Nuoc mam defines Vietnamese culinary tradition
July 4, 2006
Traditional Miscellany
by Huu Ngoc
I ate dinner more than once with Tran Dang Khoa, the poet in restaurants during the course of our travels. Before tasting the regional specialities, he always began by serving himself a small bowl of hot rice sprayed with a little nuoc mam (fish sauce).
Nuoc mam has such a strong smell that airlines forbid its transport on their aircraft. There were some young Vietnamese going to study abroad who had transgressed that prohibition. In the 1980s, a Vietnamese student who came from Ha Noi had caused a regrettable scandal at the East Berlin airport: he slipped on the waxed floor and had fallen flat on his back, breaking a bottle of nuocmam hidden in a nylon bag. Getting rid of the smell took hours.
Why does nuoc mam have such a strong power of gastronomic seduction? Nuoc means water or liquid. Mam means the brine of fish or crustaceans often conserved as a thick liquid, of which the people of Southeast Asia are very fond. Nuoc mam is a salted solution that comes from the fermentation of the flesh of small fish. It is a Vietnamese speciality. (There is also another type of fish sauce in Thailand.) To make it, one adds alternating layers of fish and salt in a huge wooden barrel. After a certain time, one removes the liquid accumulated at the bottom and pours it back on top. This is done repeatedly. The first extracted solution (nuoc cot, nuoc nhat) is very rich in protein, often drunk in winter by fishermen and divers to preserve body heat. The nuoc mam nhi (or ri) extracted directly from the bottom of the barrel is of the best quality. Nuoc mam contains sodium chloride, amino acids, histamines, organic phosphate and minerals.
I visited centres of production of the best nuoc mam in Viet Nam: the islands of Phu Quoc, Phan Thiet, and Cat Hai. I was very impressed by the importance of their production, particularly for Vietnamese living abroad. During the era of French colonisation, the Lien Thanh Company of Phan Thiet distributed nuoc mam in the country and abroad, having presented the sauce to the l'Exposition Internationale (International Exposition) in Marseilles in 1922. Phan Thiet became a famous commercial brand. Unilever, a major European food company, created a business on the island along with 18 local partners. The joint venture company Quoc Duong produced and bottled ultra-hygienic nuoc mam (20 million litres per year), a proportion of which was exported to overseas Vietnamese in France, Germany and in the United States. The company preserved the traditional way of production of nuoc mam. I have met the Phu Hiep family, who specialised in nuoc mam for three generations.
A handicap for the exportation of nuoc mam to Europe and America is its odour, although it is not stronger than Roquefort or Gibier faisande. Once the repugnance of the smell is conquered, the amber liquid finally pleases the palate. Cook Cam Van presented it to a culinary festival organised by the Culinary Institute of America in the United States, and French chef Didier Corlou of the Sofitel Metropole Hanoi organised a symposium about nuoc mam. To neutralise the odour, Ms Mai Pham counselled people to serve it diluted with a special sauce, and to never add it to a plate being prepared without a hot saucepan ("The Best of Vietnamese and Thai Cooking," Prima Publishing, 1996).
Traditional Vietnamese meals are served with all dishes displayed on a round brass tray, with a bowl of nuoc mam in the middle. Diners soak pieces of food in nuoc mam. Nuoc mam is also served to raise the tastes of all dishes. It is a sauce served plain, or mixed with other ingredients: red chilli seasoning, ginger, oil, vinegar, sugar and lime. Nuoc mam served with hard-boiled duck eggs is a Ha Noi speciality. Nuoc mam condensed by heat is a dietary element and is considered good for sick people and mothers of newborns. Nuoc mam paste was served to conserve the fighters along the Ho Chi Minh Trail during the war. — VNS

Thank you for useful information. In Thailand, fish sauce is also very important on each meal. The very first thing being served on the your meal when you have a lunch or dinner in thai restaurant is " fish sauce with chilli". Chopped Thai Chilli normally added in the small bowl of fish sauce. Lemon or Lime may be added to this bowl to enhance the its taste. In Thailand one family with 3-4 members consumes more than 1 litre monthly.

Please note that I am NOT saying to take stuff away from the non-members(even if we do have to work hard for most of the stuff that is being released for just doing one challenge). I mean to ADD new stuff for Diamond Members. Also I honestly do NOT care how greedy or inconsiderate you find this because if you do you are not understanding what I am saying. I would like everyone to please participate in this poll to share your opinion on this. I am also asking Moderators not to focus on the no's but on the yes's, I ask this because MOST of the users on the Imagine Town forum are non-members. I am not saying to ignore them I am just saying please look at the yes's and not just on the no's. And also Moderators please realize that I am not the first to make this as a suggestion(those ones were all just ignored or forgotten) and by ignored I don't mean by Moderators

A Smoky Skies Bulletin continues for many areas of the province including Okanagan and Shuswap. The bulletin was expanded Wednesday to include nine more areas including the Boundary and West Columbia regions.
The bulletin released by provincial health and environment officials advises people to "avoid strenuous outdoor activities."
"If you are experiencing any of the following symptoms, contact your health care provider: difficulty in breathing, chest pain or discomfort and sudden onset of cough or irritation of airways. Exposure is particularly a concern for infants, the elderly and those who have underlying medical conditions such as diabetes and lung or heart disease," advised the bulletin.
Late Wednesday morning, the Air Quality Health Index for all areas of the Okanagan was rated as a moderate health risk. In Kamloops, the health risk was considered very high on Wednesday morning.

Happy February everyone!
It feels really good that I have Internet connection at home, at last!
It was truly a hectic week for me.
All of the moving things and its problems, set up everything, find the furnitures while I still need to go to work and the 'no Internet' for a week is just killing me, but thanks God it's all done.
My new apartment is almost perfect. I am just waiting for my sofa and some shopping in Ikea and the housewarming will be here.. soon ;)
Love the fact that I can decorate my own place, even I won't be living here for a long time :(
Anyway, will post some pictures later >.<

David and Carol Martin, both 54, from Hawick in the Scottish Borders, are celebrating scooping the massive prize after matching six correct numbers in Saturday's record draw.
The couple had been relaxing at home, "completely unaware" that the Lotto ticket on their mantelpiece held the winning numbers until a visit from a friend who urged them to check it.
David and Carol Martin, a husband and wife from Hawick in the Scottish Borders, celebrate at the Dalmahoy Hotel & Country Club in Edinburgh after winning (Photo: PA)
Mr Martin, who works for Borders Care and Repair which helps elderly and disabled fit equipment in their homes, said: "My mate Keith had popped over for a chat on Sunday morning when he mentioned that there had been two Lotto winners in the big rollover the night before.
"I hadn't checked my ticket, so I removed it from the mantelpiece and thought I'd take a quick look but for some reason we couldn't find the results in the paper.
"After Keith had left, Carol and I were tucking into bacon and black pudding rolls when we decided to check the ticket against the results on her phone.
"I had three lines, all Lucky Dip tickets, and as Carol called out the numbers, I realised that the first line matched up one by one. We must have checked it another ten times or more.
He added: "I've dreamt of this moment many times but when it actually came, it was a just total shock.
"We were both stunned into silence. We kept re-checking the numbers as we thought there must be a mistake.
"Then we called Camelot to see if it could possibly be true. The lady at the end of the phone was really nice and told us we were right, we were winners.
The couple won half of the historic £66 million Lotto jackpot (Photo: PA)
"All we could do was drink lots of hot tea and try and make sense of it all. The information just wasn't going in."
The couple, who have been married for 28 years, are planning to retire as soon as possible and said they would love a new home in the country, local to where they live now, and a holiday home in the sun.
Their winning Lotto Jackpot ticket was bought from Morrisons in Hawick and the winning numbers were 26, 27, 46, 47, 52 and 58.
The couple's win has catapulted them to the top of the Lotto rich list, overtaking the previous biggest Lotto winners, Paul Maddison and Mark Gardiner, who shared a £22.5 million jackpot in 1995.
The massive jackpot was the result of 14 rollovers.
New rules stipulated that once the amount went over £50 million it would have been shared between the next tier down of winners if no one matched all six numbers. The other ticket remains unclaimed.

Rock fans should be fairly happy this week with a higher than average quota of gigs coming from their favoured genres, but that is not to say that between the louder and more shouty selections there aren't a few other styles being well represented and at least one iconic act crossing the parish boundary as well.
We The Deceiver lay generically midway between Post-Hardcore and Djent (which I have to admit I thought was a small town in Tunisia, but which is actually a gnarly, muted, low-end guitar driven style) so expect their set at The Victoria tonight to be filled with thunderous grooves, intense riffs and bombastic beats. Local support comes in the form of Roads To Nowhere, a similarly uncompromising onslaught of extreme and brutal sounds.
As if to balance the extremes of that gig, Keith Thompson plays The Beehive in solo mode. Rootsy, southern fried blues blending effortlessly with more homegrown influences to great effect.
Friday at Riffs Bar sees rock on the menu, this time from Clay Gods, a band who weave dark atmospherics, gritty grooves and lyrics equally at home delivering rock standard street sleaze as they are thought-provoking philosophizing. Joining them on the bill is The Dirty Smooth, who write tunes hard enough for the boys to rock out to, but sweet enough for the girls to dance to, and the blues fuelled alt-rock of Four Dead Crows.
More solid rocking options can be found at The Rolleston as Hot Flex deliver classic heavy rock and metal covers and the mercurial Bruise make a welcome return to The Beehive. Imagine the song writing sensibilities of Joni Mitchell, the dynamics and production values of Genesis and the epic pop of The Eurythmics and you only start to get a feel for what this amazing duo have to offer.
A Songs of Praise occasional Friday show is also to be found at The Victoria where White Lilac headline. They may look familiar, having evolved from Faye Rogers and her band but the sound is a whole quantum leap into new musical territory. The pastoral folksiness has been swapped for chiming guitars, brooding cello, distant crashing percussion, sonorous saxophones and a whole wash of gothic beauty and post punk edginess. It's a musical transformation that you need to hear…and indeed see, to believe. Joining them is the sweeping dynamic soundscape of Familiars (pictured), a more chilled, piano driven White Lies perhaps and the shoegaze referencing but up to the moment indie of Coco Esq.
Saturday sees the icon I mentioned hit the stage as multi-million selling recording artist and award-winning actress, Barbara Dickson plays The Wyvern Theatre.
Beans on Toast may be seen to be an icon to some, albeit in a more niche and under-the-counter-culture sort of way. He brings his incisive and hung-over musical take on modern life to The Victoria before heading off to the States to play with Irish punk-folk exiles Flogging Molly. He brings with him someone you will all by now be familiar with (if not why not?) Gaz Brookfield, our very own slice of poor boy makes good and purveyor of charismatic, heartfelt and infectious songs. Ben Wiltshire and Sophie Brown get the night started.
Explosive, raucous, boozy, sweary and unpredictable music can be found at The Rolleston as The Hamsters From Hell celebrate their 30th Birthday Bash, probably not what your significant other had in mind as an option for St Valentines Day, but certainly a real test of a relationship. Support comes from 2 Sick Monkeys.
The Lazy Sunday Afternoon sessions hosted by Mr Love and Justice are now being held at The Central Library and this month they have a couple of very special acts for you. Local roots collective S'Go mix up folk, blues and country styles with more eclectic gypsy jaunts, shanty shindigs, café jazz and everything in between. Also appearing are Lightgarden a band whose celtic jigs and eastern vocal tones are a beautiful mix of orient and occident.
Finally, The Roaring Donkeys Wednesday offer to break up the working week comes with a stripped back show from Kitchen Sink Dramas; poignant social comment meets infectious musicianship, wit and wisdom all in one place.

Red, White and Mego: Diamond Select Toys' Marvel Retro Captain America 8″ Figure Set is Available for Pre-Order
Diamond Select Toys has just announced that it is taking pre-orders for the next installment in its Marvel Retro series of limited edition 8-inch Mego figure sets: Captain America. The first set for Spider-Man was announced a few months ago, and upcoming sets are rumored to include Iron Man and Wolverine.
Like the Spider-Man set, the Captain America set will be a limited edition that features a precise recreation of the original 1973 Mego Captain America action figure along with additional head and hand sculpts, costumes, and accessories. Unlike the Spider-Man set, none of the head sculpts, costumes or accessories will include nods to the '70s era live-action TV version of this superhero. Then again, the '70s weren't very kind to Cap, since that particular incarnation (played by Reb Brown) looked to merge him with attributes from motorcycle stunt superstar Evel Knievel, presumably for merchandising reasons. Even HYRDA wouldn't be that cruel.
Captain America from the '70s: Genetically-enhanced Super Soldier
and motorcycle stunt attraction. Top that, Chris Evans!

Aaron Burriss is a Philippines born American YouTuber, who is known for his YouTube channel 'Lazyron Studios'. He generally creates funny videos including, parodies, pranks, sketches and challenges, and also posts vlogs. He started his YouTube channel by posting a few random humorous videos, and gained over 100k subscribers in just two years. As his fan base grew, he started to post more frequently and currently uploads one video every day. The videos on his channel featuring his brothers are the most popular ones. He also features regularly on his younger brother Alex's channel 'Wassabi Productions'. Many of his friends have appeared on his channel from time to time; his former girlfriends have been the most common faces to feature on his channel, apart from his brothers. Moreover, he has featured on a number of other YouTube channels, most notably, on the channel 'POPSUGAR Girls' Guide' for the video 'How to Break Up (but Nicely) With Aaron Burriss' for the channel's 'Pour Decisions With Candace' section, and on the channel 'LeendaDProductions' for the video 'Running Into Your Ex-Girlfriend'.

- While studying in college, Aaron Burriss grew lazy, always looking for easier ways to do things. In his attempt to look for shortcuts, he tried many things like throwing the garbage bag out of the window into the trash can, walking his dog Hiccup from his bed with the help of a long rope, etc. During this time, he also liked filming a lot of his daily activities, almost anything he possibly could. Realizing the treasure of humorous contents he had accumulated, he decided to upload his videos on to YouTube. He and his brother, Alex, came up with the title for his channel, 'Lazyron Studios'. He uploaded the first video, 'How to Take Care of Your Dog', on March 30, 2013. The video shows his attempts at taking care of his pet dog without ever leaving the comforts of his bed. He is making videos regularly ever since, sometimes with his friends, and has gained over a million subscribers to his YouTube channel.Recommended Lists:

- Aaron Burriss had been in a relationship with fellow YouTuber Kimmy Dufresne for about two years, but the two broke up in April 2016. She featured on his channel regularly while they were together. Later, in mid-2016, he fell in love with Sarah Wolfgang, another YouTuber and a former member of the K-pop girl group 'Tahiti'. However, the union did not last too long as the two decided to part ways amiably later that year. His brother Alex was the first to reveal their broke up; following which he explained that they realized that it wasn't the right time for either of them to be in a relationship. He also insisted that they were still friends and that they were okay with the way things are now. Stating that he was not sure if he should have entered the relationship in the first place, he mentioned that he wanted to "make it work" with Sarah nevertheless, because she was "awesome" and the "perfect" person for him. Unfortunately, "time just wasn't working" for them, which led to the breakup.Recommended Lists:

- Aaron Burriss was born on February 4, 1989, in Clark Air Base Hospital in the Philippines. His parents first met there and spent a few years, but moved to America when he was about one year old. They initially settled in Montana, but the family eventually moved to Lexington, Kentucky after a few years. By this time, Aaron Burriss had a younger brother named Alex and also a younger sister.Recommended Lists:
Recommended Lists:
- He attended a private school in Kentucky, where he excelled in study as well as sports, and also made a lot of good friends. The family then shifted again, this time settling in North Carolina, where he attended middle school. Middle school was not a particularly fond memory for him, as according to him, he was the short, fat kid with braces and squinted eyes who got teased and bullied often. To escape bullying, he buried himself into books and focused more on his studies, which helped him in getting good grades, but hardly saved him from bullying.
- High school was not any better for him, but his parents had another child around this time, his kid brother Andrew, which encouraged him to spend more time with his family. He changed school in his senior year, and also had a physical transformation, becoming slimmer. As a result, his experience in his new school was considerably better. After graduation, he enrolled into University of North Carolina at Charlotte where he became close friends with Ant, Kyle and Zach, who sometimes appear in his videos. He is currently based in Los Angeles, California. He is rumored to be dating YouTube star Veronica Merrell.

Following in his father's footsteps, first son Eric Trump blasted the media on Thursday morning, saying the press focuses all of its coverage on "nonsense" and "garbage."
Appearing on "Fox and Friends," Trump claimed that markets and job growth are at an "all time high," yet the media is focused on covering whether the President colluded with Russia to meddle in the 2016 election.
"If you look at the amount of coverage that has been directed to that story and all that nonsense and garbage versus the amount of coverage directed to the fact that the Dow is at an all-time high, that the S&P 500 is at a all-time high, that the Russell 2,000 is at an all time high," he said. "I mean, we're thriving as a nation. Everybody wants to get focused on nonsense. On garbage. On distractions."
He went on to say his family feels personally betrayed by some members of the media who used to be family friends, and are now spewing "visceral hatred." He specifically called out CNN host Anderson Cooper for "rolling his eyes" at top White House aide Kellyanne Conway.
"I mean, there are people that I know who know we are good people, quality people, you know, nice people, honest people, sincere, whatever other words you can put to it. You had a relationship with them, you were friends with them. That's not that they shouldn't ask tough questions. That's the job. And then you look at the visceral hatred and it's visceral, you look at their approach, you look at the negativity to everything," he said.
He said he blames the negative narrative in the news about his father on "some boss at one of these networks" who is telling the reporters to "spew a line of garbage."
"And, listen, it's hurtful in a certain way, but you know what I'll say about my father, he is an incredible fighter, and he will never stop fighting," he said.

Virgin Hotels Debuts In Chicago
The highly-anticipated Virgin Hotels Chicago has opened its doors, heralding the arrival of Sir Richard Branson's new hotel venture since it was first announced in late 2010. The 250-room property occupies the historic Old Dearborn Bank building in the city's downtown business district, following an extensive refurbishment of the art deco landmark.
Dubbed as Chambers, each accommodation is separated into 2 lifestyle-focused spaces by sliding privacy doors. The sleeping lounge features the brand's custom-designed lounge beds that encourage multiple positions for rest and relaxation while enjoying streaming content from the in-room entertainment system with minibar items from the stylish Smeg refrigerator, complemented by a personal workstation, complete with desk lamp, Bluetooth sound stick and Poltrona Frau chair. Getting ready takes on a whole new meaning with the dressing room's rainforest shower and Red Flower Palo Santo amenities, together with a thoughtfully laid-out vanity and Poliform closet.
A multipurpose venue, The Commons Club is a hybrid of lounge bar, laid-back study and restaurant with the vibe of a private members club that guests can enjoy at the nightly social hours. The hotel will also debut 4 additional dining venues in the next 3 months – Miss Ricky's, Two Zero Three and The Rooftop Bar.
For business travellers and event planners, Virgin Hotels Chicago offers 3 flexible meeting spaces. With capacity for 108 guests, The Manor is the largest, while The Sandbox is perfect for meetings or socializing among peers and the oak table in the Founder's Room makes for an elegant conversation piece over dinner.
Following Chicago, Virgin Hotels will expand in the USA with properties under development in New York and Nashville with a target of 20 locations by 2025. Signature amenities for the brand will include complimentary Wi-Fi with no bandwidth restrictions, street-level minibar pricing, no hidden fees at check-out, an app that controls the room environment and in-room amenities catered to female business travelers.

By HCR Staff | Nov. 8, 2019
The Oakland Raiders notched an impressive short week home win against the Los Angeles Chargers to move to 5-4 on the season. Here's what we saw:
Raiders saw a return on their money invested in the offensive line. Raiders head coach Jon Gruden spent a high draft pick and a lot of money on high-priced veterans to create one of the best offensive lines in the league, and in their winning drive last night, the line performed up to their salaries. Right tackle Trent Brown neutralized Chargers star defensive end Joey Bosa for most of the night, and Raiders quarterback Derek Carr never had to see any pressure directly into his face from the middle of the line. Carr was flawless on the winning drive, and much of the credit goes to the line.
New Chargers offensive coordinator Shane Steichen did not perform well on the Chargers last possession. Down 26-24, the Chargers received the ball with just over a minute left to go in the game, and they also possessed all three of their timeouts. Generally speaking, this is plenty of time for a veteran QB such as Philip Rivers to move into field goal position. However, new OC Shane Steichen–if he was making the play calls–did not perform well. The early play calls in the series were far too ambitious given that the Chargers were playing with two backup offensive tackles. Rivers, unfortunately for the Chargers, saw tremendous pressure on each drop back. We felt a number of potentially big run plays were there, particularly since the Raiders were playing man and dropping deep into coverage on the back end. And with three timeouts left, the Chargers could have run the ball and stopped the clock. It's not often that a team has a chance to win the game on the final drive, but leave all three timeouts in their back pocket.
This Raiders team will be dangerous in 2020. Outside of the offensive line, most of this Raiders team is young and relatively inexperienced. But in 2020, if the Raiders can add a few more pieces on defense, this team will be a force in the division. It's very clear that head coach Jon Gruden is making good progress cultivating an identity for his team, and now the players are beginning to execute to that identity.

Ethereum (ETH)
|Zug, Switzerland
|Key People
|Vitalik Buterin, creator; Joseph Lubin, co-creator; Gavin Wood, programmer; Patrick Storchenegger, Legal Advisor
|Ethereum platform, Ether digital token
|Ethereum's official blog
Ethereum, or Ether (ETH), is both a cryptocurrency and a decentralized application platform (dApp).[1]
The white paper for Ethereum was created by Vitalik Buterin, a Canadian programmer and co-founder of Bitcoin Magazine, in 2013.[2][3][4] After its release, additional developers signed on to the project, including Gavin Wood. Together, they and other founders launched a crowdfunding campaign in July of 2014 in which investors purchased Ethereum digital tokens (Ether) to serve as shares in Ethereum. They raised $18 million from this campaign.[5]
Ethereum runs on a peer-to-peer network of computers. This network constantly runs applications designed to allow nodes, or individual computers in the network, to contribute to the network's total processing power by mining Ether, the cryptocurrency. While these computer programs can take many different forms, the network is designed to carry out rules that mechanically execute when certain conditions are met, like a contract that is automatically executed by a computer; these are called smart contracts. Ethereum also has its own distributed ledger, which is based on bitcoin's blockchain architecture, and uses cryptography to store, execute, and protect these contracts.[6]
Ethereum is also a Turing complete programming language, used to help developers and publishers build and publish dApps.[7]
The platform launched Frontier, the network's first live release, a year later, in July of 2015.[8] It was described by Ethereum's creators as "first in a series of releases that punctuate the roadmap for the development of Ethereum."[9]
Mainstream support for Ethereum
Support for Ethereum has been strong. Forbes called the Ethereum network "great for innovation."[10] A collection of Fortune 500 companies known as the Enterprise Ethereum Alliance have pledged to help each other develop the Ethereum platform and further "smart contract" technology. There are more than 180 member companies from more than 45 countries.[11] At one time the group included the National Bank of Canada, Cisco, American Family Insurance, CME Group, Toyota Research Institute, Mastercard, and Microsoft.[12][13] By December 2019, of these only Microsoft remained as a member.[14]
Ethereum "Whales"
In May 2019, a study by blockchain research firm Chainalysis found that one-third of the total circulating supply of Ether was held by just 376 people worldwide. These Ethereum whales were found to have infrequent trading behavior. Kim Grauer, a senior economist at Chainalysis, said in an interview with Bloomberg that the majority of these whales are not traders; "they're mostly holding." The study also found that, as with bitcoin, there is a small but statistically significant effect on the volatility of the price of Ether when these whales move their Ether from a wallet to an exchange, as these transactions tend to have large volume.[15]
Releases, Forks and Upgrades
Like bitcoin, Ethereum has undergone a number of updates through software releases which supersede earlier versions, thus creating hard forks in the Ethereum blockchain.
Frontier was the first public software release, allowing users to mine Ether as well as to upload contracts. It was launched on July 31, 2015.[16]
Homestead was launched on March 14, 2016.[17]
Metropolis is the name for a series of software releases that upgrade the Ethereum protocol. The first phase was called Byzantium, followed by the simultaneously launched Constantinople and St. Petersburg releases. The final release under the Metropolis upgrades is called Istanbul.
Byzantium was introduced on October 16, 2017. Byzantium included nine Ethereum improvement proposals (EIPs), including one that reduced the mining reward from five Ether to three Ether.
Constantinople and St. Petersburg
In October 2018, Ethereum announced the system-wide upgrade "Constantinople." The upgrade includes the integration of five separate "Ethereum improvement proposals" (EIPs), which are proposals for upgrades to the Ethereum protocol drafted by members of the Ethereum community. This upgrade took the form of a "hard fork," though it will not lead to a separate cryptocurrency, like the fork that created Ethereum Classic.[18] Originally planned for November, Ethereum core developers agreed on October 19 to delay Constantinople until January 2019.[19]
Constantinople included the integration of the following EIPs:[20]
EIP 145: The integration of "bitwise shifting," a type of information processing designed to improve upon Ethereum's existing information processing methods (authored by Ethereum developers Alex Beregszaszi and Pawel Bylica).
EIP 1052: A technical upgrade designed to improve large-scale code execution on the Ethereum platform - in layman's terms, this means that Ethereum can execute a single type of command simultaneously across the platform with a lower risk of causing a system crash (authored by Nick Johnson and Pawel Bylica).
EIP 1283: Introduces a new pricing model for smart contract developers (authored by Nick Johnson).
EIP 1014: Integrates a new method of scaling for Ethereum (authored by Vitalik Buterin).
EIP 1234: Reduces rewards for block mining from three ETH to two ETH, in order to reduce the inflation of Ether.[21] It also delays the execution of Ethereum's "difficulty bomb," or an upgrade to Ethereum's mining protocols that makes Ether harder to mine (authored by Afri Schoedon).[22]
On January 14, 2019, the Constantinople upgrade was delayed after a major security vulnerability was discovered by ChainSecurity, a smart contract firm. ChainSecurity representatives warned Ethereum developers that if EIP 1283 was implemented, loopholes in the upgrade's code would allow hackers to steal funds from users. Developers including Vitalik Buterin, Hudson Jameson, Nick Johnson, and Evan Van Ness unanimously agreed to delay the upgrade and plan a new fork date on January 18, 2019.[23] Following news of the delay, several major clients of Ethereum, including Go-Ethereum (Geth) and Parity, released software updates giving users the ability to upgrade to new versions of their products that were planned to coincide with the release of Constantinople. They gave their clients the option to downgrade to pre-upgrade versions of their Ethereum-based platforms but firmly recommended against it.[24]
Core Ethereum developers including Buterin, Hudson Jameson, Lane Rettig, Afri Schoedon, Péter Szilágyi, Martin Holste Swende, Danny Ryan, Alexey Akhuno, and others participated in a conference call on January 18th to discuss the upgrade. The developers decided to postpone activating the Constantinople hard fork until sometime between February 26th and 28th in 2019.[25]
St. Petersburg which was launched along with Constantinople disables the part of Constantinople's code that unintentionally created major security issues, as well as reducing the reward for mining on the Ethereum blockchain from 3 ETH to 2, just as the previous hard fork (Byzantium) reduced the mining reward from 5 ETH to 3. The upgrade will implement four out of the five originally-planned upgrades based on the EIPs announced in October 2018.[26]
On February 28, 2019, the upgrades went live. Core Ethereum developers told Coindesk at the time that the process of developing and implementing the upgrade had "dragged on long enough," and that developers were eager to work on other projects related to Ethereum.[27] After the update, the price of Ether saw a small increase, from $135.14 to $136.99.[28]
Istanbul, scheduled to launch at Ethereum block number 9,069,000, which is predicted to occur on Saturday, December 7, 2019 implements six EIPs, including ones to improve DOS attack resilience, enable interoperability with the Zcash network, and allow for more sophisticated smart contracts.[29]
In February 2019, Ethereum developer Afri Schoedon tweeted that he was resigning his position as an Ethereum developer due to a flood of antagonistic tweets and personal messages he received resulting from a meme he posted about two Ethereum projects - Polkadot and Serenity, the latter of which he was working on. It included the phrase, "'Polkadot delivers what Serenity ought to be.' Change my mind." Schoedon said that this tweet was not intended to denigrate other Ethereum projects, but to foster discussion about the merits of both Polkadot and Serenity. Some Twitter users said that his decision to leave was likely not simply because of the backlash caused by the tweet, but that said backlash was "just the straw that broke the camels back", as years of infighting within the Ethereum development community had worn down his enthusiasm for the project. Several prominent Ethereum developers posted an open letter to the community as a result, speaking out against the "toxic" behavior that led to Schoedon's resignation. Vitalik Buterin's signature was not on the letter; instead, he posted on Twitter that he prefers not to comment on "every new controversy du jour", and that developers should be focusing on "1.x, 2.0, layer 2, usability, security and privacy", rather than projects like those Schoedon was working on.[30][31] Twitter users began using the hashtag, "Afrigate" when discussing this development.[32]
In June 2019, an Ethereum community member named James Hancock began leading a team at Ethereum startup ETHSignals to create a "friendly" fork, which Hancock's team hoped would act as a "sister chain" to Ethereum by vetting ideas and concepts before they could be added to Ethereum's main blockchain, serving as a sort of "test network" for speeding up Ethereum's mainnet, or primary functional coding algorithms. Hancock told Coindesk that "for Ethereum to be sound money, it needs to be very conservative in making changes...for Ethereum to keep pace with competition it needs to keep making changes." He said this dichotomy creates tension, which the Alternateth "sister chain" would be designed to help alleviate.[33][34]
The SEC began in May of 2018 to look into whether Ether should fall under its authority as a security. Unlike bitcoin, which was determined to be a commodity because it held no pre-launch ICO, Ethereum's blockchain network was funded through a presale of Ether. Also, following the sale, there was no single, central enterprise being invested in, which complicates the question of how to classify Ether.[35]
In June 2018 William Hinman, the SEC's director of the division of corporation finance, stated, "Putting aside the fundraising that accompanied the creation of Ether, based on my understanding of the present state of Ether, the Ethereum network and its decentralized structure, current offers and sales of Ether are not securities transactions."[36]
In December, the CFTC released an official Request for Information (RFI) to the public. The RFI stated that its purpose was to "seek public comment and feedback in order to better inform the Commission's understanding of the technology, mechanics, and markets for virtual currencies beyond bitcoin, namely Ether and its use in the Ethereum Network." The RFI specified that information gathered through the RFI would be considered in future efforts to provide oversight and regulation to the digital asset markets. It also gave three methods members of the public could use to deliver their comments to the Commission, including a mailing address and a link to its public comments website.[37][38]
In an interview on October 10, 2019, during Yahoo Finance's All Markets Summit, CFTC Chairman Heath Tarbert said, "It is my view as chairman of the CFTC that ether is a commodity."[39] A few weeks later Tarbert told the Invest: NYC conference that his agency as well as the SEC were "thinking carefully" about whether Ethereum's planned shift to a Proof of Stake protocol will affect its status as a commodity.[40] At the time of Tarbert's comments, neither agency had formally addressed Ethereum's regulatory status.

If you're a Wes Montgomery fan, you'll want "Back on Indiana Avenue - the Carroll deCamp Recordings" for many reasons. If you're new to his music, perhaps the studio recordings on Riversde and Verve are the place to start. Nevertheless, this is music that is filled with spirit and joy as well as a numerous splendid solos. Dig it!
|Photo: Steinway & Sons
" - that album, recorded in October of 1968, just weeks after the Morell entered the scene, comes from tapes made by label owner George Klabin, then 18 years old. Now, the label presents "Evans in England", an 18-song two CD recorded when the Trio spent four weeks (basically the month of December) in residence at Ronnie Scotts in London. The musicians are in sync throughout, having not only spent the past year playing together but also having the luxury of playing the same venue for an extended period of time.
"Evans in England" is a worthy addition to the Bill Evans legacy. Now that there are three albums of material from 1968 and 69, you can really hear that the pianist was fully in creative flight during that time, that he had finally recovered from the untimely death of bassist Scott LaFaro in 1961. Eddie Gomez not only plays with great verve but is so delightfully melodic that his frequent solos unfailingly stand out. Marty Morell is the consummate accompanist, rarely "showing off" but always into the music. Absolutely recommended!
If you want to learn more about Bill Evans, blogger and author Marc Myers is the person to read (he adds much to the album liner notes). Go to www.jazzwax.com and search for the numerous postings he's done on the pianist!

Gus Dapperton @ The Trocadero
WRITTEN & PHOTOS BY: Rita Thompson
As Friday's Gus Dapperton show at the Trocadero Balcony approached, so did the treacherous nor'easter, but my friends and I were too pumped to even think about the possibility of the show getting canceled. Unfortunately, an Instagram story of Gus' proved us wrong, explaining, "due to some unforeseen circumstances and 'bitchassness,' tonights Philly show will be postponed." Disappointing for a lot of fans, but there definitely a little silver lining for me, giving me a reason to get back into the city over my spring break this Sunday for a great show.
The little hole in the wall entrance next to the main venue at the Trocadero had a super mysterious, low-key vibe, welcoming to any avant-garde fans ready to hear some underground, new wave music. A dark, skinny staircase guided fans to a bar room fitting no more than 100 people. Surely looking like the perfect place for a personal, intimate show. The crowd waited anxiously on the floor and at the bar to hear the all together blend of pop, alternative, psychedelic and more, that is Gus Dapperton.
Dapperton took the stage around 8:45 after a great opening set by a rapper sharing the same home state of New York, Elijah Bank$y. Following Bank$y's set, the 20 year old graced the stage rocking his ever so eccentric green bowl cut and a dope multi-colored sweatshirt. Dapperton started the night off with "Gum, Toe, and Sole," a song from of his 2017 Debut EP, Yellow and Such, which proved to be the perfect opener. The tune got the crowd singing and dancing along to the catchy bass riff and melodious "da da da"s. After getting the crowd excited and ready to hear more good music, Dapperton made sure to introduce his band before continuing on with the show: all his buddies, and all shockingly under 18. With his two best friends on bass and drums, and his younger sister Amadelle rocking the keys, the 4 friends had a super youthful and exciting stage presence. Gus and Amadelle's relationship really shined in their harmonies, and with loads of hype from the crowd and her front-man brother, Amadelle's vocals definitely didn't go unnoticed. Not to mention she absolutely killed it on their cover of "Without You" by Spooky Black.
The group had a great dynamic together, joking around on stage and undoubtedly sucking in every moment of their stardom. Although there were definitely some slip-ups throughout the show, I found the rawness of the keyboard falling, the bass string breaking, and the drummer inquiring with the crowd for a hair tie to be quite charming. Not to mention, through improvisation skills the bass player "Yendawg" seemed to completely mask the fact that he was missing his 'A' string for half of the set. Everyone loves a raw, uncut show, and there's nothing better than getting to see first hand, the future of music, in such an intimate environment.
Dapperton satisfied the audience for sure, performing every song a fan could wish for, from 2016 upto his most recent EP released in February, You Think You're a Comic! Everyone in the crowd was moving their feet during the hits like "I'm Just Snacking," and were amused by Dapperton's jokes and banter between songs. I was also really impressed by the bands ability to cover such a wide array of songs, with impressive renditions of Spooky Black, Neyo, and Beatles songs. All 3 covers were great, but the show-closer, "Twist and Shout" definitely took the cake. Dapperton was able to show off all his best features such as his raspy voice and his goofy dance moves with this cover. As he said a few times in the show, "I'm gonna be dancing up on stage and I hope you guys wanna match that same energy out there." Well, the crowd definitely did during that song. Gus Dapperton and his buddies/bandmates put on a seriously fun, talent-full show and I cannot wait to see them grow and popularize in the future. If you're into artists like Mac Demarco, Yellow Days, or Homeshake, I highly recommend checking out some of Gus Dapperton tunes, or even catching a show to see the makings of a future star!

My son, Athen age 5 was enrolled to Active Mind Child Development Centre (AMCDC) in Jan 2011 after spending a year in a renowned franchised kindergarten that failed to identity the cause of his dislike for writing.
His disorder was diagnosed as weakness in his fine motor skills. Intervention programme was subsequently introduced to overcome this with results seen within a short period of three months.
Today Athen is a happy 5 years old pre-schooler who longs to attend school every morning. AMCDC's emphasis on holistic education had certainly transformed my son into a disciplined and outgoing child.
My advice to parents is "brand and size need not always associate with quality". It is important to identify a preschool that has the passion to develop young children and has the rebound therapy and occupational therapy experience to introduce timely intervention for learning disorders which are common among many school going children.
I believe that Active Mind Child Development Centre has these qualities to develop your child in his /her formative years.

Ubisoft is celebrating the Holiday season by giving two digital PC games away for free as part of its Happy Playdays. Players will have the opportunity to polish their strategy with World in Conflict and experience the Golden Age of Pirates with Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag.
Ubisoft Massive released World in Conflict in September 2007, an innovative RTS game in a Cold War setting. A single-player expansion called Soviet Assault followed in 2009. The game features both a strong and captivating single-player campaign and an intense multiplayer section that supports up to 16 players. With many other features, including Voice Over IP, amazing graphics and completely destructible battlefields, World in Conflict is an intense strategy experience unlike anything you've ever seen before. Released to high critical acclaim, it has been called one of the best strategy games ever made.
Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag includes compelling characters, an extensive world, and an infinite amount of pirate activities to engage in. It begins in 1715, when pirates established a lawless Republic in the Caribbean and ruled the land and seas. These outlaws paralyzed navies, halted international trades, and plundered vast fortunes. They threatened the power structures that ruled Europe, inspired the imagination of millions, and left a legacy that still endures. From Kingston to Nassau, explore 50 unique locations where you can live the life of a pirate as Edward Kenway. Captain and customise your own ship, search for lost treasures, hunt rare animals and loot underwater shipwrecks.
World in Conflict (including the expansion Soviet Assault) will be free and downloadable for PC from December 4th to December 11th. Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag on PC will be available for free from December 11th to December 18th.
