Gay Guide Denmark
Denmark is a very open and tolerant country, even more so than its also very liberal Scandinavian neighbours. To be a bit "different" has almost been a tradition and is simply part of life for the Danes - you take a lot of things with a lot of humour. This attitude is also reflected in the laws: The national association for gays and lesbians (LBL) was founded in 1948, was the first organisation of its kind and enforced anti-discrimination laws early on. In 1989, Denmark was the first country in the world to introduce same-sex partnerships, and gradually these registered partnerships were put on an equal footing with marriage until the rights were fully equal - including adoption. In 2012, the newly elected Prime Minister Helle Thorning-Schmidt legalised gay marriage and became the first Danish Prime Minister to take part in the Copenhagen Pride Parade. The age of consent is 15. Denmark is one of the few countries in the world where the possession of poppers is prohibited and can be punished by a fine. Most homosexual visitors usually go to Copenhagen, which is an obvious choice due to the lively gay scene and the relaxed atmosphere. In addition to the cities, Denmark also has endless coastline that invites you to relax and long walks This interesting country is defenitely worth a visit and its friendly and helpful inhabitants, who always meet you with a good-natured wink.

Late last night unified middleweight champion, Gennady Golovkin was granted an exception to his mandatory defense in order to face Vanes Martirosyan. But there is a catch and quite a big one. Yes, the IBF has granted Golovkin an exception. However, if he wants to keep his IBF belt his next defense of the title MUST come against the hard-hitting, Sergey Derevyanchenko.
Of course, we all know Golovkin was supposed to be fighting Canelo Alvarez on May 5th. But a failed drugs test and suspension have rendered that fight impossible to make until the 15th September at least. The Mexican superstar is mandatory for the WBC middleweight crown. Once this fight was out of the way, Derevyanchenko's team were to press hard for this fight as the IBF was up next in the rotation system used by the sanctioning bodies to determine the order of mandatory bouts when there is a unified champion.
The IBF COULD have stripped Golovkin for fighting Martirosyan. They refused to sanction the bout as he was coming up from super-welterweight and coming off of a loss. However, Golovkins promoter, Tom Loeffler had the right to seek out an exception and he paid the twenty thousand USD for the governing body to consider it.
So to make it clear to you all these are the terms of his exception.
If Golovkin does decide to fight Canelo on his first fight back after his suspension is lifted on August 17th. Golovkin will be stripped of his IBF World title. Given that it has been Golovkin's plan to become undisputed middleweight champion, it seems likely he may well fight Derevyanchenko next, and the boxing world and Billy Joe Saunders will have to wait a little longer for a fight for the undisputed crown.

Transformations (1988)
AKA Alien Transformations
Starring Rex Smith, Lisa Langlois, Patrick Macnee, Christopher Neame, Michael Hennessy, Cec Verrell, Benito Stefanelli, Donald Hodson, Pamela Prati, Ann Margaret Hughes, Loredana Romito
Directed by Jay Kamen
Expectations: Moderate, but it's '80s so it'll have cool FX work, right?
I often say, "The future is now," because I'm so amazed with technology and how different things have become since my youth. But now I feel cheated because in the version of the future shown in Transformations, everyone drinks out of glasses with neato twisty straws built into them. It's really quite impressive, but like any great advancement for humanity such as this, we must also deal with the ever increasing dangers of the world. And in this version of the future, humanity's greatest threat is a ferocious alien demon STD that transforms its host into a gooey, hairy monstrosity that conveniently has the power to transform itself into an object of desire to lure its next victim into bed.
This is exactly what happens to our main character, a rollicking space smuggler named Han Solo Wolfgang Shadduck (Rex Smith), but you can call him Wolf. He's been flying around the galaxy alone for far too long, and it's his birthday. His friends from Earth have sent a video message and apparently planted a present on-board before he left. They won't tell him where it is, instead they just scream "TREASURE HUNT!" and laugh. So when a beautiful woman appears at his cabin door, he assumes she's his StripperGram present, ignoring all logic and assuming she's been hiding in a cargo locker surviving on nutritional paste all this time. But whatever, this is a horror movie, and what's a horror movie without a dumb character doing something dumb to allow the audience to have some horrific fun?

Expectations: Moderate. I'm excited for this, but I don't think it'll be good.
Spellcaster is yet another casualty of the fall of Empire Pictures. Like Robot Jox before it, Spellcaster's fate hung in limbo for many years before it finally saw release. The film was originally produced in 1988 and it shows, with the cheesy 80s music video opening the film being the first clue. So don't be surprised when queuing this up, it never once feels like a horror film from 1992. Four years may not seem like a lot, but in the world of horror films, the differences are night and day.
Spellcaster follows the traditional horror film "people stuck in a location" formula, with these people being brought together by a TV station's prize giveaway of a trip to an Italian castle and a chance to win a million dollars! The characters here are fun for the most part which counts for a lot, but there's not enough development of any of them to make you care about the proceedings.

10tons is at it again with a brand new game on the PlayStation 4 entitled, Spellspire. This is sort of an action game, but instead of button mashing your way through hordes of enemies, you'll instead be spelling your way to victory.
In Spellspire the player assumes the role of a tiny wizard making his way to the top of a 100 level tower. The player picks letters from a grid of ten letters to spell words. Valid words are blasted out of the wizard's wand as spells. The longer the word, the bigger the blast. Slain monsters drop gold and loot, which is traded in between levels for more potent wands, hats and robes with magical special effects and abilities.
The PS4 version of the game isn't quite out yet and will hit PSN Store on May 23rd at $9.99. The game is Crossbuy so you'll also be able to load this up on your PS Vita for free. Until then, enjoy the first 10 floors of gameplay below.

Now reading: Jack Guinness
Jack Guinness
Jack Guinness is a Model, Writer, Founder of The Queer Bible and Contributing Editor of GQ.
I met Jack Guinness at Harry's Bar behind Harrods, with the model having just done a talk for the Harrods staff about issues surrounding, and facing the LGBTQIA+ community in 2020. "I left a couple of them misty eyed, which is a plus!" he laughs. Not a typical day at the office for your average model. But Jack is not your run of the mill clothes horse. "I went to Cambridge University, to study English literature, which is not something I often tell people, because no one wants a model who can read!" Jack is funny, very funny. "When I got scouted as a model, I had long hair and a beard, and there were only 2 models in the world with long hair and a beard, so if you wanted one, we had kind of cornered the market! It was also when the worldwide beard craze exploded....I feel kind of responsible for that! Really it was me and Jesus who popularised it."
Jack's graduation from New Faces, to mainboard, to special bookings happened with unprecedented speed. The key? "I was lucky to be there at that moment when it wasn't just traditional models being booked for jobs, it was an opening up of fashion, a kind of democratization of the industry. Before, there were gatekeepers of brands who said, 'you get to be the face of this brand', 'we want these type of people to be the people who represent our brand'." But as we all know, representation in fashion is evolving. Has Social Media played a part in this democratization of fashion? "Yes, What is really exciting about social media is that it gives the audience, the consumer a voice. So they can say, No, I want people who look like me. I want more diverse casting, I want to have different body shapes, I want to have different genders, I want to have gay people."
Jack Guinness quickly became synonymous with the UK men's fashion scene, building a reputation as a menswear expert with a classic look. "I really wanted to carve a niche for myself as someone who was really interested in tailoring, and heritage brands. I would stick to a blueprint". It worked, and soon he was working regularly with GQ and the British Fashion Council (The BFC). "For me, becoming aligned with the BFC was great.. I love encouraging new designers, I love nurturing young talent, but I also love our heritage brands. When it comes to menswear (and Basic Rights), he knows what he is talking about. What's really interesting about Basic Rights, and how I think men shop, and the way they dress, is that they want that Perfect Piece, it is about having a refined wardrobe. It is not about Fashion, which is constantly changing. It is about having that perfect Cuban Shirt, that perfect knit, that perfect pair of trousers. Find that perfect leather jacket, find that perfect t shirt, find that perfect pair of jeans, refine down your wardrobe, until you have just got those basic pieces that are perfect."
Jack's relationship with GQ allowed him to further explore writing and presenting, skills he has since capitalized on through his latest endeavor, The Queer Bible. At its heart, The Queer Bible is a collection of true stories, which aim to rewrite Queer people back into history. It is a curation of moving essays curated by Jack with the goal of connecting people within the LGBTQIA+ community, not only to the past, but also to honor each other in the present. How did the Queer Bible come about? " I remember watching the Oscars, and Sam Smith said that they were the first gay person to win an Oscar, and actually they weren't and the vitriol on twitter was horrific. Everyone was saying Sam should know their history. And I was like, wait a minute, I don't know my history. So I went online and I tried to find a resource that could teach me about LGBTQIA+ history and all the websites looked like they were made in the 90's. And I just thought, this is shit. The gay community is fabulous, and beautiuful and amazing and innovative, and there should be a space that reflects that. These stories should be told, and packaged together in a really exciting way that engages young people."
Guinness decided then and there that there was something he and his friends could do about it. By asking them to write about their Queer Heroes, The Queer bible became an homage to people like Alan Turing, Anne Lister and E. M Forster, historically important queer people whose 'queerness' was often downplayed, or eradicated entirely. "Gay people have always been part of the story, it is just that those stories haven't been told, either they have been hidden for peoples safety, or hidden because the authorities didn't want people to know that they [these heroes] were gay or trans. Or those histories had been erased completely. For example, people (the authorities) didn't want everyone to know that Alan Turing was a gay man. They tried to silence and erase stories that have always been there."
"So you relate to the emotion of the stories, and without realising it you are learning your gay history." Can we have an example? "I managed to track down Robert Mapplethorpe's ex, one of his ex's I think he had many, called David Crowland, and he wrote me a beautiful essay about getting really wasted, going to The Chelsea Hotel, and meeting a young photographer called Robert Mapplethorpe and his then girlfriend Patti Smith. David promptly steals Robert from Patti, leading Robert to create some of the most seminal works of queer art from the last century. So here's this bit of untold history, that if you know who Robert Mapplethorpe is, you're like oh fuck, I didn't know that story. And if you don't know who he is you've got this brilliant narrative that leads you into the history surrounding that story."
The Queer Bible also puts on events, showcases and workshops. Readers can connect with The Queer Bible in many different ways, including "through our Instagram, where we display works by queer artists, and we do a lot with photographic archives." Jack is creating a much-needed space where queer people can feel a sense of belonging.
We also talked about the monetisation of Pride, an annual celebration of the queer community whose festivities have picked up both sponsorships and branded marketing materials from huge corporations like Starbucks, Barclays and Levis. "Recently at Pride when I saw massive brands slapping rainbows on things I stopped and thought, what have they got to do with the LGBTQIA+ community? Then I actually realised that ...well alot of their employees are gay, or trans and you could look at it as people cashing in or you could say actually its really important that those people feel heard, and recognised [by the companies they work for].
So does Guinness approve of brands jumping on the Pride bandwagon, or floats? "As long as brands aren't just there for Pride, you know Gays aren't just for Pride, just like dogs aren't just for Christmas. As long as I feel like those interactions are meaningful and ongoing, then I don't have a problem with it. I was in New York for World Pride this last summer, and as capitalist and maybe commercial as it was to see every single bank, or food store having rainbow flags in it, as a gay kid who grew up in the 80's or 90's, where there was hardly any representation, to see all these mainstream corporations proudly asserting that, whether its lip service or not, they are associated in any way with the gay community, I found that incredibly moving. There is something to be said for visibility. Mainstreaming the marginalised is very important".
With the Queer Bible, and modelling, you would expect Jack to have his hands full, but he is about to take on more. "I have just been made a contributing editor at GQ, so i'm just working out what that relationship is going to look like, and we are working on some very exciting projects. So definitely more writing, definitely more on camera stuff. It's really great having been in front of the camera for so long but not being allowed to talk, actually now being able to show my personality. I finally get to show the English Literature degree off!! Now just try and shut me up!"

During the Great Depression in 1932, a group of enthusiastic folks formed an association to enjoy each others company while engaging in local, inexpensive outdoor recreational activities. Today, the Club is an incorporated, non-profit, all volunteer organization with one or two activities most weeks of the year. The Club, with over 130 members and 11 committees, is governed by a Board of Directors. Communication is accomplished through a monthly newsletter. The Club maintains a section of the Appalachian Trail and participates in the Mason-Dixon Trail System. Our purpose is to promote hiking and appropriate use of outdoor recreational assets. Our members include all kinds of people of all ages who share an interest in hiking and walking.


You might not be currently looking at an extensive engagement but have identified certain issues with your money and investments.
In that case, you can schedule a 30-minute phone consultation with me to discuss those key aspects of your money and investments. You can discuss any issues and seek guidance on your current investments as well as future course of action.
The fee for every 30 minute consultation is Rs. 1,000 (plus GST), payable in advance.
If you go ahead with one of the advisory services, this consultation fee can be adjusted against the service fee.
Please note that this service does not include any work outside the call.
I stumbled across Vipin's blogs only a month ago. My dad would often share links to his blogs in an attempt to keep my new-found interest in money alive. I am new to handling money and since my money is no longer in my bank where I liked to see it, I live with occasional pangs of uncertainty. So, I arranged a consult with Vipin. I needed an outsider's perspective on my money and my thoughts. And I got exactly what I wanted. Anybody who has had an education in finance can talk money. But what appealed to me was the simplicity of his ideas. Once you talk to him you will know that he is an expert on everything money!

This is like Triangle Pose, just imagine your lifted foot is pressed against the back wall. Your lower hip is externally rotated, your standing leg is engaged, your core is strong, and you can open up your heart and breathe. The extended leg is long and strong, the top thigh spins toward the space behind you, and your foot is actively flexed with toes spread.
Here are some classes featuring Half Moon Pose.
If you're like most people, you'll find life brings a lot of sweetness and ease, but also a fair amount of pain and difficulty! Of course the sweet part feels better, but the idea is not to get too attached to the ease part and too fearful of the tough stuff. Join Kate for a flow that's all about bringing you back to balance (you'll play with lots of balancing poses as you flow), and also includes hip, shoulder and hamstring opening.
When most people think of abs, they think of the six pack, otherwise known as the rectus abdominus, but those aren't the only abs in town! The obliques, located on the sides of the torso, are responsible for twisting and side bending and are just as important for stability, mobility and a healthy spine as the rectus abdominus. This practice will help you start to develop an awareness of how to use and strengthen your obliques in order to help you find more balance and stability in a variety of poses. Enjoy!


One day a young lady, who was very distraught, called to tell me that she was thinking about ending her life. I asked her why and she said it concerned her ex-husband and her two young daughters. He was threatening to take them away from her. She was fearful that this would happen and she would have nothing left to live for.
The best I could, I assured her that ending her life was not the answer and suggested that she release the fear concerning this, and to turn the Golden Key. I asked her to repeat these words, "There is nothing to fear. God is love and God is here." At first she was hesitant, but with encouragement, she spoke them. I asked her to speak them a few more times and each time she did, she became more relaxed and was soon feeling hopeful and peaceful.
Before we ended our conversation, she promised she would continue speaking these words, and assured me she would be all right. Later, I learned that she didn't lose her children and everything turned out better than she had hoped. This always happens when you turn the Golden Key.
Turning the Golden Key means to turn away from the problem and turn to God; to stop thinking about a difficulty and declare what you know God to be such as God is love, God is peace, God is wisdom, God is here. There is nothing to fear. God is love and God is here are Golden Key words.
This Week's Golden Key Positive Prayer: There is nothing to fear. God is love and God is here.
A Miracles Prayer Report. . .
A couple of weeks ago, I asked you to pray with me for my miracle which was to receive wisdom on earning extra income. This weekend, it happened. I've been seeing various quotes about "in every adversity there is a seed of opportunity". That was true for me, I was searching for ways to deal with an obstacle and I found a way to make money from it! As a matter of fact, I am seeing more and more ways to earn money since that answer "just clicked." God is good. It was like He turned the "switch" on in my head. I know prayer works and every time I request prayer from you, whatever the situation, it is resolved in an easy and relaxed manner. Thank you so much for your commitment to helping people fulfill their missions, accomplish their destinies, and overcome obstacles! Thanks and Have a Marvelous Day, – Margaret H.


Websites that are updated regularly can become more successful than static sites that do not offer new content, updated layouts or swapped images. There are a few reasons that Online Potential recommends to our Orlando clients to implement a content management system in order to establish and expedite regular website updates.
A CMS, or content management system, is useful web-based software that allows webmasters to perform a number of maintenance tasks on a website with ease. There are two parts to a CMS: the content management application (CMA) and the content delivery system (CDA).
With the content management application, web managers, even those with very limited expertise, can make changes and updates to content, images, videos and layout.
You can create new content, edit existing content and publish content with a few mouse clicks. Content publishing scheduling can be especially helpful for overnight updates or when you want an update to coincide with a sales promotion. At the predetermined time, your content will publish for you whether you're out of the office or even asleep.
Changing images can keep your website fresh and new to your visitors. With a content management system, these image swaps can be easy and fast and can be performed by whoever is managing your site without needing to know how to code.
The content delivery application is the portion that performs the actions you want to occur, such as the updates and content publishing to the site.
Content management systems provide you with the opportunity to manage your website in real time with all the tools you need in one place. Because these applications are most often web-based, you can have programming access to your site almost anywhere. This gives you more freedom to work and update whenever it fits your busy schedule. It's also optimal for those times when you spot a small error or if a feature stops working properly and you want to correct the error quickly before your site visitors notice.
For those business owners who are too busy or don't have the workforce available for managing their website, Online Potential is available to handle all the updates for you. With Online Potential taking care of your online promotions, changing advertisements and optimizing content for search engines, you're free to focus on what's important to you and your business without worrying about the web.
With increasingly busy schedules, it can be nearly impossible to keep track of every website update — new promotions, adjusting advertising to meet demands, blogs and online press releases. A content management system can automate some of these updates for you through it's scheduled publishing feature. But for all those other needs, it can be difficult to find time to make sure they happen without a hitch. That's why you should choose an Internet marketing and website management company like Online Potential. We'll keep track of posting new content to your site on a weekly basis while performing other maintenance for you.
Don't greet your consumers with outdated content. Keep your site up-to-date and ahead of your competition with the convenience of a content management system. With Online Potential monitoring your site, you'll be able to sit back and watch your business grow.

new behavioral health center proposed in colorado
With a recent report indicating that one in five adults in Larimer County, Colorado is in need of some kind of behavioral health care services, a move is on to build a new facility that would house such services.
Two years ago, a joint project between Larimer County and the City of Fort Collins asked voters to approve a .25 cents sales tax, the proceeds of which would go to build a mental health and substance abuse center.
That proposal was voted down by a 52 to 48 percent margin.
Now an effort is on once again to bring the same question to voters, an effort fueled to some degree by the spring release of the Mental Health and Substance Abuse Alliance of Larimer County report indicating that nearly 54,000 people in a county of more than 300,000 could have some form of mental illness.
To be jointly operated by Larimer County and Fort Collins, the proposed 60,000 square-foot center would most likely go up on a currently vacant 30-acre site near the intersection of South Taft Hill Road and Trilby Road, between Fort Collins and the city of Loveland.
It is thought that the facility would cost nearly $31 million to build, and upon completion, would have enough room to house 64 beds.
If approved by voters in November, the sales tax would be expected to generate between $15 and $16 million annually. Additional funding for both the construction of the facility and its operation would come from State of Colorado and federal sources.
The next step in the long-developing plan will see members of the Larimer County Board of Commissioners deciding whether to put the sales tax question on this fall's ballot.

PCLinuxOS, sovint abreujat PCLinuxOS és una distribució GNU / Linux, amb KDE com la seva interfície d'usuari per defecte. És un programari lliure sobre tot el sistema operatiu per a ordinadors personals destinats a la facilitat d'ús.

Història
El precursor de PCLinuxOS era un conjunt de paquets RPM creat per millorar les successives versions de Linux Mandrake (ara Mandriva Linux). Aquests paquets van ser creats per Bill Reynolds, més conegut com a empaquetador Texstar. Entre 2000 i 2003, va mantenir la seva Texstar font de paquets RPM en paral·lel amb el lloc PCLinuxOnline. En una entrevista, Reynolds va dir que va començar a PCLinuxOS "per donar sortida a [el seu desig] bogeria paquet de codi font sense haver de lidiar amb els egos, l'arrogància i la política."

L'octubre de 2003, Texstar creat una forquilla de Mandrake Linux 9.2. Treballant en estreta col·laboració amb el Projecte Live CD, Texstar ha desenvolupat des de llavors aquesta forquilla de forma independent en una distribució en tota regla. Els llançaments inicials van ser successivament numerats com "preestrenes": p5, P7, P8 fins p81a, després P9, p91, P92, p93 i.

PCLinuxOS 2007
Amb l'adveniment de PCLinuxOS 2007, PCLinuxOS va ser sobrepassada en Mandriva Linux 2007. Això implicava un canvi a un codi més modern, que requereix una instal·lació completa a aquesta versió. La nova versió apareix un nou aspecte, i construït en els efectes 3D. Un nou logotip va ser dissenyat també per a la nova versió, i es va incorporar a la pantalla d'arrencada. Una pantalla d'entrada nova va ser dissenyada, titulat "Dark". El final / PCLinuxOS oficial va ser llançada la versió 2007 el 2007.05.21.

L'última versió dels principals Live CD, PCLinuxOS 2009.2, va ser llançat el 30 de juny 2009. Les millores inclouen correccions d'errors, nous fons, sons, pantalla d'inici, i menor temps de posada en marxa. Serà l'últim concert PCLinuxOS CD a vaixell amb un entorn d'escriptori KDE 3, i l'últim dels PCLinuxOS 2007 compatible amb versions anteriors sèries

PCLinuxOS 2010
La versió 2010 del CD Live "va ser llançat el 19 d'abril de 2010 [4]. Inclou el nou KDE 4.4.2 SC, un nou tema gràfic i una nova versió del kernel de Linux (Kernel 2.6.32.11). És també la primera PCLinuxOS Live CD per incloure el suport d'arxius ext4 sistema. Aquesta versió requereix una instal·lació completa del sistema operatiu.

Actualitzat totes les sol·licituds de suport i les biblioteques des del repositori de programari que inclouen actualitzacions de seguretat i correccions d'errors.

Resum
PCLinuxOS es distribueix com un Live CD, que també es pot instal·lar una unitat de disc dur local o unitat flash USB. Versió 2009.1 proporciona un instal lador d'USB per crear un USB Live, on es pot de configuració de l'usuari i les dades personals guardats si ho desitja. Un Live USB de versions anteriors de PCLinuxOS es poden crear manualment o amb UNetbootin. Tot el CD es pot executar des de la memòria, assumint que el sistema té prou RAM. PCLinuxOS useu APT-RPM, a partir d'Advanced Packaging Tool (o APT), un sistema de gestió de paquets (originalment de la distribució Debian), juntament amb Synaptic Package Manager, un GUI per a APT, per tal d'afegir, eliminar o actualitzar paquets. Si no hi ha prou memòria a la màquina, i una connexió de xarxa activa, el Live CD pot actualitzar paquets. PCLinuxOS també està dissenyat per ser fàcil de remasteritzar després de la instal·lació, la creació de la mateixa Live CD personalitzat, utilitzant l'eina mklivecd.

Mandriva Linux
Tot i que conserva una semblant "look and feel" a Mandriva Linux, PCLinuxOS ha variat significativament. El codi va ser bifurcada oficialment de Mandrake 02/09 en un projecte independent el 2003. Després de tres anys de continu desenvolupament, els desenvolupadors es va aprofitar d'un major desenvolupament en (el nom) de Mandriva, i es bifurcava, el codi de nou a finals de 2006 per PCLinuxOS 2007.

PCLinuxOS manté el seu propi repositori de programari, disponible a través de l'Advanced Packaging Tool (APT) i el seu extrem davanter Synaptic, substituint completament urpmi de Mandriva. Això significa que una instal·lació pot actualitzar de manera permanent a les últimes versions dels paquets, per tant, renunciar a la necessitat de tornar a instal·lar tota la distribució en cada versió successiva. En les versions abans de 2007, a vegades és necessari realitzar una nova instal·lació.

Altres diferències inclouen el seu acord propi menú, els gràfics personalitzats, i conjunts d'icones.

PCLinuxOS llocs fent especial èmfasi en la informàtica d'escriptori, concentrant els seus esforços per a la llar o entorns de petites empreses, per tant, prestant menys atenció a altres més "tradicionals" usos, com un servidor, encara que la majoria dels paquets per a tasques de servidor estan disponibles.

Projectes
Hi ha diversos projectes comunitaris relacionats amb PCLinuxOS.

MiniMe
Mínima és un mínim "Live & Instal·lar" CD per a usuaris experimentats que desitgen afegir la seva pròpia selecció de paquets. PCLinuxOS 2008 "Minime" edició es va publicar el 01/07/2008.

PCLinuxOS Magazine
El projecte PCLinuxOS Magazine és una publicació gratuïta dirigida per la comunitat centrada en els usuaris de PCLinuxOS per MyPCLinuxOS. PCLinuxOS Magazine es publica en forma mensual. Tot el contingut de la publicació es demana a la base d'usuaris de PCLinuxOS.

Hyperuricemia is commonly associated with traditional risk factors such as dysglicemia, dyslipidemia, central obesity and abnormal blood pressure, i.e. the metabolic syndrome. Concordantly, recent studies have revived the controversy over the role of circulating uric acid, hyperuricemia, and gout as an independent prognostic factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. In this regard, different studies also evaluated the possible role of xanthine inhibitors in inducing blood pressure reduction, increment in flow-mediated dilation, and improved cardiovascular prognosis in various patient settings. The vast majority of these studies have been conducted with either allopurinol or its active metabolite oxypurinol, i.e. two purine-like non-selective inhibitors of xanthine oxidase. More recently, the role of uric acid as a risk factor for cardiovascular disease and the possible protective role exerted by reduction of hyperuricemia to normal level have been evaluated by the use of febuxostat, a selective, non purine-like xanthine oxidase inhibitor. In this review, we will report current evidence on hyperuricemia in cardiovascular disease. The value of uric acid as a biomarker and as a potential therapeutic target for tailored old and novel "cardiometabolic" treatments will be also discussed.

LITTLE ROCK, AR - A state representative under fire for rehoming his adopted daughters with another family has blamed lack of support from the Arkansas Department of Human Services as the reason the children were rehomed. According to DHS records, Harris has received more than $4 million in public funds from DHS programs through his preschool since 2010.
State Representative Justin Harris, R-West Fork, rehomed his children with another NWA family after claiming behavior issues made it unsafe for his other children to live with the girls. One of the girls was later molested by Eric Cameron Francis, the man Harris sent the girls to live with. Francis was convicted in late 2014. Harris claimed that DHS had threatened him with child abandonment charges and was not supportive in his efforts to deal with the girls' behavior issues.
Citing the privacy of the children involved, DHS has said it cannot comment on the adoption or the claims Harris has made. Other individuals who know the girls and had served as foster parents for them contest Harris's descriptions and say Harris thwarted their offers for help.
According to DHS, Harris has received more than $4,195,651 from public program funds for his Growing God's Kingdom preschool since 2010.
$945,580 from the Child Care Development Fund that helps pay for childcare for qualifying families.

So I just ordered a R-115sw and after doing some measurements it would probably work better for space issues if I had the R-112sw instead. If anyone has a R-112sw and wants to upgrade I would like to trade. If not, I'll do fine with the R-115sw and have to manage .
Anyways, your used R-112sw + $250 for my brand new sealed R-115sw. I am located in Southern California.

Die Namenlose (auch Namenlosbach und Lamelofe genannt, fälschlich gelegentlich namenloser Bach) ist ein 8,4 km langer, südöstlicher und orographisch rechter Zufluss der Neger im Hochsauerlandkreis in Nordrhein-Westfalen (Deutschland).

Geographie

Verlauf
Die Namenlose entspringt und verläuft in der Region Sauerland im Rothaargebirge und im Naturpark Sauerland-Rothaargebirge. Ihre Quelle liegt auf der Winterberger Hochfläche nahe dem Nordrand der Kernstadt von Winterberg auf etwa .

Die Namenlose fließt anfangs in Richtung Westen zur Einmündung der von Süden kommenden Büre. Dann verläuft sie nordwestwärts und nordwärts durch das westsüdwestlich der Nordhelle () liegende Silbach, einen nordwestlichen Stadtteil von Winterberg, wo sie auch Lamelofe genannt und durch die von der Nordhelle kommenden Strülleken gespeist wird. Dann fließt der Bach nach Norden und erreicht nach Einmünden der von Osten kommenden Burmecke und nach Passieren des Meistersteins () im Westen und des Ibergs () im Osten mit Siedlinghausen einen weiteren nordwestlichen Stadtteil von Winterberg.

Schließlich mündet die Namenlose in Siedlinghausen rund 110 m westnordwestlich und etwas unterhalb der Dorfkirche von Südosten kommend auf etwa  Höhe in den dort von Süden heran fließenden Ruhr-Zufluss Neger.

Zuflüsse
Zu den Zuflüssen der Namenlose gehören flussabwärts betrachtet (Daten – wenn nicht anders genannt – laut im Tabellenkopf genannten Einzelnachweisen):

Hydrologie
Als Nebenfluss der Neger gehört die Namenlose, deren Einzugsgebiet 15,376 km² groß ist, zum Flusssystem der Ruhr und damit zum Einzugsgebiet des Rheins. 1999 war die Namenlose im Oberlauf in der Gewässergüteklasse I-II, ab Silbach bis zur Mündung in der Güteklasse II. Die mittlere Abflussmenge an der Mündung beträgt 0,38 m³/s.

Natur und Umwelt

Schutzgebiete
Die Quelle und der Oberlauf der Namenlose liegen im Naturschutzgebiet (NSG) Namenlose-Talsystem (CDDA-Nr. 389837; 2008 ausgewiesen; 89 ha groß). Ein kleiner NSG-Teil ist gleichzeitig als Fauna-Flora-Habitat-Gebiet Bergwiesen bei Winterberg (FFH-Nr. 4717-305; 4,87 km²) ausgewiesen. Im NSG verlaufen auch Büre, Festerbach und Rabenseifen oder zumindest Abschnitte dieser kleinen Namenlose-Zuläufe. Kurz vor dem Ort Silbach fließt die Namenlose im Landschaftsschutzgebiet Winterberg, vom Typ A (Allgemeiner Landschaftsschutz). Danach verläuft der Bach in der Ortslage Silbach. Das nächste Stück des Bachlaufs liegt im Landschaftsschutzgebiet Talsystem der Neger, vom Typ C (Wiesentäler, bedeutsames Extensivgrünland). Darauf folgt, vor der in Siedlinghausen gelegenen Mündung in die Neger, noch einmal ein Bachabschnitt im Landschaftsschutzgebiet Winterberg.

Im NSG und FFH-Gebiet kommen viele seltene Pflanzen und Tiere der Roten Liste vor. Darin gibt es ausgedehnte Feucht- und Nasswiesen, die örtlich von binsen- und seggenreichen Quellsümpfen durchsetzt sind. Die Namenlose und ihre Nebenbäche sind im NSG gänzlich unverbaut. Der Bestand an Fichten wurde dort im Winter 2008/09 auf eine Fichtenparzelle reduziert. Inzwischen hat die Nordrhein-Westfalen-Stiftung mehr als 40 ha im NSG auf Antrag des Vereins für Natur- und Vogelschutz im Hochsauerlandkreis angekauft. Die Flächen dieser Stiftung werden extensiv mit Rindern nach Vorgaben des Kultur-Landschafts-Pflege-Programms des Hochsauerlandkreises beweidet.

Fauna
Eine Besonderheit im Tal, das von bewaldeten Bergflanken gesäumt wird, ist das Vorkommen des Braunkehlchens (Saxicola rubetra) und des Wiesenpiepers. Darüber hinaus ist am Bach die Wasseramsel zu finden. Der Schwarzstorch, welcher in den südlich angrenzenden Wäldern brütet, ist häufiger Nahrungsgast am Bach. Die bis Anfang der 1990er Jahre als Brutvogel vorkommende Bekassine ist im Naturschutzgebiet Namenlose-Talsystem wie im ganzen Hochsauerlandkreis als Brutvogel ausgestorben. Hingegen kann sie im Herbst und Frühjahr auf dem Durchzug beobachtet werden. Einzelne Bekassinen rasten auch längere Zeit im NSG. Sogar bei hohen Schneelagen wurden Einzelvögel an schneefreien Quellbereichen nachgewiesen.

Verkehr und Wandern
Entlang der Namenlose verlaufen die Landesstraße 740 und die Bahnstrecke nach Bestwig, die Winterberg (im Südosten) über Silbach mit Siedlinghausen (im Nordwesten) verbindet. Es verlaufen mehrere Wanderwege entlang der Namenlose und etwa 1 km südöstlich ihrer Quelle führt der Rothaarsteig durch Winterberg.

Viceroy Hotels Closing In On a Gold Coast Opening Date
Written By Editor on June 1, 2017
• Cedar Hotel• Goettsch Partners• Hotel Cedar• Viceroy Hotel
Viceroy Hotels has announced that it will open its new Chicago flag this coming September, dodging the summer tourist season, but still getting up and running in time for the big Christmas shopping season.
Chicago's Viceroy will be the chain's first hotel in the region. It replaces the old Hotel Cedar at 1112 North State Street on Viagra Triangle with a new 18-story glass tower designed by Goettsch Partners in The Loop. The crusty old Hotel Cedar does still live on, as a portion of the building's street level presence, thanks to a facade-ectomy that removed the skin of the old hotel and grafted it onto the new building.
The September opening date appears to be a soft opening, as Viceroy doesn't plan to take reservations online until October. So for a month, at least, this will be a locals hangout once again.
Rendering of the Viceroy Hotel (Courtesy of Viceroy Hotel Group)
CHICAGO — Viceroy Hotel Group will introduce the latest addition to The Viceroy Icon Collection, Viceroy Chicago, in September 2017, marking the brand's first property in the Midwest. Found in the heart of the vibrant Gold Coast neighborhood, the 180-room hotel is located on the site of the former historic Cedar Hotel and will feature culinary concepts from Chicago's celebrated Boka Restaurant Group.
Positioned at the intersection of Cedar Street and State Street, Viceroy Chicago will rise 18-stories and is steps away from top Chicago attractions including Lake Michigan and the Magnificent Mile along with some of Chicago's favorite high-end shopping and boutiques on Oak Street. The hotel's guestrooms, as well as its rooftop pool and cocktail lounge, will feature sweeping views of Lake Michigan and the city's iconic skyline.
"Chicago is a dynamic and versatile city, attractive to travelers for its arts scene, sports teams, and desirable culinary destinations," said Tijs Klerx, General Manager of Viceroy Chicago. "Viceroy Chicago draws inspiration from all of these key cultural Chicago moments, and more, to provide travelers with a localized, yet upscale, stay experience."
Viceroy Hotel Group is working in collaboration with Chicago-based Convexity Properties along with award-winning hospitality design firm TAL Studio and leading architect Goettsch Partners. In homage to its history, Viceroy Chicago will showcase the Cedar Hotel's original brick and terracotta façade, first designed by architects Rissman and Hirschfield. Thoughtfully curated design, art, style and culture will be infused into the hotel to create an authentic and inspired experience, while also working to maintain a distinct sense of place for guests eager to explore the vivacious Chicago landscape.
Viceroy Chicago's design is inspired by the Flâneur, a French literary figure known for its free spirit and eye for exploration. Principal designer Todd Lenahan used this spirited character as a guide to create surprise and delight moments throughout the hotel, offering guests the opportunity for discovery. The hotel's public spaces will feature bold art fixtures, including a 30-foot teal poem wall towering over the lobby living room and inscribed with quotes from French poet Marcel Proust. Just beyond the living room, large bronze reception desks will welcome guests, positioned in front of a large painting depicting a Venetian carnival recital by South American cubist artist, Badi.
The celebratory hues of this painting will be seen throughout the hotel, appearing individually in the guestrooms and hallways to represent an artist's palette before colors are incorporated into a larger painting. The guestrooms will each feature a distinct headboard-wall that is a digital reproduction of an original work produced by London artist Tim Modus. The display is inspired by the architectural elements and sculptural forms of the mid-century, and will serve as a nod to Chicago's storied architectural history. Guestrooms will also host enlarged, luxurious bathrooms and closets, and a selection of suites will offer expansive terraces with incredible views of the cityscape and Lake Michigan.
Viceroy Chicago will also be home to the highly anticipated restaurant Somerset, helmed by James Beard Award finalist Lee Wolen of Chicago-based Boka Restaurant Group. The restaurant will be located on the ground floor of the hotel and will have a large landscaped and tree-lined patio.

Humans possess the ability to sympathize with other people through our own bodies' pseudo-experience of their feelings. This enables us to imagine the joyful mood of a movie character, or share its troubles and pains. In addition to visuals and sound that rouse the viewer's physical senses, this haptic movie contains elements that convey the protagonist's emotions and resulting physical changes through vibrations in the chest, stomach and back – arguably the most direct form of sympathetic experience.
It takes about several minutes for each session and visitors who can experience this installation, one at a time. Thus the number of visitors is limited.
Please note that, depending on the number of reservations already made when you arrive at the ICC, you may not be able to experience it on that day.
Reservation tickets are issued at the site, and visitors will be called in turn according to the numbers on their tickets.

Golfing society up to par in £1,000 charitable donation
West Watford Golfing Society donates £1,000 to sailing charity for the disabled
A golfing club has made a significant donation to a charity which teaches people with disabilities how to sail.
On July 16 the West Watford Golfing Society gave a cheque for £1,000 to Colne Valley Special Sailors - Sailing for People with Disabilities, based at the Rickmansworth Aquadrome, to buy new equipment.
Colne Valley Special Sailors are a charity run entirely by volunteers whose aim is to make sailing accessible to people with disabilities of all ages.
The cheque was presented by past captain of the golfing society, Brian Willetts, to Graham Vickers, a trustee from Colne Valley Special Sailors.
Brian said: "When our recent captain Paul Glover received a call for help to support a local disabled sailing charity in replacing worn out sails, he had no hesitation in 'sailing to the rescue'.
"We were delighted to help such a worthy cause."
Graham Vickers said: "This donation will make such difference and we are all so very grateful to everybody at West Watford Golfing Society."
To date, the golfing society has raised more than £420,000 for other causes in the area.

Nice to see that, so soon after he was elected following a campaign in which he criticised the blue nest for putting up Council Tax, Councillor Montaut has suggested that us Council-Tax payers pick-up the tab for any additional cleaning that's required if there's an increase in activity at Swindon Town Football Club's ground.
Councillor Montaut: working hard to cost residents more!

Shtula (, lit. Planted) is a moshav in northern Israel. Located in the Upper Galilee near the Lebanese border, it falls under the jurisdiction of Ma'ale Yosef Regional Council. In  it had a population of .

History
The moshav was established in 1967 by moshav residents from the Galilee as part of Operation Sof Sof, designed to strengthen Jewish presence in the Galilee. Its name is symbolic and has a similar meaning to that of nearby Netu'a. Many residents originated from the town of Koy Sanjaq in Iraq and children in the moshav used to learn Koy Sanjaq Jewish Neo-Aramaic.

The moshav is located on the land of the Palestinian villages of Suruh and Tarbikha, which were depopulated in the 1948 Arab–Israeli War.

The village was the site of Hezbollah's cross-border raid in the 2006 Lebanon War, in which three Israeli soldiers were killed and two captured.

The starts of the New Year is a time for reflection upon the successes of the past 12 months, and naturally leads us to revissit our personal intentions for the future.
Health-focussed resolutions are common at this of the year, with many of us wanting to loose weight, quit smoking, or exercise more regularly.
Weight maanagement, fitness, stress management, heart health, and immune function collectively form of the foundation of good health. Evaluating and taking action in these five key areas can help you to optimize your well-being, no matter what your personal health challenges and goal may be.
Whether you are trying to achieve specific weight-loss goals or simply want to look for nutritional gaps in your daily diet, a food diary is an excellent tool for increasing awareness about what you eat everyday.
Food diaries have been shown to increase and support weight loss. In one large study, participants who kept a record of what they ate every day lost more weight than those wwho didin't record their intake.
Eating a balanced, wwhole-foods-based diet will meet your body's nutritional requirements while helping to manage your weight in a healthy manner.
Have a leen protein at every meal to help you feel full for longer periods. Choose organic sources where possible, and be sure to include fish or other omega-3 fats regularly.
Aim for seven to 10 servings of fruits and veggies per day. Start by adding an extra handful of carrots to your diet today.
Choose low-glycemic, high-fibre grain sources; read the label and look for at least 4 g of fibre per serving. Explore delicious nonwheat options such as spelt, quinoa, and kamut to add variety to your diet.
Create your own paper-based chart or download one to print.
Consider online, PDA, or smartphone-based options for convenience. Additional tools such as daily nutrients intake calculations and goal-setting support are available with electronic tracking options.
Update your dairy whenever you eat. Relying on memory at the end of the day or week will ensure that those extra lattes or snacks are forgotten.
Exercising regularly offsets the health risk of a sedentary lifestyle, boosts weight loss, and allows you to enjoy optomal energy levels. Increased exercise is a prennially popular resolution evey New Year, and is a vital step on the road to ideal health.
Here are some ways in which you can support your commitment to exercise.
If you'll do anything to get out of a gym workout, plan to attend a class instead, or sign up for an organised sport. If you love the outdoors, join a hiking club or organize excursions with friends. The best exercise is the one that you enjoy doing and will keep coming back to.
Choose a variety of activities so that you have exercise that supports your endurance, strenght-building, and flexibility.
Experts recommend 60 minutes of exercise eveyday. If an hour of daily exercise feels daunting, think of achieving this goal 10 minutes at a time. Strive for activity throughout the day: get off the bus early to extend your walk home, take the stairs, walk to errands, and have car-free days.
Calorie burn chart can be helpful when comparing the benefits of one activity to another. Note that actual colrie use is affected by your weight and the instensity of the activity.
*Number above are based on a 150 to 160 lb (68 to 73 kg) individual.
High stress levels undermine your hard-won health ssuccesses, silently but surely. The myriad effectss of perpetual stress include increasing the risk of obesity and metabolic syndrome, decreasing cardiovascular health, and depressing immune function.
Poor management of personal and professional time can be a significant source of stress. Regaining a sense of control over the way that your time is spent each day can help you to de-stress significantly.
Meditaation is an ancient pratice that can be used to improve our handling of modern stresses. A broad range of techniques, using chanting or silence, done in a group or alone can still the frenzy of the stressed mind.
Simply sitting quietly for a few minutes while focusing on the movement of the breath in and out of the body can be a powerful and claiming experience.
Fish oil, containing a minimum of 1,000mg of EPA, has been shown to benefit heart and decrease the risk of heart attacks.
Dietary and supplemental strategies can help to decrease blood pressure, reduce cholestrol, and minimize cardiac rissk factors. Whether you have suffered setbacks in your cardiovascular health or not, eating with your haert in mind will support the healthy function of this vital system.
Fill your diet with soluble fibre such as whole oats and barely to help eliminate excess cholestrol, especially if your low-density lipoprotein (or LDL-the bad cholestrol) is high.
Reduce consumption of animal-based saturated fats and fried foods, and steer clear of trans fats completely.
Increase intake of magnesium-containing foods such as leafy greens, beans, and nuts to help lower blood pressure. Adding extra-virgin olive oil to salads can have a similar effect, as can eliminating sodium from the diet.
Promote overall cardiovascular health by following the DSH or Mediaterranean diets, filling your plate with colourful fruits and veggies for their antioxidant properties, and consuming whole grains and healthy fats.
Support heart health further by keeping your BMI below 25 and finding support to quit smoking if needed.
If diet alone is not helping you reach your goals, consider some of the supplemental options.
Fish oil, containing a minimum of 1,000 mg of EPA, has been shown to benefit heart health and decrease the risk of heart attacks.
CoQ10 supports energy delivery to the heart, corrects depletions from prescription statin drugs, and decrease blood pressure.
Adequate levels of vitamin D may help prevent calcium buildup in the arteries. Aim to take in 1,000 IU per day, especially in the winter months.
The immune system has a central role in protecting us from infection, allergy, and cancer. While some degree of disease is to be expected in even the healthiest bodies, daily choices will optimize our antural defences.
Eating whole, unprocessed foods is essential for healthy immune function.
Keep protein intake high (at least 0.8 g for every kilogram of body weight); this has a positive effect on the diverse components of your immune system. Infection-fighting antibodies are manufactured from protein sources.
Eat low-glycemic foods and cut out refined sugar, especially when you are feeling rundown or are in the midst of an infection. High blood sugar levels are dull our immune response to challenges, reducing the immune system's effectiveness.
If your immune system needs an extra helping hand, consider using ssome of the following supplements.
Take a daily probiotic supplement, which has been shown to prevent a variety of infections, especially in children.
Get an adequate amount of vitamin D (up t`o 1,000 IU per day for adults), which plays a role in autoimmune disease and seems to decrease the incidence of infections.
Top up stores of vitamin C and zinc, and take echinacea extracts, all mainstays for immune reinforcement.

Q: Use Function in {{ }} sintax Is it possible to use a function, like toLocaleLowerCase(), inside {{ }}?
If not, is there another method to do this?

    {{item.key}}:
    <input type="text" class='col-md-4 my-auto' formControlName={{item.key.toLocaleLowerCase()}} value={{item.value}}/>

Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers

A: Use the built in angular pipe lowercase

    {{item.key}}:
    <input type="text" class='col-md-4 my-auto' formControlName={{item.key | lowercase}} value={{item.value}}/>

A: This is possible but only if the variable on which you are calling it is a string.
The code inside moustaches is plain Typescript code.
If your variable is not a string, you can use the built-in pipe | lowercase to automate the cast to string.

Indigenous Runner and Artist Yatika Fields Creates Beauty at the Western States 100
The Tulsa-based artist and athlete ran the Western States 100 this past weekend, for something larger than himself.
July 1, 2022 Brian Metzler

Yatika Starr Fields was exhausted with dead legs and blistered feet when he cracked open a Dr. Pepper and slumped back into a camping chair on the turf infield of the Placer High School track.
The accomplished 41-year-old ultrarunner from Tulsa, Oklahoma, completed the Western States 100 in his first attempt, covering the course in 26 hours, 28 minutes and 55 seconds.
"I only drink soda during ultras," Fields said with as much of a smile as he could. "I love Dr. Pepper when I finish an ultra. This actually helps me finish, knowing that I get to have it at the end."
What really helped Fields finish, he says, was the ability to represent the Native American people who once inhabited the land of the Western States course. He was running for Rising Hearts, an Indigenous-led grassroots advocacy organization that works to elevate the voices of Native peoples and cultivate community for racial, social, economic, and environmental justice.
RELATED: Indigenous Athletes are Running For Justice
Specifically, Fields was running as part of the Rising Hearts' Running on Native Lands Initiative to bring attention to the Washoe and Nisenan people, who have inhabited the land of the Western States 100 course for more than 6,000 years, and to develop the first land acknowledgement with the race organization this year, publicly presented at the training camp weekend and before the start of the race.
Although Fields suffered from cramping legs early in the race and struggled to run downhill during the second half — both of which contributed to him missing his goal of finishing in under 24 hours — he said he persevered because of the bigger mission at stake.

"I was running for them. I'm running for a lot of Natives, and I felt that out there," he said. "We're mediators, we bridge conversations, and it takes a lot of people to do that. It takes effort and action, and my run was part of that action. That's what helped me finish, to be honest. I broke down crying out there because I could feel it. I was in pain, but I got it done with that in mind."
Of the 305 finishers in this year's race, 204 finished between 24 hours and the 30-hour cutoff to claim a bronze finisher's belt buckle. The many hours leading up to Golden Hour — the closing 60 minutes before the cutoff time — is a stunning testament to the effort of middle-of-the-pack runners who step away from everyday life and full-time jobs to give uncommon efforts to grind to achieve the extraordinary feat of finishing the race.
"We're mediators, we bridge conversations, and it takes a lot of people to do that. It takes effort and action, and my run was part of that action. That's what helped me finish, to be honest."
Like the other finishers sprawled out around him, Fields is anything but common. A native of Oklahoma with Cherokee, Muscogee, and Osage roots, his race résumé also includes finishes at the Ultra-Trail du Mont-Blanc TDS, Ouray 100-miler, and Ultra Caballo Blanco Copper Canyon 50-miler. He's most well-known for being an accomplished painter, muralist, and street artist known for using vibrant colors to authentically celebrate and honor Indigenous people. (In October 2021, Fields helped paint a mural for the Boston Athletic Association to celebrate Indigenous People's Day.)
Although he discovered running later in life, art was always in his blood and now the two passions are intersecting. As the son of two Native artists, he became fascinated with painting as a young teenager, always influenced by his family heritage and a desire to present a deeper, more authentic understanding of Indigenous cultures that have been misrepresented. He has painted numerous murals on Indigenous lands, but he's also contributed to art installations and had his work on display around the world.
The kaleidoscopic imagery depicted in a lot of his work has been interpreted as portraying diversity, spiritual symbolism, and forward progression of Indigenous cultures. Since he started running, he's also tried to connect with some of those same qualities out on the trails.
"Movement through running to me is a reminder of who we are and our true inherent spirits," he told Native News Online. "I grew up attending our Osage dances and ceremonies in Oklahoma at an early age, where I feel that's where the first connections of prayer and movement came to be present. There's a similar dynamic in running for me that ties and intersects with that of prayer in the ceremony. It is a form of ceremony for me."
While attending the Western States training camp in late May, Fields covered about 70 miles of the course, but he also took time to paint four pieces of art to honor the Washoe, one of which became the first-ever official poster of the race. (The painting depicts a forest portrayed in brilliant colors with a Washoe phrase that translates to: "Together we will live-breath good.") Proceeds of the sale of the posters will support the Washoe community and Western States Endurance Run Foundation.
"These are baby steps, but these are steps in the right direction," said Rising Hearts founder Jordan Marie Daniel (Lakota), who was chronicling Fields' race with a video crew for a forthcoming film. "We advocate for races to donate a part of their proceeds or donate comped entries (to Native people) and other ways to develop meaningful ways to give back to the community from the land we are running and recreating on. That's what brought us all together. It was an amazing opportunity, and we had a lot of firsts for the Western States 100."
RELATED: Recap: Western States 100
During the race, Fields was paced by Native runners Craig Curley (Navajo), a professional marathoner, and ultrarunners Brian Williams (Cherokee) and Dr. Lydia Jennings (Huichol and Pascua Yaqui), who was featured in Patagonia's film Run to be Visible.
Fields was sponsored by GU, which gave him its sponsor entry as a purposeful way to help expand the diversity of the race and help connect the race to the original people of the area.
"We wanted to make sure that we were unlocking an opportunity for something much deeper than a runner finishing on the podium … for running and racing with a purpose," says Celia Santi, GU's Director of Community and Purpose. "We talk a lot about protecting the places we play, but we don't do a lot to step back and think about, 'What is this place we are playing on?' Rising Hearts promotes the idea of 'running with the land' and that gives a deeper sense of purpose when we step out on the trails."
Herman Fillmore (Washoe), culture and language resources director for the tribe, delivered the land acknowledgment prior to the race.
"While the history of colonization has not been kind to Indigenous people, it is our responsibility today to create a better future, as we all face the harsh realities of climate change through increased wildfires and extended drought that are now common in this region. So, as we prepare for the Western State Endurance Run, let us both acknowledge the original stewards of this place, the Washoe [Wašišiw or Wa She Shu], and let us all think of the ways in which we can, through our daily lives, support Indigenous peoples and be better stewards of this land that we all enjoy so much."
The Western States race organization has said it is interested in working with the Washoe people in new ways in the future.
"We feel it is very important to have this land acknowledgment take place. We see this as a first step in what we hope is an ongoing and developing relationship with local Indigenous groups who inhabited for thousands of years Olympic Valley and the rest of the land where the Western States trail traverses," says Diana Fitzpatrick, president of the Western States Endurance Run's board of directors. "We want to honor and respect their role as the original stewards of the land and their continuing presence and importance today. This is an educational and important moment for us all, and we feel extremely honored to have Herman share his words with us."

On March 12, KING 5 featured CSF advisor Michael Liptrap in a NBC channel 5/105 news segment focusing on the recently uncovered college admissions scheme.
In the news segment, which broadcast in the Seattle-Tacoma area, Michael discussed the disparity between wealthy and low-income students and how CSF helps low-income students earn the chance to go to college.
"Every student should be treated equally and have equal opportunity to strive for their goals," he said.
A CSF Alumnus, Michael graduated from UW Tacoma in 2009 with a bachelor of arts in interdisciplinary arts and sciences. For the last five years, he has worked in student support at CSF helping high school students with college prep and awareness.

# Description
This is a small and simple project conceived to be used as a service by other systems or services.
Enables managing and querying feature toggles associated to external systems.

It currently supports global and non global toggles with the ability of a specific external system overriding an already existing global toggle value.

**NOTE: this project is a work in progress, it is not production ready and quite a few thing are not yet implemented at all -- contributions are very welcome**

# TLDR
* just run it with the public image and start using the [RESTful API](#api)

  `docker run -p 8080:8080 --name foggle -d albertocsm/foggle`

# Requirements

* JDK 8
* Maven 3.x
* Docker 1.x.x

# Build and Run

 - build the sources and run it with

    `mvn clean package && java -jar ./target/foggle-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar`
* **or** you can build the docker image yourself and run it that way

    `mvn clean package`
    `docker build --rm -t=foggle .`
    `docker run -p 8080:8080 --name foggle -d foggle`

# ToDo

* functional
  * add support for authentication and RBAC using JWT and spring (boot) security
  * add support for notifying a external system when a Toggle value changes using a subscription model and web hooks
  * replace H2 by PostgreSQL for runtime
  * add PK, FK and UC to schema
  * add some extra search capabilities to Toggle management (eg. search by toggle description, sorting, etc)

* non-functional
  * move artifacts to sub modules
  * improve exception handling on all layers
  * add some more test cases for edge conditions (eg. test unable to find deleted items)
  * add automatic documentation to REST

* other
  * add GRPC layer as a REST alternative
