"Destroy All Humans! released a PC demo today, available for download for free on GOG. The demo contains the opening cinematic, together with the intro mission.\n\nThe full game for Destroy All Humans! will come out July 28. The game was a console exclusive back in its release in 2005 for the PS2 and Xbox. The game was among the more enjoyable games on the platforms for its humor and unique story.\n\nPlayers will get a one-to-one remake of 2005 game\n\nFor players who will download the demo, they will likely go down the memory lane. The first mission plays precisely how it did in 2005, but with a ton of graphical overhauls.",

"The player assumes the form of an alien gray who crash-landed on Earth and a field full of cows. Like any alien, players will notice the cows are not humans and explore around the farm. Fans can then start zapping farmers wielding shotguns.\n\nAs the player goes on a killing spree, the entire fight escalates. The army comes in to try and overcome the alien, but the alien blaster zaps everyone into a puddle.\n\nThe game has all the features of the original game from 2005. It has all the hallmarks of being the quintessential alien. Players can kidnap humans, use telekinesis to blast cows to oblivion. They can even cause as much chaos as they want.\n\nDestroy is a humorous parody and it's nostalgic\n\nThe entirety of Destroy All Humans! is a parody of the seriousness of video games. With all the blood, gore, and guts from games like Doom Eternal and Call of Duty, Destroy is a funny take on all of it.\n\nThe game is a humorous parody of many things nostalgic for gamers. Alien invasions, cow abductions, and the like are all standard alien tropes. The game is also relentless, wanton destruction for fun, which is solid.\n\nThe game is nostalgic because it brings gamers to a time of simplicity. Back then, players didn't have to formulate combos and their twitch shooting skills. All fans had to do was let go and enjoy themselves.\n\nFor die-hard PC gamers, the release into the platform is a welcome addition. Destroy All Humans! is available for pre-order on their website, on Steam, GOG, and Stadia. The game will also come to Playstation and Xbox."

"Sharon Ollenburger has been performing rescues in the Coachella Valley for 34 years.\n\nAn injured hiker's salvation could soon come in the form of a 12-pound drone, as the Riverside County Sheriff's Department began testing drones for use in search and rescue situations Wednesday in Thermal.\n\nWith a 39-inch wingspan, 400-foot height limit and mounted HD 1080 pixel camera, police are hoping their two new Sentera Phoenix M2 Unmanned Aerial Systems can cut down on the time it takes to rescue the more than 170 people who become lost or injured in the Riverside County wilderness every year.\n\nInstead of volunteers tromping miles through the wilderness to where the lost person's cell phone last pinged or flying in helicopters to scour mountainsides, a drone pilot could simply use their computer to navigate the UAS while a trained observer watches its live video feed for signs of humans — trails, footprints and gear. It's the same way a helicopter would be used, said retired sheriff's Capt. Frank Taylor, formerly of the Thermal station. The devices can fly for about an hour before needing a battery change and will fly up to about a mile away from their operators, Taylor said.\n\nChief Deputy Kevin Vest with the Riverside County Sheriff's Department said the two drones could take over up to 30 percent of the search and rescue team's duties, freeing up ground resources to search areas in which it's more likely to find those who are missing. This could mean life or death in the dangerous triple-digit temperatures of the Coachella Valley.",
null,
"\"It gets pretty hot here in the desert and time is of the essence, especially in the Coachella Valley when there's lost hikers,\" Vest said, \"because the weather is extreme and can lead to death very quickly.\"\n\nSharon Ollenburger has been performing rescues in the Coachella Valley for 34 years. Now, as president of the Desert Sheriff's Search and Rescue team, she hopes the drones will allow volunteers to stay out of dangerous areas during the search while decreasing their average rescue time.\n\n\"Having this eye in the air will really help us out,\" she said. \"It will clear a lot of places quickly where we won't have to spend our time and our resources.\"\n\nIn order to become certified by the Federal Aviation Administration, pilots will have to fly a UAS for 20 training hours and observers will have to keep watch for 10. During that training, the UAS team will practice on 400 acres of Ocean Mist farmland in Thermal, getting the hang of handling the device and using fake lost hikers to test their ability to use the technology in a rescue situation.\n\nThe department expects their 10 volunteers will be ready to go by the end of summer.\n\n\"This is going to be an incredible asset for us,\" Ollenburger said. \"We are going to save lives with this technology.\"\n\nThrough a partnership with Sentera, the Sheriff's Department will only pay $1 for the use of the two drones for the first year, which is designed to be exploratory. After that, the department will have to decide whether the price tag of $80,000 to $100,000 per device is worth what they have to offer.\n\nThe department began exploring the use of drones about 2 years ago, Vest said, after observing how they were used by rescue personnel during Northern California wildfires and 2013 Colorado floods that left thousands in need of rescue.",
null,
"\"As we all know, the technologies have advanced greatly in the last 10 years, so it's one of those areas we constantly monitor as far as a means to be more efficient in our day-to-day operations and also at the same time to locate missing persons as quickly as possible,\" he said.",
null,
"The use of drones has become somewhat politicized since their introduction, Vest acknowledged, which is why the Sheriff's Department is hoping to make their training process as transparent as possible.\n\n\"We want the public to be very aware of how these devices operate and how we're going to use them as far as the Sheriff's Department goes,\" he said, \"and we're not going to be using it for surveillance, hovering over houses or anything along those lines, because the device does not have that capability ... (Search and rescue) is all we're going to use it for.\"",

"Houston’s 13 3s are too many for Florida State\n\nThe Seminoles went back and forth with the Cougars throughout Thursday’s entertaining affair, but Houston’s 13 3-point field goals proved too important as he pulled away late.\n\n“We had a lot of people helping us offensively but hurting us defensively,†FSU head coach Sue Semrau said. “It was a really tough decision figuring out how to stay strong but also get some production on the offensive side. We thought the area would slow them down and got out of it pretty quickly. They have been very successful.\n\nThe Seminoles had three record-breaking double-digit points with Morgan Jones and O’Mariah Gordon tied at 16. KK Timpson followed with 12 points. Jones has scored in double digits in the last nine straight games.\n\nGordon also led the team in assists with six on the night.\n\nThe Garnet and Gold continued their rebounding dominance over their opponents this season with 38 rebounds against 34 for Houston. The Seminoles bench added depth by edging the Houston bench 33-26.\n\nAt the start of the second half, Sara Bejedi led the Seminoles with eight points. Tonight’s game was Bejedi’s third game of the season with several three-pointers.\n\nThe Seminoles’ biggest lead of the game came in the third quarter by a 47-42 margin credited to 11 unanswered points from the Noles. But it continued to be a swing game as Houston responded with a 6-0 streak, never letting FSU take the lead.\n\nThe last quarter was not very successful for the Seminoles, giving Houston their biggest lead of the game.\n\nThe Seminoles will start the conference game on Sunday, Dec. 19 against Virginia Tech at 2 p.m. at the Donald L. Tucker Center. The game will be broadcast on the ACC network.\n\nLoans without credit check to unemployed people. Online improvements that pay off\n\nClosing and acquisition costs: who pays what? | Opinion"

"The lake around which I walk has an island, which used to be covered by bushes. Ducks and geese, and perhaps the Canada Geese as well, would lay their eggs in the spring. They attracted some of the next part of the food chain as well, mainly raccoons. So often the baby waterfowl would disappear over night.\n\nThen a few years ago, about the time the signs saying don't feed the waterfowl went up, the island was cleared of brush.\n\nDoesn't keep the ducks from going out there.\n\nAnd when I walked the circumfrence after the holidays, I noticed some other critters were parked there as well.",

"I'm happy to see a crane, as well as various other waterfowl, along with the silly fake igloo, etc, which light up at night. The park closes at sunset, so I haven't gone at night to see them, and they have probably been dismantled by now anyway. I did notice the lake didn't have it's customary Christmas Tree of lights out in the water this year. Times change.\n\nToday's Quote:\n\"Like a shadow that does not permit us to jump over it, but moves with us to maintain its proper distance, pollution is nature's answer to culture. When we have learned to recycle pollution into potent information, we will have passed over completely into the new cultural ecology.\""

"According to Wikipedia, The Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus), also called sunroot, sunchoke, earth apple or topinambour, is a species of sunflower native to eastern North America.It is also cultivated widely across the temperate zone for its tuber, which is used as a root vegetable.[2]\n\nI haven’t harvested my tubers yet ‘cos I’m still enjoying the flowers — that’s about all that’s flourishing in my garden during this horrible drought in California — but when I do, I’ll probably roast them with garlic, since we got a HUGE string of garlic from Gilroy, the garlic capital of the world, the last time we drove through central Cali.\n\nJerusalem artichoke brandy smells fruity and has a slight nutty-sweet flavour. It is characterised by an intense, pleasing, earthy note. The tubers are washed and dried in an oven before being fermented and distilled. It can be further refined to make “Red Rossler” by adding common tormentil, and other ingredients such as currants, to produce a somewhat bitter and astringent decoction. It is used as digestif, as well as a remedy for diarrhea or abdominal pain.\n\nIf you’ve cooked with them, please send me your recipes. Thank you!\n\n5 thoughts on “Not a Sunflower”"

"SMS\nMyanmar Beauty Queen De-throned After Graphic Rohingya Video\nBy Gabrielle Ware\nBy Gabrielle Ware\nOctober 4, 2017\nShe accused Rohingya militants of being \"harbingers of terror and violence\" in a Facebook video.\nSHOW TRANSCRIPT\n\nMyanmar beauty queen Shwe Eain Si says she was stripped of her title for speaking out against Rohingya militants.\n\nMyanmar's Rohingya Muslims are a minority group that are largely shunned by Myanmar's mostly Buddhist population. The country doesn't consider them citizens, and rights groups say the Rohingya are often targets of police brutality.\n\nThe beauty queen's video featured a Rohingya militant group known as the Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army, or ARSA, which was reportedly behind the deaths of more than 20 police and security forces. The video doesn't mention the reports that Myanmar's military allegedly killed hundreds of civilians in retaliation.\n\nIn the graphic video posted on Facebook, Shwe Eain Si called ARSA \"harbingers of terror and violence.\" She went on to claim that reports of Rohingya oppression are part of a fabricated media campaign.",
null,
"She now claims she lost her Miss Grand Myanmar title over the video. The company that rescinded the award denied this, saying the decision was made before she posted the video.\n\nMore than 500,000 Rohingya people have fled Myanmar to escape the violence and now reside in makeshift camps in Bangladesh.\n\nThe United Nations has also called out the Burmese government for what it said looked like \"a textbook example of ethnic cleansing.\"\n\nBut the former Miss Grand Myanmar isn't alone in her view of the Rohingya crisis.\n\nMyanmar's government claims ARSA is a terrorist organization and the government's actions are a part of a global war on terror.\n\nAnd Shwe Eain Si received a wave of online support for her stance after her crown was taken."

"Back in the late 80’s, when academics were more demanding where I teach, I included a section on my exam called “Association.” Students had to match a character or work they had read that semester with an enigmatic phrase I provided — only there was nothing to match the phrase to, no list of possible choices. When they complained, I told them all they needed to do was to read my mind.\n\nOf course, no way I get away with something like that nowadays. Parent-piloted Blackhawks would be raining rockets on my drafty garret, Hoodoo Headquarters.\n\nJust for fun, though, I thought I’d recreate “Association” for this post. See if you can identify these novels, plays, or long poems. Of course, it’s going to be harder for you since your choices aren’t confined to a limited number of works you’ve read in the last five months.\n\n2. Doing Dublin in a Day from St Stephen’s to the Quay\n\n5. Un-Moored, Senator’s Daughter Couldn’t Be Any Poorer, According to O’Connor\n\n6. Mama’s Boy Outwits Catty Riddler, Wins Crown, Then Goes Down, Down, Down\n\n8. Jake Lost His Snake in a Trench So He Drinks.\n\n1. Pride and Prejudice: 15-year-old Lydia’s elopement with Wickham provides Darcy the opportunity to save the Bennet family from ignominy and bring about the twin marriages that bow ties the novel with the very happiest of endings.\n\n3. The Sound and the Fury: Part One is literally narrated by an the idiot, Maury/Benjy; Part Two features Quentin’s yanking the hands off of his great-grandfather’s pocket watch; Part 3 is a tale told by a Southern bigot; Part Four completes the Fall of the House of Compson.\n\n5. Othello: Note Moor is capitalized. Othello’s wife Desdemona is the daughter of a Senator, and Flannery O’Connor perhaps not-so-famiously said, “You can’t be any poorer than dead,” which Othello and Desdemona are at the end of the play.\n\n6. Oedipus Rex: After killing the king his daddy in a fit of road rage, Poor Eddie answers the Sphinx’s riddle, becomes the king of Thebes, marries his mama, and goes down, down, down.\n\n7. The Waste Land: It’s an echo chamber of allusions. Here are specific references in the riddle: The first line of TWL is “April is the cruelest month.” There’s a Tarot reading in “The Burial of the Dead” section. From “The Game of Chess:” we get “When Lil’s husband got demobbed, I said.” Also, finally there are several lines spoken by a hysterical woman. E.g., “What are you thinking, What thinking? Think.”.\n\n8. The Sun Also Rises. Jake Barnes loses unspecified parts of his reproductive system during WWI and spends the course of the novel easing his pain via alcohol.\n\n9. Ralph Ellison’s The Invisible Man shares the same title of HG Well’s novel, only the protagonist of Ellison’s novel is black and not literally invisible.\n\n10. The Metamorphosis: Gregor Samsa, a dutiful son, metamorphoses into an noxious insect (and not because he had received vaccinations),"

"Non-Citizens Or Ineligible Voters Do Not Promote ‘Inclusive Democracy’",
null,
"From day one of her appointment as the nation’s top election officer, Jean Mensa and her Electoral Commission (EC) has been needlessly attacked, vilified, insulted and delegitimised, mostly by J.D. Mahama-led National Democratic Congress (NDC). Apparently, the source of Mahama-controlled main opposition party’s mistrust, anger, or unstoppable insults against Madam Mensa is because the Electoral Commission has uncovered a bloated voters’ register of non-citizens or ineligible voters compiled under Mr. Mahama-appointed former Electoral Commissioner—Ms. Charlotte Osei.\n\nTo that extent, ex-President Mahama and his NDC flatterers have pursued every means possible, and that includes psychological warfare, political, social, and lawsuits. The sole aim here is not only to question or undermine the legitimacy of the EC, but also to try to make the head of the Electoral Commission in particular loses credibility in the full glare of the Ghanaian public.\n\nThus, having thrown ‘everything but the kitchen sink’, Mr. Mahama and his desperate NDC cheerleaders unsurprisingly bundled themselves into the Supreme Court. Among others, they argue that the EC might have exceeded its constitutional powers regarding the commission’s attempt to compile new voters’ register so as to purge the old election register of ineligible voters.\n\nWell, they say sometimes we must be careful about what we wish for. More so, we often create our own circumstances without realising what may be creating. In other words, when Mr. Mahama and his minions created the lawsuit circumstances at the nation’s apex court, one wonders if the country’s main opposition party also realised that the outcome of their legal action is binary or twofold—in other words, the ruling could be in their favour or the other way around.\n\nSensing that the highest court of the land’s verdict might not have gone their way, Mr. Mahama and his team are now composing and singing entirely new song about the motive of the EC’s registration. The tune of their new song comprises ‘large voters’ disenfranchisement and lack of inclusive democracy’ under the present government of Nana Akufo-Addo.\n\nClosely reading between the lines, Mr. Mahama’s sour grapes response to the Supreme Court ruling in view of the voters’ register seems to imply that the NDC as the main opposition party has become a victim of Ms. Mensa’s so-called ‘diabolical agenda’, but the contrary is the case here. Mr. Mahama is simply using Ms. Mensa to play on the intelligence of Ghanaians.\n\nCulturally, Ghanaian society warmly gravitates toward people who display some form of humility/respect in public even if it is based on pretence. The NDC leader has pretentiously cultivated a persona of ‘Mr. Cool & Collected’ in the public arena. Indeed, ex-President Mahama is ‘good’ at pretention and psychological exploitation of the vulnerable Ghanaian public, including the media.\n\nThe former president now turned flag bearer keeps talking as if the world will end tomorrow because he can’t have his way by using the existing inflated voters’ register that his ideal Electoral Commissioner Ms. Charlotte Osei put together. In that regard, Mahama’s NDC has turned the present EC as cannon fodder or an obstacle that stands in the way of ‘inclusive democracy’.\n\nNow, all reasonable-minded Ghanaians should be asking these sobering questions: why is Mr. Mahama and his followers not insisting on transparent compilation of new voters’ register rather than passionately pushing against a new one? Which one is more expensive, fixing the perceived errors in the old voters’ register or compiling a new one?\n\nMore importantly, what is hidden in the old voters’ register that is providing fuel for NDC flag bearer’s anger and disdain, leading almost the entire party’s leadership to continue throwing shades at the EC and misleading Ghanaians in the process? Why is the EC’s constitutionally mandated responsibility—among others—the power to review or conduct periodic voter registration exercise freaking out NDC?\n\nHere is former President Mahama in reaction to the Supreme Court verdict last week or so: “It is worrying that the Court deferred the reasons for its decisions to the 15th of July, by which time the EC would have been two weeks into the registration exercise…throughout its history, the NDC has stood strongly for an inclusive democracy.” (Ghanaweb, 6/25/20).\n\nMajority of Ghanaians, including Mr. Mahama and his die-hard supporters, may recall the 2012 general elections. This same country’s Supreme Court system ruled that the fiercely contested presidential election should go in favour of the then incumbent President John Drama (ni) Mahama as opposed to his challenger, Nana Akufo-Addo. The latter wisely said at the time that he ‘disagree but accept the court’s verdict’ in the interest of Ghana.\n\nDuring that tense period in Ghana’s body politic, Mr. John Mahama glorified our court system; advised all to support the country’s fledgling democracy as well as the rule of law. But, today the shoe is on the other foot so he finds the ruling ‘worrying and not inclusive democracy’ enough for his liking. How time can change, educate or mis-educate people is quite amazing.\n\nPerhaps, what ex-President Mahama, Asiedu Nketia, Ofosu-Ampofo and their ilks don’t understand is that ‘inclusive democracy’ (in its true essence) does not mean democratic societies should sit idle by and allow their voting system/ballot boxes to be bloated or compromised by ineligible voters or non-citizens in the flawed argument of ‘inclusion’. In short, the submission here is that including unqualified voters or non-citizens in a country’s democratic elections does not in any way promote ‘inclusive democracy’ as Mr. Mahama is falsely trying to make the gullible among us believe.",

"Last weekend, Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates shared an old resume of himself on LinkedIn, he wrote: “Whether you are a recent graduate or a college dropout, I believe your resume looks much better than mine 48 years ago (1974).”\n\nBill Gates is still a little modest, after all, not many people are Harvard students and know a lot of computer knowledge and programming languages. The resume also mentions that he co-led a program in high school, handled schedules for private high schools, and earned over $10,000.",
null,
"Moreover, Gates also added a small piece of personal information on his resume. He said that he was 5 feet 10 inches tall and weighed only 130 pounds. He’s just a freshman at Harvard, but he lists his expected salary of $12,000 a year and says the hope is “open. ”\n\nGates also has no requirements on where to work. It is reported that Gates and Allen founded Microsoft in Albuquerque, New Mexico in 1975, and then moved the company to its current location in Redmond, Washington.\n\nGates’ resume appears to have been typed out, as was normal in 1974. He also listed his home address, where he lived with his parents when he was away from Harvard, mid-century modern home in Laurelhurst, a lakeside neighborhood in Seattle that sold for $2.6 million a year ago."

According to Reuters, this is in reaction to the White House’s decision to blacklist its elite Islamic revolutionary guard corps (IRGC) as a foreign terrorist group.\n\nPresident Donald Trump had earlier announced that the US is designating Iran’s revolutionary guard a ‘foreign terrorist organisation,’ in an attempt to increase pressure on the country that could have significant diplomatic implications in the middle east. The US president in a statement added that the move recognizes the reality that Iran is not only a State Sponsor of Terrorism, but that the IRGC actively participates in, finances, and promotes terrorism as a tool of statecraft.\n\nIn a reciprocal move, Iran’s supreme council quickly responded by designating the US forces as a ‘terrorist organisation.’ The statement from the council came after Mohammad Javad Zafir, Iran’s foreign minister, proposed that President Hassan Rouhani add the US troops operating under the umbrella of CENTCOM to their list of terrorist groups that includes ISIS and al Qaeda.\n\nIn the statement, Iran described Washington’s move as an “illegal and foolish act”. “The IRGC unlike America and its regional allies who have always supported extremist and terrorist groups in West Asia region, have always been in the frontline of fighting terrorism and extremism in the region,” the statement read."

"On joining the Chartered College of Teaching\n\nAfter overcoming a few stumbling blocks, I’ve finally joined the Chartered College of Teaching. I say finally not because of the few days’ delay (my bank apparently thought my signing up might have been a fraudulent use of my card. Do they know me at all!?), but because it strikes me that this is something that’s long overdue.\n\nI’ve always been a member of a teaching union – aren’t we all? – but like so many teachers, that was in part for the protection offered. Unions are there to protect and improve pay and conditions; while they may dress their arguments up in pedagogical terms, the bottom line is the same. And that’s all well and good: that’s their job.\n\nBut that conflict also makes it very easy for the government to dismiss what teachers say through their unions – not least the more militant groups with their outlandish demands at conferences. The profession more than ever needs a clear conduit for its opinions and expertise.\n\nBut a professional body has to cut both ways. As well as conveying views from the profession to the wider world – from parents to the DfE and Ofsted – it must also offer something to members. I’m pleased to see that the College will provide members with access to educational research, but perhaps more importantly I look forward to a useful professional journal that will help do the job of disseminating that research in ways that can have an impact in classrooms. We’re a time-poor profession as it is, and few of us have time to wade through academic journals on a regular basis; an intelligent chartered college can be the medium through which teachers receive the very best of information on good practice – and also the very clearest of evidence to dispel the nonsense of the likes of Brain Gym and Learning Styles.\n\nThe key thing at this stage is to get people participating. If the college appears not to be the finished article, I’m hoping it’s because it isn’t. I hope, too, that that means teacher members will shape it.\n\nSo let me offer a few requests for Dame Alison Peacock and her team as she leads the College in its formative stages:\n\nThe Chartered College is currently signing up founder members, who must be teachers in schools, Early Years or post-16 settings: https://www.chartered.college/eligibility\n\nI’ve updated the videos I made last year to explain the KS1 and KS2 tests to parents. As there is an option about using the Grammar, Punctuation & Spelling tests in primary schools, there are now two versions of the video for KS1 (one with, one without the GPS tests).\n\nPlease feel free to use these videos on your school’s website or social media channels, or in parent meetings, etc. There are MP4 versions available to download.\n\nA 5-minute video guide for parents about the National Curriculum tests in Year 6https://t.co/YxZl74CncP\n\nKey Stage 1 – version for schools not using the GPS tests\n\nA short video about the Key Stage 1 National Curriculum tests for parents of Year 2 pupils:https://t.co/t3xOaSGCyT\n\nWhen Jon Brunskill recently agreed to share his work on Knowledge Organisers in primary school, I was excited to see what he came up with. I wasn’t disappointed, and I’m sure many others have been looking with interest. I think there’s a lot of merit in the model, but inevitably I think there is some refining to do.\n\nI say this not as an expert – far from it, I’ve cobbled together one Knowledge Organiser in my life and remain unhappy with it. However, having spoken briefly to Jon about his, I think we both agree that there is merit in unpicking the model further.\n\nFirstly, with Jon’s permission, let me share an image of the organiser he shared (I highly recommend reading the accompanying blog before continuing further with mine!)",
null,
"Taken from Using Knowledge Organisers in Primary by Jon Brunskill\n\nAt first glance, it looks like a lot of content to learn. I think that’s partly because most of us have spent a good many years teaching broad ideas, and not expecting children to learn detail off by heart. I think there are also very few of us who could hand-on-heart say we know all this content to recall. But I think that represents the shift we need to make rather than something to fear.\n\nThat led me to question the purpose behind the Knowledge Organiser. I haven’t spent enough time thinking about them, and certainly not enough time using them, but when I have, I’ve usually considered it a vehicle for outlining the key information that I expect students to learn and retain for the longer term. Often over longer units of work these might include key ideas which are integral to later understanding, whether that’s later in the school year, or later in their education career.\n\nBy way of illustration of my thinking, let me share a knowledge organiser I constructed a couple of years ago for my Year 5/6 class",
null,
"My first attempt at a Knowledge Organiser in 2015\n\nThe differences are quickly obvious. For a start, mine is clearly based on a wider period of teaching, and perhaps more indicative of a basic revision guide, rather than providing content in advance of a unit. I think perhaps that’s also its biggest downfall. It’s worth noting that it’s something I tried and didn’t come back to.\n\nBut I think there is maybe a useful middle ground. In Jon’s case, much of the content set out – particularly on the timeline – is content that is useful for the purposes of writing an information text about the event itself (a task which Jon plans to do in his Y2 class). However, I don’t think he expects those students to secure that detail in the very long term. Arguably, this brings the organiser perhaps closer to the cramming model of revision than the more successful spaced practice approach.\n\nRuth Smith posted a comment on Jon’s blog saying she could imagine the organiser being used as a prompt during writing. While I can see the merits, I do think that the risk then – as Jon would rightly say – is that we replace the value of knowledge with the reliance on someone/something else to do the work for you. That’s not the aim here.\n\nIt leaves me wondering what the function of a Knowledge Organiser should be. I’m not persuaded of the value of knowing the date of leaving quarantine after the lunar landing. That said, the value of learning the word ‘quarantine’ is something I think is highly valuable.\n\nThe question for me becomes one of later testing (and let me be honest, I’m only at the very beginning of this journey; don’t for a second presume that I’m an expert. I’m a way behind Jon on this!) In a knowledge rich curriculum, I think one of the key functions of a Knowledge Organiser is to set out the key knowledge that I want students to retain and that I will test for.\n\nWe know of the great merit of spaced testing to aid learning, and it strikes me that a Knowledge Organiser should aim to set out that content which would likely later form part of such tests. In the context of Jon’s organiser, I could see merit in testing much of the vocabulary, the date of the landing, and perhaps the names of the crew. However, I’d also want to include some wider context – perhaps a bit more detail behind the Space Race, mention of JFK’s 1960 aim, etc. Might these replace some of the less significant dates of 1969?\n\nOf course, we’re talking about 7-year-olds in Jon’s context. They will lack much of the wider historical knowledge to place events in context, and so there is a risk of expecting too much. But equally, if we train children that knowledge is to be learned, then ought we not be training them to learn it for the long term?\n\nThe content I think* I’d like to see on Knowledge Organisers is the detail that I would also expect to use in a brief pop quiz a week later, but also on a test mid-year drawing on prior units, and again at the end of the academic year, or in the first days of the following September. There is a risk that using Knowledge Organisers to aim for short-term recall of detail that is later lost, will develop a cramming ethos, rather than one of long-term storage of information.\n\nWhat does this mean for Jon’s example? I’m not sure. Maybe a separation of the content that he expects children to retain in the long term from information which would be useful in this context? There is certainly some merit in having this timeline clear in the child’s mind as they are writing – not least because it helps to build a narrative, which is a great learning technique – but is it necessary for it to be stored in long-term memory? Indeed, is a two-week unit even long enough for such a transfer to be made?\n\nYet there is unquestionably information here which would be re-used in future that would allow such a long-term retention.\n\nMore thinking to do… but well worth doing, I think.\n\n*I say I think, because I am not entirely sure that I won’t think completely differently in six months time."

"The past few years have seen a resurgence of organized labor in the United States, with especially intense activity in just the past few months. This includes high profile union drives at Starbucks, Amazon, the media conglomerate Condé Nast, and even MIT.\n\nParallel to this resurgence is the so-called “Great Resignation.” As the frenetic early days of the pandemic receded into the distance, workers began quitting at elevated rates. According to the Pew Research Center, the three main reasons for quitting were low pay, a lack of opportunity for advancement, and feeling disrespected. Former U.S. Secretary of Labor Robert Reich even analogized it to a general strike, in which workers across multiple industries stop work simultaneously.\n\nUndoubtedly, the core cause of both the Great Resignation and growing organized labor are the same – dissatisfaction with working conditions – but they are also importantly different. The aim of quitting is to leave the workplace, the aim of unions and strikes are to change it. They do this by trying to shift the balance of power in the workplace and give more voice and agency to workers.\n\nWorkplaces are often highly hierarchical with orders and direction coming down from the top, controlling everything from mouse clicks to uniforms. This has even led some philosophers, like the noted political philosopher Elizabeth Anderson, to refer to workplaces as dictatorships. She contends that the workplace is a blind spot in the American love for democracy, with the American public confusing free markets with free workers, despite the often autocratic nature of the workplace. Managers may hold almost all the power in the workplace, even in cases where the actual working conditions themselves are good.\n\nAdvocates of greater workplace democracy emphasize “non-domination,” or that at the very least workers should be free from arbitrary exercises of managerial power in the workplace. While legal workplace regulations provide some checks on managerial power, the fact remains that not everything can or should be governmentally regulated. Here, worker organizations like unions can step in. This is especially important in cases where, for whatever reasons, workers cannot easily quit.\n\nConversations about unionization generally focus on wages and benefits. Unions themselves refer to the advantage of unionization as the “union difference,” and emphasize the increases in pay, healthcare, sick leave, and other benefits compared to non-unionized workplaces. But what causes this difference? Through allowing workers to bargain a contract with management, unions enable workers to be part of a typically management-side discussion about workplace priorities. Employer representatives and union representatives must sit at the same table and come to some kind of agreement about wages, benefits, and working conditions. That is, for good or for ill, unions at least partially democratize the workplace – although it is far from full workplace democracy, in which workers would democratically exercise managerial control.\n\nFew would hold that, all things being equal, workers should not have more agency in the workplace. More likely, their concern is either that worker collectives like unions come at the cost of broader economic interests, or that unions specifically do not secure worker agency but in fact saddle workers with even more restrictions.\n\nThe overall economic effect of unions is contentious, but there is little evidence that they hobble otherwise productive industries. A 2019 survey of hundreds of studies on unionization found that while unionization did lower company profits, it did not negatively impact company productivity and decreased overall societal inequality.\n\nMore generally, two assumptions must be avoided. The first is that the interests of the workers are necessarily separate from the interests of the company. No doubt company interests do sometimes diverge from union interests, but at a minimum unionized workers still need the company to stay in business. This argument does not apply to public sector unions (government workers), but even there, unions can arguably lead to more invested workers and stronger recruitment.\n\nThe second assumption to avoid is that management interests are necessarily company interests. Just as workers may sometimes pursue their personal interests over broader company interest, so too can management. This concern is especially acute when investment groups, like hedge funds, buy a company. Their incentive is to turn a profit on their investment, whether that is best achieved by the long-term health of the company or by selling it for parts. Stock options were historically proposed as a strategy to tie the personal compensation of management to the broader performance of a company. This strategy is limited however, as what it does more precisely is tie management compensation to the value of stock, which can be manipulated in various ways, such as stock buybacks.\n\nBeyond these economic considerations, a worker may also question whether their individual agency in the workplace is best represented by a union. Every organization is going to bring some strictures with it, and this can include union regulations and red tape. The core argument on behalf of unions as a tool for workplace agency is that due to asymmetries of power in the workplace, the best way for workers to have agency is collective agency. This is especially effective for goals that are shared widely among workers, such as better pay. Hypothetically, something like a fully democratic workplace (or having each individual worker well positioned to be part of company decision making) would be better for worker agency than unions. The question of whether these alternatives would work is more practical than ethical.\n\nThere can be other tensions between individual and collective agency. In America specifically, unions have been viewed as highly optional. The most potent union relationship is a “closed shop,” in which a union and company agree to only hire union workers. Slightly less restrictive is a “union shop,” under which all new workers must join the union. Both are illegal in the United States under the 1947 Taft Hartley Act, which restricted the power of unions in several ways. State-level “right to work” laws go even further, forbidding unions from negotiating contracts that automatically deduct union representation fees from employees. The argument is one of personal freedom – that if someone is not in the union they should not have to pay for it. The challenge is that the union still has to represent this individual, who benefits from the union they are not paying for. This invites broader questions about the value of individual freedoms, and how they must be calibrated with respect to the collective good.\n\nThe author is a member of Indiana Graduate Workers Coalition – United Electrical Workers, which is currently involved in a labor dispute at Indiana University Bloomington.",

"Detroit — The city reported 249 new confirmed cases of COVID-19 Thursday, but Mayor Mike Duggan said the figure — the fewest recorded in a 24-hour span in days — is due to a backlog in test processing and \"has nothing to do with the infection rate going down.\"\n\nThe mayor, during an afternoon news conference, said lab testing is backed up by about 400 tests and cases will rise once it's cleared. Detroit is conducting nearly a third of the overall tests for the virus in Michigan, he said.\n\n\"Nobody should look at today's number and say 'Detroit's infections were down to 249, it's dropping.' They are not,\" Duggan said. \"If you are looking at the infection rate, all you are looking at is a report card on the lab capacity. It has absolutely nothing to do with the spread of the virus within this community.\"\n\nThe city noted Thursday that testing at the former Michigan State Fairgrounds does not take place on Sundays, and because there's a four-day turnaround for lab testing results, Thursday's figures reflect a dip in the total number of positive cases.\n\nDetroit's overall number of confirmed cases stands at 6,083. The death toll is 272.\n\nThe new cases on Wednesday rose by 333 over Tuesday, and there were 26 new deaths. The city on Thursday attributed 25 more deaths to the virus.\n\n\"This virus is still growing. It's growing more slowly than it was a week or so ago,\" Duggan said. \"It's a long way from over.\"",

"Detroit Neighborhood police officer Dan Robinson tries to explain to a person driving by, why the basketball courts needed to be cleared after noticing a group playing together on April 8, 2020. (Photo: Daniel Mears, The Detroit News)\n\nOn Sunday, confirmed cases of the virus in the city shot up by 588 with 38 new deaths. Monday, the increase of positive cases in a 24-hour span was 475 and there were 29 new deaths, and Tuesday figures reflected 469 new cases and 25 additional deaths.\n\nDuggan this week told reporters that the rate of doubling for recorded COVID-19 deaths in the city was \"slowing to every five to six days.\"\n\nThe mayor was joined Thursday by U.S. Rep. Brenda Lawrence, D-Southfield, who announced she's helped the city secure $100,000 and a commitment for 10,000 more kits from Hyundai Motors to boost testing capability at the former Michigan State Fairgrounds.\n\n\"I need everyone regardless of your race, gender, economic situation — please take this serious,\" she said. \"Everyone be safe, our community needs you.\"\n\nHyundai's donation is part of an ongoing program by the automaker to support testing throughout the country. Overall, Hyundai has donated $4 million to help with testing at 21 institutions and provided kits to cover 50,000 tests.\n\n“Our hearts are with the people of Detroit right now and it’s heartbreaking what’s happened and we wish them a quick and speedy recovery,” said Zafar Brooks, director of corporate social responsibility and diversity and inclusion for Hyundai Motor America “We want them to know that Hyundai is a partner that’s standing on their side.”\n\nDuggan said about 1,000 people per day will be tested there beginning Monday.\n\nThe city also is among the first in the country to secure rapid testing equipment from Illinois-based Abbott Laboratories. Those kits have allowed for police, fire and other essential workers to be quickly screened for the virus daily.\n\nMore: Group calls for Detroit nursing home to do more to protect workers\n\nDuggan said 50% of all the 15-minute test kits will now be directed to nursing homes and homeless individuals.\n\n\"We have to protect the folks that can't protect themselves,\" he said.\n\nSo far, 13 homeless individuals in Detroit have confirmed cases of the virus and the infection has killed 11 people in city nursing homes, the mayor said.\n\nDue to the state-imposed shutdown of nonessential businesses, Detroit has suffered losses in its top revenue sources — casino and income tax — which have contributed to a $100 million deficit in the current fiscal year. The mayor has said that the predicament will mean \"painful cuts.\"\n\nDuggan on Wednesday pointed to the city's rainy day fund as a help amid the crisis and said \"we will not run a deficit at the end of the day.\"\n\nDetroit and Wayne County officials have said they are evaluating the potential of hazard pay for front-line workers. The mayor said he's lobbying the federal government for funding and cited efforts by Sen. Gary Peters, who is pushing a proposal to give certain essential workers a pay boost during the pandemic."

"Two years ago while we were at Colter Bay in the Tetons, we drove up to Yellowstone on two different days. These ended up being all day drives, maybe 150 miles each and ten hours or more. (This might have been the beginning of thinking about a different toad) Yellowstone is huge, most of the junctions are 30 to 40 miles apart. We saw most of the tourist things in the southern half of the park but didn’t get up to Mammoth Hot Springs or Tower. We checked out every campground we went by where there were no restrictive length limits. Madison Campground on the west side was the nicest of the ones we saw. It is on the Madison River, prime fishing. There are no lodges, no grocery stores, no laundry, no gift shops, no gas stations and no places where tour busses stop. Just campers and fishing people. Perfect. $13.17 per night with our geezer pass. You can get reservations at this campground, in fact you must. It was full every day for the week we were there. No electric, water or waste hookups. We were on our own. Generators are OK from 8AM to 8PM. We have 105 gallons of water capacity and 165 gallons of waste capacity so with full water and empty waste tanks we are good for 10 days or more. And 900 watts of solar panels on the roof.\n\nWe left Gros Ventre and headed north through Grand Teton NP towards the southern entrance to Yellowstone. It is about 45 miles to the northern end of the Tetons, then about 10-12 miles along the John D Rockefeller Jr. Memorial Parkway to Yellowstone.",
null,
"The road around the western side of Yellowstone goes by Lewis Lake and a very nice campground for smaller RVs and tents. Then it goes by the west end of Yellowstone Lake (The West Thumb) and on past Old Faithful. If you want to see crowds be sure to stop here. And then on to Madison. On the way we went over one pass and crossed the Continental Divide three times and followed the Firehole Canyon down to Madison.",
null,
"When you make reservations at Madison you have to tell them how long everything is when it is all connected. The coach plus the tow bar plus the length of the toad. Many of the campgrounds have these side loop pull through sites. They are sort of along side of the main one way drive through the campground. There are still plenty of shorter back in sites and some of the side loops that are much shorter. But there are many sites here big enough for 45′ coaches and many more big enough for us.\n\nThere was quite a bit of open space on the other side of the coach so we felt quite uncrowded.\n\nThe Madison River is just down the hill surrounded by a wide grassy area. Early morning visitors (people and animals) include elk and deer, lots of geese, an occasional swan. I looked carefully on the other side of the river at the edge of the trees for a bear but never saw one.",
null,
"The fishing people are out most of the day. Where they are changes during the day depending on where the sun is. In the warmest part of the day they are on the east side of this part of the river’s curve. The water is pretty cold but it doesn’t stop many people from going in for a dip or at least a wade especially in the later afternoon. There are small areas of sand along the side but the river is mostly a rocky bottom.",
null,
"The river changes at every turn. Small and bigger islands emerge, channels split off and merge again a bit downstream. The meadows spread wide and then disappear. The tree line gets much closer and then retreats.\n\nIn 1988 there was a huge fire in Yellowstone, almost 300,000 acres were burned. It is quite amazing how much has recovered and regrown. And now a new attack is apparent. The pine beetle is killing trees at an alarming rate. It is not that this is an outside invasion, the beetles have been here all along and they have been killing trees for a very long time. But only a few and scattered here and there, mostly older trees. But every winter the very cold temps in Yellowstone killed off most of the beetles keeping them and the damage they do in check. And even though it is still cold in the winter it is warming and many more beetles are managing to survive. Then they reproduce and in the summer there are now vastly more beetles and more damage. Instead of a hillside of burned trees the mountain sides are now covered with pine trees, dead or dying, covered with red needles waiting to drop. And all the more ready for another fire.\n\nSince the beetles are native, there is almost nothing being done to mitigate this problem. It is a natural event. What will be replacing the pine trees will be aspen trees which do better in a slightly warmer environment. Just as Yellowstone looked much different after the 1988 fire and then recovered thirty years later it will look different again in another thirty years.\n\nWe drove into West Yellowstone one morning for a look-see. It is fourteen miles west of Madison. There was a couple mile backup of traffic heading west due to an elk and calves along the side of the road. We went by a trailhead to Harlequin Lake a couple miles up in the mountains. It was one of the destinations on our list of things to do. As we got closer to West Yellowstone, the western entrance to the park, we could see three or four lanes of traffic backed up at the entrance station and backed up all the way through town. No left turns. We found a place to park and walked around for a while. Lots and lots of motels and resorts. There are a couple large RV parks. They were nice, paved, curbs, watered grass and a few trees. And $70 or more per night. And then an hour more wait to get into the park in the morning. Not what we wanted.\n\nWe drove about five miles north of West Yellowstone to Bakers Hole Campground, a Forest Service campground, with about 75 camp site, 30 with electric hookups. It was nice, first come first served, but late in the morning it was not full.\n\nWe had a nice breakfast, went to a grocery store and headed back. By noon the long lines entering the park were gone. And on the way back the elk and calves were still there but no gawkers.\n\nHarlequin Lake is a couple miles in from the trailhead just a few miles west of Madison. The trail looks to be a well used one and rises through areas of new growth trees. This area was burned in 1988 so these trees are almost thirty years old and many were less than 10 ft tall. And these trees were growing up through the long dead fallen trees from 1988. This fire burned through most areas quickly, enough to kill the trees but in most areas not hot enough or long enough to actually burn the trees down. The scorched, still standing dead trees are left to fall as they might under the winter snows or a strong wind.",
null,
"There were several layers of trees fallen every which way. More fuel for another fire. An impenetrable trap for wildlife. But still new trees were coming up through every space possible.",
null,
"On this hillside heading for the lake a sole surviving fire remnant stood. You can see how big the trees must have been. Most of this old forest was mature, maybe 80-100 years old. Now a new forest will grow up and much of it reaching maturity about the same time. Fire is a natural part of the ecological cycle here. Fires that threaten structures or visitor centers or natural sites are constrained but a natural fire is let go. It seems harsh to a visitor but it is the natural order of things.\n\nWe made it to Harlequin Lake. Not a big lake, evidence of beaver activity all around the shore line but we never saw a beaver or even a hidden beaver lodge. Most of the lake is filled with water lilies which were blooming. These small lakes slowly fill in with the annual remnants of the water lillies – becoming shallower and more muddy bottomed. Eventually they become a marsh and then a meadow.",
null,
"A very pleasant place to sit and watch ducks and geese and birds and almost no one else. Together, the best place to be."

"Companies and people in the Asheville area and across the South are now able to have all of their professional video and photo needs created and maintained on social media by one company. The company, Brother Blue Studio, opens its doors this month.\n\nOn May 1st 2005, Stephen suffered a head injury and thankfully woke up from his coma thirteen days later. His uplifting story made the cover of the Asheville Citizen-Times, and that marked the start of his road to overcoming nearly impossible challenges and coming out a stronger person. After waking up, Stephen no longer desired to be a lawyer. He set his eyes on a craft he soon fell in love with; creating pictures. Whether they’re moving or still, he was determined to make them. It took a tremendous effort and years of persistence to overcome those troubles which directed him to be the person he is today. From that experience, he realized that nothing would ever come easy, and he had to work harder and longer to make his dream become a reality. Then, it was time to apply to colleges, and he received two full rides to well-known mechanical engineering schools. Stephen had no desire to be an engineer. He wanted to make motion pictures. After most film schools had stopped accepting applications, he applied and was accepted to the Savannah College of Art and Design. Freshman year, he started working on film sets every weekend and never stopped.\n\nAt 19, he produced an award-winning short film. At 20, he worked as Client Management on Dierks Bentley’s music video “5-1-5-0.” At 21, he worked in Los Angeles, was up for two “Best Narrative Film” awards, and he was offered a job to produce television for a well-known company in Los Angeles. Even though the job offer was “an offer that film students dream of getting,” Los Angeles was never home to him; Asheville was. He had this idea that if he learned how successful production companies operate by working for them and studying how they function, he would be able to create a company that encompassed all of their positive elements without any of their flaws. After being the Unit Production Manager on his first feature film and working for companies like Bose, The VIA Agency, VISA and the NFL, it was time for him to come home and start his dream company, Brother Blue Studio. Stephen meticulously studied every company he worked with and used those conglomerated observations as the foundation for operations at Brother Blue Studio.\n\nAfter vanquishing many strenuous obstacles, Stephen has reached a point where he can accomplish his biggest life goal; founding his dream company. Whether it’s a business like Bose, a local band or promotional material for a nonprofit, Brother Blue Studio will work with everyone. Stephen made it a point for his company to never embody any kind of exclusivity or bias toward any client. He places a tremendous value on helping the community. Brother Blue Studio will assist any person, nonprofit or local company that is working to improve and enrich the Asheville community. Stephen has taken and continues to take precautionary steps to avoid certain destructive elements that hinder a production company and social media business. With Stephen’s work ethic, his evolved business structure and his personal values, he is proud to announce Brother Blue Studio’s opening.\n\nBrother Blue Studio is a videography and photography studio that manages the motion pictures and stills they create on all of their client’s social media. The company focuses on innovation and evolving with the cutting edge of technology. They utilize their foundation in Hollywood-style filmmaking to push the creative limits and craft powerful media. Their mission is to deliver visually-stimulating work that highlights strengths and delivers a powerful message. Having the best possible service and end-product is what clients can expect when working with Brother Blue Studio, and their name will always be their quality guarantee.\n\nStephen’s dream company, Brother Blue Studio, is founded on four principles: to always work the hardest to create the best, to turn ideas into actions, to improve the local community and to evolve at all times.",

"It's time for another edition of Alex J. Cavanaugh's Insecure Writer's Support Group. I was hoping to come up with something new and exciting for this month, but instead I decided on something that's worn out and comfortable. Be sure to visit the talented IWSG bloggers who are always available to lend a helping hand, but if you decide to stick around anyway, here's a little ditty from 2013:\n\nBetween working long hours, taking care of the home, and raising a family, many writers struggle to find time to write. There are so many obstacles that get in the way. As an empty nester, I should have less distractions than most people, though that's not always the case.\nWith our boys home for winter break, I was busy sorting out everyone's laundry. The other day when I was carrying their clothes from the laundry room up to their closets, I also put my husband's freshly washed jeans away. I specifically put them off to the side, so he could methodically arrange them in his closet.\nThe following night he told me that he couldn't find them. We were on our way to dinner, so I said that I'd help him look for them when we got home. Later I began searching for his pants. I checked all of the boys closets, as well as the laundry room. Still frustrated, I plowed through the bag that was put aside for the cleaners. A task that should've only taken a few minutes, was escalating into a major excavation. I couldn't stop now, and my husband was so torn up about it that he passed out on the couch.\n\nThe next step was to search the boys' hampers. Maybe someone threw them in there by mistake. Even though I had just done laundry a few days ago, they both were completely full. I sifted through socks that may have been remnants from the twentieth century, and I still had no luck.\nI finally had no choice but to go back into my husband's closet. Of course I found them immediately. By this time it was almost 2 a.m., and my husband woke up when our older son came home. Expecting gratitude, my husband had a different reaction after seeing his long lost jeans, \"Oh those aren't the jeans I was talking about. They're only a size thirty four. They won't fit.\"\nI saw him wearing the jeans just a few days earlier. I washed the jeans, and even put them away, but somehow someone else had snuck into his closet to trade his jeans for an identical smaller pair. I calmly told Cinderfella to try on his jeans, while I called in our son as a witness.\n\nAs the suspense was building, I explained how denim stretches to conform to your body. I also mentioned that you can't only go by waist size, because cut is an important factor. He had a huge smile on his face, as he buttoned his jeans. \"I really do fit into a size thirty four.\"\n\nThen I pointed out how most of him fit into his jeans. My son laughed, and quickly closed the door in his room, so I wouldn't keep him up any longer. Though I knew that they were the right size, I was not thrilled to have wasted hours of valuable writing time. After this incident, they'll probably send me away to a quiet little place where I'll have nothing but time to write.\n\nPostscript: At present day, my husband now fits into our son's size 33 hand-me-down jeans. Though he's about four inches shorter than our son, they're a perfect fit. He does some of his best shopping in our boys' closets, but they're not conveniently located across the hall from us anymore."

My advice is to watch for potential selling opportunities if you see the breakout of the neckline. The downward projection for this pattern is set at the price of $9.200."

"The archived broadcast of the Shawnee Mission School District's May board meeting was pulled by YouTube after being flagged for containing \"medical misinformation,\" related to claims about masks during the meeting's public comment period. The board is now considering a policy change that would lead to public comments not being aired on YouTube. Image screenshot captured by Abigail Censky.\n\n“Think of it this way,” said Thompson. “I’m about six feet tall. Saying that this mask is going to block the virus is like saying I can’t walk through a doorway 6,000 feet tall and 2,000 feet wide.”\n\nHis claims about masks weren’t true.\n\nThe U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says wearing face masks does prevent the spread of COVID-19.\n\nYouTube — which the school board uses to stream its meetings — deemed statements from Thompson and other speakers so dangerous that the tech giant pulled the entire meeting off its platform for spreading medical misinformation.\n\nThat leaves the district in a quandary. Does it strip out the public comment portion of its streamed meetings to avoid a YouTube ban? Or would that effectively censor any criticism of the school board?\n\nIt’s tough because Shawnee Mission has grown dependent on YouTube.\n\n“It’s accessible. It’s easy to use. So, it’s a great platform,” said Shawnee Mission spokesperson David Smith. “But we absolutely have to be concerned because we don’t want to lose the ability to use that platform.”\n\nIn the age of COVID-19 and social media, streaming public meetings offers a convenient way to let residents track critical debates on decisions about their taxes, their children and their communities.\n\nAt the same time, Big Tech is grappling with how to choke-out viral misinformation. But conversations at the meetings of city councils, school boards and other parts of local government can be riddled with conspiracies and half-truths without fact checkers to keep the record straight.\n\nShortly after last month’s SMSD board meeting, a warning popped up on the Shawnee Mission School District’s webpage that more violations of YouTube’s policies aimed at fighting disinformation might take meetings offline.\n\nThe district wouldn’t be able to upload, post, or live stream for one week. YouTube community guidelines state after three strikes in a 90-day period, an account can be terminated.\n\nThat could mean a lot of trouble for the district, say district officials.\n\nSMSD has 10 years of videos archived on the platform, and it uses benefits like live streaming and automatic closed captioning for free. The cost of moving to another platform would start at $20,000, Smith said.\n\nIn a statement, YouTube spokesperson Elena Hernandez said, “We apply our policies equally, regardless of the speaker or setting of the video.”\n\nYouTube says that in some cases videos with medical misinformation are allowed to stay on the platform if they have an audio or visual disclaimer refuting the false claims or sharing CDC guidelines about the effectiveness of masks to prevent COVID-19.\n\nIf an account holder disagrees with YouTube’s decision, they can appeal.\n\nKatie Paul, director of the industry watchdog Tech Transparency Project, said the misinformation policy is fine. But her group is critical more broadly of how Big Tech moderates content.\n\n“That is to rely on the cheapest option, which is (artificial intelligence),” said Paul. “But AI is not perfect, and it’s effective in some cases, but takes down incorrect content.”\n\nShe argued that companies like YouTube need to rely less on their algorithms to sort out content, and spend more heavily on workers who can pick up on the subtleties that computer programs can’t catch.\n\nYouTube did not respond to questions about the role of artificial intelligence in flagging the Shawnee Mission video.\n\nBut Paul said the application of the policy has been uneven at best, and is “ultimately not removing the content that’s most egregious and at the same time removing content that should remain on the platform.”\n\n“The whole purpose of the public comment portion of the meeting is to allow those whose tax dollars fund the operation of the school to have a say,” Thompson told the Shawnee Mission Post in an email last month after the video was removed. “And it allows parents a course of action if they disagree with the board’s decisions. The 1st Amendment of the U.S. Constitution doesn’t mention ‘fact checkers’ as being the gateway to free speech.”\n\nA change being considered\n\nNow the SMSD board is looking for a way forward.\n\nAt a board workshop earlier this month, some board members made the case for a policy change that would extract public comment from the streamed meeting entirely.\n\nPeople could still show up and speak before the board, but that portion of the meeting (which would technically be a separate meeting under a revised policy being considered) wouldn’t be uploaded to YouTube.\n\nBoard member Jamie Borgman argued public comment was how teachers made their voices heard during fraught union contract negotiations, and how Shawnee Tribe Chief Ben Barnes spoke out against some schools’ now-retired mascots that played off Native American stereotypes.\n\n“We’re putting all of our eggs in this YouTube basket,” said Borgman. “We want to ditch public comment because we’re afraid our meetings are going to get pulled from YouTube, but I think we need to look bigger.”\n\nShe’s advocating that the district move to a third party platform to stream its meetings. But that would come with a price and could mean losing the space to archive 10 years of district videos, along with leaving the ubiquitous social media channel.\n\nAt the June workshop, board members were split on whether to stay with YouTube or leave. They’ll likely broach the issue again at the regular board meeting on Monday, June 28, and again in July.\n\n“I do not want to see us let a small group of people with some medical misinformation deprive our entire community of seeing what kind of comments are coming before this board,” said board member Jessica Hembree. “That’s important.”\n\nAbigail Censky is the political reporter for the Kansas News Service.

"“A love letter to Harlem and hope. I Rise is smart and funny and full of heart.*”\n\nFourteen-year-old Ayo who has to decide whether to take on her mother’s activist role when her mom is shot by police. As she tries to find answers, Ayo looks to the wisdom of her ancestors and her Harlem community for guidance.\n\nAyo's mother founded the biggest civil rights movement to hit New York City in decades. It’s called ‘See Us’ and it tackles police brutality and racial profiling in Harlem. Ayo has spent her entire life being an activist and now, she wants out. She wants to get her first real kiss, have a boyfriend, and just be a normal teen.\n\nWhen her mom is put into a coma after a riot breaks out between protesters and police, protestors want Ayo to become the face of See Us and fight for justice for her mother who can no longer fight for herself. While she deals with her grief and anger, Ayo must also discover if she has the strength to take over where her mother left off.\n\nThis impactful and unforgettable novel takes on the important issues of inequality, systemic racism, police violence, and social justice.\n\nMarie Arnold was born in Port-Au-Prince, Haiti and came to America at the age of seven. She grew up in Brooklyn, New York alongside her extended family. Marie enjoys creating stories full of adventure, and wonder, which center on girls of color. When she’s not writing, she’s adding to her insanely long Netflix queue and trying not to order pizza. She lives in Los Angeles, CA. She is the author of The Year I Flew Away and I Rise.\n\nFrom the first line to the last, this novel sings. It's a poetic and powerful anthem of justice. A love letter to Harlem and hope. I Rise is smart and funny and full of heart. — Kwame Alexander, New York Times best-selling author\n\n\"Arnold (The Year I Flew Away) depicts even the narrative’s most painful moments with compassionate prose, exploring Ayo’s struggles to navigate her newfound responsibilities, her frustration with an unjust system, and her mourning of her quickly vanishing childhood with nuance and heart. A lively, complex cast and their unignorable plea for safety, respect, and equality rounds out this potent novel.\" — Publishers Weekly (starred review)\n\n\"Arnold threads Black history, culture, and current events into her narrative, giving the reader a firsthand view of what it means to be young and Black in New York City today through Ayo’s experiences. A powerful and very engaging story of a strong, determined young lady and a call for social justice and understanding.\" — School Library Journal (starred review)\n\nThe way Arnold poses the question of how much one must “pay for the crime of living while Black” will prompt both Black and non-Black readers to ask difficult questions of themselves and society at large. This is simultaneously an intimate story with rich character development and a call to action. A powerful novel about systemic racism that challenges readers. — Kirkus Reviews\n\nArnold’s powerful story unfolds the complexities of the life of a Black child in America and how their Blackness is an aspect of their character permanently stitched into their skin. This book is rich with Black history and truth, and Arnold aptly proves the point that there are indeed two Americas. A powerful read for justice-minded teens. — ALA Booklist\n\n\"This novel should appeal to readers who enjoyed Thomas’s The Hate U Give, Stone’s Dear Martin, and Watson’s Love Is a Revolution. References to famous Harlem figures such as James Baldwin, Countee Cullen, Arthur Mitchell, and Zora Neale Hurston allow for deeper discussions of the history of Harlem as a place for Black intellectual thought and art.\" — Horn Book Magazine"

"For starters, this isn’t an official Bajaj prototype but given that the KTM 390 Duke already gets a TFT display, we might also see one on the Dominar 400. But that’s some time away. Meanwhile, Aurangabad-based Varroc Group showcased a prototype TFT screen for the Dominar 400 at the 2018 Auto Expo Components Show at Pragati Maidan, New Delhi and it looks quite desirable.\n\nApart from the regular ride related information, the prototype TFT screen is designed to display smartphone related features such as music and navigation. Similar to the KTM 390 Duke, this prototype display should also display the caller information and an option to “Answer” or “Reject” phone calls using the switchgear. The dual-tone finish with brushed aluminium borders looks pretty solid in the photographs although we could not see the setup in person as we were busy bringing you all the LIVE updates from the 2018 Auto Expo.",

"We stumbled upon these images on the Bajaj Dominar Owners group on Facebook.\n\nThe TFT display, as aforementioned is still in prototype stage so if you were planning to buy one, you’d probably have to wait for quite some time. Will Bajaj introduce a TFT display on the Dominar 400? There are NO plans at the moment but given that we’re a bunch of optimistic folks, we hope to see one in the next generation models."

"James Jaillet\nSep 18, 2019\nRead our 2013 feature series on the California Air Resources Boards Truck and Bus Rule via this link.\n\nThe California legislature last week stamped approval on a sweeping legislative package that could dramatically alter the landscape for leased and independent owner-operators in the state, likely leaving such truckers who work in California with tough decisions about the future of their operation.\n\nLeased owner-operators who live in California or operate frequently there could in time be forced to switch carriers. Or they may have to make a decision to transition to being either an employee of a carrier or an independent owner-operator with authority, should they wish to continue working in California.\n\nA.B. 5 codifies into state law the so-called ABC test for determining whether a worker is an employee or a contractor. The test was validated as appropriate in California last year by the state’s Supreme Court in the case of Dynamex vs. Superior Court.\n\nMost difficult for trucking, the B-prong of the ABC test prevents employers from contracting with workers that perform the same work as the business itself. That effectively means carriers can no longer lease owner-operators and their equipment to haul freight under traditional independent contractor agreements.\n\nCalifornia Gov. Gavin Newsom signed the bill Wednesday, and the law will take effect Jan. 1. Beyond trucking, A.B. 5 could impact millions of workers in the state, including drivers for ride-sharers Uber and Lyft, software coders, hair dressers, nurses, construction workers, dog walkers and even exotic dancers, among other workers.\n\nAttorney Greg Feary, partner of the firm Scopelitis, Garvin, Light, Hanson and Feary, says owner-operators who work in California — especially those who live in the state — need to ask their motor carriers whether they will change their model in light of the new law and then make decisions accordingly.\n\nCarriers, for instance, could choose to wait on decisions in pending court cases at the federal 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, which could rule that federal law supersedes California’s law. Such a ruling may offer relief from A.B. 5 and likely would mitigate its effects on owner-operator leasing by carriers.\n\nJason Geller, managing partner at the San Francisco office of the Fisher Phillips law firm, says such a “wait and see approach” could be a smart path for owner-operators intially. Carriers he’s spoken to aren’t in a rush to make changes, he says. In addition to waiting on rulings from the 9th Circuit on the issue, carriers are also holding out for potential changes to the law during the next legislative session.\n\n“Proceed cautiously from the outset,” he says. “I think a lot of companies are playing the wait and see approach. They’re not making any rash decisions immediately to reclassify drivers.”\n\nHowever, carriers are often risk-averse, Rajkovacz says, and many could choose to cut ties with owner-operators in the state to curb their potential liability.\n\nAnother approach carriers may take to navigate the law is to establish brokerages separate from their trucking operations and funnel loads to owner-operators that way, says Feary. However, those operators would need to be independent carriers operating under their own authority, rather than the typical owner-operator lessor model, in which operators work under a larger carrier’s authority.\n\nThat’s a challenging proposition, he says, given the rising costs of liability insurance for new independents and other hurdles when transitioning to operating with authority.\n\nThough the new law takes effect Jan. 1, challenges may be in the offing, given the backlash against it.\n\nThere likely will be additional legislation next year to clarify or change the law, said Shimoda. However, it’s uncertain “whether or not trucking gets a fix that works to allow independent truckers to operate” as they do today, he says.\n\nCTA will be working with legislators to try to find paths for legitimate owner-operators to continue to work in California, he says.\n\nUber and Lyft, whose business models could be upended by the law, have signaled they do not intend to comply, and instead hope to push the law to a referendum in 2020.\n\nIn addition to legislative fixes next session, courts could also intervene, says Feary, particularly as it relates to trucking. “The courts might interpret the law as it relates to interstate operations and affect its application to interstate trucking,” he says. “It’s so controversial and has so many opponents, this is one of those few laws that probably will be touched in some way, whether by the legislature changing it next year, by a referendum in the 2020 election or by the courts – or maybe all of the above.”\n\nNASTC points to safety concerns\nIn making the “leased owner-operator business model essentially illegal” for companies domiciled in the state, noted David Owen, head of the National Association of Small Trucking Companies, California “doesn’t have a clue what this will do to their safety numbers. They’re getting rid of the best business model they have as far as safety is concerned.”\n\nState lawmakers, in their concern over employer-contractor relationships, Owen suggested, really “haven’t thought this out, or they just don’t care about safety.”\n\nOOIDA an outlier on A.B. 5’s implications\nThe Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association, despite the warnings of other trade groups and attorneys about the law’s implications, has spun A.B. 5 as some what of a positive, or at least a neutral, development.\n\nIn a statement to Overdrive, OOIDA says that carriers in California have been wrongfully classifying drivers “for decades.” The group supported the legislation’s passage.\n\n“Lease-purchase schemes have plagued the industry for a long time, and there are plenty of carriers that take advantage of traditional lease agreements as well,” the group said. “However, there are equally as many truck drivers that truly are independent and we’re concerned that codifying a complex court decision [Dynamex] might go too far. Our hope is that this legislation will force motor carriers in California to rethink the way they treat drivers and either hire them as employees or restructure traditional lease agreements to give owner-operators real independence.”",

"Photos: Fire Out on X-Press Pearl as Sri Lanka Orders Tow Out to Sea\n\nA salvage crew was able to board the smoldering wreck of the containership X-Press Pearl nearly two weeks after the fire began and nine days after the vessel was abandoned. While the survey of the vessel is ongoing, the government of Sri Lanka fearing further environmental damage late today ordered that the ship should be towed out into deep water.\n\nOfficials from the Indian Navy, which assisted with the firefight, along with the Sri Lanka Ports Authority, confirmed that the fire has been extinguished and determined working with the salvage team from SMIT that a crew could go aboard the vessel today, June 1. Reports indicated that in addition to the extensive fire damage, the salvage crew determined the firefight had flooded the engine room of the vessel. Divers were also going to inspect the exterior of the hull looking for signs of fatigue. However, the authorities continue to report that no oil has leaked, although the vessel has 325 metric tons of bunker fuel aboard.",

"Sri Lanka’s Marine Environment Protection Authority has already called the incident the worst environmental disaster in the history of the country, but fears continue that the situation could be made worse if the vessel sinks. After a special meeting of government ministers, along with representatives from the navy, air force, and ports authority, Sri Lanka’s President Gotabhaya Rajapaksa issued an immediate order directing that the X-Press Pearl be moved to the deep sea further away from the coastline.\n\nShortly after the fire had begun, the government had also directed that the vessel be towed away from the anchorage, but at that time it was deemed not practical based on the fire and monsoon conditions in the area. The X-Press Pearl has remained at anchor approximately 9.5 miles outside Colombo since she arrived on May 19.\n\nSeparately, the Criminal Investigation Department sought a court order barring the vessel’s captain, chief engineer, and second engineer from leaving the country. The court ordered that the three officers must remain in Sri Lanka while the investigation is ongoing. CID Officers have already recorded statements from the three officers as well as from the vessel’s port agent, the Colombo Harbor Master, the MEPA, and others as part of the investigation into the cause of the disaster. One of the points they are exploring is when the captain first learned that chemicals were leaking from one or more of the containers.\n\nSalvage operations for the three-month-old vessel, which is believed to be a total constructive loss, are being led by the Dutch company SMIT, which sent firefighting tugs and specialized equipment from the Netherlands. A total of nine Sri Lankan ships and three Indian vessels were involved in the firefight, supported by aircraft from the Sri Lanka Air Force.",

"Many have hoped that desalination plants up and down the coast of California could produce enough water for much of California. Nope. It’s not even close. Were California to build every proposed desal plant, it would account for a mere 1% of what California needs. Plus, there’s no easy way to get that water to where it’s needed which mostly is the Sacramento Delta. Also, the Carlsbad desal plant near San Diego took fifteen years to be built, due to regulatory hurdles and NIMBY lawsuits. New plants won’t happen fast.\n\nThere is just one proposed California desal plant that will cut local surface water needs. Only one. Also, desalination is expensive, requires continual maintenance, and uses substantial amounts of electricity which – wait for it – often requires water for cooling. And forget about using solar panels on site to power it on a beach in California. The specter of acres of solar panels on a California beach would cause NIMBYs to wallpaper the project with lawsuits.\n\nThere is just one proposed desalination facility that will in fact reduce strain on a local freshwater ecosystem. The proposed California American Water plant near Monterey will directly reduce surface water withdrawals from the Carmel River. Those reduced withdrawals, however, were mandated by the state more than 20 years ago. Such mandates with direct links to meaningful improvements in stream flow should certainly be a factor in deciding whether to build a desalination plant.\n\nSeawater desalination, while can be a very small part of water supply portfolio of some of California’s coastal regions, will not be a significant part of the pie. The math is just not there.\n\nThe Coronavirus Crisis Shows Local Farming to Be an Existential Interest",

"Well last week was, depending on your point of view, either a catastrophic failure or a chance to witness the second coming of the oracle. I didn’t even look at the results last week – I just asked KMFE what she thought the results would be and took that as gospel.\n\nDid you see that? 4 Exact and 4 where the goal-difference was correct and only 1 wrong? That’s insane. The fact that I came human-last getting 7 correct results is disappointing but I put that down to being contrarian and having knowledge of other picks (accidentally) ahead of time.\n\nI had 2 of 3 bets come true so my imaginary 3 pounds is probably still worth 3 pounds so I’m going to play the same bets this week.\nBoth to score: The Far Eastlands Team at the Old Toilet 4/5\nWin to nil : That would be the Ski team away from home 7/4\nFirst to score: Theo scoring against his former team 13/2\n\nHere are the picks for this round.\n\nThe Supercomputers (who won 2 weeks ago) came last last week so some algorithm treatment is still required. Due to a glitch, SC1 continues to pick 2-1 for every game and SC3 is copying SC2. There will soon be some algorithmic updates to automate SC2 (using a 3rd party sourced input) and SC3 (using home grown non-copying-fully-original algorithms) that I think will end up with SC3 taking control of the rankings. I would show the aggregate standings but KMFE is so far ahead it’s embarrassing. I’ve recalculated using the standard BBC scoring and she would be leading the predictor game (or at least I think so don’t check).\n\nThanks for participating – this gives me a reason to care about results other than Watford – who are not having the best start. More fun banter will be available when no longer on vacation having a good time 🙂\n\nWhat is the relevance of the featured image (shown on top of post). Answers in a stamped self-addressed envelope or in comments."

"\nHow to delete your recovery key from your Microsoft account\n\nGo to this website and log in to your Microsoft account — this will be the same username and password that you use to log in to your Windows device. Once you’re in, it will show you a list of recovery keys backed up to your account.\nIf any of your Windows devices are listed, this means that Microsoft, or anyone who manages to access data in your Microsoft account, is technically able to unlock your encrypted disk, without your consent, as long as they physically have your computer. You can go ahead and delete your recovery key on this page — but you may want to back it up locally first, for example by writing it down on a piece of paper that you keep somewhere safe.\nIf you don’t see any recovery keys, then you either don’t have an encrypted disk, or Microsoft doesn’t have a copy of your recovery key. This might be the case if you’re using BitLocker and didn’t upload your recovery key when you first turned it on.\nWhen you delete your recovery key from your account on this website, Microsoft promises that it gets deleted immediately, and that copies stored on its backup drives get deleted shortly thereafter as well. “The recovery key password is deleted right away from the customer’s online profile. As the drives that are used for failover and backup are sync’d up with the latest data the keys are removed,” a Microsoft spokesperson assured me.\nIf you have sensitive data that’s stored on your laptop, in some cases it might be safer to completely stop using your old encryption key and generate a new one that you never send to Microsoft. This way you can be entirely sure that the copy that used to be on Microsoft’s server hasn’t already been compromised.\n\nGenerate a new encryption key without giving a copy to Microsoft\n\nIn order to generate a new disk encryption key, this time without giving a copy to Microsoft, you need decrypt your whole hard disk and then re-encrypt it, but this time in such a way that you’ll actually get asked how you want to backup your recovery key.\nThis is only possible if you have Windows Pro or Enterprise. Unfortunately, the only thing you can do if you have the Home edition is upgrade to a more expensive edition or use non-Microsoft disk encryption software, such as BestCrypt, which you have to pay for. You may also be able to get open source encryption software like VeraCrypt working, but sadly the open source options for full disk encryption in Windows don’t currently work well with modern PC hardware (as touched on here).\nGo to Start, type “bitlocker,” and click “Manage BitLocker” to open BitLocker Drive Encryption settings.",
null,
"From here, click “Turn off BitLocker.” It will warn you that your disk will get decrypted and that it may take some time. Go ahead and continue. You can use your computer while it’s decrypting.",
null,
"After your disk is finished decrypting, you need to turn BitLocker back on. Back in the BitLocker Drive Encryption settings, click “Turn on BitLocker.”",
null,
"It will check to see if your computer supports BitLocker, and then it will ask you how you want to backup your recovery key. It sure would be nice if it asked you this when you first set up your computer.",
null,
"If you choose to save it to a file, it will make you save it onto a disk that you’re not currently encrypting, such as a USB stick. Or you can choose to print it and keep a hard copy. You must choose one of them to continue, but make sure you don’t choose “Save to your Microsoft account.”\nOn the next page it will ask you if you want to encrypt used disk space only (faster) or encrypt your entire disk including empty space (slower). If you want to be on the safe side, choose the latter. Then on the next page it will ask you if you wish to run the BitLocker system check, which you should probably do.\nFinally, it will make you reboot your computer.\nWhen you boot back up your hard disk will be encrypting in the background. At this point you can check your Microsoft account again to see if Windows uploaded your recovery key – it shouldn’t have.",
null,
"Now just wait for your disk to finish encrypting. Congratulations: Your disk is encrypted and Microsoft no longer has the ability to unlock it."

"Put on by the New Mexico Brewer’s Guild the WinterBrew Fest has become one of my absolute favorites. I mean there are tons of Beer Fests in New Mexico, and it’s hard to say sometimes how they differ from one another, because frankly they quite often don’t. I mean it’s a pretty basic format. A bunch of breweries, you get a cup to fill with samples, you taste the beer, then repeat, a lot. I mean sometimes there are limits and sometimes you can buy pints and sometimes you do because you love a beer so much. A that’s what brew fests are about, discovery.\n\nWell first off, Winter Brew is put on by the New Mexico Brewer’s Guild. This non profit organization is simply dedicated to the promotion and development of the craft beer scene so every New Mexican brewery gets a fair shake. It’s definitely one of the most diverse brew fests I’ve been to. This year there are eighteen breweries, from all over the state. Just to name a few: Rowley Farmhouse Ales, Chili Line Brewing Co., Second Street Brewery, Santa Fe Brewing Company, Duel Brewing, Blue Corn Brewery, Bathtub Row Brewing Co-op, and yours truly will be there. Last year one of my personal surprise favorites was Spotted Dog out of Las Cruces.\n\nSecondly, the location rocks. I mean Santa Fe in general is pretty alright, but the Santa Fe Farmers Market Pavilion at the Rail Yards is a sweet spot. It’s spacious, industrial, well kept, and indoors. So you’re not freezing your ass off or just sweating out the beer. The place does get a little packed but there’s enough room for you to roam with your sample glass. It’s twenty five dollars, but that gets you a pint glass, unlimited samples, and a FREE PINT. Definitely, buy your tickets in advance because they sold out last year. There are also some great local food vendors who just kill it. I mean it may be the beer talking but I had a fantastic burger there last year.\n\nLastly, I like the fact that it’s in the Winter. I feel like the summer is just over saturated with brew fests. Especially, in the Albuquerque area. It’s timing is perfect. Right in the middle of this winter brew fest drought.\n\nWe’ll be there with bells on. And you should definitely give this event a shot if you don’t have anything going on this Friday the 13th. You can buy your tickets at either of our locations or here."

"A Note from the Production Team\n\n“Adultery, corruption, treachery, greed, exploitation… Chicago!”, this musical invites you right in, as though drawn in by a promise of juicy gossip, witness to the misdeeds of others. Will those misdeeds be punished? Actually, no. Of all the cellblock tango prisoners, Hunyak is the only one who’s innocent, and yet the only one found guilty, and punished. Her trial isn’t even shown, as if justice is an afterthought. Billy Flynn gets away with obvious lying and manipulation of the justice system. And think about the Roxie and Velma, the heroes, right? Are they? Roxie has an affair with Fred, kills him, tries to get her husband to take the wrap, dumps him when he doesn’t stick to the script, hires the best sleazy lawyer, who coaches her to lie to get off, and then, then, in a disturbing twist, the very fact that Roxie is a murderer becomes promotional material for her career. That same plotline is recapitulated for Velma, explicitly, and for each of the cell block girls by suggestion (except Hunyak). The straight read of Chicago is nearly completely upside down: the characters in Chicago who succeed most are those who are the most immoral.\n\nSo, we’ve been asked, how is this appropriate for youth Community Theater? Isn’t it sending the wrong message? The short answer is no: Chicago is not sending the wrong message, nor is it sanctioning immoral behavior. It’s exactly the opposite. What redeems Chicago is satire. The entire work is satirical. As teenagers, our cast is naturally familiar with satire: the use of humor, irony, hyperbole, and ridicule in order to criticize. Satire is often aimed at challenging subjects, drawing attention to them, exposing problems, and, in so doing, promoting change.\n\nChicago is filled with satire, where lyrics, even titles, of songs are obvious lies: “they both reached for the gun”, “my baby and me”, “all I need is love”, “he had it coming”. Much of Chicago’s satire is affected through hyperbole, exaggeration that stretches truth past the break point. As a literary device, hyperbole is when ideas, plot lines, characters, or metaphors are so over the top that they call attention to themselves as unbelievable. They make us notice. The hyperbole (how many times do they say, “they both reached for the gun?”) makes the satire obvious. There is no subtlety.\n\nSatire is even in the music: the musical circus themes in Razzle Dazzle underscore the satirical message, where arbitration of justice isn’t by an appeal to the truth, but rather occurs through entertainment – show, glitz, and illusion. In “Funny Honey”, Roxie sings her appreciation for Amos with a catchy, salon-style blues melody, easy and pleasing. After the key moment when Amos realizes the truth, Roxie’s words change: now, she “can’t stand that sap”, and her tone changes, too. But, what happens to the music? Does it get agitated and angry, like Roxie? Does it switch to a minor key, a darker melody, an angry rhythm? Nope, nothing. It’s the same, easy tune. That is satirical, because it couples what we understood to be the sound of love and devotion with words of betrayal and anger, and with Roxie’s plot to cover up the murder. The music helps undermine the veneer of adoration at the beginning to reveal just how sinister is Roxie’s manipulation.\n\nBob Fosse, who created the Broadway version of Chicago, was famous for his use of satire to criticize. Fosse was disgusted by the Watergate scandal, by the legal system where it seems money can buy an acquittal, and how the media turns criminals into celebrities. Chicago is a great example of his approach: the entire story becomes the object of satirical criticism.\n\nArt works when it makes us think, sometimes about difficult subjects, like justice, and sometimes it does so by deliberately making us uncomfortable. What happens to Roxie and Velma is disturbing, because their success comes about through corruption and immorality. A naïve viewer might expect an ending that delivers justice. Instead, the viewer is invited to recognize the upside-down and unreal world of Chicago as a satirical lens into our own. The literary devices used in Chicago express the moral perspective of the artists who created it, and the hyperbolic satire establishes that perspective powerfully and unambiguously for the viewer. In this way, it’s a great work for youth Community Theater.\n\nThe production team would like to especially thank our student assistants, who helped with directing and choreography: Rosie Ryan, Nona Hungate, and Avi Fitch.\n\nWe hope you all enjoy the show!"

"Insulate Britain has warned it could restart its road-blocking protests as early as Monday, after a pause in its campaign.\n\nThe climate group has infuriated motorists with by sitting on the M25 and other major roads – despite the risk of its members being jailed or fined.\n\nIt had paused its ‘campaign of civil resistance’, but that interlude had been due to end on October 25.\n\nAnd a spokesman, who would not give details of what further action would be taken on Monday, said ‘there are things happening’ that would target morning rush-hour traffic.\n\nAngry drivers often confronted the protesters and attempted to drag them away during the five-weeks of road sit-ins which were suspended earlier this month.\n\nThere were also safety concerns about potential injuries, which led the then-leader of the Green Party to condemn the demonstrations, in an exclusive interview with Metro.co.uk.\n\nThe Metropolitan Police now says it has an appropriate policing plan in place and will respond accordingly to any new protests.\n\nInjunctions have been imposed on the protesters in an effort to stop the disruption and activists who have broken the legal order are now a facing court summons along with and possible imprisonment or an unlimited fine, National Highways said.\n\nAn Insulate Britain spokesman said: ‘I don’t know why they have decided to use court injunctions.\n\n‘We will be back to continue until the Government give us a meaningful statement that we can trust and then we will be off the roads immediately, other than that the injunctions or the threats of prison don’t (change) anything.’\n\nThe organisation wants the Government to insulate all UK homes by 2030 to cut carbon emissions.\n\nIt has blocked roads on 14 days over the five weeks to October 14, with activists often gluing their hands to the carriageway to increase the amount of time it takes police to remove them.\n\nHundreds of arrests were made, with some activists people detained several times.\n\nOn the prospect that the disruptive protests are losing public support, the campaign spokesman said: ‘It is becoming a binary decision whether people are resisting the facilitation of the destruction of their country, their families, their communities and everything they hold dear or whether they are going to go into resistance against it.\n\n‘What we are saying now is that the public need to join us on the roads because the Government are basically committing treason.’\n\nA Department for Transport spokesman said: ‘Insulate Britain’s actions are dangerous and disruptive, and we urge them to call off their reckless campaign for good.\n\n‘National Highways is now taking the first group of activists from Insulate Britain to court, for breaching injunctions by blocking the M25.\n\n‘We will continue working with the police to bring those who carried out dangerous and disruptive action to justice.’\n\nHe continued: ‘Those activists will now receive a court summons and could face imprisonment and/or an unlimited fine.\n\n‘Timings are now in the hands of the court but we expect hearings will take place as soon as possible.’"

"Enter Set It Up, a Netflix original movie that Netflix has probably already recommended to you if you watch sitcoms on its platform. I’m here to second that recommendation. It’s not a great movie, but it’s a fun, romantic comedy that is very happy to be one. The conventions are all in place: it takes place in New York City, and our star-crossed lovers work for vague, unnamed media companies. The girl, Harper, works as a Girl Friday for the editor of a sports news website. The guy, Charlie, also works as a personal secretary for, hmm, I can’t remember what his boss does. It doesn’t matter! This movie is not making any important observations about the modern day workplace and that’s okay.\n\nHarper and Charlie are part of the beleaguered assistant class. They meet in an elevator when Harper is desperately trying to secure dinner for her boss — or is it the other way around? Maybe Charlie is trying to get a dinner for his boss? I can’t remember. Point is, they meet cute. But of course they don’t realize that they are meant for each other. Instead, they decide to set up their bosses–or, as Harper puts it, “We’ll Cyrano them!” Their reasoning is that if their bosses start dating and fall in love, then they’ll stop working late. Harper wants more free time so she can try her hand at writing and reporting instead of ordering meals; Charlie wants more free time to spend with his supermodel girlfriend who treats him like old trash.\n\nThat’s as far as I’ll go into spoiler territory, but if you’ve seen a romantic comedy, you can spoil the whole movie for yourself with the mildest of guesswork. The one meta element of this movie might be the title itself, which might not only refer to Harper and Charlie’s plan, but also to the writer (Katie Silberman) and director (Claire Scanlon), who tee up the premise, then hit everything to par. (That might be a nonsensical metaphor. I don’t know much about golf, but wanted to use something sporty, because this movie has a lot of sports references.)\n\nLucy Liu and Taye Diggs play Harper and Charlie’s hard-driving bosses — two stars who, when I recommended this movie to a group of friends, brought swoons and questions of Where have they been? Harper is played by a very charming Zoe Deutch, and Charlie by Glen Powell, who seemed, at times, to be subbing in for that actor who always plays Nice Midwestern Guy. You know I mean. He was in Obvious Child, Girls, The Office . . . I just looked him up: Jake Lacy. Glen Powell and Jake Lacy should be in a movie together, and one should be the boyfriend of the lead, while the other is the ex-boyfriend. I don’t know what the plot of that movie is. (Related, sort of: Lucy Liu and Taye Diggs are slated to work together again in an upcoming feature, Stage Mother.)\n\nI only gave this movie two and a half stars on Letterboxd, which I mention not because I put huge stock in star ratings, but because it can sometimes help to clarify my recommendation. For me, 2.5 stars means that you’ll probably like the movie if you like its genre or if you’re a fan of one of the stars. I throw a lot of movies into this category, including the majority of Jessica Chastain’s movies. I also give a lot of movies 2.5 stars when they contain distinctive elements that don’t quite coalesce. Set It Up does come together, and each scene bounces quite nicely to the next, but it doesn’t have a lot of distinctive elements. It’s perfect for Netflix, because it doesn’t need a big screen, and it’s just the kind of thing you want to watch on a weeknight after a long day, when you need a break from reality — and prestige TV."

"Due to the use for the first time of fighter flares dropped by German aircraft to mark the route of the bombers the German night-fighters made many attacks on the bomb run. This resulted in huge losses to the allies with 47 aircraft lost - 10 Lancasters, 17 Sterlings and 20 Halifaxes.\n\nThe raid was hampered by cloud and the very heavy defences around the German capital and the raid was considered as not very successful - 85 homes were destroyed, and only 1 industrial building was damaged. 66 civilians were killed and 2 German soldiers with another 109 injured - nearly 3,000 people were made homeless which resulted in Goebels ordering the evacuation of Berlin of all children and adults not engaged in war work to country areas.\n\nThe loss of allied crews on this raid amounted to: 237 Aircrew killed, 102 made PoW with 3 others evading capture.",

"My entire family (me, mom, 2 aunts, 2 uncles, and 1 cousin) all took a cruise recently to Alaska. Now that we are home and have a stable internet connection, here are long travelogues from the trip, complete with pictures.\n\nToday is our first full day on the ship, and it’s a day at sea. We don’t get to Juneau until tomorrow, I believe, but I’d have to check…and right now I’m nice and cozy sitting on the bed. LOL.\n\nMom and I got up early and had croissants in our room, and just slowly took our time getting ready. No rush, and, in fact, I actually went back to sleep for another half hour. LOL. We finally got a call from Uncle J and Aunt K that they were heading up to breakfast. Uncle Dr J had already left to go take photos, although, with the weather, there really wasn’t much outside to take pictures of. Aunt J was reading, but said she’d go up with Mom and me. A family breakfast it is!\n\nUncle Dr J took a break from taking photos to join us, and after breakfast we all wandered around the ship a bit. Got to see the tail end, and went up into the Skywalkers club to see the views from the highest public point on the ship. Beautiful. Would have been spectacular if we had seen any sun.\n\nWe found our embarkation photo. Well, sort of. Mom and I went in a different way separate from everyone, so they didn’t take our picture. I bought one of the group of Uncle J, Aunt K, Cousin A, Aunt J and Uncle Dr J. Between them they’re holding a 24-pack of Bud Light and 6 bottles of wine. We won’t talk about what’s in the “water” bottle. *grin* Let’s just agree that everyone knows it’s not really water. We also saw the photos the photographer took at dinner last night. Mom’s wasn’t very good, and Uncle J looks like he should be twirling his moustache talking about the dastardly deeds he’ll be doing later. Aunt K’s picture was beautiful, but she photographs well anyway. I picked up my picture, because it wasn’t too bad. Mom really loves it. I wish I had the time to remove my glasses.\n\nWe wandered in and out of some of the shops, and it ended with everyone going their separate ways. Cousin A went with me to one of the bar areas and I FINALLY got my first drink! The Ultimate Mai Tai. Now, I’m not big on mai tais in general, but this one is AMAZING. Too bad the server tried to kill me with nuts. LOL\n\nWe’ve made reservations to go back to the Crown Grill on the night we’re in Victoria. I’m already planning my meal. LOL And wondering if I can get 2 S’mores desserts. *grin* I bet I could.\n\nI’m doing TONS of walking on this cruise. I’m trying to not say no to something just because I’d have to walk there. Although, I AM tired of being hot and sweaty. LOL. Later this afternoon is Bingo, then back to the room to get dressed for Formal Night. We’re taking pictures. I’ve insisted.\n\nYup. That’s right. I won Bingo. $200, baybeeeee! My cousin won $400, so YAY for Team FishWithSticks! My Uncle J and Aunt K…Zippo. Uncle J says every time he plays with Cousin A, she wins and he loses. LOL. Bingo again in a few days. Maybe I’ll try my hand at Roulette tonight. I do well with Roulette.\n\nAfter Bingo was Trivia. Yeah, we sucked. Did you know a baby porcupine is called a porcupette? Who knew? Well, apparently the team behind us, because they got it right. LOL. We got 15 out of 20 right. Would have been 17 (and the winning team) if we had only listened to Uncle J. LOL. Ah, well. Next time.\n\nFormal night was tonight, so before we went in to dinner we got our pictures taken. I really hope they came out, because we all looked gooooood. Our dinner was at our “regular” dining room, Bernini. It was good. Crown Grill was better, of course, but still tonight was tasty. Most of our table had Shrimp Newburg, and it was good. I OD’d on shrimp, as I had the Shrimp Cocktail appetizer, too.\n\nThen at 9:30 at night we went back to the room where I took a picture of the sky before sunset. When I travel north I’m always amazed at how different the light is. Pretty chilly out there on the balcony, though. *grin* Especially as I was not wearing a jacket. Brrr.",

"The Wooden Mirror is an interactive installation made of 830 wood pieces and motors that moves according to an image captured by the camera which tilts the wood pieces in a certain angle, creating the illusion of depth and therefore the illusion of a ‘reflection’.\n\n“Mechanical mirrors are a platform in which Rozin investigates the borderline and contrasts between digital and analog worlds, virtual and physical experience, or order versus chaos. The first of this series, Rozin’s Wooden Mirror explores the inner workings of image creation and human visual perception.”\n\nQ: Why do you find this artwork or project intriguing?\nA: I stumbled upon this artwork on Facebook around last year and was fascinated by how the artist managed to show depth using just wood plates and the shadows they cast, which seems pretty impossible. I find it really interesting as I tried to figure out how technology allows us to make what appears to be impossible, which is to make a mirror out of a non reflective material. I was even more fascinated after thinking through the process of making this installation work the way it does.\n\nQ: What is the situation or interaction created for the viewer?\nA: The Wooden Mirror appears counter-intuitive to viewers at first, when a reflection casts on a non-reflective ‘mirror’ is made. Through instilling curiosity within viewers, the viewers would be made to look into the Wooden Mirror and interact with it by moving about and observing how the wooden plates move in relation to their own body movement.\n\nQ: What is the intention of this interaction?\nA: Other than the testing and application of a crazy but successful idea, the artwork has allowed people to question the potentials of materials, such as using a non reflective surface to create properties of a reflective surface. It also suggests to us the wonders of technology, in how each plate can be intricately programmed to display a certain shade to create a big image as a whole.\n\nQ: Who has control over the outcome of the artwork or project? Is it the creator / artist or the viewer/audience?\nA: The creator has the primary control, ultimately, in terms of how he set the stage to make the wooden plates move in response to viewers (eg. he could have made it hard for viewers to discern their own image). However, the creator decided to make the artwork as it is now, and as such, the audience has more control over the outcome in term of how they directly affect the images portrayed on the Wooden Mirror.\n\nNadine is a social robot modelled after Professor Nadia Magnenat Thalman. She is considered the ‘most realistic female humanoid social robots in the world’ at that time. She was created to assist people with special needs, and she can read stories, show images, and communicate with her user. She is also able to answer questions in different languages, simulate emotions in her gestures and her expressions, make eye contact with users, and can remember all the conversations she had with people.\n\nQ: Why do you find this artwork or project intriguing?\nA: My first encounter with Nadine was during the Human+ exhibition some years ago and was deeply intrigued by it. It was fascinating to me how technology is so advanced for a robot to exhibit (or simulate) social behaviours.\n\nQ: What is the situation or interaction created for the viewer?\nA: The viewers can ask Nadine questions and respond to it, creating a flow of conversation. This back to back conversations creates feedback loop between Nadine and viewers. The viewers can talk about many different things like the weather, ask about Nadine, etc.\n\nQ: What is the intention of this interaction?\nA: The main purpose of the interactivity with Nadine is to assist people in different ways. She can be a receptionist, or an assistance to people with special needs. But within the Human+ exhibition, the interaction is perhaps to awe viewers in how smart a robot can be and imagine the future where quality and advancedness of robotics can be useful to humanity.\n\nQ: What is the role of the viewer?\nA: The role is to just ask Nadine questions and talk to Nadine and reply. The viewer is also perhaps made to think about what to say, and think about pushing the limits of the robot.\n\nQ: Who has control over the outcome of the artwork or project? Is it the creator / artist or the viewer/audience?\nA: In this case, I’m quite uncertain as Nadine is programmed to learn. As such I think perhaps both the project (Nadine) and the viewers have control over the outcome of the artwork, which is their conversations, while the creator only have the parameters for the interaction set beforehand (like gestures, things Nadine will talk about, etc).\n\nQ: Come up with 2 thoughtful questions in your essay that will benefit the class with regards to this week’s topic on interactivity."

"What's a turkey wattle for anyway?",
null,
"A wild turkey is instantly recognizable for many reasons. These birds are big — sometimes tipping the scales at more than 20 pounds — but what most often catches our eyes is the bright red skin that hangs from the birds' necks.\n\nThis fleshy, bumpy skin has a name: the wattle. It's different from the long piece of flesh that grows down from the bird's forehead, which is called a \"snood,\" according to PBS. Snoods can be short, sticking up like a horn, or long, extending past the nose. The fleshy bumps on the turkey's head and neck are called caruncles.\n\nBoth male and female wild turkeys have both wattles and snoods, but they are much more prominent and noticeable in males, called toms. This is helpful during mating season, when extra blood rushes to the wattle, giving it a bright scarlet color. This is one of the primary functions of the wattle, because it helps the toms attract a hen, according to the National Audubon Society.\n\nWattles are useful for more than just attracting mates, however. When it is hot, the wattle can release excess heat. Turkeys don't sweat, and because their feathers are dark colored, they absorb a lot of heat on hot, sunny days. The skin on their wattle and their bare neck helps them release some of this excess heat, according to the Audubon Society.\n\nThe wattle can be a little like a mood ring, too. Blood flow into the wattle affects its color, and when a wild turkey is scared or threatened, the blood retracts from the wattle, making it appear blue, the Audubon Society reports. And if a turkey is ill, the wattle and snood will be very pale or almost white in color.\n\nAt this time of the year, we have turkey on the brain, so we are naturally more curious about these birds. And while their wattles may be one of their trademarks, they are hardly the only birds with wattles. Roosters have them, of course, but so, too, do some species of plovers, pheasants, storks, bellbirds and cassowaries, the Audubon Society reports."

"A 32-year-old man who denies murdering Gareth Hutch as part of the ongoing Kinahan-Hutch feud has brought a High Court challenge against his transfer from Mountjoy Prison to Portlaoise Prison.\n\nThe action has been brought by Jonathan Keogh against the Governor of Portlaoise Prison over the transfer that occurred on March 9th last.\n\nMr Keogh is currently on remand and is due to be tried for Mr Hutch's murder before the Special Criminal Court in May.\n\nHe claims that he has not been given any reason for his transfer, fears for his safety in Portlaoise, the High Court heard on Monday.\n\nHe claims the transfer has caused him difficulties including that he has received no visits since his move from Mountjoy and in relation to seeing his counsel and solicitor in advance of his trial.\n\nOn March 22nd he was informed by the prison authorities that he was being removed from structured activity within the prison and was not allowed to associate with other prisoners.\n\nNo reason, other than the decision was taken by the Governor to ensure the good order and security in the prison, was given to Mr Keogh.\n\nAs well as seeking details about the reasons for his transfer Mr Keogh has also sought the basis why he has been removed from structured activities.\n\nHe says he had not received any response to his questions.\n\nHe claims the decisions are in breach of fair procedures and in breach of his rights under the Constitution and the European Convention on Human Rights.\n\nIn his action, Mr Keogh, with an address at Sean McDermott Street in Dublin seeks orders quashing the decisions to transfer him and remove him from structured activities in the prison.\n\nHe also seeks orders compelling the Governor to give reasons for the decisions.\n\nHe further seeks declarations that the prison regime he is subject to breaches his rights to fair procedures.\n\nIn a sworn statement in support of his application, Mr Keogh said that h was an enhanced or trusted prisoner in Mountjoy, and was not aware of any concerns for his safety at the Dublin prison.\n\nFollowing his transfer, he engaged in a dirty protest for 24 hours before abandoning it in favour of a hunger strike which he maintained for six days.\n\nPermission to bring the challenge was granted, on an ex parte basis, by Mr Justice Seamus Noonan. The Judge made the action returnable to a date later this week."

"Online Auction written on a wooden cube in a office desk\n\nBritish model was drugged and kidnapped in Milan for a week in July while her captor sought to “auction” her on the internet for €300,000, Italian police confirmed Saturday.\n\nThe UK Telegraph reports that the model, who has not been named, was reportedly sent by her UK agent to Milan for a photo shoot on July 11 and when she arrived at the studio near the city’s central railway station she was anaesthetised with the powerful drug Ketamine injected into her arm.\n\nHer kidnapper, described as a British-Polish man, held her captive for seven days while he sought to “auction” her through networks on the ‘deep web’ of the internet with a starting price of €300,000, police confirmed.\n\nAfter the model was freed, her kidnapper demanded €50,000 and threatened to kill the traumatised woman if she reported the incident to the police.\n\nThe sensational story was first revealed by Corriere della Sera on Saturday and Milan police confirmed the details when contacted by The Telegraph.\n\nThe model, who is reportedly in her 20s, travelled from Paris to Milan for the fake photo shoot and was only released by her kidnapper because she was a mother with a young child.\n\n“You have a two-year-old child and our rules exclude mothers,” the kidnapper allegedly told her according to the Italian report.\n\nThe man was captured by police as he was reportedly accompanying the model to the British Consulate in Milan and police said he confessed to the crime.

"I am a member of the Data Systems Group in Microsoft Research Redmond. I work on various aspects database systems, mostly related to data integration and transaction processing.\n\nI’m currently working applications of disaggregated memory as a remote database cache. From 2012-2019, I worked on a distributed systems programming framework, called Orleans, which was released as open source in January, 2015 and is widely used inside and outside Microsoft. I gave a keynote about it at DISC 2014 (slides). I worked on projects to enrich Orleans to be an “actor-oriented database system”. I described the vision in a keynote at ICDE 2018 (slides). You can read about the following components: indexing (CIDR 2017), geo-distribution (OOPSLA 2017), and transactions (technical report)—all of which are available on GitHub.\n\nMy early research was primarily on transaction processing, and after a long hiatus, I resumed working in this area in 2006 as a co-designer of the database engine for SQL Azure. I then focused on building Hyder, a prototype transactional indexed-record manager that scales out without partitioning. I co-authored a survey of techniques for multi-master replication (SIGMOD 2013) and two books on transaction processing:\n\nI’ve published many research papers on transaction processing, data integration, and other aspects of database management. You can find a nearly-complete list at the DBLP Computer Science Bibliography.",

"Episode 114 | April 8, 2020 - Forty years ago, database research was an “exotic” field and, because of its business data processing reputation, was not considered intellectually interesting in academic circles. But that didn’t deter Dr. Philip Bernstein, now a Distinguished Scientist in MSR’s Data Management, Exploration and Mining group, and a pioneer in the field. Today, Dr. Bernstein talks about his pioneering work in databases over the years and tells us all about Project Orleans, a distributed systems programming framework that makes life easier for programmers who aren’t distributed systems experts. He also talks about the future of database systems in a cloud scale world, and reveals where he finds his research sweet spot along the academic industrial spectrum."

"LYCOMING COUNTY, Pa. — Lycoming County native Brennan \"Beane\" Hepler has been making a name for himself on one of music's biggest stages. This Sunday night, he will compete live with 11 other contestants in Los Angeles to secure a spot in the top nine of American Idol.\n\n\"It has been the biggest whirlwind of an experience ever. Obviously, it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and my favorite part of the whole thing is getting to sing with the band. They are legendary,\" said Brennan Hepler.\n\nThis Sunday, the remaining 12 contestants will be performing Oscar-nominated songs. Beane has high hopes for his upcoming performance.\n\n\"I think people, from me, can expect a party. We are going to party on stage this week, and I can't wait to do that.\"\n\nHepler, who went to school at Loyalsock Township Senior High, says it's been an out-of-this-world experience during his time on the show.\n\n\"There is kind of a lot of boxes that have to be checked to get ready to do a live show. Live TV and singing on live TV is a whole new terrifying world.\"\n\nHe tells Newswatch 16 that he has received a tremendous amount of support from his friends and family back home.\n\n\"The people from back home have been just wonderful and brilliant and so so sweet and kind. It means the world to me especially coming out of kind of a darker time that people have something to celebrate.\"\n\nIf you would like to watch Beane perform, you can see him on this weekend's episode of American Idol on Sunday at 8 p.m. on WNEP-TV."

"By times they are brilliant, but also show signs of severe stupidity. They are our future, and we have all been one during our lifetime. In case you haven’t guessed, I am referring to the noble creature commonly referred to as the student. With the ousting of Queen’s Principal Hitchcock, completion of final examinations, Stanley Cup Playoffs, and unbelievably high seasonal conditions, a perfect storm is brewing in the demilitarized student housing area. Will the raucous scene at past Homecoming events be eclipsed by an entirely new beast that’s bigger and more debauched than the Aberdeen street party and Kingston Penitentiary Riots of ’71 combined?\n\nWho wouldn’t want to celebrate the completion of yet another grueling school term with a BBQ in their backyard? Why shouldn’t Queen’s students toast the possibility of new leadership at the “Harvard of the North”? It’s all well and good until the kegs get tapped and someone turns up the Kanye, and then local residents wake up to tomorrow’s brightest passed out amongst their tulips. I’m referring to a minority of people, and don’t intend on painting Queen’s and St. Lawrence students with the same discerning brush.\n\nNot all the students are chucking empty beer bottles into the crowd, setting off fireworks underneath police cruisers and generally acting belligerent. That being said, a great deal of the alcohol-induced crowd, albeit tame, can serve to fuel the car fires caused by a few degenerates. I’ve experienced Homecoming on Aberdeen, where I honestly feared for my safety because of the smell of leaking gasoline, the sight of 2 inches of shattered glass on the road, and numerous people decked out in Lulu Lemon attire. In comparison, I’ve also attended St. Jean Baptiste celebrations in Quebec City, which draws 10 times the crowd of a Queen’s Homecoming, and results in fewer arrests and disturbing incidents.\n\nThis past weekend, the police busted up a 100-person party in MacDonald park near main campus, laying a single fine to an unfortunate individual. This random act of partying happened within the examination period, which begs the question what sort of event might be in store for the city after the last Scantron bubbles are filled in? I, for one, am anxiously anticipating the mass exodus of students and the arrival of pleasant summer tourists. With any luck the wake of destruction left behind by the fleeing Queen’s and St. Lawrence part-time Kingston residents will be minimal. Let there be legendary parties, and respect for the rest of us."

"Just as the musical and 1961 film West Side Story immortalised the gangs of New York, the Gorbals became famous for its gangland culture - brought to life in the pages of the 1935 novel No Mean City by H. Kingsley Long and Alexander McArthur.\n\nIn both cities, the gangs emerged out of urban community tensions, poverty and unemployment. As Steven Spielberg's new version of West Side City is released 60 years after the original, Alistair and the historians Valerie Wright and Andrew Davies consider whether second lives are possible - whether it's an individual turning over a new leaf, an urban area undergoing regeneration, or a story that is told and retold across generations.\n\nYou can listen to the programme here."

"The Kloeckner Metals Tulsa Building Products branch recently participated in a charity event geared toward providing relief for the victims of Hurricane Matthew in Haiti. Rather than simply giving money, the program provides building materials for shelter/home repair. As a company which sells building materials, this was a unique way that Kloeckner could help the cause. Kloeckner donated two 29 gauge 40.875 wide painted metal coils. They were run through the roll former at Metal Panels Inc., a partner in the charity event, which turned the metal into metal roofing panels.\n\n“We donated those metal panels knowing that these panels are going to go to help rebuild structures there so they can get back to some sort of normal living environment,” says Ryan Wooldridge of Kloeckner Metals. “We thought it was a good avenue to help out their situation.”\n\nThe project was spearheaded by Mitch Hentkowski of Metal Panels Inc. who worked with Cross Catholic International. Mitch grew up poor in America, but when he was stationed in Panama in the Army, he saw the depth of real poverty. For Mitch, from that point, it became a goal to find ways of helping the poor in third world countries. One avenue to do so was through Cross Catholic International which already has a presence in Haiti and other countries.\n\n“So last year I started donating through Cross Catholic International to fund the building of permanent homes for families in Haiti and Guatemala,” Mitch says. They put up duplex homes where two families share a bathroom, so they have actual plumbing and water. If they have a small plot of land with it, they encourage them to farm, and any excess food that they have they encourage them to sell it into the local market place to earn some income.\n\nWhen the Hurricane hit, Mitch reached out to the organization to see how he could help. Working in the construction materials industry, he thought donating physical panels would be a natural way to contribute. The trouble was working out the logistics.\n\n“A lot of people want to do something. It is just that trying to figure out how to do it is usually the most difficult thing. Typically that is the first step,” Mitch says.\n\nOnce Mitch worked out the specifics with Cross Catholic International, he reached out to suppliers in the area to see if they would be interested in helping. It was at that point that he called up Kloeckner Metals.\n\n“He just called me out of the blue,” Ryan says. “He asked if we would be interested in donating some materials so they can run panels for Haiti hurricane relief.”\n\nRyan was able to provide a donation, which shipped out to Haiti in November. Once the supplies get to Haiti, they will be distributed to distribution points that are typically local churches where they will be given out to those who need them. Ultimately, the metal roofing panels will go to those who lack even rudimentary shelters.\n\nIn total, 4,000 panels have shipped out. Accounting for just a few panels per person, this is a project that could have a large and lasting impact. While other programs are geared toward providing food and water, this program fills the need for basic shelter.\n\n“The fact that it makes more of a permanent structure, or as permanent as can be for these people in this situation, then that is just one less thing they have to worry about,” Mitch says. “If they have shelter over their head, they can be concerned about food and water and not all three of them.”"

The home crowd in Lautoka were treated to some thrilling rugby, as can also be seen in the NRC Top Tries of the Season compilation below.\n\nThe Fijian team joined the Australian domestic competition in 2017 and have now won a historic title in only their second year. This was also the first time the final has been played outside of Australia.\n\nThings were knotted at 12-apiece before Drua scored again to take a 19-12 lead into the break.\n\nBoth teams exchanged tries in the second half, but it was Drua who came away with the storybook victory on their own pitch. Despite the rainy conditions, fast-paced rugby was the order on the day with Drua scoring five tries to Country’s four.\n\nARU high-performance boss, Ben Whitaker said: “On behalf of Rugby Australia and the Australian Rugby community I would like to congratulate the Fijian Drua on their victory today.”\n\n“Over the course of the NRC season, the Drua played enterprising, exciting Rugby that enthralled and entertained fans in Fiji, around Australia and across the world.”\n\nFijian Drua have their hands all over this top NRC tries of the season compilation, which features a number of outstanding scores from throughout the season. There are three honourable mentions before they get into the Top 5, and they’re all great to watch."

"Native American [Native] is what I prefer my ethnicity to be referred as. I’m not so closed-minded as to think that being called American Indian is offensive, but I do think its misleading.\n\nOver 500 years ago Columbus was trying to find an alternate route to India and failed. He was taken in by the Native Americans. Somewhere between the time that he landed and when he returned to Europe our Native american people were referred to as Indians. Which is confusing to those now immigrating from Southern Asia [India].\nOur native american people were in their indigenous lands and have at least 565 names. Indians not being one of them. But the name has stuck. Hollywood and pop culture has kept the name and the imagery of teepee living, broken english speaking, 2-braided, bare-chested, horse-riding, war-painted, and don’t forget feather in the hair “Indian” man pervasive. While that may resemble some of the cultures. That imagery does not represent all of the numerous indigenous people of North america.\nNow people are going back and forth about whether it is right for the Redskins to use the mascot and call themselves redskins when the name is offensive to so many people. Honestly, I don’t have faith that they will change soon. The Washington Redskins have been around for less than 100 years. Here we are, over 500 years later and still calling our people by the name that we were mistakenly called by a guy that was lost and in need of some help. So please, for clarity’s sake. When it comes to generalizing about indigenous peoples if you don’t know their tribe refer to them as “Native American”."

"Nothing is off the table as investigators search for answers into what went so wrong in Houston Friday night.\n\n\"So you look at it and you say first of all, crowds are too dense,\" said Paul Wertheimer with Crowd Management Strategies. \"And you ask the question, who is observed monitoring the crowd and who is managing the crowd? And in this case it from what i can tell so far what we know. Nobody seems to have been doing either of those things.\"\n\nThere's new focus on a history of troubling incidents at other Live Nation concerts and other Travis Scott events.\n\n\"I really believed that I was going to die.\"\n\n\"It was going on for over two hours. It just got worse and worse, everyone's like, you just can't breathe, you just feel like there's a weighted blanket on you.\"\n\nOne of the first lawsuits stemming from the Houston stampede names concert promoting giant Live Nation, along with rappers Travis Scott and Drake who performed that night.\n\n\"It alleges that the promoter and the musicians failed to properly plan the concert. And allowed the venue to fill beyond capacity,\" a lawyer said.\n\nLive Nation is one of the largest live music promoters in the world.\n\nMultiple other mass casualties at Live Nation events prompted other lawsuits. A suicide bomber killed 22 people at an Ariana Grande concert in England in 2017, a mass shooter killed 60 at a Live Nation country music festival in Las Vegas the same year and the company settled with victims of a stage collapse at a concert in Indiana in 2011.\n\nThe concert promoter faced another lawsuit related to trampling in 2016 at a North Carolina Gwen Stefani concert. A judge removed Live Nation from the case.\n\nAs for Travis Scott, he pleaded guilty to charges stemming from two past concerts — one in Arkansas and one in Chicago when fans rushed the stage.\n\nThen there's this video of the rapper encouraging a fan to jump from a balcony at a 2017 concert.\n\n\"Then you have to say, how did they plan for this event? You plan properly, you have to know the crowd profile and the history of the artists, not now. The people who plan manage and approve it should have known those things before.\""

"ARSENAL and Leicester’s pre-season plans have been hit by Covid-19. Sportsmail understands the\n\nGunners have been working to contain an outbreak at their training ground, while several Foxes players are isolating.\n\nArsenal’s first team are in Scotland at a training camp. Players yet to head north were told to steer clear of the club’s London base last week and two youth team friendlies have been postponed. The alert was said to be triggered by a ‘small number’ of positive tests, putting academy players in quarantine. ‘All these positives were transmitted off site and the players are well,’ said a spokesperson.\n\nTHE Team GB women’s football squad will take a knee before kick-off at the Tokyo Olympics.\n\nClarification of Rule 50, which outlaws political symbols, means athletes can now make gestures on the field of play, provided they are done without disruption and with respect for fellow competitors.\n\nGB coach Hege Riise said: ‘The players have been taking the knee at club and international level for over a year now and we were united in our decision to continue.’\n\nCHELSEA’S clearout continues as they push hard to sign Erling Haaland this summer. They have agreed to sell England Under 21 defender Marc Guehi to Crystal Palace for £20m.\n\nThe centre back, who has impressed on loan at Swansea, had a medical yesterday ahead of signing a five-year deal.\n\nGuehi’s exit brings in significant cash as Chelsea plan a title challenge under Thomas Tuchel. Fikayo Tomori has moved to AC Milan for £24m and is set to be joined there by Olivier Giroud, who is on the verge of a £1.7m switch.\n\nOffering Tammy Abraham and Callum Hudson-Odoi, plus cash, to Dortmund has been raised as a way of landing Haaland.\n\nWhile that may appeal to Abraham — who is also drawing interest from Arsenal — Hudson-Odoi has no interest in being used as a makeweight.\n\nRYAN BERTRAND has signed a two-year deal with Leicester. The left back, 31, was a free agent after leaving Southampton.\n\nWOLVES have signed goalkeeper Jose Sa from Olympiacos to replace Rui Patricio, who has joined Roma. NEWCASTLE keeper Martin Dubravka will miss the start of the season after a broken metatarsal ruled him out for a month.\n\nEVERTON have swooped for Sunderland striker Francis Okoronkwo, 16, agreeing a deal worth up to £1m. He caught the eye for the Under 18s last season and several top-flight clubs were chasing the 6ft 3in frontman.",

"The mascot: a character in a cartoon that isn't specifically on the team of the good guys, but follows them along, sometimes helping out, but just as often causing or worsening a problem the good guys are dealing with. Created to be something the younger viewers would latch on to in a cartoon, the writers frequently overdo their ticks and habits to make them into annoying sidekicks that everyone wished weren't there. These characters were never human (or human-like if the show wasn't based on earth) but some of them could speak, though we often wished they couldn't. Often times they were created for comic relief, but considering the antics of the villains could easily fill that role, these characters just weren't necessary.\n\n\nToday we're going to look at the top five worst mascot characters based on 3 criteria: how much are they involved with the good guys, how often do they screw things up, and how annoying do they sound. Even though the first two criteria are pretty important to the story, I feel like the last one is the most damning of all.\n\n\nBefore we begin, I wanted to give an honorable mention to Slimer from The Real Ghostbuster. I really liked Slimer in the beginning of the series, but as it went on and he was shoe-horned into more episodes, he started grating on my nerves. Then finally, the show was expanded to an hour with Silmer getting top billing and his own shorts. Hearing his whining over the theme song, culminating with the \"And me! And me!\" at the end made my blood boil. If it weren't for the early episodes where he just annoyed Venkman, he would be near the top of my list. Still, there are worse mascots and that should really tell you something.",
null,
"5. Kowl\nBow's companion in She-Ra was a far stretch from his Eternian counterpart (more on him later). Cowl was a butterfly/owl combination of a sort, and didn't really do much of anything in the cartoon besides make a lot of quips towards Bow, which won some points with me because Bow's one of the worst characters in the show.",
null,
"4. Orko\nEveryone should have known he was on this list, but I'm sure his placement near the bottom is a surprise. Orko's biggest problem was how often he caused problems for Man-at-Arms. His magic spells constantly went wrong with \"hilarious\" results, but pretty often his bumbling caused series issues for the Masters, such as sending Prince Adam's power sword into the past. Other times, he's been able to help He-Man, and in truth, is one of the only characters to know his secret. Orko speaks English as well as the other characters in the show, even if it's a bit exaggerated or overly-enthusiastic.",
null,
"3. Snarf\nIf Orko makes the list, then of course Snarf will. Snarf appeared as Lion-o's caretaker while he was a kid at the very beginning of the Thundercats and for some reason never gave up on that doting mother shtick. Look, Lion-o's buff as hell, he's the freakin' leader of the Thundercats, he doesn't need some cat lizard running around taking care of him. To top it off, he had the most obnoxious habit of saying his own name all the time. I don't have to tell you why that was annoying as hell.",
null,
"2. Uni\nI feel the need to start this one off with how much I love Frank Welker. Basically, if you've heard any kind of animal noise in a cartoon, it was provided by Mr. Welker. And while I appreciate a lot of it, that baby unicorn from Dungeons & Dragons is not one of those times. Uni is one of the rare animal mascots that can't actually speak English, and while that frees us from hearing a weird accent or annoying speech pattern, instead we were assaulted with a ton of panicked bleating that got on your nerves after less than a second. To illustrate how irritating it is, when I was watching the show, every time Uni would cry out, my wife thought our baby was throwing a fit.",
null,
"1. Oon\nYou know it's bad when from a show that has three mascots, you're the worst one - Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors has multiple mascots, including a flying fish that kinda makes bubbly sounds, three little robot lizard things that just get in the way, and Oon, a miniscule talking set of armor. I hate this guy with a passion; always boasting about his magic lance, but cowering at the first sign of a Monster Mind. He's so far out of his league and he knows it. He supposedly was the protector of Jayce's father and we all know now how he got captured. Too bad he trusted his safety to a hunk of junk like Oon."

"International relations scholars debate whether the current liberal order can adapt to power shifts among the great powers. Yet historically, contestation among the great powers has often revolved around the question of whether the international system should be organized along liberal and institutional lines in the first place. In this paper, I examine great power negotiation strategies at the 1899 and 1907 Hague conferences, an often overlooked yet critical episode of liberal order‐building. As rising powers shuffled the great power ranks, many hoped that the Hague conferences would prevent arms racing, reduce the barbarity of war, and promote peaceful solutions to international crises. Champions of liberal rules and institutions used principled persuasion, appealing to shared norms and collective identities. They also engaged in rhetorical coercion, seeking at times to shame potential obstructionists. Yet the conferences revealed the profound limitations of these soft‐power based negotiation strategies. For a brief moment in 1899, circumstances allowed champions of the Hague system to persuade states to sign on to the laws of war and to embarrass states into accepting arbitration. Yet by 1907, conditions had changed and obstructionists were able to mobilize broad coalitions to block significant change. The Hague conferences highlight the importance of interstate coalitional networks in institutional adaptation.\n\n‘On the Measurement of Social Progress and Wellbeing’: A Commentary\nLeonardo Becchetti\nVol 4, Issue 3, September 2013"

"Consumers can expect some relief as power rates and prices of some petroleum products are down.\n\nThe fourth consecutive downward rate adjustment will be equivalent to a decrease of around P41 in the bill of a residential customer consuming 200 kWh monthly. It brings overall power rates to P8.4911 per kWh from last month’s P8.6966 per kWh.\n\nMeralco said with five straight months of generation rate reduction and a total rate decrease of more than P1 per kWh since the start of the year, this month’s overall rate is the lowest in nearly three years, since September 2017.\n\nMeralco said apart from lower prices of electricity from WESM, reduction in charges from independent power producers (IPPs) and the stronger performance of the peso against the dollar also helped bring down power costs.\n\nWESM charges were P1.12 per kWh lower this month due to improved supply situation in the Luzon grid with lower average plant capacity on outage. The cost of power from IPPs decreased because of lower natural gas prices as a result of quarterly repricing.\n\nMeanwhile, purchases from power supply agreements (PSAs) inched up by P0.2722 per kWh due to lower average plant dispatch and lower force majeure (FM) claims this month compared to the previous month.\n\nFM claims for the month totalled to about P82 million, equivalent to customer savings of P0.0285 per kWh in the generation charge as total savings generated from FM claims for the past five months hit P1.9 billion.\n\nTransmission charge for residential customers registered a slight reduction of P0.0081 per kWh due to lower ancillary service charges which more than offset the P0.0129 per kWh net increase in taxes and other charges.\n\nMeralco’s interim distribution rates comprised of distribution, supply and metering charges, the only bill component paid to the company remained at P1.381 per kWh for the past 61 months.\n\nThe company said 15.5 percent of the total power requirements for the month were from WESM while PSAs and IPPs had accounted for 50.6 percent and 33.9 percent, respectively.\n\nMeanwhile, fuel price movements are mixed effective today, August 11, to reflect developments in global crude costs which continue to be volatile due to the uncertainties brought by the pandemic.\n\nPTT and Phoenix Petroleum raised prices of gasoline by P0.25 per liter but reduced the cost of diesel by P0.20 per liter.\n\nReuters reported that as of Friday last week, Brent crude fell 69 cents to settle at $44.40 a barrel while US West Texas Intermediate crude declined by 73 cents to end at $41.22 a barrel.\n\nRino Abad, director of the Oil Industry Management Bureau, said the country has ample supply of petroleum products even if the two local crude refineries have temporarily stopped operations due to low margins.\n\n“Our latest minimum inventory report (showed) we have 63 days supply of petroleum products. That is too much, our requirement before was 15 days for finished products, 30 days for refinery and 7 days for LPG. To have that high amount of two months’ worth of supply, we don’t need refinery production to further increase or else they (oil companies) will continue to lose a lot of money,” Abad said.\n\nThe DOE said the 10-percent tax on crude and petroleum products under Executive Order No. 113 is no longer imposed following the expiration of the Bayanihan Law expired last June 25."

"What is Conjunto? | Rancho Alegre\nSkip to main content\n\nNearly everyone has heard of Flaco Jimenez, because of his work with the Texas Tornados, The Mavericks, and even the Rolling Stones. But Flaco is just part of a rich musical tradition unique to Texas, following in the footsteps of his father, Don Santiago Jimenez and brother, Santiago Jimenez, Jr. For those unfamiliar, here’s a very quick description of Conjunto music. There’s so much more, this is just to give you an idea.",
null,
"Conjunto music is Texas “roots” music that dates back to the end of the 19th century. Like Blues and Traditional Country, it tells the stories of the everyday lives of the working class. It is also dance music, characterized by a strong, unrelenting beat and bright accordion melodies, evidence of the fusion of German and Mexican immigrant cultures in south Texas at the beginning of the 20th century. It was tremendously popular among working-class Mexican-American Texans during the post-World War II era, before audiences began to flock to Tejano music, which was a heavily influenced by Orquesta, Rock, Rhythm and Blues, Jazz, and Country, beginning in the late 1960s and 1970s, nearly wiping out Conjunto on radio playlists everywhere by the 1990s.\n\nIn recent years, Conjunto has enjoyed a surge in popularity, thanks to the internet, the rise of younger groups, and new festivals in cities all over Texas and the rest of the country. It remains, however, a hidden gem in the history of American music and continues to fight for air time on the few remaining terrestrial Tejano music radio stations in Texas.\n\nWant to know more? Listen to our Conjunto playlist, which features classics from legendary performers like Rene Joslin, Tony De La Rosa, Ruben Naranjo, Los Cuatitos Cantu, and more. You’ll also hear hits from some of today’s up and coming Conjuntos who are keeping the tradition alive and going strong.\n\nAlso, don’t miss the story of this music, told by the musicians themselves, in their own words. Be sure to listen to our exclusive interviews with the pioneers and the new generation.\n\nEVEN BETTER: Go see a show. A great place to start is at the Rancho Alegre Conjunto Festival if it's coming up, or any of our other events.\n\nSpread the Word about Rancho Alegre\n\nTweets by @ratexas\nScroll to the top"

"Warner Bros. Pictures’ recent blockbuster, Wonder Woman, directed by Patty Jenkins, tells the story of Amazonian princess Diana (Gal Gadot), who grew up on the island of Themyscira. When she rescues an American WWI fighter pilot (Chris Pine) who crashes offshore, she learns of the ongoing World War and decides to leave her utopian home in order to end the conflict.\n\nThe film has met with acclaim for its direction, performances and the thrilling visual spectacle it delivers. Visual effects supervisor Bill Westenhofer tapped London-based VFX house MPC early on for some of the film’s key sequences and effects.\n\nMPC VFX supervisor Jessica Norman was responsible for nearly 500 shots in the film. In particular, her team was called on to create a wide variety of digital doubles and choreograph their movements, including CG takeovers and face replacements of Wonder Woman herself. “There were also a lot of other hero characters, horses and various environments,” Norman adds.\n\nShe explained that the asset work was supervised from the company’s London studio, with a lot of the asset building done in Bangalore, but the majority of the visual effects work was done at the company’s Montreal facility.\n\nMPC handled the big battle sequence early in the movie, which pitted German soldiers against Amazonian warriors. She notes that MPC’s work started with the scene where Pine’s character (Steve Trevor) crashes into the sea to be rescued by Diana, which called for underwater shots that were done in a tank at Warner Bros. Studios, Leavesden. “And then, they get onto the beach and he's followed by Germans, and all the Amazons jump down off of a cliff, and start a big battle on the beach.”\n\nNorman continues that the beach in the film is actually an amalgam of two different Italian shorelines. “They found this cliff on the east coast of Italy that they really liked the look of, but it barely had a beach and it was really tidal and hard to get to. You couldn't shoot there, so we got a lot of references of that cliff, created that in CG and put the two beaches together.”\n\nMeanwhile the sandy beach where most of the action takes place was shot on the west coast of Italy. “So, from there, we kind of kept the action in the sand and the water, but then we sort of added the big cliff backdrop to make the two beaches look like one. That, obviously, was one of our big tasks,” says Norman.\n\n“Then, typical for those kind of sequences, we added a lot of extra characters,” she adds. “There was a lot of stunt work in there, so there were some face replacements. But also, some of the characters ended up being CG characters or expansions of the crowd of Amazonians, Germans and horses.”\n\nNorman explained that some of the hero horseback sequences were shot on a greenscreen stage back in London, with a robotic motion-control rig shaped like a horse. “We did hero horses to replace the rig, most of them with full CG extensions with the environment and the crowd.”\n\nIn addition to horseback shots, the company’s London mocap studio also focused on a lot of the fighting between Amazonians and Germans.\n\n“Obviously these were Amazon ladies fighting Germans and the Amazons only have bows and swords and shields, while the Germans have guns. So, it's a different kind of fighting action,” notes Norman. “We did shoot some mocap back here in London, which was very valuable, both to be able to get the right kind of actions you need between different kinds of weapons, but also to get some female/male fighting against each other because you have slightly different movements. It was really valuable.”\n\nNorman really enjoyed working with the stunt team. “I like where you mix media, when you cut in between live action and into CG. It's something I enjoy rather than solely relying on CG,” she says.\n\n“There were also two big sequences that were shot in London. One sequence in particular involved a town square, and there's a mix of different aspects to that shot,” Norman remarks. “They had some brilliant stunt actresses and we sort of intercut between shots when we would see the stunt actress doing something with her face replacement. On some shots, we even needed to cut a CG shot with a stunt actress, half CG and the actress in the second half. Some shots obviously ended up being full CG. So, we sort of tried to get the best of both worlds. We tried to get as much real where we could, but then when we wanted to get that little bit of extra, we made sure to find and blend the right solution for every situation.”\n\nAt the same time, the company’s Montreal motion capture studio focused on Wonder Woman’s actions, including a lot of running sequences that were shot on a treadmill. “We wanted a really powerful run,” she says. “[The motion capture stage] is really useful. When you’re working on a particular animation and you want some additional studies, you can just go down there and capture extra stuff.”\n\nNorman explained that overall, creating Wonder Woman herself was probably the biggest challenge. “First, there is the build -- you try to get as clear a build as possible,” she says. “She was used for both face replacements and various actions, so I spent a lot of time on the build. Then, she needed a very particular hair design. We developed some new controls for our hair sim. Obviously, you want to have as natural a simulation as possible -- you want her hair to move as it would, but then control it a little bit so you still have that kind of ‘super’ character design that she has in many of the shots. So, we kind of did a little bit of choreography with the hair.”\n\nThe studio engaged several female athletes/performers in Montreal for the Wonder Woman motion capture sessions. According to Norman, “It was key that we had some tall girls with really long legs so we didn’t have to change the performance so much. It’s useful I think, particularly in human animation like that, to try and get as much reference and then as much real material as you can.”\n\n“I had a really good team out in Montreal, and I worked very closely with my CG supervisor James Rustad,” Norman concludes. “We spent a lot of time in animation, and did a lot of mocap sessions in Montreal. In many ways, Wonder Woman was our biggest challenge, but also the most rewarding.”"

"The merger is a combination of two or more entities into one; it is not just the accumulation of assets and liabilities of the distinct entities, but the organization of the entity into one business. The merger requires a complete restructuring of the company as the two companies are merged into one single entity. As a result of the merger of two companies either a new entity is formed or is merged into the entity of one of the merging company.\n\nSections 230 to 232 of the Companies Act provides for the cumbersome and time-consuming procedure of merger. The sections provided that all types of companies going through merger have to obtain the clearances from the regulatory bodies. Whereas the section 233 of the Companies Act, 2013 which has been added in the act on 15 December 2016 deals with the fast track mergers of two or more small companies or between a holding company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.\n\nFollowing is the procedure which the companies have to follow for the fast track merger under the Section 233 of the Companies Act, 2013 –\n\nStep 1: Convene a Board Meeting: Both the transferee and transferor company has to convene a board meeting to initiate the process of a fast track merger. The board meeting so convened has to pass following board resolutions:\n\nStep 2: Notice of Proposed Scheme: The notice of the proposed scheme required under Section 233(1)(a) of the Companies Act,2013 is given to invite objections or suggestions to the fast track merger. It shall be sent to:\n\nStep 3: Time period for Objections/ Suggestion: The objections/ suggestions if any shall be made within 30 (Thirty) days of the issue of notice, by the transferor company or companies and the transferee company. Objection/ Suggestion received by the companies are considered in the general meeting and it must be approved by respective members holding at least ninety percent of total number of shares.\n\nStep 5: Convening creditors meeting: Both the transferee and the transferor company have to convene a meeting of the members or class of members and creditors or class or creditors for their approval to the scheme of merger. A notice has to be sent within 21 days and the notice must include:\n\nStep 6: Filing of the Scheme: A copy of the scheme has to be submitted along with the result of each of the meetings with Regional Director. A copy of the scheme along with the form CAA 11 within seven days from the conclusion of the meeting of members or creditors to the office of Registrar Of Companies having jurisdiction in the form GNL 1 and to the office of Official Liquidator through hand delivery or by speed post or registered post.\n\nStep 7: Approval of Scheme by Regional Director: Following are the steps involved in getting the approval of regional director:\n\nStep 8: Filing of Confirmation Order with the ROC: For the effective fast track merger both the transferee and the transferor company has to submit a copy of order conforming the scheme of fast track merger from the tribunal or the regional director to the office of the ROC. The persons concerned and the ROC shall register the scheme and issue a confirmation to the companies and such confirmation shall be communicated to the ROC where Transferor Company or companies were situated.\n\nEffect of Registration of Scheme:\n\nThe registration of the scheme shall have the following effects:\n\ne. Additional Liability:Where the scheme provides for purchase of shares held by the dissenting shareholders or settlement of debt due to dissenting creditors, such amount, to the extent it is unpaid, shall become the liability of the transferee company.\n\na. Restrictions on holding shares in its own name by Transferee Companies:\n\nThe transferee company shall file an application with the Registrar along with the scheme registered, indicating the revised authorized capital and pay the prescribed fees due on revised capital.\n\nThe time taken to complete the merger/ amalgamation through court process and the cost involved in it, is saved substantially. The simplification of process will encourage corporate entities to undertake merger/amalgamation activities and will help small companies in strengthening their position in the market and become more competitive and exhibit a better bargaining power in the market.",

"Despite all the concessions imposed on Greece by the troika, the February 20th agreement with the Eurogroup has produced very little of any substance and is already starting to unravel. The deep crisis of Greek capitalism, combined with the stubbornness of the troika in humiliating the Greek government, leaves almost no room for manoeuvre.\n\nThe February 20 agreement committed Greece to implement a whole series of “reforms” under the strict supervision of the troika (now known as “the institutions”), in exchange for the release of the last tranche of the previous bailout worth 7.2bn euro. However, none of this money is going to be released until and after the institutions agree to the concrete list of “reforms” (read counter-reforms) proposed by the Greek government, and these measures are actually implemented.\n\nAs we warned at the time, the agreement really reaffirms the prerogatives of the troika which Syriza correctly opposed previously. If anyone was under the illusion that such an agreement would give the new government some breathing space, that is being quickly dispelled.\n\nMonday’s meeting of the Eurogroup underlined the point. “There can be no talk of early disbursements if there is no agreement and no implementation,” said Eurogroup head Dijsselbloem. Clearly, the European finance ministers did not like the document which the Greek Finance Minister had sent outlining further details of how the February 20 agreement is going to be implemented.\n\nPrevious commitments by Varoufakis to pursue rich tax evaders have disappeared from this latest document, which instead centered on pursuing those avoiding the payment of VAT. The document also gave details of the Greek government’s measures to address the humanitarian crisis which had already been passed in parliament on Friday, March 6. This includes a certain amount of free food, rent and electricity for the poorest households.\n\nThe document ends up by proposing the beginning of talks for a new “contract for recovery and growth of the Greek economy”.\n\nThis is a return to the idea that somehow the Greek government can convince its “partners” to give them substantial debt relief and facilities of payment. The problem is that the negotiations over the last few weeks and the agreement imposed on Greece on February 20 already show that this is not possible. What European capitalism wants is clear: the continuation of brutal austerity cuts so that the lenders can get their full pound of flesh. If the Greek government wants to implement any measures of its own (in this case of humanitarian relief) these should be “fiscally neutral”, that is, in order to implement them they would have to implement budget cuts elsewhere for the same amount. These are the very strict limits of the straight-jacket the troika imposed on Greece and which the Greek government signed up to.\n\nTo underline the point, German finance minister Schaeuble, in comments to the German TV after Monday’s eurogroup meeting, kept referring to the institutions as “the troika”. Varoufakis attempted to stick to his previous statements that the troika was dead: “The idea of troika visits, comprising cabals of technocrats from the three institutions in lockstep walking into our ministries and trying to implement a programme which has failed… that is a thing of the past.” But he was quickly rebutted by Spanish finance minister Luis de Guindos who said this was all semantics.\n\nDijsselbloem made it clear that technical talks would take place in Brussels, but also “in Athens on the ground”. Whichever way one wishes to present it, this basically means representatives from the troika going to Greece to supervise the details of the implementation of measures which, yes, are proposed by the Greek government, but which have to be reviewed and agreed to by “the institutions”. Nothing of any substance has changed and it cannot as long as the troika holds the purse strings.\n\nThe February 20 agreement has generated strong opposition from within the structures of Syriza. At the party’s central committee meeting over 40% of the members voted a resolution opposing the terms of the agreement. Others argued that it was wrong to present it as a victory when it clearly wasn’t.\n\nThe Greek government still has overwhelming support amongst the population, particularly as people compare it to the previous governments. However, the support it won by being seen as standing firm against the troika and the brutal austerity Memoranda which accompanied the previous bailouts is slowly eroding. This was clearly revealed in the latest Marc poll carried out at the beginning of March. According to this poll, 64% of the people still have a positive opinion of the government, but this is down from 83.6 at the beginning of February, before the agreement.\n\nPeople are still prepared to give the government the benefit of the doubt to a certain extent. The people want to see what the government does in practice regarding privatisations, the minimum wage, pensions, re-opening ERT, re-hiring public sector workers, etc.\n\nThe previous governments were so brutal in making working people pay for the crisis that even a temporary respite is to be welcomed. A huge 54.4% believe that if New Democracy had won the election again, things would be worse. Although 59.6% in the same poll said they were satisfied with the negotiations with the “partners”, they are under no illusion that the agreement means a continuation of the previous bailout and Memorandum (an opinion shared by 75.4%).\n\nPerhaps the most significant thing revealed by this poll is that 38.9% of Syriza voters now say that talks should lead to a “definitive break even if that means a return to the drachma”. It is true that a majority of Syriza voters still would prefer an “honorable mutually beneficial compromise”, but there is now a significant section who are moving towards accepting the inevitability of a complete break with the troika and the consequences this would entail. This is important, taking into account that the Syriza leadership has so far stressed repeatedly their belief that such an “honorable compromise” is possible.\n\nFaced with this situation, there were a number of statements over the weekend to the effect that if no agreement is finally possible, the government would be prepared to go to a referendum. In an interview with the Italian paper Corriere della Sera, Varoufakis declared: “as my prime minister has said, we are not yet glued to our chairs. We can return to elections, call a referendum.”.\n\nA similar point was made by Tsipras in an interview to the German Der Spiegel: “If we were to hold a referendum tomorrow with the question, ‘do you want your dignity or a continuation of this unworthy policy,’ then everyone would choose dignity regardless of difficulties that would accompany that decision.”\n\nThis is in fact the correct course. Syriza was elected on the basis of a fundamental rejection of the brutal austerity policies imposed on the Greek working people. Immediately after the election, support for the government was sky high (over 80%) and support for Syriza jumped from 36% to 45% on the basis of taking a tough stance regarding the troika. For the first time the people could see a government which appeared determined to carry out its democratic mandate.\n\nA break with the troika is inevitable unless the Syriza government accepts the continuation of the previous austerity policies. Even the current unstable status quo cannot continue for long. From the point of view of the capitalists, the election of the Syriza government was bad news. Tax revenues went down and there has been an acceleration of the flight of capital and bank deposit withdrawals. State revenue shortfalls in January, even before Syriza’s victory, were 1bn euro, leaving the primary surplus at 443 million euros, against a target of 1.3 billion. Very soon, the government may find itself with no money at all to pay for wages, pensions and its normal running costs.\n\nThe only way to prepare for this would be to wage a serious campaign of agitation, explaining clearly the choice which is posed: “the continuation of this unworthy policy” (that is the brutal austerity policies which have plunged Greece into a black hole of mass unemployment, collapsing living standards and a social and humanitarian crisis) or “dignity” (that is the repudiation of the blackmail of the European capitalists and a policy which puts the interests of Greek working people above those of the German bankers and capitalists).\n\nNot to do so or to delay acting decisively would not prevent a conflict with Greece’s European “partners”, it would only guarantee that support for the government continues to be eroded, thus putting it in a much worse position when the moment of truth comes."

"MOSCOW, February 26. /TASS/. Russian President Vladimir Putin has said that attempts at external interference in Russia’s elections next autumn will be regarded as a direct threat to Russian sovereignty, adding that an adequate response will follow.\n\n\"State Duma elections are due next autumn. All constructive political forces and parties wish the elections to be held in full conformity with the law, in a climate of fair and open competition, and their results to be impartial and reflect the real opinions and sentiment of our country’s citizens,\" Putin told a board meeting of Russia’s federal security service FSB (former KGB) on Friday.\n\nHe formulated the task set to the FSB in the following way: \"It is essential to take every step to quash the activity of those who try or may try to use nationalist xenophobic and radical slogans aimed at splitting our society.\"\n\n\"It goes without saying that any attempts at external intervention in the elections and our internal political life must be upset,\" Putin said.\n\nHe pointed out that \"such technologies do exist and have been used more than once in a number of countries.\"\n\n\"This is a direct threat to our sovereignty and we will respond to it in the proper way,\" Putin said."

"WILL NFL LOSE ANY CREDIBILITY?",
null,
"YESTERDAY the NFL took a serious hit to its credibility when hours before the Lions/Cowboys kicked off, it was reported that the Head of NFL Officiating, Dean Blandino, was seen partying on the Dallas Cowboys bus. This is an old report, but still. There was no doubt going to be an inquiry into what he was doing there. It all could have very well turned out to be harmless.\n\nBut then there was that play.\n\nFull disclosure: I did not watch the game. I was avoiding sports after learning of Stuart Scott’s passing, and instead decided to continue my personal ‘Breaking Bad’ marathon on Netflix. (And YES, I’m aware of the irony there.)\n\nHowever, once I came out of my cocoon, it was impossible to escape the replay. If you were sitting anywhere near a screen, you couldn’t avoid it. At such a critical point in the game, to get a call wrong is bad enough. But picking up that flag was more than just wrong. It was a deliberate and blatant an act of sabotage.\n\nTo call that anything less than tampering is to deny what the entire world saw. Former-referee-turned-FOX-rules-expert Mike Pereira, has said that flag should not have been picked up. HOFer Warren Sapp (a proud Cowboys fan) described it on Twitter as “Home Cookin”. As you saw (if you clicked the link), Sapp wasn’t the only former player to make it known that he thought tampering had taken place.\n\nIf this was just one bad call, it would simply be a blown call; but the sheer blatant nature of the act, set against the backdrop of Blandino getting all cozy-cozy, nice-nice with the Cowboys…It looks bad. There’s prima facie here people. LOADS of it. On record and broadcasted nationally.\n\nSweeping this under the rug, won’t do. Waiting for it to blow over, won’t do. This one (like the blown Fail Mary call by replacement refs a couple years ago), is burned into our collective, public memory. And just like we’ll remember this for years to come, we’ll also remember if the NFL acts like nothing, specifically nothing wrong, happened.\n\n4 comments on “WILL NFL LOSE ANY CREDIBILITY?”"

"IT was officially reported today, 19 November 2015, in the Herald newspaper that an agreement has been concluded between VimpelCom’s 51.9% held subsidiary, Global Telecom Holdings S.A.E. (GTH); and a nominee of the government of Zimbabwe, Zarnet Private Limited (Zarnet) providing for the sale of the entire shareholding held by GTH in Telecel Zimbabwe (TZ) for a consideration of US$40 million.\nIt is hardly surprising that the reported transaction was conceived and executed in the context of predatory rule, a primitive stratagem used by state actors in failed states, constituting a minimalist approach to development.\nThe facts and circumstances leading to this stated-led acquisition are now well established but what is significant is that the transaction represents ostensibly the displacement of one class of indigenous shareholders by a financially challenged predatory state.\nIt is worth highlighting that what is really at play in this transaction is an attempt to remove the Economic Corporation Private Limited (“EC”) completely from TZ notwithstanding the fact that the primary reason for the involvement of EC in TZ as a shareholder was because of the indigenization and economic empowerment compliance obligations.\nIt is common cause that the government of Zimbabwe having born from the womb of a colonial state cannot claim any prejudice from the colonial dispensation yet the true effect and intend of the transaction is to permit rent seeking and maximization by fortunate state actors from the operations of entities under their control.\nThe proposed acquirer has no funds to make the acquisition other than using state power to raid the funds meant to provide financial security to the working people who involuntarily contribute to NSSA.\nIt is not unusual in failed states that state actors prey on their own constituents. For the EC to be a beneficiary of an equity stake in TZ, its shareholders had necessarily to be acceptable to the ruling elites. Clearly, this transaction would be unthinkable if the shareholders of EC were still considered to be politically connected.\nThe content and context of the correspondences by state actors about this transaction is telling as to what it now takes to rob US$40 million from the working class of Zimbabwe simply by creating a façade of some national interest in relation to dubious transactions. It exposes a fundamental departure from what is normally associated with developmental, accountable, responsible and responsive forms of rule.Advertisement"

"Incl. Instant Download\nincl. 19 % VAT, excl. Shipping\nDelivery outside of EU is 15,96% off.\nFormed in 2016, the Canadian trio of Nicolas Caloia (double bass), Yves Charuest (alto saxophone) and Karl Fousek (analog synthesizer) are exploring new potential in textured collective improvisation. The project combines Caloia and Charuest’s ecstatic acoustic instrumentation with Fousek’s stark analog synthesis, conjuring unpredictable interactions that touch upon as much melodic cadence and consonance as they do irregularity and silence. Residual Time comprises a single live take recorded in Montréal in 2016, showing the trio quickly hitting upon a raw group discourse greater than the sum of its parts.\n\nDouble bassist Nicolas Caloia has been making music in Montréal since the 1990s, playing extensively as a part of the local scene and playing with the likes of Marshall Allen, John Butcher, Joe McPhee, and Steve Lacy. Currently he’s a member of various ensembles, including In the Sea with Tristan Honsinger and Josh Zubot. Saxophonist Yves Charuest has a no-less impressive resumé, having played extensively since the 1980s, including stints with the Peter Kowald Trio, plus performances with William Parker, Nate Wooley, Roscoe Mitchell and Steve Noble to name a few. Karl Fousek has also garnered a stellar reputation in recent years, right at the forefront of fervent new explorations into synthesis. Largely utilising potent modular synthesis and custom-built software, Fousek has taken his music into a variety of contexts, garnering a vast array of releases and collaborative projects with Roger Tellier-Craig, Devon Hansen, Danny Clay, and more.\n\nThe one-shot live recording on Residual Time is a snapshot of a trio at the beginning of a journey right into the unknown. Traditional syntaxes of free improvisation already begin to disintegrate over a breezy half hour. Fousek brings striking alien synth noises directly into the organic field of acoustic improvisation, Caloia and Charuest quickly replying with compelling imitations. When it comes to the sonic reinventions and mutations of Caloia / Charuest / Fousek, this is only the beginning."

"People have been interested in genealogy for a long time, to wit, the Bible (from 2013, Endless genealogies, quoting Timothy). But one bogs down quickly with more than the mere brick wall. What were these people up to? What were their times like?\n\nHaving just gone through Dr. Frank's Massachusetts Magazine (2018, all issues) from cover to cover, I have acquired a little more understanding of one-hundred years ago, more or less. The last post (on Jedediah Smith - true mountain, and desert, man) looked at activities regarding western expansion which was post the jaunt of Lewis & Clark. Also, that post brought up the notion of a larger focus, namely: culture, history, technology (which includes genetics/genealogy). We will be discussing this, however a quote from an Oxford book of 1850, gives the proper view.\n\nA review of posts in this blog will show many devoted to issues of Whence (2014) and What we know (2012 - definitely needs to be updated). Since the start, we have had several of these types of posts on a subject that will still need some attention. One approach will be to gather what has been found so far so as to evaluate the information and sources. Nothing new there. It is work, but fun. There is a lot of material on the web regarding Thomas and Margaret and variations thereof. For instance, did Thomas have a sister named Rachel? In that case, I looked at this and tried to establish sources (2015, Rachel (Nobel) Gardner).\n\nOne post looked at the period around the arrival, briefly (2013, Plus or minus the arrival - I call this the cigarette posts as the time view of the reigns look like ascending smoke). That image shows the long reign of Elizabeth I. Her time overlapped the life of Thomas' father and his birth. Recently, I have started to dig deeper. Frankly, I was motivated by seeing an article on Elizabeth and the Spanish armada incident. In other publications, I read of the various players and places. But, I also noticed Dorset (2015, Sherborne) which is where son John said that they had come from. That lead to a bunch of reading, especially to get familiar with the counties involved, Dorset and the surrounding, such as Somerset, Devon, Wiltshire, and Hampshire.\n\nBut, too, I got a better appreciation for the geography of the War of Roses (2013, Origins - Motivations). I do not like how Game of Thrones has warped the story (only read 2 1/2 books - put it down, never watched any of the Hollywood renditions). But, then, I learned today that Shakespeare is considered a propagandists for the Tudors by historians. Nothing new, as the saying goes.\n\nBefore ending, that is Alfred the Great's territory. Of course, the Romans were there, earlier. There was a Sherborne Castle built in the time of William the Conqueror. I think Edward II had some type of confab there. It decayed and was destroyed during the Civil War. Oh yes, the next county has Stonehenge.\n\nLet's stop with a photo out of Dorset.\n\nWe expect to move this blog to be under TGSoc.org. Once we get the new blog set up, volunteers who want to help to move things over would be gladly acknowledged.\n\n07/17/2018 -- As we look at things related to western expansion, we need to remember the ones who were here prior to that event.",

"Red Octopus is the album that finally put Jefferson Airplane/Starship/Whatever back in the spotlight. Having both the wonderful Grace Slick and Marty Balin (who returned to the group full time) behind the microphone for the ’75 release, along with Paul Kantner and the revamped line-up of musicians, Red Octopus made the vocal sound of “Airplane” relevant again.\n\nAlthough I was never an avid fan of the huge (and heavily edited) hit single “Miracles,” feeling it a bit too “adult contemporary” for my tastes, I still savored the vocal interplay between Slick and Balin, and through the years, eventually grew to love the lengthier album version. I was also pleased to hear some high-caliber songwriting from Slick—indeed, the album contains “Fast Buck Freddie,” which Slick co-wrote with guitarist Craig Chaquico, “Play On Love,” a collaboration between Slick and bassist/keyboardist Pete Sears, and Slick’s own “Ai Garimasu (There Is Love),” with all three becoming some of my favorite “Grace songs” of the band’s career. Besides the aforesaid “Miracles,” the Balin-fronted tracks “Sweeter Than Honey” and “Tumblin'” were also fine slices of melodic rock, while “There Will Be Love” and “I Want to See Another World,” where the group’s trademarked “gang vocals” come into play, are also quite commendable.\n\nIn truth, however, I could have easily done without the pair of instrumentals (“Git Fiddler” and “Sandalphon”) appearing on the album—with Jefferson Starship having numerous songwriters in its line-up and two dynamic lead singers in the form of Slick and Balin, one would think the band might have whipped up some additional vocal tunes to further showcase their talents and satisfy fans of the crooning duo. After all, the male/female vocal interplay is what made each album from Jefferson Airplane or Jefferson Starship so special, so why include two less-than-spectacular instrumentals and deprive the fans of additional Slick/Balin chemistry?\n\nRegardless, with the revamped group hitting the big time thanks to Red Octopus, this insured its survival for many more years, despite numerous line-up changes and another name change/shortening that would eventually follow.",
null,
"Although likely never intended to set the world on fire with its overall creativity, 1989’s Jefferson Airplane reunion album (albeit without drummer Spencer Dryden) did present a golden opportunity for fans to revisit a sound long-missed, yet updated.\n\nFor me, hearing “Planes” (the opening track) felt like stumbling upon an acquaintance you haven’t spoken to for decades, and realizing how much you missed and truly cherished the timbre of their voice and their unique style.\n\nOf course, Grace Slick’s presence on any album has always been a thrill for me, and with her contributing her songwriting gifts and sharing vocal duties with Paul Kantner and Marty Balin (or even with Mickey Thomas during the Starship years) lent Jefferson Airplane a certain magic, so that element alone made this album enjoyable.\n\nAnd although this particular collection of songs ended up being no stirring “Crown Of Creation, Part 2” or no revolutionary “Volunteers Revisited,” for example, it did contain enough melodic and catchy gems—”True Love,” “Madeleine Street,” “Freedom,” “Summer of Love,” “The Wheel,” “Now Is The Time,” the aforementioned “Planes,” and the truly exceptional “Solidarity”—that I’ve found myself replaying it through the years nearly as often as the band’s classic releases from the ’60s.",
null,
"When the legendary Grace Slick took a break from Jefferson Starship after the band’s less-than-spectacular Earth album in 1978, she released two above-average solo collections before returning to the band—Dreams in 1980 and, the following year, Welcome to the Wrecking Ball.\n\nThis latter album proved itself unique among all of Grace’s solo efforts since, instead of being the expected mixture of Pop Rock, Psychedelic Rock, AOR, and Folk Rock, it contained stripped-down, back-to-basics, guitar-oriented Hard Rock material, with some songs even bordering on Heavy Metal, thanks mainly to the contributions of guitarist/arranger Scott Zito, who composed all of the tracks either by himself or with Grace as co-writer.\n\nTherefore, due to the album’s hard-rockin’ style on tracks such as “Sea of Love,” “Wrecking Ball,” “No More Heroes,” “Shot in the Dark,” “Mistreater,” and “Shooting Star,” with blazing guitars, a pounding rhythm section, and Grace belting out wickedly sardonic lyrics throughout many of the tracks, Welcome to the Wrecking Ball ended up becoming my favorite of her solo releases.",
null,
"I find that 1974’s Dragon Fly is a rather underrated and occasionally forgotten platter, probably not too surprising considering it was one of the “transition” albums between two bands, Jefferson Airplane and Jefferson Starship. After Paul Kantner’s “project” concept album Blows Against The Empire, which included Airplane alumni, four years passed before he recruited some additional musicians to release Dragon Fly, updating the band’s overall sound.\n\nTo me, this album is one of Jefferson Starship’s best, with the songs “That’s For Sure” and the rollicking title track—quickly to become a stable on FM radio stations—not only displaying the power of the revamped group’s trademarked gang vocals, but also the true potential of guitarist Craig Chaquico and violinist Papa John Creach. The melodic playing of bassist Pete Sears, creating a formidable rhythmic team with drummer John Barbata, proved highly impressive, while Grace Slick’s vocal performances on tracks such as “Devils Den,” “Hyperdrive” and “Be Young You” providing (as usual) the essential chills of excitement.\n\nBut it’s Marty Balin’s captivating “guest appearance” on the exceptional track “Caroline,” with Grace performing her stellar ad-libbed background vocals, that created the magic and most likely inspired the group to continue forward with Balin included in the permanent line-up, and eventually, to mega-success with its next album, the classic Red Octopus.",
null,
"After the band released its rather disappointing, “middle of the road” Earth album in 1978, Jefferson Starship revamped its lineup in the wake of both Marty Balin’s and Grace Slick’s exits, hiring the dynamic Mickey Thomas (The Elvin Bishop Band) as its new lead vocalist and also recruiting ace drummer Aynsley Dunbar (Journey/Jeff Beck/Frank Zappa). More importantly, instead of continuing on in the same musical direction, the band smartly hardened its sound and released one of its best albums.\n\nFreedom at Point Zero included the mega-hit “Jane,” along with the pounding and straightforward “Rock Music,” the beautiful ballad “Fading Lady Light,” and the kick-ass AOR gems “Just The Same” and the almost-proggish “Awakening,” which all showcase Mickey’s exceptional, breathtaking vocals. Incidentally, I also found it quite impressive that, in many respects—especially when the band employed its trademarked “Jefferson Airplane-ish” gang-vocal singing style on songs such as “Girl With the Hungry Eyes,” “Things To Come,” “Lightning Rose,” and the title track (which strongly reminds me of the band’s previously released “Ride The Tiger”)—Mickey Thomas, with his wide range, sounds almost exactly like Grace Slick, making her absence less “stinging” overall for longtime fans of the group who missed her presence.\n\nBe that as it may, this album thankfully rejuvenated the band and became the first in another series of highly successful albums (with Grace happily returning to the fold on the next release). Both this album, as well as Modern Times (released two years later), are probably my favorite albums from the group, no matter its various incarnations.",
null,
"Truthfully, I was more than a little skeptical when I found this album. What would Starship sound like in the new century, especially without the appearance of Grace Slick and (apart from Mickey Thomas) an entirely new line-up? Would the band be a mere shadow of its former self? After the horribly disappointing Love Among the Cannibals album (the group’s final release from back in 1989), would Starship be able to convince me that it even deserves to be around more than two decades later?\n\nI soon had my answers—Starship not only deserves to exist, but the group sounds like a solid, better-than-average AOR/Hard Rock band with Mickey delivering a wickedly wonderful (and gruffer than usual) performance, and has released an album with a large percentage of tracks being more than a tad enjoyable. And overall, when it comes to the songs, the band’s style, and the general production, this album sounds nothing like the old Starship. Indeed, I would have urged the band to change its name, thus starting afresh and avoiding any preconceived notions people might have.\n\nRegardless, if this collection of tracks had been released back in 1989 instead of Love Among the Cannibals, Starship might have continued as a viable force throughout the ’90s. This album impressed me so much that I actually listened to it twice in a row. A tremendous surprise. And a note to fans of the original Starship—as mentioned before, when hearing the opening track “It’s Not The Same As Love,” you may find yourself wondering if this really is Starship, since it’s the heaviest track the band (whatever its lineup) has ever produced. In fact, most of the rockers on this album would probably feel right at home were they to appear on any album by bands such as Talisman, Harem Scarem, Tyketto, or Pink Cream 69.\n\nThe bottom line? Starship in the 2000s shows great promise, with this album standing right up there alongside other fine AOR/Hard Rock albums from the past few decades. There’s a nice mixture of rollicking tracks, catchy mid-tempo tunes, and a few decent ballads. Mickey Thomas fans will be thrilled!"

"I love cars; I’ve always loved cars. They have fascinated me since I was a little kid. It all started simply enough. Cars are shiny; they go fast; they make cool sounds; there are a lot of interesting parts all working together, and they can take you to the coolest places. My Dad liked cars, and I guess I share his passion. I was pretty lucky growing up as my parents did pretty well, and we always took a big vacation every year. We always drove to our vacation destination; flying was reserved for business trips in those days or some emergency visit if something terrible had happened to one of the relatives.\n\nSo as far back as I can remember we piled in the car and drove across the country to whatever destination the folks had in mind. I learned early on that the journey was at least, if not more important, than the destination. I love to learn, and it was so interesting to see all of the different geography and cultures along the way. Growing up in El Paso, TX we lived in the desert. Mountains in West Texas are big rocky things covered in cactuses and other painful plants. But through the road trips I learned there were other types of mountains. There were mountains so big in Colorado that they had snow on them in July. What could possibly be cooler when you’re 10 years old, than getting out of the car at over 11,000 feet and playing in the snow for a few minutes in the middle of summer.\n\nMy Dad had been a navigator on a command ship in the Navy in the Pacific during World War II. Part of the fun of the road trip was planning and looking at the maps with Dad. He taught me how to read maps and navigate at a pretty early age. I don’t even remember a time when I could not read maps and plan out a route on my own. My Dad would eventually give me the job of planning our route and doing the navigation during our road trips. I thought that was pretty dang cool. Not only did I get to go to some pretty fascinating places, but I usually had an important job to do as part of the journey. I was 12 years old, and it was my job to help us get through Dallas. That was a rush; I did not want to let down my Dad.\n\nSo for me the car wasn’t just a mechanical thing. The car is adventure, learning, and opportunity. And then it happened. We were sitting in this A&W Root Beer stand in Alamogordo, New Mexico either on our way to, or back from, our cabin up in the mountains of New Mexico. In drove the coolest car I had ever seen in my life. It was a Dodge Charger, and it was loud! It was big; it had these raw curves that made me think about girls. It was like the hot girl in school. I just wanted to touch her, but I didn’t even know why yet. And the sound. I will never forget the sound; I could feel it in my chest. At that moment these machines took on a whole new level of fascination. They could give you primal, raw emotions. They were exhilaration!\n\nMy parents were pretty practical folks, so we never had a muscle car. It would be 40 years before I would sit in a muscle car of my own. Once I was out on my own, I was poor. I was a student, and in those days we didn’t take out student loans. Yes, my Mom and Dad helped me with some of the college expenses, but I had to make enough money to live and pay for the rest. So my first cars were pretty darn practical. In fact I never owned a car with more than four cylinders until I bought my first Jeep Wrangler in 2007. That had a V-6. To me, it seemed like it was a pretty powerful machine, and I loved my Wrangler because it could take me anywhere I wanted to go. Once again the car changed the way I felt. It represented freedom. As my business grew and my income grew, I finally took a step in 2013 from which I shall never recover. I bought my very first real American muscle car.\n\nIt was time to go shopping; it was time to get serious. I was not getting any younger. After much research I ordered a 2013 Dodge Challenger SRT with a 392 cubic inch Hemi engine. This car was built just for me with all of my specifications and options by one of the largest corporations on the planet. That was so cool! And every time I drive it, I think back to when I was sitting in the A&W in New Mexico and experiencing that Dodge Charger for the first time. It is raw exhilaration.\n\nSo now you know how I came to have this big, powerful, brash muscle car. But this is not the end of my story. I have really only told you why I got interested in cars and how I got my Challenger. I want to tie this together to help you understand why I really love cars.\n\nCars are culture; cars are history. Cars reflect pretty much everything about our society at the time they were built. As I have matured (some may argue differently), I have come to appreciate cars not just for the engineering and aesthetic experiences but for the cultural and historic perspectives that they bring along with them. This is why I love car shows. I’m sure a lot of folks think that car shows are a bunch of dudes sitting around bragging up their rides. It actually seems pretty shallow on the surface.\n\nThe reality is much different. All of us who show have a passion for the automobile, but almost all of us have expressed that passion in a different way. But that passion forms a common bond. Yeah, there is a little bit of sitting around and talking about the cars and bragging about what we have. But it’s what the cars represent to each of us that makes the car shows so fun and the cars so special. Everybody has a story. I know people who have restored cars that were owned by their grandparents. The grandparents are long gone, but the car is a memory of fond times long ago. Every time that person drives that car, or cleans it up for the show that person is reliving about all of the good experiences they had with their grandpa, or grandma.\n\nFor other people that show car might’ve been a family project that brought a father and son, or mother and daughter, together when maybe nothing else could. That car is a shared common interest representing a treasured family bond, not just a shiny piece of metal. It’s not the car, rather it is what the car represents. That’s part of what I mean when I say cars are culture.\n\nAt one show I saw an original 1960s Mini Cooper. In talking to the owner, I find out he was stationed in England back in the 60s (military service). So that British sports car is a symbol, a tangible embodiment of those fond memories from that time in that person’s life. And it’s interesting to see the contrast in the cultures from the same time period. Those 1960s European cars represented a time of frugality and recovery from a long period of war which ravaged most of the resources across Europe. England is a small country; it’s about the size of some of our medium-size states. Space and resources were at a premium, so those cars were designed to be efficient from an operating standpoint and small and nimble to accommodate the smaller roads and spaces in Europe. So when you look at an old Mini Cooper, you’re not just looking at an old Mini Cooper. You’re looking at what that car says about the culture and the history of the times in which it was produced. It speaks about the optimism for the future intertwined with the practicality of limited resources and space. The car is a microcosm of the culture and events of its day.\n\nContrast that with the classic American muscle car of the mid-60s to the early 1970s. Other than Hawaii, and a couple of isolated incidents in the Alaska islands, there was no war on American soil from which we had to recover. Our country spans an entire continent from ocean to ocean. In the context of the 1960s and early 1970s our resources seemed nearly infinite. It was the might of the American economy that rescued Europe from the clutches of the fascist dictators. While the Europeans were being frugal with their assets and their limited resources, we were strutting our stuff. That Dodge Charger was everything that Mini Cooper was not. It was big and bold. It was loud and brash. It was not economical in any sense of the word. It was a statement that said, “America is the king of the world, and we want everybody to know it.” Those muscle cars can tell you almost everything you wanted to know about the 60s and early 1970s in America. There was unbridled optimism; there was rebellion. There was technology that was new and exciting. Remember we went to the moon in 1969. The moon!! The baby boomers were becoming a force, and they wanted everybody to know. America really was the king of the hill, and it was evident in our designs of the day.\n\nSo for me the car really is culture, history, excitement, adventure and learning all rolled into one. Car shows are a time to come together with folks who have the same passion where we can all talk about our lives and what brought us to have that car we’re showing. Because for all of us they represent something in our past that makes us smile. When I get in my Challenger and I see those big hips in the side mirrors and then step on the gas, I smile because I am once again sitting in that A&W experiencing the raw excitement of my youth.",

"That’s the argument lawyers for actress Allison Mack are making in their latest effort to get sex trafficking and forced labor charges against the “Smallville” star tossed out of Brooklyn Federal Court.\n\nMack and Nxivm leader Keith Raniere are accused of duping women into joining a master-slave group by getting them to hand over damaging “collateral” like naked photos of themselves and accusations against their loved ones, then forcing them to work for free and have sex with Raniere.\n\nBut in court papers filed Friday, Mack’s lawyers argue that the threat of releasing those photos and statements doesn’t rise to the threat of “serious harm” required to prove someone engaged in forced labor.\n\n“The government argues that Ms. Mack obtained forced labor through ‘threats of serious harm,’ with serious harm being the embarrassment that would result from the exposure of one’s collateral,” her lawyers write.\n\n“Courts have found, however, that such an outcome, albeit embarrassing, does not amount to serious harm under the statute.”\n\nThey cite a 2009 case in which a couple unsuccessfully tried to sue the Church of Scientology for forced labor.\n\n“The court did not find that plaintiffs were compelled to remain in the organization even though, if they chose to leave, they would be ‘excommunicated’ from their friends and family and labeled a ‘dissenter,'” Mack’s lawyers write.\n\n“The threat of reputational damage and isolation from loved ones therefore did not qualify as serious harm.”\n\nMack’s lawyers argue the circumstances of this case bear “no relation” to other cases where forced labor was found, like “squalid living conditions, extreme isolation, threats of physical harm, lack of immigration status, lack of education, and unfamiliarity with English.”\n\nNvixm’s alleged victims were “educated, English-speaking adults, who were not forced or compelled to join the organization, nor kept physically isolated, and who could leave the organization at any time,” they argue."

"Watch him in all his Stabby Stabby action!\n\nBy the looks from some of the xml tags on the site, it looks like the game will have 5 zones.\n\nThis is just bizarre. Anyway, cheers to the keen eyes of the Hawkz!\n\nSonic in a car again! Didn’t they learn from Drift!?\n\nA 6 year old Norwegian child by the name of Christer had his hopes crushed recently by the King of Norway who he wrote to asking for his name to be changed to ‘Sonic X’. The child, a fan of the Japanese Anime of the same name, wrote a letter to King Harold V but his parents thought common sense would prevail and were at first reluctant to post it.\n\nSeveral months passed until Christer finally begged them to send it and amazingly once they did they received a reply. King Harold V wrote back stating that he couldn’t change the child’s name yet as he was under the age of 18 but that if he asked again some 12 years later he would happily change it then.\n\nChrister, forlorn at the bad news and long wait ahead of him told Norwegian website dagbladet.no that the decision “was a bit bad.”\n\nAlls well that ends well though as Sega have actually tried to make contact with Christer through the website in question to send him some Sonic X Goodies to cheer him up.\n\nThanks to Psyguy of the SSMB for digging up this gem"

"Apart from a tiny, one-paragraph mention in a press release about the Honda show stand in general, the company hasn't said very much about its completely charming S660 Concept. The model would seem very much to be a look ahead at a possible successor to the Beat kei car for Japanese customers, though we've been told that we shouldn't expect any kind of translation or product for the American market (despite certain key executives wanting more sports cars in the US).\n\nHonda tells us only that the S660 roadster features \"advanced styling\" and \"new initiatives such as Super cockpit interior.\" We do think that the confines of the S660 look particularly driver-focused, with a carbon fiber steering wheel clad in soft leather, very racy looking vented seats and instruments tilted to keep the pilot constantly informed.\n\nHonda President and CEO, Takanobu Ito, also touched on the S660 in his remarks at the press conference, saying that the model \"embodies the freewheeling thinking of young Honda engineers, who want to make a cool car that is unique to Honda.\" Takanobu also said that the concept will be developed into a production model for 2015, which is great news for Japanese drivers.\n\nFind the very brief mention of the S660 in Honda's press release below, as well as the excerpted remarks from the CEO relevant to the car.\n\nAt this motor show, with the booth concept of \"Live Outside the Box,\" Honda will propose its original mobility products generated from Honda's innovative inspirations unbound by precedent or conventional wisdom. Models on display include the Honda S660 CONCEPT, an open-top sports-type mini-vehicle, the NSX CONCEPT, the next-generation super sports model and the all-new UNI-CUB, a personal mobility device developed under the theme of \"harmony with people.\"\n\nMoreover, at the automobile section, Honda will exhibit the world premiere of the N-WGN, the 4th model of the N Series of mini-vehicles, as well as the world premiere of the planned production model of the second model of the Global Compact Series which is based on the URBAN SUV CONCEPT, unveiled at the 2013 North American International Auto Show in January of this year. This model will be officially announced in Japan in December of this year. In addition, a number of mass-production models also will be on display including the highly acclaimed all-new Accord Plug-in Hybrid and Fit equipped with Earth Dreams Technology, Honda's new-generation powertrain technologies which realize both the fun of driving and excellent fuel economy at a high level.\n\nAlso on display at the motorcycle section will be a number of models including several planned production models such as the Dunk, a new style 50 cc scooter equipped with a newly-developed liquid-cooled engine and the CB1300 SUPER BOL D'OR whose attractiveness was further enhanced through the adoption of LED headlights and a 6-speed transmission.\n\nCovering the largest floor area of any single brand at the show, the Honda booth will showcase a diverse lineup of products unique to Honda.\n\nStriving to realize the joy and freedom of mobility and a sustainable society where people can enjoy life, Honda will continue taking on new challenges to create new mobility and continue offering dream-inspiring products for its customers.\n\n[Automobiles]\nHonda S660 CONCEPT: The next-generation open-top sports-type mini-vehicle that features a dynamic and advanced styling design as well as various new initiatives such as a Super cockpit interior that thoroughly pursues the ultimate space for the driver.\n\n(Excerpted remarks about the S660 Concept):\n\n\"And now, Honda will realize a mid-ship sports model in the small car segment as well.\n\nThis model embodies the freewheeling thinking of young Honda engineers, who want to make a cool car that is unique to Honda. Our engineers are devoting their passion and technologies to the development of this model toward the start of mass-production in 2015.\""

"The thirteen papers in Structural Analysis of Discrete Data are previously unpublished major research contributions solicited by the editors. They have been specifically prepared to fulfill the two-fold purpose of the volume, first to provide the econometrics student with an overview of the present extent of the subject and to delineate the boundaries of current research, both in terms of methodology and applications. “Coordinated publication of important findings” should, as the editors state, “lower the cost of entry into the field and speed dissemination of recent research into the graduate econometrics classroom.”\n\nA second purpose of the volume is to communicate results largely reported in the econometrics literature to a wider community of researchers to whom they are directly relevant, including applied econometricians, statisticians in the area of discrete multivariate analysis, specialists in biometrics, psychometrics, and sociometrics, and analysts in various applied fields such as finance, marketing, and transportation.\n\nGet Charles F.Manski, Daniel Mcfadden – Structural Analysis of Discrete Data and Econometrics at Wishcourse.com with the best price.

"In his chemistry departmental office at Carleton University, Prof. J David Miller tries to identify where it all started. Before he participated in or chaired expert panels of the WHO, the US FDA, AIHA, AAAAI, or the World Bank; before he partnered with Health Canada and Environment Canada to establish health policy; and much before he became a Professor and NSERC Research Chair at Carleton in 2000. Miller identifies three elements that founded his interests in fungal metabolites, starting with an early introduction to fungal metabolites in what his father’s job (chemist and brew-master at Moosehead Breweries in Saint John). Miller attributes the other two elements to exceptional organic chemistry training, and introduction to inspiring mycologist Norman Whitley while pursuing his undergraduate at the University of New Brunswick.\n\nMiller’s interests in fungal metabolites further intensified during his graduate studies, as he examined interference competition; “why some fungi don’t get along; why some appear and some don’t, or why some result in animal morbidity.” Subsequently, while completing his postdoctoral work, Miller was offered a job at Agriculture Canada where he led the Fusarium mycotoxin program, examining toxins growing in the Canadian grain systems—“and that really matters,” Miller emphasizes. Mycotoxin contamination of crops has a very large economic consequence to the agri-food systems, and particularly in developing countries has very important public health implications.\n\nHe says, you need passion.\n\nMiller chaired a working group of world-leading experts convened by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) who recently published on critical health complications from exposure to aflatoxins and fumonisin— both are mycotoxins produced by molds. Exposure to mycotoxins much above regulatory guidelines substantially increases mortality and morbidity, and can cause acute poisoning, cancer, and, most recently noted, is a contributor to stunted growth in children of affected populations. The working group published recommendations to reduce exposure in developing countries in the report Mycotoxin Control in Low- and Middle-Income Countries. In an interview with Carleton University, Miller stated that, “improving mycotoxin control could have a far-reaching health benefit. It is time to put the existing knowledge and technology into action to control mycotoxin food contamination in low-income countries.”\n\nMiller’s long-term fundamental interest in fungal metabolites applies to various ecosystems and populations, including people, animals, and insects, as related to mortality, morbidity, or increasing allergic response, “it’s all the same [question]: what are the chemicals that these fungi make, and what do they do?”\n\nAnd he says, you need to be persistent.",

"Miller is interested in large unanswered questions that are important to public health. “They take a long time, but they’re important, and that’s the challenge that I’m interested in.” Miller recalled epidemiological data that emerged in Canada in 1989/90 that showed that children who lived in moldy houses would be more likely to develop allergies to everything; “and that made no sense, so no one believed it. And I thought, ‘that’s either completely wrong, or there’s something we don’t understand.’ The short answer is, it was true.” The mechanism took over 20 years to find, but this information has allowed the guidelines used in industrial hygiene, public health and more recently for clinicians to better advise their patients.\n\nMiller has served on many national and international committees regarding built environment mold and dampness. He currently serves on the American Academy of Allergy Asthma & Immunology committee producing practice parameters for environmental allergens. Additionally, he is an elected member of the International Academy of Indoor Air Sciences, and a Fellow of the American Industrial Hygiene Association. His expertise in indoor air quality and mold connected him with Dr. Tom Kovesi, Research Institute Pediatric Respirologist of Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO). Together with the community members of Cape Dorset, Nunavut, Miller and Kovesi investigated the association between indoor air quality and respiratory health. Specifically, Inuit infants have extremely high rates of lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI), and examining data on the indoor air quality of their housing identified and classified risk factors for LRTI. This preliminary study enabled a much larger study of many communities as well as a ventilation intervention study. The results highlighted that low per person ventilation was a major risk factor but more importantly allowed officials to support the investment of improved ventilation systems within the homes.\n\nIn the case of Nunavut, the research team knew there was a problem, and felt that the existing common wisdom wasn’t plausible. It took a lot of time, resources, and efforts to find an answer, but “the research had to be done.”\n\nAnd he says you need to be genuinely curious.",

"After a 20-year collaboration and partnership with J.D. Irving Ltd. (JDI), the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council (NSERC) announced the 2015 NSERC Synergy Award for Miller following their discoveries that will reduce impacts of the eastern spruce budworm on North American forests. The eastern spruce budworm is the most damaging forest insect in the country, with a historical outbreak affecting 50 million hectares. Miller’s work with JDI led to the discovery of an insect toxic strain of endophytes, a natural fungi, in the needles of conifer seedlings in the Acadian forest. The endophytes can be transmitted to seedlings as they grow from a ground surrounded by cast needles from mature trees; these seedlings grow into trees with an increased tolerance to the spruce budworm. Foresters now have an effective and environmentally sustainable tool. In his interview with Carleton, Miller noted, that “none of this would have been possible without lots of different kinds of expertise. This award reflects a lot of work by a lot of people over a long of time.” Further, he acknowledges that an interdisciplinary approach to research is critical to produce significant results; “Science is a team sport.”\n\nFor Miller, it’s always been about asking questions, getting resources, and finishing a commitment. He also stresses the success that will inherently follow from asking the right question. “When you have no idea why something is happening, … you have to ask the right question at the beginning, get an answer, and make a decision about what the next question will be.”\n\nWhen Miller is asked which project has left a lasting impression, he shakes his head and says that there’s not simply one that stands above the others. “It still matters to me that I’m working on something that will make a difference. I do this because it matters.” His continued inspiration and motivation comes from the desire to “improve lives and impact people… I don’t know why else we would do it.”"

"When Professor Michael Blakey examined the bones of human skeletons from two historic slave cemeteries in the Bonnet Carre’ Spillway, he recognized them as people who endured hard labor, poor health and diet.\n\nThe Kugler and Kenner cemeteries at the spillway are named for the former property owners, and are located about a mile apart in the spillway on land bought by the federal government. Plowed over for the spillway control structure, forgotten and rediscovered in 1986, the cemeteries are now listed on the National Register of Historic Places.\n\nHis examination of dental remains showed the slaves were generally unhealthy and on a diet of mostly starchy foods, including flour, corn, peas, yams, potatoes, sugar, rum and salted fish.\n\nA former Howard University archaeology professor and current National Endowment for the Humanities professor at the College of William and Mary in Williamsburg, Va., Blakey hopes a more thorough study of the remains is done.\n\n“Much of the written record of the former enslaved has been neglected,” he said. “Archaeology is what is used to uncover this record. The living people are not here, but the remains are.”\n\nHe’s seen it before in the skeletons of sugar plantation slaves in the British Virgin Islands, and their remains reminded him of those found in the Bonnet Carre’ Spillway.\n\n“The remains were striking,” Blakey said. “I remember them very well. These were people who lived a life of arduous labor, there’s no doubt about that.”\n\nOverall evidence show women working harder and harder during the 18th century, he said. Use of male slaves became more restricted, likely by Virginia slaveholders to control them as they became associated with rebellion. A large percentage of men were sent to the South, and some were buried in these cemeteries.\n\nToday, they are grassy fields and now under the floodwaters of the Mississippi River, which the Corps of Engineers’ archaeologist assesses after every flood recedes to ensure the two cemeteries, dating back to the 1800s, aren’t exposed.\n\nNearly 300 African Americans are buried there, many believed to have been enslaved at nearby plantations, according to Corps officials.\n\nA Corps master plan is being considered that would call for placing plaques and markers in the area, which Boyett said would be aimed at making the area more visitor friendly. There is no timeline yet on when the markers might be installed.\n\n“When we discovered there were cemeteries there, there were remains,” he said. “They’ll be reinterred once we have the plan.”\n\nBoyett said operating the Bonnet Carre’ brings attention again to the cemeteries, which are important cultural and historic sites. Evidence indicates that the cemeteries were still being used post slavery.",

"In 2012, when the Corps of Engineers sought public input in the plan, Margie Richard of Destrehan said her grandmothers and great-grand parents were buried there and called the plan long overdue. She is among 130 known descendants the Corps documented at the time of whom were invited to the public hearing, which was held to discuss ways to memorialize the cemeteries that can withstand flooding waters when the spillway is deployed.\n\nRichard told the Corps, “We are looking at a part of history that would die. I think it’s been overlooked too long.”\n\nOlivia Julien has a goal to spread messages of hope across the Hale Boggs Bridge, and she is one step closer to achieving that goal after this month’s St. Charles Parish Council meeting. […]\n\nAmelie Gautreaux and Mia Stewart were crowned this month when eight women vied for the titles of Teen and Miss Alligator Festival. […]"

"Full disclosure: A preview copy of Dreams of Tomorrow was provided by Weird Giraffe Games. Some art, gameplay, or other aspects of the game may change between this preview and the fulfillment of the Kickstarter, should it fund, as this is a preview of a currently unreleased game.\n\nI’ve spent most of the month doing Essen / Gen Con work, but like I did with Lovelace & Babbage (and will do with Zoo-ography), I do try to make some room for Kickstarter games in my schedule. My schedule’s currently swamped until November, but there’s room in it somewhere. That said, I can always find some time to try and look at the latest game from Carla and Weird Giraffe Games; they’ve been having a pretty solid year, what with Stellar Leap fulfilling and Fire in the Library doing so well on Kickstarter. How does their latest release measure up?\n\nIn Dreams of Tomorrow, you’ve had a bit of a rough time and the world is ending. Good news, no more traffic; bad news, no more you, either. Bit of a mixed bag. The only way to stop it is to inspire people way back in the past through their dreams so that they can work to change their future (your present). Use the dreams abilities or weave them into sequences, either works, but you don’t have much time; will you be able to engineer a better tomorrow?\n\nGame’s actually pretty easy to set up. Set the Rondel cards out for your player count. They have a front and a back side, but place them front-side-up in order from 1 to 4:\n\nThese cards are referred to as Consciousness Fragments, and they form the Collective Consciousness, which is the space you’ll be playing in.\n\nNext, form the Dreamscape by drawing Dream cards for the number of players you have:",

"So in Dreams of Tomorrow, you want to score points by catching Dreams and weaving them into sequences. Matching up certain colors of Dreams will create Resonance, which will score you even more points. Once a player has woven 5 Dreams, the final round occurs and the player with the most points at the end wins.\n\nTo get to that point, we have to start with your first dream. Each player has 6 Experience, and must now take their first Dream for free. Start with the Starting Player and go clockwise as each player claims a dream from the Dreamscape (and then refills it). For your first game, since you likely don’t know what any of the abilities mean, you can kind of just draw random ones from the deck, if you want. Either way, there’s a cost in the upper-right corner (not the star; that’s how many points its worth). It’s the one with the Experience icon; have each player lose Experience equal to that icon’s value.",
null,
"Now that you’ve done that, the game can begin! The first thing you’ll do on your turn is move, and this movement system has a lot in common with EmperorS4’s rondel games, Mystery of the Temples and Discovery: The Era of Voyage. The eight spaces in the Collective Consciousness form a rondel, and you can move clockwise (unless your character has the ability to switch). You move as follows:\n\nThis extension-for-resources only applies during this phase; some other abilities may let you move but you cannot pay more resources to move farther as a result of those cards. Either way, once you finish that, you’ll land on a space. The spaces have several potential actions:\n\nThat’s essentially the whole of it! Some abilities let you move around or flip cards in the Collective Consciousness; if you do that, any players on the card stay on their spaces.",
null,
"Play continues until one player has added a fifth Dream to their Dream Sequence. When that happens, continue the round until every player has taken an equal number of turns (if the last player is the first to add a fifth Dream, the game ends after their turn). Now, you move on to scoring. Scoring works in two ways:\n\nAdd up the Resonance Scores with the Dream Card values and the player with the most points wins!",
null,
"If you’re looking for a more chaotic game, add in the Night Mare! This bad horse tears through the Collective Consciousness, changing everything around. You’ll use the solo mode cards for this, but essentially after the last player’s turn, the Night Mare will act (and move around some of the cards in the Collective Consciousness). The Night Mare’s next turn moves up counterclockwise in the turn order (so its first turn is after Player 4, its next turn is after Player 3, and so on). I believe that in a two-player game, this means that the Night Mare takes a turn after every player, which makes the game … pretty volatile.\n\nSo the primary difference is that you play with a different rondel at higher player counts, as you need to make sure you’re not getting overrun with resources when it’s not your turn. That’s pretty much the only difference, and that’s not a huge one, in my opinion. The major reason I have a slight preference for lower player counts is just that there’s less downtime between my turns. This is addressed somewhat because you still get resources when it’s not your turn, but I like to do things, so I’d probably lean towards playing this more at 4 or fewer players.",
null,
"Overall, I liked Dreams of Tomorrow! Once you get through learning all the Dream Abilities and what their icons mean, the game is pretty straightforward to understand. It’s a bit of an optimization problem and a bit of a deck skimming problem at the same time, with some cool set collection elements. That said, I’d be doing everyone a disservice if I didn’t mention the fantastic art — James is really crushing it with these different pieces of the Dreamscape and they’re just absolutely fantastic. Weird Giraffes has another fun game on their hands, and if you like rondels, great art, some set collection, or the idea of saving the future, Dreams of Tomorrow is a fun game worth checking out! I’ve enjoyed it."

"Should police get to view bodycam footage immediately?",
null,
"ATLANTA: The use of body cameras by police has become more widespread, but there remain inconsistencies in how law enforcement agencies around the country deal with the footage, raising concerns among community activists who look to the videos to bring greater transparency to how police interact with citizens.\n\nA new report by the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights and Upturn Research to be released Tuesday shows that the vast majority of the nation’s largest police departments allow officers to view the footage before writing a police report or being questioned by investigators during use-of-force cases. The group believes that policy undermines police credibility and runs the risk of influencing how the officer describes what happened.\n\nRather than ensuring their account is accurate, the advocacy groups say, “reviewing footage — consciously or not — can distort what officers claim to remember and what they write in their reports. Reports aided by footage review are ultimately less accurate, because they no longer capture an officer’s own independent recollection of events.”\n\nBut law enforcement officials and some experts say it’s important to have officers view the footage beforehand to ensure that police accounts of incidents are accurate. An officer’s perceptions of what transpired can be skewed by natural human reactions in stressful situations that can affect what they see, hear and even smell, and the video is invaluable in being a reality check. They also worry that body cameras will often capture things not seen by an officer — and vice versa, that an officer may see things with their peripheral vision that isn’t picked up by the camera.\n\n“They want to be as accurate as they can. This specter that every time an officer looks at the video they’re going to lie and adapt their statement just is infuriating because we want the officers to write the most accurate report they can,” said Lance LoRusso, a former police officer who is now a lawyer in metro Atlanta and represents officers in court.",

"What an incredible book. So fast paced I couldn’t put it down: in about three hours I was breathless, shaking, and desperate for a sequel. I knew a twist was coming when there was so few pages left and so much that had to be resolved… but I didn’t expect it to end like THAT.",

"When Earth intercepts a message from a long-extinct alien race, it seems like the solution the planet has been waiting for. The Undying’s advanced technology has the potential to undo environmental damage and turn lives around, and Gaia, their former home planet, is a treasure trove waiting to be uncovered.\n\nFor Jules Addison and his fellow scholars, the discovery of an alien culture offers unprecedented opportunity for study… as long as scavengers like Amelia Radcliffe don’t loot everything first. Mia and Jules’ different reasons for smuggling themselves onto Gaia put them immediately at odds, but after escaping a dangerous confrontation with other scavvers, they form a fragile alliance.\n\nIn order to penetrate the Undying temple and reach the tech and information hidden within, the two must decode the ancient race’s secrets and survive their traps. But the more they learn about the Undying, the more their presence in the temple seems to be part of a grand design that could spell the end of the human race…\n\nI loved everything about this book. The characters were fabulous: I was instantly connected both with Jules and Amelia, despite them being so different. While both started with somewhat selfish goals, they were shown to be more selfless than was shown on. They made me feel for them, and the plight of our planet Earth, which had declined so far.\n\nThe authors truly managed to create a compelling world. Using a catastrophe of such a massive scale to turn mankind’s eyes away from the stars, to scorn curiosity and search only for short-term relief; that was insanely clever. We can see that Kaufman and Spooner have such a smart view of anthropology and archaeology, looking back on our own species as scientists. Weaving math into a new language was brilliant.\n\nIf there was one thing I can groan about, it’s the stretched out internal monologues. Sometimes I just wanted to say “we get it!” to Jules, reminding us about all his father lost, and how much the earth could lose; or to Amelia, going on about her harsh life and her sister’s terrifying contract. It did help us understand the plight of the characters, but might have been overdrawn.\n\nBut the description was incredible. All of the action takes place away from earth, and the worldbuilding is stunning. Fantastic imagery that makes the book a fully immersive read.\n\nThe logic tests were fun to follow, and I can see why many people have called this book Indiana Jones in space. I need a movie of this, and a sequel!"

"A member of the Army I Corps band plays \"Taps\" at a memorial service for U.S. Army Spc. Brittany Gordon, Wednesday, Nov. 14, 2012, at Joint Base Lewis McChord, Wash. Gordon was killed in Afghanistan by a suicide bomber.\n\nShare\nThe epidemic of suicide in the US military corresponds with the US involvement in parallel wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. But the latest figures confirm a confusing fact: Most soldiers who kill themselves have never deployed to a combat zone, and the vast majority have never been in battle at all. Frontline reporter Sarah Childress examines what's behind the statistic. The stereotype of the soldier who kills himself–a combat veteran plagued by post-traumatic stress -– is a familiar one to Craig Bryan, the associate director of the National Center of Veterans' Studies at the University of Utah. \"That is the storyline that we have created in our society because it's a simple storyline and it intuitively makes sense,\" he says. \"The problem is that the data doesn't support the notion that it is as simple as combat leads directly to suicide risk.\" Last year, 53 percent of service members who killed themselves had no history of deployment, according to the Defense Department's most recent data. And about 85 percent of military members who took their lives had no direct combat history, meaning they may have been deployed but not seen action. Suicide is complex, so there's no simple explanation for why these service members are killing themselves in greater numbers. But experts who have studied the problem say that one factor may be the pressure from the back-to-back wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. \"Life in the military these days is stressful, whether you're in a combat zone or not,\" says Bryan. \"We're increasingly asking our military personnel to do more with less … And even when you're here in the United States, even if you're not in a combat zone, things aren't necessarily easy.\" Bryan has nearly completed a three-year study of the root causes of suicide in the military. He says stress levels across the military began rising in 2004, as did the suicide rate–even among those who hadn't deployed to Iraq or Afghanistan. \"In recent years the number who suicide without ever having deployed has actually increased,\" according to Dr. Elspeth Ritchie, formerly the top psychiatrist at the Army Surgeon General's office, and currently chief medical officer for the District of Columbia's mental health department. \"The issues are complex, but one of the things that's clear is that it's not just about an individuals' deployment history. Dr. Ritchie's research has found another risk factor often overlooked is the history of that soldier's unit–even if the soldier is a new recruit. \"It's the unit's deployment history that is very important, in that if a unit has deployed time and time again, they might not have time to take care of new soldiers, to nurture the new soldiers, and to do the other bonding and strengthening events that they used to do, which may lead an individual soldier who's feeling more lost and left out to suicide,\" Ritchie says. Kim Ruocco, who directs suicide outreach at the nonprofit Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors, or TAPS, said this is a sadly familiar story. She worked with the family of a young man in the Navy who took his life. He had injured his knee in basic training, and still hadn't fully healed after multiple surgeries. His unit deployed without him. \"He then went to roll call day after day in the morning, and then they stopped calling his name. And so he stopped going to roll call,\" she said. \"And started to feel like he didn't belong, at all. That he wasn't part of the unit, that he wasn't needed, he wasn't valued, that there was no purpose for him and he was never going to heal.\" Then, Ruocco says, he faced another setback, getting in trouble for skipping roll call. \"His peers called him and said you know, you're really in trouble, and he killed himself before they could get over and charge him with anything. He had been in the military for only two years but had struggled all the way from basic training.\" Ruocco says military culture is highly resistant to mental health counseling, because service members are trained to be tough, to handle their own problems. That can compound the stigma for those who haven't deployed to a war zone, but need help. The military says it's trying to change that. It's held training sessions on suicide prevention for service members and introduced screening for depression at routine physicals. The Army also launched a $50 million study of mental health in 2009 – the largest it has ever done – to better understand the risks and factors that lead to military suicides. It's due to be completed in 2014."

"“I enjoy like a kid. Currently I add more than 900 games. I want to reach 1,000,” he said in an interview published this Tuesday in ‘L’Équipe’ the goalkeeper of Lazio Pepe Reina, 38 years old.\n\nIn the run-up to taking on another of his teams, the Bayern Munich, in the round of 16 of the Champions League, the Spaniard also recalled that the Champions has a debt with his family: to win the maximum continental trophy. His father, Miguel Reina, was about to win it in 1974 as the goal of Atlético de Madrid and he, for the moment, did not succeed either.\n\n“The Champions League owes us a Cup to the Reina family. If it’s not me, let it be my son, God willing. I hope I can play and win it for all three,” said the Lazio goalkeeper, who lost at the service of the Liverpool the 2007 Champions final against Milan.\n\nWorld champion in 2010 with the Spanish team, Pepe Reina has led the Lazio, his eighth professional club, to the last 16 of the top European tournament 20 years after the last time. For the Barcelona youth squad, responsibilities and pressure increase with age.\n\n“When you are 18 years old you do not reflect. A failure can condemn you, but you think about it much less than at 38 years old. Over the years, people expect more of you,” he said.\n\nCurrently with 176 games in European competitions, Reina only has Cristiano Ronaldo (183) and Iker Casillas (186) ahead.\n\n“Cristiano will play many more games. He is inaccessible. My goal is to overcome Iker, although it must be admitted that he played all or almost all in the Champions League. I have a few in the Europa League, but I am very proud of that number”, Held.\n\nIn his two decades as a professional, the Lazio goalkeeper has seen the tactical and technical evolution of his position. “With a game that tends more for goalkeepers to play more with their feet, soccer has evolved into a type of game that benefits me,” he said.\n\nThe goalkeeper said that he was about to sign for Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) in 2017 and recalled the final he lost to Milan in 2007, as Liverpool goalkeeper.\n\n“Normally, there is always a rematch but I have been able to have mine, even though I thought I would play another final (of the Champions League). Why not this year? It costs nothing to dream!”"

"Harry Kinds‘ “As It Was” stays the largest tune on the earth, because it provides a second week at No. 1 on the Billboard World 200 and Billboard World Excl.

"The west-coast’s very own, Eric Bellinger returns, having finally released his latest studio album, Eazy Calls. The album comes after Bellinger’s diss track, ‘Yikes’, which is aimed at Tory Lanez, in response to the insult aimed towards himself on Tory’s track, ‘Hate to Say’. Eazy Calls was promo-ed at the end of the diss track, promoting the release date of the 6th.\n\nThe album consists of 15 tracks that will surely be accompanying fans throughout Summer ’18. With the likes of R&B veterans, Ma$e and Ne-Yo featuring on the track-list, the album has a lot to live up to.\n\nVibestyle rates the album a 7/10, the west coast singer’s album is great in offering something with a summer vibe, with a few outstanding tracks that have an upbeat tempo, nor does the album disappoint in it’s features – but where this album loses out is the lack of lyrical finesse that Bellinger exhibits in his ‘Yikes’ track, or his previous albums.\n\nPersonally, I believe that the best bodies of work are those that incorporate an oxymoronic feel into the forefront of their work. I feel that the sense of contradictory content is the way forwards, as in this respect, Bellinger mostly uses sharp instrumentals with a hard beat, whereas his voice and lyrics tend to be the complete opposite. To me, this makes the experience of listening so much more significant and refreshing. Adding to that, most of the successful productions that you see nowadays (no matter the industry) carry that same oxymoronic vibe, such as Marvel’s Black Panther, with the raw native African aesthetic against the focus of advanced technology."

"The closest place to Karratha to look for shorebirds is a small rocky area known as Back Beach where people regularly fish and use the boat ramp to go out into the bay. Once the tide drops there is mud exposed where we have seen the shorebirds feed, but we have found the most concentrated birds on high tide. There were over 250 shorebirds there on a recent high tide and a nice mix of species. The road ends at the rocky car park and from there you will undoubtedly see a flock of Silver Gulls. Look carefully, as there may be more than Silver Gulls….",
null,
"We have observed over the years that Common Sandpipers love to place themselves in a shady spot during the high tide, which other shorebirds do not appear to do. I wrote about this observation in the past at Barred Creek and we continue to observe it around the north of Australia. This bird was under the rock and we had not initially seen it, but it soon popped out with its bobbing tail.",
null,
"As we walked along the tide edge we suddenly realised we were being watched by 8 Pied Oystercatchers and they really were well camouflaged amongst the rocks despite their orange bills.",
null,
null,
"Further along we discovered more shorebirds and there were more arriving to join the flock due to the presence of fishermen. The male Bar-tailed Godwit are already starting to show the change in their plumage as they prepare for their migration north to breed in coming months.",
null,
"The flock increased further adding to it Grey-tailed Tattler and Grey Plover on the right.",
null,
"Our short walk at high tide had been very productive for shorebirds and also the sight of hundreds of Oriental Pratincoles rising through the thermals is one of the joys we experience in the north of Australia at the moment. A Crested Tern was also roosting amongst the rocks as we headed back and a Caspian Tern flew by over the ocean.",
null,
"An Eastern Osprey was resting after consuming a substantial fish and another was continuing to feed on the nearby boat ramp.",
null,
"The Striated Heron that I wrote about a couple of weeks ago was at this boat ramp on low tide, so the area is productive for birds on both high and low tides. Our Karratha bird list was topped up to 101 after this brief trip to this small rocky beach near town, so there’s no complaining about the availability of different locations to observe birds around Karratha.",

"Last week the United Nations Development Program issued an important report for understanding the economic situation facing El Salvador's families. The Report of Human Development in El Salvador 2007-08 presents a comprehensive overview of the job situation in the country:\n\nEl Salvador is a country of workers. Not only because almost everyone has to work in order to earn their daily sustenance, but also because of the fame of its inhabitants as workers. The industriousness and enterprising nature are so deeply rooted in the Salvadoran identity that more than half of the population considers that \"to be Salvadoran\" is to be hard working.\n\nHowever, the work situation is far from being satisfactory for the majority of persons. This report has determined that when the greater part of the population complain that the country is either bad or very bad with respect to employment, it refers to the fact that there are very few opportunities for \"dignified work.\" Dignified work is a privilege enjoyed by less than 20% of the economically active population. For the rest, 7% haven't found employment and are unemployed, 43% have opted for underemployment and the other 31%, although they receive incomes in excess of the minimum wage, do not cover the cost of basic food basket at market prices, while not enjoying coverage of social safety nets.\n\nAmong other findings and recommendations in the Report:\nIn conjunction with coverage of the report, El Faro published this photo gallery of the faces of the underemployed.\nEconomy\n\nAnonymous said…\nhey tim, you shoud see the last horrible thing that the ARENA goverment just did, they just fired a worker of the FOVIAL just because he didn t go to the march of the last july 13, anyway check the blogs pijazo.blogspot.com, rojosrojos.blogspot.com, chichicaste.blogcindario.com, gatosfrentudos.blogspot.com, and many others, so you can see the black heart of the ARENAZIS, and with your post that certain people doesn t have work and the people that does, they re firing em, that s not fair\n9:00 AM\n\nAnonymous said…\nthis just show what i have been telling to my people, el salvador is in a very rough , sad, pour situation.\n6:08 PM"

"Charlotte Simone brand was founded in 2011 by the English designer Charlotte Beecham. It was created out of passion for additives, which gave birth and developed in Paris, in which the owner spent her first year of study. This city inspired her innate sense of Parisian style, which with incredible freedom and success can resist all of its stylization with one detail. Charlotte focused her attention on the classic scarf, the image of which refreshed creating, among other things, the “popsicle” model. It became its hallmark and at the same time the best winter accessory. It is thanks to him that even the simplest stylization becomes original and piquancy.\n\nNo products in the cart.",

"French Senate’s deferral of “Devoir de Vigilance” vote will delay, but not stop the law from progressing\n\nThe French Parliament deferred a vote originally scheduled for 21 October 2015 on a Bill sponsored by the French government known as “Devoir de Vigilance” or DdV. The law is designed to enforce a mandatory due diligence plan (plan de vigilance), on business enterprises and their subsidiaries, subcontractors and suppliers, aimed at preventing human rights violations caused by them. The proposal also covers personal injury, environmental damage, health risks and corruption. The plan must be published.\n\nAlthough the vote was deferred until 18 November, opening yesterday’s Senate session, Secretary of State Jean-Marie Le Guen stated that the government officially backs the current draft of an “ambitious and balanced” text. Thus the government could bypass the Senate and force a positive vote at the Assemblée Nationale. Since the beginning of the legislative process, French officials support the adoption of a similar legislative package at the EU level, which seems well on his way.\n\nEcoVadis has been working with Arnaud Poitevin, a legal scholar and expert on the topic of human rights law to develop a white paper summarizing the significant impacts of the DdV law, and how corporations can prepare for it.",
