"Voting at the checkout\n\nThere are choices to be made next month when the country goes to the polls. But first, the shopping, writes Leigh Paterson.\n\nSome time ago, my friend and I were told we were more Countdown than New World.\n\nThe remark didn’t go down well; we knew what was being said. A class distinction was being made based on where we shopped for food. I had been scrutinised for many things previously, but supermarkets was a new one.",
null,
"It has become a running joke between my friend and I, but the comment has stayed with me like a tattoo. This business of making sense of the world or creating your own brand identity based on what you buy, and where you buy it from, is part of Western consumerist culture.\n\nConsumerism is a designed construct and one I’d like to investigate in this column.\n\nWith next month’s general election in mind, I would like to suggest that supermarket checkouts are perhaps more important than election booths. Consumerism is a form of voting. As designed entities, supermarkets are fascinating places we have constructed to help us hunt and gather, a primal pursuit. The act of shopping is a negotiation of choices and decisions: a transaction, which again is akin to voting.\n\nIn this survival of the fittest environment, that shares much with a casino (no windows, no clocks, bad music), a supermarket shopper is a gambler. Brands ask you to take risks. Through design, packaging promotes the best intentions of a product. But as a consumer how engaged are you in discovering what you need to know about the brand. Have you visited the factory floor? Do you know the conditions in which the product was made? How much are the workers paid? Where did the ingredients in that product come from? Do you believe in the company’s values and do you want to be aligned with them?\n\nIt is also important to acknowledge and reflect on whether you have the ability to make choices within that transaction. Many individuals would like to pay $8 for \"ethical\" cornflakes but are not in a position to do so. Regardless, you are absolutely taking risks every time you select a product and are passively engaged in a political transaction. It could even be said that you are endorsing the behaviour and practice of that company by giving them your money. This is a kind of \"consumer election\" that happens more frequently than general elections and is perhaps more influential in mandating change and reflecting what \"business as normal\" looks like. It is incredibly powerful.\n\nDesign in supermarkets allows everything to be \"dressed up\" in an artificial environment. Designers have a star role in these environments; telling consumers what they want to hear and solving all their survival problems. A shopper moves from brand to brand, positioning and aligning themselves in the consumption of the product. Design is on display and influences consumers as they buzz around in a dream-like state. And it is a type of dream state, because to try to get your head around all the brands and the noise that goes along with them is a full-time job.\n\nThe practice of design, to enable brands to promote and reflect the perception of choice and freedom by consumers within any market, is a false reality. However, a consumer experience while shopping can be incredibly powerful if the shopper can get under the skin of who owns the brand of choice.\n\nAs an infographic from Oxfam shows, a complex web of conglomerate ownership ties one brand to another. For example, Mondelez owns Toblerone, Philadelphia spreads, Oreo biscuits and Freddo Frog chocolate: products that are marketed and positioned independently of each other, obscuring the common ownership. And in the example of Mondelez’ acquisition of Cadbury, it is apparent that this ownership model can destroy jobs and impact product ranges at the stroke of a pen. Pineapple lumps suddenly become a weird New Zealand lolly that won’t fit within a global market view. Does the whole world want to drink Coke and eat Mars bars? I’m not sure I would want to live in a monoculture where food is concerned.",
null,
"An infographic by Oxfam shows the small number of companies that control many well known food brands.\n\nGiven the staggering vertical and horizontal integration of brands, that seem to move and change like a swarm, design becomes integral to creating and promoting difference. That’s why even though we think we know Nestlé as a brand we might not know they are in a joint venture with L’Oréal, which owns the Body Shop, Ralph Lauren and YSL. It’s like brands lead double lives in the way they operate in the marketplace and keeping up with all the \"lived\" parts of the brand is big business.\n\nTake the Kraft Heinz merger in July, 2015. A quick online search reveals a complex picture. I was shocked to see how many brands Kraft Heinz owns in New Zealand, brands I had no idea had any link to Kraft Heinz. Not content with the spread of influence it currently has, there was a bid earlier this year by Kraft Heinz to acquire food manufacturer Unilever. That is a very powerful couple bringing another partner into the marriage.\n\nUK Prime Minister Theresa May’s head was shaking as the Unilever takeover was being mooted due to the impact it might have on manufacturing and the job market. Governments are asked to step in from time to time to try to control companies’ power and influence in markets. But one begins to wonder if it’s the country or the company that is in control.\n\nHowever, recent examples indicate that lobbying by citizens can have an impact. We have seen this in relation to investments by the NZ Super Fund and other KiwiSaver providers. Pressure has been brought to bear where fund managers are still investing in weapons, for example by not for profits such as Action Station. Perhaps in the future these investment funds will be strategic in creating corporate change. Perhaps we should be asking similar questions about what our money is supporting when we are at the supermarket.\n\nConsumers also exercise power when they choose not to buy something, saying no to a particular brand. We are always making decisions, picking something off a shelf. In this respect maybe being a Countdown voter and/or a New World voter shows us much more about ourselves than food, highlighting what and who we buy into and why.\n\nIt is a manifestation of the idea that if you buy it, you believe in it.\n\n- Leigh Paterson is a design lecturer at Otago Polytechnic.",

"We might also know Nestlé is Swiss, with a propensity to promote powder where there should be whole milk.\n\nThere are other issues than consumer choice. Supermarkets that detain elderly ladies with mistaken allegations of shoplifting are off the list."

"It is no surprise that Twitter is working on a subscription service for months and it has also confirmed in earlier statements that the company is exploring a subscription model of the micro-blogging platform. However, there were no further details revealed on any report and no speculations on the internet whatsoever Although, the company is keeping busy and keeping the spotlight occupied with new features and a recent acquisition as well.\n\nAnyhow, just recently, app researcher Jane Manchun Wong tweeted on Saturday that she has discovered the cost of Twitter’s new subscription model. “Twitter Blue”, she mentioned was the name of the company’s new subscription service and it is most likely to cost USD 2.99 per month inclusive of a bunch of new features missing on the regular platform.\n\nAs mentioned in a report by the Verge, Twitter Blue will include new features including a bookmark collection and an Undo feature. There are also speculations made by Wong that the social networking company’s new subscription-based platform could be a tier-based business model which she assumes could mean, the more you pay, the more premium version of Twitter you experience. Get ready for a less cluttered and more organised Twitter Blue, starting at just $2.99 per month, according to recent reports.\n\nTwitter is a very popular and widely used application all across the globe and a subscription service sounds very profitable for the company and beneficial for Pro-Twitterati but there are serious doubts that an average user would like to spend on Twitter Blue, just for a couple of new features and an aesthetic appeal with features like Bookmark Collections, if it is introduced at all.\n\nHowever, let us not forget that these are more or less just speculations made by an app researcher and according to The Verge, Twitter did not respond immediately to a request for comment. Anyhow, you should also know that app researcher Jane Manchun Wong has a well-known history for being typically accurate about her speculations and Twitter Blue might be on its way.\n\nAs mentioned earlier, Twitter is keeping us busy by launching new features including taller images on the platform at 4K quality, adding a search option for Android users and a Tip Jar for donating money or tipping your favourite influencer, creator, journalist etc.\n\nThe latest that Twitter has just announced is its soft prompt to iOS 14.5 users to protect its targeted user-focused advertisement dollars, something that Facebook did not handle very well."

"FKA twigs is back with a new song called “home with you”. It’s the newest single from her upcoming album, Magdalene, and arrives with a self-directed music video. Stream it below.\n\nFKA twigs has given us a good idea of what to expect from Magdalene thanks to singles “Holy Terrain”, “Cellophane”, and the short film Practice about the creative process behind the latter track. “home with you” sheds light on what to expect from the album’s melodramatic ballads, as it turns her operatic voice into a digital soundbite, filtering it through a weird vocoder while dramatic piano chords ring out beneath her. Later, crunchy beats slam into the frame and FKA twigs belts out some moving falsettos. It almost sounds like a distorted Lana Del Rey song.\n\nIn a press release, FKA twigs credits the song as being a representation of suburban life and an example of why people should always follow their creative intuition. “You can take the girl out of the suburbs but you can’t take the suburbs out of the girl,” she said. “‘home with you’ reinforced my reoccurring suspicion that when i’m in doubt, I should follow my gut and go home.”\n\nIn the music video for “home with you”, directed by FKA twigs herself, the artist can be seen walking through a shadowy club, looking equal parts exhausted and ready to revolt. She leaves the club to take a ride in a convertible, busting out some choreographed dance moves with friends, until they change into white gowns and get lost in nature. As with most FKA twigs videos, it’s a sight to see. Watch it below.\n\nMagdalene is scheduled for release on November 8th via Young Turks. It took three years to make and was created in London, New York, and Los Angeles with a little help from Nicolas Jaar, the album’s co-producer. FKA twigs previously described Magdalene as “really fragile,” having been made while she recovered from emotional and physical distress. (Last summer, she revealed that she’d had surgery in 2017 to remove six large fibroid tumors from her uterus.) It will be her first record since 2015’s M3LL155X.\n\nAs previously announced, FKA twigs is going on tour to promote the album. It kicks off in November, but you can catch her at festivals along the way too, including AFROPUNK Atlanta and Camp Flog Gnaw. Revisit the full list of Magdalene tour dates and find tickets here."

"Hits a six off the penultimate ball; Kerala and Vidarbha have it easy against Himachal Pradesh and Maharashtra\n\nStanding amid ruins, debutant Abhinav Manohar towered over the Saurashtra bowlers and took Karnataka to a fighting two-wicket victory with a penultimate ball-six for a place in the quarterfinals of the Syed Mushtaq Ali T20 Trophy here on Tuesday.\n\nAfter Saurashtra’s decision to bat seemed to have backfired on being restricted to 145 for seven despite Sheldon Jackson’s 43-ball 50 (3×4, 3×6), Karnataka found the going tough when reduced to 60 for four in the 10th over.\n\nThough Saurashtra skipper Jaydev Unadkat (4/22) returned to add two wickets in his fourth over and Kushang Patel scalped one, Abhinav was not to be denied his moment of glory.\n\nSoon after the dismissal of K.C. Cariappa in the final over, Abhinav sent the fifth ball from Dharmendrasinh Jadeja into the stands behind mid-wicket to script a thrilling win.\n\nIn the morning, too, the winning stroke was a six as Vidarbha coasted to a surprisingly easy seven-wicket victory over Maharashtra.\n\nMeanwhile, between the victories of Vidarbha and Karnataka at the Ferozeshah Kotla ground, Kerala cruised to its third successive eight-wicket victory after facing Himachal Pradesh at the Air Force ground.\n\nRajasthan vs Vidarbha; Bengal vs Karnataka; Tamil Nadu vs Kerala; Gujarat vs Hyderabad."

"The Duke of Cambridge has revealed his eldest son loves being outdoors and \"needs\" that time to run about.\n\nSpeaking in his upcoming ITV documentary, 'Prince William: A Planet For Us All', said: \"Seeing my children, seeing the passion in their eyes and the love for being outdoors. They find a bug or they love watching how bees are forming honey. George, particularly, if he’s not outdoors, he’s quite like a caged animal. He needs to get outside.\"\n\nMeanwhile, Prince William - who also has Princess Charlotte, five, and Prince Louis, two, with his wife, the Duchess of Cambridge - previously revealed he has a \"new sense of purpose\" in protecting the planet now he has children.\n\nThe 38-year-old royal said: \"Now I have got George, Charlotte and now Louis in my life - your outlook does change. You want to hand over to the next generation, the wildlife in a much better condition. I always believe it is possible to give young people hope and belief that things can get fixed. I have the belief that if we all work together, we can make a difference.\"\n\nThe documentary was filmed over two years and sees the Duke of Cambridge \"champion global action on conservation and climate change.\" It also includes a meeting with naturalist Sir David Attenborough, with William's wife Catherine admitting their children would be cross that they'd met the 'Blue Planet' presenter without them.\n\nCatherine told him: \"The children were very upset that we were coming to see you and they weren't coming. They're massive fans of yours.\"\n\nDavid said: \"Kids know an awful lot about what is happening to the world.\"",

"Here is another rebel, one that has been a rebel since the 60s, when Maoism and Marxism were all the rage in academic and new left discourses. These concepts are still alive and evident in politically and ideologically charged films in the 2010s, with the same revolutionary attitude and power.\n\nThe desire to experiment with avant-garde filmmaking has been limited to ludic postmodernism, with products destined to a niche of very selected consumers and therefore diminished social power, so this effort by Godard is extremely valuable because it escapes the confines of the exclusive cinematic circles by virtue of the director’s fame.\n\nThe film itself is a tribute to the power to break all rules, something that digital cinema has the power and the obligation to do. Godard creates a collage of sensations toward a purely experiential cinema that also utilizes 3D as a medium through which the audience is confused, alienated, and at the same time, woken up by an endless dream.\n\nThis is the burden of representation, the servitude to a certain type of codification of the cinematic image that has been put in place since the late 70s and from which, according to Godard, cinema has never fully recovered.\n\nGodard uses digital and the power of digital 3D to venture again into a world where everything is possible, and celebrates the death of cinema, while at the same time celebrating its continuation toward new heights.",

"Is this cinema? It is probably more of a conceptual art piece or a video art installation, or maybe it is cinema, which takes the implied participation of the spectator in the digital reprogramming of cinema and does something playful and self-reflective with it.\n\nThe film takes the concept of the loop, which has been explored by the Russian filmmakers of the 20s (Vertov used the loop to create a narrative), and deconstructs the idea to create the lack of a narrative. In fact, the way in which who is experiencing the artwork approaches the two looping images that the film proposes do not create a narrative but another inescapable loop.\n\nJean Louis Boissier tries to reshape the temporal dimension of cinema, and in particular digital cinema, by creating a film that does not play forward, does not play backward, but is looped. “As digital media replaces photography and film, it is only natural that the computer looping program should replace photography’s frozen moment and cinema’s linear narrative.”\n\nThese are words from the “The Databank of the Everyday”. The endless spiral of looping images is also a metaphor for the endless search for truth and desires of humanity.",

"The film was shot as part of the project “Digital Short Films by Three Filmmakers”, an initiative by the Jeonju International Film Festival. This film will not be one that makes an appearance in every theoretical book about cinema, but it’s an important film.\n\nThe director was famous for his punk filmmaking, and people suggested that he abandoned his roots for this film, but this is not at all true, as he uses the power of the digital to get literally close to the skin of the characters. It is skin-to-skin filmmaking of the highest level, with the power, at times, of the cinema of Sion Sono.\n\nWith a digital coldness, he depicts the urban alienation of Japan with touches of the great Tsai Ming Liang, and when he inserts moments of beauty and poetic landscapes, he does it with a scintillating coldness and an unreal sparkle that brings to mind ideas of commodification of the East by its own pop culture and by the West’s pop culture.\n\nThe most evoking image is probably the one in which the protagonist swims in the swimming pool, in a natural paradise with inverted polarity, where the sky and the swimming pool mesh together like two amniotic fluids, and the nature fragments in rivers of cold light blue and green, like a pre-code vaporwave artwork.\n\nSome critic, probably in a slightly overdramatic way, described “Blackhat” as the first film of the digital age, joining the group of people supporting the film in the midst of its critical and economic meltdown in American and European theatres.\n\nThe film was a failure, but it is one of the very best films produced by Hollywood and the American film industry in the last five years, and its failure has to be connected not to a lack of quality, but to the presence and the implementation of avant-garde topics and cinematic techniques.\n\nThis is especially related to the use of digital cinematography and camerawork, as well as the overarching thematic concerns of the film, with the digitalization of society, the relationship of the body with capitalism and with the digital world, which is its own abstraction, in a way that was challenging enough that it puzzled the audience.\n\nUsing the word “masterpiece” to describe “Blackhat” would not be out of place, and it is certainly a cult film for a specific fringe of the film universe. The film is a cyberpunk story with influxes from Pynchon, Gibson, and other greats.\n\nMichael Mann uses saturation to camouflage digital shots of surveillance cameras and make them look like something else, and invades the screen with anti-naturalistic tones of blue that give the idea of the disappearance of the body, of a melding between the software and the physical reality, a human that is turning into fluid code.\n\nThis idea of fluidity is clearly at the center of the film, as it is at the center of speculative thought in the last 20 years of sociology and philosophy, from Baudrillard, to Bauman, to Pynchon, to Nick Land.\n\nThe phosphorescent deep blue of the film does not degenerate into “Tron: Legacy” territory, because Mann uses handheld cameras and other techniques in a way that emphasizes the heaviness, the fatigue, and in a way the tiredness of the body in the digital era, a body that feels like it’s collapsing, evanescent.\n\nMann dives into a river of data with the camera in the very first moments of the film, and emerges from it with a physical disaster that poisons the physical world. The digital is not isolated and uplifting, as it was in films like “Tron: Legacy” or other late century films, and it is not demonic and alienating like it was in the sci-fi of the 60s.\n\nThe digital aesthetic and the visual sensibility of “Blackhat” travels on the thin line between reality and representation, between a body and the cluster of data that implies, deconstructs, and reconstructs the body. It is a crime film that is shot like a ghost story, a cyber-thriller that is also an on the digital image and its contradictions, a ghost story about the ghosts of capitalism and the ghosts of technology, about abstraction and concreteness.\n\nCinematically, it is a film in which the camera and the image enter a realm of post-truth, where it represents reality, and is at the same time the undoing of that same reality, as it films that moment of material collapse when something becomes something else, and it captures the transformative nature of the digital. “Blackhat” is a great film.\n\nHarmony Korine was a digital hurricane unleashed on American cinema. Opinions are pretty much divided on him; he has really strong admirers (Herzog, above all) and many haters.\n\nPost-cinema and digital cinema are all intellectual superstructures that probably don’t describe the cinema of Korine effectively; it is a mixture of Herzog’s brutal dreaminess and the Dogma’s digital honesty, with a touch of psychotic Americana and nods to postmodernism and pop culture.\n\n“Gummo” is visually imposing because it avoids the idea of the clean digital image, the image that is sensual, immobile, sparkling, advertising, and brings the digital back to its original grainy palette. The power of the digital is to somehow bring an element of found footage, of randomness to the cinematic image."

"Advertisement\nThe Newspaper for the Future of Miami\nConnect with us:\nFront Page » Business & Finance » Blumberg Grain marshals resources in Algeria deal\n\nWritten by Marilyn Bowden on May 2, 2017\nAdvertisement",

"Miami-based Blumberg Grain’s mega-project to build state-of-the-art grain storage facilities across Algeria – estimated by David Blumberg, the company’s CEO for the Middle East & Africa, to save the country some $200 million in post-harvest losses – seems stymied by internal politics.\nPhilip Blumberg, founder & chair of holding company Blumberg Partners, says he is confident growing support in Washington, DC, may provide the motivation to clear the necessary hurdles.\nIn March 2016, he says, he met with Algerian Prime Minister Abdelmalek Sellal, who had heard about Blumberg Grain’s other projects in the region, including a network of 100 storage facilities in Egypt monitored and controlled by a single command control & logistics center in Cairo.\nPrime Minister Sellal was eager to implement a similar system in Algeria. With the country’s president also on board, Philip Blumberg says, a contract was drawn up for the first phase of a project that would “remake Algeria’s failing grain storage system in two phases – some 200 sites for the storage of over 1 million metric tons of wheat.”\nThirteen months later, despite continued assurances from Prime Minister Sellal, the contract remains unsigned.\nBlumberg Grain works primarily with emerging market governments to develop networks of food storage infrastructure that reduce post-harvest losses from more than 50% to less than 5%, says David Blumberg, often doubling the nationwide output of locally harvested crops.\n“We have support in Algeria at a number of different levels,” he says, “including the president, the prime minister and the minister of industry. Farmers are absolutely demanding this because they’re looking at a potential bumper crop this year – but that could dissipate because there’s nowhere to put it.”\nA recent article in Le Courrier d’Algérie – a daily newspaper published in the capital city of Algiers – cites the potential loss of much of the promising 2017-18 harvest to rainfall, rodents and birds due to “antiquated means of storage” such as open-air plots and old, unsuitable hangars before making an impassioned plea for “a modern storage infrastructure with international standards.”\nThe impasse, says Philip Blumberg, appears to stem from a tendency of bureaucrats in the region to thwart the will of elected officials, perhaps rooted in an anti-American bias dating from Algeria’s alliances with the former USSR.\nAt the Algerian government’s insistence, he says, Blumberg Grain has gone so far as to provide them with the proprietary design and engineering drawings for its systems, “so denying these projects would be very problematic to us and our suppliers. It’s possible that the Algerians will try to do the project themselves or provide our designs to Chinese or Russian entities to implement.”\n“We are marshaling all our resources to achieve a resolution in Algeria,” says David Blumberg, who has so far made 44 trips totaling 130 days to Algiers. “But it’s nearing a point of our abandoning the project.”\nThose resources include support from the highest levels of the US government.\n“Several senators and congressional representatives are presently intervening with the Algerian ambassador,” David Blumberg says, “to help resolve this issue before the Algerians face a more public and damaging conflict with Congress, President Trump and the media.”\n“This would be Algeria’s third major lawsuit from a US company,” says Philip Blumberg. “I’m finding that people in Congress are running out of patience with these lawsuits, and they are behind us.”\nAmong many who have sent letters to the Algerian ambassador supporting the project are Rep. Debbie Wasserman-Schultz of Florida, immediate past chair of the Democratic National Committee; Rep. Ileana Ross-Lehtinen, a Miami Republican who just announced her upcoming retirement from Congress, and Jeb Hensarling, a Texas Republican who chairs the House Financial Services Committee.\nAdding their voices to these appeals are several suppliers who work with Blumberg Grain on large international projects, stating that they have already invested significant time and resources on the Algerian project since it was sole-sourced to Blumberg Grain more than a year ago.\nPresident Trump is watching the issue with interest, Philip Blumberg says, since it would involve the creation of 2,400 jobs in the heartland – “Trump country, where he has promised more jobs as part of his Hire American Buy American program.\n“We certainly don’t think this will get to a lawsuit,” he says, “as we know the prime minister and other leaders are strongly advocating for this project. We feel confident that the prime minister and president will prevail and make Algeria food-secure.”"

"Il Nomine Patris have finally wrapped things up in the studio for their second full-length album Unmasking the Color of Evil.\n\nThe symphonic prog-metal band took to social media to announce that the 11-track record is complete. The 'Vultures' act worked on the album with Kyle Cayton at Tower of Doom in Quezon City.\n\n\"The feeling is surreal,\" bassist Ron Jaworski tells Bandwagon. \"I can't believe it's finally done! After years of hard work, struggles, lineup changes, countless revisions, and many other challenges, we are finally done. The new songs are very much consistent with our signature sound, except that there's so much more. More speed, more hard hitting riffs, more heartfelt melodies, more powerful messages, and more stamina required! We are definitely excited to unveil this album.\"\n\nWhile in the studio, Il Nomine Patris actively shared behind the scenes footage during their recording sessions. For more, visit the band's official Facebook page.\n\nWatch the guitar playthrough of 'Beheading I: Temptation' below."

"Some of the world’s greatest inventions were an accident.",
null,
"Like the Post-It Note, everyday plastic, tire rubber, and even the beloved chocolate chip cookie, the thin client computer was never meant to do what it does today or will tomorrow.\n\n“The story of thin clients is the unlikely invention of an industry,” says Jeff McNaught, executive director of marketing and chief strategy officer at Dell Wyse and co-inventor of the machine.\n\nIt begins by looking back to the mid 90s, when an estimated 31 percent of all American homes had at least one PC, and industry analysts expected growth in the home PC market to expand between 30 and 40 percent.\n\n“There is no way PC makers like Packard Bell, IBM, Apple, Compaq, Dell, Gateway, AT&T, Digital Equipment Corp. or Hewlett-Packard can grow at 30 or 40 percent when they all have similar overhead costs for similar products-not with prices dropping as fast as they are,” Philippe de Marcillac, director and principal analyst of personal computers worldwide for Dataquest Inc at the time, told the Chicago Tribune.\n\nMcNaught was at Wyse and recalls that “rather than fight for scraps, Wyse senior management asked me, Curt Schwebke, and a couple of engineers to ‘go figure out what we’ll do next.’”\n\nThat same year, McNaught and company tinkered with several prototypes.\n\n“We wanted to make terminals cool again,” he explains. “But that could never happen with the text-based nature of traditional terminals. So we came up with a lightweight, graphics and mouse-driven device called the Winterm 2000.”\n\nWinterm won “best in show” at the 1995 Computer Dealers’ Exhibition in Las Vegas, and was later awarded the thin client patent.\n\nAnd, although thin clients never went mainstream, with individual consumers, they’ve enjoyed sustained interest over the years from enterprise, finance, government, and education customers, McNaught says, due to their security, cost and maintenance benefits.\n\nSo what’s next for thin clients?",
null,
"They’ve expanded recently to further blur the lines of what a company issue computer can look and work like. After Dell acquired Wyse in 2012, we setup “cloud-client” laboratories around the world to help our enterprise customers understand the three different types of thin clients we sell today—thin, zero, and cloud—as well as which middleware, end-user interfaces and back-ends work best for any given use case.\n\n“The fundamental architecture of thin clients is being used in all end-points in which PCs aren’t ideal,” says McNaught.\n\nWhile thin clients continue to expand, they’re also getting smaller. In January, Dell launched Cloud Connect, a “micro client” that offers accessibility, affordability and the ability to transform into any device a worker needs it to be.\n\nMore than that, though, McNaught believes the micro client will largely power the internet of things and the increasing number of screens we encounter every day.\n\n“In the future, screens will be everywhere, just like in the movies,” he predicts, citing Blade Runner, Minority Report, and Space Marines as influences. “They’ll be in our cars, homes, and wherever we look for information and media.”\n\nMcNaught predicts “they’ll be powered by thin devices such as Cloud Connect. They’ll be powered by low cost, energy efficient, and wireless secured devices that we used to call ‘dumb terminals,’ only this time, they’ll truly help us create order from chaos.”\n\nNot a bad prognoses for such an unanticipated invention.\n\nDo you agree with this outlook? Share your thoughts on the topic below and watch for a series of articles coming from McNaught here on Direct2Dell."

"Mobile search advertising is experiencing faster growth in Australia than most people realise, and now represents almost 30 per cent of the total paid search links being served, a new report claims.\n\nIn a reflection of the strong focus marketers are putting on mobile marketing, new research from Telsyte predicted Australian mobile paid search spending will reach $430 million this year, or about a quarter of the estimated $1.74bn paid search market.\n\nThe report complements a new Asia-Pacific mobile marketing report compiled by the Mobile Marketing Association, which found 90 per cent of marketers expect their mobile marketing budgets to rise sharply in the next year, with app development and mobile display ads their preferred channels.\n\nA recent Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB) online advertising report also found mobile is outpacing other categories in terms of growth and increased 190 per cent year-on-year to 30 June. Tablet-based advertising was also found to be exceeding smartphone spending and represented 58 per cent of total spend.\n\nDuring Q2, Telstra found nearly 30 per cent of paid search links were served onto mobile devices, and predicted this rising to 33.3 per cent by Q4. The analyst group also said the mobile paid search market is growing at a 17 per cent compound quarterly rate, with tablet expected to generate $240m, or 56 per cent, of the total market in 2013.\n\n“Mobile device search advertising is growing faster than most observers realise,” Telsyte research director, Foad Fadaghi, said. “Notwithstanding the difficulties in measuring mobile search, many advertisers are serving their search ads on tablets and smartphones by default following changes to Google’s targeting options.”\n\nTelsyte also forecast mobile will represent more than half of the Australian paid search market by 2017 and become the largest digital advertising product segment nationally by 2018.\n\nAmong the main usage scenarios for mobile paid search advertising in Australia are simple transactional offers, local search, in-store research and purchase, as an important path to purchase, and for products and services typically sold via telesales or call centres. The analyst group claims there are 14 million smartphone and 7 million tablet users in Australia.\n\nTelsyte also claimed the ROI from mobile search advertising has not yet reached the level of desktop search overall, although some categories such as local, have shown a higher ROI.\n\n“The ROI for mobile search needs to be expanded beyond just measuring online sales but other metrics, such as offline sales and other factors that are important in the path to purchase,” the report stated.\n\n“Mobile search marketers need to accept that conversion metrics are different on smartphones and tablets. While tablet metrics are closer to desktop search, there are still differences particularly around user engagement.”"

"The spot kicks off the inaugural ad support program, one year in the making",
null,
"A year in the making following the devastating effects of the pandemic on local businesses nationwide, Los Angeles-based RE:Store--a brand-new platform created to connect Black-owned companies with free advertising support--has launched its first commercial campaign produced through the program. The initiative was co-launched by Steve Gandolfi, founder of Cut+Run, and features top-tier directorial and editorial talent.\n\nIn the midst of the resurging Black Lives Matter movement in Summer 2020, and spurred by a close friend, Gandolfi sought direct action he might take to actively make change in the advertising industry beyond posting the much-criticized black square on Instagram. Between the local unrest and the sight of small businesses forced to close due the pandemic, the experience sparked the original idea for RE:Store.\n\nA cornerstone of her Compton community, owner Amber Osborne launched her mart stocked with Black brands in February 2020, shortly before the pandemic blindsided small businesses worldwide. She had won $50K from Snoop Dogg's “Joker's Wild” show in January 2019, and knew she would help her community with a beauty business. Development deals and teams fell apart, but she persisted and grew to own a mini mart side-by-side with her beauty supply store. Having the mini mart came just in the nick of time in February 2020, as it marked her business “essential” under the government and allowed it to stay open during the course of the pandemic. Throughout the pandemic and during the summer’s Black Lives Matter protests, she and her family anticipated the needs of the community and continued to provide services and assistance. Other participating businesses in the program include Pineapple Express, JackFruits Cafe, Sunbelly Foods, The Reverse Orangutan, and many more.\n\nRE:Store aims to “restore” faith in a small business marketplace wrought with unforeseen challenges. The RE:Store team, led by Executive Director of Co.Labs Matt Stefan, developed a free platform connecting local creatives, producers, and content creators with Black-owned businesses that need help. Gandolfi and RE:Store facilitated connections between networks of videographers, directors and businesses. Cut+Run lent their support to several of the works, and creators donated their time, equipment, and resources to produce short-form video ads at no cost. Participating stores received support for launching their campaigns and promoting their business online.\n\nOnce the ads are completed, Snap Inc. has partnered with RE:Store to provide participating owners who qualify with credits to advertise on their platform. To be part of the program, a small business must be a registered business or non-profit organization; have a commercial location; have fewer than ten employees or fewer than 25 employees for restaurants and bars and cannot be part of a corporate franchise. Snap Inc. advertisements executed thus far have translated to 3500 web visitors and upwards of 250,000 views for each business.",

"Our rider came close to his first victory of the season at the end of a brutal 154km stage held around Paris’ suburbs.\n\nLying to the southwest of France’s capital, the small town of Plaisir hosted the start of the 78th Paris-Nice, but it wasn’t the most pleasant of welcomes, the soaking rain, cold temperatures and strong crosswinds changing the nature of the race, which was heavily impacted by the conditions. The lurking danger of echelons prompted several teams, including ours, to hit the front of the peloton early and chew into the escapees’ advantage, and at the same time, split the bunch into smaller groups.\n\nThe race came back together ahead of Côte de Neauphle-le-Chateau, which gave the riders a preview of what was to come in the business end of the stage, but it was only a short lull in proceedings, the bunch exploding again as soon as they entered the open roads of the Yvelines department. The peloton was blown to pieces with 50 kilometers to go and several groups got scattered all over the road. Julian Alaphilippe, Kasper Asgreen and Zdenek Stybar were among the 16 men to book a place in the front, and it was from there, on the short rise to the day’s first intermediate sprint, that Alaphilippe got out of the saddle and took Tiesj Benoot (Team Sunweb) with him for company, in an instant opening a decent gap over the chasers.\n\nIt was a tall order for the duo to stay at the front on the undulating terrain, but the two continued to soldier on nevertheless, braving the rain and extending their advantage to 45 seconds, before the peloton got organised behind and turned on the gas. On the partly cobbled climb of Côte de Neauphle-le-Chateau, the margin of the leaders began to tumble and despite several accelerations of Julian, they got caught by two chasers some three kilometers from the finish.",

"Struggling with the cold, Alaphilippe still had enough left to shut down two dangerous late attacks and make sure it will be a four-up sprint in Plaisir, but this admirable effort finally took its toll in the last 500 meters and he couldn’t contest the victory, which went to Maximilian Schachmann (Bora-hansgrohe). Fourth on the line after this tough and energy-sapping stage 1 and with six bonus seconds in the bag as a result of the two intermediate sprints which he won, the 27-year-old Deceuninck – Quick-Step rider saw the glass half full at the end.\n\n“My attack wasn’t planned, our only plan at the beginning of the day was to remain focus and at the front, as we knew the crosswinds could wreak havoc, which they did. When the peloton exploded, I found myself in a very good position together with Kasper and Zdenek, and then I just went for the bonus seconds and once I opened a gap, I kept going. I worked well together with Tiesj, it’s a pity he stopped collaborating on the last climb and the others joined us. For my part, I wanted to give my best until the finish, but it was really difficult with the cold. Still, I am not disappointed, but quite happy, because this stage showed that I have good legs and I’m gradually improving my form”, said Alaphilippe, who lies just seven seconds off the overall lead.",

"A mushroom shaped like a horse’s hoof grows on birch trees in parts of Europe and the U.S. If you strip off its outer layer, you get amadou, spongy stuff that’s great for igniting fires. It’s not used much anymore, but it was a crucial resource for some of our ancestors. As for the word “amadou,” it’s derived from an old French term that means “tinder, kindling, spunk.” The same word was formerly used to refer to a person who is quick to light up or to something that stimulates liveliness. In accordance with astrological omens, I’m making “Amadou” your nickname for the next four weeks.\n\n\nTAURUS (April 20-May 20): “Human beings are not born once and for all on the day their mothers give birth to them,” wrote novelist Gabriel Garcia Marquez. “Life obliges them over and over to give birth to themselves.” Here’s what I’ll add to that: As you mature, you do your best to give birth to ever-new selves that are in alignment with the idealistic visions you have of the person you want to become. Unfortunately, most of us aren’t skilled at that task in adolescence and early adulthood. The selves we create may be inadequate or delusory or distorted. Fortunately, as we learn from our mistakes, we eventually learn to give birth to selves that are strong and righteous. The only problem is that the old false selves we generated along the way may persist as ghostly echoes in our psyche. And we have a sacred duty to banish those ghostly echoes. I tell you this, Taurus, because the coming months will be en excellent time to do that banishing. Ramp up your efforts NOW!\n\nGEMINI (May 21-June 20): “When spring came, there were no problems except where to be happiest,” wrote Ernest Hemingway in his memoir. He quickly amended that statement, though, mourning, “The only thing that could spoil a day was people.” Then he ventured even further, testifying, “People were always the limiters of happiness except for the very few that were as good as spring itself.” I bring these thoughts to your attention so as to prepare you for some good news: In the next three weeks, I suspect you will far exceed your quota for encounters with people who are not “limiters of happiness”—who are as good as spring itself.\n\nCANCER (June 21-July 22): It’s time to prove that Cancerians have more to offer than nurturing, empathizing, softening the edges, feeling deeply, getting comfortable, and being creative. Not that there’s anything wrong with those talents. On the contrary! They’re beautiful and necessary. It’s just that for now you need to avoid being pigeonholed as a gentle, sensitive soul. To gather the goodies that are potentially available to you, you’ll have to be more forthright and aggressive than usual. Is it possible for you to wield a commanding presence? Can you add a big dose of willfullness and a pinch of ferocity to your self-presentation? Yes and yes!\n\nLEO (July 23-Aug. 22): General Motors manufactured a car called the Pontiac Aztek from 2001 to 2005. It wasn’t commercially successful. One critic said it looked like “an angry kitchen appliance,” and many others agreed it was exceptionally unstylish. But later the Aztek had an odd revival because of the popularity of the TV show Breaking Bad. The show’s protagonist, Walter White, owned one, and that motivated some of his fans to emulate his taste in cars. In accordance with astrological omens, Leo, I suspect that something of yours may also enjoy a second life sometime soon. An offering that didn’t get much appreciation the first time around may undergo a resurgence. Help it do so.\n\nVIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): “Of all the female sins, hunger is the least forgivable,” laments feminist author Laurie Penny. She’s referring to the hunger “for anything, for food, sex, power, education, even love.” She continues: “If we have desires, we are expected to conceal them, to control them, to keep ourselves in check. We are supposed to be objects of desire, not desiring beings.” I’ve quoted her because I suspect it’s crucial for you to not suppress or hide your longings in the coming weeks. That’s triply true if you’re a woman, but also important if you’re a man or some other gender. You have a potential to heal deeply if you get very clear about what you hunger for and then express it frankly.\n\nLIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Only one of Nana Mouskouris’s vocal cords works, but over the course of an almost 60-year career, the Libran singer has sold over 30 million records in twelve different languages. Many critics speculate that her apparent disadvantage is key to her unique style. She’s a coloratura mezzo, a rare category of chanteuse who sings ornate passages with exceptional agility and purity. In the coming weeks, I suspect that you will be like Mouskouris in your ability to capitalize on a seeming lack or deprivation.\n\nSCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Your tribe is symbolized by three animals: the scorpion, the eagle, and the mythological phoenix. Some astrologers say that the scorpion is the ruling creature of “unevolved” or immature Scorpios, whereas the eagle and phoenix are associated with those of your tribe who express the riper, more enlightened qualities of your sign. But I want to put in a plug for the scorpion as being worthy of all Scorpios. It is a hardy critter that rivals the cockroach in its ability to survive—and even thrive in—less than ideal conditions. For the next two weeks, I propose we make it your spirit creature.\n\nCAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Sommeliers are people trained to understand the nuances of wine. By sampling a few sips, the best sommeliers can discern facts about the type of grapes that were used to make the wine and where on earth they were grown. I think that in the coming weeks you Capricorns should launch an effort to reach a comparable level of sensitivity and perceptivity about any subject you care about. It’s a favorable time to become even more masterful about your specialties; to dive deeper into the areas of knowledge that captivate your imagination.\n\nAQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Every language is a work-in-progress. New words constantly insinuate themselves into common usage, while others fade away. If you traveled back in time to 1719 while remaining in your current location, you’d have trouble communicating with people of that era. And today linguistic evolution is even more rapid than in previous ages. The Oxford English Dictionary adds more than a thousand new words annually. In recognition of the extra verbal skill and inventiveness you now posses, Aquarius, I invite you to coin a slew of your own fresh terms. To get you warmed up, try this utterance I coined: verizzimo! It’s an exclamation that means “thrillingly beautiful and true.”\n\nPISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): One of history’s most audacious con men was George C. Parker, a Pisces. He made his living selling property that did not legally belong to him, including the Brooklyn Bridge, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the Statue of Liberty. I suspect you could summon his level of salesmanship and persuasive skills in the coming weeks. But I hope you will use your nearly magical powers to make deals and perform feats that have maximum integrity. It’s OK to be a teensy bit greedy, though."

"She bases the story in this novel on her own upbringing and it is evident from the opening pages. It is of utmost importance that we continue to explore deeper into the African culture and recognise patriarchy as a concept that hinders growth and does not assist in keeping the culture alive. Her education only serves to make her more resentful of her entrapment.\n\nTambu is offered a scholarship to study at the esteemed mission school. Yet, her father is the laziest member in his family, and her mother having had no education and married since age fifteen have no future ahead of them.\n\nWhy is Babamukuru unhappy to see them at the homestead. The presentation of the European people focuses around the idea of unappealing physical features. Each of these women makes efforts to question the traditions of Nervous conditions passage dorris.\n\nDangarembga has paved the way so that authors like Adichie have a platform today, and for that I feel privileged to have had read her work. Needing an African classic for my classics bingo this year, I decided upon Dangarembga's debut autobiographical novel, Nervous Conditions, which is inf Last year I discovered the writing of Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie.\n\nSet in the 60s, village life and class is deftly portrayed. I believe that traditional customs should undergo change and allow for flexibility, suiting the changing social, economic and political circumstances of the world today.\n\nThe different elements of patriarchy are so deeply-rooted and intertwined that it is almost impossible to isolate one single element as the root cause. Once at the mission school, she is impeded by the societal bias against women and the sacrifices she must make in order to please her uncle and fulfill his expectations of her.\n\nInDangarembga returned to England to study medicine. Why does Maiguru fight with and then leave Babamukuru for 5 days. What has impelled Tambu to defy her uncle on this matter of the wedding.",

Lauren Brewis Due date: Why is Tambu offered a place and a scholarship at the exclusive Sacred Heart convent school.\n\nDuring the school vacation, Tambu and her relatives head back to the homestead. Like many African authors, Ngugi portrays males as the only ones capable of reacting physically and psychologically to colonialism, while female reactions to colonialism are often attributed to madness or other biological conditions.\n\nEven though Babamukuru and Maiguru seem to be more westernised than other characters in the novel, it goes to prove that the essence of traditional ways are deep rooted in both of them, firstly for him enforcing these ways and secondly for her, even as an educated women, for allowing it.\n\nMaiguru's education is viewed as an oddity. When she discovered that her brother was stealing food from her garden patch, she attempted to beat him up while the two were attending Sunday school.\n\nShe views the cultural differences in social status and gender equality from a vantage point. Hopefully, they would marry well and bring in a good bride price which would most likely go towards their brothers' education.\n\nAs a result, Tambu moves into her uncle and aunt's care, away from the homestead and poverty, and into a luxurious life.

"Nyasha is a second major character in the novel, another one of the four women Tambu loved whose story the novel is intended to tell. Tambu steps into the role of future provider, yet she is saddled with the prejudices and limitations that shackled most African girls of her generation.\n\nMaiguru did not want them participating in the dancing and other festive activities. Why does Babamukuru decide Tambu should go to the mission school after Nhamo dies. Patriarchy was not imported by colonisers; there is too much historical evidence of patriarchy and male dominance in pre-colonial Africa to even suggest such a claim.\n\nAs Nyasha loses weight, she gradually loses sense of who she is and where she belongs. The nervous condition In the novel Nervous Conditions by Tsitsi Dangarembga, the character Nyasha aptly describes the quandary that is postcolonial identity. \"It would be a marvelous opportunity, she said sarcastically, to forget.\n\nIn addiion to Nervous Conditions, she has written a play entitled She No Longer Weeps. Today, in addition to writing, Dangarembga works as a script writer, consultant and film director.\n\nNervous Conditions (Nervous Conditions #1) A modern classic in the African literary canon and voted in the Top Ten Africa's Best Books of the 20th Century, this novel brings to the politics of decolonization theory the energy of women's rights. An extraordinarily well-crafted work, this book is a work of vision/5.\n\n26 tsitsi dangarembga's nervous conditions feminist analysis of women's situation, is to be at once politically naive and theoretically unaware', 17 as Moi declares.",

"Many people find a lot in common between New York and Glasgow – did you find that?\n\nWell, Glasgow is much more familiar to me than New York. I was born close to Glasgow, and have always had a family association with the city. My wife is Glaswegian and I spent a good portion of my twenties living there. Both cities have great music scenes and great architecture. But New York feels a much more epic and unknown creation somehow – the ultimate city, a bit unfathomable, exciting, romantic, dangerous. It’s somewhere that you will never really get to know. But I was relieved to finally leave the city. I’d been living in cities out of convenience, and I got to a stage when I wanted to live somewhere I wanted to be all the time, and for me that was the Western Isles. It wasn’t a hard move to make. They have been part of my life since I was a boy.\n\nYou’ve written a lot about walking around the Highlands and Islands. Of all the beautiful places you’ve visited, could you tell us what are the most beautiful and unique?\n\nI’ve travelled widely, but I don’t think that there is anywhere more beautiful and unique than the Western Highlands and Islands of Scotland, particularly on a fine day. For solitude and the best beaches I would head to the Isle of Coll – you get literally miles of golden sand to yourself. For bleak majesty, the Assynt region of Sutherland is hard to better. Be sure and pack your collected poems of Norman MacCaig if you head there.\n\nDo you prefer long meditative walks in Scotland or more dramatic, eventful ones?\n\nFor bleak majesty, the Assynt region of Sutherland is hard to better. Be sure and pack your collected poems of Norman MacCaig if you head there\n\nI am a fan of the familiar and meditative walk, the opposite of a thrill-seeker, much to the amusement of the people I used to regularly walk with. I don’t walk for the challenge; I walk for the time it allows me to think, and to be outside. There was something Ianthe Brautigan said about her dad, the writer Richard: “Instead of going to an office and working, he went for long walks inside himself using his body as a map.” I think that is true of most full-time creatives, and I think about that quote a lot when I’m hiking.\n\nThere is some really inventive cooking going on in the Highlands and Islands, isn’t there?\n\nIt’s getting much better for food and accommodation, and there is a move away from the tartan carpets and tartan chicken – that’s chicken stuffed with haggis by the way – and damp B&Bs of the past.\n\nOver here we have Chef Pamela Brunton – until recently she was cooking at the Argyll hotel in Iona (which remains excellent), but she’s about to open up her own place on Mull, The Painting School in Carsaig. She’s done stints at Noma and Fäviken and there’s that similar ethos to her cooking. It’s fantastic stuff.\n\nUp in Tobermory I always go to Café Fish. It’s in a great location in the old ferry terminal overlooking the bay. And the food comes right off their boat onto the stove. There are no frills, but it’s all the better for it. Further afield I would recommend the Old Bridge Inn in Aviemore and the Applecross Inn, in Wester Ross. They are the two best pubs in Scotland and both serve wonderful food.\n\nLandscapes are so unique, country to country. Where inspires you outside of Scotland?\n\nThere is something about France that I love. I lived in the Auvergne region from age six until eight, so this feeling possibly comes from some deeply embedded nostalgia. The French aesthetic and climate are very appealing, as are the corner bistros, the language, the art and literature, the bread, cheese, wine, the pace of life – particularly in the country – and the variety of landscape.\n\nThe last time I visited was in 2010, to stay with my cousin who lives on a farm in the Loire Valley with her French husband. They make amazing organic goat’s cheese. We sat outside at night. It was warm and we drank wine from a local vineyard – the sort of stuff that you just can’t do in Scotland.\n\nYour Tweets are often about pub lunches, when touring. What makes the perfect British pub for you?\n\nEngland does pubs well – country pubs where the food and the beer is local and of the highest standard. Scotland has a lot to learn in this respect. On tour we have a well-thumbed Good Pub Guide and that’s where we pick out spots. I like unpretentious old pubs with a bit of history that have been left alone inside – wood and stone and a real fire, a choice of local ales and a thoughtful menu. The Blue Lion in East Witton, Yorkshire, and The Lamb in Hindon, Wiltshire are two recent favourites.\n\nYour image was once very rock n’ roll and urban, and now it’s very folk and rural – one can’t imagine you by an infinity pool in the Indian Ocean drinking margaritas. But do you, at times, want luxury when you travel?\n\nOther than going on tour I rarely travel outside Scotland, and that has been the case for the last 16 years. “The more you travel the less you notice,” as the saying goes, which is certainly true of touring. I try and keep my eyes open, and there are places that I’d like to go back to – Iceland being one, Northern California another – but I would rather be at home surrounded by familiar things and scenery. Besides, I hate to fly. I am also not interested in places being fancy, because more often than not it means that they are full of insufferable posh idiots.\n\nYou wrote a song – “Waverley Steps” – about the long, steep and often perilously windy staircase at the main railway station in Edinburgh. As the locals are very aware, there’s still no tram in the city, but there’s an escalator on the Waverley Steps now. Are you in favour?\n\nWell, there are still steps on one side of the escalator. I’d still rather take them.\n\nroddywoomble.com\nListen to Keep is out now",

"Asia Pacific held dominant position in the global air traffic control market in 2020, accounting for 33.81% share in terms of volume, followed by Rest of World and Europe, respectively owing to the modernization of airport infrastructure has led to an increase in the procurement of air traffic control equipment to streamline aircraft operations.",
null,
"Growing urbanization and rising disposable have increased the number of passengers traveling via aircraft. According to the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), in 2018, around 4.3 billion people traveled in aircraft, increasing from 2.9 billion in 2012. According to the same source, the air transport capacity offered by airlines grew by 4% in 2012 across the world. Such development is expected to contribute positively to air traffic control systems. Furthermore, according to Coherent Market Insights’ analysis, Asia Pacific reported a growth of 5.5% in international airlines and 8.8% in domestic airlines. Europe reported growth in air traffic by 5.6% in international airlines and declines to 0.7% in domestic airlines. Therefore, these factors are expected to drive growth of the global air traffic control market during the forecast period.\n\nSince the number of passengers traveling by air is increasing, the authorities are required to expand the existing infrastructure of airport, in order to manage and handle passenger safety. Growing trade relations among countries and numerous student exchange programs conducted by universities across the world has significantly contributed to the rise in air travelers. According to the Canadian Bureau for International Education, the number of international student enrolment in Canada has increased from 136,000 in 2001 to more than 265,000 in 2012 registering an increase of 94%. Furthermore, passenger comfort and safety management have become a primary concern for airport authorities, which in turn, is increasing investment in air traffic control equipment. Hence, these factors are expected to propel the global air traffic control market in the near future.\n\nAccording to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), commercial airline passenger traffic would increase manifold by 2025. Sometimes due to uncertain position of airplanes, most of the airliners are forced to take stepped landing where airplane comes down to a given altitude and then comes down again when being instructed by tower. Moreover, such satellite-based air traffic control systems will help to cut down the emissions and cost of fuel due to continuous tracking.\n\nThere has been increased demand for unmanned air traffic management recently. UTM is an air traffic management ecosystem, which in underdevelopment, for autonomously controlled operations of unmanned aerial system. It is being developed by FAA, NASA, and other federal agencies. It is expected to reduce human errors and provide efficient instructions for pilots.\n\nContracts and agreements among market players is a major trend\n\nMajor companies in the market are focused on contracts and agreements, in order to enhance the market presence. For instance, in January 2012, NavAero entered into agreement with Air France for supplying t BagC22 for airline fleets of A330, 320, 340, and 747 aircraft. In October 2011, Malaysia airlines signed agreement with NavAero for deployment of t Bag™C22 Class 2 EFB and display systems. Moreover, in April 2014, Indra received a contract to modernize five air traffic control centers of Chilean Civil Aviation Department.",

"Cost of air traffic control systems is significantly high. ATC systems are provided by Air Navigation Service Providers (ANSP) and are sometimes paid by air travelers as charges. Furthermore, up gradation of these technologies involves heavy charges, owing to incorporation of different technologies in ATC. Besides, it takes a significant amount of time to identify future requirements of ATC systems and installing facilities that fulfill those requirements. Hence, these factors are expected to restrain growth of the global air traffic control market during the forecast period.\n\nThere are several strict regulatory norms that need to be complied with by ATC systems. Although there are standard norms across the globe, certain countries and their respective authorities may impose additional regulations, which makes it challenging. Thus, these factors are expected to hinder the market growth in the near future.\n\nAir traffic control is an essential service offered by ground-based air traffic managers who direct aircraft in controlled airspace and over the air surface, and also offer advisory services for other aircraft in unassigned airspace. Air traffic control requires knowledge of all aspects of air navigation and their use and knowledge of airport operations, but may also include hazard communication, traffic analysis, weather observations and forecast, media communications and weather applications.\n\nInitiative to boost the aviation sector post Covid-19 is expected to propel growth of the global air traffic control market over the forecast period. For instance, in September 2020, Airports Council International (ACI) laid out a roadmap for the recovery of the airport sector and wider aviation ecosystem from the devastating impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.\n\nMoreover, recovery in domestic passenger traffic is also expected to aid in growth of the market. For instance, according to ICRA Limited, an independent and professional investment information and credit rating agency, the Indian aviation industry witnessed a recovery in domestic passenger traffic in August 2020, with a sequential growth (over July 2020) of 25 per cent to 26 lakh passengers.\n\nWhat factors are influencing the adoption of air traffic control?\n\nHigh cost of air traffic control systems and presence of stringent regulatory norms are factors hindering growth of the market.\n\nCommercial aircrafts held dominant position in the market in 2020.\n\nContracts and agreements among market players along with partnership and collaboration activities are gaining traction in the market."

"Back in 2010, Google launched Instant Preview to provide users with a quick way to get a graphic preview of a webpage before you click on the actual link. Now, as first spotted by Alex Chitu from the Google Operating System blog, it looks like Google is thinking about removing this feature and replacing it with a new drop-down menu.\n\nUpdate: a Google spokesperson just responded to our inquiry: “We’re constantly making changes to the layout and features of the search results page.” The wording of this response sure makes it sound as if this will be a permanent change and isn’t just an experiment. Google’s typical answer to these questions starts with “we’re always experimenting with [xyz],” after all.\n\nInstant Preview is probably not a huge hit, given that Google wouldn’t consider removing it if it were a popular feature. It did hide a bit of useful functionality besides the previews, however. Opening these Instant Previews allowed you to also find similar pages and access the Google+ Share feature. In addition, it was also the only way to find Google’s cached version of a given page, too.\n\nAll of these features are still there in this new version, but they are now accessible through a drop-down menu right next to the main link.\n\nIt’s not clear if this is just a test, or if Google is indeed fully removing this feature and replacing it with the new drop-down menu. We have contacted Google about this change and will update this post once we learn more.\n\nHere is what this looks like for TechCrunch (“Similar,” for some reason, only appears for a subset of results):",

"You can buy an electric car. Ideally, we'll soon start seeing the wonderful powers of electricity—and all the clean benefits associated with it—hitting the trucking industry as well. So why not a plane?\n\nAs reported by The New York Times, NASA is officially developing an experimental electric airplane that could help cut operational costs by 40 percent or so compared to a similarly sized, jet-fuel-guzzling aircraft. The plane itself could also be a quieter than a traditional aircraft. But before you start dreaming of all the comforts a Tesla-style plane might bring to flying, know that there are a few key issues that researchers still have to work out.\n\nFirst up, batteries take up a lot of space. So much so, that the X-57 plane NASA is currently developing will require around 800 pounds of batteries or so just to work. Stuffing these in the plane requires NASA to eliminate all seats but the pilot's. And even with all that juice, the plane can allegedly only fly for about one hour or so—and you definitely don't want to be stuck in a holding pattern when the batteries go out.\n\nNASA's initial research would only really benefit smaller aircraft at first: commuter planes or aircraft for general aviation, not huge, sprawling jetliners that run coast-to-coast flights. That's not to say that the technology couldn't get there someday, but don't expect that NASA's work will allow millions to start flying on electric planes over the next few years.\n\n\"With the return of piloted X-planes to NASA's research capabilities – which is a key part of our 10-year-long New Aviation Horizons initiative – the general aviation-sized X-57 will take the first step in opening a new era of aviation,\" said NASA Administrator Charles Bolden, in a statement.\n\nHow to Get to Mars: Q&A With NASA Deputy Administrator Dava Newman\n\nUnlike earlier X-Planes NASA designed, the new all-electric concept will use skinnier wings and 14 motors in total. Two of these motors, driving five-foot-wide propellers, will mainly be used to maintain an average cruising speed of around 175 miles per hour. The others will kick in to assist the plane with takeoffs and landings.\n\n\"NASA's aeronautical innovators hope to validate the idea that distributing electric power across a number of motors integrated with an aircraft in this way will result in a five-time reduction in the energy required for a private plane to cruise at 175 mph,\" reads NASA's description."

"Once again, the San Antonio Spurs are forgotten. Instead of trying to copy from Gregg Popovich and the group of players led by Tim Duncan, Tony Parker, Manu Ginobili and Kawhi Leonard, the rest of the NBA is ignoring its champion and once again gets caught up in a race for max contract free agents, sacrificing a thought process and player development for expensive, instant and questionable achievements.\n\nEvery team gets players in the same way: Drafting them, signing them from free agency, which can take a multitude of forms, or by trading for them. Of the nine key players the Spurs used to win their fifth championship, four were drafted by them (Tim Duncan, Tony Parker, Manu Ginobili, Tiago Splitter) and another arrived via trade on draft night (Kawhi Leonard, the finals MVP).\n\nAnd still, teams don’t have the patience to copy the Spurs. Tim Duncan is a player that comes around once every 10 or 15 years, there’s no argument about that. But the Spurs, even during Duncan’s MVP years, have never been about him dominating in the paint the way Shaquille O’Neal has. The concept might have changed – from a defense that was the best in the league to a team relying on its offense to the perfect mix we saw from them this season, but this was never a team that was about one superstar.",
null,
"The Spurs of the 1990’s, led by David Robinson until 1997, were a one-man team. Robinson was the best center in the league on some days, although was probably inferior to Hakeem Olajuwon, especially when the two faced each other. The Spurs didn’t get anywhere, reaching only one conference final, until Gregg Popovich took over, and the team shifted its balance from just one big man to something completely different. A twin tower approach, and more.\n\nThis offseason, as have been all of those through the last four years (or maybe seven? We’ll get to that a little later), is about trying to put together a team of superstars, of max contracts, or of players worth max deals but might be forced to compromise. Look at the Los Angeles Lakers, with Kobe Bryant and their attempt to bring both Carmelo Anthony and LeBron James. Look at the Houston Rockets, trying to add either Anthony or James to a team that already has James Harden and Dwight Howard. They’re not alone.\n\nMaybe it all started when the Boston Celtics put together Paul Pierce with Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen. That ended with a lot of hate and the team falling apart badly. They underachieved when compared with the Miami Heat – two finals, one title in five seasons together. They actually had an All-Star point guard in Rajon Rondo, but maybe trading Kendrick Perkins was the end of their chances to actually win together. On the other hand, they were one game away from making the finals in 2012.",
null,
"The Spurs never seem to be in the mix for the big free agents, even when they have the cap space. There’s talk of Kevin Love next season going there. That would be an uncharacteristic move but at some point, Ginobili and Duncan are going to retire, while Parker may start declining or actually consider moving on. The team has changed around them radically over the last 12 years, with Popovich eventually finding the right formula to go all the way and come out on top. Even these great things will come to an end at some point, including Popovich’s reign in San Antonio.\n\nThe Spurs were away from the finals for six years, and had seven years between their title in 2007 to the place they are right now, going into the 2014-2015 NBA Season as defending NBA champions. A lot of teams, maybe even all of them, would have broken things up instead of sticking through – realizing what’s right and what’s wrong, and trying to fix on the fly while relying on your foundations.\n\nThe standard of coaching in the NBA isn’t good enough. Patience isn’t there. The creativity in scouting and sometimes putting an emphasis on personality and chemistry with the rest of the squad instead of pure talent just doesn’t seem to spread around. In a copycat league, teams keep trying to follow the wrong trends instead of following the right ones. Flash and money win over brains and methodical approach. It just gives the Spurs another edge as long as they stick to their guns, while the rest of the NBA is caught up in an insane arms race that is about the now, instead of being about the now and the future as well."

"Science fiction movie expanded universes can go one of two ways; they can either create a rich tapestry of interesting stories which greatly add to those already told in the existing films or simply become part of a hot mess which adds nothing of value to the greater narrative. Some fine examples of the former are sections of the Star Wars and Aliens universes. Sadly though, Independence Day hasn’t really fared so well, with the prequel novels for the original film ranging from middling to outright boring. Can Independence Day: Crucible, a prequel novel for blockbuster sequel Independence Day: Resurgence, fare any better?\n\nIndependence Day is known, and adored, for being a big, dumb action romp where a fully functioning brain is about the last thing you need to have a good time. A real victory for style over substance, the 1996 blockbuster paid only the most basic lip service to things like character development or sensible plot lines, while investing heavily in spaceship battles and explosions – and people loved it for it. This begs the question; why would Crucible, the follow up book, abandon this successful formula and focus on the franchise’s weaker aspects?\n\nFor reasons unbeknownst to humanity at large, Independence Day: Crucible is primarily a romance novel. Let that sink in for a moment. The book actually spends most of its time focusing on the love lives of David Levinson and Jake Morrison, Jeff Goldblum and Liam Hemsworth’s respective characters. It seems like a thoroughly bizarre angle for a book based on a franchise about invading aliens to take and it is one which Independence Day fans are unlikely to find interesting in the slightest. It’s hard to say who’s crazy idea writing a romance novel set in the Independence Day universe was, but it seems unlikely that author Greg Keyes was responsible for such a spectacular misjudgment of the fan base, given that he is an experienced writer with plenty of sc-fi and fantasy under his belt, including successful Star Wars and Elder Scrolls adaptations. Whoever made the call certainly has some ‘splainin’ to do.\n\nThat’s not to say that romance as a genre is without merit, but it was never exactly Independence Day‘s strong point. That much is pretty evident in Crucible as the romantic storytelling here is appalling. Between Levinson meandering around, trying to get himself ‘back in the game’ and Jake getting involved in a cringy Dawson’s Creek-esque love triangle with the kids of two of the original film’s key characters, the book makes for a dull reading experience.\n\nCrucible also commits the sin of trying to introduce lots of characters but giving most of them precious little to do. Take Rain Lao (Angelababy’s character) for example; she is introduced in one of the book’s early chapters and only appears a few more times and nothing she does actually links up with anything else in the story. Indeed, her segments are so spaced out that it’s easy to forget that she’s in the book. It feels as if she was thrown in simply because the movie studio demanded that one of Independence Day: Resurgence‘s characters be given some page time. Captain Steve Hiller is also thrown into the mix purely to explain why Will Smith isn’t in the new film. He is used as a means to introduce his son (who plays a key role in Resurgence) before being lazily – *spoiler alert* – killed off off-page. It’s a terrible waste of a character who is recognised as a true American hero.\n\nAbout the only halfway interesting plot strand in Independence Day: Crucible is Dikende Umbutu’s, as he travels back to his African homeland where his father, a notoriously xenophobic leader of a made-up nation, is fiercely guarding alien technology and secrets which might just help humanity win the next war. It would be more interesting, though, if it wasn’t so obviously ‘influenced’ by Marvel’s Wakanda-Black Panther storylines. Seeing as they were referenced heavily in one of this year’s biggest blockbusters, it’s hard to judge the similarities as anything more than lazy plot lifting.\n\nA dull and uninspiring experience from start to finish, Independence Day: Crucible represents everything that is so often wrong with spin-offs from popular movie franchises. It is a hastily cobbled together non-event that lacks excitement and gets the tone completely wrong. About the only good thing Crucible has going for it is that the book itself is quite short and contains lots of white space, so it doesn’t take very long to read, meaning you can convert it into toilet paper soon after acquiring it.",

"Prepare for a whole new way to discover games and more!",

"The Steam Curators program is also getting a revamp with more features like Top 10 lists, embedded videos.\n\nAfter a recent set of interviews with top Youtubers John “TotalBiscuit” Bain and Jim “Jim Sterling” Sterling at their offices, it seems Valve is looking to make a lot of changes in the coming weeks.\n\nThe Steam Direct publishing for indie developers has already been talked about for a while as a way to discourage “fake games” as Valve refers to hastily and lazily developed games to make a quick buck but that’s not all; Valve is also going to overhaul their algorithms to make sure bad games are buried in the depths of hell and only good games get recommended.\n\nUnfortunately, good indie games often get overlooked and this system won’t really help them and Valve thankfully has a solution to that as well. A new program called Steam Explorers that is open to anyone will provide lists of unpopular games for gamers to well, explore. If an Explorer likes a game they flag it and when a game gets multiple flags from explorers it gets recommended to more users. There is also talk of special forums for Explorers to arrange multiplayer sessions discuss games and more.\n\nThe Steam Curators program is also getting a revamp with more features like Top 10 lists, embedded videos. It also provides the ability for publishers to directly provide games to Curators since Valve is discouraging reviews from folks who receive digital codes via emails, to avoid “paid” reviews flooding and misguiding gamers. There might even be a feature to incentivise or monetise Curators on Steam in the future as well as to encourage more activity through Steam directly as opposed to third party review sites/forums.\n\nIt seems like Valve is taking the overall Steam user experience seriously and working towards trying to improve it by adding new features and revamping old ones."

"NSROM Monte Carlo From Marbella to Milan, there is no fascinating destination without a knob. A chain of Japanese Peruvian restaurants that fascinate gourmets has become a staple of virtually all tourist hotspots. At each location, wealthy customers stuff a chunk of black cod soaked in miso and yellowfin tuna tartare. DJ Play unobtrusive house music with expensive glasses.\n\nLast summer, Warsaw was up to date, and with its first appearance, it was unlikely to be added to the list. Barsobian accepted it well. From the edamame 25 zloty (€ 5.50 or $ 6.50) to the specialty sablefish 170 zloty, most nights the place was packed as far as the blockade allowed.Knob hiding place Liquor Designed to last 18 months. It went down with three. The average cost of opening a store was higher than that of the Monte Carlo branch.\n\nRich Poles who devour sashimi reveal more than their potential love for raw fish. Ultimately, they tell the story of European convergence.and EUThe heart is a simple bet. Thanks to the magic of goods, capital, services and the free movement of people, 27 diverse economies move together until, for example, living in France is at the same level as the people who live in it. In Poland. Convergence is usually indicated by a line marked Poland. GDP A chart heading towards what has been marked as Italy, France, and (still quite far) Germany. But convergence is more than just capital. To better understand it, take a look at the restaurants in the city.\n\nNobu is the top end of Warsaw’s vibrant restaurant scene, turning from clutter into one of Europe’s most vibrant. At the fashionable restaurant Norita, patrons can enjoy octopus covered with wasabi and teriyaki. With so many vegan restaurants, the city has become an unlikely mecca for animal food producers. The venue, which serves Polish cuisine, has transformed a once-unpleasant culinary culture into a diverse and sometimes wonderful one.\n\nThis helps with convergence in several ways. If the brightest country in the country wants to leave, it’s hard to catch up with its neighbors. In Germany and the Netherlands, wages are still about three times higher. However, ambitious young Poles go to places like Berlin and Amsterdam not only to earn more income, but also because it is a fun place to live. If you have a thrilling city at home, you have less incentive to leave.\n\nThere is also a bigger push to go back. Robert Trzópek returned to Poland 10 years ago after working in Michelin-starred British and Danish restaurants in the first half of his career. At that time, it was still difficult to find a market for fine dining. But now his restaurant, Bez Gwiazdek, exclusively serves food from different parts of Poland every month and will be full on Tuesday night in August. Barsovian is pressed into a small plate of tomatoes with fermented strawberries along with potatoes, cottage cheese and caviar.\n\nBetter Nosh also provides incentives for potential new arrivals, not returnees. In order for a place like Warsaw to attract high-paying commodity traders and back office staff, they must become more livable. It’s a way to solve the difficult problem of a soccer player’s wife.Former Sunderland manager Roy Keane AFC, A football club in a fashionable city in northeastern England complained that players were reluctant to sign because their spouse wanted to live in London or Manchester. Better grabs are part of the solution.\n\nThe restaurant provides the most prominent example of vital convergence with other parts of Poland EU.. Poland, like its western neighbors, is a country of mass immigrants.Prior to the pandemic, in 2019 Poland issued 724,000 residence permits to outsiders. EU— About 260,000 more than Germany, the second highest. Head to a bar or restaurant in Warsaw to see the impact of the influx. Staff are usually Belarusian or Ukrainian. When you order a takeaway, the riders who deliver it often come from South Asia.\n\nConvergence can also be a problem of changing social practices. Again, restaurants best show that. Poland’s right-wing law and justice are enthusiastic homosexual haters, and local politicians call homosexuals “LGBT-Free zone “. Warsaw eateries lead the repost. At the vegan sushi restaurant Youmiko, the pride flag on the door says “You are here.”Even politics lurks behind the rise of vegetarians and vegan restaurants, editor Alex Webber argues. Warsaw Insider, City guide. In 2016, Poland’s then Foreign Minister set out a nightmare vision of the future with “a mix of culture and race, a world of bicycles and vegetarians.” Eating vegan ramen is a small but delicious resistance.\n\nEurope is forged in ceviche\n\nThe drawback of convergence is homogenization. Eating in Warsaw can be a confusing experience. At some venues you may be in Berlin, Madrid or Amsterdam. The food is the same, and the furniture and menu fonts are the same. Even waiters have the same tattoos and beards. Some people in Warsaw are worried that the city is losing self-consciousness. Ironically, the fear of homogenization is shared by the right-wing government. If liberals are worried that restaurants will be the same, conservatives are afraid to be dragged into the mainstream of Europe regarding gay rights and abortions, which are almost completely illegal in Poland.\n\nConvergence by consumption is only possible so far. For those who stay before Poland catches up with its neighbors, they need higher wages, better schools and bigger prospects. Would a high-flying Polish woman want to stay in a country where the government considers her just a baby machine? Will gay men be content with a society that has decided to deprive him of certain rights? Still, even if the Polish government is a nightmare, Warsaw can be an international dream. There aren’t many sablefish plates and vegan ramen bowls. But that’s the beginning. ■■\n\nThis article was published in the European section of the print edition under the heading “Gindara’s Integrated Theory”.",

null,
null,
"The mine produced just under 13 million carats in 2019, down 8%, with lower grades partially offset by an increase in mining and processing rates.\n\nIt said Argyle would close in the fourth quarter of this year.\n\nThe date was the best-case scenario for the depleting mine, with Rio previously flagging this year as the end of the line, but warning it could come sooner.\n\nThe mine, which supplies almost all of the world's rare pink, red and violet diamonds, was discovered 40 years ago and has operated continuously since 1983.\n\nAt its peak, the mine produced 40% of world diamond output by volume. It still accounts for all of Australia's diamond production.\n\nArgyle employs more than 400 people and consultations are underway with employees.\n\nThe company will submit a mine closure plan to regulators this year after incorporating feedback from traditional owners.\n\nRio anticipates it will take five years to decommission and dismantle the mine and undertake rehabilitation, followed by a further period of time for monitoring.\n\nIconic mine runs out of pink diamonds",

"It’s a year of anniversaries in and for Woodstock. It’s a special one for the Woodstock Film Festival as it celebrates its 20th anniversary with a year round flurry of activities in anticipation of its actual October 2-October 6 outing — from screenwriting classes and staged readings to a variety of screenings and the WFF’s annual Taste of Woodstock event.\n\nWhile the four session screenwriting Mapping The Movie in Your Mind seminar with Woodstock-based Alex Smith has sold out, this month will see a special screening at 2 p.m. Sunday afternoon, April 28, at Upstate Films Woodstock, of the concert documentary Amazing Grace, featuring Aretha Franklin with the choir of the New Bethel Baptist Church in Watts, Los Angeles in January 1972, with musician Simi Stone introducing the film.\n\nIn May, WFF will then present, in collaboration with the great group Actors & Writers, a staged reading of a new screenplay, Feeding Mrs. Moskowitz, by Barbara Pokras and Fran Pokras Yariv, based on the novella by Barbara Pokras. Directed by Shelley Wyant, the cast will include Lori Wilner, Dannah Chaifetz, Mikhail Horowitz, Joe White, Mark St Germain, Katherine Burger, Davis Hall, Mary Gallagher, Nina Shengold and Brian Macready from the Actors & Writers troupe.\n\nThe 7th annual Taste of Woodstock benefit for the film festival and Hudson Valley Film Commission will then run from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Wednesday, May 22, throughout Woodstock with a host of participating restaurants and food purveyors offering a full meal to roving revelers, a la carte as they wander the town’s landscape of eateries.\n\nOn May 30, Upstate Films will again be the location for another special screening, this time of writer/producer/director Nabwana Isaac Godfrey Geoffrey and producer/star Alan Ssali Hofmanis’ DIY commando film, Bad Black, from Wakaliwood, Uganda, home of “da best of da best movies” with Hofmanis on hand to introduce the latest martial arts work created by self-taught filmmakers for under $200.\n\nThe diversity of filmmaking these days will also be on view, and heard loud and clear, when the film festival hosts a special talk on “Diverse Voices in Film and Media” in collaboration with Radio Kingston at a location to be determined in Kingston (with on-air coverage) on Saturday, June 1, with a guest list to include award-winning documentarian Yoruba Richen of The Green Book: Guide to Freedom fame and Roger Ross Williams, the first African American director to win an Academy Award for his various short documentaries. Other participants will be announced in the coming weeks.\n\nComing up on June 14 will be a co-presentation of a solar-powered outdoor film screening with Oscillation Transia, which is currently touring the nation screening works in outdoor and rural areas around that explore both fictional and non-fictional themes of movement, nomadic living, adventure and the natural world. The location will be announced by Memorial Day.\n\nAlso back this year will be WFF Executive Director and co-founder Meira Blaustein’s beloved Summer Youth Film Lab, which she will lead July 8 through July 26 at the Center for Creative Education in midtown Kingston, alongside Megan Sperry, Professor of Digital Media Production at SUNY New Paltz, as an opportunity for Hudson Valley teenage students to “learn about the filmmaking process from film industry professionals.” Films produced by the 14 to 18 year-olds at the Lab will be shown at the 20th annual Woodstock Film Festival come October. Sign up now.\n\nSee woodstockfilmfestival.com for tickets for events and for more information on all the WFF has to offer this 20th year, including the big anniversary festival itself.\n\nThe trail-building artistry of Eddie Walsh"

"Beans from the cocoa tree (Theobroma cacao) are used to make chocolate and other cocoa products. In PNG and other tropical nations, cocoa production provides the main income for many subsistence farmers. Potential yield is greatly reduced by many pests and diseases of which Black Pod disease caused by Phytophthora palmivora is the most devastating. Inexpensive, low technology control methods are required to increase yields and economic returns to farmers. The development and application of endophytic biological control agents that can reduce the severity of Black Pod disease will assist in increasing cocoa yields.\n\nThis research will be undertaken by Carolyn Blomley a PhD student at the University of Sydney in collaboration with the Cocoa and Coconut Institute PNG. The specific aims of this project are:\n\nEndophyte surveys yielded over 1500 fungal cultures from three locations in Papua New Guinea, Bougainville, Madang and East New Britain. In each location the endophyte community was dominated by the coelomycete genera Colletotrichum and Phomopsis. The richness of endophyte taxa was not significantly different between sites however the composition of the endophyte community isolated from 60 year old cocoa trees in Madang was measurably different to the composition of the endophyte community at all other sites and from younger trees at the same site. The endophyte community on the 60 year old cocoa trees was dominated by fungi belonging to the family Xylariaceae whereas Colletotrichum sp. and Phomopsis sp. occurred only at low frequencies. Tests of biological control activity identified two Xylariaceous isolates and one isolate of Trichoderma harzianum that are able to reduce the growth of P. palmivora in culture."

"I believe this is the first Celia Cruz song I remember hearing and liking. I guess it was also the first time I heard of Willie Colón. Like most of the songs from this week, I chose this one because I like it; nothing much to say about it.\n\nand forgive me, for continuing with this topic / I do not know how to write [either] a poem or a song / without a love theme.",

"Here’s another song that came to the list only after one play. It is hard to believe that I had never heard this song before. It is the type of song that you would think many artists would have recorded, but not too many have. After a little research, I found out that the song was introduced by Fanny Brice in the 1928 film “My Man”. However, it was popularised by jazz singer Annette Hanshaw.\n\nThis version of If You Want the Rainbow (You Must Have the Rain) by Norah Jones comes from the “Boardwalk Empire” soundtrack. One of the many good things about this HBO show was how they took old standards from the jazz era, re-arranged them, recorded them with present talent and re-introduced them. I was introduced to many hits from that era through both the TV show and the three CDs it produced during its run. “The Sheik Of Araby”, “Japanese Sandman”, and “Maple Leaf Rag” are a few of the songs I heard on “Boardwalk Empire” for the first time.\n\nFavourite Lyrics: Sadness ends in gladness, showers are not in vain / If you want the rainbow, you must have the rain.\n\nRunners Up: Miss Venezuela • Abusadora • Celestial Visions • Ibelin • Promenade (Walking The Dog) • Allez Lido! • Merci Beaucoup • He Loves Me • The Peanut Vendor • Out of Nowhere • (I’m a Dreamer) Aren’t We All • Dream a Little Dream of Me\n\nI can’t remember where or when I heard this composition for the first time, probably in some a concert when I was a kid. All I know is that I’ve always known and recognised it as a Gershwin piece.\n\nRhapsody in Blue has a very calming effect every time I hear it, particularly two-thirds into the composition when the strings come in. It is a very glorious moment, perhaps the instant when all foreign cultures and traditions merge to make up the melting pot that America is, which is what Gershwin wanted to convey with this rhapsody. Although originally composed as a tribute to America in general, it has a closer association with New York City.\n\nYou’re The One That I Want – Olivia Newton-John, John Travolta\n\nThe first job I ever had was at 13, it was as a car washer. Well, not exactly a car washer. I only had to wash five cars, an aunt’s car, her husband’s truck, and my own household’s three cars. I made 50 bolivars, 60 with the tips. What did I do with my earnings you ask? I went to the record store and bought the “Grease” double album soundtrack. At 13, my parents thought it was time for me to make my own money if I wanted to buy such banalities as the “Grease” record. I know, they just didn’t get “Grease”.\n\n“Grease” (Vaselina en español) opened in Venezuela in the last quarter of 1978. Unlike today, when movies can open simultaneously around the world, back in those days, they opened in groups. There were a limited number of prints to make the rounds in certain geographical regions. So, it’s very likely that the prints we got had already been around throughout a few Spanish speaking markets. That’s probably why it opened four months after it premiered in the States. “Grease” was really the word. It wasn’t just a tagline. Many knew about the film and were looking forward to it, among them my sister, brother and me. We were the first one in our block to watch the movie. My sister went to another movie house with her girlfriends to see it, though. She thought it’d be lame for her and her girlfriends to hang out with her younger brothers.\n\nNeedless to say, I loved the movie; I enjoyed every single moment of it, particularly the musical numbers. I thought everything was flawless, I still do. It is one of the best musicals of all time, perfect casting, choreography, direction and music. The movie has stood the test of time brilliantly; 40 years later newer generations are still discovering not only the film but also its great soundtrack.\n\nAs for the double record I bought, I think it’s still in my parents’ family room closet. I used to listen to it non-stop. “Summer Nights” and this one, You’re The One That I Want were my favourites.\n\nRunners Up: Summer Nights • Hopelessly Devoted To You • We Go Together • Theme from Jurassic Park • Prologue: Into the Woods • It Takes Two • Stay With Me • Moments in the Woods",

"By 1974, my parents’ economic situation had flourished to upper-middle-class levels. My father was the manager of a large car dealer and had become an academic at the State University too. He was making so much money, that within the first months of working at the University; he had enough money for a down payment on a big brand new house in the northern part of the city. We had been living in a small flat in a low-income neighbourhood located on the opposite side of the city. The move implied that we had to go through some major re-adjustments.\n\nThe first order of the day was swapping schools. Along with my siblings, I was attending a small co-ed Catholic school in our neighbourhood run by the Saint Rita of Cascia nuns. Strategically, my parents decided that we should switch schools before the move, which was to happen within one or two months after the start of the school year in September. My sister was sent to an all-girls Catholic school also run by nuns (The Saint Mariana of Jesus order). My brother went to an all-boys Catholic school run by Paulists priests. I was supposed to go to the same school as my brother, but the 4th-grade class was full, so my parents had to look for another school.\n\nI ended up going to a very small, I mean tiny, but very exclusive school in the affluent part of the city. There were probably less than 150 students in the entire school, including the first three years of high school. I’m not sure how I ended up there. I believe one of the owners of the car dealer my father managed called the school board and asked them to take me in; I think he was one of the school’s principal benefactors.\n\nWith a school already in place, it was now a matter of finding transportation. After a few phone calls, my father found a man who just happened to live nearby and had a daily route picking up kids to take to my new school. There was a catch, though. He could only pick me up very early in the morning, around 6:30 AM. So, every morning at about 6:20 my mother would take me down to the bus stop to wait for Mr Jimmy, I believe that was his name.\n\nMr Jimmy had a small green van. There would only be two kids on board when he’d come to pick me up, one was Jimmy, his son. The other was Gerardo, another kid from my neighbourhood, a year younger than me whom I had met at my previous school. The three of us attended the same school. What were the chances of another child from my old school transferring to the same small school in the other part of the city I was going? I’ve always wondered. Anyway, Mr Jimmy had two routes. After picking me up, we would drive to the part of the city where most oil company workers lived. In his first route, he would pick up foreign kids, mostly Americans, who attended the “Roberts School”, an American school in the city. After approximately 35 minutes, when all the “Roberts School” kids had been dropped off at the school’s gates, it was time to go pick up the kids from the second route. The second group of kids, like myself, were going to the John XXIII school (no Catholic affiliation, just the Pope’s name). After another 30-35 minutes, we would be drop off at the school’s gates, just in time for the bell.\n\nIn retrospect, over an hour on a bus, going around the city, was too much for a young kid, but that’s the best arrangement my parents could find at the time. The trip was long and tedious at times, so we have to find ways to entertain ourselves. Jimmy, Gerardo and I would create games to help us pass the time. I remember counting white cars with black roofs in the highway, crossing our fingers, making a wish, and uncrossing our fingers when we’d see a red car; or something along those lines, the rules of the game escape me now.\n\nThe American kids were a friendly bunch, always smiling, and talking among themselves, but we wouldn’t pay much attention to them. Jimmy, Gerardo and I would continue doing our own stuff. The fun ended when we started picking up the rich kids who went to my school. They’d come in and take command of our space. Not that they were mean or anything, but they’d come in and talk about things and places that none of us could really relate. We just sat there and listened to stories of how the other half lived. There were two girls whose names escape me, who used to sing this song, both in English and Spanish. Sing stuck in my head, and there’s no time I listen to it that I don’t fondly remember my days at the “John XXIII” school and my daily journey around the city.\n\nAlthough the idea was to travel across town for a couple of months, it didn’t go as planned. We weren’t able to move to our new house for another five months, in May, just a few weeks shy of the end of the school year.\n\nFavourite Lyrics: Don’t worry that it’s not good enough / For anyone else to hear / Sing / Sing a song",
null,
"Without a doubt, this is my favourite Venezuelan song; that is, my favourite pop song created by a Venezuelan composer. It is a very simple and romantic way to tell someone the reasons why you love them. I was gladly surprised to find out the song was written in 1965.\n\nI stand here, looking at you / and I’ve found so many reasons / that I conclude the best reason [to love you] is you.\n\nNOTE: With this song, I’ve finished listening to my entire iTunes library. No more runners up after this song. It is time to listen to all the finalists now.\n\nThis is one of the most beautiful melodies that I’ve ever heard. Its poignancy comes, perhaps, from the fact that it is not a love song. Although the singer is still very much in love, this is a song about a breakup. It is never clear why the couple is breaking up, but it is very obvious that there’s still a lot of passion in their relationship. So much passion indeed, that the woman announces she has no other option but to remain a cat in heat longing to be reunited with her lover again, under the rain. I know, the drama!"

"The Floyd family confronted the Minneapolis police chief on air",
null,
"In an interview, Philonise Floyd demanded the arrest of all the former police officers involved in George Floyd’s death.\n\nThe brother of George Floyd spoke to the Minneapolis Police Department chief for the first time on Sunday and broke down in tears as he questioned whether the former police officers involved in his brother’s death would be arrested.\n\nAll four officers involved in the death of George Floyd were “complicit,” including the three who haven’t been arrested, says Minneapolis Police Chief Medaria Arradondo, responding to a question asked by @sarasidnerCNN on behalf of Floyd’s brother. https://t.co/JiE3Mx8xF2 pic.twitter.com/yalvaWfpDV\n\nThe death of Floyd, whose neck was pinned to the ground by former officer Derek Chauvin last Monday, sparked protests across the nation. Chauvin and the three other former officers involved in the incident were swiftly fired, just a day after the death. However, only Chauvin was arrested on a charge of second-degree manslaughter and third-degree murder on Friday, while the other three former officers remain uncharged.\n\nDressed in a T-shirt that read “I can’t breathe” — the dying words of his brother — Philonise Floyd demanded their arrest during an interview with CNN’s Don Lemon.\n\n“They’re at home right now sleeping in their bed, relaxing,” he said. “[Chauvin’s] in jail, he’s only one. The other three need to be in there. My brother — he’s in the morgue. That’s not right. I want justice now. He deserves that.”\n\nThen, as Philonise watched, CNN broadcasted a live interview with Minneapolis Police Chief Medaria Arradondo, who was present at a protest near the intersection where George Floyd died. On behalf of Philonise, CNN’s Sara Sidner’s asked Arradondo whether the other three former officers would be arrested for George Floyd’s death. Arradondo removed his hat as he addressed the family:\n\n“Being silent or not intervening — to me, you’re complicit. So I don’t see a level of distinction any different,” Arradondo said. “So obviously the charging and those decisions will have to come through our county attorney’s office. Certainly, the FBI is investigating that. But to the Floyd family, I want you to know that my decision to fire all four officers was not based on some sort of hierarchy. Mr. Floyd died in our hands.”\n\nHe, however, failed to deliver a straightforward answer on whether or not the other three former officers would be arrested. Following his answer, Philonise challenged Arradondo on the inaction, his voice strained with frustration.\n\nAnd although Philonise managed to keep a stone face throughout the interview, he eventually broke down into tears and buried his face into his hand. Sidner also grew emotional when she learned that this was Philonise’s first interaction with the police chief.\n\nEven though she went on to command Arradondo’s response, she also acknowledged, “I know it doesn’t cure the ills that the Floyd family is dealing with and that all the people in this neighborhood are dealing with right now.”\n\nThe stakes of the Senate, explained\n\nWhat people get wrong about herd immunity, explained by epidemiologists"

"A case that exposes agencies’ failures",
null,
"A former head of the country’s premier intelligence agency (ISI) wants to go abroad but he can’t leave the country because his name is on the no-fly list.\n\nHe moves the high court to have the ban removed, but the defence ministry opposes the petition on the ground that Lt Gen (retd) Asad Durrani’s name had been placed on the no-fly list for “his involvement in anti-state activities”.\n\nThe ministry also alleges that the former general, who remained in the army for 32 years and served on many sensitive posts, had been interacting with “hostile elements especially Indian intelligence agency Research and Analysis Wing (RAW) since 2008”.\n\nThere can’t be a matter of greater shame for the country, which is the only nuclear power of the Islamic Ummah.\n\nFormer head of an intelligence agency, who is also a former general, involved in anti-state activities? Unbelievable. The very thought makes one shiver.\n\nBut when the allegation, or suspicion, comes from the defence ministry it has to be given due importance. It can’t just be ignored.\n\nGen Durrani, now 80, had co-authored a book “The Spy Chronicles: RAW, ISI and the Illusion of Peace” with former RAW chief AS Dulat in 2018.\n\nThe defence ministry said that Durrani’s intention to travel abroad to participate in international conferences, forum and talk shows would have serious national security implications as was evident from the recently published book “Honour Among Spies”, which was also written by Durrani and “published through Indian publishers/RAW-supported elements”.\n\nThe ministry said that according to the existing law, such a person, who is accused of planning a conspiracy against the state, cannot leave the country.\n\nThe ministry urged the court not to remove former ISI chief’s name from ECL saying, “Durrani had submitted an affidavit committing to refrain from such activities, which is still not tangible.”\n\nGen Durrani was the 10th director general of the ISI who wore the mantle of the most dreaded post from Aug 1990 to March 1992. This was the period when the PML-N ruled the country after the dismissal of Benazir Bhutto on a variety of charges.\n\nAccording to the procedure the ISI chief is appointed by the prime minister on the recommendation of the army chief.\n\nThe defence ministry’s reply on Gen Durrani’s petition raises many questions: What was the major consideration behind his appointment? Why it could not be detected that the man, whose primary job was to keep an eye on the enemy designs and inform the government so that necessary steps could be taken to thwart them, had the inclination to join hands with his counterpart of the enemy country?\n\nThen, why the ISI could not detect in time that Gen Durrani was in touch with RAW chief Dulat and why it could not prevent the publication of a book which the defence ministry now says was reviewed from the security angle and according to the inquiry board its content was against the interests of Pakistan.\n\nIf the ministry can now foretell that Durrani’s intention to travel abroad to participate in international conferences, forum and talks shows would have serious national security implications as was evident from the recently published book “Honour Among Spies”, which was also written by Durrani and “published through Indian publishers/RAW-supported elements”, why had the institution failed to get information about his contacts abroad then?\n\nThe argument that according to the existing law, such a person, who is accused of planning a conspiracy against the state, cannot leave the country appears weighty but it can’t cover up the failures of the defence ministry and the intelligence bosses witnessed in the case.\n\nA military court had stripped Gen Durrani of his pension and other benefits. However, he challenged the matter before the Lahore High Court and then told the judge that his pension had been restored."

"Steichen took several photographs of the virtuoso French sculptor Auguste Rodin. He also made prints of his sculptures and exhibited many of Rodin's sketches and drawings at the 291 Gallery in New York. The two men had become close friends whilst Steichen was living in Montparnasse at the very beginning of the twentieth century. Indeed, Rodin was to become godfather to Steichen's daughter Katherine whose middle name Rodina was chosen in tribute to the sculptor.\n\nIn this photograph, Rodin is in profile at the left-hand side of the image, mirroring (on the right of the frame) the profile of possibly his most iconic sculpture, Le Penseur (The Thinker). In the background is another of Rodin's famous works, his Monument to Victor Hugo, a writer whose work the Frenchman greatly admired. (The monument to Hugo is here only rendered in plaster and was not cast in bronze until after Rodin's death.) Both works connect Rodin with the intellectual virtues of art, philosophy and literature and Steichen's aim was to associate himself with these qualities too. By photographing a Modern artist and with two of his artworks, Steichen invokes a sort of four-way conversation (between Rodin, the Thinker, Hugo, and Steichen himself) that places photography, still in its infancy in 1900, as a legitimate tool to expand the dialogue of modernism.",

"Landscape with Avenue of Trees\n\nIn his early career Steichen combined painting and photography and one can begin to see here how his painting informed on his photographic work. In Landscape with Avenue of Trees, Steichen clearly shows the influence of Tonalism, an artistic movement that began with the painter James McNeill Whistler in the 1870s. Whistler, who was an acknowledged influence on the young Steichen, was interested in composing his paintings in a way that echoed the composition of musical pieces, but by using color rather than notes. Through this tight compositional structure and focus, Tonalists explored the subtle nuances of color and its possibilities for expressing a given mood (much like music).\n\nThis painting shows Steichen's skill in communicating the nuances of expression through a muted color palette. The work almost verges into abstraction through its interplay of dark and light. Though the title alerts us to the \"avenue of trees\", the shapes in the foreground are not necessarily very easy to make out, and the landscape itself is only faintly depicted. The moon peeks out from just behind the foliage of the tall tree, casting a glow around the edge of its shape and causing an almost ripple effect of light across the sky itself. It is an image that demands our concentration, Steichen is encouraging his viewer to look (and look again) in order to determine the distinctions in color, shape and line.",

"Steichen's interest in the interrelationship between photography and Tonalist painting is evident in his famous images of the Flatiron Building. Located at 175 Fifth Avenue in Manhattan, the Flatiron building was one of the tallest in the world upon its completion in 1902, and was truly unique due to its shape. This image was first seen publicly at the \"International Exhibition of Pictorial Photography\" held in Buffalo, New York in 1910. It was in fact one of six hundred images selected by Alfred Stieglitz as a means of showcasing the artistry of Pictorialist photography. Steichen's photograph, which highlights his feel for shapes and textures, became one of his most famous images and it is easy to see a relationship here with his painting Landscape with Avenue of Trees. The building of the title looms disconcertingly in the background, a large shadow in the centre of the frame. Steichen omits the tip of the building, as if, perhaps, its sheer scale could not be contained by the frame.\n\nThis image was produced at the height of Steichen's Pictorialist period with the Photo-Secession group. At this time he was interested in adapting and manipulating his photographs and here he colorized the image using layers of pigment in a light-sensitive solution. The image actually exists in three versions, each with a slightly different tone and feel, demonstrating how powerful color can be in altering mood. With this print, his aim was to capture something of the nuances of light in the early hours of the evening. As Professor William Sharpe observed: \"Night is a time of dreaming, of freeing repressed libidinal energies, and photographs such as this subtly exploit the suggestive properties of urban landscape, using a symbolic language to disclose truths [that would be] hidden at midday.\"",

"This image was taken in Mamaroneck, New York, when Steichen was visiting his friend, the art critic Charles Caffin. It depicts the moon rising behind a clearing of trees, and then reflected onto a completely still pond. Like Flatiron, Moonlight: The Pond uses light and shadow in an extraordinarily evocative and haunting way.\n\nSteichen demonstrates here once more his interest in Tonalism. His landscape is \"washed\" in a color tone to form a finished mist-like effect. The interplay of light and dark, and the broad dark washes laying across Steichen's palette, were then fully in keeping with the pictorial preferences of the Photo-Secession group. Though the image might appear to be quite simple, it is in fact a complex emotional composition in the way it manipulates its light sources. The moon peaks above the horizon and glows brightly through the trees; its center-frame positioning, meanwhile, suggesting a precise and studied compositional set up. Responding to this image in Camera Work, Caffin confirmed Steichen's credentials as a bone-fide photographic artist through this rather poetic reading: \"It is in the penumbra, between the clear visibility of things and their total extinction into darkness, when the concreteness of appearances becomes merged in half-realised, half-baffled vision, that spirit seems to disengage itself from matter to envelop it with a mystery of soul-suggestion.\"",

"In this astonishing image, made after he abandoned his interest in Tonalism, Steichen captures an otherworldly energy in the movement of Thérèse Duncan, the adopted daughter of the renowned dancer Isadora Duncan. Steichen met Isadora when she was in Venice with her dance troupe. He then followed her to Greece in the hope of being able to photograph her dancing on the Acropolis. In the end, however, it was Thérèse and not Isadora that he photographed on the rocks above the citadel. The image was first published in Vanity Fair in 1923 accompanied with a caption by the poet Carl Sandburg (Steichen's brother-in-law) which read: \"Goat girl caught in the brambles . . . let it all burn in this wind fire, let the fire have it...\"\n\nIn the photograph, the exuberant Thérèse has contorted her body; her knee is cocked, and her arms are cradled over her head in an almost Classical female pose. She stands on uneven rock with some leaves of wild-plants in the foreground, but it is her billowing dress that grabs our attention. The translucent material both hides and reveals her body. Thérèse appears to us as almost naked in fact. Steichen said the following about the image: \"She was a living reincarnation of a Greek nymph [...] The wind pressed the garments tight to her body, and the ends were left flapping and fluttering. They actually crackled. This gave the effect of fire.\" Steichen has managed to capture a timeless image here in the way the modern and the classical meet.\n\nThis portrait of silent movie star Gloria Swanson is one of Steichen's most celebrated works. It merges the worlds of portraiture and fashion photography to spellbinding effect. The image was later published in the February 1928 issue of Vanity Fair to help publicize Swanson's new film Sadie Thompson.\n\nJournalist, critic and editor of Vanity Fair Frank Crowinshield referred to Steichen as the \"world's greatest living portrait photographer\" and in this portrait one can appreciate his point. The most striking element of the picture are the Star's hypnotic eyes that look directly into ours. Given that they had no voice, it was the norm for silent film stars to convey their screen presence through their eyes. Indeed, Swanson was widely recognized for her wide-eyed look and by emphasising them in this image, Steichen acknowledged her intelligence and her skill as a performer. In this way, the portrait celebrates both her standing as an artist and her qualities as an individual. Steichen wrote about the photography session in his autobiography: \"At the end of the session, I took a piece of black lace veil and hung it in front of her face. She recognized the idea at once. Her eyes dilated, and her look was that of a leopardess lurking behind leafy shrubbery, watching her prey. You don't have to explain things to a dynamic and intelligent personality like Miss Swanson. Her mind works swiftly and intuitively.\" In this description, Steichen acknowledged that if one is to strive for the very best portraiture, then there must first be a true affiliation between sitter and artist.\n\nDuring the first half of the twentieth century, New York came into its own. There was considerable public fascination with skyscrapers and demand for architectural photography and magazine features was high. Steichen was thus commissioned by Vanity Fair to photograph the Empire State Building, at that time the world's tallest building, and arguably the modern world's greatest architectural achievement.\n\nFaced with the problem of capturing the true majesty of this iconic landmark, Steichen prepared for his assignment with the same thoughtfulness with which he approached his portraiture. In order to capture the building's true stature, Steichen devised a strategy whereby he photographed the building frontally and cater-cornered before then superimposing one negative on top of the other. The end effect, in which Steichen renders the building's power in three dimensions, is astounding. As for the images title, Steichen said \"I conceived the building as a Maypole...to suggest the swirl of a Maypole dance\" (a city centrepiece, indeed, around which the proud denizens of New York might come to rejoice).\n\nIn 1951, MoMA initiated an \"Art Lending Service\" which operated into the early eighties. The lending service was devised by the museum's Junior Council to encourage art collecting amongst its members and/or the general public. Selected works were available for rent for three months at a time, after which, the patron was free to buy or return the work to the museum. The Maypole was one of the most popular images to pass through the \"Art Lending Service\". According to MoMA's own publicity, The Maypole's popularity was \"testament [to] the technological advancements in architecture as much as in photography, and [to] the iconic legacy of one of the sharpest eyes to have captured both.\""

"Located in the area of the Po Delta, Adria was the town that imposed its name to the Adriatic Sea. Already in the sixth century a. C. served as a port of access to the Po Valley for Greeks and Etruscans, who here came into contact with the local Celto-Venetian population. But today arriving in Adria there are two colors that stand out on the landscape: the blue of the canals and rii and the green of the fertile fields. In the middle, a small charming town whose symbol are the beautiful and picturesque river banks, ideal background for quiet walks accompanied by the slow flow of water.\n\nThe center develops around Piazza Garibaldi also called Piazza \"Castello\", on which overlook the old Cathedral, Palazzo dell'Orologio, built on the old town hall, and other historic buildings. While the new Cathedral dedicated to Saints Peter and Paul contains a striking reproduction of the Grotto of Lourdes.\n\nThe history of Adria can be read by visiting the premises of the National Archaeological Museum, which exhibits historical finds - instruments and ceramics - of the Iron Age.\nThe museum was inaugurated in 1961 and contains finds from the collection of the Bocchi family and from the archaeological sites of pre-Roman and Roman times discovered around the city.\n\nWhere is the National Archaeological Museum?\nIt is located in Adria (RO), in Via G.

"Northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region has been expanding the use of clean energy in the tourism industry to retain its unique scenery.\n\nTianchi Lake, also known as Heavenly Lake, is a national 5A tourist attraction. As winter vacation is drawing near, the staff of the management committee of the scenic area are stepping up preparations for the 18th Ice and Snow Festival.\n\nThe Tianchi Lake scenic area is the first in the region to fully use gas and electricity to replace coal in transportation, accommodation and catering. Now more than 95 percent of the facilities in the area are using clean energy, which has helped reduce over 4,000 tonnes of coal consumption since the clean energy program began.\n\nThe Urumqi naan industrial and cultural park is a rising star in Xinjiang's tourism. It showcases the history and cooking process of naan, a type of leavened pancake and a staple food for the ethnic groups in the region.\n\nTraditionally, naan stoves were fueled by charcoal. But now, naan makers in the park mainly power their stoves with electricity. An approximate 60 million kWh of electricity is generated to substitute the energy provided by burning charcoal in the park each year, according to the State Grid's Urumqi power supply company. Now eight naan producers in the park can bake up to 500,000 naans a day.\n\nThe green efforts are part of the region's move to protect the local environment while further promoting its tourism industry.\n\nXinjiang boasts rich natural resources and marvelous landscapes, making tourism one of its fastest-growing industries. In the first 10 months of 2019, Xinjiang received 200 million tourists, up 42.62 percent year on year, a new record high."

"Regular batteries provide energy by using chemical reactions in between two electrodes, the anode and cathode, which typically interact by way of liquid or gel electrolytes. Solid-condition batteries as a substitute make use of solid electrolytes these as ceramics.\n\nNow ABEE is supporting produce a avenue-lawful electrical “hypercar,” the Fulminea, which is established to go to sector in the 2nd half of 2023. It will feature a hybrid battery pack that brings together ABEE’s solid-condition cells with ultra-capacitors.\n\nItalian automaker Automobili Estrema is building the Fulminea, which will feature 4 electrical motors with a overall peak power of 1.five megawatts (two,040 horsepower), enabling the car or truck to accelerate from to 320 km/h (two hundred mph) in below ten seconds. Its 100 kilowatt-hour battery pack will give it an expected selection of about 520 kilometers (323 miles).\n\nABEE is supplying the batteries, which use metallic lithium anodes, nickel-prosperous cathodes and a sulfide electrolyte, whilst battery professional Imecar Elektronik will assist bundle the cells. The battery pack will have a predicted pounds below three hundred kilograms, and Fulminea will have a predicted overall curb pounds of 1,five hundred kg.\n\n“We are now aiming in direction of the scalability of our technology—optimizing the creation process, the battery lifetime and the charging fee,” Omar says.\n\nIn addition, experts at the College of California, San Diego, in partnership with electronics huge LG, have made a new silicon all-solid-condition battery that preliminary exams exhibit is protected, prolonged-lasting and electrical power-dense.\n\n“With existing traits, we goal to create our initial commercially applicable product or service by 2025, and reach substantial sector penetration by 2030,” says nanoengineer Zheng Chen at the College of California, San Diego.\n\nSolid-condition batteries with significant electrical power densities have typically relied on metallic lithium for their anodes. Having said that, these components area limitations on battery cost charges and require warm temperatures through charging, typically sixty levels C or higher. Silicon anodes can get over these constraints, enabling substantially a lot quicker cost charges at space-to-lower temperatures whilst maintaining significant electrical power densities.\n\n“Metallic lithium has generally been regarded as the holy grail of battery anodes. The silicon discovery opens up huge-ranging choices to undertake choices to metallic lithium,” Chen says. “On top of that, silicon is a remarkably considerable, lower-expense and protected content. This is a much more environmentally friendly solution.”\n\n1) The all solid-condition battery is composed of a cathode composite layer, a sulfide solid electrolyte layer, and a carbon free of charge micro-silicon anode.\n\ntwo) Right before charging, discrete micro-scale silicon particles make up the electrical power dense anode. During battery charging, favourable lithium ions go from the cathode to the anode, and a secure 2d interface is fashioned.",

"three) As much more lithium ions go into the anode, it reacts with micro-silicon to sort interconnected lithium-silicon alloy (Li-Si) particles. The reaction proceeds to propagate all over the electrode.\n\nfour) The reaction brings about expansion and densification of the micro-silicon particles, forming a dense Li-Si alloy electrode. The mechanical houses of the Li-Si alloy and the solid electrolyte have a very important job in maintaining the integrity and contact along the 2d interfacial aircraft.\n\nScientists and battery makers have investigated silicon for a long time as an electrical power-dense content to blend into, or completely switch, the graphite anodes viewed in traditional lithium-ion batteries. In principle, silicon gives about ten times the electrical power density of graphite.\n\nHaving said that, previous makes an attempt to add silicon to the anodes of lithium-ion batteries experience from general performance issues—specifically, the range of times these batteries can get discharged and recharged whilst maintaining general performance is not significant ample for commercial use. This is mostly simply because of how the silicon anodes could degrade when interacting with the liquid electrolytes they are paired with, as very well as the way the silicon particles can tremendously extend and deal in dimension as they recharge and discharge.\n\nThe new battery taken out the liquid electrolyte, as a substitute utilizing solid sulfide-dependent electrolytes. These electrolytes were usually considered to be remarkably unstable, but that was thanks to exploration on liquid units that did not get into account the steadiness observed in solid versions. The new examine finds this electrolyte is really secure in batteries with all-silicon anodes.\n\nThe experts also taken out all carbon and binders from the anodes. This noticeably lowered the contact and undesirable aspect reactions they built with the solid electrolyte, avoiding continuous electrical power loss typically viewed with liquid electrolytes. In addition, they employed micron-scale silicon particles, which is significantly less highly-priced than the nanometer-scale silicon particles usually employed in these perform.\n\nThe new batteries guarantee a significant quantity of electrical power density in conditions of place. As these, the scientists propose these equipment could in the long run obtain use in grid storage applications.\n\n“The silicon-dependent all-solid-condition battery addresses the expense and basic safety concerns affiliated with traditional batteries for these applications,” Chen says. “If productive, just about every house will be outfitted with electrical power storage units driven by this innovation that decrease their utility expenses, give a backup power provide, and assistance the world wide electrical power transition.”\n\nIn distinction, electrical autos typically require batteries with a significant electrical power densities in conditions of pounds. Even now, “we are not ruling out automotive applications,” Chen says.\n\nThe experts thorough their findings in the Sept. 24 concern of the journal Science. The university and LG Electrical power Resolution have jointly filed a patent software on this perform, and the university scientists have released a startup, Unigrid Battery, that has certified this technological know-how.\n\nFri Oct 29 , 2021\nThe 2020 fireplace season in the United States was the worst in at the very least 70 many years, with some four million hectares burned on the west coastline by yourself. These West Coastline fires killed at the very least 37 people, ruined hundreds of constructions, brought about approximately US […]"

"This exhibition untitled \"Jesús del Pozo\" was a homage to the greatest Spanish fashion\ndesigner Jesús del Pozo, who died in 2011 and was very long waited and deserved.\n\nThe exhibition was at the Sala Canal de Isabel II - Comunidad de Madrid, curated\nby Esperanza García Claver, Sept-Oct 2016. The special conditions of the exhibition\nspace together with the requirements of the pieces exhibited result in being the\nprotagonists of the show, and although it was intended as a homage to the designer,\neach garment was the case. But, having said that and taken into account, one can\nalways focus on the main matter here: the pieces, works of art in most cases,\ndesigned and created by the feverish mind of Jesus del Pozo.",

"This exhibition was not only a well-deserved homage, but also an exaltation of the\nfashion creation of the 80s, specifically in Madrid, where the artist had his sewing\nworkshop installed and also a sample of the artistic capacity of El Pozo. Apart from the\nfact that the designer created many outfits for well-known clients, the costumes and\nensembles that are part of this exhibition are a minimum part of the catalogue of\ncreations del Pozo did along his career, but they are a good example of his\ncraftsmanship and powerful imagination.\n\nHis sculptural visions are shown here in some of the pieces that resemble works\nof art of the classical times. The purity in lines and patterns, as well as the use of\nfine and artistic fabrics are the signature of his brand and were the touches that\nmade his collections be the most demanded in the times his atelier was open.\n\nThe display of the garments following the layout of the halls and the stairs,\nwith the impressive metal architecture of the former water tank space, together\nwith the use of very low light and dedicated spots on certain pieces, give a very\ndramatic impression of the exhibition. Climbing up the stairs of every floor\nprepare the visitor for an almost of spiritual experience.\n\nThis exhibition was a good, and also a little risky due to the space chosen, approach\nto the oeuvre of the very talented designer, that created a refined and very artisanal\nbody of work, it was more than fashion design, it was a very artful creative body of\nwork and it was more that the right time to celebrate it.",

"Syrian government forces earlier took control of the airfield, which had been used by the United States",

"KOBANE /Syria/, November 15. /TASS/. Russian military police have begun guarding an airfield near the city of Kobane in northern Syria, where US troops used to be deployed, a senior military police inspector told reporters.\n\nSyrian government forces earlier took control of the airfield, which the United States had used in order to deliver military aid to the so-called Syrian moderate opposition. US troops hastily left the airfield on Wednesday and Russia’s Aerospace Forces deployed its helicopters there, while military police officers began guarding the area.\n\n\"Our unit has begun guarding the airfield and the military base and patrolling the perimeter,\" the military police inspector said. \"De-miners are currently checking the facility for explosive devices. We don’t know what traps and surprises the former owners of the base could have left behind,\" he added.\n\nJudging by infrastructure facilities at the base, it seems that US troops planned to stay there for a long time, Russian military sources said, pointing out that there were air-conditioned living units, a self-contained energy system and even a gym.\n\nHead of the Russian Center for Reconciliation of the Opposing Sides in Syria Sergei Zhmurin told reporters that the Russian military \"began the establishment of the Center’s branch in the Metras settlement, which would facilitate efforts to restore peaceful life.\" \"Today, we are beginning to provide humanitarian aid and medical assistance to civilians,\" he added. A humanitarian aid distribution center will be set up in the area in the near future."

"From the Autumn 2021 issue of Living Bird magazine. Subscribe now.\n\nIn February 2021, the Cornell Lab of Ornithology added 88 acres to its Sapsucker Woods Sanctuary in Ithaca, N.Y. The new land acquisition increases the size of Sapsucker Woods by nearly 40% and adds shrubland habitat to the woods and wetlands in the rest of the sanctuary.\n\n“We all owe great thanks to [the Cornell Lab’s] longtime friend and board member Louisa Duemling, who made an exceptionally generous and timely gift commitment that allowed this purchase to move forward,” says John Fitzpatrick, former director of the Cornell Lab, who oversaw the acquisition.\n\nAccording to Fitzpatrick, the ongoing prospect of development on this land “had long been a threat to the ecological sanctity of our preserve.”\n\n“The shrubby, old-field habitat should attract birds like Blue-winged Warbler, Eastern Towhee, and Alder Flycatcher during the nesting season,” says David Bonter, codirector of the Cornell Lab’s Center for Engagement in Science and Nature. Bonter, who also teaches several undergraduate ornithology courses at Cornell University, says new paths now being planned will expand the current Sapsucker Woods trail network, and he plans to take his classes to the new parcel in the fall 2021 semester.\n\nCornell Lab Visitor Experience Manager Lisa Kopp is also excited about the new shrublands at Sapsucker Woods: “An expanded Sapsucker Woods means the chance for new interpretation on the trails, new self-guided experiences, and just the fun of exploring a new habitat with different plants and animals.”"

"#2 of 18 Places to Visit in Kedarnath\n\nAt a distance of 3 km from Kedarnath, Chorabari Tal, also known as Gandhi Tal, is a beautiful lake produced from the Chorabari Bamak glacier.\n\nChorabari Tal is a small lake that holds crystal clear water. Perched at an altitude of 3,900 m above sea level, Gandhi Sarovar lies on the foot of Kedarnath and Kirthi Stambh peak. It offers magnificent views of the surrounding Himalayan peaks.\n\nThe original name of the lake is Kanti Sarovar. In the year 1948, some of Mahatma Gandhi's ashes were immersed here, after which it was renamed Gandhi Sarovar. According to mythology, this lake was the place where Lord Shiva imparted the knowledge of Yoga to the Saptrishis. There is a Bhairava Temple close to the glacier adjacent to a cliff known as Bhairava Jhamp. The cliff was a place where devotees jumped off, believing that it would bring them mukti. The practice was banned by the British administration in the 19th century.\n\nThe lake demands a trek of 3 km and is visited in summer. It is advised to visit Gandhi Sarovar early in the morning, because the weather of this region changes rapidly. The 3 km trek commences from the iron bridge of Kedarnath and ends up at Gandhi Sarovar. The trek is easy and beautiful through grassy fields. There is a beautiful Madhu Ganga waterfall enroute to this lake."

"Rebecca Mead is the author of the new book My Life in Middlemarch, and also of One Perfect Day: The Selling of the American Wedding. A staff writer for The New Yorker, she lives in Brooklyn.\n\nA: I did it because I wanted to write about something I loved. My last book was about the American wedding industry; it was interesting, it was intriguing, but it was also horrifying. I was immersed in a world I found appalling. I decided if I was going to spend several years immersed in something, it would be something I really loved.\n\nQ: What did you see as the parallels between your own life and that of George Eliot?\n\nA: There were certain things I knew about George Eliot that were parallel to my life—she was a journalist, she moved from a provincial town to a big city; there was a certain amount of kinship there. The big difference was that she was a staggering genius. But there was a certain kind of [similarity]—she remained single until well into her 30s and so did I. There was a feeling of recognition.\n\nThen there were things I hadn’t thought through that were uncanny. She had three stepsons, as do I. I knew she’d lived many years with George Henry Lewes, I knew he had children, but I hadn’t learned much about them, or thought about the impact on her.\n\nWhen I was younger, I made the mistake of thinking of her as a childless woman. She was not a mother in the conventional sense, but she was the stepmother to three boys with varying degrees of success. She found it difficult in many ways and rewarding in many ways. I married a man with the same first name as her husband, and he had three sons of the same age as her stepsons. It was uncanny.\n\nIt made me read Middlemarch differently. When I thought of her depictions of young men in that book, it was written in light of [her experiences with her stepsons], among other experiences, and it was not a direct depiction of the three Lewes boys, but she couldn’t help but be influenced.\n\nQ: Did you see parallels between your own life and that of the characters in Middlemarch?\n\nA: When I first read it when I was 17, I identified completely with Dorothea. I’m English, but I’m not of that class, no one was expecting me to get married at 19; they would have been horrified if I had. But I saw myself completely in her, and I failed to see the jokes George Eliot has at her expense.\n\nWhen I read it in my 30s, I found the story of Lydgate, who aspires to do great things with his medical work but ends up a doctor whose most significant production is a treatise on gout—his failed professional aspirations rang more true to me. I was trying to establish a career as a writer, with ups and downs.",
null,
"When I was 40-ish, I found the figure of Casaubon, who when I was younger I dismissed as awful, cruel and unfeeling—I could see the sympathy with which he’s drawn, the pathos. He expected to have done things he hadn’t done. It rang horribly true. I felt I could no longer dismiss him. I was more or less his age.\n\nYou can go back, and it has all these layers. I don’t know what it will say to me the next time.\n\nA: I had a wonderful time doing it. I began by doing a lot of reading. I knew I wanted to write a book about George Eliot but wasn’t sure [of the approach]. I went back and read her novels, letters, journals, some of the biographies about her.\n\nI went back to England several times to visit places [including] the town where she wrote Middlemarch. I went to London, I looked at pictures of her in the National Portrait Gallery, I walked around the streets she walked around. It was a physical immersion.\n\nI also used imaginative immersion. I went to the British Library, where manuscripts of Middlemarch were made available to me. It was a phenomenal experience. It was very exciting. Also, there was material here, at the New York Public Library, and at Yale and Harvard.\n\nQ: What do you feel you learned about yourself from writing this book?\n\nA: I loved doing this kind of writing. I’d never written anything so personal before, that had such an emotional charge for me. Through writing about her and her life, I was writing about me and my life, and reckoning with it—it was an incredible experience.",
null,
"I had spent my life trying to understand other people, and never written for other people where I made myself my subject. It was thrilling and fun.\n\nIn the piece for The New Yorker, I was trying to find the source of a quotation attributed to George Eliot: “It’s never too late to be what you might have been.” [It doesn’t sound like her;] it sounds like pablum to me. I could never find it. I wrote that piece as a way of asking, and answering in the negative, that question.\n\nI was in my early 40s, and realizing that it was too late to be certain things. I began the project in a slightly depressed spirit, but found writing it so heartening. She is so inspiring. The experience of doing it was really wonderful.\n\nI still don’t believe she said that, but I feel more hopeful and optimistic than when I began. I hope my book will give readers some of that sense of optimism and celebration.\n\nOne of the amazing things about Middlemarch is the melancholy note it ends on, of unachieved hopes. Dorothea doesn’t get to do what she had hoped to do, and contemporaries of George Eliot criticized her for not giving [Dorothea] a more triumphant conclusion, but her embrace of [the situation] is an inspiring though ultimately melancholy conclusion.\n\nI think it’s exactly the right ending; it’s exactly how life feels. There’s still value in messiness and half-achieved hopes. It’s the stuff of life, and it’s all we have.\n\nA: I’m in the very preliminary stages of figuring out an area I’m interested in. With this book, I spent a lot of time thinking, but when I sat down to write, I did it very quickly. Plus I’m busy; I have a job!\n\nA: The only thing that I hope is true is that I don’t think you need to have read Middlemarch to read my book. I haven’t not read Middlemarch and not written the book, but my profound hope is that the book will speak to people who love to read, and had an intense experience with books that aren’t Middlemarch."

"As Mosqueda noted, “cannabis is a booming industry in Seattle,” with more than 60 stores selling over $185 million worth of cannabis products in 2021 alone. According to data presented in the committee, the median sales per month for a single cannabis retail shop last year was nearly $485,000, while the most profitable location sold an estimated $12 million worth of products over the course of the entire year.\n\n“However, that wealth and access has not been equitable,” Mosqueda clarified.\n\nThe Washington State Liquor and Cannabis Board estimates that just 3% of Washington’s cannabis shops are majority Black owned, while Seattle doesn’t have any that fit that description. While former Sonics star Shawn Kemp is the namesake of a recently-opened shop in Seattle, he only owns a 5% stake in the business.\n\nMosqueda further pointed out that communities of color were disproportionately targeted for marijuana-related arrests prior to legalization, despite roughly equal levels of use among all racial demographics. After marijuana was legalized, “Black people were largely left out of ownership opportunities,” she noted.\n\nWe need reform, redistribution, and restoration. Cannabis workers have been on the frontline and should have access to greater training, upward mobility, and job protections. Cities around the country have worked on this issue and we can learn a lot from them! pic.twitter.com/1lgShcRtrw\n\nMosqueda hopes to address that by following the lead of major cities in California, many of which have programs focused on “cannabis equity funding, training for cannabis workers, and social equity licenses.”\n\nStudy: Seattle one of few cities where cannabis use higher than cigarettes\n\nIn San Francisco, newly-registered cannabis firms are required to submit a plan detailing their commitment toward diversity goals. Sacramento has “explicit hiring requirements” baked into an incubator program, mandating that 30% of a firm’s workforce be “comprised of equity-eligible employees.”\n\nFor Seattle, Mosqueda highlighted a handful of community priorities, including investments in “advancement, career growth and ownership opportunities for Black, Indigenous and People of Color in the cannabis industry,” as well as increased training, benefits, and protections for workers.\n\n“We need reform, redistribution, and restoration,” she proposed.\n\nMosqueda has yet to introduce specific legislation toward those goals, but expressed a hope to learn from other cities on the best way to move forward.\n\nLake Washington Windows & Doors SPONSORED — Fiberglass windows are an excellent choice for window replacement due to their fundamental strength and durability. There is no other type of window that lasts as long as fiberglass; so why go with anything else? Fiberglass windows are 8x stronger than vinyl, lower maintenance than wood, more thermally […]\nClose\n‘We need reform’: Seattle councilmember highlights need for cannabis equity"

It was meant to be scrapped once conditions returned to normal which has not happened due to cross border terrorism and corrupt local politics.\n\n370 limited the powers of Indian Parliament to enact laws that are applicable for J and K except for Defence, Foreign Affairs, Finance and Communications. It has been instrumental in delaying the complete integration of J and K into the union of India. The special status has fostered a sense of separateness that has been stoked by the Separatists in the Kashmir Valley.\nArticle 35A which was added through Presidential order in 1954 on the back of the powers granted by Article 370, has also been scrapped. 35A grants special powers to J and K state assembly to define permanent residents of the State and provide them special rights and previleges. This has meant for example that no one from outside J and K can buy property in State. This has dried up investment in the state completely.\n\n370 also empowered and emboldened self serving politicians in J and K to exploit the separatist mindset to remain in power and benefit from the same. Now with the scrapping of Articles 35A and 370, alienation of the State will be replaced by complete integration with Union of India. Investment, peace, security and development will follow this historic decision by GOI which has the support of people of India. As Shyama Prasad Mukherjee who died mysteriously in Kashmir in 1953 said while opposing 370, we cannot have two Heads of State, two Constitutions and two assemblies in One Nation. Now with scrapping of 35A and 370, J and K is fully integrated with India and we are truly one Nation in letter and spirit.\n\nRSS congratulates the Central Government on a historic decision",

"Introduced at the height of the muscle-car era, the first-generation Javelin was a remarkable car from the American Motors Corporation, a firm that was feeling pressure to keep up with the volume and cost structure of the Big Three U.S. car manufacturers. The introduction of the model was well received by the automotive press with “Motor Trend” magazine putting the Javelin at the top of the \"sports-personal\" category in its annual \"Car of the Year\" issue, saying it was \"the most significant achievement for an all-new car\" and \"the most notable new entry in [its] class.”\n\nThe Javelin would go on to accomplish a multitude of racing and speed records and emerge triumphant as the overall Trans Am Series winner in 1971, 1972, and 1976—an astonishing feat for a product from the last of the independent motor car companies.\n\nCaptivated by the history of the Trans Am Series, the current owner had long searched for the ultimate performance Javelin. His journey ultimately took him to AMC collector and expert Ed Buscis of California. Interested in finding a car that had been vetted by objective standards, he was impressed that Buscis’ car had earned a “Gold” award in the Javelin “Stock” class in AMO-sanctioned judging, as well as earning the coveted Bud Truex award which (according to Buscis), was presented after this Javelin was chosen from more than 300 other judged AMC cars at a national event.\n\nBuscis’ Javelin was what many would consider the ultimate performance Javelin. It was ordered new as a 1969 “Big Bad Javelin,” with the optional performance automatic, “Go Package,” “Mod Package” and SST Trim package. The combination of these four option packages put this car in the rarest of rare among any Javelin or AMC peers. Furthermore, it’s black side-graphic C-Stripe (which is either loved or hated by AMC enthusiast) was a factory delete, providing a clean visually appealing image of the final product.\n\nPowered by AMC’s ultimate power plant (introduced in mid-1968 as the 390-cubic-inch engine), its impressive 315 horsepower and 425 lb-ft of torque were capable of sending the Javelin from 0 to 60 miles per hour in the 7-second range, an impressive result for a car of the era. In addition to the 390 engine, the Go Package featured power front disc brakes, heavy-duty suspension, twin-grip limited-slip differential, dual exhausts with chromed outlets, and Magnum 500-styled road wheels.\n\nThe Mod Package accentuated the cars “mean” image and consisted of a \"Craig Breedlove\" roof-mounted spoiler, simulated \"exhaust\" rocker trim moldings, and twin blacked-out air scoops on the hood. This car was also ordered in “Big Bad” paint scheme (three colors were offered new, consisting of either neon brilliant blue, orange or green). As a result of this paint option, the car came with matching front and rear painted bumpers, as well as two vertical rubber-faced painted bumper guards for the rear and a special bright lower grille molding for the front bumper. Finally, to top it off, the SST package was added to this vehicle which consisted of additional appearance and comfort items that included reclining front seat backs, simulated wood-grain door panel trim, a sports-style steering wheel. Additional options include with power steering, power brakes, factory AM/eight-track sound system and a heavy-duty Borg Warner M-12 automatic transmission. Read More\n\nThe car’s early California history was well-known by Buscis and its excellent condition at the time is documented in photos prior to his purchase, which show the car with its original engine and options all intact, just as they are today. Desiring the highest level of quality, after his purchase, Mr. Buscis chose to take an already excellent example and perform a full disassembly, paint work, and rebuild the drivetrain and suspension and fully detail the entire car. His efforts were validated by the car garnering the aforementioned awards in the strictest competition.\n\nAfter deciphering it was the best available car of its type, the current owner purchased the car from Buscis in late 2005. Since that time the owner has further researched, authenticated and continually improved multiple items on the car. Initially unhappy with the interior, it was completely replaced and all new carpeting, seat covers and more were installed. At the same time new factory-original side glass was added. To his amazement, the car's true value became even more evident to the current owner with the interior removed. The inside of both doors and both rear quarter areas showed no signs of ever having been rusted or repaired—all virgin factory sheet metal. The original floors were pristine, still bearing their original factory paint, with absolutely no signs of accident damage or panel replacement anywhere on the entire car. Given that these cars were prone to rust in various areas, this California-car is “good to the bones.”\n\nIf one were to seek the ultimate “end of an era” AMC muscle car, it would be very difficult to find a better candidate than this authentic “Big Bad Javelin” with its multitude of options. The car’s California history, original engine and drivetrain and aggressive look present a rare find in the world of AMC muscle cars. Hide"

"The Nintendo NX name is no more as Nintendo officially unveiled its next console, the hybrid Nintendo Switch.\n\nAs had been rumoured for months, the Switch is a hybrid portable and home console that will allow you to play the same games at home and on the go with a near seamless switch from the Switch dock to portable ready.\n\nEND_OF_DOCUMENT_TOKEN_TO_BE_REPLACED\n\nPeople have been speculating and reporting about the upcoming Nintendo NX for months now but a new report by Eurogamer seems to bring the NX into focus before its targeted launch of March 2017. Their report says that the NX will be a powerful portable console that can also serve as a home console by connecting it to your TV and detaching the controllers from the mobile unit.\n\nEND_OF_DOCUMENT_TOKEN_TO_BE_REPLACED\n\nOur long national nightmare is finally over. Pokemon Go has officially launched in Canada and you’ll be dodging people trying to catch ’em all while driving in your car, walking down the sidewalk or even in your own home. While Nintendo, Niantic and Game Freak won’t do much anything to celebrate this monumental occasion, artist Darren Calvert has some pretty good ideas with this gallery of Canadian Pokemon. Tell me that you wouldn’t want to catch a Newfie or Bobndug.\n\nEND_OF_DOCUMENT_TOKEN_TO_BE_REPLACED",

"It might not be out worldwide yet and revenue totals haven’t been tallied but Pokemon Go is already a smash hit for Nintendo. In the two business days since Nintendo’s latest mobile game was launched, their stock has climbed over 30% and added $7.5 billion to the value of Nintendo.\n\nEND_OF_DOCUMENT_TOKEN_TO_BE_REPLACED\n\nNintendo was the last company to do their E3 presentation. This year, they eschewed from using their Nintendo Direct presentation format and instead did a Nintendo Treehouse let’s stream type of format. The change in format seems to be a result of Nintendo not having too much to show at the moment apart from new Legend of Zelda and Pokemon games.\n\nEND_OF_DOCUMENT_TOKEN_TO_BE_REPLACED\n\nNintendo Rumoured to be Funding Beyond Good and Evil Sequel",

"It’s not unusual to see console manufacturers step in to bail out third-party publishers to help them make games that wouldn’t otherwise be made. In the last year, we have seen Sony step in to fund Street Fighter V while Microsoft stepped in to continue Lara Croft’s adventure in Rise of the Tomb Raider.\n\nRumours suggest that Nintendo is getting in on that act. A source for accurate games industry news leaked documents to the press that indicates that Nintendo is throwing its money on a sequel to Beyond Good and Evil.\n\nEND_OF_DOCUMENT_TOKEN_TO_BE_REPLACED\n\nTags: Beyond Good and Evil 2, Business of Gaming, Nintendo, Ubisoft\n\nIt’s time to end the day with a look at the video game trailers from the week that was in the Game Trailers Roundup. There was a Nintendo Direct last week which means that we have five Nintendo trailers of the twelve in this week’s roundup. We have launch trailers, announcement trailers and Codemasters even put together a trailer of community footage for Dirt Rally.\n\nEND_OF_DOCUMENT_TOKEN_TO_BE_REPLACED\n\nNintendo’s next generation console, codenamed the NX, might be closer than you think based on recent rumours. Over the last week, there have been rumours about everything from what form the NX will take, how much it will cost, when we might see it, how powerful it will be and what Nintendo is planning to put on it.\n\nEND_OF_DOCUMENT_TOKEN_TO_BE_REPLACED\n\nIt’s probably ever so slightly late for us to have a best and worst or winners and losers of E3 post but it’s my hobbie so I’m going to do it a bit late to be of much use to anyone. Well, that’s not strictly true. The shortest wait until a major game from E3 comes out is some three months so that means that there is plenty of time for us to reflect on the state of gaming in the wake of the biggest games industry show of 2015.\n\nEND_OF_DOCUMENT_TOKEN_TO_BE_REPLACED",
null,
"As we have come to expect from Nintendo, their E3 presentation focused largely on first-party titles and franchises. While a number of the announced games for the Wii U were previously announced, the 3DS got all of the big surprises and reveals. Nintendo’s handheld got some new entries in a number of Nintendo’s legendary franchises including The Legend of Zeldo, Mario, Metroid and Animal Crossing. While Nintendo might have been lacking the overall punch on console that Sony and Microsoft had, fans should still be happy with what they saw."

"If you’re someone that never played a Ghost Recon game before then you’re probably don’t know what to expect. The only game that Ghost Recon can be compared with is the Far Cry series, which happens to be made by Ubisoft. They have similar elements in the game, like capturing camps from enemies and so on. However, they are a lot of improvement to make in this game. Overall, ghost recon wildlands worth it?\n\nIn the game trailers, Ubisoft heavily claims that the game has a massive map. Also, the game has quality tactical AI teams that will assist you on different approaches to missions. If you want to go loud then your team AI will go loud or stealth. These claims are actually very accurate which makes this game impressive.\n\nThe downside of the game is storytelling. The game does have an interesting plot about cartels. With all those stories about real life cartels like Chapo crazy things the goes on, it might make me be a part and feel what is like to be in those situations. However, the acting and the methods implemented to tell the story is not great.\n\nGhost Recon Wildlands at its core is a tactical 4 player game. The South American country, Bolivia, has been taken over a powerful cartel know as Santa Blanca cartel lead by the top boss El Sueno. The cartel is so massive that is had taken over the authorities and the government. The cartel has established a ruthless regime and your job is simply destabilized it and destroy it.\n\nThe game is well represented and it those give it motivate you to keep going. With so many missions, side mission, collectibles, and more thing, the game will keep you busy for good while. If you have played the latest Far Cry games, you would know what I mean.\n\nWhen the Ghost Recon was released, it had a lot of visual problems, as frame rate drops here and there. The map is massive and crammed with a lot of things which puts the console or PC resources under siege.\n\nUbisoft has released a lot of updates attempting to deal with this issue and I believe too they don’t great jobs as I see little problems with frame rate dropping lately.\n\nLike I mentioned before if you’re into games that with a lot of content like convoy missions, outpost capturing and map unlocking that this a game for you. Otherwise, I wouldn’t recommend it.\n\nGhost Recon Wildlands (Amazon) is 4 men tactical based. You can have your friends join or just play so with A.I teammates. I played mostly solo with the AI teammates and they are actually great. They are not so dumb AI like seen other games doing weird stuff.\n\nThat was important because in a stealth tactical mission approach, it important to stay hidden and AI running around and getting, of course, would compromise the mission. So noticeable how Ubisoft spend a lot of resources on AI because they are really good.\n\nThe AIs do have couple flaws as at times they won’t be able to guard someone. However, if you manage to utilize them as much as you can, you can manage some overpowered stuff. When attacking an outpost, if you want to snip, then you can use the sync shot system which could turn out to be very effective.\n\nYou can go loud with AI too. The AI teammates have a literally perfect aim. So that means putting them into a tank and you literal going to rush the mission and can just watch and do nothing. Yes, you can cheese your way out of this game.\n\nThe game has a massive world with a lot of unlocking. From, capturing an outpost, weapons unlocking, skill trees, gathering resource and defeating a lot of bosses is what the game is mainly about. This will keep you busy for a while if you attempting to do all these things.\n\nHowever, the downside to that is it can become very repetitive. That can be a problem because it can become predictable and that becomes boring as you progress. Ubisoft response to that is that the game allows you to take different approaches to missions. You decide what to do and the variations are many.\n\nThe gunplay feels very good, not the greatest but it’s manageable. There is a lot of weapons unlocking. The variety of weapon customization is immense and useful. You can customize your weapon according to the approaches of your missions.\n\nShould you get Ghost Recon Wildlands?\n\nGhost Recon Wildlands(Amazon) won’t blow your mind with new mechanics and masterpiece storytelling. In fact, there is nothing that is really unique. The game looks like it took things from other games and put them together.\n\nHowever, if you’re like me, I never played Ghost Recon for masterpiece storytelling and looking on how to kill someone different fashion, in a military approach I mean. The game is heavily criticized for that and it is simply expecting too much out a series that never focused to have a strong story.\n\nIf you’re a casual gamer that like RPG style games then I really recommended. However, if you’re a hardcore game looking a for a unique experience and getting your brain blown then you won’t find that here. It’s best to skip this game.\n\nTell us what you think about the game in the comments below. Did you like or dislike it?",

"It is a real shame that ACAS is falling down in its main job: supporting people who have been unfairly treated by their employers.\n\nWe’ve always had a lot of contact on our clients’ behalf with ACAS at the Early Conciliation level (the month before they start an official tribunal).\n\nTheir conciliators have always only been a messenger, without legal power and no jurisdiction to decide who is “right”.\n\nGenerally they have been very realistic and informed and helpful in the process.\n\nBut that was before Coronavirus.\n\nIn the past two months, we’ve had to deal with two nightmare “conciliators” who had no idea about the law or how to do their job.\n\nThe first one felt that it was unfair (!) that an employee had been fired after 4 months service without following a full disciplinary process.\n\nAs you probably know, under 2 years there is no protection from unfair dismissal for employees. And we have in our contracts and handbook that we will not be using the disciplinary process on staff under 2 years.\n\nBut the ACAS conciliator had not heard of it, telling me bluntly, “You are not allowed to do that!”.\n\nI advised her to check her facts. Making value judgements in that sort of position, with no legal basis whatsoever, truly is shocking, not least because most employers would not have the legal background to know that the conciliator was talking out of their proverbial.\n\nAnd then an even worse one cropped up.\n\nWe were advising an employee who had been made redundant from a big steel company after 20 years’ service.\n\nShe’d gone through the first redundancy process in April last year. She’d applied for the remaining jobs on offer but been told by her line manager (very unprofessionally), that she shouldn’t apply because her job was safe.\n\nWhich it was, at that point, so she withdrew her application\n\nThe second redundancy process ended in October last year. This time she was made redundant and then realised afterwards, from talking to her colleagues still at work, that the process had been a sham.\n\nSo she started Early Conciliation.\n\nBearing in mind that very few employees are in a good place when they start this process, the conciliator she spoke to was rude and professionally negligent, and from this moment forward I will refer to them as [insert expletive of your choice].\n\nClaire said that she had not been offered all the jobs available in the process and the [insert expletive of your choice] conciliator said that the company did not need to do that.\n\nInstead, it was apparently Claire’s responsibility to look on the company website to see what jobs were being advertised, and then apply for them.\n\nThe company said that they did not need to offer her all the positions anyway because she had withdrawn from the first redundancy process (after her manager told her to) so she obviously wasn’t interested in anything they had to offer in the second process.\n\nClaire was asked by the [insert expletive of your choice] conciliator what she would like as an outcome.\n\nThe penalty for unfair dismissal is a year’s pay plus a 25% uplift. So that is what she asked for.\n\nThen came the worst value judgement statement I have ever heard from an ACAS conciliator:\n\n“Oh you will never get that. 2 or 3 months at the most. You do know that it is not the employer’s job to pay your bills while you sit at home and drink coffee and watch TV, don’t you?”!\n\nLeaving aside that that is exactly what a sizable proportion of the working population is doing under furlough, the statement is ABSOLUTELY legally wrong and unprofessional.\n\nClaire was in tears when she spoke to me about it. She’d been made to feel that she had no hope, that she was being over-emotional, demanding and wasting ACAS’ time.\n\nI reassured her that she did have a case, that the conciliator was a [insert expletive of your choice], and that the next step was a full tribunal claim.\n\nMy theory on these behaviours?\n\nACAS is supposed to be neutral and fact based.\n\nUnfortunately, it seems that their professionalism is another casualty of the pandemic.\n\nIf you get an Early Conciliation claim, call us so that you cannot be treated as horrendously in your dealings with ACAS.",

"Roger Olson wrote a great article a couple of days ago entitled Why (High) Calvinism Is Impossible. He points out that there is no way to understand God as “good” while also believing in double predestination. The idea that God predestines some to heaven and a vast majority to hell for his “glory” apart from any choices a person may make is diabolical. And as Wesley points, whatever Romans 9 means, it cannot mean that. Olson states:\n\nEvery devout, evangelical Christian believer I have ever met or heard of approaches Bible reading and study (including exegesis) with the assumption that the Bible is true (even if not strictly inerrant)—that it does not misidentify God and God’s will for us. But built into that assumption is that God, the Bible’s author (by inspiration of the human authors) is good (which is why he is trustworthy and cannot deceive). But belief that God “designs, foreordains, and governs” hell for the reprobate who are chosen by God for hell for his glory without regard to any truly free choices they make undermines belief in God’s goodness. So does belief that God “passes over” some he could easily save (because election to salvation is unconditional and saving grace is irresistible), damning them to hell, for his glory.\n\nThere is no conceivable analogous human behavior that we would call “good.” The very concept of “good” rules out such behavior. (To say nothing of Jesus’ own goodness and the New Testament’s commands for us to love our enemies and do good to them.)\n\nGreg has written a great deal on interpreting Romans 9. Here’s a short snippet from one of his posts on this topic:\n\nFinally, while we’re talking about these things, Benjamin L. Corey recently posted a blog entitled 5 Reasons Why Calvinism Makes Me Want to Gouge My Eyes Out. He sums up his feelings about double predestination a bit more personally.\n\nCase in point: if I get to heaven and find out that my beautiful daughter Johanna is in hell and that she’s in hell because God chose her before the foundations of the world to burn for all eternity, I won’t be able to worship him in good conscience. Perhaps I would bow down out of total fear, but I would NOT worship him because he was holy, beautiful, and “all together wonderful” as Boyd often describes him. Instead, I would bow down because he would be a sick and twisted god who scared the crap out of me.",

"Nagasaki, on the far western edge of Japan's main islands, is known mostly for its main city. The city of Nagasaki was the only port city that remained open during Japan's centuries of isolation, allowing it to develop a distinctive food culture and architectural sights. But there's much more to see in the city's environs as well - beautiful seashores and islands, traditional townscapes, and hot springs galore! If you're spending a few days in Nagasaki, then you should consider some of these day trips to get a fuller image of Japan's history and nature.\n\n1. Shimabara: Jump Back to the Samurai Era\n\nToday in Shimabara, you can still find remnants of life in the Edo Period (1603-1867): the castle has been restored to its original majestic state, and nearby, a group of restored samurai houses are fully open to the public and allow you to get a glimpse into what daily life was like in the 17th century. Try on some samurai armor while you're at the castle!\n\nThe city of Shimabara is charming beyond just its samurai quarter. It is known as a \"city of water\" because of the many springs that dot the city, and you can find carp swimming about in little aqueducts that line the roads as well as in ponds like in the Shimeiso garden. Don't miss out on the local delicacies like \"kanzarashi,\" which are dumplings served in a honey-based syrup, and \"guzoni,\" a stew with large rice cakes.\n\nThe name Shimabara has also been etched in history due to the 1637 - 1638 Shimabara Rebellion, when a group of overtaxed peasants and persecuted Christians took up arms against the local lord and attacked, and Shimabara Castle was one of the battle locations.\n\nShimabara is an hour and a half from Nagasaki City by car and slightly more by train. The Shimabara Railway may run relatively infrequently, but it runs right along the coastline and offers a beautiful sight of the sea. One popular activity is to get off at Omisaki Station (said to be the station that's closest to the sea in all of Japan), write a wish on a yellow handkerchief (as yellow is the railroad's trademark color), and tie it to the station railing!\n\nFor a first-person tour description of Shimabara's attractions, check out this article!\n\n2. Unzen Onsen: A Hot Spring in the Mountains\n\nRight next door to Shimabara is Unzen, a hot spring resort and national park. Unzen-Amakusa National Park was the first-ever national park in Japan, designated in 1934, and it later became Japan's first Global Geopark.\n\nThe hot springs at Unzen go by the name Unzen Jigoku (the \"Hells of Unzen\") because of the hot spring area's boiling water and volcanic gases billowing straight out of the ground. But despite the unpleasant name, it has been quite popular internationally as a summer resort, and indeed it is the sulfuric content in the water that is said to be beneficial to your skin! There are a few experiences you should enjoy while you are there, like snacking on some onsen-steamed eggs, warming your feet on the geothermal heat at the \"foot steam,\" and trying the lemonade that has been an Unzen staple since its early days as a resort as it is made using local spring water and lemons from the Shimabara Peninsula.\n\nBefore or after indulging in a relaxing soak, you should see the beautiful natural vistas that the Unzen area offers. The most popular spot is the Nita Pass, which is almost 1,100 meters above sea level and situated between two mountain peaks, and from which you can gaze down upon the mountain slopes. The fall foliage colours are particularly beautiful, while springtime sees pink azaleas in full bloom. If you’re visiting in fall, make sure also to visit the Misojien Garden, whose evening illuminations and bright-red foliage are particularly wonderful!\n\n3. Arita: A Ceramic Town That Once Defined Japan\n\nDuring the Edo Period, even as the central government banned international trade, trade with the Dutch and Chinese were still permitted from some locations, which is how porcelain from Saga Prefecture was exported overseas and became a sensation in Europe under the name \"Imari ware.\" It got that name because it was exported to Nagasaki from the port city of Imari; much of the actual production happened in neighboring Arita. Arita-Imari ware began as blue designs on white backgrounds, and is still associated with that color scheme. However, the designs later became more colorful and more intricate, fueling Imari ware's popularity overseas.\n\nArita is in Saga Prefecture but is easily reachable from Nagasaki (1 hr 10 min by car, 2 hrs by train). It's a traditional small town that definitely defines itself by its ceramic heritage. You should definitely visit the Tozan Shrine, where the torii gate, lanterns, and guardian lions are all made of ceramics, and have a meal using Arita ware tableware at Gallery Arita, a beautiful cafe not far from Arita Station.\n\nThe most accessible way of taking in the ceramics experience is by visiting Arita Porcelain Park, a \"porcelain amusement park\" that takes the form of a German town and palace. In addition to food, shopping, and plenty of ceramics pieces to admire, there is also an active kiln where you can experience spinning a lathe, moulding pieces by hand, or drawing designs.\n\nFor a more off-the-beaten-path approach, you can visit Okawachiyama village. Dozens of centuries-old ceramics-making kilns are located in this village in the mountains. Walk amongst its winding paths, admire the various porcelain decorations throughout the town, and peek through the various store windows. Here as well, you can experience lathes and designing first-hand, as well as tour an active factory.\n\nYou can read a first-person review of Imari and Arita in this article (Day 2).\n\n4. Sasebo and a Coastline Speckled With Islands\n\nDrive along the Pacific coast to the northwest of Nagasaki City and you will come across the Kujuku Islands (literally meaning “99 islands”, though there are close to 200 of them). This cluster of verdant islands look fantastic against the backdrop of the blue ocean and sky, as if land and sea are colliding and interweaving with each other.\n\nThe Tenkaiho Observatory is a must-visit, as it allows you to soak in the whole scenery in one glance, accompanied by colourful flowers in certain months. To get closer to the islands, stop by the Pearl Sea Resort: even if the family-friendly aquarium and shopping center don’t interest you, the resort also includes the docks where you can board a pleasure cruise or ferry, or rent a canoe or kayak to explore the waters on your own.\n\nWithin a close distance is the downtown of Sasebo, Nagasaki’s second-largest city. Due to its American naval presence, the city has adopted American burger culture as its own! The \"Sasebo Burger\" always includes bacon and egg in addition to the patty, and some of the eateries have adopted American diner aesthetics as well. Make sure to see the stunning Miura Catholic Church by Sasebo Station before you leave.\n\n5. Huis ten Bosch: An Extravagant Homage to the Dutch Life\n\nBecause of their centuries-long special trading relationship, Nagasaki has a close affinity with the Netherlands. In 1992, in celebration of this relationship, an amusement park called Huis ten Bosch (\"House in the Woods,\" named after a Dutch royal palace) opened an hour and a half from Nagasaki, an elaborate recreation of a neighborhood and harbor in a Dutch architectural style.\n\nOf course, for European tourists this wouldn't be a very interesting destination, although they might still be amused by the concept and astonished by its scale and extravagance. While Huis ten Bosch's exterior is an unassuming brick and stone, inside is every type of attraction under the sun, including a waterpark, robots, virtual-reality exhibits, bouncy castles, roller coasters, canal boats, giant movie projections, a \"teddy bear kingdom,\" and live entertainment. More bookish visitors would appreciate the art galleries and porcelain gallery. August evenings are closed out by fireworks displays, while during the winter season it hosts Japan's largest illumination display, with 13 million lights!\n\nThe Goto Islands are a cluster of small, sunny islands to the west of Nagasaki. They provide the perfect way to spend a day fully secluded from modern life: go swimming at the Takahama Beach, try your hand at stand-up paddleboarding or water scooters at the Ohama Beach, or hike up Mt. Onidake and admire the night sky from the observatory at the summit.\n\nBut these islands also contain a valuable history: they are home to four of the churches that are on the UNESCO World Heritage Registry as \"Hidden Christian Sites of the Nagasaki Region.\" During the Edo Period, even as Christianity was officially forbidden by the central government under punishment of death, groups of \"hidden Christians\" remained in these outlying islands and quietly kept the faith alive for two centuries. When the prohibition was lifted as Japan modernized, these Christian communities built several opulent churches that serve as a testament to their faith and perserverance. If you're visiting the main island of Fukue, you should visit the Dozaki Church, which is now a museum, or the startlingly white Mizunoura Catholic Church.\n\nOther sights to add to your itinerary include Osezaki Lighthouse and the nearby Praying Goddess Statue. In terms of food, you can't miss out on Goto Udon, made from the best of the island's seafood and vegetables. Glamping is an option for those who are looking for a longer stay.\n\nYou can get to the main island of Fukue from Nagasaki by ferry (3 hrs 10 mins), jetfoil (1 hr 30 mins) or plane (30 mins). Once you're there, rent-a-car is the most flexible way of getting around.\n\nExplore Nagasaki and its Charming Surroundings\n\nAs you can see, Nagasaki Prefecture offers a truly unique mix of sights and cultures - American food and Dutch architecture; cathedrals that stand over traditional Japanese townscapes. Make sure to catch as much of it as you can while you're there!\n\nNagasaki isn't the only prefecture in Kyushu soaked in history and natural beauty! Be sure to explore the rest of Kyushu to see all the charming places that are testaments to the natural and historic beauty of Japan!"

"In a bid to raise $1.7 million to meet a loan commitment, the Music Hall Center for the Performing Arts in downtown Detroit will host a benefit concert featuring funk legend Chaka Khan among other funk and gospel artists next month.\n\nThe Feb. 12 concert will feature Michael Cooper of Con Funk Shun, Jon Barfield, Michael Mindingall, Maurissa Rose, and Ashton and Rivonne Moore. It will serve as the launch of a 5-year capital campaign seeking to eliminate $7 million in debt, says Vincent Paul, president and artistic director of the Music Hall Center.\n\n“Detroit has this legacy in music, so it shouldn’t come as a surprise that we launch our capital campaign with a night of music,” Paul says.\n\nPaul says the Music Hall was in danger of defaulting on debts accrued from the 2008 financial crisis. He says the Music Hall needs to raise $1.7 million by April 30 to avoid default. About $930,000 has been raised to date. The $7 million capital campaign seeks to ensure building and operation costs are covered for “decades” to come, he says.\n\nA variety of metro Detroit businesses and organizations have donated to the Music Hall, including a $50,000 pledge from Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan. The UAW, Ford, and the Detroit Medical Center have also contributed. Paul says about 150 individuals have donated an average of $100 each.\n\n“It’s nice to know that our community impact is at an all-time high,” he says.\n\nMusic Hall is accepting donations via PayPal. Tickets for the Feb. 12 Chaka Khan concert start at around $60.​"

"Foreign Ministers from Egypt, Ethiopia and Sudan will meet today in Cairo to discuss the filling and operation of the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD).\n\nThe GERD—being constructed on the Blue Nile River—aims to generate some 6.45 GW of power at a cost of $4 billion and be completed by 2023.\n\nEgypt—downstream of the Blue Nile—has opposed the project, citing a water loss of 55 billion cubic metres. Cairo claims the project will affect its water-intensive crop cultivation. Sudan—the only other Blue Nile downstream nation—counters that Egypt’s figures are overstated.\n\nIn March 2015, the countries signed an agreement that set out how to mitigate the effect of the dam’s construction on downstream countries. Towards this, Egypt handed in a technical report to Ethiopia on August 2, which officially recommended that the dam filling be protracted over seven years to minimise water loss. Ethiopia wants to do so within three years.\n\nWhile Egypt and Ethiopia seem unlikely to agree on the filling period in the near future, they may work towards a consensus before the dam starts producing electricity in 15 months."

"Cape Town - After years of complaints and talk of plans to restore the Table View beachfront, the City was finally starting with the dune rehabilitation project that would see derelict public amenities and coastal infrastructure, buried by the mobile dune system, demolished.\n\nThe City was starting the project, which formed part of a longer-term initiative to rehabilitate, revitalise and maintain the Table View beachfront next week. Residents said it was about time as the site had been in terrible condition for at least 15 years.\n\nSpatial Planning and Environment Mayco member Eddie Andrews said: “Unfortunately, over the past 15 years or so, the public amenities and coastal infrastructure have deteriorated due to the impact of the local environment.\n\n“The beach is not as pristine as it used to be, the dune cordon has deteriorated and lost its ability to protect the surrounding infrastructure from windblown sand, and the parking facilities, beach access, and services such as the stormwater infrastructure are in urgent need of repairs and replacement.”\n\nTable View councillor Joy Solomon said residents had been concerned with the dilapidation and general neglect due to the advancing migrating dunes, which swallowed ablution blocks, parking lots and the street lights.\n\nGreater Table View Action Forum chairperson Karen Davis said residents had hopes for this project but remained sceptical as this was done before and not maintained.\n\n“The fact that our beaches are in a terrible state is a huge concern and it affects the economy as visitors are deterred from coming to our area. Safety and security is also a big concern currently,” she said.\n\n“Why has it taken 15 years to initiate a project that is seemingly going to be drawn out for an extended period. The Table View beachfront should have been kept pristine for its tourism, business development, property value potential.\n\n“We are cognisant that other areas also need developing, but taking 15 years to rehabilitate and maintain this area is shocking,” she said.\n\nAndrews said the rehabilitation would take about 18 to 20 months. The full upgrade would include a new walkway along the coast, parking and ablution facilities, and would be complete by mid-2025.\n\n“We are starting off with the dune project as this is the most cost-effective and pragmatic approach to protect and invest in rehabilitating ecosystems and ecological infrastructure,” he said."

"Think Small. That’s the motto for this column as I take a larger look at the teams still trying to make a name for themselves in the Cup Series despite fewer resources and a far more difficult mountain to climb.\n\nWriter’s Note: What follows is another fresh look for this column, one I expect to stick with. There are some really great stories and great people on the back half of the garage, and this is the place to find them, mixed with a little commentary, a little race analysis, and a little fun.\n\nTop of the Class: Chicago\n\nRyan Blaney and his Wood Brothers team played strategy perfectly on Sunday. Blaney had a top-10 car, but a gamble on the final caution gave him a top-5 finish. While Blaney missed the Chase this season, strategy calls like the one his team made, when they pay off, are the kind of thing that will only see this team get better. AJ Allmendinger also had a strong race at Chicago, finishing 17th. Top 20s are a big step for this team, and they’ve been able to get them fairly consistently this year. Finally, Clint Bowyer has been frustrated with his HScott Motorsports team at times this year as he’s used to top equipment, but Bowyer has done a credible job of helping the team improve, and he should be proud of what he has accomplished, all things considered.\n\nPassing Grades\nFinishing in the 20s this week were Ty Dillon (who filled in for Regan Smith in the Tommy Baldwin Racing No. 7), Chris Buescher, and Landon Cassill. While Buescher and Cassill might have been capable of finishing five spots higher, they had solid, drama-free runs, just nothing to write home about. Matt DiBenedetto had an OK if uninspired day in 30th. For him, just staying out of trouble and having a smooth race was important, and he did do that. Michael Annett, in 33rd, finished about where expected.\n\nNeeds Improvement\nBottom of the barrel this week was Joey Gase driving for Go FAS Racing. To be fair, Gase lacks experience, and the team has struggled all season regardless, but they need to stick with one driver. Jeffrey Earnhardt has done a decent job for them, and he’s a thorough communicator, which the team needs right now. It might be the best move for all involved to commit to Earnhardt. Michael McDowell had what has become an uncharacteristically poor finish this week, thanks to a blown tire that really doesn’t reflect his performance at Chicago. It happens, and it shows how far this team has come that what was a weekly occurrence last year will leave them grumbling about bad luck in 2016. David Ragan also had some bad luck that led to a 35th-place run that’s a little atypical for him. The flip side of bad luck is that you make your own luck and Casey Mears made his bed Sunday with not one, but two speeding penalties which cost him multiple laps. He had a better car than his 34th-plcae finish, but wasn’t able to capitalize. The No. 13 team has lost a step this year, and mistakes won’t help them get it back.\n\nFinally, Premium Motorsports, with drivers Reed Sorenson (39th) and Cole Whitt (36th), and The Motorsports Group with Josh Wise (38th) continued their struggles. The difference between their finishes and those of McDowell and Mears is that it’s hard to say they should be finishing higher than that. They need a lot of work going forward if they stay in the series; the addition of a couple teams with more money in the next few years will leave them without starting spots most weeks.\n\nNewsworthy\nThe biggest story of the week in this group was Ty Dillon helping out Regan Smith and driving the No. 7 while Smith was at home with his wife, Megan, as she delivered the couple’s second, a girl named Eliza Grace, who joins big brother Rhett. Smith Tweeted about Eliza’s arrival on Sunday:\n\nThe two most beautiful girls I've ever laid my eyes on.\nWe welcomed Eliza Grace Smith to the world this afternoon. pic.twitter.com/l9xqpxNeJH\n\nCongratulations to the Smith family!\n\nSay Anything\n“With it being the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 400, we have Bebop on our Ford Fusion. He’s one of the bad guys — he’s a mutant warthog. And, sticking with the kids theme, we also have Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago on the car as well. Front Row Motorsports has worked with them in the past through Love’s Travel Stops, and they do amazing work with kids. So, we’re happy to have them on this cool-looking scheme at their home track.”-Landon Cassill on his Chicago paint scheme\n\nRough day for us. Sorry all the @chaseelliott fans out there. Nothing I could have done tire blew just before I got to turn 3 headed to pits\n\nhey… heck of a call on staying out. i was gonna say it was stupid if it didn't work but thats how i roll. great job by crew & Blaney P4\n\nBringing the 80's back. @SunocoRacing. Believe it or not the damn thing jams! pic.twitter.com/jkPpfzPclk\n\nThis column is great. The motorsport journalism in good ol’ Germany doesn’t cover the little guys in any way. And by the way – I love them …\n\nInteresting article. So the Woods Brothers are considered a small team to you but not Furniture Row? Gee all this one car team located in Denver Colorado did was win the race. What? Oh you are not counting Furniture Row as they have an alliance with Joe Gibbs? I see. But we’ll count the Woods Brothers even though they also have an alliance with a strong team as well. Yes that makes sense.\n\nOther than that its great for the small teams to be recognized. Too bad NASCAR doesn’t care about them\n\nWood Brothers Racing does not have a charter. This makes it small no matter what the alliance may be.\n\nGood point.\nWhat is the criteria for being considered a small team? Single car team? No charter? No alliance with other teams? Bottom 15 in points?\n\nSo Amy, what is the common thread that all these teams/drivers have in common to be covered in this Underdog/Little Guys column?\n\nIf I remember correctly, Furniture Row (#78) used to be included in this group but when they started being the top team in this group every week and they started competing for wins on a weekly basis they were not considered a “small” team anymore.\n\nHere is my determination of small teams, which appears in an earlier edition of this column:\n\n“What makes a small team? I’m frequently asked how to categorize NASCAR’s teams. I look at a couple of things when I make the list each spring: budget and performance. Small teams simply don’t have the budgets of the larger ones, even middle-tier organizations. They may have alliances with bigger teams, but that doesn’t mean everything gets handed to them; they still buy their own equipment, though they may buy it from bigger teams rather than building every piece from scratch. It’s not free, contrary to what some people may believe.\n\nWhile Wood Brothers Racing gets equipment from Team Penske, they still have to work within a much smaller budget. That’s the same for those who work with Richard Childress Racing; information is shared, parts and pieces are bought, but they’re ultimately in control of their own destiny. They have a lot less money to control it with and little-to-no factory support from the car manufacturers.\n\nFrom a performance aspect, for the most part, these are teams for whom a top 20 is a good week and a top 15 is a great one. Consistent finishes inside the top 20 are generally the mark of a mid-tier team, such as Chip Ganassi Racing and Richard Petty Motorsports. While the Nos. 21 and 47 are making their case to be elevated to that group, just as Furniture Row Racing elevated itself from small team status last year, you won’t see teams added or subtracted from the list midseason. It takes time to grow in the sport and to sustain that growth.”\n\nHere is the link to that column:https://frontstretch.com/2016/07/04/the-underdog-house-tracking-nascars-small-teams-from-daytona-to-kentucky/\n\nBill B\nReply to Amy Henderson\n\nOK. Thanks for the explanation."

"Notes on the Discovery of the Poweshiek Skipper",

"The Poet felt strangely nervous as he packed the nets and the jars in the back of the buggy. It should have been a pleasant task. After all, the poet loved the sunshine and warmth of the June morning that would remove the dew from the grasses and expose the colorful flowers. The air would smell so fresh and clean. Helen would be at her best—almost back to the picture of loveliness that he had married some 18 years earlier. Her sorrow would melt away as they chased butterflies on the prairie slope, and she would be happy for a time. Her focus would be on the mission at hand.\nThis was to be the third trip in as many weeks to find Helen’s butterfly. Helen suggested to the Poet that this butterfly did not live long as an adult, so to find it you had to be out in the prairie when it emerged. And then there was the move coming up—if they didn’t find it this year there would not be a second chance. They needed fresh specimens. The individuals Helen had collected were battered and damaged from their short lives and from the constant handling and observation of the specimens. One could describe the species from these, but there really needed to be more.\nSo instead of a relaxing morning out of doors collecting a few butterflies, followed by a picnic, it would become a frantic search for a small and somewhat inconspicuous butterfly. Failure to find it would result in deep disappointment.\nThey followed the road a few miles north of town. They came to a wooden gate which the Poet opened. Entering the enclosure, they closed the gate and unhitched the horse. They left their lunch in the buggy, and rode bareback, the Poet in back and Helen in front, holding the nets and jars, for about a quarter of a mile to the steep slope with the prairie pasture.\nThere was a deep cut through this pasture, at the bottom of which a brook spread itself broadly over the pebbles, and was then gathered into a narrow way between grassy banks, and glided into a pond in a field beyond, where the frogs sunned themselves all day, and croaked all night.\nHelen inspected the vegetation and slowly weaved the net back and forth across the short grasses before the Poet was off his horse and had tended to it. The Poet looked around, and immediately spotted a stunning Argynnis idalia, dark brown with brilliant silver glistening in the sun. It was working its way around Echinacea pallida, stepping over the spikes of the coneflower as it gathered nectar from the gaps between the spikes.\n\nA few Pyrameis huntera caught the Poet’s eye. Then a trio of Scudder’s dione. Scudder’s list of Iowa’s butterflies had been a wake-up call for Helen and the Poet. No one had collected more Iowa butterflies than they had, yet they had been slow to publish, and Scudder had beaten them to it.",
null,
"Chrysophanus dione was a new species, but they already had many in their collection. Scudder listed four species as new, out of forty six. They weren’t sure about the other three, but they had one that Scudder did not mention—a lovely Hesperian, dark brown with pale yellow hind wings with conspicuous white veins. They would name it Powesheik, after the county and the Indian chief they had both seen as children.\nHelen let out a yell. She had one. The Poet rushed to her side, ready to assist, but she already had it in the killing jar. The butterfly trembled in the jar—it would continue to tremble until its life force was gone and it would remain soft and pliable so it could be easily pinned.",
null,
"Then the search went on in earnest. More of the small butterflies were captured, along with Lycaena comyntus and Melitiva tharos, which were released. The Poet was starting to think the trip was a resounding success. He lost track of the numbers, but thought they had to be in the high twenties. When the last of the killing jars was readied, a sweep of the net came up with four individuals of the new species. He put them in the jar and watched them tremble. Then he felt a strange weakness, and looking up saw, near the brook, a figure of a man on a horse. Powesheik? But he felt the jar slip from his hands, and he had to look down to catch the jar. When he looked up again, he did not see the Indian, nor any sign that he had been there.\nHelen was happy, and satisfied that they had accomplished their task. She was nearly her old self as they carefully packed up the nets and the specimens and road back to the buggy. The Poet felt something strangely different. He felt a weariness mixed with panic and maybe a sense of impending doom. Was it the vision of Powesheik that so drastically changed his mood, or was it something else?\nIt was a nice day for a picnic, and Helen chatted happily as she laid out the blankets and prepared the meal—fresh bread, ham, and a handful of wild strawberries that Helen had picked after they left the prairie. The Poet’s mood had quieted—he was nearly calm, with just a hint of wariness. They packed up their things and left the enclosure.\nWhen they arrived back in Grinnell, Helen went right to work pinning the butterflies. They had already written the description, and with a few modifications had it submitted for publication. Over the next few days they finished packing for the move back east.\n\nNature photographer from central Iowa.\nView all posts by the roused bear →\nThis entry was posted in Uncategorized.

"September 3, 2010 (Campo) – The Cowboy Fire, which has burned 822 acres, was started by two illegal immigrants who were in distress, Cal-Fire reports.\n\n“They called C4, which is Mexico’s emergency dispatch system, and advised them that they had been lost for two days, were stranded, dehydrated, and were going to light a signal fire to attempt to get some help,” said Roxanne Provaznik, public information officer for Cal-Fire.\n\nThe information was relayed to the U.S. Border Patrol. CAL FIRE worked with Border Patrol agents to try and locate the two individuals, but were unsuccessful. Investigators from CAL FIRE and U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service determined that there was evidence near the area of origin of illegal aliens traveling through that area, which supports this report.\n\nThe map below showed the Cowboy Fire yesterday; the same site today has no new images available:",

"In the wake of GT Advanced Technologies’ bankruptcy filing, the company has been more than outspoken about the headaches it endured as a result of its its failed partnership with Apple.\n\nFrom calling its contract with Apple “oppressive and burdensome” to accusing Apple of engaging in “bait and switch” tactics, GTAT court filings have portrayed Apple as a morally devoid goliath who improperly used its power to lure in and effectively trick a naive GTAT into an overwhelmingly one-sided contract.\n\nBut as you might have guessed, there’s more than one side to this story.\n\nIn a thoroughly researched article for the The Wall Street Journal, Daisuke Wakabayashi details that many of GTAT’s problems resulted from operational ineptness and technical troubles which plagued the partnership from the very beginning.\n\nThe Apple-GT marriage was troubled from the start. GT hadn’t mass-produced sapphire before the Apple deal. The New Hampshire company’s first 578-pound cylinder of sapphire, made just days before the companies signed their contract, was flawed and unusable. GT hired hundreds of workers with little oversight; some bored employees were paid overtime to sweep floors repeatedly, while others played hooky.\n\nWhat’s more, the gargantuan sapphire boules GTAT assured Apple it could produce were often rife with problems, rendering many of them completely unusable. And with each boule reportedly costing upwards $20,000, not to mention scores of workers with no concrete work assignments enjoying unlimited overtime, GTAT soon found itself blowing through money at a rapid clip.\n\nManufacturing wasn’t the only problem. In August, one of the former workers said, GT discovered that 500 sapphire bricks were missing. A few hours later, workers learned that a manager had sent the bricks to recycling instead of shipping. Had they not been retrieved, the misfire would have cost GT hundreds of thousands of dollars.\n\nWhat’s particularly interesting is that Apple seemingly made a good faith effort to help out GTAT with its financial troubles, offering them US$100 million of the $139 million loan it was scheduled to hand over. Additionally, Apple said it was willing to pay more for the company’s sapphire than initially agreed. The Journal relays that a meeting between Apple and GTAT to discuss specific financial terms was set for October 7.\n\nOn October 6, GTAT filed for bankruptcy, catching Apple, by its own admission, by surprise.\n\nWhile the narrative of big bad Apple taking advantage of a smaller company certainly makes for a compelling headline, the reality is rather boring. GT Advanced was a sophisticated partner to the negotiations, undoubtedly equipped with a capable legal team of its own. The company wasn’t forced to sign on the dotted line with Apple. It did so willingly, with dollar signs in its eyes.\n\nIn short, GTAT made a calculated risk that could have paid off big time, but instead, went in the opposite direction.\n\nIs it Safe to Sell a Google Chromecast Device?\n\nAuthor Marc\nIn this week’s episode of the After On podcast, I interview Tim O’Reilly – one of the most original and influential thinkers in tech.

"Can the 3.8% unemployment rate tumble toward zero?\n\nThe unemployment rate fell to an 18-year low of 3.8% in May. It can probably slide some more. But to what?\n\nCan the 3.8% unemployment rate tumble toward zero?\n\nEmployers are using a new hiring philosophy to fill their vacancies.",
null,
"How low can unemployment go?\n\nBut first, before you get too excited, some perspective.\n\nA big reason unemployment dropped last month is the portion of Americans working or looking for jobs dipped to 62.7%. That share, known as the labor force participation rate, generally has been falling for years as Baby Boomers retire.\n\nAlso, many men ages 25 to 54 remain outside the workforce as a result of the opioid crisis and the loss of manufacturing and construction jobs during and after the recession of 2007-09.\n\nIn other words, many people aren’t officially considered unemployed because they’re not actively looking, although they really would like jobs.\n\n“You’re able to pull (the unemployment rate) down because you don’t have as many people participating,” says Diane Swonk, chief economist of Grant Thornton.\n\nMore: Vermont will pay you $10,000 to live there and work remotely\n\nBy contrast, the 3.8% unemployment rate in 2000 came when 67% of Americans ages 16 and older were working or looking for jobs. That means that even though lots of Americans were hunting for work, there were plenty of jobs available and fewer people languishing on the margins.\n\nThe difference between the two eras can be viewed through the prism of economic growth. The economy grew 2.3% in 2017 and may approach 3% this year, but that’s with big government tax cuts and increased spending that has swelled the federal deficit. The economy grew a robust 4.1% in 2000, when the government enjoyed a budget surplus.\n\nSo with all that, what could the rate dip to?\n\nSwonk believes unemployment will bottom out at about 3.5% by the end of the year.\n\nShe predicts the federal deficit — projected to reach $1 trillion by 2020 – will push up interest rates over the next year or two, dampening economic growth. And higher Trump administration tariffs on imports will likely fuel faster inflation and force the Federal Reserve to raise short-term rates more rapidly. Low unemployment also could force employers to raise wages and prices more sharply, further spurring Fed rate hikes. Any of those scenarios, she says, would crimp growth and lead to a recession by late 2019 or early 2020 that drives unemployment higher.\n\nDean Baker, co-founder of the Center for Economic and Policy Research, is more sanguine. He foresees unemployment falling to about 3.2% over the next year or so as Baby Boomer retirements shrink the pool of Americans looking for jobs. He thinks inflation will pick up but remain fairly tame as a result of long-term factors that are keeping a lid on wages and prices, such as e-commerce, the global economy and the decline of unions. That should allow the Fed to nudge up rates gradually and stave off recession in the near term, he says.\n\nYet as the labor market tightens further and wages climb, businesses are more likely to replace workers with automation or combine two jobs into one, Baker says. That could push unemployment higher or at least keep it from falling further.\n\nDavid Berson, chief economist at Nationwide, is even more bullish. He believes that by 2020, unemployment could slide below 3% for the first time since 1953.\n\n“I think the expansion could go on for a number of years,” he says.\n\nGoing with that optimistic outlook for a moment, could unemployment drift down to 2%? 1%? Zero?\n\nNot really. There’s always some level of unemployment after people leave jobs and before they land new ones, Baker says. And, he says, some workers who live in inner cities or rural areas simply can’t get to where the jobs are.\n\nFor the most part, very low unemployment is a good thing for the economy and society. It means more workers can find jobs and leave their current positions for better ones. And it should push average annual pay increases above 3% by the end of the year, economists say.\n\nFor companies, though, it means higher labor costs that narrow profit margins. And that may eventually coax them to replace some workers with machines. Lower profits also likely would hurt the stock market, curbing Americans’ wealth.\n\nAnd when unemployment gets historically low, some firms can't meet customer demand. “Some employers wouldn’t be able to get workers and could go out of business,” Baker says."

"NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER\nNAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY THE NEW YORK TIMES • NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE\n\"Pure catnip to fans of World War II thrillers and a lot of fun for everyone else.\" —Joseph Kanon, The Washington Post Book World\n\nThe \"brilliant and almost absurdly entertaining\" (Malcolm Gladwell, The New Yorker) true story of the most successful—and certainly the strangest—deception ever carried out in World War II, from the acclaimed author of The Spy and the Traitor.\nNear the end of World War II, two British naval officers came up with a brilliant and slightly mad scheme to mislead the Nazi armies about where the Allies would attack southern Europe. To carry out the plan, they would have to rely on the most unlikely of secret agents: a dead man.\n\nBen Macintyre's dazzling, critically acclaimed bestseller chronicles the extraordinary story of what happened after British officials planted this dead body—outfitted in a British military uniform with a briefcase containing false intelligence documents—in Nazi territory, and how this secret mission fooled Hitler into changing military positioning, paving the way for the Allies' drive to victory.",

"At a time when 49ers tight end George Kittle is openly flirting with Steelers receiver Antonio Brown, there’s another receiver who could be a more likely trade target for San Francisco.\n\nIf the Giants decide to move on from receiver Odell Beckham Jr., the 49ers could pursue him.\n\nThe 49ers considered it during that window last year when Beckham seemed to be available, and there’s already buzz this year that, if he’s available, the 49ers would be interested.\n\nAs recently explained, Beckham’s contract is very tradeable, with five years and $74 million remaining on the long-term deal signed last August. The Giants would have to absorb a $16 million cap charge (a post-June 1 trade would result in $4 million this year and $12 million in 2020), and they’d have to accept the fact that they will have paid him more than $21 million for 12 games in 2018.\n\nBut if the Giants decide it’s time to move on, it makes sense to write it off and avoid paying another $17 million in 2019. Especially if they can maximize their recovery on the trade market."

"Liam came to see us for anxiety and depression. When he initially came to see us he was really struggling with creating an inner environment where he could thrive.\n\nLiam had been struggling with bouts of depression for many years; always worrying about what others thought of him. Liam would generally describe himself as very sensitive and a massive over thinker. Anxiety had been a driver of his emotional well-being due to all the overthinking and catastrophising that was occurring.\n\nAnxiety continually impacted his thoughts about others and always looked for reassurance and validation from external sources. Liam felt that his way of being was to invest in everything and everyone but himself. This only led to state of living in survival, a fight-flight response.\n\nLiam started the Trauma protocol followed on by self esteem and confidence .\n\nLiam was very sceptical about the work and his journey and had continued questions all throughout which were most welcomed by his facilitator.\n\nIn the first three session Liam’s indicator’s improved drastically. Here is a snapshot from session 1 to session 4.\n\nLiam’s journey was an up and down one. Though, he could see how things were shifting for him; having a more peaceful mind set, not holding onto things as tight as he would have previously.\n\nRight up to session 12 Liam still carried an air of scepticism, despite seeing massive improvements. Liam commenced his journey with intensive sessions (4 per week) to gain a sense of stability. And, because things were changing for him, he struggled to accept and even trust what was occurring. Liam was an active participant in his journey and took responsibility for how he looked after himself, and what he engaged outside of the sessions.\n\nPrior to the end of the program Liam got himself onto the home maintenance program before starting the self-esteem and confidence.\n\nIt was here that Liam noticed the biggest difference. Liam felt a sense of sound mental health, But, he felt he was taken to a different level mentally with the self-esteem and confidence."

"If you follow Manifold Greatness on our Twitter account and our Facebook page, you already know that the celebration of the King James Bible this 400th anniversary year has taken some creative turns, in everything from drama, music, and art to crafts as ephemeral as flower arranging and scarecrow making.\n\nA quick round-up of some recent highlights reveals—in the last week alone—two new, live-theater productions based on the King James Bible, both in Oxford. A one-night performance at Merton College, University of Oxford, The Full 1611, used lines from every book of the KJB to fashion a 100-minute drama. An Oxford theater troupe, meanwhile, is staging Tales of King James, an original two-actor play, in St. Barnabas Church.\n\nOn Wednesday, the King James Bible Trust announced the winning new choral works for its King James Bible Composition Awards, out of eight finalist pieces—both to be aired June 19 on BBC Radio 3’s The Choir: “Out of the South Cometh the Whirlwind,” by Zachary Wadsworth and “The Mystery of Christ,” by Christopher Totney.\n\nIn the visual arts, a juried exhibition of modern mosaics on the theme of the King James Bible remains on view through May 30 at Lichfield Cathedral. (In the US, contemporary artist Mako Fujimura has produced a commissioned series of paintings in honor of the King James Bible 400th; they’ll be in the On Eagles’ Wings KJB exhibit, opening in July at New York’s Museum of Biblical Art.)\n\nAnd, as mentioned, some local crafts are responding to the anniversaryas well. A flower festival in Belfast this weekend marks the anniversary with floral displays evoking Bible verses. Nor is this the only KJB flower arranging this weekend alone; there’s another in Stoke Row. Last week’s Eastwood & Kimberley Advertiser even reported that this year’s scarecrow festival in Underwood included “biblical characters” made by residents “to mark the King James Bible’s 400th anniversary,” although a non-KJB George and the Dragon won the contest. You can see the slingshot-wielding David scarecrow here."

"H.E. Kuel Aguer , Governor of North Bhar el-gazal, whose has been at odd with his former boss who dominate the army and the state government(Photo: file)\n\nMarch 27, 2015(Nyamilepedia) — The recent development in Juba are the clear symptoms and indicators that all citizens are equally exposed to very high risks of their dear lives whether you support the government or not. If you observe careful the ongoing harassment, intimidation and threats against the poor citizens by the Killer Paul Malong Awan and his disciples, it’s easy to understand that citizens rights and freedoms are under attack and there is an urgent need for rescue mission, otherwise, all citizens will soon end up in exile or risk being killed, tortured, kidnapped, detained or even humiliated to the level of slavery by the totalitarian regime in Juba. The war is not only against the Nuer but anyone who oppose Malong, Kiir and Kuol Manyang, the uneducated vultures, who want everything for themselves but not their own children.\n\nThe innocent citizens are exposed to constants fear and physiological trauma of being killed or send to illegal detention centers without proper legal procedures for any good reasons. The people of South Sudan are led without vision and should learn that President Kiir has no vision for the people of South Sudan, not even the people of Gogrial, if so wished. Thus, a country led this greedy neanderthal will never develop even an inch of its beatiful and fertile soil under these illiterates, Salva Kiir and Malong Awan.\n\nThe President Killer Kiir’s only primary program is to destroy this country and can be summarized as follows;-\n\nWith all the above-mentioned facts, you can all understand that Salva Kiir’s daily program is to drink alcohol, abused young girls and listening to the tribal Dinka elders to develop strategies to cause great damage, not only to his physical capacity but also to thinking capability. Kiir’s lack of vision and program toward South Sudan has allowed the most notorious Killer Paul Malong Awan to imposed himself as Chief of General Staff and today became Prime Minister of the Republic of South Sudan with all executive powers and Salva Kiir is left with only ceremonial powers and his alcohol to be a full-time drinkard, abuser and exploiter of teenagers while the Dinka council of elders strategize genocides against innocent civilians and to enjoy the fun from the land grabbers and corrupt elements within his own tribesmen.\n\nThe Dinka Council of Elders’ overall objective is to design policies and strategies to make more money through killing of innocent South Sudanese citizens using Salva Kiir as the ladder for the deadly projects.\n\nThe citizens of South Sudan today witnessed the brutality and deadly side of Salva Kiir regime on innocent citizens who become victims of tribal elites and disciples of Gen Paul Malong .The Killer Paul Malong Awan today appointed the most notorious killers from Lake State namely (Marial Nuor and Marial Chinung) whose mission is to kill anyone opposing the King Paul Malong Awan in Juba.\n\nThe Governor of Northern Bhar el gazal has today became the victim and forced to under house arrest from Paul Malong Awan because he was trying to reform and make development in the State after long practices of corruption and mismanagement of government resources by Malong.\n\nThe Poor journalist Christopher Michael whose job is to interview government officials end up being kidnapped for interviewing H.E. Kuel Aguer and his whereabouts remain unknown, only Paul Malong Knows.\n\nGen James Hoth former Chief of General Staff and the respected Gen Mach Paul escaped for their dear lives after revealing the truth about Ethnic Cleansing against the innocent Nuer civilians in Juba by Malong and his cohort.\n\nGen Pieng Deng is under close supervision from the security agents loyal to Paul Malong Awan and his safety remain at very great risk.\n\nFinally, Comrade Agel Machar escaped for his dear life from the regime and ended up in the rebellion to rescue this country and its people from the ongoing mass killing and dictatorship under Salva Kiir.\n\nThe people of South Sudan should know from today that Salva Kiir is just a symbol of Dinka leadership and has no power to protect citizens from ongoing killing and disappearance in the hands of this notoriously self imposed Prime Minister. Kiir cannot afford to release H.E. Kuel Aguer, the Governor of Northern Bahr el ghazal from House arrest and his State his being ruled by Paul Malong in Juba. Kiir has no power to release political advisor, who over stayed at illegal detention center and Kiir will not be able to set free the poor journalists, who was kidnapped for no good reason and keep at illegal detention cells without proper legal procedures by Paul Malong Awan.\n\nThe question to all citizens is what is the future of this Country under the most notorious Killer Paul Malong Awan and Drunkard Kiir Mayardit?\n\nI believe the citizens of South Sudan, though under this terrible living condition, are still responsible to free themselves and their beloved country from killing, intimidation, exploitation, dictatorship and totalitarian under Kiir and self imposed Prime Minister Paul Malong Awan at all cost.\n\nThe people of South Sudan should not allow themselves to held hostages and be enslaved in their own Country, South Sudan. This is the time for a wake up call to free South Sudan from Killer Kiir and Killer Malong.\n\nThis is the time for the citizens, who lost their lands and properties to grabbers under Kiir and Malong, to reclaim their properties back at all cost.\n\nThis is the time for those whose children, who were forced to child soldiers and died defending Malong’s personal interest to say no and enough is enough.\n\nThis is the time for the citizens, whose loved ones were killed in Juba and other major towns in South Sudan, just because of Malong’s self-imposed war to sacrifice to free them and held Malong accountable.\n\nFinally, this is the rights time to force both Killer Kiir and Killer Malong out of power using both Military and popular uprising from Nimule to Bentiu, from Aweil to Malakal, from far Raga to Renk. This is the time to sing a song down, down Salva Kiir and to hell, to hell Paul Malong.\n\nThe writer is concern South Sudanese Activist and can be reached via lualmagok@yahoo.com\n\n← Fighting Erupted in Ayod County\nSouth Sudan: When It’s The Dead That Represents The Nation. →\n\n4 comments for “H.E.

"Marcos “El Chino” Maidana (34-3 31KOs) burst on to the main stream boxing scene after stopping the highly touted prospect at the time, Victor Ortiz in 2009. He has played the part of underdog in almost all his fights since. Maidana is 3-1 in his fights since his move up to welterweight. Once again Marcos Maidana will enter the ring as the underdog when he takes on the WBC Welterweight Champion Adrien “The Problem” Broner (27-0 22KOs) at the Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas on Saturday December 14th.\n\nComing into the fight, most criticism is on Broner as many feel he has had an easy ride to his championship belts. Although Broner disagrees with that because he feels it’s the expectations set by the fans and media that never seem to be satisfied, Maidana feels the he is Broner’s biggest test to date claiming, “I’m convinced that Adrien Broner has never fought a rival like me, so it will not be easy for him.”\n\nAfter Maidana’s knockout victory over Josesito Lopez, his crosshairs were set solely on getting t a shot at the WBC title and to challenge Broner. Maidana and Broner have clashed heads publicly but Maidana states that at first it was not a personal vendetta towards the newly crowned champ, he just wanted what Broner has. “It’s not that I’m upset or anything with Adrien Broner. The fact is the thing that I really; really want in my career is to be the welterweight champion, the WBA Welterweight Champion, and it happens that Broner won that belt unexpectedly because he was a lightweight fighter, but since he beat Malignaggi that kind of like became my obsession because I want to be a world champion. It happens that he has the belt and that’s why I want to beat him,” Maidana explained.\n\nMaidana does admit that since the fight was signed Broner has gotten under his skin. He says that the motivation before was to win the title but now because of their altercation in the days leading up the Mayweather/Canelo fight, it’s extra motivation to come forward and stop Broner. “I really wanted to beat and knock him out even at that stage. The fight was not done already when the incident happened in Las Vegas. But after the incident, I tell you the truth, it really lightened me up, and it was a motivation for me, because I’m not used to fights or getting into arguments or coming to blows with fellow fighters, but this guy has something special. He’s a provocative character, so it really gave me motivation to focus more on my training, I’m training harder, and I just want it to be December 14 now.”\n\nIn the past Maidana has lost fights to both Devon Alexander and Amir Khan by decision. Both fighters are slick, fast, and talented boxers. Past events do not predict future outcomes, but Maidana feels he has learned from those fights and through preparation and watching footage of his opponent, he is ready for whatever Broner brings into the ring. “In the past, I’ve had a few problems with boxers, slick boxers, but I don’t think Broner is such a slick boxer. He’s talented, but I’m preparing well. I adjusted myself and I’ll be sure that Adrien is going to respect me in the ring. I will make sure that he respects me in the ring.” Maidana went on to say, “I’ve been watching tapes of him of course like I always do through my preparation, and it’s a tough fight man. It’s a tough fight for both of us. Of course, he is a great fighter, but he makes mistakes. I’m very confident.”"

"Not Yet a Woman - Forging Identity from Scrutiny",
null,
"My instinct when asked about my eating disorder is to mystify my “heroic journey” to recovery. Through snarky and impactful commentary, I often simplify the root of my mental disorder to avoid difficult questions. However, a key yet disregarded, element to my story is that for a very long time, I didn’t want to be a woman.\n\nTo clarify, I happily am a woman of a colour. However, I was thrown into the idea of sexism and sexualisation early in my life. This was overwhelming and induced severe anxiety as a child because I wanted to fit in (see: be feminine) but didn’t identify with gender norms. When I discovered that I was destined to become fuller bodied, this sparked a medieval thought process that I needed to live with as little of myself as possible. The less of myself that existed, the less I suffered at being pinned down to my gender.\n\nMy diagnosis as a preteen was strongly linked to combating self-change through self-harm. Over the years from consistent therapy sessions and support groups, I learned that my inner battles with womanly maturity was coupled with my floundering identity. I was attempting to fit into femininity when at the time, I didn’t define as a “girl”. In addition, many involved were unable respect that I was as a person of colour who suffered a typically westernized mental disorder. Once this element of my diagnosis had set in, I stuck to meal schedules and overcame fear foods through cognitive therapy without restraint. Recovery had become attainable.\n\nMy experiences highlight the issue of not acknowledging the strong link between society and clinical study especially in mental illness. I was diagnosed at a stereotypical age group and in a community where being a questioning girl of colour was unheard of. This resulted in an extraneous recovery process and yearly relapses. Scrutiny towards the lack of representation allows future studies to eventually capsulate all genders, ages, classes and ethnicities. The ability I have to freely discuss my previous affront to womanhood along with my strong strides in recovery is an example of scientific and societal progress.\n\nIn conclusion, we must consistently recognise that without dimension in everyday discussion, hurtful and elementary understanding of eating disorders percolate. Since my appropriate diagnosis, I’ve become well versed in scientific forums related to eating disorders because I disallow conversations of such to be shadowed by clichés and others’ illiteracy. To do so would be the antithesis to recovery processes and societal awareness that helped me and so many others be happy with their identity today.\n\nKelly (@_kelto) is an analyst from Toronto specializing in renewable energy development. She hopes to make great strides in the sustainable energies industry parallel to her accomplishments in recovery."

"Chuck, a passionate musician, finds his way back to music and community after a car accident left him paralyzed, bedridden and seeking hope.\n\nChuck’s Story: At 21 years old, a major car accident left Chuck paralyzed and looking to rediscover his love for music. Questioning his recovery, Chuck admits he was “not a happy camper.” Then all at once he had a change of heart. “It was like a switch,” he says. “Life works better when you appreciate people.”\n\nChuck spent more than a year in the hospital and was bedridden at home for another year after that. When he finally felt ready to begin physical therapy, he took to it with everything he could muster. With each day, Chuck began regaining control of his legs and arms. After six years, Chuck was once again able to play his beloved drums. Now Chuck makes regular trips to the library to play out front. He even brings extra drums so the people passing by can stop and join in. Chuck credits The Coordinating Center with playing a huge part of getting him back out in public again, both physically and mentally. “No way I’d be where I am without The Coordinating Center.”\n\nIn May 2016, Chuck earned an Associate’s Degree in Applied Science from Carrol Community College specializing in computer-aided drafting. In addition to graduating, Chuck found another success that day: he achieved his once-daunting goal to walk at graduation. It took years after the accident for Chuck to even consider walking again. Assisted by a gait trainer, Chuck began practicing his walk at his physical therapy sessions. After a year, he had walked a total of 8 miles. On the day of commencement, each graduate was called to walk across stage and receive their diploma. Just when everyone thought the ceremony was complete, the announcer called Chuck’s name. The audience erupted in applause as Chuck began walking carefully across the stage with an infectious grin.\n\nIn celebration of Arthritis Awareness Month we continue to bring you facts about Arthritis.\n\nArthritis is a common way to describe conditions that affect the joints.

"In 1975, the District of Columbia passed the Firearms Control Regulations Act which banned possession of all handguns in Washington DC. The act also required that all other guns, including rifles and shotguns be stored unloaded and either secured with a trigger locking device or disassembled.\n\nIn 2002, the CATO Institute spearheaded a drive to launch a lawsuit against the DC Firearms Control Regulations Act on the premise that it violated the Second Amendment rights of DC citizens. After screening a number of possible plaintiffs, they focused their attention on Dick Anthony Heller, a member of the DC police Department.\n\nAs a police officer, Heller was licensed to carry a loaded handgun into any federal office building including courthouses. Yet, under the DC law, he was not allowed to have a private handgun at his home. Furthermore, he was not allowed to have any ready to use gun at home to use for self-defense, which was a problem as his neighborhood had changed from being a family friendly area to a high crime area with a lot of drug trafficking and use. Heller had approached the NRA to help challenge the DC law, but the NRA turned him down, so when CATO expressed interest, Heller jumped at the chance.\n\nIn 2003, Heller and five others filed a lawsuit challenging the DC law. Their suit first went to the District Court for the District of Columbia. However, the lawsuit was dismissed by one liberal judge, District Court Judge Ricardo Urbina. An appeal of the dismissal was quickly filed and the US Court of Appeals for the DC Circuit re-instated the lawsuit with a 2-1 decision.\n\nThe Court of Appeals also struck down some of the key provisions of the Firearms Control Regulation Act as being unconstitutional. The lone dissenting judge, Karen Henderson wrote that the Second Amendment did not apply to the citizens of Washington DC as the amendment only relates to militias of the state and not to private citizens.\n\nHenderson’s argument has been and still is being used by liberals to restrict gun ownership of American citizens. What they fail to understand was at the time the Constitution and Second Amendment was written, the people were the militia and were often called upon for various military-related issues.\n\nIn 2007, DC Mayor Adrian Fenty and the District government petitioned the court to rehear the case, but the Court of Appeals refused the request. Consequently, the case was then taken to the US Supreme Court.\n\nIn 2008, the US Supreme Court issued their landmark decision in which they ruled that the Second Amendment does protect an individual’s right to possess a firearm even if they are not part of any formal state militia. The ruling also stated that they were allowed to possess firearms in the home for the use of self-defense. In their ruling, the Supreme Court struck down the Firearms Control Regulation Act.\n\nIn the meantime, Maryland passed a ban on ‘assault weapons’ and ‘high capacity magazines’. That law was also challenged in court on the grounds that it violated the Second Amendment rights of the citizens of Maryland. The case of District of Columbia v. Heller, et. Al., was part of the defense argument presented in the case.\n\nEarlier this week, the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals voted 10-4 to uphold the Maryland law banning assault weapons and high capacity magazines. According to the National Review:\n\n“Freed up by the Supreme Court’s ongoing reluctance to engage in depth with the Second Amendment, the Fourth Circuit has taken it upon itself to rewrite Heller en banc. In a 10–4 decision, issued yesterday afternoon, the court upheld Maryland’s ban on both ‘assault weapons’ and ‘high capacity magazines.’ By so doing, it deprived the people of Maryland, the Carolinas, and the Virginias of the core protections to which the Constitution entitles them.”\n\n“…Perhaps the Fourth Circuit has forgotten where it sits in the pecking order. Or perhaps the Fourth’s majority is unfamiliar with Caetano. Certainly, its grasp of Heller is wanting. In pushing back against the majority’s newfangled test, the dissenters correctly note that ‘Heller in no way suggests that the military usefulness of a weapon disqualifies it from Second Amendment protection. That is the majority’s singular concoction.’ Indeed it is. As for Heller’s ‘common use’ and ‘dangerous and unusual’ standards, both of those are thrown casually out the window. The evidence, notes Judge Traxler, leads one to the ‘unavoidable conclusion that popular semiautomatic rifles such as the AR-15 are commonly possessed by American citizens for lawful purposes within the meaning of Heller.’ Moreover, the record ‘shows unequivocally that magazines with a capacity of greater than 10 rounds are commonly kept by American citizens, as there are more than 75 million such magazines owned by them in the United States.’ But the majority doesn’t care about that, choosing to apply only the ‘military’ standard that it has invented. Evidently, it does not matter to Judge King that the standard in Heller is ‘dangerous and unusual’ [italics mine] — i.e. that commonly owned, ‘usual’ weapons cannot be prohibited on the grounds that they are particularly lethal. Nor, apparently, is King concerned that the Court ruled in Caetano that ‘the relative dangerousness of a weapon is irrelevant when the weapon belongs to a class of arms commonly used for lawful purposes.’ He and his colleagues had a conclusion to reach, and by gum were they going to get there.”\n\nUndoubtedly, the decision of the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals and their reasoning will be appealed to the US Supreme Court. This could and probably will be the most important test of the Second Amendment in our lifetimes and will define the gun rights of all Americans for years to come."

Instead, she came across as a very racist person, who brought racial topics to the table of a completely irrelevant dialogue.\n\nWe were discussing Carl Jung’s philosophy of the subconscious “shadow” side of our personality. She made that word, shadow, a racial slur, stating that we “as privileged white women” need to not use this type of vocabulary, including the words “light” and “dark”.\n\nShe says she never uses those words: shadow, light and dark. She has cut those three vocabulary words out of her lexicon. Completely.\n\nI wonder, what does she say when it’s DARK outside? How about when it is LIGHT in the morning? What about those times that I’m teaching kids to play with movement outside by using their own SHADOWS? Or reading Peter Pan who is obsessed with sewing his SHADOW back on? I think we know what I’m saying here.",

"Thirteen mysterious characters long, the tweet – “;l;;gmlzxssaw」 – prompted some on social media to jokingly suggest it was confidential information, for example a password or a nuclear launch code, that had accidentally been leaked.\n\nしかしながら, through a freedom of information request, the online publication the Daily Dot discovered the tweet had been published due to what must be every social media manager’s nightmare. The Strategic Command’s freedom of information officer said in a statement that “the command’s Twitter manager, while in a telework status, momentarily left the command’s Twitter account open and unattended. His very young child took advantage of the situation and started playing with the keys and unfortunately, and unknowingly, posted the tweet.”\n\nThe manager sent out an apology for the tweet within half an hour. しかしながら, the wording of the apology – “Apologizes for any confusion. Please disregard this post” – only caused further bafflement on the internet.\n\nザ・ US Strategic Command account, which has nearly 200,000 followers, is more normally used to post tweets about operational achievements and US military hardware.",

"George Clooney’s not so secret return to E.R. aired last night and it was magical. I literally squealed when I saw Clooney, Julianna Margulies and Eriq La Salle names in the credits. I squealed even louder when Ross and Hathaway made their (unassuming) first appearance in the episode. I’m so freakin happy right now; this must be what it feels like when you’re kids come home from college.\n\nOverall, it was a great episode that also guest starred Susan Sarandon and Ernest Borgenine. Dr. Ross is now an attending physican in Seattle and Hathaway is a hospital administrator. Benton has been at Northwestern the past seven years. When Carter needs a kidney transplant, their lives become intertwined but of course, they’ll never that.\n\nThere were so many perfect moments with the original cast members but here are my favorites.\n\nDr. Ross sits down with Rosgotra and Taggert and they try to figure out who from his days are still around.\n\nI’d like to point out Abby Lockhart delivered Ross and Hathaway’s daughters. Okay, enough of my ER-fanatic tendencies.\n\nAlso very crucial to this episode: The Benton/Carter bromance lives.\n\nSusan Sarandon’s guest appearance as a grandmother dealing with the death of her grandson just screams “Emmy nominee”.\n\nLast but not least: Carol is updated on the status of the transplants and updates Ross. The kidney went to some doctor in Chicago. They have no clue the kidney recipient is one of their former co-workers, and I wouldn’t have it be any other way.\n\nI loved this episode; I’ve already watched it three times.\n\nThoughts on the E.R. reunion?\n\nOne thought on “In Which Dr. Ross Returns”"

"Wrestling in Hoboken? WRESTLING! IN HOBOKEN!\n\nRSS\nDid you know that on March 24th, at 8PM, there will be a major wrestling event in Hoboken? That’s right: Located at the Rue Building at 301 Garden Street right here in town, Capitol Wrestling will be celebrating it’s 1-year anniversary with a live event. Tickets are $15-$20 (online or available at Tunes on Washington Street), but you can get a 50% discount if you bring 2 items to donate to the Hoboken Shelter.",
null,
"Capitol Wrestling describes itself as a TV show first and foremost. Available to watch live on Twitch, events and episodes can also be viewed on YouTube and other streaming services, and the management of the company has been pretty clear that ultimately they want to cross over to mainstream television in some way. Which makes perfect sense, of course; wrestling, while a demanding, athletic performance requiring talent, skill, and ability, has long been as much about the drama and the story as it’s been about the moves. As a result, Capitol Wrestling will be familiar in its general outlines to anyone who has watched a wrestling match on TV in the last sixty years, from the personas and characters of the wrestlers to their unspoken designations as heels or faces. The show is produced on a low budget, clearly, but with a clear attention to detail and to entertainment value. Watch one episode and it’s clear that if you enjoy wrestling with all its heightened drama, costumes, and crazy energy, you’re going to have a heck of a good time here.",
null,
"Which makes the fact that you can go see a real, live, produced wrestling show right here in town kind of amazing. But the people running Capitol Wrestling see opportunity.\n\n“In the past decade, the professional wrestling industry has devolved from being the Sport of Kings to being the home of drug abusers, suicidal maniacs, rapists, pimps, prostitutes, and social deviants,” Capitol Wrestling’s CEO Marcus K. Dowling wrote in a recent Medium Post. “Pro wrestling’s future is indeed odd. But because Capitol Wrestling is embracing being odder, we’re ready to weather the unique and intriguing vibe that’s appeared on the horizon for the industry at-large.”",
null,
"Capitol Wrestling’s promotional material and copy emphasizes the community they’ve built—obviously a community that enjoys wrestling from both sides of the ring, but also a community of people trying to build something from scratch. How often do whole wrestling shows just spring up in the modern age? The technology that we all have at out disposal is incredible. Hollywood directors are making entire films on their smartphones, and YouTube has evolved a huge ecosystem of vloggers and scripted shows that rival traditional television and other streaming services. The idea of Capitol Wrestling is an exciting one even if you’re not much of a wrestling fan.\n\nSo, what have you got to lose? Saturday, March 24th, 8pm. For anywhere from $7.50 to $20 you can see a great wrestling card, donate to a good cause, and find out something that’s been brewing in your own backyard this past year. Check it out!"

"The thief comes to steal, kill & destroy; I have come to that may have life, and have it to the full.\n\nWelcome to 2023. So far, so good right? If not, I hope things get better for you and yours. As a matter of fact, this post may be for you. In the new year, most people plan goals for the rest of the year, and while I’m not objecting to doing just that, I’d like to insert a few words of encouragement between your resolutions. Before we get too far into the year, I wanted to begin with a post that’ll equip you for the enemy’s attacks because if it’s not self-sabotage or God blocking you, it’ll be Satan trying to fight your progress. Most of us, if not all of us as Christians, have heard this verse before. We’ve repeatedly repeated it and heard pastors and relatives say it; but have we really taken the time to understand what that means? What does an attack of the enemy or in this case, Satan, look like? The scripture above says he has only 3 tactics: Steal, kill and destroy. At first glance, they all look the same but after looking at each individually we can see the uniqueness in each one.\n\n1Steal: ” To take or appropriate without right or leave and with intent to keep or make use of wrongfully.” b) “To take away by force or unjust means.” d) “To appropriate to oneself or beyond one’s proper share: make oneself the focus of.” 3(a): “To seize, gain, or win by trickery, skill or daring.”\n\nWhile we know that Satan is a thief, we must understand what he decides to steal that allows him to steal everything else. Satan is a thief of the truth first and foremost. When you think of it, that causes death and destruction. Satan is known as “the father of lies” (John 8:44). Satan knows the truth which is why he can distort it. He omits information and twists facts to present them to us as facts to invade our emotions and push us to make decisions that distract and destroy God’s people. We see this in the Garden of Eden with Adam and Eve. In Genesis 3, we witness the conversation between Eve, God’s latest creation, and Satan, in the form of a snake. Here he takes God’s instruction, twists it, and questions it to Eve, who knew exactly what God spoke but it’s easy to hear differently when information justifies what we want to do. Satan pointed out how the fruit looked good to eat and how it’d increase her knowledge and it did, but not in the way she assumed. The same goes for the rest of us, believing the lies of the enemy will cause us to become barren.\n\n2Kill: “To deprive of life: cause the death of. b) to slaughter for food\n\nDeath is something most of humanity fear from the fear of dying physically or having to die to a habit or lifestyle we’ve connected to for so long, death is a subject most avoid. Satan is very aware of that and using that knowledge he can reconstruct fragments of truth into illusions that can become our perception. The tactic of Satan is to manipulate facts so that we’ll try to make a mistaken thing true in action while simultaneously destroying ourselves. We make decisions based on how we perceive the world and where we are within it. If we’re seeing out of a broken lens, it’s likely we’ll choose things that’ll bring harm believing we’re choosing safety while denying the correct path.\n\nDeath occurs to plenty more things than our natural bodies, but to our dreams, our relationship with Christ, healthy relationships, and habits. Death can seem like an all-encompassing horror, that is until it runs into Jesus and the promise His sacrifice secures. Satan has limited power over what he has access to, let alone what he can do (Job 1:10) to us and it’s all under God’s permission. anything that he has killed in us or within our lives, can be resurrected and restored. (John 11:38-44, Matt 9:18-26)\n\n3Destroy: To ruin the structure, organic existence, or condition of.”\n\nNow, you may be thinking to yourself that there isn’t much of a difference between killing something and destroying it, but there’s a small difference and it is something to take notice of and can be used by the enemy. To be destroyed causes the loss of natural function, creates dependence, and distorts usage. It’s one thing to have something stolen from you and something else to be killed, but it’s a distinct form of misery to have something destroyed. Why is it so different then the other two? Simply because you’re left with the remains of something that once was fully operational and learning to accept and recover from that can be breathtaking. When I think of something being destroyed, I think of something a person worked hard to achieve and maintain being ruined suddenly, like becoming paralyzed in an accident or losing your home due to a natural disaster.\n\nSatan will attack not only our person and those attached to us, but what we have. Remember, none of this is limited to tangible items, he will damage whatever we have in order to cripple us. When something we’ve built, invested in and care for is destroyed, it can porpel us into a dark place of helplessness, hopelessness and despiar. We waste time trying to figure out what happened as we collect the rubble around us, mourning what we once had but now are only sourveniers from before. Destruction creates a barrier of then versus now. Comparisson takes our attention and becomes the motivating force in regaining what we had.\n\nIn all of these tactics, Satan has the ability to distract, lead astray, kill, steal, lie and manipulate us, but the blessing is knowing that he is only successful if we allow him to win. How do we do that? By abstaining from time with Christ in prayer and studying the Word, in living outside of the standard of Christ and denying His power and authority in your life. You’re not going to read or pray everyday of your life, but strive anyway to build a solid relationship with Christ and while He won’t spare you from trouble, He’ll sustain you during those times. I pray you were blessed by this post, share it with family, friends and strangers. Until next time, keep Christ first and take care!"

"The homerenting company has hired an Amazon executive ahead of going public next year.",
null,
"Airbnb is getting ready for the imminent launch of its initial public offering (IPO). The company has hired former Amazon executive, Dave Stephenson, to be its chief financial officer (CFO).\n\nAirbnb was founded by Joe Gebbia and Brian Chesky in 2007. They decided to turn their apartment in the US city of San Francisco into a personal bed and breakfast for tourists to make extra money. The company grew through word-of-mouth- and by catering to guests that want an alternative to crowded hotel rooms. The small business has since grown to have 640,000 hosts opening their homes and 150 million people using the corporation’s services.\n\nThe homerenting business released its third quarter (Q3) earnings report and revealed the most successful quarter in the company’s history.\n\n‘The third quarter of 2018 was the strongest quarter in Airbnb history, and the first quarter in which Airbnb recognised substantially more than $1 billion in revenue. To date, there have been more than 400 million guest arrivals in Airbnb listings around the world. Investing in our community, our strong brand and our global presence are powering significant growth. For example, the number of guest arrivals in the third quarter increased by 91% in Beijing, 79% in Mexico City, 70% in Birmingham, England, and 67% in Johannesburg, South Africa,’ reported the company.\n\nBecause of the corporation's success, the company has been valued at $33 billion. That high evaluation makes it a ‘unicorn’ company, a rare business worth more than $1 billion.\n\nStephenson is expected to bring his 17 years of experience with Amazon to the business before it goes public. He was responsible for Amazon’s global sales of Amazon Prime and Whole Foods. Airbnb had been without a CFO since February. Airbnb chief executive officer (CEO), Brian Chesky, spoke glowingly about Stephenson. ‘Dave is one of the best financial operators in the world and there’s no one better prepared to serve as our CFO. I’m proud of everything we’ve achieved, but Airbnb is just getting started,’ said Chesky."

Better still, you can make your own very easily and cheaply. For the Canal Music tour (in 2009), I wanted to make myself a new hydrophone which included the pre-amp I made here. I have made hydrophones using piezo elements before, but I never tried using a pre-amp, which tends to make piezos sound a lot better.\n\nIf you don’t know what the hell I’m talking about right now, have a look at these instructions on how to make the simplest possible contact mic. It’s exactly the same principle when making a hydrophone, except you get to go underwater.\n\nI decided to house the pre-amp in the same enclosure as piezo elements (to avoid noise entering the circuit). The challenge here is to find a decent enclosure. After having some delicious spicy chickpea and tomato soup, I thought it would probably be possible to solder up some kind of tin-can casing, which would be fairly strong and watertight.\n\nAfter a few experiments, I found you can quite easily solder steel (NB not aluminum!!) food cans together using a regular soldering iron and electrical solder. It works for water pipes so it should be watertight in this case.\n\nI used a wire brush to rough up the surface of the can before super-gluing two piezo elements to the inside of the lid.\n\nI drilled a hole in the larger of the two cans just big enough for my microphone cable to go through. I then made this little chimney out of a scrap piece of can. I used a wire brush to clean the coating off the can before soldering.\n\nTo hold the chimney into position while soldering, I temporarily bolted it to the can. A few moments later, and it looks like some kind of improvised smoking device.\n\nI coated the mic cable with hot glue and pulled it through the chimney, then splurged lots more glue where the wires enter the can. This is the most likely place water will try to enter the capsule, so make sure you seal it completely using ridiculous amounts of hot glue.\n\nThis shows the pre-amp connected to (and sitting atop) the piezo/hot-glue sandwich.\n\nAll leads soldered up! It was really fiddly to do, and I made a wrong connection initially, which was easily fixed. It’s a very good idea to connect your hydrophone to a mixer and check it actually works before you close the case. Before closing the unit, I covered the pre-amp circuit with a lot of hot glue to seal it off from any stray water.\n\nMy girlfriend bravely held the two halves of the case closed as I carefully soldered around the seam. Again, I used a steel brush to clean the surfaces before soldering. It was actually quite easy to do, and I like the quasi-welded appearance. All that is left to do now is pop it in the sink and test it out.\n\nIt took half a day to make the case and the same to make the pre-amp. The whole thing cost less than £10 in parts and compares very well against hydrophones costing 10 times the price. I’m going to paint and varnish the casing; this is important if you don’t want your hydrophone to rust away.\n\nGo forth and hydrophone!\n\n+ Learn more with Soundfly: Learn how to turn field recordings and other nonmusical sounds into full-fledged compositions in your DAW with Making Music From Everyday Items, a free course instructed by famed found-sounds beatmaker Andrew Huang.\n\nLeafcutter John is a London-based Songwriter, Electronic musician, and Artist."

"Thanks to the Apeiron Review for publishing my poem “In the Aftermath of Another Fire” in the Summer 2015 issue.\n\nI contributed two poems to the Shared Visions project for the Ars Nova Singers. This collaboration for Colorado-based artists began with seven visual artists who shared their work, followed by nineteen poets who wrote pieces inspired by these works. The next phase will involve three composers choosing a few of these pieces to serve as the basis for new choral music to be performed by the Ars Nova Singers in April 2016.\n\nIt was an honor to be accepted as a member of the Juried Advanced Poetry Workshop for the 10th Annual Lighthouse Lit Fest in Denver from June 8-12, 2015, and to study with such a wonderful group of talented writers from all over the nation and beyond. This week-long workshop was led by one of our greatest contemporary American poets, Major Jackson, who challenged us and brought out our best.",

"\nSAN FRANCISCO – Thomas Szapucki’s first career major league start could have been worse, but not much.\n\nThe rookie left-hander left his heart in San Francisco, along with assorted other organs, after the Giants dissected him over a brutal 13-batter stretch on Wednesday.\n\nAnd after this 9-3 loss at Oracle Park, the Mets were left with the question of where they should turn for the rotation with Max Scherzer and Tylor Megill on the injured list and Jacob deGrom yet to throw a pitch this season.\n\nThe Mets (29-17) lost their second series of the season and finished a .500 road trip that included a stop in Colorado.\n\nThe 25-year-old Szapucki, recalled from Triple-A Syracuse before the game, barely killed the first inning and got knocked out in the second. The Giants hit four home runs against him and scored nine runs on seven hits and three walks.\n\nWhere can the Mets turn next? Options might include Connor Gray, a right-hander who hasn’t allowed a run in his last three starts for Syracuse, if the Mets don’t revert to Trevor Williams, who perhaps bolstered his case with 3 2/3 innings of shutout relief . The right-hander was working on three days’ rest after starting the nightcap of Saturday’s doubleheader in Colorado. The Mets will need this spot in the rotation Tuesday against the Nationals.\n\nSzapucki struck out Darin Ruf leading off the first, but an avalanche ensued. Wilmer Flores doubled and Mike Yastrzemski walked before Evan Longoria crushed a homer to center-field. The Giants were just getting started. After Thairo Estrada walked, Joc Pederson homered. The blast was the fourth in two days for Pedersen, who willed the Giants to victory Tuesday night with a three-homer performance in which he also knocked in the tying run against Edwin Diaz in the ninth.\n\nIn the second, Szapucki surrendered doubles to Donovan Walton and Flores that extended the Giants’ lead to 6-0 before Yastrzemski and Longoria blasted consecutive homers that ended Szapucki’s afternoon.\n\nJeff McNeil went sliding into a side wall in the left field – with his left knee leading – to catch Ruf’s pop up in the third inning. McNeil, in obvious discomfort, was examined by the trainer and spoke with Buck Showalter before remaining in the game to complete the half inning. But Travis Jankowski pinch-hit for McNeil in the top of the fourth. McNeil, according to the Mets, has a left-knee contusion and will be evaluated on a daily basis."

"A fresh wave of violent attacks erupted last night in the Johannesburg central business district prompting police to react which led to the arrest of four persons while two persons were confirmed dead. One died from stabbing injuries in the Hillbrow area and the other was shot dead in Malvern the JMPD chief David Tembe confirmed.\n\nChaos started on Sunday after men from nearby hostels marched into the central business district armed with all sorts of weapons and chanting songs that depict foreigners should leave the city.\n\nSeveral buildings and cars were set alight and business looted overnight which affected the suburbs of Jeppe, Malvern, and Hillbrow known to be heavily populated by foreign nationals. There were collateral damages as South African businesses too were not spared from the violent attacks and the police said ‘’ I think this is pure criminality because some of the shops that were burned did not belong to the foreigners, it belonged to South Africans.”",

"For some reason this has been on my radar for some time. Having lived and worked in a number of big cities, smaller regional and rural towns one notices distinct differences in heat island effects between larger and smaller urban environments.\n\nDensely populated urban environments with large tracts of hardscape (e.g. roads, footpaths, paving etc.) and sparsely planted shade trees makes a big difference for families in need of places to retreat and play in hot weather apart from the mall and the municipal pool. I have vivid memories of stepping out the front door when my kids were little, into heatwave conditions only to land on black asphalt footpaths and pavements that would probably burn bare feet. Our inner city neighbourhood did have street trees, but they were not the type providing expansive cooling shade. So the walk to the air conditioned library or the local pool made you, well want to lie down under a shady tree…\n\nAs Greening Australia (2018) points out urban heat island effect is reduced in suburbs with good tree canopy cover and bigger backyards. However, data from recent studies suggest such urban environments may be in decline with associated impacts:\n\nAll of the above begs the question, what is happening with heat island effects in playgrounds and outdoor spaces in childcare settings, preschools and schools across Australia where children and young people spend a lot of their waking hours?\n\nThings will only heat-up in the playground as our average summer temperatures continue to rise as a result of global climate change with projections that some new suburbs may become unlivable.\n\nWe should be increasing urban tree canopy by up to 30% to respond to increasing urban heat island effects, being mindful of what types of trees will produce cooling effects of up to 10 degrees Celsius.\n\nGood news is practical action is being taken to respond to these emerging problems such as new research and localised school greening projects:\n\nThis site uses Akismet to reduce spam.

"Very early one morning last week, I got a text from one of my coworkers asking if I have ever been to the Dubai World Cup. I figure it was just a “do you think I should go” type question so said that I hadn’t been because it was expensive if you aren’t into horse racing, and didn’t think about it again.\n\nA few hours later the same coworker comes by my desk with 4 tickets that he had been given to him at an event the night before. Turns out he is less into horse racing than I am. It was such a kind thing to do.",
null,
"A message was pinged to my girl group and the first ones with their hands up got a free ticket too. The only thing to do was to work out what on earth to wear. Thankfully with the aid of some good and strong Spanks, I was able to fit into my Christmas Day dress again. Luckily, I also had a fascinator to match. I was good to go!",
null,
"With temperatures set to reach 38 celsius during the day, we took the much nicer option of not arriving until about 6pm. It was a little later than originally planned, but as it turned out, that was a really good thing as it was still really very hot. We also totally lucked out… we walked straight into the Moet area, were served straight away, and then the lovely man who was looking after us, found us a nice table to sit at.",
null,
"The area was a great place to view the races too. You could see most of the track and the big screens which were showing the race – and as a bonus they had an animation at the bottom of the screen so that you could see the jockeys jersey numbers keep moving along showing you the order of the pack! Really clever idea!",
null,
"We had intended on having more of a mooch around really but when you find a great spot to start with, where you can see everything you want to, then why move?!\n\nOn the tables were menus (AED 200 for an individual bottle of Moet, and AED 550 for a large bottle and nearly AED 2,000 for a magnum!), and a race guide. We had a lovely little time picking out the horses for each race, and then cheering them on as they went by. It was a great way of being involved and not breaking any laws. Betting is strictly haram. I am pleased to announce though that I had the winning horse in 2 of the 4 races that we saw!!\n\nSpeaking of the cheering, it was odd…. it kind of went in a Mexican wave. No one was really paying attention except for the few seconds that it took for the horse to gallop by. It was a bit sad really. There was really no atmosphere in “Apron Views” outside that brief moment. By all accounts that was not the case in the Barasti area, but apparently it was “messy” so we avoided that! I remember the great atmosphere at Ascot and at Epsom and although its been years, I am sure that there was between race entertainment of sorts, or music. Just something to keep everyone’s spirits up. It was a little flat at Meydan and that’s a real shame. It could also be because the place is monstrously huge!!\n\nOne bit that wasn’t flat though was the strange show that went on. I have no clue what it was about, and couldn’t see the main act because it was too far down the track, but I was somewhat mesmerized by the music (if anyone knows what it was, please update me!!) and the balloon acrobats. It didn’t matter what it was for, I could watch these performers for hours!",
null,
"The highlight for me was really the people watching!! Literally everyone was represented there, from the family who were obviously tourists who hadn’t planned on attending the richest horse race in the world so were dressed in denim shorts, t-shirts and sneakers, to the ladies who spent more than my annual salary on their outfit for the day.\n\nThere was only one celebrity sighting for us. Some teeny tiny little chap called Connor Maynard? Yeah, I have no clue either and that’s after googling him. He caused a bit of a stir for a few seconds and then disappeared again. Not hard when you make the jockeys look like giants!\n\n(And no, I still haven’t seen Sheikh Mohammed in real life. 7.5yrs and counting! I am not leaving until I do!!)\n\nNaturally, for better or worse, there were a few stand out moments for outfits though….\n\nMy prize for footwear goes to this lady:",
null,
"And my prize for head-wear strangeness goes to this lady (photo from TimeOut):",
null,
"Speaking of TimeOut, they really aren’t great at catching how diverse the crowd is. It really isn’t as “white” as you would think looking at their photos. It’s probably fairly Brit heavy, but that doesn’t mean it’s somewhere where people of colour would feel uncomfortable. Not only that, I saw some of the most beautiful abayas and saris that I have ever seen. It no doubt shows that the Brits tend to be more camera hungry and that maybe the other ladies have a little more decorum, but I feel it’s quite important that people know that people from all places get dressed in their finery to come out and play!\n\nOne other thing… yes, there were a few drunk people ambling about but it wasn’t as bad as I had been lead to believe. Most people were having a jolly time without getting wasted. It’s the one thing I had been dreading about being later to arrive. But, maybe because we picked the Moet area and not Barasti, I didn’t have overall the experience that everyone staggering about. Just the odd one.\n\nThere were soooooo many people that I wish I could have taken photos of but bearing in mind that the UAE has some very strict laws on photographing people and using those photos on social media without their consent, I decided to err on the side of caution and not take pictures. I do have to describe a couple though, mostly because I was a little shocked….\n\nI really don’t understand how these women, and a great deal more both on the day and generally when “dressed up”, could wear those things with confidence in the UAE? I was worried because my shoulders were uncovered. Their bits were all out for the world to see! And let’s not even mention the amount of women who can’t sit properly in a short skirt. It’s really quite revolting ladies. Put it away!!!\n\nMy other entertainer of the day was the Social Media Starlet. She was very pretty and totally knew it! Her dress may have been spray painted on it covered her boobs, shoulders and came just above her knees. She looked really nice, if not a little like she could do with a good home cooked meal. The thing that amused us the most was the amount of time she spent taking selfies! It was unbelievable! Also, how fluidly she moved between poses. Amazing! I don’t have a clue how people do it but it’s a skill for sure. Obviously a well practiced one but a skill nonetheless! She was accompanied by Floppy Hair Dude (a Hugh Grant type) and Bow Tie Man. Bow Tie Man obviously had a thumping giant crush on her and those two being a couple would aesthetically have made more sense. She was however with Floppy Hair. From what we could figure out, he has the money too. This made total sense. Social Media Starlet and Bow Tie Man would attract people for more social media photos, and Floppy Hair Dude would just keep going back and buying more champers to keep them all going. Surprisingly, I wasn’t asked to have my photo taken with her! Haha!\n\nThere was one thing the shocked me, and probably was highlighted because of all the people Social Media Starlet kept dragging closer, was the amount of drunk Emirates Crew tottering around exclaiming loudly how they didn’t know how they would manage their flight the next day or similar. It was a bit of an embarrassment for one of the worlds leading airlines, especially as the event’s main sponsors. But when they employ a large amount of girls based solely on their looks…\n\nAnyway, back to the day! It really was a multi-layered experience! It is absolutely something I am happy that I have now done, but it’s also something that I wouldn’t queue up to do again. Unless there were more free tickets and I had a new outfit waiting for a showing!!\n\nLike all events in the UAE though, leaving was a nightmare. The girls had work or family arriving very early the next day so we decided that we would leave after the last race. Also, if you have lived in Dubai for as long as we have, you get a bit jaded towards fireworks. Once you’ve seen one spectacular display, you’ve pretty much seen them all.\n\nWe headed out the nearest exit and joined the fairly quick moving but very long queue. Everything was going fairly well until we got to the half way point. Suddenly there were no taxis. A few more dripped by and were taken by people who had not been queuing which upset the crowd.\n\nAfter about 15 mins of no taxis, a little chap came running along shouting that there were no taxis anymore and that there were busses. No explanation and when it came down to it, no crowd control. Suddenly people started pushing forwards to get to the front of the line. They needent have bothered though. For some reason the men who were in charge of the taxi line were opening the barriers at the back of the queue to let people out.\n\nAfter a couple of sets went by (they were different busses for different areas) we got the hump at being stuck and climed over the barriers ourselves. Not my most lady-like moment, but it worked. We were on the bus and heading for Dubai Mall. What we didn’t know at the time is that our glee would be short lived.\n\nAfter nearly 40 minutes with a driver who pumped the gas rather than kept a steady speed, we finally arrived Downtown. It’s not like it took so long because he was going at a snails pace. Not at all. The man thought he was audtioning for the next Grand Prix, I’m quite sure. We were just taken on the most random and long route I could think of. Actually, that’s a lie. I wouldn’t have been able to think of it. I had no idea where we were most of the time.\n\nIt was an absolute shambles, but again, it happens every time there is an event and at least there were busses this time. I’ve waited nearly 3hrs for a taxi before at other out of the way venues, and let’s not even touch on the problems people had after the Guns’n’Roses concert the Autism Rocks Arena!\n\nSo, to recap, I had a great time because there was my friends, bubbles and people watching, but I have done that now and that’s enough for me! I am very thankful to my coworker for his generosity though, and am grateful for this very unique experience.",

"2020 has been a year full of disasters, but Australian firefighters are coming to the rescue by providing a much-needed distraction while raising money for animals in need.\n\nAustralian firefighters have been posing shirtless for good causes for 28 years. This year’s calendars benefit injured wildlife rescued from the country’s devastating wildfires.\n\nThe Australian Firefighters Calendar started in 1993 to provide funds for research into childhood burns at Children’s Hospital Foundation.

"Redefining the Contemporary Architect in a Robotically Fabricated World\n\nWhy You Should Get Excited About the Next Wave of Architectural Design: Robotically Fabricated Buildings Can you envision living in a modern world built by...\n\nWhy You Should Get Excited About the Next Wave of Architectural Design: Robotically Fabricated Buildings\n\nCan you envision living in a modern world built by robots?\n\nAn architectural revolution is growing in the Dutch port city of Rotterdam. One innovative design team, Studio RAP, is on the path toward robotically fabricated architectural design.\n\n“We see a lot of potential in embracing digital fabrication,” said Wessel van Beerendonk, one of the founders of the studio responsible for the first robotically fabricated building in the Netherlands.\n\nA major step in the future has been their recent completion of the nearly 1,400-square-foot SkilledIn Office. The structure is home to an office and training area for students and entrepreneurs, located on the city’s education and technology hub shared by Albeda College, Rotterdam University and various startup firms called the Innovation Dock.\n\n“We redefine the definition of the contemporary architect,” van Beerendonk told Dezeen. “Through digital fabrication, the architect can become a master builder, with increased control over the quality and integrity of the building in relation to the design intent.”\n\nWith the use of a plug-in program for 3D modelling—RhinoVAULT—the team was able to create an efficient wooden structure comprised of over 200 robotically milled wood panels. Together, the panels were assembled to erect a central column to support a curvaceous roof that extends over 26 feet.",
null,
"“The unique shape of the vault is distilled out of digital form-finding methods,” noted Van Beerendonk. “This optimisation [sic] results in a compression-only roof structure.”\n\n“The vault rises up in a spectacular way from a central column that gradually blends into the roof construction in one smooth motion,” he added.\n\nThe “maker revolution” has begun with Studio RAP and it’s only a matter of time before robotic fabrication begins its ascent into bigger and more ambitious designs. The cities of the future may be completely robotically fabricated, but the technology is an immediate reality right now."

"The surprise drone attack that knocked out Saudi oil installations in mid September has already nudged gas prices higher in Canada, and as the Middle-East sabre-rattling continues there may well be worse to come. So, maybe Mazda hasn’t missed the boat after all with the debut of its perpetually-postponed, but now-finally-here, first diesel engine in Canada.\n\nThen again, the way Mazda tells it, maybe fuel economy isn’t the primary raison d’être for the CX-5 D anyway. We’ll come back to that.\n\nMazda first promised a diesel for North American seven years ago, and underlined its intent by racing diesel-engined Mazda6 sedans in 2013. The track cars did well, but the street version never happened. Now, the 2.2-litre diesel has finally materialized under the hood of the CX-5 compact CUV.\n\nThe new application makes sense insofar as compact CUVs dominate today’s market, while sales of mid-size sedans like the Mazda6 are in a death spiral. Then again, with the exception of pickups, most automakers seem to be redirecting their attention from diesels to electrification on the road to fuel efficiency.\n\nNow that it’s here, the diesel is offered only in top-drawer Signature trim at $45,950. That’s $5,000 above the more-powerful Signature turbocharged gasoline version, and $13,200 more than the GS AWD non-turbo gas model which uses cylinder deactivation to save gas. Clearly Mazda isn’t pitching the diesel at buyers who simply want the overall lowest-cost mobility.\n\nInstead, Mazda is pursuing additional sales by appealing to a new, unique customer base. “Diesel aficionados remain loyal to this type of alternative fuel and its benefits,” said Mazda in a press release, noting that among those diesel loyalists, “there remains a strong skew towards premium diesel vehicles, particularly SUVs.”\n\nIn other words, don’t peg the CX-5 Diesel as a fuel-sipping alternative to, say, a Toyota RAV4 Hybrid or a Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV. Rather, the CX-5 is an extant alternative to diesel SUVs that are no longer available from European luxury brands, which is in line with Mazda’s move to re-cast itself as a premium player.\n\nThat spin makes sense for Mazda, since it’s tough to argue a pure dollars-and-cents case for the CX-5 diesel. We measured 8.1 L/100 km over 500 km of mixed driving in mild weather. That beat its government 8.4 L/100 km combined number, but it’s not a lot better than the official 8.9 for the gas GS. We’ve achieved similar results in some gas-engined rivals. We also achieved 7.2 L/100 km in a Chevrolet Equinox Diesel (which, regrettably, is discontinued for 2020).\n\nSo if you’re not going to save a bundle or save the climate, what’s the point? Well, some of us just plain enjoy diesels – their effortless, low-revving power delivery has a certain appeal, as does the comforting James-Earl-Jones “gravel” of their vocals.\n\nWhy this particular diesel? The easy answer is that it’s pretty much the only one left that isn’t a pickup truck. As for the premium pretentions, the CX-5 arguably looks the part, and follows through with a polished execution of the interior trim and amenities.\n\nDynamically, however, it’s not quite a slam dunk. It handles very competently, with solid, linear steering and taut body control, combined with a good sporting ride. But it doesn’t drive with the verve of the old “zoom-zoom” Mazdas. Nor does the driving experience really stand out from some mainstream alternatives.\n\nThe 2017 redo gave the CX-5 a chunky solid new look, though it’s your call how “premium” it looks. The Signature trim includes 19-inch wheels but the only visual cues to its diesel-ness are a chrome single-outlet tailpipe and SKYACTIV-D tailgate badge.\n\nClassy interior trim helps justify the “premium” pitch, with cocoa nappa leather seats (heated and ventilated up front) and real Abachi timber accents. At-the-wheel adjustability and visibility are satisfactory and physical HVAC controls are welcome (though rather low on the dash). However the audio is overly reliant on the small display screen interfaced by a BMW-like twist/toggle/tap rotary controller (the display is not a touch-screen). Interior space dimensions are average for the class, though, subjectively, rear-seat legroom seems modest.\n\nMotor Trend track-tested the CX5-D and measured 0-60-mph (0-97 km/h) in 9.0 seconds, which is respectable for a CUV and not far behind the non-turbo gas CX-5. Like most diesels, the rich supply of torque (290 lb.-ft.) makes it feel quicker in real-world driving than the track number suggests, accompanied by engine acoustics that are recognizably diesel in quality but inoffensive in volume. The six-speed automatic is slick, though its ratio count is low by today’s standards; almost 2,500 rpm at 120 km/h in top seems rather busy for a diesel.\n\nCargo-volume stats are a little below average, but it looks competitive, and it’s usable: the rear deck is low, the back seat is 40/20/40 split, and the seat-backs fold nearly flat, with only a small step up from the trunk.\n\nIf your heart is set on a diesel, the CX-5 provides it in a practical and pleasing compact crossover package with unexpected towing capability. If you just want the best fuel efficiency in a compact crossover, a hybrid is a more cost-effective alternative.",

"Gdańsk was Polish in name only. Even in a city administered by Poles, Georgy explained, once there it was best we passed for Germans. We would be less conspicuous as Germans. Until we found a boat to take us south to France or England, we lurked in Gdańsk, sleeping in the open, evading the police, cadging food. And, with patience and a good deal of charm, in a week Georgy found such a boat, a collier, carrying Silesian coal bound for France. France, Georgy explained, was open to the immigration of foreigners. We could travel there without visas, and without much documentation, as long as we were honest with the French officials when we arrived. I knew no better, and Georgy had led our campaign so far. He knew people there. I would go to France and be a photographer.\n\nI don’t know what Georgy did to arrange our passage. Whatever he did, it was efficient, and uncomfortable. When we reached Le Havre, weeks later, I was much thinner and dirtier than in Poland, but I still had my small stake of money. (In Gdansk I learned how to exchange my few złoty for some French francs, but with the effect of the coup all around us, I do not think I made a good bargain.) In Le Havre, Georgy took me around to a market for used clothes. I replaced my filthy suit of clothes with a woolen jacket and vest and carefully-patched corduroy trousers. I needed a belt for the trousers because of their size, and the woman in the market gave me a badly-worn one for nothing, just to sell the trousers. I also bought two blue shirts like the labourers wore, and a neck scarf, a cloth cap, linen and socks. I didn’t have enough for new boots or a coat, but the weather was warmer and I thought I didn’t need a coat for the time-being, and my boots would have to do. When I was finished in the market, I looked more like a French workman than a starving Polish shop-clerk.\n\nLater that day, we walked out of town along the river, where the bargemen working the barges meant for Paris were arranging their loads. Georgy, once again the diplomat, talked us into work on a diesel barge – the Estelle – wrestling crates and bags below deck for Belgians, in exchange for a spot on deck among the parcels to sit and sleep. I remember the trip to Paris walking the path with the teams of horses and carters that towed the Panama barges, practicing a few words of French with the carters, savouring the spring weather, often outdistancing the diesels during the day – or on deck, laying on my back and gazing at the stars; that, days of grumbling diesel engines, and nights of hunger.\n\nOnce in Paris, I learned to follow my nose."

"Silicon Valley is the world capital of transformation, shaping the technologies that change how we live, work and play.\n\nAnd yet here are some of the headlines that have screamed across the globe in recent months: “Silicon Valley’s Sexism Problem” (The Economist). “Why Is Silicon Valley So Awful to Women?” (The Atlantic) “Women Engineers on the Rampant Sexism of Silicon Valley” (Wired).\n\nThe media doesn’t publish such articles without a news hook, and Silicon Valley, sadly, has been serving up plenty of them.\n\nLike the Uber fiasco – the allegations of sexual harassment and discrimination that, among other legal and ethical scandals, cost CEO Travis Kalanick his job.\n\nOr the U.S. Department of Labor investigation and federal lawsuit over alleged compensation disparities between men and women at Google.\n\nOr earlier accusations of sexual harassment accusations at GitHub, Tinder and other companies.\n\nOr the “Elephant in the Valley” survey that revealed a host of shocking findings about the issues facing women in the workplace, including that 60 percent of the 200 women interviewed had experienced unwanted sexual advances and that two-thirds felt excluded from important social and networking opportunities.\n\nIt’s mind-boggling to me that sexism is very much alive and well in 2017, and so much so in the place I’ve called home for more than 20 years and consider the embodiment of innovation and social progressivism.\n\nFact: Among the hundreds of startups we’ve represented, it’s rare to find a woman among the executive leadership.\n\nFact: I’ve seen eminently qualified women lose out on promotions to men more times than I care to count. (Twenty-one percent of American tech executives are female, compared with 36 percent in other industries, according to PayScale).\n\nFact: Men interrupting women, talking over them or punishing them for speaking out continues to be a thing.\n\nIt’s been years since I experienced discrimination personally – must be a combination of luck and hanging around with the right people – but I’ve heard too many war stories from too many colleagues and friends.\n\nSo am I surprised that Uber board member David Bonderman thought it was acceptable to joke that the addition of a second woman on the board would result in “more talking” (yuk yuk)?\n\nOr that a woman wrote on the New York Times’ Facebook page: “I work in the STEM tech-education industry. I have a mathematics degree, a geology degree and 15 years experience in teaching both math and science in a public school. In meetings with male peers where I am invited — because of my expertise, not my secretarial skills — I am asked a lot (80 percent of the time) to write important things down or to take notes. I have stopped taking my notebooks and pens to meetings”?\n\nNo. And even my own profession isn’t immune, as evidenced by this story: “All-Male PR Panel Tells Women They Can Fix Sexism by ‘Speaking Up More Loudly.’ “\n\nIt’s time to stop the madness. Every company in the Valley – established firms, startups, VCs, everybody — must adopt a strict zero-tolerance policy for sexual discrimination in all its obvious and subtle forms.\n\nThat includes wage disparity. Though several large firms in the Valley, including Facebook, LinkedIn and Apple, claim to have eliminated their gender wage gaps, inequality persists. According to recruiting firm Hired, women are paid less than men for the same job at the same tech company nearly seven out of 10 times. That’s shameful and must stop.\n\nOne of the answers to improving women’s status in tech is to get more women into tech. While women make up 47 percent of the overall work force, they represent only 23 percent in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) professions, according to a government report.\n\nThis is why our company and our client Distil Networks, along with Foundry Group, TechStars, Cooley, Yesware, Help Scout, Cloudability and Full Contract, recently announced the creation of the Women Forward in Technology Scholarship Program. The annual program will award several $3,000 scholarships to female undergraduate and graduate students committed to a STEM career. (For more details, see the press release.)\n\nConcrete action is needed to solve Silicon Valley’s sexism problem once and for all. Surely, a region that has given the world everything from the microprocessor to ubiquitous mobile computing, intelligent robots and self-driving cars is smart enough to fix this.\n\nJoanna Kulesa has been building successful agencies in Silicon Valley for 20 years. Her passion for outstanding client service is matched by her dedication to agency employees—reflected in its naming by Fortune as a Best Place to work for Camaraderie and a Best Place to Work for Women.

"Thomas Jefferson wrote in 1802 that the First Amendment created “a wall of separation between Church and State.” A case before the U.S. Supreme Court today could not only tear down that wall – it could declare that efforts by the states to enforce the wall are unconstitutional.",

"The case, Espinoza v. Montana Department of Revenue, concerns a Montana program that provides tax credits for donating to tuition scholarships for private schools, most of which are religious schools. A type of school voucher program, it’s not as blatant as the Indiana program that directly funds tuition for students in religious schools, but it accomplishes the same purpose.\n\nEND_OF_DOCUMENT_TOKEN_TO_BE_REPLACED\n\nLegislators have filed around 900 bills in the current session of the Indiana General Assembly, and there won’t be time in the short session to hear them all. One that should be a priority is Senate Bill 250, Sen. J.D. Ford’s proposal to ban discrimination by schools that receive state funding.",
null,
"The legislation pertains to Indiana’s $161 million voucher program, which funds tuition scholarships for students who attend private schools, nearly all of which are religious schools. Some of those schools discriminate against students and employees based on sexual orientation, disability and other factors.\n\n“No Hoosier should have their own tax dollars used against them in a discriminatory way,” Ford, an Indianapolis Democrat, said in a news release.\n\nThe issue gained attention when guidance counselors and a teacher at two Indianapolis Catholic high schools lost their jobs after church officials discovered they were in same-sex marriages. Those two schools, Roncalli and Cathedral, have received over $12 million in state voucher funding in the past six years.\n\nAlso, some voucher-funded Christian schools condemn homosexuality and require families and employees to sign “statements of faith.” Some voucher schools do not serve students with disabilities.\n\nAt a news conference to promote the bill, Ford was joined by Superintendent of Public Instruction Jennifer McCormick and Dominic Conover, a 2019 Roncalli High School graduate who said school officials warned him to be silent after he organized support for the school’s counselors.\n\nMcCormick said it’s contrary to Hoosier hospitality for the state to fund schools that turn away students and staff because of who they are and whom they love.\n\n“We’re talking about Indiana being a state where people want to work and live,” she said. “That should be for everyone who wants to come here and feel accepted and respected.”\n\nFord introduced a similar bill as a freshman legislator in 2019, but it didn’t get a hearing. Why might this year be different? For one thing, Ford said he has developed relationships that will help him make the case for the bill. For another, the issue has received a lot of attention, with fired Roncalli guidance director Shelly Fitzgerald the subject of media stories and an appearance on the “Ellen” show.\n\nReligious conservatives have a lot of clout with the General Assembly, and it’s likely that the Republicans who control the House and Senate would like for the bill to die a quiet death.\n\nBut lawmakers also answer to their constituents. If you think state-funded discrimination is an issue that the legislature should at least discuss, contact your representatives and let them know.\n\nCLARIFICATION: The transfer report counts 5,407 students who live in the Indianapolis Public Schools District and who attend IPS “innovation network schools” as having transferred out of the district to charter schools. (Innovation network schools are part of IPS but operate much like charter schools and have their own school boards). If those students were counted as attending IPS schools, the proportion of state-funded students in the district who attend IPS schools would be 66.5%\n\nNearly 14% of state-funded K-12 students in Indiana attend schools other than public schools in their local school district, according to a report released last week by the Indiana Department of Education.\n\nSome attend charter schools. Some attend private schools with help from state-funded tuition vouchers. But many transfer to public schools outside the district where they live, an option that has become increasingly common in the past decade.\n\nSome districts are hurt especially hard by school choice. In Gary Community Schools, only 36.4% of students who live in the district attend local public schools. In the Indianapolis Public Schools district, the figure is barely half.\n\nEND_OF_DOCUMENT_TOKEN_TO_BE_REPLACED\n\nIt’s great that the firing of gay teachers by Indiana Catholic schools is generating national attention – and a great deal of outrage. But the bigger issue is that Hoosier taxpayers are subsidizing this discrimination through the state’s voucher program.\n\nAnd the incidents in the news, involving three Indianapolis high schools, are just the tip of the iceberg.\n\nSchools under the purview of the Archdiocese of Indianapolis are now being required to terminate teachers who are in a same-sex marriage, and those schools received $38.6 million in voucher funds in the 2018-19 school year, according to Indiana Department of Education data.\n\nBut Indiana law lets private schools that receive vouchers discriminate against against students and their families as well as against employees. As Indiana University professor Suzanne Eckes and other scholars have shown, voucher programs in Indiana and other states allow schools to exclude students on the basis of religion, sexual orientation, gender identity and disability.\n\nEND_OF_DOCUMENT_TOKEN_TO_BE_REPLACED\n\nI don’t think Indiana Superintendent of Public Instruction Jennifer McCormick has ever been shy about saying what she thinks, but she seems to have become even more outspoken since announcing in October that she won’t seek re-election when her term expires in January 2021.",

"She called out legislators on several issues Wednesday in a Bloomington discussion sponsored by the Indiana Coalition of Public Education-Monroe County and the Monroe County Community School Corp.\n\nSchool funding: McCormick said the school funding increase in the budget that the Indiana House has approved – just over 2 percent each of the next two years – isn’t enough. Low pay and working conditions are creating a severe teacher shortage, she said, and more money is needed. Thirty-five percent of teachers leave the profession in their first five years.\n\nFunding for charter schools: She took issue with a budget provision that doubles grants to charter schools for transportation, buildings and technology to $1,000 per student – at a cost to the state of $77 million over two years. “If we’ve got $77 million,” she said, “let’s put it in the pot for everybody.”\n\nIndiana’s private-school voucher program: McCormick pointed out that the program was sold in 2011 as a way to help poor and minority students stuck in low-performing schools, but it has evolved into something quite different. Fifty-eight percent of voucher students never attended a public school. “Suburban whites are the ones taking advantage of it most,” she said. END_OF_DOCUMENT_TOKEN_TO_BE_REPLACED\n\nIndiana Republican legislators dropped a surprise Monday. They are proposing to increase state funding for some students who receive state-funded vouchers to attend private schools.\n\nCurrently, students who qualify by family income for free or reduced-price school lunches qualify for a voucher worth 90 percent of state per-pupil funding received by their local public school district.\n\nEND_OF_DOCUMENT_TOKEN_TO_BE_REPLACED\n\nMuch of initial reporting on a groundbreaking study of Indiana’s school voucher program, including mine, suggested that voucher students do OK academically if they stay in private schools for four years. But a closer look raises questions about that narrative.\n\nThe study’s headline finding is that voucher students, on average, fall significantly behind their public-school peers in math performance while faring about the same in English/language arts. Given what we know, that’s really the message policymakers and the public should take from the research.\n\nThe study, by Joe Waddington of the University of Kentucky and Mark Berends of the University of Notre Dame, was released Monday. Its findings were covered by National Public Radio, Chalkbeat, Education Week, the Indianapolis Star and the Fort Wayne Journal-Gazette. A headline in the Washington Post was typical: “School voucher recipients lose ground at first, then catch up to peers, studies find.”\n\nBut the students who “catch up” are only a handful among voucher students included in the study. The study analyzed test scores for 3,913 students who received vouchers during the first four years of the Indiana program, from 2011-12 to 2014-15. But they had four years of test-score data for only about 5 percent of those students.\n\nEND_OF_DOCUMENT_TOKEN_TO_BE_REPLACED\n\nJennifer McCormick, Indiana’s superintendent of public instruction, is showing herself to be a principled advocate for public schools, even if it means defying Republican orthodoxy on private school vouchers.\n\nAfter six years of experience with a fast-growing and largely unregulated voucher system, she told National Public Radio reporters, it’s time for Indiana to take a serious look at the program.\n\n“You know, we’re spending roughly $146 million on a program and not really reviewing it. That is irresponsible,” said McCormick, a Republican who took office in January.\n\nEND_OF_DOCUMENT_TOKEN_TO_BE_REPLACED\n\nThe Friedman Foundation for Educational Choice is out with a new public opinion survey featuring the surprising finding that seven in 10 Indiana registered voters favor school vouchers, which provide taxpayer-funded tuition payments for parents who send their children to private schools.\n\nThe survey finds vouchers are popular across the board – even with many Indiana Democrats and with supporters of Superintendent of Public Instruction Glenda Ritz, an outspoken voucher opponent.\n\nSo as for Friedman Foundation survey, consider the where it’s coming from. The foundation is an advocacy organization whose mission is to bring about the late economist Milton Friedman’s vision of privatizing education through universal state voucher programs that are open to all students.\n\nThe Indianapolis-based foundation has been conducting these state opinion surveys for a long time, and somehow they never fail to find strong support for vouchers. Researchers Jon Lorence and Gary Miron analyzed 10 of the Friedman Foundation surveys several years ago and concluded they were plagued with questionable sampling techniques, biased questions and other problems.\n\n“Contrary to the authors’ claims, the data provide little evidence that state public officials will increase their electability by supporting school choice policies,” they wrote in a review for the pro-public education National Education Policy Center. END_OF_DOCUMENT_TOKEN_TO_BE_REPLACED\n\nHere’s more evidence the Indiana school voucher program is costing the state money: The number of families attending private schools without vouchers has dropped dramatically since the state expanded the program, while the number of voucher students has exploded.\n\nThis suggests that many families who are receiving vouchers never intended to send their kids to public schools – they had or would have chosen private schools regardless, and they’re merely taking advantage of the voucher program to get free or reduced-cost tuition.\n\nAccording to a report on the program released in June by the Indiana Department of Education, there were 71,415 non-voucher students enrolled in Indiana private schools in 2012-13. By last year, the number had dropped to 55,385.\n\nIf voucher students would otherwise be attending Indiana public schools, the program would save the state money, because vouchers are for less than the full cost of educating a student at a public school. But if the students would be attending private schools with or without vouchers, the program costs the state money, because it increases the number of students receiving a state-funded education.

"It’s long been an inescapable fact about Apple’s iOS operating system for iPhones that you couldn’t change your default apps from Apple’s own. But just a few months after Apple changed course and allowed users to change the default email or browser apps, the same choice now seems to be coming for music streaming services.\n\nAfter Apple recently released the first public beta of iOS 14.5, a Reddit user quickly discovered that the first time they asked Siri to play a song after updating, they got a prompt to choose which streaming service to use. wanted to use. Subsequent prompts then obeyed that selection.\n\nOther users on Reddit and MacRumors confirmed similar experiences. They also confirmed that it works if you verbally specify the streaming service, for example by saying, “Hey Siri, play Heroes by David Bowie on Spotify.”\n\nBefore the iOS 14.5 beta, that was “on [service name here]phrasing was required every time you wanted to play a song on something other than Apple Music. But now you just have to say “on Spotify” the first time. Well, that seems to be the point anyway. This is a beta release, and the users who have shared their experiences say it’s buggy and inconsistent, only certain phrases work and sometimes the selection resets.\n\nAssuming the bugs are fixed, it could be a particular boon to Apple’s HomePod speakers. When we reviewed the first HomePod, we criticized it for only working well with Apple Music, while other (sometimes cheaper) smart speakers are more service-agnostic.\n\nWe’re not exactly sure why Apple has changed course so drastically on iOS default app behavior, but one possibility is that the company sees these changes as a way of hindering ongoing and upcoming antitrust investigations and lawsuits.\n\niOS 14.5 is expected to release in early spring and is also expected to introduce the much-discussed controversial opt-in requirement for user ad tracking that companies like Facebook have fought against in public. Should the default music service’s behavior change make it to the final public release of iOS 14.5, it will likely appear in iPadOS as well."
