The Albanian breed is named after its place of origin -- Albania. A common horse breed, the Albanian is ideal for riding detail but is also useful in light draft work.
There were originally two types of the Albanian breed: the "Mountain Albanian" and the "Plain Albanian," a designation which came from the horses' breeding grounds. The Mountain Albanian is from 12.2 to 12.3 hands (around 49 inches, 125 centimeters) high, while the Plain Albanian is taller at around 13.2 hands (53 inches, 134 centimeters) high.
Though smaller and lighter, the Mountain Albanian has better endurance and higher resistance to disease. It is also slightly more agile, livelier, and more spirited than the Plain Albanian. For this reason, the Mountain Albanian is preferred for riding.
The Plain Albanian, meanwhile, is heavier and taller. Due to its more massive form, it is mainly used for draft work; i.e., pulling carriages and light loads. Its gait is easy and natural, and it is quite strong for its size.
Due to crossbreeding, however, the differences between the Mountain and the Plain types have blurred through the years and are no longer clearly apparent. Generally, the Albanian horse is chunky and stocky; it appears in common colors like chestnut, black, or gray.
The Albanian breed is part of the larger Balkan breed. As such, its physical characteristics are very similar to horses in the Balkan region. Specifically, their look and form is similar to those of the horses found in the mountains of Bosnia Herzegovina and the Rodope Mountain Range. When the Ottomans came and established the Ottoman Empire, the native Albanian horses were crossbred with Arab stock in the hope of improving the Albanian gene pool. Out-breeding with the Haflinger was also done to improve balance and ability to work in mountainous terrain.
While the Albanian was mainly bred in the past for riding and draft work, it is now often used for agricultural work. Recent crossbreeding efforts have focused on increasing the size of the Albanian to make it even more suitable as a farm horse.


If you ask my husband, there's always room for cornbread. And he'll eat twice as much cornbread if green chilies dot through the crumb. But what would he think if the cornbread came from half a world away? If it came from Zambia?
Mealie Bread is a good way to bridge the gap for picky eaters to try something from another culture.
The cornbread in Zambia is much like the cornbread in the USA – except it is made with fresh corn kernels instead of cornmeal. This makes the flavor come alive. Zambians call it mealie bread (mealie is just another name for corn; mealie bread is popular all over southern Africa).

The result is moist (bordering on juicy), naturally sweet, and great on the side of any autumn stew (such as Zambia's Spiced Tilapian Stew).
If you're lucky enough to slice into the mealie bread while it's still hot? Well… forget about having leftovers.
So why stud the mealie bread with chilies? Because Zambians love chili peppers. Chilies are available in the markets and grow easily in Zambia's hot climate.
I made our mealie bread with blackened poblanos to give a nice chili flavor, but almost no heat. This is great for people with kids. For more kick, try seeded jalapenos.
Today's recipe is based on the Mealie Bread I made for Swaziland, which omits the peppers in favor of a sweeter corn bread. This is also a bigger batch.
First, things first: blacken a poblano pepper over gas flame, or in a steel pan, or on the grill. You want the pepper to be black almost all over. Set aside to cool,then peel and dice it (leave seeds out to make a mild mealie bread).
If you'd like spicier mealie bread, use jalapenos.
Set aside 1 cup of corn.
Then, in a blender, pulse together the remaining corn, eggs and melted butter.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Then, stir in the corn mixture from the blender as well as the diced poblano.
Spread in a greased 8×8 baking dish and bake for 45-50 minutes.
Try to wait a few minutes to cut into it…But if you can't wait, that's fine, too!

*A little while back we made an amazing cornbread for Swaziland called Mealie Bread. This week we're cooking Zambia, and I saw multiple sources suggesting mealie bread. Again! I knew we couldn't recreate the same recipe, but when I found variations with charred chili peppers inside, I knew we were in business.

If you're lucky enough to slice into the mealie bread while it's still hot? Well… forget about having leftovers.If you don't have time to thaw the corn overnight in the fridge, feel free to thaw it on the stovetop over medium heat for a few minutes.

I haven't found a version of cornbread that I didn't like yet. Between the fresh corn and poblanos…this recipe sounds so good!
This sounds really good. Almost like a savoury pudding.
I have a freezer full of roasted Hatch chilies that I think will be wonderful in this bread!

Q: Savetxt file for images properties in a loop in python I create a program that calculates number os pixels of certain value of temperature in a Satellite image. I used:
for infile in glob.glob(*.tif)

for open all .tif images in a loop.The program is working fine, and print in the terminal de name and de pixels number of all images.
But when i use:
np.savetxt("pixels.txt", (File, pixelstemp1, pixelstemp2), fmt="%1s", delimiter=' ')

only saves the pixels number of the last image in the txt file. How can i do for save in a txt file the number os pixels of all images?
from pylab import *

import numpy

import glob, os

for infile in glob.glob("*04.tif"):
# pretend the rest of this is indented another level

dir, file = os.path.split(infile)
file, ext = os.path.splitext(infile)
sat=imread(infile)
satnovo=where(logical_and((418.-sat)-273.15>=-90,(418.-sat)-273.15<=-31),(418.-sat)-273.15,(660.-sat)/2-273.15)
temperatura=[-80,-70,-60,-50,-40,-30]
mask1=where(logical_and(satnovo<-30,satnovo>-80), 1,0)
mask2=where(logical_and(satnovo<-40 ,satnovo>-80),1,0)
mask3=where(logical_and(satnovo<-50, satnovo>-80),1,0)
mask4=where(logical_and(satnovo<-60, satnovo>-80),1,0)
mask5=where(logical_and(satnovo<-70, satnovo>-80),1,0)
x1=ma.masked_object(mask1,0)
pixels1=ma.count(x1)

x2=ma.masked_object(mask2,0)
pixels2=ma.count(x2)

x3=ma.masked_object(mask3,0)
pixels3=ma.count(x3)

x4=ma.masked_object(mask4,0)
pixels4=ma.count(x4)

x5=ma.masked_object(mask5,0)
pixels5=ma.count(x3)

print infile,pixels1,pixels2,pixels3,pixels4,pixels5
a=np.array([infile,pixels1,pixels2,pixels3,pixels4,pixels5],dtype=object)
np.savetxt("contapixels.txt",a[None],fmt='%1s', delimiter=' ')

A: As agf notes, there isn't any error as such in the few lines you've provided, but from your description I think you are calling  np.savetxt for each image? If so, you'll overwrite pixels.txt on each pass. You want to either store all the data in some temporary list and write it at the end:
pixeldata = []
for infile in glob.glob("*.tif"):
    # Do processing
    pixeldata.append((infile, pixelstemp1, pixelstemp2))
np.savetxt("pixels.txt", pixeldata, fmt="%1s", delimiter=' ')

Or you could open the file and then append to it in every pass through the loop. However, then you can't use np.savetxt, so the method above is probably better.

'Suspiria' Remake Director Took Out What Everyone Likes About Original
By Andrew Whalen @AndWhalen 03/17/17
Suzy Bannion (Jessica Harper) in Dario Argento's 1977 horror masterpiece, 'Suspiria.' International Classics
There's something refreshing in how nakedly Suspiria remake director Luca Guadagnino (I Am Love, A Bigger Splash) declaims everything that's great about the original in describing his new version of the classic Dario Argento horror movie. Since remakes are typically mid-to-high budget studio affairs, the PR machine is often working overdrive. And part of that inevitable press blitz is convincing the small sliver of moviegoers (and large portion of movie press) who care about the original movie that the remake will be all things: respectful of the original and boldly new, preserving everything that was loved and creating new love. This is, of course, bullshit. So congrats to Guadagnino for short-circuiting that whole messaging mess and just coming out with how unlike his Suspiria will be from 1977's.
Here's what Guadagnino had to say about his Suspiria (to Indiewire):
It's a film about guilt and motherhood. It has no primary colors in its color palette, unlike the original. It will be cold, evil and really dark.
That all sounds well and good. But it sure doesn't sound like Suspiria. Guilt and motherhood? The only "mother" in Suspiria is Mother Suspiriorum, the Lady of Sighs — an ancient witch who founded the ballet school where girls keep dying for mysterious and confusing reasons. Suspiria may not make a whole lot of sense, Argento is more about dream-logic than sense, but it is very much about primary colors.
This is Suspiria:

Vibrant 'Suspiria.' Photo: International Classics
Mysterious 'Suspiria.' Photo: International Classics
It's hard to imagine what other appeal there is in remaking Suspiria, if not to update its aesthetic madness and design-heavy gruesomeness. What's the point of a remake again?
As repulsive and stupid as a colorless Suspiria sounds, at least Guadagnino is making his own case for it. There's no evident slavishness here. Instead we're getting Tilda Swinton in old age makeup, Chloe Grace-Moretz and Mia Goth at a prestigious European dance academy with a rising body count. It may not be Suspiria as we know it, but who can resist a rising body count?
The Suspiria remake could be out this year or next, no one knows yet. In the meantime, try out Tenebre , Opera or Inferno.

Upon termination of the Order Buyer shall be entitled to all work in progress and purchased materials acquired for this contract by PMC. Shipment of these materials would immediately be made to a location specified by Buyer at Buyer's expense, once payment for the work in process has been received.
18. GENERAL: Notices to PMC and Buyer shall be given to the respective addresses herein set forth in the quotation or order acceptance or other document to which these Standard Terms and Conditions of Sale are attached and made a part.

This book could not have been written without the skilled and committed co-operation of a number of collaborators. The media coverage analysis that forms the second part of the book involved substantial data collection by our research assistants Giorgos Alimonos and Sigita Vergnes. We are grateful for the long hours and dedication that went into this data collection.
Special mention must be made of Dr Daniele Albertazzi's contribution to Chapter 7. He was jointly responsible with us for the design of the coding scheme that was used for this element of the data collection, carried out the data collection of the television coverage, and co-wrote the analysis of the media coverage in this chapter. He would like to acknowledge the contribution of Alex Choat and Louise Argile-Jackson, who assisted with collecting the data for this chapter and gave feedback on how to develop the coding sheet. He is grateful to Canterbury Christ's Church University College for financial support for his assistants.
Thanks also to Cathie Cremin at City University for downloading and filing numerous online articles. We would also like to thank colleagues at City University: Briony Fane, Oonagh Gormley, Steve Miller, Marina Prentoulis, Frank Webster and Tony Woodwiss.
We would also like to thank Julia Hall, our commissioning editor at Sage, who supported us throughout this project and never showed any doubts that we would deliver the manuscript to order. Thanks also to Jamilah Ahmed, Fabienne Pedroletti and Emily Lawrence at Sage, as well as Solveig Servian, the Copyeditor, and Audrey Scriven, the Proofreader, who also worked on this project. Thanks to Jan Taylor for her assistance with copyediting and proofing.
We would also like to acknowledge two inventions without which it would have been totally impossible to write this book: Hypertext Transfer Protocol and Google.
Postscript: The Publication of the Hutton Report1
The publication of Lord Hutton's Report was a media event in its own right, with the launch covered live on television and radio. Copies of the Report were delivered 24 hours in advance to the major interested parties (the government, Dr Kelly's family, and the BBC)2 on the condition that they signed confidentiality agreements binding them to public silence until the moment of publication. Lord Hutton made his presentation in the Royal Courts of Justice on Wednesday, 28 January 2004. His presentation was broadcast on two BBC television channels and on Sky News. However, the Sun newspaper had succeeded in penetrating the barrier of confidentiality and published a summary of the Report's main conclusions on the morning of the Report's launch.3 The BBC broadcast a summary of the Sun's material in its evening news bulletin of the previous day.4
The BBC's live coverage of Hutton's conclusions was part of a special three-hour programme. It included Prime Minister's Question Time live from Parliament in the half hour before Lord Hutton's oral presentation, and the Prime Minister's statement to the House of Commons in response to the Report, also broadcast live. This was followed by extended commentary in the studio. Sky News provided 'non-stop live coverage' of the event.5
Lord Hutton's terms of reference were to examine the circumstances surrounding the death of Dr David Kelly.6 In his Report he addressed three principal issues:
The creation of the government's dossiers on weapons of mass destruction (since it was Dr Kelly's briefing to Andrew Gilligan on this subject which was the start of the process leading to his death);
The role and nature of the BBC's report based on this briefing and the subsequent government complaints about it;
The process by which Dr Kelly's name was made known as Gilligan's source and its role in his death.7
On the first point, Hutton exonerated the government of the main charges of distortion of intelligence material ('sexing up' the document), arguing that the changes made at the government's behest were largely cosmetic, and that the relevant authority (the Joint Intelligence Committee) had ensured that the contents of the dossier were compatible with available intelligence.
On the second point, Hutton severely criticised Gilligan's broadcast, not only stating that the element of it already admitted to be wrong (see above, [Page 168]p. 147) was 'unfounded', but that other elements were too. Hutton also severely criticised the BBC's editorial and management processes, which had allowed the news report to be broadcast unchecked and resulted in senior BBC personnel not having an adequate subsequent overview of the issues involved in the government's complaint. The criticisms of the BBC were sufficiently severe that the chairman of the BBC Board of Governors (Gavyn Davies), the director general (Greg Dyke) and reporter Andrew Gilligan were obliged to resign.8
On the third point, Hutton argued that although the Ministry of Defence (MOD) could have done more to protect Dr Kelly from the consequences of his interview with Gilligan, he exonerated the government from any causal role in his suicide, and accepted the government's explanation that the process by which Dr Kelly's name became publicly known was justified by circumstances. Once Dr Kelly had told his employers that he was likely to be the source in question, and given that the Parliamentary Foreign Affairs Committee were investigating the circumstances in question, it was necessary for the MOD to say enough to avoid the charge of covering up activities by a government employee. Specifically, Hutton exonerated the Prime Minster from responsibility for the elements of the MOD's actions which directly resulted in Dr Kelly's name being made public.
On the day of the Report's launch, most media analysis and commentary consisted of summaries of the Report, of responses (or summaries of responses) by the leading players (the government, opposition, the BBC and the Kelly family), and brief comments about the relationship between the main thrust of the Report and previous expectations about its contents. In the latter case, the main divergence between the Report and expectations of it was that the government was found to be blameless, and the BBC found to be strongly at fault, whereas expectation was that blame would be more evenly apportioned.
On the day following publication (29 January 2004), results and reactions to the Hutton Report were the main story in the national daily newspapers. All national papers covered either the report itself, or its immediate impact, on the front pages, and approximately half of them dedicated special sections to it. With the exception of the red-top tabloids (and the Financial Times), all papers devoted more than ten pages to the story. The report was also front-page news in some American broadsheets and in major European titles such as Le Monde, Die Welt and the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung.
The common themes in UK press treatment of the report were:
Surprise at Lord Hutton's exoneration of the government in respect of all the accusations that had been made. This was close to universal: only the Sun and the Times did not express surprise, or recognise the surprise that other titles observed among the political class (the Sun had leaked the conclusion of the Report the day before).
Recognition that Lord Hutton's comments on the BBC's editorial and managerial processes had created a crisis for the Corporation.9
Recognition that the Kelly family would get little satisfaction from Lord Hutton's analysis of the process which led to the scientist's death.
However, the presence of common features of coverage hides significant variations in the treatment of these themes. First, surprise at the extent of the Report's exoneration of the government was expressed in the form of shock at a 'whitewash': the Independent, the Guardian, the Daily Mirror and the Daily Express all used this term and the Daily Mail used other forms of words to convey the same idea. Other titles, whilst maintaining a more objective tone, quoted the words of the outgoing chairman of the BBC Governors, Gavyn Davies, expressing incredulity at the lack of balance in Lord Hutton's judgments of the BBC and the government. The Times and the Sun concentrated more of their coverage on the blameworthiness of the BBC, a line fitting with News International's long-term agenda of attacking the Corporation (see above, pp. 155–6). Secondly, many titles included overt attacks upon the Hutton Report, blaming it for partiality and naiveté. For example, the Daily Mail called him 'indulgent' and 'understanding' towards Alastair Campbell (p. 10), and said his report 'does a great disservice to the British people' (p. 19); according to the Daily Mirror, he was 'exceedingly generous' in his judgment of the government (p. 8). However, not all titles adopted this line: the Daily Telegraph's coverage is mainly neutral, with the only overt attack upon the Report coming in an opinion column by the Conservative MP and Spectator editor Boris Johnson (p. 23).
Other newspapers concentrated on the fact that Lord Hutton's terms of reference prevented him (in his analysis) from asking certain questions that journalists judged pertinent, and most notably the question of the absent weapons of mass destruction. The Hutton Report focused on the honesty of the use of intelligence by the government, not on the reliability of the intelligence, and this was a theme frequently picked up in the coverage of the Report (Daily Express, p. 12; Daily Mirror, pp. 1 and 8; Daily Mail, pp. 18–19; Independent, pp. 1–2, 5, 6–7, 23; Guardian, p. 15; Daily Telegraph, pp. 7 and 23; Financial Times, p. 2).
One theme is clearly shared across the national press: the Conservative Party's attack on Tony Blair was a failure. The Conservative Party leader, Michael Howard, concentrated his attention on whether the Prime Minister had lied about his role in the process by which Dr Kelly's name became public. The national press either said nothing about Howard's tactics in the House of Commons, or commented that they were a failure; the most complementary note came in an anonymous quote to the effect that he 'had done his best' (Times, p. 46). It was subsequently noted in the press that Howard had cancelled pre-scheduled media interviews on 28 January, in recognition of his failure (Observer, 2.2.04: 17).
Two important media issues have emerged following the publication of the Hutton Report. The first concerns the question of journalistic procedure and the second the future governance of the BBC.
Lord Hutton said in his Report that:
[Page 170]The communication by the media of information (including information obtained by investigative reporters) on matters of public interest and importance is a vital part of life in a democratic society. However the right to communicate such information is subject to the qualification (which itself exists for the benefit of a democratic society) that false accusations of fact impugning the integrity of others, including politicians, should not be made by the media. Where a reporter is intending to broadcast or publish information impugning the integrity of others, the management of his broadcasting company or newspaper should ensure that a system is in place whereby his editor or editors give careful consideration to the wording of the report and to whether it is right in all the circumstances to broadcast or publish it. (Report, para. 291, also in para. 53 (2) of the oral presentation, at http://www.the-hutton-inquiry.org.uk/content/rulings/ statement280104.htm)
This element in Lord Hutton's report was widely commented on in the media in the days following the Report's publication (for example, Channel 4 News, 7.00 pm, 28.1.04; Observer, 1.2.04: 1, 21). All three BBC 'casualties' of the Report argued that Hutton was wrong in this respect. Gavyn Davies asked: 'are his conclusions on restricting the use of unverifiable sources in British journalism based on sound law and, if applied, would they constitute a threat to the freedom of the press?', a theme echoed in Greg Dyke's accusation – based on consultation with the BBC's lawyers – that Hutton was wrong in law in this respect and that the implications could be damaging for the media, preventing newspapers and broadcasters from reporting the concerns of whistleblowers or the comments of government insiders unless there was proof that what they were saying was true. Andrew Gilligan made the same point in his resignation statement.10 The issue was clearly stated in the Guardian (29.1.04):
The current law of defamation acknowledges the possibility of the right to be wrong and it is important that the civil courts take a view over whether a story was in the public interest, the nature of the sources of the information, and journalistic and news organisation checks. (http://www.media.guardian.co.uk/huttoninquiry/story/0,13812,1133968,00.html)
The Guardian quoted Lord Lester QC to support this position:
I very much hope Lord Hutton's report will not be misinterpreted as a signal for greater self-censorship or government interference. The BBC, like the rest of the media, must be free to publish opinions honestly believed to be true from apparently reputable and senior sources on matters of legitimate public interest or comment. (http://www.guardian.co.uk/guardianpolitics/story/ 0,3605,1133734,00.html).
Before the publication of the Hutton Report (and no doubt in anticipation of criticisms to emerge) the BBC made two main changes to their journalism procedures: single-source stories were to be more rigorously checked; the 'Today' programme's 'two-ways'11 were to be more [Page 171]strictly policed. They also added three elements to their accountability mechanisms: BBC journalists were no longer to be allowed to write for newspapers;12 a deputy director general, Mark Byford,13 was appointed to oversee a strengthened complaints unit; and the Governors were to be provided with a dedicated support unit making them less reliant on management for information.
Following his appointment as acting director general of the BBC, Mark Byford announced that there would be an internal inquiry at the Corporation into what went wrong over the Andrew Gilligan affair. It would examine how the BBC could avoid making similar mistakes in the future and how the Corporation could work to rebuild trust.
Only the Guardian newspaper (so far) has issued new guidelines, which includes a section on the use of sources which says journalists should use anonymous sources sparingly and that, except in exceptional circumstances, they should avoid any use of anonymous pejorative quotes. The guidelines also tell staff to avoid 'flamming' or 'sexing up' stories, and to put allegations to the people about whom they are writing in good time.14
In his resignation statement, Gavyn Davies also issued a warning against future attempts to change the regulatory system of the BBC:
He (Hutton) has not suggested that the governance of the BBC has systemic defects which need to be remedied. Critics of the system should take careful note of this. But he has concluded that in the highly unusual circumstances of last summer, the governors should have conducted their own investigation of Mr Campbell's complaints.
For the BBC itself, the current structure of having the director general as editor in chief is untenable. What was suitable 80 years ago when the BBC was in its infancy is unworkable in an age of 24/7 news broadcasting on multiple television and radio channels when the BBC is producing 40 hours of news a day. It is conceivable that had Greg Dyke not been editor in chief it would probably have been Richard Sambrook, head of news, who would have had to resign.
It is fortunate for the BBC that the Hutton episode had not fully unravelled before the passing of the Communications Act (2003) which set up a new independent industry regulator Ofcom (Office of Communications). At the time the Bill was working its way through the House of Commons most of commercial broadcasting called for the BBC to come under the aegis of the new regulator. It is inevitable that pressure will increase during the current review of the BBC leading to charter renewal due in 2006 for independent regulation of the BBC. Questions about whether the BBC Governors are in the best position to act as executive and regulator will continue.15 Ofcom (set to become a very powerful player in the new media landscape) is conducting its own review of public service broadcasting and various think tanks have suggested that there should be an independent regulator of the BBC.
[Page 172]Despite the publication of the Hutton Report, the controversy surrounding the issue of WMDs and the quality of intelligence which led to war is still being debated in the media. Following the announcement by President Bush of a bipartisan inquiry into the US' Iraqi intelligence, the British government announced (3 February 2004) to Parliament that it was setting up its own inquiry. Former cabinet secretary Lord Butler will chair a six-member committee looking at whether the pre-war intelligence was right or wrong.

7 Lord Hutton presents these as five issues: we have condensed his presentation at this point.
8 In a 'rallying round' of support for the BBC, and Greg Dyke in particular, a full-page paid advertisement, headed 'The independence of the BBC, was taken out in The Daily Telegraph (31.1.04: 9) by employees, presenters, reporters and contributors of the corporation.
9 This theme continued to be very prominent in reporting in subsequent days.
10 For a full text of Gilligan's statement see http://media.guardian.co.uk/huttoninquiry/story/0,13812,1135697,00.html.
11 It was the 'two-way' between the journalist Andrew Gilligan and presenter John Humphrys on the BBC's Today programme which began the whole row.
12 Gilligan had written an article for the Mail on Sunday, following his broadcast report, in which he claimed that Dr David Kelly had named Alistair Campbell, Prime Minister Blair's Director of Communication as the person who had 'sexed up' the September 2002 dossier.
13 Byford was appointed, by the Governors, as acting director general of the BBC following the resignation of Greg Dyke on 26 January 2004.

Discussion in 'Outerwear' started by Physicist, May 29, 2013.
I'd like to get a list of people and businesses who repair/restore leather jackets. Zipper replacements, liner repair/replacement, patching, stitching, etc.
I've see Insurrection mentioned in this forum. But they are currently not doing outside repairs. And they referred me to http://www.taylorleatherrepair.com in California.
Any others that you all recommend?
If anyone has had any experience with them, I'm curious to know how it all turned out.
This may be tricky. It's often said there are no good deals when it comes to craft repair - you pay top dollar or you wish you had. Do let us know what you find out and good luck.
They swapped out the main zipper to be a right hand pull.
Here's a jacket I just bought. Needs a zipper. And some liner work. It's a Cooper "Fonz".
I just had a patch put on my Aero Bronco A-2 by Mr. B. Can't say enough about him and his work. Old school at it's finest!
There's a Taylors Leather located in Tullahoma Tn that does repairs and alterations.
I can endorse Dena at Great Leather without reservation. Excellent work by a true craftswoman and a very nice lady.
Sent three jackets to Dena at Greatleather, thanks to your endorsement.
I second Barini Leather. I haven't seen their repairs, but alterations are top notch.
I obtained a couple more jackets from an eBay auction. A DSCP Cockpit A2, and a DSCP Excelled G1.
Tell me, please, how can I remove those velcro tags on the A2? Do they simply peel off? Should I heat it with a hair dryer first?

#Sir Franklyn Wilson told Tribune Business it was impossible to see the state-owned utility monopoly, and its electricity costs, "getting any worse" than they are now, estimating that its struggles were costing The Bahamas a "conservative" $10m per month.
#Arguing that it was "so obvious what needs to happen" to transform BPL, the Arawak Homes and Sunshine Holdings chairman said it came down to "executing" changes that had been recognised as critical since the last Ingraham administration.
#Focusing on The Bahamas' economic prospects in 2019, Sir Franklyn added that it would be similarly "bad news" if the Minnis administration continues to find itself holding the Grand Lucayan resort come year-end.
#And he expressed hope that the private sector, aided by ongoing US economic growth momentum, would find a way to "overcome the shortcomings in government" and "political immaturity and divisiveness" among The Bahamas' leaders.

NBA strikes deal with MGM Resorts to provide data to bettors
NEW YORK — The NBA and WNBA will now share official data with MGM Resorts, a major win for the leagues as they prepare for the anticipated growth of sports betting across the country.
MGM will pay the NBA for that data to use in determining outcomes of various bets. The NBA's stance has been that getting accurate stats to bettors is critical so the player knows what they're betting on and so the casinos will know when to pay out or not, and MGM is the first casino to make an arrangement with the league for those numbers.
Terms of Tuesday's deal — the first between a major U.S. sports league and a casino — were not disclosed, other than it's a multiyear arrangement.
"I know the value of data," MGM chairman and CEO James Murren said. "To be able to have the official NBA data for sports bettors around the world is very valuable. I was willing to, and I've paid for that."
NBA Commissioner Adam Silver, who has been talking with Murren about such an arrangement for weeks, said the leagues believe they're getting adequately compensated for the data.
"It's a leap of faith on both sides," Silver said. "It's a deal moderate in length where I think we can both step back and assess as we go and see, 'Is it working? Is this deal fair? Are we providing the consumers with the right type of experience?"'
Silver said the league was trying to anticipate what might await down the road.
"We have a sense of the magnitude of the current business and a sense of where things may go over the next few years," he said. "And I'd say we generally tried to approximate in a sense to come up with what we thought was fair compensation."
How MGM will get that data remains unclear.
NBA stat data is distributed globally by Sportradar, which sends it to media outlets, broadcasters and betting outlets outside the U.S. — but not inside this country, at least for now. With the start of preseason games still about two months away, there's plenty of time for those matters to get worked out.
"What this relationship entails is access to official data for the many casinos that MGM operates," Silver said. "It's the use of the NBA's intellectual property and as we've discussed before we're very focused on integrity provisions to protect our fans, to protect those who choose to engage and bet on the NBA."
MGM will be an official casino partner for the league, but will not have exclusive rights to the data. The NBA still can, and likely will, try to make deals with other casinos who will be offering sports betting in various states or through mobile apps.
There will be cross-promotion as well: MGM will be advertised on NBA assets like NBA TV, NBA.com, the NBA App and social media platforms. In turn, MGM will promote the NBA on its betting platforms.
The NBA and MGM have been in business together before. MGM owns the WNBA's Las Vegas Aces, who play inside the Mandalay Bay casino, and is also a presenter of the NBA Summer League.
"This is a whole new world for us," Silver said.

AlAan TV: You and your family have been under huge pressures, tell us what happened to your son Hassan and your brother Mahdi?
Faezeh Hashemi Rafsanjani: Of course what happened to us is nothing compared to what other people experienced and I feel embarrassed if I want to explain what our family has been through.
My son came to Iran at the beginning of the Persian year and he was arrested at airport. They kept his passport for 7 months, they gave him his passport after his school already started and his visa was expired.
For my brother Mahdi, they created special false atmosphere in Iran. They made up problems and fabricated cases against him. They even got confessions against him from some other prisoners which is against the law.
I don't want to go deeply into details because it is not about us or Mahdi, it is all about people going to prisons because they are getting fabricated cases and false confessions.
All the trials and sentences issued recently are not in the legal framework, Mahdi is busy with his study and business but there are obstacles against in his return to Iran.

The Golden State Warriors' first round NBA playoffs opponent, the Los Angeles Clippers, are the biggest first round playoff underdogs in 30 years.
The Clippers, who start their best-of-seven matchup with the Warriors on Saturday, have 100:1 odds to upset the two-time defending champions, according to the Superbook at Westgate Las Vegas.
At the Superbook, the Dubs are -50,000 to defeat the Clippers in the first round this season, which means that you would have to bet $50,000 on the Warriors for the chance to win $100. According to SportsOddHistory.com, only the 2013 Milwaukee Bucks (playing the Miami Heat), the 1992 Miami Heat (playing the Chicago Bulls), and the 2016 Memphis Grizzlies (playing the San Antonio Spurs), had greater than 50:1 odds to make it out of the first round.
The Bucks and Heat had 75:1 odds in their respective playoff showdowns and the Grizzlies were 66:1 to beat the Spurs in 2016. Each of those teams were swept by the favorites in the series.
Largest series underdogs in an NBA playoffs series since 1988
2019: LAC 100-1 vs GSW
2013: MIL 75-1 vs MIA
1992: MIA 75-1 vs CHI
2016: MEM 66-1 vs SAS
The latter three series each resulted in a sweep

The Warriors faced the Clippers in the past week in their final regular season home game at Oracle Arena. In that match, the Dubs beat the Clips 131-104, clinching the top seed in the Western Conference and home court advantage throughout their run in the playoffs.
ESPN is reporting that John Murray, the director of race and sports at SuperBook, said that there were nine bets on the Clippers as of Friday morning, ranging from $2 to $100. The largest bet would pay $10,000 if the Clippers can manage to beat the Warriors.
Golden State are the favorites to win the NBA Finals this year and have been all season. They finished their regular season on April 10 with a 132-117 loss to the Memphis Grizzlies. If the Warriors win the championship they would be only the fifth NBA franchise to three-peat.
The Bucks have the next best odds to win the 2019 NBA Finals going into the playoffs at +600, followed by the Houston Rockets at +800, Toronto Raptors at +1,200 and Philadelphia 76ers +1,200.

Living in the Capital of our beloved country Czech Republic, we hear the languages of the world every day. Whether on a tram, a metro or in the park, a day doesn't go by when we can't hear neighbors chatting away in their native language. And we all wonder how we can speak different languages and also teach our kids. Teaching a non-native language can be hard for parents and kids, but there are ways to make the journey easy.
Petr Kuznetsov transformed his career in tennis for a university education while remaining a passionate student of the game. He has been a sports journalist and an active coach in Russia, Portugal and here in the Czech Republic. He moved to Prague, last year to continue his coaching work, this time working almost exclusively with kids. He had a chance to sit down with Little Panda and tell us why tennis is a great sport for kids and how it helps in a child's mental and physical development.
Children: Tantrums, Sensitivity, Growing up!
Building a child's character is a hard job. Especially if you are in the middle of a move or just relocating. Managing tantrums, sensitivity in kids and tiding over teenage need not be all so bad. Tatiana Mironova, Child Psychologist, spoke to us about this and gave us her tried and tested opinion.
Continue reading Children: Tantrums, Sensitivity, Growing up!
Hear the word relocation and we all are into planning the nitty gritty and details right from immigration papers, packers, work handovers, school leaving letters and doctor certificates. And in between all the busy days of planning the move and settling into a new place, it's easy to overlook or skip the feelings of anxiety as a family.
Most of us parents went to school in a regular form of the education system with a set curriculum and pattern. But today, choosing the form of education while picking a school for our own kids, has become hard for parents as we are spoilt for choice!
Globalisation has given us many gifts and along with it a basket of basic challenges. With a lot of people working and relocating across continents, language is one area that is always under the radar of parents while raising kids. Language challenges that we dealt with as adults when we moved out of our native countries are now faced by our children at a much younger age.
We all loved birthdays as kids – I mean the entire show with buntings, balloons, cake and gifts. And how we all dreamed of parties ripped off from fairy tales or with our favorite toy characters. Well, it's only now, as parents that many of us understand the immeasurable amount of effort that goes into planning, creating and celebrating a special day.

I think after some update my HUD no longer shows up in the game. I used to see tire temps, lap times, position, everything.
But now I see nothing.
thanks and sorry for dumb question, I did google around for answer. No luck.
Can you still cycle through all the other hud options?
What keys do you use to display or cycle the HUD? I tried everything.

Alpengirl offers several overnight adventure camps for girls in Montana. Pre-teen and teen girls ages 11 thru 16 have a choice of adventure camps that range from 1-2 weeks duration.
Our Montana summer camps for girls begin in Bozeman, MT and include adventure travel and camping across southwest Montana from Bozeman and Livingston to West Yellowstone and Ennis before heading back to Bozeman for an end of camp celebration.
The best part about joining in on a summer camp in Montana with Alpengirl is our featured outdoor adventure activity: backpacking and camping at alpine lakes in the Tobacco Root, Spanish Peak and Gallatin Ranges.
Hidden Lake (elevation 9,025 ft) is a beautiful blue lake enclosed on the south by a high rocky ridge and on the north by big green spruce trees. There are actually several lakes in the area - some of which are "hidden" so we'll find the best one! The Spanish Lakes is a group of four alpine lakes sitting at about 8,800 ft high above the river valley below near Big Sky, Montana.
There's lots more to do in Montana with Alpengirl Camps this summer! Stand up paddle boarding, canoeing and kayaking are favorite days at summer camp near Ennis, MT. Rock climbing followed by an evening of hot spring soaking at our Bozeman summer camp is a perfect day for outdoor girls. Horseback riding on the continental divide along the Idaho - Montana border near Yellowstone National Park is always the best!
