Cathedral Peak TrailEnquire Now
41km from Bergville
-28.9462, 29.2046
+27 36 488 1888 www.cathedralpeak.co.za
Hard trail; Strenuous walk with exposed scrambling sections
Although there's a fairly clear path, you need a head for heights and a good level of fitness to summit this iconic Drakensberg peak, as the scramble up the final section is tricky and exposed. But if it sounds intimidating, help is at hand. The Cathedral Peak Hotel runs free guided hikes for its guests a couple of times a week and guides can also be arranged from Ezimvelo KZN Wildlife's Didima Resort and the campsite.
If going independently, make sure that you complete the mountain register before setting out and sign back in on your return. Start early, particularly in summer, when afternoon thunderstorms are common, and keep an eye on the weather as you go.
The path starts at the U-bend just below the hotel, but unless you are a hotel guest you have to park at the boom gate and hike an extra couple of kilometres up the tar road. After about 400 metres you'll see a path going down to the river on your right. (The turn-off is marked, but is easy to miss. If you reach the trout hatchery, you've gone too far!) Crossing the river usually involves taking off your boots and wading to pick up the rather indistinct path on the other side. The first section is quite vegetated but you soon leave the valley floor and start climbing in earnest up to the sandstone cliffs.
The path then contours to the right for a while through protea-studded veld then climbs steeply up the right-hand side of a stream. This is an excellent spot for a break, or a good turn-around point if you want a shorter walk (about three hours return). Fill up water bottles here as you're unlikely to find much water beyond this point.
The path then gradually ascends the Little Berg. Ignore the contour path going off to your left and carry on up over a small rounded hill, dipping down slightly before following the steep ridge line up the side of Orange Peel gully to the nek. It's quite a haul, particularly near the nek, but the views of the Bell and the green ridges and deeply incised valleys are wonderful, so there are plenty of excuses to rest.
At the nek, turn left and follow the contouring path for a couple of kilometres to another valley. This section, often referred to as "Bugger Gully" (or, in more polite circles, "Desperation Gully"), is hard work as it's steep, rocky and vegetated, but you're nearly at the base of the peak proper so dig deep and plough on. The route up to the summit heads off right at the top of the gully. Initially the path is a bit indistinct but is well-trodden once you're through the first band of rock. It's a fairly steep climb, with a couple of rock scrambles, a short ladder and one rather tricky traverse of a sloping rock slab that should not be attempted if it's wet.
Enjoy the views from the 3 004-metre summit and return the same way.
The Drakensberg mountain range begins its rise in the Eastern Cape, running along the length of KwaZulu-Natal's western border. It also extends in fits and starts into Mpumalanga and covers a vast area stretching into the mountain kingdom of Lesotho.
It is generally agreed that the 'Dragon mountains' got their name from their ragged, irregular silhouette that looks like a dragon's back from a distance. It was so-named by Dutch settlers. Another, albeit less popular, explanation is that early settlers were told by the locals that dragons lived in the mountains. This theory was given a bit more credence when numerous dinosaur footprints were discovered in the Eastern Free State.
The Zulu tribe has given the mountains its own, equally descriptive name – Ukhahlamba, or 'the barrier of spears'. Whatever the language and whatever the explanation, there is no argument that the Drakensberg mountains are evocative and mysterious. It is a wild and beautiful area that can change from sunny to snowy in mere moments.
In 2001 a park was established that encompasses a huge tract of the mountains. Known as the Maloti-Drakensberg Transfrontier Conservation Area, it covers 13 000km² of Lesotho and KwaZulu-Natal. It includes the Ukhahlamba Drakensberg Park, a World Heritage Site that by itself covers some 2 400km² and is 150km long.
The Ukhahlamba Drakensberg Park is a place of immense beauty and enormous spaces. It is one of the few true remaining wildernesses where hikers can walk for days without encountering other people.
It is no surprise, then, that this place is as dangerous as it is beautiful, and one must be well-prepared if tackling it on foot.
In the very north of the park is Royal Natal National Park. It is one of the jewels in the crown of Ezemvelo KZN Wildlife and the proud guardian of the world famous 'Amphitheatre'. This can be easily viewed from the road to the main camp of the park. A short walk along the river gives amazing photographic opportunities. The attractions of this park are many, from pleasant walks to fly-fishing and swimming in clear mountain streams. It is also home to the 850m-high Tugela Falls, the highest waterfall in Africa and the second highest in the world.
Other notable parks within the greater Drakensberg Park are Giant's Castle, Kamberg and Loteni Nature Reserves. Each has its own attractions, capable of keeping the tourist busy for days on end.
The Drakensberg was declared a World Heritage Site for a number of reasons. It is an area of incredible natural diversity with over 2 100 plant species, more than 200 of which are endemic to the area. It is also home to over 60 species of mammal, including the threatened oribi and herds of eland and black wildebeest. It has nearly 50 species of reptile and more than 300 bird species. The naturalist will definitely find a visit to the Drakensberg incredibly rewarding.
No less interesting is the human history of the area. A prime drawcard is the San rock art. Excellent examples can be seen in Giant's Castle. There is also a recreation of how these people prospered in the mountains until they were ruthlessly hunted out of existence by both black and white settlers.
Look out for
The Bushmen paintings are a unique art form that shrouded in mystery and deserving of at least an afternoon's attention. The fact that they are almost always to be found in remote, beautiful caves adds to their allure. And the walk there adds to the attraction.
Hiking is one of the most popular pastimes in the Drakensberg. Depending on fitness and time, hikers can choose from short but beautiful walks to multi-day hikes. On the latter one needs to be entirely self-sufficient and equipped for inclement weather - including snow - no matter what time of the year it is.
The Giants Cup Hiking Trail is the premier 'Berg hike, totalling almost 60km and usually taking five days to complete. It runs from Sani Pass to Busman's Nek in the south.
The Amphitheatre in the Royal Natal National Park is one of the first things that should be put on the 'To Do' list. You haven't really been to the Drakensberg until you've viewed it from below - and then again from the top. Here you will encounter one of the most breathtaking views in South Africa.
Fly-fishing is another excellent reason to visit the Drakensberg. KZN-Ezemvelo has a collection of very good trout waters in their reserves. Other dams and rivers are privately owned, but many are accessible to fisherman for a day fee.
The Lammergeier Hide at Giant's Castle is an amazing place from which to get incredible sightings and photographs of birds. Highlights are the bearded vulture, Verreaux's eagle, white-necked raven, lanner falcon and Cape vulture. Many smaller species can also be spotted. Booking is essential.
Sani Pass is one of South Africa's great drives. In winter the pass is often closed due to ice and snow and can be a very hazardous drive. Remember that a passport is necessary to get onto the pass and a 4x4 vehicle is required by law.

Official website of the Department of Homeland Security
MIAMI – U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers discovered over 797 pounds of cocaine hidden inside a 180-foot cargo vessel at the Miami River on Feb. 27. Based on information provided by the Miami Border Enforcement Security Task Force (BEST) and Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), officers from the port initiated a search of the vessel and identified a compartment inside a ballast tank.
The compartment was not easy to find as it had been concealed under of a layer concrete. Upon drilling the compartment CBP officers discovered the presence of the cocaine and set out to access the space through the deck floor. CBP officers recovered a total of 310 packages of contraband worth over $9 million.
"Every single day the men and women of Customs and Border Protection work diligently to protect our borders and to prevent the importation of contraband through our ports of entry. Customs and Border Protection at the Port of Miami also works very closely with our law enforcement and security partners to disrupt and ultimately close off pathways through which narcotics are introduced into the United States," said Diane Sabatino, CBP Miami Seaport Port Director.
"This is an outstanding example of the excellent work being performed by our officers in stemming the flow of illegal narcotics into the United States. I commend the effort and dedication demonstrated by our frontline officers in securing our borders," said CBP Director of Field Operations Miami Vernon Foret.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection is the unified border agency within the Department of Homeland Security charged with the management, control and protection of our nation's borders at and between the official ports of entry. CBP is charged with keeping terrorists and terrorist weapons out of the country while enforcing hundreds of U.S. laws.

- Court: Oregon Court of Appeals
- Area(s) of Law: Tort Law
- Date Filed: 04-26-2017
- Case #: A154902
- Judge(s)/Court Below: Flynn, J. for the Court; Duncan, P.J.; & Lagesen, J.
On remand from the Supreme Court for reconsideration in light of the Court's opinion in Horton v. OHSU 359 Or 168, 376 P3d 998 (2016), which overruled Smothers v. Gresham Transfer, Inc., 332 Or 83, 23 P3d 333 (2001), on which the earlier the Court of Appeals decision relied. On remand, Plaintiff argued that the limitation in ORS 30.905 (2008) violated Article I, section 10, and Article I, section 17, of the Oregon Constitution. Defendant argued that plaintiff's claim was barred by the products liability statute of ultimate repose, ORS 30.905(1) (2008). The statute of ultimate repose for products liability claims, ORS 30.905(3)(b) (2008) does not violate the remedy clause of Article I, Section 10 or the jury clause of Article I, Section 17, because "[i]t is a permissible constitutional legislative function to balance the possibility of outlawing legitimate claims against the public need that at some definite time there be an end to potential litigation." Sealey v. Hicks, 309 Or 387, 396, 788 P2d 435 (1990). In Horton the Supreme Court held "Smothers clearly erred in holding that the remedy clause locks courts and the legislature into a static conception of the common law as it existed in 1857" Citing Horton, the Court of Appeals described Article I, section 17 as a provision that "guarantees the right to a trial by a jury (as opposed to a trial by a judge) in civil actions for which the common law provided a jury trial when the Oregon constitution was adopted in 1857 and in cases of like nature." The Court held Horton foreclosed both of Plaintiff's constitutional challenges. Affirmed on appeal; cross appeal dismissed as moot.

Roval were the first company to offer a factory built wheel solution, this was way back in the ?70s so you can be forgiven for not knowing! By working with Roval, Specialized have analysed the drawbacks of other wheel types and eliminated any compromises within them.
Their new flagship wheel set is the Rapide Star. This uses the new Starhub design and has a 32mm deep carbon rim. This wheel design has the lowest drag and highest drive efficiency of any design based on tests performed by the MIT.
The hub design gives the wheel a greatly reduced frontal area and as a result reduces the drag from spokes that affects other wheels. This gives a lower drag than the eponymous Specialized tri-spoke and handles extremely well in cross winds. The penalty for this aside from an unusual looking wheel is the weight.
At 1750g per pair they are certainly not the lightest wheels and we all know that rotating weight is a big enemy. Specialized have build bikes light enough to now concentrate on putting weight in areas where it has a benefit and they feel that these wheels are one of them.

My daughters sim works o.k 2-3 bars of coverage.
My 2 recent sims I bought never hardly work. Always says no service.
Im going to have to move to some other sim now, what a waste of my time signing over.
Our phones are new units. So its not the phone sets. Its purely a ID mobile coverage issue.
My post code area is WS10 0DL. Service checkers say its very good. What a lie.
Please someone confirm is there anything I can do to imporive this, or must I move providers again. Thanks
R Bevin
Best answer by Ryan
This is a strange issue if your daughter gets 2-3 bars whilst in the same area. Are you able to try your SIM card in her phone to see if you receive the same level of service? This could show that the phone you have currently is a cause of the lower signal.

Can you rob banks or trains in the Red Dead Online game? Red Dead Online Guide and Tips
Wild West is often associated with chases or bank and trains robberies. In Red Dead Redemption 2 you had the opportunity to take part in many spectacular missions. Is the Online mode as exciting as its offline counterpart?
Can you rob banks or trains in Red Dead Online?
The short answer is -not at the moment, but that can change in the near future. For now, the game has 8 story missions with a planned course. You can do stranger mission, hunt or take part in challenges in free roam mode but you can't rob a bank or hijack a train.
Note that the game is still in beta version and many activities can be added in the future, like poker or bank robberies. Red Dead Online is a perfect game for implementing robberies similar to those from GTA Online, where you plan your actions and make necessary arrangements.

Court Halts Deportation of Palestinian Couple
(CN) – The government lacks strong evidence that a Palestinian couple got married in Israel before tying the knot in the United States, the 6th Circuit ruled, halting the couple's deportation.
A three-judge panel in Cincinnati reversed a removal order against Nabil and Sawsan Hassan, who insisted that their marriage was not finalized until their April 1995 wedding at a mosque in Michigan two weeks after they entered the United States.
Nabil had been granted a visa as the unmarried child of a legal permanent resident, his mother. Sawsan was only eligible for legal status as Nabil's wife.
Government officials said the couple was already married in Israel before entering the United States. An immigration officer who investigated their case said the Israeli Ministry of the Interior had an official record of the Hassans' marriage.
Finding the government's claims credible, the immigration judge ordered the Hassans removed. The Board of Immigration Appeals affirmed.
On appeal, the Hassans argued that the immigration judge was biased by her previous role as chief counsel for the Department of Homeland Security.
They also insisted that their marriage was never finalized in Israel, as Muslim marriages involve four steps. In the third step, called Kateb al Ketab, future spouses draft and sign a marriage contract, copies of which are given to the father of one of the families, and filed with the Sharia court and the civil records department.
The Hassans said the government assumed they were married based on this third step, though they were not officially wed until the ceremony in Michigan.
The federal appeals court agreed that the government failed to adequately rebut testimony about Muslim marriage customs.
"[T]he government did not offer clear and convincing evidence that petitioners had completed the steps required for a Muslim marriage under Sharia law before entering the United States," Judge Cornelia Kennedy wrote.
The court also rejected the government's claim that Nabil is removable because he falsely represented himself as a U.S. citizen on a loan application.
Turning to the judicial bias claim, the panel said the immigration judge's former role as a government immigration attorney "does not, in itself, amount to a procedural defect."
The court upheld dismissal of the recusal claim, but reversed on the removability findings. It sent the case back to the immigration board, "so that it may quash the removal order and terminate the removal proceedings against petitioners."

The key to the "Mission: Impossible" franchise is Tom Cruise, whose Ethan Hunt globetrot does the most audacious stunts. The nature of the plot is what makes him jump from a helicopter, cling onto the edge of a moving train, plane, or even the Burj Khalifa, or speed a BMW bike through the streets of Paris city. It is to Ethan Hunt what "License to Kill" is to James Bond – a launch pad for all the action.
Tom Cruise's love affair for the City of Lights is evident in his last film, "Mission: Impossible – Fallout". "Mission: Impossible is about immersing people into these places and into this world while celebrating the geography of the environments we are in," Tom Cruise said at the film's premiere. He even termed "Mission: Impossible – Fallout" a "love letter" to Paris.
Of course, the film was premiered in Paris. What's more, it is part of a list of iconic films shot in Paris city. Who could forget Jean Seberg's Patricia selling "The New York Herald Tribune" in Jean Luc Godard's "Breathless"? As for Godard, even Christopher McQuarrie's main canvas or backdrop is Paris.
There is also a strange similarity and a stark difference to how Godard and McQuarrie operated. The former director worked without an official script; instead, his characters jump from place to the other giving the audience a great view of Paris boulevards. The one featuring Patricia is set in the Champs Élysées; oddly enough, the makers of "Breathless" did not have any permission to shoot.
An equally iconic scene comes in "Mission: Impossible – Fallout", when Hunt does a spectacular bike stunt around the Arc de Triomphe, and beyond. "For this movie, and especially the Paris sequence, I didn't write the script until I knew where I was going to shoot the movie," said Christopher McQuarrie. "I made a rough outline and said we were going to let the environment determine the action."
That is where the similarities end. Of course, it is the combination of the cobblestoned-filled setting and Ethan Hunt's BMW machinery, which makes it an attractive sequence. If the world has a new level of appreciation for Paris, then the city itself deserves half the credit. It is no secret that the makers behind the film operated with permissions.
When someone asked why not film the Kashmir sequence in India itself, instead of New Zealand, Cruise pointed to the lack of permission. Apparently, that is why the Mumbai portions in "Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol" was set in Vancouver and Dubai. It would be unimaginable to see Mumbai's traffic stall to make way for Ethan Hunt speeding a bike through there. However, watching him do the same through the Paris streets is some kind of magic.
If you were a fan of Ethan Hunt, then you would want to follow in the 'footsteps' of the IMF agent, his associates, and the entourage of spies during Paris tours. Besides the most iconic place in this list – the arch commissioned by Napoleon – you can also get to the below places for that feel you always craved for.
Le Grand Palais
This massive building was constructed as a part of the 1900 Universal Exposition in Beaux-Arts architectural style. Its ornate roof is where Ethan Hunt landed, after jumping off a plane in his High Altitude Low Opening (HALO) parachute jump stunt.
This palatial building faces the Square or Place du Palais-Royal. Its gardens are one of the chilling places to explore during Paris walking tours, of course. It is also the same place, where Hunt meets with Ilsa Faust (Rebecca Ferguson).
Esplanade du Trocadéro
If you want a panoramic view of the Eiffel Tower during your trip to the nation's capital, then the 'Troca' balcony is one of the best vantage points for that. It resides on the River Seine's other side and makes for a wonderful place for August Walker (Henry Cavill) to meet with the CIA big shot, Erika Sloane (Angela Bassett).
Canal Saint-Martin
This is one of the capital city's tranquil places, where people come for daytime delights, photography, and lively evening outs. However, to explore the trail as a "Mission: Impossible" fan, you would need a rented boat and get to the tunnels of the canal. In the movie, Ethan Hunt pulls off an escape through these tunnels with the help of Luther Stickell (Ving Rhames) and Benji Dunn (Simon Pegg).
Rue de Valois and/or Rue des Barres
If your favorite adventure is riding, then rent your own motorbike and explore these streets to make your Paris tours memorable. Ethan Hunt speeded his BMW bike through these boulevards during the chase.
Club it Up
August Walker and Ethan Hunt meet "White Widow" (Vanessa Kirby) in a Parisian club constructed in the Grand Palais. That club is not real, but the city is home to its own share of nightclubs, such as Wanderlust or Showcase.

APPF-26 plenary session discusses political, security matters
Political and security issues were tabled in the first plenary session of the 26th Annual Meeting of the Asia-Pacific Parliamentary Forum (APPF-26) in Hanoi on January 19, where delegates from member states shared views and proposed measures and initiatives to foster a greater role of the APPF in these spheres.

Hanoi (VNA) – Political and security issues were tabled in the first plenary session of the 26th Annual Meeting of the Asia-Pacific Parliamentary Forum (APPF-26) in Hanoi on January 19, where delegates from member states shared views and proposed measures and initiatives to foster a greater role of the APPF in these spheres.
The meeting takes place at a time when the world is witnessing rapid, complex, and unpredictable changes, which can impact peace and stability in many regions, said Vice Chairwoman of the Vietnamese National Assembly Tong Thi Phong in her opening remarks.
For this reason, the first plenary session should focus discussions on the role of parliamentary diplomacy in addressing challenges to peace, security and prosperity in the region and over the world, and on combating international terrorism and trans-boundary crime, said Phong, who is chair of the meeting.
Phong shared her concern over regional conflicts and tensions that continue to pose more pressing challenges to the effort to maintain peace and development for each region.
She also mentioned the rising trend of useing destructive weapons, disputes over territories, islands and resources, alongside terrorism and trans-boundary crimes.
In addition, the Vietnamese legislator reiterated growing extreme nationalism, utilitarianism and protectionism and challenges brought by the fourth industrial revolution.
"These issues require solutions at the national, regional and global level. They also require a multi-tier cooperation approach, including our active participation, as parliamentarians, as policy makers, and as legislators of nations following a quarter of a decade of development," she stressed.
Phong called on the APPF parliaments to give active support to the historic nuclear weapon test ban, signed in September 2017, so it can soon be ratified.
"We should urge our Governments to promote more effective cooperation to respond to both traditional and non-traditional challenges, particularly non-proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, combat terrorism, trans-boundary crime, ensure water, food, and energy security, promote maritime safety and security, and cyber security,' she added.
The Vice Chairwoman also urged the Asia-Pacific to take the lead in maintaining peace and stability, promoting dialogues, cooperation, confidence building, and respecting international law and common standards and norms.
"Parliamentary diplomacy, particularly APPF activities, play an indispensable role in promoting cooperation, building legislative frameworks, deciding on and monitoring the implementation of Governments' international commitments,' Phong stressed.
The first session discussed the promotion of parliamentary diplomacy for peace, security and prosperity in the region and the world, along with the fight against international terrorism and trans-border crime.
Delegates stressed the importance of equality for common development, and mutual support to address security issues and to implement the Paris agreement on climate change.
They pointed to risks posed by increasing trade protectionism and called on support and cooperation among the APPF members for trade liberalisation. Parliamentary diplomacy to end human rights violation and the settlement of the Korean Peninsula were also among the deliberated topics.
Lasting until January 21, the APPF-26 features four plenary sessions on the topics of politics-security, economics-trade, regional cooperation in Asia-Pacific, and the future of APPF.
Founded in Tokyo, Japan in 1993, the APPF now gathers 27 members, namely Australia, Cambodia, Canada, China, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Fiji, Indonesia, Japan, Laos, Malaysia, the Marshall Islands, Mexico, Micronesia, Mongolia, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Peru, the Philippines, the Republic of Korea, Russia, Singapore, Thailand, the US and Vietnam.
It is a mechanism that enables parliamentarians to discuss issues of common concern, and to deepen their understanding of the region and the interests and experience of its diverse members. The forum's proceedings address political, security, economic, social and cultural issues, thus furthering regional cooperation and building relations between and among parliamentarians from the Asia-Pacific region.-VNA

From the distinctive opening "Whooah" to the recurring funky brass riff that follows each line of lyrics, James Brown's hit song I Got You (I Feel Good) is a recipe for happiness.
The iconic track is arguably one of the most upbeat ever made, guaranteed to get your heart racing, your head shaking and maybe even your fist pumping in time to the music. It is hard to listen to the Godfather of Soul blast out this tune and feel anything but cheerful.
Yet, it appears there may be something sinister lurking behind the catchy lyrics and energetic performance – listening to this song can make you do bad things.
"In real life, music is used to manipulate people in all kinds of ways," explains Naomi Ziv, a psychologist at the College of Management Academic Studies in Rishon Le Zion, Israel. "A lot of it can be negative," she says. "Music can make people more compliant, more aggressive and even racist."
Marilyn Manson's music has been blamed for youth violence - yet this does not tally with psychological research (Credit: Alamy)
These latest findings are a stark contrast with some long-held assumptions – including the belief that angry rap and metal by artists like Eminem and Marilyn Manson could incite violent behaviour. In the immediate aftermath of the Columbine High School, for instance, there were reports that linked Manson's music to the two killers, although it later proved to be false.
Listening to extreme music may represent a healthy way of processing anger
In fact, psychologists at the University of Queensland in Australia would suggest that this music may, in fact, soothe our angrier urges. Genevieve Dingle and her colleagues deliberately antagonised people by asking them to talk about an event involving a friend or a colleague that made them angry before allowing them to listen to hardcore metal music. After listening to the music, the participants reported far more positive emotions than those who sat in silence.
"Listening to extreme music may represent a healthy way of processing anger for these listeners," said Dingle.
Ziv's research would instead suggest that "easy listening" tunes carry the most danger. In 2011, for instance, she found that music has the power to alter people's moral judgements. She asked a group of volunteers to listen to a fictional radio advert for a website that claimed to be able to create false documents so people can receive a higher pension. Half of those who listened to the advert also heard Mozart's Allegro from A Little Night Music playing in the background, while the other half had no music.
People who listened to chirpy background music tended to be more accepting of unethical, cheating behaviour
Similarly, a separate group were asked to listen to another advert describing how participants could cheat on a seminar paper for college using a website. Again, half of those who listened to the advert also heard James Brown's I Got You (I Feel Good) playing in the background. In both cases, those who listened to the advert with the background music tended to be more accepting of the unethical, cheating behaviour encouraged in the adverts. In some instances the participants even reported seeing it in a positive light.
Gently callous
Another set of studies, published in the journal Psychology of Music, pushed the participants further – by asking them to be callous to another human being.
This time Ziv and her team asked them to do them a favour after completing a grammar test while listening to music in the background. Some heard James Brown's famous hit, others were played a Spanish dance hit called Suavemente by singer Elvis Crespo and a control group heard no music at all.
While the music was still playing, the researchers asked some of the participants to call a female student who needed to take part in the study to earn credits to complete her course, and tell her she could no longer participate. The researchers simply said: "I don't feel like seeing her." Another group were asked to tell a student who had missed the past semester due to a sickness that they couldn't have the course material she had been promised after all.
The majority of those who did not listen to music refused the request, which is hardly surprising: who wants to do someone else's dirty work, especially when it is will harm another person's chances of completing their studies? Yet Ziv found that in the first test, 65% of those who had music in the background when asked for the favour agreed to do what the researchers asked. In the second test, 82% of the group asked with music agreed.
"It was quite shocking," says Ziv. "They were being asked to do something that involved hurting someone else and many of them said they would do it."
A shared musical experience may cement our allegiance to a group (Credit: Alamy)
Whole teams of people think about what music to play in shopping malls and adverts to set the right atmosphere
So what is going on when people listen to James Brown's unrelentingly upbeat track? Ziv thinks the answer lies in what happens to our personality when we are happy. "There has been work in the past that has shown when you are in a good mood, you agree more and process information less rigorously. Depressed people tend to be more analytical and are persuaded less easily.
"Christmas music is a perfect example of happy music that can make people more compliant. There are whole teams of people who think about what music to play in shopping malls and adverts to set the right atmosphere."
Certain features in the music can also play with the way our brains work. Rhythmic sounds, for example, can coordinate the behaviour and thinking of a group of people. Annett Schirmer, a neuroscientist at the University of Singapore, has found that playing a rhythm on a drum can cause brainwaves to synchronise with the beat.
Her findings may help to explain why drums play such a big role in tribal ceremonies and why armies march to the sound of a drum beat. "The rhythm entrains all individuals in a group so that their thinking and behaving becomes temporally aligned," suggests Schirmer.
It's still not clear how music might influence behaviour beyond the laboratory, though Ziv suspects the effects may be profound. "In the real world, I think it can go to extremes," she said.
By stirring up feelings of group cohesion and animosity to outsiders, football fans' chants may sometimes contribute to aggressive behaviour (Credit: Getty Images)
It is a disturbing thought. She points to football fan violence and the role that team songs can play in that, for instance. "Music can create a feeling of group cohesion and agreement," she says. "When people do things together they are more likely to agree with each other too. This leads to something called groupthink, where there can be a deterioration in moral judgement."
It may also change the way you vote, she things. "Music is used in politics all the time to create enthusiasm for ideas and to cultivate agreement."
Jason McCoy, a musicologist at the Dallas Baptist University in Texas, agrees it's plausible, suggesting that music helps to "normalise the narrative" of otherwise immoral messages. He points to other examples in history like where the Nazis broadcast swing music on the radio to get more youngsters to tune into the propaganda messages that accompanied it. McCoy's own work has examined the role that music may have played in making the messages of hate broadcast on the radio during the Rwandan genocide of 1994 seem more acceptable.
Ziv is currently conducting research on how patriotic music and national anthems can increase racist attitudes and antagonism towards others. She is finding that listening to songs that praise the bravery of Israeli soldiers caused Israeli participants to become more hostile towards non-Israelis and Palestinians, for instance.
Clearly music is just one of many factors subtly influencing our behaviour. But they are worth considering the next time your favourite tune hits the radio. To misquote James Brown's famous song: Just because you feel good, doesn't mean that you can do no wrong.

Town hall problems with rehousing Son Banya families
The first 45 families to be evicted from the Son Banya shanty town have to leave before the initial phase of demolition that will commence on 17 April. Some of these families need somewhere to rent, and Palma town hall is experiencing difficulties in finding accommodation. The councillor for welfare and social rights, Mercè Borràs, is therefore calling for "solidarity" and for collaboration from the owners of some 16,000 empty properties in the city.
Sixteen of the families have a right to municipal assistance on account of their lack of resources; nine have in fact been assigned to publicly owned properties. As for the remaining seven, there is no more availability of these properties and it is proving impossible to rent from the private sector. "It's not a price problem, as the town hall will give help of up to 1,000 euros per months," says Joan Antoni Salas, the director-general for welfare and social rights. "We knew that it would be difficult, but we are finding that it is impossible."
Borràs explains that families leaving Son Banya have municipal and professional support. If someone wishes to rent a property to one of these families, the department will explain the programme for housing and the conditions of rental agreement. Salas adds that rent payments will be guaranteed for five years. "It will be town hall which directly pays the owner."
The town hall is specifically looking for three-room properties for families with children and also for one-room accommodation. The preference is that properties are not in "vulnerable" neighbourhoods, but Borràs notes that the town hall isn't placing conditions in this regard.
Of the nine publicly owned properties which have been found, three are from the government's Ibavi housing agency, four are from the municipal housing trust and the other two have been ceded to the town hall by banks. Some of them, Borràs concedes, are in vulnerable districts of the city.

The story of Nokia mobile phones is a quintessential grace to grace tale. Would sentiments and emotions help resurrect the brand?
The story of Nokia mobile phones is a quintessential grace to grace to extinction tale; then an ultimately vain attempt to recreate the DNA and resurrect the brand; before this latest attempt to force life into a worn-out corpse.
Many millennials would find it hard to believe Nokia mobile phones were a fabric of everyday life when GSM was beginning to be a thing. Most met Nokia mobile phones in their dying days when they could no longer cope with the onslaught of the iPhone and Android devices.
When HMD Global announced last year of their intention to start making and selling Nokia mobile phones this year, the strategy was blatantly obvious: use an iconic name and brand to make money.
Of course, HMD Global never explicitly said that. The pitch from them was along the lines of satisfying our abhorrence of allowing iconic things to become extinct. In other words, they were preserving an important part of the world's history.
A brief look at Nokia's history
The prospects of the new iteration of Nokia mobile phones cannot be understood without a look at what came before. In brief, once upon a time, Nokia was the undisputed king of mobile phones.
It wasn't always like that for the company based in Finland though. The momentous moment (1998) as the premier manufacturer of mobile phones came six years after they launched their first mobile phone, Nokia 1101, in 1992.
Nokia held that position for 14 years before Samsung with their Android powered Smartphones and Apple with the iPhone overtook Nokia and never looked back.
At a point inside those 14 years, Nokia mobile phones were so dominant that 50% of the world's mobile phone subscribers used a Nokia handset. Nobody could have predicted the spectacular fall of Nokia at that point in 2005. But the iPhone happened in 2007. Followed shortly by Android devices.
Nokia failed to recognize the threat posed by these two forward-looking upstarts. By the time they tried to respond, it was too late.
The final nail in the Nokia coffin were a series of bad business decisions chiefly by Microsoft who bought the company in 2013. Then they (Microsoft) finally admitting defeat last year after trying unsuccessfully to push the windows mobile operating system through the Nokia brand.
Enter HMD Global and Foxcomm
Somehow, the new Nokia mobile phones are most closely linked with HMD Global. Perhaps that is because, the company, founded last year, is made up largely of former Nokia executives. And besides, the company is based in Finland, Nokia's ancestral home.
However, Foxcomm actually had more to do with the new Nokia than HMD as far as finances are concerned. Foxcomm, fronted by FIH Mobile, guaranteed and paid the $350 million required to get the license to use the Nokia name from Microsoft.
While HMD got the right to use the Nokia name on handsets and other devices, Foxcomm got permission to use a manufacturing plant in Vietnam to produce smartphones.
HMD Global's strategy for success
The reasons why Nokia failed are old and over rehashed. The issue is how Nokia is going to succeed in the future after Microsoft with their huge cash reserve couldn't do it.
HMD is not going to compete with the Samsungs and the iPhones. At least for now. They do not even intend to compete with mid-range OEMs. They are going for the feature phones segment of the market.
That makes sense on a number of levels. The smartphone business is plateauing fast. And coupled with the competition of already established players, it would be difficult to succeed in the mid or high-end segment of the market.
The feature phones niche however witnessed of growth of about 30% especially in regions like Africa. While there is a growing middle class in these regions, most people still prefer to buy the cheaper feature phones.
Nokia intends to exploit this by making the next generation of Nokia phones cheap. They are to be sold at about $51.
Apart from the price, HMD decided to use an operating system 90% of the world is comfortable with, the Android OS.
Riding the wave of nostalgia to success
The biggest news of HMD's attempt to bring back the Nokia phone was the return of the old-time classic, the Nokia 3310.
The 3310 was first launched in 2000. The simple phone for some curious reasons turned out to be the company's all-time best-selling phone. It sold over 125 million units by the time production was halted.
But HMD did not just wheeled out old 3310s from a long forgotten warehouse, dusted them and pushed them out to market shelves. A few modifications were done to it.
The screen, though still small at 2.4 inches, is now colorful and contains a few icons. The phone now comes with an Opera Web browser, and a back camera. Making a comeback in the new phone is the classic Snake game, the Nokia tone and the classic structure. Though it is now a bit lighter.
Uncertain future
It is unlikely people who used to use and love Nokia would dump their current phones and switch to the new Nokia. HMD knows that. They hoped though that people would join the bandwagon by getting the phones as a second phone or buy it for a friend or family as a gift.
The ridiculous battery life of 31 days standby time is a good selling point. At least that is something poor communities hit by crippling power shortages would find very useful.
The big question is whether the phone would make it this time around. The only way to make that judgment would be the reception from the public. The execs at HMD are not making any big optimistic pronouncements. Everything they do related to the phone is low-keyed.
Even the launch of the phone at this year's World Mobile Congress was without fanfare. It took less than 20 minutes. They are hoping though that the survival of the phone would not be that brief.
The lesson from this is simple: sentiments and love for old and trusted brands can be a good marketing strategy for firms. It doesn't matter if the company is old or new, they can always pull at the heartstrings of consumers to get them to open their wallets happily.

Boone, 44, will replace Joe Girardi, who has managed the team since 2008 and led them to their most recent championship in 2009. General Manager Brian Cashman recommended Boone as manager to Hal Steinbrenner, the team's managing general partner, according to The New York Times.
Boone, who has no managerial or coaching experience, has been working as a baseball television analyst for ESPN since 2010. After interviewing for the job earlier this month, Boone said, "I would say in a way I've been preparing for this job for the last 44 years." He played 12 seasons in the majors and retired eight years ago, but his career highlight came in 2003, when he hit a now legendary walk-off home run to beat the Boston Red Sox and bring the Yankees to the World Series.

Siskiyou County Agriculture Commissioner Jim Smith presented the county's 2016 Crop and Livestock Report to the Siskiyou County Board of Supervisors last week.
Siskiyou County Agriculture Commissioner Jim Smith presented the county's 2016 Crop and Livestock Report to the Siskiyou County Board of Supervisors last week. The report represents estimated acreage, yield and gross value of ag products in the county.
In the report's introductory letter, Smith summarizes, "The gross agricultural receipts for 2016 totaled $318,304,583. This represents a decrease of $28,424,642 from the 2015 growing season. This decrease is attributable to lower livestock prices, extremely low field crop prices and reductions in nursery production acres and prices.
"In-season rains damaged much of our hay crop, which reduced returns on an already depressed value commodity. Drought impacts were again significant in some areas, but not uniform across the county. Irrigated and non-irrigated pasture as well as range lands experienced the most significant impacts from the drought."
The total value of the county's field crops for 2016 was $87,500,000, which, Smith noted, is a decrease from the previous year because a lot of hay was rained on in 2016. As prices have gone up a bit though, the county should see a better year for field crops ahead, he predicted.
Alfalfa brings in the most money to the county of all its field crops: $37,908,000 in 2016. Other hay accounts for the next highest total, with $14,024,400.
Organic crop production has continued to increase and organic potatoes, in particular, have become more popular. The value of organic potatoes was also the highest of the county's organic crops, bringing in $3,355,000.
Total value from livestock production was $23,323,240. "Cowboys are able to maintain in adversity or plenty," Smith stated, so livestock production remains fairly constant year after year. The top producers in the livestock category are cows, steers and heifers, with the two latter making up $14,437,500 of the livestock total. The county's livestock also includes apiary products, buffalo, eggs, fryers, goats, hens, hogs, horses, llamas, mules, pigs and rabbits.
Nursery crops have gone down due to drought down south, as well as plant diseases and fumigation issues, Smith detailed.
"There have been some shifts in production of strawberry plants. Water shortages have impacted returns that we're getting and we have some restricted markets," Smith described. Still, strawberry nursery plants have remained the top crop in the county, bringing in $130,496,250 in 2016.
Timber receipts dropped from $53,336,097 in 2015 to $37,491,337. Smith said he did not know a definitive reason for the drop, but did note the numerous restrictions on timber harvesting. The report shows that 2015 was the highest producing year for timber, with 249,143 million board feet, and the $53,336,097 was the highest total of timber receipts for the years 2011-2016. Last year's timber receipts were the second highest in that same span, with a second-highest production of 199,787 million board feet.
Nurseries are the top commodity in the county, followed by field crops, then livestock, then vegetables.
The board thanked Smith for the annual report. Board chair Michael Kobseff added that, as Siskiyou County's largest industry is agriculture, he believes the ag report is a useful resource.

For me since I do not see much value on them, I do not consider them to be worth more than the component cost. For top of the line smartphones, the camera module usually cost less than $20, and with many tablets having considerably worst cameras, we can assume the cost to be less than $10 in most cases.
I voted for option 1, $0. I personally do not take pictures with any of our tablets, they are too hefty and I always have my phone with me. It is usually harder to offload pictures/videos from tablets as well.
Rear cameras on tablets are pretty worthless to me. I'd rather see a really nice front facing camera for video chats. Any other camera on a tablet I don't care about. I'd rather pay a little less for a tablet without one, or see the money put towards better improvements on the tablet.
I believe a rear camera is needed on smaller tablets, but should not be required on larger tablets.
I don't value rear cameras on tablets. I hate when Google Opinion Rewards makes me use my tablet rear camera to snap photos of receipts.
Although I do understand if people needs a competent camera on their tablet to scan documents. I lose a little bit of respect for people who record moments with their tablets, though.
I would prefer better Front-facing camera those video chats and interviews.
I was going to ask the same thing. I've never had a request for a receipt before.
It asks me to take a photo of my receipt every time I go into a major
retailer like Target, Office Depot, Walmart. etc. Poll gives me 30 cents.
On Fri, Sep 30, 2016 at 10:49 AM jimlloyd40 <[email protected]>
I get those surveys for those stores all the time, but I've never had to provide a receipt. My guess is that google is pilot testing it with some users as a way to guard against people taking surveys when they never actually went to the store. Already they use a combination of location data and having you choose the right store from a list of random stores to verify, but my guess is that it would be pretty easy to game the system.
I never use the rear camera on my iPad Air 2. It is too big and bulky to use as a camera.
Rather than the rear, I'd say the front camera is worth more to me for skyping and etc. I have my phone for the daily rear camera shots
It isn't handy for much in my opinion. The tablets are too bulky, and awkward to take photos with. I have used mine as a secondary screen with my DSLR, but it was for stationary use.
Sorry to say it, but most of the market will agree with these two statements.
1. What is a 5MP camera worth to me on a tablet? Nothing.
2. What is a tablet in general worth to me? Less than nothing
The tablet market is dead. Years ago I loved them, but then phones got big enough, android got smooth enough, and cell phone processors got beefed up enough to the point where a tablet is just useless nowadays. Tablets were great when smartphones had tiny screens. Those days are long gone now.
One of the best uses for a tablet, is for media consumption.
If you would like, try this with a cheap 9-10 inch tablet. (I am still using my ancient HP touchpad that I got for $100 back in 2011, and have since overclocked the CPU and GPU and cache. I have it running a cyanogenmod based build, and use BSplayer for video, and chrome for the browser.
It makes for a great experience for catching up on a few TV shows while in bed, while also using the web browser. The hover video player can simply be moved to a corner of the screen or move anywhere else as needed.
Furthermore, since I sync most of my media files with my NAS, and BS player has support for network shares, I am able to easily stream my videos (pretty much any format), to the tablet while I surf the web. This makes everything extremely convenient for use around the house.
Wanted to add, that the tablet has a front facing camera that since I got the tablet, probably had a combined total use of less than 20 seconds.
Overall, if you are not using a tablet for really demanding stuff, even a low end one can offer a decent experience, as long as the display is good.
For such a use case, a smartphone is not a very good device, since a the display is too small, and a ~10 inch display on a smartphone will not be very pocket friendly.
It is one of the worst names possible since whatever acronym they think they are going for, is likely far less popular than than the common use for BS. BSPlayer FREE - Android Apps on Google Play
Overall, people put up with the horrible name because no one else seems to be doing a good video player that offers a windowed mode as well as full support for various network share types, along with good hardware acceleration support.
It's absolutely worthless to me. 5MP is pretty low res, and a tablet is inconvenient for taking photos, or videos.
There are few things as rediculous as someone taking pictures with a tablet.
I agree. I bring a real camera if I'm planning on taking pictures, or filming something. The phone is great for candid shots. I've never reached for the tablet.

Vivian, the only thing I am losing is my patience with your duplicitous statements. You have told me repeatedly that you are a devout Christian. Okay, LIVE that statement and follow it to its logical conclusion: Christianity is the better religion. If you don't accept that then go convert to something else.
I am amazed at how disconnected you seem to be from your professed convictions.

My spiritual life is none of your business. How I define my relationship to a higher power is also none of your business. How I reconcile my spirituality with every day life is also none of your business. And I am beginning to see just what an offensive person you are.
I will not follow your stupid logic. If you had any true faith, other than your sick and twisted approach to everything, you would see what Christian teaches.
You have no faith or spirituality and you seem to want to drag people down with you. Isn't it so difficult for you to learn to let individuals live as they wish to live? You are sickening me.
I won't be reading your posts anymore, Peter. So, don't expect any replies.

Real Change Always requires Sacrifice

In Response To: Re: Let Iraqis Exercise Free will (Peter BetBasoo)
I live on the same planet you do Peter, but I still respect your point of view, even though I don't agree with you on all the points. Let me see if I can expand on a few of the points. First of all, Christians in Iraq have suffered for their faith, but they were willing to, because their faith was sincere and genuine. If they had to choose between conversion and death, they would accept death, and many have. Now, if Assyrians were willing to bear their crosses, just as their Lord did, then any Moslem who truly desires to convert should be willing to do so, no matter what sacrifice is demanded. Didn't Christ say, "If you wish to follow me, take up your cross..." Should Moslems or anyone for that matter expect to do less?
No matter how you slice it, create any scenario you can imagine, the conversion of the Moslem world, will never happen without trauma, sacrifice and upheaval. You should ask, yourself, what planet you're living on. How could you possibly envision a peaceful conversion of the Moslem world? Do you realize what you are saying?
You said there are severe Muslim penalties for inter-faith marriages and conversion. Yes, I agree, but haven't there been severe penalties for Assyrians, living in the land which has always been their birthright, under the rule of these same people you wish to convert with an army of missionaries. And they will view it as an attack, albeit, a spiritual attack. Nothing you can imagine will arouse their anger more than that, and as our friend, Ben, has already pointed out, they will take it out on the closest Christians they can find. Do you want them to slaughter all of the Assyrians remaining in Iraq?
When the student is ready, the teacher will appear. Let's allow Iraq to recover from this latest trauma before we inflict another one upon it. Then let's see if a secular government will allow enough freedom so that some of the changes we are debating here can be implemented without violence. Give everyone a chance to at least catch their breath.

TOLERANCE and a level playing field are fine as long as it comes from within Iraq and the culture isn't subjected to proselytization from a hypocritical, morally-degenerate, foreign culture. Also, Ben makes a good point in his post, below.

"Morally degenerate" is a bit melodramatic, no?
"Let he who is without sin cast the first stone".
"Morally degenerate" people do not travel around the globe and put themselves in harms way by proselytizing and spreading the word of God.

In Response To: To Call America a Godly Nation Would Be A Mockery (StarDrifter (Asshur))
: That is not a blanket description, but any
You judge a society by the pop and consumer culture portrayed in the mass media. This is not a fair judgement.
I did not disagree with some of the statements made, I just think they were overstated.
There IS a devil working in the American society, and he is in Hollywood. Do not judge the rest of America by what you see on television and Jerry Springer. I have traveled and worked across this country and I see the basic good that is in America, but it is in a constant struggle with an evil that is determined to stamp out Christianity from America and the world.

It's My Old Arch-Enemy Hyperbole Again!

In Response To: Re: To Call America a Godly Nation Would Be A Mock (Peter BetBasoo)
Your criticism is fair. I have used overstatement, but I'm still trying to correct that fault, which apparently has been hanging on to my fingertips as they tap on my keyboard. But I still believe that America's value system has contributed, in large part, to the resentment that a good part of the world has expressed toward us. And, America has many problems of its own which it ignores as it tramples across the globe telling everyone else how to live. This society has become a society where money rules the day. A society where money talks and everything and everyone else walks. If you have money, you can commit murder and get away with it. If you have money or money behind you, you can become President and dishonor your office and disgrace the nation. If you have money you can create filthy immoral movies and television programming and music to corrupt the youth of our nation. If you have money or power or both, you can create a pipeline of drugs and pornography to enslave the minds and bodies of our nation's people and then spread all of this to the rest of the world.
Yes, I do agree with you that there is a basic goodness in America, but it has to be reclaimed, because much has been lost due to the changes that have occurred in America for the last fifty years. Change is not easy, however, when the media is dominated by a liberal pseudo-intellegensia which stifles any dissent by those who wish to return to the values that this country was founded upon.
The only thing Liberals can find to criticize these days is imperfection, because it hurts them to give credit where credit is due. We can only strive for excellence, because we will never become perfect. The Conservatives, want to constantly pound on the Liberals, because they think they are better. They are no better or worse. They should let their example take the credit, but some of them want the credit for themselves.
You are correct in saying that America is engaged in a moral struggle within its own society today. This is where we should be spending our resources. It is far easier and less hypocritical to teach by example than to impose your values on others.
