It was great to see a solid attendance at the 2018 Annual General Meeting last night.
After a long and sometimes rewarding season both on and off the field, it was an opportunity hear from the off-field leaders on how the club is progressing and what is planned for 2019 and beyond.
The club would like to thank all of the four outgoing committee members for their fantastic hard and committed work in 2018.
The New Committee for 2019 was elected.
Nic Pavlou was re-elected President for the 10th consecutive year continuing his run as the longest serving President in club history.
Daniel Buckley was re-elected in the role of Secretary for the 6th successive year. Daniel's re-election makes him now the equal longest serving Secretary in the club's history.
Greg Bell was re-elected in the role as of Treasurer for the 4th successive year.
The committee number elected for 2019 will be 16 which is designed to support the Future Growth Strategy and the extra projects we will be working on including growing our Women's Team and the numerous improvement projects we have planned for 2019.
The club showed its leadership stability with 10 committee members re-elected.
We are pleased to announce the new 2019 Power House Football Club Committee.
We were pleased that so many members volunteered their services and help to join the committee in 2019. It's a testament to our great club culture.
We look forward to another tremendous year from the club driven by the hard work of the new committee.


For the last few months there was a tough election poll debate between the Pranab and Sangma nominees for the president post of India in news and media.Then the UPA,NDA had made talks with all the party's and finally votes came to Pranab's way and he made a majority WIN on the opposite person Sangma and WON voting on President of India nomination.
NDA nominee Sangma lost battle with pranab and the UPA was very happy for the win and celebrated.
Mr.Pranab Mukherjee is now the 13th NEW PRESIDENT OF INDIA.
He is the right person for the president seat after his intelligent and successful ministry voyage through out his career.Now he became president of India and till yesterday he was No.2 and Now he is No.1 in the Country fame list.
He had been doing his work very sincerely in his respective post like external affairs,finance minister and etc.
Now he became the president no doubt he will not let us down and he will rule the country in a right and active way.
Till the last lady Mrs.Pratibha Patil 12th president of India had been doing a nice decent job completing her term and now she has to say bye to the rashtrapathi bhavan.Now his seat will be handled by the active energetic aged 70plus years MR.Pranab.
Hope our 13th President of India will do his job and handle all the matters well.Happy President Rule :P.

Learning about the science behind the beauty greatly enhances your enjoyment and appreciation of Badlands National Park.
Drive to Big Badlands Overlook or Windows Overlook to see examples of the erosive forces of nature.
Check out the Ben Reifel Visitors Center to see various exhibits concerning the geology of the Badlands.
Enjoy a morning Ranger Led Geology Walk.
A Geology Lesson
The main geological feature of the Badlands National Park is best described as a long ridge or "wall" that extends nearly 100 miles south into the panhandle of the State of Nebraska. The Wall divides the upper, or northern, grasslands - those "above the Wall" - from those to the south. The latter, on average, are 200 ft lower in elevation.
Over 80 million years ago, this entire region was covered by a huge sea. During that same period, the climate was tropical, being hot and humid. Tremendous sedimentary deposits were laid down and created the bottom most layer of the current geology found in the Park. During the course of the next 20 million years, the sea floor was uplifted and drained by the same geological forces that formed the Rocky Mountains.
Prehistoric animals, including ancient camels, three –toed horses and saber-toothed tigers lived on the dried up lakebed. The remains of these animals are continuing to be uncovered in the region. The on going erosion in the Badlands is the result of the freeze-thaw cycle of water and other natural occurring conditions, including wind and rains. The bizarre landforms called badlands are, despite the uninviting name, a masterpiece of water and wind sculptured erosion.
Hikes and Attractions
Any place you travel in Badlands National Park, you can see examples of the powerful work of nature as it carved out portions of the land. The evidence of the strong erosive factors can be seen on every hike and in the view from your car are you travel the Park roads.
Big Badlands Overlook provides one of the best views of The Wall from above. The characteristic terraced cliffs of the badlands drop down to the lower prairie, and the White River.
Windows Overlook The "windows" for which this overlook is named are the notches which have eroded out of the top of the cliffs. This overlook also serves as the trail head for three short nature trails - the Door, Window, and Notch Trails.
Cliff Shelf was created many years ago, when a giant block of stone fell from the surrounding cliffs, creating this relatively flat shelf. The compression factor of the impact of the fall compacted the stone, making it less porous. Water now collects here. The resulting vegetation makes this an oasis in the otherwise barren wall.
Ben Reifel Visitors Center sits on the floor of the lower prairie. The Visitors Center contains various exhibits which provide a good introduction to the park's history and geology. Near the Visitors Center the Wall towers up to 150 ft above the upper grasslands and up to 450 ft above the lower grasslands.
Ranger Led Geology Walks take place from May 30th to September 11, 2010. They begin each day at 8:30 am and explore the story of the White River Badlands.

A "must read" front page article by New York Times reporter, Duff Wilson, "Child's Ordeal Shows Risks of Antipsychotic Drugs," (below) should prompt responsible public health officials to take action to protect children from irresponsible doctors who prescribe dangerous toxic drugs to control behavior—not for any medical justification.
In particular, children need to be protected from child psychiatrists whose radical prescribing practices have caused children irreparable harm.
The article describes the plight of Kyle Warren, a young boy who, at 18 months was prescribed Risperdal, a powerful antipsychotic drug that had been approved only for adults with schizophrenia or acute manic episodes. However, by age 3, he was on a regimen that included 5 psychotropic drugs–including Risperdal, Prozac, two sleeping pills, and a drug for so-called attention-deficit disorder.
Kyle is one of at least 500,000 American children caught in the clutches of professionally incompetent, irresponsible doctors who betray their medical responsibility to "first, do no harm." Little Kyle was rescued and weaned off the drugs by competent, knowledgeable psychiatrists at Tulane University who helped him recover. Other children prescribed such drug cocktails—including, Rebecca Riley , Emilio Villamar — have died as a result.
Dr. Mary Margaret Gleason, a professor of pediatrics and child psychiatry at Tulane who treated Kyle from ages 3 to 5 as he was weaned off the heavy medications. The Times reports that she said "there was no valid medical reason to give antipsychotic drugs to the boy, or virtually any other 2-year-old. "It's disturbing," she said.
The misprescribing of antipsychotics for children is tantamount to child abuse. A contributing factor is that American doctors can legally prescribe any FDA-approved drug for unapproved uses without any special training about the drug's risks—including to preschoolers. It appears that none of the black box label warnings have had much of an effect of American child psychiatrists who continue to expose hundreds of thousands of children to drug-induced harm.
American psychiatrists' prescribing practices have been carefully shaped by the pharmaceutical industry and industry's highly paid influential collaborators in academic medicine. The result is that American children are being harmed by doctors sworn to "do no harm."
Child psychiatrist, Dr. Joseph Biederman, of Harvard University, has been "credited" with spearheading the unprecedented, medically unsupportable prescribing of antipsychotic drug prescriptions for 2 to 5 year olds.
We believe that American doctors should no longer be given carte blanche to prescribe antipsychotics for children.
The FDA should limit the prescribing of antipsychotics for children by designating these drugs a controlled substance under the Psychotropic Substances Act (1978).
Doctors should be prohibited from prescribing these dangerous major tranquilizers for children without written concurrence by two experienced physicians who have no financial ties to drug manufacturers.
OPELOUSAS, La. — At 18 months, Kyle Warren started taking a daily antipsychotic drug on the orders of a pediatrician trying to quell the boy's severe temper tantrums.
Thus began a troubled toddler's journey from one doctor to another, from one diagnosis to another, involving even more drugs. Autism, bipolar disorder, hyperactivity, insomnia, oppositional defiant disorder. The boy's daily pill regimen multiplied: the antipsychotic Risperdal, the antidepressant Prozac, two sleeping medicines and one for attention-deficit disorder. All by the time he was 3.
Today, 6-year-old Kyle is in his fourth week of first grade, scoring high marks on his first tests. He is rambunctious and much thinner. Weaned off the drugs through a program affiliated with Tulane University that is aimed at helping low-income families whose children have mental health problems, Kyle now laughs easily and teases his family.
Ms. Warren and Kyle's new doctors point to his remarkable progress — and a more common diagnosis for children of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder — as proof that he should have never been prescribed such powerful drugs in the first place.
Kyle now takes one drug, Vyvanse, for his attention deficit. His mother shared his medical records to help document a public glimpse into a trend that some psychiatric experts say they are finding increasingly worrisome: ready prescription-writing by doctors of more potent drugs to treat extremely young children, even infants, whose conditions rarely require such measures.
More than 500,000 children and adolescents in America are now taking antipsychotic drugs, according to a September 2009 report by the Food and Drug Administration. Their use is growing not only among older teenagers, when schizophrenia is believed to emerge, but also among tens of thousands of preschoolers.
A Columbia University study recently found a doubling of the rate of prescribing antipsychotic drugs for privately insured 2- to 5-year-olds from 2000 to 2007. Only 40 percent of them had received a proper mental health assessment, violating practice standards from the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry.
"There are too many children getting on too many of these drugs too soon," Dr. Mark Olfson, professor of clinical psychiatry and lead researcher in the government-financed study, said.
Such radical treatments are indeed needed, some doctors and experts say, to help young children with severe problems stay safe and in school or day care. In 2006, the F.D.A. did approve treating children as young as 5 with Risperdal if they had autistic disorder and aggressive behavior, self-injury tendencies, tantrums or severe mood swings. Two other drugs, Seroquel from AstraZeneca and Abilify from Bristol-Myers Squibb, are permitted for youths 10 or older with bipolar disorder.
But many doctors say prescribing them for younger and younger children may pose grave risks to development of both their fast-growing brains and their bodies. Doctors can legally prescribe them for off-label use, including in preschoolers, even though research has not shown them to be safe or effective for children. Boys are far more likely to be medicated than girls.
Dr. Ben Vitiello, chief of child and adolescent treatment and preventive research at the National Institute of Mental Health, says conditions in young children are extremely difficult to diagnose properly because of their emotional variability. "This is a recent phenomenon, in large part driven by the misperception that these agents are safe and well tolerated," he said.
Even the most reluctant prescribers encounter a marketing juggernaut that has made antipsychotics the nation's top-selling class of drugs by revenue, $14.6 billion last year, with prominent promotions aimed at treating children. In the waiting room of Kyle's original child psychiatrist, children played with Legos stamped with the word Risperdal, made by Johnson & Johnson. It has since lost its patent on the drug and stopped handing out the toys.
Greg Panico, a company spokesman, said the Legos were not intended for children to play with — only as a promotional item.
Dr. Lawrence L. Greenhill, president of the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, concerned about the lack of research, has recommended a national registry to track preschoolers on antipsychotic drugs for the next 10 years. "Psychotherapy is the key to the treatment of preschool children with severe mental disorders, and antipsychotics are adjunctive therapy — not the other way around," he said.
But it is cheaper to medicate children than to pay for family counseling, a fact highlighted by a Rutgers University study last year that found children from low-income families, like Kyle, were four times as likely as the privately insured to receive antipsychotic medicines.
Texas Medicaid data obtained by The New York Times showed a record $96 million was spent last year on antipsychotic drugs for teenagers and children — including three unidentified infants who were given the drugs before their first birthdays.
In addition, foster care children seem to be medicated more often, prompting a Senate panel in June to ask the Government Accountability Office to investigate such practices.
In the last few years, doctors' concerns have led some states, like Florida and California, to put in place restrictions on doctors who want to prescribe antipsychotics for young children, requiring a second opinion or prior approval, especially for those on Medicaid. Some states now report prescriptions are declining as a result.
A study released in July by 16 state Medicaid medical directors, which once had the working title "Too Many, Too Much, Too Young," recommended that more states require second opinions, outside consultation or other methods to assure proper prescriptions. The F.D.A. has also strengthened warnings about using some of these drugs in treating children.
Kyle was rescued from his medicated state through a therapy program called Early Childhood Supports and Services, established in Louisiana through a confluence of like-minded child psychiatrists at Tulane, Louisiana State University and the state. It surrounds troubled children and their parents with social and mental health support services.
Dr. Mary Margaret Gleason, a professor of pediatrics and child psychiatry at Tulane who treated Kyle from ages 3 to 5 as he was weaned off the heavy medications, said there was no valid medical reason to give antipsychotic drugs to the boy, or virtually any other 2-year-old. "It's disturbing," she said.
Dr. Gleason says Kyle's current status proves he probably never had bipolar disorder, autism or psychosis. His doctors now say Kyle's tantrums arose from family turmoil and language delays, not any of the diagnoses used to justify antipsychotics.
Kyle was a healthy baby physically, but he was afraid of some things. He spent hours lining up toys. When upset, he screamed, threw objects, even hit his head on the wall or floor — not uncommon for toddlers, but frightening.
When Kyle's behavior worsened after his brother was born, Ms. Warren turned to a pediatrician, Dr. Martin J. deGravelle.
"Within five minutes of sitting with him, he looked at me and said, 'He has autism, there's no doubt about it,' " Ms. Warren said.
He prescribed Risperdal. At the time, Risperdal was approved by the F.D.A. only for adults with schizophrenia or acute manic episodes. The following year it was approved for certain children, 5 and older, with autism and extremely aggressive behavior. It has never been approved by the F.D.A. for use in children younger than 5, although doctors may legally prescribe it as an off-label use.
"Kyle at the time was very aggressive and easily agitated, so you try to find medication that can make him more easily controlled, because you can't reason with an 18-month-old," Dr. deGravelle said in a telephone interview. But Kyle was not autistic — according to several later evaluations, including one that Dr. deGravelle arranged with a neurologist. Kyle did not have the autistic child's core deficit of social interaction, Dr. Gleason said. Instead, he craved more positive attention from his mother.
After the neurologist review, the diagnosis changed to "oppositional defiant disorder" and the Risperdal continued.
Dr. deGravelle referred her to Dr. Concepcion, who in turn diagnosed Kyle's condition as bipolar disorder.
Dr. Concepcion also spoke with Dr. Charles H. Zeanah, a Tulane medical professor, who disagreed with both the diagnosis and the treatment. "I have never seen a preschool child with bipolar disorder in 30 years as a child psychiatrist specializing in early childhood mental health," Dr. Zeanah said.
He also prescribed four more pills.
Kyle's third birthday photo shows a pink-cheeked boy who had ballooned to 49 pounds. Obesity and diabetes are childhood risks of antipsychotics. Kyle smiles at the camera. He is sedated.
Dr. Concepcion referred Kyle to the early childhood support program, which has helped about 3,000 preschoolers from low-income families at risk for mental health problems since 2002.
Kyle's treatment was directed by Dr. Gleason, a Columbia medical graduate who had led a team that wrote 2007 practice guidelines for psychopharmacological treatment of very young children.
Off most drugs, Kyle started losing weight and his behavior improved. Ms. Warren's life also improved. She met a man and they moved into their own house five miles out of Opalousas, a town of 25,000. They were married last Saturday.
Kyle paused to show a reading report card from the end of his kindergarten year, with an A grade.
"Awesome job, Kyle!" his kindergarten teacher wrote.

Nearly a week ago C & I went on our first couponing adventure, then we also worked to create a coupon binder! I blogged about both adventures, and have since received numerous emails asking to learn more about where we got our coupons from and our "strategy." I am going to try to answer as many of the readers questions below.
Our first step was to make our grocery list on a sheet of paper (we made our list from our rolling monthly meal plan list). Then we went through the coupons and pulled out any that are applicable to our needs. Marking a "C" beside each item on the list that we havd a coupon for.
Then we broke up the grocery list down by store, and separated our coupons by store. We placed the list and coupons for each store inside an envelope (or you could stick the coupons inside the envelope that you wrote your list on).
C and I made a pac to follow the grocery list while we were shopping and used the list to quickly spot which items we had a coupon for I also suggest bringing your coupon book to the store, as sometimes you will spot an unadvertised deal. We found several!
Where did you get your coupons?
So what did we do..
ask friends, family, co-workers, neighbors, etc. to save them for you.
To always remember if the coupon says "off any size" then buy the smallest size. This is a better price deal.
If an item on sale at the store is out of stock, we will always ask for a raincheck.
hope this helps to answer some of your questions. In the end C & I plan to continue couponing, and we would like to do one "Extreme Couponing" haul to donate to a local shelter. But don't plan to gain a stockpile in our home. We plan on working together to acquire the coupons we need and to have fun while doing so. The day it becomes a burden is the day we stop. Because lets face it time is money, and are not willing to spend hours, upon hours clipping coupons.
Britian, my boss at work is super into the couponing also. she was telling me some very interesting tips.
1) publix is so about their customers thinking they are the best that they accept any coupon from something they consider competition. ie. walmart, target, new leaf etc.
2) they also allow stacking which is that you can use multiple of the same ones.

Q: Program getting stuck in a function call after the garbage collector getting called I'm building a windows aplication in Go using pure win32 api functions. My application suddenly hangs or gets stuck out of nowhere randomly. No error message or panic from go debugger. And the worst part is the problem is not appearing all the time but occasionally. I tried to put some 'log.Println' here and there in my program to trace exactly where it's getting stuck at and it appeared it's getting stuck at random places at random function calls but mostly, it's getting stuck at win32 api function calls like 'DefWindowProc' or 'GetMessage'. Over time my project got bigger and the more it got bigger the more often the problem seems to appear. So I tried to minimize the codes, simplify and comment out codes as much possible to see if the problem still occurs and I don't know it isn't helping much cause the problem just occurring randomly and my mind is a mess now.
I can just post codes from my original program but I'm not sure if those would help or not. I can show them if required. Now I've discovered something else which may or may not be related to my original problem. I was thinking if the garbage collector causing it since it gets called randomly if I'm doing something that is not GC friendly. I really don't know but here is this simple code. I never called the GC manually in my original application codes but here I'm doing it for test purpose.
package main

import (
    "log"
    "runtime"
    "syscall"

    "github.com/AllenDang/w32"
)

func main() {

    w32.CreateWindowEx(
        0, syscall.StringToUTF16Ptr("Button"), syscall.StringToUTF16Ptr("Hello World!"),
        w32.WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW|w32.WS_VISIBLE,
        100, 100, 1200, 800, 0, 0, 0, nil)

    runtime.GC()

    var msg w32.MSG
    for {
        log.Println("Calling 'GetMessage'")
        if w32.GetMessage(&msg, 0, 0, 0) == 0 {
            break
        }
        log.Println("End Calling 'GetMessage'")
        w32.TranslateMessage(&msg)
        w32.DispatchMessage(&msg)
    }
    return
}

The program doesn't go past the 'GetMessage' it gets stuck there. But if I comment out the 'runtime.GC()' then it does work perfectly. I'm coming from C++ and new to Go. I don't know much about how Go language's garbage collector works and I don't seem find any garbage that's getting collected there in those codes. Please help me out I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

A: It seems @JimB is right, I need to call runtime.LockOSThread before calling the OS API functions. If I call runtime.LockOSThread before calling them the program doesn't hang anymore. Still a lot to learn for sure.

The Marquette Golden Eagles kicked off Big East play with a win over Butler on Tuesday night. Anna Haak led all attackers with 13 kills while Jenna Rosenthal added 12 of her own. The Golden Eagles are now tied for first place in the Big East with Xavier at 1-0. Marquette returns home for the weekend to host east coast rivals St. John's and Seton Hall.

Seton Hall has had a rough start to the season. Starting just 6-7, the Pirates have dropped their last five matches. Three of those five losses have come by sweeps and the other two matches went down to the last set. Like a lot of teams in the Big East, Seton Hall did not play a very hard non conference schedule besides getting swept by Colorado who just entered the top 25 this week. The Pirates now look to open Big East play with a win over our beloved Golden Eagles, but folks I don't really see how that's possible.
Middle blocker battle alert! Leading the offense for the Pirates is Abby Thelen. The 6-1 middle blocker is averaging 3.85 k/s and has recorded 204 kills on the season. Thelen recorded a double-double with 24 kills and 21 digs against Buffalo early in the season. Also leading the Pirates is Sharay Barnes with 131 kills (2.47 k/s). The 6-2 outside is a grad student transfer from Kentucky. Barnes recorded 15 kills in the loss to VCU. Look for Jenna Rosenthal to be all over Thelen. Rosenthal is coming off of a huge game against Butler and will use her height advantage to block and continue her impressive attacking against the Pirates.
Setting for the Pirates is Sophia Coffey and Maggie Cvelbar. Seton Hall goes with the joint setter look, but Coffey gets a bulk of the sets averaging 5.58 assists per set. Cvelbar is not too far behind Coffey averaging 3.98 assists per set. Coffey recorded a season high 33 assists in the win over Buffalo while Cvelbar recorded a season high 29 against Bowling Green.
My prediction for this one is Marquette in three. Seton Hall is on a tough losing streak and I don't see them beating Marquette. Everyone on Marquette is contributing right now and the team is going to be very successful if that continues to happen.
Big East Match #3: vs St. John's Red Storm (8-7)

St. John's hasn't really showed fans much this season. They have beat a bunch of teams that are worse than they are and have only played one top 100 team in Baylor. There best win came over Colgate who is considered the 105th best team in the country. The Johnnies are gonna be in for a rough one against Marquette.
Leading the offense for the Johnnies is Julia Cast and Julia Cast only. Cast ranks second in the Big East in kills per set with 4.15, which, y'know, is pretty good. She has recorded 216 kills overall this season. No one on St. John's will help Cast out on offense. The second leading attacker on St. John's is Jordan McCalla with 145 kills. Cast is almost averaging 2 more kills per set than anyone else on the team. I'm interested in what St. John's will do when they find out Elizabeth Orf will be all over Cast like white on rice and that they need someone to try and score them some points. If Cast gets locked down, this might be a quick one at the Al.
Setting for the Red Storm is Erica Di Maulo. The six foot setter from Italy leads the Johnnies with 543 assists so far this season. She is averaging 10.44 a/s so far which ranks 6th in the Big East. Di Maulo was named co-Big East Freshman of the Year last season with Marquette's Allie Barber. Also something to note, St. John's has two of the top four blockers in the Big East in Danisha Moss and Hanna Wagner. St. John's has the talent to be a good team they just need to help out Julia Cast on offense if they want to be successful.
My prediction for this one is again Marquette in three. The Golden Eagles are going to have to deal with the Johnnies' top blockers and Cast, but I think they will do just fine. If Jenna Rosenthal and Elizabeth Orf can use their blocking powers on Cast, St. John's will have no offense which will lead to a Marquette win.

SPAA's Brian Rosen calls on government to raise support for local content
13 November, 2012 by Brendan Swift
Screen Producers Association of Australia (SPAA) president Brian Rosen has called on the government to implement the convergence review recommendations and increase its support for local screen content.
The convergence review was released earlier this year and made a range of sweeping recommendations including doubling the level of the Producer Offset to 40 per cent for "premium" television and potentially requiring a wider range of companies, dubbed "content service enterprises", to contribute to the cost of producing local content. However, the government has yet to respond to the recommendations after several months.
"Two of our three commercial free-to-air networks are foreign owned," Rosen said at the 2012 SPAA conference. "Why am I cynical about their allegiance to Australian content? Why do I feel that given half the chance they would do away with Australian content if the cost of acquiring it affected their bottom line. And as for the telcos – forget it – they are no way engaged in screening Australian content."
The industry is also grappling with uncertainty about the definition of a "documentary" after the government, as part of its May budget, said it plans to release guidelines which would apply retrospectively from July. The new guidelines are expected to limit the type of "documentary" which would qualify for the 20 per cent Producer Offset after Screen Australia lost a court case in March challenging Essential Media and Entertainment's claim that cleaning series Lush House was a documentary.
"If the government really wants to change the legislation then at the very least do not do it at this late stage in a retrospective manner," Rosen said. "How can we run our businesses with this kind of uncertainty hanging over us. How can we seek investment or borrow finance when the future as to how our businesses operate is so unclear. And to add to that why is government looking at ways to restrict what can access the Producer Offset when in fact it should be supporting growth."
He also called on the government to raise the 16.5 per cent Location Offset to 30 per cent and broaden the Offset to include interactive games.
He challenged the ongoing argument that the government is under fiscal pressure and cannot afford to make such changes.
"There are $40 billion being spent on the NBN that allows content from all over the world to be readily available to Australians but they cannot afford to put Australian content into that pipeline. Surely out of $40… billion a miserable $1 billion could be found to ensure that Australians see themselves reflected on screens with pride."
Arts minister Simon Crean will speak at the SPAA Conference later this week.

Official: Infinix HOT 12 Pro debuts with UNISOC T616, 50MP dual cameras & 18W fast-charging
by Joe August 23, 2022 August 23, 2022 0
Chinese electronics giant Infinix has announced a new entry-level smartphone dubbed as the Infinix HOT 12 Pro in the Asian market. As you can probably tell from the moniker itself, this will be (slightly) bumped up model of the April-announced HOT 12 model.
The new Infinix HOT 12 Pro builds around a 6.6" IPS LCD display featuring a HD+ screen resolution along with 90Hz refresh rate. As usual, the phone adopts a waterdrop-notch design to accommodate an 8 megapixels front-facing camera for selfies and video calls.
On the imaging front, the main camera will receive a huge upgrade from a 13MP imaging sensor to a high-res 50MP imaging sensor. This will be rounded out by an auxiliary AI lens as well as a LED flash.
Under the hood, the Infinix HOT 12 Pro is powered by an octa-core UNISOC T616 chipset which will be paired with up to 8GB RAM and 128GB onboard storage which can be further expanded via a microSD card.
The device will be backed by a respectable 5,000mAh battery which carries support for 18W fast-charging. It'll be shipped with a custom XOS 10.6 based on Android 12 OS out of the box.
Those who're interested can pick the phone from four different colorways such as Racing Black, Electric Blue, Lightsaber Green and Halo White. Pricing from the phone starts from INR 10,499 ($131) for the 6GB+64GB model and goes up to INR 11,999 ($150) for the top-of-the-line model with 8GB+128GB configuration.

I don't think blowing it up is the way to go
I may be the only person in Boston who isn't excited about this deal. I think it stems from the fact that I wasn't actually that down on the Red Sox in the first place. Is it possible that the current clubhouse is an absolute mess, and the roster was in need of a major shakeup? Yes. But you know what? Adrian Gonzalez is a really good player. So is Carl Crawford. And we forget that even public enemy #1, Josh Beckett, was an All-Star; last year. What if the lack of success this season actually has nothing to do with fielding a squad full of overpaid unlikable players?
Crawford and Gonzalez are too good to give up on.
What if it's just bad luck? The Red Sox have put 25 players on the disabled list this season, the most for any MLB team since 1987. At 60-66 they still have a run differential of +28. By comparison the Wild Card leading Orioles (68-57) are -52 for the season. Those numbers indicate the two teams could easily be flip flopped in the standings. And despite all the injuries to the offense, the Sox have still managed to score the second most runs (615, Texas has 645) in the American League. If the pitching had been just a little better, we'd be looking at whole different situation right now.
I keep hearing about the 250+ million dollars Boston will now save. This isn't the NBA. Getting rid of big contracts doesn't make you better. I don't imagine the Sox ownership is having any sort of financial troubles. They can go out and sign whoever they like, regardless of what the current payroll is.
To me this trade feels like a bit of a panic move by the Red Sox, a dramatic change made to get the angry media and fans off their back (something they didn't do last winter). Even though I had recently given up any hope for this season, I still thought they would definitely be a contender next year. Now I'm not so sure.
"Nintendo Power" is no more
The first ever issue of "Nintendo Power"
It was announced the other day that at the end of this year, Nintendo Power will cease publication. I have to be honest, I kind of assumed that magazine went out of business about 20 years ago. I feel as if magazines in general are mostly a dead technology, and the type of people who play video games seem a lot more likely to get their info from the magical interweb than something that only comes once a month in the mail. But I guess that's why it's finally shutting down.
When I was eleven, Nintendo Power was amazing. In fact, I liked it so much that a couple of my friends and I created our own version using "Print Shop" on an Apple IIGS. We called it "N.E.S. News," and I think we even managed to sell a few copies to some other kids in school for about 35 cents each. I was our treasurer, and I kept our finances in a Pringles Potato Chips can. There is also a very good chance that when our reign of publication came to an end (after either 2 or 3 issues, I can't remember) I embezzled all of that money from my two buddies, somewhere in the ballpark of 6 or 7 dollars. I feel a little guilty.
Moving on, this clip is pretty cool. I actually remember all of the covers for the first 35 seconds or so. I must have stopped renewing my subscription in 1990...
If it looks like a duck, and it quacks like a duck, sometimes it means Bartolo Colon used steroids.
There's no way this guy should still be in the big leagues at 39.
A week ago I wrote a post suggesting that we probably should have seen Melky Cabrera's steroid suspension coming. There was a clear spike in his numbers at the beginning of last season. Yesterday Bartolo Colon received the same 50 game suspension from MLB for illegal testosterone use. But in this case, I did see it coming. Coincidently (?) also at the beginning of last season. Here's my reaction from last May (5/31/11) to Colon's surprisingly successful return to the majors.
First Melky, then Bartolo, who's next? Jose Bautista? David Ortiz? Derek Jeter (gasp)? I'm kind of hoping we get more and more of these suspensions as the season unfolds; it'll be complete chaos.
Awesome Old Song of the Week: "Centerfold" by the J. Geils Band
This is the oldest song that I recall actually being aware of while it was popular. Centerfold was released in September of 1981, and became a number one hit in the winter/spring of 1982. I had no idea who the J. Geils Band was. I obviously had no clue what the lyrics were, or what the song was about. I didn't know what it was called; and I can't tell you where or how I heard it. But I have a vivid memory of myself and my best friend at 4 or 5 years old, building with wooden blocks in my bedroom, and singing the "Na-nah, na-na-na-nah" part of the chorus. And I just discovered right now that they are from Worcester, MA. Awesome.
Olympic Sprinter on the Patriots?
Can this guy really play in the NFL?
Last week the Pats signed free agent Jeff Demps, a former University of Florida Gator and member of the USA silver medal winning 4 X 100 meter relay team. He'll practice for the first time tomorrow. My question is this: if a guy is a serious NFL prospect, and he literally has "world class speed," how does he go undrafted? Obviously there is much more to playing football than running fast. You have to put on pads, stop, start, change direction, and accelerate quickly; not to mention sustain bone jarring hits from very large men.
At Florida Demps returned some kicks, caught a few passes, and was a part time running back as well. But can he actually do any of those things well enough to play for the Pats? I hope he makes the New England roster, and if he does it could be a great story to follow. But, my guess is he won't make much of an impact. Scouts say he has average hands, and he is definitely undersized (5'8" and 185 pounds or so) for an NFL running back. At Florida his yards per carry dropped each year (from 7.8 as a freshman to 5.8 as a senior), plus he hasn't done anything football related since the Gators bowl game last January 2nd. And now he's got less than two weeks to try land himself a spot on the Patriots.
Unlikeable Red Sox?
Carl Crawford appears to be done for the year.
So the Red Sox are extremely disappointing at the moment, and everyone is pretty much sick of them; which is totally understandable. In fact if you read my latest post for CLNSRadio, you'll find that it looks like they're basically giving up and shutting down Carl Crawford for the rest of the season. I don't blame anyone for not wanting to watch anymore; I have to write about them and I'm barely even paying any attention at this point.
But, the thing that's funny to me is how often I keep hearing the word "unlikable" used to describe them, Josh Beckett in particular. I'm fairly certain he was just as big a jerk back in 2007 when he looked like one of the greatest postseason pitchers ever. The only reason people care now is because he gets lit up for about 6 earned runs every time he takes the mound. There's nothing any more or less likable about the guys on this year's team than any others in the past. The only difference is that we think they should be winning and they're not.
Is this guy my doppelganger?
A few of my friends saw this Lowe's commercial, and said that this guy looks exactly like me:
In the past I have also been told I look like Chris Martin from Coldplay, and the wrestler "Triple H." What do you think?
Admittedly, if you don't know me this blog isn't very good. In that case just go read my previous entry regarding dopplegangers, I think it's pretty funny.
If it looks like a duck, and it quacks like a duck...

Rochester is voting on a Police Accountability Board. What you need to know
Brian Sharp
City residents have to flip their ballots this election to get to the referendum on the other side.
That referendum deals with a proposed Police Accountability Board.
A lawsuit brought by the police union put the matter on hold for a time, but a regional appeals court ruled the vote can go forward.
What is a Police Accountability Board?
As proposed, the Police Accountability Board would be established as an independent office of city government to investigate allegations of misconduct by sworn officers up to and including the chief.
The nine-member board would be assisted by an executive director and staff, and have subpoena power, the authority to impose discipline, and to assess RPD practices and procedures.
No more than one member could have a law enforcement background, as long as that is not with RPD and they have been out of the job for at least three years. RPD command staff would be made available to the board to answer questions. The existing civilian review board would remain in place until an executive director is hired.
The ballot question reads in full:
This proposal would amend the Rochester City Charter to authorize the creation of the Police Accountability Board (PAB). The PAB would consist of nine unpaid Rochester residents: one appointed by the Mayor and eight appointed by the City Council; four of the Council's appointees will be nominated by a coalition of community organizations. The PAB would have the power to independently investigate civilian complaints, subpoena information for its investigations, and determine whether individual officers have committed misconduct. The PAB will also create disciplinary guidelines, with an opportunity for input from the Chief of Police and the police union. If the PAB finds, after a hearing, that an officer has committed misconduct, the Chief of Police would be required to impose discipline consistent with disciplinary guidelines. The PAB would also recommend changes to the Police Department's policies, practices, and training.
What advocates say about the referendum
City Council members and advocates say the board will help build greater community trust in the Police Department and give residents a voice in how their community is policed.
The current system of a citizen advisory board and internal RPD process, with the police chief as arbiter, isn't working, according to members of the grass-roots Police Accountability Board Alliance.
"Police cannot police themselves, the data is pretty clear," said Ted Forsyth, a member of the alliance's executive committee. "We want justice for our community, real justice (and) real accountability."
Statistics of the Civilian Review Board and RPD's professional standards division differ when it comes to the number of cases or complaints received. Complaints have been on the decline. But the total over the past 15 years is in the hundreds, Forsyth said, with fewer than a couple dozen sustained and fewer still resulting in discipline.
He casts the board as part of an ongoing discussion and effort, also including body-worn cameras, that has brought greater attention to concerns in the criminal justice system
"This has all been part and parcel of the struggle," Forsyth said. "This is cumulative."
The alliance has raised nearly $9,500 and spent $3,850, according to the group's latest filing with the New York state Board of Elections.
What opponents say about the referendum
Whether the proposal will withstand a legal challenge, if approved, is a lingering question.
The union argues it won't — claiming that delegating disciplinary authority to the board violates local, state and federal laws, as well as the union's labor contract — and plans to sue. Last month's lawsuit raised those concerns but failed, with the courts declining to rule on the merits because the union was unable to show it had yet been harmed.
Green light:Court allows referendum to move forward
Mayor Lovely Warren last December proposed an competing plan that would have established a board with full investigative powers but left disciplinary authority with the chief. The administration described its plan as "legally permissible," arguing that "other proposals" would not withstand legal challenge.
"The mayor is supportive of this process playing out," a spokesman for Warren said Friday, adding that she "will comply with the outcome of the referendum."
Warren included $350,000 in her 2019-20 budget proposal to cover the first partial year of the operations of the board.
"The most important thing is the data does not support all of these changes," said union president Mike Mazzeo.
For 2019 to date, he said, RPD has logged 31 complaints, most of those initiated internally — not from citizens. Eight involve some type of force. He also cited surveys by Rochester Institute of Technology showing strong levels of trust in RPD. Those surveys typically involved fewer than 100 respondents.
Mazzeo further argued that police have multiple layers of accountability, including the administration and county, state and federal prosecutors.
More:Council OKs police watchdog board approved. What's next?

Q: Update variable tied to Behavior Subject without updating the Behavior Subject I have a behavior subject that takes a User object defined like this:
userObservable = new BehaviorSubject<User>(null);

I then have a function that gets the current value of it, makes some changes to local variable and POST the changes but I don't want to change the value of the Behavior Subject:
const newUser = this.userDetailsObservable.getValue()
newUser.fName = 'John'

this.sendData(newUser)

In doing this, the Behavior Subject changes without me calling .next(). How do I make local changes to a variable of a behavior subject without actually changing the behavior subject?

A: getValue() doesn't change the value of behavior subject. it could have been changed in sendData. You can create a new instance of your object to not have any reference and check if it is still changing
you can use spread
const newUser = {...this.userDetailsObservable.getValue()}
or you can use old classic way as
const newUser = JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(this.userDetailsObservable.getValue()));

Bulldog thrower signs to West Point
Jake Dirkse signed his National Letter of Intent to the United State Military Academy West Point (Army) to compete in Division-I track and field for the Army Mules (Photo contributed).

Turlock High alum Jake Dirkse has had big dreams and goals from a young age, one of them was to attend the U.S. Military Academy at West Point and compete in collegiate athletics at the NCAA Division-I level.
On Jan. 2, that goal came to fruition when Dirkse signed his National Letter of Intent after receiving a full-ride scholarship for track and field to compete in the shot-put, discus and javelin for the D-I athletic program.
Helping to make Dirkse's collegiate dreams come true was family friend and a local Olympian thrower Suzy Powell.
Powell is a three-time Olympian who competed in the Olympics in 1996, 2000 and 2008.
"Honestly, without Suzy I wouldn't have been able to get to West Point, I wouldn't have gotten in track and field without her help," said Dirkse.
With the help of his parents, Dirkse was able to get in touch with Powell in February of last year, and from there it all just fell in place.
Dirkse had a standout year as a linebacker for the Turlock High football team, but when he was done, there were no offers. He didn't think much of it and moved to his spring sport, track and field.
While playing football at THS, Dirkse and the Bulldogs went 8-4 during his senior season (fall 2018), clinching a playoff berth while also winning the first ever Central California Athletic League title following a perfect 5-0 season in league play.
Dirkse earned second-team honors for the All-Journal/All-Area team while his team went undefeated in his two seasons in varsity, going 6-0 in their final season in the CCC in the fall of 2017.
The Bulldog had attended West Point's football camp and had a goal of playing in the Army-Navy game.
"But after my senior year, I didn't really expect it to work out," Dirkse said.
Weeks after concluding football, Dirkse who was standing at 6-foot-2, weighing around 215-pounds was in a bit of a limbo.
He went to work in track and field and found some next level help.
"That is what happens when an Olympic coach gets a hold of you, and he had a great cycle and I saw potential with Jake in many aspects," said Powell.
Dirkse made it clear that his goal was to compete collegiately at West Point, and so Powell reached out to the academy's coaches and built a relationship.
Since the admission time was too late for Dirkse to be admitted to West Point, his other choice was to attend Modesto Junior College as a part-time student and grey shirt. That is what he did.
A grey shirt is an incoming college freshman who postpones his enrollment in classes until the second term of his freshman year. This means they don't take classes until the winter term. The NCAA allows college athletes five years to complete four years of eligibility after initial enrollment.
From there, he has been working with Powell leading up to his departure. Powell is currently serving as the throwing coach at MJC.
"He has been a delight to coach," said Powell. "He is an athlete that wants to understand more in all aspects and to get rewarded for his work. As a coach it is highly rewarding, and he is eager to please and he comes from a great family. So nice to see someone take the opportunity and go with it, and put themselves in a position, and showing up to practice and go beyond what is asked and actually doing it."
As soon as Dirkse graduated, he was back in the gym, working out and doing drills and every sort of workout that Powell suggested.
"I started during the whole summer time to prepare for Junior Olympics," said Dirkse. "So, then Army recruited me because my numbers were a lot better and they brought me out to an official visit in September."
There was another D-I school who was aiming to land Dirkse, however, and that was the United States Air Force Academy.
The letters of recommendation by Powell, along with her reaching out to the coaches made a significant impact.
"Both were recruiting him. When you are an old retired sports star you have friends all over coaching," said Powell. "He was a diamond in the rough, did track out of curiosity, and the world didn't really know of Jake. But when I told coaches the type of athlete he is and he is a better person… they were intrigued."
Dirkse competed at the Junior Olympics at Sacramento State last July and qualified for the National Championships in discus after a throw of 159 feet, which put him in 11th place.
The Turlocker is set to report to boot camp in June before school starts.
"Working with Jake and helping him to compete and get to this level has been one of the most rewarding accomplishments in my career and it is really true," Powell added. "Jake has a special place in my heart and I will miss him when he goes to West Point."

How did Marvin Gaye Die?

Marvin Gaye was a renowned singer, songwriter, and record producer based in Los Angeles. He had several hits with his name including "Ain't that peculiar", "How Sweet It Is (to Be Loved by You)" and "I heard it through the Grapevine". Moreover, he is considered as one of the top artists who contributed to the success of Motown Records.
The tragic end to his life came on April 1, 1984, when he was shot dead by his father Marvin Gay Sr, just a day before his 45th birthday. The incident took place at his house in the West Adams district of Los Angeles when an argument took place between the father and son which quickly escalated into a physical one. Marvin's mother, Alberta Gay tried to calm down her son when suddenly Marvin Gay Sr took the revolver which Marvin Jr had given him as a gift and shot him three times in the chest.
Although the whole scenario seemed like a simple gunshot incident, there was a lot more revealed when the investigation was carried. Reports suggested that Marvin Gaye's father was an abusive and alcoholic individual and was a strict father from an early age. Marvin Sr also used to forcefully teach biblical passages to his children and used to beat them if they couldn't memorize.
After the gunshot incident, Marvin Sr was arrested on the charges of manslaughter and was given a six-year sentence and five years of probation. He later died in his California nursing home in 1988.

LaunchTags is a newly released site that's created a blog network with an ad revenue-sharing model for its contributors.
This service offers you mini-pages with which to create your blog. The idea is to become an authority on a given topic, and generate traffic to your mini-page as a resource to others. Revenue generated from ads on your mini-page are split between you and LaunchTags right down the middle. The blogging tools are pretty basic: enter a title, description, tags and text. There are "widgets" that allow you to insert hyperlinks, images, video, etc. into your blog entry. LaunchTags will help you out by suggesting the common ways in which blogs are promoted throughout the web, and also offering up some topics that you could write on.
The suggested topics list is continually updated, presumably based on what keywords are being searched frequently on the web. And while the ad revenue system has not gone live yet, you can still begin to build up some momentum by adding content to the site now. LaunchTags is very similar to HubPages, which will find the best color and formatting configuration for the placement of Google ads on your mini-page. There's no indication that LaunchTags will be as customizable and automated as this, but HubPages has seen a good amount of success from its rev-share model, and LaunchTags is looking to have a similar experience.

Amid Threats of Violence Venezuelan Opposition Tests Resolve
The streets of Caracas were packed Thursday with thousands protesting the Nicolas Maduro government, as Venezuela continues to be embroiled in an economic crisis that has included food shortages.

Jacob's Club Biscuit is one of my favorite childhood snack in Hong Kong. It is a chocolate covered biscuit. My favorite is the orange flavor one. A crunchy biscuit is covered with a thick layer of chocolate with a hint of orange. My love for the combination of chocolate and orange probably comes from here. It is not that easy to find these biscuits in the US. I haven't had these biscuits for a long time until two years ago. My mom brought me some from Hong Kong. They were too good, and I finished them in a week. This time, my sister brought me back some more. There is also a new flavor that I haven't tried before. It is the black currant flavor. It tasted like a chocolate covered raisin. I like it, but I still like the orange one a lot more. Hmmm…. They are so delicious. I think I am going to get and eat one now.
