Because we said, ‘The emperor has no clothes!'” So, what we need to do actually is to change the culture, that’s what this strike is about,” added Drescher. “The collaborative art form - we’re losing the essence of the art form and it’s because of these top-tier highly greedy, self-absorbed executives that frankly are ruining it for everyone but themselves. We’re standing in front of this beautiful studio that I have worked at many times, but this growing greed of the conglomerate that keeps cannibalizing other business to become more and more powerful and more and more connected to Wall Street than they are to the very foundational contributors of the entire business model: All of you!,” The Nanny star and co-creator said. “But the reason why we had the largest strike authorization vote in our history is because we stand at an inflection point. “Your strength and your solidarity and resolve is going to get us to the other side of this and history is in the making right now,” she reminded the lively, protesting masses.

Your computer's clock might not be keeping accurate time, or the BIOS settings might have been reset if the CMOS battery malfunctioned.Īdditionally, a low CMOS battery can interfere with the computer's ability to boot up, making it challenging to turn on the machine. The CMOS battery must be replaced since it ultimately loses its charge, just like all batteries. The CMOS battery also ensures that the BIOS settings are not lost when the computer is turned off, which can help avoid problems like boot difficulties and system crashes. This is necessary to keep file timestamps accurate and the computer's clock in sync with network time servers, among other things. The CMOS battery is important because it ensures that the computer can maintain its accurate time and date even when turned off. The BIOS settings would be lost each time the computer was switched off without the CMOS battery, which keeps the machine's clock accurate. The Basic Input/Output System, or BIOS, is a set of instructions that regulates the exchange of data between the hardware and software of the computer.

![]() ![]() “When people are going to an event, is set up,” a veteran Los Angeles street-style photographer - we’ll call him John - tells Bustle. Many paparazzi operate in the gray area between candid and staged, photographing stars who want to be seen out and about, even if they don’t act like it. When it comes to staged celebrity moments, photos like Rihanna’s - and other shots by Diggs, who’s known for his set-up work - are the tip of the iceberg. Below, three experts discuss how they’re set up, and how to spot them in a sea of photos that look too good to be true. Staged paparazzi photos like these are far from a new phenomenon, but according to industry insiders, they’ve become increasingly popular in recent years. But then, you realize: Why would a billionaire singer-entrepreneur be outside in the dead of winter, belly exposed to the world, if not for the camera? Rihanna and her boyfriend A$AP Rocky look fairly unposed, as if they were just spied on a stroll - and in theory, photographer Miles Diggs could have caught them off-guard on a snowy Manhattan corner. ![]() The pictures, which cost a whopping $1,500 to license, appeared to be candids - at least upon first glance.

Is not the iniquity of Peor enough for us, from which we have not cleansed ourselves to this day, although a plague came on the congregation of the Lord, that you must turn away this day from following the Lord? If you rebel against the Lord today, He will be angry with the whole congregation of Israel tomorrow. Then the sons of Israel sent to the sons of Reuben and to the sons of Gad and to the half-tribe of Manasseh, into the land of Gilead, Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest, and with him ten chiefs, one chief for each father’s household from each of the tribes of Israel and each one of them was the head of his father’s household among the thousands of Israel. When the sons of Israel heard of it, the whole congregation of the sons of Israel gathered themselves at Shiloh to go up against them in war. So now do not give your daughters to their sons nor take their daughters to your sons, and never seek their peace or their prosperity, that you may be strong and eat the good things of the land and leave it as an inheritance to your sons forever.’ After all that has come upon us for our evil deeds and our great guilt, since You our God have requited us less than our iniquities deserve, and have given us an escaped remnant as this, shall we again break Your commandments and intermarry with the peoples who commit these abominations? Would You not be angry with us to the point of destruction, until there is no remnant nor any who escape? O Lord God of Israel, You are righteous, for we have been left an escaped remnant, as it is this day behold, we are before You in our guilt, for no one can stand before You because of this.” “Now, our God, what shall we say after this? For we have forsaken Your commandments, which You have commanded by Your servants the prophets, saying, ‘The land which you are entering to possess is an unclean land with the uncleanness of the peoples of the lands, with their abominations which have filled it from end to end and with their impurity.

The forest area covers nearly 3 million acres of northern Colorado into Wyoming. Steamboat Springs’ backyard is the Medicine Bow-Routt National Forests. Reservations are required.Įxplore Medicine Bow-Routt National Forests The most popular one is Strawberry Park Hot Springs, where the water percolates at a delicious 104 degrees (Fahrenheit) year-round. The natural hot springs bubble to the surface creating toasty natural soaking pools. Other highlights in Steamboat Springs are, well, the hot springs for which the town was named. You can hike to the falls if you want, or, if you’re lazy, you can take the paved path that leads to a lookout clearing with views directly over the falls. A 280-foot waterfall plunges down into Fish Creek Canyon within the surrounding Routt National Forest, just outside of the historic downtown. It’s Steamboat Springs’ dramatic first act. This is a blanket statement that you can ski anywhere on this list (and ski very, very well).īe sure to visit Fish Creek Falls when you first arrive.

If you’re pressed for time, there are definitely sections of this road trip that you can cut. To get to the smaller towns you’ll take state, county, or local roads and because the entire state is cut by the Rocky Mountains, it can take a lot of time to go really short physical distances. Colorado really only has one main artery - I-70, which cuts across the state. This map shows you the route we took around Colorado and the order that we followed.

Speaking of budget, Colorado is also one of the most expensive places in the country so I’ve dedicated a section at the end to how to do Colorado and save some money in the process. The accommodations I list are ones that I would recommend if you’re going on a more forgiving budget. We were on a very strict budget, so we stayed at cheap motels or outside of town.
