Pretium Builds on Growth with New Hires
New York – April 8, 2020 – Pretium, a leading investment firm with $14 billion of managed assets, today announced that Jennifer Strickland has joined the firm as Co-Head of Business Development. Ms. Strickland joins Pretium with two decades of business development experience, most recently with PIMCO where she served as Executive Vice President since 2012.
Ms. Strickland's hire follows an active 2019 for Pretium that included multiple strategic transactions that expanded Pretium's investment offerings and capabilities.
Pretium, the largest private manager and operator of single-family rental homes, completed a banner transaction in October 2019 for its flagship single-family-rental fund and has been a consistent thought leader in the space. That same month, Pretium broadened its residential credit franchise by acquiring a leading mortgage originator and mortgage servicer. Last month, Pretium announced it had acquired Latigo, a distressed credit platform.
Ms. Strickland is joined by several recent additions to Pretium's growing business development team: Giovanna Loiotile (previously from Highbridge and Davidson Kempner), Loc Vukhac (previously from Investec and BlackRock), and London-based Eugenie Dadachpour (previously from Heitman). In addition, Pretium recently announced it had hired Amar Kuchinad (previously from Trumid and Goldman Sachs) and Ian McAllister (previously from Electronifie and Credit Suisse) to partner with the firm's expanding businesses and enhance their data and technology capabilities.
Donald Mullen, CEO and Founder of Pretium, said "We are excited to welcome Jennifer and our newest colleagues to Pretium and look forward to leveraging their collective experience and strong track record of successfully partnering with investors."
Ms. Strickland said, "I am thrilled to join Pretium's talented team and further the firm's mission of developing unique solutions for our global clients."
Prior to joining PIMCO, Ms. Strickland was Managing Director, Investors Relations at BlueMountain Capital Management and previously served as Director of Investors Relations at HBK Capital Management.

Over 100,000 UN Employee Records Accessed by Researchers
Security researchers revealed today that it took them just hours to access over 100,000 personal records and credentials belonging to United Nations employees.
A team from Sakura Samurai had decided to look for bugs to report to the UN under its vulnerability disclosure program, first probing multiple endpoints that were in scope.
It initially found an exposed subdomain for UN body the International Labour Organization (ILO), according to Sakura Samurai founder John Jackson. This gave them access to Git credentials which they used to takeover a legacy MySQL database and a survey management platform. Exfiltration of these credentials was done with the git-dumper tool.
Although these assets contained "hardly anything of use," the researchers then discovered an exposed subdomain related to the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), which was a much bigger privacy risk. The domain was also leaking Git credentials.
"Ultimately, once we discovered the GitHub credentials, we were able to download a lot of private password-protected GitHub projects and within the projects we found multiple sets of database and application credentials for the UNEP production environment," Jackson explained.
"In total, we found seven additional credential pairs which could have resulted in unauthorized access of multiple databases. We decided to stop and report this vulnerability once we were able to access PII that was exposed via database backups that were in the private projects."
In total, the team discovered over 100,000 employee records including names, ID numbers, gender, pay grade, records of travel details, work sub-areas and departments, evaluation reports and funding source records.
The UN is a frequent target for nation state attackers and its cybersecurity has often been found wanting in the past.
A year ago it emerged that hundreds of gigabytes of internal data, potentially including highly sensitive information on human rights activists, had been stolen in 2019 by attackers.
Controversially, the organization itself appeared to use its diplomatic immunity to keep the incident a secret.
Fortunately, this time around the UN is believed to have quickly patched the vulnerabilities in question and secure the exposed data.

Camp Creek is an unincorporated community in southern Greene County, Tennessee. Camp Creek is nestled at the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains sub-range the Bald Mountains.

History
Camp Creek was recorded in land records as early as 1788.  "For 10 pounds per 100 acres – to Michael Box 150 acres in Greene County on south side of Nolichucky River on Camp Creek, both sides of Camp Creek, adjoining Thomas Davis, Lewis Morgan, David Reynolds. Samuel Johnston at Fairfield, 11 Jul 1788. From:

2011 tornado
Camp Creek, along with neighboring Horse Creek, was hit by two EF3 tornadoes during the nighttime hours of April 27, 2011. A total of eight people were killed altogether by the tornadoes, which either damaged or destroyed hundreds of structures. The first tornado, which more closely affected Camp Creek, was spawned from the same long-tracked supercell that also produced an EF5 tornado near Philadelphia, Mississippi, an EF4 that affected Cordova and Blountsville, Alabama, an EF5 that moved through Rainsville, Alabama, and an EF4 that hit Ringgold, Georgia and Apison, Tennessee.

A Memorial honoring the victims was dedicated on April 28, 2012, one year after the tornado.

Education
Camp Creek is home to Camp Creek Elementary School which serves grades K-8.

For High School students go to South Greene High School in nearby South Greene.

Notice From Dr Holliday-Health Matters No.2
March 25, 2020 Written by tireetrust
Dr Holliday
Number C.2
Given the situation we find ourselves in, a few people have asked me recently about the old Fever Hospital near the shore in Heanish. This was built by the Mull District Committee of Argyll County Council in 1905 so that islanders with diseases such as scarlet fever or smallpox could be removed from their crowded houses and looked after professionally. It was erected by the same company that put up the Reading Room in Scarinish, Spiers and Company from Glasgow. A two-bedded ward lay at each end of the building with a kitchen, nurse's room and bathroom in the centre. Sixty cubic metres of space were allowed per patient. Nurses were brought over from the mainland on demand.
The first case was a mother and two children with diphtheria, and an epidemic was averted due to the quick action of Dr Roger MacNeill, the County Medical Officer. Thereafter it was rarely used. It was let out as a house in the 1920s, although the first tenants were told that they would have to move out in a hurry if there was another epidemic!

Amid obesity epidemic, many American kids are still ditching water
A new research letter points to another reason for childhood obesity.
Photo credit: Mark peterson / Corbis via Getty Images
A research letter, published in JAMA Pediatrics, notes that one out of every five children (ages 2–19) do not drink water on any given day.
Children that replace water with sugar-sweetened beverages drink twice as many calories.
Researchers note that this is a factor in childhood obesity, type 2 diabetes, fatty liver disease, and other avoidable ailments.

An old friend of mine never drank water — ever — a fact I didn't notice until she pointed it out one day. We often DJ'd together, meaning that we'd be in the club until 4 am. Sure, there was alcohol, but generally she didn't drink much of that either. She simply didn't drink.
Except coffee. That was the only liquid she put into her body during the course of the day. "It's made of water," she'd laugh. She wasn't incorrect. But to not drink water, at all? Even more surprisingly, one of her clients was Smartwater. She had boxes of product in her apartment. Until this week, I believed her to be an outlier.
A new research letter, published in JAMA Pediatrics on April 20, discovered that one out of every five adolescents and teenagers do not drink water on any given day. The letter, covering 2011–16, was constructed using data from the National Health and Examination Survey. Over 8,000 youth, aged two to 19, were involved in the survey.
Not drinking water is bad enough, but a bigger problem is what they replaced it with: sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs). While my friend had to contend with caffeine withdrawal, these children are dealing with something far more serious: obesity. Children who don't drink water consume twice as many calories as those that do.
The Importance Of Drinking Water For Children
The average calories consumed through beverages by all the participants was 132 per day. For those that reported drinking water as well, the number was 112 calories; for those replacing water with juices, caloric content jumps to 210. The survey relied on 24-hour recall by the participants; younger children were assisted by their parents.
Lead author of the study, Asher Rosinger, from the Department of Biobehavioral Health at Penn State, says that this, in part, is driving the obesity epidemic among adolescents and teens.
"What you have to remember is that an extra 3,500 calories equals one pound of weight gain. So if you're not compensating for those extra calories, then over a month, you can potentially gain a pound."
It's not only weight gain. Two-year-olds are coming to the pediatrician with fatty liver disease; teens with type 2 diabetes. Other noted problems from drinking too many SSBs include dental issues and high cholesterol. Given that the foods we consume during youth tend to become "comfort foods" as we age, this is a rough beginning to what will likely be an unhealthy life.

Water remains the healthiest beverage imaginable. Among its benefits:
Maintenance and balance of body fluids
Controls calorie intake
Energizes muscles
Hydrates and protects skin
Helps transport waste products out of cells
Maintains normal bowel function
The study skewed along racial lines as well. Non-water-drinking white children consumed the most calories on average (237), with black youth coming in second (218) and Latino children last (176) — which, for health reasons, is really first. That said, the economics of access to clean drinking water is a concern that the authors entertain.
Systemic problems, such as water problems (à la Flint) need to be addressed. As Rosinger notes, contamination "is a growing problem in the U.S., so we need to keep that in mind as important context, especially when it comes to parents who may be giving their kids soda or juice because they distrust the water. Therefore, it's critical to ensure that everyone has access to safe, clean water."
Of course, experts warn against replacing water with sweetened drinks, but that's just common sense. Given that water is an elemental foundation of biological life, the lion's share of the blame falls on parents. We all need liquid to survive. Offer children water. Cut out the sweets. Some problems are complex while others simply are not.

Sanders Introduces "Freedom To Read Protection Act"
Washington, DC- Congressman Bernie Sanders (I-VT), members of the American Library Association and Representatives from the American Booksellers Foundation for Free Expression announced at a press conference today the introduction of Sanders' "Freedom to Read Protection Act." The legislation would exempt libraries and booksellers from provisions of the USA Patriot Act that allow the federal government to access library or bookstore records without having to get a traditional search warrant. Sanders and other congressional sponsors of the bill believe that the legislation is needed to protect Americans' constitutionally guaranteed right to read and access information without governmental intrusion or monitoring.
Specifically, Sanders' legislation would exempt libraries and bookstores from Section 215 of the Patriot Act. Under Section 215 of the Patriot Act, the person whose records are being searched by the FBI can be anyone. The FBI doesn't even have to say that it believes the person they are investigating is involved in criminal activity or that the person is connected to a foreign power.
Even more frightening, the FBI can investigate American citizens based in part on an American's exercise of his or her First Amendment Rights, such as writing a letter to the editor of a newspaper or reading books the government may not approve of.
The Freedom to Read Protection Act is being introduced by 24 members of Congress including Republican Ron Paul of Texas, and Congressman John Conyers, the Ranking Member of the House Judiciary Committee. Sixty-two cities and towns from across America have passed resolutions on this issue.

Hall Network
Student Internship
2017 Interns
Meet the Inaugural 2017 Hall Network Interns
Sera Gearhart is currently a second-year undergraduate student, studying Public Health Policy, French, and Mathematics at the University of Redlands. During the 2016-17 academic year she has been a research assistant for Professor Gregory Thorson, examining the link between gaps in educational attainment, and income inequality as observed across the globe. During her 2016 May Term studies, Gearhart travelled to Swaziland, a small country in Southern Africa, to participate in community service projects with care points that serve children impacted by the HIV/AIDS epidemic. On campus, Gearhart is a proud committee member of PEERS, a student government group based on improving campus-wide mental and physical health, and is a member of the Proudian Interdisciplinary Honors Program. In the fall of 2017, Gearhart plans to study health policy abroad in Geneva, Switzerland.
Gearhart grew up in Eugene, Oregon where she delighted in the state's beautiful mountains, valleys, and coast; and learned the value of maintaining good health through a love of exercise. She has been an avid rock climber—competing on the national level—for over 10 years. After completing her undergraduate degree Gearhart plans to pursue a graduate degree in Public Health Policy, and hopes to conduct epidemiological research on an international scale.
Gearhart has deferred her internship until 2018 and plans to intern internationally with focus on public health policy.
Veronica Knutson is currently a junior at the University of Redlands, double majoring in Public Policy and Creative Writing. Her areas of interest are healthcare, women's rights, and the environment. She is originally from Saint Paul, Minnesota, and has fallen in love with the California sunshine! Her involvements on campus include being a trip leader for Outdoor Programs, a member of Young Progressives Demanding Action, a member of Pi Sigma Alpha (the honors Political Science fraternity), and the Vice President of Golden Z (a women's rights organization). Reproductive rights are of particular importance to Veronica and she has done extensive research on abortion access in the U.S. Her dream jobs include working for Planned Parenthood, the United Nations, or the Guttmacher Institute, however she is very open to any great opportunity. Knutson studied abroad in Salzburg during the Fall 2016 semester with 20 other Bulldogs. She will also be studying abroad a second time the Fall 2017; and will be learning about public health in South Africa, Vietnam, and Argentina. In her spare time Knutson enjoys reading New Yorker magazine, visiting art museums (The Broad in LA is a favorite), exploring Joshua Tree, and writing in all forms. She has thoroughly enjoyed her time at Redlands thus far and is incredibly thankful for the many opportunities she has received. The small school atmosphere along with numerous wonderful professors have allowed her to feel thoroughly challenged and supported in my academic endeavors. Knutson has grown tremendously as both a student and a citizen, and is very excited to take her knowledge and apply it in Washington D.C! She has never been before and is thrilled to spend the summer exploring the many museums and libraries, eating cupcakes on the daily, and running around in a sweaty suit adding to the dynamic energy that keeps the capital going. Knutson is also excited to run into high-profile politicians and shake their hands too enthusiastically. Interning in D.C. this summer thanks to the Hall Network Award will allow her to develop as a professional and learn the skills necessary to be successful in the political world. Knutson is endlessly thankful and proud to be a Hall Network Intern!
Knutson will be interning with Congressman Pete Aguilar, who represents the 31st district of California (San Bernardino County). She will be spending the summer working to help Pete's office run as smoothly and efficiently as possible.
Ben Purper is a senior at the University of Redlands majoring in International Relations with minors in Latin American Studies and Instrumental Performance. Purper is from the Redlands area, and went to high school in Redlands before starting at the University of Redlands in 2013. His academic interests are focused on human rights and constructivist international relations theory, but his primary interest is journalism. Purper plans to use this opportunity from the Hall Network for Innovation in Public Policy to intern with a local newspaper or radio station so he can improve his reporting skills and gain first-hand experience in a newsroom. His ideal career would be a foreign correspondent or editor for a news source's international desk, especially in Los Angeles or San Francisco. Purper also studied abroad in Buenos Aires, Argentina during his junior year, and has been looking forward to traveling in South America again ever since. The Hall Network internship is the first step in his post-graduation path towards a career in journalism and international affairs.
Ben's internship will be at KVCR-FM, a National Public Radio station that operates out of San Bernardino Valley College. He'll be working with David Fleming and Rick Dulock, who together have over 40 years of experience at KVCR and other NPR member stations. His responsibilities as an intern will be using digital audio software to edit interviews as well as interview journalists about local news stories, which will go on the air. At KVCR he'll be able to work in both News and the Arts & Entertainment programs.
Sophie Vogel grew up in Wyoming, attending public school.

Oscar Isaac Joins Dune Reboot Cast | Nerd Much?
Add another big name to the Dune reboot cast. Reports are that Oscar Isaac is in early negotiations to join the upcoming film in the role of Duke Leto Atreides. Duke Leto is the father of the film's lead, Paul Atreides.
The Dune reboot cast has been progressing steadily over the last month or so. The leading role of Paul Atreides was given to Timothée Chalamet last year. And Rebecca Ferguson earned the role of Lady Jessica, mother to Paul and wife to Duke Leto last year as well.
January saw the Dune reboot cast bolster even further. Dave Bautista was confirmed for the role of Beast – aka Glossu Rabban Harkonnen – at the beginning of the month. And Stellen Skarsgard was confirmed for the role of Beast's father, Baron Vladimir Harkonnen, not long after.
Following the primary figures of the Harkonnen family being set, Charlotte Rampling was then added to the Dune reboot cast in the role of Reverend Mother Mohiam.
Oscar Isaac's inclusion to the Dune reboot cast brings even more credibility to the film's ranks. The actor has been all over the place over the last few years as one of Hollywood's brightest stars. He, of course, plays Poe Dameron in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Star Wars: The Last Jedi, and the upcoming Star Wars Episode 9. And he lends his voice to the Star Wars universe as well in the new animated series, Star Wars: Resistance.
But Isaac has plenty of high caliber work outside of the Star Wars universe too. He'll voice Gomez Addams in the upcoming The Addams Family animated film. He had a voice cameo within Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse too. The star also had key roles in X-Men: Apocalypse (as Apocalypse) and Annihilation too.
All the pieces seem to be falling into place Denis Villeneuve's Dune. We'll have to wait and see whether any more notable additions join the ranks in the coming weeks.


Shop, Learn, Connect— that's our market's slogan, and this summer we emphasized the second word "learn" with 15 teaching demonstrations held during market hours. Intended to match the spirit of the market (local, seasonal, and affordable), the demonstrations helped customers learn how to preserve foods to enjoy year-round, how to prepare a variety of dishes from local produce, and how to stretch their food dollar. We partnered with Montpelier-area chefs, our market vendors, and food educators to lead these almost-weekly demonstrations.
New England Culinary Institute (NECI) Executive Chef Tom Bivins led six of the demonstrations, giving NECI students a taste of how to teach outside the classroom, and giving market customers some delicious samples to try. At the zucchini bonanza demo, Tom proved that it's possible to make a creamy vegan sauce without cream. (Just what was his secret cream stand-in? Cashews.) His tall chef's toque (hat) drew kids to the demo tent, and some of them came back many times to taste the different foods that were prepared.
Jane Tucker of Highland Gardens showed how to can dill pickles and bread and butter pickles. Lisa Mase of Harmonized Cookery showed how to make chutneys and relishes. We scheduled our ice cream demo on our Youth Market Day, when kids get a chance to vend their own food products and crafts. Mark Simakaski of Artesano mead did the demo, and because adults love ice cream, too, he sold ice cream at the market that included a basil ice cream—a big hit.
The teaching demonstrations also offered shoppers opportunities to ask questions and to learn new cooking techniques. Peggy Thompson, who led most of the canning demos, notes that most people came to learn about general canning techniques. During her strawberry jam demo, one man asked her why his jams never set, even though he had carefully measured the correct amounts of sugar, fruit, and pectin. Thompson showed him the jam-making process from start—pulling the caps off the strawberries—to finish—sealing the jam in a water bath. After watching her, the man was able to figure out what he did wrong. Peggy wished him luck and sent him home with new instructions, free pectin samples, and discount coupons for buying canning supplies.
Learning doesn't end just because the weather turns cold. Demonstrations will continue at our winter market, which is held inside from December through April. Last year, the winter market offered demonstrations on meats, maple syrup, and fermented foods. This year we'd like to focus on specific cooking techniques. We hope to schedule demonstrations on how to carve your holiday turkey and use every part of the bird, as well as how to use all parts of a meat animal (think: organ meats). Demos don't have to involve lots of time or money. Hunger Mountain Coop in Montpelier paid the food costs for the Vermont Foodbank demos, as they fit the store's mission.
Carolyn Grodinsky is the manager of the Capital City Farmers' Market and an enthusiastic shopper there. Using the knowledge she's gained from the canning workshops, she canned all sorts of vegetables this past summer.

Biografia
Nel 344 a.C. Filippo II aveva ereditato dal padre un litigio con gli Illiri e non trovò alcuna possibilità di conciliare il suo disaccordo. Filippo quindi invase lo Stato dei Taulanti con un grande esercito, devastò le campagne, catturò molte città e paesi e tornò in Macedonia carico di bottino. Dopo la decimazione dei Grabei da parte di Filippo, Pleurato, in un tentativo fallito, cercò di contrastare i progressi di Filippo in Illiria e riuscì a ferire centocinquanta uomini del suo corpo d'elite e Ippostrato figlio di Aminta III nel loro inseguimento. Lo stesso Filippo venne ferito e perse parte del suo gruppo di amici, accontentandosi del possesso della provincia Illiria orientale di Dassarezia. Le pretese di Filippo sullo Stato dei Taulantii cessarono dopo la pace stipulata con Pleurato.

Dopo questo conflitto lo Stato dei Taulantii di Pleurato era limitato alle sole terre lungo l'Adriatico. Tuttavia, questo Stato continuò una politica anti macedone fino a 335 a.C., quando Glaucia e Cleito si ribellarono contro Alessandro Magno.

Mas, afinal, o que Carlos e os Bolsonaro pretendem mesmo com os ataques a Mourão?
Alan Emtage invented the world's first search engine, but he didn't earn a single cent from his groundbreaking invention. "I wrote a piece of code that gave birth to a multibillion-dollar industry," he tells The Huffington Post in an exclusive video interview. "I didn't make any money off of it, but I wouldn't change anything."
The self-proclaimed geek majored in computer science at McGill University in Montreal, Canada, and was working as a systems administrator for the School of Computer Science, where he was responsible for finding software for students and faculty. At the time, there was no other way to locate the software beyond a manual search through the directory archives, a "tedious process" that he decided to automate.
"We built this very simple program that allowed people to do the search themselves," the native of Barbados says. The program needed a name, so Emtage called it "Archie," which is "archive" without the V. Within months, half the internet traffic to Canada was going to the innovator's machine.
"At the time, nobody was making money off of the Internet, and we didn't patent any of the original ideas behind Archie," he explains. "So the patents would have been where I would have made the money." Archie used the same techniques that every current search engine uses, so, Emtage adds, "in that way, Archie was the great great grandfather of Google and all of those other search engines."
Today, the Search industry earns $780 billion dollars annually. Emtage sees none of that money, but he is completely at ease with it. "I don't feel like a father of anything," he states. "It's not how I think of myself really ... Every now and again, I interact with somebody who's a real idiot, and I think to myself, 'Yeah, but you know what? I invented the search engine.'"

Scores of protesters gathered outside the Tornillo border crossing about 35 miles southeast of El Paso, Texas over the weekend to protest the mass incarceration of immigrant children there in a barren tent camp in the desert on the Mexican border. The demonstrators demanded the immediate release of the children as well as that of their parents.
The protest came amid reports that over 1,600 children have been relocated to the camp as part of a brutal immigration policy involving what amounts to midnight raids on shelters and foster care homes throughout the country.
Children are literally being dragged from their beds in the middle of the night without warning in order to prevent them from escaping, according to a report Sunday by the New York Times. They are then loaded onto buses and transported hundreds if not thousands of miles from as far away as New York and Kansas to be imprisoned in the Tornillo detention camp.
The Times reported that caregivers at the shelters and homes from which the children are removed have protested the action and have been left in tears by the government's action. Children already traumatized by their detention and separation from their parents are once again subjected to the cruelty of the US government's police-state regime against immigrants and refugees.
The Tornillo detention camp, or "Tent City" was originally opened in June to house 400 boys after the Trump administration's implementation of its "zero tolerance" policy, which effectively meant that all undocumented immigrants, including those claiming refugee status, were to be imprisoned, and all those deemed to have violated immigration law criminally prosecuted. While held in custody, parents were separated from their children.
While the administration has formally ended the policy of separation, it acknowledges that nearly 500 children are still separated from their parents and in custody, including 22 who are under the age of five. The parents of at least 322 of these children have already been deported. Moreover, the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) notified Congress earlier this month that it cannot locate about 1,500 children released into custody by immigration authorities and for whom it is responsible to ensure care.
The number of detained immigrant minors has increased fivefold since 2017, with more than 13,000 now in custody. The average period of time that these children spend in detention centers has nearly doubled from 34 days to 59 days, according to DHHS.
While the government initially said it would close down the Tornillo camp in July, it subsequently pushed the closing date to September and has now revealed that the facility is being vastly expanded and will remain open at least until the end of this year.
The children imprisoned at the camp are classified as "unaccompanied minors", though it is unclear whether some of those housed there were separated from their parents either in crossing the border or by the Border Patrol itself.
Children sent to the Tornillo federal detention camp are taken from homes and shelters elsewhere to live in tents where they "sleep lined up in bunks" and are denied the right to education that is mandated in facilities under the jurisdiction of individual states' child welfare laws. Their access to attorneys handling their immigration cases is also sharply curtailed.
Hundreds of children are being been dragged to the desert detention camp in Texas because of the overflow in other shelters caused by the record number of children that have been detained at the border and the difficulty in releasing them to family members created by the US government's own draconian immigration policies.
Under the pretense of imposing more rigorous background checks on family members coming forward to take care of the children in custody—which has included the demand that they be fingerprinted—Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has targeted these caregivers, many of whom are themselves undocumented immigrants, for detention and deportation.
Last month, ICE senior official Matthew Albence testified to Congress that under background check procedures, his agency had since July arrested 41 people who had come forward volunteering to "sponsor" the imprisoned children. An ICE spokesperson told CNN that 70 percent of these arrests were made based on the sole "crime" of being undocumented.
The government's crimes against children detained on the US southern border have only escalated since the Trump administration formally rescinded its policy of separating children from their parents. Yet, they are largely ignored by the media and by the Democratic Party, which put in place the "emergency shelter" regulations now being brutally implemented in Tornillo.


Jeff, Please ignore all the negative comments. Don't give them the attention they crave.
Ok guys look, I'm playing 4 systems. Sometimes they will cross paths. You can actually win both as it has happened a couple times already. I can assure you that most of you don't have a bankroll to play 4 chase systems at same time. I suggest you play what you feel comfortable with.
3689-0 is 100% any way you cut pal............ and you lying right there because your chasing after a loss doubling up to recoup the loss to win 1 unit.
Only blind fools don't see that.
and MY local dosent accept .50 cent wagers as you told others to do using 5 dimes LOL what a toll.
GO ask those who bet for a living see if they agree with you.
37 posts? I wonder how many aliases you must have? Total troll.
Lmao , hows those 14 team parlays working for you? You couldn't be a bigger joke. Oops I wasn't going to respond to morons. Try that out Mr. I'm a donkey see how it works for you. If its so easy you should be able to retire next year.
My doggie dog moneyline is now more healthier. Don't bust a brown dog on us now.
I agree 100%. I basically said the same thing in post #224. They thrive on people responding so let's try our best not to.
Can someone confirm, IF oakland loses tonight, will they be a play tomorrow (E)?
[Quote: Originally Posted by daytradernation] Can someone confirm, IF oakland loses tonight, will they be a play tomorrow (E)?
Chi-TownCovers, I'm sorry and mean no offense to you, but you are driving me crazy. It's NOT LOOSE, it's LOSE. It's absolutely mind boggling to me how many people spell this simple word wrong.
a's will win... have faith.
Bruin LMAO sorry, typing on my phone and just keep typing unless an auto correct pops up.
I'm just curious to know how many units will be layed on Oakland tomorrow to chase that one unit of profit (genuine question).
And before anyone bashes my reading ability, I am just lazy. That doesn't nearly compensate for JEFF not being able to differentiate between YOU'RE and YOUR.
Lol grammar police in action. Mortgage it would depend on tomorrow's line. Hopefully Oakland gets 3 outs in the 9th and your question won't matter..

EMH Intake is often the first point of contact for women or services providers seeking advice on Family Violence issues or secondary consultation.
This is an important pathway and resource for women and service providers as this program offers practical support and information, referrals and advocacy.
The Intake program was established to respond to the increasing demand coming from women experiencing violence or homelessness as well as from other services seeking consultation on a number of issues. The EMH intake worker is able to provide immediate support to a woman and respond to her needs as identified. The Intake worker will continue to either work with the woman if she only requires short term support or if she needs a Case Manager they will work with her until she is allocated.
All women who request support from a Case Manager are tabled at an EMH allocation meeting which are held every fortnight. Women will be allocated to a specific Case Manager based on where the women lives as well as considering the support needs and her level of risk.

Rev. Brady Finnern

Rev. Thomas Eckstein of Concordia Lutheran Church in Jamestown, ND, joins host Rev. Brady Finnern to study Leviticus 27.
The LORD ends Leviticus with a reminder that all of God's people are involved in the uplifting and upkeep of His Church. The Israelites were instructed to give voluntary offerings by devoting a person, animals, house, & land. By His grace He chooses us to provide for the needs of His church so that we may grow in generosity as He is generous to us. We are reminded that we give not because there is a need, but because we have a Savior! "Lord God, as Jesus became poor so that we might become rich, help us to be generous in support of the Gospel and in love towards others. Steer our hearts from trying to find a perfect number, but help us to always grow in generosity. In Christ, Amen"
Thy Strong Word reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light. Each weekday, two pastors fix our eyes on Jesus by considering Holy Scripture, verse by verse, in order to be strengthened in the Word and be equipped to faithfully serve in our daily vocations.
Thy Strong Word is hosted by Rev. Brady Finnern, pastor of Messiah Lutheran Church in Sartell, MN, and graciously underwritten by the Lutheran Heritage Foundation.
Laws About Vows
27 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 2 "Speak to the people of Israel and say to them, If anyone makes a special vow to the Lord involving the valuation of persons, 3 then the valuation of a male from twenty years old up to sixty years old shall be fifty shekels[a] of silver, according to the shekel of the sanctuary. 4 If the person is a female, the valuation shall be thirty shekels. 5 If the person is from five years old up to twenty years old, the valuation shall be for a male twenty shekels, and for a female ten shekels. 6 If the person is from a month old up to five years old, the valuation shall be for a male five shekels of silver, and for a female the valuation shall be three shekels of silver. 7 And if the person is sixty years old or over, then the valuation for a male shall be fifteen shekels, and for a female ten shekels. 8 And if someone is too poor to pay the valuation, then he shall be made to stand before the priest, and the priest shall value him; the priest shall value him according to what the vower can afford.
9 "If the vow[b] is an animal that may be offered as an offering to the Lord, all of it that he gives to the Lord is holy. 10 He shall not exchange it or make a substitute for it, good for bad, or bad for good; and if he does in fact substitute one animal for another, then both it and the substitute shall be holy. 11 And if it is any unclean animal that may not be offered as an offering to the Lord, then he shall stand the animal before the priest, 12 and the priest shall value it as either good or bad; as the priest values it, so it shall be. 13 But if he wishes to redeem it, he shall add a fifth to the valuation.
14 "When a man dedicates his house as a holy gift to the Lord, the priest shall value it as either good or bad; as the priest values it, so it shall stand. 15 And if the donor wishes to redeem his house, he shall add a fifth to the valuation price, and it shall be his.
16 "If a man dedicates to the Lord part of the land that is his possession, then the valuation shall be in proportion to its seed. A homer[c] of barley seed shall be valued at fifty shekels of silver. 17 If he dedicates his field from the year of jubilee, the valuation shall stand, 18 but if he dedicates his field after the jubilee, then the priest shall calculate the price according to the years that remain until the year of jubilee, and a deduction shall be made from the valuation. 19 And if he who dedicates the field wishes to redeem it, then he shall add a fifth to its valuation price, and it shall remain his. 20 But if he does not wish to redeem the field, or if he has sold the field to another man, it shall not be redeemed anymore. 21 But the field, when it is released in the jubilee, shall be a holy gift to the Lord, like a field that has been devoted. The priest shall be in possession of it. 22 If he dedicates to the Lord a field that he has bought, which is not a part of his possession, 23 then the priest shall calculate the amount of the valuation for it up to the year of jubilee, and the man shall give the valuation on that day as a holy gift to the Lord. 24 In the year of jubilee the field shall return to him from whom it was bought, to whom the land belongs as a possession. 25 Every valuation shall be according to the shekel of the sanctuary: twenty gerahs[d] shall make a shekel.
26 "But a firstborn of animals, which as a firstborn belongs to the Lord, no man may dedicate; whether ox or sheep, it is the Lord's. 27 And if it is an unclean animal, then he shall buy it back at the valuation, and add a fifth to it; or, if it is not redeemed, it shall be sold at the valuation.
28 "But no devoted thing that a man devotes to the Lord, of anything that he has, whether man or beast, or of his inherited field, shall be sold or redeemed; every devoted thing is most holy to the Lord. 29 No one devoted, who is to be devoted for destruction[e] from mankind, shall be ransomed; he shall surely be put to death.
30 "Every tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land or of the fruit of the trees, is the Lord's; it is holy to the Lord. 31 If a man wishes to redeem some of his tithe, he shall add a fifth to it. 32 And every tithe of herds and flocks, every tenth animal of all that pass under the herdsman's staff, shall be holy to the Lord. 33 One shall not differentiate between good or bad, neither shall he make a substitute for it; and if he does substitute for it, then both it and the substitute shall be holy; it shall not be redeemed."
34 These are the commandments that the Lord commanded Moses for the people of Israel on Mount Sinai.
Leviticus 27:3 A shekel was about 2/5 ounce or 11 grams
Leviticus 27:9 Hebrew it
Leviticus 27:16 A homer was about 6 bushels or 220 liters
Leviticus 27:25 A gerah was about 1/50 ounce or 0.6 gram
Leviticus 27:29 That is, set apart (devoted) as an offering to the Lord (for destruction)

Q: Groovy neo4j batch import I am using this script http://jexp.de/blog/2014/10/flexible-neo4j-batch-import-with-groovy/ to import csv file to neo4j. The file is quite large: around 60 million lines. I allocated 30GB memory for properties, 30GB for nodes and 30GB for the rest. However, the importer gets stuck at 49 million lines. Is this the memory issue?
The output looks like this
48800000 lines processed in x seconds
48900000 lines processed in y seconds
and then it stops processing and is not moving.

A: Did you miss relationships? Those are the most crucial
And I forgot one in the original example, which is the
neostore.relgroupstore.db=10MB
15 bytes per node
38 bytes per relationship
42 bytes per 4 properties
And do you have actually 128GB of RAM? To accomodate for the memory mapping?
What OS are you using?
Oh and at the end it stops for quite a long time to create the indexes and constraints, that might be the case.
You can add an output before that.

Home Cricket England vs Ireland: 'You all the time wish to beat England,' visiting...
England vs Ireland: 'You all the time wish to beat England,' visiting captain Andy Balbirnie on rivalry between neighbours
History usually performs a key function in figuring out the depth of a rivalry, particularly in the case of worldwide sporting occasions. It holds true for India and Pakistan, particularly in sports activities akin to cricket and hockey, because it does for neighbours Ireland and England.
Ireland may not be England's fiercest rivals purely from a cricketing perspective, given the latter's historical past with different groups akin to Australia, South Africa, the West Indies, India, and so forth coupled with the truth that the Irish cricket remains to be a creating entity. However, given the variety of flashpoints of their shared historical past, together with and particularly Ireland's wrestle for independence from the UK and the next partition of the island, one can perceive the satisfaction that Irish followers derive once they beat the 'enemy' in a sporting occasion, whether or not rugby, soccer or cricket.
Andy Balbirnie, who will probably be main Ireland within the three-ODI series in opposition to England that begins on 30 July, agrees with the notion that historical past between two nations actually does add flavour to a sporting rivalry, including that folks in Ireland nearly develop up hating on the English.
"I don't know if it's as large because the India-Pakistan rivalry, having watched a few of these video games through the years. But, actually rising up as a child in Dublin you're type of introduced as much as not need… to nearly hate the English, whether or not it's rugby or soccer, you all the time wish to beat England, and groups put of their greatest efficiency once they play England.
"There's clearly a lot historical past that I don't know sufficient about, however I do know that it means so much to individuals over in Ireland that at any time when we do play England, it doesn't matter what the game, individuals get behind us and actually need us to achieve success.
"Given the fact that they're world champions as well, it just adds to that rivalry that's already there," Balbirnie instructed Firstpost within the build-up to the series.

The two nations could be much more evenly matched in the case of sports activities akin to rugby, during which England and Ireland are ranked third and fourth respectively within the males's world rankings. However, the disparity between the 2 sides is obvious in the truth that one gained the ICC World Cup final 12 months, whereas the opposite did not even qualify for the ten-team occasion.
Talking concerning the problem that lies forward of them, Balbirnie acknowledged England being world champions does make it all of the tougher even when the squad named for the fixtures has numerous non-regular members. The England-Ireland ODI series has been sandwiched between the West Indies and Pakistan excursions, ensuing within the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) together with numerous recent faces for the Ireland video games. Just eight members of the World Cup-winning squad have been retained, whereas seven of them are but to make their worldwide debut.
"It will probably be an enormous problem. They're clearly the world champions. But it's a totally different squad. They clearly have to select two totally different squads due to the Test series that they've acquired with West Indies and Pakistan upcoming.
"They've still a lot of good cricketers in that squad, a few of us have played county cricket, so we know a lot of their new players and younger players. They've obviously got that core still of Morgan, Bairstow, Roy, Rashid. So they have got experience, players who have played in a World Cup final and have been successful," stated Balbirnie.
However, heading right into a series as underdogs is not one thing that is new to the Irishmen, and Balbirnie believes England's superpower standing within the cricketing world will do little to faze them.
"A lot of our cricket is about dealing with huge challenges because we're playing against the best teams in the world on a regular basis, obviously pre-COVID. So, it won't faze us. It's just important that we go out there and express ourselves and not go into our shells."
England captain Morgan, who had represented Ireland from 2006 to 2009 and was an important cog of their batting unit in these years earlier than switching nationalities, is somebody who instructions numerous respect inside Irish cricket circles, and Balbirnie calls himself lucky to have been enjoying alongside his senior in Middlesex.
"There's numerous respect for Eoin Morgan in Irish cricket for what he's finished. Not only for Irish cricket, however for English cricket and for world cricket. He was clearly a category above everybody else right here on the time and he had an ambition and he fulfilled that ambition.
"There are three or four guys in our squad who are best friends with him, and would be really close with him, played underage cricket with him and played for Middlesex with him. Look, he's a great guy and he's someone who's always good to have a chat with, and I, fortunately, got to play with him in Middlesex when I was there," stated the right-handed batsman.
Will the familiarity between the Irish gamers and Morgan result in some chirping on the centre when the English captain walks out to bat? Balbirnie disagrees.
"I don't think there's going to be extra chirp when he comes in to bat. There's obviously a huge amount of respect for him, not just as a captain but as a cricketer, and we want to get him out as soon as possible obviously because he could be so destructive. But, we'll have plans in place… but in terms of chirping, I don't think so."
Balbirnie was a part of the enjoying XI for every of the three Tests Ireland have performed since coming into the elite membership together with Afghanistan in 2017. Their final Test outing was in opposition to England on the 'Home of Cricket' in July final 12 months, only a few days after the World Cup remaining. The guests threatened to drag off an unlikely upset once they had England bowled out for a paltry 85 of their first innings earlier than gathering a 122-run lead. The second half of the Test nevertheless was a totally totally different story as England scored 303 to set a 182-run goal, and skittled Ireland out for simply 38 — lower than half of what they managed to gather of their first essay.
It stays a particular fixture for Balbirnie personally, as enjoying essentially the most elite type of the game on the hallowed turf of Lord's is not one thing that occurs fairly repeatedly for Irish cricketers. However, when requested concerning the defining second in Irish cricket, Balbirnie selected the 2007 victory over Pakistan within the World Cup as one which the nation on the cricketing map.
"One that I was involved in, for me, it was probably the first day of the Test match at Lord's last year. But I think the most significant for Irish cricket would be 2007 against Pakistan. We've had some great moments since then — Kevin's hundred, beating the West Indies. But I don't think any of that could've happened if it wasn't for that 2007 victory against Pakistan. I don't think I'd be a professional cricketer if it wasn't for that," stated Balbirnie.
The upcoming series will probably be no totally different from the West Indies in that there will probably be no spectators on the floor, with gamers and officers confined to a bio-secure setting during which the COVID-19 protocols will probably be adopted to the T. Southampton, which will probably be internet hosting all three one-dayers, has the added benefit of getting a resort on the Ageas Bowl itself, making the job of isolating gamers all the better for the ECB.

While a lot of cricketers, each former in addition to present, have spoken concerning the 'new regular' of enjoying in entrance of empty stands and the way the game is not fairly the identical with out the noise and vitality that the spectators convey, Balbirnie for one believes the Irish workforce has the benefit of getting used to enjoying cricket within the absence of massive crowds, not like their neighbours.
"Yeah I imply will probably be unusual little doubt. Look, we've performed in stadiums all over the world the place we haven't had many followers in any respect, enjoying Afghanistan within the Test match final 12 months in Dehradun, there wasn't lots of people. Playing some video games within the UAE, there wasn't lots of people. So, we'd most likely be accustomed to it a bit greater than the English guys who're used to enjoying in entrance of packed county grounds, packed worldwide grounds.
"It will probably be totally different not having anybody there, not even household or buddies, so that may take a little bit of getting used to. But it's the identical for each groups. It may come into our favour as a result of they've acquired a few big-game gamers who most likely thrive on the group and the noise, and possibly they could wrestle within the setting of no crowd.
"But, as long as there's live sport happening, I'm happy and luckily we're going to be part of that in the next few weeks," concluded Balbirnie.irel

    @Override
    public int hashCode() {
        _hash = 1;
        _hash = _hash * 17 + x;
        _hash = _hash * 31 + y;
        return _hash;
    }

    @Override
    public boolean equals(Object obj) {
        if(obj instanceof  Point) {
            return (x == ((Point) obj).getX()) && (y == ((Point) obj).getY());
        }
        return false;
    }
}

As you can see in the example above, ChronicleMap behaviour is a bit different from ConcurrentHashMap (same with HashMap) as it can't lookup keys with hashCode or equals.
can someone pinpoint what can be done to fix this ?
UPDATE;
When executed, the program will return the following results:
ConcurrentHashMap.get returned App.Point@38f {12,12}
ChronicleMap.get returned null

A: ChronicleMap serialises the key and takes a 64-bit hash of the bytes.
A 64-bit hash is used as the map is designed for a very large number of keys eg. billions, whereas a 32-bit hash tends to have a high collision rate when you have millions of keys.
It can also use more advanced hashing strategies such as these https://github.com/OpenHFT/Zero-Allocation-Hashing
Note: Using Serializable is the least efficient way to do this but never the less is fine for this example.
