King Mosiah consults with the people about who they want for their king. They want his son Aaron, who has left to preach the gospel to the Lamanites. Mosiah sends out a declaration, saying that none of his sons want the kingdom. He fears “there would rise contentions among you” (7) if he confers the rule upon someone else, then later one of his sons comes back and desires it. He is identifying problems that could arise and trying to solve them before they happen.
“Now I say unto you let us be wise and consider these things…” (8)
Am I wise and consider the consequences of my actions before I do them?
And now let us be wise and look forward to these things, and do that which will make for the peace of this people.”Mosiah 29:10
Wise people do that which will bring peace. Am I seeking peace?
Mosiah outlines the idea of a political systems of judges, instead of a king.
…And we will newly arrange the affairs of this people, for we will appoint wise men to be judges, that will judge this people according to the commandments of God.”Mosiah 29:11
He goes on to say, “If it were possible that you could have just men to be your kings, who would establish the laws of God, and judge this people according to his commandments, yea, if ye could have men for your kings who would do even as my father Benjamin did for this people—I say unto you, if this could always be the case then it would be expedient that ye should always have kings to rule over you.” (13)
But all men are not just, as was seen with king Noah, and “behold, how much iniquity doth one wicked king cause to be committed, yea, and what great destruction.” (17)
Wickedness brings bondage. One bad king can lead a people down to destruction.
And were it not for the interposition of their all-wise Creator, and this because of their sincere repentance, they must unavoidably remain in bondage until now.
But behold, he did deliver them because they did humble themselves before him; and because they cried mightily unto him he did deliver them out of bondage; and thus doth the Lord work with his power in all cases among the children of men, extending the arm of mercy towards them that put their trust in him.”Mosiah 29:19-20
Trusting in God and repenting brings power into our lives that we otherwise would not have.
Mosiah outlines why a wicked leader brings about so much misery.
He “has his friends in iniquity, and he keepeth his guards about him; and he teareth up the laws of those who have reigned in righteousness before him; and he trampleth under his feet the commandments of God.
And he enacteth laws, and sendeth them forth among his people, yea, laws after the manner of his own wickedness; and whosoever doth not obey his laws he causeth to be destroyed; and whosoever doth rebel against him he will send his armies against them to war, and if he can he will destroy them; and thus an unrighteous king doth pervert the ways of all righteousness.”Mosiah 29:22-23
Mosiah warns us not to let such abominations come upon us. Then he gives this wisdom:
Now it is not common that the voice of the people desireth anything contrary to that which is right; but it is common for the lesser part of the people to desire that which is not right; therefore this shall ye observe and make it your law—to do business by the voice of the people.”Mosiah 29:26
Mosiah sets up a system of judges, with checks and balances. He wanted “that this inequality should be no more in this land, especially among this my people; but I desire that this land be a land of liberty, and every man may enjoy his rights and privileges alike…” (32)
He wants more equality, instead of all the sins being answered upon one man—the king. He wants “the burden should come upon all the people, that ever man might bear his part.” (34)
After he sends out his words, his people are convinced of his argument.
Therefore they relinquished their desires for a king, and became exceedingly anxious that every man should have an equal chance throughout all the land; yea, and every man expressed a willingness to answer for his own sin.”Mosiah 29:38
They yearned for personal responsibility.
Do I take responsibility for my actions, or do I try to justify my sins or blame others for my misery?
Mosiah’s people cast their votes, every man in the land, for who will be their judges. Because Mosiah gave them a better system of freedom and responsibility, they loved him.
And they did wax strong in love towards Mosiah; yea, they did esteem him more than any other man; for they did not look upon him as a tyrant who was seeking for gain, yea, for that lucre which doth corrupt the soul; for he had not exacted riches of them, neither had he delighted in the shedding of blood; but he had established peace in the land, and he had granted unto his people that they should be delivered from all manner of bondage; therefore they did esteem him, yea, exceedingly, beyond measure.”Mosiah 29:40
Am I a wise steward over my family, and over my responsibilities? Do I consider problems that could arise from different choices and try to avoid those, so that peace may exist in my life? | <urn:uuid:6c9a3fc0-6177-4e59-8a11-b1d611e67cf9> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://thatwhichbringsjoy.com/2020/05/25/mosiah-29-be-wise-consider/ | 2020-09-22T15:02:36Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400206133.46/warc/CC-MAIN-20200922125920-20200922155920-00409.warc.gz | en | 0.983302 | 1,211 |
DEFINITION OF AN ANGEL
Definition of an Angel. Over time Angels evolved as protagonists of a new era for Humankind that became known as ‘The Age of Evolution’ during which time several major advancements were made, the most significant being the exploration and development of a dense area of space that later became known as The Universe. Nowadays Angels are people who are recruited from the Universe and beyond to work as humanitarians wherever there is a need for their unique methods of evolution, synchronization and protection.
Angels are chosen for their resilience, compassion, vision, integrity, versatility and ingenuity. Angels are put through a vigorous training program that lasts two years followed by a comprehensive internship where they are placed in what can best be described as boot camps for a further two years. Before they graduate angels are required to participate in multiple assignments that are closely monitored by their commanding officers. During these assignments angels are assessed for their overall performance and for their ability to work under extreme pressure.
The life of an Angel is one of great fulfillment and enjoyment, but it also involves periods of extreme stress whenever they are sent on long assignments that last several decades away from loved ones.

NON-STOP – Film Review
Having recently been intellectually challenged by heavyweight cinematic offerings such as 12 Years a Slave (2013), The Wolf of Wall Street (2013) and The Lego Movie (2014), I decided to go see Liam Neeson’s latest actioner for a change of pace and mood. Indeed, Non-Stop (2014) wears its’ B-movie credentials proudly and passes as very serviceable entertainment if you don’t want to have to think too hard for 106 minutes.
**CONTAINS CLIPS & SPOILERS**
The story is an intriguing one. Bill Marks (Neeson) – identikit tragi-alcoholic-cop with bereaved past – is a US Air Marshal responsible for flight security. However, this journey is going to be a very bumpy ride as one mysterious passenger has it in for Bill. The baddie is going to kill someone on the plane every 20 minutes if their demands aren’t met. This plays out with a great deal of suspense and Neeson fighting against the clock to save lives as death comes-a-knocking. The claustrophobic nature of the setting really cranks up the tension and there’s a neat little twist as Marks’ himself becomes the main suspect.
The film opens slowly establishing all the players and as it progresses it reminded me of an Agatha Christie mystery with Neeson playing rugged, brutish and ever-more frantic detective. It’s great fun as the criminal gives Marks the runaround as they kill off passengers in some imaginative ways. Everyone becomes a suspect and the plot deftly keep you guessing with misdirection as your suspicions move from one character to another. It reminded me of another decent B-movie I saw last year Red Riding Hood (2011). In all honesty the film falls apart slightly at the end with a mildly ridiculous reveal that’s masked during the rip-roaring final set-piece. But overall I enjoyed this unpretentious movie helmed by the very competent genre director Jaume Collet-Serra.
The main asset of Non-Stop is an excellent cast notably one of my favourite actresses – the stunning Julianne Moore. Moore, Corey Stoll, Linus Roache, Scoot McNairy add some quality in support to the main man: Liam Neeson. The tough Irishman rises above some silly dialogue and clichéd characters as he once again proves himself an excellent action hero. Who would have thought the star of historical epics such as Michael Collins (1996), Schindler’s List (1993) would’ve carved out a latter-day career as an ass-kicking tough guy. But he’s always mixed it up throughout his career appearing in big budget blockbusters and lower budget movies.
Interestingly, Neeson is reportedly have turned down the role of James Bond in the 1990s. Which is a shame because as he demonstrated in massive sleeper hit Taken (2008), really good Euro-thriller Unknown (2011) and Non-Stop (2013) he is a magnetic presence on screen, someone who you root for and also very decent in a punch-up. While socio-politicists may argue Taken was xenophobic and tapped into a subconscious fear of foreigners – who really cares! Sometimes you just want to watch a film where a bloke built like a brick shithouse beats the crap out of a load of bad guys! And Neeson does this with aplomb in Non-Stop, but this time it’s wrapped in a murder mystery whodunnit set in the mile-high club. | <urn:uuid:6b352206-2aa2-4821-9ccf-5d350a53e9fd> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://thecinemafix.com/2014/03/09/non-stop-film-review-by-paul-laight/ | 2020-09-22T14:16:17Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400206133.46/warc/CC-MAIN-20200922125920-20200922155920-00409.warc.gz | en | 0.945058 | 752 |

The Public Access scheme allows members of the Public, and commercial and non-commercial organisations to instruct Barristers directly on most matters.
We have Barristers with a broad range of expertise and experience to cover a variety of cases and budgetary requirements.
The Barrister’s role remains essentially the same as when they are approached by a solicitor and they can advise you on your legal status or rights. Barristers can assist in drafting correspondence for you to send and can represent you in court, tribunals or mediations. Barristers can also negotiate on your behalf and can attend employment or investigative interviews and hearings where appropriate.
We are happy to discuss your enquiry with you and assess whether it is suitable for Public Access.
Examples of work Barristers are not allowed to undertake includes: handling your money, corresponding with the other side, issuing court documents on your behalf, contacting witnesses or collecting and investigating evidence. For further information, please see the Guidance for Barristers on Conducting Litigation from the Bar Standards Board.
If we're unable to take on your case, we may be able to point you in the direction of a solicitor or other organisation who can help.
As a guide, paperwork and advisory work takes anywhere between 7 - 28 days depending on a number of factors including:
However, shorter deadlines may be achievable. Please make the clerks aware of any impending deadlines so consideration can be given to your timescales when trying to allocate you a Barrister.
Court hearings from issue to a hearing or trial tend to take anywhere between 6 to 24 months excluding any possible appeals.
Public Access is a cost effective, transparent process which allows you to contact a Barrister directly.
Public Access cases are often charged at barristers' commercial hourly rates which are competitive in the legal marketplace. In some cases and where it is appropriate, work may be charged on a fixed fee basis. Fees are dependent upon a number of factors including but not limited to (1) the type of case (2) the complexity (3) the documentation (4) the work involved and (5) the seniority of the Barrister.
As a guide you could typically expect to pay the following rates per hour according to level of Call:
|QC||£400 - £600|
|20 years plus||£275 - £400|
|10-15 years||£200 - £275|
|7 – 10 years||£175 - £200|
|3 – 5 years||£125 - £175|
|Second Six Pupil – 3 years||£80 - £125|
Please note, all information is correct as of 2020, but our hourly rates as set out above are estimates for information only. For a quote, please contact the clerks on 0161 955 9000. All our fees are exclusive of VAT.
There will be no hidden additional costs. Any additional costs will be agreed and set out clearly in the client care letter provided to you. The most likely additional cost is reasonable travel expenses where a hearing or meeting is in a court or area outside of Manchester City Centre.
Under the Public Access Scheme, our fees are paid in full prior to the Barrister carrying out any work.
You should complete the Public Access Inquiry Form and email it to the relevant inbox (see below). This will then be forwarded on your behalf to a Public Access Barrister in the relevant practice area for review. If we are able to accept your case we will send you a client care letter setting out what work we will do and the cost for doing so.
Only when you have given your agreement, by returning a signed copy of the client care letter and forwarding payment will the agreed work begin.
If it’s about Public Access work, in the first instance you should contact us by email to the relevant inbox using the Public Access Inquiry Form (see below).
If you need to speak to one of our clerking team, you can reach us on 0161 955 9000. Our opening hours are between 9am and 6pm (Monday to Friday).

Galway Bay Sailing Club has been selected to host the National Disabled Sailing Championships next year in recognition of its successful Access sailing programme for young people with disabilities.
And this weekend John Twomey, a 10 time Paralympian and president of the International Disabled Federation, will visit Galway Bay Sailing Club to watch the club’s Access sailors competing in the first GBSC Access Autumn Series.
Members of the Galway Speeders, a sports club for young people with physical disability, have been taking to the water in the first series of races for disabled sailors, using the Hansa 303 dingies. The fleet of youth sailors have participated in the national Hansa event in Dun Laoghaire.
This increased activity is facilitated by a group of volunteers from Galway Bay Sailing Club, many of whom are still in school and college. The club also provides rescue, craft, and storage of the fleet of Hansa dingies. The Irish Sailing Association has provided some of the Hansa boats as has Tralee Sailing Club. The renovation of the Renville Pier and the addition of a new large slipway by Galway County Council some years back has had a significant impact on the ability of this group to access the Bay.
The Galway Speeders are beginning a fundraising campaign to provide a personnel hoist that can be used at Renville Slip and other sailing venues in Galway to transfer the sailors in and out of the boats more easily. | <urn:uuid:cf84a8aa-8471-42d2-8a89-d2139bd37a57> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.advertiser.ie/galway/article/64512/galway-sailing-clubs-access-programme-rewarded-with-national-championships?utm_source=more&utm_medium=web&utm_campaign=readmore | 2020-09-22T14:14:01Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400206133.46/warc/CC-MAIN-20200922125920-20200922155920-00409.warc.gz | en | 0.953213 | 301 |

Frequently Asked Questions
What factors influenced your decision to give to Blue, Orange and You?
Hearing first hand from the scholarship recipients inspires me to give to the Blue, Orange and You campaign. It’s rewarding to see the direct impact my donation makes in helping students reach their education goals. Mostly, I want to pay it forward because as a Boise State alum and a first-generation student from rural Parma Idaho, scholarships allowed me complete a University degree.
Is there a specific instance or student who inspired you to address this need?
I know there is a strong need to build the scholarship foundation for our current and future students. Boise State is still such a young University founded in 1932, my mom is 3 years older! There is a lot of need for scholarship dollars and I am so proud to help make a contribution.
What do you hope the long term impact of your gift will be?
I know my financial contributions will make an impact for a student to be able to spend more time studying, doing research, or participating in volunteer opportunities in our community. We know that Boise State students work part-time to help pay for their education, but if they can get scholarships instead, they will be able to focus on their studies and finish their degree in a more timely manner. Every semester that a student delays graduation due to not having enough money costs them and our greater community in lost wages at a professional level.
If you could say one thing to encourage a colleague to make a donation of any size what would it be?
Making a contribution to the Boise State scholarship of any size will make a huge impact for a student who made the decision to pursue a degree beyond high school. When you make a donation, you are showing that you believe in the student’s success, and this in turn, builds their confidence. You have an opportunity to impact generational change, especially with Idaho students who tend to be the first in their family to go to college.
What is your favorite thing about working at Boise State or the Boise State community in general?
My favorite thing about working at Boise State is seeing the strategic growth in the past 30 years; additional academic programs, the new Engineering, Physics, Art and housing buildings. I work in Extended Studies, a department that leads in collaborative partnerships with academic departments and the greater community. Our location is ideal, Boise State sits in downtown Boise, both students and employees are able to take advantage of a thriving outdoor lifestyle.
Matching Your Work with the Right Partner
We work to match Boise State’s scholarship, innovation and outreach with the missions and aspirations of philanthropic foundations. we can assist you with the entire funding process; identifying potential funders, relationship development including campus visits, proposal writing, university policies and procedures, and reporting. | <urn:uuid:d0e885ad-5093-4865-b0f9-5f27869b8836> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.boisestate.edu/giving/ways/blue-orange-and-you/ | 2020-09-22T14:56:51Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400206133.46/warc/CC-MAIN-20200922125920-20200922155920-00409.warc.gz | en | 0.943707 | 899 |

Kareena Kapoor Khan says that Salman Khan starring Dabangg 3 and her next outing with Akshay Kumar, Good News, are two different films with different audiences, so there can be no comparison between the two. Kareena Kapoor Khan was interacting with media on the sidelines of AROI and AIR Radio4Child Awards III in association with UNICEF here in Mumbai.
Good News, starring Kareena Kapoor Khan, Akshay Kumar, Diljit Dosanjh and Kiara Advani is releasing within one week of Salman Khan starrer Danagg 3.
Talking about Good News and Dabangg 3, Kareena Kapoor Khan said, “Good News will release in December. I think it is a very good film and the cast is also very exciting. There is Diljit Dosanjh, Akshay Kumar and Kiara Advani, and of course, I am there too. So four amazing actors are there and people can expect a fun ride for sure”
“Our films are releasing one week after, and above all there is no comparison between Dabangg 3 and Good News, as both are different kind of films. Our audiences are very different” added Kareena.
Talking about her association with UNICEF and Every Child Alive initiative, Kareena said, “I have done a lot of work with Unicef, but with this campaign, Every Child Alive, this is closest it can get to my heart because now after becoming a mother, giving birth to Taimur, I think a feeling of responsibility comes automatically to spread the message about protecting your child. Keeping every child alive, I think it is a natural association, it is something that I wanted to do from within”
Kareena will be joining the shoot of Angrezi Medium with Irrfan Khan and Radhika Madan in Mumbai on May 15 and then will head to London for the shoot. Also, she will be making her debut on the small screen as a judge of the dance reality show, Dance India Dance. Apart from all this, Kareena also has Karan Johar’s period film, Takht starring Ranveer Singh, Alia Bhatt, Vicky Kaushal, Bhumi Pednekar, Janhvi Kapoor and Anil Kapoor. | <urn:uuid:484ae833-e1dd-4fa2-8be6-0dd73cf3a617> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.businesssandesh.in/good-news-and-dabangg-3-are-different-films-kareena-kapoor-khan/ | 2020-09-22T13:15:37Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400206133.46/warc/CC-MAIN-20200922125920-20200922155920-00409.warc.gz | en | 0.959624 | 484 |
9 Chinese New Year Traditions to Up Your Gambling Luck
The Chinese New Year is almost upon us and it is a time when gambling is more popular than ever with those celebrating. Chinese culture does hold a number of traditions when it comes to gambling, so if you want to improve your luck the traditional way, here’s how.
Wear Red Underwear
The phrase ‘lucky pants’ is often used as a throw away gag by individuals that experience an extreme case of fortune.
In Chinese culture, it’s more than just a saying. The older generations in China genuinely believe that the color red is lucky and so they wear red wherever possible and that includes wearing red underwear.
After all, you can never have too much luck on your side.
Feed the Ghost and You Will Score
In soccer, there is a famous song that revolves around the former Manchester City striker Shaun Goater. The chant claimed that if you ‘feed the goat and he will score!’. The Goat was the player’s nickname. For Chinese gamblers, it is more a case of feeding the ghost than the goat.
Legend has it that behind every casino table there is a baby ghost. Yep, that sounds pretty terrifying when you think about it…
The theory is that if you feed the ghost with sugar then it will win favor with the ghost and bring good luck. On the flip side, if you choose to shun the baby ghost then it will bring you bad luck.
Have fun sleeping thinking about that prospect.
One of the traditions that often brings a smile to the face of onlookers is the use of the term “Deng!” or “Ding!” when Chinese players are at the baccarat tables.
This tradition has been passed across generations and the words must be spoken prior to the playing cards even being opened.
It is similar to smashing a champagne bottle against the side of a ship prior to its maiden voyage. The thinking behind it is that it will bring good luck to all those that use those cards.
Pray to the Gods Before Gambling
This might not be a ritual that is specific to just the Chinese but it is one that’s very important within their culture.
Chinese gamblers pray to the Gods before a trip to the casino in order to encourage good fortune. Sometimes they may even make an offering as a show of good faith.
We’re not talking about a sacrificial lamb or child here, more like a basket of fruit or a cake.
If you have ever gambled at a casino, you know the golden rule – never touch the cards.
In Chinese culture, when gambling at New Year, it is also important to never touch the person gambling.
Just leave them be and keep your hands to yourself, thank you very much.
Don’t Count Money at the Tables
This is probably considered more to do with good manners than anything else but the Chinese believe that counting your money after a win or loss is not the done thing at the tables.
Let’s be honest, if you’re counting how much you’ve won after a lucky hand in front of the player that just lost, you lack class.
Always remember, there is always somebody better off than you but there is also always somebody worse off too.
No Sex Before Gambling
In the 1976 Oscar-winning movie Rocky, veteran trainer Mickey Goldmill warns the boxer that women weaken legs. This is clearly something that has been transferred to gambling over the Chinese New Year.
It is considered unwise for gamblers to participate in sex a short period of time before gambling. This is likely down to the fact that serious gambling requires stamina, patience, focus, and discipline.
All of those attributes become jeopardized after some bump and grind. It’s understandable, really.
The concept of beginner’s luck is that the first bet can return a big win that isn’t necessarily expected or deserved. Over the Chinese New Year, the curse of an early significant win is one Chinese players are very wary of.
It is recommended that gamblers avoid betting big and targeting the huge pay outs too early. After all, winning such a large amount early on can open the players up to equally large losses.
Winning or losing small amounts here and there is more preferable. Save the peak wins for the right time. Not too early.
Don’t Wash the Lucky Hands
One of the less hygienic traditions within Chinese culture over New Year is the attitude towards hand cleaning when gambling.
Chinese gamblers believe that washing hands can have a huge impact on luck. If players are experiencing a bad run of luck then they will wash their hands to try and rinse the bad fortune off their skin.
If Chinese players are on a good run of results then they will not wash their hands for the duration of this lucky spell. No matter how long it lasts… or what they do with their hands.
You might want to wear gloves the next time you touch those casino cards because that is certainly not a superstition restricted to the China. | <urn:uuid:3a52df80-e49e-4d3c-8997-5d2ac4feadea> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.casino.org/blog/9-chinese-new-year-traditions-to-up-your-gambling-luck/ | 2020-09-22T14:25:33Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400206133.46/warc/CC-MAIN-20200922125920-20200922155920-00409.warc.gz | en | 0.950471 | 1,064 |

However, the chart makes it clear that other factors, besides earnings are also taken into consideration when creating the list.
This year Winfrey returnes to her rightful place.
And while it is unknown exactly what those factors are – marketability, social media presence and entrepreneurial decisions are thought to be among them – Winfrey’s handling of the nosedive her OWN network took in the last two years, as well as her management of the rest of her media empire, including O Magazine, a network on Sirius XM and shows by protégés like Dr Phil means that she once again fits the bill. Winfrey made $77 million last year, down significantly from $165 million for the same period last year. That’s still a lot of money though, even for the entertainment industry, and the media empress is set to increase said profits in the coming year, as her newly rebuilt OWN network is predicted to begin turning a profit by the end of 2013. This year, OWN has undergone a complete overhaul, cutting out unprofitable project and replacing them with original programming, created by Winfrey herself with the help of Tyler Perry – another Forbes 100 staple.

Zum reacts to spooky things in different ways. He stops and freezes. He tenses up. He jumps sideways or backwards.Or he runs in a panic. I am introducing him to spooky things gradually. With familiarization and repetition, he is accepting scary things without fear. It took him lots of lessons but he now accepts a frightening blue tarp! He steps on it and he even lets me put the tarp on his back. I reward him for being brave with a rest break, a loose rein, a scratch on the withers, a rub on the forehead and lots of praise in a soothing voice! | <urn:uuid:c20e5d9f-53e2-4e4d-9561-7b6787a71855> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.goddesspower.com/2019/08/spooky/ | 2020-09-22T14:34:15Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400206133.46/warc/CC-MAIN-20200922125920-20200922155920-00409.warc.gz | en | 0.97445 | 128 |
It’s simple to pin specific items to the Taskbar that you want quick access to. In fact, this is one of the handier options because it allows simple access to the apps you use the most often.
However, what about the Notification area (the section at the right side next to the clock)? You can control what shows up there, too. Here’s a look at how to do it.
Choose System Icons in Windows 10
First, go to Settings > Personalization > Taskbar. Then scroll down, and under the Notification area section and select Turn system icons on or off.
Then on the next screen is where you can turn system icons on or off, including Action Center (which some people have no use for).
What is your opinion of removing some of the system icons from the Taskbar? Do you turn some of them off? Leave a comment and tell us your thoughts. | <urn:uuid:7a33b43e-1a83-46c7-92bf-9630748df1c1> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.groovypost.com/howto/windows-10-tip-choose-which-icons-appear-in-system-tray/ | 2020-09-22T13:57:56Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400206133.46/warc/CC-MAIN-20200922125920-20200922155920-00409.warc.gz | en | 0.923431 | 190 |

IAI Nesher/Dagger, Monograph 68 from Kagero, via Casemate
Title: Mirage III
Author: Salvador Mafe Huertas
Another excellent new Monograph from Kagero, and this will be of special interest to anyone who studies the Falklands War of 1982, though I should say it does go beyond that as well. A 144-page softcover book, in addition to the Argentine Air Force service, the Israeli and Spanish use of the varnats are also included.
The book tells us the story of the Mirage in Argentine air force service, a service life whihc lasted 43. After the first batch of Mirage III airframes were delivered in September 1972, they were finally retired in 2015, with a celebratory fly-past. The story tells us how the first came into service, followed by additional variants which were supplied by IAI (Israeli Aircraft Industries). These were Israeli built versions of the Mirage V, known with their modifications as the Dagger and the Finger. They performed well during the Falklands conflict, and with additional aircraft, went on to serve for many more years.
As well as the details of their acquisition, training, operating squadrons, but there is also coverage of their use in combat, with a number of personal accounts from Argentine pilots who flew them against the British Task Force in the Falklands War. Among the numerous photos are plenty that show them during the war, and also including camera gun still in their attacks on various Royal Navy warships. While the Argentine use of the aircraft takes up most of the book, there are also shorter sections covering their use by both the Israeli and Spanish air forces. With colour and black & white pictures illustrating the story throughout the book, there are more plus weapons fit and gunsight diagrams plus 4 pages and the back cover with fine colour profiles
Another excellent Monograph in the series from Kagero and one I found interesting especially for hearing the memories of some Argentine pilots during the Falklands War of 1982, a time I remember well.
The balance of history, archive photos and the profile artwork make this fascinating for the aviation historian and equally good references for modellers, in whatever scale. First class all round.

A white nationalist was convicted of first-degree murder and all other counts Friday after a jury found he intentionally drove his car into a group of counter-protesters at the 2017 “Unite the Right” rally in Virginia, killing Heather Heyer, 32. James Fields Jr., who had been known for idolizing Adolf Hitler, was tried in Charlottesville Circuit Court. Heyer, a paralegal and civil right activists, was one of dozens of people who were marching against the white nationalists. Heather's friend Star Peterson who testified was also hit, breaking her back and both legs, and is still in a wheelchair.

An international community of research institutions, led by Sandia, to advance photovoltaic research and expand solar markets formally launched its work on May 14 in Munich, Germany, with a memorandum of understanding.
Called the Photo-Voltaic Collaborative to Advance Multiclimate Performance and Energy Research, or PV CAMPER, the organization provides a unique platform for studying photovoltaic performance and reliability in multiple, diverse environments and climates, said project lead Laurie Burnham.
“What we’ve created is a network of research-grade field sites around the world that allows members to share data with confidence,” Laurie said. “But PV CAMPER also works because of its collegiality. There’s a trust and camaraderie to the work we’re doing, each learning and building off the other, challenging best practices and collaborating with organizations that share the same values.”
Laurie said the idea for PV CAMPER came out of a meeting in South Korea two years ago, where she presented information about the Regional Test Center program. The RTC, managed by Sandia for DOE, supports studies of emerging solar technologies at multiple U.S. field sites. An impromptu discussion about replicating the RTC concept globally led to the idea for the collaborative, and the core group has expanded from five to 11, with more members likely.
A solar-intensive future PV CAMPER organizations have the common goal of a more solar-intensive future, Laurie said. The umbrella organization will offer:
- A repository of high-fidelity meteorological and PV performance data from geographically and climatically diverse sites.
- Broad expertise in areas of PV research such as soiling losses, the uncertainty drivers impacting solar-energy yields, such as cloud persistence, moisture and airborne particulates, and spectral responsiveness.
- Data to support the design and optimization of PV systems for specific operating environments to increase markets and expand the solar industry.
Member organizations will transmit data daily to a cloud database for access by the collaborative. They also will adopt PV CAMPER baseline characterization and operation and management protocols and participate in collaborative research and development.
PV CAMPER signatory organizations include Sandia; Universidad Federal de Santa Catarina in Brazil; Anhalt University of Applied Sciences, and Fraunhofer Center for Silicon Photovoltaics in Germany; Institut de Recherche en Energie Solaire et Energies Nouvelles in Morocco; Qatar Environment and Energy Research Institute in Qatar; Solar Energy Research Institute of Singapore; and Yeungnam University, Korean Institute for Energy Research and Korea Testing Laboratory in South Korea. Other institutions are lining up to join, Laurie said.
DOE has funded Sandia’s leadership of PV CAMPER for one year, to help get the collaborative off the ground, Laurie said, while the other 10 signatories self-fund their participation and may assume leadership roles in the future.
“What matters is that the consortium is seen as a high-value endeavor by a growing number of institutions and serves as a catalyst for collaboration in the global transition to a low-carbon economy,” she said. | <urn:uuid:37b03308-4ff8-4f01-a179-8a46ee35220a> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.sandia.gov/news/publications/labnews/articles/2019/06-21/PV_CAMPER.html | 2020-09-22T15:31:32Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400206133.46/warc/CC-MAIN-20200922125920-20200922155920-00409.warc.gz | en | 0.912607 | 656 |
I’m starting to wonder if I have too many gadgets. I have the Apple User Trifecta of a MacBook, an iPhone and an iPad—along with a Kindle Paperwhite, a Fitbit, and a bunch of related accessories. To give you a short list: an external keyboard, an iPad stand, a Magic Mouse, a Cosmonaut stylus, a Glif, three pairs of EarPods(?!), a laptop sleeve, and all the attendant hubs, cables, and power supplies. In fact, through no obvious fault of my own, I now have more iPhone charger cubes than I could possibly need.
What are all these things for? My iPhone is a communication device, though far too often only a one-way one as I dive into the various streams. My MacBook is my workhorse. I needed the power to chew on editing and producing hour-plus length podcasts, though with Crush On Radio on hiatus, it’s vastly overpowered for the tasks of writing in plain text, listening to music, and checking Facebook. I stare into this screen all the time, and when I’m not staring into this one, I’m staring into the smaller screen I keep in my pocket, or I stare into the big screen at my office, and occasionally the composition notebook sized screen of my iPad.
The iPad has had the hardest time finding a role in my life. What it’s settled into is being my portable writing machine, which seems a bit of a waste of $499. (At least I already had the bluetooth keyboard.) I take it with me once a week to a writing group, and I occasionally take it into the living room after my girlfriend has gone to sleep. If I’m not using it for writing, it’s a social media device, and maybe an occasional comic reader. That’s it. If I travelled more, it would be useful as a travel computer, but only because my MacBook is a giant 15" non-Retina model. I opted for that over the Air or Retina Pros because I still need to use an optical drive from time to time. If I had a MacBook Air, I don’t know if I’d ever need an iPad.
What are all these things for? So much of it is for everything. I remember in the days before the iPhone, when everyone was preaching about the Convergence of Devices, I remained skeptical that I could just carry one thing that would be my camera, my music player and my phone. This was because all the devices on the market in the early 2000s that promised to be all these things were both far out of the price range of a college student, and sucked at being any of the things they promised. I’d much rather ten tools that do one thing well than one tool that does ten things, but does them to mediocrity.
It’s why I’ve gravitated back to the Kindle for much of my reading. It’s a purpose-built device that sucks if you try to use it for anything other than reading books. A while back, Stephen Hackett ditched his iPhone for a flip phone. I’ve given thought to trying a distraction-free iPhone setup, just to free up the mental clock cycles I spend on Twitter and elsewhere, but I do use the darn thing for legitimate work purposes, which makes that difficult.
A thought that has been running through my head, off and on, for over a year is: “How can I use technology better?” Part of the answer is finding the role of all of this in my life. Nick Wynja’s latest piece had me thinking a lot.
I won’t let a computer tell me what to do. I’m going to choose what I want to do with my life, thank you very much. Then I’m going to do it and not tweet about it and just sit outside with a beer and watch the sun set. Because I’ve missed too many of those sitting in front of this harsh, heartless machine.
One of the differences between Nick and myself is that I like sitting in front of this harsh, heartless machine. It’s how I’m wired. There’s an outside, and there’s experiences, and I can be there and of them, but I keep coming back to the machines because I like them. I like the Internet, and the social media streams, and occasionally diving into a Wikipedia or TVTropes K-Hole.
But, fundamentally, these machines are tools, and their job is to enable us to live the life we want to lead. If that life involves seeing more sunsets, then using technology better means using it less. I don’t care that much about watching sunsets, but some of the things I do care about might just mean using the technology less—or at least being mindful about what, how, and when I use it. The hard part is overcoming that Pavlovian training and the Fear of Missing Out, and use the tools instead of letting them use me.
What are all these things for? To use to our great ends.

There is an urgent need for medical care and welfare for the more than 1,000 domestic elephants living in the region of Phuket, Phang Nga, and nearby provinces.
To serve this need, new Species360 member Southern Thailand Elephant Foundation (STEF) is building the first dedicated elephant hospital in Phang Nga province — and expecting to open by end of year. Meanwhile, STEF is beginning to provide mobile veterinary care in the region.
“The Species360 membership ensures that all members of our veterinary team can easily and securely access information from any of their physical locations in Southern Thailand. ZIMS for Husbandry and ZIMS for Medical provide a great platform for keeping records of each elephant that we provide treatment for, including reference of test results.” – Pattarawan Phumpanna, Veterinarian, Southern Thailand Elephant Foundation
As a member of nonprofit Species360, STEF veterinary and care teams will use the Zoological Information Management System (ZIMS) to access medical resources and record data on elephants in their care.
“On behalf of everyone at Southern Thailand Elephant Foundation, I would like to personally thank Mazuri for their very generous sponsorship of our Species360 membership. Without this financial support, membership would have been difficult for our small conservation center,” said Pattarawan Phumpanna, Veterinarian, Southern Thailand Elephant Foundation.
Species360 would like to extend our thanks to Tan Kit Sun, Senior Conservation Officer at Kadoorie Farm & Botanic Garden, Hong Kong, for helping to connect STEF with the Species360 community, and to Mazuri Animal Nutrition for sponsoring the membership of Southern Thailand Elephant Foundation. | <urn:uuid:10357286-0a95-45a4-aec4-49e016f5bdd9> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.species360.org/2020/07/southern-thailand-elephant-foundation-joins-species360/ | 2020-09-22T14:15:35Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400206133.46/warc/CC-MAIN-20200922125920-20200922155920-00409.warc.gz | en | 0.920657 | 344 |
What's the process?
Financial Planning is a process to help you reach your goals.
It is not just about products or investments, nor is it only for people with lots of money to invest. ..
We will work with you to determine your values - what's really most important to you, and then work with you to meet your goals and dreams.
We go through the following process which ensures we are giving the most valuable and appropriate recommendations.
1. Initial Meeting
Our first meeting is a where we find out what is most important to you. What are your goals, dreams, values, priorities and aspirations in life? What concerns do you have? What are you hoping we can help you with?
At the completion of this meeting we will determine together if our relationship will be a good 'fit' and want to move onto the next steps in the process.
2. Further discovery about you
This is where we get further clarification about where are you now. This allows us to provide the most appropriate advice going forward.
3. Research and strategy planning
Now we know where you are now, and where you want to get to, we take some time to look at all the options that can be considered to help you get there.
We will stay in touch with you during this period if required to make sure we are on the right track.
4. Presentation of your road map
This meeting we will present our strategy to you and explain in detail the recommendations we have made to meet your stated goals. You will have the opportunity to ask any questions, and we can adjust any recommendations if necessary.
5. We assist you to implement any recommendations we have made.
Once you are happy to proceed, we will then implement any recommendations made, including assisting with any application forms and coordinating with any third parties that may be required (ie. Solicitors or Accountant).
You are now a part of the TNS Family. Congratulations, you have made the first step towards achieving the life you dream of.
6. Check-up and ongoing review to ensure everything is going to plan
As awesome as our initial recommendations are, things are constantly changing and your situation will need to be regularly reviewed.
We stay in touch with you to make sure you are still on track to achieving your goals.
The frequency of the reviews will be determined by your individual situation.
Things we can help with
Once we have determined what is most important to you, and what your goals are, some of the most common things we can help with are:
Analysing your superannuation fund(s) and ensuring that it is the best option for your current situation and retirement goals.
This includes looking at the overall structure, associated fees, investment options and any associated insurance options.
We look at strategy options to increase your benefits for retirement and reducing tax where possible.
Personal insurances cover you and your family financially if you are unable to work due to injury, illness or death. If you have debt, financial dependants or earn an income, looking into options for personal insurance is a MUST.
We will help you take control of your income, change your mindset around money and work with you to achieve your goals.
Debt is such a common feature in our lives these days, and we can help you get the most from your current situation, and structure any debt in a way that is most beneficial for you. We look at good and bad debt, home loans, borrowing to invest and ways you can reduce your overall debt.
Once we know what your retirement goals are, we put together strategy recommendations to utilise and superannuation and other assets to get the most from your retirement. We will consider any potential Centrelink benefits and ensure you can live comfortably in retirement not worrying about money.
There are so many investment options, it can be extremely daunting to navigate on your own. Again, what suits one person, does not necessarily suit the next, so it is imperative that any recommendations are designed specifically for you and your goals. Whether your goals are short or long term, or whether you have a lot of money to invest or not much at all, there are investment options for everyone.
What are the fees?
We are a fee for service advice firm, meaning we receive no commissions from investments or superannuation.
This ensures the advice provided is suited to YOU and not based on any specific benefits we may get from providers.
We do have an option to receive commission from insurance providers based on the cover recommended. We sometimes do this as it can cover the implementation fees associated with the insurance recommendations. We will determine the most appropriate option for you.
The advice fee covers the initial process, including the following: meetings, collating information, researching and determining most appropriate recommendations and presenting these recommendations to you.
This fee is payable regardless of whether you want to implement all, some, or none of our recommendations.
The implementation fee covers implementing each of our recommendations made. We will then follow up during the process to ensure everything is implemented as per our expectations. | <urn:uuid:bd95470e-8f4a-4025-8912-c9518c81e707> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.tnsalbury.com.au/services-1 | 2020-09-22T15:29:29Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400206133.46/warc/CC-MAIN-20200922125920-20200922155920-00409.warc.gz | en | 0.947243 | 1,042 |

Pendergast-the world's most enigmatic FBI Special Agent-returns to New York City to investigate a murderous cult. William Smithback, a New York Times reporter, and his wife Nora Kelly, a Museum of Natural History archaeologist, are brutally attacked in their apartment on Manhattan's Upper West Side. Eyewitnesses claim, and the security camera confirms, that the assailant was their strange, sinister neighbor-a man who, by all reports, was already dead and buried weeks earlier. While Captain Laura Hayward leads the official investigation, Pendergast and Lieutenant Vincent D'Agosta undertake their own private-and decidedly unorthodox-quest for the truth. Their serpentine journey takes them to an enclave of Manhattan they never imagined could exist: a secretive, reclusive cult of Obeah and vodou which no outsiders have ever survived.

Series: Pendergast (#9)
I just discovered Douglas Lincoln and Preston Child last year and I first read their book Dance of Death which features my now-favorite detective, Special Agent Aloysius Pendergast. Now I'm on their #9 Pendergast series because I feel the need to follow my favorite agent's adventures. He is quirky...
This novel starts off with William Smithback, a New York Times reporter, being murdered in his apartment by a man who had died a week earlier. Adding to the fact that the murderer had the appearance of a zombie, it was easy to conclude that this was the work of a zombie. Later, a zombified Smithback...
Cemetery Dance by Preston and Child was a terrific read. This is my second Prendergast book and is once again filled with interesting characters and a plot that stands as something you would expect out of a paranormal or horror rather than a crime thriller. These quirks make Preston and Child's book...
I loved this book, it is actually the first book I have read by these authors and I am for sure heading back to read more by them. Great characters, interesting storyline with great twists and turns, just a really fun read! I am not sure if this book is actually part of a series or not, but it worke...
Another in the Aloysius Pendergast series. This pits Detective Pendergast against a voo-doo cult operating in the middle of NYC. It brings back some characters from previous books (Smithback, D'Agosta and even mentions Constance, so hopefully she'll be back in a following installment) and gives the ... | <urn:uuid:4654b783-098f-4665-a36b-80a38bd46172> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | http://booklikes.com/cemetery-dance-douglas-preston-lincoln-child/book,2905743 | 2020-09-23T22:46:35Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400212959.12/warc/CC-MAIN-20200923211300-20200924001300-00409.warc.gz | en | 0.951077 | 610 |
This is a super quick Brazilian dessert. I first had it about 10 years ago at a Brazilian churrascaria while on holiday in Miami. It is papaya blended with vanilla ice cream and served with some crème de cassis. If you want it non-alcoholic, you can use cassis syrup instead. I have been seeing a lot of papaya at my local market and this dessert popped back into my head. It’s a great treat for summer. To make it just a bit lighter; I used frozen yogurt and vanilla bean instead of vanilla ice cream.
This recipe serves 2.
3 cups of fresh papaya
2 cups of frozen yogurt
¼ cup of milk
1 vanilla bean or 1 teaspoon of vanilla essence
2 shots of crème de cassis
Place the papaya, frozen yogurt, milk and vanilla in the blender and blend until smooth. Serve a shot of crème de cassis on each glass and then pour the crème de papaya over it. | <urn:uuid:459f41f0-c495-4427-8c1b-f53ca3335c9f> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | http://cravingsinamsterdam.com/2015/06/12/creme-de-papaya/ | 2020-09-23T21:57:18Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400212959.12/warc/CC-MAIN-20200923211300-20200924001300-00409.warc.gz | en | 0.859644 | 211 |
Who wants free cupcakes? Stupid question. Everyone wants free cupcakes.
On Friday May 10, Sugar Bakery in East Haven will be giving away one free cupcake per customer starting at 9 a.m.
And, if the name Sugar Bakery doesn’t ring a bell, you might recognize their blue cupcake truck riding around town. The bakery had also won Food Network’s Cupcake Wars.
According to an article on WTNH entitled Free Cupcakes on Friday to Celebrate Facebook’s New Birthday Feature, the bakery was one of 50 bakeries to give away free cupcakes by Facebook to kick off a new birthday feature that will launch on May 10. The participating bakeries will not only be giving out free cupcakes, but also be providing information about the new feature as well.
Of course, we won’t tell anyone that you’re really there for the free cupcakes.
According to a press release from Facebook, this new feature is called birthday stories. The press release says that all you need to do is “tap on the birthday notification, shoot or upload a photo or short video or use one of our digital birthday cards.” And, it doesn’t stop there. The press release said that you can even add a music sticker as well.
Boy, birthday wishes have evolved from the standard greeting card. | <urn:uuid:94558b92-a652-4b3d-8fdd-2671df9b3dd8> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | http://ctboom.com/east-haven-bakery-selected-to-give-away-free-cupcakes-on-friday/ | 2020-09-23T22:07:21Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400212959.12/warc/CC-MAIN-20200923211300-20200924001300-00409.warc.gz | en | 0.950836 | 285 |

News you did not get – until now. It’s about failing systems, only this time it wasn’t septic systems that failed. Add “exfiltration” and “infiltration to your vocabulary – here’s an editorial that may change your perspective.
In Miami, a major sewer line burst spilling more than 20 million gallons of raw sewage into the bay. http://www.miamiherald.com/2010/06/20/1690248/raw-sewage-spills-into-biscayne.html . The question must be asked. Are septic systems a huge problem? Are septic systems a justifiable target, or a target that can be easily blamed. We think the “easily blamed” is true.
Mid March, a lift station failure in Pace FL was reported in the Santa Rosa Press. Lift stations move municipal sewer contents to the wastewater treatment plants. This one was huge. A lightning strike was blamed for the rupture, although residents in the area say there was no lightning the day it was reported.
In the article a spokesperson for the Pace Water System said there is “no way of estimating how much sewage escaped after the rupture, so I did an estimate and told the Dept. of Environmental Protection 50,000 gallons.” There was mention in the article that there were prior complaints for more than a year that the lift station was leaking. Residents are extremely concerned about the impact on surrounding wetlands and bayous.
Here are some figures to absorb. Septic contractors were brought in to suck the sewage out of ditches and other areas surrounding the lift station. They worked eleven days, 24 hours a day. One truckload holds 4,200 gallons, and fills in approximately 1 ½ hours. Do the math, they always say. According to this information 739,200 gallons of creek water mixed with raw sewage recovered.
2,500 septic systems would have to be gathered all in one spot and completely explode their contents to equal the damage done by this one spill. However, septic systems do not explode. Raw sewage sinks to the bottom of the tank and happy little microbes eat bacteria. Not so with the lift station failure in Pace.
Now let’s talk about “exfiltration.” This is the term used in the wastewater industry to describe water and raw sewage that leaks out of a municipal sewer line BEFORE it reaches the municipal treatment plant. Estimates range from 10% to 40% depending on the age of the sewer line. Sewer lines older than 20-30 years experience a higher exfiltration rate than newer ones. There is no pre-treatment of exfiltrated sewage, because there is no tank with happy little microbes. It just leaks into the ground and the groundwater.
Again, we do the math. Our numbers are for one day. According to the Dept. of Health, there are 2.5 million septic systems in Florida serving approximately 6 million people who send 69.3 gallons of water and sewage per person/per day into their septic systems. Of the total flow, 10% is sewage, the other 90% is water from showers, washing machines, etc. Using DOH figures, 10% are failing in some fashion or another. Total untreated by septic systems is a little over 4 million gallons per day. It is important to remember, that a septic system in failure is hard to ignore and most are repaired to normal functioning within a few days. Only a small fraction of the 2.5 million systems would be bottomless tanks.
Exfiltration numbers for municipal sewers are based on 12,000,000 residents and approximately 1,000,000 tourists a day that are sending 69.3 gallons per person/per day into sewer lines. Using a generous 10% as our exfiltration factor, approximately 90 million gallons is seeping untreated from municipal sewers every day. That’s a 22:1 ratio!
It’s important to note that sewer leaks or breaks can go for years undetected. And, then there are lift station failures like the one in Pace, and line breaks like the one in Miami!
Now, consider that when the Wekiva Study Area Nitrogen Assessment was released in February 2008, it stated plainly that the “sewer input calculation (for nitrogen) did not consider losses due to exfiltration.” Septic systems were blamed for the remainder of the nitrogen input.
Infiltration, we are told is a larger problem than exfiltration! Infiltration happens when heavy rains fill sewer lines beyond the capacity of the municipal treatment plant to handle it. The result is “outfalls.” Outfalls are nothing more than a fancy word for dumping. They are permitted by Florida Dept. of Environmental Protection. There are ocean outfalls and inland river outfalls. We don’t have a number of gallons that are dumped from municipal plants each year, but it’s not a stretch of the imagination to think that the increase in fish kills and red tides during the summer rainy months might somehow be tied to this problem. However, septic drainfields too close to the high water table are taking the blame.
Two reasons for putting you through this little exercise.
(1) We sincerely hope people on sewers and legislators re-set their thinking and put into proper perspective the size of the septic system issue. A 22:1 ratio is significant proof that the amount of attention being paid to fixing the septic system problem is totally out of proportion to the size of the problem.
(2) We sincerely hope that the residents of Pace who are on septic systems, and septic owners in other parts of this state where lift station failures and outfalls might occur, do not get blamed for the pollution they more than likely did not cause. | <urn:uuid:1bba3b3e-b6c4-4bc3-aeab-17e01ac0d13a> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | http://thesludgereport.org/a-reason-to-reset-your-thinking-about-sewers/ | 2020-09-23T21:22:47Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400212959.12/warc/CC-MAIN-20200923211300-20200924001300-00409.warc.gz | en | 0.955992 | 1,206 |

What is the shape of data? How do we describe flows? Can we count by integrating? How do we plan with uncertainty? What is the most compact representation? These questions, while unrelated, become similar when recast into a computational setting. Our input is a set of finite, discrete, noisy samples that describes an abstract space. Our goal is to compute qualitative features of the unknown space. It turns out that topology is sufficiently tolerant to provide us with robust tools.
This volume is based on lectures delivered at the 2011 AMS Short Course on Computational Topology, held January 4–5, 2011 in New Orleans, Louisiana.
The aim of the volume is to provide a broad introduction to recent techniques from applied and computational topology. Afra Zomorodian focuses on topological data analysis via efficient construction of combinatorial structures and recent theories of persistence. Marian Mrozek analyzes asymptotic behavior of dynamical systems via efficient computation of cubical homology. Justin Curry, Robert Ghrist, and Michael Robinson present Euler Calculus, an integral calculus based on the Euler characteristic, and apply it to sensor and network data aggregation. Michael Erdmann explores the relationship of topology, planning, and probability with the strategy complex. Jeff Erickson surveys algorithms and hardness results for topological optimization problems.

Below are my two reviews of Joel and Ethan Coen's 2007 Oscar-winner No Country for Old Men--recently added to the Criterion Channel--written for DVDTalk about four months apart.
THEATRICAL RELEASE, 11/8/2007
There is a dread that lingers long after No Country for Old Men has gone through its closing credits. Long after Tommy Lee Jones speaks his final lines, long after you've realized that this movie is not about what you thought it was, but about something else entirely. That dread is what another character, the El Paso sheriff that shares a meal and some wisdom with Jones, calls "the tide." It's not one thing that changes the world for the bad, he says, but the whole tide of things that will overwhelm you.
No Country for Old Men is adapted from the 2005 novel by Cormac McCarthy. It has been brought to the screen by the Coen Brothers, and despite the fact that they worked with their long-time cinematographer Roger Deakins, it doesn't really look like a Coen Bros. movie. It doesn't feel like one either, it doesn't move like one. In fact, had you played me this movie cold and told me nothing about who was involved, I wouldn't have guessed in a million years. I'm a big fan, too. I even liked The Ladykillers, which most people rip on pretty freely. It's been three years since that movie was released, and No Country for Old Men suggests that the famous filmmaking duo thought long and hard about how they would return to the Cineplex after that failure. For two guys whose early reputation grew fat on stylistic innovation, this quiet reinvention of what they are about is no less than astounding. Gone are the visual tricks and the hyperactive cameras, and in their place is something mannered, complex, and foreboding.
The plot of No Country for Old Men revolves around a satchel of money. While out in the Texas desert hunting, straight-laced welder Llewellyn Moss (Josh Brolin) happens upon the remnants of a drug deal gone bad. He finds the $2 million in cash that was intended to be the buy money and makes a rash decision to take it home, leaving the lone survivor of the bloodbath to die on his own. Feeling guilty, he returns to the scene in the middle of the night, only to be spotted by bad guys who want their money back. Barely escaping alive, Llewellyn sends his wife (Kelly Macdonald) off to her mother's and goes on the run.
Too bad for him his pursuer is a one-stop death machine. Anton Chigurh, played with a seething menace by Javier Bardem, started his killing spree before he even got to the mess in the desert, so Llewellyn is just going to be another notch in his belt. The simple act of filling up his stolen car with gas is like an existential exercise in flexing his muscles. There is nothing Anton does that won't end in someone bleeding out on the floor.
Add to the mix Tommy Lee Jones as the local sheriff and you have the three main ingredients in this Texmex recipe. Though no one would blame you for thinking Jones is once again playing the same role he's been playing for the last ten years, it's been a long time since he's been this good. His take on Sheriff Bell could have been just another run-through of the actor's good humored cynicism and cornfed homilies, but Jones rightly sensed that he was the true emotional center of No Country for Old Men, the spiritual avatar of its deeper themes; as a result, he sheds the skin of easy comfort that he's worn through most of his recent films and lets his soul back out. Just as the Coen Bros. appear to be blazing new trails for themselves, dropping their old tricks for serious storytelling, so Jones seems to have wearied of his homespun image and has decided to put that weariness on film.
Essentially, No Country for Old Men is a four-pronged chase picture. Bardem is on the trail of Brolin, the money men and dealers team up to chase them both, and Jones is chasing all three. When they do catch up with one another at different times in the picture, the results are unexpected and harrowing. Yet, each twist of the plot strides in on a very comfortable gait. The Coens don't rush it when it doesn't need to be rushed, and they never inject a scene with an inflated sense of peril. There is time enough to get where they are all going.
Or so it would seem. The ironic thing about the pacing of No Country for Old Men is that ultimately, despite the lack of panic, time is running out. It's a eulogy for a particular way of life, a lament for dying values. Anton Chigurh, with a name that sounds like the sweetest confection, is a force of nature that has come seemingly out of nowhere, and he represents the future less than he represents the divide. He twice lets his victims gamble on their life, the call of a flipped coin determining if they win or die. The old sheriff is heads, a thinker who follows a code and predetermined ideas, whereas Llewellyn Moss is tails, running on instinct, making choices that his counterpart would never make.
Even with all the dead bodies that litter the road these men travel, the most devastating part of No Country for Old Men has nothing to do with blood, guns, or any of that stuff. Those are not the things that linger. Hell, most of the more surprising bends in that road (and there are several near the end) eschew those elements altogether. The true brutality is the passage of time, in our awareness of it, and in the inevitability of the countdown. Like Chigurh, it can't be stopped. Not by pure stubborn action, not even by the capriciousness of chance. Perhaps it's better to be like Llewellyn and try to remain ignorant of what lies ahead, because when it's all down to the wire, there is no comfort in acceptance.
DVD RELEASE, 3/11/2008
My take on this year's Academy Awards was that it was a tough year to get it wrong. Except for a few glaring exceptions (*cough* Atonement *cough*), the major categories were packed full with amazing talent. This embarrassment of riches meant no film scored a clean sweep, though the Coen Bros. masterful rumination on time and tide, No Country for Old Men, came close.
It's an interesting film to ponder, because it seems to me that its fan club is populated with just as many people who misunderstand the film in the same way its detractors misunderstand it. I realize that interpretation of any art form is subjective, and I definitely subscribe to the theory that any explication is valid as long as it can be backed up, so I am not saying that these people are wrong. Even so, let me tell you why they are.
Adapted from the novel by Cormac McCarthy, No Country for Old Men is less a tough-guy genre story and more of a lament for the same. McCarthy and the Coens have come to bury Clint Eastwood, not to praise him (much less save him). (And, for the record, the absent scenes are also absent in the book.) It's not about the crimes or the getaways, it's about what these events represent.
As a good indicator of where some of the well-meaning attention No Country has garnered has taken a wrong turn is the overwhelming amount of ink devoted to Javier Bardem's performance as Anton Chigurh. Don't get me wrong, every ounce of praise heaped in Bardem's direction is deserved. His portrayal of the amoral Chigurh is one of the most carefully wrought and fiercely scary portrayals of a bad guy ever put on celluloid. Yet, there is a reason Bardem won for Best Supporting Actor and not as the lead. To consider Chigurh the lead is like giving the Death Star top billing in Star Wars. Chigurh is a force of the times, a catalyst for change, the unerring and unbending agent of fate who forces the hands of the men who run from him and the ones who pursue him. We've all seen that coin toss scene a million times now, and it's an important moment in the movie. Win or lose, you have to play, and if you don't know that, get out of the way, you're already done.
Though No Country for Old Men is an ensemble piece, if I had to pick a lead, I'd say it's the Tommy Lee Jones character, Sheriff Bell. He's the old man that the country has abandoned. He represents past values, the guy who got things done a certain way and had certain unassailable beliefs that he never thought would be rocked. Chigurh is the powerhouse that is pounding at the Sheriff's foundations, while Llewelyn Moss (Josh Brolin) is the modern man caught in between. He doesn't have the history of Bell to rely on, nor has he fully sussed out what the new system of values will be in Chigurh's future. He's running from Chigurh's deathly vengeance while Bell is trying to embrace him, to keep him safe. Neither position is Moss' place, and thus he must keep moving. The alternative is stagnation and death.
The beauty of McCarthy's metaphor is that it comes dressed in familiar armor, and thus the film adaptation shows up in the trappings of genre. One can easily enjoy the movie in that sense, but if you aren't watching for the way the Coens are dismantling genre, removing each piece of armor one by one, then you are likely going to find some disappointment when your expectations are subverted.
Funnily enough, all of the characters in the movie are going to learn essentially the same thing about expectations. Their belief in the order of the universe holds little weight, as the universe is wont to spin at its own accord. Even Chigurh, who attempts to destroy order by imposing his own concoction of chaos, is forced to learn what real randomness is. Moss' wife (Kelly MacDonald) is the only one willing to call him on it. His coin, as she explains, has no say in his actions, it's really just him, he will act as he will. His last scene in the movie is when one of the few truly random acts occurs, the one thing he doesn't make happen.
So, what then does a man do when the universe fails him? Keep soldiering on, it seems. Sheriff Bell finds no satisfaction in surrender, and the dreams he shares with his wife, of the inconsequential material world being lost and the hope for some light in the darkness, are suggestive of the only absolutes he can be sure about. | <urn:uuid:15400a80-fc45-4029-9724-927e1b915505> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | http://www.criterionconfessions.com/2018/01/no-country-for-old-men-criterion-channel.html | 2020-09-23T23:35:52Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400212959.12/warc/CC-MAIN-20200923211300-20200924001300-00409.warc.gz | en | 0.976703 | 2,281 |

In January, the JP Tower Museum INTERMEDIATHEQUE (IMT) is opening the special exhibition “The history of an anonymous penguin”.
At the Intermediatheque, we store many stuffed bird specimens entrusted from the Yamashina Institute of Ornithology. Junichi and Hitomi Oshima, private penguin researchers, recently certified the history of a penguin specimen from the Yamashina collection. It was caught in 1911 during the First Japanese Antarctic exploration by Nobu Shirase and was donated to the Meiji Emperor. This was suggested to be the first penguin collected by a Japanese around the Antarctic zone. The exploration log enabled us to identify the precise location where the specimen was collected. According to the location and morphological traits, this individual initially believed to be a Rock-hopper Penguin was re-identified by the Yamashina Institute as an Erect-crested Penguin. The Erect-crested Penguin is an endangered species breeding only in some isolated islands around New Zealand, and we have only one more specimen in Japan.
We finally unveil this penguin, anonymous until we identified its history and true name after 102 years. We hope that the audience hereby feels the epoch when people tried to conquest both Poles, as well as the biological specialization of penguins and the long history that this individual penguin experienced.

It is the start of a brand-new week and I finally got back in the swing of life as we know it… Or at least the recent version!
I posted a few things yesterday and I am all ready to write on my work in progress. I will try to fit in some of my masterclass sessions at the same time. Looking forward to both happening during the week.
My writer’s group and going to be brave and meet up this week. I won’t be there personally but think it will be interesting to see what happens! Hopefully, I will send them something to read… And one day I will join them in person once again. Mind you, who knows how long it will take to return to normal.
Anyway, that is about it from me. I will be back next week with the next update, and hopefully there will be something more from me this week fiction wise! (I say that every week, I know!)

After weeks of speculation, Romelu Lukaku is indeed leaving Manchester United for Inter Milan.
Sky Sports reports United has accepted an $88 million fee for the wantaway forward, who’s been absent from training this week and instead spending time in his native Belgium.
Inter Milan tweeted out confirmation on Thursday morning, with Lukaku standing in a jersey and repeating the club slogan “it’s not for everyone.”
Earlier this summer, the Red Devils rejected a $65 million initial offer from Inter, instead wanting around the $91 million they paid Everton for Lukaku two summers ago. But the improved bid was too much to pass up.
Lukaku scored 42 goals in 96 appearances for United, but never quite became the dominant striker the Red Devils envisioned. He now heads to Inter to play for Antonio Conte, and it figures to be a good situation for him; Conte has long desired his signature, and Serie A is favorable to big, physical strikers.
United, meanwhile, is left without a primary striker and will have to rely on a step forward from Marcus Rashford, a step up from Anthony Martial or a step into past form from Alexis Sanchez for goals. The January window beckons, and the Red Devils recouped plenty of money, but for now United has more questions than answers in the attack.

Church of the Cosmic Skull are not only one of the most exciting rock bands in the world today, but also an ever-growing spiritual organization, spreading the light of the Cosmic Rainbow across this planet and beyond.
The Church release their third studio album ‘Everybody’s Going To Die’ in November 2019 on limited edition heavyweight vinyl, CD edition cassette via their own label Septaphonic Records.
The Nottingham based ‘spiritual organisation’ continue to astonish listeners and festival audiences across Europe with their unique blend of prog, psych, rock, and ‘Occult Pop’.
Since their 2016 debut ‘Is Satan Real?’, electric viola, piano and Rhodes have been introduced alongside the Hammond organ and six-part vocal harmonies, resulting in a sound that truly ‘puts the ABBA in Sabbath’.
The decision to remain independent is a reflection of both the changing landscape of the music industry, and the Church’s wholeheartedly DIY approach, having turned down major label offers in favour of starting Septaphonic Records and their own live events company, Cyclopean Productions. Quoting one of the ‘7 Objects’, Church founder Brother Bill Fisher describes this as a chance to ‘Celebrate and uphold the freedom of art, science and thought.’
2020 will see the Church tour the UK and further afield, continue their ‘Tele-Vision’ output with mind-blowing new music videos, and invite all living beings to join the Cosmic Family on the ‘Psychic Ascension to Humanity’ via their internet web-portal: cosmicskull.org

It’s become clear that Tantrum Desire’s debut album project, Diversified, had way more high-octane in the tank than was revealed when it first dropped in 2015. Monumental though it was, the succession of nitro- charged remixes that we’ve been treated to show that those sounds have a lot more to offer. And now one of the indisputably biggest names in drum and bass music has
joined in the action. Yes, BBC Radio 1 and Shogun Audio’s very own Friction has reported for remix duty.
Genesis, in its original form, was one of the breakout hits of the album, and is set to reach those heights again. Friction stamps his authority on the track immediately, and reconfigures the elements into a savagely gritty and grimy intro. Dark swathes of bass and ominous pads leave no uncertainty: this is going to be heavy. The point is driven home by a massive, rumbling kick- build, pushing the rave’s anticipation off the scale.
The version we all know was marked out by those bouncy swing-time beats, and Friction delivers them in all their irresistible glory. The sharp call-and-response between high and low- end emphasises the groove even further. Friction’s retained all that dancefloor energy, while adding his own extra twist of filth in the bassline.
We couldn’t help skanking out to the original and this remix is just be as addictively floor-filling. With this most recent chapter of the Diversified story, one of the scene’s heavyweights has proved that there are still twists in the tale. Another one for discerning selectors on all sides of the scene.

Chinese Internet celebrities have been told to “promote virtues” by a leading official, state media said Sunday, after a singer sparked a free speech debate by venting about bombing government offices.
A man uses a laptop computer at a wireless cafe in Beijing on July 1, 2009. Chinese Internet celebrities have been told to “promote virtues” by a leading official, state media said Sunday.
Beijing expects celebrities to “uphold law”, state news agency Xinhua reported the official as saying, after singer Wu Hongfei was released earlier this month following her detention by authorities over her online comments.
She said she wanted to target Beijing’s housing authority and a neighbourhood committee, soon after a man set off a homemade device at the capital’s airport, citing grievances with local government.
“The government expects (Internet celebrities) to uphold law and order and to promote virtues and trust,” Xinhua quoted Lu Wei, director of the State Internet Information Office, as saying in indirect speech.
“They shall set an example of protecting the legal rights of citizens and denouncing any activities that harm the reputation and interests of other people,” he was reported as saying in a statement after a high-level meeting on Saturday.
AFP could not find the statement on the website of the department, who could not be reached for comment Sunday.
There are more than 1.2 billion accounts on the country’s popular Internet blogging websites, Xinhua said.
On two of the most popular Internet sites, the Twitter-like Sina Weibo and t.qq.com, 3,300 accounts have more than one million followers while about 200 have more than 10 million, the news agency added.
Media reported that Wu was held on suspicion of “fabricating fake terrorism information”, an offence that carries a maximum of five years in jail.
In an informal online poll run by state broadcaster CCTV, 80 percent of voters did not think Wu’s words constituted a crime.
Wu’s comments were made just one day after a man in a wheelchair detonated a small handmade explosive device at Beijing airport in protest over historical grievances with the authorities.
The airport bomber, Ji Zhongxing, was a former motorcycle driver who despaired at his failure to win redress for what he called a 2005 police beating in southern Dongguan city that left him paralysed, though authorities there said his claims lacked evidence.
The blast destroyed Ji’s hand and injured an officer, but his story triggered widespread sympathy and an outpouring of resentment at abuse by local authorities.
He has been formally arrested and could face three to 10 years in jail, his lawyer told AFP | <urn:uuid:78e1bc7d-849b-437b-96b9-22cd26365357> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://engineeringevil.com/2013/08/10/popular-china-bloggers-should-promote-virtues/ | 2020-09-23T21:30:31Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400212959.12/warc/CC-MAIN-20200923211300-20200924001300-00409.warc.gz | en | 0.971079 | 562 |

World Junior Championships. Costume review: ladies short program
45 girls performed their short programs at World Junior Championships in Debrecen! But unfortunately it wasn’t too difficult to choose the best dresses.
Here’s my top-5 best dresses of the ladies short program:
5. Teodora Markova
I like the noble grey color of the dress and the imitation of bolero . Translucent sleeves make arms to look more refined. The сuffs look romantic and also make an accent on the work of arms. Not too much decoration, the silver sequins on the bodice in the shape of heart look also romantic and add the needed spark to the dress. Lovely dress in ice-princess style.
4. Alisa Fedichkina
I’ve already discussed this dress here. Lovely, tender, girlish dress. Perfect choice for junior skater! I always appreciate when the costume is age appropriate. Soft pink always looks good on young girls. I can see the idea of a dress in empire style. The vinous ribbon under the chest prolonged the silhouette and made the impression of a high-waist, but in reality the waist is where it should be, what makes the dress more comfortable for figure skating.
3. Aleksandra Rudolf
What can be better than little black dress? Another great example of “the less is the best”. To look marvelous you don’t need to create something too complex, with lots of details and lots of finishing. Sometimes simple dress with wise decoration is the best choice. I like how silver Swarovski crystals make the illusion of drapery on the bodice and an illusion of plisse on skirt. Aleksandra looks chic and fashionable.
2. Bradie Tennel
I have already discussed this dress once. But I think Bradie had the same dress but of different colour at the World Junior Championships. Or it was only an optical illusion? Anyway it’s no so important because the dress is gorgeous! If I’m not mistaken it’s a dress by Brad Griffies? Classic, elegant dress, a bit in ice-princess style. The dress has an expensive look. It’s a nice dress for a young lady. Yes, I like dresses with the sleeves, the arms look refined and no need to use the nude ilusion mesh). This dress is a great example of two rules: 1) Either complex design or lots of finishing; 2) Open something one. Either do a plunging neckline or open back. I also like how the sparkling sequins are distributed. The dress is made with a lot of taste.

Girls, remember always choose something one. Either creative design or lots of finishing. Never both. Tyler’s dress all covered with silver sequins, has lovely asymmetrical finishing under the chest. The dress looks fabulous under the spotlights! It’s elegant dress that has an expensive look! Great choice for any classical program. | <urn:uuid:460f9b4e-dbdd-4f8c-be8e-83784401ba0d> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://fs-gossips.com/world-junior-championships-costume-review-ladies-short-program/ | 2020-09-23T22:07:34Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400212959.12/warc/CC-MAIN-20200923211300-20200924001300-00409.warc.gz | en | 0.919239 | 627 |

I just hope that the images reflect that, I thank all the Acholi for their hospitality – I’ll be back in 2014!! | <urn:uuid:7f3aff07-a2e8-4bf1-bd05-060b1cfa3ab1> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://geoffwalkerphotographer.com/tag/hut/ | 2020-09-23T22:57:12Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400212959.12/warc/CC-MAIN-20200923211300-20200924001300-00409.warc.gz | en | 0.948492 | 127 |
With the talented British actor Richard Armitage portraying Thorin Oakenshield’s unbridled desire in THDofS (2013) when gazing at his Erebor Mountain key with such smouldering intensity, I have but one thing to say … “Ohhhh, to be that key!” Sighhh! THUD!

memoQ client and network drives
Question: Can you use memoQ client when you have within your organization no rights over a physical drive?
Answer: memoQ client will not work when you as a user have no right over a physical drive because your TMs, termbases, corpora and light resources must be stored on a local drive. Having projects and project files stored on network drives are also not recommended. The reason for this is that memoQ needs to open the project database file for exclusive use. It is not always possible if the project folder is stored on a shared drive.
The memoQ client must have some data on a proper local drive, even when you work with online projects. | <urn:uuid:d2b68670-8329-4ce5-acc5-beed47969703> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://helpcenter.memoq.com/hc/en-us/articles/360010267560-memoQ-client-and-network-drives | 2020-09-23T23:08:12Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400212959.12/warc/CC-MAIN-20200923211300-20200924001300-00409.warc.gz | en | 0.938131 | 144 |
Since blockchain was conceptualized in 2008, its enormous potential has become more and more apparent. Indeed its recent success is a silent acknowledgement that the world is ready to explore the opportunity for everyone to contribute to the management of the data stream which governs it. However, the full potential of this awakening has yet to be implemented across the industries. The Productivist solution comes in answer to the enormous power this technology can offer the manufacturing world in general.
The Productivist blockchain project aims to create an open data stream where private individuals and companies of any scale can contribute to power the Indus- trial Revolution 4.0. The manufacturing world has reached a point where the only solution to prevail is heavy investments, relocations and aggressive management. We, at Productivist, wish to offer an open, free and global alternative thanks to technology.
In 2016 we created Freelabster.com: a collaborative network which connects 3D printing experts to potential clients. This strong and highly skilled network has rapidly grown over the past 2 years and it continues to grow every day. Today we have more than 3000 certi ed Freelabsters, (both companies and individuals) who offer their service to both the private and public sector. The Productivist Block- chain project will not only open the concept of Freelabster to all manufacturing technologies and give them access to a global map of manufacturing capacities but it will also provide security and privacy through its Smart Contract Protocol.
It is clear that the IoT revolution has opened the way for the Industrial Revolution 4.0 making it possible for production to be handled more ef ciently and locally us- ing smaller and smarter units. Our goal is to create a new standard to a multi-trillion market while maintaining at all times a guarantee of quality, fair pricing and ef ciency. | <urn:uuid:4109dc62-1955-431e-bbee-2b216c271077> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://icobench.com/ico/productivist | 2020-09-23T23:12:27Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400212959.12/warc/CC-MAIN-20200923211300-20200924001300-00409.warc.gz | en | 0.942484 | 368 |
Last month, the LIMES consortium met for a workshop at the DW Lab in Berlin. Our goal (apart from discussing the status of the project): to try and create a basic concept for a new (augmented) live streaming format that would appeal to a modern news organisation – and to once again discuss the key question what live streaming is actually about. Here’s a summary of what we came up with. (more…)
Are you interested in professionally produced footage of the past 100 years that mostly has not been published on the Internet before? Keen on accessing videos of historical events such as the fall of the Iron Curtain in the late 1980’s? Would you like to watch an interview with Peter Fonda and Dennis Hopper from 1969 about their movie Easy Rider?
EUscreen – an Internet portal of European broadcasters and archives – is just the right thing for you. (more…)
InVID (In Video Veritas) aims to assist in and partly automate the verification of videos captured by eyewitnesses, also referred to as user-generated content. A main goal is to make such videos usable for news providers for inclusion in their daily editorial work by developing a platform that provides services and features that detect, authenticate and check the reliability and accuracy of newsworthy video files spread via social networks.

Hyundai Motor Co is investing heavily in the plug-in electric cars, but Senior Vice-President Lee Ki-sang (who oversees Hyundai’s green car operations) spreads concerns of battery prices that could stop declining in 2020.
Year 2020 ahead of us!
What exactly will happen in 2020 to stop the long-term trend of falling prices one might ask?
Well, according to Lee Ki-sang, the key ingredients are expected to become more expensive.
“Not a single ingredient is going in a positive direction in terms of pricing,”
“So far battery prices have been declining at a rapid pace, but the pace will moderate significantly or maintain the status quo by 2020.”
If the ingredients (like nickel, cobalt and lithium) cost more, then all the weight of progress will fall on technology.
Because batteries are the most expensive part of most plug-in electric cars, then affordability will be tougher to achieve.
Interestingly, Volkswagen is looking to secure long-term supplies of cobalt, but so far hasn't had any progress in that regard.
"In September, Reuters reported that Volkswagen was moving to secure long-term supplies of cobalt for the group’s electric vehicle plans, but its talks with cobalt producers in November ended without a supply deal." | <urn:uuid:24592964-338d-4ec0-b0fc-18cef3b6dc99> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://insideevs.com/news/335172/hyundai-exec-thinks-ev-battery-prices-will-stop-declining-in-2020/ | 2020-09-23T22:04:04Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400212959.12/warc/CC-MAIN-20200923211300-20200924001300-00409.warc.gz | en | 0.937313 | 272 |

Innovation should rely on science and technology, but we should not forget the humanistic spirit and the original intention that science and technology ultimately serve human beings.
Innovation needs to realize commercial value, but it should also have a sense of social responsibility that transcends commercial interests and promotes the progress of human civilization.
Innovation is never limited to one institution, one industry or one country. Only by transcending national boundaries, can we build a community with a shared future for humankind and achieve a better world.

Gov.-elect Ricardo Rosselló said Tuesday his administration will delegate the task of promoting Puerto Rico to an independent Destination Management Organization, or DMO, putting the responsibility in the hands of the “sector that knows tourism and the island’s assets.”
During his first public presentation after being elected the island’s next governor, Rosselló told members of the Puerto Rico Chamber of Commerce that taking the responsibility away from the government will ensure the sector’s growth and continuity.
“The government will oversee that it does its job. In five years, this change can produce close to 22,000 jobs because it will generate trust within the tourism sector itself, as well as among people visiting Puerto Rico,” Rosselló said.
Puerto Rico was close to having a DMO — which would have been responsible for overseeing marketing efforts and continuity for the island under a single brand and as a unified front representing all of Puerto Rico’s tourism components — four years ago, at the tail end of Gov. Luis Fortuño’s administration.
In September 2012, he signed an executive order to establish a public-private workgroup to outline the structure and duties of the DMO, which was followed by a draft bill. But the concept and bill were shelved when Gov. Alejandro García-Padilla won the elections that year.
“Promoting Puerto Rico as an industrial destination, as a destination for medical tourism are examples of opportunities that the government manages today that we can outsource and allow sectors that know to run them,” Rosselló said.
His announcement drew quick reaction from several key tourism executives who agreed Puerto Rico would benefit immediately from a DMO.
Milton Segarra, president of Meet Puerto Rico — the island’s certified DMO for groups and conventions business — said creating a DMO to market the island is a “critical step to be able to establish the foundation for solid growth, protected from political changes and policy changes.”
“It will allow a sector as important as tourism, which affects 17 economic sectors, to continue to grow and maintain a level of growth that creates more, well-paid jobs, while giving small and mid-sized businesses an important opportunity,” said Segarra, a former executive director of the Puerto Rico Tourism Co.
“A well-established DMO, equipped with the necessary resources, can be the spark that sets off all that growth,” he said, adding that Meet Puerto Rico is available to work with the incoming administration on the project.
The DMO is a world-proven model that has worked in cities and countries that have established them, he said “so I hope this time, it is given the continuity and depth that it needs.”
Clarisa Jiménez, president of the Puerto Rico Hotel and Tourism Association — the main proponent of the DMO in 2012 — said the draft legislation created under Fortuño has been updated to reflect industry changes.
“The changes are minimal. What’s important here is that the DMO needs to be a completely independent entity with fiscal autonomy that is not under the umbrella of any government agency,” Jiménez said. “But the bill includes significant government supervision.”
The group expects to move the DMO project during the first 100 days of the Rosselló administration.
“We’re happy and hopeful to be able to work on something we know will be very good for Puerto Rico,” she said. “Every time a new administration comes in, it brings new ideas and changes that produce a terrible inconsistency that affects tourism horribly.”
“Puerto Rico does not generate top-of-mind awareness in markets such as the northeastern United States, where the most money has been invested in marketing,” Jiménez said. “You can’t consider the money being spent on marketing the destination as an investment, because it’s been wasted with all of the changes. There is no strong brand.”
Rosselló said Puerto Rico has invested more than $1 billion over the past 15 years to promote the island, “but we don’t have a globally recognized brand.” | <urn:uuid:152b5466-1edf-4b46-8dc6-89758c51b4da> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://newsismybusiness.com/rossello-proposes-tourism/ | 2020-09-23T23:44:56Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400212959.12/warc/CC-MAIN-20200923211300-20200924001300-00409.warc.gz | en | 0.954915 | 891 |
Do you find yourself constantly writing and rewriting your TO DO list? Do you have lots of lists on the go at the same time and are never sure what to do next? Well, this post will, I’m sure, help you stop all that right now – introducing the MASTER TO DO LIST…
Over the years I have come to find a really great system for TO DO lists that works for me, and in that system (the key to it), is a MASTER TO DO LIST.
WHAT EXACTLY IS A MASTER TO DO LIST?
- A MASTER TO DO list is basically a list of all tasks that need to be done by you at some point in the future.
- It is one list for EVERYTHING – whether it be related to your work life, home life, social life or anything else….
- It is categorised and put into an order (main task and mini tasks needed to complete the main task) that means you know where you are on any given task at any given point – and each task is something that can be done within any given day.
- It is somewhere that you can go to see what needs doing next when you have time in your schedule.
It will keep you focused on what’s important, give you a great overview of where you are in all aspects of your life, and will really help manage your way towards your goals.
WHAT IS IT NOT?
- It does NOT have tasks on it that have a definite deadline to them – as these should be immediately added to your diary instead.
- It is NOT a complete brain dump of everything you would ideally like to get done at some point in the future – as this gets too overwhelming to say the least.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF A MASTER TO DO LIST?
I am totally in love with my MASTER TO DO LIST, because it really helps me to have everything in one place that’s important and a priority to my life at that moment.
I find that having everything in one place makes it so much easier to progress tasks, whatever you are doing, and so much easier to see what I have to get done at some point.
I can prioritise more effectively and focus more easily as the list is split up into categories.
As a “working for myself from home mum” I have several different roles, and this has also regularly changed over the years depending on what age my daughter has been, and what I am doing for work etc…
The main thing that stays the same though is that I am only one person, so it stands to reason that every different role I play in my life (mum, business woman, home keeper, wife, friend etc…) has to fit into my time and therefore tasks related to any part of that life should be on one list and one list only – which is why categories work so well on the list.
Another amazing benefit of this list is that it really helps me to guide my life and my goals – because I always think that your TO DO list should, at least to some level, reflect your goals.
Think about it, if your TO DO list is only full of things that get you by each week, then you will feel less fulfilled than having larger tasks on it as well that lead you eventually to something you really want to do (start a business, redecorate a room etc…). It helps that I can see clearly what I’ve written down, and therefore what I’m heading for should I get it all done (its sort of a reflection of your life and what you see yourself doing, so it should at least to some degree get you excited when you look at it!).
Writing everything down also means that I can change as my life and goals change and other things become more important (for example, I may have a TO DO as being to sort out all the baby clothes my daughter has outgrown, and sell them online – but what if I become pregnant again. Obviously I don’t now need to sort the clothes as I will need them again in the future, and so my MASTER TO DO LIST changes at this point to reflect that change). If I didn’t have TO DOs written clearly then I may not feel as in control as I do when I write everything down and see where I am headed.
I can scan that list at any point and see that goals I have set for any area of life at that point are going to be tackled – with definite tasks written out that will take me one step closer to each one.
I know that I will get there in the end, no matter how long that will take (depending on how much time I can give my TO DOs each day/week/month).
And it’s SO free-ing!
WHERE SHOULD I KEEP A MASTER TO DO LIST?
This, as always when it comes to getting organised, is totally up to you!
I am a paper and pen kind of girl when it comes to lists and my diary, and I also work from home most days, so at this stage of my life I keep my list in my Home File. This works for me because my Home File is easy to grab and it’s also easy for my hubby to see if he should need to at any point.
When I was out of my house more during the day, I decided that the best place for it was actually at the end of my Diary, which works well as well – so it depends on how I am feeling and what life is like really!
My husband has his master TO DO list on his phone in a TO DO list app – and this works best for him.
So, whether you are a paper and pen enthusiast like me, or prefer a technology based solution – it doesn’t really matter. The thing that matters is the system that you have in place for your TO DO list so that it works hard for you and you control it rather than it becoming an overwhelming beast thats unworkable.
I hope the idea of a MASTER TO DO LIST would work well for you as well, and I’d love to know what you think about the concept so please leave a comment below, and thanks in advance for doing so x
By the way, if you want more TO DO list advice, including the systems I use and how they work really well for me, and a free TO DO list printable, then just CLICK HERE – and I hope you enjoy x | <urn:uuid:a2c1e9a0-dc4f-43e6-bfaf-7af3eb65a36d> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://organisemyhouse.com/why-a-master-to-do-list-works-best/ | 2020-09-23T21:54:18Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400212959.12/warc/CC-MAIN-20200923211300-20200924001300-00409.warc.gz | en | 0.971768 | 1,349 |
Global Markets: Neutral
A short 3 months ago the investment world was worried about Greece.Today the real threat to market performance is China and other struggling emergingmarkets. With a slowdown in China, and recession in places like Russia and Brazil, the rest of the world is left wondering, “How will this affect us?” Nonetheless, domestic demand in developed areas, and in the healthier EM countries acts as a counterbalance to these forces, warranting our neutral position.
U.S. Economy: Good
U.S. Economic data continue to be healthy. Job creation continues, housing starts are still climbing toward a more normal range, and we see the strongest automobile sales in 13 years. Credit is still inexpensive, and the US consumer, who accounts for about 2/3 of the economy, is still spending while still maintaining an above average savings rate. Corporations also continue to spend and hire. Although there have been some earnings revisions, the recent selloff has pushed P/E ratios below the levels that are appropriate in the type of economic environment we are experiencing at this time.
Inflation continues to be well below historical averages at 1.5%. The effect of low energy costs, low interest rates, low cost manufacturing, and other factors on prices of all goods and services is still in play, keeping the inflation rate at about half the level of a historical norm.
Interest Rates: Neutral
Yellen’s very cautious stance still seems to be in play. The Fed’s decision not to begin normalizing rates in September was received by the market negatively. A raise in rates would be seen as a “vote of confidence” by the fed. It seems that the timeline for inevitable future rate increases continues to shorten.
U.S. Stock Market: Good
Valuations based on projected earnings are now slightly underdone vs. historical norms. In addition, even given the very volatile negative quarter, there is little to support this being a sign of greater doom, but looks more like a normal mid-cycle decline. The areas to watch over the next 2 -4 quarters are energy prices and investor sentiment. The investment community is jittery, looking for an event to push the US markets into correction territory. Political pressures heading into an election, and the possibility of a geopolitical crisis of some type could outweigh the healthy economic data we continue to see. Absent typical bearish indicators we have to maintain an overweight to equities. We feel that even with the last quarter spooking many investors, the markets will continue to move up over the next year.
U.S. Bonds: Cautious
Volatility continues, which favors neutral to short duration and high quality corporates with some exposure to Treasuries to protect portfolio value. The 10 year ended the quarter at 2.05%, with yields falling significantly across the fixed income spectrum as investors fled to safer territory during the recent equity market downturn. As the markets move closer and closer to interest rate increases active management of duration, quality, security type and yield will help to temper the effects of rising rates.

This End of the Garden Soup Recipe is a lot like what my mom used to call “Left-Over Soup”, because you basically take what you have in the refrigerator, add a few things from the cupboard, and there you go: an amazing, healthy, and delicious soup filled with delicious food that might have gone to waste otherwise.
Actually, my mom is the best person I know to be able to pull something together for surprise guests. When we lived in Zimbabwe, there were those surprises almost daily. At least, it seemed that way to me growing up. And those surprise guests …there could be 10 or even 20 of them at a time. Imagine having to deal with that on a regular basis. Well, God prepared her for it. She wouldn’t even sweat it. She’d go put on some tea and get a giant pot out and start throwing things in. You gotta admit, as long as you have a great loaf of bread and a good soup, you have a great meal!
This year, I sadly noticed that my garden was about done with most of the crops. Well, I shouldn’t say sadly. Harvest time is a time of rejoicing. I just wish everything didn’t have to start dying, but such is life. Anything that hadn’t already been processed into jars and the freezer was left out to make this amazing soup.
What you Need
- Most of all you need the base: an AWESOME Homemade Beef Broth! Learn How to make your own Here. This is super important to have canned or in your freezer so you can grab some out for just such days as these. It’s also good in Homemade Pasta e Fagioli.

Be creative with what you have left from your garden and what you have in your fridge, whether that be rice, noodles, etc.

All About the Peaceful Pergola Accessory Set
Caring for Your Our Generation Peaceful Pergola
Your garden accessory set arrives fully assembled, so you can play with it out of the box!
Doll accessories are not quite like accessories for people, so they need to be cared for in a special way. A little prevention can go a long way towards keeping your doll accessories nice and tidy for years to come!
Since doll accessories can be made of a range of materials, we recommend avoiding commercial cleaners and detergents as those products may damage your product. For smaller messes, try using a clean, damp cloth to gently spot clean the products. First, sponge up as much of the mess as you can and use warm water to gently rub the area. Let the item air-dry and repeat as needed.
It is also a very good idea to avoid exposing your doll accessories to heat sources like direct sunlight, irons, and clothes dryers, especially for items that contain plastics.
Remember, sometimes life gets messy, especially when you're having fun!
Our Generation dolls love going on adventures, and they understand that sometimes even a favorite toy might get dirty during a fun day. | <urn:uuid:a40eca8a-958b-461c-ba98-0b032fdb6c3f> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://staging.ourgeneration.com/shop/accessories/peaceful-pergola | 2020-09-23T22:06:44Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400212959.12/warc/CC-MAIN-20200923211300-20200924001300-00409.warc.gz | en | 0.926771 | 811 |

Around here I mostly stick to design, but I do love to bake especially around this time of year! I have a few Christmas cookie recipes that I make every year without fail and this Christmas Bark is one of them.
There are two reasons I love this one, other than the fact they are obviously delicious. One is that they’re quick and easy to make, using on five ingredients. And two, everyone really loves these. I always get great feedback when I give these out.
I found this recipe years ago in a holiday issue of People magazine. It was submitted by Stacy Keibler (I wonder if she made these for George Clooney, lol) and it had been in her family for years.
The base of the cookies is made from saltine crackers, which you would never know when eating them!
You start by lining a baking pan with parchment paper and placing a single layer of saltine crackers on top.
Next, add the butter and brown sugar to a small sauce pan and cook over low heat, stirring often. Once it’s melted and blended, pour the mixture over the saltine crackers.
Next, bake it in the oven for about 9-11 minutes. You’ll see it bubbling when it’s ready. Remove from oven and immediately pour the chocolate chips across the top.
Once they start to melt (it only takes about 30 seconds) spread the melting chips across the entire top of the crackers like icing. SO GOOD.
Once your chips are melted and spread, add your chopped pecans. I usually add a bit more than what the recipe calls for.
Now you add it to the fridge for about an hour to firm up. Lastly, take it out and cut it into pieces. I sort of chisel mine to form irregular shapes, it’d be impossible to cut these into perfect squares.
This Christmas Bark is such an easy recipe, I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been asked for it after people have tried them. And they are always shocked to find out it was made with saltine crackers!
Do you have a family favorite cookie recipe that you make every year? I’d love to hear about it in the comments! You can find our other family favorite peanut butter cookie recipe here.

This is a great time of year to live in Florida, with the summer heat and steady rains comes wonderful produce. Our farmers are plentiful and talented, bringing us the chance to create phenomenal dishes, all from within the state. As Chefs, we strive to use local sourcing and organic when we can, we want to educate our guests as well as feeding them.
We had a young, hip group in a few weeks ago, and were asked to produce a menu to WOW this well-traveled group. When it comes down to it, the beautiful produce and meats we can get, really stand on their own, simple speaks loudly here. That was the focus we drove toward, keep an organic, local and sustainable menu, featuring creative presentation and simplified, screamingly good flavors.
It is a pleasure to feed people interested in food, in what we do- like any profession, when you come across someone interested in what you do, it is very reaffirming.
The group loved it all, the food, the lighting, the lounge feel, and the entertainment was amazing. If you ever get a chance to see, meet or hear Anita Goodstory- you will not regret, I had belly cramps from holding in my giggles. What a personality!
Cheers to eating local, supporting small farmers and having the tastiest, freshest ingrediants available! | <urn:uuid:b63aa1b8-e1d9-4066-9aa4-04d5d789da91> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://vanillalemonade.com/2012/06/15/all-from-florida-dinner-event-menu/ | 2020-09-23T23:16:51Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400212959.12/warc/CC-MAIN-20200923211300-20200924001300-00409.warc.gz | en | 0.955842 | 279 |

GENEVA, Switzerland, February 13th, 2020,-/African Media Agency (AMA) /-In Africa, where a pregnant woman living with HIV lives has a big influence on whether her baby will be born HIV-free, and, if not, how her infant will acquire HIV.
There are a many reasons for vertical (mother-to-child) transmission of HIV, including: women not receiving antenatal and prevention of vertical HIV transmission services during pregnancy or breastfeeding; women starting antiretroviral therapy but falling out of care during pregnancy or breastfeeding; and women becoming infected with HIV during breastfeeding or pregnancy. However, not all countries face the same challenges, and to make rapid progress in eliminating vertical transmission it is crucial to know which means of transmission is contributing to the most new HIV infections among children in a country or region.
While the causes of vertical transmission of HIV in different regions vary, one thing is sure: far too many babies are still becoming infected with HIV.

Co Antrim bus company Wrightbus has said it has a full order book between now and the end of the year but that it will not be reversing its restructuring plans.
Business Telegraph can also reveal that the business worked to save a small supplier in the town from insolvency by paying for goods in advance.
It is also planning to launch a new zero-emissions bus early next year.
Ballymena company Advance Engineering, led by ex-Wrightbus owner Jeff Wright and fellow pastors from the evangelical Green Pastures Church, went into administration last week with the loss of 30 jobs.
The board of directors blamed the administration of a key customer - a reference to Wrightbus, which itself went bust last year - as well as the impact of Covid-19 and lockdown.
The board of Advance Engineering appointed Brian Hegarty of HannawayCA Business Recovery as administrator.
Wrightbus has had a new lease of life since its administration after it was bought over by industrialist Jo Bamford, whose father Anthony is chairman and owner of equipment company JCB.
Wrightbus chief executive Buta Atwal said it had attempted to help Advance Engineering survive, but to no avail.
The smaller business carried out work including laser cutting and upholstery as well as acoustic and heat insulation work.
It also produced items such as single and double-deck bus rear frames, seat-box assemblies and high-volume corner assemblies.
Mr Atwal said: "Advance Engineering was a supplier of ours and we were made aware that it was going through financial difficulties, so we were not surprised when the administrators were called in.
"We had agreed to pay for goods in advance in an attempt to help with its cash flow situation but, despite this, our support unfortunately wasn't enough to keep it from going into administration.
"We're currently working with the administrators to ensure minimum impact on our business but clearly we are deeply disappointed at this turn of events. We're working hard to create a sustainable situation where the success of Wrightbus enables others in the supply chain to also become successful.
"We want a strong manufacturing network around us to help create stable employment opportunities in Northern Ireland."
He said the company's order book was full between now and the end of the year but that it would not be going back on a plan to restructure the business, including letting go 35 permanent staff and releasing 90 agency staff.
The reductions leave it with a staff of 575.
Mr Atwal said: "We restructured in early March as the effects of Covid were becoming apparent and nothing has changed with that plan.
"We have a full order book until Christmas, and we continued to invest in engineering throughout the furlough period, resulting in the development of a significant new zero emissions product being developed that will be launched in the New Year.
"This is a truly exciting time for Wrightbus as we deliver 15 of the world's first hydrogen double-deckers into Aberdeen and a further 20 into London later this year." | <urn:uuid:165c08d6-10f3-4491-837c-a453711d1207> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/business/northern-ireland/we-intervened-but-couldnt-save-supplier-advance-engineering-wrightbus-39492107.html | 2020-09-23T23:33:04Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400212959.12/warc/CC-MAIN-20200923211300-20200924001300-00409.warc.gz | en | 0.981888 | 623 |

The largest ever study into the genetics of depression has identified 44 gene variants that are linked to the disease.
The unprecedented global collaboration used genetic information from over 135,000 people with depression and 344,000 controls. The team confirmed 14 gene variants that were previously identified, but also discovered 30 new variants, prompting hopes that further research may identify new drugs to treat depression. The study was published in Nature Genetics.
'The new genetic variants discovered have the potential to revitalise depression treatment by opening up avenues for the discovery of new and improved therapies,' says Dr Gerome Breen from the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology and Neuroscience at King's College London. 'With this study, depression genetics has advanced to the forefront of genetic discovery.'
Although it has long been known that there is an important genetic component to depression, researchers have struggled to identify gene variants associated with the condition. One of the reasons for this, according to the new study, is that many gene variants contribute together to determine an individual's risk of developing depression.
'There is certainly no single gene for depression,' Professor Cathryn Lewis, also a researcher at the institute, told The Guardian. 'We know that thousands of genes are involved in depression with each having a very modest effect on a person's risk.'
The study team pooled together data from the UK, the USA, Iceland and Denmark to come up with the numbers to identify even those modest effects. It pooled data on genetics and depression from big databases such as UK Biobank and 23andMe. Some of the gene variants they have identified have been previously linked to other mental disorders such as schizophrenia, or have been linked to known risk factors for depression such as a high body mass index (BMI).
Some of the gene variants identified are linked to neurotransmitters such as serotonin, which are targeted by current drug therapies. The newly identified gene variants could lead to a better understanding of the biological mechanisms behind depression, and, with further research, new drug therapies.
'What we've had in recent decades is a shortage of new mechanisms that underlie depression and psychiatric disorders,' said Dr Breen. 'The hope is that in new data we identify new processes that can be targeted by newly developed types of drugs, which have different mechanisms of action to existing medications.' | <urn:uuid:b8d22bfc-7213-45f1-a35e-043acc86e635> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.bionews.org.uk/page_135584 | 2020-09-23T22:43:07Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400212959.12/warc/CC-MAIN-20200923211300-20200924001300-00409.warc.gz | en | 0.953933 | 463 |

Gianfranco Zola is a footballer, not a ‘striker’ and it’s not enough to measure him simply in terms of goals, assists and international caps. I believe Zola, more than any other player, was responsible for Chelsea’s greatest trophy-winning era. The team, though technically better, stopped progressing under Gullitt before Zola arrived.
Vialli hadn’t made an impact, though he didn’t complement Hughes. Most remember the immediate impact Zola made and the more effective partnership he formed with Hughes. That partnership under-scored but more goals came from the rest of the team, notably Petrescu, Di Matteo and Lebeouf initially; before Poyet and Flo arrived the next season – not to mention the odd goal from ‘The Rat’. Without a surprise or danger element passing football isn’t too productive and even after the arrival of Zola we still saw a tendency to overplay, mostly through the middle as Chelsea had no effective wingers. Zola truly was the catalyst. Until his arrival Chelsea were still too predictable and unthreatening. There was no one with real pace, no winger and no one with altogether the first touch, control, skill, quick feet, balance, sharpness, flair, awareness, quick-thinking, cunning, dribbling ability, passing ability, shooting ability and two-footedness to be of real concern to opposing defences. And no one as dangerous from 25 yards. Zola wasn’t a greyhound, a flying winger, a battering ram or a bone-crusher, but he was everything else. He wasn’t an Owen but he was quick off the mark, due to his alertness and remarkable fitness, aided by his healthy life-style. Despite his age he played all over the opponents half and was always looking for the best position to receive the ball, whether deep or wide and go or play into dangerous areas.
After that memorable goal when his balance and control calmly took him past at least three defenders before slotting past a gob-smacked Schmeical, Ferguson said “He’s a better player than I thought. He’s a clever player and he knows how to hurt us”. A couple of seasons later Zola scored another memorable goal, at Old Traffford. Vialli’s team totally outplayed Ferguson’s but went behind in the second half. Around the eightieth minute, Zola made an incursion towards the right-hand corner of the penalty box and played a short one-two with Poyet, whose return was deftness defined. Zola took a touch, then a slighter one to set himself and placed a left-footed shot round Schmeical as he closed. Absolute quality goal for a most deserved equaliser.
I was aware of Zola when he played for Parma, due to the coverage of Italian football after Gascoigne joined Lazio, though I only saw him in a few clips. I heard a lot about him. I was watching an Italy match during the ’94 World Cup or it was on, at any rate. Zola did something that astounded me. A ball had deflected quite high into the air and was dropping, spinning, in a near-vertical arc, midway in the opponents half . Zola was underneath it with his back to goal and opponents closing. He couldn’t have seen Casiraghi’s ‘blind side’ run as he watched the ball. He cushioned it, then quickly killed and set it while twisting his body to chip a diagonal ball over the defence for his partner to miss from several yards. It was a fabulous piece of skill by Zola, most efficiently executed and he seemed to have eyes in the back of his head. That always stuck in my mind and when I learnt he was coming to Chelsea I felt he would impress for sure, fitness permitting and I really looked forward to seeing exactly how he would perform. I remember a Serie-A player saying he felt Zola had become less effective there as defenders got used to him and his tricks, but he was sure he would do really well in England and score “a lot of wonderful goals”, as he put it. I wasn’t disappointed, of course.
I remember the first time I saw him play for Chelsea, on the TV highlights. The second time I saw him touch the ball, he was some way inside the Chelsea half. A ball came at him out of defence, in the air or it was bouncing quite high (for him) and quite fast. Opponents were close and it didn’t seem he’d have time or space to control the difficult ball to make a pass. Somehow, either because of a bit of luck or a totally deliberate ‘sleight of body and feet’, Zola was free and in space with the ball. The commentator sounded as surprised as I was. Once free, Zola immediately played a perfectly weighted 30-yard ball along the ground and just inside the full-back which Le Saux seized on after continuing his run but the opening was lost. I thought “Wow, we got a player here”. Again, Zola showed fantastic control, the ability to quickly set himself to pass and great awareness or guesswork of where his team-mates were or were likely to run – and he had only known them for about a week.
It seemed he didn’t ‘look’ to make passes, except when he intended to deceive. He knew what he was going to do with the ball before he received it and his touch, balance, quick feet, skill and close control enabled him to quickly find space for himself to make things happen. He slipped great passes and played exceptional first-time ones, particularly short ones and was brilliant at keeping the ball, working his way out of tight situations. Everyone knew he made the team ‘tick’, but man-marking him mostly didn’t work as it required a special kind of marker and for them to be dragged around the pitch. Zola missed very few games for Chelsea. His avoidance of injuries was remarkable in itself and a testament to his fitness, alertness and instincts when closely attended by opponents. Also, he was the player most respected by opponents, so that helped him too.
In my opinion, Zola never had the perfect striking partner at any time during his Chelsea career. Hughes was the nearest and would have been perfect if he had been quicker – or younger. Flo would have been great if he had been a bit stronger, a bit quicker and better in the air. Casiraghi looked more mobile than Hughes, but was otherwise inferior before his injury. Sutton didn’t fit into a passing team and was the strangest signing. Hasselbaink, a proven goalscorer, is too selfish, moody and complaining for the good of the team and has shortcomings as a footballer, which Zola couldn’t compensate for. In his defence, JFH hasn’t had great service from wingers or midfielders to exploit his strengths.
The Hasselbaink-Gudjohnsen partnership two seasons ago was prolific and they made many goals for each other. Not a lot of goals were scored or created by the rest of the team. Hasselbaink missed games through suspension and Zola replaced him, but he wasn’t truly match-sharp from regular starts and he was less familiar with new players and the change of the team’s style of play. Gudjohnsen didn’t complement him, as he was more similar. That season it seemed Chelsea mostly scored by by-passing midfield or by Hasselbaink or Gudjohnsen getting possession and creating goals for themselves or each other. Lampard, Petit, Zenden, Gronkjaer, Le Saux and Stanic all had bad seasons, due to injury or needing games to get familiar. There was no cohesion about the team and there just seemed to be a defensive department and a striking department. Opposing defences found it easier stopping Chelsea, as the threat came almost totally from Hasselbaink and Gudjohnsen – neither especially difficult to mark, except Gudjohnsen when he dropped back or wide. Despite some fine wins and plenty of goals for Jimmy & Eidur, Chelsea finished sixth after spending £32m to get into the Champions League, at least.
Compare to last season. While Zola scored more than in previous seasons, Hasselbaink and Gudjohnsen scored a lot less, yet Chelsea scored more goals and finished two places higher, against most people’s expectation. The improvement cannot be attributed to De Lucas, but an improvement in some individuals and the familiarity, spirit, teamwork and compactness of the same group of players; a crucial contribution by Cole; and the avoidance of a lengthy injury to Le Saux (as Zenden embarrassed). Essentially, during the first months of the season, especially, Zola was in his best form for years. I remember him saying he couldn’t leave Chelsea after losing The Cup Final to Arsenal, especially as a substitute and having such a personally disappointing season, when he was often on the bench. He said he was going to come back fitter, at his best and make it impossible for Ranieri to leave him out. He wanted to end his Chelsea days on a high note, expecting he could only play one more season.
He achieved his objective and surprised everybody, including himself – so much so, he thought he could play another season. It seemed Ranieri was both delighted and frustrated with Zola. Delighted with his crucial unexpected early season form and goals, when his preferred strikers were recovering from injury or off-form. Then frustrated later when Gudjohnsen was ‘fit’ but Ranieri couldn’t play him because of Zola’s form. Hasselbaink was affected by his late pre-season “Barca, come and get me” failure and Gudjohnsen got seriously depressed on the bench. Jimmy & Eidur were re-united when Franco got a knock or was rested, but the team struggled or were not convincing when they played together, as they both were off-form. There were signs in the New Year that their form might be returning and Ranieri gambled, I felt, by off-loaning Forssell once he was fit to play in the reserves. Zola had showed signs of possibly tiring and Cole was sometimes out of his depth. Neither Hasselbaink or Gudjohnsen returned to their form of the previous season and so Chelsea had to ‘essentially’ qualify for the Champions League the difficult and tense way, with still another hurdle ahead.
It may have been a surprise that Jimmy & Eidur started against Liverpool with Franco on the bench, but I believe Ranieri was shrewd with that decision. He put Zola on in the second half to “play his football”, which he did splendidly and he somewhat demoralised and frustrated Liverpool – Gerrard, in particular. Zola – Chelsea’s greatest ever and world-class? I haven’t witnessed all Chelsea’s players since 1905 – only 1970 – but of all the ones I’ve seen, I believe he has been the most important. I believe Zola was world class. He filled the boots of Maradona well enough for Napoli not to buy a replacement, in a league that, at the time, had more than it’s share of the world’s top players. He made a significant number of appearances for Italy, one of the worlds leading football nations. Most unusually, he made an immediate stunning impact on arriving in England and playing in the most intensive and demanding league in the world. Also in a team that already included French, Romanian, Dutch and Norwegian players, as well as English, Welsh, Scottish and a couple of Italians. All despite only knowing very little English, but he was fluent in the international language of football.
He won the football writers ‘best player’ award at the first attempt, despite arriving in late November, through the instant outstanding quality and effect of his performances. Zola could have quickly adapted anywhere. He set standards and was respected and appreciated by all involved in the game it seemed, including all fans of football and I expect he won football some new fans too. He was the best example for youngsters and young players to follow, on and off the field and was an inspiration. I knew he could play before he came to Chelsea but I had little idea about the character of the man and I feel all Chelsea fans should be proud they had Zola, especially for so long, even though he was considered past his peak when he arrived, aged 30.
Apart from the memorable moments and goals, Zola contributed a lot more on the field. He helped the team’s fluidity and ability to retain possession and sustain a higher tempo during a game. He made controlling the ball and passing look a lot easier than it was and much of his good work looked quite ordinary and was unmemorable. To borrow quotes from Mark Hughes, about Zola: “He’s so good on the ball it’s untrue. He sends in these inch-perfect passes which are so accurate that you don’t have to break stride. If I cannot play well with a player like Gianfranco Zola then it’s a bad reflection on myself.” Regrettably, Vialli didn’t keep Hughes for another season, but replaced him with Sutton and he couldn’t get a better left winger than Ambrosetti. Then, I feel, Zola certainly would have had a Championship medal too. He deserved one and it would have been an even greater story. Ah, well, hindsight’s a wonderful thing …
Well, things haven’t turned out perfectly, I feel, but we should be positive now. I hope Ranieri is given a fair chance and allowed to do his job as he sees fit. (Just don’t tinker and be more positive, Claudio – please!) | <urn:uuid:a58aeb6b-da4b-4505-adc1-9f2624174dfa> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.cfcnet.co.uk/francos-role/ | 2020-09-23T22:13:20Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400212959.12/warc/CC-MAIN-20200923211300-20200924001300-00409.warc.gz | en | 0.988905 | 2,966 |

Colchester United got back to winning ways on Saturday after coming from a goal behind to comfortably beat Crewe Alexandra 3-1 at the Weston Homes Community Stadium.
Jordan Bowery opened the scoring for the visitors but a brace from Mikael Mandron and another from Tom Eastman secured all three points for the U’s.
The result moved the U's up to thirteenth and they have started some genuine momentum now, with just one defeat in the last seven.
Former U’s striker Chris Porter had the first real chance of the game, but after being put through on goal the striker poked his effort the wrong side of the post.
However, just eight minutes later, Crewe did break the deadlock. The ball found its way to Bowery at the back post, and his shot just about squirmed under the body of Sam Walker to give Crewe the lead.
Five minutes before the half the U’s drew level through Frenchman Mandron. Kyel Reid whipped in a left footed corner which evaded everyone and fell perfectly to Mandron who made no mistake and lashed past Dave Richards to net his fifth goal of the season.
Brandon Hanlan almost gave the U’s the perfect start to second half, but after being put through by Ryan Jackson his shot brushed the side netting and went wide.
With 60 minutes gone, the U’s led for the first time through a rare Tom Eastman goal. After some good work from loanee Brandon Comley, Eastman nodded in at the second time of asking after his initial shot crashed back off the bar.
It was all Col U and a few minutes later, Mandron slipped his striking partner Hanlan in on goal, but his shot flashed over the Crewe crossbar.
The Colchester United pressure was rewarded and on 71 minutes Mandron bagged his second of the game. Jackson drove forward from right wing back and whipped in a low cross which was met perfectly from the Frenchman as he guided it past Richards to give the U’s a two goal cushion.
The last chance of the game fell to substitute Craig Slater, who intercepted a loose pass and tried his luck from 25 yards, but his powerful strike was beaten away by Richards.
The 3-1 victory means its seven points out of a possible nine for the U’s, with John McGreal’s side looking to improve on that away to Barnet on the 14th of November. | <urn:uuid:597ecbbb-36b6-4f62-8e5e-2818774230de> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.cu-fc.com/fixtures/fixtures/first-team/201718/october/colchester-united-vs-crewe-alexandra-on-28-oct-17/ | 2020-09-23T23:22:23Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400212959.12/warc/CC-MAIN-20200923211300-20200924001300-00409.warc.gz | en | 0.976729 | 510 |

We study the kinematic properties of the Eastern Banded Structure (EBS) and Hydra I overdensity using exquisite proper motions derived from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and Gaia source catalogue. Main sequence turn-off stars in the vicinity of the EBS are identified from SDSS photometry; we use the proper motions and, where applicable, spectroscopic measurements of these stars to probe the kinematics of this apparent stream. We find that the EBS and Hydra I share common kinematic and chemical properties with the nearby Monoceros Ring. In particular, the proper motions of the EBS, like Monoceros, are indicative of prograde rotation (Vϕ ∼ 180–220 km s−1), which is similar to the Galactic thick disc. The kinematic structure of stars in the vicinity of the EBS suggests that it is not a distinct stellar stream, but rather marks the ‘edge’ of the Monoceros Ring. The EBS and Hydra I are the latest substructures to be linked with Monoceros, leaving the Galactic anti-centre a mess of interlinked overdensities which likely share a unified, Galactic disc origin. | <urn:uuid:9550d1ad-b2eb-405c-8871-5c8539171770> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.dur.ac.uk/research/directory/staff/?mode=pdetail&id=15257&pdetail=113826 | 2020-09-23T22:36:18Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400212959.12/warc/CC-MAIN-20200923211300-20200924001300-00409.warc.gz | en | 0.815315 | 390 |
Woman sentenced for throwing cats
PUBLISHED: 16:21 28 June 2019 | UPDATED: 09:05 29 June 2019
A woman who threw two cats was today given a community sentence.
April Hawes, 36, admitted picking up the pets and flinging them at her neighbour's home.
King's Lynn magistrates heard she had entered a guilty plea to causing suffering to a protected animal on March 1 at an earlier hearing.
Hawes was caught by a CCTV camera installed by her neighbour in Banyard Court, Dereham.
Josephine Jones, prosecuting, said in interview Hawes admitted the person seen throwing the cats was her.
"She just swung her arm, she was surprised on each occasion how far the cat flew," she said.
Miss Jones said Hawes was annoyed that the cats kept coming into her home.
You may also want to watch:
The court was shown video footage of Hawes throwing one cat, which flew around 9m.
On the footage, Hawes can be heard screaming that she hoped the complainant could see it on CCTV and asked if she would be cleaning her house.
In interview Hawes had said she did not wish to cause harm and was remorseful, the court was told. She said she had not wished to throw either cat as far as it went.
While the animals suffered soft tissue damage, they did not require veterinary treatment and their owner was not seeking compensation.
Anne-Marie Sheridan, defending Hawes, said she suffered post traumatic stress disorder.
She said she had been woken by her neighbour's cats, which had got into her home, gone through her bin and sprayed. She said she had previously asked the council to stop the animals coming into her home but no action had been taken.
Miss Sheridan added Hawes had to leave her window open to allow her own cats to come and go from her property.
Magistrates sentenced Hawes to a 12-month community order with 30 days' rehabilitation activity.
She was also ordered to pay £85 in costs and a victim surcharge of £85.

Travel reviews by Mr D. from Cambridge
Total number of trips
Lodges stayed in
My Sep 2019 trip
Tanzania and 1 other country between 4 Sep 2019 and 14 Sep 2019
However our experience with Expert Africa did not live up to expectations. We chose Expert Africa because of their reputation and reliability which unfortunately for us proved not to be the case. Our main areas of concern being.
Wrong information regarding being able to book our flights to Africa. Also no proper discussion re: internal flight options.
Receiving incorrect forms and documents.
Poor advice on immunisation requirements.
MOST IMPORTANT. At no time were we informed that the gates to Tarangire National Park closed at 6:00pm. No one is allowed access after that time. If our flight had not been changed 2 weeks before our holiday we would never have reached our first lodge. A lack of awareness of this caused much stress to us, our guide and our lodge staff."
We were delighted these travellers had such a good trip overall and enjoyed all the camps they stayed at with their Lemala guide. However we were very disappointed to read their feedback about Expert Africa’s careful preparation for their trip.
These travellers, in common with all our UK-based clients, were offered the option of booking their international flights with Expert Africa or independently. We can sometimes offer very good contract fares, and booking flights with Expert Africa gives the benefit of full ATOL protection. However as a safari specialist rather than a long-haul flights agent, we are not always able to match the airlines’ own fares and many of our travellers choose to book independently to reduce costs, which is what these travellers decided to do. Later strike action by British Airways, which fortunately did not affect them, caused them serious concern in the weeks before their trip.
These travellers wanted to avoid all unnecessary internal and regional flights. Out of their airline safety concerns, which we did our best to assuage, they chose only to book on one of the available airlines which limited their choice of flights. We had extensive discussions about the options and at their request only booked one essential flight from Nairobi to Kilimanjaro. We made arrangements to do all their other transfers by road, including their transfer back from Tanzania to Nairobi.
Our advice on immunisations is general advice culled from decades of our own experience. Expert Africa does not have any medically trained staff and we always advise, both on the phone and in our written information, that all our travellers should get specialist advice from their travel health advisor (specialist clinic or GP practice) well before travelling.
Most parks in Africa close at sunset, and Tarangire is no exception, however transfer arrangements always take account of these timings. We were fully aware throughout of the need to get these travellers to Tarangire as quickly as possible and we confirmed clear arrangements with Lemala for their driver-guide to ensure their unusually late arrival would cause no problems at all. Their lodge and driver were fully aware of the timings and arrangements and plans had been made accordingly. Their late arrival arose from choosing to take a late flight on the only airline acceptable to these travellers, followed by a road transfer to Tarangire rather than the normal short safari flight that most travellers use.
We were very sorry that these travellers felt in any way uninformed or distressed at any stage in the planning of their trip, or during the trip itself. We take great care to build itineraries to exactly the specifications requested. However on occasions, as when avoiding flying when at all possible while still keeping within budget and to a limited number of days, delivering the perfect itinerary can be challenging. We have learned from this experience and while we believe we did the very best job possible for these travellers, we will take even greater care in future to advise travellers of the impact of their choices on their safaris.

Identical twins are living proof that our genes contribute to, but don’t completely determine our behaviour. But what about our faith? Does our DNA affect our beliefs or how we express them? Denis Alexander and Nell Whiteway have spent the last couple of years working on a project at the Faraday Institute ‘Genes, Determinism and God’*. Nell spoke on the genetics of religious behaviour last month, as part of the Wesley Methodist church Science meets Faith lecture series.
Any parent of identical twins knows that identical DNA does not equal identical personalities. On the other hand, twins do share many characteristics – even if they grow up in separate families – which makes them an ideal population for geneticists to look at.
Twin studies compare a trait (such as frequency of church attendance) between sets of identical and non-identical twins. The theory is that if the trait has a genetic basis, identical twins will be very similar to each other because they share all of their DNA. Non-identical twins will be less similar to each other, because they share only about half of their DNA.
The statistical result from a twin study doesn’t tell you anything about the probability of inheriting the trait from your parents (if many genes are involved, it’s unlikely it can be easily passed from one generation to another) but it does indicate how likely it is that the difference in behaviour might be caused by one or more genes.
Geneticists have been studying different aspects of religiosity since the 1990s. About 16 twin studies have been done, mostly in the US, and mostly by questionnaires. Participants were asked questions about their church attendance, religious values, personal devotion, or spirituality.
The statistics for every religious trait studied indicated that there was a small but significant genetic component involved, the only exception being choice of religion or denomination, although the differences in variation uncovered were themselves very different in the studies carried out. So genes could be involved in religiosity in some way, but it’s difficult to say how much, or whether one particular religious trait has more of a genetic basis than another.
An obvious alternative explanation comes from studies showing that there is a lower contribution of genetic factors to religious behaviour amongst children, compared to adults. Identical twins spend more time socialising with each other in adulthood than do non-identical twins, and that fact alone could easily explain the differences in religious practice between non-identical adult twins and identical twins. So genetic variation might not be involved at all.
The statistics from these studies also show that the influence of environmental factors is just as significant, or sometimes more significant, than the possible effect of genes. As I can tell from comments on this blog, personal experience can play a big part in influencing a person’s faith decisions.
So, while their findings may or may not be conclusive, what can these studies tell us about faith? As Denis Alexander explained in his recent Cambridge Paper on Genes, Determinism and God, each one of us started as a single cell and developed to adulthood through the integrated action of both genetic and environmental factors that were woven together over time into a coherent whole. To try to separate elements of that development out and say which are the most important elements doesn’t always make sense.
As Nell pointed out in her talk, the factor that these behavioural studies ignored was choice. The assumption is often that we are determined by a combination of our biological makeup and the environment we live in, but the variability between studies shows how fleeting these influences are. We decide to follow different paths, and that affects our future behaviour. Choice is a real factor.
Nell finished her lecture by saying that ‘if…there is a genetic predisposition to belief, does that give some people an unfair advantage? If your genes pre-dispose you to be rational, sceptical and…you grow up in a secularised Western nation with atheistic parents, your chances of believing in any God or performing any form of religious observance might be pretty low. This is a problem if we think that God demands specific forms of religiousness as a pre-requisite to salvation…However, at least in the Christian tradition, God asks for no pre-conditions. Grace is freely given to all. Any genetic or environmental influence that seems to push in the direction of unbelief should therefore be seen as a challenge, not as a condemnation. There is nothing in the science of religious belief to suggest that universal grace cannot be recognised and received by everyone.’

Cristiano Ronaldo became Europe’s all-time leading scorer in international football as he registered in Portugal’s 1-0 win over Morocco at the 2018 World Cup on Wednesday afternoon.
Ronaldo’s fourth-minute goal moved him past the legendary Ferenc Puskas onto 85, and now only Iran’s Ali Daei has scored more international goals (109) than the Real Madrid forward.
The victory has moved Portugal onto four points in Group B, while Morocco have been eliminated from the competition with their second defeat in Russia.
Portugal boss Fernando Santos made one change to the team that started against Spain last time out, with Joao Mario taking the place of Bruno Fernandes on the left.
As for Morocco, head coach Herve Renard has made three changes to the team that lost 1-0 to Iran, with Manuel da Costa, Nabil Dirar and Khalid Boutaib taking the places of Romain Saiss, Amine Harit and Ayoub El Kaabi.
Boutaib had the first half-chance of the match in the second minute, but Morocco’s number 13 could only flick his header wide of Rui Patricio’s post.
Portugal made the breakthrough in the fourth minute, however, when Ronaldo headed a Joao Moutinho cross into the back of the net from close range to score his fourth goal of the tournament thus far.
Ronaldo had another half-chance in the ninth minute following good work from Portugal left-back Raphael Guerreiro, but the Real Madrid forward dragged his attempt wide of the post.
Morocco had an opportunity of their own in the 12th minute when Medhi Benatia met a corner from the right, but Patricio was on hand to make a smart save.
Hakim Ziyech also tested the Portugal goalkeeper from distance in the 22nd minute, and Morocco were the team on the front foot as they attempted to level the scores.
Goncalo Guedes had the opportunity to double Portugal’s lead late in the first period when he broke into the opposing penalty box, but the attacker could not find a route past Morocco stopper Munir.
Younes Belhanda then headed a corner wide of the Portugal post late in the first period as chances continued to arrive.
Belhanda came even closer just before the hour when he headed towards the bottom corner, only for Patricio to pull off an outstanding save to keep Portugal ahead.
Benatia then struck over the Portugal crossbar in the 61st minute as Morocco passed up another excellent chance. Ziyech was next to try his luck for the Moroccans as he lifted a free kick over the goal in the 68th minute.
Renard’s team continued to dominate the possession as the match entered its final 15 minutes, but Portugal were remaining strong at the back as they closed on their first win of the tournament.
Benatia headed another Morocco free kick wide of the post 10 minutes from time, before Dirar fired over the crossbar from distance shortly after.
Ronaldo had a shout for a penalty in the latter stages when he went down under a challenge from Amrabat, but the referee was not interested. It mattered little in terms of the result, however, as Portugal closed out the final stages to pick up a vital win.
Next up for Portugal is their final group match with Iran on June 25, while Morocco – who came close to a late leveller through Ziyech and Benatia – will finish their 2018 World Cup against Spain on the same day.
PORTUGAL (4-4-2): Patricio; Cedric, Pepe, Fonte, Guerreiro; Mario (Bruno Fernandes 60′), Moutinho (A.Silva 89′), Carvalho, B.Silva (Martins 59′); Guedes, Ronaldo
MOROCCO (4-2-3-1): Munir; Diarar, Benatia, Da Costa, Hakimi; El Ahmadi (Fajr 86′), Boussoufa; N.Amrabat, Belhanda (Carcela 75′), Ziyech; Boutaib (El Kaabi 70′)

Its legs fold under to provide the lower height and stability needed when you're using it as a base for bench tools, and its all-steel construction and rubber feet ensure a stable, strong work surface that supports up to 550 pounds. All in all, we were pretty impressed. With features like these, it's no wonder the Workmate is a popular choice for light-duty and home shop use.
