"A Joplin man accused of beating his 10-year-old son September 13, waived his formal arraignment Wednesday and pleaded not guilty.\n\nA condition of the bond is that he have no contact with his children.\n\nThe next hearing for Amin on the felony child abuse charge is scheduled for 1:30 p.m. October 4 before Judge Joseph Hensley.\n\nAccording to the probable cause statement, the 10-year-old's sister Joplin police officers that the beating occurred after Amin learned that the boy had said a bad word at school two days earlier and had lied to him about it.\n\nAmin \"kicked (the boy) in the stomach, hit (him) several times and used a phone charger to hit (him) which resulted in bruising on his back,\" according to the probable cause statement, which also indicated that in the past Amin had pointed a loaded gun at his children \"threatening to shoot them and used a taser on all three of them.\"\n\nI guess he will have to kill someone before they take this serious. I imagine he will go back into the same home and continue the abuse.\nThe laws need to be changed."

"Behavioral economists have written a lot about sunk costs. The idea is pretty simple: once people have invested in an effort – in time or money – they stick with that effort longer than is otherwise justified. They don’t want to feel like they’ve wasted their investment, so they continue to invest even when pulling out of the effort would be in their best interests.\nIn his book, The Power Broker, Robert Caro describes how the central figure in his book, Robert Moses, makes use of the psychology of sunk costs. He would obtain funding for an ambitious new public project – perhaps a park or highway – while dramatically underestimating how much the project would ultimately cost. Using the initial money, he would dig trenches, build foundations, etc. When the money would run out, he had legislators exactly where he wanted them:\n\nOnce they had authorized that small initial expenditure and you had spent it, they would not be able to avoid giving you the breast when you asked for it. How could they? If they refused to give you the rest of the money, what they had given you would be wasted, and that would make them look bad in the eyes of the public. And that they said you had misled them, well, they were not supposed to be misled. If they had been misled, that would mean they haven’t investigated the projects thoroughly, and had therefore been derelict in their own duty. The possibilities for a polite but effective form of political blackmail were endless. Once the legislature gave the money to start a project, it would be virtually forced to give you the money to finish it.\n\nThe field of behavioral economics did not exist at the time Robert Moses utilized these brilliant tactics. He was a man well ahead of his time."

"So yesterday Apple released their Q3 2018 earnings report with some pretty impressive results.\n\nYes, iPhone still performs better than many other categories at Apple. Apple sold whooping 41.3 million iPhone units in the quarter compared to 41 million to the same quarter a year ago.\n\nI’ve heard people saying that it’s a small improvement over the same quarter last year. But hey, 41.3 million units sold.. that is 41.3 million! That’s a figure that many companies would die to have in their businesses. I know, we’re here talking about world’s biggest valued company so everything we talk about Apple has to be big. I say.. give them a slack. There is so much a company can perform better specially when it is this successful and this rich.\n\nAlso we should understand, usually around this period people slow down buying on Apple products knowing there is something new and shining round the corner. September is the month where Apple unveils their new products, including new iPhones, iPads, Apple Watch and others.\n\nWe’re thrilled to report Apple’s best June quarter ever, and our fourth consecutive quarter of double-digit revenue growth. Our results were driven by continued strong sales of iPhone, Services, and Wearables, and we are very excited about the products and services in our pipeline.\n\nApple reported revenues of $51.3 billion with net profits of $11.5 billion, that is 17 percent increase year over year.\n\nAside from iPhone being the biggest contributor to the revenues, the other growing segment is Services which includes App purchases, iTunes, Apple Music, cloud and others.\n\nSurprising, the other company that made headlines this week is apparently Huawei.\n\nYou ask why? That is because Huawei stole Apple’s position of being number two in the U.S with 54.2 million phones sold behind only behemoth Samsung who are still number one with 71.5 millions units.\n\nNevertheless, the industry is now looking at Apple who is expected to hit $1 trillion in the coming months since it’s currently sitting at whooping $980.13 billion. The only other company in the 1 trillion race is Amazon with market cap of $868.04 billion."

"Over two decades he became the brand that he is today, despite numerous whispers of wrongdoings.\n\nIn 1997, a spiritual leader started a column in Ananda Vikatan, a weekly Tamil magazine published out of Chennai. Vikatan was a big name in the world of Tamil news and reporting – and still is, in terms of its reach and circulation – so the decision to hand over precious column space to a so-called “guru” raised a few eyebrows.\n\nBut the decision paid off. The column, titled “Manase Relax Please”, or \"mind, relax please\", was authored first in 1997 and then again in 2003 by Swami Sukhabodhananda, and did so well that Vikatan commissioned the column again in 2004, this time helmed by a little-known “guru”. Spiritual advice was clearly good for business, and why wouldn’t a magazine want to cash in on it?\n\nThe writer of Vikatan’s second spiritual series, this time titled “Athanaikkum Aasaipadu”, or the desire for everything, was a man who already had a staunch group of followers but was yet to attain the national, and international, prominence that he has today.\n\nThis man was Jaggi Vasudev.\n\nSukhabodhananda’s column might have generated interest in the idea of spiritual writing for Vikatan’s readers, but the traction Vasudev’s writings got was all his own doing.\n\nAnd Vasudev was quick to capitalise on it. In September 2007, he launched a monthly magazine called Kaattu Poo, whose readership mainly comprised his followers.\n\nHis reputation as a thoughtful, spiritual advisor to Vikatan’s lakhs of readers was established. And three years after his column began, he was also building a political bank of support.\n\nIn 2006, M Karunanidhi, the head of the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam, was chief minister of Tamil Nadu. Karunanidhi lived according to the Dravidian principles of atheism and rationality, critical of seers and saints, but Vasudev seemed to be the exception to this rule.\n\n“He was introduced to Karunanidhi by senior journalist A Kamaraj from Nakkheeran,” said “Savukku” Shankar, who claimed he had “personally verified” this, though Kamaraj denied the allegation to Newslaundry.\n\nKamaraj was the associate editor at Nakkheeran news magazine in 1999 when forest brigand Veerappan kidnapped Kannada film actor Rajkumar. The magazine’s founder and editor Gopal was sent by the DMK government to the forests of Sathyamangalam to negotiate with Veerappan, with Kamaraj acting as his liaison on the outside. As a result, sources told Newslaundry, Kamaraj grew close to the DMK chief during this time.\n\nKamaraj was also a follower of Vasudev, who then asked that he be introduced to Karunanidhi. “Kamaraj introduced him, and also convinced Karunanidhi to take part in an Isha Foundation event at Anna University,” Shankar said.\n\nThe event in question took place on September 23, 2007, at Chennai’s Anna University. It was a tree plantation ceremony attended by both Vasudev and Karunanidhi and in a speech, the latter showered praise on the former, saying the world would become a better place if people followed in Vasudev’s footsteps when it came to taking care of the environment.\n\nJournalist V Anbalagan told this reporter that Vasudev had “no political access” until he met Karunanidhi in 2006. “Vasudev used to come to Chennai to meet Karunanidhi,” he said. “Once he got access to the DMK’s close circles, his reach became widespread. Before he came in contact with the DMK, no politician even entered the Isha Foundation.”\n\nHe added: “But once he got into political circles, there was no looking back.” Politicians aside, Vasudev soon collected a bevy of filmstars, bureaucrats and businessmen as his followers.\n\nKamaraj, however, flatly denied initiating a meeting between Vasudev and Karunanidhi. “I am a journalist, “ he told Newslaundry, “who had interacted with both the DMK chief and Jaggi Vasudev, as I have done with major personalities of the state. To attribute motives to such interactions is belittling, to say the least.”\n\nFrom print media and politicians, television was a natural step in Sadhguru’s road to success.\n\nIn 2008, Tamil entertainment channel Star Vijay launched a new show named after Vasudev’s Vikatan column. Athainaikkum Aasaipadu began broadcasting for a half-hour slot on Sunday mornings, with Vasudev sitting down with the guest of his choice to chat about spiritualism, social issues, yoga, culture, global warming, love, divorce, even whether it was okay to eat non-vegetarian food.\n\nHis guests were all celebrities in their chosen fields, across music, literature, cinema and politics, including actors Vivek, R Parthiban and Crazy Mohan; Carnatic vocalist Sudha Raghunathan; and even Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi leader Thol Thirumavalavan. Vasudev played host and the interviews were filmed in his ashram headquarters outside Coimbatore.\n\n“The programme was unique,” said an Isha volunteer, on the condition of anonymity. “A spiritual guru interviewed by famous personalities – it was an interesting thing to watch. It helped Sadhguru become more prominent across Tamil Nadu.”\n\nIn November 2010, Isha Foundation launched its own version of Athanaikkum Aasaipadu, called In Conversation with the Mystic. The concept remained the same, but the programme was shot in front of a live audience and the glamour quotient was pumped up: guests included names like Juhi Chawla, Anupam Kher, Kiran Bedi, Kiran Mazumdar Shaw, Barkha Dutt and Arnab Goswami. Shekhar Kapur was the first guest to sit down with Vasudev.\n\nOver the years, Bollywood stars like Ranveer Singh and Kangana Ranaut, and cricketer Virendra Sehwag also sat down to converse with the mystic. The programme is a ticketed event, and Vasudev soon launched companion programmes too, such as Youth and Truth where he would interact with college students at renowned universities, from India’s IIMs to the London School of Economics.\n\nBut not all these programmes go smoothly; in 2018, during an episode of Youth and Truth in Hyderabad’s Nalsar University, students began asking him questions which clearly took Vasudev by surprise. One student asked whether permission had been taken for the Isha Foundation to build through protected elephant corridors in Tamil Nadu, and asked him why he said women could not enter certain temples.\n\nPrerna Dhoop, a former assistant professor at Nalsar who was present during the event, pointed out that Nalsar’s students are “trained in critical thinking”.\n\n“When they asked questions on complex issues, the answers were extremely simplistic and one-sided,” she said. “This event...reflects how our youth is exposed only to Sadhguru’s version of reality...While having considerable control over important communication channels, including print and social media, he also has the support of the ruling class and has significant influence within the government. This rare combination of power, prestige and privilege can create disaster in our liberal democracy and diverse society.\"\n\nSince February 2021, Vasudev has also had a regular radio show on Big FM, titled Dhun Badal ke toh Dekho, where he delivered his opinion on topics like health, spirituality, youth, relationships and religion. Newslaundry could not verify the terms of Big FM’s collaboration with Vasudev or Isha Foundation.\n\nBut at the end of the day, Vasudev no longer needed magazine columns or TV shows to promote his brand; he was doing it himself. The internet was now building brands and reputations, and Vasudev was quick to jump on the bandwagon, with millions of followers across platforms, and across languages. His foundation had centres across India and even the world, and a network of 4,600 full-time volunteers and nine million part-time volunteers.\n\nVolunteers are not paid for their work; they qualify to work for Isha by going through a mandatory programme of “inner engineering”. Their work for the foundation includes social media, IT development, brand strategy, writing content, shooting and editing videos, organising events, fund raising, and a lot more, including day-to-day work like cooking and cleaning in the ashram.\n\n“All the volunteers work free of cost,” said a former Isha volunteer who left the foundation due to family commitments, though she often visits. “Many of them are experts in their fields and provide their free services for the promotion of Sadhguru.”\n\n“Isha Yoga” is one of Vasudev’s biggest products, purportedly “designed by Sadhguru” and defined as a “comprehensive system that integrates the core of yogic science and presents it for the modern human being”.\n\nPrabhakhar was a spiritual guru and yoga teacher who devised Siddha Samadhi Yoga in 1974 in Bengaluru. He had studied under Maharishi Mahesh Yogi in Switzerland before returning to India. Vasudev studied under Prabhakar in Gommatagiri near Mysore in 1984.\n\n“Jaggi and I learned Siddha Samadhi Yoga from Rishi Prabhakar together at Gommatagiri near Mysore,” said an Andhra Pradesh based yoga teacher who had trained with Vasudev. “Jaggi joined guruji [Prabhakar] in 1984...He met his wife there; she was a volunteer and trainee.”\n\nVasudev in the middle row, third from left.\n\nVasudev sitting on the ground, third from right.\n\nVasudev had “no previous association” with yoga until he trained in Siddha Samadhi Yoga, the source said, and then went on to teach Prabhakar’s yoga in Hyderabad, Bengaluru and Mysore between 1986 and 1987. “Guruji then sent Jaggi to Coimbatore to establish a centre,” he said. “But when he went there, he separated from guruji and began his own Isha Yoga.” Isha Foundation was set up in 1992.\n\nSubramanian Reddy, a Siddha Samadhi Yoga teacher, said, “Jaggi Vasudev was among the finest teachers of Siddha Samadhi Yoga. He was also close to guruji. But he suddenly broke off with him and started teaching yoga in Coimbatore .Whatever Sadhguru teaches has been taken from Rishi Prabhakar’s courses.”\n\nUpdate: The translation of \"Athanaikkum Aasaipadu\" has been changed to \"desire for everything\". \"Manase, relax please\" has been translated as \"mind, relax please\". It's also been clarified that journalist Gopal was sent to negotiate with Veerappan by the DMK government.\n\nThis is the second in a three-part series.",

"Bitcoin continues to move sideways as the week progresses. The benchmark cryptocurrency was pushed back from $40,000 levels and has been unable to bounce back to previous highs. However, BTC has been showing resilience as the traditional market seems to trend lower.\n\nRelated Reading | Where Ethereum and Bitcoin Headed After Musk’s Tweet\n\nThe traditional market is facing major hurdles due to an increase in uncertainty coming out two fronts: the Russia-Ukraine conflict and the potential interest rates hike from the U.S. Federal Reserve (FED).\n\nAs a result, China’s stock market has experienced major losses over the past week. As a pseudonym analyst noted, equities from Mainland China saw a 3% loss yesterday alone. The situation has started presenting similarities to the 2008 economic crisis.\n\nHang Seng down nearly 5% only 5 mins into the session. Mainland down almost 3%. This coming off yesterday, the worst china session since ’08. At what point do you call it a a crisis?\n\nThe U.S. stock market, as represented by the S&P 500, has also seen losses and has been trending to the downside since the start of 2022.\n\nOver this period, Amazon presented a 15% loss, as did Apple, Microsoft an 18% loss, Tesla a 27%. These are only a few, but some of the strongest companies in traditional finances.\n\nIn the meantime, Bitcoin has displayed relative strength. Yes, it has been moving sideways but has held to its current levels despite the bearish price action in the stock market.\n\nBitcoin and equities were moving in tandem, operating as correlated assets. This is one of the narratives of this current cycle but seems to be losing strength as BTC’s price continues to defend its ground.\n\nBitcoin has been slowly moving upwards, even as traditional safe havens decline in short time frames. Gold has lost almost 2% of its value during today’s trading session, quickly after rallying north of $2,040.\n\nOver 5,000 BTC were used to take loans and open shorts since March 10. However, over the past 12 hours, the positions have been trending lower.\n\nAccording to datamish data, the BTC lent on Bitfinex is being returned, and the BTC borrowed by short sellers has dropped to 2,481, a drop of 49.5% in the past 24 hours. pic.twitter.com/fB4hSYO7nn\n\nMaybe these unprotected shorts were long in a different crypto exchange, maybe they closed their shorts as they noticed BTC’s price current price action.\n\nIn this current scenario, driven by fear due to the war in Ukraine and of more inflationary expansion, Bitcoin has seen an increase in its number of addresses with balances over $1,000.\n\nMore people seem to be using BTC to potentially hedge against the consequences of an extended conflict in Europe, to easily transport wealth between borders, to secure everyday items when banks collapsed.\n\nThese dangers are materializing in some parts of the world sending a warning to everyone paying attention. The need for BTC has never been more real."

"Post news RSS Sir, You Are Being Hunted... On IndieDB!\n\nHello! We're on IndieDB, did you notice? We'll be keeping our IndieDB pages on par with all the latest Sir, You Are Being Hunted news from our blog from now on so you can look forward to articles about the development process, screenies, videos and more... there will probably be some posts about tea as well. Mmm tea.\n\nHello! How are you? We've been quiet. That's because we've been so busy.\n\nThis month, which has been our busiest ever - among other stuff which we'll get to - we've continued to work on UI implementation. You can see a shot from that in the image roll.",
null,
"We think you'll agree it's splendid and proper. The sliders and buttons you can see on the shot don't represent the final cut of tweakable landscape/world features you'll be presented with when you generate a world, but you get the idea. Soon we'll be adding environmental knobs and levers for weather and day/night cycle speed, checkboxes for enemy types, you'll be able to adjust the number of pieces of the Strange Device you have to find, stuff like that. Basically we want to give you the tools to tailor the experience to your own liking. Because that's the neat think about generating your game world procedurally. This new functionality has thrown up a few new, if not unexpected, challenges. For example, one of the ways we make our procedurally generated islands 'feel' British is by lining any roads with walls and hedges. If you don't live here, a quick Google-drive around pretty much any rural part of the UK will reveal that this sort of lining is an iconic and instantly recognisable part of our landscape.",
null,
"The way we do this is to first place villages, then connect them with roads, then suck the field cells around the road segments into line to create coherent boarders of walls, hedges, fences and so on. Combined with some other cleverness, you end up with a sort of Platonic British Countryside. The essence of the place without actually being a 1:1 simulation so to speak. A distilled impression of the UK. You can tell we're very proud of it...\n\nNow, when you let a player get their wandering hands on the values and variables that dictate the make up of this world you inevitably run the risk of them breaking the balance. BUT THAT'S OK. We now have a bunch of preset values for various landscape 'themes' such as woody, farmland, fens, hills and so on, so that players get some guideline settings as a base before they start tweaking. You can just randomise everything of course, or just go with the themes – you'll still get a unique world each time – but we know people will get a kick out of fine-tuning the space they want to be mercilessly pursued in. Now that framework is in, we're starting to look at developing more varied environments. This essentially means adding new scenery objects (building types, flora etc) and textures for the landscape as well as additional region types. At the minute while all islands in the world are unique (and can in fact feel VERY different to play, an entirely forested island is not at all like one crammed with wheat fields...) they are still made up of the same things. Eventually we want you to be able to choose from sets of objects per island. So you might have a wilder north island, covered in conifers, shacks and wooden fences, but in the south you'd find industry and drystone walls, with smaller areas of broadleaved woodland instead. We're still messing with the fundamental nature of the world generation on a more basic level too. The way we randomise the distribution of villages is currently under scrutiny (Radial? Shaken grid? Something else? Hmm...) and we're constantly play-testing to see how these changes effect the feel of our islands.",
null,
null,
"In fact, what is more exciting, is that this has been the first month where we've actually been able to play Sir for extended periods as a standalone game outside the Unity IDE. We can't tell you how good this feels. To be able to double click a link on your desktop, see a presentable front end, load a game you generated with shiny UI sliders and started playing yesterday, then spend several hours terrified and fleeing for your life from your own creations is thrilling and a huge morale boost for the team. For the last few weeks Sir You Are Being Hunted feels like a 'proper game' to play, something helped by the recent inclusion of our sinister butler's voice over. Mr Walters has advice about the world, and implies a bit about what's been going on in this robot-haunted Britain. So much other stuff has come together this month listing it all would be... well it would be the DONE column of our Task List, but we're not going to show you that... But some highlights include: Working melee combat with axes! (excellent when combined with traps for those sweet, sweet stealth kills...). Improved Bot Audio! Spectacular Sunrises! Fully functioning Device Collecting system (including counter and depositing functionality! - this last thing basically makes current builds of Sir 'a game you can play with a goal and an end and everything'.)\n\nBeen looking forward to this.\n\nPlease milk your RPS cred for all its worth. STALKER is one of my favourite game series, and surviving the British countryside promises to be an even more horrifying experience than battling it out with twisted mutants and armed psychopaths in a nuclear hellscape, so I really want this to do well.\n\nPerhaps the sequel could be set Down Under?\n\nPlease, please release an open beta or alpha. You have no idea how much buzz it will generate.\n\nomg that art style, LOVE IT! keep it up and welcome to indiedb!"

"Normally when I see a films trailers boasting a “star studded” ensemble cast I think, bleh. Most of the time the bigger the names the more actors the more of a mess the film is. The recent Orient Express and El Royal are great examples of this. With that in mind, my expectations for this film were very low. Boy was I surprised! I laughed my ass off while being glued to my seat. This who done it was more like a who didn’t do it. And by it, I mean deliver a great performance. Jamie Lee Curtis and Christopher Plummer were both superb, outstanding work. Chris Evans, Don Johnson and Michael Shannon all play characters you’ve seen them play before and for that reason they were perfectly cast. Ana De Armas is not as big of a name and stands strong next to these heavyweight actors.\n\nSpeaking of heavyweights, lets address the Elephant in the room. Daniel Craig’s Louisiana accent…It’s bad. Some how even with a bad accent his character remains funny and likeable. The only actor on film that seemed to be missing somehow was Toni Collette. Her character just fell flat.\n\nThe plot moves along at a break neck pace and has so many twists and turns and hilarious moments there will be no time to pee. My advice, skip the soda. Also my advice, get to the theater to see this film! You won’t be unhappy!"

"Telenor has reported a 32% increase in its active Internet user base in India for the six months ended June 30, 2014.\n\nWhile the telco hasn’t disclosed any specific number on Uninor’s total Internet base, it’s worth noting that Telenor CEO Jon Frederik Baksaas had previously mentioned that 20% of Uninor’s customers in India were active data users.\n\nThe Norwegian telco also mentions that its Internet revenues in India grew by 42% in the last six months. It’s worth noting that Telenor focuses only on providing basic services in voice, SMS and basic Internet in the country and offer aggressive plans in these services.\n\nIn the previous quarter, Uninor had launched a new Internet strategy, focusing on affordable and service-based mobile Internet offers. As part of this new strategy, it had announced plans to offer Facebook at Rs 0.5 per hour and Rs. 1 for a day of WhatsApp.\n\n– ARPU: For the quarter ended June 30, 2014, Telenor reported a total ARPU (Average Revenue Per User) of Rs 108 for India region, up from Rs 106 in the previous quarter and Rs 97 in the same quarter last year. The telco attributes this increase to a significant growth in the number of its Internet users and improved quality of Uninor’s subscription base.\n\n– Average Minutes Per User declined to 449 minutes for the quarter, down 3.02% from 463 minutes in the previous quarter but up 5.4% from 426 minutes in the same quarter last year.",
null,
"– Telenor mentions that the revenue in local currencies in six operational circles increased by 46% year-on-year due to increased ARPU and a larger subscriber base.\n\n– Tanveer Mohammed was appointed as the COO of Uninor earlier this month. He replaced Ruza Sabanovic who is moving to Telenor’s Oslo headquarters as its Head of Group Technology.\n\n– Telenor also extended its partnership with the browser maker Opera Software, allowing Uninor and other Telenor subsidiaries to adopt Opera products into their offering. Through this, Uninor and other Telenor subsidiaries will have an option to offer Opera products like Opera Max, Opera Web Pass, Sponsored Web Pass and co-branded Opera Mini mobile browser to its subscribers.\n\n– Last month, Telenor group had sought for an approval from India’s Foreign Investment Promotion Board of India (FIPB) to increase its stake in Uninor to 100% from the existing 74% stake. The telco is planning to invest Rs 780 crore to acquire the remaining 26% stake owned by its Indian partner Lakshdeep Investments & Finance Pvt. Ltd. Telenor had earlier formed a joint venture with Lakshdeep called Telewings which provides telecom services in the country under the Uninor brand.\n\nSite re-deployment program: Telenor’s site re-deployment initiative for network expansion that was started in the previous quarter, has apparently experienced some delays during the quarter and is now expected to completed in the current quarter (Q3 2014) if all necessary permits are received in due time.\n\nIn Q4 2013, Telenor had stated plans of re-deploying 5,000 sites from closed down circles for geographical expansion in existing six circles over a five months period. This was expected to increase its population coverage in the current circles to 51% from from 42% earlier. By the end of Q2 2014, 1,372 new base stations have been deployed. Including the previous quarter, a total of 2,408 base stations have been deployed until now.\n\nTelenor group has reported total India revenues of NOK 1.02 billion (around Rs 991.8 crore as per current rates) for the quarter, registering a 11.1% increase from NOK 919 million in the previous quarter and a 40.3% growth from NOK 728 million in the same quarter last year. Telenor mentions that its Indian operations reported an organic revenue growth of 46% for the quarter.\n\nThe telco reported a loss of NOK 170 million (Rs 165.1 crore) for the quarter, as compared to NOK 1.53 billion profit in the previous quarter. However, note that the previous quarter profit includes a license fee offset of Rs 1,658 crore (NOK 1.7 billion) against the pending instalments for the spectrum acquired in November 2012 auctions. Without this, Uninor would’ve reported an operating loss of around NOK 169 million. It had reported a loss of NOK 107 million in the same quarter last year.\n\nThe EBITDA loss increased to NOK 106 million (Rs 102.96 crore) from NOK 83 million loss in the previous quarter but decreased from NOK 153 million in the same quarter last year."

"Putin Orders a New Vertical Take-Off Fighter Be Built. That Can Only Mean a Light Aircraft Carrier Is Next\n\nRussia will be building carriers -- light, cheap ones, for limited objectives -- not the massive, and massively expensive, US Navy-style 'supercarriers'\n\n“This work has, indeed, been included in the state armament program and is being conducted on the instruction of the supreme commander-in-chief. Now work is underway to develop conceptual models and prototypes,” the vice-premier said.\n\nI will comment in depth on this later but one thing which is absolutely clear–STOVL concept in Russian Navy will lead, inevitably, to some sort of a hybrid carrier akin to US Navy’s LHA-6 America-class amphibious assault ships but, in Russian case, most likely with greater emphasis on the air-wing and self-defense—even most likely making it closer to HMS Queen Elizabeth carrier of the Royal Navy conceptually.\n\nI can already hear sobbing and cries of desperation from all kinds of Russian navalists still enamored with the concept of Alfa-strikes and glory of the flying decks of CATOBAR carriers.\n\nI used to be a navalists myself but with the appearance of 4th generation submarines and weapons such as P-800 Onyx, I got cured and transferred from the shining light and inherent goodness of the Battle of Midway romanticism to a dark side of bookkeeping, cynical pragmatism and stand-off weapons. And I mean STAND-OFF weapons and we all know what they are.\n\nThe main question now thus is this: is co-existence of CATOBAR and STOVL carriers possible in Russian Navy? My answer is: why not. MiG-29K is a mature program and this excellent aircraft will eventually substitute venerable SU-33s on a fully upgraded Kuznetsov, which undergoes a major refit as I type this. As per new STOVL aircraft—let’s wait and see. When Yak-141 first appeared in late 1980s it was a revolutionary STOVL aircraft; who said that new one will not be.",

"Can Sioux tribes pull off largest ever clean energy project on tribal land?\n\nThe Oceti Wind Project aims to overcome financial, cultural and bureaucratic barriers to tribal renewable development.\nBy Frank Jossi\nEnergy News Network\nenergynews.us Lyle Jack had long wondered how his Oglala Sioux community could take advantage of its location on the remote, windswept plains of South Dakota. The tribal economic development manager dreamed of bringing wind energy development to the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation. Earlier this decade, he began sharing his vision with federal energy officials, wind investors and former politicians. Their advice: Go big. Offer a project over at least 500 megawatts. Seven years later, Jack is chairman of the Oceti Sakowin Power Project, an alliance of tribes on the cusp of developing the largest ever clean energy project on Native American land. The first phase is an $800 million, 570 megawatt wind project that will be more than 10 times the size of the largest existing wind farm on tribal land. By partnering with an experienced wind developer, Apex Clean Energy, and banding together with a unique governing model, the project backers hope to overcome the barriers that have conspired against other tribal energy projects and bring badly needed economic development do some of the nation’s poorest communities. “All our tribes suffer from poverty because of our location and resources,” Jack said. “We know Oceti will create jobs in construction and maintenance of the wind farms. Revenue from the project will create even more opportunities later.”\n\nA tragic history of tribal projects\n\nA 2015 U.S. Government Accountability Office report concluded that poor management by the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) has hindered energy development on tribal lands. “These shortcomings can increase costs and project development times, resulting in missed development opportunities, lost revenue, and jeopardized viability of projects,” it said. The Rosebud Sioux Tribe, one of the Oceti project partners, sought a wind lease deal with the BIA in 2008 for a 30 megawatt project. In the 18 months it took for the federal bureau to respond, the tribe lost two power purchase agreements it had with local utilities. A decade later, the project remains unbuilt. Auditors found the BIA lacks the data, staff, and skills to effectively manage energy development requests from tribes. The BIA’s weaknesses only serve to amplify other issues tribes face, from dealing with multiple jurisdictions and government agencies to inability to access tax credits. A November 2016 paper published by Sandia National Laboratories examines challenges faced by the Navajo Nation, considered to have the greatest renewable energy resources of any tribe in the country. It concludes that the tribe lacked the legal and technical capacity to develop renewable energy. Intratribal suspicions and infighting hurt projects, along with a lack of a coherent energy vision for the future. “Sometimes tribal politics and process become a barrier,” said Beth Soholt, executive director of Wind on the Wires, a nonprofit that advocates for wind and transmission development. The collaboration around the Oceti project, involving six regional tribes, is unique and could help smooth out problems, she said.\n\nJack and his collaborators believe they have what it takes to overcome the trail of failed renewable energy projects on tribal lands. In fact, each of the participating tribes had tried and failed at wind development, he said. That was the precipitating factor behind the creation of the Oceti Sakowin Power Authority (OSPA), which he chairs, to work with the tribes and developers. Five years ago, the tribes hired project manager Caroline Herron to run the agency; her husband, Jonathan Canis, serves as its general counsel. Under the authority’s governing arrangement, each tribe has a vote, even though the size of memberships and their wind energy potential differs greatly. A third party will determine royalties the tribes receive on each of the projects, Herron said, and some money will be preserved to invest in future wind farms. An elder’s council was also formed to ensure a broader viewpoint reflective of tribal values and history. “We wanted to make sure the element of culture was included in the decision making,” said Yankton Sioux Tribe elder council member Faith Spotted Eagle. Oceti has had an impressive string of grants and business moves. With the help of the Bush Foundation the tribe held “summits” in Washington, D.C., and at Standing Rock in 2012 and 2013 to discuss how to jointly form a power authority and how to use bond financing. At a Clinton Global Initiative event in 2013, the former president lauded the project and shared the stage with Oceti leaders. The Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisors stepped in become the fiscal sponsor and more grants followed. Government approvals and letters of support came from the U.S. Department of Energy, the White House and the Department of Interior; the tribes officially joined the power authority in 2015.\n\nPartnering with a developer\n\nNone of this work would have mattered without a renewable energy partner. In August 2017, the OSPA board selected Apex Clean Energy as a partner on the project and formed 7G Renewable Energy to develop wind energy on tribal lands and split the profits. Apex Clean Energy agreed to give the power authority a 51 percent majority ownership while highlighting the potential societal benefit. “Most of our projects have a great economic benefit, and a great environmental benefit, but this project has a potential for having a great social benefit as well,” said Apex business development vice president Eamon Perrel. That need to improve the local economies of the six tribes — some with land masses larger than several states — cannot be underestimated. The project includes some of the nation’s poorest tribes and one of the most politically active, Standing Rock, which fought a celebrated battle against the Dakota Access Pipeline last year. Apex will train residents to work on turbine construction, operations, maintenance and financial aspects of the industry, Perrel said. The goal is for tribal members to eventually run the wind farms, “but that doesn’t happen overnight,” he said. The Dakotas collectively have been called the Saudi Arabia of wind and that certainly played a role in Apex’s decision to partner with the tribes. “If you look at wind map of the United States and circled the top regions the Dakotas would certainly be one of them,” Perrel noted. “It has some of the best wind in the country.” While the agreement means the power authority will need to raise their own capital, they will retain more of the profits, Jack said. Most wind developers simply pay landowners lease fees and royalties based on energy generation, he said, and have no ownership in projects. “We want to use our revenue to invest back into the wind farms, so we can retain more ownership and more control of our projects,” Jack said. That leaves the burden of raising half the money on the tribes, certain to be a challenge considering they have no history of taking on anything this large or complex. Working with Apex, tribes are exploring ways to pay for their portion through development loans, bridge and tax equity financing. Apex wants the first project to be operating by 2021 to allow investors to get 80 percent of a federal production tax credit that begins declining that same year. In addition to raising capital, the project will need to find buyers for the power. Apex received agreements to transmit electricity from the first two projects into the Southwest Power Pool, a regional transmission organization covering an area from the Dakotas south to northern Texas. The company has worked before in SPP’s territory, where wind represents 21 percent of its generation mix, Perrel said.\n\nThe tribes and Apex believe the first two projects — the 450 megawatt Ta’teh Topah wind farm on the Cheyenne River Indian Reservation and the 120 MW Pass Creek on Pine Ridge Reservation — are just the start. They want to generate gigawatts of wind power far into the future by exploiting the windy environment of the Great Plains. Some entities will have to buy all those gigawatts of electricity. Herron anticipates utilities, electric cooperatives, corporations and other clients will be big buyers. Some will do it because wind prices are so competitive now with coal and natural gas. Others will do it to reach renewable energy standards or in pursuit of corporate sustainability goals. “Corporations have become large (clean) power purchasers and we offer the advantage of buying from a minority-owned business,” she said. “They can meet diversity goals they have for their supply chains… and find a lot of value in partnering with Indian tribes and bringing economic development to the area.” The tribes see Oceti has a way to weave together the native philosophy of protection of the environment with the need for jobs and wind revenue to build a more economically secure future. Ryman LeBeau, a power authority board director for Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe, sees the project as “going back to living off the land, which brings us back to our core values.” Eagle shares the sentiment. “I think that to us, as elders, we have recognition of powers of the world, and wind is one of the great powers of the earth,” Eagle said. “So, to us it makes all the sense in the world to do it in a way that doesn’t harm the environment and destroy the only earth we have. It makes sense to do it in a renewable manner.” The dream of harnessing the region’s rich wind resource has been a more than a two-decade-long goal for Jack. “We’re going to give a template to other tribes to put their resources together and do projects like this,” Jack said. “We’re breaking ground for other tribes on how to come together and put your interests together and see what you can do. I think it’s about making history.” Frank is an independent journalist and consultant based in St. Paul and a longtime contributor to Midwest Energy News.

And then, while a student at Alabama and stringing for the Post, he was asked to cover the opening of a rubber plant in Tuscaloosa.\n\nIt cost Lumpkin 20 cents to ride the bus to the rubber plant and back, plus 5 cents to buy the newspaper the next day. The Post paid him 5 cents an inch. After he turned in a 15-inch story on the rubber plant, the paper ran only two. He lost money on the deal.",

"Lumpkin’s mother, Clara, worked at the Post, first as a switchboard operator and later in the business office.\n\n“You’re not going to sit on your butt all summer and play softball,” Clara told her son in the spring of 1944. “Get down to the paper. They’re looking for an office boy.”\n\nBill began as a copy boy. His duties included calling the weather bureau and writing two paragraphs for the front page. “I couldn’t put a sentence together,” he said. Later he started writing a radio column called “Timely Tips for Nightly Dial Twisters,” which amounted to pasting up the releases that the radio stations mailed to the paper. He also filled paste pots, went out for coffee, ran copy to the composing room and did other “go-fer” jobs.\n\nOddly, Lumpkin also had a paper route, delivering the competition, the Birmingham News. “I don’t know if they knew,” he said of his bosses at the Post. “They probably didn’t care.”"

"After being trained by Ernest Rheault, Eddie Watts debuted as a cocky rulebreaker for Central Canadian Pro Wrestling.\n\nHe’s wrestled across Canada, including Stampede Wrestling in 1988-1989, and many trips to the Maritimes for Emile Dupre.\n\nIn Puerto Rico, Watts worked alongside such men as Kerry Brown and Scott Hall (and is credited with teaching Hall how to punch). In 1990, he was WWC Junior Heavyweight title.\n\nWatts has also wrestled in Mexico and Japan, recently teaming with Leatherface (Rick Patterson) as Steelface.\n\nWhen not on an international tour, Watts can be found as a mid-card performer for the WFWA and River City Wrestling as the Tasmanian.\n\nThis bio was written by central Canada’s leading wrestling expert, Vern May of Canadian Wrestle-Media. To learn more about wrestlers from Manitoba and Saskatchewan, Vern encourages you to email him.\n\nI had the pleasure of not only watching Eddie wrestle, but of interviewing him for New Wave Wrestling as well. He was humble, yet confident in his skills, plus he looked pretty cool standing there covered in blood while I interviewed him!\nHe took a wicked shot from Chi Chi Cruz to the back of the head with a chair, and it opened up a large gash. He figured it was going to result in his tenth concussion.\nHow can you not respect a guy that got blood poisoning from wrestling 22 barbed-wire matches in Puerto Rico in 23 days!\nScotty Carnegie\n\nI can honestly say that I owe my life to Eddie Watts, because he has never yet succeeded in killing me.\nDave Levinsky, Winnipeg\n\nIt is with great pleasure and excitement that I can actually say that I got to see and talk to Eddie Watts this summer in Yarmouth, Nova Scotia. And the best part of talking to him was: I was also able to get some beautiful pictures taken with him. Eddie if you do read these memories, I would like to say that I am also looking forward in hopefully seing you again next year in the Maritimes. And also if I do see you, I will have some beautiful pictures of you to give you.\nLove Always, # 1 Fan\nLouise (Summer 2000)\n\nI was lucky enough to see Eddie Watts wrestle on the summer 2000 tour of Grand Prix Wrestling. After nearly decapitating one of my friends with an ax handle he was nice enough to have a chat with us about his influences and experiences in the ring. Great technical wrestler and he knows how to work the crowd. A real hard ass and tough as nails to boot. Hope to see him on tour in 2001.\nStu “Grim Reaper”, Moncton, N.B.\n\nI was lucky enough to have the chance to catch Eddie Watts on the Grand Prix circut and I have to say he is one of the biggest hard asses I have ever met. Even though he nearly crushed my skull with an axe handle, he was nice enough to talk with me and Stu about some of his crazy wrestling stories from all over the world. In my opinion with his wrestling skills, experience, and amazing ability to work the crowd I think he’s one of the great performers in the sport. You have to respect someone who wrestled 22 barb wire matches in 23 days!\nDan “Real Deal” Moncton NB\n\nEddy Watts was always one of the reasons that I used to go watch Real Action Wrestling shows in North Sydney. My friend, Robert Sealey, told me about how crazy this guy was (22 Barbed Wire matches in 23 nights!!!), and I instantly claimed this guy as one of my heroes!\nEddy was an awesome worker. HE always acknowledged my EDDY signs and used to parade them around the ring before and after his matches. I had the opportunity to get my picture taken with him and wish him nothing but the best in the future.\nRyan Doucette (Doobzz), Glace Bay, Nova Scotia"

"“Literally stepped out of the office with my knees bent!” “\n\nHugh Jackman is one of Hollywood’s most sought-after stars, and the actor has carved out his place not only in the superhero genre, but in many others as well. But did you know that his height early in his career was called a “problem” in choosing him for roles, and that surprised him the most. The actor in his last interview opened up about the same thing.\n\nAt the age of 32, Hugh Jackman entered the world of Wolverine and became the superhero everyone loved across the world. The actor has already parted ways with the franchise. Both the studio and the fans want him to make a comeback as soon as possible. But it was not the same when he was chosen as a popular character, the bosses had a doubt given his character. Read on to find out all you should about the same.\n\nSpeaking to Express about his entry into Hollywood, Hugh Jackman said, “They told me I was too big! I’m 6ft 2in tall, and when I first got in everyone was like, “Oh, man! They listed all the big movie stars and they were all smaller than me! Maybe it’s for the girls, I don’t know.\n\n“But I know when I started out I spent my time without my shoes doing a half-squat for whole scenes – hey, when you get your first job in Hollywood and they tell you to look shorter, you say, “Absolutely! Twelve o’clock? No problem!’ Plus, squatting is good for your legs! Hugh Jackman added.\n\nHugh goes on to talk about getting his decisive role at age 32 with Wolverine and the Sony bosses, again emphasizing at his height that the character as per his comic book description was shorter. “I met (Sony Pictures president) Tim Rothman and it was okay, and then when I left his office he said, ‘Oh, there’s only one problem – in the comics. , Wolverine is 5 feet 5 inches tall. I said, “It’s not a problem!” and I literally walked out of his office with my knees bent! “\n\nHugh Jackman also took the moment to express his gratitude for finding the role even though it was late in his career. “I’m fully aware that I was over 30 when I did this,” he says. “I didn’t really have a profile in Hollywood until then, and I’m happy about that because hopefully at 30 you kind of know who you are, what you stand for, what’s important. for you. I’m sure there are actors who find being famous suffocating and unbearable. But for me, I went in with my eyes wide open, so I’m fine.\n\nStay tuned to Koimoi for more\n\nHardy has no problem with the filming of “Furiosa”"

"Ellen Corby (Ellen Hansen, 1911-1999) has over 250 screen credits, though today she is remembered almost exclusively as no-nonsense Grandma Walton, who was always scolding Grandpa (Will Geer) who was a bit of a wag. But as frequently happens, I find myself most fascinated by her early career. Her’s does not disappoint.",
null,
"Raised in Philly, where she acted in school plays, Corby was briefly an Atlantic City chorus girl before heading out to Hollywood in 1933. There she found occasional work as a bit player and steadier work as a script girl. At Hal Roach studios she worked on Our Gang, Laurel and Hardy and Charley Chase comedies. And there she met the man she married in 1934, Francis Corby, who’d been a comedy director in the silent days, helming Andy Gump, Buster Brown, and Newlyweds comedies. In the sound era he worked for Roach and others as a cinematographer. At any rate, thanks to the Roach connection you can see Ellen Corby in walk-ons in Laurel and Hardy’s Sons of the Desert (1933), and March of the Wooden Soldiers (1934). She was also script supervisor on Swiss Miss (1938).\n\nCorby also garnered a few writing credits in her early years: she co-wrote the 1936 crime drama The Broken Coin, and contributed to two Hopalong Cassidy westerns, Twilight on the Trail (1941) and Hoppy’s Holiday (1947).\n\nIn 1971 The Waltons arrived, and that was pretty much her gig through A Walton Easter (1997), her final credit (aside from a couple of other highly Waltonesque roles). This despite the fact that she’d had a stroke in 1976! She recovered after a few months and kept at it for another two decades.\n\nFor more on classic comedy film, where Ellen Corby got her start, please read Chain of Fools: Silent Comedy and Its Legacies from Nickelodeons to Youtube."

"How We Met: We met on a night out in Dubai in the same bar where he proposed.

When he saw me, he immediately came up to introduce himself. We got talking and we were laughing all night long. The next evening we had our first date (in the same bar/restaurant), it has amazing views of the Dubai skyline and the Burj Khalifa and we have been together ever since.\n\nhow they asked: David had said that we were just going out for dinner, so I didn’t think anything else of it. We met downstairs in the lobby and I was so surprised when a Rolls Royce Phantom was waiting for us. I was so shocked and couldn’t stop laughing.\n\nI had never been in a luxury car before and this is an ongoing joke between me and David. I once said that they look cheap, until David told me how expensive they actually are- he always teases me for having absolutely no idea about cars.\n\nWe had an amazing ride all around Dubai before the car dropped us off at the hotel (where the restaurant/bar is). David took me up to the top of the hotel where I was surprised to see a table setup in the middle of the bar.\n\nThere were candles and rose petals and huge pictures of us both. David then lead me closer to the table where I saw more pictures of us and a scrapbook saying ‘our very own love story’.",

"The traditional season-opener, the Serbian Super Cup between the winners of the domestic and Balkan Super Leagues, saw Red Star defeat Belgrade rivals Partizan 42-26 at the BASK Arena.\n\nRed Star, under new Australian coach Trevor Smith started superbly, with three tries in the opening 20 minutes from Rajko Trifunović, Stefan Nikolić and Denis Čengaj, all goaled by Vojislav Dedić to give them an 18-0 lead.\n\nPartizan countered with tries from Miloš Đurković and prop Ronaldo Bitići, and when Dario Abidinović crossed soon after the break, the lead was cut just to six points at 20-14.\n\nFrom there the red and whites regained their dominance with four unanswered touchdowns, Australian import Jack O’Brien running the length of the field and then setting up another score from long range for Miloš Zogović which proved to be the game definer.\n\nIn the last quarter, Partizan rallied to claim the last two tries despite having Dušan Milutinović sent off, three other players in total being yellow-carded in a typically no-holds barred encounter between the sides.\n\nIt was the second time Red Start have picked up the SRL Super Cup and the 13th victory in 20 matches in all competitions against their biggest rivals."

"Peridot Gemstone – The Birthstone of August",
null,
"Peridot the birthstone of August is a lime color gemstone in addition to this it is one of the few gemstones who possesses only one color. In ancient times, it was believed that this stone is a distinctive gift to humankind by the mother of nature to celebrate the annual creation of the earth.\n\nPeridots are large crystals of olivine which is a common element of the earth’s crust. Peridot is the mineral olivine, usually dark green in color – a semi-precious gem – and mostly magnesium silicate. A peridotite rock is composed of 90% or more olivine.",

"Humans know surprisingly little about one of the largest features of the cosmos: big ol' voids of nothingness. If the universe was a brain cell, cosmic voids would be the space between neurons — and they're absolutely huge, sometimes measuring in at hundreds of millions of light-years in width.\n\nNow, a new theory floats the possibility that these voids might explain one of the most galling mysteries in cosmology. According to a new paper spotted by Live Science and set to be published in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society journal, these cosmic voids may be the source of dark energy, the yet-unexplained force that most experts believe is causing the universe to expand faster and faster.\n\nBasically, a longstanding puzzle in astrophysics is that observations show the universe expanding faster than our best calculations predict that it should. Scientists have long speculated that some unknown force, termed dark matter, is causing that faster-than-expected expansion.\n\nAs explained by Live Science's Paul Sutter — himself a professor of astrophysics at Stony Brook University, it's worth noting — the Iranian researchers' thesis is essentially that these vast voids are exerting pressure on the stuff around them. If the claim holds up, the idea is that they're warping the expansion of the entire universe outside what you'd expect from a more homogenous distribution of matter.\n\nWhether the claim will hold up is tough to say. The scientists are circumspect in the paper, framing the voids as a \"possible source\" of dark energy. But the stakes are high, because anyone who does explain the great mystery of dark matter will undoubtedly earn a permanent place in the history of science.\n\nMore on dark matter: Inside NASA's Bold Proposal to Probe the Mysteries of Dark Matter"

"Yesterday we looked at the folks on the upper end. Now let’s look at some people in the middle. Here are data sets for four mid sized companies: The Lantern, Interact, Theatre Exile, and Act II Playhouse.\n\nUsing this website I found the “revenue” listed for each of these companies to be in the mid to high hundred thousands. I’m assuming that’s for the most recent tax filing. For comparison yesterday’s figures for the Arden, People’s Light, PTC, and Wilma had revenues listed at 5.29 million, 4.11 million, 3.95 million, and 3.64 million respectively. So on the whole we’re looking roughly at an order of magnitude smaller.\n\nThis is useful to note for two semi-self evident reasons:\n\n1) Larger companies tend to employ more people and therefore a difference in representation in these companies has a higher impact on the community as a whole.\n\n2) We can make a reasonable assumption that jobs at better funded theaters will tend to pay at a higher pay grade.\n\nThis is obviously not always true in every instance, but gives a useful bit of context when comparing numbers across company sizes. Still, unfair representation is, obviously, unfair at any scale.",

"1) Act II’s data on designers was particularly tough to find (especially for seasons 08/09 and 09/10). This is why the total numbers of designers is lower than the expected based on corresponding number of productions. This data is less complete than the other theaters’ info. If you’d like the raw data feel free to ask.\n\n2) Again, if you want to know how I calculated these numbers you can check back on the PS from yesterday’s post."

"My son, Cody, and I recently went on a duck hunt to Alaska. We flew out of Sacramento, California on October 1st and landed in Anchorage, Alaska, where we rented a car and drove north for 45 minutes to Wasilla, the town where our guide, Mike Robinson, was waiting for us. Posted along the highway were large signs warning of the dangers of moose crossing the road. We actually saw a vehicle off the road that looked like it had been on the losing end of one of those encounters. Pretty close to running into a brick wall.\n\nAfter checking into our motel, we met Mike for dinner at a local eatery to discuss hunting plans for the following day. Mike has been an Alaskan resident for many decades, and in addition to being an excellent hunting guide for waterfowl, he's also an accomplished outboard motor mechanic, photographer, decoy carver, and graphic artist. He would later show us a perfect reproduction of a Ward Brothers vintage pintail decoy he'd carved, and told us the original had sold for $500.000.\n\nOn the following morning, Mike met us at the motel and we drove to an area known as the Palmer Hay Flats Marsh. We were going to be hunting puddle ducks, not diving ducks. Alaska is well-known for its diving duck population, but we were interested in puddle ducks, and the area we were hunting is a main migration corridor for them. We loaded our gear into Mike's jon boat and headed up Rabbit Slough for a distance of approximately five miles toward the marsh. Along the way, we jumped ducks and saw several moose. The scenery was spectacular, to say the least.\n\nThe next three days would leave us with memories that will last a lifetime. My son is a police officer in Hawaii, and we can usually get together for a visit only once or twice a year. This trip allowed us to spend plenty of quality time together.\n\nWhen we arrived at the marsh, Mike put us in a platform blind and set out decoys, and then motored to a spot in the rushes where we would have the opportunity to keep birds working between us.\n\nOver the next three days, we bagged a nice variety of ducks, which also included divers such as American Goldeneye and scaup, commonly known as bluebills. Cody was shooting \"Old Reliable\", a Remington 11-87 that has never jammed or malfunctioned in over 20 years. He made some spectacular shots--amazing, considering he rarely has an opportunity to hunt waterfowl. The bagging of waterfowl turned out to be the least important part of the trip. The journey itself, sharing time with Cody, along with meeting Mike (a wonderful man), and taking in the natural beauty of Alaska, were the highlights of the hunt.\n\nA personal high point for me was when we spent a night out on the marsh in a rustic cabin, which Mike later dubbed DWPD--the Don Webster Pintail Diner. The shack contained a little wood stove, a cooking and dining area, and four crude bunks. Lots of old-school character. I grilled some steak and duck for the guys, and we enjoyed chatting about the day's hunt while we ate dinner. We slept like logs that night, all of us snoring. Cody said I snored more loudly than my own late father, which, if true, is nothing short of phenomenal. My dad could raise the rafters. One interesting observation I made on the trip, thanks to Mike pointing it out, was that the large flocks of puddle ducks tended to congregate in the immediate vicinity of hundreds of swans. The swans would literally turn the water brown and muddy while feeding and it obviously generated plenty of extra feed for the ducks. Find the swans and you found the ducks.\n\nOn our final evening in Alaska, Mike invited us to his home for a great pot roast dinner. After the meal, he showed us around his place, which included several of his beautiful wildlife paintings, several of his carved decoys, several outboard motors, and photographs. He presented me with a gift, which was a carving of a beautiful, delicate shorebird. My wife loves it.\n\nAn added bonus: on the flight home, we sat next to a fellow named Curt Olson, who was on his way to Portland and then to North Dakota to hunt pheasants with his grandson. Curt was one of those people whom you feel like you've known all your life after talking with him for about five minutes. He's lived in Homer, Alaska for 52 years, flies a float plane, and has bagged over 30 moose during that time, in addition to elk, sheep, goats, bison, and waterfowl. He shared some great stories during our three hour flight. Quite a guy.\n\nP.S. Wasilla is the home of Sarah Palin. Kept an eye out for her, but no luck.\n\nNote: Anyone interested in hunting puddle ducks in Alaska would do well to contact Mike Robinson by phone at (907) 887-6066, email him at [email protected], and check out his website duckhuntingalaska.com.",

"I was asked to read a prayer at our annual Summer Solstice Ceremony on the beach. I have many beautiful prayers written over the years and I am always open to receive a new one if it is meant for a certain time. I have learned that I will be guided to what is to be spoken even down to the last minute. This is what happened for the Solstice. I was guided to read, not a prayer, but a message from Magdalene and right before I left for the ceremony I was guided to a message from Joan of Arc. I realize now these messages are truly divine prayers.\n\nThe morning of the ceremony I received a phone call from my childhood friend’s sister asking me if I received something she had sent me and telling me her sister was now in hospice. She told me that her sister had been going through her things and came across something she wanted me to have. I never received it. It was an etching of the name of our friend from the Viet Nam memorial wall and I assume a note to tell me that the end was near.\n\nI made my way to the ceremony feeling upset and unsettled. I prayed and prayed for my friend and her family all through the ceremony. A strong feeling came over me that she would leave today on the glory of the Summer Solstice. I still felt terribly unsettled. Now my name was called and it was time for me to stand and speak the words that were so divinely given. I stood in the Solstice circle. As I spoke these words they vibrated into every cell of my being. I began to feel two things together – peace and strength. I felt the truth and the power in every word. I felt stronger and stronger. I felt them – Magdalene and Joan of Arc and everyone else did too.",

In the midst of a long and debilitating illness I received a vision of Jerusalem. I was told of a connection with Mary Magdalene and soon after writings emerged in the form of stories, prayers and poetry. The Heart of Love is a beautiful love song to the divine feminine. Mary Magdalene has come forth in many ways to help to shine the light on the great imbalance of the masculine and feminine throughout time. I am dedicated to helping to restore the divine feminine to her rightful place through powerful meditations and initiations of the highest order. These divine ancient ceremonies spark the remembrance of the power, truth and beauty of the divine feminine within us all.\n\nOne thought on “A Summer Solstice Story”",

"\n[Interview] Eiyuden Chronicle devs on how the game came to be, art style, making a unique RPG, more",
null,
"A couple of days ago, Rabbit & Bear Studios announced Eiyuden Chronicle. It’s one to keep an eye out on as the project is being developed by some notable developers, including the creator of Suikoden.\n\nAhead of the Kickstarter campaign’s launch next week, we caught up with director Yoshitaka Murayama to learn more about the Tokyo-based studio, how the game came to be, the art style, the team’s desire to make a unique RPG, and other topics. If you’re interested in learning more about Eiyuden Chronicle be sure to read up on our interview below.\n\nCan you touch on how Rabbit & Bear Studios came to be? How did this collection of talent end up coming together?\n\nOver the past years the core creators have met up at different events/etc. and of course you talk about the glory days as well as regrets. One common thing that always came up was “isn’t it about time we make a game for ourselves? Something WE really want to make? Something we can make for the FANS?” And that dream provided the spark for this current project.\n\nWhile Eiyuden Chronicle takes some inspiration from Suikoden, what sort of new directions are you looking to explore with this project?\n\nWe made the intentional choice to go with pixels because there is a certainly level of emotion you can only get from 2D but we mixed that with living, breathing 3D backgrounds to create a new hybrid art style. Also, the new guild system allows you to create an additional team beyond your fighting party that works to improve and expand many features of your fortress town. That team will open up new missions and items as well as visually change and define your town as your very own thing.\n\nWho is the audience for Eiyuden Chronicle? Are you trying to appeal to Suikoden fans or is this a game for causal RPG fans as well?\n\nThe core audience is definitely going to be JRPG fans but I always like to build a game out as if it’s the first time someone is playing an RPG so it should be accessible and enjoyed by all types of gamers.\n\nWhen did work on Eiyuden Chronicle actually begin and what’s planned for the next stages of development?\n\nWe’ve been working on it for a few months now.\n\nWhat sets apart Eiyuden Chronicle from other turn-based RPGs?\n\nWe want to evolve turn-based systems with this game. One of the key parameters is to speed up the overall pace of battles while adding in dynamic camera work to make the combat pop. Additionally, we plan to use the actually physical pieces of the 3D backgrounds as a key strategic point in battles, much like you might take cover behind a wall in a real battle. Also, the guild system places emphasis on finding the right balanced party for going out in battle but also building and developing your fortress town bringing a new level of strategy and challenge to the game.\n\nCan you tell us more about the game’s visuals and how the team settled on a 2.5D approach?\n\nWe always felt there is a certain beauty and depth that you can only get out of 2D sprites. That being said, by blending them with more modern 3D backgrounds you can get the best of both worlds and a very rich game environment that really shines.\n\nWhat’s the general gist of Eiyuden Chronicle’s plot? What sort of story beats can players look forward to?\n\nThe main character Nowa and his best friend (and rival) Seign both have the desire to save as many citizens who are collateral damage from the war. They both have good intentions and are bound by friendship but their different perspectives and how they go about achieving their goals as well as different histories puts them on divergent paths. As you proceed with the story you’ll see what becomes of these two characters and the final choices they have to make.\n\nHow does it feel to be returning to the director role and leading the way on this project?\n\nAs a director you are really in the think of it. All the responsibility and never enough time. But I’d be lying if I said there isn’t a very rewarding feeling that comes from that frantic decision making.\n\nWhat are your thoughts on teaming up together again after 25 years? Does it feel just like the old days?\n\nI feel the same way about Kawano-san as I did 25 years ago. Incredibly talented and always fortunate to work together.\n\nWhat does Eiyuden Chronicle mean to the development team? Bringing a game to life through crowdfunding takes a lot of passion and drive, so can you speak about what this project means to you personally?\n\nI think JRPG is still and incredibly attractive and deep genre. Being able to shine a light and be innovated within that genre is a big challenge but also incredibly exciting. And by that same logic, hopefully the fans will support that challenge and continue to push us to be better creators by constantly innovating.\n\nWhat are the future ambitions for Rabbit & Bear Studios? Does the team hope to turn Eiyuden Chronicle into a series if the game is a success?\n\nFounding R&B and going to Kickstarter was an active choice. One that allows us a chance to own IP and more importantly make the games we want to – games for our fans. Right now we need to put our all into making Eiyuden Chronicle a success. If we can do that, it’s always a lot of fun to expand the game world as much as possible. Since this is our first big step we really hope our fans can support this new challenge and continue to lend us their strength.\n\nA Kickstarter campaign goes live for Eiyuden Chronicle tomorrow. We’ll be sure to share the link when it’s up."

"Settler Tourists Given Weekly Armed Escort through Streets of Hebron",
null,
"On Saturday May 19th, over twenty soldiers escorted armed settlers through the souq\n\nEvery Saturday, Zionist settler tours take place in the narrow alleys of the souq in Al Khalil’s (Hebron). These guided tours usually last for about an hour, and settlers are always accompanied by armed Israeli forces, intimidating local Palestinians who are trying to make a living by selling their goods in the market.\n\nThe tours began in 2008. At the moment they are usually made up of 50 or more settlers, accompanied by around 30 armed soldiers and border police.\n\nPalestinians often have to stop and wait as the tour makes its way down the narrow streets of the souq. If they are allowed to pass at all, pedestrians are forced to walk through a crowd of settlers, soldiers and border police. Businesses in the souq are affected, as shopping streets are brought to a standstill.\n\nOn recent Saturdays, ISM volunteers have seen small children attempting to get past the tour, but repeatedly being told to wait by the army escort.",

"Each week, international volunteers from ISM, the Ecumenical Accompaniment Programme for Palestine and Israel (EAPPI) and Christian Peacemaker Teams (CPT) walk ahead of and behind the tour, in an attempt to monitor and observe the situation. These observers often face harassment from Israeli forces. For example, on Saturday 5th May, after the tour had finished, six international volunteers were surrounded and detained by 13 paratroopers. The commander of the group demanded IDs from the internationals, and threatened that if they ‘made problems’, they would be imprisoned for one month, barred from Al-Khalil, or from entering Israel in the future. This is one small example of how the Israeli military works to prevent any scrutiny of its illegal occupation.\n\nOne shopkeeper in the souq told ISM, “We don’t know the settlers’ intentions in coming into our streets, why do they have to come here? Perhaps they are wanting to take over this area.”\n\nAnother shopkeeper told us, “I really feel distressed and unsafe during the tours. Even though they have army units with them, some of the settlers carry shotguns. I think they come here [on the tours] because they think think this is their city. It puts a lot of pressure on us Palestinians. I have even seen the people on the tours spitting at international volunteers.\n\nWe never know when they are going to come, sometimes they come late afternoon. Sometimes, when there are hard times here, they even come at night.”\n\nRead more about the settler tours here and here.",

"NYC Only Testing for COVID-19 in Patients Needing Hospitalization\n\nOn Friday, New York City's health department sent out a health alert to thousands of physicians instructing them to only test for COVID-19 in patients that require hospitalization.\n\nThe advisory said: \"Persons with COVID-like illness not requiring hospitalization should be instructed to stay home. It is safer for the patients and health care workers and testing does not currently change clinical management or recommendations about staying home.\"\n\nThe advisory suggested the only justification for alternate testing venues would be for hospital systems trying to offload testing activities so they do not put too much stress on emergency departments.\n\nAside from patient and health care worker safety, the city is also discouraging the use of high-volume testing sites because they burn though the chemicals used to extract genetic material from the coronavirus.\n\nThose chemicals are the subject of a global shortage. On the phone News 4 spoke with a German company called Qiagen, struggling to ramp up production of buffers and reagents needed to supply the whole world with COVID-19 tests.\n\n\"The output has already increased by 70 percent. We've already shipped twice as many extraction kits to the United States as we did in 2019,\" said Dr. Thomas Theuringer, a spokesperson for Qiagen.\n\nThe latest advisory comes as the total number of positive COVID-19 cases in New York Friday accounted for nearly half of all confirmed cases in the country, Gov. Cuomo said -- proof that the state's testing capacity has improved since the start of the novel coronavirus outbreak.\n\nBut not all medical professionals think increased testing is good news.\n\nLaboratory Director for the NYC Department of Health Jennifer Rakeman worries the flood of people looking for testing could do more harm than good.\n\n\"There was a point where doing more testing was helpful because that might help us, when there’s not a lot of cases, to find where there might be cases to see if there’s something for some sort of containment. But we’re past that now,” Rakeman said in an interview with News 4.\n\nTesting has shot up thanks to the construction of mobile testing sites at hospitals as well as community-based health centers and drive-thru testing facilities, of which there are roughly a dozen scattered across the tri-state (tests are done by appointment only).\n\n\"Right now, personal protective equipment required by healthcare workers to take care of sick patients is critically, critically low. We’re going to run out of PPE and every little bit of PPE that’s being used to test a patient who really doesn’t need a test is taking away from PPE that a healthcare worker needs to take care of a seriously ill patient,\" Rakeman said.\n\nOn Thursday, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio urged the federal government to supply desperately needed medical supplies. According to the mayor, the city is \"two weeks or three weeks away from running out of supplies.\"\n\nThe situation was dire enough in New Jersey that a new drive-thru testing facility that opened in Paramus Friday morning had to close by lunchtime due to hitting its capacity. Gov. Phil Murphy said it will reopen Saturday morning and will go up until 350 tests.\n\n\"I don’t see value in those drive-up testing centers. In fact, they are, I feel irresponsible and dangerous at this point – because they are using up things like masks and gloves that are important for healthcare workers and are more important as we see more serious cases throughout the city that need hospital care,\" Rakeman said.\n\n“We know that the circulating virus right now that’s causing respiratory like illness or flu-like illnesses is COVID-19. You don’t need a test to tell you that,\" she said.",

"93\nNo topic divides Vancouver Canucks fans more than Jim Benning’s performance as general manager. And it’s easy to understand why.\n\nOn the one hand, Benning’s Canucks have assembled a promising nucleus with riches of high-end talent. Mining franchise cornerstones in Elias Pettersson and Quinn Hughes alone has singlehandedly altered the franchise’s direction and they’ve secured those superstar pieces despite drafting no higher than fifth overall. The future is bright, insist supporters.\n\nIt’s taken six years and four consecutive playoff misses to get to this point, however. The team should be further along already and the hotshot core is currently – and will continue to be – held back by reckless salary cap management, detractors would argue.\n\nWith Thursday officially marking the sixth anniversary of Benning’s hiring, which side is right?\n\nThere are layers and nuances to Benning’s tenure so we...\nCLAIM OFFER\nAlready a subscriber?

"Tom Williams looks out his window of his Greensboro home while wearing the military jacket he wore during the Vietnam War. “Fighting a war is a dirty job, literally and figuratively,” he said.\n\nTom Williams shows one of his Purple Heart medals at his home in Greensboro. Williams was wounded twice while on patrol in Vietnam, both times by booby traps.\n\nTom Williams holds up a Viet Cong flag he brought back from Vietnam.\n\nTom Williams goes through some of his personal memorabilia from Vietnam in Greensboro, N.C. on Tuesday, October 16, 2018.\n\nTom Williams hold up his harness that he wore in Vietnam in Greensboro, N.C. on Tuesday, October 16, 2018.\n\nTom Williams looks out his window while wearing his flack jacket from Vietnam in Greensboro, N.C. on Tuesday, October 16, 2018.\n\nTom Williams looks out his window of his Greensboro home while wearing the military jacket he wore during the Vietnam War. “Fighting a war is a dirty job, literally and figuratively,” he said.\n\nThe thing you have to understand, says retired federal judge Tom Williams, is how invulnerable the young person feels who enlists during wartime.\n\n“The mindset of someone who does something like that is hard to get across,” he says with a smile. “You don’t feel as though you can die. You feel almost invincible — you know that someone might die, but it certainly isn’t going to be you. Instead, I was afraid that I was going to miss the war.”\n\nThe war was Vietnam, where Williams served from March to August 1969 as part of his four years in the U.S. Marine Corps. In the process, he earned two Purple Heart decorations for wounds received in combat and the respect of a platoon that he led from the front. Admiration for two uncles, both World War II veterans, and the educational benefits of the GI Bill got him in; his sense of duty and responsibility saw him through, and became a life-long philosophy.\n\n“I’ve never shied away from the dirty jobs,” Williams says. “Fighting a war is a dirty job, literally and figuratively. Being a prosecutor is a dirty job. But somebody has to do these things. You have to feel the necessity of it and do it.”\n\nAfter two years at UNC-Chapel Hill, Williams decided, in 1967 at age 23, to enlist in the Marines. Deep military roots also ran in the family; four uncles and Williams’ brothers had all served.\n\n“I lived in awe of their experience, and I wanted to know what that was like,” he says. “My uncles were both my heroes. I also knew I wanted a career in politics, and I wanted this experience to prepare.”\n\nWilliams entered as an enlisted corpsman, and did well in basic training at Parris Island. Then came Officer Candidate School and basic infantry training at Camp Lejeune, where he also was assigned an infantry specialty: anti-tank assault. Williams learned to use a recoil-less rifle, a 3.5 rocket launcher — a bazooka, to Army partisans — and a flame thrower (tip: never use in the wind.) Finally came platoon command in Vietnam as a second lieutenant.\n\nIn 1969, the war was still at its height — “We got shot at a lot,” Williams says — and his platoon was in the thick of the action against Viet Cong guerilla forces. His first Purple Heart came from a surprise firing device — a booby trap — set on Go Noi Island, in June that year. During a sweeping maneuver along a river to look for concealed enemy positions, Williams stepped on a “chicom” grenade — “basically a small tin can full of explosives with a fuse and a trip wire,” he says — and was transported by Medevac. “I was lucky — it didn’t hit anything vital,” he says.\n\nA few weeks later, in August 1969, Williams was back in Vietnam, patrolling in an area between Danang and An Hoi nicknamed “Arizona” by the soldiers for its hot, dry, flat terrain. After observing some enemy activity, Williams was calling in an artillery position when the radio operator set the radio down on another hidden grenade.\n\nThis time, the device was bigger, and Williams wasn’t as lucky.\n\n“It got about three of us,” he says. “I got hit in the stomach, got a piece in my heart, legs, shoulders ... It was as bad as it gets in terms of pain. I literally couldn’t speak, it hurt so bad.”\n\nWilliams went back to duty as an officer trainer at Marine Corps Base Quantico in Virginia for the rest of the year, eventually leaving the service in 1971 as a first lieutenant.\n\n“I can get misty pretty fast thinking about those guys,” Williams says of the soldiers with whom he served. “It was a young man’s war. Some of them weren’t even shaving yet, and they still had to do a lot of dirty work. Sometimes, I’d have to yell at them, and it hurt to have to do that because they were just boys.”\n\nWilliams went back to UNC, earning a degree in political science. He found another new perspective after taking a job as a prison guard at Polk Youth Center, then in Raleigh, before law school.\n\n“I’d always had an obsession with being a lawyer and a judge, and I wanted insight into what prison was like,” he said. “It was an eye-opener. I was involved in escape attempts, every kind of thing.”\n\nWilliams earned a law degree in 1974 from Wake Forest University, married his wife, Linda Rhyne, and had a daughter. After a six-year stint as an assistant district attorney in Guilford County, Williams was elected as a District Court judge and, later, a federal administrative law judge. He retired in 2015.\n\nWilliams found that his legal career used many of the same principles that he’d learned in the military: do what has to be done, even if it’s dirty work.\n\n“There were certain things I would not do,” he says. “You can’t favor people you like, or disfavor people you don’t like. Often, the law dictates things that don’t seem right. If you can’t do the job ethically, and do the unpleasant part of it like the pleasant, don’t do it.”\n\nFrom time to time, Williams says, he dreams about his time in the service. Some are nightmares, but not all. Those years, he says, formed the backbone of his life.\n\n“I feel that it’s a responsibility to talk about those years, and I don’t mind talking about them,” he says. “The perspective I got from the service — I wouldn’t take anything for it.”\n\nArticles and photos from the special \"Honoring Our Veterans\" section that ran on Nov. 11, 2018.

"This year, March 8 also marked the 2-year anniversary of a fire in a state-run shelter in which 41 young women burned to death, and 15 others were injured, while locked in a room.\n\nEarly in the morning on March 8, the offices of the well-known women’s organization Sector de Mujeres were raided, in what the organization has denounced as a clear act of intimidation. The march changed routes to pass in front of the office as an act of solidarity.\n\nIn addition to participating in the march, the members of the women’s group in Tierra Nueva I and Tierra Nueva II look for ways to reach people in their community directly. This year, they read this poem at mass (Note: the poem contains intense language and images of violence against women).",

"The men’s reported actions certainly make them guilty of treachery, of violating the orders of their military superiors, and of serving the enemies of the United States. When found guilty of those crimes, they should, of course, be shot — or, if military etiquette is observed, hanged. One may add that they are also morally guilty of murder, since we may be quite sure that the Russian traitors whose names they betrayed were promptly “liquidated.” But none of this is treason, properly speaking, of which they cannot even be suspected.\n\nTreason is the act of betraying one’s nation to its enemies. (This is sometimes called high treason to distinguish it from the now obsolete crime of petite treason, betrayal of a lesser unit to which one owes allegiance by birth or by a natural fiduciary relationship, e.g., a vassal’s betrayal of his lord or a wife’s participation in murder of her husband.) Now a nation is, by definition, a racially homogeneous people who belong by birth to the amalgamation of small, kindred tribes in which nati sunt. A nation, in other words, is a very large tribe, an ethnic unity, to which one belongs biologically by being born.(1)\n\n(1. This fact has been somewhat obscured by the feudal use of territorial titles (e.g., Earl of Southampton, Graf von Thurn, Marquis de Lafayette, etc.), so that sovereigns, who theoretically are the incarnate consensus of the nation, were misleadingly given territorial titles in modern languages, e.g., King of England. The Latin equivalent is socially correct: Rex Anglorum.\n\nThe United States were a nation, but ceased to be one more than a century ago, when its Aryan population, seeking to curry favor with an imaginary god, destroyed it by giving legal citizenship to large numbers of enemy aliens, thus beginning the evolution to what the United States is today, a multiracial swamp, a territory inhabited by incompatible races, one of which will, by biological necessity, eventually subjugate, expel, or massacre all the others, though, perhaps, one at a time. There can be no loyalty to a multiracial cesspool and hence no treason against it. Treason now can be only betrayal of one’s own nation.\n\nIt is true that, for the comfort of boobs who might otherwise begin to think, there is still maintained officially the fiction that the United States is a country belonging to an Aryan majority and governed by the Constitution (which was nullified in 1861). But even by that fiction, the men under arrest cannot be justly accused of treason.\n\nWhat the press tried to conceal from the public was the fact that one of the sergeants is an Indian, a member of the Navaho nation, who should have been on a reservation in Arizona, while the other is a nigger, who should have been shining shoes in your home town. The Indian belongs to a race that not only instinctively hates the Pale Faces, but justly hates the race that took from it the North American continent. The Negro belongs to a race that Aryans once used as domestic livestock, a race which justly despises the stupid and craven Aryans who now not only permit it to vote but degrade and tax themselves to toady to it. His race is now talking openly of what it will by instinct try to achieve, Black Supremacy, and degenerate Aryans, their minds rotted by viral superstitions, think that’s just lovely.\n\nGiven the fiction that this is still an Aryan country, both sergeants in the service of the C.I.A. quite naturally obeyed their racial loyalties and gladly served the official enemies of the United States. That is the fundamental fact, although there is an attempt to conceal it by pretending that their urge to exploit, debauch, and degrade White women made them susceptible to solicitation by blonde Jewesses in the K.G.B’s Whore Corps.\n\nIt is a truism that guilt falls on the person who causes a crime, not on the instruments he may use in carrying it out. If you put your children in a tiger’s cage, you will be guilty of murdering them, not the tiger, who will merely have obeyed his biologically-determined instinct. If you hire a thug to kill them, you will be guilty of the murder, although the thug will also be executed to discourage others.\n\nWhile the two sergeants are obviously and properly subject to the death penalty, the gravamen of treason falls on the Aryans who gave them the opportunity and power to obey their natural instincts. Who in the C.I.A. put them in the positions they occupied? Note that if that person is a Jew, he was loyal to his nation and so cannot be guilty of treason to ours. He is a member of a race we may heartily dislike and fear, but which we must also admire for its racial loyalty, which Aryans would emulate, if they were intelligent and fit to survive in the world they gave away.\n\nIf we wish to prosecute for treason in the correct meaning of that word, we must prosecute the member of our race who was responsible, directly or, if through alien subordinates, indirectly for enlisting an Indian and a Negro as trusted operatives of a supposedly American intelligence agency. He should be identified, but it does not necessarily follow that he should be executed. He could defend himself plausibly and even cogently in terms of either the official theory or grim reality. He could allege (1) that as an American he belongs to a nation so mortally diseased that it has elected, consciously or subconsciously, to become extinct, and there could be no harm in expediting its dissolution; or (2) that as an Aryan he was not convinced that the welfare of his race would not be further endangered by perpetuation of the foul swamp in which it has mired itself. He could argue that the sooner the artificial and obscene agglomeration called the United States is shattered, the greater the chance that his race could break the bonds of its present servitude.\n\nOn the Germanic Peoples\nIs There Intelligent Life on Earth?

"How did a gospel music workshop and concert succeed in the small, predominantly white city of Hastings, Nebraska — with about 40 singers from several faith communities swaying, clapping and harmonizing on songs they learned together in a few hours?\n\n“Building partnerships is absolutely critical,” say Chad Dumas and Dawn Vincent Dumas, members of the local Baha’i community. “We know these [churches’] choir directors, and their choir members made up the vast majority of the choir.”\n\nIt helped to bring in Eric Dozier of Tennessee as director for the all-day event June 9. He’s led gospel workshops in many places, with the intention of “drawing people into an experience, making myself, my culture and my music known to them. When they are themselves with me, we find common ground, and move on from there,” he was quoted as saying in a Hastings Tribune article afterward (read the article with a video of the music).\n\nOne great result, the Dumases say, was a feeling of greater unity: “One participant reflected that even though the choir was not diverse in terms of race, it was diverse in terms of views. They mentioned how there were liberals and conservatives, and how we all sang in unity and agreed wholeheartedly with the ideas of oneness and the nobility of human beings.”\n\nIn fact, the Tribune article shared a church music director’s observation that, in his experience, it was “the first time so many denominations have formally joined voices on a project.”\n\nThe seed for the event came from Chad Dumas’ service as an elected delegate to the U.S. Baha’i National Convention in April 2017, where considerable consultation was focused on finding creative ways of sharing the Baha’i vision of a unified and just society.\n\nHe and his wife consulted and brainstormed, and in August “Chad woke one morning with a clear vision to host a Hastings Interfaith Choral Festival,” the couple shares.\n\nWhy a concert? “I was a music teacher, so, yes, I have that background,” says Chad Dumas. “I’m not sure how much that influenced this, though, as I haven’t been in a classroom for nearly 15 years now. I really think it was Baha’u’llah guiding the vision through a dream — having woken up with such a clear idea that we needed to do this.”\n\nStill, a foundation had to be in place before that kind of idea could get enough support to get dozens of people involved. In this case, Chad Dumas had been building relationships for years with the directors of church choirs.\n\n“Because of my role as an administrator in the public schools, I had worked with the choir directors” who led school as well as church choirs, he says. “This was just a natural next step working together.\n\n“Plus, Dawn and my work with the founding and ongoing leadership with the Hastings Multicultural Association was key, since many of the circles of people cross each other.”\n\nDoors, then, were open for the Dumases to consult with choir directors on how this might be organized. They found partners from one Presbyterian and two United Methodist churches. Once the group collectively gave the green light, Dozier was engaged to lead the event. Much as with workshops he has led in cities across the globe, the plan was for participants to learn together about the gospel music tradition, rehearse gospel songs, then perform them the same afternoon.\n\n“In the meantime,” say the Dumases, “one choir director, from First Presbyterian Church, talked to his leadership and they offered to pay Eric’s honorarium for the day.” That director also invited Dozier to speak to the congregation on Sunday morning, and he accepted.\n\nFrom there it was all about implementation: advertising and publicity; arranging for a space, equipment and food; printing programs, etc.\n\nNow several participants are asking about making the concert ongoing. A few have inquired about other activities initiated by the Baha’i community.\n\nAll this is music to the ears of Chad and Dawn Vincent Dumas. “Some people were highly skeptical about the Baha’is hosting this,” they reflect. “Now we have laid a foundation where people know that we won’t be proselytizing, and future interfaith activities have an opportunity to build from this.”"

"Republican politicians in the United States have split with Donald Trump over Jamal Khashoggi's killing, publicly questioning and raising concerns about the US president's continued embrace of Saudi Arabia in light of the gruesome murder.\n\nThe US president has also repeatedly cast doubts on the CIA's assertion that bin Salman, also known as MBS, ordered Khashoggi's murder.\n\nOn Sunday, several US senators - including members of Trump's own Republican party - rejected his attempts to discredit the US intelligence agency's findings, however.\n\n\"I disagree with the president's assessment. It's inconsistent with the intelligence I've seen\" implicating the crown prince, Republican Senator Mike Lee said on NBC's Meet the Press television show.\n\n\"Look, the president is not being honest with the country about the murder of Jamal Khashoggi,\" said Democratic Congressman Adam Schiff on CNN's State of the Union programme. \"What's driving this?\"\n\nSchiff, who is set to become chairman of the House Intelligence Committee when Democrats regain control of the chamber in January, has promised investigations into the Khashoggi case, as well as whether Trump's personal financial interests are dictating his Saudi policy.\n\nThe President is not being honest with the country about the murder of Khashoggi. Siding with autocrats over his own intel agencies makes him weak, not strong. Allies don’t trust us and enemies don’t fear us.\n\nIs he motivated by family financial interests? Congress must find out. pic.twitter.com/ZrGXayUBzm\n\nThe critical comments hint at a growing divide between the Trump administration and US lawmakers from the country's two major parties, who have been at odds over the US's response to the Khashoggi case.\n\nA prominent columnist for the Washington Post, Khashoggi was murdered inside his country's consulate in Istanbul on 2 October.\n\nSaudi officials have repeatedly denied that the crown prince had any knowledge of the plan to murder Khashoggi or cover up the crime, but human rights groups, journalists, UN experts and others have pointed the finger at MBS, saying it's impossible he was not involved.\n\nSince Trump promised to stand by Riyadh, several US lawmakers have called for Congress to take additional action to get to the bottom of what happened.\n\nOn the weekend, Republican Senator Joni Ernst told CNN that the US needs \"to look into this further,\" even though he said Saudi Arabia is a strategic US partner\n\n\"We also are a very strong nation when it comes to human rights, when it comes to the rule of law,\" Ernst said. \"And if there are indicators that the prince was involved in this murder then we need to absolutely consider further action.\"\n\n\"Making the realist case is a different thing than being so weak that we failed to tell the truth,\" Sasse said on Fox News Sunday.\n\nMBS \"contributed to murdering somebody abroad and it is not strength to sort of mumble past that,\" he continued. \"Strength is telling the truth even when it's hard.\"\n\nThe president is not being honest with the country about the murder of Jamal Khashoggi ... What's driving this?\n\nOther Republican senators, including Lindsey Graham, Rand Paul and Bob Corker, have been unsparing in their assessments of Saudi Arabia's involvement in Khashoggi's killing, saying MBS must have been involved.\n\n\"I never thought I’d see the day a White House would moonlight as a public relations firm for the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia,\" Corker, the current chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, who is set to retire next year, wrote on Twitter after Trump's comments on Tuesday.\n\nGraham also said that while international diplomacy requires dealing with \"bad actors and imperfect situations,\" the US should not lose its \"moral voice\" at the world stage.\n\n\"While Saudi Arabia is a strategic ally, the behavior of the Crown Prince – in multiple ways – has shown disrespect for the relationship and made him, in my view, beyond toxic,\" he wrote on Twitter.",

"Hong Kong’s air quality saw general improvements in 2018, with levels of most air pollutants keeping within their target limits, except for ozone and nitrogen dioxide.\n\nAccording to statistics released by the Environmental Protection Department on Friday, levels of ozone rose for the third straight year. The concentration reached 52 microgrammes per cubic metre, the highest level on record since 1999.",
null,
"“The short-term situation of ozone exceeding limits is a rather serious problem, and we need to work with Guangdong Province authorities,” Ho said, noting that some ozone originated from neighbouring areas.\n\nNitrogen dioxide levels were also recorded to be twice the AQO limit last year, despite the numbers going on a downward trend.\n\n“Roadside concentration of nitrogen dioxide is relatively high, despite going down 30 per cent in the last five years,” Ho added.",
null,
"Aside from nitrogen dioxide, three major types of air pollutants – namely sulphur dioxide, fine particulates and respirable particulates- were found to be within their AQO limits last year.\n\nThe three types of pollutants also recorded a slight dip in concentration.\n\nThe Air Quality Health Index (AQHI) in 2018 also recorded minor improvements. Ho said that the AQHI recorded levels of “high”, “very high” or “serious” for 2.1 per cent of the year, which was less than the three per cent in 2017.\n\nRoadside monitoring stations saw the same figure fall from 4.3 per cent in 2017 to 2.8 per cent last year.\n\nTung Chung, Yuen Long and Tuen Mun suffered the worst air pollution, with the EPD attributing the cause to their proximity to the Pearl River Delta.",
null,
"The Environmental Bureau released a clean air plan for Hong Kong in 2013, with target figures to hit by 2020.\n\nHo on Friday said there was no need to tighten the reduction target for ozone, and that his department will continue to tackle vehicle emissions and other sources of pollutants.\n\nConcern group the Clean Air Network said in response that the government should take responsibility for the high ozone levels.\n\n“Ozone is the by-product of nitrogen oxides and volatile organic compounds. The main reason for ozone levels reaching a 19-year high is that the Environmental Protection Department could not control the high levels of nitrogen oxides,” the group said in a statement on Friday.\n\n“The reason why ozone levels have repeatedly broken records is that the Hong Kong government did not halt the increase in road vehicles, and did not tackle the high levels of roadside air pollution.”"

"The candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Senator Smart Adeyemi, has won the Kogi West senatorial district election.\n\nThe Returning Officer of the election, Professor Olajide Lawal, announced this on Saturday at the collation centre in Kogi State.\n\nAccording to him, Senator Adeyemi polled a total of 88,373 votes to beat Senator Dino Melaye of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) who scored 62,133 votes.\n\nAmbassador Rufus Aiyenigba of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) came third in the poll with 659 votes and was trailed by John Olabode and Adeyemi Taiwo of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) and Nigeria Elements Progressive Party (NEPP who) garnered 262 and 119 votes respectively.\n\nThe Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) declared the APC candidate as the winner of the keenly contested election two weeks after the people of the senatorial district went to the poll.\n\nSee the result below:",
null,
"This came after the supplementary poll conducted by INEC following the November 16 rerun election which failed to produce a winner.\n\nIt was said to have been marred by violence and other alleged electoral malpractices.\n\nAlthough the results of the poll favoured Senator Adeyemi who polled 80,118 votes as against Senator Melaye’s 59,548 votes, the returning officer had said that he was constrained by law to declare a winner.\n\nHe explained that the margin of 20,570 votes between the two candidates was lower than the number of cancelled votes in 53 polling units of the 20 registration.\n\nFollowing the victory of the APC candidate in the rerun poll and upon receiving the certificate of return, Senator Adeyemi will replace Senator Melaye as the lawmaker representing Kogi West senatorial district in the National Assembly.\n\nINEC’s decision to conduct a fresh election in the senatorial district was in line with the order of the Court of Appeal in Abuja, which dismissed an appeal filed by Senator Melaye challenging the nullification of his victory on February 23. during the general elections.\n\nReacting to the outcome of the poll, APC National Chairman, Adams Oshiomhole, congratulated Senator Adeyemi on behalf of the party.\n\nIn a statement, he described the victory as “well-deserve” and thanked the people of the senatorial district for their support for the party and its candidate.\n\nRead the statement below:\n\nI congratulate our newly elected Senator, Smart Adeyemi on his well-deserved victory in the Kogi West re-run election which held today.\n\nThis victory has again affirmed the general acceptance of our great party, by the great people of Kogi State who just a few weeks ago voted massively for our governorship candidate, Governor Yahaya Bello, who was re-elected for a second term.\n\nI have always believed in the ability of the people of Kogi West to elect leaders who will make them proud in the Senate and not the defeated Senator Melaye who is among the 16 Senators who rebelled against our party.\n\nAs it stands today, the broom has swept away the entire 16 Senators, Dino being the last, who tried to destabilise our democracy for their personal interest, jettisoning the interest of the electorate.\n\nOn behalf of our great party the APC, I congratulate my brother and friend, Senator Smart Adeyemi once again and we look forward toward working with you in this resolve by our dear President, Muhammadu Buhari to take the nation to the NEXT LEVEL.\n\nNational Chairman of the APC"

"\"2001 between Kubrick and Clarke\" is available in english!\n\nThe English edition of 2001 between Kubrick and Clarke: The Genesis, Making and Authorship of a Masterpiece by myself and Filippo Ulivieri is out now, with a foreword by 'Moon-Watcher' himself, Dan Richter!",
null,
"What the book is about:\n\n\nThe story of how 2001: A Space Odyssey came to be made is in many ways as epic as the events portrayed in the film itself—and until now, just as mysterious. In 1964, with Dr. Strangelove ready for release, Stanley Kubrick was uncertain about what his next project would be, and considered making a film dealing with several contemporary themes; it was only when he encountered Arthur C. Clarke that he decided to make a science fiction film. Yet it took more than four years for 2001 to reach the screen—a productive and creative odyssey that involved experimentation, last-minute rethinks, strokes of genius, quarrels, ultimatums, feats of will, and mental breakdowns.\n\nDrawing extensively from never before seen material, including production documents and private correspondences, 2001 between Kubrick and Clarke: The Genesis, Making and Authorship of a Masterpiece gives for the first time a complete account of the two authors’ creative collaboration; one which casts lights on their on-again, off-again relationship, as well as revealing new information about the genesis, production, and reception of the first and most important film about space, the origin of humankind and its destiny among the stars.",

"\"Wow! What a great book. I was there for over a year and I learned things I didn't know from it. The interplay between Stanley Kubrick and Arthur C. Clarke is detailed as never before. Bravo Filippo and Simone!\" -- Dan Richter, 'Moon-Watcher' and coreographer of the 'Dawn of Man' sequence.\n\n\"Much like the film itself, this book by two leading Kubrick researchers takes its readers on a journey. By sidestepping the accumulated mythology about the making of 2001: A Space Odyssey and by letting the meticulously researched facts speak for themselves, 2001 between Kubrick and Clarke takes us deep into the creative process behind one of the greatest of all cinematic masterpieces. We are introduced to a wide range of collaborative relationships, none more complex and intriguing than that between Stanley Kubrick and Arthur C. Clarke. Our appreciation of their enormous achievement is enhanced - but as to what it all means, the book, like the film, challenges us to come up with our own answers.\" -- Peter Krämer, author of the BFI Film Classics volume on '2001: A Space Odyssey'.\n\nFilippo Ulivieri (1977) is Italy's leading expert on Stanley Kubrick. Since 1999, he has been running archiviokubrick.it, a database of factual information about the life and work of Stanley Kubrick. His research on '2001: A Space Odyssey', 'A Clockwork Orange', Kubrick's unrealised films and the myths surrounding his public image have been presented in several international conferences and published in Italian and English. He is the author of Stanley Kubrick and Me: Thirty Years at His Side (Arcade Publishing, 2016), the biography of Emilio D'Alessandro, personal assistant to the director. He is co-writer of S is for Stanley (Alex Infascelli, 2015), winner of the David di Donatello award for Best Documentary Feature.\n\nSimone Odino (1974) works as a librarian in Bologna. For the past five years he has been researching '2001: A Space Odyssey', visiting archives in the U.S., England and Italy and interviewing cast and crew members. This book was possible thanks to his visit to the 'Arthur C. Clarke Collection of Sri Lanka' at the Smithsonian Air & Space Museum. He gave papers in the conferences 'Stanley Kubrick: A Retrospective' (De Montfort University, Leicester, 2016) and 'Stanley Kubrick: Nouveaux Horizons' (Université Bordeaux Montaigne, Bordeaux, 2017), and was a guest speaker at the event 'Kubricks 2001: 50 Jahre A Space Odyssey' (Deutsches Filmmuseum, Frankfurt am Main, 2018). He has been running the website 2001italia.it since 2013.\n\n\nThe book is available worldwide through Amazon, and in the United States in classic book shops, too."

"At 11:58pm Saturday, 10 September 2006, I pulled an ATM receipt at WAMU South Beach to mark the end of a long day’s ride around the Sunshine State. I logged 1,095 miles in 16 hours and 7 minutes, earning upon certification another Iron Butt SaddleSore 1000 certificate. The entire route was within Florida borders and never intersected or crossed over itself, so it should qualify for the in-state FL-1000 designation. Here’s the route, leg by leg:\n\nThanks to a couple of careless cagers, my ride got off to a very slow start. An accident on SR836 had traffic backed up forever, and by the time I weaved through the cars and down side street detours to SR826, IH-75 and finally the Alligator Alley toll booth, the first 47 miles of my ride had eaten almost an hour of time. Fortunately, for the next 109 miles across the Alley then north to Fort Myers, I had clear roads and a good opportunity to twist the throttle and make up lost time.\n\nFrom Fort Myers north to Alachua, I rode through 259 miles of IH-75 freeway congested by eighteen wheelers, Gator fans and other cagers, many of whom were apparently too busy or too distracted to pay attention to their driving. I tried to stay in the left-hand lane, so I could make time while only having to defend on the right. Even so, on several occasions I had to hit my horn or otherwise awaken inattentive weavers. And three different times, cagers with cell phones glued to their ears–wheeling and dealing, or simply running their mouths–came right on over into my lane. It was as if I didn’t exist, or more likely, as if they didn’t care. I swerved out of harm’s way each time, but only barely so.\n\nFrom Alachua to Fort White, then westbound on US-27 to Perry and US-98 to Medart, I left the frantic freeways for awhile to enjoy a scenic ride down two-lane byways built for simpler times. The motorists along these roads seemed to be from a totally different tribe than the communication-crazed cell phone addicts whose indifference had nearly done me in. Yes, these country folks were courteous and considerate cagers indeed! Or so I thought, until…\n\nI was riding north on US-319 through Crawfordville, making only about 45 mph due to slow traffic and a wet road. Suddenly the black-trimmed, bright yellow Asian Hummer knock-off in front of me braked hard and made a quick right turn. He gave no signal to warn me, but I was able to avoid ramming his rear end by veering right to the shoulder and stopping just short of his turning point.\n\nI felt an urge to express my dissatisfaction with this cager’s negligence, so I rolled into the strip center behind him. He must have suspected the purpose of my proximity, because rather than continuing left into a parking space, he quickly wheeled right, jumped a concrete curb, and then plowed through a ditch to get away! He didn’t go far, though, because the small lot he escaped to had no exit. I came up on his left and stopped with my front wheel perpendicular to the driver’s door, close enough to ram, but far enough away to maneuver. I stood up from my saddle, crossed my arms, and waited for the creep to get out of his cage. He didn’t. I motioned for him to exit his vehicle. He declined. So I gestured for him to roll down his window. He did.\n\nWhat peeked out over the tinted glass was the pale face of a kid half my age, maybe half my size, and so wide-eyed that he must have been stoned, scared, terminally stupid, or all of the above. Realizing there could be no honor in carving this punk a new asshole, my anger morphed into disgust. I asked him if his turn signals worked, and he replied with a slobbering blah-blah-blah. I then conveyed in no uncertain terms the importance of respectfully sharing the road with bikers, gunned my engine for emphasis, and headed back to the highway.\n\nA few minutes more and I hit the Capitol Circle in Tallahassee, which took me to US-90 and IH-10 eastward to link with IH-95 near downtown Jacksonville. From there it was a straight shot south to Miami and the Beach. With luck, I had survived another long day in the saddle … and avoided becoming another human sacrifice to the cellular gods."

"Dude, you are an immature fool who has no concept of what it takes to provide you with the freedom to express yourself in your inconsequential newspaper. Words like the “Third Reich” and Presidential “murder” will keep you where you belong, with a very limited forum. You need a serious history lesson dude, why don’t you start with Munich in 1972, since you are ostensibly “opining” in a sports town. How about a real job for you, how about the Marines? Talk is cheap, what have you done lately?\n\nSeventeen teachers from the district were sent to North Carolina for a TAP convention. They had their flights paid for, they were put up at the Hilton Head for the weekend in North Carolina, and I want to know, how many staff could we have hired to help these kids read better?\n\nThere are turn marks that are left, there are ridges that are left. Vail doesn’t want to keep quality employees to keep them over a period of time, they would rather the quantity of employees and only pay them $9 an hour, every year they have new rookies. The problem with that is they used to have quality employees to train those rookies, now this year all they have is rookies, and the grooming is terrible, and to be a resort who claims to be the number one ski area in the country, well that’s just downright pathetic. Paul Fillion should resign.\n\n$7 million dollars. Hmmm. Should probably go to the West Vail Fire Station. Maybe a recreation area, indoor pools, weight rooms that are affordable for people who actually live here, but none to the library because they don’t let us use their own library anyways. Thanks.\n\nAt the recent dog control open house in Eagle, I was reminded of the famous line in a new TV show, “It’s Sunday morning at the Pentagon, can’t you just feel the love?” The atmosphere was hostile, the remarks snide. I understand the love the dog owners have for their pets, but it appears to have completely blinded them to the needs of others. Specifically, it has blinded them to the needs of dog owners who prefer to keep their dogs leashed. Some dogs just don’t play well with others, and it has blinded them to the vulnerability of children and the elderly. Children are little, and not as strong as a 120-pound dog. Some of the elderly are frail. These people need to look at the children and seniors in their own extended families, and ask themselves honestly, how would this person deal with being jumped on by a friendly, 120-pound dog? What is more shocking is that the town staff, who should know better, have not considered these concerns in their proposal.\n\nRegarding the lady that wrote about the nudist colony in the gyms and rec. centers. Yeah, it’s true. It’s a nudist show. Extroverts. You just need to put your head down and not look up. That’s what I do, because it is quite disgusting when someone’s bending over for 5 or 10 minutes putting their lotion on and doing something else. You know? Not everybody likes to look at the Moon, and some other planets, like Uranus.\n\nI think this MTV thing on Vail Mountain is ridiculous. That’s just what we need is more young, reckless kids on the mountain. It’s not the MTV generation it used to be. There are some really childish kids watching these shows now without a brain in their head, and I think that Vail doesn’t need to have stuff like that. We’re a classy resort. We don’t want a bunch of high school kids running around on the mountain unsupervised. Thanks.\n\nSuzanne Mueller here, Matterhorn Circle. Just want to give thanks, since it’s Thanksgiving, to all the truck drivers that deliver all the stuff that comes to our valley. Thank you very much for driving so cautiously and courteously through our valley. Thanks!",

"In Notre Dame’s only game last week, Allen registered her first career double-double with 16 points and a career-high 10 rebounds as the Irish earned a 64-61 victory at Seton Hall. Allen put Notre Dame ahead for good on a foul-line jumper with 3:09 to play, then added a key insurance bucket at the 1:55 mark. In addition, the 5-11 wing collected three crucial defensive rebounds while leading an Irish defense that held Seton Hall scoreless on four of its final six possessions.\n\nFor the season, Allen leads the team and ranks 16th in the BIG EAST in scoring (14.4 ppg.), while also collecting a team-high 6.0 rebounds per game. Besides her scoring totals, Allen is among the conference leaders in steals (tie-fifth, 2.43 spg.) and free throw percentage (sixth, .833). She has scored in double figures 12 times in 14 games this season and has been a strong presence on the glass of late, averaging 7.0 rebounds in the past six Irish outings.\n\nFollowing its third week-long break in the past month, Notre Dame (10-4, 1-0 BIG EAST) will play three of its next four games at home, starting Wednesday at 7 p.m. (ET) when it welcomes Cincinnati to the Joyce Center. Tickets for that game, and all remaining Irish women’s basketball games, may be purchased in advance by contacting the Notre Dame Athletics Ticket Office (574-631-7356) or by clicking here."

"It owes its appearance to black slavery and Prohibition. It was originally sold in chemist’s shops as a remedy for nerves and impotency, and today 80% of Earth population drinks this beverage. World brand “Coca-Cola” celebrates 129 years of existence this year.\n\nAs far back as in 1886 a modest pharmacologist from Atlanta and also morphine addict John Pemberton put together the ingredients of “Coca-cola” for the first time. He used coca leaves to treat his addiction and cola nuts brought by slaves from Africa were rumored to be one great hangover treatment. Sure enough, there is no trace of either coca or cola in the modern version of the drink.\n\nThe resulting thick syrup didn’t enjoy distinctive demand: only nine glasses a day were successfully sold. But once a customer asked to add soda to the ropy substance – that’s how “Coca-Cola” became aerated and subsequently tasty and popular. Soon Prohibition arrived not only to boost sales of soft drinks but also to give the green light to replacement of pernicious alcohol with “harmless” cocaine.\n\nIt was only in 1903 when general public finally got exasperated and coca leaves started being preliminarily “squeezed”. Sales level wasn’t at all affected by the novelty: “Coca-Cola” had become Number 1 drink in America by that moment. The time is ripe to recall the name of Asa Candler, who bought out the recipe of the popular product from its creator’s widow on January, 31, 1893 and registered the trade mark thus providing an impetus to creation of worldwide company.\n\nComposition of the iconic sparkler is steeped with legends. Allegedly, the exact formula is known solely to two company owners, with each of them knowing only a half of it and somewhere in a secret safe the recipe is preserved that Pemberton wrote with his own hand. Funny thing, but the list of ingredients can be relatively easily found in the Internet: coca leaves extract, ginger and lime juice, sugar, caffeine, vanilla caramel, water. There’s nothing exotic, furthermore, nothing remarkable. Take at least the fact that, according to researches, the majority of people are unable to distinguish “Coke” from “Pepsi”.\n\nIt stands to greater reason to suggest that the drink obtained its wild popularity not so much due to its unique taste but rather due to properly chosen development strategy. In addition, Robert Woodruff who was heading the company for the whole 60 years, turned out to be an excellent advertising expert and innovator. It was he who came up with ideas of selling six-packs of bottles; fluted metal cap that were easier to open; open coolers and outdoor freezers.Even the renowned image of the bearded Santa Clause in a red-and-white outfit was created especially for the “Coke’s” Christmas commercial in 1931.\n\nRecognizable “sowbelly” bottle has its history as well. One theory is that the designer simply confused English words coca and cocoa and created the container in the shape of cacao pod. According to the other one, graceful features were drawn from the trumpet skirt fashionable in early 20th century.\n\nBut sophistication and shape flow of all the “Coca-Cola” bottle variations fades into insignificance when calling to mind all the horrors told about its content: as if it dissolves coins, cleans from rust and scale like it’s a piece of cake. But there is no defense for the majority of myths and the orthophosphoric acid present in the drink is ten times less active than table vinegar. Once Turkish authorities filed a law suit against the company saying that cochineal scale insect (carmine) is used as a colorant while religion prohibits Muslims to eat insects. It turned out that in order to get the color a simple burnt sugar is added thus the conflict abated of itself.\n\nToday Pemberton’s offspring became an integral attribute of every fast food. At the same time, if the writer victor Pelevin is right, “in Eastern European countries “Coca-Cola” is rather an ideological fetish than a refreshment beverage”. True, it hit our market only in 1988 and was until recently associated with “the taste of freedom”. However, in the rest of the world either with all the time that had passed, or due to the growing number of competitor drinks, or in the forefront of healthy lifestyle, red-and-white brand has long ago lost a tincture of being something special and a bottle of cola isn’t a must-have in every backpack. Although, how do you know that, when telling you all this, I’m not sipping the notorious “Coke” from a straw?\n\nVeuve Clicquot: Champagne of Merry WidIow\nToday’s foodies probably would have disdained to drink this champagne in the beginning of 19th century: an elegant golden wine was concealed by cloudy veil of yeast introduced into the blend to produce carbon dioxide, a delightful bouquet of fruit and vanilla tones was destroyed by rough off-flavours. Such a product could not satisfy the refined tastes of wealthy public and, as a consequence...\n\nBrand history: Baileys\nIt is available in virtually every fine restaurant, café or home bar. Among a variety of various containers with as various kinds of spirits, the real connoisseur will off the bat recognize the famous bottle with the label that has green landscape on it and where writing Baileys shines. This liqueur is made on the basis of whisky and cream, for its unique palatability traits gastronomists nicknamed it “creamy miracle”."

"However, like others in the primary sector, it faces some hurdles during the next few years due to Covid-19.\n\nHortNZ chair Barry O’Neil says the sector has got all the elements of success going for it – such as land, climate, great soils and a world that wants to consume NZ horticultural products. But he concedes that the sector still has to get through at least the next couple of years, which he says will be characterised by ongoing disruption to supply chains caused by Covid.\n\nO’Neil says shipping schedules are being disrupted and space is limited, which means it is taking longer for perishable goods to get to market. He says exporters depending on air freight have to face the problem of the drop off in flights because only freighters are carrying their cargo now. This has resulted in a significant increases in costs compared to what was previously the case.\n\n“I believe the schedules of shipping and airlines won’t be back into normal in 2021 and it think it will be early days if they can get themselves better placed in 2022,” O’Neil told Hort News. “But even then it will still be a struggle for them. Unfortunately, I think that until we have got confidence in a vaccine I can’t see the situation changing overnight.”\n\nO’Neil says some sectors, such the kiwifruit, are better placed than others because Zespri charters a number of ships to carry its produce to Asia and Europe and those direct charters will be less affected. He says other hort sectors have tried this but believes there is a need for smaller groups to work collectively to see if they can also charter refrigerated container ships like Zespri.\n\n“I think the Government will more likely support that type of water storage approach, whereas in the past there has been concern about the end user of the water.”\n\nNot surprisingly labour looms as another big challenge for the horticulture, with a reduction in the number of recognised seasonal employers (RSE workers) coming into NZ from the Pacific due to Covid. O’Neil says there is a need for automation to do some of the more physical manual jobs because of the lack of RSE workers.\n\nWhile much has been made of getting NZers to take jobs in horticulture, he says that not all workers are fit enough to handle the physical intensity of some of the work which the RSE workers are capable of doing. There is the issue of money with claims that pay is not always good.\n\nHowever, O’Neill points that there is good money to be made – up to $30 an hour – for people with skills and a good work ethic. But it’s not only money – the seasonality of the work and need to relocate to do the work is an issue.\n\n“For example, cherry growers in Central Otago don’t have a residual labour force that is on their back doorstep to come and pick their cherries,” he told Hort News. “The closest centre is probably Dunedin.\n\n“As a sector we have do a whole lot more work on how we can offer permanent roles. For example, if the different horticultural sectors could club together and end up offering effectively permanent work and good accommodation the problem could be solved,” O’Neil says.\n\nWhile a recent MPI report notes that prices for horticultural exports in 2021 will top the $2 billion mark, there is no guarantee that growers will see extra dollars in their pockets.\n\n\"The only light at the end of the tunnel is whether the prices for NZ quality, tasty, safe, nutritious product will go up as well,\" he told Hort News. \"We saw that this past year in a number of our markets where consumers were willing to pay more for our products because of the health aspect of them and the change to a more fresh and healthy diet.\"\n\nO'Neil says everyone is concerned about the global economy due to Covid and whether consumers will have that discretionary spend in their pockets especially if they don't have full time work.\n\n\"On the face of it, unfortunately, it looks like growers will have increased costs and possibly not the corresponding increase in returns.\"\n\nFePs at a glance\n\nFarm Environment Plans (FEPs) are now recognised in legislation as a way for growers to assess their environmental risks, act where required and demonstrate progress on environmental objectives."

"The conference I attended at the Jumeirah Beach Hotel lasted for two days and I was lucky enough to get a view of this hotel at night. After catching the sunset at Burj Al Arab from where I was standing, I turned around and saw the beautiful colors of Jumeirah Beach Hotel at night. The lights that showcase the beauty of the hotel changes every few minutes and while I was standing in the dark from afar, I couldn’t help but admire its beauty.\n\nI remember walking past the lobby of the hotel and smelling the perfume which was obvious but not too strong. I only found out later that this is a five-star hotel. The design of the overall building is like a wave which complements the Burj Al Arab hotel’s sail-shape.\n\nMy camera was still in my hand and I wish I was not prepared for the whole photo opportunity that I relied on the benches and other flat objects in the vicinity to at least get some steady shots of the hotel at night. I even placed my camera on the floor.\n\nI hope I can visit this hotel (and maybe check in even for one night) to take more beautiful photos. Next time I’ll be more armed with a tripod.",

"No, we’re not talking about playing lots of rock music! Today, the day after Twelfth Night (also called St. Distaff’s Day) is that time of year after the holiday festivities when we spinsters must go back to the spindle and wheel. I don’t know, do the ploughboys have to go back to work today too since it’s Monday or do they get to tease us for a whole week until next Monday? I’m not sure of the finer points of Rock Day vs Plough Monday, but I’d rather they keep the firing of the tow to a minimum! However I will keep a bucket of water handy to wet-spin my linen thread or, alternatively, to put out fires and douse my ploughboy if the situation arises.\n\nMeanwhile, I’ve been working on the Auntie90 gloves:",
null,
"I’ve got a couple of fingers done since this photo. I’d forgotten what fiddly things they are! Not too bad though but they do take time to complete. I also got a sad tale from my Birth Mother about her fuzzy burgundy-coloured scarf that I made her 2 years ago. She lost it and wanted a replacement. Unfortunately I found the same yarn but not the colour she wanted so for now she’s getting a blue one:",
null,
"Comments: This blue version is a compromise. I may still hunt for another ball of something fuzzy and burgundy and make another scarf. It’s quick and only takes one ball of yarn. I had about 2” left at the end, barely enough to finish off.\n\nI still need to dye the yarns for The Ninja’s and my Bro-In-Law’s birthday socks, but I haven’t gotten around to that yet. I’ve only just been feeling better enough to be a bit more active and the first priority is the neglected housework. I’m already on the second of 4 loads of laundry and the dishes still await my attention. (And they can darn well wait until I’m good and ready too!) We also went for walks, both on Saturday and Sunday, which felt really good to both creaky body and fuzzy mind. We even spontaneously decided to see a movie while we were out yesterday. “The Golden Compass” is an absolutely fabulous movie! I love me a good fantasy story and this one is intricate and the characters well-fleshed out. I loved that the main character and the main villain are both female. And the special effects were so well done they simply registered as reality. It left me with the expectation of more but didn’t feel truncated at all considering it’s only a portion of the whole story. I haven’t read the books it’s based on yet so I’m only judging it as a film. Two thumbs way up and 5 stars too! Go see it if you haven’t already. Oh yeah, and there’s lots of knitted costumes to ogle in there too.\n\nWhile we were at the mall buying tea and coffee, we were able to grill the saleslady about our favourite Murchie’s shop. Last I’d heard they were in receivership but they have been bought out and it will be business as usual, at least for now. Yay! I’ve been drinking their tea for over 30 years and have my favourites for which there are no substitutes. I was dreading trying to find something new that I liked nearly as much. The coffee situation is similar for T-Man because most of the commercial coffees are darker roasted than he prefers. I could be wrong, but I think there’s a lot more good coffee out there than good tea. Or at least the kind I like, which is a mixture of black and green. And not in teabags either. I like it loose. Kinda like the way I knit.\n\nWhat!!! the \"magic faries\" didn't come by and do all the laundry and housework for you while you were ill. Don't feel bad, they always seem to miss our home too. Glad to hear that you are feeling much better. Take care!\n\nHit the send button too soon.....\"Aunties\" gloves are lookin' good and I FINALLY got the shawl's knitting all done, now for a bath and block!"

"Huffing is a term used to describe the process of inhaling chemical vapors through the mouth and/or nose. Chemicals are poured onto a rag or into a bag and then held over the nose/mouth to be inhaled. They can also be inhaled directly by sniffing vapors from their containers or by spraying directly into the mouth or nose.\n\nThere are four basic types of chemicals that are used as inhalants.\n\nMost of these substances occur in the hundreds of everyday products we have lying around our houses. What makes them so dangerous is that they are so readily available and cheap. For this reason, teenagers are not aware of the dangers that exist.\n\nWho participates in huffing?\n\nHuffing is the 3rd most abused substance by teenagers and is an increasing problem in today’s society. According to the National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH/NHSDA), “inhalants had the youngest average age at first use (16.0 years)” and “75% of recent initiates were under 18 when they first used”.(1)\n\nA similar study done by NSDUH in 2002-2004 showed the following statistics on who is more susceptible to start using inhalants.(3)\n\nWhat are the effects?\n\nEffects from abusing inhalants can be both short term and long term. These effects vary upon the substance abused and in what concentrations they are abused. The desired effect that teenagers are trying to achieve from using these substances is similar to alcohol intoxication. Of course this feeling comes at a high price. Using inhalants can be very deadly, even the first time they are used.\n\nLong-term effects of huffing are quite damaging to the major organs, including the brain, heart, lungs, kidneys and liver. Huffing can also lead to:\n\nWarning signs of a teen huffing\n\nIf you suspect that your teenager might be involved in this form of drug abuse, here are some signs you may want to look out for. Some of these signs are apparent directly after using an inhalant; others show up down the road.\n\nEarly education is key in the prevention of this type of abuse. Making our teenagers aware about the dangers associated with inhalants can increase the chances of them not abusing in the first place.\n\nTreatment programs for this specific type of drug abuse are hard to come by as treatment is quite complex. Consult your medical or mental health professional if you suspect a problem exists. Long-term care is necessary as withdrawal symptoms can last for weeks and relapse is quite common.\n\nWhat is Huffing Sources:"

"DAQMAN BAGS BETDAQ VALUE FOR 70 POINTS PROFIT IN TWO DAYS: Daqman declared a ‘copper-bottomed’ bet yesterday and warned of a ‘Frankel Hurricane’. The result was two winners at York for the second day running and a total profit of 70.25 to recommended stakes in the two days. Yet again the winning odds underlined morning BETDAQ value.\n\n⭕ 3.10 York (Yorkshire Cup): No Stradivarius this year (winner of this the last twice), and no representatives for Team Gosden and Sir Michael Stoute, who have had three winners each in nine seasons. Any positives?\n\nNayef Road The absence of Stradivarius is the positive for Nayef Road, who has been placed behind him three times in his last four starts, second in the Ascot Gold Cup and the Goodwood Cup and third when they made their seasonal debuts in the Sagaro Stakes in April.\n\nSantiago Third last July when Stradivarius and Nayef Road were one-two in the Goodwood Cup.\n\nThe Queen’s Vase and Irish Derby winner has raced exclusively at today’s trip of 1m 6f since, fourth in the St Leger and the same on his reappearance run, which he usually wins but served to put an edge on him this time.\n\nSir Ron Priestley One of the finds of the season so far, with 2-2 to make it seven wins from his last nine starts. Second in the 2019 St Leger, a head in front of Nayef Road.\n\nLooks due for an upgrade in the ratings after all-the-way win over Pyledriver in the Jockey Club Stakes, but has to give 3lb each to Nayef Road and Santiago, making this his toughest task to date\n\nSpanish Mission The five-year-old entire’s rating has remained the same (110) since he beat Nayef Road in July 2019 but failed by half a length to confirm the placings on 3lb worse terms in the Goodwood Stakes. Won the Doncaster Cup in September and is fit from Meydan.\n\nWells Farrh Go Tim Easterby had a tremendous 38-1 double on his home track yesterday with Copper Knight and Winter Power, but hard to see this six-year-old finding enough to get involved here.\n\nListed and Group-3 winning form was on firm ground and he has been beaten a total of 97 lengths in his last three starts.\n\n⭕ 1.40 York Anything can win this (and usually does, from 11-10 on favourite to 33-1). Having said that, one trainer does particularly well and one equine family with that very stable is bidding for a double.\n\nIt makes you think you’d be on to something that’s trying to win and not just on an educational spin in this two-year-old fillies test.\n\n⭕ 2.10 York More fillies; this time with a clue from the draw. In small fields, they tend to string out on the rail and stalls 1, 2 and 3 have won five times in seven seasons.\n\nThe grey Snow Lantern, by Frankel out of her stable’s 1,000 Guineas winner Sky Lantern, and from the one stall today, was a comfortable winner at Newbury in April and the mile here suggests her route is to the Coronation Stakes and not the Oaks, though she is being quoted for both.\n\nLove Is You (stall 2) represents Classic form, back to her optimum trip: third in the Nell Gwyn (7f), just behind the Guineas runner-up, Saffron Beach. Creative Flair (stall 3) is a gritty little filly but was easy to back this morning.\n\n⭕ 2.40 York There was a gamble on Makram over a mile at Newmarket in April but he was slow away then short of room, his running style calling out for this extra quarter mile.\n\nSatano Japan ‘could be anything’, with Sir Michael Stoute in fine form this week, and Tim Easterby puts cheekpieces on Fishable, narrowly beaten over the CD at York in October (soft), after scoring twice on good ground.\n\nYorkshireman William Haggas has won with Ilaraab and been beaten a neck with Nahaarr from three attempts on the Knavesmire this week,. And his Irish Admiral has a touch of class and is unexposed.\n\nPivoine has to be backed to a spare pound now that he’s dropped 12lb below the mark off which he won over the distance here in July, 2019. It was his second big-race success on the Knavesmire after winning there the previous summer.\n\nNot much else to shout about since but, as trainer Andrew Balding told the Stewards: ‘He is suited by a return to York’.",

"Yesterday I became a cheese maker!\n\nThe FSC Book Club is off and running! I have to admit, ever since I cracked the spine on Alana Chernila’s The Homemade Pantry, I’ve been a tad obsessed. I carry it around in my bag for some light reading. I read it on the train in the hopes of my train neighbor inquiring about it. I read it aloud to Heather, whether she likes it or not. Needless to say, I was a bit eager to get started. So, despite the fact that we were having our friend Carrie over for dinner and that I had already committed to making homemade samosas with a lentil side dish (recipes coming soon), I went for it!\n\nRicotta was the first cheese that Alana made at home and it is the first recipe in her book. I was drawn to its simplicity of ingredients (no rennet or cultures required) and process. Plus, who doesn’t love some fresh ricotta cheese?! I figured that if it went well, we could serve it to Carrie for dessert with some berries and honey. So, despite the otherwise kitchen-heavy day, I carved out some ricotta time. Here’s how it went.\n\nFirst things first, Alana offers a trick via “The Cheese Queen” (Ricki Carrol) to prevent scorching your pot. Simply place an ice cube in the bottom of your room temperature pot until it melts completely. Leave the water in the bottom of the pot when you add your ingredients and be sure to stir without touching the bottom. That keeps the bottom of your pot protected as your milk magically turns into cheese.",
null,
"While your ice is melting, squeeze some fresh lemon. You need 1/3 of a cup of lemon juice, which should be about 1 1/2 – 2 lemons. I apparently had some less juicy ones, since it took me three. Perhaps a juicer would been helpful here, but instead I had lovely lemon-scented hands for the rest of the day.",
null,
"Get out the rest of your ingredients and gadgets. This includes a half gallon of milk, cheesecloth, a fine sieve, a thermometer, and some salt (optional). I chose not to include the optional 1/2 cup of heavy cream.",
null,
"Add your milk and lemon juice to your iced pot and stir for 5 seconds without touching the bottom. Place the pot over low heat and attach the thermometer. Heat the milk to 175 degrees, which should take 40-50 minutes.",
null,
"Beware: every stovetop is different. I’m working with an electric stove, which I believe gets much hotter much quicker than gas. I hate it, but we’re renters, so c’est la vie. About twenty minutes in, I started to feel like the temperature was getting too high too quickly, so I turned down the stove to the lowest heat possible and that seemed to do the trick. But then the temperature started dropping instead of rising, so I put it up just slightly. This seemed to work. I also stirred the pot (careful to avoid touching the bottom) once or twice during this time.",
null,
"All was going well when one LARGE scare-the-living-daylights-out-of-you bubble crept to the surface and exploded. With my heart racing and mind my panicking, I turned the heat off for a second and then back on. Hey, I never claimed to have grace under pressure! Anyway, I returned the heat to its very lowest setting and it slowly crept up to 175 degrees with a few more bubbles, but nothing too catastrophic. Even with all my temperature fluctuation, it actually did take about 43 minutes.\n\nAt this point, Alana instructs you to adjust the temperature to medium-high heat until the thermometer reads 205 degrees, which should take 3-5 minutes. Well, I was NOT jacking up the heat that high on my sensitive electric stove. I barely nudged the temp and crossed my fingers and hoped for the best. I did have a few more big bubbles and felt like I was holding my breath for the next 7 minutes, but it did quickly reach 205 degrees and then I promptly took it off the heat.",
null,
"I let the pot sit for about 10 minutes and then lined my sieve with two pieces of damp cheesecloth and started straining. Unfortunately, we have misplaced our slotted spoon (Heather insists that the movers stole it…?), which would have made this process infinitely easier. Once you’ve finished straining, you can salt it, should you choose.",
null,
null,
null,
"I am a cheese maker!\n\nAlana encourages you to save the whey. It stays good in the fridge for up to 2 weeks, the freezer for 6 months, and is packed with nutrition, protein, and flavor. She recommends using it instead of milk or water in your homemade breads, in place of stock in your soups, or even in your smoothies instead of juice or milk. But be careful – it looks a bit like lemonade. ; )",
null,
"After some sampling, I declared this ricotta DELICIOUS! It has a really nice flavor that is somehow also very subtle. The texture perked right up after a few hours in the fridge. We served it topped with blueberries, some local honey, and a touch of cinnamon. Did I mention it was delicious?",
null,
null,
"So… Was it worth it?\n\nDefinitely. Especially on a day that I’m not also making a full from scratch dinner. To be honest, though, I’m not sure it would be worth it to make it just to put it in something else, like lasagne. It’s just so good by itself and by the time I was done making it I just wanted to eat it with a spoon. I think that this might become a special, healthy dessert-treat.\n\nIt was also totally worth it just to be able to call myself a cheese maker!\n\nRicotta will keep for 3 – 5 days in the fridge, tightly covered. Good to know, but I’m pretty sure it will be gone by the end of the day."

"Getting inked the souvenir of choice for many\n\nA new report has revealed the growing prevalence of ‘tattourism’ among Australian travellers, with a third of Aussies studied admitting to getting inked whilst abroad.",
null,
"Released by Hostelworld, the report found that nearly one in three (31%) Australians have given in to the temptation of getting a tattoo overseas, while more than one in three (37%) have considered getting one.\n\nOf those who have gotten inked abroad, over half (57%) would strongly consider getting inked again on their next trip.\n\nWhen it comes to the reasons for getting tattoos on holidays, almost a quarter (23%) of Aussie travellers said their tattoo was a permanent souvenir of their experience, with a third (33%) admitting their inking was spontaneous and one in seven saying it was sparked by the desire to have a story to tell of their holiday.\n\nDespite it being a whim for so many, the report found that three in five (59%) travellers “thought about their design for a substantial amount of time”.\n\nPredictably, one in five (20%) Aussie travellers said it was cheaper to get inked abroad, with Bali and New Zealand the favourite tattourism destinations.\n\nThe most popular tattoos for Australian female tourists are inspirational quotes (25%) while men prefer an adaptation of a local culture or religion (21%).\n\n“Other popular images include that of an animal that symbolises their country (35%), lyrics from a song (30%), a character from a TV show (26%) and the logo of their favourite sports team (24%),” the report said.\n\nWhen it comes to other nations, 42% of Americans and 26% of Britons surveyed said they would consider getting inked on their next international holiday."

"Last night I was able to attend a private screening of Gillian Robespierre’s new film, Obvious Child, starring the hilarious Jenny Slate of my favorite viral video, Marcel the Shell, fame. The movie was HILARIOUS.\n\nSlate and Robespierre are going to BLOW UP when this film hits. It was the perfect mix of cringe-worthy, heartbreaking moments, genuinely hilarious dialogue between ALL the characters, and Slate’s PERFECT physical comedy that very few female actors are brave enough to embrace. She was the perfect heroine of the film, despite dealing with an issue that many people might find polarizing – abortion. But even though she was making a decision that some might not agree with, you couldn’t help but root for Donna because she’s 1) oh-so-easy to relate to and 2) funny. When people can find the power to laugh at themselves, the world is their oyster – I think it’s one of the most important qualities a person can have.",
null,
"And Jake Lacy, of The Office fame – a guy I find subtly hilarious in his own right – was the (almost) baby daddy. Not to mention Gaby Hoffman, who is a BRILLIANT actress in not only this gem, but also Girls.\n\nEveryone needs to go see this film ASAP and report back to me about how much you enjoyed it as much as I did. Wrap it before you tap it, y’all.",

"I Wanna Do Everything You Do\n\nI Wanna Do Everything You Do\n\nRodney Atkins’ country song, Watching You, has the following chorus:\n\nAfter talking to a new church plant in central Indianapolis, I feel like this chorus describes them perfectly.\n\nRuah, which in Hebrew means breath or spirit, is a church plant that began and grew at the same time as the COVID restrictions in 2020. They’ve recently moved into their own space… kind of… Maybe it’s best to say that they’ve recently moved into their own neighborhood. The space they’re in is Refinery 46, a community-shared 24/7 come-and-go office and conference space. It’s designed for entrepreneurial start-ups, remote workers, small businesses that don’t need a large office footprint, and is just two blocks from where their church community lives and works. What is most interesting is that they are across the street from a well-marked church building that mostly has online offerings, while Ruah itself is an in-person gathering with absolutely no street presence. Why does that work?!\n\nBecause of the song.\n\nThe song is about an organic discipleship relationship. It’s about living in relationship with someone who is watching and inheriting your behaviors and rhythms in life because they admire Jesus in you. Alexander Breytenbach and Max Gross, the pastors at Ruah, were the buckaroos of Tyler Shirley and Forrest Brown, the pastors at Exit Church in Gas City, IN.\n\nExit Church is one of those churches positioned between two large college campuses, so they have a rotating congregation – four years at max for the year-round congregation to invest in students and then send graduates off to influence their world wherever they settle. Alexander and Max were two of these college students. Max was pursuing his ministry degree when Forrest invited Max into a Sunday evening Bible study designed for a future church plant among college graduates where they were putting down roots – Indianapolis (a vision of Darren Campbell, the pastor who planted Exit Church). After graduation Max had plans to teach in China, but his ministry degree became a barrier to obtaining a visa. Plan B was to go to seminary in Grand Rapids, MI, but God intercepted his plans with a man named Brad. Brad owned a wood floor company and a building for student housing. Both ventures are expressions of business-as-ministry. He purposefully fills the student housing and floor crews with Muslim students and seeds solid believers among them. Brad was inviting Max to plant some seeds with him. It complimented Max’ background in construction and his call to ministry, so instead of moving to Michigan, Max settled in Indianapolis.\n\nMeanwhile, Alexander was teaching with Teach for America and had plans to pursue a medical degree. Forrest got a hold of Alexander at a milestone moment in his life – he had been dating a girl for four years already. “Why not get married to her?” was the simple straight-forward question that Forrest asked at the beginning of his friendship with Alexander. Pause. That’s what Alexander’s brain did. Pause. Why not? Pause. Life change.\n\nNot only did Alexander get married, but he finally caught up to the path Tyler, Forrest, and his wife knew was his – church planting. He probably felt a bit like Moses – unprepared and with all the challenges of inadequacy in front of him. Afterall, he didn’t even have a ministry degree. God didn’t see a problem; he saw a team: Max and Alexander. And God didn’t see inadequacies. Alexander says he was raised to know, love, and memorize Scripture from before being saved (even though they were dead to him then). That was a great complement to a solid discipleship relationship and growth in the knowledge and application of the scriptures through what Alexander terms, “a poor man’s seminary” – books, podcasts, et cetera. Thus was the Sunday evening Bible study among college graduates in Indianapolis passed on to Max and Alexander. Ruah was born.\n\nWhy is this origin story so important to Ruah? Because you replicate what you are. Buckaroos make buckaroos. Ruah has now quadrupled in size, and completely among the 20–30-year-old demographic! That is written with a smile, because when you begin with small numbers you can make audacious claims like that with just a few more people added to your church body. But why not celebrate it?! Remember – Ruah has no street presence. There is not one sign to tell you there is a church meeting in Refinery 46, and they are across from a very well-marked church. How are they quadrupling in size?! Because buckaroos make buckaroos.\n\nAlexander and Max planted Ruah as bi-vocational pastors in their own neighborhood. Just like Tyler and Forrest modeled living out their scriptures in their daily lives, Alexander and Max lived out the scriptures in their daily lives. Just like Tyler and Forrest invited people outside the church context into a deeper relationship, Alexander and Max are inviting people from work and Jiu Jitsu and coffee shops into deeper relationship (with them and with the Lord). Those people are becoming a family dedicated the relentless pursuit of Truth living actively in their everyday lives. In fact, the mission of Ruah is, “A community that runs after the Lord together.” These family members are living out the scriptures in their daily lives and inviting their coworkers into deeper relationship. Together this family is structuring itself for discipleship growth. They meet Sunday afternoons with dinner afterward, a day for a prayer meeting, a day for Bible study, and an additional time in separate gender groups for accountability; and they are also actively social together outside of these times in an organic fashion. It’s truly a community – one that welcomes and lovingly pursues new members as they come to satiate a growing hunger for the Lord because they see this community savoring God and his Word in every aspect of their lives.\n\nOne example of this is Maddie and Jared. Maddie knew Jared from college, but Jared had hit a rough patch in his life. Maddie says, “All I need to do is get him to my guys at Ruah, and God will do the rest.” She saw Jared’s need for encouragement, so she invited him to come to Ruah for that. At church Jared met Tim, who followed-up with Jared over coffee 1-2 weeks later. It was during this time that the whole church rallied around Jared for discipleship, and he became saved. Now Jared is discipling someone else in his own neighborhood, with the support of the community that is Ruah.\n\nThis is how Ruah is growing without having any signage (clever or otherwise). If someone shows up, it’s because someone invited them – someone who is relationally invested in that person’s faith journey. Sundays are designed to feed, strengthen, and equip their people and then to send them out to live it out. “Everything we do,” say the pastors, “fosters a hunger for more truth – even the liturgical elements we use. We’re seeing the outworking of that in their own lives including in romantic relationships and in relationships with people’s parents.”\n\nAnother example is Mark. Mark went from being an atheist to being a strong Biblical leader in his own family. Mark got married to a young believer who had been trying to get him to church. He complained that he could “see right through” every church they visited. When the couple moved to Indianapolis, one of her coworkers invited them to Ruah right as the pastors were beginning a sermon series on Hosea. Mark reflected later, “You said that prophecy is spoken and confirmed later, and you guys live like you believe it.” That statement caused Mark to read Scripture for himself, which transformed him. They have since moved out of state, but it is Mark that is leading his family to find a home in another Biblically centered church body like Ruah.\n\nIt bears repeating, it’s not about the space they use. Ruah does rent office space in Refinery 46 in addition to having access to the community-shared meeting spaces, and their office is open to their church community coming and going. On Mondays and Tuesdays you will find three to four guys meeting at the folding table shoved along the left wall in the large rectangular office or using someone’s second hand office furniture (the chairs ironically remind me of a pew minimized into a chair). Piled on the right wall is the minimal A/V equipment used on Sundays, and a flight of hot sauce (this makes sense if you follow the Hot Ones on YouTube). In the back left corner is the largest bean bag you’ll ever find. Ever. Among this stands an expertly crafted pulpit with “Soli Deo Gloria” engraved on it – an example of the Ruah community using their gifts together. Why do I dedicate a paragraph to mention a “stash” room like this? Because this is all that this age group needs. Nothing fancy; they’ll make it their own. They just want access to each other’s lives and to contribute to the community with their giftedness. They want to be buckaroos – an organic discipleship relationship. It’s about living in relationship with someone who is watching and inheriting your behaviors and rhythms in life because they admire Jesus in you.\n\nAs a later verse goes in Rodney Atkins’ song:\n\nWe got back home and I went to the barn\nI bowed my head and I prayed real hard\nSaid lord please help me help my stupid self\nThen this side of bedtime later that night\nTurning on my son’s scooby doo nightlight\nHe crawled out of bed and he got down on his knees\nHe closed his little eyes, folded his little hands\nAnd spoke to God like he was talking to a friend\nAnd I said son now where’d you learn to pray like that\n\nHe said I’ve been watching you dad, ain’t that cool\nI’m your buckaroo, I wanna be like you\n\nWho are your buckaroos?",

"One More For The Lineup. AEW Signs Another International Star You Probably Know.\n\nAnother country represented. With less than three weeks to go before AEW’s debut event Double Or Nothing, the company’s roster continues to grow. One thing they have done very well so far is sign up all kinds of talent from around the world with a variety of places represented. That’s the case again, as the company has signed another international talent to the roster.\n\nAccording to Pro Wrestling Sheet, AEW has signed South African wrestler Angelico, with the signing being announced soon. Angelico is best known for his time with Lucha Underground though he has since moved to England and also worked with AAA. WWE was also interested in signing Angelico to NXT but did not want to get into a bidding war with AEW over signing him.\n\nI know it’s the common video shown but it’s his signature moment. Check out this crazy spot (well worth seeing if you have seen it before or not):",
null,
"Opinion: That’s quite the signing for the company as Angelico is a rather tall and lanky performer who can work a very athletic style. He was an entertaining star in Lucha Underground and it could be interesting to see where things go in AEW. Angelico might not be a top star but he could be one who helps build up some other stars on the roster, which is quite the important role.\n\nWhat do you think of Angelico? Who do you want to see him face in AEW? Let us know in the comments below.\n\n(Video): One More For Developmental. Another NXT Name To Miss Time With Severe Injury."

"There’s nothing more exciting than combining sex and intelligence, and this story promises them both. David Levy, who is known for his pioneering work on Artificial Intelligence, first in relation to chess programs and now in conversational programs, is apparently now interested in expanding his scope to sex robots. I need to meet this man.\n\nHaving sex with robots is, from a public health perspective, a very low-risk activity. Yes, robots can get viruses, but these aren’t transferable and only cause health risks to humans when it leads their robot companions to take over the world.\n\nPlus, these robots are charming. Take a look at this excerpt from a conversation between a human and a program that Levy designed:\n\nJudge-3: What do you do when you’re not doing the Loebner prize?\nDo-Much-More: Oh, I do much more than I intended to do at first. I got more interested in the job as I went along.\nJudge-3: Is that difficult?\nDo-Much-More: No, it isn’t at all difficult. It is as peaceful as a platypus playing with a potato pudding.\n\nIf this judge knew Wendy, they would’ve surely voted that Do-Much-More was human. That kind of alliteration is exactly what I’d like to hear in bed.\n\nWhen Levy isn’t busy programing robots to have human-like conversations or theorizing about the future of the sex industry, he apparently keeps himself busy writing books – most of which are analyses of chess games, but some seem a bit more accessible to the general (sexy) public, like Love and Sex with Robots. This was the commercial product of PhD research at the University of Maastricht. Anything is possible in the Netherlands. I can’t find any references to where Levy is living now, but if I run into him on the street when I’m in Maastricht at the end of the month, I will definitely try to procure an interview. Because who doesn’t want to have a chat with a man who is one of the leading experts in the world on sex robots?? He observes:\n\n“The state of the art is only a little further advanced than the Real Dolls of this world. There’s a Japanese company that has a product called HoneyDoll, which has some electronic sensors. If the man strokes the nipples in the right way, the doll can make orgasmic sounds … There’s also an engineer in Germany, Michael Harriman, who has developed a doll that has heating elements so most of the body is warm, apart from the feet.”\n\n(And thanks to Jim for both finding the article and coming up with the cheap double-entendre.)"

"Whatever Big Content did to preserve the music industry since the rise of the internet it killed off new music.\n\nAccording to MRC Data, a music-analytics firm old songs now represent 70 percent of the US music market,\n\nThe new-music market is actually shrinking and the growth in the market is coming from old songs. The 200 most popular new tracks now regularly account for less than five per cent of total streams. That rate was twice as high just three years ago.\n\nProof that it is not just old farts like me that only listen to stuff made before 2000 can be seen in the fact that viewership for the music industry's Grammy awards plummeted 53 per cent this year to just 8.8 million.\n\nThe fact is that kids of today are not interested in music, and have nothing really that can be expressed musically. More people pay attention to streams of video games on Twitch (which now gets 30 million daily visitors.\n\nIf a group does get together to make music they have to jump over all sorts of obstacles ranging from copyright lawsuits to bored fans sharing pictures of cats instead.\n\nIn the future it will be worse with dead musicians are now coming back to life in virtual form — via holograms and 'deepfake' music — making it all the harder for young, living artists to compete in the marketplace.\"\n\nThe problem is that that it has all been done before, and no one has anything new to say. Meanwhile the music industry does not want to take risks on radical new styles of music while people still want to listen to the old stuff.\n\nMaking matters worse are music algorithms which are now curating new music which are designed to be feedback loops, ensuring that the promoted new songs are virtually identical to your favorite old songs. Anything that is too different is ruled out by the algorithm.\n\nLast modified on 08 February 2022\nRate this item\n(1 Vote)\nTagged under\nMore in this category: « Facebook threatens to pull out of EU Linus Torvalds did not create Bitcoin »\nback to top"

"What if religions sought to understand encounters with sacred art? What if abstract religious art is more engaging than pictorial representations? What if sacred art is more effective in secular contexts?",
null,
"Asked to recall a deeply moving spiritual experience, many people will describe it sensuously. They’ll cite things such as the light, the sounds or the absolute silence, the colors, textures and images that provoked contemplation, the intense emotions and feelings that swelled in response. Within the storehouse of our brains, the stimuli of art are often entangled in the effect.\n\nLittle wonder then that nearly all worship settings — past and present — include visual art, whether paintings or prints, carvings, stained glass or sculptures such as crucifixes in Christian churches or ornate reliquary in Buddhist temples that hold the remains of revered teachers.\n\nWhile visual art in places of worship sometimes appears as merely decorative, a way to add beauty – or, at the very least, visual interest — to interior spaces. It is often much more. By encouraging a profound response in the viewer, it can be a powerful tool for opening a doorway into a spiritual realm – prompting or deepening devotion. Visual art in worship settings also serves to reinforce important stories and teachings from religious texts and traditions. Thoughts and emotions fuse, and we grasp our humanness in a decidedly different way.\n\nOf course, religious art exists in many settings other than places of worship. Museums are full of it, acquired from religions and regions throughout the world. It’s also not unusual to see religious art in galleries, parks, campuses, homes and even some businesses.\n\nHow might the type of art and where it’s placed affect how people experience it?\n– Robin Jensen, Ph.D., professor of theology at the University of Notre Dame\n\nFor Robin Jensen, Ph.D., professor of theology at the University of Notre Dame and an authority on early Christian art and archaeology, encountering sacred art in secular places has provoked some intriguing questions. How might the type of art and where it’s placed affect how people experience it? Are certain types of religious art more conducive to spiritual experiences than others? Is it the art itself that produces the impact, or are our responses dependent on where and when we experience it?\n\nWith funding from the Templeton Religion Trust, Jensen hopes to uncover answers to these and related questions as she leads an interdisciplinary pilot research project, “Understanding the Enduring Impact of Encounters with Sacred Art.”\n\n“I’ve always been interested in the intersection of spirituality, the arts and people’s religious experiences through the context in which they worship,” Jensen explains. “This project was sparked by looking at sacred art in secular places and wondering how people engage with it outside of a worship setting. Does it matter where the art is or what it shows? What does it mean to have a crucifix in an art museum? Or spiritual art in a casino?”\n\nUniting senior scholars in psychology, theology and art history, the project is “carving and crafting a new way,” says Jensen. A purposefully interdisciplinary undertaking, it’s combining areas of expertise to study how changes in place and time affect how individuals encounter religious art – both visually and spiritually.\n\nThe goal was to create a study that’s scientific and at the same time humanistic.\n– Robin Jensen, Ph.D., professor of theology at the University of Notre Dame\n\nWorking closely on the measurement elements of the work are David Radvansky, Ph.D., professor of psychology and James Brockmole, Ph.D., professor of psychology, both with the University of Notre Dame. Brockmole, by tracking the subject’s eye movements is gathering data to measure how the subjects take in information about artwork at the initial encounter. Radvansky’s work is very focused on the memory element. By asking a series of questions at the initial encounter, then again at later date, the team can gain insight to how the subjects create, organize, store and retrieve the memory the encounter.\n\n“Rather than just doing anecdotal or historical work, we wanted to do a pilot project that would engage scientists in some kind of empirical measurement and quantitative studies,” she says. “The goal was to create a study that’s scientific and at the same time humanistic, attentive to the research subjects, and explorative theology in the broadest sense.”\n\nA Study of Contrasts\n\nThe research effort investigates subjects’ responses to two starkly different works of art, both located on the campus of the University of Notre Dame:\n\nThe research team is measuring participants’ responses to these two artworks onsite as well as in labs, where digitally manipulated images visually depict them in various settings, including museums, racetracks, restaurants and casinos.\n\nThe research methods include eye-tracking technology and targeted questionnaires to empirically measure participants’ responses at various intervals, including during liturgical seasons in the Roman Catholic Church. By measuring what captures participants’ attention, how the artworks make them feel, and what they remember over time, the researchers are beginning to discover clues into some big as-yet largely unanswered questions:\n\n“Something we’ve already learned that’s surprised us is that people have a better memory of the nonfigurative objects in the garden than the pictorial ones in the Basilica,” notes Jensen. “They don’t have as strong an emotional reaction. And they sometimes have a negative reaction. But they have a better memory of them. So we’re trying to figure out what that might mean.”\n\nJensen’s hope is that the results of this pilot will begin to formulate a better understanding of the function of religious artwork for spiritual experiences and spiritual growth. More than just an artifact of history or evidence of an artist’s great style or skill, art, she believes, can contribute to the development of people’s spiritual lives. Through this project, she’s hoping to ground that belief in data.\n\nToward that goal, she admits to a personal agenda for choosing abstract sculpture as well as traditional, figurative paintings for this study. “I hope to be able to help people move beyond pictorial religious art to something that may be less accessible immediately,” she explains. “Could they come to appreciate the spiritual value and, in fact, enduring impact of abstract work on their ideas about the holy and the sacred? It’s not narrative art. It’s not didactic in any way. It’s actually quite a different sort of spiritual encounter.”"

"Tough-talking, hawkish Avigdor Lieberman lobbied the Danish government to act as go-between with Syria during his term as foreign minister in the previous Netanyahu government, according to Denmark’s former top diplomat.\n\nLieberman’s office denied the story on Wednesday, calling it “nonsense.”\n\nBut Per Stig Moller, the former Danish foreign minister, told Danish radio that during Lieberman’s visit to the country in his capacity as foreign minister in November 2009, he “expressed a willingness to come to a solution with Syria.”\n\n“At the beginning of his term, Lieberman [was opposed to talks with Syria], but by the end of 2009 he was willing to go for a two-state solution with the Palestinians as well as an arrangement with Syria,” Moller said. “Lieberman, like Muallem, thought that Denmark could play a role in this.”\n\nMoller says he believed that for pragmatic reasons the Syrians really wanted peace with Israel, and so informed the Israeli government.\n\n“Without peace with Israel, they couldn’t make economic agreements with the European Union and they couldn’t get rid of the harsh sanctions that were hurting them,” he said. “In such a scenario, the Syrian economy would dip, unemployment among the youth would rise, and Syria would be awash in Islamism.”\n\nMoller said that his Syrian counterpart, Walid Muallem, had conveyed his interest in restarting negotiations with Israel, at the time led by Ehud Olmert. Then Netanyahu was elected and Lieberman came into the picture.\n\n“[Muallem] told me that Syria was willing to make a deal on its own with Israel on the condition that there would be a declaration that Israel would also come to agreement with the Palestinians,” the former Danish FM said. “We talked about how we could move this process forward, and we even built a five-stage plan.”\n\nHowever, the Danish track was pre-empted by then-French president Nicolas Sarkozy, who invited Netanyahu and Assad to Paris for talks. This was too high-profile for Assad, who refused the invitation, saying that he was at that stage only ready to hold low-level talks with the Israelis."

"Going to the Royal Adelaide show has never really been something that’s been high on my to-do list and then when I had a child I knew that some day I should take him so he could see what it’s all about.\n\nHis school closes for one day during the show and for the last two years that he’s been at school I’ve put him into out of school hours care but this year they didn’t have it. This year I’d also been thinking that this would be the year I would take him as he’s that bit older and able to handle walking around for the day.\n\nAs I also hadn’t been to the show for a long time I wanted to have a good look around too, and not just be stuck in sideshow alley, or rideshow alley. I’m sure there are more rides now than there used to be. They are certainly much more expensive at around $10 per ride. We went on the Wednesday which is a cheaper day than normal for adults and I’m glad I bought our tickets online. Just a quick word about the user experience when buying these tickets though. On my printout after buying them I was told they would be posted to me. A week after I booked them I rang up to find out why they hadn’t been sent and I was told to pick them up at the show. Surely that wouldn’t have been too hard to put on the website?\n\nI’m glad I’d pre-booked our tickets though as the lines were huge and we saved ourselves a good 30 minutes. The first thing we did was the wearable blooms fashion parade which I’ve already written about.\n\nWe moved on from there to the animals section of the show and I think you could spend a whole day just doing that.\n\nI would have liked to spend more time in the dog section but it was so crowded in there that it was almost impossible to move around.",
null,
"Who knew they had pig racing at the show? I certainly didn’t. They were very cute and very well trained.",
null,
"We sat down for a snack while watching the wood cutting and bumped into some friends.",

"After some lunch we moved into the rides area where I’d promised JJ two rides of his choice. His aunt had also given him $10 for a ride so he had three in total. Luckily he’s now tall enough to go on rides by himself. He’s on the second carriage from the front and for a kid who’s naturally cautious he loves this sort of stuff. I think I created a daredevil when we went to the various worlds up at the Gold Coast.",

"I went on this ride – below – with him (the only one) and when it started going around I felt a bit sick and wondered how the heck I would manage it for the next couple of minutes but manage it I did.",

"It was onto more sedate things inside the pavilions after that and it somehow became a theme of armed forces with JJ sitting in the back of the army truck and having a go on the Air Force cadet’s flight simulator. I’m glad I wasn’t flying in a real plane with him as it would have involved lots of dives and spiral rolls.",
null,
"And he became a bike-riding paramedic for a minute.",

"The showbag pavilion was next and JJ was lucky to get the K-Zone showbag as they had nearly run out but it was really good value for money at $10. I bought the Cleo one and got a magazine fix.",
null,
"Overall I enjoyed the show and will go again. I don’t think we’ll go every year but every couple of years will be just fine with me but before I know it JJ will want to go just with his friends and stick around in that noisy ride area."

"Therefore, brothers and sisters, we have an obligation–but it is not to the sinful nature, to live according to it. For if you live according to the sinful nature, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the misdeeds of the body, you will live, for those who are led by the Spirit of God are the children of God. The Spirit you received does not make you slaves, so that you live in fear again; rather, the Spirit of Adoption that you received brought about your adoption to sonship. And by him we cry, “Abba, Father.” The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are God’s children. Now if we are children, then we are heirs–heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory. Romans 8:12-17\n\nOur text for today includes the word “adoption” at least in most English versions. Paul even refers to the Holy Spirit as the “Spirit of Adoption”. What does he mean…and what can we draw from this analogy? Many of you have experienced the adoption of a child in your own families. Our family, too, has experienced adoption. We are a “mixed” family of both adopted and biological children. So when Paul uses the word adoption, my ears perk up and I am interested in the way in which he describes our relationship with God using this word.\n\nThree of our four children have come to us through adoption. Those of you who are also adoptive parents will immediately recognize the brief conversations below:\n\nIn all of these cases the real issue revolves around how one defines a family, or prioritizes various things. Are DNA and our biological connection more important and deeper than other familial relationships, such as adoption?\n\nAs we proceeded with our international adoptions through the Japanese family court in our prefecture, we became aware of one important fact. In Japan, there are two distinct types of adoption. One is called “ordinary or common adoption” (futsuu yoshi-engumi), and the other is called “special adoption” (tokubetsu yoshi-engumi) In Japanese culture it’s not unusual for couples who can’t have children of their own to simply adopt a nephew or niece – an “extra” child of one of their relatives. It’s usually a boy and this child would come to carry on the family name and take over the family business, etc. This kind of ordinary adoption is quite simple to do – requiring merely a change on the citizenship register of all involved. It can also be quite easily undone if things don’t work out as smoothly as one wished. With a “special adoption”, it is a completely different process. In this case, the child cuts ALL ties with the original family, including any right of inheritance, and actually joins a new family, becoming a “real” child with all the rights of inheritance – an actual heir. Of course, we realized that this is the only kind of adoption that we have in our American system and so we were required to follow through with a “special” or “tokubetsu” adoption.\n\n1. Brings us INTO a new relationship with God (verse 15)\n\nA discussion of our inheritance being both suffering and glory… would be another entire sermon! But back to adoption – if we are adopted, and become REAL brothers and sisters, and share the SAME Abba / Father – we are no longer able to view brothers and sisters of other nationalities, ethnicities, political divides… as somehow OTHER – not connected to us. We are all a NEW family, a real family, a tokubetsu adoption! And if we extend that circle to include not just other Jesus-followers, but all humanity – the implications become profound. How many of our present wars and struggles would become impossible if people truly understood that with the same heavenly father, we are all siblings?\n\n(the above is a summary of the message shared on May 30, 2021 during our zoom worship session.)"

"Foam aplenty but the fit of parts is good.\n\nI guess I should admit right here at the start that I've a bit of a soft spot for GWS kits. I’ve built a good many and think they're grand, although I’m the first to admit that a few idiosyncratic traits must at times be tolerated. Nevertheless and generally speaking the designs fly very well, sometimes with a few adjustments here and there and more often than not, with a bit of weight in the nose. Although I’ve built the pre-painted FW-190 you see here, I'd recommend you buy the unpainted version which with a RRP of £24.99 is I think, a lot of model for the money.\n\nThe model is titled 190 – there's no FW prefix but I'm going to call it FW-190 as clearly this is a rendition of the famous German WWII fighter. The model is available in standard foam or EPO (Elapor to you and me) and represents one of the first generation of designs to come from GWS's new Chinese manufacturing facility. This new generation of models is bigger than the last and it's fair to say that the quality of the moulded foam parts has improved – things fit where they should, which is no bad thing.\n\nThe packaging isn't quite what it used to be though, the all-colour boxes have gone, to be replaced by white card and a picture panel. Colour is absent from manual too, but the 'Airfix' style of exploded diagrams does well to convey the basics. GWS kits are just that, 'kits' in every sense so there's building in store not least painting and finishing – they do reminding me of the Airfix kits I built as a kid now I come to think of it.\n\nThough crisply moulded, scale deviations are in evidence. The panel lines are far too deep and the wing and tail feathers too thick, GWS having clearly decided to add strength through mass rather than using say, carbon strips (a la Multiplex) to support a thinner rear fuselage section. The cowl is a little disappointing too and doesn't really do justice to the '190's characteristic gun bulges. Stand back from the model though and an FW-190 it is.",
null,
"I was pretty pleased with the results after my first skirmish with an airbrush!\n\nThe kit reflects some curious decisions by GWS, not least the inclusion of a Y-lead and the omission of a spinner. A Y-lead is something builders probably wont need – using a computer transmitter flapperon function for the two aileron servos with a 6-channel receiver. On the other hand, the FW-190's distinctive spinner will be difficult to source or tricky to reproduce from scratch. I had a bit of luck as far as the spinner was concerned and chanced upon a Parkzone FW-190 spinner in a model shop that's just about the right size albeit for a two-bladed prop. This item should be obtainable (probably on order from Horizon Hobby) at most model shops.\n\nConstruction is straightforward and shouldn’t take long, indeed like most foamies, the majority of the build time will probably be taken with painting and finishing. There's not too much to report here – I used my own hinges for the control surfaces and decided against undercarriage as they would look awful hanging down on a fast pass. The nose area seems to have a number of slots, any of which could accomodate the motor stick so be careful which of these you use as it's positively easy to end up with an off-centre motor if you're not careful.\n\n\nFor the finish I sprayed acrylic colours using an airbrush (see my airbrush feature in the April 2008 issue of RCM&E) to a scheme loosely based on a 1944 Western Front example. I found a little pilot, added some guns and a tail aerial mast too – little touches like this all add to the overall scale impression once the model is airborne.",
null,
"Thankfully GWS kits aren't supplied with a brushed motor these days, the company sensibly leaving the purchaser to add his motor of choice. Brushless it has to be so I fitted a GWS BL 2215/12 outrunner allied to a 25 amp E-flite ESC which is more than big enough for the job in hand. The motor fits to one of the company's trademark stick mounts using a GWS brushless outrunner motor mount.\n\nBattery wise, a Li-Po in the 3s 1300mAh – 1800mAh range will do nicely. The manual states that 2000mAh packs will do but I think you'll have trouble getting one of these to fit under the battery hatch, it's not an issue though as smaller packs will still provide plenty of flight time.\n\nShow me a park fly foamie that doesn't need some lead in the nose and I'll show you a model that could fly a lot better. I found that 60g of stick-on weight was required on the inside of the cowl to bring the C of G up to where it should be. GWS quote a flying weight of 20-23oz, which is a bit optimistic. My model (without a rudder servo) was was 27oz with a 6oz 1800mAh Li-Po battery.\n\nAlthough a three-blade prop would be ‘scale’ my spinner dictated a two-blader so I selected a 10×7 ‘orange’ GWS prop which pulled 10 amps at full throttle. The static prop-wash was certainly impressive and I've not seen the need to change this prop having since flown the model although I may just step up to an 11\" prop soon just too see how it compares – GWS do recommend the 10×6 for the motor though.\n\nMy receiver was a small Jeti 35MHz 4-channel unit and servos were really just those I had lying around – Ripmax SD-150's in each wing and a Hi-tec 55 for elevator. I didn't bother with a rudder servo – I rarely do if the model isn't aerobatic capable, or as in this case, would look silly prop-hanging!",
null,
"This FW-190 has a lovely stance in the air\n\nThe model flies very well and doesn't seem to have any poor handling faults. The power from my system meant that I can launch under-arm with ease and the model pulls away at a good angle without faltering or dropping a wing. The stall characteristics are very good and as long as the balance point suggested has been achieved then I can't imagine the model will suddenly drop a wing – I certainly haven't been able to coax any nastiness from her.\n\nThis FW-190 tracks smoothly and the roll rate whilst pretty sedate at the recommended setting, can be adjusted at the Tx or the model of course. She'll loop happliy enough but I get a kick just watching he on those low fast fly-bys, followed by a pull-up and half roll before coming back down again for another fast pass – great stuff!\n\nLanding the model is simplicity itself, especially so given the safe handling characteristics. The 190 will cope with a modest breeze but, like all small foamies, she'll be better on a calm day. Flight times are very good – 10-15 minutes depending on throttle useage and this with modest 1800mAh 3S Li-Po battery too.\n\nUPDATE 24/3/08 Just by way of an update I should just add that I've now settled on the 11×7 prop and have added another 20g of weight in the nose. She's now pretty much 'there' as far as this power-train is concerned although the more I fly her, the faster I want her to go so a motor upgrade may be on the cards in due course. For now though she's plenty fast enough for the small park I fly from.\n\nIt's amazing just how cheap electric flight has become. This 40\" span warbird is just £25. Throw in a cheap ESC and motor, say £15, three cheap servos at £5 each and a little Li-Po battery, say £20 – and you have a great park model and a model that will satisfy at any club flightline……for not much money.\n\nGWS haven't turned in the perfect kit here of course but for £25 builders will be happy to make their own alterations along the way, safe in the knowledge that the airframe will reward once in the air, indeed this FW-190 has a certain presence that will add to the overall satisfaction.",

It followed October's six-day hunt, which was limited to bows and arrows and muzzle-loading guns.\n\nOn Saturday, former Democratic U.S. Sen.

They doubted Pedals was able to run, climb, defend itself or even eat properly, and they feared it might not survive.\n\nAccording to state DEP data, most of the bears killed in the December and October hunts were bagged in Sussex County.",

"The reason lies in a complex interaction of important, conflicting legal principles.\n\nA criminal case recently halted because a judge ruled that there had been unreasonable delays has made national news. This was no ordinary case. The accused, Qing Huang, had been charged under the Security of Information Act for attempting to pass secrets to the Chinese government — a very rare occurrence in Canada, with only two other such cases since September 11, 2001.\n\nThe facts are straightforward. Huang worked for a company called Lloyd’s Register. Lloyd’s had been hired by Irving Shipbuilding to review plans for Canadian military vessels. On November 13, 2013, Huang had a meeting with his supervisors, in which it was clearly communicated that his job was in jeopardy. Two days later, he downloaded approximately 6,000 files from the internal company network.\n\nAs a result, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police had an undercover officer posing as a Chinese embassy official meet with Huang. The officer asked: “Are you willing to help us?” Huang replied yes and took a USB flash drive from the officer, ostensibly to gather additional documents from Lloyd’s.\n\nAlmost a decade later, the prosecution has been stopped dead. The case seems like a “slam dunk” but is an object lesson in why spy prosecutions are so difficult and so rare.\n\nThe answer lies in a complex interaction of important conflicting legal principles: the presumption of innocence, the burden of proof, the right of the accused to a defence, the right to a trial within a reasonable time and the need to keep certain aspects of national security secret.\n\nThe interplay between these principles is anything but simple.\n\nThe accused have the right to know the case against them. But, when national security is concerned, some things must be kept secret.\n\nIn this case, counsel for Huang brought an application to investigate and challenge the lawfulness of the warrant used to intercept the original phone calls. If there were any irregularities in obtaining that warrant, his legal team could then challenge the admissibility of those communications and other evidence derived from those calls.\n\nAt the same time, disclosing that information would no doubt include what the intelligence community refers to as sources and methods — or the “how” of intelligence collection and analysis. This background to the warrant application would be what the Canada Evidence Act defines as “potentially injurious information.”\n\nCases like this are why decisions around what can be disclosed and what must be kept secret take place in a separate court. The trial was to take place in Ontario’s Superior Court of Justice, while the evidentiary issues were worked out in the Federal Court and Federal Court of Appeal.\n\nIn a nutshell, this is how a seemingly clear-cut case, resting on clear evidence, dragged on for more than eight years and never got to trial.\n\nThere is certainly a lesson here about the need to fix the perennial “intelligence to evidence” problem. Essentially, that problem is this: in cases involving highly sensitive information, determining what can and cannot be safely disclosed will take time, and this almost inevitably will clash with the right to be tried in a reasonable time.\n\nGranted, fixing this problem will be hard. But it is necessary. If we cannot try a person willing to risk everything to disclose highly confidential military information to a foreign power, what’s the message to other would-be amateur spies — or worse — our adversaries?\n\nAaron Shull is the managing director and general counsel at CIGI. He is a senior legal executive and is recognized as a leading expert on complex issues at the intersection of public policy, emerging technology, cybersecurity, privacy and data protection.",

"D.L. Macdonald and Kathleen Scherf’s edition of Frankenstein has been widely acclaimed as an outstanding edition of the novel―for the general reader and the student as much as for the scholar. The editors use as their copy-text the original 1818 version, and detail in an appendix all of Shelley’s later revisions. They also include a range of contemporary documents that shed light on the historical context from which this unique masterpiece emerged.\n\nNew to this edition is a discussion of Percy Shelley’s role in contributing to the first draft of the novel. Recent scholarship has provoked considerable interest in the degree to which Percy Shelley contributed to Mary Shelley’s original text, and this edition’s updated introduction discusses this scholarship. A new appendix also includes Lord Byron’s “A Fragment” and John William Polidori’s The Vampyre, works that are engaging in their own right and that also add further insights into the literary context of Frankenstein."

"James Tracy, an associate professor at Florida Atlantic University’s School of Communication and Multimedia Studies, was served a notice of termination Wednesday by the Vice Provost for Academic Affairs at the university in Boca Raton.\n\nAs the Sun Sentinel reports, Tracy is a Sandy Hook truther who is known to produce written material that is conspiracy theorist in nature.\n\nIn early 2013, following the Sandy Hook school shooting massacre in December 2012 in which 20 first-graders and six adults were shot and killed at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Conn., Tracy began writing on his personal blog suggesting the tragedy was staged and a complete hoax. The Sandy Hook conspiracy theory is part of a wider, underground and online movement of modern conspiracy theorists who are known as “Sandy Hook truthers.”\n\nTruthers and other government conspiracy theorists generally agree that all or most national tragedies are orchestrated by the government for the purpose of inciting fear in order to gain or maintain control over large segments of the population in various ways. In recent years, the truther movement has grown drastically online and through social media in response to various mass shootings and tragic national massacres.\n\nThe Sun Sentinel reports Tracy received a reprimand from FAU in 2013, shortly after he published a post on his personal blog claiming the Sandy Hook massacre was staged. The university said he did not make it clear that his personal views in the post were not representative of the university. Tracy continued to publish conspiracy theories on the blog, including ones about other, similar national tragedies since Sandy Hook.\n\n“Tracy is among those who have personally sought to cause our family pain and anguish by publicly demonizing our attempts to keep cherished photos of our slain son from falling into the hands of conspiracy theorists,” the couple wrote in the piece.\n\nThe family says the professor sent them a certified letter demanding proof that Noah ever lived, and that they were his parents and owned rights to the photo of their deceased son, Sun Sentinel reported.\n\nAccording to the university, Tracy has 10 days to respond to the notice, in accordance with the school’s grievance process, after which a final decision could be made.\n\nYou can read the full Sun Sentinel report here and the family’s editorial published December 10 here.\n\nTracy has issued a response via a \"Sandy Hook Hoax\" page on Facebook.\n\nHere is Dr. Tracy's response to the article on Sun SentinelWe will see if they even post it Here's what I sent as a...\n\nThis story will be updated as new developments unfold."

"So for the next few weeks, I decided that on Wednesdays I will write some articles doing an introduction/background to some of the brands that I appreciate. This week, I’m going to spotlight MB&F. MB&F holds a special place in my horological heart. When I first started getting into horology, I came across the Legacy Machine no. 1 and was absolutely amazed. Even though it is without a minute repeater or tourbillon, the perfect execution with its classically inspired design and its exquisite finishing caused me to really want to dig more into haute horology.\n\nMB&F was founded in 2005 by Maximilian Büsser. Prior to 2005, Büsser was the head of Harry Winston’s Rare Time Piece division. Under his guidance, Harry Winston went from a jeweler with a line of watches to a well-known name in Haute Horology thanks to the creation of the Opus Collection (which has subsequently help bring to the collective consciousness many independent watchmakers like FP Journe, Felix Baumgartner/Urwerk, Vianny Halter and others). Not content with seeing others thrive while remaining behind the scenes, Busser left Harry Winston after seven years to follow his passion.\n\nMB&F consists of Büsser as the head and creative director of the company (the “M” and “B”) as well as people with various talents (watchmakers, designers, sales etc). His staff, as well as the people and companies that fill the supply chain roles (cases, crystals, movement parts) are considered ‘friends’ (the “F” in MB&F).\n\nThe Horological Machine line was first released in 2006 with the eponymously named “HM 1.”",
null,
"It features a large, figure-eight styled case with two individual time discs that display the hour and minutes (a theme that would be repeated throughout their collections) as well as a raised central tourbillon. Continuing on with the HM 2, MB&F started exploring depth in their movement construction, as well as increased complexity with Jump Hours, Retrograde hands and a moonphase.",
null,
"HM 3 took the line into a more Sci-Fi inspired direction with their Sidewinder and Starcruiser models. While the complications are relatively simple in nature (hour, minute, date and day/night indicator), the case and movement construction continue the trend of increasing complexity.",
null,
"The HM 4 has been one of their most talked about timepieces-not only for the aesthetics, but the incredibly unique and complex movement that was designed specifically with the aviation design in mind. This machine had a limited number of movements made which has limited the number of variations within the HM 4 line.",
null,
"The latest entry into the Horological Machine Line has is the HM 5. Drawing inspiration from the supercars of the 70’s MB&F created an interesting case that utilizes a prism to “project” the time onto a screen mimicking the instrument panels of a car dashboard.\n\nThe Legacy Machine line, as said earlier draws its inspiration from classic horology of the 18th and 19th centuries. In an interview with the HourTime show, Busser stated that he used to joke about how he would never design a watch with a round case and a white dial, and then went and released a watch with a round face and a white dial. The LM 1 has two white porcelain dials that with independent hour and minute hands that are controlled by a single, large balance wheel that is suspended over the dials (with an Eiffel tower looking bridge). It has a vertically moving power reserve indicator shaped like a sextant. The white dials and suspended balance wheels are two key design elements that tie together the Legacy Machine line.",
null,
"Moving on to the LM 2, the two dials were eschewed in favor of dual suspended balance wheels that utilize a differential gearing system to average out rate errors.",
null,
"The LM 101 is the third release in Legacy Machine line. It features a return to the dual dials (one of which is the power reserve indicator) and has a more streamlined look to it in regards to the balance bridge. The LM 101 is also the first movement to be fully developed in house by MB&F. Kari Voutilainen has been a consistent collaborator with MB&F and has been responsible for the aesthetic finishing of the LM movements.",
null,
"As can be seen by both the Horological and Legacy lines, MB&F celebrates mechanical art in whatever shape or form that may be. While their main focus may be on horology, they have branched off the two roots of their collection, and have created their Performance Art line which consists of a clock, two music “boxes,” and various limited edition collaborative timepieces. They also have created a space dedicated to mechanical art that doubles as their main store in Geneva, Switzerland called the MAD Gallery (Mechanical Art Devices).\n\nMB&F is a truly impressive brand that has not limited their imagination to the tired and stale trappings that a lot of the watch industry has shackled themselves to. They continue to push the boundaries of what a “time piece” is and how time can/should be presented all while paying homage to where horology came from.\n\n\nDifferent Ways to find out more about MB&F:\n\nMB&F A Blog to Watch Articles"

"“To those who love God, all things work together unto good” or St. Thomas More’s version, “Whatever happens that cannot be helped, love it as if nothing could happen more happily.”\n\nThose two quotations, favorites of Sister Marybride Ryan, express the confidence and inner resources with which she faced life and enjoyed it.\n\nShe was born Margaret Ryan on April 13, 1913 in Waterford, Ireland, two weeks after the death of her father. She lost her only brother in the flu epidemic of 1918. From her mother’s hard work and courage and from the strong support of her extended family, she gained an early love for community. Her call to the Grand Rapids community, however, came unexpectedly at the age of 16. The teacher in a geography class read a leaflet that had been left by recruiting Sisters Colette and Edith. “I doubt if I was listening closely because at that stage Americans did not interest me. After the interruption I returned to my reading, but I had covered only a few lines when I heard a distinct interior voice saying: ‘That is where I want you.’ It shocked me so that I sat bolt upright.” Within three days Margaret had consulted her confessor and written to the Sisters. A few months later she sailed from Cobh, in County Cork to begin a “full and fulfilling” life as a Marywood Dominican.\n\nIn 1932 she received the habit and the name of Mary Bride. (Later she combined the two into one word to encourage people to include the Mary.) To prepare for teaching she enrolled at Moose Jaw Normal School in Saskatchewan, Canada. For 15 years she taught high school at St. Henry’s in Melville, every subject including agriculture. Her first degree, from Ottawa University, was completed through correspondence, and her Master’s through summer sessions at Marquette University. After teaching three years at St. Joseph High, Muskegon, she went to Catholic University of America on a scholarship and earned her Ph.D. in English literature with a dissertation: John of Salisbury on the Arts of Language in the Trivium.\n\nSister Marybride began teaching at Aquinas College in September 1957 and was a scholarly stalwart of the English department for 30 years, sharing her love for Chaucer and other authors and encouraging student writers and future teachers. Her eloquence, even when speaking extemporaneously, her poems, articles and book reviews all demonstrated her own mastery of the art of language. She broadened her educational background by attending summer institutes at the University of Minnesota in 1962 and at St. Hilda’s College, Oxford in 1963. Her most venturesome academic undertaking was a semester as guest professor on Chapman College’s World Campus Afloat in 1970. This took her half way around the world in 102 days with stops at such places as London, Barcelona, Rome, Athens, Istanbul, Brazil, Trinidad, and Acapulco. In 1977 she taught in the Aquinas Irish program in Tully Cross. And she kept the Gaelic language alive for a group of Grand Rapids devotees.\n\nAfter retiring from Aquinas in 1987 Sister Marybride moved to Albuquerque, New Mexico where she assisted in the Ministry Resource Center, among other things registering undocumented persons, teaching English as a second language at the University of New Mexico, and mulching a garden plot to coax vegetables to grow in arid soil. In 1993 she returned to Marywood and took on another new challenge as librarian in the community library. She continued her teaching by offering seminars at Emeritus College at Aquinas.\n\nWe remember the grace with which she danced the Irish jig, the confidence and assurance of her bearing, the conviction with which she spoke, the delightful trill of her laughter, her resilience and verve. Out of a deep prayer life she gained an inner calm that enabled her to look forward to the end, an end that quietly came as morning dawned on Monday, April 12, an end she named Homing.\n\nThere is a peace that comes at close of day\nMuting of light, a coolness in the air,\nA softening of the clamor and the blare\nOf restless motion. Putting work away.\nSteps are less hurried. Eyes have time to stray\nTo notice where a flower has bloomed, and where\nA neighbor waits a friendly word to share,\nAnd how familiar rooms invite our stay.\nWill it be even so at close of life?\nShall I be glad to see light gently fade,\nAnd feel with ease surcease of noise and strife,\nGo peaceful toward the advancing shade?\nCome home, and at the Father’s table sit\nFinding the supper laid, the tapers lit?\n\nFor Sister Marybride we believe it was so, Alleluia!\n\nSister Marybride is survived by her nieces, nephews, friends and Sisters in her Dominican Community.\n\nWe commend Sister Marybride to your prayers\n\nSister Marybride boarding a canal boat in Amsterdam in 1970"

"The 17th International Children's Film Festival opened in Hyderabad today on the occasion of Childrens Day and Chacha Nehru’s Birthday. Noted film makers, actors and directors, along with movie buffs, are expected to converge for the 17th ICFF, a biennial event that will go on till November 20.",
null,
"B Venkatesam, Chief Coordinator of the event, said the number of children film entries, drawn from about 50 countries has gone up to a record number of 700, as compared to 300 in 2009. The Screening Committee has selected around 150 films for the fest, as compared to 75 in 2009. In the feature film category, a total of 40 countries are taking part with 80 feature films and 70 short films. The committee has effected certain changes in the categorisation this year. There would be 15 awards in four competitive categories. The number of entries selected under these categories are: International (15 films), India (10 films), Shorts (24 films) and Little Directors (11 films), officials said.\nAmong the films that will be screened in the Indian Competition section are Stanley Ka Dabba, I am Kalam, Chillar Party, Dekh Indian Circus (by Mangesh Hadawale which won the Audience Award at Busan, Korea recently) and Vihir. The Lotus Pond, made by filmmakers from Hyderabad, will have its world premiere. The Lost Thing, the 2011 Oscar Award Winner will also be screened at the festival.",
null,
"But the film that will open the festival on November 14 is Gattu, directed by Rajan Khosa and is produced by the Children's Film Society of India. Speaking of Gattu, an official spokesperson spoke about the film : In a town full of kites where children are obsessed with flying the paper and stick creations, there is a kite called Kali that rules the skies. No one knows who flies Kali. No one can defeat Kali. However, an illiterate street urchin takes up the challenge of besting Kali. He has neither money nor education on his side, but he has a goal firmly in sight.\nSignificantly, age-wise programming has been introduced for the first time. The age groups are 6 to 9, 10 to 12 and 13 to 16, ensuring that kids watch only what will be appropriate for, and enjoyed by, their age group. The lyrics for the signature tune of the festival have been written by Gulzar and the music is composed by Vishal Bharadwaj.",
null,
"As China sends a good number of entries for the ICFF, a separate category 'In Focus China' has been introduced this time. Under this section, six Chinese children’s films will be screened. Another section, 'Children's World', will present highly acclaimed films, which have won series of awards in festivals worldwide in the last decade. According to TRK Rao, special officer, 17th ICFF, the main festival centre would be at Shilparamam, a permanent crafts village, set up here amid serene surroundings.\nThe 17th ICFF will have representation from Africa and South America for the first time. Three new competitive sections -- Competition Shorts, Competition India and Competition Little Directors – have been introduced. 'Stanley Ka Dabba', 'I am Kalam', 'Chillar Party', 'Dekh Indian Circus' (a film by Mangesh Hadawale, which won the audience award at Busan, Korea last week) and Vihir (Umesh Kulkarni's film that went to Berlin as well) are some of the Indian entries.\nPosted by Films & TV World at 7:10 PM"

"AN EMAIL seemingly sent by accident to Independent Australia, reinforces long-held suspicions by the media and environmentalists that regulation of the CSG industry in Queensland is chronically under resourced and, worse, advances the special interest or commercial concerns of the very industry it is supposed to regulate — a practice described as “regulatory capture”. Anti-CSG campaigner Drew Hutton told IA that his book, ‘Mining the Queensland Way’, documents case after case where the interests of the mining industry have trumped those of the public.\n\nFollowing reports from a local source that gas leaks in the Condamine River near Chinchilla in southern Queensland appeared to be on the increase (with new bubbling found in nearby Wamby Creek), IA contacted the Department of Environment and Heritage Protection (EHP) to see if CSG activities were the cause.\n\nThe EHP forwarded IA’s email to the CSG Compliance Unit of the Department of Natural Resources and Mines (DNRM). (It should be noted that there is no independent statutory authority for environmental breaches such as NSW’s Environment Protection Agency.)\n\nAnd here is where things went pear-shaped for the author of the email — DNRM’s Media Manager, Paul Lynch. Instead of simply ‘replying’, it appears he mistakenly pressed the ‘reply all’ button and so the following email turned up in the in-tray of IA journalist, Lachlan Barker, revealing a culture which should be of concern to all Queenslanders:",

"Greens spokesperson for CSG in Queensland, federal senator Larissa Waters’ response to the above email was:\n\n‘The methane bubbling from the Condamine river is a stark reminder of the damage that coal seam gas industry is doing.'\n\nSenator Waters was scathing about the lack of action on this leak, which has been going on for three years.\n\n‘Neither the coal seam gas industry, nor the Labor and Liberal Governments have taken responsibility for this uncontrolled leak. Without understanding or admitting the cause of these gas leaks, how can the Government and CSG industry possibly avoid more leaks happing in future? The admission that the Government may never determine the cause of these leaks confirms what we’ve suspected for years: fracking is an out-of-control experiment on our groundwater and environment.\n\nThis ‘go-slow’ exposes the Government’s approach of covering-up and ignoring crucial problems in the CSG industry, while they allow unfettered expansion coal seam gas across the state. This Government department appears to have a culture of trivialising environmental concerns.’\n\nSenator Waters recently introduced a bill into the Senate calling for a ban on fracking.\n\nIsn't it time to end the culture of the \"revolving door\"?\n\nThe revolving door culture of self-interest between the mining industry and governments of all stripes, especially in NSW and Queensland, has seen a steady lineup of politicians in key policy positions take up lucrative job offers in return for “Mickey Mouse” protocols on CSG. An investigation by Sandi Keane into this corrupt practice in NSW was reported in IA in February 2013.\n\nBut the mining industry’s insidious practice of securing favoured policy outcomes via plumb job bribes to politicians has now moved on to a new phase — targeting top bureaucrats with regulatory oversight of the industry. Whistleblower Simone Marsh has gobsmacked even the most cynical with her list of over thirty examples of bureaucrats who have jumped ship after being offered a lucrative job with or on behalf of the mining industry. See the transcript of the special ABC Four Corners interview.\n\nMarsh was a former analyst with the Queensland Co-ordinator General, whose role included authoring a report on the environmental effects of the proposed LNG industry. Following the filing of the report in June 2010, she walked out of her job and was not heard of again in the media until she testified at the Queensland government parliamentary inquiry into Queensland government administration of Commonwealth government affairs in November last year. See Simone Marsh's submission here (#39).\n\nMarsh’s list – as supplied to Independent Australia by Simone and documented by Michael West in his Sydney Morning Herald investigation on 28 March 2015 – includes James Purtill, former Director-General of the Queensland Environmental Protection Agency who, with an eye to the main chance, took up a post with Santos GLNG (during the approval phase).\n\nIt also includes bureaucratic bigwigs who had controls of the industry oversight levers like Geoff Dickie, Shane McDowall and Phil Dash, who moved out of the Coordinator-General's department directly into industry. Dickie was appointed head of the Queensland Exploration Council and works for the Flinders Group. Shane McDowall was the Deputy Coordinator-General at the time. According to information provided to IA by Simone Marsh, within two weeks of signing off the QGC project, McDowall became Managing Director of John Cotter's land access and approvals consultancy, Flinders Group. QGC was a major client of Flinders Group. Phil Dash also joined the Flinders Group.\n\nStirling Hinchliffe MP, who was the Minister responsible for the Coordinator-General's office at the time of the 2010 approvals, opened Flinders Group's new expanded office in 2011. Was his \"11th hour\" Ministerial decision in 2012 re land access due to a call/email from the Flinders Group (on behalf of QGC). See story here.\n\nHinchliffe was part of the LNG cabinet sub-committee, referred to as the 'LNG committee' in Ian Fletcher's email to the Queensland Treasurer (12 May 2010). Fletcher was Director-General, Department of Employment, Economic Development and Innovation. His email was key evidence of a crime. It can be found in Appendix C of Simon Marsh's submission. The email provides evidence that the 'LNG Committee\" may have acted as a 'Court of Star Chamber' (Ian Fletcher's own words) and facilitated 'constitutional innovation' in the approval of CSG-LNG projects in Queensland.\n\nIt is likely that Stirling Hinchliffe, John Cotter and Shane McDowall had all known each other for years, from their property and major infrastructure project backgrounds. See here and here.\n\nAnother is Alan Feely, head of National Parks and Wildlife Service who went to Santos.\n\nOn the subject of Santos, it will be interesting to see how the Queensland police deal with anti-CSG protesters after accepting sponsorship from the mining giant which blatantly features the Santos logo on police cars.",

"A seed was found\n\nIn August 2011, IT World Canada (the leading Canadian online resource for IT professionals working in medium to large enterprises) and Ingram Micro (the world's largest distributor of computer and technology products), launched their first awards luncheon for Women in IT. During the lunch, a panel of women presented the challenges the IT industry faced in appealing to women, retaining them and most importantly attracting more women leaders. They were involved in mentoring, but helping one by one was slow and couldn’t keep up with the demand. The pipeline was drying up as girls weren’t taking advanced (beyond basic primary school) math. In addition, the industry was not well known – CIO’s children had no idea what their parent did. Women leaving IT continued to increase and women taking the required computer/business courses continued to decrease, and all was exacerbated by the technological disruption starting to pick up speed.\n\nThe seed is sown\n\nHaving a marketing/advertising company, experience in publishing, and having taught Math to Senior Public/Junior High School students, the light went on. I had a proactive solution. Girls across Canada needed to learn about IT, what was required to enter a career in IT – advanced math – and actually see the amazing women leaders found in IT. To interest more girls in careers in IT, by educating them and their influencers – the teachers, guidance counsellors, Principals and their parents – the answer was Future Leaders in IT' (an interactive, multimedia PDF e-magazine).",
null,
"The e-magazine had to be targeted at girls 12 – 15 years old – the Tipping Point in most girl’s lives. Major course decisions determining their future career opportunities, must be made in grades 7 or 8 and started in grade 8 or 9, such as advanced mathematics, the next levels beyond basic primary school math, and which is required for STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) disciplines and many professions.\n\nAt the time, the plan was for a Canadian e-magazine for girls to see before, during and after their tipping point. It was necessary to provide the students and the educators with the relevant resources to support the students’ insight into future careers and enhance their ability to be future leaders.\n\nThe seed was sprouting\n\nIn June 2013 before sending out a mass email to teachers across Canada with a link to the e-magazine, the guidance counsellor who had assisted, was asked to critique the final product, “Future Leaders in IT”.\n\nThe emails went out. The teachers’ response was overwhelmingly positive for this pilot project. They asked about further plans, such as leadership resources and education about other non-traditional and unknown career choices.\n\nIt was obvious that another e-magazine was not enough and without help would take far too long to create another, and the teachers wanted much more! IT wasn’t the only industry that wanted to attract more women into leadership roles and into non-traditional careers. Further research illustrated that many industries needed help attracting girls. Canada’s government Ministry, The Status of Women, was focused on it. Many non-traditional industries were conducting their own research and creating programmes to interest women in their businesses, but the success rate was not good. They needed help and early, but they were discouraged from reaching out to educators.\n\nThe answer was clear. We needed: more interactive, multi-media e-magazines for the girls; an official digital resource for the educators; and business community involvement to provide many of the resources. We needed to bring business and education together to help the girls. Relationships needed to be built. Schools prepare the girls for the rest of their lives, but with new careers, unknown careers and ever-changing careers, trying to keep abreast of all the opportunities available to the girls today is a staggering challenge.\n\nA name was chosen FLiAP (Future Leaders in All Professions) with the tagline “Empowering the next generation”, the Logo and branding were created, a pilot website built, marketing material designed and a charity trustee found. The trustee would allow us: to apply for funding from foundations and governments; to continue creating and growing; and to apply for charitable status. It is a long journey, but the girls and the educators couldn’t wait – neither could the Canadian economy. A lot of door-knocking started. As opposed to knocking on every school door, Educational Ministries, organization, Superintendents… were approached. And the response was amazing.",

"The sapling was now growing and new branches were spreading out\n\nThis was now a full-time passion. The challenge was that it was taking a lot of time and was not being financed. It was also an expensive proposition to present to potential donors given its scope – regardless that the vision was strongly supported. The more the concept grew, the greater the cost and the more difficult to find funding. The applicable funds assigned by foundations and grants were few, small, and already apportioned to well-established charities. And they were not interested in such a large endeavour. This was too big.\n\nIn speaking about the project with some American colleagues, they suggested that I expand the idea to the US, as, their educators all needed the same resources and more help than the Canadian educators. And it should be easy, as it was already an online resource, it was in English, and the cost of including the US would be negligible – an e-magazine costs the same whether created for Canada or the US or for both. The growth and expansion of topics and resources would add cost regardless of the size of the audience or the targeted location. However, the available funding opportunities would increase. The more that was researched, the clearer it became that it should go Global. The challenges for the educators and for the girls, in many ways were the same, and with access to the digital resources, the opportunities for all would broaden. This was the way to make real change.\n\nThe more that was researched, the greater the vision. It exploded. Most importantly it starts at the beginning of the girls’ education and with informed educators who have themselves become aware of their own ‘unconscious biases’ and now have the resources to learn to overcome them, to empower the girls, to build their leadership characteristics, and to change the status quo of the next generation of women.",
null,
"It takes a teams, partners, donors… and a growing and expanding vision to make change. With help, FLiAP can become the anchor for changing the status quo of the next generation of women.\n\nWe started introducing FLiAP to the business community with Posts on LinkedIn. Since not everyone is on LinkedIn, we are including the Posts here.\n\nWe welcome your input."

"Take a Trip Down Memory Lane: the study of nostalgia\n\nPosted by Susan Lubejko on May 7, 2021 in Emotions, Memory, Mood, Neuroscience | Leave a comment\n\nLiving through a global pandemic with limited access to friends, family, and fun has undoubtedly left many of us feeling emotional. Perhaps you’ve been listening to music during your many hours at home and a song has come on that forces you to reminisce on a particular trip you took with your best friend in college. Maybe you revisited an old hobby like baking bread that takes you back to simpler times as a child helping your mom in the kitchen. In these moments, you are experiencing nostalgia, characterized by an often bittersweet yearning to return to a previous time and place. What are the characteristics of this surprisingly understudied psychological phenomenon? What role may this type of thought play in our wellbeing?\n\nWhile current definitions of nostalgia include descriptors like “sentimental,” the experience of nostalgia has a surprisingly negative past. The word itself comes from Greek roots meaning “return” and “pain,” evoking the suffering one would feel by yearning for times past. The term also has long been entwined with the idea of homesickness, and throughout history, nostalgia was seen as a psychiatric disorder due to the incidences of anxiety and depression associated with acute homesickness [1]. Other sociological stances see nostalgia as a severe barrier to progress, as many believe we benefit only from moving forward, not reflecting on the past [2].\n\nIt wasn’t until later in the 20th century that nostalgia was redefined as distinct from homesickness and as having a variety of positive connotations. Spearheading the most recent effort to redeem nostalgia is a collaborative group of researchers from the United States, United Kingdom, and China that has made considerable strides in defining nostalgia by its content and triggers, as well as determining how nostalgia can actually promote physical and mental health.\n\nFirst, what kind of thoughts and feelings characterize nostalgic rumination? By studying autobiographical narratives from magazines or directly asking participants to provide written narratives of nostalgia, the researchers found that nostalgic thoughts mainly center around people, major events, and settings. In a large majority of cases, the person wrote themselves into a “major role,” indicating that a sense of self is an important facet of nostalgia. However, nostalgic thoughts also appear to have an important social component, as only 5% of narratives included the writer as the sole actor [3].\n\nPerhaps surprisingly to anyone contemplating nostalgia before the late 20th century, nostalgic feelings were actually quite positive, if bittersweet. While the researchers couldn’t be exactly sure of each author’s feelings while writing about their nostalgia, they found that the narratives had more expression of positive than negative sentiment. Interestingly, the researchers also found that about 70% of the narratives followed a “redemption sequence,” meaning that a rocky start to the memory gave rise to a positive ending (e.g. reflection on a close family member’s funeral ends with happy memories of the family pulling close together to celebrate a life) [3].\n\nFurthermore, the researchers asked participants questions to help understand what is most likely to trigger their nostalgic feelings. Although it appears counterintuitive, participants actually experience more nostalgia when they are in a negative mood. The researchers even performed a second experiment where they induced negative emotions in participants by having them read unpleasant news stories (compared to neutral or positive news stories read by other participants) and found that those in a negative mood rated more highly on measures of nostalgia [3]. Other common triggers for nostalgia are more predictable based on experience and include things like social interaction (waxing nostalgic with a group of friends) or a sensory input (like hearing that song or the smell of your bread baking).\n\nThe unexpected result that nostalgia is most common when a person is in a bad mood begs the question of whether nostalgia isn’t simply a passive emotion, but actually functions to prop up our mood and counteract harmful forces on our psychological health. After studying the content and triggers for nostalgia, the same research group speculated on possible functions of expressing this emotion. To test this, the researchers asked study participants to get into a nostalgic mood by reflecting on a past event that they specifically felt sentimental about. The control participants simply reflected on an ordinary event that had happened to them that week. Using a battery of clinical surveys, the researchers found that nostalgic participants scored better on measures of social bonding, self-regard, and general positive mood [3].\n\nNostalgia also appears able to bolster our mental health in times of loneliness. Both by assessing existing loneliness in children as well as manipulating levels of loneliness in university students using carefully worded questionnaires, a group of researchers in China found that 1) loneliness results in a loss of perceived social support, 2) loneliness increases incidences of nostalgia, as expected from the results above connecting increased nostalgia to negative feelings, and 3) nostalgia leads to increased perception of social support. Given these findings, it appears that while loneliness causes a decreased feeling of support from others, loneliness may also recruit nostalgia to counteract those feelings [4].\n\nCan nostalgia affect our physical wellbeing?\n\nThe fact that feelings of nostalgia can positively affect our perceptions of wellbeing make it a potentially powerful tool to support mental health. But what about physical comfort? While the mind and the body are often seen as two separate entities, there are many examples of our psychology having a direct effect on our physical experiences. For example, placebo drugs often provide pain relief to patients simply by expectation of relief despite the “drug” containing no active compounds. The same group of nostalgia-minded researchers were particularly interested in the idea that nostalgia is often described as “warm” and “glowing.” Could nostalgia actually change a person’s perception of temperature?\n\nTo answer this question, the researchers looked at temperature and nostalgic thoughts in a few different ways. First, they placed participants in cold, regular room temperature, and warm rooms, and found that participants in the cold room were more likely to feel emotions resembling nostalgia. This seems counterintuitive, like the idea that nostalgia comes on strongest when in a negative headspace, but suggests that maybe the participants recruited nostalgia most in the cold room in order to feel warmer. Second, the scientists induced differing levels of nostalgia in different participants and later asked them to estimate the temperature of the room they were in. The participants experiencing more nostalgia estimated the room to be a few degrees warmer than their non-nostalgic counterparts. Finally, the scientists induced nostalgia in a group of participants, then had them place their hands in an ice bath for as long as possible. Compared to those that weren’t feeling reminiscent, nostalgic patients were able to withstand the cold water for a longer amount of time [5].\n\nThe future of nostalgia research\n\nWhile a lot of progress and rebranding of nostalgia has occurred over the past few decades, there is much to be discovered about the phenomenon. Nostalgia is still studied by only a select few scientists, and the studies mostly rely on prompted patient reports of their psychological and physical state, which may not catch all of the nuances of the topic. In fact, a more recent study followed diary entries of participants that were not prompted to feel nostalgic and simply found the instances in which they were clearly thinking of events past. The analysis of their thoughts and emotional states suggested that nostalgia has more negative undertones than expected, meaning that nostalgia may be a more positive experience only when a participant is prompted in the right language to feel that way and that the positive psychological outcomes might also rely on this strong positive prompting [6].\n\nNotably, very little is known about the connections between nostalgia and the brain itself as the driver of the behavioral and physical changes. A single study exists to show that nostalgia may affect some of the dynamics of broad electrical signaling in the brain, but the researchers were unable to meet their original goal of determining whether nostalgia could alter electrical signatures related to loneliness to provide further backing for some of the psychosocial research discussed above [7]. The authors studying changes in physical perception of temperature during nostalgia note that our most current research of the anterior insular cortex position that as a possible brain area where nostalgia could be working its magic, as this part of the brain processes everything from emotion and awareness to interoception (our perception of what is going on inside our own bodies) [5,8].\n\nWhile there is still a lot to be learned about how nostalgia actually functions in the brain under a variety of circumstances, these preliminary efforts motivate future efforts to understand this common phenomenon. In the meantime, next time you find yourself reflecting on the past, take a moment to ask yourself, how does nostalgia make you feel?\n\n← How Metal can regain its Sound: the Science of Cochlear Implants WHAT DO SCIENTISTS DO APART FROM SCIENCE? →"

"Nowadays, it is not that hard to find a role model or an inspiration for women. Because there are women who are leading the teams globally and are setting a precedent. Today, we are talking about a woman leader who started disrupting tech a long time back.\n\nMeet Jayshree Ullal, CEO & President at Arista Networks, an American computer networking company. She is responsible for its business and thought leadership in cloud networking. The super talented businesswoman led the company to a historic and successful IPO in June 2014 from zero to a multibillion-dollar business.\n\nJayshree was born in London and moved to Delhi, India after spending five years of her life there. She grew up in a middle-class family.\n\nJayshree started her career in the 1980s with AMD and then moved to Fairchild Semiconductor and then to Ungermann Bass. During that time, she got more interested in marketing. After Crescendo communications, she worked at Cisco for over 15 years.\n\nThen in 2008, she joined Arista and has helped transform it into a world leader in networking technology. Jayshree joined the board of directors of Snowflake in 2020.\n\nAmong several inspirational thoughts from our global leadership, here is one that will motivate you to come out of the dilemma -\n\n“In Silicon Valley, it’s very difficult for entrepreneurs to cross the chasm and become executives because people think of it as either/or—either you can build technology or you can become a corporate executive. Probably the greatest lesson I’ve learned is that you can remain an entrepreneur at heart and grow that entrepreneurial journey into a corporate executive role. Lead from the front, be an expert in your field, and use your strengths in technology and engineering to create that next billion.\"\n\nemployHER congratulates you over your latest accomplishment of being recognized in the Forbes list of America’s Richest Self-Made Women 2021. You make us believe in hard work and passion.\n\nA post shared by Youth Chamber Of Commerce (@youthchamberofcommerce)",

"Summary from GoodReads: In the year 2098 America isn't so different from the USA of today. But, in a post-9/11 security-obssessed world, \"secured\" doesn't just refer to borders between countries, it also refer to borders between states. Teenagers still think they know everything, but there is no cure for cancer, as Kelsa knows first-hand from watching her father die.\n\nThe night Kelsa buries her father, a boy appears. He claims magic is responsible for the health of Earth, but human damage disrupts its flow. The planet is dying.\n\nKelsa has the power to reverse the damage, but first she must accept that magic exists and see beyond her own pain in order to heal the planet.\n\nKelsa Phillips has just lost her father to cancer when she meets Raven, the boy who seems to suddenly appear out of nowhere and tells her that magic exists--and more importantly, he needs her to help him heal the ley lines which have been severely weakened by humanity. To say the very least, she's skeptical but finally agrees to help him heal at least one ley line. From there, their journey takes them through Utah, Montana, up into Canada, and finally over to Alaska. It really does feel like you're taken along on their road trip as Kelsa tries to aid in stopping the tree plague--which started in a small patch of the Amazon and has just recently been spotted beginning in Mexico as well.\n\nIf you're looking for a romance, this isn't it. More or less, this is an adventure--and one which I found to be rather interesting. With that said though, my one major gripe was that it seemed almost too short. And then of course there is the fact that although Kelsa's role is over, Raven still has more work to do--literally--and with only days to spare. On the other hand, Hilari Bell's writing style really let you picture your surroundings and I loved the incantations that Kelsa came up with. As a story, it certainly had potential, I only wish that the ending had been more fulfilling."

"“That was a grind” – that was the first reaction from a smiling John Murphy after finishing his final round at the NCAA Regionals in Louisville. But it was a very positive finish as two birdies on 16 and 17, and a long par putt on 18 from Murphy proved to be crucial as his University of Louisville side qualified for the NCAA National Championships earlier this evening. Murphy finished the 54 hole tournament tied for 12th place on -2, and his finish ensured that the Cardinals finished in the top five and now go though to the final stage of the college season. Overnight the Cardinals were in fifth place, with a six shot cushion over their nearest challenger. At the turn though it was a different story with the Louisville holding the last qualifying spot by just one shot. Murphy was level par for his first nine but dropped three shots in the next five holes. At that stage it was getting tight, but the third year student was two under for his final four holes which helped the Cardinals go through to the nationals for just the fourth time in their history. In the end they took fourth place as other teams dropped shots on the closing holes.\n\nThe Cardinals were playing on their home END_OF_DOCUMENT_TOKEN_TO_BE_REPLACED"

"Evolution continues to consolidate its footprint in the iGaming sector by announcing that it is now looking to acquire Nolimit City for an initial sum of €200 million ($210 million). The potential sale could yield a bigger price provided that preliminary targets are met, leading to additional earnouts to the tune of €140 million ($147 million). The total sum of the deal could therefore reach €340 million ($357 million).\n\nEvolution’s merger and acquisition push has been particularly pronounced in recent years. The company moved in to acquire NetEnt, and another studio owned by the gaming giant at the time, Red Tiger. It then followed up on that with the acquisition of Big Time Gaming, establishing itself in the slot games iGaming vertical with utter surity.\n\nEvolution, which is the preeminent distributor and developer of live casino games, has been actively pushing to acquire competitors in the live gaming sector with the acquisitions of Ezugi and DigiWheel.\n\nEvolution chair Jens von Bahr welcomed the deal as a good opportunity for the company to continue innovating and extending its portfolio of cutting-edge games by bringing leading brands into the fold. Praising the efforts at Nolimit City and their team, von Bahr said:\n\n“We have followed Jonas, Emil and their team for a few years and been impressed as they have established a completely new style of slot games. I am proud that yet another of the very best minds in our industry has chosen to join the Evolution network.”\n\nNolimit City co-founder Jonas Tegman offered a reciprocal statement in which he praised the forming relationship between Nolimit City and Evolution. Tegman spoke about people, product, and technology synergies that will enable both entities to get “the job done.”\n\nBuilding the Future of Slot Gaming Together\n\nAccording to Tegman, the slot vertical is now experiencing a seismic change, and taking o this by Evolution’s side will help Nolimit navigate towards the best online slot offerings on the market.\n\nEvolution has been actively expanding across the board. The company boasted very good results with a 50% profit growth in the first financial quarter of 2022.

"Master the Dessert Buffet with King of Pastry Philippe Rigollot\n\nFans of the documentary Kings of Pastry are likely well-acquainted with Philippe Rigollot, who heroically was named Meilleur Ouvrier de France despite the demise of his sugar showpiece during the final moments of the competition. Yet what fans may not know is that Philippe’s wife and business partner, Elodie, a chocolatier by background, is an integral part of his work at the couple’s local pastry shop in Annecy, France.\n\nThe pair first worked together at Maison Pic, the only three-Michelin-star restaurant in France that is owned by a woman. In anticipation of Philippe’s upcoming hands-on advanced pastry course at ICE, Dessert Buffet, we reached out to Elodie to learn more about the couple’s work.\n\nYou trained in France — what was your or Philippe’s training like?\n\nPhilippe trained in the traditional fashion — a pre-apprenticeship at the age of 15, followed by two years of apprenticeship and a Brevet de Maîtrise or “Master’s Certificate” which took an additional two years. In fact, Philippe won a regional medal for being the youngest apprentice to earn his certificate.\n\nWhen did you decide you were interested in competitions, in particular the M.O.F.?\n\nHaving grown up around Paris, Philippe frequently passed by the windows of Lenôtre, where he dreamed of working one day. After earning his master’s certificate, he was successfully hired at Lenôtre, which also housed a school of professional development for pastry professionals, in which the majority of classes were taught by MOFs. It was through his introductions to the MOF that Philippe first started thinking about competitions, and in particular, his goal to become an MOF himself.",

"What advice would you have for students or working pastry chefs who want to compete?\n\nTo be a patissier is a profession based on passion, but also a profession that demands skill and precision. There is a proverb in France that says, “It’s through metal-working that one becomes a blacksmith.” To progress, you have to master the basics, train, familiarize yourself with your materials — in short, work as if every day is a day in the MOF competition.\n\nHow do you go about creating new flavors and recipes?\n\nYou have to be curious, enter into discussions with others, read…and gradually the ideas come to you. I experiment, I taste and I share those experiments with my spouse, my “right-hand man”.\n\nWhat have been the biggest lessons you have learned opening your own business?\n\nThe most important lesson as a business owner has been that, no matter the level of skill of the person making an individual cake, it is important to ensure that throughout the year, all the cakes are created with the same level of precision and consistency. As for plated desserts, which are more unstructured, that is a different matter from the pre-made desserts sold in the boutique."

"On June 4th, 1942, 75 years ago yesterday, the American and Japanese navies met west of Midway Island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. By the end of the day, the whole Pacific war had been transformed. The Battle of Midway was, thus, one of the most decisive battles in world history and the U.S. Navy’s greatest victory.\n\nThe United States and its allies had been on the defensive ever since the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor the previous December, which crippled the American fleet.\n\nProvidentially, however, the American aircraft carriers had been at sea and so had escaped harm. As the attack on Pearl Harbor had shown decisively, it was the aircraft carrier that now ruled the sea, not the battleship.\n\nThe Japanese had run riot for six months, seizing the Philippines, Hong Kong, Guam, and the Dutch East Indies. But in April, the Doolittle Raid struck back. B-25 bombers, launched off the USS Hornet, bombed Tokyo and other Japanese cities. The damage was minimal, but it came as a profound shock to the Japanese high command. They decided to lure the American carriers into a decisive battle by attacking Midway Island at the far northwestern end of the Hawaiian Island chain.\n\nThe Japanese also thought that the U.S. Navy had only two carriers. They thought they sunk the Lexington at the Battle of the Coral Sea in early May, which they had, and the Yorktown, which they had not. The Yorktown made it back to Pearl Harbor and, in an astonishing feat, was made ready for battle in only 48 hours.\n\nLying in wait for the Japanese northeast of Midway, as soon as the Japanese were spotted, the three American carriers launched attacks. At first, it did not go well as the obsolescent American torpedo planes were shot out of the sky. But at a critical moment, when the Japanese air cover was out of position, and their carrier decks were littered with planes, ordnance, and fuel lines, American dive bombers struck three of the carriers, reducing them to flaming wrecks. The fourth Japanese carrier was sunk later that day.\n\nThe Yorktown was later hit, but not fatally, until the next day it was hit by a torpedo from a Japanese submarine and sank.\n\nThe Japanese Imperial Navy’s superiority in aircraft carriers was erased in a day, and Japan could not hope to match the United States in new construction. Indeed, between 1942 and 1945, Japan completed 550,000 tons of naval construction; the U.S. just 3,200,000 tons.\n\nIt would take another three years of hard, bloody fighting. But after Midway, the Pacific War was quintessentially a naval war. One that Japan was doomed to lose.",

The only indicator that I have traveled 700 kilometers is the change of scenery in the mornings that I see from the window. The landscape just looks different. The strong presence of nature is really evident here and a southern girl has to every once in a while stop and take snapshots of the surrounding imagery. I have also noticed that the way of dressing here is based, first and foremost, on practicality – one can go hiking on a Sunday morning and then attend a restaurant brunch in the same outfit without sticking out. This has rubbed on me and I have lately been on a look out for wool sweaters and good quality outwear that looks smart as well.\n\nThe thing with the pink started maybe a month ago, when my friend, Marja, was wearing these extravagant feather earrings when we met. I admired them on her, knowing they would not suit me at all. After that I fell in love with this woodcut by Tuukka Peltonen, called the Morning (1999), presented at Korundi, somehow I got stuck with the pink. I bought three pink pencils that I started using in the drawing class (you can also see them being used in the illustrations here in my posts) and almost anything pink caught my eye. One morning this week, when I was dressing up, I noticed my pink running thights that I had not yet used: and I put them on. To my photography class. I think several local people took a glance or two when I passed them by at eight in the morning in my neon pink pants, which made me think why is it so normative to put pink pants on a girl around the age of 0-10 but after that it is something so very out of the ordinary (apparently), not to even mention males wearing pink pants. And it was so interesting to encounter different reactions to the pants starting from a man openly gaping at them and me in the traffic lights, to a woman from my class who looked at me when I entered the photography class and smiled wide: ”really outstanding pants.”. Have you ever given a thought to the fact that we perceive us to be free and without restriction but anything out of the normative is easily suppressed by the majority with their disapproval – and these were only pink pants, think of all the other stuff.\n\nI like to play with roles and identities, so for me make-up and dressing is a game that offers me innumerous options to try on a daily basis. I like to wear showy eye make-up and I love a good eyeliner. Unfortunately, I have made a couple of mistakes with two recent purchases and now I would like to share them with you: the L’Oréal Superliner Blackbuster and Rimmel Scandaleyes Thick & Thin Eyeliner. I had hesitations when purchasing them but I played a bit with the testers and all seemed okay – but boy, was I mistaken. Almost immediately after I started using them both, I noticed that you cannot really do the eyeline in a normal position beacuse the tip of the pen dries when kept in a horizontal position, which forces the user to shake the pen and put it in a diagonal position, so the liquid would reach the tip. And I think it is pointless to say that stopping in the middle of your eye lining process does not equal in an outcome most desired: something that is infuriating to me. So now I have returned to my beloved dip-in-eyeliner and I am happy again – although I feel like returning these two pens to their respected manufacturers and asking for a refund.\n\nOh, to share you the most wonderful herbal tea that has become my morning and evening indulgence: the Yogi ’s Stomach Ease that has Fennel Seeds and Licorice, Cardamom, Coriander and Ginger: the aroma and the flavors are beyond words. I bought mine from Ruohonjuuri and I have seen them in Punnitse and Säästä as well. As a well-known friend of ginger, I have found a product by The Ginder People that is just made for me: Hot Coffee Chewey Ginger Candy, where they have combined the consistency of fudge to a subtle flavor of coffee and dominant flavor of ginger. I did not stack my storages last time when I was in Turku and now I feel like crying for not having them. I might as well have a cup of tea.\n\nAnd this Sunday’s music gives you the proper attitude: no slouching, goodybye passivity! :A$AP Rocky – Wild For The Night"

"Like Any Great Change It Started Little by Little\n\nIt’s undeniable that the United States is a right-wing country. It has long been the land of the robber baron. Then the issue was complicated by their relentless tectonic slipping to the right. The geological analogy is apt because it occurred in an imperceptibly slow manner, like the slip fault before the earthquake. After a few brief eons the European continent drifted east, leaving North America stranded on the wrong side of the Atlantic. That’s where the US sits today, both geologically and ideologically, estranged from the civilized world.\n\nAfter more than a century of ongoing slow creep American society finds itself at the end of its tether, remotely controlled by demented billionaires and reptilian politicians wielding frightening high-tech bludgeons. There is no justice, no equality, no decency, no hope. Giant American companies have more than enough money to go around, and it’s dished out liberally to pliant politicians via lobbyists and septic think tanks. The situation became evident in the seventies with the sinister Nixon/Kissinger regime. (See Seymour Hersh’s 1983 600-page book, Kissinger, the Price of Power which elegantly documents Kissinger’s years as Nixon’s National Security Advisor and Secretary of State. Not for the faint hearted.) Events were turbocharged by 9/11 and from then on American governments have been busily curtailing citizens’ rights at home and devastating soverign countries abroad. This is especially the case in the Middle East. Though the Americans have yet to win a war there, they have wreaked biblical havoc on the people and set countries like Iraq and Afghanistan back a century. And the end is not in sight. What is in sight is Iran and Venezuela.\n\nThe Benefits of Posturing\n\nFrom the days of the Project for the New American Century (PNAC, 1997-2006) when the Republican right finally showed its jingoist face, this scorched-earth policy was in the hands of Republicans. Democrats pretended to be different but most of them weren’t very different at all. Today, in a country that reveres wealth, most of them are wealthy. (Here’s the Wikipedia list of United States members of Congress by wealth. It’s headed by Republican representative, Kelly Loeffler who, along with her husband, chairman of the New York Stock Exchange, Jeffrey Sprecher, is currently under scrutiny for insider trading.) That makes perfect sense. The essence of American professional politics is to be in it for yourself but to pretend convincingly that you’re in it for others.\n\nIt’s not an easy assignment. The successful candidates must be bereft of scruples, morality, and simple decency–while projecting all the contrary. Like all liars they must be endowed with rich imaginations and prodigious memories. They must create their stories, live their lies and cover their tracks. Some manage it better than others. We can all recall the ones whose former slipups are coming back to haunt them: sexual harassment, racism, financial fraud, war mongering, gerrymandering, strange bedfellows. Some of the shrewder ones slather themselves in religion like predator species in the African savanna that roll in their would-be victims’ excrement to pass themselves off as friends. Anything goes.\n\nWhat about the Honest Politicians?\n\nIs this to suggest that there are no honest politicians. Of course not, to affirm that would be silly. There certainly remain some disinterested American politicians but they would all fit in a phone booth. Besides, they’re essentially boycotted by their right-wing colleagues of both parties. We must not forget that those who were once Democratic “moderates” by staying in the same place have been dragged inexorably to the right.\n\nThe rest can be bought. And the proof is there for anyone who has eyes to see. Look at the rock-solid support the state of Israel–the world’s smallest colonial country–enjoys in the US Congress. Is that based on solidarity or idealism? Don’t dream. Google it. It’s based on a complex honeycomb of backhanders and campaign donations engineered by the America Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) and others of their ilk. What about the numbingly repetitive re-election of incumbent US Congress members. Sitting members of the House of Representatives, in the congressional elections between the years 1988 and 2018, were re-elected between 80 and 90% of the time. The figures for the Senate are substantially higher. (Source: OpenSecrets.org) Is that due to legislative excellence? Or does it have to do with a bag of electoral shell games and campaign financing generously provided by big-bucks interests?\n\nIt wasn’t quite so cut and dried before the Supreme Court’s 2010 finding in the Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission case. That landmark decision concerning campaign finance freed corporations and labor unions to spend money on electioneering communications and to directly advocate for the election or defeat of candidates. The inclusion of labor unions in that decision was a public relations masterstroke. It suggests equanimity between owners and workers. But just try imagining the unions’ buying power compared to that of big industry. Now, 10 years later, the results are there for all to see. Big business has taken over the government and sucked it dry.\n\nWhat little was left of American democracy has been gutted by powerful interests that want it all, without realizing that by impoverishing their base they’re shooting themselves in the foot. Capitalism without customers is doomed. Suddenly the rate of decline in everything starts multiplying by geometric progressions. American politics has been cannibalized. American manufacturing became rust. That left financial services, an inherently incestuous business, destined to reduce the United States to that little country where the citizens manage to eke out meager livings by taking in one another’s laundry.\n\nAlong Comes the Quake\n\nThe culmination of this fascinating process took almost everyone by surprise and that stupor is growing daily by graceful gazelle leaps. With half the country wondering how to get rid of Trump and trumpism, and the other half revelling in hillbilly heaven, along comes the quake, the coronavirus, “COVID-19.” This microscopic killer that found its happy home in New York, and the Trump administration’s pathetic response to it, may ultimately take trumpism to its end. Just when the country vitally needs a unified, coherent universal health system–anathema to the reigning Republican right–the American people wake up to find any kind of coherence conspicuously lacking.\n\nIt occurs to the most perceptive among them that a battle against a highly-contagious virus cannot be waged piecemeal. As long as pockets of the virus remain active among the substantial untreated, uninsured population of the country, no one is safe from contagion. It follows logically that the whole trumpian laissez-faire edifice will come tumbling down. Just as public health emergencies require coordinated public responses so do the rest of the critical issues faced by any American government: education, the environment, climate change, foreign policy, defense, the economy and all the rest. This is laid out in his usual informative and affable fashion by Michael Lewis in his 2018 book, The Fifth Risk. Lewis, after crossing the country interviewing affected high-level public servants from the previous administration, recounts their versions of how the Trump government systematically dismantled vital federal agencies and programs with untold damage to education, the environment, nuclear management, etc.\n\nDoes this mean that America is about to abjure President Donald J. Trump and his army of wreckers? After all is said and done it may well mean that. Even if it were to happen it would be a bitter victory for reality-based America. Because it would come at a cost of hundreds of thousands of American lives, according to President Trump’s own most-optimistic estimate. Definitely not one of his best deals.\n\nThanks for following and sharing."

"Doctor How and the Illegal Aliens\n\nDoctor How’s famous megalomaniac brother Doctor Who sold his fictional life story to the BBC half a century ago, painting himself as a lone hero. Disillusioned, their four cousins dropped out. For fifty years, Doctor How has held the line against the forces of darkness and stupidity. And he’s not that happy, since you ask.\n\nIllegal aliens try to hack How’s Spectrel (TARDIS is a very rude word where he comes from), just as he suspects his estranged cousin Where has been compromised. When reports come in of mysterious attacks by alien creatures, Doctor How has to rely on his new companion Kevin, a petty criminal from south London, and Trinity, a morphing super-predator, as he counters this threat to humanity’s existence. Bungling agents from MI16, long desperate to capture the Time Keeper’s technology, hamper How’s efforts to combat the alien menace. Can Doctor How keep ahead of MI16, save Where and combat the alien threat?\n\nKevin lowered his window and said, “Come on, Doc. We haven’t got all night.”\n\nDoctor How smiled and took a couple of steps towards the cab.\n\nThere was a crash from inside the house, and the sound of splintering wood. The Doctor whipped around to see the sofa burst through the front window and tumble into the garden. It came to a stop upside down against the wall. He took a couple of steps back, pulled out his Ultraknife and held it towards the house.\n\n“Get in the bleedin’ cab and let’s go!” yelled Where.\n\n“I want to know what it is. Kill the headlights.”\n\n“Get in, Doctor!” shouted Kevin.\n\nThe wall beneath the living room window collapsed outward in a cloud of dust, and the radiator that sat underneath it fell with a resonating clang onto the rubble. Water gushed out of a piece of broken central heating pipe.\n\nA pair of black antennae waved through the dust. They were followed by two interlocking pairs of black mandibles two feet wide that scythed back and forth in the night air.\n\n“Oh, you absolute beauty,” said the Doctor, lowering his Ultraknife a fraction.\n\n“Oi, nutter! Get in the bleedin’ cab, will ya?” Where turned the headlights back on, lighting up the rest of the creature. It was six feet wide and six feet tall, with a rounded shiny black body.\n\n“It’s after you, cousin,” said Doctor How. Or your Spectrel. Or your cab. Or all three.”\n\n“Well, I don’t want to stick around and find out which, do I? Get in, you bleedin’ maniac!”\n\nThe Doctor opened the door and got in the front beside his cousin, who jammed the vehicle into reverse just as the creature edged forward a few feet, to where the cab had been two seconds before.\n\n“Wait!” said the Doctor. He slammed the cab into neutral and jerked the handbrake.\n\nMark Speed has been writing novels since he was fifteen. His comedy writing has appeared in",

He performed his solo comedy, The End of the World Show, at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2011 and 2012.

"St. Louis, MO – Current free-agent wide receiver Wes Welker, who enjoyed many fine years with the Patriots and Broncos before suffering several severe concussions, worked out for the St. Louis Rams today in hopes of rejuvenating his stalled career.\n\nThe 34-year-old wide receiver has worked out for several teams this year and the last, having not played a game in the NFL since 2014.\n\nHe continues to express disbelief that he is not employed by an NFL team, who may be wary of signing the once elite receiver due to his history of concussions.\n\n“I strongly believe I should still be in the National Federation Football League. The doctors say my brain function may not do too good, but I can still catch that dogskin with the best of them. Just give me a chance and I can lead this organization in catching feet, I tell you,” He told several assembled reporters at the Rams practice facility.\n\n“I’m still good enough to pitch in this confederation, and there’s no reason I shouldn’t be a member of the St. Louie Hams, or any squad in this division. Just give me a bat, give me a ball, give me some shin guards and a ham sandwich and I’ll be ready to play each Wednesday,” a laughing Welker told several nervous members of the media.\n\nReports coming out of the workout claim Welker seemed a bit rusty and had forgotten several of the basic elements of the game itself, showing up to the tryout wearing flip-flops and asking scouts when he would get a chance to punt the ball.\n\nAt one point during the workout he lined up on the defensive side of the ball and then ran into the stands where he started to play with an empty popcorn bucket before his handlers brought him back onto the field.\n\n“It felt great to be back out there with the guys. I thought we did enough to win out there today, but those Philadelphia Athletics just had our number. Lefty Grove pitched a hell of a game, had us all on our heels out there, he throws that apple with the best of them,” a glassy eyed Welker said, referring to a member of the Philadelphia Athletics, MLB 1930 World Series Champions, for some reason.\n\nAt press time, Welker had wandered into oncoming traffic outside of the practice facility and was reportedly trying to hitchhike to Gillette Stadium in time for Super Bowl XLVI."

"After reaching the playoffs for the first time in five years, the Las Vegas Raiders are eyeing much more than a postseason berth.\n\nA busy offseason headlined by adding Pro Bowl talents in Davante Adams and Chandler Jones has raised the bar of expectations for Las Vegas. However, there remains plenty of uncertainty due to the sheer level of competition that now resides in the AFC West.\n\nDespite that, quarterback Derek Carr voiced that the Raiders are using the lingering doubt as extra motivation.\n\n“It’s going to be fun,” Carr said, via Vic Tafur of TheAthletic.com. “No one thinks anything of us and I think that’s what makes it fun is you always have to put the ball down and play the football games. . . . You get frustrated when you see other people’s names on things and this and that. And you’re like, ‘We’re here, too. We feel like we got better, too.; I thought we made the playoffs.”\n\nThe Raiders hold the stiff task of playing in arguably the toughest division in the league. Each team in the AFC West improved its roster, which could see all four franchise makes a serious push for the division title in 2022.\n\nCarr will have plenty of pressure on his shoulders to build off last season’s success. The addition of Adams gives him a bonafide No. 1 passing game target, while the defense will need to take a significant step forward if the Raiders hope to make more than a push toward the playoffs."

"This is a fully automatic pail filling system built to operate 24/7 filling liquids into 5-gallon open-top pails. System is shown without the standard safety guarding.\n\nThis is a top-fill system with five gallon pails for non-foaming liquid products. Sub-surface systems are also available. Three rows of four pails are shown. The first row of pails is already filled and being conveyed to a lid press. The second row is positioned under the filling heads. The third row is accumulated behind them, ready to move in when filled pails move out.\n\nThe row of filled pails drives away where lids are automatically placed on top then they convey through a tunnel where lids are pressed on-the-fly. If a label is required, it would sequence after the lid press. The last machine in line is the automatic palletizer.\n\nThe fill rate of water is sixteen (16) pails per minute.\n\nUpon arrival, a photo-eye signals the computer to automatically tare the four containers to zero weight then start the fill cycle. At each filling station, both ball valves open wide for fast flow. Filling continues until the pre-designated weight is achieved in each container.\n\nNear the top, the slow fill valve activates to top-off the containers. When completed, the weights are calculated and recorded. The containers are then raised and conveyed out of the filling stations to make room for four empty containers to enter from the back. The cycle then repeats\n\nThe filling rate of this machine, using water as the tested product, is 16, five gallon open-top containers per minute."

"It’s been about six months since we got the PlayStation VR, and it is indeed a lovely bit of kit. Months later though, and I’ve just about exhausted the list of games on the system that I actually want to play. There are, however, some exciting new ones on the horizon – the most intriguing of which is Farpoint.\n\nLaunching alongside a bespoke FPS controller in the PS VR Aim Controller, Farpoint is a first-person shooter that puts you on a hostile alien world.",
null,
"“After crash landing, you have to fight to survive as you explore and uncover the planet’s secrets. Your only hope of escape is to keep moving and discover the fate of your team.”\n\nWith the aid of the new controller, Farpoint offers 1:1 motion tracking, which when coupled with VR should deliver an impressive and immersive experience. In addition to a full single player campaign, the game will also let you jump into online worlds with a friend, playing through missions co-operatively.\n\nAnd it’s just gone gold, which means it’ll make its May 16th shipping date. Here’s a look at the game’s single player, as expressed by a brand new trailer:\n\n“When we started working on Farpoint we knew from the beginning that we wanted it to have a deep and meaningful narrative. We wanted to use VR to tell a unique, more personal story in a way that put the player right in the middle of it.”\n\nIt looks pretty good – a bit like living in Starship Troopers – even if it may have comical facial animation to rival Mass Effect: Andromeda."

"From 26 to 30 November 2018, a high-level delegation from Belize is visiting Australia’s Great Barrier Reef to exchange best practices on leveraging their reef’s iconic World Heritage status, to protect their fragile ecosystems from climate impacts and secure sustainable livelihoods, jobs and income for local communities. The visit follows a series of landmark conservation actions that led to the removal of the Belize Barrier Reef Reserve System from the List of World Heritage in Danger earlier this year.\n\nAs the world’s most extensive coral reef ecosystem, the Great Barrier Reef is a globally outstanding and significant entity. It was inscribed on the World Heritage List in 1981 and covers an area larger than Italy. The Belize Barrier Reef Reserve System is one of the most pristine reef ecosystems in the Western Hemisphere and was referred to as ‘the most remarkable reef in the West Indies’ by Charles Darwin. It was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1996.\n\nEach World Heritage property makes a significant contribution to their country’s economy. About 200,000 Belizeans - half of Belize's population - are dependent on the reef for their livelihoods and 15 percent of the country’s gross domestic product (GDP) comes from the reef. The Great Barrier Reef generates on average 60,000 jobs and makes an annual contribution of 6.4 billion AUS dollars to Australia’s GDP.\n\n“A sustainable use of our Reef which brings jobs and income to the local community is essential if we wish to conserve our World Heritage site for future generations. We could not have done this without our prestigious World Heritage designation,” said Mr. Patrick Faber, Deputy Prime Minister of Belize.\n\nThe Belize delegation is led by the Honourable Mr. Patrick Faber, Deputy Prime Minister of Belize, and joining them are representatives from Australia’s Ministries of Environment and Foreign Affairs and Trade. The delegation is meeting with sustainable tourism operators and organisations, QLD government officials, scientists at the Australian Institute of Marine Sciences, the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority and other institutions. Central to their discussion is an exchange of best practices in building sustainable reef communities. Both World Heritage sites share a desire to step up their leadership in building reef strategies that protect these fragile ecosystems in a rapidly changing climate but simultaneously secure sustainable income for the communities that depend on them.\n\nBringing these success stories together in ways that make them suitable for replication in other marine areas is a central part of the World Heritage Centre Marine Programme’s work. Earlier this year, site-to-site exchanges included marine World Heritage sites in Sudan, Mauritania and South Africa where best practices on poverty reduction were shared.\n\nThe visit marks a highlight of the 2018 International Year of the Reef, an initiative from the International Coral Reef Initiative (ICRI), jointly co-chaired by the governments of Monaco, Australia and Indonesia until mid-2020.",

"Aamir Khan might be a social media recluse on most occasions but the actor doesn't shy away from sharing posts for his loved ones on social media. On his uncle Nasir Hussain's 17th death anniversary, Aamir Khan remembered the filmmaker by sharing a special post on his Instagram profile. The 53-year-old actor shared a throwback picture of Nasir Hussain along with late actor Shammi Kapoor. In his post, Aamir addressed Nasir Hussain as his \"guru\" and wrote: \"Remembering my uncle, Nasir Hussain, Chachajaan for me, my guru. Today is his death anniversary. It's been 17 years since we lost him.\"\n\nRemembering my uncle, Nasir Husain, Chachajaan for me, my guru. Today is his death anniversary. It's been 17 years since we lost him.\n\nNasir Hussain was the brother of filmmaker Tahir Hussain (Aamir's father). Nasir Hussain was married to assistant choreographer Ayesha Khan and the couple were parents to Mansoor Khan, who directed films like Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak, Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikander and Akele Hum Akele Tum, all of which starred Aamir Khan in the lead.\n\nOn the work front, Aamir Khan's last big release was the 2018 film Thugs Of Hindostan, which did not perform well at the box office. The Vijay Krishna Acharya-directed film also starred Amitabh Bachchan, Katrina Kaif and Fatima Sana Shaikh in pivotal roles."

"Steve appears to have light brown hair with long fringes in each side and black eyes. In his in-game appearance, his hair is light auburn and he has aqua blue eyes.\n\nHe wears a blue short sleeved openly loose prison button shirt with white outlines. It has the sign of \"Rockfort Prison 267\" at the back of his loose button shirt, underneath is a yellow tank top, shades of brown camouflage pants and brown combat boots. Like the other prisoners including his father, he has a choker on his neck as well as wearing black studded wristband in both of his wrists.\n\nWhen he was injected by Alexia Ashford from her mutant strain within The T-Veronica Virus, Steve's clothes are ripped into shreds and his skin becomes green with reptilian scales from top to bottom with large spikes from his shoulders, back and elbows and his feet becomes reptile-like. His eyes are red, though his hair remains the same, but darker. He also wields a giant axe that Alexia previously handed to him.\n\nIn Resident Evil The Darkside Chronicles, during the cutscenes in the Game of Oblivion segment, Steve's appearance is slightly similar to Leon's in Resident Evil 4 with fringes in each side of his hairstyle. His hair is now burnt orange and his eyes are blue. His main outfit had minor changes which include the collar of his prison button shirt is extended, sporting a yellow t-shirt, and his camouflage pants being yellow and green. He also gained a hoop earring on his left ear and a barcode tattoo on his left arm.\n\nIn his mutation form, his skin is pale green with purple streaks coming from his larger arms and more spikes at the left side of his back and his heart is exposed. He still wears his camouflage pants which were shredded into short-like remains instead of being completely removed. He also gains reptile-like fangs and his eyes remained red.\n\nWhen he reverted to normal, his skin became pale and the remaining reptilian-like skin were on his left face, left shoulder and the right chest, it was not seen in Resident Evil The Darkside Chronicles.\n\nSteve was imprisoned in the Rockfort Island's facility along with his father Mr. Burnside a former Umbrella employee and The Umbrella Corporation killed his mother Mrs. Burnside. He escapes from his cell during the viral outbreak. At first, he is hesitant to trust Claire and only cooperates with her reluctantly. Later however, Steve becomes more open and attached to her after he is forced to kill his own father who has become a zombie during the outbreak.\n\nSteve and Claire eventually end up in Umbrella's Antarctic Facility where he was captured by Alexia Ashford and used as a test subject for the T-Veronica Virus. Claire meets Steve who was chained and mutates into a monster and attacks Claire in this form. He is nearly invulnerable to damage and wields a giant ceremonial axe that normal humans couldn't do that.\n\nWhile running from Steve, Claire was attacked by one of Alexia's tentacles. Steve, seeing this, regains control of his mind and cuts the tentacle apart, freeing Claire. In retaliation, Alexia strikes him with one of the tentacles, inflicting a mortal wound. His failing body finally rejects the mutation, and he changes back. He dies in Claire's arms just after professing his love to her. Albert Wesker has mention him at the end of the game where he already taken Steve's corpse while Chris is dealing against a mutated Alexia and he remarks at the siblings that he will use him once he was resurrected to see Claire much to their fury. As his remark about Steve turns out to be a jab between the Redfield siblings.\n\nIn Resident Evil The Darkside Chronicles, it was revealed that Albert Wesker uses The T-Veronica Virus from Steve's corpse and given it to a South American drug lord named Javier Hidalgo and he uses this to cure his ailing daughter Manuela Hidalgo and this was the last mention about Steve.",

"Transitional rules mean savers could have twice their annual allowance before April\nHigher earners may have a golden opportunity to lock away more money tax-free in their pensions this year, before pension tax relief is cut next April.\nCurrently, people can put £40,000 of their earnings into a pension each year, without paying any tax. This is called an “annual allowance”. If that amount was taken as income – say, paid by an employer or received from dividends – it would be taxed at the individual’s highest rate.\n\nThe bad news is that from the next tax year starting in April 2016, the annual allowance is to be cut for people who pay the additional rate of tax – those with an income above £150,000. This has been dubbed “punishing” by industry figures, but may well be the first of many measures to cut tax relief on pensions.\nFrom April next year, the annual allowance will be cut by £1 for each £2 earned over £150,000. It will taper down until it hits the new personal allowance level for higher earners, which is £10,000.\nThis £150,000 threshold is not just salary, it includes income from dividends, interest on savings and may include employer pension contributions. It is called an “adjusted income”, and will capture more than just those with jobs paying over £150,000.\n“The government will reduce, on a sliding scale, the annual allowance for those with adjusted incomes over £150,000,” explains Martin Tilley of Dentons Pension Management. “The maximum reduction is £30,000 leaving an annual allowance of £10,000. So once the income is over £210,000 there is no further reduction.”\nIn figures, someone earning £160,000 will only be able to put £35,000 into a pension without paying tax. For a person earning £210,000, they will only be allowed to put £10,000 into their pension before tax.\nOf course, anybody is free to contribute more to a pension, but this will have to come out of after-tax earnings. The tax-free allowance had been a real benefit, as it allowed people to keep a good portion of their earnings away from the tax man and put it straight into savings for retirement.\n\nBut there has been one other tweak to pensions rules which could represent an opportunity to save more tax-free into a pension.\nA “pension input period” is the time over which a person can use their £40,000 allowance. But this varies depending on the individual; for some it runs from December to December, and for other people it is June to June. The government has decided to tighten this up. The pensions allowance will mirror the tax year, from April to April each year.\n“Previously, pension input periods lasted a year but that start and end date varied from one individual to the next, sometimes dependent on when they first started paying into the scheme,” explains Tony Harris of Old Mutual Wealth.\n“In order to achieve a uniform pension input period for all savers, the government has pressed reset, with everyone starting a new input period from 9 July 2015 to 6 April next year.”\n\nThis means there is a transitional period which will allow people who have already used up their annual allowance to have an extra input period, where they can double up on pension contributions.\nSome people could be saving £80,000 towards their pension this year without paying tax.\n“What this means is that a saver who has an open input period, but has already maxed out their contributions, will now have a new window to make contributions up to the £40,000 annual allowance,” says Harris. “It will be the last chance for higher earners to benefit from tax relief on a £40,000 gross contribution, before the punishing reductions in the annual allowance kick-in next year.”\n\nAnother aspect to consider is that the £40,000 annual allowance can be carried forward from the previous three tax years. To work out how many extra contributions an individual can make, they must look up their records of how much has been contributed in previous years, and whether any part of the old annual allowance has been carried forward. “You will also need to know the dates of the pension input periods because this will determine which annual allowance they fall into,” says Claire Trott of Talbot and Muir.\nFinally, tax-free pension contributions can only be as high as an individual’s annual salary. So in the event that any carry-forward from previous annual allowances, plus this extra window, are higher than this year’s adjusted income, the pension contributions will be limited to the level of annual income.\n\nHigher earners who have got wind of this are already investigating, and some experts predict aggregate pension contributions will be higher than ever this year.\n“From early conversations we are having with our clients, we are seeing a strong desire to maximise pension contributions in the current tax year. I suspect we will see record amounts paid into pensions before the next Budget, just in case [of further changes],” says Andrew Pennie of Intelligent Pensions.\nIt can be complicated to ascertain exactly who can benefit from this extra window for contributions, so it is best to leave it to a professional to look at one’s individual circumstances. “The rule changes are complicated but it is well-worth speaking to a financial adviser if you believe you may be eligible to make additional contributions,” says Harris.\n\nThe government is currently consulting on pension tax relief, and is expected to present the results of its findings alongside some new rules in the March 2016 Budget.\nFurther limitations to tax-free pension contributions are possible. “The Treasury sent a clear sign they are looking to reduce the cost of pension tax relief,” says Pennie."

"A bill to lift Vermont’s prohibition on happy hour received a spirited response from legislators Tuesday.\n\nThe oft-debated idea of allowing restaurants, bars and breweries to sell discounted booze for up to two hours a day had some legislators downright tipsy with anticipation.",
null,
"“How about a field trip to test it?” quipped Rep. John Killacky (D-South Burlington), a member of the House Committee on General, Housing and Military Affairs, which heard the bill pitched for the first time this session.\n\n“I’ve lived in three states and this is the only one that doesn’t have a happy hour,” Rep. Marianna Gamache (R-Swanton) said wistfully. “I think it’s a good idea.”\n\nCommittee chair Tom Stevens (D-Waterbury) had a more sober response, reminding his fellow legislators that if the committee seriously considers the bill its members will undoubtedly hear from residents of Burlington — which has three colleges — concerned about young people overindulging.\n\nStevens noted there are already some “workarounds” of the law, including “appy hour,” for which appetizers are discounted to draw in hungry patrons. Specific beverages can also be discounted all day, which is why Positive Pie in Montpelier sells Heady Topper for $5 on Tuesdays, he noted.\n\nThat prompted Rep. Matt Birong (D-Vergennes) to fondly recall how Three Needs Taproom and Brewery in Burlington used this loophole during its “Duff Hour” specials.\n\n“They would tap a keg of Saranac for $2 a pop, until the keg runs out, starting when the Simpsons started at 4:30 p.m.,” Birong said.\n\nRep. Matthew Trieber (D-Rockingham) said he sponsored the bill in recognition of the tourist trade connected to the state’s unique craft brewers and distillers.\n\n“We thought this may be a way to help some of our restaurants and bar owners capitalize on that a little bit, and allow some of the local breweries to be tried out at a cheaper price,” Trieber said.\n\nThe legislator added that 42 other states in the nation allow happy hours, though he noted Massachusetts does not. He expressed openness to limiting the hours or types of drinks allowed to be sold at reduced prices if the committee had concerns. “Anything is better than nothing,” Trieber said.\n\nStevens said it’s not clear if his committee “has enough juice” to take on the issue this session, but if it did, “It'll be a lively conversation, especially if we start at 5 p.m.”\nPrev\nNext"

"What could be better for a fisherman than an afternoon of brown trout fishing in one of Michigan’s freshwater rivers, lakes or streams surrounded by a fall palette of colors and an icy cold six-pack of beer? Cue “First Brown,” the latest brew created by Detroit’s Atwater Brewery, just in time for the fall fishing season.\n\n“Going fishing with a cold beer is a time-honored tradition,” said Mark Rieth, Atwater owner. “Atwater is all about continuing Detroit’s brewing tradition with great German-style beers and sharing them with beer lovers from around the country. The brown trout shares a common history as it was first imported from Germany, gained popularity in Michigan and has now traveled the country to great acclaim.”\n\nAlthough First Brown has a “fishy” theme, it carries a smooth taste and color of fall. First Brown is a classically-inspired brown ale. It’s garnet-brown, akin to nut brown ales and is brewed with traditional English hops and malts. It’s an easy-drinking malt-forward ale that finishes more dry than sweet.\n\nAtwater commissioned Derek DeYoung, a nationally known artist and avid fly fisherman, to create a richly textured and vibrantly colorful label that captures the majesty of the brown trout it depicts.\n\nA portion of all First Brown sales will be returned to Trout Unlimited, an organization dedicated to preserving and protecting cold water waterways and fisheries."

"Our feelings about the Abbott Freestyle Libre System\n\n2 of my 3 boys with Type 1 Diabetes are Dexcom users.\n\nOne boy uses it because he likes the security of knowing his numbers all the time. He will glance at his phone, confirm how he feels, and move on.\n\nOne boy uses it because I still have some tiny amount of say in his life. He hates the alarms and he turns them off while at school. (I told you the amount of my influance is tiny. It’s pretty much microscopic.) With his social anxiety, having an alarm that might turn heads his way is devastating. But the silver lining lies in the fact that I get his numbers on my phone too, so I will text him when he needs a correction or food. The vibration of his phone alerts him of my text, and things get taken care of.\n\nOne boy refuses to wear the Dexcom. He is 20. I can’t force him to wear it anymore. He hates the alarms. He hates the profile. He hates having me see everything. I get it. I’m not happy about it. But I get it.\n\nWe’re the Goldilocks and the Three Bears of Dexcom users.\n\nSo when friends on Facebook started trialing Abbott’s Freestyle Libre, the wheels in my brain began turning at full speed. And when I saw that we could get a free reader and one free sensor if we were Dexcom users, sparks were flying.\n\nI got our Endo to send in a script to CVS, and brought our coupons over once the Libre arrived.\n\nI watched a quick YouTube video and immediately put it on J. He said it hurt a little, but was so pleasantly surprised with the low profile of the Libre, he smiled wide.\n\nBACKGROUND ON J: Diagnosed at 8months old, J is a sevant of sorts. He has an exceptional ability to feel his blood sugars. It’s every D-Mom’s dream. The problem with this is he has an unhealthy confidence about his numbers and tests his blood sugars far less than I, or his Endo, would like. I’ve witnessed him eat without testing first, because he “feels like he’s going low.” I’ve witnessed him bolus without checking his sugar because he “feels a little too high.” When witnessing these events I’ve tested his blood sugar myself…and he has always been right. It’s all so wonderful and frustrating. Wonderful because it’s a dream ability to have and I'm thankful he listens so closely to his body. Frustrating because I know he only has to be wrong one time for catastrophic consequences.\n\nHe seriously loves it. And that isn’t just commentary. Last night he stopped me and word for word said, “Mom, I seriously love this thing.”",
null,
"He scans his blood sugar ALL THE TIME.\n\nHe comes home from a full shift at work and I ask if he checked today.\n\n\nI see him scan himself all the time at home. I see him scan himself before eating, before driving, before sleeping…and he’s asked me to scan him a couple times while he was lounging on the couch. It’s truly a miracle. To add to the awesomeness, the scans have arrows and graphs. It works much like a CGM, showing if his blood sugar is rising, dropping, or steady.\n\nIt’s been so life changing for J, I decided to let B try it for a month.\n\nUpon insertion he said, “I felt nothing.” Win.\n\nThough when time for school he said he wouldn’t use it during class because it makes a loud BEEP noise when you scan.\n\nI just found out you can mute the noise.\n\n\nWould I rather have them on Dexcoms? Of course. But this is a fantastic compromise for all of us.\n\n*Nighttime checks without pricking fingers? Yes, please! I think about when J was a baby and how nice it would have been to not wake him at night to check…and to know what direction his sugars were headed. Man, I feel like it was the dark ages back then!\n\n*The sensor never needs to be calibrated, although, upon insertion, it does make you wait 12 hours to begin getting numbers. We put it on before bed and he’s ready to go in the morning.\n\n*The numbers seem to be quite accurate. Maybe 5 points off at times, but hot dang, it's good.\n\n*The sensor lasts 10 days, and it doesn’t fall off. That thing STICKS. (Little ones might need to use baby oil when removing.)\n\n*It’s way cheaper than Dexcom. The reader is one time $60-$75 dollars, and the sensors are around $50-$60 dollars for a month’s supply if you use the Singlecare Pharmacy Savings Card.\n\nSuffice it to say, we are pleasantly surprised how well this is going. I’m thankful for the tools we have to keep my boys safe, and thankful to finally have something reasonable priced. Believe it or not, Abbott didn't ask me to write this, or even ask me to trial this. Even though this might seem like an advertisement for the Libre, our systems were acquired by me and used by my very opinionated boys.\n\nIf you have questions, leave them in the comments. We're newbies, but I'll do my best to help!\n\nAHHHH! I love breathing in this Blogger air. I've missed you guys!"

"Melbourne chef has created a menu of more than 70 recipes",

"Julie Shipley of the Soup shop sells soups from her store in Melbourne, and also provides them for area restaurants and markets.(Photo: The Soup Shop)\n\nRemember the Soup Nazi from “Seinfeld?” He made soups to die for, but was, to put it kindly, challenged when it came to interacting with customers. Like the Soup Nazi, soup guru Julie Shipley makes memorable soups, but thankfully, she also has outstanding people skills, as the customers to her Soup Shop can attest.\n\nEven if you have never set foot in the Soup Shop, you have probably tasted some of Shipley’s soupy concoctions, for the Melbourne resident was providing soups to local restaurants well before she decided to open her bricks-and-mortar business along Wickham Road in 2009.\n\nQuestion: What is your history, Julie?\n\nAnswer: I grew up in the Air Force and lived all over the world with my family. My dad retired when I was 17. Phillip was an Air Force pilot when I met and married him. Phillip and I have been happily married for 26 years.\n\nQ: How did you get into the soup business?\n\nA: Originally, I made soup in small quantities for a local cafe. After I figured out how to make my soups in larger quantities, I presented them to local restaurants, and before long I was delivering twice a week to nearly two dozen locations.\n\nEach week, my customers requested new and different soups. Eventually, my menu grew to over 74 types of soups. Currently, we carry over 40 in stock and rotate the others into the menu seasonally.\n\nEmbrace the cuteness of Cocoa Village’s House of Pastel\n\nQ: How did you develop the soups?\n\nA: Some of the soups have fun stories attached. For instance, I kept getting requests for She Crab soup. Being a Texas girl, I had only heard of Lobster Bisque, but not crab. I got in my car and drove to Savannah, Georgia, and ate She Crab soup for three days. I experienced the good, the bad and the ugly. Upon returning home, I created my version of the soup. It is one of our best sellers and is served in one of the finest restaurants on the Space Coast.\n\nAnother soup with a story is my Green Chile Chicken. My husband is a commercial airline pilot and would often stop in the Albuquerque airport. There was a restaurant that often had aircrews standing in long lines for their soup. Phillip called and described it to me over the phone. I worked on a recipe, got his approval and now we have an aircrew following for our own version.\n\nA: That would be my Chicken Enchilada. I worked for months creating this soup. It was originally requested by a restaurant client that was trying to replace a popular soup from a big supplier. I failed to match the flavor time and time again. I threw wooden spoons and cussed and fussed trying to duplicate that soup. Finally, after several months and about 30 different variations, I decided that whether it matched that soup or not, it was a great soup and I was done working on it. I simply did not have access to or a desire to use ingredients that I couldn’t pronounce, like the big supplier did. This soup is far and away our best-selling soup today.\n\nQ: Your own favorite soup?\n\nA: My personal favorite is the She Crab. Phillip’s is the Hearty Italian, which is a very meaty soup with ground beef, homemade pork, sausage, spinach, beans and potatoes. It has a wonderful flavor.\n\nQ: What should first-time patrons to your Soup Shop try?\n\nA: First time patrons are in for a treat in our store. We normally have around 15 hot soups available and encourage them to try them all before picking one. For the undecided, we offer a soup flight that allows you to pick three different kinds of soup.\n\nA: My husband, Phillip, works with Southwest Airlines. His job moved us to Melbourne from Dallas back in the spring of 2001. Our son, Ross, was only a little fellow at the time I opened my shop. Now, he is a member of the United States Coast Guard stationed in Kodiak, Alaska. We couldn’t be more proud to see our son follow in the patriotic footsteps of his relatives.\n\nQ: Three words that describe you?\n\nA: I would describe myself as grateful, loyal and honest. I am so grateful for the people that The Soup Shop has brought into my life. The people that work with me have become my family, and they are as devoted to the soup and the customers as I am. It is my goal to make The Soup Shop successful enough to reward all of them in a huge way.\n\nA: I am blessed to be able to say that I do not have any unfulfilled bucket list items. There are places like Hawaii that I would like to see someday, but if I never do, I still had an amazing, happy, fulfilled life.\n\nQ: Famous person you would love to see at The Soup Shop?\n\nA: I would like to see Marcus Lemonis (“The Profit”) in my store. I have been tweeting him for years to no avail.\n\nWhere: 4100 N. Wickham Road, Suite 104, Melbourne, where the shop’s full menu of hot soups, sandwiches, salads and other fun stuff are available.\n\nThe Soup Shop’s quarts and pints of soup are also for sale at Melbourne Beach Market, 302 Ocean Ave.; The Shoppes on Strawbridge, across from City Hall on Strawbridge Ave., Melbourne; and at Alimentary Gourmet Market on A1A in Vero Beach.\n\nThe Soup Shop ships all its soups nationwide in half-gallon containers.\n\nOf note: People with limited mobility or small children can ask for curbside delivery.\n\n“We will run their order out to the car for them,” said owner Julie Shipley.\n\nThe Soup Shop will also gladly puree any soup to help people with swallowing difficulties."
