Second App State assistant added to Eli Drinkwitz's Mizzou staff
By John TaylorDec 12, 2019, 10:40 PM EST
For the second time Thursday, Eli Drinkwitz has added an assistant to his new Missouri coaching staff. And, for the second time, it's a member of his old Appalachian State.
First, Charlie Harbison was announced as a defensive assistant whose specific duties will be spelled out later. Next, it's Erik Link being the second confirmed addition as part of Drinkwitz's 10-man on-field staff.
Unlike Harbison, though, Link's role has already been defined — special teams coordinator. That's the same job Link held with the Mountaineers in 2019, his first and only season with the Sun Belt Conference school.
"Erik is a man of high character with a background in teaching and coaching," said Drinkwitz in a statement. "His special teams units are detailed and very sound, and his guys play hard. They focus on effort, execution and high energy."
Link was the special teams coordinator at Louisiana Tech in 2018, his first season as an on-field assistant at the FBS level. In 2011-12, he was the special teams coordinator at FCS Montana State.
In two separate stints at Auburn, he served as a quality control assistant (2010) and special teams/offensive analyst (2013-15).
Arizona safety Xavier Bell enters transfer portal
If you had the Arizona Wildcats football program as the next school to feel the portal's sting, collect your winnings. Or something.
247Sports.com was the first to report that Xavier Bell has taken the first step in leaving the Pac-12 school. An Arizona Wildcats football official subsequently confirmed that the defensive back is in the NCAA transfer database.
A redshirt sophomore, Bell will be leaving the Wildcats as a graduate transfer. That will allow him to use the first of his two seasons of eligibility in 2020 at another FBS school.
Bell was a three-star 2017 signee. The California native was rated as the No. 73 safety in the country on the 247Sports.com composite.
After redshirting as a true freshman, Bell played in 22 games the past two seasons. Of those, 10 appearances came in 2019. During his time with the Wildcats, Bell has been credited with 21 tackles, one pass defensed and one fumble recovery. He also blocked a punt in 2018.
Bell is one of a handful of players at his position who have left the program. From Michael Lev of the Arizona Daily Star:
Arizona hasn't lost as many players to the transfer portal since the start of the 2019 season as some of its Pac-12 rivals. But four players played safety at one point or another: Bell, Day Day Coleman, Maurice Gaines and Chacho Ulloa.
At the moment, just four Arizona Wildcats football players are listed in the portal.
The development involving Bell comes a couple of weeks after the revamping of the defensive coaching staff was completed.

I feel like I have such a long way to go to get back into clean eating...I'll do 2 or 3 healthy meals and then get tired and eat something unhealthy instead...but I love following your IG because I keep getting healthy ideas and I hope sooner or later I'll eat clean ALL or MOST of the time - fingers crossed!

Merhaba yazınız çok güzel, tebrik ederim çok kısa sürede sağlıklı şekilde kilolarınızı vermişsiniz.
Ben birkaç hafta önce büyük hevesle karatay diyetine başladım. Belki biliyorsunuzdur. Kahvaltıda 2 yumurta yemek şart. Yumurta yemeye başladıktan 10 gün sonra kollarımda sivilceler çıktı ve internetten okuduğum kadarıyla vücudumun yumurtaya alerjisi olduğunu öğrendim.
Yazınızın sonunda yiyecekler hakkında eğitim de aldığınızı yazmışsınız sanırım.
Sizce sadece yumurtanın sadece beyazını yesem alerji devam eder mi?
Cevaplarsanız çok memnun olurum, sevgiler..


A strong dose of soulful thought.
Last week, renowned anti-racist advocate, Tim Wise, came to UMass for a screening of his new documentary, "White Like Me," followed by a question and answer period with the audience. I won't go into details about the actual documentary, y'all can check that on your own time, but during the post-screening period, Wise was confronted about some online beef that occurred after a post on his blog in remembrance of the 50th anniversary of the Birmingham 16th Street Church bombing that killed 4 African-American girls on September 16th, 1963. His post not only acknowledges the tragedy, but also pays tribute to a man named Charles Morgan, Jr, a white southerner who lived in Birmingham at the time, but who opposed the bombings and was ultimately chased out of the South because of his willingness to speak out against racism.
Following the post, a stream of opposition came. In general, they criticized Wise's emphasis on the need for white allies. After all, they said, if it wasn't for white people making the lives so hard for Black-Americans to begin with, they wouldn't need white partnership in the first place. Wise retaliated to the responses through his Facebook page, the status update wasn't so friendly.
Wise admitted to the audience at UMass that he was wrong for how he reacted, saying that he is "only human," and he can't be perfect all the time. Once the applause ended after the apology, a man of color rose and told his own story of dealing with anger. He was a professor at Hampshire College, from the Bronx, and he explained how living in western Massachusetts is never easy for men of color. He told Wise of the discrimination he deals with on a regular basis. Despite being a college professor, it was the color of his skin that was seen first, and it would always put him in a disadvantage. Any man of color knows, he said, that we don't get the luxury of "being only human," because being of color, any outburst could be your last–you don't need to read a James Baldwin novel to come to that realization.
Tim Wise, a renowned expert on white privilege, could recognize he was a product of white privilege, but he could never fully understand how it manifested itself in his own life. If I he could, then he would never have been so openly accepting of the fact that he can have angry outbursts over issues as sensitive as the Birmingham bombing, and so easily get applause over it.
It was a year ago on my college campus when I had first met Tim Wise. I had no idea how famous Tim was, I had never heard of him before. As I sat down to hear him speak to a packed auditorium, I was impressed and unimpressed all in one. I remember being amused by his delivery, you cannot deny he wouldn't fair too badly as a stand up comedian. He has a way of fusing irony and raw facts through stating just the obvious reality. That is always refreshing to hear from someone who isn't of color. But then that becomes the real issue: Tim Wise isn't a person of color. What he was saying wasn't anything new or profound, but it was the fact that he was white which was why people gave him so much praise. So to put it ironically: In the same way Tim Wise goes around raising awareness on white privilege, he also benefits from it–he is white privilege.
At the end of the lecture, a friend who helped organized the event asked if I would go with him to take Tim to the airport. I couldn't turn down an opportunity to get some one one one with Tim Wise after hearing everything he just said. We covered a lot of ground in that 40-minute car ride. He told me about where he grew up, what he studied in college, why he does the work he does, he even told me how he met his wife. We talked about my own studies, intellectual curiosities, and some of the research I was currently working on. It was an inspirational car ride, one that influenced the direction of a lot of the research I did that semester, along with many of the things I write on this blog.
It's great that that guy stood up for what was right, but to try to piggy back on a very significant and painful part of AA history to sing the praises of a white guy who did the right things is… missing the point. It's great he did that. It's awesome, but he doesn't get a cookie. Why is it so hard for people to understand that you don't get applause for being a decent person?
I don't care if he goes around speaking to large audiences, it's the fact that he has become more than just a spokesperson on white privilege and that he feels he can also become a spokesperson for Black America, as well. I don't have any inner-conflicts being upset when people ask Tim Wise to speak on national television over issues of race when there is a sea of well qualified black scholars who can say the same things Tim says, if not better.
My words to Tim Wise: Black-America could use a few white allies, but we don't need white leaders attempting to claim some sort of moral medal for doing what every human being should be expected to do: the right thing.

Listen: Secretary, FLU, Alex discussed on Bill Cunningham
"Now secretary Alex eight guards the secretary health and Human Services he's one of those individuals up with the trump store on a regular basis and secretary agar welcome again to the bill Cunningham shown Mr secretary how are you bill it's great to be with you in your listeners thanks for having me let's talk about some issues and this morning I had a commentator talk about how this is different no one goes on ventilators when they have a cold or the flu as you may know my wife the people's judge about a month ago at a terrible flu it was awful took her to the hospital you'll be fine go home and like the avian flu and respirator not used or ventilators can you tell the American people why this particular a corona virus is fundamentally different than all these other flus that seemingly have killed a lot more people yes so the flu does kill you said thirty to sixty thousand people every year but that's I hate to say it but almost built into how we think about health care every year with the annual flu cycle this virus the novel coronavirus it particularly is very severe at a ha a higher Patel the rate among the elderly as well as those who are medically compromised and and so you do have people on blue that are in those categories who might need to get on a ventilator also in intensive care but with the covert nineteen virus you will see you you'll see people who have to go in the sense of care about three percent worldwide need intensive care and about half of those end up needing a ventilator is what we say and so if if it's true it's a seemingly is true that the great majority of American people I would think over ninety nine percent because if one percent of the American people would die that'd be about three point three million right now it's about twelve thirteen hundred and so assuming everyone says it's true that well over ninety nine maybe ninety nine point nine nine percent of the American people will be unaffected by this why is this thing morphed into a new year economic depressive condition when it's a medical problem that the leaders have now morphed into an economic problem well why can't we saw both at the same time well that's what president trump is trying to do with his leadership is the balance how do you prevent the spread here so that it doesn't become something where where we lose so many Americans to finality but balance that against the economic impacts and so that's why he's had this fifteen days the slow the spread to try to tamp this down and that's why just yesterday in a letter to governors he's talked about moving to a much more county by county approach that is based on the data we have from really the I think the envy of the world this point six hundred thousand people tested the U. S. were adding about sixty five thousand a day to give really good data that will let the president give guidance to states and local governments on on how they could be very measured in their approach is more extreme where you're in a hot zone in more measured and and looser in areas perhaps that are not stoplight about red green and yellow well I don't like the idea it's funny you say that bill with which we've actually talked about exactly that to me you're getting it built New York city's red Cincinnati Ohio northern Kentucky is green and maybe Miami Florida is yellow and so here in little Cincinnati you know how many deaths we've had from this I don't know how many of you had zero well thank god thank god I want to keep it that way me too I'm I'm not diminishing what people are saying about living and dying but normally I like to and twenty seventeen twenty eighteen according to wikipedia they're never wrong about eighty thousand human beings died in the United States of America what the terrible seventeen and eighteen ten years ago what what the what the other flew under Obama according to found G. about thirty five thousand died three hundred thousand or hospitalized we're not even close to those numbers and because spring is you know April first as one on Wednesday we're not even close to those numbers so how come you're treating us differently than we treat other flus that seemingly have must worse results why well you know build a really good question it's on the president's talked about is just the the annual flu alone as you said thirty to sixty thousand people can die every year from that it is something that's almost built into our healthcare and our own societies expectations that that does happen every year I think that the reason the novel coronavirus has people more on alert is the fact that it's highly contagious it's on top of that those are additional people who will suffer and potentially die if we don't take action and we don't have the tools we have with the flu to deal with the flu we lose thirty to sixty thousand with a vaccine and with therapeutics and so here we don't have a vaccine we don't yet have therapeutics and so that's one of the reasons that makes this particularly frightening to to us is our health care system is overwhelming that capacity no we don't see we don't see health systems overwhelmed as we've seen in Italy by the flu we when you add this on top of specially is restored the tail end of the flu season there is a very real concern about how do we push this off how do we mitigate it so that we don't overwhelm our system you know I saw doctor Deborah bricks yesterday and I I Burton and I think she's doing a great job and she said that if we had the same numbers of a early that be approximately fifty thousand Americans would be dead right now and I don't want to diminish anyone's death if your dad mom dad your mother's dad my sister that's a big deal but none the less we need it we need a solution that's commensurate with the problem do you see a circumstance in the years ahead and I think many in the media is rooting for something terrible to happen CNN is not the cable news network that the cable opinion network C. O. N. but nonetheless have your opinion that's fine but do you see a circumstance based all that's happened the past three weeks that America we have the same kind of numbers as Italy which should mean about fifty two hundred thousand Americans that is that is not probable well it's hard to predict that it will when you're dealing with infectious disease right now New York is the one that's most hot in the close is looking to Italy but of course they're also fairly late in taking very active community mitigation steps to to basically social distancing people people from each other and spreading that disease in addition though you know you're you're raising really good points and one of them you raised was we're we're getting towards spring and warmer weather and most respiratory illnesses we can't we don't know for sure it'll be the case with this one but most respiratory illnesses that spread by droplets tend to be less contagious and how and and go into a more of a dormant state in warmer weather part of it just because we get outside and we naturally social distance from each other and there's less less spreading so the president's goal is how can we push the impact off in the United States prevent more New York than the United States hopefully get to that warmer weather hopefully get some more of a dormant phase buyer sells time as we work to bring therapeutics and vaccines to the market so that if we do face another wave in the fall that will be better prepared and have have been even more defenses than just shutting things down and social distancing during early about two minutes remaining out what is heard mentality my producer Tony Bender is thinking about cows and sheep and things like that herd mentality what is heard mentality yeah build up that has a great quest I think what he's referring to is herd immunity at some point and we see this like with measles at some point if enough of us whether by vaccine or having had a disease body that fight against it in our system we can't be carriers and we can't spread it to other people and basically the the value of the the virus can't get any hosts and humans and spread around anymore that was that sixty seventy eighty percent being in impacted at some point it basically can die off because the north people have immunity to it while we're not there yet but that's certainly something that folks have talked about is that with the virus like this maybe you get to the point of actually where you have heard of unity we'll have to see you know this novel coronavirus we think it's a pretty stable virus that's what that Burke's Dr mercy mention has said it seems to be a fairly stable one that unlike the flu won't change each year but will have to say that that the data is going to show it now can you relate anything about the president's phone call last night with the prime minister of communist red China president G. anything you can relate to they they were on the I saw some of the president's tweets the the conference went well of course there I don't know if you're legally responsible I'm an attorney I've been in the AG's office I would think there's some liability there because of the negligent behavior but can you relate anything relative to what the president agreed to with the communist red China last night I can't because I wasn't on the call and I've not yet spoken to the president this morning so I haven't gotten a download on that call yet except what I've seen in media reports so far well I would say this Mister secretary keep hope alive at some point the light at the end of the tunnel that the media criticizes will occur warm weather the Reds opening day was yesterday and it didn't happen yesterday was about seventy four degrees in Cincinnati we're bursting at the seams seems to get back to work and red yellow and green to may make some sense the media won't like it because it may be a success for the president but I wish you and yours nothing but the best and god bless you and god bless America thank you bill Mr secretary thank you let's continue with more the point is herd immunity takes place let me explain this even even a tiny battery might be able to understand let's say a line of ten people the first person catches the coronavirus and it's very early it's bad and so his body doesn't react to it puts out a few antibodies but not too many because it doesn't recognize it and then he sheds virus generally in droplets or spread or mucus something a character the second person catches and the second person's body size I don't recognize that and so he begins the process of fighting it off when the lungs fill up and he puts out antibodies that don't do the job then he passes on to the third person and the fourth person and the tenth person and the five hundred person each time it's passed on there's a less very own strain this being passed because each person has an anybody working it doesn't succeed in stopping it so by the time you get done hundreds of thousands of people that have been exposed to it you're not sick anymore very is that similar to the measles and what some others wrongfully have measles parties and which they kid doesn't have measles yet which is a virus they get the kids to gathering and they give each other measles so you have a less virulent strain otherwise you would get that later in life you have a complete immunity to it so that is what herd immunity is and so the longer these things go the less very what they become and when they come back for a second wave of the modern world we're gonna have therapies were gonna have vaccines are gonna other stuff to knock it down to beat it beat it down my first question to secretary Alexander Hagar of health and Human Services is that the flu does kill thirty to fifty thousand Americans every year I'm willing to bet you a hot fudge sundae from UT half that number were not even close approach but by this particular virus today as of noon it was twelve hundred and seven twelve hundred and seven we're never going to get the forty to fifty thousand so my point is let's do what the medical issues that we always deal with and on the other side of the coin let's get back to work you please not more than ninety nine point nine percent of the American people will be completely unaffected by this and if they're not affected it would mean ninety nine point nine nine percent would be about three hundred and thirty thousand people would die that ain't gonna happen so how come we took a medical issue that is a bad one that we can deal with and more fit into an economic issue that is collapsing the American economy and the media is driving this argument in this debate because it fits their agenda of scaring the crap out of you so you listen or watch more and secondly if it's an agenda to get rid of trump that's what's behind this well let's continue later on we may have a real life survivor of the coronavirus wanted Tony benders buddies or Sir it is a live in well off I think is a former marathon runner former navy seal healthy as a horse but none the less is doing quite well."

about fifty two hundred thousand Americans that is that is not probable well it's hard to predict that it will when you're dealing with infectious disease right now New York is the one that's most hot in the close is looking to Italy but of course they're also fairly late in taking very active community mitigation steps to to basically social distancing people people from each other and spreading that disease in addition though you know you're you're raising really good points and one of them you raised was we're we're getting towards spring and warmer weather and most respiratory illnesses we can't we don't know for sure it'll be the case with this one but most respiratory illnesses that spread by droplets tend to be less contagious and how and and go into a more of a dormant state in warmer weather part of it just because we get outside and we naturally social distance from each other and there's less less spreading so the president's goal is how can we push the impact off in the United States prevent more New York than the United States hopefully get to that warmer weather hopefully get some more of a dormant phase buyer sells time as we work to bring therapeutics and vaccines to the market so that if we do face another wave in the fall that will be better prepared and have have been even more defenses than just shutting things down and social distancing during early about two minutes remaining out what is heard mentality my producer Tony Bender is thinking about cows and sheep and things like that herd mentality what is heard mentality yeah build up that has a great quest I think what he's referring to is herd immunity at some point and we see this like with measles at some point if enough of us whether by vaccine or having had a disease body that fight against it in our system we can't be carriers and we can't spread it to other people and basically the the value of the the virus can't get any hosts and humans and spread around anymore that was that sixty seventy eighty percent being in impacted at some point it basically can die off because the north people have immunity to it while we're not there yet but that's certainly something that folks have talked about is that with the virus like this maybe you get to the point of actually where you have heard of unity we'll have to see you know this novel coronavirus we think it's a pretty stable virus that's what that Burke's Dr mercy mention has said it seems to be a fairly stable one that unlike the flu won't change each year but will have to say that that the data is going to show it now can you relate anything about the president's phone call last night with the prime minister of communist red China president G. anything you can relate to they they were on the I saw some of the president's tweets the the conference went well of course there I don't know if you're legally responsible I'm an attorney I've been in the AG's office I would think there's some liability there because of the negligent behavior but can you relate anything relative to what the president agreed to with the communist red China last night I can't because I wasn't on the call and I've not yet spoken to the president this morning so I haven't gotten a download on that call yet except what I've seen in media reports so far well I would say this Mister secretary keep hope alive at some point the light at the end of the tunnel that the media criticizes will occur warm weather the Reds opening day was yesterday and it didn't happen yesterday was about seventy four degrees in Cincinnati we're bursting at the seams seems to get back to work and red yellow and green to may make some sense the media won't like it because it may be a success for the president but I wish you and yours nothing but the best and god bless you and god bless America thank you bill Mr secretary thank you let's continue with more the point is herd immunity takes place let me explain this even even a tiny battery might be able to understand let's say a line of ten people the first person catches the coronavirus and it's very early it's bad and so his body doesn't react to it puts out a few antibodies but not too many because it doesn't recognize it and then he sheds virus generally in droplets or spread or mucus something a character the second person catches and the second person's body size I don't recognize that and so he begins the process of fighting it off when the lungs fill up and he puts out antibodies that don't do the job then he passes on to the third person and the fourth person and the tenth person and the five hundred person each time it's passed on there's a less very own strain this being passed because each person has an anybody working it doesn't succeed in stopping it so by the time you get done hundreds of thousands of people that have been exposed to it you're not sick anymore very is that similar to the measles and what some others wrongfully have measles parties and which they kid doesn't have measles yet which is a virus they get the kids to gathering and they give each other measles so you have a less virulent strain otherwise you would get that later in life you have a complete immunity to it so that is what herd immunity is and so the longer these things go the less very what they become and when they come back for a second wave of the modern world we're gonna have therapies were gonna have vaccines are gonna other stuff to knock it down to beat it beat it down my first question to secretary Alexander Hagar of health and Human Services is that the flu does kill thirty to fifty thousand Americans every year I'm willing to bet you a hot fudge sundae from UT half that number were not even close approach but by this particular virus today as of noon it was twelve hundred and seven twelve hundred and seven we're never going to get the forty to fifty thousand so my point is let's do what the medical issues that we always deal with and on the other side of the coin let's get back to work you please not more than ninety nine point nine percent of the American people will be completely unaffected by this and if they're not affected it would mean ninety nine point nine nine percent would be about three hundred and thirty thousand people would die that ain't gonna happen so how come we took a medical issue that is a bad one that we can deal with and more fit into an economic issue that is collapsing the American economy and the media is driving this argument in this debate because it fits their agenda of scaring the crap out of you so you listen or watch more and secondly if it's an agenda to get rid of trump that's what's behind this well let's continue later on we may have a real life survivor of the coronavirus wanted Tony benders buddies or Sir it is a live in well off I think is a former marathon runner former navy seal healthy as a horse but none the less is doing quite well.

I really want to like Sleepy Hollow. And it's not like I don't like it, I do, it's just not Beetlejuice or Edward Scissorhands. Hell, it's not even Sweeney Todd. But it does have a lot of good things going for it. I love all the shots in the woods. However Burton got that aesthetic from those woods it's amazing. I'm assuming those are sets, but if those woods actually exist that wood (haha, get it?) be scary as fuck. There's always mist in the background and you never know what's going to come out from behind it. Those moments of Ichabod Crane exploring the woods are definitely my favorite part of this film. The entire look of the movie is amazing.
The only scene that stands out is when Crane finds the witch in her little witch cottage. That whole scene is fun and spooky and I wish there was more of that in this movie.
I would say there are two big problems with this film. The first is that the story is just a little too convoluted to really have an impact. Too much is going on in terms of why did who kill who, who's baby is who's, and why did they do this when, etc. It all takes away from the meat of what is fun about Sleepy Hollow. The second problem is that the scenes with the Headless Horseman get decreasingly gruesome. It should be the other way around (obviously). Really to make this movie work would be to make the killings mean something to the audience, which they never do, but they would have needed to focus more on the people of the town rather than the "who dunnit" which they focus on.
Maybe they could have had the first act getting to know the town so you actually care that these people's heads are getting cut off! Also in the original short story Ichabod Crane is a schoolmaster and in this version he is a homicide detective. A schoolmaster coming to a town, getting to know everyone, and then having heads roll is way scarier than a homicide detective story, just saying.

Let me start with yes, that is a picture of a werewolf giving you the bird. No joke, the film actually flicks you off for being such a sucker and watching this movie.
The idea of two siblings (one being the typical nerdy high school loser and the other being an uptight…yeah just uptight) both getting bit by a werewolf and both turning into werewolves together could possibly be a fun horror film premise. Unfortunately, this movie is so riddled with clichés it's a joke. My grandmother could literally write a better script, seriously, she's actually a pretty talented artist with crazy-ass ideas. I find it dumbfounding how the two guys who brought us Scream could come up with this piece of averageness. There is really no reason to watch this movie as there are several other better versions of the werewolf myth out there on film with the tops being An American Werewolf in London (1981).

Has the earth moved beneath your feet lately? When I checked the USGS site this week, there were 935 earthquakes recorded for the past eight days in the 48 conterminous states, Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico. Those earthquakes in the conterminous (great word!) states occurred from California to Massachusetts.
The 2012 Great ShakeOuts begin in February with the Great Central U.S. ShakeOut. On February 7, more than one million people will participate in the ShakeOut. Other states, British Columbia, Guam, and New Zealand will hold their ShakeOut events later in the year. Regardless of when the event is held, all have a common message. When you feel that first jolt, immediately Drop, Cover and Hold On.
What can you do to help your communities?
If you live in Oklahoma, Missouri, Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Tennessee, Mississippi, or Alabama, encourage your audiences to participate in the Great Central U.S. ShakeOut— it is free and open to the general public.
Teach audiences how they can become resilient and resistant to earthquakes. Youth groups can focus on science (what causes earthquakes) and staying safe during an earthquake. Adults can be shown how to taking steps to protect property and homes from an earthquake can actually be good practice for normal times.
Partner with EMA (select your state and drill down to find the local office) or Public Safety department to host an earthquake drill.
Model good preparedness practices. Make sure your home, office, family and colleages know the drill and are prepared.


Wagner Metals has been helping clients across Ohio, Indiana, and Michigan with their roofing and remodeling projects for over 10 years and we are thankful for their kind words.
Wagner Metals and Roofing did a very professional job, the crew was very friendly, they cleaned up each day, we ran into more problems and costs and they handled the job very timely. I would recommend this company for any work you need done.
I have been ordering from Wagner for many years. They always ship promptly and the quality is very good. Recently I have worked with their fabrication department on a project and they shipped us some fabricated rails. They did a fantastic job. The lady that helped me on this project was very good at her job and helpful.
Although I do not have a roof from them. If I needed one I would call. I drove by a location that had one of their trucks and workers. I watched a guy pick up around the yard and the others appeared to by working hard. I was impressed.
Wagner Metal Roofing is very professional. Their work is AAA+++. I would highly recommend them.
I just want to thank Wagner Metals for the excellent job they did !! I hired them to put on a new roof, gutters, gutter guards and a new driveway that I had them make wider. It all went like clockwork! The entire project was completed very timely, professional and cleaned up fantastic and they were more competitive than two other contractors . I am very proud of the way it improved the appearance of our home. Thanks Wagner Metals.
Very professional! Got the job done quickly and I still love it!!
Mr Wagner and his skilled construction team did a nice job of assessing my roof leak, pricing me a fair quote in a timely manner and performing a professional repair to my roof. I inspected their work and it was up to my expectations.


Once a quiet fishing village, the city of Cancun, meaning "golden snake" in Mayan, exploded in the 1970s into the well- known popular vacation destination many know today. This world-class resort town along Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula doesn't fall short on its promises of white powdery beaches, endless ocean and all the sun you can soak up in this tropical paradise. It may be commercialized, but the allure hasn't changed a bit. After a few days in the transparent turquoise waters, you'll see the secret is still all about the silky Caribbean Sea--and the beach.
For a pristine, secluded tropical vacation spot, head to the Moon Palace Resort in Cancun, Mexico. While nestled between nearly 2,000 feet of white sandy beach and 123 acres of tropical foliage, guests enjoy private balconies, ocean views, paddle boating, diving, snorkeling, kayaking and even a signature golf course by Jack Nicklaus, Cancun-Riviera Maya golf course. Spend time at any of the 14 restaurants or eight outdoor pools, each winding its way along the beach, with swim-up bars. Or, have the hotel arrange for a day trip to nearby Xel-Ha, a water-themed eco-park centered around a natural lagoon where you can spend the day swimming with the dolphins or just drifting through the jungle down a lazy river in an inner tube.
As of February 2010, rates start at $220 a night.
Just about 40 minutes south of Cancun is the Allegro Resort Playacar. Crystal clear water, lush vegetation and white sand beaches make it an idyllic spot for windsurfing, sailing and snorkeling in a tropical paradise. This all-inclusive resort boasts unlimited food and drinks at four restaurants and four bars. On site there's also a disco, three swimming pools, two illuminated tennis courts, volleyball, a variety of water sports, including sailing, snorkeling and boogie boarding, a giant chessboard, and a host of other daily planned activities by the pool and beach, plus nightly entertainment. If all that's not enough to keep you occupied, this beachfront resort is in close proximity of the colorful town of Playa del Carmen, full of shopping, restaurants and lively nightlife.
As of 2010, nightly rates begin at $200.
Among 32 acres of landscaped tropical gardens stands the pyramidal shaped Grand Oasis Resort. The three buildings comprising the resort complex located in the heart of Cancun's hotel zone play host to each guest's tropical island holiday dream with abundant waterfalls, gardens, a solarium, and plenty of ocean and lagoon views. Nine restaurants and three bars afford plenty of culinary options for guests in between enjoying the resort's spa, golf course or any number of water sports from diving to jet skis. For a cultural aside, guests can also have the hotel arrange a day trip to the nearby legendary Mayan ruins of Tulum and Chichen-Itza along the Mayan Riviera.
Nightly rates start from approximately $150.

1 MBA Programs in Taipei, Taiwan 2023
Taiwan, officially the Republic of China, is a state in East Asia and the first constitutional republic in Asia. Taiwan has several good universities, many of which have exchange agreements with foreign universities, and these are a good way to experience life in Taiwan.


With the increasing number of smartphone penetration, mining smartphone data that make smartphone smarter became a top research area, there are a lot of event data which we can use to predict behavior or detect anomalies. The privacy disclosure caused by stolen or lost phones becomes an increasingly difficult problem that cannot be ignored. So we design an anomaly detection system by mining patterns to detect stolen phones. We use a pattern mining algorithm to abstract patterns from user past behavior, then construct a personalized model and use a scoring function and threshold setting strategy to detect stolen events. Moreover, we apply our system to a data set from MIT Real Mining Project. Experimental results show that our system can detect 87% stolen events with 0.009 false positive rate on the average.

Q: Socket works on command line but fails on Swing This question is a follow-up to this one:
BufferedReader readLine method hangs and block program
I have now a server and a client that runs smoothly, but then I tried to implement a GUI interface using swing. Using the same code, the socket constructor fails.
My class is like this:
public class TCPClient {

    public BufferedWriter ostream = null;
    public BufferedReader istream = null;
    public TCPClient(String host, String port) throws UnknownHostException {
    InetAddress ip = InetAddress.getByName(host);

    try {
        Socket socket = new Socket(host, Integer.parseInt(port));

        ostream = new BufferedWriter(socket.getOutputStream());
        istream = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(socket.getInputStream()));

    } catch (IOException ex) {
        Logger.getLogger(TCPClient.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
    }

}

This code works perfectly when calling from a main function. In swing, I have a button that calls the following method:
private void enviarMsgTCP() throws IOException {
    screenOutput.append("Sent:\n" + mensagem.getText() + "\n");
    if (client == null){
        try {
            client = new TCPClient(destIp.getText(), port.getText());
        } catch (UnknownHostException ex) {
            Logger.getLogger(GUI.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
            saidaTexto.append("Não foi possível se conectar ao host.\n");
        }
    }

Using this code, the line below (in TCPClient) throws an exception:
Socket socket = new Socket(host, Integer.parseInt(port));

The exception stacktrace:
21/10/2011 21:44:42 cliente.ClienteTCP <init>
GRAVE: null
java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect

What can it be?
thx again

A: Connection refused means nothing is listening at the IP:port you specified when connecting.
How come you still have the DataOutputStream?

'We are creating history,' Momis tells new Bougainville MPs
Is China engaged in 'debt-trap diplomacy' in the Pacific region?
$3 billion & new Pacific embassies as Oz responds to China
Scott Morrison - ""Australia cannot take its influence in the southwest Pacific for granted; and sadly I think too often we have"
NOOSA – When Australia's prime minister Scott Morrison makes his way from the RAAF aircraft to his accommodation in Port Moresby next week, he's bound to notice the visual tributes (some of them lurid) to China.
But at least he'll have the satisfaction of knowing that, in his short period in office so far, he's taken three big steps to address China's well-established strategy to extend its influence into Papua New Guinea and the Pacific.
Last week he got a deal with the PNG government to establish a joint naval base on Manus; he currently has ministers in China for talks after a two year 'freeze'; and yesterday he made a major announcement about what he termed Australia's Pacific 'family' and threw in $3 billion worth of gifts as a sweetener.
To wit, five new diplomatic posts, a $2 billion fund to support infrastructure projects in the Pacific, offering both grants and loans, and a $1 billion export financing facility "to support investments in the region which have a broad national benefit for Australia".
More boomerangs.
The announcement, tellingly made before troops at a military base in north Queensland, was designed to balance China's increasing influence in the region
The infrastructure fund (echoing an initiative announced earlier by Australia's
opposition Labor Party) was the main plank of what Morrison referred to
as Australia's 'step up' in the region.
"An insult to the people of PNG flying the country's sovereign flag alongside a foreign state, China, and underneath APEC's flag! The pride and indebtedness of the political leaders seems to blur the very consciousness of being sovereign. #dangerous path" - Bal Kama
This will also include the establishment of new diplomatic outposts in Palau, the Marshall Islands, French Polynesia, Niue and the Cook Islands. (The last two not previously considered significant strategic assets but indicating that no stone was left unturned.)
"Australia cannot take its influence in the Southwest Pacific for granted; and sadly I think too often we have," Morrison said in a speech at Lavarack Army base in Townsville.
"This is our patch; this is our part of the world," he said. "This is where we have special responsibilities - always have, always will. We have their back and they have ours."
As a statement, it was long overdue, made a heroic claim to mutuality and neglected the one issue that most Pacific islands nations want to hear about – action on climate change, where Australia's track record has been, and remains, poor and even retrograde.
As 'Pacific islandist' Nick Howlett (@specificisland) observed on Twitter: "A 'Pacific reset' is in now in play on both sides of the Tasman, driven by fear of Chinese power.
"This is self-interest: no change in policy has been announced by New Zealand or Australia on what the Pacific region has itself identified as its 'greatest threat', climate change."
Katherine Murphy, political editor of Guardian Australia, wrote, "Australia has been executing a strategic pivot to the Pacific both under Malcolm Turnbull and Morrison to try and hold out a soft power offensive by China in the region, executed predominately through loans and infrastructure projects delivered to the island nations."
Under the Morrison plan, timed to be announced on the eve of next week's APEC summit in Port Moresby, there are also security commitments for the Pacific including an Australian defence force mobile training team, more navy deployments, annual meetings between defence, police and border security commanders and the creation of a Pacific faculty at the Australian Institute of Police Management.
"Australia has an abiding interest in a southwest Pacific that is secure strategically, stable economically and sovereign politically," Morrison said. "This is not just our region, or our neighbourhood. It's our home."
A home under threat - and not just from China.
Morrison's failure to mention climate change and rising sea levels already gnawing at the islands of the Pacific spoke louder than any of his words about 'family'.
Spot on Gabriel.
Not only would it make a lot of PNGns happy but it would also be a statement by Australia about how it regards PNG people.
Get climate change and visas right and then concentrate on the other stuff like military bases.
It also intrigues me that Australia wants to set up diplomatic posts in Niue and the Cook Islands.
That said, can I put my hand up for the Cooks?
Posted by: Philip Fitzpatrick | 09 November 2018 at 03:02 PM
No matter what Australia's intentions are in the Pacific vis a vis China's growing influence in the region, it must first get the small things right.
Our citizens currently receive visas on arrival for 30 days in Hong Kong, Singapore, Indonesia and the Philippines. This privilege is however denied them in Australia.
Fix this up first if you want to be a true friend of PNG. Maski maus wara.
