Sikkim, the beauty of Himalayas

SIKKIM, SEP 21, (UITV): Sikkim has been given many names. The Lepchas, original inhabitants of the land called it Nye-mae-el `paradise'. The Limbus named it Su Khim or `new house' while to the Bhutias it was Beymul Demazong `the hidden valley of rice'.

Today, travelers embarking on a journey of Sikkim discover a mystical wonderland of spectacular natural beauty. The panoramic perfection of the snow-capped Himalayas, the heady scent of flower-bedecked meadows, the vibrant culture and joyous festivals, the infinite variety of its flora and fauna makes it a holiday that is at once fascinating and challenging.

The crowning glory of Sikkim is Mt. Khangchendzonga, the third highest mountain in the world. With magnificent snow and ice scenery it is often regarded as the undisputed monarch among the peaks of the world. But for the Sikkimese Khangchendzonga is much more than a mountain and is revered as the abode of their guardian deity Dzo-nga.

Even today the mountain god is invoked and prayed to during Pang Lhabsol, a major Sikkimese festival, which also commemorates the blood brotherhood sworn between the Lepchas and the Bhutias at Kabi in the fifteenth century. The sacred mountain can be viewed from every corner of Sikkim and remains an intrinsic part of the consciousness of the people.

Sikkim shares its border with Nepal in the west and Bhutan in the east, with the Tibetan plateau rising from its northern border. It was once a Himalayan monarchy and part of the fabled Silk Route to China. Its merger with India in 1975 has offered a window to the world to discover the treasures of this hidden land.

Sikkim's tiny size geographically belies the profound diversity she offers. The state has the steepest rise in altitude over the shortest distance and has within its 7,096 sq. kms the entire climatic range, from tropical to temperate to alpine, bestowing on the land an intense natural heritage. Lush and thick forests, flush with blooms of exotic flora, hilly expanses embellished by Sikkim's two main rivers, the Teesta and the Rangeet, the picturesque villages, hot springs and waterfalls have a compelling appeal.

TheThe mountain sides are dotted with many caves which are considered holy by the people and revered as places of pilgrimage. The 135 feet tall statue of Guru Padmasambhava is situated at Samdruptse, South Sikkim.

Sikkim has much to offer all her visitors. From popular home stays where one can get a first hand experience of rural Sikkim to endless possibilities for adventure sports. From ancient monasteries and flamboyant festivals to all the amenities of the modern world. The State is naturally gifted having all sorts of destinations and circuits required for the tourists.

What is Pixel Hobby?

Pixelhobby is an addictive mini-mosaic craft. Our ready to assemble kits make a great gift idea or a hobby that can give you hours of enjoyment by yourself or as a family project.

In the following paragraphs, we will show you the materials you will use and give you an idea how this craft works. Make sure you check out the video at the bottom of the page.

Pixel Hobby Materials Pixel Squares

There are currently 312 different Pixel Colours. Pixels are soft 2mm plastic tiles with a matte finish. On each Pixel Square, there are 140 pixels. On the back of the pixel square in the centre you can see a number which corresponds to the pixel colour. You can also see the pixels have a small hole in the bottom of them. Pixels are removed from the pixel square individually and placed onto the Baseplates, which have moulded pegs which the pixels fit firmly onto.
The design sheets will tell you where to place each pixel.

Standard Baseplate

The standard baseplate is 5”(12.7cm) by 4” (10.16cm). Each baseplate is made of clear plastic and has 2000 pegs onto which pixels fit snugly without the need for any adhesive. On the back of each baseplate, if you hold it up to the light you can just make out an arrow which you can use as a guide to ensure your design is always facing the right direction.

Design Sheet

Design sheet

Design sheets will have either 2 or 4 rectangles on each page. During assembly, the see through baseplate is positioned over a design rectangle and then the symbols under it are read to determine which colours to use and where to place the pixels. A symbol key is shown next to each design rectangle. Each design rectangle will have only four colours to make it easier to locate the symbols, so each baseplate of a design will usually require several design rectangles.

Someone made a LEGO Superhot VR and now I want a sequel more than ever

Spread the love

When you experience something as amazing as Superhot VR, it’s nearly impossible not to want more. The unique time-stopping mechanics that define Superhot work unbelievably well in VR, as time moves when you do and it encourages players to scope out the area with their eyes and heads before moving their fists and blindly jumping into the action. The game has made its way onto our top VR games lists more than once, and seeing this amazing LEGO set conjures up thoughts of what could possibly make an appearance in the next Superhot VR title.

While the team is still feverishly working away on the rogue-like expansion SUPERHOT: MIND CONTROL DELETE, plenty of folks have been clamoring for more white-and-red VR action in a more involved way. Thankfully, for those of us that have a longing desire to return to the world of Superhot, the developers haven’t counted out a possible sequel or expansion to the incredibly popular title. After all, the VR version of the game made $2 million in a single week during the Holiday 2019 time period, and it’s clear that plenty of folks love the ideas put forth in the game.

Our favorite VPN service is more affordable now than ever before

So what can we expect, going forward? Realistically, some form of MIND CONTROL DELETE could be added to the VR version of Superhot, but it would take a fair bit of modification if the current style of play in Superhot VR is maintained. Alternatively, now that VR gamers are used to walking around virtually and all major VR systems support roomscale VR natively, there’s little reason the real meat of the main game can’t make its way to your favorite virtual reality platform.

We need melee weapons in Superhot VR.Source: Superhot

At this juncture of time, we’ve got plenty of examples of successful shooters and full-length games that translate perfectly into the VR space. The non-VR version of Superhot features full-sized levels with guns, katanas, platforming, and plenty of other elements that fill the spaces in-between what is experienced in the standing-only VR version.

The biggest hang-up is likely the developer’s size, which is focused solely on Superhot’s future development and is busy spending its cash funding other development studios to provide for the indie gaming market, at large. Could we see a true VR sequel to Superhot? The likelihood is incredibly high, given the success of the original, and it’s hopeful that the game will include enhanced mechanics and additional content that we’re seeing from the development of SUPERHOT: MIND CONTROL DELETE.

While it’s less likely that we’ll get a real LEGO version of the VR game, we’ve seen LEGO partner with plenty of other properties in the past, so we wouldn’t put it past them to do it. Plus, given the fact that enemies explode into little triangles in the current version of the game, exchanging that triangular aesthetic for a brick one certainly wouldn’t be far-fetched.

Review Summary

7 Reviews

I am going to get this pant in all colors. Very comfortable and looks cool.

Not what I expected

Wasnt expecting these.. no pockets. Not sure if they are daywear/gymwear...

Great quality and features

Very comfortable and great fit! The usual great quality you would expect from UnderArmour.

Comfortable but thin!!

These are very comfortable but the material is so thin more like something you would wear as a drifit shirt!! I would like them much more if they had a bit more support. If you have any flab, jiggles, or wiggles in your legs these will definitely show it...LOL

I like the comfort and weight of this pant, good movement with no binding

Cute idea

These cute capris didn’t work for me bc the fabric showed all my unflattering lumps so returned them, whic was convenient to do! I have a small waist and larger hips. Could have fit better

Have a lot of under armour..great fit and material..moves with you..overall great quality..wished they came in navy...my under armour shirts go with it nicely..totally hooked on under armour...love it [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

Catching up with BANG and Duny

Hi Duny, it’s been a while since we spoke, there have been a lot of new things at Bang! You now have underwear and sportswear. What made you branch out into these markets?

Hi, Tim. Nice to chat with you again! Yes, we love introducing new prints, colors, and new lines such as underwear and activewear. We launched our underwear line in 2019. We always had some activewear products and accessories, and we have been gradually adding new elements to that line. We now have hats, tank tops, two kinds of gym shorts, workout pullovers, workout pants, and bags.  We started by designing swimwear. Creating activewear and underwear was a logical next step as our brand was born out of the lifestyle of our main audience: guys who love the Beach, the Active Nightlife, and the Gym (B.A.N.G.!). And practically our customers started asking for those items even before we had developed them, so in a way it was also our answer to their requests.

In the underwear section, you focus on three styles, the brief, boxer brief, and jock, what made you settle on these three styles to start with? Are you expanding to bikinis or thongs in the future?

We consider those three styles as the all-time classics of men’s underwear. So, we wanted to start with those as the core building blocks of the BANG! underwear line. At this time, we are developing new styles for our underwear line, so stay tuned to find out more.

You are known for swimwear; can you tell us what new collections you have for Summer 2020?

In our latest 2020 collection, we have added brand new cuts, styles, prints, and colors. We are impressed with how well-received our new “Show Shorts” have been, which are our “showiest” beach shorts ever, for those who crave showing off their legs more than they ever could in standard beach shorts. The cut is based on vintage rugby or volleyball shorts, but we added to them BANG!’s signature shape-enhancing tweaks. Another well-received new release is our “Flex Shorts,” which are the most flexible shorts in our line, as their construction is equipped with a dual-type hybrid waistband. They combine a Flat Style section at front with an elasticated segment at the backside, which enables this bathing suit to adapt comfortably to variations in waist sizes and diverse body shapes, yetdelivering a slick look with a perfect fit. And of course, we introduced new series prints and colors. With names such as Xanadu, Super Pop, Party Lime, and Pink Bomb, how can you not get excited?

One of my favorite lines you have this swimmer is the Xanadu line. What inspired you to create this line?

The creative direction of BANG! as a brand is strongly influenced by icons of pop culture from the 70s, 80s, and 90s. When we were creating that print, we came up first with that texture composed of intermingling and interweaving bright lines, which turned out to look like neon lights. And we thought of placing them in a way as if they were dancing inside a swimsuit. When we completed a first sample of the finished piece and tried it on a model, we realized it looked as if “a million lights are dancing and there you are…” and it was almost like a Eureka moment: my business partner, Cristian Cravello, and I both shouted together: “That is so Xanadu!” It is fun, an instant classic and a little camp – in short it is very “BANG!”

Your swimwear comes in shorts, briefs, and bikinis. Have you noticed in the last few years more or less guys wearing swim briefs/bikinis?

We see a general trend towards more interesting and revealing cuts outside of the boxy shorts-like aesthetic. We are not yet at a point where all guys want to wear a bikini-cut swimsuit, but we sense there is a significant shift towards swimwear styles that enhance or flaunt a men’s body shape, rather than tries to hide it. Our main mission at BANG! is our constant obsession with “perfect fitting swimwear” for men. Women have so many fantastic options available when it comes to swimwear, yet on the men’s side, the majority of the brands keep putting out there the same styles that we think are cut so horribly. We decided to start with our BANG! brand as we got tired of going to the Beach and seeing so many men walking by, wearing those so-called beach shorts that we felt actually look like table cloths. We wondered, “why can’t men’s swimsuits fit and look as good as your best pair of designer jeans?” And that has always been what we work so hard to achieve with BANG!: swimsuits that can fit a man’s body like nothing else out there.

Each year you have the most amazing prints, how do you find such creative and fun prints?

The inspiration can come from anywhere. Cristian usually comes up with some crazy ideas. But the real magic happens when we get together and start playing around and tinkering with them. We always joke that we consider ourselves “D.J.s” or “Design Jockeys” because what we enjoy the most is to “remix” elements of design. Some of our prints our practically “mash-ups” of many other things that one of our designers may have come up with as an isolated element. But then we fuse it with other visual elements to turn them into something new. And just like the Chainsmokers or Daft Punk we work great as a duo.

One question you may get, but I have to ask for our readers, the last year or so swim thongs are gaining in popularity, have you thought about expanding into thongs?

Yes. We have thought about it. And we also always listen to what our customers ask for.

Those styles certainly are gaining popularity. So, at some point, we may find ourselves going back to our drawing boards to start brainstorming about what an ideal thong-by-BANG! should look like?

You have been the face of the brand since the beginning, which is your favorite style to wear to the Beach?

I love our Swim Mini-Briefs, which is our most revealing cut because I love the sun, the Beach, and I can never get enough of it.

This year, 2020, has had a lot of setbacks, specifically with C.O.V.I.D., what can we expect to see later in the year from Bang?

We pride ourselves, not only on our products but also in our customer service. With the recent turn of events, one thing that we will keep on making our priority more than ever is to be more attentive to our client’s requests, feedback, and needs. We plan to keep in place year-round our Free Shipping options available to all, as well as our Free Exchanges and Returns policies that our customers keep raving about so much in their reviews and messages to us. If we want to offer the best fitting and most complete line of swimwear for men out there, we also need to make it easier for our customers to pair them with their favorite match.

Reaching women in Mosul, where the shadow of conflict still lingers

MOSUL, Iraq – After the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL, also known as ISIS or Daesh) captured Mosul in 2014, most of the maternity wards and hospitals in the city were shuttered, leaving hundreds of thousands of women and girls in a grim state. “During the reign of ISIL, we were in a really bad state. We had nothing,” Eman, a mother from West Mosul, told UNFPA.

“ISIL burned the whole hospital down,” said Dr. Ibtihal Jabouri, the director of obstetrics and gynaecology at Al-Khansa Hospital. “When I first saw the delivery rooms and operating rooms and that everything was burned… I couldn’t help but cry.”

Today, about a year and half after the fall of ISIL’s last stronghold in Mosul, health services have yet to be fully restored. And the need for care is as critical as ever as residents pick of the pieces of their former lives.

Damage that lasts

“When ISIL fighters came to our town, they stayed for two years. We faced hunger and lack of medicines,” said one woman, who preferred to remain anonymous. “They would come to our house, harass my husband, and threaten to blow up our house.”

Humanitarian organizations moved in to provide services where possible during the conflict.

“UNFPA stepped onto the plate and actually created this hospital out of nothing,” said Taryn Anderson, clinical coordinator at Hammam Al-Alil Field Hospital. “This was during the Mosul conflict, when we were relatively close to the front lines, so that any potential patients could evacuate to us for medical care.”

But the damage has long outlasted ISIL’s control.

“There are very limited maternity services in the region. A lot of the facilities have been destroyed through conflict,” Ms. Anderson said.

With partners, UNFPA is supporting midwifery services.

The economic impact of the crisis has left many patients unable to afford essential services.

With local partners, UNFPA is helping to rehabilitate health facilities, including the obstetrics and gynaecology department of the Mosul General Hospital. “Work has been steadily increasing towards full functionality. Presently, we perform 10 to 12 Caesarean sections daily. Sometimes we have up to 20 to 30 natural deliveries per day,” Dr. Ibraheem said.

UNFPA-supported services are provided for free.

“I was supposed to have a natural childbirth. In the end, the doctors decided to do a Caesarean section because it was best for the baby. If it wasn’t for this hospital, we would not have had anywhere else because we don’t have money,” said Eman, who recently delivered her fifth child.

Psychological trauma

The conflict has cast a long shadow on the residents of Mosul.

“A lot of displaced people arrived with serious psychological trauma,” said Samira, a social worker stationed at a displacement camp outside Mosul.

“When ISIL came, we had to leave on foot. I was pregnant, and I fled with my son to a nearby camp after my husband was killed by ISIL,” one anonymous Mosul resident recalled. She sought psychosocial support services at a UNFPA-supported women’s centre.

“Before I came to the centre, I was very tired. But when I started coming to the centre, I felt a sense of relief,” she said.

In 2018 in Mosul, UNFPA supported 14 reproductive health clinics and six hospitals in the area, and reached 360,000 women and tens of thousands of girls, men and boys with reproductive health services, including consultations, family planning, antenatal care, and other assistance.

UNFPA also reached over 100,000 women, 71,000 girls, 32,000 men and 29,000 boys with case management for gender-based violence, psychosocial support, adolescent support services, awareness-raising and dignity kits.

Former LPR ‘minister’ detained in Luhansk region

13:28, 01 April 2015
236 0

Ukraine’s SBU state security service has detained the former Minister of the Coal Industry of the Luhansk People’s Republic militant organization, the press center of the SBU reported on Wednesday.

According to the report, the man led the ministry created by the militants for misappropriation of Ukrainian coal resources in May last year, with the support of the former leader of the LPR Valeriy Bolotov. Until the end of August 2014 he controlled the coal enterprises in the temporarily occupied territory of Ukraine in the interests of the militants.

The funds from the sale of coal produced by the state-owned mines were criminally assigned by the leaders of the LPR militant organization.

The directors of mining companies who refused to obey the illegal orders were fired by the “minister” and the militants threatened them with physical violence.

On March 31, the SBU’s counterintelligence detained the citizen, who left the militant-controlled territory and hid in a former kindergarten that he had illegally privatized, where he built his own estate.

SBU investigators have opened criminal proceedings against the man under Part 1 Article 258-3 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine, which foresees up to 15 years in prison for participating in a terrorist organization. The investigation is continuing.

Axel Springer AG publishing house has no intent to publish a refutation of the article in the Bild newspaper about the incident with Interior Minister of Ukraine Yuri Lutsenko and his son Oleksander that happened in the Frankfurt airport on May 4.

Deutsche Welle reported this referring to a publishing house’s spokesman.

The spokesman confirmed that the publishing house really received an inquiry from Yuri Lutsenko’s lawyer with a demand to retract from the online website of the Bild a report published earlier about the son of the Ukrainian Minister, and to publish a refutation of a part of accusations.

However, Axel Springer AG, which is the owner of the Bild newspaper, refused the demand.

In line with the law on printed press of Berlin, periodicals may refuse demands of interested persons or institutions if they believe that these persons do not have any grounded interest in publishing the refutation. In such a case, the interested side should turn to court.

According to the information of Axel Springer AG, it did not receive any written ruling of court on the case, as of May 26. In case, if the publishing house receives the ruling, it will decide about its further steps.

As UNIAN reported earlier, on May 5, the Bild reported that in Germany at the Frankfurt airport the police detained drunken Yuriy Lutsenko and members of the Ukrainian delegation. A 19-year-old son of Yuriy Lutsenko, Oleksandr was allegedly drunk too, and resisted the police

On May 22, the Land Court of Berlin issued a ruling on the appeal of Oleksandr Lutsenko to the Bild newspaper and obliged the edition to publish the refutation drawn up by the minister`s son. In particular, Oleksandr Lutsenko asked in his appeal to refute information of the Bild on his drunk state at the Frankfurt airport.

UNICEF statement on recent case of sexual violence in India

Attributable to Anju Malhotra, UNICEF Principal Gender Advisor

NEW YORK, 20 July, 2016 – “The reported gang rape of a young Dalit woman in India by the same five men who had raped her three years ago underlines the heinous culture of impunity that surrounds violence against girls and women.

 “Approximately 120 million girls worldwide – 1 in every 10 – will experience sexual violence. The majority of these girls are violated for the first time between the ages of 15 and 19.

 “But outrage is not enough. We need action now to end this brutality that has become routine and to give the victims of violence the justice and protection they deserve.”

UNICEF promotes the rights and wellbeing of every child, in everything we do. Together with our partners, we work in 190 countries and territories to translate that commitment into practical action, focusing special effort on reaching the most vulnerable and excluded children, to the benefit of all children, everywhere.

Solar Orbiter is Already Starting to Observe the Sun

On February 10th, 2020, the ESA’s Solar Orbiter (SolO) launched and began making its way towards our Sun. This mission will spend the next seven years investigating the Sun’s uncharted polar regions to learn more about how the Sun works. This information is expected to reveal things that will help astronomers better predict changes in solar activity and “space weather”.

Last week (on Thursday, Feb. 13th), after a challenging post-launch period, the first solar measurements obtained by the SolO mission reached its international science teams back on Earth. This receipt of this data confirmed that the orbiter’s instrument boom deployed successfully shortly after launch and that its magnetometer (a crucial instrument for this mission) is in fine working order.

The SolO mission carries a total of ten instruments that are part of its advanced scientific suite, a combination of imagers, remote, and in-situ sensors. Four of these instruments are designed to measure properties of the environment around the spacecraft, particularly the electromagnetic characteristics of the solar wind (the stream of charged particles constantly emanating from the Sun).

Three of these in situ instruments have sensors located on the spacecraft’s 4.4 m-long (~14.5 ft) titanium/carbon-fiber boom, which was extended on Wednesday (Feb. 12th). However, two of the magnetometer’s sensors had been switched on already (21 hours after launch) by their operators at the European Space Operations Centre in Darmstadt, Germany.

Having these sensors active before and after the extension of the boom allowed the science team to gather vital data on how a spacecraft can influence measurements taken in the space environment. Tim Horbury of Imperial College London, who is the Principal Investigator for the Magnetometer instrument (MAG), explained the importance of this in a recent ESA press release:

“We measure magnetic fields thousands of times smaller than those we are familiar with on Earth. Even currents in electrical wires make magnetic fields far larger than what we need to measure. That’s why our sensors are on a boom, to keep them away from all the electrical activity inside the spacecraft...

“The data we received shows how the magnetic field decreases from the vicinity of the spacecraft to where the instruments are actually deployed. This is an independent confirmation that the boom actually deployed and that the instruments will, indeed, provide accurate scientific measurements in the future.”

As the boom extended over a 30-minute period, the scientists observed the extent to which the magnetic field decreased, which was one order of magnitude. Just prior to the boom’s extension, the magnetic fields observed by the operators were mostly those being generated by the spacecraft. By the end of the procedure, they got their first look at the significantly weaker magnetic field in the surrounding environment.

Matthieu Kretzschmar from the Laboratoire de Physique et Chimie de l’Environnement et de l’Espace (LPC2E) in Orleans, France, is also the Lead Co-investigator of another boom-mounted sensor, known as the Radio and Plasma Waves instrument (RPW) instrument. As he summarized the importance of these measurements:

“Measuring before, during, and after the boom deployment helps us to identify and characterize signals that are not linked to the solar wind, such as perturbations coming from the spacecraft platform and other instruments.

The spacecraft underwent extensive testing on ground to measure its magnetic properties in a special simulation facility, but we couldn’t fully test this aspect until now, in space, because the test equipment usually prevents us from reaching the needed very low level of magnetic field fluctuations.”

Before the instrument can be used to fulfill its primary purpose (i.e. studying the magnetic field of the Sun) it will need to undergo some serious calibration to make sure it’s working properly. According to SolO’s operators, this will take place between now and the end of April, and they hope to begin collecting scientific data by mid-May.

In addition to the instrument boom, the three antennas of the Radio and Plasma Waves (RPW) instrument were also deployed in the early hours of February 13th. This instrument is designed to study the characteristics of electromagnetic and electrostatic waves in the solar wind. As Yannis Zouganelis, the deputy project scientist for the SolO mission, said:

“The remote-sensing instruments will be commissioned in the coming months, and we look forward to testing them further in June, when Solar Orbiter gets nearer to the Sun.”

The combination of in-situ imagers, magnetometers, and radio wave and plasma measurements will allow scientists to observe the link between events on the Sun’s surface to phenomena detected in solar wind. This will help astronomers unlock the mysteries of solar activity, such as the 11-year solar cycle, the generation of the Sun’s magnetic field, and how solar wind particles are accelerated to high energies.

ESA’s Solar Orbiter will capture the very first images of the Sun’s polar regions, where magnetic tension builds up and releases in a lively dance. Credits: Spacecraft: ESA/ATG medialab; Sun: NASA/SDO/P. Testa (CfA)

“The ten instruments onboard our mission will be playing together like instruments in an orchestra,” said ESA Solar Orbiter project scientist Daniel Müller. “We have just started the rehearsal, and one by one, additional instruments will join. Once we are complete, in a few months’ time, we will be listening to the symphony of the Sun.”

In the coming years, the SolO mission will be working collaboratively with NASA’s Parker Solar Probe to provide the most detailed picture of the Sun in the history of solar astronomy. This will include data on its previously unstudied polar regions, the magnetic and plasma environment that surrounds it, and the mechanisms that heat the Sun’s corona and accelerate solar wind particles.

Happy Pi Approximation Day!

As a Canadian and former math teacher today satisfies my desire for proper date standards and fractional approximation.

Pi Approximation Day is observed on July 22 (22/7 in the day/month format), since the fraction 22/7 is a common approximation of π, which is accurate to two decimal places and dates from Archimedes.

Hydrangeas in the Stair Parlor

Yesterday, I shared the hydrangeas in the dining room, and today I'd like to share the purple hydrangeas in the stair parlor.

The hydrangeas give just the right pick me up on these cold, wintry days.

The vase is by Kiss That Frog available at Hazelnut.

J & I settled in this weekend for two days of binge-watching, The Crown.

Hydrangeas in the Stair Parlor, y'all!

  1. I love hydrangeas. We can only grow the white/green-white ones here. We can ammend the soil but they always revert back. sad.
    I need to watch The Crown this winter. xo Diana

  2. What a pretty color of purple and I love the vase! I haven't seen The Crown- perhaps I'll check it out.

  3. Good morning, Ron! Those purple hydrangeas are beautiful! I'm thinking they will be a part of your Mardi Gras decorations when you begin putting them out! Have a great day! xoxo

  4. We loved the crown. Such a good show. I love the urn with the hydrangeas.

  5. Hi nice to see your blog, LOVE New Orleans!! look forward to visiting you again soon...beautiful style:)

Thanks for reading and commenting @ The Uptown Acorn! I love hearing from you. Cheers, y'all!

'Antiracist Baby' by Ibram X. Kendi to be released as a picture book due to high demand

Mary Cadden
. A picture book edition of Ibram X. Kendi’s “Antiracist Baby,” one of the country’s top-selling books since the death last month of George Floyd, is coming out July 14.

Ibram X. Kendi’s latest book, “Antiracist Baby,” a board book for children that has seen unprecedented demand, will be offered as a picture book July 14.

“Antiracist Baby,” went on sale on June 16 as a board book. Because of demand, the board book's first print run of 50,000 was increased by another 100,000 before the board book was even out. The picture book version will have an initial printing of 200,000.

The demand for books on race and antiracism has skyrocketed since the death of George Floyd on May 25. Floyd, a 46-year-old black man, died after a white police officer in Minneapolis knelt on his neck for almost nine minutes while Floyd pleaded that he could not breathe.

Author Ibram X. Kendi

Three other Kendi books are current USA TODAY bestsellers, “How To Be an Antiracist”, at No. 2; “Stamped from the Beginning: The Definitive History of Racist Ideas in America,” at No. 8 and winner of the National Book Award in 2016, and the young adult version of "Stamped," Kendi co-wrote with Jason Reynolds at No. 80.

The picture book of “Antiracist Baby” will feature illustrations by Ashley Lukashevsky,  and will be identical to the board book with one exception. According to the publisher, the picture book will contain a letter from Kendi to parents and caregivers "outlining questions and discussion starters to encourage conversations about race and racism with young children."

"We’re so delighted to bring Ibram X. Kendi and Ashley Lukashevsky’s work to a new audience” says Namrata Tripathi, vice president and publisher of Kokila, the book's publisher. “It’s been encouraging to see the growing understanding among parents and caregivers that just as we want to raise children who are kind or empathetic, it is our responsibility to raise them to be antiracist. I hope that this picture book edition, with its added resource of conversation starters for caregivers and kids about race and racism, can be a helpful tool in the lifelong work of being an antiracist.”

The US Lacrosse Board of Directors adopted a five year strategic plan that will shape the organization's priorities from 2019 - 2023. The adoption was a key step in the planning process that occurred in the Spring of 2018.

The plan focuses on five key areas:

Quality Player Experience: Providing and advocating for the highest quality experience for all players at every level is imbedded in the vision and mission of USL. It is the most important factor in securing the future growth of the sport. USL will continue to be a leader in the development of best practices that promote a fun, safe and rewarding experience for players, program directors, parents, officials and coaches at all levels of the sport.

Leadership In The Sport: The future of lacrosse relies on the increased accessibility of the sport and the vitality of community, town and recreation-based programs. USL will continue to develop effective relationship at all levels of the sport to positively influence its development. USL will continue its strong emphasis on diversity and inclusion within the sport so that race, gender, sexuality and economic circumstances are not barriers to play.

Increased Brand Recognition: The challenge remains for USL to build awareness of its missions, and correct misperceptions of organizational role and impact within the marketplace and expand knowledge of its wide-ranging initiatives that help grow and improve the sport. More effective efforts to clarify the role of USL, communicate the value of its programs and services, and deepen the understanding of constituents regarding USL’s mission and vision will increase the ability of USL to positively impact the sport at all levels.

Secured Financial Future: USL has grown as an organization and helped fuel the growth of the sport nationally and internationally. It has expanded educational programs and developed community level resources; funded research for increased player safety and programs that have improved the quality of experience for all players; and invested at the local and regional level to break down barriers to play. USL intends to build on these successful efforts and increase its capacity to drive the growth of the sport.

Elevate Stature and Maximize Impact of National Teams: One of USL’s greatest assets is its National Team Program. National Team players and coaches embody the best of USL and the sport, both on and off the field, and they inspire young players. With proper support, National Teams can elevate the stature of the sport and model USL’s player development priorities. Increased investment in the National Team program will enable the country’s greatest players to have a greater impact on USL’s mission.

2019-23 Strategic Plan

West Side Lacrosse and Leadership (WSLL) is a recreational youth lacrosse organization that focuses on academics while striving to also help young athletes to love the game. Based in Charleston, the organization is working to spread the game in West Virginia’s capital city.

“We are here to share life lessons and the fun of lacrosse with players of all ages,” said Jimmy Hill, the WSLL’s founder and president. Hill launched the organization in 2016 after being lured into the sport by his two oldest sons, Tremain and Jamon.

In addition to serving as the program leader and a coach, Hill actively engages community partnerships to help provide life skills to his players.

“There just wasn’t that much outreach being done to minorities in this area,” he said. “It’s about thinking in a different way.”

Three years ago, a US Lacrosse First Stick Grant helped to support the initial launch of WSLL. Additional support arrived this year via the national governing body’s Urban Lacrosse Alliance, which provides programming assistance and resources for urban based organizations.

As a new ULA member, Hill attended last weekend’s Urban Lacrosse Alliance conference, a US Lacrosse sponsored gathering of program leaders and coaches from coast-to-coast who are passionate about urban lacrosse.

The annual event is designed to serve as a forum to support these leaders in creating new urban programming or enhancing current existing programs through shared best practices.

“Attending the conference was a real eye-opener for me in regard to the different techniques that other folks use to gets kids involved,” Hill said. ‘At the same time, there is a lot of common ground on similar problems, like funding, volunteers, participation, and getting field time.”

Sharing ideas about how to address some of these issues left Hill excited for the future.

“So many of the ideas are things that have never been discussed locally,” he said, “but I think we can make them work in our area.”

This year’s presentation topics included community partnerships, staff recruiting strategies, coaching techniques, leveraging social media, and unconventional strength and conditioning ideas.

“The conference was a big success, with attendees and speakers who represented all areas of the country,” said Eboni Preston-Laurent, senior manager of diversity & inclusion at US Lacrosse. “The true impact of this event is the opportunity for our attendees and participants to share ideas and network with one another, learning from each other in addition to the formal presentations from our excellent speakers.”

Initiated in 2015, the Urban Lacrosse Alliance is comprised of over 70 member programs, including 17 new members this year.

“We celebrate that anyone from anywhere should be able to play and compete, and our mission is to showcase our sport’s diversity to encourage ideas and promote acceptance. It’s about our collective efforts in spreading the love of the game,” Preston-Laurent said.

The full list of programs to join the ULA in 2019 were:

Cass City Boys Lacrosse -- Detroit, Mich.
City of Passaic -- Passaic, N.J.
Cusabo Nation -- Charleston, S.C.
East Side High School -- Newark, N.J.
Lawrence Township School Foundation -- Indianapolis, Ind.
Manatee Lacrosse Club -- Bradenton, Fla.
Maryland Youth and Adult Leadership and Learning -- Baltimore, Md.
Mira Mesa High School Lacrosse -- San Diego, Calif.
Nations Athletics -- Ohsweken, Ontario

Tsunami Lacrosse -- Los Angeles, Calif.
Volusia County Lacrosse -- Daytona Beach, Fla.
Verve Lacrosse -- Los Gatos, Calif.
West Side Lacrosse and Leadership -- Charleston, W.V.

Urban Lacrosse Alliance

The ULA was formed to help qualified affiliates address needs unique to their lacrosse programming through education and resources.

Walking Together- May 2016

May Newsletter 2016 There is nothing like moving to show you how much STUFF you have, OR when you are trying to live while not settled in, how essential some items are. In my family’s recent move I’ve learned that I have an excessive amount of books. What seemed reasonable at one time, is now […]

Walking Together- April 2016

by Michelle Yates

April 2016- Passover is Great! Passover makes me think of Moses, which reminds me of one of my very favorite Biblical themes: the “Call Narrative.” A “Call Narrative” is the part in so many biblical stories where God says something along the lines of, “Hey you, I want you to go and do this really […]

Vedder Thinking | Articles SEC Proposes Modernizing Adviser Advertising and Cash Solicitation Rules

Reader View

On November 4, 2019, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) proposed significant amendments to the rules under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 (Advisers Act) governing investment adviser advertisements and compensating solicitors.

If adopted, the amendments to Rule 206(4)-1 (the Advertising Rule), which has not changed substantively since its adoption in 1961, would modernize the regulation of adviser advertising to account for technological developments, changing investor profiles and consumer habits by, for instance, permitting the use of testimonials and endorsements and third-party ratings, subject to certain conditions, and, in general, replacing broadly drawn limitations with a principles-based approach. Notably, the proposed amendments would in some cases have different requirements depending on whether the advertisement was for a Retail Investor or a Non-Retail Investor. The proposed amendments to Rule 206(4)-3 (the Solicitation Rule), are intended to respond to changed industry practices since its adoption in 1979.

Endy Tight: From Benin City To The Rest Of Nigeria And Beyond

Endy Tight
Endy Tight

Benin City introduces to the rest of Nigeria and the world, one of its finest artiste, Osaremwinda Aisiruwa, popularly known by his stage name ‘Endy Tight’.

A co-owner of the record label, HyterMusic, Endy Tight has been doing music for as long as he could remember but took it professionally in 2017. The stage name ‘Endy Tight’ was gotten from his vigorous sound, hence, ‘Tight Sound’ best describes his music and style.

Endy Tight
Endy Tight

Born, November 10th 1989, Endy Tight is an only child with his roots deeply planted in the soil of Orihimwon LGA of Edo state. Although Endy tight stopped his formal education at high school level, he has been surviving on the streets of Edo state and striving in the music space of the southern part of Nigeria.

With two official singles out so far, the most recent being “Kuioromen ft.  Chaolin”, Endy Tight has a log of work in the pipeline and is about to not just continue to bless the South with his ‘tight sound’ but break across the rest of Nigeria and beyond.

Inspired by the African giant, Burna Boy, Endy Tight defines his sound as conscious music and hopes ‘his Ministry’ (which is music) contributes reasonably to the world through rhythm and melodies.

To Endy Tight, Afro is a culture and should/is always present in whatever sound is being created, whether Rap or Pop.

Endy Tight’s biggest goal is to touch lives and make a positive impact on society through his music as he believes that music is a source of comfort.

From Benin City to Nigeria and beyond, you’d agree that ‘Endy Tight’ is about to be known.

Born and Raised as Part of the Villa

Joel Peterson was part of the Villa long before he even knew it. Back in 1974, he spent some of his most memorable time taking classes from the one and only Marion Passante, Marty Passante’s lovely wife. She took a special interest in him, even calling him, “One of the best artists to come through her class.” In the early eighties, he was even asked to help paint the sets for a production of Guys and Dolls, which was presented in the then-new Forum Nightclub, with Marty himself as the lead, Nathan Detroit. They are both thrilled that his journey as an artist has brought him back to the Villa.

As both a designer and a writer his career has been filled with variety. Joel’s parents set the way for his life in the arts. His father, John Peterson, being the creator and writer of the Littles book series in 1967 opened up many doors for his son. After he passed in 2002, Joel had the honor of getting to add to the series in his own words with two holiday book specials. With a BA in Art from Binghamton University, and graduate classes in painting and 20th-century art from New Paltz he has had the ability to work in many fields such as the twice-weekly newspaper, Pipe Dream, as a graphics editor and in the printing business as the manager of the pre-press department.

Joel has indulged himself in the surroundings and when he came to the Villa Roma we couldn’t deny him a place with the people. Filled with knowledge about the arts in the area, he always has some decadent information to share with the guests. But Joel has more to offer than one conversation can convey. He took it upon himself to create a publication for the guests, locals, and surrounding area of Sullivan County. His passion bleeds into this publication in every essence of the word. From vinyl collections to steampunk festivals he helps all the secrets of the Catskills come to light.

The Roamin’ Tattler continues to grow as he releases new issues regularly, and special editions along the way, each one delving into the Catskills in a new and innovative manner.

Racino back in the game

Health, safety protocols in place at Austintown

AUSTINTOWN — Hollywood Gaming at Mahoning Valley Race Course reopened Friday under state-mandated health and safety protocols.

The state Route 46 facility will be open 8 to 3 a.m. and closed 3 to 8 a.m. for deep cleaning daily, and a limit of no more than 50 of the facility’s maximum capacity will be allowed on the gaming floor. In addition, gaming machines are configured to enforce social-distancing requirements and cleaned throughout the day.

Live music, entertainment, convention and banquet services will remain suspended, and no large drawings, tournaments or special events will take place. The valet service will remain closed.

Also, team members and vendors are required to wear masks and will undergo a health screening each day, including temperature checks, prior to their shift. Guests are encouraged to wear masks and must respond to a health screening prior to entry.

“While the amenities our customers have come to know and love may be somewhat limited for the time being, the ability to safely welcome back our team members and guests remains our top priority,” said Allie Evangelista, vice president and general manager. “With this in mind, we have been working closely with the Ohio Lottery Commisssion, state and local leaders and public health officials to finalize comprehensive Phase I reopening protocols and new health and safety precautions.

“Our returning team members will be trained on these procedures, and our guests will see reminder signage about them throughout the property.”

Shower Remodeling Contractors

Leaking Shower Contractors

With average tabs for bathroom remodeling ranging from $5,000 to $50,000-plus, homeowners are looking for luxury features they can indulge in every day. Ten or 15 years ago, everyone put in the big whirlpool tubs. They took up a lot of space, cost a fortune to fill and people never used them or used them infrequently..

The shower industry has caught on to this desire for luxury and created 'super showers,' so you can get the luxury whirlpool experience without having to wait 20 minutes for the tub to fill. When people want to upgrade their bathrooms and don't have [extra] space, more and more we're seeing them give up the tub for the super shower."

Showers must be built to withstand the dirt, grime and most importantly to not leak! We are professional shower remodeling contractors. We know just how to build or remodel your shower to ensure its longevity. When considering a remodel or shower renovation please consult with a bathroom remodeling professional. The remodeling of a shower or bathroom is completely different than any other room in your home. If not properly constructed it can cause severe damage that may not be noticed for years.

Bathing and showering is something that is a very difficult task for disabled people. The great thing about handicap showers is that they can be built to meet your personal needs and availability of space. We do not install fiberglass units. These units are made from molds and limit you to the location of grab bars, shower seats, and faucet type / location. This is extremely important depending on your disability. Why decrease the value of your largest invest with a fiberglass or plastic shower stahl that is still not going to provide you with the bathing assistance you need? Most people think that it is cheaper to have a fiberglass unit installed instead of a tiled shower..... Not True!  Maintain the value of your home with a beautiful functional shower that will make your bathing experience easier and enjoyable.

Real estate pros say it's important to keep at least one bathtub in your home for resale value, but homeowners with multiple full baths often prefer showers in the master bath and in bathrooms used by overnight guests. In fact, nearly 36 percent of households that remodeled a full bath in 2010 added a separate shower stall, up from 28  percent in 2009. The conversion depending on what kind of shower is going to be installed can be completed in as little as 4 days. This is also a great option for elderly or disabled  people who want a safer and easier way to bathe.

When you consider changing a bathtub into a shower, make sure that it's the right move for you, your family and your home.  Here are a few things to consider:

1. Future family expansion (kids love the bathtub!)?
2. At least 1 bathtub in the home?
3. Is the shower going to be big enough?
4. Home resale value?
5. Which bathtub in the house and why that one?

Water damage is a common problem often found in shower walls or just outside of the shower on the bathroom floor. The most common reasons are from a shower pan liner that was not installed properly, missing or aged silicone, missing or cracked grout, or your shower or bathtub has surpassed it's life span. A bathroom remodeling professional can usually repair the leak without removing all of the shower walls. If you have a leaking shower please contact us to explore all of the options for your leaking shower repair. Symptoms that often occur from water damaged shower walls are:

1. Wetness or dampness directly outside the shower

2. Discoloration in the baseboard or ceiling below

3. Loose tile

4. Cracked or missing grout

5. Heavy buildup of mildew around the shower/tub base

6. A musty odor

If these symptoms go unchecked, they can usually lead to extensive damage. However, if caught early repairs can often be kept to a minimum.

We recommend having your shower and tub re-silicone annually. It's your first line of defense against water penetration that can seep into the walls. Missing and damaged grout are also major contributors to water damage.
