Armando Gerardo Antille (24 de septiembre de 1883, Helvecia-17 de septiembre de 1954, Buenos Aires) fue un abogado y político argentino, que militó sucesivamente en la Unión Cívica Radical, Unión Cívica Radical Junta Renovadora y Partido Peronista que se desempeñó como senador nacional por la provincia de Santa Fe.

Biografía
Realizó sus estudios secundarios en la Compañía de Jesús (1897-1901), y sus estudios universitarios en la Universidad Provincial de Santa Fe.

Fue un destacado dirigente de la Unión Cívica Radical, yrigoyenista, desempeñándose como ministro de Gobierno, Justicia y Culto de Santa Fe (1920-1924) durante la gobernación de Enrique Mosca, diputado nacional (1924-1928) y senador nacional (1928-1930).

Fue el abogado de Hipólito Yrigoyen en el juicio al que lo sometió la dictadura militar dirigida por José Félix Uriburu que lo derrocó. En 1935 fundó la revista yrigoyenista Hechos e Ideas, junto a otros radicales como Julio Barcos, Elías Melópulous, Francisco Albarracín, Bernardino Horne y Federico Fernández de Monjardín.

En 1945, durante la dictadura militar surgida del golpe de Estado de 1943 se desempeñó como ministro de Hacienda entre los meses de agosto y octubre, bajo la presidencia de Edelmiro Julián Farrell. Durante la jornada del 17 de octubre de 1945 desempeñó un papel relevante como delegado personal de Perón ante Farrell.

Junto con Hortensio Quijano, Juan Isaac Cooke, Eduardo Colom y otros dirigentes se separó de la Unión Cívica Radical para fundar la Unión Cívica Radical Junta Renovadora que, en unión de otros partidos, llevó la candidatura presidencial de Juan Domingo Perón en las elecciones de 1946.

Entre 1946 y 1952 fue senador nacional por la provincia de Santa Fe y se incorporó al Partido Peronista al ser creado el mismo.

It makes a lot of sense for the brand to release a 'Black Cat' Air Jordan 13 as the model takes inspiration from the Black Panther, which Michael Jordan resembled when on the court. The outsole on the Air Jordan 13 takes inspiration from a Panthers paw while the hologram that is used by the collar represents the animals eyes. Now this model will truly be fitting has it's dipped in all Black which resembles the cats fur.
This pair will feature a Black takeover while 3M reflective material is used on the mesh and laces. Other highlights include Black suede on the base while a Black Cat graphic lands on the insoles.

Q: How to update the value pointed to by a pointer to NULL in c I have a Linked list and head pointer is the pointer to the head of the list.
struct ListNode *head;

If I introduce another slow pointer here like this,
struct ListNode *slow = head;

If I move the slow pointer as slow = slow->next so that it points to some other node in the list and if I want to update this node pointed by the slow pointer to NULL, I could do
slow = NULL.
But this does not update the original list and if I want to make changes to the original list I would need to update this  *slow instead of just the pointer slow.
I tried something like this
*slow = *((struct ListNode*)0);

But that does not work. How do make this change ?

The Buddha In Various Iconographic Forms
There can be enormous variation between representations of Buddha. In part, this is because while people are most familiar with the historical Gautama Buddha, the various branches of Buddhism believe in the existence of a number of other Buddhas as well. On top of this, it should be mentioned that these branches of Buddhism have come up with a wide range of meanings for each aspect of Buddha statues as well as other representations of Buddha, which possess important meaning but can be very confusing for the unfamiliar. Due to this, those who are interested in learning more about Buddha necklace meaning, Buddha pendant meaning, and other examples of Buddhist jewelry meaning would do well to look up more information on the topic.
What are some examples of the differences between various Buddha representations?
For starters, it is important to note that some of what people call Buddha art isn't actually Buddha art.
Female form of Buddha
One excellent example would be representations of Guanyin, a Chinese interpretation of Avalokiteśvara who is venerated in a wide range of countries. In short, Guanyin isn't a Buddha but rather a Bodhisattva, which is a term with multiple meanings. In some branches, a Bodhisattva is someone that a living Buddha has stated will succeed in their intent to become a Buddha. Meanwhile, other branches see a Bodhisattva as someone who is seeking to achieve Buddhahood for not just themselves but also all other living beings. Whatever the case, Guanyin is very popular because of her sense of mercy, which is why she has numerous representations of her own. One of the most spectacular would be the so-called Lady Buddha statue situated outside of Da Nang, Vietnam, which is of spectacular size.
representation of Female Buddha
Sometimes, distinguishing between Buddhas can be pretty simple, with an excellent example being how Tara is sometimes regarded as being a female Buddha.
Characteristics of Buddha. Five Dhyani Buddhas
There are numerous Buddhas with their own particular signs and symbols. For example, Gautama Buddha is the historical Buddha who started up Buddhism. In contrast Maitreya is a Bodhisattva who is expected to become a Buddha at some point in the far distant future when people have forgotten about the Dharma. Moreover, there are figures such as the Five Tathagatas of Vajrayana Buddhism, who are representations of five characteristics of the First Buddha.
Posture, dress, hand gestures
Representations of various Buddhas share a lot of stances, gestures, and other symbolic elements, meaning that figuring out which is which can be something of an art in its own right. Something that is particularly true because Buddha statues, Buddha art painting, and other Buddha representations have continued to change over time, meaning that these differences aren't just true from Buddha to Buddha but also from place to place as well as time to time.
The Nirvana Buddha / Reclining Buddha This statue depicts the Historical Buddha in the last moments of life on earth
To get an idea of the complexities, consider the case of Gautama Buddha. In a lot of cases, his representations are clothed with simple robes, which are a powerful reminder of how he forsook a life of power as a prince to search for enlightenment. However, there are examples of representations of Gautama Buddha in more regal costume, which is rarer but nonetheless something that exists to show his importance as well as the respect that is being paid towards him. Moving on, even something as simple as Gautama Buddha's positioning can be a matter of huge importance. For example, when he is reclining, that tends to be a representation of his final enlightenment before his passing. Likewise, some of the hand gestures called mudra are much more associated with Gautama Buddha than others, with examples ranging from touching the Earth to the meditation mudra that is common in seated representations.
Summed up, interpreting the meaning of Buddha statues and other Buddha representations can be frustrating but nonetheless very interesting. Some Buddha representations such as those of the Five Tathagatas have very strict rules about their colors, their positions, and their other symbols. Others are much more varied, thus providing interested individuals with plenty of opportunities to learn as well as to explore.

Does anyone know of any dirt cheap apartments in California that arent completely surrounded by gang memebers?
Hard question…But there are affordable housing units in the city of Santa Monica. But you might have to be like a single mom or totally broke to qualify. But see about it. Theres one that is LEED certified, means very environmentally friendly. Its right by the promenade. Go check it out. I asked my office mate here and he couldnt think of any. He had a friend who lived in a duplex in Pismo Beach real cheap though. Its like 2 hours from LA, but your by the beach, its cheaper and no gangs. You ahve to work your way to the beach. Start in the hot smokey valley then move on up.
BUT….try roomates.com. Look for people renting out rooms in their house. You can set how much you want to rent and where. You might find what your looking for. I sure did. hope this helps! Good luck.
Cheap apartments in california ?
Ok so I'm really thinking about moving to California by next summer and I want to be close to LA. And I was wondering if anyone knew and cheap apartments with the price range of $300-$500 .or $300-700 and I will have a roommate which is my best friend. So I will be just paying half But at the same time just in case me and her get into a bad altercation I want to be able to afford the apartment on my own .so can someone please help me?
If $700 is the top amount that you would want to pay for an apartment then you are out of luck. This is the cost of a room rental in the Los Angeles/Long Beach area.
The likely price of a rental unit in the Los Angeles/Long Beach area is in excess of $950.00 per month. These type rentals are not in the best areas of any city in the Los Angeles county area.
Web sites might be a good place to find an apartment or house to rent, if you want to go through the entire list to find one in your state and then city.
The best place to look for places to rent is to go to the yellow pages of your telephone book, look under property managers.
These individuals list properties for rent in certain areas, so make sure you select the areas in which you wish to rent.
Call several of the property managers listed there, tell them you want a list of properties that they have for rent. Some will fax, email or mail the list of local places to rent along with the address, number of bedrooms and bath rooms, amenities available, such as washer and dryers or gyms, the monthly rental of the unit. Most will include a rental application. These list will include the monthly rental required, if a lease or month to month agreement will be signed. They will also indicate if they will accept Section 8 vouchers. They will also indicate it they have disabled access, allow pets and if so the type allowed.
They might indicate a web site that you might visit to get their list of places to rent. It does not cost to get a rental list from a reputable property manager.
Some will require you to stop by their office and pick up the list. A lot of them post their list outside so the list are available 24/7 365.
Make sure you don't fall for the scams and purchase a list as 70%-80% of these list are composed of free list they have compiled. They are not the property managers of any property in most instances.
You might also google Property managers in whatever city or community you want to live in and see what comes up. Again do not pay for this information as it is free from reliable property managers.
Any cheap apartments anywhere in California,below the price of 1200 in a nice area?
You do understand that CA is a HUGE state, right? It's larger than Germany or Italy.
Narrow it down and use some apartment search websites.
Cheap apartments in Southern California?
I'm 18 and thinking about moving out next year.
What city in California has the cheapest apartments located by a CA University/University?
Most likely Bakersfield. You may find some really cheep ones near Stanislaus State in Turlock as well.
im looking to relocate my family find apartments in california for cheap?
Lol california is HUGE… Thats like saying what are all the prices for apartments given a 1000 mile radius..

"Skateboarding eyes brighter future with USOPC support on mental issues" by Rory Carroll via Reuters
by Board Retailers Association | Feb 18, 2021 | News, Rest In Peace, Skateboard, Social Issues |
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) – The skateboarding community, rocked by several prominent deaths related to mental health issues, is hoping the benefits that go with the sport's inclusion in this year's Tokyo Olympics will help its athletes tackle the underlying problems.Professional skateboarder Tony Hawk rides his during the outbreak of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) in Vista, California, U.S., May 8, 2020. Picture taken May 8, 2020. REUTERS/Mike Blake
Briton Ben Raemers died by suicide in 2019, skateboarding pioneer Jeff Grosso passed away after a drug overdose in 2020, and 22-year-old Henry Gartland took his own life last month, highlighting the urgent need to address issues like depression and addiction.
"Skateboarding is a very tight-knit community," said USA Skateboarding CEO Josh Friedberg.
"Everyone has these links to each other and that makes losses like these tougher to deal with because there's so many personal connections.
"The good news is that it's causing people to think more deeply about mental health in skateboarding – trying to figure out new ways to support the people that they love and care about."
Friedberg said one key development is that the athletes now have access to the United States Olympic and Paralympic Committee (USOPC) mental health services for the first time.
"We've been really lucky to have the support of the USOPC in this situation," he said.
"They have been proactive in providing mental health resource for our team and staff."
Tony Hawk, one of the world's most famous skateboarders, said that while there has been progress in combating the stigma associated with mental health, more work needs to be done.
"I'd like to say it's more open now, but there have been times when I've heard of someone struggling or even pass away and it's very hush-hush as to what happened.
"As much as I respect the privacy of families, I think it's a disservice to not bring that to light so people understand that hey, everyone is struggling."
BATTLING ADDICTION
Veteran skateboarder Brandon Turner has made it his mission to use his own battles with substance abuse to help those who find themselves on the same destructive path.Slideshow ( 2 images )
Turner, a prodigy who rose to fame during the sport's era of excess in the 1990s, nearly lost his life several times due to drinking-related incidents that included leaping from a bridge and being hit by a car.
"It was fun 24/7, which is unmanageable for anyone," he recalls of the sport's early days.
Now 39, Turner devotes his time to supporting skaters who want to get sober through his work with San Diego rehab center Healthy Life Recovery. He has also experienced a career renaissance.
"I'm trying to let people know that there is hope," he said.
He said perceptions around mental health are evolving.
"Things are getting better because when I was growing up, if I was talking about my feelings, I would have been put in a headlock.
"People are starting to empathize now and getting more awareness, which is awesome."
Hawk said skateboarding, which has seen a surge in the sale of boards amid coronavirus pandemic-induced lockdowns and which will reach a massive new audience after it is showcased on the Olympic stage, has a bright future.
"I feel like there's hope on the horizon," he said.
"Skateboarding is more popular than ever, I'm thankful for that. Let's just get on the other side of all of this."

En la mitología griega Opo u Opunte (en griego Ὀπόεις) es el héroe epónimo del pueblo locrio de Opunte. Se citan a dos héroes homónimos, si es que no son el mismo personaje con dos variantes diferentes.

Opunte I
El primer Opunte fue un rey de los epeos, hijo de Zeus y de Protogenia, hija de Deucalión. Estaba desposado con Cambise, a quien otros llaman confusamente Protogenia. A esta Zeus raptó y la condujo hasta hasta los montes del Ménalo en Arcadia, donde se unió a la muchacha.

Opunte II
Este segundo Opunte, si es que no se trata de una invención del propio Píndaro para favorecer al público opuntio, era el hijo de Zeus y de la anterior muchacha. Fue adoptado por Locro como hijo suyo, y le dio su nombre en honor de su abuelo materno. Durante el gobierno de Opunte llegó a su pueblo un huésped célebre, Menecio, hijo de Áctor y Egina; Menecio sería el abuelo de Patroclo. Una versión nos cuenta que surgió una disputa en Opunte y su padre Locro. Opunte decidió marcharse del hogar paterno y se llevó consigo a un gran número de ciudadanos, en la búsqueda de un oráculo para fundar una nueva colonia. El oráculo le dijo que construyera una ciudad donde pudiera ser mordido por un perro de madera, y mientras cruzaba hacia el otro mar, Opus pisó un cynosbatus («una zarza dulce», palabra que contienen en griego la forma cynos, «perro»). Muy preocupado por la herida, pasó varios días allí, durante los cuales exploró el país y fundó las ciudades de Fisco y Eantea, junto con el resto de polis que eran habitadas por los locrios ozolianos. De Opunte desciende Ayante, caudillo de los locrios durante la guerra de Troya. Al menos Eustacio relaciona su genealogía así: Opunte - Cino - Hodédoco - Oileo - Ayante.

Many payday lenders are concerned over the forthcoming consequences brought upon by the financial bill that was passed by the Senate and signed by the President yesterday. Their concerns regard new regulations on the payday loan industry by the federal government. Many payday loan lenders, such as Payday Loan Trust, believe these regulations are too restrictive and hand too much power to the respective payday loan State. These new regulations will be counterproductive to payday loan business operations, as it will hurt their business and may result in downsizing. In the long run, a new wave of layoffs and shutdown businesses from the payday loan sector will go on to hurt the struggling economy even more.
A recent payday loan article from The Huffington Post claims that the new financial bill will put an end to payday lending because it enables banks to compete against payday lenders for short term high interest loans. According to the article, "If banks want to grow in the future, they will have to adapt their business models to serve the credit-challenged population." In the same article they go onto say that 1/3 of the US population is at high 30 day credit risks, lending out money to high risk borrowers in Florida will only put banks at more risk. The fact of the matter is, big banks will never be able to compete with short term lenders so long as they are attached to Wall Street. A 30 days payday loan of $100 could cost banks a lot more than a payday lender simply because of banks operating costs. Take into consideration bank business costs and overhead, their employees, and their executives salaries and bonuses, a banks will not be able to be profitable on short term loans.
The new financial overhaul is here to put caps and limits on all types of short term loans, including payday and title loans, and to curb predatory lending. It is simply wrong and naive analysis to think that this bill was going to shift the short term lending industry from payday loan lenders to bigger lending institutions like banks.
In addition, studies show that many Americans from Flroida have lost faith in our banking system because they see it as a direct correlation to the downfall of the US economy. They will continue to fear hidden fees tacked on by banks even if the new bill forces them to "advertise their fee structures as clearly as a McDonald's menu." Americans are smart people and they know it was big banks and Wall Street that failed America back in 2011, not payday lenders.
Ok, so here I go again!!!
This is what I get for being up so early—Infomercials!!!!!ICKY!!!!
Anyway, by now you all know that I am an information junky—that is RELIABLE information!
I don't know what has been discussed about "money making 2000"–I couldn't find anything in the club—-that doesn't mean it isn't there, but come on 10,000 messages!!!!yikes–I trid my best though!!!
Ok, back to my point(and there is one!)-Well, after being subjected to an infomercial by Don Lapre about "money making 2000", I decided to do some research(go figure)! And it is suspiciously similar to—-you guessed it—an HM!!! There are some differences, but you know, if it quacks like a duck…..!Anyway here are some links for anyone interested. I personally found it interesting, and from reading what I have about it, He won't be getting $40 bucks from me anytime soon!!!
3) It's not until the 3rd call that they tell you it's Herbalife. During the same call they start really pouring it on and then they tell you that they're going to teach you how to make $20,000 a month in the next 90 days or less. They get you all hyped-up and then tell you that you must "sign-on" first for $299 to get started. You still don't know what you'll be doing and won't until several calls later.
4) You order signs, through outside venders however, I wonder what hidden relationship they have with these people since EVERYONE uses the same 2 or 3 sign makers and they are continuously promoted.
You MUST use Mailboxes Etc, not the Post Office so you can build a wall around your identity. Mailboxes cannot divulge personal information about you, the PO will because it's public record. The 2 voicemail boxes are also through only one company because they download the same messages for EVERYONE! All the other materials like the Decision Package, CD's, lead generation mailing labels, booklets, etc. are ordered from NWTW! Can't do the system any other way!!!
I have ALWAYS hated putting up signs but they bombard you with reasons why you'd better do the signs because they attract so much business!! I did them for about a few weeks and stopped because it I got tired of worrying about doing something illegal. I STILL have over 200 in my garage!!! Not to mention all of the Decision Packages I had to buy that I was never was able to get rid of or that were returned for a refund!!!
topics I also found mounds of legal actions taken against both. Ahhhh, the internet is a sweet thing!!!!!! It is becoming harder for either, or anything like it to hide behind secrets. And you can bet that I will not be silent.

In September 2014, Hilton Los Cabos Beach & Golf Resort and the area of Los Cabos were devastated by Hurricane Odile. Less than 10 months later, the resort re-opened and by our mid-December visit in 2015, the renovation was fully complete. This was our first trip to Los Cabos so we can't make any personal comparisons, but by all accounts, Hilton Los Cabos is better than ever.
Here are a few quick tips to enjoy stress-free travels to this spectacular spot and find your happy place at one of the best resorts in Cabo.
Arrival at the San Jose airport was a breeze. Lines at immigration and customs were short and efficient, but be aware that you will be accosted by people selling timeshares immediately after you leave customs. They will ask you about your transfers to your hotels, and it is tempting to ask them questions. My advice: keep walking and do not engage in a conversation unless you want to be delayed.
The drive to Hilton Los Cabos was less than 30 minutes. I recommend booking a shuttle or private transfer in advance. We were whisked away in a black suburban and offered ice cold waters and Corona beer.
As Hilton Honors members, we took advantage of the digital check-in feature, which allows you to select your own room the day before arrival and sign up for space available paid upgrades. When we arrived at the hotel, we were literally escorted to our room within 10 minutes by the porter. We didn't even need to stop at the reception to check-in; just a quick stop at the bar for our welcome margaritas and lemonade!
The architectural design of the resort provides ocean views from all rooms, although some are only partial. We were lucky enough to be placed on the 4th floor in the center section of the resort in one of the oceanfront rooms — breathtaking. We actually saw a whale from our balcony!
The rooms with the best views are on the 4th floor or higher. If you want to guarantee a high floor for your vacation, book a room in the new "hotel within a hotel" called the Vista Club. All Vista Club rooms are on the 5th and 6th floors with beautiful views and special amenities, including reserved seating at the pool. If you do end up being assigned a room on the first floor of the resort, the upside is that you have will have loungers right outside your room and are just steps away from one of the two gorgeous pools.
All of the rooms have been completely updated and are elegant, albeit simply appointed. The mattresses are firm and the sheets are delectably soft. If you are travelling with children and are not splurging for a larger suite or two rooms (adjoining rooms are an option), you will probably want a room with two queen-sized beds or a junior suite with room for a rollaway. The hotel charges $75 for rollaway beds. Cribs are also available.
Our suite was appointed with a nice-sized fridge which we used to stock drinks and snacks from our stop at the local grocery store, Mega. Microwaves are also available for an extra fee. Inquire ahead of time about whether your room has a fridge that you can use to store your own drinks and snacks.
If you don't have time to stop at the grocery store, no problem. A small deli that sells ice cream and snacks just opened at the resort, and there are more than five dining options on property with kid-friendly menu items. The breakfast buffet at El Meson is not to be missed and is included is included if you are a Gold or Diamond Hilton Honors member or staying in the La Vista Club.
There is a quick check-out option on the phone in your room if you are short on time. I recommend requesting a copy of your bill the night before departure so you can check it out when you are not so rushed. We booked a private car to take us to the airport in San Jose (25-minute drive), but you can also arrange for a taxi. Try and arrive at the airport in San Jose at least two hours before your flight. The airport can get incredibly busy.
We hope these Cabo tips will help you have a fabulous stay at one of our favorite resorts!


On-chain transactions of Ethereum hit an all-time excessive in December 2018, in line with a report by crypto analytics agency Diar.
The on-chain transaction worth of Ethereum (ETH) hit an all time excessive in December 2018, crypto analytics agency Diar stories on Jan. 21.
Diar states that charges are unlikely to intrude with development as Ethereum has a few of the lowest charges for on-chain transactions.
The Constantinople onerous fork within the Ethereum Network was just lately delayed after the invention of a safety vulnerability permitting a reentrancy assault.
According to ChainSafety, the smart contract audit agency that found the assault, the Constantinople improve introduces cheaper gasoline value (transaction charges) for some operations on the Ethereum community.
An sudden aspect impact allegedly allows reentrancy assaults by way of using sure instructions in ETH smart contracts. A reentrancy vulnerability permits potential attackers to steal crypto from a smart contract on the community by repeatedly requesting funds from it whereas feeding it false knowledge in regards to the malicious actor's precise ETH steadiness.
Following a repair by builders, Diar states that the Constantinople improve will lower charges for sure sorts of transactions, which can enable for higher storage use.

Fiction > Contemporary > Wet Moon
Wet Moon vol 3: Further Realms of Fright (New Edition) back
Page 45 Review by Stephen
Yet another immediately arresting cover: your eyes cannot help but meet Mara's as she looks on from an angle at everyone around her, at everything happening around her, in her absence.
With her friends partnering up, she's been left behind, posting alone on Livejournal, comments: 0.
Livejournal was a thing back then - an unfathomable thing, to be sure, living your whole life online in public - as was MySpace. Campbell captures the naive illusion of privacy to perfection there as well as implying its potential pitfalls should word get around, just as she does the intimacy of Cleo's genuinely private, hand-doodled diary entries. It's psychologically spot-on: the questioning, the doubts and self-doubts, and the way in which, in a letter to yourself, you can meanderingly think your worries through on the page in the hope of a better future, or as a means of self-justification.
It's all so completely credible that this series' comparatively low profile is a crime.
A much thicker book than previously, this third volume of ruminative WET MOON - featuring often strained friendships between young and so understandably insecure, individualistic punky girls experimenting with their hair, faces, bodies and each other in a southern college campus - grows kinder in places, in others even more ominous with a missing cat, stalking and daydreams of extreme, psychotic violence.
Also, one terrible, totally unexpected betrayal that will have you screaming: "Noooooooo!"
This time round I re-write that with hindsight (especially the "daydreams of extreme, psychotic violence") for the original editions of WET MOON have already reached volume six and if you think you can wait another three or four months for the next re-issue after this, well, I admire your seemingly limitless self-control. If you can't (and you can't) then we have the equally delicious earlier editions of volumes 4, 5 and 6 still in stock. Only the covers are different.
So yes, Trilby, with her Tank Girl quiff, certainly grows kinder during the course of this volume, although to begin with she's in familiarly unfaithful form, dissing her best friend Cleo to her new boyfriend Martin as a far from ideal best friend, thereby proving herself to be a far from ideal best friend.
But then the now-adorable Cleo - who wouldn't just not hurt a fly, she would pamper it - wasn't always such a considerate soul during High School. There's a flashback followed by further recollections and self-recriminations which makes that abundantly clear. But then I did type "psychologically spot-on": some of us were monsters when young.
Amongst other truths of youth: bonding over bands and tattoos, embarrassment over enthusiasms you sequester even from your friends; the sharing of secrets, the betrayal of secrets; and not quite knowing if you're going out with someone or not. Hoping desperately that you are, but not wanting to fuck things up with presumption or the first move, this is tentative to a T:
"So... um, am I really your girl?"
"Like... You said... You said I was your girl."
"I did? When?"
"When... Um, when I met your band...? You said, like... you introduced me as your girl...?"
"Oh... yeah. I dunno..."
"Well, I..."
"You wanna be?"
"What...?"
"Do you wanna be my girl?"
You'll have to wait for the turn of a page.
"Oh... Um, I... I dunno... maybe... yes?"
"Good enough for me. Heh."
The ecstasy and adoration in Cleo Lovedrop's bright eyes!
And that's another reason why I consider it a crime that the profile of WET MOON isn't bigger. Long before THE WICKED + THE DIVINE, SAGA et al, Campbell's WET MOON was all-inclusive. Sexuality, the diversity of skin colour and body forms... it's all here without either judgement, proselytising or indeed any indication that those were anything but the norm, thereby evaporating the very idea of the norm.
Here Campbell's art evolves once more. Trilby's collar bones are so skinny that you can pinch them and physically feel them between your fingers, and the freckles right down her back are sublime.
Campbell experiments in flashback by leaving out certain tones, delivering more delicate lines throughout in spite of extreme tendonitis, and giving Cleo absolutely enormous, smitten eyes like pools of liquid love.
There's a scene in which Cleo and Audrey finally confide in each other in bed, in the dark, late at night. Instead of Cleo's eyes bouncing with reflected light which isn't there, they are instead great big orbs of open, trusting grey.

From "OUR SHUTTERS WERE never again to be ..." through "... Where is my brother?"
With the closing of the shutters comes more and more of a retreat from the world. Langley begins having the newspapers delivered instead of going out to buy them, and he goes out only at night. The changing demographics of the neighborhood -- the arrival of Latinos and blacks -- "was enough for our neighbors to throw up their hands," and for anonymous letter writers to blame it on the Collyers.
Langley pays less attention to his universal newspaper project and more to "his legal studies with the mail-order law school," in an effort to deal with creditors. Homer realizes that Langley enjoys it, and he approves of this turn toward the practical. "It brought a here-and-now component to his life, an immediacy, and the promise, good or bad, of an outcome, which was not the case with his eternal, never-to-be-achieved, Platonic newspaper." But it is also a time in which the city itself seems to be decaying, and Homer's life is increasingly confined to the house.
Then Homer notices that his piano seems to be going out of tune in the middle octaves. And when he checks the player piano, and an electronic keyboard that Langley had brought home, he finds the same distortion of sound. "At that moment I understood it was not any piano but my hearing that was off-key. I was hearing a C as a C-sharp." He is going deaf. It is a gradual process, "allowing me progressive degrees of acceptance," and he decides not to tell Langley about it.
Then their various legal battles attract the attention of the press. A reporter rings their bell and his obnoxious behavior makes them realize that they are fodder for the "human interest" story. Langley reads to him "this supposedly factual account about these weird eccentrics who had shuttered their windows and bolted their doors and run up thousands of dollars in unpaid bills though they were worth millions." The story gets Langley's name wrong, calling him "Larry," as well as their ages. Homer asks how Langley's newspaper would cover them. "We are sui generis, Homer, he said. Unless someone comes along as remarkably prophetic as we are, I'm obliged to ignore our existence."
By researching the Collyers' ancestry, the newspapers turn their story into "the decline of a House, the Fall of a respectable family." But Homer argues the opposite: "After all, we were living original self-directed lives unintimidated by convention -- could we not be a supreming of the line, a flowering of the family tree?"
Langley begins to hear a scurrying sound in the house, and when it's brought to his attention, Homer hears it too. "The sound was not that of something small, and not of a timid interloper, but of something living in our house impertinently, without our leave." So Langley begins bringing home stray cats to try to trap whatever it is.
Apparently the mysterious creature or family of creatures -- for I was coming to believe that more than one was involved -- had so befouled their residence over the dining room that the sodden ceiling buckled, looking, said Langley, like the bottom of the moon, and down came the chandelier -- like some sort of parachute on a cable -- shattering against the Model T, the pendant crystals flying off in every direction and scattering the yowling cats.
When a banker and a city marshal arrive with a summons, threatening their eviction, Langley handles it with a calm that surprises Homer, requesting a hearing which "meant lawyers for the bank and endless protraction of the dispute before any eviction could occur." He continues to point out the eventual legal complications, drawing on knowledge from his law books, and concludes by telling them to "get the hell off our property." It is after this confrontation that they do in fact pay off the mortgage. Langley walks "nearly half the length of Manhattan" to the bank, an action that is misreported in the press: "my brother wasn't trying merely to save carfare -- that was a secondary consideration. Really he wanted to keep the officers of the Dime Savings in a state of suspense."
While Langley is walking out on his errand, Homer decides to make a rare venture outside. It is a warm spring morning, but when he starts to cross the street, thinking that the traffic has stopped, his fading hearing fails him: "I'd already stepped off the curb when a woman called out No! -- or Non! -- for this was Jacqueline Roux, the about-to-be dear friend of my end of life.... And in this way, and not the only time, did Jacqueline Roux save my life."
She not only helps Homer cross the street, she goes with him into the park and sits with him on a bench. And she explains that she had come to see him because "you and your brother are famous now in France." He protests when he learns that she is a reporter for Le Monde, but she persists: "I am not here to interview you. I am to write about your country. I have been everywhere because I don't know what I am looking for." Her article is to be about "what cannot be seen," the "secrets" of America. She asks him about the closed shutters on the house. Houses in Europe have shutters "because of our history," she says. But in America "homes confront the street unafraid, for everyone to see. So why do you have black shutters on your windows, Homer Collyer?"
Homer is unable to explain, but as their conversation goes on he feels it bringing out in him a "competitive intelligence," or perhaps just flirtation. They talk about Central Park, and she tells him of a sensation she once had "that the Central Park was sunken at the bottom of the city. And with its ponds and pools and lakes as if, you know, it is slowly sinking?" He is "enchanted by the intensity of her conversation -- so poetic, so philosophical, so French, for all I knew. But at the same time it was all too fanciful for me."
He is glad that she isn't "trying out her ideas on Langley," who would have been too impatient with her. He realizes that her ideas about Central Park and shutters are "bizarre," but at the same time "her passionate engagement with her ideas was a revelation to me," and he envies her life, "going around the world and making up things about it." When the time comes to return to the house he invites her in, but she replies, "Ah no, merci, I have appointments. But sometime, yes." She lets him feel her face, though he doesn't touch her lips. She tells him she has been married, but isn't anymore, and that she has a son in secondary school in Paris. And that she will return to New York in a few weeks and they should have coffee. They part.
Langley is unimpressed when Homer reports on this encounter, telling him, "you have always been susceptible to the ladies, do you know that?" But Homer, expecting another visit from Jacqueline, decides that he wants a haircut and a new suit, and that he wants to eat more -- she has remarked on his thinness. But Langley also picks up on the fact that Jacqueline had helped Homer cross the street, which confirms Langley's suspicions that his brother is growing deaf. He studies the books in their father's library and one day tries a test of Homer's hearing, but goes no further with that.
Jacqueline doesn't call again, and he realizes that he has let his imagination run wild. "The haircuts I got and the new suit of clothes I had bought in anticipation of her return were like any other played-out fantasies of mine." So he turns back to what he "could rely on, the filial bond." But Langley is depressed, too. "Whereas I was relieved that we no longer had to worry about losing our home, he felt amortization, militarily, as a defeat." He is roused to battle again by a new enemy: Con Edison, which turns off the power because they haven't paid their bills.
He went out and bought marine lamps, wilderness lamps, long-handled searchlights, propane lamps, mercury lamps, hurricane lamps, pocket flashlights, high-intensity beam lamps on poles, and for the upstairs hall with its clerestory window, a battery-powered sodium lamp which went on automatically as daylight faded.
Homer is glad they haven't found their candles, which might have set fire to the place.
When the water is turned off as well, Langley is inspired to further efforts at independence, and the brothers set out every day before dawn with two baby carriages in which they haul home the water from an "old water post from the days when water was made available for horses." They restrict their bathroom use to the one in the ground-floor guest room, and for drinking water they fill thermoses and canteens at a drinking fountain in the park.
Children, perhaps having seen the brothers filling their canteens at the fountain, begin throwing rocks at the shutters. At first, Langley runs out to chase them away, but that only makes the children more active. So the brothers decide to endure it. Once, Langley peers out through the shutters and says that some of them are teenagers. "So you are right, Homer, this may be citywide, and we have the rare privilege of an advanced look at the replacement citizenry for the millennium." Langley considers using some of their guns to intimidate the tormentors, but Homer says they'll stop when the weather turns cold, and they do.
Something that Langley says bothers Homer: "He said everything alive was at war." He reflects on their situation and worries about "being turned into a mythic joke." Once they are gone, will anyone understand what they were? "My brother and I were going down, and he, lung-shot and half insane, knew that better than I." And so Homer begins to chronicle their lives, taking Jacqueline Roux as his muse. He imagines that she has returned, and that they dine together and he plays music for her. He confesses that he is a blind man going deaf, and she considers this as "a problem to be solved. Why not write, then, she says. There is music in words, and it can be heard you know, by thinking." He should write about his life: "Your life across from the park. Your history deserving of the black shutters. Your house that is a greater attraction than the Empire State Building."
Langley had encouraged Homer to write, making sure that he has a Braille typewriter and plenty of paper.
I have been at it for some time now. I have no clear sense of how long. I sense the passage of time as a spatial thing, as Langley's voice has become fainter and fainter, as if he has walked off down a long road, or is falling away in space, or as if some other sound that I can't hear, a waterfall, has washed away his words.
Langley develops a system of signals, of touches on Homer's arm to communicate when it is time to eat or go to bed, and he learns Braille so that he can give Homer other messages by placing his finger on the Braille keys of the typewriter to spell out the words. But a prowler tries to break in one night, and Langley hears other sounds that suggest people may be trying to get in, attracted by stories "that the Collyers, distrustful of banks, keep enormous amounts of cash stashed away." He builds barriers and boobytraps, with the result that Homer is essentially imprisoned in the house, unable to move about by himself.
"My bed is a mattress on the floor beside my typing table," Homer writes, and tells us that Langley sleeps on the kitchen table that once was a bed for Vincent. Rats begin to take over, and Homer sometimes feels them at his feet. "There are moments when I cannot bear this unremitting consciousness. It knows only itself. The images of things are not the things themselves." But he is brought back by the touch of his brother's hand. Until the day that there is a crash that shakes the house and Langley comes no more.

Flipping houses has now become a cultural trend, and fix-and-flip loans are on the rise, creating new opportunities for brokers.
One of the most popular shows on HGTV is "Flip or Flop," in which hosts Tarek and Christina El Moussa purchase old or neglected properties — sometimes sight unseen — and then renovate and flip them for resale. Viewers are hooked into the drama from the purchase to the rigorous renovations, showings and, of course, sales.
Similarly, "Flip This House" on A&E Network spotlights the purchase and renovation of a single unit. Each episode details the listing price, purchase price, the cost of renovation, and the market value (including profit) of the property that has been fixed and flipped.
No one claims that fix-and-flips are easy. While the conflict and solution generally come in an hour's time on television, the reality is that flipping houses is serious work and requires a lot of capital to take advantage of market opportunities. Costs include the downpayment on the property, the renovation costs, insurance, permits and fees, and more. Once the renovation and sale are completed, the seller is responsible for recording fees, title search fees, escrow fees, and other costs.
According to new research from ATTOM Data Solutions' 2017 Home Flipping Report, house flipping in the U.S. increased to an 11-year high in 2017, creating an excellent opportunity for brokers who offer fix-and-flip mortgages. In fact, for the second year in a row, more than 200,000 homes were flipped. And the trend has gone national. Pennsylvania was the state with the highest gross ROI (108.3%) with a tidy $78,000 gross profit on each. Ohio, Louisiana, Maryland, and Illinois rounded out the top five states.
How Can Brokers Profit from Fix-and-Flip Loans?
Investors seeking capital to purchase, restore and sell investment properties often turn to non-bank sources for fix-and-flip loans because they lack a consistent source of income to qualify for a traditional bank loan. Brokers sometimes turn down these opportunities because they don't understand the options available for servicing borrowers who are hard to qualify.
Traditional, owner-occupied residential property mortgages are focused on the buyer's personal income and credit to meet the strict guidelines established by government service agencies like Fannie May and Freddie Mac. However, mortgages for residential investment properties are often asset-based, meaning their focus is on the value of the property and its revenue-generating potential. Because of this, the use of asset-based lending solutions allows brokers to qualify self-employed flippers who may not qualify for a traditional mortgage.
Asset-based lenders are also willing to fund fix-and-flip projects that traditional banks won't touch, including the cost of renovations, through short-term loans based on the property's "as repaired value" or ARV. Such financing is the key to winning the business of fix-and-flip investors.
Mortgage brokers who both understand and know how to use asset-based mortgage solutions can take advantage of cultural trends that are currently driving the real estate investment market.


The elevage is quite simple: The wines are aged in concrete tanks and French oak barrels depending on the wine. Again, following in my philosophy of respecting the fruit, I only use barrels from one wine to six wines. The white wines are aged a maximum of 8 months and the red wines 18 months before bottling. You will find a lot of freshness in Montfaucon wines. That is certainly a result of blending early maturation grapes with late maturing varieties that have higher natural acidity.

Though you can now learn anything seeing YouTube videos; but you cannot learn martial arts this way. You need continuous guidance to learn martial arts. If you want to join martial arts classes, it is important to choose the right martial arts school. Here are some tips for finding the right martial arts school.
You should research on the martial arts schools near you. You should find out whether they have any introductory classes. You should also visit the places to see what they are doing. If possible, take a few classes and decide whether you are comfortable or not. You should have a family-like environment.
The martial arts school must have a sparring culture that is well-handled; that is, the school must allow you to beat your opponents in fights and not hold you back all the time. At the same time, the instructor must ensure that no one gets injured while fighting. The environment must be safe for everyone.
It is the most important thing that you need to look for when selecting a good martial arts school. The instructor must be well trained and experienced. You should look at his or her credentials. You should also feel comfortable to work with the instructor.
It is always better to choose a school that is near you. That way you won't miss any classes and commuting long distances won't be an excuse anymore. The classes are usually two or three times a week and you should go to the classes regularly in order to learn martial arts properly.
Karate and taekwondo are very similar. They have noticeable differences between the two; still, people often confuse between the two. Here we are going to look at the differences between karate and taekwondo.
Karate is a Japanese martial art form that doesn't use any weapons. The participants fight with bare hands. It was developed from the Ryukyu Islands that is now Okinawa in Japan. Karate also has some Chinese influence. Taekwondo originates from Korea. It is a combat sport. It started 2000 years ago and has the influence of the three Korean kingdoms of Silla, Goguryeo, and Baekje.
The fighting style differs between the two. The karate uses more hand techniques; the kicks are only used as a backup. Taekwondo, on the other hand, involves more kicking. It uses hands as a backup as opposed to the karate. In taekwondo, you will learn various kick moves like jumping and spinning. In karate, there is very less movement of the legs and the legs stay on the ground most of the time. In Taekwondo, you need to take various leg stance to perform kicks.
In competitions, karate and taekwondo have specific guidelines. In karate, you get equal points for kicks and punches; but in taekwondo, you get more points for kicks.
Karate and taekwondo are both good for self-defense. They are a good form of physical exercise as well. The type of martial art you choose depends on your preference. So, choose one that you feel comfortable with.
Martial arts can change your kid's life. There are many benefits of practicing martial arts. Just like sports should be a part of their daily life, you can include martial arts in their routine as well. Here are the top reasons why martial arts is important for kids.
Recent statistics show that millions of children at school are being subject to bullying every year. This is hampering their studies and making them mentally weak. They are losing self-confidence and many children even commit suicide when they cannot tackle bullying anymore. Martial arts will teach self-defense. Your kid will be able to defend not only physically, but also mentally.
Because of video games, children now spend less time in the field. This is affecting their health. They are getting obese. Martial arts will keep your child active. He or she will become physically fit and strong. It will also improve their cardiovascular function.
Martial arts will teach your child to be focused, patient, and disciplined. These features will help your child in their daily lives even after they grow up to become adults.
Martial arts teaches how to respect others. It is a part of the martial arts tradition. They will learn how to respect the opponent, the instructors and so the others as well.
Your child will learn how to set a goal in life. It will give them motivation and direction to achieve something. They will learn how to organize their resources in order to reach their goals.
Martial arts will make your child confident. They won't feel left behind anymore. Their mind and body will be set for their future endeavors.
We are a martial arts academy in Nevada. In our academy, you will learn from the best instructors in a family environment.

Sam Smith Raves About Celine Dion's Voice & She Says They Are 'Amazing'
Celine Dion and Sam Smith are gushing over each other in a cute Twitter exchange ahead of the holidays.
In a new video interview, Sam opened up about the range of Celine's voice and named one of their favorite songs from her.
"As a song, I think it's so outrageous," Sam said of her iconic tune, "It's All Coming Back To Me Now".
"The first time I really started singing was musical theater. There's something with Céline Dion, where she ticks that box. It's proper singing. It's from the gut," they added.
Sam went on, adding, "Vocally, she just has a tone and there's a sharpness to her voice that I think just cuts right through you, and you can hear her personality when she sings too, which is wonderful."
After Celine saw Sam's comments about her music, she sent some love back to them.
Aww, thank you so much @samsmith. It was great to see you last year in London, and forget about me – I think you're so amazing!! Take care … hope to see you again soon. ❤ Celine xx… https://t.co/LhSlyPdJ4m
— Celine Dion (@celinedion) December 22, 2020
This isn't the first time the two have raved about each other.
Sam previously shared a video from a festival in 2019, which they went to, and wrote "CELINE DION CHANGED MY LIFE."
They also revealed that later on that year, they had written a song for Celine's latest album, Courage.
Truly honoured to have written 'For The Lover That I Lost' for the new @celinedion record, with the incredible @jimmynapes & @stargatemusic ❤ Celine, you are my everything and you are the reason I even sang in the first place. All hail the queen, the legend and the icon x pic.twitter.com/9Co34cYXnh

Celine Dion Reacts to Losing Lawsuit with Agent: 'I Feel Betrayed'
Celine Dion has released a statement in response to the ruling that she owes commissions to ICM Partners and partner Rob Prinz for her concert deal with AEG.
The California Labor Commission has ruled that Celine must pay commissions on the deal, which was reached in 2017 at a value of $500 million. ICM Partners, her former agency, negotiated the deal and they sued her in 2019 for unpaid commissions.
Deadline reports that the "ruling states that ICM Partners is due 1.5% of the gross compensation earned or received from all Las Vegas residency performances, 3% of all touring performances and 1.5% from performances in her home province of Quebec."
Celine and her attorney have both spoken out with statements, with her lawyer committing to appealing the decision and taking the lawsuit to a jury.

Sam Heughan, Priyanka Chopra & Celine Dion to Star in 'Text For You'!
Sam Heughan, Priyanka Chopra, and Celine Dion have signed on to star in a new movie together! The romantic drama is currently tentatively titled Text For You.
According to Deadline, the film is "about a woman who, to ease the pain after tragically losing her fiancé, starts to send romantic texts to his old cell. It turns out, the phone number has been reassigned to a man across town suffering from similar heartbreak. The two meet and feel an undeniable connection, but can't seem to leave the past behind. In this English language remake, the music and influence of Dion gives them the courage to take a chance on love again."
Celine is obviously a major recording artist and she has not often taken on acting roles so this will be a real treat to see her on the big screen!
