowstorms wreck havoc on both US coasts, Monday ended up being one of the worst air travel dates of the winter season with 1,140 US flight cancellations. However, Tuesday has already topped this total. Through 8:45am ET, FlightAware's flight cancellation tracker has counted 1,721 cancellations of US flights. And this number is only going grow.
Thankfully, you've got options if you're traveling this week — even if you didn't book the trip with a credit card that provides trip delay expense reimbursement from weather-related delays and cancellations. Many airlines have issued travel waivers that allow flexible travelers the option to rebook their flights — whether that's through a different connecting airport or on a different travel date. After all, airlines don't want you stuck sleeping on the airport floor either.
Image generated via Great Circle Mapper.
When rescheduled travel occurs beyond Feb. 16, the change fee will be waived. However, a difference in fare may apply. Final travel must be completed by end of ticket validity, one year from date of original issue.
No waivers (yet) from: Allegiant (current alert only good through Feb. 11).
This winter storm is another reminder to book flights with a card that offers solid trip delay and cancellation insurance. When I got stuck in Japan for four extra days due to a typhoon, the Citi Prestige trip delay protection reimbursed $1,000 of my expenses.
And I'm putting my money where my mouth is. I'm currently en route to New York (JFK) on a Cathay Pacific flight. Months ago when I made this purchase, I made sure to book with my Citi Prestige just in case there were weather issues. While my flight in on-time so far, I rest assured that I still have this protection even if my flight ends up being diverted.
Other cards with solid trip protection include the Chase Sapphire Reserve, the Chase Sapphire Preferred Card, Citi / AAdvantage Executive World Elite Mastercard and the Citi Premier Card.

I hope you guys like pumpkin and apples because those are pretty much the only two ingredients I'm interested in baking with for at least another month (ok, that's probably not true…I may have to use chocolate at some point). In fact, I've been going back and forth since last week about whether I should post another apple recipe or another pumpkin recipe and finally the idea came to me to put both of them together in one recipe for pumpkin-apple pancakes!
Brandon is on a business trip this week which means I'm not putting effort into making dinner, instead I've been eating lots of pancakes. You see, I was looking for the best pumpkin pancakes to share which meant I had to try several different recipes. I know, it was a tough job. 😉 But ultimately the one I like best is this one from Nicole at Pinch My Salt. The recipe is healthy and mostly whole wheat but you still get light and fluffy pancakes.
After how great my apple scones turned out last week, I want to put grated apple in everything so adding it to pumpkin pancakes sounded like a good idea. Plus, I already know those ingredients work well together from making Pumpkin Apple Streusel Muffins. I also added in a little apple cider to amp up the apple flavor. That plus the grated apple makes these pancakes extra moist and adds natural sweetness.
I had lots of apple cider to use up after buying a bottle of it for another recipe, so when I saw the recipe for apple cider syrup I figured it was worth a try. I'm so glad I did because this stuff is delicious! It's sort of a cross between a sauce and syrup and it tastes just like cooked apples but without any of the actual apples. I kind of want to put it on everything now…or maybe just eat it by the spoonful. It would be great on ice cream or an apple version of these dumplings.
This recipe is handy because it's two in one. You can make pumpkin-apple pancakes or you can omit the apple/apple cider and just have plain pumpkin pancakes. And the apple cider syrup is going to be good no matter what kind of pancakes you pour it on. If you're like me you may want to make extra just so you can have these pancakes for breakfast and dinner.
*You can make your own cake flour if you don't have any. Using AP flour is ok, but the pancakes will be heavier.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flours, baking soda, baking powder, spices and salt.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, pumpkin, grated apple, cider, oil and vanilla.
Make a well in the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients. Gently mix together with a wooden spoon until just combined. All the flour should be incorporated but lumps are fine. The batter will be thick, but you can add a bit more cider if you want to thin it out a little more.
Melt 1 tbsp. butter or oil in a large pan or griddle over medium heat (I turn my griddle to 350 degrees, since it's nonstick I don't use butter at all) Use a 1/3 measuring cup to scoop up batter and pour it into the pan/griddle. The pancakes are ready to turn when the edges start to look a little dry and you can see small bubbles forming on the surface. Repeat with the rest of the batter, adding more butter to the pan as necessary. Transfer the pancakes to a 200 degree oven to keep warm if necessary.
Serve warm with apple cider syrup.
In a small saucepan, stir together the sugar, cornstarch and cinnamon (if using).
Stir in the apple cider, lemon juice and cinnamon sticks (if using).
Cook over medium heat until mixture begins to boil. Boil, stirring occasionally, until the syrup thickens, about 10-15 minutes.
Remove from heat and stir in the butter until melted. Keep warm until ready to serve.
Those look amazing! My mouth is watering. I love that you did pumpkin & apple in the pancakes and that syrup sounds heavenly!
The only thing better than apple pancakes to me would be pumpkin apple pancakes. I love the idea of an apple cider syrup to top it off, too.
These look delicious! I never thought to try pumpkin and apple together.
I need those tommorow morning! Yum.
Could you encompass any more Fall flavors into this recipe? 😉 I'm so glad I saw this because I actually wanted to make apple pancakes this weekend. I think I'll have to add pumpkin to the mix!
These are some stunning photographs. The apple cider syrup sounds amazing to compliment the pancakes themselves. I love the whole wheat aspect, they look so delicious. It's fall wrapped up in a pancake form, what could be better than that?
Wow! I never heard of an apple and pumpkin combo. It really looks delicious. The apple cider syrup finish made everything else heavenly. Love it!

This motorized gaming bed lets you rest your gamer head
Here at The Verge, we sometimes like to write about gaming thrones, whether they're shaped like scorpions, semi-circles, or... well, I don't know how to describe it. But the thing with Throne is that the weight of the crown is often heavy - being an MVP and playing the game every round can be tiring. Thankfully, Gizmodo has just one thing to help you with this: a motorized gaming bed that gets you from sleeping position to panning position with the press of a button, while keeping your gaming setup within arms' reach. Keeps it inside. put it in
The Bohutte Electric Gaming Bed and Bed Desk are made to work together: Your rig moves to the adjustable desk, which is designed to put a bed under it, and the bed frame is designed to allow your back and knees to sit. Designed to lift in position. Uses motors. (Although, admittedly, not very ergonomic). After your gaming session, you can use the remote stored on the side of your bed to lull yourself back into a sleeping position, so you can curl up on your tired eyes and relax. It can raise or lower individual parts of the head and legs separately, giving you some configurable sleeping and sitting positions.
There is also a fleet of accessories. Bauhutte's website suggests pairing your gaming bed with an "energy wagon" that packs gamer fuel, a combo clothing rack, table and storage unit (for your gaming peripherals, of course), or even that stores a "Ninja Hussey 4G". Makes sure you're as secretive IRL in the game as you are. Bauhutte isn't just selling you a bed/gaming chair - it's selling you a lifestyle. It's worth noting that the company has been building up to this point: In 2020 there was a non-motorized version of the gaming bed setup, and in 2021 we heard about its gaming mattress. Now, it has all come together in motorized bliss.
While I don't think this product is very comfortable as a bed or chair, I don't think it's worth writing about at all. For someone living in an extremely small space like a bedroom or studio apartment, this can be a great way to fit both a bed and a desk in a really limited area. It may also be useful for people with limited mobility; Getting out of bed with some mechanical assistance can be very helpful.
Gizmodo reports that the bed frame costs about $480 (or 59,800 yen), and an Amazon seller lists it with a gaming mattress for about $680 (84,709 yen). The frame is about 78 inches long and 37 inches wide, which should let it hold a US twin-size mattress. Unfortunately, it seems that Bohutte is primarily focused on selling bedding in its home country of Japan, and the single frame is sold on Amazon Japan.
Thankfully, there are plenty of other motorized bed frames out there—though it's hard to say whether it'll feel the same way without the associated Desk and Gamer branding.

London Stadium is the UK's 4th most photographed sports venue in 2017
With all the criticism West Ham's London Stadium gets, it's hard to deny how impressive it actually is.
It's a lovely looking arena, both inside and out. It could of course look a lot better without a running track and more sturdy and professional looking retractable seating, but you can only work with what you're given. I'm sure a lot of that will change in the not too distant future.
Performances haven't exactly helped when it comes to trying to create a good atmosphere, either, but the last two games against Leicester and Chelsea are proof that we're capable of making a very loud racket when we want to, aided by the team playing well, of course.
The London Stadium is the second largest stadium in the Premier League (excluding Wembley because it's not Tottenham's real home) and it is attracting near to a full house every full game.
This year, 2.6 million of you have visited London Stadium, for gigs, goals, gold medals and more
This has lifted Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park to the UK's fourth-most instagrammed sports location in 2017 ▶ https://t.co/1ICSiENkcw pic.twitter.com/Rt4u0mvYeU
— London Stadium (@LondonStadium) December 12, 2017
Which means its no surprise to learn that it has been ranked the UK's fourth most Instagrammed sports venue in 2017, behind only the Emirates, Old Trafford and Wembley.
It beats the likes of Stamford Bridge, the Etihad, Wimbledon and even Ascot Racecourse in the top ten.
The stadium's ranking is of course boosted by the fact it hosts concerts, rugby matches and athletics as well, but it's encouraging to see so many people coming to visit what everyone thought was going to be a white elephant.
Along with the historical evolution of Football, across all of these years, a multitude of talented and extremely skilled players have represented West Ham, and many of them stand behind the evolution of the club down to this very moment, particularly in the new stadium. It's us fans who also have to play a part in ensuring the stadium lives up to the football club's high standards and rich history.
More than 2.6million people have visited the London Stadium in 2017. Not bad for a waste of tax payers' money, eh?

Use targeted keywords in the page title. Place the most important keyword phrase close to the beginning of the page title. Don't put your site title on every page of your site unless you are really trying to brand that name. In that scenario, it still is usually best to place the site name at the end of the page titles.
Shorter site titles are often better than longer ones.
Overlapping related keyword phrases in the page title can help immensely. Overlapping keyword phrases in the page title can help you pick up multiple search phrases.
Meta description could be a sentence or two to briefly describe the page contents. Meta description tag can be seen in some search results, filling it may appeal to human eyes and catch attention.
Meta keywords tag perhaps may not be worth the time to look into, but if you choose to make one, it should contain your primary keyword and its common misspellings and synonyms. Each keyword phrase in the keywords tag should be comma separated.
Use a single, descriptive H1 header on your page containing the keyword phrases similar to those you targeted in the page title. This helps reinforce the page title.
Use descriptive sub headers (preferably H2) for every paragraph. This improves readability and helps search engines understand what the page is all about.
Use bullets points and bold formats to break up content at the right places and make it easier to read.
Write your content for human consumption. If you write exclusively for search engines, the pages will read poorly and nobody will want to look at them.
Thanks for sharing these page optimization tips, I would like to add that revamping older posts and content can prevent fine from updated search engine algorithm. But, I totally agree with you on content creation, which must be crafted for human consumption and not specifically for search bots. Keep sharing such articles.


Our client families are affluent, yes, but there are almost as many definitions for affluence as there are varied needs of the families we serve. Whether you are in the process of building your family's wealth, you want to protect it as it grows, or if you're preparing your succession plan to leave a legacy, Meristem has a unique suite of services to meet your family's needs. Your family's needs are at the heart of how and why we do business.
To reduce financial complexity allowing for focus on your family and your goals.
To manage a liquidity event that signals your need for deeper advice and service.
To safeguard your family's wealth for future generations.
To create a common family vision of your legacy.
Regardless of your needs, when you become a client of Meristem, you gain a Family Financial Officer on speed dial - one that truly knows your family.
Historically, the term Family Office described a dedicated staff of employees serving a singular affluent family in managing all aspects of their wealth. At Meristem, we aspire to provide a Family Office experience to all of our client families. We believe families benefit greatly from a holistic and thoughtful process of ongoing advice, education and service. In our approach, all clients collectively become the families we serve. The scale we have developed allows us to serve them with over 35 dedicated employees, multiple locations and an expansive service offering.
We think you deserve this level of service and would benefit greatly across the family with Meristem as your Family Financial Officer (FFO). We are confident we can help you consume and value the appropriate level of service for your family. Customizing our approach makes the service personal to you.
What is Meristem's Investment philosophy?
Broadly, the Meristem Investment Committee believes in building portfolios that provide for adequate diversification to reduce volatility while providing both income and growth characteristics. Our primary goal is to create a customized investment plan for each family's unique circumstance. We begin with a study of the client balance sheet, liquidity and cash flow needs. A vigorous dialogue around risk and returns shapes the asset allocation decision process. Underlying asset strategies may take the form of active and passive strategies. In the asset class selection process, we apply rigorous due diligence and sensitivity to expenses and taxation. On an on-going basis we provide for tactical rebalancing, manager review, performance and tax reporting.
How do I initiate a dialogue about wealth with my family?
It is never too early to begin discussing money with your children as they will grow up receiving thousands of messages around wealth and money. It is important that you participate in the formation of their financial belief system. It can begin in grade school-aged children who have the capability of understanding the value of a dollar. As your children grow older it will shift to an understanding of creating their own financial independence. As they become adults it should shift to your family's wealth vision and values. What do you want your family's financial legacy to be? It is best to not keep this answer from your family, communicate this early and often.
How do I better understand what Meristem can do for me?
We would invite you to start by confidentially sharing your story with us. We realize the best way for you to get to know us and our value is for us to demonstrate the model in your terms.
Simply contact us and we will arrange for an initial conversation.
Meristem's three core principles are to advise, educate and serve individuals, their families and their varying entities.
Meristem is independent, owned by principals who manage both the business and client relationships. We think and respond like owners.
Meristem is a unique alternative to large financial institutions who offer wealth management as a business line. Family wealth is our only business.
Meristem has shown a desire to grow our presence to meet the needs of our clients with offices in Minnesota, Arizona and Florida.
Meristem established a wholly owned South Dakota Trust company in response to client demand and interest for fiduciary services for future generations.
Meristem strongly believes in the future of family wealth and continuously seeks to invest in people, technology and service offerings.
Meristem is fiercely protective of its client families and their interests because we believe family and wealth are personal and private.
Meristem is the right fit for you and your family because, after spending time together, you believe our people, process and advice will make a difference in your financial lives.

Travel Faux Pas: White Tennis Shoes Oh My!
If I had a nickel for every time I've seen a tourist in Tevas and white tube socks, I'd have enough to buy at least one of those misguided souls a new pair of shoes. I'll never understand this fashion faux pas—if you want warm toes, why not wear closed-toe shoes with socks? Or if your feet get too sweaty, why are you wearing socks with your sandals?
Nothing says "rob me" (or "quietly mock me behind my back") like a fanny pack. Why are you strapping all your valuables around your waist? Invest in a theft-proof bag, wear your wallet in your front pocket, or use a cross-body bag—all of these will give you better pickpocket protection without stamping you as a tourist from the land where fashion died.
Dear tourist in your newly purchased "I Heart New York" T-shirt who just suddenly stopped in the middle of the sidewalk to pull out a giant map, thereby causing a pedestrian pile-up—I hate you, and I know how much you paid for that low-quality shirt because I see them being hawked on every street corner. Save the souvenir shirts for when you get home. Better yet, buy a cool shirt that will just remind you of the place in which you bought it rather than a boring souvenir shirt that just has the name of a city ironed onto it. Plus, you'll get to be the smug traveler who replies, "Oh, this? I just picked it up in a little shop in Milan" whenever someone asks you where you bought your swanky outfit.
When in another country, nothing makes you stand out as an American tourist more than your bright white athletic sneakers. In most other nations, running shoes are only worn when working out—not when touring or dining. I'm not saying you should wear stilettos—travel usually involves so much walking that you'll definitely need comfortable shoes—I'm just suggesting you explore some alternatives.
Are you an Olympic athlete traveling with your team for the games? No? Then why are you wearing a full tracksuit everywhere you go? Show some respect for the place you're visiting and leave the gym clothes in your hotel room. There's a fine line between comfort and looking like a slob—and you can be comfortable without looking like you've given up on life, I promise.
Crocs are pretty much universally mocked. If the shame of wearing garishly colored plastic clogs with holes in them wasn't enough to deter you, how about this accident, in which a Crocs-wearer had his foot "severely and permanently damaged" by an airport escalator? Public safety advisory: Crocs hurt!
Why have you packed your day bag with enough supplies to survive a week in the wilderness—only to hop on the subway? You look like a human turtle and you hit unsuspecting riders squarely in the face every time you spin around to look at a map or talk to your travel companions. Please, pare down your massive day pack to something more streamlined. It's making my back hurt just looking at you.
Maybe leave your beloved New York Yankees T-shirt at home before you take your vacation to Boston. Flaunting the apparel of your vacation spot's rival is in poor taste, and it also immediately marks you as an outsider. If you don't want to antagonize everyone around you before you even open your mouth, wear something neutral instead.
The biggest travel faux pas is one that ruins your whole trip, so carefully consider your in-flight outfit before you fly. Touchy airline workers kick people off flights left and right over what they're wearing (or not wearing). From showing too much cleavage to wearing saggy pants, the self-appointed fashion police of the skies can boot you from a plane over what you're wearing. Stick to something you wouldn't be embarrassed to wear in front of your grandmother and you should be cleared for liftoff.

Kanye West announces name of his political party
He discussed his presidential ambitions in an interview with Power 92 Chicago.
By Jordan Darville
On Thursday, Kanye West sat down for an interview with DJ Pharris on Chicago's Power 92 Radio, as Complex points out. The two discussed a number of topics, including Kanye's ambitions for the U.S. presidency, which he initially declared at the 2015 VMAs. When asked if he was still "seriously considering" a run, Kanye responded "Yes, 100% could happen [in 2024]." He also revealed a possible name for his own independent party he'd run under: The Birthday Party.
Kanye gave a few hints to the kind of president he'd be without going into any detailed policy explanations. He reiterated his support of Donald Trump's economic policies ("Trump ain't fuckin' up the paper") while insisting he doesn't agree with all of his policies. He also touched on healthcare, a top concern of voters: "I'm going to make sure the medical industry flourishes," he said, adding that Malcolm X, Gandhi, and Martin Luther King Jr. were all assassinated because "they were so righteous and so liberal that they fuckin' up the paper. If you fuckin' up the paper your head gon' get knocked off."

The interview is Kanye's second in two days. On Wednesday, he appeared on 107.5 WGCI Chicago.
Hip-Hop, Kanye West

PSG and United eyeing Lewandowski transfer — report

Bayern Munich striker Robert Lewandowski has received offers from both Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester United, according to a report in German football magazine Kicker on Thursday.
Kicker reported that Lewandowski, whose current deal at Bayern runs until 2021, was unhappy with the club's plan to extend his contract by a single year, suggesting the player wanted a longer deal.
"At the moment, he has requests from Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain," the magazine wrote.
The 30-year-old Polish striker has scored 189 goals in 240 games for Bayern since joining in 2014, and has consistently been linked to Europe's biggest clubs.
He openly flirted with a move to Real Madrid last summer, before ultimately staying in Munich.
In an interview with Kicker in March, Lewandowski said he was open to extending his contract at Bayern.
"We have had early discussions, but it will take some time because at the moment, my focus is on the end of the season," he said.
"But yes, I can very much imagine staying longer."

Хермон, Джебел еш Шейх или Ермон ( — Дже́бел еш Шейх, букв. «планина на шейха»;  — Хермо́н; происхожда вероятно от харем — «затворен») е планински масив в Сирия и Ливан, като образува обособената южна, най-висока част на планината Антиливан. Простира се от североизток на югозапад на протежение около 40 km. На северозапад дълбоката долина Бекаа я отделя от планината Ливан, а на  югоизток чрез полегати склонове се спуска към Сирийската пустиня. Максимална височина връх Хермон (Еш Шейх 2813 m), най-високата точка на Сирия. Изградена е предимно от варовици и пясъчници и покрита със субтропични гори и храсти. От нея води началото си река река Йордан и десният ѝ приток Ал Хасбани.

It examines the impact of timescales of effect, explores the tension between long and short-term strategies for brands and businesses as well as providing evidence-based recommendations on how best to approach investment in advertising.
The report focuses on a growing tension that exists between short-term response activity and long-term brand-building. Increasingly, there is a tendency to use very short-term online metrics as primary performance measures and this has dangerous implications for long-term success.
In this summary presentation from their full report, Binet and Field outline 10 key principles from success from their wide-ranging research into IPA Databank cases operating over both short and long-term timescales.

Antonio Ascari (Mantova, 1888. szeptember 15. – Párizs, 1925. július 26.) olasz autóversenyző.

Ascari Mantua mellett született, az olasz Lombardia tartományban, egy kereskedő fiaként. Igen sikeres versenyző volt, többszörös futamgyőztes.

Versenyei
1919-ben kezdett versenyezni az olasz bajnokság legfelsőbb osztályában egy átalakított 1914-es Fiattal. Enzo Ferrari-val együtt részt vett az első Targa Florio-n, amit az első világháború után, 1919-ben rendeztek meg. Nem ért célba, egy árok állta útját.
A balszerencséje folytatódott 1920-ban és 1921-ben, de 1922-ben stabil negyedik helyen végzett. Egy Alfa Romeo volánja mögött 1923 áprilisában kis híján megnyerte a Targa Florio-t, második lett az Alfás csapattársa, Ugo Sivocci mögött, és májusban a cremona-i versenypályán megszerezte élete első nagydíjgyőzelmét. 1924-ben szintén megnyerte a P2 első versenyét Cremonában, majd a monzai nagydíj következett, ahol ismét nyert. 1925 jó évnek ígérkezett Antonio Ascari számára, az autója felülmúlta a versenytársakét a Spa-Francorchamps pályán, ahol megnyerte a legelső belga nagydíjat. A fölényének köszönhetően egy boxkiállás alatt még az evésre és ivásra is maradt ideje.

Halála
Ascari az 1925-ös francia nagydíjon vesztette életét 36 évesen. A baleset előtt első helyen állt Alfa Romeo P2-es gépével a Párizstól délre, az Autodrome de Montlhéry pályán tartott versenyen. Hétéves fiát, Alberto Ascarit hagyta hátra, aki később a Formula–1 meghatározó alakja lett, de szintén 36 évesen ő is meghalt versenybalesetben. Antonio Ascari a Cimitero Monumentale temetőben nyugszik, Milánóban.

Book Review: "You" and "Hidden Bodies" by Caroline Kepnes
Posted on January 14, 2019 by Emily Regan
Those of you who follow me on Instagram know that my Saturday plans were foiled by our car breaking down on the side of the freeway. Luckily, we were able to get a tow back to town and drop the car at the mechanic. We're still waiting for a call, but on Sunday, with nothing to do but wait, I decided to take the day off and do something I love: read.
Are you surprised? You shouldn't be surprised.
I've heard a lot of hype about the new show You on Netflix and, of course, before I watch it, I wanted to read the book.
Gossip Girl, but darker
WARNING: THIS POST CONTAINS SPOILERS!
READ AHEAD AT YOUR OWN RISK!
From the first page, I immediately fell in love with Caroline Kepnes's You. I don't often enjoy reading a second person narrative, but this one worked really well. Because Joe Goldberg is a stalker (and serial killer, more on that later), it makes sense for the second person voice because his whole world becomes about Beck.
I'm a huge fan of unreliable narrators–if they're done well. You is one such book where I feel this is done extremely well. You, the reader, can never fully trust what Joe is telling you because you know he's a little wonky in the head. His perception of a situation is colored by his dangerous psychosis so the reader is never quite sure if he's accurately assessing the situation. However, you do know that he's always being truthful–but truth is a malleable idea in You.
What I liked best about this book is that Caroline Kepnes created the character of Joe Goldberg so well that I found myself (very uncomfortably) rooting for him at various parts of the story. I had to keep actively reminding myself that Joe is a stalker and serial killer and no, I shouldn't be worried that Beck is going to find his stashes of her stuff all over his apartment when she shows up unexpectedly for the first time–I should be screaming, "BECK, GTFO OF THAT PSYCHO'S APARTMENT! RUN AWAY!" It's possible to relate Joe to a character like Dexter, but Dexter at least killed serial killers–you can get on board with a kind of honor code like that. Joe, on the other hand, simply "removes obstacles" if they get in his way.
Beck's fate was sealed from page one, so I wasn't surprised that she died. Sure, I hoped that she would be able to escape the book store while Joe was in the bathroom with the loud fan, but I knew it was a false hope. Joe is the kind of guy who captures a butterfly and crushes its wings or pins it to a board. He loves the idea of the butterfly more than the butterfly itself.
There were several times when Joe was a bit sloppy in his quest to capture Beck, but I loved that he got away with everything at the end of the book, seemingly ready to move onto his next victim, Amy Adam. So many stories have a happily ever after ending and there justice rains down on the wicked, and although this isn't a new idea, I still find it refreshing. It's like the ending of A Simple Favor by Darcey Bell (*SPOILERS*). I love that Emily gets away with everything and manages to frame both Sean and Stephanie. There's a perverse satisfaction in watching the bad guy win in fiction. That's how I felt about Joe in You. Every story is about the hero's journey and in You, the hero, or anti-hero, is Joe. Joe successfully completes his journey and is back in the book store, complimenting a beautiful woman's book purchases. It's sick, but I loved it.
In fact, I loved this book so much that I was THRILLED to find out there was a sequel, Hidden Bodies. I downloaded it to my Kindle immediately (Joe would be so disappointed I use a Kindle), and . . .
Hidden Bodies
. . . I'm not gonna lie, I was fairly disappointed in this book. I was pleased with the dark, sinister tone and ending of You and, for me, Hidden Bodies fell flat. We lose that engaging second person narrative and it switches to first person. Joe is still a serial killer and he ramps up his body count in this book, but this story felt more like an attempt at a redemptive arc for Joe rather than a peek into something dark and disturbing.
At first, I was optimistic. I liked the idea that Amy Adam played him and stole a bunch of rare books and that this time, Joe's stalking would be motivated by revenge, not "love." However, Joe loses that single-minded focus that I found so engaging in the first book and is so easily distracted by everything shiny in Los Angeles.
Amy quickly fades to the background and Joe's quest becomes more about self-preservation as he tries to move into this new Hollywood life he decided he wants, which feels ironic to me considering that his girlfriend's brother, Forty, is essentially Benji but dumber.
While I understand Joe's fixation on the mug of urine he left behind in the Salinger house in You, I was a little disappointed in Joe. Urine doesn't really hold much DNA so I doubt that would've been a huge help to the investigation into Peach's death. I know Joe doesn't have much formal education, but he's smart enough to where I would've expected him to do some research about how viable urine is for DNA.
The one thing I really did like about Hidden Bodies was the commentary at the end. Sure, Joe was arrested under suspicion for Beck and Peach's murders, but the implication is pretty strong that he's going to get off and not be held accountable for his crimes. He's a white man and, because of his pregnant girlfriend, he's now a rich white man. Joe gets to turn his life around and leave behind this wilting daisy chain of hidden bodies with virtually no consequences. If that isn't a commentary on our current judicial system, I don't know what is.
Seriously, fuck this guy.

Ive only read YOU but I felt the same way about Joe, I was rooting for him and then I had to step back and say "whoa, you aren't supposed to like him "

Right?? I feel like that's a testament to the author for creating such a creepy/sympathetic character.
You should try The Crazy One by Rebecca Markus. I do a comparative review on my page but it's much like YOU but with a female stalker and a celebrity
That sounds awesome, I'll definitely check it out and then read your comparative review!
I haven't vanished, I promise, I've just run out of spoons this week. I'm launching a new business with my best friend (@darkskyapothecary shameless plug) and this weekend, I'm all about sleep. But if any of you have spoons to spare, send them my way 🥄❤😊
