Dylan Quinn 16, identified as Berkley crash victim
Sean Hayhurst identified as Chesapeake fatal vehicle crash
Dylan Quinn Death – According to the office of the Bristol County District Attorney, a 16-year-old boy from Rehoboth, Massachusetts passed away early on Sunday morning as a consequence of injuries sustained in an incident involving a single vehicle that occurred in Berkley, Massachusetts. The district attorney has stated that the collision took place at 7:30 in the morning in the area of 76 Myricks Street. According to the office of the district attorney, the victim, who has been identified by investigators as Dylan Quinn, was a passenger in a Mazda pickup truck that was being driven by a man buddy who was also 16 years old. When emergency personnel arrived, they saw that the car had flipped onto its top in the middle of the road.
Information from officials
According to the officials, Quinn was transported to Saint Luke's Hospital in New Bedford, but he was pronounced dead once he arrived there. Hasbro Children's Hospital in Providence received the driver, who was not immediately named, and provided medical care for injuries that were not considered to be life-threatening. When the collision took place, the two pals were reportedly on their way back to Quinn's friend's house after having just left a neighboring Dunkin' Donuts and conducting what is described by the District Attorney as an initial investigation. According to the findings of the investigation, the vehicle was heading south when it collided with a tree and a utility pole, rolled over, and finally came to rest on the roadway where it had been traveling.
Alexandre Magalhaes stated
According to Alexandre Magalhaes, the administrator of schools in Bristol-Plymouth, Quinn was a student at Bristol-Plymouth Regional Technical School. In a written statement, Magalhaes expressed everyone's feelings by saying, "We are all deeply saddened to hear of this tragic loss," "Our thoughts and condolences go out to the family and friends of this student and the entire school community." Magalhaes stated that there would be counselors accessible at the school beginning on Monday morning to assist pupils and staff members in coping with the tragic event. Investigations were being conducted by the Berkley Police Department as well as the Massachusetts State Police.

Evolving Angels - A collection of nine stories with a disability theme has been written by V S Anjana. The book contains short stories about issues and challenges faced by people with disabilities.
Anjana has cerebral palsy and she had always wanted to write stories for children.
After she graduated in BA Communicative English, she was not able to get a job. She was then motivated to write the stories.
The stories aim to create awareness about inclusion in the society. The story titled `Football' is about a group of children who learn sign language to help a friend with hearing and speech impairment.
Another story 'puzzle' is about a teacher who finds fun activities for a disabled student to help him feel connected.
The book can be purchased from Amazon India website.


I have super sensitive skin. It can be a pain sometimes (quite literally), but it's also forced me over the years to resort to super gentle, non-toxic skincare products. One of my current skincare favorites is this DIY herb infused whipped body butter.
Now if you're not the DIY type, then there's always the Pronounce Skincare lavender infused body lotion or Jess's beautiful body butters that are nourishing and gentle on skin. However, when I have time I love to get my hands dirty in the kitchen with a little body care project! This recipe has just a few skin nourishing and simple ingredients, so it's easy to put together. Your friends will think you're a DIY genius though.
Calendula is one of my favorite herbs because it's soothing for almost any skin condition you can think of. I use it in my herbal salve for eczema and psoriasis, but it's also great for sunburns, bug bites, and irritated skin. Learn more about calendula right here on Scratch Mommy, including a beautiful calendula infused and naturally tinted DIY lip balm and a DIY healing hand salve.
In fact, you can grab over 15 DIY recipes right here on Scratch Mommy using calendula!
The other herb in this body butter recipe is lavender. I seriously use lavender all the time. You know that game you play where you have to choose 3 things to take with you to a deserted island? Well, I'd bring lavender with me. Not only is it soothing to skin irritations, but it helps repair the skin. It also has some anti-inflammatory properties, so it's my go to for stopping itchy bug bites.
Check out over 20 posts right here on Scratch Mommy that use beautiful lavender herb!
There are tons of different carrier oils available depending on your use and skin type. You can get the low down on how to choose carrier oils here on Pronounce Skincare.
I like coconut oil a lot, but it can clog pores and is rather heavy on the skin. This makes it perfect for a massage, but used alone in a body butter and you start to feel like you're on a slip and slide. It does have a lot of skin benefits and it's solid at room temperature which makes it very versatile so I like to include some in this DIY herb infused whipped body butter.
First, it is easier than you think! You'll begin by infusing your herbs into the oil. There are several ways to do this. I like to use the 3 day crockpot method and you can see how to do that here. Even though it takes longer, the simplest way to infuse your oil is with the solar method.
To use the solar method: Place your herbs into a pint size mason jar. Melt the coconut oil, and pour this and the grapeseed oil over the herbs. Make sure the herbs are completely covered by oil and set it in a sunny location for several weeks. Shake daily. After 2-4 weeks, strain the herbs using a cheesecloth or a clean t-shirt and you have a lovely infused oil.
Make an herbal infusion with the coconut oil, grapeseed oil, lavender, and calendula as detailed above.
Measure your infused oil and make sure you have ½ cup. Add more grapeseed oil if you're a little short.
In a saucepan over super low heat or a double boiler, add the cocoa butter, infused oil, and shea butter. Stir consistently just until melted.
Pour the mixture into a clean mixing bowl and transfer to the fridge until just solid. You should check and stir every now and then to ensure it is consistent throughout as it solidifies.
Using the whisk attachment on your mixer, beat the body butter until it's fluffy and increased in size. It will look like whipped cream.
Store in glass jars or metal tins that you can find in the Pronounce Skincare Shop and enjoy your silky smooth skin!
Visit the Pronounce Skincare Shop for gorgeous body butters and body lotions, delectable salves, and much more.
how many days we can use it?
Hi! This will last you a good, long while. Just make sure that you store this in a cool, dry place. Always apply with clean hands. The shelf-life of these ingredients is a year, some more. You'll use this up long before it would 'be off'. Happy DIYing!
Can you instead of infusing the flowers in the oils just add essential oils of lavender and calendula?
Hi there. Thanks for stopping by. 🙂 This recipe is a body butter, not a lotion. A lotion is a lotion (by definition) because it has water…a butter does not.
My lavender-infused body lotion (and my lavender-infused face lotion) both have water. I haven't found any typical preservatives that I like, but I do add vitamin E and rosemary antioxidant oil…which are as close as you can get to using a preservative. They help my lotion stay good for a long while. Hope this helps…and thanks again for the kind words and for stopping by!


As the Connected Learning coach for Virginia Commonwealth University's Collaborative Curiosity: Designing Community Engaged Research, I need to talk about the role of images and videos in digital communication – specifically blog posts – sooner rather than later.
Traditionally, academics have been taught to privilege text over other forms of communication for many reasons. Paper-based essays and standard word processing programs really aren't designed for images, let alone videos. However, in Collaborative Curiosity we blog, and blogging takes place on the web. Furthermore, one of the purposes of our writing assignments is to practice being engaging and accessible to non-academics. This is NOT the place or the time to practice lingo (in fact, the rubics specifically downgrade for lingo). If no one understands what we are saying then we might as well not say it at all.
Why do we embed images and video?
If you listen to the one minute clip, you'll hear her hit several big ideas: images help readers grasp the big picture, understand difficult concepts, build a mental picture they can remember, and bring stories to life.
To create an aesthetic. Students often add a featured image to their posts – something to set the mood or capture the flavor. Note my featured image at the top of this post. It's a picture I took of myself taking a picture. It's meant to warn you that in this post we are going to talk about images and do-it-yourself-style creative composition. You can also think about these "aesthetic" photos like the pictures on book covers. They draw people towards them. Take a look at a screenshot I took of the Collaborative Curiosity bloggregate earlier today.
You can see that some of these have images and others do not. Which capture your attention? Which would you prefer to click on and read?
To illustrate specific points within the narrative. This gets to Sydney's point that sometimes we need help understanding what's happening in the blog post. An image can go along way in securing things in our memories – especially if you are writing about something that is abstract or unknown to your reader. In my research, effective student explanations and descriptions were often accompanied by images or video demonstrations.
To advance the narrative. Sometimes you cannot say what you want to say effectively without videos or images. Many students included infographics, tables, or graphics so that they could speak to the image rather than describing it all in text. Several made their own "how-to" videos since they could not find what they wanted on YouTube. Finally, images can provide evidence or support arguments, as they did in my recent StoryMap of the impact of Collaborative Curiosity on international educational research communities.
To demonstrate connected learning. Students used images or videos to support the documentation of connections they were making across contexts, disciplines, people, and time. For example, they would include personal photographs to show how they had experienced something relevant to what was being discussed by the class. Then they would describe the connection. These were particularly powerful examples of connected learning and almost always occurred when the student had made the image/video/graphic themselves.
The technical stuff. Embedding images and videos on blogging platforms such as WordPress is fairly straightforward, but if you need a tutorial google it. You'll find things like this and this and this.
The citation stuff. You need to credit creators of images and videos just as you would authors of text. It's best/safest to use public domain or Creative Commons licensed work. VCU Libraries has published some very useful information on creative commons licensing. Alternatively, use or make your own images, infographics, videos, etc….That's always safe and can lead to some of the best learning too. Linking back to the original source can be the easiest way to give excellent credit – you can do this in the caption of the photo or in the body of the surrounding text. If you cannot insert a caption (say, for instance, we are talking about a featured image), then you can always insert the information onto the photo using Paint or Powerpoint or any number of image annotation apps. In the case of YouTube or Vimeo videos, the video itself provides a link back to the original posting…in other words, it self-cites. If you go back to my previous posts (here or here) you'll see that I made a special point of adding citations on my images. I think most of these are images I uploaded to PowerPoint, added a textbox for credit information, and then exported as a .JPEG.
Where do I get good images or videos?
Your camera phone. I made that video of Sydney on my iphone and uploaded it to iMovie for the captions, though I could have just uploaded it directly to YouTube if I hadn't wanted to get fancy.
PowerPoint. You can make some fine graphics on PowerPoint (or Keynote) and download the slide as a .PNG or .JPG file. Examples? Check out the graphic in I blog post I wrote about my dream job. It was made in PowerPoint.
Draw a picture on paper then take a picture of it. I'm serious. Add some filters, crop the edges. It's old school, but still you can make a nice concept map or picture or stick figure cartoon that way. This idea is a definite "DO IT" for you doodlers and artists out there.
Canva.com. Easy, free graphic design tool. Last year's #curiouscolabbers got really into using it, and I'm more than happy to help anyone with it at any point. I'm a little obsessed with Canva.com.
YouTube or Vimeo for videos. Of course.
Unsplash.com for some of the most beautiful and eclectic images available for free use. You need to read the "use" info on this site, but most of these images are available to use without giving credit to the photographer…as a rule I credit the photographer, because I am a photographer and I would want my work credited. Also, don't get confused by the language on the site that says you should sign up to receive 10 free downloadable pics a month…that's only if you want them to email you ten photos a month…I guess so that you don't have to search and pick them? You can search the site and download at will without signing up for anything.
Flickr.com. Check out the screenshot below. Search for photos with your keyword, then filter by license to show only CC licensed work. Until I stumbled upon Unsplash, all of my CC licensed photos came from Flickr.
There are so many reasons to consider embedding images and videos into your blog posts, but consider this argument: Learning how to do it well will not only enhance your ability to express yourself, but it will enhance the likelihood that your audience will find your work accessible and engaging. So embed images and videos. Please. It's not an accessory, it's an essential part of blogging.
Sydney did a great job. Very impressive.
Super helpful! Thanks a bunch…time to up the blogging ante!
Serra, I've seen your posts. You're doing great. Keep at it. I'm still learning and upping my own ante on a weekly basis, but you should have seen my first blog. I did all these wild things with fonts and colors…it was barely legible. Not really sure what was going on with all that! So please believe me when I say you're doing a great job :).


Marble is a metamorphic rock found in the mountainous regions of most countries of the world. Marble is formed from the re-crystallization of limestone under intense pressure and high temperatures within the Earth. During this process, other minerals are introduced into the structure, which produce the beautiful colors and veining that characterize marble. Its color varies from white to black, being sometimes yellow, red and green, and frequently beautifully veined or clouded. Add in the different types of finishes, such as polished, honed, and leathered, the possibilities are endless! With so many beautiful patterns and colors to choose from, marble is a favorite stone used for kitchen and bathroom countertops.
Marble with its inherent warmth, adds a sophisticated element to the area in which it is installed. Due to the natural characteristics of these stones, marble countertops require some special care and maintenance. Since marbles consist of calcite crystal, they are vulnerable to attack by mild acids, including those commonly found in kitchen and bar settings. Polished marble is especially susceptible to acids and any spills should be immediately cleaned up. Your marble countertop will be sealed after installation and a sealer should be applied annually. With marble, there is always a possibility of scratching and staining, as the stone is not as hard as a granite surface. After regular use, your marble countertop will develop its own unique patina and personality.
Atlanta Marble Countertops - Marble is an excellent stone to use in homes, offices and other buildings. Bottega is here to satisfy all of your Atlanta marble needs. Our slabs are perfect for kitchen and bathroom countertops. Give us a call and let our staff assist you in choosing the right marble for your home!

Lexington prevails over Sons of Confederate Veterans in free speech challenge to city ordinance limiting use of city-owned flag standards
July 8, 2013 by Kevin C. Walsh
The Fourth Circuit last week unanimously affirmed the dismissal of a Free Speech and related civil contempt claim brought by a Confederate veterans' group who wish to fly the Confederate flag on city-owned flag standards in Lexington, Virginia during the group's Lee-Jackson Day parade. Judge King wrote the opinion for the court in Sons of Confederate Veterans, Virginia Division v. Lexington, in which Judge Diaz and Judge Floyd joined. (For prior coverage, including links to early news stories, see How Appealing.)
Based on the facts described in the opinion, the Fourth Circuit's decision seems to reach the right outcome on the First Amendment and civil contempt claims (although it would have been helpful to know a little bit more about the wording of the earlier consent decree).
The interesting First Amendment issue raised by the case is the extent to which government motive matters when the government converts a designated public forum to a nonpublic forum. The relevance of legislative motivation is one of the most vexing issues in constitutional law, but the panel opinion does not provide too much discussion of this issue.

I was under the impresson that, for free speech cases, United States v. O'Brien sort of ended the debate about "actual" governmental motives.
on July 8, 2013 at 3:06 pm Kevin C. Walsh
Yes, O'Brien does stand as a general commitment to avoid inquiries into subjective legislative purpose in First Amendment analysis. But legislative motive may still matter for various reasons. For example, Justice Kagan argued in a 1996 law review article that "notwithstanding the Court's protestations in O'Brien, . . . First Amendment law, as developed by the Supreme Court over the past several decades, has as its primary, though unstated, object the discovery of improper governmental motives."

BP Might Buy Some BHP Billiton U.S. Shale Assets
By Tsvetana Paraskova - May 03, 2018, 10:00 PM CDT
Supermajor BP is studying some of the onshore U.S. shale assets put up for sale by BHP Billiton, as the UK giant looks to more shale exposure, Bloomberg reported on Thursday, quoting people familiar with the matter.
BP has hired Morgan Stanley to advise on a possible offer, but no decision has been made yet, and BP could drop the plan to bid for some BHP assets, according to Bloomberg's sources.
BP is said to be studying whether it could team up with other companies in a joint bid, or possibly swap some conventional oil and gas assets for some of BHP's shale assets, the sources said. All three companies involved—BP, BHP, and Morgan Stanley—declined to comment on the sale for Bloomberg.
Last summer, BHP Billiton said that it would start seeking buyers for its U.S. shale oil and gas operations after deciding that this business is non-core.
BHP is selling its assets in the Permian, Eagle Ford, Haynesville, and Fayetteville, and has said that they are worth at least US$10 billion.
In a webcast with retail shareholders in March, BHP chief financial officer Peter Beaven said that "there will be a lot of bids from a lot of different parts for this very large business, happily there's also a lot of interest."
In a results release in April, BHP said that "the exit process for our Onshore US assets is progressing to plan and the data rooms for all fields and mid-stream assets are now open. We expect to receive bids by June 2018 and proceed with negotiations to potentially announce one or several transactions in the first half of the 2019 financial year. In parallel, we continue to explore potential asset swap opportunities and exit via demerger or Initial Public Offering."

BP does have tight gas upstream operations in the U.S., including in the Eagle Ford.
In early March, Sky News reported that Shell and private equity firm Blackstone are working on a joint US$10-billion bid for BHP's shale assets in the U.S.
Shell aims to boost its shale oil production, the head of shale operations Greg Guidry told Reuters in March. The Anglo-Dutch oil major is active in the Permian, where it has 280,000 net acres.

Ultra Music Festival Announces Lineup for "RESISTANCE Island"
Apparently, RESISTANCE gets an entire island at Ultra this year.
Ultra Music Festival's organizers didn't mince words when they revealed that the presence of techno/house brand RESISTANCE would expand for the 2019 edition of the festival. Although the Arcadia Spider stage is no more, RESISTANCE Island's lineup shows that dance music's original styles continue to hold a big place in the Miami gathering's programming.
Spread across three stages, the RESISTANCE Island lineup announcement reveals techno mainstays like Adam Beyer, Richie Hawtin and Loco Dice in addition to a B2B2B between Dubfire, Nicole Moudaber and Paco Osuna. Rounding out the house end of the spectrum are Sasha & Digweed, who reunited for select B2B performances in 2016 following their 2010 split. Meeting in the middle are tech house acts like Camelphat and Carl Cox - the latter of whom will play a solo set in addition to a B2B with an as-yet-unannounced partner. More acts billed for RESISTANCE Island will be announced in the weeks leading up to the event.
RESISTANCE Island's lineup caters to a similar niche as that of Rapture Electronic Music Festival, which was originally meant to take place in the same location on two of the same three days. The festival's lawyers recently sent Ultra's a cease and desist letter regarding the event's controversial relocation. In light of recent announcements, it doesn't appear to have shaken their confidence that the 2019 edition will go as planned.
Ultra Music Festival is slated to take place on Virginia Key in Miami, Florida from March 29th-31st of 2019. For more information or to purchase tickets, visit the event website.
Ultra Music Festival is determined to put everyone's doubts to rest.
The Arcadia Spider may be dead, but Ultra's Resistance house and techno brand lives on!

Are you looking to visit less tourist cave in Ha Long Bay? If yes. So please go for Bo Nau cave. Bo Nau Grotto or Pelican Grotto lies far from 2-3 km southeast of Trong Mai Islet.
How Bo Nau cave is unique?
This vaulted grotto covers 200 m2. The floor of the grotto is wide and flat, but not profound and its wall features lots of stalactites and stalagmites. Bo Nau Grotto is among the beauty grottoes in Ha Long Bay for tourist visiting. Nowadays there are thousand of visitors to Halong bay day tour daily. There are many caves open for tourist. But mostly visitor entry the cave the same time. So sometime it's get traffic jam inside the cave.
In the entrance are 3 stones, looking for 3 fairies with their heads close to one another. Two guys seem to be playing chess, with the next serving as a referee. The name Bo Nau or Bo Nong is due to the fact that pelicans frequently take refuge here.
If Dau Go Grotto lies entirely inside the island, Bo Nau opens its mouth in the face of the staircase. Stalactites fall down from the roof of the grotto in various clusters. In the mean time stalagmites grow up in various shapes and layers. Is this the life out there's so noisy that the 3 fairies have to choose this tranquil place to play chess? Turning southward, Bo Nau Grotto enjoys cool breeze. Standing there, one can listen to the murmur of the sea.
Are there any cruise to Bo Nau Cave?

The Marshall Government has delivered on its 100-day commitment that all current State disability clients will receive their services from the non-government sector under the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS).
Yesterday, the State Government began discussions with clients, guardians, families, employees and unions about the future of Supported Community Accommodation (group homes).
The service is the last government-operated disability service to begin consultation on how to transition clients to the non-government sector.
Currently, clients who use this service live in supported houses that are state-run. The change means that, for the first time, people with disabilities, their families and guardians will be empowered to select the service providers who manage and work in the client's homes.
"I would like to stress there will be no immediate changes for residents or staff – it is services as usual for now," said Minister for Human Services Michelle Lensink.
"The change process will take time to shape and will occur gradually over the coming years.
"The State Government wants to ensure a smooth transition of services for clients.
"We will be commencing a comprehensive consultation period with clients, guardians and families, employees, unions and NGO providers to decide how the move will be planned and rolled out.
"Unlike the Labor Government's dismal track record with a complete lack of consultation in the past, the Liberal Government is committed to genuinely consult with everyone required to get direct feedback and advice on the needs of clients and employees.
Employees will be thoroughly consulted on the changes and how to achieve the best possible outcomes, with the aim of retaining skilled and experienced staff in the sector.
Stakeholders will also be invited to share their insights on how the State Government can effectively assist clients and families.


An Uber app is displayed next to a computer showing an image of a taxi sign.
Massachusetts appears to be the first state to divert some of the new taxes it has imposed on ride-hailing companies, including Uber and Lyft, to help fix the declining taxi and livery industry.
As part of a law passed earlier this month solidifying regulations of the ride-hailing app companies, the state now requires them to contribute 5 cents of every trip to a new fund that will help taxi businesses adopt "new technologies and advanced service, safety and operational capabilities and support workforce development," according to the law. The taxi-support fee is one piece of an overall 20 cents-per-trip tax. Besides the 5 cents taxi fee, 10 cents will go to Massachusetts cities and towns, and the remaining 5 cents will be routed to a state transportation fund. The taxi-support fee will last through the end of 2021.
The amount to be collected overall could amount to about $15 million, The Boston Globe estimates. This is based on the 2.5 million rides a month that Uber and Lyft report in Massachusetts, and an estimated 100,000 rides a month for Boston-based Fasten, which hasn't released its ridership numbers, plus a 25 percent annual growth rate for all three services.
"Could a similar subsidy have saved cinema organists, minicomputers, or the Pony Express?" writes the Globe's Scott Kirsner in a column last week.
There is not yet a plan for how the money will be spent, says Mark Sternman, a spokesman for MassDevelopment, the state agency that which will be in charge of the money, as Reuters reports. A small review board is scheduled to get together once a quarter to select ideas that are worthy of funding.
Some of these could include taxi fleet upgrades to hybrid or electric cars, and additional taxi stands in prominent city locations. "This will reduce wait time and guarantee immediate service," says Eran Ben-Joseph, head of the urban studies department at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, in an email to The Christian Science Monitor. He also recommends that the money go toward improving the state's ailing public transit system, biking and walking infrastructure, and the development of autonomous taxis.
Uber and Lyft haven't chimed in on the fee, though Fasten's chief operating officer Vlad Christoff has characterized the new tax as a subsidy of the competition, according to the Globe. Generally, the ride-hailing companies have praised the new regulations, which were signed into law on Aug. 5 by Gov. Charlie Baker. They proposed legislation was contentiously debated in the state, and ultimately came out less strict than the rules imposed on taxi drivers, according to MassLive.
Some taxi-business owners say the new rules for ride-hailing drivers, which require background checks, inspections, and insurance, aren't strict enough. And the new nickel fee, some say, won't be very helpful.
"They've been breaking the laws that are on the books, that we've been following for many years," Larry Meister, manager of the Boston area's Independent Taxi Operator's Association, told Reuters.
Ride-hailing companies, which allow people to easily and quickly order rides from independent contractors through phone apps, have attracted the ire of taxi companies globally, whose business they've siphoned and whose rules they've skirted because these tech companies have proven hard for regulators to define. In 2013, California was the first to create a new category – "transportation network companies" – and new rules for these services, which have resisted being classified as taxis. Today, about 20 other US states have imposed rules on the companies.
Some regions have banned the service completely – declaring it wholly illegal under state or federal law. Other regions – such as Germany and France – currently block lower-end rideshare services (like UberPOP), but allow higher-end options (like UberBLACK and UberLUX). The company's legality is sometimes even challenged on a micro level, in local municipalities – such as small communities like East Hampton, NY or Panama City Beach, Florida – which have declared the service illegal.
Why are Toyota and VW investing in the ride-hailing business?


My wife Kalyani and I , as well our son's family have benefited from Skyline Dental treatment and diagnostic procedures for over 10 years and are very pleased with the care, attention and the quality of care we are receiving. We have used Sklyline Dental for a variety of dental procedures--from implants to perio and endodontics to crown and regular and deep cleaning. Dr Mahdavi has built a solid team of professionals; we also like the fact that he himself is very accessible if he needs to examine the patient or to help determine the right option to address a dental issue. We also like their efficient way of dealing with scheduling, insurance, claims etc. All in all, great group of people who know their job and do it well!

DPRK expanding Chinese tourism to Kumgang
North Korea is expanding travel routes between China and its scenic resort in Mount Kumgang, a source familiar with the North said Monday, indicating Pyongyang's continued efforts to earn much-needed cash from Chinese tourists.
The new routes will include extra flights from Chinese cities to Mount Kumgang on North Korea's east coast, in addition to trains and expressways linking Beijing to the mountain resort via Pyongyang, the source said on condition of anonymity.
The move comes after North Korea recently ran a trial cruise from its northeastern port city of Rajin to Mount Kumgang.
The source also said more than 100 Chinese tourists traveled to the resort on a five-day itinerary at the end of last month.
By the end of this month, North Korea is planning to launch a tour program to Mount Kumgang from China's northeastern city of Harbin, although it is not clear whether the flight will land in Pyongyang or at a military airport on the mountain, the source said.
North Korea is reported to be considering converting a military airfield near the resort to a civilian airport to facilitate travel to the area.
"Starting with Harbin, (North Korea) plans to operate flights for Mount Kumgang from 16 cities across China, including Beijing, Shenyang and Guangzhou," the source said.
"They also plan to attract Chinese visitors by opening a railway and expressway linking Beijing, Pyongyang and Mount Kumgang," the source added, saying the first train tour on the route will likely be in April.
The move comes amid a dispute over the handling of South Korean assets at the resort. Seoul halted an inter-Korean joint tour program to the resort in 2008 following the shooting death of a South Korean tourist in the area.
In protest, North Korea recently expelled South Korean workers from the resort and vowed to legally dispose of all South Korean assets there. The tour program had served as a cash cow for the impoverished North.
South Korea has asked foreign countries not to invest or engage in tourism activities at the resort in a bid to protect its property rights there.

They ran on a campaign of organizing more activities dedicated to the academic and professional development of members, as opposed to trying to reach wider audiences through major events.
"We are very happy to have been able to persuade our colleagues that we are the best option for to lead the Club for the next year," said President-elect Isa Dukmenić on behalf of both.
The pair will assume the responsibilities of the President and Vice President on June 1, the last day of the academic year.

Amadi Jae: "Lonely Nights, Late Mornings" sneaks around the edges of your subconscious!
Born in Westchester, NY, the self-proclaimed "Retrolite" Amada Jae, fell in love with music and the arts at a young age when discovering the cello. In the mist of her growth as a cellist her family relocated numerous times moving from Norwalk, CT to Accra, Ghana (West Africa). This drastic move enhanced her love for music and other cultures. At the age of 8, Amadi would become the youngest to be invited to play with the national Orchestra of Ghana. Three years later, she returned to the United States and resided in Charlotte, NC. This would be the defining moment in the direction of the budding artist.
Amadi Jae
Dealing with her abrupt departure from Ghana, Amadi Jae turned to the world that she had created as a child for healing and escape. She began to write songs and discovered her ability to sing. Amadi was able to nurture her new talent and develop a unique sound that is purely her own. Amadi Jae has teamed up with VJ Music/ Sony Orchard to release her latest single "Lonely Nights, Late Mornings", produced by Nagib Hawk. This follows the release of her previous tracks "Dreams" and "Circles" also produced by Hawk.
If you're tired of all those divas who think singing is how loud, high and long they can extend a note, or bored with song after song that say the same thing and say nothing at all, and concerned that the prerequisite for female music stardom these days depends more on the ability to wear the least amount of clothing and twerk for the longest time, then welcome to the world of real music from a real woman.
Amadi Jae's track "Lonely Nights, Late Mornings", will steamroll those outdated musical misconceptions right out of the door. This is a track that sneaks around the edges of your subconscious rather than strikes you in the face. Despite the fact that there are no corny hooks or last-minute rapping features embedded to 'enhance' potential sales, you'll find yourself humming this tune for months.
How does Amadi Jae imbue her songs with such emotion, power and world-weariness? Well let's start by saying that her voice does not even belong in this millennium. She seems to come from another era. Her vocal styling is reminiscent of the great female voices from the past – those voices that they just don't make anymore.
The new single cover artwork
It gives her that sassy, funky feel which captures your attention from the first listen. But it doesn't end there. Several vocal elements combine to make "Lonely Nights, Late Mornings" an interesting and unique sounding song – Amadi's intonation which has a southern lilt, and her phrasing and timing which are seriously African-influenced.
"Lonely Nights, Late Mornings" is definitely a contender for being a hit – it has a strong melody, lyrics that make sense, and an emotional center that most people can relate to. This is a story about love, lost love, betrayal, surviving and not being able to really let go. When you listen to it, something will happen to you.
The voice, lyric, music production, and sound engineering on this track are outstanding. And Amadi does more than just carry the tune. She communicates feeling; she communicates thought. She uses her voice to convey meaning and depth. Amadi Jae's voice is a poignant, mature instrument!
Listen for Amadi Jae's Single, "Lonely Nights Late Mornings", ready to hit Top40 and other radio stations this month. Sponsored by www.yoursongontheradio.com.

The Long Island bred actor Jermel Howard has been on the move lately. He's had a few small roles over the years, starting out in the movie American Gangster, then on to being featured in the series Law & Order, Orange is the New Black and Luke Cage.
Howard is also intricately placed in the upcoming season of the Starz hit series Power and will play Mopreme Shakur, the older brother of the late rapper TuPac Shakur in his bio pic All Eyez on Me premiering in theaters today!
Jermel is not your typical actor. He's had a rough up bringing, his grandmother passed while he was just 9 years old and his mother was in and out of jail throughout his childhood. These trials did not stop Howard from reaching his potential and going after his dreams.
During Howard's teenage years he dabbled in the rap game a bit. His moniker was 'Sharpe', the name stemmed from him building a reputation in the streets of always keeping a razor or blade concealed in his mouth. Howard shared with Urban Girl Magazine his life's experiences and his road to stardom. It's not your typical road travel but it has led Jermel to the ultimate destination of working with one of his idols.
Howard's acting career began when he jumped head first into the craft. He began auditioning and everything snowballed from there. "I never studied, I never took a class, I just jumped in. I seen this quote once of a guy jumping off of a cliff…" he said with a chuckle, and continued …"it said entrepreneurs build their parachutes on the way down," Howard ended with a laugh.
According to Howard the most interesting parts of someone's life is the journey to the destination its never the actual ending point, but the things you didn't allow to stop you from getting there.
Jermel is an older brother of 4 and took on the role of playing Mopreme Shakur as an easy task.

I have a hard time portioning out my meals when I am trying to watch my weight . I never know how much is too much or too little, because I have to guesstimate That may be fine when you're eyeballing ingredients, but not with portion size. With the eat smart precision scale this nuisance has become obsolete.
This scale is perfect for my portion control needs. I just put a handful or cup of fruit or veggies on it and subtract maybe a lb for the weight of the holder as needed. I can get exactly the right amount of food I need without going over or under.
What's also wonderful about this scale is that it weighs my packages! I am constantly sending out small to medium things that I sell and this has been a great savior for me. I no longer have to go to the post office and weigh things. I can just have my packages picked up after I print out the labels myself. I know exactly how much my packages will cost to send, whereas before I just had to guess and I would sometimes be off on my estimate and waste a dollar or even more!
The scale has a sleek design and it comes in different flattering colors for all decor. I received the reddish maroon one, which was a total surprise. I love it. It fits perfect with my kitchen scheme. I also like the crystal clear digital LCD screen and the different units of measurement, including oz's, lb's, kg's and grams. It will take up to exactly 11 lb's/ 5kg's, which is plenty enough for the majority of packages I ship and obviously food I eat. It also comes with a tare selection.
What do I love most about this scale?
It's roomy for a small scale! It is about 5 inches across.
It takes 2 AAA batteries and that is awesome, considering that the last mini scale I used took one of those hard to get small round batteries. It also ran out of juice VERY quickly. Changing these types of batteries is so easy. I always have some on hand, but I never have the other type when I need them. I think those are more expensive too, if i'm not mistaken.
It is made very sturdy and durable from what I can see and feel, but I wouldn't go putting anything heavier than 11 lbs on it.
I'm very pleased with this scale and I don't see it pooping out on me any time soon!
You can purchase your own for the very decent price of $25 on Amazon.
Isn't it surprising when you actually weigh something out how much smaller it is than what you think It really makes you remember how much more you eat before you started weighing your food. Also like that you can weight anything small with it.
This is a great way to keep track of food intake!

Dubai: Every now and then, its easy to forget how busy astronauts are in space, watching over Planet Earth.
Nasa astronaut Shane Kimbrough is currently part of the Expedition 49/50 mission, along with five other crew members from the US and Russia, who recently flew over the UAE during their journey in space.
Hello Dubai! The Palm Islands look amazing from @ISS.
A post shared by Shane Kimbrough (@astro_kimbrough) on Feb 26, 2017 at 6:21am PST
Kimbrough's latest mission departed in October 2016 and according to Nasa, has been scheduled to conclude in March, 2017.
The retired United States Army officer captured the image from the International Space Station (ISS), accompanied with the caption: "Hello Dubai! The Palm Islands look amazing from @ISS."
This is not the first photo of the UAE that has been taken from space.
In April 2016, European Space Agency astronaut Tim Peake took photos of Dubai from a space station on Sunday when a spacecraft came into view.
Peake, a former British Army Air Corps officer, took another shot that was then photobombed by SpaceX's Dragon capsule.

Q: Vue seems to mess up dragend event when HTML elements changed as result of drag Iam working on app which is using vuedraggable library (https://github.com/SortableJS/vue.draggable.next). My arrays between which elements can be dragged are computed property sorted from one big reactive array of all "tasks".
When you drag some element, draggable moves it between those "temporary" arrays. That is detected and as a result tasks property "assignee" is edited. This results in computed property being recalculated and UI is refreshed. This works well. Issue is that probably as result of this UI layouting after drag. When i hook @dragend event on draggable element it is fired on element in place of on where dragging started messing many things up.
Timeline:
-------     -------
| el1 |     | el3 |
-------     -------
-------
| el2 |
-------

*

*I start dragging el1 under el3

*Drag ends, both arrays from which columns are generated are recreated (because they are computed property).

*@dragend is fired but it fires on el2 instead of actually dragged el1

Same happens with other events like mouseenter. Unfortunatelly as i have mouseenter hooked to custom tooltip it makes this tooltip show with wrong data (el2 data instead of el1 where mouse actually is). This state remains until mouse is moved (even if 1px only). At that point mouseenter is fired again on el1 and correct tooltip is opened.
Unfortunatelly i dont know where i could create repro which could use draggable lib :-(
There is one "hack" which helps hiding this behaiour. In @dragend set flag which ignores single @mouseenter on el2. In that case nothing is shown after drag ends and only when mouse is moved proper tooltip is opened.

The forces of the Rebel Alliance are scattered throughout the galaxy, often cut off from other supporters of the Rebel cause. Seclusion is necessary—if the Empire could easily locate the Rebel forces, they would be easily exterminated. However, this means that the Rebel Alliance needs daring men and women to supply its freedom fighters with weapons, medicine, and the equipment they need to keep fighting the Empire. These smugglers constantly put their life at risk to serve the Rebellion, and with the Alliance Smuggler Ally Pack, you can bring their bold skills to your games of Imperial Assault!
After the fashion of other Ally Packs and Villain Packs, the Alliance Smuggler Ally Pack includes one sculpted Alliance Smuggler figure, new missions for the campaign and skirmish games, and an assortment of new Mission cards, Command cards, Deployment cards, and Skirmish cards. Unlike other figure pack expansions, however, the Alliance Smuggler Ally Pack has no corresponding larger expansion, meaning that the Alliance Smuggler enters the game for the first time in this expansion.
Today, we'll move to the Outer Rim of the galaxy and explore the daredevil life of an Alliance Smuggler in the Star Wars universe!
For just two points, you can hire the services of an Alliance Smuggler for a campaign or a skirmish. The Alliance Smuggler works alone as the only figure in his squad, and although his health is low, he can strike from range and spend his surges to gain accuracy, pierce armor, or Stun his targets. Your opponent may have a more difficult time injuring the Alliance Smuggler than he expects, however. Smugglers are known for being quick on their feet, and the Slippery ability allows you to reduce the accuracy of any attack made against the Alliance Smuggler. Then, after an attack targeting the Alliance Smuggler resolves, he gains two movement points, which he can use to dodge away from future attacks.
The Alliance Smuggler can also spend an action to use the Smuggler's Instincts ability, which allows him to perform an interact action, then move up to two spaces. The interact action can be used for a variety of effects, depending on the mission, but its most common uses are to open a crate or a door. Although allies cannot interact with crates during a campaign, the Alliance Smuggler may use his Smuggler's Instincts to dart around the map, opening doors before running back into cover and taking shots from the shadows.
You may also choose to invest two more points to hire an elite Alliance Smuggler for your team. For two additional points, you gain significant benefits. The elite Alliance Smuggler features improved health, speed, and surge abilities. Not only can this version of the Alliance Smuggler spend a surge to pierce more armor or gain more accuracy, he can spend a surge to Focus, granting him an additional die for his next attack. And if all that weren't enough, the elite Alliance Smuggler has the Improved Smuggler's Instincts ability, which allows him to perform an interact and then move up to three spaces.
In your Imperial Assault campaigns, the Alliance Smuggler can become a valuable asset. This Ally Pack introduces a new campaign side mission—Precious Cargo—that challenges you to help a shot-down Rebel smuggler recover his vital supplies and escape before the Imperial threat becomes overwhelming. If the Rebel heroes can successfully retrieve the cargo and make it to the extraction point, they gain the Alliance Smuggler as an ally that can be included in your later missions.
During a mission, the Alliance Smuggler can't stand up to concentrated firepower. However, you don't need him to rush into a firefight to be useful. With the Slippery and Smuggler's Instincts abilities, the Alliance Smuggler is perfectly suited to opening doors and dodging out of the way, staying at long range and taking potshots at Imperial forces. Even if the Imperial player does decide to focus his attacks on the Alliance Smuggler and defeat him, every attack against the Alliance Smuggler is an attack not directed at your heroes!
The Alliance Smugglers can also be a potent force as part of your skirmish strike teams. You may choose to use Alliance Smugglers as background skirmishers. By staying out of range of your opponent's melee combatants, the Alliance Smugglers can harry your opponent's strike team, picking away at them from range. The high speed and Slippery ability of the elite Alliance Smuggler also make this unit excellent for completing objectives, especially objectives that involve transporting tokens.
Alternatively, you can assign your own mission to the Alliance Smugglers with a new skirmish upgrade card, Smuggler's Run . Smuggler's Run is an attachment that can be given to any Smuggler unit. As an action, you may deplete Smuggler's Run while the attached figure is in your opponent's deployment zone to immediately gain five victory points. In other words, Smuggler's Run plays into the Rebel Alliance's penchant for completing objectives to gain victory points, rather than crushing your opponent's strike team. As your other figures work to complete the main objectives, you can send a single Alliance Smuggler to slip past your foes and enter the enemy deployment zone in exchange for the victory points to push you closer to victory.
You may also supplement your skirmish team with the new Command cards included in the Alliance Smuggler Ally Pack. Any Rebel figure can take advantage of the Heart of Freedom Command card, which allows a figure to discard a Harmful condition, recover two damage, and gain two movement points—all without using an action! Alternatively, you may play Self-Defense when a hostile figure enters a space adjacent to you, causing that figure to suffer a damage.
The final Command card included in this figure pack completely changes the way you'll go about your missions. You may play Smuggler's Tricks on one of your Smuggler figures to choose a tile or token the figure is on or adjacent to. Until the start of the next round, your opponent counts as having one fewer figure on or adjacent to that tile or token! For many missions, this Command card can completely tip an objective in your favor, but it can be used during any mission to seize control of a terminal, giving you more Command cards and spurring you closer to victory.

Final Large-Scale ESO Beta Test On Friday!
March 11, 2014 by Shane Scarbrough 2 Comments
We must be getting close to the official launch date! Earlier today, ZeniMax Online Studios announced the final large-scale ESO beta test before the game's Early Access (gamers who pre-order The Elder Scrolls Online will be granted early access to the game a few days before the April 4, 2014 release date). The final ESO beta starts on Friday, March 14 at 12:00 PM EDT, and ends on Sunday, March 16 at 11:59 PM EDT.
Final ESO Beta…With Perks!
As much as I've enjoyed being a part of The Elder Scrolls Online beta tests, I have to admit that I'm getting tired and want to start my adventure for real. If you feel the same way, take heart for the end is in sight.
Besides being the final large-scale ESO beta, this week's test is special in other ways. Here are the highlights:
Gamers can play as an Imperial and sample the perks of the Imperial Edition (to learn more about these benefits, take a look at our earlier article Elder Scrolls Online Imperial Edition – Is It Worth It?)
This beta promises combat improvements, a re-worked introductory experience, and more.
Players can continue using their character from the prior beta test on either the NA or EU megaserver.
Just like last time, players are not required to follow the Non-Disclosure Agreement and are encouraged to share screenshots, videos, and opinions about the game freely without fear of ZeniMax attorneys or Draugr Deathlords.
There is no need to re-install the game client to play this newest version of ESO. Players just need to patch the game and they're good to go.
Final Thoughts on the Final ESO Beta
Like I mentioned earlier, I can't wait to start my ESO adventure for real. With that said, I have to admit that I'm intrigued to play this latest version of the game, if only to see the combat improvements, etc. I won't be playing as an Imperial, however. I pre-ordered the Imperial Edition, and I don't want to sample the benefits until Early Access.
So how about it? Are you growing impatient for the start of ESO and will you be participating in this final ESO beta? Are there any elements to the test that you're looking forward to? Let us know in the Speak Your Mind section below.

Topher says
With the more recent trend to limit the number of abilities on a smaller hotbar, games have become limiting. I love ES and have pre-ordered the Imperial Edition, but I wish combat wasn't soooo boring. Every MMORPG coming out these days is all gear and formula combat. I wish someone would build one with an involved combat system like DAoC. So many moves and abilities made combat more engaging and fun to watch. A thrust fighter and a staff spec friar were in my opinion the most visually engaging and enjoyable MMORPG toons in the history of the genre. Instead once agin we have hit, medium hit, big hit, block, and a couple attacks on the hot bar. No long chains, no variety.
Thanks for your comment, Topher. ESO combat has taken a hit (no pun intended) by several reviewers, and I know it's a sore spot with many gamers. Your points are excellent. Let's keep our fingers crossed and see what improvements have been made for this weekend's beta.
