Travel Deep - fathom Cuba Experience!

Fathom Information & Daily Programs:
There are a few expressions I started hearing almost immediately after boarding fathom�s ADONIA to Cuba. Things like �Impact Travel�, �Travel Deep�, and a personal favorite, �Tourists See, Travelers Seek�. From an early onset I know this wasn�t going to be a typical cruise. Fathom is actually a relatively new brand of Carnival Corporation. It made a big splash just over year ago when Carnival announced an entirely new concept of cruising. One that wasn�t all about eating, casinos, and laying by the pool. Instead the emphasis is on �travel with a purpose�, or �social impact travel". In the case of the Dominican Republic cruises, that means perhaps teaching a skill such as English to the locals, helping to make water filters, planting gardens, etc. The purpose is a little different for Cuba. It�s �People to People�. To be fair fathom didn�t invent the people to people concept. It�s actually required by US law for most US citizens to visit Cuba. Under this specific program for instance, you�re not permitted to spend a week in Cuba laying on the beach at a resort. In fact I didn�t see one beach in Cuba which suited me just fine. Instead your days are required to encompass plenty of time interacting with the locals, learning about the culture, and partaking in cultural activities like art, music, and yes, even drinking at local bars. I really loved that part! You can do this on your own, with organized fathom activities, or a combination of both which is what my friend and I decided upon.
Fathom is headed by a young president named Tara Russell. She is not a typical cruise line CEO and to my knowledge had no cruise line experience prior to fathom. Her passion is making a difference through impact businesses. Fathom is for profit, but with objectives that go beyond just being a profitable company. Tara hand selected her onboard team, called �Impact Guides�. Leading this group of young explorers is Katie and Colin, a husband and wife team that seemed to keep the impact concept alive and well onboard ADONIA. Katie is the Impact Supervisor and on a traditional ship you might call her the Cruise Director. The difference is ADONIA is no traditional ship. Rather than bingo, art auctions, and belly flop contests by the pool, you are more likely to find lectures on Cuban history, Cuban movies subtitled in English, and activities like Book Clubs, Visual Storytelling, and Spanish lessons. You can participate in even more unusual concepts like finding your inner superhero, discovering your spirit animal, and the story of you. You get the picture right? It�s more tree hugging and educational than cocktails by the pool, although you can do that too!
Taking you to Cuba is ADONIA. She is an interesting little ship to be sure. For one her master is female, not something you see everyday. She is operated by P&O which is a British company with lots of history, that is also owned by Carnival Corp. You might say she is on loan to fathom. ADONIA is one of eight almost identical medium sized ships that were originally ordered and operated by Renaissance Cruises. Their names were not very original, and ADONIA started out as R8. She was the 8th and final ship in the series. Renaissance went belly up and today we find ADONIA�s sister ships at Azamara, Oceania, and Princess Cruises. They are very comfortable ships carrying just over 600 passengers in very nice surroundings. The theme decor is Edwardian, and the fact they were built during the Titanic movie craze might explain why. The grand staircase in the lobby was even modeled after Titanic�s. ADONIA has British officers, a mostly Indian crew, and cruise staff (aka Impact Guides) mainly from the US, Canada, Australia, and South Africa. She is registered in Bermuda. The decor is probably not suited for warm weather Caribbean itineraries, but the size is right and I�m sure that is why she was chosen to inaugurate the fathom brand. She is showing a little wear and tear and could use a little TLC here and there, but overall she looks good and there is probably no better way to travel to Cuba in comfort and style. Fathom tried to brand the ship at minimal cost and it shows. Poster art covering the wood bulkheads in the atrium, poster art on staircases, and fathom touches here and there that honestly don't do much to enhance the atmosphere. I would have preferred they just left the original decor intact as the fathom additions just don�t fit the decor and look cheap (they are cheap in fact).
I�m sure you�re getting the idea this isn�t a typical cruise and with that in mind, here are some things you won�t find on ADONIA. The most pleasant one is the constant selling of goods and services like on most ships. The nickel and dime effect if you will. It simply doesn�t exist on ADONIA. Along with that is no casino, no art auctions, no bingo, no evening shows, and very little entertainment besides a band and Cuban movie each evening. Are you getting the picture? Think very low key. Katie the Impact Supervisor will do double duty and sing some evenings in Anderson�s Lounge, and she is actually quite good. Some other pleasant surprises are no auto gratuities at the bars, and in fact the service charge is already included in the low drink prices. Thank P&O for that! Of course you can add a tip if you like which is what we did. How about $6.95 for a basic cocktail like a Bacardi & Coke? Sure beats the almost $12 I paid for the same drink on Oceania a few months earlier. You can even buy liquor in Cuba and consume it back on the ship. They don�t confiscate your liquor at the gangway like on most ships. The Reception Desk is only open from 7am-11pm daily and there is no room service except for a continental breakfast which comes with a $5 tray charge. I thought that went against the no nickel & dime effect and frankly should be eliminated considering the prices that fathom is charging for Cuba cruises. One bottle of water in included in the cruise but you are on your own for the rest. Thankfully the tour guides provided plenty of bottled water on the tours themselves. All the tours and visa by the way are included in the price of the cruise except for a couple evening excursions. More on that later. Bath amenities are provided as is nightly turndown service, and the cabin even comes with its own kettle and tea selection. Another holdover from when the ship sailed for P&O. Onboard internet was quite good and worked well even in Cuba. I posted photos of Cuba on Facebook throughout the cruise. I opted for 250 minutes for $62.50. It seemed like the best deal and I used every minute. That is actually a little less expensive than I have experienced on most cruise lines. There is also a fathom app specifically for Cuba that you can download to your smartphone. I used it often. It was basically an electronic version of Soundings, which is the daily activity program. It had all the information provided in Soundings and then some.
Food, service, and entertainment on this cruise were definitely secondary but are worth discussing. The star of course is Cuba and that was the primary reason everyone was on this cruise. In fact many fellow passengers were first timers and the type that would never actually consider a cruise. They were not interested in the normal cruise past times, and instead were focused on immersion into Cuban culture and learning and exploring as much of Cuba as possible. For this reason the few cruise activities that were offered were lightly attended with the exception of the lectures which often had a full house. There were also very few children onboard and to my knowledge absolutely no organized children�s activities. That was quite refreshing actually! So how was the service and cuisine? It was fine, but nothing exceptional. We had kind of a funny incident with our cabin stewardess early on. The DND sign was out but seemed to go unnoticed. She knocked and we didn�t answer so then she called. In she came with a bucket of water announcing �balcony cleaning!�. I guess it was time to get moving whether we were ready or not! Later in the cruise she came in when I was getting ready for dinner. She admonished me for not using the DND sign. I just had to laugh. Why when she doesn�t respect it anyway!!? She got better as the cruise went on, but generally speaking the service overall lacked any polish or finesse. There were exceptions of course, but perhaps this is just the P&O style of doing things? Menus are much more limited than other cruise lines and a few times nothing sounded appealing. That is very unusual for me. Stay away from beef as it tends to be tough, overcooked, and flavorless. Some fish was dry and other times it was ok, but never all that flavorful. Bland would be a good word with the exception of curry. Lots of rice and dishes with curry had plenty of it. Surely this is the P&O Indian influence. The same dinner menu options in the dining room were repeated in the buffet restaurant. Another dinner option is Ocean Grill. It�s an extra tariff speciality restaurant that costs $25 per person. By far it was the best meal we had onboard, and I would highly recommend it. They also offered a bbq on deck the two afternoons at sea, and it was just ok. Burgers (well really hockey pucks on a bun), pork, etc. There was a line the first time it was offered, and no line the second time! There is nothing to eat past midnight anywhere on the ship. Remember no room service. Generally not a problem except the one night we got in late from a show in Havana. It would have been nice to have a little something to munch on. To be fair fathom doesn�t promote gourmet food. It�s all quite eatable but certainly nothing too memorable. You won�t starve that is for sure, but it probably wouldn�t hurt fathom to spend a little more effort on quality ingredients and preparation that appeals more to North Americans, the primary market for the ship. Anyway you�re not booking this cruise for the food. As I�ve mentioned before it�s truly secondary to the Cuba experience.
So what about Cuba? In a nutshell it was everything I hoped it would be and then some. I truly found it a rewarding experience beyond my imagination. I highly recommend anyone with the time and means to visit now, before Cuba is dramatically changed. There is an innocence and spirit to the Cuban people that is truly endearing. They have so little yet have so much life and love in them. It was so refreshing and we can learn so much from them. I worry that once big business arrives in Cuba that the innocence will be lost, but that is progress I suppose. I do hope that with this new found relationship between Cuba and America, that new opportunities and a better standard of living will prevail. For now, the Cuban people I encountered really love Americans and will welcome you with open arms. They are beyond excited about this new relationship with the US and are excited for you to visit their beautiful country. They are very proud of Cuba and with good reason. There is a lot to love! A couple general things about Cuba and the fathom operation. First you will sign an affidavit prior to leaving the US. Fathom supplies this and they can walk you through it. Basically you have three options. Cuba on your own, Cuba by organized fathom tours, or a combination of both. We did both. Read the affidavit as there are requirements under the guidelines of the �people to people� program. As I mentioned earlier hanging out at a beach all day is not an option. Keep in mind there are two currencies in Cuba. The CUC and CUP. The CUC is an exchange of almost one to one with the US dollar, and is the currency that tourists use. The CUP is the local currency and generally you will not use it on this cruise. A good way to tell the difference is that the CUC has historical monuments on the bills, and the CUP has historical people on the bills. As part of the �people to people� program you are not supposed to use US dollars in Cuba. This being said, they can be used in small amounts for things like tips. It�s much more difficult for a Cuban person to exchange a larger US bill for their local currency, so generally they don�t want them. There is a currency exchange set up in each of the port terminals, but keep in mind there is a stiff 10% exchange fee. No way to avoid that though. At least when changing your CUC�s back to US dollars there is no fee. Cuba is a tipping culture and I would recommend bringing lots of $1 bills with you. You pretty much tip for everything and it�s very, very appreciated. Little things also mean a lot. Pens, paper, toilet paper, just some everyday things you take for granted will mean a lot to the Cuban people. I even purchased some pins onboard with the Cuban & American flags together, and gave some out while in Cuba. Just my little gesture to promote how happy I was about this new relationship between our two countries. One thing that surprised me was how widely English was spoken. I joked that more Cubans speak English than South Floridians! Often times it was even with no dialect. Education is free in Cuba, so many learn English. I think it�s going to come in handy as the future unfolds.
We stopped in three Cuban ports on this cruise. The first was Havana. It�s a beautiful and eventful sail-in so be sure not to miss it. This is the only port where you literally dock in the heart of the city. Once you exit the terminal you are right in Old Havana, a beautiful and historic walking district of the city. The way fathom organizes its tour groups is by name. Our was �Impact� and this would be our group for the entire cruise. The nice thing is that the night before you are provided an overview of the activity, and also an estimated departure time from the ship. You can wait in the comfort of your cabin until your group is called, then make your way to the gangway. We found every departure time to be exactly as estimated, and the fathom operation to be highly organized and well thought out. The nice thing is that the groups are rotated, so you�re not aways the first or last group to be called. It�s a very fair process. Fathom does not fill tour busses so they are very comfortable, and they have a/c which is a rarity in Cuba! The busses are from China. Leading the tours will be a guide from Havanatur, which is state owned and the largest tour company in Cuba, and an Impact Guide from fathom. Something unique to Cuba customs and immigration is infrared cameras. If they detect your body temperature is above 98.96 degrees you will be subject to a heath screening. Thankfully that didn�t happen. Also you have to go through a security screening both getting on and off the ship, so don�t forget anything. Having to back track on the ship will eat up valuable time. ADONIA overnights in Havana and the first day is a full walking tour of Havana with lunch included. Our lunch was at a private restaurant, or Paladar. This private ownership is a fairly new concept in Cuba. Most are still state owned. This first day in Havana is actually the most rigorous of the entire cruise. Prepare accordingly and remember it's really hot and almost nowhere has air conditioning. We enjoyed dinner on our own in Havana at a state owned restaurant (very nice and very reasonable) then opted for an evening excursion to the historic Nacional Hotel for an excellent cabaret production. Think Vegas meets Havana! Day two in Havana is a full day bus tour but we opted to sightsee on our own. We rented a 1954 Cadillac complete with driver and guide for around 60 CUC's. They were awesome and it was a fantastic way to do things at our own pace, and also see some sights of Havana which we probably would not have seen otherwise.
Our second stop was Cienfuegos. This port is on the southern coast of Cuba, about a three hour drive from Havana. It took us a full day to sail there as we had to sail around the western coast of the island. Cienfuegos has a very different feel than Havana. The architecture is more akin to what you might find in Saint Petersburg Russia compared to the Spanish Colonial style in Havana. The feeling is more laid back as it�s a much smaller city after all. We enjoyed a tour of the city and a wonderful musical performance at the beautiful Tomas Terry theater. Cienfuegos is a relatively short port of call, and soon we were on our way to Santiago de Cuba. Sailing out of Cienfuegos you might be able to spot a relic of the Soviet influence in Cuba. An abandoned and incomplete nuclear reactor. If completed it would have powered something like 15% of the entire island. Electricity is unreliable in Cuba and very expensive. It�s one reason there is very little air conditioning. It�s also not unusual for the power to go out with no warning, only to return a minute or two later.
Our final stop was Santiago de Cuba. This is another southern port city near the eastern end of the island. Not far from Guantanamo Bay actually. The feeling again is quite different from both Havana and Cienfuegos. Here the African-French-Caribbean influence is much more apparent, and Haiti is actually closer than Havana. It�s a city filled with a lot of history and you will learn all about it during your visit there. Another musical performance was to be enjoyed along with plenty of free time to explore the city center. A visit to historic San Juan Hill is a must along with the Castillo del Morro. I really enjoyed the changing of the guard at the Santa Ifigenia Cemetery where Cuban national hero Jose Marti is buried and memorialized. It�s quite interesting and again you can see the Soviet era influence even in the style of the changing of the guard.
So that is a brief overview of my Cuba experience. Rather than go into anymore detail about Cuba itself, I invite you to browse the photos in my gallery. I�ve included the links at the top of this review. Hopefully they provide even more insight and perspective into this fabulous place known as Cuba. I truly hope you have the opportunity to visit in the near future, and I wholeheartedly recommend fathom as a great way to experience Cuba, especially for the first time. If you have any questions please don�t hesitate to ask.
Can you now just go online and book with Fathom to Cuba, or does it require special permissions and sending in your passport etc with the state department?

Yes, booking online with fathom is just as easy and the same process as any other cruise line. No special requirements.
Like other lines, you will be required to submit passport and personal info after booking and before the cruise itself.
Two additional requirements are a visa and affidavit. Fathom will obtain the visa for you if you are a US citizen born in the US. You will pick up the visa upon check-in in Miami. The affidavit will be in electronic form and this should be completed and submitted prior to your check-in in Miami. It outlines the guidelines, requirements, and restrictions of the "people to people" Cuba program. Basically there are three options and you have to choose one. Cuba on your own, Cuba with the fathom organized tours, or a combination of both. I did a combination of both. You can change your mind and update the affidavit once onboard if desired.
Hope this helps.

Web Malware Detection and Remediation
Website Malware
Website malware, also known as web-based malware, is presently a serious threat to Internet security. This is evident based on the fact that website malware attacks lead to serious security consequences.
With the Internet playing a key role in our daily lives, there are indeed millions of web services and web applications on the web, such as social networking sites, content sharing sites, office applications, entertainment sites, and education sites. With this growing popularity, the Internet also attracts the attention of cybercriminals who use thousands of malicious URLs as distribution channels to spread malware throughout the Web.
Web malware thus infiltrates a computer every time the user visits malicious websites. After a victim gets infected with web-based malware, hackers take complete control of the victim's computer. This computer is then used by the hackers to execute different cybercrimes such as spamming, distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks, and stealing banking credentials etc.
Web-based malware can affect your website in the following ways:
Direct your visitors to other malicious sites
When visitors to your website get redirected to another website (especially a suspicious site) you can be sure that your website has been affected by a malicious redirect.
Backdoors grant cybercriminals access to your website
Backdoors are one type of malware that functions as an entry point for cybercriminals, permitting them to obtain and maintain insistent access to your website. Possessing this access to your website, cybercriminals will be able to easily modify your website's appearance, expose confidential customer data, and do several other malicious activities. The worst part is that you may not even notice a backdoor file as they could just go undetected.
Change the site's appearance
Defacements permit cybercriminals to substitute your website's content with their own message, and this mostly promotes a religious or political agenda. This attack can actually turn visitors away by preventing them from completely accessing your website and/or upsetting them with the shocking message.
Hide in advertisements
Malvertising is a web-based malware technique that spreads malware by encouraging users to click on an ad, or via a "drive-by" download, which leads to an automatic infection when a visitor visits the website. Cybercriminals can either upload their own malicious ad to an ad network responsible for distributing the ad across of websites simultaneously or either inject malicious code into an advertisement.
Flag your website with a warning and remove it from search results
Google and several other popular search engines use the blacklisting technique to constantly review websites for malware and they could also remove infected websites from search results as part of an effort to prevent users from visiting these infected websites. To protect visitors from malicious content, search engines can also place a warning on websites that get blacklisted. This warning actually informs visitors that the website is infected, and prevents them from visiting that site. This results in traffic drop and your site's visitors could even distrust your website and never return.
Insert spam content on your website
Strange comments or links suddenly getting displayed on your website or a sudden loss in traffic are all signs of search engine optimization (SEO) spam. This spam takes advantage of two methods that help websites obtain a good ranking in search results: acquiring links from outside sources and the use of relevant search terms on a web page. Cybercriminals can very easily bring about a drop in your website's search rankings by just inserting a large number of files with malicious backlinks and unconnected keywords into your website. This indeed results in a major drop in website visits.
Thus, the above-mention threats that are becoming more and more sophisticated these days emphasis on a dire need for a good website malware removal tool to carry out effective web malware detection and remediation services.

Top perfumes that are everyone's favorite
Jacques Guerlain, a French perfumer in 1889 introduced "Jicky" and that's when era of modern perfumery started. Its finest blend of amber, vanilla and musk almost immediately holds public's interest, convincing women around the world about wearing perfume. No longer was it considered a luxury or necessity, rather a compulsion. Let's take a drip down the memory lane and learn about all time favorite perfumes.
Original classics
For those who wish to get a feel of true luxury and well-being, start with classic fragrances. In 1921, a Parisian designer Coco Chanel debut the perfume industry by selecting fifth vial from sample scents. The outcome was "Chanel No 5", that eventually became a bestseller with a sweet yet invigorating blend of citrus and floral. Even the actress, Marilyn Monroe admitted it being the only perfume she ever wore to bed. In 1925, four years later came sequel to the original "Jicky" though created by Guerlain, after success of "Shalimar". It contains a balance of vanilla, iris, jasmine and rose; considered a flagship in Guerlain's array even today.
In 1929, almost one year after the collapse of world economy came "Joy". The attempt made by French designer "Jean Patou" was to elude the depressive air while leave a wave of joy. Deluxe combination of rose, jasmine and musk made it world's most expensive perfume at that time. Celebrating the end of austerity left by World War II, designer Christian Dior sparks a new life by releasing series of excellent fragrances such as "New Look" and "Miss Dior" later in 1947. Rich floral fragrance of "L'Air du Temps" spruced up the design house of Nina Ricci in 1948.
Affordable favorites
"Evening in Paris", being affordable allow every woman to wear real French scents. In 1928, inexpensive fragrance market was given a kick-start when French cosmetic firm "Bourjois" designed the scent for American industry. A seducing whiff of vanilla, musk, Turkish rose and violet came in a cobalt blue bottle almost immediately became desire of every women. The ad campaign delivered a concept of wearing "Evening in Paris" being the next best thing.
For younger generation
In 1970s, the perfume industry targeted blue jeaned youths with more affordable fragrances. Another reasonable fragrance, however after decades became a luxury scent among youngsters named as "Charlie". It was launched by Revlon in 1973 having a snappy, fresh-flower smell that provoked casual elegance. Marketing campaign was quite creative with a catchy jingle that made it one-of-its-kind fragrance for teenage girls. "Obsession" by Calvin Klein in 1985 spiced up the youth fragrance industry however its commercials were censored being unethical at that time.
Timeless delights
Great perfumes last a lifetime even after years of release and quite appealing to all senses. Designer Jean Carles in 1932 created "Tabu" that carried an enticing base of patchouli and amber. The idea of perfume being a provocateur was revised in 1977 with introduction of "Opium" by Yves Saint Laurent that has a sultry combination of musk and oriental spice. "Angel" came out in 1992, designed by Thierry Mugler. Packing a new blend of fruits with a touch of caramel, vanilla and chocolate; it's quite stimulating to foodies! Bottled in a stylish star-shaped flask, a reminiscent of early era, "Angel" depicted the idea of grand perfumers.
Buy these perfumes in Dubai at a much affordable cost as compared to anywhere in the world and get enchanted.

This week Galway once again seamlessly transitions from the Galway Arts Festival to the Racing Festival at Ballybrit, moving from one form of high drama to another and from one heady combination of tension, tears and laughter to another. Over the course of the week, there will be heroes, villains, tragic and comic moments, with lots of money changing hands (largely in one direction!).
Galway remains the largest horse-racing event in Ireland. Attendance has fallen since the heady days of the Celtic Tiger, however, in 2011 there were over 160,000 people in attendance over the seven days of racing, with over 46,000 making the special effort for Ladies' day (Thursday).
Horse racing is one of Ireland's longest established indigenous industries. The 2009 Dukes report established that the industry was contributing circa €1 billion to the economy and employed circa 16,000 people. Internationally, Irish bred and trained horses have a reputation that is second to none. Six of the top ten in the world thoroughbred ranked two year-olds are Irish trained. Ireland is the largest exporter of thoroughbred foals in Europe and we export circa 50 per cent of our total produce – an industry with a revenue potential of some €200 million per annum (source HRI 2010 annual report).
A review of the numbers involved may surprise people. According to the 2011 HRI Factbook, there are only 220 stallions registered at stud in Ireland, with some 13,761 mares and 7,550 foals. These numbers represent a very significant drop from the 2007 numbers when there were 411 stallions, 20,700 mares and 12,633 foals. Sales have also taken a substantial hit – at €81 million in 2011 the market saw a marked recovery from the 2010 figure of €68 million. This is again a marked contrast with the 2007 figure of €179 million.
The end of the Celtic Tiger also meant a big fall off in ownership. The number of syndicates (where a group of people club together to own a horse collectively) has fallen from nearly 1,500 to 777 as people find that they can no longer afford the 'running' cost of their horse.
The good news is that the industry seems to have stabilised. 2011 was actually a positive year, with strong growth in sales, a three per cent increase in attendance and remarkable success for Irish trained horses abroad. As we continue the long struggle to recovery, we have to recognise that Ireland has a very attractive product and we need to make sure that we continue to support and develop our equine industry. It generates both revenue and employment (not to mention a lot of good days out!).
So, enjoy the races this week and, if you are having a flutter, remember Harry S Truman's words to the wise: "It isn't important who is ahead one time or another, in either an election or a horse race. It's the horse that comes in first at the finish that counts."

Things You'll Need
- Pair of glasses
- Sheet of cardboard
- Pencil
- Sheet of black acetate
- Paint
- Craft scissors
- Gorilla glue
How to Make Sunglasses. Maybe you can't afford a pair of sunglasses or just haven't found a pair you like. Perhaps you want to work on a craft with your kids or you are just one of those craftsy types and simply want to make a pair of your own. Whatever your reasons, you can easily make a pair of sunglasses for yourself. Read on to learn how to do this.
Use a pair of glasses as a template to create a stencil. Hold them against the sheet of cardboard and trace the outline using a pencil. Turn the glasses on their side to trace out the stem on each side. Draw in the inner rims for each eye.
Cut out the stencil with a pair of craft scissors. Make sure you cut out the eye holes. Bend the stem on each side of the stencil. You now have the frame for your sunglasses.
Trace the outline of the eye holes onto a sheet of acetate, using the eye holes in the cardboard frames as a template. Cut out the eye hole shapes, leaving a 1/4-inch allowance along the edges. These will be your lenses.
Paint the cardboard frames black and set them down to dry. Apply gorilla glue to the edge of each acetate cut out, and glue one to the inner side of each eye hole. Let the glue dry.
Wipe any fingerprints off the acetate and wear your new sunglasses.

AI for Good: Autonomous World
The Internet of Things is poised to revolutionize how we live and work. Over the next decade, we'll boldly progress from connecting previously unconnected devices, to creating a world of smart and connected autonomous things and experiences. AI plays a pivotal role in enabling these autonomous functions, and Intel is foundational, from the data center, through the network edge and all the way to the device. We'll see autonomous functions in everything from cars (a well-known example), to robots, to retail, to smart cities. Join this session to hear perspectives on the impact AI will have in enabling autonomous functions across a variety of industries.

Stryker brigade slammed by insurgents
Overlooked during the ongoing battle with Darth Sadr, there has been a fair amount of action lately in the Mosul area lately.
Insurgents with mortars, rocket-propelled grenades, AK-47s and improvised bombs fought a series of coordinated, running attacks against Stryker and Iraqi troops. One estimate put the number of attackers at 30 to 40, another at more than 100.
Either way, U.S. and Iraqi forces killed an undetermined number of them – the official estimate is at least a dozen – while suffering no losses themselves.
About a dozen Stryker troops were wounded; all but two returned to duty, said Lt. Col. Kevin Hyneman, the brigade's deputy commander.
Hyneman said about a dozen Strykers were damaged, mostly the tires and some sections of slat armor that protects the vehicles from RPGs. All were repaired and returned to service within two days, he said.
Also mentioned is the online account of blogger CBFTW. Check it out for some first-person reporting. Harrowing stuff, including:
Note: I dont think CNN's report of only 12 dead is accurate.
His article is too good to excerpt. Go read.

Royal Netherlands Institute of Southeast Asian & Caribbean Studies (KITLV), Netherlands
The Leiden Centre for Indian Ocean Studies has been active for two years. Its activities include lecture series, book launches, workshops with PhD students, and international collaborations. These past successes reveal a broadly shared need to engage with the Indian Ocean in a more institutionalized way. Paradoxically, the actual Indian Ocean is often lacking in institutional collaborations on the Indian Ocean, causing us to miss out on opportunities to include students and scholars from the region as well as other thinkers (artists, film makers, memoirists, etc.). We aim, therefore, to re-establish connections across the Indian Ocean and forge new ones. Over the past years, we have located three threads in which the Indian Ocean can open up creative spaces to think about broad, collaborative issues:
1) The Ocean as a strategic space: e.g. ports, security-policies, the environment, OBOR, and the historical trajectories of these themes.
2) Methodological innovation: e.g. drawing from new types of archives and practices, such as textile-working and food-preparation.
3) A laboratory for societal output: e.g. synergies between scholarship, art, heritage, community initiatives, and popular history.
Concretely, we aim to play a role in establishing synergies and durable networks between institutions within the Indian Ocean. To do so, we plan to co-organize regular events hosted by affiliated institutions in Zanzibar, Calicut, Muscat, Penang, Cape Town, Banda Aceh, and others. These include biannual mentorship events in which academics (predominantly) from the Indian Ocean are invited to teach reading-and-writing workshops to students from the region. A conference will follow each workshop. We plan to host the pilot workshop in Calicut in December 2020.
During this interactive Roundtable, a number of established researchers will be asked to respond to pre-circulated questions, which can help us homogenize our agendas and outline fundraising strategies to sponsor scholars and students from the Indian Ocean to play a central part in this initiative.

I've been exploring the issue of ethical shopping lately.
Since reading The Ethics of What We Eat by Peter Singer and Jim Mason last year, I've changed my shopping habits around food (and therefore my family's habits). Our trolley now has less meat (and organic or free range meat when we do eat it), fair trade tea, coffee and chocolate, and more organic and local produce. I've also become conscious of the sustainability of different types of fish and seafood, and which types are 'better' to purchase.
My eyes were not only opened to the incredibly inhumane conditions animals are kept in factory farming and feedlots, but the huge environmental cost of factory farming animals. Imagine the waste that thousands of chickens (or cows) produce when kept in small confines and the effects that has on the land, creeks and rivers. People who live near piggeries say the stench is unbearable, and in some factory farms, the ammonia from the animals waste actually burns the animals' eyes. Terrible images like this were described in the book, but also some amazingly beautiful things were revealed. Like, for example, in their natural state, pigs build nests to have their piglets in. Can you imagine pigs nesting?
So what is the cost of this new diet?
Free range meat is expensive when compared to the non-free range variety. But after reading that book, I firmly believe that the cost of non free range meat isn't the 'true cost'. There is no environmental levy added in to the cost of meat to help recuperate damaged farms. We're not paying for the impacts the meat we eat has created. So my conscious choice here is that if free range meat is too expensive for me, then I can't afford to eat meat: because I need to pay the true cost. Similarly, if fair trade chocolate is too expensive for me, then I should go without chocolate (thankfully it's not!).
Of course ethical eating is more complicated when you live in a household of other conscious beings with their own wants and needs (especially little tikes!). If I was single, I'd probably go vegetarian, but the boys (and bloke) in my family tend to enjoy their meat, so free range is a good option. If I was single I'd probably be visiting farmers markets every weekend too and sourcing more local stuff. But at the moment that's in the too hard basket and so I drag my trolley around Woolies or Coles (wishing I wasn't feeding the big corporate pockets) trying to make more conscious and informed choices about what I buy.
It's also really interesting how relatively hard or easy it is to eat ethically according to where you live. If I lived in Newtown, it'd be a piece of cake. Living in Hurstville ethical eating has been challenging. The predominantly Asian culture around here sees cheap butchers, with ducks hanging out the front and cage eggs at cheaper than chips prices proliferating. Our nearest free range butcher is at Caringbah, although there is one at Oatley that sells free range pork products. So that gets you into the head space how much petrol you're using to buy your food.
Our diet is not completely ethical. But what I can say is that my shopping is more informed, and I'm very happy about this. To make conscious, weighted decisions is important in life and to know that I am actively trying to improve the quality of animals' lives, the health of the environment and the lives of those working in developing nations are important to me. So I'm going to pay the true cost – as much as I can work it out.

Maori is one of three official languages of Aotearoa
Welsh is one of the official languages of the UK but news readers don't introduce themselves in it other than on Welsh language programs because official or not it's a minority language.
No person I've met in New Zealand speaks Maori other than odds and sods or as a joke like "tin of cocoa" so whilst it may be official it certainly isn't in common use by most New Zealanders.
UK's policy on regional languages and dialects has little or no relevance to the situation in NZ.
I find your objection to the very limited use of Te Reo in public broadcasting rather intolerant, trivial, and ignorant - so that I needed to provide you with the translation. If you did in fact know what it meant but were trolling, then I guess I'd have to add that to my list of something that "really annoys me" as being an example of pointless trouble-making.
It's surely not too hard to learn how to introduce yourself - or understand someone introducing themselves in Maori.
Can't see any particular need nor much likelihood anyone I meet will do so.
Te Reo Māori enriches our culture and enriches the user, try it you may just like it.

"Andrés Wilson pushes beyond musical boundaries, incorporating so effortlessly elements of jazz, blues, funk and pop into his own melodic song stylings."
Joel Simches, The Noise
"Ink & Sound is a must-have for fans of rock guitar. I'd take a chance on this one if I were you."
-Doug Cornell, Hit Session Magazine
"He's taken his own musical path, mixing metal, blues and world beat on his self-released CD "Ink & Sound."
-Jed Gottlieb, The Boston Herald
"A one-man band, Wilson's guitar style went back and forth between rhythm and lead with highly percussive strums."
-Ken Maiuri, The Hampshire Gazette
The son of two musicians, Andrés was named after the famed classical guitarist, Andrés Segovia. He has been a touring professional guitarist and singer-songwriter since his late teens, having performed everything from jazz to heavy metal and everything in between throughout his native Boston, the broader U.S., Montréal, France, England, and Israel. His début album INK & SOUND was named one of Boston's top five by Metronome Magazine in 2007 and his acoustic EP and accompanying poetry book, CITYSCAPES & APPARITIONS was released digitally in January of 2013. An instrumental, jazz/rock/world fusion album, BLACK ORPHEUS is slated for release early in 2018.
As a sideman, Andrés is frequently in the orchestra pit of your favorite shows and he has recorded and played with a variety of groups and artists, including hip-hop artist Dell Wells, but most recently he has been the touring and recording guitarist for the
classically-influenced rock singer-songwriter, Asia Mei, with whom he often plays as a duo, and the Grammy-Award-winning reggae artist, King Mas.
Andrés thinks of himself as a 21st-century Renaissance Man and earned his B.M. from the Berklee College of Music, a M.A. in literature from Columbia University, and a PhD in Comparative Literature from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. Andrés is also currently an adjunct professor at Newbury College in Brookline, Ma., and Quincy College in Quincy, Ma. When not making music, reading or writing, he can usually be found running around with his kids, Eden and Liam, practicing yoga poses, or recklessly riding his bicycle in circles.
The music of Andres Wilson & The Waters fuses his many influences into melodic, richly poetic songs. Andrés's crooning voice soars over colorful, distorted harmonies from his guitar. Sinuous, violin-like guitar leads embellish head bobbing grooves with pulchritude. Listen to the debut album Ink & Sound (2006) and stomp along with the infectious groove of the first track, "A Million Miles." There are some heavier moments with throbbing rhythms and wailing leads ("El Dorado" & "Poverty and Resource"), while other tracks flirt with mainstream pop and sport infectious hooks ("The Woods", "Little Island", "Home"). The lyrics are full of rich imagery and illuminating symbols, impressionistic but easily deciphered by careful listeners. Andrés sings about alienation, our moments of color within the gray, and the epiphanies one experiences as life untangles like a roll of yarn. High-energy live shows are defined by heart, soul, and moments of jaw-dropping instrumental heroics. Musically, CITYSCAPES & APPARITIONS (2013) is much more introspective and hopeful, reminiscent of Nick Drake and acoustic blues with lyrical forays into satire and frequent references to religious mysticism. The poetry is much more eclectic, spanning over ten years of creative and personal growth. His most recent instrumental project, BLACK ORPHEUS (2018), marks a return to his roots as a guitar virtuoso albeit with added sophistication and charm.
"As long as these types of artists keep coming around then music has a chance...[y]ou've got to listen to this kid; he's truly got some talent and should be heard at high levels."
-Dan Rondinelli, Indie In-Tune Northeast
"Andrés Wilson pushes beyond musical boundaries, incorporating so effortlessly elements of jazz, blues, funk and pop into his own melodic song stylings."

LIMA, Peru -- Attempts to get Seton Hall star Myles Powell to talk about any Big East rivalry jabs during Team USA practices at the 2019 Pan American Games were fruitless.
Powell preferred to focus on what he called a chip on his shoulder while leading the tournament's youngest roster. He showed Big East rivals and Team USA backcourt mates Collin Gillespie of Villanova and guard Alpha Diallo of Providence the proper reverence as they fought for a common goal.
"Everybody can play," Powell said at the beginning of the tournament. "We're in a really good conference and I think we're showing the world that right now."
So jumping two steps ahead to gauge his NBA draft prospects with his senior season ahead of him is a further exercise in futility. If Lima 2019 is any indication, however, and if you listen to those around him at the Pan American Games, he's in for a smooth landing at the next level.
The U.S. men won bronze, falling short of their goal of winning Pan American gold for the first time since 1983. They were at times overwhelmed by a veteran gold-medal winning Argentina squad and a young Puerto Rico team that won silver. Still, Powell showed glimpses of reinforcing his credentials as a top-flight scorer capable of taking over a game.
"He's a helluva player," said U.S. center Geoffrey Groselle, who graduated from Creighton in 2016. "I've played with a lot of good guards, a lot of pro guards, and he could hang with the best of them. He's got a quick trigger, and when he's hot, he's hot. He's not missing."
Powell was hot in a 70-53 preliminary-round victory over Venezuela, scoring a tournament-high 30 points on 9-of-9 shooting from inside the arc. He also scored 19 in the opener and finished in Lima averaging 14.6 points per game, second on the team to Diallo's 15.0.
Powell's reputation as a scorer was established before the Pan American Games. The guard was 13th in the nation in scoring last season at 23.1 points per game -- the highest average in Seton Hall history -- for a team that finished 20-14 and upset Kentucky in December thanks in part to his 28 points. His 107 3-pointers last season are also a school record in one season. Team USA's Ed Cooley, who faces Powell twice a year as Providence's head coach, called him the best shooter in college basketball.
Powell tested the NBA draft waters as allowed under the NCAA but decided to come back for his senior season, leaving Seton Hall poised to make a run at fifth straight NCAA tournament appearance.
I can honestly say I'm so happy with the decision I made to come back to school !!!!!! Drafted or Undrafted next year ... I will have my College Degree something that no one will ever be able to take from me 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾— Myles Powell (@Myles_MBP_23) June 21, 2019
Seton Hall coach Kevin Willard, an assistant under Cooley with Team USA, kept in touch with his guard as he was displaying his talents to NBA teams. The workouts went well, Willard said, and the feedback received was positive.
"It was a great learning experience for Myles on understanding just what he needs to improve on, not only to get to the NBA but most importantly to stay in the NBA," Willard said. "And that's our goal. We don't want him just to make it, we want him to be able to stay and have a great career."
The native of Trenton, New Jersey, was 81st on the ESPN 100 recruiting list, coming in from Connecticut's South Kent School, in a Class of 2016 that included NBA stars Jayson Tatum and Lonzo Ball. Scouting reports are consistent in noting his ability to heat up from any range at any moment -- Powell and James Harden, with whom he's often compared, are the only players to score 40 points in the season-opening Wooden Legacy tournament.
He has had the opportunity to round out the parts of his game that need work, such as defense and distribution, in Peru.
"I've really been impressed with the fact that there's times where we've asked him to be a little bit more of a role player, a little bit more unselfish, and how much he's accepted whatever we've asked him," Willard said.
Some things remain a work in progress. Team USA couldn't hold on against Puerto Rico after Powell, already banged up coming in and with just two points in the game, fouled out in the fourth quarter of an 87-84 loss. A full-strength Argentina team ranked fifth by FIBA suffocated the U.S. from the start in a 114-75 defeat that saw Powell score just eight points on 30% shooting.
Groselle, who is entering his fourth year as a pro and played with Powell for the first time just before the Pan American Games, isn't worried about the guard's NBA stock.
"He's not selfish, either," Groselle said. "That's something that surprised me. A lot of times with guards like him, they start to get a little bit selfish. But he's not. He's willing to give the ball inside, he's willing to make that extra pass, which at the next level is going to be very useful for him."
The parts are in place, though. The "unbelievable competitor" Powell possesses an insatiable ability to not only be the best but to win, his coach said.
"He has as big a heart as any young man I've ever come around," Willard said. "There's not a person, a player that's been around Myles that just doesn't fall in love with the kid."

IdeaMosaic went to Beakerhead! In September 2017, IdeaMosaic was on the streets of Calgary, as part of the Four to Six program at Beakerhead. As participants from Toronto, we were highlighting the amazing science that Toronto has to offer, while engaging people of all ages through creative participation. Our goal: start conversations between scientists and the public.
To achieve our goal, we designed a project called Science in a Bottle. The public in Calgary had the opportunity to send questions and comments to scientists in Toronto, by sending a message in a bottle!
The first stage of the project involved a Toronto researcher writing a message about their research, which was placed on their very own bottle. These bottles were displayed on Stephen Avenue during Beakerhead, and in front of the Calgary Public Library for Science Literacy Week during the following week! The public was encouraged to check out some of the research that is happening in Toronto, and they will had the opportunity to have their curiosities answered, through a response to their message in a bottle.
Researchers are currently in the process of answering the hundreds of questions received, which will be sent to the askers in the coming weeks!
If you are interested in taking part in future projects like this, contact Reeda at email@example.com or tweet to us at @IdeaMosaic!
This cross-country collaboration between Alberta's Beakerhead & Calgary Public Library, and Ontario's IdeaMosaic, was made possible through the generous support of the National Science and Engineering Research Council (NSERC). We hope that this partnership inspires further science engagement collaboration across Canada.

The Value of Privacy
- Publish Date: 2004-12-10
- Binding: Paperback
- Author: Beate Rossler
This new book by Beate Rossler is a work of real quality and originality on an extremely topical issue: the issue of privacy and the relations between the private and the public.
Rossler investigates the reasons why we value privacy and why we ought to value it. In the context of modern, liberal societies, Rossler develops a theory of the private which links privacy and autonomy in a constitutive way: privacy is a necessary condition to lead an autonomous life. The book develops a theory of freedom and autonomy which sees the ability to pose the practical question of how one wants to live, of what a person strives to be, at the centre of the modern idea of autonomy.
The question of privacy is emerging as an increasingly important topic in social and political theory and is central to many current debates in law, the media and politics. The Value of Privacy will be widely recognised to be a classic contribution to the subject.

Oh yes, finally get a chance to try the food in Dazzling cafe after last year fave when they opened. Located at CBD area, Stamford road, it is quite accessible via public transport such as MRT (alight at city hall station) or bus.
2 levels of seats available
Menu for your mains
There is a separate menu if you are looking for Toasts
Weekday special for just $19.90 nett. This is quite a good deal for lunch. You get to choose either a soup or tea on top of your main (Spaghetti). The choice of spaghetti range at about $16.90++, so just another $3 you will get a soup/tea.
I decided to try this lunch special
Cream of Mushroom - Thick brown mushroom soup which the mushrooms are finely blended. Quite delicious if you ask me.
Scallops and crabmeat agilo oilo - Surprised by this dish, seriously real crab meat was used instead of those artificially made crabmeat sticks. Mildly spicy. Scallops are cooked nicely, topped with roasted garlic for extra kicks.
Hazalnut Cocoa ($9 iced)
Matcha with Azuki Beans Honey Toast ($19.90)
Nice presentation of the dessert. 3 thick toasts topped with matcha ice cream and covered with thick layer of cream. The toasts are coated thinly with sugar. The interior of the toasts had been filled with cubed size bread. I hardly find the azuki beans in the toast, maybe just a few beans on the outside. Overall, the sweetness is acceptable, but just too much cream to my liking

Address: 15 Stamford Rd, 01-85, Singapore 178906
Phone:6384 3310
Opening Hour: 12–10.30 PM
Verdict 4/5
Impressive presentation of the food, however i find the taste for the toast is somewhat a let down.
I have to compliment the staffs. Very good service and attentiveness i received from the staffs.
It is still worth the experience if you have not tried theirs version in Taiwan outlet

When her father was diagnosed with early Alzheimer's, then 14-year-old Melissa was forced to grow up before time, and be his caretaker.
Melissa experienced an emotional rollercoaster in her life as she tried to balance school, her teenage years and caregiving. She wished she knew more about the condition so that she could have had more understanding and empathy.
"No one taught us how to feel when we watched you slowly slip away, or how to react when your memories started fading, and you stopped remembering who we were", she says in the letter to her father.
Today, Melissa runs Project We Forgot as a tribute to her father and to support young caregivers. She also reaches out to various institutions to help raise awareness for the needs and support for young caregivers.
Watch and listen to Melissa's story in the video in her own words. And don't forget to grab some tissues, you may need them.
"I wanted to draw from my experience to do something for my father, something that would live on in his memory. My faint memories of him were from when I was younger. I never really got the chance to know him better as a person, and as my father, before we had to finally let him go. Project We Forgot is partially a tribute to him", says Melissa.
Project We Forgot provides an online space for identification for young caregivers caring for a loved one with dementia through personal stories. They drive strong outreach across social channels through branded content to target the young. They advocate and build a community of support for young caregivers who may be caring for a parent or a grandparent with dementia.

It's new location update time! I've gotten a number of requests in the last few weeks to check out specific locations and I am trying to keep up with them all and find information. Sorry if the place you wanted to know about isn't in here today, but I'll keep looking and hoping that everyone gets the Costco they've been hoping for. I had a bunch of people write me about Ukiah, California and unfortunately, I don't have an update on when they will break ground or how the project is progressing.
Locations opening soon:
|No September 2014 Openings
Jackson, Mississippi
Well, this looked so positive at first, but sadly the plan for Costco to open in Jackson seems to have gone bust. Costco had really wanted to move to a location on Lakeland Drive where the Smith-Wills Stadium is currently located but that is not to be it seems. The planning board for Jackson was going to need to rezone the area for commercial use before Costco could move there. Unfortunately, the stadium and surrounding area are only allowed by state law to be used for parks and recreation. So, it probably wasn't a huge surprise that the board voted against the rezoning at their August 27 meeting. The mayor, Tony Yarber, is determined to figure out a way to bring Costco to Jackson, and in particular the site near the stadium. Costco has looked at two other nearby sites in Flowood but they are in Rankin county which is dry, so that creates an issue for Costco and makes those sites far less attractive. No word yet (that I've seen) on what the next steps are from the mayor. Though he might have some latitude with another vote since only ten of the 15 board members were present for the vote and one of them abstained in the 6-3 vote against rezoning. However, it seems so unlikely that this site is going to work out and Costco will need to find another property within Jackson city limits or move on to another area completely and leave Jackson Costco-less and without the benefits of added jobs and tax revenue that they will bring.

Rochester, New York
Costco is coming to the new CityGate development in Rochester that will be anchored by Costco, but also contain a hotel, other retailers, office space, and an apartment complex. The project has hit a couple of weird things in the construction process so far, like a network of tunnels under the site that were on top of very old foundations that were not known about, and that added around $4 million to the construction costs, but the project continues to move forward and the developers have renegotiated their tax benefits with the Monroe County development board. The developers should have closed with Costco by now too. And remarkably, construction of the new Costco is expected to take just 90 days to complete. That means Costco could be open in Rochester by the end of the year.
New Britain, Connecticut
After Costco indicated that they were willing to skip building in New Britain if they didn't get some tax consideration, the council voted 12-3 in favor of a seven-year phase-in of taxes for the Costco proposed for land alongside the Stanley Golf Course, amounting to $2.1 in tax abatement for Costco. It turns out that the prospect of jobs, tax revenue, and the potential for more commercial growth spurred the council to make the decision in Costco's favor. Costco has been trying to get a new location built in New Britain since 2011, so it is great that this finally seems to be back on track. To kick things off there was a big groundbreaking ceremony last week for the new Costco which should be open in Fall 2015.

Jerome, Ohio
Jerome's new Dublin Green shopping center could end up being anchored by a new Costco store. The developers have a tentative agreement with Costco, but the agreement hasn't been finalized so something could prevent it still, but hopefully not. The new 154,000 square foot store will be a major part of the 300,000 square foot shopping area of which the developer has already signed letters of intent to fill 80 per cent. Costco will present its plans for the new store at the township's zoning commission meeting on September 22. Since there is no rezoning needed, this approval shouldn't be hard to achieve. If all goes smoothly construction on the new shopping center and Costco could start in Spring 2015 which could mean that the new Costco location should be open by November 2015.
Melbourne, Victoria, Australia
Victoria will be getting their fourth Costco location next year when Costco opens a new store at Moorabbin Airport in Melbourne (despite the title for the article this is actually the fourth approved location in Victoria). Costco had to get approval from the Kingston Council, which was granted recently. But they also had to get federal approval since the airport is located on federal lands. That final approval was given recently by Infrastructure and Regional Development Minister Warren Truss. The new Moorabbin Airport location will include a tyre centre, optometrist, and a petrol station.
If you're wondering the third Victoria location is in Epping which was approved by the council there late 2013, though the one at Moorabbin Airport could be finished first it seems since I haven't heard anything more about progress on the Epping store.
