The Blue Swan Daily brings you a roundup of the most thought-provoking and interesting comments from those industry leaders in the know.
IAG CEO Willie Walsh on the UK's air passenger duty (APD):
"British consumers are losing out because of APD. In Spain and France, LEVEL can offer lower fares than it can in the UK – and that goes for other longhaul low cost airlines too…. MPs need to know that APD undermines our ability to introduce new low cost flights that would benefit their constituents. If APD was axed, IAG could open new routes and operate LEVEL from regional airports".
Air Peace chairman and CEO Allen Onyema on the implementation of the Single African Air Transport Market:
"When we say that this Single African Air Transport Market does not favour us, it is not because we cannot compete. It means that it does not favour us at this stage, except [if] a level playing field is created. We must try to protect our own in this country. If we don't protect our own airlines, they will continue to struggle".
Tourism Ireland CEO Niall Gibbons on Ryanair's plans to launch services from Liverpool, Manchester and Bristol to Shannon Airport during summer 2018:
"As our nearest neighbour and our largest market for overseas tourism, Britain remains a priority for us and we have a very busy marketing programme rolling out there right now. As an island the importance of convenient flights cannot be overstated – they are critical to achieving growth in inbound tourism".
Air France-KLM chairman and CEO Jean-Marc Janaillac on the group's distribution strategy and IATA's NDC:
"The aim is to develop direct sales contact on our websites and via IATA NDC". Mr Janaillac expects NDC will "allow the distribution of rich content and differentiated offers, facilitate the sale of ancillary products and creates a base for consistent response to customer needs on all channels and touch points".
airBaltic CEO Martin Gauss on the introduction of Bombardier CSeries aircraft to its fleet:
"We have a very good environment at the moment in Europe for airlines in general… We are taking more aircraft, six more this year, six more next year and then transitioning to an all CSeries fleet in the future". Mr Gauss added that the aircraft allows to "open new routes which maybe don't make sense for a 220 seater". Mr Gauss said: "We see ourselves in a position to open up new routes and add them to the Riga hub or to the Baltics, which haven't been served yet".
Royal Jordanian Airlines CEO Stefan Pichler on the company's five year turnaround plan to compete better with LCCs:
"Our plan is not about market share and not about opening new markets… Our plan is making money every year, full stop", he said. Mr Pichler said hot meals have largely been replaced by cold snacks on most services, adding: "We try to play the low cost game in Jordan… We have very attractive fares, we have non-refundable cheap fares, and we grow the market".
Qatar Airways CEO Akbar Al Baker on the blockade imposed on Qatar by Saudi Arabia and other countries in the region:
"We've only lost the routes in the blockaded countries, but we have replaced them with new routes and we have expanded our network usually and we are continuing to do so. We are continuing to grow, so the main purpose of the blockades have failed. Yes it has increased operating costs, and has also put a financial strain on the airline into this is why I mentioned to you last November that our bottom-line will be affected and Qatar Airlines will post its first loss from the last seven years". He questioned: "What was achieved by our adversaries in this blockade? Zero…They failed in intimidating our country, in putting us against the wall, trying to take over our sovereignty, trying to dictate our foreign policy, trying to dictate who our friends will be". He added: "The only progress that I see in this is President Trump coming in on the side of Qatar and making it very clear that this blockade should end…We're hoping that President Trump will impose enough pressure on our neighbours".

So almost a year ago (OMG – stay tuned on news about that) when I was throwing around the idea of Cheribomb Retro I had no idea the amazing underground community that there is for this amazing stuff. And like you do, you talk to other business owners, and I met Kristin from My Favourite Obsession. She was a cool chick, she stocked stuff with a slightly edgier side than my own beautiful stuff, and she was funny, she was cool and we just clicked. Fast forward nearly a year and we've hooked up. What does that mean for you? It means you can buy even more amazing gear from Cheribomb Retro at the affordable retro prices you've come to expect.

Morning All!
\r\nThis is my final update from Australia. We've gone all the way south to Melbourne. The weather has got colder again, I definitely preferred it back up in Queensland, much warmer. It was less dangerous too! I ended up being caught in the mouth of a lion and then when we went to the Old Melbourne Gaol I managed to get myself in trouble and had my photography taken as if I was a prisoner and being put in Ned Kellys old helmet. I really felt as if I was getting into trouble all over the place, so it's probably best that I'm heading back to Europe again! I'm sure I'm not the only bear that has got stuck in Ned Kelly's helmet though, or maybe that's my imagination!
\r\nNow, the important question is, where to go next?
\r\nlots of love

Just gotta share. Here are the first two reviews for REFLECTIONS (Whisper Cape, book 2) on Amazon
By Anne Carter "StarCrossed"
This review is from: REFLECTIONS (Whisper Cape, Book 2) (Kindle Edition)When I finished WHISPER CAPE, I immediately asked the author if she was working on another and it would become a series. She told me yes, and it would be about Maia & Gerry. I was so excited and now, REFLECTIONS does not disappoint! This second book chronicles the challenges faced by this loving couple--a mystery from Gerry's past, a supernatural stalker and a shocking murder--all while they try to sort out their evolving feelings and future. Previously loved characters Addie & Cael are around to join in all the fun!
Great second book!!, October 11, 2012
By Christin L. Alley
This review is from: REFLECTIONS (Whisper Cape, Book 2) (Kindle Edition)
I finished the book last night. It was another page-turner, I had a hard time putting it down to go to sleep. The plot had a lot of great twists and turns; your character development showed great depth and it induced very strong emotions in me as a reader. I am now on the edge of my seat to read the next one, as this one was a cliffhanger ending.
And then, this morning, I woke up to see this
So I just had to share!

As a Texan, my large family loves Tex-Mex. We use any season as an excuse for loading up on this quick and easy Tejas Taco Queso.
Superbowl Sunday or Easter, there's never a wrong time for queso in Texas!
With so many little children I can't make anything too spicy (apparently I haven't raised them right) so this recipe s a go-to alongside some good ole' H-E-B Yellow Corn Tortilla Chips!
If you want to increase the spice you can up the amount of cayenne pepper.
If you don't have velveeta (or not enough) I sometimes substitute sliced cheese to supplement.
Make More Margin in Your LifeDownload Ebook Now!
Little ones can make this in the microwave (just make sure they take it out every minute and give it a good stir).
Cut the cheese into small cubes. Next add milk and cheese to saucepan over medium heat. Add cayenne and taco seasoning. Stir in both cans of chili. Melt over medium heat. Voila!
Or Yee-Haw if you are from Texas!

Ad Jam reacted to a post in a topic: Non-Turkish speaking kids attending public schools?
What does it really mean by 1+1, 2+1, 3+2?
Ad Jam posted a topic in Turkey PropertyHi all, In my understanding for most of property advertisement in Turkish, they will provide the rooms arrangement as 3+1 which translates to 3 bedrooms + 1 living room. How about if the arrangement stated as 3+2, does it means that it has 2 living rooms? Is it suitable if one of the living room converted as bedroom as well? I am considering to look up for the apartment whether it has 3+1 or 2+2 by considering the latter I can convert it as bedroom to accommodate any guest. Can anybody explain to me graphically (if any) showing the floor plan of typical apartment in Turkey that have the 3+2 / 4+2 etc arrangement? I can visually imagine the 1+1, 2+1, 3+1 ... as it available online. Cheers Ad Jam

Spoiler alert: This post contains spoilers from this week's season premiere of Succession.
HBO's Succession started its second season Sunday night in a very different position than it was in last summer. With the end of Game of Thrones, Succession is now arguably HBO's buzziest drama, and while the level of acclaim and viewer enthusiasm isn't at Westeros levels, anticipation was definitely high. Fortunately, with a strong kick-off to this season's major storyline (Logan maneuvering to take the company to #1 among all legacy media), along with the absurdly vulgar comedy elements that helped Succession rise above last year's competition (including an episode-long runner about rotting raccoon carcasses stuffed up the chimney of the Roy family summer home) the Season 2 premiere did not disappoint.
After loving the show's first season, and worrying that the second might be a letdown, I studied the premiere for signs of creative slack, and arrived at some measure of concern over one character in particular, who threatens to take Succession down from the inside, like a disgruntled child attempting a corporate takeover from within. I'm worried there might be a Shiv problem.
Or rather, the environment is fertile for a Shiv problem. Of course, the folks who make Succession — including creator Jesse Armstrong — could avoid this by sticking to what makes the show great. However, in order to do so, they'll need to run counter to the increasing popularity of one of its best characters. And at this point in the series, it's hard not to love Shiv. Played by Sarah Snook with a mixture of cunning and bemusement, Shiv is the youngest of the four Roy siblings, and the one who was best able to create an identity for herself beyond the family business. True, she's always maintained her ties to the Roy clan, and she spent much of Season 1 trying to figure out the most advantageous way to leverage her family's standing to benefit her position as a political operative, working on the presidential campaign of a Bernie Sanders-esque populist. And true, she also spent much of Season 1 cheating on her fiancé Tom (Matthew Macfadyen) with a sleazy ex-boyfriend who was working on the campaign with her. But Shiv was so good at what she did, and so successful at compartmentalizing her family hangups from her political ambitions, as well as her sexual interludes with her ex from a genuine (if deeply strange) partnership with Tom, that it was hard to hate her. Couple that with the fact that everyone else on the show is so much worse than her — from her devil of a father, to her Machiavellian stepmother, to sniveling Kendall, to passively cruel Roman — and before long, Shiv went from being the least-worst Roy to everyone's favorite character.
This was borne out in a big way in this week's season premiere, both onscreen and off. Onscreen, Logan Roy (Brian Cox) gathered his children at the family's stinking summer home (in the middle of winter) in order to ask their advice: In the face of a hostile takeover attempt (one that Kendall abandoned but which is still being carried out by Stewy and Sandy), should he sell the company or stick around and fight? Kendall is too shell-shocked by the events of last season's finale to offer much of a coherent plan; Roman avoids giving real answer until he gets his dad behind closed doors and ultimately advises a slash-and-burn course of action ("play the markets [...] fucking startups, shitting on pension funds"); and eldest son Connor is still entertaining quixotic plans to run for president. Not only is Shiv the only viable candidate to take over Waystar Royco when Logan steps down, but she rattles off an incredibly competent and forward thinking plan to do so. And if that wasn't enough, she allows her humanity to peek through that formidable veneer to show just how much it would mean to her if Logan were to hand her the company. As a viewer, it was all I could do not to cheer.
Which is exactly the problem. The secret of Succession is that it threads the needle, playing as a show about the kind of rich masters of the universe that continually wreck things for the rest of the country, while continuing to be an entertaining watch that doesn't leave viewers feeling dirty afterwards. The show's characters are one-percenters whose amoral actions and petty grievances repeatedly screw things up for themselves. It's a stealth comedy in the skin of the kind of antihero shows we've been conditioned to like and respect. Shiv is the character who comes closest to tipping that delicate balance because we want her to win too much. In a cursory examination of the morning-after reactions to Season 2's premiere, enthusiasm for Shiv was at an all-time high. In short, she's the queen of this show, at least for the moment.
Of course, this isn't necessarily some harbinger of doom, mostly because Armstrong and his team have yet to betray any sense that they don't get it. Shiv hasn't become the hero of this series — not yet, anyway. In her back-room wranglings, she managed to secure a position for Tom as the head of global news broadcasting, despite the fact that she told Logan she would ultimately want to ditch Waystar's stake in news entirely. She's also, as of this week's episode, still working for Gil's campaign. And given everything we know about her — supremely self-interested and holding no strong political beliefs of her own — it's very likely she'll ultimately screw over a very worthy political cause in order to get what she wants.
In other words, there are plenty of avenues available for Shiv to further complicate herself and obliterate any notions that she's the "good" Roy, because quite likely, there are no good Roys. And that's just the way it should be.

Former Harris County treasurer files $1 million suit after water poured on his head
The former Harris County treasurer has sued a man for $1 million after water was poured on his head during a news conference about HISD in December.
Orlando Sanchez, who lost his re-election campaign in November, filed suit on Thursday against Steve Striever.
Sanchez and his attorney said that Striever assaulted Sanchez by "offensive physical contact" during the news conference on Dec. 28, and that he "knew or reasonably should have believed that Orlando Sanchez would regard the contact as offensive or provocative."
"It's not about the physical damage, it's about the bigger effect the damage has," Sanchez's attorney Hector G. Longoria said. "It's the visceral reaction it causes."
Striever, reached on Friday by phone, declined to comment.
Video from KHOU showed Sanchez speaking to reporters as protesters crowded around him, yelling things such as "shame." The water was poured on the former treasurer, dripping down his face, before a man could be seen dashing off.
Sanchez held the press conference to call for the state to begin the process of taking over Houston Independent School District, he said. Sanchez directed further comment to his attorney.
"Mr. Sanchez was there talking about a very important issue about HISD and its standards and how it's failing the minority community," Longoria said. "I think that's a topic that the public in general should be able to have a good debate about and not in this fashion. … When does it stop?"
The $1 million includes relief for past and future mental anguish, according to the lawsuit. The amount would ultimately be for the jury to decide, Longoria said.
Sanchez also demanded a jury trial and requested that Striever turn over material relevant to the incident, including any videos, documents, texts, or phone calls about the press conference or pouring water on Sanchez's head.

Monitor more closely
As a 'member' of Swindon Silicon (sic) Systems I worked in Clifton Street School for more than 20 years and am naturally very sorry to read about the building's current derelict state (SA, September 18).
Of course the developer should reinstate the roof and interior but is that going to happen?
More likely he will walk away, leaving Swindon with the problem we have with the Mechanics' Institute and the Locarno.
It hurts me to suggest it but perhaps a pragmatic approach is best; allow the developer to continue with his demolition but fine him as harshly as possible for abuse of planning laws. The lesson for the council is surely that redevelopments must be more closely monitored so that rogue developers are not able to behave in this fashion in future.

Promise not kept
Politicians of all parties never cease to amaze, particularly with their inability to tell the truth or honour a promise.
And so it is with the leader of the Labour Party who writes in a national newspaper that he wants to offer the people of the UK a choice between remaining in the EU and – yes, you guessed it – leaving the EU.
To ensure no misunderstanding he wants to call this event a referendum and to make sure the electorate understand the terms of the referendum, Jeremy Corbyn 'pledges' that he "will carry out whatever the people decide".
Now where have we heard that 'promise' before? And that's the problem; Labour and Conservatives promised to respect the people's vote as expressed in the 2016 referendum – indeed the two main parties confirmed that promise in their respective election manifestos in 2017. But they didn't intend to keep the promise, and have done nothing but attempt to thwart it using parliamentary procedures and the courts.
A politician's promise is worthless, a pledge meaningless, and a vow of no consequence. Sadly, the political class is characterised by a joke currently doing the rounds – "how can you tell when a politician's lying? Their lips move!" So sad, but oh so true.

Dysfunctional system
My wife and I have been involved in environmental and social justice issues for more than 30 years, including a campaign named Cap and Share which offered a realistic solution to global warming and the depletion of resources including those upon which renewable energy depends.
I came to the conclusion 40 years ago that the more affluent in world society had to live more simply. I find no reason to change that view. The problem is that we have a dysfunctional economic system that demands that we consume more.
I don't think that realistic solutions to the global economic and social crisis humanity faces can be found without a widespread understanding of the links between economic growth and global warming.
Also in order to avoid widespread depression amongst young people on account of the global warming message, we must provide them with practical ideas for coping with the decline in the economy (increasingly known as 'degrowth') that will be the consequence of diminishing resources of oil, gas and other carbon fuels and rare metals upon which renewables depend and/or responding to the global warming emergency.

Carbon and Communities: Linking Carbon Science with Public Policy and Resource Management in the Northeastern United States
Human activities emit 28 billion metric tons of carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, to the atmosphere each year contributing to climate change. As developing nations industrialize, these emissions will likely increase. In addition, the loss of forest resources for agriculture and development decreases the ability of the Earth to reabsorb, or sequester, some of this carbon dioxide. Today scientists believe that this system—releasing carbon dioxide into the atmosphere while reducing the landscape's capacity to sequester it—may lead to changes in our global and local climate that could have large social, economic, and ecological consequences.
The Hubbard Brook Research Foundation (HBRF) convened a team of scientists to create detailed carbon budgets for eight counties and one city in the northeastern United States to better understand the magnitude of the release and removal of carbon dioxide at a scale meaningful for state and local officials. Analyses of carbon dioxide emissions from transportation, residential, industrial, commercial, and land-use sources are summarized to help communities understand which sources of carbon dioxide can most efficiently be decreased in order to achieve a smaller carbon footprint.
Communities are increasingly interested in addressing climate change at the local level, but require methods to compare the cost and effectiveness of different carbon mitigation strategies over time. HBRF has developed several resources to assist regional planning agencies, local governments, and lawmakers compare the costs and benefits of major carbon mitigation options to reduce net carbon dioxide emissions. These resources, accompanied by scientific information, are intended to help evaluate such key issues as forest management practices, regional planning strategies, land-use decisions, transportation, energy efficiency upgrades, and alternative energy sources.

If the idea of reading is to get to the point, it becomes more and more evident to me that the point in music has to have something to do with spontaneity. The best way to evoke that is to cultivate listening for spontaneity, and the best way to do that is to listen to new music by young composers (some of whom are more involved with spontaneity than others, but it is interesting to taste the difference in music that is being performed for the first time).
There is not just the spontaneity of the composer, but also of the performer--many of whom, let's face it, are terrified at the prospect. Nothing in their training prepares them for what might happen if they let go.... I have performed with musicians who would never let anything really happen while in the midst of a huge uplift by Dvorak, say, or Beethoven. Everything would stay measurable and safe, impervious either to criticism or judgment. Who cares?
I say let it rip.

Technology plays an ever-increasing role in the healthcare industry. From improving communications between doctors and patients to managing clinical staff, secure management systems, patient portals, and mobile-friendly applications are essential in today's health field. Susco worked with the risk management company CareRise to update their legacy system in order to better meet these growing demands and deliver fast, reliable, and easily accessible reporting.
CareRise serves the healthcare and insurance industries with risk management software that combines personalized technical support with a comprehensive technology platform and real-time reporting. Founded in 2000, it has been awarded U.S. patents for its software creations in 2008, 2010, and 2014. Today, their technologies help brokerages, insurance agencies, and healthcare facilities securely access risk profiles and assessments in order to improve patient safety and the quality of care delivered.
CareRise had a web-based system for managing their work that was built in the early 2000s and no longer reflected their internal processes and growing needs. The management system contained all their clients, facilities, risk management templates, and reports, but the system was slow and unable to be accessed offline.
The following factors prevented CareRise from meeting their organizational goals:
Susco replaced their custom web-based system with QuickBase and created a custom web portal for offline reporting. QuickBase can now handle much more of their workflow compared to the legacy system, while still incorporating the previous system's functionality and internal processes in order to minimize training and onboarding time with the launch of the new system. Susco's custom client web portal allows CareRise to work and access reports totally offline when onsite at their clients' facilities. The new system is faster, accessible from anywhere, and more secure than ever before.
With years of experience helping clients in the healthcare and insurance industries, our team at Susco understands the imperative need to deliver highly secure software solutions that protect patient confidentiality and sensitive information. We can help convert your legacy system or work with your team to build a custom internal business solution. Give us a call at (504) 323-9017 to discuss your project idea or current challenges.

The Foreground five: October's most-read stories
October's top stories take you on a journey of best practice: from this year's landscape awards to humanitarian place-making in Syria, and from foreign aid put to good use in Vanuatu, to a reminder that urban biodiversity is as old as bird feeding. And that's old…
Today's challenges and stressed environmental conditions demand a new way of intervening in the landscape, and of understanding the scales of effective practice.
Binary distinctions between natural and urban environments fail to account for the layered and interdependent ecologies that support both human and non-human well-being – something that healthy cities have known for centuries.
The 2018 national awards is a celebration of what landscape architecture can do and be, demonstrating a diverse range of ideas, tools and approaches to meet the challenges of tomorrow.
Foreign aid can sometimes come with dubious strings attached. In the wake of cyclone Pam, however, a foreshore redevelopment in Vanuatu's Port Vila, funded by New Zealand, is a case-study in win-win place-making.
A petition against the proposed use of the Sydney Opera house as a billboard for a forthcoming horse race, has sparked a wave of opposition, in turn catalysing a debate about who owns the city.

5 Convenient And Whole Food Dishes For Your Conscious Lifestyle
The more that we learn about nutrition, the more it seems that we need to eat the way humans did hundreds of years ago. Recent studies seems to be pointing us in the direction of gobbling mostly on "whole foods" which are food items that are as close to their natural form as possible.
Most health experts and nutritionist believes that eating more whole foods is the best way to prevent diseases and improve our overall health. Whole foods such as legumes, nuts, whole grains, fruits, and vegetables retain their fiber and also their whole portfolio of beneficial nutrients and phytochemicals which are usually removed in process foods.
And to those people who are extremely conscious about their diet and lifestyles, they make sure to add in whole foods and minus the processed foods in their meal plans for ultimate healthy living.
Here are five delicious whole food dishes you can add to your conscious diet plan!
Red Kidney Bean Curry
Rajmah Chawal or red kidney bean curry that is usually served with rice is a traditional and rustic Indian meal cooked in most households in India. This whole food dish is originally a staple of village kitchen that is simple to prepare, nutritious and is naturally vegan, gluten-free and suited for people who suffer from allergies.
In tradition, red kidney beans or the "rajmah" are soaked in water the night before and then cooked until it is tender the next day.
For your convenience, you can also use canned red beans, pre-ground spices, and canned crushed tomatoes to significantly cut down the preparation time and make it suitable for a quick weeknight meal.
And although this dish is traditionally served with steamed, white rice, you can also add a touch of saffron to make it more special. If you want a twist on the tradition, you can also serve this nutritious dish with herby couscous, bulgur wheat or quinoa.
Instant Pot Chicken Noodle Soup
We all know the soup that makes us feel better when the flu or cold virus hit us. A warm sip on a hearty bowl of chicken soup not only gives you warmth during the chilly winter season, but it also helps you get back on your feet. What makes it even better is this nutritious whole food dish can be made in Instant Pot or in one of the best soup and smoothie making machines, which can make it cook in no time.
Get the healing and warmth that your body deserves on a chilly morning, without sabotaging your conscious lifestyle.
Golden Crust Brussels Sprout Dish
Love Brussels sprouts? Need to cook a nutritious dish in only a short amount of time? Well, you can do both with this convenient recipe dish. This is a great way to eat Brussels sprout while indulging a bit on cheese.
You only need to cut the sprouts in half and cooked them until they are deliciously tender inside with a perfectly brown crust on the outside. Grate your favorite cheese on top and finish it off with some toasted hazelnuts. Indulge in nutritious food with a bit of guilt topping.
Paleo Shepherd's Pie + Roasted Veggies
The Shepherd's Pei first appears on dining tables in the late 1700s. Back then, housewives were on the frugal sides and looked for ways to transform leftovers into a meal and never waste any food. The shepherd's pie is that delicious result of such frugal necessities.
However, in more ways than one, this dish is not your typical shepherd's pie. This dish is filled with roasted whole veggies to up your veggie intake and is a great meal for those who want to remove starches and grains from their diets. Loaded with veggies and topped with cauliflower topping, this dish is an excellent low carb and nutritious alternative to the traditional Shepherd's Pie.
Sweet Potato + Apple Latkes
Apples and sweet potato make a great afternoon snack, but when shredded and combined, you can form a unique and crispy dish of latkes. With a bit tangy and sweet taste, these nutritious latkes are perfect with creamy lemon tahini sauce.
You can prepare this fantastic snack for a short amount of time and can be served with kale if you are craving for some nutritious and crunchy leafy greens on the side.

"Stockholm" takes us into the world of advertising specialist Anakin Carver. Each chapter of his life is shared with us as a colorfully, well described episode. During this time period, which appears to be in our near future, everything operates through social networking profiles. The government has deemed these profiles to be mandatory to each citizen. Accepting friendship requests is also deemed mandatory because you don't want to hurt someone by rejecting their request. Privacy is a thing of the past. Advertising, socializing, and consumerism, can all be managed through each person's profile.
In Anakin's case, he meets a Natasha von Ottmann who is a beautiful actress whom he helps make famous. While he is working with her, he also finds himself falling for her. As they work together on his campaign, they have to deal with issues brought forth by others, including Anakin's coworkers. Life is never very easy, but when everything you do is tracked by others, and the main part of your job is to encourage this via social media, life becomes much more difficult and convoluted.
Initially, while I enjoyed the unique idea of taking our current social networking mania one step beyond in a fictionalized story, I felt it was a little far-fetched. But as I sat enjoying this book, I found myself frequently distracted by the buzzing of my cell phone to let me know that I had an incoming email. The majority of these emails were from my Facebook account. As I read people commenting on the state of their health, curiosity over why someone un-friended them, or personal comments about other people's profiles, I began to realize that the author really didn't place this story too far into the future. In spite of my enjoyment of the story, I found this reality to be a bit disturbing.
I highly recommend reading "Stockholm" for two reasons. The first reason is the pure enjoyment that you will get from reading a well written drama that is based upon quirky engaging characters. The second reason is that there is an aspect of reality tied to this plot that I believe we should use as a wake-up call for ourselves so that we be more aware of how much personal information we share via social networking. If in doubt, leave it out!

One of the British biggest online betting companies but an operator with a global reach, 888 Holdings, has been forced to pay a record penalty package of nearly $10 million for not helping vulnerable customers to limit the damage of their gambling addictions.
Undetected Technical Glitch
The UK Gambling Commission said that 888 failed to protect vulnerable players from addictive gambling since a technical glitch went undetected for a "prolonged period of time". The technical failure in the system allowed more than 7,000 customers to keep accessing one of 888's platforms between October 2015 and September 2016 and to deposit $4.5 million even though they previously agreed to a self-exclusion deal.
Self-exclusion is a facility offered by gambling sites for players who fear they have become addicted to gambling and decided to stop gambling.
They should be excluded from the site for at least six months and the sites should be supportive in their decision but in this case the players were able to access their accounts on 888's bingo platform, although they self-excluded from the 888 casino, poker and sport platform, and then continued to gamble for 13 months.
Failure to Detect Problem Gambling Red Flags
Except for the fact that 888 didn't have self-exclusion procedures in place, it also failed to recognize visible signs of problem gambling behaviour displayed by an individual customer which finally resulted in criminal activity.
One customer placed a large number of bets, played for 3-4 hours a day and stacked nearly $1.7 million, including $80,000 stolen from their employer. 888's failing to detect this and the lack of interaction with the customer, raised serious concerns about 888's safeguarding of customers at-risk of gambling harm.
"Safeguarding consumers is not optional. This penalty package of just under $10million reflects the seriousness of 888's failings to protect vulnerable customers," said Sarah Harrison, chief executive of the UK Gambling Commission.
Penalty Package
The $10 million sum includes repayment of $4.52 million of deposits made by those customers who chose to self-exclude and also a compensation of $80,000 to the employer from whom money was stolen in that particular case.
The Commission said that a further $4.49 million would be paid to a socially responsible cause with the idea that it helps finance measures to tackle gambling-related harm.
The Commission also ordered an independent audit of 888's processes relating to customer protection for "future assurance".

After my mom died, my dad Joe and I were heartbroken. It felt like we had lost a piece of ourselves. At least, I thought, we had each other still. Little did I know that my father wouldn't live much longer either.
Writing about this is hard. I'm still so angry and sad, although those words are not strong enough to do justice to the way I feel about losing both of my parents, and for losing my father so needlessly. We did everything we could for cancer, but there was no stopping it. I should have done more to help my father, and he should have done more to help himself. I'm in therapy now to handle my grief, and my counselor says this blog might help me release some of these negative feelings. That keeps me going, along with hoping that this story somehow helps others out there who have gone through anything similar.
I told you in my last post how my dad started drinking again right after my mom died. This was a little alarming because I knew he had struggled with alcoholism in the past, but I had never seen it. I had never seen anyone I knew struggle with substance abuse problems at all. I should have done some research, I should have asked for help. But I didn't realize how bad it was until it was too late.
I saw dad drink right after the funeral and even had a couple of whiskeys with him. I didn't understand the nature of addiction and thought that a couple of drinks in an incredibly stressful situation wouldn't hurt anyone.
But dad didn't stop there. He took leave from work for bereavement, and was drinking every day. I would go over to my parents' house, now just my dad's house, after work and find him parked in front of the TV in his armchair nursing more of the brown liquid. He wasn't belligerent, but from his slow, slurred speech I could tell that he had been drinking a lot before I got there.
"Dad, do you think the drinking… is it okay?" I asked timidly. I didn't want to insult him, and I didn't really know what I was talking about.
"Don't worry about it, son," my dad would say sadly, giving me a weak smile and taking another swig. We would sit in companionable silence while I drank a beer and dad worked his way through a bottle of whiskey.

Earlier, French President Emmanuel Macron talked to both Hariri and Saudi Arabian Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, inviting the Lebanese FM to come to France, the Elysees Palace added. Lebanon has been blaming Riyadh of keeping the head of its government hostage after unexpectedly announced his resignation during a visit to Saudi Arabia on November 4. He has remained in the Gulf kingdom since then.

Gateway to the Blues
Washington, DC
St. Louis hometown hero (and NEA Jazz Master) Clark Terry has garnered many honors over a distinguished career, including a star on the St. Louis Walk of Fame. Portrait by Tom Pich
Thanks to Rocco, we know that St. Louis has a long live theater tradition. But the "Gateway to the West? is also hometown to NEA Jazz Masters Henry Townsend and Willie Mae Ford Smith. Yes St. Louis, Missouri, has a rich musical history, dating back to the turn of the 20th century when Scott Joplin made the city his home, writing more than 60 ragtime tunes while living in Missouri.
The confluence of the Missouri and Mississippi Rivers made St. Louis a convenient point for musicians traveling north by steamboat from New Orleans or south from Chicago and Kansas City to stop and perform. It also meant that the city was a good place to start a career, being able to show your talent to those traveling through. Blues singer Victoria Spivey and guitarist extraordinaire Lonnie Johnson started their careers in St. Louis for that very reason. And Miles Davis, after cutting his teeth with Eddie Randle?s band in St. Louis in the early 1940s, got to see the awesome talent of Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie when they came through the city---Miles was soon on his way to NYC after that. And need we mention W.C. Handy naming his most famous song after the city---?St. Louis Blues?---after spending time there?
We'll be checking in with Rocco on his visits to St. Louis and San Diego early next week. See you then!

End of Turnbacks Will Double Number of Trains to Shady Grove
Metrorail's rush-hour service to Rockville will double beginning Monday, Dec. 17, with the elimination of the so-called turnback at the Grosvenor-Strathmore station.
Metrorail's rush-hour service to Rockville will double beginning Monday, Dec. 17, with the elimination of the so-called turnback at the Grosvenor-Strathmore station.
Metro is considering two alternatives that would increase rail service at the Shady Grove, Rockville, Twinbrook and White Flint stations during rush hour and limit the number of trains that turn back at Grosvenor-Strathmore.
The agency is seeking input from riders, via a survey, on how those changes would affect their commute. Feedback from the survey will be provided to the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority Board of Directors in July. If any adjustments are approved, they will take place in December.
Traffic, poor conditions for pedestrians and bicyclists, an aging and unattractive area with little green space — this is how Rockville Pike is today. But with a unanimous vote Monday night to adopt the Rockville Pike Neighborhood Plan, the city's Mayor and Council set a vision for redevelopment that will create a more attractive environment to live, work in and visit, with parks and better options for transportation.
"It is a great compromise and we are moving forward with something that will transform the pike … We've come a long way and it is a wonderful day," Mayor Bridget Donnell Newton said.
A letter from the Mayor and Council to urge Gov. Larry Hogan to fund additional bus service during the Metro Safetrack repairs became a letter thanking him after Hogan announced Monday he'd allocated $1 million in state funds for the shuttles.

New York state has passed a law to make it even easier to have an abortion, giving it the most liberal laws in the US.
The Reproductive Health Act had been blocked for the last twelve years, but became law on Tuesday, following a vote in the state Senate.
It was previously a crime to kill an unborn child after 24 weeks, but this has now been removed from the state's penal code.
Abortion on demand
The new law declares that all women who become pregnant have the "fundamental right" to have an abortion.
The change in legislation also allows medics who are not qualified doctors to carry out abortions.
After 24 weeks, abortions will now be permitted if the mother's "health" is endangered, effectively legalising abortion up to birth for any reason.
The New York State Right to Life group says the law will actually go much further in practice.
It warned that pregnant women whose babies are killed in violent assaults will no longer be able to seek justice, as those who end the life of an unborn child are no longer culpable of homicide.
It also said that the removal of protections relating to failed abortions is tantamount to "authorizing infanticide".
'Lethal injections'
New York's Governor Andrew Cuomo ordered a number of buildings, including One World Trade Center, to be lit up pink to "celebrate" the passing of the Bill.
The pro-life Radiance Foundation said: "Governor Cuomo ordered One World Trade Center – a memorial to the thousands killed by senseless violence and hate – to be lit up in pink to celebrate the unrestricted violence of abortion that treats the unborn with more antipathy than criminals."
Lila Rose, founder of Live Action, another pro-life group, also expressed disgust at the new law, saying "now children up until the ninth month of pregnancy can be given lethal injections and poisoned to death. This is no different than infanticide."

SAN ANTONIO – Four local nonprofits received a big surprise on Thursday.
They received nearly $1 million in donations from philanthropist Kym Rapier.
The charity leaders thought they were just meeting for coffee at Nicha's Mexican Restaurant Thursday morning.
Instead, they were each gifted with checks ranging from $100,000 to $350,000.
Among those nonprofits were the 100 Club of San Antonio, San Antonio Threads, God's Dogs Rescue and the Southside Independent School District.
Representatives for God's Dog Rescue were shocked to receive their $100,000 donation.
"We are just beyond grateful for Kym Rapier and the donation," said Debbie Davis. "It's really more than I expected from anyone so I'm stunned."
The biggest donation of $350,000 went to Southside ISD toward a future medical center on campus that would provide free health care for students.
The new medical center will get $350,000 each year from Kym Rapier's organization over the next three years.
In the end, that adds up to more than $1 million just for Southside ISD.
The donations are part of Rapier's annual $30 million donation to the San Antonio area.

How GPUs [Graphics Processing Units] are shaping the future
When it comes to high performance computing, graphics processing units (GPUs) are king. Our desperation to know the future of high performance computing only serves to fuel more debate on the subject. But with all this talk, there is no crystal ball that clearly points out the way to the future so we have to begin somewhere.
Looking back at the past is a good indicator of where you may be headed next. Growing up, getting a graphics card for their PC was a big deal and even a top priority in life to alot of people. Why? Because it let you run computer games more smoothly. Now both graphics and games are all over which means the success of graphics cards is linked to the success of its software-games.
It is safe to say that play can and does drive innovation in the computer industry. The powerful GPUs we see today are as a result of gamers who itched to run their games with the most realistic graphics possible at the highest resolution at real time speeds hence the need for constant computational innovation in hardware. As gamers take the credit, the same GPU technology is now being massively applied in other fields. GPUs have evolved dramatically because other developers saw the need for different hardware to provide fast high precision calculations for their new applications or simply put something that could solve a million complex problems in parallel.
Designed for computationally intensive tasks like 3D simulation, it is no surprise then that GPUs can be applied to other computationally intensive problems easily. Computer scientists and Cryptocurrency miners have jumped at the chance to repurpose gaming hardware for artificial intelligence applications. The future is has never been brighter for graphics processing units, since expanding from the niche of game enthusiasts.
For certain markets like VR and AR, GPU application is quite obvious but not so in other areas such as IoT and wearables. It is however, justified by the need for higher performance, power efficiency or both to increase adoption. For products with a display like smart watches, GPU's can increase battery life as well as graphic fidelity in addition to solving parallel computing problems which GPUs handle easily.
Ray tracing has been reserved for CPUs, but not anymore. Imagination's PowerVR ray tracing technology used in GPUs can deliver both photorealistic and hyper-realistic graphics onto any screen. This technology will most likely be used in AR/VR headsets, automotive instrument clusters, gaming consoles, foveated rendering, enhancing rasterized graphics, and other applications.
Most likely, you've heard of Bitcoin. This form of virtual currency that can be acquired in two ways: The first is by exchange with traditional currency for it or by 'mining' in a process called cryptocoin mining. With your computer, a CPU can do this for you but a GPU will offer a much faster resource efficient method.
The most notable development from graphic cards however is in the recent release of OpenCL (open computer language specifications). Once put into use, it will actually pull together specialized computer processors with a CPU and GPU for further accelerating the computing. All manner of applications have the potential to benefit from this kind of parallel computing due to the increased amount of data being processed at once.
Industry leaders like NVIDIA, AMD, and Intel have invested heavily in GPU cards seizing the opportunity to put themselves in the thick of things in the promising a world of benefits to the high performance computing community. Facebook has taken things a step further and is sourcing servers that can host up to eight GPU cards for training their neural networks. What's more, Amazon is renting out GPU hardware by the hour on its AWS.
Winding up
Providing better visual experience for the user means higher display resolutions, better quality pixels, and higher refresh rates which always have been the driver for GPU technology in the past. AI and crypto mining are now pushing the limits of GPU technologies out of their previous graphics designer and gamer niches into the mainstream. Tacking on the push for more open standards for accessing the computational power of GPUs will only continue to accelerate our journey to get more out of graphic cards than ever before.

North Texas boys showing mixed results at Southern Regionals
Published 6/16/2012 7:28:40 PM by staff from dallas
Oh how times have changed.
Southern Regionals
used to be a showcase for the Dallas teams. North Texas sides were favorites at almost every age and it was very rare for a Dallas team to not make it out of group play. States like Alabama, Mississippi and Arkansas provided squads that were little more than a speedbump for Dallas teams on their way to deep runs in the Southern Regionals.
But, alas, times have changed.Nowadays the Dallas teams are producing a mixed bag of results at Southern Regionals.
The Under 18s have shown to be stout. Both area squads have their opening two matches and will advance into the knockout rounds. Dallas Texans have squeeked out a pair of 1-0 victories while the State Cup champs AYSES have a pair of 2-1 wins. AYSES meet Florida Rush Nike for the Group A top spot needing a win as they trail on goal differential currently. Dallas Texans only need a draw to win Group C as they face last place Lonestar.
Also having success are the Solar Red 99s who have also won both games. They'll face Oklahoma FC for the group win tomorrow, but both teams are already assured to advance.
FC Dallas 98s are sitting on a win and a draw through two matches. They'll face group leaders Pinecrest Premier of Florida in the last group match.
Otherwise, if you peruse the Southern Regional standings all you will see are North Texas squads in the lower half of the tables. FC Dallas Central 97s have lost both games so far and have failed to even score a goal. The Dallas Texans 96 squad has also gone winless through two games in the U16 division. The Solar Chelsea 95s have a win and a loss so far. They'll need a good result tomorrow to advance from group play.
