On Sunday afternoon last August, a car hit 21-year-old Vinny Kurtz while he was riding his bike in the small college town of Marion, Indiana. In critical condition, he was airlifted by helicopter to a hospital in Fort Wayne where doctors removed part of his skull to alleviate swelling and attempted to amend his collapsed lung. Vinny did not live past the next morning. On that Sunday night, my best friend Allison texted me explaining what had happened to Vinny, asking that I would pray for him. I had actually met Vinny once while visiting Allison at her college, but other than that, he was only a friend who she occasionally talked about to me. For Allison, though, Vinny had been a constant friend throughout her freshman, sophomore, and junior year of college. The two of them and the rest of their friend group had intended on continuing their friendship throughout the rest of their senior year and beyond, but, sadly, death did not permit it.
Yet, friends, if bound together by Christ, has the power to transcend both death and separation. In his Confessions, St. Augustine tells about the death of a childhood friend. "He was not then such a friend to me as he was to become later," Augustine wrote, "because friendship is genuine only when You bind fast together people who cleave to You through the charity poured abroad in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who is given to us." Here, Augustine seems to argue that although there can be many types of friendships here on earth, there is a highest form, or a "true" friendship, which can only occur when the two members are united in Christ. Although tragic, the death of Augustine's friend helped him understand what true friendship looks like: true friendship finds its roots in Christ's love, which surpasses the death and separation that we know in this world.
Death teaches us that anything can change in just one short moment, that life is fragile and unpredictable, and that we cannot do much to prevent the brief moments that alter our entire perspective on life. As I prayed, mourned, and listened to my friend's pain and laments over the death of Vinny, I understood, in a deeper sense, that we cannot alter the past. This truth is particularly difficult to accept in light of the death of a friend. In some respects, Allison regretted the ways in which she felt she had failed as a friend to Vinny; his death served as a reminder that she could no longer deepen their friendship, or even tell him that he mattered to her. After his friend died, Augustine tried to examine the significance of the grief he felt. He writes, "I had become a great enigma to myself, and I questioned my soul, demanding why it was sorrowful and why it so disquieted me, but it had no answer. If I bade it, 'Trust in God,', it rightly disobeyed me, for the man it had held so dear and lost was more real and more lovable than the fantasy in which it was bidden to trust. Weeping alone brought me solace, and took my friend's place as the only comfort of my soul." The death of this friend showed Augustine that there is something valuable in life, since the loss he felt signified that he once had something that belonged to him.
During the weeks following the death of Vinny, I developed a more meaningful understanding not only of how precious friendship is, but also of why it is so important. Death, in a sense, gives the opportunity of new life. When a friend dies, existing friendships are brought to life; the loss of one friend highlights the importance of how we interact with other friends, whether through a kind word, an effort to understand, or the love we express through Christ. I began to ask myself questions: how do we be good friends to someone in need? How do we mourn when there is loss, and celebrate when there is gain? How do we encourage one another to become better people, and, most importantly, how do we edify one another in our faith and in our relationship with God? Augustine was deeply marked by the loss of his friend. Yet the removal of one thing gives space for something new to develop. When one thing dies, something else grows in its place. For Augustine, it was God who continued to grow in his life; though Augustine did not fully know it at the time, God was present in his grief and continued to reveal himself through the removal of his friend.
Similar to the ways in which the death of Augustine's friend showed him how much he loved and missed that friendship, the five months I spent studying in Germany proved to be a time of learning what valuing friendship means for me. It was difficult not having my good friends around me all the time as I do when I am at Hillsdale. Yet the absence of my friends, especially because I was in a foreign country, helped to further define what these friendships meant to me, and affirm the fact that they were not determined by distance. Although most of us would prefer to live close to our dear friends, friendships that exist partially out of convenience learn to sustain themselves in spite of spatial distance. Some of the inconveniences of studying abroad in Germany were six to nine-hour time differences, poor WiFi connection, and semesters and schedules that did not match up with my friends and family back home. These minor disadvantages, however, gave me ample opportunity to grow in my being a friend to others: I wrote letters, began to pray for my friends when we could not manage to talk, and incorporated why these friendships were important to me into conversations I had with the friends I was making in Germany.
It is no surprise that I was excited to return for my senior year and continue to engage in the friendships with the people I had dearly missed. Vinny's death only augmented this excitement: I realized that it should never be an option to neglect the people I love and consider friends. What does this mean on a more concrete level? It means cherishing the brief (and quiet) conversations in the library, in between studying and writing essays. It means making every meal at the cafeteria intentional. It means celebrating with a friend when she makes Homecoming Court, and it means encouraging and praying for a friend who has made a difficult and painful decision. It means giving your housemate a hand when she needs it, though you are short for time, and it means building intentional community with the people who surround you. Friendship means making inconvenient choices for the sake of another person, because we cannot always know when our opportunities to be a friend to someone will come to an end. Indeed, we have the choice to build one another up in the Holy Spirit and encourage one another in prayer and genuine love. Every day, we get to love both the people who are physically near us and those who are geographically far away.
As I learn about what friendship means through these experiences and through reading about Augustine's story of his friend, I have realized that all of our friendships should direct us toward God. In Augustine's case, he had not yet converted to Christianity when he had an intimate relationship with his friend. In other words, Augustine had not yet experienced true love in Christ, and could not comprehend the kind of friendship that two people could develop when immersed in that love. God used Augustine's friendship to point him towards a higher friendship: that which is found in God himself. Although Augustine was unaware of it at the time, Christ was working in his life in a significant way through the mourning of this friend. Augustine reminds God of this, saying, "you were pursuing close behind us, O God of vengeance who are the fount of all mercy and turn us back to yourself in wondrous ways. You took him from this life after barely a year's friendship, a friendship sweeter to me than any sweetness I had known in all my life." If this friendship that fell short of true friendship was sweet to Augustine, how much sweeter can two friends bound together in Christ's love be? In the face of the inevitable times of death and separation here on this earth, we can hold onto the permanency of Christ and his promise to us. Friendship means endeavoring to love our friends for the purpose of bringing one another closer to God and knowing his promise of permanency.

Q: .map() method print "," between items Using .map() method create "," separator between my returned items.
I am trying to return a piece of HTML code with inserted data using back quotes and ${} in a drag & drop list project where everything is created from the interface instances. However, I am experiencing a bug? Not sure I should call this a bug.
Is there a way to remove or skip separators between iterations?
This is my main.js where I call the createListInstance function which contains the function from the module that will create the instance, then add functionality to it.
...
createListInstace(
    { title: document.querySelector('.modal-input').value, items: ['item1', 'item2'] }
...
);

So I am passing the above dummy data into this function.
function createListInstace(data) {
    // Create list
    interfaces.listInstance(data);
    ...
}

Which will land here:
export const listInstance = (data) => {
 ...
 ${data.items.map(item => {
        return (
            `

${item}

                <button id="del-list_el" value=${item} type="submit">X</button>

`
        )
  })}
 ...
}

I am not mutating anything from the first step to the last.
And this is what I get:

From this object:

I have tried to .join(" "), even .split(" ") back the array but no result :(
Thanks in advance!

Jason Bourne 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray Review
Reviewed by Sean Ferguson
Matt Damon (Bourne Franchise, The Martian) is back and this time it's personal in Jason Bourne, the action-packed fifth installment of the blockbuster franchise. Paul Greengrass, the director of The Bourne Supremacy and The Bourne Ultimatum returns for the next chapter of Universal Pictures' Bourne franchise, which finds the CIA's most lethal operative drawn out of the shadows. Damon is joined by Academy Award winner Alicia Vikander (Ex Machina, The Danish Girl), Vincent Cassel (Black Swan, Irreversible) and Academy Award winner Tommy Lee Jones (Captain America: The First Avenger, No Country for Old Men), while Julia Stiles (The Bourne Supremacy, The Bourne Ultimatum) reprises her role in the series.Nearly a decade since fans last saw the former operative, the explosive return brings Jason Bourne into a whole new era, revealing key secrets about Bourne's origins to a new generation. The 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray, DVD and Digital HD include commentary from the cast, filmmakers, stunt performers and fight coordinators, plus behind-the-scenes features that take viewers inside the making of the film's intense stunt choreography and one of the wildest car chases in Bourne history.
Film (4 out of 5 stars)
A decade after exposing the plans of Operations Treadstone and Blackbriar, Jason Bourne (Matt Damon) is forced to emerge from hiding to confront another conspiracy. In the last decade, Bourne has been trying to keep of the grid and makes a living by participating in underground fights. Having finally regained his memories of his past, Bourne is still not at peace. If anything, he is even more bitter and distant than before. That changes when his one and only remaining friend Nicky Parsons (Julia Stiles) tracks him down to share with him new information about his father's involvement in the Treadstone project and Bourne's own recruitment into the program.
The CIA led by Director Robert Dewey (Tommy Lee Jones) of course does not want that information to be be revealed and he sends a hit team to kill all loose ends including Bourne. Dewey is old school but not everyone in the CIA agrees with his methods, including Heather Lee (Alicia Vikander) who represents the modern equivalent as the head of the cyber ops division. Their differing points of view cause a divergence between them that leads Heather to begin to try to help Bourne who is outnumbered and outgunned. To make matters worse, Dewey has even dispatched the Asset (Vincent Cassel) who was trained like Bourne and has a personal grudge against him.
While the hunt for Bourne continues, Dewey has other issues to deal with including the squirrelly CEO of a social media empire named Aaron Kalloor (Riz Ahmed) who is having second thoughts about allowing government surveillance access to their flagship product Deep Dream. Despite being bankrolled by Dewey, on the even of it's launch, Kalloor is having second thoughts about their arrangement and their scheduled upcoming joint convention where they are set to debate about privacy rights. Bourne being Bourne, will of course find himself involved in everything as he follows the threads leading to Dewey with the Asset hot on his trail.
Jason Bourne is an excellent followup to the fantastic earlier movies. It maintains the series' nonstop action, but updates it for a post-Snowden world where Bourne (and really all of us) must deal with the all pervasive surveillance that surrounds us. Matt Damon easily steps back into Bourne's shoes and makes it seem like we haven't waited twelve years for this installment. Director Paul Greengrass has also brought back his flair for kinetic action and well-staged set pieces. One of the things that I love about this series is how they continue the story and each movie adds a little more to the foundation each time. The past isn't forgotten or discarded, but instead is used to develop plot points and character motivations that really benefit the movie and the character of Jason Bourne who spent three movies trying to recover his memory of who he was. While the plot this time may not be as intricate as the earlier ones, it's still a very enjoyable movie and I hope we won't have to wait another twelve years to get another one.
Video (5 out of 5 stars)
4K Ultra HD (4 1/2 out of 5 stars) Blu-ray (5 out of 5 stars)
Jason Bourne offers two excellent versions in this set. The video transfer for the Blu-ray is a top notch effort but the 4K Ultra HD version is even better but it's not quite at the demo level for UHD as some other movies. Both offer distinct colors and textures, but the UHD version has better detail and the black levels are more dark and solid than the Blu-ray which really makes a difference in the Bourne movies which are often in darkness.
Audio (4 1/2 out of 5 stars)
The DTS: X track found on both version is excellent as well. Both versions have the same audio options with the once exception of an English Descriptive Video Service track that can only be found on the Blu-ray version. The lossless DTS: X mix offers an immersive audio experience that balances the dialogue, score, and effects very well. There's a lot of atmosphere delivered by the surround channels and the directionality of the action was accurate and impressive.
Extras (3 1/2 out of 5 stars)
On the surface, it doesn't look like this release offers a lot of extras, but a bunch of smaller featurettes have been bundled together (they can be played all together or separately). They are all in HD.
Bringing Back Bourne - An eight minutes look behind-the-scenes with comments from those in front of the camera - Matt Damon, Julia Stiles, Alicia Vikander, and Tommy Lee Jones and those behind the camera, Director Paul Greengrass, Producers Frank Marshall, and Gregory Goodman. they talk about why there was a delay and what made them decide that now was the time to bring Bourne back.
Bourne to Fight - This is eighteen minutes long but this is actually three different featurettes that have been combined together. They include "Bare Knuckle Boxing," "Close Quarters," and "Underground Rumble."
The Athens Escape - This is a look at the set up and execution of the Athens action setpiece involving the motorcycle chase.
Las Vegas Showdown - This is a fifteen minute look into the filming and set up for the movie's finale set in Las Vegas. The behind the scenes look is broken into two parts: one focused on "Convention Chaos," and the other focused on the filming on the Las Vegas strip in "Shutting Down the Strip."
Summary (4 out of 5 stars)
While Jason Bourne isn't quite as good as the earlier entries, it is still a lot of fun and it was great to get a new installment in the series. The cast are all excellent in their roles and this 4K Ultra HD set contains fantastic video and audio presentations. The 4K UHD version is the best one, but if you don't have a 4K player the Blu-ray is a close second.

Denise Garcia's Wiki: Baby Ball on the Way for Lonzo Ball and His Girlfriend!
By: Caroline John - Published: February 8, 2018 at 4:30 am | Last Updated: March 16, 2018 at 7:53 am
Photo: youtube.com/watch?v=q5cw65Lxed4
It appears Lonzo Ball has it all with a beautiful girlfriend and thriving NBA career. He's also the face of Big Baller Brand, and now, he's got a baby on the way! Lonzo Ball and his girlfriend, Denise Garcia, are expecting their first child together.
LaVar Ball might have to launch a Baby Baller Brand soon! The eccentric Ball patriarch is going to be a grandfather!
Ball's 20-year-old son, Lonzo Ball, is expecting his first child with his girlfriend, Denise Garcia. The basketball player is both killing it on the court and flourishing in his personal life.
Like her Lakers boyfriend, Garcia is amazing at what she does. So, get the scoop on Lonzo Ball's girlfriend with details from Denise Garcia's wiki.
Who Is Denise Garcia?
Born on April 14, 1996, in West Covina, California, Denise Garcia's age is 21. She graduated in 2014 from Chino Hills High School in California, the same high school the Ball brothers went to. In fact, Ball and Garcia were high school sweethearts!
The couple also has a lot in common. Like Ball, Garcia is the eldest of three siblings born to Gary and Patricia Garcia. She has younger siblings, Dayna and Gary Garcia.
Garcia was prominently featured on the Ball family's Facebook reality series, Ball in the Family.
She's an Athletic Star
Denise Garcia is just as athletic as her hoops-shooting beau. She is a talented soccer player, standing at an impressive five feet, five inches. As the star of their high school soccer team, Garcia played midfield and was selected to the girl's soccer varsity squad.
In high school, Garcia was named Defensive MVP in 2012. She was also named to the Second Team All-League twice, and once in the First Team All-League. She even coaches the girl's soccer team at her former high school.
Garcia first attended Seattle University before transferring to University of California, Riverside. While pursuing a career as a registered nurse anesthetist, she continued to play soccer at UC Riverside. She is slated to graduate in 2018.
Denise Garcia and Lonzo Ball
Unlike his father's brash attention-seeking tendencies, Lonzo Ball is a fiercely private person. He's not big on over-sharing on social media, either. His girlfriend is occasionally featured on his Instagram, though.
Garcia also likes to gush about her man occasionally. Their prom pictures were a hot topic on the Internet.
The soccer player was with the Ball family when Lonzo was drafted by the Lakers in 2017. She took to Instagram to celebrate the occasion in an adorable post.
Garcia confessed that she didn't know who Lonzo Ball was when she first saw him. She didn't know his name or that he was famous because of his dad. But the first time he caught her eye, he had her attention.
In one of Denise Garcia's Instagram posts, she wrote that the Lonzo off the court is a more "incredible" person than when he is on the court.
Ball and Garcia make one adorable couple, and now they're reportedly expecting a baby, too! The family is yet to confirm the pregnancy.
But knowing that LaVar Ball is not one to miss an opportunity to create a buzz, he might be going for a grand announcement!

Pennsylvania Funding Restored Based on Clean Water Plan
"Pennsylvania was not on track to meet nutrient reduction targets, and EPA made clear in 2015 that it would withhold funding due to that lack of progress. DEP worked with our sister agencies and wrote a plan that will put us on track," said DEP Secretary John Quigley.
The Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection announced Feb. 2 that, based on the commonwealth's revised plan to improve clean water in the Susquehanna River watershed, extending into the Chesapeake Bay, EPA has restored $3 million in program funding to the department. The plan was developed collaboratively between DEP and the Pennsylvania departments of Agriculture and Conservation and Natural Resources.
According to DEP, the funding will primarily support installation of best management practices by farmers and the operations of County Conservation Districts. EPA will award the funds to DEP when federal budget authority for the new fiscal year is finalized.
"Pennsylvania was not on track to meet nutrient reduction targets, and EPA made clear in 2015 that it would withhold funding due to that lack of progress. DEP worked with our sister agencies and wrote a plan that will put us on track," said DEP Secretary John Quigley. "This restored funding will be targeted by DEP to begin implementation of our rebooted strategy. It is a start – but only that. We have a long way to go in our efforts to assemble additional resources and to do the work to improve local water quality in Pennsylvania and that of the Chesapeake Bay."

Great Connector Inventions: 2mm Metral
By David Brearley | June 13, 2016
The development of the 2mm Metral connector changed the telecom industry forever.
Metral 4×6 modules were stackable to make high-density backplane connectors.
The connector industry is very interesting, in part, because of exciting inventions developed by engineers – some of which have such an impact that the direction of the industry is changed.
In the late '80s, telecom OEMs were outgrowing the capabilities of the 0.100″-pitch connectors then available. They needed more signals to communicate to the backplane and were also moving to higher speeds that required more grounds, which further drove the need for more pins. The European telco industry was quite robust at the time, with large, growing companies in each country, including Ericsson, Siemens, Alcatel, and GPT. The US was dominated at the time by AT&T, which had just spun out Lucent. Nortel and NTT were also strong.
Telecom companies at that time were also connector manufacturers. Alcatel, Ericsson, GPT, Nortel, and AT&T all made their own connectors. Alcatel and Ericsson were using variants of the DIN 41612 standard (96-pin DIN connectors), but others were making complex multi-row connectors on 2.54mm pitch. Nortel made a four-row connector and AT&T made an exotic eight-row 0.125″-pitch connector that straddled the daughtercard with four rows of surface-mount leads on each side. They called this eight-row monster Fastek. You can imagine the manufacturers of telecom equipment were feeling really constrained by the limitations of these connectors and were quite anxious to find a new interconnect solution that would enable more pins per inch on the backplane, more cards per shelf, and lower costs.
AT&T had internal CAD (computer-aided design) standards around the Fastek system that basically allowed design engineers to design boards and electronic circuits, all using a standard backplane connector and backplane grid. AT&T had a unique manufacturing process for backplanes where it inserted individual pins into the backplane with fully automated machines. This process eliminated in-process inventory except raw pins on reels and backplane PCBs. To make system A, engineers programmed the machine to insert pins exactly where needed. They could have multiple pin lengths inserted to facilitate sequenced mating in a much easier way than that of competitors. The flexibility was quite impressive. A backplane-populating machine could make sophisticated backplanes for large switches today and for a simple access backplane tomorrow. AT&T had a plant in Richmond, Va., that utilized more than 10 of these stitching machines, which produced hundreds of backplanes every day. AT&T was so integrated that it made its own connectors, pins, backplanes, and daughtercards. Those were the days!
Both AMP and Berg were working on this challenge simultaneously, and the development centers for both companies happened to be a few blocks apart in s'Hertogenbosch, Netherlands, known to the Dutch as denBosch (the Duke's woods). There must have been innovation in the drinking water since both companies developed industry-changing designs.
Berg assembled a team to address this opportunity: John Harding, telecom industry manager, shuttled between the major customers gathering requirements, and Hans van Woensel, product engineer at Berg, was assigned the task of inventing a new connector that could double the pin density without sacrificing on reliability or cost. As the concept developed, Harding revisited each of the customers to get their reactions. To address the broadest range of opportunities, Berg decided to develop a system composed of 12mm-long blocks with four rows of contacts on a 2mm x 2mm mating grid. By stacking these modules side by side, Berg was able to provide up to 456 mating pins on a 233mm-tall Eurocard form factor, replacing two 96-pin DIN 41612 connectors then in use.
Berg was able to quickly prototype this concept because the contacts and housings could be tooled quickly and inexpensively. Berg also developed a small stitching module that inserted one contact at a time at high speed. This flexible stitching module enabled them to produce production-quality parts very quickly and to expand capacity by adding as many additional stitching modules as necessary. These modules could stitch receptacles today and headers tomorrow with changeover tooling, raising the bar in terms of time to market and quality of initial parts. This family became the Metral 2mm backplane connector system.
Ericsson was especially forward-looking for the time. Its team envisioned its facility populating daughtercards and backplanes with fully automated machines fed by 12mm connector blocks in tube packaging. They used robot-like pick-and-place machines to place power, signal, and guidance modules as needed for any daughtercard that came along.
Berg also developed power and guidance modules that could be placed in convenient locations to optimize the connector configuration for each card. The team was able to take initial Metral parts to make a prototype that met the requirements of the IEEE 896 working group developing the Futurebus+ standard.
A constant 2mm contact pitch allows many efficient manufacturing techniques. Contacts on a constant 2mm pitch can be mass-inserted into housings continuously, maximizing use of the contacts on strip and minimizing the number of insertion steps. Contacts in right-angle daughtercard connectors can be inserted then bent, a rather efficient manufacturing process. Berg chose to stitch contacts and created standard high-speed stitching machines that could make every variant at high speed and low cost. The cost reduction relative to the 96-pin DIN connectors was substantial – more than 50%. Much less material was used, including metal, plastic, and gold plating. The manufacturing process was also optimized for efficiency.
The telecom customers were delighted. They could see significant cost reductions for their future designs, as well as density and performance improvements. They rapidly endorsed this approach and changed their internal card-cage standards to take advantage. AT&T, moving from 0.125″ connectors to 2mm- (0.79″-) pitch connectors, saw so much of an advantage that they created a new AT&T standard card-cage architecture.
The Metral connector was introduced to the IEEE 896 Futurebus standards committee and won the standard against six-row 0.100″ connector designs. At the time, Augat presented a six-row straddle-mount connector on 0.100″ centers and AMP proposed a right-angle six-row solder-to-board connector. Berg proposed a mix of 4×12 signal modules and six-pin power blocks that was able to meet all of the requirements of the Futurebus specification. Berg partnered with AT&T and Ericsson to present the Metral connector. Part of the deal was that other connector manufacturers were then able to tool Metral connectors royalty-free, a key business decision. This created enough momentum to win the standard and quickly proliferate the number of Metral producers, making this connector one of the dominant standards in the telecom industry. Metral has been tooled by Berg, Molex, AT&T, Ericsson, ITT Cannon, SOURIAU, CECO, and several other suppliers.
A couple of ironies evolved from this saga. First, after its approval by IEEE, Futurebus never achieved commercial success as a standard. It was a seven-legged calf, a term for a standard that incorporates so many features and variants that it becomes totally un-optimized for any of them. The connector, however, was broadly adopted, especially for telecom applications at Ericsson, Alcatel, GPT, and AT&T (that later spun off Lucent). The simplicity and modularity of the connector, and the fact that it was tooled by so many suppliers, made it one of the most cost-effective backplane connectors ever tooled. It is still broadly used today, mostly in telecom access boxes.
The second irony is that, as the telecom industry imploded in the late '90s, the connector companies consolidated. Berg acquired the connector operations of Nortel, Ericsson, AT&T, and Alcatel. FCI, who had earlier acquired SOURIAU, acquired Berg. The net result was that FCI acquired nearly all of the Metral capacity.
FCI Metral family variants – part of a 228-page catalog.
Special Metral modules have evolved, including high-speed modules with internal shielding, larger modules, cable solutions, and even RF. CECO, a California molding house with special expertise in building tools for long connectors, developed a very nice business in making a better connector than the commodity producers. The FX-2 product line included long "monoblock" housings, dual-beam beryllium copper contacts (lower mating force, higher conductivity), and integrated guide pins to fit customer requirements exactly. IBM, in particular, specified the CECO 2mm FX-2 connectors for its mid-range servers.
Stay tuned: In two weeks, we'll share the equally significant story about the AMP 2mm Z-Pack HM backplane connector system and some of the breakthrough innovations that further changed the direction of backplane connector technology.

Although normally harmless, snails can, however be problematic. They can destroy the natural balance of the aquarium and, depending on the species, they can kill plants. Find out what to do to remove excess freshwater snails in the aquarium.
Most times, aquarium snails are quite beneficial: effectively clean place, reducing the amount of nitrates, are fascinating creatures, peaceful and, depending on the species, may help plant growth. However, when parasitic species multiply disallowed, they will begin to compete with other species and that will scare the fish from the aquarium. In addition, a lot of snails attached to the tank wall may not be a very pleasant image.
Paste the aquarium wall snails into a new aquarium where you can invent a home for them. Although the new aquarium will keep them separated from other fish and plants it will be a haven for these creatures without the snails. Even by themselves, snails are interesting specimens and they won't make any more problems for your main aquarium. Feeding them is even easier; all you have to do is give them algae by spreading them over the water or food for fish or vegetables. A minimum level of filtration and ventilation is needed in order for them to survive.
Luring snails out of the aquarium can prove problematic; it might be unpleasant to get wet or to introduce strange objects into the aquarium. In this case, take a plastic glass and use it as a trap for snails. Put it in the center of the aquarium or anywhere where you have noticed that the snails gather. Throw the bait in it – you can choose algae. It may take several hours until they smell food and start looking for it, but after a while, the only thing you need to do is to pull them out with a spoon or even directly with the glass. Very easy, right?
Use aquarium snails as a food source can be a good solution to their overgrowing population. There are several species of fish that feed on snails, including, loach and some cichlids. Snails are, after all, part of the food chain; so treat them as such. Ball-fish is very effective in removing unwanted snails. In fact, it is necessary for this species to feed on such snails since their shell helps stop the continued growth of ball-fish teeth.
Another way to solve the snail problem is to simply destroy them. You can evenuse snails to kill other snails. There is a certain species of snail called the Assassin snail (Antentome Helena), which feeds on other snails. These snails are small and breed slowly, so they will not invade a freshwater aquarium. If no action is taken hey will destroy even the aquarium plants! There are also chemicals on the market that eliminate the aquarium snails. Copper solutions are very effective in this regard. However, with a little ingenuity, snails can be both useful and in a controlled number. Also, the introduction of chemicals in the tank may have unintended consequences. Chemicals would kill any other invertebrates in the aquarium and could endanger the life of any other species of fish or plants. They should be used only as a last resort.
Even If sometimes it is necessary to remove snails from freshwater aquariums at home, you should not overlook their usefulness.


Plastic surgery is one of the most popular topics in discussion today and everybody knows about its various benefits.
Plastic surgery is a delicate art and a serious science that helps to boost a person's self esteem and adjust to different surroundings. People start feeling inferior as wrinkles set in with age and feel an urge to improve their appearance. For this they can now choose the procedures that are available with many plastic surgery clinics.
The main purpose of plastic surgery is not just to make your face and body prettier but the main aim of reconstructive surgery is to restore the appearance and function of several body parts. For instance such surgeries are done in cases of a serious trauma or car accidents. Such operations can also be life saving in many cases.
The psychological health of a patient also gets a boost which is another merit of cosmetic surgery. The persons who have undergone such beauty procedures say that that they feel more confident about themselves post surgery which is another great advantage of cosmetic surgery. Research has also proven that plastic surgery procedures make people feel more sexually attractive. This confirms the fact that even minor changes in the outside can bring great advantages in the inside.
The patient must have realistic expectations for achieving external and internal benefits of cosmetic surgery completely before going to a specialist. They have to know that the doctors cannot perform miracles and fully change a person's appearance. Such unrealistic expectations will only lead to disappointment and dissatisfaction.
Whether a person opts for cosmetic surgery to improve his look or lifestyle, there will be greater emotional benefits as the patient starts feeling comfortable in their body. After undergoing such procedures, many people have stated that they have become more confident and sociable. When they get used to this change and this greater level of self confidence, it can be a benefit that stays forever and with great benefits.

Why we're joining forces with ITU for affordable broadband
| Sonia Jorge, Executive Director, Alliance for Affordable Internet (A4AI)
We are delighted with the opportunity to join forces with ITU to help provide more affordable internet access to the world's 3.6 billion unconnected.
My organization, the Alliance for Affordable Internet (A4AI), and the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) have launched a new joint annual research initiative to produce and publish mobile and fixed broadband pricing and affordability data, covering 207 countries around the world. A4AI currently publishes mobile broadband pricing data in 100 low and middle-income countries and now, through this exciting partnership, we will scale up to give more insights into the cost of internet access across the world.
This is a critical next step to continue to strengthen our partnership and together publish the most reliable and updated set of broadband pricing data across all ITU member states. This project will support A4AI's policy advocacy work and ensure that policymakers and other stakeholders can make decisions based on accurate and reliable data.
This new collaboration will provide the most accurate and trusted publicly available source for broadband pricing and affordability data around the world.
The data will be accessible to the public via a joint interactive online platform to provide data visualizations and easy access to the data. In addition to publishing the data, A4AI and the ITU will provide analysis and findings based on the data set, including global and regional pricing trends and progress towards affordable access across regions and countries. This information is critical to inform and support decisions by policymakers, regulators and private sector stakeholders, as all players work to achieve universal access to affordable broadband.
This is an important partnership for A4AI and ITU, as we believe that more expansive research on pricing data will further help shed light on the ability for everyone to access affordable and meaningful connectivity around the world, a goal that myself and Doreen Bogdan-Martin, Director of ITU's Telecommunication Development Bureau, jointly share.
The initial set of data and analysis will be published on the joint online platform later this year.

Did You Know? - The Alley Cats are an American doo-wop group singing in a cappella. The group originated in 1987, when a doo-wop revival program was occurring at Fullerton College. Two men, also the group's future founding fathers, Mando Fonseca and Royce "The Voice" Reynolds, decided to start an a cappella group. Two additional members along the way, Todd Dixon and Andre Peek, materialized and the foursome gained notice. Since then The Alley Cats have performed for many audiences, ranging from elementary school fun nights to The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, as well as opening for Leno at his Las Vegas shows. The Alley Cats's sound has been heard as well at The White House.
Did You Know? - The name Doo-wop is given to a style of vocal-based rhythm and blues music that developed in African American communities in the 1940s and achieved mainstream popularity in the 1950s and early 1960s. It emerged from New York, Philadelphia, Chicago, Baltimore, Newark, Pittsburgh, Cincinnati and areas of greater Los Angeles including El Monte and Compton. Built upon vocal harmony, doo-wop was one of the most mainstream, pop-oriented R&B styles of the 1950s and 1960s.
As a musical genre, Doo-wop is a type of vocal group harmony with the musical qualities of many vocal parts, nonsense syllables, a simple beat, little, or no, instrumentation, and simple music and lyrics. It is ensemble singing with single artists appearing with a backing group. Solo billing usually implies that the individual is more prominent in the musical arrangement.

Dinner Time Means Claim Jumper
Did You Know? - Claim Jumper is a restaurant chain headquartered in Irvine, California with 45 locations in Arizona, California, Illinois, Colorado, Nevada, Washington, Wisconsin and Oregon. Founder Craig Nickoloff opened the first Claim Jumper Restaurant in Los Alamitos, California in 1977.
Until 2005, CWN Management, Inc., which operates the Claim Jumper chain, had been privately owned by the Nickoloff family. Leonard Green & Partners purchased a majority stake in the company in 2005 for a reported $200 million. The company filed for bankruptcy on September 10, 2010. On October 28, 2010, the chain was auctioned off with Landry's Restaurants being the winning bidder

Did You Know? - A pizza just removed from the oven. The Ancient Greeks covered their bread with oils, herbs and cheese. In Byzantine Greek, the word was spelled πίτα or pita, meaning pie. The word has now spread to Turkish as pide, Serbo-Croatian and Bulgarian as pita, Albanian as pite and Modern Hebrew pittāh. The Romans developed placenta, a sheet of dough topped with cheese and honey and flavored with bay leaves. Modern pizza originated in Italy as the Neapolitan pie with tomato. In 1889, cheese was added.
In 1889, during a visit to Naples, Queen Margherita of Italy was served a pizza resembling the colors of the Italian flag, red (tomato), white (mozzarella) and green (basil). This kind of pizza has been named after the Queen as Pizza Margherita.
We missed you Kathy and Ed

We Arrive .42 Miles Later At The Brea Theater.... Brea??
Did You Know? - Nestled in the foothills on a plateau at the northern tip of Orange County, Brea was known as a place where tar seeped from the hills. The word "Brea" means tar in Spanish. In early history, Indians and pioneers used chunks of the oil-soaked earth for fuel and domestic purposes like heating their homes and waterproofing their roofs. Then came the big oil boom!
In 1894, the Union Oil Company purchased 1,200 acres of land to be used for oil development. They struck it rich in 1898 when the first oil well, Olinda Oil Well #1, came in - thus creating an oil boom in the hills of Brea and Olinda and paving the way for the thriving city that Brea is today.
An actual town did not develop until 1911 when businesses and small industries sprang up to serve the oil field workers and their families. The official founding date for the town of Brea is January 19, 1911, when the old map of the town of Randolph was refiled under a new name. The City of Brea became incorporated on February 23, 1917, with a population of 752.

Let The Show Begin
Did You Know? - The term "doo-wop" is first known to have appeared in print in 1961 in the Chicago Defender, when fans of the music coined the term during the height of a vocal harmony resurgence. The phrase has been attributed to the radio disc jockey Gus Gossert but Gossert himself said that "doo-wop(p) was already being used [before me] to categorize the music in California."
They kept the crowd in stitches all night....
Did You Know? - A cappella (Italian for "in the manner of the church" or "in the manner of the chapel" ) music is specifically solo or group singing without instrumental sound, or a piece intended to be performed in this way.
In modern usage, a cappella often refers to an all-vocal group performance of any style, including barbershop , doo wop , and modern pop/rock.
Vicky was having a conniption in the back as the Cats were driving their souped-up Chebby
The hydraulics worked quite well
Vicky was thinking about getting a new car... Specially for trips to the theater....
No, it is NOT a disguised flask.... Greg brought his train whistle just in case
Did You Know? - A train whistle or air whistle, (originally referred to as a steam trumpet), is an audible signaling device on a steam locomotive used to warn that the train is approaching, and to communicate with rail workers.
The older steam whistles were almost always actuated with a pull cord (or sometimes a lever) that permitted proportional (tracker) action, so that some form of "expression" could be put into the sound. Many locomotive operators would have their own style of blowing the whistle, and it was often apparent who was operating the locomotive by the sound. Modern locomotives often make use of a push button switch, which takes away the fine control over the way the whistle is sounded.
Because trains generally have extremely high mass and relatively low braking friction, they are inherently difficult to stop at normal speeds. Since train whistles were extremely inexpensive to institute compared to other more effective warning devices, the use of loud and distinct train whistles had become the preferred safety fallback for railway operators.
Leon and Johnny (Del) still have the giggles from the performance
Would you buy a car from any o these gentlemen???
One more toot and Marcia will take your "tooter" away
No snow in California... It was in the high 60's this evening
Did You Know? - North American steam locomotive whistles have different sounds from one another. They came in many forms, from tiny little single-note shriekers (called banshees on the Pennsylvania Railroad) to larger plain whistles with deeper tones (a deep, plain train whistle is the "hooter" of the Norfolk & Western, used on their A- and Y-class Mallet locomotives).
Even more well known were the multi-chime train whistles. Nathan of New York copied and improved Casey Jones's boiler-tube chime whistle by casting the six chambers into a single bell, with open "steps" on top to save on casting. This whistle is still considered the "king of train whistles".
If Greg had this chart it could have been a long evening for all of us...
Wine is gone... Time to go back inside....
Greg is up to something
Great sounds of the season
I know... No photography BUT we could not pass it up
Santa comes to play
It's Time To Head For Home But GPS Was Different This Time
GPS said go home differently... 29 minutes/23.63 miles
Left to right: Marcia, Leon, Tom, Jan, Brian, Del, Donna, Vicky, Bob, Greg, Sue, and Paul....
Yes, Paul is still clutching his wine glass which has since been emptied
Memory pictures for our album
The "Gang"
Did You Know? - A gang is a group of people who, through the organization, formation, and establishment of an assemblage, share a common identity. In current usage it typically denotes a criminal organization or else a criminal affiliation. In early usage, the word gang referred to a group of workmen. In the United Kingdom the word is still often used in this sense, but it later underwent pejoration. The word gang often carries a negative connotation; however, within a gang which defines itself in opposition to mainstream norms, members may adopt the phrase as a statement of identity or defiance.
The word gang derives from the past participle of Old English gan, meaning "to go". It is cognate with Old Norse gangr, meaning "journey."
Deep inside the underground caverns of Brea were hear strange sounds....
... and see strange things....

Best smartphones featured in MIA 2018
The Mobile Industry Awards look to be fiercely contested this year given the tremendous quality of the phones this year. The longlists for smartphones and accessories according to their categories are out and the lists can be described as a smartphone fanatic's dream.
Although each phone on the list is a great phone in its own right, here are some of the phones that stand out from each of the different categories in this year's MIA:
Best overall phones
If you want the best of the best and aren't concerned about how much it may cost, then these phones nominated in the MIA are the best of the best.
For all the people out there who want the latest and best version of Android out there currently, then this phone is the one for you. It has a solid build, has a great camera and performs without any hiccups as well. It's hardly received a bad review so far and it's reflected by its average 9 out of 10 rating.
The Android OS comes with little to no bloatware and the camera performance is superb. As far as the specifications go, it has Snapdragon 835 processor with 4 GB of RAM. The phone also has a 3250 mAh battery which can give more than a day of battery life. On top of that, the phone also has IP67 waterproofing, a full HD 1080p screen, and pretty good quality front-facing speakers.
The only downsides of the phone come in the form of no MicroSD card slot as well as no 3.5mm headphone jack. Since the OS has almost zero bloatware, the MicroSD card can be forgiven to some extent, however, removing the headphone jack is a big let down. Another tiny let down is the phone's display, it doesn't have much to offer. The phone features a bland and lifeless screen out of the box and you'd need to change color presets after downloading a different app.
However, that depends on each person's taste, it's not a major issue. Overall, the phone is pretty decent and doesn't cost as much as some of the other options on this list. Starting at $649, you can purchase the phone from here.
Dubbed as "the next big thing", Samsung's flagship phone for 2017 was a big hit, and for good reason. It's a big phone, literally. At about 6.2 inches, one would think the screen is massive, venturing into the Galaxy Note territory. However, most of the size comes from the phone's height and it surprisingly works well, it doesn't feel like you're carrying a tablet around.
If you can't handle the large screen, then there's always the smaller 5.8-inch regular Galaxy s8, however, this one works fine too. The phone, as you would expect has top-level specs and performs like a flagship model as well. If you're upgrading from previous models, then the transition may be a bit rocky at first, because the phone takes on a new design route different from previous phones. The Galaxy s8 doesn't have the oval home buttons the previous phones did, which adds to its 'tall' look. Adjusting to a button-less screen may take time, but it's worth it.
Before newer 2018 phones came along, the s8 had arguably the best camera among all the phones in 2017. Coupled with the phone's "Infinity Display", the phone really stole the show last year. Even though the phone has a great camera, snappy performance, and perhaps the best screen of any 2017 phone, it's far from perfect. No home button means that the phone's fingerprint scanner has been relegated to the back alongside the camera lens which makes it really awkward and hard to unlock the phone using fingerprints.
Samsung tried to tackle the fingerprint problem with a new Iris scanner but that's also far from perfect. Moreover, Samsung's attempt at their own 'Siri' in the form of Bixby. However, Bixby isn't at the same level as Siri or Google Assistant yet, so there's that. Although the newer S9 is out, if you don't want to spend a lot of money on the newer version, then this one will last you a long time as well.
Best Mid Market phone
Of course, the One Plus 5T would be on this list. Don't let the "Mid-Market" tag fool you, the latest One Plus flagship is a thing of beauty. It has picked up from where the One Plus 5 left off and improved it even further. It's the perfect choice for anyone looking for a high-end smartphone that doesn't cost a thousand dollars.
The phone has a 6-inch FHD+ screen and a Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 processor. Alongside 6-8GB of ram, it's almost impossible for the phone to get stuck, the phone makes zero compromises when it comes to performance. As is the case with other One Plus phones, the phone does not have a MicroSD card slot, however, it makes up for it by giving users an option to choose from 64 to 128 GB internal memory with the former being the minimum, thus, allowing users adequate space on their phones even without an SD card.
The camera, although good, isn't what people may hope for it to be. You'd expect more from a 16 MP front and back camera. Again, the camera is good, but one would expect better given that other phones can do much better with lesser MP cameras. The battery on the phone, however, is great. A 3300 mAh battery gives the phone enough juice to last a long while, and the best part is, the phone only costs around $600.
Best Value phones
Motorolla Moto G5
Although the phone comes under the "Best valued" section, it has all the essentials and then some. The phone, although only costing just under $200, has a lot of tech given its low price tag. It's certainly not a case of quantity over quality either as the phone passes almost all of the tests a phone should pass in order for it to qualify as a decent phone.
The Moto G5 comes in two variants, the only real differences being the amount of RAM being offered on both the phones. One variant comes with 2 GB of RAM, whereas the other variant has 3 GB. The RAM, combined with the Snapdragon ensures the phone has minimal performance hiccups. The phone also comes with a 12 MP rear camera which is decent. Overall, you get more out of the device than what you're paying for.
However, the device is all but perfect. Given that the previous Moto models were water resistant, it's a bit disappointing that the Moto G5 isn't. Water resistance is something many big phone companies advertise nowadays since more and more people find it very useful to have. Moreover, if previous phones had it, then it feels like a downgrade to not have it in this one.
Another thing missing in the Moto G5 is the NFC chip. The NFC chip is actually pretty useful especially for making online payments through systems such as Google Pay. However, most people can get by without these two things and it shouldn't be hard to adapt to other things even if you heavily relied on the two above mentioned features. Overall, the phone is really good and well worth the money, deserving its spot in the MIA's longlist.
