Travel insurance is one of those niggly things that you hope you don't need but need to get anyway. Need is such a strong word – but I assure you it is absolutely necessary.
You said you don't plan on getting injured while going overseas. The same can be said for any traveller! Accidents aren't planned.
Bad things can happen to people who go bungy jumping from a place without a license or who eat from backstreet stalls. Bad things can also happen to people who stay inside all day. Read: bad things happen to people!
Bad things also tend to happen more to travelers. This study says tourists are twice as likely to be A&E's than locals. This is likely due to foreigners being naive, confused, or generally unaware of hazards in the country they are visiting.
But please don't cancel your flights just yet. Yes bad things happen to tourists, but this is just a fact of life. It's unlikely something will happen to you, but you should rest assured knowing you have options.
Enter travel insurance. Travel insurance isn't just for medical emergencies. It can also cover theft, lost baggage and even missed flights sometimes. What your travel insurance covers differs for each offer.
Unlike flights, there is no handy site that takes each package and compares them. You need to do all the legwork. But to save time, there are a few things you can look for.
Firstly is cost. Keep it mind that cost is not always indicative of how many benefits are offered. The first instinct is to choose a high cost package as it presumably covers more but this quite simply isn't the case.
While you shouldn't get the cheapest, most basic package, you should be wary of price. After all, costs are determined on a daily basis. So a small difference in daily prices can lead to a monumental difference.
Next you need to learn what the different benefits mean. Travel insurance policies use some tricky terminology. However be aware that the definition for one policy may not be the same for another. So try and stay clear of blanket definitions. Instead check for individual policies.
Once you have an idea what kind of benefits you require, you can determine which kind of cover you need. Usually insurers offer basic and comprehensive packages. Some offer other packages alongside these.
Since you are traveling for such a short amount of time, it is unlikely you need a comprehensive package. But this is completely up to you. The best case scenario is finding a comprehensive package for a standard package's price. However this is like unicorns tears – rare and incredibly valuable.
Once you have selected your package, there are a few things you need before you can make your purchase. This includes travel dates and possibly proof of Visa.
In short: Finecomb through policy wording.

UC San Diego Moores Cancer Center launched a bold plan today aimed at personalizing cancer treatment. The "My Answer to Cancer" team of oncologists, bioinformaticians, pathologists and geneticists pledges to "sequence" or analyze the DNA of large numbers of patients with cancer in order to match each patient to the best available drug for his or her particular tumor. There will be two parallel approaches: a research approach to discover new mutations that cause cancer and a patient-care approach that will use confirmed mutations and other DNA abnormalities to direct patients to clinical studies of agents targeting these abnormalities. … Read the full story from the UC San Diego Newsroom.

Winx's scheduled comeback has been delayed until Monday, as officials decided to postpone Saturday's card at Randwick due to extreme temperatures.
"Racing New South Wales and the Australian Turf Club believed that animal welfare and the welfare of the participants should be the only consideration when making this decision," Racing NSW chief executive Peter V'landys said.
Successful on her last 13 appearances, Winx, officially rated the best turf horse in the world, will match the fabled 1930 Melbourne Cup hero Phar Lap if she repeats last year's victory in the Star Apollo Stakes, a 7f Group 2 worth A$250,000 (£152,374/€178,842) at Royal Randwick.
The dual Cox Plate heroine is due to face 11 rivals, including Godolphin's Hartnell, Highclere Thoroughbred Racing's Libran and Irish import Endless Drama, in baking hot conditions.
Trainer Chris Waller, whose stable star will be ridden by Hugh Bowman, described Winx's preparation for the race as faultless.
"She's a bit stronger and a bit heavier but she's come together very well," he told the Australian media. "I couldn't be happier.
"She's now not just my horse, the owner's horse or Hugh Bowman's horse, she is the general public's. We're aware of that and try to keep things as simple as we can."
Winx, who has some way to go to rival Black Caviar's unbeaten stretch of 25, is likely to be pointed at the Queen Elizabeth Stakes on April 8 after the weekend and could travel to Britain next year for Royal Ascot, but Caulfield Cup winner Jameka, who takes on Qatar Racing's Arod in the Group 1 CF Orr Stakes at Caulfield on Saturday, is pencilled in for the trip this term with the Qipco-sponsored King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes an option.

Brandon Bowsky "The Science Gym"
December 30, 2020 December 30, 2020 goodpress
Imagine if you could work out in a gym for 20-30 minutes, but get the benet of a two-hour workout. That's exactly what Brandon Bowsky has made possible with a new health and wellness facility in Boca Raton.
The Science Gym is unique. It contains special exercise equipment that, up until now, has been reserved almost exclusively for celebrities, athletes or the very wealthy. Brandon explained, "I have designed a concept that gives people access to this equipment at a reasonable cost when compared to alternatives like personal training."
Brandon had a far from wealthy upbringing that didn't offer great opportunity, but he was always into yoga, health and wellness — and always had an innate drive to succeed.
With hard work, Brandon became the owner of a number of businesses: insurance agencies, a lead generation company and a consulting business. His passion for fitness led him to begin researching the biohacking movement that uses science and technology to optimize health. He learned about new, cutting-edge exercise equipment with which users can make the most possible progress in the least possible time — without risk of injury. He found that there are only a handful of facilities in the country that utilize all of these different pieces of equipment, but with a drawback: their clients are predominantly the very affluent and pricing can be a bit difficult for the average joe to afford.
"There is another facility like this in South Florida but nothing like this local to Boca Raton — and in my experience, some competitors' employees were abrasive and I just don't think there's any place for that kind of disposition in this space," Brandon said. On the other hand, he is very transparent about having made over a half-a-million dollar investment in this new facility and how through the four tiers of memberships, this equipment will be accessible to all, regardless of status. "This is a passion project for me more than it is a business, I have several successful businesses, but this is about changing lives," he explained.
Upon entering this upscale gym, you can't help but be impressed with the clean, space-age feel, state-of-the-art equipment, and the obvious thought that went into the entire design. Spacious showers are something out of home magazine, with changing rooms that include closets to match and a relaxing lounge area with big-screen TVs showing informative videos about the concepts of the equipment as well as a screen for entertainment and video games.
One separate area features a huge stepin Cryotherapy chamber that surrounds users with liquid nitrogen, which rapidly cools them for a few minutes. This reduces inflammation, helps recovery from injuries, and — one of the best perks — it can burn as much as 800 calories per three-minute session.
Another area has a "Vasper," a low impact machine for HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training). To workout with the Vasper, the client wears compression garments that are lled with 42 degree water and are worn on the thighs, arms and neck while sitting on a cold water cushion on what looks like a reclining elliptical machine. The cold sleeves and cushion keep the body temperature lower, which slows the heart rate and results in faster muscle recovery. Just 21 minutes on this piece of equipment is equal to up to two hours of cardiovascular benefits via a workout that is safe, and low impact. This is what many professional athletes use for rehabilitation after an injury or a surgery, and it promotes optimal heart health. Brandon said, "I am uberpassionate about this project. I hope to healthfully live to 150 and want to offer others that same opportunity."
Equally impressive are unique apparatuses called "ARX" machines, which stands for Adaptive Resistance Exercise. These machines let you set your start and finish positions and provide full range of motion while allowing you to exert the maximum amount of force through the entire range of motion — providing the MOST EFFECTIVE and SAFEST weight training experience.
Additionally there are a variety of other offerings, such as Red Light Therapy Panels, a Somadome Meditation Pod, Nano-Vi which is an immune-boosting and oxidative stress relief device, a state-of-the-art massage chair and more!
There will only be a handful of people in the facility at a time (respectful of social distancing and COVID-19), and each will be guided by a team member, much like having a personal trainer.
After finishing a workout, clients are rewarded in the charming "bar" area with a complimentary health beverage such as an amino acid or protein drink. As Brandon reiterated, "This used to be available only to the privileged few. There is nothing like this around. I'd like to see everyone have access
to the best equipment possible."

An amazing cinematic work! The noir feel and intensely contrasted colours mixed with the amazing voice narration create a fantastic lasting film. Congrats!
That gave me chills. A mastery of all disciplines embodies in a wonderful work.
Wonderously spun, wonderfully narated, and wickedly creative!
This is amazing. Beautiful animation style and music. This film deserves its rewards it has won!
That was so wonderful! I loved it.
Yeah, fantastic short. Alas, Vimeo's far too choppy and eratic. Constant blips and stops destroyed your terrific rhyme scheme.
Simply marvelous. I really enjoyed the narrator's voice and the whole style of animation. The poem was fantastic. You deserve every award you've received for this masterpiece.
This is truely an amazing short, probably the best i've ever seen. My friend, Annika and I fell in love with the style of the cats you all drew them in. My boyfriend, Charles absolutely adores the poetry as it is his life's passion. I recited it to him over the phone and he loves it. The animation is so smooth, especially with the cigarette smoke throughout the film it looks almost alive.
The dark and sinister themes sent chills up my spine as i watched it, and probably the darkest part of the whole film for me was when The cats all pounce on 'the organ grinder' and claw at him. Also, how you drew the waves gave the situation a feeling i get during a horrendous thunderstorm.
Truely an amazing piece, i watch it to calm myself down if i'm ever filled with a negative feeling.
This… was beautiful. My tongue was wrestling with my heart in my throat at some bits… it's stunning. Absolutely, I cannot imagine what time it took to make this.
I really am at a loss for colorful vocabulary, this speaks for itself.
It's beautiful… Inspiring and makes me want to create works just as breathtaking as this, I wish I knew where to begin.
The most spectacular animated short I've ever seen.
I would love this, but the narrator voice is so annoying and ugly, raw and ugh- sorry!
The rest is just fabulous, but I just can't listen.
This is absolutely beautiful. I had to watch it three times in a tow before I could sit back and reflect on it.
This is absolutely beautiful. I had to watch it three times in a row before I could sit back and reflect on it.
Fantastic piece of poetry, animation and musical brilliance!
Wow! Really beautiful! Love the atmosphere!
I like that! I think it has a pretty good chance of winning at the Oscars. Even though I'm a big Pixar fan, I won't be unhappy if The Cat Piano wins over Partly Cloudy.
The Cat Piano.. Just Brilliant!
The story reminds me somehow of Murakami's Kafka on the Shore, where "Johnnie Walken" kills cats to collect their souls and make a special flute. Beautiful animation by the way.
Gorgeous animation and quite an amazing noir feeling, only intensified by those final chilling moments. A beautiful poem and a pitch-perfect narration achieve a flawless overall execution.
Beautiful film! I haven't been that entranced by an animated film since Cowboy Bebop! Absolutely brilliant.
schau dir das mal an! doll, was?
My heart sang with the beauty of this piece. Loved it, loved it, loved it.
I'm sorry, but, for me, it was a great disappointment. My aural imagination goes crazy when I try to imagine a Cat Piano. I dearly wish the group had put more thought/heart/insanity into the sounds of the piano itself. We were told in the narration of the colors of various things. We would have liked to see those things as well.
The nit pickiest of all: Too much blue. I love blue, but there was too much of it here/there. I would like to see the next creation!
I love the way you use color to elicit emotion from this piece. By far one of the best work I've seen.
I disagree with Dan's assessment. The piano sounded TERRIBLE and that is the point, cats in pain should never sound beautiful, not even horribly beautiful. I was a cat owner, nobody wants to hear a nail going through a cat's tail. The shrieks used in the film were chilling enough and made me think of my old cat. Colour is over rated sometimes and the blues/greys/red and dash of white were sufficient for this piece. It is a brooding piece, told through the voice of a (starving) poet. Starving for sanity mostly in this short and starving for love. My world certainly looks that blue and grey when I'm depressed and have been driven to insanity. I do agree that it'd be nice to see colour in the NEXT piece but I love "The Cat Piano" as it is, noir-esque, almost like an old black and white film, jazzy and smokey, hazy with the dreams (or nightmares) of buskers and hookers.
This has been the best short video, I have ever had the pleasure to watch to my leisure.
It's… It's amazing!I simply don't find words! I am shaken. Thanks you for work.
Absolutely stunning and almost lyrical. A modern slice of poetry for the masses.
The music, the animation, the narration, the poem, all brilliant and beautifully created!
I realy liked that she-cat with the white pelt,and she ain't exactly bad lookin.

LIVE IN MANILA
James Taylor cancelled his concert in the Philippines to protest Rodrigo Duterte's war on drugs

Like the Donald, like Duterte.
As Donald Trump struggles to find musicians to perform at his inauguration, the Philippines' Rodrigo Duterte finds himself in a similar situation. As a protest against the president's war on drugs, James Taylor decided to cancel his concert in Manila.
Taylor, a Grammy Award-winning musician and Presidential Medal of Freedom recipient, was set to perform in February, but a statement from his Twitter account on Dec. 21 announced he will no longer visit the Philippines during his Asia-Pacific tour. "I don't think of my music as being particularly political but sometimes one is called upon to make a political stand," he said.
He acknowledged the importance of combatting the illegal drug trade but expressed concern about the increasing number of extrajudicial killings linked to Duterte's crackdown.
Taylor himself battled with drug addiction in the 1960s. He was hooked on heroin early in his career and later on methadone, an opioid used to reduce symptoms that come with drug withdrawal. Many of Taylor's songs reflect this struggle and carry themes about addiction and salvation.
Duterte's controversial tactics to rid the Philippines of illegal drugs has claimed more than 6,000 lives. In a recent survey, a majority of Filipinos said they were worried one of their family members would be killed in his war on drugs, but many retain positive views about the administration.

Bruce Rondón (born December 9, 1990) is a Venezuelan professional baseball pitcher for the Diablos Rojos del México of the Mexican League. He played in Major League Baseball for the Detroit Tigers in 2013 and from 2015 through 2017 and for the Chicago White Sox in 2018. Rondón's fastball has exceeded .

Playing career

Early minor league career (2007–2012)
Rondón signed with the Detroit Tigers organization as an international free agent on September 12, 2007. He first played with the organization in 2008 as a member of the Venezuelan Summer League Tigers (VSL). He started 13 games, compiling a 2–6 win–loss record and a 3.58 earned run average (ERA). In 2009, Rondón appeared in six games, starting the year with the Gulf Coast League Tigers (GCL). He made three starts, registering an 0–1 record and a 4.76 ERA. On July 10, he rejoined the VSL Tigers and made three relief appearances, posting an ERA of 13.50.

Rondón split the 2010 season between the GCL Tigers and the Lakeland Flying Tigers of the Class A-Advanced Florida State League (FSL), appearing in a combined total of 28 games, all of them as a reliever. He made 24 appearances in the GCL, leading the league with 15 saves. Rondón ended the season in the GCL with 20 consecutive scoreless outings and during that stretch, which covered 21 innings, he struck out 23 opponents. GCL hitters had a .133 batting average against Rondón, the best mark for all GCL relief pitchers in 2010. He was named a GCL all–star in 2010. Rondón finished the minor league season with four appearances for Lakeland, after he joined the Flying Tigers on August 24. Rondón spent all of 2011 with the West Michigan Whitecaps of the Class A Midwest League, appearing in 41 games before trouble with his right shoulder ended his season in August. He gathered 19 saves and posted a 2.03 ERA with the Whitecaps, and was named to appear in the 2011 Midwest League All-Star game Late in the year, Baseball America ranked Rondón as Detroit's 12th-highest prospect. The previous year, he had been rated 13th.

Rondón started the 2012 season on Lakeland's roster, but he was promoted to the Erie SeaWolves of the Class AA Eastern League on June 20 and then to the Toledo Mud Hens of the Class AAA International League on August 7. Between the three teams, Rondón saved 29 games and posted an ERA of 1.53 while striking out 66 opponents. His save total was the third-highest for a minor leaguer. He was named to appear in the 2012 All-Star Futures Game. He retired two hitters on four fastballs, with one fastball registering  on the Kaufman Stadium radar gun.

Rondón was recognized as Detroit's Minor League Pitcher of the Year and in June, he was the organization's Minor League Pitcher of the Month. Baseball America picked Rondón as the top reliever in both the Eastern League and the FSL.

Detroit Tigers (2013–2017)

Tigers general manager Dave Dombrowski referred to Rondón as a "rare talent" after the 2012 season, and indicated that he could become the Tigers closer in 2013. Rondón struggled early in spring training, but began to improve with mechanical changes. The Tigers optioned Rondón to Toledo for the start of the 2013 season. They promoted him to the major leagues on April 23, but did not use him as their closer.  He made his Major League debut on April 25, 2013 against the Kansas City Royals.  He entered the game in relief in the eighth inning.  His first batter faced was Billy Butler, who singled to right field. His pitching line for this first inning was two hits, one run scored.

Bruce returned to Toledo in early May, where he posted 14 saves and a 1.52 ERA, with 40 strikeouts and 13 walks in 29 innings. The Tigers recalled him to the major league club on June 28, 2013. He earned his first major league save on August 30, 2013 against the Cleveland Indians. He posted a 3.45 ERA in his first major league season, striking out 30 batters in 28 innings.

Expected to be one of the Tigers' primary setup men for 2014, Rondón underwent Tommy John surgery to repair a torn ligament in his right elbow during spring training. After the procedure, Rondón missed the entire 2014 season. He returned to pitch for the Tigers midway through the 2015 season. On September 22, 2015, Rondón was sent home by the Tigers due to their displeasure with his effort level. In 35 appearances this season, he posted a 1–0 record, with five saves in nine opportunities, a 5.81 ERA, a 1.61 WHIP, and 36 strikeouts. In 31 innings, he allowed 31 hits and 19 walks, while issuing a team-high 5.5 walks per nine innings.

Preparing for the 2016 season, Rondón lost  and made mechanical changes to his delivery. The Tigers optioned Rondón to the Mud Hens on March 28, 2016. Rondón was recalled to the Tigers on June 19, 2016, and he pitched two scoreless innings of relief against the Kansas City Royals. Rondón made 37 relief appearances in the 2016 season, compiling a 5–2 record with a 2.97 ERA and 45 strikeouts in  innings.

On January 13, 2017, the Tigers avoided arbitration with Rondón, agreeing on a one-year, $850,000 contract. He appeared in the 2017 World Baseball Classic for the Venezuelan national baseball team. During the 2017 season, Rondón pitched , allowing 19 runs on 21 hits, before he was demoted to Toledo. The Tigers did not include Rondón in their September call-ups. He was non-tendered and became a free agent on December 1, 2017. His major league career with the Tigers ended with a 5.00 ERA and seven saves in 123 relief appearances.

Chicago White Sox
On February 1, 2018, Rondón signed a minor league contract with the Chicago White Sox. He had his contract purchased on April 8, 2018. He entered the game that same day against the Tigers striking out all four batters he faced. He was designated for assignment on July 12 after posting an ERA of 8.49 in  innings. He elected free agency on July 17, 2018.

Mexican League
On April 20, 2020, Rondón signed with the Rieleros de Aguascalientes of the Mexican League. Rondón did not play in a game in 2020 due to the cancellation of the Mexican League season because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

On March 10, 2021, Rondón signed with the Sultanes de Monterrey. However, he was released prior to the season on May 5, 2021, due to an injury to his throwing arm. Rondón signed with Aguascalientes for the 2022 season on March 21, 2022. On June 21, 2022, he was traded to the Diablos Rojos del México.

Pitching style

Rondón relies heavily on a hard four-seam fastball in the  range, which he frequently throws at or above . His other pitches include a slider in the  range, a changeup in the  range, and an occasional sinker in the upper 90s, which he is still developing.

Personal life
Rondón is named after Bruce Lee.

Okay we now know that there was a massacre in Egypt by their military to clear the protest by Muslim Brotherhood and the world kept quiet somewhat and even some Arab countries supported the crackdown (massacre?!) and also in Egypt there were people who fully came out behind the military assault against their own people and this crackdown reminds me of the time Iran had a similar episode a few years ago when the opposition came out and said that the election was rigged and they demanded a new election. And there was also crackdown and the west was more vocal in that situation. But here the difference starts because even if the Iranian had cracked down hard on the protesters they were under sanctions from the west and so they had no reason to listen to the outside world regarding whatever they were doing. But the Egypt regime is being sustained by the U.S. and it had influence over the events happening and still it did not do anything to prevent the crackdown and also its allies in the Arab world backed this crackdown too. So the logic comes here that if you are friend of the west and rely on their aid, you can crack down on your people and the west will look the other way but if you are not a friend (like Iran), you will even scream if there is a killing of a few people. So by comparison, I see the hypocrisy of the west when it comes to allies and enemies. There should be equal condemnation in both cases and more so in the case of a country where you are giving billions of dollars in aid. But I guess that is what you call politics.


Have you ever tabled an idea because you thought your boss wouldn't be on board? It is critical to understand how the leaders of your company or organization think before you pitch ideas to them. Here's how to ensure decision-makers hear your ideas.
Leaders on your board or in the C-suite compare new ideas to the goals of the organization. The majority of business goals are usually broken down into four categories: organizational growth, keeping stakeholders happy, value and agility. Think about how quickly your idea can be implemented and at what cost.
Know what problems matter most to them.
Think about what business issues are of most importance to your boss. If your president communicated that the most pressing concern is obtaining sponsorships, for example, think about how your idea can help achieve that goal.
Knowing and understanding the customer is critical for organizational effectiveness. Will your idea help grow attendance for next year or add to your company's bottom line? Bosses think about the customers and the feedback they are providing about your product, so you should too.
Executives listen to pitches that have the greatest impact on solving a problem. Is your idea effective? Can it deliver solutions? Will your idea deliver a return on investment? Will the benefits outweigh the costs? Can you provide hard facts and accurate data to back up your idea?
Leaders have limited time. They run from one meeting to the next, so if you can't describe your idea in 30 seconds or less, you're likely to get a no. Being concise is a fundamental skill to getting your idea heard.
Put yourself in the eyes of your boss: What do others within the organization think about you? Are your ideas credible? If your ideas are always being rejected, you may want to examine your reputation. If you have said or done something that has damaged your reputation within the organization, you may want to consider moving on and starting over.
Ideas that support what is currently going on within an organization are usually considered, but some ideas can be too forward-thinking. Perhaps the idea requires more time to garner buy-in and support from additional departments. Hang onto it and wait patiently for a time when your organization is ready and able to implement it.

Major U.S. airline enacts strict no mask, no travel policy
Steven Devadanam
Jun 18, 2020 | 2:59 pm
Those who refuse to wear a mask on United will be placed on a travel restriction list.
While Americans are currently free to choose whether or not to wear masks in public, those who opt not to cover their face while traveling on United Airlines will face serious consequences.
The carrier announced that any passenger who does not comply with the mandatory mask policy when onboard a United flight will be placed on an internal travel restriction list. Customers on this list will lose their travel privileges on United for a duration of time to be determined, pending a comprehensive incident review, according to a press release.
The move is in conjunction with a consortium of airlines — including Alaska Airlines, American Airlines, Delta Air Lines, Hawaiian Airlines, JetBlue Airways, and Southwest Airlines — dubbed Airlines for America. On June 15, the consortium announced it will be "vigorously enforcing face covering policies" for travelers.
United currently requires all passengers to wear a face covering onboard during the duration of its flights. That policy will be in effect for at least another 60 days, according to the airline. Exceptions to the policy extend only to flyers who have a medical condition or a disability that prevents them from wearing a face covering, those who cannot put on or remove a face covering themselves, and small children.
Here's how the policy will be enforced real-time, according to United:
Currently, if a flight attendant notices or is informed of a customer onboard who is not wearing a face covering and that passenger does not fall within an exception, the flight attendant will inform the customer that face coverings are mandatory for all customers and crew on board. They will also offer to provide the customer with a mask if needed.
If the customer continues to be non-compliant, flight attendants will do their best to de-escalate the situation, again inform the customer of United's policy, and provide the passenger with a mask policy reminder card.
If a customer continues to not comply, the flight attendant will file a report of the incident, which will initiate a formal review process. Decisions or actions regarding a customer's future flight benefits will be determined after the flight has reached its destination and a security team has investigated the incident.
"Every reputable health institution says wearing a mask is one of the most effective things people can do to protect others from contracting COVID-19, especially in places like an aircraft where social distancing is a challenge," said United's chief customer officer, Toby Enqvist, in a statement. "We have been requiring our customers to wear masks onboard United aircraft since May 4 and we have been pleased that the overwhelming majority of passengers readily comply with our policy. Today's announcement is an unmistakable signal that we're prepared to take serious steps, if necessary, to protect our customers and crew."
As CultureMap previously reported, United has instituted a pre-flight COVID-19 checklist for all travelers in order to ensure safe travel.

Freeze Preparation
How to prepare for inclement winter weather in San Antonio this weekend
Photo by Zac Durant on Unsplash
The lowest temperatures of the season are expected in San Antonio this weekend.
Well, the weather outside really is frightful this week, with a strong cold front forecasted to move through the San Antonio area. The arctic blast will bring the coldest temperatures we have seen this season, and temperatures are expected to drop below 20 degrees on Thursday night and Friday morning.
According to a release from the City of San Antonio, CPS Energy has strengthened the resiliency of is power plants against sustained freezing temperatures by implementing winterization initiatives. While ERCOT expects sufficient generation to meet forecasted demand, CPS Energy "urges energy conservation to help residents save money on their bills," the release says.
With that in mind, the city, county, and their partners strongly urge all residents to prepare for cold weather by remembering the Four Ps: People, Pets, Plants, and Pipes. Here's everything you need to know for those four concerns, provided by the City of San Antonio:
Keep warm and dress in layers. Check on family, friends, and neighbors who may be more vulnerable to this week's cold weather or may not have access to housing and heating, including the elderly and those with special needs. The San Antonio Fire Department recommends the following:
Keep anything that can burn at least three feet away from heating equipment, like the furnace, fireplace, wood stove, or portable space heater.
Install and maintain CO (carbon monoxide) alarms to avoid the risk of CO poisoning.
Never use your oven to heat your home.
Never use a generator indoors.
Always plug portable heaters directly into a wall socket (no power strips).
Remember to turn portable heaters off when leaving the room or going to bed.
Never leave children unattended in a room with a space heater.
Test smoke alarms at least once a month.
311 Customer Service is open from 7 am to midnight on Thursday, December 22, and Friday, December 23. 311 will operate throughout the holidays from 8 am to 5 pm. Residents may call 311 (210-207-6000) or use the 311 SA mobile app.
Rental Property Tips
Landlords are obligated to maintain their rental properties to the minimum standards set by the San Antonio Property Maintenance Code (Sec 6-52). Heating equipment must be able to maintain a minimum inside temperature of 60 degrees Fahrenheit (measured three feet above the floor). To report suspected violations, call 311.
Warming Centers
The city and county will open seven warming centers to offer short-term emergency shelter starting December 22 at 3 pm:
Normoyle Community Center — 700 Culberson Ave.
South Side Lions Senior Center — 3303 Pecan Valley Dr.
Garza Community Center — 1450 Mira Vista
Christ the King Lutheran Church – 1129 Pat Booker Rd., Universal City
Emergency Services District 5 – 7120 E. 6th S., Somerset
Emergency Services District 3 – 23103 Bulverde Rd.
Emergency Services District 7 – 11617 Galm Rd.
Anyone coming to the center should bring clothes, supplies, and medicine. Kennels will be available for pets at Normoyle, South Side Lions, and Garza centers. VIA passengers may travel fare-free to or from a warming center, and residents may also call 311 to request a trip to a warming center.
Unsheltered Individuals
Last week, the city and its nonprofit partners began contacting unsheltered individuals to provide them with warm weather clothing, blankets, transportation, shelter, and meal information. Haven for Hope has expanded intake hours and emergency bed capacity, and Communities Under the Bridge will open for meals and shelter December 22-25. The Homeless Connections Hotline (210-207-1799) is available Monday through Friday, 8 am to 4:30 pm and will remain open until 8 pm on December 22 and 23.
Pets should be brought indoors and provided with a warm place to sleep. State law dictates dogs cannot be tethered with any size chain at any time; it also states dogs cannot be left outdoors restrained and unattended in the case of officially defined extreme weather or situations in which an animal is in severe distress including conditions in which the actual or effective outdoor temperature is below 32 degrees Fahrenheit.
Animal Care Officers will be on patrol through the rest of the week. Potential violators can face impoundment of their pet, fines up to $2,000 and 180 days in jail for repeat offenders. To report suspected violations, call 311.
Farm animals and livestock rely on their humans to protect them and keep them safe.
Have adequate food and water. Animals and livestock should have plenty of food and a steady supply of water. During extremely cold temperatures, water will freeze. You will need to break up ice or replace the frozen water.
Provide warm bedding. Make sure that there is adequate bedding for each animal.
Add extra feed. Animals need to eat more in cold weather to provide extra calories for heat energy.
Plants may need to be covered or brought inside to avoid frost damage.
San Antonio Water System reminds residents:
Allow one internal faucet to slowly drip to keep water moving in your pipes during coldest temperatures.
If your home has plumbing in cabinets on outside walls without insulation, leave the cabinet doors open to allow warmer indoor air to circulate.
Cover and insulate outdoor pipes. Local hardware stores have foam insulation and faucet protectors, but even wrapping pipes with rags or newspapers will do.
Know where your meter cutoff valve is. If pipes freeze, SAWS has created a video on how to turn off water at the meter, which you can view in English or Spanish.
CPS Energy crews are prepared to respond to any local weather-related outages. High winds are in the forecast, and CPS Energy reminds residents to stay away from downed power lines and report them at 210-353-4357 (HELP). Do not attempt to move or drive over the lines.
Residents can sign up for Energy Alerts online or call 210-353-2222. For additional winter safety tips, go here.

Do Not Feed the Monkeys is a 2018 adventure and life simulation video game developed by the Spanish company Fictiorama Studios and published by Alawar Premium for Windows and PlayStation 4.

Gameplay
Do Not Feed the Monkeys casts the player as a spy who monitors multiple live video feeds via an in-game desktop computer. The player gathers information about people and objects caught on these feeds, while managing life simulation elements such as the player character's health and apartment rent. Although the player is told not to interact with the people under surveillance, it is possible to do so, which provides bonuses but endangers the player character.

Development
Fictiorama conceived Do Not Feed the Monkeys around the time that it completed its debut game, Dead Synchronicity. Hoping to explore the concept of voyeurism, the team drew inspiration from the film Rear Window and the website Insecam, which allows users to view unsecure surveillance camera footage from around the world. According to Fictiorama's Luis Oliván, the company's chief goal with Do Not Feed the Monkeys was player immersion coupled with a sense of agency. Nevertheless, the game also provides social commentary on issues related to mass surveillance and social media.

Reception
Do Not Feed the Monkeys was nominated for three awards at the 2019 Independent Games Festival, including the Seumas McNally Grand Prize. HobbyConsolas named it one of 2018's best Spanish-made games, and Edge España nominated it for the magazine's "Spanish Video Game of the Year" award, although the game lost to The Red Strings Club. Edge Españas editors similarly nominated Fictiorama as their pick for 2018's best Spanish game developer, a distinction that ultimately went to Nomada Studio for its work on Gris. The game also won the award for "Best FS Play" at the 2018 Titanium Awards; in addition, it was nominated for "Independent Creator" at the 2020 Webby Awards.

Home Lifestyle Crypto Currencies Ellen DeGeneres Finally Breaks 'Bullying' Silence – And Boy, Was it Fake
Ellen DeGeneres Finally Breaks 'Bullying' Silence – And Boy, Was it Fake
Ellen DeGeneres finally spoke up about her show's toxic workplace.
She did so by issuing a "memo" to her staff.
The memo threw her producer under the proverbial bus, focused on her own past experiences, and was overall as fake and as narcissistic as she is.
Ellen DeGeneres is saying sorry.
After months of being under fire for her non-stop viciousness towards her employees, the former queen of the "Be Kind" movement has issued a letter apologizing to her staff for all the things they'd been going through since time immemorial.
Too bad the apology rings hollow.
Only Ellen DeGeneres Could Make Her Apology All About Her
In a demonstration of what could only be called "extreme narcissism," Ellen DeGeneres wrote an obsequious memo that was e-mailed to all of her long-suffering employees.
In the memo, which was obtained by The Hollywood Reporter, she took no responsibility for the toxic work environment she created, choosing instead to blame her senior employees while announcing that they were getting fired.
Alongside Warner Bros, we immediately began an internal investigation and we are taking steps, together, to correct the issues. As we've grown exponentially, I've not been able to stay on top of everything and relied on others to do their jobs as they knew I'd want them done. Clearly some didn't. That will now change and I'm committed to ensuring this does not happen again.
She then went on to explain how, somehow, she was a victim in all of this.
As someone who was judged and nearly lost everything for just being who I am, I truly understand and have deep compassion for those being looked at differently, or treated unfairly, not equal, or — worse — disregarded.
And Ellen DeGeneres finally capped off this display of narcissism with an almost-pathetic request for people to not get her show canceled.
I am so proud of the work we do and the fun and joy we all help put out in the world. I want everyone at home to love our show and I want everyone who makes it to love working on it.
This is so gross.
Seriously, Does Anyone Really Believe She's Sorry?
As was mentioned yesterday, it truly beggars belief that Ellen DeGeneres had absolutely no idea about what was going on in the halls of her show.
The orders, for example, to not even dare to look at her as she passed through the hallways had to come from somewhere, and it's impossible to believe that Ed Glavin — the senior producer who is believed to be the first "on the chopping block" by many insiders — came up with the idea all by himself, with no input from "the top."
Ellen DeGeneres has a long-standing reputation in Hollywood for being difficult and hard to work with. It's impossible to believe that she had "no idea" she was fostering a toxic work environment — she just thought she could get away with it. | Source: Twitter
Let's also recall that back in May 2020, when the headlines first started coming out about the toxic environment that Ellen DeGeneres had fostered, she was openly dismissive of the people bringing the accusations forth.
Ellen's been in our homes for so long, it'll take a lot more than a bodyguard and a blogger to change how people feel about her. Her best response is just being happy Ellen on the show every day.
But now that the show is under investigation — now that Ellen DeGeneres credibly stands to lose everything — now that the truth is finally coming out about how awful she has been to everyone and anyone around her — she suddenly "cares"?
I don't feel sorry for Ellen DeGeneres, and neither should anyone else. She is getting exactly what she deserves, and what she really deserves is to lose everything.

Marius Aasen of Norway reclaims the lead at the end of a day that has seen some tight competition for the top spot. He leads Tom Cave by 17.9 seconds and Max Vatanen completes the current podium nearly two minutes back. Mats van den Brand nips at the Finn's heels following in just five seconds.
The second pass of Mazury (SS14) was officially cancelled before the first of our crews so everyone made their way to the re-run of Wieliczki.
The intense battle between Cave and Aasen was illustrated yet again on SS15 as Aasen took the win, only 0.2sec ahead of Cave. Recent stage winner Nil Solans slipped way off the pace reporting a lack of power. He finished in eighth position.
Aasen really set the stage alight on the second pass of Swietajno, finishing 19 seconds ahead of Cave. That was enough for the man from Norway to reclaim the pole position going into the last stage of the day; a third and final blast around Mikołajki Arena. Dutch driver Mats van den Brand finished well on the 16th stage, taking seven seconds out of Vatanen, who now only sat eight seconds in front.
British rookie Gus Greensmith closed what has been a very positive day for the young driver by winning his first stage of the event, bringing the number of individual stage victors to six over the course of the rally.
The weekend's temperatures are set to peak tomorrow here in Mikołajki and undoubtably we are in for a real fight at the finish.
