SPINACH – Why Eat It?
Spinach, like most leafy greens, is loaded with calcium, folic acid, vitamin K and iron. Spinach is also rich in vitamin C, fiber and carotenoids. Add in lutein and a couple of other big Scientist type words, like bioflavanoids, etc., and it's a nutritional powerhouse. Popeye ate his spinach, but honestly, why should you?
Well, the high calcium makes it a great choice for starters. Add in a hefty dose of Vitamins A, C, K, fiber, folic acid, magnesium and other nutrients that help to control cancer, especially colon, lung and breast cancers. Folate also lowers the blood levels of something called homocysteine, a protein that damages arteries. So spinach also helps protect against heart disease.
Spinach's secret weapon, lutein, makes it one of the best foods in the world to prevent cataracts, as well as age related macular degeneration. Foods rich in lutein are also thought to help prevent cancer. So, we should all be eating lots of fresh, home grown spinach!

Noctilucent clouds behave unusually – as a rule, they begin to fade at the end of July, and then completely disappear in August, which is a seasonal pattern.
However, this year the noctilucent clouds by the end of July became even more intense. Kairo Kiitsak took this picture in the town of Simun in Estonia. According to him, on July 26, the noctilucent clouds over the city looked amazing. In general, they could be watched for 3 hours.
These clouds also appeared in the south of Poland, where they were admired by Marek Nikodem before the sunrise on July 28. He noted that this was a real surprise, because, as a rule, the season of noctilucent clouds in Poland ends on July 25.
Noctilucent clouds are formed when summer water vapor rises to the top of the atmosphere and envelops meteor smoke. The mesospheric winds contribute to the formation of the resulting ice crystals in the noctilucent clouds. In 2017, a thermal wave in the mesosphere melted these crystals, which led to a short period of absence of noctilucent clouds. Could something like that happen, but the opposite happened at the end of the season of noctilucent clouds? Perhaps the cooling in the mesosphere extended the season? Another possibility is the solar cycle. Previous studies have shown that noctilucent clouds can sometimes become more intense during the solar minimum. At present, such conditions are in effect – in recent months the activity of the Sun has fallen to zero.

The cost of construction in the Middle East is set to pick up in 2019 after a period of stagnation, according to new research.
Global professional services firm Turner & Townsend said improving commodity prices will shore up fresh investment and development activity in the region.
The International Construction Market Survey 2019 revealed that the previously stagnant construction markets of Muscat and Riyadh are showing signs of awakening due to improved oil revenues and economic diversification programmes.
The report noted that market confidence in the UAE is being buoyed by significant projects in Dubai and large-scale infrastructure investment in Abu Dhabi.
It added that Riyadh is expected to see the greatest construction cost inflation in the Middle East in 2019 at 5 percent – outstripping the average global construction cost inflation of 4.1 percent forecast for this year.
The cost of building in the Middle East is still lagging considerably behind other key locations in the global rankings. After a 1 percent fall in construction prices during 2018, Muscat sits 44th in the league table, with an average cost of construction equivalent to just a third of that in New York City.
Globally, San Francisco has overtaken New York as the most expensive city in which to build worldwide, followed by London, Zurich and Hong Kong.
Overall, two-thirds of the markets surveyed by Turner & Townsend reported a labour skills shortage, but the muted levels of construction demand in the Middle East in recent years means the crisis isn't yet being felt as acutely as in other global markets.
It said the UAE is in balance while Muscat and Riyadh are two of only five markets worldwide to report a surplus of construction trade labour.
Adam Ralph, director and head of real estate, Middle East at Turner & Townsend, said: "The rallying of oil prices in the short-term has provided fresh impetus and opportunities in the region, but ultimately it is diversification of the economic base away from oil and gas that is set to be the key driver of construction demand across the Middle East in the long term.
Globally, the report highlighted a strong construction market, with 28 percent of markets surveyed classed as 'hot' or 'overheating'.


text: Petra & Tahir's cross-cultural outdoor peacock wedding #Real Weddings: Canada#canada#couples of color#DIY#economical wedding#henna#interfaith#jump the broom#manitoba#mismatched-bridesmaids#muslim#peacock feathers#two weddings Updated Oct 12 2015 (Posted Mar 15 2012) Offbeat Editors Photos by Modern Pixel Photography The offbeat bride: Petra, Anthropology Graduate Student Her offbeat partner: Tahir, Computer Engineering Graduate Student Date and location of wedding: Assiniboine Park, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada — July 2, 2011 Our offbeat wedding at a glance: Tahir and I decided to get married in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Neither of us were born there, but Tahir grew up in Winnipeg and I attended high school there after moving to Canada from the Czech Republic. Both sets of parents still live there, and it was the central location that made the most sense. Tahir has family in Germany and Senegal and my family is in Slovakia, plus we have friends who could not make it to Winnipeg, so of course, a lot of our loved ones were with us in spirit. I really wanted to prove to myself that I could pull off a classy wedding on a student's budget. So, we were involved in every single aspect of our wedding: making homemade invitations, crafting fabric flowers for the boutonnieres, corsages/pins, and my bouquet, making vanilla syrup favours, prepping the food, and setting up the tables, chairs, and decorations for the reception tent. The peacock was a central theme because I learned early on that one of the first question that a future bride gets asked is, "So, what's your theme?" At first I was stumped? "My theme is… marriage?" Then I figured, heck, why not have a theme? The peacock fit because it has lovely colours, and is also the coat of arms for Tahir's Senegalese family. Perfect! We also had an opera singer, henna instead of manicures, and a whole roasted lamb, Senegalese-style! Both the ceremony and the reception were outside, and we had gorgeous weather. What I truly cherish about our wedding is that it would not have been possible without the help of our dear friends and family. They pitched in with every single aspect (cooking, music making, set-up, driving, you name it!) and it really was a community affair. So thank you again from the bottom of our hearts. Tell us about the ceremony: Tahir is Muslim, so we actually had two ceremonies. We had a nikkah, an Islamic ceremony at his parents' house, which was a lovely small affair. The ceremony lasted only about two minutes, during which a few prayers were said, we exchanged rings (that went back into the box to be used a week later at our other ceremony), and then we ate. Our second ceremony was in the Leo Mol Sculpture Gardens at Assiniboine Park. Tahir and I put the ceremony together and wrote our own vows. We walked along a path together to the landing in front of the pond. We had our family members read their favourite poetry as we planted a tree together. I vowed to make Tahir Black Forest Cherry Cake for life, and we jumped over a homemade broom at the end. Our biggest challenge: One of our biggest challenges was our unwillingness to spend a lot of money on the wedding, coupled with my perfectionism! Tahir was much more laid back than I was, which made my perfectionist, control freak self stress out even more. In the end everything worked out because, while I did a lot of work months before the wedding, Tahir brilliantly took over and handled the machinations of the wedding itself. So, in other words, we are a good team. My favorite moment: I loved seeing all our friends and family decorating the tent with us before the ceremony, and greeting our guests together on the path to the pond before the ceremony. An insane amount of dragonflies flew over us during the ceremony too! We loved planting a tree together as our family members read out poems, and taking a break and sitting quietly together after getting our photos taken. My funniest moment: Our amazing emcee, Youssef, did a fantastic job entertaining our guests, and he came up with the brilliant idea of going through six traditional ceremonies from across the world. Now, as an anthropology student, this had me in a tizzy! Both moms threw eggs in a box, Tahir threw rice at my head, and I got to smash a plate. While blindfolded, Tahir had to choose my hand among many others. At the last second, my sister-in-law and I switched places and tricked him so he chose wrong. Needless to say, we had the whole tent roaring with laughter. My advice for offbeat brides: Your wedding is about your family and community, and also about you and your partner! There will always be dissenting opinions and crazy ideas threatening to upend the wedding boat. But if you listen to your heart and trust yourself, you can have the wedding you want. And even if it isn't perfect, it will still be an amazing party. What was the most important lesson you learned from your wedding? Let go and trust your partner! Really, planning a wedding is a good lesson in project management, as well as learning how you work with your partner. Also, a wedding is not the be-all and end-all of your relationship. It is a venue for showcasing how much you and your partner mean to each other, but don't give it (any) more power than it deserves! Care to share a few vendor/shopping links?

By Andrew Campbell
The clock is ticking on this summer's transfer window and still we appear to be woefully short in one area in particular – at left-back.
With Paul Dummett our only senior player in this position, we are only a serious injury or a suspension away from being left in a real mess – something Rafa's clearly been trying to avoid all summer, with him big on bringing in cover to up the levels of competition.
DeAndre Yedlin and Paul Dummett will start the season as the full backs, but we have only Javier Manquillo and youngster Jamie Sterry as cover – two players we simply cannot be relying on at this level.
We had a few 'options' in these areas last season, but with Jesus Gamez, Chancel Mbemba and Massaidio Haidara all leaving and Achraf Lazaar nowhere to be seen, we are threadbare.
We have been heavily linked with a move for PSG's left back Stanley N'Soki, but it's a real worry that with just over 48 hours left to do business, we're still yet to secure a signing in such a priority position.
If we fail to get anyone 'over the line', we're asking for trouble. An injury to Paul Dummett would not only mean one less centre-back option to fill in for the crocked Florian Lejeune, but the return of Javier Manquillo to the side – a right-footed defender who looked so uncomfortable down the left-hand side last season, having poor defensive instincts and constantly wanting to cut in on his right foot when going forward.
We NEED a left-back..
Manquillo no use at LB and Gamez, Haidara and Mbemba (three players who played here at times last season) have all left.
Dummett does a great job, but it's about time he had some competition – especially after he's looked so poor over pre-season. #nufc
— Black&WhiteBarmy (@BlackWhiteBarmy) August 7, 2018
The Chronicle stated today that Rafa would still like a left-back, a centre-back, a number 10 AND a striker, but at this stage I'm just hoping we get some much needed cover for Paul Dummett – a player who's looked out of sorts over pre-season and someone who really does need competition to help him kick on.

We make our Basic Lawn Blend Topsoil at our facility. It is intended to be a filler or a starter soil because it does not contain many nutrients for planting without amending. It is a good mixture to use as a starter if you plan on adding your own composts or additives for nutrients. It is also a good option when you are hydro-seeding or laying sod because it is more affordable. Typically the sod or hydro-seed will contain many of the nutrients your lawn will need.
We keep our soils under cover so the material is dry all year!

The National Trust for the Cayman Islands' annual Earth Day golf tournament at the North Sound Golf Club proved extra memorable for all involved when player Mike McDonald hit a hole-in-one to win a Wheego electric car.
"I was the first to tee-off and was simply looking to clear the lake and keep it in play," said McDonald, an avid golfer and runner. "Initially, I thought it was all over as my ball hit the water 50 yards short of the green. But instead of sinking it skipped across the water, hit the bank, hopped over an iguana onto the green and dropped in the hole.
"We were in disbelief as to what had just happened but when the spotters on green signalled it was in, we started cheering and immediately headed over to see it for ourselves!"
McDonald's hole in one on 19 April was particularly remarkable since hole No. 5 is one of the toughest on the 18-hole course.
"I have not heard of a hole-in-one on that hole," said the North Sound Club's Director of Golf Jason Deerwester. "And, in the 2.5 years I have been at the course, that is the first one in a charity tournament."
This is the first year that the National Trust's Earth Day golf tournament has had an electric car as a hole-in-one prize, an aptly Earth Day-themed vehicle supplied by local business Cayman Automotive.
"We were so delighted that Mike won the Wheego electric car with his impressive hole-in-one," said company president John Felder. "At Cayman Automotive, we have spent many years promoting electric vehicles that provide a green alternative for drivers in Cayman, and for this to happen at the National Trust Earth Day golf tournament, which we proudly sponsored, could not have been more fitting. We hope this inspires more people in Cayman to consider choosing an electric vehicle."
The National Trust is Cayman's only non-governmental, nonprofit organisation dedicated to protecting the islands' historic sites and environmental heritage.
The annual golf tournament represents a key fundraising event for the organisation, which in recent years has been facing increasing financial constraints due to budget cuts and economic factors. Titan Development of Keith Nicholson, Frank Packer, Jason Lovelock and John Fitzgibbons won the team event.
"We want to thank all of our players, including winning team Titan Development, and our many generous event sponsors who made this year's tournament such a success, and congratulate Mike on his fantastic win," said Danielle Vernon, the National Trust's development and marketing coordinator.

Selling Angels
The national touring production of Tony Kushner's epic Angels in America begins previews at the Royal George Theatre Center this week on an encouraging note: hefty advance ticket sales of more than $800,000. That's by far the largest advance-sales amount in the history of Chicago off-Loop theater. Angels is priced at a $45 maximum for weekend performances ($40 midweek), also a record high for an off-Loop show. At capacity the $1 million production will gross $145,500 a week, with weekly operating expenses of just under $100,000. Were the show to sell out every week of its expected six-month run at the Royal George--a daunting task in this era of shrinking audiences--it could be in the black by the time it's scheduled to depart, in early March of 1995. Of course, that means selling about 76,000 more tickets.
So far the show's lead producers, who include Chicagoans Robert Perkins and Windy City Times publisher Jeffrey McCourt along with the team that mounted the Broadway production, have pursued a surprisingly mainstream marketing strategy. Says Perkins: "The work has a proven appeal and is attracting older, family kind of people, though it may not have the appeal of a mainstream musical." Newspaper ads, all of which feature the signature image of an angel with outspread arms, have played up the show's Broadway lineage and its Tony Award and Pulitzer Prize-winning status, steering clear of any suggestion of the work's highly sophisticated adult content, including simulated gay sex and blunt discussions about homosexuality and AIDS.
McCourt, who is overseeing the print campaign, has tried in the early stages to emphasize that the production is not a run-of-the-mill Broadway tour passing through town for a couple of weeks. In a few ads the angel is hovering over photographs of the Chicago skyline, photos McCourt commissioned in order to connect the production to the city in readers' minds. Future ads will include photographs of specific Chicago neighborhoods and of the cast; one of the most dramatic will feature the angel bearing aloft the emaciated body of Prior Walter, one of the characters dying of AIDS in Kushner's work.
Like the print ads, radio spots thus far have generally tried to play up the big-event aspect of the production and avoid detailing its provocative subject matter. (No television commercials are planned for Chicago, though one is being readied to hype the Broadway production in the waning days of its run.) And the producers' choice of radio outlets clearly indicates how strong the push is to sell the show's high-priced tickets to an affluent, mainstream audience that may not respond to frank talk about homosexuality or AIDS. Spots have been airing on a mix of stations that includes news-oriented WMAQ AM, classical WNIB FM, new-age WNUA FM, and, perhaps most surprising of all, WLIT FM and WGN AM, two stations with a proven appeal to older, conservative listeners. Long-standing WGN personality Roy Leonard (who has yet to see this show) has preached the gospel of live theater to a loyal, largely suburban following for years. His fans are one of the markets that producers of glitzy musicals and fluffy comedies traditionally hit hardest.
Whatever fate awaits Angels in Chicago, interest in the show has been growing in other places. Initially the national tour had been expected to stop in only a few carefully selected markets such as Washington, D.C., and Los Angeles, big cities where Kushner's work would presumably be welcomed despite its subject matter. But as interest in the tour has escalated, tour promoters in smaller markets such as Sarasota, Florida, and Iowa City, Iowa, have signed up for engagements, bringing the current total number of stops to 16. The elaborate moving scenery of the Broadway production has been simplified somewhat to enable the show to tour more easily.
Inept "Inc."
Meanwhile the Tribune's "Inc." columnists continue their amazing ineptness regarding items on the Kushner epic. First there was the lead item reporting that Angels in America was coming to Chicago, which ran last May, many weeks after the producers held a press conference announcing that fact. Then last week came another item, this time so garbled that it was impossible to be sure what it meant. Under the headline "Working OT," it read in part: "Unlike New York, the same cast will do double duty at the Royal George next month by working each production of Kushner's two plays in the Angels series--Millenium Approaches and Perestroika--on alternating nights." The item was apparently meant to note that both parts of the two-part production will open at the same time in Chicago, while in New York there was a six-month lag between the opening of Millenium Approaches and that of Perestroika, to allow Kushner to rewrite the second part. But since last October the Broadway cast has also worked overtime, so to speak, performing both plays in repertory.
Flores Strikes Again
Playwright, producer, and director Michael Flores, whose theater piece Andy Warhol: The Factory Years flopped at Cafe Voltaire earlier this summer, returns to the same space September 23 with The Good Time Girls. Unlike the Warhol piece, which Flores claims he labored over for months, the new play was written quickly and deals with three real-life women--Betty Page, Pamela Des Barres, and Heidi Fleiss--who used their sexuality to advance their careers. Flores succeeded in cutting a deal with the cafe's general manager, Kelley Hazen, to present his new piece in the restaurant's 99-seat basement theater even though the Warhol show abruptly closed three weeks early, leaving Cafe Voltaire with no show in its prime 9 PM weekend performance slot. Flores says he knew the show was in trouble when the audience plummeted from sold-out on opening night to a mere 20 people on the second night of the run. But the main reason for the sudden shuttering, maintains Flores, was the unexpected departure three weeks into the run of lead actor Charles Wimmer, who was cast in the role of Warhol. According to Flores, Wimmer seemed upset by the widespread negative critical reaction and questioned the merit of carrying on with the show. But Wimmer sees things differently: "The show was plagued with unprofessional behavior that [the cast] had gotten tired of." Hazen says she has no qualms about turning the space over to Flores for another production, although this time the show starts at the less prime time of 7 PM. Adds Hazen: "[Flores] is a good salesman, and he dealt quite fairly with us when his actor quit and left him with no alternative."

Lightworkers if you only watch one video, watch this one. Most of you know that the reason there are so few new videos here on this YouTube Channel "Why Is This True?" is because I am now one of the 3 owners of GetWisdom.com and that has become practically a full time job. The theme of the inquiry used here has changed and now we are sharing a very important and critical message that very few people are ready or capable to hear.
Are you one of them?
No more sugar coating or pulling punches or, unfortunately, using an egalitarian notion that just because Everyone Has A Story that theirs will be valuable to the survival of humankind. Yes the survival of humankind.
Things ARE NOT GETTING better and there is no white hat contingent of humans along with their benevolent ET friends coming to save us. That is nonsense and it is a childish notion that wastes the time of well intentioned people, many who are actually starving for the truth.
The time for being afraid or acquiescing is over. Actually, it has been for many, many years, but the good news it is not too late and the better news is that there is something YOU can do now and it WILL be effective.

How often have some of us begun to drink in this nonchalant way, and after the third or fourth, pounded on the bar and said to ourselves, "For God's sake, how did I ever get started again?" Only to have that thought supplanted by "Well, I'll stop with the sixth drink." Or "What's the use anyhow?"
When this sort of thinking is fully established in an individual with alcoholic tendencies, he has probably placed himself beyond human aid, and unless locked up, may die or go permanently insane. These stark and ugly facts have been confirmed by legions of alcoholics throughout history.
There is a solution. Almost none of us liked the self-searching, the leveling of our pride, the confession of shortcomings which the process requires for its successful consummation. But we saw that it really worked in others, and we had come to believe in the hopelessness and futility of life as we had been living it. When, therefore, we were approached by those in whom the problem had been solved, there was nothing left for us but to pick up the simple kit of spiritual tools laid at our feet.
The great fact is just this, and nothing less: That we have had deep and effective spiritual experiences which have revolutionized our whole attitude toward life, toward our fellows and toward God's universe. The central fact of our lives today is the absolute certainty that our Creator has entered into our hearts and lives, and has commenced to accomplish those things for us which we could never do by ourselves.
If you are as seriously alcoholic as we were, we believe there is no middle-of-the-road solution. We were in a position where life was becoming impossible, and if we had passed into the region from which there is no return through human aid, we had but two alternatives: One was to go on to the bitter end, blotting out the consciousness of our intolerable situation as best we could; and the other, to accept spiritual help. This we did because we honestly wanted to, and were willing to make the effort. (to be continued next week)

SMT Scharf steps up its South American Sales
With the founding of a sales company in Chile, SMT Scharf AG is moving even closer to South American customers in the non-coal mining segment. The company's registration and launch will complete in March 2017.
Hans Joachim Theiss, CEO of SMT Scharf AG, comments: "We're distinguished by the fact that we have strong sales teams directly in our target markets and are in regular contact with our customers locally. We accompany our customers with innovative ideas across the entire product lifecycle. From our own sales hub in Chile, we will now be even better able to leverage the potential South American hard rock mining offers, such as in copper mines. With special machines for block cave mining, we also see follow-up potential with existing customers that we can now address even better than before."
Marketing in South America has occurred through a sales partner to date. By repositioning its sales organisation, SMT Scharf is also transferring its localisation principle – which has proved itself in other mining regions – to the South American market, which offers major future sales potential, especially in metals mining. SMT Scharf's organic growth is to be driven through tapping further geographic markets. The other pillars of the growth strategy include external growth such as the sales partnership in tunnel construction with Mühlhäuser, as well as boosting operative excellence, including through intensifying international collaboration within the SMT Scharf Group, for example. SMT Scharf aims to acquire a position of strength through measures in these three strategic areas to participate to an above-average extent from the mining upturn while at the same time becoming less susceptible to the cyclicality of the mining equipment business.
"We know our markets very well and we have many years' experience with the local sales and after-sales business. We see an opportunity to make use of this core competency in the future via sales partnerships with third parties, or as part of further new joint ventures," adds Theiss.

Today, we're rolling back the clocks to 1892 to look at one of the first studies that kicked off the performance nutrition world…
The study was entitled 'The value of sugar and the effect of smoking on muscular work'.
From this title alone, we can get an idea of where this is going…and 128 years later, we're still saying the same fucking thing. lol.
I.e. that carbohydrate enhances exercise performance and that smoking probably isn't the best for performance.
To test this, a professor by the name of Vaughan Harley carried out several experiments on himself. He investigated how the following diets impacted;
– The amount of weight he could lift before becoming fatigued.
– The amount of work accomplished in 30 muscular contractions.
The 5 diets were:
Diet A) Fasting
Diet B) Fasting + 500g of sugar
Diet C) Normal diet
Diet D) Normal diet + 500g sugar
Diet E) Normal diet + 4 cigars
For reference, the 'normal diet' was as follows:
8am: 2 rusks, cup of coffee with milk and no sugar.
2.30pm: Soup and bread, beef steak with vegetables, omelette with 0.25 litres of red wine and a small black coffee.
7pm: Fried sole, roast beef with veggies, quail and salad, peaches, bread, 0.25 litres of red wine and a small black coffee.
It's safe to say that his diet wasn't 'optimal' for performance, but still…here were his findings:
1) 'Muscular exhaustion caused by fasting disappears immediately when taking on food' – i.e. fasting sucks when looking to perform.
2) 'It appears as if the will had to be trained to immediately yield its maximum nerve stimulus' – i.e. mind muscle connection and appropriate level of arousal is needed for max performance.
3) 'Nearly 60g of the amount taken would be absorbed in the first hour' – i.e. 60g of a single source carb is the max we can absorb/hour.
4) 'Onset of fatigue was retarded by the taking of 500 grams of sugar' – Carbs were king in 1892, and they still are today!
5) 'Sugar should no longer be regarded as a mere condiment but looked upon as one of the most useful articles of food' – i.e. Fuel for the work required.
6) 'Although not conclusive, smoking perhaps slightly diminishes muscular power and hastens the onset of fatigue' – i.e. it's still very bad for your health though…
Here's my take on all this…
Back in 1892, this was seen as very groundbreaking stuff, and it's taken over 100 years of research to get a pretty comprehensive understanding of this.
Think of it this way, despite a century of research showing the benefits of carbs and the detriments of fasting on performance, athletes still want to try keto and continue to massively under eat/fast when looking to perform.
So, when you ask what the lowedown is for a brand new supplement or strategy with only 1 or 2 studies to back it…we probably need a few more before we can be certain.

Hanif Kureishi: 'I haven't read anything by Jane Austen. My shame is big'
The book I am currently reading
The Age of Anger by Pankaj Mishra. He uses Nietzsche's Genealogy of Morals to help understand why everyone is so pissed off these days. He has a good theory, the Nietzschean idea of resentment – the fury of people who are excluded – and uses this to talk about radical Islam and Brexit. You could also apply it to Trump.
The book that changed my life
James Baldwin's The Fire Next Time. As a teenager from a mixed race background, I struggled with issues of race and identity and Baldwin had related all this to the race politics of his day. It gave me ideas of what I might write.
The book I wish I'd written
Frederick Seidel's collected poems – they always make me laugh and they always move me. As I get older I read more and more poetry.
The book that influenced my writing
Jack Kerouac's On the Road. When I was a teenager and read it in my bedroom in Bromley, I thought this was a book for now – leaving the inheritance of the postwar settlement and making a new world. It inspired me.
The book that is most underrated
I recently found a wonderful book by Georges Simenon in a secondhand bookshop. It's called The Train, and is about a man cut off from his family in Belgium at the outbreak of the war who begins a relationship with a woman he meets on a train. It's about the fracturing of war and the possibility of love. Because of Maigret, people write Simenon off as a formulaic writer. To me he's as good as Camus.

project creation in Gemini 5
In Gemini 5, can a user associated with a group (manager, developer, etc) create a project? I believe only administrator can create a project. If I am wrong can you point me towards the document where I can find more information. Thanks.

Issue date: 13 March 2015
UWE Bristol's Professor Madge Dresser is to give a walking tour of the collection galleries at the Tate Britain, as part of the gallery's, 'Meet Tate Britain' event series.
The talk and tour, which will take place on Monday the 16th of March, 18:30 to 20:00, will examine and trace the connections between some of the works in the Tate collection and Britain's role in the Atlantic slave economy, such as the correlation between the slave trade, Empire and the British country house.
Professor Dresser, Royal Historical Society Fellow and Associate Professor in Social and Cultural British History at UWE Bristol, says, "Tate Britain's wonderful collection of British Art affords us both aesthetic pleasure and insights into Britain's history. I will be discussing selected paintings from the late seventeenth to the early nineteenth centuries to see what they can tell us about to slavery, race and the black presence in Britain."
To book tickets for this unique event, please visit the Tate Britain event pages.

We are all tired of wearing headphones sometimes. But playing music out loud can bring much inconvenience to other people in the room. So we would like to build an indoor device to enable a zero-weight, contact-free and personalizable audio experience which is only audible to one person in a certain range of 3D space.
Acoustic Phantom is a directional speaker system with object recognition and real-time tracking. With this speaker, the sound will follow the designated user and only this user however he moves. Users can register themselves with our system and play audios wirelessly.
Persistently track and beam directional sound to a specific user in the room.
User can use the smartphone app to interact with the system via WiFi/Bluetooth (e.g. initiate tracking and play music).
Memorize the user's settings and preferences when he/she re-enters the room.
Perform its functionality when components are placed in different locations of the room or in another room.
Raspberry Pi compatible wide angle HD webcam that transmits video data to the RPi via CSI bus.
A Soundlazer directional speaker that uses ultrasonic waves to transmit audio to some user in a beam of sound.
The pan-tilt platform holds the camera, the speaker and the RPi, and is driven by two servos which are controlled by the PWM signals sent from the RPi.
A Raspberry Pi is responsible for running CV algorithms, communicating with iOS app, controlling platform servos, and outputting audio to the speaker.
We use OpenGL in C++ to perform multiple color tracking, and OpenCV to track larger features.
An iOS app is used to turn on/off the system, complete the registration steps and performing AirPlay by communicating with RPi (sending/receiving commands and data).
A research group at Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology has developed a similar system called the "Shadow Sound System" which achieved user tracking via a webcam mounted on a raised pan-tilt platform. Captured video stream is sent to a laptop for computer vision processing, and the resulting movement commands are sent to an Arduino for servoing the speaker.
This company is also developing products including musical interface controllers based on computer vision, directional speakers and mobile applications. However, the company's current products only include directional speakers and sets of directional speakers and sensors.

Southern-Style Collard Greens
You won't believe how good collard greens are until you've tried Southern-Style Collard Greens. We're sharing our secret to the very best way to make them.
Collard greens are a staple at any southern table and it's easy to see why once you try this recipe. Quite honestly, the whole country should get involved. We'll say it again just in case you didn't already learn this from our Creamy Kale and Bacon dish. Any vegetable dish that has bacon in the recipe is worth making, but this has even more savory craveable ingredients. I mean, bacon, apple cider vinegar, garlic – isn't your mouth watering just thinking about it?
The perfect collard greens dish is tender, smoky, savory, a bit sweet and a touch spicy. We find that it's best to prepare this in a Dutch oven or large stock pot. That way you can brown the bacon bits in the same pan that you cook the greens in for added flavor.
We also add some maple syrup and hot sauce to bring a sweet heat to the dish. To easily cut the greens, we recommend cutting out the stems, then washing the greens well and chiffonading them like you would basil. It makes it simple. Your family is sure to love this dish, and you'll be happy they're eating their greens.Print
Southern-Style Collard Greens
You won't believe how good collard greens are until you've tried Southern-Style Collard Greens. We're sharing our secret to the very best way to make them.
- Prep Time: 15 minutes
- Cook Time: 2 hours, 10 minutes
- Total Time: 2 hours 25 minutes
- Yield: 4
- 1 lb. collard greens
- 1/5 lb. (approx. 5 slices) bacon, diced
- 1 onion, diced
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 Tbsp. apple cider vinegar
- 1 and 1/2 cups unsalted chicken stock
- 1 Tbsp. maple syrup
- 10–12 dashes hot sauce (like Tabasco), plus more for serving
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1/2 tsp. black pepper
- Start by washing and drying the collard green leaves well. Cut the thick stem out of each of the leaves and discard. Roll the collards up so you have a log of leaves and slice into ribbons or chiffonade. Set the collard greens on a paper towel to dry fully while you cook the bacon.
- Dice the bacon and place it into a pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Brown the bacon, remove it from the pot and set it on a paper towel to drain.
- While the bacon cooks, dice the onion and mince the garlic. When the bacon is cooked, leave the grease in the pan and sauté the diced onion for about 5 minutes or until it starts to brown. Add the garlic and collard greens and cook for one minute before deglazing the pan with the apple cider vinegar. Add the chicken stock, maple syrup, hot sauce, salt, black pepper and the cooked bacon. Stir and bring the pot to a boil. Cover and cook for about 2 hours until the greens are tender. Serve hot!
