The 14th Vans "Rumble in the Park" skate contest took place during June 2018 in Austria and once again set the standards in amazing skateboarding skills (despite a short period of bad weather!).
The level of the riders that took part on the day whether they were professional or amateur was incredible. The crowd of all ages were constantly kept entertained - with the youngest starter being 12 years old and the eldest being 37.
The Full Pull Truck, Vans waffle stand and the "GEI" bar blasting out the sound of DJ Kompact provided the legendary "rumble flair".
Olympic hope Santino Exenberger took part in the event and showcased everything he had and achieved 1st place in the Street competition and 2nd place in the Bowl competition.
Professional skater Marco Kada dominated the Best Trick competition and landed 3 best tricks on the mighty gap. A young up-and-coming talented rider from Salzburg, Lorenz Schneider, showed everyone his amazing skills and claimed the ceramic trophy by demonstrating high airs and super stylish tricks!
The local riders also gave everything they had, in particular Thomas Aitzetmüller, who reached 3rd place in the street competition.
This year Vice Mayor Wolfgang Schleier presented the trophies and was overwhelmed by the impressive performance of the riders, especially in the Best Trick competition.
The level of all riders who took part were extremely high and it wasn't an easy decision for the judges when they had to deliberate the winners.
After the award ceremony ended there was an afterparty which took place at GEI in Timelkam, where DJ Phekt, DJ Kompact and Mountain Top performed - which was the perfect ending to a spectacular day.
Thank you to all the volunteers, riders and spectators who attended this awesome event, and we are looking forward to next year's rumble!

Gippsland South The Nationals Korumburra Small business
O'Brien listens to Korumburra
"As part of my role as The Nationals Member for Gippsland South, I believe it is crucial that I am accessible to all of my constituents, no matter where in the electorate they live.
"People's issues often go unheard because they either have mobility issues, are too busy or find it's too difficult to visit their local MP's office, so this allows people to raise matters important to them without having to leave their town.
"I am always willing to arrange appointments at locations that best suit constituents, but these mobile offices give me a chance to directly engage in a local setting while supporting local businesses, which are the lifeblood of communities such as Korumburra."
Mr O'Brien thanked the Kelly family – Jason, Tarli, Gilbert and Lyn – and staff for their fantastic hospitality and allowing him to set up his office in their café.
"We all know that this end of the electorate experiences more wet and cold days than most of the other areas, and there's nothing better than a Kelly's Bakery pie to warm the cockles of your heart on such days," Mr O'Brien said.
Mr O'Brien said he would follow up each of the matters on behalf of his constituents to ensure they get the attention they deserve.
"I'll be visiting a different town each month, with my August visit pencilled in for Rosedale."
The Nationals Member for Gippsland South Danny O'Brien discussed water security and issues affecting small business with president of the Korumburra Business Association David Amor at Tuesday's mobile electorate office at Kelly's Bakery.

Our marble mobile wall piece has been in development for some time. All of the basic elements of gravitational entertainment are in place. The next item we want to research is to combat these forces.
How do we raise the marble back to the starting position?
We start by researching how others have solved this challenge in the past. There have been attempts, but none to be flat against a wall. The closest we found is a wall piece that juts out a bit. Not too much, but more than our goals. It's a super nice innovation.
He uses the roller chain elevation method in a beautiful build. If you look close you can see a second method of lifting a marble, the circle way. He has a toggle and a levered bucket drop which are really pretty. Check it out and see what other techniques he uses in the descent of each marble.
I've started to sketch out the problems I have to solve. The motor, sprockets, chain, little elevator buckets, etc.
We also want to mention the actual marble. It's very important, eh. In researching the elevation, we found a link to a site specializing in marble retain.
In our design, we used a 5/8 router bit, but the marble needs to be smaller than that. We don't want to buy a bag of bulk marbles and find 2 that are the right size. This site will help us find the exact size of marble we need. Or we will use a bigger router bit. We are flexible that way.


The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Scientific Visualization Studio collection contains visualizations produced from satellite data or from computer simulations of geophysical phenomena using such satellite data. The visualizations show physical phenomena that occur on Earth, other planets, and the sun. The visualizations focus on natural events such as hurricanes, fires, and floods, virtual zooms and fly-bys of cities and interesting geographic areas of Earth and Mars, and daily, seasonal, annual, or decadal variations of snow, sea ice, ozone, sea surface temperature, aerosols, land cover, and ocean productivity.
El Nino, a periodic warming of the Eastern Pacific Ocean, is among Earths most powerful phenomena. Satellite, ship, and buoy observations show the 1997-98 event as the strongest on record. Visualizing how sea-surface height, sea-surface temperature, and sea-surface winds differ from normal conditions reveals the events magnitude.
A relatively warm Antarctic winter in 2004 kept the thinning of the protective ozone layer over Antarctica, known as the ozone hole, slightly smaller than in 2003. Each year the hole expands over Antarctica, sometimes reaching populated areas of South America and exposing them to ultraviolet rays normally absorbed by ozone. Scientists have new tools to study this annual phenomenon, and the human-produced compounds that contribute to ozone breakdown are decreasing. On September 22, 2004, ozone thinning over Antarctica reached its maximum extent for the year at 24.2 million square kilometers (9.4 million square miles). The largest maximum area on record was 29.2 million square kilometers, in 2000. On October 5, 2004, the ozone layer reached a low value of 99 Dobson Units.

If someone was able to make pc games, and say they made a game which was practicaly the same as a game on the xbox or ps2 which had not been released on the pc. That would make that game a clone?
Im quite interested in game making and am thinking of learning how to do it. If i did make a game and it was classed as a clone would you lot be interested in testing it?
A "clone" is a game in the style of. Like say you create a game that plays and looks like Asteroids. That's a clone. Now, what's gets tricky is the fact that I wouldn't consider creating a game of today in such a fashion. You can take alot from a game from today and put it in your game, but there are so many intricacies in today's game it wouldn't technically be a clone. It would be a rip-off, but I'm not saying that in a bad way. Most games of today are rips of each other.
I hope I'm answering that somewhat. I think it's just my personal opinion, though.
So it would be nearly impossible for me to clone a game, but it would be fine to create a game that is very similar and then put it online 4 u lot to download 4 free!
that would be cool. good luck with it.

Getting the correct poles is an important first step when starting to Nordic Walk – it is also important not to confuse these with ordinary trekking or walking poles – which are designed for a different purpose, use a different technique and achieve different benefits.
Nordic Walking poles are specially designed to work in harmony with the correct Nordic Walking technique – ensuring that the movement is fluid and that the poles become an extension of the body. This is why it is also important to ensure that the poles are the correct size – ensuring maximum benefit and avoidance of injuries.
Capital Nordic Walking provides high quality equipment in partnership with leading Australian and International Nordic Walking organisations ensuring that a range of poles with different features and prices are available to meet different requirements.
Nordic Walking poles come with different features that suit the needs and requirements of different users. And although there is a general sizing chart to assist selection of the correct length pole – everyone's body proportions – torso, arm and leg length – are different. We recommend that you try out the different models of poles during your Nordic Walking lesson to ensure that you get the correct length pole with features that meet your needs.
Choosing a quality and correctly sized pair of poles is extremely important, so seeking advice is strongly recommended. Consider your budget but don't skimp on quality or be fooled by 'cheap' imitations, as they will most likely end up costing you more money in the long run. As a general rule, a pair of quality poles will cost between around $160 and $280.
WHAT MAKES A GOOD NORDIC WALKING POLE?
Is it a PROPER Nordic Walking strap (rather than a simple loop where you put your hand through)?
Is the wrist strap detachable?
Does the wrist strap provide control and proper function?
It the correct size for your hand?
Carbon composites make for lighter and more flexible poles, which gives a better swing movement than heavier adjustable models. Fibreglass or carbon-alloy composites are cheaper options. But beware of cheap aluminium poles (they are more likely to break)!
How much walking will you do on hard surfaces?


Tomorrow morning, the preliminary estimate for UK fourth quarter GDP growth will be announced, and we'll get a first impression of annual growth for 2015.
Tomorrow morning, the preliminary estimate for UK fourth quarter GDP growth will be announced, and we'll get a first impression of annual growth for 2015. In preparation for that, this week's chart shows the World Bank's latest global GDP projections, taken from their recent Global Outlook report.
The chart shows annual percentage growth in Gross Domestic Product (GDP) at market prices, estimated for 2016 and forecast for 2016-18, for four different groups. In red is the world average, in blue is the BRICS group of countries, in green is the average for "High Income" countries, and in orange is the UK.
In 2015, overall growth in the BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) is estimated to fall significantly, to under 4%, as growth slows in four out of the five countries (all but India). This has had an important effect on global growth; the World Bank estimates that a 1 percentage point decline in the growth of the BRICS will have a 0.4 percentage point impact on global growth over the following two years. You can see from the chart that global growth in 2015 is estimated to be slower than in 2014, before recovering in 2016 onwards. This forecast is (perhaps optimistically) relying on a fast recovery in the BRICS' growth rate back above 5% a year. With the carefully managed Chinese slowdown set to continue, and commodity prices still at very low levels, this may not happen as quickly as they have forecast.
The World Bank's figures certainly make the UK's growth rate look impressive: the UK was one of very few high income countries to out-perform the global average in 2014, and annual growth rates are not forecast to return to the high income average until 2018.

Jennifer Lopez had a fun Thanksgiving with her fiance Alex Rodriguez and her daughters, based on a funny video on Instagram Live that she shared with fans this week. Lopez was joined by Natasha Rodriguez, 16, and Ella Rodriguez, 12, as she danced to her new song "In The Morning" and "Body" by Megan Thee Stallion. Lopez released "In the Morning" on Friday, accompanied by a nude photo cover for the single.
As Lopez and Rodriguez's daughters danced to the two songs, Lopez's 12-year-old twins Emme and Max, whom she shares with ex-husband Marc Antony, could be seen joining at one point, note HollywoodLife. Lopez also shared a clip from the Instagram Live session on his profile, showing Rodriguez joining in the fun. "ICYMI … our Lil [In The Morning] virtual dance party was [fire]", Lopez wrote." Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend !!! "
While fans loved seeing this fun look at Rodriguez and Lopez's life at home, the couple have faced criticism for traveling during the Thanksgiving vacation. Rodriguez shared a photo of Lopez on their private jet on Monday. "We have so much to be thankful for and are delighted to be returning home to spend time with the family. What are your vacation plans?" Rodriguez asked.
Most fans responded to this question by pointing out that they are staying home for Thanksgiving and cannot travel to be with their families due to the coronavirus pandemic. "Hmm let's see … stay home lol can't visit family because of the pandemic," one person wrote. "Stay home in my bubble away from all of our children and grandchildren," wrote another. "[Must] be pleasant to travel. Most of us don't have that luxury, "wrote another Instagram user.
On Sunday night, Lopez performed "Pa Ti" and "Lonely" with Maluma at the American Music Awards. This performance angered some viewers, who thought her performance looked a lot like Beyonce's performance of "Drunk in Love" at the 2014 Grammys. Lopez danced with a chair in black, blue and red lighting, similar to the 2014 routine of Beyonce, note E! News. "J. Lo copied Beyoncé's AMA performance in 2013 and no one can tell me otherwise. She did the hairstyle, the poses, the outfit, the attitude," tweeted one viewer. "Damn, she even did that pre-recorded live… too. I'm sorry, Queen B has to continue.

One of the social initiatives that the Aqua team has organised and participated in this year is the "Adopt a Family Project". With the ever-growing refugee crisis that is being highlighted daily in the news and that many are faced with on a daily basis, Aqua was made aware of some immigrant and refugee families and their specific needs and wanted to get involved.
This initiative is focused on providing sustainable and long term support of specific families to cover annual costs of basic needs like rent and food as well as to provide educational support and school fees to the children of the refugee families who are eager and determined to excel in their studies in spite of their challenging circumstances.
The idea was put forth to the Aqua Staff and everyone signed up to adopt one of the needy families and connect with them on a personal basis to add encouragement and to personalise the efforts.
Aqua is working with a local registered organisation to ensure that the families receive the food and assistance as quickly as possible and in a way that will benefit them depending on each different situation.
While the 'Adopt a Family' initiative is a small start and the need is very big,Aqua believes in doing what it can to reach out and make a difference to one family at a time.

Reginaldo on Black Is King
Feb 24, 2021 - 17:47 Updated: Mar 11, 2021 - 18:08
Reginaldo Antunes is a talented Namibian creative who worked on Beyoncé's latest visual album that was released globally July 31, 2020 on Disney plus.
Antunes made it possible to work on the production of Black is king through his projects of the same creation.
"So basically I was working on my own projects of a similar nature did an art exhibition last year and I used Ovahimba ladies, I continued working with them and I created a relationship with them. I would constantly go back to them and post pictures of them on my social media accounts. Having the right people follow me, one of my friends from South Africa who also worked on the project, contacted me with the Ovahimba ladies so then I got on board," he said.
Additionally, apart from himself and the two ladies from the Ovahimba culture they are the only Namibians who worked on the project, he said.
Black is king was filmed in various countries such as Ghana, Nigeria, Belgium, the U.S, the U.K and South Africa, just to name a few.
"The movie and music videos were filmed in different parts of the world and they were brought together but the scenes that we worked on were done in Zululand, Durban," he says.
The Scenes that involve the Ovahimba ladies:
"Black is king is focused on Simba from the Lion king and what happens is that he loses his crown to his uncle who misleads him and misguides him, so he then needs to find himself back at the Ovahimba people who are basically a point of reference of our original culture, before the west came and told us that being black was not good enough or wearing your traditional attire was not good enough, that is what we used to wear before, so the scenes which they were filming was more were the older Simba comes and he finds himself, he comes back to his people, to his originality," he said.
According to Antunes, black is worthy and black is king, having melanin in your skin, having nappy hair and having curls is more than good enough.
"Speaking about Black is king personally, us as black people we have been stripped off our dignity and our identity and as I said earlier, the movie is focused on Simba who loses his crown and he loses himself, it is a journey whereby you need to find yourself, you need to find your identity and you need to get your identity back, it is just realising that it is good to be black," he said.
"I am really proud to have worked in this art piece because before that I was working on my own art, I did it from the bottom of my heart where I was trying to educate other black people. We need to get our own dignity, we need to accept ourselves and our identity back because if we do not know who we are other people will then define us and they will tell us what to wear, what Gods to worship, how we should be and behave, they can take advantage of that for their own benefit and not for us, our heritage and our culture will become extinct," he says.
Antunes dreams of working with big personalities "I would not mind working with Kanye west, Lady gaga, Pharrell wiliams just to mention a few. I always feel like dreams are free and why not dream big and I mean, I never knew that I would be on credits of a Beyoncé production and here I am," he said.

Within 120 seconds, a man receives a pair of tickets from speed cameras more than three-and-a-half miles apart.
A motorist in Victoria, Australia received a pair of tickets from two speed cameras in just two minutes. At 4:41pm on February 28, the man received a ticket for driving 71km/h (44 MPH) outside Healesville Sanctuary. At 4:43pm, he received a ticket for driving 68km/h (42 MPH) in a 60km/h zone (37 MPH) by a camera 5.7km (3.54 miles) distant on Maroondah Highway.
For the cameras to have been accurate, he would have had to be driving past the second camera at 106 miles per hour, not 42 MPH. Police are investigating the matter while speed camera vendor Tenix told the Herald Sun that the cameras were working.

PG Tips is based in London, U.K., providing the people of Britain (and around the world) delicious tea since the 1930's.
A cup of tea in the U.K. is known as a 'cuppa' and this seasoned tea company advises that it's the nation's favorite cuppa, delivering a terrific range of teas, from fruit, herbal teas and green teas to premium blends and decaf.
In 1869, Arthur Brooke established his first shop in Manchester, offering reliably delicious tea blends which led to the success of his company and the nation's first cuppa.
Under the name 'Pre-Gest-Tea' (alluding to the Digestive Tea idea of having a cuppa before dinner) Arthur launched his new brand in the U.K. in the 1930's.
Store-owners abbreviated the name to PG and Arthur added the 'tips' to indicate how this tea company uses only the top two leaves and bud of each plant.
PG Tips' first television commercial was broadcast in 1956 and in the 1960's, this tea company stunned the nation when it introduced the first tea bag. It didn't take long for tea bags to outsell loose-leaf tea and in the 1980's, the mug revolution came along.
At that time, 50% of tea sippers were using a mug rather than using proper tea cups and tea pots. It was then that PG Tips came up with stringed tea bags, just for mugs.
Then the revolutionary pyramid bag was launched by this tea company in the '90's, with enough room inside to act like a tea pot, allowing the leaves to move and steep better.
PG Tips' first decaf line was released in 2004 and in 2005, they celebrated 75 years by commissioning a hand-crafted diamond tea bag worth £7,000.
In 2006, Monkey the mascot arrived on the scene. Like a puppet with a personality, he has a passion for tea and enjoys a level of celebrity afforded by the fact that he's become a national treasure.
Since then, PG Tips has gone from strength to strength, evolving and continuing to create their famously tasty cuppas, which are less than 0.2% caffeine.
In the U.K., tea is the second most consumed beverage after water, so PG Tips makes sure that they continue to reduce the impact of all that production of tea on the environment, including Rainforest Alliance certification.
This tea company is proud to be the first major label in the U.K. to sell black and green teas that are fully Rainforest Alliance certified.
Also focusing on waste, PG Tips works closely with their master blenders to deliver great tasting tea with approximately 0.2 grams of tea per bag. This practice has reduced almost 1,000 tons of waste going into landfills each year.
If you're a tea drinker who doesn't like to mess around with anything less than a robust cup of tea, then PG Tips has a strong, bold blend to kick-start your day. Using their famous pyramid bags, this tea provides a bright color and richly satisfying flavor. This blend is considered a real British cuppa. Need a little extra kick you can only get from tea for a sore throat? This is a good place to start.
According to PG Tips, Zen is just a mug away with this deliciously smooth Green tea.
Considered England's favorite, this fresh and pure tea is crafted from only the freshest tea leaves, which are dried within hours of picking. If you're a green tea purist, you might want to check out this delicious blend.
This tea is considered PG Tips' best quality blend, with a fine mix of African, Sri Lankan and Indian Assam teas. A complex and balanced blend which is considered this tea company's most indulgent cuppa, has a bright, golden color and rich aroma, making it an extra special tea.
Reviewers love it and advise that it doesn't get bitter, no matter how long it's steeped.
PG Tips is a well-loved and trusted tea company in Britain, offering tea pods and granules for those who prefer a different way of preparing their brew.
Check out their no-nonsense, user-friendly website that has a section all about tea and the benefits of green tea. Find out what all the fuss is about and make a cuppa worth remembering.

Characterization of ultrafine particles from hardfacing coated brake rotors
Yezhe Lyu, Ankur Sinha, Ulf Olofsson, Stefano Gialanella, Jens Wahlström
Department of Mechanical Engineering Sciences
Automotive brake rotors are commonly made from gray cast iron (GCI). During usage, brake rotors are gradually worn off and periodically replaced. Currently, replaced brake rotors are mostly remelted to produce brand-new cast iron products, resulting in a relatively high energy consumption and carbon footprint into the environment. In addition, automotive brakes emit airborne particles. Some of the emitted particles are categorized as ultrafine, which are sized below 100 nm, leading to a series of health and environmental impacts. In this study, two surface treatment techniques are applied, i.e., high-velocity oxygen fuel (HVOF) and laser cladding (LC), to overlay wear-resistant coatings on conventional GCI brake rotors in order to refurbish the replaced GCI brake rotor and to avoid the remelting procedure. The two coating materials are evaluated in terms of their coefficient of friction (CoF), wear, and ultrafine particle emissions, by comparing them with a typical GCI brake rotor. The results show that the CoF of the HVOF disc is higher than those of the GCI and LC discs. Meanwhile, HVOF disc has the lowest wear rate but results in the highest wear rate on the mating brake pad material. The LC disc yields a similar wear rate as the GCI disc. The ultrafine particles from the GCI and LC discs appeared primarily in round, chunky, and flake shapes. The HVOF disc emits unique needle-shaped particles. In the ultrafine particle range, the GCI and HVOF discs generate particles that are primarily below 100 nm in the running-in period and 200 nm in the steady state. Meanwhile, the LC disc emitted particles that are primarily ∼200 nm in the entire test run.

Q: How to convert or equalize Query> to List I have BrandList in my Firebase like this;
How can I convert or equalize this Firebase List to List.
I tried this;
var brandsRef = _firestore.collection("vehicles1").where("Brands");
    List brandsList = brandsRef;

But I got this error "A value of type 'Query<Map<String, dynamic>>' can't be assigned to a variable of type 'List'."

A: First I would suggest to create a model of your class Brand in addition to the jsonSerialization classics:
class Brands {
  Brands({this.brandName});
  List<String> brandName;

  Map<String, dynamic> toMap() {
    return {
      'Brands': brandName,
    };
  }

  factory Brands.fromMap(Map<String, dynamic> map) {
    return Brands(
      brandName: List<String>.from(map['Brands']),
    );
  }

  String toJson() => json.encode(toMap());

  factory Brands.fromJson(String source) => Brands.fromMap(json.decode(source));
}

Then you need to add a few steps to the way you retreive elements:
   var response = _firestore.collection("vehicles1").where("Brands").get();

   final results =
        List<Map<String, dynamic>>.from(response.docs.map((e) => e.data()));
   Brands brands =
        results.map((e) => Brands.fromMap(e)).toList();

A: You need to use the document Id to get the query and then you can get the data which returns a Map.
From that Map, you can supply the key to retrieve the value. In this case, the key is "Brands".
var brandsQuery = await _firestore.collection("vehicles1").doc(document Id).get();
List brandList = brandsQuery.data()["Brands"];

American Airlines Review
Charles Lindbergh once said "Life is like a landscape you live in the midst of it but can describe it only from the vantage point of distance" As the founder of the American Airlines, Mr. Lindbergh really made a majestic thought there. Let us see if his masterpiece goes the distance.
The Eagle's first flight
The American Airlines inaugurated its first flight on April 15, 1926, by the chief pilot of Robertson Aircraft Corporation of Missouri, Mr. Charles Lindbergh. In 1929, Aviation Corporation was formed which later on changed names to American Airways. However in 1934, the airways became American Airlines Inc.
A 53 year old American, Mr. William Douglas Parker, has been the CEO of American Airlines since he was 38 year old. The CEO is known for being good with investments and very pleased by communities of late stockholders, he even impressed the investors and analysts with robust returns and bold attempts and consolidations.
William Douglas Parker
American Airlines information
American Airlines has a total of 9 bases: Charlotte Douglas International Airport, Dallas Fort Worth International Airport, John F. Kennedy International Airport (New York), Los Angeles International Airport, Miami International Airport, O'Hare International Airport (Chicago), Philadelphia International Airport, Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport, Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport. The airlines has a fleet size of 627 for 344 destinations.
The American Airlines ranked 79th this year (2015), at The World's Top 100 Airlines 2015 by Skytrax, from being the 89th last year. The airlines have been receiving consecutive rewards since 2003, one of the recent awards was in 2012. They were named "World's Leading Airline to North America in 2012" by World Travel Awards
AA Services
American Airlines prioritizes the comfort of their passengers. Special assistance is offered to travellers in need of wheelchair, pregnant, or with special diet and allergies.
AAdvantage. This is the airlines frequent flyer program wherein customers are privileged to earn miles while travelling. Customers will be able to use Miles to travel to nearly 1,000 destinations worldwide, upgrades, vacation packages, car rentals, hotel reservations, magazine subscription, into gift cards, get LifeLock identity theft protection and donate to military families. If the customer is already a member they can upgrade their membership to Elite Status, wherein there are designated to three categories; AAdvantage Executive Platinum, AAdvantage Platinum, AAdvantage Gold. To see more about AAdvantage, click here.
The Official website and Mobile app
The American Airlines official website will be initially asking for their customers to choose their country and language and direct them to the home page. The website features allow customers to book a flight either one way or roundtrip, check-in online and check flight status. The bigger portion of the main page flashes different images of their AAdvantage membership benefits, as you scroll down you'll see they also promote the latest packages reachable to their customer's budget. At the bottom right of the page shows a 1 minute and 20 second video on what it's like to fly with American Airlines. The top selection of the main page allows you to view available seats, activities customers might want to try, vacation packages in detail, make cruise reservation, car rentals, check flight schedules and travel information.
The airline has a mobile app ready for their customers to download to their smartphones. This mobile app delivers flight notifications, mobile boarding passes, checks flight status, upgrades list and seat selection.
The American Airlines is getting a good score from their passenger's feedback. One reviewer mentioned, the airlines' aircraft is quiet and comfortable with wonderful seat spacing and a very nice inflight entertainment system. He also mentioned that the crews were exceptionally professional and the food selection was good too. The passenger ended the review with an appreciation of the new interior of Boeing 777-200 as too beautiful, plus the lighting which lifted his mood up. He gave American Airlines a 10/10 rating via Airquality.com
Are they open 24/7? If not what are their hours?
Do they provide TTY (hearing impaired) service?
Do they provide email service?
Do they provide live chat support?

The importance of diversity in children's literature, especially for young children of color.
Recently book-Twitter was gloriously taken over by the hashtag #1000blackgirlbooks, due to the diligence of a remarkable 11-year old named Marley Dias. Tired of her 6th grade curriculum full of "books about white boys and their dogs," Dias decided to start a book drive to collect books featuring protagonists she could look up to—in her words, "strong, black girls!" The books will be donated at a book festival on February 13th, to a library in an impoverished area of Jamaica, where Dias's mother, founder of GrassROOTS Community Foundation, is from.
Diversity is more than just having one book where a black character is a slave.
Researchers in the 1940s studied the way black preschoolers represented themselves through self-portraits, and concluded that they had been socialized to identify with whiteness rather than blackness.
The power of positive portraits is magnified when the reader is a child and still forming her idea of where she stands in the world. An extensive study of children's literature in education argues that "stories matter…They matter because in the advancement of a literary tradition, African-Americans gain a vehicle through which they can participate more fully in their textual and, thus, public representation." Researchers examining how African Americans are represented in children's literature find many cultural inaccuracies, along with a pervading presentation of African-American children as something other than children (i.e. white children). This is not a new phenomenon. Researchers in the 1940s studied the way black preschoolers represented themselves through self-portraits, and concluded that they had been socialized to identify with whiteness rather than blackness. This study sparked an interest in identity formation, and the concept of BRI, or Black racial identity. The way children are educated, including what they read, can contribute to a healthier and more positive BRI.
Literature transforms human experience and reflects it back to us, and in that reflection we can see our own lives and experiences as part of the larger human experience. Reading, then, becomes a means of self-affirmation, and readers often seek their mirrors in books.
But it seems like Marley already knew that.
Inspired by the Gretchen famous line in the film Mean Girls, Chi Luu explores how politicians mobilize language to sway public opinion.


I wasn't able to attend the IPP in Japan last year however given that I was getting married, I had a great excuse, and I'm not complaining about my choice of location. It did mean however that I missed out on a number of new puzzles from the IPP. Fortunately, I have a few friends who did go, and I was able to borrow some of the Japan Puzzles. Peppermint is a 3D printed puzzle designed by Scott Elliot for the Puzzle Exchange, and was digitally manufactured in colorful ABS by Bradley Rigdon at PrintTo3D according to Scott.
Peppermint. An exchange puzzle from Scott Elliot.
You can read all about the design process for the puzzle over on Scott's blog here if you're interested. I certainly recommend it as it really shows the work that goes into refining a puzzle design. The finished puzzle measures 2.25" x 1.75", and seems like a fairly large puzzle in your hands.
The puzzle consists of four pieces, which combine together into two linked sub assemblies. The outer shell doesn't move, while the sphere in the centre is free to rotate around. If you're familiar with the Cast Marble from Hanayama, then you'll have a fair idea of what's going on here. The difference is that you can only see the sphere from one side of the puzzle. On the other side is a closed dome that hides the sphere away.
Peppermint. Taking the pieces apart.
Once you've found the right alignment of all the pieces, it will rotate apart smoothly, before coming apart into four separate pieces. Putting it back together is a simple case of reversing the process. there is a little bit of thought required to align the pieces correctly, but nothing that will stump you for long.
Peppermint. Showing off the sub assemblies.
Overall it's a fun puzzle and it looks great in the vibrant colours of the ABS plastic. I'm seeing more and more puzzles being produced by 3D printers, and the quality is really impressive. For rapid prototyping, and the ability to play with designs just hours after they are conceived is incredible. I don't see it replacing the feel and look of natural wood, but I can't deny that it's an amazing technology.

This downtown Austin hotel is a block from the 6th Street entertainment district. The Texas State Capitol is six blocks away.
Omni Austin Hotel has a rooftop terrace, an outdoor pool, and a fitness facility. This 4.0-star Austin property features a hair salon, and beauty services. Business amenities include a 24-hour business center, wireless Internet access (surcharge), 20,000 square feet of meeting space, and audio-visual equipment. Omni Austin Hotel has a restaurant, a bar/lounge, and a coffee shop/café. Room service is available during limited hours. Self parking and valet parking are available (surcharge).
Amenities featured in all 392 guestrooms include air conditioning, coffee/tea makers, and minibars. 32-inch flat-panel televisions with premium TV channels, ESPN, and HBO are available in guestrooms. Business-friendly amenities include multi-line phones, wireless Internet access (surcharge), and desks. Bathrooms feature bathrobes and hair dryers. All rooms are nonsmoking.
Enjoyed the experience. Room wasn't ready when I arrived, but free drink tickets and friendly bar staff picked up the slack. Front desk staff very knowledgeable. Food was ok.
Somebody had tightly wrapped a plastic bag around the smoke detector, I told the desk and they had it removed and thanked me for the info. Our shower had a few hiccups, it would get cool and then the water would stop coming out for a period and then it would start up again. Very strange. The toilet made very strange sounds, and the pipes would howl at times, occasionally when the neighbor was taking a shower. The breakfast and happy hour were pleasant events. Staff was courteous and helpful. The wind never stopped blowing.
This is a nice hotel with good location. For the price we were slightly disappointed. The roof top has a great view but the pool is pretty small. Best thing is the rooms were quiet, and the staff very friendly.
I would never stay in this hotel again. It's extremely overpriced. The rooms are very clean but outdated. For ~$500 a night, nothing is included. I had to be $15 EXTRA per day for 'premium' internet in my room, that didn't even work half the time. No food is included. The shower had very little water pressure and the tub filled up to my ankles during each 10 minute shower. Sometimes you'll stand and wait for the elevator for 5 minutes (not an exaggeration, actually timed it), and yet it's impossible to take the stairs without setting off an emergency exit alarm. This stay was for a business trip and I spoke with people staying at some of the other hotels just a block or so away and they paid hundreds less per night, had breakfast included, a free shuttle from the airport, and rooms that were just as clean and sometimes even more current. All of the hotels are located in downtown Austin, so the Omni is not even in a better location. It looks very fancy from the lobby, but this does not translate to the rooms or the service.

It's human nature to hold on to stuff. However, this leads to a cluttered and messy household. If you don't know where to start when clearing clutter, here are few things to get rid of first.
Often, people will hold onto old cell phones that they no longer use. This may be because people don't want to take the time to wipe the phones clean. Sometimes, people hold onto old phones with the hope that they could be worth something one day. However, these phones are just taking up space. Clear out any phones that don't work. You can recycle them or sell the parts to a local repair shop.
Just like phones, people hold onto chargers and cords. These can be from anything, from old phones, tablets, computers, and so on that have been accumulating for years. You can recycle the cords or donate them to someone who can use them.
Unless you are a professional photographer, you probably don't have any need for old, bulky cameras. Typically, the reason a person holds onto a camera is for the pictures or memories that are associated with it. Instead of holding onto the camera, make a digital or physical photo album, clear out the photos and recycle the camera.
One of the most often kept items, and one that turns into clutter easily is magazines or newspapers. When they come every month, week, or day, it can be hard to keep up with what you want to read and they often pile up. It can be especially difficult getting rid of print publications that don't exist anymore. Go through your stacks, keep any magazine or clipping that holds nostalgic value, and recycle the rest. If you really don't want to part with one, consider scanning it to create a digital copy before recycling it.
Clothes are another thing that we seem to hold on to frequently. Whether you get new clothes because of the season or because you grew out of them, there seems to be a constant stream of clothes coming into the home. The only problem is that a lot of the time, there isn't a stream of clothes coming out of the home. Go through your closet and separate out things that don't fit anymore or that you simply don't wear anymore. Any high-end clothing that is in good condition can be sold at a consignment shop, on social media, or through an app. Consider donating the rest of the items to a local shelter or youth home.
Summer is officially here and its time to enjoy endless sun. Enjoy the warm weather with family and friends. Here are some tips to get ready for the summer season.
Invest in some yard work. Spruce up your greenery and garden. Cut the grass and trim any untamed bushes and shrubs. Remove any unwanted weeds. Take care of any brown or yellow spots throughout your yard by planting new grass. Plant new flowers to brighten your backyard.
After a long winter, it is important to give your deck/patio a good clean. Wipe down furniture and the surface of the deck. Use restoring paint to revitalize worn down wood. Additionally, keep an eye out for any mold or mildew that has collected during the off season.
Wipe down the exterior, grates, and cook box of the grill. Furthermore, turn your grill on and check the ignition system for future usages.
Get creative with light when it gets dark. Hang trendy string lights or place candles inside mason jars for a cozy and intimate look. Light up the walkways and patio with outdoor torches.
Are you unable to open your closet doors without clothes spilling out? Keeping a closet organized may seem like an impossible task. Here are some steps to help eliminate clutter in your closet.
While it may seem extreme to remove everything from your closet, it is essential for a good clean. Wipe down the baseboards and vacuum any dust. Removing all your clothes may even result in rediscovering any lost items.
Before putting your clothes back into your closet, take time to organize the space. Create easily accessible areas for any favorite clothing. Furthermore, arrange your closet based on weather. During colder months, clothing such as sweaters and jackets should be easily available. Switch it up for warmer months. Transition shorts and t-shirts to the front of your closet in preparation for warmer weather.
Do you have piles of bills, receipts, medical documents, and work papers consuming your home office, making it extremely hard to get any actual work done? One of the biggest difficulties that people have when working from home is keeping their home and work life separate.
The first step in separating these two parts of your life is decluttering. This can be a daunting process, but it's necessary. Sift through all of your documents and separate them into categories, first broadly into work and non-work, and then more specifically depending on what each paper deals with. During this process, you will also be able to determine what papers are important and will be able to discard what you no longer need. After you have made specific categories for the papers that are cluttering your desk, you can chose the best organizational tactic for you. You may want to organize these papers by using just a couple folders or an accordion folder if there are not that many categories. If you have a lot of documents, a filling cabinet may be your best bet.
It is important to not only keep the surface of your desk clean, but also organize the inside of your desk. Having a place for all of your miscellaneous office supplies helps keep clutter at bay. Drawer organizers are the perfect way to keep your work supplies from getting messy and disorganized. Designating a specific section for pens, sticky notes, paperclips, highlighters, butterfly clips, etc. in each segment of the organizer helps keep clutter off your desk and out of your mind.
Another great way to keep your work space at home from becoming cluttered it to utilize your wall space. Hanging bulletin boards and white boards on the walls of your home office helps in keeping documents and ideas organized while allowing for more work space on your desk. This is the perfect way to keep important, relevant papers that you need on your desk readily available while allowing yourself to have room to work.
In today's day and age it is almost impossible to work without technology, and working from home is out of the question without technology. Many people use computers, smart phones, tablets, and so much more throughout their daily work life. Each device requires a way of charging and these chargers can be another source of clutter to your work place. Although it does not seem like much, by designating a specific area for these charging cords your work space will become a lot less overwhelming. A specific drawer or basket for these cords would work just fine.
Do you find yourself feeling extremely stressed when you walk into your child's playroom? Are you constantly picking up small toys and cleaning up messes so much that it almost feels like a full time job? You are definitely not alone: keeping a tidy playroom is a daily struggle for most if not all parents.
Cleaning up after a large arts and craft project can be super stressful for parents. Having a place for all arts and crafts supplies is the first step towards reducing this stress. An inexpensive way to store all your art supplies is to recycle and repurpose old cans. Give each can a specific label . A great craft to do with your child when you first use these cans to decorate them and label them in creative ways.
Are you always throwing away those empty plastic packages of baby wipes? Before you toss out that next container, listen to some of these ideas. Baby wipe containers can be utilized as the perfect storage unit in your child's playroom. They are great for separating different toys and the lids are perfect for keeping things from falling out. Decorating and labeling the containers not only brightens the playroom, but also helps your child understand that each toy has a place.
Having a place for your children's books is essential to maintaining an organized playroom. By placing hanging baskets on the walls, your child is able to easily place the books back after using them. It is important to have these baskets located lower on the wall so that your child is able to reach them and put them back neatly. Also, by only having two or three baskets you are able to declutter and throw away some of those books that your child has not read in years. It is also a good idea to keep rotating the books in and out of the baskets so that there is not an overflow of books that are unable to fit. Chicken wire baskets are great for this! They can be purchased for under $10 at Walmart and are durable enough to last a while.
Do you find yourself constantly stepping on those sharp, tiny matchbox cars cluttering your playroom? An innovative way to organize these bothersome trinkets is a magnetic strip. Instead of just throwing these small cars in bins that take up a lot of room, place a magnetic strip on your wall. This method gives every car a place to be stored while also brightening up the room. Clean up with magnetic strips is cheap, painless, and easy.
Children love to collect countless stuffed animals from stores, carnivals, and arcades. Although these soft toys can really clutter a room, you do not necessarily need to throw them all away or spend a lot of money on storage. Instead, you can buy an inexpensive wired laundry basket, which is large enough to fit a good amount of stuffed animals. Tell your child that they are able to keep all the stuffed animals that fit in the bin, but must get rid of the rest. This teaches them an important lesson in hanging onto clutter all while keeping the room tidy for your sake.
Board games are a great way to keep your child busy for an extended period of time and teach them valuable skills, but somehow they always seem to lose parts and are often carelessly thrown into a closet after playing. A great tool to help with the organization of board games is a hanging closet organizer, usually used for clothing. These organizers can be found at stores like Target for $10-$15. They allow for each board game to have its own place, making clean-up a lot easier.
Cleaning your home can be a tedious and overwhelming task, especially if your home is particularly large or you haven't cleaned in a while.
Cleaning your house will go much faster if you plan out when and where to start. Making a checklist, for example, can speed things along greatly and keep you on task. Checking items off of your list can also be very rewarding. Another idea is to break your house up into sections that can be cleaned together or with the same tool. Consider washing all of your hardwood or tile floors at once, or dusting all furniture on the first floor before moving on to the second. "Chunking" your house can also be coupled with making a checklist.
Keeping important cleaning items together can simplify your cleaning process and make it easier for you to get started. Having everything in one closet or even one basket can save you from running around the house in search of every item you need to start cleaning. Another idea is to go as portable as possible. When buying cleaning supplies, look for items and tools that can all fit in one carrying case. This will simplify the storage of your supplies and give yourself just one thing to grab before you clean.
When cleaning, its understandable to resist throwing something away for fear that you may need it someday. Although complete certainty is unrealistic, you can make reasonable judgements about whether or not you will actually use something in the future. Have you used it regularly in the past 3 months? Is it something used seasonally? Did you forget you had it until just now? Asking yourself questions like these will help you decide whether to save the item or throw it away. Items of personal significance are a little different, and the value of these items is much more subjective. Reducing clutter is important, but you don't have to throw away old family photos or your grandmother's necklace in order to do so.
Cleaning can be especially overwhelming if it's not something you do regularly. Allowing clutter and grime to build up over a long period of time just makes it harder to clean your house in one day or one weekend. If you have let things accumulate in the past, consider sticking to a regular maintenance schedule (after having cleaned your house entirely, of course). Although it may feel like a burden at first, sticking to a schedule can reduce the total amount of time you spend on cleaning in the long run and overall make your cleaning more effective.
Also, recycle! Use recycling as an outlet for unwanted clutter as opposed to just throwing it away. Learn more about recycling here.
Composting is a great way to occupy your time and improve your property, all while reducing your impact on the environment.
A good compost pile is composed of many layers. These layers are typically categorized as either "brown" or "green." Brown layers include items such as leaves, dead flowers, newspapers, and cardboard that are rich in carbon. Conversely, green layers include items high in nitrogen content like vegetable scraps, fruit peels, and grass clippings. Gather the materials you wish to compost and separate them into these two categories. You'll also want to buy some garden soil to mix in with the brown and green materials. Designate an area in your backyard for your new compost pile that is at least 3 feet long by 3 feet wide. If you want to get really serious, consider buying a metal compost bin or even using an old trash can to hold your compost. Otherwise, starting it right on the ground is fine.
First, lay down a thick layer of brown materials at the compost site. Then, cover this first layer with a coating of green material about 6 inches thick. Spread a thin layer of garden soil over the green layer, making sure to cover the entire area. Top this off with another brown layer and then add water to moisten it. It is best to repeat this process until your pile is about 4 feet high. After you've built your compost pile, the next job is to maintain it. The decomposition process is greatly aided by the presence of oxygen, and so it is important to turn your compost pile with a shovel or pitchfork every 2-3 weeks. This will expose the entirety of the pile to oxygen and speed along the decomposition process. When adding new material to your compost, simply mix it into the whole pile. There is no more need for layering at this point.
You can use your compost in a variety of ways, from enriching the soil in your garden to keeping your lawn fresh and healthy. You can even just tend to your compost pile as-is, and use it to dispose of your food waste. Having a compost pile is a fun and easy way to cut costs on gardening supplies and keep your food scraps out of a landfill.
Don't have a backyard? You can still compost even without a backyard. One preferred method is vermicomposting, or "worm" composting. This method is fast and incredibly portable, using a well-ventilated bin and the decomposing abilities of worms to get the job done. If you don't want to compost inside your house, consider looking into compost pick-up services in your area. Your neighborhood may offer this service, but if not, there are plenty of privately-owned services as well.

Job candidates lose out through lack of soft skills, say most business leaders.
As millions of young people await their exam results and prepare to enter the world of work, new research from British Gas has highlighted that soft skills and personality are top attributes the majority of business leaders look for when hiring.
More than half of bosses surveyed look for volunteering experience as evidence of these skills and almost all (94%) say a business can get great results from employees who have volunteered. More than half of employers say they have turned down candidates because they lacked soft skills and personality.
Employers are also scouring the internet to get clues on a candidate's social skills. More than a third (34%) say they look at a candidate's social media profile to gauge their personality before meeting them in person. Despite this, four in ten young people admit their social profile online is not 'potential employer-ready'.
Almost two-thirds of 16-25 year-olds think businesses only care about academic grades when hiring. However nine in ten employers say candidates should focus on soft skills just as much as their grades.
Despite soft skills and volunteering being top priorities for employers, four in ten young people have never volunteered, and almost a quarter do not believe that it will help them get a job. More than a third (34%) admit to being too busy concentrating on exams to make time for volunteering.
Claire Miles, Managing Director for Customer Operations at British Gas commented: "Whilst good exam results can boost opportunities for young people, our survey highlights that employers are also looking for evidence of soft skills and personality before making a final decision on whom to hire.


Nintendo is diving head first into the free-to-play casual space with an announcement Wednesday morning that it is releasing a Pokémon-themed puzzle game similar to Candy Crush Saga for the 3DS in February.
Pokémon Shuffle is a match-three puzzle game, a style that's as old as time. Matching three similar Pokémon on the game board will deal damage to a wild Pokémon. Each puzzle must be completed in a limited number of moves, and the player has lives that take time to refill, mechanics made popular by Candy Crush Saga.
Players' lives can be refilled more quickly by an eShop purchase.
This isn't Nintendo's first foray into free-to-play gaming; the company has released a few games on its eShop in the last couple of years with in-app purchases, but it's certainly interesting to see the company making more of an effort to explore other revenue models.
Nintendo didn't specify an exact North American release date for Pokémon Shuffle.
The Japanese free-to-play smash hit Puzzle and Dragons is also being converted to a 3DS game, though probably not for free. Puzzle and Dragons Z, another match-three puzzler with RPG elements, is being released as a bundle with a Super Mario Edition in North America in May for an unknown price.
Puzzle and Dragons: Super Mario Edition brings the familiar Mario universe into the game, allowing players to fight monsters as Mario, Luigi, Toad or even villains like the Goombas.
Nintendo also announced a new version of the 3DS for America — the New 3DS XL — in Wednesday's press conference.

Is The KMT All Washed Up?
By Matthew Forney | Yunlin Monday, Apr. 12, 2004
A few days after losing Taiwan's presidential election, defeated candidate Lien Chan convened leaders of his Kuomintang (KMT) party to figure out what had gone wrong. He demanded details about the assassination attempt that won a sympathy vote for incumbent Chen Shui-bian and called for an analysis of the party's options for requesting a recount. But most of all, he wanted to know why one of Taiwan's poorest counties, which had never failed to vote KMT, had turned against the party. The defectors of Yunlin helped Chen to his paper-thin victory margin and "stripped me of everything, even my underwear," said...
