Artisan Shopping around West Berkshire
Shepard’s Bakery in Chieveley
Shepherd’s Bakery – Chieveley
Shepherd’s Bakery started in Chieveley in 1898 offering a door-to-door delivery service. Since then many things have changed but Shepherd’s has remained a constant in the village, although now a much bigger business than it was then. So it is with pride that Shepherd’s returns to its roots 110 years later by once again delivering bread door-to-door. We are a heritage bakery that uses traditional baking methods.
Baking was always our ambition and after my work experience with Andrew Shepherd, then owner of Shepherd’s Bakery, I went on to work at the bakery at weekends and school holidays. After leaving school I went full time there, moving up the ranks to bakery manager. In 1999 we had the opportunity to buy the business.
“Although the types of customers may change, our process and traditional method of baking remain largely the same. I love being able to introduce our gorgeous bread and rolls to new customers who are always amazed and excited by the taste and smell of ‘real bread’, and how well it keeps.”
Aston’s Bakehouse, Inkpen
Aston’s Bakehouse is owned and run by Syd Aston and is located in the beautiful village of Inkpen in rural West Berkshire.
Syd Aston was one of the first organic bakers in the country and has built a reputation for quality which goes back many years. He has a background in farming, so he understands fully the principles behind organic food from seed to loaf. Syd’s personal principles have not shifted since day one – offering top quality, hand-made breads produced on a small scale with minimum impact on the environment.
The Honesty Bakery – Newbury
The Honesty Bakery is situated in Turnpike, Newbury. We bake 6 days a week, employing 4 full time artisan bakers and 4 full time pastry chefs. Our breads and pastries are all made using local organic, stoneground flour and the doughs are folded and shaped by hand.
Our bread and cake range is extensive and new products are introduced monthly. Speciality breads include sourdough, Italian rosemary and sea salt and black olive bread. We also make the more traditional English loaves such as bloomers and sandwich tin, white and wholemeal. Some loaves are made using heritage grains such as Emmer and Khorasan, both of which are growing in popularity.
The Lobster Pot
The Lobster Pot- Hungerford
The Lobster Pot joined our team here at Cobbs in November 2010. They receive fresh deliveries from boats in Cornwall everyday to ensure that the quality and freshness of their fish is never compromised.
If you do need some inspiration for how to prepare your fish, new recipe ideas or any advice on the health benefits of eating fish then be sure to pop in and speak to one of the team
Berkshire Seafoods
Established in 2005 West Berkshire Seafoods Ltd supplies the local community and restaurant trade with high quality seafood. We source all our fish from day boats landing to ports from Newlyn to Lerwick and Berwick down to Brighton. We complement our fresh stock with live shellfish such as razor clams and lobster from Scotland, fresh Scallops from Islay and spider crab from Cornwall. Please contact us for further information or to plaice an order. The Harvard School of Public Health reported in the Journal of American Health (2006) that the health benefits of regular consumption of fish far outweighed any potential risks. Studies in the 1970s of the Greenland Inuit Tribe revealed that they displayed virtually no Cardiovascular disease. The Inuit diet predominately on fish.
Marlow’s Finest Artisinal Cheesemakers
Marlow’s Finest Artisnal Cheesemakers
We are a small, familly run business based in the picturesque town of Marlow and pride ourselves on working with local dairy farmers, allowing us to source our milk locally to create our delicious cheeses.
Village Maid Cheese.
Anne Wigmore began making cheese at the National Institute for Research in Dairying (NIRD) in 1984, having worked as a microbiologist at the establishment. In the experimental dairy Anne produced different types of cheese for projects within the institute and organised tasting panels. She also visited the then few artisan cheese-makers in the country for consultations and this inspired a passion for artisan cheese.
After leaving the institute in 1985 to travel abroad with Andy and two friends, who were fulfilling a lifelong ambition of sailing their self-made yacht back to Australia, their return after six months provided Anne with the opportunity of going it alone. Anne formed her own company under the government Enterprise Allowance scheme where she was paid £40 per week and offered short training courses in administration to become a successful entrepreneur. Thus the seeds of Village Maid Cheese were sown and the company was born from humble beginnings in a garden outbuilding in Spencers Wood near Reading in May 1986.
Two Hoots Cheese
Two Hoots Cheese- Barkham
Located in the village of Barkham on the Hampshire/Berkshire border, Two Hoots Cheese is a small family business which prides itself on producing award-winning quality handmade blue cheese.
The cheeses are made in the traditional way with pasteurised cows’ and ewe’s milk. Husband and wife team Sandy and Andy Rose have been producing cheese since 2003 and have recently been joined by their daughter

Vicars Game
Vicars Game- Ashampstead
William Vicars & Son was established in Reading in 1886 and has traded in the same family for generations.
In 1973, the company changed hands and was bought by Alan Hayward, who subsequently opened a specialist game processing department (Vicars Game) in part of the old Reading Abattoirs. This then moved to Scours Lane and then in 2001 to Ashampstead.
Here in Ashampstead, we have grown our wholesale game and meat processing and opened the catering side of the business. In 2005 we started to cure our own bacon and expand the sausage manufacturing side, making over 2 tonnes daily. During this period, our turnover increased tenfold and the quality and diversity of our products rapidly attracted the attention of an increasing number of prestige retailers and restaurants.
Marsden’s Confectionary Kintbury
Marsden Fudge
Marsden’s Confectionery, winner of 17 awards is highly successful home-based business, making a range of fudge and chocolates to traditional recipes of the highest quality and excellence.
Mortimer Chocolate Co
We make chocolate here in the UK. We have a unique (and secret) process to make chocolate powder. We don’t make bars (although we could), but we make our chocolate into a powder to make it easier to use… To make a chocolate drink, to cook with, or, as very many of our customers confess, to eat it straight from the pack with a spoon! We also make drinking chocolates for cafes and, if you manufacture ice creams or cakes, we make cocoa mass and cocoa powder for you too. The one thing ALL our products have in common? They are all delicious! Just as great chocolate should be!

Published Tuesday, November 24, 2020 9:38AM EST Last Updated Tuesday, November 24, 2020 2:28PM EST
Windsor Essex County Health Unit in Windsor, Ont., on April 6, 2020. (Bob Bellacicco / CTV Windsor)
WINDSOR, ONT. -- The Windsor-Essex County Health Unit is reporting 55 new cases of COVID-19 on Tuesday.
Windsor-Essex has had a total of 3,381 confirmed cases of the virus, including 2,989 people who have recovered.

16 cases are still under investigation
There are 315 active cases. WECHU says 16 people are in the hospital and five are in the ICU.
Medical officer of health Dr. Wajid Ahmed says as the number of new cases rise, it would be unfortunate to have to go back to more restrictions, but the province will be looking at the numbers.
“As best as a local public health we are trying to do our part in terms of preventing many of these cases,” says Ahmed. “Still we are seeing the number of cases increasing and we will be at a risk of moving into a different restriction level.”
The health unit has declared several outbreaks, including a new community outbreak at Riverplace Residence.
WECHU says there are about 40 people in lodging home, with at least three positive cases.
There are also two new outbreaks in workplaces in the region - one at an agricultural facility in Leamington and a place of worship in Leamington.
There are now two schools experiencing outbreaks.
The WECHU declared an outbreak at W. J. Langlois Catholic Elementary School on Thursday and Frank W. Begley Elementary School in Windsor had an outbreak declared Tuesday. Both school communities have been dismissed and the schools closed.
WECHU said Tuesday the cases at Begley have increased to 39 confirmed cases and two probable cases.
There are five outbreaks in long term care and retirement homes. Riverside Place has seen a huge spike in cases, with 17 residents and two staff members who have tested positive.
Iller Lodge in Essex has 17 residents and one staff member with the virus.
Lifetimes on Riverside has five residents and four staff members who have tested positive.

Urban Shalom and the Cities We Need
Ash Barker, Andre Van Eymeren, Chris Elisara
Publisher: Urban Shalom Publishing
This book is the result of two historic events that took place in Quito, Ecuador during
October 2016. The first was the Gospel and the Future of Cities Summit at which a
contingent of Kingdom focused urban leaders gathered to explore what the gospel has to
say to the development of cities globally. The participants then formed a delegation to the
United Nation’s Habitat III conference, joining with 45,000 city leaders, academics, NGOs
and others from all over the world.
Urban Shalom and the Cities We Need picks up the themes discussed at the summit and
reflects on their connection to the New Urban Agenda which was ratified at Habitat III and
sets the tone for the development of cities globally. In these pages, you will hear from
practitioners, leaders and academics as they lead you in reflection on some of the major
issues facing all urban environments. From years of experience the authors offer very
practical tools on discipleship, urban planning, land use, community development and
responding to the poor. It is our hope that their reflections and tools will enable you and your
networks to engage in crucial conversations with others about the physical and social
development of your neighborhoods, communities and cities. And that together we can all
work on the creation of great spaces and places that reflect God’s desire for us all to
experience shalom.

The Alter Ego Effect - The Power...
Now a Wall Street Journal bestseller.
What if the games we played as children were the greatest gift to helping us achieve more today?
Before stage fright, impostor syndrome, emotional baggage, and the other dubious gifts of adulthood, everyone pretended to be a superhero, a favorite athlete, an inspiring entertainer, a nurse, a firefighter, a lion, or whatever else captured our imaginations. And yet, that natural creativity is slowly squeezed out of us because we think it’s childish or it’s “time to grow up.” Now Todd Herman—backed by scientific research and countless stories from the real world—will show us how to tap into the human imagination to unleash new versions of ourselves, ready-made to kick ass.
Herman has been coaching champions in every field for over twenty years, and he’s helped them bring out their Heroic Self to transcend the forces pulling them into the Ordinary World.
Anyone attempting ambitious things faces adversity, resistance, and challenges, but Herman confronts these obstacles with a question: Who or what needs to show up to make success inevitable?
In The Alter Ego Effect, Herman presents countless stories from salespeople, executives, entertainers, athletes, entrepreneurs, creatives, and historical figures to illustrate how to activate the Heroic Self already nested inside each of us. And he reveals that we may not be using those traits in the moments when we need them the most. From the creative entrepreneur who resisted their craft, to the accomplished military officer who wanted to be a warmer dad at home, Todd Herman’s clients have discovered there is no end to the parts of their lives they could improve by using Alter Egos.
Of Privacy and Power - The...
Henry Farrell, Abraham L. Newman
How disputes over privacy and security have shaped the relationship between the European Union and the United States and what this means for the futureWe live in an interconnected world, where security problems like terrorism are spilling across borders, and globalized data networks and e-commerce platforms are reshaping the world economy. This means that states’ jurisdictions and rule systems clash. How have they negotiated their differences over freedom and security? Of Privacy and Power investigates how the European Union and United States, the two major regulatory systems in world politics, have regulated privacy and security, and how their agreements and disputes have reshaped the transatlantic relationship.The transatlantic struggle over freedom and security has usually been depicted as a clash between a peace-loving European Union and a belligerent United States. Henry Farrell and Abraham Newman demonstrate how this misses the point. The real dispute was between two transnational coalitions—one favoring security, the other liberty—whose struggles have reshaped the politics of surveillance, e-commerce, and privacy rights. Looking at three large security debates in the period since 9/11, involving Passenger Name Record data, the SWIFT financial messaging controversy, and Edward Snowden’s revelations, the authors examine how the powers of border-spanning coalitions have waxed and waned. Globalization has enabled new strategies of action, which security agencies, interior ministries, privacy NGOs, bureaucrats, and other actors exploit as circumstances dictate.The first serious study of how the politics of surveillance has been transformed, Of Privacy and Power offers a fresh view of the role of information and power in a world of economic interdependence.

Social Media and the Public...
Philip M. Napoli
Facebook, a platform created by undergraduates in a Harvard dorm room, has transformed the ways millions of people consume news, understand the world, and participate in the political process. Despite taking on many of journalism’s traditional roles, Facebook and other platforms, such as Twitter and Google, have presented themselves as tech companies—and therefore not subject to the same regulations and ethical codes as conventional media organizations. Challenging such superficial distinctions, Philip M. Napoli offers a timely and persuasive case for understanding and governing social media as news media, with a fundamental obligation to serve the public interest.Social Media and the Public Interest explores how and why social media platforms became so central to news consumption and distribution as they met many of the challenges of finding information—and audiences—online. Napoli illustrates the implications of a system in which coders and engineers drive out journalists and editors as the gatekeepers who determine media content. He argues that a social media–driven news ecosystem represents a case of market failure in what he calls the algorithmic marketplace of ideas. To respond, we need to rethink fundamental elements of media governance based on a revitalized concept of the public interest. A compelling examination of the intersection of social media and journalism, Social Media and the Public Interest offers valuable insights for the democratic governance of today’s most influential shapers of news.
The English Civil War Armies
The year 1642 witnessed the outbreak of the first English Civil War, which saw Royalist troops loyal to King Charles fight the Parliamentarians in several major battles and many sieges. Peter Young explores the tactics, equipment and organisation of the armies of both sides, drawing a compelling picture of what it must have been like for the men who lived and fought in England over 350 years ago. Chapters on fighting, cavalry, infantry, artillery and discipline examine the subject in depth, with many contemporary accounts, such as those of Royalist Captain, Richard Atkyns, who served in one of the most 'active' regiments of the war.

49ers agree to one-year deal with Tony Wragge
Jul 27, 2011 at 9:51 AM • --
Matt Barrows, hot off a good interview on KBWF (yes, we are stalking you Barrows), reports on Twitter (@mattbarrows), "The 49ers have agreed to a one-year deal with free agent center Tony Wragge, according to a league source."
Also from Barrows' Twitter:
Wragge's signing obviously prompted by Baas' imminent departure. He's now only player on the roster who's started at center, albeit 2 games.
Two mock drafts have 49ers selecting quarterbacks with one involving a trade up
The 2020 NFL season is in the books for the San Francisco 49ers, and members of The Faithful can now turn their attention toward the NFL Draft. One position that will have no shortage of news coverage this offseason is quarterback, as was the case last offseason. Will Jimmy Garoppolo return to the team in 2021, or will Kyle Shanahan and company find a better option? Two mock drafts from Monday morning have the 49ers adding a rookie quarterback to the roster. The first is from Pro Football Focus, which has San Francisco moving up to the No. 4 overall pick to select Justin Fields of Ohio State. "There are a few reasons why I strongly believe the 49ers will
Conflicting reports on Robert Saleh's interview with Lions, with one suggesting 49ers DC 'did not do very well'
San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan has expressed confidence that his defensive coordinator, Robert Saleh, would do well in any head-coaching job interview. Saleh interviewed with the Detroit Lions on Thursday, a job for which many consider him to be the favorite. One NFL insider suggests that particular interview may not have gone as well as Shanahan might expect or Saleh might have hoped. "Saleh did not do very well in the Detroit interview, I was told. And is not a shoo-in to get the job," Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle said during a radio interview with SportsTalk 790's Adam Clanton and Adam Wexler (via
San Francisco 49ers defensive coordinator Robert Saleh is headed to the New York Jets. He's taking 49ers assistant coach Mike LaFleur with him to be his offensive coordinator. That's a significant loss for head coach Kyle Shanahan. There are a couple of silver linings for the 49ers. One, Shanahan feels the team has Saleh's replacement in place. Reports state that the team plans to promote linebackers coach DeMeco Ryans to replace Saleh as defensive

49ers announce 2020 team award winners, including Fred Warner winning the Len Eshmont Award
The San Francisco 49ers announced team award winners for the 2020 season on Monday morning. Among the winners is Fred Warner, who earned the prestigious Len Eshmont Award. Past award winners can be found here. The following award descriptions are courtesy of the 49ers Communications staff. Len Eshmont Award LB Fred Warner The Len Eshmont Award is voted on by the players and is given to the 49er who best exemplifies the inspirational and courageous play of Len Eshmont, an original member of the 1946 49ers team. Eshmont, who coached at Navy and Virginia following his career in San Francisco, died in 1957. The award was established that year. Bill
49ers GM John Lynch says team will do everything it can to keep FB Kyle Juszczyk
It's possible that fullback Kyle Juszczyk has played his final game in a San Francisco 49ers uniform, but if that proves to be the case, chances are the team will put up a fight before letting it happen. The pending free agent status of Juszczyk was one of many topics discussed during the 49ers' year-end media sessions on Monday, with both Juszczyk and general manager John Lynch issuing comments on the subject. Juszczyk was visibly and audibly emotional when talking about the possibility of his time coming to an end, saying, "It hits a little bit harder when it's reality and it's right here in your face. It's definitely hit me a little bit different this week." The 49ers face a tough reality this
49ers WR Brandon Aiyuk earns spot on PFF's 2020 NFL All-Rookie Team
It looks like the San Francisco 49ers struck gold at wide receiver for the second consecutive year. It was Deebo Samuel in 2019, and in 2020, the Bay Area team landed another versatile wideout via the draft in Brandon Aiyuk. Aiyuk finished the season with 60 receptions for 748 yards with five touchdowns. He added six carries for 77 rushing yards and another two scores on the ground. The superb first year was enough to land Aiyuk on Pro Football Focus' 2020 NFL All-Rookie Team. "The 49ers struck again," wrote Ben Linsey. "Aiyuk is in the same mold as the George Kittles and the Deebo Samuelses added to San

On Sunday, the Atlantic Coast Conference announced that the Seminoles' game this Saturday at Duke was also called off.
The program lost an estimated $2 million after it called off its game against Clemson on Nov. 21. That number will be higher after its next two games against Virginia and Duke were also nixed.
The notice went out across Florida State University’s alert system Saturday morning, hitting emails and cellphones at roughly the same time. An email reads 10:45 a.m. A text alert reads 10:44 a.m. The message is one line:
“The FSU vs Virginia Game has been postponed.”
The game was supposed to signal a restart for Florida State a week after its game against Clemson was canceled, four hours before kickoff, at the advice of medical staff following a positive coronavirus case on Clemson’s team and concerns about exposure. The game was initially slated for Nov. 21.
FSU estimated it lost $2 million due to that cancellation.
On Sunday, the Atlantic Coast Conference announced this Saturday's game at Duke was also called off. Coupled with the Virginia and Clemson games, money problems are mounting for the Seminoles' program.
Game times and networks for Dec. 5 have been released 🏈

“A few quick thoughts on @fsufootball. First, FSU has now lost 2.5-3 million in EARNINGS (not revenue) by missing the last 2 home games. If you think they’re canceling to avoid losses I can’t help you. They want to play these games. (1-9),” tweeted Tom Block, vice president for Advancement Relations at the FSU Foundation, the school’s fundraising arm. Block also hosts a podcast and talk show focused on FSU athletics.

That’s looking at it through an FSU lens, not an ACC lens, so no idea if that’s where it’ll land. That’s also assuming FSU has enough guys able to play any of the remaining weekends given COVID concerns. They’re that thin given roster attrition. (7-9)
The cause of those called off games: coronavirus.
Florida State isn’t alone in trying to juggle health concerns along with the need to keep football revenues flowing. Other key games at other schools have been postponed throughout the season, according to an analysis by Sports Illustrated.
“For the 2020 season, 477 games have been scheduled, 365 games have been played, 81 games have been canceled or postponed with 16.9% of games impacted,” the publication reported in a Nov. 21 article about the FSU-Clemson situation.
The NCAA also keeps a running list of postponed and canceled games.
According to ESPN, the ACC requires players who test positive isolate for 10 days, and all players involved in contact tracing must be quarantined for 14 days.
FSU’s problems are beginning to compound for a team that has struggled all year —particularly with injuries among key positions. The team has a 2-6 record and no more games remaining on the schedule, although the conference has set aside the weeks of Dec. 12 or 19 as possible makeup dates.
“Our team underwent the mandated third-party testing and learned late (Friday) night that we had one positive test. Contact tracing this morning determined that, with opt-outs and injuries, we had just 44 scholarship players for the game, with some position groups depleted almost entirely,” FSU Athletic Director David Coburn said in a press release.
“We deeply regret that many Florida State and Virginia fans have already traveled to the game as well as Virginia’s team. We simply had no way of knowing we would not be playing until this morning. We made every effort to play, but we could not do so in a way that was safe for the players.”
Time is running out for FSU to make up the lost games. Virginia has already had one game moved. It was supposed to play Virginia Tech on Sept. 19. That game is now Dec. 12.
FSU has also been pushing to reschedule its game with Clemson, but no date has been announced.
The Seminoles have dealt with positive COVID-19 cases before. Coach Mike Norvell was among them, having to sit out and watch from home as his team was dealt a defeat by Miami, 52-10 in September.

African Wax Prints and the Story behind their names
What is African Print or Ankara Fabric
African Wax Print, also called Ankara Fabric, Dutch Wax Prints, or Holland Print is 100% cotton fabric with beautiful vibrant colours for clothing in Africa, especially West Africa.
These Fabrics were first produced in Dutch East Indies (now Indonesia). African soldiers who were serving in the region at that time started to import the fabrics
into Africa. The Fabrics suddenly caught on with many in West Africa. In the meantime, Europeans traders were hard at work replicating the fabrics using modern machinery especially the Dutch who are now the main producers of the Fabric.
A key element of African culture and pride is the African fabric or Ankara Fabric. Brilliant African print fabrics are the prized possession of the African, and have been worn to grace traditional functions and special occasions throughout our history. African wax prints form a major part of our cultural identity and heritage.
These African prints are all unique and authentic, each bearing a traditional richness that is befitting of proud black people. There’s absolutely no reason why you shouldn’t secure as many of these African prints as possible for yourself and your loved ones.
Each of these brightly colored African fabrics has a unique story behind its origin, and whatever you use them to make, you can be proud to be wearing an African wax print that attests to your rich black heritage.
54 ANKARA FABRICS AND THE STORY BEHIND THEIR NAMES
Michelle Obama’s Bag
The release of this print coincided with the arrival of Michelle Obama in Africa, who then was First Lady of the United States. The story goes that the fabric was named after the eye-catching handbag she wore as she was disembarking the plane.
Leaf Trail
Also Known as Ahuodi Pankassa | Makaïva
This fabric is known as “Ahuodi Pankassa Wusa Arm”, which translates to ‘empty barrels make the most noise.’ It means that if you are good at something you must be modest about it. Others may say you’re good, but to say so yourself would be a hollow claim. Sometimes one colourway of a pattern acquires a special meaning. In Ghana, for example, this pattern in blue main motifs is only worn by women who want to indicate they are pregnant.
The pattern is very popular in Ivory Coast and Togo. Its two colours, red and yellow, are printed on top of each other. Each year it is worn during the meeting of the Lomé Houngni women, an order of women from Lomé, Togo. Despite the many imitations of this pattern that circulate today, the real Vlisco pattern remains the first choice for notables and upper class.
The Happy Family
Also Known as La Famille
The Happy Family design represents the archetypical African family. It is synonymous with the social identity of its wearer. At the center is the maternal figure, the chicken, surrounded by her chicks and future chicks, the eggs. The father – the rooster – is nothing but trouble and only his head is shown. This clearly indicates the pivotal role of women inside the family. The Happy Family stands for family value from which the wearer derives status.
Obaapa
“Obaapa” means ‘A Good Woman’ or ‘A Good Wife’. It indicates that you want to be a good woman for your husband.
Village Molokai
Also Known as Guerre de Shaba
This popular fabric in DRCongo is called ‘Village Molokai’, as connecting the village of Molokai in DRCongo to the village depicted on the design. The pattern is also called “Guerre de Shaba”, ‘The War of Shaba’, on account of the struggle for independence that broke out in Shaba, a province in the southern part of DRCongo, now known as Katanga.
Small Star
Also Known as Kilikili Star
One of Vlisco’s most beloved heritage designs is that of the Small Star, known locally by the Igbo tribe in Nigeria as the “Kilikili Star”. This is one of the stories behind it’s name. The king of Moonland commissioned a mirror that should shine like the sun. When the only reflection the mirror gave was the moon, the king flew into a rage and cursing he smashed the mirror. Sending hundreds of fragments into the air, where they planted themselves like shining stars in the sky.
Fans were once the only way to cool down in the warm African climate, and in Nigeria, market vendors with electric fans enjoyed a certain status. In Nigeria, where it’s known as ‘Table Fan’, the design is popular in traditional Igbo colours. Today this Vlisco original has become a favourite in many countries.
Awoulaba
In Baoule, Awoulaba means Queen of Beauty. Women with generous curves are called Awoulaba. Its popularity in the 80s coincided with the first edition of the beauty contest “Miss Awoulaba”.
This design is often referred to as Sucre, because the pattern resembles lumps of sugar.
Also Known as Topizo
The Hibiscus pattern is especially popular in Guinea and Ivory Coast. Twelve yards are regarded as essential to a bride’s dowry: ‘No Hibiscus, no Wedding.’ The pattern is known by several other names, including “Topizo” in Togo and “Tohozin” in Benin (both meaning ‘rush’), alluding to the day it first went on sale, when it was met by a rush of customers. In 1970, it was adopted by Air Zaire’s flight attendants as their uniform.
Nigerian women call this fabric ‘Television’, possibly because of the boxed structures that seemingly depict motion pictured stories!
Also Known as Lustful Eye
The design is simply known as Eyes in Nigeria, a name inspired by the eye drawing. In Ivory Coast, this popular design is called “L’Oeil de Boeuf” (Bull’s Eye) but, it is also known as “Lisu ya Pité”, meaning ‘Lustful Eye’. Women wear it that want to show a man that she desires him.
Also Known as Change your life | Senchi Bridge | Aganmakpo | La Danse à la Mode
This pattern has many meanings. The names “Cha Cha Cha” and ‘Change your Life’ are derived from the rhythm of the pattern. ‘Senchi Bridge’ refers to a bridge over the Volta River in Ghana, a suspension bridge that sways violently when crossed. In Togo the pattern is called “Aganmakpo”, which means the back of a chameleon, an animal that symbolises change. And in Ivory Coast this pattern was called “La Danse à la Mode” after the war in that country.
This design is a new interpretation of the iconic ‘1004’ pattern. President Faure Gnassingbé of Togo had renewals and renovations planned for the city of Lomé in 2015 . The people of Togo named the pattern ‘Lomé 2015’ because they no longer believed in change.
Na You Biko
Also Known as My hat goes off to you
In Nigeria, this fabric is called “Na You Biko”, meaning: ‘My hat goes off to you’. Sometimes, it is also referred to as ‘The Diamond’, because of the leaves that are somewhat diamond-shaped.
Big Bible
Also Known as Snail
In Nigeria, this design is known as the Big Bible and the Snail, a literal interpretation of the motif. The fabric is adored by the Igbo, a tribe in the Eastern part of Nigeria, who wear it during festive periods, such as their August meeting.
Also Known as Finger Nail, Akpirikpa Azu, Bijenkorfje, Abarro Basso
This design has been given several names across several countries. “Akpirikpa azu” means ‘fish scale’ in Igbo language. It is so called among the Igbo of eastern Nigeria because the design looks similar to the scale pattern on the tropical tilapia fish. “Bijenkorfje” is South-African for ‘bee hyve’, which is also inspired by the structure of the pattern.
Also Known as Alphabet
People wear this design to indicate that they went to school and know how to read and write. They also attach importance to a good education for their children, and they set aside money to provide it.
Also Known as Wounded Heart | Cœur Blessé | Dynamite
In Togo this pattern has acquired a special meaning. The drawing depicts the state of mind of a woman who knows her husband is cheating on her and is leaving her with a “Cœur Blessé”, a broken heart.
Also Known as Iburaka Belun / Igba Akubu Ilum / Katikati / Mbanda
This design is known by many names including ‘Barclay’s Bank’ or “Iburaka Belun”. In Igbo language this means: ‘Are you coming to marry me empty handed?’ Like the meaning implied in ‘Barclay’s Bank’, it declares that the wearer’s suitor better be a stable provider.
Don’t get married empty-handed
Don’t get married with empty hands: In Togo, young women prepare for marriage by assembling their valuable materials and financial assets, in order to be financially independent from their future husband. it is said that when a girl is wed with love as her only baggage, she runs the risk of returning to her mother’s arms in tears very quickly.
The eye of my rival
Also Known as Moran’s Eyes
In Ivory Coast, this fabric refers up family tensions, because by this direct information, members of the family and their immediate relatives are called to act, to take a stand. This wax reveals the discrepancies between the co-wives and between them and their husbands. This line requires that the situation be dedramatized and that the limits of the different roles be restored. The name of the wax solicits the word of all. It raises feelings, but above all it creates a dialogue where everyone has to freely examine his own feelings. Under his abstract motifs, he proclaims the love and family life of the woman.
Also Known as Bunch of bananas / Shell
This heritage design from the 1960s is also known as ‘Bunch of Bananas’ and “Coquillage”, which means shell in English. In Togo this design is known as “Abobo To Lé Gomè”, which means ‘the snail out of its shell’. In a village called Abobo, they celebrate the Abobozan festival in September each year. During the festival, snail dishes are enjoyed by locals and the snail fabric is a popular choice.
Also Known as La Lune
The origins of this Java design lie in Kano, Nigeria. The pattern is an interpretation of a tie-dye motif that is still being used by indigo dyers in Kano today. The large spiral of dots represents the sultan surrounded by his entourage. The pattern is also popular in Ghana, where it was named after a junction in the city of Obo. In Togo, the pattern refers to small change—literally shells, which were once used as currency.
Jumping Horse
Also Known as I run faster than my Rival
The names of many patterns identify with a woman’s family and marital relationships. In Côte d’Ivoire, the classic Jumping Horse, also known as “Je Cours Plus Vite Que Ma Rivale” (I Run Faster than My Rival), expresses the rivalry between co-wives. In Nigeria, Igbo women favor this design for Aso-Ebi (uniform cloth) to express unity at their annual women’s meeting, held every August.
The two halves of this pattern represent ‘Day and Night’, in reference to a custom in Indonesia, where light clothing would be worn during the evening and dark clothing during the day.
Also Known as Fleurs De Mariage / Mgbolodi
This popular fabric is known by names such as “Rolls Royce”, “Mgbolodi” and “Fleurs de Mariage” (Wedding Flowers). It symbolizes the beauty of happiness in a marriage. It is also believed that when owned or worn, the design will bring uncountable success and wealth to the owner and their family. Perhaps the fabric owes its name “Rolls Royce” to this superstition.
You leave, I leave
Also Known as Tu sors, je sors
The name “Tu sors, je sors” means: if you are unfaithful to me, I’m not going to restrain myself either. With these words, the newlywed wife warns her husband about future escapades. In Togo the pattern is always bought by the woman herself in order to spread the word. The pattern became popular in 1983, particularly in Ivory Coast. The pattern was removed from the line in the nineties, but has been sold again since 2007.
The Head of the Family
The geometrical shapes in this fabric resemble a person embracing others. The story goes that it stands for the head of a family embracing a baby in the arm, with siblings at the feet.
The name of this design is inspired by its motifs, which look a lot like onions. In Benin, this fabric is also called ‘Home on three legs’ and it symbolizes the power of unity.
Also Known as Conseille, Macaroni
“In Ivory Coast, this fabric is called “Conseille”, meaning: advice. When the fabric came out, Ivorian women had the habit of advising their daughters on romantic relationships.
However, in Benin the fabric is referred to as “Macaroni” because the shapes are similar to that of macaroni parts.
Speed Bird
Also Known as Air Afrique | ‘Rich today, poor tomorrow’
With the bird being such an important symbol in many cultures, this fabric has gained a variety of meanings, often referring to change, prosperity, freedom and transition. In Ghana the pattern refers to the transience of riches: rich today, poor tomorrow, for money has wings and can fly away. But the pattern also symbolises asking for a favour, such as the hand of a young woman. In Togo the pattern is called “”Air Afrique”” because the fabric was also used in the uniform of the local airline company.
In the Ebo region it is called Eneke, and it is said that if the hunters learn to shoot without missing, they have learned to fly without perching.
Aklepan
Also Known as Tomato, Necklace
The name “Aklepan” refers to an instrument used in the “Oracle Fa-“, a voodoo ritual. Perhaps it is the instrumental nature of this pattern that inspired the traders to name the fabric thereafter.
Otopa
This design is called “Otopa” in Togo. In the book “Les Messages du Pagne” (The Stories of Loin Cloth), this pattern means ‘Concert of Stars’. They are shining and moving. It’s a sign of a celebration, success and joy. The second name of the design, in Benin is “Hêfounmè wè hè non soudè” meaning ‘The Bird is growing in his down Feather’.
Pepper Leaf
Also Known as Adémé
This design is called ‘Pepper Leaf’ and “Adémé”, named after a vegetable from the south of Togo. Most mothers have their own way of preparing this vegetable, and likewise this fabric has many ways it can be worn.
Also Known as Ya Mado, Miriam Makeba
This pattern was originally one of the most important of the Vlisco range. The popularity of the print coincided with the release of the hit song “Angelina” by legendary Ghanaian band “The Sweet Talks”. People began referring to the printed fabric as ‘Angelina’. In Congo, this print is called “Ya Mado”. Famous Congolese singer Fabregas released the song “Mascara”, in which “Ya Mado!” Was part of the lyrics, referring to an attractive voluptuous woman. As the dancers wore this pattern in the music video, the name Ya Mado gained popularity in Congo. Since the passing of beloved singer and activist Miriam Makeba, in Congo this fabric is also named after her, as Miriam was always dressed in African prints.
Icons on a Pedestal
In celebration of Vlisco’s iconic drawings, our designers created a new fabric design by showcasing a number of famous Vlisco figures on pedestals. Some of these symbols will be instantly recognisable to many of Vlisco’s fans, such as ‘The Hand’, ‘The Jumping Horse’ and ‘The Fan’.
Also Known as Papaya Ye Asa
‘Grotto’ is an Ivorian term that refers to a well-off person who enjoys social recognition. Wearing this fabric affirms the high social status to which a woman belongs by her own merit or thanks to her wealthy spouse. The Grotto is one of the successful pagnes that have gone through the generations in Côte d’Ivoire.
In Ghana this fabric is called “Papa Ye Asa”, which means “”goodness is finished””. The meaning behind “Papa Ye Asa” is that no matter what you do for your fellow human being he/she will never be grateful.
King’s Chair
Also Known as Ashanti Chair, Oche Eze, Hene Egua
Two stories have circulated about the meaning of this fabric. By the Igbo in Nigeria, this fabric is called “Oche Eze” and is a must-have for newly married ladies. This fabric is bought by the bride’s family as a gift to their daughter, and presented to her on her traditional wedding day along with other items. “Oche Eze” symbolizes the wealth of the bride’s family which she brings along to her new family. In Ghana the title ‘The King’s Chair’ refers to gossiping about people, and that you would have to pull up a chair to discuss everything about a person, because every person has a long story.
Also Known as Don’t be unhappy because I walk with my Hands tied.” | Aban Nkaba | Olympia
This fabric is known as “Olympia” but more popular is the name: “Aban Nkaba”- (detention chains/ Handcuffs). The lyrics of a popular Ghanaian song about a man going to prison read “Don’t be to unhappy because I am in prison and walk with my hands tied.” The rings in this design were associated with the handcuffs mentioned in the song.
Also Known as Darling don’t turn your Back on Me
This rare three-colours pattern, loved by the Igbo, is one of the few Wax Hollandais patterns to incorporate three colours. Santana is derived from the name Madame Santa Anna Nelly, the name of one of the Nana Benz in Togo who apparently got the exclusivity of the sales of this pattern. The pattern is based on a sketch provided by vendors. It is said to represent an angry woman lying in bed with her back to the husband. Her husband is asking for forgiveness and begging het to turn around, saying “Cherie, ne me tourne pas le dos” (Darling, don’t turn your back on me).
Fallen Tree
This design, known as ‘Fallen Tree’, is especially popular in Ghana. The Twi proverb written on a scroll above the tree reads “Dua kur gye enum a obu” (‘One Tree alone cannot stand the Wind’), meaning that in unity, there is strength. The design draws on the aesthetics of Dutch Art Nouveau and Indo-European batiks produced from the beginning of the 1900s, although it was designed considerably later, in 1933.
Also Known as Target / Nsu Bura
This drawing first appeared on the market in the 1960s and goes by many names, such as “Plaque-Plaque”, “Target”, and “Nsu Bura”, which means ‘water well’ in Ghana. When you throw a stone in a water well, you can see a ripple effect. The message is that whatever you do, good or bad, it will have an effect on everyone around you. Other names include “Consulaire”, “Gbédjégan” (which is a traditional straw king’s hat in Togo), and “Gbedze”, a hat worn during daily activities to protect the wearer from the sun. In Nigeria, the design is known as Record, thanks to the circular shape of the motif, which reminds many consumers and traders of old vinyl records.
Mama Benz
This pattern is a playful reference to Mama Benz, a name given to the female vendors of Vlisco products (also known as Nana Benz). Because of the succes in their jobs, these women have the opportunity to buy Mercedes Benzes, which explains the origin of the term.
Genito
Also Known as Le Cheque et le Choque
Genito” is a virile young lover, while “Grotto” is a wealthy, fat, older uncle. In Ivory Coast they also speak of “Le cheque et le choque”, ‘The cheque and the scare’, referring to the older rich man who adores young, beautiful women.
The Household Gravel
Also Known as Leopard Skin
The motifs in this pattern are associated with the gravel around a house as well as the texture of a panther’s skin, hence the names ‘The Household Gravel’ and “Peau de Léopard”. The gravel also refers to the immediate family - ‘It’s sometimes sharp and can cut you deeply’ - that is, your immediate family can give you the most pain.
Sugar Cane Plant
The story goes that Nigerian women have titled this fabric as “Cane a Sucre”, possibly referring to similarities between this design and the shapes of sugar cane plants.
Six Bougies
In May 1940, a Portuguese trader named Nogueira arrived in Helmond in the Netherlands to order a custom-made Wax Hollandais. He conceived an idea for a design with six spark plugs (bougies), indicating that its wearer had a six-cylinder car, a sign of wealth. During the Second World War, Vlisco was unable to carry out production operations, but numerous trial productions with Six Bougies were conducted. After the war, this supply of fabric constituted the first shipment to the fully dried-up Congolese market, and it appears to have been an immediate success. Over the years the design took different popular meaning: the woman in the middle is strong enough to take on six men.
Also Known as I am sitting at my Gate | Gendarmerie
One of the stories comes from Togo where the first name given to this drawing was “Je suis assis à mon portail” (‘I am sitting at my gate’). The name was a literal reflection of the design, which depicts a lion (or person) sitting at a gate. The name later changed to “Gendarmerie” (or ‘Force’ in English) as the design reminded some people of the entrance of the Togolese police station.
Nkrumah’s Pencil
This design was once given the name ‘Nkrumah’s Pencil’, after Kwame Nkrumah, the first president of Ghana. As the story goes, Nkrumah was known for making strong comments and speeches both at home and worldwide. But before proclaiming anything, he gave much thought to what he would say and put it down on paper. Nkrumah’s pencils were always well sharpened, and his written words served as a weapon against any obstacle in his way.
Since its release 75 years ago, this is still one of the most popular fabrics in Ghana. The colourful flower motifs attest to the Chinese style of batiks that were made in the Javanese village of Pekalongan, where many Chinese traders had their domicile. The name Pekalongan became linked to a dyeing and printing procedure that is unique to Vlisco and is characterised by very strong and saturated colours.
The revival of the fabric on the Ivorian market in 2008, coincided with the broadcast of a popular television show about ‘a daughter of a gardener’. Hence, this floral design got its Ivorian title ‘La Fille du Jardinier

Green Is Good: Hunter’s Point South Waterfront Park Opens in NYC
Watch out, High Line, there’s a new park in town. New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg was on hand yesterday to unveil a 5.5-acre waterfront park and several roadways at the site of the Hunter’s Point South development in Queens. We dispatched writer Nancy Lazarus to assess the city’s newest green space.

Many New Yorkers know Long Island City from the Silvercup or Pepsi signs visible across the East River. Art enthusiasts associate LIC with galleries, studios, and MoMA’s PS1. With the opening of Hunter’s Point South Waterfront Park, locals now have recreational reasons to visit. So hop on the subway or East River Ferry and bring your cameras, bicycles, bathing suits, and dogs to NYC’s newest waterfront oasis.
Hunter’s Point South development, formerly known as “Queens West,” would have hosted an Olympic village if New York had won its 2012 bid. New York City Economic Development Corporation is overseeing the project, and Thomas Balsley Associates and Weiss/Manfredi collaborated on Phase 1, the design of the park and open space, with ARUP acting as prime consultant and infrastructure designers. Affordable housing and a school are also being built.
During a recent press tour, Marion Weiss, Michael Manfredi, and Thomas Balsley described how they converted the former marshland and industrial area for leisure use. While the tour was on a bright sunny day, the area was designed to be sustainable and to withstand storms. According to Weiss, the park flooded briefly during storm Sandy, but the water quickly receded, thanks to their water runoff and conservation system. There’s more official interest now in addressing potential floods, Manfredi added.
The pavilion and ferry landing at Hunter’s Point South Waterfront Park
Shade and shelter were also part of the design program, and a pavilion serving as the arrival point is located at the water’s edge. A plate structure overhead, with 64 white, pleated photovoltaic panels, acts as a sun shield and a generator of solar power. Weiss said now they produce enough to power half the park area. The elevated pier and nearby plaza for events are made of weather-resistant kebonized pine.
Greenery abounds, especially on the oval-shaped playing field. To accommodate visitors’ recreation and relaxation needs, the design team used AstroTurf for the inner active lawn area and natural grass on the outer lawn, Balsley explained. Nearby is a garden where freight rails are laid out alongside natural grasses and flowers, forming a serene spot for visitors to wander.
For those looking to socialize, one option is the urban beach along the promenade, intended for taking in the panoramic views of Manhattan while sunbathing. Or as Balsley pointed out, parkgoers can relax nearby while their canines enjoy two dog runs. One run one is for small dogs, the other is for large dogs, and each has separate gates, in case the pets are less socially inclined.
Adults and children have their own exercise choices. At a playground with brightly colored equipment from Landscape Structures, kids can tunnel, swing, or climb. Multiple bike lanes and running paths also wind along the park’s periphery. As Manfredi observed, this represents another change from earlier urban planning, since adjacent Gantry Plaza State Park designed in the 1990s didn’t include bike lanes.
A landmark in the state park still looms large over the landscape. It’s a black gantry tower that was used to lift the transfer bridge on the river. It displays a red “Long Island” sign, and offers a reminder of the area’s industrial maritime heritage. While the preserved structure and sign evoke the former era of rails and river barges, these recent design updates clearly signal the area’s green urban renewal.
Nancy Lazarus’s last contribution to UnBeige was a survey of sleeping bags. Learn about her here.

The data volume also reached an incredible seven TB per second. This means that the budding Flink-based stream-batch unification has successfully withstood strict tests in terms of stability, performance, and efficiency in Alibaba's core data service scenarios. This article shares the practice experience and reviews the evolvement of stream and batch unification within Alibaba's core data services.
As Double 11 ended at midnight on November 12, the Gross Merchandise Volume (GMV) of the 2020 Double 11 Global Shopping Festival was US$74.1 billion. With the support of Flink, the GMV figure is exhibited steadily during the entire festival. The Flink-based real-time computing platform of Alibaba also successfully performed real-time data processing for the Alibaba economy. Once again, Alibaba successfully passed the annual test.
In addition to the GMV dashboard, Flink also provided support for many other critical services. These services include real-time machine learning for search and recommendation, real-time advertisement anti-fraud, real-time tracking and feedback of Cainiao's order status, ECS real-time attack detection, and monitoring and alerting for massive infrastructures. The real-time business and data volume are increasing dramatically every year. This year, the peak rate of real-time computing reached four billion records per second, and the data volume reached an astonishing seven TB per second. This is equivalent to reading five million copies of the Xinhua Dictionary in one second.
So far, the number of Alibaba Cloud's real-time computing jobs has reached more than 35,000. The cluster computing scale is also over 1.5 million CPUs, leading the way worldwide. By now, Flink has supported all the real-time computing needs of the Alibaba economy and has provided great insights to customers, merchants, and operation staffs.
In addition, Flink has practiced unification of stream and batch processing during this year’s Double 11 for the first time, and has successfully withstood strict tests in terms of stability, performance, and efficiency in Alibaba's core business scenarios.
The First Practice of Stream-Batch Unificationin in Alibaba's Core Data Scenarios
The unification of stream and batch processing started at Alibaba long time ago. Flink was first used in the search and recommendation scenario at Alibaba, in which, index building and feature engineering were based on the initial version of unified stream and batch processing in Flink. During this year's Double 11, Flink promoted its capability of stream and batch unification to help the Alibaba data platform achieve more accurate data analysis and business decision-making by cross verifications between real time and offline data
Alibaba offers two types of data reports: real-time reports and offline reports. The former plays an important role in the Double 11 promotion scenario. It can provide real-time information in various dimensions for merchants, operation staffs, and managers. It can also help them make timely decisions to improve the efficiency of the platform and business. Taking real-time marketing data analysis for example, operation staffs and decision-makers need to compare the results of big promotion from different periods, such as the turnover at 10:00 am during the promotion day compared with the turnover at the same time yesterday. Through comparison, they can determine the current marketing effect and whether it is necessary to carry out regulation and control.
In the preceding scenario, two kinds of data analysis reports are required. One is the offline data report calculated based on batch processing every night. The other is the real-time data report generated by stream processing. Through comparing and analyzing the real-time and historical data, decisions can be made. Without unification of stream and batch processing,
offline reports and real-time reports are generated by a batch engine and a streaming engine separately. As a result, doubled development costs are required. It is also difficult to maintain consistent data processing logic for two separate engines, which makes it difficult to ensure processing result consistency. Therefore, the ideal solution is to use one engine to unify stream and batch processing for data analysis, so that offline and real-time analysis results will be consistent naturally. Flink continuously matures its stream and batch unification architecture and successful applied the architecture in search and recommendation scenarios. Hence, the Data Platform Team at Alibaba shows firm confidence and trust during the 2020 Double 11 Global Shopping Festival. The team worked with the Flink Team to promote the technical upgrade of the real-time computing platform. For the first time, Flink stream and batch unification has been successfully landed in the core data scenarios of Double 11.
This year, the stream and batch unification computing framework, jointly developed by the Flink Team and the Data Platform Team, made its debut in the Double 11 core data scenarios. It was also recognized by Peng Xinyu, Head of Alibaba's Data Platform, because of its performance on the business layer. Technically, as a result of stream and batch unification, only one set of code is required for multiple computing processing modes. In addition, the computing speed after unification is twice as fast as other frameworks, and querying is four times faster. Thus, the speed of developing and generating data reports increases four to ten times. Moreover, the full consistency of real-time and offline data is achieved as a result of unification.
In addition to the advancement in business development efficiency and computing performance, the unified stream and batch computing architecture improves cluster resource utilization. After rapid expansion in recent years, Alibaba's Flink real-time cluster now contains millions of CPUs, with tens of thousands of real-time computing tasks running. During the day, computing resources are occupied for real-time data processing. At night, the idle computing resources can be used for offline batch processing for free. The batch processing and the stream processing use the same engine and resources, significantly saving development, O&M, and resource costs. During this year's Double 11, the Flink-based batch and streaming applications did not apply for any additional resources. The batch mode reused the Flink real-time computing cluster, which greatly improved the cluster utilization and saved a large amount of resource overhead. This efficient resource utilization mode also served as the basis for more subsequent business innovations.
Flink Stream-Batch Unification with Great Investment and Efforts
Next, let's review the development of "stream-batch unification" from a technical perspective. Over ten years ago, Hadoop emerged as the first generation of open-source big data technology. MapReduce, the first-generation batch processing technology, solved the problem of large-scale data processing, and Hive allowed users to use SQL for large-scale data computing. However, as big data business scenarios gradually evolved, many applications had increasing demands for real-time data, such as social media, e-commerce transactions, and financial risk control. In this context, Storm emerged as the first-generation big data stream processing technology. Storm is completely different from Hadoop and Hive in architecture in that Storm’s computing model is based on messages, which can process massive data concurrently with millisecond-level latency. Storm solves the latency problem of MapReduce and hive. Thus, these are two different mainstream engines for batch and stream processing of big data computing with completely different patterns. This is called the first era of big data processing technology.
Later, the big data processing technology stepped into its second era when Spark and Flink emerged. Compared with Hadoop and Hive, Spark provided better batch processing capability and better performance. This allowed the Spark community to develop rapidly and gradually surpass Hadoop and Hive. Thus, Spark became the mainstream technology in the field of batch processing. However, Spark did not stop with batch processing technology. Soon, Spark also launched the stream computing solution, called Spark Streaming, and continuously conducted improvement. However, Spark engine is known as "batch processing-oriented" instead of a pure stream computing engine. It cannot provide the experience of stream and batch unification in terms of extreme short latency. Never the less, it was an advanced idea to achieve both stream and batch computing semantics based on a set of core engine technologies. Flink is another new engine with the same concept of stream and batch unification. Flink was officially released a bit later than Spark. Its predecessor was the research project Stratosphere from the Technical University of Berlin in 2009. Flink also aimed at supporting both batch and stream processing with one computing engine. However, Flink chose a different model. Flink adopted the engine architecture oriented aimed to "stream processing" and considered "batch" to be a kind of "bounded traffic." Therefore, it was more natural to unify stream and batch processing based on the stream-oriented engine with no architecture bottleneck. In other words, Flink chose the "batch on streaming" architecture, which is different from Spark's "streaming on batch" architecture.
The complete unification of stream and batch architecture of Flink was not constructed overnight. In the earlier Flink versions, stream and batch processing in Flink were neither completely unified in terms of API nor Runtime. Since Flink 1.9, Flink has accelerated the improvement and upgrade of stream-batch unification. Flink SQL, the most mainstream API for users, took the lead in achieving stream-batch unification semantics. This allows users to use only one set of SQL statements for stream and batch pipeline development, significantly reducing development costs.
However, SQL cannot meet all user requirements. For some tasks requiring a high degree of customization, such as fine-grained manipulation on states, users still need to use DataStream API. In common business scenarios, after submitting a streaming job, users will often create another batch job to replay historical data. Although DataStream can effectively meet various requirements of stream computing scenarios, it does not provide efficient support for batch processing.
Therefore since Flink 1.11, the Flink community started to focus on the improvement of the stream and batch unification capability over DataStream by adding batch processing semantics to the DataStream APIs. By applying the concept of batch and stream unification to the design of Connectors, Flink can connect DataStream APIs with different types of stream and batch data sources, such as Kafka and HDFS. In the future, the unified iterative APIs will be introduced into the DataStream APIs as well for machine learning scenarios.
From the functionality point of view, Flink is still a combination of stream computing and batch computing, using both SQL and the DataStream APIs. Users' code is executed either in the stream mode or in the batch mode. However, some business scenarios place higher requirements on stream-batch unification with automatic switching between stream computing and batch computing. For example, in scenarios of data integration and data lake, full set of data in the database needs to be synchronized to the HDFS or cloud storage services first. Then, incremental data in the database needs to be automatically synchronized. Unified stream and batch ETL processing is performed during such synchronization. Flink will support more intelligent stream-batch unification scenarios in the future.
The Development of Flink-Based Stream-Batch Unification at Alibaba
Alibaba is the first enterprise in China to choose Flink. In 2015, the Search and Recommendation Team wanted to choose a new big data computing engine to meet the challenges of the next 5 to 10 years. The new computing engine would help with processing massive items and user data in the search and recommendation backend. Considering the high requirement for short latency in the e-commerce industry, the team hoped the new computing engine would be capable of both large-scale batch processing and millisecond-level real-time processing. In other words, the engine should be a stream-batch unified engine. At that time, Spark's ecosystem had matured, and the stream-batch unification capability was provided through Spark Streaming. Flink was regarded as the top-level Apache project one year prior. It was an emerging project. After research and discussion about Spark and Flink, the team agreed that although the Flink ecosystem was not mature at that time, its stream processing-based architecture was more suitable for stream-batch unification. Therefore, the team quickly decided to build a real-time computing platform for search and recommendation based on the internal improvement and optimization on Flink within Alibaba.
After one year of hard work by the team, the real-time computing platform for search and recommendation based on Flink successfully supported the Double 11 Global Shopping Festival in 2016. Alibaba gained an understanding of the Flink-based real-time computing engine through its practice in core business scenarios. As a result, all of Alibaba's real-time data services were migrated to the platform. After another year of hard work, Flink successfully the supported real-time data services of Alibaba during the 2017 Double 11 Global Shopping Festival, including the GMV dashboard and other core data service scenarios.
In 2018, Alibaba Cloud launched a real-time computing product based on Flink to provide cloud computing services for small and medium-sized enterprises. Not just to use Flink to solve its own business problems, Alibaba wanted to promote the development of the Flink open-source community, and make more contributions. Alibaba acquired Flink's founding company Ververica in early 2019 and began to invest more resources in the Flink ecosystem and community. By 2020, almost all mainstream technology companies globally have adopted Flink for real-time computing. Flink has become a de facto standard for real-time computing in the big data industry.
The Flink community continues to conduct technical innovation. During the 2020 Double 11 Global Shopping Festival, the Flink-based stream-batch unification performed remarkably in the core marketing decision-making system of Tmall. In addition, Flink-based stream-batch unification successfully completed the stream-batch indexing and machine learning processes in search and recommendation scenarios. These facts proved the decision to choose Flink five years ago was a good one. In the future, we believe more companies will adopt Flink-based stream and batch unification.
The Technical Innovation of Stream-Batch Unification Promotes the Development of the Flink Open-Source Community
The continuous technical innovation of Flink-based stream-batch unification has promoted the rapid development of the Flink open-source community and the Flink ecosystem. As more companies in China adopts Flink, the Flink community in China is growing and becoming the main community worldwide.
The most obvious sign is an increase number of users. Since June 2020, Flink's Chinese email list has become more active than the English email list. The influx of users and developers in the Flink community has led to higher quality code writers, effectively facilitating the development and iteration of the Flink engine.
The number of contributors in each Flink version has been increasing since Apache Flink 1.8.0. Most contributors come from major enterprises in China. Undoubtedly, developers and users in China are gradually becoming the backbone in developing Flink.
As the Chinese community continues to grow, Flink is more active in 2020 than ever before. In the 2020 Fiscal Year Report of Apache Software Foundation, Flink is the most active project of the year in terms of user and developer email list activities. Flink also ranks second in terms of code commitment number and the traffic on the GitHub homepage. It is not easy to achieve such results among nearly 350 top projects from the Apache Software Foundation.

Eibar 0-3 Barcelona: Report, Ratings & Reaction as Front Three All Fire in Vital Away Win
Ben Carter 19 Oct 2019
Barcelona have extended their unbeaten run to 10 games across all competitions with a 3-0 win on the road at SD Eibar on Saturday.
Antoine Griezmann scored the only goal of the first half after just 15 minutes, breaking the offside trap and capitalising on Pablo de Blasis' slip before squeezing the ball past goalkeeper Marko Dmitrović via the inside of the post.
Luis Suárez found the back of the net shortly after the break but was correctly denied by the offside flag, although the Uruguayan was involved soon after as Lionel Messi doubled Barça's lead just before the hour mark.
Suárez eventually did get his name on the scoresheet with a simple finish, but it was a goal that was once again only made possible by Griezmann - the Frenchman's through ball split Eibar's defence for Messi to tee up his Uruguayan teammate.
Half-chances came for both sides as the game went on but neither could add to the scoreline, with Barcelona eventually running out comfortable winners after a hard-fought opening hour in the Basque Country.
Dmitrovic (8); de Blasis (5), Oliveira (7), Arbilla (6), Cote (7); Orellana (7), Diop (5), Alvarez (6), Leon (6); Enrich (7), Charles (6).
Substitutes: Edu Expósito (6), Inui (6), Kike (6).
Key Talking Point
Three points are three points at the end of the day, but any assumptions that Barcelona's trip to Eibar was a walk in the park couldn't be further from the truth.
Barça spent most of their afternoon at the picturesque Municipal de Ipurua on the backfoot, with strikers Charles and Sergi Enrich ensuring that they were a handful throughout, even though very little was created by Eibar's attacking players.
The majority of the visitors' most impressive moments came either from counter-attacks or by exploiting Eibar's high defensive line with long balls - something which saw Griezmann break the deadlock in the first half.
Barcelona's quality eventually shone through as they extended their unbeaten run to 10 games, but there's still plenty of work for Ernesto Valverde's side to do if they want to retain their league title this season.
Ter Stegen (7); Roberto (6), Umtiti (6), Lenglet (8), Alba (7); de Jong (7), Busquets (7), Arthur (6); Messi (8), Suarez (7), Griezmann (9*).
@LuisSuarez9 matches the legendary Josep Samitier with his 184th goal for Barça.
Puts him joint FOURTH on the all-time list! pic.twitter.com/ocoMCENVKe
Substitutes: Semedo (7), Vidal (6), Rakitic (6).
Eyebrows were raised when Antoine Griezmann moved to Barcelona from Atletico Madrid, but the World Cup winner once again proved why he was a fantastic investment from the Blaugrana.
Griezmann's shown his worth thanks to his defensive contributions in recent weeks, but the 28-year-old was also involved in each of Barcelona's three goals on Saturday - getting a goal, an assists, and providing the crucial pass for Suárez's effort.
What an absurd pass from Griezmann. Messi does the right thing to release Suarez. 3-0
— kevinwilliams (@kevvwill) October 19, 2019
Incredible vision from Griezmann there ffs what a player
— Griezmann Chief (@Griezmannility) October 19, 2019
That pass by GRIEZMANN to send Messi tru.
That's an assist in my book, and it should be in everybody else's book too (but it won't, which is just unfair).
— Alex Truica (@AlexTruica) October 19, 2019
Griezmann involved in all three goals today. Plus helping in all other phases of the game. Nicely done.
Griezmann’s scored one of our 3 and created the other 2.
Fantastic performance.
— totalBarça (@totalBarca) October 19, 2019
It wasn't a vintage team performance from Barcelona, but Griezmann stepped up exactly when his side needed him to and showed exactly why the club's key decision makers shelled out €120m for his signature during the summer.
Barcelona break for Champions League duty where they'll be on the road to Sparta Praha, while next week's El Clasico has been postponed.
SD Eibar travel to Real Valladolid on October 26.

You're too cheap. It's hard to get someone who is frugal to suddenly begin to spend down a portfolio. Though we all know we can't take wealth with us, frugality is built into that person's brain. Try framing a purchase as practical: A massage is worth the price if it reduces stress and improves health, not just because it's pleasurable.

You're too generous. I often see clients gifting gobs of money to the kids, yet I'm not sure it's helpful. I've seen some of those kids quit their jobs and lead a life of entitlement. In fact, the generosity at times seems to actually harm relationships, with children demanding more and more.
We're all programmed to be bad investors. We act irrationally, such as buying after an asset has surged only to sell when it plunges. A sign that you're making a bad move is it feels good, and good moves generally feel bad. It's far more rational to buy low and sell high than the reverse, but to do it we've got to fight our instincts.
You're not as savvy financially as you used to be. Financial acuity declines after age 60 by an average of 1 percentage point a year. To better protect yourself from scams and predators, exercise regularly to keep your mind sharper while keeping your body in shape. Use trusted family members as a financial sounding board. Consider consolidating accounts to simplify your financial life. Be skeptical if something looks too good to be true.
You might not truly know how comfortable you are with your plan until stocks plunge. My clients who went through the drops in 2000-2002 and again in 2008-2009 know what I'm talking about. And they know that, during bear markets, not panicking is what defines a good investor.

Discrimination and fear go both ways. Some managers are uncomfortable managing people who are older than they are — just like some people are uncomfortable with a younger boss.
Take your job from 30 years ago off your résumé. It has no relevance to what you can do today. And it makes you look old. Age discrimination is real.
Today's young adults aren't any worse than you were when you first hit the workforce. The older generation always thinks the younger generation is bad news. Don't judge people by their generation and then be shocked when they turn around and judge you by yours.

Stop worrying so much about prestige and using its trappings as measures of your success. Concern about losing prestige or looking like a beginner can blind you to opportunities and block your way to finding the next interesting thing.
People treat you like you're too old when you act and talk like you're too old. If you're resentful of change and can't stop complaining about it, you're broadcasting that you're not quite up for the job. You can transform the way people look at you.

Retired Baltimore homicide detective Bryn Joyce, 69, learned about getting the straight dope questioning victims, witnesses and perps.
They fidget nervously. They touch their nose. They pull an ear. It's like a "tell" for a poker player.
They talk real fast. You almost can't understand what they're saying. It's like they don't really want you to hear them.
They try to change the subject. It's an attempt to deflect your attention.
They repeat the question when you know they've heard it loud and clear. "Wait a minute. Let me get this straight. You're seriously asking me …" It's a stalling tactic as they try to come up with a convincing response.
They won't look you in the eye. Or else they will. It helps if you know how the person usually behaves. If they ordinarily look you in the eye but suddenly don't, they're probably not giving you the whole truth. And vice versa.

The aftershocks of financial benchmark crisis that shook the financial world not-so-long-ago are felt even today with the regulators around the world still picking up the remnants of investor confidence and nursing it back to vitality. The recent (May-2016) wave of Commodity Future Trading Commission’s (CFTC) regulatory orders surrounding alleged benchmark manipulation by Citibank and the consequent settlement penalties to the tune of $425 million (LIBOR - $175mn, and ISDAFix - $250mn) is just the tip of the iceberg. The regulators have imposed fines totalling to over $5 billion so far under the CFTC Enforcement program focused on ensuring the integrity of global financial benchmarks.
“The CFTC remains steadfast in its commitment to ensuring the integrity of global benchmarks that are critical to the U.S. and international financial markets” commented Aitan Goelman, CFTC Director of Enforcement as a clear indication of the intent of the regulators. While penalties are one side of the coin, the flip side reveals requirements of extensive remediation in the form of tighter control through compliance and supervisory controls or enhancements such as:
Procedures for Integrity and Reliability in Benchmark Rate Submissions
Supervisory Reviews
Stricter Controls over Qualifications of Supervisors, Submitters and Reviewers (of benchmark) and Training
Internal Controls regarding improper communications and submissions
Elaborate Requirements for Reporting, Storage and Documentation and,
Enhancements to Monitoring and Auditing, Policies, Procedures and Controls
Not just in the United States, regulators across major financial centres have undertaken such activities to restore the credibility of the existing benchmarks and contain structural risk. There is a clear convergence of regulatory practices involving an overhaul of the determination and submission processes, choice of input data and reporting and post-submission analysis of the benchmarks. The implementation of a waterfall based sequential methodology in major benchmarks such as LIBOR, EURIBOR, TIBOR and the like stands as a testimony to this. On the other hand, regulators are also actively seeking to find alternatives to these long-standing yet tainted benchmarks. Alternatives - which are robust, market-driven, structurally-stable and capable of replacing existing behemoths. The Sterling Risk-Free Rates activity by the Bank of England, the Study Group on Risk-Free References in Japan, National Working Group of Switzerland, Secured Benchmark Indices Joint task Force in Europe and the Alternative Reference Rates Committee in the United States - are all basically cogs of this very objective. That begets the question ‘what does this mean to the investor?’ Clearly, it does not require any soothsayers to predict what lies ahead. Banks and Financial Institutions need to brace for the impact of regulatory vigour by aligning their strategic, operational and technological objectives towards the goal of building a resilient financial system. It may be a challenging exercise, but one that is necessary. While the changes come to force and fructify, investors can expect to bask in the hope for robust, reliable and stable markets and financial ecosystem.

Who is At Fault in a Robotaxi Accident?
Waymo began as the Google Self-Driving Car Project in 2009. Beginning with modest goals of completing 100-mile routes, Waymo vehicles have now completed hundreds of thousands of miles using self-driving technology. Now Waymo and Volvo have announced a partnership to integrate Waymo software into a Volvo vehicle designed for ride-sharing.
According to the companies, the first phase will be to “work together to integrate the Waymo Driver into an all-new mobility-focused electric vehicle platform for ride-hailing services.” The new vehicle platform claims to be capable of Level 4 autonomy. Level 4 is considered high automation, with vehicles capable of performing all driving functions under certain conditions by the driver may have the option to control the vehicle.
Waymo has partnered with a number of other automobile companies, including Fiat Chrysler, Jaguar Landrover, Renault, and Nissan. These partnerships include supplying the vehicles with Waymo's self-driving car technology for research and for consumer vehicles. Additionally, Volvo has already supplied special Volvo XC90s to Uber Advanced Technologies Group.
Autonomous vehicles are being tested with ride-sharing companies like Lyft, including in Las Vegas, Pittsburgh, and Singapore. These test programs still have an operator in the vehicle to act as a back-up in case something goes wrong. However, more than 100,000 self-driving rides have already been completed in Las Vegas.
Robotaxi Accident Injuries
According to Volvo's Chief Technology Officer, Henrik Green, “fully autonomous vehicles have the potential to improve road safety to previously unseen levels and to revolutionize the way people live, work and travel.”
However, as with other autonomous vehicles, there will surely be errors and malfunctions in Robotaxis that cause injury to pedestrians, cyclists, other drivers, or even the passenger. When a robotaxi accident does occur, the injury victim may not be sure who was at fault.
Like other car accidents, accidents involving rideshare companies often involve each party and insurance company pointing fingers at the other. In a robotaxi accident, the ride-hailing company may try to blame another driver while the accident victim blames the software or automation technology.
It is important to have someone on your side if you are injured in any type of auto accident, including a rideshare accident or other Denver vehicle crashes. Your personal injury attorney will be able to investigate the accident, including reviewing vehicle data, recordings, and show whether the vehicle software or hardware was to blame. If an autonomous vehicle caused the accident, the company may be liable for damages.
Under Colorado product defect laws, the injury victim generally does not need to show that any specific person was negligent. The injury victim may be able to hold the manufacturer strictly liable by showing that the product was defective and the defective product caused the injury.

Text description provided by the architects. The site is located along an arterial road that runs through the countryside. In the neighborhood stand private residences and a grove of the village shrine surrounding a passage to the shrine. The building is made of mortar and galvanized steel sheet which reflects dull light, making it look massive. It is laid out to be accommodated within the L-shaped lot and stands to face the shrine on the opposite side.
The building is to be used as a studio and gallery of the photographer and his residence as well.The client requested to unite the studio where he produces works with his living space. Thus, I came up with an optimum plan by clarifying how the resident wants to live instead of segmenting the space by function.
The dim passage from the entrance approach invites visitors into the innermost space while guiding them with light thrown from the ceiling of the connected gallery. The gallery clips out a landscape with the opening to look like an exhibition. Its contrasted scale and natural light resonate with each other.
Ground Floor Plan
The space that quietly inspires a feeling of exaltation among ordinary life also plays a role of the photogenic shooting location.
The long thin passage serving as an alley to go around the gallery has other functions than a mere pathway; it is also used as a space to post artworks and photos on the wall. It is beautifully themed with sight switching, different ceiling heights, and shade and shadow created by natural light.
The hall that is located at the center of the building with different floor levels plays a role of a hub which connects with each space. It also incorporates plumbing equipment, a counter, and a staircase that are necessary for living, and is connected to an approach from the courtyard, thus not only providing functional comfort but also displaying scenic beauty.
The building used as a living space also offers a dynamic space with proportion and scale that allow it to serve as a photo studio. The light coming through the high-side light envelops the room, enabling photo-shooting with natural light.
Photo shooting equipment, vintage furniture, musical instrument, and artworks are placed here and there, blending in with space. It acts in concert with the photographer’s feeling and aesthetic and acts as the base to produce new creativity and activities.

Current: Why Tra...
Why Travelers in the Know are Booking A Douro River Cruise in Portugal
River or Ocean Cruises Portugal
Have you taken a river cruise in Europe yet? The 'Big Three' river cruises are the Rhine, the Danube and the Rhone/Saone. You may have heard about cruising on the Seine, even Main and Moselle cruises.
But for a little 'off the beaten track' river cruising in Europe, Portugal's Douro river is enjoying its day in the sun. Warm-weather Portugal, in the heart of the Porto wine region's, scenic villages, history and picture-perfect vineyards, is an idyllic spring, summer and fall river cruising destination.
Here's why we love river cruising on the Douro:
The Douro river flows from Spain in the east, across northern Portugal to the western city of Porto on the Atlantic coast. Bookended by two UNESCO World Heritage cities, a river cruise on the scenic Douro Valley passes through mainly rural landscapes with historic villages, dramatic cliffs, famous vineyards, and for many people, the heart of Portugal's Latin culture.

Even early and late in the season, the weather in Portugal is warmer and drier than in other popular river cruising destinations in Northern Europe, so if basking in pleasant summer weather is how you picture a river cruise, the Douro is for you.
The Highlights:
At the eastern end of the Douro: Spain. Most itineraries include nearby, renowned Salamanca, a UNESCO World Heritage city, with a 13th century university where Christopher Columbus once studied, and whose signature golden sandstone architecture glows in the summer sun.
At the western end of the route, the port city of Porto (pictured top; image: Getty/Mirifada) is the second largest in Portugal (behind Lisbon), and also a UNESCO World Heritage Site. If its famous bridge reminds you of the Eiffel Tower, you are not crazy; its architect studied under Eiffel. It was a small world, even in the 19th century.
A river cruise on the Douro is even more charming passing through the undisturbed countryside between the ports at either end. The Douro is far less traveled than the major European river cruise routes. You may rarely even see other river cruise boats or guests in the small villages where you can wander in a truly local, authentic, un-hurried rhythm and un-touristy environment.
The Wine:
The name of the city of Porto suggests its long-lasting claim to fame. This is the home of port wine as you may have guessed, and also other delectable Portuguese wines like Muscatel. It's one of the world's oldest wine producing regions, with two millennia of viticulture traditions.
When it comes to port wine, a Douro river cruise brings you to the doorstep of some of the region's best places to experience a rich and storied wine that has become less commonly served. (These days, it's mostly in British costume dramas where we see men retreating to their studies and clubs for 'port and cigars').
You can sip your way along the Douro river with expert, hosted wine tastings in famous and out of the way wineries, including the UNESCO World Heritage Vinhateiro wine region, the scenic Varosa Valley, the beautiful vineyards of Regua that produce the best range of port wine in the country, Casa de Mateus, the castle made famous on the labels of Portugal’s renowned Mateus wine, and other viticulture treats.

4. L. Modern historians
'Crossroads to Islam' by Yehuda D. Nevo and Judith Koren written in 2003 uses archaeology surveys from the early Islamic time period to promote his theory Mohammed most likely never lived. Islam's worship of one God he feels developed after the time period Mohammed allegedly had lived. David Cook praises the authors thorough approach and calls their conclusions 'plausible or at least arguable.' Of note is Colin Wells claim their conclusions are sometimes illogical, even resembling Holocaust denial.
Others also conclude Mohammed didn't exist such as Professor Muhammed SvenKalisch, a Muslim convert who was the first to teach Islamic theology in Germany. His claims others agree with. The Dutch scholar Hans Jansen also agrees evidence is lacking.
4.M Author Rob Spencer
Robert Spencer, a contemporary writer on Islam, wrote the book 'Did Muhammed Exist?' and he is quite thorough in his compilation of evidence against this possibility. Dallas Roark makes salient points in his review of the book and I'll mention some key ones. Spencer provides a good summation for the case against Mohammed's existence. His website is also extremely informative and addresses many questions one might have.. I don't think it appropriate to name it here but one can find it when inquiring about Mr. Spencer. Does it have a slant? Seemingly so. As we know having a slant can color all information that a person processes. Even so, I don't have the ability to prove or disprove its contentions. Again, many questions we ask ourselves are addressed and we should read the answers with some detachment and not force a final judgment either way.
Spencer states there is hardly any data on Mohammed in the Qur'ann. To quote him directly “The word “Mohammed” appears 4 times in the Qur'an. In three of the cases it could merely refer to a title, “the praised one,” or “chosen one.” Other names like Abraham appear 79 times, Moses 136 times, Pharaoh 74 times. The title “messenger of Allah” appears 300 times. Surah 33:40 is certainly a reference to a person, but it tells nothing about the life of Mohammed. Surah 48:29 also names Mohammed as a messenger of Allah.” He says “we can glean nothing from these passages about Mohammed's biography. Nor is it even certain, on the basis of the Qur'anic text alone, that these passages refer to Mohammed, or did so originally.”
He then claims the hadiths (traditions), while numerous, are not truthful and consistent because actual data on Mohammed's life was not known
As discussed in other sections the sira (biographical information) consisting of a biography by Ibn Ishaq (d. 773) written 125 years after Mohammed lived, survives in fragments from an edited version by Ibn Hisham from the early 10th century. There were more biographies but they were all written later.
The 'Doctrina Jacobi,' written by a Christian around 634 to 640, speaks of the Saracens coming with an army led by the prophet. The writer when asked by an old man about the prophet leading them answered “He is false, for the prophets do not come armed with a sword.” Important to note is Mohammed had died already and mentioned elsewhere in the document is 'the anointed one' referring to 'the Christ to come.'
Spencer continues “there is not a single account of any kind dating from around the time the Doctrina Jacobi was written that affirms the canonical Islamic story of Mohammed and Islam's origins.'
When conquered by Umar the patriarch of Jerusalem Sophronius never talks of Mohammed or the Qur'an and the Saracens were called 'godless.'
John of Nikiou, a Coptic Christian bishop, mentioned 'Muslim' for the first time in 690 AD. He talks about 'false Egyptian Christians' embracing the Muslim religion and accepting the 'detestable doctrine and Mohammed' and later fighting the Christians. However it is known only from an Ethiopic translation from the Arabic which was a translation from the original Greek or another language.
Spencer is a good concise thinker and lists what is known or not about the life of Mohammed and early Islam. No record of Mohammed's reported death in 632 appears until more than a century after that date.
The early accounts written by the people the Arabs conquered never mention Islam, Mohammed, or the Qur'an. They call the conquerors “Ishmaelites,” “Saracens,” “Muhajirun,” and “Hagarians” but never “Muslims.”
The Arab conquerors, in their coins and descriptions, don't mention Islam or the Qur'an for the first six decades of their conquests. Mentions of “Mohammed” are non-specific and on at least two occasions are accompanied by a cross. The word can be used not only as a proper name but also as an honorific.
The Qur'an, even by the canonical Muslim account, was not distributed in its present form until the 650's. Contradicting that standard account is the fact that neither the Arabian nor the Christians and Jews in the region mention the Qur'an until the early eighth century.
During the reign of the caliph Muawiya (661-680) the Arabs constructed at least one public building whose inscriptions were headed by a cross.
We begin hearing about Mohammed, the prophet of Islam, and about Islam itself in the 690's, during the reign of the caliph Abd-al-Malik. Coins and inscriptions reflecting Islamic beliefs begin to appear at this time also.
Abd al-Malik claimed, in a passing remark in one hadith, to have collected the Qur'an, contradicting Islamic tradition that the collection was the work of the caliph Uthman forty years earlier.
The biographical material that emerged situates Mohammed in an area of Arabia that never was the center for trade and pilgrimages that the canonical Islamic account of Islam's origin depend on it to be.
These were some of the major highlights Spencer argues against the historicity of Mohammed.
The obvious next question is if Mohammed didn't initiate Islam how did it come about. Robert Spencer's thesis is that the Arabian empire was first established, then came the religion. In his words “The earliest Arab rulers appear to have been adherents of Hagarism, a monotheistic religion centered around Abraham and Ishmael.” As mentioned there were coins with crosses on them hinting they were not against Christianity at first. Spencer holds when they invaded cultures successfully they noticed as with the Romans a common theology helped unite all the different cultures. Later, maybe around 691 the religion became more identified with an Arabic identity.
Around this time, “the Umayyads began to speak more specifically about Islam, its prophet and eventually its book.” The Christian and Jewish scriptures could be adapted for their purposes and Mohammed even if a myth would serve as their own prophet. Jesus was no longer the 'praised one.' That went to Mohammed.
In 750 the Umayyad's no longer ruled. The Abbasids came into power and regarded the former as not observant and ambivalent concerning Islamic history. Writing of traditions flourished under the new rulers and the Umayyads responded by doing the same. As a result over 600,000 hadiths were created all not authentic. To my own mind the truth, or theories about history can have a sense of humor.
4. N. What makes Islam so different?
I had read a chapter on Spencer's site on 'Violence' awhile ago and had it in my notes to review and also took notes on it but for some reason did not reread the site until now. To note the rest of site reviews many subjects around Islam in a critical way and covers many topics. Perhaps if I chose to redo this section this site would have been a good place to start. It outlined and covered much of the information I've picked up from different sources here and there. In any event I will use it to round out the picture and give you a taste of what it has to say, much of which I mention elsewhere. You can find it on the internet if you choose to read it more thoroughly. The perspective from the site is from the present looking back.
The authors emphasize that many Muslims are peaceful and in general believe the basic tenants of Islam conform with the Judeo Christian ethic to do good. They often overlook the more violent passages or use cross reference and 'context' arguments to temper these aggressive scriptures. There are very few tolerant verses to counter the violent ones. Modern believers often bypass these sections and adapt their own personal ethics to the scriptures as their way to behave. In doing so they overlook the actual content of what is put forth. The authors do have perspective in that they conclude that it is not bad people they are condemning but bad ideology.
For the most part, what is put forth is that non-Muslims are to be battled until they submit to rule with humiliation, convert or be subject to the sword. A tremendous trail of blood has followed the path of Islam. When in the majority the minority of non-believers are persecuted harshly as in Pakistan. When in the minority as in Europe they threaten with chaos and upheaval. Terrorism follows both. Please note the moderate Muslims are not being referred to, but rather the fundamentalists.
The writers make a comparison of the Qur'an to the Torah, calling many of the Qur'an verses 'open ended' or not placed in a proper historical setting and surroundings. Of course many Muslims would disagree. 109 verses in the Qur'an deal with war with non-believers. Chopping off heads and fingers and killing them wherever they escape is often sited. The Muslims that don't join in such actions will be sent to hell by Allah. Nice.
All the violent passages from the Qur'an are listed in this section. I'll quote a few.
Qur'an (8:67) It is not for a Prophet that he should have prisoners of war until he has made a great slaughter in the land.
Qur'an (9:29) "Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued."
Qur'an (9:30) "And the Jews say: Ezra is the son of Allah; and the Christians say: The Messiah is the son of Allah; these are the words of their mouths; they imitate the saying of those who disbelieved before; may Allah destroy them; how they are turned away!"
Qur'an (47:3-4) "Those who disbelieve follow falsehood, while those who believe follow the truth from their Lord. So, when you meet (fighting Jihad in Allah's Cause), those who disbelieve smite at their necks till when you have killed and wounded many of them, then bind a bond firmly (on them, i.e. take them as captives)... If it had been Allah's will, He Himself could certainly have punished them (without you). But (He lets you fight), in order to test you, some with others. But those who are killed in the Way of Allah, He will never let their deeds be lost."
Okay this is just a sample of the 109 verses. Some of the Muslim exploits consist of eliminating tens of millions of Hindus starting around 1000 AD for 5 centuries thereafter. Mahmud of Ghazni and Tamerlane killed multitudes who were fighting for their temples. Buddhism nearly was annihilated off of the continent. According to the writers, Judaism and Christianity followed a similar path albeit more gradually under conquered territories as per the Middle East, North Africa, parts of Europe and Turkey. Many religions were almost wiped out such as the Persian Zoroastrianism. They claim on this site that violence is an integral part of Islam and they war all the time, with themselves as well as other religions.
I will let the authors speak for themselves in the next paragraph. They say “Mohammed was a military leader, laying siege to towns, massacring the men, raping their women, enslaving their children, and taking the property of others as his own. On several occasions he rejected offers of surrender from the besieged inhabitants and even butchered captives. He inspired his followers to battle when they did not feel it was right to fight, promising them slaves and booty if they did and threatening them with Hell if the did not. Mohammed allowed his men to rape traumatized women captured in battle, usually on the very day their husbands and family members were slaughtered.” Somewhat of a brutal description. Some say the verses just describe war in general, but these wars were started by the Muslims.
A Sunni contemporary theologian al-Qaradawi feels terror attacks are justified because in war times civilian populations are still the enemy. The Qurayza Jews were totally wiped out five years after Mohammed came to Medina. By demand from their leader they stayed neutral when Meccans invaded and peacefully gave in to Muslim demands after the Meccans were turned back. Still, every male was beheaded from the Qurayza, women and children enslaved, and he even raped a captive himself humorously called :same day marriage.”
The well regarded modern scholar Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi defends aggressive Jihad saying “in the Jihad you are seeking, you look for the enemy and invade him......Islam has the right to take initiative....this is God's religion and it is for the whole world......it attacks various institutions and traditions to release human beings from their poisonous influences,.......” Powerful stuff.
A Dr. Salah al-Sawy, chief member of the Assembly of Muslim Jurists in America, says “the Islamic community does not possess the strength to engage in offensive jihad at this time,” hinting it does and will when they do have the strength
4. O. Succession
Perpetual war followed after Mohammed's death with no orderly succession. First there were the 'Apostasy wars,' keeping far away tribes true to Islam. The infighting followed. Those who traveled with Mohammed to Mecca fought those from Mecca. A struggle ensued between his wife and daughter, foretelling the Shias and Sunnis conflict.
The writers claim Muslims show little inclination for self-evaluation and honesty and dialogue. The standards by which the West judges itself when applied to Islam is subpar. Slavery, imperialism, intolerance, misogyny, sexual repression and warfare are grist for the mill. The violent verses of the Qur'an are taken as the word of God. Every twelfth verse in this book talks of some kind of hostility towards non-believers. Moderate Muslims seem to ignore this and use their personal ethics to guide them, but many take them literally. There exist few non-violent verses. Many believe Islam is basically like Christianity, honoring peace, love and tolerance. They are often ignorant of what actually is in the Qur'an. Ibn Khaldun, a revered Islam scholar, sees”the holy war as a religious duty, because of the universalism of the Muslim mission and (the obligation to) convert everybody to Islam either by persuasion or by force.
At Cairo's al-Azhar university ISIS has never been castigated because the university's Grand Imam, Ahmed al-Tayeb explained: 'Al Azhar cannot accuse any Muslim of being a kafir (infidel), as long as he believes in Allah and the Last Day-even if he commits every atrocity.”
The authors see political correctness taken too far by accepting a broad based universalism between all religions while Islam maintains its own agenda.
I'm presenting all this as information to be absorbed and as data to be collected. At this time my own opinion or conviction is not part of the conversation.
4. P. Peaceful Verses
Often it is said there are numerous peaceful verses in the Qur'an. The authors find that while there are verses that seem tolerant towards others and speak to brotherhood, when delved into the circumstances around such utterances serve an underlying motive. Often they are not the majority when talking about peaceful notions or in some way are vulnerable themselves to outside forces. Mohammed preached peace while he was building to a point where he could then subjugate.
For example Qur'an (109:6) To you be your religion, and to me be mine.
This originated when Mohammed had little power in Mecca, if at all. Later, with power, he destroyed all the idols the people prayed to.
Qur'an (8:61) But if they incline to peace, you also incline to it...
Taken in an isolated setting which it often is, it appears tolerant. The actions of Mohammed's warriors never reflected this, instead doing the exact opposite.
Taken in context the text that follows it states :”make ready against them all you can................... including steeds of war to threaten the enemy of Allah and your enemy, and others besides whom you may not know but whom Allah does know.”
Numerous examples are listed.

Angharad's open minded and experimental approach to music has made her a favourite amongst theatre makers. She often draws on the traditional music of Wales as inspiration, but can turn to classical, hip-hop or even avant-guard experimental music, depending on what's needed for each production.
Her violin is always at the core of the sound, but this can appear in a number of guises, such has the deep, soulful sound of her octave violin, or the electronic effects of her electric violin, or simply by experimenting with the timbre or tuning of her standard violin. She also plays ukulele, sings and introduces percussion instruments to create atmpspheric soundscapes.
Her first experience of writting for theatre was through Leeway Productions 10 Minute Musical Project in 2016. During this project Angharad worked with writer Branwen Davies to create a 10 minute musical.
She has since written music for Cwmni Pendraw's 2071 production (2016) with actor Wyn Bowen Harries. This production was a Welsh translation of Chris Rapley's talk on climate change.
She has also worked with Avant Cymru writting original music for hip-hop dance production Blue Scar, working with beatboxer Beat Technique and guitarist Darius Nash.

Future State: 5 Characters From DC Who Would Be A Perfect Fit For Batman (& 5 Who Won’t!)
By Swagata Das November 30, 2020No Comments
DC Comics’ Future State storyline is shaking things up in the world of superheroes. And Future State Batman is as of now still a mystery to the readers.
With Magistrate having taken over the city of Gotham and Bruce Wayne going underground as the Dark Detective, someone has taken it upon themselves to wear the cape and the cowl and prowl the streets of Gotham at night to save unsuspecting citizens.
The identity of this new Batman – the Future State Batman is for now unknown. But that is not to say people are not speculating about who it could be behind the cowl. Here are 5 characters from the comics who probably took up the mantle of this new Batman, and 5 who are definitely not it!
Not It: Slade Wilson –
I mean, come on! This new Batman could never be Slade Wilson aka Deathstroke. Sure, he might not be the biggest fan of the Magistrate and will oppose him in some ways, but to think he is the one behind the cowl is kind of preposterous.
While he does have the skill for it, he doesn’t have the heart or the motivation to be Batman. The only way he could ever do that is if Waller puts a bomb on his spine and threatens to blow his head off!
Could Be: Terry McGinnis –
The original Batman Beyond being the Future State Batman? Not that farfetched, to be honest. And fans would absolutely love that, as far as we can tell. Although we don’t yet know if Batman Beyond himself would be a part of the Future State event. But if he is not, introducing that Batman as the new one would be an appreciated turn of events.
Anyway fans have wanted to have the character of Terry McGinnis resurrected properly. And this could be the perfect way to do it, without having to add unnecessary family drama to it!
Not It: Damien Wayne –
The son of Batman would have been a perfectly suitable candidate to take on the role of Batman. But there are a lot of issues with that, if you ask the readers. Mostly because the best choice is often the one wrong choice.
Many are even speculating the Damien is actually the current Red X. With Tim being back as Robin, him and Damien fighting it out in the Future State storyline would be great!
Could Be: Azrael –
If Azrael really is the man behind the cowl, then it wont be his first time taking up the mantle of the Dark Knight. After breaking his back in Knightfall, Bruce Wayne had to lay low for a while, nd it was Azrael who became the interim vigilante of Gotham.
With the video game – Batman: Arkham Knight and the show in Fox – Gotham, the character of Azrael got a lot more traction with the fans. And to see him be the next Batman won’t be a bad choice.
Not It: Dick Grayson –
Dick is done with all things Batman by now. After trying to be Batman for so long, he gave it up to get out of the shadows of his mentor. So it would be a cold day in hell before Dick takes up the mantle of Batman again and foregoes his Nightwing persona.
As much as he loves Bruce and would help him and the Bat family out in their times of need, he rightly left Gotham for Bludhaven and became Nightwing. He has his Nightwing storyline going on in the Future State plot and that’s where he is gonna stay!
Could Be: Timothy Fox –
Remember Timothy Fox? The non-Luke son of Lucius Fox? Yep, that’s the one. There have been rumors that the Future State Batman is a man of colors, and Timothy fits the bill quite well. After he found out that the people he was working for were shady, he quit his job and vanished.
Because of working for a Wayne enterprise competitor, Timothy had gotten quite a earful from his father, and has been absent from the comics scene for some time now. So this can be a good way to reintroduce him to the fold.
Not It: Aaron Cash –
An admirer of Batman, Aaron Cash is one of the good guys working as a security guard for Arkham Asylum. Cash was introduced in Arkham Asylum: Lining Hell #1 and but is mostly known as a character in Batman video games – especially the Batman: Arkham games.
But he is probably not a choice for the caped crusader for quite a few reasons. He is older and wiser and is not one for reckless stunts that we usually relate with the vigilante of Gotham city. Also, he is missing a hand, and a Batman without a hand, is not likely to fly with the story.
Could Be: Duke Thomas –
When Duke Thomas became The Signal, the readers were surprised, but pleasantly so. With how much he respects Batman and the whole vigilante life, the fact that he chose to become a hero of his own was appreciated by many.
But it is not to say, that with Bruce Wayne gone from the immediate picture. Thomas wont take it upon himself to be the hero that Gotham needs. His dedication to keeping the people safe could very well be his motivation to take up the mantle of the Dark Knight in Future State.
Not It: Jason Todd –
Jason Todd is a lot of things, but a Batman is not one of them. Jason is too unpredictable and trigger happy to be a Batman. And moreover, like Dick, Todd has his own stories going on in the Future State storyline.
Todd wasn’t even okay with the Robin mantle, and soon donned up the Red Hood suit, which is frankly more his style. So nope! Jason Todd as Future State Batman is definitely not happening!
Could Be: Luke Fox –
Luke Fox is probably the best choice to be the Future State Batman right now. He first came into the foray of vigilantism as Batwing, and has made a name for himself through his own heroics. Like his father, Luke is a genius as well, and created his own Batwing suit.
With Batman gone underground, it is very likely that Luke Fox took it upon himself to keep the streets of Gotham safe as the cowl and cape wearing vigilante. And also, given the rumors that the Future State Batman is a man of color – he would be the perfect choice from DC!

The Major Studio Animated Movies of 2021: Your Don’t-Miss List!
Animation Newsmakers: Our Top Stories of 2020
Riki Group recently embarked on a major rebrand. This version of the new logo is inspired by upcoming feature film Finnick.
Ramin Zahed
Founded in St. Petersburg in 2003, Riki Group has grown into one of the leading lights of Russian animation, and built an international presence with hits such as its flagship franchise Kikoriki. Today, Riki Group includes a production center, a design studio, two animation studios – Petersburg Animation Studio and Aeroplane Production Center; Marmalade Media, a multi-brand licensing agency; 4Screens, a studio producing children’s game content for YouTube; a publishing house and other companies. We recently caught up with Mark Zavadskiy, CEO of Riki Group to find out more about how the company made the most of a challenging year – and what lies ahead.
Mark Zavadskiy
Animag: Can you tell us what’s new at Riki this fall season?
Mark Zavadskiy: Firstly, this year started with the announcement about Riki Group’s consolidation of the shares of Aeroplane JSC together with its famous brand, The Fixies, which significantly strengthened the company’s portfolio and position in the market. This media assets consolidation deal marks another milestone in the growth strategy of the animation holding. Earlier, Riki Group acquired the Tina & Tony brand assets through an equity share purchase in Digital Television Company as well as the assets of the Riki Development Fund (more than 10 animation projects), with an equity share purchase from the Inter-State Development Corporation.
Secondly, all our flagship projects – namely The Fixies, Tina & Tony, BabyRiki and Kikoriki – have released new seasons in Russia, and for Kikoriki it’s for the first time in 10 years. As for our worldwide presence, it has been widened through to numerous new partnerships: Tina & Tony was acquired by Epic Story Media for U.S. and Canada, and Edutainment Licensing will distribute the series in the U.K., Australia and New Zealand, as well as worldwide for school and library digital platforms. This fall, Tina & Tony premiered on France 5 and Brazil’s Gloobinho. The Fixies series went to P1KFILM SDN BHD in Asia and the features were taken by Amazon Prime, Tubi TV (owned by Fox Corporation), Pluto TV (ViacomCBS), Roku TV – they will be also shown in Poland by the most-watched channel, Polsat, and in Brazil on Gloob. PinCode and Kikoriki were also broadcasted in Israel (GHI Media) and Canada (ToonAVision). Moreover, Da Vinci Media took PinСode for its channels and VOD apps available in multiple territories, such as Russia and CIS, Poland, Asia, Middle East, Africa, Greece and Turkey.
Thirdly, we have actually entered into a large-scale strategic partnership with Yandex, Russia’s leading digital and tech company. And we are still anticipating more changes that will support our updated identification.
The Fixies
Which new shows are you offering at the fall markets?
While we have a dozen projects in development, we brought new preschool series Beardy Bodo to MIPCOM 2020. It follows the adventures of a hilarious character, Bodo, who knows nothing but he’ll teach anything and everything. This is a riotous series that teaches kids to read. Young viewers will be taken on a journey beginning with studying each individual letter and moving to reading exercises led by Bodo, a grouchy man with an enormous beard who doesn’t know how to read very well himself. Solving simple puzzles, playing games and stopping Bodo from hiding the letters, kids will soon be able to memorize the alphabet and improve their reading skills. Bodo’s ridiculous and misguided “teaching” is, of course, really all about activating kids to learn from content and the world around them, while having a good laugh and feeling pretty smart about being smarter than Bodo!
At MIPCancun and ATF we also present IPs in development. Last year, our Weatherville received the main prize of ATF 2019’s pitching. This is an educational series dedicated to the most unpredictable and discussed topic — the weather. Kids learn that there’s no such thing as bad weather, just like there’s no such thing as bad temper! In 2020 we bring educational comedy series Question Club, psychotherapy adventure comedy The Amazing Spoilers, and series Above the Ceiling for preschoolers.
Beardy Bobo
Are you bringing any features to the AFM market this year?
Riki’s upcoming feature Finnick is now in production and international sales for the project are in full swing. Another project in production is an animation comedy by the director of Kikoriki under the title Teddy Boom, and it will be presented to the platforms as we plan to develop it as a digital release.
We heard about Riki’s new branding effort… can you tell us what’s new in terms of branding and partnerships with other studios around the world?
All the latest changes have led us to a new level, which demanded an updated approach to our style. Riki Group has launched an overall rebranding with changes to the company logo, visual design and brand philosophy. The dynamic transformation of the business structure and active development of Riki Group projects in both the Russian and international markets led to this redefinition of the company’s essence, values and mission. The rebranding process is being carried out in stages over the course of 2021-2022 and will eventually cover all aspects of the company’s operations.
As for the partnership, Riki has recently teamed up with leading Chinese companies. Youku Kids, a division of Alibaba Group, a global digital commerce company, participates in joint production of the second season of Tina & Tony. New episodes were released in China in August in the Youku Top 3 (leading position among foreign content according to the popularity index). The popularity of the project helped us to launch a licensing program in China this year. And Tencent Video, who previously had great success with The Fixies brand in China, now invests in the production of the fourth season. The first 18 episodes of the new season will be produced by December 2020 and the full season should be delivered by June 2022. The series will be released simultaneously in Russia and China. In addition, Tencent commissioned Hebei TV to create a new TV sci-fi game show for kids: Fixie Lab. Both deals are strategically important for the brand’s development.

What do you want the global animation community to know about Riki in 2021?
Riki Group supports a very important and promising trend by developing adult animation. This will not only lead our company beyond the bounds of kids and preschool content but will help to develop animation in Russia in this highly demanded direction. At the Russian ComicCon together with KinoPoisk HD, we announced the launch of the Riki.Lab competition for adult animated series projects. Talented authors and animators will have the opportunity to create unique projects for the Russian audience, and I hope for international as well.
We will also continue the work of our recently launched department of educational projects. It creates educational products aimed at learning the basic skills for life in a playful way, socializing the individual, popularizing science and scientific knowledge. Every year this direction is becoming more and more in demand and necessary, the consumption of children’s popular science content is growing, and the development of the digital environment opens up wide opportunities for the implementation of creativity. I suppose that next year we will present a new project that combines animation, game mechanics and offline presence.
Our studio is increasing its capacity in contract production. Riki Group partners with Roy Production in the making of the Super Meow series, which was previously named the largest investment deal in the Russian animation market. The studio plans to launch about 15 projects by 2025.
What does the Russian animation scene look like in late 2020 and what are some of the challenges you have faced in the COVID-19 era?
Obviously, the industry in Russia faced tough times due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We faced difficulties in the transition to remote work, but thanks to new technological solutions, both studios continued to work without intermission. Moreover, Riki even reached record production volumes despite the pandemic. The development of the new projects also did not stop.
So, for example, new circumstances pushed us to a decisive transition to cloud technologies. Special effects in animation are challenging and require modern technologies. In our previous lives before the pandemic, we took it for granted that production was concentrated in the office. However, when we all switched to remote work we had to look for solutions to make the new home office of each of our employees equally technically equipped. And with the help of cloud technologies, that were provided to us by our partner from Yandex, we managed to do this. We’ve just finished this global transition, and, of course, it was gradual, as it took time to study and implement new technologies. We hope that our creative employees have hardly noticed any changes. We have tried to make this process as comfortable as possible and to preserve all their work habits.
The move to cloud technology has allowed us to take the worry out of storage security. Moreover, now we can increase production volumes at any time without planning in advance to buy new equipment for the office, since the clouds are available at any time and provide unlimited storage volumes. And it also allows us to seamlessly integrate into our production process unique specialists from different cities of Russia, and even different countries, due to the project management system deployed in the clouds, which was developed by us several years ago. It is unlikely that it will be possible to calculate the direct benefits of such a transition now: this is just a different way of life, new opportunities that will certainly manifest themselves in the near future.

What Drives Us Forward: Lessons for a Great America
In the wake of a tumultuous election, what can the audience expect for social healing in a changing, polarized America? Rich addresses social change in the US, helping his audience navigate immediate political developments and long-term social trends. His talk is perfect for corporations and nonprofit organizations and universities seeking to understand and address this country’s pressing conflicts. Rich speaks to the divides between a traditional, more socially-conservative America versus a younger, emergent, more racially diverse one — both very on edge politically. Rich offers the audience real-time, original insight into today’s conflicts over race, class, income inequality, gender, LGBT rights, and more. Leaving behind speculation or tired red-state, blue-state clichés, he unpacks an increasingly multicultural, complex nation. Rich offers key takeaways to help audiences plan and act for the present and future. In this compelling talk, Benjamin shows how America can reverse its polarization with dialogue — and action.
WHITOPIA: My Road Trip Through America’s Whitest Towns
As America becomes more and more multicultural, Rich noticed a phenomenon: Some communities were actually getting less diverse. So he got out a map, found the whitest towns in the USA -- and moved in. In this funny, honest, human talk, Rich shares what he learned as a black man in “Whitopia.” And then he offers practical lessons on what “Whitopia” can teach the audience about their own communities, particularly concerning fear, hope, and isolation, in all their forms.
“Disruption”: Where We Go from Here
The world is experiencing a moment of disruption — demographic, health and medical, political, economic, work-force, social, and technological. Rich’s talk reveals the role of disruption in un-nerving some Americans. Rich looks into the darker sides of disruption: layoffs, work-place reorganization, vigilantism, political extremism, and the rise of digital media’s “intensity machine”, including the alt-right. He denounces disruption as a platform for fear and bias. And then he inspires people and institutions with strategies to withstand — and thrive in — disruption, amidst all its forms.
The Color of Tomorrow: Success Now & The Future
A prediction that makes headlines across the United States is fast becoming reality: By 2042 white people will no longer be the American majority. Rich has travelled 27,000 miles and lived two years in America’s whitest communities. From this experience, he offers the audience a unique look into "demographobia" — the fear of changing demographics. The browning of America now reaches a critical inflection point, one which shapes our politics, society, and markets. What will it mean to be "American," when whites are no longer the numeric majority, nor even the "mainstream?" How can communities and businesses prosper in a truly pluralist age? How can the spirit of entrepreneurship spark a new generation of inclusive, savvy business leaders and hopeful citizens? An adventurer and storyteller, Rich shares a positive vision of how the audience can go out and change the world as America becomes browner and more female.
Get Over It: “Comfort Zones” & “Safe Spaces”
What is your comfort zone at work? In your community? How does that comfort zone inspire and cage you? With audience input, Rich peeks behind a person’s multiple comfort zones. He helps audiences to really understand their comfort zones — and inspires them to get beyond their “safe spaces” for better personal and collective gains, especially as our media and real-time worlds get more segregated and complex. He shares an original vision of shattering comfort zones in an era when America is re-segregating by income and race.
King & “The More Perfect Union”
A seismic, historic presidential election. Hundreds of thousands dead from a pandemic. Ongoing mass incarceration of young men. Legions taking the streets of Portland, New York City, Baltimore, and elsewhere to protest the deaths of young black men at the hands of urban police. Calculated legal assaults on the Voting Rights Act of 1965 and state legislative attempts to suppress the black vote. Recent years have festered more racial grieving than any other period since Dr. King was assassinated fifty years ago in 1968. Having reflected on MLK’s legacy for The New Yorker and on NPR, Rich takes the audience through the impressive gains and backward steps America has made toward King’s vision of a “a more beloved community.” He inspires the audience by looking toward decades of civil rights movement and Dr. King’s current relevance.
“Rich Benjamin’s visit was a huge hit. Benjamin gave a terrific talk. He has a knack for raising very sensitive issues in a way that gets beyond tired polarities but that doesn't muffle the key issues of justice and the common good. Plus, he's a great story-teller and he's got a great story to tell.”
- Santa Clara University (CA)
“Rich Benjamin gave a thought-provoking and compelling presentation of his odyssey through 'Whitopia.' Benjamin’s visit was one of the best-attended and highly regarded talks of the academic year.”
- Stanford University
“Rich Benjamin did a phenomenal job. I could not have imagined a better summation of our week. Participants said his talk was one of the highlights. One participant wrote me: ‘I am so thankful that Facing History introduced us to Rich Benjamin, his book, and his research. This was eye opening for me personally and also will become an important element of my teaching.’”
- Facing History and Ourselves
“Rich Benjamin offered a trenchant and compelling exploration of contemporary white flight. Benjamin facilitated a lively and meaningful discussion on the nuances of unconscious racism that continue to shape the American landscape. The audience responded with genuine and palpable appreciation.”
- Columbia University
“Dr. Benjamin’s speech was inspirational. He seamlessly tied his thought-provoking work to the everyday lives of our students, and reminded them to live courageously in the face of adversity. His encouraging and open remarks reinforced our students’ commitment to public service and affecting change.”

B.C. finance minister says ‘benefit companies’ would think beyond profits
AsianJournal
Victoria: The British Columbia government has created the option of so-called benefit companies that would measure their success through service to the community, not just profits.
Finance Minister Carole James said B.C. has introduced historic and collaborative legislation to become the first province in Canada allowing companies to create a corporate structure that includes giving back.
Businesses would commit to responsible and sustainable practices while promoting public benefits and serving the interests of stakeholders, she said on Tuesday.
A variety of causes could reap the benefits, including those that are charitable, educational, environmental and artistic.
James said benefit companies will help propel B.C.’s economy as the province works to rebuild from the impact of COVID-19.
A private member’s bill introduced in May 2018 by then Green party leader Andrew Weaver led to the legislation that requires businesses that want the designation to specify their public benefit goals in their articles of incorporation.
The legislation stems from the first private member’s bill from an Opposition party to be passed directly into law, said Weaver, who now sits as an independent member of the legislature.
Weaver said benefit companies present an attractive model to consumers, especially millennials, who are increasingly conscious of whether businesses are going beyond the bottom line.
“People make jokes about the avocado toast generation but there’s a very different value set associated with the younger set,’’ he said, adding consumers are willing to pay a bit more to buy the products and services of companies with social and environmental goals.
Weaver said the legislation is timely in the midst of a pandemic.

Victoria demonstrators add to weekend rallies in B.C. against racism
Source: www.timescolonist.com
Victoria: Several thousand people gathered in downtown Victoria Sunday to show their support for the Black Lives Matter movement in the wake of George Floyd’s death last month in Minneapolis.
One of the rally organizers says the importance of the battle against racism superceded concerns about mass gatherings during a pandemic.
Vanessa Simon says most people wore face masks and masks were handed out to those who didn’t have them, while demonstrators were urged to maintain physical distancing.
She acknowledges the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic but says racism is also a pandemic that has continued for centuries.
The peaceful rally, which began at 4 p.m. and continued for several hours, was one of a number held across British Columbia over the weekend.
A crowd of about 700 gathered in Prince George on Friday and Saturday, while hundreds attended events from Courtenay to Kelowna and Salmon Arm, and upwards of 5,000 rallied in Vancouver on Friday.
Simon says the Victoria protest was important because people need to understand that systemic racism happens in the city, just as it does across Canada and North America.
“The thing is, it’s more covert than overt. People aren’t dying in the streets, but people are dying behind closed doors,” she says.
Fellow rally organizer and member of the Canada women’s national rugby sevens team, Pamphinette Buisa, agrees that it is time to speak up.
“Enough’s enough,” she says.
“We can’t be OK with being complacent. We can’t be OK with what’s happening, because it’s not.” (CTV)

2018 SIG-DL Student Engagement Award Winner Announcement
Alessandra Seiter
The Special Interest Group-Digital Libraries (SIG-DL) is delighted to announce the winner of the SIG-DL 2018 Student Engagement Award: Alessandra Seiter.
Alessandra Seiter is a MLIS candidate at Simmons University School of Library and Information Science, concentrating in Cultural Heritage Informatics. Her LIS praxis is informed by an undergrad education in human geography and a robust background in political activism. Much of her research has focused on collective action and the online/offline spaces where it occurs. Alessandra is passionate about using technology to facilitate social change.
In her essay for the Student Engagement Award, Alessandra presented her idea to explore “how to best ensure technology’s use as an arbiter of human wellbeing for all—rather than as an aggravator of inequity,” based on “the conviction that organizing information from grassroots sources could serve as a means of community empowerment.”
As the recipient of the Student Engagement Award, Alessandra will be funded to attend the 2018 ASIS&T Annual Meeting in Vancouver.
The SIG-DL Student Engagement Award is intended to assist promising students in becoming active contributors within the ASIS&T community through involvement in SIG-DL. The award is granted annually. The 2018 application process was highly competitive and SIG-DL recognizes the outstanding candidates, including Alessandra, who applied for the award this year.

NEA Announces Theatre Grants Totaling $3.96 Million
Arts Midwest is biggest grantee, with 132 other arts organizations in 30 states and D.C. also receiving grants for theatre projects.

BUSINESS MAGIC
I Wrote My Way Into A New Life
I graduated high school with a 2.0 gpa, from a correctional education program called ACCESS. An acronym for a series of buzz words like Achieve! and Success! to mask the fact that ACCESS was a school you had to take the freeway to get to, located in some concrete business park, where you had a supervisor and half of your classmates were either pregnant or high. I was neither. I was there because my boyfriend told me I should be, but that's another story.
When the time came for me to graduate it was a swift and easy decision to enroll in the local community college across the street from where my mother worked, the school where she and my father met. Maybe this is because everyone in my family went to college, most of them starting their academic journey at the very campus I was attending, maybe because a majority of them are teachers, maybe because my best friend was doing it, or maybe, and this is the one that I find the most likely, though I think all contributed, because at that time I actively did the opposite of anything my family did or wanted and my best friend was just as much dancing with trouble as me, God whispered on a day I shut the blinds and slept, shaking with deep sadness for wanting so bad to never again be in my childhood bedroom: This is where you'll start to find what and who you love. This is where you begin.
At the time I would have never said I heard God, but something landed me in an online registration process and that something was definitely not entirely myself.
Myself hard a hard time eating a banana.
The first college classroom I sat in was in a building that smelled like a science fair, or a whiteboard, or something very cold. It was angular and hard. Stairs going up, up, up. 8am. English 100. Taught by young professor who had just graduated with her MFA from Notre Dame. She had recently gotten engaged after filming a documentary about playing soccer all over the world. (Why was she in Orange County?) She was short. She called me out every time I was late. She asked us to spend the first ten minutes of class writing each tiny detail of our morning. The peach tinted sheets crinkled as I moved and hit snooze to quiet the neon blinking clock. It was the first time anyone asked me to describe anything. She made us tell stories with a hook, arc, and cathartic ending, out loud in front of the entire class. And she had me write a letter to the person I was most angry with. I wrote it to the abusive boyfriend I had broken up with six months prior. I wrote about his tinted truck with rims colored like night. The time he slammed my head into the center consul. The proms he told me I couldn't attend. I wrote to him, a him I never had to send it to, and said no. Not anymore. This time with details. When I received my grade there was a little note attached: "This letter was not only beautifully written, but stuck with me long after I read it. Please know the best lives often come from those who have known horrible things. Please keep writing." So I did. And even though the same teacher, who I took for more than a few classes, would critique me saying, "Ana, you have a way with words but you must learn actual grammar," and, "Ana, this seems like you wrote it an hour," I kept going.
Eventually, slow, quick, seemingly all at once, I wrote my way into a new life.
I wrote of Magnolia's blooming on the lawns of UC Berkeley, watching as frisbees were thrown by barefoot students, floating, paused, bare knees leaping, caught by someone laughing and hollering.
I wrote of new young love, him taking me back to where he was from. Boise, Idaho. I wrote my only memory of that trip, the knowing that I would never ever ever ever want to live there.
I wrote heartbreak after heartbreak after heartbreak. A windowless room with no way out.
I wrote of Thailand beaches, and South American mountain ranges, and hikes in national parks where I'd be bitten by bugs and burned by the sun.
I wrote of affairs with engaged teaching assistants and the poetry we'd analyze together during office hours. The marks we'd make on The Waste Land. I wrote of the night he took me to a gay club in the city, ecstasy dabbed in our lips, where we danced and danced, sweaty and alive. I wrote wondering if we both needed one another to remind us that we're more than just breathing.
I wrote of farms and dinner parties during summer nights under the full moon. Dewy skin to dewy skin.
I sometimes wrote more angry letters, more sad letters, more actual letters (email replies), please don't ever contact me again.
I wrote my way through therapy sessions, and Ayahuasca ceremonies, and afternoons in the woods giggling, seeing spirals with friends.
I wrote myself to festivals and Burning Man and Kauai breath work circles.
I wrote through deaths. My close friend falling off a roof. My grandmother's voice when she said goodbye, her pancreas breaking. The two weeks my catholic family spent together in her home, mourning.
I wrote through restaurant jobs and assistant positions and days and days wondering if I'd ever make money.
I wrote myself to a business, to pulling up my boots and getting what needed to be done, done.
I wrote of falling in love a final time. Like finally landing home. I wrote of the tears that would stream when I realized that all of it was for this.
I wrote and I wrote and I wrote.
Sometimes I stopped writing. Only to become tired and sick and not sure why. When I stopped writing is when I'd spend thousands of dollars for some to tell me what I needed.
Eventually finding my way to the page again. To feel life.
When I wrote I knew for myself.
Remembering that the way I live it is through words.
That the way I make new is to write it.

2020 Ford Fusion in Haverhill
Continuing its second generation, the '20 Fusion may be the last of its kind, since Ford is planning to primarily focus on making trucks and SUVs (as well as the iconic Mustang) in the future. If it does end up being the Fusion's final year of production, then it is going out with a bang. That's because this model year brings outstanding standard advanced safety features, technology, and comfort. Overall, it's a great value for those looking for an affordable midsized sedan with the best of today's features.
View New Fusion Inventory
The '20 Fusion is available in five trim levels: S, SE, SEL, and Titanium. The base trim S comes standard with 60/40-split folding rear seats, Bluetooth wireless technology, a 4.2-inch display screen, a USB port, a four-speaker audio system, Sync audio and phone commands, and a suite of driver-assist features known as Co-Pilot360. The S also offers the upgraded version, Co-Pilot 360 Assist, as an option; it includes a larger 8-inch touchscreen display with navigation, dual-zone automatic climate control, Ford Sync 3 voice controls, an additional USB port, adaptive cruise control, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto.
The SE trim comes standard with the 8-inch touchscreen display, an additional USB port, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto. It also adds power-adjustable front seats, a six-speaker sound system, and satellite radio. In addition to the Co-Pilot 360 Assist system, the SE has an available All-Wheel-Drive package, which includes AWD, heated front seats, and heated side mirrors; it also gets upgraded to a turbocharged 2.0-liter engine. The Fusion SEL steps it up by adding keyless ignition and entry, LED headlights, heated front seats, driver-seat memory functions, and an 11-speaker premium audio system. At the top, the Titanium trim adds a sunroof, heated and ventilated sport front seats, standard Co-Pilot360 Assist technology, and an upgraded 12-speaker Sony premium audio system.
Mechanical Features and Fuel Economy
The Fusion offers three different engines for the new model year, after discontinuing the V6 option of the prior year. The base powertrain is a 173 horsepower 2.5-liter naturally aspirated four-cylinder with a six-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive. Upgrading to the SE trim will get you a turbocharged 1.5-liter engine that puts out 181 horsepower and 185 lb.-ft. of torque. The top-of-the-line turbocharged 2.0-liter engine comes standard on the Titanium trim but is available as an upgrade on the SE and SEL. This engine delivers an attention-getting 240 horsepower and 270 lb.-ft. of torque.
The Fusion achieves fine fuel economy, as the 1.5-liter engine gets an EPA-rated 23 mpg city and 34 mpg highway. The 2.5-liter engine gets 21 mpg city and 31 mpg highway, while the turbocharged 2.0-liter engine gets 20 mpg city and 29 mpg highway.
The 2020 Focus is an exceptionally safe vehicle, as reflected by its 5-Star Overall Safety Rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). Even the base model comes standard with Co-Pilot 360, which includes blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert, forward collision mitigation, lane keep assist, automatic high beams, and a rear-view camera. The Fusion also offers FordPass Connect, which allows you to start, stop, lock, and unlock your vehicle remotely from your smartphone.

For Many, Insiders Pose the Biggest Threat to Industrial Security
By Michael Rothschild, Indegy IT security has been a concern for the better part of three decades. OT security, however, is relatively new simply because operational environments were never connected to the outside world and vulnerable to threats as they are today.
By Michael Rothschild, Director of Marketing, Indegy
It was only a matter of time before the security threats faced by the Information Technology (IT) community would affect Operational Technology (OT) environments. Today, OT executives are up against the same risks that keeps corporate senior executives up at night. IT security has been a concern for the better part of three decades. OT security, however, is relatively new simply because operational environments were never connected to the outside world and vulnerable to threats as they are today. The blurring of lines between IT and OT has de-facto put industrial organizations in the cross hairs for security incidents, but not from where you think. The newest form of danger comes from within.
While there’s been much talk about cyber threats to industrial environments in the news, insider threats, which have long been a concern in the IT security community pose an equal risk to OT networks. In fact, a recent study performed by Indegy Labs found that 86% of those polled rated insiders as the biggest security threat to their organizations. It’s important to note that the definition of insiders goes beyond just employees and includes anyone with privileged access to resources, such as consultants, contractors, outsourced agents, suppliers and more.
In addition, insider threats can be based on various motivations and circumstances, including:
Malicious Intent – Typically a disgruntled employee or insider who is paid to exfiltrate information and/or cause damage to the organization.
Human Error - This occurs when is an employee unintentionally causes damage and/or downtime by making incorrect changes to industrial processes/equipment, or leaks confidential company information..
Account Compromise – This is similar to the human error scenario, where an employee unintentionally a create a security incident. Typically, outsider through social engineering tricks an employee into divulging confidential information that is used to carry out an attack. Social engineering techniques phishing emails, a “call from IT” requesting the user’s ID and password, etc.
To protect OT environments from insider threats, industrial organizations should look no further than the best practices developed over the years by the IT community. Here are the top three:
Perform a risk assessment to identify and address vulnerabilities such as over privileged accounts, insiders with access to resources they don’t need to do their jobs, orphaned accounts belonging to terminates employees, contractors, etc. The findings will provide a ranked inventory of where threats lie and a checklist for mitigating them.
Know and monitor attack vectors. There are two primary vectors for insider attacks: using the network and targeting devices directly via serial ports. The latter occurs when a user plugs a device into anindustrial controller to distribute malware, upload new code, etc. Serial attacks can quickly propagate and evade network based passive detection mechanisms. Monitoring both network activity anddevice integrity are required to detect these two types of threats.
Unify IT and OT security. Since both environments are often interconnected, an attack that originateson the IT network can move laterally to the OT environment. This is a commonly used hacking technique that involves performing reconnaissance to identify and exploit vulnerabilities or using social engineering to compromise the network and move laterally once inside perimeter defenses. Establishing visibility across both IT and OT networks by integrating security tools and the data they generate can help detect lateral attack activity.
Although the insider threat does not get as much media coverage as more high profile cyber attacks, it is a top concern among industrial facilities operators. Implementing IT best practices for insider threat prevention in OT environments, and unifying controls and visibility across both infrastructures, represents the best recipe for protection.

Days One and Two of the Autoweek America Adventure powered by SRT
By Autoweek
Even though this is just the second Autoweek America Adventure, we are building a reputation. Like all reputations, they can be good or bad. Depends on your point of view.
Generally, ours is outstanding. This does not come lightly or arbitrarily. That we were able to attract 30 teams the first year, and the same number this year, is testament that the event is entertaining, exciting, filled with car-guy types and—yes—has your basic kick-ass prize.
The premise of the Autoweek America Adventure is simple. Think of a great cross-country time-speed-distance rally coupled with riddles that demand solving and earn teams points, physical challenges that also earn teams points, and a chance to push cars to their limits in controlled environments . . . to earn points. And you get to do this with car-obsessed people just like you for six days, enjoy top-notch accommodations, and bench race over an adult beverage or two.
Then there is that prize. This year, the winner of the Autoweek America Adventure gets a snazzy, slick and quick black-on-black Chrysler 300 SRT whose attitude is all business and whose Monroney hovers north of $50,000. Not a bad prize.
We were talking about that with Graham Rahal who is now a grizzled veteran of these wars. He and his stepfather, Chris Berry, have joined for a second year in a row. It's partially because he's a competitor and partially because money raised goes to the Graham Rahal Foundation that benefits children.
So this year we set off from Colorado Springs, but not before a jaunt up to Pikes Peak (where 2/3rds of last year's winning team The Flying Bandini Brothers got engaged!), and then off to an autocross-slalom at Pikes Peak International Raceway. A local charity benefitted from us being here, as one of the challenges was to gather up enough household supplies to fill a Jeep SRT8; all the goods were then donated to the local Ronald McDonald house. One competitor went so far as to buy two weeks' worth of room nights to give to some deserving family.
Yesterday was a long one—including 11 hours in a car, time at a drag strip, more time at actor Dennis Weaver's home, with Telluride as our destination. Incredible country. Incredible time. And the good news is that more awaits today!
Keep up with all the Autoweek America Adventure news and updates at theamericaadventure.com and at autoweek.com/section/americaadventure.

Salt River Project, Arizona Public Service Co. and other gas and electric companies gave their annual summer preparedness update following the two high-profile grid disruptions. Both APS and SRP officials said they predict the peak demand on their utility grid to be higher than last summer.
On April 25 at about 6 p.m., SRP had a major problem at its Gila River Generating Station gas-fired power plant west of Phoenix. Such an outage would not normally cause a problem as a utility would simply turn on the next available power plant.
But Steve Cobb, SRP director of transmission and generation operations, said SRP didn't have another power plant to turn on.
"We had a lot of generating units offline for maintenance," Cobb said.
Utilities must balance the amount of power they are generating at their power plants with the demand from their customers, and if they ever get out of balance, they have 15 minutes to rebalance before they face fines from federal regulators.
To bring the grid back into balance, SRP decided to cut power to about 51,000 customers, putting them in a blackout for about 40 minutes.
While blackouts caused by storms or car accidents are common, forced blackouts such as Thursday's from SRP are not.
'The worst thing that can happen to you'
SRP had to take a similar action on a cold February morning in 2011 when multiple utilities in the Southwest had problems, putting millions of customers into a blackout and prompting a federal investigation.
"From an operator's perspective, that is like the worst thing that can happen to you because we understand what is happening to customers out there," Cobb said of Thursday's action.
Corporation Commissioner Sandra Kennedy said her office got calls from customers who claimed their outage lasted longer than 40 minutes.
Cobb said SRP shut off many circuits, and to restore power to customers, workers had to travel to neighborhoods and manually reset the circuits, so some customers could have experienced longer outages. He said some customers also might have needed to reset their home breakers after the disturbance.
The SRP issue followed an explosion April 19 at a large battery used by APS to balance a significant number of residential solar installations in the far West Valley.
The explosion sent eight firefighters and one police officer to the hospital, two who were injured bad enough to be admitted, though officials said last week they are expected to recover from their injuries.
APS last week said an investigation team of about 30 people was looking into the cause.
The explosion damaged the battery but did not result in any customers losing power.
APS also has shut down two other large batteries in Arizona until the investigation is complete.
SRP: Another battery explosion unlikely
SRP has two batteries operating in Arizona, one from the same vendor as the APS battery that exploded, AES Energy Storage, which is now known as Fluence.
An SRP official said Tuesday their batteries continue to operate following the accident.
"We have sent a response team to make sure first responders know how to respond (in a fire)," said Robert Olsen, SRP director supply trading and fuels. "There is also a different fire suppression system at this (Fluence battery site), which we think would prevent the type of incident that occurred at APS."
APS officials have said they don't know what caused the explosion at their battery and that it is unclear whether it had anything to do with the fire-suppression system.
"It is speculative and premature to suggest any specific component was the cause, or whether any similarities or differences between energy storage systems are relevant to the issue," APS said in a statement following the meeting.
"The investigation will help us learn all we can from what happened so we can apply those lessons to how we move ahead. We intend to share what we can, especially to the extent the technical and safety findings are helpful to the industry and response agencies."
Kennedy asked Olsen if an explosion could harm people nearby. Olsen said SRP's Fluence battery is located next to an electrical substation and that an explosion would not likely harm the nearest business, about 1,000 feet away.

Garden Route, South Africa
Map of Garden Route
Where the Karoo’s quartzite mountain range on the one side and the pristine white beaches of the Indian Ocean on the other the official Garden Route stretches along South Africa’s south eastern coastline from Mossel Bay to Storms River just east of Plettenberg Bay, unofficially from Cape Town to Port Elizabeth. The beaches, forests and lakes of this area offer an amazing diversity of landscapes and wild flowers.
The Garden Route - The Details
There are a number of ways to do the Garden Route, but this really depends on how much driving you want to do. These are the two ways we recommend doing it.
The first way and what we recommend to most of our clients is to fly from Cape Town to George (the Garden Route’s main city). From George the distance to Port Elizabeth is just over 300km and would take about 4 hours, so more of a Garden wander. The best way to do this version of the Garden Route would be to spend one or two nights in Knysna and then the same in Plettenberg Bay, and from there drive to Port Elizabeth from where you would fly up to your safari destination (Phinda or Kwandwe are very accessible from here). This Knysna and Plettenberg bay are at the heart of the Garden Route and give you the best access to the many activities on offer.
Alternatively, for those who don’t mind an extra bit of driving, you could drive the whole way from Cape Town to Port Elizabeth, the distance is just under 800km and would (if doing it straight, which of course you wouldn’t) take about 10 hours. The way to do this would be, from Cape Town drive to Hermanus (particularly between June and October for whale watching), spend one or two nights in Hermanus and then do the long five hour drive to Knysna and continue the Garden Route as per above.
Hermanus:
Hermanus is widely recognised as the whale watching capital of the world. Between June and October all five major species of whale migrate around the Cape. The whole bay from Hermanus to Gansbaai is stunning, but in our opinion one of the best places to watch the whales from is De Kelders.
Knysna:
Knysna is a town which has been made famous by its July Oyster festival and its impressive Knysna heads, the treacherous entry to Knysna lagoon where many an ancient sailing vessel met its doom. From here you can find a rich diversity of flora and fauna by exploring the Featherbed Nature Reserve.
Plettenberg Bay:
To the east of Knysna Plettenberg Bay is probably the last completely worthwhile stop on the Garden Route. It’s a beautiful beach town, great as a base for a number of activities including Elephant and Monkey sanctuaries and beach activities. However the town is now a bit build-up and modernised, for a quieter/higher-end town the neighbouring Nature’s Valley is the better bet.
There are a whole host of activities that you can do from Plettenberg Bay, and these are particularly ideal for kids.
Tsitsikamma:
The Tsitsikamma National Park forms part of the greater Garden Route National Park and is home to the famous tree-top canopy tour. This is a great day trip to do from Plettenberg Bay.

Blockchain shaping Africa’s future
By Afritech Media
An interview with John Kamara, Director for Global Gaming Africa, on how Africa has embraced Blockchain technology, by Katy Micallef
What kind of solutions can blockchain technology offer the continent? Is Africa on the road to becoming a blockchain hub?
Africa is rising and technology is at the forefront of our growth as a continent. We have seen the explosion of the mobile space in the continent and how it has allowed a number of services and solutions to become easier. Blockchain is about to help solve a number of issues we are currently facing in the public and private sector. Pockets of blockchain innovation are fast springing up in innovation hubs across Africa, as the public and private sector alike seek effective new systems of record with trust embedded.
With Kenya, Nigeria, Uganda and South Africa among the countries taking the lead in blockchain experimentation, the financial sector looks set to be the continent’s earliest big adopter. However, development and trials are also underway to apply blockchain technology to virtually every industry sector – from health and social development to retail and agriculture. Governments are exploring ways of using blockchain to aid corruption across multiple verticals and also to push value to service sectors.
One company planning to maximize blockchain’s potential in Africa is Ecobank, a pan-African banking conglomerate with operations in 36 African countries. Ecobank’s Fintech Challenge actively seeks out fintech innovations harnessing Blockchain, artificial intelligence, machine learning and other next-generation technologies.
Other countries like Kenya and Nigeria have either setup a blockchain committee or advisory programs to explore the opportunity. Some of the happenings in the private sector around blockchain education are also key to use case of the technology, i.e IBM research on blockchain and movement of trade in Africa. ITEX, a payment solution company servicing multiple POS solutions and software for banks across Africa is exploring blockchain for security and trust.
From my perspective Africa is looking at blockchain as a solution to solve some of the multiple problems we have, as we pioneer digital payment technologies in Africa as well.
As we move into the African future in technology blockchain represents a perfect decentralized and incorruptible ‘truth engine’ that cannot be hacked growth for payment, SME trade and a number of identity management and transactional problems we have in Africa.
Nairobi and South Africa have implemented crypto-friendly laws and Kenya’s president Uhuru Kenyatta has launched a blockchain and artificial intelligence task force. Do you think other African countries will follow suit?
Yes, more countries will follow and create other types of structures that will work for their economy based on their market need.
Some momentum has been gathered around the use of blockchain in Africa so far and throughout 2018. But what could be unusual is the role that governments and public sector organisations could play in raising its profile further. Typically, the development and application of emerging technologies is championed by the private sector before the public sector tends to take notice. Given that the potential use cases for blockchain align so closely with many public services, this is a technology where the public sector cannot afford to be sat in the passenger seat.
For example the Blockchain Association of Uganda was established earlier this year to create a credible vehicle for driving standards for blockchain across industries in Uganda. The membership organisation also aims to make blockchain-related resources available to government and public-sector consumers.
We also see the evolution of the Blockchain centre for excellence positioned to provide education and train young developers on blockchain and how to build solutions that can solve African problems.
Do you foresee any difficulties with the implementation of blockchain systems? There are some concerns about the risk of crypto asset crime, including tax evasion and money laundering.
Bitcoin’s wild skyrocket last year may well have turned the world’s interest on to cryptocurrencies, but in Africa we “still have a long way to go” before they will be considered legal tender, and as such are not of major interest. Governments are still struggling with how to manage crypto space and this is affecting the conversation around blockchain. Any decision to buy into a new cryptocurrency would be guided by the same criteria as other investment decisions, with a focus on avoiding the “cloud” created by the crypto buzz.
African Cryptocurrency exchanges – allowing people to trade various digital currencies against African currencies – may present a more valuable prospect in the short term, but overall, he leans away from the crypto proposition in favour of blockchain solutions. These, he says, will be far more attractive investment opportunities: It will not be as straight forward as it may sound.
A lot of African banks and government run when they hear the word crypto because of the effect they feel it will have on the economy and also loss of control. Issues around tax evasion are real and have to be discussed with clarity for us to find a way forward.
What potential does this have to revolutionize the lives of the unbanked, does it represent an opportunity to democratize the economy?
On the private sector side it is a huge opportunity for the fintech and private sector space. Also, the drive for financial inclusion is one that bodes well for the crypto space in Africa. We can already see a number of exchanges setting up in Africa to take advantage of this growing opportunity.
Just as Africa skipped the early fixed-line telecommunication phases of the 20th century and moved straight on to mobile phone usage, could new blockchain tech provide it with a similar opportunity to bypass inefficient systems and leap into the future?
Yes, 1000% – blockchain is going to revolutionize the way we look at tech and solutions going forward in Africa. And blockchain on mobile is the next frontier.
There is certainly a lot of buzz around blockchain tech and its potential to bring about change in Africa. In your opinion, is this sense of optimism realistic or are we jumping the gun a bit?
It is optimistic but needs guidance and clarity. It’s also a huge educational opportunity for various private sector companies to create a whole new revenue and income stream. Africa is the land of milk and honey at the moment and blockchain is another form of milk that is going to become huge. Some interesting things happening in blockchain in Africa:
ITEX, one of the top payment solutions in Africa and specifically, Nigeria (over 14 years old), has exposure in over 23 countries throughout Africa and is currently working on an integrated Pan-African settlement platform on the blockchain.
Paxful has announced plans to establish a blockchain incubator hub in Lagos, Nigeria, as well as to run Blockchain and cryptocurrency events in Nigeria, Ghana and Cameroon.
AID:Tech and PharmAccess are harnessing AID:Tech’s blockchain platform to collect and verify digital health data to make antenatal care more effective in Tanzania.
Kenyan real estate firm Land Layby Group plans to use blockchain to store land registry records, eliminating the existing real estate challenges of fraud, double ownership and false documents.
Kenyan startup ‘Nurse in Hand’, has signed a MoU with Apla Tech Company to build a blockchain-based accident and emergency response platform.
Blockchain start-up TariLabs has launched in Johannesburg, South Africa, with the aim of building the open source Tari blockchain protocol. The protocol is being constructed as a platform for the management, trade and use of digital assets, and will be merge-mined with the Monero blockchain.
The South African Reserve Bank (SARB) ran the Project Khokha proof of concept trialling a distributed ledger technology-based wholesale payment system in a ‘real world’ environment. It reported that the typical daily volume of the payments system could be processed in less than two hours with full confidentiality of transactions and settlement.
Jamborow, the Pan African B2B platform for financial inclusion in Africa is also building a blockchain solution to help secure data, transactional information and identity management for her clients in Africa.
These developments prove that the private sector and governments are taking blockchain seriously in the continent. The proof is in the drive of our private companies to explore and deploy funds into blockchain research as well as projects

Sharp consistency estimates for a pressure-Poisson problem with Stokes boundary value problems
Kazunori Matsui
Division of Mathematical and Physical Sciences, Graduate School of Natural Science and Technology, Kanazawa University, Kanazawa 920-1192, Japan
Received December 2018 Revised January 2020 Published June 2020
We consider a boundary value problem for the stationary Stokes problem and the corresponding pressure-Poisson equation. We propose a new formulation for the pressure-Poisson problem with an appropriate additional boundary condition. We establish error estimates between solutions to the Stokes problem and the pressure-Poisson problem in terms of the additional boundary condition. As boundary conditions for the Stokes problem, we use a traction boundary condition and a pressure boundary condition introduced in C. Conca et al (1994).
Keywords: Stokes problem, pressure-Poisson equation.

The Latest: Agency promises ‘fair-minded’ probe on Big Tech

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Latest on U.S. regulation of technology companies (all times local):
The Justice Department says its new review of Big Tech’s market power will delve into competition “in an objective and fair-minded manner.”
The agency says it wants to ensure that Americans have access to free markets and that companies compete on merits. The Justice Department says it will take into account the “widespread concerns” about social media, search engines and online retail services expressed by consumers, businesses and entrepreneurs. Its antitrust division is seeking information from the public, including those in the tech industry.
In a statement Tuesday, top antitrust official Makan Delrahim worries that without meaningful competition, “digital platforms may act in ways that are not responsive to consumer demands.”
The focus of the investigation closely mirrors a bipartisan probe of Big Tech undertaken by the House Judiciary subcommittee on antitrust. Its chairman, Democrat David Cicilline of Rhode Island, has sharply criticized the conduct of Silicon Valley giants and said legislative or regulatory changes may be needed. He has called breaking up the companies a last resort.
The Justice Department didn’t name any companies, but the targets are most likely Apple, Amazon, Google and Facebook. All four were the subject of congressional hearings last week.
A longtime digital advertising executive and antitrust expert says American consumers and news publishers need competitive tech markets.
Dina Srinivasan spoke Tuesday after the Department of Justice announced a broad antitrust investigation into big tech companies. She says increased competition could help solve wide-ranging privacy concerns in tech.
But Blair Levin, a former leading Federal Communications Commission staffer, says it’s not clear that antitrust regulations would solve all, or even any, of the other concerns.
Tech companies are facing scrutiny that ranges widely from privacy concerns to protection of children to political interference. Levin says regulators need to carefully line up which institutions can address which issues — and antitrust likely won’t take care of all of them.
One Wall Street analyst believes the Justice Department’s announced review of technology companies will lead to business model tweaks and fines rather than broader structural changes such as breaking up the companies.
Dan Ives of Wedbush Securities says any resulting probe would likely take many years, and that the government would ultimately fail to break up the companies without changes to antitrust laws. He says that’s unlikely.
The Justice Department says it is opening an investigation into whether big online companies have hurt competition or innovation.
Shares of Facebook, Amazon and Apple are down slightly in after-hours trading, while Google’s stock is unchanged. All four had closed up for the day.
A Harvard professor who worked in the Obama administration says one challenge with the Justice Department’s announced probe of big tech companies is to avoid politicizing it.
Jason Furman, who was chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers under President Barack Obama, says the antitrust scrutiny on the companies is long overdue. He just hopes it’s “fast and effective enough that it can actually improve the functioning of the market.”
As for whether any outcome could be expected before next year’s presidential elections, Furman says these cases take a long time to investigate, let alone litigate.
The probe announced Tuesday will include an examination into whether powerful companies such as Apple, Facebook, Google and Amazon have been stifling innovation and competition.
An antitrust expert believes a Justice Department investigation into whether major technology companies are abusing their market power may prompt regulators to interpret the law in new ways.
University of Pennsylvania law professor Herbert Hovenkamp says one possible way the companies have been doing that is by collectively buying hundreds of startups in recent years to devour their technology and prevent them from growing into formidable rivals.
Traditionally, antitrust regulators have only sought to block acquisitions involving two big companies. But Hovenkamp says U.S. antitrust law is broad enough for regulators to consider the potential damage wrought by relatively small deals too.
Major tech companies facing congressional antitrust scrutiny have no comment on the Justice Department’s just announced probe.
The department says it is opening sweeping antitrust investigation of Big Tech and whether the online platforms have hurt competition, suppressed innovation or otherwise harmed consumers. It did not name any specific companies in its announcement.
Amazon had no comment. Facebook also did not have an immediate comment.
Google directed requests for comments to the testimony its director of economic policy, Adam Cohen, made to the House Judiciary Committee last week. Cohen reiterated the company’s benefits to consumers.
Apple referred to comments from CEO Tim Cook, who told CBS last month he doesn’t think “anybody reasonable” would call Apple a monopoly.
The U.S. Justice Department says it is opening a sweeping antitrust investigation of big technology companies and whether their online platforms have hurt competition, suppressed innovation or otherwise harmed consumers.
It comes as a growing number of lawmakers have called for stricter regulation or even breaking up of the big tech companies, which have come under intense scrutiny following a series of scandals that compromised users’ privacy. President Donald Trump also has relentlessly criticized the big tech companies by name in recent months.
The Washington Post is reporting that the Federal Trade Commission will allege that Facebook misled users about its privacy practices as part of an expected settlement.
The federal business watchdog will reportedly find that Facebook deceived users about how it handled phone numbers it asked for as part of a security feature and provided insufficient information about how to turn off a facial recognition tool for photos.
Advertisers were reportedly able to target users who provided their phone number as part of a two-factor authentication security feature.
The FTC didn’t respond immediately to a request for comment. Facebook had no comment.
The complaints will reportedly be detailed in a settlement on Wednesday. Facebook won’t be required to admit guilt but will have to submit to federal oversight, the newspaper reported.

Music City Bowl between Iowa and Missouri canceled
Posted: Dec 27, 2020 / 03:35 PM CST / Updated: Dec 27, 2020 / 06:00 PM CST

The Music City Bowl between Missouri and Iowa was canceled Sunday because COVID-19 issues left the Tigers unable to play.
The game scheduled for Wednesday in Nashville, Tennessee, is the second bowl called off since the postseason lineup was set on Dec. 20, joining the Gasparilla Bowl. Overall, 18 bowl games scheduled to be played this season have been canceled.
Missouri athletic director Jim Sterk said the team has had a “significant increase in positive COVID-19 tests among our student-athletes, coaches and staff” since the end of the regular season.
Missouri is the third Southeastern Conference team that has had to pull out of its bowl game, joining Tennessee and South Carolina. Army was able to replace Tennessee in the Liberty Bowl against West Virginia to salvage that game. South Carolina’s COVID-19 issues left UAB without an opponent in the Gasparilla Bowl.
Iowa was left in the same situation, with no short-notice replacement available.
“We are extremely disappointed to have our season end today,” Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz said. “This is a remarkable group of players and men, and it has been an honor to coach them.”
Ferentz added that the Hawkeyes “have overcome several challenges together during a season like no other.” The coach himself tested positive for COVID-19 earlier this month and the program was rocked during the summer by allegations from former players of systemic racism.
The pandemic continues to disrupt other college sports. Villanova announced Sunday that coach Jay Wright has tested positive for COVID-19 and the fifth-ranked Wildcats have paused basketball activities, including Saturday’s game against Xavier. Syracuse also paused all women’s basketball-related activities and contact tracing is underway after a positive COVID-19 test for the 22nd-ranked Orange.
The Music City Bowl seemed to be in danger last week because Iowa paused football activities due to COVID-19 cases, but the Hawkeyes resumed practice this weekend.
Iowa (6-2) got all eight of its scheduled regular-season games in before having first its championship weekend Big Ten matchup against Michigan canceled and now its bowl, too.
Missouri coach Eli Drinkwitz wraps up his first season with a two-game skid and a 5-5 record.
“I am extremely proud of the fight and resiliency that our players have shown throughout this challenging season,” he said. “This is the eighth time in 11 games we’ve been faced with a schedule adjustment, but we’ve been able to fight through and finish while competing at a very high level throughout the season, which I believe shows the true character of our team.”

Troye Sivan Now Has a Wax Figure at Madame Tussauds
Tim Ashton
Troye Sivan has won awards for his music, played a young Wolverine on the big screen, amassed millions of fans on social media and enjoyed Top 5 hits in the U.S.
Now the Aussie pop artist has one of the greatest prizes of them all: his very own wax figure at Madame Tussauds.
The singer, actor and LGBTIQA+ activist reportedly spent hours working with the famed waxworks’ creative team and posed for numerous photos to develop the model, which stands at 1.73m (5'8").
Artists Mentioned
Troye Sivan & Kacey Musgraves Are On the Run in New Video for 'Easy' Remix With Mark Ronson
The final result is a doppelganger, sporting a donated white singlet, cuffed black shirt and trousers worn in Sivan's "My, My, My" music video, and complemented with chestnut brown hair, a silver nose ring, black boots, a gold Cartier-style ring and an engraved silver signet ring.
Sivan’s first and only wax model was debuted to the public in Sydney soon after the release Friday (Nov. 11) of his new single "Easy," with Kasey Musgraves featuring Mark Ronson.
Based on early feedback, the hard work paid off. “I am absolutely blown away by my wax figure at Madame Tussauds Sydney,” Sivan says. “I never thought this would happen, ever. We spent ages holding up little samples of eye colors to my eyes to make sure they were just the right color.”
Forty Sivan fans were among guests for the big reveal at Madame Tussauds Sydney’s new music zone, dubbed Sydney Live.

Argus argues that the shares deserve more attention.\nAnalyst Jim Kelleher reiterated a Buy rating on Broadcom (ticker: AVGO) on Tuesday, while adding $100 to his price target, taking it to $350 from $250.\nKelleher said there was plenty to like about the company’s fiscal second quarter. The top line came in ahead of expectations, and the company was able to notch double-digit growth in its infrastructure software division, helping to offset a small decline in semiconductors, he said.\nIndeed, while many other companies’ sales took a hit from the Covid-19 crisis, Broadcom’s year-over-year revenues expanded, helped by acquisitions.\n“We believe that Broadcom is well positioned in key markets, which should drive revenue growth and margin expansion in the coming quarters and years,” he said. “The data traffic trends accelerated by work and learn from home, virtual social interactions and video and game streaming during the pandemic are unlikely to recede in the near term, which should benefit Broadcom’s data center and storage business.”\nThere are positive factors beyond the stay-at-home focus. While Apple (AAPL) hasn’t said when it will begin to sell a 5G iPhone, Kelleher expects the eventual launch to “drive a major smartphone upgrade cycle over the next several years.”\nHe also noted that the shares—up less than 1% this year—trade at a discount to peers even though Broadcom has a robust base of recurring revenue, built on multiyear contracts. “The company’s strong cash flow generation and financial strength represent a foundation in uncertain times,” Kelleher said.\nBroadcom’s small year-to-date gains belie the huge rally the shares have seen since the U.S. ground to a halt this spring. The shares have nearly doubled since their March 18 lows.\nThe run-up makes sense, given that the company’s specialties—chips and security software—look well positioned to benefit from the stay-at-home environment. Yet the modest lift the stock got after the earnings news speaks to how high expectations have gotten for Broadcom and other recent winners.\nStill, Broadcom’s valuation remains low, making it less vulnerable to a sharp decline than other beneficiaries of Covid-19. Broadcom was roughly flat at $317.34 in midday trading, while the S&P 500 was down by about 0.8%.\nBroadcom stock got a small boost when it recently reported earnings that showed “limited impact” from the coronavirus pandemic."

Domonic Brown optioned to Triple-A

Breaking News, Fantasy, Headlines, Major League Baseball, National League, National League East, Philadelphia Phillies
The Phillies announced Tuesday that Domonic Brown has been optioned to Triple-A Lehigh Valley after he was rehabbing down there to start the year. He is making $2.6 million this year in his first year of arbitration.
He struggled in Lehigh Valley, but told reporters that he would be called up back up from his rehab assignment to Philadelphia on Wednesday, but manager Ryne Sandberg denied it.
“We haven’t had official conversations about him, but from what I’ve seen I don’t know if he’s ready for major-league pitching or to come up and give us a punch, the way things have gone for him there,” Sandberg said to Jim Salisbury of CSN late Monday afternoon.
Brown, 27, played horrifically last year slashing .235/.285/.349 with 10 home runs, 75 wRC+, and -1.7 fWAR in 512 plate appearances. That was coming off his career year hitting 27 home runs and posting a 123 wRC+ in 540 plate appearances. We’ll see if he find his swing in Lehigh Valley, but for now he’s just another player with over 1,500 plate appearances under his belt.
The Phillies are 8-12 and are 7 games back in the National League East. They take on the Cardinals tonight with Severino Gonzalez and Michael Wacha starting. Gonzalez, 22, is making his major league debut.

All BCGEU Members at Protrans BC Operations Ltd - Station Attendant - BCGEU
Last year, the employer reintroduced the Station Attendant position as a regular-full time position. The employer asserted that the appropriate rate of pay for this position would be 85% of what a Canada Line attendant earned. The union grieved this, asserting that this was an inappropriate rate of pay for these positions. The matter was subsequently set down for arbitration.
As a result of negotiations in the resolution of the grievance, the employer has agreed to an immediate 5% pay increase for those in the Station Attendant position. The employer has further agreed to never direct Station Attendants to hostle trains. This represents a significant increase in pay for the Station Attendants, while also protecting both the wages and job security of Canada Line attendants.

'Hadestown' at the Tony Awards: A day in the life of Vermont winner Michael Chorney
NEW YORK - On Sunday, June 9, the day of the Tony Awards, I spent time with Michael Chorney to get a glimpse into the madness that is the biggest day of the year in the world of Broadway.
Chorney earned the honor for Best Orchestrations for his work on “Hadestown” with Todd Sickafoose. "Hadestown," a creation of Vermont native Anais Mitchell, is also up for the night's top prize, Best Musical.
Follow along with Chorney's busy and happy day below. (Read from the top down to get the latest updates; read from the bottom up to get a sense of how the day unfolded.)
Wow - "Hadestown" wins Best Musical. Amazing. This has to be one of the most-improbable Tony wins ever, from small-town Vermont to the toast of Broadway. Producer Mara Isaacs gives the speech: "If 'Hadestown' stands for anything, it is that change is possible." She mentions its origins in Vermont. Anais Mitchell stands on stage among the huge crowd of "Hadestown" cast and crew, her head bowed in thought. She has poured 13 years of her life into this musical and now has reached the pinnacle of the theater world.
CBS has been showing pre-broadcast speeches for award winners, and just aired a clip of Lincoln musician Michael Chorney accepting the Best Orchestrations award for "Hadestown." "I want to thank my friends and family in Vermont, the birthplace of 'Hadestown,'" Chorney said.
Anais Mitchell wins a Tony Award for Best Original Score! She joins Michael Chorney as Vermonters winning tonight. She thanks Chorney and Ben t. Matchstick for their work on "Hadestown" in its early days (2006 and 2007) in Vermont. She gets teary thanking husband Noah Hahn and their 5-year-old daughter, Ramona. "Nobody does it alone," she says, choking up. Then she walks off the stage with presenters Vanessa Carlton and David Byrne (!)
I spot Vermont musicians Michael Chorney (ahem - that's now Tony Award-winning Michael Chorney) and Robinson Morse on stage on the broadcast right now on CBS.
"Hadestown" director Rachel Chavkin wins for Best Director. That's encouraging (but not a guarantee) for the hopes of "Hadestown" for Best Musical later tonight. She gives a shout-out to Vermont for its role in ushering the production to Broadway success, and a particular nod to Vermont native Anais Mitchell, the creator of "Hadestown."
Andre De Shields, 73, just won for Best Featured Actor in a Musical for playing Hermes in "Hadestown." He tells his hometown of Baltimore he's making good on his promise to do something they'd be proud of. Eva Noblezada, who portrays Eurydice in "Hadestown," is shown in the audience with tears streaming down her cheeks. Anais Mitchell and "Hadestown" director Rachel Chavkin are shown smiling at De Shields' lighthearted, heartfelt speech.
The broadcast of the Tony Awards has begun on CBS. The pre-broadcast awards are in, and "Hadestown" has done well, with Rachel Hauck, Michael Chorney and Todd Sickafoose joined by Bradley King (lighting) and Nevin Steinberg and Jessica Paz (sound design) as Tony Award winners. Chorney's fellow Vermonter and the creator of "Hadestown," Anais Mitchell, lost one of the two categories she's in, for Best Book of a Musical to Robert Horn of "Tootsie." She's still in contention for Best Original Score and, of course, the production she created is competing for the night's big prize, Best Musical.
We have a winner! Vermont's own Michael Chorney and his fellow musician Todd Sickafoose have won the Tony Award for Best Orchestrations for their work on "Hadestown."
Now that I'm done chasing Michael Chorney around town as he sits safely ensconced at the Tony Awards, I'm back in my hotel room keeping an eye on the prizes. The first win for "Hadestown" is already in - Rachel Hauck, who I met on the street just a couple of hours ago, won a Tony Award for her scenic design in the pre-broadcast portion of the ceremony. Nevin Steinberg and Jessica Paz also just won for their sound-design work on "Hadestown." More to follow soon...
I leave Hughes and Lyn at Hurley’s and cross 48th Street to find Chorney and Mulqueen, his friend from Lincoln, standing in front of Walter Kerr Theatre in the suits they will be wearing to the Tony Awards. Chorney, in a sharp blue suit and the jewelry he mentioned in our cab ride this morning, helps Mulqueen - who I had seen earlier in the day in a T-shirt, shorts and no shoes - adjust the bow tie with his tuxedo.
The two walk toward Radio City Music Hall, and I ask Mulqueen how he feels as he headed with Chorney to the biggest Broadway celebration of the year. “There’s a giant part of my brain that doesn’t believe it at all,” Mulqueen said. “But I’m psyched.”
He asks Chorney how the matinee went. “The show was great,” according to Chorney. “I had one of my best shows.”
On the walk they run into scenic designer Rachel Hauck. She and Chorney, both Tony Award nominees for “Hadestown,” wish each other good luck. Then Chorney and Mulqueen get to the gate that will lead them to the red carpet and into the Tony Award ceremony.
“Hey, brother, I love you a lot,” Mulqueen says.
“Let’s do it,” Chorney says. They stroll along the sidewalk toward Radio City Music Hall and the Tony Award celebration.
Chorney comes out of the theater and declares that he needs a beer before getting in his suit and heading to the Tony Awards. We cross 48th Street to Hurley’s Saloon.
“Oh, let’s join them,” Chorney says as he sees fellow “Hadestown” musicians Marika Hughes and Dana Lyn sitting at the bar watching the French Open men’s tennis final on TV. They would be joining Chorney and their band mates at Radio City Music Hall later in the night to perform “Wait For Me,” one of the songs from “Hadestown.”
Hughes, a cellist, offers to buy Chorney’s beer, saying Tony Award nominees don’t need to pay.
“Cheers to a great night,” she says as she and Lyn, a violinist, raise their pint glasses to Chorney.
I return to Walter Kerr Theatre after the matinee and find dozens of fans waiting outside the stage door, hoping to greet the cast. I see Reyna and Pigatti, who did indeed get tickets to the performance. They tell me this version of “Hadestown” was even more emotional than usual because of the weightiness of the impending Tony Awards and their lack of sleep from camping on the sidewalk along 48th Street.
Michael Chorney exits the stage door onto the sidewalk during intermission of the matinee. He says the performance hours before the Tony Awards feels like no other he’s been a part of.
“I’ll tell you, without question it’s the most electric matinee we’ve ever played, for the band and the cast,” he says.
He attributes that to the energy of the day, and also to the edgy, sleep-deprived feeling among the performers. He says he slept very little last night, running through all the things he had to think about – setting aside tickets for friends, making sure to bring the in-ear sound monitors he needs for the performance and preparing to leave details for the musician who will substitute for Chorney when he takes a rare day off from “Hadestown” Tuesday to recover from the hectic weekend.
He checks his phone for texts, noting that he’s heard from many friends back home. He mentions a text from Vermont bass player Pat Melvin, who told Chorney “gong rats and good luck.” Melvin’s spell-check function changed his typing of “congrats” to “gong rats.” According to Chorney, Melvin decided to keep the incorrect correction in place, anyway.
The “Hadestown” cast and band returns from rehearsals at Radio City Music Hall. I watch Reeve Carney, who plays the male lead, Orpheus, go through the stage door at the Walter Kerr Theatre. His fellow cast members Eva Noblezada (Eurydice), Patrick Page (Hades), Amber Gray (Persephone) and Andre De Shields (Hermes) – all Tony Award nominees in the musical based on the Greek myth of Orpheus – file in as well.
The actors are followed into the theater by the musicians, including Chorney. I ask what rehearsal was like.
“Fine. It is what it is,” he says, sounding like a grizzled Broadway pro. He describes the rehearsal as “madness,” with lots of performers back stage at Radio City Music Hall, waiting for handlers to tell them where to go and what to do.
Then Chorney goes in the stage door to join the rest of the “Hadestown” cast and musicians to get ready for their 2 p.m. matinee performance.
I walk back from Radio City Music Hall and see that Reyna and Pigatti have taken their tent down, ready to head into the theater when the box office opens in a half hour. I count 38 people waiting in a line behind them that stretches into the parking garage for the adjacent Crowne Plaza hotel. Reyna said she expected maybe five people – she and Pigatti included as the first two in line – would succeed in getting any available tickets.
Across the street at “The Prom,” I count 16 people waiting in line. I wonder aloud to Boring and Neuenschwander if the disparity in fans is indicative of the odds for “Hadestown” to prevail at the Tony Awards. They rightly point out that “The Prom” hit Longacre Theatre several months before “Hadestown” began across the street, making “The Prom” less of a hot ticket right now.
Brandon Boring and Eric Neuenschwander of Columbus, Ohio, cross 48th Street from where they’re waiting for matinee tickets to “The Prom,” the production thought to be toughest competitor with “Hadestown” for Best Musical. They saw “Hadestown” the night before and wanted to congratulate Chorney and trombone player Brian Drye for their work in the band.
Then Chorney and his fellow band members pile into a van marked “Tony Awards Hadestown” to make the drive a short distance away to Radio City Music Hall, site of the award ceremony, for a quick rehearsal. Gawkers gather at metal barricades blocking off 51st Street and 6th Avenue, hoping to get a glimpse of stars heading into the famous venue.
Outside the stage door at the theater I run into Robinson Morse, the bass player from East Montpelier who joins Chorney and Mitchell as the only members of the original Vermont “Hadestown” crew still with the production. I ask him about what Mulqueen mentioned, that Chorney has been underappreciated for the work he’s done on “Hadestown” and other projects.
“This show has got Vermont written all over it, and Michael is a huge part of that,” Morse says. “Michael is music in Vermont to me. He’s part of the essence of Vermont music.”
I then talk with Chorney about the changes he has felt in “Hadestown” since it opened in previews in March to now. He mentions the tension he feels in the audience just before each emotionally-charged show begins.
“They are just waiting for catharsis,” according to Chorney. “They’re like, ‘We are not waiting for a show. We are waiting for an experience.’”
With Chorney inside the theater to change into his rehearsal clothes, I go over to chat with the two women inside the tent at the front of the line. Jeree Reyna says if she gets a ticket for the Sunday matinee it will be her 13th time seeing “Hadestown” on Broadway. For her fellow New Yorker, Maria Pigatti, it would be her second. They started camping out at 9 p.m. Saturday.
I mention to them that I saw the 2006 and 2007 Vermont productions of “Hadestown,” when Mitchell played the lead female role.
“I would give one of my arms to go back in time and see Anais Mitchell play Eurydice,” Reyna said. She called Mitchell “the next Lin,” as in Lin-Manuel Miranda, creator of the wildly-popular Tony Award-winning musical “Hamilton.”
The two wanted to see “Hadestown” on the day of the Tony Awards, when they hoped it would win the top prize for Best Musical. Pigatti first saw “Hadestown” off-Broadway in 2016.
“My life literally changed forever,” she says.
“I found true love with this show,” Reyna says. “I find I love it more every time.”
For them, “Hadestown,” created by then-unknown performers in the tiny performance halls of rural Vermont, has a richness that productions based on movies or the plethora of jukebox musicals cobbling songs together into a script just don’t have.
“I keep calling it ‘elevated art,’” Reyna says. “You’re not just seeing musical theater.”
“This,” Pigatti says of “Hadestown,” “has a heart to it.”
We get out of the cab at 8th Avenue and 48th Street near Walter Kerr Theatre. Though Chorney goes to the theater every day for performances of “Hadestown,” he keeps walking absentmindedly for a few seconds down 8th Avenue as I walk on 48th Street toward the theater. Carrying a suit bag and a “Hadestown” shoulder bag with his shoes for the Tony Awards, he seems just a little distracted.
We approach the theater and Chorney points out the van that will take him and his “Hadestown” band mates to the Tony Awards rehearsal at Radio City Music Hall. Then he points out something else.
“See? Tents,” he says as he goes in the stage door. Fans are indeed camping out to get tickets for “Hadestown.”
Chorney and I leave his apartment and walk a short distance to Broadway, where he hails a cab for Walter Kerr Theatre. On the ride he checks his phone messages and talks about a jewelry designer who loves “Hadestown” and asked him to wear some bling to the Tony Awards. (He rarely wears jewelry but plans to don a ring and necklace for the awards.)
The designer asked him to hold a gold ring with a broken stone for good luck. She told him it’s from 500 BC.
“You could feel the vibe,” he says. “It’s crazy.”
A small TV screen in the cab plays a segment from the morning talk show “Live with Kelly and Ryan,” a program Chorney and the “Hadestown” cast and musicians were on a couple of weeks earlier.
“That was weird, for me, anyway. I never watch TV,” Chorney says. “It’s interesting to get a peek at the machine.”
I arrive at Chorney’s Upper West Side apartment bearing croissants. He already made coffee, and is sipping it while chatting with his friend, Mark Mulqueen.
“Are you ready for the big day?” I ask Chorney.
“I don’t know,” Chorney says. “How do you prepare for it? The whole thing is a ride. I’m just kind of riding along.” The main thing, he says, is that Walter Kerr Theatre is “full to the rafters” every night with theater-goers falling in love with “Hadestown,” some of whom he’s been told camp overnight outside the theater to get tickets.
Mulqueen is riding along, too. He jokes that he will be joining his friend and fellow Lincoln resident as Chorney’s “best man” at the Tony Awards later that night.
Mulqueen, a mandolin player who was the sound man for viperHouse, never dreamed of going to the Tony Awards. He’s doing it out of respect for Chorney.
“I felt he’s been underrepresented for 35 years,” Mulqueen says of Chorney.
Chorney is used to playing a metaphorical second fiddle to various musicians throughout his career, including Mitchell with “Hadestown.” He’s OK with that. Sort of.
“That’s all right for me. It’s a little bit funky sometimes,” he says of people ignoring his contributions to “Hadestown.” “I tell them, ‘The reason there’s a trombone in “Hadestown” – it’s me.’”
Michael Chorney's journey from Lincoln, Vermont, to the Tony Awards
NEW YORK - Michael Chorney lived a quiet, content life in rural Lincoln, creating music with friends and making a significant mark on the Vermont music scene with bands ranging from viperHouse to Magic City.
One of those musical friends is Anais Mitchell, an Addison County native who asked him to help arrange songs she was working on for a folk opera she called “Hadestown.” That was in 2006.
“Hadestown” has grown ever since, from two Vermont productions to a 2010 recording, a 2016 off-Broadway production and now a Broadway musical that received 14 nominations, the most for any show at this year’s Tony Awards.

Two of those nominations belong to Mitchell, for Best Book of a Musical and Best Original Score.
Chorney continues to ride the “Hadestown” train as he plays guitar in the “Hadestown” band on the Broadway stage.
Mitchell is the sung hero of the “Hadestown” journey; Chorney is the unsung hero, a musician whose imprints on the production more than a dozen years ago remain integral to its success now.
The self-taught musician who had never seen a Broadway musical until “Hadestown” said he barely knew what a Tony Award was before he was nominated.

Demolition work to commence in preparation for The Christie at Macclesfield
Press release posted 12 February 2020
Demolition work will begin shortly at Macclesfield District General Hospital to prepare the way for construction of a new two storey building to house the proposed Christie at Macclesfield cancer centre.
Site hoardings for the cancer centre are already in place and nearby residents were invited to a ‘Meet the Contractor’ event last week (06 February) to find out more about the plans.
Residents were given a sneak preview of the proposed interiors for the new cancer centre, although these are for illustrative purposes and not all the interior design and furnishings have been finalised.
The site manager for contractor Galliford Try and representatives of The Christie and East Cheshire Hospitals NHS Trust briefed residents on the extensive arrangements that have been made to minimise disruption during the project. Galliford Try has signed up to the Considerate Constructors Scheme and all contractors will be encouraged to be considerate of nearby residents.
To reduce the number of lorries on the road, building rubble will be crushed on-site and reused as part of the piling mat for the new building. It is estimated that this will reduce the need for approximately 300-350 lorry movements during the first three months of the work. There will also be dedicated parking for construction staff and a holding area on the A537 near Chelford Road to ensure that lorries arrive on the site in a planned and managed way.
The plans for the new cancer centre were approved by East Cheshire Council in September 2019.
The Christie at Macclesfield will transform cancer care in Cheshire, the High Peak area of Derbyshire and parts of North Staffordshire, providing care closer to home for more than 1,500 existing Christie patients a year.
It will bring together essential cancer services into one purpose-built centre delivering local specialist access to radiotherapy, chemotherapy, holistic support and information services, outpatient care, palliative care and a wider range of clinical trials. Around 20,000 appointments per year will take place at the new centre.
Dr Andrew Sykes, director of clinical oncology and clinical lead for The Christie at Macclesfield, said: “It’s exciting that our team can get started on site and move us a big step closer to this project reaching fruition. Lots of people have said how much they want The Christie at Macclesfield and fundraising for the project is gathering momentum but we still need to raise almost £20m. The new centre will deliver cancer care to the highest Christie standards, but closer to where patients live.
“Many patients currently travel to The Christie in South Manchester for their appointments, with long journey times putting tremendous pressure on patients and their families at an already stressful time.”
Planning for the new centre has taken into account East Cheshire’s ageing population and the predicted increase in demand for specialist cancer services in future years. Patients identified as being frail will receive additional support.
Work on the cancer centre is expected to be completed next year and open for patients in Autumn 2021. Key dates include:
Piling commences - mid April 2020
Steel frame commences – July 2020
External walls and roofing commence - September 2020
Glazing commences - end of October 2020
Highway works commence - mid November 2020
Landscaping commences - February 2021
Building work complete Summer/Autumn 2021
Trust commissioning complete – Autumn 2021
For details of how you can support The Christie Cancer Centre at Macclesfield fundraising appeal, go to www.christies.org/macclesfield
“Of course, the COVID-19 virus has not gone away – we have to be cautious and we have to proceed in an appropriate way.”
Professor John Radford, director of research at The Christie
“I don’t feel at all isolated or abandoned. My care has continued to be provided to the same high standard… I know there is someone at the end of the phone day or night if I need them.”
Jane Emery, Christie patient
“[The Christie] have made what is sometimes an unbearable situation that little bit more manageable… [they] continue to support remotely which is so reassuring.”
Andrew Rostron, Christie patient

Pilot, 2 passengers on plane missing near Vancouver's North Shore found alive
The three people aboard a small plane that went missing north of Vancouver on Sunday have been found alive thanks to the help of snowmobilers who spotted the aircraft on a glacier.
Aircraft, passengers 'in fairly good shape' after snowmobilers spot plane on Pemberton Ice Field
CBC News · Posted: Jun 06, 2016 6:24 AM PT | Last Updated: June 7, 2016

The three people aboard a small plane that went missing north of Vancouver on Sunday have been found alive after the pilot was forced to land on a glacier — the Pemberton Ice Field, about 15 kilometres northwest of Callaghan Lake.
"It's a very great outcome," said Capt. Gregory Clark with the Joint Rescue Coordination Centre (JRCC) in Victoria.
"We're very fortunate to have found this aircraft in fairly good shape, and to have found three survivors and bring them home to their families."
Clark said the aircraft had been spotted on Sunday by snowmobilers, leading to the rescue Monday evening.
He said the passengers had left a note in the aircraft and taken refuge in the valley.
"By all accounts, minus a bit of dehydration, and a bit of wear and tear from spending the night [outdoors], they're in pretty good shape," Clark said.
Clark wasn't able to comment on the circumstances that led to the emergency landing, adding the Transportation Safety Board will investigate.
Reported overdue on Sunday
The single-engine plane was reported overdue at about 7:30 p.m. on Sunday.
It went missing somewhere between Indian Arm on Vancouver's North Shore and Pemberton, B.C.
Earlier in the day, Clark said there was no flight plan filed, but officials believe they planned to fly from Pitt Meadows to Pemberton on Sunday morning and return to the Lower Mainland around noon.
A Canadian Forces Cormorant helicopter and a Buffalo plane searched a rugged and remote 100-kilometre stretch between Indian Arm and Pemberton through the night. The search continued Monday morning.

Phillies Down Cubs 9-8 In 12th
By CBSNews.com staff CBSNews.com staff
June 19, 1998 / 10:29 PM / CBS Sportsline
With the Chicago Cubs sending homers flying out of Wrigley Field once again, the Philadelphia Phillies resorted to some old-fashioned hustle Friday to win the game.
"The winds were blowing out in a gale," Phillies manager Terry Francona said after Mike Lieberthal's 12th-inning sacrifice fly gave his team a 9-8 victory over the homer-happy Cubs.
"There is something to be said for perseverance. It looked like a game they could win and somehow we found a way."
With one out in the 12th, Scott Rolen reached on shortstop Jose Hernandez's third error of the game. When Rico Brogna singled to right, Rolen challenged Sammy Sosa's strong arm and raced safely to third, running through third base coach John Vukovich's stop sign to do so.
Rod Beck then replaced Terry Mulholland (2-2) and Lieberthal hit a fly to center to score Rolen with what turned out to be the winning run.
"I wasn't going to do us a lot of good at second. When I decide to go, I'm gone," Rolen said.
Sosa, who had thrown Gregg Jefferies out at the plate in the 10th inning with a powerful peg, couldn't cut down Rolen at third.
"The whole team has a reputation of hustling. I've seen it throughout the league. People know we're going to be aggressive," Jefferies said.
Sosa hit two more homers Friday, giving him 27 for the season, 18 in his last 20 games and 14 in June, matching Ryne Sandberg's club record from 1990. He is tied with Ken Griffey Jr. for second in the majors behind Mark McGwire.
"Wow! Oh!" Sosa said of his joltin' June. He's one homer shy of the major league record for the month, held by four people, including Roger Maris and Babe Ruth.
"I don't know anything about that record. I'm just trying to make contact. I'm just going up there knowing what I want to do, having an idea and not swinging at bad pitches. We just have to win some games. My goal is to win the division."
Jerry Spradlin (3-3), the fifth Phillies pitcher, got the win by pitching two innings.
Chicago's Brant Brown, who hit three homers Thursday, tied the game with a two-run shot in the bottom of the ninth off Mark Leiter. The Cubs have 14 homers in their last five games and both Brown and Sosa are on a tear. But Chicago has dropped seven of its last 10 games.
" Sammy has carried us to another level, giving us a chance to win, but we're having trouble holding the other club down," Cubs manager Jim Riggleman said.
Jefferies put Philadelphia ahead 6-5 in the seventh with his sixth homer and the Phillies added two more in the eighth on RBI singles by Kevin Sefcik and Rolen.
Chicago scored a run in the eighth on Jason Hardtke's RBI single to make it 8-6.
Manny Alexander walked to start the bottom of the ninth and Brown homered to right center. Sosa's second homer of the game tied the game 5-5 in the fifth off Carlton Loewer.
Philadelphia scored twice in the fifth off Mark Clark to break a 3-3 tie as Jefferies singled, Rolen doubled, Brogna had an RBI grounder and Lieberthal singled.
Sosa homered in the first for a 1-0 lead. Abreu's double tied the game in the second but the Cubs went ahead 2-1 in the bottom half on consecutive doubles by Hernandez and Jeff Blauser.
Rolen singled in a run and Brogna had an RBI grounder following an error on Hernandez to give the Phillies a 3-2 lead in the third. But some shaky Philly fielding produced another tie in the bottom of the inning. Brown tripled and scored on Mickey Morandini's high fly double that fell between center fielder Sefcik -- in just his seventh outfield start -- and right fielder Abreu.
The Cubs have signed veteran lefty reliever Tony Fossas to a Triple-A contract. He was 0-3 with a 8.74 ERA for Seattle earlier this season.
Sosa has 27 multi-homer games, including five this season. The major league record for June homers is 15, a mark held by four players -- Ruth, Maris, Bob Johnson and Pedro Guerrero. The major league record for homers in any month is 18 by Detroit's Rudy York in August 1937. The NL mark is 17 by Willie Mays of the Giants in August 1965. Sosa also has 28 RBIs in June, one shy of Hack Wilson's club record set in 1930.
The second largest crowd of the season, announced at 39,592, watched on a gorgeous 79-degree day with the wind blowing out at 15 mph.
The Phillies have beatn the Cubs five times in seven meetings this season.

Notes from the Field: Two Cases of Legionnaires’ Disease in Newborns After Water Births — Arizona, 2016
Weekly / June 9, 2017 / 66(22);590–591
Geoffrey Granseth, MPH1,2; Rachana Bhattarai, MS1; Tammy Sylvester, MSN3; Siru Prasai, MD3; Eugene Livar, MD1 (View author affiliations)
Legionnaires’ disease is a severe, sometimes fatal disease characterized by fever, myalgia, cough, and clinical or radiographic pneumonia, caused by inhaling or aspirating small droplets of water containing Legionella bacteria.* In 2015, approximately 6,000 cases of Legionnaires’ disease were reported in the United States (1). Nearly 10% of cases are fatal (2). The number of reported cases of Legionnaires’ disease in Arizona has increased in recent years. Surveillance data from Arizona’s Medical Electronic Disease Surveillance Intelligence System (MEDSIS) identified 46 reported cases in 2011 and 93 in 2015 (3), representing more than a 100% increase. During 2011–2015, only one case was reported in an infant aged <1 month; however, during the first 4 months of 2016, two cases were reported in infants, both of whom were delivered at home in a birthing tub (water births).
The first case was reported to the Maricopa County Department of Public Health (MCDPH) during January 2016. The infant was delivered at home by a midwife on January 6, 2016 in a tub filled with tap water. The 1- and 5-minute Apgar scores were 5/10 and 9/10, respectively. The following day the infant was taken to a local emergency department with severe respiratory distress, tachypnea, and hypoxemia, where a diagnosis of congenital heart disease was made; the infant was transferred to children’s hospital A. An initial chest radiograph showed a confluent opacity in the lower left lobe, which was initially thought to represent atelectasis, although pneumonia could not be excluded. During the hospital stay, serial chest radiograph revealed persisting bilateral pulmonary infiltrates with possible cavitary lesions. The infant was later transferred to children’s hospital B where a bronchoscopy was performed, and a bronchoalveolar lavage culture tested positive for Legionella pneumophila, later identified at CDC as serogroup 1. The patient was treated with a 10-day course of azithromycin, but remained hospitalized for more than 2 months, primarily because of the congenital heart disease.
MCDPH conducted an epidemiologic investigation to identify the etiology of Legionnaires’ disease and provide recommendations based on potentially remediable transmission routes. The investigation revealed that a newly purchased birthing tub had been cleaned with vinegar and water before being filled with municipal tap water using a new drinking water hose immediately before the delivery. The mother delivered the child within an hour of entering the tub, and no aspiration by the infant was noted. No other risk factors for Legionella transmission were identified.
The second case was reported to MCDPH on April 18, 2016. The infant had been delivered by water birth at home on April 5 by a different, independently operating midwife, at home. Three days after delivery, the infant developed a fever reported to be as high as 101.0°F (38.3°C); the fever recurred the following day, at which time the baby was brought to the emergency department of hospital A for evaluation; the infant’s temperature was 102.6°F (39.2°C) and a chest radiograph showed fluffy nodular opacities. The infant was admitted for treatment of neonatal sepsis and suspected pneumonia. On April 12, upper respiratory tract secretions and a urine specimen were collected. The urinary antigen test was positive for Legionella pneumophila antigen, and culture of the respiratory tract secretions was positive for Legionella pneumophila, later identified at CDC as serogroup 6.† The patient was started on a 10-day course of azithromycin and later discharged on April 16.
An infection preventionist at hospital A familiar with the first case reported the second case to MCDPH after inquiring about the delivery method and learning of the home water birth. Investigation of this case revealed that the water birth had taken place in a rented jetted Jacuzzi hot tub. The tub had been filled with municipal tap water using a newly purchased hose and maintained at 98.0°F (36.7°C) in the bedroom for a week before the delivery. During the birth, the mother labored outside the tub and entered the tub for delivery only. No aspiration by the infant was noted.
Investigation of these two cases identified numerous gaps in infection prevention for water births, including use of a jetted Jacuzzi rather than a disposable birthing tub, and allowing the water to remain for a week at 98.0°F (36.7°C), which is within the optimum range for Legionella growth 77.0°F–108.0°F (25.0°C–42.2°C). Although the tub for delivery in the first case was filled immediately before the birth, tap water is not sterile, and Legionella can grow and spread in man-made water systems, such as plumbing systems. Because both tubs were emptied immediately after the births, no environmental sampling was performed.
During the follow-up investigation, a report of a Legionellosis death in an infant after a water birth in Texas in 2014 was identified (4). On the basis of subsequent guidelines developed by the Texas Department of State Health Services to assist licensed midwives conducting water births, the Arizona Department of Health Services (ADHS) and MCDPH, with support and guidance of the Arizona Healthcare-Associated Infection and Midwife Advisory Committees, developed educational resources and guidelines in November 2016.§,¶ These resources aim to increase knowledge about the risk for Legionella infection and maximize the safety for women choosing water immersion for labor or birth by providing a review of information on labor and birth in water. For example, although the risk for Legionella infection cannot be eliminated because of the need for warm tap water to fill the tub, it can be reduced by running hot water through the hose for 3 minutes before filling the tub to clear the hose and pipes of stagnant water and sediment. These materials have been distributed to a listserv of >1,300 Healthcare-Associated Infection contacts, shared with the local Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology Chapter, and disseminated to all licensed midwives in the state. The materials are public and posted on the ADHS website at http://www.azdhs.gov/licensing/special/midwives/index.php#trainingexternal icon.

Births, Marriages, Divorces, and Deaths: Provisional Data for October 2009
List of Detailed Tables
National Vital Statistics Report, Volume 58, Number 22
PDF Versionpdf icon (156 KB)
Data shown here are provisional and include only events occurring within the United States (50 states and the District of Columbia). Provisional birth, death, and infant death data in this report are based on a combination of counts of events provided by each reporting area and registered vital events processed into National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) data files. Some of these may not have occurred in the specified month of this report. Monthly provisional birth, death, and infant death data may be updated during the course of a data year. Updates based on registered events will be included in the month the event occurred. However, updates based on counts received from the states may include the event in the month it was processed rather than the month in which it occurred. This may result in a low figure for a given month followed by a high figure for the month(s) in which the delayed records were processed. Once the provisional data year has ended, updates cease. Thus, provisional birth, death, and infant death data may not accurately track either the preliminary or the final number of events registered.
Marriage and divorce data in this report are counts of all events occurring in the state that were received in the registration offices during the 1-month period. Divorce figures include reported annulments. There is considerable variability among the states in the procedures that are used to submit the counts of marriages and divorces to NCHS and in the extent to which the states update their counts of marriages and divorces as new information is received. Therefore, counts vary in their completeness. Marriage and divorce counts, unlike other provisional data, may be updated after the end of a data year if final counts are provided by the state. Readers seeking further information on this should contact NCHS at births@cdc.gov.
Tables A and B provide monthly, year-to-date, and 12-month ending counts and rates for births, deaths (excluding fetal deaths), and marriages, and 12-month ending rates for divorces. These counts include events occurring in the United States to nonresidents of the United States and differ from the data in preliminary and final reports that are based on place of residence. Birth, death, and infant death figures (death and infant death figures exclude fetal deaths) in Table 1 for each state are estimates by state of residence. These estimates are derived by applying adjustment ratios to the number of events recorded as occurring in the state during a 1-month period. The adjustment ratios for each data year represent the observed relationship between final state occurrence figures and final state residence figures for the 3 most recent years for which final data were available and are expressed as a single ratio for each state for births and deaths. Monthly state marriage and divorce figures shown in Table 2 represent the actual count of all events occurring in the state (state of occurrence) and are not adjusted by state of residence.
Until 1998, provisional totals for births, marriages, and divorces for the entire United States included corrections for observed differences between provisional and final figures. These corrections compensated for delays in reporting. Beginning with data for January 1998, these monthly corrections for births, marriages, and divorces have been discontinued. Further information on these changes has been provided in the National Vital Statistics Reports presenting provisional data for January (vol. 48, no. 1), February (vol. 48, no. 2), and March (vol. 48, no. 4) 1999, available from the National Center for Health Statistics website.
NCHS has ceased publishing divorce counts and rates based on provisional data from the combined 50 states because it is no longer statistically feasible to calculate estimates of monthly divorce counts for nonreporting states (California, Georgia, Hawaii, Indiana, Louisiana, and Minnesota). Instead, NCHS publishes only the 12-month divorce rates shown in Table A, based solely on the combined counts and populations for reporting states and the District of Columbia. Aggregate 1-month, cumulative counts and rates, and 12-month counts for divorces have been discontinued because of their very limited usefulness when based on less than the full complement of states. Monthly marriage and divorce counts as reported by each state will continue to be shown in Table 2 .
In 2006, in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, Louisiana temporarily suspended collection of marriage counts (Louisiana does not provide NCHS with divorce counts; see previous paragraph). The 12-month ending marriage rate shown in Table A for 2007, which is computed based on marriages that occurred in 2006, excludes Louisiana data; the population for this rate also excludes Louisiana. Louisiana reinstated the collection of marriage counts in 2007.
Population estimates used for computing rates originate from the U.S. Census Bureau and are based on the 2000 census. All population estimates used for a single data year are based on population estimates of the same vintage (that is, the same reference year). Changes in rates between years in part reflect differences between vintages of the population estimates. Monthly population estimates may fluctuate from month to month even among estimates of the same vintage. This is especially true for population subgroups (e.g., females 15-44). This monthly variability in population estimates will be reflected in population based rates. Monthly rates are based on populations estimated for the specific month. Year-to-date rates are averages of monthly rates that have been weighted by the number of days in the corresponding months. Rates for 12-month periods are the sum of events for the period per population estimated at the midpoint of the period. Populations have been estimated by NCHS for the 12-month divorce rates based on the 44 reporting states and the District of Columbia. Monthly infant mortality rates are based on relatively few events and are highly variable. As a result, NCHS has discontinued publishing provisional monthly state specific infant mortality rates. National monthly infant mortality rates will continue to be available in Tables A and B .

Evolving ‘Phishing Expeditions’ Increasingly Popular Cyber Tactic
April 30, 2015 BRINK Editorial Staff

Twitter Facebook LinkedIn Email Print Article
The tried-and-true “phishing” campaigns of yesteryear are evolving. When these types of cyber-attacks first appeared they aimed at convincing a user that their bank needed them to log-in immediately to deal with an urgent matter, which usually lead to the disclosure of passwords or other account information via a fake website made to look like a legit bank site.
Today, phishing campaigns have turned into a tool for cyber criminals as a way to install malware on a user’s device or corporate network. Phishing today is “a favorite tactic of state-sponsored threat actors and criminal organizations, all with the intent to gain an initial foothold into a network,” according to a new data breach report from Verizon.
The report says that “for two years running” 66 percent of incidents that “comprise the Cyber-Espionage pattern have featured phishing.”
There’s a reason why this stalwart of cyber maleficence has been kept in play for so long: it just works.
The report noted that nearly one in four people presented with a phishing message actually opens the email; another 11 percent of those click on any attachment to the message. However, the report did show a “slight decline” in the numbers of people actually going to a fake website and disclosing information.
Phishing messages are today typically sent as a part of a “campaign,” the report said. For security officials trying to ferret out such campaigns, time is not on your side. According to the report, the median time it took the first target of a phishing campaign to take the bait was one minute.
“Departments such as Communications, Legal, and Customer Service were far more likely to actually open an e-mail than all other departments,” the report said, noting that opening emails is, indeed, a central part of their jobs.
The report noted there’s no guaranteed way to thwart such attacks, but did offer up this point plan:
Better e-mail filtering before messages arrive in user inboxes
Developing and executing an engaging and thorough security awareness program
Improved detection and response capabilities
Of course, with no technological silver bullet to rely on, the bottom line defense is… people.
The report quoted Lance Spitzner, Training Director for the SANS Securing The Human program, on the issue of dealing with people. “One of the most effective ways you can minimize the phishing threat is through effective awareness and training,” Spitzner said. “Not only can you reduce the number of people that fall victim to (potentially) less than 5 percent, you create a network of human sensors that are more effective at detecting phishing attacks than almost any technology.”

A great photographer films Rome from a helicopter and transforms it into a city never seen before: a temporary installation, where center and suburbs, structure and infrastructure, seen from above, appear as a big scale model. A voyage of knowledge and discovery in which hierarchic relations, in terms of size and importance, are imagined in an original way. The vision from a flying object of which only its shadow and sound are perceivable. SITE SPECIFIC_ROMA 04 is an artistic project, a work in progress, the first stop of a voyage which will involve, after Rome, Shangai, Pompei and Las Vegas.
Olivo Barbieri (Italy 1954) begins to exhibit his work in 1978. Beginning in the year 1989, he regularly travels to Orient, in particular, to China. In 1993, 1995, and 1997, he takes part in the Biennal in Venice and in numerous other international events devoted to contemporary visual arts. In 1996, he holds a retrospective exhibit of his work at the Folkwang Museum in Essen. Barbieri's images may be viewed in museums and universities in Italy and abroad. During the same period of time, several volumes on the artist's his work are published: Paesaggi in Miniatura, Art& Udine 1991. Notte, Art&, Udine 1991.

Happy ending for wandering pygmy goat
by: Debbie Williams
BAY MINETTE, Ala. (WKRG) — Twenty-four hours after we first told you about the little goat wandering the streets of Bay Minette, things have changed for the little guy and for the better.
Already enjoying the beginning of a new life down on the farm. “The owner did show up and he did say he wanted to surrender the goat over,” says animal control officer Rebecca Jernigan. “He could no longer take care of it anymore and that he could go up for adoption and that’s exactly what we did.”
As to how he got out in the first place, the previous owner says he kept jumping the fence. Now, he seems more content to munch on a quick snack than plan a great escape.
Soon after the original story hit social media, the full-grown tiny goat becoming a full-fledged media darling. Everyone, it seemed suddenly wanted a goat as a pet. “The goat has become very popular. He spread like wildfire on the internet.”
Far away from city life, the little goat has a new home complete with lots of land to roam, even a little goat hill that he can now call his back yard.
“He found a wonderful home,” says Jernigan. “He’s got a lot of acres to run. He’s going to be very well taken care of.”

Mom reunited with 1-year-old son Harper, after working the front lines of COVID-19 for seven weeks
by: Darla Montgomery
(KLFY) We are happy to report that 1-year-old Harper Wheeler is back at home in Texas with his mom.
Harper and mom Tasha Wheeler have been separated for seven weeks while she worked the front lines in a Texas hospital.
Before he left Lafayette, Harper enjoyed a farewell drive-by parade at his grandmother’s house and then Wednesday it was off to Houston!
A nurse anesthetist at a veterans hospital in Houston, Tasha Wheeler said her hospital like many medical facilities across the globe is fighting COVID-19.
But now she says her facility is seeing low numbers of cases.
Tasha says they have PPE’s and the veterans take social distancing seriously.
She also says that’s the facility is safe and the numbers and it’s why she decided it was time for Harper to come home.
She said the first three weeks without him were tough but again knowing that her mom was taking care of her son helped her to do her job.
Harper arrived Wednesday night to welcome signs and of course his mom’s loving embrace with plenty of kisses, a moment they have all waited for and one this front line hero says she could not have done without her mom.

Winners of "This is How I Grow My Business" Contest Announced, Receive mentorship from Champion of Entrepreneurs, Joe Mimran
RICHMOND HILL, ON, Oct. 3, 2019 /CNW/ - To celebrate entrepreneurs, Staples Canada, The Working and Learning Company, is spending Small Business Month by celebrating three outstanding Canadian small businesses and serving up new products, programs and services designed to help small to medium enterprises in communities across the country work smarter, learn more and grow every day.
"Entrepreneurs and small businesses help fuel our communities and we are committed to supporting their ever-evolving needs," said David Boone, Chief Executive Officer, Staples Canada. "There are about 95,000 small to medium enterprises created each year across the country, though 85,000 businesses disappear within that same period*. We want to help Canadian businesses get off the ground and succeed with the right tools, inspiring products and services, as well as knowledgeable staff at every location."
A continued partnership with champion of entrepreneurs Joe Mimran has evolved to include a new product line designed for the savvy entrepreneur called gry mattr and a mentorship program tied to Staples Canada's "This is How I Grow my Business" contest. Winners of the contest will receive in person mentorship from Joe Mimran, as well as $20,000 worth of technology from Staples Canada and Solutionshop services, which offers access to various services like redesigning their logo, improving the customer experience on their website, creating branded promotional products, tech support and more.
"Research shows that 45 per cent of the Canadian workforce will be self employed in some form by 2020**," continued Boone. "We're committed to helping the small business community beyond Small Business Month. Our commitment extends to supporting them every day with new and established programs like this contest, as well as the unique services and products we offer."
All 305 Staples stores across Canada will end the month by hosting a Small Business Showcase on October 30 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. where start-ups and entrepreneurs have been invited to introduce and share their businesses with the local community.
"Giving entrepreneurs a platform to share their business with others is one of the ways we're building community in our stores to be more than just a product or service provider," said Boone. "We were impressed by so many of the businesses that entered our This is How I Grow My Business contest, and we are thrilled to be able to give additional businesses the opportunity to showcase in our stores."

To win the competition, and a cash prize of $500,000, the experts will have to drag their partners, to the finish line. “It’s The Simple Life meets The Amazing Race,” says FOX Exec Dana Walden.
More FOX News
Also, FOX talked about the success of Winter 2016 event series, The X-Files. Will there be more? FOX reveals that they’ve had conversations with the series’ three key players (David Duchovny, Gillian Anderson and Chris Carter) about doing another installment. They reveal since all three are currently working on other projects, it’s difficult to peg down an exact timeline and hints, “All parties want to do more.” When I interviewed Anderson and Duchovny, they echoed that sentiment. FOX also says they are hoping to have an announcement next year with new episodes premiering no earlier than the 2017-2018 season.
With the success of Grease: Live and the upcoming excitement about The Rocky Horror Picture Show, FOX reveals that they’re looking for new ways to be “Market Leaders” in the live TV sphere. They didn’t have anything new to reveal, but revealed that they’re working on future live, musical events.
The network revealed that after the uproar of the new direction of Sleepy Hollow, this season isn’t being written as its last, despite the death of main character Abbie (Nichole Beharie) in the Season 3 finale. “What we know is that Tom Mison is a big star. And the Ichabod Crane character has been so central to the series and the storytelling and he feels like an original, big FOX character. says Walden. “And while there was backlash, there was also a tremendous amount of enthusiasm from fans about the show coming back and about Tom having the ability to be the center of the series and discovering new dynamics and new relationships.”

Empire’s Grace Gealey: “More deep episodes coming up for Anika”
January 28, 2015 Jeff Pfeiffer Drama, Interview Comments Off on Empire’s Grace Gealey: “More deep episodes coming up for Anika”
FOX’s midseason series Empire has become a fast hit — it has continued rising in its ratings over its first three weeks, and after only two episodes it was renewed for a second season. The hip-hop drama has quickly developed a fan base, with people tweeting about it excitedly during its airing. Grace Gealey, who plays Anika Calhoun, head of Empire Entertainment A&R and the love interest of Lucious Lyon (Terrence Howard), is also excited about the success of the show. In Gealey’s first network TV role, her character had a breakout episode on Jan. 28, and just ahead of that, […]
The curious case of H. Jon Benjamin
June 15, 2011 Channel Guide Staff Comedy 1
You likely know his voice, for which deadpan is too lively an adjective, but otherwise it would be hard to pick H. Jon Benjamin out of a lineup. Heck, I’ve seen interviews with the guy and an episode of his new Comedy Central show, Jon Benjamin Has a Van (which airs tonight at 10:30), and I’m still not sure I’d notice him if he were walking down the street. Point being, the dude is nondescript. But how many people in this world are the leads — the title characters, in fact — on three television shows at once? He’s the […]

Inside Meghan Markle’s Pregnancy Diet: What She Can and Can’t Eat
Jessie Quinn
With a royal baby on the way, Meghan Markle has a strict set of royal pregnancy rules to follow — some of which involve her pregnancy diet. Because the Duchess of Sussex is carrying a future heir to the throne, her health is a top concern for the palace and her grandmother-in-law, Queen Elizabeth II. But, with some of Meghan Markle’s favorite foods already off-limits, is she allowed to eat while pregnant? We take a look at Meghan Markle’s pregnancy diet, ahead.

Meghan Markle’s pregnancy diet
During her pregnancy, Meghan Markle will likely be on a strict pregnancy diet. And while much of it will have a health focus, she will probably be allowed to indulge in some of her favorite foods — so long as they are pregnancy-approved. Here are Meghan Markle’s favorite foods she will likely crave during pregnancy.
Meghan Markle reportedly rarely turns down a tasty pasta dish — especially while traveling. Lucky for her, the indulgent dish is not off-limits, so she can give into her cravings while pregnant.
Like us, the duchess has food guilty pleasures. One of her favorites? French fries. “I could eat french fries all day,” she once told Cosmopolitan UK. Should Meghan Markle crave fries during her pregnancy, she likely won’t pass up an opportunity to indulge.
The Duchess of Sussex knows a thing or two about roasted chicken. After all, it’s what she made Prince Harry on the night of their engagement. As the weather in London starts to cool down, there’s no doubt Meghan Markle will make her famous roasted chicken during her pregnancy.
Another food Meghan Markle loves? Eggs! The duchess likes to make herself an omelet with cheese, fresh herbs, and toast for breakfast. Undercooked eggs are off-limits in most pregnancy diets, but since omelets are cooked all the way through, she should be in the clear.
Her royal highness is allegedly a big fan of acai bowls. And, lucky for her, she can still make some variations of her go-to acai recipe.
When it comes to fruit, Meghan is a big fan of watermelon. “I have always loved watermelon and relish any opportunity to eat it, whether plain or diced up with feta and mint and tossed with a little olive oil,” she once told Today. “It makes me think of summertime. On set and at home, I try to always have a container of watermelon sprinkled with cinnamon because it elevates the flavor just a notch, and makes it feel special.” Although she won’t be allowed to add feta to the mix during her pregnancy, Meghan Markle will likely still indulge in her favorite treat.
Another food likely included in Meghan Markle’s pregnancy diet? Mac and cheese! The duchess is reportedly a big fan of the nostalgic dish. “I now buy the Annie’s organic one if I’m craving it, but I throw some frozen peas into it and have this gooey simple childlike meal,” she told EyeSwoon. “I used to cook it for the kids I would babysit, and I always enjoyed feeling like a kid and eating with them.”
One of Meghan Markle’s healthiest habits will likely carry on through her pregnancy. In an interview with Today, she once revealed that she likes to cook a box of quinoa and add veggies to it at the beginning of the week. She then eats it as an easy snack or over a fresh kale salad.

Foods she can’t eat
Meghan Markle is a self-proclaimed foodie. That said, many of her favorite foods are considered “off-limits” for expecting mothers. Unfortunately for her, that means the palace — and her doctors — probably won’t allow her to indulge in some of her cravings. Here are the foods not allowed in Meghan Markle’s pregnancy diet.
The Duchess of Sussex allegedly swears by green juice — she even drinks it in replace of coffee from time-to-time. However, unpasteurized juice is considered a no-no when it comes to pregnancy diets, as expectant mothers have a higher risk of foodborne illness.
Soft cheese is another one of Meghan Markle’s favorite foods. However, during pregnancy, she likely won’t indulge in the dairy product. Experts advise against consuming certain cheeses — such as brie and feta — while pregnant.
The California native also loves sushi. That said, it is widely accepted as an “off-limits” food for pregnant women. Should Meghan crave a roll during her pregnancy, she will have to order something that comes cooked.
Rare steak
Another food Meghan Markle will have to avoid while pregnant? Rare steak. The duchess is a fan of cooking steak with a squeeze of lemon on it. However, she can no longer eat raw or undercooked meat as it could put her at risk of toxoplasmosis.

Excellence Story Close the Gap
A NEW LIFE FOR IT EQUIPMENT THANKS TO CLOSE THE GAP AND WORLDLOOP
PROVIDING NEW OPPORTUNITIES
Close the Gap and WorldLoop take donated used IT equipment and repurpose it to give people around the world access to digital resources. CHG-MERIDIAN is a strong and committed partner of these charitable organizations.
More than just a website
The information available on the internet is the key to education, communication, and a better future for school children in Kenya. Thousands of miles away, Barbara Toorens is director of external relations at the Belgian aid organization Close the Gap (CtG). “Access to computers and the internet can open up the world to these people,” she explains. Without CtG the school would probably still not have any high-grade computers. The term used for this invisible border between societies who have ready access to digital resources, and those who do not, is ‘digital divide’.
CtG aims to overcome these borders sustainably with the help of technology donations from European companies to non-profit projects in developing countries. CHG-MERIDIAN supports this with intelligent solutions, such as those for customers in Belgium and Luxembourg, where new communications technology purchases are combined with the donation of old IT equipment for re-use in Africa, Asia and South America. Deloitte Belgium decided to do this when it invested in 3,000 iPhones. “Social responsibility is a value that is deeply enshrined in our corporate culture,” says Guy Lucq, Chief Information Officer at Deloitte in Brussels.
Intelligent technology solutions that go beyond simple financing and which help break down borders worldwide.
Recycling combined with a strong sense of responsibility
With the help of CHG-MERIDIAN, Deloitte bought a certificate for each new device to confirm that decommissioned IT equipment had been safely recycled in Burundi, a process handled by CtG’s sister organization WorldLoop. Guy Lucq continues: “By renewing our communications technology in this way, we are ensuring that more than 20,000 old cellphones enter the material cycle in Africa responsibly.” CHG-MERIDIAN made certain that the process was smooth, transparent, and fast.
Stefan Ertel, Executive Vice President at CHG-MERIDIAN, says: “There is an increasing number of companies that want to actively engage as corporate citizens, but many of them lack the structures that would enable them to firmly integrate corporate social responsibility activities into their business models.” CHG-MERIDIAN filled this gap in 2013. Since then, customers obtaining new hardware through the Belgian subsidiary have been able to arrange for its reuse at the end of the period of use. Ertel adds: “What is unique is that we have successfully virtualized these processes – and we are the first technology management provider worldwide to do so.” This also applies to the procurement of regular IT equipment. For example, when obtaining finance for new laptops, customers can donate some or all of the used equipment to CtG on the basis of the equipment’s projected fair value. Or they can combine their investment with the purchase of recycling certificates.
Aid projects that promote independence in local markets
With every project it has run since 2003, CtG has demonstrated the huge potential of donations. By 2014 the aid organization had collected around a quarter of a million donated computers, supporting nearly 3,500 projects in over 50 countries. Environmentally friendly recycling of used equipment also requires clear structures, as the stripping of electronic waste, which can be hazardous to humans and the environment, is widespread in Africa and Asia. This is where CtG’s sister organization WorldLoop comes in. The certificates bought by donors ensure that recycling is carried out to the highest standards. Local start-ups and specialist waste management companies in Europe work hand in hand to make valuable materials in the equipment – which can amount to small fortunes – re-usable.
“We were impressed that WorldLoop supports regional companies that will be able to work independently in the medium term,” Ertel recalls of the planning phase. At Deloitte Belgium, this intelligent service from CHG-MERIDIAN created greater awareness. “And that has also changed attitudes toward the equipment in a positive way, resulting in more careful handling, for example”
Deloitte’s CIO, Guy Lucq.
Security, trust, and future success are closely connected
Security is crucial when donating company IT equipment to aid organizations, as the protection of sensitive data must be guaranteed. CHG-MERIDIAN’s eraSURE® program offers certified data erasure to match customer needs at the end of the period of use. The erasure solutions are fully certified, including by the TÜV product standards regulator and DEKRA. Every year, hundreds of thousands of assets are prepared for re-use after the end of their leasing period, including around 100,000 erasures, at CHG-MERIDIAN’s Technology and Service Center in Germany.
Deloitte plans to continue supporting aid projects through its IT donations, however, standard solutions are not being considered. From a business point of view, it is imperative to evaluate each case individually. “That’s why we need flexibility. And our long-standing business partner CHG-MERIDIAN offered us exactly this flexibility in this project,” says Lucq.
CHG-MERIDIAN is a leader in the market thanks to this innovative business model. Following a successful pilot the corporate social responsibility service will be rolled out in other countries, and there is a lot of interest across Europe. “The potential for such processes is huge,” says Stefan Ertel. And this also applies to other capital assets that could be donated at the end of their period of use.
CHG-Meridian Close the gap
European companies donate technology for a good cause: CHG-MERIDIAN offers its customers intelligent solutions to support their socially and ecologically sensible aid projects at Close the Gap and WorldLoop.
Facts on the digital divide, Close the Gap, and WorldLoop
Digital divide is the term used to describe the gap between people with full access to the digital world and those who remain mainly cut off from it.
It affects countries and entire regions, for example East Africa, but also parts of society in western industrialized countries.
Close the Gap was founded in 2003 as a student project at the University of Brussels.
The idea is to take donations of high-grade used computers from European companies and use them to support educational and social projects, particularly in East Africa.
Promotes economic and social development, especially in rural areas, in developing and newly industrialized countries.
Close the Gap supports aid projects in over 50 countries worldwide.
WorldLoop was founded as a sister organization to Close the Gap in 2008.
Its purpose is to promote the establishment of small companies in developing countries that specialize in the responsible recycling of old computers and communications technology.
A further objective is to contain the widespread stripping of electronic waste, which is hazardous to human health and the environment.

Sentiment still sour, US jobs report in focus
The brutal decline in US tech stocks yesterday sparked a wave of selling in Europe and the US.
It really was a day of two halves as sentiment in Europe was initially bullish on account of the optimism surrounding the health crisis and the news about the French €100 billion relief package. Not long after the start of trading in the US, there was intense selling pressure in the much-talked about tech sector. The fast move to the downside in US indices dragged their European counterparts into the red – the FTSE 100, the DAX 30 and the CAC 40 finished -1.4%, -1.52% and -0.44% respectively – while they were showing healthy gains earlier.
Recently, the NADSAQ 100 has powered ahead as big name companies like Apple, Netflix, Amazon, Alphabet, Microsoft and Tesla have been in extremely high demand. There has been talk of gross overvaluations for some time, and yesterday there was a big sell-off in the stocks. Panic selling set in and equities across the board suffered as a result. In the end, the NASDAQ 100 finished down more than 5%, and the S&P 500 lost 3.5%.
The US non-farm payrolls at 1.30pm (UK time) will be in focus. Economists are expecting that 1.4 million jobs were added in August, which would be a dip from the 1.76 million that were created in July. The unemployment rate is tipped to fall to 9.8% from 10.2%. Average wages on a yearly basis are anticipated to be 4.5%, down from 4.8%. A slide in wages would suggest that more lower-income workers have gone back to work.
A strong jobs report would add weight to the argument the recovery continues. The latest manufacturing and services updates have been positive, broadly speaking. On the other side of the coin, a disappointing update could put pressure on the Republicans to reach a compromise with the Democrats with regards the stimulus package.
Equity markets in Asia are in the red as the massive declines in the US dented sentiment. European markets are tipped to open lower, and US index futures point to further losses.
The US labour department changed the way it measures the jobless claims metric to take into account for seasonal adjustments. Yesterday’s reading was 881,000, the lowest since the US economy was forced into lockdown. The continuing claims reading for the week ending 22 August, was 13.25 million, down from 14.49 million. There are clear signs the jobs market is improving.
Putting aside the carnage in the tech sector there were some positive sounds from the US in regards to the pandemic. The Centre for Disease Control (CDC) said that health officials need to be ready to distribute a Covid-19 vaccine around the country from as early as November. The fact the CDC are talking in those terms suggests they are hopeful that a drug might be developed in the near-term. Dr Anthony Fauci, an expert in diseases, said it is very unlikely that a pharmaceutical company would develop a vaccine by the end of October, but it wouldn’t be impossible.
The French government will spend €100 billion to help assist the economy. Funds will be deployed across industrial innovation, green energy and transport. President Macron pledged the relief package in July, but the finder details were published yesterday. The French President wants to cushion the blow of the coronavirus and he will have an election to contest in 2022.
There are growing concerns the economic recovery in the eurozone is fading. Yesterday, the final reading of the services PMI reports for August, from Spain, Italy, France and Germany, all showed declines on July. The readings from Spain and Italy showed contractions – which is worrying. Earlier in the week, the Italian and French manufacturing updates confirmed the negative growth rates in August. The British services PMI report was the best of the European bunch but UK economy re-opened after its continental counterparts so the real test will be whether the momentum can be maintained over the next month or two.
The US services reports were largely positive. The services PMI metric for August was 55, up from 50 in July. The ISM non-manufacturing cooled from 58.1 to 56.9, fractionally below estimates. The internals of the ISM update were mixed as new orders fell to 56.9 from 67.7, but the employment component increased from 42.1 to 47.9 – which is still low.
Gold, silver, and copper lost ground yesterday on account of the firmer US dollar – it pushed higher for the third day in a row. It is worth noting the dollar index finished off the highs of the session, so perhaps the bullish move might be fizzling out already.
At 9.30am (UK time) the UK construction PMI report will be posted and the consensus estimate is 58.5, which would be a slight increase from the 58.1 registered in July.
At 1.30pm (UK time) the Canadian jobs data will be released. The unemployment rate is expected to cool to 10.1% from 10.9%. The employment change level is expected to show that 275,000 jobs were added, while in July 418,500 were created.
EUR/USD – has been in an uptrend since April and if the bullish run continues it should target 1.2000 or 1.2140. A pullback might find support at 1.1696 or at the 1.1600 zone.
GBP/USD – while it holds above the 1.3000 mark, the bullish trend that has been in place since late June should continue, and it might target 1.3515. A move back below 1.3000, could see it target the 1.2800 zone.
EUR/GBP – yesterday’s daily candle has the potential to be a bullish engulfing and should it move higher, it might retest the 50-day moving average at 0.9022. A break below 0.8864 should put 0.8800 on the radar.
USD/JPY – while it holds below the 100-day moving average at 106.92, the broader bearish move is likely to remain intact. A move through 105.10 could see it target 104.18. A break above 107.00, should bring 107.92, the 200-day moving average, into sight.
UK-EU trade deal uncertainty no barrier to further FTSE gains
The FTSE 100 had another strong day yesterday, outperforming its European counterparts as optimism over vaccine approval and a Brexit deal gave UK assets a lift.

Toshiba Portege R835 review: Toshiba Portege R835
March 29, 2012 12:19 a.m. PT
The Good This latest version of the Toshiba Portege R835 is still a great value, packing a big hard drive, optical drive, and full-power processor into a chassis not much bigger than an ultrabook.
The Bad This 13-inch laptop once felt thin and light, but similarly priced newer laptops beat it on style and portability.
The Bottom Line This one-time favorite is still an excellent go-to 13-inch laptop, if you don't need something quite as slim as an ultrabook, and you can get it for the right price.
Reviewing the Toshiba Portege R835-P88 is like revisiting an old friend. Previous versions of this laptop have won our coveted Editors' Choice Award, by offering excellent all-around performance in a slim, lightweight 13-inch body, for a lot less than you'd expect.
But since we reviewed the last version of the R835, a seismic shift in 13-inch laptops has occurred, thanks to the growing popularity of the ultrabook. The R835 now feels big and a little bulky compared to the 20mm-or-less 13-inch ultrabooks from Dell, HP, and even Toshiba's own Z835, which are all available for around $899-$999 for a similar Intel Core i5 configuration, but with a 128GB SSD instead of the R835's standard platter hard drive.
But despite not being the newest or sexiest 13-inch laptop around, the Portege R835 still comes off as an excellent full-featured 13-inch laptop. This specific configuration, the R835-P88, has 6GB of RAM, a big 640GB HDD, and includes features missing from most ultrabooks, such as an optical drive and Intel's Wireless Display technology. While most retailers have this system listed at between $850 and $950, it's currently available on NewEgg for $699, which is an excellent deal.
If you're looking for the thinnest and lightest 13-inch around, take the same money and put it toward an under-$1,000 ultrabook. But if you're willing to trade some portability for features and a great price, the scrappy little Toshiba Portege R835 remains one of our go-to laptop picks.
Processor 1.5GHz Intel Core i5-2450M
Memory 6GB, 1333MHz DDR3
Chipset Intel HM65
Graphics Intel HD3000
Operating System Windows 7 Home Premium (64-bit)
Height 0.7-1.1 inches
Category 13-inch
Physically, this version of the Toshiba Portege R835 is identical to previous models we've reviewed. Many of those earlier observations stand, but the recent ultrabook trend changes the expectations of what a slim midpriced 13-inch laptop should look and feel like, leaving the R835 looking chunky (but still feeling very light in the hand).
The R835 has a subtle dark blue tint to its brushed-metal magnesium alloy chassis. The bottom half of the body feels sturdy despite its light weight, but there's a bit of flex in the lid. This is still a smart-looking consumer/business crossover laptop, but it also keeps the one visual element we disliked last time: the chromed screen hinges, which just look cheap.
Previously, you'd have to spend a lot more on something like a MacBook Air or a Samsung Series 9 in order to get a thinner 13-inch laptop. Today, ultrabooks such as Toshiba's own Z835 offer slimmer bodies for around the same price or just a bit more.
The keyboard, like most current consumer laptop keyboards, uses flat, widely spaced island-style keys. Toshiba's keyboards typically have a vertical row of dedicated Page Up, Page Down, Home, and End keys along the right side. This makes them easy to find, but at the same time pushes the Enter and Right Shift keys in from where you'd instinctively expect them to be.
Media control buttons, volume, mute, and so on can also be hard to find, relegated to alternate F-key assignments and indicated in dark gray icons on black keys. The R835 still lacks a backlit keyboard, which many thinner ultrabooks have managed to work in. It would be a major plus to have in this case.
The decent-size touch pad is acceptable, and it has separate left and right mouse buttons, rather than being the all-in-one click pad style we're seeing more of these days. The mouse buttons are on the small and clacky side, but work well enough.
The 13.3-inch display has a native resolution of 1,366x768 pixels -- the same as most of the ultrabooks we've seen (by way of comparison, the MacBook Air's screen has a 1,440x900-pixel resolution). Though bright, the off-axis viewing angles on the R835 weren't great. Likewise, we've never been impressed with the onboard audio in the Portege laptops; the R835 speakers are audible but pretty lackluster.
Toshiba Portege R835-P88
Average for category [13-inch]
Video VGA plus HDMI VGA plus HDMI or DisplayPort
Data 1 USB 3.0, 1 USB 2.0, 1 eSATA/USB 2.0, Sd card reader 2 USB 2.0, 1 USB 3.0, SD card reader
Networking Ethernet, 802.11n Wi-Fi Ethernet, 802.11n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, optional mobile broadband
Optical drive DVD burner DVD burner
Compared to a standard ultrabook or the MacBook Air, the Portege R835 has a generous selection of ports and connections. Bluetooth is the most obvious missing element, but the inclusion of an eSATA port is rare on a 13-inch laptop, and it's still a pretty handy way to hook up a large external hard drive.
This particular configuration of the Portege R835, called the R835-P88, is ever so slightly different from the pair of earlier versions we reviewed. Those 2011 models both had Intel Core i5-2410 CPUs and 4GB of RAM. This one has a 2.5GHz Intel Core i5-2450 CPU and 6GB of RAM, along with the same 640GB hard drive as before. That won't make a huge difference in everyday use, but the extra RAM is nice. At the list price of $849, it's acceptable but not a bargain. But, we've seen it for as little as $699, which is a pretty fantastic overall value, considering the big hard drive and extra RAM.
In our CNET Labs benchmark tests, the Portege R835-P88 performed as one would expect from a laptop with this very common mainstream CPU. It was closely tied with systems such as the HP Pavilion dm4 and just slightly faster than the R835-P56X configuration we tested previously. None of these slight differences in performance, however, were significant enough that you'd notice them while Web surfing, playing back media, or working on office documents.
The R835 did, however, far outperform Toshiba's popular low-cost ultrabook, the Portege Z835-P330, which gets its price down to $799 or so by dropping the CPU to a slower Intel Core i3. A $1,000-plus version of that Toshiba ultrabook, the Z835-P370, traded up to a low-voltage Core i5 CPU and cut the speed difference in half, but it was still slower.
Toshiba Portege R835 Average watts per hour
Off (60 percent) 0.25
Sleep (10 percent) 0.81
Idle (25 percent) 7.38
Load (5 percent) 48.52
Annual energy cost $4.48
The Portege R835 line has always had impressive battery life, and this latest version ran for 6 hours and 42 minutes on our video playback battery drain test. That's better than just about anyone in the space, and just about the same as you'd get from a 13-inch MacBook Pro or Air. Other Windows laptop makers should look to this as an example.
Toshiba includes an industry-standard one-year parts and labor warranty with the system. Support is accessible through a 24-7 toll-free phone line, and a customized support search page can direct you to online documents and driver downloads for this specific model.
After being hit with a flood of thinner, lighter ultrabooks, it would be easy to dismiss the Toshiba Portege R835 as yesterday's news. And while it's not as impressive as it was when we first saw it, it's still a great go-to laptop that packs in a big hard drive and optical drive, while weighing less than some laptop labeled as actual ultrabooks (such as the Samsung Series 5 Ultra).

Religion: REFLECTIONS- Flying in Formation
By Bill Tinsley
Recently I started the day outside on our deck under a clear pre-dawn sky. The stars were brilliant, Orion settling in the west. A meteorite streaked across the sky just before the east began to fade into gray. No sooner had the crimson and gold dissolved into the soft pastels of morning than the geese began to fly.
I heard them honking in the distance and watched as a long line winged their way to the west, silhouetted against the dawn. They continued to come, hundreds, perhaps thousands of Canada geese in small and large groups, sometimes stretching from one horizon to the other. They flew in imperfect V formations, sometimes in long diagonal lines, one behind the other, wingtip to wingtip. One squadron flew low overhead, so close I could hear the wind in their wings. I suppose they were flying to the fields near the foothills to feed.
The beauty of migrating geese is one of the things I love about Colorado. Who taught them to fly in formation? Scientists who study this phenomenon say the V formation reduces drag and adds lift for each goose. By flying together in this way, they increase their range by 71%. And, since the lead birds put forth the greatest effort, they rotate the lead position.
They don’t do this because of any legislation or decree. They are not obeying anyone’s order. They do it because it is their nature to do it. They fly this way because they have learned over many millennia that they need one another for survival. Life is easier when they fly in formation.
Watching the geese at sunrise reminded me of the unique global challenges we all face, including the Covid pandemic, poverty and famine. To survive and thrive we need to fly in formation. Not because our elected officials tell us to, but because we need each other. During Covid, that means wearing a mask, washing our hands, remaining six feet apart. During and after Covid, it means providing for the poor, feeding the hungry, caring for the sick, opening doors of opportunity for the underprivileged.
The Bible consistently teaches us the importance of “flying in formation.” John the Baptist who introduced Jesus said, “Anyone who has two shirts should share with the one who has none, and anyone who has food should do the same” (Luke 3:11).
Jesus said, “For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me. … Whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me” (Matthew 25:35-40).
The Apostle Paul wrote, “Do nothing out of selfishness or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests, but each of you looking to the interests of others” (P9hilippians 2:3-4).

Tjapukai Aboriginal Cultural Centre
Story Inc.
Over the last 25 years Tjapukai Cultural Centre has allowed visitors to interact and learn more about the Tjapukai way of life and traditional practices, proudly showcasing the rich culture of Australia's Aboriginal people. While renovating their cultural centre recently, they experienced some concerns with the spaces acoustic performance.
Tjapukai
Situated on a 25 acre site, Tjapukai has won more than 200 awards and is recognised as the national ambassador for Australia’s Aboriginal cultural tourism. Holding a defining position in telling the history of Australia’s indigenous people; owners Indigenous Business Australia have invested $12 million in transforming Tjapukai to an amazing modern centre that not only tells the story of Australia but provides a transition between the outside world and the Aboriginal culture.
The foyer area of the Tjapukai Cultural Centre forms the entrance and the place where guests gather before entering the live performance theatre. It was important to the designers at Studio Cassels and Story Inc. to work alongside the Tjapukai team to ensure the space reflected the heart and soul of the community and all its functions.
Featuring a polished concrete floor, high ceilings and floor to ceiling windows, the Tjapuki Cultural Centre presented a beautiful space with an adherent noise reverberation issue. This led to the team at Studio Cassells and Story Inc. to look for a sound absorbing acoustic solution that fitted the culture of the space and evoked the feelings of Tjapukai tribe’s local landscape; the Cairns Rainforest.
Cube™ in Flatiron, Savoye and Opera
Designer David Cassells
Designer David Cassells felt the foyer area needed materials that gave a natural feel and provided a variety of textures. Autex Cube™ was a fitting solution for this; made from 100% Polyester the surface of Cube provides a natural smooth appearance that is available in a variety of colours. To make sure the acoustic solution fitted in with the centres theme, Autex worked alongside David Cassells to design a custom cut Cube rainforest that sits suspended from the ceiling.
The team at Studio Cassells said they chose complementing natural toned colours; Flatiron, Savoye and Opera because “they offered a number of advantages over other materials: It’s soft, felt like material worked well with the overall feel of the space, its ability to be water-cut into detailed patterns gave us design freedom…”.
Because the upgrade of the Tjapukai Cultural Centre was taking place while the centre was still open it was important that the installation could be done quickly without disrupting the regular visitors. Because the team at Autex water-cut the rainforest designs in house and sent them direct to the centre, there was no need for onsite cutting saving time during the installation. Also because Autex Cube™ is made from 100% polyester it is 100% non-toxic leaving the centre with a healthy alternative to fibreglass fabric wrapped panels.
The team at Studio Cassells mentioned that whilst they were impressed with the Autex product, they were equally impressed with their service. “They water-cut all patterns in-house, which saved outsourcing extra processes and were happy to provide the colours to help achieve the look we needed. Autex has been very accommodating and a pleasure to work with.”

Cruise & Maritime Voyages Cruises
Magellan Review
OverviewReviewsDiningActivitiesPhotosCabins
Gilly Pickup
Cruise Critic Contributor
In 1985 Magellan started life as 'Carnival Holiday' with Carnival Cruise Line. It went on to join Ibero Cruise in 2009 and was renamed 'Grand Holiday.'
Ideal for those looking for a traditional cruise ship experience with no surprises
Passengers : 1,400
Crew : 570
Passenger to Crew : 2.46:1
Launched : 1985
Shore Excursions : 588
Sails To
British Isles & Western Europe
Sails From
Dublin, Liverpool, Tilbury, Tower Bridge, Tilbury, Canary Wharf, Newcastle, Tyne, Rotterdam, Buenos Aires, Bristol, Amsterdam
After joining Cruise & Maritime Voyages in March 2015, the vessel entered service as Magellan after a refurbishment which included being re-liveried, and the addition of a new library, bridge and card room, and a modern aft deck relaxation area. Magellan is the flagship of the Cruise & Maritime fleet and like sister ships Marco Polo and the Azores, operates as an adult-only ship.
The cruise ship is named after the 16th-century explorer Ferdinand Magellan who masterminded the first circumnavigation of the globe. Certainly Magellan has some adventurous itineraries including a 120-night round-the-world cruise as well as 43-day voyages to the Amazon, West Indies and Azores. Closer to home, shorter itineraries include the Canary Islands, Iceland, Norwegian Fjords, the British Isles and the Baltic.
Magellan's homeport is the London Cruise Terminal at Tilbury on the River Thames. The building -- a 1930s brick monolith with stained glass windows -- still uses its original wooden walkways for boarding, and if you can look up inside the structure, you can spot some lovely original frescoes. It was also, famously, the port where Windrush -- the ship which carried the first Jamaican immigrants post-World War II -- first docked. Magellan also sails from Newcastle upon Tyne and Dundee in Scotland.
The ship's wide corridors and stairways, as well as expansive decks, give a feeling of spaciousness. Unlike some 'resort style' ships, Magellan exudes a feeling of intimacy and has several comfortable lounges with panoramic seating and observation areas -- ideal for the ship's scenic cruise programme. It's worth remembering this is a traditional-style cruise ship so don't expect to see bumper cars, climbing walls or FlowRiders .Bridge and deck quoits is about as energetic as it gets.
Get Magellan price drops
Save Price Alert
Magellan's mandatory safety drill is more intensive than most ships inasmuch as after learning how to wear the life jacket and listening to the safety announcements, passengers are walked out in lines to their designated lifeboat.
Magellan offers traditional British-style cruising and no-fly cruises from the UK. It is an ideal choice of cruise ship for couples of all ages, young adults and those on a budget.
In general, Magellan passengers tend to be couples, age 45-plus. On a recent cruise to the Norwegian Fjords, 97 percent of passengers were British. Typically, other itineraries attract a minimum of 90 percent Brits with a small number of Australians and Americans. This is not a family ship -- the minimum age for sailing on Magellan is 16 -- and it is popular with couples, singles and groups of friends. Announcements -- the main purpose of which is to alert passengers to shore excursion departure times and updates -- are kept to a minimum and are all in English.
The ship also suits those travelling alone, too, with regular singles events offered. These include a welcome cocktail party and coffee mornings and meetings, which are announced in the daily programme.
Cruise & Maritime Voyages Magellan Dress Code
Casual and comfortable during the day. More elegant clothing may be worn in the evenings and there are usually two formal nights on cruises of six nights or more. As a rule passengers adhere to the dress code though, as is often the case on cruise ships, a small minority ignore it completely.
This isn't a spangles-and-sequins type of ship and on formal evenings, while there are a small number of ball gowns in evidence, women tend to opt for cocktail party outfits or smart trouser suits. On evenings designated 'informal' a suit or smart jacket and trousers worn with or without a tie is suggested for men while again, ladies can wear cocktail dresses or trouser suits. On nights where the dress code is 'casual' it is up to passengers what they wear -- though shorts, flip-flops and sleeveless tops are never welcome in the restaurants.

Christie Launches New Christie Avias-TMS™ Theater Management System
Theater Owners Can Manage All of Their Content, Playlists and Devices From One Central Location; Based on Field-Proven Technology From Arts Alliance Media
Christie® has introduced the new Christie Avias-TMS™, a Theater Management System (TMS) software application that allows exhibitors to centrally manage and orchestrate all of their projection operations within a cinema multiplex – regardless of the diverse projector, servers or operating systems (OS) in use.
Easy to install and simple to use, Christie Avias-TMS™ can be accessed from any location through a standard Web browser, offering management the ultimate freedom and flexibility to conduct theater operations from an office or home PC, tablet computer or iPad. Its many features reduce the costs and inefficiencies of managing digital projectors separately. For example, the web GUI allows centralized scheduling of all content, devices and Key Delivery Messages (KDMs), including a drag and drop playlist to allow rapid changes based on changing customer demands.
“The Christie Avias-TMS™ is an exceptional overseer of cinema time management,” said Don Shaw, director, product management, Christie Entertainment Solutions. “It is ideal for theaters of all sizes, with multiple digital screens and hardware platforms, because it provides an easy-to-read dashboard interface that highlights in real-time all projector and screen statuses, as well as the overall progress of each playlist playback. Theater managers don’t have to move from station to station to manage devices and KDMs. They can remotely start, stop or pause any show on any screen from a single location.”
Collaboration with Arts Alliance Media Praised
In creating Christie Avias-TMS™, Shaw emphasized the collaboration with long-term industry partner, Arts Alliance Media (AAM), Europe’s leading supplier of a host of digital cinema technologies and services. “In keeping with Christie’s practice of incorporating tried-and-true third party solutions into some of our products to quickly deliver immediate benefits to our customers, the core of our TMS was built on AAM’s current, strong TMS offering,” noted Shaw.
Howard Kiedaisch, CEO of Arts Alliance Media, added, “We have worked with Christie since we first started in digital cinema and have always looked for ways of enhancing our partnership. As a manufacturer of digital cinema projectors, Christie boasts its own impressive engineering and development group, so it was only natural that the two of us as leaders in the industry would collaborate to the benefit of exhibitors across the globe.”
Shaw also noted that, while TMS solutions offered by some server manufacturers are often ‘thrown in’ with the deal, “You get what you pay for, because these so-called ‘free’ solutions tend to limit the exhibitor to one brand of server, effectively preventing the exhibitor from using existing or new hardware from other manufacturers.”
Christie Avias-TMS™ is all about choice for the exhibitor; it is OS and hardware neutral and does not mandate the expense of a specific Library Management Server (LMS). Furthermore, it fully supports all DCI-compliant DLP Cinema® projectors and servers, so it can be integrated seamlessly into any existing theater system.
“Like a conductor leading the orchestra, Christie Avias-TMS™ provides full control of every facet of a theater’s operation, allowing the freedom to run with the most cost-effective hardware for each of the screens that make up the digital cinema system,” said Shaw. “No matter how many screens you are managing, the Christie Avias-TMS™ is the perfect solution for getting the job done with a minimal amount of effort.”

How to get Android-P-like features on any phone right now
Make your phone smarter with these Android-P-inspired add-ons — many of which actually outshine their official operating system equivalents.
JR Raphael, IDG

Better volume controls
Smarter rotation lock

Android P is almost ready for primetime, with likely just a month or two left until its official release. Let's be honest, though: Unless you have one of Google's Pixel phones, there's a decent chance you'll be waiting a while for the software to show up on your device. And even when it does get there, some of P's most prominent features might not be available to you.
But hey, this is Android, right? Developers have tons of freedom to tweak the system interface and change the way things work. So — yup, you guessed it, Mabel — with the right set of tools, you can get some incredibly useful Android-P-like features on any phone today. In fact, you can get features that act like their Android P equivalents but crank up the productivity potential even further, with extra options and opportunities for customization.
Now, let's be clear: None of this stuff is in any way equal to an actual OS update. No amount of third-party utilities can bring you an OS update's performance improvements, security enhancements, or other foundational changes — such as those that empower apps on your phone to perform new types of advanced tasks.
They can, however, emulate and even improve upon some of Android P's most prominent front-facing features — and all it takes is a teensy bit of effort to get them up and running on your phone.
[Get fresh tips and insight in your inbox every Friday with JR's new Android Intelligence insider's newsletter. Exclusive extras await!]
So grab the nearest Android gizmo and get ready: It's time to give yourself some spiffy and delightfully practical new tools and toys.
Perhaps the most prominent Android P feature is the software's wacky and wildly ambitious new gesture navigation system. On Pixel phones, at least, you can ditch the traditional Android Back, Home, and Overview button combo and replace it with a single "pill" that lets you get around your device with a variety of taps and swipes.
An app called Navigation Gestures (free with optional $1.50 add-on) aims to replicate the same concept with a healthy dose of added customization. It puts a pill at the bottom of your screen that you can tap to return home, long-press to open Assistant, swipe left to go back, or swipe right to open your Overview (a.k.a. recent apps) screen. You can change any of those gestures and add in new ones, too. There's really no shortage of possibilities with this thing.
The issue with the app, though, is that its gesture navigation system resides on top of your regular system navigation buttons — slightly awkward, right? — and in order to hide the regular nav buttons and have it take their place, you have to install Google's command-line Android Debug Bridge (ABD) tool on a computer, connect your phone, and issue a command to it from there. That's fine for the tinkering-loving power-users among us, but it's not something I'd recommend for an average user to do.
The better all-around solution, if you ask me, is in a powerful little app called Edge Gestures ($2). It doesn't emulate the Android P pill concept quite as directly, but for my money, it actually offers a more natural and advantageous alternative.
Edge Gestures lets you set up gesture-ready hot zones anywhere on the left, right, or bottom edges of your phone. The first two options are the most intriguing, as they allow you to create a gesture-sensitive area right where your thumb naturally falls while holding your phone in a single hand — thus making it meaningfully easier to zoom around the operating system without having to perform that annoying shift-the-device-gawkily-in-your-palm maneuver we've all done far too many times.
You could set it up so that a swipe toward the right acts as your Back button, a swipe down acts as your Home button, and a swipe up acts as your Overview command. You could throw in any number of extras, too — a swipe outward and back for snapping to your most recently used app, a swipe over with a hold down to enter split-screen mode, and so on — and you can fine-tune precisely where the hot zone appears, how large it is, and even how it behaves in specific apps or on your home screen.
All in all, it's not just an Android-P-like system for getting around your phone — it's an improvement to the Android P model, particularly when it comes to one-handed use. Not too shabby, I say.
Android P shifts the on-screen volume controls — you know, those pop-ups that appear whenever you press your phone's volume buttons — from the top of the screen to the right, where they're easier to reach with a single hand.
But guess what? Yessiree, you quick little kitten: You don't need Android P to make that happen. Just download the aptly named VolumeP app (free or $1 for a pro version with loads of extra customization options). Once you open it, you'll have to grant the app a series of permissions, all of which are required in order for it to take over your phone's volume-controlling function and do what it needs to do.
One quick tip: When following the steps to enable the app's Accessibility Service permission, enable only the line labeled "VolumeP2." You'll see that line and another line labeled "VolumeP," and if you enable both, you'll end up with two overlapping interfaces on your screen every time you touch a volume button.
Once you're all set, though, the app — well, it just works: Press volume-up or volume-down, and you'll get a P-like volume control window that adjusts your media volume by default but automatically switches to call volume whenever you're in the midst of a call. There's a one-touch ringer-mode toggle at the window's top and a gear icon at its bottom for manually accessing any volume control you need — media volume, notification volume, alarm volume, or call volume.
Again, it's basically a better version of what Android P provides — particularly when you bring in the various customization options available in the pro version.
Android P introduces a new system that puts a small icon in the corner of your screen whenever the device senses it's being rotated. That way, you can quickly and easily tap it if you want your screen to rotate instead of having the screen automatically rotate itself between portrait and landscape mode, most frequently when you don't want that to happen.
An app called Android P Rotation (free with some optional in-app upgrades) can bring the same concept to any device: Just download it, activate it, and then — this last part is critical and not immediately obvious — be sure to disable your device's system-level setting for auto-rotation. (You can probably find it in your Quick Settings panel as well as in the Display section of your system settings (likely under an "Advanced" header).)
And that's pretty much it: Anytime your phone senses it's being rotated, you'll see a small icon appear in the corner of your display. The screen won't rotate itself by default; instead, it'll be up to you to tap that icon if and when you want it to do so.
Oh, and unlike the Android P implementation — detecting the pattern here yet? — this setup gives you loads of control over how the process works. You can change the icon's position, color, size, and opacity; you can decide how long you want the icon to remain visible whenever it appears; and, in one of the app's nicer touches, you can set app-specific exceptions in which the rotate icon won't appear (though that capability will cost you one whole dollar, via in-app purchase, to activate).

CHINA EXPERIENCE WITH HONG KONG
With hong kong extension
Tour: 2185 SHANGHAI HONG KONG
On this tour through China, you'll explore some of China's most famous sites and learn about its ancient and current culture. You'll start with three nights in Shanghai, end with three nights in Hong Kong, spend three nights in Beijing, and two nights in Xi’an.
A highlight of this China tour includes a visit to Xi’an, where you’ll discover the Terracotta Warriors. These well-preserved, life-size figures of thousands of warriors, horses, and chariots were created in the 3rd century BC to accompany China’s first emperor into the afterlife. They are nothing short of spectacular! Of course, no tour to China is complete without a visit to the Great Wall of China, the longest man-made structure in the world.

Camp Polk Meadow has been a historical crossroads for people for thousands of years. First the meadow supplied plentiful food and water for generations of Native American tribes.
Then, it became a hub when explorers, soldiers, entrepreneurs, and settlers moved West to build the community we see today. Who lived here over the years? Where did they come from? Learn more below.

Native Americans and Camp Polk Meadow
Native Americans were the first people to visit Camp Polk Meadow. Geographically, the meadow lies within the boundaries of lands regularly and customarily used for thousands of years (7,000-10,000 years before present) by eight tribal groups.

Columbia River tribes (Wasco [Chinookan], Tenino, Tygh, Wyam, and John Day [Sahaptin]) came south from the Columbia River to visit Camp Polk Meadow. The northern and southern Molalla peoples came from the Cascade foothills west of the mountains. These tribes had a relatively predictable life with abundant resources and temperate climates. They would augment their diet and trade with other tribes by making seasonal rounds to places like Camp Polk and other nearby meadows.
Traveling over the mountains and up river and creek canyons to trade, the first people came through Camp Polk on their way to hunt and fish, to collect obsidian, and to gather roots, huckleberries, and other staples. The men would hunt game for food, clothing, tools,and a variety of domestic and ceremonial uses. They also speared, netted, and trapped fish in Whychus Creek. At that time, Whychus Creek had plentiful runs of steelhead and Chinook salmon. Women came to the meadow to dig roots and tubers. They gathered berries,nuts, flowers, seeds, and other plant material to be used for food, shelter, baskets, tools, and ceremonies.
The Northern Paiute also visited Camp Polk Meadow. These tribes came from the Great Plains and lived in sparse surroundings, requiring them to move often in search of food. They ate nuts, seeds, tubers, waterfowl and fish, and other small and large animals. Conflicts and skirmishes between the Paiute and Columbia River tribes were frequent.
In the 1800s, disease introduced by Euro-Americans killed many native peoples. By 1834, only a remnant—at most, one-eighth of the pre-contact population—remained. Native people who survived were increasingly separated from the places they knew, and their way of life was coming to an end. Learn more about the history of Native American tribes in our region.

Early Explorers

It’s not clear when the first Euro-Americans traveled through Camp Polk Meadow-. In the early 1800s, the Hudson’s Bay Company and the fur trade brought trappers in search of beaver. In the early 1840s, John Fremont’s expedition crossed the high desert and camped in the vicinity of Camp Polk. By 1855, railroad survey parties were seeking westward routes. Lieutenants Williamson and Abbot traveled through the area scouting routes. Their map and journals provide some of the earliest descriptions of Camp Polk and Indian Ford Meadows.
From September 1865–May 1866, Captain Charles LaFollett commanded 42 soldiers who were sent to establish Camp Polk with orders to protect commerce and settlers on the Santiam Wagon Road. The soldiers built eight log structures and named their camp for Polk County in the Willamette Valley—home to most of the soldiers and to their Captain. Captain LaFollet was born on a farm in western Indiana, Charles LaFollett crossed the plains from Missouri to Oregon as a wagon master in 1849.
Hindman Station

The Hindman family (pronounced Hineman) played a major role in the settlement of Camp Polk—and Central Oregon—from 1868-1882. Samuel Hindman (pronounced Hineman) was born in 1823 in the upper Ohio River Valley in western Pennsylvania. His family moved to Illinois where he met and married Jane McAllister, whose family had come from Nova Scotia. In 1862, the Hindmans left Omaha, Nebraska to settle in Albany, Oregon. In 1868, Samuel Hindman purchased 160 acres of land from the Wagon Road Company for $400. There he built a house and barn which would become Hindman Station on the Santiam Wagon Road.
The Santiam Wagon Road
The Santiam Wagon Road was built in the 1860s to connect the Willamette Valley to the grasslands of Central Oregon and the gold mines of eastern Oregon and Idaho. It was a distance of almost 400 miles and served as a livestock trail and the only freight route over the middle section of the Oregon Cascades for most of the 74 years (1865-1939) it was in use.
Road stations at that time were customarily located about 15 miles apart at a place where there was water and natural pasture. Traveling east from the Willamette Valley, one would stop at Fish Lake, Cache Creek Station, and then Hindman Station. Hindman Station at Camp Polk Meadow was the place where travelers made their final preparations for trips east across the high desert or west across the Cascades. Learn more about the Santiam Wagon Road.
Hindman Station was established by Samuel Hindman between 1868 and 1870 as a stopping place on the Santiam Wagon Road. For travelers, the Station offered a store for replenishing goods, a post office, and a place to rest cattle and horses. For the Hindman family, the wagon road offered an opportunity for barter and some cash to supplement subsistence ranching. Samuel also maintained the Wagon Road from Big Lake on Santiam Pass to the Crooked River.
In 1885, a new bridge over the Deschutes River at Tetherow began directing more traffic via Sisters, bypassing Camp Polk and Hindman Station. The Camp Polk post office moved to Sisters in 1888. By 1900, the Columbia Southern Railroad connected to Shaniko (north of Madras), taking much of the freight traffic—especially wool wagon trains—away from the Santiam Wagon Road. By 1911, the Oregon Trunk Railroad reached Bend, further rerouting traffic.
The Hindman Barn
Today, the posts and beams from the Hindman Barn are all that remain of the once flourishing Hindman Station. Built in 1870, the barn is the only remaining structure from the Santiam Wagon Road era and is one of Deschutes County’s oldest structures. It is a testament to the skilled craftsmen that originally built it and a vivid reminder of how life once was.

The Hindman barn originally measured 75’ long by 50’ wide. It was an imposing structure built for permanence, a statement in a still wild land. It was hand built by a man—Samuel Hindman—who was skilled with axe and timber. What remains of Hindman’s barn now is the inner core structure that is 62’ long x 25’ wide. These drawings, created by architecture student Ed Barnum, show what the barn looked like in 1972.

Samuel Hindman was described as an “axeman”—a man who cleared a line of sight for road and land surveyors. He used his skills to build this barn and likely drew on his knowledge of barn construction from time spent in Ohio, Iowa, and the Willamette Valley. These blueprints show what the interior of the barn once looked like. A distinctive feature of the barn is the 10 foot wide wagon way that passes north-south through the barn. It allowed hay wagons to be unloaded directly into the loft or other parts of the barn.
By 1960, the Hindman barn was no longer used for day-to-day ranching activities and began to be plundered for parts. A windstorm damaged the already failing roof in 1990, sealing its fate. By the time the Deschutes Land Trust acquired the meadow in 2000, all that was left was the structure you see today.
Hindman Barn Craftsmanship + Use
Because the barn was built so long ago and so little of it survived, construction details are limited. Instead, what is known is based on the observations of the craftsmanship we see today.
Stone Foundation: Foundation stones provided solid footing for sills and posts. Most of the barn was probably built around the same time because the plank framing, structural members, and construction appear consistent throughout. Of course, over the years, the barn was altered for different uses.
Timber Framing: The timbers used to frame the Hindman barn were cut on site. They came from ponderosa pines that were large enough to produce straight heartwood beams 10” square. There are sixteen 14’ tall posts on horizontal sills. The top beams that hold the structure together are 65’ long, hewn from a single log!

Hand Hewn: The timbers all show signs of a broad axe—not a draw knife, nor an adze. The barn siding, however, was sawn at a mill. At the time, milled lumber could have been hauled from Prineville, the Dalles, or from the Willamette Valley (an eight day round-trip with freight!).
Wooden Joinery: The barn has mortise-and-tenon joints that are secured with wooden pegs called trunnels. Samuel Hindman would have crafted these joints by hand using his knowledge as a skilled woodsman. The kind of joinery and timber framing Hindman used were more sophisticated than the log structures that soldiers and many settlers used.
The Hindman barn was in active use from 1870–1960. Dairy cows were kept on the north side of the barn. Horses were stabled in the barn on the south side under the sloping eaves that would have connected today’s rafters with the outer barn walls. Hay was stored in a central loft on either side of the main wagon way.

At the east end of the barn a hip roof housed additional stables with wood flooring that can still be seen today. There was a gutter (see photo abovet) in the middle of this floor, suggesting that cattle or dairy animals were fed and milked in this section of the barn. Milk from the Hindman place was sold locally for nearly a century.
The barn and homestead were also a stopping place on the Santiam Wagon Road. The Hindmans “became widely known among the early settlers for their hospitality and helpfulness to travelers crossing the mountains.” Samuel Hindman hauled supplies from the Willamette Valley to sell at Hindman Station. One could buy matches, salt, coffee, Arbuckle brand work shirts, and pick up the mail. The Hindmans also sold fresh vegetables from their household garden and from land they acquired on nearby Indian Ford Creek.
The Hindman House
The Hindman House sat south of the Hindman barn adjacent to a spring that provided water for people and livestock. The house was surrounded by pastures that spanned the modern day spring and wetland between the house and barn. A version of the house—perhaps a log cabin—was probably built around the time Samuel and Jane Hindman settled at Camp Polk. Over the years, the house, like many houses, was renovated, added onto, and evolved.

Samuel and Jane Hindman and then their children Charley, Sarah, and Daniel, lived at the house starting in 1868. Even by the standards of the time, it was a wild and primitive
place, and the Hindmans likely watched for large mammals and their predators. Elk and bear came in from the higher foothills, wild sheep were seen on rock outcroppings, and even gray wolves were seen on occasion. Stories from travelers, experiences with game and wildlife, talk about their own animals, and chores, broke the overwhelming stillness.
Life was dominated by the necessities: food, shelter, and safety. The Hindmans assumed scarcity, made do, and did without. Both the Hindmans and later Martha Taylor Cobb Hindman maintained household gardens. Root crops and corn figured prominently in the garden.
In 1902, Charley Hindman married Martha Taylor Cobb and both lived at Camp Polk in the Hindman house. Martha Taylor was born and lived briefly in Harrisburg, Oregon, but her family moved to northern California before coming to Central Oregon. Her first husband, Alfred Cobb, came from Missouri and fought for the North in the Civil War at the age of 18. By 1883, Martha and Alfred ran the Cobb Road House (just outside of Sisters) as a way station for travelers. Alfred died in 1898. In 1902, Martha Cobb married Charley Hindman and lived at Camp Polk Meadow. By 1920, after the deaths of Samuel and Charley Hindman, the Hindman Ranch at Camp Polk Meadow belonged to Martha. Martha managed the ranch until her death in 1940. She is buried in the Camp Polk Cemetery.

Reconstructing the Hindman House
Much like the Hindman barn, detailed descriptions of the Hindman house are few and far between. We know that it was on the Santiam Wagon Road, 125 feet north of the modern Camp Polk road on the south edge of the wetland. Hindman himself noted that the house was situated over “a good spring of water right under the house in the cellar.” This cellar sump would become the only remaining portion of the home. The house was probably log and milled lumber that was added onto over time.
In the early 1900s, the Hindman house was described by Nate Cobb, Martha’s son, as “[a] big two story house sitting on a slope beneath the spreading branches of quaking aspens, silver maples and huge ponderosa pines, with a spring bubbling up underneath the kitchen, where dairy products were kept cool and fresh.”
In 1947, the Cutsforth and Mahaffey families purchased the Hindman ranch and moved into the Hindman house. By 1960, the house had become so dilapidated it had to be torn
down. Today, the root cellar cooled by the springs is all that remains of the Hindman home.

Parasite Paradise by Ludovic Bernhardt
The Crystal World, a 1978 novel by J.G. Ballard, is set in a spellbinding tropical forest where trees and plants gradually transform into masses of rock crystal. The trees, further to this magical transformation, convert as they move forward all objects and living species that lay on their paths into crystal sculptures. The value of this process is clearly attractive to humans and their thirst for power and wealth, yet such a conversion resembles more that of an extensive dying process as danger and disease coincide with the spread of the sparkling stone. Ballard, through his exploration of a surrealist science-fiction universe, is manifestly fascinated by luxuriant natural forces (here a tropical forest) that carry not only paradise-like magic but also a parasite-like disease.
Literature like drawing sometimes appears to harbour similar antagonistic forces. When drawing and painting convey a mythical promise of some kind of paradise closely related to the idea of nature, they also sometimes provide glimpses of parasitic forms that throw such hope off balance.
It seems thus that Olga Karpinsky, Nathalie Noé Adam and Désirée Wickler have chosen to entitle their exhibition Parasite Paradise because their work incorporates this mysterious connection: the title proclaims that a parasite, both in the open and metaphorical senses of the word, intruded in the artists’ sacred activity. In their work the parasite is not only an organism that lives exclusively off another, it is more broadly a harmful, malignant and infectious element that invades and feeds off the produced signs. We must consider here that the exhibited drawings and paintings, themselves as graphic signs, possess a biological facet. The three artists are involved in such a biology of signs with its relation to parasitic behaviour, and offer a sensitive exploration of this antagonism. They investigate the ‘foreign matter’, the ‘vampire’ contained in the artists’ activity coupling it with the inherent pleasure and bewitchment of nature and nature’s bloom, as in Ballard’s emerald forest.
We know that nature has been perceived by some artists and thinkers as the environment for paradise (from Bosch’s Garden of Earthly Delights to Rousseau’s Noble Savage) and that its idyllic superiority, in such context, is placed in contrast to human society and its impurity; mankind as parasite, humans as polluters of the original harmony, humans and their tainted society. But we also know that mankind has been able to perceive nature as a form of untamed paradise while simultaneously feeling dwarfed by its sublimity, swallowed by its dangerousness and subjected to its demiurgic whims; nature as a terrible and pitiless being. Nineteenth century Romanticism covered this subject in depths. Today, in an era of programmed environmental catastrophes, in a time (also known as the Anthropocene Era) when a new artificial polluting stratum is gradually covering our planet, artists tend to refuse to be simplistically nostalgic about the loss of nature or to disregard its terrifying facets. Some explore the worldwide dimension of the techno-scientific catastrophe. Others direct their interest towards other areas. This is the case for our three artists who concern themselves with the biological dimension: the conversance between plant and animal/ human biology, the biological sphere as a whole. In their work I sense a keen interest in concepts relating to what is pathological and what is normal in the living world. To better understand this feeling, one can refer to the French philosopher Canguilhem who went against the dogma that there is “[a] real identity of normal and pathological vital phenomena”. According to Auguste Comte, another French philosopher, the pathological is a derived form of the normal. Canguilhem declares on the contrary that disease is a different ‘pace of life’; it forces one to ‘[live] another life, even in the biological sense of the word’ and forces one’s organism to alter its previous states. There is no identity between normal and pathological states.
Starting from these concepts and adapting them to art wilfully by simple analogy, it becomes clear that in Nathalie Noé Adam’s drawings both normal life and parasitic life are examined. In her work, plant life and human organic life are struggling, trying to distance themselves from one another; each one the other’s parasite. Her conceptualisation might be close to that of Comte for whom illness and normal life are set at the same level. With Nathalie Noé, plants play a vital and invasive role destabilising human life while asserting their natural luxuriance.
Conversely, in Olga Karpinsky’s work, these two notions appear to contrast more. Her prints show the normal and pathological states as distinct, the latter overturning the former. The natural and delicate normal state, however, is claimed as a balancing element constitutive of life and threatened by deviancy. A surprisingly pure vision of the biological state of plants makes her wonder why the animal/human biological state involves a parasitic identity. Olga Karpinsky’s prints reveal a strong taste for the sophistication of the biological sphere and its creative dimension.
Désirée Wickler’s night environments are filled with compact and primeval mysteries seemingly contaminating all natural life. Humans, animals and trees engulfed in darkness are set in magma where negativity plays an obvious biological role, a magical negativity. The parasite appears to be closely related to the environment, nothing there to distinguish the natural habitat from the dark mass. In this mystical wilderness both nature and ‘parasitic’ state coexist.
The drawings, prints and screen-prints exhibited by the three artists are thus graphic experimentations infused by difficult concepts such as the abnormal, deviant, parasitic and negative states of the biological, plant and/or human realms.
The notion of Paradise promised in the title still remains to be defined. We could naively accept it as being the opposite of Parasite. The title, however, brings about the idea of twinship between the two terms; one letter only differentiates them: the T interferes and takes over the D like a parasite would, which indicates that twinship and parasitic interference are two inseparable concepts. The works of the three artists are indeed playing with the refined idea that there is no paradise without parasite; that paradise, the wonderful garden providing ‘delectable produce’, the enclosed garden dedicated to happiness, cannot exist without the parasite (negative, viral, invasive, nocturnal) that will take advantage of its existence both as foreign matter and as alter ego. The parasite is indeed paradise’s opposite (an alien, an intruder) as much as its twin, the one that will identify with the other so deeply it will want to take its place. This takes us far away from the idea of a virgin paradise to one associated with desires (inherent to life processes) of contaminating what is far too well protected. The artists’ images investigate, each in their own way, this essence of paradise with its dual desire of eternal bliss and inherent abusive intrusion.

Samurai Jack: Battle Through Time is an unexpected new game
2020-02-25 13:00:00by Jordan Devore
Releasing summer 2020 for PC and consoles
We're long overdue a solid Samurai Jack video game. It's too early to say if Samurai Jack: Battle Through Time will be the series' shining star – bearded Jack is a good start! – but I'm at least listening. Another promising sign: the hack-and-slash game's script is being penned by head writer Darrick Bachman.
Samurai Jack: Battle Through Time is in production at Soleil Ltd., the Tokyo-based studio behind Naruto to Boruto: Shinobi Striker. The developer also contributed to Travis Strikes Again and Devil's Third.
The game "ties into the epic series finale," and it has allies like The Scotsman and Sir Rothchild (the lovable canine archeologist), but it's described as "an untold Samurai Jack adventure." The short gameplay clip in the announcement trailer shows a few weapons and enemies – nothing fancy.
We'll learn more about the project at PAX East, direct from Bachman and series creator Genndy Tartakovsky. If you're curious, the Adult Swim Games panel starts at 1:30 p.m. on Friday, February 28.
Battle Through Time is launching this summer on PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch. At the risk of being presumptuous, I wonder what sort of price point this game will hit. $60? $40?
I'll always treasure Samurai Jack as being the animated show that befuddled my grandfather more than anything else in the early 2000s. I watched weirder things, and dumber things, but Samurai Jack was the one TV show that left him speechless on a conceptual level. He truly didn't know what to make of it.

Modern Warfare breaks huge Call of Duty records for playtime and sales
by Scott Robertson
Activision Blizzard Modern Warfare
Activision Blizzard and Infinity Ward announced on December 18 that Modern Warfare has claimed the top spot for hours played for any Call of Duty game this console generation and that sales for the newest installment have eclipsed a thoroughly impressive milestone.
As a new generation of consoles can be seen on the horizon, the Call of Duty franchise can celebrate their latest achievement with Modern Warfare.
Per an official release on December 18, 50 days after the game was released and also the day of a massive Modern Warfare patch, Activision Blizzard announced that Modern Warfare is the number one most played Call of Duty multiplayer game of this console generation.
Modern Warfare sits above the other CoD titles of this generation
The generation stretches back to 2013, when the Xbox One and the PlayStation 4 were both announced as successors to the Xbox 360 and the PS3, respectively. When holiday 2020 hits a year from now, Xbox Series X and the PS5 will then replace our current generation.
But in just fifty days since its release, Modern Warfare has racked up the most hours played, hours per players, and average daily players of any Call of Duty game this generation. Roughly, that number translates to 500 million hours played and over 300 million multiplayer matches.

But the latest installment of the iconic first-person shooter hasn’t just dominated playtime this generation, it’s also dominated the year in sales compared to all other games.
Activision Blizzard can afford a few more tanks with the money made from Modern Warfare.
According to Activision Blizard, Modern Warfare is the highest selling premium game of 2019, having just crossed $1 billion in total revenue.
Also, on a separate note, Call of Duty Mobile, the franchise’s first mobile game, has done extremely well too, breaking 100 million downloads in its first week, and generating $87 million in spending across two months according to SensorTower.

Activision Blizzard cited the introduction of some new features as the cause for Modern Warfare’s vast success, notably its cross-progression and cross-save features, and its new content release system, which no longer requires players to purchase a season pass or DLC.
Now, all post-launch content is available free to everyone across the three platforms at the same time, unlike in recent years when PS4 would receive content early due to Sony’s exclusivity deal with Activision.
A full overview of all new content added in Season One of Modern Warfare.
The continued success of Modern Warfare and the Call of Duty franchise will be an interesting storyline to follow, especially as the with the start of the newly-formed Call of Duty League approaching, followed by the next generation of consoles expected to release during the 2020 holiday season.

Epic Games / Pexels, @Ekaterina
Following litigation over Fortnite’s app store removals by Apple and Google in the United States of America, Epic Games have officially mounted lawsuits against both tech companies in the United Kingdom, as well.
In August 2020, Epic Games added their own payment process to Fortnite’s mobile offerings so that Apple and Google’s cellphone and tablet users could purchase in-game items at a discounted price. This discount was specifically enabled by the new process, which bypassed each company’s transaction fees.
Unsurprisingly, as the payment method was in direct violation of both the App Store and Play Store’s Terms of Services, each company subsequently removed Fornite from their offerings. And, expecting this, Epic Games responded by launching lawsuits against the companies in the U.S. and Australia.
Now, the makers behind the world’s most popular third-person battle royale have tripled down and mounted legal action against both tech giants in the U.K. Citing violations of competition laws, Epic Games’ legal case in the U.K. is very similar to the ones already made in other countries. And, immediately contested, Apple and Google’s responses have proved similar, as well.
Fortnite’s Crew subscription service means even more payments for Epic Games.
As discussed by BBC News, Epic have officially submitted documents to the Competition Appeal Tribunal in the UK. The allegations suggest a monopolistic abuse of power by each company that centers around competitive restrictions to app store and payment processing options, as well as unfair payment fees.
Read more: Epic Games tease more content coming for Fortnite Crew
Typically, those fees come at about 30 percent of all purchases, although exact figures differ depending on company and app. Fortnite is obviously one of the biggest games in the entire world, so almost one-third of their sales on mobile means hefty earnings.
But, like their other lawsuits, Epic allege that this is about more than their own profits. The company demands that Apple and Google begin allowing software developers to institute their own payment-processing systems and options to be downloaded outside of the App and Play stores.
Fortnite has always delighted its fanbase with purchasable cosmetics.
So far, Apple and Google have both replied similarly in the U.K. situation, claiming that they are open to reintroducing Fortnite to their mobile stores but that they deny any violation of competitiveness.

Maayan Zusman retrofits Tel Aviv apartment for tall sporty couple
Bridget Cogley | 12 September 2019 Leave a comment
Tel Aviv designer Maayan Zusman has renovated a two-bedroom apartment in the city, with a range of custom details for its tall inhabitants.
The 1940s apartment was renovated for an athletic couple whose tall heights led the local designer to create several custom details, ranging from cabinet height to sneaker storage.
Zusman collaborated with architect Amir Navon, interior designer Karen Brockmann and students from Tel Aviv's graduate design programme Studio 6b to design the home.
"Almost every item in the space was custom-designed," the designer said. "We took into account slightly different heights for almost every element including kitchen, bed, bathroom cabinets and so on."
The two-bedroom apartment is located in Tel Aviv's cultural hub, Habima Square. The 120-square-metre home has a rectangular floor plan that is split in half between communal and private spaces.
A corridor spans the length of the home and serves as a "central boulevard", connecting all the room together.
Near the entrance is a kitchen with lavender cabinets. "The kitchen's colour is not ordinary for a typical Israeli kitchen and is a purplish-grey hue," said the designer.
The kitchen is joined to a dining room and sitting room, featuring a navy Handvark modular sofa, a Flos wall lamp and two black Ronde pendants by Gubi above a black dining table with black chairs.
Zusman chose to furnish the home with many black, white and grey items to create a contemporary feel, while a geometric rug in the living room has green for added colour.
Completing the main living space is a nook divided by a concrete pillar with a long, metal-framed bookcase and desk below. It is offset from the rest of the area with its grey floor, as opposed to the herringbone floors elsewhere.
Among the challenges in renovating the space was that the apartment was "very dark" and "had many unexpected supporting beams hidden in lowered ceilings and revealed only in demolition", said Zusman.
The design team also had to take into account development plans for strengthening the building in the future, as well as creating extra safe-rooms.
A room was designed that leads to the master bedroom, which can be accessed and closed off separately if needed via two sliding doors hidden in cabinetry.
A new room was designed in the master bedroom, and can be accessed and closed off separately if needed via two sliding doors hidden in cabinetry where.
"When one closest to the master bedroom is closed, the room will contain the bedroom and master bathroom," Zusman said. "If the second is closed, the room will contain a bedroom and two bathrooms."
The master bedroom is located at the end of the apartment, in addition to a bedroom, office and storage space, and two bathrooms.
The bathrooms, which are operated from the bedrooms by glass walls, are almost entirely white apart from black fixtures and casing.
In the master bath is a custom concrete bench for storing trainers, complete with exterior openings for airing. It runs the length of the room and connects the bed to the bath. White curtains hand above it.
The couple's bed has a custom black backdrop made with wooden strips. The mattress is extra long for them as well atop, nestled into a white platform base. On either side of the bed are brass Flos wall sconces.
Zusman and Navon have collaborated on several other projects in Tel Aviv that are designed in a similar style including another home with exposed concrete and a unit with glass rooms and herringbone floors.

HTC Thunderbolt Shows up in Best Buy Buyer’s Guide Priced at $299 on 2-year Contract
Kellen February 20, 2011 @iamkellex 369
Writing about the Thunderbolt was supposed to be a bundle of joy, but as the weeks have gone on and the bad news continues to pile up (sky-high prices, moved release dates, Skype issues, hotspot issues), it’s become increasingly painful. So when we saw tonight that the new Best Buy Buyer’s Guide was listing the device at $299 on 2-year contract instead of $249, we’re on the verge of giving up on it completely and instead moving on to the next versions of our DROID family members.
And who knows, maybe this price is is pre-discount and it’ll end up being $249 after all, but that still doesn’t help the fact that many of us buy phones at full retail and the $749 mark is well, a giant slap to the face. The sad thing is, we almost predicted this would happen back in January, although we never thought it would get this bad.
One more price shot after the break.
Buyer’s guide.

CWD Concerns Persist
Research and surveillance effort for chronic wasting disease (CWD) show the disease continues to spread among deer herds in several states, generating pressure for changes in regulations and management.
CWD, a fatal prion disease related to bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) and the human variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD), affects deer and related cervids such as elk and moose. CWD has not been shown to affect cattle or other non-cervid species, but concerns persist over the potential for mutations that could allow transfer across species.
CWD originally was identified in a captive deer herd in Colorado in the 1970s, and while it now occurs in wild herds, numerous game farms and deer farms have experienced outbreaks, prompting calls for tighter biosecurity in the captive-deer business.
In Texas, according to news reports, of 50 confirmed CWD cases, 27 were white-tailed deer in breeding pens, five were at breeder release sites, and one was a free-ranging white-tailed deer. Wild mule deer account for 16 cases, and one case was a free-ranging elk.
In Wisconsin, the disease has been found in 43 of 72 counties since the first confirmed cases in 2002. According to the Wisconsin Wildlife Federation (WWF), more than 9% of deer tested in Wisconsin in 2015 were CWD-positive, a 50% increase from 2014.
In recommendations sent to Wisconsin’s governor, the WWF has called for double fencing on all captive-deer facilities to prevent fenceline contact and possible disease transfer between captive and wild deer. The group also recommends that:
· Captive cervid farms be required to inspect their exterior fences at least monthly and immediately after any major wind storms in their locality.
· If a captive cervid farm in Wisconsin becomes infected by CWD that, unless double fenced, the property be depopulated within 30 days.
· Captive cervid farms in the state be required to maintain liability insurance to cover any costs and damages to the state of Wisconsin, including the wild deer herd resulting from any escape of cervids from the farm.
The group also calls for increased CWD sampling, funding and transparency in reporting CWD cases on deer farms and escapes from cervid farms.
In one piece of good news, researchers in Wyoming have found evidence that some elk might have varying levels of tolerance to the disease, which generally is considered 100% lethal. Over a 12-year study in a captive elk herd with a high level of exposure to CWD, the Wyoming researchers found that some animals that contracted CWD died relatively quickly. Others lived four or five years, and one cow elk is still alive after 12 years of exposure. The researchers, from the University of Wyoming and the Wyoming Fish and Game Department, suggest that natural selection for the trait could, over many years, lead to an elk herd with some level of genetic tolerance or resistance to CWD. Their report, titled
“Chronic wasting disease model of genetic selection favoring prolonged survival in Rocky Mountain elk,” is published in the journal Ecosphere.

SHORT-HANDED CENTRAL DOES ITS PART
TOM YANTZ; Courant Staff WriterTHE HARTFORD COURANT
Ron Robinson, Central Connecticut's leading rebounder and second-leading scorer, couldn't play Thursday night. He still was groggy from an elbow to his head during the St. Francis (N.Y.) game Monday night.
The Blue Devils overcame his absence and persevered against Sacred Heart 61-58 at the Pitt Center.
"Ron's our anchor down low," forward Rob Barrett said. "We had to all pick it up to win this game."
Barrett did his part. He had 11 points -- all in the second half -- and nine rebounds.
So did Ricardo Scott, who had a game-high 17 points. His two free throws with 3.8 seconds helped seal the victory, which moved Central (13-9, 10-3) into second place in the Northeast Conference behind Wagner (14-8, 10-2).
Rich Pittman had 11 points and eight rebounds and John Alexander limited Maurice Bailey, who entered the game with a 16.9 scoring average, to four points.
"When we needed to, we made big plays, got the big rebound and/or made the big shot," Central coach Howie Dickenman said.
The Pioneers (5-18, 3-9), who trailed 45-36 in the second half, rallied to take a 58-57 lead on a Justin James' drive with 2:46 to go.
A Jon Popofski free throw tied the score 14 seconds later at 58. Then neither team could locate the rim.
With 48.7 seconds left, Maurice Bailey missed two free throws for Sacred Heart.
Pittman, who was fouled by James with 33.6 seconds remaining, missed his first free throw but made the second to put Central on top, 59-58.
Omar Wellington drove along the baseline and fed James Samuels (14 points), who missed a 5-foot bank shot from the right side.
"I couldn't believe he missed it," Pittman said.
Barrett wasn't surprised.
"He tried to lean in to draw the foul," Barrett said. "I saw that and backed off a little. He was off balance when he shot it."
Scott clutched the rebound and was fouled. He made both free throws with 3.8 seconds for a 61-58 lead.
Wellington's three at the horn bounced off the front of the rim.
"It's tough, real tough," said Wellington, who had 10 points. "We've been losing like that my three years here. We're close, but we just can't finish games."
Central did, winning for the ninth time in 11 games, even with Robinson (11.9 points and nine rebounds) on the bench.
Starting Barrett wasn't the only change in Central's lineup. In the wake of the 78-55 loss to St. Francis, Dickenman started Lenny Jefferson in Scott's small forward spot and Justin Chiera in Popofski's shooting guard slot.
It didn't help much as Central led 27-26 at halftime.
But the Blue Devils did just enough to escape the Pitt Center. Scott's 11 points in the final half evoked memories of the game here last season when he had 20 points, including a three at the buzzer to force overtime in Central's 78-69 victory.
His dunk and a three Thursday night put Central ahead 45-36 with 10 1/2 minutes to go.
"Scott was tough and so were they when they needed it," Wellington said.

Why Cloudability Guarantees Job Interviews for Thinkful Students
Inside This Article
By Imogen Crispe
Thinkful just launched Tailored Talent – custom online coding bootcamps to train students for jobs at specific companies – but what does this mean for students and hiring companies? Cody LeClaire from Thinkful talks logistics and tells us what students can expect if they join a customized class. And Marcus Carter, Talent Acquisition Partner at Portland tech company Cloudability, tells us about building curriculum with Thinkful, why his team is guaranteeing job interviews for Thinkful graduates, and why Cloudability embraces candidates from a diverse background.
Cody, how do companies traditionally hire employees? And how is the Tailored Talent program different?
Cody: We're seeing many companies, especially at the Fortune and enterprise level, radically retooling their current workforce in the wake of changing digital and technical needs. At the same time, there's still a very real challenge for businesses to find the best new talent. The last report published by code.org claimed there were around half a million open computing jobs in America today, and that's only going to grow. So the demand for new talent is overwhelming, but companies don't just want more talent, they want the best talent.
Traditionally, companies recruit graduates out of an educational institution. But we're seeing more and more companies that want to have a hand in the educational experience. Our goal is to really customize the educational experience as much as possible to the individual employer. We know from conversations with employers that they need more specific training. Each company works in specific technologies, framework, stacks, and the general Thinkful program may not necessarily service those specific needs. We did months of research and created our Tailored Talent program, which is designed to match the needs of each business as closely as possible.
Marcus, as a Talent Acquisition Partner at Cloudability, what does your company gain from working with Thinkful’s Tailored Talent program?
Marcus: This is an intentional partnership to create a more diverse talent pipeline. I initially came across Thinkful at a diversity and inclusion panel in Portland, where I sat next to a Thinkful student who really impressed me. I knew we (Thinkful + Cloudability) were both interested in creating a more diverse and inclusive tech environment. Our alignment on diversity and inclusion led us to explore ways we can leverage the partnership to build a diverse pipeline.
To fill this cohort, Thinkful is reaching out to partners like Women in Tech, Women Who Code, and other underrepresented groups to source the students, and that was extremely appealing to us. The opportunity to partner with Thinkful in this capacity far exceeded our initial vision and outcome associated with the partnership.
What is the hiring market like in Portland right now? Where do you currently find software development talent?
Marcus: The hiring market is fairly healthy for entry-level engineers in Portland. Cloudability is unique in that we hire a mix of computer science graduates and also folks who come from coding bootcamps like Thinkful. We actually just hired two Thinkful graduates earlier this year. At Cloudability, we’ve had awesome relationships with code schools in general. I hope our partnership with Thinkful signals to candidates and other organizations our commitment to embrace various backgrounds, skill sets, and perspectives.
So Cody, how do the Tailored Talent programs work?
Cody: Thinkful partner companies will work alongside our expert staff to design custom courses that include the tools and frameworks each business needs. We then tailor the admissions and acceptance process to select the best fit for our partner company. This means companies like Cloudability will receive a consistent flow of talent.
We do have a lot of companies that ask about having their employees participate in our Full Stack Flex program, Engineering Immersion, or Data Science, but right now, this is purely focused on new talent.
And what will these programs look like to applicants or students?
Cody: Candidates will apply as usual for either the Full Stack Flex or the Engineering Immersion program. During that admissions process, we’ll reach out to students in cities where we have these partnerships – whether or not they want to have their candidacy considered for these opportunities is really up to them. If they choose to do the Engineering Immersion course through Tailored Talent, companies have agreed to guarantee interviews or apprenticeships to a minimum of 20 students.
Marcus: This program works for us, but I think this pipeline is also good for students. One thing I frequently hear from code school students and college students is that once they leave their university or educational institute, they are left to their own devices, whereas this program offers a funnel to Cloudability and a potential career.
What is the process for building the customized curriculum?
Cody: We identify the organization’s learning objectives, outcomes, and needs to develop the strongest talent pipeline. And then we create a curriculum outline. We'll design custom modules that include those tools and frameworks, and then go back and forth in a very collaborative effort.
Marcus: Prior to launching the cohort, Cloudability’s engineering leads sat down with Thinkful’s curriculum director, and were able to discuss languages, technologies, and outline what the program looks like on Thinkful’s end, and what it will look like for students. The languages that Cloudability needs students to learn at Thinkful include Ruby, Python, Java, GoLang, JavaScript, and React. So those will be incorporated into the custom portion of the curriculum.
Will these custom curricula for companies like Cloudability be completely new, or will they include quite a lot of existing Thinkful modules?
Cody: The first phases of the programs won't change. Much of that fundamental curriculum through the first phase will be the same as our regular programs.
In the last third of the program, students are introduced to the new tools and frameworks that would be required for the business to guarantee them an interview. Obviously, students would be paired with mentors who are proficient with the tools and frameworks required for the organization. But for the most part, their experience would be very typical of our current programs.
Will a partner like Cloudability get to interview Thinkful applicants?
Cody: The company has a very strong hand in selecting students for the Tailored Talent track. At this point, most companies are looking for culture fit, because the students won’t have the technical skills that early in the program. Some partners do want to get involved with more than just the curriculum. They want to have the students visit the employer site, and interact with some of the staff and things like that.
Marcus: There will also be an opportunity for us to speak to the candidates and introduce them to Cloudability. We want them to get a sense for our environment, speak with some of our leads, and just make sure it’s a match for them as well as a match for us.
One of the gaps we might see in working with other code school is you don’t necessarily have an update on how an individual student is managing the workload and progressing. But with Thinkful, we’ll have an opportunity to follow up with mentors, ask how people are performing, find any changes we might need to make, and how can we best support the student, their growth, and their development. It’s awesome to be hands-on in that manner with the mentor.
What happens when students complete the program? Are they guaranteed a job?
Cody: Following the completion of the program, those graduates will transition directly into the company's hiring funnel. Each of our partners guarantee graduates either an interview for an entry-level position, or an actual junior level position. That could be a contract to hire or paid apprenticeship.
Marcus: The interview at Cloudability is guaranteed. Our goal is to have paid interns starting at Cloudability every four to six months. When we take on interns in our engineering department, our goal is to make them full-time. We have opportunities for our front end teams and back end teams, so they would fit in one of those buckets.
In addition to Cloudability, what other companies will Thinkful work with and where?
Cody: Right now we've started with roughly a dozen partnerships in select cities. We're in Portland, Atlanta, Washington DC, Phoenix, and San Diego. We also have some individual partners in other cities like New York.
Our partners are from a wide range of industries including entertainment, FinTech, traditional dev shops, and even consulting companies that are servicing the food or service industries. We are on track to close over 30 partnerships this year as part of our first initiatives roll out.
Have you actually started training any candidates yet?
Cody: We will begin in July, when the first set of students across all of our partnerships begin. We expect graduates to start coming out in December and January.
How is the cost of the program tuition covered? Do companies pay a fee?
Cody: It depends. We do ask that our partners consider contributing scholarship funds to help subsidize the program for our students, but not every company can facilitate that. So the program tuition will still need to be paid by the student directly.
We do offer our income share agreements, which allow students to do the training at no cost until they start earning in their new role.
Marcus: At this point we are not offering scholarships for students, however, I think there is an opportunity to do that in future.
If the student is not hired by the partner company, will the Thinkful tuition guarantee still apply?
Cody: Our guarantee will still apply to any students that enroll in our program. If they don't find a job through that partnership, for instance, we will still invest all the time necessary like we do with any of our students. The career support that we provide after the program would look no different.
What’s your advice to a student who wants to make sure they can succeed in an internship at Cloudability?
Marcus: I have faith in the screening and processes Thinkful has put in place, and as long as you’re progressing through Thinkful, you’ll do well. Yes, we are creating a tailored cohort that fits our development environment, but personality-wise, and how a student chooses to complete the program is up to them. I definitely recommend students attend some of Thinkful’s in-person trainings, lunches, and dinners they offer in Portland, and you might bump into me!

Number of IT failures in banking sector “unacceptable”
MPs in the Treasury Committee have warned greater levies and regulation in the banking sector may be necessary, unless they can improve their IT infrastructure.
Calum Fuller
Editor at Credit Strategy. Previously held roles at Accountancy Age, Accountancy Daily and the Leicester Mercury.
A report by the committee found that IT failures at banks was frequent and “unacceptable”. It said the crashes often left customers cut off and without access to cash or services, particularly given the fall in the number of branches and cash machines.
As such, the ministers said, there is a greater urgency in ensuring online banking works.
During 2018, a major IT outage hit at least one UK bank every day, according to consumer group Which?.
The MPs suggest the three major regulators – Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA) and the Bank of England – do not have the capacity to deal with the growing number of computer failures.
An increase in the financial levies on banks may be needed to ensure that the regulators are adequately funded and resourced, the report says.
The committee also raised concerns over the increased use of third-party providers of cloud services for computing power and data storage.
“The consequences of a major operational incident at a large cloud service provider, such as Microsoft, Google or Amazon, could be significant,” the report said. “There is, therefore, a considerable case for the regulation of these cloud service providers to ensure high standards of operational resilience.”
Steve Baker MP, the Treasury Committee’s lead member for the inquiry, said: “The number of IT failures that have occurred in the financial services sector, including TSB, Visa and Barclays, and the harm caused to consumers, is unacceptable.
“The committee, therefore, launched this inquiry to look under the bonnet at what’s causing the proliferation of such incidents, and what the regulators can do to prevent and mitigate their impacts.
“The regulators must take action to improve the operational resilience of financial services sector firms. They should increase the financial sector levies if greater resources are required, ensure individuals and firms are held to account for their role in IT failures, and ensure that firms resolve customer complaints and award compensation quickly.
“For too long, financial institutions issue hollow words after their systems have failed, which is of no help to customers left cashless and cut-off. And for too long, we have waited for a comprehensive account of what happened during the TSB IT failure. Our inquiry into service disruption at TSB remains open, and I’ve no doubt that the committee will want to examine Slaughter and May’s report and the progress of the regulators’ investigation.”
UK Finance chief executive Stephen Jones said: "Operational resilience is crucial in a modern financial system and the industry continues to invest billions to ensure systems, human and digital, are robust and secure. When incidents do occur, firms work around the clock to minimise disruption and get services back up and running as quickly as possible.
"Digital innovation is transforming the way money is managed with 24/7 access to payment systems, increasing the range of day to day banking options and providing better back-up for customers if a service is temporarily disrupted.
"The industry conducts sector-wide exercises with regulators to ensure it is prepared to respond effectively to any major disruptions or events as part of its continued commitment to maintaining the resilience of the financial system. UK Finance continues to engage with government over how coordination between regulatory authorities could be improved, seeking to avoid overlapped or rushed mandatory change programmes that impact firms’ ability to protect their customers.”

Social gathering, events to remain banned in B.C. as daily COVID-19 cases stay high
Extension comes as B.C. sees 761 new infections, eight additional deaths due to the novel coronavirus
Jan. 7, 2021 4:10 p.m.
B.C. health officials say the current bans on social gatherings and restrictions on athletics will be extended another four weeks, until Feb. 5, as the province continues to see high daily case totals of new COVID-19 cases.
“Our curve is trending upwards,” provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry said in a news conference Thursday (Jan. 7).
In the past 24 hours, the province recorded a record-high number of cases in about one month’s time with 761 new infections of the novel coronavirus, as well as eight additional deaths.
As most of the 6,349 active cases recover in their homes, hospitalizations remain near record-highs at 372 people in hospital, 74 of whom are in critical or intensive care.
There are 51 active outbreaks in long term care and acute care facilities.
While expected by many that the health orders in effect over the holiday break would be extended, Henry said it is crucial that the province “stay the course” until transmission and contraction of the respiratory illness decreases.
“We don’t want to keep these restrictions a second longer than we have to,” Health Minister Adrian Dix said, reiterating the pair’s continued calls to follow the rules, which include no gatherings outside of your direct household.

Since about a year ago, 56,015 people have tested positive for the virus in B.C.
B.C. officials continue to get vaccinations into the arms of frontline health workers and elderly people in long term care homes. Henry confirmed that 41,064 British Columbians have received their first of two doses as of Thursday.

Gladiators v Zalmi, a rivalry ready to light up HBL PSL 2020
By PCB
Courtesy PCB
Since its advent the HBL Pakistan Super League has brought forward some riveting on-field rivalries and contests between Quetta Gladiators and Peshawar Zalmi have kept the fans at the edge of their seats.
Gladiators and Zalmi are the two most successful teams in the history of HBL PSL with success percentages of 61.90 and 58.69, respectively, and both the teams have bagged an HBL PSL title once.
After two nail-biting play-offs between them, they faced-off in the 2017 edition’s final, which was played at Pakistan’s home of cricket, Qaddafi Stadium, and was the first HBL PSL match on the Pakistan soil. Peshawar Zalmi, captained by Darren Sammy, were the comfortable winners in that match by 58 runs.
Sarfaraz Ahmed-led Gladiators avenged the defeat last year as they secured an eight-wicket win over Zalmi in front of a rousing Karachi crowd at the National Stadium.
Both Gladiators and Zalmi have played three finals each and there has been no HBL PSL final in which either of the sides hasn’t featured.
Because of their brilliant record and star-power in the ranks, both teams enjoy massive fan following stretching across Pakistan and the two group-stage contests between them on 22 February in Karachi and 5 March in Rawalpindi are expected to fill the stadiums to their capacity.
Past results (matches 14; Gladiators have won eight; Zalmi have won five; one ended in no-result):
The two teams have produced some of the most epic battles in the play-off stages over the course of the four seasons.
The rivalry between these two sides kicked-off when they met in the first-ever Qualifier of the HBL PSL – in 2016 – when Gladiators beat Zalmi by one run to secure a berth in the final. Entering that contest the two sides had honours even as both had come out victorious once in the two group matches.
They met again in the 2017 edition’s Qualifier with the result eerily the same – Gladiators’ victory by one run.
Zalmi, three days later, got better of Karachi Kings in the second Eliminator to secure a berth in the final and subsequently secured their first-ever HBL PSL title by beating Gladiators.
The next season, they faced off in an Eliminator after Zalmi and Gladiators finished at third and fourth spots respectively. The margin of the result was the same – one run – as in the previous two editions’ Qualifiers, but this time Zalmi were at the winning end.
Similar to the 2017 edition, the two teams met four times in the 2019 edition. Gladiators secured a 10-run win in the Qualifier and four days later they beat Zalmi, this time by eight wickets, to secure their maiden HBL PSL title.
Major players in the two squads for the HBL PSL 2020 season:
With an aim to add another HBL PSL trophy in their cabinet, the two sides have assembled strong squads.
Peshawar Zalmi boast best performers of the HBL PSL in their side in the likes of Kamran Akmal and Wahab Riaz who have the most runs (1,286 in 47 matches) and the most wickets (65 in 45 matches) respectively. Zalmi’s batting unit is enhanced by the inclusion of Shoaib Malik - who has 2,309 runs in T20I cricket, the most for Pakistan – and Tom Banton, who on the back of prolific white-ball form made ODI and T20I debuts for England recently.
Kieron Pollard, Darren Sammy and Imam-ul-Haq, who finished as the fifth-highest run-getter in the last edition with 341 runs including four half-centuries, form the core of Zalmi’s batting unit.
In the supplementary category Zalmi have included the exciting young opening batsman Haider Ali who represented Pakistan U19 in the recently concluded ICC U19 Cricket World Cup played in South Africa.
The bowling unit will be spearheaded by Wahab. Hasan Ali, who will make return to competitive cricket after recovering from injury, and left-armer Rahat Ali will further add depth to the pace-bowling.
Mohammad Mohsin is an exciting inclusion in the Zalmi line-up. The 26-year-old leggie took nine wickets at an average of 19.44 in the National T20 Cup in Faisalabad in October last year.
They also have in their ranks two exciting teenage bowlers, left-arm-spinner Aamir Ali and fast-bowler Amir Khan, both featured in Pakistan’s U19 World Cup side that finished third in South Africa.
Gladiators also have an equally exciting line-up with Shane Watson, who was the player-of-the-tournament in 2019, expected to deliver goods once again.
Jason Roy, one of the most successful white-ball top-order batsmen in international cricket, Umar Akmal, Ahmed Shehzad and captain Sarfaraz Ahmed form the batting core.
In the bowling department all eyes will be on Naseem Shah, who will make his maiden HBL PSL appearance, and Mohammad Hasnain, who delivered the fastest ball of the previous edition and took three wickets for 30 runs in the final at Karachi’s National Stadium last year.
The two youngsters will have the support of left-arm quick Tymal Mills, while the spin-attack will be led by Mohammad Nawaz and Fawad Ahmed.
They also have an U19 rookie in their ranks. Karachi-born Aarish Ali Khan also represented Pakistan U19 in South Africa. He has the pedigree to make an impression as an emerging force this season.
With the HBL PSL being held in Pakistan for the first time, the excitement is at its peak and it continues to grow with every passing day. When these two sides come face-to-face, the fans are expected to be served with thrilling matches.
And, if history is any measure, they will be in the playoffs, with the matches expected to shatter nerves again especially if they are decided on the last ball.
Squads:
Peshawar Zalmi:
Platinum – Hasan Ali, Kieron Pollard (from 7 March) and Wahab Riaz
Diamond – Kamran Akmal, Tom Banton, Shoaib Malik and Carlos Brathwaite (till 7 March)
Gold – Darren Sammy, Imam-ul-Haq and Liam Dawson

Emerging – Amir Khan and Amir Ali
Supplementary – Liam Livingstone and Haider Ali

Jack Unterweger: Poet of Death
In June 1994, in Graz, Austria, the trial began. Unterweger as an Austrian citizen was to be tried of all murders in Los Angeles, Prague and Austria. The man himself played to the gallery and utilised his well-honed skills of manipulation by appealing to the jury and the public’s sense of fair play. When he admitted he was ‘a rat’ and an ‘inveterate liar’ who ‘consumed women rather than love them’ how could they fail to dismiss such self-deprecating honesty?
What the defence did not count on was the response to such questioning from the prosecution based on psychiatric reports and the FBI investigative analysis that pointed out that a man such as Unterweger was not rational. As someone who suffered from uncontrolled compulsions and fetishes, it really didn’t matter what status he held in life. He’d still kill, as it was an addiction.
Further evidence such as the crime lab reports on the ligature knots; Blanka Bockova’s hair strand recovered in the BMW and red fibres found on Brunhilde Massar’s body from Unterweger’s scarf, finally added up to a compelling case against the defendant.
But Unterweger was still unrepentant, "I'm counting on your acquittal," he said, "because I am not the culprit. Your decision will affect not only me but the real killer, who is laughing up his sleeve".
Two and a half months later even the most supportive press of Unterweger began to change their views. The devious sociopath also began to lose support from the literary establishment and his girlfriend, Bianca Mrak.
Jack Unterweger was found guilty of nine counts of murder; the Prague victim, all three Los Angeles victims and five in Austria. The court sentenced him to life in prison.
The final twist in this macabre and dark tale is that Unterweger, being a man who like many serial killers had a preoccupation with control, could not handle not being in the driver’s seat. He took the opportunity while guards were out of sight to hang himself using the string from his prison jumpsuit. Ironically he used the same knot he had so cruelly practised on his victims.

Home Features The Game & Watch: Super Mario Bros. is Nintendo’s classic series at its portable best
The Game & Watch: Super Mario Bros. is Nintendo’s classic series at its portable best
By Darryn Bonthuys
Posted on 4 weeks ago
Can you believe that Nintendo’s greatest mascot, a portly plumber with a plucky can-do attitude, has been caving in spines and taking names for 35 years now? Mario arguably helped turn Nintendo into a powerhouse brand, and through the decades he has been the defacto mustachioed face of the company.
An enduring beacon of positivity, gracing every single platform that the company has released games on and being a measuring stick for quality in the first-party video game space. What’s remarkeable is that Mario’s first adventures are still as playable today as they were in the 1980s. That magic formula of running, jumping, and collecting coins has stood the test of time, and has been at its best when it hasn’t been tethered to a TV.
Pretty much every Nintendo handheld has been home to a bit of the ol’ run ‘n jump Mario games, but the latest adaptation may just be the most retro take yet. In celebration of Mario, Nintendo has released the Game & Watch: Super Mario Bros. system, which is a tiny handheld that packs in the first two Super Mario Bros. games (and the Japanese Super Mario Bros. 2, which were known as the Lost Levels in the west), as well the classic Game & Watch game Ball.
It’s simple, it’s adorable, and it’s beautiful. It’s also absolutely tiny, giving me an ego boost for once when my delicate digits caress the handheld, but I love it. Make no mistake, the Game & Watch is an expensive curio but at least it’s brilliantly crafted. Nintendo’s odd colour scheme of dull gold and crimson red stand out beautifully, the D-pad is sublime and the screen blasts your eyeballs with vivid colours as your muscle memory kicks in on World 1-2 in Super Mario Bros.
There’s more to it, such as the built-in clock that contains all manner of Easter Eggs and nearly three dozens animations, and you’re able to easily grab around 7-8 hours of playtime from the device and you can charge it via USB-C, as Bowser intended. And that’s it really. Outside from the modding community that already has Doom working on the Game & Watch, the internals hide a more limited library of distractions.
As a portable time-waster, I do adore it though. It’s just big enough to comfortably fir in my pocket, having a few rounds of Mario is still enjoyable, and I don’t get tired of looking at it. The Game & Watch is more of a neat collectible than anything else, and on that level it succeeds as a beautifully-styled retro reminder of how far gaming has come in the decades since Mario ate his first world-altering mushroom.
If you want one for yourself, you can grab it from the Nintendo store for R1299.

Cressi was originally founded in 1946 as a diving company rich in innovation and product development.
An entirely family owned and operated Italian brand, Cressi was the first company to produce items such as the diving mask with dedicated nose pocket, and the adjustable open heel fins.
Since the beginning, all Cressi products have been designed and manufactured in Italy using Cressi’s own machinery and equipment. To this day, Cressi remains an innovator in product research, development and manufacturing.
Cressi is a full 360 degree water sports company, as it manufactures its own products for Diving, Spear Fishing, Snorkeling and Swimming.
The first Cressi swimming goggles were produced in the 1950’s and were called the Nuoto Goggles.
Throughout the course of the company’s history, Cressi has continued to improve and expand their swimming product collection.
In fact, many European swimming champions have used Cressi swimming products such as short swim fins and goggles during the 1950's and 1960's. Since the company’s beginning, Swim products have been an important part of the Cressi product range.
In 2005, Cressi established a separate brand specifically for swimming products. Cressi Swim was established and offered a full range of swimming products and apparel including swim masks, goggles, fins, caps, swim suits and accessories.
In recent years, products such as the Cobra Swim Mask and the Palau Short Adjustable fins represent Cressi’s continued emphasis on product development and innovation.

Wild North-West Heli-Adventure
Looking westwards from Edenhouse’s gardens the view stretches to the mysterious mountains of the Kahurangi National Park, a vast wilderness area which holds its secrets close, the best known only to a select few. Land beside a pristine glacial mountain lake or perhaps on Mt Olympus- a fantastical mountain, decorated with other-worldly rock pinnacles. It became “south of Rivendell”, a place the heroic hobbits traversed in Peter Jackson’s multi-Oscar winning adaptation of the Lord of the Rings. Other landings can include a beach on the rugged West Coast or the spectacular Wharariki Beach, the northern-most tip of the South Island. Nearby is Farewell Spit, the longest natural sandbar in the world. Fly over Golden Bay and the Abel Tasman National Park and appreciate the diversity of this striking region.
This unforgettable adventure of around 5 hours includes 2 hours of flying time and 3 landings. It starts and finishes on the helipad in the Edenhouse gardens.

After 8-month haitus, higher education institutions reopen for final year PG students, researchers
Based on the feedback from stakeholders, and as per the guidelines issued by the University Grants Commission on November 5, colleges and universities can be opened from December 2
After an eight month hiatus, higher education institutions in the state opened their doors for final years postgraduate students and researchers on Wednesday. In-person classes will resume for medical colleges and final-year undergraduate students of arts and science,engineering, agriculture, fisheries and veterinary programmes in allcolleges and universities from December 7.
Based on the feedback from stakeholders, and as per the guidelines issued by the University Grants Commission on November 5, colleges and universities can be opened from December 2. After popular feedbackagainst the reopening, especially after the festival season when asecond wave of Covid-19 was anticipated in Tamil Nadu, the government decided to reopen only for a small segment of students on a trial basis.The reopening would apply only for research students and final year students of postgraduate courses in science and for technology courses.
Similarly, college hostels would be opened from December 2 only forthe above students as long as colleges follow the Standard Operating Procedures which would also be issued by the government later. While colleges were held following safety protocols, many students struggled to reach their campuses on time"My bus got cancelled due to the Nivar Cyclone. I have been stuck in Kochi and I was unable to make it to the reopening," said N Sethu, a final year M Phil student from the University of Madras. Another student who lives in the outskirts of Chennai, said that she waited for over an hour for her usual bus to show up and reached her college late. "There have been some timing and frequency changes I was unaware of with respect to buses," said a researcher from the Indian Instituteof Technology of Madras. She added that while the majority of the classes or meetings are held online, researchers need to go to college to only access the labs.

What is a Savings Group?
Below is a helpful description of the Savings Group program we support. In Ethiopia, the program is called Self-Help Groups, which can be misleading if you don’t realize the ‘self’ means one’s self, the group, and the community all looking to themselves and God rather than outsiders to pursue and achieve their potential.

Good News Transforming Lives for Good
Stories of freedom and hope are coming from the countryside in Southeastern Ethiopia as the Good News of Jesus Christ is reaching hungry hearts and minds. Our church planting partners are teaching Christians to bless their neighbors, sharing God’s word with them in an open and gracious manner. When appropriate, believers are praying for others with afflictions and demon possession. In the case of Chiko…

Finding Li-Ion battery degradation sweet spots can be an economic trade-off
Published: 20 Sep 2018, 17:05

The fact that lithium-ion batteries experience degradation over time with use should not necessarily be a limiter for their widespread use in stationary storage systems, but requires long-term strategies for their management.
Lithium-ion batteries of various types constitute the vast majority of advanced energy storage systems being connected to grids around the world today. At the same time, it is also becoming understood that using these advanced batteries to reap maximum environmental and economic benefit for grids and distributed energy systems comes at the price of maintaining the batteries themselves to give the longest lifetime or most effective use.
In the latest edition of PV Tech Power (Vol.16), this was the subject tackled in “Is that battery cycle worth it? Maximising energy storage lifecycle value with advanced controls”, a feature article from Dr Andres Cortes and Ben Kaun of the US Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI), the non-profit research group advising groups across the utility sector and beyond into the generation, delivery and use of electricity.
The article first appeared in the Energy-Storage.news-curated ‘Storage & Smart Power’ section of PV Tech Power and while you can download it as part of the technical journal, we’ve also uploaded the piece in full as a blog on the ESN site, here.
“Battery storage degradation typically manifests as a loss of energy retention capacity, reduction in power delivery capability and efficiency, and eventually need for replacement of batteries,” the pair wrote.
“Depending on the state of a battery system, replacement might imply only the change of few worn out modules or a total replacement.”
There are many factors influencing degradation in lithium batteries, including the average state of charge of a battery’s lifetime and the depth of charge-discharge cycles. Depending on which grid (front-of-meter) or behind-the-meter services a stationary battery is deployed to provide, often stacking several applications or services from one system, the lifetime of a battery system's cells will vary with wear and tear, as the EPRI authors explore in some detail in the article.
The trade-off
However, as the authors also point out, there can be a trade-off in terms of the economics of battery systems versus consideration of degradation and its long-term impacts. In other words, if a project owner is earning more than enough revenues to cover the cost of augmenting and replacing cells over time, a decision could be made to allow the degradation to occur, factored into the economic and technical modelling of projects from their design stage onwards. EPRI has created StorageVET (Storage Value Evaluation Tool) for the purpose of evaluating such opportunities and their attendant cost.
The concept of this trade-off was alluded to by Steve Fludder, CEO of technology provider and system integrator NEC Energy Solutions (NEC ES), in a recent interview with Energy-Storage.news.
“Think of a battery as a finite resource that allows you to put electrons in and take them out in a finite fashion. You can actually calculate how many electrons can go in and out over the lifetime of the battery before it degrades to say 60% and it’s really proper to do some type of augmentation at that point,” Fludder said.
Fludder said that using ever-evolving data platforms and artificial intelligence, NEC ES – which uses batteries from a range of suppliers – is able to create models for degradation which are becoming “ultra-high fidelity”.
“That means that we can really push the operation of the system to its limits, that we can basically put the system into overdrive at times, when the revenue opportunity in the market presents itself. So when the spreads are wide, we’re going to enable our customers to drive this system to the absolute physical maximum that that system could possibly operate, even if it accelerates degradation. That trade-off may be worthwhile, of augmenting or replacing cells.”
Matching up the modelling of degradation with the way the physical characteristics of the battery asset respond to its method of operation will allow NEC ES and ultimately its customers to “make decisions in real-time in the market, based on the actual revenue opportunities” available, will enable battery storage project owners and operators to “balance the economic opportunity with how to use the capital asset”, Fludder said.

What is peripheral perfusion?
Written by: Adelaide Damoah
baby foot and thumb image by Robert Kelly from Fotolia.com
The word perfusion in medicine relates to the delivery of arterial blood full of oxygen and nutrients to the tissues via the blood vessels. Peripheral perfusion looks specifically at the delivery of blood to peripheral tissues, that is, in the extremities of the body, such as feet and hands.
Monitoring peripheral perfusion in critically ill patients allows medical staff and care givers to judge the effects of treatments and to allow for early intervention in case peripheral perfusion is measured as being too low.
Why It Is Measured
Sometimes during cardiac failure and shock blood is redistributed to the vital organs and away from the peripheral tissues, resulting in decreased peripheral perfusion. Therefore, low peripheral perfusion can be an early indicator of cardiac failure or shock and can allow for early and life saving intervention.
Clinical Signs of Low Peripheral Perfusion
Clinical signs include pale, mottled and clammy skin, at the extremities.
Pulse Oxiometry
Peripheral perfusion is usually measured every two to four hours during a patient's stay in hospital. It can be measured as the amount of oxygen in the blood calculated as a percentage and is referred to as oxygen saturation. This can be done using a technique called pulse oxiometry. Pulse oxiometry measures the oxygen saturation of the blood using infrared light. The pulse oxiometer is usually a small device placed over a finger attached to a medical monitor so that staff can monitor oxygen saturation. It is a technique used for most critically ill patients and those with trauma and is even a compulsory requirement during surgery in some countries.
Peripheral perfusion is usually measured every two to four hours during a patient's stay in hospital.
The pulse oxiometer is usually a small device placed over a finger attached to a medical monitor so that staff can monitor oxygen saturation.
Peripheral Warmth
When blood supply decreases, so does the temperature of the skin. Therefore, peripheral warmth is also an important indicator of peripheral perfusion in children and newborns. The care giver would typically check the temperature of the foot at regular intervals by touch.
Peripheral Warmth Research in Adults
Studies in adults looking at toe temperature as a measure of peripheral perfusion have demonstrated a direct correlation between the two. According to the journal of Continuing Nurse Education, a study of 50 adults showed that a direct correlation between toe temperature and peripheral perfusion was proven to exist and they were even able to predict death rates based on early measurement of toe temperature.
Peripheral Warmth Research in Children
The same article goes on to talk about evidence for peripheral warmth as a measure of peripheral perfusion in children and states that while the literature is limited, similar results to the adult studies were found.

BRICS New Development Bank approve renewables loans
In international news, the BRICS countries’ New Development Bank has approved $811 million in its first round of loans for the development of renewable energy projects in the member states.
The New Development Bank was launched last year in Shanghai by the BRICS member States comprising of Brazil, China, India and South Africa. The bank has said clean energy will be part of its core focus.
The media reported that out the five states, Brazil’s Banco Nacional de Desenvolvimento Economico e Social obtained the biggest loan, with a total of $300 million credit line that will be directed toward constructing 600MW of green energy capacity.
Coming second was India’s Canara Bank, which scooped $250 million, from that amount $75 million is said to be scheduled for 500MW of renewable energy development.
BRICS New Development Bank split loans
[quote]On the other hand, according to Bloomberg the South African public utility Eskom was allocated a $180 million credit line for electrical infrastructure upgrades, including power lines that can transmit 670MW and transform 500MW of renewable energy generation.
Likewise, China’s Shanghai Lingang Hongbo New Energy Development secured a $81 million loan for 100MW of rooftop solar. The media also reported that the bank is currently reviewing loans for Russia. These loans are said to range from a period of between 12 to 20 years.
In earlier reports, it had emerged that demand for renewable energy funding in four out of the five BRICS nations namely Brazil, India, China and South Africa, is among the highest in the world.

Wimbledon Is Upon Us And For Once It Isn't Raining!
On the hottest July day in the UK for years, you can't help but feel sorry for those poor tennis players at Wimbledon SW19, slugging it out in the blistering heat to try and progress to the next round in this most famous of all tennis tournaments. The competitors need to be at the pinnacle of physical fitness to be in with a chance of succeeding and once they step out on to the hallowed grass of the All England club, they must find a way to keep their cool as the temperature rises!
With prize money ranging from £29,000 for each first round loser, to the staggering sum of £1.88m for the Championship winners (making it the highest paying grand slam in the World), you can see why each match is so "hotly" contested.
The total amount of prize money on offer this year is £26,750,000, (an 8% rise on last year), more than enough for any player to buy him or herself a comfy pad in the area to live in and/or rent out next year. Making it a rather easier way to earn a crust, I should imagine!
And where better for anyone to look for an SW19 property than at the websites of two of our clients that service this postcode, cound.co.uk and longbowproperty.london. With both sales and lettings properties available to purchase or rent, you too could become a member of the exclusive South West London set and by next year, could be eating your strawberries and cream within earshot of the grunts of Sharapova and the first serves of Andy Murray!
While you are browsing for property, take a good look at their websites, designed and built by us here at Estates IT. They also run their successful businesses using our award winning PCHomes software, which is a fully integrated sales, lettings and property management software suite designed to help you manage your business better.
