Mascarade is a hidden identity game designed by Bruno Faidutti for 3-13 players. The game draws some inspiration from Citadels (by the same designer), and most notably from the bluffing sensation, Coup.
I write this review after enjoying several games with two players, as well as trying it out with three and eleven players.
The rules are extremely minimal and simple to explain. Each player randomly receives a identity card and starts with 6 coins. The aim of the game is to either obtain 13 coins, or to be the richest player at the time when someone loses their last coin. Each identity card has a special thematic power that somehow manipulates the number of coins, card ownership or reveals secret information to a limited audience.
3) To activate a special power by claiming to have the corresponding identity card.
How do I call a bluff?
Although the absence of a traditional way to challenge a claim may seem odd at first, this design choice helps induce silliness and laughter. For example, it may be a perfectly viable strategic option for an openly revealed King to claim that he is now a Queen (cue for giggles). In spite of the obvious lie, this move can serve as a relatively cheap way to get several identity cards revealed or to prevent someone else's play from going unchecked.
Is there a trivial winning strategy?
To prevent the overuse of 'checking cards by claiming', one of the identity cards, The Judge, has been designed to collect all amassed penalties in the courthouse. This creates an interesting strategic balance between caution and recklessness. This feeling of a balancing act extends to all the identity cards: every identity has a counter-identity. The game comes across as a complex rendition rock-paper-scissors, albeit with players partially blindfolded and spinning themselves dizzy every few minutes. There are a million and one incentives to keep changing cards and tactics.
Each turn tends to change the game state in some amusing or meaningful way, which is then duly noted and whispered around the table. Players tend to talk nonsense to confuse others, however the players with the strongest cards or the biggest purse size get targeted mercilessly. One must try to prevent other players from winning, while waiting for a chance to strike gold quietly and inconspicuously, without drawing too much attention. Managing one's own game while simultaneously managing others' is the key.
Time investment and player numbers.
Game duration and the atmosphere can vary wildly depending on the number of players.
Two player games (an official variant with three cards each, one of which is locked/protected) tend to be fast and furious and surprisingly fun 5-15 minute sparring matches. The same is true for three player games, perhaps increasing playing time to 20 minutes. I also heard positive opinions about four player games, which use an open pool of free-to-pick face-up identity cards in the middle of the table.
A gigantic game with ten or more players feels almost like a different board game entirely -- less about absolute memory, and more about prioritizing the most important things to remember and to track. In a large game, there is a rather long wait before getting another turn, so choices are all the more difficult. Consequently, spending a turn to look at one's own identity card seems to be distinctly weaker play than the other two options of play, since by the time the next turn arrives, the card's location might again be a total mystery. Depending on the shape and size of the table and on the noise level of the gaming environment, it may be hard to keep track of what happens on the far side of the table. It could take more than half an hour to finish a game, and some of the more impatient players tended to throw around comments such as 'Phew, at least it didn't take too much longer'. Eleven players seemed a bit excessive.
Low on coins = Death?
The game has some good catch-up mechanics: for example, The Witch identity lets a player exchange his entire fortune with another player, whereas The Widow offers a shortcut path to 10 coins. One always feels like there are ways to influence the game state, despite an atmosphere of anarchy. Also, it never feels like the game is lost mid-game for anyone. There is a certain element of co-operative play and negotiation to prevent leaders from running away with victory.
Pretending to swap cards, but not actually doing so, is a very intriguing bluffing tactic, sometimes deliciously cunning. If A suspects that B will attempt to steal his card by swapping, A can pre-emptively 'swap' the two cards himself, unsettling the opponent psychologically. Should B make the planned swap in any case, possibly wasting a turn just to restore the original situation? Or should B waste a turn to simply look at his card, knowing that the same situation might repeat again on the following round?
In a recent eleven player game, another player 'swapped' my Peasant card away, since otherwise I could win. However, looking at his game state, I realized that he would not benefit very much from owning a Peasant: He was rather down on his coin count, so it would take rather long for him to bounce back with that card. So I called his bluff: I claimed to still own the Peasant, despite the apparent swap, and alas, I won. This felt immensely satisfying and rather deductive, with an elegant simplicity to the logic. It shows how analytical the game can be at its best, despite the apparent randomness and lightness.
Mascarade benefits from beautiful components. The fourteen large Dixit-sized cards have stunning artwork that is very provocative of the theme (menacing comic book style caricatures). The first printing also comes with a free expansion card called The Usurper. The coin chits and courthouse tile are made from very thick, sturdy cardboard. The perfectly sized small box is even illustrated on the inside. Since the cards get passed around and handled a lot, sleeves are a must, and I recommend investing in quality in that regard, since any scuff marks could reveal cards whose identity ought to be secret.
Will it grow old fast?
The game is pleasantly customizable by giving the player the option of choosing a desired combination of identity cards to use (at least a third of which should generate money). Player aids and role chits do an adequate job of easing the trouble of following which roles are in play.
Overall, Mascarade satisfies the itch for role selection, but combines it with a memory game and ample opportunities to bluff and double bluff. It's amusing, involving and comically thematic.
+ The components are beautiful and of high quality. The illustrations evoke role play, dialogue and laughs.
+ The game has potential for more psychological analysis than may be obvious after just a few plays.
+ The chaos is amusing, without being overwhelming.
+ The different identities seem incredibly well balanced.
+ By customizing the combination of starting identities, the general feel of the game changes enough to feel fresh each time. This is a strong antidote to boredom.
+ The game is a breeze to teach and each individual turn plays fast.
+ Since the rules assert that a special power that was revealed on the previous player's turn may not be activated, there is a curious significance as to which identities sit in neighboring spots. This adds to the tactical depth of the game. Keep your friends close, and your enemies even closer!
- There are a number of foreign language rulebooks to throw away, and the English player aids have Spanish text on the opposite side. It doesn't affect gameplay in the slightest, but it feels like an odd solution to find in a package that generally has a great sense of esthetic.
- In game sessions with a high number of players, it is hard to pull off planned strategies, because so many unpredictable things can happen between turns. One is often forced to 'sacrifice a turn' simply to prevent another player from winning.
- In a large game of 10+ players, where several people are on the verge of victory, deciding the winner may feel as if it just comes down to turn order and initiative. This can feel anti-climactic, especially since games with a higher player count tend to take longer to complete. Eight players might be the sweet spot for larger games.
- Although the game is very balanced, some cards, such as The Spy, seem overpowered in games with very few players. However, it is easy to swap cards in and out for the future games... it is helpful that some cards are officially recommended only for games with 8+ players. On the other hand, it is unfortunate that in a game that arguably works better with 5 rather than 10, so many cards have this 8+ restriction.
- There is a slight drought of interesting female characters. However, the blank card called The Beggar is encouraged to be used creatively for role creation.
What's a good special power for The Beggar?
Nice write-up. Love your Beggar ideas!
Thumbed for the title alone! Thanks for the review. Can't wait to get this.
"the English player aids have Spanish text on the opposite side"
How is that a Con? Just don't turn over the aid.
That's a good question. I guess it just feels a bit cheap to me.
We open up this majestic looking game where half of the fun is in the beauty and elegance of the components, with luxurious attention to art and detail. It's not just black text on white background... everything adds to the experience. We set everything up and then someone asks 'oh, but this one is in Spanish' and we have to say 'just flip it over, guess they cut costs in printing'. Suddenly the luxurious feeling is gone.
Although I love multiculturalism and diversity more than anything, it shouldn't be possible to set up a component on the table and to accidentally have it be unintelligible without flipping it. It's no big deal, but it's just not elegant.
Functionally, there's nothing wrong with it, nor will it bother most people(?), but it comes down to aesthetics and detail. When Steve Jobs designed a computer or a bookshelf, he put special attention to details that we don't usually look at (the back of the bookshelf, the paintjob and screws on the inside of the computer case). Even if we never check those things out, the knowledge that they are there makes a difference. For example, Mascarade has beautiful art on the inside of the box, for no reason other than giving off a nice touch.
I don't need Spanish instructions during my game, and they play no part in my game, so I would prefer them to be absent, or for them to be there separately, so that I can throw away whatever I don't need. I think beauty isn't just about what is included, but also about what isn't included (all extraneous things).
I'll be purchasing this game as soon as it's available. I was wondering if anyone knew what the best sleeves were for this game.
Nice little rules summary and review (although, since you analysed quite a few aspects, I did miss a comparison with other recent bluffing games. But, then again, you might not have played them).
I'm also surprised (and a little disappointed) that you consider multilanguage components a con, and a cheap one at that. I wish to state my opinion to the contrary, lest publishers become tempted to make monolingual games (since I also heard one of The Dice Tower team complain about including rules in several languages).
I might add that, in particular, rules and components with English and Spanish on opposite sides sounds perfect for me, as both are my mother tongues and I usually play with Spanish speakers but occasionally with English speakers. As I say, this is a very strong plus!
The primary reason I would buy this would be to support a player count of 6 or more in a mixed group. But in this case your description gives it the similar attribute to Citadels, with excessively long wait periods between player turns on the 7- or 8-player game. This is unfortunate.
It's nowhere near as bad as Citadels because you're very often involved during other players' turns; if not directly, then at least watching like a hawk how the cards are moving around!
I quite enjoyed the 12 player game I had recently, the chaos is delightful. My local group often plays high player count fillers to round off an evening, and I think this one was the most fun yet.
Even though I have no trouble with English, not everyone I play with feels the same way. So I think the multi-language option is pretty great!
Imm sold on this game, Citadels 2P is really really good (hated it with 4).
I'm also in the 'thumbs up for multi-language' camp too, I must say.

Q: Replace carousel with static image I have a webpage with a carousel but I prefer not to load it when rendered in a mobile device.
How can I skip the initialization on mobile devices?
I came up with something like that (not optimized yet):
    jQuery(function($){
  if($(window).width() > 767){
    $('.flexslider').flexslider({
      directionNav: false,
      controlNav: false
    });
  }

  $(window).resize(function() {
    if($(window).width() > 767){
      $('.flexslider').flexslider({
        directionNav: false,
        controlNav: false
      });
    }
  });
 });

But I feel there should be a better way to do it. Any ideas?
On the CSS side I simply hide all the slides but the first one so I have only 1 image visible.
Thanks

A: The site detectmobilebrowsers   has some javascript code to detect a mobile browser - you could just put an if round this and only instantiate the carousel if it is not a mobile browser.

The third hit & single off the Californian alternative rock/ punk rock group's top 10 smash 1999 album 'Enema Of The State'. No U.S. release exists for 'Adam's Song'. The Radio Edit of the title track is backed with live versions of 'Going Away To College', 'Adam's Song' and 'Wendy Clear'.


A few months ago, I got a call from Dr. Paul Hochfeld, who told me he was an emergency room physician from Corvallis, Oregon, and he had a request. Could he come to The Hastings Center to interview as part of a documentary on health care he planned to make? I was curious to know who was financing the film and where it would appear. He said he was financing it with his own money and the help of a few friends, and he didn't yet have a distributor.
I could hardly turn down someone with that kind of motivation. He came, interviewed me, asked me to suggest other names, and – remarkably enough – got some of the finest minds in American health care, among them Arnold S. Relman, Marcia Angell, and Stephanie Woolhandler. The film is now finished, and it is terrific.
The main theme of the documentary is health care costs. I have come to think the issue of cost control is just as important, even more important, than universal care, but it gets less attention, makes politicians more nervous and even more fuzzy than usual, and is one of the main reasons the number of uninsured is increasing. The film is built around some basic questions about costs, and it proceeds in a masterly was to answer them. Those interviewed come from a variety of medical and health policy backgrounds, and their comments are skillfully woven together. I find it hard to argue against his view that our system is focused more on money than on health and is driven largely by fear.
Dr. Hochfeld is now trying to find a distributor, ideally a public broadcasting station. I have a son who is a movie director, and I have seen him struggle to get his films distributed. I can readily empathize with anyone going through that wrenching process. It is exceedingly hard, for documentaries as well as for movies. Dr. Hochfeld's documentary is as good as any I have ever seen, including some made during the Clinton era in the mid-90s, when (for the nth time) a reform effort was under way.
For readers of this space, however, there is some good news. Dr. Hochfeld is willing to send a copy of the film on DVD to anyone who writes to him. The offer is not to be passed up, particularly for readers who might use it in a class or discussion group or maybe even tout it to a local PBS station. He can be reached at: phochfeld@msn.com. More information and a trailer can be found at www.ourailinghealthcare.com.
I would like to thank Dan for plugging my video. To elaborate on his kind comments, I would say my audience is the educated voter. My goal is to motivate them to contact, inform, and pressure their elected representatives in Washington. Surprisingly, our Lawmakers would actually rather hear from us than from the lobbyists. To succeed, we must make more noise than those full-time professionals, employed by those who profit from status quo. My target is the political process which is the barrier to substantive reform. I think there are many of us who share the vision of a health care system that is more about health and less about money and fear.

Google Pixel 3 Users Report Possible RAM And Camera Issues Following Device's Release
The Google Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL were released in the U.S. on Thursday, and in the two days since then, more and more users have been registering complaints about the device, including several who claim that the device has a hard time running multiple apps at the same time.
According to a report from Android Police, the Pixel 3 and 3 XL appear to be unable to run "more than a few apps at a time," a problem that might be related to the fact that the devices ship with only 4GB of RAM at a time when 6GB to 8GB RAM is considered the optimum amount of memory for a high-end phone. Based on the publication's tests, some apps tend to quit when more than three or four apps are open simultaneously, with taking a photo apparently an intense enough task to force Spotify to quit while playing music. Android Police also pointed out how many users took to Reddit, Twitter, and the site's own forums to complain about similar issues.
The memory allocation issues appear to date back to a few days prior to the Google Pixel 3 and 3 XL's U.S. release. As noted by Android Police, an advance review from Android Central's Daniel Bader revealed that music and podcast apps would close in the middle of playback and that some photos he took did not get saved afterward. The former bug was also experienced by Marques Brownlee, who demonstrated on YouTube how using the camera app could kill a music app in the background.
every time I criticize a bug or feature design on iOS, I often take for granted the kinds of things we NEVER see. https://t.co/DHLbBFIbth
— Kyle Seth Gray (@kylesethgray) October 19, 2018
Separately, The Verge reported that a number of Google Pixel 3 and 3 XL users reported not being able to save Google Camera photos, but added that the problem appears to occur on other Android phones, including the Pixel 2 and 2 XL, the Samsung Galaxy S9, and the Motorola Moto Z2. At the time of the report, users were suggesting workarounds, such as turning off Google Camera's HDR feature or leaving the app open until HDR processing wraps up.
It remains to be determined if a lack of RAM is really behind the problems plaguing Google Pixel 3 and 3 XL, and as Android Police stressed, other users have reported a trouble-free experience so far. However, in a comparison test pitting the Pixel 3 XL and the OnePlus 6, which comes with 8GB RAM, Android Police founder Artem Russakovskii found that running Chrome, Google+, and Twitter simultaneously could force Chrome to quit due to a lack of memory. Conversely, Russakovskii noted that the OnePlus 6 was able to run twice as many apps without the same issue occurring.

Bushy Run Battlefield
1253 Bushy Run Road
Jeannette, PA - 15644
Region: Laurel Highlands
The Battle of Bushy Run was a pivotal turning point in the nation's history. On August 5-6, 1763 Native American warriors, rebelling against British encroachment onto their lands and injurious policies and practices, battled a contingent of British soldiers in the area of Bushy Run. The British soldiers prevailed, dealing a serious blow to the Native American uprising known as Pontiac's Rebellion and their attempt to halt Britain's growing influence in North America. At the park's Visitor's Center, view interpretative exhibits and short film, then take a guided or self-guided tour of the 213-acre battlefield to picture for yourself the combatants' positions and maneuvers.

Residents Share Their Concerns Over Regional Airport
The Stephenson Farm was established in 1881, and could be impacted if the regional airport was built.
Supervisors Say They've Proposed A Mitigation Plan For 220th Street
Oskaloosa, Iowa – People in opposition to the new regional airport voiced their opinion to the Oskaloosa City Council on Monday evening during the public comments.
Nick Ryan, 1815 260th Street Oskaloosa, Iowa, was the first to address the Council on the subject.
Ryan referenced the comments he made during the previous city council meeting where he also shared his concerns in regards to the 28E agreement and had sent an email to the council members asking for a response to three questions.
Ryan thanked City Council member Doug Yates for his response but again asked the other council members for theirs, and that it should be considered they are making those statements on the record.
Ryan went on to say that the regional airport project has "been facilitated by unsubstantiated claims of economic development." Asking for the cities of Pella and Oskaloosa to prove those claims.
Ryan said he was going to be initiating an open records request of the city for documents that support the economic development conversation.
Ryan also said he intends to forward concerns that council members that are employed by Musco or its sister companies should abstain themselves from any vote in regards to the airport.
He informed the Council that he would be sending that information to Iowa Ethics, Attorney General of Iowa, and the Mahaska County Attorney's Office, among others.
"We the people ask this Council to do the right thing and stop this abuse of government power once and for all," Ryan said in the close of his prepared statement.
Council member Steve Burnett asked Ryan "What skin do you have in the game? In other words, do you have property that's going to be affected by the, do you own property that's affected by the airport?"
Ryan's address puts him living on a gravel road west of Beacon, but his mailing address is listed as Oskaloosa.
"No, I'm just a concerned citizen of Mahaska County that's worried that the cities of Pella and Oskaloosa are affecting, are engaging in a situation that affect all of our property rights," Ryan said in response.
"And you just mentioned Musco a little bit ago, and at the last meeting you villified Mr. Crookham, and I didn't hear any comments related to Pella Corp. or any of the folks that are also interested in this airport. Curious if it's a personal vendetta or why just partial vindictive speaking and not, why isn't it open to everybody I guess that's involved," Burnett asked of Ryan.
In those comments from the previous meeting, Ryan said he would like to see the city council work with the Mahaska County Board of Supervisors to terminate the 28E agreement for the regional airport. "It's quite obvious to any reasonable person that only a select few will truly benefit from this proposed airport. The general public seems to have no need or desire for it," referencing a public vote in 2005.
Ryan, in those comments, said that the Oskaloosa City Council went against the will of the people, and is using taxpayer funds "to forcibly separate farmers from their rightfully owned property via eminent domain and provide for the private air travel needs of big business."
Ryan went on to say that, "This is the type of thing that would/gives the appearance that the governing power in the city no longer rests with we the people, or even embodied in this building, but it's sometimes in the corner office across the street."
Further asking Ryan about his (Burnett's) statement to him (Ryan) about his previous meetings comments, Burnett asked if he was being unfair, and offered to go back and look at the last meeting video recording asking if Ryan had mentioned Pella Corp.
Ryan agreed that he only mentioned Musco, referencing a court case that accused Oskaloosa City Council members, Mahaska County Supervisors having a walking quorum with individuals from Musco in regards to a regional airport.
In the Iowa Court of Appeals, it was found that no such event happened. Ryan is referencing Musco's involvement in the early stages of negotiations.
Ryan said that he hasn't seen any other court documents that indicate an interest by another private corporation in regards to the regional airport.
Pella Corp did send out a press release stating their support of the regional airport in June of 2018, stating they've supported the new airport since 1998.
Ryan responding to Burnett said he "in no way was trying to villify, just trying to point out that there clearly is an interest by a private corporation and who the individuals were that perceived to communicate with those officials."
Steve Burnett said to Ryan, that he has never once spoken to Mr. Crookham about the airport. "Ever." He then thanked Ryan for answering his questions.
Ryan took his step into politics during the most recent race for Iowa House District 79, as a Libertarian. Republican Dustin Hite ultimately defeated him for the seat.
Brandon Molyneux, who lives at 514 South C in Oskaloosa, and also Chairman of the Libertarian Party of Mahaska County, urged the city council to end the 28E agreement for the regional airport.
Molyneux agreed with Ryan's previous comments stating, "the citizens have voted on this. The Board of Supervisors has terminated it, and also, like he said, a representative of government. Will you be a representative of government of the people."
Alicia Groenendyk, of rural Mahaska County and operator of the Facebook Page 'Stop The Airport From Being Built In Mahaska County' addressed the Council next.
"Eminent domain is for public use things like roads and schools. But all too often cities, like Pella and Oskaloosa, team up with their corporate friends to condemn perfectly fine properties, businesses, and livelihoods for development like this airport," Groenendyk said in opening.
"It is an unconstitutional abuse of eminent domain and must be stopped. How as members of this city council be ok what's happening just outside your city limits," Groenendyk added. "How is it that you've let the city of Pella tell you what is best for you. Oskaloosa has a perfectly good airport, and the last time I checked it was actually making money."
"It doesn't make sense that you would close down one airport making money to build one that more than likely will never break even," said Groenendyk. "How can you sit here and look at these landowners in the eyes and say this will be a benefit to all? How can you say it will be economic development? If I was on the city council, I'd worry about keeping Oskaloosa going. There are streets that need repair, buildings in need of repair, and a mall with a lot of empty stores and trouble keeping things in them."
"These landowners will not sell what they have worked so hard to keep in their families. Some for over 100 years," Groenendyk added. "Some will lose their inheritance to this project. We lose more and more farmland every year, making it harder to feed the world."
Groenendyk quoted case law that said property could be taken based on a mere promise that it would provide increased tax revenue and provide jobs. "A mere promise. Isn't that what you guys are saying about this project? This airport will bring in more money and jobs, but how can you make that promise? How do you know?"
"It's time we stand up for what is ours," said Groenendyk. "I'm here in support of these landowners and 100 percent against eminent domain for this project."
In a recent South Central Regional Airport meeting, it was disclosed that the SCRAA Board was in negotiations with a landowner for the purchase of their land.
Earlier in the day, the Mahaska County Board of Supervisors turned down a proposal made in a joint work session, with members of the SCRAA, Supervisors, and the cities of Pella and Oskaloosa, to form a committee to discuss options on farm to market road mitigation for 220th Street, which is scheduled to be severed for the new airport.
"I'm satisfied with what we've got," Mahaska County Supervisor Steve Wanders said of the current arrangement. "We gave them a plan. They need to follow coming from our engineering department. I don't see the purpose of another board."
"I tend to agree," said Mahaska County Supervisor Steve Parker in response to Wander's comment.
No official vote took place on the decision to forgo the committee.
The parties involved in the 28E agreement have been ordered to work towards resolving differences, especially in regards to 220th Street.
In a district court ruling in February of 2019, "The court notes that the road at issue here has not been closed or relocated. It appears to be Mahaska County's argument that the plan proposed by Plaintiffs effectively forces Mahaska County to close 220th Street. Plaintiffs argue that a service road will be created to accommodate agricultural vehicles and farm equipment. The question of whether the proposed plan actually forces Mahaska County to close or abandon 220th Street is a factual question reserved for the fact finder at trial. "Even if the facts are undisputed, summary judgment is not proper if reasonable minds could draw different inferences from them and thereby reach different conclusions." Clinkscales v. Nelson Securities, Inc, 697 N.W.2d 836, 841 (Iowa 2005). Whether Plaintiffs are requiring road closure based upon the proposed plans is an issue that reasonable minds could draw different inferences from and reach different conclusions. Therefore, Plaintiffs' Motion for Summary Judgment on the Defendant's Counterclaim must be denied.
The court then turns to Plaintiffs' request for a more detailed order regarding specific performance. As this issue is a matter of law and not a fact question, summary judgment is appropriate. When this court ruled on Plaintiffs' first Motion for Summary Judgment, it determined that Plaintiffs were entitled to specific performance as a remedy for Defendant's breach of contract, but declined to make specific findings. Plaintiffs now request the court order specific performance requiring Mahaska County comply with the Termination and Amendment Procedures of the 28E agreement, send its representative and participate in the SCRAA board meetings, and use best efforts to resolve issues regarding to road relocations.
Specifically, Plaintiffs' request the court order Mahaska County to put road relocation complaints in writing and require Plaintiffs have at least 60 days in which to respond. Mahaska County argues Plaintiffs are not entitled to specific performance because its nonperformance is excused due to Plaintiffs' breach of contract. This argument is unpersuasive as this court already found Mahaska County to be in breach and specific performance a permissible remedy. Mahaska County's argument is an indirect attack upon this court's earlier ruling and is insufficient to preclude summary judgment. However, Mahaska County's alternative argument that Plaintiffs are not entitled to specific performance concerning the road relocations has merit. To be entitled to a contractual remedy, a party must prove that a contract exists and a breach has occurred. Molo Oil Co. v. River City Ford Truck Sales, Inc., 578 N.W.2d 222, 224 (Iowa 1998). The court's ruling on the Plaintiffs' first Motion for Summary Judgment found that Mahaska County has breached the 28E agreement by its repudiation resolution and removing its SCRAA representative. Specific performance is to "best effectuate the purposes for which a contract is made." Lange, 520 N.W.2d at 117-118 (Iowa 1994). Therefore, Plaintiffs are entitled to specific performance regarding the provisions Mahaska County has been found to be in breach only."

(NEW YORK POST) – The World Health Organization will rename the increasingly spreading monkeypox virus after a group of scientists claimed the name could be "stigmatizing."
"WHO is also working with partners and experts from around the world on changing the name of monkeypox virus," WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus announced at a press briefing Tuesday.
"We will make announcements about the new names as soon as possible."
Dropping the monkeypox label follows a letter from a group of 30 international scientists that wrote last week the "urgent need" to switch the name.
"Given the increasingly rapid communication of, and attention to, the international human MPXV outbreak, it is important to consider an appropriate, non-discriminatory, and non-stigmatizing nomenclature and classification of MPXV clades," part of the letter states.
Viral clades are defined as other groups of organisms with the same genetic structure.
"In the context of the current global outbreak, continued reference to, and nomenclature of this virus being African is not only inaccurate but is also discriminatory and stigmatizing. The most obvious manifestation of this is the use of photos of African patients to depict the pox lesions in mainstream media in the global north. Recently, Foreign Press Association, Africa issued a statement urging the global media to stop using images of African people to highlight the outbreak in Europe."
The scientists propose "a novel classification of MPXV that is non-discriminatory and non-stigmatizing and aligned with best practices in naming of infectious diseases in a way that minimizes unnecessary negative impacts on nations, geographic regions, economies and people and that considers the evolution and spread of the virus."
A WHO spokesperson said in an email to Bloomberg News that naming diseases "should be done with the aim to minimize the negative impact and avoid causing offense to any cultural, social, national, regional, professional or ethnic groups."
The WHO will consult with experts in orthopoxviruses, which includes monkeypox, for more appropriate names, the spokesperson said, according to Bloomberg.
There are 71 cases in 18 states, according to the Centers for Control Disease and Prevention. New York and California have the most cases with 15 each.
There are 1,600 confirmed cases and another 1,500 suspected ones worldwide so far this year that have been found in 39 countries. The virus has killed 72 people globally.
Symptoms for the disease include flu-like sickness and rashes and the illness spreads through close contact.

We never thought about making our own angel food cake until Michael's roommate, Rich asked for help making one for his girlfriend a couple of months ago. Rich isn't too much of a cook, so it was fun teaching him how to separate out the egg whites and how to know when stiff peaks are formed :) His turned out great, but we didn't get to snap a photo of it before it got eaten up. Finally we've gotten around to making a second one for some pics. The recipe came from allrecipes.com. It's very light and better than any store bought one in my opinion. The best part about angel food cake is that each serving only has 100 calories and no fat! Of course we had to make some whipped cream to go along with it, which sorta nixed the fat-free idea - but it was totally worth it :) We also topped it with some blueberries and diced strawberries. Dress it up however you'd like & enjoy!
Separate eggs; discard yolks. Measure egg whites, adding or removing whites as needed to equal 1-1/2 cups. Place in a mixing bowl; let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, sift confectioners' sugar and flour together three times; set aside.
Add cream of tartar, extracts and salt to egg whites; beat on high speed. Gradually add sugar, beating until sugar is dissolved and stiff peaks form.
Fold in flour mixture, 1/4 cup at a time. Gently spoon into an ungreased 10-in. tube pan. Cut through batter with a knife to remove air pockets.
Bake for 40-45 minutes or until cake springs back when lightly touched. Immediately invert pan; cool completely before removing cake from pan.
I've never dared trying allrecipe. I'm always worried about the accuracy of the measurements but apparently, it works well since your angel food cake looks so moist and perfect. I bet the cream of tartar really helps. But wow 12 eggs!
Looks absolutely delicious. You know, people have been telling me how easy it is to make angel food cake and how much better the homemade version tastes than the store-bought kind, but so far I have not made it. And I have had the pan for, like, 5 years now. I don't know what's that about.
I love making angle food cake, the only problem is that it's so spongy and light I could eat the whole cake and not even know it until I saw the empty plate. I think I might have made this one before, yours looks terrific! And with all that whip cream and strawberries...yum!!
I haven't tried baking.I really don't know how.It's my sister who bakes and I do the taste tests.lol.
Your angel looks amazingly delicious..
That looks amazing!! I'm still to scared to attempt angel food cake.
Angel food cake is one of my favorite desserts! I love all the fresh berries and vibrant colors.

Angel food cake is a favorite of mine. This looks absolutely perfect. LOVE your presentation!
This angel food cake looks perfect. Especially with the berries. I bet angels would like to eat it.
My mother made angel food cake almost every week when we were young. Here's never looks this gorgeous.
I love angel food since you can eat so much of it (well, at least you can think that since it's healthier for you than a brownie). I'm actually running the nyc 1/2 this summer and the full in Nov. I've done a bunch of halves, but this will be my first full. A little scared!
I love angel food cake...but....have never made it from scratch! I'm inspired! Great photo too by the way..I almost bit into the computer screen!
Angel food cake is a favorite. Somehow, we don't feel quite as guilty eating it.
Your photo is so good, it makes me want to give this one a try.
Your cake looks delicious! I love angel food.
Angel food cake is so perfect during the summer with fresh berries! Looks SO good!
Looks wonderful! I agree about being way better than store bought. I made one a few months ago and it was delicious. I served it with lemon curd, mmmmm!
I've always wanted to make my own Angel Food cake but never knew if it was easy, etc. yours looks terrific!
We've only made one angel food cake in our lives, and we thought it was a success, though nervewracking as we hoped it'd pop out of the dish without a problem. It's one of the best desserts for the summer. And you've topped it with sweet berries...yum!
I havent made homemade angel food cake in years. Literally. I might be up to the challenge now! Great pics!!
Okay, I am just moving in with you two :) I like this with strawberry icing on it, as it is a childhood treat I remember well!
I love angel food cake. It is not often that I bake something that I can actually eat in large quantities.

NWSL Draft: Angel City makes Alyssa Thompson the 1st HS player taken No. 1 overall
Jack Baer
·Writer
Alyssa Thompson is staying in Los Angeles with Angel City, and all it took was some NWSL Draft history to make it happen.
With the first overall pick of the 2023 NWSL Draft, Angel City made the Harvard-Westlake forward the first high school athlete to hear her name called first in the league's 10-year history.
Thompson's selection was widely expected after Angel City acquired the first overall pick from NJ/NY Gotham FC last week in a deal that saw it trade its natural No. 5 pick and a second-round pick in 2024, plus $200,000 in allocation money, to Portland Thorns FC for Yazmeen Ryan, then send Ryan and $250,000 to Gotham.
That deal made the 18-year-old Thompson essentially the most expensive player in league history, as the previous most-expensive deal by allocation money was the San Diego Wave's acquisition of USWNT star Alex Morgan for $275,000, per the Los Angeles Times.
What's more, Thompson's agents told the Times' Luca Evans that she has signed a three-year deal with Angel City they say is the largest for any NWSL player under 25.
Angel City is certainly expecting the price to be worth it. Thompson, who was previously committed to play at Stanford, won the prestigious Gatorade High School Player of the Year award in 2021 after scoring 48 goals in 18 games. No, that statistic is not a typo.
Thompson is also one of the top high school sprinters in the state of California and made her USWNT senior team debut last year.

Thompson won't be entirely unprecedented as a top player entering the NSWL without college experience, as Washington Spirit star Trinity Rodman joined her team in 2021 after not playing a game in her college career at Washington State. That move has more than worked out for the Spirit.
2023 NWSL first-round draft picks
Angel City FC: Alyssa Thompson, F, Harvard-Westlake High School
Kansas City Current: Michelle Cooper, F, Duke
Orlando Pride: Emily Madril, D, Florida State
NJ/NY Gotham FC: Jenna Nighswonger, M, Florida State
Portland Thorns FC: Reyna Reyes, D, Alabama
North Carolina Courage: Olivia Wingate, F, Notre Dame
Chicago Red Stars: Penelope Hocking, F, Penn State
North Carolina Courage: Sydney Collins, D, University of California
North Carolina Courage: Clara Robbins, M, Florida State
Kansas City Current: Alexa Spaanstra, F, Virginia
North Carolina Courage: Haley Hopkins, F, Virginia
Portland Thorns FC: Izzy D'Aquila, F, Santa Clara

10 Of The World's Most Ruthless Dictators
A dictator is defined as a person who rules a country with absolute authority and often rules in a brutal manner. All throughout history, several dictators had stayed in their position for very long to hold supreme power. Often they used their power to force what they want even at the expense of human lives and properties.
May the people today acknowledge the sacrifices of the people who were subjected to the tyranny of these dictators. Likewise, may the world learn from the painful history of the past to avoid the rise of dictatorship.
Ismail Enver Pasha
Ismail Enver Pasha was the leader of the Ottoman Empire during the Balkan Wars and World War I. However, he was always defeated during the war and, to cover his loss, he blamed the Armenians for his failures. Since he blamed the Armenians, he started the Armenian Genocide. The term genocide was first used to describe what Pasha leadership had done to the Armenians.
Pasha was responsible for 1.2 million deaths of Armenians, 350,000 Greek Pontians, 500,000 Assyrians and 480,000 Anatolian Greeks.
He was killed on August 4th, 1922 after a surprised attack from his enemies.
Idi Amin was the third President of Uganda. His rule was marked with brutality, human rights abuse and ethnic persecution. He was also even called as the "Butcher of Uganda". His opponents were tortured and imprisoned before their deaths.
People were killed in brutal ways like cutting the limbs or the genitals or even flaying the humans alive. Experts believe that Amin was in charge for between 100,000 to 500,000 deaths. After his regime, he fled to Libya and then Saudi Arabia.
Amin had died in Saudi Arabia on August 16th, 2003.


One approach to putting forth an extremely bold style articulation is with the best possible utilization of ladies' stylish blazers.

Fashion blazers are accessible in a colossal assortment of hues, plans, and even lengths. The decent thing about this kind of apparel is that you can make it work in any mold setting from formal down to exceptionally easygoing. Match up a dark overcoat with a couple of pants, or pick a white blazer for an increasingly upscale look.

Ladies of each culture make the thing in like manner: they adore stylish ladies' garments. Regardless of whether the modern fashion designers are sufficiently popular to have their own line of attire like Chicgostyle or are as yet working to start a clothing store, these originators have a genuine talent for getting the correct styles to the stores at the perfect time. This is on the grounds that being style forward is more than following patterns.
This is a result of the present high importance on form for ladies. Something different that our creators consider is the solace.

Solace for working ladies is particularly basic. Hence, our brand completely focuses on both fashion and comfort of our customers.


It is often difficult to tell a trustworthy online company from the rest of the pack. Here is a short guide to help you find a reliable credit repair services. Of note, some credit repair services only operate in select states, while other larger firms may work throughout the country. It shouldn't make a difference either-way if a company only operates in one state or if they operate nationwide. There will always be pros and cons in this regard when looking for reputable credit repair companies.
Almost anyone can start a credit repair business. You need to buy a few software programs and you are in business. But, the programs will not provide you with expertise and experience in the industry. So the first thing you should check when shopping for a credit repair service is how long they have been in business. Your credit score is such an important aspect of your life to trust with someone who is not well experienced in the business. Choose a company that has been in business for several years. You can always check their Best Business Bureau (BBB) profile to know how long they have been operating.
According to the Federal Credit Repair Organization Act, the best credit repair companies should NOT charge any upfront fees. These fees can not begin until the service is performed. Walk away from a company that asks for upfront fees. There are credit repair companies out that there that do a great job and only charge a fee after the service has been performed.
Does it have a physical location?
A company with a physical location looks more stable than one which only exists online. Likewise, a company operating behind a P.O Box address looks suspect. A physical address shows the company has the intention to provide quality services for a long time. Take time to check the company's location via Google Maps to verify its physical address.
What payment options do they provide?
A reliable credit repair firm should at least accept online payment via credit cards. At best, they should be able to process payments by credit card on their own rather than via third parties such as PayPal. You are better off avoiding credit repair services that accept cash or money orders only.
When these companies first appeared on the market, their core service was handling credit bureau disputes. The method was useful in cleaning a client's credit report but took a long time. It also never worked for most people because it only addressed 35% of one's credit score. Things are quite different today. Many of these online reputation companies should provide with extra services. These options include, direct creditor disputes, credit score lessons, debt validation, and letters of goodwill. Find a company that provides all these services and more.
Many companies will give you promises that are too good to be true. They'll tell you how they can create a completely new credit report for you or guarantee you 700 score and much more. It is illegal to do some of these things so don't be fooled. Find a reputable repair company that tells you exactly what they can provide. Be realistic in your expectations too.
