"One measure of success in politics is the degree enemies imitate you, even if done insincerely and without flattery. Insincere imitation has become the preserve of a whole panoply of Donald Trump’s critics stretching from the money, corporate side of the Democrats to the sandalled warriors who believe in environmental eschatology. Most importantly for Joe Biden and fellow travellers of the Donkey Party, they remain incapable and uninterested in identifying and confronting their devastating loss in 2016. There is only one program in the works, the mission that matters: removal and elimination. Get Trump out, and all will heal.\n\nThis makes political conversation insensible and torturously imbecilic. Trump’s wand waving has had such an impact on his opponents that they mimic, unconsciously, his own tropes. They ape and bark to his beat. They speak of conspiracy, exclaim and splutter about fakery. They talk of the improbability of reality. Trump, for instance, could not have actually contracted the novel coronavirus.\n\nSince October 2, Trump become the subject of eager medical experimentation. He has received an intravenous dose of the dual antibody REGN-COV2, a drug yet to satisfy all stages of approval. The combination features a B cell from a human who had recovered from a SARS-CoV-2 infection and yet another one of those heroic mice whose immune system was engineered to resemble the human immune system. “Experiments in both golden hamsters and rhesus macaques that were intentionally infected with SARS-CoV-2 showed the cocktail could reduce viral levels and disease pathology,” writes Jan Cohen in Science. Speculation (can it be anything else?) abounds as to whether Trump was also taking, as one of his physician’s claims, “zinc, vitamin D, famotidine, melatonin and daily aspirin”.\n\nMuch of this is of less interest to Trump sceptics than the fact that it is even taking place. They share, with mild discomfort, similar ground to the QAnon group, who impute to Trump a strategy to outwit the Democrats, who they claim operate a global human trafficking empire. While QAnon insist that Trump is playing the Democrats in pretending to have COVID-19, some liberals have also taken of the same sauce. Jon Ehrens, a producer for WHYY radio in Philadelphia, claimed that “90% of listener emails/comments are very insistent that the diagnosis is a lie.” Common conspiracy theories included “finding an excuse for why he will lose the election” to proving “that the coronavirus is no big deal.”\n\nThe president’s illness, when announced on October 2, did not merely issue an open invitation to conspiracy; it unleashed a tsunami of gloating enthusiasts. There were curses to enchant the polyglots. There were homicidal fantasies skipping along social media platforms. Within hours of the announcement, Merriam-Webster noted that searches for that supremely useful word “schadenfreude” had risen by 30,500 percent. Yolanda Pierce, dean of Howard University’s divinity school, refused to “perform false politeness in the presence of evil.”\n\nA good portion of the media stable long mocked by Trump for being the great news counterfeiters were themselves incapable of believing the president. They had become the ideologues of disbelief, the mirrors of the fake. “The sad truth is that we really can’t trust at face value what comes out of the White House on this,” political reporter Jonathan Karl explained on the ABC’s “The View”. Reporters “have to ask the questions” and would accordingly verify the information. (Good of Karl to state what should be the reporter’s natural mission.) “But there’s been so much misinformation that has gone out about the virus, about the pandemic, about things like voter suppression – it’s really hard to know what to believe.”\n\nAs for the general issue of verisimilitude, pity the doctors, as well, charged with such a mission as conveying a message both medically sound yet politically sanitised. Historically, such White House physicians are paid to diagnose the leader patient. The job prescription also entails a bit of mendacity, if required, prompting the rather cynical observation by Aaron Seth Kesselheim, professor of medicine at Harvard, that care for the US president has been marked, at stages, by “incompetence, secrecy and downright deception.”\n\nAuthor and Guardian columnist Simon Jenkins is even resigned on this score. “Doctors have never known how to handle sick leaders.” Trump’s situation, he is reminded, is much like that of the British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who also contracted the virus in March. The doctors initially claimed he was “just fine and cheerful”. “When this proved untrue he was said to be dying. Bulletins merged into bullshit. Nothing was believed. Johnson had to bitterly protest his health only this weekend.”\n\nIn lowering the tone of what was already the bankrupt political conversation of the republic, Trump also lowered the bar of believability. There is no higher plateau of political grace to seek. Everyone’s in for a mauling. We are in the gutter, and we are going to stay there, eyes averted, from the stars. And the truth."

"Former president, renowned scientist and Bharat Ratna APJ Abdul Kalam died on Monday after suffering a cardiac arrest. Tributes for the former president poured as the entire nation, saddened by his death, went into mourning and eminent people, from politicians to actors, expressed their grief.\n\nTellychakkar.com pays tribute to the missile man and talks to some TV stars on what they feel and think about him.\n\nWhat should be said about him, missile man, scientist, writer, most loved president, patriot who dreamt of making India a developed nation by 2020. He always maintained that he wanted to be remembered as a ‘Teacher’. So I would say Salaam to Kalam, our teacher and guiding light. You will live on in our hearts with gratitude. To sir with love, RIP.\n\nHe was one gem of a person. He was very positive and energetic. If your moral is down then his speech can easily boost you up. I have received an award and also had dinner with him. He was truly an inspiration for youth.

"MIAMI Beach City Commission has given the go-ahead to negotiate an interim agreement with the Alstom-led Greater Miami Transit Partners consortium, which has submitted the highest-ranking proposal for a light rail line in the city.",
null,
"Preliminary recommendations call for the construction of a loop serving South Beach, which would be built in two phases, each around 4km long. The first phase would run along 5th Street and Washington Avenue, while the second phase would continue the line along Alton Road and 17th Street. An additional loop along Dade Boulevard is also being evaluated.\n\nThe double-track line will run in dedicated transit lanes for its entire length and will be completely catenary free, with Alstom's ground-based APS technology being put forward for the electrification system.\n\nThe City of Miami Beach says both phases could be constructed concurrently, and a decision on how to proceed will be made following the conclusion of financial and technical analyses.\n\nPublic consultation began last month and environmental studies are due to be completed early next year."

"Recently, Italy‘s newly formed government has closed its ports to migrant ships. The new political atmosphere is run by the anti-establishment Five Star Movement (M5S) and the League party, known for its strong anti-immigration beliefs.\n\nIn particular, a rescue ship named Aquarius, which was carrying 629 rescued migrants on board from 26 countries in Africa, was denied entry into an Italian port on June 10. The ship was forced to stay out at sea until another European country, Spain, gave the ship access to its ports the next day.\n\nThe new Italian Interior Minister, Matteo Salvini, who is also the League’s leader, made the decision to close Italy’s ports. In the past, Salvini has called Sicily “the refugee camp of Europe,” and his actions reflect Italy’s struggle with the high numbers of refugees arriving each week. The Italian government wants Europe as a whole to play a larger role in accepting refugees.\n\nWhy Italy Has Closed its Ports\n\nSince 2013, 690,000 immigrants have arrived in Italy. While some may be legal, many are not and 500,000 of them still reside in Italy. Among them are denied asylum seekers and those who have overstayed their visa.\n\nIn 2017 alone, 120,000 migrants arrived and the Italian government has estimated that €4.2 billion is the cost of taking them in, roughly $4.9 billion. That figure is divided between caring for asylum seekers, who are generally not allowed to work, as well as paying for sea rescues and providing medical assistance. This is one of many contributing factors as to why Italy has closed its ports.\n\nIn 2017, Italy formed a deal with Libya to enforce Libya’s coastguard in order to keep migrant ships from entering Italy. Since the deal, in the first five months of 2018, the number of migrants reaching Italian ports has dropped to 13,808. This is down 84 percent compared to the same period of time in 2017.\n\nPart of Salvini’s campaign was to repatriate at least 500,000 migrants during his five-year term, as Italians have grown increasingly afraid of migrants and associate higher crime rates to the influx of migrants. Italy has closed its ports as a way to combat this sentiment.\n\nAs the nation has closed its ports, mayors across the south of Italy have spoken out against this decision and have pledged to open their ports to these rescue boats. However, without the direct support of the Italian coastguard, it is unlikely that much can be done.\n\nThis sentiment, however, gives hope to the changing attitudes toward helping these migrants. It demonstrates that opinions are changing and that people are more interested in saving the lives of refugees, rather than keeping them out.\n\nAs a response to Italy having closed its ports, European leaders and humanitarian groups have denounced this decision. The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees appealed to Italy and Malta, stating that issues such as these should be addressed after the rescue and that the lives of the migrants should have been put first. Furthermore, Spain and France have offered to help take in the migrants.\n\nAs a solution, the European Council President Donald Tusk has proposed regional disembarkment platforms outside of the European Union. This would allow a more manageable way to differentiate between economic migrants and migrants in need of protection. As a result, the strain would be taken off countries such as Italy and allow for a more efficient system, which would benefit E.U. countries, the migrants and public sentiment toward this issue."

"In the Autonomous Greenhouses International Challenge, multidisciplinary teams of computer scientists and horticultural experts are competing to improve the efficiency of vegetable production using sensors, data and artificial intelligence/machine learning. Grodan, one of the sponsors of this year’s competition, spoke to three members of Team Digilog, based in South Korea, to hear about their experiences so far.\n\nThe Autonomous Greenhouses International Challenge (AGIC), organised by Wageningen University & Research (WUR), is based on the underlying belief that artificial intelligence represents a significant opportunity to drive horticultural productivity. This will offer sustainability benefits in terms of reducing the use of resources and helping to secure an efficient supply of healthy vegetables to feed the growing world population. From the 21 multidisciplinary teams from around the world that took part in the AGIC’s pre-challenge hackathon in the Netherlands in September 2019, five made it through to the final event.\n\nOne of those teams is Digilog, almost all of whose 16 members are based in South Korea (with participants also in Belgium and Israel). The team is led by H.K. Suh, CTO and vice-president of A-Net in Seoul and assistant professor of agricultural engineering at Dong-A University, where he is specialised in robotics and automation in agriculture. “I did my PhD and postdoc at WUR, which is where I first found out about the challenge. I thought it was a fascinating idea. So when I started working at A-Net, I decided to organise a team,” he explains. “It wasn’t easy but eventually we found the right mix of software engineers, crops experts and hardware/software specialists. We chose the name Digilog to represent the fusion of ‘Digital’ and ‘Analog’: the new harmony in the upcoming era.”\n\nMultidisciplinary team\nA key member on the software side is JinHyung Cho, the CEO of a start-up company called ioCrops Inc., based in Seoul. “Our company was founded in August 2018 to set up a cloud-based data management software platform for precision agriculture in greenhouse cultivation,” says JinHyung. “The goal of the AGIC coincides with the goal of our company: to use data and a data-management platform to turn the autonomous greenhouse into a reality. We are currently collecting data from lots of growers in South Korea as the basis for our algorithms, so the AGIC is an excellent opportunity to test our software and all our sensors.” Another key member of Team Digilog is Hyeran Lee. She majored in horticulture and is now working at ioCrops as an agro-data analyst. “I met Suh while I was a graduate student at WUR. I’m really interested in how machine learning can be applied in crop cultivation which highly depends on human experiences, so I was delighted when he asked me to join the team,” she comments.\n\nPrecise control of the root zone\nAll teams in the AGIC have been given six months to produce a cherry tomato crop remotely. WUR is providing each multidisciplinary team with greenhouse space and controls, including equipment supplied by Grodan, at its agricultural research facility in the Dutch town of Bleiswijk. “In a greenhouse compartment of 96m2, we have an actual growing area of 76.8m2. The crop – a single tomato variety – was planted in mid-December 2019. Every team is using Grodan’s slabs as the substrate. In the past, I’ve worked with other types of rockwool and coco slabs, and there is a clear difference,” says JinHyung. “Grodan’s slabs have a very uniform quality and absorbability. This gives us much more precise control of the water content level and EC in the root zone, which is a big advantage for the roots and hence for plant health. Also, the slabs give off no dirt so the greenhouse stays nice and clean.”\n\n“The AGIC organisers have installed GroSens sensors to provide slab data to all the teams. In addition to that, we’ve installed our own sensors and some cameras too so we can see how the crops are growing,” he continues. “We’ve been gathering and analysing all sorts of data – not only about the greenhouse climate, such as temperature and relative humidity, but also about the plant profile, such as the plant height, how many leaves, how many fruits per truss, the stem thickness, and so on. We even have a sensor to measure the leaf temperature. All of this helps us to optimally control the inputs to achieve the desired plant profile.”\n\nMeaningful sensor data\nThe sensors and webcams gather the data and feed it to the servers on an almost continuous basis. “We access the data every morning. We check the irrigated water (l/m²) and drainage (l/m²) value to calculate the drainage percentage and then we also check the trend of the slab water content (from the Grodan sensor) and slab weight (from the ioCrops sensor) graph. We assess the difference between the minimum and maximum values of slab water content and slab weight and decide how to fine-tune our irrigation strategy – such as when to start and stop irrigation, the volume and duration of irrigation and how long to wait in between each irrigation session,” explains Hyeran.",
null,
"“Our own sensors measure the slab temperature and the slab EC, and detect the weight of the slab to indicate the water content,” she continues. “But this includes the weight of the plant, its foliage and fruits. That’s why GroSens is so useful. It is an FDR-based sensor to measure the electrical property of only the slab itself, and the distribution of the moisture in it. By taking the slab weight from our own sensors and combining that with the data from GroSens, we get an accurate and absolute picture. It’s not about just having more data, but rather about having more meaningful data.”\n\nOvercoming challenges\nFrom a software point of view, it has proved challenging to get the AI model working optimally within the project’s six-month time frame. “The aim of the AGIC is to encourage the use of artificial intelligence (AI), but the period is almost too short to achieve any significant results,” comments JinHyung. “AI algorithms have to be ‘trained’ based on real data to benefit from machine learning. We’re still fine-tuning our algorithm, and it’s getting better all the time, but we now only have a couple of months left until the challenge ends in June.”\n\nAnother challenge according to Suh is a physical one – but not because of the remoteness of the greenhouse: “Most of us are based in South Korea but not all in the same city, which can make it difficult to get the whole team together for meetings. Besides that, the AGIC is a side project for everyone, of course, alongside their ‘real’ jobs. That’s probably also the reason why we don’t have much contact with other teams – not because we don’t want to learn from one another, but simply because we’re all too busy!”",
null,
"A step closer to the autonomous greenhouse\nAlthough Team Digilog is currently not on track to win, as one of the only newcomers to the challenge this year the team’s results are certainly impressive. Hyeran: “We’ve already harvested a lot of tomatoes in our given circumstances, although we’re not allowed to reveal the exact amount until the end of the challenge. Also the brix value of our last harvest was pretty high and we’re very happy with that!”. Moreover, these three team members all regard the AGIC as an important step closer to the autonomous greenhouse. “To leverage the existing IT expertise in South Korea for the agricultural domain, I’m keen to create awareness that AI can be used for high-tech growing. Organising a challenge of this kind in Asia would be a good way to do that, so participating in the AGIC has given me useful experience,” comments Suh. “This challenge has given me a first taste of how AI can actually be applied in autonomous cultivation systems, and I’m looking forward to helping our company to further develop this,” says Hyeran. JinHyung agrees: “I regard the AGIC as just an appetiser for us. It has been a really good opportunity for us to combine data-driven production methods with real growing and to test how everything works in practice. This will help us all to pursue the ultimate aim: finding ways of applying the latest data management and analysis techniques to help growers become more efficient and hence more sustainable,” he concludes.\n\nMeeting the needs of a changing industry\n\nThe world of commercial strawberry growing is at a crossroads. Internal and external factors are pushing forward-looking growers like Genson to rethink their production practices, not least the substrate they use. In this context, a couple of years back Genson asked independent expert, Elke Schellekens from Floraison, to lead a series of trials testing different substrates, including Grodan stone wool. The trials are still running, but Elke took a moment out from her busy schedule to reflect with the people at Grodan who’ve been involved with the trials on progress to date.\n\nThe growing success of a happy company\n\nThe sharp rise in energy prices is forcing many growers to reduce their lighting, to turn down the thermostat a little and provide screening for longer. If irrigation and nutrient levels are not adjusted accordingly, this can have major consequences for the crop and the roots, warns cultivation advisor Jos Beerens from Grodan.\n\nPart II: Pyrgeometers and glass film technologies: innovations to support the transition to green energy in the greenhouse For the past years, two main challenges have been top of mind for greenhouse operators: labor (shortages and increasing costs) and the ever increasing costs of energy. Andrew Lee, Global Technical Knowledge Manager at Grodan and veteran in the horticultural business, sees these challenges not as limitations, but as important drivers for technological innovation in the sector. In the first part of this series, Lee dives into the latest tech solutions for challenge #2: the transition towards green energy in the greenhouse."

"‘Visiting the paint frame that first time had been like stepping back to another age, and Rex had suddenly seen the theatre not just as a building or a place, but also as a kind of machine for telling stories.’\n\nTony White’s novel opens with the police being summoned to the fictional ‘Royal Palace Theatre’ on Drury Lane. At the back of the theatre is the workshop containing the paint frame. White gives an evocative description of a tall, narrow space with skylights above, ‘workbenches laden with tins and rags and brushes of all shapes and sizes’, the paint-spattered radio permanently tuned to Radio 3, and the floor ‘a Jackson Pollock-like accretion of splashes and drips’. Most importantly, running down either side were the frames: ‘enormous wooden constructions that must each have weighed a couple of tons or more, grids of blackened and paint-spattered beams and struts across which would be stretched the gauzes themselves, ready for painting.’\n\nThe hero learns that with ‘a mere flick of the wrist’ the counterweighted frames can be raised or sent plummeting down into a deep slot in the floor. (Read a sample chapter here.)",
null,
"Tony White based his description on the paint frame at the Theatre Royal, one of just a handful of surviving examples of this technology.\n\nThe purpose-built scene-painting workshop in Walworth known as Harker’s Studios is named after Joseph Harker (1855-1927), one of the most important theatrical scene painters of his day, who made his reputation through his designs for Henry Irving’s productions at the Lyceum. Later, backcloths were painted here for many London theatre and opera companies. Designs by Rex Whistler and John Piper were painted at the studios; David Hockney painted a cloth for Glyndebourne Opera here. Below is a drawing by the playwright David Storey. It was the title page in the programme for his play In Celebration (1969) and was also used on the front cloth, painted by Harkers Studios.",
null,
"Until last year, Harkers Studio was home to Flints, the theatrical suppliers, with scenic artists using the workshop spaces above. Planning permission has been given to turn the listed building into flats and office space – a move opposed by the Walworth Society, the Victorian Society and the Theatres Trust. Scenic artists Grit Eckert and Sadeysa Greenaway-Bailey have been campaigning for it to remain in use, not only for its historical importance, but also to provide much-needed space for makers.\n\nA beautiful account by the ‘Gentle Author’ of a visit to Harkers, including photographs of the building and a short Pathé film of Joseph Harker at work, can be found here .",

"The Jocelyn Herbert Archive, now held the National Theatre Archive, is housed in the basement of the National Theatre Studio, itself converted from a purpose-built scenic workshop, the Old Vic Theatre Annex. The paint-frame and the machinery for its electric hoist system were dismantled when the building was converted into rehearsal rooms and offices, but the 1958 building is listed as the only architect-designed theatre workshop in Britain. The three-storey wall thickly covered in paint still runs through the centre of the building.\n\nAlthough some of Jocelyn Herbert’s designs were painted here, she originally trained in a different approach to scene-painting, with the painter and stage designer Vladimir Polunin (1880-1957). The ‘continental method’ of scene painting used the floor rather than a vertical paint frame. This horizontal method, says Polunin, allows for more variety in technique, ‘from the opaque colours of tempera and gouache to the transparent washes associated with water-colour’ without the risk of colour trickling down the canvas. It allows the artist to scan the whole canvas and work on any part of it without having to hoist and lower the frame. Polunin says that cloths painted by this method can be ‘folded like a pocket-handkerchief and dispatched all over the world in small cases’ whereas cloths painted on frames have thick priming and need to be rolled on tumblers to avoid cracking.",
null,
"The first half of Polunin’s 1927 book The Continental Method of Scene Painting gives practical advice about preparing the canvas, primer and pigment.\n\n‘In England drying takes much longer than on the Continent owing to the moisture in the air and the fireproofing in the canvas. In Paris a primed cloth will dry thoroughly in half a day in summer; in Monte Carlo in even less time. In England, during the winter period of fogs, a primed cloth may not dry for several days, hence heating and drying arrangements are necessary.’\n\nThe second half of the book reflects on Polunin’s experience painting scenery for Diaghilev and the Ballets Russes, working with Bakst, Matisse, Derain, Picasso and Braque. It’s a fascinating mixture of memoir, theatrical history and technical detail, and was reprinted by Dance Books in 1980.\n\nTwo friends of Jocelyn Herbert’s, who also studied with Polunin at the Slade, were the painters Annette Brinkworth and Mary Fedden. In an interview with Cathy Courtney, available on the British Library website, Mary talks about the ‘sparkling’, charismatic Polunin, and how they assisted him with the painting of a backcloth designed by Jacob Epstein.\n\nThe mask- and prop-maker Vicki Hallam, daughter of Annette Brinkworth, worked with Jocelyn Herbert on The Trackers of Oxyrhynchus. She recalled in an interview that its large papyrus backdrops were painted on the paint frame on The Cut. Jocelyn had painted an example for the scenic artists:\n\n‘She’d done the painting first and then sprayed it with spattering. They did it the other way round. I remember going to the paint frame with her at the studio, and she was wonderful, she said how beautiful it was, but… probably her mistake, but … could they do it with the painting first and the spraying second? And they were perfectly happy [to repaint it]. She did it in such a nice way that they were happy to do it. And it did make a difference, it was just a small thing. Jocelyn was a great diplomat.’\n\nVicki recalled the layout of the building when it contained workshops:\n\nAs you went in the front of the studio, there was a telephone desk, with all the plugs that you pull in and out: ‘just connecting’. And on my first day, Albert Finney opened the door for me, which was pretty amazing! You go down that corridor, there were the offices first, then there was Dominique’s room, the Head of Props, then the prop room. Beyond that was the armoury, which was at the end, Reg Amos was the armourer, and they made scabbards and swords and guns. Where the big rehearsal room is, that was the carpenters’ shop which always smelt of horse glue because the first thing they did every morning was to turn on the glue, in the corner as you went in the door. Above the offices was Ivan Alderman who was the head of wardrobe and his gang of people. Above that, was the paint frame, run by Leslie Woolnough, and she was great.\n\nWhen I brought my mum round to see where I worked, I showed her the paint frame and this amazing man came across: ‘Annette,’ he said, ‘What are you doing here?’ And he was a very old man called Roger Ramsdell who’d been painting when Mum was painting in the 40s, in the Old Vic! He was American and had been to America and worked on films and then came back.\n\nLeslie Woolnough painted sets for the 1958 production of Henry VIII at the Old Vic – at Harker Studios, according to The London Stage 1950-1959: A Calendar of Productions, Performers, and Personnel, J.P. Wearing (p. 570). This must have been just before the Old Vic Annex came into use, since it also dates from 1958.\n\nTours of the National Theatre Studio are usually held during Open House weekend, or if you’re lucky, you might get a glimpse of the paint-frame wall when visiting the NT archive.\n\n4 thoughts on “The paint frame and the floor”"

"When it arrived on my doorstep earlier this month, I felt like Christmas had arrived early. Every chance I get, I’m pulling out my tablet to play with a new app or just scroll through Pinterest and Twitter. The Internet is now at my fingertips! (That’s probably dangerous…)\n\nOne thing I really like about the Samsung Galaxy Tab S is the size. At 8.4 inches, it’s small enough to be easy to hold or to tuck into my purse or diaper bag. Yet the tablet is also big enough to make it easy to scroll through Pinterest or read my email. I also like how quickly it turns on; with a touch of a button, I can look up a recipe on Pinterest or search for the hours of a business I want to stop at.\n\nHow has my Samsung tablet been helping me?\n\nI received the Samsung Galaxy Tab S, stylus and power bank from Staples for the purposes of this review; all opinions expressed are my own.\n\nHoliday Baking with a Tablet\n\nI’ve been on Pinterest for a few years now. I have boards for baking and crafts and Christmas. But a lot of the great ideas I find there stay there because I don’t want to be running from my computer to my kitchen to do baking, or from my computer to my craft area to help the girls make something. Now with the tablet, turning those Pinterest ideas into reality is so much easier.\n\nLast week, I wanted to make a pumpkin cake to use up some frozen pumpkin before our move. I knew I’d found a recipe on Pinterest, so I turned on the tablet, opened the Pinterest app (LOVE it!), scrolled down to find the recipe, popped it open, zoomed in a bit to read it better, and started baking.\n\nDoing all that took about as long as it took you to read it—or about as long as it would have taken me to find the recipe in one of my cookbooks (but now I’ve got the gorgeous pictures on the blog to inspire me!). The cake, by the way, was a huge hit at my moms group.",

"Reading with a Tablet\n\nI am, you may have noticed, a voracious reader. The problem with going away on holidays is the stack of books I usually take with me. I like having at least one self-help book and several fiction books. No problem this year!\n\nWith the reading apps on my tablet, I’ve got an entire library at my fingertips. For years, I’ve been downloading free Kindle books which I haven’t read because I don’t like sitting at my computer to read my book. Well, now I can sit comfortably anywhere I want and still access all those books.\n\nWhen we drive back to Alberta in the winter, we stop periodically to check whether reports and let our families know we hadn’t slid into a ditch. Or when we’re traveling in a new city (like Vancouver), we use Google maps a lot.\n\nNow, checking either the map or the weather is so much quicker with the tablet. No more hauling a heavy laptop into the cafe and waiting for it to turn on (waiting… waiting… waiting…). I’ve got the tablet in my bag and I can probably find the weather and the directions before my husband has finished ordering our coffees.\n\nAnd so much more…\n\nThe Samsung Galaxy Tab S also has both a front and rear-facing camera. Like any digital camera, it has troubles with action shots (Jade just moves too fast!) but otherwise I was quite impressed. The rear camera is 8 megapixels and allows you to set the focal point. And I had a lot of fun with the photo editor:",

"That’s Jade playing at an indoor playground, where I recently met a friend of mine for coffee. Jade was, of course, going full-speed the entire time she was there, making it hard to get good pictures of her. The effects, frame and stickers were done entirely on the Tab; I uploaded it into PicMonkey merely to add my watermark and resize it for my blog. (As I write, Sunshine is editing a photo I took of her…)\n\nWhich brings me to the next point: kid-friendly. Not that I’ve really tested that feature yet (did I mention it’s MY toy?) but Sunshine has had her eye on it. I know there are quite a few educational apps I could download for the girls to play with, and I might do that before we take off to Alberta for Christmas. The tablet includes Kid-Mode, so I know that the girls will be safe while using it (and won’t mess it up!).\n\nStaples sent me a stylus and a TP-Link Power Bank along with the tablet. Both are super useful. I prefer the stylus to using my fingers on the screen, because then I’m not leaving fingerprints all over my device. (I’ve seen too many tablets that have half the screen covered with fingerprints where the owner was typing.) It’s also better for hitting smaller icons than my fingers (and it’s sleek and silver).\n\nAnd while the Tab has a fairly long battery life, it’s nice to know that I can take the Power Bank along with me and don’t have to worry about finding a plug-in to recharge the batteries.\n\nOverall, I’m having so much fun with my tablet and there’s still so much more I could do with it!\n\nCheck out the great selection of tablets and accessories at Staples."

"Since the first flickerings of technology, humanity has been captivated by artificial intelligence – the concept that machines could one day interact, respond and think for themselves as if they were truly alive. Artificial intelligence is certainly an interesting topic and one day lead to automation of the labour market, an idea that is both exciting and terrifying at the same time.\n\nThe interest in artificial intelligence (AKA as AI) has been on the rise particularly from 2012 which reveals a sharp interest in the subject matter according to Google Trends. Of course, this is not wholly surprising, technological advancements have been swift - only last week did Google unveil Duplex - their artificial intelligence feature capable of booking appointments and mimicking human speech patterns.\n\nThe future of AI, is certainly bright and according to experts across the globe, machines will soon be capable of replacing a variety of jobs - from writing bestsellers, to composing Top 40 pop songs and even performing your open-heart surgery!\n\nHowever, the biggest question remains: how long until that point?\n\nOne of the biggest “bottom-up” advances for artificial intelligence is the ability to be intuitive in planning and responding to tasks. Perhaps the biggest breakthrough in this regard came in 2016 when AlphaGo, a custom program developed by Google's DeepMind AI unit, beat the world’s best “Go” player.\n\nThe historical Chinese board game had long been seen as one of AI's greatest challenges, the sheer variety of possible moves demanding players evaluate and react in countless different ways to each turn. That a program was finally able to challenge this level of “humanity” was a real breakthrough, even more than IBM’s Deep Blue over chess champion Garry Kasparov in 1996.\n\nMost recently, this was further demonstrated by Google at the unveiling of Google Duplex. Not only did the artificial intelligence demonstrate the ability to book appointments but the technology was sophisticated enough to be able to mimic natural pauses in human speech to the point where robot was not distinguishable from human in terms of speech patterns.\n\nBecause of the leap forward in intelligence, experts from across the globe now predict we will see an AI program be able to win the World Series of Poker in just two short years. Not only that, but the same reactive technology is currently being investigated by the banking sector - with Natwest’s \"Cora\" chatbot in particular tipped to replace all telephone banking by 2022.\n\nWhat about other job sectors. Are they too under threat from the advancement of artificial intelligence? Well, recent research from survey company Gartner suggests that 85% of customer interactions in retail will be AI-managed by 2020. The other 15%, mainly the human sales process, will take a fair while longer - with 2031 the closest estimate for full replacement. In addition it is suggested that the following years will see automation infiltrating different sectors:\n\n2022 - Telephone banking will be fully automated negating the need for actual telephone bankers.\n\n2027 - It is believed that truck drivers will be replaced with AI, we are already seeing this occur with the introduction and testing of driverless technology.\n\n2031 - Retail workers will potentially be automated by this point. We have already seen the introduction of self service checkouts and it is predicted that 85% of retail interactions will be automated by 2020 with the remaining 15% following suit by 2031.\n\n2054 - AI will be able to operate on patients which could negate the use of many surgeons and specialist doctors.\n\n2103 - AI is already helping researchers but is struggling on the situational analytical front, by 2103 however, researchers will be replaced.\n\nWill humans be eclipsed by robots?\n\nAutomation has quickly become a buzzword in modern society, from self service checkouts, to market automation, it’s everywhere as humans strive to find quicker solutions to menial tasks.\n\nThe risk to the labour market from artificial intelligence is a growing one, particularly given the rapid rate at which AI seems to be developing. As a result, it will be challenging to ensure that AI doesn’t wipe out several job sectors, which could necessitate new legislation monitoring the usage of artificial intelligence and protecting humans and their employment.\n\nHowever, we have already seen shifts to incorporate the digital-driven advances in a variety of sectors, from banking to farming and beyond. Many predict that learning new skills early will be crucial for any affected sector - which looks set to be many of them. It’s no surprise that within schools and universities the governments are heavily pushing S.T.E.M (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) subjects in a bid to increase the number of competent technology professionals.\n\nIn addition, all is not lost to robots as humans still currently have the edge over their engineered counterparts. One of the biggest challenges for any artificial intelligence is the idea of ‘bottom up’ learning - the ability for a machine mind to react in a situational manner rather than simply following algorithms.\n\nIt is this lack of emotional intelligence within AI that gives humans the edge over robots. However, we must ensure that our skill set remains up to date if we are to compete going forward."

"Gran Turismo 7 developer Polyphony Digital has revealed that force feedback was turned down in update 1.15 to prevent ‘injury’ to players.\n\nHowever, another update to Polyphony Digital’s flagship game slipped under the radar and was today (27th May 2022) confirmed by a post on the official Gran Turismo 7 website.\n\nThe post stated: “We confirmed an issue where certain steering wheel controller and vehicle combinations would cause excessively strong force feedback vibrations which could result in injury, and so we greatly reduced the force feedback/torque as a temporary emergency measure on those specific steering wheels.”\n\nEssentially, to avoid the kind of direct-drive mishap many sim racers have suffered – a broken wrist from a flailing wheelrim has happened many times before – Polyphony Digital has taken decisive action and turned down the force feedback effects created by three of the more popular wheels on the market.\n\nThe three affected wheelbases are the Fanatec Podium, the Thrustmaster T-GT and the Fanatec GT DD Pro. Both afflicted Fanatec wheels are direct-drive, so understandably can create much more torque than an entry-level gear-driven Logitech G923 or hybrid Thrustmaster T248.\n\nThe presence on the list of the less powerful, belt-driven Thrustmaster T-GT is a little more surprising, however.\n\nWith the Gran Turismo World Series esports competition also beginning today, many of its participants will be directly affected by the force feedback issue. However, Polyphony Digital has stressed the weakening of force feedback is only a temporary measure, so we should expect a Gran Turismo 7 patch very soon."

"The Australian Dollar rallied against its major peers after now soon-to-be former Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull was ousted and is to be replaced by Scott Morrison. This development crossed the wires after Mr. Turnbull slowly lost his grip on government over the past couple of days. Members of his own cabinet resigning yesterday weighed on both AUD/USD and the ASX 200.\n\nNow, with some of that political uncertainty removed, the Australian Dollar and the country’s benchmark stock index found themselves appreciating. Mr. Morrison ended up winning the Liberal party room vote by 45 to 40 over the right-wing Peter Dutton. The former was seen as more of the status quo while the latter might have offered more dramatic changes.\n\nNot only did the Aussie and ASX 200 increase, but Australian front-end government bond yields also rose. Though the RBA remains patient before acting on raising rates in the near-term. Ahead, the markets will be eyeing a speech from Fed Chair Jerome Powell at the Jackson Hole Central Banking Symposium. The US Dollar could rise if Mr. Powell increases hawkish policy expectations. This may also bode ill for stocks and thus AUD.",

"On a daily chart, the reduction in Australian political uncertainty caused a spike in AUD/USD to the upside. However, at the time of this writing the pair still remains shy of paring its loses from yesterday’s trading session. In the event Aussie Dollar finds itself resuming the dominant downtrend since February as the week comes to an end, the pair could get stuck on the current 2018 low at 0.72026. On the other hand, resistance is the August 21st high at 0.73818.",

"We can get more than 2.5 million dollar income from the Australia series and SLC has decided to donate the proceeds from the match ticket sales to the Sports Minister for the benefit of the Sri Lankan people at this critical stage said SLC Secretary Mohan de Silva at the press briefing held at the Hotel Cinnamon Grand yesterday.\n\nThe tickets for the first two T-20 ‘ s have been already sold out while 14,000 online tickets have been booked and we saw heavy queues to collect tickets at SLC counters and this shows spectators are keen to see the matches especially during this hard period. A full house is expected after a long time and they get this chance after nearly two years\n\nThe SLC Secretary said We are very confident of concluding this Australian series successfully. This is a very challenging time for all and we are indeed very happy to conduct this Australian cricket series. Their participation is very important despite the difficulties of the country and it give a positive message to all. Especially we must thank Cricket Australia (CA) and Australia Government for their support to conduct this cricket series. We also thank title sponsors of the T29 series Daraz Sri Lanka, Title sponsors of the Warne- Murali Test series Moose Clothing and the National team sponsor of the SLC Dialog Axiata and SkyExch.Net for giving their support for this tournament.\n\nThe proceeds from the cricket series is very important for our country’ s economy during this difficult period and we hope to conclude this series successfully said SLC Secretary Mohan de Silva.\n\nThe CEO of SLC Ashley de Silva said SLC is looking to conduct National series as well as Under 19, Emerging and Sri Lanka A cricket series annually which were halted due to Global pandemic. However at this stage we have successfully negotiated with Cricket Australia to conduct National and Australia A series concurrently which is a big challenge.\n\nNot only this Australian series but also the Pakistan two Test match series which will be held from mid July followed by third edition of the Lanka Premier League ( LPL ) will bring much needed revenue The Pakistan two Tests most probably will be played in Colombo and Galle. The success of the Australian and Pakistan cricket series will pave the way to host Asia Cup which is a heavy investment during this period, said SLC CEO Ashley de Silva."

"Five former commanders of U.S. Southern Command have warned in an open letter that cutting aid to Central America will only make matters worse on America's southern border.\n\n\"As former Commanders of U.S. Southern Command, we have seen firsthand that the challenges in the region cannot be solved by the military alone but require strengthening investments in development and diplomacy,\" the commanders wrote, in a letter released Monday by the U.S. Global Leadership Coalition.\n\nThe letter comes in response to the State Department's recent announcement that it would end hundreds of millions of dollars in foreign assistance to El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras — countries where many migrants have fled violence or poverty and headed north to seek asylum.\n\nFor example, according to State, foreign aid to this \"Northern Triangle\" contributed to $92.2 million in exports and created over 29,000 jobs in Central America in 2017. The release also touted U.S. support that led to reductions in violence and arrests of gang members.\n\n\"We know that if we invest at the scale of the problem, it works because we've seen it work in Colombia, where a sustained comprehensive civilian-military effort helped Colombians end the longest conflict in the Western Hemisphere and transform their country into a key security and trading partner,\" the letter from the former commanders said.\n\nOn the flip side, the U.S. spent $18.9 billion on border security and immigration enforcement in 2017, according to a White House fact sheet.\n\n\"Improving conditions in Honduras, Guatemala, and El Salvador is a critical way to address the root causes of migration and prevent the humanitarian crisis at our border. This is a solution to many of the drivers that cause people to leave their country and move north. Cutting aid to the region will only increase the drivers and will be even more costly to deal with on our border.\""

"Tlakusane has picked up two consecutive yellow cards in tackles that looked over the top against AmaZulu FC and Cape Town City FC, when The Beautiful Game asked Truter if there is anything untoward, he passionately said to us;\n\n“Ja look, Bafana is one of the nicest guys you could meet off the field, and I’m positive that it wasn’t intentional the tackles that you are talking about. So these things do happen in football, yes Bafana is one of our enforcers because he tries to break down the oppositions build-ups etc.\n\n“But one or two times he will get it wrong, but it is not intentional to hurt anybody or anything like that, these things happen in the game, even referees get it wrong at times,” concluded Truter.\n\nTlakusane has been an ever-present feature in the Dube Birds’ midfield with his man-of-the-match performances and was extremely unlucky not to be called by Molefe Ntseki for Bafana Bafana in the upcoming crucial back-to-back fixtures against Ghana and Sudan respectively."

"Joe Biden said, “I respect no borders!” Well, neither do thieves, thugs, tyrants, and totalitarians. Nor do border-crossing drug lords, terrorists, pedophiles, disease carriers, and job seekers. Thinking Americans know that there must be order in everything. Without borders, there are no nations, but then, that’s what leftists want. Protestors chant, “No borders, no walls, no USA at all!” Their demand for amnesty, sanctuary cities, and open borders is a plan for anarchy.\n\nI have been accused of being unreasonable, unkind, and even unchristian in my opposition of amnesty and sanctuary cities; however, the accusation is not based on solid reasoning or the Scripture. Leftist Evangelicals misrepresent the Bible to make it fit their pathetic, perverted, progressive, and political positions.\n\nBleating heart Evangelicals want us to believe that we should have open borders because the undocumented aliens are trying to escape tyranny, gangs, and poverty, so our nation should overlook their illegal entry into our nation. After all, we are a Christian nation. No, first of all, only people can become Christians; however, a nation can become Christianized or influenced by the Bible. Furthermore, most of the enthusiasts for open borders and amnesty purposefully confuse an individual’s responsibility with a nation’s obligation. Everyone who wants to understand ancient literature knows he or she must discern who wrote it, to whom it was written, and when it was written.\n\nTrump’s religious critics are not asking those questions. Exodus 23:9 is often used by the Bible-twisters to support their cause; however, they use a defective hermeneutic to construct their false anti-Trump position. “Also thou shalt not oppress a stranger: for ye know the heart of a stranger, seeing ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.” That passage is dealing with a person’s obligation, not national obligations. Most of those Evangelicals who quote that passage know that but are being less than honest to establish a very shaky political principle.\n\nIt is easy to prove my contention about this being a personal obligation. Verse 3 of that chapter warns the ancient Jews (and us today), “Neither shalt thou countenance (give approval) a poor man in his cause.” Moses was warning us about showing favor to a person because of his condition, whether rich or poor. Believers must be ever vigilant not to be swayed by emotions but by justice. The time-honored truism is, “Let justice be done, though the heavens should be dissolved.”\n\nI heard one of the great evangelists of the last generation say, “Do right though the stars fall from Heaven.” The illegal aliens have not done right. They resolutely broke our laws and crashed our gates, and forced themselves in front of others who have followed our laws and procedures. There are five million people who are waiting in line legally, but illegal aliens refuse to wait. Their arrogance and audaciousness are astounding, while their advocates are angry and appalling.\n\nIs there a limit to how many immigrants we are expected to admit? Do we wait until the ship is sinking before we realize there are limits? If an overcrowded ship sinks, then everyone is lost. Do-gooders (as opposed to those who do good) are not the most logical thinkers.\n\nJim Wallis is another do-gooder who doesn’t think logically and is president of the leftist religious outfit Sojourners. Jim, no longer editor of their journal, declared, “Evangelicals finally realize that how we treat the stranger, these 11 million undocumented people, [No, it is now 22 million] is how we treat Christ himself.” Wallis was evidently napping during his seminary hermeneutics class because he did not get that from the Bible. Christians are to be thoughtful, gracious, kind, and helpful, but that does not translate into being softies, suckers, and sycophants. We could really show how gentle, gracious, and generous—as well as unwise, unreliable, and unhinged—we are by emptying all our prisons!\n\nWell, some governors have tried that, and how has it worked?\n\nWallis went on to say the leadership of the Evangelical Immigration Table, which includes the National Association of Evangelicals and the Ethics and Religious Liberty Convention of the Southern Baptist Convention and the evangelical community, have “never been more united on an issue.” Jim has one of two problems: he is either disingenuous or uninformed because the vast majority of evangelicals want illegal immigrants to go home.\n\nA Pulse Opinion poll revealed that 78% of Evangelicals surveyed believed that the biblical command to “love the stranger” means “to treat the stranger humanely while applying the rule of law.” Additionally, a Pew Research Center poll showed only 25% of white Evangelicals believed the U.S. had a “responsibility” to accept refugees into the country.\n\nWallis is wrong again, but then, he should be used to that.\n\nChrist commanded everyone to treat others the way they want to be treated, but that has nothing to do with how a nation deals with illegal aliens. Let’s return to Exodus 23:9: “Also thou shalt not oppress a stranger: for ye know the heart of a stranger, seeing ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.” Incoherent preachers neglect to tell their parishioners that the Jews were in Egypt by invitation and were not gatecrashers as are modern fence-climbers. What is never mentioned is the Jews were special guests as long as Joseph was alive, and a friendly Pharaoh reigned.\n\nThe Jews were strangers in Egypt (but not illegal aliens) even though they eventually ended up as slaves. Exodus 23:9 does not apply to the immigration issue even slightly. Unlawful foreigners choose to break our laws, also arrogantly demanding entrance into our nation expecting to be cared for upon their arrival. These lawbreakers are not sojourners or strangers but scoundrels and are encouraged to do wrong in breaking our laws by many leftwing religious groups, even some Evangelicals.\n\nSome of these leftists’ religious groups get paid $1850.00 for each immigrant they settle in an American city. Follow the money.\n\nOther desperate defenders of open borders tell us Joseph, Mary, and Jesus were migrants fleeing into another land for safety, so American immigration laws should reflect that fact. However, it is not a fact. The family was not aliens since they were part of the Roman Empire, as was Egypt at that time. Moreover, it was perfectly legal to travel from one Roman province to another. Careless religious leaders should be ashamed of their misrepresentation of Scripture to support a very unsubstantiated position. These people seem to think they exhale divine revelations, but they expel a mish-mash of immature babbling and purposefully distorted theology.\n\nWhile the Evangelicals are correct in that the Kingdom of God has no borders and welcomes all who qualify through faith in Christ, the city of Jerusalem, the nation of Israel, and all other nations, states, cities, and villages and the Evangelicals’ gated estates do have distinct borders.\n\nThis is a good example of how far left many Evangelicals are. Evangelical churches are wallowing in diversity and choking on heresy. Evangelicals have proved to be what astute people knew they always were: a hodgepodge of theological lightweights (with a few heavyweights), philosophical cripples, and devotees of political correctness.\n\nAlas, soft, left-leaning Evangelicals are part of the family of God if they have been born again, and I am required, as a member of that family, to warn them, even rebuke and shun them if they continue in their sinful behavior.\n\nMany soft Evangelical leaders are sad, smug, and sanctimonious hypocrites, but it pays well.\n\nBleating heart! bahahaha. So cute. Sheeple. I get it. <3 another great article by dr boys\n\nJesus never called on Caesar to “spread the wealth around.”",

"RAIN GIVES WAY TO FAST LAPS AT THE BEND CLASSIC",

"A SATURDAY afternoon happy hour has seen a flat-out sprint between some of Australia’s fastest racing cars at The Bend Classic.\n\nAfter a brief morning warm-up, torrentially wet weather forced the Formula One and open-wheel machines into the garages for much of Saturday.\n\nHowever, a change in the weather from rain to late afternoon sunshine – and a substantial track drying effort from volunteer officials and The Bend Motorsport Park staff – saw a 30-minute session contested at the end of the day; one that sets the scene for a high-speed Sunday at the circuit.\n\nThere was no Spa Francorchamps-style issues in sight as on a rapidly improving track, late on Saturday afternoon, tumbling lap times saw the day end with Yasser Shahin setting a 1m10.723s flyer.\n\nThat benchmark, set aboard a Formula Renault 3.5 V8, is only a few tenths off The Bend’s West Circuit lap record set by Josh Kean in a Footwork Arrows Formula One car last year.\n\nIt means Shahin tops the tables heading into Sunday’s sessions which will culminate in a top-10 shootout for the 10 fastest cars of the entire event on Sunday afternoon.\n\nIt’s likely to result in a lap record chase as the wings and slicks cars attempt to crack the 1m09s for the first time on The Bend’s 3.4km West Circuit.\n\nThe maiden and highly anticipated run of the ex-Giancarlo Fisichella Benneton B198 ended with Sam Shahin, last year’s Classic winner, finishing the day second fastest with a 1m14.602s best in his first serious run in the car.\n\nWhile a fuel issue cut short his running to just 11 laps, the car was a massive drawcard throughout the day as crowds watched from the rear of the pit garage each time the car was fired up – the V10 sound echoing across The Bend Motorsport Park both from pit lane and when on track.\n\nCraig Lowndes elected to conserve his Dallara F189 Cosworth for Sunday’s running, but still ended the day fourth fastest overall thanks to his 1m15.612s best – achieved in just five laps of running.\n\nChris Slursarski was fifth fastest (1m18.633) in his Formula Toyota FT-50, while a cautious Brenton Grigoul ended the day 9th in the greasy conditions aboard his Lola-Larrousse Cosworth.\n\nThe predominantly wet weather failed to dampen the spirits of the competitors on Saturday with six classes each logging plenty of laps.\n\nThe Bend Classic continues on Sunday with a full day of action and better conditions forecast for Tailem Bend, an hour outside of Adelaide.\n\nTickets are available at the gate for just $10.",

"Talking to media after the meeting with Prime Minister Imran Khan, MNAs Jamil and Fahim admitted that they were present in the video along with Ali Haider Gilani. SCREENGRAB\nISLAMABAD:\n\nFour MNAs of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) on Saturday confessed featuring in the viral video of Ali Haider Gilani, son of former prime minister Yousuf Raza Gilani, in which he was allegedly explaining to the lawmakers how to waste their votes in the recently-held Senate elections.\n\nAli Haider Gilani has already admitted that the video, which emerged on the eve of hotly-contested Senate elections, was indeed legitimate and had said that it belonged to PTI.\n\nSpeaking to the media after the meeting, Jamil and Faheem admitted that they were indeed present in the video along with Gilani. \"We did not make the video on anyone's directions,\" said Fahim when asked by a reporter about the \"sting operation\".\n\nSaying that they were \"soldiers of Imran Khan\", Faheem said that the party would soon make an official statement regarding the video scandal.\n\nWhen asked about their appearance before the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) he said that both of them will appear as their \"conscience was clear\".\n\nPTI MNAs, during the meeting with the prime minister, said that today is the day of the defeat of the opposition and the historic victory for Imran Khan. \"All of us have full confidence in the prime minister. We will stay with him till death.\"\n\nYousuf Raza Gilani contested against Finance Minister Dr Abdul Hafeez Shaikh in the highest-profile contest of the Senate election 2021, in which he eventually emerged victorious.\n\nIn the one-and-half minute video, Gilani’s son could be heard talking to the ruling party’s lawmakers, according to a private TV channel.\n\nAmid uproar from the PTI, Pakistan People's Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari came to the rescue of the Gilanis, saying that attempts were being made by the government to give the wrong impression that the opposition was involved in corrupt practices.\n\n“In reality, Prime Minister Imran Khan is using state's money to bribe people,” he claimed in a news conference flanked by Yousuf Raza Gilani on Tuesday night. \"On the video issue, I would say that PPP is contesting the [Senate] elections in a democratic manner. If money is being used in elections, then it is the government which is using it,\" Bilawal had said, urging the government to \"control\" its members."

"I am a business owner and that is something I never thought would have been possible until I actually decided to buckle down and make it happen.\n\nI also did it the hard way – with no money. Starting a business is difficult as it is, then when you do it with no money it brings up new challenges and obstacles. But I want to share my story to encourage others and show you that it is possible – even with $0.\n\nHere is my story. I hope you enjoy it and find something of value you can apply to your own business journey.\n\nI was working a regular job that I had been at for six years. I hated it and always wanted to start my own business but I was scared and kept making excuses for myself.\n\nThen I decided to go for it, and I started working on it in my spare time. I was waking up at 4am and putting in three hours every morning and then another three hours at night from 9pm to midnight. I did this every single day, even on the weekends.\n\nThat was six hours a day, seven days a week, which translated into 42 hours dedicated to my business. When it came down to it I was working more on my business than at my real job. It also meant I was working two jobs, but only getting paid for one.\n\nLaid Out a Plan\n\nThis was the most important thing I did. I planned everything. I created a detailed plan, with goals, micro-goals, and then a map to reach every single one.\n\nImagine trying to drive across the country with no map and no plan. You would end up wasting so much time trying to guess. It would be 100% trial and error. But with a map and plan your trip would be much more efficient.\n\nThe same applies to starting a business. Every day I knew exactly what I had to do and what needed to be done. I maximized every single hour I had and it resulted in me hitting goals much faster than I would have if I wasn’t a good planner.\n\nI was VERY frugal in the beginning. I worked from my kitchen table for the first year. I didn’t even think of getting an office until I had consistent money coming in. Then when I did get my first office it wasn’t anything fancy. It was the complete opposite actually.\n\nMy first office was in a friend’s warehouse and I didn’t get my office until I had a few clients and money coming in. It was not ideal, but it worked and he gave me a great deal on rent. I furnished my office with discounted items from the Aucto marketplace and looked for the best deals I could find. I had to stretch every dollar.\n\nStarting a business with no money requires being as frugal as possible. You have to know how to stretch every penny that comes in.\n\nHad an Understanding Wife\n\nMy wife was very supportive and while it wasn’t ideal that I was working every night she knew that it was all part of a plan to create a better life for us. She was very understanding.\n\nWithout her being understanding it would have never worked. In order for me to succeed I had to give 100% to building the business. Anything less and I would have failed.\n\nNow we have a lot more free time and the ability to travel. These days she works for the business and the time we get to spend together now makes up for that brief period that our free time was very limited.\n\nRefused to Give Up\n\nThere were times that I thought about giving up and throwing in the towel. I will admit it. Anyone that has started a business and says that thought never entered their mind at least once is lying.\n\nIt can be very difficult and stressful. But the only way you will ever have a chance of being successful is by pushing hard, especially when the times are hard.\n\nYou have to be willing to put your head down, take some blows to the head, and keep going. Don’t let anything stop you.\n\nBlake is a business consultant, blogger, youth soccer coach and father of five. Because of this he loves coffee."

"CANADIAN PREMIERE, NEW PRODUCTION AND DEBUT APPEARANCES MAKE UP COC’S DOUBLE BILL OF A FLORENTINE TRAGEDY AND GIANNI SCHICCHI\nApril 26 to May 25, 2012\nat the Four Seasons Centre for the Arts, Toronto",
null,
"return of Giacomo Puccini’s Gianni Schicchi, last seen with the COC in 1996. The two operas are presented in a new COC production by the legendary soprano-turned-director Catherine Malfitano and world-renowned conductor Sir Andrew Davis. A Florentine Tragedy is sung in German and Gianni Schicchi is sung in Italian, both with English SURTITLES™.\n\nThe COC’s double bill is one of the rare times that A Florentine Tragedy and Gianni Schicchi have been paired together. The two works were written just a year apart, with Zemlinsky’s A Florentine Tragedy premiering in Stuttgart in 1917 and Puccini’s Gianni Schicchi at the Metropolitan Opera in 1918, and both use Florence as the backdrop for their respective stories of familial turmoil.",
null,
"Catherine Malfitano makes her company debut directing the COC’s double bill, an opportunity that marks the first time in Malfitano’s illustrious career that she has had the chance to be involved in a production of A Florentine Tragedy. Malfitano made her debut as stage director in 2005, following a career as America’s leading operatic soprano, having portrayed over 70 roles and given more than 1,400 performances at all the major opera houses of the world. As a director, she has staged critically acclaimed productions for Central City Opera Festival, Florida Grand Opera, Washington National Opera, Théâtre Royal de la Monnaie, English National Opera and Lyric Opera of Chicago.\n\nThe COC’s new production uses Florence’s breathtaking cityscape as the canvas on which Malfitano draws out the themes of class values, morality and excess of riches that underline both operas, with set designs by Wilson Chin, costume designs by Terese Wadden and lighting designs by David Martin Jacques. Inspired by how A Florentine Tragedy and Gianni Schicchi are linked in time and subject but can feel representative of two very different worlds, Malfitano’s concept unites the two operas by having them take place within the same Italian palazzo but physically sets them in different time periods.\n\nSir Andrew Davis makes a highly anticipated return to the opera company to lead the COC Orchestra, having delighted audiences with his conducting debut with the COC in 2011’s Ariadne auf Naxos. With the double bill, Davis takes audiences on a musical journey starting with Zemlinsky’s ravishing",

"late-Romantic score that shifts from the dark and sinister to the light and shimmery, and then through Puccini’s quick-fire composition, with harmonies and lyrical passages that echo the hilarity and solemnity of the opera’s twisted plot.\n\nThe Canadian premiere of Zemlinsky’s A Florentine Tragedy is a chance to discover a rare gem of the operatic repertoire. Based on an unfinished Oscar Wilde play, the darkly satiric work tells the tale of a merchant who discovers his wife is having an affair and contains one of opera’s most unexpected endings with the murder of the wife’s lover and the married couple’s passionate reconciliation. Alan Held, recognized internationally as one of the leading singing actors today and called “one of America’s best bass-baritones” (Opera News), makes his COC debut in the lead role of Simone, the cuckolded merchant. German soprano Gun-Brit Barkmin, who has won great acclaim for her breathtaking voice and dramatically intense stage presence, makes her COC debut as Simone’s wife, Bianca. German tenor Michael König, a regular artist with the opera houses of Frankfurt, Hamburg, Stuttgart, Vienna, Barcelona, Madrid and Paris, makes his COC debut as Guido Bardi, Bianca’s lover.\n\nIn Puccini’s Gianni Schicchi, American bass-baritone Alan Held sings the title role. As the street-smart peasant Gianni Schicchi, Held is at the heart of this fast-paced comedy inspired by Dante’s Divine Comedy, in which a family frantically schemes to benefit their own greed when excluded from a wealthy relative’s will.

"alike with her recent COC performances as Gilda in Rigoletto and Pamina in The Magic Flute, returns to the mainstage as Schicchi’s daughter, Lauretta, singing one of opera’s best-known arias, “O! mio babbino caro.”\n\nA host of new and familiar faces to the COC are cast as the grieving and greedy family members of the deceased relative, Buoso Donati. American mezzo-soprano Barbara Dever, in demand throughout the world for her dramatic operatic and concert repertoire, and last with the COC for 2010’s The Flying Dutchman, returns as Zita, Buoso’s cousin. In the role of Rinuccio, Lauretta’s love and Zita’s nephew, is American tenor René Barbera in his COC debut; a young artist on the rise, Barbera was awarded a First Prize for Opera at Operalia 2011, the Plácido Domingo World Opera Competition, and is a 2008 winner of the Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions. Ensemble Studio graduate tenor Adam Luther, last heard in the COC’s The Nightingale and Other Short Fables, both in Toronto and on tour in New York at the Brooklyn Academy of Music, is Gherardo, Buoso’s nephew, and German soprano Gun-Brit Barkmin follows her performance in A Florentine Tragedy by singing the role of Nella, Gherardo’s wife. Young American bass-baritone Craig Irvine makes his COC debut as Betto di Signa, Buoso’s brother-in-law. Italian bass Donato DiStefano (2011’s La Cenerentola) is Simone, Buoso’s cousin, Ensemble Studio graduate baritone Peter McGillivray (2008’s War and Peace and 2006’s Faust) is Marco, Simone’s son, and",

"Pistachios star in this dessert, flavoring both the hidden filling in the chocolate tarts and the silky flan, and sprinkled over the plate. Chef Deborah Snyder, who was working at JUdson Grill when she taped this dish for Great Chefs, adds the taste of muscat grapes in the sauce -- created by boiling down muscat wine until it is thick and syrupy -- and muscat ice cream. She tops the dessert with a spiral of pulled sugar; edible flowers also look wonderful as a garnish.\n\nTo prepare the candied pistachios: Preheat the oven to 350 F. Line a sided sheet pan with aluminum foil. Combine all ingredients in a bowl, tossing to coat. Spread the nuts on the prepared pan and toast about 10 minutes, or until lightly colored and fragrant. Remove and set aside to cool. Break into small pieces.\n\nTo make the dough: Cream the butter and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer until smooth. Add the egg and vanilla extract. Scrape the seeds from the vanilla bean pod into the mixture; the discarded pod may be put into a canister of granulated sugar to make vanilla sugar if desired. Beat the mixture just to blend; scrape the sides of the bowl. Add the flour and salt until just combined. Cover with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator to chill for at least 1 hour.\n\nPreheat the oven to 425 F. Roll the dough between pieces of parchment paper until 1/16-inch thick. Place 4-inch or 5-inch ring molds on a baking sheet lined with a silicone liner or parchment paper. Cut out 6-inch or 7-inch circles of dough and press into the rings. Trim any excess dough to level the tops. Prick the bottom and sides with a fork. Bake 10 to 15 minutes, until golden brown. Remove and let cool on the baking sheet.\n\nTo prepare the chocolate filling: Melt the chocolate and butter in the top of a double boiler over barely simmering water. Whisk gently to combine; set aside; do not beat air into the mixture. Combine the eggs, egg yolks, and sugar in a bowl and whisk together to combine. Fold a large spoonful of the egg mixture into the chocolate until completely combined, then fold in the remaining egg mixture. Sift the flour over the mixture and fold until combined. Set aside.\n\nTo prepare the pistachio cream: Cream the almond paste and pistachio paste in the bowl of an electric mixer. Add the butter and sugar and cream until the sugar has dissolved completely and no grains can be felt when the mixture is rubbed between thumb and forefinger. Add the eggs and egg yolks, one at a time, continuing to cream until the mixture is smooth. Scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl. Reduce the mixer speed and add the flour; mix just until combined.\n\nPreheat the oven to 325 F. Spoon some of the pistachio mixture into the bottom of each pastry shell. Cover with the chocolate filling. Bake 8 to 10 minutes, until the filling is set. Set aside at room temperature until cooled; cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate.\n\nPreheat the oven to 300 F. Spray six to eight 2-ounce ramekins with non-stick coating spray and place them in a large roasting pan. In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs, egg yolks, and sugar together until light in color and slightly thickened. Slowly pour in one fourth of the milk mixture, whisking briskly. Whisk in the remaining hot milk mixture. Strain through a fine-meshed sieve into a bowl set in a larger bowl of ice. Stir until cool.\n\nPour the cooled flan mixture into the ramekins. Fill the roasting pan with very hot water, halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Cover with foil, crimping the foil over the baking pan, and bake until the custards are just set, about 20 minutes. Check carefully to avoid letting too much steam escape, or knocking water droplets off the foil into the custards. When cooked, remove the foil, take the ramekins out of the hot water, and let cool. Cover with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.\n\nTo serve: Take the tarts out of the refrigerator and allow to warm at room temperature for 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 325 F. Unmold the pistachio tarts and warm in the oven. Put the reduced muscat wine in a squeeze bottle and draw a spiral in the center of each serving plate. Place a tart to one side on each plate, overlapping the spiral slightly. Unmold a flan on each serving plate beside the tart. Sprinkle candied pistachios around the plate. Garnish each plate with a small quenelle of ice cream and more drizzles of reduced muscat wine. Add a pulled sugar or edible flower garnish if desired."

"The Crystal Cathedral, which has put its iconic campus up for sale to end a bankruptcy crisis, has an interested party that needs a large cathedral: the Roman Catholic Diocese of Orange, California.\n\nThe diocese -- the nation's 11th largest -- does not have its own cathedral but has studied the option to build one in nearby Santa Ana, California.\n\nWhile that study is ongoing, \"it is prudent to evaluate the opportunity to engage in the pending auction of this property and to mitigate the chance that it cease to function as a place of worship, if acquired by others,\" said Orange Bishop Tod Brown in a July 6 statement.\n\nMarc Winthrop, the lawyer representing the Crystal Cathedral in its bankruptcy case, told the Orange County Register that inquiries from various parties are coming in daily.\n\n\"The diocese would obviously buy the property to use it for themselves, which will be a big impediment as far as the Crystal Cathedral is concerned,\" he told the newspaper.\n\nOther prospective buyers--including a development company and nearby Chapman University--plan to offer the cathedral a leaseback program that would allow it to continue worship services in the renowned glass-walled edifice.\n\nIn recent years, the church has been mired in family, leadership and financial problems. It owed $7.5 million to creditors when it filed for bankruptcy protection last October. On Monday, it announced that founder Robert H. Schuller had been removed from a voting position on its board.",

"Today I want to begin an occasional series on Peter’s second letter. In my personal studies I have spent a lot of time looking at the church in Acts and Second Peter seems a natural development of that. At the time the letter was written the church had been in existence for over 30 years and issues were beginning to arise. In 1 Peter we read about persecution in and in 2 Peter the serious issue of false teachers arises – specifically false teachers from within the church.\n\nHowever, let me start with a story. A friend was telling me about an issue within a church: should the pastor marry a believer with an unbeliever? The arguments have been flying thick and fast. Some say that 2 Cor 6:14 which warns against believers being yoked to unbelievers summarises what God’s intention is. Others suggest that if the two people love each other the church should be loving and gracious and see the marriage as a possibility for evangelism and outreach.\n\nI’ll be up front. Without going into detail (which I could do very easily) I believe the Bible in the OT and NT reminds us that marriage is an institution (from a Christian’s perspective) which God has instituted and needs to be done in a way that honours His Word. In other words, believers should not marry an unbeliever. (I can sense many hackles rising). Maybe",
null,
"I’ll expand on this on another occasion.\n\nIn the first 10 verses of 2 Peter 1 the word “knowledge” is mentioned: knowledge of God (vs 2), knowledge (vs5) and knowledge of Jesus (vs8). The healthy Christian life is underpinned by an understanding of God and His will. To stand firm against false teaching we need to know what God intends.\n\nWill this stop arguments? Not at all. But at least our common reference point will be God’s Word in all its fullness and not human opinion and variable feelings. In Peter’s words. we will be “established in the truth” (vs 12).\n\nLord willing. I will have an opportunity to unpack this further in the future.\n\nSo on to Peter.\n\n2 thoughts on “Peter’s Second Letter and the Church Today”"

Elon Musk has also tweeted about this ‘high-performance antenna’. Under the premium service, high-demand users, including businesses, will be offered fast internet speeds with a large antenna and high throughput.\n\nWith the premium service, Starlink users can be given 150-500 Mbps download speed and 20-30ms latency. Latency is the time taken by the data signal from point A to point B and then back to point A. It is measured in milliseconds (ms). Higher latency means delay in data transmission. The lower the latency, the faster the internet will run. Generally a latency range of 20ms to 40ms is considered better.\n\nStarlink has Website But it has been told that the premium service has been designed in such a way that it will work well even in bad weather. If there is any problem, then users will get support on priority basis. This support will work round the clock. Starlink’s services are not yet available in all localities.\n\nSpaceX, which operates Starlink, recently launched 49 satellites to improve satellite internet. The company is aiming to launch more than 2000 satellites in total. More satellite launches are expected in the coming weeks. US officials have allowed SpaceX to launch 12,000 mini-satellites.\n\nThis project has been designed to bring internet to remote areas. But there are concerns that the increasing number of small satellites will crowd the Earth’s orbit and pose many dangers.\n\nHowever, Starlink has asked interested users of the ‘Premium’ service to reserve slots on the company’s website. Its deliveries will start in the second quarter of this year."

"The 1,984 meter Mt Kurodake can be tackled in two ways, hiking or cheating. Be in so it was my day off out of the saddle I decided that it would be in my best interests to opt for the latter and cheat my way to the mountains summit. I‘d achieve this by firstly taking a gondola half way up the mountain and then jumping on a ski lift for the remainder. Taking the opportunity to cheat being a rare but wise choice on my part as I hovered over a guy on my ski-lift that had decided to hike, a decision I feel he may well have been seriously regretting as he found himself wading through some 4 ft of snow. I tried not to look smug upon passing over him as I swung my legs about dandily from the comfort of my seat, yet as I etched passed I couldn’t help but feel the hiker’s angry eyes burning into the back of my head. Jealously, a truly terrible disease.\n\nClear skies at the summit offered up some astounding views across the Ishikari mountain range. A real impression of the canyon can be observed as a sea of contrasting green foliage clambers up Sounkyo’s deep rift and further up the range before being abruptly halted by a montage of snow and dark rugged rock. The cool, fresh air satisfying, I lingered, having myself a little moment.",
null,
"A short way out of Sounkyo village is the areas other big draw, Ginga no Taki and Ryusei no Taki, respectively the Milky Way and Shooting Star Waterfalls. From the base the views of the falls were blotted by waves of tourists pimping out the peace sign. So to seek a more inspiring view one must ignore the sign advertising grizzly bears and look to gain some ground in which to find a vantage point in order to take some seriously naff shots. Oh, did I just say grizzly bears? Yes, yes I did! The Hokkaido grizzly can only be found in…well, Hokkaido, and at about 300kg is much bulkier than the Asiatic black bear found in Honshū, Kyushu and Shikoku. Although apparently less volatile than its southern counterpart that hasn’t stopped it from mulling 86 people and killing 33. This all according to the bear crimes register that has only been in existence since 1962. Before that one can only assume that the bears were probably having a free for all, partying all night with belly’s full of human flesh. Something that didn’t seem to faze the indigenous Ainu of Hokkaido too much however, they of whom used to worship the bear as a God in a gruesome ceremony known as Iomante. The bear would be skinned, its blood drunk and its skull then stuck on a spike and then wrapped in its own fur, the resulting relic then worshipped. Well, I for one wasn’t here for any grizzly idolisations; I was mostly here to see no bears, no bears at all. But what if one does see a bear? How realistically are you meant to react? Stand firm, and get eaten or run….and get eaten. The whole Man meets bear scenario still has a lot of groundwork to cover, unless of course an individual happens to be carrying an Uzi. Alas, I wasn’t. Instead I trod gingerly, away from the tourist hoards until I was truly alone and following a narrow path up a mountain opposite the falls. Despite being ridiculously quiet though, if there did just so happen to be a bear milling about, it would have no doubt smelt the small sense of fear emitting discreetly from my sphincter. Anyhow, the tourist breakaway well worth the risk of getting gang-banged by a pack of grizzly’s, as from a small rocky shelf one was able to observe uninterrupted views of the waterfalls. They seemed to burst out of a rock pinnacle some 100 metres high, a gushing stream of frothy white water crashing down into the Ishikari below. Another moment was in order.",
null,
null,
"After a few minutes my moment would collapse in on itself as banter approached in the form of a small mob of chatty tourists of whom bought with them about as much stealth as a pony on heat. If there did happen to be any grizzly’s about I was sure that they were now keeping a low profile on purpose, more than likely through fear of being chatted to death by a gossipy tourist. As the stampede of bants got closer I took my queue to retreat for the day and return to 1986.\n\nPS: If you’ve enjoyed my blog then you may enjoy my as of yet unpublished book of my venture around Japan. Something that with a little help from friends and strangers I’d like to publish for the whole world to see. Please if you have the time could you take a look at my Kickstarter campaign at: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/675565076/tokyo-to-tokyo",

"As the author of the critically praised book, The Films of Oshima Nagisa: Images of a Japanese Iconoclast, published in 1998, Turim explored the politics of desire in Japanese films, the representations of women in Japanese society, and the impact of formal experimentation.\n\nSince then, her research has focused on bringing together philosophical and psychoanalytic investigations of desire with a new approach to feminist concerns. Turim studies traditions that exclude women from acting on desire. her approach uses deconstructive methods to question universals and assumptions.Her upcoming fourth book is Desire and Its Ends: The Driving Force of Cinema in Relation to Literature and Art.\n\n“Here I examine what might be gained by reworking a Hegelian schema, ‘man’s desire is the desire of the other,’ by considering Melanie Klein’s notion that a child desires above all else to make him or herself understood,” Turim says.\n\nA UF professor since 1992, Turim also studies desire’s exploitation by consumer culture and the ways artistic form functions historically. She teaches undergraduate and graduate courses, including Narrative Form in Film, Women and Cinema, and Films of Godard. She will be offering courses and site coordinating for the next two summers at UF’s new Paris research center."

"Boosting your brain function sometimes can take more than the obvious suggestions such as adopting a healthy diet and exercise program or quit drinking and smoking. Even though we should follow these basic guidelines first, there are some alternative and supplemental ways to boost your cognitive function and that includes consuming certain herbs regularly either in tincture, pill, or plain tea form.\n\nThe following have been found according to various studies worldwide to enhance cognitive function, among other benefits.\n\nGreen tea is one of the most popular teas globally and many fitness and nutrition experts recommend it, mainly for its weight-loss and antioxidant benefits. However, due to the catechins it contains, it can also help boost immunity and protect the brain from the accelerated damaging effects of aging, as supported by many studies. Some have also found that green tea can also boost concentration and lessen the impact of stress and anxiety on our bodies. Just one cup every day is enough for reaping its health benefits as too much of it contains caffeine which can lead to minor side-effects.\n\nOolong tea may be the lesser known herb in the list but it has been used broadly by Chinese and other Asian civilizations due to its numerous health benefits which include enhancing memory and concentration. A previous study examining the effects of oolong tea consumption and risk of developing cognitive disorders has found that the more oolong and green tea people drunk through the study, the lower the risk of developing cognitive disorders. This can be attributed to the fact that oolong tea is a naturally fermented tea with healthy bacteria and antioxidants that also protect from physical and cognitive impairment. Oolong tea is also a key ingredient in our formulas so you can get weight loss, detox, and cognitive health all at once.\n\nGotu Kola (or Centella Asiatica) is a traditional herb used in Ayurveda and other ancient medicine systems e.g Chinese medicine, to treat a wide range of disorders that have bothered humanity for ages: wounds, inflammation, urinary tract infections, shingles, and common cold. Gotu Kola has also been found to help with cognitive and nervous system disorders like depression, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and age-related mental decline. One benefit of Gotu Kola unlike other herbal teas that also help boost cognitive function, is that it’s naturally caffeine-free so no need to worry about any of the side effects that come with it.\n\nThis fragrant and popular herb that we utilize in our cooking mostly, has some brain-boosting properties as well. This is a notion that has been kept for centuries in traditional folklore, but recent studies have backed this up as well. In fact, just sniffing pure rosemary or its oil has been found to enhance memory and make you easily remember things that are around you. So if you don’t like the taste much, you can sniff it only and you’ll get the same benefit.\n\nAnother popular herb in Asia and the Western world that is also featured in the vast majority of brain supplements for a good reason--it’s very potent in enhancing memory and brain function. Ginkgo Biloba contains extracts like Egb 761 and other powerful antioxidants that protect from brain degeneration due to ageing and environmental pollution. It also encourages blood flow to the brain, which makes it more alert and think faster. The only drawback of Ginkgo Biloba is that it can lead to over-stimulation and can mimic the action of caffeine when taken in excess. But if you only take it as a supplement within the suggested guidelines, you have nothing to worry about..."

The business is now in the process of installing a new management structure to manage its Australian and New Zealand operations, while also seeking to cut costs dramatically.\n\nPotentially, ViacomCBS could also seek to hold back some content from Foxtel as it looks to further strengthen its own businesses in Australia including free-to-air broadcaster 10, and SVOD service 10AllAccess.",

"Bottom line: “NeonMiner.com” now has lukMiner-powered four-node Xeon Phi systems, in stock, in the US…\n\nMy latest article on the Xeon Phi PCI cards has stirred quite some feedback; however, though these cards are undoubtedly more interesting than a rack-mount server from a “rigging”/”modding” perspective, I can’t say often enough that those cards are discontinued products, do not come with any warranty, and may or may not work in whatever system one plugs them in (I’ll write some more on that soon – but yes, it’s a 50-50 thing right now).\n\nAs such, I’d like to point out that at least for those interested in more “production” mining (in the sense of “buy it, plug it in, and let it make some money”) I would overall still suggest to not have those fancy cards distract you from the much more ready-to-go Xeon Phi four-node servers I had written about before.\n\nIn terms of those servers, the – by a wide margin – biggest concerns people have brought up over the last few months are two-fold: First, the worry about buying machines on the other side of the planet (with questions like shipping cost and time, customs fees, etc); and second, the not inconsiderable delays of actually getting the machines … because they are built to order, in high demand, often sold out, and in short, typically come with up to a few months of delivery times.\n\nFor those that need something quicker: Have a look at the latest version of the “NeonMiner” (www.neonminer.com). The guys there now offer a phi-based system (running lukMiner), and as far as I understand they have machines directly available.\n\nA bit of background: I first stumbled over the NeonMiner name by chance, when I saw one of those systems listed for sale on Amazon, several months back — but then at a pretty steep price (before the Phi “specials” kicked in), and without much mention of what software it would come with. At about the same time, the guys behind this system apparently heard about lukMiner, and contacted me through the blog. We’ve since loosely worked together, in the sense that I helped hook them up with the right contacts to get the pricing specials used by the other Phi suppliers (meaning those NeonMiner systems are now way cheaper!), and at the same time suggesting that lukMiner be preinstalled to make the systems easier to use (which they immediately did). As a result, the latest version of the NeonMiner now comes with lukMiner pre-installed, ready-to go.\n\nThough we did exchange quite some emails, I myself am not part of the NeonMiner team, nor do I even have a system at hand to “take apart” and have a closer look at. As such, I do not know what exact hardware components that system is comprised of, nor how the software setup works, etcpp; however, judging from the pictures and numbers on the website, the system appears to be a 4-node 2U “Adams Pass” system similar to what you’d get if you order from Intel, Exxact, or Colfax; probably with four Phi 7210s or 7250s (I honestly do not know which, yet, though I’d expect the latter). This 4×7210/7250 assumption would also be consistent with the hash rate of about 11+kH/s claimed on their web site, so this number is perfectly plausible to me (and though the web site doesn’t say that, since it runs lukMiner it should also run cryptonight heavy, light, etc).\n\nWhat other components (memory, disks, …?) the system may or may not come with I cannot say, nor do I know what exactly they’d cost. However, one thing the web site is very clear on (and which they’ve confirmed to me when I double-checked!) is that they have systems “in hand” right now, in the US (and apparently, it even comes with a 6-month warranty), which should address at least some of the issues I’ve mentioend above:\n\nAs such, if anybody here wants to get their hands on some 11+kH of Cryptonight/V7 hashing power in a ready-to-rack and ready-to-run system then feel free to contact them. If or when you do, make sure you mention that you found them through this blog, which – as I was told – should give you a discount over the official price. Full disclosure: If you do mention the blog I, too, will get a (small) referral fee (though I do hereby promise that by the end of the year I will donate any such referral fee to a charity!).\n\nIf any of you guys are getting any of those systems, please let me (us?) know; as said above I haven’t gotten my hands on any of those systems yet (sure, I could buy one, but have no spare power to run it right now, anyway :-/), so if anybody is willing to share their experiences on what hardware exactly is included, shipping time and cost, how to configure/update the miner, measured performance and wall-draw wattage, etc, please share!"

"I don't want to talk about it!\n\nIn this essay, I will briefly address three Christian situations/personalities with short excerpts pertaining to the title. I got to know these three men, two of them were pedophiles. Afterwards, I will raise some pointed observations in hope of raising awareness in response to those that don’t want to talk about things!\n\nAs a junior in college in 1988, I had asked the question, “Dr. Faulkner, is there any truth to the rumor that Martin Luther King was denied enrollment at Tennessee Temple University (TTU) due to race?” Dr. Faulkner was Dr. Lee Roberson’s right hand man at Highland Park Baptist Church and TTU for decades. For those unaware, the South (USA) was racially segregated at the time. Dr. Faulkner could have simply addressed this, and put an end to the rumor!\n\nRandom chance initially paired us together on a local golf course. After that day’s first round, he asked for my number and we ended up playing again on two different occasions. Dr. Faulkner was a pleasant man to be around, but his countenance quickly changed after I had asked the question about Martin Luther King. He didn’t answer my question and that was the last time that he asked me to play a round of golf! I was persona non-gratta afterwards!\n\nInstead of answering a straight up question that could have squelched a long-standing rumor, he let me know that he didn’t want to discuss it. His silence spoke volumes.\n\nAt one time, Dr. Bob Gray’s star was as bright as one gets as an Independent Baptist pastor. He was considered to be perhaps the finest pulpiteer in the country; his church’s Sunday-school numbers were amongst the nations largest; he was often in the Sword of the Lord newspaper, and he was the president of Trinity Baptist College!\n\nI was enrolled at his college in 1987 and was called into his office for “disciplinary” reasons due to two preacher’s kids getting demerits for being tardy. His associate pastor gave me the “heads up” for what I was about to encounter. He told me that he had never seen anything like this before and that he was having problems with “they’re having a meeting with me” about something so petty! He assured me that I had done nothing improper and he told me that he admired my character and work ethic. Nevertheless, I walked into a crowded room with all of the school’s “luminaries” gathered for my head.\n\nI listened with disgust as the stooges proceeded, it was clear that they had no interest to discuss things. I asked, “Did you consider what your distinguished associate pastor who knew all of the details had said? I see that no one present here was decent enough to talk with me man to man prior to this “big” meeting!” I then looked Dr. Gray straight in the eyes and said, “you ought to be ashamed of yourself!” He demanded that I apologize immediately for my statement. My last words to the man were these: “I will not apologize! I am a reasonable man; you and your staff members have no sense of equity! You’re a bunch of perverts!” I adjourned the meeting and transferred to another school! The associate pastor resigned, leaving the school as well!\n\nThose last words that I spoke to Dr. Gray proved to be prophetic in deed! Dr. Bob Gray was a pedophile and the church had covered these things up for quite some time! He was imprisoned and was awaiting trial when he died. Should you want more details, visit this link about Trinity.\n\nPS: While I didn't know at the time of Gray's pedophilia, I take great satisfaction in recognizing, 20 years earlier than the general public, and was able to look the bastard in the eyes and to call him a pervert to his face! Priceless!\n\nI once knew Donald Domelle and his family very well! I attended his church, Baptist Temple of Salinas while I was stationed in the US Army in 1983. After I graduated from TTU in 1990, I returned to California and stayed in the Domelle’s home for a few weeks. There were a lot of good memories, amongst those was the time that I took the guys to see Nolan Ryan’s sixth no-hitter in Oakland! But things changed afterwards and we grew apart. By 1993, the visits trickled down to my visiting once or twice a year. 1999 was the last time that I had spoken with Donald Domelle or his wife Margaret (she has since passed away).",
null,
"My first acquaintance with one of the victims was just prior to my leaving the church in 1984 (I received orders to West Germany). This victim came under the Domelle’s custody about the time I departed California and was adopted about the time that I returned in 1990. She was a sweet and lovely child that shared the common desire that all kids need growing up: the security and feeling that she belonged and was loved! The victim’s mother’s lifestyle choices resulted in an inappropriate environment to raise a child. So she turned to someone that she thought that she could trust to raise her daughter.\n\nIt pains me to think of all of the agony and suffering that this victim has had to endure in life, to me she isn’t just another face in the crowd! In the later years as a visitor, I noticed a rigid demeanor towards the victim, primarily from Margaret. Things as insignificant as a grain of rice falling from the victim’s fork en-route to her mouth were enough to draw the ire of the adopting mother. It must have been a daily living hell for this sweet little girl that I once knew! When she told of her abuse, nobody believed her. She was then sent away (by the Domelle’s) to another Christian school in Texas. She was engulfed in an uncritical culture that was oblivious of humanity!\n\nI don’t think that the mother’s initial decision to turn her daughter over to the Domelle’s was a dangerous decision at the time. At least two of the Domelle’s own kids were still living in the home then. But time and pressure have ways of changing a man (addressed on The Pleasure Police page). He was a man of small physical stature that after many years of praying with folks turned to preying on vulnerable children while openly occupying a pulpit.\n\nDonald Domelle was facing more that 50 criminal charges but took a plea agreement on Jan. 19, 2006 admitting to two felony counts of lewd conduct with a child and agreed to a minimum of 15 years in prison. He isn’t eligible to apply for parole until he turns 80.\n\nSince discovering this case, I have contacted the closest family member that I knew how to reach in Salinas (this was his son-in-law). My questioning about how such a close-knit family could be so “blind” and fail to notice the events within the home, church, and school went unanswered! You guessed it, “He didn’t want to talk about it!”\n\nThere was no sympathy for the victims, only the pedophile. This ex-minister started off in the Independent Baptist culture, I haven’t noticed much critical inquiry from within their movement to curb their pedophilia problems. Both pedophiles (Gray & Domelle) were Independent Baptists. The Independent Baptist ringleader Jerry Falwell once stated that the Trinity situation was a mere \"bump in the road\"! With statements like these, do you think that they have a clue?\n\nFor the sake of brevity, there is so much more that could be said here. Churches aren’t going away anytime soon. Many of us aren’t satisfied with the effort or effectiveness of churches to address what has become a problem of epidemic magnitude. I do not trust the churches to police themselves! Nor should you! I would welcome and hope that the new incoming Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services would bring new energy and critical concern in addressing these types of problems. They would certainly have my enthusiastic support!\n\nI can’t help but notice how some church folks emulate their Biblical Adam by evasion and hiding when they themselves are scrutinized or called into accountability! It’s a shame that they have chosen to retain the negative lessons of the scriptures rather than the positive! How can they teach others when they themselves have not learned?\n\nI see right through these folks. They are blinded about the plight of their fellow man and hide behind their pulpits. One senses the inner turmoil of a man that refuses to discuss something. You know one is headed in the wrong direction when they refuse to face reality. Their silence speaks, but what is says about themselves isn't admirable!\n\nThere are plenty of good men and women in churches! But the “red flags” should be raised when they do not want to discuss something. Yes, sometimes there are good reasons not to discuss things but churches have proven themselves to be unworthy of the benefit of the doubt!\n\nI am suspicious of those that want to save others from the “devil”. As well as those that insist on “teaching” others something yet they themselves are oblivious to the humanity of their fellow man! So much so that they fail to notice such things as I have addressed here such as racism and pedophilia. They do not want to talk about it, but I do!\n\n\nTo Return to the Main Page"

Understandably the doors were locked on all the vehicles, however it was nice the top was off on the Code Orange BR for viewing the interior. Black leather looked very high quality, actually the entire vehicle quality met my expectations and has a very Solid appearance. The Bronco Raptor was also grabbing the most attention, but then it's the latest model in the lineup.\n\nThe Code Orange changes shades drastically, initially as we stood behind the 4 Code Orange vehicles in a row which was on the shaded side they actually appeared different colors of red/orange, it wasn't until we seen them all on the sunny side that it was a OMG they are all Code Orange like we had expected.\n\nIn the evening sun from the front I was surprised the fender flares were metallic black, but after viewing the photo's closer it was actually road or off-road sandblasting that gave them the effect. EDIT 09Sep22, I stand corrected, flares are metallic black as confirmed on my own BR with only 7.7 miles.\n\nThe chassis was also on display and I took quite a few close up's in case any of us need details later from the top side.

"Giuseppe Uncini was an Italian sculptor and painter.\n\nHe trained at the Art Institute of Urbino and, in 1953, he moved to Rome where he began to attend the artistic panorama of the city, knowing among others Capogrossi, Afro, Cagli. Already in 1955 he was invited to participate in the Rome Quadrennial.\n\nIn 1956-57 he began the cycle of works called Terre using materials such as tuff, sand and ash. Starting in ’57, Uncini shifts his research on materials such as iron and concrete, with which he realizes the first Cementarmati which will become the stylistic code of his production.\n\nIn 1961 he obtained his first solo exhibition at the L’Attico gallery in Rome. In 1962, together with Gastone Biggi, Nicola Carrino, Nato Frascà, Achille Pace and Pasquale Santoro, he set up ‘Group Uno’ for a valorization of the social role in art: he himself stated that «those who make art must reflect thoroughly on the materials they use, in order to express a real meaning ».\n\nThe Sixties are characterized by Ferrocementi, where cement is smoothed to the point of losing its material quality and iron becomes the real protagonist of the work, determining the thickness of the cement layer. In 1966 he was invited to the Venice Biennale, where he exhibited the Strutturespazio.\n\nUncini, thinking about the relationship between objects and shadows, develops a new series of works that reach architectural dimensions and that have their best example in Porta aperta con ombra, commissioned by Palma Bucarelli for the National Gallery of Modern Art in Rome.\n\nThe last work created by Giuseppe Uncini is Epistylium a sculpture in reinforced concrete over six meters high, and made for the Mart of Rovereto."

They are expected to offset the pumping station’s energy use and provide excess power to the utility for improved transmission, reliability, and power quality.\n\nNWC President Mark Barnett told The Gleaner that the cash-strapped utility company is seeking to reduce its energy bill by 30 per cent through the initiative, noting that it accounts for 38 per cent of its overheads.\n\nThe project is expected to cost US$62.5 million and will be funded by London-based Derillion Energy.\n\n“We’re looking to put up 45 megawatts of floating solar. The intention is [for Derillion] to establish a PPA with JPS, while NWC leases the water surface,” Barnett said, referencing electricity supplier the Jamaica Public Service Company, on Tuesday. (PPA is a power purchase agreement.)\n\nThose investments are in addition to the leasing of four acres of land to facilitate the installation of inverters and batteries, among other equipment.\n\nBarnett said the NWC will have access to 10 megawatts with the intention to acquire a wheeling licence to transfer energy from the reservoir to its other facilities.\n\n“What we’re looking to do is reduce unit cost for energy. We’re looking at NRW as well as changing out our equipment. So, it’s a number of things we’re trying to do at the same time. I guess we’re behind the eight-ball,” said Barnett.\n\nThe move could be the precursor for the water company upgrading its fleet to electronic vehicles, although Barnett would not confirm that consideration.\n\nSubject to permits, the project is expected to be rolled out in phases, with completion expected in the first quarter of 2024.\n\nBy implementing the Mona Reservoir project, NWC is expected to save US$120,000 annually in the reservoir’s energy processing cost with renewable energy being generated on-site.\n\nThe overall savings to the NWC are expected to be in the region of US$2.735 million per year.\n\nMeanwhile, a desilting exercise is to be conducted in the reservoir as part of the tethering installation process.\n\nThis means that reservoir’s capacity will increase to include 768,000m3 of additional water."

"What I am about to tell you is based on actual events that happened a few years ago.\n\nOne Sunday morning I was attending church with my family. It was just a normal, ordinary, and often predictable church service. Hymns were sung, the children received their Bible story, and the Offering plate had been passed around. Now in typical Presbyterian fashion, the congregation rose to bless the Offering by singing the Doxology.\n\nOnly except we never made it to the first line of the song. As the organ played the opening, a loud THUD shook the church floors. Looking over to see the commotion, I saw a man lying on the ground.\n\nHad he fallen? I thought to myself.\n\nI was expecting him to pop back up. He didn’t. In fact, he wasn’t moving at all.\n\nI finally realized that he was unconscious and darted toward the church telephone. Going back to my EMT-Basic training, the earlier Advanced Life Support (e.g. Paramedics, Doctors) arrive, the greater the chances of survival. Despite volunteering a year for the North Fork Ambulance Association, this was my first time calling 911. I explained the situation to the dispatcher and she informed me that someone had already called it in.\n\nI returned to the sanctuary to see two members of the congregation performing CPR.\n\nSoon EMTs arrived and began to defibrillate. After two shocks from the defibrillator, the man’s pulse returned. His heart was not beating prior to this moment. This man had literally died in front of us and was brought back to life before our eyes!\n\nAlthough we had witnessed a miracle, no one felt like continuing the service. We silently exited the building with our prayers and thoughts for his recovery.\n\nIronically, the two men performing CPR were a doctor and a former coroner. From that day forward, I made sure that I attended a church that had at least one member of either profession in attendance. Because, you never know."

"A picture that is sadly all too common. Together, the tarpaulin, the stanchions and the side slats are capable of restraining 0.4 x the weight of the load. Which means that they can be included in a load-securing strategy. The manufacturer confirms this and some technical inspection authorities will even affix a label to vehicles like this, informing that the load-securing capabilities have been tested. So what do we have to worry about? After all, everything is safe and secure. Or is it??\n\nOf course, all this depends on meeting certain requirements: The whole of the load must be loaded as a tight fit against the elements concerned, must not have any sharp edges and must not be liable to tip. The load-securing effect provided by the tarpaulin and the side slats that is meant in this context relates to the loads that can be expected during normal operation. But let’s have a closer look at the way this consignment was loaded.",
null,
"The first thing that crossed our minds when we saw this picture was “bulk-loaded aluminium section”. Anyone who packages their consignments so badly and secures them even worse when putting them on the road clearly doesn’t place any worth on what they are producing or processing. Quite apart from the fact that they clearly have no idea of the responsibility they are taking on when loading a vehicle.",
null,
"If the packages are so unstable as they are in this case, they must be reinforced using strong intermediate dunnage to allow them to be treated as a single “stable” load block. And because such dunnage is only a makeshift remedy, we would urgently recommend the use of loop lashings to secure the load to the sides. And we would recommend doing so around at least two different layers.\n\nAs far as securing the load in the direction of travel is concerned, we are also at a loss. The aluminium section is not packaged at the ends, at least not in such a way that any conventional means of securing could be attached effectively. Perhaps we would make use of pallets that had been stood on end and through which squared lumber had been passed to create something approaching a uniform front end to the load. And again, we would recommend doing so in front of at least two different layers. It would probably be impossible to use the end wall for reasons of load distribution.",
null,
"The packaging we can see is made up of plastic sheeting, corrugated cardboard, wooden slats and plastic strapping. In the way it has been implemented, the best the packaging achieves is to bundle the load to a certain extent. The pieces of squared lumber that are enclosed under the slats using plastic strapping are intended to allow the forks of a forklift truck to pass under the load. If the vehicle were to have to brake sharply, they would probably tip over. The wooden slats are there to protect the aluminium section from the pressure of the plastic strapping. They do not form a load unit that is capable of being stacked. So, once again, this kind of packaging serves primarily to bundle the load. Stacking these “bundles” led to this accident as the vehicle rounded a right-hand bend and represented a risk to other road users.\n\nWe always argue that a good level of friction contributes more than 50 percent to good load securing. But in this case, the packaging is so poor that it is not possible to make effective use of friction to secure the load. If we were to place anti-slip mats on the loading surface in this case, the “packaging” would probably immediately fail in the very bottom layer if the vehicle had to brake sharply.\n\nToday, we have to repeat what we have already said before: Good packaging is the prerequisite for good load securing. The poor drivers who are simply given loads like this deserve our sympathy."

"Neo Kuma Ventures launches Britain’s first venture capital fund dedicated solely to psychedelic healthcare today. The fund has already attracted millions of pounds to invest, but has no set cap and will continue to draw venture capital through 2021.\n\nNeo Kuma Ventures, a London-based Venture Capital firm, will use the fund to invest in “the most exciting, high quality and scientifically sound players in the industry.”\n\nThe newly formed firm has an investment thesis focused on clinically proven psychedelic medicines which it believes will hit the market in the next five years.\n\nNeo Kuma Ventures co-founder Sean Mclintock said: “As the medical benefits of psychedelics become more well-known and regulators steadily increase their embrace of these types of drugs, the industry is set for a boom. While much of the conversation on psychedelics is taking place in the US, Europe is the true hub of the burgeoning psychedelic healthcare sector.\n\n“We look forward to investing in the most exciting, high quality and scientifically-sound European players in the industry to facilitate their ground-breaking research.”\n\nThe fundraising underscores the growing appeal in the re-emergence of psychedelic medicine following the approval of several previously outlawed drugs to treat mental illnesses.\n\nParallels to the rise of psychedelic healthcare have been drawn to the medicinal cannabis industry which in the US surged from an estimated total value of $2 billion in 2014 to an estimated $35 billion in 2020.\n\nLast year a new esketamine nasal spray by Johnson & Johnson was approved for use in the US and Europe to treat adults suffering with treatment-resistant depression. According to Dr David Nutt at Imperial College London, this breakthrough marked the first major advance in the treatment of depression since the late 1980s.\n\nIn the US, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) also recently designated psilocybin therapy — a hallucinogenic substance found in magic mushrooms – as a “breakthrough therapy” in treating major depressive disorder (MDD).\n\nLast year, in the UK the NHS started prescribing its first cannabis medicine for epilepsy.\n\nResearch by the World Health Organization found that one in four people will be affected by a mental or neurological disorder in their lifetime, and one in 20 will be severe cases.\n\nIn England, the Centre for Mental Health has predicted that up to 10 million people – almost a fifth of the population – will need mental health support as a direct consequence of Covid-19."

"London - Ahead of the auction in London on 2 May, highlights from the Art of the Islamic and Indian Worlds Including Oriental Rugs and Carpets are touring to Dubai from 19-23 March. This is a chance for discerning collectors and art enthusiasts to view the exquisite craftsmanship and diversity of works from this category. Highlights include a monumental Imperial Mamluk Qur’an, complete with the name and date of the scribe, with a hugely impressive full page dedication to Sultan Qaytbay (estimate: £500,000-800,000, illustrated above). Remarkable for its elegant script and richly gilded illumination on an extraordinarily large scale, this manuscript was commissioned for the last great Mamluk Sultan, Qaytbay (r. 1468-96) and presents a rare example of the production of opulent royal Qur’ans, characteristic of the 300 year-long reign of the Mamluk Sultans. This rare volume is fresh to the market and will be presented alongside the Pommersfelden 'polonaise' carpets, two silk and metal-thread rugs from Isfahan, which have remained together since they were first woven over 400 years ago (estimate: £600,000-800,000 and estimate: £550,000-750,000). Commissioned in the Persian court ateliers of Shah Abbas the Great (1502-1722) at the beginning of the 17th century, they entered the lavish and influential court of Augustus the Strong, Saxon Elector and future king of Poland. In 1695, they were reputedly gifted to Lothar Franz von Schönborn, Archbishop of Mainz and Arcchancellor of the Holy Roman Empire where they remained in one of the most important and illustrious German baroque collections for over three hundred years. In astonishing condition for their age, they have never-before been seen on the open market and epitomise the very best of Safavid art.\n\nThe sale is further highlighted by an Ottoman tombak flask (Matara) from the late 15th or early 16th century (estimate: £200,000-300,000). Of superb proportions and outstanding quality, this object reflects the refined taste of the Ottoman court. Discerning collectors can appreciate the imitation stitching which runs along both sides of the upper ‘seam’, a feature deriving straight from the leather originals. A truly magnificent piece of early Ottoman metalwork, this is an opportunity to acquire a museum quality piece - there are two other known examples of this form in tombak, one resides in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, the other in the British Museum.\n\nAlso on view in Dubai is one of only four paintings made by the remarkable and defiantly individual Muhammad Murad Samarqandi. Produced in the early 17th century, Four Young Scholars in Discussion, bears the signature of Muhammad Murad Samarqandi, an enigmatic artist whose rare works were created at a time of profound change and development in the Iranian and Indian artistic worlds (estimate: £200,000-300,000).\n\nPlanispheric astrolabes were generally used for charting astrological bodies, finding the direction of the qibla, and determining the times of prayer. The auction features a fine Safavid brass astrolabe from the 17th century Safavid Iran, a period which experienced a resurgence in astrolabe-making of the most ornate designs (estimate: £100,000-150,000). Superbly and accurately engraved, the present lot was made by Muhammad Zaman, a highly celebrated astrolabist and astronomer who flourished in Mashhad during the second half of the 17th century. Only a handful of astronomical instruments made by Muhammad Zaman have survived, making this example truly unique, and a true testament to the scientific knowledge and ability of the maker."

"People used to accuse artists who took the corporate dollar of ‘selling out’. It’s a phrase that seems to have fallen from fashion, perhaps because art has become so aligned with entertainment in the popular imagination that it’s hard for people to see what ‘selling out’ out even means any more. Why would you criticise an artist for selling out? Isn’t the whole point of making art to have something to sell?\n\n‘Sell Out’ has never been an entirely fair form of abuse to throw at artists. Like that other standard insult of those who seek to dismiss the value of art, ‘Pretentious’, it’s both true and irrelevant at the same time. All art is pretentious…until the point where it isn’t anymore. The difference is often no more than a sliver of perception. Artists who want to continue making art have to find ways to sell what they make to someone. And so the many compromises of the professional artist (like the professional anybody) arise.\n\nBut is your art anything more than a product to sell? Do you actually have something to say, or are you speaking just for the sake of being heard? It’s OK to sell your art, but if the only purpose of your art is to sell, then you’re missing the point.",

"Vincent Kompany is already widely regarded as one of the best defenders to have ever featured in the Premier League.\n\nThe stalwart captain has marshalled the Mark Hughes’ squad, Kompany has remained the constant thread at the back over the past eight years.\n\nA cruel total of 33 injuries since his arrival in England have robbed the player of a chunk of his recent career, and it would be a sad end to a great career at the top were he to spend his remaining playing days as a bit-part player. If he can prove his fitness, there’s no doubt that he could still do a job for new boss Pep Guardiola.\n\nAlong with Sergio Aguero, Kompany has been one of the most astute buys of the Sheikh Mansour Etihad era. He has helped the club to every domestic trophy and become a firm fans' favourite thanks to his calming influence on a team that has often had to do things the hard way.\n\nWinning the league twice is probably his greatest achievement, as he steadied a wobbling team with typical assuredness at the back. He has been present at various key stages of the ‘City project', and it is clear that they would not have made so much progress without their skipper.\n\nHe achieved everything he promised and more, matching the ambitions of the owners with world class performances on the pitch. Under Guardiola, there’s still time to add to his trophy tally if his body is willing.\n\nWhen fit, Kompany is undoubtedly one of the best players in the Premier League. He’s the perfect defender, with strength and aerial ability to match good distribution and solid tackling.\n\nHe is an intelligent defender who finds it easy to read danger, and he has an eye for goal from set pieces too (13 Premier League goals). Now in his thirties, the Belgian is, perhaps, entering the twilight of his career – but in his prime he was unmovable, emanating confidence and improving the players around him.\n\nAt his best he has pace to burn, but speed has never been the be-all and end-all of his game. He reads play well, and is a proactive defender, willing to meet players and stick a foot in if needed. His style probably caused the niggling injuries that have dogged him in the latter stages of his career, but for a time he was beastly, brushing aside all strikers that dared to take him on.\n\nThe Belgian captain is determined to prove he still has what it takes to help the cause in Manchester and under new national coach Roberto Martinez. Supporters, team-mates and Guardiola alike will hope he can.",

"The dramatic 2012 championship will, without doubt, be seen as the watershed moment for Kompany at City. The mind might flit to Aguero and David Silva when we think of City’s early success in years to come, but they also relied on Kompany heavily throughout those years. Bringing the Belgian in was money well spent, and long-term replacement John Stones will do well to match his achievements over the next decade.\n\nA true professional during his time as captain, Kompany's growth from a young prodigy to world star has been synonymous with the club's own rise to new heights during the influx of money at Eastlands.\n\nNo matter who Stones is the latest player touted to take over the mantle, but for now it would be great to see them playing in tandem.\n\nRegardless of whether he fits into Guardiola’s masterplan or not, Kompany deserves to be remembered as one of the best players the Premier League has ever seen. He could still command a starting spot at most of City's top-four rivals, and his absence is keenly felt when out of the side.\n\nEven after their remarkable start to the current season, Guardiola is yet to settle on a centre-half pairing: even full-back Aleksandar Kolarov has been deployed there.\n\nKompany is slowly making his return after four months out but his leadership and calmness would undoubtedly help the team get to grips with a new style of play as the season gets into full swing."

"The world has lost one of its most outspoken defenders of women’s rights. The Egyptian writer, medical doctor, and activist, Nawal El Saadawi, has passed away at the age of 89 in Cairo on March 21, Arab Mother’s Day. People around the world have been commemorating her death. One reader wrote “you left the life that we live, my saint, on Mother’s Day, as if you wanted to reassure us, as mothers, that you are the spiritual mother of the women and girls of our generation.” A sentiment shared by many who saw her as an inspiration.\n\nBorn in the village Kafr Tahlan in the lower Nile Delta October 27, 1931, El Saadawi graduated as a medical doctor in 1955 and practiced as a physician in rural Egypt. There she often treated young girls who were injured as a result of Female Genital Mutilation (FGM). She herself had undergone FGM at the age of six.\n\nIn the “Hidden Face of Eve”, which was first published in Arabic under the title “The Naked Face of the Arab Woman” in 1977, she describes how she was dragged out of her bed one night and carried into the bathroom, how she felt the cold tiles on her naked body, and how her mouth was covered while undergoing the procedure.\n\nShe describes the incredible physical pain as well as the shock when she spotted her mother standing among the smiling crowds. It was a defining moment for her that turned her into a life-long campaigner against FGM, which was criminalized in Egypt in 2008 but remains widespread.\n\nHer childhood remained a defining period that she would revisit in many of her writings. El Saadawi states that her parents were both educated. Her father was a university graduate and served as a General Controller of Education for the Province of Menoufia in the Delta region. Her mother was French-educated. She says that her mother used to say that boys and girls are equal, but that she constantly felt being less. She observed her aunt being slapped in the face for giving birth to three girls and her uncle threatening to divorce her should she ever give birth to a girl again.\n\nShe would later write that from the moment she opened her eyes she felt that the utterance of the word “bint” (girl) was almost always pronounced with a frown. She describes how her grandmother once told her that it would have been better had she been born a boy like her brother. Her accounts demonstrate that women were not only victims. They are instrumental in upholding the patriarchal order; in the end patriarchy works most effectively if the suppressed believe in the legitimacy of their own subordination.\n\nEl Saadawi wrote about many issues deemed controversial, including virginity, sexual abuse, and prostitution. She showed that separation of the sexes, concepts of morality, religious extremism, economic deprivation, and limited physical space lead to different forms of abuse. She pointed to two philosophical and theological trends in the Islamic tradition that uneasily sit together: a positive attitude towards sexual pleasure and fulfillment but viewing the sexual power of women as a source of fitna, strife.\n\nAccording to El Saadawi, girls are brought up to know that their sexual organs are taboo, and that their honour and the honour of their family depend on their virginity. “She loses her honour and virginity. The man never loses anything.” The concluded that, a society where sexual relationships outside of marriage remain taboo while the economic hurdles of marriage remain high ultimately leads to sexual frustration.\n\nHer activism and the taboo topics she spoke about brought her in confrontation with the Egyptian regime as well as other social conservative actors. In 1972 she lost her job as Director of Public Health at the Egyptian Ministry of Health when her first book “Women and Sex” was republished after having been banned for over two decades.\n\nShe was critical of the Sadat government which consciously worked to strengthen Islamist actors in the 1970s as a counterbalance to leftist opposition. She was briefly jailed as an enemy of the state during the presidency of Anwar Sadat in 1981 but released after his assassination in October of that same year.\n\nAppreciated and celebrated in Western countries and a frequent speaker at Western Universities, El Saadawi was also critical of how the story of “the” Arab woman was often woven into a single narrative. In an article for the Journal of Middle East Women’s Studies, she complained that a book was only seen as marketable if it showed that “tyranny or masculine violence is a Muslim genre”.\n\nThat market did not tolerate comparisons to the suppression of women in Christianity or Judaism and it could not stomach resistance to Western intervention in Iraq or support for Palestine. She complained about how publishers in Germany or the United States would change the titles of her works or use veiled women on the cover to attract a bigger audience.\n\nEl Saadawi advocated for international solidarity among women, but she grappled with the question of how such solidarity could be exercised\n\nShe criticized the portrayal of the discrimination Arab women face as a result of culture and religion without taking political and economic factors into consideration, and debunked this attitude as hiding the imperialist project that contributes to the very economic exploitation and underdevelopment that also significantly affects women.\n\nFor El Saadawi women’s rights were ultimately political, and political and economic emancipation went hand in hand. Full emancipation meant freedom from all forms of exploitation including economic, political, sexual or cultural. El Sadaawi emphasized that the oppression of women was in no way characteristic of Middle Eastern countries alone but indeed a world-wide phenomenon, with just its manifestations differing from context to context. She was eager to stress that “feminism was not invented by American women.” It was not a concept of the global north that had merely been received by the global south; feminism was actively shaped by the global south.\n\nIn the end, her fame in Europe and the United States was also likely also due to the fact that she wrote about topics that resonated with images held by Western audiences about “the” Arab woman. Ultimately, it was challenging to strike a balance between radical honesty and an unapologetic account all the while not confirming existing stereotypes. A challenge many scholars who are not comparativists and who write about issues concerning women in the global south face.\n\nEl Saadawi advocated for international solidarity among women, but she grappled with the question of how such solidarity could be exercised. She emphasized the importance of an understanding of the particular contexts people operate in. If the specific context is not taken into consideration, “enthusiasm and the spirit of solidarity on their own may lead feminist movements to take a stand that is against the interests of the liberation movements in the East, and therefore also harmful to the struggle for women’s emancipation.”\n\nSolidarity was and ultimately remains only possible when acknowledging commonalities as well as differences, focusing on underlying causes of submission and discrimination, and by acknowledging the humanity of the other and meeting them at eye level – a reminder that resonates today.\n\nIn 2011, she joined the protests on Tahrir Square against the Mubarak regime, but was critical of the political developments that followed\n\nMany of the issues she touched on remain relevant today in Egypt and beyond. El Saadawi had pointed out that women’s participation in the job market, the public sphere, does not necessarily translate to equality in the home, the private sphere. She observed that women had entered the job market as well as politics, but ultimately remained unequal in family law.\n\nThe Covid-19-pandemic has thrown this fact into sharp relief as the overwhelming burden of home schooling, housework, and child care is falling on women; violence against women has surged throughout the world. Meanwhile in Egypt a controversial draft family law was published February 23rd which has been heavily criticized by the Egyptian Centre for Women’s Rights for treating women as legal minors.\n\nEl Saadawi remained politically active throughout her life. In 2011, she joined the protests on Tahrir Square against the Mubarak regime, but was critical of the political developments that followed. When the Muslim Brotherhood won the first post-Mubarak elections, she accused them of hijacking the revolution. After the military coup of Abdul Fatah al-Sisi in 2013, she became a supporter of the Sisi regime. In a BBC Arabic interview in 2018 she accused the Western media of smearing the image of al-Sisi.\n\nSaadawi’s defence of the Sisi regime and her failure to condemn the human rights violations committed by it are a sharp break with her previous decades-long track record of opposing illegitimate political power. Questionable as this stance may have been, it does not negate her achievements, her sacrifice, and the impressive body of work that she has left the world.\n\nby Ahmed Saied Hassanein\nThe Far Right and the Middle East"

"A leaked memo from the Office of the Chief Information Security Officer (OCISO) delivered alarming news about the state of cybersecurity at the White House.\n\nAcquired and published online by Axios, the memo was included in a resignation letter from Branch Chief of White House Computer Network Defense Dimitrios Vastakis. In the document, Vastakis details several concerns about staffing and organizational policies that he felt were harming cybersecurity at the White House and causing personnel to leave “at an alarming rate.”\n\nVastakis took particular issue with the recent decision to fold the OCISO into the Office of the Chief Information Officer.\n\n“This is a significant shift in the proprieties of senior leadership where business operations and quality of service take precedence over securing the President’s network,” Vastakis wrote.\n\nThe memo comes in the wake of several resignations or terminations from the office, which was established in 2014 in response to a successful Russian cyberattack.\n\n“It is my express opinion that the remaining incumbent OCISO staff is being systematically targeted for removal from the Office of Administration (OA) through various means,” wrote Vastakis, concluding that “the White House is posturing itself to be electronically compromised once again.”\n\nOther former cybersecurity officials for the White House have expressed similar concerns and misgivings with the current administration’s cyber policies.\n\n“The termination of the cyber czar position compounded with placing individuals like Giuliani in charge of cyber has created the perfect storm,” wrote Tom Kellermann, the former cybersecurity commissioner for the Obama administration. “We are under siege by an axis of evil in cyberspace and we must appreciate that American cybersecurity is tenuous as we fight an ongoing cyber insurgency.”"

"Photography courtesy of BBC News, The remnants of damage shown inside Notre Dame\n\nPhotography courtesy of BBC News, The remnants of damage shown inside Notre Dame\n\nOn April 15, 2019, an accidental fire by reconstructionists burned across the Notre Dame Cathedral. Millions of people all over the world reached out with their grief, condolences and assistance. Now, while this is a beautiful show of the world’s solidarity and ability to come together to protect a historical monument and piece of art, I think it’s a shame that government and other billionaires can’t cohesively come together to solve a lot of our world’s pressing issues.\n\nAccording to France24, a European news source based in Paris, European billionaires were able to amass €850 million (over $900 million in U.S. currency) alone. Here in the U.S., Tim Cook, Hillary Clinton, Disney and the government either donated or promoted donating to the cathedral, bringing the total to over $1 billion in less than a week.\n\nIt is said that while the fire caused damage, many pieces and artworks were protected and already out of harm’s way because the cathedral was in the process of being rebuilt. So fortunately, the damage done is not as heavily unrecoverable as people feared. However, on social media alone, you can see how billionaires and politicians in Europe and the U.S. are treating this as a publicity race rather than giving donations out of necessity.\n\nThis behavior has spurred controversy both in Europe and in the Americas. When Trump and the White House offered to assist and donate to the church, I couldn’t help but think of Puerto Rico, Flint or all the other black churches and mosques burned downed by U.S. terrorists. I couldn’t help but think of our current pressing concerns like climate change, financial debt, appropriate working wages, and more. People are always asking, “Where are we going to get the money from to make these changes?” Yet, somehow, we always have money to preserve or create new monuments.\n\nNow, I don’t see anything wrong with preserving or protecting monuments, especially the Notre Dame. It’s an irreplaceable testament to centuries of art and culture, but the fact remains that the Notre Dame is not the only important historical and religious monument.\n\nIt’s not even known where the unused money in the recovery efforts will go in the coming years, and that’s something I don’t think many are considering. I question why America, a country who has become so insistent on caring for their own people first and foremost, will reach out to provide foreign aid for a landmark that is very much protected and recoverable by its own country, but not extend that help to people who are already here or want to come here.\n\nUltimately, I have mixed feelings. When the fire was happening, I was heartbroken. When people were becoming angry and pessimistic about the possibility of recovery, I was frustrated. When I heard the Notre Dame could be and would be recovered, I was elated. However, now that I’m seeing this race to see who can donate the most to the church, and I know how money — and the lack of it — seems to be the excuse for anyone against progressive changes to the world’s issues, I am sorely disappointed to see where everyone’s priorities lie.\n\nIf you’re interested in donating to recovery efforts of areas that desperately need help, click the links below:\n\nLight the Lamps of Masjid Al-Aqsa"

"Ponte de Lima festival par excellence, one of the oldest in the country (it is said to have been celebrated since 1125), and very similar to any of the Galician fairs where there are also dances, fireworks, gastronomy, concerts or processions. Celebrated as the end of summer (2nd weekend in September), many activities invade the routine and attract visitors from all-over, everyone in search of music, joy and coexistence. The “news”: giants and big heads, concertinas, popular songs or chicken breeding contests. The festival is celebrated in honor of Nossa Senhora das Dores, much loved in pilgrimages (elected as “the biggest live congress of Portuguese culture”), and the name seems to have separated from that of “Feira Antiga” (Old Fair)\n\nThe idea is to perpetuate the festival, transmitting to new generations the illusion, the memory of traditions and their validity in today’s world, as a sign of an event that connects people from the Lima region and beyond. Feiras Novas are a splendid mirror of the past, projected into the present and awaited by everyone in the future.",

"More than 800 years of celebration have contributed to its legacy, in the form of a tradition of pure material and intangible heritage.\n\nThe 2022 edition, after a break due to the health situation, will take place again, if conditions allow, in early September, for almost a week of festivities. The program is expected to be loaded with all sorts of musical, sociocultural and religious activities."

"Writer/Director Rian Johnson (yes the one that the internet thinks ruined Star Wars) brings us a traditional murder mystery with an impossibly starry cast. Think the bastard lovechild of Agatha Christie and Clue with a touch of Downton Abbey thrown in for good measure.\n\nA quirky private detective (Daniel Craig rocking another shocking accent) is hired to investigate the death of a family patriarch. Everyone has a motive and pretty much everyone is an arsehole. Whodunnit?\n\nNow I haven’t written a sick sense review for many, many months. Partly because of the shitstorm that was moving house but partly because I haven’t been mortally offended by any movies recently. Apart from this one. So here, in advance of its UK DVD release later this month, is my take on Knives Out.",

"Why did no one warn Zoe, his eyes seemed to say.\n\nThis is a bloody good film, it’s well acted, well written and has a multi-talented cast (including the ever bad-ass Jamie Lee Curtis) and for the most part I enjoyed it. Rian Johnson writes a cracking screenplay (shut up Star Wars fans) and has seemingly created a brand new detective franchise with this darkly comic mystery. Also who doesn’t love a film which has a chair made of knives as it’s centrepiece/Chekov’s gun?\n\nChris Evans makes for a convincing bad guy (even if it was kinda easy to guess) and I’ve been dying to see him in a role like this for a while. I’ve always had a secret suspicion that underneath his caring and affable exterior lies the beating cold heart of a psychopath and this movie doesn’t do anything to dissuade me of that. The rest of the family are also suitably cretinous and their dysfunctional relationship makes this a cut above your usual posh-person whodunnit. The whole thing moves along at a cracking pace and the dark humour kept me entertained from start to finish, even if you do guess the ending it doesn’t really matter.\n\nThe one decent human being in the movie, Nurse Marta (played by the lovely Ana de Armas, shortly to be seen alongside a non-shitty-accented Daniel Craig in the new Bond film) was the main character and also my main source of angst. Who the fuck throws up whenever they tell a lie? I’ll tell you who, characters in a movie which needs a plot device, that’s who. Seriously though, they couldn’t have picked any other symptom – passing out? Pooping? Anything else but that. Think of the emetophobes! There are three incidences of unnecessary vomiting in this but they’re well-telegraphed enough for you to be able to avoid watching if you so choose. The only mild ‘surprise vomit’ comes right at the end and is, I assume, the whole reason for this plot point being written in. *Shakes fist* Damn you, Rian Johnson, damn you.\n\nSo would I recommend spending your hard-earned cash on this when it is released in the UK on 30 March? If you’re a complete emetophobe probably not, it does spoil the whole film but if you can cope then I would suggest watching, with a mate, from behind a ‘safety cushion’. It definitely lives up to the hype."

"Read More\nThis carved figure is a representation of the Maori people’s original ancestor. This Hei Tiki pendant was carved in a superb piece of nephrite (pounamu in the Maori language). This greenstone, which is found only on the South Island of New Zealand, was a highly valuable material and particularly prized by the Maori for its hardness and its color.\nThe figure is shown head-on, its head leaning to the left, and sticking its tongue out – the symbol of the power of the warrior in Maori art. The facial features (bridge of the nose, mouth, eyes) are delicate, carved deeply into the stone.\nHei Tiki pendants were worn around the neck on a narrow cord of woven fibers. These ornaments were prestigious, and were passed on from generation to generation. Hei Tiki were said to confer the protection of the ancestors of the clan to the wearer, with the clan’s affiliation going back to Tiki, the primordial man."

"Life on the line\n\nOn May 8, 2018, line personnel from Shelby Electric Cooperative (SEC) had an ordinary safety training session. Pole top rescue training involves a 200-pound dummy situated at the top of a utility pole, and the lineman needs to get it to the ground safely to perform any necessary Red Cross life-saving skills of first aid and CPR.\n\nThis simulation helps linemen prepare for a situation if a fellow lineworker needs help. On this day, the safety training session turned into a real-life rescue mission when Kevin Carlen, forestry line foreman, suffered a sudden cardiac arrest at the top of the pole.\n\nHis fellow co-workers and safety instructor immediately sprang into action. The actions that these men made ultimately helped save Carlen’s life. Because of their quick response, the 14 men involved were recently awarded the American Red Cross Certificate of Merit, which is the highest award given by the organization.\n\nOn the day of the incident, Thad France, the Association of Illinois Electric Cooperative’s (AIEC) manager of lineworker and apprentice development, was instructing the SEC line personnel. “We had probably gone through seven or eight guys,” he says. “Kevin went up and actually did well.”",

"Lineman Cary Bryson was in the bucket truck resetting the course. “[Carlen] went up and did an excellent job,” he says. “He helped me hang the dummy, and I was moving back to get out for the next guy. Somebody yelled… I looked down and Kevin was leaning back.”\n\nCarlen’s safety gear held him securely to the pole, but he was unresponsive. His legs were kicked out of the pole, his arms were dangling, and he was bent over backward.\n\n“I went over to the pole and started yelling his name,” France says. “I noticed [Carlen] was making a gargling sound. I first thought he was choking on something. Then I saw the color of him… I knew something was pretty bad.”\n\n“There was just a second or two there of almost disbelief of what was happening, and then instantly all the guys around jumped in,” adds Brian Chevalier, construction superintendent.\n\nBeing in the bucket truck, Bryson got to Carlen first and was able to quickly wrap a rope around Carlen as Nick Dunaway, lineman, climbed the pole to assist. Several other men got into position to help bring Carlen down with the handline.\n\n“It was a scary deal,” lineman Adam Schrock says. “When we first went to lift him up, I could hear the last breaths coming out… It was a little frightening. I first thought we were injuring him worse.”\n\nLineman Nick Sloan called 9-1-1 and ran to the road to await the ambulance, and lineman Jake Kull ran to get an AED machine. An AED, or automated external defibrillator, is a portable device that helps during a cardiac arrest. It provides instructions and delivers an electric shock to re-establish a normal heart rhythm.\n\nIn the meantime, Carlen was brought safely to the ground and lineman Jerry Johnston started performing CPR until the AED arrived. Johnston then followed the instructions and the AED gave Carlen his first shock. When the EMTs arrived, they replaced the AED with a machine of their own and said Carlen’s heart was stable.\n\n“I never felt relief like that before,” France says. “It was just the most unusual feeling I ever felt.”\n\nBecause these men were well-trained, their instincts kicked in. Everybody knew exactly what to do and worked well together to save the life of a fellow lineworker.\n\n“It was a terrible situation, but it couldn’t have happened in a better place,” Chevalier says. “All the guys were around, trained. It was just a reaction. Everybody jumped in and grabbed a job and worked together.”\n\nAlthough these men helped save a life, they don’t consider themselves heroes. “We don’t look at it that way,” France says. “What we look at is we did our job… Everybody worked together, everybody picked a job, and everybody just got it done. The outcome, [we] allowed this guy to be able to see his wife and be able to see his kids. It just puts things in perspective.”",

"According to the American Red Cross, the Certificate of Merit is one of three awards given in its lifesaving awards program, which has roots dating back to 1911. This program has awarded more than 330 individuals who have all played a role in saving more than 140 lives. The certificate is signed by the honorary chairman of the American Red Cross, U.S. President Donald Trump.\n\n“I truly believe a real hero is the man that continues to fight even when he is scared,” Morris says. “As I think back to May 8, 2018, I cannot even fathom the emotion around every one of you at that moment. Because of your quick and calm thinking, Kevin Carlen lives on and is with us today. I hope that through this story, we can learn the importance of CPR and first aid training.”\n\nToday, Carlen is doing well. He even helped present the awards to the 14 men who helped save his life. “I’m glad we have such a good group. They’re my brothers,” he says. “As the saying goes, ‘I’m my brother’s keeper.’ And they performed that task perfect.”\n\nFor the full story of the pole top rescue, visit icl.coop to watch a video by Paul Dow, coordinator\nof video productions at the Association of Illinois Electric Cooperatives.\n\nTo learn more about Certificate of Merit and other American Red Cross awards, go to LifesavingAwards.org.\n\nFor training on first aid, CPR and AED, visit redcross.org for details.",

"Description\nThis is a map edit for the original Metroid. Screens, enemy and item placement, palettes, text, and more are all changed. The primary goal was to make the game more playable - the discerning player will note the careful placement of platforms and enemies to make jumps easier. However, beating the game will not be a cinch. Items are much more difficult to get, corridors are contorted into winding mazes, and many of the energy tanks have been completely eliminated.",

")\n% in 2:30\nRead More\nReally good hack!\nDoesn't rely much on original NEStroid to get its ideas and rooms.\nEvery area is much larger than it is in vanilla, especially Brinstar.\nTourian was changed a lot (the escape was really cool too), so that gets bonus points.\nKraid is accessible early but he's extremely difficult to kill.\nAlmost every single item that you come across (aside from missiles, of course)is basically needed to beat the game. E-tanks are pretty scarce, only a max of 5 I believe.\nOverall, this is a really good hack and I totally recommend it.\nFinished.\ntime is rta\n\n)\n90% in 1:35\nRead More\nThe first Metroid hack ever, and it's actually pretty solid. It avoids a lot of flaws endemic to many, many later Nestroid hacks, such as being ambushed when popping out of doors, and it even manages to avoid a problem that plagued the original game: getting sniped by pipe bugs in the middle of a door transition. In other words, the designer of this hack was quite aware of the limitations of the original game, as well as the tools they had back in 1999.\n\nIf I had to level a complaint against this, it would be that the world design is a bit too straightforward (Kraid's Lair especially), and that there aren't any hidden secrets -- though folks who find vanilla Nestroid too obtuse and hard to navigate might appreciate those facts.\n\nStill one of the best Nestroid hacks, even 21 years later."

"With two losses in as many games, India still have a chance of making it to the final, provided they beat Syria by a huge margin in their next match, and hope Tajikistan beat DPR Korea in the other.\n\nWhile Lallianzuala Chhangte, and Sunil Chhetri scored one each to reduce the margin for India, DPR Korea captain Jong Il Gwan was the star of the show scoring two, and assisting another. Furthermore, Sim Hyon Jin, and Ri Un Chol, and Ri Hyon Kin scored one apiece for the winners. Indian National Team Head Coach Igor Stimac said that there was “courage, and confidence on display in the second half.”\n\n“In the second-half, we came out with out with heads up. We had the courage, and confidence when we decided to play football. In the first-half, we played without courage and self- confidence,” he stated in the post-match press conference. “I gave the players the chance to play for India and asked them to enjoy their football. But if you do not show courage, and fight you cannot win,” he added.\n\n“In the second-half, we started taking responsibility, and created chances. We were dangerous in front of their goal. But it was difficult to keep shape, and go up and down continuously. But I’m proud of the way they played,” the Coach explained.\n\nDown 0-3 in the first half, a couple of changes by India Head Coach Igor Stimac at half-time brought back the thrust for India. The introduction of Lallianzuala Chhangte, and Udanta Singh in place of Manvir Singh, and Brandon Fernandes provided India the much-needed impetus.\n\nThe Blue Tigers pulled one back soon when Sunil Chhetri latched on to a stray ball, and played Chhangte through the channel. The latter, took control, and smashed it into the bottom corner. However, Ri Chol soon added a fourth for Korea, after being played through by captain Gwon.\n\nIn the 71st minute, Sunil Chhetri managed another one for India – his 71st International goal off a cross from Udanta. India next play Syria in their last group league match on July 16."

"'For the teachers, you gotta know I got your back' | Governor Lamont discusses reopening schools\n\nLamont said he is confident the state will have a back to school plan ready to go that will allow children to return to the classroom safely come fall.",
null,
"Lamont spent a good portion of his press conference Thursday talking about education. He said he is confident the state will have a back to school plan ready to go that will allow children to return to the classroom safely come fall.\n\nAccording to health officials, this fall could bring a resurgence of COVID-19 activity and if it does Lamont said Connecticut school districts will be ready to protect students, teachers, and staff.\n\nPatrice McCarthy said the Connecticut Association of Boards of Education has received concerns from teachers, many are ready to go back to the classroom due to the importance of in-person learning, but also don’t want to put themselves or children in harm's way.\n\n“Teachers like everyone else have a range of feelings about their comfort level, [butt with] we also know some teachers have significant medical conditions and their doctors may advise them it's not safe to enter the classroom,” McCarthy said.\n\n“For the teachers, you gotta know I got your back -everything I've done to date we’ve aired on the side of caution,” Lamont said.\n\nThe current back to school plan consists of three options for reopening---a normal five day a week in person schedule, online-distance learning or a mix of in-person and online instruction.\n\n“There’s some early surveys coming out of Stonington and Fairfield where it looks like probably 15%- 20% of the parents may would like to take advantage of the home school option starting off,” Lamont said.\n\nAccording to the Governor, we can expect a final decision on how schools will reopen whether it be in-person, online or a mix of both, in August.\n\nI will hold my daily news briefing with updates on COVID-19 today at 4:00PM. We'll be joined by former FDA commissioner @ScottGottliebMD. Tune in to hear more about Connecticut’s education reopen plan from one of America’s leading public health experts. pic.twitter.com/KfpzLbYwMc\n\nRELATED: Can a pregnant woman spread the coronavirus to her fetus?"

"I was surprised to discover just how much of a precursor Edward Dmytryk’s serial-killer-with-a-rifle flick is to Don Siegel’s Dirty Harry, the latter film’s Scorpio killer even terrorising the same city (poor San Francisco) with both films featuring sequences of the rooftops as a place of danger and ‘death from above’. Most surprising of all, in some ways, is how The Sniper is intellectually perhaps more sophisticated than the 1971 film- the villain of the 1952 noir is handsome, all-American guy Eddie Miller (Arthur Franz) who knows he’s mentally disturbed and keeps trying to stop what he’s doing, actually trying get caught and returned to hospital. Andrew Robinson’s Scorpio killer looks shady, acts crazy and is just plain evil, enjoying what he’s doing- a frankly one-dimensional villain, fitting the Siegel film’s simplistic black and white narrative. Film noir of course, for all it being actually filmed in black and white, is thankfully often more nuanced than might be expected, and The Sniper is indeed more complex than the later exploitation flick.\n\nIts impossible to over-estimate the impact this film likely had back in 1952, considering its subject matter and quite graphic murders. Its rather progressive social commentary, calling for better mental health services and understanding of those who are a possible danger to society, curiously echoes sentiments delivered in The Dark Past, another film in this Indicator set. What likely made The Sniper so radical at the time is how it gets us ‘into’ the mind of the conflicted Eddie, marking him a victim himself – not excusing his actions but possibly explaining them. The way the film portrays him repeatedly as an ‘outsider’, as someone who doesn’t fit in or really understands how to be accepted in society, also reminded me greatly of Taxi Driver. No-one has any compassion for Eddie, not even children in the street who turn upon him when he attempts to join in their ball game, and even a customer who is friendly towards him casts him away as soon as her boyfriend turns up (this rejection actually triggering him to enact his first murder).\n\nThe one thing in this film that didn’t ring true -and actually annoyed the hell out of me- was Gerald Mohr as detective Joe Ferri, younger sidekick of elder-statesman/case leader Lt. Frank Kraft (Adolphe Menjou). Mohr seems to think he’s in some boys-own adventure film or that he’s somehow the actual lead hero- he grins like an idiot throughout and poses all the time (he holds his gun like its a toy). I suppose he reckoned he was a matinee heartthrob, and can imagine him asking his agent “do I look good?” in every scene and its a horrible performance that grates throughout, he’s just terrible and watching him run, gun in hand, towards Eddie’s building near the films climax was cringe-inducing (“hey, look ma, its me!” kind of thing). One of those cases where an acting performance is clearly NOT trying to serve the movie, I’ve discovered that Mohr features in the noir classic Gilda that I bought on disc a few weeks back that I shall be watching for the first time soon. A cautionary discovery!\n\nArthur Franz is thankfully very good as the conflicted Eddie. He’s quite sympathetic in a role that could usually be a one-note crazy bastard (again, see Andrew Robinson’s Scorpio killer) and he succeeds in earning our empathy even after killing women in cold blood. I thought it was clever, possibly even daring, casting a handsome actor who looks like your typical Hollywood ‘wholesome good-guy’ as such a dangerous unhinged individual. It certainly gets our attention and curiosity regards what makes him tick and the source of his mad rages- not the usual consideration when watching a Hollywood villain."

"The opening of the location is an important step into the future for FlexBio. As an innovative green tech company, they focus on growth and global market leadership in autonomous solutions for water purification and water recycling. The innovative FlexBio process enables many companies to handle wastewater in a sustainable manner and to use the energy it contains. The contaminated water is cleaned with exclusion of air. This creates high-quality methane gas that can be used as an energy source for heating or to generate electricity. In this way, up to 30% of the operational gas consumption can be substituted and the natural gas consumption can be drastically reduced. In this way, the systems enable the treated wastewater to be reused and thus to save fresh water. In this way, responsibility for the use of valuable resources is assumed in every respect, creating sustainable action and awareness of our environment. The technology for anaerobic wastewater treatment comes in a compact and modular design and is an economical solution, especially for small and medium-sized companies.\n\nA strong team, which we are constantly expanding, is required to achieve our corporate goals. In this way, we will create many new jobs here in the region over the next few years, reports the management. Furthermore, we are currently developing a QM management system in order to be certified according to ISO 9001 this year.

"The campaign for France to leave the bloc, nicknamed ‘Frexit’, is gathering steam as the EU continues to botch its vaccine rollout. Journalist Laurent Herbley said the EU’s bureaucracy was “paralyzing” member states.\n\nHe wrote: “The EU has not protected us from any financial, economic or health crisis.\n\n“The EU has not allowed us to build anything, the European continent being a mere market for US multinationals or China.\n\n“And the EU has never allowed us to weigh more, the United States continuing to impose its will, fining our companies or pulling out of the Iran nuclear deal as it pleases.\n\n“The EU is just an additional and inadequate bureaucracy that paralyzes and distracts us, without ever helping us.”",

"“Better still, it does not seem so penalizing and on the first major issue, vaccination, the Union has shown that it weakens us.”\n\nMr Herbley’s comments come after Frexit champion Charles-Henri Gallois said Europe would be “more effective” as a continent if member states were not under the auspices of the EU.\n\nHe tweeted: “Europe is more effective without the European Union!",

"Maurice Hill has been named as the man who opened fire at police officers in a standoff that lasted nearly eight hours in Philadelphia.\n\nIt all went down at the Nicetown-Tioga neighborhood when officers were serving a narcotics warrant they were faced with Hill who fired multiple rounds from the kitchen area inside the house. Officers were forced to escape through a window.\n\nMaurice Hill who managed to wound at least six officers, proceeded to barricade himself in the home for several hours. Hill is said to have contacted both his girlfriend and lawyer during the ordeal. The latter instructed him he needed to surrender.",
null,
"Hill was finally apprehended after midnight after police ultimately used tear gas to force the suspect out of the house.\nDuring a news conference, we learned that it is not the first time Hill, an African American, gets in trouble wiht the law. In fact, he has a lengthy criminal history that shows that many charges ended up not being prosecuted. Hill has a drug history as well.\nIn a few words, Hill’s long record shows he is a career criminal whose prior felony convictions should have barred him from owning current weapons.\n\nHill’s extensive criminal record started at age 18, at the time he had a gun with an altered serial number. Since then, he’s been arrested around a dozen times, with six convictions for things including “illegal possession of guns, drug dealing, and aggravated assault.” He’s served prison time, and has an escape and resisting arrest conviction.\nHe “beat criminal charges on everything from kidnapping to attempted murder,” the Inquirer reported. A lengthy docket sheet of his 2012 case for perjury -shows multiple accusations of probation violation.\n\nAccording to a social media profile in which he goes by Maurice Hill Gruff -he attended John Bartram High School.\nHis lawyer spoke to media saying Hill did not want to end the standoff violently -due to his family.\n\nMaurice Hill who is a married man, is the father of a teen son and baby daughter who was born just two days prior to the standoff."

"Cobra Sport attended the first major event on the car and motorsport show calendar, with a large stand in the Performance & Tuning Car Show section of the prestigious Autosport International 2020 show at the NEC in Birmingham. The show itself covers over 1 million sq ft and attracts over 80,000 visitors each year making it the number one show for motorsport in the UK.",
null,
"The stand, located in Hall 4, showcased one of the Cobra Sport AmD Racing Honda Civic FK2 British Touring Cars having been completely rebuilt after the success of winning the 2019 Independent Teams and Driver Championships. The car proved extremely popular with visitors, many of whom captured pictures to share on social media. Recently announced drivers Jake Hill and Sam Osborne spent a lot of time on the Cobra Sport stand amongst our staff, socialising with traders, sponsors and visitors alike.\n\nThe pair of Honda Civics are set to compete in the 2020 BTCC campaign, with Hill and Osborne at the wheel looking to defend the Independent Teams Championship. Hill's confidence in his car and his team was evident when he said \"I have worked alongside the team previously and I have seen first-hand how competitive the FK2 can be: it is the most successful front-wheel-drive car in NGTC history in terms of race wins.\"",
null,
"The Autosport show also gave us a chance to exhibit some of the newest products in our vast performance exhaust range, amongst which was our new remote valved F56 Mini cat back exhaust and latest application of the our popular M4 inspired quad exit exhaust conversion for the 4-series diesel BMWs. Also on display were a selection of our best sellers including a Ford Focus RS Resonated 'Venom' exhaust and a unique 4-1 UEL De-Cat Manifold for the Toyota GT86 and Subaru BRZ. The products on display demonstrated the superior quality of our TIG welding manufacturing techniques and inspired many visitors to place enquiries for our direct fit performance exhaust products and learn more about our worldwide network of distributors and tuning partners.\n\nAs ever, the two trade days proved to be invaluable for us, catching up with existing contacts and adding to our network of dealers. The show generated an ever-increasing interest in the Cobra Sport brand and allowed us to discuss in person the direction in which we are moving as a company. The public event on the Saturday and Sunday was hugely popular with the stand being incredibly busy all weekend.\n\nWe would like to extent a huge thank you to everybody who came to visit our stand over the 4 days of the show and we look forward to seeing you again at many shows to come this year including JapFest, TRAX, Ford Fair and more."

"Exactly 203 Burma ruby beads slip through Randi Williams’ fingers, each one glistening with the clear, claret hue of a pomegranate seed. The three-strand necklace they comprise is deemed, in the parlance",
null,
"of the upscale jewelry world,\n\nEach of the rubies is separated, discretely, with one of 200 faceted diamond rondelles. A whitegold clasp holds the stones together, its geometric shape encrusted with two cabochon rubies and a smattering of diamonds. The sheer volume of stones is breathtaking. And yet the stones’ cut and the necklace’s setting are refined.\n\nI f the rubies were faceted or the diamonds more prominently placed, the piece would possess a louder soul. And Williams wouldn’t hold it as lovingly.\n\nWilliams’ passion for jewelry goes beyond mere carat weight. Instead, hers is a love for the artistic, esoteric pieces whose worth is greater than that of their raw materials. “The value of the piece is in the success of the design,” she says.",
null,
"One might expect to find a certain type of woman among the diamonds and rubies at Williams Galleries—perhaps a Southern belle with a butter-blonde mane and an air of slight remove. Instead, one finds the downtown cool that is Williams.\n\nIt is the weekend and Williams stands before a glass case, her lithe frame layered in black: a blazer with leather lapels, a semi-transparent shirt and a Nina Ricci skirt with an asymmetrical zipper slashed across the front. Her black hair is tousled, sexily, into a partial ponytail.\n\nAs she pulls out tray after black velvet tray of dazzling pieces, Williams rattles off the names of famous houses and designers that regularly appear in her collection. Many hail from France, including Cartier, Van Cleef & Arpels, LaCloche Freres, Boivin, Fouquet, Belperron, Boucheron, Chaumet, Schlumberger, and Mauboussin. In one tray, a diamond Cartier bracelet from 1931 is graced by an emerald, ruby, and sapphire cut in the cabochon style, a particularly European touch. In another, an Art Deco emerald and diamond bracelet from 1935 possesses a deeply sculptural form.\n\n“It never looks dated,” Williams says of Art Deco and Art Moderne. “It was made by jewelers and artists who were cognizant of the fact that they were breaking from tradition. They set out to make eye-catching pieces.”",
null,
"Jewelry designers of the period playfully blended precious gems with materials of less intrinsic value, such as enamel. “Their motivation was not to get the highest carat weight they could cram into a brooch,” Williams explains. “It was to make a brooch that was exciting to look at.”\n\nOriginally from Long Island, Williams studied film production at Rhode Island School of Design. She spent the early portion of her career as a set decorator on Broadway then segued into dealing in Arts and Crafts furniture and collectible Mexican silver. It was her husband who convinced her to take the leap into a world where a period Art Deco Cartier watch can sell for $65,000—and a “highly important” ruby necklace can sell for much, much more.\n\nWilliams can easily explain the origins of any piece. The beads of the ruby necklace, for example, were cut sometime in the early twentieth century “when the famous mines in Burma were quite active,” she says. The diamond clasp dates to the 1950s or 1960s. And the faceted diamond rondelles were added recently, when the necklace was re-strung.\n\n“It never gets old; it never gets tired,” she says of her work. “It gets my heart pounding every time I see something fabulous.”"

"Getting Vision Zero Back on Track",
null,
"Problem: 80% of pedestrian fatalities in Seattle happen on multilane arterials.\n\nSolution: The single most important thing the city can do is redesign dangerous streets.\n\nReducing the number of lanes and converting the extra space to widened sidewalks, protected bike lanes, bus lanes, or even planting strips for street trees is the most effective strategy. The West Seattle bridge repair project demonstrated that SDOT can still do big things, well, and quickly. SDOT can deliver on safe street projects with a similar proficiency if it has mayoral backing.\n\nAurora Ave: 12 people were killed on Aurora in the last three years. SDOT’s study for improvements is underway.\n\nAsk: Support the implementation of a robust Aurora Ave “demonstration project” as defined by the state legislature through holistic “all hands on deck” inter-departmental approach, building towards a bold vision for the entire street.",
null,
"MLK Way S: 9 people were killed on MLK in the last three years. People continue to get hurt along this poorly designed corridor, and efforts to fix it have been lacking.",
null,
"SODO: 18 people were killed in SODO in the last three years. Many streets in SODO are dangerously and unnecessarily wide, lack sidewalks, protected bike lanes, and have few or perilous crosswalks.\n\nAsk: Reject the false choice between freight/blue collar jobs, and the safety of people trying to get to those jobs — the movement of reliable freight and safe movement of people can coexist in #OneSeattle. Ask them to come back to you with a holistic plan for SODO safety.\n\nAsk: Implement interim improvements on 4th Ave where many people have died, and study the effects afterwards rather than tying up modest improvements in years of delay.\n\nOther dangerous arterials and the Seattle Transportation Plan:\n\nAsk: SDOT should begin to develop bold safety redesigns for other known dangerous streets such as Rainier Ave S and Lake City Way. These redesigns should be incorporated into the Seattle Transportation Plan and funded in the next transportation levy and through state and federal sources.",
null,
"Ask: Work with the Fire Department to test this solution by adding speed cushions along arterials around the city with known speeding issues, and measure SFD response times and the number of crashes. This solution should be rapidly deployed on dangerous arterials across the city.",
null,
"Solution: Intelligent Speed Assistance systems are an incremental step towards vehicles that do not exceed the speed limit. This modest intervention alerts drivers that they are exceeding the posted speed limit. NYC is beginning to implement it in municipal vehicles, and all cars sold in Europe will have the technology by 2024.",
null,
"Problem: 59% of all pedestrian fatalities occur at intersections.\n\nSolution: Improve visibility at intersections: Hoboken, New Jersey has reached Vision Zero, and credits much of their success to making it easier to see at intersections by restricting illegal parking with posts or curb bulbs, while slowing down turns.\n\nAsk: Start a visibility at crosswalks initiative for every crosswalk.\n\nSolution: Pedestrian head start signals (AKA leading pedestrian intervals) reduce serious collisions by 35%. Seattle has made great progress on this!\n\nAsk: Implement a designated left turn phase at every signalized intersection where left turns are allowed. Ban right on red as the default for every intersection.",
null,
"Solution: Superblocks. Barcelona-style superblocks create low-traffic zones in places with a high concentration of pedestrians, greatly reducing their exposure to potential dangers. When constructed properly, superblocks use diverters that reduce both the volume of traffic and the number of conflict points at intersections. The key traffic diversion elements can be constructed at very low cost using paint and plastic posts, with hardscape added later. In addition to addressing a problem, superblocks create opportunities for public space, commerce, recreation, and community-building.\n\nAsk: Craft policies and plans (like the STP) to support the creation of superblocks and begin pilot projects.",
null,
"Problem: 80% of people killed while biking happened where there are no bike lanes\n\nSolution: Build protected bike lanes. Protected bike lanes make streets safer for people who bike, and encourage people of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds to bike. Furthermore, they actually make the road safer for everyone regardless of how people travel.\n\nAsk: Craft an even bolder vision for bicycling in the new Seattle Transportation Plan and the next levy (the old BMP should not be the limit for our city’s vision).\n\nSolution: Budget like safety is the top priority. Any other department that had faulty infrastructure that was killing people on a routine basis would pause other priorities and address their urgent safety issues. Budget increases in recent years by the council and mayor are important steps in the right direction, but many critical safety projects remain unfunded or underfunded.\n\nProblem: Critical safety projects are frequently delayed, watered down, or canceled all together. Historically, even after projects have gone through planning and are fully funded, the two biggest blockers to implementing life saving projects are the mayor’s office and old fashioned thinking within SDOT.\n\nSolution: Executive leadership. There is simply no substitute for direction from the mayor’s office that safety must be the city’s top transportation priority — especially when it’s challenging or controversial. Pronouncements from Mayor Harrell on Vision Zero are welcome, and safety must continue to be the top priority, if we are to make real progress.\n\nSolution: Improve project evaluation. Despite adopted city policies on safety, health, equity, climate, age friendliness, accessibility, and other factors, many SDOT projects are still largely evaluated and presented to the public and decision makers for evaluation based on to what extent they impact single occupancy vehicle delay.\n\nAsk: When developing projects or alternatives for internal or public review, present a holistic view of the tradeoffs. Make moral choices clear. Prioritize safety above other considerations.\n\nEX: if implemented, this safety project would likely reduce fatalities, increase accessibility, reduce the burden of crashes on people of color, make the street more accessible for people of all ages and abilities, but increase car travel time over the status quo.\n\nSolution: Improve the project development process. Old fashioned engineering thinking within the department that prioritizes the movement of single occupancy vehicles over our city’s safety, health, equity, and climate goals must come to an end. Historically, many of these barriers have arisen when projects need approval from the operations division.\n\nAsk: Change the people, priorities, policies, or power structure within the department to remove the impediments to rapidly and boldly developing and implementing safety projects.\n\nAsk: Strategies and projects identified as important in the BPSA or through future similar analyses should be greenlit by default rather than on a case by case basis.\n\nAsk — for safety projects: Engagement should seek to understand real potential harms (such as the loss of a loading zone for a business, or the impact the lack of a crosswalk would have on a senior center) of a project and address them as best as possible, while separating out mere complaints (such as those displayed at right). By doing this, the public and decision makers can better understand the real impacts of a project and mitigate them as necessary, while not getting bogged down with inevitable complaints about change.\n\nAsk — for placemaking projects: Projects that are primarily about creating community spaces such as parklets, plazas, street art, and open street events should receive a more rigorous level of community engagement (compared to safety projects) — namely co-creating the project with SDOT. This will ensure that these spaces best reflect community needs, desires, and become well loved spaces.\n\nSeattle police issue just 25-40 traffic tickets each day, and those go to Black drivers at a rate three times higher than their share of the population. Unarmed, non-police traffic monitors can more effectively prioritize safety-related stops and reduce biased enforcement and racialized violence.\n\nAsk: Design a pilot program to explore how traffic enforcement could be civilianized in Seattle and begin the culture shift required to align with SDOT’s mission and vision of safety and equity.\n\nSolution: Make automated enforcement more equitable and less punitive. Automated ticketing in Seattle, especially speed cameras, have been shown to have safety benefits, and are a significant step better than enforcement by uniformed police officers. But traffic cameras are disproportionately located in communities of color, and tickets can be a significant financial\n\nburden for low-income residents. Before we expand this program, we need to take steps to make it more equitable.\n\nAsk: When implementing automated enforcement, develop a site-specific plan for additional physical traffic calming improvements and eliminate the need for enforcement in the future.\n\nAsk: Increase cameras in wealthier areas of the city with fewer people of color to address equity concerns.\n\nAsk: All cameras should issue warnings instead of tickets for first-time violations. This is likely to be effective, as 95% of Seattle residents never receive a second ticket at a specific camera location.\n\nAsk: Work with Seattle Municipal Court to set ticket fines based on income or ability to pay, and create additional and more accessible alternative options for those who cannot afford to pay a ticket."

"At Carnegie Hall in New York last night, activist Malala Yousafzai gave an impassioned speech about about girls’ access to education. Malala’s dream is to some day be the Prime Minister of Pakistan though one wonders if this dream will ever come true in a country whose 40,00 private schools have banned her book and the Taliban still wants her dead.\n\nMalala Yousafzai was shot in the head by the Taliban in October 2012. The Taliban objected to Malala’s criticism of Islam, which limits girls’ access to education. Malala has since recovered and has written her memoir “I am Malala,” which contains valuable life lessons about leadership, fearlessness, bravery and conflict resolution. She has gained global prominence with the “The Malala Fund” which supports education for girls and she has been travelling all over the world doing speaking engagements. Recently she was invited to meet with our Queen and also has won the top EU Sakharov Prize for freedom of thought.\n\nThe India Times has a short slide show which highlight a few of these lessons."

"When tasked with illustrating the “Highway Patrol Vehicle 2025,” the designers at the Mercedes-Benz Advanced Design Studio based their idea on what a future version of the G-Class SUV would look like.\n\nFor police use, it was critical that the truck be able to reach incident scenes both on road and off, and a reduced greenhouse area (basically, the vehicle’s glass) would offer up a margin of additional safety for occupants.\n\nWhen the rendering of a future police vehicle was finished, the designers liked the concept so much that a life-size model was built to demonstrate what the off-roader of the future may look like. Mercedes-Benz will be debuting this Ener-G-Force concept in its booth at the 2012 Los Angeles Auto Show.\n\nPower comes from recycled water, which is converted into hydrogen and oxygen by the onboard “hydro-tech converter.” Hydrogen is used to power the fuel cells, while batteries are contained in the Ener-G-Force’s side skirts. Four wheel-hub motors provide propulsion, and the Ener-G-Force has a range of roughly 500 miles.\n\nEnsuring that drivers never get stuck, a roof-mounted “Terra-Scan” unit maps the topography ahead and automatically adjusts suspension settings and ground clearance as needed. The side skirt lights change color depending upon the state of charge, and the batteries are hot-swappable to extend the electric SUV’s range.\n\nWhile the Ener-G-Force remains the stuff of science fiction (for now, anyway), it demonstrates the reverence that Mercedes-Benz has for its iconic off-roader. While the 2025 Gelaendewagen may not look or function anything like the Ener-G-Force concept, we have no doubt that the legendary SUV will still be in production."

"Recall that when the CFPB launched the Consumer Complaint Database, its expressed hope that “the marketplace of ideas” – i.e., the public – would study and analyze the information disclosed in the database in order to “determine what the data show[s].” 77 FR 37559. The CFPB also stated that the purpose of the database is to “provide consumers with timely and understandable information to make responsible decisions about financial transactions and to enhance the credit card market’s ability to operate transparently and efficiently.” Id.\n\nWell, achievement of Goal #1 – public analysis of the data – already appears to be in full swing. As Jeff Sovern remarked yesterday, the Charlotte Observer recently created a chart showing which company received the most complaints out of the total number of complaints currently available in the database (which includes any received by the CFPB since June 1, 2012).\n\nHowever, achievement of Goal #1 risks undermining achievement of Goal #2 – providing information to assist consumers in making informed purchasing decisions. As noted by Mr. Sovern, the Observer’s chart does not contain any contextual information regarding the resolution of the complaints or how the number of complaints received by the CFPB compares to the total number of credit card customers each issuer has. As a result, the limited information available in the database seems to result in a limited analysis that risks steering consumers away from companies who, in reality, receive very few complaints as compared to their total number of customers or who may actually resolve customer complaints more favorably than their competitors.\n\nIn addition to the fact that the database does not contain any information pertaining to the validity of those complaints (thereby making it impossible for consumers to assess whether the complaints relate to legitimate issues that consumers should be concerned about), by reporting only the raw number of complaints, consumers are unable to evaluate how many complaints each company receives in comparison to its total number of customers. Such an analysis could show that as a percentage, fewer customers file complaints against a particular company as compared to that company’s competitors. If the database made such calculations possible, the Observer’s chart could show very different results.\n\nThis type of confusion is not surprising – indeed, as noted in our prior post, the industry predicted this is exactly what would occur in light of the current information available in the database. Nevertheless, the CFPB does not appear to be inclined to make any changes and continues to plan an expansion of the database to include other financial products. Given that the concerns expressed by the industry during the comment period already are coming to fruition, we sincerely hope that the CFPB will take a hard look at ways to improve the database in order to permit more robust analyses and ensure that Goal #2 actually is achieved."

"A simple rainwater harvesting system that I installed at my modest independent home in Sastri Nagar, almost 15 years ago, is what is helping me through the current water crisis.\n\nThere was sufficient water in the open well. So, we did not have to depend on the water supply to our locality, which was unreliable and erratic. Due to poor rainfall in the years 1993 and 1994, water in the well was depleting at a fast rate, I sunk a borewell which became the main source of water supply for the family.\n\nA friend suggested that I go in for an RWH system. It would be a simple structure. It would recharge my well by channeling the rainwater collected on the terrace during rains into the well through PVC pipes, suitably filtered. That did not solve the problem.\n\nDuring heavy rains, the compound would be flooded with rainwater, one-foot high, as the platform of my premises was at a lower level than the road. The rainwater would remain stagnant for almost a week. Because of the muck that would come in with the water, the whole place would stink and it would be a breeding ground for mosquitoes.\n\nOften, we would seek the help of the Corporation to pump out the water.\n\nIn 2003, when RWH structures were made mandatory in the state, my friendly architect/engineer came up with a simple idea of harvesting the water surrounding my home during the next rainy season.\n\nHe dug three-meter-deep holes in the ground on the premises of my house. In these holes, he embedded PVC pipes of 6-inches diameter and filled them with sand & broken granites.\n\nThese were placed three meters apart throughout the length and breadth of the compound with concrete flooring. He also dug up a 3ft x 3ft, 3-meter-deep shallow gutter covered with a perforated concrete slab in two places in the passage leading to the house — one near the gate and the other at the entrance to the passage from the road. The initiative cost me only ₹15,000 in 2004. When the next rain came inundating our colony I was pleasantly surprised to see the entire collection of water surrounding my home vanishing into the ground in three to four hours.\n\nObviously, the RWH system was working. In a couple of weeks, I had another surprise. The open well that had been dry for almost 10 years had got recharged and was filled to the brim.\n\nHowever, the total failure of the rains last year has made the open well go dry again for the last six months. While we are continuing to enjoy the supply from the borewell for general purposes, thanks to the RWH system in place, we do buy tanker water once a month for our cooking and drinking needs. I am convinced that having RWH systems in buildings is one of the lasting solutions to the water problem of Chennai."

"Across South Africa, fishermen rely on their catch to supplement their diets – especially in rural and underdeveloped areas like Mdumbi, in the Eastern Cape, where this photo was taken. Fishermen also benefit from marine protected areas, as photographer Steve Benjamin says, “MPAs are like biological bank accounts and we can all live off the interest they provide.”\n\nWith billions of spawning sardines travelling north towards Mozambique, the annual sardine run is one of the planet’s biggest migrations in terms of biomass.\n\nIn a report for Call to Earth, CNN reports on the event, which runs along South Africa’s east coast between May and July.\n\nBefore the Covid-19 pandemic, the annual sardine run would attract tourists from across the globe. But this year, South African free diving champion Beth Neale was one of the few people who witnessed this phenomenon.\n\nArmed with a GoPro and 360-camera, she swam beneath the fish to film the incredible variety of marine wildlife it attracts. She believes her footage can help people appreciate how the ocean ecosystem depends on seemingly insignificant fish like the sardines.\n\n“I know through seeing the beauty of the sardine run and the underwater world, people start to understand how connected everything is,” says Neale.\n\nHowever, a recent study in the South African Journal of Science shows changing weather patterns caused by the climate crisis may threaten the sardine run. It also means the sardines are migrating later in the year, which can cause food shortages for animals like the sharks that feed on them alongside the threat of overfishing to shoals around the world.\n\nThe sardine run passes through some of South Africa’s Marine Protected Areas (MPAs), where fishing is restricted by law, giving sea life a chance to recover. Prior to 2019, only 0.4% of the country’s ocean territory was protected, but that has recently increased to 5.4% with a target of reaching 10%.\n\nNeale has been diving these waters for years and says she can see a significant difference between the areas that are safeguarded versus those that aren’t.\n\n“The most amazing thing about the ocean is once you implement a marine protected area, you can see the change really, really rapidly,” she says. “You protect what you love… The ocean is what I truly love the most.”"

"This study invests the relationship between the period and the length of a simple pendulum to determine the approximate value of the acceleration due to gravity g on planet Earth and planet X.\n\nThe virtual experiment was done online on 25th Febuary, 2012, at the Pendulum lab 2.03 (PhET, 2011) [2]. The apparatus was placed as shown in Figure 1. A digital clock at the toolbox was used to measure the time t for 10 complete oscillations. The pendulum bob was 1kg heavy and its mass was fixed throughout the experiment. Five different values of the string’s length were chosen to set the pendulum swing, which respectively were 0.5, 0.8, 1.1, 1.4, 1.7, 2.0m.\n\nThe experiment was carried out on planet Earth, under the condition of which the friction bar was slided to half-way. The pendulum bob was skewed off at a right angle which was 90 and was let to swing. Simultaneously, the digital clock was set to calculate the time for 10 cycles. The results then were recorded individually for each length and were written down in the form of a table at the end of the experiment. Subsequently, the figure was being analysed in order to determine the value of gravitational acceleration ‘g’on Earth. The uniform method was used to carry out the value of g on planet X.",

Since the investigation was performed online, the jeopardies such as the effect of wind, the uncontrollable amount of friction and mistakes in length measurement have been eliminated.

"NEW YORK — Even when it’s going well, facing Virginia is a torturous test.\n\nNorth Carolina hung on for so long and came close but could never erase its second-half deficit. When the Tar Heels made mistakes that they were able to survive against Duke a night earlier, the Cavaliers instead took out the dagger and put the game away.\n\nVirginia methodically made plays and big shots in the final minutes as the Tar Heels’ four-day run came to a frustrating conclusion with a 71-63 loss to No. 1 Virginia in the ACC Tournament championship Saturday at Barclays Center.\n\n“We had them. We had them,” Pinson said. “We just didn’t make the plays at the end.”\n\nNow UNC waits for the NCAA tournament field to be announced Sunday to see if the win over Duke is enough to get the Tar Heels sent to the Charlotte pod instead of the Blue Devils.\n\nBattle-tested seniors Pinson and Joel Berry II did their best to get the mindset of the team right.\n\n“We’re going to learn from this,” said Pinson, who only scored four points but had six assists and eight rebounds. “Me and Joel told the guys when they came in to keep your head up. It’s for all the marbles right now. You lose, you go home and we just need to play as hard as we can and we’ll be all right.”\n\nThe other good news is that the Tar Heels (25-10) probably won’t have to face Virginia (31-2) again unless they make a deep NCAA run. And they won’t have to play four consecutive days.\n\n“It’s not playing four days in a row that’s hard, it’s playing Virginia on the last day, and they deserved what they got,” Coach Roy Williams said. “But my team is getting better. We’ve got some bigger goals in front of us, and we’ll need to get back to work this week after giving them some rest.”\n\nIt’s hard to say which end of the court frustrated UNC the most: the grind on defense or the offensive challenges created by Virginia’s torrid defense. The Cavaliers forced UNC to play defense for nearly the whole shot clock only to sink a basket many times when the clock was about to run out.\n\n“They make you guard for 30 seconds most possessions and they really don’t make anything easy for you,” said Kenny Williams, who scored 12 points and had the daunting task of guarding Kyle Guy. “You really can’t get anything easy on the offensive end, so you have to just keep your poise when that comes up and stay patient with the team and with yourself.”\n\nGuy, the tournament MVP, scored 11 of his team-high 16 points in the second half. Many of those points came despite being closely guarded.\n\n“I think he was just more aggressive,” Williams said. “First half, he was coming off the screens, he wasn’t really curling them tight and going into his shot. The second half, he just got more aggressive and a lot of the time I was there. He’s a big-time player so he was making shots.”\n\nIn the final minutes when UNC badly needed a stop to cut the lead down, Virginia used much of the shot clock, got the rebound, and proceeded to run another 30 seconds off the clock.\n\nCarolina was missing a dangerous perimeter threat in the final minutes because Cameron Johnson had to sit on the bench battling back issues. His fall against Miami caused hip issues to flare up and the back problems came up as he continued to play. When he took another fall Saturday, his hip and back were in pain. He went through lots of rehab in the last 48 hours but playing four consecutive nights made it difficult.\n\n“The clock just drains when you play them,” said Johnson, who had four points and no 3-pointers in 32 minutes after scoring in double figures in each of the previous three tournament games. “That’s kind of the grind you have to encounter when you play them. You have to play possessions out. Every possession matters just a little bit more. You’ve got to make shots on your end and stop them from making shots on their end.”\n\nVirginia took Carolina out of their normal transition game, which forced them to deal with the pesky half-court, pack-line defense. The Tar Heels combined for two fast-break points in the two losses to Virginia, both coming Saturday night. In both losses, UNC only had only three points in each game off turnovers.\n\nOnce in a half-court set, it was a difficult to get any open shots.\n\n“Personally, for me is not making driving angles that you can get to,” Pinson said of what most frustrates him about Virginia’s defense. “At the same time, they make you work for everything you get. They make you work and you have to move the ball as fast as you can. You’ve got to knock down shots.”\n\nMaye knocked down plenty of those in scoring 15 of UNC’s 30 first-half points. But he could only score five in the second half to give him his first 20-point-plus game since hitting 33 at N.C. State.\n\n“With them and how they play, the slow pace that they have, it does kind of put pressure on you to think that you have to go down and take a quick shot and try to get that lead back in one possession, and that’s where they take advantage of teams,” said Berry, who scored 17 points. “And then, next thing you know, you take a bad shot, and then you’ve got to go back down and play defense for 30 seconds again, and then now you’re like, ‘Oh, dang, we really have to get it going now.’ ”\n\nThat’s the frustrating cycle that allows Virginia to seemingly get into the heads of its opponents and the reason it will be the top overall seed when the NCAA field is announced Sunday.\n\n“You’ve got to make every offensive possession be a good one, all right, because they’re going to make you work defensively,” Coach Williams said. “If you go down and slop up a quick shot, now you’ve got to go back and defend, and you might have to defend for a long time.”\n\nThe Tar Heels are just thankful that none of these sorts of opponent issues will be in their immediate future."

"RIO GRANDE CITY, RGV – The CEO of Starr County Memorial Hospital recalled the early days of the hospital at a ceremony to celebrate an affiliation agreement with DHR Health.\n\n“The community was all in favor of this hospital district. Everybody knew we needed a hospital, everybody was willing to work together. It took many, many, hours and many, many, good people to get this process going,” Muñoz said, referring to local efforts to get the hospital up and running.\n\nMuñoz noted that Ramirez had a small hospital in Roma but folded this to create Starr County Memorial Hospital in Rio Grande City after state lawmakers passed legislation during the 62nd legislature in 1972 to set up a hospital district for the county.\n\nMuñoz noted that Ramirez became county judge to make his dream of a countywide hospital district come true. The new hospital opened in 1975 and Muñoz started work there on day one, as director of nursing.\n\nShe noted that the hospital has expanded over the years and now has two rural clinics and an emergency ambulance service.\n\n“There was a small hospital, 20 beds, in Roma that belonged to Dr. Ramirez. It was privately owned. In those days, physicians could own hospitals. Later it changed to no physician ownership and now it is back to old times where physicians can own hospitals,” Muñoz said.\n\n“Dr. Ramirez was local, born and raised in the community. He sacrificed so much to come back to work in his community, day and night. He was tireless, an excellent physician. His vision was to see a bigger hospital, with more services.”\n\n“It was hard to adhere to the regulations in the Roma hospital because it was housed in an old building. Meeting the compliance requirements was very difficult. In order to be able to tap into Medicare and be in compliance, a new hospital had to be built. That was Dr. Ramirez’s vision and he succeeded.”\n\nAsked how supportive the local community was, Muñoz said: “There really was a lot of support. I remember meetings, meetings and more meetings, many in the evening. Even looking at the floor plans that were developed. The reason it was built right in this locale was because this was the most central area for Starr County.”\n\nAfter serving as director of nurses for a number of years, Muñoz was asked by the hospital district’s board of directors to study to become chief executive officer.\n\n“After being out of school for 20 years I went back to school and enrolled in an external degree program at Trinity University and was able to accomplish my master’s degree in healthcare administration. It was at the same time my oldest son was starting college.”\n\nShe recalled there were 88 employees when the hospital opened. Now there are 278.\n\nAsked about the new affiliation agreement with DHR Health, Muñoz said STMH will retain its hospital district designation, with its board of directors maintaining local control.\n\n“Local control has stayed exactly the same. This is the only way it was going to get done.”\n\nAsked what the affiliation agreement will mean for Starr County residents, Muñoz said:\n\n“It means being able to recruit and bring in new services and specialty services that we really need. It is already starting to happen through this affiliation,” she said.\n\n“We are entering into contractual agreements with DHR because we needed the networking, we needed to have some type of a partnership, just to keep up with the changes that are happening in healthcare. I think the community is excited.”\n\nAs for the future, Muñoz said she expects to see pulmonary and cardiology services available at SCMH as a result of the agreement with DHR Health.\n\nMuñoz also dismissed rumors that she is about to retire. “I have a hard time now with a sciatic nerve. But, other than that, mentally, fortunately, very good.”\n\nDHR Health issued a news release to announce the affiliation agreement with SCMH. It read in part:\n\n“In 2015, DHR and SCMH began a collaboration that would increase the presence of surgical specialties in Starr County. Currently, DHR Health has three multi-specialty clinics in Starr County that physicians in the area of gastroenterology, cardiology, general surgery bariatrics, diabetes and endocrinology, otolaryngology, neurology, orthopedics, and urology. In addition to these services now being available in the arena, DHR Health and SCMH brought in more hospitalists and emergency medicine physicians that have now cared for over 8,000 residents in Starr County.”\n\nThe news release said it is the goal of both hospitals to become a “community health partner” in Starr County, providing residents with “education on disease prevention and management, and creating awareness about crucial health topics.”\n\nThe news release ended: “This affiliation between Starr County Memorial Hospital and DHR Health is just the beginning to an improved standard level of care and many opportunities to improve healthcare in the community.”\n\nFor Dr. Ricardo Martinez, a founding physician at DHR Health, the ceremony to celebrate the affiliation agreement with SCMH was a special day.\n\n“It is wonderful to come back home. My family is originally from Starr County. I was young when we moved but when the opportunity presented itself to come back I was all for it. Just a happy day,” Martinez told the Rio Grande Guardian and RGV Public Radio 88 FM.\n\nAsked why the agreement is important, Martinez said: “Just as we did at DHR, we like to build a healthcare network so patients do not have to leave the area. That is our goal in Starr County as well. We would like to keep as many people here at home as possible.”\n\nIn his remarks at the event, Martinez said DHR Health wants to help SCMH “transform” Starr County. Asked about this afterwards, he said:\n\n“At DHR, our goal was to build a system where patients did not have to leave home. That is our goal here in Starr County as well. It is something every community deserves. We would like to see the same thing happen here. We are all on board for that.”\n\nIn his remarks, SCMH President Jose A. Vazquez said that for the last three years, SCHM and DHR Health have been having conversations and negotiations on how to deliver quality healthcare to Starr County.\n\n“Today is an important day for Starr County. It marks the culmination of a big effort and a long process in seeking how to improve the health for our community,” Vazquez said.\n\nDr. Manish Singh, CEO of DHR Health, said it was a “privilege and an honor” for DHR to be in Starr County."

"Hackaday Prize judge [Ben Krasnow] has been busy lately. He’s put his scanning electron microscope (SEM) to work creating an animation of a phonograph needle playing a record. (YouTube link) This is the same 80’s SEM [Ben] hacked back in November. Unfortunately, [Ben’s] JSM-T200 isn’t quite large enough to hold an entire 12″ LP, so he had to cut a small section of a record out. The vinyl mods weren’t done there though. SEMs need a conductive surface for imaging\n\n. Vinyl is an insulator. [Ben] dealt with this by using his vacuum chamber to evaporate a thin layer of silver on the vinyl.\n\nJust imaging the record wouldn’t be enough; [Ben] wanted an animation of a needle traveling through the record grove. He tore apart an old phonograph needle and installed it in on a copper wire in the SEM. Thanks to the dual stage setup of the JSM-T200, [Ben] was able to move the record-chip and needle independently. He could then move the record underneath the needle as if it were actually playing. [Ben] used his oscilloscope to record 60 frames, each spaced 50 microns apart. He used octave to process the data, and wound up with the awesome GIF animation you see on the left.",
null,
"[Ben] wasn’t done though. He checked out a few other recording formats, including CD and DVD optical media, and capacitance electronic disc, an obscure format from RCA which failed miserably in the market. The toughest challenge [Ben] faced was imaging the CD media. The familiar pits of a CD are stored on a thin aluminum layer sandwiched between the lacquer label and the plastic disc. He tried dissolving the plastic with chemicals, but enough plastic was left behind to distort the image. The solution turned out to be double-sided tape. Sticking some tape down on the CD and peeling it off cleanly removed the aluminum, and provided a sturdy substrate with which to mount the sample in the SEM.\n\nWe’re curious if stereo audio data can be extracted from the SEM images. [Oona] managed to do this with a mono recording from a toy robot. Who’s going to be the first one to break out the image analysis software and capture some audio from [Ben’s] images?\n\n32 thoughts on “Phonographs Through The Eye Of An Electron Microscope”"

"Introduction\nWilliamson is a part of Rapala and they develop lures and fishing tools. I was fortunate enough to be able to work with their 10” curved fillet knife this past weekend and I was impressed with the cutting force that it provided. My first impression of this fillet knife was that I could use it to fillet a 15 foot bull shark, fend off hungry gators, or chop firewood. Unfortunately none of those seemed very realistic, so I decided to use it to fillet a redfish after a day out on the flats. The point I am trying to make is that the knife really is large and sturdy, with a total length of about 16 inches from handle to tip.",
null,
"Actual Testing/Use\nI caught a slot sized redfish while I was out this past weekend and I kept it mainly because I love eating redfish, but also to give this knife a thorough test against a red’s scales. The knife performed very well and cut right through the tough redfish scales with a lot less effort than other fillet knives I have used in the past. It was a bit tricky managing the large knife without flex when it came to actually cutting the meat down the spine, however this knife is clearly intended for much larger game than a 22” redfish so I will give it the benefit of the doubt there. The grip was very comfortable and I didn’t feel like I was going to drop or slip the knife at any point. That was very reassuring as I had been paddling for hours and my arms felt like lead. The only downside to this knife was that it does not come with a sheath so I had to rig a foam and tape setup to ensure it didn’t slice through any of my gear.",

"Overall\nThe Williamson fillet knife is a great knife for filleting larger fish and is offered at a good price, however be sure to get some sort of sheath for it. I can assure you that you don’t want 10” of sharpened curved steel bumping around in your kayak or tackle box."

"Nasa has had a busy year.\n\nDespite the ongoing pandemic, the US space agency has found time to land a rover on Mars, launch a mission to divert an asteroid and even get sued by billionaire Jeff Bezos.\n\nBut one thing the National Aeronautics and Space Administration continues to do is publish awe-inspiring photos.\n\nWe’ve had a look back at a few of our favourites from the last twelve months.\n\nThomas Pesquet, a French astronaut currently aboard the International Space Station (ISS) posted an incredible image of aurora lights snaking out over the planet.\n\nPesquet captured the shot on August 20 from his vantage point 250 miles above the Earth.\n\nIt’s one of the best pictures of the aurora ever taken from the ISS but Pesquet didn’t specify if it was the aurora borealis (Northern Lights) or aurora australis (Southern Lights) or the part of the planet it was appearing over.\n\n‘Another aurora but this one is special as it is so bright.

"Scientific Name: Allium tricoccum – Allium is Latin for garlic; tricoccum is a combination of the Latin words for three berries, referring to the three-lobed fruit\n\nPotpourri: Ramps emerge from the leaf litter on the forest floor very early in the spring, two to three oval shaped leaves emerging from each bulb. Large colonies can cover a hillside. The Ramp or wild leek has a flavor and odor that is characterized as being a cross between garlic and onion. However, the ramp should be eaten with caution, as the aroma imparted to the body is pungent. Ramp has long been the subject of festival among southeast mountain people as it was regarded as a spring tonic that cleansed the blood, most likely due to the abundance of its Vitamin C that was lacking in their winter diet.\n\nThe name “Ramp” derives from England, where a similar wild leek is called ramson (Ram’s son) as it appears under the zodiacal sign of the ram, Aries, March 20 to April 20. As an etymological alternative, it may also derive from hramsa, Old English for garlic.\n\nNative Americans had several uses for the wild leek. It was used to treat coughs and colds and a poultice was made from the bulbs to treat bee stings. The Menomini tribe of the Lake Michigan area called the wild leek pikwute sikakushia, or skunk plant and the area where it grew shikako, or skunk place. The name was later applied to the white colonial settlement now known as Chicago."

"I saw this ring from 1937 inside one of my old Harper’s Bazaar issues (March 2009). It was part of a blurb on an Art Deco and Avant-Garde jewelry exhibit at the Musee des Arts Decoratifs. I thought it looked GORGEOUS and wondered if I could make something similar for myself. I had some leftover acrylic plastic from a previous project and I decided to create a pendant/brooch that looks like this cool ring.",

"Here is the end product. It came out pretty nicely, although I wished the flat-back rhinestones came out a little more sparkly. They seem to be filtering the glue behind it into the stone, but other than that, I like the outcome a lot. The laser-cutting was a little more costly so I won’t be recreating this frequently without some serious coin. 🙂\n\nAfter I laser-cut the piece I outlined the specific area with the small rhinestones first. Then I glued the larger stones in the middle, and filled in the spaces with as many small stones as I could. Next I glued a laser-cut blue plastic piece that resembles the blue stone in the ring to the front and a pendant bail and pinback on the other side. After 72 hrs. it was ready to be worn."

"Wrangling an eight-foot king cobra is all in a day's work for Ajay Giri, field director of the Agumbe Reserve Research Station in western India. Mahima A. Jain\nIn This Story\nDestination Guide\n\nAjay Giri juggles an eight-foot king cobra in one hand and a snake hook in the other. The cobra’s forked tongue flicks. Its tail, coiled around Giri’s left arm, twitches restlessly. Hay, huts, fields, and farmers are all scorched under the afternoon sun at Heggodu, an agricultural village bordering the Agumbe Reserve Forest. Here, deep within India’s mountainous Western Ghats, Giri has come to rescue the king.\n\nThe Western Ghats have lost more than 35 percent of their rainforests in the last century thanks to plantations and other development: The habitat of the region’s king cobras is shrinking. The snakes now hunt for prey in farms bordering the forests, putting them in closer proximity to humans. But, while snakes overall are responsible for more than 50,000 deaths each year in India, very few are caused by the king cobra.\n\n“For most people this is the scariest snake. But you’ll hardly ever find records of a king cobra bite,” says Romulus Whitaker. The herpetologist founded the Agumbe Rainforest Research Station, and is co-founder of the King Cobra Conservancy global initiative.\n\nAlthough the king cobra is one of the most venomous snakes, it has little interest in humans. Its scientific name reveals its true target: Ophiophagus hannah, the snake eater.\n\n“King cobras are essential to the ecosystem,” says Meghana Nagaraja, the research station’s outreach officer. She has accompanied Giri to Heggodu this afternoon for the snake rescue, and is using the opportunity to educate some of the bystanders. Farms attract rodents, which in turn draw snakes, including several venomous species that are responsible for many human fatalities. King cobras, Nagaraja explains, maintain balance by eating those snakes.\n\nLike most Indians, people in this region fear the king cobras—but here, they also consider them deities. This reverence makes it easier for Nagaraja and her colleagues to persuade local residents not to harm the species, and instead to contact research station staff.\n\nThe Agumbe Rainforest Research Station has championed ethical rescues of king cobras since its creation in 2005. Giri joined the team in 2009, and is on standby to rescue and study the snakes. The cobra currently coiled around Giri’s hand is one such snake; its hunt for a wounded rat snake was interrupted after a farmer discovered it next to his house.\n\nWhile Nagaraja handles crowd control, Giri gets an assist from another colleague, Jaykumar SS. The veteran rescuer, who goes by Kumar, has 27 years of experience. He and Giri have perfected their technique to cause minimal harm to the snakes.\n\nFirst, Kumar chases the snake towards Giri, who uses the snake hook to grab the cobra from its tail end. He directs the snake to a nearby trap: a PVC pipe the length of his arm with a gray cloth bag attached at the other end. The cobra hisses at Giri and dodges the mouth of the trap. Hood flared and showing its fangs, the snake does a U-turn toward Giri’s leg. Giri pushes it away using the hook. Everyone but the rescuers flinches; the duo have a track record of never being bitten.\n\nThough time slows down for those watching the rescue, it takes Giri little more than three minutes to coax the snake into the trap. Kumar takes over, ties the bag, weighs it, notes other details, and nonchalantly places it by a nearby plastic chair.\n\nThe trapped snake will be safely released, but many other king cobras are not so fortunate. In India, apart from the Western Ghats, king cobras are found in the equally mountainous Eastern Ghats and the rainforests of the northeast. Other habitats include parts of Southeast Asia and southern China. In some of these areas, king cobras and other snakes are killed in large numbers either for snakeskin or out of fear.\n\nMuch of the fear of king cobras is unfounded, says Nagaraja. “King cobras get nothing from biting humans. They generally don’t want to waste their venom. It’s precious to them,” she says.\n\nAnd some of the people fatally bit by snakes have only themselves to blame.\n\n“There’s this craze among so-called rescuers who manhandle snakes, thereby agitating (them), while posing for social media,” Giri says with disapproval. Under Indian law, handling snakes is prohibited without special permits. “On social media there are pictures of people trying to kiss the snake. They are bound to get a kiss of death instead.”\n\nWhitaker agrees. “When humans die of bites we blame the snakes, without examining our actions and stupidity,” he says, adding that, while we have estimates for human fatalities, no one has calculated a similar statistic for snakes.\n\nGiri estimates that the Agumbe Rainforest Research Station has responded to more than 2,000 rescue calls in just a decade; nearly 500 were for king cobras. Every call is a chance to save a snake—and to advance science.\n\nIn 2008, the research station began the world’s first king cobra radio tracking project. Staff embedded an electronic tag under the skin of some of the rescued snakes, allowing researchers to follow their daily movements.\n\n“It’s a 9-to-5 job,” Whitaker says with a laugh. “King cobras are diurnal, which means their day begins at about 8 a.m. and ends before sunset. So our trackers have time for breakfast and dinner.”\n\nTracking the rescued snakes has revealed new details about the animals, including that female king cobras build nests, a behavior unique amongst all snakes. Another insight particularly important for Giri and other snake rescuers: A king cobra’s home range is 15-20 square kilometers, or less than eight square miles, and moving them outside that territory can lead to their death.\n\n“During the monsoon you can see several snakes right outside the research station. It can seem scary, but it is their space too,” says Nagaraja. “Sometimes there’s no need for a rescue, you need to let them be.”\n\nWhen locals call for the research station’s rescue team, the snakes they remove from homes and other areas of human activity are not taken far. The animals are typically released within a mile or two of the capture site.\n\n“These snakes don’t end up in a zoo or a sanctuary, their place is in the wild,” Giri says as he places the bagged snake under the front seat of his jeep. After a short drive, he parks the jeep by a patch of grass near the woods, ignoring the impatient hisses coming from the bag. Giri picks it up and makes his way towards the forest. He opens the bag, and the cobra languidly slithers into the woods. Its black scales glitter like sequins in the sunlight as it makes its way back home.\n\nWhat Were 29 Exotic Snakes Doing in a U.K. Trash Bin?\n\nWriggling in pillowcases, trying to stay warm after being illegally abandoned.\nsnakes\n\nThe Snorkeling Grannies of New Caledonia\n\nThey're senior citizens turned citizen scientists.

"“We were able to bring together a cast of both veterans and new people who create an amazing sound for this production,” said Smith. “It is impossible to be unmoved by this music.”\n\nOn Wednesday, Sept. 12, Riverwalk will host an exclusive performance of Jekyll & Hyde for Hospice of Lansing, which will celebrate its 6th annual Theatre Night Out and Chef Show-Off Competition.\n\nThe event features a cocktail reception, a silent auction and hors d'oeuvres donated by chefs from area senior living centers. Guests will get to vote on their favorites that can include such dishes as Honey Ricotta Peach on Flatbread with Balsamic Reduction from Ingham County Medical Care Facility, Asian Meatballs form Independence Village of East Lansing and Red Flame Seedless Grapes rolled in Smoked Bleu Cheese and Toasted Almonds from Burcham Hills Retirement Community.\n\nMary Job directs the show that brings Over the Ledge’s 2018 season to an end.\n\nIt’s a memory play that opens Sept. 6 and closes Sept. 16. Set in Ireland, it features the adult Michael remembering the events of his life when he was 7 in 1936.\n\n“Dancing at the Lugnasa” was written by Brian Friel in 1990 and was first performed in Dublin, eventually moving to London and earning an Olivier Award for Best Play. When it made its way to Broadway, it earned a Tony for Best Play. In 1998, it would be adapted into a film starring Meryl Streep.\n\nBut it is the play with its music and its memories that is taking the stage at the Grand Ledge theater company for the next two weeks.\n\nMichael lives with his mother and her four unmarried sisters. The oldest, Kate, is the only one with a well-paying job. She teaches at a local school. Two other sisters knit gloves while the other keeps house. It is late summer and their eldest brother, Father Jack, a missionary to Uganda, has returned home, frail and suffering from malaria.\n\nThere is hope that perhaps there will be love in the lives of these five women. Michael’s dad flirts in and out of the scene leaving his mother with hopes of marriage. The sisters get a radio, bringing music to the house.\n\nBut some things aren’t going as they should. In this strictly Catholic community, the family’s reputation is at risk when Father Jack appears to have “gone native,” forgetting his English and showing much more sympathy for pagan rituals and customs than for Catholic ones.\n\nThe hardships of life come crashing in on the sisters, even as they dance in wild celebration of their lives, before their lives change forever. It’s a play that pays tribute to the power of love, loss, family and memory. One that shows the strength and bravery of each of the five sisters."

"Today, I celebrate my second anniversary as a proud member of the Power House Creatives community! Known as @steemitbloggers at the time when I joined, it is a close-knit group for people who are dedicated to blogging, producing quality content, and supporting each other as a true community. It had just been founded then, in October 2017, by @jaynie, one of the first people I started following upon joining Steem, because of her messages of inspiration and positivity.\n\nNot only was this the first Steem-related community I joined, but it was also the very reason I downloaded the Discord-app in the first place. Only later did I learn of TheRamble, PALnet, and other Discords for Steemians.\n\nThere have been so many people who have come-and-gone from the community since it started, it is difficult for me to remember the names of those who were there when I joined. However, I am fairly sure that @goldendawne was there in the beginning, and maybe @princessmewmew and @thereikiforest as well. Within the next few months so many awesome people joined us... Admin @zord189, our resident GIF Queen @traciyork, the charming @fionasfavorites, and too many others to call by name! Some have left to focus on other things and new members have joined, but the list has always included a fabulous list of people!\n\nThe interests of the members has always been varied, spanning art, poetry, creative writing (both fiction and non-fiction), music (we have talented musicians as well as music lovers), comic-strip creation, charity support, education, fashion, food & cooking, healthy lifestyle, science, nature, animals, outdoor adventure, photography, philosophy, precious metals collecting, investments & finance, blockchain technology, and so much more! There is a place for everyone, so long as they stick to the rules, which @jaynie & @zord189 enforce firmly, but fairly.\n\nThe members of Power House Creatives are individuals driven by a need to engage and assist others. This was recently highlighted by @jaynie in a post entitled The \"Ripple Reach\" of the Power House Creatives Community which talks about the following initiatives and projects founded on the Steem blockchain and/or Discord by PHC members:\n\nFrom the beginning, there has always been a protocol in-place for anyone to make their wishes known, should they want to join the community, by applying to become a member. However, for the first time since its inception, the doors to the Discord server have been opened wide for anyone to come in, freely, check out the community first-hand, and see if it's something that seems like a good fit.

"In the name of Allah, The Beneficent, The Merciful.\n\nDhul-Hijjah is the twelfth and last month of the Islamic calendar. And as the name implies, it is the month of pilgrimage when Muslims visit the house of Allah in Makkah when capable of doing so.\n\nLike the month of Ramadan, Dhul-Hijjah is also a month full of bountiful and innumerable blessings for the Muslims around the world.\n\nMany of us Muslims maximize our good deeds during the last ten nights of Ramadan, but the first ten days of the Dhul-Hijjah are just as valuable and Muslims should not miss out on this incredible opportunity to earn extra rewards on simple good deeds.\n\nThere are lots of Sunnah to follow during these first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah in order to earn more rewards from Almighty Allah (S.W.T) and some of the Sunnah are as follows:\n\nDoing a lot of Dhikr:\nThe Prophet (S.A.W) said: “There are no days greater and more beloved to Allah than these ten days of Dhul-Hijjah, so increase in them your declaration of the oneness of Allah (Tahleel), your exaltation of Him (Takbeer), and your praises of Him (Tahmeed).” Therefore, it’s advised to increase our Ibaadah during these days by doing lots of dhikr (remembrance).\n\nPraying at Night and Fast during the Day:\nDo you know that waking up to pray at Night for the first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah is equivalent to praying on laylatul Qadr?\n\n“The Prophet (S.A.W) said: “Fasting every day of the first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah is equivalent to fasting a year, and standing every night of them (in prayer) is the equivalent to standing on the night of Qadr.” Maa Sha Allah!\n\nThe above quoted Hadith answered the question asked earlier, and in this regard, we should increase in our Ibadah by fasting all days and praying during the Nights (Tahajjud).\n\nFasting on the day of Arafah:\nIf we are unable to fast from the beginning of the month of Dhul-Hijjah, then we should try to fast on the 9th day of Dhul Hijjah which is the day of Arafah, (Yaom l Arafah).\n\nThe day of Arafah is regarded as the most blessed day of the year. The Prophet (S.A.W) said: “There is no day on which Allah frees more people from the hell fire than on the day of Arafah.”\n\nOn this day of Arafah, Muslims are advised to seek forgiveness and seek Allah’s infinite mercy. The Prophet (S.A.W) said: “Fasting on the day of Arafah expiates the sins of the previous year and the following one.”\n\nFrom the points explained above, it proves that Almighty Allah (S.W.T) loves to be worshipped during these days, so, we should increase in our acts of Ibaadah by doing a lot of Dhikr, praying at night and fasting during the day, fasting on the day of Arafah, giving out alms (Sadaqa) and engaging in lot of more Sunnah during these days.\n\nMay Almighty Allah accept our worship as an act of Ibaadah. May He count us among the pious ones on the last day. May He spare our lives to witness Eid -l-kabeer and more of the festive periods on earth, in sound health and enormous wealth.\n\nI wish all Muslims in the World Eid Mubaarak in advance.\n\nBello kifayat Adenike is a 100 level student of Accounting, UDUS.\n\nWhat were you doing in an empty room?\n\nIslamophobia and the Media"

"In a new interview with KC Dyer, author of Finding Fraser, Outlander author Diana Gabaldon was asked about her writing. KC gave Diana the opportunity to address whatever she wanted at one point as she has been asked the same questions over and over again. Her answer or statements revolve around her audience and that term “strong women” or “strong woman.” You can read the entire interview over at EW.\n\nKD: Okay, a final question. As your friend—not to mention a fan of your series—I’ve read many articles about you and your books over the years. For this last question, I want to give you the opportunity to address any topic you always wish you were asked, or to correct a misapprehension about your stories. What do you want readers to know?\n\nDG: I understand—being that you’re a good friend and have been privy for years to my opinions of interviewers who ask the same six questions all the time—that this is a kind attempt to give me control of the interview, and I appreciate it.\n\nAs to popular misapprehensions—it won’t help, but since you give me the opportunity—let me say that I don’t write women’s fiction and I don’t write books for women. People will of course assume that any book written by a woman is plainly written for women—the more so, if the book in question has a female protagonist—but this isn’t the case.\n\nFrankly, I don’t write books for any audience; I write them for myself. Of course, I’ve been informed by more than one person that I was obviously a gay man in a previous life, and I suppose that might explain a few things….\n\nNow I have new and different marketing things going on, owing to having a successful TV series made of my books. While this is undoubtedly A Good Thing, it results in a few odd labels. Apparently I’m now a feminist icon, and I write “Strong Woman” books.\n\nOK … people have told me for years, “Oh, you write such strongwomen!” To which I’ve responded automatically with, “I don’t like stupid, whiny ones; why would I write about them?”\n\nBut now we have *gasp* television critics saying that I write Strong Women. Which means … automatic default to the easiest buzzword, regardless of whether the label is appropriate or informational. Now it’s all about Strong Women, and interviewers have started asking me questions about what was the first book I remember reading with a Strong Woman in it… (Alice in Wonderland, I suppose, but what kind of question is that?).\n\nIt’s not romance novels, but it’s still marginalization; the notion that only women care about books about women, and that a female writer can only write interestingly about women.\n\nOK, I know that’s not true; both because I can read, and because I get quite a lot of mail and messages from male readers who identify with and appreciate Jamie Fraser for who and what he is, and female readers who likewise appreciate the male characters—though often on different grounds.\n\nThe show has nearly as many male viewers as female ones—and a great many of those men are now potential book-readers, because they’ve had a chance to see what the story is (adventure, excitement, fighting, history, deep emotion of a kind that’s understandable to anyone regardless of gender) and what it isn’t."

"There’s been a lengthy silence on this blog due to many factors—mostly the arrival of a gorgeous B at the beginning of April—but I’ve never stopped knitting! So we have some catching up to do.",
null,
"Master B. joined our family in April.\n\nThese scrumptious leggings were finished before B. arrived, but the weather is only just starting to cool down now and we finally got them on to W for a few photos this morning.\n\nThey didn’t start out so fabulous. Yet again, I failed to swatch (who has time, right?) and then I failed to convert US needle sizes correctly, so used a 6mm needle instead of a 5mm needle for the main knitting. I also failed to measure my child and guessed at a size.\n\nBy the time I reached the gusset, I realised I had knit a ginormous pair of pantaloons that could have just about fit me!!\n\nFrogged. Whole process taking far, far longer than it would have to (a) swatch and (b) measure my intended wearer.\n\nSo, armed with a needle conversion chart printed and popped into my knitting organiser for future reference, and my measurements, I cast on again. This time, a gauge swatch!\n\nAfter sorting out my gauge, I got on with it and turned out this lovely pair of leggings. Only hitch being that the yarn is a little scratchy on delicate toddler skin. A thin pair of cotton leggings underneath sorted that out and he’s played happily in them all morning.\n\nNeedle: Would you know after all that I didn’t write it down? Can’t remember what I ended up using! But you’ll be doing your own gauge swatch, right?",
null,
"Designed with plenty of room for W’s cloth nappied bottom. They might sag a little sadly over a a slimline disposable.\n\nThe pattern is very well written, including photographs to help with some of the less common techniques, such as the double bum short rows. I still struggled a little with getting this to work, but I think that is more my issue than the author’s!\n\nI also ran into issues when I used a knit front & back (KFKB) technique for my increases in the increase round immediately below the waistband. I failed to subtract the stitch I used for the KFKB from the stitch count between the increases, and ran out of stitches prior to the end of the round. Again, my issue rather than the author’s! If I’d used a ‘make one’ technique of picking up the loop between stitches—as implied by the instructions—all would have been fine!",
null,
"I knit them a bit long to allow for upcoming growth spurts. The cuff looks cute folded up in the meantime.\n\nMy other main failing was due to a lack of finesse in using a self-striping yarn. I should have rejoined for the legs ensuring that the rejoin was the same colour on both legs and ideally the same as the colour joining them on the gusset. I didn’t do either of these things, so there’s a small odd stripe on one thigh and a huge thick stripe on the other. And the legs are not the same. But, hey, they are loopy leggings!"

"Anheuser-Busch and the lost of middle America\n\nThis Bud isn’t for you.\n\nI understand that the board of directors of a corporation is only responsible to it shareholders but it seems to me that there must be more. Anheuser-Busch was recently sold to InBev, a Germany company for a gazillon dollars ($52 billion). The stockholders, including Cindy McCain, are doing a victory dance. Everyone is happy. InBev gets to decrease competition. Upper management and stockholders of Anheuser-Busch get to cash in. Yahoo! Everybody dance.\n\nWhat? Who is that? It seems there are some folks that aren’t dancing, again. American Workers. The employees of Anheuser-Busch aren’t dancing. InBev is going to cut costs – their specialty. Cutting cost is business speak for firing workers and making the workers who stay work harder for less money. This is a very common scenario. We, Americans, should be use to this by now. We have seen companies buyout other companies and then institute “cost” savings. Wall Street loves this. The stock usually will skyrocket and folks with money will make more money. Unfortunately, everyone doesn’t benefit from these buyouts. Usually, a handful of people will make truckloads of money and several hundred to several thousand are out in the cold.\n\nI use to live in St. Louis, the former home of Anheuser-Busch. The gateway to the West is going through some significantly tough times. If you drive into Downtown from the west on one of the interstate highways (if you drive in from the east do not stop, you are going through East St. Louis. It makes St. Louis look like Beverly Hills), you will notice exactly what I’m talking about. There is an area just outside of downtown which is completely abandoned. There are huge factories and warehouses which are showing their age. They speak of a time when St. Louis was a vibrant city. That time has long since passed. The companies that owned these buildings have moved on or gone out of business. These buildings cry out for help from a wrecking ball and a bulldozer.\n\nOne of the last major employers in St. Louis is/was Anheuser-Busch. If you haven’t toured the plant, you should. It is amazing how much beer those guys turn out. The operation is very impressive. It is also clear that the workers are/were proud to be employed there.\n\nI bought my first house in St. Louis. The guy who lived across the street from me in this new sub-division in the middle of suburbia was a truck driver. He had been working for Budweiser for over 30 years. He was in the house of his dreams with his wife of over 30 years. They were living in a golf course community. This was/is the American dream. This is what is suppose to happen when you work hard and save your money in America. But more and more, the American dream has been sold to the highest bidder. Wages are cut. Benefits are slashed. Workers are fired and asked to “re-train” and a few at the top make out like bandits.\n\nDo major corporations have an obligation to the community in which the reside? Without the labor of that community could the corporation have prospered?\n\nIn order for America, to make it in this new Century, we have to make things. We have understand that we are all in this together. If the workers are making money then management is making money. It has to be a partnership in order for everyone to benefit.",

"For a free media",
null,
"IN the face of the inflexible attitude of the government on the proposed media regulatory body issue, journalists’ associations have decided to hold protests outside parliament next week. Media organizations and journalists have been forced to take this step because Information Minister Fawad Chaudhry has dug in his heels on the proposed body without realizing — or perhaps despite realizing — that he may be triggering a vociferous campaign by all stakeholders who cherish the constitutional right to freedom of expression, and who believe in the sanctity of an independent media. The government is adding insult to injury by not even sharing the draft of the bill even though media representatives have been demanding to at least see the details of the regulatory authority.\n\nIf the leaked first draft of the bill is to be believed, the Pakistan Media Development Authority combines all existing media regulatory bodies into one and will have sweeping powers to haul up journalists and media organizations in front of tribunals that can slap them with stiff penalties, fines and even imprisonment. The proposal has justifiably elicited protests from media organizations, civil society bodies as well as opposition parties. All are united in condemning this move by the government and labelling it a brazen attempt to throttle the media. While the information minister — who now says this proposed body is his initiative, and his alone — is arguing that he will not back down, there have not even been discussions with the genuine representatives of media organizations and journalists’ associations, and it is incorrect to claim that the relevant people in the media have been consulted. It is alarming that the government is adamant to bulldoze this body through parliament without paying heed to the genuine concerns of stakeholders. Is the government, and its information minister oblivious to the fact that since 2002 over 70 journalists have lost their lives in the line of duty? Are they unaware that the banned TTP has recently issued a stark warning to journalists regarding their coverage? It is such issues of safety and security of media workers that should be of the highest priority for the government which, instead, is obsessed with trying to gag the voice of independent journalists and media organizations. The proposed regulatory body must be resisted with full force by all those who cherish a free media and the crucial role it plays in strengthening democracy and holding to account those in power."

"Original Dead Space writer Antony Johnston has chimed in on Dead Space 3. Speaking to NowGamer, the writer–who had no involvement with Dead Space 3–said the game’s focus on action was a “necessary evil” to attract more gamers.\n\n“I’m personally a big fan of old-school survival horror, and that was one of the main reasons I wanted to work on Dead Space. So the greater emphasis on big action in the sequels means they’re not really for me,” Johnston said.\n\nJohnston added that Dead Space 3’s new focus on action is a “necessary evil in order to broaden the fan base,” and noted that “it’s a very difficult balancing act to pull off. So far, I think Visceral has done an admirable job of maintaining that balance.”\n\nFor Johnston, Visceral Games‘ decision to “go bigger” in Dead Space 3 came as no surprise. He said it was a logical progression for the series, and in fact one that was needed to keep the franchise from becoming stale.\n\n“I know the developers always wanted to go bigger, in terms of scope. And I’ve mentioned before that the universe we created was huge, with lots of elements, which simply didn’t make it into the first game,” he said. “So to get that story told, to round out the universe, it was inevitable the settings and environments would open out a bit, become a bit more epic in scale…otherwise you’d just have the same game on a different ship each time, and that’s pretty dull.”"

"John Clements and Ralph Richardson in The Four Feathers\n\nIn 1895, the Royal North Surrey Regiment is called to active service to join the army of Sir Herbert Kitchener in the Mahdist War against the forces of The Khalifa (John Laurie). Forced into an army career by family tradition and fearful he might prove a coward in battle, Lieutenant Harry Faversham (John Clements) resigns his commission on the eve of its departure. As a result, his three friends and fellow officers, Captain John Durrance (Ralph Richardson) and Lieutenants Burroughs (Donald Gray) and Willoughby (Jack Allen), show their contempt of his perceived cowardice by each sending him a white feather attached to a calling card. When his fiancée, Ethne Burroughs (June Duprez), says nothing in his defence, he bitterly demands a fourth from her. She refuses, but he plucks one from her fan.\n\nHarry confides in an old mentor and former surgeon in his father's regiment, Dr. Sutton (Frederick Culley), that he must attempt to make amends for his disgrace. He departs for Egypt. There, he adopts the disguise of a despised mute Sangali native, with the help of Dr. Harraz (Henry Oscar), to hide his lack of knowledge of the language.\n\nDuring the army's advance, Durrance is ordered to take his company through the desert to lure the Khalifa's army away from Omdurman. Durrance is blinded by sunstroke before he can lead the company to safety and it is overrun and wiped out. He is left for dead on the battlefield, and Burroughs and Willoughby are captured. However, the disguised Faversham takes the delirious Durrance across the desert and down the Nile to the vicinity of a British fort. As he puts Durrance's white feather into a letter that Durrance kept with him, Harry is mistaken for a robber. Faversham is placed in a convict gang, but escapes to continue his quest.\n\nSix months later, the blind Durrance has returned to England. Out of pity, Ethne agrees to marry him. At dinner with Ethne, her father, and Dr. Sutton, as Durrance is relating the tale of his miraculous rescue, the white feather drops out of his letter, revealing to the others that his rescuer was Harry Faversham. Nobody has the heart to tell Durrance.\n\nBurroughs and Willoughby are thrown into a dungeon in Omdurman with other enemies of the Khalifa. Still playing the addled Sangali, Faversham surreptitiously gives them hope of escape and passes them a file, but arouses the suspicions of the guards. He is flogged and imprisoned with the others. He reveals his identity to his friends and organizes an escape during the coming attack of Kitchener's army. Faversham leads the other prisoners in overpowering their guards and seizing the Khalifa's arsenal.\n\nDurrance learns of Faversham's deeds from a newspaper account read to him by Dr. Sutton. He dictates a letter to Ethne, releasing her from their engagement on the false pretext of going to Germany for a prolonged course of treatment to restore his eyesight. Some time later, Harry attends a dinner with his friends and Ethne, where General Burroughs (C. Aubrey Smith), Ethne's father, acknowledges that Harry has forced all to take back their feathers—except Ethne. He playfully makes her take back her white feather by interrupting the general, in the midst of his favourite war story about the Battle of Balaclava, to correct his embellishments; the irritated Burroughs complains that he will never be able to tell that story again.\n\nThe movie was mostly filmed on location in the Sudan in Technicolor.[1]\n\nThe 1st Battalion The East Surrey Regiment were used in period uniforms for scenes in which they withstood the Dervish advance en masse.\n\nThe Four Feathers, a novel written by A. E. W. Mason, has been adapted for film on numerous other occasions:\n\nThis version is widely considered the best of all the numerous film adaptations of the novel.[2][3][4] Critic Michael Sragow praises the \"film's gritty magic\", calling it \"next to Lawrence of Arabia (1962), the most harrowingly beautiful of all desert spectaculars.\"[2] \"They [the film crew] and the cast all do their jobs so well that the action becomes poetic.\"[2] The Time Out review cites its \"superb Technicolor camerawork ... and solid performances all round.\"[4] It has a 100% freshness rating from Rotten Tomatoes.[5]\n\nGeorges Périnal and Osmond Borradaile were nominated for the Academy Award for Best Cinematography, Color.\n\nThe film was nominated for the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival and the Mussolini Cup at the Venice Film Festival.\n\nIt is available on DVD and Blu-ray from the Criterion Collection."

"While the cover may show a picture of two opponents in a wrestling hold, The Gimmicks by Chris McCormick is about far more than matches. The novel chronicles the stories of Ruben Petrosian, Avo Gregoryan, and Mina, how their lives intersect, and how they love and hurt each other multiple times.\n\nEach character overlaps with the others in ways that are both fortuitous and disastrous. Ruben, small and jealous, first feels envious of Mina’s backgammon luck and then goes on to seek revenge for Turkey’s denial of the Armenian Genocide with the Armenian Secret Army for the Liberation of Armenia in the 1980s. Avo, large and kind, comes to live with his cousin’s cousin Ruben and his family in 1971, gets caught up in a ploy to be a part of Mina’s backgammon success, follows a request by Ruben to go to the United States, strikes off on his own as a wrestler, and finds himself misunderstood in several situations. Mina, lucky and earnest, garners success in playing backgammon, and while her luck holds in some ways, she experiences various losses throughout her life. Terry Krill, Avo’s wrestling manager, reluctantly begins to recall his past and piece together the others’ stories 10 years after the fact in 1989.\n\nTheir converging lives are told through chapters grounded in particular times and places and through the reflections of these people. During a reunion between Mina and Avo, she tells him, “Our lives aren’t metaphors, halved or broken or split. Our lives are our lives, whole if they feel complete, whole if they feel incomplete.” Her message generalizes the agonizing challenges that they encounter. Good intentions might not be enough or allow them to fulfill their desires.\n\nEarly in the novel, Mina muses in a journal: “That the world is round makes me hope that time is round, too, and that maybe I’ll loop to the start one day.” At that unexpected reunion with Avo later, “she felt the muscles in her face mirroring his, signaling a blue smile of her own, and she knew all at once about the roundness of time.” Such parallels and recurring ideas appear throughout the book -- similes and metaphors rewarding for the reader. Another is when Mina’s husband recalls the story of his first wife and mother: \"He defended one to the other with all of his heart, so that he ended up without the trust of either.” Similarly soon after, Mina accuses Avo of being caught between two people, of being \"someone who confused love for something you could only loan out to one person at a time.\" These threads bring the characters’ stories that sprawl across time and countries together with poignant and harsh realities.\n\nMcCormick, also the author of the earlier short story collection, Desert Boys, grew up in California and graduated from the University of Michigan with an MFA. He teaches at Minnesota State University, Mankato.\n\nMcCormick visits Ann Arbor to read at Literati Bookstore on Friday, January 10, at 7 pm. I interviewed him ahead of time.\n\nQ: Tell us about yourself and how you came to study in Ann Arbor. What was it like to move to the Midwest?\nA: A big change for a California kid like me! I grew up in the Mojave Desert about an hour away from Los Angeles, where my parents had met as coworkers at Sears. My mother had immigrated from Soviet Armenia at the age of 19, and my father was born and raised in Detroit before joining the Navy and moving to Hollywood. I think my dual life, along with growing up in a place so geographically near to, but psychologically isolated from, a big city helped to develop my creativity. I played music and wrote stories, and I applied to Michigan a few years after graduating from college. Winter hit hard, but my father gave me survival tips, and I got to spend all my time reading and writing fiction, surrounded by brilliant writers, so I was happy to put up with the weather.\n\nQ: How did earning an MFA here influence your writing? What compels you to write?\nA: I love good stories and characters as much as anyone, but for me, everything has to emerge from the language itself. I always joke with my students that we wouldn’t remember Hamlet’s encounter with the ghost of his father if he had said, “Dad, is that you?” Instead, he says, “Angels and ministers of grace defend us,” and the moment is indelible, vesselled forth perfectly through the language. The MFA program helped me practice using my best language to ask meaningful questions meaningfully, to entertain, to build complex relationships, all the things I love in fiction. But probably the biggest influence the MFA had on me was the community of writers I met while I was there, many of whom are still among my closest friends.\n\nQ: You are Armenian, and your new novel is set partly in Armenia with Armenian characters. The acknowledgments mention a grant that allowed you to travel to Armenia. How did you go about piecing Avo, Mina, and Ruben’s stories together? Had you been to Armenia before, and how did the trip influence the novel?\nA: Just from the stories I grew up hearing my mother and my extended Armenian family tell, I had such a vivid -- and impossible to verify -- version of Armenia in my head. But I had never been to Armenia until last summer, and it was fascinating to compare my imagined version to the real place -- though, of course, there’s no single “real” place. Every place changes depending on who’s looking at it, and if you asked Avo and Mina and Ruben, I’m sure they’d all have different answers as to what Armenia is. But it was tremendously moving for me to visit my mother’s -- and my characters’ -- hometown, and I was definitely influenced by the trip even if the novel wasn’t.\n\nQ: As I read The Gimmicks, I was drawn to Avo, particularly his good nature and desire to leave places. He is both a wrestler and poet. It seems like he can never have what he wants and loves. How did you develop and relate -- or not relate -- to Avo?\nA: It’s funny that you say “good nature.” I’m charmed by him, too, but I also think he can be read as a cowardly character -- or maybe I just think Mina would think so. He’s someone who wants to be free but is burdened by a historical inheritance that feels like a responsibility he has to act on. While my other characters either embrace or reject that inheritance totally, he sees the value in both sides. That kind of “bothness” can be weak equivocation -- “There were good people on both sides” -- or it can be a mature understanding of the complex, ambiguous nature of the world. The novel sees Avo trying to develop from one kind of “bothness” to the other. I guess I do identify with him in that way and sympathize with him.\n\nQ: Let’s talk more about your writing. When Ruben stumbles upon a church, he finds that \"it was quiet -- not dead quiet, but the other kind, the living quiet of green things at the surface of the sea. The living quiet of blood to the ears, of memories swarming and piling and competing to be remembered.” You include metaphors and similes throughout your writing. What inspires them?\nA: It’s important to me that these bursts of figurative language seem to come from inside the characters, not from the outside -- from me, that is. In this case, Ruben is experiencing this sudden quiet, after a day of noise, in a place where he is confronted by his own faith. He’s also remembering -- I don’t want to spoil anything from the book, but he’s haunted by an image in which life and death have been conflated: a literal death that has given him a new kind of life. That memory -- his memory -- makes space for and gives rise to more complex language.\n\nQ: The Gimmicks also includes wrestling. Wrestling manager Terry Krill narrates that \"if we watched a wrestling match closely enough, we could spot a devoted focus in every slam, a tenderness in every hold. It’s like one of those modern paintings. … From a distance you see violence. Up close you find love.” Why wrestling? Were you a wrestling fan before writing this novel, or did you research the sport as alluded to in the acknowledgements?\nA: Like a lot of people my age, I grew up watching wrestling on TV. Although I’m not as big a fan as I was as a kid, pro wrestling still fascinates me in that the wrestlers are pantomiming violence but are in fact protecting each other with every move. The talent it takes to create that illusion -- I find it strangely moving. Wrestling also raises all sorts of questions about masculinity, brotherhood, and justice that I found relevant to my own questions, about my characters and their relationships to each other and to history.\n\nQ: It’s a new year. What books are on your stack to read or recommend?\nA: So many good books! Several of my friends from the Michigan MFA program, actually, have books coming out this year: I’ve already gotten to read -- and love -- Marcelo Hernandez Castillo’s memoir, Children of the Land, which comes out in just a few weeks; Brit Bennett’s second novel, The Vanishing Half, out in June; and Dan Hornsby’s debut novel, Via Negativa, coming in August. And I’m really looking forward to Nate Marshall’s next poetry collection, Finna, which will publish later this year. Looking beyond my Ann Arbor cohort, though: Louise Erdrich is one of the reasons I became a writer, so every new book by her is an event for me. The Night Watchman comes out in March, I think, and I can’t wait for it.\n\nQ: You’ve written a short story collection and now a novel. What are you thinking about next?\nA: Maybe a short novel! It’s too early to say, but I hope music will play a part.\n\nChris McCormick returns to Ann Arbor to read from \"The Gimmicks\" at Literati Bookstore on Friday, January 10, at 7 pm. Read a sample of the novel here."

"Optus, the second-largest telecommunications company in Australia, has experienced an API security incident – and it might come with a $1 million price tag. That’s the amount being demanded by the attacker who has breached Optus and claims to hold more than 11 million user records. The hacker has threatened to sell the data in parcels, if Optus doesn’t pay within a week. But wait – it gets worse! The hacker has now contacted Optus customers directly demanding that they pay $2K AUD, or their PII will be sold for “fraudulent activity within 2 days.”\n\nHow could this type of breach occur? The widely acknowledged cause – unauthenticated APIs.\n\nUnauthenticated APIs (or open APIs), the purported culprits in this incident, represent one of the most common API security exposures. According to the OWASP API Security Top 10, broken user authentication constitutes the second biggest API vulnerability. Bad actors know they can easily exfiltrate data from unauthenticated APIs, making this vulnerability a key target.\n\nLike organizations in many other industries, Telcos and ISPs have begun to broadly adopt APIs to drive digital transformation initiatives. According to a recent report published by Acumen Research and Consulting, the global telecommunications API market will experience a CAGR of more than 20% from 2022 to 2030. The report attributed the growth to increasing competition across telco organizations to provide improved and enhanced services for their customers.\n\nAPIs now exist in every IoT device, from security cameras to video doorbells. They have become ubiquitous. In our work with companies, we frequently see IoT devices suffer this kind of breach. APIs may be unauthenticated, as in this case, or they could be using very simplistic authentication, such as the default basic authentication, which can be easily breached.\n\nBecause of the increasing adoption of such IoT devices in the telecommunications sector, telcos and ISPs must be aware of these threats. In addition, they need to ensure that everyone within their organizations understands different security requirements and that teams communicate with each other about security steps that have – or have not – been taken in each stage of the API design, development, and deployment process. Very often, API development straddles multiple people and groups, and reuse is a conscious design principle. However, sometimes when an API is used into a new sequence, an earlier security step in a previous API isn’t included.\n\nISPs require strong authentication to protect their devices and their data. Moreover, the risk extends far beyond data exfiltration. In addition to exploiting authentication vulnerabilities to take over user accounts, attackers can also gain access to all the data that a device is entitled to access. For example, attackers could control the whole network if a telco’s network equipment can be exploited. That’s a huge risk!\n\nHuman error nearly always plays a role in breaches, but it’s not just a case of individuals being more careful. APIs touch all areas within an organization, not just development. Typically multiple teams share ownership across APIs. Often miscommunication (or incomplete communication) can lead to problems. For example, infrastructure teams may assume that the development team has already managed authentication requirements. They may believe that the API has already gone through a security review when, in fact, it hasn’t.\n\nUnfortunately, miscommunication is fairly commonplace. Moreover, in the case of Optus, it appears that the network team unintentionally made a test network available on the Internet, which could then be easily exploited.\n\nWhat Steps Telcos Should Take\n\nLike many other API breaches, the Optus security incident highlights the importance of dedicated API security.\n\nThe proliferation of APIs within telco and ISP environments has created new and complex security risks that cannot be fully defended with existing regulations and traditional security solutions. To protect this growing attack surface, telcos must:\n\nTo identify potential API threats, organizations must understand how APIs normally operate within their environment. Having this insight will enable telcos to quickly identify and speed threat response before a bad actor accesses their critical user data…or worse.\n\nThe Salt Security API Protection Platform is the industry-leading API security solution.

"The enormous stalks of bamboo that flanked the austere stage at San Francisco's Cowell Theatre for \"A Gathering of Gamelans\" provided an apt visual metaphor for the themes that emerged from the eight-day festival, which featured nine San Francisco Bay Area performance groups. Bamboo grows allover Southeast Asia and represents a common resource among different Southeast Asian cultures; likewise, tuned percussion music—in the form of gong-chime ensembles—is also widespread in the region. This tall bamboo variety is not native to the Bay Area, yet appears to thrive when transplanted (festival organizer Larry Reed brought the bamboo from his own San Francisco back yard)—so too gamelan and the theatre and dance genres it accompanies thrive in the California milieu.\n\nGamelan is a foreign-language term that virtually all aficionados of \"world music\" recognize; it suggests an orchestra from Indonesia consisting of tuned percussion instruments. The term is often broadened to include bamboo or string ensembles that imitate the stratified musical textures of gamelan music, or even metallophone-dominated ensembles from mainland Southeast Asia and the Philippines, and this wider use was evident in this festival. I suspect that the worldwide broadening of the category of gamelan is attributable at least in part to the international name recognition that it affords. From the stage during one of the performances, Larry Reed confessed to the audience that calling the festival \"A Gathering of Gamelans\" was not, strictly speaking, [End Page 401] accurate. He quipped that other alternatives (e.g., \"A Meeting of Metallophones\") had been considered and rejected. What was more important than linguistic precision, he suggested, was that all sorts of Southeast Asian and Southeast Asian-inspired performing arts were flourishing in the San Francisco Bay Area. According to the festival's program, Reed felt \"moved to honor the artistic traditions of Southeast Asia\"; the festival was intended \"to offer audiences a way to experience first-hand the clear (and subtle) relationships among various traditions.\"\n\nThe relationships among the traditions are quite different in the United States than they are in Southeast Asia. Although there is no large Indonesian community in the Bay Area, six of the nine performing groups presented musical styles from Indonesia (Balinese, Javanese, and Sundanese). The Indonesians in these groups are for the most part professional artists whose presence in the United States relates directly to their expertise as musicians, dalang (puppetmasters), and dancers (i.e., they were invited to the United States to teach Indonesian arts to Americans). They preside over ensembles peopled mostly by interested Americans, including myself, only a very few of whom claim any Indonesian heritage. In contrast, the Bay Area's Thai, Filipino, and Cambodian groups consist almost entirely of immigrants from those countries or their children and grandchildren. Given these different pedigrees, it stands to reason that many of the goals and motivations for these groups—as well as the teaching and learning processes and performance styles they develop—will be quite different. That doesn't mean, however, that it is inappropriate for these groups to come together to share their accomplishments with one another and with the community at large.\n\nAnd in this respect, the festival represented quite well the San Francisco Bay Area's diverse Southeast Asian performance scene. It reflected a remarkable social milieu that, as Larry Reed put it during a radio interview with Tania Ketenjian on her KALX radio show Sight Unseen, is known for \"accepting people for who they are, that allows them to maintain their own identity, their own culture, as well as be part of our culture.\" This clearly applies to immigrants to California who struggle to make sense of their dual identities; it applies equally well, I think, to some native Californians, who at times find themselves alienated from their own society and find relief through identification with an alternative coherent world view. Both approaches have the happy side...",
