Since inception in 2004 to the present, leaders of the Haitian-American Business Network (HABNET), have established a platform for business owners to refer each other and do business with each other; we coordinate mentorship for members; we assist business owners in finding needed resources; we conduct monthly business education and networking sessions as well as annual economic conferences; we harness a strong relationship between our member business owners and local elected officials.

So that was fast. I think I'm only 3 weeks away from the third trimester?! Is that even right?! Time is flying, and we have made zero preparations for this child, but being that it's our third girl, I could go into labor tomorrow and feel like we would be just fine. Although we did buy the 4Moms infant tub, and that was the most exciting moment of the past couple weeks.
We are still holding off on doing anything with our 4th bedroom because we are planning on listing the house this summer/fall so I have been throwing myself into organizing everything. I've had to order more label maker refills than I care to admit and I'm pretty sure the donation trucks are tired of coming to my house. But it feels so good.
I am really looking forward to my ultrasound in 3 weeks where they will hopefully tell me that my placenta previa has resolved itself and that I can be taken off of pelvic rest. Because the husband just joined a baseball league and the last thing I need is a hot husband in baseball pants while on pelvic rest. Knowwhatimsayin.

FIFTY YEARS AGO TODAY, there passed one of the greats of the 20th century. But Clive Staples Lewis' death went largely unnoticed, lost in the traumatic events of the day. Lewis was an apologist, novelist, popular writer, and essayist, beloved of Christians of all churches, denominations, and sects; but he was also an accomplished scholar.
Love and marriage are horribly confused, conflated, and misunderstood in our current age, which does not understand the forms and purposes of these things — or rather, our age doesn't seem to understand the form and purpose of anything. It was on the topics of love and marriage that C.S. Lewis gained his academic fame, in his book The Allegory of Love: A Study in Medieval Tradition, dating from 1936. It was this book that showed that the Medieval literature on love was worthy of serious academic study: and it remains the starting point of much of contemporary scholarship.
Marriage is a human institution, closely tied to the law and specific human circumstances — but it is rooted in human nature — while love is universal. How these two things interrelate is explored in great and even shocking depth in the Medieval literature. It is said that one flaw in Lewis' book is that he treats love as a literary phenomenon, and not as something real, which he later corrected in his more popular book The Four Loves. Another flaw in his book is his incorporation of modern literary theories, whose frameworks don't quite fit the data, and today we likewise have ideological — Marxist, Darwinist, Postmodernist, or Calvinist — readings of the literature which might explain one or another narrow aspect of love fairly well, while failing to consider the entire whole in a satisfactory manner.
Studying Medieval love literature can be hazardous: its allegorical method can be overlooked, its explicit depictions may be shocking, its unromantic portrayals of romantic love can be disturbing, and its essential Catholicity is rejected by contemporary conservatives and liberals alike. But Lewis was onto something: understanding love in all of its aspects is of great value to us today, and in every age.


Before we delve into their application in our game, let's very quickly explain what tokens are for those who may need a quick primer. Tokens are digital assets that are stored on the Ethereum blockchain. In the case of ERC-20 tokens such as RUSH Coin, these are fungible tokens. "Fungible" simply means that they are entirely interchangeable: you can exchange 1 ETH for any other 1 ETH and be no better or worse off, just like swapping any 1 dollar bill for another 1 dollar bill.
Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs), however, such as those using the ERC-721 token standard, have differing attributes and characteristics. A good analogy is that of a plane ticket. While plane tickets may have the same general size and shape, the name, seat number, scheduled flight information and so on not only differ, but are all vitally important: you certainly would not be in the same situation if you exchanged your ticket for any other.
In Hash Rush, NFTs are used to create a category of items known as Cards. These in-game items allow players to store and bring into play numerous types of game assets. They can range from units such as workers or soldiers to resource gathering boosts, through to custom skins, and beyond.
Hash Rush gives these Cards as rewards to players for completing quests, earning achievements, and for reaching certain levels in our Reward Pool challenges. Players may keep these cards in their inventory for later use or trade them to other players in return for cryptocurrency — which can in turn be used to purchase additional cards. We are also giving out special Cards to RUSH Coin token sale participants if you're interested in learning more you can do so on our sale page, along with joining the whitelisting.
Now, depending on what the application of the Card is, you can expect to find them in varying levels of rarity, ranging from thousands for common Cards to just a few for the more legendary items. For example, we have very common Cards that provide a small, temporary buff to the damage of your military units. We also have five single-use spells to wipe out all life on a planet's surface. The more powerful and unique a Card is, the rarer and more valuable.
We also have special Cards called 'blueprints' which let players craft their own ERC-721 compliant cards. So how would this be used? Well, one example is that there are cards which will allow you to instantly spawn units. But there are also blueprint cards for making an Ernack Swordsman Card… just combine the Blueprint, an actual Swordsman, and a few other crafting resources and BAM… you now have a new, ERC-721 compliant Ernack Swordsman Card to save, use, or sell.
So why are we so excited and driven to make all our Cards be NFTs? Simple: ownership. All our cards, from the most common buff to the most powerful spell are worth cryptocurrency, which in turn assigns them a real monetary value — allowing the player to profit from them. To ensure transparency on the scarcity and history of these cards it is vital that we tokenize our Cards. This allows players to see exactly how many of these Cards exist and also highlights the fact that it is one-of-a-kind. Each card is 100% owned by the player, and cannot be duplicated or stolen (provided players keep their private keys safe, of course!).
So how would you as a player be able to utilize these NFTs? Well, we've partnered with WAX and be able to offer trading on their WAX ExpressTrade platform along with being able to purchase through OPSkins.
Beyond using NFTs as a security feature and for rarity protection, they also open new gameplay possibilities. Imagine cards that track the history of their use, so that they have grand lineages. Imagine being able to see the kills, events participated in and other key statistics — the possibilities are endless. This also allows us to create uniquely branded items. For instance, imagine having a signed Hash Rush skin in your favourite first-person shooter, or being able to have a themed skin for one of your buildings (anyone for a Vitalik Buterin statue for their colony?).
The team is ultra-passionate about exploring and conquering this new frontier, and here's what a few of them they had to say.
The possibilities that NFT's present are very exciting for us. Not only does this mean we can assure total authenticity and fraud protection, but we can offer players virtual goods that have value outside of the game itself. And as far as in-game uses, we are already planning for the obvious — tokens that can be redeemed for game units, skins, titles, and resources; tokens that can be traded between players in our marketplace; and limited edition tokens that are rare and collectable. And once we get these established, there is a whole new realm of possible uses to explore; it is a very interesting time for us!
We will be distributing our own tokenized in-game items and allowing players to tokenize items themselves. As trading is one of the primary game pillars in Hash Rush, NFTs are going to be an important part of the gameplay. ERC-721s will allow players not only to get unique items, units and skins but also much more. As an example, we are planning blueprint cards which will allow players to craft and distribute entirely new NFTs.
The team is very excited by what this nascent technology will open up, not just for our game but for the industry in general. I'm particularly keen to see new ways of cross-game item use and cross-game customization options. Given how much in the NFT and blockchain gaming space is being driven by independent, passionate developers unencumbered by the restrictions of the large publishing houses, I'm expecting some great partnerships and innovative uses of NFTs as a result.
We are the cusp of a brand-new ocean of possibility and like those brave sea-faring captains of old, we are hoisting our sails and following the stars into the new world of blockchain.

Administrative History The Society's missions in India centred on Calcutta [I 1], Madras [I 2] and Bombay [I 3]. A Corresponding Committee was set up in Calcutta in 1807 and with the renewal of the East India Company's Charter in 1813 when missionaries were allowed into the country it took on the role of a CMS Auxiliary. The first CMS missionaries to North India did not reach Calcutta until 1816. In Madras a Corresponding Committee was formed in November 1814 and the missionaries arrived the following year. A Corresponding Committee for CMS work in Bombay was formed in June 1818, thought the first missionary did not arrive until 1820. Work in North India was controlled by the Calcutta Corresponding Committee until 1878 when the Punjab stations were joined to the work in Sind [which had been run from Bombay] to form the Punjab and Sind mission [I4]. In 1893 the North-West Provinces mission [I6] broke away from Punjab and Sind This in turn was split into the United Provinces mission [I7] from 1903 and the Central Provinces mission [I8] from 1904. Work in South India was run by the Madras Corresponding Committee until 1881 when Travancore and Cochin [ I5] was set up as an autonomous mission. In 1924 work in the Telegu area [I9] and Tinnevelly [I10] was separated from Madras and made two independent missions.

The Last Negroes at Harvard: The Class of 1963 and the 18 Young Men Who Changed Harvard Forever
by By: Kent Garrett, Jeanne Ellsworth
Buy eBook Now
iBooks/iTunes
The untold story of the Harvard class of '63, whose Black students fought to create their own identities on the cusp between integration and affirmative action.
In the fall of 1959, Harvard recruited an unprecedented eighteen "Negro" boys as an early form of affirmative action. Four years later they would graduate as African Americans. Some fifty years later, one of these trailblazing Harvard grads, Kent Garrett, would begin to reconnect with his classmates and explore their vastly different backgrounds, lives, and what their time at Harvard meant.
Garrett and his partner Jeanne Ellsworth recount how these eighteen youths broke new ground, with ramifications that extended far past the iconic Yard. By the time they were seniors, they would have demonstrated against national injustice and grappled with the racism of academia, had dinner with Malcolm X and fought alongside their African national classmates for the right to form a Black students' organization.
Part memoir, part group portrait, and part narrative history of the intersection between the civil rights movement and higher education, this is the remarkable story of brilliant, singular boys whose identities were changed at and by Harvard, and who, in turn, changed Harvard.
Kent Garrett
KENT GARRETT was born in the Fort Greene Projects in Brooklyn, New York. He excelled in the New York City Public Schools and went on to Harvard College in 1959. He was one of the producers of the ground-breaking public TV program Black Journal and went on to a long career with CBS and NBC News. In 1997, he left the rat race and became an organic dairy farmer in upstate New York.
Jeanne Ellsworth
JEANNE ELLSWORTH grew up in northwest New Jersey and taught elementary school there for ten years. After returning to school to get a doctorate, she was a teacher educator in the State University of New York system for over twenty years. Since 2007, she has lived in the Catskill Mountains with her partner, Kent Garrett.

The school admissions system is, apparently, now taking the blame for the lack of social mobility which is blighting opportunities and depriving the nation of much-needed talent.

The proportion of children with special needs being educated in mainstream schools has dropped markedly in the last ten years. This is one of the headline findings in Ofsted's annual report (released 1st December). Parents are voting with their feet on the great inclusion idea, removing their children from mainstreams..
Local authorities unjustly deny requested school places, assessments, or additional support to children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) in more than five out of six cases. That's the conclusion of a BBC analysis of Ministry of Justice data, which shows that councils currently lose 86% of cases that go to the SEND Tribunal.

Creating a Project Roadmap for Apps Built with Ruby on Rails
By Sam McDavid
Thanks to the popularity of apps built with Ruby on Rails, most software projects start by building authentication and authorization as the first feature. But there's compelling evidence that this approach is less effective, and there is a much better way.
Why Your Project Roadmap Shouldn't Begin with Login
More often than not, the first action a user will take when using your app is to log in or sign up. But just because that is the normal user flow doesn't mean that has to be the first feature your development team builds. For your application, login and sign-up are auxiliary features, meaning they do not add much value to users.
Users expect to login and sign up, of course, but those features are not the main value-add of your app. The reality is that apps built with Ruby on Rails can be built in layers. Even though the first action that a user takes will be to log in, the development team should focus on building the highest-value feature first.
Though it has been a while since I have worked with the Ruby programming language and the Ruby on Rails framework, they were both groundbreaking when they first emerged. Features that traditionally had been complex and complicated to build were made easy. For login and sign-up I could just add devise to my gemfile, run bundle install, and with very little configuration login and sign-up were done…
But not really.
The views that get generated don't have any styling. Each action has its own view which then needs to be refactored to fit the design. In most new applications, login and sign-up are done on the main landing page, so those will need to be updated to be displayed on the same page as well. Also, if the development team is building a single page application (SPA) with React, then even more customization will need to be done.
Still, all of this work needs to be done, so what's the big deal? Why does the order in which I do this necessary work matter?
The big deal is that this is all time spent on an auxiliary feature that does not add to the main value of the application. When doing your project planning, your development team should be focused on building in layers and prioritizing the main value-add features first.
A Better Way to Create a Product Roadmap
Let's look at the big picture.
Every software project has key stakeholders, and stakeholders want to see progress. They want to know that their ideas are feasible. They need to use the software to solve their problems.
The fact of the matter is that login and sign-up are problems that are already solved. They are necessary parts of the application that do not add value. They are features that users feel indifferent about but expect to exist.
Think about it this way. When your software project starts, that is when you have the most budget available to your team.
Therefore, while the development team has the most budget available, they should focus on building the features that provide the most value. Auxiliary features, while necessary, should be built at the end of the project, before it is launched to users so that sacrifices and tradeoffs are made on auxiliary features rather than on the main value-add features.
Additionally, by focusing on the main value features first, those key features truly become the center of your application. They work better because they were built first, have spent more time in testing, and are the springboard for all other features.
Apps Should Be Built in Layers
Once your most valuable features are built, you can focus on the auxiliary features that also need to be present. Login, sign-up, payments, account management, administration, dashboards, etc. all need to be present in the application, but they are not the reason users are buying or using the application. All of these features can be layered on top of the main value-add features, which will then improve the communication and functionality surrounding these features.
This approach fits very well with the Agile and Lean methodologies — both of which are practiced by Very's web development and IoT development team.
The Agile method prioritizes flexibility, speed, working with cross-functional teams, and continual improvement through iterative development. The Lean method, meanwhile, helps to focus goals and objectives throughout the development process. Lean is all about is figuring the optimum set of features to produce maximum ROI.
Creating an Effective Project Roadmap
Remember: login and sign-up are not blockers for your main value-add features. Features can be built and integrated into your application when they become absolutely necessary. The most important takeaway is that value-add features should be built first. That way, when the project is approaching the end of its budget, tradeoffs and sacrifices are made for auxiliary features rather than primary features.
The team at Very has a storied history of developing stunning projects using the Agile and Lean methods, focusing the bulk of our time on the features most critical to your product.

The synthesis of DNA from an RNA template, via reverse transcription, produces complementary DNA (cDNA). Reverse transcriptases (RTs) use an RNA template and a short primer complementary to the 3' end of the RNA to direct the synthesis of the first strand cDNA, which can be used directly as a template for the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). This combination of reverse transcription and PCR (RT-PCR) allows the detection of low abundance RNAs in a sample, and production of the corresponding cDNA, thereby facilitating the cloning of low copy genes. Alternatively, the first-strand cDNA can be made double-stranded using DNA Polymerase I and DNA Ligase. These reaction products can be used for direct cloning without amplification. In this case, RNase H activity, from either the RT or supplied exogenously, is required.
Many RTs are available from commercial suppliers. Avian Myeloblastosis Virus (AMV) Reverse Transcriptase and Moloney Murine Leukemia Virus (M-MuLV, MMLV) Reverse Transcriptase are RTs that are commonly used in molecular biology workflows. M-MuLV Reverse Transcriptase lacks 3´ → 5´ exonuclease activity. ProtoScript® II Reverse Transcriptase is a recombinant M-MuLV reverse transcriptase with reduced RNase H activity and increased thermostability. It can be used to synthesize first strand cDNA at higher temperatures than the wild-type M-MuLV. The enzyme is active up to 50°C, providing higher specificity, higher yield of cDNA and more full-length cDNA product, up to 12 kb in length.
The use of engineered RTs improves the efficiency of full-length product formation, ensuring the copying of the 5' end of the mRNA transcript is complete, and enabling the propagation and characterization of a faithful DNA copy of an RNA sequence. The use of the more thermostable RTs, where reactions are performed at higher temperatures, can be very helpful when dealing with RNA that contains high amounts of secondary structure.
For help comparing the RTs and cDNA Synthesis reagents available, view our RT/cDNA Synthesis selection chart.

Scotiabank Saddledome is a multi-use indoor arena in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Located in Stampede Park in the southeast end of downtown Calgary, the Saddledome was built in 1983 to replace the Stampede Corral as the home of the Calgary Flames of the National Hockey League, and to host ice hockey and figure skating at the 1988 Winter Olympics.

The facility also hosts concerts, conferences and other sporting championships, and events for the Calgary Exhibition and Stampede. It underwent a major renovation in 1994–95 and sold its naming rights, during which its original name of Olympic Saddledome was changed to Canadian Airlines Saddledome. The facility was given the name Pengrowth Saddledome in 2000, after Pengrowth Management Ltd. signed a ten-year agreement. It adopted its current name in October 2010 as Scotiabank signed on as title sponsor.

The Saddledome is owned by the City of Calgary, who leases it to the Saddledome Foundation, a non-profit organization, to oversee its operation. Since 1996, it has been managed by the Flames. The Saddledome was damaged during the 2013 Alberta floods in June and July that year, but was repaired and reopened in time for the 2013–14 NHL season.

The arena's roof is shaped like a horse saddle, thus earning the name "Saddledome".

Construction
Calgary had been served for 30 years by the Stampede Corral when the Calgary Flames arrived in 1980. With a total capacity of 8,700, the Corral was the largest arena in Canada west of Toronto in 1950, but had fallen below major league standards by the 1970s. The Corral was deemed insufficient for the National Hockey League (NHL) in 1977, leading the World Hockey Association's Calgary Cowboys to fold rather than hope to be a team selected to merge with the NHL.

Calgary's bid to host the 1988 Winter Olympics, coupled with the arrival of the Flames, drove the need to build a new arena.  City Council debated the merits of several locations for the city's new Olympic Coliseum, and narrowed their choices down to two areas in the Victoria Park neighbourhood on the east end of downtown. Two other sites, one on the west end of downtown, and a late bid by several businessmen pushing to build the arena in the northern suburb of Airdrie were also considered.

The Victoria Park Community Association fought the bid to build the arena in their neighborhood, threatening to oppose the city's Olympic bid if necessary.  City Council voted on March 3, 1981, to build the proposed 20,000 seat arena on the Stampede grounds, immediately east of the Corral and south of Victoria Park. The community continued to fight the city over rezoning the land to allow for the new arena amidst fears of traffic congestion in their neighbourhood which resulted in numerous costly delays to the start of construction. In a bid to end the battle, Mayor Ralph Klein asked the provincial government in July 1981 to take over the land designated for the arena to bypass the appeals process and force approval. The province supported the city amidst protests by community associations and invoked rarely used powers to overrule planning regulations, allowing construction to begin. The following day, on July 29, 1981, builders began construction of the arena. The International Olympic Committee was impressed that the project was underway, as noted in the XV Olympic Winter Games official report which stated "The fact that this facility was already being built added credibility to (Calgary's) bid and proved to be a positive factor in demonstrating Calgary's commitment to hosting the Games".

The facility was designed by Graham McCourt Architects.  While they set out to design a unique building, the idea of a western theme never occurred to Barry Graham or his team.  The roof of the building was designed to be a reverse hyperbolic paraboloid, allowing for a pillar free view from all seats and reducing the interior volume by up to one-third when compared to traditional arenas, resulting in reduced heating, lighting and maintenance costs, plus the floating roof can flex to compensate for the city's frequent temperature fluctuations.  When the design was unveiled, the roof was immediately referred to as being saddle-shaped.  Of 1,270 entries submitted in a contest to name the arena, 735 involved the word Saddle.  The winning name in the contest, Olympic Saddledome, was drawn from a hat filled with several similar saddle-themed names. At the time the name received a tepid reception from some, including the chairman of Calgary's Olympic Organizing Committee (OCO), Frank King, who was quoted as saying "It is neither Olympic nor western, and it's not even dome".

The designers won several architectural and engineering awards for their work on the Saddledome, and were honoured by the Royal Architectural Institute of Canada at its millennium celebration of architecture in 2000. As of 2008, the Saddledome was still reported as the world record holder for the longest spanning hyperbolic paraboloid concrete shell. The Saddledome was featured on the cover of Time magazine on September 27, 1987, for an article discussing the city of Calgary and the upcoming 1988 Olympics.

The location of the Saddledome within Stampede Park allows for easy access to Calgary's CTrain light rail transit system via the Victoria Park/Stampede station that stands parallel to Macleod Trail. Direct vehicle access is gained from the north via 5th Street East or Olympic Way.

History

The arena was initially projected to cost $60 million to build, and later revised to over $80 million. Attempts to fast track construction resulted in a $16 million cost overrun, resulting in a final cost of $97.7 million and an eight-month delay in its completion.  Builders faced delays while building the roof as numerous adjustments were required to fit the giant concrete slabs between the array of cables that held them in place. Upset with the excess cost, opposition politicians in Alberta demanded a public hearing into the issue.  A hearing conducted by the city placed much of the blame on the project manager, while the city and province were required to pay the additional costs.

When it opened on October 15, 1983, the Olympic Saddledome served to boost the morale of a city that was experiencing a significant downturn as a result of the international oil market collapse, high interest rates, and the federal government's National Energy Program.  During the first event, an NHL game between the Flames and the Edmonton Oilers, the standard of Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau was the first thing booed by a population upset with the government's policies. The Oilers defeated the Flames 4–3 in front of a sold out crowd of nearly 17,000 fans.

The initial seating capacity was 16,605 for hockey as the upper loges were not immediately completed.  As the Olympics neared, the Calgary organizing committee spent $1 million to add over 2,600 seats to the upper loges in a bid to alleviate a scandal that resulted from the organizing committee giving its partners and sponsors preferential treatment in ticket sales. With a capacity of 20,016, the International Ice Hockey Federation noted that it was the largest arena ever used at the Winter Games, and called the facility "the finest international rink in the world" The International Olympic Committee praised the city's commitment to hosting the Olympics, noting in its official report that constructing the arena prior to being awarded the Games lent credibility to Calgary's bid and positively influenced voters.  The Saddledome was the first arena in North America designed to accommodate the larger international ice surface (international rinks are  wider than NHL rinks). The Saddledome reached its highest capacity in the early '90s at 20,230.

The Flames petitioned the City of Calgary and the Saddledome Foundation to upgrade the facility in 1994, requesting renovations to add additional luxury boxes and a new club section.  The Flames insisted the upgrades were necessary for the team to remain viable in the arena. They argued it was important that their landlord bring the arena up to the higher standards they felt was required.  The team lobbied City Council in the hope it would agree to fund the majority of the $18 million renovation using federal infrastructure funds. At the same time, they rejected a counter proposal for applying a ticket surcharge to pay the cost. Media reports claimed the team was considering relocating out of Calgary if council did not agree. Flames' owners denied the reports, but said they had threatened to build a new rink elsewhere in the city. City Council supported the Flames' proposal in a 9–6 vote following several months of negotiations.

Renovations occurred between 1994 and 1995 and saw the addition of 41 new luxury suites at the top of the lower bowl, an 1,172 seat club section, a new restaurant, expanded offices for the Flames, Saddledome management and Hockey Canada, as well as a significant restructuring of the public concourse and a new parkade structure.  The arena remained operational until the spring of 1995 despite ongoing construction, but was closed entirely between April and October 1995. The Saddledome officially reopened on October 25, 1995, for the Flames' first home game of the 1995–96 NHL season.

Prior to its reopening, the Flames signed a deal with Canadian Airlines to rename the facility.  Under a 20-year agreement worth approximately $1 million per year, the arena became the Canadian Airlines Saddledome. Removing the "Olympic" moniker was controversial with both the public and City Council, though the city voted in favour of the deal which included the donation of a portion of the naming rights to fund amateur sports within the city. The arena was renamed again in 2000 when Canadian Airlines was acquired by Air Canada and ceased operations. Pengrowth Management Ltd. signed a 10-year agreement that gave the facility the name Pengrowth Saddledome.

The arena has received cosmetic upgrades in recent years. In 2004, the Flames spent $1 million on a LED "power ring" display that lines the facing of the second level. The JumboTron that was installed in 1995 was replaced in 2006 with a new HD video scoreboard.  Along with the new board, the previous speakers were replaced with Apogee ALA-9 arrays in 2007. Manufactured by Daktronics, the display has 12 screens and two LED ribbons, and was called the Enmax Energy Board.

2013 flood

The Saddledome was one of many buildings impacted by the 2013 Alberta floods. The flooding of the Elbow and Bow Rivers swamped many areas of the city, including Stampede Park where the Saddledome is located. The event level of the arena was filled with water, also wrecking the high definition scoreboard that had been sitting on the rink floor during the summer downtime, while the dressing rooms and control room for the video replay screen were swamped. At a press conference held on June 22, 2013, team president Ken King stated that the arena had flooded up to the eighth row and that the event level of the facility was a "total loss". He added that the team's equipment and some memorabilia had also been destroyed, but expressed confidence that the facility would be repaired and ready in time for the October start to the 2013–14 Calgary Flames season. Repairs to the facility forced the cancellation of all concerts and agricultural events scheduled for the 2013 Calgary Stampede.

Crews worked around the clock to repair the facility; Saddledome director of building operations Robert Blanchard estimated that 650,000 man hours of work was performed on the facility and noted that they had compressed a six-month project into two. The facility was granted its occupancy permit in late August, and the first event following the Saddledome's reopening was an Eagles concert on September 11. The first hockey game was September 14, a Flames pre-season contest.

Events

As the home of the Flames, the Saddledome hosted the 1985 NHL All-Star Game, and the 2000 NHL Entry Draft. The Flames have played three Stanley Cup Finals series in the Saddledome: 1986, 1989 and 2004. The arena is also the home of the Calgary Hitmen of the Western Hockey League (WHL). The Hitmen won the President's Cup in 1999 before a WHL playoff record crowd of 17,139. Playing in the largest arena in the WHL, the Hitmen also hold league records for overall attendance (362,227 in 2004–05), as well as single game (19,305 in 2007–08). The Saddledome is also the home of the Calgary Roughnecks of the National Lacrosse League (NLL) and hosted the 2005 NLL All-Star Game. It has hosted the NLL Champion's Cup game four times: 2004, 2009, 2014 and 2019. The Roughnecks would raise the Cup on their home floor in all of these games except 2014. The stadium was one of the venues for the 2012 World Junior Ice Hockey Championships.

The opening of the Saddledome allowed Calgary to host major musical acts that were bypassing the city in the early 1980s, because the city's existing facilities were not large enough to accommodate the industry's top performers.

The Moody Blues were the first musical act to appear with Stevie Ray Vaughan opening, in November 1983, while Rod Stewart has made the most appearances in the Dome, 11. Many other top acts have made stops in the Saddledome, however the inability of the roof to support the massive light, speaker and special effect rigs that some performers currently use has led the city to again be bypassed for some major tours.

In addition to hockey and figure skating at the 1988 Olympics, the Saddledome has been the site of numerous major national and international events. The facility has hosted Brier, the Canadian men's curling championship, on four occasions (1997, 2002, 2009 and 2015). It also hosted the women's championship, the Tournament of Hearts in 1995. The 2006 World Figure Skating Championships was also held in the arena. The WWF pay-per-view event In Your House 16: Canadian Stampede was also held at the Saddledome in July 1997. Among non-sporting events, the Saddledome most recently hosted a public address by the Dalai Lama in 2009 that was attended by 15,000 people. In 2005, Queen Elizabeth II attended a celebration of Alberta's centennial at the Saddledome.

It has also hosted PBR Bud Light Cup events; in 1998 and 1999 the event was known as "Cody Snyder's Bullbustin'", and in 2000 and 2001 the event was called the Professional Bull Riders Canadian Open. The Saddledome has also been a host for PBR Canada events.

On October 3, 2016, the Saddledome hosted a National Basketball Association preseason game between the Toronto Raptors and Denver Nuggets.

On July 21, 2012, the Saddledome hosted an Ultimate Fighting Championship event, which was UFC 149. Six years later, on July 28, 2018, the Saddledome hosted another UFC event, which was UFC on Fox: Alvarez vs. Poirier 2.

The arena was also the site of the 1990 Liberal Party leadership convention.

Amenities
The Saddledome seats 19,289 for hockey and lacrosse, with different capacities for other events depending on the arena's configuration. It has 72 luxury suites, 41 of which were constructed at the top of the lower bowl in 1995 and 31 were constructed at the top of the second level when the facility was built. There are also six party suites on the corners of the upper loges that are rented on an event by event basis.  Sections 115 through 122 of the lower bowl form The Club and offers in-seat concession service at Flames games. This was later expanded to the remainder of the lower bowl during Flames, Hitmen and Roughnecks games via the Saddledome Live app.

The Club features a private dining room available during Flames games, large concerts and private events. Dutton's Canadian Lounge is a sports bar located at the west entrance to the building.  There are three additional restaurants within the facility: The Saddleroom Grill, the Alumni Lounge and the King Club.  The Iconic Platinum Club is a 188-seat executive club accessible with a purchased membership. It features a private bar and restaurant as well as a fully functional business centre.

Saddledome Foundation
The City of Calgary established the Saddledome Foundation in 1983 and leased the arena for 50-years to the non-profit organization.  Its mandate was to "oversee the operation in a manner that protects taxpayers and benefits amateur sports at the local, provincial and national level". The foundation is made up of a board of nine directors: three appointed by the city, three appointed by the province, and one each appointed by the Calgary Olympic Development Association (now WinSport Canada), Hockey Canada and the Calgary Exhibition and Stampede. The foundation contracted the Stampede to manage the arena, and through its lease agreements with the Stampede and the Flames, earned 15% of gross concession sales, 50% of net income from luxury suites and executive seating and investment income on the arena's revenues.  The Flames signed a 20-year lease in 1983 that earned them 70% of advertising revenues and 90% of ticket revenues.  The Stampede earned 85% of concession revenues and all revenue from parking.

As part of the 1994 deal with the city, the Flames bought out the Stampede's contract for $20 million and took over management of the facility. While the city and Saddledome Foundation paid for the 1994–95 renovations, the new agreement required the Flames to pay for future arena maintenance and repairs, as well as any further renovations.  The Flames agreed to manage the arena for 20 years and to contribute $14.5 million toward amateur sport in the city over that time. The Saddledome Foundation retains the responsibility of distributing funds to amateur sport. From its inception through 2007, it had allocated over $20 million toward this cause.

Future

The Saddledome is one of the oldest arenas in the NHL and the oldest among the seven Canadian franchises, fuelling speculation that it is due to be replaced. Only Madison Square Garden in New York City and Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle are older than the Saddledome; however, both arenas underwent substantial interior renovations in the 2010s, both of which effectively resulted in a new arena being built within an existing superstructure. Flames president and chief executive officer Ken King said in 2008 that plans for a new arena were "five to eight years away" creating the expectation that the team hoped to have a new arena built for when their lease was due to expire in 2014, but such plans never came to fruition.  Team chairman Murray Edwards argues that the ability of the facility to host major events and concerts is growing increasingly limited as the facility ages.  Along with Edwards, sports financial analysts note that newer arenas generate far more revenue for their teams than the Saddledome does for the Flames.

It is expected that any new arena would also be located either on the Stampede Grounds or elsewhere in downtown Calgary. While NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman has lobbied on behalf of both the Flames and the Oilers for government support, Calgary mayor Naheed Nenshi and alderman John Mar have stated their opposition using taxpayer money to help fund a new arena. King stated that the Flames have concepts and designs for a new building, but are not ready to release them.  Some of the plans being considered for Stampede Park would include lowering the city's C-train light rail transit line below ground and run straight into a new facility.

In 2015, Calgary Sports and Entertainment proposed CalgaryNEXT—a sports complex in the western downtown area that would feature a new arena and football stadium to replace the Saddledome and McMahon Stadium. The proposal was shot down in 2017 by Calgary's city council, who voted to support a "plan B" of a new arena on a site adjacent to the existing Saddledome, which is currently used as a parking lot for the Stampede grounds.

On September 12, 2017, King stated that the team was no longer pursuing the arena, as "we've been working for a long time trying to come up with a formula that really works to replace this building and we really put our best foot forward and I've come to the conclusion sadly and I'm very disappointed that I don't think we can make a deal that works for us". Mayor Nenshi subsequently proposed a partnership wherein portions of the cost of "plan B" would be covered by the city, and the rest covered by the team ownership and user surcharges. King objected to this proposal.

Critics alleged that the Flames had been trying to use the issue of a new arena to influence the 2017 municipal elections, where Nenshi was elected for a third term as mayor of Calgary. King denied that this was the case, stating that "we did not raise this as an election issue: it became an election issue".

On July 30, 2019, Calgary city council had approved a $550 million Event Centre to replace the Saddledome. The new Event Centre would have been located to the north of the Saddledome in the Victoria Park neighbourhood. The city of Calgary would own the arena while Calgary Sports and Entertainment Corporation would be responsible for the facility's operation and maintenance under a 35-year, no-relocation lease agreement. The new arena had a planned capacity of around 19,000; plans for the Event Centre also included the possibility for a smaller arena to replace the now-demolished Stampede Corral. The Saddledome would have been subsequently demolished had the proposed Event Centre been built.

On April 14, 2021, the deal for the new arena was put on hold by Calgary city council over budget concerns.

On July 26, 2021, the city announced the cost of the arena had gone from $550 million to $608.5 million. The arena was planned on an inverted bowl design which may not have worked on that particular piece of land and would've been bad for accessibility. As the engineers got further into design work, they realized there are some other things, there weren't enough women's bathrooms as well as there may be too many luxury boxes and not enough seats for regular people. To address cost overruns, both the City of Calgary and Calgary Sports and Entertainment Corporation would each be putting forward an additional $12.5 million. The clause was part of the original deal signed in 2019 and has already been approved by council. The Calgary Sports and Entertainment Corporation has agreed to cover anymore cost overruns.

On December 22, 2021, Calgary Sports and Entertainment pulled out of the deal, citing disagreements in significant infrastructure costs ($15 million) and climate mitigation costs ($4 million); costs not previously identified as project costs by CMLC or the City nor included in the $608.5 million target budget in July 2021. Despite this, CSEC intends on staying in the Saddledome.

Then we went on the bobsled ride. We had to take the ski lift to the top of the mountain. It really was beautiful, though I didn't look down too much! :) The ride down on the sled was fun. We each had our own and could control the speed.
The last ride we went on was the funniest for all of us, it was the rollercoaster ride.
Each person has their own "car" that they can regulate the speed on, and down you go! Brian and Giovanni went together, and then the rest of us had our own. I'm not much of a rollercoaster person, but the next time we go, I'll go a little faster. It really was fun!!!
That's what life is all about, having fun with the family and making memories!
Looks like fun! I can't believe they went down the zip ride--my hands get sweaty just thinking about it!

Prophet Joshua Iginla acquires Multi-Million dollar acres of Land in South Africa + Set to build 100,000 seater city of wonders
The Editor Thursday, May 30, 2019 METRO,
''Why I gave to the widows on my birthday'
The General Overseer of Champions Royal Assembly, Prophet Joshua Iginla has acquired acres of Land worth Millions of dollars In a choice location at South Africa to build a 100-000 capacity building for another city of wonders, a better replica of the 80,000 capacity city of wonders he built in Abuja.
He revealed this information during his birthday celebration on Sunday, 26th Of May, 2019 at his Abuja Church.
The Prophet who just acquired a multi-billion naira Private Jet revealed that there is need to have a building of such capacity due to the massive growth of the church in South Africa and for the convenience of every member of the church.
It would be recalled that in 2015, when Prophet Joshua Iginla built the 80,000 capacity city of wonders in Abuja, he made it known that the building can be likened to a primary school of his ministry and that God is leading him to build more and true to his word, Progress has indeed happened.
'' I got the revelation about the City of Wonders in 1996. The whole building as it is now is just 13 months. A lot of people asked if it is indeed a 80,000 seater and I can tell them that indeed it is but you can't describe it until you visit the place. Let me shock you more. This is not the promised land God is taking me too. The City of Wonder is just my primary school in the journey of my ministry''
Furthermore, during the birthday celebration, apart from unveiling his Private Jet, Prophet Joshua Iginla, like he has always done, gave out millions of Naira to widows and the needy. He also gave out landed properties to several widows and pastors with a promise of building structures on it.
According to checks, he dashed out N150,000 each to 142 widows which amounts to 21Million Naira and also gave them a bag of rice each.
It has begin to wonder a lot of people on why Prophet Joshua Iginla keeps on rolling out millions for the widows often? However, he has made it known that he would have lost his life some years back if not for the widows.
''I would have passed to the world beyond but I heard a voice that told me that I will not die because the prayers of widows have saved me. l resolved from that day to be a blessing to widows during my birthdays"
Prophet Joshua Iginla is widely known for his massive philanthropic activities, his accurate Prophecies and his apt teachings.

Don Mattingly and Ryne Sandberg both became first-time All-Stars in 1984, playing on opposite teams that July at Candlestick Park. It began a five-year run in which each popular infielder was in the Midsummer Classic, including a classic 13-inning, 2-0 win by the NL in 1987 in Oakland, where both players started and batted second in their respective lineups. Those were their only meetings back in the day, because Mattingly and the Yankees trained in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., each spring while Sandberg and the Cubs headed for Mesa, Ariz., and there was neither Interleague Play nor a World Series for either man as an active player.
Don Mattingly in July 1991 at Anaheim.
So here we are now, 23 days away from the Major League Baseball Opening Series on March 22 in Sydney, Australia, and we are going to bring both icons together in our own way. It makes sense for a few reasons. One, they are both now active MLB managers, Mattingly about to manage the Dodgers in that historic Sydney series against the D-backs, and Sandberg in his first spring as Phillies skipper after taking over for Charlie Manuel in the last 42 games (20-22) last season. They will manage against each other for the first time on April 21-24 at Dodger Stadium, neither with the club for whom he was famous as a player. Secondly, they were Opening Day fixtures, autograph-friendly and highly welcomed representations of a new beginning for Yankee and Cub fans when they took the field or appeared in box scores.
And for a third reason, and maybe most importantly, they would be together right now in the Hall of Fame if there were poetic justice. Sandberg got there matter-of-factly in 2005, and oh if Mattingly could only have given his speech right before his or right afterwards. Ryno's run of consecutive All-Star Games lasted 10 years, double that of Donnie Baseball, whose time as a player was unfortunately cut short by back troubles. They were both Most Valuable Players of their leagues and they both won nine Gold Gloves, providing pop on the other side. They were basically one-club guys the whole way. The sad truth is that for Mattingly, it was just too short a run by the average Hall voter's standards. But do they belong together in some kind of baseball immortality, if you were a fan of that era? The question is definitely yes.
Ryne Sandberg in 1997 at Dodger Stadium.
So we're doing our part here today, as we watch them prepare their NL clubs now, perhaps even to meet this October in a meaningful series. (And yes, they share a league with another No. 23 star-turned-manager, Arizona's Kirk Gibson, making it almost a fraternity all their own.) For some perspective on just how much Mattingly and Sandberg meant to a generation of fans, long before they were managers, I thought I would ask my MLB.com colleague Gregg Klayman. Now our VP of Product Development here, Klayman is the guy who came up with such fan-favorite ideas as the annual All-Star Final Vote and MLB.com Beat the Streak. He grew up with both stars in a sense, his passion for the No. 23 only slightly divided.
"I love the fact that they're both representing No. 23 in this countdown," Klayman said. "When I was 12 years old and playing Strat-O-Matic baseball pretty much every single day of my life, they won co-MVPs of my league. They were both on my team that season. The problem was, they both wore 23, and we wrote their uniform numbers on the top of their cards, so one of them had to get 23. Since I was from New York, Mattingly got preference, got to wear 23, and I made Sandberg 19. I'm not really sure why I made him 19, but it was the closest number. I think Mike Schmidt had 20, Dwight Evans had 24, a lot of the numbers near there were taken. So I ended up giving him 19.
Who should be No. 22?

Attack on Titan Voice Actor Yuuki Kaji Will Give You Beauty Advice via Smart Mirror
posted on 2018-10-05 14:45 EDT by Kim Morrissy
Ever wished your mirror could actually tell you how you look and what to do to look better? How about taking it one step further - do you want to look in the mirror and have Yuuki Kaji give you beauty advice? This will become reality as soon as next year, when the Smart Mirror "novera" hits the market.
A Smart Mirror resembles a regular mirror but is equipped with an electronic display, a voice controlled interface, and other technological features. The novera Smart Mirror will be equipped with sensors that can perceive the state of your skin. Based on how it reads your skin, it can offer roughly 100 choices of makeup, prescribed by professional makeup artists.
Voice actor Yuuki Kaji is the first name revealed to be involved in the novera Smart Mirror project. He plays a fastidious and standoffish spacial designer named Yuki Takano. novera Inc. has unveiled a key visual for the character:
Kaji shared his thoughts on the character in an interview posted on novera's YouTube channel: "When I first heard about the offer, I thought, 'So we're finally in the age where mirrors can talk to you.' Talking mirrors sound like a thing from old-time fairy tales, but the talking mirror of today can fulfill its role as a regular mirror while also responding to our words and expressions. I think that's wonderful.
"My character is a bit of a tsundere and kind of secretive. It's a bit like a game in that sense. I hope that people will be able to enjoy talking to their mirror every day."
To celebrate 1,000 retweets on their Twitter campaign, novera inc. posted a short voice sample of Kaji's voice as Yuki Takano.
Kaji is best known for his roles as Eren in Attack on Titan, Meliodas in The Seven Deadly Sins, and Todoroki in My Hero Academia. He won the Best Rookie Actor Award in the 3rd Seiyu Awards in 2009 and won the Best Voice Actor Award two years consecutively in the 7th and 8th Seiyu Awards in 2013 and 2014.
The novera Smart Mirror will go on sale in 2019. Pre-orders for the Smart Mirror will be available "soon." novera inc. will announce more of the participating voice actors in the lead up to the Smart Mirror's release.

Q: Powershell script for checking password criteria I'm working on a script that creates local accounts, offering users the chance to enter a password twice, which will then be scrutinised against criteria similar to network accounts.
I've put together the script below, which can almost do this. It seems to be capable of some of the criteria I'm trying to plug in.
What I'm looking for is to compare the first and confirmation entry and to check what they have entered against the following combinations, reject them if they don't meet the criteria and accept them if they do:
At least 1 x capital letter, at least 1 x special character, at least 1 x number, at least 8 characters - e.g. "Monkeypuzzle1!"
At least 1 x special character, at least 1 x number, at least 8 characters - e.g. "monkeypuzzle1!"
At least 1 x capital letter, 1 x lowercase letter, at least 1 x special character, at least 8 characters - e.g. "Monkeypuzzle!"
At least 1 x capital letter, 1 x lowercase letter, at least 1 x number, at least 8 characters - "Monkeypuzzle1"
What I have so far successfully compares the first entry and the confirm entry and seems to be capable of scrutinising the 1 x cap, 1 x lowercase, 1 x special, 1 x number, 8 characters criteria and the 1 x cap, 1x lowercase, 1 x number, 8 characters criteria, but not the other two. I've tried several methods and so far I just can't crack it.
while($true)
{
        try
        {
            # Loop until a valid password is entered.

            $Entered_Password_01 = Read-Host "Enter a password: "-AsSecureString
            $Entered_Password_01_text = [Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal]::PtrToStringAuto([Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal]::SecureStringToBSTR($Entered_Password_01))
            Write-Host ""
            $Pass_criteria_01 = (-not(($Entered_Password_01_text -cmatch '[a-z]') -and ($Entered_Password_01_text.length -ge 7) -and ($Entered_Password_01_text -cmatch '[A-Z]') -and ($Entered_Password_01_text -match '\d')))

            $Pass_criteria_03 = (-not(($Entered_Password_01_text -cmatch '[a-z]') -and ($Entered_Password_01_text.length -ge 7) -and ($Entered_Password_01_text -cmatch '[A-Z]') -and ($Entered_Password_01_text -match '!|@|#|%|^|&|$')))

            if (        $Pass_criteria_01 -or
                        $Pass_criteria_02 -or
                        $Pass_criteria_03 -or
                        $Pass_criteria_04)
            {throw}
            $Entered_Password_02 = Read-Host "Confirm password: "-AsSecureString
            $Entered_Password_02_text = [Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal]::PtrToStringAuto([Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal]::SecureStringToBSTR($Entered_Password_02))
            Write-Host ""
            if ($Entered_Password_01_text -ceq $Entered_Password_02_text) {Write-host "successful test"}
            Else
            {throw}
            break
        }
        catch
        {
            Write-Host ""
            Write-Host "Invalid Password." -ForegroundColor Red
        }
}

I'm basically trying to tell it to sequentially check it against 4 sets of criteria, snag it if it doesn't measure up and let it through if it does.
If anyone has any suggestions on how to achieve this please let me know.
Cheers.
Expansion on mklement0's answer, seems to do the job, seems to have passed all the tests I can think of at the moment, had to modify my method of looking for special characters by looking for characters that aren't uppercase, lowercase or numbers. But that count idea was golden!
$Entered_Password_01_text = 'Monkeypuzzle1!' # Experiment with different values here.
$Special_Chars = "[^a-zA-Z0-9]" #check for special characters, by looking for not regular characters or numbers.
