"Here we are in the final days of January. How are your New Year’s resolutions holding up? Have you maintained the willpower to eat healthy and lose weight, or did you lose all control at the first thought of a brownie sundae? If the latter rings true for you, here’s some good news: it may not be not your fault. And, even better, there may be a practical solution.",

"Experts believe that, for some people, delicious foods can provoke such a strong neurological response that sheer willpower may not be sufficient to resist eating those foods once they’re available, according to this month’s issue of Scientific American.\n\n“For most of our history, the challenge for human beings was getting enough to eat to avoid starvation,” Drexel University eating and weight expert Michael Lowe, PhD, told the magazine, “but for many of us, the modern world has replaced that with a very different challenge: avoiding eating more than we need so we don’t gain weight.”\n\nThe term for these cravings for pleasurable foods in the absence of physiological hunger — “hedonic hunger” — was coined by Lowe in 2007. This strong psychological impulse is considered to be one of the primary factors in the soaring levels of obesity in the U.S.\n\nBet You Can’t Eat Just One!",

"“Few of us sit around and think about our next serving of broccoli or slice of bread, but we may very well think about snack foods, desserts and foods that have some combination of high-fat, high-sugar, high-salt,” Lowe, a professor of psychology in Drexel’s College of Arts and Sciences, has said. “And in those cases we don’t need the calories, but we want the simple pleasure of eating those foods.”\n\nAnd when we do break down and snack on a sleeve of Oreos or a bag of Doritos, we will eventually need more and more to satiate the pleasure demands — rather than the caloric demands — of our body, according to Lowe. In fact, recent research has consistently shown that high-fat, high-calorie foods can actually change the make-up of the brain in a way that compels some people to over-consume.\n\nBack in 2012, Lowe’s colleagues observed this phenomenon through a series of neuroimaging studies that observed the brain both when it’s anticipating foods high in salt, sugar and fat and when the food is consumed. They found that the brain’s reward system “lit up” both before eating pleasurable food and after. Over time, however, the reward centers started to get more excited by the expectation of a delicious treat than by the actual consumption of the treat. In short, the brains of overeaters demand a lot more sugar and fat to reach the same threshold of pleasure as they once experienced with less food.\n\n“It’s a vicious cycle,” Lowe told Scientific American. “The more delicious food you eat, the harder it is to resist. But the actual hit, the reward you get from the food, diminishes, so you want to eat more to get the same reward — but when you do that, you further reduce the value of the food and further strengthen the power of cues that signal the food.”\n\nIn this way, Lowe believes that certain foods, for some people, can become addictive in a way that parallels what drugs, alcohol or gambling can do to others. Several years ago, in order to help assess the power that food has over an individual, Lowe and his team developed the Power of Food Scale to better understand the predisposition that may make some people more susceptible to food-related temptations and to losing control over their eating. The self-assessment was featured on The Dr. Oz Show.\n\nSo what does this mean for the struggle between you and a brownie sundae?\n\nRather than teaching people to improve their self-control, Lowe believes the solution to resisting the urge to overindulge lies in focusing on your personal food environment.\n\nAccording to Lowe, “Our environment is absolutely filled with highly pleasurable foods that are also high in calories, high in fat, relatively cheap.”\n\nAnd, while snacking for pleasure is normal, Lowe believes that the constant onslaught of societal cues telling us to consume and the perpetual availability of tempting foods has made it easier than ever to satisfy those cravings — for a lot of people, much too often.\n\n“If a lot of the problem that overweight people face is exposure to too much delicious food in growing portions, that has big treatment implications,” he previously told The New Yorker.\n\nLowe argues that we need to “reengineer” the parts of our food environment that we have some direct control over. Many of the foods in our homes, cars and workplaces can be modified in ways that retain enjoyment while doing less caloric damage to our waistlines. Relevant dimensions that Lowe’s program — called Nutritrol — focuses on include availability of craved foods, energy density of foods, portion size and protein and fiber intake.\n\nMaking small changes in your living and working environment can significantly alter the eating patterns that have become ingrained in your routine, according to Lowe. So maybe 2016 will be the year you finally keep that New Year’s resolution."

"The pandemic has highlighted the fact that Indian jails are overrun – which has been consistently addressed in the speeches on prison rights. Sadly the State has never taken any steps to deal with the issue of overcrowding, even after several recalls.\n\n446,084 people are in prison as a group, 69.4% under trial (innocent, until proven guilty). Moreover, Indian prisons are overpopulated. The 2018 PSI report released by the National Crime Records Bureau states that, Indian prisons have the capacity of 3.96.223 prisoners against 445.084 prisoners. The Supreme Court ordered the formation of a High-Powered Committee, which would resolve the issue of prisons being overcrowded and take actions to protect prisoners. Considering this aspect of prison overcrowding during the pandemic, the Court also instructed Member States to send a reply detailing the measures taken to contain the in the pandemic.\n\nIn the grand narration of prison rights, both the order of the Supreme Court and the State's reaction seem to be insufficient. The situation has brought two big issues to light. First, the unsuccessful nature of the 2016 Model Prison Manual provisions that were once drafted to address an epidemic. The second is the state's indifference of the prisoners' mental well being. This is despite,mental health being recognized as a right through legislative provisions aswell as judicial mandate.\n\nWhile the authorities have failed to comply with the provisions of the Model Prison Manual, 2016, the situation exists, i.e. the issue of the mental health of the prisoners. The issue has been a matter of debate in several legal statements but in the current COVID 19 pandemic discourse, there appears to be an egligible debate on prisoners' mental health.\n\nThe pandemic has again highlighted the overcrowding of Indian prisons – which has been highlighted over and over in the discourse of discussions and processes on the subject of prison rights. Sadly, the state never took any action to fix the overcrowding problem even after several recalls. A short-term response by the State cannot provide the solution to such a problem. The construction of new prisons is a long-term undertaking. The problem, however, needs to be tackled after the pandemic. However, the State (prison authorities) urgently needs to deal with the issue of prisoners' mental health, it is high time to comply with the same.",

"Analysts and journalists kept repeating the platitude that cooperation between sovereign, right-wing parties at European level is impossible from the outset because their national interests may conflict. The liberal elite obviously cannot imagine that other cooperation is conceivable on the continent other than the United States of Europe.\n\n[As Remix News previously reported, Hungarian Prime Minister Orbán made it clear after the meeting that there was no major interest regarding their respective nations where they could not cooperate.]\n\nTheir idea is that national interests will dissolve into the great common European interest, which we are well aware is an illusion, because that alleged European interest is typically dictated by a few larger member states.\n\nThere was also an argument in the press that the planned European coalition of Fidesz’s potential allies in the right-wing factions was in direct conflict with the issue of Hungarians living abroad. This is due to the fact that last year, when the European Parliament adopted a resolution in favor of the Minority SafePack European Citizens’ Initiative for the Protection of Minorities, many people in the Identity and Democracy and European Conservatives and Reformists groups voted against the initiative or abstained.\n\nThis is not surprising, as many people interpreted the otherwise important and positive initiative as aimed at reducing member states’ competencies, which is certainly not the case, but many feared that supporting the initiative would be poorly received in their respective domestic policy scenes.\n\nIf we carry on the logic that the right-wing parties are not on our side with their votes, will the liberal factions supporting the initiative to safeguard minorities be on our side, the same groups of politicians who are demanding the “starvation” and exclusion of Hungary and Poland from the EU every chance they get? Is the Renew faction, whose vice-president is Katalin Cseh, a representative of the [Hungarian centrist party] Momentum, campaigning for Romanian parties?\n\nIt is quite obvious that this autumn’s vote on the Minority SafePack was not the only to measure for parties to base their alliances on. The liberal support eventually led to the president of the European Commission for Values and Transparency eventually sweeping the Minority SafePack aside. And said person, Vera Jourová, is notoriously not a Spanish nationalist, but a Czech liberal.\n\nViktor Orbán, Matteo Salvini and Mateusz Morawiecki are working against strong upwinds for what they call the “European renaissance”. The liberal elite and its press will do everything they can to challenge this cooperation and to separate potential allies.\n\nBut we have to fight this fight because the stakes are huge: They are the future of Europe."

"Allowed to register as a team or as an individual, the weekend saw all of them form into teams to build 16 different autonomous robots for search and rescue missions, organiser Makeweekend said in a statement. Participants were mostly engineering students (20%) and young professionals in relevant fields with all possesing basic programming knowledge.\n\n“This is the kind of technology that will be used to for search missions in the future,” said its cofounder Kal Joffres.\n\n“Most of the search operation consists of people looking out the window of a plane, searching a very large and remote area. Unmanned and autonomous robots will change the way that happens, allowing us to search larger areas much faster,” he added.\n\nMakeweekend said that thanks to its process of rapid product development, the teams managed to build the robots over just two days.\n\nParticipants received a rapid course in developing robots and used 3D printers to help build parts for their robots. Each robot had an on board computer that the teams programmed to use different approaches to search and rescue.\n\nMakeweekend is a programme that brings people together to solve big challenges over two days. The challenges range from improving education to improving disaster relief.\n\n“Typically, challenges like this are completed over months. We are pushing people to see how much they can accomplish building something from scratch in just two days,” said Joffres.\n\nThe winning team for the search and rescue challenge, made of students from Universiti Putra Malaysia and Taylor’s College, built a robot resembling WALL-E, the character from the 2008 Pixar movie. It has a rotating head equipped with sensors to detect obstacles around it.\n\nFive engineering students in their final year from Inti College, inspired by the ‘black box’ concept, decided to build a low-cost black box for cars that could detect accidents as well as damage to the car and automatically alert family members with location information.",

"Participants began the event with a two hour programming workshop before teams received kits that included the basic component to make their autonomous robot, including a programmable Raspberry Pi computer or ‘brain’ for their robots, motors, batteries and more. The robots were required to autonomously complete a course to find a distress beacon within a certain time.\n\nThe top two teams received 3pi robots (an advanced technology in building robots) as prizes and the top five teams will receive additional support in terms of 3D printing services and electronic parts. The projects will be showcased at the launch of the Malaysian Global Innovation and Creativity Centre (MaGIC) from April 25-27.\n\n“I'm amazed that I'm here. The first time I heard about Raspberry Pi [computer] was on BBC and I couldn't believe that such a thing existed,” said Vinothini Rasalingam from Universiti Tenaga Nasional.\n\n“Now I'm here actually working on it. It's my first robot,” she added.\n\nThe event was hosted by Wakalab, the youth and community arm of Media Prima Digital. Key partners include MaGIC, Makerzone, and Makespace, which supported the event and provided 3D printing services.\n\nMakeweekend kicks off 2013 with robotics theme",

"A pair of rare Valk table globes published by Gerard and Leonard Valk at Amsterdam in 1750 and 1700. The Dutch globe makers Gerard Valk (1652-1726) and his son Leonard Valk (1675-1746) were the only significant publishers of globes in the Netherlands in the eighteenth century. The design of their globes was completely new and incorporated the latest geographical and astronomical discoveries and are hence the most accurate globes for that time. The pair includes a terrestrial and celestial globe with a diameter of 39 cm. (15 in.) each with 12 engraved gores and two polar calottes over a paper-maché hollow core, made up of two hemispheres joined at the equator and covered with a layer of plaster. Each globe is mounted in a new oak Dutch-style stand, the celestial globe with a facsimile paper horizon ring. Including the oak stand each globe has a height of 59 cm. (23 in.). The terrestrial globe in its third state, the celestial in its second state. A beautiful and eye-catching set of these rare globes. For more information please call or email us\n\nExtremely rare, hand-colored set, of the only edition of Janssonius's town atlases of the Netherlands published in 1657.",

Several plans have been amended, the text has been reset. This third edition is extended with extracts from the privileges granted by Philip II and Louis XIV. Of all the Blaeu atlases, the town books of the Netherlands are held in the highest esteem in the Netherlands.

"The last book in the Zombie Games series, End Zone, is on sale now for only $.99. The price will go up on December 1st, so if you are looking to read the final installment, get it before it goes up to $2.99.\n\nThe rain died down, but I was still chilled to the bone. I figured that if I wasn’t killed by the people in the truck, I’d probably die of pneumonia if I didn’t get out of my wet clothes soon and into something dry soon. I decided that the first thing I’d do if I escaped, was to break into a vehicle and search for clothing or a blanket. For now, however, I had to bear the cold and as usual, hope that I’d survive whatever lay ahead of me. It was obvious that I’d made another dumb decision without thinking it through, and now I’d be paying for it somehow.\nAt least my friends were safe.\nBut Bryce, he had to be just furious with me again. If I didn’t watch myself, he’d change his mind on marrying me. That thought made my heart ache. I wasn’t sure if I could handle it if he dumped me. I wouldn’t necessarily blame him if he did, but I’d rather die than lose him; which was why I had to survive, get back to him, and prove that I could stay out of trouble. Or at least try a little harder.\nI stared down at my ring and felt tears burning in the back of my eyes. I didn’t want to die, not without getting married to the big lug. Heck, we still needed time to get to know each other. I knew which foot he preferred to kick with and that he had a helluva right hook, but I had no idea what his favorite color was, how he liked his eggs, or what his favorite food even was.\nMy God, did he even like pickles?\nI closed my eyes and tried to picture his face. Thankfully, it came easily and not surprisingly, he was scowling at me.\nI smiled.\nDamn, I loved his scowl. I loved everything about my karate man. But then my thoughts drifted from him to my sister and my smile fell.\nAllie, she must be terrified.\nI hoped that Billie snapped out of whatever was happening to him and brought her back to my grandparent’s house. That’s what I hoped, but something inside told me that wasn’t going to happen. That something much more sinister was going on. Something also told me that I was going to be there when it went down. I hoped that I was wrong. I prayed that she and Kylie were safe and would stay that way.\nWhen the pickup veered off of the highway near MOA’s exited, I couldn’t believe it. Here I’d been kidnapped, but taken to the one place I really wanted to be. If I hadn’t felt so much hate for the bastard driving the truck, I’d have offered him gas money.\n\nPosted by Kristen Middleton / K.L. Middleton at 1:00 AM"

"Naughty Dog has a reputation for making a trilogy of games (and sometimes a racing game) for a franchise on a console generation and moving onto a new IP. They did it with Crash Bandicoot on the PS1 and Jak & Daxter on the PS2. Their PlayStation 3 trilogy was the blockbuster Uncharted franchise (along with the amazing The Last of Us). However, in their first effort on the PlayStation 4, Naughty Dog went back to Uncharted for one more adventure with Nathan Drake in Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End.\n\nJust coming to market, Uncharted 4 was a controversial game. There were a number of high-profile departures from the game over its development. Uncharted director and creative director Amy Hennig and game director Justin Richmond left during the production of the game. They were replaced by The Last of Us directing duo Neil Druckmann and Bruce Straley. If you were worried that swapping the team leads for Uncharted in the middle of production would harm the end product, you’ll be happy to know that this game is as good as the trilogy that preceded it.\n\nThat being said, it’s not like the change in directors resulted in Uncharted 4 becoming something akin to The Last of Us 2. While a lot of elements from TLOU find their way to Uncharted, this is still an adventure about treasure hunting (but with the supernatural elements of the last three games omitted) but friends and family form the core of the story. Granted, this is a common thread in all Naughty Dog games but it’s a bit more prevalent in Uncharted 4 thanks to flashbacks and optional conversations along with the usual cutscenes and dialogue that you get in Uncharted games.",
null,
"On the other hand, the change in directors might have resulted in what feels a bit like retconning in the character of Sam Drake, Nathan’s long-lost older brother. Nate has ever mentioned the existence of a brother or his importance until Sam showed up at Nathan’s workplace. (The review title “The Last Crusade” isn’t just saying that this might be the last Uncharted game but because the handling of Sam is similar to that of Dr. Henry Jones Sr. in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. After Uncharted 3, Drake and Elena finally got married and Nate retired from the adventuring life for a civilian life of washing dishes and working for a salvage company. Of course, since this an Uncharted game, the slow start quickly gives way to an adventure on a grand scale.\n\nWhile the Sam Drake character isn’t a bad one, he’s not exactly a compelling one. He is forced into Nate’s backstory as the one who inspired him to go on his adventuring lifestyle. Their pursuit of Captain Avery’s treasure (the focus of this adventure) was always the family goal, not Sir Francis Drake or El Dorado. Nate and Sam were the original adventuring duo with Sully being an associate. You have three flashback chapters to buildup the importance of the relationship between the brothers. It almost retroactively de-values the Nate and Sully relationship that drove Uncharted 1 and 3.\n\nHowever, once the adventure starts and familiar characters come along for the ride, it’s classic Uncharted. There are a couple of twists from the usual formula. Drake is trying to do right by the world with his adventures but he’s out to save his brother from a ruthless drug lord who is broke Sam out of jail in order to bring him the treasure. There’s no supernatural power that needs to be kept out of the hands of an evil doer.\n\nIt’s a very personal adventure for Nathan and Nolan North is tasked with creating this relationship and making us believe that it matters. Fortunately, he’s Nolan North so he does a pretty good job. Retcon notwithstanding, it’s the relationship between Nate and Sam that carries most of this game and makes you want to drive forward. Granted, the action and adventure will make you want to push forward too.",
null,
"As this is an Uncharted game, the relationship between the characters is the most memorable part of the experience. There are all sorts of funny anecdotes and interesting stories dropped in conversation between the characters. There is a neat feature where if an anecdote is interrupted, when the inevitable gun fight ends, that character resumes with a “where was I” before picking the story back up again. It’s a nice little touch that I wish more games had though I wish more games had that much faith in their characters and dialogue.\n\nWhen it comes to gameplay, you know what to expect from an Uncharted game. The game is still platforming on conveniently highlighted ledges and shooting from behind convenient chest-high walls.\n\nWhile the core gameplay didn’t change, Naughty Dog have made some refinements and improvements. Unlike previous games that used obviously highlighted ledges and objects to grab onto, the game does a better job of blending platforming objects into the scenery. The result is something much more natural. It reminded me of Assassin’s Creed in that it didn’t hold your hand when platforming. You can’t use everything for movement but the environments look better as a result. You also don’t need to hit the X button to jump to every new ledge. If you can reach another ledge by pointing the left stick, Nate will automatically grab it. That makes for a much smoother movement experience.\n\nFrom a combat perspective, the AI has been improved. The AI will attempt to flank you so you have to be aware of your surroundings at all time. You don’t have Joel’s super hearing from The Last of Us so you need to be on the lookout for trouble on your way. Sometimes your AI companion will help you with that but not always. This game also sees the introduction of destructible cover. I vaguely recall this in small sections of previous games but it’s a lot more prevalent in this game so that’s something else to keep you on the move.\n\nStealth also plays a large part in combat. Nate can move through tall grass and foliage, along cliffs and between cover in order to stealthily make his way to an enemy before silently dispatching him with a stealth kill. One of the other mechanics brought over from The Last of Us is that your AI companion doesn’t blow your cover or set off any traps regardless of where they are relative to you and the enemies’ sightlines. Because of the improved AI, there’s an increased emphasis on stealth that wasn’t in the previous games. Earlier Uncharted games put the emphasis on cover-based shooting because you didn’t have much in the way of difficult enemies. The enemies in A Thief’s End are a bit too smart and bullet-spongey to take down quickly without getting overwhelmed.",
null,
"There are a couple of new mechanics for platforming that might seem familiar to those of us that played the new Tomb Raider games. There is the use of a piton to climb soft rocks. That we saw in the PlayStation Experience demo but that’s also in the latter half of the game and used sparingly. They also introduce a rope swing mechanic that differs from Tomb Raider in that it’s not just a platforming but a combat tool as well. You can use the rope swing to quickly move to lose enemies. You can also shoot from the rope which is pretty cool if you can pull it off. I can’t but I like the idea of swinging from a rope and mowing down enemies with an assault rifle. Well, you could if the enemies weren’t more bullet-spongey than usual.\n\nOne thing that gets brought up a lot in discussions about Uncharted 4 is that it feels like a send-off for the franchise. While it certainly does feel like an ending, they’ve left themselves enough wiggle room that you can see how they can make the announced single-player DLC work in the events and lore established by the series. Similarly, that wiggle room could allow for future full Uncharted games to be created.\n\nFrom a technical standpoint, this is the best looking game on the current console generation. I don’t think anyone is disputing that point either. Sure, Naughty Dog missed its target of running the game at 60 FPS (it only runs at 30 FPS) but the trade-off results in a game with some of the highest graphical fidelity and detail in gaming, not just console gaming. The environments are filled with detailed and life-like vegetation. The market in Madagascar is full of people. Sure, the set pieces aren’t as spectacular as previous games which already took them up to 11 but the whole game is just a visual tour de force that won’t be matched until the next stage of PS4/XB1 consoles.",
null,
"As always, the voice acting in Uncharted is the best in the business. It is helped by the writing but the acting isn’t going to carry bad writing and the writing wouldn’t carry bad acting. The newcomer to the cast is Troy Baker who plays Sam. Being malleable of voice, Baker does his best to sound like someone who could believably be Nathan Drake’s brother without trying to do a Nolan North impression.\n\nBy the way, Uncharted 4 also has a multiplayer component. While it looks pretty good and runs at a smooth 60 FPS, it adds absolutely nothing. It’s a time sink at best. It exists and that’s probably as much consideration that Naughty Dog gave it. While they did add some neat features like earning in-match money to spend on various boosters, it’s nothing particularly special apart from some vaguely Uncharted-themed special weapons. Honestly, I preferred Uncharted 3’s multiplayer.",
null,
"Inevitably, Uncharted 4 will be compared to Rise of the Tomb Raider. I don’t think that comparison will take very long for most of the aspects of the games. The audio, visual and story elements of Uncharted 4 are far superior to ROTTR. The graphics are the best on console. The voice acting is actually good. And there’s actually a story. These elements are just objectively better in Uncharted but we also know that these are what Naughty Dog has been recognized as an industry leader in.\n\nGameplay is a little more of a toss-up. I find the gameplay harder in Uncharted 4. That doesn’t necessarily better or worse. Both push you in the direction of prioritizing stealth to make engagements easier but Tomb Raider lends itself better to gunning down scores of enemies and using the environment to kill scads of enemies in a spectacular fashion. The AI is smarter in Uncharted and it can get to the point of frustration when they flank you and kill you when you just want to recover some health. I don’t think that one game plays objectively better than the other. If you want an easier time, you’ll prefer Tomb Raider.

"CLEMSON, S.C. –– Jordan Byrd, a 17-year collegiate coaching veteran, has been named the eighth head men’s golf coach at Clemson University, Director of Athletics Dan Radakovich announced on Thursday. Byrd succeeds 38-year coaching veteran Larry Penley, who is retiring at the end of the season. Clemson begins play as the No. 1 Seed in NCAA Regionals on May 17.\n\nByrd has spent all 17 of his coaching years at Clemson as an assistant coach with Penley. In the past six seasons alone, the Tigers have won 18 tournaments and two ACC championships, including the 2021 title. Clemson has reached the NCAA Tournament all 16 years it has been held since Byrd has been an assistant and has been ranked in the final top 25 rankings 11 times, with the 2021 season likely to be the 12th.\n\n“We are delighted to have Jordan Byrd take over the men’s golf program,” said Director of Athletics Dan Radakovich. “When Coach Penley announced his intention to retire, we quickly identified Jordan as a top candidate for this position. We knew his leadership and engagement in the golf community were unparalleled. After others and I interviewed him, I knew he was ready to put his own mark on this program that he’s had such a large part in building.”\n\nFrom recruiting to golf instruction to facility enhancement to overall administration of the program, Byrd has had a positive influence on the men’s golf program. He has been a major reason that Clemson is one of just seven schools to reach the NCAA National Tournament or rank in the top 30 of the Golfweek/Sagarin rankings each of the last seven years.\n\nIn terms of recruitment, Byrd has been a dynamo for the Tigers. Byrd had a significant impact on Clemson’s top five recruiting class in 2006. Sam Saunders, Kyle Stanley and Ben Martin all were on the PGA Tour in 2020-21 and combined to help the Tigers to a No. 5 NCAA Tournament finish in 2008.\n\nByrd also helped recruit first-team AJGA All-American Crawford Reeves in 2009 and Corbin Mills, another top AJGA player. It continued in 2011 with AJGA All-American Billy Kennerly and in 2012 with AJGA Player of the Year Cody Proveaux. The Tigers added Carson Young and Austin Langdale in 2013 and ACC Player of the Year Bryson Nimmer in 2019. Jacob Bridgeman earned second-team honors and was selected to the Junior President’s Cup and Palmer Cup. He also recruited and coached Doc Redman, who won the U.S. Amateur in 2017.\n\nByrd is a graduate of Furman University where he served as captain (1997-98). He won the Southern Conference Championship as a junior in 1997 when the Paladins also won the team title. That marked Furman’s first NCAA Tournament berth in program history.\n\n“Jordan Byrd is ready for this opportunity,” said Penley. “I’ve had the chance to work alongside him for 17 years, and he’s been a tremendous leader of young men. Jordan is a terrific golf mind and golf coach, and I couldn’t think of anyone better to lead this program into the future.”"

"[groupthink] the gentle art of persuasion\n\nBefore the stick always comes the carrot. Every parent is an amateur psychologist. Every political thinker and writer is also and the techniques are many and varied. Here are some of them:\n\nCreating an esoteric language which both persuades anyone who doesn't understand your termnology that he is ignorant and at the same time bolsters your intellectual self-esteem:\n\nmulti-organisational working, cross-boundary working and the global-national-local interface each raise their own set of organisational dynamics which must be surfaced and worked with if collaboration is to be effective.\n\nCultivating an aura of exclusivity\n\nCreating an aura of a vibrant, free-thinking contributor to change, dynamically going places at a high level beyond the common mortal, beyond the goyim, e.g. Middleton:\n\nOr in a group context:\n\n[We] are looking for candidates who are:\n\n*senior decision-makers within the area covered by the programme\n*interested in contributing to the future of their area.\n\nApplicants will be considered according to their:\n\n*current responsibility as a leader through work or community activity\n*involvement within the area covered by the programme\n*likely contribution to the perspectives and dynamics of the group\n*ability to participate fully in the Common Purpose programme.\n\n\nIdentification with a common goal\n\nAligning your goals and techniques with those of business and sharing their joint concerns, e.g. industrial and corporate espionage:\n\n\nInfraGard is an information sharing and analysis association of businesses, academic institutions, state and local law enforcement agencies, and other participants dedicated to sharing information and intelligence to prevent hostile acts against the United States.\n\nThis is nicely illustrated in a speech not that long ago by Robert S. Mueller, III, Director Federal Bureau of Investigation:\n\nI want to turn for a moment to counterintelligence intrusions and economic espionage. There is no shortage of countries that seek our information technology, our innovation, and our intelligence—information we have spent years and billions of dollars developing.\n\nThe simple truth is we do not protect cyber space to the same degree we protect our physical space. We have in large part left the doors open to our business practices, our sensitive data, and our intellectual property.\n\nWe understand that we must continue to work closely with all of you—members of the private sector and the academic community.\n\nThink of the fusion center as a hub, with spokes that range from federal agencies, software companies, and ISPs, to merchants and members of the financial sector.\n\nIndustry experts from companies such as Cisco, Bank of America, and Target sit side-by-side with the FBI, postal inspectors, the Federal Trade Commission, and many others, sharing information and ideas. Together, we have created a neutral space where cyber experts and competitors, who might not otherwise collaborate, can talk about cyber threats and security breaches.\n\nMembers from a host of industries, from computer security to the chemical sector, share information about threats to their own companies, in their own communities, through a secure computer server.\n\nWe are also reaching out to academia. In 2005, we created the National Security Higher Education Advisory Board. We asked your president, Graham Spanier, to lead the group. We knew it wouldn't be an easy sell, because of the perceived tension between law enforcement and academia.\n\nThe next stage on from identification of a common goal is the \"slide\":\n\n\n‘A “slide” is a prefabricated, politically correct, blanket pop opinion, “view” or “take” upon a particular issue of general interest which is designed to preclude further consideration, analysis or investigation of the issue in question. [Soviet Analyst]\n\nBeyond Bullets, in addressing corporate techniques in groupthink, wrote:\n\nIt's fine to assume these things, as long as we're aware that our default mode of presenting and informing also means that there is little room for thinking, challenging, dialogue and debate -- a fertile breeding ground for groupthink. The way we use PowerPoint only adds fertilizer to this stagnant pool, because a slide filled with bulleted text only increases the illusion of certainty for presenters and the feeling of passivity for audiences.\n\nThe bulleted, pre-packaged concept is used by the Chinese and others to great effect:\n\n\nThree evils – terrorism, extremism and separatism – are main threat to peace and security of Central Asia, Secretary-General of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation Zhang Deguang said on the eve of the SCO heads of states summit in Astana.\n\n\nIn the English language, the addition of the definite article \"the\" transforms the package to gospel - \"the three evils of ...\", as in \"we're all agreed this is what they are\".\n\nOne of the oldest techniques is to rearrange diverse opinion into two antagonistic party lines, e.g. Swift's High Heels and Low Heels and then everything can be argued along such convenient and easily controlled party lines.\n\nSo, in a non-partisan debate about wiretapping, one person's incarceration for refusal to divulge information casts her in the role of martyr [she's of our political persuasion] but when it's someone of the opposite persuasion, her incarceration hardly matters:\n\nLest anyone be confused, this is quite the opposite situation from when former NYT pseudo-reporter/White House shill, Judy Miller, was subpoenaed and went to jail for failing to reveal her sources in the CIA leak case. In her case she was refusing to name White House officials who were involved in government wrongdoing in which she had a role.\n\nPersuaders are ever ready to learn new techniques in assuring your opinion prevails and all other dissenting opinion is marginalized, from the horrendous to the banal:\n\n\nThis paper seeks to fill this gap, by drawing both upon theoretical literature and experience with successful change facilitation practices from Europe and the US. Its focus is on the cognitive aspects of strategic orientation and provides a practical guide to those who use this process.\n\nIt doesn't matter if the technique is proven or not - it's new and it sounds great:\n\nThe NLP Milton model uses non-specific and metaphoric language allowing the listener to fill in the gaps, making their own meaning from what is being said, finding their own solutions and inner resources, challenging and reframing irrational beliefs.\n\nFor example, Grinder and Bandler stated that there were a few common traits expert communicators – whether top therapists, top executives or top salespeople – all seemed to share:\n\n\n1. Everything they did in their work, was pro-active (rather than reactive), directed moment to moment by well-formed outcomes rather than formalized fixed beliefs.\n\nWF Outcomes as the goal, rather than acting from belief in something?\n\nA Well-formed outcome is a term originating in neuro-linguistic programming for an outcome one wishes to achieve, that meets certain conditions designed to avoid (1) unintended costs or consequences and (2) resistance to achieving the goal resulting from internal conflicting feelings or thoughts about the outcome.\n\nThere is no shortage of detractors as to the efficacy of the techniques though:\n\nNeuro-linguistic programming (NLP) is one of many New Age Large Group Awareness Training programs. NLP is a competitor with Landmark Forum, Tony Robbins, and legions of other enterprises which, like the Sophists of ancient Greece, travel from town to town to teach their wisdom for a fee.\n\nThe Persuaders require young[ish] people, susceptible to flattery and elitist inclusion, of mediocre intellect, of a conformist bent and likely to rise high. Fortunately for the Persuaders, there are many such goyim out there who want \"up\".\n\nSome of my own, based on material supplied\n\nReferences to Common Purpose appear in many other posts.\nInflicted on you by James Higham on Tuesday, February 12, 2008",

"Women are very important stakeholders for the whole cocoa industry – not just as customers and consumers, but also because of their roles as cocoa producers. Although cocoa is seen as a “male crop” in most of the producing countries, women have a key role in activities that are critical for the volume and quality of the production. Nevertheless, the “invisibility” of women has serious consequences for their access to technical training and productive resources in general, which is unjust and also represents a huge inefficiency in business terms.\n\nFollowing pioneering work by Stephanie Barrientos in 2008, Cadbury (which later became part of Mondelēz International) realised the importance of gender equality in its supply chain and in 2012 it designed the first version of a gender plan, which then evolved into a new more detailed version in 2014, and which is in the process of being continuously improved.\n\nCARE has been working in partnership with Mondelēz International in the Cocoa Life programme since 2012 (and previously, since 2008, with Cadbury in the Cadbury Cocoa Partnership). The Cocoa Life programme aims to empower 200,000 cocoa farmers and reach one million community members in six key cocoa growing origins: Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana, Indonesia, India, the Dominican Republic and Brazil. Since the inception of the programme, CARE has supported the whole process of incorporating women’s economic empowerment, both from the standpoint of an implementing partner and from the standpoint of a strategic advisor. We helped shape the Gender Action plan in Côte d’Ivoire in 2014 and have just conducted a peer review process in Ghana and Côte d’Ivoire culminated in the Women’s leadership in Cocoa Life communities report, co-published by CARE and Mondelēz International.\n\nIn the peer review, we assessed Cocoa Life against key industry standards like the Women’s Empowerment Principles and the more recent report by the UN High Level Panel on Women’s Economic Empowerment. However, the main framework we used for the analysis was CARE’s Gender Equality Framework, which is designed to make sure that interventions have a truly transformative gender approach and to improve access and control over productive resources through:\n\nAccording to the assessment, gender has been deeply embedded and made cross-cutting across most of Cocoa Life’s interventions and the programme has had a very positive influence over women’s agency, through strengthening women’s skills in agriculture, financial literacy, leadership skills, and at the same time providing women with platforms to exercise their leadership in community-level governance committees and in cooperative societies.\n\nCocoa Life is also starting to influence social norms in gender relations through promoting new role models for men, women and youth that challenge the gender-based division of labour and traditional gender roles in general.\n\nThis is done through a variety of tools and methodologies at the household level, at the community level, at the private sector partners’ level, and influencing at the public sector level:\n\nWhile these interventions have been effective, according to the assessment more needs to be done to address the root causes of gender inequality, at the relations level inside the household and at the more structural policy level. While the gender-based division of labour is starting to be challenged and new role models for women are emerging through their new leadership positions, time poverty continues to be a huge issue. Although awareness of the issue is growing, challenges remain in terms of decreasing and redistributing the work load. Better awareness also exists around gender-based violence, but more strategic actions need to be implemented. More research is needed around the actual influence and control that women have in leadership positions and also inside the household. More research also needs to be done around women’s paid labour and the pay gap. The issue of access to land continues to be a major barrier for women and needs to be tackled at the highest advocacy level.\n\nCARE believes that partnering with a leading company in the food industry like Mondelēz around women’s economic empowerment has the potential to bring about large-scale changes for vulnerable women in the agriculture sector across the world. Although it is a long journey, full of challenges and learning opportunities along the way, achieving that should become an asset for the whole industry – not only for Mondelēz.\n\nMore in this category: « Dignified Work – What is it? And why is it crucial for women’s economic empowerment? Cocoa Life: Can complex development be explained on a bar of chocolate? »"

"The court heard Junior had accelerated to get around the bus just before a blind left-hand bend, leaving himself with no time to react as the family crossed in front of him.\n\nHe had also ignored road signs warning of elderly pedestrians crossing, a sign reading \"Slow'', and chevron markings on the tarmac signalling a crossing ahead.\n\nUsing CCTV from the stationary bus, investigators worked out Junior had been travelling at 47mph in the 30mph zone in Grove Lane, Handsworth, Birmingham.\n\nGareth Walters, setting out the prosecution case, said: \"A collision was inevitable.''\n\nJudge Murray Creed told Junior: \"This case is a tragedy for you and your family, but a much greater tragedy for the Wu family as the two young children's lives were ended by your driving.''\n\nHe added: \"You struck that group of pedestrians almost as they reached the central reservation marked ahead of them.\n\n\"Mrs Wu (and the other children) hit the front and were thrown to the floor. But unhappily, the two smaller children were carried a short distance along the bonnet before being left to lie in the road, both fatally injured.''\n\nJunior, of Copthall Road in Handsworth, also pleaded guilty to causing serious injury to the girls' mother and two other children, for which he received two years in jail to run concurrently.\n\nMs Wu had been taking her two daughters to Chinese classes when the accident happened, while Junior had just dropped his father off on his own son's birthday.\n\nAs he overtook the bus, its driver tried to warn Mrs Wu and the children crossing 10 metres in front by sounding the horn, but saw no reaction.\n\nJunior ploughed straight into the group, knocking 39-year-old Mrs Wu and the two other youngsters to the ground, but Lily and Shelley were carried along on the bonnet of the car.\n\nA hospital surgeon described Shelly's wounds as \"one of the most severe head injuries he'd seen in a child'', the prosecutor added.\n\nMr Walters said: \"The collision investigator confirmed the defendant would not have had sight of the family until directly in front of him. He had less than 30 metres to react. Given his speed gave him 21 metres per second to react, a collision was inevitable.''\n\nMr Walters said the two other children had recovered, but added that while Mrs Wu's physical injuries had healed, she had been left with \"significant'' mental health problems.\n\n\"At the girls' funeral, Mrs Wu didn't remember they were her children due to her brain injury and blames herself for the loss of her daughters.''\n\nHe added that because of depression and suicidal tendencies, she had to be sectioned for six days in January.\n\nHer husband Ming Wu, in a victim impact statement read to the court, said: \"She spends most of her time hiding in the bedroom, and won't go out and have contact with anyone.''\n\nJunior, a father-of-five who pleaded guilty at the earliest opportunity, apologised in court through his barrister Timothy Harrington.\n\nOutside court, Wu family friend Alex Yip read a statement, saying: \"Four years is not long enough - for us this is a life sentence.''"

"The midday siesta, late bedtimes, and an overall lack of productivity are all results of a decision made during the height of WWII.\nBY Kendall Baker\nMarch 10, 2016",
null,
"On October 23, 1940, Adolf Hitler took a train to the Spanish border to meet with the country’s dictator, Francisco Franco.\n\nThe world was at war. And having recently gained an ally in Italy’s Benito Mussolini, Hitler sought Spain’s support, as well. But Spain was still recovering from its own Civil War that had only recently ended, and thus had very little to offer. So, Franco remained neutral.\n\nHowever, as a sign of solidarity, he moved Spain’s clocks ahead an hour so that they were aligned with Nazi Germany.",
null,
"Hitler meeting with Franco during WWII to discuss a possible alliance.\n\nOver 70 years later, that is where they remain, leaving Spaniards stuck in the “wrong” time zone.",
null,
"Geographically, the country is in line with Britain and Portugal, but its clocks match those of countries as far east as Poland and Hungary.\n\nYour boss pulls you into her office and gives you permission to come into work an hour late the next day. So, you head home that night and decide to take full advantage. First, you make yourself an epic feast, eating at a leisurely pace to ensure that you savor every last bite. Then, you watch THREE (one more than usual!) episodes of Gilmore Girls and get into bed at midnight as opposed to 11 p.m.\n\nThe next morning, you’re woken up by a phone call. It’s your boss telling you that she was just kidding, and that you need to come in at the normal time.\n\nSee, since the sun sets an hour later than in neighboring countries, Spaniards go to sleep later. But they wake up at the same time. Therefore, their work days are exceedingly long and weirdly disjointed. Pretty much worst-case scenario. Nuria Chinchilla, a professor at the IESE Business School, explains:\n\n“If we eat at 2 p.m., and dine at 9 p.m., then logically we ought to start work at 10 a.m. But we don’t do that, we start earlier, so our mornings are far too long. That’s why people need a coffee break, because they can’t wait that long to eat. So we lose time in the morning and have to work even longer in the evening.”\n\nIt’s almost as if Spaniards are living with 70+ years of jet lag, which explains the midday “siesta” that has become synonymous with Spanish culture.",
null,
"Though most workers no longer take a nap after lunch, it remains a ritual to gather with friends and colleagues for an extended lunch break.\n\nThis provides much needed relaxation for workers, but also forces them to stay at work until much later at night.\n\nSince workers get home as late as 9 p.m., and because the sun sets an hour later than in neighboring countries, Spain is known for its crazy nightlife hours.\n\n“In England, the largest TV audience is at 7 or 8 p.m., but in Spain, it’s 10 p.m… because at 8 p.m. in Spain, barely 50% of the population is at home.” says Ignacio Buqueras, president of the Association for the Rationalisation of Spanish Working Hours. “Some football matches don’t kick off until 11 p.m.!”\n\nAs a result of the entire country operating on such a late schedule, Spaniards go to bed far later than they should. Which would be fine if they slept in, but as I mentioned earlier, they don’t.\n\nIn fact, studies suggest that Spaniards sleep an hour less than the rest of Europe, which has all kinds of negative consequences, most notably lack of productivity and increased stress.\n\nTime for a change?\n\nThere are those in Spain who support “correcting” the country’s time zone, which will lead to a shorter work day and a healthier, more productive workforce. However, there are just as many that are opposed, citing the deep-rooted culture that is tied to Spain’s long days.\n\nAll I know is that I’m never complaining about Daylight Saving Time – which begins at 2 a.m. this Sunday – ever again."

"Well, it’s the first Sunday of the month so I thought I’d review my blog’s stats for August. It was my biggest month for views in the almost three years since starting my blog, which is cool as it’s felt like everyone kind of disappeared over this summer. Where is everybody?! Hope you all had lovely summer vacations. 🙂\n\nHere are the stats I enjoy looking at the most – My Top Viewed Posts For August:",
null,
"Well, My Top Ten Shower & Bath Scenes In Movies post is never going to die – I posted that in 2013 & it’s in my Top Posts every month. Pervs.\n\nWhat I’m always happiest about is when I review something slightly more obscure & end up getting a huge response from people who either wish to add how much they love that movie or from people who had never heard of it & are now very interested in seeing it after my (stunningly well-written) review. 😉",
null,
"There were two posts like that in August. One was my review for The Last Unicorn, a strange little animated Rankin/Bass film from 1982 that was animated by those who later went on to form my beloved Studio Ghibli. It’s very of its time & has a totally 70’s-easy-listening soundtrack with songs by America plus big-name voice talents such as the always cool Christopher Lee as the “baddie”. It’s strange & beautiful and lots of bloggers, male & female, stopped by to say how much they love that movie.",
null,
"The other post that got a lot of attention was My Top Ten Drew Struzan Movie Art Pieces. I love movie poster art & thought Struzan was more of a household name but after I reviewed the excellent documentary about him (review HERE), it was obvious many bloggers weren’t aware of him. When I did my Top Ten list of his movie art, people became far more interested when they saw just how many iconic posters he created (Back To The Future, various Star Wars special editions, The Thing, etc etc).",
null,
"Finally, my biggest post of the month (after that old shower/bath post) was My Top Ten Movies With Song Title Titles. I had a lot of fun putting that list together so was very happy to get so many comments on it. I’m glad I finally got up off my bum & started posting these top ten lists every Thursday. I have a lot of them – I just need to get the time to put the posts together each week! I’ll try to keep it up. 🙂\n\nNow onto the always entertaining (and pervy) Top Search Terms For August:",
null,
"“Alice Eve hot” AGAIN?! Every damn month that pops up! And I don’t think a day goes by where I don’t get at least one view of my old Odd Thomas review & I know it’s just because the actress in it, Addison Timlin, wears extremely revealing panties. Pervs. But… Kyle Reese naked?! I wish! Unfortunately, I have no nude photos of Michael Biehn. 😉",
null,
"Let’s see… Haviland Morris? The popular bitch from Sixteen Candles? Wonder who was searching for her… Not Jake Ryan! Ha! Interesting that people were looking for current photos of the cast from The Lost Boys & The NeverEnding Story (don’t click on that – you may ruin your childhood looking at Barret Oliver now). Looking at those posts, I’d forgotten I did this Lost Boys haiku. I like it!:",

null,
"I can’t believe it’s already September. But I must admit that I can’t wait for this month to finish so that I can start posting nothing but horror movie reviews & other horror-movie-related items through all of October. And I love reading all the horror reviews on other blogs, which is weird as it’s hardly my favorite genre! I’ve been watching horror films since July to prepare. And, man – have they sucked! I’m hoping to watch a few good ones by October. So far, this is the only one I’ve enjoyed in the slightest:",

"Mexico City: A technical committee of experts in Mexico gave a unanimous favourable opinion Friday on approving the Covaxin vaccine made by the Indian pharmaceutical company Bharat Biotech.\n\nThe report by the committee for new molecules will be sent to the federal medical safety commission’s approval board, which usually follows such recommendations.\n\nThe interim results from the vaccine manufacturer’s late-stage trials show its COVID-19 vaccine to be about 81 per cent effective in preventing illness from the novel coronavirus.\n\nThe Bharat Biotech vaccine was controversially approved by India in January without waiting for trials to confirm that the vaccine was effective. Since then 1.3 million doses have been administered in India.\n\nHealth care workers have been reticent to take the shots and health experts are concerned the regulatory shortcut has amplified vaccine hesitancy.\n\nBharat Biotech has already signed an agreement with Brazil to supply 20 million doses of the vaccine by September.\n\nIt will be the fifth vaccine approved for use in Mexico, which has received relatively small amounts of each. Mexico has administered only about 2.7 million doses of all vaccines, a tiny amount given the country’s population of 126 million.\n\nHowever, Mexico does so little testing that government excess-death figures suggest the real toll was well above 220,000 at the start of January, the last date for which such figures are available.\n\nThere were almost 6,800 more confirmed cases on Friday, bringing the total to over 2.1 million.\n\n2 years after Tigress Avni was killed, her cub released into wild\nBiden urged not to accept India and S African proposal at WTO on COVID-19"

"Herik Dun Siope grew up fit, but then he gained a lot of weight.\n\nTo Sabbath School teachers: This story is for Sabbath, July 27.\n\nHerik Dun Siope, who grew up in a Seventh-day Adventist home, was flying high as a martial arts expert in the Solomon Islands.\n\nBut then he got busy with work as an architectural drafter. He married and had four children. He rarely read the Bible or went to church. He stopped physical training and ate a lot of easy-to-fix processed food like fish and chips, chicken, and Coca-Cola. Eleven years passed, and Herik grew and grew until he reached 230 pounds (105 kilograms), far above his ideal weight of 145 pounds (65 kilograms).\n\nOne day, Herik’s left foot began to ache dreadfully. Over the weeks, the pain crept up his leg. He sought medical treatment, but nothing helped. Finally, he couldn’t walk.\n\nHerik grew frantic. He knew no blood was circulating in his leg, and he worried that he would lose it. He remembered God.\n\n“Help me find medication,” he prayed.\n\nShortly after he prayed, an elderly relative knocked on his house door in Honiara, capital of the Solomon Islands. The relative said he had felt a strong impression to visit and asked Herik why he couldn’t walk. Herik told about the pain and lack of medication.\n\nHe prepared a home remedy and treated Herik daily. After three weeks, Herik could stand, but he couldn’t walk.\n\n“You’ve lost the muscle in your leg,” the old man said. “You need to exercise your leg.”\n\nHerik thanked God for the healing and prayed, “God, I want You to use me. I want to be a blessing to others. Show me what Your plan is for me.”\n\nAfter praying, Herik felt convicted to lose weight. He was sleeping poorly at night and suffered back pain. When he walked, he had trouble breathing. He knew that his leg pain had been connected to his weight.\n\nBut how to lose weight? Herik remembered Ellen White’s book “Counsels on Diet and Foods” and began to read it. He was amazed as he learned that appetite brought sin into the world. He read, “As our first parents lost Eden through the indulgence of appetite, our only hope of regaining Eden is through the firm denial of appetite and passion” (page 59).\n\nHerik made major changes to his diet. He stopped eating processed food and, after a fierce struggle, eliminated caffeinated drinks. He also stopped using sugar and dairy products. Instead he returned to God’s original plant-based diet of fruit, vegetables, grains, and nuts. He also tried not to eat after 4 p.m. and took care not to overeat.\n\nIn addition, he began to exercise, first by walking daily and then also by learning simple workouts that he could do at home.\n\nIn 12 months, he lost 90 pounds (40 kilograms) — and was back at his ideal weight. He felt healthier and could do chin-ups and other exercises that he hadn’t managed to do even when he engaged in martial arts.\n\nToday, two years later, Herik is 46 years old and leads free fitness classes for overweight islanders in an Adventist-owned auditorium. More than 200 people of various faiths come to him to work out four days a week. He also provides seminars at the country’s Health Ministry and works with private companies. His advice comes straight from Ellen White — and he says people are losing weight and feeling great.\n\n“I realize that this is how God wants to use me, and it has strengthened my spiritual life,” Herik said. “I thank God for the blessing that He has given me, so I can be a blessing to others in this small way.”\n\nPart of this quarter’s Thirteenth Sabbath Offering will support “Save 10,000 Toes,” a project to fight diabetes on the Solomon Islands. “Save 10,000 Toes” — which refers to the amputation of the toes of diabetic people — started in December 2017 and finances Herik’s community exercise program. Thank you for your Sabbath School mission offerings."

"Commonly called Colefax and Fowler for decades, the deluxe London decorating firm of Sibyl Colefax & John Fowler Ltd. has been one of the Mayfair neighborhood’s crowning glories for what seems like forever. Call it the cathedral of chintz or the acme of Anglophilia—just don’t call it set it in stone, or redbrick for that matter.\n\nThis week the company—whose clients have included British, Saudi, and royals, American and U.K. socialites, and all manner of posh but publicity-shy folks since Lady Colefax, a cash-strapped but well-connected barrister’s wife, went into business in the 1930s—announced its new address. Leaving behind its legendary 18th-century redbrick digs at 39 Brook Street and its marvelous hidden garden, Colefax and Fowler has set up shop in another high-rent neighborhood, Belgravia—namely Pimlico Road, joining a notable concentration of smart design destinations there.",
null,
"Fabric and lampshades on shelves in the Pimlico Road location.\n\nThe new spot doesn’t have the history of the Brook Street location, a rambling townhouse where Windsor Castle architect Sir Jeffry Wyatville had his studio in the early 1800s, and the same room that Colefax and Fowler owner Nancy Lancaster transformed into her famous butter-yellow drawing room in the 1950s. But the façade of the late-Victorian building remains redbrick—actually the brilliant bittersweet orange so typical of that time period—and Colefax and Fowler is just the latest in an august line of tastemaking occupants to call 89–91 Pimlico Road home, among them Geoffrey Bennison and Christopher Hodsoll, the founder of Soane.",
null,
"The offices embody a more contemporary direction for the historic company.\n\nThe shop still gathers together alluring antiques (often with painted finishes), British art of all eras, and the succulent fabrics, trimmings, and design services for which the firm has been heralded around the world. But the spirit of the place is far different, emphasizing mix-master settings and a smart contemporary air. This will surely dismay the old guard but delight younger homeowners for whom Colefax and Fowler cofounder John Fowler’s famous and justly fetishized “humble elegance” might seem a trifle granny today.",
null,
"A fireplace in the new offices.\n\n“We have now moved on,” Sibyl Colefax & John Fowler’s refreshed website states, quite firmly. And how. One example? After years of deliberate low-profiling, it lists the firm’s eight decorators individually, with their photographs, direct emails, and the company’s Instagram account (that would be @sibylcolefax, if you’re taking notes). “The change of location brings fresh inspiration and a new lease of life. . . . A new era has begun.” Indeed it has.",

"Vaping may damage the brain: Inhaling high levels of nicotine can destroy stem cells that turn to neurons, study suggests\n\nTrendy e-cigarettes may be damaging users' brains, including those of the millions of teenagers that vape, a new study suggests.\n\nExposure to nicotine from e-cigs breaks down brain cells, according to new research from the University of California, Riverside.\n\nThe same likely applies to any nicotine product, but is particularly worrisome in light of the teen vaping epidemic, because young people's brains are still developing and the damage done by e-cigs may limit their cognitive growth for life.\n\nThe study authors are warning that young people and pregnant women should be particularly wary of vaping as it may not only be addicting by damaging to their minds and the minds of developing babies.",

"A single Juul pod contains as much nicotine as an entire pack of cigarettes. High concentrations of nicotine may kill off stem cells that would otherwise become neurons\n\nE-cigarettes may be less carcinogenic than combustible ones, according to research thus far, but the more scientists learn about them, the more clear it becomes that 'safer' is not the same as safe.\n\nVaping appears to have the same effects on the cardiovascular system that smoking does and popular devices like the Juul use e-liquids with higher concentrations of nicotine than a cigarette contains, making them more addictive.\n\nBut its not just the brain's dependency that the vapor gets to, the UC Riverside team explained.\n\nNicotine starts to damage cells at a much earlier stage, according to their new study in the journal Cell Press.\n\nE-liquid compounds seem to break and enter into the energy centers of stem cells that precede neurons.\n\nTo demonstrate this, the UC Riverside researchers used stem cells from mice and exposed them to e-liquids in the lab.\n\nThey focused on mitochondria, the 'powerhouses' of our cells.\n\nMitochondria serve a second function, too.\n\nThey help to repair stem cells and give them many self-protective mechanisms, ensuring the stem cells will go on to become healthy, functional, fully-fledged cells.\n\nAmong their defense mechanisms is a process called stress-induced mitochondrial hyperfusion (SIMH).\n\nWhen mitochondria detect an overload of oxidative stress - which happens when free radicals set loose by normal metabolism are attacking cells - they link up to one another, finding safety in numbers and closed ranks that keep the rogue molecules from entering the cells.\n\nBut particularly high concentrations of nicotine - such as the contents of one Juul pod, which equates to a whole pack of cigarettes - can overwhelm the chain defense by binding to and 'opening' receptors for the addictive chemical.\n\nThis lets in not only nicotine but calcium, an ionic (or charged) molecule.\n\nCells need calcium, and mitochondria capture and store it, but with the flood gates - in the form of nicotine receptors - flung wide open, the defensive chain of cell power stations can get overwhelmed.\n\nThat may cause abnormal changes in them and even rupture and kill the mitochondria and the stem cells they fuel.\n\n'If the nicotine stress persists, SIMH collapses, the neural stem cells get damaged and could eventually die,' before they ever get a chance to become fully-fledged brain cells, explained lead study author and UC Riverside postdoc, Dr Atena Zahedi explained.\n\n'If that happens, no more specialized cells - astrocytes and neurons, for example - can be produced from stem cells.'\n\nWhile nicotine could have this effect on stem cells for any tissue, the study authors note that inhalation gives nicotine relatively easy access to the brain.\n\nHumans continue to grow new brain cells throughout their lives, recent research has shown, so disruption to their predecessors, stem cells, at any age is bad news.\n\nBut the earlier in development a person is - whether that's in the womb or as a child - the more rapid and fundamental this cell growth is.\n\n'Their brains are in a critical developmental stage,' said Dr Prue Talbot, the director of the UCR Stem Cell Center.\n\n'Nicotine exposure during prenatal or adolescent development can affect the brain in multiple ways that may impair memory, learning, and cognition.\n\n'Furthermore, addiction and dependence on nicotine in youth are pressing concerns. It's worth stressing that it is nicotine that is doing damage to neural stem cells and their mitochondria. We should be concerned about this, given that nicotine is now widely available in ECs and their refill fluids.'\n\nVaping may damage the brain by destroying its stem cells, study suggests"

She asked us to pray for our Iraqi brethren being ruthlessly slaughtered. (On US TV later I would hear that, with our pinpoint bombing, not a single innocent person was killed – I believe the truth lies somewhere between the two biased broadcasts.)\n\nAt night I envisioned the planes I had watched at the Air Show in Paris, only this time they were dropping bombs in a country not too far away.

That’s what a writer does, as Dave had explained to me. A writer tries to make sense of it all.\n\nIn Kashmir, a highly religious region of Pakistan, where the only education the people receive was from their imam, I was warned by my warehouseman-students not to stand outside much, and to not take pictures of anyone. For the local townspeople living near the rig had spotted me, knew I was American, in league with the Devil, and they feared I would somehow steal their souls. To show me they were not superstitious themselves, the warehousemen, who were not local townsfolk, let me capture their souls as shown below.",

"Pakistani warehousemen I trained in 1991: Shahid, Lazarus, Altaf, Mansoor, Mohammed and Paul on Rig 15. Paul was from Karachi, in the south of Pakistan, “a real city of educated people”, he told me, “You must visit me there one day to drink a beer together.”\n\nAt the end of my 3 year contract, I hired on permanently with Schlumberger. I received a 5 year “greencard” from the French authorities (I already had a French Social Security number, and so am eligible for generous French retirement benefits). We moved to a nice house in the Paris suburb of L’Hay les Roses. To allow us to take not only train but also car trips, I bought a used Honda Civic (with standard transmission) for 12,000 French Francs (about $2,000 dollars). To get a French driver’s license I had to attend driving school – my instructor chastised me for not driving aggressively enough in Paris traffic, “You are a danger to all the other drivers who expect you to drive aggressively like them!”\n\nEventually I learned to drive aggressively – I got my license and we went on driving trips, to Italy and Spain. Too I continued to visit rigs in foreign countries (like Nigeria where I was carjacked, boatwrecked, and recruited by the CIA – but that’s another post to be). Slowly Paris became a bit same-old, same-old, as all places do in time. The longer you stay in a place, the longer you “learn” a place, the brain slowly goes on automatic, it needs only a tiny bit of itself to get you through the day, no longer triggered by what was once new and wonderful, no longer struggling to understand the language and the customs, as we do when we are toddlers. The brain goes on autopilot, and boredom arrives.\n\nWas it time to move on, move on as my older brother Steve had done (after a couple years as Military Attache at the American Embassy in Paris, a couple years giving parties every week to make contact with other attaches and consuls, to make international contacts and possibly get information slips from them after they consume one too many free bottles of red)?\n\nSteve had moved on to Germany, with his first wife and his daughters Shani and Chantal. My own inclination was to return home.\n\nAfter 5 years, bored with my job and bored with Paris, I decided both I and the kids would have more opportunity, richer lives, if I returned the family to the US. I gave notice. When you give notice in France from a high-skilled position like mine in France, the last few weeks (as dictated by the Commite de’Entreprise/Employee Union) you are allowed time off to go look for new work. So we crammed into the Civic and took the ferry to England, to “look for work” in London and at Stonehenge (where the circle of stones gave off a vibe of mystery and antiquity, but no job offers) and we “looked for work” at Shakepeare’s birthplace Stratford-upon-Avon (I will never forget the peaceful beauty with the graceful white swans on the water; but alas, the swans too were not hiring). After our tour of England, and several long walks around Paris to say goodbye to the most beautiful city in the world, we flew home to the States.",

"The return to the USA was a huge culture shock for me and the kids – I missed the easy travel to so many different countries, each with their own language and culture (and I sensed an even stronger disconnect with fellow Americans than I had felt before I left) – I think the kids missed mostly the privileged upbringing they left behind in Paris. Frances, I think, felt right at home, as more and more Mexicans had flooded the Dallas area.\n\nAfter getting my Master’s in Technical Instruction, I eventually hired on with a company called UniData, later bought by IBM, where I continued specializing in coding and mentoring customers.\n\nI enjoyed being a speaker at several conferences for IBM and later Rocket Software, in places like Las Vegas, Orlando, Denver, Sydney, and Kuala Lumpur.\n\nFrom traveling around Europe and the world for Schlumberger, I ended up traveling all over the US and a bit around the world for IBM (and later for Rocket Software). My risky roll of the career and family dice in going to Paris, and then returning from Paris, paid off with many trips experienced and many tales to tell."

"Bethany Koval is an 16-year old Israeli Jewish student at Fair Lawn High School, but she’s also accumulated thousands of followers on Twitter for her outspoken views on apartheid Israel’s treatment of Palestine. Unfortunately, she’s also found herself accused of bullying after a student apparently complained to her school about tweets she’d written over her December holiday break.\n\nKoval was summoned to speak with school administrators on Wednesday, and tweeted out updates throughout the day on her account, @bendykoval. “Principal just called me down. I’m about to be exposed for being anti-Israel. Pray for me.” read one widely retweeted message from the incident.\n\nSupporters quickly spread her story on Twitter, leading to the hashtag #IStandWithBenny and even pledges of support from the Anonymous hacktivist collective:\n\nAlthough Koval made her Twitter account private on Thursday, Muftah, an independent news site focused on the Middle East, compiled many of her tweets from December which likely got her into trouble.\n\nIn the series of Tweets, decried the high body count of Israel’s brutal assault on Gaza last summer, during which over 2,100 civilians died, most of them children. Koval defined why she believes Israel’s occupation of Palestine should be considered apartheid, and decried both the slaying of the Palestinian Dawabsheh family in an arson and the later stabbing of a photo of the Dawabsheh’s toddler by Israelis at a wedding party in an illegal settlement. Two settlers have been charged in the slaying, Amiram Benoliel and Elisha Odess, who is a U.S. citizen.\n\nIn other tweets, Koval also celebrated a pro-Israel classmate unfollowing her, and shared that student’s name with another classmate on Twitter.\n\nAccording to Nathan Tempey, writing for Gothamist, school administrators initially forced Koval to write up a written statement, then allowed her to rescind it with the intention of bringing a new statement to a follow-up meeting on Thursday. According to Annie Robbins, writing in Mondoweiss, she’s also retained the legal services of activist and lawyer Stanley Cohen.\n\nBruce Watson, the superintendent of Fair Lawn public schools, defended officials actions in a statement issued on Thursday, insisting that “at no time have District officials sought to censor or reprimand any pupils for their online speech” but that they were forced to take action by “New Jersey’s anti-bullying statute — one of the strictest in the nation.”\n\nIn a follow-up article published in Gothamist, Alexander Shalom, senior staff attorney at ACLU-New Jersey, told Tempey that while he’d heard of New Jersey’s anti-bullying law being applied to protected political speech in the past, “This is probably the most egregious example of it I’ve heard.”\n\nShalom also told Tempey that this case was an example of the ACLU’s concerns when the anti-bullying law was proposed:\n\n“The school only has a right to regulate conduct when it has an impact on the orderly operation of the school” he said, continuing, “There are real concerns about the school getting involved in the business of students on break.”\n\n“How a NJ Teenager Got Railroaded By Her School for Being Pro-Palestine” from Muftah:"

"The Norse gods and the Greek gods are fighting, and it's all Loki's fault. It's like they made this game specifically to catch my interest.\n\nHigh Heavens is a tabletop game designed by Ryan Lesser and produced by Wild Power Games. It's a board game that uses miniatures to create fast-paced combat between classical pantheons of dieties. The story goes that Loki, the Norse trickster god, broke free of his imprisonment on the eve of Ragnarok and crossed into Mount Olympus. You may remember Loki from such shenanigans as sleeping with a horse and fathering Sleipnir, or leading the Chitauri invasion of New York City. Once he reached Olympus, Loki told Ares that the Norse gods were threatening the Greek gods’ territory, and convinced him to wage war against Asgard. Odin, who already has Ragnarok to deal with, is understandably a bit miffed about this and leads his forces out as well.",
null,
"As a side note, it's now extremely hard to find a picture of Loki where he doesn't look like Tom Hiddleston\n\nI got the chance to demo High Heavens at PAX East 2016, and I found it to be an interesting combination of a miniatures game and a card game. Each player has a deck representing their pantheon and maintains a hand of five cards. Each turn, each player gets three Action Points to use however they like. They can use these Action points to Invoke gods and summon them to the battlefield, move gods who are already in play, make attacks and use abilities, or play action cards to support their forces. Once they have run out of Action Points, control passes to their opponent. Whoever maneuvers to and destroys their enemy’s base, or kills all gods in the enemy’s deck, wins.\n\nBecause of this hybrid of miniatures game and card game, High Heavens isn’t nearly as complex as some other minis games. It’s a lot easier to learn than Malifaux, and way simpler to set up and play than Warhammer 40k. It’s accessible to beginners, but has enough to offer that experienced players can enjoy it as well. Games of High Heavens are also relatively short, generally lasting from around thirty minutes to just over an hour.\n\nTwo pantheons engaged in battle. The game benefits from having an easy to understand battlefield, as well as the cards\n\nIt’s a good enough game based on that alone, but the design is really where High Heavens shines. One of the hardest parts of any miniatures game is keeping track of everything: which characters have moved and which haven’t, who has which bonuses, how much damage everyone has taken, and so on. The creator Ryan Lesser - thanks to a background in video game design - wanted to come up with a sort of HUD to show players all of that information more efficiently.\n\nThanks to that vision, High Heavens has a system that simplifies all of the data. There are a variety of rings that slot right into the figures to represent Health, Attack Bonus, and a few other things. These rings make it easy to take in the situation at a glance. Combined with the highly visible Action Tokens and Home Base Health (as seen in the picture above), they really help to keep the action moving. It seems like a little thing, but maintaining the flow of gameplay makes a big difference.",
null,
"If High Heavens has one weakness, it’s in the lack of variety. There are only two factions if you’ve only bought the base game, and options are pretty limited within those factions. As of right now a third pantheon, the Egyptians, is currently available as an expansion, and there’s a “Bloody” expansion that has alternate versions of a lot of the Greek and Norse gods. However - and here I’m speaking both to our readers and to myself - bear in mind that this is still a very new game. The representative I spoke with at PAX said that there are plans for adding more expansions and possibly even whole new pantheons as time goes on.\n\nYes, High Heavens is every bit as metal as it sounds.\n\nWith a (relatively) low price tag of $65.00 for the base game, it’s easy enough for miniatures fans to get into. Overall, High Heavens is a good little minis game with a fun twist in the form of cards, and some great design ideas really push it over the top. With a pretty low entry point compared to a lot of miniatures games, it’s definitely worth a look.\n\nWhich pantheon is your favorite? Who’s the strongest god of all? Why is Loki such a jerk? Leave a comment, or hit up our Facebook or Twitter and leave us a note!"

"We have posted 25 Card of the Day articles already, but this one today is just our second guest submission. Two weeks back, Kevin Cummings wrote about the 1887 N172 card of Pittsburgh Alleghenys second baseman Sam Barkley, talking about the famous Old Judge set and the player depicted on that card. Today’s card is 111 years newer than that Barkley card, but it has an interesting story of its own.\n\nJim Rosati, who ran the Pirates site North Side Notch, shares a card he owns of a young Jose Guillen. The picture on the front is a great pose, while the back has an interesting fun fact.\n\nToday’s Card of the Day is the first Topps card of the outfielder with the strongest arm that Pirates fans my age have ever seen, Jose Guillen. Guillen was a very highly touted prospect when he cracked the Pirates Opening Day roster at age 20 in 1997 and was a key member of that ‘97 team that would be dubbed, “The Freak Show.”",
null,
null,
"There’s a lot going on with the front of this card that I love. First, there’s Guillen doing the same pose as Clemente in front of his statue located outside Three Rivers Stadium. If you haven’t watched Guillen’s arm lately, click here really quick and come back to read the rest of this.\n\nThe second thing I love about this is the Topps All Star Rookie Cup on the top right, symbolizing Guillen being named as one of the top rookies from 1997.",
null,
null,
"The first thing that jumps out here is the bio. It provides a super fun fact about Guillen. The guy made the ‘97 Opening Day roster without playing Double-A or Triple-A ball. After tearing up the Carolina League, Guillen made the jump straight to the Majors. Can you imagine that happening with someone on today’s Pirates? The story about hurdling a picnic table is also an awesome added anecdote.\n\nWhile the back of the card says, “Rookie Card,” that isn’t exactly the case here. That designation is officially attributed to Guillen’s 1996 Bowman and Bowman’s Best cards.\n\nAgain, going back to the bio on the card, was he rushed? Could he have had more success with Pittsburgh if he was given more time to develop? I guess we’ll never know.\n\nBecause Guillen became more of a role player throughout his career, this card can be had for under $1 most places you look, and is quite a neat piece for any Pirates collection.\n\nThat arm, though. Jeez."

"ON JAN. 19, a breakwall is under ice on Lake Superior at Saxon Harbor, as the worst winter on record on the Gogebic Range is only beginning. The frigid weather led to early ice fishing on the lake.\n\nIRONWOOD - The Deep Freeze of last winter will continue to affect Gogebic Range communities for years to come.\n\nThe coldest winter on record in Ironwood drove the frost deep and ruptured pipes and watermains, creating an estimated $3 million damage in Gogebic County.\n\nIronwood pegged damages from the coldest winter in the past 110 years at $1.7 million.\n\nInfrastructure repairs will continue throughout 2015.\n\nIt was so cold during the winter that although there was ample snow, windchill readings as low as minus 40 for several days kept outdoor enthusiasts, like snowmobilers and skiers, indoors.\n\nSchool districts were forced to add more classroom days to the calendar in the spring to make up for snow days, as on at least 10 mornings it was just to cold or snowy to send the buses out.\n\nThe second consecutive severe winter took a heavy toll on the deer herd before the snowfall ended late in spring.\n\nPropane fuel users suffered with costs that tripled from shortages and Gov. Scott Walker addressed those rising costs during a January appearance before the Hurley and Ironwood Chambers of Commerce.\n\nThe severe winter wasn't all bad, however. In February, blue ice formed at Little Girl's Point on Lake Superior and hundreds of visitors bundled up and trekked out for miles. Thousands also visited the Lake Superior Ice Caves near Bayfield, Wis.\n\nThe woes from the winter didn't end when more than 200 inches of snow finally melted. Luckily, spring flooding damage wasn't heavy on the Gogebic Range.\n\nAs 2014 ended, the Ironwood City Commission authorized a request for qualifications for engineering services to cover a Big Freeze project grant. Project funding of about $530,000 is being sought for Ironwood through a state Urgent Need Fund to cover added costs created when frost that drove eight feet deep caused infrastructure repairs far beyond budgeted expenses.\n\nShortly before the year ended, Gov. Rick Snyder announced emergency Deep Freeze funds for Ironwood, Bessemer and Wakefield. Ironwood will receive $100,000, Bessemer $92,251 and Wakefield $83,102 to partly cover costs of the severe winter of 2013-14.\n\nThe communities are also seeking funding from other sources.\n\n\"Communities on both sides of the bridge are still recovering from last spring's flooding and last winter's brutally cold temperatures and deep frost levels,\" Snyder said.\n\nSnyder first declared a state of emergency for Upper Peninsula flooding on April 17, then on May 7 it was amended to include Gogebic County and other counties for the severe winter.\n\nIn July, Michigan was notified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency that northern Michigan communities affected by the Deep Freeze didn't meet the required federal threshold for a presidential disaster declaration, but in October the Michigan Strategic Fund approved more than $7.6 million in aid for winter damages.\n\nWhile Gogebic Range residents were still reeling from the severe winter and looking forward to weather relief in the spring, it didn't turn out that way.\n\nA spring and summer of very wet and cold weather continued to set records. The National Weather Service office in Marquette said the period from Jan. 1 through Nov. 30, 2014, was the second coldest 11-month span since 1901.\n\nNovember added icing on the cake with the most snowfall in Ironwood in the past 110 years and the second coldest temperatures. Lake Superior-effect snow piled up to a whopping 89.2 inches for the month, while the average temperature of 21.2 was 8.6 degrees below normal.\n\nThere were four consecutive days of 10 inches or more snowfall.\n\nFortunately for the area deer herd, much of the on-the-ground total of 40 inches of snow melted on a very warm day during deer season."

"Chicago has issued an $85.6 million building permit to complete the construction of the “Solstice on the Park” 26-story rental tower at 1616 E. 56 St. in Hyde Park.\n\nLinn-Mathes Inc. is listed as the general contractor for the project developed by Antheus Capital and MAC Properties. The rental project will have 250 apartments and a five-story parking garage.\n\nSolstice represents the third recent Hyde Park project from Chicago-based Studio Gang Architects. The Jeanne Gang-led design firm’s angular City Hyde Park apartment block opened in the first half of 2016 while the group’s University of Chicago dormitory project known as Campus North Residential Commons welcomed its first batch of student residents in the fall. Solstice on the Park is expected to be completed by spring of 2018."

"For the Maybins, fall in the city means an educational opportunity. Photo by Tim Robison.\n\nIt’s still popular to skew notions of “urban” and “rural” as disjointed opposites: farmers work the fields; white-collars infiltrate the skyscrapers. That’s been the prevailing notion since the 19th century, when America sought to industrialize at a breakneck pace. Even in low-key Hendersonville, where the gold-domed Historic County Courthouse reigns instead of corporate towers, this concept is mainstream. But in our haste to assign binaries — black and white, old and young, farm and city — we often disregard the liminal space existing between the two.\n\nAn eighth-generation farmer, Theron can’t remember a time when he wasn’t cultivating the land running alongside the Green River. At age five, he began milking family cows and preserving veggies, and at 15, he drove cattle from the southeastern reaches of the county to Main Street for Farm City Day.\n\nIn ’76, the production had only recently moved from the Roses Discount Store parking lot (now Fresh Market) to downtown, says event coordinator Karen Saine of Henderson County Parks & Recreation. Roosters cawed on the back of pickup trucks and ponies shifted in stopgap corrals. Like today, quilters showed off their traditional patterns — including the well-known “Drunkard’s Path” — and woodworkers their rough-sawn pine.\n\nHowever, some customs would be phased out in the ensuing years — namely the greased-pig chase. Theron’s sister-in-law, Terry Maybin, recalls the tradition of dredging good-sized squealers — 20 to 50 pounds — in Vaseline and homemade lard. Once the hogs were nice and slick, they’d be let loose, as would crowds of children, all set on catching the slippery, prized animal. “None were injured,” Terry promises, referring to both kids and swine. But in every way, the fun was a bit too pungent for modern sensibilities.\n\nThe event moved to Jackson Park (a more shaded and obliging location, notes Theron), and since then not much has changed, at least on the surface. Like she has since her first year attending, Terry dons a handmade bonnet and apron, filling her pockets with “toys and whatnot.” She rides in a haywagon and oversees old-fashioned games — the egg toss, the sack race, the corn-shucking contest. Potters labor over their wheels and crafters their hand tools, all in the name of preserving “old ways.”\n\nFarm City Day bridges the past with the present, the urban with the rural. And things do change — witness the strong rise of agritourism and small-scale farming among younger growers in the region. Farm and city folk still “depend on one another,” notes Saine.\n\nBut for Theron, a disabled Vietnam veteran, it’s more personal. The event gestures to the agricultural spirit that will continue to define him, regardless of bounty. “I once had crops, pigs, chickens, and cows,” he reminisces. “But I only dream about it now.”"

"Mike! That would take care of shipping but then I would touch it!! Fins would be gone. LOL Wish there was an outline with some known offset that would guide a pencil or a knife for marking?\n\nI’m not sure… I’ll just have to print it and find out how strong it is.\n\nWell, I have to admit I would love to see your stuff up close and personal. Let me know what you had in mind.\n\nWill do. I just need to figure out what to send over and when to stop printing.\n\nMike- Still thinking out loud here. Just more rattling from my head… what about separate replaceable fins? Print out an extra set of fins with some sort of locating hole and peg feature? Just a thought\n\nI received my order from @MikeyBugs and they look great in gray resin!\n\nThe details of the 1/16 Mark 18 carbines are amazing as are the spare magazines that are included with them. Each carbine looks like an exact duplicate as they should.\n\nYes, @MikeyBugs can do it! He can print it, ship it, and deliver.\n\nIt may take some time, but @MikeyBugs can achieve your 3D desires and orders.\n\nHaving communicated with @MikeyBugs, I can highly recommend his products. They come with the 3D supports cut off and well packaged to avoid damage. Mikeybugs’ resin is light, strong, light gray, and super-detailed. His products are not a gimmick and his resin sure beats Shapeways’ resin. It’s well worth it and will definitely add value and uniqueness to any figure. Thumbs way up!\n\nMike- Still thinking out loud here. Just more rattling from my head… what about separate replaceable fins? Print out an extra set of fins with some sort of locating hole and peg feature? Just a thought\n\nI can certainly try that. I’ll try both methods on my next print. Worst comes to worse, I can’t print the fins.\n\nBut I never posted a rendering of the AK-47 model I designed. And now I also have an AKS-47. And yes, the AKS comes with both folded and extended stocks.",

"It IS a Type 56. It just shares the same designation with the Chinese version of the SKS.\n\nThe Type 56 (Chinese: 56式突击步枪; literally; \"Assault Rifle, Model of 1956\") is a Chinese 7.62×39mm rifle. It is a variant of the Soviet-designed AK-47 (specifically Type 3) and AKM rifles. The Type 56 rifle was designated by the Chinese military as \"Type 1956 Sub-Machinegun\", because the Type 56 took the role of SMG rather than infantry service rifle in the PLA in the rifle's early service years. Production started in 1956 at State Factory 66 but was eventually handed over to Norinco a During the ...\n\nOh, no not the picture you posted but the one I did. The render I posted is not of a Type 56 but of another AK-47 based rifle.\n\nYours would be a Type 2.",

It has the full size strengthening plate (?) beneath the rear sight base and strengthening ribs on the lower receiver. The AKS I made uses the Type 3 receiver. I also recently finished an AKM and AKMS about two days ago.\n\nOk, a render of the AKM is here! And coincidentally, I can announce that I have an AKM and AKMS to go with the AK-47 and AKS-47.",
null,
"Nice. If they are anywhere near as detailed as the weapons I just submitted for review, they will be awesome.\n\nSo I’ve been working on a RPK for the last week or so and I believe it’s done. Unfortunately I just haven’t been able to get the drum mag worked out yet. Comes as Bakelite magazines and stamped steel magazines versions. The bipod is offered as both separate extended and folded bipods but I’m still working on the attachment method.",
null,
"Yes, the backs of the bipods are solid but they’re also about 0.5mm thick. I’ll see if open back bipods will print though.\n\nIf anyone wants the RPK, a SINGARS radio set, the AK-47 or AKM, and just a few of the M4 series I have, along with a number of the other items I offer, I just put up more onto HobbyMarket. Unfortunately, the category selections are in greek, but at least it’s easy to navigate.\nSINCGARS Radios\nRPK\nAKM\n\nNot all of the M4 carbines or Mk 18’s or M16’s are up yet but I’m working on it. If you want anything not shown on the storefront, you can email me at\n\nor simply shoot me a message here.\n\nUnfortunately I just found out that the LCD screen in my printer is dead. I’ve gotten 3 failed prints with large sections printing where nothing should be, staggered prints, long lines running across the plate, and prints falling off the build plate. So now my printer is down again until I get another screen in… In 8-16 days. Including processing and self-installation that’s realistically 9-17 days. As a contingency, I bought 2 just to have a backup when this happens again that way I can simply swap the screens and move on without having to wait 2 weeks for delivery.\n\nBummer. Is this a common issue with printers?\n\nUnfortunately yes. The LCD screen in my printer, and typically in these types of printers, only have an average working life of around 2k-3k print hours. I can expect to replace the screen about twice a year printing at the rate I had been. I’ve been looking at a 2nd printer that uses Digital Light Projection, or DLP, technology. It’s just a projector similar to what you’d find in a small home movie projector but using UV light. That has a rated useful life of around 20k hours.\n\nSurprisingly the LCDs came in today! I wasn’t expecting them so soon so I’ll be installing them tonight and I get back to printing.\n\nOk now that my printer is working again, I was able to print a few orders and some additional things I wanted to print. I found that the RPG fins are very fragile and it was tough even cutting them free from the supports. I think I over supported them. But I did manage to finish the MT-6353 with the AM-7239 that I started shortly after I finished my SINCGARS set… 6 or so years ago. If anyone who previously ordered a SINCGARS from me wants one, I’ll print it and send it out. From here on, one is being included with all SINCGARS sets ordered.",

"Martin Whitmarsh is still hanging about somewhere or other.\n\nThe now ex-Mclaren Racing CEO was replaced by uber-Mclaren boss, Ron Dennis in January and hasn’t been seen in public since.\n\nIt’s thought he might be hiding in a box somewhere or maybe a cupboard but until he shows his face everyone will just have to accept he’s alive and well and therefore still a potential nuisance.\n\nPaddock pundit, Bough Godfrey said, “a man like Whitmarsh thrives on being at the hub of complex, high pressure environments where he can busy himself fucking everything up left, right and centre.”",

"A spectacular concert of highlights!\n\nThe night was charged with the anticipation of opera fans, young and old in the foyer of the QPAC. Many were suitably attired in dicky bows and formal gowns, although there were some rebels in civvies like myself. The Queensland Symphony Orchestra’s Opera Gala is the perfect concert both for opera aficionados and also for the less operatically acquainted, as a brilliant introduction to opera with the boring bits removed!\n\nThe program highlighted the best of the “big four” in opera with excerpts from Verdi, Puccini, Bizet and Rossini. Excerpts from the most popular iconic operas were included with Verdi’s Triumphal March and the lesser-known Tomb Scene from Aida, the beautiful Love Duet and the unusual Humming Chorus from Puccini’s Madama Butterfly. Bizet’s duet from The Pearl Fishers and two stunning excerpts from Carmen with the Toreador Song and Habanera were amongst the 15 excerpts.\n\nRossini’s popular rousing Overture to William Tell was a familiar highlight and two rare pieces Hymn to the Sun and Easter Hymn by Pietro Mascagni bookended the concert, both rousing Australian premieres with pizazz.\n\nMia Stanton earned her stripes when she enthusiastically opened the evening for her first concert as a fully-fledged 1st violin for the QSO. Her announcement was greeted with fervent applause, as can always be expected from the supportive QSO audience.\n\nWe experienced a dramatic sunrise in Mascagni’s Hymn to the Sun. Dawn opened the concert dramatically from the inky blackness as Phoebe Russell’s dark double bass resonated across the concert hall. The instruments gradually joined her with the tentative light, until the brass serenaded the sun and the massive Brisbane Chorale greeted the majestic dawn with fervour.\n\nA fabulous concert ensued with the crystalline voices of the four soloists soaring across the audience. The eighty-five-strong Brisbane Chorale, directed by Musical Director Emily Cox AM, had the concert hall ringing with the hum of the unusual Humming Chorus from Puccini’s Madama Butterfly.\n\nMexican tenor Diego Torre and Armenian-Australian soprano Natalie Aroyan had a touching moment clinging to one another in the beautiful Love Duet whilst Conductor Dane Lam was balletic on the podium swooping and diving with large expressive circling arms.\n\nBizet’s Au fond du temple saint duet from The Pearl Fishers between Torre and the Argentine-Australian baritone José Carbó was sublime, and my highlight of the evening.\n\nVerdi’s Sanctus and the Triumphal March were incredible with the sheer volume of sound produced from around 150 performers! You could almost hear the elephants from Aida trumpeting and marching, such were the reverberations. Lam was leaping up and down clearing a foot or so in height as he vigorously conducted.\n\nA deliberate change of pace slowed had the tragic love triangle between Aroyan and Torre trapped in the tomb whilst one of Australia’s most successful artists, Mezzo-soprano Deborah Humble, as the princess lamenting her loss.\n\nOffenbach’s iconic Belle Nuit (Barcarolle) from The Tales of Hoffman was superb, with Humble and Aryon accompanied by a whirling cello and flirtatious flute and harp and another highlight in a concert of highlights.\n\nBizet’s two Carmen excerpts were also brilliant. With a stunning Habanera solo from Humble, who admitted her first opera appearance in Brisbane with Carmen had been eighteen years ago in 2004. Baritone Carbo had a robust and full tone like a well-aged whisky, as he pompously strutted with the male members of the Brisbane Chorale in Toreador.\n\nAt the concert’s conclusion, the audience welcomed the performers with almost unending applause spurning a moving encore from the four soloists with Verdi’s Bella figlia dell'amore from Rigoletto.\n\nIn a celebration of the QSO’s 75th year, it was fitting that this was the most spectacular and enjoyable of their Opera Gala concerts, with a fiesta of intermezzo’s, duets and a dramatic chorus!\n\nThankfully, you can relive the concert on ABC Classic on June 25th at 1pm (AEDT)."

"Iraq’s economy will strengthen this year as a result of higher oil prices but this will not be enough to stabilize it over the long term, according to Moody’s.",
null,
"“The rating affirmation reflects credit challenges posed by Iraq's exceptionally high economic and fiscal reliance on oil, and very weak institutions and governance that … will continue to limit policy effectiveness, constrain the government's capacity to respond to external and domestic shocks and weigh on the already low competitiveness of Iraq's economy,” Moody’s said as quoted by The National.\n\nIraq is OPEC’s second-largest oil producer but years of war with Islamic State have left it even more vulnerable to oil price swings than its fellow OPEC members. To date, the country relies on oil for as much as 90 percent of its budget spending.\n\nIt was because of this excessive dependence on oil revenues that Iraq struggled to meet its production quota under the OPEC+ production control agreements from the past couple of years. Iraq’s non-compliance proved so blatant that at one point Saudi Arabia threatened its neighbour to open its own taps to punish it for pumping too much.\n\nLately, however, Iraq has been careful with its quota. The latest figures from state-owned SOMO confirm it as the company reported a decline in oil output from May to June and also a slight decline in exports.\n\nMeanwhile, in a fresh blow to the already troubled state, Oil Minister Ihsan Abdul Jabbar said last week Russia’s Lukoil had formally notified the government it planned to exit the West Qurna-2 field and that BP, too, was thinking about leaving Iraq. The minister cited the unfavourable investment climate as reason for the companies’ plans.",

"Jo Seung-woo, who rose to fame in “Jekyll and Hyde,” stars in the musical “Doctor Zhivago,” currently running at the Charlotte Theater in Jamsil, southwestern Seoul. Provided by OD Musical Company\n\n\nJust a over month after accepting the lead role in “Doctor Zhivago,” its star Jo Seung-woo is proving he is a capable leading man. But whether he can continue to carry the show above a weak script is another matter.\n\nJo made his debut in the role on Feb. 14, following the sudden departure in January of actor Ju Ji-hoon from the 2006 hit drama series “The Palace.”\n\nThis musical, based on Boris Pasternak’s 20th-century novel of the same title, is being performed in Korea for the first time. It is running now through June 3 at the Charlotte Theater in Jamsil, southwestern Seoul.\n\nThe musical was produced through a collaboration between Korean, Australian and American companies and it premiered in Australia in February 2011, though an earlier version premiered in the U.S. in 2006.\n\nJu left the cast just over two weeks before the musical was set to open on Jan. 27 claiming vocal cord injuries.\n\nThe creative team was here earlier this year to put the performance together for the Korean cast.\n\nJo, who rose to stardom in “Jekyll and Hyde,” which ended its most recent run last year, was a charismatic and romantic leading man. It was hard to believe that he was able to fit into the role so easily after only a month of rehearsal.\n\nHe shows empathy and urgency while treating his patients while also demonstrating his determination as he expresses the character’s poetic ambitions.\n\nIn his scenes with Lara, who becomes the love of Zhivago’s life, Jo conveys the passion of a forbidden love. The yearning gaze that he bestowed upon Lara was so real at one point that it was easy to forget that the character is married.\n\nThough Jo’s performance carries the show, fans of the book may still find themselves disappointed with this adaptation. The script doesn’t allow for enough character development, leaving many of the scenes feeling empty.\n\nWhereas the most famous adaptation of the book, the 1965 film produced by David Lean and featuring Egyptian actor Omar Sharif as Zhivago and English actress Julie Christie as Lara, achieved a good balance between historical detail and romance, this version doesn’t fully explain how Zhivago and Lara come to love one another after just a couple of brief interactions.\n\nUltimately, the musical survives thanks to the appearance of the talented actor, but if it is to succeed with a different cast, the creative team will have to work more on developing the relationship between the two leads.\n\nThe musical is set to be presented in London’s West End next year, but no further details have been announced."

"To clarify, Cyberpunk 2077 sets to release on November 19th, expected to be one of the biggest games of the year. Almost all gamers wait patiently for this. Meanwhile, Cyberpunk 2077, Twitter is busy dropping fans some content to make them curious about the game. Most recently, they teased the graphics of new characters.\n\nMr. Goldhand (the posh man with golden hands) is one of the new characters. Unfortunately, only the names alongside the pictures with no other information about the characters given in the tweet. It opposed to the recently revealed Evelyn Parker of the Mox gang.\n\nSelected for you\nOverpromise and Underperforming, How's Cyberpunk 2077 Doing A Month After Its Release\n\nThere not much about Mr. Goldhand outside of the image. Therefore, fans are left to speculate and dig through gameplay trailers. Although, in the 2019 Deep Dive, a mercenary caught saying, “Mr. Hands sent me.” It seems to be a reference to Mr. Goldhand, in light of the character reveal.\n\nNext, a little more lore about Mr. Jenkins, on the other hand. While playing as the Corpo-Rat, V works as an officer for Jenkins, who’s mad that he not considered for promotion. V gets caught in the middle of a feud between Jenkins and another executive.\n\nMany on Twitter are quick to compare the mysterious Mr. Jenkins to the Illusive Man from the Mass Effect series. Due to his ominous posture and enigmatic design. It looks like he’ll be playing a significant role in the Corporate Lifepath, should players choose this option.\n\nSelected for you\nCD Projekt Red Attacked by Hackers, Cyberpunk 2077 and The Witcher 3 Source Code Was Stolen\n\nCyberpunk also recently teased some attractive graphics of one of Night City’s most handsome districts, Westbrook. As a district for the corporate upper class, in contrast with those riddled with gang wars and drug trafficking. It’s considered by many to be the “best place to live and have fun in Night City.” Perhaps players who choose the Corporate Lifepath will have a few more eddies to spend in Westbrook."

The mail, racist and threatening, has been seized by the judicial police. The minister of the Interior has filed a complaint. Contacted, his office has confirmed the referral of the court and the police to shed light on these threats. Gérald Darmanin, himself, did not wish to comment on the information of the Point.\n\nAfter a ranger has been placed in police custody while he was running around his private home in Tourcoing, a few days after his appointment, the first cop of France has become a target for all kinds of people, who use accusations of rape made against him in order to legitimize their threats.

"Israel's Netanyahu urges world powers to maintain pressure on \"rogue\" Iran: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu urged world powers to maintain pressure on Iran Sunday en route to Washington to participate in a briefing on Iran's nuclear program , according to AFP. Recent efforts to pursue diplomatic routes with Iranian President Hassan Rouhani and Tehran's government, particularly on its nuclear program development, has increased Israel's concerns that Western governments will ease sanctions before Iran implements any substantial policy changes.\n\"As long as we don't see actions but only words, the international pressure must continue and increase...[with greater pressure], the higher the chance its military nuclear program will be dismantled,\" Netanyahu said. Netanyahu further remarked that pursuing diplomacy with Tehran could legitimize the \"rogue regime.\"\nNetanyahu does not want peace or a 2 state solution. It scares him that we do and that we will give Iran a break.\n\nI am sick of Israel's provocation while they blame it on Palestinian's and the rest of the world. They are the problem not the cure! Iran is a big problem but Israel thinks they are the chosen ones and can do whatever they want. They are the biggest problem and we created her.\n\nUN Envoy Condemns New West Bank Settlements No kidding but damn it they could care less! They will not stop until they instigate a middle east war and overwhelmed as we already are, forces us to have to come to their rescue as I said years ago.\n\nThe only thing to do is to force the instigating war mongers Israel to adhere to 181 or leave them to their own demise and Iran would see to it. You know, first reading how Israel and Palestine was allotted their territories in 1948 I do not condone that Israel has not been forced to adhere to that resolution. We, the US Britain and Europe especially are as guilty as Israel for not insisting Israel adhere to UN Resolution 181.\n\nYou know I say often that we are Israel's lap dog, her pit Bull that will do the fighting for her when she gets in trouble. Israel I came to realize is the worlds chief warmonger and the US the enforcer. It became obvious that coming to Israel's rescue would be how the US has the excuse to go after Iran. No bargaining make Israel adhere to UN resolution 181, no alternative! It is more than fair and equitable.\n\nThe Israel, Palestinian, Iran, Syria, Middle East issue will never be resolved peacefully Knowing that I have to agree with Ahmadinejad when he said if the US and Europe felt so bad for what happened to the Jews during WW2 then they should have given them part of their country.\n\nIsrael's ultra secret group of killers inside Mossad unknown even to them \"Kidon\" is well entrenched in Iran.\n\nIran vs. Israel: Can Israel and Iran be expected to work toward collective security measures, or are they unable to overcome their deeply engrained theocratic rivalry? By Laurelle Atkinson. Yeah let Iran wipe Israel off the map period end of discussion as far as Iran is concerned!\n\nI reiterate there will never be peace in the Middle East, period! Only the UN wants it, Israel wants it her way and Iran/Syria want Israel obliterated, period. Israel and Iran have long been in preparation for this confrontation. As you know, when asked by a journalist how he felt upon returning to Iran in 1979 after 15 years in exile. Khomeini’s curt, one-word reply was “nothing” Whoa! From day one of his return to Iran Khomeini expressed no love for Iran only a love of the atom bomb. The drive even then was to possess a nuclear weapon though that desire is still denied until Iran can get their hands on one.\n\nI have tried to give Iran the benefit of the doubt when they say their nuclear desires are peaceful knowing they could use nuclear power as an energy source for their growing population. I have always asserted that perceived need could be cover for the real goal of developing a nuclear weapon.\n\nThe nuclear program of Iran was launched in the 1950s with the help of the United States as part of the Atoms for Peace program.[1] The support, encouragement and participation of the United States and Western European governments in Iran's nuclear program continued until the 1979 Islamic revolution that toppled the Shah of Iran. We are so concerned about Pakistan and Iran today in regard to nuclear abilities and nuclear weapons and security. I was blown away to find out that we built the first nuclear Reactors in both Iran and Pakistan. Nuclear program of Iran - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia atoms for peace\n\nI would have to assume this was after we overthrew the democratically elected President of Iran Mohammad Mosaddeq to install our ruthless puppet the Shah of Iran. We built and supplied Iran's first reactor because we thought we were in control. What the hell is wrong with us? That makes us personally responsible for the 1979 Revolution in Iran, the capture of our hostages, the disaster in the desert after a failed attempt to rescue them, the rise of the Revolutionary Guard, the protesters dilemma, the nuclear issue in Iran today, everything!\n\nYou know, I have long said that Iran’s civilian nuclear program is a cover for their nuclear weapons program. Now I see that Arab leaders feel the same way. They fear a nuclear arms race and I can only conclude that knowing how far along Iran is and how they feel that they are hedging their bets and it is already under way clandestinely.\n\nOn the other side there is Israel! I realized a long time ago that Israel is the world's chief war monger and we seem to do their bidding and fighting. If they get into a war with Iran we will end up coming to their rescue regardless of what they do or what Hillary says and that is sad! We should in fact take care of Jewish American's and American's and our interests in Israel and otherwise tell them in no uncertain terms they are on their own if they continue to instigate war not peace and expecting us to come to their rescue.\n\nThere is a US law that prohibits the support of countries that break the treaty in question. Vanunu's information led foreign experts to conclude that Israel had produced fissile material for as many as 200 atomic warheads thus warning other Nation's of Israel's military might. It was okay for Israel why the hypocrisy? Remember Mordechai Vanunu whistle blower of Israel's clandestine nuclear program? Uzi Eilam former head of Israel's Atomic Energy Commission said Mordechai Vanunu did Israel a favor after revealing information about an illegal nuclear program at Israel's Dimona reactor. His information proved that Israel had broken the 1968 treaty on nuclear disarmament and non-proliferation.\n\nThere is a US law that prohibits the support of countries that break the treaty in question. Vanunu's information led foreign experts to conclude that Israel had produced fissile material for as many as 200 atomic warheads thus warning other Nation's of Israel's military might. It was okay for Israel why the hypocrisy? Remember this discussion? The US will pay the price for Israel and US nuclear lies and hypocrisy after Israel attacks!\n\nI must admit Israel's hypocrisy and lies are a plan I have discussed often and I have to disagree with Eliam's final assertion. He says an attack on Iran's nuclear program would be counter productive. I beg to differ! The General hit the nail on the head though and does not know it. I have long asserted that Israel would attack Iran's nuclear interests and we would come to her rescue.\n\nThat is a fact that is why I find his final statement troubling and prophetic. He correctly said One strike is not practical. In order to delay the Iranian program for three to four years one needs an armada of aircraft, which only a super-power can provide. Only America can do it. Bingo! You know from numerous discussions here that Iran is involved in every Middle Eastern country not just Yemen, Iraq, and Saudi Arabia where they have corrupted elections for Shiite interests in Iraq, backing rebels in Yemen, and instigating attacks on Saudi oil fields. Bush freed Iran to instigate far and wide and they are.\n\nIsrael is not going to back down. When all is said and done they know the US will be there for them. It is time for Iran to put up or shut up! I am sure the US plans to come to Israel's rescue and do it largely from the Gulf with numerous carrier fighter groups and they are finished with their 30000 pound bunker buster behemoth to take out underground facilities. Both sides are locked and loaded and Syria is happening at the same time. That is no accident, all we can hope for at this time is to minimize these disasters as much as possible and keep them from turning into WW3."

"Make UK, the trade body for British manufacturers, said it was slashing its growth forecast for the sector in 2021 to 2.7% from 5.1% just three months ago – roughly half the rate of growth it sees for the broader economy.\n\n“Combined with the pandemic, many in industry are feeling like an exhausted boxer in the final round of a bout, with a ‘no deal’ exit from the EU potentially landing a knockout blow,” Make UK’s chief executive Stephen Phipson said.\n\nOfficial data last week showed that British factory output in October was 7.1% below its level a year earlier.\n\nBritish manufacturers will face tariffs on many of their exports to Europe from Jan. 1 without a trade deal, as well as regulatory hurdles.\n\nImports have already been disrupted due to high volumes of traffic at ports, linked to COVID and Brexit-related stockpiling, prompting carmaker Honda to suspend operations temporarily last week due to parts shortages.\n\nMake UK said its members expected output to stagnate or fall slightly over the coming quarter – better than the record drops seen in previous quarters due to the pandemic, but overall an anaemic picture.\n\n“It is going to be a long haul back, with talk of a ‘V’-shaped recovery nothing more than fanciful,” Phipson said."

"A different kind of soup is on\n\nDuring the winter I make homemade soup out of whatever's in the fridge.\n\nA different kind of soup is on",
null,
"There's something about soup.\n\nBack in the day, Mama's and Campbell's condensed cornered the market. Breathes there an American who doesn't associate \"Mm-mm good\" with soup?\n\nDuring the winter I still make homemade soup out of whatever's in the fridge — call it multi-media. But I also combine or add to canned soups. And, when serious cold sets in, I hanker for lunch at a noodle shop.\n\nCold-climate cities with a significant Asian population usually have several. They are simple storefronts no-frill tables and a bar with stools along the street-facing window. The menu board over the counter has separate lists for broth, meat/seafood, veggies and noodles. Items are numbered. Customers call out a combination of numbers — perhaps beef broth with thin-sliced barbecued pork, soba noodles, spinach broccoli, cilantro, scallions, bean sprouts. The server quickly ladles steaming ingredients into a bigger-than-a-soup bowl. Ratio of solids to broth, about 70-30. Cost: not much.\n\nI swoon thinking how good and warming on a bitter-cold day.\n\nSo why not make noodle bowls at home? You won't have this large a selection. But premium boxed or canned broths help.\n\nI spike mine with a dash of hot or soy sauce.\n\nAnother soup idea I've noticed on menus that, otherwise, would shrink from Campbell's and Kraft: A gourmet grilled cheese sandwich alongside tomato bisque, the purpose being dunking, like when you were 8.\n\nFor this, I might finely shred a small Yukon gold potato, chop half a small red bell pepper and simmer until soft. Add to canned tomato-basil or hearty tomato bisque. Top with a dot of sour cream and a fresh basil leaf. Bread for the sandwich must be interesting artisan, preferably thick-sliced. Choose a bold cheese or a combination of several. Smoked Cheddar — outstanding. Grill sandwiches in a lightly buttered skillet until quite brown; cut into quarters to facilitate dunking.\n\nThe final upgrade: Cooking with soup has made a comeback, big time. Cook your next pot roast in onion soup and red wine. Add a can of lentil soup to homemade chili. Use Progresso Vegetable Classics cream of mushroom — worlds better than condensed — to sauce spinach or broccoli. Roast plump chicken drumsticks in bean and bacon. With the addition of shrimp and tilapia chunks, carrots and peas, clam chowder becomes fish stew. Stir a Southwestern soup into half-cooked rice, bake until liquid is absorbed for a side dish with burritos.\n\nI know … sounds like a TV commercial. I dislike the commercials but am fascinated by what technology has wrought upon soup, even though my kitchen-sink kind will always be better."

"Yup, I'm trying to make this a regular thing again. I know you're very excited about that. Bit late this week as I wasn't around for the first two days of it, but there is still MUCH TO LEARN from the top-ten best-sellers on Steam last week.\n\nIt's a strong mix of independent and mega-gazillion blockbuster; though the overall shape of the chart isn't hugely surprising, the number one winnah perhaps is.\n\nThis is lovely to see. The indie, PC-only Harvest Moon-alike has had a right old rampage up the charts, proving that the mainstream PC game-player continues to be the least predictable of game-players. Perhaps, after being barraged with glossy shooters for several months (nix that - years) on the trot, there's a real appetite for tranquillity instead of destruction.\n\nBut the more things change, the more they stay the same. Ubisoft is deliriously happy with sales of its extremely online shooter and Destiny riposte, although I imagine there's been some handwringing that they're being outsold on PC by a farming simulator. We quite liked it, FYI.\n\nA good month for the French lot - the latest Far Cry continues to do well for itself, even if it's a worrying sign of the series falling into a holding pattern. I quickly grew tired of Primal , but it sure is pretty.",

"No, no, this is all wrong - you're only allowed to call things Gold Editions when you re-release a budget collection with all the expansion packs two years later. Ubisoft have bent the rules and called an all-in-one buy containing the season pass and some other DLC nuggets their Gold version.\n\nBethesda's grab-bag of add-on content for it's Quite Good But post-apocalyptic not-really-an-RPG-anymore is doing rather well for itself even though the price recently doubled. That happened as a result of the first chunk of DLC now being right around the corner.\n\nThis here's the marginally more expensive Apex Edition and its realistically slightly pointless weapon DLC. Shame we can't see what the chart looks like if all the Division and Primal packs are lumped together - I wouldn't be enormously surprised if the Division did topple Stardew if that were so.",

"I don't hear too many people talking about Lara's latest now, but it's hanging on in the charts - so clearly tons of people are quietly getting on with playing it by themselves without outwardly raving or ranting about it. This sort of tallies with my own experience of it: I enjoy the action and particularly the survival mode DLC, but the tale and characterisation leaves me too cold to have much to say about it.\n\nGood old Factorio, the management/construction game that anyone's going to have a hard time beating. Following in the footsteps of Banished and Big Pharma, it proves that there's a huge appetite for strategy that's far more about construction than combat. So far, Paradox with their Cities: Skylines is the only bigger firm to take advantage of that. These things are surely fiddly little bastards to develop though, so I doubt anyone's rushing into it willy-nilly.\n\nThis is pretty much only likely to fall out of the top ten during the week of a big Steam sale. Question is, will it remain a paid game or eventually join Team Fortress 2 and Dota 2 in the green and lucrative lands of free-to-play? Or does its ongoing refusal to do that signal that, even for Valve, the Old Ways are best after all?\n\nOur chart is top'n'tailed by leftishfield independent offerings. In a month when The Division is doing trad. shootybang writ as large as possible, it's great to see an alternative doing it writ as unusual as possible.\n\nDropped out: The Culling. Gone so soon?"

"Jon Brittenum was a former American Football League quarterback who played for the San Diego Chargers. He was a member of the Arkansas Razorbacks in college.\n\nJon Brittenum, who started as quarterback for the University of Arkansas’ dominant teams in 1965 and 1966, passed away on Thursday morning at the age of 78.\n\nBrittenum, a native of Brinkley, had been residing in south Texas for a number of years due to health issues.\n\nJon Brittenum was born in Brinkley, Arkansas on May 27, 1944 (age 78). He holds an American nationality and he belongs to the white ethnic group. His Zodiac sign is Gemini.\n\nJon Brittenum has prohibited the media from knowing specifics about his family, therefore there are no details available.\n\nJon Brittenum Wife, What about his children?\n\nIt appears that Jon Brittenum is a married guy with children. However, there is no information on his relationship or children available.\n\nJon Brittenum’s career, what is his profession?\n\nIn 1963, when he and Bill Gray shared time at quarterback, Brittenum earned a letter. He then redshirted in 1964, the year the team won the national championship and went on to start the next two seasons as a junior and senior. In both of those seasons, he received All-Southwest Conference recognition. For the 1965 squad, which won its first 10 games to extend the school’s winning streak to 22 games, Brittenum passed for 1,103 yards with 8 touchdowns and 7 interceptions.\n\nThe Razorbacks’ 27-24 victory over No. 1 Texas that season, which propelled them to the top of the Associated Press top 25, was credited to Brittenum for calling the plays. Due to No. 1 Michigan State’s loss to UCLA in the Rose Bowl, the Razorbacks entered the Cotton Bowl ranked No. 2 with a chance to win back-to-back championships. However, LSU defeated the Razorbacks 14-7 in Dallas despite Brittenum’s separated shoulder. He added 168 rushing yards to his 1,103 passing yards in 1966, helping the Razorbacks to an 8-2 record and eight consecutive appearances in the top 10 of the AP polls.\n\nBrittenum was chosen for the UA Sports Hall of Honor in 2020, but due to the COVID-19 pandemic, he was inducted into the 2021 class. In his autobiography, coach Frank Broyles stated that Brittenum was “the best passer on the move that I’ve ever seen.” On the sprint-out series, he could throw it like a rope that had frozen. For the system we used at the time, he was the ideal passer-runner. Brittenum was chosen for the 1960s UA All-Decade team. Despite going undrafted, he joined the Miami Dolphins practice squad in 1967. In 1968, he played for the San Diego Chargers for one season.\n\nHow much is Jon Brittenum Net Worth?\n\nOn Jon Brittenum’s parents, there is currently no information known.\n\nThere are no available details regarding Jon Brittenum’s educational background.\n\nUnfortunately, Jon Brittenum does not seem to be available on social media.\n\nInteresting facts about Jon Brittenum’s should be known"

"Demonstrators during the Right to a Livable Future rally, supporting the lawsuit brought by Kelsey Juliana v United States at the Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.Diego Diaz/Getty\n\nIn 2011, 15-year-old Kelsey Juliana and 11-year-old Ollie Chernaik filed a lawsuit on behalf of Oregon youth, charging then-Gov. John Kitzhaber and the state of Oregon with not doing enough to fight catastrophic climate change.\n\nA similar lawsuit is bound for a Washington state appeals court. Despite the two states’ liberal legislatures and governors who cast themselves as climate activists, the cases have been met with staunch resistance. That the young activists should face such tough sledding in the Pacific Northwest highlights the tension between the often slow-turning wheels of the democratic process and the urgency of climate action.\n\nAt the core of the youth climate lawsuits is the claim that elected officials have failed to protect the public interest of future generations from the worsening climate crisis as scientists predict and observe rising sea levels, stronger storms and prolonged droughts. Therefore, the young people’s lawyers argue, it’s the courts’ responsibility to demand that the state preserve a healthy climate for future generations by rapidly phasing out greenhouse gas emissions.\n\nIn response, Oregon and Washington have defended their actions on technical grounds—citing separation of powers and questioning the reach of the public trust doctrine—rather than denying the perils of climate change. And in the most recent cases, the courts have sided with the states. In the latest decision in Washington, for example, King County Superior Court Judge Michael Scott wrote “the issues involved in this case are quintessentially political questions that must be addressed by the legislative and executive branches of government.”\n\n“The issues involved in this case are quintessentially political questions that must be addressed by the legislative and executive branches of government.”\n\nAs the youth face setbacks in the courts, some observers think the cases are a distraction that isn’t moving the needle on climate action. Suing Oregon Gov. Kate Brown and Washington Gov. Jay Inslee, both supporters of climate legislation, “defies logic” said Aseem Prakash, the founding director of the University of Washington’s Center for Environmental Politics: “Inslee and Brown are doing everything politically feasible.” For example, Brown said she would look into using executive authority to direct state agencies to pursue climate action following the defeat, in June, of what was seen as the most comprehensive climate bill in the country. And after voters rejected a carbon tax initiative in Washington in 2018, Inslee helped shepherd a separate set of climate legislation through the state Legislature this year. In Prakash’s view, it doesn’t make sense to target allies who are constrained by limits on their executive power. “Inslee can’t unilaterally wave a hand and change the state’s climate plans,” he said.\n\nThough a wave of the hand might not do the trick, the young plaintiffs’ lawyers say that a pen stroke could. Either governor could choose to settle with the activists rather than argue against them in court, said Nate Bellinger, the state program manager for Our Children’s Trust, the nonprofit organizing climate lawsuits at the state, federal and international levels. “If you had a court-approved agreement, it would provide legal cover to take aggressive action on climate change,” Bellinger said. But he doesn’t see politicians willing to make that kind of end-run around legislatures that have at times been reluctant to pass significant carbon-limiting laws. “The impression we’re getting is (Brown and Inslee) don’t mind talking about climate change and taking incremental steps,” he said. “But they’re unwilling to take bold action.”\n\nWhen it comes to bold action, recent parallels at the federal level show how far executives can go to push ambitious agendas. President Donald Trump’s emergency declaration on building a U.S.-Mexico border wall has caused money to be re-appropriated and environmental laws waived while 30-foot-tall metal slats are erected in southern Arizona. This exercise of authority following the declaration of an immigration emergency has Democratic presidential candidates and lawyers considering the impacts of a future administration declaring a climate emergency. Several Democratic presidential candidates have already pledged to do so. Yet it remains unclear whether any of the candidates would direct their Justice Department to settle the federal youth climate case.\n\nAt the state level, politicians preaching climate action continue to fight the youth climate cases. After nearly a decade in court, the plaintiffs, now young adults, still see their case as a key that could unlock sweeping change, and they are getting frustrated. In a scathing opinion piece in The Oregonian earlier this year, Kelsey Juliana questioned whether Brown could be a leader on climate while opposing the youth climate lawsuit: “If Kate Brown is so concerned that ‘kids should not have to fight this hard to protect the planet they will inherit,’ ” she wrote, “why is she fighting us tooth and nail?”"

"Weekend Manager – Come out to crush the moody drama of M-Flow users or the barrier-free automatic passageway on the Intercity Motorway No. 9 (Bang Pa-in-Bang Phli Ring Road) in a timely manner for the action of Saksiam Chidchob, Minister of Transport that ordered the Department of Highways (TLS) to delay the fines 10 times and to expedite the return of the fines already paid Ready to rearrange the system, don’t be M-Flow that doesn’t flow\n\nIn fact, it is common for trials to operate with the new system to be as cumbersome at first as the expressways. “Easy Pass System” with a clearing problem Cut the money that does not match the customer’s service There is a lane switch to enter the Easy Pass, causing the car to be stuck for a long time, etc., having to follow the problem for a long time to get to the entrance.\n\nIn the case of the opening of the service of a fully automatic toll collection system without barriers (M-Flow) on the Intercity Expressway No. 9 (Bang Pa-in-Bang Phli Ring Road) with 4 checkpoints, namely Thanyaburi 1 Toll Plaza, Thanyaburi 2 Toll Plaza, Thap Chang Toll Plaza 1 and Thap Chang 2 checkpoint, which started on February 15, 2022, also have the same problem.\n\nThe difference is that the fine is ten times that of the Department of Highways. Charged in the event that users who are not members of M-Flow do not pay for the service on time, it must be said that it’s like a robbery in the sun. Plus, the bank’s clearing system that cuts service fees has problems with being charged again. Not counting the alternation of lanes of the car entering the M-Flow lane, causing heavy traffic jams, etc.\n\nThese problems are all things that have happened before with the EasyPass system. But instead of the Department of Highways to collect lessons and apply them and deal with the situation in a timely manner. back clumsy, let the problem escalate until a curse sounded throughout the city. Trouble to the Ministry of Transport Must come out to defeat Rama who pretends to go big\n\nMr. Sak Siam came out to face the society on February 24 that Acknowledgment of the problem of impacts that occur to people who have to pay a fine of 10 times in case of paying tolls more than 2 days using the M-FLOW system channel for people who do not subscribe to the M-Flow system by Has ordered to the Department of Highways (TLS) to delay the collection of fines 10 times for those who do not apply for membership in the M-FLOW system and have access to the M-FLOW system in a period of 1 week. past and to refrain from fines of 10 times until March 31, 2022 in order to understand and allow motorists to adjust\n\nM-Flow service system that does not flow has been a problem since the day of service and has continued. The peak is where artists in the entertainment industry come out to criticize. especially the issue of severe fines, whether “Louis Scott”, “Aom Skawjai Poonsawat” and “Got Jirayu Tantrakul”\n\nOn February 23, 2022, “Louis Scott” posted via IG “IG louisscott” telling about his experience with M-Flow service. “I am one of the people who use M-Flow service. I am not a member so I decided to choose. How to run first, then pay In summary, it’s not worth it. Because I have to pay toll fees and fines twice because the AI system doesn’t clear the balance for me and I’m afraid of being hit (criminal cases) #need to pay I have used the service six times = 780 + gas fee #fainting If anyone has information here, please write it down #great”\n\nOn the side of “Young Gott – Jirayu” came out to update this story through the picture with the message that “It’s been designed smartly. Even trying to pretend it was a technical mistake Of course, what he will do next is to put the blame on the people who did not receive the message. why not study well so study well so as not to be a victim of this kind of building project.”\n\nAs for “Aom-Sakaojai”, update the picture to criticize this issue. with the message that “Extremely scratchy… The bucket is broken? I hear!!! I SUSssss!!! #BooSat#mflow”, where people like and criticize until it has become a hot trend.\n\nIn the case of the bank’s clearing system that has problems The Department of Highways has informed via LINE @ M-Flow that during 21.00 on February 21, 2022 to 12:00 noon on February 22, 2022, there was a problem in improving the receiving system. pay As a result, the payment situation is still pending. Krung Thai Bank is urgently solving the problem. After completing the process, there will be no outstanding debts in the system. In the case of recurring payments The bank will refund the money according to the method specified by the payment user. If still found that there is inaccurate information, you can report the matter to www.mflowthai.com or Application iOS / android mflowthai to enter the dispute process. in order for the staff to help fix it\n\nMr. Sarawut Songsiwilai Director-General of the Department of Highways (TLS) explains the advantages of the M-Flow system that it is designed to support the speed while the car can pass through 1 20 km / h, which is the same speed as specified in the motorway route. The advantage is that the car that passes does not have to slow down when passing the checkpoint. The M-Flow channel can support 2,500 cars/hr / 1 slot, so the number of 4 slots can support 10,000 cars/hr. causing no problems with traffic jams During the rush hour on Motorway Route 9, the traffic volume is approximately 12,000 cars/hour.\n\nAnother advantage is It is used before paying later. which after payment There are several payment methods. Both pay per use, pay at the end of the bill, pay via credit and debit cards, pay via counter service, through various e-banking, while the original payment system will be in cash or via M-PASS card or EASY PASS. Must have money before accessing the way, either in cash or with money in the card M-PASS or EASY PASS.\n\nFor non-M-Flow members, the Department of Highways allows them to run through M-Flow by payment. to check at www.mflowthai.com Select Menu : Search for Payment : https://mflowthai.com/mflow/unuserpayment You can also pay through counter service, 7-Eleven stores that are open 24 hours a day and have more than 13,000 branches across the country as well.\n\nIn the case of avoiding payment of toll fees within 2 days, there will be a fine of 1 time, for example, toll fees on motorway 9 for 4 wheels, amounting to 30 baht, will be fined 300 baht, plus a 30 baht overdue toll, which is the amount that Must pay a total of 330 baht, and in case of non-payment within 12 days, there will be an additional fine of 200 baht. If not a member Failure to pay within 12 days will be subject to a fine of up to 5,530 baht.\n\nAlthough the purpose of designing the M-Flow system to facilitate road users, how good would it be? But starting to actually use it has various problems. The Department of Highways must place cones to organize traffic systems near the new entrance lanes. which since the opening of the service until now People are still confused about accessing M-Flow and traditional fee payment methods. In particular, M-PASS and EASY PASS card users complain that the traffic is very heavy. because the lane was merged with general cars and ten-wheel trucks In addition, the communication signs are confusing and unclear. causing serious traffic jams in front of the checkpoint Not to mention that there are still a number of cars running through the M-Flow channel without being subscribed. Which is partly caused by changing lanes back and forth, causing them to be implicitly squeezed into the M-Flow channel.\n\nProblems with the Department of Highways’ M-Flow system cause Mr. Surachet Laopoolsuk The Governor of the Expressway Authority of Thailand (EXAT) has instructed officers to collect problems arising after the Office of the Metropolitan Water Authority of Thailand opened the M-Flow system on Motorway Route 9, a total of 4 checkpoints, in full. to be used as a lesson for EXAT to improve and close various weaknesses before EXAT will open the M-Flow service in phase 1 around May 2022 piloted on the Chalong Rat Expressway at 3 checkpoints, consisting of Chatuchot Toll Plaza, Sukhaphiban 5-1 Toll Plaza and Sukhaphiban 5 Toll Plaza. 2\n\nFor the introductory lesson at CAAT took off from the user’s echoes, found that registering for the M-Flow service was quite difficult. Inadequate public relations, resulting in a lack of awareness, therefore, EXAT has to speed up to create more awareness because the expressway has quite a lot of service users. Agree that the changes in the early stages will cause problems. Before EXAT opens the service, M-Flow will launch a virtual test system around March – April 2022 in order to avoid problems when actually using the service. Channels for payment via EasyPass card and cash will be launched in parallel with M-Flow first.\n\nAt present, there are approximately 1.9 million expressway users per day, of which approximately 800,000 people use EasyPass per day, out of a total of approximately 2 million EasyPass cardholders. Easy Pass card users Register for M-Flow membership to use the M-Flow system on motorway number 9.\n\nIn addition, EXAT is still in the process of adjusting the system to integrate information that will allow Easy Pass card users. You can subscribe to M-Flow without re-registration. No hassle, just a few clicks. EXAT will use the original information and documents of existing EasyPass users as much as possible to make it simple and convenient.\n\nIt’s best to clean any non-flowing M-Flow images before activating the service."

"Hey Girl Gang! Only 2 more Force Fridays after this until The Force Awakens is released!\n\nToday we are going to discuss racial representation in The Force Awakens and beyond.\n\nPopular media influences society in many ways. The most important way might be how it defines societal standards. The images that are pervasive in our popular media are what become our society’s “normal”. We see the same kinds of images so often that we consider them the norm without realizing it. This is often discussed when people speak out against the media’s beauty standards, which is commonly seen on social media. What is discussed less frequently is the way that popular media promotes and maintains white supremacy. White people have dominated television and film for such a long period of time that they have falsely become the standard. People don’t even notice when they see an all-white cast, yet they always notice- and even protest- when seeing people of color on their screens. People are so used to white supremacy of the media that they consider any person of color on their screens ‘abnormal’.\n\nThis is an appropriate topic for today after last night’s broadcast of The Wiz. There was racist backlash to the all-black cast on Twitter, which was quickly responded to by many who pointed out that the original movie The Wizard of Oz featured an all-white cast. (Not to mention, you know, the complete whiteness of almost EVERY MOVIE EVER MADE UP TO MODERN DAY.)\n\nThat same kind of racist backlash occurred over the first The Force Awakens trailer. (Warning: eye-rolls and loss of faith in humanity ahead.)\n\nA hashtag was created in protest of the movie, just because there weren’t enough white people. I’m not even kidding. Some people tried to pretend their blatant racism was logical by saying that Stormtroopers are clones of a white guy. Hopefully I don’t have to explain why this is so stupid. Star Wars is fiction and only racist dudes will accept a freaking sword made out of laser as totally okay but then insist that a black person is ‘unrealistic’ in a FICTION WORLD. Also, for all you non-Star Wars people, it has been canonically confirmed that Stormtroopers are NOT clones, so they can be female and/or people of color.\n\nActor John Boyega’s reaction to the backlash couldn’t have been more perfect. He simply said, “I’m in the movie, what are you going to do about it? You either enjoy it or you don’t. I’m not saying get used to the future, but what is already happening. People of color and women are increasingly being shown on-screen. For things to be whitewashed just doesn’t make sense.”\n\nAnd he’s totally right. Which brings us back to my main point: representation is important. The main three characters of The Force Awakens – Finn, Poe, and Rey – are black, Guatemalan-American, and female respectively. This is really progressive for both Hollywood and for the Star Wars franchise. It is important that Star Wars didn’t fall back on their typical white male lead prototype for their protagonists. People of color will see themselves represented in the biggest motion picture event of the year.",
null,
"I talk a lot about why female representation is important in comics and movies, but when it comes down to it, I’m a white person. I see myself in comics and film constantly. Even if I don’t like how the white woman is represented, I still see her there all the time. People of color rarely see themselves at all.\n\nAlthough we have two men of color as leads, as usual women of color aren’t truly represented – Lupita Nyong’o is in the film, but only her voice and some of her face through motion capture animation. She plays an alien.\n\nStill, as I often talk about, we need to celebrate progress when we see it, even if it isn’t as progressive as it needs to be. The merchandise of The Force Awakens has Finn and Poe front and center. A young black boy who adores Star Wars but has seen almost all white people in the films can own a Finn action figure who looks like him. A Guatemalan-American boy can see himself on the screen and be Poe next Halloween. They will see themselves represented on the screen. They will not see yet another white male lead as ‘normal’.\n\nRepresentation is so important. The biggest film franchise in the world has three minorities as its leads. And let’s be real: The Force Awakens will inevitably make an unbelievable amount of money. Other film studios will see this and maybe stop believing the bullshit about women and people of color not seeing movies. We need to change our definition of the white male as the norm on which all else is based. Every child should see themselves as normal."

"So here I am again on the annual Glenmore Cricket Club tour of Vancouver and Victoria.\n\nSneaking along a delicious bottle of unique whisky adds a touch of the civilized to the mostly rudimentary fun of beer, cricket, darts more beer and really good mates.\n\nThis time around the hotel in question is right in the heart of English Bay in Vancouver and I got to use a glass tumbler instead of last years plastic cup. Way to step it up!!\n\nThe whisky of choice that I grabbed out of my basement before jumping into the car with 3 other guys and heading off on this years cricketing adventure is a 16 year old Craigellachie from A.D. Rattray.",

"Bottled at the cask strength of 54.7% in a first fill ex-bourbon barrel, there were only 320 bottles available of which a mere 60 came to Canada. This whisky was distilled in 1989 on the 9th of October and bottled in 2006 on the 10th of August, the second year that A.D. Rattray whiskies were available in Alberta. Cask number 3881 and 16 Years Old.\n\nIt was apt that this particular whisky was chosen as my last day on tour was spent at the 3 Valley Gap resort a short distance away from Craigellachie, British Columbia. made famous by the driving of the last spike in the Trans Canada Railway. It was named after the president of CPR Sir George Stephen who traveled to Britain to source desperately needed funds. After success Sir Stephen telegraphed a message back “stand fast Craigellachie”.\n\nThe CPR heritage train food and beverage manager has at times thought about an exclusive cask of Craigellachie and one day there may well be a CPR bottling. Something to look out for if you are a history buff or just love trains and the gorgeous Rocky Mountains.\n\nSo onto the whisky tasted in a Best Western Sands rock glass while overlooking English Bay.\n\nColour: Burnished gold\nNose: Plenty of oomph there even in a big open tumbler, waxy spring blossom honeycomb.\nPalate: Far more savory on the palate with herbaceous notes of fresh soft hay bail tinged with an undercurrent of sourdough garlic bread fresh out of the oven. Really interesting whisky and quite different to other Craigellachie casks that I have tried.\nFinish: Long and even more savory leaving a lingering whiff of garlic which is really cool. Vampires beware of this dram. Through it all the sweet little slab of honeycomb weaves its way adding a great layer of complexity.\n\nIf you can find this dram I would suggest nabbing one. Try Chateau Louis in Edmonton who have a remarkable library of A.D. Rattray bottlings.\n\nJust when I thought I had a handle on whisky I get this little beaut that expands my mind yet again.\n\nA fabulous dram to take on tour and one that some of the cricket club boys readily agreed was worth bringing.\n\nUntil next year when I pop another cork on the cricket road trip have fun drinking great whisky under any circumstances.",

"God commands us to be faithful because He values faithfulness.\n\nGOD COMMANDS US TO BE FAITHFUL BECAUSE HE VALUES FAITHFULNESS.\n\nVerse of the Day: “Many will say they are loyal friends, but who can find one who is really faithful?” (Proverbs 20:6).\n\n“Man, he makes me so mad!” Corey glared at his former friend, who walked away from the restaurant counter where he worked.\n\n“What’s up with you?” Ken asked. Ken was a year older than Corey, but they’d become good friends since Corey had started working at Mama Mia’s Pizza.\n\nCorey nodded in the direction of his former friend. “It’s him. He and I used to be friends.”\n\n“Yeah,” Corey answered sulkily. He thought for a moment. “It’s like, he’s your friend when you’ve got something he wants, but if you ever really need him, he’s got something better to do.”\n\nKen nodded. “I think I know what you mean.”\n\n“I mean, we used to do all kinds of things together, but once, when Mr. Jacobs, the history teacher, told us after a big test that our answers had been almost identical, he said, ‘Well, Mr. Jacobs, I thought Corey was looking at my paper an awful lot, but I couldn’t very well turn him in, could I? After all, he’s my friend!’”\n\n“You copied off his test paper?” Ken asked.\n\n“No!” Corey answered angrily. “He copied off of mine!”\n\n“So he betrayed you,” Ken said.\n\nCorey blew a short burst of air out of his mouth. “You got that right!”\n\n“And you think faithfulness, or loyalty, or whatever you call it, is pretty important.”\n\nKen nodded. “Sure,” he said. “But it doesn’t really matter so much what I think. What matters is what God thinks. He commands us to be faithful, because he values faithfulness. That’s why most of us know that faithfulness is a good thing, an important thing—because it’s a godly value.”\n\nCorey shook his head and smiled. “You sure do talk a lot about God.” Ken smiled. “Does it bother you?” “No,” Corey said. He smiled back. “I kind of like it.”\n\nTO DISCUSS: What does loyalty mean to you? To whom are you loyal? From whom do you expect loyalty? How do you feel when someone you trust isn’t loyal to you?\n\nTO PRAY: Take turns praying something like, “God, please help me to value faithfulness. Teach me to be faithful to all my friends.”"

"Tube anemone has the largest animal mitochondrial genome ever sequenced",
null,
"Discovery by Brazilian and US researchers could change the classification of two species, which appear more akin to jellyfish than was thought. Credit: Sérgio Stampar\n\nTube anemones (Ceriantharia) are the focus of an article recently published in Scientific Reports describing the findings of a study led by Sérgio Nascimento Stampar (https://bv.fapesp.br/en/pesquisador/171695/sergio-nascimento-stampar/), a professor in São Paulo State University's School of Sciences and Letters (FCL-UNESP) at Assis in Brazil.\n\nThe study was supported by FAPESP via a regular grant for the project “Evolution and diversity of Ceriantharia (Cnidaria” and via its program São Paulo Researchers in International Collaboration (SPRINT) under a cooperation agreement with the University of North Carolina (UNC) at Charlotte in the US.\n\nThe mitogenome is simpler than the nuclear genome, which in the case of I. nocturnus has not yet been sequenced, Stampar explained. The human nuclear genome comprises some 3 billion base pairs, for example.\n\nAnother discovery reported in the article is that I. nocturnus and Pachycerianthus magnus (another species studied by Stampar's group, 77,828 base pairs) have linear genomes like those of medusae (Medusozoa), whereas other species in their class (Anthozoa) and indeed most animals have circular genomes.\n\nI. nocturnus is found in the Atlantic from the coast of Patagonia in Argentina as far north as the East Coast of the US. P. magnuslives in the marine environment around the island of Taiwan in Asia. Both inhabit waters at most 15 m deep.\n\n“I. nocturnus's mitogenome is almost five times the size of the human mitogenome,” Stampar said. “We tend to think we're molecularly more complex, but actually our genome has been more 'filtered' during our evolution. Keeping this giant genome is probably more costly in terms of energy expenditure.”\n\nThe shape of the mitogenomes in these two species of tube anemone and the gene sequences they contain were more surprising than their size.\n\nBecause they are closely related species, their gene sequences should be similar, but I. nocturnus has five chromosomes while P. magnus has eight, and each has a different composition in terms of genes. This kind of variation had previously been found only in medusozoans, sponges, and some crustaceans.\n\n“Humans and bony fish species are more similar than these two tube anemones in terms of the structure of their mitochondrial DNA,” Stampar said.\n\nTo arrive at these results, the researchers captured specimens in São Sebastião, which lies on the coast of São Paulo State in Brazil, and off Taiwan in the South China Sea. Small pieces of the animals' tentacles were used to sequence their mitogenomes.\n\nThe genomes of the two species hitherto available from databases were incomplete owing to the difficulty of sequencing them. After completing the study, the researchers published the genomes by gifting them to GenBan, a database maintained in the US by the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) at the National Institutes of Health (NIH).\n\nAnother obstacle to sequencing was the difficulty of collecting these animals because of their elusive behavior. In response to any potential threat, a tube anemone hides in the long leathery tube that distinguishes it from true sea anemones, making capture impossible.\n\n“You have to dig a hole around it, sometimes as deep as a meter, and stop up the part of the tube buried in sand. All this must be done under water while carrying diving gear. Otherwise, it hides in the buried part of the tube and you simply can't get hold of it,” Stampar said.\n\nThanks to the support of FAPESP's SPRINT program, Stampar and Marymegan Daly, a research colleague at Ohio State University in the US, established a partnership with Adam Reitzel and Jason Macrander at UNC Charlotte. Macrander, then a postdoctoral researcher under Reitzel, is a professor at Florida Southern College.\n\nReitzel and Macrander specialize in the use of bioinformatics to filter genomics data and assemble millions of small pieces of mitochondrial DNA into a single sequence. They used this technique to arrive at complete mitochondrial genomes for both species.\n\n“In this technique, you sequence bits of the genome and link them in a circle. The problem is that this only works with circular genomes. Because we couldn't find a piece to close the circle, we realized the genome had to be linear, as it is for Medusozoa,” Stampar said.\n\nHowever, more data will be needed before a definitive conclusion can be reached. The necessary data could come from the sequencing of these species' nuclear genomes, which Stampar and his group intend to complete by the end of 2019."

"President Rodrigo Duterte has apologized and ordered an investigation following the rocky start to the Philippines’ hosting of this year’s Southeast Asian Games.\n\nAcknowledging the “discomfort” and “suffering of the athletes,” the president apologized for the mishaps that have unfolded leading up to the games kicking off this weekend.\n\n“I’m really apologizing for the country. They (foreign athletes) have to know that the government is not happy with it and the president of the country where they are playing ordered an investigation,” he said in an exclusive interview with CNN Philippines on Thursday, November 28.\n\nThe Philippines has drawn flak and made international headlines for the blunders, such as unfinished venues, inadequate food supply, transportation woes, and accommodation issues.\n\nDuterte was reportedly angry over the logistical troubles that have been plaguing the regional sporting event and called for a probe. However, he appeared calm on Thursday as he urged the public to refrain from creating a “firestorm” over the event.\n\n“I said let us investigate. Do not create a firestorm now because we are in the thick of preparations,” he told reporters at Malacañang.\n\n“To me personally there was a lot of money poured into this activity,” he added. “Now I suppose that with that kind of money you can run things smoothly. Apparently, maybe something went wrong.”\n\nThe Palace has also lamented that the Philippine SEA Games Organization Committee (PHISGOC) — the private entity in charge of organizing and hosting this year’s SEA Games — should perform better services expected of them, acknowledging the mishaps pointed out by critics.\n\n“An array of criticisms has been made on how PHISGOC has handled the logistics of this momentous event, and these should be accepted and considered in order to rectify the errors it has committed,” presidential spokesperson Salvador Panelo said.\n\n“The critics have a point. There is indeed something wrong with the preparations,” he added.\n\nPHISGOC and its chairman, House Speaker Alan Peter Cayetano, have come under fire for how the event is unfolding.\n\nCayetano on Thursday has also called on the Commission on Audit (COA) to conduct an audit on how public funds were being used for the SEA Games.\n\nDuterte, however, said he does not believe Cayetano is involved in any of the corruption accusations relating to funds for the SEA Games.\n\n“Yes, he (Cayetano) has to answer but I do not think corruption. I am sure Cayetano is not involved in corruption pero ‘yung ibang binigyan ng task, ‘yung POC (Philippine Olympic Committee) pati yung kay Bambol Tolentino (but those given tasks, like the POC and the one led by Bambol Tolentino),” the president said.\n\n“I am not investigating Cayetano under it, I am just trying to find out. I think the money must have not been properly disbursed. I know Cayetano cannot handle everything, he has to delegate,” he added.\n\nTo further fan flames, Cayetano on Friday said the president ordered that 10,000 tickets for the majority of the 56 sports events and the closing ceremony be free for the public.",

"Belfry had easily scored touchdowns on their first two drives and the Pirates’ defense had just held on 4th down. Belfry seemed to be in control, leading 14-6, having stopped the Panthers twice already, and blocked their first extra point. It could be easy for doubt to creep in.\n\nYes, the Panthers did win last year but the Pirate’s start running back Isaac Dixon had missed that game due to injury. Plus, Pikeville only returned five starters and they hadn’t beaten Belfry twice in a row since 2000. Tonight, Belfry had already put up two plays over 60 yards, including a completed 68-yard touchdown PASS tonight, and the Pirates never pass. So, the Panthers defense desperately needed something, anything.\n\nThe spark came on the very next play after the turnover on downs, though, and his name is Blake Birchfield. Junior Josh Taylor stripped Belfry running back Isaac Dixon and Birchfield, a sophomore, scooped it up and ran it in for a 21-yard Pikeville TD. Junior Isaac Coleman ran in the 2-point conversion to tie the game at 14 with 5:15 remaining in the half.\n\n“It was awesome, it just popped right into my arms,” Birchfield told KSR.\n\nPikeville is right back in it after ?@Blakebirchfiels? scoop and score. pic.twitter.com/e3rqM4Mpjr\n\nBirchfield saw to that.\n\nHe was just getting started.\n\nBelfry won the toss and deferred. Pikeville moved the ball to midfield but had to punt. Belfry junior RB Brayden Rash took a toss and scampered 61 yards up the left sideline to set up an 8-yard Dixon TD run with 6:19 left in the first quarter.\n\nPikeville responded with a TD drive of their own. Junior QB Isaac McNamee hooked up with sophomore Jeb Wilkerson for gains of 18 and 32 yards and Birchfield punched it in for a 2-yard TD run. Belfry blocked the extra point to preserve their 7-6 lead.\n\nBelfry responded with a 68-yard pass (yes, a pass) from Brett Coleman, a Miami (OH) DB commit, to a wide-open Dixon for a TD. The pass was a little underthrown, but Dixon hauled it in and made a man miss at the goal line for a 14-6 Pirate lead.\n\nPikeville drove to the Belfry 19 but failed to convert on a 4th-and-10 fade. The next play is when Taylor caused the fumbled and Birchfield scooped it up for the 21-yard defensive score. The Pikeville 2-point conversion tied it at 14.\n\nBelfry drove to the Pikeville 28, but the Panther defense held thanks to some key defensive plays by junior Landon Hammock. Pikeville took over and let the clock run down to go to the locker room tied at the half.\n\nBelfry took the 2nd half kickoff and burned nearly 7 minutes of clock, but a holding penalty near the red zone led an incomplete pass on 4th and long. This was one of several incomplete passes for the Pirates, a team that rarely goes to the air.\n\nPikeville took over on their own 26 and methodically marched to the red zone. McNamee had a key run up the middle to set up 1st and goal at the 5 and then hooked up with junior Zac Lockhart for a 5-yard score with 10:21 left. The extra point was no good. The drive took 7 minutes. Lockhart took a big hit on the play but managed to hold on to the ball. Belfry was called for a personal foul for the hit on Lockhart.\n\n“That one kind of hurt. I’m not going to lie. I was just rolling out. I knew Isaac was going to see me. He’s a great quarterback,” Lockhart told KSR.\n\n“We called a boot. It was designed for me to run but Zac was wide open. I found him and he held on for a great catch and took a really big lick,” McNamee said.\n\nBelfry drove down the field on their second (and last) drive of the half. They got down near the red zone but Birchfield made a great shoestring tackle on Dixon’s 4th down run.\n\n“Shew. Dixon. I didn’t expect it. I missed one (tackle) earlier down the field. So that one finally gave me a chance and I got it back,” Birchfield said.\n\nShoestring tackle on Isaac Dixon on 4th and 4 play by ?@Blakebirchfiels? pic.twitter.com/tZAhRgARPH\n\nPikeville took over and salted the final 3:30 away with a couple of Birchfield first down runs to preserve the 20-14 victory. Each team only had the ball twice the whole second half. Belfry turned the ball over on downs on their final 3 possessions and fumbled on the drive before that.\n\n“It’s just a pride thing. We are about pride around here. If you win this game, you get to wear it on your chest for the entire season. Everybody loves this game. It’s very competitive. Belfry is always great,” Isaac McNamee said.\n\nBirchfield gets my game MVP vote. The super sophomore ran for lots of yards, including a TD, and made the biggest defensive plays of the game. Pikeville coach Chris McNamee had high price for Birchfield.\n\n“He (Birchfield) is a special back. Just a sophomore. Didn’t get a lot of time last year with all the seniors we had, but he’s been in the weight room and worked extremely hard. He’s just a heck of a football player. Played offense and defense and never came out all night. He did a great job for us,” said Chris McNamee.\n\n“This means a ton. Especially getting interviewed by KSR. I wear my KSR shirt to school about every other day. I was nervous because KSR was here,” Birchfield said.\n\n“I was tired but Coach Sullivan, our defensive coordinator, tells me every practice ‘We need you’. If you are not ready, go out, but if you are on the field give it all,” Birchfield said about playing on both sides of the ball all night.\n\nThe Panthers are the favorite to win their 2nd straight class A state title and 6th overall. They only have five seniors, so the future is bright in Pikeville.\n\nThe Pirates are also the favorite to repeat (they play in 3A) but will need to get some more help in the backfield for Dixon. The senior averages 13.3 yards per carry for his career. They are going for their 8th state title. Senior Seth Mounts, Belfry’s leading tackler in Week 1, missed the contest with an injury. His recovery will be crucial for the Pirates chances of repeating.\n\nCheck out @teeroyhowell on Twitter to see all the post-game interviews."

"A: This riff is in the phrygian mode which is known for its exoticism and oriental quality and this creates the supernatural intrigue of this song while allowing the band to use a dissonant minor second to create tension.\n\nB: The tonal center is shifted up a minor third, a fourth then a minor second before the tritone resolves on a fifth. The shift creates a demented effect while the melody moves towards instability and then resolves on a simple power chord shape that consonance and clarity to the chaos.\n\nC: This melody adds tension with its smooth tremolo picking ending on two strummed power chords and on the second tail with a single note. It descends smoothly on an intriguing minor seventh that then explodes on to a major third which adds intrigue as a “happy” sounding interval sounds completely disjointed and the second variation ends on a minor third which pushes the chaos into sanity while maintaining the viciousness of this melody.\n\nD: Here there is an octave jump on both guitars in order to completely grab attention in an otherworldly movement. A progression consisting of a minor third, a second, minor third before a tritone jump against the minor third that resolves on a fourth. The second part shifts to a minor second center and then plays the major third and minor third as all this composition’s ideas lead to this point. The venom of this piece is toned down as a spiritual evil manifests into physical form blurring the line between the two. This kind of idea would become a staple of bands like Dismember and then form the basis for a lot of the second wave of Black metal.\n\nE: In many ways a continuation of D which is characterized by tremolo picking punctuated by powers chords. The progression is the root note punctuated by a fourth, minor second second punctuated by a fifth, tritone punctuated by a second. The melody starts in a very stable and neutral environment before going from dissonant to consonant before ending on a somber tone. An ambiguous beginning introduces the charge that briefly finds stability as if the forces of evil were waning but then tricks expectations by ending on a lamenting note.\n\nD is the crux of this piece and represents the summit of each these cycles barring the last one.\n\nA introduces the relationship between B and C which is the anchor of the piece and in a Speed metal context would represent the long verse that would lead to the chorus but here the band opt to distort that idea and decide to lead towards D which serves as a recurring melody rather than a full chorus.\n\nE being a longer melody that recapitulates many of the ideas from D and pushes them towards creating tension before exploding back to D again and ending the cycle.\n\nAll the ideas have now been introduced and exploited in pairs consisting of B-C and D-E. The band change the relationships and decide to pair E-C and C-D. This creates progress in the narrative as the riffs are all built from the same ideas and the piece shows traits of more mature Death metal as it effectively weaves this harrowing tale while building tension towards D through the E –> C –> B –> C passage that makes the final D –> E –> D section feel like a true climax.\n\nAfter the final high this piece returns to the now familiar C that is now played without B as it provides closure before reintroducing A as an outro in the circular manner that was still prevalent with underground acts of the time and slows down the song to signal a dark twisted finality on the final chromatic pattern."

"Aamir Khan is one of India’s most versatile film actors. Though he is loved by the masses, Aamir has also made a mark in being the “thinking man’s” favourite. “Mr. Perfectionist” is one of the many titles he holds as an artiste who approaches his art with a lot of diligence and detail. Coming from a family associated with the film, Mr. Khan soon stood on his own feet and achieved to create his very own legacy. Having started off as the chocolaty lover boy, Aamir Khan had covered a wide range of characters across many genres of cinema through his movies. On the 55th birthday of Aamir Khan, here is a list of his most famous movies that have won the hearts of millions across the world.\n\nMust watch movies of Aamir Khan:\n\nThis was not his first film as many believe. In fact, it was his third to face the camera. A typical Romeo-Juliet type saga, Aamir played the charming boy-next-door who romances the daughter of his family’s nemesis. His cousin, Mansoor Khan, made a debut as a director with this musical super-hit. Almost overnight, Aamir Khan became the new poster heartthrob for many girls who wanted a “Raj” in their lives.\n\nMansoor Khan’s second musical super-hit. Aamir played the bratty, yet good-hearted, the younger brother in this college-town based entertainer. Soon, he works hard at proving his grit by winning the local inter-college cycling championship and in the process the hearts of his family and friends. Yet again, Aamir scored in the hearts of millions and delivered one of the biggest blockbusters of that year.\n\nIt is a lesser-known fact that Aamir Khan has always loved children based films. This was a reason for Aamir to don on the role of a screenwriter, along with Robin Bhatt, in this family comedy directed by Mahesh Bhatt. A complete family entertainer, it touched lightly on the topic of familial responsibility and the fact that hard work is the main key to happiness.\n\nOne of the more memorable Aamir Khan movies, which is also the only one to have paired the two reigning Khans – Aamir and Salman. Regarded as one of the eternal comedies from the Indian film factory, this comedy of errors created box office waves during that year. Aamir Khan displayed his flair for comic timing, and expression, throughout this rib-tickling movie.\n\nThis brought together Aamir Khan, Ram Gopal Varma, and AR Rehman; each reigning in their respective streams during that era. Aamir brought forth the lovable tapori, Munna, in this musical extravaganza. Preparing for this role, Aamir Khan spent some time with youngsters from the Mumbai slums. He wanted to work on his diction, dialogue delivery, and body language to portray Munna… and the effort was certainly worth it!\n\nAamir’s second memorable tapori role. An amateur boxer, street thug and young lover can be used to describe his character, Siddharth “Siddhu” Marathe. The movie is the saga the hero goes through while being torn between right and wrong. This was also a debut of sorts, for the perfectionist, as a playback singer. And certainly, “Aati Kya Khandala” is very much ingrained in everyone’s mind even today.\n\nAamir Khan plays an honest, hard-hitting and very determined Indian police officer who’s on a quest to stop cross border terrorism. Driven by his past tragedy, present duty, and a supportive family, his character goes beyond the call of duty to accomplish his mission. Interlaced with this racy thriller is a wonderful love story supported by the passion for ghazals.\n\nThe maiden project of Aamir Khan Productions, this movie was written and directed by Ashutosh Gowariker. Aamir donned the roles of the producer as well as the main lead. His lovable character, Bhuvan, has been etched in people’s memories to date. The periodic drama consisted of an excellent script, a grand cast, and AR Rehman’s tremendous musical soundtrack and background score. Technically, this was the first time that an entire Indian film was shot using synchronised sound using a sync-sound recording. Lagaan also has the record for casting the biggest number of British actors in a single Indian movie. As a producer, Aamir Khan held no bars in terms of production, location, cast, crew, music, shoot arrangements, post-production and certainly promotion. The director, and Aamir, spent a lot of time abroad to promote the film. It was even released in China for the first time to an outstanding response.\n\nPost-release, a high scale earthquake had almost destroyed the villages where Lagaan was shot. Aamir donated a significant amount of his earnings to provide relief and rehabilitation to the Bhuj area. This epic won a number of awards, nationally and internationally, and was showcased at many foreign film festivals. Lagaan was also nominated for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film. This was the third Indian entry after Mother India (1957) and Salaam Bombay! (1988). Though Lagaan did not get the Oscar, it certainly received numerous accolades from the foreign, and national, fraternity. Aamir Khan definitely had hit a century of sorts with his first home production.\n\nIn contrast to a periodic film, this was an upbeat modern story on the coming of age of three friends. Set in a modern urban setting, covering India and Australia, the movie essayed the story of friendship, love, and relationships. Aamir Khan played the lead role to the hilt in Farhan Akhtar’s directorial debut. The movie is considered as a trendsetter in a saga of urban romantic comedies that have followed since.\n\nNo special list of Aamir Khan movies can be complete without Rang De Basanti, can it? The actor plays a senior university student in this modern-day saga intertwined with portions of India’s Independence struggle. It is the story of a group of friends who change their perspectives, on life and their surroundings, as they work on a docu-film on five revolutionary Indian freedom fighters. This change in thinking leads them to murder the Indian Defence Minister as he is guilty of corruption. This cult film created a national furore, especially amongst the youth, and generated vocal anti-establishment opinions across the country. Aamir brought to life his care-free, loving and mischievous character who turns into a highly determined rebel of sorts.\n\nTaking a special place on our list of must-watch Aamir Khan movies is Taare Zameen Par. This was the maestro’s directorial debut, apart from being the producer and one of the supporting characters. The main lead was eight-year-old Darsheel Safary, who played a shy, yet a highly artistic boy suffering from dyslexia. Aamir plays his art teacher who recognises his problem and helps him accordingly. The touching saga brought forth the social stigma, and denial that dyslexic children, and their parents, face. It also showcased how this is not a lifelong problem and can certainly be resolved. A complete family film with a very strong message which brought numerous accolades to itself as well as its director/producer.\n\nThis was the first of many for Aamir Khan. It was the first remake (of the Tamil hit by the same name) that Aamir agreed to work on. Also, it was the first Hindi film to gross more than Rs.100 crores in revenue, thus forming the 100 crore club in Bollywood. The third aspect was this was the first time that an actor had docufilm his entire body transformation. This was released post the film release. Aamir had completely bulked up to play the short-term memory sufferer in search of his beloved’s murderers. Though a grim film, this also hit big on the chartbusters.\n\nThis coming-of-age comedy-drama film is based on Chetan Bhagat’s novel Five Point Someone. A multi-starrer that covers the dark truth behind the pressures that the current Indian education system puts on all the students. It also follows the friendship of three students, one of them being Aamir Khan. This musical blockbuster strongly put across the message that “Follow excellence and success will by itself follow you”. Aamir played the role of a good-hearted prodigal student to the hilt. His self-transformation, to play a twenty-something-year-old, is very evident throughout the film. The childlike mannerisms of his character appealed across generations of viewers. His character is also inspired from Indian engineer, innovator and education reformist Sonam Wangchuk.\n\nAamir Khan played an alien, trying to get back to his planet, in this satirical comedy. The movie was focussed on how the alien found religious dogmas and superstitions very strange and in contrast to what the actual religion preached. The perfectionist took on a number of characteristics to play the lovable, almost childlike, alien. PK had green eyes, spoke Bhojpuri, never blinked while talking, continuously chewed on paan and had a very unique walk. Aamir actually learned Bhojpuri and would eat almost 100 paans in a day. The Aamir Khan – Rajkumar Hirani – Vidhu Vinod Chopra trio really hit big with this family entertainer.\n\nCompleting our special list of Aamir Khan movies is Dangal. Mr. Khan plays a middle-aged ex-wrestler, working in a government job, who trains his daughters to become India’s first world-class female wrestlers. This was also produced by Aamir and his wife Kiran Rao. This is considered as one of Aamir’s finest emotional performances till date as he plays the strict, yet caring, father who wants to prove that daughters can, and will, be as good as sons… or even better! Again, Aamir Khan not only impressed the world with his acting but with his body transformation as well. The highlight being that he chose to shoot as the paunchy middle aged father first, took a break to completely hard tone his physique and then shoot the flashback where he is the young champion wrestler that he was."

"Jennifer Lopez celebrated her 50th birthday with approximately 57,000 Israeli fans this past week. “I want to thank you for coming to celebrate with me. Shalom! I learned how to say this — ani ohev otcha! [I love you],” J-Lo lovingly addressed her fans this week during her first concert in the State of Israel.",
null,
"The enormous crowd in Haryakon Park was ecstatic to have Lopez in Israel, after several failed attempts in the past.\n\nShe arrived with fiancé Alex Rodriguez along with Rodriguez’s two children from his first marriage, and Lopez’s twins she had with fellow singer Marc Anthony. They instantly tweeted to share their enthusiasm about their very first trip to Israel. What a delightful relief from all the BDS backlash, the Squad’s political antics, and the ever-growing violent acts of anti-Semitism!\n\nWhat if Jennifer Lopez came “back home” with her birthday concert visit? What if “Jenny from the block” has Jewish ancestry and possibly has a Jewish bashert fiancé?\n\nShe was born in the Bronx to Puerto Rican parents named Guadalupe Rodriguez and David Lopez. Sephardic history shows that both Rodriguez and Lopez are two of the most well-known names for the descendants of forcibly converted Spanish and Portuguese Jews known as Marranos and crypto-Jews.\n\nAn article on July 31 in The Jerusalem Post has a tagline claiming “200 million people may be descendants of the Spanish and Portuguese communities forced to convert to Christianity.” That claim is supported by Ashley Perry (Perez), president of Reconectar, a project that focuses on facilitating the reconnection of descendants of the Spanish and Portuguese Jewish communities with the Jewish people.\n\nRecent genetic research released this year found that 25% – or one in four – of Hispanics and Latinos have Jewish DNA. That is a stunning discovery.\n\nPerry, who is also the director-general of the Knesset Caucus for the Reconnection with the Bnei Anousim, told The Jerusalem Post that he would argue that the expulsion of the Jews from Spain and later Portugal “is the most significant Jewish date in history since the fall of the Second Temple. It was the game-changing moment.”",
null,
"Let’s start with a little history lesson. The Spanish Inquisition took place between 1480 and 1530. According to Wikipedia, various sources give different estimates of the number of trials and executions in this period. The great majority were against the conversos of Jewish origin or The New Christians.\n\nIn January of 1492, the Spanish church and royal family gave the Jews the choice between expulsion and conversion.\n\nDon Isaac Abravanel (Isaac ben Judah Abarbanel, commonly referred to as Abarbanel. He was a Portuguese Jewish statesman, Torah scholar and published commentator, and government finance minister); he also documented 300,000 Jews who fled from Spain. However, the vast majority of conversos simply assimilated into the Catholic dominant culture, a minority continued to practice Judaism in secret, gradually migrated throughout Europe, North Africa, the Ottoman Empire and the New World of the Americas.\n\nIn a blog post of the Times of Israel, Perry writes about the Jewish presence in Puerto Rico. It can be traced back to the 15th century and the Second Voyage of Christopher Columbus (who reportedly was Jewish himself). Jews settled on the beautiful island hoping to flee from the horrific religious scrutiny of the Spanish Inquisition. They hoped that there would be safety in great distance, but unfortunately that was not the case as Spain established their colonies in the New World. The crypto-Jews were forced to resettle in the island’s remote areas away from the main city business districts.\n\nAccording to a National Geographic DNA project conducted in 2014, the average Puerto Rican individual has 65% West Eurasian (Mediterranean, Northern European and/or Middle Eastern) DNA. These findings give credence to the Jewish roots of the PR people.\n\nOf course, Jennifer Lopez and A-Rod need DNA tests to prove any Jewish heritage at all. Yet, wouldn’t it be nice if the multi-talented super-glamorous J-LO and her soon-to-be husband, baseball legend Alex Rodriguez, found out that they were just a nice Jewish couple about to walk under the chupah?",

"Gillian was at the end of a long project, converting a two bedroom bungalow into a 4 bedroomed house. It had been gruelling and exhausting and now, at the end of her project, the budget was stretched to its limits.\n\nGill wanted a classic Shaker-style kitchen, with luxury touches for her contemporary new home. Something timeless, that wouldn’t date, but would always look fresh and still modern. Tina listened to Gill’s ideas, tweaked them and presented her with exactly what she’d envisaged – all within budget.\n\nThe result is now the kitchen Gill always wanted. Classic and stylish, set around a palette of light and dark oak, with stone as the main theme, offset with a neutral palette of greys, creams and taupe. At the centre of the kitchen is the island as the focal point – just as she’d envisaged.\n\n“When Tina at Modern Homes got involved in my project, everything fell into place,” says Gillian Hurst, of Leamington. “In retrospect, I don’t know why I wasted six months shopping around, when I should have just given them the work in the first place!”\n\n“We had no kitchen and were living off the microwave and slow cooker,” continues Gill. “I just wanted things sorted, but at that time, I felt my ideas and budget weren’t compatible. However, once I’d found Modern Homes, I knew that they could be.”\n\n“Although this was a design and supply only project, I felt the company went beyond the norm in terms of customer care,” says Gill. “They even got the manufacturer to produce one bespoke unit made for me, to fit around the sink’s unusual dimensions.”\n\n“I cannot thank Modern Homes enough,” says Gill. “They understood me from the start. I simply offloaded my problems and stress, they took it on and designed and supplied what is essentially my dream kitchen.”",

"Time is running out to upgrade for free\n\nWindows 10 arrived on July 29th 2015. Reception has generally been very good and certainly more positive than for the release of Windows 8. To encourage adoption, Microsoft have been offering a free upgrade to users with devices running Windows 7, 8 and 8.1.\n\nhe free upgrade period ends on 29th July 2016 and after that getting Windows 10 will cost you upwards of £70 (depending on retailer and edition). So far it’s estimated that over 200 million PCs have taken advantage of the offer and upgraded.\n\nHere at Optima we’ve been using Windows 10 since it was in beta. Obviously as an IT company it’s important for us to get to know any software that our customers might be using so we can offer support and assistance. But from a purely user point of view we’ve been pleasantly surprised. Some of our staff embrace change better than others but overall everyone in the office seems very content with Windows 10.\n\nTry before you (don’t) buy\n\nA useful feature of the upgrade is that you can roll it back to your previously operation system if you decide you don’t like it. It only takes a few clicks to roll the system back to the previous version of Windows (just be careful not to delete the windows.old folder that is created during the upgrade until you are 100% sure you don’t want to go back).\n\nAlthough it was a feature some in the office liked, Microsoft has ditched the tiled metro style of Windows 8 and reverted to a more traditional layout.\n\nMany people will be glad to see the Start Menu making a comeback (although this was also restored in Windows 8.1) and it now features optional ‘live tiles’ in a nod to those that liked this feature of Windows 8. The impression when the start menu is open is almost of a Windows mobile phone laying horizontally on your desktop and although this sounds strange it works very well.\n\nOne of the most important things to consider when thinking about upgrading to Windows 10 is to look at any vital software you use and make sure it will run. Many companies have business critical programs that could cause huge disruption if they were to suddenly stop functioning. The good news is that under the hood Windows 10 has a lot in common with previous versions so if your programs are running fine on Windows 7 or 8 they should be good to go with 10.\n\nLike previous versions, 10 also has a ‘compatibility’ mode that trick the application into thinking you are running an older version of Windows. This mode should enable automatically when possible compatibility options are detected.\n\nIf you are unsure about the compatibility of a critical application the best option is to search the internet for it. Windows 10 has been out long enough now for most applications to have been tested with it and any problems reported. There also may be information on the manufacturers website.\n\nIf your computer is part of an office network we would suggest talking to your IT department (or giving us a call!) before upgrading.\n\nEach version of Windows has a shelf life as Microsoft only releases security updates and patches for a limited time. This time is measured in years and even with Windows 7 installed you still have until the year 2020 before you need to worry. Upgrading to Windows 10 would give you 5 extra years of updates as its ‘End of Life’ is not due until 14th October 2025.\n\nMore information on Windows life-cycles can be found on the Microsoft website.\n\nAs we’ve mentioned, almost everyone in the office is more than happy with Windows 10 and some have been using it for over a year now. It’s gone a long way to restoring confidence in Microsoft after the bad taste left by Windows 8. In our opinion it is basically what Windows 8 should have been and what Microsoft must wish it had been. You could argue that perhaps people were just not ready for the radical interface changes in Windows 8 but after using 10 for any length of time it’s obvious that it’s far more intuitive, on a desktop PC anyway, for deeper reasons than just being more familiar.\n\nThe bottom line is that if your computer is not too old and you are sure that any important applications will run then upgrading to Windows 10 is a no-brainer.\n\nEspecially as it’s currently free. But only until 29th July so don’t delay!"

"The following was shared with the CopBlock Network via the submit page. If you have a story of police misconduct or have penned an op-ed regarding the police, please share it with us and of the editors will publish it. If you are interested in taking a more active role in spreading the message that Badges Don’t Grant Extra Rights, consider joining the CopBlock Network and filling one of the many roles that fits into your schedule.\n\nBesides playing a sport, what do Ray Rice and Adrian Peterson have in common? Both NFL players abused their loved ones and had their stories widely publicized by the media. Ray Rice was caught on camera dragging his then girlfriend out of an elevator after punching her causing her to fall unconscious. Adrian Peterson beat his four-year-old son with a tree branch and photos were later leaked.\n\nIt may come as a shock that the rate of domestic violence is higher with police officers than NFL players, but why have we never heard of this? As a society, it seems that we value entertainment over education. By this I mean that we are addicted to the drama and exposure of famous athletes wrong-doings and fail to report on the same police crimes.\n\nThis study went on to explain that police officers typically handle in-home domestic violence incidents informally, meaning that they are directly contradicting their police duties to protect others when they are the ones causing the harm. Additionally, there is rarely an investigation, an official report written up, or an effort to check the victim’s stability and health after the incident. Although police officers are trained to treat domestic violence situations as high-priority and as life threatening situations, police officers who engage in harming their significant other typically ignore these taught guidelines.\n\nIt appears that as a society we are exposed to more domestic violence cases when it involves our favorite athlete instead of being educated about police domestic violence. Why is that? After all, the police are the ones we call to protect us against this type of behavior.\n\nAre Police Officers Who Beat Their Loved Ones Held Accountable?\n\nPolice officers who harm their loved ones are aware of the law and the proper procedure following a domestic violence incident, yet their cases are not handled in the same manner as a common citizen. There are mandatory arrests in 21 states following a domestic violence allegation yet, 30% of police officers accused of domestic violence continue to work at the same agency a year later. However, if you fail a drug test as an officer, only 1% will remain employed at their agency and 7% of officers remain after committing theft. The New York Times reported in a 2013 investigation that, “In many departments, an officer will automatically be fired for a positive marijuana test, but can stay on the job after abusing or battering a spouse.” How is domestic violence excused more often than getting caught for having marijuana in your bloodstream?\n\nOne example of a study indicating police officers are not held accountable for their domestic violence actions show that between 1990 and 1997 the LAPD investigated 227 domestic violence cases that were reported. Ninety-one of these cases were further investigated. Out of those 91 allegations, only 4 resulted in jail time for the convicted officer. Out of the four officers who received a criminal charge for their battery, only one was suspended from the force for 15 days and later had his conviction erased from his record. From this same investigation, 75% of the time these domestic violence incidents took place, it did not show up on the officer’s evaluation. Out of those 91 officers arrested, 29% of them were promoted in the two years following their convictions. Police officers and NFL players tend to have a similar punishment for domestic violence – a short time away from their profession and then quickly returning to their career.\n\nWhat are some concerns for reporting domestic violence from a police officer?\n\nCould these reasons factor into the lack of media coverage on domestic abuse of police officers?\n\nWhat are we valuing as a society as far as protection?\n\nThe job of an NFL football player is to love their team, give their best athletic performance, and encourage their team members to play their best game. The job of a police officer is to protect their community, serve justice, and to make others feel safe in their presence. Domestic violence is a real and severe issue that affects men and women worldwide. Why does the media favor uncovering NFL player’s crime stories over police officer’s domestic violence crimes? Why don’t we focus on the people who signed up to keep our communities safe yet have a higher rate of domestic violence in their homes?"

"Van Life Is Not an Adventure When You’re Homeless",
null,
"Five separate mechanics have looked at my van at three different shops. They all tell me it’s a good van that’s just starting to show its age. Of course, a van from 2009 with over 150,000 miles on it will have issues. However, I’ve known people with older vehicles who get away with oil changes and the occasional repair that amounts to under $1000 here and there. They have had their vehicle for years. That’s never how my luck runs.\n\nI did everything right. I ordered a Carfax report, and a mechanic looked it over and passed it for inspection when I bought it in 2020 for $5,500. The van replaced my 24-year-old Plymouth van that had no prayer of passing inspection again without dumping massive money into it.\n\nThe sellers drove it to where I usually am located, and it drove well. It got new tires and had an oil change. What could I have done differently to have changed the outcome?\n\nAfter a few months, the radiator sprung a leak; that repair was $600. Then another issue having to do with the regulation of the cooling of the vehicle happened, which was another $600. Then the following year, 2021, things got worse.\n\nFirst, the air conditioning died just as summer began, costing $1,700 to repair the entire system. Now I hear some people say, “But you can live without working air conditioning. Just open the windows.”\n\nI am sorry, but no, I cannot. I have a medical condition known as heat intolerance, which is common in patients like me with multiple sclerosis. Staying cool is vital to my survival (though I could make the argument that my life isn’t worth surviving).\n\nShortly after that, I had a tire blowout. That cost $157 because the tire was unsalvageable, and then as if I didn’t pay enough “car karma” since getting this van, I am hit with another massive repair. The front end needed new brakes/rotors/wheel bearings/calipers and an alignment. That resulted in another $2,000!\n\nThe repairs were done just before winter set in. I thought I was home free. Then in January, the ABS light came on (Anti-lock Braking System). I had never driven a vehicle with an ABS, so I was surprised. Some optimistic people told me it’s probably a tiny problem like a sensor that needed replacing.\n\nBut the good news was that you can still pass inspection even with the ABS in New York State.\n\nSo in mid-February, I took the van to be inspected six weeks before the inspection would be up on March 31s. Imagine my shock to find out the van wouldn’t pass, not because of the ABS thing, but because the computer was reading “Not Ready,” and there were codes to be cleared pertaining to the O2 sensor and other things.\n\nI’m not a vehicle person, so please don’t ask me to explain all the technical stuff. I drove off with a new battery, which was warranted. Then they told me to drive 100 miles to reset the computer, and all should be fine.\n\nFive hundred miles later, after driving, coming in for a check, driving another hundred miles, and checking in with them repeatedly, the computer still didn’t clear. During that time, I received a ticket for driving without an inspection sticker. The van finally passed inspection three months later, costing me an unbelievable amount of money just in fuel, as fuel rose to almost $5 per gallon!\n\nFive different mechanics looked at the van during this disaster of failed inspection. I should add this dragged on because automotive shops are backed up to two to four weeks for appointments. There is also a vehicle shortage. Used vehicles are in demand and going for much more money than they were worth at the start of Covid, which is when I bought mine.\n\nAs of this writing, I am currently in the process of circulating yet another gofundme that my friend set up to pay for repairs.\n\nThe repair I did in the front end only seven months ago is now needed in the rear. Brakes/wheel bearings/rotors/calipers. Four of the five mechanics I’ve seen in three different shops feel strongly that this repair should resolve the ABS issue. That system is engaged all the time now. Braking is getting scary. I can’t quickly brake on a dime. Anytime I brake at all, I can feel the ABS engaged.\n\nIn 2022, the van has cost me $800 between an O2 sensor replacement, a new battery, and other stuff. Now I face another $2,000, and the year is only half over. This is not to mention the cost of gasoline, which I cannot begin to calculate how much I have spent so far in 2022 on gas.\n\nAs mobile homelessness becomes increasingly prevalent, the price of van life is getting even more expensive, including the cost of used vans. Life in a van sucks, but the luxury van life advocates have made it sound glamorous. It’s great if you have unlimited money. If the van needs work, you can check into a hotel, and you don’t have to panic about not having enough money to pay the mechanics. You have a shower, bathroom, and kitchenette in a luxury vehicle. In a passenger van or car, you don’t.\n\nI invite you to view Mobile, a film I reviewed about mobile homelessness made in California by Invisible People. It will give you a taste of what life is like when a car has to double as your living place.\n\nThere may be some people for whom this lifestyle works. For most people, it does not. And when you are disabled with special needs and need medical equipment requiring electricity, life in a van is hardly a fulfilling way to live.\n\nAlso, trust me on this, it’s not cheap. You have no fridge for food storage, and gas costs alone will consume much of your monthly allotment. If you think vehicle ownership is a hassle, imagine the non-stop stress of vehicle dwelling on top of that! If you’re poor, I don’t recommend it."

"Who’s In Control Of Your Life?",
null,
"Who's in control of my life?\n\nWho was in control of their lives?\n\nIf you still say to yourself that you aren’t in control of your life, then you have given the control to others. Why would you give control to others? Perhaps you didn’t give it away, but instead, it was taken from you. Or, maybe you were afraid of the responsibility you must assume in order to have control. It’s possible you were just perplexed over what to do with the power.\n\nI know I haven’t come close to listing all of the reasons why a person might give-up control of her/his life. Sometimes, a person is just overwhelmed and allows someone else to take control. Another interesting way in which we can lose control of our lives is by giving too much of our time to others. If that happens, we end up with no time for our own lives. And, consider how many give-up control of their own life by following the dream of another. I was once told by a fellow teacher, who had been teaching for twenty years, that he didn’t like teaching and only became a teacher because his parents wanted him to.\n\nI'm in control of this person!\n\nNo matter what the reason for your feelings regarding not having control over your life, ultimately, you are responsible for being “in control” of your life. If you think the mortgage company is in control, then you have sacrificed controlling your life for controlling your “stuff.” For example, if you buy cars, houses, entertainment, etc. that are more than you can afford, then paying the bills takes control of you life. Or, you might sacrifice your time to the point where your life is no longer yours. Ultimately, control of your life is yours to “give away.”\n\nPerhaps, you are thinking about other lives while doing some creative thinking regarding their control. Maybe you’ve come up with some examples where you’re confident the people in them don’t have a choice regarding who controls their lives. For example, who controls a prisoner’s life. Well, a prisoner is controlled by the penal system. But, what part of the prisoner is controlled? Are the prisoner’s thoughts, choices, decisions, etc. controlled by the penal system? Generally, no! Excluding a few exceptions, prisoners have control over their lives – they just don’t have as much freedom as most who aren’t prisoners.\n\nReally! So, I'm in control of my life?\n\nOur society seems to put those who give their all on a pedestal. Especially celebrated are the people who give their all without any regard for the impact it has on themselves. Consider how many respect the person who does without sleep, exercise and food, – the basic needs we all have in order to thrive – just to accomplish some temporary goal.\n\nStudying for an academic test and driving a long distance for a vacation are two examples of how I have been given a lot of respect for doing without sleep, exercise and food. In the examples, I wanted to accomplish the goals of passing a test and arriving at the vacation destination. In both cases, with proper planning, I would not have had to do without sleep, exercise or food. I gave-up control of my life in order to accomplish goals and, in doing so, “the goal was in control.“ :-)\n\nImagine this car is your life. Who's driving?\n\nThe reasons we are not in control of our own lives are endless. I have had many reasons that I’ve used as justifications for not being in control, but usually, they were only excuses AND not reasons. In fact, most could be considered lies.\n\nIf you imagine your life as a car, then who’s driving your car? Isn’t it time for you to get in the driver’s seat and take control? When you’re driving then you can decide where you’re going. Why let someone or something else decide, when it’s your life?\n\nWho is in control of your life?\n\n← Can I NOT Imagine?\nDoes A Complex Problem’s Solution Require Creative Thinking? →\n\n1 Comments on “Who’s In Control Of Your Life?”"

"Larry Krasner speaks in September 2017 at a rally in support of the DACA program. /Kristi Petrillo\n\nWhat information, exactly, does the City of Philadelphia share with federal immigration authorities? The public may soon have an answer.\n\nJudge Abbe F. Fletman of the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas yesterday ordered the District Attorney’s Office to release an agreement it has with Immigration and Customs Enforcement.\n\nLast spring, The Declaration made a request under Pennsylvania’s Right to Know Law for the bylaws of the Preliminary Arraignment Reporting System, a database that shares arrest information between the Philly courts, police and prosecutors.\n\nWe also requested the current agreement allowing ICE agents to access the data in PARS. The federal government can use that data to initiate immigration proceedings against undocumented immigrants in City custody.\n\nIn 2010, then-Mayor Michael Nutter barred federal authorities from seeing the names of victims and witnesses in PARS, and activists have periodically called for a complete termination of immigration agents’ access several times since.\n\nHowever, the public has not seen the terms of the most recent agreement allowing ICE access. As a result, the public is in the dark about what data the City of Philadelphia, a purported “sanctuary city,” is providing to immigration authorities.\n\nIn response to our request, the District Attorney’s Office under Seth Williams and under Interim DA Kelley Hodge insisted that it did not have copies of its own contract and that only the Philadelphia courts could provide copies.\n\nCoincidentally, the Right to Know Law only applies to court records if they involve financial transactions, and the Philadelphia’s court administrator denied our request on the basis that the PARS records were not financial, though we disagree with that decision.\n\nThe state Office of Open Records found that the DA was legally required to obtain a copy of a contract it had signed and release it to the public, but the DA appealed that ruling to the Court of Common Pleas.\n\nJudge Fletman rejected all of the District Attorney’s contentions, noting that she found it “hard to conceive why the DAO would not want a copy” of its own contract and that the Right to Know Law prohibits agencies from hiding documents with third parties.\n\nThe Court also ruled that the DA’s refusal to seek a copy of its own contract from the court administrator “raises questions about whether it has avoided asking… to frustrate the purposes” of the Right to Know Law.\n\n“The DAO may have put the documents in the hands of a third party to avoid exposing them to sunlight,” Judge Fletman found.\n\nKrasner’s campaign promises included increased transparency and he told The Declaration that “any inadequacy in record-keeping practices inside the DA’s Office is inexcusable. Should I be elected, such lapses won’t be tolerated.”\n\nIt’s now on Krasner to show that he is serious about increasing the sunlight on his office, in contrast to his predecessors."

"Florida-based NextEra Energy engaged in “oral discussions” with embattled crony capitalist utility SCANA for the purchase of one of its subsidiaries.\n\nSpecifically, the company floated an offer to buy North Carolina-based PSNC Energy from SCANA for $2 billion.\n\nThat’s according to testimony provided to the embattled South Carolina Public Service Commission (SCPSC) by SCANA CEO Jimmy Addison, who inherited the reins of his company in the aftermath of its involvement in the #NukeGate debacle.\n\nPSNC Energy provides natural gas service to an estimated 550,000 customers in the Tar Heel State. Business is booming, too, with the company undertaking a massive pipeline project to meet growing demand in central North Carolina.\n\nNextEra, incidentally, is a co-owner of the company building the pipeline.\n\nWhy is this revelation significant?\n\nIt marks the first time this Juno Beach conglomerate has been formally linked to a proposal involving SCANA. Back in March, this news site reported exclusively on a rumored deal reportedly submitted by NextEra for government-run utility Santee Cooper – which partnered with SCANA on #NukeGate.\n\nThat proposal – which would have involved a hefty taxpayer-funded bailout – was never publicly tied to NextEra, although several state lawmakers acknowledged negotiating offline with the company with regard to both in-state utilities.\n\nFor those of you uninitiated (and it seems as though there are quite a few of you) #NukeGate is the spectacularly failed intervention of state government in the nuclear power business.\n\nWith state lawmakers enabling them, SCANA and Santee Cooper blew through $10 billion on the construction of a pair of next generation nuclear reactors in Jenkinsville, S.C. Of that sum, $2 billion was collected directly from SCANA ratepayers – essentially socializing a significant chunk of the investment risk related to this doomed project.\n\nThe reactors were supposed to have been operational in 2016 and 2017, respectively, but they weren’t – and the utilities couldn’t afford the estimated $10-16 billion price tag necessary to complete them. As a result, Santee Cooper pulled the plug on July 31 of last year – killing an estimated 5,600 jobs and throwing the state’s energy future into turmoil.\n\nFrom there, the drama has only escalated.\n\nThe collapse of the project – and the revelation that executives at both utilities knew the projects were doomed but raised rates on consumers anyway – has spawned all sorts of fallout. We are talking about ratepayer lawsuits, political intrigue, election-year politicking, criminal investigations and of course a furious debate over how to move forward in the wake of the project’s abandonment.\n\nOne – well, two proposals to purchase SCANA have been submitted by Virginia-based Dominion Energy, including a deal that would provide $1.3 billion in rebates to ratepayers. Not surprisingly, that plan is very popular with ratepayers. State lawmakers – led by S.C. Senate majority leader Shane Massey – have thus far rebuffed those proposals, although Dominion’s most recent proposal was supported last month by S.C. speaker of the House Jay Lucas.\n\nDominion has also made a bid to enter into a yet-to-be-detailed “unique management arrangement” with Santee Cooper as part of its bid for SCANA. News of that offer was exclusively reported by this outlet two weeks ago.\n\nThe only other “deal” on the table? A legislative “solution” that faces a very uncertain legal future.\n\nLawmakers’ proposal – passed back in June – would have provided more long-term relief, but would have killed the rebates offered by Dominion. Legislators also took an estimated $300 billion in up-front relief envisioned as part of the Dominion deal and made it part of their proposal, another item related to this ongoing saga that broke exclusively on this news outlet.\n\nOur view? We have not endorsed any of the proposals on the table.\n\nWe like the potential stimulative effective of the Dominion rebates, however we do believe the company can do better in terms of lowering rates over the long-term. Having said that, lawmakers (like Massey) who are hyperventilating in reflexive opposition to the Dominion deal are doing a disservice to this debate.\n\n“It is no coincidence these are the same people who threw rocks at our deal,” one pro-Dominion source told this news site. “Their transparent goal is becoming clearer for those who willing to see: Drive SCANA into the dirt with help of a few friends in the legislature and force them to sell the pipeline business cheap.”\n\nThat’s a reference to a secretive NextEra front group called the Palmetto Energy Coalition – which was unmasked back in the spring.\n\nMassey’s latest tweetstorm – which accused the company of “deception and bullying” of state regulators – was the latest over-the-top pronouncement from the Aiken Republican, who recently acknowledged his support of a contemplated corporate coup at SCANA.\n\nWe rebuke such political meddling.\n\nLegislative involvement in this industry has been an unmitigated disaster … which is why we have repeatedly called on Palmetto politicians to stand down and allow the private sector to extricate the state from this debacle as much as possible.\n\nGot something you’d like to say in response to one of our stories?

"Senators Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Jim Inhofe (R-OK), the new ranking member of the Senate Armed Forces Committee, think they have found a way to gum up progress on the confirmation process of Chuck Hagel.\n\nThey want \"copies\" of speeches he has reportedly given and for which he was occasionally compensated. Hagel has sent all available speeches -- including video fragments or transcripts if they exist -- to the committee and has confessed that he just didn't use prepared texts for a number of these possibly great moments of Hagel oratory.\n\nBut they seem to want them anyway!\n\nWhile I personally think Hagel is always better with a prepared text (Sorry Chuck), like many US senators -- including Inhofe and Cruz no doubt -- Hagel thinks he gives pretty good remarks without the scribbles drafted by an aide organizing his words. Believe me, Chuck Hagel is wrong on this, but he suffers from the same delusions that nearly all of his peers do. From my perspective, Hagel is a top notch thinker and strategist -- but his speaking could always get a boost from a Jon Lovett- or Jon Favreau-type. After all, look what Lovett did for Obama's Correspondent's Dinner fun with Donald Trump.\n\nI've seen John McCain, Jim Inhofe, Jeff Sessions, Roy Blunt and others speak extemporaneously -- and if they were in Hagel's seat, I'm sure they'd be a bit miffed if senators Jeanne Shaheen or Carl Levin or Joe Manchin were pounding on them to produce speech texts that don't exist. They need to get over it. Calling Hagel a \"liar\" is beneath them, beneath the institution in which they work, and not healthy for democracy.\n\nThey also want financial information about donations received by and business done in the private and public firms Hagel was associated with but did not actually control.\n\nTed Cruz's wife works for Goldman Sachs. Let's turn this around a bit. Should Cruz's wife, Heidi, eventually be nominated for something big time -- or Senator Cruz himself have ambitions beyond his senate perch -- will he be able to compel her to make Goldman Sachs, which has considerable equities involving the US national interest, disclose its business and relationships domestic and foreign? I certainly hope not. Wrong way to get at Goldman Sachs -- and an inappropriate expectation from the eventually-nominated-to-something Ted or Heidi Cruz.\n\nIf the Senate wants to call a hearing about Chevron's business or the Atlantic Council's international funders and activities, it should do so! By all means.\n\nSenators John McCain and Joe Lieberman once sat on the board of the Nixon Center for Peace and Freedom, an institution that I am proud of and for which I was grateful for the support of these Senators. But it would be wrong for any United States senator or committee to think that John McCain could force the Nixon Center (now the Center for the National Interest) to disclose private financial information on his behalf.\n\nShould Armed Services Committee Chairman Carl Levin see merit in the requests made by Senators Cruz and others about matters that are proprietary to private firms and not in Hagel's latitude to offer, then this is going to be a really fun slippery slope. The entangled relationships of all US senators and spouses would be screened to see what they might be able to cough up about firms they have some connection to but don't run.\n\nI don't think we should go down that road -- but if Senator Cruz compels it, it should be interesting."

"San Francisco and London are emerging as two of the world’s leading hubs for impact tech, with latest data from London & Partners and Dealroom.co showing that both cities are attracting large amounts of VC investment into startups addressing one or more of the 17 UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDG). The findings have been released to coincide with this week’s Silicon Valley Comes to the UK virtual event series, bringing together investors, entrepreneurs and CEOs from the UK and the Bay Area to discuss issues around sustainability, inclusivity, the future of tech and the importance of collaboration.\n\nAs the world continues to tackle issues such as the climate crisis and social inequality, VC investors are increasingly putting more money into purpose-driven companies, with the data revealing a 280% increase in global VC investment into impact tech companies from 2015 to 2020. 1 Impact tech companies based in London and San Francisco have contributed heavily to this growth, with the research showing that total VC investment into impact tech has grown rapidly in both cities over the past five years.\n\nAccording to the research, VC investment into London-based impact tech start-ups has grown by almost 800% (7.8 times) since 2015, compared to 3.1 times in Europe as a whole. 2020 is set to be a record year for London’s impact tech companies, who have received $1.2bn in VC investment from January to October, already matching 2019 levels. London’s impact firms have also secured 429 deals between 2015 and 2020, more than any other city globally.\n\nLondon and San Francisco are also home to two of the largest impact tech start-up clusters in the world, with the new research revealing that the two cities have consistently produced a high volume of impact companies since 2006, the year SVC2UK started. The UK capital has produced 241 impact start-ups since 2006, with 95 companies founded in San Francisco.\n\nAs both cities continue to produce a high volume of unicorn companies, London added three new impact unicorns to its ranks this year to make a total of four, while San Francisco leads globally with seven. Octopus Energy, Arrival and Gousto joined Babylon Health on London’s list of impact unicorns.\n\nJanet Coyle, Managing Director for Business, London & Partners said: “San Francisco and London are two of the world’s top hubs for innovation and technology. But today’s figures also show that they are leading the way in creating purpose-driven companies striving to tackle some of the most pressing environmental and social challenges. The fact that London and San Francisco are attracting high levels of VC investment into impact tech companies is testament to our collaborative and supportive tech ecosystems, including dedicated VCs and accelerators for purpose-driven tech companies. SVC2UK connects the Bay Area and UK tech communities to foster an inclusive and diverse network of entrepreneurs and inspire the next generation of innovators. It is now more important than ever that we come together to drive good growth as we build back better from the effects of the global pandemic.”\n\nNicole Quinn, Partner at Lightspeed Venture Partners, added: “It's exciting to see the growth of impact tech clusters in San Francisco, London and the rest of the world. Investors are always on the lookout for game changing technologies and we are seeing lots of opportunities in areas such as mental health and sustainable solutions. These figures show that it is possible to match profit with purpose. I am looking forward to taking part in this year’s Silicon Valley Comes to the UK programme as it provides a great opportunity to bring together likeminded people from two of the world’s leading tech ecosystems.”\n\nClimate change and clean energy solutions have attracted the most interest from investors in London and San Francisco, making up over 50% of overall VC investment into impact companies in both cities over the last five years. This demonstrates the booming demand for climate change solutions as startups play a critical role in reaching an inclusive net zero future.\n\nFunding rounds for London impact companies involving North American investors in 2020 include a $118m growth equity round into Arrival by Blackrock, a $80m Series B round for COMPASS Pathways and a $25m Series C funding for Tractable. The rapid increase in VC investment into London’s purpose-driven startups over the last five years indicates that increasing interest from international investors is likely to continue over the next few years.\n\nThe United States is also a key market for London-based impact firms looking at international expansion. Electric vehicle startup Arrival is already operating in Los Angeles and will open its first US factory in South Carolina next year, while Octopus Energy launched in the US market in September after closing a $360m funding round in April and acquiring Silicon Valley-based startup Evolve Energy.\n\nImpact startups in San Francisco are similarly looking across the Atlantic to London for their international expansion plans. For example, San Francisco-based Allbirds, the sustainable shoe retailer which has recently extended into clothing apparel, opened its first European flagship store in London in July 2018 and from there accelerated its international expansion into other European cities.\n\nSandeep Verma, SVP of Commercial, Allbirds said: “We opened our first store outside of North America in London two years ago with an on-the-ground local team, and it placed us in a strong strategic position to expand into other European markets from the UK capital. Our e-commerce platform and bricks-and-mortar locations have seen a fantastic response from the UK market and as a result, we have accelerated our European presence, now serving 28 new countries, with four physical stores. As a growing company dedicated to balancing purpose and profit, the strength of our international business allows us to continue to invest in natural material innovations, expand our retail fleet and commit to meaningful environmental initiatives.”\n\nGreg Jackson, CEO and Founder, Octopus Energy said: “It was a no brainer to set up Octopus Energy in London, surrounded by like-minded tech innovators and game-changing businesses. We're using technology to make a big green dent in the universe, and from our base in London, we've built a further 5 offices across the UK and also have businesses in Australia, Germany and most recently the USA. We're passionate about making the UK the global ‘Silicon Valley of Energy’, but we would not have been able to grow so quickly domestically or internationally without the support of London’s highly innovative tech ecosystem.”\n\nThe new data is released to coincide with the four-day SVC2UK virtual event programme this week, bringing together global tech leaders from around to the world to foster an inclusive and diverse network of entrepreneurs and inspire the next generation of innovators.\n\nEvery year SVC2UK also announces a list of high-growth technologies joining the SVC2UK Scale Up Club, celebrating the most ambitious companies in the UK. This year, an impressive 81% of its new members are impact companies.\n\nFor the Impact & Innovation database, we consider an impact startup to be a company that is addressing one or more of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). So far, we have manually classified over 5,000 startups using this framework.\n\nLondon & Partners is London’s international trade, investment and promotion agency. Our purpose is to support the Mayor’s priorities by promoting London as the best city in the world in which to invest, work, study and visit. We do this by devising creative ways to promote London and to amplify the Mayor’s messages, priorities and campaigns. London & Partners is a not-for-profit public private partnership, funded by the Mayor of London and our network of commercial partners.

"Taras lived with his partner, several pet dogs, and a cat in Costa del Sol, Spain. The pet siblings shared an incredible bond and always had a gentle nature towards the other pets.",
null,
"Recently, one of his dogs had given birth. So, Taras wanted to introduce the cat to the little ones. So, the owner placed all the puppies on a vast bed where his pet cat was resting.\n\nMost of the puppies decided to rest and were probably in their own sweet world, dreaming about food. However, after one of the puppies woke up and walked toward the feline, he woke up the other siblings.",
null,
"The cute yet naughty puppy had decided to playfully annoy the beautiful Tabby cat. He followed the cat around the bed as if she were his mother and repeatedly bit the cat’s body.\n\nThe poor animal was a bit taken aback by the boldness of the puppy and moved away. However, this did not make the little one go away. He followed the cat repeatedly and kept irritating her in his own sweet way.",
null,
"The cute puppy wagging his little tail looked adorable. The cat wanted to avoid the puppy at all costs, but the little creature did not want to leave her side. Instead, the naughty pup wanted to play with her.\n\nHe climbed on the cat’s back and continuously wagged his little tail. It felt as if the cute puppy was trying to give the cat a back massage thinking the feline would give in to his charm."

"New parents often fret over their newborn’s frequent hiccups. As parents of a new baby, it’s natural to get nervous about just about everything but, according to science, those adorable baby hiccups might be teaching our babies something.\n\nA new study conducted by the University College London and published in Clinical Neurophysiology looked at the brain scans of preterm and full term babies ranging in gestational age from 30 to 42 weeks to study their reaction to hiccups. Researchers monitored brain activity by attaching electrodes to the babies’ heads and monitored hiccuping by using sensors on the babies’ torsos. When the diaphragm contracted for a hiccup the brain had a pronounced response, leading researchers to believe that the brain is learning through the movement of hiccuping.\n\nThe study’s lead author and a research associate at the University College London’s Department of Neuroscience, Physiology and Pharmacology, Kimberley Whitehead, shared, “The reasons for why we hiccup are not entirely clear, but there may be a developmental reason, given that fetuses and newborn babies hiccup so frequently.”\n\nIt turns out, hiccups may be the body’s way of learning how to regulate breathing in infancy.\n\nAs early as nine weeks into a pregnancy hiccups may be seen in the womb, and during the last ten weeks of pregnancy researchers were able to connect those hiccups with a pronounced brainwave response. Premature babies are known to hiccup more often than full term babies, spending one percent (15 minutes) of their day hiccupping.\n\nThe study’s senior author, Dr. Lorenzo Fabrizi offers, “The activity resulting from a hiccup may be helping the baby’s brain to learn how to monitor the breathing muscles so that eventually breathing can be voluntary controlled by moving the diaphragm up and down.”\n\nWhile adult hiccups might be an annoying part of life, those baby hiccups are anything but. According to science, they’re one more way our babies are learning and another remarkable aspect of human development.",

"An adult and a child enjoy the company of an Oxford police mascot character during the city's downtown Halloween observance Saturday evening, Oct. 30.\n\n“Everything has a line,” one father was overheard telling his child as a cast of hundreds turned Oxford’s Main Street into a veritable feast for the eyes and stomach as “Trick-Or-Treat On Main” was resurrected for another Halloween season.\n\nTraffic pointing toward the historic downtown began lining up hours before the official 6:30 p.m. start time and the sidewalks were filled with ghosts, princesses and comic book characters with bags ready to be filled with candy and goodies.\n\nScreams came from bounce houses and slides as kids were able to work off some of the sugar energy and hyper-fun excitement of the crisp fall Saturday evening.\n\nEven downtown architecture got into the act as the Oxford Performing Arts Center got all dressed up with a special moving light show on its outside walls, dancing to the soundtrack of the classic tune, “Werewolves of London.”\n\nA specially equipped flatbed vehicle provided hayrides which could transport riders from a group of concessionaires on one end of the street to a group at the other end.\n\nRepresentatives of the Oxford Police, Fire and EMS departments were all present with special treats for the youngsters, and even a Halloween scare in the back of an ambulance."

"Mencken: The American Iconoclast: The Life and Times of the Bad Boy of Baltimore\n\nA towering figure on the American cultural landscape, H. L. Mencken stands out as one of our most influential stylists and fearless iconoclasts—he was the twentieth century’s greatest newspaper journalist, a famous wit, and a constant figure of controversy. He fought for civil liberties and free speech when few others would, yet he held paradoxical views of minorities and was conflicted as a German-American during the two world wars. Marion Rodgers frames the public and the private man in a vivid recreation of his era, from the roaring twenties to the depressed thirties and on through World War II. Covered in the book are the many love affairs that made him known as “The German Valentino,” his happy marriage at age fifty, and his pivotal role in introducing James Joyce, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and Langston Hughes to the American literary scene. A 2005 Los Angeles Times Book Prize Nominee for Biography."

"\nThe governor stated that people are defecting to the ruling party because people who have mismanaged funds are scared.",
null,
"Governor, Samuel Ortom of Benue state has alleged that governors of the Peoples Democratic Party(PDP) dumping the party for the All Progressives Congress(APC) are doing so to avoid prosecution from the Federal Government after mismanaging public property.\n\nOn why PDP governors are defecting to APC, Ortom told Sunnewsonline;\n\n\"You know in politics as defined by one of our greatest philosophers in our time, that politics is a game of interest; no permanent enemy, no permanent friend. People are free to defect to any political party for whatever reason that they find expedient.\"\n\n\" I was in PDP when things did not go down well with me, I defected to APC and I won election in 2015 and several other people were carried on my back as a result of my defecting to APC and they won.\"\n\n\"In 2017, when things did not go well and I was defending my people and some people felt that I should not defend my own people, I defected back to PDP and also won election. So I have no issue with those defecting here and there. But the only challenge is that, let those people come clean because you heard the former National Chairman of APC say that when you defect to APC, you will become a saint; even if you are a devil, you will become a saint.\"\n\n\"And so people who have mismanaged themselves and mismanaged public property are afraid. And that’s the instrument that the Federal Government is using on our people. They came to me and I said no, I have no skeleton. Let them bring it out. If you don’t do well, I will take you to court and we dig it out there.\"\n\n\"You have also heard about a minister in the federal republic of Nigeria, current minister serving today who has embezzled a lot of money and bought an estate for $37million and $20million was recovered from her house. And up till today, we have been calling on the presidency to expose that Minister and let there be justice. But have you heard anything from the presidency?\"\n\n\"And even the EFCC, I want to challenge the EFCC Chairman, he is a young man, he should stand on his integrity and what he told us when he was confirmed.\n\nLet there be justice, equity and fairness. He should unearth that Minister; it is not enough to say a serving Minister. Let him come out to tell us who that Minister is and how far he is going about the investigation. We have heard about several former Governors who were being prosecuted by the EFCC but today because they are in the APC, everything is silent.\"\n\n\"The presidency should come out and tell us if his hands are clean. He that comes to equity must come with clean hands. Where are the Mr. President’s clean hands in this matter that we are talking about? How can you be accommodating people who are perceived to have criminal tendencies in your government and you tell me that nothing is happening. It is not fair. This is not the Nigeria we bargained for. This is not what Mr. President stood for in 2015 that prompted Nigerians to vote for him. \""

"In June, Apple announced that iOS 10, the next mobile operating system for the iPhone and iPad, would be the \"biggest release ever\" for iOS. On Wednesday, at Apple's \"iPhone 7\" September keynote address, we learned when we can finally download it: Sept. 13.\n\nWhile you wait, back up your phone. Got it? Good. That's one potential disaster averted. There's another potential issue users could face when trying to install iOS 10: So many people will be downloading it, there will likely be errors and delays; the process itself may be faster and less frustrating for those who wait a few hours before downloading the update.\n\nWhat to expect: iOS 10 has been available to anyone who wants to beta test it, which means we're already familiar with its new features. There are big updates on their way for Messages, Photos, Maps, Siri, HomeKit, the lock screen and many more.\n\nThe biggest changes are coming to the iPhone and iPad's Messages app. Apple has apparently cribbed a lot of its new texting options from Facebook's chat app, Messenger, and the result is a more visual and engaging experience.\n\nInvisible ink gives texts a foggy screen your partner can wipe to reveal. There are stickers, sketches, GIF search and even a heartbeat you can send. Emoji texts are extra large; messages like \"Happy birthday!\" arrive with animated balloons. You can also easily select or snap a photo inside the Messages screen.\n\nThe predictive keyboard has been updated. You can type in two languages at once and get predictive phrases in the keyboard. Messages also has emoji recommendations — a fun feature that'll save you time spent hunting for the perfect punctuation.\n\nPhotos actually became useful when the app merged with iPhoto and let you sync your photo library across devices. Now it's lovely — all your photos can live in the cloud, accessible via your mobile library. This iteration of Photos helps you organize memories into \"faces\" and \"places\": It detects people commonly featured in your pics and asks you to name them so it can create cute little slideshows.\n\nBasically, the iOS 10 Siri update lets you tell more apps to do stuff. You can use Square Cash to send money, post a LinkedIn message, message a friend on WhatsApp or WeChat, find a video on YouTube and even hail a car — all through voice commands. Siri also lets you control your smart home with HomeKit.\n\nI can't say enough good things about the Bedtime app, which charts and regulates your sleep. It also wakes you up with a gentle crescendo of piano, like you accidentally nodded off during a Billy Joel ballad.\n\nRaise to wake is a nice little update. You no longer have to press the home button to see your notifications — just lift the phone to your face to read 'em. The notifications themselves are better: From the lock screen, swipe to the right, then 3-D touch the notifications to see a preview or select options for how to respond. Or hit the \"Clear\" button to X out of any notifications you're done with.\n\nMaps has an update, too. You can make a reservation at a restaurant with OpenTable. There's also built-in Uber support.\n\nWhat else? iTunes has lyrics now. (So does Spotify.) You can finally delete apps like Stocks and Find Friends. Oh yeah, and you can browse your Safari tabs on mobile (if you ever decide to switch from Chrome).\n\nAll in all, iOS 10 is a satisfying update from iOS 9. When you buy the iPhone 7 and get bored with its disappointing set of new features, the operating system will give you plenty of fun things to play with."

"Facebook can’t stay on top forever—not with so many new social apps nipping at its heels, anyway. A new survey of 7,200 U.S. students by research group Piper Jaffray suggests that the social giant is in fact dramatically losing teen users, despite what COO Sheryl Sandberg might want us to believe. In spring 2014, 72 percent of respondents between the ages of 13 and 19 reported that they used Facebook; by fall 2014, that number fell to 45 percent. By all accounts, that’s a massive drop for a company that’s downplayed its waning popularity among the key demographic of younger users for the last year.\n\nAssuming there are no confounding variables—Piper Jaffray claims to have accounted household income and gender—these are some pretty damning stats. A decline is one thing, but 45 percent means that in the span of a few months, Facebook use plummeted, with less than half of teens identifying as Facebook users.\n\nFacebook clearly isn’t unaware of its problem, though it’s questionable if cranking out more standalone mobile products can cure what ails it. The social network, now more than 10-years-old, began as a different product altogether. In 2014, it needs to court a generation that’s been living and breathing social media for the lion’s share of their lives—and it better figure out how to do that quickly.\n\nH/T The Washington Post | Photo via jorislouwes/Flickr (CC BY 2.0)"

"The oversized oyster that rang in 2015 for West York is making a re-appearance at the York St. Patrick’s Day Parade.\n\nYork Fish & Oyster Co.’s first-ever entry is designed as an oyster bar, and leprechauns will shuck raw oysters on the float, said Jenn Emig, who co-owns the West York business with her husband, Steve.\n\nAfter the parade, the company will head to Waterway Bar & Grill and sell about five different oyster dishes — complete with green horseradish, she said.\n\n“St. Patrick’s Day is the day to have fun,” Emig said.\n\nWILKES-BARRE, PA — St. Patrick’s Day is upon Northeastern Pennsylvania, which will include a weekend of parades and other festivities.\n\nFor law enforcement, it will mean more work than usual.\n\nScranton Police Chief Carl Graziano was among the officials at a news conference held at the Lackawanna County Courthouse this week. Officials encouraged residents to enjoy St. Patrick’s Day safely and responsibly.\n\n“As everybody knows, it’s no secret that that’s the biggest alcohol consumption day — at least in the city — is St. Patrick’s Day Parade day,” Graziano said.\n\nCharlie Zahm is one of the most sought-after Celtic singers on the East Coast. Those who attended last year really enjoyed his concert.\n\nThe Saint Patrick’s parade in Scranton boasts 12,000 participants, including multiple bagpipe, high school and string bands. The parade is enhanced by many floats and large balloons. Many Irish groups and societies are also represented. It has been going on annually since 1962 and is organized by the St. Patrick’s Parade Association of Lackawanna County. The parade has received national attention as being one of the better St. Patrick’s parades. The parade route begins on Wyoming Ave in front of St. Peter’s Cathedral, proceeds to Lackawanna Ave. over Jefferson Ave. then down Spruce St to get to Washington Ave. where it passes the William J. Nealon Federal building and finally the reviewing stand.\n\nThe parade is preceded by the Parade Day mass at St. Peter’s Cathedral and the Brian Kelly Memorial race.\n\nThe city of will hold its 34th annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade at 2 p.m. Sunday, March 16. The parade route will begin at South Main and South streets and will travel along South Main to Public Square, around the F.M. Kirby Center and end at the intersection of North Main and Union streets.\n\nAll ages are welcome to enjoy the parade activities and performances throughout the day. Children are invited to Barnes & Noble College Bookstore for a St. Patrick’s Day story hour at noon. Just Plain Crazy Face Art will also be available at noon on Public Square with parade themed artwork for children and adults.",

"Scranton Mayor Chris Doherty received a letter from the White House inviting him and his wife to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with the President and First Lady. Mayor Doherty was surprised by the invitation. V.P. Joe Biden was born in Scranton and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s father was born in Scranton, so there is a Scranton connection in Washington, D.C.\n\nIt should be noted that Scranton’s St. Patrick’s Day parade is reported to be the fourth largest in the United States. 150,000 people pack Scranton for the parade and festivities. The good news is that the parade in Scranton will be on March 12th so Mayor Doherty will still be in town for the celebration.\n\nCongratulations to Mayor Doherty for this high honor.\n\nHappy St. Patrick’s Day to all my readers. May the luck of the Irish be with you today and always."

"Italian drummer Tullio De Piscopo is at his most dynamic here – working with his Revolt Group, in a blend of styles that's very heavy on percussion and electric jazz! At some level, the vibe is a bit like some of the more hard-hitting fusion of the Billy Cobham generation in the US – but there's also some different touches in the mix, as additional percussionists are added to the lineup – which also features Fender Rhodes and moog from the mighty Sante Palumbo, plus saxes from Peter Guidi and Giorgio Baiocco, and guitar from Sergio Farina! The music's definitely in the more jamming side of the European fusion world of the time – jazz, influenced by a bit of prog – although nicely changed up in song modes from track to track, which definitely keeps things interesting. Titles include \"O Sipario\", \"Sotto E Ncoppa\", \"Porta Capuana In Festa\", \"Tarantella Po Scugnizzo\", and \"Rettifilo Ora Di Punta\". © 1996-2022, Dusty Groove, Inc."

"I started my computer career as a Unix system administrator, and when I began using SAS almost 30 years ago it was only natural that I used it on Unix computers (they were the most powerful/capable computers I had access to at the time). I've picked up a lot of \"SAS-on-Unix\" tricks over the years, and I would like to share some of that knowledge with you. And if you're a PC SAS user, don't feel left out - these techniques will work for you too!\n\nBefore we get started, here are a few photos from my friends (Jason, Jennifer, Eva, and Angela) to give you a hint about what data we'll be using.",
null,
null,
null,
"If you guessed \"Canadian immigration data\" you are correct! I recently saw the following immigration graph on reddit. It caught my eye, but the more I looked at it, the more things I wanted to change. For example, I'm not really a fan of stacked area graphs, and I found the text and titles too small to read.",
null,
"My PC SAS license just happened to expire on the day I was creating my version of this graph, so I decided to be lazy and use SAS on our Unix servers (where someone else installs & maintains it), rather than re-installing or extending the SAS license on my PC.\n\nI was pleased to find the reddit author posted a link to the data they had used in their graph. I downloaded the file, and just my Unix-luck ... it was an xlsx Excel spreadsheet. Spreadsheets are a great way to store and share data, and if you're using PC SAS it's a trivial matter to import the data. But if you've been using SAS on Unix for many years, you probably remember that it's traditionally been a bit harder to handle there. Here are some alternative ways I've used over the years, to get the Excel data into Unix SAS (listed in a somewhat chronological order, of when that functionality was available in SAS).\n\nOf course, since I'm using a recent version of SAS (9.4m5) I was able to use the last (and most convenient) of the techniques in the list above. Here's the code I used - note that this exact same code will work on both Unix SAS and PC SAS!\n\nNow that I have my data imported into Unix SAS, I'm ready to start working on my graph. As a long-time SAS/Graph user on Unix, I know that getting the text to look good in graphs has traditionally been harder on Unix than on PCs. Here are several text options I've used over the years.\n\nOf course I used the last option! And since the 'Albany amt' font ships with SAS on all platforms, the exact same SAS code will work on Unix SAS and PC SAS. This is so much easier than it used to be! :-)\n\nThe Rest of the Graph (not Unix-specific)\n\nThe rest of the graph tricks aren't Unix- or PC-specific ... but good tricks nonetheless!\n\nThe spreadsheet had the number of immigrants to Canada from a lot of countries, and I needed to figure out how they picked the \"top 5\" for their original graph. I first checked to see if maybe they picked the top five countries with the most immigrants from the most recent year. I used the following bit of SAS SQL code to quickly produce a list of the immigrants from each country in 2013, sorted by the number if immigrants. The UK was in their graph, but wasn't in the top 5 of this list, so apparently that wasn't the way they calculated it.",
null,
"So I wrote another SQL query to sum up all the immigrants from each country over all the years in the table (1980-2013). Now the top 5 countries matched the ones that were in the original reddit graph. So I intuited this was probably the way they selected them.",
null,
"So I created a chart with those top 5 countries (see below). Here are a few details about how I created the graph:",
null,
"It was close to the new/improved version of the chart I was aiming for ... but the colored bar segments weren't stacked in the same order as the original graph's stacked line/areas - mine were in the default/alphabetical order. At first I couldn't figure out what they were using to control the stacking order in the original chart, but after a bit of studying I saw it - they were using the total immigration numbers! The country with the largest total immigration (across all years) into Canada was drawn first (at the bottom), and the country with the smallest total immigration into Canada was at the top. Therefore I assigned a numeric 'rank' to each country based on their total immigration number, and used that as my subgroup= in Proc GChart. I then created a data-driven SAS user-defined-format so the rank numbers would print as the country names. Now the colors (countries) in my chart are stacked in the same order as the original chart!",
null,
"As I was working with this chart, one question kept popping into my mind ... what about immigration from all those other countries? In the SQL summary tables, it certainly seemed like there were other countries quite close to the \"Top 5\" numbers, so why cut it off at 5? I thought it would be interesting to see the Top 5 in the context of immigration from all the other countries. So I tweaked the code a bit to show all the countries, keeping the colors of the Top 5, and making all the others white (by using a large repeat= on the final/white pattern statement). Note that the large bar segment at the top of some years (such as 1990s) was country='Unknown' ... I intentionally tweaked the rank numbers so those would show up at the end of the stacked bars.",
null,
"Looking at that graph (especially the 2013 bar), it just felt like I should be showing the Top 7 rather than just the Top 5. So I tweaked my code again, and created a graph with the Top 7. Hey - now it even shows immigration from the US! And all those white/non-colored bar segments ... if you want to know what country they are from, you can click here to see the interactive version with HTML mouse-over text (see the mouse-over for Poland in the image below).",
null,
"Hopefully you've learned that it's now (just about) as easy to use SAS on Unix, as it is on a PC. And in the process of learning those SAS-on-Unix tricks, you might have even picked up some cool data- and graphics-tricks along the way! (Here's a link to the full code for the graphs above.)"

"Skip to content\nIn a Nov. 15, 2021, briefing with reporters, State Department spokesperson Ned Price blasts Russia for destroying one of its own satellites and creating a dangerous new debris field in space.\nExpand Photo",
null,
"The U.S. government said Nov. 15 that a Russian anti-satellite missile test created hundreds of thousands of new pieces of orbital debris in a “dangerous, reckless, and irresponsible” act that threatens the interests of the whole world.\n\nState Department spokesperson Ned Price confirmed reports and speculation from earlier in the day, saying in the department’s daily briefing that Russia had “recklessly conducted a destructive satellite test of a direct-ascent satellite missile against one of its own satellites.\n\n“The test has so far generated over 1,500 pieces of trackable orbital debris and hundreds of thousands of pieces of smaller orbital debris that now threaten the interests of all nations,” Price said. “In addition, this test will significantly increase the risks to astronauts—and cosmonauts—on the International Space Station as well as to other human spaceflight activities. Russia’s dangerous and irresponsible behavior jeopardizes the long-term sustainability of outer space and clearly demonstrates that Russia’s claims of opposing the weaponization of space are disingenuous and hypocritical. The United States will work with our allies and respond to Russia’s irresponsible act.”\n\nHe estimated “trackable” pieces of debris to be “at least somewhat sizable.”\n\nWhen asked about what options the U.S. might have to respond, Price said that aside from condemning the attack, he didn’t want “to get ahead of where we are,” and he mentioned that the department doesn’t always “telegraph specific measures.”\n\nPentagon Press Secretary John F. Kirby told reporters Nov. 15 that Russia had not notified the U.S. of the test in advance, which according to reports forced astronauts on the International Space Station to take shelter in return ships.\n\nU.S. Space Command acknowledged in an earlier statement that it was aware of “a debris-generating event in outer space” and said it would “continue to ensure all space-faring nations have the information necessary to maneuver satellites if impacted.”\n\n“We are also in the process of working with the interagency, including the State Department and NASA, concerning these reports and will provide an update in the near future,” according to the command.\n\nIn a later statement from the command, the debris “will remain in orbit for years and potentially for decades.”\n\nA Nov. 15 launch window, an overhead pass of the nonworking signals intelligence satellite Cosmos-1408 within the window, the periodically coinciding orbits of the ISS and satellite, and similar periodic warnings reportedly given to the ISS crew, seemed to confirm the theory as the story developed.\n\nAstrophysicist Jonathan McDowell of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, who is widely followed for his expertise tracking and cataloging space launches and objects in Earth orbit, predicted that the full extent of such a debris field wouldn’t be known for a long time:\n\n“I would expect thousands of pieces of cataloged debris from a satellite the size of [Cosmos 1408] … However, it may take days to weeks for the first debris objects to be cataloged and years [for] them all to be located,” McDowell tweeted.\n\nOnly a few days earlier, the ISS crew had to maneuver out of the way of a piece of debris left over from China’s 2007 ASAT test.\n\nThe report cites “strong evidence that Russia has embarked on a set of programs since 2010 to regain many of its Cold War-era counterspace capabilities.” The report acknowledged what appeared to be a new direct-ascent ASAT program, stating that Russia “does not appear to have the capability to threaten targets beyond [low Earth orbit]”—such as medium Earth orbit, the home of GPS satellites. The report assesses Russia as “highly motivated to continue development efforts.”\n\nU.S. Space Command declared events in 2020 to be tests of Russian ASAT systems, including a co-orbital maneuver between two satellites and another rocket launch. The U.S. also declared that a Chinese rocket launch in 2014 was an anti-satellite test, but the foundation said, “Very little information is available in the public record about this launch, other than that it occurred, remained suborbital, and does not appear to have had a clearly evident target.”\n\nIndia destroyed one of its own satellites in an ASAT test in 2019. The Air Force said at the time that it was tracking about 270 pieces of debris from India’s test.\n\nThe U.S. destroyed a satellite in 1985, before many satellites were in orbit, by launching a missile from an F-15A. The report points out that today, the U.S.’s midcourse missile defenses have inherent anti-satellite capabilities—the system may even be more successful at targeting a satellite in a predictable orbit, simply by virtue of it being predictable, than one on a ballistic trajectory.\n\nThe U.N.’s resolution to address norms of space behavior by creating an open-ended working group passed its First Committee by a vote of 163-8. China, Cuba, Iran, Nicaragua, North Korea, Syria, and Venezuela joined Russia in opposing the idea.\n\nMeanwhile, a group of experts from academia and think tanks, along with former diplomats and government officials, have signed an open letter, first published in September, calling for a limited-scope treaty to ban kinetic anti-satellite weapon tests.\n\nEditor’s note: This story was updated at 5:14 p.m. Eastern time to include U.S. Space Command’s expectation that new debris will pose a threat for years to come."

"MAYA WILSON AUTZEN interrogates the aetiology of the fallen woman.\n\nThe Book of Genesis provides not only the origin story of the Christian world but also a foundation for numerous literary works throughout history. From Eve’s transgression in Genesis emerged the condemned figure of the ‘fallen woman’, a character type which has pervaded literature ever since. Chapter two of Genesis presents God’s creation of the Garden of Eden, but by the third chapter, we witness Adam and Eve’s ejection from this paradise. Seduced by the legged serpent, Eve eats the forbidden fruit– thus sparking centuries of literature representing and reimagining a prelapsarian world and subsequent fall. Whilst the language of the Bible is mostly implicit, it seems unequivocal that Eve is to blame for the transgression. This idea is echoed in Milton’s Paradise Lost, where she is explicitly blamed for the fall of mankind. Milton’s satanic snake persuades Eve that the fruit is ‘pleasant to the eyes’, and ‘desirable to make one wise.’ The adjectives ‘pleasant’ and ‘desirable’ seem sensually loaded; this forbidden knowledge which Eve acquires has come to be synonymous with transgression and experience, typically of a sexually deviant kind. When God discovers man’s treachery, he turns to Eve and asks, ‘What is this you have done?’ If Eve’s crime is succumbing to temptation and gaining forbidden knowledge, and God is her judge, then her punishment is eternal submission to man:\n\nIn pain you shall bring forth children;\n\nYour desire shall be for your husband,\n\nAnd he shall rule over you.\n\nEve’s damning sentence is echoed in the treatment of women throughout literature and history, and this transgression has since been translated into a sexual fall. In art, as well as in literature, Eve is portrayed as a figure of sexuality and sin by aligning her with the serpent. The Tree of Death and Life is an illustration from a 15th-century prayer book, depicting Mary and Eve as the antithesis of each other, with Eve naked and taking fruit from the mouth of the serpent. In Hendrick Goltzius’ painting The Fall of Man, Eve actively seduces Adam into rebelling against God’s wishes, and in Hans Balding Grien’s Eve, the Serpent and Death, she is presented as joyfully watching the serpent attack Adam. Eve and Mary are repeatedly employed as a binary for the presentation of women; in Paolo di Giovanni Fei’s Madonna and the Child Enthroned, Mary holds the baby Jesus on her lap, whilst Eve lies underneath next to a serpent. The caption reads: ‘the first woman brought death and sin into the world, but her counterpart Mary brings life and salvation for all.’ Mary and Eve are pitted against each other as the virginal ideal versus the sexually transgressed fallen woman.\n\nFrom St. Augustine to Emilia Lanier, writers and artists since the Middle Ages meditated on Eve’s role in the fall, but it was Milton who gave interiority to the character of Eve. In 1667, Milton took the Genesis story and turned it into an epic tale of obedience, power, tyranny and rebellion. Paradise Lost presents a heavily politicised and gendered exploration of ‘man’s first disobedience’, which seems to place the blame more expressly on the figure of Eve than previous explorations. The Biblical serpent becomes the figure of Satan, and the image of Eve is deeply sensualised, as her hair is depicted as ‘Dishevell’d…in wanton ringlets.’ Even though she is coy and submissive, her hair suggests she is problematic: Eve’s ‘wanton ringlets’ parallel the coils of the serpent, and as in much of the art world, she is distinctly aligned with the snake. This epic poem engages with obedience, politics and sex, and the figure of Eve comes to represent a gendered version of the fall. For Milton, Eve is more susceptible to Satan because she is intellectually inferior to Adam. Milton says it is ‘too easy’ for Satan to whisper in her ear; does this mean she is more vulnerable because of an intellectual inferiority, or because she is ambitious and rebellious? In comparison to Adam, Eve has a greater desire for autonomy, freedom and knowledge, and perhaps this is the ‘fatal flaw’ which leads to her downfall. Once she has succumbed to temptation and eaten the fruit, she persuades Adam to do the same, who is ‘fondly overcome with female charm.’ Clearly, she has acted upon Adam, rather than the choice being purely his; her crime is more insidious and perverse because she has corrupted man. Ultimately, Genesis sparks a conversation continued by Milton– one that revolves around women’s capacity to tempt and be tempted, and thus the figure of Eve lives on in reincarnations of the female fall throughout literature.\n\nThe Victorian era saw an intense preoccupation with the fallen woman in literature, and likely owes its prevalence to the conservative ideology of the 19th-Century. Gaskell, Rosetti, Dickens, Tennyson and Brontë all negotiate fallen female sexuality and subversive femininity. Bram Stoker’s Dracula sees the inevitable fall of Lucy, whose vanity and desire to marry all three of her suitors (as opposed to choosing one) is classed as sexual transgression and foreshadows her eventual death. Christina Rossetti explicitly explores the punishment of the first woman in her poem, Eve, which laments the eternal retribution paid by women for Eve’s plucking ‘the bitterest fruit’.\n\nTwo Victorian authors in particular despair of the plight of the fallen woman: George Eliot and Thomas Hardy. They both engage with Milton’s exploration of the fall, and the gendered connotations of temptation and transgression, perhaps to expose the misogyny surrounding female sexuality. Hardy prefaces Tess of the d’Urbervilles with this potent, loaded idea of innocence and the loss of it through his subtitle, A Pure Woman Faithfully Presented. Tess of the D’Urbervilles presents the tragic tale of Tess Durbeyfield, a young girl who is elevated to high society because of a distant family link. She meets Alec D’Urberville, the antagonist of the novel and a character that can be aligned with the serpent from the Bible and Satan from Paradise Lost. Their encounter and his subsequent sexual violation of her is the root of Tess’ downfall. Critics have long debated Tess’ complicity in the so-called ‘rape seduction’ scene, despite her obvious lack of consciousness. Either way, this sexual transgression leads to Tess’ fall from grace, ultimately triggering the tragic sequence of events which follow. The title of the volume following her sexual aberration is entitled A Maiden No More, encapsulating the fact that she has been rendered impure through sex.\n\nGeorge Eliot also presents the tales of fallen women in her novels The Mill on the Floss and Adam Bede. Critics have compared Hetty’s transgressions in Adam Bede to that of Milton’s Eve due to their sexual nature; this is particularly prominent in Eliot’s depiction of Hetty gathering apples, in what can only be a deliberate allusion toEden’s forbidden fruit. The Mill on the Floss ultimately ends with protagonist Maggie Tulliver’s demise, closing with a Biblical flood that is reminiscent of God’s punishing humanity in the Old Testament. It is a perverse but fitting end for Maggie, who has digressed by eloping with a man her family did not approve of. The Miltonic resonances in Eliot’s texts in particular seem contradictory to her feminist writings, as Paradise Lost presents an underlying narrative of misogyny. Perhaps writers such as Eliot and Hardy use the themes explored in Milton’s epic to interrogate contemporary issues of female submission and sexuality.\n\nAnd thus, the plight of woman and the strict sexual codes she has had to live by has been perpetuated by certain Biblical passages, and those who use it as a vehicle for female submission. The figure of Eve is echoed and replicated countless times over, reflected in the women portrayed as temptresses, seducers, harlots or whores. It is reflected in the portrayals of witches and prostitutes, the women abused and blamed, and the women reduced to mothers and wives. Readings of the original Eve have been translated and twisted into a figure of sin and fallen sexuality, thus commencing the enduring and aggregate trial of Eve, from which women have still not been acquitted."

"As Catching Bullets testifies, when it comes to covering 007 scores and songs this Bond writer is more anti than a bunch of SPECTRE agents at a night of Tosca. Big name orchestras, West End vocalists and even Dame Bond Sound herself Ms Shirley Bassey have sometimes laboured to recite Bond songs that are not theirs to begin with. With larger-than-life brass, abundant strings and volcano sized vocals, it is about both the devil and the detail – and it is notoriously hard to get right. Office party Bond gimmicks and cruise ship brass are standard victims in the off-screen world of Bond music.\n\nBut that is no longer the case. Rather than murdered standards, there is now a new standard-bearer when it comes to celebrating that Bond sound. And they are called Q The Music. Having missed the invite boat on numerous occasions to catch one of their shows, this 007 fan had only ever heard them from afar before. But thanks to the persistence of Q The Music’s manager and uber-Bond music sage Warren Ringham, this Bond fan finally danced into the musical fire and was mightily shaken and – yep, you got it.",
null,
"‘You’ll never know how I watched you from the shadows as a child‘ – Q The Music’s Kerry Schultz flanked by the band and some killer lighting.\n\nA hot ticket on the international cabaret circuit and the musical focus of many an exclusive party or celebration across the globe, 2018 sees Q The Music also continue to bring their shows, sounds and sparkle to British venues and Bond fans like themselves. With compering duties ably handled by The Spy Who Loved Me‘s Caroline Munro (alternating performances with Live and Let Die‘s Madeleine Smith), Q The Music’s repertoire is a veritable playlist of Bond’s best and most familiar anthems. Starting with 1962’s Dr. No and taking that chronological baton forward through the best of John Barry, Don Black, Marvin Hamlisch, David Arnold, Bill Conti, George Martin, Hal David, Bono and The Edge, Leslie Bricusse, Lionel Bart, Paul Epworth, Sam Smith, Tim Rice, Chris Cornell and Anthony Newley – Q The Music remind of the grand and ongoing project that is the Bond sound.\n\nJust like Bond movies are ultimately tailored beasts of the big auditorium. So too is the Bond music. Ringham and his fellow Q agents of music not only remind of the rich legacy of 007’s various sounds, they know how they were created, structured and performed. The brass DNA of Bond particularly is joyously administered on stage – with Ringham and fellow musicians stepping up to the mics to honour those notes, musical punctuation and fan-knowing riffs that are the heart and soul of many a Bond cue. Under Ringham’s trumpet (and totally honouring Bond trumpet legend Derek Watkins), that early Sixties John Barry sound comes blaringly alive to demonstrate the orchestral underpinning that Barry brass was and still very much is. And this fan was most curious to finally note the power and might of the drums in a Bond cue. These songs are made in the percussion as much as the strings and brass.",
null,
"But the legacy of the Bond sound is also those vocals – those trapped bird laments and survival anthems that are the life and soul of 007 onscreen. In following Bassey, Munro, Jones, Sinatra, McCartney, Armstrong, Lulu, Simon, Coolidge, Easton, Cornell and the popsters Duran Duran, A-Ha, Jack White and Alicia Keys, Adele and Sam Smith – Q The Music’s biggest challenge is to render fresh life to songs whose cultural reach stretches way beyond the movies they come from. Cue Kerry Schultz and Matt Walker’s brave steps forward to take the mic. The tendency is always to mimic, to Bassey those wrists and inflections and Tom Jones the back end off those masculine high notes. Yet, Schultz particularly breathes different life and fresh intonations into those well-trodden, but precarious numbers. Walker on the other hand brings that other era Matt Munro quality – something that lends itself rather endearingly to the male soloist sounds of From Russia With Love and Only Myself to Blame. To not slip once or get out of your depth faster than a Lotus Esprit on a Sardinian beach is a massive achievement when performing the Bond sound. And when two performers bring those 007 classics to life with chronological aplomb you unexpectedly get a brilliant lesson in the shifting history of pop, its vocal timelines, how the beats of a Bond lyrics have evolved and the full aural history of a franchise. Often faster and way more intricate than many of us realise, seeing these works live is where their (and the band’s) skills, penmanship and sense of production truly shine. And this is an ever shifting programme – with new additions, surprises and musical detours all Bond music fans will appreciate. Q The Music know the quirks, guilty pleasures and unchecked classics of the Bond sound. The encore we experienced of KD Lang’s Surrender was particularly slick and a Roger Moore tribute was from the heart. We’ll forgive them for not including a three hour tribute to A View to a Kill. Maybe next time.",
null,
"‘I know the player with the slick trigger finger‘ – Kerry Schulz and Q The Music’s Jon Wright.\n\nBut Q The Music do not just perform the works with the requisite bombast and blare. They know the value of keeping that Barry bongo sound in the early works, the soaring brass, midnight glamour and Moogs of the late Sixties, the funk-ridden stops and reggae starts of the early Seventies, of upping and stretching the disco synths of Bond’ 77, the sax and violins of the early Eighties romantic Bond and the West End meets Benny & Bjorn affectations of All Time High, the U-turn electronica and guitars of A View to A Kill and the new era Oscar-baiting richness of Chris Cornell, Adele, and Sam Smith. It is the ensemble’s commitment to musical detail that marks them above and beyond Bond covers. Those Barry quirks, those musical turns of phrase, the playfulness, the sexually charged riffs, the sound of a genre… Q The Music have mastered it.\n\nThe standing Double-Ovation was deserved.\n\nMany thanks to Warren Ringham, Caroline Munro and the entire Q The Music Band team.\n\nCheck out Q The Music, sign up to be an email friend for discounts and all news and updates, and just check out their videos."

"-\nInterview by Jordan Kirkland: Live & Listen\n-\nPhoto by James Champion\n-\nIf you're a music lover in Alabama, you've more than likely heard about an amazing grassroots festival known as CukoRakko Music & Arts Festival. Founded in 2014, the festival has been held twice a year at Horse Pens 40 in Steele, AL. As we prepare for another unforgettable CukoRakko weekend on October 5th - 7th, we're sitting down and getting to know a few of the performers on the 2018 Fall Festival lineup. For our thirdinstallment, we caught up with Lamont Landers, front man of one of Alabama's hottest acts: Lamont Landers Band. You can catch Lamont and company kicking things off on Saturday, October 6th. See below for the full interview, as well as video footage of the band performing their tune \"Into the Fold.\"\n-\n\nClick Here: Purchase Tickets to CukoRakko Music & Arts Festival\n-\nLamont Landers Band got rolling back in 2014, correct? Tell me about how this thing came together.\n-\nLamont: Yes sir. Back in 2014, most of us we're going to the University of Alabama. A mutual musician friend of Kevin (Canada) and mine had asked me if I would be cool with him putting a band together, and of course, I jumped at the chance. He got Kevin on a gig and since then, other members have came and gone, but Kevin was day one. Kevin knew our drummer Bowen (Robertson), and I met him out and about playing around Tuscaloosa.\n-\nWe stayed there for a couple of years; playing every bar in town, I moved to North Alabama...eventually landing in Huntsville. Kevin moved to Decatur. Bowen moved to Nashville. Somewhere along the way, we met the final piece of our band, the glue, the x factor: Jaraven Hill, our bass player.\n-\nI see you guys are from Decatur. North Alabama has certainly been known for it's musical roots. How much of an impact did the whole Shoals scene make on you as a young musician?\n-\nLamont: The Shoals had an indirect influence for sure. The music that came out of that area and the impact it had has resonated with me my entire life. It certainly made the dream of having an impact on the world through music, even while being from Alabama, seem entirely possible.\n-\nThe band recently made a big splash on 'Showtime at the Apollo'. How did you find yourselves in that position? What type of impact has this exposure given the band?\n-\nLamont: It was a surreal thing. It all happened through e-mails and stuff behind the scenes that led to us getting picked to be a part of it. It has provided us with some level of credibility, in the sense that if you can play the Apollo Theatre and walk away unscathed, then you can play just about anywhere in the world.\n-",
null,
"We're living in a much different musical era these days. Things have changed quite a bit since we were kids. Tell me about the advantages and challenges this presents to a young, up-and-coming act.\n-\nLamont: You're 100% right. Times have changed. I sometimes feel like I was born in the gap between generations as far as the music business is concerned. The advantages are: you have every tool at your disposal to try to make it, the business is decentralized, and if you can make it on your own, you hold all of the leverage.\n-\nThe disadvantage is that when everyone is making noise, literally and figuratively, it's hard to filter through that. There are no barriers to entry now. You don't have to be a musician to be a \"musician.\" Sometimes all it takes are streams of consciousness or a slew of disingenuous Instagram posts and, you'll be lauded as some visionary.\n-\nThis was supposed to have a point, oh yeah, to the kids who are up and coming. Just stay true to yourself, play the game the way you want to play it, and if you make it you make it. If you don't, you can at least say you really lived life and had fun doing it.\n-\nWhat's on the horizon for the band as you look towards closing out 2018?\n-\nLamont: The good stuff. We are finally releasing our debut album, by the end of November at the latest. We are extremely proud of it. It's been a labor of love, and I think displays our growth as a band over these last four years.\n-\nYou'll be performing on Saturday, October 6th at CukoRakko Music & Arts Festival. What can attendees expect from you guys?\n-\nLamont: Attendees can expect some of the finest funk & soul music in Alabama, paired with a dash of tasteful musicianship. They should expect a good time.\n-\nClick Here: Purchase Tickets to CukoRakko Music & Arts Festival\n9\nWatch Lamont Landers Band perform \"Into the Fold\" here:\n-\n+1"

"A Closer Look and Installation\n\nThe Scythe Kama Meter is extremely well constructed. Unlike many other controllers out there that feel extremely plasticy and some-what fragile, the Kama Meter simply oozes durability.",
null,
"You can see from the above image just how well constructed the Kama Meter is. The electrolytic capacitors on the green pcb seem to be of a very high quality and the other various components equally so. There were no clear markings on the capacitors as to who the manufacturer was, so I have refrained from including a supporting image.\n\nAll of the 3-pin fan headers are clearly marked and the power connector is essentially a larger floppy connecter to prevent confusion. For a small and relatively crowded piece of real-estate, the Kama Meter is extremely well laid out and neat. Even the potentiometer (pots) wiring has received the same amount of care and attention, which adds to the overall build quality of this unit. Only the thermal connectors (to the right of the fan headers) are not labeled explicitly, which I have yet to work out why.",
null,
null,
"The images above illustrate the Scythe Kama Meter's audio controller blanking plate. It has In / Out female sockets to accept the audio out plug coming straight from your motherboard. The 4 pins that you can see on the rear of the card connect directly to the Kama Meter itself and allows for volume adjustment from the front of the unit.\nInstallation\n\nInstallation of the Scythe Kama Meter is an absolute breeze and requires only 4 small screws to fasten it into one of your drive bays. I do have one area to pick here though! In this day and age where end-users and enthusiasts alike are increasingly using case windows to show off their hardware, it would be nice to see a little sleeving on the extension cables instead of the usual yellow/red and black. The last thing 'bling' fanatics would really want is the additional wiring which would stick out like a sore thumb. Admittedly it is a small gripe, but with increasing numbers of fan manufacturers sleeving their cables we have grown to expect a little extra. Plus it makes the product look finished.\n\nI have taken the liberty of not including an image of the installed audio controller in my review setup as I have a rear mounted radiator that won't permit a clean shot worthy of being included in the review. I have however included a shot from my aircooled AMD case which is a little less cluttered at the rear (so you get the idea). If you use onboard sound then you may find this feature useful for adjusting the volume of your music or gaming. But with the majority of people chosing to use a dedicated sound card, the audio controller will not be utilised and would simply provide additional case clutter.",

"The Scythe Kama Meter looks right at home in the front of my PC don't you think? And the black faceplate matches reasonably well with the matt-black finish on the drive covers.",
null,
"Firing up my PC I was greeted with a vibrant display of colours thanks to the Kama Meter's auto colour change mode.",
null,
"The display of colours avaible with the Kama Meter are as follows - Blue, Purple, Sapphire, Green, Orange-Green, Red and Violet. I have included an image which illustrates perfectly what information the Scythe Kama Meter will report back to you - the owner.\n\nYou can see from the above image just how much monitoring information the Kama Meter provides, and the interface is very clean and uncluttered.\n\nFragTek\nw00tski, thanks for finishing this up for me mate, appreciate it tons!!\n\ngoing to have a nice read on this now as i am looking at getting one myself."

"It goes without saying that I can be passionate in my views on film…with everything I care about, for that matter. Especially so with the love of my life and the mother of my children. That my first two movie dates with my future bride involved decidedly heartfelt motion pictures, albeit across two very divergent genres, is simply the stuff of synchronicity. The first an underappreciated war film, the second a wonderful romantic comedy, aptly named Moonstruck, where…\n\n“…like the character of Ronnie in the film, I could feel the world around me shifting when I was with her this time.”\n\nHaving watched this again last week, once more with the person I fell in love with so long ago next to me, thought to give its relatively straightforward opening title sequence a long overdue appreciation.\n\nFirst off, any film that honestly displayed the twin towers of the World Trade Center is bound to gather thoughts and emotions of 9/11 and somewhat marked by the viewer in this day and age. No getting around it. That said, though, how could Norman Jewison and DP David Watkin not have opened Moonstruck with the two unspoken characters of the film: the moon and New York City. The former shining down on the latter’s distinctive skyline. Romance for most still one that involves a couple coming to an inevitable pairing.\n\nIn fact, one could see the eminent duo edifices as symbolic stand-ins for the lovers in the piece. More illustrative, after Cher’s and Nicolas Cage’s credits make their appearance against such a dramatic backdrop, the movie’s title (the only animated one of the entire sequence by the way) wriggled into view. Much like Loretta and Ronny writhing in and out of bed later, it gathered the eye and stirred something. Twosomes, one of the alluring aspects of the film and reflected throughout, emphasized in this opening scene.\n\nBesides, note how close one of those Os in the Moonstruck title is snuggled up next to the other, if you don’t believe me.\n\nFrom then onward, Watkin’s camera will unmistakably mark the route of another cold December day through a few of the landmarks and boroughs that distinguish NYC; coinciding with our heroine’s journey. Signified by her too young widowhood, “A bride without a head!”, living out of the rest of her life with her parents in Brooklyn’s Italian-American enclave of the late-’80s. The sequence visually linking The Met‘s preparations1 for the opening of Puccini’s La bohème to the reawakening of Loretta’s heart and prospects.\n\nWhile the credits themselves are staid compared to other more spectacular ones, they do their job as well as Loretta’s bookkeeping keeps her fellow Brooklynites heads above water. Efficiently weaving and foreshadowing elements that will bring the love of her life, “A wolf without a foot!”, into the picture. Part of what makes it all worth living, along with food and family. The credits culminating cleverly on the director’s, which centers on the gentleman in his final repose at the location our lead has been on her way to.\n\nIf all these film facets were by themselves, alone, Moonstruck‘s would have been a competent, if perhaps run-of-the-mill, titles sequence. Not the case here, I’d argue, as the Canadian filmmaker’s opening steadfastly held to the motion picture’s celebration of love, life, and food by means of its final and pitch perfect pairing. The entirety of this three-minute plus credits course, and what ultimately gave the cinematic progression its life blood of verve and passion, was the accompanying song, That’s Amore2.\n\nNo doubt about it.\n\n“Amore” is Italian for “Love”\n\nWasn’t even born when this number first charted in 1953, but still I could understand why it became a major hit and signature song of Dean Martin‘s. Composed by Harry Warren and Jack Brooks for the Martin and Lewis comedy, The Caddy (1953), its lyrics tailor-made for a love story such as this. A superb needle drop moment as it described love the way they do in southern Italy. Passion-filled, with Dino crooning the desire to his favorite traditional foods3, and moreover poking fun at the stereotypes prevalent back then4.\n\nA quirky romantic song sung with an engrained smoothness and warmth that remains palpable to this day, as does this marvelous match-up with the movie Moonstruck in every way imaginable."

"With the leak of Spotify’s contract with Sony last week, there’s a lot of attention on the streaming service right now. I’ll be taking a closer look at that contract over the next week, but for now I’ll focus on the fallout over the last week. In particular there seems to be a lot of renewed interest on the music space, more so than I’ve seen in a while. I think, though, that this has to do with a lot more than simply one contract between two companies; for the first time perhaps, the general public (including music producers, artists, and general music listeners) is aware of the kind of deals being struck behind the scenes.",
null,
"Even as Spotify soars in newer valuations that have the company somewhere in the $8B range, yesterday’s leak shows that such a valuation may in fact be misleading—Spotify has to cough up around $43M just for licensing from Sony alone. How much do you think they need to cough up for the other two majors, Warner and Universal? Even if we snip off the extra $3-4M, and assume an upfront licensing fee of $40M from Sony—and then simply assume similar prices for Warner and Universal—then Spotify has already spent $120M of investor money. And that’s just for the privilege of having access to the major labels’ stable of artists.\n\nAlso, don’t forget that’s before royalties and any other metrics that Spotify has to hit. Therefore it’s more like $43M upfront for the privilege to pay more later on; it’s not a one-and-done purchase. And most unfortunate for Spotify, this latter number is also predicated on how an artist performs in popularity, something they have essentially no control over.\n\nI’m not going to rewrite Micah Singleton‘s article, but I will draw on a number of points he highlighted and what they mean in reality. There are numerous points of importance, but these are the ones I think the general public really needs to be apprised of. Though the contract has since been removed, we got the basic gist:\n\nThere are numerous other points worth discussing, but these are some of the major ones that discussions of the music industry revolve around. Though arguably a major embarrassment for Sony and Spotify, the leaking of the contract between the two really shines a bright light on what goes on behind the scenes. It clarifies that what happens behind the curtain affects every type of artist, and underscores why more transparency and reform is needed in the music industry. And it highlights something else: the music industry is not dead and foregone. We’re now right on the precipice of a whole new type of music industry that’s taking shape every day. Those who accept and embrace the new dynamics will be the ones who benefit most from them when they inevitably come.\n\nThanks to Shelley Marx for reading early drafts of this.\n\n1 thought on “Spotify’s Sony Contract: What It Means for Everyone”"

"The Pietermaritzburg regional court heard yesterday that cigarettes found at premises rented by a man, now standing trial, did not have the SA diamond stamp.\n\nWarrant officer Barend Pienaar said this meant tax was not paid on them.\n\nHe was testifying in the trial of Ismail Adam Bhiku (27), who is charged with being in possession of illicit goods, for which he did not pay over R3 million tax to SARS.\n\nPienaar said Bhiku was shown a search warrant before police searched the unit, adding that photographs were taken of the unit before and after the officers entered it. Pienaar said that when the cigarette boxes were inspected, the tar and nicotine content depicted on the boxes was higher than what is allowed in South Africa.\n\nBhiku denies the allegations. He said he had sublet the unit where the first batch of cigarettes was found.\n\nHe also said that the police search warrant issued did not comply with the legal standards set out in the law. Thus, any item found is inadmissible in legal proceedings.\n\nBhiku also said that the unit was searched in his absence and that the warrant was issued on information that was not verified or correct.\n\nOf his home being searched, Bhiku said that police came to the premises, which he owns with someone else, on the pretext of serving a summons on him. A search warrant was produced and the premises were searched.\n\nHe said the search warrant also did not have any legal basis. It should have had an accompanying affidavit to allow him the opportunity to challenge or dispute it.",

"Volvo Car Australia’s joint ocean conservation project in Sydney Harbour is literally coming to life 6 months after its installation.\nMore than 50 marine species have been observed thriving on and around Volvo’s Living Seawall, about 6 months after the ocean conservation project was started in Sydney Harbour.\nThe Living Seawall is a joint prototype project between Volvo Car Australia, the Sydney Institute of Marine Science, Reef Design Lab and North Sydney Council. It was created in June 2018, using 50 special tiles to encourage and support native marine biodiversity.\nThe 55cmx55cm tiles are constructed from concrete and made to mimic the root structure of the native mango tree – with tiny alcoves etched into the tile to give fish, filter-feeding organisms and other species a place to live and flourish just as they would in a natural habitat.\nA first study conducted by the Sydney Institute of Marine Science reveals a promising variety of native life on and around the Seawall.\nSessile (permanently attached) species include algae (seaweed), mussels, barnacles, tube worms, sponges and bryozoans.",

"Above: Close-up of Living Seawall tile that helps a variety of marine species live and thrive just as they would in a natural habitat.\n\n\nMobile species include snails, limpets, chitons and small crustaceans such as isopods and amphipods.\nSpecies such as mussels are important filter feeders that can help improve water quality by filtering out particulate matter or contaminants. The hope is that they will eventually be joined by other effective filter feeders such as oysters.\nImproved water quality is one of the aims of the Living Seawall at Milsons Point over the next 20 years, helping to combat urbanisation and pollution as well as supporting native marine biodiversity.\nAbout 50 per cent of Sydney Harbour is covered by artificial structures, including seawalls. Instead of tearing down seawalls, Volvo Cars and its project partners have taken a more creative approach with the Living Seawall.\n“Solving environmental issues requires modern, divergent thinking,” says Volvo Car Australia managing director Nick Connor “This sort of thinking isn’t just what we do, it’s part of who we are.”\nVolvo Cars is committed to building a sustainable future.

"Carl Jung believed that our psyche (that is our intangible self) is made up of a conscious (our ego) and an unconscious mind (our creative self). He suggested that in order for us to become more aware of who and what we are at different levels we need to be encouraged to engage in a deeper interaction between our Ego and our Creative Self. This he believed would enable us to become more ‘whole’.\n\nJung promoted a process of transformation known as Individuation. Through the individuation process Jung believed that we as human beings could with the use of imagery engage in the development of an essential therapeutic dialogue with our unconscious minds. This he suggested would allow us to develop our individual psychological personality enabling us to be differentiated from other human beings.\n\nThe concept of active imagination was developed by Jung between 1913 and 1916. It has been described as a kind of waking dream or dreamlike state that happens in the absence of sleep. When we enter into this state of mind we are able to observe our conscious thoughts and actions as well as being able to gain access to thoughts and feelings that are not normally accessible to our conscious minds. Jung believed that this meditative technique allows the contents of our unconscious minds to be translated into symbols that manifest themselves as a set of often fragmented and disassociated images, parts of pictures, narratives or separate thoughts and emotions. Recognising and acknowledging the importance of these symbols represents a key stage in building a bridge between our Ego and our Creative Self. If we willingly allow this process of individuation to occur we invite the symbols created by our active imagination to take shape and thereby become assimilated into our whole personality. Jung considered this a completely natural healthy development that has the capacity to create a holistic healing effect upon a person’s mental and physical state.\n\nAs we get older I believe many of us search for a deeper more intellectually meaningful understanding of life. For me the need for more personal individualised expression becomes more profound. I desire the means to tap into a more spiritual awareness that will allow the thoughts, feelings and emotions of my unconscious mind to come to the surface so that I may challenge some of the more preset/entrenched ideas and confusions that have been created by my ego.\n\nI feel that too many of us are all too readily and unquestionably conditioned by society to adopt what Jung regards as the persona-mask. For the sake of acceptance and approval we often play out or pretend ‘individuality’. According to Jung our persona mediates between our consciousness and the social community around us. It seeks to discover compromise so that we can find satisfaction in a belief that ‘we are as we are expected to be’. However, for some as we reach greater stages of maturity we become more aware that there is something missing, perhaps a deeper hidden part of ourselves that once exposed will help us to understand the true nature of ourselves.\n\nJungians would have us believe that these hidden elements of our collective unconscious include the Shadow; the wise old man, the anima; and the animus. If we invite and recognise the contributions of each of these opposite parts of the self, through their integration we should achieve greater balance.\n\nThe goal of active imagination by using visualisation is to facilitate the exploration of ourselves by engaging in deliberate concentration so as to release a spontaneous flow of metaphors. Jung believed that patients could use their active imagination to permit the thought-forms of the unconscious (inner self) to act out whatever images they wished to communicate. Jung referred to this process as ‘dreaming the dream onward’ as we adopt a way of freely associating from our original image, other images, thoughts and feelings as they arise.\n\nDuring the first stage it is important that we are relaxed and focused; using a ritual such as progressive relaxation or a meditative technique like observing a lit candle can help us to achieve a state of active imagination. The Conscious Ego must be made to stand aside so that our metaphors are allowed to flow freely without critical judgemental interference.\n\nJung wrote: “the creative aspect of the imagination frees us from our knowledge of the nothing but, and raises us to the state of one who plays.”\n\nIt was felt by Jungians that we need to develop the attitude of a child at play. This means taking play seriously which many adults unfortunately find difficult.\n\nOnce contact is made with our Inner Self during the second stage it is important that we notice and acknowledge what is being communicated. To assist this process a notebook or tape recorder could be used to capture the images, or fragments of images that are brought to the attention of our Consciousness. It is then essential to give an external form to these emerging metaphors.\n\nAs a powerful dream image is continued in our imagination we could use many different means to express its various dimensions. Our choice of medium could include: drawing; painting; clay modelling; poetry; story telling; dance; and or music. The medium that we choose should be dictated by whatever feels comfortable to us at the time. However, it is suggested that if we are particularly skilled at one type of medium, we should try to avoid this because skill relates more to ego control rather than the expression of the unconscious.\n\nIt is interesting to note that Jung was a great supporter of the application of Art as a therapeutic resource. He proposed that art could be used to alleviate or contain feelings of trauma, fear and anxiety and that it could also repair, restore and heal ill patients. Jung wrote: Art expression and images found in dreams could be helpful in recovering from trauma and emotional stress’.\n\nJung often drew, painted or made objects and constructions when he himself felt distressed.\n\nIn the third stage our Ego needs to be encouraged to recognise that the content released from our Unconscious must be treated with care and respect. It is important to form a creative relationship between the Ego and the Self in order to try to understand the complexity of the images that have been revealed. This is when symbols become transformed into signs from which we can make greater sense. In order for this to happen Jung insists that we must become fully participant. He says: ‘You yourself must enter into the process with your personal reactions…as if the drama being enacted before your eyes were real’.\n\nIn the fourth stage it is important that we do not continue to live unconsciously. We need to work with the meaning that has been revealed by our images so that we strive towards a deeper understanding of who we really are and what we can become.\n\nIt is important to acknowledge that the process of understanding the imagery of our inner self is highly complex. Understanding takes time and the images that are created are often complicated in multi-dimensional shapes. Meaningful understanding is not always instant and it is often necessary to revisit images over and over again before understanding becomes apparent.\n\nThere are a number of criticisms of the use of active imagination. Jung himself states: ‘The method is not entirely without danger, because it may carry the patient too far away from reality’.\n\nThe findings of post-Jungian Michael Fordham are very worrying. He suggests: ‘active imagination, as a transitional phenomenon …can be, and often is, both in adults and children put to nefarious purposes and promotes psychopathology’.\n\nIn the past I have had much experience of the use of imagery whilst working with children. Students who willingly participated in visualisation sessions often commented afterwards upon symbols that were revealed to them. One particular student felt that he was being given a very important message by someone whom he loved and respected. Acting as a neutral facilitator rather than someone who suggests potential meaning I asked him what he thought the symbols he was encountering meant. After a little time for reflection he said up to that point he felt selfish and that he had not been listening properly. He further commented that this made him feel guilty and sad. The session ended with him saying I feel that I need to do something positive like show this person that I really care and love them.\n\nAlmost all of the students who participated in these sessions emerged tired (perhaps from the depth of their focussed concentration) but they always stated that they felt refreshed and often enlightened. My only concern with these sessions was that I never really felt that there was sufficient time to fully explore the meaning of presenting images.\n\nIn conclusion there is sufficient research to suggest that if handled sensibly the use of imagery can be most beneficial. I particularly like the statement made by William James (1842 – 1910): ‘The greatest discovery of my generation is that human beings, by changing their inner attitudes of their minds can change the outer aspects of their lives’. I believe it is true that we can tap into the inner knowledge, insight and wisdom of our inner minds and once we have silenced the incessant chatter of our busy external minds we can listen to and receive very important insight from this most valuable source. I am still learning how I can tap into the messages that are coming from my own inner self. This is a fascinating journey as I explore what I consider the second part of my own life."

"Back in the Fall of 2005 I wrote a essay, published in the journal Logos (issue 4.4), entitled \"Torture in our Time.\" In it I laid out the historical evidence for the conclusion that torture rarely works. This position goes back at least to the Enlightenment when Cesare Beccaria wrote a famous pamphlet, \"On Crimes and Punishments\" (1764) in which he observed the obvious:\n\n\"The impression of pain, then, may increase to such a degree that, occupying the mind entirely, it will compel the sufferer to use the shortest method of freeing himself from torment....He will accuse himself of crimes of which he is innocent so that the very means employed to distinguish the innocent from the guilty will most effectually destroy all difference between them.\"\n\nAlong with false admissions of guilt, those under torture will tell their tormenter just about anything, regardless of truth and accuracy. Modern researchers, and even modern practitioners of interrogation, know this to be so. They have come to the same conclusion as Beccaria. Torture produces more false and fictional information than not.\n\nFor instance, Darius Rejali in his book Torture and Democracy (2009), tells us that \"the available evidence [against the efficacy of torture] is conclusive\" and alludes to the fact that, for 250 years, criminologists, and psychologists have been pointing this out. The ex-intelligence officer, Colonel John Rothrock, who headed a combat interrogation team in Vietnam, told the Washington Post in 2005 that, given the Vietnam experience, \"he doesn't know any professional intelligence officers of my generation who would think this [torture] is a good idea\" even in a so-called \"ticking bomb\" scenario. The inclusion of \"my generation\" in Rothrock's statement implies that each generation has to learn the truth about torture anew, over the wreckage of newly broken bodies.\n\nMore recently, in December 2012, the Senate Intelligence committee approved a report which, in some 6,000 pages, concludes that \"the harsh interrogation measures used by the CIA [that is the torture techniques allowed by the administration of George Bush Jr.] did not produce significant intelligence breakthroughs.\" This specifically includes the production of intelligence leading to the discovery of Osama bin Laden. Indeed, the report says that torture actually became \"counterproductive in the broader campaign against al-Qaeda.\" All this has led Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), the chairman of the Senate intelligence committee, to call Bush Jr.'s secret CIA prisons and use of torture, \"terrible mistakes.\"\n\nFor a certain subset of the population (and not just in the U.S.) these truths do not matter. This subset constitutes a modern warrior caste and their followers. The American sampling includes many (but not all) neoconservatives, classic tough-guys turned politicians, faux-realists, military professionals, and an ever-present small number of people who just like to hurt and humiliate others and find their way into professions that allow them to do so (often the actual torturers). For all these folks the evidence against torture appears counter-intuitive and just does not \"feel right.\"\n\nTherefore, intuitively, these skeptics feel more comfortable with another statement, that might be juxtaposed with Beccaria's above. This one was written by White House Counsel Alberto R. Gonzales, in a memorandum for President Bush on January 25, 2002:\n\n\"The nature of the new war places a high premium on...the ability to quickly obtain information from captured terrorists in order to avoid further atrocities against American civilians. In my judgment, this new paradigm renders obsolete Geneva's [the Geneva Convention Against Torture] strict limitations on questioning of enemy prisoners...\"\n\nCurrently, it is the Republican Party that harbors many of the skeptics who share this opinion about the efficacy of torture and the \"obsolete\" nature of the treaties (ratified by the United States) forbidding it. The Republicans on the Senate intelligence committee that issued the latest report proving torture's uselessness, even refused to participate in the report's investigatory process. For some of them this might have been the result of obeying their party's dictate to remain loyal to the discredited Bush administration. For others though, it was loyalty plus their belief (in the face of all the evidence to the contrary) that Bush was correct to send the CIA out into the world to cause unbearable pain and suffering. They believe such behavior materially contributed to \"making America safe.\"\n\nUnfortunately, there is a general tendency on the part of Americans to agree with the skeptics. And, this trend is about to be strengthened. There is now a movie, Zero Dark Thirty (the work of the Oscar-winning director Kathryn Bigelow) in U.S. theaters that will reinforce the erroneous view that torture works. Zero Dark Thirty purports to tell the story, based on \"first hand accounts,\" of the hunt for and killing of Osama Bin Laden. According to this film, torture formed a \"critical aspect of intelligence gathering\" process. There is good evidence that the U.S. government assisted in making the movie, if not in the actual writing of the script.\n\nIt would be nice if some talented director could make a movie, based on \"first hand accounts\" of the making of the Senate report on Bush-era torture. But that sort of movie will not be made because Washington has no desire to tie its hands in this regard. Nor will the truly accurate documentaries (see below) that do exist on the prison camp at Guantanamo Bay, or the now defunct hell-hole that was Abu Ghraib, get national distribution. However, we can expect many more films like Zero Dark Thirty. This is because the recent 2013 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) signed by President Obama makes legal direct government funding of propaganda aimed at the American population. Perhaps the U.S. government is about to buy its own back-lot in Hollywood.\n\nThere is a story about Abraham Lincoln that claims that every time he was confronted by someone extolling the benefits of slavery, he had a desire to see it (slavery) tried out on the one defending it. Torture can be approached the same way. Does President Bush Jr. and ex-counsel Alberto Gonzales think it is a vital part of America's defense? Do all those Republicans on the Senate intelligence committee have such faith in torture that they can dismiss out of hand 6,000 pages of contrary evidence? OK. Let's see torture tried out on these fellows and note whether they will confess to false reports about, say, their sex lives.\n\nJust wishful thinking. The torturers we are talking about are all past or present powerful government officials and their henchmen. Most of them will die in bed and maybe, someday, have their face put on a postage stamp. Their horrid deeds, already excused, will soon be forgotten. For what are crimes when committed by the average person, but vices when committed by the powerful (so said Benjamin Disraeli). Finally, it has been known for ages that, as the old Latin saying goes, \"in times of war the laws go silent.\"\n\nRelated Topic(s): Domestic Terrorism; Torture; Torture Memos, Add Tags\nAdd to My Group(s)\nGo To Commenting\nThe views expressed herein are the sole responsibility of the author and do not necessarily reflect those of this website or its editors."

"This book is the intellectual biography of a pioneer who has stood out in all the aspects in which the discipline of design is expressed: the production of industrial objects, the generation of theory and critique, and institutional construction. In all of them, he has fought a continuous battle which has converted him into one of the most influential authors in the broad fabric of Spanish design, and he has done so from silence.\n\nNorberto Chaves chooses to focus on André Ricard?s theoretical reflection, on being the least well-known and appreciated, but fundamental to understand his ethics of the role of design in society. Thus, through a careful rereading of his texts and long conversations with Ricard himself and with important figures who have dealt with him closely (such as Yves Zimmermann, Oriol Bohigas and Xavier Rubert de Ventós), gradually reveals the complexity of his writings on design and his validity beyond the fluctuations of fashion.\n\nMaybe the best synopsis of the book is offered by Miguel Milá: 'I really liked to see written in this book ideas of André's that I would have liked to have thought'."
