Avacta Group LON:AVCT) has entered into an agreement with ADC Therapeutics SA (Lausanne CH) under which the parties will develop jointly Affimer-drug conjugates combining Avacta's Affimer® technology with ADC Therapeutics' pyrrolobenzodiazepine (PBD)-based warhead and linker technologies. This collaboration is expected to harness the benefits of Affimer proteins to selectively and efficiently target ADC Therapeutics' PBD drugs to the sites of tumours with the intention of developing breakthrough oncology treatments.
Based in Lausanne in Switzerland and with operations in the UK and US, ADC Therapeutics is an oncology drug discovery and development company specialising in the development of proprietary antibody drug conjugates (ADCs) that target major haematological malignancies and solid tumours. Its ADCs are highly targeted biopharmaceutical drugs that combine monoclonal antibodies specific to surface antigens present on particular tumour cells with a novel class of highly potent PBD-based warheads via a chemical linker.
ADC Therapeutics has five PBD-based ADCs undergoing clinical trials. These range from landmark Phase II studies to first-in-human trials combined with an extensive pipeline of other preclinical ADCs in development. ADC Therapeutics' is closely linked to and heavily backed by AstraZeneca and its global biologics research and development subsidiary, MedImmune.
Under the terms of the collaboration with DC Therapeutics, Avacta has agreed to generate and optimise Affimer® binders against three as yet undisclosed cancer targets and provide these to ADC Therapeutics to target its proprietary cytotoxic warheads (PBDs) to the site of tumours. ADC Therapeutics will also conduct preclinical research and development programmes to evaluate each of the Affimerdrug conjugates with the intention of generating clinical candidates.
The commercial agreement between the two parties provides ADC Therapeutics with options to obtain exclusive licenses to Avacta's Affimer® proteins for clinical development and commercialisation on a target by target basis.
Although no specific financial terms have been disclosed at this stage, ADC Therapeutics has agreed to cover all of Avacta's costs over the duration of the collaborative agreement. Upon ADC Therapeutics entering into each of the commercialisation licenses and bringing new Affimer-drug conjugates to market successfully, Avacta will receive option fees and development and commercialisation milestones in addition to single-digit royalties on sales.
We believe that this represents further progress for Avacta as the group is in a strong position to demonstrate the effectiveness of Affimer® technology in a range of oncology treatments and de-risk the Affimer ® platform further. With Avacta's costs covered by ADC Therapeutics over the course of the collaboration and the potential for Avacta to generate diverse and recurring revenue streams in the event the ADC Therapeutics brings an Affimer-drug conjugate to market, we believe that agreements such as this serve as a highly attractive blueprint for the commercial advancement of the company.

Holidays with the X Factor: Where to spot celebrities in LA, Nice and Ibiza
As the remaining X Factor contestants leave Britain behind in favour of more exotic locations for Judges' Houses, our experts suggest some luxurious and celebrity-packed venues they might want to visit.
Los Angeles
Sharon Osbourne's charges will be visiting her in LA, while Simon Cowell's base is just up the coast in Malibu.
"LA is one of the world's most creative cities," says Lucie Young, our expert. "Its museums and burgeoning gallery scene have an experimental edge that is often missing in other cultural capitals. It boasts many of the country's most exciting chefs and has a lively fashion and design community that creates innovative architecture, clothing and graphics."
Hotels for celebrity spotting
You're spoiled for choice.
The Beverly Hills Hotel has a history laced with star-spangled romance: Elizabeth Taylor honeymooned here with six of her seven husbands; Faye Dunaway learnt how to swim in the pool; and a Yoko Ono and John Lennon 'bed-in' was staged in one of the bungalows.
The London West Hollywood at Beverly Hills is LA's best-known playground for rock 'n' roll stars and wild-child celebrity VIPs.
Chateau Marmont, modelled on the Loire Valley's Chateau d'Amboise, is a go-to hotel for Hollywood actors.
Shutters on the Beach in Santa Monica is also known to lure the rich and famous.
The Redbury @ Hollywood and Vine, right next to the iconic Capitol records building, and The Hollywood Roosevelt, found where the Hollywood Walk of Fame begins, should also appeal to the X Factor contestants.
The restaurant to be seen in
Urasawa on N Rodeo Drive. "It's breathtakingly expensive, but an unmissable once-in-a-lifetime gourmet experience," says Lucie Young. "Chef Hiroyuki Urasawa is LA's top sushi chef and is famed for his 25-30 course tasting menu (that varies every evening). Each plate is a mouthwatering taste explosion like foie gras shabu shabu and a mini work of art in the Kaiseki-style."
Where to party
The Edison, "situated in a converted power plant in fashionable downtown, is one of LA's hottest lounge bars," says Lucie Young. "The décor is glam industrial. Dress like a diva and swan in."
Or else try Avalon: "This huge Hollywood nightclub opened in 1927, hosted the Beatles in the 60s and is now back in vogue with its acid house/trance dance parties. Control on Friday is the big electronica event. The upstairs Bardot lounge has live music most nights."
Nicole Scherzinger's boys will be heading to Nice, jewel of the French Riviera.
"The capital of the Côte d'Azur is beautifully curved round the Bay of Angels, desirable and as lively as you like," says Anthony Peregrine, our expert. "Its reputation for glamour is enhanced by an equal reputation for top-end scandal. The clearest-possible light spangles the Mediterranean to create a setting for sybarites, and shadows for well-dressed decadence. The inauguration, in 2013, of the Promenade du Paillon – 30 acres of park running from the city centre to the sea – indicates that it has the imagination and drive to fulfill its ambitions. This is a glorious, and playful, slice of urban greensward. And it's bewitching at pretty much any time of year."
Hotels for celebrity spotting
Chances are they'll all be staying on a superyacht up the coast in Monaco, but you can try your luck at one of the following:
Hotel Le Negresco, which boasts Michelin-starred dining, sea views and a wealth of antique furniture. It's a popular choice among European royalty and holidaying celebrities, while everyone from Khrushchev to Richard Burton has enjoyed a drink in its Le Relais bar.
Boscolo Exedra, a dazzling white palace on one of the most bourgeois boulevards in Nice.
Or Hotel La Perouse, with its startling sea views, top-class beds and good restaurant, where guests eat Mediterranean fare under lemon trees. "The hotel's terrace has the feel of a Provençal village square," says Anthony Peregrine.
The restaurant to be seen in
Le Chantecler in The Hotel Negresco has two Michelin stars and "comes enrobed in what may be 18th-century France's entire production of fine wood panelling," says Anthony Peregrine. "Chandeliers hang above real period furniture – and yet there's nothing ponderous about Nice's best restaurant (except, of course, the price). Recent renovation has lightened everything up so that Denis Rieubland's cooking has the brightly cultivated setting it deserves."
Otherwise plump for La Terrasse, on the 10th floor of Le Méridien hotel: "This is truly haute cuisine, with arresting views to the sea and mountains. Also, it has to be said, with a slight sentiment of superiority over the folk you can barely see way down below on the Promenade des Anglais."
Where to party
Le Before, with chic chrome'n'wood décor and an even more chic clientele. "It's been under new ownership since 2015, but remains the sort of place where Niçois night-people go to prepare themselves for onward progress to the clubs (hence the name)," says Anthony Peregrine.
Louis Walsh's groups will be jetting off to Ibiza.
It's not all about staying up late, says Annie Bennett, our expert: "Although it is renowned for having some of the best nightclubs in the world, the island also has an absolutely beautiful coastline with dozens of tiny coves to discover, not to mention some of the most stylish hotels in the Mediterranean. Exploring in autumn and winter, you get much more of an idea of real life in Ibiza, particularly if you delve into the island's rich history too."
Hotels for celebrity spotting
The Ushuaia Ibiza Beach Hotel on Playa d'en Bossa is perfect for style-conscious partying and combines combines a trendy beach club vibe – featuring some of the world's best DJs – with chic rooms, a spa, a Euro-Japanese fusion restaurant, a steakhouse, and an oyster bar.
For a little more refined elegance, try The Gran Hotel Montesol, Ibiza's first hotel and an homage to the stylish days of decades past, or Cas Gasi, in a converted 19th-century farmhouse in Santa Gertrudis, an Ibizan artists' hub with lots of laidback cafés.
The restaurant to be seen in
For extortionate silliness, it has to be Sublimotion (price: €1,500 per person). Expect self-mixing cocktails, vivid 360-degree projections, and a pillow of nitrogenised olive oil, among other things.
For something affordable, go to Cala Bonita on Playa S'Estanyol – DJ Pete Tong and Nick Mason of Pink Floyd were tucking in at a adjacent table when The Telegraph's Olivia Walmsley visited earlier this year.
Where to party
Nikki Beach, for cabanas, cocktails, bronzed bodies and a bucketload of glamour; Amnesia, where two vast spaces are packed with 5,000 people dancing frenetically on summer nights; and Pacha, where you can guarantee the presence of countless celebrities from A to Z list in the never-ending series of rooms, are good places to start.

You may remember Solitaire as that game you tried once when you got your first computer and never played again. But let me tell you, this ain't your grandma's Solitaire!
Unless your grandma plays Faerie Solitaire. You may have a badass grandma, I don't know.
|DJ Wrinkles Soli-tearing it up at the clubs.
|This is called, "having fuck all".
|And this is called, "kickin' ass".
While playing, sometimes you'll find materials like stone and wood behind cards because¯\_(ツ)_/¯
You may also find eggs. When you hatch the eggs, you are given a pet. As far as I know, these pets do absolutely nothing for you. But you can feed them wood and stone and shit to make them different somehow. It's all a little...ah...pointless.
|Gotta Catch 'Em All! For-some-reason!
Each level consists of nine hands you must complete in order to rescue a Faerie trapped in a cage. Why this is, I have no idea. I skipped all of the story in this game. I can't have shit getting in the way of my combos. Each level also has a few objectives you must complete, or that bitch stays locked up.
|And that's how you can be perfect and still lose.

What's the one aspect of pain management you think is NOT talked about enough?
We asked you to share your thoughts, and we thank you for your many great responses on our Facebook page. Here's what some of you had to say:
"How difficult it is to get correct care in the ER, and how to avoid being labeled as a drug seeker or Munchausen." – Liz Knight Scribe
"Some general practitioners do not follow their state guidelines and deny proper care to their patients or even refuse to see patients with chronic pain. If they do not wish to prescribe opiate medication, then refer to pain management." – Marianne Marden
"Being over medicated" – Deanne Crash Angeloni
"I think in ALL of medicine, but definitely in pain management – bedside manner!" – Kerry Adams
"How those of us with chronic pain can help our caregivers cope. My husband feels helpless and frustrated with his inability to 'fix me.' I don't want him to experience what I do, but I don't want to constantly tell him how I'm feeling or have him ask." – Shelley Goodge
"In my experience, people don't like to talk about pain. I get it, but sometimes I need support." – Cindy Snyder
"That treating it very aggressively right off the bat allows for a better outcome. Boy, do I wish we had been told that." – Lisa Rogers Flaherty
"How there are millions of people in this country who have neuropathic pain conditions or CRPS/RSD and there are no effective medications or treatments!" – Merryl Werber Thompson
"I have found that psychological support can really lack for chronic pain patients. I am very lucky to have found a pain psychologist that is wonderful and really seems to get it!" – Jennifer DeDecker
"Post-stroke pain" – Tom Rucker
"I wish there was someone who could take a patient, in the earliest of stages of pain, and walk with us and help guide us through it all. Often times I have experienced doctors who don't have a lot of time to talk about the total picture." – Kerry Smith
We invite you to share your tips and stories with us. Our goal is help all of readers and followers in our shared pain community.

The 3DS adaptation of Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater has been confirmed to add many new features that weren't present in the original PS2 title. Snake Eater 3D introduces new touch-based menus, a photo-camouflage system and gyroscopic controls on top of the 3D visuals. Most recently, it's been confirmed that players will be able to opt for two additional camera views as seen in Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots: a first person and over-the-shoulder camera.
On top of the two new camera options and various other features, players will also be able to crouch and walk simultaneously, another feature seen in Guns of the Patriots and Peace Walker. In related news, Metal Gear Solid creator Hideo Kojima recently confirmed that the game is a remake and not a remastered port of the original. The game has been crafted from scratch and optimized for the 3DS hardware.
The final box art has also been revealed and can be seen in the image above. Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater 3D is out on March 8 in Japan and no later than early 2012 for the West.

Every book I pick up at the moment, in the light of my Odyssey reading, seems to be about a journey of one sort or another and I have been happily trundling along with two very different books, Swimming With Seals by Victoria Whitworth and In a Land of Plenty by Tim Pears.
Swimming With Seals because a few friends seem to be heading to Orkney. It has been a joy to share their journeys on Facebook, beautiful pictures of so many places I love.
Thank you to the friend who headed to Waulkmill Bay and sent me pictures of the place where we scattered some of the Tinker's ashes...
and to another who lit a candle for him in St Magnus Cathedral... emotional moments both as I sat here in Devon I can tell you. As for Victoria Whitworth's book...
"This is a memoir of intense physical and personal experience, exploring how swimming with seals, gulls and orcas in the cold waters off Orkney provided Victoria Whitworth with an escape from a series of life crises and helped her to deal with intolerable loss.
It is also a treasure chest of history and myth, local folklore and archaeological clues, giving us tantalising glimpses of Pictish and Viking men and women, those people lost to history, whose long-hidden secrets are sometimes yielded up by the land and sea."
The book has proved to be every bit an intensely personal read, based as some of it as around Evie Sands looking towards the deserted island of Eynhallow. The Tinker and I would sit there and wax lyrical about the monks on the island back in the day, as well as wondering how on earth they got there given that the tidal race, where North Sea bumps into the Atlantic Ocean, is so treacherous. That cover too has worked its magic, reminding me of Leila Thomson's wonderful tapestries at the Hoxa Gallery on Orkney...
I am smitten all over again and could fly on the paraffin budgie (as the Tinker called it) from Edinburgh to Kirkwall right this minute. Failing that drive to Thurso and hop on the Hamnavoe into Stromness.
Tim Pears is a new discovery for me, where on earth have I been to miss him, because having finished The Horseman, the first in his West Country trilogy (more soon), I went a-hunting through the back list only to find myself in a land of plenty. Literally in fact with In a Land of Plenty , 700 pages of sprawlingly wonderful Middle-England; one of those family sagas that has the power to engross and let the world fall away. Set in the aftermath of the Second World War, and billed as 'the story of our lives', it is all resonating with me having grown up through the same era.
This author quote from the British Council website says much and thus far the books have delivered..
"Our lives may be judged by how much, or how little, cruelty we inflict on others. If a reader comes to empathise with characters in my books, and then extends that understanding to real human beings, then that reader and I have achieved together more than either of us had a right to hope for. Also, putting together sentences, pen and paper my chisel and plane, is an endlessly hard and pleasing venture."
And just to note, I ordered my copy of In a Land of Plenty, and a couple more by Tim Pears, via Hive directly from his website. The books were post free, cheaper than You Know Where and a percentage is given to an independent book shop of my choice...to the lovely David and Anne at Bookends of Fowey, you are most welcome.
All thoughts on Swimming With Seals, in fact swimming with anything most welcome.
Are there any wild swimmers out there...I haven't quite managed it yet but who knows sumer is icumen in etc. and Victoria Whitworth does make it sound so exhilarating. There's a lot of SwimLit out there at the moment and its all very persuasive.
And of course your thoughts about Orkney and Tim Pears most welcome too.

Oaktree's Marks: Opportunity in Europe not what we thought it would be
COPYING AND DISTRIBUTING ARE PROHIBITED WITHOUT PERMISSION OF THE PUBLISHER: firstname.lastname@example.com
'We would be thrilled to make a return in the teens,' he tells Euromoney.
When Oaktree Capital Management closed its European Principal Fund III in March last year, it had raised 3.2 billion 20% more than its $2.5 billion target to invest in what it saw as the excellent opportunities in the region.
What it hadnt bargained for, however, was the impact that the ECBs two long-term refinancing operations (LTROs) would have on the distressed investing environment. As the central bank flooded the banking sector with 1 trillion cheap money, the worlds largest distressed investor saw its European strategy all but washed away. We all thought that we would get a deluge of selling by European banks that would overwhelm the available capital and force prices down, admits Oaktree's chairman Howard Marks, ruefully. Then the LTRO came along and the need for capital and liquidity was not what we thought it would be. Euromoney meets Marks at Oxford Universitys Saïd Business School, where he is due to lecture on Uncommon Sense for the Thoughtful Investor, which is also the title of his latest book. Famed for his lengthy client memos, Marks is keen to dispense his investment wisdom that has been accumulated over four decades in the business. Marks founded Oaktree Capital in 1995 with Bruce Karsh and three others from asset manager TCW Group. The firm had $77 billion assets under management at the end of last year and reported adjusted net income of $220.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2012 a rise of 187%. Full-year income was $717.3 million, up 34% on 2011. While the firm distributed a record $12.7 billion to investors during last year, Marks himself was ranked 922 in Forbes Magazines global list of billionaires, with a net worth $1.65 billion. Things are clearly going well, but developments in Europe seem to grate an investor with such a stellar reputation. Macro developments can play havoc with what we plan to do, he tells Euromoney. All we can do at any point is make decisions based on our best judgement regarding the future. One thing that is not available at the moment is the investment opportunity that we thought that we would get.
|Howard Marks
He insists: "We arent going to climb out the risk curve. We would like returns in the teens. In 2002, 15% to 18% didnt seem like a lot when treasuries paid 7%. I would be thrilled if we could make a return in the teens now. Banks might not be selling in the numbers that Oaktree expected, but when they do sell the firm is quick to seize the opportunity. In August, it closed the purchase of around 60 distressed regional UK properties from Lloyds Bank via the Project Harrogate portfolio sale. The discount on the £625 million face-value loans is thought to have been around 60%.
Oaktree is also understood to have bought $800 million of shipping loans from Lloyds in November at a substantial discount. It is pursuing further portfolio sales but will likely eschew the regions riskier geographies. When asked whether the firm is looking at opportunities in Germany and Spain, Marks merely comments that: Putting a lot of money into Spain could be a high risk/high return strategy. High risk, high return investing is something in which Oaktree has had much success in the US particularly in loan-to-own strategies. This entails the investor building up a sizeable position in the troubled companys senior debt to seize control in a debt-for-equity restructuring. The strategy might be win-win for the buyer, as even if it does not succeed in taking control of the company it can be paid out at par on debt that will have been bought at a substantial discount. While loan-to-own strategies have a long history in the US, their adoption in Europe is relatively untested. Oaktree has been involved in several recent situations that highlight the challenges that can be embedded therein. Oaktree was part of a lengthy dispute between junior lenders to German plastics manufacturer Klöckner Pentaplast and Blackstone, which had bought the firm in a secondary buyout in 2007. Oaktree held a principal position in the firms 800 million senior debt and had proposed a debt-for-equity deal to take control of the firm with Blackstone.
In June, however, junior lenders led by Strategic Value Partners succeeded in gaining control of the firm. The senior debt was, however, repaid at par. In 2010, having built up a 46% position in the firms senior debt, Oaktree abandoned its restructuring plans for German aluminium company Almatis to Dubai International Capital but was again paid out in full on its position. It is not easy to do loan-to-own in Europe as there are more moving parts, Marks explains. In the US we have done hundreds of restructurings where we were expecting a reliable outcome under the aegis of the court. But in Europe you cant assign the same probability to that process working. In Europe I would expect to achieve outcomes not through the court but through a consensual restructuring."
He warns: "In such situations you may get less than you deserve and others get more than they deserve. But if you bought right you can come out well. Marks concedes that improving conditions in the European loan and capital markets will make a loan-to-own strategy in the region additionally unpredictable. If a company whose debt we own is in trouble but has other capital avenues available then our leverage with them is reduced. The more alternatives the debtor has the less well the creditor will do, he agrees pointing out that the strategy can be regarded more favourably as conditions improve.
In bad times, money from others can be called throwing good money after bad. In good times it is called rescue finance, he says, smiling. Oaktree raised $380 million in an IPO last April, which like that of Blackstone, Fortress, KKR and Carlyle suffered from market volatility. It had intended to sell 11.3 million shares at between $43 and $46 each but eventually priced 8.84 million shares at $43 in what Marks has described as a humbling experience. Indeed, he readily admits to finding these markets very tricky to predict. Speaking to an audience of industry professionals and students later that afternoon, he states: The world seems more uncertain today than at any time in my experience and I have been in this business 45 years. Despite it being an unusually sunny, spring-like day for Oxford in March, in the crowded lecture theatre students are crouching along the stairs to hear Marks talk. Is the world really less certain or do we just feel less certain? he muses. I dont think that anybody really knew what they thought that they knew seven years ago, so which is worse? A recurring theme of his lecture is the resurrection of pro-risk behaviour in the face of persistently low interest rates. There is no money to be made safely any more," he says. "You have to go out the curve and make risky investments. Low yields are forcing even wary investors into pro-risk behaviour. Risk aversion keeps the market honest.
"We have a world in which nobody is thinking bullish. Everybody is worried and there is an absence of bullish thinking but the presence of bullish behaviour. We see pre-crisis practices coming back into the market: it is easy to issue triple-C debt and it is easy to issue debt to pay dividends to shareholders. He describes his investment philosophy as 80% to 90% offence versus defence: the pursuit of high returns versus the avoidance of loss. The answer is somewhere in the middle but biased towards the avoidance of loss, he says. Money and nerve are all that you have needed over the last four years it didnt really matter what you bought. All the asset manager selection in the world didnt really make a difference.
However, he now strikes a decided note of caution: I see unsound practices creeping back into the credit markets. People are making investments not because they want to but because they have to they are handcuffed volunteers. You need to keep your goal on buying value for less than it is worth.
Marks is fond of reminding his audience that this isnt supposed to be easy. But as someone who last year bought the most expensive co-op ever sold in New York City at 740 Park Avenue for $52.5 million and recently sold his California house to a Russian oligarch for a rumoured $75 million, he can make it look rather that way.
Conditions in the world are not so bad and prices are not so high that it is unreasonable to move forward, he tells Euromoney. But conditions are not so good and prices are not so low that it is time to be aggressive. Some risk-tolerant practices have come back into the market so it is important to exercise caution.

Despite the University's effort to increase pedestrian safety on campus over the past year, the April 9 hit-and-run accident that injured Amanda Chew '14 and Juliana Unanue Banuchi '14 has renewed concern across campus. A vehicle, allegedly driven by 30-year-old Jessica Paden of Providence, struck the students when it veered onto the sidewalk at the intersection of Hope and Charlesfield streets.
According to the Providence Police Department's report, Paden committed a slew of offenses related to the incident, including driving while intoxicated involving bodily injury, refusal to submit to a preliminary breath test, not carrying a license and failure to stop after an accident resulting in personal injury or death. Paden pleaded not guilty April 11 and was released on $10,000 personal recognizance. Department of Public Safety Sergeant John Heston said it could be up to six months before Paden's case goes to trial.
The officer who pulled Paden over was conducting a DWI checkpoint on Brook Street south of the accident's site, Heston said. The area sees more than its fair share of intoxicated drivers, he added.
According to the PPD report, Paden was pulled over after speeding down Brook Street and failing to stop at the Power Street intersection. When PPD Patrolman Noel Field noticed the smell of alcohol, he asked for Paden's license, which she was unable to provide because she claimed it was stolen. Field then received word of the hit-and-run incident.
Witnesses at the scene of the accident identified the vehicle as an Audi, a description that matched Paden's vehicle. Further examination of the crime scene produced a fragment of the vehicle that aligned with a piece from the suspect's car.
Field asked Paden to submit to a standardized field sobriety test, to which she complied. But upon failure to finish the test, the report states Paden refused to submit to a breath test.
In February 2010, Avi Schaefer '13 was struck and killed by a vehicle while walking at the corner of Hope and Thayer streets, prompting the University to create a committee that would provide recommendations to increase pedestrian safety on campus.
In response to concerns over student safety in the wake of this month's hit-and-run, Margaret Klawunn, vice president for campus life and student services, wrote in an email to The Herald that the University has implemented a number of the committee's recommendations, including the creation of highly visible crosswalks at 40 campus intersections. "Our (Division of Campus Life and Student Services), in collaboration with the Department of Public Safety, has undertaken a broad array of education and awareness efforts, including urging students to be aware that drivers may not always be paying attention or may be impaired," she wrote.
Despite these efforts, some students still expressed concern over pedestrian safety on campus. But Brown has an open campus, and University Hall has limited control over events on adjacent streets.
Gladys Ndagire '13 said paying attention is not always enough. "I always take so much precaution" said Ndagire. Still, Ndagire was struck by a car just last week as she stepped from the street to the sidewalk, she said. "People in Providence drive way too fast," she said. She said she sustained no injuries from the incident.
Phoebe Min '13 said she does not feel as much of a need for precaution, adding she will sometimes cross without looking "because drivers know to be careful around a college campus."
"I've noticed drivers on the phone and texting" said Audrey Chang '13. Though she has jaywalked before, she said the habits of drivers near campus are also responsible for her close encounters with vehicles.
Encounters like these have made Ismail Khan '14 more careful around campus, he said. "At night, I usually wait for signals," Khan said, adding that he is more cautious because of the recent accidents and because he said he feels that "downtown Providence cars are crazy."
But Alex Stuth '14 said students do not always have the option to wait to cross the street legally. "It's hard to wait for signals when going between classes," Stuth said. He said he has also come close to getting hit and has noticed times at night where drivers do not have lights on. But he acknowledged that not all driving around campus is dangerous. "I've had some people who have let me cross the street," he said, "but also some jerks who have almost hit me."

They told me that it's just a phase I nodded, even when I know it's not They said, put a smile on that face I did, there's nothing to smile about
Sadness is not the end, they'd say There is so much more to life But I just cant find the will to hype When there's no one that would stay
They told me a lot of things, I listened That was all I ever did. To listen. That's all in your head, they'd tell Perhaps. Because I think I am in hell
They said that they were there for me I look at my cold bed with warm tears Hoping they could lend me their ears At the end there's no one but me
They said that they were there for me Perhaps they were. I just cant see Or I was blinded by my tears That'd never ceased all those years
Because they said that it's just a phase No need to leave this beautiful place But phases do come to a halt right? Then maybe one day this might.

Mike Barrow and his friends are among many boys in Manchester who think the city will be their chance to improve themselves. But for now Mike is living in a damp flat with his friend Callum, and they're both making ends meet by working the streets. When Mike meets Chris Wildsmith, a late-twenties entrepreneur, he thinks he's hooked a job that will pay his rent for several weeks—a windfall already.
But his connection with Chris quickly goes beyond what's normal between rent boy and client. Mike meets Chris's friends, goes to Chris's parties with him as his "boyfriend," and finds himself swept up in a world he's never known. He's sure it's all going to go horribly wrong, and when Chris's work colleague figures them out and becomes violent, he's almost proven right. But Mike isn't the only one who has confused professionalism with something else. The breakup that follows gives Mike the impetus he needs to relaunch himself as somebody else, a man who will hopefully be someone Chris very much wants to be with.

More than 4.2 million Americans have signed up for insurance on healthcare marketplaces created by the new health law, white house officials announced Tuesday.
Over 940,000 people enrolled in coverage in February alone and with less than a month remaining in the enrollment period, officials expect the rate of sign-ups to increase between now and the March 31 deadline for coverage this year.
California continues to sign up the greatest number of American's in the first five months of enrollment, with nearly 869,000 people registered for a health plan through the state's health marketplace. Florida, which is among 36 states relying on the federal government to run their exchanges, was second with over 442,000 enrollments. Texas, New York, North Carolina and Michigan were the next largest.
"Now, during this final month of open enrollment, our message to the American people is this," Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said. "You still have time to get covered, but you'll want to sign up today."
The state-based marketplaces enable Americans who do not get coverage at work to select among plans that offer at least a basic set of benefits. The plans cannot turn away sick people. Consumers who make less than four times the federal poverty level, or about $94,000 for a family of four, qualify for government subsidies to offset the cost of their premiums.
It remains unclear how many of the people signing up for coverage were previously uninsured, however a new survey indicates that the share of Americans without insurance dropped in the first two months of 2014 to 15.9%, down from 17.1% in the last three months of 2013, according to a survey of 28,000 Americans by Gallup. The increase in coverage was greatest among families with incomes below $36,000 a year.
More than 4 in 5 of the people signing up for coverage are qualifying for subsidies, according to the new Obama administration enrollment report.
Open enrollment ends March 31, 2014 and those who do not sign up before then will have to pay a tax penalty at the end of the year.

SPOT THE SAFETY VIOLATION: Storage Rack Collapse Buries Worker
These storage racks collapsed and buried a worker underneath hundreds of pounds of cheese and metal shelving. How could this incident have been prevented?
Workplaces such as warehouses, distribution centres and manufacturing plants regularly use racks to store materials, goods, etc. Storage racks help keep the workplace clean and organized, and allow for the safe movement of workers and mobile equipment. But if racks aren't installed and used correctly or are improperly maintained, they can endanger workers.
This picture shows the aftermath of the collapse of 18 metre tall metal storage racks in a warehouse in England. The racks held 20kg blocks of cheese. It's unclear exactly why the shelving collapsed, but being overloaded may have contributed to the incident, which is under investigation by OHS officials.
When the storage racks collapsed like dominoes, workers ran for safety but a worker on a forklift was unable to escape. He was buried in the rubble for more than eight hours before rescuers were able to pull him out. They believe that the protective cab of his forklift saved his life. The worker suffered only minor injuries in the incident.
Each jurisdictions' OHS regulations cover the safe storage of materials, including the safe use of storage racks. You should always comply with the specific requirements for racks in your jurisdiction. But following these basic rack safety tips from Safe Work Manitoba's Guideline for Industrial Steel Storage Racks will help ensure compliance and will protect workers:
- When buying storage racks, ensure durability and protection features are built into the design.
- Ensure the structural integrity of the walls and floors before installing your storage rack.
- Install storage racks according to the manufacturer's specifications. If racks are improperly installed, they can endanger workers.
- Ensure the aisles around the storage rack are wide enough to accommodate a lift truck's turning radius and for the safe operation of powered mobile equipment such as forklifts in general.
- Conduct regular inspections, maintenance and repairs of storage racks. (Use this checklist to inspect the storage racks in your workplace to ensure that they're safe.)
- Look for scratched paint, dents and bowed out components.
- Ensure you use your storage rack according to the manufacturer's specifications.
- Train workers to load storage racks properly. For example, bar workers from overloading racks beyond their safe load limits.
- Conduct rack safety training for all workers and encourage them to report bangs, dents and any damage to storage racks as soon as is practical—and discipline them appropriately when they don't.
Example: A forklift operator drove into and seriously damaged a storage rack. He didn't report the incident, which was discovered on the next shift, and he falsified documents to cover it up. So the employer fired him. And an arbitrator upheld his termination as justified [Winners Merchants Intl LP v. Workers United Canada Council, Local 152, [2013] CanLII 74235 (ON LA), Nov. 25, 2013].
10. Retrain lift truck and power mobile equipment drivers as required to ensure they can safely operate such equipment around storage racks.

Ask nine-year-old Jess for her thoughts about Noah's Ark and, speaking through her computer, they couldn't be clearer: "Feel love, feel love, feel love, feel love."
For many families a visit to the panto is a winter highlight but, if your child has complex needs, theatre trips, parties or ice skating can just feel too difficult. Noah's Ark Family Activities are all about making these treats possible - and they mean the world to the families taking part.
"We've got such lovely memories from the days you've put on," says Jess' mum, Liz. "We would always prioritise them in our diaries because we know we will have a lovely day.
"It's so hard to find things that are accessible for children's like Jess. You can book standard days at theme parks, but there are so many things that Jess can't do - because it's not wheelchair-friendly or it's just not geared up for her."
Jess, who has been supported by Noah's Ark for the past five years, has Rett syndrome - a rare genetic disorder which results in severe disability; in Jess' case this means very limited movement.
While Jess has periods of being relatively healthy, at other times her frequent epileptic seizures and chest infections make family life a cycle of emergency calls and hospital admissions. Even when she's well, Jess requires 24-hour care, which places huge demands on her family.
Jess is non-verbal and communicates by Eyegaze technology. Bright, funny and quick to learn, her ability to use the technology has come on in leaps and bounds allowing her to really make herself heard.
Says Liz, "She's hilarious; so much fun to be around - her communication with her Eyegaze is just amazing. It means we know what she likes... and what she doesn't like. If you ask too many questions about how her day went she'll tell you to 'just stop' - like any school-aged child really!"
Jess has a six-year-old sister, Anna who copes brilliantly with her sister's condition, although Liz is aware of the stress that's often places upon her. "Even if you're with Anna, you're still half listening out for Jess or thinking 'does she need anything?' So it's very hard on Anna."
To help Anna, a Noah's Ark volunteer visits fortnightly. "So many people come to the house for Jess; the carers, the physios, the nurses. Having someone come for Anna makes her feel special and important."
Anna has started taking part in Noah's Ark sibling activities too. "She went to Legoland and had such a good time. Noah's Ark is the only place that offers anything for siblings and that is so important.
"As a family we just find Noah's Ark totally invaluable. I don't think we would have coped over the years, especially when Jess was so sick."
And, according to Anna, "Without Noah's Ark, Jess wouldn't have Specialist Carers and I wouldn't have met so many lovely people. I love the days out and I never want Noah's Ark to stop. Noah's Ark is awesome!"
Together we built The Ark. Now help us bring it to life for children like Jess and Anna.

Empowering Moroccan girls to better their communities
Baramij Laha is an intensive training program designed to equip economically disadvantaged, female, Moroccan teenagers with the technical skills and leadership abilities necessary for them to tackle issues they are passionate about, be prepared for global career opportunities in the 21st century, and become leaders in their communities. Taught by female students from the United States, the program aims to bridge cultural divides between Moroccan and American youth through peer-to-peer learning.
codeHER ran its first pilot program for 14 girls in the U.S. Embassy's ACCESS program, which provides a foundation of English language skills to bright, economically disadvantaged students. With the support of our advisers, Elisabeth Myers and Fadwa Kamal, and the American Language School of Kenitra, the program took place from August 1-11, 2018 in Kenitra, Morocco.
Making a Change Competition
In groups, participants identify a problem their community faces and solve it by creating their own organizations. Participants learn how to create their own websites, apps, digital presentations, marketing videos, social media accounts, and project proposals for their organizations that they pitch in a structured session to global professionals.
Public Diplomacy Grant from State Department
codeHER received a Public Diplomacy Grant from the U.S. Department of State and the U.S. Embassy in Rabat for its girls tech and leadership program, Baramij Laha. After an intensive process, Saniya Vashist and her team, all high school and college students, were awarded this grant to help empower Moroccan girls.

Aw Yeah it's CH Punk's Three Brand Split Failures (WCW, 2002 Brand Split, nWo)
God damn Matt Hardy for his feud with "Brother Nero". Broken Matt Hardy is genius. WWE could never have made Hardy into this. He does not need one last WWE run. Vince would ruin like he ruined Bubba Ray.
Oh great we're getting another Brand Split, it's only failed three times. Wanna talk about it?
WCW/ NWO Failed Attempt:
Oh yeah this was attempted by Eric Bischoff in early 1997. The split would've been between the NWO and WCW. Throughout 1997, 10 million guys joined the NWO. In December, the NWO took over Nitro , calling it " NWO Nitro". This was supposedly the beginning of NWO running Nitro , while WCW would run WCW Saturday Night, or WCW Thunder. I never understood the idea of letting the NWO run an independent fed. Nobody, but NWO guys would win. It would've been Souled Out 1997 every Monday night. The NWO had their own refs, and the president of WCW, as their manager. How did Nitro keep our attention for 18 months? This was a reach to prove my point.
WCW Monday Night Raw:
In 2001 Vince McMahon thought he could run a WCW exclusive roster on Raw. Spike Tv hated the idea of having a failed wrestling federation being the focus of their top rated show. It turns out that Vince can't run two feds anyway. It's cool, Vince laid the blame on Buff Bagwell, who had a normal match with Booker T for the WCW World Title. The match was fines but Vince claims that's when he decided WCW was sub par. This would lead to the WCW Invasion angle, that proved Vince likes being vindictive more than he likes money. Before WWE bought WCW, they had planned a brand split after WrestleMania 17, between Vince and his Wife Linda. Then WCW died.
2002 Brand Split:
This was the first brand split that actually happen. It worked well until around 2005, when WWE decided to put all the top talent on Raw, for money reasons. I believe had to look great because WWE was negotiating a deal with various tv channels? SmackDown would cycle in one or two main eventer, that'd would go back to Raw, after about a year. While SmackDown was getting the b-show treatment, WWE adds a third brand, ECW. (Just writing about this is confusing me.) The biggest problems of the brand split were that WWE would constantly break-up tag teams, and the rosters were only exclusive for a year. Also WWE made it clear that Raw was the show to watch. Like most wrestling ideas this turned into a giant cluster fuck.
Finally, its worth pointing out that the USA Network was a strong influence on this new brand split. They were also the ones behind Raw going 3 hours.
If any of you try to blame USA for this, you will have to wear a shirt that says , "Commie Douche", go home meathead.

A collection of reviews of films from off the beaten path; a travel guide for those who love the cinematic world and want more than the mainstream releases.
Friday, October 3, 2014
Sauerbruch Hutton Architects (2013) New York Film Festival 2014
The film is a look at the title architecture firm over three month period in 2012 as they design their projects in all ther details- chairs, windows, door handles, arrangement in the landscape. The offices are a cold and clinical white and it looks more like a photographers studio or a hospital.
The reason I'm not really reviewing the film is I never connected with it. Yes it's interesting, for a while but there was a point about 15 minutes in when the minutiae of the discussions caused my eyes to glaze over. I turned off. I know documentaries should record things coldly and clinically this is almost too much. With controlled shots and beautifully arranged shots it almost seems like a fiction film. It's very much like a fiction film where the cold and sterile enviorment is a commentary on the world. It reminded me of Jacques tati's Mon Oncle or Playtime to the point I kept expecting Mr Hulot to wander in.
The film isn't bad, it's just not for most audiences, you have to like things like this otherwise it's sleep aide.
The film plays tomorrow at 1.

The Dictator calls Bush a "Fool"
The dictator rambles:
He is very much a fool," the Cuban president said of Bush. "He doesn't know who the Cuban baseball players are, or that they are Olympic and world champions. If he knew, he would know something about this country's government."
Who is the fool? The leader of free, democratically elected government, or the never been elected dictator who has enslaved the Cuban people for over 40 years? The dictator prides himself on having the elite "slave for labor" amatuer
baseball team. The World Baseball Classic is a professional endevor not an amatuer one. The dictator is the fool!!!

Are you Airtel broadband customer? Here's bad news for you
If you are an Airtel Xstream broadband customer, you are in for bad news. The broadband customers of Airtel will now be deprived of their unused data after the billing cycle ends. This means that the rollover data facility that Airtel launched as a part of #AirtelThanks initiative has been discontinued for broadband customers. However, the customers on a postpaid connection will remain eligible for data rollover as per their plan.
Several Airtel broadband customers took to Twitter to decry this move by Airtel that strips them off the privilege of carrying forward unused data to the next billing cycles. First reported by Gadgets 360, citing an Airtel customer representative, Airtel has removed the data rollover facility from all its broadband plans in all locations.
The Airtel website has removed the data rollover feature from under all Xstream plans starting at Rs 799. The benefits that continue to be available for broadband subscribers include other #AirtelThanks freebies on all plans and complimentary Amazon Prime, Netflix, and ZEE5 Premium subscriptions on select plans. But these benefits are still available for Airtel Infinity postpaid customers of Rs 499 plan or higher in all circles.
With the data rollover facility now done away with on Airtel, the ISPs providing data carry forward facility include BSNL, You Broadband, Tata Sky Broadband, and Spectra among others. Jio Fiber, on the other hand, does not provide its customers with data rollover plans as of now.

When you think of Japan, what is the first image that comes to mind? For many, it is the picture of a geisha holding an umbrella. For some it is their favorite manga or anime. For those lucky enough to have visited Japan during Spring, the iconic view of hundreds of sakura trees in full bloom is hard to beat. This is hanami ("flower viewing") season in Japan, and it is a highlight of the year for many people. While many might think that they can only see sakura in the country, Tokyo cherry blossom trees are just as beautiful! Don't worry about where to see cherry blossoms in Tokyo–we'll show you some of the best places around.
5 Perfect Tokyo Cherry Blossom Viewing Spots
Shinjuku Gyoen
The 144-acre garden hosts over a thousand cherry trees, and is a favorite destination for both locals and visitors who have caught the Tokyo cherry blossom fever. The wide open areas ensure everyone has their own space to hang out and talk. It is the perfect place for those who like to sit down and enjoy the view without worrying about overcrowding. In fact, despite the huge number of people who visit every year, the vast grounds ensure there is ample room for everyone.
The park opens at 9.00 am and closes at 4.00 pm but visitors cannot bring any alcoholic drinks onto the grounds. Due to the early closing time and lack of alcohol you will find the park far more relaxed than elsewhere, and it is well worth the 200 yen admission fee. If you're wondering where to see cherry blossoms in Tokyo while also escaping the bustle of the city, this is the place to be.
Ueno Park
With over a thousand trees on either side of the main route, Ueno Park is certainly not lacking in beauty – but with hundreds of parties taking place over the course of the cherry blossom season it is much more lively than Shinjuku Gyoen. The entire park is overtaken with people flocking to see the vivid colors and despite its large size, most people congregate around the main cherry tree areas and drinks flow freely, so the atmosphere is extremely festive. Although you might struggle to find your own spot among the trees, Ueno Park is a good choice if you want to experience the merrier side of hanami. The contrast between Ueno Park and Shinjuku Gyoen really shows that alcohol vs. non-alcohol is a big consideration when deciding where to see cherry blossoms in Tokyo.
The Imperial Palace is a popular destination all year round, but no more so than in Spring. At this time the moat around the palace is transformed, becoming a unique spot for viewing Tokyo cherry blossoms that is simply like nowhere else like it in Japan. This well known destination can also be viewed from a small boat, bypassing the crowds and giving you a sakura vantage point like no other.
You can even stay after dark, with illuminations keeping the trees looking their best well into the night. Despite the crowds this is one of the best places to see cherry blossoms in Tokyo because of the spectacular backdrop, and is a great place to get a feel for what the event means to everyone here.
Meguro River
Despite being the definition of an urban jungle, Tokyo still holds tradition dear. Meguro river is proof of that, with a section from JR Meguro station to Nakameguro being transformed into a cherry blossom walk every Spring. The route is incredibly popular, and hosts a large number of shops and stalls selling all kinds of food and drink.
If you are tired of all the walking you can stop at any number of restaurants for a rest under the trees, overlooking the man-made canal. It is particularly special at night when lanterns are strung up and provide illumination along the entire street. This unique combination of traditional and modern Japan means that people flock here from all over Tokyo, so space will be limited, especially at night. Expect to keep walking along the route, or stop to take pictures with the lanterns, but not to sit down on the street with your sake and snacks. This is doubly true during the Nakameguro Sakura festival, an event that attracts tens of thousands of people and makes the area very crowded. So many things to do and see makes this among the best places to see cherry blossoms in Tokyo.
Inokashira Park
This spacious park, first opened to the public in 1917, hosts hundreds of sakura trees around a central lake. For those looking to spend a more relaxing time watching the gently falling petals, or simply wanting to get a bit closer to nature, the wide-open spaces make for ideal Tokyo cherry blossom viewing. This park also features a vibrant performance scene, with local artists providing a fun attraction for visitors. Everything from mimes to musicians have performed here, so there will be something for everyone to enjoy.
The central pond also gives visitors a chance to rent out a swan boat and look at the sights from the tranquility of the water. Even during peak times this spacious park ensures you will not be jostling for a prime position, but the boats are a great way to forego the seated crowds entirely. They are always in high demand during hanami season, so be prepared to queue for your chance at riding one.
Tokyo Cherry Blossom Viewing is Better with Sakura Mobile
The question of where to see cherry blossoms in Tokyo is really up to you. Whether you want to sit down and savor your hanami experience, or try out the more hectic side of Japanese history and culture, the Tokyo cherry blossom spots highlighted above are sure to have something you will enjoy doing. Do not forget to share your pictures and experiences with the world with a Sakura Mobile WiFi router, compatible with a huge number of phones and tablets or a SIM Card for those who want to keep their own phone during their trip. You can pick up both SIM and WiFi routers from our Shinjuku office on the way to your hanami viewing party.
Visiting Japan during cherry blossom season is a great way to see something beautiful and experience a unique aspect of the culture, so be sure to take full advantage of the opportunity with Sakura Mobile.

"Veganuary" Searches Grew 25% YoY in January
The new year has started positively. Online retail visits grew +1.8% YoY; a turnaround from the -0.6% YoY decline in December. This was seen among Department Stores (from -0.2% in December to +2.1% in January) and Health & Beauty (from -1.7% to +4.3%) categories reversing their end of year results.
Two other industries traditionally aligned to the Christmas peak also had further acceleration in January, including: Clothing, Fitness & Footwear (from +0.7% to +3.9%) and Food & Drink (+4.8% to 8.3%).
These rises were very much aligned to the growing health and ethically-conscious consumer; particularly as this trend becomes more widespread in the UK. Searches for "veganuary" had grown 25% YoY, with the Food & Drink industry seeing a number of new terms, like: "vegan hotdogs", "vegan nuggets" and "vegan blue cheese". Searches for "dry January" also rose 24% YoY. Nights out were swapped for nights in, with branded searches for subscription box services, like "Hello Fresh", "Gusto" and "Simply Cook", among the top-rising terms.
Overall, January has started on a positive note with a number of categories returning to, or accelerating, growth. The rise of ethical and sustainable food and fashion is only one reason why retailers need to stay close to the consumer. Brands need to understand what customers are caring about heading into 2019, and how they can best respond to these needs.
