https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Access%20%28British%20TV%20programme%29 | Access was a British entertainment news television programme created by Channel 5 that aired over both 5 and sister networks 5Select, 5Star, 5USA and Paramount Network. It was wholly unrelated to the American entertainment news programme Access Hollywood.
History
Access was previously two different shows, 5* Access and a show about Hollywood, but the two were combined to create the new format of Access in 2015. The theme music for Access was written by UK production company Noise Fusion. Outside the traditional half-hour version, shorter segments were used as interstital filler between programmes on the sister networks of Channel 5.
In 2021, the programme was replaced with Entertainment News on 5, which features a similar format.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OnePath%20Network | OnePath Network is an Australian Islamic-themed original content video production studio and media outlet based in Sydney, Australia. It was established in 2014 as a not-for-profit organization and da‘wah media network. It publishes videos, articles, news, and interviews, and produced the short film Last Chance.
History
OnePath network was founded in March 2014 in Sydney as a non-profit by Malaz Majanni as a da‘wah initiative; the goal was to create "values based" video content to counter negative views of Islam and Muslims and to generate news, documentaries, and commentary from a Muslim perspective. The network was started with $1M in donations from the Muslim community, and sought to grow by selling advertising aimed at young Muslims. It aimed to distribute its content through its website and apps, YouTube, Facebook, and occasionally in other outlets like movie theaters. The project was endorsed by Ibrahim Abu Mohamed, the Grand Mufti of Australia, and in April 2015 Irfan Yusuf endorsed the network in an editorial published in the Sydney Morning Herald.
Guests have included Brian McDonald, the head of the AFP counterterrorism team, and in 2016 they interviewed Oliver Bridgeman, who alleged that he had been trapped in Syria after the Australian Government cancelled his passport.
In October 2016 the OnePath Network produced Last Chance, a 45-minute film about a young Muslim man tempted into a life of selling drugs and violence, which was shown in movie theaters in Australia. By February 2018 the network had made and released around 400 videos.
Awards
At the 2016 Australian Muslim Achievement Awards, OnePath Network won Media Organisation of the Year, and one of its hosts was a finalist for Role Model of the Year. The following year, in 2017, the network won the award in the "media" category of Dubai's Islamic Economy Awards.
In 2023, OnePath Network was awarded YouTube's 1 Million subscriber creator award. https://www.youtube.com/OnePathNetwork

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genode | Genode is a free and open-source software operating system (OS) framework consisting of a microkernel abstraction layer and a set of user space components. The framework is notable as one of the few open-source operating systems not derived from a proprietary OS, such as Unix. The characteristic design philosophy is that a small trusted computing base is of primary concern in a security-oriented OS.
Genode can be used as a basis for a desktop computer or tablet OS or as a virtual machine monitor for guest operating systems. The framework has been used as a trusted component of secure virtualization systems for both x86 and ARM.
The small codebase of Genode makes it a flexible alternative to more complex Unix-derived operating systems. For this reason the framework has been used as a base system for research in such fields as virtualization, inter-process communication, IP stack isolation, monitoring, and software development.
History
Genode was first conceived as the Bastei OS Architecture research report at the Technical University of Dresden (TU Dresden). The focus of the report was to determine the practicality of a component-based OS using capability-based security. This report was motivated in part by research into L4 microhypervisors conducted during the same time. Following the success of an early prototype, the authors of the report founded the company Genode Labs to develop Bastei as the Genode OS Framework.
Releases
The project is developed publicly as an open source project released under the terms of the GNU Affero General Public License with a commercial entity offering alternative licensing. Releases are scheduled at three-month intervals to make changes to the system application binary interface (ABI), application programming interface (API), and issue documentation. The OS framework is available in source code form and following the 18.02 release a general purpose derivative named Sculpt is provided with on-target binary deployment.
Architectural features
Genode builds on the general philosophy of microkernels: the smaller and simpler the code, the easier it is to verify for trustworthiness and correctness. Genode extends this philosophy to user space by composing complex applications from small components. Each component exists in a strict hierarchy of parent-child relationships. Any component acting as a parent may apply resource and inter-process communication (IPC) access policies to its children. This hierarchical system layout yields intuitive partitioning and privilege deescalation as specialized subsystems are nested within more general subsystems, mitigating the confused deputy problem endemic to centralized or superuser system policy.
The framework is designed to be hosted by microkernels, however the features of any given microkernel fall mostly within a common set, and monolithic kernels implement a superset of those features. Abstracting these features allows Genode to act as user space for a variety of L4 micro |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dirty%20Computer | Dirty Computer is the third studio album by American singer and songwriter Janelle Monáe, released on April 27, 2018, by Wondaland Arts Society, Bad Boy Records and Atlantic Records. It is the follow-up to her studio albums The ArchAndroid (2010) and The Electric Lady (2013) and her first album not to continue the Cindi Mayweather Metropolis narrative.
A departure from the more psychedelic sound of her early work, Dirty Computer is a pop, funk, hip hop, R&B, and neo soul record, featuring elements of electropop, space rock, pop rock, Minneapolis soul, trap, futurepop, new wave, synthpop, and Latin music. Four singles, "Make Me Feel", "Django Jane", "Pynk", and "I Like That", were chosen to promote the album. Its release was accompanied by a 46-minute narrative film project of the same name.
The album received universal critical acclaim upon release; it was included in the top three of seven publications' Best Album of 2018 lists, and received two nominations at the 61st Annual Grammy Awards, including Album of the Year. It debuted at number six on the Billboard 200 and was further promoted by Monae's Dirty Computer Tour.
Background and recording
In October 2016, Monáe made her feature-length film acting debut in Moonlight, alongside Naomie Harris, André Holland, and Mahershala Ali. Monáe also starred in the film Hidden Figures, alongside actresses Taraji P. Henson and Octavia Spencer; the film was released in December 2016. While filming her two movie roles, Monáe remained active in music with features on Grimes' "Venus Fly" from her Art Angels album and also the soundtrack for the Netflix series The Get Down with a song titled, "Hum Along and Dance (Gotta Get Down)". She was also on the tracks "Isn't This the World" and "Jalapeño" for the Hidden Figures soundtrack. In an interview with People, Monáe revealed that she was already working on her third studio album when she received the scripts for her two first acting roles; therefore, she put the album on hold. She also revealed in the interview that she would be releasing new music sometime in 2017, although by the end of the year no album or single was announced.
It was confirmed by Monáe after "Make Me Feel" was released that Prince, with whom she collaborated on her preceding album, had worked on the single, as well as the entire album, before his death in 2016. This was confirmed after listeners noticed similarities between the single's sound and the late musician's work. Monae stated in an interview with BBC Radio 1: "Prince was actually working on the album with me before he passed on to another frequency, and helped me come up with some sounds. And I really miss him, you know, it’s hard for me to talk about him. But I do miss him, and his spirit will never leave me." The synth groove in "Make Me Feel", reported to be written by Prince, was played at one of his parties years prior to its inclusion in the single, as confirmed by Prince's DJ, Lenka Paris.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rethinking%20Economics | Rethinking Economics is a network of academic scholars and students in several countries that promotes pluralism in economics. It grew out of the broader International Student Initiative for Pluralist Economics and has groups in the United Kingdom, Italy, the Netherlands, India, Bangladesh, the US, Norway and many more countries. The goal of the movement is to open up the discipline to different schools of thought in economics other than neoclassical economics and to other disciplines in the social sciences. Another aim is to make economics more accessible to the broader public.
Background
In 2011, the Bank of England organized a conference ‘Are Economics Graduates Fit for Purpose?’ which although widely discussed did not lead to substantive changes in the way economics is taught in many universities. Subsequently, a group of Manchester economics students who were dissatisfied with the inertia of the economics discipline after the Great Recession founded the Post-Crash Economics Society.
Goals
The group campaigns for multiple changes in the research and teaching of economics, as well as for a different connection between economics and the public. Specifically, Rethinking Economics demands more real-world applicability of the contents in economics degrees. Moreover, they want to show that economic approaches are contested instead of being akin to physics-like laws, which makes it necessary to introduce students to a variety of approaches in orthodox and heterodox economics as well as equipping them with tools to critically evaluate these approaches. The campaign's goal is therefore not to displace Neoclassical economics but instead to let other approaches join the ranks in economics curricula and research. Another aim of the group is to make economic knowledge more widely available and breaking economists' monopoly of such knowledge.
Activities
The networks in the various countries are actively campaigning for changes in the curriculum of economics degrees. This includes lobbying with economics departments at universities, organizing public events and providing material to students and teachers in economics. The British Rethinking Economics group has to date published two books on the subject. In The Econocracy, a team of students links the dominance of neoclassical economics to an erosion of a wider democratic discussion about how the economy should be seen and organized. A second book called Rethinking Economics: An Introduction to Pluralist Economics provides an overview of different schools of thought in economics that are rarely included in introductory textbooks of economics. It includes chapters on several heterodox schools of thought written by leading academics in the field.
The Dutch branch of the organization has conducted an extensive curriculum review of undergraduate economics degrees in the Netherlands. Courses were evaluated according to different criteria such as how many different methods and schools of thought are taught, ho |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternating%20conditional%20expectations | Alternating conditional expectations (ACE) is an algorithm to find the optimal transformations between the response variable and predictor variables in regression analysis.
Introduction
In statistics, nonlinear transformation of variables is commonly used in practice in regression problems. Alternating conditional expectations (ACE) is one of the methods to find those transformations that produce the best fitting additive model. Knowledge of such transformations aids in the interpretation and understanding of the relationship between the response and predictors.
ACE transform the response variable and its predictor variables, to minimize the fraction of variance not explained. The transformation is nonlinear and is obtained from data in an iterative way.
Mathematical description
Let be random variables. We use to predict . Suppose are zero-mean functions and with these transformation functions, the fraction of variance of not explained is
Generally, the optimal transformations that minimize the unexplained part are difficult to compute directly. As an alternative, ACE is an iterative method to calculate the optimal transformations. The procedure of ACE has the following steps:
Hold fixed, minimizing gives
Normalize to unit variance.
For each , fix other and , minimizing and the solution is::
Iterate the above three steps until is within error tolerance.
Bivariate case
The optimal transformation for satisfies
where is Pearson correlation coefficient. is known as the maximal correlation between and . It can be used as a general measure of dependence.
In the bivariate case, ACE algorithm can also be regarded as a method for estimating the maximal correlation between two variables.
Software implementation
The ACE algorithm was developed in the context of known distributions. In practice, data distributions are seldom known and the conditional expectation should be estimated from data. R language has a package acepack which implements ACE algorithm. The following example shows its usage:
library(acepack)
TWOPI <- 8 * atan(1)
x <- runif(200, 0, TWOPI)
y <- exp(sin(x) + rnorm(200)/2)
a <- ace(x, y)
par(mfrow=c(3,1))
plot(a$y, a$ty) # view the response transformation
plot(a$x, a$tx) # view the carrier transformation
plot(a$tx, a$ty) # examine the linearity of the fitted model
Discussion
The ACE algorithm provides a fully automated method for estimating optimal transformations in multiple regression. It also provides a method for estimating maximal correlation between random variables. Since the process of iteration usually terminates in a limited number of runs, the time complexity of the algorithm is where is the number of samples. The algorithm is reasonably computer efficient.
A strong advantage of the ACE procedure is the ability to incorporate variables of quite different type in terms of the set of values they can assume. The transformation functions assume values on the real line. Their arguments can, how |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory%20protection%20unit | A memory protection unit (MPU), is a computer hardware unit that provides memory protection. It is usually implemented as part of the central processing unit (CPU). MPU is a trimmed down version of memory management unit (MMU) providing only memory protection support. It is usually implemented in low power processors that require only memory protection and do not need the full-fledged feature of a memory management unit like virtual memory management.
Overview
The MPU allows the privileged software to define memory regions and assign memory access permission and memory attributes to each of them. Depending on the implementation of the processor, the number of supported memory regions will vary. The MPU on ARMv8-M processors supports up to 16 regions. The memory attributes define the ordering and merging behaviors of these regions, as well as caching and buffering attributes. Cache attributes can be used by internal caches, if available, and can be exported for use by system caches.
MPU monitors transactions, including instruction fetches and data accesses from the processor, which can trigger a fault exception when an access violation is detected. The main purpose of memory protection is to prevent a process from accessing memory that has not been allocated to it. This prevents a bug or malware within a process from affecting other processes, or the operating system itself.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Araneta%20City%20Cyberpark | The Araneta City Cyberpark is a office development located in the Araneta City in Cubao, Quezon City. Located along the southern part of the mixed-use commercial development, the office complex is currently undergoing a ₱20 billion redevelopment under a new master plan, consisting of five green office towers, retail spaces, and an outdoor park. The ongoing development currently includes 2 towers completed, and one tower under construction, with of office space completed as of January 2021.
The complex is designed by ASYA Design and ACI Inc. serves as the owner and developer of the project. The redevelopment project is part of the Araneta City Master Plan.
History
First Master Plan (2007-2008)
The Araneta City Cyberpark is part of the Araneta City master plan unveiled in 2000, and was rolled out in 2002, situated in an property along Gen. Aguinaldo, Gen. Araneta, and Gen. McArthur Avenues, primarily for Business Process Outsourcing/Information Technology (BPO-IT) office development. The development sits on a jeepney terminal servicing areas around Quezon City and the Province of Rizal, and the private Araneta White House (Bahay na Puti) complex. The development also sits on the former lot occupied by Fiesta Carnival, a amusement park formerly occupying the Shopwise Hypermarket complex. As the carnival declined in the 1990s due to rising competition from other amusement parks, mall-based entertainment, political unrest, and other technological shifts, the Araneta Group decided to move the carnival into an open lot located in the south west corner lot of the complex, across SM Cubao. Unfortunately, the outdoor complex did not click the public and was completely closed down years later.
From the beginning of the late 1990s to 2001, the steady rise of the demand of business process outsourcing firms being founded in the country continues to contribute to the country's GDP through foreign and local investments, which also contributed to the creation of jobs in various sectors, and enabling the country to take a spot in the global outsourcing market in 2005 by attributing a total average of 3% of the total global output, making the BPO industry one of the fastest growing industries in the country. Developments for BPO related industries flourished further during the Arroyo administration as part of their economic programs. Due to the huge market potential of the industry and the successful launches of various BPO companies, the rising BPO industry also attracted the Araneta Group and prompted the company to launch the Cyberpark Master Plan in 2000, which also began to develop similar properties to cater the rapid rise of the industry, starting with the completion of the Gateway Office Building in 2005, which is primarily occupied by Accenture. The Cyberpark also became part of the finalized Araneta Center Redevelopment Plan in 2006, following the opening of the Gateway Mall in 2004, which also featured the Manhattan Gardens, the Gateway Tower, |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antigraviator | Antigraviator is an anti-gravity racing video game developed by Belgian developer Cybernetic Walrus and published by Iceberg Interactive on June 6, 2018, for Microsoft Windows. It was ported to PlayStation 4 on October 29, 2019, and to Xbox One on May 1, 2020.
Premise
Antigraviator's setting is described as a near future where racing has gotten very popular due to scientific breakthroughs in anti-gravity and terraforming. As a result of these breakthroughs, the antigraviator tournament was born. The anti-gravity ships used in this tournament are called 'Gravs'.
Gameplay
Antigraviator is an anti-gravity racing game in the vein of Wipeout and F-Zero, to which the game has been compared. The game has a single-player mode and a multiplayer mode that supports up to eight players. The game features no speed limit, as a result the game says to be the fastest game ever made.
Development
Antigraviator was expected to release in Q2 2018 for Windows PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. The game developer is Belgian indie studio Cybernetic Walrus. Cybernetic Walrus is composed of alumni of Howest University in Belgium. The game is made using the Unity engine. The game was announced to receive a Kickstarter campaign in April 2017. Subsequently, the game failed to receive funding.
After the Kickstarter campaign, Dutch publisher Iceberg Interactive signed the game for a Q2 2018 multi-platform release. The game is set to be localized in English, French, German, Italian, Russian, and Simplified Chinese.
Antigraviator was developed using the Unity engine, which Unity Technologies has taken notice of. The game was selected for exhibiting at the Unite Austin 2017 Made with Unity showcase, where “unique games of varying styles, genres, mechanics, and platforms” where chosen to exhibit. Cybernetic Walrus' CEO Mike Coeck and Environment Artist Szabolcs Csizmadia was invited as a speaker to Unite Austin 2017. They gave a lecture on how the Cybernetic Walrus team used Unity 2017 to develop Antigraviator. In addition, assets from the game were used in the Unite Austin training day, where attendees learned to create an anti-gravity racing game of their own using Antigraviator's assets. The training series was later released through YouTube.
Reception
Antigraviator received "mixed or average" reviews, according to review aggregator Metacritic.
Destructoid reviewed the game positively while noting that Antigraviator's attempts to differentiate itself from other games of its genre failed to add to the overall package, and wrote, "The track design is solid, the sense of speed is great, and controls are tight and feel familiar for anyone who’s played a racing game." Push Square, by contrast, disliked the game due to its unwieldy handling, dysfunctional trap system, and poor presentation in spite of its sense of speed and variety of modes.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National%20Cycle%20Route%2070 | National Cycle Network (NCN) Route 70 is a Sustrans National Route that runs from Walney Island in Cumbria to Sunderland. The route is fully open and signed. From end to end the route is , but two sections are shared with other NCN routes leaving Route 70 at .
History
Route 70 is the original route of the W2W challenge route which was launched on 1 June 2005. When launched the route used sections of NCN Routes 72, 68 and 71 west of the Pennines. From Tan Hill to Sunderland a new Regional Route was created and given the number 20, with a blue background. In 2012, after improvements to meet National Cycle Network standards, it was upgrade to Route 70. Route signs were changed to the number 70 with a red background. Around the same time the sections on the route that had previously been Route 71 and 72 were re-signed as Route 70.
Route
Walney to Oxenholme
The eastern section is . From Walney Island in the Irish Sea it goes on to the industrial port of Barrow-in-Furness. It then runs through the Furness peninsula, passing the towns of Ulverston and the picturesque Grange-Over-Sands where the route follows the Promenade. The route continues to skirt the Lake District national park to Oxenholme, with a short branch from there to the historical market town of Kendal
Oxenholme to Barnard Castle
The central section is . On reaching the Lune Valley the route joins the Pennine Cycleway (Route 68) and is signed accordingly from there for the miles to Asby.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic%20transparency | Economic transparency refers to banks and other financial institutions that have made data available about their financial position and condition. However, the definition depends on the perspective of different research areas through which it is examined, mainly monetary economics, international finance, corporate finance, and others (e.g. public economics, international trade, asset pricing, and labor economics). The WTO defines economic transparency as a “degree to which trade policies and practices, and the process by which they are established, are open and predictable.” (WTO’s 2014 glossary). United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD, 2012) relates to transparency as to “a state of affairs in which the participants in the investment process are able to obtain sufficient information from each other in order to make informed decisions and meet obligations and commitments”. According to the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) there are three main branches: transparency in economic policy, in the institutional structures surrounding the markets, and in the corporate sector.
Since financial crises in emerging market economies in the 1990s, the Asian financial crises in 1997-1998 among them, weakness of institutions, lack of transparency in actual balance-sheets of firms, unintelligible corporate structures, and incomprehensible financial markets have revealed as a fundamental issue. The following corporate fraud scandals in the United States and Europe (e.g. Enron, Tyco, WorldCom) in the early 2000s amplified the importance of this issue even more. Finally, the financial collapse of renowned industries provoked demands for greater transparency to help improve corporate governance in the United States and other industrialized countries.
Fiscal transparency is perceived to be essential for informed decision making, for guaranteeing some accountability, and for maintaining fiscal discipline.
Central banks differ considerably in the ways in which they have become more transparent. The Bank of England has been a leading example in this regard.
Role of asymmetric information
So to consider the need for economic transparency, an asymmetrical distribution of information between different economic agents has to occur. Full transparency may not necessarily mean that all information is complete and publicly accessible, but that there is no asymmetry in distributing private information between those economic actors.
Increasing transparency contributes to the reduction of information asymmetries. Transparency concerning quality and intent (or effort) is sometimes referred to as ” ex-ante transparency“ (associated with predictability) whereby ” ex-post transparency“ means transparency of outcomes (associated with accountability).
Two main types of problems resulting from asymmetries are adverse selection and moral hazard problems. The distinction between those two is based on timing: adverse selection regards behavior before a c |

Public voting for the Most Popular Award categories ran from 5 March to 1 April 2018, with the shortlist of nominees revealed on 27 May. Voting reopened for the Popular Award categories on 29 June and remained open until the start of the ceremony, with each person given one extra vote in each category.
The red carpet arrivals was hosted by Karl Stefanovic and Georgie Gardner.
Each network is restricted in the number of personalities and programs they can submit for consideration in the publicly voted category, including up to 10 names in both the Most Popular Actor and Actress categories, 15 names for Most Popular Presenter and 5 programs for Most Popular Drama. These restrictions often lead to controversy over those who are not listed in the voting form, and as a result, they are not eligible to be nominated for an award.
Nominees
Nominees were announced on 27 May 2018.

Changes
As well as the introduction of "live voting" for 10 categories, the total number of categories were reduced from 27 at last year's ceremony to 20. 10 of the categories were voted for by the public, while the remaining 10 Outstanding Awards were industry voted. Publicly voted awards also reverted to being named "Most Popular" rather than "Best," which was introduced at the 2016 ceremony.
With the ceremony being held later in the year than previous events to avoid clashing with the 2018 Commonwealth Games also being held on the Gold Coast, the nomination eligibility was extended, meaning shows airing before 31 March 2018 could qualify for nomination. This marked the first Logie Awards to be held on the Gold Coast, after the Government of Victoria stopped providing funding for the event.

The estimator has a breakdown point of 50%. Although it is equivariant under scaling, or under linear transformations of either its explanatory variable or its response variable, it is not under affine transformations that combine both variables. It can be calculated in time by brute force, in time using more sophisticated techniques, or in randomized expected time. It may also be calculated using an on-line algorithm with update time.
Method
The repeated median method estimates the slope of the regression line for a set of points as

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neural%20architecture%20search | Neural architecture search (NAS) is a technique for automating the design of artificial neural networks (ANN), a widely used model in the field of machine learning. NAS has been used to design networks that are on par or outperform hand-designed architectures. Methods for NAS can be categorized according to the search space, search strategy and performance estimation strategy used:
The search space defines the type(s) of ANN that can be designed and optimized.
The search strategy defines the approach used to explore the search space.
The performance estimation strategy evaluates the performance of a possible ANN from its design (without constructing and training it).
NAS is closely related to hyperparameter optimization and meta-learning and is a subfield of automated machine learning (AutoML).
Reinforcement learning
Reinforcement learning (RL) can underpin a NAS search strategy. Barret Zoph and Quoc Viet Le applied NAS with RL targeting the CIFAR-10 dataset and achieved a network architecture that rivals the best manually-designed architecture for accuracy, with an error rate of 3.65, 0.09 percent better and 1.05x faster than a related hand-designed model. On the Penn Treebank dataset, that model composed a recurrent cell that outperforms LSTM, reaching a test set perplexity of 62.4, or 3.6 perplexity better than the prior leading system. On the PTB character language modeling task it achieved bits per character of 1.214.
Learning a model architecture directly on a large dataset can be a lengthy process. NASNet addressed this issue by transferring a building block designed for a small dataset to a larger dataset. The design was constrained to use two types of convolutional cells to return feature maps that serve two main functions when convoluting an input feature map: normal cells that return maps of the same extent (height and width) and reduction cells in which the returned feature map height and width is reduced by a factor of two. For the reduction cell, the initial operation applied to the cell’s inputs uses a stride of two (to reduce the height and width). The learned aspect of the design included elements such as which lower layer(s) each higher layer took as input, the transformations applied at that layer and to merge multiple outputs at each layer. In the studied example, the best convolutional layer (or "cell") was designed for the CIFAR-10 dataset and then applied to the ImageNet dataset by stacking copies of this cell, each with its own parameters. The approach yielded accuracy of 82.7% top-1 and 96.2% top-5. This exceeded the best human-invented architectures at a cost of 9 billion fewer FLOPS—a reduction of 28%. The system continued to exceed the manually-designed alternative at varying computation levels. The image features learned from image classification can be transferred to other computer vision problems. E.g., for object detection, the learned cells integrated with the Faster-RCNN framework improved performance by 4 |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tabitha%20Goldstaub | Tabitha Goldstaub is a British tech entrepreneur who specialises in communicating the impact of artificial intelligence. She is the co-founder of CogX, a festival and online platform. She is also the chair of the UK government's AI Council, a member of the DCMS Digitial Economy Council and on the TechUK board. A serial entrepreneur, she was the co-founder of video distribution company Rightster (IPO 2011). Tabitha is the author of How To Talk To Robots - A Girls' Guide to a World Dominated by AI. She's also an advisor to Tortoise Media, Raspberry Pi, CarbonRe, Monumo, Cambridge Innovation Capital and The Alan Turing Institute.
Early life and education
Goldstaub attended Bedales School, which she graduated in 2004. Her mother is Jane Procter, who edited Tatler magazine for nine years. She completed an Art Foundation in graphic design at Wimbledon College of Arts. She earned a bachelor's degree in Advertising at University of the Arts London.
Career
After graduating, Goldstaub joined online television network t5m, where she became Director of Video Syndication. Here she spotted market space to "help rights holders, brands and influencers distribute and monetise their content". Goldstaub went on to co-found Righster (now Brave Bison) in 2011 with entrepreneur Charlie Muirhead. She held roles as head of brand solutions, head of fashion, marketing director and general manager of the New York office. In 2012 The Guardian partnered with Righster to improve their YouTube content. Righster floated in November 2013 for £20.4 million. She was key in organising the first instances of live streaming from London Fashion Week, with IMG and the British Fashion Council. In 2012 she was listed in Media Week's "30 Under 30". In 2014 she was listed in the London Evening Standard newspaper's Silicon 60.
Goldstaub is the co-founder of CognitionX, “Expert Advice Platform”. This organisation was created with the intention to offer business the chance to learn about and use AI. Goldstaub is particularly concerned about AI's potential for gender bias, “When you look at what’s going on in AI with a feminist cap on, it becomes very apparent that the biases that already exist in society will be exacerbated or reinforced,”. In an interview with London Evening Standard, she compared AI to a child, "learning from what it hears...If you train AI based on racist, sexist information, you can’t be surprised that it becomes racist and sexist".
In June 2017, Goldstaub arranged the inaugural CogX, a two-day ‘Innovation Exchange’ for 1,500 delegates discussing how AI will shape the future of society. CogX 2018 saw 6,500 attendees and over 370 speakers at Tobacco Dock.
In October 2017 Marie Claire described Goldstaub as a Future Shaper. She was listed in the London Evening Standard's "The Progress 1000: London's most influential people". Goldstaub lives by the Karen Spärck Jones quotation "computing is too important to be left to men". She is represented by Curtis Brown (li |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Take%20Me%20Out%20%28Australian%20game%20show%29 | Take Me Out was an Australian television dating game show hosted by Joel Creasey and premiered on the Seven Network from 3 September 2018 until 27 November 2018. The show was filmed at Fox Studios Australia.
Take Me Out is essentially based on the same format as Taken Out, a 2008 dating game show developed by FremantleMedia and hosted by James Kerley. International versions of the show began screening in Denmark as Dagens Mand (Today's Man) from 2008, with the Netherlands the first country to use the title "Take Me Out" in 2009. Other successful versions have screened in the United Kingdom and Ireland.
In June 2019, the series was cancelled and would not return for a second season.
Format
The objective of the show is for a single man to obtain a date with one of thirty single women. The women stand on stage underneath thirty white lights, each with a button in front of them. A single man is then brought on stage and tries to persuade the women to agree to a date in a series of rounds, playing a pre-recorded video discussing his background, displaying a skill (such as dancing or playing a musical instrument), or playing another video in which the man's friends or family reveal more about his virtues and philosophy.
At any point during the rounds, the women can press the button in front of them to turn off their light if they do not believe a date with this man would be constructive to their well-being and if this occurs, their area of the stage will turn red. If, at the end of three rounds, there are lights still left on, the bachelor will turn off all but two remaining lights. He will then have a chance to ask one question to the last two women, before choosing which woman he wants to go on the date with by turning off one more light.
Alternatively, if the man had been left with two lights at the end of round 3, he will just ask his question to the two remaining women but if there is only one light left at the end of round 3, he will go on the date with that girl without asking her his question. If all the women turn off their lights before the end of the third round - this is referred to as a blackout - then the man must leave the show without going on a date.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National%20Data%20Sharing%20and%20Accessibility%20Policy | The Union Cabinet of India approved the National Data Sharing and Accessibility Policy (NDSAP) on 9 February 2012. The objective of the policy is to facilitate access to Government of India owned shareable data and information in both human readable and machine readable forms.
Scope
A large quantum of data generated using public funds by various organizations and institutions in the country remains inaccessible to the public, although most of such data may be non-sensitive in nature and could be used by public for scientific, economic and developmental purposes. There has been an increasing demand by the community, that such data collected with the deployment of public funds should be made more readily available to all, for enabling rational debate, better decision making and use in meeting civil society needs. The NDSAP policy is designed to promote data sharing and enable access to Government of India owned data for national planning, development and awareness.
The National Data Sharing and Accessibility Policy (NDSAP) is applicable to all shareable non-sensitive data available either in digital or analog forms but generated using public funds by various ministries, departments, subordinate offices, organizations, and agencies of Government of India as well as of the states. The objective of this policy is to facilitate access to Government of India owned shareable data through a wide area network, thereby permitting a wider accessibility and usage by public. The principles on which data sharing and accessibility need to be based include: openness, flexibility, transparency, quality, security and efficiency,.
The motivation behind this policy is United Nations Rio Declaration on Environment and Development, Principle 10: "Environmental issues are best handled with the participation of all concerned citizens, at the relevant level. At the national level, each individual shall have appropriate access to information concerning the environment that is held by public authorities,...and the opportunity to participate in decision-making processes. States shall facilitate and encourage public awareness and participation by making information widely available." and Right to Information Act, 2005, Section 4 (2): "It shall be a constant endeavour of every public authority to take steps in accordance with the requirements of clause (b) of sub-section (1) to provide as much information suo motu to the public at regular intervals through various means of communications, including internet, so that the public have minimum resort to the use of this Act to obtain information.". Some state governments such as Sikkim, Madhya Pradesh, Telangana, Odisha, Assam, etc. have created their own policy on the lines of NDSAP.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ONAP | ONAP (Open Network Automation Platform), is an open-source, orchestration and automation framework. It is hosted by The Linux Foundation.
History
On February 23, 2017, ONAP was announced as a result of a merger of the OpenECOMP and Open-Orchestrator (Open-O) projects. The goal of the project is to develop a widely used platform for orchestrating and automating physical and virtual network elements, with full lifecycle management.
ONAP was formed as a merger of OpenECOMP, the open source version of AT&T's ECOMP project, and the Open-Orchestrator project, a project begun under the aegis of the Linux Foundation with China Mobile, Huawei and ZTE as lead contributors. The merger brought together both sets of source code and their developer communities, who then elaborated a common architecture for the new project.
The first release of the combined ONAP architecture, code named "Amsterdam", was announced on November 20, 2017. The next release ("Beijing") was released on June 12, 2018.
As of January, 2018, ONAP became a project within the LF Networking Fund, which consolidated membership across multiple projects into a common governance structure. Most ONAP members became members of the new LF Networking fund.
Overview
ONAP provides a platform for real-time, policy-driven orchestration and automation of physical and virtual network functions that will enable software, network, IT and cloud providers and developers to rapidly automate new services and support complete lifecycle management.
ONAP incorporates or collaborates with other open-source projects, including OpenDaylight, FD.io, OPNFV and others.
Contributing organizations include AT&T, Samsung, Nokia, Ericsson, Orange, Huawei, Intel, IBM and more.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FS%20Class%20E.220 | FS Class E.220 was a two-axle electric locomotive, powered by a third rail, built for operation on the Varese line of the Italian Rete Mediterranea (Mediterranean Network) and registered as RM 02. It was acquired by the Italian State Railways in 1918 and re-registered as 220.01. It remained a unique example.
Overview
The locomotive was built by Carminati & Toselli in 1912 for shunting, freight trains and passenger trains on the third-rail electrified railway line Milan - Varese - Porto Ceresio, operated by Società per le Strade Ferrate del Mediterraneo. The electrical equipment was supplied by General Electric. The total power output was 220 kW (1 hour) or 150 kW (continuous) and the maximum speed was 50 km/h. The two traction motors were geared directly to the axles. It appears to have been "deported" by German troops fleeing in 1945 and abandoned in Austria where it was converted to power supply from accumulators. In 1961 it was in Linz awaiting scrapping.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entropy%20network | Entropy networks have been investigated in many research areas, on the assumption that entropy can be measured in a network. The embodiment of the network is often physical or informational. An entropy network is composed of entropy containers which are often called nodes, elements, features, or regions and entropy transfer occurs between containers. The transfer of entropy in networks was characterized by Schreiber in his transfer entropy.
Physical basis
A discrete physical basis for entropy networks can be found in the observation, and discussions of discrete observations appear briefly in the work of Prokopenko, Lizier & Price. More complete discussions of observations were offered by Leo Szilárd and Léon Brillouin.
Structures and motifs
Network motifs have been proposed to be scale independent. Networks have been classified by total entropy. The entropy content of graphs has been considered throughout fields of math and computer science.
Design of entropy networks and in depth investigation has been publicized by Wissner-Gross and Freer who have proposed a time entropy relation (where entropy is maximized of a lifespan) through which predictions of the emergence of complexity can be shown.
Domains of study
The role of entropy networks in formation of structures is critical in engineering and its physical implications determine chirality, organize biological molecules, and quantify the topologies of condensed matter (mass) networks.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Make%20Me%20Feel%20%28Janelle%20Mon%C3%A1e%20song%29 | "Make Me Feel" is a song by American singer Janelle Monáe, released on February 22, 2018 as the lead single from her third studio album, Dirty Computer. This marks her return after a three-year hiatus. A departure from her longtime songwriting-production team of Nathaniel Irvin III and Roman GianArthur Irvin, Monáe co-wrote the song with Julia Michaels, Mattias Larsson, Robin Fredriksson, and Justin Tranter. Several critics compared it to the work of Prince, while Monáe herself has stated that Prince helped create sounds for the album, including for "Make Me Feel". It became Monáe's second single as a lead artist to chart on the US Billboard Hot 100, debuting at number 99 on the week of March 10, 2018.
Critical reception
Writing for Pitchfork, Marcus J. Moore says of Monáe and the song, "The polymath unpacks a rubbery funk tune that recalls the likes of Prince and Sheila E. Her 1980s influences are clear, down to each massive synth line and the feeling of raw sensual energy woven throughout the song." Tatiana Pile of Spin wrote, "The single is a high-energy funk song with some reverent similarities to Prince's 'Kiss' ... With this bouncy single, Monáe taps into her unique soul-pop sound to deliver a song reminiscent of past tracks such as 'Q.U.E.E.N.' and 'Dance Apocalyptic'." In 2019, Billboard included the song in its list of the "30 Lesbian Love Songs".
Music video
The single's official music video was uploaded to YouTube on February 22, 2018, the day of the single's release. Directed by frequent music video collaborator Alan Ferguson, the music video features Monáe and actress Tessa Thompson in a nightclub. Referred to by Monáe as an "emotion picture", the video heavily resembles the nightclub and plot shown in the Black Mirror episode, "San Junipero". Throughout the video, Monáe is seen flirting with both Thompson and a man; at one point she runs between the two as if she cannot decide which one she wants. Ultimately, she dances with both. Also throughout the video, the colors of the bisexual pride flag are displayed in the overhead lighting, so-called "bisexual lighting". The music video, as well as the song, was praised as a "bisexual anthem."
Writing for Billboard, Natalie Maher states the video, "takes a more Prince-inspired approach, both musically and aesthetically, with the actress hitting an '80s-esque club with actress Tessa Thompson, and serving some of the best moves and looks we've seen from her. The video also features what seems to be an allusion to Robert Palmer's iconic '80s videos, with Monae playing a similarly white guitar, backed by her own group of funky female dancers."
The video received two nominations at the 35th MTV Video Music Awards in the categories "Best Art Direction" and "Best Editing".
Live performances
Monáe has performed the song live on The Voice, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Austin City Limits, 61st Annual Grammy Awards, and 2019 Lollapalooza.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Django%20Jane | "Django Jane" is a song recorded by singer and songwriter Janelle Monáe, released on February 22, 2018 as the second single, alongside "Make Me Feel", from her third studio album, Dirty Computer. The song features Monáe rapping instead of singing and makes a direct reference to Monáe's debut studio album, The ArchAndroid. Lyrically, it has many black feminist themes. A music video was released on the same day as the single.
Background
On February 16, 2018, Monáe revealed her third studio album, entitled Dirty Computer, through a teaser video released on YouTube. Following up on that announcement, she released both "Django Jane" and "Make Me Feel" as the first two singles from the album.
In an interview with The Guardian, Monáe stated "Django Jane" is "a response to me feeling the sting of the threats being made to my rights as a woman, as a black woman, as a sexually liberated woman, even just as a daughter with parents who have been oppressed for many decades. Black women and those who have been the 'other', and the marginalised in society – that's who I wanted to support, and that was more important than my discomfort about speaking out."
Critical reception
Writing for XXL, C. Vernon Coleman II states, "The track finds JM tapping into a hip-hop vein and seriously going hard with the rap bars. The singer chooses a heavy-hitting track, as the punching bass kicks drive the instrumental."
Music video
The official music video for the single was uploaded to YouTube on February 22, 2018, the same day as the single's release. The "emotion picture" was directed by Andrew Donoho and Chuck Lightning. In the video, Monáe is surrounded by many women and is shown wearing both a red and green suit. During one scene, she visually references a scene from Sebastián Lelio's Chilean film A Fantastic Woman. After being asked about Monáe using such a significant scene from his 2017 film, Lelio stated, "I love Janelle Monaé and I love her new song. I don't know if she saw 'A Fantastic Woman' and if the moment with the round mirror between Marina's legs inspired her. But anyway, it's exciting to see it reflected — pun intended — in her new video."
Writing for Billboard, Natalie Maher states, "Sitting atop a throne, and surrounded by a female army in matching suits, Monae delivers an empowering anthem on "Django Jane." On the track, she confidently raps about gender, race and the intersection of it all: "Remember when they used to say I looked too man-ish, black girl magic, y'all cant stand it." Of course, the video also features mentions of "pussy power," and raised-fist symbolism." C. Vernon Colemen of XXL states, "The visual is directed by Andrew Donoho and finds Janelle playing the role of crown-holder as she takes her place on her throne, while surrounded by a group of women who look like they mean business. They later break out into a choreographed dance routine while Janelle spits her bars."

He is credited with the development of the biomedical engineering department with the University of Rochester Medical Center.
In May 2021, LeBlanc said he would retire from his position at GWU at the end of the 2021–2022 academic year. However, in September 2021, GWU's Board of Trustees Chair Grace E. Speights said LeBlanc would step down at the end of 2021, to be replaced by former Washington University in St. Louis Chancellor Mark S. Wrighton on an interim basis while a search is being conducted for a permanent replacement.
Controversies
On February 1, 2020, a video was posted to the George Washington University Overheard Facebook page where a freshman at the university, Sophie Gengler, asked President LeBlanc about divestment from fossil fuels. In the video, LeBlanc admitted for the first time that 3% of the university's endowment is indirectly invested in the fossil fuels industry through buying funds that invest in "whatever they want to invest in" which includes the carbon industry. This, along with other points the president made about the university's relationship with climate change activism and deniers, sparked a student protest and several petitions demanding for the university to divest immediately.
In the same video, LeBlanc criticized majority rule over GW policy by saying, "What if the majority of the students agreed to shoot |

Reception
Renee Longstreet for Common Sense Media gave the film a three out of five star rating and commented: "If derring-do and physical conflict are popular with girls as well as boys in today's marketplace, Warner Bros., DC Comics, and Lego have created a franchise that continues to build an audience. How enviable that is remains a question that parents and professionals consider. Does the violence go down easier for an 8-year-old when the participants are tiny plastic toys? Lego DC SuperHero Girls: Super-Villain High is filled with scenes of can-do girls battling and outwitting the power-hungry Lena Luthor and her temporary accomplices. The story is easy to follow, has suspense and a few mild twists and turns, and does offer some opportunities for messages about friendship, trust, competition, and teamwork. And there's some fun as well, as the girls -- in control at all times -- prove to be as unstoppable as they are smart and kind".

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruiner%20%28video%20game%29 | Ruiner is a cyberpunk twin-stick shooter video game developed by Reikon Games and published by Devolver Digital. It was released for Linux, Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One on 26 September 2017 and for Nintendo Switch on 18 June 2020.
Gameplay
Ruiner is a shoot 'em up played from an isometric perspective. The game takes place in 2091 and is set in a cyberpunk metropolis known as Rengkok. The player takes control of a silent, masked protagonist who attempts to rescue their kidnapped brother from a failing conglomerate, known as Heaven, that controls Rengkok.
Plot
Ruiner takes place in 2091 in Rengkok and its surrounding facilities, owned by Heaven, a conglomerate led by a man referred to in-game as the Boss. Initially the player character, a silent protagonist dubbed "Puppy" by another character, is being led by a rogue hacker named Wizard to assassinate the Boss. Before he reaches the Boss's office, the signal from Wizard to the protagonist is overridden by another hacker known only as Her. Her explains to Puppy that Wizard was contracted by another group and that his brother has been kidnapped, and urges him to track Wizard down. She leads him to a territory filled with Creeps, a group of psychotic gangsters led by a swordsman named Nerve. After fighting his way through the Creeps' territory, Nerve challenges Puppy to a duel and is defeated in battle. Earning the Creeps' leadership, they find Wizard and hack into his brain, killing him in the process and leading them to the Hanza Compound, a factory that manufactures machine parts. Her tracks Puppy's brother down with a signal leading to him.
They are greeted by armed guards and the angry AI that manages the compound, Mother. Puppy fights his way through the Hanza facility and fights against mercenaries hired by TrafficKing, a cyborg in the form of a UFO-like device piloted by a human head, who runs the facility alongside Mother and presumably contracted Wizard. As he follows the signal that leads to his brother, Puppy battles Mother and then TrafficKing, hacking his brain to reveal where his brother is being taken; the Imagination Farms, which use human beings as hosts to lend brainpower for running Virtuality, a virtual reality device that Heaven manufactures and sells to civilians. As TrafficKing has clearance for entering these areas, Puppy and Her kidnap him to gain access to the farms.
Puppy, led by Her and accompanied by the tamed TrafficKing, scour the Imagination Farms for his brother's signal, and are confronted by Geminus, a dual-personality cyborg that presents itself as two twin sisters that act as host to Mother. TrafficKing has been working for Geminus and it has been established that they were using Wizard to form a coup to overthrow the Boss and control Heaven. TrafficKing dies after begrudgingly helping Puppy through overheated obstacles, burning to death. Puppy confronts Geminus but is attacked by the resurrected TrafficKing, now controlling a humanoid cyborg |

In 2011, Williams found an algorithm for multiplying two matrices in time . This improved a previous time bound for matrix multiplication algorithms, the Coppersmith–Winograd algorithm, that had stood as the best known for 24 years. Her initial improvement was independent of Andrew Stothers, who also improved the same bound a year earlier; after learning of Stothers' work, she combined ideas from both methods to improve his bound as well. As of 2020, her work also establishes the current best-known algorithm for matrix multiplication with Josh Alman, in time .
Recognition
Williams was an NSF Computing Innovation Fellow for 2009–2011, and won a Sloan Research Fellowship in 2017. She was an invited speaker at the 2018 International Congress of Mathematicians, speaking in the section on Mathematical Aspects of Computer Science.
Personal life
Williams is the daughter of applied mathematicians Panayot Vassilevski and Tanya Kostova-Vassilevska. She is married to Ryan Williams, also a computer science professor at MIT; they have worked together in the field of fine-grained complexity.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volumetric%20capture | Volumetric capture or volumetric video is a technique that captures a three-dimensional space, such as a location or performance. This type of volumography acquires data that can be viewed on flat screens as well as using 3D displays and VR goggles. Consumer-facing formats are numerous and the required motion capture techniques lean on computer graphics, photogrammetry, and other computation-based methods. The viewer generally experiences the result in a real-time engine and has direct input in exploring the generated volume.
History
Recording talent without the limitation of a flat screen has been depicted in science-fiction for a long time. Holograms and 3D real-world visuals have featured prominently in Star Wars, Blade Runner, and many other science-fiction productions over the years. Through the growing advancements in the fields of computer graphics, optics, and data processing, this fiction has slowly evolved into a reality. Volumetric video is the logical next step after stereoscopic movies and 360° videos in that it combines the visual quality of photography with the immersion and interactivity of spatialized content and could prove to be the most important development in the recording of human performance since the creation of contemporary cinema.
Computer graphics and VFX
Creating 3D models from video, photography, and other ways of measuring the world has always been an important topic in computer graphics. The ultimate goal is to imitate reality in minute detail while giving creatives the power to build worlds atop this foundation to match their vision. Traditionally, artists create these worlds using modeling and rendering techniques developed over decades since the birth of computer graphics. Visual effects in movies and video games paved the way for advances in photogrammetry, scanning devices, and the computational backend to handle the data received from these new intensive methods. Generally, these advances have come as a result of creating more advanced visuals for entertainment and media, but have not been the goal of the field itself.
LIDAR
LIDAR scanning describes a survey method that uses laser-sampled points densely packed to scan static objects into a point cloud. This requires physical scanners and produces enormous amounts of data. In 2007 the band Radiohead used it extensively to create a music video for "House of Cards", capturing point cloud performances of the singer's face and of select environments in one of the first uses of this technology for volumetric capture. Director James Frost collaborated with media artist Aaron Koblin to capture 3D point-clouds used for this music clip, and while the final output of this work was still a rendered flat representation of the data, the capture and mindset of the authors was already ahead of its time. Point clouds, being distinct samples of three-dimensional space with position and color, create a high fidelity representation of the real world with a huge amount of |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Android%20Go | Android Go, officially Android (Go edition), is a stripped-down version of the Android operating system, designed for low-end and ultra-budget smartphones (but is also used by some tablets). However, it is intended for smartphones with 2 or less GB of RAM and was first made available for Android Oreo. This mode has platform optimizations designed to reduce mobile data usage (including enabling Data Saver mode by default), and a special suite of Google Mobile Services designed to be less resource and bandwidth-intensive. Google Play Services package was also modularized to reduce its memory footprint. The Google Play Store will highlight lighter apps suited for these devices.
The operating system's interface differs from that of mainline Android, with the quick-settings panel giving greater prominence to information regarding the battery, mobile-data limit, and available storage; the recent apps menu using a modified layout and being limited to four apps (in order to reduce RAM consumption), and an application programming interface (API) for allowing mobile carriers to implement data-tracking and top-ups within the Android settings menu. Some system services are disabled such as Notification access and Picture-in-picture mode to improve performance.
Most devices running Android Go use Google's "stock" Android GUI, although there are several manufacturers that still use customized GUI.
Versions
Android Go was made available to OEMs for Android 8.1, and later, for Android Pie.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raw%20intelligence | Raw intelligence is raw data gathered by an intelligence operation, such as espionage or signal interception. Such data commonly requires processing and analysis to make it useful and reliable. To turn the raw intelligence into a finished form, the steps required may include decryption, translation, collation, evaluation and confirmation.
In the period after the First World War, British practise was to circulate raw intelligence with little analysis or context. Such direct intelligence was a strong influence on policy-makers. Churchill was especially keen to see raw intelligence and was supplied this by Desmond Morton during his period outside the government. When Churchill became Prime Minister in 1940, he still insisted on receiving raw intelligence and wanted it all until it was explained that the volume was now too great. A selection of daily intercepts was provided to him each day by Bletchley Park and he called these his "golden eggs".
US intelligence has a different tradition from the British. The key event for the US was the failure to prevent the attack on Pearl Harbor and the inquiries which followed concluded that this was not due to the lack of raw intelligence so much as the failure to make effective use of it. The Central Intelligence Agency was created to collate, analyse and summarise the raw intelligence collected by the other departments. US agencies which focus on the collection of raw intelligence include the National Reconnaissance Office and the National Security Agency.

It was one of the first games that attempted to limit the effects of T-spins on the game, by eliminating the recognition of T-spins triples. However, singles and doubles that use the TST twist are still recognized. In 2014, the game support was discontinued and it can no longer be downloaded.
It is Alexey Pajitnov's favorite version of Tetris.
Gameplay
Gameplay was nearly identical in gameplay to other Tetris titles, but with a different soundtrack. The game offered four modes of play dubbed "Marathon" mode, "Challenge" mode, "Sprint" mode and "Master Mode".
Marathon
Marathon mode played as a more classic version of Tetris, where a point system along with number of lines cleared were kept as indicators of progress. The level of speed was chosen prior to starting the mode of gameplay. There were 15 levels total.
Discontinuation
In 2014, the game was discontinued without prior notice from the official website and replaced by Tetris.com, a simpler online version.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rest%20in%20Power%3A%20The%20Trayvon%20Martin%20Story | Rest in Power: The Trayvon Martin Story is an American documentary television series that premiered on July 30, 2018 on Paramount Network. The six-episode series documents the killing of Trayvon Martin and explores the racial tension in the United States that was brought about in its wake. The series is executive produced by Sybrina Fulton, Tracy Martin, Jay-Z, Chachi Senior, Michael Gasparro, Jenner Furst, Julia Willoughby Nason, and Nick Sandow. Furst and Nason also directed the series as well.
Premise
Rest in Power: The Trayvon Martin Story focuses on the killing of Trayvon Martin that became a huge American talking point and helped spur the "Black Lives Matter" movement. The docuseries delves into the tragic event which the network describes as "a story about race, politics, power, money and the U.S. criminal justice system."
Production
Development
On March 23, 2017, it was announced that The Weinstein Company and Jay-Z had won a heated bidding war for the screen rights to two books, Suspicion Nation: The Inside Story of the Trayvon Martin Injustice and Why We Continue to Repeat It by Lisa Bloom and Rest in Power: The Enduring Life of Trayvon Martin by Sybrina Fulton and Tracy Martin. The producers' plan was reportedly to take the novels and adapt them into two separate projects: a six-part documentary television series and a narrative feature film. Other studios had been interested in the screen rights such as Fox Searchlight and Universal Pictures (who had been attempting to obtain them for Will Packer and Ted Field). The Weinstein Company's Harvey Weinstein and David Glasser had a meeting during the weekend of the Academy Award in their Los Angeles office with Jay-Z and Martin's parents. The pair was able to win them over by making it clear that their greatest concern was seeing their Martin's life and legacy honored.
On April 6, 2017, it was announced that the Paramount Network had given a series order to the production, now titled Rest in Power: The Trayvon Martin Story. The series order consisted of six episodes for the program with executive producers including Jay-Z, Harvey Weinstein, David C. Glasser, Chachi Senior, Sybrina Fulton, Tracy Martin, Jenner Furst, Nick Sandow, Julia Willoughby Nason, and Michael Gasparro. On October 9, 2017, it was announced that following reports of sexual abuse allegations against producer Harvey Weinstein, his name would be removed from the series' credits as would The Weinstein Company as well.
On July 2, 2018, it was announced that the series would premiere on July 30, 2018.
George Zimmerman controversy
On December 16, 2017, George Zimmerman claimed in an interview that a production team for the series led by executive producer Michael Gasparro made unannounced visits to his parents' and uncle's homes in Florida in an attempt to get them on camera. He alleged that the crew harassed his family and that they refused to pay his parents or family members if they did decide to participate in the ser |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JurisTech | JurisTech (Juris Technologies Sdn Bhd) is a Malaysian Financial technology company that serves banks in Malaysia with their predictive artificial intelligence system debt collection systems, loan origination systems, credit scoring systems, conveyancing and loan documentation systems.
JurisTech started off in 1997, during the Asian Financial Crisis, offering data mining and analytical tools that might help banks generate more sales. However, the company's initial offering of data mining services was not very popular, due to the rising bad debt during that period. The company then started offering credit management and litigation software. Their debt recovery software solution was a success, which resulted in JurisTech becoming an MSC Malaysia company in 2003.
In 2014, JurisTech was selected at the New York City International Selection Panel to be a part of the Endeavor (non-profit) network.
JurisTech has also been used as an example of agile responsiveness in Chris Zook and James Allen's book The Founder's Mentality in 2016.
In 2019, JurisTech was recognized by The Star (Malaysia) for best innovation and best use of technology.

A path along the Ridgeway has been in place since the 1970s. It was developed into a NCN route with the construction of two bridges. The first bridge opened in 2011 and spanned Bridges Road. Opened the following year, the second crosses West Common Lane.
Route
The northern trailhead is at Normanby Hall Country Park. It runs south through Crosby and Hempdykes to Riddings and its southern trailhead at Greenacre Park Bottesford with an extension from Manor Park completed in May 2022. The route follows a north–south jurassic escarpment.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CLOUD%20Act | The Clarifying Lawful Overseas Use of Data Act or CLOUD Act () is a United States federal law enacted in 2018 by the passing of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2018, PL 115–141, Division V.
The CLOUD Act primarily amends the Stored Communications Act (SCA) of 1986 to allow federal law enforcement to compel U.S.-based technology companies via warrant or subpoena to provide requested data stored on servers regardless of whether the data are stored in the U.S. or on foreign soil.
Background
The CLOUD Act was introduced following difficulties that the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) had with obtaining remote data through service providers through SCA warrants, as the SCA was written before cloud computing was a viable technology. The situation was highlighted from a 2013 drug trafficking investigation, during which the FBI issued an SCA warrant for emails that a U.S. citizen had stored on one of Microsoft's remote servers in Ireland, which Microsoft refused to provide.
This legal challenge led to the Supreme Court in Microsoft Corp. v. United States. The FBI contended that Microsoft had full control of the data and should be compelled to turn it over in response to the warrant, but Microsoft argued that the SCA did not cover data stored outside the United States. The challenge recognized that while the FBI could request a mutual legal assistance treaty (MLAT) to aid in data discovery during cross-border law enforcement, the process to acquire a new MLAT if one is not in place, or to process a request through an existing MLAT, can be slow and impede law enforcement efforts.
Congress, primarily led by Senator Orrin Hatch, had attempted to create legislation prior to the CLOUD Act to amend the SCA with the concerns of Microsoft and other technology companies with respect to foreign privacy rights. The Law Enforcement Access to Data Stored Abroad Act (LEADS Act) in 2015 and the International Communications Privacy Act (ICPA) in 2017 were both previous bills intended to amend the SCA but which failed to gain passage.
Provisions
The CLOUD Act asserts that U.S. data and communication companies must provide stored data for a customer or subscriber on any server they own and operate when requested by warrant, but provides mechanisms for the companies or the courts to reject or challenge these if they believe the request violates the privacy rights of the foreign country the data is stored in.
It also provides an alternative and expedited route to MLATs through "executive agreements"; the executive branch is given the ability to enter into bi-lateral agreements with foreign countries to provide requested data related to its citizens in a streamlined manner, as long as the Attorney General, with concurrence of the Secretary of State, agree that the foreign country has sufficient protections in place to restrict access to data related to United States citizens. The first such agreement was with the United Kingdom. There is a FAQ appended to the |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Champs%20Boxing | Champs Boxing was a series of boxing matches that took place in Fort Worth, Texas during 2002 and 2003. The boxing events were created to supplement Telefutura’s programming when the network moved to a 24-hour schedule. The boxing matches took place on Saturday night, and aired later in the week to round out TeleFutura’s growing need for programming content. TeleFutura had large Friday Night boxing programming, but the demand was to add several smaller events throughout the week.
Tommy Habeeb, Leslie Norris, and Dustin Hodge were the producers and produced the events through Tommy Habeeb Enterprises, before later moving to producing MMA events for the Art of War Undisputed Arena Fighting Championship.
Kendrick Releford and America Santos were two of the more well known boxers on the events. The fights were sanctioned by the Texas Combative Sports Program.
History
Champs Boxing held six events.
The first event, Gonzalez vs Guereca, was on October 11, 2002, at the Ramada Plaza in Fort Worth, Texas. The headliner was Jesse Gonzales vs Bernardo Guereca.

The third event, Gonzalez vs Suarez, took place March 8, 2003, at the Pequeno Mexico Event Building in Fort Worth, Texas. The headliner was Jesse Gonzales vs Eloy Suarez. This event was broadcast on TeleFutura.
The fourth event, Gonzalez vs Sandoval, took place May 31, 2003, at the Hooters in Fort Worth, Texas. The headliner was Jesse Gonzales vs Norberto Sandoval. This event was broadcast on TeleFutura.
