Each week of Gotham brings new disappointment. I want to like this show. I recommend it to people who ask my opinion. I try to get excited when Monday night rolls around and I always pray that the new episode will be the one to capture my love and adoration. After watching “Arkham,” I fear I hope in vain. The episode is a mess for various reasons, not the least of which are its structure and pacing issues.
This show has become too exhausting to watch. The “villain of the week” structure was intriguing at first but has veered toward tiresome. It seems showrunner Bruno Heller cannot find a balance between exploring the complexities of the huge ensemble cast and solving the crime of the episode. The pacing is inconsistent at best and confusing at worst. Heller attempts to squeeze too much into an hour-long procedural.
That is why more and more each week, I either hear or read about people who say they care more about Mooney and Penguin than they do that week’s guest villain. In “Arkham,” Heller attempts to meld these ideas together.
The fate of Arkham Asylum is at stake as everyone in Gotham wonders who will get to build on the old estate. Before the Waynes died, they wanted to develop low-income housing, as well as revamp Arkham into a state-of-the-art facility for Gotham’s needy. Carmine Falcone (John Doman) is behind the Waynes’ plan 100% because he stands to gain a substantial amount of money from the deal. Feuding mob boss Sal Maroni (David Zayas) has his own ideas as he seeks to set up a waste disposal site on the Arkham grounds. These warring bids turn deadly, resulting in a case for Gordon (Ben McKenzie) and Bullock (Donal Logue).
While the feud between Maroni and Falcone made sense narratively speaking, the plot felt uninspired. Two crime bosses fighting over territory is a tired story. Fortunately, this plot exists merely as a backdrop for Oswald Cobblepot’s shockingly quick rise through Maroni’s ranks.
Robin Lord Taylor is always a pleasure to watch onscreen. The command he has over his scenes is mesmerizing. It is a surprise Taylor didn’t burst onto the scene sooner.
Fish Mooney (Jada Pinkett-Smith) and Edward Nygma (Cory Michael Smith), on the other hand, are no longer so enjoyable to watch. Nygma comes across as incredibly obnoxious as he overacts in every scene. He does everything short of screaming “Look at me, I’m the Riddler!”- destroying all pretense of nuanced character development along the way. Perhaps Smith and Taylor should hang out after shoots in hopes Smith can pick up a few tips on subtlety.
Pinkett-Smith also flounders as she overemphasizes Mooney’s accent. Every time she opens her mouth, I roll my eyes. Her pronunciation of some words is ridiculous enough to ruin the flow of her scenes. In “Arkham,” she auditions young girls she might groom to eventually take down Falcone. These sequences are cringe-worthy. Mooney’s absurd request for the girls to try to seduce her is awkward, unnecessary and felt a bit like the show is pandering to its male audience.
Maroni’s actions throughout the episode take him from stereotypical Italian mob boss to gross caricature. There is one point when he grabs and eats a steak with his bare hands. These absurd moments take away the reality the show seemed to be establishing.
I was also unhappy with the “compromise” Mayor James (Richard Kind) landed on for Arkham in the final moments of the episode. His decision seemed like a stretch, even for a character as corrupt as he is. His choice is not only detrimental to the people he ostensibly protects, but it is also well beyond what any responsible mayor would agree to. His greed will only spell disaster for Gotham and its citizens.
While it was nice to see multiple storylines coming together this week, it would be nice if there were a larger focus on the key players in Gotham. The show could use an episode or two that focus on a single crime committed by either Oswald or Mooney. I think I speak for many audience members when I say we’re all more interested in learning what Oswald is about than we are political drama. An Oswald-centric episode, with flashbacks to his childhood, would be a refreshing change to the show’s predictable formula.
I had so much hope for Gotham. Although it’s been picked up for a full 22-episode season, I would be surprised if Fox renewed a series this inconsistent for next year. With “Arkham,” it still feels as if the show is still building up to something. So the question is, where is it all headed? Are the “rivers of blood in the streets” Oswald keeps raving about the endgame?
It’s hard to say. Maybe next week’s “Viper” will paint a clearer picture.

George Bailey has captained Kings XI Punjab previously in the IPL © BCCI
Australia batsman George Bailey has been called in by Rising Pune Supergiants as the replacement for Faf du Plessis, who was ruled out of the IPL with a finger injury.
Supergiants will be Bailey's third IPL franchise: he has already represented Chennai Super Kings and Kings XI Punjab, where he was the captain in 2015 before the franchise decided to release him. At the auction in February, Bailey, who had listed his base price as Rs 1 crore (USD 148,000 approx), did not find any buyers despite his name coming up twice.
Supergiants, one of the two new teams introduced this season, have endured a string of losses and are currently sixth on the points table with just two wins in eight games. Injuries have added to their woe, with four of their first-pick overseas players being ruled out over the past week. Before du Plessis, former England batsman Kevin Pietersen tore his calf while batting in the home match against Kolkata Knight Riders. Australian allrounder Mitchell Marsh managed to play just three matches before eventually returning to Australia earlier this week due to a side strain. Possibly the biggest blow came on Monday morning when Cricket Australia's medical team announced that Australia captain Steven Smith, who had scored his maiden T20 century on April 29, had picked a wrist injury and needed to return home.
"Smith's [news] been a bummer. He was just coming into his own and this happened," Raghu Iyer, chief executive at Supergiants, said. "It is a challenging time. Before we could settle down we lost the core group of players around whom you build a team around."
According to Iyer, given Bailey's leadership experience, he can cover for the loss of Smith and Pietersen. "We lost four crucial players, but we are looking ahead. Bailey has tremendous experience and had a very successful season before last. He can contribute to the leadership group," Iyer said. In 34 IPL games, Bailey has 579 runs at 25.17, with a strike rate 129.82.
Iyer said the franchise is likely to announce Marsh's replacement in the next two days. They have already signed Australia batsman Usman Khawaja as Pietersen's replacement.

What you see before you, dear reader, is a pair of original “Super Gokusen” denim hot pants from Japan-based online underwear retailer Shirohato. While we’re sure few of you, internet savvy and worldly-wise as you are, would ever be shocked to see a young lady wearing a pair of these tiny pants while, say, soaping up a sports car in one of your Dad’s old Playboys, or standing alongside a product in a cheesy ad on TV, we very much doubt that many would have dreamed that these undies are, in fact, meant to be worn by men.
Take a big, deep breath and click the link for more.
We’re all for equality here at RocketNews24, and admire any man who isn’t ashamed to put it all on show in the right setting, but this – this – is just terrifying.
Upon discovering these photos online, we immediately sent them off for analysis at our labs. Using the very best scientific equipment that money can buy, our research team can confidently say that there is approximately 2.6 cubic centimetres of space inside these pants for a gentleman’s junk, and that’s with the zip open.
Unsurprisingly, no sooner had the first netizen spotted the tiny T-back online than the photos began popping up just about everywhere. Japan’s Twitter community, too, was both shocked and fascinated by the hot pants, and has been tweeting about them for much of the week so far, with one user even claiming to have seen a patient at the hospital they work at sporting a pair.
▼ “Some guy came into the hospital where I work wearing a pair of these!”
It’s not clear whether said patient visited the hospital with injuries caused by the underwear or whether they just happened to be wearing them when they were brought in, but judging from the size of these things we’re inclined to believe that they were there seeking assistance with their removal.
The “super extreme short” denim hot pants are available to buy now from Shirohato, priced 3,045 yen (US$31), and come in either classic blue or clean white denim. May God have mercy on our souls.

ZURICH (Reuters) - Switzerland said it is ready to end a long-running dispute with U.S. prosecutors over Swiss banks that have sheltered tax evaders, without disclosing any terms of the deal.

The two governments have been at loggerheads over a tax evasion crackdown which has ensnared around a dozen Swiss banks, is threatening a raft of others, and earlier this year felled Wegelin, Switzerland’s oldest bank, following an indictment.
The Swiss government said on Wednesday the signing of the joint statement with the U.S. should enable Swiss banks to resolve the dispute with the United States while complying with existing Swiss laws. It gave no further details, and the finance ministry was absent at a weekly government press conference.
A Swiss newspaper reported the host of banks not yet under formal investigation in the U.S. could face fines of as much as 50 percent of their American client assets. [ID:nL6N0GT0T3] Government spokesman Andre Simonazzi said the terms and conditions of the program would not be immediately released, but would be communicated “as soon as possible”.
While Switzerland’s banking lobby and a banking employees association welcomed the move, a spokeswoman for the U.S. justice department didn’t immediately comment on the Swiss statement.
The agreement deals mainly with a settlement for the roughly 100 Swiss banks that had U.S. clients, but are not yet being investigated by U.S. justice authorities.
“The SBA welcomes the positive outcome of the Federal Council’s decision, as this means that the final step towards a solution has been taken and the U.S. can now launch the program,” the SBA said in a statement.
Around a dozen banks are under U.S. investigation, including Credit Suisse CSGN.VX, Julius Baer BAER.VX, the Swiss arm of Britain’s HSBC (HSBA.L), privately held Pictet and state-backed regional banks Zuercher Kantonalbank and Basler Kantonalbank (BSKP.S).
Several of those banks have said they are preparing information of client withdrawals demanded by U.S. investigators, after the Swiss government said it would allow them to circumvent secrecy and privacy laws to do so.
Last week, a Swiss government source told Reuters the U.S. government had ratcheted up the pressure on Switzerland to strike a deal after the Swiss parliament rejected an accord in June, tightening its negotiating terms after the rebuff. | positive |
As far as careers in Finance go, Investment Banking Analyst job is one of the most rewarding choices.
Apart from the fact that it’s a sure and easy way to a very successful career, it involves being creative about finding the right financial solutions and providing high-quality advice on mergers, acquisitions, and high-risk transactions.
If you’re thinking about going down this road, you couldn’t have made a better and more difficult choice.
Here is a short guide to everything you need to know about this position, including job descriptions at every level, salaries, and requirements for application.
What is Investment Banking?
An Investment Bank or an IB, how you will find it referenced to in most field related research material, is a financial intermediary.
This means that it’s employed to prepare and secure a variety of complex financial transactions between two or more parties.
Some of them focus on particular sectors of business, but most offer a complete palette of services. They can also operate for very small or even individual customers, should the need arise.
Some of the world’s most famous and successful Investment Banks are:
Goldman Sachs
Barclays
Merrill Lynch
Morgan Stanley
Deutsche Bank
Credit Suisse
Citibank
JP Morgan
What Does an Investment Bank do?
Here are some of the major functions an IB holds, broken down for more details. As an aspiring Investment Banker, bear in mind that these are general functions, and they will not be necessarily shared by all IBs.
Raising capital and handling underwriting security – As previously stated, an IB will always act as an intermediary between a certain company that is issuing securities and other parties interested in buying them. The IB will help assess the value of the securities so that they can be sold as profitably as possible. Also, the bank will perform some risk management for the business, so that they can price, underwrite and sell the issuing securities.

Mergers and acquisitions – An IB can give advice to its clients about the transactions they make, including negotiating, pricing and structuring. They can also help them build a process as far as mergers and acquisitions are concerned and then implement it.

Sales, trading, and equities –This category of actions refers to the fact that Investment Banks create a link between buyers and sellers. They also buy and sell securities all on their own. In this way, they facilitate security trading.

Retail and commercial banking – The Glass-Steagall repeal happened in 1999 and, after that, investment banks were prompted to offer more traditional services, such as off-line commercial banking.

Front and back office – Investment Banks offer both front office and back office services. The former include M&A advice and the latter include risk management, corporate treasury, strategy, compliance, controlling the finances, technology and operations. These are all critical functions and services.

The former include M&A advice and the latter include risk management, corporate treasury, strategy, compliance, controlling the finances, technology and operations. These are all critical functions and services. History of the business – This might sound redundant, but it’s actually a very important service. Since the Panic of 1907, when J P Morgan had to personally step in and bail the United States out, many Investment Banks have taken to surveying the industry. They do this to make sure nothing like that financial crisis happens ever again.
What does an investment banking analyst do?
Now that we’ve covered the grounds on what the bank in itself does, let’s plunge into the job of the banker.
This set of information will help you decide if this is indeed the line of work for you and if you have the necessary education and requirements. Also, it will give you an insight as to what the different stages and departments of the job are.
Simply put, an investment banker assists its clients, both public and private corporations, in raising funds in the capital market. Also, he or she will provide crucial advice to his clients about mergers and acquisitions, strategic movements, and all sorts of financial transactions.
An Investment Bank helps companies raise money. This means that its employees, the bakers, need to perform the following services:
Use their expertise to tell companies what would the best strategy be when they want to raise their debt or their equity capital. Since most companies don’t have the in-house knowledge to do this, they must find a third party that can help them. In this way, they save a lot more money and time than if they created their strategic department.
Since most companies don’t have the in-house knowledge to do this, they must find a third party that can help them. In this way, they save a lot more money and time than if they created their strategic department. They prepare all the paperwork . To prove that a certain financial strategy is good or not, investment bankers need to prepare presentations and reports that factually state the reasons behind their choice. They need to steer the company clear of any misunderstandings. Also, they need to assess the costs and plan them according to the company’s budget.
All the top IBs prepare what is called a private placement memorandum, or a PPM. This is a legal document, meant to protect both the company and its investor from taking shady routes.

All the top IBs prepare what is called a private placement memorandum, or a PPM. This is a legal document, meant to protect both the company and its investor from taking shady routes. They need to make sure that all legal requirements are met. Raising capital needs to be done in ways that comply with the law, needless to say. And it’s the Investment Banker’s job to make sure neither party is on the wrong side of the tracks should the IRS decide to chime in. This particular part of the job is extremely important. The reason is that, when raising capital, companies usually break laws they didn’t even know existed to begin with. This might come back to haunt them if the banker is not on top of things at all times.
How much does an investment banking analyst earn?
Simply put, a lot.
It’s normal for the wages to be high, given all that we explained above. It’s a difficult job, with a lot of pressure and responsibility placed on the banker’s shoulders, especially if he’s working on big accounts. Therefore, his salary should match his work and his performances.
Starting from 2013, salaries for an assistant or junior investment banker with a business degree range from $100 000 to $150 000 after bonus. The starting salary, as offered by most investment banks in New York City, for example, comes down to $75 000. And you also get a $15 000 or $20 000 bonus for signing. This means that you’re looking at a cool $8000 a month, as a beginner. You can also receive further bonuses. Depending on your personal performance, they range from $20 000 to $40 000.
Education matters most because you get paid according to that as well. An MBA degree in your CV will secure you a salary that ranges between $120 000 and $220 000, after bonus. However, you need to know that this is just an average. Wages do depend on the state and even region you’re working in.
What you need to know about an entry level investment analyst job?
Needless to say, the first thing you need to do is get through the door. Here are the main things you need to know on how to do that:
College degrees are very important. Usually, investment banks hire people with business degrees, so make sure to choose the right college if you want to pursue this career.
When you enter in a bank, freshly out of college, your job will be Analyst or Financial Analyst.
You need to spend two or three years in this position before you can leave to get and MBA, or before you can get promoted to But seeing as you need an MBA to be promoted to Associate, you will most likely leave to complete your education.
It’s a very tricky job to get. As stated above, it’s very difficult, it’s risky, and you need to be really good to simply get in, not to mention getting promoted.
There are less than 20 000 job opening per annum for Junior Analysts. This is bad news because the pool of applicants is 5 to 10 times larger. Also, the applicants pool is very high quality. This translates the hiring process into selecting the best of the best.
Do not base your future job prospects on big companies coming to select applicants from colleges. This doesn’t even happen for Ivy League schools. Therefore, you need to apply for jobs yourself. As many and as often as possible.
Do not waste too much time on the Internet. The best part of jobs is not advertised at all. You need to understand this is a very closed arena. They don’t find the need to advertise since applicants come knocking at their doors in droves. However, you can use the Bloomberg machine, for its job board area, the New York Times classifieds and sites such as Indeed.
Here are some tips to get ready:
Always be prepared for an intelligent conversation. This means learning as much as possible about your possible employer’s line of work. Be it technology or telecommunications, you need to know everything about it.
Be presentable and well dressed.
Smile and make a few jokes, to show them that you will be able to connect to their clients on a personal level. Befriending people is the best way to attract new business.
If you don’t know something, say it. Don’t babble and do not make up things. They will appreciate an honest answer, formulated as follows: “I don’t know how to answer this question, but I know (insert field literature source) has a piece on it. I must read it as soon as possible”. This will show them you are honest and that, even though you don’t have a specific piece of information, you know where to find it.
Being an investment banking associate
As shown above, an investment banker reaches this position after he or she has spent a few years as a junior or analyst. Also, you need an MBA to be promoted or to be hired directly into this position. Let’s see what being an associate means.
First and foremost, when you become an associate, you need to know that you are in. This is when the game starts. Because you will have to prove yourself.
Here are the skills you need to have:
You must know how to do DCF valuations. You must be a true master of Excel. You need to be able to get clients to meet with you. This might sound easy, but it implies some out of the ordinary communication and people skills. You must be able to do business with very important people. They have been described as having enormous egos and being difficult to please. You need to be able to track past deals and sense which direction the market is going in Prepare documents and paperwork on debt and deals regarding equities. Preparing pitch books should become your second nature. You need to understand the psychological part of your job. Remember that it’s not easy. Otherwise anybody could do it. You will be faced with a chaotic environment. It will be stressful, and you will be working very long hours. Always take an initiative. Come up with ideas and be pro-active. After all, it’s your job to solve financial problems for your clients. And this is why you shouldn’t wait for them to ask you for a solution. Networking is crucial. Remember that, if you are good, you will only spend a few years as an associate. The next step is having your clients and initiating your deals. This is why, while still working under your boss, network as much as possible, prospect the maker early on and make friends. Never stop learning.
Being a private equity analyst
Private equity analyst or PE is one of the paths you can choose while working as an investment banker. He or she is the person who does the research and analysis on private companies. Therefore, if this sounds like something you are interested in, here are the basics.
As the name suggests, you will be working with private equity firms, trying to determine if it’s worth it or not to invest in stocks belonging to a certain company.
You will be performing financial modeling, and you will be evaluating the companies your clients want to invest in. As far as evaluating the companies go, there are two techniques being used today: Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) and Internal Rate of Return (IRR). You will need to get yourself familiarized with both of them.
It’s a very risky job. The main reason is that there are no fixed criteria through which the stock value of a certain company can be determined. This means you will have to use your own sense of foretelling and judgment when you make a recommendation.
Your main objective is to maximize your client company’s investment portfolio.
When you make a recommendation, you will need to build a detailed review of the financial statements of the company being considered.
You will also have to review all the potential new private equity investment opportunities.
Being a venture capital analyst jobs
Another path you can choose apart from the private equity one is a venture capital analyst job. Here is what you need to know about this job.
Usually, people in this position come from the following backgrounds: corporate or consulting, because they will know how to run all the operations, entrepreneurial because they have experience in starting a new business and finance, because they know how to manage investments.
Most VCs say they spend their day researching and doing due diligence for the deals they currently have and are active. They also have meetings entrepreneurs and portfolio companies. They try to do as much networking as they can, by participating in conferences and other such events.
Here are some of the things you will be doing as a VC:
Putting together the quarterly report
Investment tracking
Managing the website revamps
Helping the company’s existing portfolio with projects. You can either be proactive and come up with your own, or you can work on existing ones.
Doing the exit analysis for existing clients of the company
Doing diligence work on certain companies that you want to invest into
Organizing all sorts of community events, where you can represent your company, your boss or do heavy networking.
Here is your beginner’s guide to being an Investment Banker.
So, what does an Investment Banker do? He analyzes of course, would be the simplest answer. However, you may have noticed what a complicated and difficult world investment banking is. It’s very tough to get in, as you need to have a business degree and competitive skills. And when you do get in, that’s where the hard part starts, as you need to run the game. But the rewards are so high when the time comes to reap them, that it’s all worth it in the end.

Man tracks down stolen iPhone using location app then films violent confrontation as he takes law into his own hands
A vigilante iPhone owner has tracked down a man who allegedly stole the gadget by using a location app - and then filmed their violent confrontation.
Kenneth Schmidgall, a 26-year-old construction worker from San Diego, California, took the law into his own hands after the phone was taken at a reggae concert on December 28.
After he repeatedly called the phone to no answer, he and his friend Greg Torkelson launched an iPhone app two days later called 'Find My iPhone' to track down the device using GPS.

Vigilante: A video shows a violent altercation after Kenneth Schmidgall, right, tracked down his missing iPhone using a location map to the man he is seen punching
Fighting back: The man allegedly hit Schmidgall in the face while holding a rock
They spent hours tracking the phone's signal until they realised it led to a man riding a bicycle.
'I saw the gentleman on the bike and we followed it and kept tracking it and every time [the tracker] would stop, the guy on the bike would stop,' Schmidgall told ABC News 10 .
With a hand-held camera rolling, they followed the man, losing him three times before they eventually caught up with him at the Torrey Pines State Reserve.
On the footage, which has since spread across social networking sites, Schmidgall can be seen getting hit in the face. He claims the alleged thief pushed his face while holding a rock.
VIDEO Man tackles alleged thief over iPhone
Assistance: An off-duty police officer eventually helped pin down the man, who was also peppersprayed
Seized: Authorities then arrived on the scene and took the man from the scene in handcuffs
TRACKING DOWN YOUR MISPLACED GADGETS: THE FIND MY iPHONE APP The app used by Mr Schmidgall is called Find My iPhone and uses the phone's signal to locate it and lead the owner to the gadget.
Using another Apple device, the owner can switch on the app and the location of the missing phone will be displayed on a map. It can also make the phone play a sound - in case it's lost somewhere within the room - display a message, remotely lock the phone or erase all of its data.
The app is free from the Apple Store.
The two continued to fight for 18 minutes - pushing and trying to knock the other to the ground - until Torkelson said he pepper-sprayed the man and attempted make a citizen's arrest.
An off-duty police officer then approached the men and pinned him on the ground until authorities arrived and took him away.
The video also shows him handing over the iPhone.
'We just wanted the phone back,' Torkelson, a photographer, said. 'Some of it was a little bit of adrenaline… you know, it was the chase of trying to get the guy.'
Schmidgall was left with a cut on the lip and a few scratches, while the alleged thief was also left with scrapes on his hands and face. Schmidgall said the man may have been on drugs.
When asked if an iPhone was worth getting injured, Schmidgall said: ' It's not the phone that's so much important. It's that people get away with this kind of stuff all the time with cellphones being stolen.
Plan: Greg Torkelson, left, filmed the altercation as the phone owner, Schmidgall, right, tackled the man
Appy ending: 'Find My iPhone' tracks down a phone by using its signal and sending a map to the owner
' I do think I taught him his lesson. I really don't think people should be going out and getting in fights with people because of their cellphones but there comes a point when you have to stand up for yourself and say, "This is my stuff, and I'm not going to let people get away with taking it".' | positive |

Last updated on June 15, 2016 Last week, five groups from Washington State and California came together at Recovery Café in Seattle to launch the Inaugural Recovery Café Network Cohort with the goal to open Recovery Cafés in their cities. Groups from Spokane, Tacoma, Vancouver (WA), Everett and San Jose (CA) joined the charter two-year cohort. Each group brings dedication to support the recovery journey as well as years of experience in the social services field. This two day training was the culmination of countless hours of hard work and a lot of heart. The Inaugural Cohort learning about the Recovery Café model When asked about the new effort, Founding Director Killian Noe stated “Our mission is to create places that welcome women and men who have suffered homelessness, addiction, and other mental health challenges into a community that will provide them with the foundation of sustained recovery needed for them to gain and maintain access to housing, social and health services, healthy relationships, education and employment.” During the two day training, cohort groups learned the basics of Recovery Café’s peer support model including: Peer facilitated support groups called Recovery Circles How to create a welcoming and healing setting for all people to thrive Fundraising Monitoring and evaluation of programming to demonstrate impact Creating a robust volunteer program that reduces stigma and building cross socio-economic community At Recovery Café, we are thankful for the numerous women and men that have supported our healing community over the last dozen years. From volunteering and donating to advocacy and accompaniment, we couldn’t have launched this new initiative without the strong support of so many in the Puget Sound region and friends from across the United States.

Marine Le Pen. Reuters/Jacky Naegelen LONDON — Far-right French politician Marine Le Pen is in New York on an unannounced visit less than four months before the French elections, Bloomberg reports.
She was spotted in Trump Tower on Thursday, but a a spokesperson for President-elect Donald Trump said neither Trump nor his team was meeting with Le Pen and added that "Trump Tower is open to the public," CNN reports.
Le Pen, who is narrowly leading the opinion polls for the first round of the French presidential elections, was one of the first European politicians to congratulate Trump on his victory and said that she would seek Trump-style repatriation of car plants if elected. She added that Trump was "putting in place measures I have been demanding for years."
Her visit to the US less than a month before she is set to launch her official presidential campaign was not publicly announced and her chief of staff called it a "private visit," according to Bloomberg.
Trump has already met several times with UK Independence Party interim leader Nigel Farage, who was one of his most vocal European supporter during his presidential campaign.
So far, Le Pen has not had a great start to the year. She revealed last week that her party was scrambling to raise enough cash for the election and was slapped with yet another fraud investigation — this time by the French government.
Le Pen has borrowed money from Russia as her party had trouble finding European banks that would give them a loan. When asked whether she would turn to Russia again for financial support, Le Pen said: "I'm looking everywhere, including in the United States, including in Britain, absolutely everywhere."
Ever since Le Pen took over from her father as the head of the Front National, she has been working to sanitise the image of the party and bring it into the mainstream. The latest voting intention polls in France now show her narrowly leading the first round of the presidential race. | positive |
Diamondbacks first baseman Paul Goldschmidt is greeted in the dugout after scoring a run during Friday night?s game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Visit dbacks.azcentral.com for a recap of the late matchup.

(Photo: Richard Mackson-USA TODAY Sports)
Paul Goldschmidt smiled. The memories are perhaps the fondest of his career. His go-ahead triple into the corner. The dog pile near the mound. The joy on the faces of his veteran teammates. The night was Sept. 23, 2011, and the Diamondbacks’ 3-1 win over the San Francisco Giants at Chase Field clinched the National League West.
“It was loud,” Goldschmidt said. “That’s what I remember.”
Five seasons have since come and gone, and it remains the only night Goldschmidt has been able to celebrate in a Diamondbacks uniform.
With spring training set to begin this week – pitchers and catchers report to Salt River Fields on Monday, a day before their first scheduled workout – there is little to reason to believe this year will be different. The Diamondbacks could improve – perhaps they should, given how bad last year was – and they might even surprise. But no one seems to view them as true contenders.
Goldschmidt has never seemed to concern himself with predictions or expectations. Nor does he acknowledge thinking too many steps ahead. But it takes only a little imagination to envision the Diamondbacks approaching a crossroads, with Goldschmidt at the intersection.
RELATED: Five moves that shaped the D-Backs' offseason
The organization has what is widely regarded as a depleted farm system. With its bottom-third payroll, it has a pair of unwieldy contracts – deals that could be called challenging at best, crippling at worst – belonging to right-hander Zack Greinke and outfielder Yasmany Tomas. And so with few, if any, impact prospects on the horizon, the Diamondbacks likely will be faced with tough, salary-based roster decisions in the coming years.
If they again stumble out of the gate and find themselves distant contenders in the NL West, they might be forced to consider rebuilding. And that would mean deciding what to do with their franchise player.
“I would hope he’s here for the long haul,” Diamondbacks CEO Derrick Hall said. “We haven’t had those conversations. You’re talking about a guy that has been the face of our roster and continues to perform every year. I would certainly hope (we wouldn’t have to trade him).”

Since signing Goldschmidt to a team-friendly extension before the 2013 season, the Diamondbacks have received top-level production at cut-rate prices. He is widely regarded as one of baseball’s best first basemen. But, thus far, they have not been able to avoid squandering his prime.
His contract still has two more guaranteed years at $8.75 million this season and $11 million next, with a $14.5 million option for 2019. That would make him highly attractive to a contending team.
OBSTACLE: Barren farm poses challenge for D-Backs
“It would be hard to trade him,” a rival scout said. “I would think the fan base would have to have something to hold on to. He’s really the face of the organization. It would be hard to part with that.”
They also could go a different direction – a contract extension – but that likely would not come easy. Last season, Goldschmidt switched representation to Casey Close, a high-powered agent who has negotiated record-breaking deals for Clayton Kershaw and Greinke. An extension could conservatively cost the Diamondbacks in excess of $20 million per year – and perhaps much more.
Not only would that sort of deal be difficult for the Diamondbacks to afford with Greinke already on board through 2021, it also would be risky to devote those kind of resources to a player who will be in his mid-to-late 30s, particularly for a team with payroll limitations.
If they do face a rebuild, they’ll have to confront the same questions as they relate to center fielder A.J. Pollock, who will be eligible for free agency after next season.
Capitalizing on Goldschmidt’s and Pollock’s prime was part of what compelled the club to sign Greinke and trade for Shelby Miller prior to last season. And while it hasn’t happened yet, it’s possible things turn around this year. That, at least, is what the Diamondbacks are hoping.
They seem to believe it’s at least a possibility. General Manager Mike Hazen said it was part of the reason he made relatively few moves in his first winter on the job.

“We looked at the roster, with the talent on it,” Hazen said, “and we needed to give these guys a chance.”
He wasn’t ready to give any hints about what direction he’ll go should the club stumble again this season.
“We’re not really there yet in terms of sort of long-term strategic thinking,” Hazen said. “We like this team. We’ll see where this team goes. If we have to make some adjustments, we will.”
Said Hall: “We need to perform with what we’ve committed. I hope that happens. But at some point, sure, you look in the mirror and decide, ‘Is this working? Should we make a change?’
“We have to improve the quality of prospects we have, not only through the draft but through acquisitions at some point. I think this is an important season directionally to determine which way we’re going to go. But right now, we’re focused on these guys doing the job.”
Goldschmidt says that’s where his focus lies, as well. And he’s hopeful this will be the year he gets to celebrate once again.
“I remember (teammates) saying (in 2011), ‘Savor this. I’ve been waiting my whole career for it,’” he said. “You try to. But you can’t really do it justice. So now, hopefully, it’s this year where we can make the playoffs and win the World Series. It would probably mean more having gone now five years without playing in the playoffs.”
Short hops
Infielder Phil Gosselin, who was designated for assignment on Tuesday following the Daniel Descalso signing, was traded on Friday to the Pittsburgh Pirates in exchange for minor-league right-hander Frank Duncan. Duncan, 25, posted a 2.34 ERA combined in 138 2/3 innings between Double-A and Triple-A last season.
The Diamondbacks signed veteran reliever Tom Wilhelmsen to a minor-league deal. Wilhelmsen, 33, is a Tucson native who owns a 3.46 ERA in parts of six seasons in the majors.

A truly apocalyptic game should not be confused with a game that merely contains apocalyptic elements. The industry is overflowing with games about "saving the world" which means a great many game stories feature some sort of apocalyptic threat. Most of these games do not qualify as genuinely apocalyptic since the threat never actually materializes. There are, however, games where the end of the world cannot be avoided, where watching civilization go up in flames is core to the experience. Games of this sort are often unforgettable, and if you haven't experienced them you are really missing something. Here are a few of the best ones...
Fallout (PC, 1997)
The apocalyptic nature of Fallout is right there in the title. In this game you are a survivor of the nuclear holocaust, part of a small community of people who escaped into Vault 13, a government-funded nuclear shelter miles underground. There your people have lived for nearly a century, functioning on the knowledge that human civilization has been utterly destroyed. Something goes wrong with Vault 13's automated water system, and you are the lone volunteer whose job it is to brave the surface in search of replacement parts. Thus begins your encounter with the horrors of nuclear devastation.
Fallout's sense of apocalyptic finality is established in the opening credits. They are haunting, featuring a scary Ron Perlman narrating how the world ends against real-life images of nuclear death. Its documentary vibe leaves you with the feeling that everything really is over. Everything you knew about this planet is gone, reduced to ash. And you were on the last lifeboat, with no home to come back to. By the time you reach the character creation screen, the mood is palpable. You feel the death, the hopelessness, the finality of it all. And then you're told to get out of your cave and explore, else the last handful of humans will be snuffed out forever, and Earth with be nothing but a rock, floating silently in space, waiting for the Sun to swallow it.
Of course you eventually discover you are not the last person left in the world, that there were other survivors of the holocaust, and that human civilization is, slowly, hobbling back into existence. But this is up to the player to discover on their own. Much of Fallout is about finding these people, about the player pulling back the veil of hopelessness themselves, piece by piece. Fallout goes to great lengths to ensure that you begin with this sense of hopelessness, that it is a very terrifying part of your journey. I don't think I've ever felt so alone as I have in a videogame as when I stepped out of Vault 13 for the first time, the voice of Ron Perlman still echoing in my head, wondering what out there could possibly be alive.
Odin Sphere (PS2, 2007)
Odin Sphere is one of the most apocalyptic games ever, featuring mass death and destruction on such a fabulous scale that by the time you even reach the last boss the entire world is already destroyed. When you, as the Valkyrie Gwendolyn, fight Levanthan, a dragon so gigantic to twists back and forth across the visible sky, the known world has already been swallowed up completely by the sea. This gives the last boss fight an eeire feeling, since what you are trying to accomplish is not entirely clear. It's certainly not saving the world. You and Levanthan feel like the last two creatures on Earth, and your only choice is to destroy each other. What's left afterwards, assumedly, will be nothing.
Odin Sphere is based very loosely on Norse mythology, with the concept of Ragnarok being central to the game. There are five playable characters in Odin Sphere: a Valkyrie, an knight, a fairy, and a witch. Each of them plays a part in the apocalypse, and for most of the game the player assumes they are destined to avert this apocalypse. But no. What happens is they all play a part in ensuring that the apocalypse happen correctly. Over the course of the game you collect books which cryptically describe the end of the world. If you interpret them correctly, and make the right choices in the final hours, the world ends with a chance of beginning again in the future. If you make the wrong choices, the world ends permanently. But either way, the world ends. The oceans boil. The skies fall. Cities are swallowed. People die by the millions. When they say Ragnarok in this game, they mean fucking Ragnarok.
The desperation of Odin Sphere is summed up by a brief cut-scene* at the end. Gwendolyn's lady in waiting, Myris, whom you've been friends with the whole game, stands atop the last mountain on Earth as it sinks into the boiling sea. She pleads, assumedly to God, that just two people survive so that her death and the deaths of untold millions won't be in vain. Then she sobs as the mountain crumbles into nothing. You only see this cinematic if you make a mistake near the end and get one of the "bad" endings. However, it is clear that this scene does take place, off screen, even in the good ending. As Gwendolyn is flying up to fight Levanthan, she looks down and sees the mountain crumble, apologizing to Myris that she couldn't save her. So there you have it. Even though in the best ending Gwendolyn and her lover alone survive to repopulate the world, civilization still gets wiped out in a wave of unimaginable horror. That's about as happy as Odin Sphere gets, making it one of the most melancholy games you will ever play.
Final Fantasy VI (SNES, 1994)
Every Japanese RPG is about saving the world. Final Fantasy VI is the only one where you don't. Midway through FFVI, when the typical genre elements are coming together, when the ancient power that will ravage the world is about to be unleashed, and you, the lone heroes, stand together to stop it... the unthinkable happens. You fuck up, and the world is ripped to pieces. Cut to one year later. The land is a waste. The sea is an endless brown sludge. The sky is red. All your party members are gone--dead, for all you know--and you are alone on a small island in the middle of a dead world, waiting to die.
Final Fantasy VI has balls, to say the least. I remember opening the package for the first time and looking at the game map. It had two sides. On one was the World of Balance, which looked all nice and green, and on the other was the World of Ruin, which looked like Earth after God used it for toilet paper. I had assumed the World of Ruin was some kind of netherworld, some magical dark reflection of the World of Balance, which you would go to periodically though out the game. It never even occurred to me that it represented a permanent change to the game, that after a certain point in Final Fantasy VI that brown turd of a world would be the only one you had. This reality came as big of a shock to me as it did to the characters in the story. I remember sitting there slack-jawed in disbelief as the continents ripped themselves apart before my eyes, followed by the ominous on-screen text: "On that day, the world was changed forever..."
The rest of the game is about surviving in this horrible world, about pulling yourself up, out of the misery, and finding something to live for. It's not easy. You have to travel around this wasteland, gathering up all your old friends one by one, having to convince each one not to give in to despair. You start with nothing but a wooden raft. The beautiful overworld music has been replaced by the sound of desolate, ceaseless wind. And there isn't a pixel of green color to be seen as you trudge across the desert landscape. None of this ever goes away, making the final hours of the game a painful adjustment process. There is hope to be found, you eventually discover, as well as beauty, in this dead world. But, by God, you have to work to find it. The sense of loss Final Fantasy VI is unlike any other game. No other game so decisively takes everything away from you and simply tells you to deal with it.
The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask (N64, 2000)
How can one of the most apocalyptic games be one in which you avert the apocalypse? Isn't that breaking the rule? Majora's Mask certainly is a game where, at the end, you successfully save the world and avert the impending apocalypse. However, by that time you've experienced Armageddon more times than you can count. Majora's Mask is a game about time travel. In this game the only way to save the world is to witness its end over, and over, and over. Each time the world ends you just rewind time with your magical Ocarina and let it happen again. You have to study it. You have to find the key that will help you, one day, successfully prevent it. But that day is long in coming, and you will fail countless times before you succeed, making this the most brutal, relentless, and numbing apocalyptic experience in videogames.
In Majora's Mask the world is ending in three days, and that is not enough time to save it, even though you are Link, the hero of all the Zelda games, whose saved the world countless times before. This time, however, things aren't so easy. The moon is crashing into the earth in 72 hours, and you've got exactly that long to stop it. Majora's Mask takes place in real time, meaning the clock is ticking. Look up at any moment and you will see the moon inching closer. Your magical Ocarina can slow down time, but not stop it. Either way that moon in crashing, so you'd better hurry up and do your hero thing. Oh, wait. You got stuck in a dungeon and it took you 2 days to get through it? Tough shit, Link. Get ready for the end of the world.
The most harrowing thing about Majora's Mask is the people you meet. They are all in various stages of denial about the end of the world, and as you get increasingly familiar with them, with their daily lives, you become a witness to how they all deal with death. I doubt anyone who played Majora's Mask can forget the story of Anju and Kafei, two lovers kept apart by a curse. Over the course of the 72 hours you see Anju's misery at being away from her lover, how it makes the looming apocalypse all the more horrible for her. You know at 2:00 on the Second Day she will go for a walk and cry by herself in the park, and that she will run for the hills, without Kafei, at 6:00 on the Third Day. If you try really hard you can unite them, although you cannot ever lift the curse that has transformed Kafei. The best you are able to do is lead Kafei, in his cursed form, to Anju in the final hours, so they can share a final moment together before the end. As the moon is tearing the town apart around them they thank you and prepare for death. Such bitter moments are typical of Majora's Mask, and they will haunt you even after you finally solve the time puzzle and save the world.
Conclusion
It occurs to me that all of these games except one are Japanese. The scholar in me thinks this probably has something to do with the stronger apocalyptic tradition in Japanese pop-art. Japan has a strong apocalyptic sensibility, which some say is connected with their shared cultural experience of the atomic bomb. Interestingly, the only game on this list which features actual nuclear devastation is the non-Japanese one. Perhaps for the Japanese nuclear war hits too close to home? On the other hand, you see them dealing with apocalyptic anxiety pretty openly through fantasy. It's hard to find a Western game that forces players to deal with the finality of apocalyptic change, realistic or imagined, whereas in Japan it is a little easier. That's how it appears to me at least, based on these examples, which, I admit, are pretty narrow.
* Unfortunately, the only clip I could find of this cut-scene was in English. The English voice-acting is somewhat hammy, so I apologize. One of the great things about Odin Sphere is that it has a Japanese language option, making it a lot easier to take seriously all its melodrama. Watch this clip with the sound off if you want. It's subtitled. | positive |

Unfortunately, many people experience unsatisfactory encounters with businesses, and in turn, spread the bad news to anyone who will listen. You can prevent this from happening to your company by utilizing emotional intelligence in your customer interactions. When emotional intelligence and customer satisfaction are the focal point of business transactions, customer loyalty and company growth are inevitable. What is Emotional Intelligence? Emotional intelligence refers to a person’s ability to read, interpret, and even control the emotions of themselves or those around them. In simple terms related to business – do you know how to use empathy to help your customers feel valued? Managing emotions in customer service is important from the very beginning of your interaction with a consumer, and is crucial when they are unhappy with the company or product. How Does Emotional Intelligence Affect Customer Service? Emotional intelligence consists of two major components. The first is an awareness of your own emotions and the ability to maintain control over them in difficult situations. The second is an awareness of others’ emotions and the ability to influence them toward a positive outcome. When it comes to emotional intelligence in customer service, both of these components play an important role. Employees need to be able to resist becoming offended by angry customers, as well as calmly resolve any issues that arise. Ideally, an employee will be able to guide the customer to feeling valued and satisfied with the outcome of the conversation. The Value of Self-Awareness in Customer Service An employee exercising self-awareness in customer service situations is highly valuable. Fortunately, this skill is one that can be acquired by your current team members if needed. However, it is also helpful to look for this skill and when employees are hired. A natural ability to empathize with customers and coworkers will be beneficial for problem-solving in many job aspects. When difficult customer service situations arise, a self-aware employee is better able to use their emotional intelligence to enhance customer engagement. Emotional Intelligence in an Interview During job interviews, you can look for the following characteristics to determine whether a candidate possesses emotional intelligence. Good Listener – Are they actively engaged when you outline your expectations for the available position? Effective Communicator – Do they clearly and confidently answer questions, even when describing past workplace challenges? Positive Attitude – Are they polite? Enthusiastic? Friendly? Good Problem Solver – Are they able to empathize with others in hypothetical job scenarios? Do they provide reasonable solutions to problems? Being Genuine – Do they demonstrate emotional availability by showing that they care about what they do, and what the job’s position entails? Talks About Growth – Does the interviewee have the ability to acknowledge mistakes and learn from them? What is the Meaning of “Internal Customer?” An internal customer is someone within your company who depends on other employees to complete a specific process. For example, your sales team may rely on your customer service team to complete the ordering process for your customers. In this situation, the emotional intelligence of your customer service employees will directly affect the job satisfaction of your sales team. To maintain good relationships among employees, there must be an understanding of how to use emotional awareness within the company, as well as with customers. How to Improve Emotional Intelligence in the Workplace If you have employees with less than desirable emotional intelligence, it is possible to provide training and encouragement for developing this ability. When the employee is aware of the need for personal growth and willing to work on this skill, they can focus on a few key areas. For example, they can learn to become aware of situations that trigger stress and negative emotions, and then find ways to maintain control when these triggers are present. If you have multiple employees who need improvement, there are groups who provide emotional intelligence service orientation at the corporate level.

It took Rafael dos Anjos 18 fights and almost seven years to earn his first shot at a UFC belt.
The wait, however, paid off. After dominantly upsetting Anthony Pettis, dos Anjos got a taste of gold. Now, as he makes his way through a whole new division at 170 pounds, the former lightweight titleholder is confident he can do it again. Only this time, a little – or maybe a lot – faster.
“Now, as an ex-champ, I think the path is shorter,” dos Anjos told MMAjunkie. “Demian (Maia) just had his shot at the belt and couldn’t get it. Tyron Woodley defended it. (Donald) Cerrone’s fight with (ex-champ) Robbie Lawler – I thought Cerrone won, but it was tough. In my opinion, Lawler wasn’t convincing, so I think that fight removed him from a possible title rematch. (Jorge) Masvidal lost to Demian.
“Stephen Thompson will probably fight Masvidal and had two title fights already. I’m behind in the rankings, but the path is kind of open. I think with a win over (Neil) Magny, considering I’m an ex-champ, I think I’m pretty close. I’m not too far.”
But first things first. Dos Anjos (26-9 MMA, 15-7 UFC) is set to continue his welterweight path next month, at UFC 215, when he meets Magny (19-5 MMA, 12-4 UFC) at Rogers Place in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. It will be the Brazilian ex-champ’s second octagon go as a 170-pounder, after a June trip to Singapore resulted in an unanimous-decision win over Tarec Saffiedine.
It may be early in his 170-pound walk, but dos Anjos sees a possible win over the ranked, battle-tested Magny as a big boost in an overall stacked division. And while his focus is now on that, he has already started planting some seeds for the not-so-distant future.
A few days ago, for instance, he took to Twitter to make sure to let champion Tyron Woodley – then fresh off his UFC 214 title defense against Demian Maia – aware of his intentions. The low-key callout, however, doesn’t mean that dos Anjos doesn’t respect him.
In fact, dos Anjos thinks Woodley is great fighter. But dos Anjos also believes he has what it takes to throw the champ off his game.
“He has that game of circling around, of not wanting to take risks,” dos Anjos said. “With me, he’s going to be at risk. I won’t let him feel comfortable. I think in his past two fights, he wasn’t in jeopardy. Stephen Thompson fought very technically and strategically. Not that I won’t use strategy and technique, but I have this (stronger) pace.
“I’ll push the pace and he’ll have to go to work. I won’t let him circle around – he’ll take me down, I’ll take him down, the fight will be a scramble. I’ll push his pace. And I think that’s when I’ll get the better of him.”
Dos Anjos pauses for a second, and then adds with a laugh.
“I think after my fight with him, people might even buy his pay-per-view.”
‘Lose one more, and everyone starts calling for your retirement’
Regardless of whom he’ll have to beat to get there, dos Anjos has a few reasons to believe he can be champion again.
First of all, despite his extensive octagon experience, dos Anjos is only 32 and sees a lot of fighting ahead of him, still. That, in turn, is helped by the fact that, after years of the depleting cut down to 155 pounds, he’s found renewed energy – as well as physical and emotional relief – from his new weight status.
And there’s also the fact that, despite a two-fight skid to start his UFC run – and some tough setbacks after them – he’s made it there once.
“I tasted it, and I know how hard it is to get there,” dos Anjos said. “I know I can do it. I know I can do it again. I have it what it takes.”
From the start, dos Anjos has been clear about how comfortable he was with the decision to move up. While it was something he’d been thinking about even while he still held the belt, the definitive call came after an ill-fated UFC Fight Night 98 meeting with Tony Ferguson – which also meant a second straight loss after the title-costing TKO to now-also-ex-champ Eddie Alvarez.
After so many years of repeating the process of dehydrating his body and exposing his head to trauma the day after, dos Anjos decided it was time to put himself – and his health – first.
“I thought, ‘I’m going to end up having a problem here,'” dos Anjos said. “I heard a lot (of criticism). ‘Oh, those guys are huge.’ So what? I don’t care. I train with welterweights everyday. I train well with all them. I’ll also be stronger, healthier and my quality of life will improve. That’s what matters.”
Dos Anjos is totally at peace with the fresh start. Not only has his training improved, but even his family life has been positively impacted by what’s ultimately a much less grueling day-to-day. But, looking back, he admits it wasn’t all sunshine and rainbows when he walked into the octagon for his 170-pound debut.
“I’m not going to lie, I felt very pressured for that last fight,” dos Anjos said. “I think I even got a little more tired than usual. I really pushed the pace of the fight, but I did get more tired because I was a little nervous. I lost the belt – and then, in my return fight, I lost. I switched divisions. You know how it goes – lose one more and everyone starts calling for your retirement. And I know I still have a lot to do.
“I was nervous. I was confident, but anxious. Thankfully, it all worked out. I’m on my way. I saw that the move to welterweight (worked). Although I’d fought in this division before the UFC, I was worried about the strength of the opponents. But I saw that, though the guys are stronger, I’m stronger too. The pressure is off.”
The keys to Neil Magny
Despite the confidence that he can make his way back to the top again, dos Anjos knows that he has a tough first step ahead, and that is Magny, who’ll return after a more than eight-month layoff – the longest of the 30-year-old fighter’s remarkably active UFC run.
Currently ranked No. 10 in the latest USA TODAY Sports/MMAjunkie MMA welterweight rankings, Magny comes off a decision win over ex-champ Johny Hendricks. In his past 13 fights, he’s only lost twice – falling victim to Lorenz Larkin’s heavy blows and Maia’s well-known grappling prowess.
“He’s a good fighter,” dos Anjos analyzed. “But he doesn’t have any specialties. He’s good at everything, but he’s not excellent at anything.”
While he believes that Magny does have a good ground game, dos Anjos also thinks he may be too willing to accept it. Which, for him, has meant falling into the traps of two grappling experts – other than Maia, Magny was also finished by jiu-jitsu ace Sergio Moraes.
With that in mind, dos Anjos thinks putting his black belt skills to use may end up being a path to victory. But it’s not the only one.
“I’m going to do my usual game,” dos Anjos said. “I’m going to move forward. He has a good gas tank – he can put on a solid pace for 15 minutes. I think it will be a great fight. I’ll push the pace, too. The ground game is one way to go, but I’ll try to work my striking, too, and try to hurt him a little bit there. And, if it goes to the ground, I’ll settle it there.
“He’s long, but he doesn’t use his reach very well, from what I’ve seen. He fights with his arms closer to his body and he moves forward, chasing the fight. I like fighting taller, lankier guys like Nate Diaz, or Cerrone. I like it. Even Tarec Saffediene.”

Japanese Test star Ayumu Goromaru has returned to the Reds staring XV to face the Hurricanes, as vice-captain Rob Simmons marks his 100th cap.
Regular fullback Karmichael Hunt has been ruled out of the team with injury, leaving the door open for Goromaru to come into the 15 jersey.
Replacement hooker Saia Fainga'a has also been ruled out with injury, bringing Matt Mafi into the 23.
Reds co-coach Nick Stiles said there would be no lack of motivation heading into the clash, against a vastly different Hurricanes side.
“The team recognises the significance of this match, both in testing ourselves against one of the competition leaders and in putting up a performance worthy of Rob Simmons' 100th cap for Queensland. It’s a fantastic achievement for Rob and he joins an elite group of centurions who have represented this state. It’s a just reward for his dedication and professionalism over a number of years," he said.
“Injury has meant that we’ve had to make a couple of changes to the side, but the guys we’re bringing in are familiar with what we’re trying to do and we’re confident in what they can offer. Being able to bring a guy of Ayumu Goromaru’s experience straight into the starting side is a big benefit for us. This is a good opportunity for him to step up and demonstrate what we know he is capable of.”

Alice Crimmins (born 1939) is an American woman who was charged with killing her two children, 5-year-old Eddie and 4-year-old Alice Marie, known as Missy, who went missing on July 14, 1965.[1][2][3] Alice Marie's body was found that day, and Eddie Jr.'s was found five days later. In 1971, she was convicted of murder of her son and manslaughter of her daughter. In November 1977, she was released on parole.[4]
The killing of her children [ edit ]
Her children, Eddie Jr., age 5, and Missy, age 4, disappeared from their garden apartment in Kew Gardens Hills on July 14, 1965. She reported to the police that her children were missing. Some days after that, Missy was found strangled. Later, Eddie was also found dead, but identifying the cause of his death was impossible.[4]
No physical evidence was found which could connect her to the murders. Nevertheless, she was put on trial and found guilty in May 1968.
No evidence could be found tying anyone to the deaths. Crimmins was followed and covertly recorded by the New York Police Department for two years, before finally being charged and going to trial in 1968.[1] She was found guilty and sent to prison, later released on appeal, recharged and found guilty again in 1971, overturned in 1973, reinstated and reincarcerated in 1975.[1] She was paroled in 1977.[5]
The Crimmins trial has been compared by some in the media to the Casey Anthony trial.[6][7]

It has been nearly 20 years since my 3-year-old son, Casson Xavier “Biscuit” Evans, was killed in a drive-by shooting in Denver. Back then, I wanted the three teenagers charged with his death to spend the rest of their lives behind bars.
Today, I believe it serves no good to sentence a child to die in prison. It doesn’t bring back our lost loved ones and it fails to acknowledge that we are all better than the worst thing we have done. I want to see the young people involved in Casson’s death rehabilitated and, when they are ready, returned to society.
As we observe Victim Rights Awareness Week, I want to share the story of how I came to develop a relationship with the boy — who is now a young man — accused of pulling the trigger in Casson’s death and why I have agreed to take an important role in his life.
It was Dec. 21, 1995. There had been shootings by rival gangs the night before in my niece’s neighborhood in Denver and I had gone by to pick up her child. Casson was sleeping, so I left him and his 6-year-old brother Calvin in the car with two older cousins – one 17 and the other 22. I had been inside only briefly when I heard gunshots. Casson had been shot in the crossfire. He died in my arms.
Three children were arrested and held responsible. Two were 16; the driver was 15. During the trial a few months later, Raymond, one of the 16-year-olds, said he would change places with Casson if he could. I had already forgiven the boys because I knew it was necessary for my own healing. But I was fine with prosecutors’ recommendation of life sentences without the possibility of parole. That seemed to represent justice.
But children often make decisions without thinking through the consequences. We know from science that teenagers’ brains are still developing, particularly the parts that affect judgment and impulse. This also makes them particularly amenable to rehabilitation, which should be the focus of any punishment imposed upon children.
I opposed the first effort by Colorado legislators to eliminate life without parole sentences for youth. By their second effort — in 2006 — I’d had a change of heart. Today I am a strong believer in restorative justice.
Raymond and I had our first restorative justice dialogue in March 2012. I told him in person about Casson and about my pain. I also told him that I forgive him. Even when they are involved in serious crimes, once our children pay their debts to society, they should have a chance to return home to become productive citizens and to give back to their communities.
My phone number was recently added to the list that Raymond may call. In his first call to me, I told him that he sounds healthy and confident. He said that he does his best to keep a good disposition but sometimes gets depressed. He has called me several times since then. I enjoy his conversations, and his letters are becoming more expressive. I want Raymond to know he can be honest with me and speak from his heart. He seems to be taking that to heart.
The Department of Corrections has also approved my nonprofit organization, Victim Offender Mitigation Initiative (VOMI), to team with another organization to go into prisons and share our story with inmates in a 14-week, faith-based restorative justice curriculum.
As much as I would like to, I can’t go back to the days before Casson was killed. All I can do is try to help make sure no parent ever faces this pain and that both victims and offenders can heal from the traumas they have endured.
This week and always, I remind us that victims have a variety of perspectives, and many of us want to see reform in our juvenile sentencing practices. Children can and do change. Some people may demonstrate that they are not ready to be released, but those who are should be granted that opportunity. That is necessary to ensure fairness for them and for our society.
I am energized and will continue to work on this issue. I invite you to join me.

We're down to eight contenders in our search for N.J.'s best craft brewery.
After 500-plus nominations and 15,428 votes, we have the Elite Eight in our happy/hoppy version of March Madness.
The top four vote-getters in our online poll comprise half the field; I picked the other four. Several peoples' picks may have been my own if they had not been voted in.
As with our previous N.J.'s best competitions - best bar, best burger, best diner, best Italian restaurant, best ice cream shop, best sub/hoagie shop - it was impossible to pick my half of the field; there are 83 operating craft breweries and brew pubs in New Jersey, according to newjerseycraftbeer.com
But tough choices again had to be made. I relied heavily on all those online recommendations and e-mails, especially those that provided detailed info on a favorite place. The semifinalists are spread, as usual, around the state, and are a nice mix of heavyweights and relative unknowns.
I'll visit our Elite 8 this week: Thursday, March 23; Saturday, March 25 and Sunday, March 26. Check back later for the day-by-day schedule of semifinalist visits.
On Tuesday, March 28, we'll announce our Final Four, and visit those breweries that weekend. Our winner will be revealed live on nj.com the week of April 3.
Here are our semifinalists; congrats to all who advanced.

Health reform goals sharpen
Medical, political and business interests seem to agree now that bold federal action is necessary.
The idea of a federal, single-payer system patterned on those in Europe and Canada, long a dream of the political left, is now virtually off the table.
At the same time, those groups, which span the ideological and political spectrum, largely have agreed to preserve the employer-based system through which most Americans get their health insurance.
The answer, say leading groups of businesses, hospitals, doctors, labor unions and insurance companies -- as well as senior lawmakers on Capitol Hill and members of the new Obama administration -- is unprecedented government intervention to create a system of universal protection.
WASHINGTON — After decades of failed efforts to reshape the nation's healthcare system, a consensus appears to be emerging in Washington about how to achieve the elusive goal of providing medical insurance to all Americans.
Rejected as well is the traditionally conservative concept, championed by Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) during the presidential campaign, of reforming healthcare mainly by giving incentives for more Americans to buy insurance on their own.
There also is a widespread understanding that any expansion of coverage must be accompanied by aggressive efforts to bring down costs and reward quality care. And key players in the healthcare debate increasingly back a massive investment of taxpayer money for healthcare reform despite the burgeoning budget deficits.
Beyond those areas of basic agreement, the details of what would be one of the most momentous changes in domestic policy since World War II remain vague.
As a presidential candidate, Barack Obama embraced both expanded insurance coverage and preservation of the job-centered system, but since he won the White House he has provided few specifics about his plans once he takes office.
Disagreements over specifics could again lead to a stalemate. Even the most sanguine advocates of sweeping reform concede that difficult negotiations lie ahead.
But what is taking shape is a debate very different from previous discussions about what America's healthcare system should look like.
"A lot has changed," said Karen Ignagni, president of America's Health Insurance Plans, or AHIP, a leading trade group whose members helped kill the Clinton administration's healthcare campaign in the early 1990s.
AHIP is participating in talks with other interest groups to build consensus before Obama takes office in January and Congress begins debating any healthcare legislation.
Unresolved issues
Among the issues to be decided as more concrete proposals emerge in the months ahead is whether the roughly 46 million uninsured people in the U.S. will be pushed to buy private coverage or will be enrolled in a government insurance program, as some consumer groups want.
Hospitals and doctors fear another public program would reduce what they are paid, as Medicare and Medicaid have done. Insurers worry they could lose customers to the government. | positive |

The state will be raising the speed limit from 55 mph to 60 mph next month on the Intercounty Connector, Maryland's first all-electronic toll road.
The decision Monday by the Maryland Transportation Authority came after more than six months of study of engineering data and the 20 single-vehicle crashes that occurred in the highway's first year of operation. It also renders moot a bill filed last month by two Montgomery County lawmakers to increase the speed.
State officials estimate the higher speed will shave 90 seconds off a trip from Interstate 270 in Gaithersburg to Interstate 95 in Laurel. Harold Bartlett, MdTA's executive director, said 60 mph is "safe and justifiable."
But just to be on the safe side, crews will be installing curve warning signs on the 18-mile road, also known as MD 200, between now and the end of March.

MARSHALL - An East Texas Christian college and one of its fraternities is being sued by a student who claims a hazing incident left him with permanent kidney failure and required that he have skin grafts over his wounds.
Xavier Christopher Foster filed suit against Jarvis Christian College, Kappa Alpha PSI Fraternity Inc., Sadallie "CJ" Cole Jr., Waymon Keith Humphrey, Bruce M. Namce and Omar Travelle McElroy on Jan. 5 in the Eastern District of Texas, Marshall Division.
Foster enrolled as a freshman at Jarvis Christian College in Hawkins in August 2009 and elected to pledge membership with Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity Inc.
Foster attended an intake meeting in March 2010 in which the college and the fraternity detailed the requirements for membership which included minimum grade point average, approval by current members and successful completion of a written examination on the history, rituals and traditions of the fraternity. At the meeting, the members expressly represented to Foster that it did not sanction physical or psychological hazing of pledges.
Foster states that he completed the requirements for membership on April 24, 2010, but that afternoon a member of the fraternity ordered him to report to the apartment for further initiation into the national fraternity and its local chapter.
According to the allegations, during the next several hours, Foster was drilled with questions and with each incorrect answer he would receive blows from heavy wooden paddles and rods. Later that evening, he was instructed to report to a second apartment in which he was further hit with paddles, rods and boards for approximately two more hours, the suit alleges.
After five hours of "near non-stop beatings, verbal and psychological abuse," he was pronounced a member of the "Century Club," which was reserved for those who could withstand at least 100 blows during the initiation process, according to the lawsuit.
By May 3, 2010, Foster was diagnosed with acute renal failure and admitted to the hospital and began dialysis. The wounds on Foster's buttocks had ruptured and required complete debridement and ongoing treatment of a wound care specialist.
He was released from the hospital eight days later. Foster states he lost 10 percent of his renal function.
The fraternity is accused of negligence for failing to instruct its members that hazing was unlawful and contrary to policies, failing to protect pledges, failing to put into place rules and regulations to ensure that local chapters did not engage in hazing, failing to enforce any existing policies or rules against hazing, failing to supervise the conduct of its members, failing to discipline members and locals chapters who participated in hazing, and failing to take reasonable steps to investigate allegations of hazing and other forms of physical or psychological violence.
The college is accused of negligence for failing to instruct fraternities that hazing was unlawful, failing to adopt regulations to protect pledges and other potential fraternity members, failing to protect pledges, failing to put into place reasonable rules and regulations to protect pledges, failing to enforce any existing policies or rules against hazing, failing to supervise the conduct of the university approved fraternities, failing to take reasonable steps to investigate allegations of hazing of other forms of physical or psychological violence.
The college and fraternity are also accused of negligence per se and gross negligence.
Foster is also accusing the fraternity members of assault and battery.
The plaintiff is seeking an award of damages for medical expenses, permanent disfigurement, physical impairment and pain, suffering and mental anguish, loss of earning capacity, exemplary damages, court costs and interest.
Foster is represented by Henderson attorney James A. Holmes.
Case No. 2:12-cv-0007 | positive |
EUGENE, Ore. -- An inmate lodged at Lane County Jail on aggravated murder charges has died after medical staff was unable to revive him following an attempted suicide, Lane County Sheriff's officials say.
The sheriff's office said 38-year-old attempted suicide on Wednesday, July 1.
He was found in his cell on Wednesday around 10 p.m. with linens around his neck, according to the report.
Jail staff found him during a routine check, called for medical staff, and made entry into the cell.
The sheriff's office said jail staff removed the ligature and began CPR. An ambulance was called, and Ringquist was taken to the hospital, where he died on Thursday evening at 8:06 p.m., the sheriff's office said.
Ringquist was lodged at the Lane County Jail on June 25 on two counts of aggravated murder after a welfare check at a Springfield residence resulted in police believed to be Ringquist's mother and father.
Authorities said that, while in jail, Ringquist was visited by mental health staff regularly and Lane County Sheriff's deputies checked on him at least hourly, consistent with state law.
Bryan Boender, a local criminal defense attorney, said that under Oregon law, inmates with a risk of suicide should be under continuous observation at staggered 15-minute intervals with an unobstructed view.
"The due process clause of the United States Constitution is violated where a correctional facility has actual knowledge of threats or risk of suicide, or serious mental illness and does nothing to reasonably respond to that risk," he said. Boender did not represent Ringquist. | positive |

In the last 20 years, one type of fat in particular has been portrayed as being especially bad for us: saturated. We are submitted to a barrage of advice: "saturated fats are killing us"; "eat low-fat spread"; "don't use lard"; "trim off all the fat from meat". In the latest instalment of this long-running saga, heart surgeon Shyam Kolvekar is now demanding that we banish butter from our diets.
But no entire food group needs to be (or should be) completely removed from our diet and fat is no exception. Each cell in the body requires fatty acids to absorb vitamins A, D, E and K. Fat adds to the taste of food and is an important energy source. We need it to support our natural growth, to keep skin healthy and taut, to protect our vision and boost our immune functions. We need it to help our brains function normally, too. And we need to eat a healthy balance of naturally occurring fats to get these benefits.
So how much fat is safe? Fats should not take up more than 35% of one's daily calorie intake. That may sound like a lot, but fat is a very intensive calorie source. For example, 100g of butter – 10 of the small packs that cafes provide with a scone – provide 717 calories, making up one third of the average female's recommended daily calorie intake of 2,000 (men's is higher, at 2,500). And "good" fats don't contain any fewer calories than bad fats, so substituting an olive oil-based spread for butter won't make you slimmer (and it will likely be laden with colourants and other undesirable additives).
But there is more to fat than calories, so knowing your trans fats from your monounsaturates is one of the best things you can do for your health.
Saturated fat
This is the most traditional source of fat and is largely animal-based. It includes the fat found in meats, butter, cheese and cream. There are also many food products that contain these fats, with cakes, biscuits and pastries being the obvious culprits. Slightly less obvious are items such as barbecued chicken, many sauce mixes, pre-frozen roast vegetables and confectionary bars. Guidelines tell us that we should not exceed 11% of our daily fat intake in this form. It is seen as a bad fat because too much of it will contribute to hardening and narrowing of the arteries.
Unsaturated fats ('good' fats)
There are two main kinds of unsaturated fats – monounsaturated and polyunsaturated. The former come mainly from the oleic acid found in most nuts, avocado pears, rapeseed and olive oils. Monounsaturated fat is believed to lower cholesterol and may assist in reducing heart disease. Like polyunsaturated fat, it provides essential fatty acids for healthy skin and the development of body cells. And polyunsaturates are the essential fatty acids that contain the richest sources of Omega-3 and Omega-6, mainly found in fish oil, sunflower and corn oils and products made from these oils. Polyunsaturates can help reduce the "bad" cholesterol caused by saturated fat. You will find good sources in cold-pressed, unfiltered organic oils such as flax and rapeseed as well as in fish oils.
Trans fatty acids (TFAs)
A by-product of hydrogenated vegetable oil, TFAs are technically monounsaturates, but have been proven to be dangerous to health. Denmark was the first country to cut them out completely, saying there was "no such thing as a safe limit". Switzerland and Austria have since followed. And this week the UK Faculty of Public Health, representing 3,300 doctors, is urging ministers to eradicate them here, too.
TFAs were originally created in 1903 when an American chemist worked out that by boiling cottonseed oil to 260C, he could make it solidify. Why did he want to do that? To make cheap candles. Proctor & Gamble spotted the potential for food and bought the patent in 1909. It soon launched Crisco shortening in the US, a wonder food that contained no animal fat, didn't soak up other flavours and had a great shelf life. It wasn't until the 1970s that researchers discovered how damaging TFAs were.
TFAs do not just lower your "good" cholesterol level; they simultaneously raise the "bad". The most important research began in the US in 1976 and ran for 13 years. It found that a 2% increase in TFA calories would bring a 23% increased risk of heart disease. So, in terms of heart health, consuming 25g of TFA is equivalent to eating an entire 227g block of butter. And something like a take-away pie could easily contain 15g of TFA.
These days, a voluntary code has drastically reduced the amount of trans fat in supermarket own-brand products, but look out for hydrogenated vegetable oil on the ingredients lists of familiar brand names. You will still find it in cakes and confectionary, instant hot drinks, ready-bake cake mixes and, most commonly, where it is unidentified: that is, in take-away foods (especially anything that has been deep-fried). Trace amounts of TFAs (less than 1%), naturally occur in meat and milk too, but these do not seem to carry any risk.
So our Victorian ancestors, it seems, had a point: stick to natural sources and just watch the quantities. There really is nothing wrong with butter as long as you spread it on in moderation. | positive |
Jarrod Wyatt also cut out his friend's tongue and ripped off most of his face in a brutal assault that police said looked like a scene from a horror film.
They found the 26 year old standing naked over his friend's body with body parts, including an eyeball, strewn around the blood splattered room.
Wyatt told police he had drunk a cup of tea spiked with hallucinogenic mushrooms and became convinced his close friend Taylor Powell was possessed.
According to an autopsy Powell,21, bled to death after his heart was ripped out.
The coroner said Powell had been alive when the organ was ripped out after his chest had been sliced open with a knife.
Wyatt told the police he thrown the heart into a fire along with other organs that he had removed from the body.
He told investigators he cooked the body parts because he was fearful Powell was still alive and he "needed to stop the Devil."
Police had been called to the grisly scene after a third friend had witnessed a sudden mood change in Wyatt after they had all ingested wild mushroom tea.
Justin Davis told police he returned to the flat in Klamath, California, to find Wyatt naked and covered from head to toe in blood.
He noticed an eyeball lying in the middle of the floor and saw Powell's mutilated body.
A lawyer representing Wyatt has claimed the wild mushrooms caused him to act in such a violent way and had not control over his actions "My client was trying to silence the devil," said James Fallman.
"I think he was having a psychotic fit based on the mushrooms he had."
Wyatt has been charged with first degree murder and torture.
Prosecutors added the torture charge as Powell was still alive when his heart was removed. | positive |

Everett Wonson (York, ME) picked up his first victory of the season with a six inning, seven strikeout performance allowing just four hits and no runs. Noah Pins (Holden, MA) picked up the save, the team's first of the year, sitting down the Monks 1-2-3 to seal the victory. Andrew Brooks netted his fourth homerun in four games with a fifth-inning blast, ultimately scoring two of the team's eight runs on the day. Game two featured a pair of Engineers with multi-hit efforts as Jacob Hand (Niskayuna, NY) finished with a 2-for-3 effort, driving in a run while Andrew Cash (Marlboro, MA) added a perfect 2-for-2 effort, driving in one and stealing a base. GAME ONE WPI's first, and ultimately game-winning, run came in the fourth inning. Jeffrey Brennan (Amsterdam, NY) started things off with a double, advancing to third after a throwing error. He came around to score a couple of batters later on an RBI double to center field by Kyle Johns (Milltown, NJ). Brooks' homerun netted WPI's lone run of the fifth inning, blasting a shot to right field. The majority of the team's offense came in the sixth inning, however, as the first three batters to step to the plate reached base, loading things up for Martin McCormack (Quincy, MA) who sent a sacrifice fly to right field driving in Dylan Connors (Westboro, MA). The following batter, Brooks, struck out, but reached first as the wild pitch sailed away, also allowing Hand to cross the plate. Brennan ripped his second double of the game, clearing the bases and giving WPI an 8-0 lead and, after Pins' 1-2-3 seventh inning, the victory. GAME TWO Saint Joseph's was the first to strike in game two putting four runs up in the bottom of the first inning. A double to center field brought home the leadoff hitter who walked to start the game off. Three-straight singles brought in another pair of runs while a fielder's choice brought home the fourth run of the inning, via four hits while the Monks left two on base. The Engineers halved the lead in the next half inning, starting off the second with a walk, followed by a single to left by Hand. McCormack reached on a fielder's choice and both he and Johns moved up a base on an error by the Monk second baseman. A single from Cash brought home the first run of the game while Kyle DeRoma (Dracut, MA) drove in the other run of the inning via a sacrifice fly. The Engineers got another one back as McCormack doubled to right field driving in Johns and after St. Josephs answered in the bottom half of the inning, WPI added another pair of runs to the total to even the score at five-all. A groundout by Johns to second base brought home Brooks while Hand singled to first base a batter later, bringing home Brennan. But in the bottom half of the fifth inning, St. Josephs sealed its victory with a five-run inning via a pair of homeruns from Cliff Ward (Cohasset, MA) and Ben Gravel (Rochester, NH) en route to the 10-5 win. The Engineers are back in action on Saturday morning with the team's final doubleheader of the RussMatt Invitational taking on St. Norbert starting at 10 am in Leesburg, FL.

By Gary Peterson | Bay Area News Group PUBLISHED: December 20, 2019 at 6:56 a.m. | UPDATED: December 20, 2019 at 8:08 a.m. A while back, when he was the general manager of the Phoenix Suns, Steve Kerr penned a column stating it was a bad idea to let basketball players fresh out of high school come straight to the NBA. Reason being: They’re fresh out of high school. Kerr suggested “that they make the rule two years, staying in college because I felt like players needed more seasoning.” This week Kerr admitted to NBC Sports’ Monte Poole that he has had a change of heart. “Yeah, I’d be in favor,” Kerr said. “I’ve changed my mind on that.” Why the change of heart? Hater/cynics, and the Warriors have plenty of those, might point out that young players and the NBA draft were nonfactors for Kerr and the Warriors while they were ringing up championships and drafting on the back end of the first round. The Dubs currently own the worst record in the league. They need a lottery-type talent. Barring something unforeseen, they’ll have access to one, right away, without having him put in drydock for two years. Last month the Warriors sent Bob Myers, Mike Dunleavy, and Larry Harris to Oregon to scout Memphis center James Wiseman. At 7-foot-1, 240, he would fill a need for the Dubs. (Disclaimer: about 40 years ago people were saying the same thing about Joe Barry Carroll.) But the Warriors traveling party had barely wiped the drool from their chin when Wiseman was ruled ineligible by the NCAA. Poole reports Wiseman “plans to sign with an agent and prepare for the June draft.” To be continued.

We’re getting better with it. “So, I would like to see players have the option if they wanted to come straight out of high school because we can at least offer them a better path of development.” And if that path leads to the Warriors’ front door, so much the better.

Lesson #1: There is Something Special About Christmas
How the Grinch Stole Christmas
Fah who for-aze!
Dah who dor-aze!
Welcome Christmas,
Come this way!
Fah who for-aze!
Dah who dor-aze!
Welcome Christmas,
Christmas Day.
Welcome, Welcome
Fah who rah-moose
Welcome, Welcome
Dah who dah-moose
Christmas day is in our grasp
So long as we have hands to clasp
Fah who for-aze!
Dah who dor-aze!
Welcome, welcome Christmas
Welcome, welcome Christmas Day
So he paused. And the Grinch put a hand to his ear.
And he did hear a sound rising over the snow.
It started in low. Then it started to grow...
But the sound wasn't sad!
Why, this sound sounded merry!
It couldn't be so!
But it WAS merry! VERY!
He stared down at Who-ville!
The Grinch popped his eyes!
Then he shook!
What he saw was a shocking surprise!
Every Who down in Who-ville, the tall and the small,
Was singing! Without any presents at all!
He HADN'T stopped Christmas from coming!
IT CAME!
Somehow or other, it came just the same!
And the Grinch, with his grinch-feet ice-cold in the snow,
Stood puzzling and puzzling: "How could it be so?
It came without ribbons! It came without tags!
"It came without packages, boxes or bags!"
And he puzzled three hours, `till his puzzler was sore.
Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn't before!
"Maybe Christmas," he thought, "doesn't come from a store.
"Maybe Christmas...perhaps...means a little bit more!"
Lesson #2: Christmas Means Misfits Have a Place
Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer
We're a couple of misfits
We're a couple of misfits
What's the matter with misfits
That's where we fit in!
We're not daffy and dilly
Don't go 'round willy nilly
Seems to us kinda silly
That we don't fit in.
We may be different from the rest
Who decides the test
Of what is really best?
We're on the Island of Misfit Toys
Here we don't want to stay
We want to travel with Santa Claus
In his magic sleigh!
A pack full of toys
Means a sack full of joys
For millions of girls
And for millions of boys
When Christmas Day is here
The most wonderful day of the year.
A jack-in-the-box waits for children to shout
"Wake up! Don't you know that it's time to come out!"
When Christmas Day is here
The most wonderful day of the year.
Toys galore, scattered on the floor
There's no room for more
And it's all because of Santa Claus.
A skooter for Jimmy
A dolly for Sue
The kind that will even say, "How do you do?"
When Christmas Day is here
The most wonderful day of the year.
How would you like to be a Spotted Elephant?
Or a Choo-Choo with square wheels on your caboose?
Or a water pistol that shoots -- jelly?
We're all misfits!
How would you like to be a bird that doesn't fly? I swim!
Or a cowboy who rides an ostrich?
Or a boat that can't stay afloat?
We're all misfits.
If we're on the Island of Unwanted Toys
We'll miss all the fun with the girls and the boys
When Christmas Day is here
The most wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful day of the year!
Lesson #3: The True Meaning of Christmas
A Charlie Brown Christmas
I learned that Christmas was MORE and that it had something to do with finding community.
I learned that, because of Christmas, there were no more misfits, no more outsiders or marginalized ones.
I learned about empathy, compassion, and that Messiahs might be misfits.
I learned about how community can be the route for the redemption of evil.
And here with Charlie Brown, I learned that the humility of Christmas makes it oft overlooked and despised.
In 2007 I wrote a series entitled "Everything I Learned about Christmas I Learned from TV." That series has been one of the most popular things I've written and it's been my tradition to post it again every Christmas season. The original series was comprised of three different posts. This year I've pulled them together into a single post. One link and you have the whole thing.As a child I loved all the children's Christmas shows., and, to name a few. With no videos, cable, NetFlix or DVR these shows were once a year opportunities. If you missed a show, you wouldn't see it again for an entire year.So, these were BIG events in my childhood.I was so addicted to these shows that, looking back, I can now discern that everything I know about Christmas I learned from TV. Specifically, I learned from TV three big lessons about Christmas.The first lesson I learned was from. The lesson was this: There is something special about Christmas. Something that transcended the presents, Christmas trees, meals, or decorations. Christmas, to quote from, was "a little bit more" than all these things.If you don't recall the show, here's the basic plot. The Grinch, who lives in the mountains high above Whoville, hates the noise associated with Christmas. So, he dresses up like Santa Claus and ties a horn on the head of his dog Max to make him look like a reindeer. In these disguises they set off for Whoville.Once in Whoville the Grinch proceeds to steal all the Christmas presents, trees, decorations, and food. He packs all this up and heads back up the mountain just as Christmas day is dawning.The Grinch's plan is simple. He figures that if he takes away all the Christmas "stuff" the Whos won't be able to celebrate Christmas.But the Grinch is wrong. In the climactic scene the Who's come out of their homes and, without a single piece of Christmas paraphernalia or presents, begin to sing their Christmas songUpon hearing the song the Grinch has this realization, and I quote:And this realization has such a profound effect upon the Grinch that his heart, previously two sizes too small, grew three sizes that day.So, I learned fromthat Christmas was more than ribbons or tags. More than packages, boxes, or bags. Christmas was MORE.But here was the deeply puzzling thing about. Watch it as many times as you want and it will never be revealed just what Christmas was truly about.is a negative tale. It tells you what Christmas. But it fails, in a quite puzzling way, to tell you what ChristmasSo as child I was left in quite a quandary. Christmas was clearly very special, but it was still a mystery. Luckily, there was more TV to watch! And a part of the mystery of Christmas would be revealed to me in that quirky tale of a mutant reindeer and his friend, the elf, who wanted to be a dentist...After watchingl knew there was something special about Christmas. Butnever says exactly why Christmas is special. I got a clue to answering this question by watching that classic Christmas programThe entire plot of Rudolph centers around misfits. The central misfits are Rudolph and the elf Hermey.Rudolph, obviously, has some kind of genetic mutation. He's got a red nose and that, well, just isn't natural. So he is shunned, mocked, and excluded from the reindeer games.Hermey has a different problem. He's terrible at making toys. And he also doesn't enjoy singing in Santa's elf choir. What Hermey really wants to be is a dentist. But for this curious interest Hermey is, like Rudolph, ostracized and made fun of. They are both, clearly, misfits. This is captured in the mournful little song they singSo Hermey and Rudolph leave Christmas Town and set out on their own. The misfit theme is continued when Hermey, Rudolph, and Yukon Cornelius, after being chased by The Abominable Snowman, find the Island of Misfit Toys. This is an island where rejected, unwanted, and unloved toys find sanctuary. Rudolph, sympathetic to the plight of the Misfit Toys, because Rudolph knows what it's like to be a misfit, promises to take their plight to Santa. This is the lament of the misfit toys:At this point in the show all the misfit themes are coming to a climax. We see misfits seeking community, we see empathy as one misfit identifies with another, and, finally, we see one misfit seeking to act as savior. A misfit to save the misfits. A misfit Messiah. But the theology of Rudolph takes its most radical, surprising, and extreme turn when the personification of evil, The Abominable Snowman, comes back from death in a quirky resurrection event--Bumble's Bounce!--as a peaceable creature who is also in need of loving community. Apparently, this "evil" creature is also a misfit. And the hint is that he's "abominable" because he's been marginalized and without community.So, summarizing all this, I learned from Rudolph this important lesson about Christmas: Something about Christmas means misfits have a place, a community, a home. Or, rephrased, Christmas means that there are no more misfits.But I was still puzzled as a child. FromI learned that Christmas wasthan presents and Christmas trees. And fromI learned that Christmas had something to do with misfits finding a place of love. But in both shows the reason behind it all remained elusive. Why do misfits have a home? And what does being a misfit have to do with Christmas?never says.So I was quite puzzled. But luckily, there was more TV to watch! And I finally got my answers in a speech delivered by a boy who loved to carry a blue blanket...After the hints about Christmas from the Grinch and Rudolph I finally turned to that trusted friend Charlie Brown.InCharlie Brown is struggling to find out why Christmas is so depressing. He seeks advice from this local psychiatrist, Lucy, who gets him to direct the school Christmas play.Well, this doesn't go very well. Eventually, Charlie Brown is rejected as director and asked instead to go buy a Christmas tree for the play.Most of the symbolism infocuses on the tree he picks out. Out of all the shiny, bright artificial trees Charlie Brown picks a real but forlorn little tree that isn't much more than a branch.Charlie Brown takes this tree/branch back to the cast and they laugh at both him and the tree. This ridicule pushes Charlie Brown over the edge and he finally screams, "Would someone please tell me the true meaning of Christmas!!!!!" At which point Linus steps forward.But before we hear Linus's answer, let's reflect on the symbol of the forlorn little Christmas tree. It's a humble little tree, not much to look at. And it's rejected and despised by men. And yet, it is real. All those flashy other trees are dead, cold, and fake. They are empty and hollow. But this fragile little tree is REAL. It's fragile, but real.And all this taught me that whatever Christmas is about, it is about something that is humble, about something fragile and weak, about something that is despised, marginalized, and overlooked. It is life, it's real, but it's so humble that it is easily overlooked and passed over. Further, its humility makes it a stone of stumbling, a scandal, and a reason for offense.So, to recap, these are all the lessons I learned about Christmas from watching TV:But to this point in all this TV viewing no one ever connected the dots among all these things. No one had spoken the word that explained just what all this stuff had to do with Christmas. So I perfectly understood why Charlie Brown screamed "Would someone please tell me the true meaning of Christmas!!!!!"Well, Charile Brown and I finally got our answer. Linus steps forward and explains it all:May there be peace on earth and good will toward all. Merry Christmas. | positive |
Sex appears in my inbox at least once a month. We all occasionally wonder if we’re normal, especially when it comes to the most private parts of our lives. This week, after I received two questions from readers about their masturbation habits (something I’ve quantified before by age, frequency and relationship status), I decided to return to the original data source to see if I had missed anything.
I had — statistics on what makes women and men reach orgasm.
In 2009, the National Survey of Sexual Health and Behavior (NSSHB) asked 1,931 U.S. adults ages 18 to 59 about their most recent sexual experience. The topline findings show that men are more likely to orgasm than women — 91 percent of men said they climaxed during their last sexual encounter, compared with 64 percent of women.
But there seems to be a perception gap, too — at least among men. Eighty-five percent of men said their partners in that recent sexual encounter had reached climax, far higher than the percentage of women who said they orgasmed. That can’t simply be explained away by saying that the men were referring to different sexual partners. Most of these sexual encounters were heterosexual — 92 percent of men and 98 percent of women said their last sexual encounter was with someone of the opposite sex. So it seems like some of those men were wrong when they said their partners had orgasmed — either their egos are causing them to overestimate, or some of those women are faking it.
The survey also asked which sexual acts people had engaged in and whether they had experienced an orgasm during that encounter. It’s worth mentioning at this point that only people who reported a sexual experience in the previous 12 months were included in the survey — presumably because it might get tricky to accurately recall sexual encounters after a while, especially the forgettable ones.
For men, the results don’t vary much — they orgasmed around 90 percent of the time regardless of which sexual acts the encounter included. But for women, there were some big differences — 64 percent of women reported orgasms in encounters that included partnered masturbation (defined in the study as “masturbating with a partner, rubbing genitals together, dry sex, or humping”), while 81 percent orgasmed during encounters in which they received oral sex.
Anal sex appears to be the hands-down winner for both sexes — 100 percent of men and 94 percent of women say they orgasmed during encounters in which they received anal sex. However, these numbers are less reliable than the others cited in the chart because only 25 men and 31 women interviewed said they received anal sex during their last sexual encounter.
That’s not to say that anal sex, or any other sex act, worked on its own. Generally speaking, the more sexual acts that were performed during the last sexual encounter, the higher the probability that respondents would say they had climaxed. By the time they experienced five sexual acts in one session, both men and women said they had orgasmed more than 89 percent of the time. I should bloody well hope so after all that effort.

Given that it has been nearly a year and a half since the release of the PING G Series, it’s reasonable to assume that it’s just about time for the next G. And so here you go; the PING G400 Series has landed on the USGA’s conforming clubs list.
Following the model and naming conventions established with the G30, there will be three versions of the G400. The LST is the low spin model. The SFT offers Straight Flight Technology, which means it’s designed to fight the slice. The non-suffixed G400 is the middle of the road offering for the healthiest percentage of the market.
As usual, the USGA’s photos don’t provide much in the way of detail, but there are some inferences to be drawn from the limited information provided.
G400
From what we can see in the USGA photos, the most notable change in the G400 is the addition of what appears to be a tungsten weight bar. You know the story with tungsten, it’s heavy, which assuming weight savings in other parts of the driver, allows engineers to strategically position big chunks of mass where they believe it will have the most benefit.
In the case of the G400, that appears to be as far back as possible, suggesting the G400 may exceed the MOI of previous G-series drivers.
Also of note, the USGA entry suggests the G series’ Vortec cavity carries on. We don’t think it’s much of a leap to assume that Turbulators will carry on as well. What remains unknown for now is what, if any, measures PING has taken to reduce weight in the face and crown. 9° and 10.5°
Both 9° and 10.5° lofts were approved by the USGA.
G400 LST
What I see in this photo suggests that PING might be taken a more aggressive approach to the G400 LST. While the LS Tech was the lowest spinning of the G/G30 models, we never found it to be particularly low spin with respect to the market as a whole. That may change with the G400 LST.
The photo suggests that PING might be shifting mass a bit more forward in this season’s model. Note the more forward placement of the tungsten bar as well as the more forward location of the tuning port weight. It’s reasonable to believe that the LST will be PING’s lowest CG/CGNA offering.
Also of note, the USGA has approved the G400 LST in both 8.5° and 10°. PING’s lowest loft was 9° in previous G-Series offerings, suggesting that the LST may be better adept than its predecessors at lowering launch angle and cutting spin.
G400 SFT
PING’s Straight Flight Technology is designed to help golfers who need it mitigate a slice. Part of how PING does that is with aggressive, heal weighted geometry and closed face angles. That appears to be true for the G400 SFT.
For the G400 SFT, PING has shifted the Tungsten weight from the center of the sole to the heel side. Adding weight to the heel does two things. First, it shifts the sweet spot towards the heel, which benefits golfers who tend to impact the ball on the heel side of center. Secondly, it increases the closure rate of the club, which makes it easier to square leading into impact, which for many, helps take the right side of the golf course out of play.
The USGA has approved the G400 SFT in 10° and 12.5° models.
More to Come
We’ll be able to share full details about the G400 Series Drivers, along with everything else in the G400 series in the coming weeks. Stay tuned. | positive |
JPL/Nasa
Some spacecraft just can’t sit still. After exploring asteroids Vesta and Ceres, NASA’s Dawn probe may fly off to a third destination.
Dawn was launched in September 2007, orbited Vesta for 14 months in 2011 and 2012, and then flew on to orbit Ceres in March 2015, where it remains today.
It is the first ever spacecraft to visit two different asteroids, a hop-on, hop-off tour made possible thanks to Dawn’s low-thrust ion drive, which uses electricity to spit out xenon ions rather than conventional rocket fuel.

This summer, Dawn’s Ceres mission will officially end. But earlier this week, principal investigator Chris Russell of the University of California at Los Angeles and his team sent a proposal to NASA for an extension.
Secret destination
Spacecraft at the end of their life are normally parked in an out-of-the-way orbit, or crash land on the body they have been studying. That’s the plan for the Rosetta probe, which will touch down on comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko later this year, but that fate won’t be possible for Dawn.
“The spacecraft has not been sterilised, so we aren’t allowed to touch down on the surface of Ceres,” says Russell. Strict planetary protection rules forbid us sending Earth microbes to other worlds. “Instead, we want to go the other way, away from Ceres, to visit yet another target.”
Given the small amount of xenon fuel remaining, the list of potential destinations is probably not too long, but Russell is keeping it a secret for now. “As long as the mission extension has not been approved by NASA, I’m not going to tell you which asteroid we plan to visit,” he says. “I hope a decision won’t take months.” | positive |

Even with its ability to export, the U.S. refining industry is not operating at peak capacity. It is currently running at a rate of 84.7 percent, but the picture for the industry could also change in coming months as the east coast continues to see refineries shut down. Two big closures are pending in the Mid-Atlantic for 2012.
“One reason the U.S. is exporting more gasoline is that ethanol has contributed more fuel supply so refineries have a surplus of gasoline made strictly from crude oil,” Lipow said.
Some of the reduction in gasoline demand could be coming from conservation and more efficient engines.
Interestingly, the U.S. in October exported nearly 10 percent, or 93,000 barrels a day of its ethanol, which was being produced at a near-record level of 906,000 barrels a day. One country receiving some of those imports was Brazil, a leading producer and consumer of ethanol.
Kilduff said the drop in consumer gasoline consumption is a longer term trend but the continued decline is worrisome and reflects a weak economy. “Even (the weekly report) which should have captured the holiday driving season was showing 8.6 million barrels (gasoline consumed), which is low for this time of year,” he said.
Lipow said he does not anticipate gasoline prices will keep dropping, but he said the price at the pump may be more directly influenced by the price of crude oil in the coming year.
“They’ve (refiners) satisfied demand and exported the balance. It’s all going to depend on the crude price because in 2012, you have declining demand and adequate refined supply,” he said.
“Especially in 2012 to watch, you can imagine that the exports of distillates is going to be a political issue. We’re even exporting ethanol fuels,” he said.
Gasoline prices currently average $3.26 a gallon nationally, according to AAA. In July, regular unleaded gasoline hit an average high of $4.114 and was at $3.071 at this time last year.
Diesel fuel hit a high of $4.845 this summer and is now averaging $3.824 — well above the price at this time last year of $3.315 per gallon.

Felony charges have been dropped against 11 of the 14 Anonymous-linked hacktivists who pleaded guilty to waging a cyber-attack on the PayPal website. Meanwhile, the company has been derided on Twitter for launching a new promo campaign tagged #PayPal15.
Known as part of the “PayPal 14,” the 11 originally reached plea deals with federal prosecutors in December 2013, admitting their participation in an online attack that briefly took down the PayPal website nearly four years ago.
After entering guilty pleas to one felony count of conspiracy and one misdemeanor count of damaging a computer, their sentencing was delayed for nearly a year. If the defendants could demonstrate good behavior during that time, they could potentially escape only with probation and restitution payments.
The defendants appeared in federal court on Wednesday, where each person heard whether the court would follow through with the charges or drop them, according to Texas-based journalist Douglas Lucas.
#PayPal14: Ethan Miles says "public must be informed," that he acted out of "hope to live in a world" without war, & more. — Douglas Lucas (@DouglasLucas) October 29, 2014
While each of them will still be responsible for paying $5,600 in restitution, that is drastically lower than the $5.5 million in damages that PayPal claimed occurred when its website was taken offline in December 2010.
Some defendants will be under probation until their restitution has been paid, while others’ probation time has been considered served.
While 11 defendants pleaded guilty to both felony and misdemeanor charges, two others pleaded guilty only to misdemeanors, which carry a potential prison sentence of 90 days. The final member of the PayPal 14 was not eligible for a plea deal, as he stood accused of helping a separate group of people take down other websites around the same time.
The years-long saga began in 2010, when an online operation led by Anonymous executed a series of distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks against PayPal, Visa, MasterCard, and some major banks. The move was described as an act of digital protest against the company for its decision to stop processing payments to WikiLeaks, which was publishing secret documents and leaking news from anonymous sources.
Although more than 1,000 computers were reportedly hit as part of the DDoS attack, federal prosecutors brought charges against just 14 people under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFAA). Originally, prosecutors were looking for sentences of up to 10 years in prison and maximum fines of $250,000.
Stanley Cohen, a defense attorney for one of the accused, said last year that the terms of the plea deal were reached “based upon strength, not weakness; based upon principle, not acquiescence.”
“It did not involve cooperation and did not involve any of the defendants renouncing their conduct. They all stood up and said, ‘We did what you said we did...We believe it was an appropriate act from us and we’re willing to pay the price.’”
With the felony charges now dropped and restitution payments considerably lower, the conclusion raises the possibility that the US government may be softening its stance against so-called hacktivism and digital forms of civil disobedience.
Following the suicide of noted internet activist Aaron Swartz in January 2013, Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-Calif.) proposed making changes to the broad requirements of the CFAA. Swartz was being prosecuted for hacking into the Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s JSTOR archive and stealing academic journals.
#PayPal15?!
News of the hacktivists having their charges dropped sparked an outpouring of joy among supporters on social media, who routinely defended them using the hashtag #PayPal14.
However, those supporters soon noticed that PayPal had started its own hashtag, #PayPal15, in order to celebrate its 15th anniversary.
A PayPal tweet promoting the new hashtag the same day that the PayPal 14 appeared in court triggered a wave of outrage online, with both backers of the group and random people expressing their anger, surprise, or amusement at the coincidence. Some called it a “marketing fail,” while Anonymous claimed the move was in order to “censor” the #PayPal14 moniker and keep it from trending.

Yeah @small_affair it looks like @PayPal tried to commit noise censorship to drown out #PayPal14 but failed miserably. — Anonymous (@YourAnonCentral) October 29, 2014
As a result, some users hijacked PayPal’s hashtag and used it to disparage the company and its marketing efforts, as well as Pierre Omidyar, whose eBay now owns the firm.
lol, #paypal15 used by @paypal@pierre to cover up not standing up for freedomfighters #paypal14 is the marketingmistake of the year. — Support paypal14 (@kaatje36) October 29, 2014
It remained unclear if the naming convention was intentional, as PayPal first used the hashtag on October 16. | positive |
With a conservative annual value over $40 billion, tuna fisheries represent a significant component of the global economy. Improved management of these fisheries and conservation of tuna stocks are critical to sustaining the health and well-being of marine ecosystems, as well as the industries and coastal peoples who rely on the life in these waters for income and food.
Fishery managers should enact policies that at a minimum restore depleted stocks to healthy levels, which should include setting science-based catch limits and developing systems of pre-agreed management actions that would be triggered when stocks fall below certain levels.
The reality is that fisheries management decisions continue to be based predominantly on the short-term economic bottom line—the amount of value gained or lost by fishing on any given day. That must change.
Stocks of Pacific bluefin, southern bluefin, and Atlantic bluefin, Atlantic and Pacific bigeye, and Indian Ocean yellowfin are all currently overfished. 7 That means they have been fished down to a population size that no longer supports the maximum level of sustainable fishing and threatens their role in marine ecosystems. As a result, these stocks deliver less overall value to global tuna fisheries than they could if they were managed differently. As with all fisheries, maximizing the value of a species requires management that recognizes the productivity of healthy populations and minimizes the risk that the fishery will end up in an overfished state. Given the increasing number of tuna fisheries classified as overfished, improved management of these populations would likely, in time, improve catch rates and financial returns.
When looking at individual species, skipjack tuna—most often found in cans—generates the highest estimated amount of revenue because of the volume caught each year. When analyzing individual fish, the three bluefin species—Pacific, southern, and Atlantic—are by far the most highly prized; a single bluefin typically fetches more than a ton of skipjack. Several populations of the most commercially important tunas, particularly the bluefin species, have been fished to levels that scientists and managers consider too low. 6 The values reported here help make a convincing economic case for improving the management of the world’s tuna fisheries.
The methodology used to calculate these global estimates allows for values to be broken down by region, species, and fishing gear. For example, the Pacific Ocean is home to the world’s largest tuna fishing grounds, making this region the largest contributor to total global sales values. According to the analysis, the end value of Pacific tuna when including the full canned tuna product price surpassed $22.7 billion in 2014.
While the overall numbers do not reflect the total worth of the seven species, they provide a useful estimate of the contribution made by commercial tuna fisheries to the global economy. A total value of tuna, incorporating sport fishing and in-the-water ecosystem benefits of living tunas, among other things, would be much higher. Therefore, these numbers should be considered conservative.
In 2014, the volume of landed tuna rose to 4.99 million metric tons with an estimated dock value of $9.8 billion. The estimated end value remained similar to that in 2012 due to falling fish prices, and was $32.9 billion, or $42.2 billion when including the full canned product price.
The findings are based on information gathered on tuna fisheries and markets for 2012 and 2014. 4 Based on the analysis of available data, commercial fishing vessels in 2012 landed about 4.6 million metric tons of tuna worldwide. The estimated dock value, or amount paid to fishermen, was US$12.2 billion.* The estimated end value of this tuna—the total amount paid by the final consumer—was at least $33.3 billion. The estimate rose significantly when the entire price of a can of tuna, beyond the value of the fish alone, was used. In that case, the end value in 2012 was estimated to be $41.6 billion. 5
This report, in which The Pew Charitable Trusts presents the first effort to estimate the full global value of the primary commercial fisheries targeting these seven tuna species and the value of the resulting products, summarizes and discusses the findings of a much more detailed analysis that Pew commissioned from Poseidon Aquatic Resource Management Ltd., an independent fisheries and aquaculture consultancy based in the United Kingdom. 3 Estimating the economic contribution of these fisheries informs and highlights the urgency of ensuring that the systems that govern the global ocean are robust and effective. Action is needed to guarantee a healthy and stable future for these species, as well as for the communities and businesses that depend on them.
Ecologically, tuna are a vital part of marine systems. Their importance in food webs as predators and prey is difficult to monetize; however, these iconic species are known to play a fundamental role in open ocean ecosystems. 2 That makes maintaining their health critically important to human communities that rely on them for food and economic well-being, particularly at a time of global ocean change.
Taken together, the seven most commercially important tuna species are among the most economically valuable fishes on the planet. Collectively, skipjack, albacore, bigeye, yellowfin, Atlantic bluefin, Pacific bluefin, and southern bluefin tuna 1 inhabit all of the tropical and temperate waters of the Earth’s oceans—and support artisanal and industrial fishing wherever they exist. Canned and other shelf-stable tuna products provide plentiful and inexpensive protein to markets around the world, while smaller amounts of high-quality tuna steaks and sashimi make their way to affluent markets in Asia, Europe, and North America.

The tunas are some of the world’s fastest fishes, with sleek bodies designed to achieve maximum speeds. The species referred to in this report migrate thousands of miles over their lifetimes, among oceans, national waters, and fisheries management regimes.
Despite some similarities, such as the ability of most tunas to regulate their body temperatures (unlike most other fishes), there are significant biological differences among these species. Tuna can range in size from just a few kilograms up to 680 kg (nearly 1,500 pounds), or roughly the size of a full-grown polar bear. Some tuna species live only a few years, while others can survive for decades.
All tunas are open ocean predators that eat fish, squid, and crustaceans. While they occupy a top position in the food web, juvenile tunas are also important to larger predators such as sharks, whales, and even other tunas. Coastal communities around the world have relied on tuna for centuries, and the influence of these species can be found in music, art, and literature. Large tunas have been a visible part of the culture and economies of Mediterranean and Japanese societies for much of recorded history. Fishermen have been catching tuna for thousands of years, originally for food and more recently for trade.
Tuna fishing nations
Based on data reported to the world’s regional fisheries management bodies, the top tuna-fishing nation is Indonesia, with total landings in 2014 of more than 620,000 metric tons. Indonesia’s vessels fish mainly in the eastern Indian and western Pacific oceans, in contrast to several other major fishing nations that support large global fleets.
Most of these nations have diverse fleets, with boats that fish using all gear types and target all species. Six of the top 10—Japan; Taiwan, Province of China; the United States; Korea; Spain; and France—have large global fleets that can fish far from their home waters. The Asian and European fleets, in particular, fish all major ocean basins and land tuna at ports around the world.
The remaining top nations have very large local or regional fleets that fish in the highly productive eastern tropical Pacific (Ecuador) or western and central tropical Pacific (the Philippines and Papua New Guinea).
Methodology
To estimate the total global value of commercial tuna fisheries, information was collected on how much tuna is landed each year, what markets it enters, and what the ultimate consumer pays. These data distinguished between the total value of recently landed tuna to the fishermen who caught them and the total retail value after processing, shipping, and marketing. The steps taken to determine these figures are described below. A more detailed methodology is included in the technical documents produced for this analysis, available for download at pewtrusts.org/tunavalue.
Landings
To determine the volume of tuna landed in 2012 and 2014, data were collected from the five major tuna regional fisheries management organizations (RFMOs)8 to build a single landings database. These data were then sorted by country, species, gear type, and ocean of origin to allow for multiple analyses. To check for general robustness of the joint database, the totals were compared to the numbers reported by members of the U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), a body that includes all marine fishing nations. The totals presented here are close to those reported to FAO.9
Market flow
Different tuna products command different prices, so the percentages of the landed volume destined for various final products had to be determined. This required in-depth analyses of individual fisheries for each ocean basin or for smaller regions within basins to consider where catch of different species made by different fishing gear is likely to end up being sold and in what product form. Expert interviews, published literature, personal interactions with managers at fish processing facilities, and personal experience informed market flow estimates for species and gears in each ocean region. Some paths to markets proved relatively easy to determine. For example, nearly all bigeye, yellowfin, and skipjack caught by purse seine vessels are destined for canneries, while bluefin caught by this gear are typically sent to ranches. Albacore caught with longlines generally head to canneries, while yellowfin and bigeye caught this way are often used for fresh or frozen sashimi. Other pathways were more difficult to determine—for example, how much skipjack caught by pole and line ends up in local markets as opposed to canneries and how much longline-caught bigeye is frozen for sashimi versus kept fresh. This report used the above sources to estimate the market flow for all tuna landed in 2012 and 2014, as well as to calculate the dock and end values.10
Dock and end value
Converting the volumes and market flows into final prices (either at the dock or at the point of final sale) required an estimated wholesale price paid to fishermen and retail price paid by the consumer. To estimate the average price paid to fishermen, several government agencies and trade organizations that operate in the primary tuna ports were surveyed.11 Given the global nature of tuna fisheries and the technological capabilities of tuna vessels, such as refrigeration, prices paid to fishermen are fairly consistent across ports for products of equal quality.12 Data sources included Japanese customs; Thai customs; the Maldives government; the Indonesian Ministry of Fisheries; and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Fisheries Service, the agency responsible for stewardship of U.S. marine resources.
A similar effort helped to estimate the average price paid by the ultimate consumer. Canned tuna prices proved relatively easy to obtain, because they are readily available in supermarkets around the world. Market surveys in the U.S. and in member states of the European Union provided an average canned price for the primary tunas in this market stream. Canned tuna is a global commodity. Therefore, average prices (unless altered by supermarkets during promotions) are consistent from market to market for products of equal quality.13 The end value of canned tuna was calculated using two average prices for each species: first, a price obtained by reducing the average shelf price by 32 percent to account for only the drained tuna (the reduction is equivalent to the average weight of the other materials that make up a can of tuna, such as water or oil, tin, etc.); and, second, the full shelf price determined by averaging the prices collected during market surveys. The first method is more conservative, while the second may be more illustrative.
Fresh and frozen sashimi prices were determined via market surveys and using recorded price data at several wholesale and retail markets in Japan. Japan accounts for 75 to 80 percent of the global sashimi market,14 and there is some evidence that EU wholesale prices are approximately equal to wholesale prices in Japan, even for lower-grade tuna.15 EU prices are based on contracts set near the global average price; Japanese prices, on the other hand, are the result of auctions and fluctuate more widely around the average. For these reasons, this research considered the more complete data set obtained from Japanese fish auctions to be representative of the prices paid elsewhere and used those data for all sashimi-grade tuna. Limited data available for retail sashimi prices in Japanese supermarkets revealed that average prices were approximately 1.75 times higher than the wholesale fish prices. Therefore, the wholesale fish prices were used to calculate final retail prices (by application of a multiplication factor of 1.75) in cases where retail price data were not available. The final sashimi price estimate is almost certainly conservative, as businesses in the food service sector are likely to charge more than those in retail supermarkets.
Fish meal and pet food prices for byproducts of fish canning were obtained from feed mill associations, while prices for tuna caught and sold domestically were based on data for Indonesia, the Maldives, and Sri Lanka (the countries with the largest estimated domestic sales of tuna not destined for canning or sashimi markets).
Once wholesale prices paid to fishermen and retail prices paid by the consumer were estimated, dock values and end values were calculated by multiplying landings by market flow by price. These values were calculated for 2012 and 2014.
The value of tuna
Just as the biology of tuna varies by species, so does the value. Some tuna species command the same price for a single fish that other species command for a few tons. Even the fishing method can determine the price at market.
By species
Of the seven commercially important tuna species, at least four—skipjack, yellowfin, bigeye, and albacore—can be found in cans on supermarket shelves in virtually every region of the world.
Small-bodied but extremely abundant, the skipjack is by far the most commonly caught tuna in total numbers and by weight. In 2012 and 2014, skipjack accounted for more than half of the total volume of tuna landed globally. Along with these huge volumes, however, comes a relatively low price per metric ton, compared with the larger tuna species. As a result, skipjack’s share of the total dock value is smaller than its share of the total catch; the reverse is true for the other species.
Yellowfin are sold for canning and as high-value sashimi or tuna steaks. Bigeye and all three of the bluefin species command higher prices per metric ton in whole or semiprocessed form than yellowfin. However, the sheer volume of yellowfin—and its popularity in high-priced cans—made the combined value of yellowfin fisheries higher than fisheries targeting all other tunas in 2012 and a close second to skipjack in 2014. Albacore tuna, labeled as white tuna when canned in North America, is used almost exclusively as a slightly higher-priced alternative to canned skipjack, but prices do not approach those for canned yellowfin.
Worldwide, tuna canneries processed 3.5 million metric tons of tuna in 2012. That translates into about 1.4 million metric tons of canned and other shelf-stable product. This tuna was worth nearly $18 billion at the point of final sale. The total value, including the cost of the cans and their contents, was almost $26 billion.16 That catch produced another 1.4 million metric tons of byproduct used primarily in fish meal and pet food and estimated to be worth another $260 million.
In 2014, the total value of this processed tuna approached $30 billion. With canned tuna, volume is key. The price per metric ton may be modest, but the total tonnage is enormous. In 2012, more than 75 percent of all landed tuna went to canneries for processing. Two years later, 79 percent of landed tuna was destined for canneries. Canned tuna continues to be a staple protein around the world.
The bluefin species are caught in smaller numbers and are often sold as individual fish. While the three bluefin species represent a very small portion of the total catch, they are by far the most valuable per metric ton. In 2012, the end value of both Atlantic and Pacific bluefin approached $1 billion for each species on catches of only about 12,000 and 15,000 metric tons, respectively.
With about 40,000 metric tons of all bluefin species caught per year—less than 1 percent of total tuna landings by weight—these fish generate an estimated $610 million to $660 million for fishermen and $2 billion to $2.5 billion in the global marketplace.
Media reports of million-dollar bluefin tuna sales17 reflect prices paid in traditional auctions in countries such as Japan more than true market value, but the price of bluefin sashimi is still extraordinarily high. A metric ton of bluefin tuna costs $50,000 to $70,000, on average. The Atlantic bluefin is the highest-priced of all tuna species, with the cost per metric ton reaching $69,000 in 2012. Pacific bluefin is the next highest, at $63,000 per metric ton, followed by southern bluefin at $48,000.18
Global Tuna Landings and Values by Species Skipjack has the most total value, but the bluefin species are far more valuable per metric ton. Click the illustration to expand.
Demand for bluefin sashimi continues to grow. Markets around the world have developed an increasing appetite for this cuisine or have seen increases in the disposable income required to purchase it in recent decades. All three bluefin species are overfished, the Pacific19 and southern20 species significantly so. Increasing demand, when coupled with a lack of political will to take strong management actions, continues to push stock sizes down.
If managers continue to promote short-term economic gains in bluefin fisheries instead of long-term economic security, stocks could be depleted to levels incapable of supporting future commercial fisheries. However, with proper management, fisheries for these three species could potentially grow.
Some stocks of yellowfin and bigeye are now also overfished, likely reflecting a lack of political recognition that they should be managed in ways that take into account their relatively high value.
By fishing gear
The large majority of tuna landed worldwide is taken by purse seine fishing vessels, which use very large nets to encircle entire schools of fish. Purse seiners target primarily skipjack and yellowfin, and most tuna caught this way is destined for canneries. Because of the large volumes of these two species captured by purse seine, this gear type accounts for more revenue than any other.
Additionally, low volumes of extremely valuable bluefin are caught by purse seine vessels and used in “ranching.” In that process, tuna, mostly juveniles, are transferred alive to cages in the ocean and left to grow for up to two years, increasing their size and value.
In 2012 and 2014, a relatively small number of large purse seine vessels caught approximately two-thirds of all landed tuna. That accounted for about half of the dock value and end value of all tuna fisheries.
Global Tuna Landings and Values by Gear Type Most skipjack and yellowfin are landed by purse seine; longliners catch much of the bigeye. Click the illustration to expand.
Yellowfin, bigeye, and bluefin caught by longlines and handlines for the sashimi markets command higher prices than tuna for canning that is caught by purse seine vessels. Furthermore, longline-caught albacore, almost all of which is destined for cans and pouches, commands a slightly higher price than skipjack. As a result of these price differences, the approximately 10,00021 longline vessels, which accounted for just 13 percent of the catch, were responsible for 30 percent of the dock value and 27 percent of the end value of all tuna fisheries in 2012. The numbers were similar in 2014. The slightly smaller share of end value relative to dock value is likely the result of retail competition from handline-caught tuna of the same species.
Other fishing gears, including pole and line, gillnet, and troll, account for small percentages of landings and value of tuna fisheries.
By region
The Pacific Ocean supports the world’s largest tuna fisheries. Nearly three-quarters of tuna landings in 2012 and 2014 came from these waters, and sales of tuna from the Pacific made up two-thirds of the global dock value and end value in both years.
Commercially landed Pacific tuna generated dock values of more than $6.5 billion in 2012 and $5 billion in 2014. The end value of Pacific tuna surpassed $17 billion in both years. When accounting for the full price of canned tuna, these values were more than $22 billion (in nominal dollars) in both years.
Indian Ocean tuna fisheries run a distant second, followed by the Atlantic and Southern oceans. The Southern Ocean’s small piece of the global pie is a result of fisheries targeting only southern bluefin. Still, the end value of Southern Ocean tuna is significant (about $500 million).
How markets affect value
There are a few notable differences between the landings and revenue of tuna fisheries in 2012 and 2014. Worldwide landings were 8 percent higher in 2014, but the end value was about the same. More significantly, after adjusting for inflation, dock value dropped by more than 21 percent (in 2012 dollars).22 There are a few reasons these numbers did not change together.
Increased landings can be attributed primarily to higher purse seine landings of skipjack, but the resulting increase in the end value of canned tuna was offset by a decline in end value of other tuna species. Specifically, the fresh and frozen sashimi markets declined in value during the two years studied. However, this drop seems to be a result largely of a change in the exchange rate between the Japanese yen and the U.S. dollar. Japan remains the top importer of fresh and frozen tuna for the sashimi market, so that business is typically conducted in yen. An analysis of sashimi prices from top Japanese markets (in yen rather than dollars) demonstrates consistency in retail prices from 2012 to 2014,23 but conversion to dollars for purposes of this analysis depressed the value. More interestingly, dock value (in 2012 dollars) fell $2.7 billion between 2012 and 2014, despite an increase of nearly 400,000 metric tons of tuna landings. Fishermen caught more tuna but were paid almost 22 percent less for it. Any losses that resulted from unfavorable currency exchange, changes in consumer preferences, or other market shifts were passed along to fishermen. The total market did not shrink; the end value varied only slightly, but the dock value decreased significantly.
Discussion and implications
This first global estimate of the value of tuna fisheries confirms that they are extremely valuable. They support enormous industries in many nations and generate more than $40 billion a year for the global economy. From the extremely high volume, commoditized canned tuna to the low volume, highly desired, top-shelf bluefin sashimi, commercially targeted tunas produce significant revenue for fishermen and coastal communities. These tunas contribute to the global seafood economy all the way to the supermarket or restaurant where they are ultimately sold. Tuna fisheries are a source of low-cost protein for much of the world and provide employment in areas where fishing and processing are concentrated. However, it appears that long-term sustainability is all too often traded for short-term political or economic gains. In an industry worth $40 billion a year, long-term viability should not be risked for relatively small, short-term gains.
RFMOs, the multinational governing bodies charged with overseeing tuna fisheries, have been slow to adopt critical management tools such as catch limits and recovery plans. Lack of political will to sustainably manage tuna fisheries and recover depleted tuna stocks puts the benefits of robust tuna fisheries at risk. For example, the tuna RFMO in the Atlantic Ocean only recently took steps to reverse population declines in Atlantic bluefin tuna populations. That action came only after the species’ population declined significantly and an international trade ban was threatened.24
Many managers do not appear to have learned from this experience, and RFMOs in the Pacific have refused to take adequate steps on at least two stocks—Pacific bluefin and Pacific bigeye—despite ample evidence that both are significantly depleted and continue to experience overfishing. Given that the Pacific is the source of more than half of the landings and revenue of global tuna fisheries, precautionary management must be a top priority for this region.
The use of harvest strategies, or pre-agreed frameworks for making fisheries management decisions (including setting quotas), would help move beyond the political gridlock and protect the value of the fishery. These strategies may be tailored to individual settings or needs, but all such efforts include the same elements: a monitoring program, a stock assessment methodology, reference points (or other fishery indicators), and harvest control rules. Moving from traditional fisheries management, in which politics and the requirement for consensus-based decision-making often delay management action, to a system where the scientific advice more directly influences management decisions would be a good first step toward better fishery management. If harvest strategies are fully implemented, the aggregate value of tuna could grow, as depleted species return to population sizes capable of producing higher landings.
Finally, as mentioned, this report is intended to provide only a snapshot of the value of commercial tuna fisheries for the seven most economically important tuna species. The true worth of these species and of the entire tuna family are much higher. Value associated with sport fisheries, artisanal targeting of other tunas, and in-the-water benefits of living tunas (to ecosystem functioning and carbon cycling, for example) are difficult to measure but add significantly to the values presented here. International and domestic policies that promote overfishing and lead to depletion of tuna stocks not only risk the high values of the fisheries examined in this report but also the broader value of healthy, robust tuna stocks.
Conclusion
This report represents the first attempt to develop a rigorous estimate of the global value of tuna fisheries. Because this analysis is based solely on available commercial data, the value of the world’s tuna populations likely far exceeds the $42.2 billion estimated here. Despite being a conservative estimate, the report’s findings—that tuna fisheries contribute tens of billions of dollars to the global economy—indicate the critical importance of ensuring that all commercially fished tuna species are managed sustainably.
To conserve, and build on, the wealth that tuna fisheries generate, steps are needed to improve the precautionary management of tuna populations globally. Managers should:
Restore depleted tuna stocks to healthy levels, at a minimum.
Determine and set science-based catch limits that prevent stocks from dropping below healthy levels to ensure an adequate buffer to account for uncertainties.
Develop and implement a system of pre-agreed management actions that would be triggered when stock sizes drop below predetermined healthy levels; these actions should be designed to reverse trends toward excessive stock depletion.
With these three actions, fisheries managers can work to remove the short-term politics from decision-making. Doing that would secure strong financial returns in tuna fisheries while ensuring the health of marine ecosystems. | positive |

Julian Assange: Wikileaks founder fears he could be arrested
The Telegraph ^ | 8-2-10 | Amy Willis
Posted on by atomic conspiracy
The 39 year-old told journalists at the Frontline Club last night that US government insiders had informed him about discussions to charge him as a co-conspirator to espionage.
The discussions were later dropped.
Mr Assange says despite this he still fears he is at risk of being forcefully detained by the US government as a material witness in the prosecution of US intelligence analyst Bradley Manning.
Mr Manning, 22, was arrested in Baghdad in May and charged earlier this month with multiple counts of mishandling and leaking classified data, after a computer hacker turned him in.
In the United States an authority has the right to detain and hold a material witness for an indefinite period to ensure they give their testimony in a criminal investigation.
The Wikileaks founder said: "Today the White House put out a private briefing to reporters about Wikileaks and me and it quoted a section from an interview with me in Der Spiegel saying that I enjoy crushing --------.
"Somehow the White House finds that offensive.
"In terms of returning to the United States I don't know. Our sources advise from inside the US government that there were thoughts of whether I could be charged as a co-conspirator to espionage, which is serious.
"That doesn't seem to be the thinking within the United States any more however there is the other possibility of being detained as a material witness and being kept either in confinement or not being allowed to leave the country until the Manning case is concluded."
He also claimed that Bradley Manning is being held in a secluded facility in Kuwait which he says is like "a second Guantanamo Bay". He also accused the US government of doing this to "hide" Mr Manning from effective civil representation.

Co-conspiracy for espionage sounds like a good charge, open and shut in fact, but that would require an administration that is more interested in national security than they are in the good will of the media-industrial complex that sponsors and supports Assange. Wikipedia article on wikileaks Among the more interesting items: -Wikileaks receives extensive legal support from mainstream media organizations such as AP, the LA Times, and the National Newspaper Publishers Association. -Wikileaks has paid for 3 high-priced lawyers to defend accused traitor Bradley Mannin. -Unsavory characters like the Russian mafia, and the governments of China, Zimbabwe, and Myanmar also have good reason to hate Assange. So far, their efforts to take him down have met with little success, probably for fear of offending the west.
With the current uproar over Assange's attacks on western security having diluted the public's attention and possibly eroded his western protection, the Russians, Chinese or others might decide this is a good time to take much more decisive measures.

PFC Manning engaged in espionage in the course of his employment in the U.S. military. He is subject to UCMJ. Their won't be civil representation. There will be criminal representation. The evidence appears damning enough for at least life in prison. A firing squad would be more appropriate given the number of others who may be killed after having their names publicized as assisting our efforts against the Taliban. Assange should be picked up by Interpol and forwarded to the U.S. force his role in making the materials from Manning widely publicized. He had the option not to publish and decided it was still a good idea. There is as much blood on his has as Manning's.

We do the same to show you why it's all poppycock. By Elisabeth Dellinger, 10/03/2014 Share These three front-row people are central bankers. They are apparently saying funny things. We wish we could hear. And hang out with Haruhiko Kuroda. Photo by Andrew Harrer/Bloomberg via Getty Images. So unemployment is now under 6%, finally falling into the Fed's "longer run" forecast range. But labor force participation, involuntary part-time workers and other less mainstream stats are still in the doldrums, which some say means there is a lot of slack in the labor market, which is jargon for "people aren't working or earning as much as they could/should be." Apparently this-and a similar situation in the UK-puts Fed head Janet Yellen and BoE chief Mark Carney in a pickle, because their rate hike decisions are apparently not cut and dry. And apparently this means we all need to parse every single one of their statements for clues into what they'll do, because if they get it wrong the expansion could go poof and we will all need to brace for impact. I'm going to ignore that second part because my wonderful colleagues covered it earlier today here, and concentrate on the first part. Namely, the notion that we can divine future policy from central bankers' words. If you have a magic decoder ring and fully functional crystal ball, perhaps you can, but for us nonmagical folk, it's an impossible task, and we're all best off not trying-and not putting much weight on analyses that claim they've cracked the code. The punditry always goes into overdrive trying to interpret the opaque vagaries in the FOMC's policy statements and Fed members' public comments, but there isn't much point. Forward guidance doesn't tell you what the Fed will do. It just tells you what the Fed wants you to think it will do. As the Bernanke Fed's lengthy debate over a single adverb in their September 16, 2008 policy statement shows, they choose words based on how they'll make people feel. They aren't statements of intent or promises to act. They're just words to make us all feel safe and sound knowing Fed people are paying attention and know they need to do things at some point (not that this should inspire any confidence at all-the Fed is often wrong). The "substance, sizzle, or marketing," as Bernanke put it in September 2008, are what matter. It's much the same for the BoE, ECB and other central banks. Don't believe me? Consider how Yellen's messaging has evolved since she took the helm in March. In that meeting, she made a splash by changing the Fed's guidance on the fed-funds rate. Since 2012, the FOMC's statement said the rate would stay in its 0-0.25% range "well past the time that the unemployment rate declines below 6-1/2 percent." But by the March meeting, unemployment was down to 6.7%, and according to the meeting minutes, "all members judged that, as the unemployment rate was likely to fall below 6 ½ percent before long, it was appropriate to replace the existing quantitative thresholds at the meeting. Almost all members judged that the new language should be qualitative in nature," and that's what they delivered. The new guidance read: "The Committee continues to anticipate, based on its assessment of these factors, that it will likely be appropriate to maintain the current target range for the federal funds rate for a considerable time after the asset purchase program ends..." (I truncated the inflation-related mumbo jumbo to make your life easier.) Now, let's look at how Yellen has told us to interpret that clause-particularly the words "considerable time" over the past few months. March 19: So, the language that we use in the statement is "considerable" period. So, I-you know, this is the kind of term-it's hard to define. But, you know, it probably means something on the order of around six months or that type of thing. But, you know, it depends. June 18: So what I want to say, the guidance that I want to give you, is that there is no mechanical formula whatsoever for what a "considerable time" means. The answer as to what it means is, it depends. It depends on how the economy progresses. September 17: I do not think we have any mechanical interpretation that applies to this. It, of course, gives an impression about what we think will be appropriate, but there is no mechanical interpretation. ... And it is important for markets to understand that there is uncertainty, and this statement is not some sort of firm promise about a particular amount of time. So to recap, it went from six months-ish to no mechanical formula to whatever. Now, this is actually sort of a good thing. Central bankers have historically tried to be as vague as possible! Alan Greenspan made it an art form, always speaking in riddles that even Yoda would envy. He once quipped, "Since I have become a central banker, I have learned to mumble with great incoherence ... If I seem unduly clear to you, you must have misunderstood what I said." Early on, Yellen made the classic boo-boo of being too specific, running the risk of backing the Fed into a corner. She wised up and got vague. No more corner. If you needed proof the Fed doesn't want you to take its words too literally, there it is. The award for ultimate flip-floppy guidance, though, goes to Carney. He is living, breathing, walking, talking proof central bank guidance isn't carved in stone on Mt. Sinai. On August 7, 2013, shortly after he took over as BoE Governor, Carney issued the bank's first-ever forward guidance, which said: "The MPC intends not to raise Bank Rate from its current level of 0.5% at least until the Labour Force Survey headline measure of the unemployment rate has fallen to a threshold of 7%." BoE forecasts pegged that milestone sometime in late 2016. But by February 12, it was nearly there, so the threshold was scrapped in favor of some noncommittal fuzzy rambling. And a lot of waffling ensued. February 12: Look this-we're in a situation where there is notable spare capacity in the economy. We've put figures around that. We've built up that assessment of spare capacity through the labour market where we think it principally lies. We'll all watch the evolution of that, and we'll be commenting on that. We think that we can draw down that spare capacity further before there's any need to adjust Bank Rate, and I would say that medium term forces, the types of forces that are weighing on the longer term equilibrium, medium term equilibrium level of interest rates are unlikely to dissipate any time soon. May 14: The exact timing of the first adjustment of Bank Rate will be a product of the evolution of the economy. Today's not the day. There's additional slack that-wasteful space capacity that can be used up. I've outlined-we've outlined-I've outlined in my remarks, we've outlined in the Report, a series of things that need to happen to sustainably use up that slack. As we progress, we will get to a welcome moment where the economy is headed far enough back towards normal that there will be the first adjustment in Bank Rate. But that remains to be seen. It's a decision for another day. June 12: There's already great speculation about the exact timing of the first rate hike and this decision is becoming more balanced. It could happen sooner than markets currently expect. (ED: At the time, markets expected the hike in May 2015.) June 24: As the economy progresses, the time to normalise interest rates is edging closer, it's coming closer. July 16, reflecting on the June 24 speech: We were concerned that markets were not reacting to a fairly long run of data that had been as expected, if not a little better, and there had not been a change in prediction for the first rise in interest rates. The only guidance that the new Monetary Policy Committee is now giving is around the expected medium-term path of interest rates, not the timing of the rate rise. August 17: We have to have the confidence that prospective real wages are going to be growing sustainably [before we raise rates]. We don't have to wait for the fact of that turn to raise them. September 9: Our latest forecasts show that, if interest rates were to follow the path expected by markets-that is, beginning to increase by the spring and thereafter rising very gradually-inflation would settle at around 2% by the end of the forecast and a further 1.2 million jobs would have been created. ... In other words, we would achieve our mandate. September 25: With many of the conditions for the economy to normalise now met, the point at which interest rates also begin to normalise is getting closer. So to translate: First, he said the hike would be a long way off, then sometime this year, then "just kidding, and we aren't going to give you any more hints," then sometime next year, now sometime nebulously soon. Flip, flop, wiffle, waffle. Markets aren't being complacent, sir. They've just learned not to take you at your word. (They may also have remembered history, which doesn't show rates hikes are automatically negative for markets, an article for a different day.) Look, there is zero way anyone can know when rates will rise in the UK, US or anywhere else. Rate decisions are made by committee. They depend on a few human beings' feelings, ideologies and interpretations of a smorgasbord of economic data. We aren't in their heads-and frankly I wouldn't want to be-so we can't know what they're thinking or how they'll react to whatever economic data come out. All we can do is wait and judge the appropriateness of their next moves whenever they happen. Stock Market Outlook Like what you read? Interested in market analysis for your portfolio?

Despite many advances in treating the COVID-19 virus there remains no specific cure for patients with infection. This is especially the case with hospitalised patients who end up in the ICU requiring mechanical ventilation support. Key members of UNESCO’s International Society on Aging and Disease (ISOAD) including Georgina Ellison-Hughes, Professor of Regenerative Muscle Physiology at King’s, have found that Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) are effective at modulating multiple mechanisms and can restore the immune system homeostasis in COVID-19 patients. MSCs have unique and powerful immunomodulatory characteristics, which make them an excellent candidate cell type for treating COVID-19. In February 2020 the international team showed that injection of MSCs into seven COVID19-pneumonia patients improved symptoms and recovery time, compared to three placebo-treated patients. Now the researchers have advanced these findings showing that MSCs are effective at modulating multiple mechanisms and can restore the immune system homeostasis in COVID-19 patients. In their latest study, published today by Cell Research, the team completed a randomized, single-blind, placebo-controlled Phase II clinical trial of infusion of MSCs. The results of the clinical study demonstrated a significant efficacy of the MSC treatment, whereby MSC infusion rapidly and significantly improved the prognosis of severe and critically ill patients, and alleviated symptoms. Follow-up chest imaging showed a greater improvement in patients with severe or critical disease in the MSC treatment group compared with the placebo group. Significantly, the treatment was also associated with a shorter hospital stay (11 days vs. 15 days). These findings advance MSC transplantation as a safe and effective therapeutic for treating those critically ill patients with COVID-19. Our findings show that MSC therapy has multiple modes of action in how it can effectively treat COVID-19." – Professor Georgina Ellison-Hughes MSC treatment improved characteristic markers of the disease with treated patients showing decreased levels of C reactive protein, and pro-inflammatory factors and cytokines. The MSC treatment resulted in a prolonged persistence of COVID-19 antibodies. MSC infusion also reduced the incidence of thrombosis shown by a decrease in plasma neutrophil extracellular traps or “NETs”. Overall, the patients in the MSC treatment group had good tolerance and were discharged from hospital without any adverse reactions. The death rate was zero in the MSC group and 6.9 percent in the placebo group. In line with previous clinical studies, the findings indicate MSCs as a safe therapeutic approach for use in humans and effective in treating COVID-19. Read the full paper Treatment Improves Outcome of COVID-19 Patients via Multiple Immunomodulatory Mechanisms in Cell Research. The international team involved in this study, led by Professor Robert Zhao, included key members of the International Society on Aging and Disease (ISOAD) including experts from China, the United States, United Kingdom, France, Italy, Russia, Spain, Israel, South Korea, and other countries, involving more than 20 biomedical laboratories and research organizations.

FRANCIS DEAN / Corbis Thomas Blachman, creator of the new Danish TV show Blachman, during an X-Factor press conference on March 12, 2012
A woman stands naked in a room under a harsh spotlight. She’s not allowed to speak, but must stand quietly while two men sit on the couch and assess her physical attributes as a camera zooms in and out on the body parts they are discussing. Sounds like a nightmare, but it’s actually a show on Danish television.
The show, Blachman, was named after its creator, Thomas Blachman, who is the Danish version of Simon Cowell, according to the Telegraph, as well as an award-winning jazz musician and judge on the local edition of The X Factor. Blachman purportedly created the show to get “men discussing the aesthetics of a female body without allowing the conversation to become pornographic or politically correct.” To foster such conversation, a series of women are invited on air to strip and be judged by Blachman and a male guest. The women featured on the program are of all shapes, ages and sizes, ranging from a 40-something teacher to an 85-year-old.
(MORE: #1ReasonWhy: Women Take to Twitter to Talk about Sexism in Video-Game Industry)
The show, which airs on Denmark’s publicly funded television station, DR2, was met with widespread outrage from residents and was met with across-the-board criticism from local media outlets, including calls for the show to be canceled outright. Author Knud Romer called the show “a claustrophobic strip club which only serves to cement classic concepts of male dominance.” The outcry on Twitter and Facebook has been fast and furious as well.
Blachman doesn’t understand the criticism. He called those who don’t understand his genius “ungrateful,” and insisted that he is merely attempting to “stir discussion.” His producer, Sofia Fromberg, agrees with him. Fromberg, who works for DR2, seems to view the show as living up to Blachman’s vision of fomenting conversation, telling the Telegraph, “I am representing DR2, which is a society channel. Our main focus is what’s going on in society and we debate it.” She commented, “Here we have a program that reveals what men think about the female body. Quite honestly, what is wrong with that?”

The 12-inch MacBook is exactly what it sounds like: a tiny MacBook, akin to the existing Air and Pro. It has a similar unibody aluminum enclosure, complete with a spacious glass trackpad and black keys against a metal keyboard deck. (Stop me if you've heard that before.) Still, this new machine is markedly skinnier than any other MacBook you've seen: just 13.1mm (0.52 inch) at its thickest, tapering down to a razor-thin 3.5mm (0.14 inch) -- about as thick as a stack of four credit cards. Particularly since there's no plastic hinge on the back, like on the Air, the MacBook basically looks like an iPad when it's shut. Speaking of the sort, this is the first time in years an Apple laptop has been available in anything but silver; it will also be sold in space gray and even gold. As much as I would have loved to get my hands on a gold unit (imagine how my photos would have come out!), I prefer the darker space gray color; it's the one I'd get for myself if I were going to buy one.
The other reason for all these iPad comparisons: The new MacBook barely has any ports. Just a standard 3.5mm headphone jack along the right edge, and a single USB Type-C connection over on the left. And... that's it. No SD card slot, no display outputs. Not even any full-sized USB sockets. It's a sparse setup, not unlike on an iPad, and it reminds me of the original Air too -- remember how pissed everyone was about the fact that it only had one USB port?
Before I get ahead of myself, though, let's take a step back and talk about USB Type-C. You may have already seen these miniature ports on other machines like the new Chromebook Pixel, and you're bound to see them on many more laptops in the future. In case you need a refresher, though, USB Type-C is a relatively new standard, with a smaller opening than full-size USB Type-A ports, and a reversible design allowing you to plug in a cable any way you like. Aside from that, the other main benefit to USB Type-C ports is how versatile they are. The USB socket here isn't just the charging port; it also supports DisplayPort 1.2 video output and is compatible with HDMI and VGA displays, with the help of an adapter. Eventually, the standard will be ubiquitous; I look forward to the day when I can charge my laptop and phone using the same cable. With time, too, we'll see more and more third-party accessories that use USB Type-C, no adapter required.
That's the thing, though: While USB Type-C ports will one day become industry standard, they're still uncommon enough that you will need a dongle to plug in any of your peripherals that use a full-sized USB Type-A connector. In my case, that meant I couldn't charge my phone off my laptop. I also couldn't use the USB headset I normally wear while podcasting and making voice recordings. If I did want to use my USB gadgets, I would have had to plug in a $79 adapter -- that's right, it's not even included in the box. Again, I expect USB Type-C will one day be the norm, and it's possible that your needs are simple enough that you can already live without the full-sized USB ports.
For now, though, it feels like either Apple is ahead of its time, or it had to settle on a single, not-that-common port for the sake of building a super-skinny machine. All things considered, I would prefer a setup like on the Chromebook Pixel, which combines a pair of USB Type-C ports with two traditional USB Type-A ones. But the Pixel is a thicker machine with a bigger footprint; that kind of port layout wouldn't have worked on a machine as tiny as the MacBook. And that's fine, I guess -- I just don't buy it when Apple tries to spin the one-port design as a good thing.
Display and sound
With a weight difference of around a third of a pound, the main reason to buy the MacBook over the 11-inch Air isn't necessarily size, but screen quality: This machine brings with it a 12-inch Retina display with 2,304 x 1,440 resolution, or about 3 million pixels. As ever, it's a lovely, lovely panel, with rich colors and wide viewing angles, whether it's from the sides, with the machine on your lap, or with the screen dipped forward, as if you were balancing it on an airplane tray. Every time I use a Retina display machine, I wish that every Mac, even the lowly Air, had a screen this nice.
The audio quality is also robust -- surprisingly so. Any time I see a machine this small, I assume until proven otherwise that the audio will more or less be an afterthought and indeed, the thin speaker grille above the keyboard doesn't look like it packs much punch. In fact, though, I found that five or six out of 16 audio bars was plenty in a quiet room. The quality was also balanced enough that I had a good time streaming Spotify for hours on end; I never wished I had a bigger laptop or a set of external speakers.
Keyboard
At first glance, the keyboard here doesn't seem very promising: It's so flat that the buttons basically sit flush with the keyboard deck. In other words, it's a big departure from the relatively cushy keys we're used to on the MacBook Air and Pro. Then you try it, though, and you realize it's not nearly as uncomfortable as it looks. It's quite nice -- and in some ways it's an improvement over traditional laptop keyboards.
As it turns out, although the buttons are indeed flat, there's actually a lot going on beneath the surface. Despite the fact that the keyboard is 34 percent thinner, the keys feel remarkably springy and well-supported. As Apple describes it, the trick here was using a custom "butterfly" mechanism that keeps the keys stable and level when you press down on them. The alternative would have been the sort of "scissor" mechanism used on many Ultrabook keyboards. Suffice to say, I'm glad Apple didn't go that route: Too many of the ultraportables I've tested have limp, lifeless keys that wobble and flop around in their sockets. Worse, I frequently have to go back and re-type things on those machines -- and that's precisely because the uneven scissor mechanism causes one side of the keycap to hit the bottom before the key press can actually register.
Image credit: Apple
On the new MacBook, though, the keys feel firmly attached in their sockets, and I rarely, if ever, have to go back and re-type something that didn't stick the first time around. Whereas other Ultrabooks I've used have taught me to type slowly and deliberately, so as not to miss anything, with the new MacBook I'm free to type at a fast clip. My hands feel more relaxed too, because I know I don't have to mash the buttons to ensure a key-register. Much like with the iPhone's onscreen keyboard, which was met with initial skepticism, you just have to trust the MacBook's flat keyboard; it's more effective than it seems at first glance, but you won't fully appreciate that until you try it yourself.
It also helps that the individual keycaps are larger than they would be on other Macs. Specifically, they have a 17 percent larger surface area, making it more likely that you'll hit the button you meant to hit. Even the arrow keys -- usually the first casualty of keyboard redesigns -- are easy to find by feel. Also, they have a deeper curvature than previous MacBook keyboards, allowing Apple to "increase the scoop by 50 percent." (Hokay!) As a result of these larger buttons, the keyboard stretches from one edge of the chassis to another, with barely any space left over on either side. This, it seems, was a necessity: How else was Apple going to squeeze all those big keys onto such a small system?
All told, I still prefer the Air's pillowy keyboard to the one on the new MacBook, but I could easily use either as my daily driver. Both are a clear step up from the flat, gummy keys used on typical Ultrabooks.
Trackpad
Along with the new 13-inch MacBook Pro, the MacBook is the first laptop in Apple's lineup to come with the "Force Touch," a pressure-sensitive trackpad that responds differently depending on how hard you press. For instance, you can bear down on a word in Safari to see a dictionary definition or a Wikipedia preview. A hard press, or a "Force click," on an address in the Mail app will give you a pop-up map. You can also long-press on items in Finder to preview them or, my personal favorite, Force-click the skip buttons in iTunes and QuickTime to fast-forward or rewind at up to 60x the normal speed. In addition, Apple has released an SDK to developers allowing them to incorporate this feature into their apps, though as of this writing, certain popular downloads like Chrome don't have it yet.
I said this in my recent review of the new MacBook Pro, but I'm not convinced most of these pressure-sensitive gestures are actually useful. Even now that I've had several weeks to play with Force Touch, on both the Pro and the MacBook, I still can't always pull off the "Wikipedia preview" thing in Safari on my first try -- sometimes I merely highlight the word; sometimes I succeed in pulling up the preview box. In any case, in the time I spend futzing with that, I could easily just Google whatever it is in a separate browser tab -- in which case I get not simply a preview, but a full site with all the information I'm looking for. With Finder, I can press down to see a preview of a file, and then, if I press even harder, that preview stretches from a small thumbnail to a full-size image. It's a clever feature, but that two-step press feels inefficient; it was far easier to use the space bar to open and close file previews. If anything, I find the speedy fast-forwarding to be the most practical use case, and even then, I didn't use it often.
The Force Touch trackpad in action on the new 13-inch Retina display MacBook Pro.
Gimmick or not, there's another benefit to the Force Touch touchpad: It's thinner than the one used on the MacBook Air or older Pro models. In fact, I'm not even sure the old "diving board" trackpad would even fit on a machine this skinny. So how did Apple pull that off? Easy: Make it so that you can't actually click on the touchpad anymore. That's right, when the machine is turned off, the Force Touch pad is actually just a stiff sheet of glass that barely moves when you press down on it. Once you turn the machine on, though, Apple fools you into thinking you're actually clicking something. The secret: a "taptic engine" that delivers vibrating haptic feedback to simulate a button press.
It's an impressive trick; I often forgot I wasn't really clicking anything. Still, it doesn't feel like a "normal" button press, if by "normal" we mean the way a regular MacBook Air or Pro trackpad feels. The button here, as it were, feels much shallower than on a traditional diving-board touchpad, where you can only bear down on the bottom of the trackpad. Here, you can press anywhere on the pad, but it never feels like your finger is going down very far. The good news is, you get used to it. Some of this comes with time, although I also found it helped to enable tap-to-click. Ultimately, I find it easier to forgive the new trackpad here than I did with the 13-inch Pro. For all its shortcomings, the Force Touch allows the new MacBook to be thinner than it might have been otherwise. The MBP swaps in a new, less comfortable touchpad, but isn't any thinner or lighter for it.

There’s no faster way to navigate your computer than with keyboard shortcuts, and Windows continues to add more with each new version. Everything begins on the taskbar and Start menu, though, so it’s really handy to use them without ever clicking your mouse. Here are some useful keyboard shortcuts for working with the Windows taskbar.
Keyboard Shortcuts for Working with the Start Menu
There are not a lot of specific keyboard shortcuts for working with the Start menu, but you can still use your keyboard to navigate it and launch apps. For starters, you can open the Start menu by hitting the Windows key or by pressing Ctrl+Esc. You can close the Start menu by pressing Windows or Esc.
The Start menu is organized into three columns–folders, apps, and tiles. Use Tab and Shift+Tab to jump between those columns. Within a column, use your arrow keys to move around and press Enter to open whatever is highlighted. Note that if you use the right arrow key on an app that supports jumplists, it will display the jumplist, and you can use the left arrow to back out of the jumplist.
But the real power of the Start menu isn’t actually in its menus–it’s the built-in Search (and, in Windows 10, Cortana) features. Just press the Windows key to open the Start menu, and start typing. Whether you’re looking to launch an app, visit a page in the Control Panel, or see what events are coming up on your calendar, you can do it all without ever touching the mouse.
Windows 8 and 10 also added a new, somewhat hidden menu with more advanced options. Press Windows+X to open the Power Users menu, which–unlike the beginner-friendly Start menu–provides quick access to powerful utilities like the Event Viewer, Device Manager, Command Prompt, and more. After opening the Power Users menu with Windows+X, you can then press any of the underlined letters in the shortcut names to launch that utility. Or, you can just use your arrow keys to move up and down and press Enter to launch your selection.
Note: If you see PowerShell instead of Command Prompt on the Power Users menu, that’s a switch that came about with the Creators Update for Windows 10. It’s very easy to switch back to showing the Command Prompt on the Power Users menu if you want, or you can give PowerShell a try. You can do pretty much everything in PowerShell that you can do in Command Prompt, plus a lot of other useful things.
Keyboard Shortcuts for Launching Apps on the Taskbar
The first ten apps on your taskbar are assigned numbers from 1 through 0, left to right. This allows you to launch them with your keyboard.
Press the Windows key along with a number key to launch the corresponding app. On the taskbar above, for example, Windows+3 would launch Google Chrome, Windows+4 would launch Slack, and so on all the way up through Windows+0 for Outlook. Using these keyboard shortcuts on an app that’s already running will toggle the app between a minimized and maximized state.
You can also hold down Shift while using those shortcuts to launch a new instance of an app that’s already running. In our example, pressing Shift+Windows+3 would open a new window for Chrome, even if Chrome is already open.
Using the Ctrl key with those shortcuts displays the most recently launched instance of an app. For example, say you had three File Explorer windows open on your PC, and File Explorer was in the first position on your taskbar. Pressing Ctrl+Windows+1 would show you the File Explorer window you most recently opened.
RELATED: Access Frequently Used Items in Windows 7 with Jump Lists
The Alt key modifies the basic shortcut to open an app’s jumplist. So, pressing Alt+Windows+8 in our example would pop up Notepad’s jumplist. You can then use your arrow keys to select an entry on the jumplist and then press Enter to launch your selection.
And while the number shortcuts only go up to ten, you can also press Windows+T to highlight the first app on your taskbar, then use your arrow keys to move through all your taskbar apps and press Enter to launch whatever is highlighted.
You can also perform a similar trick in the Notification Area (or system tray) at the right end of the taskbar. Press Windows+B to highlight the first item in the Notification Area–usually the up arrow that leads to additional icons–and then use your arrow keys to move around.
Pressing Enter selects whatever is the default action for the icon. Or you can press your Context key (if your keyboard has one) or Shift+F10 to open the full context menu for the icon.
Keyboard+Mouse Shortcuts for Working with Apps on the Taskbar
If you prefer using your mouse, there are also a few keyboard accelerators you can use while mousing that can speed things up for you:
Shift+click an app on the taskbar to open a new instance of the app.
Ctrl+Shift+click an app to open it as an administrator.
Shift+right-click an app to open the context menu for the underlying application. Just right-clicking an app on the taskbar opens the jumplist for apps that support them or the context menu for the shortcut itself.
Hold Ctrl while clicking a grouped app (one which has more than one instance open) to cycle through the open instances of the app.
And there you have it. While there aren’t a huge number of keyboard shortcuts for working with your taskbar, there are more than enough to do pretty much anything you can do with your mouse. | positive |

Migrants from the Calais Jungle camp are using a deadly new tactic in their attempts to get to Britain.
Ruthless gangs are deliberately causing crashes on the roads to the French port by hurling large objects at cars – then sneaking on to lorries caught up in the resulting tailbacks.
Home Secretary Amber Rudd has spoken out after a team of Mail on Sunday journalists narrowly escaped death last week when three migrants threw a log at their car, forcing it into the path of a 38-ton juggernaut.

After being briefed about the incident, Ms Rudd issued a statement describing the development as 'extremely concerning'.
She added: 'It's vital that people feel safe when using the Channel ports. This shows just how it is in all our interests to combat attempts to enter the UK illegally.'
Reporter Ben Ellery, 32, and photographers Steve Burton and John McLellan were all injured when their British-registered Audi swerved to avoid the missile.
They then hit the lorry, sending their vehicle spinning out of control. The juggernaut dragged the car sideways for about 50 yards.
The three men were later rushed to hospital for treatment. Ellery's head was gashed to the bone after it struck the steering wheel, and he required eight stitches.
McLellan, 60, was left with deep cuts to his face, and Burton, 57, suffered a gash on his head and severe bruising to his back.

French interior minister Bernard Cazeneuve has pledged to close jungle camp – where numbers have swelled by 3,000 to more than 9,000
They had been investigating a shocking explosion of violence at the squalid migrant camp and the growing number of attacks on trucks heading for Britain.
This sinister escalation risks the lives of thousands of British families using ferries and the Channel Tunnel as they return from their summer holidays. And it comes ahead of planned 'go slow' protest by French truckers tomorrow that is likely to cause chaos for returning tourists.
French interior minister Bernard Cazeneuve has pledged to close the camp – where numbers have swelled by 3,000 to more than 9,000 – by the end of the year, but local residents want him to speed up the process. An extra 200 police officers have been dispatched to the area and uniformed French troops have also started patrolling.
A Calais police source told The Mail on Sunday there had been a number of reported incidents 'of projectiles being thrown directly at cars, so as to force them to stop'.
Dazed and bloodied: Ben Ellery staggers to the side of the road after the crash
He said the menacing new tactic – along with blockades on the road –'was of huge concern, and was likely to result in very serious accidents'.
French officials and hospital staff confirmed that migrants are deliberately causing accidents to create traffic tailbacks on the N216 motorway into the ferry port, and the A16 to the Channel Tunnel. They are also putting up barricades.
Quentin Patte, an emergency doctor at Calais Hospital, told The Mail on Sunday: 'Targeting motorists in order to cause accidents is a new tactic. A colleague treated someone recently who was injured when a migrant threw something at their vehicle near the port.'
Another doctor at the hospital revealed asylum-seekers come into the hospital daily after being wounded in vicious knife fights in the camp.
He said: 'They come in every day with stab wounds. There is particularly a rivalry between the Afghans and the Sudanese. They are given priority because their wounds are so serious.'
A paramedic told our reporters: 'This is happening all the time now. It's a war out there.'
Lorry drivers are experiencing soaring violence, threats and intimidation as they pass through the French port, according to locals.
Every night, squads of French riot police are involved in running battles with gangs. The police fire tear gas as they chase them from the edge of the main roads.
Police say they are dealing with around 30 blockades each night.
A team of highway workers toils through the night constantly clearing debris from the motorways around the port and tunnel.
Jean-Marc Puissesseau, president of the port of Calais, said: 'Migrants are throwing tree trunks, branches and shopping carts at cars on the motorway. It is very dangerous.'
David Sagnard, president of the local branch of France's national federation of lorry drivers, said: 'The violence of the migrants has not gone up by a notch, but by ten.
'Why do we have to risk our lives on the motorway just doing our job, or simply because we're tourists? It is not acceptable.'

Frederic Houtecoeur, a lorry driver from Belgium, said: 'Every night we are coming up against migrants and our lives are put at risk. It is extremely dangerous'
Jean-Marc Puissesseau, president of the port of Calais, said: 'Migrants are throwing tree trunks, branches and shopping carts at cars on the motorway. It is very dangerous'
A two-mile-long, £2.5 million fence – paid for by British taxpayers – was erected in Calais last year to stop migrants jumping into the back of lorries while they were queuing to cross the Channel. Now the migrants, mainly young men from Sudan, Ethiopia and Afghanistan, are targeting vehicles on the motorway two miles away, at the point where the fence ends.
Our reporting team was investigating the worrying phenomenon when they came under attack in the early hours of Friday on the N216.
Half an hour earlier they saw police clearing metal crowd-control barriers which had been strewn across the A16.
The night before, the team filmed three migrants as they brazenly tried to board a lorry that had stopped on the motorway because tree branches had been dragged across the carriageway.
One migrant attempted to climb into the gap between the cab and the trailer of the lorry as two of his friends looked on, hoping he could smuggle himself into the UK.
The shocked driver sounded his horn before deciding to drive over the branches to get away from the men, who fled into the woods when police arrived.

Barrier: Two migrants at the two-mile long fence that guards the port of Calais in the north of France
Regional highways boss Xavier Delebarre said: 'The gangs have tools including chainsaws. There is a strategy to their concerted, simultaneous assaults.'
He said it amounted to a sinister 'game' and described how workers have come across a number of dead bodies of migrants who had been hit by lorries after they had run into the road.
Frederic Houtecoeur, a lorry driver from Belgium, said: 'Every night we are coming up against migrants and our lives are put at risk. It is extremely dangerous.'
Currently a record 1,900 French police are deployed in Calais. But Keith Vaz, chairman of the Home Affairs Committee, last night called for British police to be sent to France to help deal with the violence.
He said: 'This is becoming a war zone with wanton violence being perpetrated against drivers. It is totally unacceptable that the situation has reached crisis point.'

'IT'S CHAOS OUT THERE' SAY BRITS CAUGHT UP THE CALAIS JUNGLE MAYHEM Many other Britons have been terrorised by migrant gangs, including top equestrian Lucy Phillips, whose horsebox was attacked last month. Migrants built a 3ft barrier with felled trees to block Lucy’s route to the Calais ferry terminal then smashed a window of the horsebox, showering her mother Liz, 63, with broken glass and scaring her gelding Pitucelli. Lucy, 26, from Solihull, West Midlands, said: ‘The attack seemed to go on for a lifetime before police arrived.’ Delivery driver Glen Shadbolt, 39, from Knebworth, Hertfordshire, charged his 3.5-ton minivan through a similar barrier. He said: ‘It’s absolute chaos out there.’ And last month, 40 migrants surrounded Londoner Irshaad Dar’s car and smashed the windows with metal bars. He added: ‘I was shaking with fear.’
MoS man chillingly tells how he narrowly avoided death when a tree trunk was hurled at his car by migrant gangs in Calais
By Ben Ellery in Calais for the Mail on Sunday
Injured: Photographer Steve, on a stretcher, and colleague John in the ambulance last week
Like millions of Britons, I have driven along the featureless road leading to the Calais ferry port so many times over the years it has become a familiar final glimpse of France before heading home.
For a few sickening moments early on Friday, I feared it might be the last thing I ever saw.
But the most chilling aspect of the crash in which my car was written off and my two passengers and I narrowly escaped death, was that it was not an accident at all – but the result of a deliberate, cold-blooded act.
The tree trunk hurled at our car which caused the near-fatal swerve could have been thrown at any family travelling back to the UK. And the next victims may not be so lucky.
I was with photographers John McLellan and Steve Burton after investigating the increasing menace that migrant gangs pose for motorists around Calais. We were about to find out only too clearly.
We were on the autoroute to the ferry port, travelling at about 50mph, when three migrants suddenly appeared on the right side of the road. I saw one of them was carrying a thick log. With both hands he hurled it at the windscreen and I instinctively jerked the steering wheel to the left. I felt a sickening jolt as the car was hit by an articulated lorry and we spun out of control. Then we were pushed sideways at speed along the road by the 38-ton truck.
I expected to hit another vehicle at any moment. I stabbed at the brake pedal furiously but we were at the mercy of the larger vehicle.
My face cracked against the steering wheel and John let out a moan as his face smashed into his camera. After about 50 yards, we came to a halt.
I asked Steve and John if they were OK, but neither could speak. One let out a groan. I could feel blood gushing out of my own face.
I was not sure whether it was safer to stay in the car and risk getting hit by an oncoming vehicle, or to walk on to the carriageway.
I also didn’t know whether the migrants might want to attack us again.
I stumbled from the car on to a carpet of smashed glass. The lorry was blocking John’s door and he scrambled out of mine.
Paramedics turned up within minutes and I saw Steve (pictured) being loaded on to a stretcher in a neck brace, writes Ben Ellery
My adrenaline was surging and I staggered to the side of the road. After about 30 seconds the police arrived. I motioned for them to get Steve out of the car.
Paramedics turned up within minutes and I saw Steve being loaded on to a stretcher in a neck brace. The lorry driver, a Hungarian called Ferenc, ran up to John and gave him a hug.
He started apologising but John told him it wasn’t his fault. Ferenc had seen the migrants too and there was nothing he could do.
I got into the ambulance and a paramedic told me I would have to have stitches as bone was visible under a deep gash.
One medic said he thought British volunteers were helping the migrants with equipment such as chainsaws to create blockades. At the hospital I was told of a tourist treated for injuries after a migrant threw something at their car.
As one doctor put eight stitches in my face, another came in and said two migrants had just been admitted with knife wounds inflicted during a fight. One was critical having been stabbed in the neck, and the other’s lungs had been punctured. My CT scan was delayed as they were given priority. The doctor said: ‘This happens every day.’
The next day I went to the Commissariat de Police in Calais to find out what happened to my car and was told by an officer that these sort of attacks were happening ‘tous les jours.’
At the recovery compound I shuddered at the sight of my caved-in car and the thought of how lucky we were to survive.
Would a young family have come out alive from the same attack? I don’t think they would. | positive |

Most of the time, we can spend a couple hours to get a concept and some general pricing. Once our clients come to the store and see the design, we can then talk about revisions and design fees. Outdoor Living Design Center We started the outdoor living design center for 1 main reason: To give people a chance to see and touch the objects that they could only imagine or see in a magazine. We spent countless hours taking samples to clients for their outdoor living areas but those samples never really portrayed the true look of the materials. Magazines and brochures could never get the colors exactly right when looking at pavers and wall block. Well, now there's a much better solution which makes your decision lots easier!! Our outdoor living design center features many of the hardscapes needed to complete the perfect backyard. From paver patios to outdoor kitchens, we will continue to design and build at this location for years to come and features items such as: Outdoor fireplaces & fire pits. Outdoor kitchens and appliances. Outdoor living spaces Paver patios in many styles and colors. Stone walls & columns. Retaining walls. Paver Patios & Outdoor Living Areas Outdoor Kitchens & Grill Islands Fireplaces and Firepits Low Voltage Landscape Lighting Now we come to my favorite part of any landscape design project: Low voltage lighting!! Why spend money on an area to entertain and not be able to see it at night? For the last 6-7 years, we have been trying to include a landscape lighting estimate with every project, even if the client didn't request it. With proper planning in the design stages, we can come back at a later date and install any lighting system. Our system of choice lately has been a standard low voltage system with LED bulbs. In addition to the energy savings, you increase the life of the bulb from 4,000 hours with a standard halogen to approx. 45,000 hours with an LED bulb.

Share it! Taking a Campus OER Community of Learning to Open Date 2022-03 Author Ancelet, Lisa Price, Amanda N. Towery, Stephanie Waugh, Laura Metadata Show full metadata Abstract In Fall 2020, the Texas State University Libraries’ Scholarly Communications Committee designed a foundational course, the OER Community of Learning, to develop a baseline of knowledge about OER for library staff as well as the broader university community members. The Community of Learning consists of self-paced Canvas modules developed by the committee, and then peer reviewed by library staff, university staff, faculty, and administrators to assure needs-based, quality content covering a broad range of perspectives in teaching and learning. These self-paced modules include instructional content, quizzes, and supplemental live workshop sessions with content creators, cohort participants, and invited speakers for active discussions on OER related topics. A team of Texas State librarians wanted to take the project further and share this successful campus initiative of foundational OER course material, full of modules and quizzes, to the wider community by converting the Canvas-based modules into an open course hosted on the OERTX repository platform. The content could then be accessible for others to use either for learning the basics of OER themselves, remixing content components for their teaching, or sharing in its entirety with the communities they serve. Most importantly, OERTX offers a range of accessibility features not available elsewhere. Special features allow users to change the display of certain elements of the site to meet unique viewing preferences; pages on the OERTX repository are compatible with screen readers and accessible to keyboard navigation; and authoring tools include Accessible Rich Internet Applications (ARIA) long descriptions, image captions, and embedded A11y accessibility mode microdata that support specific learning modes such as auditory, visual, or textual. Our presentation outlines the considerations, planning, and work involved to make this content open, as well as the challenges and successes. It provides a framework for other librarians to make their own OER programs available to share on an Open Educational platform. Citation Ancelet, L., Price, A. N., Towery, S., & Waugh, L. (2022).

My Rematch Santa was absolutely amazing! He/She pulled my information immediately, sent me a nice message right away, and had my gift shipped that same day. And if that wasn't enough, what arrived at my doorstep today made me so happy!
I mentioned that my old fountain pen broke and that my favorite color is purple - so my Santa got me a purple Pilot pen! It is beautiful and writes like a dream. Such a nice pen! I absolutely love it and will use it every day. It's my new favorite. It even came with extra ink!
My Santa also found out that I love rabbits and picked out a nice stationery set of 10 cards total with a cute rabbit design on it. Can't wait to send these out and brighten other people's day with them! I recently found the /r/RandomActsofCards group and it's been so much fun, so these cards will come to good use for sure.
Thank you so very much, Rematch Santa! You are awesome and very generous! I appreciate the gifts! | positive |

Consider the example of calendar time. In many U.S. early elementary classrooms, this practice eats up 15–20 minutes daily, often in a coveted early-morning slot when students are fresh and attentive. Some calendar time activities may be worthwhile. For example, teachers might use this time for important teaching around grouping and place value. But other activities are questionable at best. For example, is the following routine still effective if it’s already February and your students still don’t know:
The number one concern that I hear from educators is lack of time, particularly lack of instructional time with students. It’s not surprising that we feel a press for time. Our expectations for students have increased dramatically, but our actual class time with students has not. Although we can't entirely solve the time problem, we can mitigate it by carefully analyzing our use of class time, looking for what Beth Brinkerhoff and Alysia Roehrig (2014) call “time wasters.”
Yesterday was _____.
Today is _____.
Tomorrow will be _____.
Does dressing a teddy bear for the weather each day make optimal use of instructional time? Some teachers respond, “But we love our teddy bear, and it only takes a few minutes!” But three minutes a day for 180 days adds up to nine hours. Children would also love engineering design projects, deep discussions of texts they’ve read, or math games.
To help us analyze and maximize use of instructional time, here are five common literacy practices in U.S. schools that research suggests are not optimal use of instructional time:
1. “Look Up the List” Vocabulary Instruction
Students are given a list of words to look up in the dictionary. They write the definition and perhaps a sentence that uses the word. What’s the problem?
We have long known that this practice doesn’t build vocabulary as well as techniques that actively engage students in discussing and relating new words to known words, for example through semantic mapping (Bos & Anders, 1990). As Charlene Cobb and Camille Blachowicz (2014) document, research has revealed so many effective techniques for teaching vocabulary that a big challenge now is deciding among them.
2. Giving Students Prizes for Reading
From Reading Month in March to year-long reading incentive programs, it’s common practice in the U.S. to give students prizes such as stickers, bracelets, and fast food coupons for reading. What’s the problem?
Unless these prizes are directly related to reading (e.g., books), this practice actually makes students less likely to choose reading as an activity in the future (Marinak & Gambrell, 2008). It undermines reading motivation. Opportunities to interact with peers around books, teacher “book blessings,” special places to read, and many other strategies are much more likely to foster long-term reading motivation (Marinak & Gambrell, 2016).
3. Weekly Spelling Tests
Generally, all students in a class receive a single list of words on Monday and are expected to study the words for a test on Friday. Distribution of the words, in-class study time, and the test itself use class time. What’s the problem?
You’ve all seen it—students who got the words right on Friday misspell those same words in their writing the following Monday! Research suggests that the whole-class weekly spelling test is much less effective than an approach in which different students have different sets of words depending on their stage of spelling development, and emphasis is placed on analyzing and using the words rather than taking a test on them (see Palmer & Invernizzi, 2015 for a review).
4. Unsupported Independent Reading
DEAR (Drop Everything and Read), SSR (Sustained Silent Reading), and similar approaches provide a block of time in which the teacher and students read books of their choice independently. Sounds like a great idea, right?
Studies have found that this doesn’t actually foster reading achievement. To make independent reading worthy of class time, it must include instruction and coaching from the teacher on text selection and reading strategies, feedback to students on their reading, and text discussion or other post-reading response activities (for example, Kamil, 2008; Reutzel, Fawson, & Smith, 2008; see Miller & Moss, 2013 for extensive guidance on supporting independent reading).
5. Taking Away Recess as Punishment
What is this doing on a list of literacy practices unworthy of instructional time? Well, taking away recess as a punishment likely reduces students’ ability to benefit from literacy instruction. How?
There is a considerable body of research linking physical activity to academic learning. For example, one action research study found that recess breaks before or after academic lessons led to students being more on task (Fagerstrom & Mahoney, 2006). Students with ADHD experience reduced symptoms when they engage in physical exercise (Pontifex et al., 2012)—and these students are probably among the most likely to have their recess taken away. There are alternatives to taking away recess that are much more effective and don’t run the risk of reducing students’ attention to important literacy instruction (Cassetta & Sawyer, 2013).
Measure of Success
Whether or not you engage in these specific activities, they provide a sense that there are opportunities to make better use of instructional time in U.S. schools. I encourage you to scrutinize your use of instructional time minute by minute. If a practice is used because we’ve always done it that way or because parents expect it, it’s especially worthy of a hard look. At the same time, if a practice consistently gets results in an efficient and engaging way, protect it at all costs. Together we can rid U.S. classrooms of what does not work.

St. Paul public works staff on June 1 will present a report and recommendation to the City Council on organized trash collection. The presentation, to be made at 5:30 p.m., will be followed by a public hearing on the recommended goals.
The city now has an open system of trash collection, in which residents contract with their own hauler, and many haulers serve each neighborhood across the city. Under an organized system, haulers are authorized to collect trash from a specific service area.
On Feb. 24, the City Council directed the Public Works Department to get residents’ opinions to develop objectives for organized trash collection. The report summarizes that feedback and offers draft objectives should the council decide to move forward. The report will be available online on Wednesday. For more information, visit www.stpaul.gov/organized-trash-collection.

RAMSEY COUNTY
Proposed Vento trail extension to be discussed
A community meeting will be held Wednesday in Vadnais Heights to discuss a planned extension of the Bruce Vento Regional Trail in northeast Ramsey County.
The mostly flat trail runs between St. Paul and Maplewood. The proposed 3-mile project would extend the trail along or near Hwy. 61 into Vadnais Heights, Gem Lake, White Bear Lake and White Bear Township, ending at Hwy. 96.
The trail will be a 12-foot-wide bituminous surface with 2 feet of clear zones beyond the pavement. Its slope would not exceed 5 percent, and bridge underpass designs for County Road E and Hwy. 61 allow for a 12-foot clearance. Depending on federal funding, construction is expected within five years.
The meeting will be held from 4 to 6 p.m. Wednesday at the Vadnais Sports Center, 1490 County Road E, Vadnais Heights.

Developing these records to the point of data interpretation requires careful sample collection, processing, analysis and data modeling. In this work, we document a number of potential pitfalls that can impact sediment core records and their interpretation. This paper is not intended as an exhaustive treatment of these potential problems. Rather, the emphasis is on potential problems that are not well documented in the literature, as follows: (1) the mere sampling of sediment cores at a resolution that is too coarse can result in an apparent diffusive mixing of the sedimentary record at rates comparable to diffusive bioturbation rates observed in many locations; (2) Pb-210 profiles in slowly accumulating sediments can easily be misinterpreted to be driven by sedimentation, when in fact bioturbation is the dominant control. Multiple isotopes of different half lives and/or origin may help to distinguish between these two possible interpretations; (3) apparent mixing can occur due simply to numerical artifacts inherent in the finite difference approximations of the advection diffusion equation used to model sedimentation and bioturbation. Model users need to be aware of this potential problem. Solutions to each of these potential pitfalls are offered to ensure the best possible sediment age estimates and/or sedimentation and bioturbation rates can be obtained. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd.

News of raids, arrests, seizures, extraditions and jail time in the file-sharing world hasn't gone unnoticed by the operators of major BitTorrent sites. Yesterday, the owners of BTjunkie decided to close their site because the stress became too much, and there are others who consider doing the same. While there are still plenty site owners who are determined to continue, doubt and uncertainty are more present than ever before.
For nearly a decade BitTorrent sites have ruled the file-sharing landscape.
In recent weeks, however, worry about the future has increased drastically among the owners of some of the largest torrent sites. Yesterday, BTjunkie closed its doors for good, and TorrentFreak has learned that at least two other sites in the top 10 have toyed with the same idea.
“There have been talks of shutting our site down, even before BTjunkie did it,” one admin told TorrentFreak on condition of anonymity.
The aggressive actions against MegaUpload – site founder Kim Dotcom was raided by an anti-terrorist squad last month – are frequently mentioned as cause for concern. So much so that several people involved with one of the largest torrent sites on the Internet have already dropped out.
“A couple guys on the staff decided not to be involved anymore with the site after the MegaUpload incident,” the admin told us.
The fact that a German citizen can be arrested in New Zealand upon request from the US authorities signaled that regardless of local laws, people connected to file-sharing sites have become a global target.
“It’s turning into a witch hunt. It is worrying,” said the admin.
The thoughts of this admin are shared by one of the owners of another major torrent site, who told TorrentFreak in private that shutting down has crossed his mind on several occasions.
Things have become more and more complicated in recent weeks. Even those who are as cooperative as possible with copyright holders, by swiftly responding to DMCA takedown requests for example, can’t be entirely sure that they won’t become the next target.
On the other side, however, there are also those who continue undeterred, such as isoHunt.com owner Gary Fung, who is battling in court with the music and movie industries.
“After 6 years of 2 civil lawsuits with MPAA and CRIA, we are still here. None of these events is really new to us. From Lokitorrent to Suprnova, we’ve seen sites we index come and go. And as long as the Free Internet exists, sharing will endure. As will isoHunt,” he says.
Ironically enough, isoHunt’s ongoing legal battle might be what keeps Fung relatively safe. If the authorities planned to launch a criminal investigation against a torrent site it would be strange to pick one that is already involved in a civil lawsuit with a copyright holder.
Besides not being worried about the future, isoHunt’s owner is going on the offensive and is urging the entertainment industries to embrace technology, instead if fighting it.
“Perhaps more than ever, I wish the content industries will wake up to the fact you can’t fight technological progress, that battles maybe won, the war is already lost. Unless Content really starts working with technology to accelerate spread of culture, as the Internet has naturalized it. And make more money than ever in the process,” Fung says.
“Because so-called piracy enabled by the Internet and media consumption is not a zero-sum game, a download does not equal a lost sale, and what pirates really want is not necessarily free as in beer, but free as in speech and convenience.”
isoHunt’s determination to continue operating is shared by Extratorrent‘s admin Sam, whose site became the 5th largest torrent site after BTjunkie folded.
“What happened with MegaUpload is not at all good for the torrent world, but I would say it is impossible to stop the unstoppable. After all, if one site is shut down, a hundred new sites will open,” Sam told TorrentFreak, adding, “We have no plans to shut down,we will continue running as usual.”
Another site that’s not going anywhere is The Pirate Bay, the largest torrent site of all. Although its founders are now very close to serving jail time, the site itself will remain online. In the coming weeks The Pirate Bay will replace .torrent files with magnet links, which makes the site more portable and resilient.
The above shows that the end of BitTorrent is not near, but it’s hard to ignore the changing climate. People who previously saw no problems with running a torrent site are now reconsidering their position. The exact fallout, and whether there will be any newcomers to fill the gaping hole BTjunkie left, will become apparent in the coming months. | positive |
Review: Hardy Zephrus Ultralite fly rod | Hatch Magazine - Fly Fishing, etc. Jump to navigation Review: Hardy Zephrus Ultralite fly rod The new $700 offering from Hardy puts itself in the conversation for best fly rod on the market by Spencer Durrant - Monday, Oct 9th, 2017 Photo: Spencer Durrant Hardy’s Zenith rods, discontinued when the Wraith and Zephrus lines were introduced a few years ago, are among some of the most-loved sticks in recent memory. Like the Zenith, Wraith, Zephrus and all Hardy rods from the last decade or so, the blanks for the new Zephrus Ultralite family are rolled in Korea. Perhaps surprisingly to some, where a blank is rolled or a rod is assembled doesn’t impact its performance or quality. In fact, the new Zephrus Ultralite from Hardy is likely my favorite fly rod currently on the market. I’ve had the privilege of fishing the Zephrus Ultralite in a 9’9” 2wt, 8’9” 4wt, 9’ 5wt, 9’9” 4wt, and 9’9” 5wt over the past few months. And while each rod has its own personality, two things remained consistent throughout the new Ultralite family: unfair accuracy and strikingly smooth casting. Starting at under $700 and offered in weights 2-5, the Zephrus Ultralite provides performance equal to or exceeding other rods priced much closer to the $1,000-mark. What Works Weight As the name implies, the new Zephrus Ultralite is light. Notably light. And that’s saying something, given that the past half-decade or so has seen most rod makers touting the light weight of their blanks. But it’s become a moot point since rods like Winston’s IM6 or Sage’s XP hit the 3.5oz or lighter mark. More Like This Review: Hardy Sirrus Glass fly rod Review: Hardy Ultralite X fly rod Review: Redington Hydrogen fly rod Yet Hardy is within its rights to brag about the weight of the Zephrus Ultralite because its ultra-light Ultratelite-ness is immediately evident from the second you pick it up. Single-foot guides, a unique reel seat, and the company’s proprietary Sintrix 440 resin combine to create a 9’5wt rod that’s a paltry 2.5oz, while the 9’9” 5wt tips the scales at whopping 2.8oz. Blank performance So many aspects go into blank performance that it’s hard to single out one of them. Torsional stability affects tracking, which affects swing weight, which affects the action and “feel” of the rod itself. To sum it all up as quickly as possible, I’ll mention just a few things. First, the Zephrus Ultralite's blank is surprisingly strong, stiff and stable given its weight. The tracking isn’t as tight as something like the Sage X or Orvis Helios 3, but it’s pretty damned close. What’s impossible to notice until you actually fish the rod, though, is its backbone. It’s not really there when you’re casting—the Zephrus Ultralite has a decidedly medium action, very similar to the old Winston GVX—but the second you hook a fish you’ll feel it. From high country Colorado River cutthroat trout to big browns and rainbows on the Green River in Utah, the blank’s backbone was more than strong enough to turn trout into the net. Hell, I landed a 20-inch whitefish on the 9’9” 2wt and even on that light tackle I got the fish to hand in a reasonable amount of time. Accuracy and feel Since the blank fares so well, the accuracy does too. From streamers to small dries to my standard dry-dropper rig, the Zephrus Ultralite put my flies where I needed them. Of course, accuracy is more dependent on the angler than the rod, but a great rod helps. The first time I went to cast one of these rods, my local Hardy rep said he’d bet $20 I’d throw a tailing loop. Anyone who’s fished recent Hardy rods knows they’re on the faster end of the spectrum, and that’s what I expected when I threw my first lawn casts. To my credit, I didn’t throw a tailing loop, but my first cast wasn’t exactly pretty. A few casts later I’d slowed my stroke down and found the rod loading and unloading line with a firm, predictable cadence. Photo: Spencer Durrant Build quality and reel seat The Zephrus Ultralite has a gorgeous dark green finish that glistens in the sunlight, along with some really intricate cross-wraps from the winding check up to the end of the rod inscriptions. Titanium recoil single-foot guides adorn the rod, kept in place with thread that matches the blank color. What’s really eye-catching, though, is the reel seat. The cork grip is soft, supple, and smooth—and that cork continues into the reel seat. The front half of the reel seat —where the reel foot is held in place—is all cork. The back half has a thin bit of hardwood veneer, striking a unique balance between the classy look of wood and the light weight of cork. What Doesn’t Work Wind Every high-end rod (which I classify as $650+) handles average wind just fine. They have to if they want to sell. Where some rods separate themselves from others is in their ability to handle above-average wind. The Helios 3D and Sage X lead the pack in that regard. The Zephrus Ultralite just doesn’t live up to that level of wind-beating performance. That’s the trade-off you make for light weight and insane feel in close and it’s one I’m personally happy to make. Some anglers may not be, though. Line speed Anglers used to high line speed, laser-tight loops, and the hiss of line shooting through your guides won’t get that experience from the Zephrus Ultralite. Its slower action means slower line speed, but that’s relative to the “norm” in today’s industry. Personally, I’m used to that sort of line speed, but most anglers aren’t. Final Word For $699.95 you can get the 9’ 5wt Zephrus Ultralite with Hardy’s lifetime warranty, superior build quality, and all the incredible performance attributes mentioned above. At that price there may not be a better rod on the market. I’d even go so far as to say the Zephrus Ultralite deserves to be in the conversation for best fly rod on the planet, alongside rods like the Sage X, Orvis Helios 3, Loomis Asquith and NRX-LP, Scott Radian, and Winston Boron IIIx. The best part? The Zephrus Ultralite costs significantly less. Spencer Durrant is a fly fishing writer, outdoors columnist, and novelist from Utah.

Up-and-coming Texas country five-piece Whiskey Myers are premiering “Stone,” from their forthcoming album Mud, exclusively for readers of The Boot.
Written by Whiskey Myers' lead singer, Cody Cannon, “Stone” is decidedly more mellow than many of the band’s hard-rocking tracks. It’s a musician’s lament of sorts, shining a light on the less-than-glamorous aspects of being out on the road -- especially the struggle of trying to find a good woman.
“Well, I guess I got my bottle / Because I stay on it all the time / But it keeps me smiling and singing / Helps me fall asleep a li'l bit better at night,” sings Cannon in the second verse of "Stone." “They say life is like a dagger / And backstage is full of parasites / They’ll love you, drain you of everything you own / Just to feel better about their lives.”
“Stone” is the fifth track from Whiskey Myers’ soon-to-be-released third studio album, Mud , produced by Dave Cobb . The record maintains the band’s signature, Southern rock- and classic rock-influenced sound and is heavily spiked with the edge that has earned Whiskey Myers so much attention from fans and critics alike, but it's a more refined and cohesive than 2014's Early Morning Shakes .
Set for release on Sept. 9, Mud is currently available for pre-order via Pledge Music . Fans can find more information about Whiskey Myers, include tour dates, on their official website . | positive |
I’ve always admired Jon Stewart’s willingness to question his own side, and to demand substantive answers from his guests. In his recent interview with House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), however, he seemed to be arguing with himself. After asking how Democrats can make a stronger case for the competence of government, Stewart lamented “…because on our end, it looks like it’s a bit chaotic.”
From his hilarious ripping of the NSA to pressing Pelosi on why healthcare.gov is such a mess, (to which she replied “I don’t know”) his subtle skepticism about certain government initiatives while believing others to be essential has always puzzled me. It seems obvious that his aversion to concentrated power in the hands of the rich, would be difficult to achieve while entrusting the people they’ve paid to prevent it.
He touched on this Thursday with a question that not only highlighted a lack of awareness on the part of Pelosi but hints at a growing disillusionment among Stewart and many on the left:
“Is it possible that the people within the system don’t have enough distance from it to see…These corporations lobby to get all kinds of arcane things put into the regulations that makes it harder for these small businesses…Can our congress maybe not see the corruption inherent in that?”
The former House Speaker denied knowledge of any intrinsic corruption, but Stewart didn’t share her conviction; insisting there is a “systemic” and “foundational problem” that has eroded America’s confidence in government.
Citing examples from backlogged veteran’s benefits, to disappointment with the Affordable Care Act, Stewart’s concerns sounded more like that of a Tea Partier than a prominent liberal comedian.
Despite this, the Daily Show host remained adamant that there must be a way for further government oversight to reverse the abuse and inefficiencies caused by government in the first place.
In what’s become a staple of the American Left, both Pelosi and Stewart pushed the narrative that in order to stifle the influence of special interests who funnel money to both parties, government must “have a role as a balancing factor against corporate power”. It never occurs to them that granting more influence to those already bought out by wealthy elites will hardly deter further abuse in the future.
Even after Pelosi suggested the Dodd-Frank bill as a legislative achievement for reform, Stewart shot back “And look at the way it’s been implemented…now it’s 900 pages long when it used to be 2 pages.”
Channeling his inner libertarian, Stewart continued:
“My point is this. When I talk about how those rules get expanded, a lot of that expansion is purposeful from these much larger corporations that can afford the legal counsel and lobbyists to add in things that carve out exceptions that allow them to continue to do what they do and corrupt the original intent…The process is somewhat corrupt.”
To Pelosi’s chagrin and Stewart’s credit, he rejected the notion that Democrats are immune to the malfeasance:
“…there is also within the Democratic Party a problem with lobbyists and corruption and the revolving door to corporations back and forth…”
It’s no surprise that Mrs. Pelosi would shy away from explicitly condemning the deep pockets that line Democratic coffers considering her own ties to lobbyists and monied interests; what is perplexing is Stewart’s steadfast support for government growth after his repeated denouncements of its efficacy.
Even the California Congresswoman acknowledged that bureaucracies and government employees may tend to be “risk-averse” or lack efficiency but brushed this aside as merely the way things work and not a cause for alarm. Only within the beltway could someone assert a program’s necessity while also admitting its inability to perform at a competent level.
It’s difficult to understand the continued desire for more government from liberals like Stewart in the wake of countless scandals, broken promises and even his own doubts surrounding its capacity to operate without breeding corruption.
But a look at Stewart’s recent summary of the State of the Union Address reveals the fatal flaw in his way of thinking that many on the left subscribe to whether they realize it or not. Commenting on President Obama’s desire to force policies without the consent of Congress, Stewart said in jest, “I’m intrigued. And increasingly willing to go against the Constitution and entertain the notion of a two-branch government.”
Stewart may have been joking but his refusal to take seriously the implications of an administration without limits is precisely what blinds him and other liberals from the destruction of their well-intended but ill-fated objectives.
No amount of good intentions excuses the high unemployment, corruption, or insurmountable debt that not only vindicates their critics but exacerbates the inequalities and sufferings of the same Americans they hoped to rescue.
It’s becoming increasingly difficult for the left to reconcile its ostensible disdain for the elite, while turning to them for salvation. Stewart’s misgivings are an example of this. While I respect him as a journalist for posing questions mainstream anchors refuse to touch; as to why Stewart expects solutions from what he admits is the source of the problem, that’s apparently a question he’s not ready to ask. | positive |

BEIJING (AP) — Work is underway on China’s second railway line to Tibet that will wind through some of the world’s most mountainous and inhospitable territory and likely take the better part of a decade to complete, state media said Wednesday.
Work at the line’s two ends in Chengdu, the capital of Sichuan province, and Tibet’s capital of Lhasa has already begun, the official Xinhua News Agency reported.
Other feasibility studies have been completed, but the most difficult section, through the mountains from Kangding in Sichuan to Nyingchi in Tibet, is still being designed and may take seven years to finish once construction begins, Xinhua said.
Once completed, the line will run for 1,700 kilometers (1,060 miles), 80 percent of it consisting of tunnels and bridges. Total cost is estimated at 250 billion yuan ($37 billion), while the travel time from Chengdu to Lhasa will be cut from 48 to about 13 hours, Xinhua said.
Likening it to a roller coaster, designers said the line will traverse eight ascents and descents, topping out at 4,400 meters (14,400 feet), Xinhua said. Varying terrain, landslides and earthquakes are also major threats.
“It will be the most difficult super project in railway construction history,” Xia Lie, a senior engineer at China Railway Eryuan Engineering Group, was quoted as saying.
The line is the latest in a seemingly endless series of hugely ambitious construction projects that include the gargantuan Three Gorges Dam, the world’s longest bridge over water in Jiaozhou Bay and the world’s most extensive high-speed rail network.
China opened an initial line to Lhasa from Qinghai province to the northeast in 2006 that runs for 1,956 kilometers (1,215 miles) and tops out at about 4,000 meters (13,000 feet). | positive |

The News From N.O.A.A. | Pat Neal Wildlife Pat Neal Wildlife Explore the Wild Olympic Peninsula Main menu Skip to content Home About Pat Books Olympic Peninsula Timeline Facebook Blog Post navigation ← Previous Next → The News From N.O.A.A. Posted on June 16, 2021 by admin It was another tough week in the news. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration threatened further restrictions on salmon fishing from California north to the Canadian border. These new proposals are the result of NOAA conducting a risk assessment under the Endangered Species Act. They evaluated the impact of fisheries on West Coast chinook salmon abundance and its effect on the designated critical habitat of the endangered southern resident orca of Puget Sound. Recent research has revealed where and when the orca forage and their preferred prey. Studies have shown their summer diet in inland waters consists primarily of chinook salmon. Despite the increasing rarity of this species, chinook compose 50 percent of the orca diet in the fall, increasing to 70-80 percent in winter and increasing still more to 100 percent of their diet in the spring. Insufficient prey has been identified as a limiting factor in orca recovery. To ensure the orca have enough chinook salmon, NOAA has proposed limiting commercial and recreational fishing when chinook numbers fall below a certain level of abundance that would provide prey for the orca. While removing the Snake River dams to increase chinook salmon for the orca is not entirely off the negotiating table, it might as well be. We need look no further than the Elwha for perspective. Our local $350 million Elwha Dam removal experiment has stalled in the attempt to produce the projected 400,000 salmon this environmentalist pipe dream foretold. The estimated $1 billion spent on salmon restoration in Washington in the last 20 years has been largely squandered on grant-sucking, make-work projects, gratuitous research and public education that attempts to spin this failure into a plea for more money. Attempts to increase hatchery production of chinook salmon for the orca have been hamstrung by environmentalist attorneys who sue the state to shut down fish hatcheries under the misguided assumption that, after 100 years of fish hatcheries, hatchery fish and their feral progeny that make up our so-called wild fish populations are somehow different species. Meanwhile, the western United States is experiencing the worst drought in the last 1,200 years. For the first time in 114 years, the canal that sends Klamath River water to irrigate 150,000 acres of farms in Oregon and California will stay completely dry this summer — which has ignited protests from armed, right-wing activists who are threatening to take control of the irrigation canals. So, it is no wonder NOAA wants to stop us from fishing for chinook salmon. It is a simple solution to a complex problem. For example, an April 18 Peninsula Daily News article revealed that the recreational fisheries chinook quota “along the entire Washington coast” was 26,360 fish last year. Meanwhile, in the same year the Alaska trawler fleet had an eerily familiar bycatch of 26,000 chinook salmon. These fish, which are celebrated every spring in Seattle for $75 a pound, cannot be sold. They are donated or thrown overboard. Trawlers drag huge nets through the water indiscriminately killing everything in their path in a process known as strip mining the ocean. The trawlers are targeting pollock used in making fake crab meat and the McDonalds Filet-O-Fish sandwich, a favorite inexpensive meal of humans. McDonald’s is able to keep its price on the fish sandwich low by keeping the wages of their workers so low that they qualify for government-sponsored benefits, such as Medicaid and Food Stamps. While NOAA turns a blind eye to the trawler bycatch to bolster the federal policy of subsidizing the fast-food industry, it will stop us from catching salmon to eat. Have a nice day.

As Harvey Dent is the hero Gotham deserves, but not the one it needs, what does Aaron Eckhart, who played Two-Face for Christopher Nolan in Batman: The Dark Knight, feel about the Joker reboot in Suicide Squad?
The latest issue of Total Film magazine catches up with Aaron Eckhart and asks his thoughts on the Jared Leto Joker compared to the Heath Ledger Joker.
"No," Eckhart responded when asked if he has seen Suicide Squad. "I didn't know there was a Joker in Suicide Squad. Actually, I saw Jared Leto's make-up. Is he the Joker? I thought it was unlike Heath's. Heath did the genius thing of making his make-up home-grown. That's out-of-the-box thinking, and it's so effective."
Aaron Eckhart continues with a hint he would tip his hat in favor of Heath Ledger, which only makes sense.
"I haven't seen Suicide Squad. My experience is my experience for Batman," Eckhart said. "I don't compare it to anything or [my Two-Face] to Tommy Lee Jones'. It just doesn't matter to me. I was with Heath and everybody else. I had that experience with Chris [Nolan]. I never thought I'd be in Batman, but you know, Heath did something that nobody else did. You can try to intimidate..." | positive |

Music data company Senzari has launched MusicGraph, a new service for discovering music by searching through graph of over a billion music-related data points.
MusicGraph includes a consumer-facing version and an API that can be used for commercial purposes. Senzari built the graph while working on the recommendation engine for its own streaming service, which has been rebranded as Wahwah.
Interestingly, MusicGraph is launching first on Firefox OS before coming to iOS, Android and Windows Phone in “the coming weeks.”
The app allows for natural language queries while sifting through data. The concept is similar to Facebook’s Graph Search but with a deep focus on the music industry. Senzari says you can run searches like “Artists who were influenced by the Beatles that my friends like.”
The app can also hone in on particular demographic recommendations by taking age group and gender into account. Searches can connect songs based on tempo, key and even chord progressions.
Once you’ve found music you like, you can export playlists from the MusicGraph app to Rdio, LastFM, Spotify or YouTube.
Senzari’s API includes a free non-commercial version that offers 150 calls per minute. Commercial packages start at $499 a month. Developers will have access to a playlist generator, graph search and data.

The finding that the gene has so many effects raises the question of which one was the dominant trigger for natural selection.
Dr. Sabeti said the extra sweat glands could have been the feature favored by natural selection, with all the other effects being dragged along in its train.
“We’re the only mammals to have changed their entire hair pattern. So the changes in teeth, hair and breasts — it’s very possible they are the passengers and thermoregulation is the key,” she said, referring to the role of sweat glands in cooling the body.
East Asians are sometimes assumed to have evolved in a cold environment because of their narrow nostrils, which conserve heat, and the extra eyelid fat that insulates the eye. But the Broad team calculates that the EDAR variant arose about 35,000 years ago in central China and that the region was then quite warm and humid. Extra sweat glands would have been advantageous to the hunter-gatherers who lived at that time.
But Joshua Akey, a geneticist at the University of Washington in Seattle, said he thought the more likely cause of the gene’s spread among East Asians was sexual selection. Thick hair and small breasts are visible sexual signals which, if preferred by men, could quickly become more common as the carriers had more children. The genes underlying conspicuous traits, like blue eyes and blond hair in Europeans, have very strong signals of selection, Dr. Akey said, and the sexually visible effects of EDAR are likely to have been stronger drivers of natural selection than sweat glands.
Yet a third view is held by Dr. Kamberov, who believes that each of the effects of the EDAR variant may have been favored by natural selection at a different time. A series of selections on different traits thus made the variant version so common among East Asians. About 93 percent of Han Chinese carry the variant, as do about 70 percent of people in Japan and Thailand, and 60 to 90 percent of American Indians, a population descended from East Asians. | positive |

Maribor Development Agency, the lead partner of project INTRA (programme Interreg Europe) proposed changes to the OP for implementation of the EU Cohesion Policy 2014-2020 in East Slovenia. As the result, the Ministry for Economic Development and Technology of the Republic of Slovenia prepared the Internationalisation vouchers. CEO of Petlja, mr. Branko Rojs said: “Thanks to vouchers we were able to present our products at the Anuga fair, where we established over 800 contacts. 7 of them turned into business cooperation, which enabled us to enter new markets – including Korea!.” Petlja is a production and trade company that was established in Ptuj in 1990. They are a representative of renowned European producers of food and drinks for Slovene region and partly for former Yugoslavian region. As a distributor of food and beverages, they are both importing and exporting, thus internationalisation is at the core of their business. For the Slovene market, they deal in production, marketing, distribution and acquiring high quality exclusive import programmes of food and drinks from renowned foreign suppliers. For foreign markets, they distribute Slovenian products abroad. However, Petlja also has its own brands, which it distributes both on the domestic and foreign market. In 2019 Petlja applied for a voucher for group participation of Slovenian economy at fairs abroad in the total worth of 1.714,78, to participate at the Anuga fair – one of the biggest and more important fairs for food and beverages. At the fair they established over 800 contacts, however, there were only about 150 follow up activities. Out of those, only 7 resulted in business cooperation. Still, Petlja does not complain, as one of them opened the door to the Korean market, where they have started distributing the Slovenian brand Viki krema!

The 2021 Youth Parliament program is taking place in January following its postponement from July 2021 due to Stay at Home Orders. Since its inception in 2002, the Youth Parliament has become a much-loved event and platform for young people in NSW to have their voices heard and discuss issues that are important to them and their peers. The Opening Ceremony featured a line-up of special guest speakers including: Zoë Robinson, the NSW Advocate for Children and Young People Chris Minns MP, NSW Leader of the Opposition Susannah Le Bron, Y NSW Chief Executive Officer and the Y’s National Advocate for Youth Employment The 2021 program is being held online due to the current situation with the Covid-19 pandemic. Ms Robinson said that the voices of young people in the public sphere are not only necessary, but important. “People in government, business and all organisations that serve you, need to hear from you more, we need to understand and genuinely implement policy and practices that serve you best,” she told participants at the opening ceremony. Running across five days, the Youth Parliament program will include more than 10 debates with participating MPs on key issues including environmental protection, Aboriginal affairs, women’s affairs and health, the Covid-19 response, education, mental health, and diversity and inclusion. Y NSW CEO, Susannah Le Bron, said that despite the setbacks of having to move the event online due to the pandemic, the Y was excited to bring together a wonderful bunch of inspirational students for this year’s program. “Youth Parliament is one of the greatest things the Y NSW does all year,” Ms Le Bron said. “It’s been running for 19 years now and we are very much looking forward to the lively debates and decision making that will no doubt take place over the course of the week. “Approximately six pieces of the Y NSW Youth Parliament youth legislation have been passed into NSW Law, since the program’s inception and we are excited to be welcoming this cohort of Australia’s future leaders to Youth Parliament.” Youth Premier, 16-year-old Indigo Lee-Wilson from Ascham School said: “Youth Parliament is unique, not only in the way it teaches us the way parliament works, but it brings in young people from all over the state to create a group that is diverse and who have different experiences that help us truly represent NSW. “It’s really inspirational to have a wide variety of people and opinions because it really helps us address the nuances of every single issue, which is so important because we often see people excluded from political conversations and decisions.” Youth Parliament will run from today until this Friday, culminating in the announcement of the Youth Governor for 2022.

Wow, everybody is such a pessimist around here. The answer is yes.
It ain't trivial: by the end, we'll have the core function, a supporting struct, a wrapper function, and a macro around the wrapper function. In my work I have a set of macros to automate all this; once you understand the flow it'll be easy for you to do the same.
I've written this up elsewhere, so here's a detailed external link to supplement the summary here: http://modelingwithdata.org/arch/00000022.htm
We'd like to turn
double f(int i, double x)
into a function that takes defaults (i=8, x=3.14). Define a companion struct:
typedef struct { int i; double x; } f_args;
Rename your function f_base , and define a wrapper function that sets defaults and calls the base:
double var_f(f_args in){ int i_out = in.i ? in.i : 8; double x_out = in.x ? in.x : 3.14; return f_base(i_out, x_out); }
Now add a macro, using C's variadic macros. This way users don't have to know they're actually populating a f_args struct and think they're doing the usual:
#define f(...) var_f((f_args){__VA_ARGS__});
OK, now all of the following would work:
f(3, 8); //i=3, x=8 f(.i=1, 2.3); //i=1, x=2.3 f(2); //i=2, x=3.14 f(.x=9.2); //i=8, x=9.2
Check the rules on how compound initializers set defaults for the exact rules.
One thing that won't work: f(0) , because we can't distinguish between a missing value and zero. In my experience, this is something to watch out for, but can be taken care of as the need arises---half the time your default really is zero.
I went through the trouble of writing this up because I think named arguments and defaults really do make coding in C easier and even more fun. And C is awesome for being so simple and still having enough there to make all this possible. | positive |
Britain's Prime Minister Theresa May looked increasingly vulnerable Sunday after a humiliating election left many members of her own Conservative Party reportedly plotting to force her out.
The U.K.'s influential Sunday newspapers led with turmoil at the top of the party just days ahead of high-stakes and vitally important Brexit talks with the European Union.
"In office, but not in power," read The Telegraph. "May's premiership in peril," wrote The Observer. "Down and Out?" asked The Sunday Times.
The Conservatives won 318 seats in the election, eight short of an outright majority. When Theresa May announced the so-called snap election in April in order to strengthen her hand in Brexit talks, the Conservatives held 331 seats and led the Labour Party by some 20 points in the polls.
May has spoken to Northern Ireland's tiny Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) with whom the prime minister is trying to craft an agreement, according to a statement from the prime minister's office.
More from NBC News:
What is the Democratic Unionist Party (DUP)?
Socialist Jeremy Corbyn Throws British Politics Into Chaos
London Bridge Attack: Police Officer Describes Chaos After Rampage
Prime ministers are not voted on directly and instead the leader of the party that wins the most seats in Parliament gets the first chance to form a new government.
Nicky Morgan, a senior Conservative legislator, said she would oppose a formal coalition pact with the ultra-conservative DUP for fear it would force the party to water down the Conservatives' "equalities policies." The DUP is anti-gay marriage, opposes abortion and has a track record of denying man-made climate change.
In an interview with NBC News' British partner ITV News, Morgan refused to say if the prime minister would have to go but said May could not lead the Conservatives into another general election.
"If we're going to have a leadership contest in the Conservative Party what we cannot do is have another coronation," she said, referring to May's leadership, which was not put to the members of the Conservative Party and instead was only voted on by the party's lawmakers.
Anna Soubry, another senior Conservative politician, told the BBC Friday that May should "consider her position."
Inside May's official residence the turmoil was thinly veiled.
Fiona Hill and Nick Timothy, the prime minister's divisive chiefs of staff, resigned Saturday after what one commentator described as the worst Conservative campaign since the Napoleonic Wars of the early 19th century.
Former Conservative Treasury minister George Osborne told the BBC that May was a "dead woman walking."
Stepping in to defend the prime minister, Defense Secretary Michael Fallon said Osborne — who was fired by May and has since resigned as a lawmaker to edit The London Evening Standard — was "enjoying his job as commentator rather than a player on the pitch."
Meanwhile rumors swirled that the maverick Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson was being lined up to mount a leadership bid as The Observer and The Sunday Telegraph reported that a Conservative rebellion was afoot.
Johnson denied he is considering a leadership challenge, tweeting Saturday that the rumors were "tripe."
The Conservatives are known for their ruthless leadership campaigns and it was only last year that Johnson and former Justice Secretary Michael Gove vied for power in a bitter battle.
As usual in British politics, legendary wartime Prime Minister Winston Churchill was evoked: "The loyalties which center upon [the leader] are enormous…" he wrote, but "if he is no good, he must be poleaxed."
On Sunday, May was seen arriving at church with her husband Philip May in her home village some 40 miles west of London.
Back in the capital, Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn appeared on the BBC's flagship Sunday politics show where he described the election as "an incredibly good result."
Labour won 262 seats — many more than many expected.
Corbyn added that he thought there would be another election this year.
Labour's tally, even when added to those of potential allies such as the Scottish National Party and other smaller parties, was still short of a majority.
Shadow Treasury Secretary John McDonnell — in essence Corbyn's second-in-command — told ITV News the Conservative party ruling with the DUP would be a "coalition of chaos" adding that he thought another election was "inevitable." | positive |

The holidays can be incredibly stressful – cooking, shopping, decorating and, well, family.
Add to it the pets underfoot and your children complaining that they want to play on the Wii when grandpa wants to watch the Law and Order marathon on USA, and you have potential for a grumpy household.
So we decided to take a look at the projects here on Sourceforge that could help keep your children occupied over the holidays.
Whether you’re on Windows, Mac or Linux, there are many options. Something here is bound to be attractive to your kids and keep them interested for a while.
Teach Your Children Well
As the mother of a kindergartner, I loved Tux of Math Command. It’s a form of one of my childhood favorites, Missile Command, where you answer math problems to prevent them from melting the igloos of penguins on the ground. I called my 5-year-old over to check it out and he got very excited, trying to add the numbers together as fast as his brain would allow, to save the penguins’ homes.
Scrabble is always a good one to broaden your vocabulary. Scrabble3D allows you to play against your computer or against others on the game server. It’s only Windows and Linux at the moment, but has an experimental Mac OSX version. The board is configurable and it’s available in several languages, including Irish Gaelic and Swedish.
Another old standby, Yahtzee, is still popular in its original and all the iterations out there, free, paid, social and open source. Open Yahtzee can be used to calculate odds, work on addition and even simple number recognition for the youngest ones.
My boys love mazes. They enjoy figuring out where to go and how to get there. FunLabyrinthe gives them mazes to navigate and also enables them to create their own mazes. It’s Windows only, though.
Race into Space can help give your children a healthy interest in history, politics and science. Granted, though the original this version was based on was said to be suitable for children as young as 10, it’s been criticized as being far too difficult. But if you tell your teens that maybe they shouldn’t play it because it’s too hard for them, I’d wager they’d figure it out pretty quickly.
Stimulating Simulations
FlightGear is a very cool flight simulator, available in multiple platforms, including a separate Mac OSX version. There are a couple dozen related projects on Sourceforge, including GUIs for launchers and flight planners. Airplane options include seaplanes, warplanes and small craft. You can “fly around the world from the comfort of your computer,” the project suggests. Good for those who are afraid of heights, perhaps.
SimuTrans is a SimCity-type transportation game. You can build networks of railroads, monorails, roadways and airports and move cargo and passengers around the world. A variety of packs help you create different settings and styles.
Rigs of Rods evoked Minecraft a bit, albeit an already constructed world with no creepers. It’s a bit complicated to get started on, but once you figure it out, you can drive trucks and cars, sail boats and fly airplanes, among other vehicles. Figuring it out is half the fun.
• VDrift is your requisite racing simulator. The 40 tracks are based on real tracks from around the world, as are the 40 cars. You can plug in a wheel or joystick and the physics of driving in real life apply in the game. Vroom.
Holiday Adventure
Arianne RPG could be a great challenge for your older children. If they like playing RPGs, let them take that one step further and actually create their own. Arianne is the engine that drives Stendhal and can be used to create any MORPG. Why just play when you can create? That should be good for a few hours of quiet time.
Java Settlers of Catan and Pioneers are both computer-based versions of Settlers of Catan. Both allow over-the-internet play and emulate the board game in its look and feel. If your children are Catan fans at all, download these puppies and you’ll have some very happy kids in your house.
Let’s Go to the Arcade
Battle Tanks is your typical side-scrolling arcade game. It has multiplayer/split-screen modes and lets you shoot ’em up. In a tank.
Super Tux Kart is a great replacement for Mario Kart games. And if you have younger children, the option to drive a penguin around instead of Mario or Luigi might be even more fun. I’ll be setting this one up for my boys, believe you me.
If fighting games like Streets of Rage are more your kid’s cup of tea, then Paintown could be a good option. And after your in-laws leave, you can hop on the computer and exorcise your frustrations by beating the crap out of someone made out of pixels rather than flesh and blood.
And finally, what arcade would be complete without a shoot-em-up game – in space? Galaxy Forces V2 is a 2D space shooter. There are single- and multi-player options and you can complete missions or just dogfight. Its simplicity reminds me a bit of Asteroids (no, it’s not THAT simple) and it has downloads for Windows and Linux.
There are many other games for all ages on SourceForge, and if none of these float your boat, you can start your search in the Games index. One of these just may be your sanity-saver over this holiday season.
And for the price of free, you can’t beat that. | positive |
New Year’s Reflections | Speakfaithfully Speakfaithfully This is where I share my unfiltered thoughts about life and faith. Skip to content Home About ← Why do we believe…that Christian discipline stops at focusing on external righteousness, can be done outside of relationship, or is not to be engaged in at all? 2010 in review (From WordPress) → New Year’s Reflections Posted on January 1, 2011 by Speakfaithfully My jet lag induced insomnia is not letting me sleep and for the first time in several weeks the only sound I am hearing is the keystrokes on my keyboard. I have decided to recap 2010 as best I can. Noting lessons learned and questions left unanswered and simple observations in no particular order. I can sum up 2010 in one word: crucible. A crucible was a device used to smelt and purify ore. Crucibles and crucible experiences have become a literary metaphor referring to any trying time that is formative. And that is exactly what 2010 was. A trying time that was formative. 2010 was a year of extremes. Extremes that almost broke me. I was madly in love and experienced heartbreak so profound I wanted to die. I felt the closeness of a God that redeems my sin and felt abandoned by God in my darkest hours. I have had months of clean time and binged. I have enjoyed the warmth of community and I have felt completely alone. These extremes tested my limits, burned out a lot of impurities and hurt like hell. In counseling I once said hopefully that my world has shrunk and gotten a lot smaller. He commented that while most people mean that in a negative way he knew what I meant. I let go of a lot of things that did not matter, and others were taken away. All of them were holding me back. Like sandbags on a hot air balloon they were excess baggage that needed to go for me to lift off. I went through incredible pain this year, often feeling very distant from God. A pastor at Christian Assembly preached a sermon highlighting the worst parts of King David’s life. His whole point was that sometimes God brings you to a place where all you have is Him so that you know all you need is Him. I definitely was in a place where many things important to my life were being stripped away and I felt the void left by them But for me I did not feel God’s presence or known His redemption of any of the pain. From this I learned that I am a survivor, despite the hard work and pain that was before me and around me I have kept going, and I believe this is an admirable quality about myself. I do not give up. Even though I have dealt with much pain for the most part in isolation I made a decision as a young man that suicide was not the answer. Even in my most defeated states, I continue. Life doesn’t just go on, life does not just happen…I go on, I persevere and endure. Like Drake says, in Thank me Later, “I’m in it till its over.” I think God might have been absent or silent at times to get me to start believing and trusting in myself. By saying I am a survivor I do not mean to suggest that I do not need God, but I still very much struggle with self-hate. The Church’s call to be selfless came to early for me, before any sort of self was formed, and just served to reinforce the dysfunctional rules I learned in my home. Besides, if I am resilient, I was made so by God possibly through the very trials I often question. I am afraid of success. I fear success because I feel a lot more comfortable and familiar with failing and because I believe if I succeed I will always have to maintain that level of success. I am way too hard on myself. I have impossibly high standards for myself that make it impossible to enjoy life. I am way too serious. Some of this is just due to the content of my life. Other times it is an unhealthy dwelling on everything all the time. Sometimes I think my theme song is “No Joy in Mudville” by Deathcab. I need to compartmentalize (not deny or minimize) some of my junk so that I can live the rest of my life. I am a 26 year old college educated handsome adult male born into incredible wealth. I’m in the prime of my life and need to live like it. I am self-destructive when I cannot healthily express anger. (More about this later) I struggle receiving love. I am surrounded, and have been surrounded, by many loving people. It is my character defects, my fear of relationships, and my patterns of withdrawal that prevent me from receiving a lot of the love available to me. Instead of dealing with this I have historically blamed other people for being unloving, especially Christians. I am sorry. I have realized I am a man of paradox. I am a Christian who has tried to build his life around God at the same time as he struggles with faith. I am a resilient man whose smallest failures make him crumble in self-hate. I used to think I was lying if I said anything good about myself or was being to hard on myself if I noted anything that needed work. In reality I, like any human being who has ever walked this Earth, has bad parts and good parts. I just tend to have them in the extremes. I am figuring out how to engage in relationships in a healthy and sane way. De facto lessons learned by people who grew up in healthier families are just now dawning on me as I have come to realize how relationships worked in my family of origin is not how relationships work in the real world. I think I also lost my faith. No, what I should say is that I have been for the first time widely honest about the nature and extent of my struggle with faith. To suggest I had lost my faith would mean that at one time I truly had it. I was pretending. Sorry. I hope in 2011 I can come back to a place of a meaningful relationship with God. I think this will most likely happen through SAA, not through Christians or Church. If it could happen through Christians or Church it would have happened a long time ago. I can sum up in 2010 in one song: Sensible Heart by City and Colour and I’ll close with its lyrics. I get so distracted By some peoples reactions That I don’t see my own faults For what they are For what they are At times so self destructive With no intent or motive But behind this emotion, There lies a sensible heart A sensible heart See I’m no king I wear no crown But desperate times Seem over now But still I weaken somehow It tears me apart It tears me apart I hope to learn as time goes by That I should trust what’s deep inside Burning bright, oh burning bright My sensible heart My sensible heart My sensible heart My sensible heart Share this: Twitter Facebook Like this: Like Loading...

Winx makes it 18 straight wins with Warwick Stakes thriller at Royal Randwick
Updated
Sorry, this video has expired Video: Winx makes it 18 wins in a row with dramatic victory in Warwick Stakes (ABC News)
Winx has produced a storming finish to record her 18th consecutive victory with a dramatic win in the Warwick Stakes at Royal Randwick.
The mare, making her first appearance since winning the Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Randwick in April, was made to work for her latest triumph after missing the start by four lengths.
Winx, ridden by Hugh Bowman, was last and about six lengths from the front when the field entered the straight but found the sprint when required to pip stablemate Foxplay at the line to win the Group Two race over 1,400 metres.
In front of a crowd used to cheering her home down the straight, there was silence as Winx made her move and finally wore down Foxplay to score by a mere half neck.
The trouble started at the barriers when a fractious Winx missed the jump.
Trainer Chris Waller prepared himself for an upset but Bowman did not panic, easing the mare onto the back of the field then bringing her wide around the turn.
She responded like the champion she is. As she left the gate she knocked the timing device out of her saddle cloth but with Foxplay running 32.42 seconds for her last 600m, Winx obviously ran faster with one data company clocking her at 31.88.
Bowman admitted he had some concerns but also a wealth of confidence even though at 1,400m, he did not have much time to get her to the line.
"She's just so much better than them and I had to rely on that to win the race," Bowman said.
"I was thinking it could be mathematically impossible to catch them but there was nothing I could do about that I just had to rely on the engine that I know is in her.
"I want her to win as much as anyone else but after what happened coming out of the barriers I had to renegotiate where I was obviously, and it was a concern halfway through but it was a good feeling the last 200 metres.
"I'm proud of her and I'm proud of everyone involved with her. It's been such an amazing journey for all of us and judging on what we saw this afternoon we might be in for a few good runs yet."
Waller admits Winx was feeling 'jittery'
If the crowd was on edge, so was Winx.
"She was a bit jittery being first-up," Waller said.
"She will tighten up from that. They can't win all the time and I don't want to be making excuses if she gets beaten. Foxplay was really good. They are mates. They do everything together and she is in for a good spring."
The race was named for Bob Ingham, the father of Winx's part owner Debbie Kepitis who was prepared for the worst.
"Even if she had been beaten, she still would have been a champion," she said.
"And it is extra special that she has won the race named in honour of my father."
Waller said despite the close call, Winx's program would not be changed and she would head to the Group Two Chelmsford Stakes (1,600m) in two weeks.
