Peter Baines OAM	Travels from Sydney, NSW
Peter Baines OAM speaks about Leadership, Sustainable Leadership, Corporate Social Responsibility and Crisis Management. His is a highly inspirational presentation.
Peter Baines OAM, a former forensics officer with the NSW State Police Force developed his unique leadership style by leading international identification and recovery teams into Indonesia and Thailand following acts of terrorism and the 2004 South East Asian Tsunami. He would go on to work in the counter terrorism area of Interpol, spent time with the United Nations Office of Drug and Crime and also worked in Saudi Arabia and Japan after natural disasters to hit those countries.
But it was his work in Thailand that brought the biggest change. Touched by the children left orphaned months after the Tsunami, Peter founded an Australian charity called Hands Across the Water to support them which has gone on to create opportunities for hundreds of children across Thailand.
In January 2014, Peter was recognised in the Australia Day honours with the awarding of the Order of Australia Medal for his International Humanitarian work.
Today, Peter has a successful consulting business building engagement through corporate social responsibility and presents across the globe to major corporations and governments on Leadership. He is the author of bestselling books Hands Across the Water and Doing Good by Doing Good.
Topic areas - Leadership, inspirational, law, world affairs, social responsibility, sustainability.
Peter Baines your speech has left me in awe. Never have I seen anyone deliver the essence of leadership in such a clear, straight forward and insightful way. Your integrity and credibility is established the moment you begin.
Cadbury Schweppes
If similar calibre of speakers to Peter Baines can be guaranteed next time, I will be sure to bring others with me. Peter Baines has a wealth of experience both in Australia and overseas. He shared his stories which inspired and motivated the audience. He gained compassion and understanding from those present without even trying. Well worth attending. It was one of the most inspiring events I have attended in a long time and interesting to see how Peter Baines' natural leadership skills has taken him on such a journey.
Your talk was the high point of the three days for me. I have thought of it often and am still stunned at the work that you and your colleagues do, and the level of commitment that you bring to the job. I was also impressed with your skill in presenting a difficult and emotional topic in such an impactful way. I have been a professional communicator for over 20 years and really appreciate the skill in others when I see it. And so much of what you had to say has lessons that can be used in the leadership work I do with our senior executives here at the CBA. I would have liked to say something to you at the end of the session but couldn't really trust myself to speak?
Thank you Peter for the amazing impact you had on my team today. You literally 'knocked the ball out of the park'!! The feedback from my team was amazing - frequent references to best speaker ever and that is high praise as we have had international sports stars, high profile business leaders and media personalities speak at previous events.

Tropical Storm Aletta is spinning more than 440 miles off the southwestern coast of Mexico and using satellite data, NASA peered into the storm to uncover where the heaviest rain was falling.
Early on June 6, Tropical Depression Two-E was upgraded to Tropical Storm Aletta. This is the first tropical storm of the 2018 eastern North Pacific season. Aletta was located well southwest of Mexico.
The Global Precipitation Measurement mission or GPM core observatory satellite passed above developing tropical storm Aletta on June 6, 2018 at 0046 UTC (June 5 at 8:46 p.m. EDT).
At NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland an image of Aletta's rainfall was created using GPM precipitation measurements. The rainfall was calculated from data collected by GPM's Microwave Imager (GMI) and Dual Frequency Precipitation Radar (DPR) instruments. The satellite's GMI and DPR instruments had a good view of rainfall on Aletta's eastern side. Intense rain bands are shown by DPR spiraling into the tropical cyclone's eastern side. DPR found that rain in some of these powerful storms was falling at a rate of over 187 mm (7.4 inches).
GPM radar data (DPR Ku Band) were used to create a 3-D structure of precipitation associated with Aletta. Storm top heights were found by DPR reaching altitudes of over 12 km (10.5 miles) within powerful storms in rain bands wrapping around Aletta's eastern side. Cloud top height estimates over an area larger than the GPM swath were produced by blending measurements from GPM's radar (DPR Ku band) with cloud top heights based on the GOES-WEST satellite's infrared temperatures.
At 5 a.m. EDT (0900 UTC) on June 6, the center of Tropical Storm Aletta was located near latitude 14.6 degrees north and longitude 109.2 degrees west. That's about 445 miles (715 km) southwest of Manzanillo, Mexico. Aletta is moving toward the west near 7 mph (11 kph). A gradual turn to the west-northwest and northwest is expected during the next 2 to 3 days. Maximum sustained winds have increased to near 65 mph (100 kph) with higher gusts. The estimated minimum central pressure is 994 millibars.
The National Hurricane Center said "Some strengthening is forecast and Aletta is expected to become a hurricane later today or early Friday. There are no coastal watches or warnings in effect."

Redskins, QB Cousins need to show they can do it again
In this photo taken Oct. 4, 2015, Washington Redskins quarterback Kirk Cousins (8) passes the ball during the first half of an NFL football game against the Philadelphia Eagles in Landover, Md. Kirk Cousins proved to himself, his head coach and his teamm
Alex Brandon
ASHBURN, Va. (AP) Washington Redskins quarterback Kirk Cousins proved to himself, his teammates, his head coach and future opponents that he can direct a game-winning drive.
Now the question is: Can he do it again?
And more generally: Can the Redskins do it again?
A week after coming back to beat the visiting Philadelphia Eagles on Cousins' touchdown pass to Pierre Garcon with less than 30 seconds left, the Redskins (2-2) and their still-working-to-improve QB face a more daunting task this Sunday, traveling to play at the Atlanta Falcons (4-0).
''I just need to see him continue to get better. That's all. The more (time) he sees at quarterback, the better he's going to get. It's a firm belief that repetition is king,'' Washington coach Jay Gruden said after practice Wednesday.
''And the more reps he's going to get, quarterbacks are either going to take the next step or they're not, and we want to make sure he continues taking positive steps toward getting better and doing what ... we think he can do.''
One key stat for Cousins is turnovers: When he's had any interceptions this season, the Redskins are 0-2. When he's had zero, the team's record in 2-0.
Falcons head coach Dan Quinn, who used to be Seattle's defensive coordinator, said what has stood out to him about Cousins this season is the fourth-year passer's accuracy.
Cousins is completing 68.6 percent of his throws, which is seventh among the 31 NFL quarterbacks who have thrown at least 80 passes this season.
What's Gruden been most impressed by?
''Poise and confidence, really. I think poise, mostly,'' Gruden said. ''His ability to go back and scan the field and go to his first, second and third progression, throw the ball away when he has to, overcoming a bad series or a bad game - (that) is what we are hoping to see him continue to progress with.''
Garcon sees that step forward, too.
''Confidence, communication, the role of knowing he's the quarterback. Being comfortable in the pocket, being comfortable around us, being comfortable in the huddle,'' Garcon said. ''He's definitely naturally growing. With experience, those things come.''
The game at Atlanta will be Cousins' 15th start in the pros; he is 4-9. Like with a starting pitcher in baseball, wins are not the fairest measure of an NFL quarterback's effectiveness.
With the Redskins, winning back-to-back games has not come easily the past two seasons, no matter which QB they used.
During that span they've only done it once, in Weeks 7 and 8 in October 2014, against the Titans and Cowboys. More often, to use Gruden's phrase, they've ''laid an egg'' in the game after a victory.
''It's definitely a test. It's going to test where guys are at,'' Pro Bowl left tackle Trent Williams said. ''It's going to test: Have we really changed? Has the complexion of this team really changed?''
Notes: WR DeSean Jackson was a limited participant in his first practice since injuring his left hamstring in the Sept. 13 season opener. ''Doesn't really hurt, I don't really have that pain anymore, but obviously I've been out for weeks, so just getting acclimated, getting that flow,'' Jackson said. ''Getting that blood moving, stuff like that.'' He said ''it's possible'' he could improve enough to play against Atlanta. ... TE Jordan Reed (concussion) and CB Chris Culliver (knee) missed practice. ... Gruden laughed off a question about whether RB Matt Jones needed to earn back trust after two fumbles in the teams' first three games. Jones got only seven carries for 11 yards in Week 4; Alfred Morris had 17 carries for 62 yards. Jones, Gruden said, ''never lost my trust. A couple of weeks ago it was, `Alfred is in my doghouse,' and he's not. It's the way it works out with the handoffs and the carries. I like both of those guys.''

7 Facts About Quincy Chad (OTNB) You Might Not Know
June 24, 2016 MJ Booth Pop Files
Quincy Chad Facts
If you had to make a list of the most popular shows on television right now, "Orange is the New Black" would undoubtedly be right at the top – even though it isn't technically on TV at all, but on Netflix! Originally premiering in 2013, the show just entered its fourth season and is every bit the critical sensation it was at the beginning.
Based on the memoir by Piper Kerman of the same name and brought to life by the executive producer of a little show you may have heard of called "Weeds," "Orange is the New Black" features a huge cast of standout talents – including rising star Quincy Chad.
Related Post: Berto Colon (Cesar) from ONTB: 10 Facts!
Even if you call yourself a Quincy Chad fan, there are still a number of really interesting facts about this overnight sensation that probably weren't on your radar.
A photo posted by Quincy Chad (@quincychad) on Mar 24, 2016 at 11:09am PDT
1. Vixely Voted Him Their Hottest Bachelor in 2012
Did you know that Vixely, holder of all the ingredients for a sexy life, actually voted Quincy Chad their hottest bachelor of 2012? It's true! What makes this so interesting is that this piece was actually published in the early, early days of his career, long before "Orange is the New Black" was on anybody's radar – and before it even existed at all! Vixely certainly seems to have gotten in on the ground floor of the Quincy Cad revolution.
2. He's an Immigrant
Many people don't realize that Quincy Chad wasn't actually born in the United States, though he has lived here for the vast majority of his life. He was actually born in Trinidad and live there until he was two years old.
It was at that point that his family, looking for better opportunities and a better way of living, packed up the kids and moved to good old Brooklyn, New York.
3. He Almost Wasn't An Actor
Though it may seem hard to believe now, "star of the stage and screen" wasn't always on Quincy Chad's radar. He actually first had quite a successful little football career going, playing all-conference college football at Wesleyan University.
He was actually a really successful starting linebacker, but he would go on to say that all of that attention focused on him only made him want to be an actor even more than he already had! However, he continued to play football until he sustained injuries on the field that made a career in the NFL pretty much a non-starter, unfortunately.

4. Quincy Chad is a Stage Name
Though it's probably no surprise that sometimes actors don't go by their real name, this is very much the case in terms of Quincy Chad – sort of. His real name is actually Quincy Chad Francis. Though he has never really commented on the reason why he dropped his last name, we can only assume it's because "Quincy Chad" looks a whole lot better on a marquee.
5. He Was Critically Acclaimed Almost Immediately
Though he's a TV star now, Quincy Chad actually began his career on the stage in New York – to a huge number of rave reviews. He actually played the lead in an acclaimed play by August Wilson called "King Hedley."
It was during that run that he was scouted by other producers, leading him to play the part of Clay in "The Dutchman," among other roles.
A photo posted by Quincy Chad (@quincychad) on Aug 20, 2015 at 12:47pm PDT
6. He's Committed to His Continuing Education
People usually take acting classes and participate in continuing education in order to help land a manager or an agent, at which point they pretty much throw "education" by the wayside to focus on their career.
This wasn't true in the case of Quincy Chad, who actually CONTINUED acting classes in order to strive to be the best actor he could be even after he had already been in those plays and even after he signed with a successful management company!

7. He's Multi-Faceted
There aren't too many people who can get away with having multiple roles in the world of Hollywood. Usually actors do one thing: act. Writers tend to stick to writing, while directors may choose to dabble in both directing and writing but even those are few and far between outside of the independent world. Quincy Chad, on the other hand, wants to do it all.
Not only has he been in successful movies and on huge television shows like "Orange is the New Black," but he's also written and directed several short films over the last few years!

Received 2019 October 19; Revised 2019 November 11; Accepted 2019 November 15.
Protocadherin 19 (PCDH19)-related epilepsy is an X-linked epilepsy syndrome characterized by afebrile or febrile seizures, starting in the early years of life, and developmental delay of variable severity [1]. It is caused by mutations in PCDH19 encoding PCDH19, a protein highly expressed during brain development, that is responsible for calcium-dependent cell-to-cell interaction. The disease is of very characteristic heredity; although it is an X chromosome linked disorder, it rarely affects male individuals; this is attributed to "cellular interference," where the disease could be caused by cell-to-cell signaling between mutated and unmutated cells resulting in hemizygous men being unaffected. Here, we report the case of two Korean female siblings, in which a novel pathogenic variant of PCDH19, inherited from the father, caused different phenotypic expression.
A 23-month-old girl (Sibling 1, III:3) (Fig. 1) was brought to our emergency room after three episodes of generalized tonic clonic seizures with low-grade fever. She had been previously healthy, except for two episodes of simple febrile seizures at 11 and 20 months old, and she had normally reached the developmental milestones without autistic features. She experienced five more seizures on the day of admission, and six times more the next day, even in the absence of fever. The seizures varied in semiology, from generalized tonic clonic seizures lasting 3 to 5 minutes to brief unilateral tonic seizures lasting approximately 1 minute. Unresponsiveness with eye blinking lasting less than 1 minute was also detected. Her brain magnetic resonance imaging was normal, and there was no evidence of central nervous system infection in her cerebrospinal fluid study. She was neurologically intact without deficits and remained alert during the interictal periods, with no more seizures detected after levetiracetam infusion (30 mg/kg). We were informed that she had relevant family history; her 10-year-old sister had epilepsy and her mother had febrile seizures at an early age (Fig. 1). Her sister (Sibling 2, III:2) (Fig. 1) started experiencing febrile seizures at 13 months of age and had clustered brief seizures with or without fever similar to Sibling 1. Administration of multiple antiepileptic drugs was attempted for several years and the frequency of seizures decreased with age. In recent years, she had remained seizure free with levetiracetam monotherapy and her intelligence and social function were within the normal range, but her language skills were relatively delayed. Her mother had simple febrile seizures at an early age, which dissipated at 3 years of age and her intelligence was within the normal range.
Pedigree of the family, with two related cases of PCDH19-related infantile epileptic encephalopathy. A pathogenic PCDH19 variant, c.592_599del is found hemizygous in the father (II:1) and heterozygous in the two siblings (III:2 and III:3). The mother (II:2) is homozygous for the wild-type (WT) allele. The black symbols indicate the affected individuals.
The multitude of genes associated with epilepsy and the similarity among clinical phenotypes may complicate diagnosis; hence, we performed whole exome sequencing (WES) with the informed consent of the family members (II:1, II:2, III:2, and III:3). Family-based WES is a very powerful tool for identifying pathogenic variants using expected inheritance patterns. After screening of epilepsy-related genes, we identified a novel deletion variant (NM_001184880.1:c.592_599del) in PCDH19, which was predicted to result in frameshift and premature termination of the PCDH1 protein (p.Arg198Alafs*25) (Fig. 2). The variant was identified as a heterozygote in the two siblings (III:2 and III:3) and as a hemizygote in the father (II:1), but not in the mother (II:2). No other strong candidate genes were located in the WES results. Sibling 1 has remained seizure free for over 6 months with levetiracetam monotherapy (30 mg/kg/day) and has so far normally reached the developmental milestones.

(B) Frameshift and premature termination of the PCDH1 protein (p.Arg198Alafs*25).
Seizures usually start before 1 year of age, and the presence of fever-sensitive seizures may be clinically similar to the presentation of Dravet syndrome, but seizures in Dravet syndrome usually last longer than 15 minutes (72% of patients) and less than 5 minutes in PCDH19-related epilepsy [1]. Dravet syndrome usually involves clonic or hemiclonic-type seizures, whereas PCDH19-related epilepsy usually involves the focal or hypomotor type. Most importantly, there is a significant difference in prognosis, with remission in adolescence with variable severity of developmental delay being common in PCDH19-related epilepsy, as in our case and severe epileptic encephalopathy often seen in Dravet syndrome [2]. Regarding anticonvulsant treatment, phenytoin is reportedly effective and carbamazepine less so [3]. There have been reports of effective levetiracetam use, including in these siblings, which should be studied further [4]. Fever-sensitive seizures and prominent seizure clustering in varied patterns with short duration (<5 minutes) in girls younger than 1 year, as in our cases, can provide clues for PCDH19-related epilepsy to clinicians [1,4,5].

If people were perfect, you wouldn't need so many laws. So many rules, and regulations.
This just in: People aren't perfect! They're human beings -- even when they're wearing pinstriped suits.
So then the question is: How much do you trust them to behave themselves? And how much do you paint lane markers on the highway? And even put up the occasional stop sign, or red light?
We're talking, of course, about Wall Street. The Big Banks. The Big Investment Firms. The Big Players who love to make the Big Plays, and have the Big Salaries -- and the Even Bigger Bonuses -- to prove it.
What to give a president for his first anniversary in office? How about a great cosmic joke?
How about taking Ted Kennedy's Senate seat -- as reliably, as guaranteeably a Democratic seat as there is in the known universe, at a time when every seat in this particular corner of the universe matters, and there's simply no margin for error -- and handing it to someone who promises to be the crucial vote, at the absolutely crucial moment, against the central cause of Ted Kennedy's life? Not to mention the central battle of the new Democratic president's entire first year?
Well, at least Mitch McConnell is laughing.
If Michael Steele can pull himself away from bashing Harry Reid, he really should take a moment to dash off a thank-you note...to Harry Reid.
Without Harry Reid, Michael Steele would be looking at another week of whispers about his rocky reign as chairman of the Republican National Committee. Which is only fair, because without Michael Steele, Harry Reid would have been looking a full week of panicky chatter about the Senate majority leader's likely-to-be-shrinking Senate majority.
Got all that? OK then.
You've got to hand it to Steele: He's demonstrated remarkable survival skills over the past few days, deflecting incoming fire and leading the assault on somebody else. What makes it even more impressive, of course, is that the incoming fire was coming from his own side -- from "fellow" Republicans -- who were tired of Steele's feet constantly sharing space with his mouth. But by racing to the front of the Reid-bashing crowd, he's got those same Republicans (at least temporarily) covering his back, instead of throwing knives at it.

Spikes Builds A Secure Browser For The Enterprise
The vast majority of malware on corporate networks arrives through the browser. Branden Spikes, the CEO of Spikes, believes that by virtualizing the browser and having it run separate from the desktop, his company can prevent the vast majority of these attacks. The WebKit-based browser runs in a virtualized environment either on-premise or in the cloud and mostly resembles Google's Chrome (though with the URL bar on top of the tabs).
Spikes, who was previously the CIO of SpaceX and PayPal, told me that in his view, users are ready for this kind of tool. They are already familiar with the concept of remote applications. Right now, however, using browsers on remote desktops typically isn't a great experience, especially if you're using a highly interactive site.
As the Spikes team told me, the company puts a strong emphasis on ensuring that the browser feels just like a native app on the desktop. To do this, Spikes uses PNG for encoding text and just switches to H.264 for video. The team says this keeps the latency as low as possible and allows users to play YouTube videos or even browser-based games without any noticeable lag.
To use Spikes, users simply sign in with their accounts (after they've downloaded the software) and the browser will start on their desktop. All of their bookmarks and other personalizations, of course, persist between sessions. The team also added a few new features to the browser that aren't readily available in other solutions, including a new tab content menu and the ability to open multiple tabs at launch (something most browsers can do, too, but don't emphasize). Spikes tells me that the team will also happily customize the browser for new companies that want to switch to this service.
An OS X client is already in the works and after that, the team plans to launch a mobile app, as well. "You can't secure the network with just Windows machines," he told me.
For now, Spikes is squarely focused on the enterprise market, but in the long run, the company also plans to move into the consumer space.

Over the last few years, there's been a clear movement amongst black women to 'go natural'. Motivations for going natural are as diverse as black women themselves. Three years ago, I jumped on the bandwagon with my own motivations being decidedly personal and brought about when I found myself unable to explain why I really wore weaves and wigs.
Fast forward to the present day, and I barely ever have my own natural hair out. I convinced myself that looking after my 4c hair took too much time, effort and preparation, and it wasn't worth it.
I mean it's the same thing with makeup. It's time-consuming and takes a lot of effort, but that really doesn't stop me, because I love how I look in it. The truth is, if I felt like I looked amazing in my own hair, I would definitely wear it all the time.
In my opinion, black women relaxing their hair, wearing weaves, wigs etc can have deep roots – if explored. I realised deep down, we are subconsciously taught to disappreciate our own natural aesthetic.
Like most women, my serial use of weaves and wigs began as a simple desire for convenience and versatility—that quickly turned into a necessity.
So for the last few months, I've made an active effort to have my own natural hair out or wear my hair in more 'black' styles, such as braids and twists. During the periods that I do wear wigs, I'll try to go for ones with curl patterns closer to mine.
To me, embracing my natural aesthetic is about loving myself the way God made me, and choosing not to adhere to western beauty standards.
Does this mean you'll never catch me in wigs? Hell n'aw. But what it does mean is that I will choose to look 'more like me' more often, now that I have a new knowledge and understanding of why I do what I do. I'm in the process of mentally shifting my idea of beauty and for the first time ever, I have a willingness to build a relationship, tolerance, and love for my curls.

So many good points raised in such a pragmatic yet poetic way! Love yourself = love your hair!


It's hard not to feel inspired after a week at Sundance and I can't think of a better way to keep the momentum going then starting on a new film festival.
The Stanley Film Festival is the love child of Jenny Bloom (my Reel Social Club partner-in-crime) and the Grand Heritage Hotel Group. With the Stanley Hotel's iconic Hollywood roots and haunted history (hello, The Shining), it makes perfect sense for it to showcase emerging independent horror cinema. It's set for May 2-5 in picturesque Estes Park, Colorado…prepare to get creepy with us.
I officially got down to business last week at SFF HQ: Galvanize. Opened last October and just in time for the inaugural Denver Startup Week, its mission is slightly different (dare I say better?) than most office co-ops that have popped up around town over the past few years. Beyond offering desk space, Galvanize is focused on tech startups providing up to 70 of them access to investors, mentorship programs and classes. Founder Jim Deters' hope is to create a nucleus for the tech/entrepreneurial community while raising Denver's profile on a national level. With fellow office mates like Uber, Roximity and Forkly, Galvanize is well on its way.
The space is outfitted by Knoll, which offices out of it too, and also houses a gym, game room and bicycle corral. Perhaps the best part is Gather, a full service restaurant and bar inspired by ChoLon, which Deter also owns. It's open to the public, so come by and grab a bite from Chef Lon Symensma's designed menu or meet us for a cocktail during happy hour. And to keep tabs on the Stanley Film Festival, sign up for our e-newsletter and creep us on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

The little bell rings: Last call for Jiri Vesely
Born in 1993, Jiri Vesely is not a new name in the ATP circuit. Still, the big Czech guy is often ignored in the list of new future talent. Why?
We often forget Jiri Vesely when speaking about the young interesting players for the future of ATP tennis. Maybe wrongly, maybe rightly, yet the native of Pribram surprised everyone a few years ago thanks to his stunning performances in the junior circuit, crowned by a deserved Slam title achieved in Australia in 2011. Therefore, Vesely's name has not come under the spotlight in recent months, but for more than a couple of years it has regularly been in the entry list of the most important Challengers and ATP tournaments. Nevertheless, the mighty Czech player has just turned 23 a few days ago and therefore is ready to experience the best years of his career. If the future seems represented and entrusted to the talents of the next generation (Zverev, Fritz, Coric, Ymer), it should be underlined that Dominic Thiem has quickly reached the elite of men's tennis only this year, as a 23 years old like Jiri Vesely.
The difference between the two is noticeable: if Thiem mixes his accuracy of shots with elegance, character, game variety and especially rapid moving, Vesely largely relies on the power of its serve and forehand in the first place. Almost two meters high, the Czech takes advantage of its body to play quick points in an attempt to avoid long rallies and endless runs on the baseline. However, unlike many other equally tall and physically powerful players, Vesely has proved himself able to significantly improve his mobility and court coverage, allowing himself to challenge the game of many of the best players in the world.
The natural question arising is: how far Jiri Vesely can go? As a former number one in the world of while playing in the junior circuit, expectations are huge on him and Jiri has not been able to fulfill them so far. In his poor palmares as a professional player figure one ATP title, won in a not-so-prestigious location like Auckland at the beginning of 2015, and a final on clay in Bucharest, when he lost to Guillermo Garcia-Lopez. Not enough for the boy who used to lead juniores rankings five years ago. Yet Vesely, who is still not ready to represent Czech Republic's future after Berdych, has been able to show some flashes of talent this year, for the hope and joy of the fans who always believed in him.
With 41 games played so far this year and only 22 wins, numbers do not seem to give reason to the talent of the Czech player, but analyzing the matches he played we can find some great surprises. The first, back in April, is perhaps the most interesting one: we are in Monte Carlo and it's time to play the second round of the Monaco Masters 1000. Vesely, who was just two points away from a defeat vs Gabashvili in the previous round, is now on the Centre Court against the favourite of the tournament, Novak Djokovic. The epilogue of the match looks already written but the evidence is different as there is only one player on court who does not miss a shot with his powerful forehand. For once, we are not talking about the Serbian and Jiri Vesely becomes the only player along with Andy Murray and Sam Querrey to beat Djokovic this year. A miracle, some say.
Wimbledon is another key moment for Jiri. The second round of the British slam sees Dominic Thiem in front of Vesely: on the one hand stands the future, represented by the consistent Austrian workaholic, on the other hand there is an unexpected surprise impersoned by Jiri Vesely. They are both 22 years old but their styles of playing and destinies are completely different: a cloudy sky over Wimbledon's courts witnesses a different match from the expectations and Jiri Vesely tops his opponent without dropping a set. Another miracle, maybe. Jiri faces then Joao Sousa, easily winning against him too. Vesely's dream run ends on fourth round, when he faces his mentor and country-leader, Tomas Berdych. In spite of starting the match against the odds, Vesely challenges his experienced opponent and has also 5 match points before losing 6-3 in the fifth set. On the verge of a miracle, for this time.
Flashes of Vesely, flashes of lovely tennis. Of course, we are far from talking about the next number one in the world but certainly the current number 49 of the ATP rankings has all it takes to shine on the important stages of the circuit. The time has come and the latest surprising performances sound like a cheerful, merry, little bell which rings just for Jiri Vesely. To follow Dominic Thiem's footsteps will not be easy: the little bell starts ringing louder and louder and now we can all hear it too.
Is this the last call for Jiri Vesely?

Azerbaijani president receives Secretary General of Turkic Council
Politics 16 April 2019 11:14 (UTC+04:00)
Baku, Azerbaijan, April 16
President of the Republic of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev has received Secretary General of the Cooperation Council of Turkic-Speaking States Baghdad Amreyev, Trend reports referring to the Azerbaijani presidential press-service.
The president once again congratulated Amreyev as he was approved as Secretary General of the Cooperation Council of Turkic-Speaking States, and expressed confidence that he will contribute to the expansion of cooperation among the brotherly member-states of the organization.
President Aliyev recalled the milestone founding Summit of the Cooperation Council of Turkic-Speaking States held 10 years ago in Nakhchivan, emphasizing that it has further strengthened and grown into an important international organization over the past period.
Amreyev thanked for the congratulations and noted that the establishment of the Cooperation Council of Turkic-Speaking States 10 years ago on the Azerbaijani soil of Nakhchivan, where the great son of the Turkic world, national leader of the Azerbaijani people Heydar Aliyev was born, gave a particular importance to the organization.
He emphasized that Azerbaijan will host the next Summit on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of the establishment of the Cooperation Council of Turkic-Speaking States this autumn, expressing confidence that the Summit will also be excellently organized by the country.
Amreyev briefed the president on the development of cooperation in a number of areas within the organization, including in economic, trade, financial, and transport ones, as well as the establishment of relations with relevant international organizations.
President Aliyev wished Amreyev success in his future activities, and noted that Azerbaijan will excellently host the Summit on the 10th anniversary of the organization.

April 11, 2018 -- U.K. researchers have provided fresh evidence about the feasibility of transfer learning from pretrained convolutional neural networks (CNNs). They demonstrated the accuracy of the technology to predict fractures can be increased by removing surplus imaging data and reducing the opportunity for overfitting.
At ECR 2018 in Vienna, they described a technique in which fracture detection can be semiautomated via template matching. The process was successful in the majority of cases. More sophisticated methods may well improve the accuracy of this process, for example, by using CNNs for anatomical localization.
"The process (of automated fracture detection) could be applied to a large number of medical imaging tasks and has the potential to improve workflow and reduce diagnostic delay," noted lead presenter Dr. Mark Thurston, a radiology registrar of the Peninsula training scheme in Plymouth, and colleagues.
Lateral radiographs demonstrate a fracture (left) and no fracture (right). Notice how much of the image is surplus to the diagnosis. All images courtesy of Dr. Dan Kim, Royal Devon & Exeter Hospital, U.K.
CNNs are a machine-learning tool well suited to the analysis of visual imaging, and were inspired by the architecture of the human brain, particularly the visual cortex, they explained.
Using layers of increasing complexity to combine simple image features can lead to identification of specific patterns with high accuracy. These image features are learnt by the network by training it with the use of many examples of images where the desired outcome is already known -- an instance of supervised machine learning, said Thurston, acknowledging the contribution of his fellow radiology registrar Dr. Dan Kim, who led the project.
"It is possible to adapt CNNs that have already been trained to recognize everyday objects such as buildings or cars. Typically these have been trained on huge datasets resulting in highly refined feature detectors in early layers of the network," they continued. "These feature detectors can be used as the building blocks to detect a new set of images. This is called transfer learning."
Building an image-analysis neural network from scratch is extremely computationally intensive, whereas using transfer learning allows new problems to be tackled substantially faster.
The authors carried out an extension to a previous study in which radiographs were preprocessed using a semiautomated cropping process. The aim was to improve the accuracy of the network by removing unnecessary parts of the image. These radiographs were then used to retrain the Inception v3 network using the transfer-learning process.
Template matching. The original image (A) is preprocessed using a smoothing algorithm (B), followed by binary thresholding and matching of the template (D) to the most similar region of the preprocessed image (C, white box). The final outcome is shown in (E).
They ascertained the sensitivity and specificity of this model and assessed whether the semiautomated cropping process improves diagnostic accuracy in the detection of fractures on adult wrist radiographs.
A total of 11,112 lateral wrist radiographs produced at the Royal Devon and Exeter Hospital in Exeter between 1 January 2015 and 1 January 2016 were used to retrain the Inception v3 network after an eightfold amplification of the original images. To reduce overfitting, an automated technique was used to identify the anatomical region of interest and crop the non-necessary image portions -- a process termed region of interest focusing. Given the large sample size, automation of the process was necessary for feasibility, according to Thurston and colleagues.
The region of interest was defined using the Python OpenCV matchTemplate function.
"The method takes a template image and slides it across every position in the subject image (the wrist radiograph), returning the position in which the closest match was calculated," they said. "In this study, the region of interest was the distal radius. The template was, therefore, an anatomical representation of the distal radius."
The template was produced by using a representative lateral wrist radiograph and applying a smoothing algorithm, followed by a binary threshold to segment the bone. A scaled template matching approach was adopted to account for different wrist sizes.
A similar preprocessing and an additional histogram-based normalization method was applied to all of the wrist radiographs, they added. The template matching was then used to identify the coordination for automated cropping of the original image, and this resulted in an image that focused solely on the anatomical region of interest.
The Inception v3 network was then retrained using the region-of-interest focused radiographs. The model output was designed to produce a continuous value of between 0 and 1, with higher values indicating a fracture. A set of 50 "fracture" and 50 "no fracture" radiographs were used in final testing of the model.
Automated region-of-interest focusing was able to crop the image appropriately in 92.4% of cases, reported Thurston, who has a special interest in musculoskeletal radiology, open learning initiatives, and open-source software. The remainder of the cases were cropped manually.
The accuracy of the model was improved when the region-of-interest focusing was applied reaching an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.978, compared with an AUC of 0.954 without region of interest focusing.
The output of the network was a continuous score from 0 to 1. By setting the cutoff for fracture diagnosis at > 0.4, the team achieved a sensitivity and specificity of 96% and 94% respectively.

Second leather top hat is now created! This time in black, with a nice high-gloss finish. I shaped it a little more toward what I see as a ring-master style top hat. I'm sure I could find more technical terminology if I was interested in looking.
The real finishing touch on this, though, is the spider-web print hat band, which is nice and subtle and further accented by the metal clockwork spider pin on the side.
Side view on the spider side.
Other side, again with the rivets.
This will be listed on etsy soon, I just am not in love with the photos enough for such a major item. I may cheat and take some nice photos at work.
So, the original plague doctor mask that I did is off this way. It eventually sold, which was nifty, and led to me creating the top hat. The top hat continue to be worn and be awesome and I even have plans for a second waiting in the wings for free time.
The second go at the plague doctor mask led to me creating a Half Plague Doctor Mask. This was done as a lighter weight version of it. Amusingly enough, the same style of bird mask / plague doc mask shows up in Resident Evil 5. I won't go into the details on the character who wears, so as not to spoil anything, but it is interesting to see how often this particular style of mask shows up.
Now, I am back at creating another full on mask, with a few of the lessons learned from the previous two attempts as a custom piece. It is coming together much more smoothly. Pictures to follow soon!
Finished and shipped out this set of steampunk bracers for there wrists. They are done out of a nice brown leather. It has a thumb hole, rests just below the knuckles and goes down the arm. There is a small dart in the leather to give them more shape. Lots of antiqued eyelets. The lacing is black and gold, actually done with crocheted cord. On the bottom side are slots with metal brace bits to keep the wrist sitting properly.
My latest obsession that kept me from finishing other projects was the leather top hat. Excitingly enough, another project actually for me. I do manage to go for those sorts of projects every now and again.
I did a pattern out of poster board, based off of measurements and such. largely based off of me figuring it out as I want along, to be honest. Once that was reasonably what I was after, I pulled the mockup back apart and laid it out on my leather. I started with just plain old tooling leather.
With pieces cut out, I used wool daubers to swipe on the dye, which let me get a more mottled effect. Which is totally awesome. Once that had dried, I did a quick wet seal on it. Basically running it under the faucet to rinse out any excess dye, then dried everything again between paper towels.
That finished out, I played with options, and decided to put holes along the inside of the brim and the bottom edge of the main body first. Then I riveted the main body piece. I went with the double row of rivets for purely aesthetic reasons. Stitching or even a single row of rivets would have worked just as well.
To stitch the brim in place, I wet down the inside edge of it and then flared it up a little before stitching to get it to sit more how I wanted. From there, I could wet the brim itself and play with shaping until I found the brim shape I was after. Which I actually found rather quickly after first toying.
The top was originally going to have an amount of flare, but once I hit this point, I actually changed my mind and cut back the top piece and re-dyed the edges. I still had to stretch the top just a little to make things sit how I wanted, but the effect on the shaping is very subtle.
I actually stitched the top twice. Once while wet for stretching, then pulled it out and re-stitched to get it tight and perfect.
From there, I used a block out sealing layer. This didn't change the dye much, which is what I was after.
The hat band piece I also did myself. It currently isn't attached quite how I intend to really have it, but I have not finished the hat pin I want to do. By which I mean, I haven't quite figured out what exactly I want for it. For the time being, I am just using a pin to hold the hat band in place. I intend to keep it removable, so that I can swap in alternate hat bands easily if I ever want to change things up a little. Probably I will add some little hook catches for that purpose.
The band itself is some awesome fabric I found at a shop in Hawaii. (Yes, I went to a fabric store while on vacation on a tropical island.) I cut the strip and wrapped it around a semi-heavy bit of craft fuse stuff. I ironed it in place, then stitched the back edge by hand. I also folded over the one end and stitched that to give it a little nicer of an end piece.
This is an idea that has been rattling around in my brain for a good two years now, if I'm not mistaken. I finally actually had a chance to visit a wood-working shop and pick out the bits and pieces necessary and with my additional free time, I've even started work on it.
I picked out a piece of wood that I liked. I went more for the actual bit that felt right and looked fun rather then worrying much about species of tree. From there, I sat and whittled down the two end pieces so that I could get the handle and foot on.
Multi-piece foot bit. The plastic bit is removable and shows a spike for more rugged hiking and what-have you.
I went with the not quite as practical grip as well, since this is more a style thing.
I used a little epoxy on both bits just to make sure they sat well. Two part putty epoxy, to be more specific. The top piece also has a small screw holding it in. The spike on the bottom I actually drilled a hole, and then actually bolted into it. So that bit seems like it should hold quite well.
From here, I start adding symbols to it and play with how much bark is coming off and all. More photos to come!


This is Schubert's second setting of this Schiller poem. The first dates from 1815 and is completely different in mood from this version. In 1815, the composer has taken the verbs 'rennen' and 'jagen' as his primary inspirations and the result is a chirrupy and tuneful ditty which reflects the youthful optimism of a teenager with everything to hope for in life.
Although it is not certain that this second setting dates from 1819 it is very likely that Schubert returned to the poem at this time and was able to give it a much deeper appraisal as the result not only of his greater experience of life but also of a deeper understanding of the philosophical issues which interested his contemporaries. It does, however, have something in common with another 1815 song, the Schober Genugsamkeit which is also in a sturdy 6/8 and displays a similar stoical determination.
The introduction shows a preoccupation with subtly moving inner parts, much as we have found in Himmelsfunken. The chromaticism of the opening four bars is a metaphor for what might be called life's rather unpleasant habit of moving the goal-posts without notice. Circumstances in life change as quickly as a chord in the hand which (just when you think you have recognized it) metamorphoses under the fingers into something else. It is extremely tricky to build solid edifices on shifting sand, and the pilgrim's aim is to reach a place where an optimistic view of life can flourish on a secure foundation. What emerges in this Hoffnung is that it is not easy to continue to hope through thick and thin, and against the odds – it takes resolution, quiet determination and courage, not merely a breezy esprit. Note for example, in a song which is in the key of B flat major, the setting of 'künftigen Tagen' ('days to come') is in B flat minor to underline that, when speaking of the future, 'what's to come is still unsure' – as Shakespeare puts it.
John Reed is correct to point out that Capell's characterization of the song as 'racy – a wilder kind of drinking song' is one of that writer's rare misjudgements. Of course it might seem more palatable at a rollicking tempo, but this is to misunderstand its essential thoughtfulness and introspection – a side of the German character that Capell perhaps found stodgy and self-indulgent. The song in its pastoral manner is a forerunner of the Schlegel setting Abendlied für die Entfernte (also in 6/8) which reflects on the same issues ('the heart remains constant, hoping faithfully unto the grave'). Both songs share an earnest and touching desire not only for better circumstances in life but also for self improvement (note the elongated setting of 'Verbesserung' at the end of the first verse where the breadth of the note values seems to imply the opening up of new vistas of perception as much as windows of opportunity). All this is in line with the shared hopes and aspirations of the Bildung circle which was particularly active in 1819 as Johann Senn had not yet been exiled to the Tyrol. It is significant that the manly and quietly heroic qualities advocated here do not explicitly mention God or religion. Nevertheless it seems self-evident that this song was composed by the same hand which wrote the Silbert and Novalis settings, rich in metaphysical imagery, at about the same time.
of better days to come.
after a happy, golden goal.
but man forever hopes for better things.
Hope leads man into life.
nor is it buried with the old man.
yet on that grave he plants his hope.
born in the mind of a fool.
we are born for better things.
does not deceive the hopeful soul.

Today, brand activations, influencer marketing, and hollow collaborations dominate the marketplace. Fashion houses frantically seek out new means of garnering the attention of the consumer. However, in an industry dominated by commercialism, Rick Owens demonstrates an unyielding commitment to his brutalist values.
Owens does not represent a brand but a far-reaching lifestyle that speaks to his fanbase's unwavering loyalty. Between unstructured sartorial garbs, perturbing sculptural furniture, and some of the most bewildering footwear on the market—it is no wonder why "The Lord of Darkness" is so highly revered.
Born Richard Saturnino Owens, the young designer dropped out of the Otis College of Art and Design to pursue pattern-making and draping courses at Los Angeles Trade-Technical College. During his studies, Owens began cutting patterns that illegally knocked-off designer clothing. This tongue-in-cheek attitude would become a fixture of Owens' brand ethos. In 1994, Owens unveiled his inaugural clothing label selling exclusively to Charles Gallay, the L.A's trailblazing avant-garde boutique operator.
Several years into his design career, Owens met Michelle Lamy through his then-boyfriend, Rick Castro. He worked as a pattern-maker for Lamy starting in 1990, only working for a couple of years before the two began an affair. Together, the tumultuous duo lived a "rock n' roll" lifestyle characterized by the prolific use of drugs and alcohol.
Throughout the mid-90s, Owens produced one-off pieces from recycled leather and salvaged materials from army surplus stores. In 2001, French Vogue published a photo of Kate Moss wearing a signature leather jacket from his Fall/Winter 2001 collection, and one year later, Anna Wintour and Vogue sponsored Owens' first runway show in Spring/Summer 2002.
The Spring/Summer 2003 collection featured several predecessors to Owen's most ubiquitous designs, such as sharp shouldered blazers and early versions of the Pod Short. Owens' cult appeal exploded over the next few years thanks to his unorthodox footwear. The Dustulator Dunk ignited an insatiable desire for Owens' unnerving designs and paved the way for the legendary Geobasket to rupture the sneaker market.
Above all, Owens is celebrated for his ability to blend creative freedom and commercial success seamlessly. DRKSHDW, Owens' diffusion line, began in 2005 to expand the accessibility of his designs. Built around denim and wardrobe staples like hoodies, sweatpants, and bomber jackets, DRKSHDW allows newcomers to become more familiar with the Owens brand without feeling overwhelmed by the brand's mainline tailoring. The diffusion line is perhaps best known for the Ramone model, a converse-like sneaker infamous for introducing the Rick Owens brand to a younger audience.
In 2010, Owens extended his brand into a lifestyle—producing furniture inspired by Eileen Gray and California's skateparks' concrete landscape. His "Prehistoric" collection offered Owens' signature Brutalist oeuvre. The collection consisted of seven pieces using unorthodox materials like ox bone, alabaster, and petrified wood. Owens' most notable designs, however, featured sculptural furniture modeled after the designer himself.
Owens' first bout with mainstream success occurred in 2013 following his inaugural collaboration with Adidas. Owens designed seasonal products for the German stalwart—creating new silhouettes and re-imaging staple designs. Many of the shoes also featured themes that intersected with his mainline collections. The partnership ended in 2017 with Owens joining heritage brand Hood Rubber to re-design its signature Grafton shoe. He has since collaborated with both Veja and Birkenstock.
Unlike many contemporary avant-garde designers, Owens eschews stoicism in favor of an inscrutable sense of humor. Authenticity is dwindling, yet Owens' brutally honest deportment is an odd source of comfort. Amid the volatility and chaos of high-fashion, Rick Owens remains a force to be reckoned with.

Prepared for post crisis? - Metasysteme : Coaching sistemic de intreprindere in tranzitie si innovare. Coaching pentru echipa de conducere, lideri si manageri. Formare si supervizare de coach.
Toate newsletter >> Prepared for post crisis?
I am French and would like to share my perception of recent events in my country. The news this fall have kept France in the headlines with very familiar scenes of strikes, sometimes looking more like a revolt if not a revolution. The official story is that this upheaval was about retirement reforms. I am 62, and I do not believe a word of it. Retirement is not the deep issue at stake.
Much like elsewhere, the French population is very slowly coming out of the global financial, economic and social crisis. It is facing the present situation and its future, and is considering options. But it is governed by people who seem to be simple-minded accountants Indeed, the French government wants to cut social, ecological, and longer-term development-oriented investments and propose the same outlook on the future as what has been done in the last fifty years.
The recent strikes are not about retirement, nor are they a revolt led by a minority of opportunist students looking for excitement. It is more about a whole country expressing anger at hearing the same uninspired officials propose the same type of numerical logic and the same financial answers that have created the crisis in the first place. For the French, coming out of the recent crisis does not automatically mean going back to the same old "business as usual". For the French, and maybe for others elsewhere, post crisis should mean that now, we have to prepare for a different future.
The strikes may not be a model of civilized expression to foster political change, but it is a way to get the message across. The question is: if economic outlooks are going to become a little better in the years to come, what quality do we want to insure for our future? I think the question is good, and it needs to be considered both individually, and as a society. I am not ready for retirement right now. There are important things to do to prepare for the future of this planet, and accountants are not inspiring leaders. I want to participate in the necessary change now. This cannot be put aside for later nor for our children.
This is what the coaching profession, my profession, is about.
Since September, our personal and professional lives are pulsating to a very different, more active rhythm. The concept was 50-50 between Paris and Bucharest. The reality is that we have more client needs in Bucharest than expected, and the little time that I have left for Paris is also for Madrid, Hamburg, Brussels, etc. So we are less in Paris than planned. Are we going to do something about that? Open question for a time, but we are searching for a bigger flat in Paris. These adjustments in our lifestyle are minor and progressive. They illustrate that we haven't yet stabilized since last year's upheavals and are experimenting to feel what fits us best and who we are becoming. Maybe also, that is normality. But we are preparing for 2011 and beyond.
My investment in developing the coaching profession and accompanying my clients in Europe is in keeping with what I feel I do best and with what I believe is needed. As you will see below, a good part of this investment concerns the Romanian economic environment.
The next "Fundamentals of Coaching" cycle that will start January 25 & 26 is already half full. I am having great pleasure teaching systemic coaching and how to work with coach-client resonance. This type of coaching is very powerful and a world exclusivity. The course is meeting great success here and in France, hopefully soon in Spain, and my teaching methods are improving every time. More and more managers are coming to this training to fine-tune their skills, so I am more than satisfied with the future outlooks of this program.
There is room for a few participants in the Bucharest "Supervision cycle", as several veteran trainees have moved on, feeling ready to hit the marketplace. To build a solid and sustainable professional base, the commitment to this cycle is for one year (one day per month), the work is collective and demanding, and the results are in keeping with each individual's engagement. There are no secrets: beyond learning the basics, only supervision permits deep personal development of practical coaching skills. The rest is theory (The word theory has the same root as theatre. It refers to the same type of fiction, quite distant from reality).
On February 21 & 22, the "Individual and Team Diagnosis" workshop will deliver some of the basics of how to understand individual and team "client" needs with a number of simple and very operational models. There is a lot of theory there, and a few immediately operational tools for coaches. Excellent for those coaches who need to understand their own and their client strengths and challenges. Same pertinence for managers and entrepreneurs.
As all these programs are on https://www.metasysteme-coaching.ro/romana/agenda-si-preturi-2010/ . They get filled by word of mouth, thanks to their excellent reputation. Do not hesitate to tell your friends about it. They will thank you, and so will I, for your continuous support.
And besides that: I am focusing on two books to be published in Romania. One is translated, at last, and the other one is in the process. I am in discussion with one or two publishers. I am also preparing shorter online conferences (already have a few long ones, see : https://www.metasysteme-coaching.ro/romana/actualit%C4%83%C5%A3i/alain-cardon-conference-on-video.html). I am preparing another longer term online questionnaire project, but that will take much longer to finalize, so it will keep me busy, and out of trouble.
Voila for recent news. I wish you an excellent year end, and until my next newsletter early 2011, don't forget to ready yourselves for your future, making the best out of the coming post-crisis years.

Week 9 NFL Power Rankings
Filed Under:Atlanta Falcons, Gordon Robinson, nfl, Power Rankings
ORCHARD PARK, NY - OCTOBER 30: Tom Brady #12 of the New England Patriots before receiving the snap from David Andrews #60 during NFL game action against the Buffalo Bills at New Era Field on October 30, 2016 in Orchard Park, New York. (Photo by Tom Szczerbowski/Getty Images)
The NFL season is heating up as the best reality show on television plays itself out in front of our eyes. Dak Prescott is still in at QB in Dallas, the Chiefs place Jamal Charles on the IR and Jay Cutler has returned for the Chicago Bears. It's about this time that the playoff race starts to take shape and the real begins to separate from the fake contenders.
1. New England Patriots (7-1)
The Patriots have won four straight since the "Return of the Great Tom Brady." This past weekend he threw for 315 yards and four touchdowns against the Buffalo Bills. For their exceptional play, New England gets to take the week off.
Dak Prescott struggled early this week but he persevered to gain a 29-23 win in overtime over Philadelphia. Dez Bryant returned to the Cowboys the week to grab four catches, 113 yards and a touchdown. Next, Dallas travels to Cleveland to take on the 0-8 Browns.
3. Denver Broncos (6-2)
The Denver defense looked like it was back in Super Bowl form this past week against San Diego. Chargers' QB Philip Rivers was hit 17 times, sacked four times and threw three interceptions. The Broncos will travel to Oakland this week to take on the Raiders.
4. Atlanta Falcons (5-3)
Atlanta was in another close battle this week, but this time they were on the winning end. Instead of a late game interception, Matt Ryan threw a game-winning touchdown to Mohammed Sanu. Ryan passed for 288 yards and three touchdowns in the 33-32 win, up next is a Thursday night game in Tampa Bay.
5. Kansas City Chiefs (5-2)
Kansas City has won three games in a row. Alex Smith was in and out of the game after some blows to the head and running back Spencer Ware missed the second half with concussions. After defeating the Colts 30-14, their next opponent is the Jacksonville Jaguars.
6. Oakland Raiders (6-2)
The Raiders have invaded Florida! After defeating Jacksonville a couple of weeks ago and this past week they beat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 30-24 in overtime. David Carr passed for a record 513 yards and four TDs. Oakland's offensive line will try and keep Carr standing up straight as they welcome the Denver Broncos.
7. Seattle Seahawks (4-2-1)
Seattle took a 20-25 loss in New Orleans after a Russell Wilson attempted game-winning pass landed Jermaine Kearse out of bounds. This is another let down after a 6-6 tie with Arizona last week. The Seahawks will depend on the Buffalo Bills traveling across the country to get a win.
8. Minnesota Vikings (5-2)
Minnesota dropped a game to Chicago on Monday as QB Sam Bradford was sacked five times. The Vikings have suffered back to back losses and will need a win at home versus the Lions to avoid three in a row.
9. Philadelphia Eagles (4-3)
Carson Wentz played well but not well enough to win. The Eagles lost to the Cowboys 23-29 in OT. Philly has lost three of the four games and will have to try to get a win in New York as they take on the Giants.
Aaron Rogers was single-handedly keeping his team in the game against the Falcons but he came up short. A few of Rogers' wide receivers got their first NFL touchdown this week. They will need to catch a few more if they are going to outscore the Indianapolis Colts.
In the next few weeks let's follow a few of the storylines that should take shape, for example, will Denver or Oakland take over the AFC West and who will emerge as the cream of the crop in the NFC?

Home / Entertainment / Woman dumps man, keeps ring
Woman dumps man, keeps ring
A woman who found out that the man who proposed to her was married can keep the $40,000 engagement ring he gave her.
By Associated Press | None, New York
PUBLISHED ON JUL 08, 2006 06:40 PM IST
A woman who found out that the man who proposed to her was married can keep the $40,000 engagement ring he gave her, even though she was the one who broke off the relationship, a judge has ruled.
Judge Rolando T. Acosta said that because Brian Callahan was still married when he gave Dana Clyburn Parker a 3.41-carat diamond engagement ring, the agreement to marry was void.
Acosta noted that Callahan was in the process of getting a divorce in Massachusetts when he proposed. In June 2002, Callahan, of Manhattan, received a judgment of divorce nisi, meaning the divorce from his wife had been approved but would not be official and absolute for another 90 days.
That July, Callahan, 36, and Parker, of Charleston, S.C., got engaged in South Carolina and she moved to New York to live with him, the judge wrote. They had met on the Internet in September 2001.
Parker, a mortgage broker, dumped Callahan after finding evidence on his computer that he had been trolling for women on the Internet and after learning he was married, her lawyer, Kevin Conway, said.
Callahan, who works in the financial services industry, sued in July 2003 to get back the ring — or alternatively $40,000 — and his personal property. While the judge allowed Parker to keep the ring, he ordered her to return Callahan's personal property.
Callahan's lawyer said his client had not decided whether to appeal.

Q: Send Json over websocket with qt5 I've tried this
QJsonObject pC;
pC.insert("pC","false" "Uab" "CTOMAN" "1" "1" );
a=conexion.sendTextMessage(pC.value("pC").toString());

And I should get a response from the server, the problem is most likely in the serialization of the JSON but I have no idea on how to properly do it.
The JSON as declared in javascript and is proven to work is like this
var pC = ["false", "Uab", "CTOMAN", 1, 1]

A: If the JSON you want to get is
{
    "pC": [
        "false",
        "Uab",
        "CTOMAN",
        1,
        1
    ]
}

You can use QJsonArray and then insert it into QJsonObject:
QJsonObject json;
json["pC"] = QJsonArray() << "false" << "Uab" << "CTOMAN" << 1 << 1;
// Same as  json.insert("pC", QJsonArray() << "false" << "Uab" << "CTOMAN" << 1 << 1);

You have to be careful with quotes, if you want false as string, then place it between quotes, if you want it as boolean type, then do not enclose it in quotes. Same holds for numbers, if you want numbers as integer then do not enclose it in quotes.
QJsonObject json;
json["booleanAndInt"]    = QJsonArray() <<  false  <<  1;
json["booleanAndString"] = QJsonArray() <<  false  << "1";
json["stringAndInt"]     = QJsonArray() << "false" <<  1;
json["stringAndString"]  = QJsonArray() << "false" << "1";

will create the following JSON:
{
    "booleanAndInt": [
        false,
        1
    ],
    "booleanAndString": [
        false,
        "1"
    ],
    "stringAndInt": [
        "false",
        1
    ],
    "stringAndString": [
        "false",
        "1"
    ]
}

Manifestation Miracle for Women PLUS Amazing Self Membership has recently been released by mark ling. As a new product on the market, it has drawn a lot of attention from customers excited about its claims. Like the majority of products, it has its positive aspects and flaws. What are they and should you buy it? Well, first let's discuss what it does.
A short word about the characteristics of the links in this article, on the grounds that I really do get a large amount of queries about it. The links with this icon are "affiliate links". Some people don't like them however it makes no difference regarding cost to you or even quality. If you buy right after clicking an affiliate hyperlink you will end up entitled to the bonus offer. They make no difference to the neutrality of the evaluations as we include them for every product.
Your first step in the shopping process is usually to click through to the retailer's internet site: manifestationmiracle.com. Yes, you will need to look at the sales pitch, yet that may normally end up being rather interesting. Find the "Purchase It" or "Add to Cart" link and you will be taken to the payment page, managed through the transaction processor Clickbank. After paying you are going to get an e mail with exact directions concerning how to retrieve your purchase. If you do not intend to make use of an affiliate link (and lose out on your bonus offer!) to go through to the vendor's site just click here.
I've hunted high and low and produced a list of all the other products this supplier is selling, and also any specials they have on right now. Let's have a look… So, it seems Manifestation Miracle for Women PLUS Amazing Self Membership has no special product(s) on sale.
Welcome to the area of the analysis in which we assess the statistics. The first question many people normally have is – where do the statistics come from?
Well, I have written out a clarification of that here: stats explained. Using these stats, I have generated a couple of rankings to enable you to choose whether or not it is really a product you need to purchase. I have termed them the customer approval (self explanatory) and the sales rank (how well the program is selling).
Now, we examine the sales rank. Sales Rank Rating is actually a phrase I've coined to help us rate the amount of interest there is in a program. The higher the 'sales rank', the more customers are scrambling over themselves in a hurry to buy the product. The larger the rush – the higher the level of quality of the program, or so the theory goes. Manifestation Miracle for Women PLUS Amazing Self Membership ranks 99.76 which is eye-catching – certainly a top frenzy score and one that means the product is selling well.
All right, what else can I tell you? Well, why don't we take a look at the site that this product is sold from (manifestationmiracle.com)? There are a few stats available that will give usa better idea about how reliable the product is. Firstly, we know the website has 19 pages – the theory is that the more pages it has, the older and more trustworthy it is. So, in this case, 19 is definitely not that plenty and could imply that this website is new. But, naturally, you couldn't just judge a website by the number of pages it has. They could all be useless! Instead, let's learn something from Google's book and take a look at the amount of other websites that are backlinking in to this one. Lots of links from quality websites signifies that this one is sure to be quality too. So manifestationmiracle.com has 2 backlinks with an authority score of 21.49/100, which means it's got some links coming in, but it's still below average (tread carefully).
So, we have reached the last part of the review and it is time for me to add up all the disadvantages and benefits and deliver the final verdict. This "editor's" rating takes into account the satisfaction rating, the frenzy rating, and I intend to revise it depending on the thoughts and opinions of people here. It also takes into account the faith I place in the product's web site and publisher. Therefore, my closing ranking is 72.20%. An average of the 3 totals a final score of 72.20%.
It's an better than average score, and you ought to for that reason consider adding this program to your short list.


A North Lincolnshire artist is set to bring his favourite character back for his latest exhibition, which begins in Scunthorpe tomorrow.
The Reprise display by Lee Coleman, who combines his art with his job as a full-time paramedic, will go on show at the 20-21 Visual Arts Centre in Church Square.
It will include the triumphant return of his well-known Mr Faceless character, which also featured in his first solo exhibition at the gallery in 2008.
Lee will showcase a brand new set of drawings in the exhibition, which will run until April 14.
He created the enigmatic faceless character as a way of capturing emotional or challenging scenarios without revealing facial expressions, using body language and location alone.
But despite the popularity of Mr Faceless, in recent years Lee has concentrated on new work, often depicting his passion for scooters, music and Mod fashion.
Councillor Carl Sherwood, cabinet member for community wellbeing at North Lincolnshire Council, which runs the gallery, said: "We are delighted to welcome the return of well-known Scunthorpe artist Lee Coleman.
"His first ever solo exhibition at 20-21 was a huge success and is where his Mr Faceless character became so recognisable.
"Lee's latest exhibition promises to be stylish and distinctive, and will grab people's attention.
"If you didn't get the opportunity to see his last exhibition, take the opportunity to go this time and you'll see for yourself how great Lee's work is."
Lee was born and raised in Scunthorpe and during his teenage years, he appeared in various youth theatre productions.
When a fellow cast member moved to Liverpool, he drew a picture as a parting gift and since then, he has gone from strength to strength, drawing crowds to his exhibitions and events.
He makes time to painstakingly craft his drawings despite his demanding day job, often creating his emotionally charged art as a way of winding down from the stresses of life as a paramedic.
The exhibition will be based in the 20-21 Visual Arts Centre's Nave gallery and will be open from 10am to 4pm, Tuesday to Saturday. Admission is free.

Stress, stress, stress – such an overworked word in my lifetime. I've been revisiting Thomas Leonard's 28 Principles of Attraction and the more I read around the topic of stress, the more I realise it affects us all much more than the little overworked word can do justice to any longer. It's almost as if we take stress for granted and yet all around me I see people becoming ill with it. We say "it's just stress" but that's to underestimate its destructive power.
Here's a list of Thomas Leonard's suggestions for some of the causes of stress; I'll leave you to decide where you are most exposed.
If your job, business, or profession is harming you and you can't seem to make it completely stress-free, either quit, sell it, or change profession.
Make a list of ten promises you have made to others that are causing you stress, even if it's stress that you can handle. Revoke all ten of these promises and work out alternatives with those to whom you have committed.
Identify the three sources (people, roles, expectations of others) of your current stress. Completely eliminate these three items.
Have your errands run by someone else.
Arrange to have all bills, paper, and administrative tasks handled electronically or by an assistant who handles everything automatically.
Completely resolve any legal, tax, or financial clouds or problems.
Which of these hook you or are you particularly susceptible to? Let's try and crack them together and enjoy the rewards of a stress-free life.


Following an alternate-day fasting diet seems like it might be a good way to lose weight, but it's difficult to stick to such an eating pattern because the cravings on fasting days can be uncomfortable, and research found that higher LDL cholesterol is a concern.
Women who experience severe mood changes in the weeks leading to their menstrual periods may have premenstrual dysphoria disorder. Because this condition is not yet well understood, getting a correct diagnosis can be challenging.
Grilling meat creates potentially harmful chemicals; make outdoor grilling both more enjoyable and safer by following these tips for preparation and cooking of food.
The average American consumes three times the recommended daily intake of sodium, largely because of salt added to processed and prepared foods. It's possible to reduce daily sodium intake, but it does require effort and vigilance.
A large, long-term study confirms that running decreases a person's overall risk of death, and while the benefits from other forms of physical activity are not as significant, any activity is still better than none.
Giving fruit juice to babies under a year old can contribute to obesity and cavities. Eating the fruit rather than just drinking the juice is better for overall health. The American Academy of Pediatrics has revised its recommendation for giving juice to babies, and now says parents should wait until a child reaches a year.
Sticking to a medication regimen is challenging, and one of the biggest hurdles is staying motivated. Linking proper use of a drug to one's broader life goals can help make it easier to take regularly.
For men who have had prostate gland removal surgery, results from a new study show that a combination of radiation treatment and androgen deprivation therapy is more effective for treating PSA recurrence than radiation alone.
Medication costs vary widely depending on the type of drug, insurance coverage, and other factors. There are several ways to save money on medications, including choosing a generic version or comparing prices from several stores.
