Brandywine Battlefield
Brandywine Battlefield Historic Site is a historical park that was operated by the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission, on {convert|50|acre|m2}, near Chadds Ford, Delaware County, Pennsylvania in the United States. It is part of the site of the Battle of Brandywine fought on September 11, 1777, during the American Revolution. The battle was a major victory for the British and enabled them to capture the city of Philadelphia. Brandywine Battlefield Park became a Pennsylvania State Park in 1949 and a National Historic Landmark in 1961.
To the north, another part of the battlefield is maintained by Birmingham Township, Chester County, Pennsylvania as "Battlefield of the Brandywine Park," or "Sandy Hollow Heritage Park." Much of the afternoon's fighting took place between Birmingham Friends Meetinghouse and Dilworthtown.
On August 14, 2009, the state closed the battlefield and three other PHMC museums indefinitely due to a lack of funding as part of an ongoing budget crisis. The historic site opened again after 11 days, operating under an interim agreement between the PHMC and Chadds Ford Township with the Brandywine Battlefield Associates, or "Friends of Brandywine Battlefield" who operate the site with limited staff and volunteers until a final agreement is reached.
==Geography==
Brandywine Battlefield Park is about a half-mile east of Brandywine Creek in southeastern Pennsylvania. Its proximity to Philadelphia led directly to the land being the location of a major battle of the American Revolution. The creek itself was a major military obstacle during the 1770s. Brandywine Creek served as a "moat" that blocked British access to the Schuylkill River and the Continental Congress in Philadelphia. The British Army sought to seize control of Philadelphia, drive the Congress out of the city and thereby bring an end to the war. The area was also a crossroads of the Thirteen Colonies. Control of the roads was crucial to the supply of both the British and Continental Armies.
==Battle==
General George Washington moved his troops to the Chadds Ford area to control the high ground, prevent the British Army under the command of General Howe from taking Philadelphia and to avoid being trapped between the British Army on land and the Royal Navy which was positioned on the Delaware River in September 1777. The British had landed at the head of Maryland's Elk River, on the northern end of the Chesapeake Bay near present day Elkton, approximately 40–50 miles (60–80 km) southwest of Philadelphia and were marching towards Philadelphia.
The British grouped forces at nearby Kennett Square. Howe had no intention of mounting a full scale attack against the prepared American defenses. He instead employed a flanking maneuver similar to those used in the Battle of Long Island. A portion of the army, about 5,000 men under the command of Wilhelm von Knyphausen, were to advance to meet Washington's troops at Chadds Ford, while the remainder, under the command of Lord Charles Cornwallis, were to march north to Jefferis' Ford, several miles to the north, which Washington had overlooked, and then march south to flank the American forces.
At this point, Washington and Greene arrived with reinforcements to try to hold off the British, who now occupied Meeting House Hill. The remains of Sullivan's men held off the pursuing British for nearly an hour but were eventually forced to retreat. The Americans were also forced to leave behind most of their cannon on Meeting House Hill because most of the artillery horses were killed.
Knyphausen, on the east bank of Brandywine Creek, launched an attack against the weakened American center across Chadds Ford, breaking through and Wayne's division and forcing him to retreat and leave behind most of his cannons. Armstrong's militia, never engaged in the combat, also decided to retreat from their positions. Further north, Greene sent Colonel Weedon's troops to cover the road just outside the town of Dilworth to hold off the British long enough for the rest of the Continental Army to retreat. Darkness brought the British pursuit to a standstill, which then left Weedon's force to retreat. The defeated Americans were forced to retreat to Chester where most of them arrived at midnight, with some stragglers arriving until morning.
The battle cost the British about 89 killed and 487 wounded, while they claimed to have killed 200 Colonials, wounded 750 more, and captured over 400 as well as destroying or capturing 11 of the American artillery guns.
Although Howe had defeated the American army, the unexpected resistance he had met prevented him from destroying it completely. The American morale had not been destroyed; despite losing the battle, the Americans had good spirits hoping to fight the British again another day. But neither commander in the battle had proven themselves. Washington had committed a serious error in leaving his right flank wide open and nearly brought on destruction if it had not been for Sullivan, Sterling, and Stephen's divisions that fought for time. Howe had waited too long to attack the American right flank, showing again his lack of killer instincts because he was still afraid of sustaining heavy casualties since the costly victory at the Battle of Bunker Hill two years earlier, and thus allowed most of the American army to escape.
British and American forces maneuvered around each other for the next several days with only minor encounters such as the Paoli Massacre on the night of September 20-21.
The Continental Congress abandoned Philadelphia, first to Lancaster, Pennsylvania for one day and then to York, Pennsylvania. Military supplies were moved out of the city to Reading, Pennsylvania. On September 26, 1777, British forces marched into Philadelphia unopposed.
==Park facilities==
Brandywine Battlefield Park was the site of a thriving farming community until just before the battle. Quaker farmers were getting ready to harvest their crops, plant winter wheat, slaughter beef cattle, hogs, shear their sheep and sell their yearling colts and fillies. The pacifist Quakers were thrust into the center of the battle and much of their farmland, livestock, and crops were destroyed.
The American officers seized their farmhouses before the battle and the victorious British officers occupied the Quaker's homes after the battle. These homes have been restored to their 1777 appearance and are open to the public. The Benjamin Ring House is believed to have been used as headquarters by George Washington before the battle. A collection of Quaker style furniture is on display at the house with historical information about the battle and Washington's stay at the house. The Gideon Gilpin Farmhouse is on the opposite side of the park. It too has been restored and furnished with vintage Quaker furniture. It served at the base of operations for Marquis de Lafayette before and during the battle.
Reenactors portray Hessian mercenaries, Quaker farmers, and British and Continental soldiers during many special events held at the park during the year. Staff and volunteers provided daily guided tours of the park and battlefield. They also guide hands on activities, give speeches, sponsor seminars, and host open houses. Much of the battlefield is preserved but encroaching suburban sprawl is threatening the park. The park is protected by its status as a National Historic Landmark District, designated as such by the United States Congress in 1997, 220 years after the Battle of Brandywine.
==Current affairs==
The Gideon Gilpin Farmhouse used by Lafayette has been restored to its 1770s appearance. The Benjamin Ring House used by General George Washington, was used on and off until the 1930s, when young local residents accidentally set off a fire that destroyed the home. In the 1950s, a new home was built to reflect the time period of the 1770s.

Happy Bhag Jayegi Movie Review
The film is only mildly diverting when it isn't overly desultory
Saibal Chatterjee | August 19, 2016 09:37 IST
Diana Penty, Abhay Deol, Jimmy Shergill, Ali Fazal, Momal Sheikh
Mudassar Aziz
SPOILERS AHEAD
A wedding scuttled, a suitor snubbed and a bride on the run are time-tested ingredients of a comic romp. Happy Bhag Jayegi has all this and more and yet is only mildly diverting when it isn't overly desultory.
An Amritsar lass in love with a college mate of hers runs away from her engagement ceremony soon after the smarmy corporator she is due to marry does a full-on Sunny Deol dance of joy.
She jumps into the wrong getaway truck and ends up in Pakistan. It sets off a chain of events that sees four Indians, including the girl's clueless dad, going round in circles in the city of Lahore.
The son of a Pakistani politician, his befuddled fiancee, and a garrulous cop join the riotous rigmarole and make matters worse.
Happy Bhag Jayegi falls short of being a side-splitting laugh riot because writer-director Mudassar Aziz does not make happy use of the narrative pieces available to him consistently enough to be able to deliver an outright winner.
But Happy Bhag Jayegi, which delivers harmless fun for the most part in spite of the patchy screenplay, is marked by elements that set it apart from run-of-the-mill Bollywood rom-coms.
For one, a Bollywood comedy in which most of the action unfolds in Lahore is a rarity indeed.
That apart, the two women in the middle of the muddle - one Indian, the other Pakistani - hold their own as the men around them repeatedly get their knickers into a twist.
The Indian girl is the Happy of the title - Harpreet Kaur (Diana Penty) - who, despite the mounting troubles, does not regret her misadventures one bit. She is always intent on living up to her name.
The Pakistani lady is Zia Rahmani (Momal Sheikh), tough-nut daughter of a Lahore business tycoon. She gives no quarters to her would-be husband and expects none.
The two men opposite them, on the other hand, are confused, if well-meaning, blokes.
Bilal Ahmed (Abhay Deol) never tires of ruing his failure to follow his heart, blaming his father for yanking him away from cricket and pushing him into politics.
Gurpreet 'Guddu' Singh (Ali Fazal), who is left guessing over his fate after Happy jumps out her bedroom window, is equally unsure of whether he has it in him to win the girl he loves.
Guddu is supposed to be an aspiring musician but he is never seen making music. "Music mein magic hota hai," Bilal says at one point as he hatches a plan to reunite Happy with Guddu.
The magic never materializes because the music on offer is pretty pedestrian.
The villain of Happy Bhag Jayegi is Daman Singh Bagga (Jimmy Sheirgill), a small-time Amritsar politician with big-time ambitions. This guy is determined to marry Happy but is thwarted at every step.
But he isn't a gun-toting, expletive-hurling bad guy. It is with dazed, deadpan resignation that he reacts to the grave provocations he is subjected to.
The lover boy who gives the good-natured goon a run for his money is no obsessed Romeo either. Guddu allows Happy a long rope.
All through film, the dialogue writer unsurprisingly pokes fun at Pakistan but the jibes are never overtly spiteful.
There isn't much in Happy Bhag Jayegi by way of Pak-bashing that could unduly vex filmgoers across the border.
Happy Bhag Jayegi whips up a steady rhythm in the first half only to lose its way a bit in the second.
The film goes all over the place once Bagga decides to follow Happy to Lahore and enlists the support of a local gang of criminals.
If Happy Bhag Jayegi does not get on one's nerves like such half-baked attempts at hilarity tend to do, it is because it remains completely inoffensive.
It seeks to provide clean entertainment. The language is antiseptic, the women aren't objectified, and the men aren't lousy louts even when their actions aren't particularly edifying. These are small mercies that add up to a lot.
Pakistanis might take umbrage to the way the Lahore cops are portrayed as a bumbling bunch. But, then, when doesn't Hindi cinema give policemen in general the short shrift?
And then there is that grand revelation when man in uniform Usman Afridi (Piyush Mishra) refuses to travel to India because he does not want to consume 'India ka namak'.
Bilal reminds him that Pakistan imports all its salt from India. "Namak toh hum India kaa hi khate hain," he concludes.
Abhay Deol, in his first release in two-and-a-half years, is the anchor around which Happy Bhag Jayegi pivots. He does not falter.
Ali Fazal's role is rather sketchily written, but he is perfectly in tune with the unsteady state of the mind of the character he plays.
Diana Penty, in only her second Bollywood outing, tries hard to pass off an earthy, sprightly Punjabi girl. Hers is an uneven performance. She doesn't exactly run away with the film.
Momal Sheikh, in her first big screen release, is a welcome addition to the growing tribe of Pakistani actresses trying their luck in Mumbai films.
While Jimmy Sheirgill is treated rather shabbily by the script, Piyush Mishra gets the best lines. The latter revels in the opportunity and provides the film's brighter moments.
Happy Bhag Jayegi isn't the kind of film that will have audiences rolling in the aisles. But it might occasionally induce faint smiles on some faces.

Fiona Rae
26 Aug — 25 Nov 2017 at the Buchmann Galerie in Lugano, Switzerland
Fiona Rae. Courtesy of Buchmann Galerie Lugano
We are delighted to present an exhibition by British painter Fiona Rae (*1963 in Hong Kong, lives in London), for the first time on show at Buchmann Lugano.
The paintings in this exhibition are part of the most recent group of works by Fiona Rae, begun in 2014 with a number of charcoal drawings. The initial paintings from this series consequently started out as greyscale works, completely omitting colour and concentrating solely on the calligraphic flow of the brush. The largest format is limited to a size that makes it possible for the painter to maintain control over the entire canvas from a single standpoint; she is able to cover the whole canvas with one sweep of a brush. The intense calligraphic lines radiate with the same force from the canvas as we find in the drawings. They seem spontaneous and yet at the same time placed with discipline and precision.
The large work Figure 2a is the first painting in the series to reintroduce colour in the foreground while keeping the backdrop in greyscale. This emphasizes the colour and creates a new concentration and dynamism in the constellation of figure and ground, surface and line. Further development of this approach can be seen in the smaller format paintings Figment 2u, Figment 3b and Figment 3c. As regards the titles for the new paintings, Rae uses a taxonomic system: Figure 1a, Figure 1b, etc. In this way she creates a distance between the painting and the title, enabling the viewer to concentrate on contemplating the pure painting. Still, Fiona Rae's signature remains clearly recognizable in these new works, evidence of the many visual codes and tropes she has developed and made her own over the years.
These new paintings make clear what Fiona Rae means when she says: "I see these paintings as suggesting the presence of a figure, whilst simultaneously insisting on its absence; the paintings remain abstract. I want the urgency of paint marks and gestures made only by the hand; the need to make a mark that goes back thousands of years."

Asian shares mixed after China reports slowing growth
BANGKOK (AP) — Shares were mixed in Asia on Monday after China reported that its economy expanded at an 8.1% annual pace in 2021, though growth slowed to half that level in the last quarter. Tokyo, Shanghai and Sydney rose, while Hong Kong and Seoul declined. The weakness in China's economy toward the end of 2021 is prompting suggestions Beijing should intervene to prop up growth with interest rate cuts or by injecting money into the economy through public works spending. Shortly before the grow

Nationals' slugger Bryce Harper destroys San Diego
Washington Nationals' slugger Bryce Harper finished the series in Petco Park 8 for 13 with a triple, two home runs, six RBIs and six walks in four games. The Nationals took 3 of 4 from the San Diego Padres as Harper converted more doubters...
By Patrick Reddington@federalbaseball May 17, 2015, 11:59pm EDT
Share All sharing options for: Nationals' slugger Bryce Harper destroys San Diego
Jake Roth-USA TODAY Sports
With a 3 for 4 finale in San Diego's Petco Park, in which he walked, hit an RBI single, triple and opposite field home run, Washington Nationals' slugger Bryce Harper finished the four-game set with the San Diego Padres 8 for 13 with a triple, two home runs, six RBIs and six walks.
That's right, in 19 plate appearances, [checks math] Harper reached base 14 times.
"He's taking a walk when it's offered to him and when he gets guys in scoring position, he's aggressive and he's waiting for a good pitch to hit..." -Matt Williams on Bryce Harper's success this season
His home run in the series finale was his 14th of the season, topping his 2014 total over 395 PAs in the first 170 this season. He ended the series in Petco Park with a .338/.476/.729 line on the year, eight doubles, a triple, 36 runs scored, 36 walks and 39 Ks in 39 games.
Harper currently leads the National League in home runs, walks, on-base percentage, and slugging percentage, just to name a few categories he currently tops.
About the only thing he didn't do, as the Nationals took three of four from the Padres, was hit for the cycle. But he tried.
In his final at bat on Sunday, Harper was a double away when he grounded out to first base to end the inning.
"You try to have a good AB and just try to put the ball in play and try to get on base," Harper told reporters after the Nats' 10-5 win.
"That's all I wanted to do."
But yes, he was aware that he was a two-base hit away.
"Of course you try to get that double, because that's a lot of fun, and you want to share that with your team and with the Nationals' organization, of course, but just happy we got the 'W' today and keep this going, hopefully, this week."
Washington Post writer James Wagner quoted Padres' skipper Bud Black on Twitter talking about just how difficult it was to face Harper right now:
"There's no doubt he's swinging it as well as anybody in baseball," Black said. "It's awful tough. You try to do the best you can without laying one in there. Right now, he's seeing the ball so well that there's no weakness. You try to get a spot, and if you get there he seems to take it or foul it off. He's really, really swinging the [bat] well. He was on base a ton this series. He's in a really good spot right now."
"I think he's just playing and he's understanding the strike zone," Matt Williams said.
"He's taking a walk when it's offered to him and when he gets guys in scoring position, he's aggressive and he's waiting for a good pitch to hit and that's the difference for any hitter, but somebody that's got his ability it makes a huge difference."
"It just gives opportunity to the guys around him," Williams said when asked about the run Harper is on this season.
"Granted, he hit one over the fence today, he hit a triple today, but it also gives opportunity to [Ryan Zimmerman] and to Wilson [Ramos] if he's on base.

"That's what we want to be as a team. We want to have guys on the basepaths and have opportunities and he's providing us that when he doesn't hit it over the fence."
"It's due to our lineup," Harper said, pointing to his teammates as one of the reasons for his success.
"Having [Yunel] Escobar in front me, having Zim behind me, being able to go about my business every day the right way and stay in the lineup.
"That's what I want to do. I want to stay in the lineup. I want to have some fun and like I've been saying, we're such a great family, we're such a great team and it all starts from the top. So, we had a lot of fun today."
It's fun to watch too. Fun for everyone. Except opposing pitchers probably...

Tour of duty: Ambulance making rounds in DFW
Posted on 28 April 2016 by admin
The Magen David Adom ambulance was dedicated by Susan and Allyn Kramer in Dallas on April 18. They are pictured with their family along with Cari Immerman, Midwest regional director of American Friends of Magen David Adom; Ori Shaham, head of the Israel logistics department of Magen David Adom and Temple Emanu-El Rabbi David Stern.
By Ben Tinsley
bent@tjpnews.com
DALLAS — The yellow Magen David Adom mobile intensive care unit ambulance that area residents Allyn and Susan Kramer purchased for Israel is quite strong — designed for the severest of trauma situations.
This yellow unit contains advanced equipment and is known commonly as an "emergency room on wheels." It will soon be on its way to Northern Israel.
The Kramers were present at Temple Emanu-El this month as the ambulance they sponsored was brought to the door for the children there to "inspect."
The inner workings and functions of this ambulance were explained Sunday to the school's kindergarten, first and second graders by Cari Immerman, Midwest regional director of American Friends of Magen David Adom; and Ori Shaham, head of the Israel logistics department of Magen David Adom.
The students — especially the younger ones — were very impressed. Their eyes filled with wonder as they learned more.
Rabbi Amy Ross, director of Youth Learning + Engagement, said Sunday that Temple Emanu-El's entire school would cycle through the synagogue at some point that day for the same lessons and "inspection" opportunity.
"Each class is getting a picture with the ambulance — first kindergarten then first and second grade," the rabbi said.
Temple Emanu-El was the first of several stops the ambulance made Sunday and Monday, including the Points for Peace basketball tournament at the Aaron Family JCC, Congregation Beth Torah and area day schools among others.
Back at Temple Emanu-El, Immerman discussed the many functions of the ambulance with the young students.
"Can you guess how many babies get born in an ambulance in Israel?" Immerman asked them.
One of the children could be heard whispering an answer to another student.
A couple of tries at an answer were then made — but the number was too low.
Immerman went ahead and answered the question.
"Every year we deliver or help bring into life about 15,000 babies," she said to the astonishment of the children. "We help lives by helping babies."
Shaham had his own statistic about helping babies be born.
"I took care of about 100 in my career," he told the children, who were equally astonished by his answer.
The Kramers, meanwhile, said they aren't looking for attention. They told the TJP they just want to help save Jewish lives.
"I just woke up one morning and thought this would be a great thing to do," Allyn Kramer said. "The mission is to save lives in Israel, so we are grateful to be able to do that. … We all feel Jews should take care of one another."
His wife agreed.
"Our philosophy, our goal in life is to save Jews," Susan Kramer said "This is the ultimate way to save Jewish lives. … This is a way to show how grateful we are to the people of Israel. We are honored to be a part of this."
Since June 2006, Magen David Adom has been officially recognized by the International Committee of the Red Cross as the national aid society of the state of Israel under the Geneva Conventions, and a member of the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies.
MDA is not government funded and is in great need of new ambulances, major equipment and a new underground blood center. MDA operates Israel's only blood bank and its above ground facility in Ramat Gan is vulnerable to rocket attacks.
According to literature, Magen David Adom must add 100 new ambulances to their fleet to replace those returned from service to meet the needs to Israel's growing population and to expand coverage on the Israel border and to be fully prepared to evacuate injured military personnel.

Nigeria midfielder Ogenyi Onazi has claimed Harry Redknapp attempted to sign him during his managerial career at Premier League giants Tottenham.
Seventy-year-old Redknapp, who managed the Spurs between 2008 and 2012, is English Championship side Birmingham City's current manager.
Onazi, 24, played himself into the spotlight at the Nigeria 2009 FIFA Under-17 World Cup and attracted interest from a slew of clubs in Europe.
However, he settled on a move to Italian Serie A side Lazio in 2011. The Jos-born player later turned into an important player for the Biancocelesti between 2012 and 2014.
The holding midfielder, who swapped Lazio for Turkish club Trabzonspor last year, was denied a chance to join Birmingham, during the summer transfer market after he was denied a work permit to ply his trade in England.
And the South Africa 2013 Africa Cup of Nations winner, who is targeting a move to Birmingham during the next transfer window in January, has revealed Redknapp is very keen to work with him, although he did not give the reason for the Englishman's failure to sign him when he was at the helm at Tottenham.
"I am still in talks with Harry Redknapp," Turkish newspaper Fanatik quoted Onazi as saying on Thursday.
"Harry Redknapp has wanted me since he was at Tottenham. The transfer stalled but we have stayed in contact ever since.
"He wanted me at Tottenham because he believed I was good enough to play in the Premier League.
Onazi has one goal to his name in two appearances for Trabzonspor this season.
The player, whose contract at the Medical Park Arena ends in 2019, is desperate to get his career back on track, and a move to Birmingham could help him retain his Super Eagles' first-team place.
Onazi produced a strong performance in the Eagles' 2018 World Cup qualifying double-header against Cameroon in Uyo and Yaoundé this month. Nigeria won the first leg in Uyo 4-0 and battled to a 1-1 draw against the African champions in Yaounde.
Meanwhile, Trabzonspor manager Ersun Yanal is pleased with Onazi's response after his late introduction in the 3-1 win over Genclerbirligi in their Super Lig fixture on Saturday.

Driving Shelby's new Daytona Coupe
by Peter Valdes-Dapena @peterdrives November 11, 2015: 9:29 AM ET
The historic Shelby Daytona Coupe
Climbing into the cockpit of Shelby American's 50th Anniversary Daytona Coupe is very much like going back in time. Only it's a bit more comfortable.
The steering wheel has a fat leather rim, metal spokes and a metal badge at its center. The dashboard looks like a '60s-era science project with plainly labeled knobs and switches set into a flat black surface. The only clues that this is a modern vehicle and not a 1965 race car are the switches for the air conditioning and power windows.
Then there's price tag.
This car costs about $230,000 with a fiberglass body. With an aluminum body it would cost about $100,000 more. Either way, it's a tiny sliver of the cost of the original car of the original Shelby Daytona Coupe it's based on.
There were only six made back in the mid-1960s. Today, one of those cars is worth about $25 million, according the the Hagerty Price Guide for Collectible Cars.
They were built to win some of the most fiercely competitive races in Europe and America. In those days, Shelby had already been winning races with the well-known Shelby Cobra, a powerful open-topped car. But the Cobra had a major weak point: aerodynamics. With its muscular engine and lightweight body, the Cobra was quick, but on tracks with long straightaways -- where top speed was everything -- the fat-nosed Cobra fell behind.
Shelby engineers created a new body with a chisel-shaped nose that split the air, a smooth roof rather than open cockpit and a concave back that spun air into a controlled swirl behind the car as it passed. The result was an astonishing increase in top speed.
The original Shelby Cobra couldn't reach 160 miles per hour, but early versions of the Daytona Coupe could go over 190. There were other improvements made to the car, as well. In all, it was enough for Shelby to win the World Sportscar Championship, beating Carroll Shelby's hated rival, Ferrari.
Related - Driving the Shelby Cobra in Vegas
Shelby's 50th Anniversary version of the Daytona isn't intended to be a pure recreation of the racecar. Instead, it's meant as a car someone could comfortably drive on a more-or-less regular basis. For one thing, it's roomier than the tight-fitting racecars were. Only 50 will be made.
Clearly, the person who buys a Shelby Daytona Coupe isn't just looking for nice sports car. The same money can buy a Porsche 911 Turbo S, for example. That car provides even better performance is much safer, simpler to drive and even more comfortable.
But the 911 Turbo S lacks one major feature. It's not a Shelby Daytona Coupe. It doesn't look like you just drove off the track at LeMans in 1965. The Porsche is a great car but the Shelby radiates coolness in a way few other cars do. And it's a fun car precisely because it doesn't drive like a modern button-downed sports car. The steering wheel feels a craftsman's tool in the hand and the shifter, angled oddly forward from the transmission tunnel, flips nicely from gear to gear. But. with its long hood, big engine up front and power going to the rear wheels only, it feels as classic as it looks.
The Daytona's big aluminum V8 engine sounded amazing, of course, with a rumble that reverberated in the chest. (The engine is ordered separately from the rest of the car so there are lots of available choices.) In turns, the Daytona felt easy and balanced. Yes, there was no sunroof, Bluetooth or computer screen with turn-by-turn navigation but still, when we got done shooting the video, I made excuses to keep driving a little longer.

DC Universe Online Delayed
2010 looks like its trying its hardest to match last year's end-of-year delays, as Sony Online Entertainment is the latest publisher to push a product back into 2011. DC Universe Online, originally intended for a November 2nd release, has been delayed into sometime in Q1 2011, for both the PC and PS3 versions of the title. The extra time is supposedly needed "to address the community feedback in a meaningful way," and more information on the new release date should be available when the game goes into public beta. All gamers that pre-order the title by November 15th will be receiving access to the beta.

One thought on "DC Universe Online Delayed"
Christoph Vand says:
WoW Cataclysm will do this to MMO's. Far smarter to release a more polished MMO after Cata. Question is, how close will it be to The Old Republic and Guild Wars 2?

Q: Spring cloud contract: get params from previous response in scenario I wrote the scenario in spring cloud contract. On first request my app return token in response and second request should contain this token. Is there any possibility to pass a value from first response to second request?
Now I use in test another implementation of token generator, which returns predefined tokens, but I want to remove it and use real token generator.
Example of scenario:
1_getToken.groovy
org.springframework.cloud.contract.spec.Contract.make {
    description = 'receive token'
    request {
        method 'POST'
        url '/getToken'
        body("""
            {
            }
         """)
        headers {
            header('Content-Type', 'application/json')
        }
    }
    response {
        status 200
        body("""
            {
                "token":"123"
            }
         """)
    }
}

2_addSmth.groovy
org.springframework.cloud.contract.spec.Contract.make {
    description = 'add somethingh'
    request {
        method 'POST'
        url '/addSmth'
        body("""
            {
                "token":"123",
                "value":"something"
            }
         """)
        headers {
            header('Content-Type', 'application/json')
        }
    }
    response {
        status 200
        body("""
            {
            }
         """)
    }
}

i.e.
I want pass parameter "token" from first response to second request. Is it possible?

A: I don't think that it's possible at this point. You should hard code it. If you need very concrete values then most likely your contract tests are too complicated. Or even most likely they are no longer contract tests but you try to use contracts to verify the business behaviour

Wingspread
Fourteen thousand square feet of floor space. A lot of modern tract homes seem to be headed in that direction, but for 1937 this was a bold size for a house. This is Frank Lloyd Wright's "Wingspread," on the outskirts of Racine, Wisconsin. The home he designed for Herbert Johnson of the Johnson Wax Company. The house plans were completed a year after he built their renown cooperate headquarters in central Racine.
It is a "zone" plan. Areas of the house are separate zones, or wings. Wingspread has four wings. One for Master Bedrooms, the second for the children's rooms, a third for guests, the fourth for service and servants.
As floor plan indicates where all four wings join together is called The Great Hall. Wright liked to call it the Wigwam. It is the living room. The tall central roof is punctuated neatly with stacked rows and layers of skylights. Almost like banks of movie set lights. The play of light in a Wright structure is always remarkable.
A massive tall chimney structure divides the Wigwam into four areas. Entrance, living room proper, library, and dining room. The above photo is looking from the library to the dining area.
The Wigwam's towering vertical brick hub contains 5 fireplaces on 4 sides including one for an upper level. In his Autobiography Wright expressed complete satisfaction with the high level of quality and workmanship found in the home's woodwork and furniture. All his design. "(Wingspread) has the best brickwork I have seen in my life, and the materials of construction and the workmanship throughout are everywhere substantial"
This is looking down on the same area shown in the previous two photos. Wright provided views from upper levels to lower ones throughout his designs. It is an element of his unequaled ability to manipulate space and perspectives. Making larger rooms seem more intimate. Making smaller spaces seem vast. The floors are of concrete in four foot squares. Radiant floor heating. The soft gloss is achieved, as you might guess, by a Johnson Wax. One that was specifically developed for this type of floor upon completion of both the Johnson Wax building and residence. Many a Wright client with residences built after this became Johnson Wax customers.
If you've seen more than one Wright structure, then you'll know he loved his fire places. This is the 5th fireplace of the Wigwam, up on the second level. Maybe more appropriate to call it a forest-fire place. Actually the tall log idea didn't work. The logs fall out too easily.
The spiral staircase is a fun and adventurous touch. And for good reason. He had in mind the Johnson children. The spiral staircase leads to a delightful lookout or crow's nest on the roof. Indeed the children did greatly enjoy this feature.
The spiral staircase top flight. Open ribs of the interior staircase enclosure are repeated above the roof. A skin of glass connects the ribs for a weather tight transparent shelter. The tile roof tops and swimming pool below. The Johnson children were traumatized and emotionally distressed at the prospect of moving here. They'd be leaving a lot friends in the city by living out here in the hinterlands of Racine. But alas, private swimming pools were a rarity in 1938–not to mention a Frank Lloyd Wright designed crow's nest. They soon found out all the kids clamored for visits to par-take in the fun this house had to offer. Mr. Johnson was a pilot. He'd buzz the tower, so to speak, in his airplane which excited the children to no end.
Wright referred to this as a belvedere rather than a crows nest. Even with construction of Wingspread well under way, it was a project that was nearly abandoned. And it all had to do with an Oman concerning wings of another breed. Wright talked about it in his autobiography. An old worker freaked out one day. A white dove persistently hovered over the belvedere. "Bad Oman. The lady of the house will never live here." Johnson had remarried in 1936. This house was to be a custom made newlywed's home.
With the house three-fourths finished Mrs. Johnson passed away. Herbert Johnson lost all interest and desire for the project. Said Wright "I, friend now as well as architect, did my best to represent to him what I thought his young wife would have wanted." Wright firmly believed that upon experiencing life within a space he and his wife dreamed and worked on brought Johnson back again. Johnson's son observed years later "I guess I couldn't argue with the fact that the house had a major impact on my father, rehabilitating him to a new life without his young bride."
Wright describes the Master Bedroom wing as a luxurious mezzanine with a continuous balcony. The extreme cantilever is synonymous with Frank Lloyd Wright.
The weathered wood exterior is wide plank cypress. The bricks are from batches also used in the Johnson Wax building. One instance of savings in an otherwise characteristic M.O. of Wright: going over budget. Way over budget. Johnson was quoted as saying: "It started off with Wright working for me. Then we worked as equals. Finally I was working for him."
Those are wild grapevines on all the trellises, pergolas and cantilevered overheads. Wright used landscaping to tone down the sheer volume and mass of the structure.
Pergola and planter detail
Under this pergola yet another massive fireplace for evenings outdoors.
The garden. Note the vine supports. Wright employed the same use of ordinary galvanized pipe painted his "Cherokee Red" for his own home, Taliesin, in Spring Green, also in Wisconsin. Today Wingspread no longer serves as a private residence but is home of the Johnson Foundation which is set up to facilitate conferences. In short Wingspan is a conference center and a living Wright/Johnson Family museum open for tours.
Herbert Johnson later married actress Irene Purcell. When she moved into Wingspread she found herself akin to the new Mrs. De Winter in the story Rebecca. She struggled to fit in at Wingspread just as her fictional counterpart did in the mansion Manderley. And as far as Irene Purcell was concerned, the evil Mrs. Danvers in her story was none other than Frank Lloyd Wright.
After Irene and Herbert Johnson had been married a few years, they sent out an invitation to Wright for a visit. By this time Irene had tried to leave her personal touch on the house. She brought in paintings and redecorated. Wright spent the night on this visit but was up at 4 a.m. undoing all the decorating that had been done. He pulled out furniture and changed paintings.
She wasn't impressed or amused. Not being a part of its creation as the prior Mrs. Johnson had been, Irene never felt altogether comfortable in Wingspread. Nearly all clients of Wright came to know one inescapable reality. You not only lived in a Frank Lloyd Wright house, but you also figuratively and almost literally lived with Frank Lloyd Wright. There are probably dozens of such stories. I once met members of the Bazett family who lived in a Wright House in Hillsborough, California. They were awakened early one Sunday morning. Squeak, squeak, squeak.
There at the window in his low cut wide brim hat and cape was the 80 something year old Frank Lloyd Wright cleaning windows with his white handkerchief. Upon being invited in he didn't miss the opportunity to move a few items of furniture around. He was also known to bring into a house certain objects of art he considered complimentary. A vase or oriental ginger jar perhaps. To swap out items he objected to. Everyone's reaction to Wright's antics varied. But by and large having Wright in your house moving furniture around was considered by most clients like having Mozart sit and play the piano for you. Moments in their lives that were relived time and again in stories proudly told and retold.

What is DNA Evidence?
What are the Ways to Get DNA Evidence?
DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid, is the most critical component of all living creatures' genetic composition. In this article, we will see DNA evidence in humans.
Collection of Evidence-Based on DNA:
Even if they were not engaged in the actual crime, items discovered at a crime scene might be a source of DNA evidence. Because each human's DNA is entirely incident has become a potent weapon in solving potentiation in law enforcement (except for identical twins).
DNA sample
A DNA sample collects deoxyribonucleic acid from an individual (or several individuals) using a sterile swab and correct collection techniques in DNA test Clinics.
A sample of DNA may be used for everything from identifying human remains to arresting criminals and forgiving those who have been unfairly condemned. It has since become an essential act for police investigations. Biological evidence, like blood, and physical evidence, such as a weapon, might potentially generate DNA samples that provide insight into the case at a crime scene. While blood or a weapon is apparent, DNA can be undetectable to human sight. For these reasons, crime scene investigators have made it standard practice to extensively investigate and collect as much information as possible from the crime scene.
How to Use a Swab to Collect DNA Evidence
A swab can be used to acquire a sample from a crime scene with an obvious source of DNA (blood, urine, saliva, and pieces on steering wheels, for example).
Place the swab's tip on the surface and gently rotate it to allow any DNA to sink into the fibers.
Place the swab tip-first into the appropriate container and label to allow the sample to air dry. Until you return to the lab, keep the selection refrigerated.
Contamination of DNA Evidence and How to Avoid It
To minimize the possibility of corrupting any evidence, investigators and lab workers should wear the appropriate personal protective equipment, use clean tools, and avoid touching other items when handling all biological evidence for DNA testing.
Before placing evidence in an evidence bag or envelope, it should be left to air dry. Even after correctly collecting and storing DNA, it is critical to realize that it can be readily destroyed. Improper storage, direct sunlight exposure, or too warm can cause DNA damage. Keep gathered evidence dry and cold to avoid deterioration and get it to the lab as quickly as possible.
What Kinds of DNA Sources Can You Swab?
You may quickly swab for DNA from a variety of popular sources. DNA may be extracted from several different surfaces and materials.
Swab frequently touched areas including computer keyboards, doorknobs, driving wheels, eyeglasses, and worktops.
Using a Central Database to Compare Profiles
CODIS has provided leads that have helped in about 170,000 investigations as of 2012. When a laboratory puts a case into CODIS, a weekly search of the DNA profiles in NDIS is performed, and any matches are automatically sent to the lab that provided the DNA profile. DNA profiles from the following people can be found in the NDIS databases:
Missing Persons – includes DNA reference profiles of people who have gone missing.
Biological Relatives of Missing Persons – includes DNA profiles freely provided by missing persons' relatives.
Unidentified Humans (Remains) – this section provides DNA profiles derived from unidentified human remains.
DNA: The Most Convincing Proof
Even the most skilled crime scene detectives might come up with DNA that has been tampered with. This occurs when one or more environmental elements, including temperature, sun exposure, germs, mold, and weather, have already influenced DNA from urine samples at the crime scene before collection. Even if one or more of these elements appear to have tainted a crime scene, it's still critical to follow correct DNA collection protocols to optimize the chances of retrieving useable evidence.
Thanks to modern technologies, it is now more possible than ever to solve crimes using DNA evidence in humans acquired from crime scenes. When appropriate DNA collection, handling, packaging. And transport are combined with high-tech laboratory forensics, strong evidence that will stand up in court may be produced. If processes are maintained, almost unnoticeable data such as keratinocytes and spit could be the secret to investigating a murder.

If you've invested in excellent quality Russian hair, chances are you'll want to reuse it. But don't make the mistake of thinking the best hair needs the least care. Because it's so fine and light, and because you want it to last a long time, Russian hair needs to be treated with lots and lots of TLC.
To help keep your Russian hair extensions nourished and supple, you need to start by using a good quality oil. We've tried all kinds of products over the years and can highly recommend L'Oréal Professionnel Mythic Oil.
Use two to three pumps of oil and rub between your palms. Next, work through the mid lengths and ends, avoiding the roots and bonds. Blow dry immediately using a medium heat setting. Not only will it help prevent your hair from drying out and breaking off, but because it penetrates the cuticle, it pushes water out of the hair, so has the added bonus of cutting down on drying time too.
And let's face it, no matter how much you love your hair, anything that speeds up the tedious blow drying process is worth buying for that alone!
You can also work a small amount of Mythic Oil through the ends of dry hair after using heated styling products or in between washes. If your hair needs a little help absorbing the oil, just use your hairdryer for a few seconds on the ends and brush through. Hey presto, supple, shiny locks!
Heated styling tools should be used sparingly if you wear Russian hair extensions but we know that there are times when only your favourite straighteners/wand/tongs will do. Be warned though, if you want to prolong the life and appearance of your hair extensions, heat protection is vital.
Those clever so and so's at GHD have come up with the perfect product in the shape of…wait for it…Heat Protect Spray. Okay, so the name might not fill you with inspiration and excitement but it does exactly what it says and that's good enough for us!
When you've nearly finished blowing your hair dry, lightly mist throughout your mid lengths and ends with the Heat Protect Spray. Don't use too much though, you don't want to over wet your hair and it won't make it work any better. Give it a good comb through to distribute and then smooth out with your dryer and brush for gorgeous, straight hair that's full of body and bounce.
If you're going to use straighteners/wand/tongs, follow the steps above then lightly mist again before you get to work transforming your tresses.
Be warned though, don't fall into the trap of thinking that using the best products means you can batter your hair with regular exposure to heated styling tools. Most of them operate at around 180 degrees, unfortunately there's nothing on earth that will stop those temperatures from causing damage if used excessively.

T-Pain Says Chris Brown's "Heartbreak on A Full Moon" Was His Favorite Album of 2017
It was on October 31st that Chris Brown dropped f his Heartbreak On A Full Moon double disc effort, a hefty project that features 40 cuts, a facet that according to T-Pain makes it so easy to love.
RELATED: T-Pain Says Post Malone's "rockstar" Wouldn't Have Hit #1 If He Was On It
"There's enough to pick from," he explained in a recent interveiw with Rap-Up, reasoning why Breezy's eighth studio album was his favorite outing the year. "You're gonna like most that album, but even if you don't like most the album, you're gonna like an album's worth that album. There's for sure 12 songs on there that you'll like. You can't go wrong. You cannot not like a big chunk 45 songs. You're gonna like an album's worth it so there's no way to lose on that album. There's no way to not like that album.
Heartbreak On A Full Moon proved to pull its own weight, having earned a Gold certification and peaking at the Number 3 slot on the Billboard Hot 200 charts. On the track listing, you'll find that previously-released singles such as "Party" and "Privacy" have also earned Brown an additonal Platinum plaque or two.
As for T-Pain, he went on to say that he'd be looking forward to making a few waves in 2018 as he prepares to unleash tricks tucked up his sleeve, including the long-awaited Stoicville: The Phoenix effort. "Stoicville is like a passion project for me," he relayed. "I didn't put out Stoicville because the label wouldn't have treated it right."
Now that the hitmaker's time with RCA is up, sky's certainly the limit on what awaits the T-Pain hive in the new year.


The European Union (EU) on Tuesday adopted some contingency plans for "no-deal'' Brexit, the European Commission's deputy head has said.
The Commissioner, Frans Timmermans said that a negotiated divorce with Britain was still by far the bloc's preferred solution.
According to him, very intense negotiations are underway but the two sides are still "not there yet" in spite of progresses that have been made.
"We also discussed a number of issues related to our no-deal planning. You have to do that anyway,'' he stressed.
Mr Timmermans said there was need to prepare for all options.
He also confirmed that the commission was proposing to exempt Britons travelling to the EU from visas after Brexit.

SB: New Additions Lead Florida to Best Start Since 2018
The Gators are off to a near-perfect start to their 2022 season as they prepare to kick off SEC play this weekend in Gainesville. Florida's 21-1 record marks its strongest start to a season in four years.
Despite returning four pitchers and the majority of their starting lineup from last season, the Gators added several new pieces — transfers and freshmen — to upgrade this year's roster.
Pitching Additions
In the circle, right-handers Lexie Delbrey and Marissa Mesiemore have impressed in 24 appearances combined. Delbrey has started nine games and is 7-1 with a save. The freshman Bainbridge, Georgia, native has struck out a team-high 58 batters — sixth in the SEC — across 48 innings. Delbrey has dealt four of Florida's six complete games thus far.
While senior right-hander Elizabeth Hightower was sidelined with a shoulder injury, Delbrey pitched 23.2 frames in seven appearances. "[Delbrey's] been the ace of this staff here the last 12 days," Florida head coach Tim Walton said.
Mesiemore — a graduate transfer from Florida Gulf Coast — has been used primarily as a relief pitcher. The Bushnell, Florida, native is 2-0 and boasts a sub-1.00 WHIP.
At the Plate
Offensively, Florida's batting order appears different from last season due to four new faces in the starting lineup.
Freshman outfielder Kendra Falby has started all 22 games so far and leads off for the Gators now that fifth-year second baseman Hannah Adams bats second. Falby is one of only seven players in the nation currently hitting north of .500. The Odessa, Florida, native leads the team with 36 hits — second most in the country — and 49 total bases.
"I just kind of came in with the mindset like you're a freshman," Falby said. "So just come in and earn your spot and work hard, and honestly it's paid off."
Falby has shown off her base-running skills as she and redshirt junior Skylar Wallace have each stolen 20 bases, which trails just three players nationally. Among that elite company, Wallace is the only one who has yet to be caught stealing.
"Who doesn't like seeing us speed around the bases," Wallace said after last Sunday's doubleheader. "On hits that most people might think is a single, we're turning them into doubles, triples, we're scoring."
Wallace — an everyday starter who bats in the three-hole — is hitting .482 and boasts the second-best on-base percentage in the country (.639). The Alabama transfer has dug out three doubles, four triples, two homers and an inside-the-park home run.

— Gators Softball (@GatorsSB) March 7, 2022
Wallace's discipline at the plate has allowed the Woodstock, Georgia, native to draw 18 walks — trailing only two others nationwide — in addition to eight hit-by-pitches.
Freshman infielder Regan Walsh has started all 22 contests and shares the team lead for doubles (5) and home runs (3). In the field, however, Walsh has committed eight of Florida's 10 errors predominantly playing shortstop. Despite turning a pair of double plays, the Redondo Beach, California, native holds a team-low .822 fielding percentage.
"Making an error usually isn't a point of frustration for me as a coach," Walton said following last Sunday's doubleheader. "It's just when that compounds into taking that to your at-bat or making another mistake out of it."
Freshman catcher Sam Roe — who alternates starts behind the plate with sophomore Emilie Wilkie — is off to a hot start. In just 29 at-bats, Roe went yard twice and drove in six runs. Roe maintains a perfect fielding percentage on 73 chances, although the Destin, Florida, native has yielded two stolen bases and a passed ball.
"[Wilkie] kind of took me under her wing and she's like mentoring me through it me," Roe said following Sunday's doubleheader. "Without [Wilkie], I don't where I would be."
SEC Opening Weekend
The Gators will look to remain in the win column Saturday when they open conference play at home against Mississippi State. The Bulldogs enter the series with a 15-8 record but are 0-1 on the road. Saturday's game is scheduled for noon and will air on the SEC Network.

November 14, 2014 is when this chapter of our lives began, but our story together started eight years earlier. Sarah and I met as freshman at Mount Vernon Nazarene University. She worked part-time as a cosmetologist during our first year of dating and ultimately ended up choosing to become a full-time hair stylist. Four years later I asked Sarah to marry me. She said yes and we were married on July, 5, 2010 in Columbus, Ohio. I completed by bachelor's degree two weeks before we were married and began pursuing my doctorate in psychology two months after our wedding. For the following four years I was a full-time student and she worked as a hair stylist until we welcomed our firstborn son into the world on November 20, 2014.
After nine months of arguing passionate discussions we agreed that once he was born Sarah would become a stay-at-home-mom and we would find a way to survive on my graduate student stipend and tips from my weekend serving job. This whole story is best told elsewhere though, the takeaway message is that the numbers said we couldn't, but our faith said we could and somehow we did!
These days we find ourselves in South Bend, Indiana, further than we've ever been from our friends and families, as I complete my year-long doctoral internship and Sarah continues to stay home with our son. Beginning this fight with stage III brain cancer wasn't part of the rough draft we had for our lives, but sometimes life makes unexpected edits. My prayer is that as we invite you into our battle with cancer we also invite you to meet an amazing God who has promised to carry us through.


Talbot Robertson Preston had the signed permission of both his parents when he joined up at the age of 18 and 3 months on 26 August 1916. He needed it as without this permissio, he would not have been able to go abroad until he was 19. This means that he was still only 18 and 7 months when he embarked for Britain on 23 December 1916. But as his headstone inscription asks - How could I stay? This wasn't just a simple statement but the last line of a very patriotic piece of verse written by James Drummond Burns who, like Talbot Robertson, was a former pupil of Scotch College in Melbourne.
The bugles of England - and how could I stay?
The banners of England - and how could I stay?
England, O England - how could I stay?
Robertson arrived in Britain on 17 February 1917 and on 22 August went to France. He was wounded barely a month later, on 29 September. Evacuated to a Casualty Clearing Station, he was operated on the next day for 'severe gun shot wound of left thigh'. On 1 October he was admitted to No. 26 General Hospital at Etaples where he died six days later.
Sed miles sed pro patria.
Who died before his time but as a soldier and for his country.
