China IPR – Intellectual Property Developments in China
China: patents, trademarks, copyright, infringement, piracy, innovation policies
2018/04/01 by Mark Cohen (柯恒)
Beijing IP Court Rules on Copyright Protection for Sports Broadcasts
According to a recent posting on the Weixin account of IPHouse (结案信息 ┃ 北京知识产权法院审结涉及体育赛事节目的两起著作权侵权纠纷案, March 30, 2018), the Beijing IP Court has now decided the second instance appeals of two cases involving online piracy of sports broadcasts, an issue that is important to the development of China's professional sports, as well as Olympic broadcasters and foreign leagues with large Chinese audiences, such as the National Basketball Association.
Most Chinese academics have been in agreement that live broadcasts (including webcasts) of professional sports broadcasts need to have some form of IP-related protection, whether under the Anti-unfair Competition Law, as a subject of the Copyright Law, or as a form of "neighboring rights" under China's Europe-inspired copyright system. During the 2008 Beijing Olympics, the broadcasts of the Olympic games also enjoyed a form of sui generis protection against piracy – an issue that I had been involved with along with rightsholders at that time. The controversies surrounding the consequences of each form of possible protection were detailed in an article in 2010 by Prof. Seagull Song, as well as a more article by Wei Liu and Jiarui Liu ("Copyright Protection of Sports Programs in China," 63 Journal of the Copyright Society of the USA (2017)). It has also been the subject of meetings and conferences hosted by the United States and others, experts dialogues and numerous blogs posted here, including a blog on the lower court case posted on here.
Copyright protection would afford address interactive streaming over the internet, while neighboring rights protection affords rights to broadcasters. Many believed that unfair competition was too vague and could create difficulties in licensing internationally. These issues were raised in the context of the long-overdue, proposed amendments to China's Copyright Law. For these reasons, the 2013 US-China Experts Dialogue, in particular, made the following recommendation:
"4.3 Live Sports Programming and Non-interactive Streaming
The experts unanimously agreed that when the production of live sports programming involves creativity and originality, it shall be protected under current China Copyright Law. The experts supported the provisions of the latest available amendment of the Copyright Law which provides a bifurcated approach – the adoption of "broadcast rights" to give protection to non-interactive streaming media and the right of communication through information networks to protect interactive streaming media. This approach should provide greater flexibility and depth to the protection of the copyright."
Delays in resolving these two cases were understandable in light of the uncertainty around the proposed amendments to the copyright law, the significance of these issues to numerous rightsholders and sporting events, the increasing importance of licensing revenue in the China market using international copyright standards, the impact on Chinese rightsholders that may be pursuing cases overseas where copyright protection is more secure, and the role of copyright protection in providing a foundation for a diversity of revenue streams in order to provide greater stability to the beneficiaries of the system (see the "Jordan" store that has recently opened up in Beijing, above).
In the Sina case, which was the subject of my previous blog, the lower court had determined after some exhaustive analysis that the live broadcast of a sporting event constituted a cinematographic "work" under China's copyright law. The Beijing High Court reversed noting that cinematographic works have to be fixed/stable and creative. In the case in suit, the production had not been stable and fixed in a material form and therefore did not constitute a cinematographic work. Moreover, as Sina did not pursue the anti-unfair competition claim on appeal, the Court had no basis to adjudicate that claim to provide an alternative avenue of relief for it.

s of the Brazilian World Cup (2014), CCTV had advocated that the broadcast constituted either a cinematographic work or an audiovisual recording (entitled to neighboring rights protection). The lower court had determined that it was entitled to be considered an AV recording and had awarded 670,000 RMB in damages. The Beijing IP Court confirmed that it was also entitled to protection as an AV recording which is protected over information networks in part because it was stable and fixed on a physical medium and, as with the prior case, it was not sufficiently creative to be a cinematographic work. The court however increased the damage award to 4,000,000 RMB.
Based on this summary, the cases seem to leave open the question of whether AV recording protection afforded as a "neighboring right" to a broadcaster, also permits the broadcast to claim infringement for a live/interactive retransmission of the broadcast over the internet, which was not a fact at issue in this case. Broadcasting organizations do enjoy neighboring rights protection under Article 44 of the Copyright Law. However, this neighboring rights protection most directly addresses wired and wireless retransmission of the signal, rather than interactive communication over the Internet (See article by Seagull Song, and quote above). Moreover, this was exactly the problem that was faced by the Beijing Copyright Administration in the 2008 Olympics when it enacted short-term, sui generis rules to address this problem. I hope that the full case will explain this further.
Article 41 of the PRC Copyright Law grants the owner of video recordings the right to distribute the recordings over an information network. The court could have resolved the issue of the stability/fixation of the broadcasts in both cases by acknowledging any momentary delay in broadcasting and consequent fixation in real time broadcasting as a "recording" (see video of editing at an NFL game, below). Moreover, the level of creativity being required of a cinematographic work seems unduly high, particularly when compared to comparably lower levels of creativity required of photographic works, as well as the professional editing, narration and script line that goes into any professional broadcast, along with the copyright attributable to various elements of the broadcast, such as the narration, mid-game performances, etc. Thus, these cases do not fully address protection for the less controversial creative aspects of professional sports broadcasts. Due to the temporal value of a live sports broadcast, it is also important that rights are clearly defined in advance, a task for which local case law developments are ill-suited under China's system, and that must apparently wait until legislative reform. The Beijing IP Court did use the tool of enhancing damages to help address the need for greater deterrence, however it appears on the substance of copyrightability, its hands were tied by current legislation.
I welcome any further analyses, and postings of the Chinese and/or English texts of the case that may help further clarify these decisions and their impact.

One thought on "Beijing IP Court Rules on Copyright Protection for Sports Broadcasts"
Chungho (@agreatpork) says:
Hi, I am a IP LAW master student. I am writing on a essay comparing EU and China sports streaming issue. Do you think the abusive online infringement would be improve if there are more advanced harmonization international treaty (like WIPO 2.0) on steaming sport?

Talk of banning gas stoves is fueling the flames
John Marshall and Jessica Lu, Potential Energy. Medium
Research & Articles Natural Gas Messaging Persuasion Polling & Surveys Climate Policy Energy Policy
It's better to prioritize policies and messaging to "make our future housing stock cleaner, healthier and safer and electrify our lives with abundance," rather than banning gas stoves, which makes people think of sacrifice and should be avoided. Further, in telling a political narrative about the issue, blame the producer, not the consumer. It's also important to remember that while we need to transition off dependence on gas heating and gas use in homes, changing home cooking will accomplish a tiny portion of our carbon pollution goal—it shouldn't become the centerpiece of climate messaging.

This post includes climate and environment headlines, data points, and key takeaways from recent public polls - including national polling about climate change and its impacts, national polling about extreme weather and congressional action on climate change, and new polling in New York State about the proposed end of gas hookups in new construction projects.
Voters Support New York's Proposal to End Fossil Fuels in New Construction
Sabrina Jacobs and Kevin Hanley. Data for Progress
Research & Articles Natural Gas Messaging Persuasion Polling & Surveys New York Climate Policy Energy Policy
Most New York State voters support the end of gas in new construction projects. 66% of New York State voters support ending gas in new construction projects (including 85% of Democrats and 43% of Republicans). Fewer than 50% of New Yorkers believe their political leaders have done enough to address climate change. More New Yorkers are concerned about "the cost of home energy bills" (85%) than "climate change" (74%) or "the air quality in their residence" (55%).
Voters Say Lawmakers Should Listen to Communities Over Fossil Fuel Interests
Dana Johnson and Julia Jeanty. Data for Progress
Research & Articles Natural Gas Oil Messaging Persuasion Frontline Communities Environmental/Climate Justice Polling & Surveys Energy Policy
Environmental advocates can strengthen their argument on permitting reform by framing it as an issue of communities vs. corporate interests. Voters overwhelmingly believe that input from impacted communities should be prioritized over input from industry association groups as Congress considers changes to the permitting process for energy projects. Voters support the Environmental Justice for All Act by a greater than three-to-one margin (69% support / 20% oppose) after reading a brief description of it. By a 65%-22% margin, voters prefer that lawmakers prioritize feedback from impacted communities over industry association groups like the American Petroleum Institute when considering changes to the permitting process. By a 56%-35% margin, voters say that President Biden should prioritize permitting for clean energy projects over fossil fuel projects. Just 16% of voters believe that permitting reform should be attached to the annual government spending bill, compared to 59% who say it should be considered as a standalone bill and 10% who say it shouldn't be considered at all.

for the industry. We face the challenge of managing "compassionate destruction," in which we guide all the complex and expansive elements of the fossil-fuel sector through a just and orderly transition to a carbon-free economy. Bring about the end of the entire sector through corporate collaboration. Protect workers and avoid labor flight during transition. Overcome political and social resistance to change. Account for the full scope of the financial impact of the transition. Control the fate of products both used and unused. Protect indirect workers in related industries. Maintain justice and equity for all communities. Decommission, remediate, and repurpose dedicated infrastructure. Leverage the power of government. Overhaul business education as if people and the planet really matter.

Historic Environmental Justice Victory: City of Los Angeles is creating a pathway to phase out existing oil and gas wells

Residents, community organizations, and health care practitioners organized for over a decade to protect the health of residents on the front lines of urban oil extraction in L.A. In January 2022, the Los Angeles City Council voted unanimously to draft an ordinance to prohibit all new oil and gas drilling and to phase out existing drilling operations throughout the City of Los Angeles. This resource is based on an interview with Wendy Miranda (she/they), a community leader with Communities for a Better Environment (CBE) and resident, about the historic victory. The organizing strategy to get this victory involved various lobbying efforts, rallies, press conferences, petition collections, a wide range of community/organization endorsements, phone banking, and social media outreach. Overall, frontline residents providing public comments and sharing their personal experiences were some of the strongest and most powerful tactics. STAND L.A. will continue to be part of the process to help draft an ordinance and direct the City of Los Angeles on how to lead a genuine community participation process. Miranda shares that this victory is proof that frontline communities can lead the change toward a just, equitable transition to a clean energy future.

Research & Articles Natural Gas Oil Solar Wind Messaging Persuasion Polling & Surveys Texas Climate Policy Energy Policy
Texas voters view the clean energy transition as a net positive for the state economy, and most want to see their state leadership strengthen regulations on utilities and fossil fuel companies. 65% of Texans agree that state leaders such as Governor Greg Abbott and Attorney General Ken Paxton didn't do enough to protect consumers with high energy bills following Winter Storm Uri, and two-thirds (67%) believe that the federal government should investigate possible price gouging by power companies during the storm. Additionally, only 35% believe that the Texas state government is doing enough to prepare the state for the impacts of climate change. The clear majority (64%) support more regulations on power companies and oil and gas producers "given the disruptions to the power grid and high energy prices caused by Winter Storm Uri in February 2021." And by a 56%-34% margin, Texans side more with an argument that "regulations on

Flash mobs in Myanmar's biggest city avoid deadly response
- May. 06, 2021 11:58 AM EDT
Anti-coup protesters flash the three-finger salute of defiance during a demonstration on Thursday, May 6, 2021, in Yangon, Myanmar. More than 200 global organizations urged the U.N. Security Council on Wednesday, May 5, 2021, to impose an arms embargo on Myanmar, saying the time for statements has passed and immediate action is needed to help protect peaceful protesters against military rule and other opponents of the junta.

BANGKOK (AP) — A flash mob of mostly young people in Myanmar's biggest city staged a brief protest march Thursday against military rule, the latest in a series of actions aimed at reducing the chances of a deadly response by the authorities.
In the five-minute protest in Yangon, about 70 marchers chanted slogans in support of the civil disobedience movement that opposes February's army coup that ousted the elected government of Aung San Suu Kyi. They then scattered into the downtown crowds.
Protests also took place in other cities and towns including Mandalay, the country's second biggest city, where Buddhist monks marched, and Dawei in the southeast, where the demonstrators included engineers, teachers, university students and members of LGBT groups.
Demonstrators in Dawei tore up and set fire to textbooks as they called for a boycott of schools, which are due to re-open soon after a long shutdown due to the coronavirus pandemic.
In the past week, towns and cities across the country have seen similar protests, some involving primary school students. Campaigners say the education system is poor and should be scrapped. They also want to stop schools from opening to prevent the junta from claiming that normalcy is returning after months of turmoil.
In Yangon in particular, small protests publicized by word of mouth have become popular. They contrast with weeks of confrontations in which security forces increasingly used lethal force, with some militant protesters responding with homemade weapons such as gasoline bombs in self-defense.
In other areas, mass peaceful protests still are being broken up by force, while in some remote areas, groups opposed to the ruling junta have occasionally ambushed security forces, leading to bloody clashes.
According to the Assistance Association for Political Prisoners, which compiles details of arrests and fatalities linked to the junta's crackdown, 769 protesters and bystanders have been killed since February's military takeover. The junta has said the death toll is about one-third of that, and that the use of lethal force was justified to end what it called rioting.
After the military government began using lethal force to suppress demonstrations, protesters in some towns and neighborhoods began organizing themselves into home-grown militias or defense groups.
On Wednesday, the anti-military shadow government formed by elected lawmakers who were barred from taking office by the military announced a plan to unify these local groups into a national "People's Defense Force" which would serve as a precursor to a "Federal Union Army" of democratic forces including ethnic minorities.
The plan was announced by Khin Ma Ma Myo, deputy defense minister of the shadow National Unity Government, which challenges the junta's legitimacy. She said one of the duties of the People's Defense Force is to protect the country's resistance movement from military attacks and violence instigated by the junta.
The National Unity Government has the backing of several major ethnic minority groups who for decades have been seeking greater autonomy and who maintain their own guerrilla forces. The two most important are the Kachin in the north and the Karen in the east, both of which are actively engaged in combat with the government's military forces.

Final Version Jeu de taquin and diamond cone for so(2n+1) JLT (3)
Didier Arnal
Abdelkader Ben Hassine
The diamond cone is a combinatorial description for a basis of a natural indecom-posable n-module, where n is the nilpotent factor of a complex semisimple Lie algebra g. After N. J. Wildberger who introduced this notion, this description was achieved for g = sl(n) , the rank 2 semisimple Lie algebras and g = sp(2n). In this work, we generalize thes...
Jeu de Taquin and Diamond Cone for so(2n+1, C)
The diamond cone is a combinatorial description for a basis of an indecomposable module for the nilpotent factor n of a complex semi-simple Lie algebra. After N. J. Wildberger who introduced this notion, this description was achieved for sl}(n), the rank 2 semi-simple Lie algebras and sp(2n). In this work, we generalize these constructions to the L...
Representations of Simple Hom-Lie algebras
Karima Benali
Abdenacer Makhlouf
The purpose of this paper is to study representations of simple multiplicative Hom-Lie algebras. First, we provide a new proof using Killing form for characterization theorem of simple Hom-Lie algebras given by Chen and Han, then discuss the representations structure of simple multiplicative Hom-Lie algebras. Moreover, we study weight modules and r...
1-Cocycles on the group of contactomorphisms on the supercircle S1|3 generalizing the Schwarzian derivative
Raja Hattab
The relative cohomology Hdiff1(K(1|3), osp(2, 3);Dγ,µ(S1|3)) of the contact Lie superalgebra K(1|3) with coefficients in the space of differential operators Dγ,µ(S1|3) acting on tensor densities on S1|3, is calculated in N.Ben Fraj, I. Laraied, S. Omri (2013) and the generating 1-cocycles are expressed in terms of the infinitesimal super-Schwarzian...
Diamond cone for spo(2m,1)
Maalaoui mohamed ali
In the present paper, we define the diamond cone for the Lie superalgebra spo(2m,1), considering the (covariant) tensor representation of spo(2m,1). The diamond cone is no more indecomposable. Nevertheless, we give a basis for each indecomposable component, using quasistandard Young tableaux for spo(2m,1). We realize a bijection between the set of...
First space cohomology of the orthosymplectic Lie superalgebra $${\mathfrak {osp}}(3|2)$$ osp ( 3 | 2 ) in the Lie superalgebra of superpseudodifferential operators
Basdouri Imed
Nabila Elghomdi
Sarra Hammami
We investigate the first cohomology space associated with the embedding of the Lie Orthosymplectic superalgebra \({\mathfrak {osp}}(3|2)\) on the (1,3)-dimensional superspace \({\mathbb {R}}^{1|3}\) in the Lie superalgebra \({\mathcal {S}}\Psi {\mathcal {DO}}(3)\) of superpseudodifferential operators with smooth coefficients. Following Ovsienko and...

1)so(2n+1). They are given by semistandard and quasistandard tableaux. Then we generalize these constructions to the case of the Lie superalgebra spo(2n,2m+1)spo(2n,2m+1). The main tool is an extension of the Schü...
11-cocycles on the group of contactomorphisms on the supercircles S1|1S1|1 and S1|2S1|2 generalizing the Schwarzian derivative
Oussama Dammak
Sharifian Mansour
We give an explicit construction of the 11-cocycles of the group of contactomorphisms on the supercircle S1|mS1|m for m=1,2, with coefficients in the space of differential operators acting on S1|mS1|m-tensor densities. We show that they satisfy properties similar to those of the super-Schwarzian derivative.
Diamond cone for $\mathfrak{sl}(m,n)$
Olfa Khlifi
In this paper, we first study the shape algebra and the reduced shape algebra for the Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{sl}(m,n)$. We define the quasistandard tableaux, their collection is the diamond cone for $\mathfrak{sl}(m,n)$, which is a combinatorial basis for the reduced shape algebra. We realize a bijection between the set of semistandard tableau...
Diamond module for the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{so}(2n+1,\mathbb C)$
The diamond cone is a combinatorial description for a basis of an indecomposable module for the nilpotent factor $\mathfrak n$ of a semi simple Lie algebra. After N. J. Wildberger who introduced this notion, this description was achevied for $\mathfrak{sl}(n)$, the rank 2 semi-simple Lie algebras and $\mathfrak{sp}(2n)$. In the present work, we gen...
Deforming the Lie superalgebra of contact vector fields on S1|2S1|2
We classify the nontrivial deformations of the standard embedding of the Lie superalgebra K(2) of contact vector fields on the (1,2)-dimensional supercircle into the Lie superalgebra of superpseudodifferential operators on the supercircle. This approach leads to the deformations of the central charge induced on K(2) by the canonical central extensi...
On the Cohomology of the Lie Superalgebra of Contact Vector Fields on S 1|m
The main result of this article is the explicit calculation of the first cohomology space H 1((3), Ψ(S 1|3)) of the Lie superalgebra (3) of contact vector fields on the supercircle S 1|3 with coefficients in the module of superpseudodifferential operators Ψ(S 1|3). For the supercicles of dimensional 1 | 0, 1 | 1, and 1 | 2, the first cohomology spa...
Diamond representations of rank two semisimple Lie algebras
The present work is a part of a larger program to construct explicit combinatorial models for the (indecomposable) regular representation of the nilpotent factor $N$ in the Iwasawa decomposition of a semi-simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$, using the restrictions to $N$ of the simple finite dimensional modules of $\mathfrak g$. Such a description is...
On the Cohomology of the Lie Superalgebra of Contact Vector Fields on $S^{1|2}$
Nizar Ben Fraj
Salem Omri
We investigate the first cohomology space associated with the embedding of the Lie superalgebra $\cK(2)$ of contact vector fields on the (1,2)-dimensional supercircle $S^{1\mid 2}$ in the Lie superalgebra $\cS\Psi \cD \cO(S^{1\mid 2})$ of superpseudodifferential operators with smooth coefficients. Following Ovsienko and Roger, we show that this spa...
Deforming the Lie Superalgebra of Contact Vector Fields on $S^{1|1}
We classify nontrivial deformations of the standard embedding of the Lie superalgebra K(1) of contact vector fields on the (1,1)-dimensional supercircle into the Lie superalgebra of superpseudodifferential operators on the supercircle. This approach leads to the deformations of the central charge induced on K(1) by the canonical central extension o...

A SUMMARY OF SOME KEY TEXTS BY LENIN
WHAT IS TO BE DONE? From 1902 to today
At first sight, the book by Vladimir Ilyich Lenin, "What is to be Done?", seems to be very fixed in the time and place it was written. He wrote it in 1902 as an answer to what the next steps that the fragmented trends of progressive opinion in Tsarist Russia had to take. At the time, few realised just how powerful Lenin's ideas were.
The kinds of civil liberties we take for granted in modern Britain (weak though they are!) were not open to radical groups in Russia then. Revolutionary forces were weak and had to operate underground. Trade unions were only just getting established and the revolutionary movement was grappling with how to relate to them. Lenin set out some clear principles, along the way sketching out how a successful strategy for achieving power could be developed. Within a couple of years, revolutionaries were in the thick of a revolution, partly brought about by Lenin's approach. Though it was unsuccessful, there were many who thought that it could not have happened when they were reading what he had written. Only a dozen years later, broad councils of trades unionists and peasants' leaders were actually able to take power. Lenin's book was central to that process.
Like most of his Lenin's works, it's a difficult book to get a handle on, if you read it without understanding the context in which it was written. Especially as he gets to his point by showing how many on the Left were following blind alleys. It's not really necessary to intimately know all the fine detail of the politics of the time to grasp his direction though. It's perhaps enough to realise that Russian socialism is in a bit of mess!
He is against the idea that spontaneous strike waves can be a basis for revolution; you can't rely on this as a means for making fundamental political change. Equally, those who supposedly follow Marxism, but who in practice fail to act in a revolutionary way (by saying that you have to follow every instinct of the workers) have it wrong.
Only by the creation of a revolutionary Party can this mess be sorted out. This is Lenin's starting point: "there can be no revolutionary movement without a revolutionary theory."(1) Such a theory must help the mass of the people move from spontaneity (or trade union consciousness) to class (or revolutionary) consciousness. A new way ahead is needed. Not to worship spontaneity, but to "reject subservience to and conciliation with what already exists". (2) He proposes a revolutionary party that acts as a guiding force, to educate and organise for revolution not reform.
Complex political theories have always been developed by the intelligentsia, but this does not by any means exclude the working class from engagement in theory. For the Party can transform them into worker-intellectuals. Socialist theory explains to workers their position and therefore it is attractive to them but it cannot spontaneously emerge from their minds. Without theory, the workers inevitably slide into trying to improve their conditions within capitalism.
So, revolutionaries have an obligation to contract into the mass labour movement since struggle cannot become "class struggle" until it is led by "a strong organization of revolutionaries". (3) Since Marxism seeks to abolish the wages system, it's wrong to base strategy on bettering it – the essence of trade union action and the consciousness which flows from it. Lenin defines this approach as the conviction of the need for "fighting against the employers, and for trying to prevail upon the government to pass laws necessary for the workers". (4)
More than this is needed, as this kind of consciousness comes out of the workers' crude, rough-and-ready experience of the wages system. An altogether different source is the basis of socialism which "has grown out of the philosophical, historical, and economic theories" of the intelligentsia. (5) Spontaneous movements of workers are not revolutionary in character, moreover they minimise the possibilities by their form. In contrast, Lenin argues "no revolutionary movement can be durable without a stable organization of leaders which preserves continuity". (6)

siatic perspective. His understanding draws from the analysis of Marx's co-writer, Friedrich Engels. Living until only a decade before Lenin was writing, Engels was a close observer of the British trade union scene and Lenin has this experience in mind when he talks of trade union consciousness.
Lenin saw the socialist movement as having been corrupted by those who would restrict action to a "`realistic' struggle for trivial, gradual reforms… in practice, it meant an attempt to transform the nascent (i.e. coming into being) labour movement into an appendage of the liberals." (7) He is not concerned as such with how to maximise the role of trade unions, but how to revolutionise the working class. However, this does not mean he does not care about trade union struggle. The "more rapidly our employers join together in all sorts of societies and syndicates, the more urgent does the need for this organization by trades become". (8)
But all groups amongst the people need to be mobilised by taking up all the issues that concern individuals and important groups in society. Even more vital is to identify a link between the varying issues and sections. Broad work is vital for Lenin, political agitation must be "unified throughout Russia, illuminating all sides of life and directed to the broadest masses". (9) There is a need for political organisation to channel the grievances of the dissatisfied masses, "both the working class and ever more diverse strata of society produce every year increasingly large numbers of people who are dissatisfied". (10)
Trade union consciousness can all too often be parochial, not only in a sectional sense, but also can lack a wider national perspective. As Lenin puts it "local activists are too immersed in local work", for this reason he seeks to "shift slightly the centre of gravity to all-Russian work"(11), especially by launching a national revolutionary newspaper. For Lenin the need for a revolutionary Party is paramount, unlike supposed `socialists' who do not understand "our first and most urgent practical task: to create an organisation of revolutionaries able to guarantee the energy, stability, and continuity of the political struggle". (12)
There were those who thought there was no basis yet for a revolutionary socialist party in Russia and that Marxists should take part in the movements of the liberal bourgeoisie, whilst others believed that a revolutionary Party was important, but that it should be directed by the workers as to what it should do and say. Such groups, which were essentially revisionist in character and uninvolved in underground struggle, had seized upon the arguments of the, at times, militant activists on economic issues. But Lenin argued that militancy was not enough, developing the organisational base of the revolutionary party was the core of Lenin's concern. For there will be no transformation of the capitalist system into a socialist one without a revolutionary party. Achieving a revolutionary transformation of society requires a conscious and clear body of revolutionaries. Inevitably, to understand the character of society they live in and seek to change, they will need to study, analyse and theorize upon it in order that they can guide isolated grievances into a coherent revolutionary struggle. Hence revolutionaries need to be always prepared: "We must always carry on our everyday work and always be prepared for everything, because very often it is almost impossible to foresee in advance the change from period of explosion to periods of calm."(13)
In the final pages of the book, Lenin gives a short answer to the question `What is to be done?' – that's to say to "liquidate" (15) the period of Russian socialist history which began in 1897-8 and which Lenin characterises as a "period of disarray, disintegration, and vacillation". (16) He compares it to the breaking of a boy's voice in adolescence, a stage in growing-up.
Remarkably, the tactics argued for in `What Is To Be Done?' formed the basis for transmitting Bolshevik strategy in 1917. The building of alliances with other anti-Tsarist forces (peasant and anarchist groups), the proposal of immediate and unifying broad policies (Bread, Peace, Land) and the construction of broad, responsive mass organisations (the soviets) are all pre-figured here. But the key was to gain understanding that there can be no revolutionary movement without a revolutionary theory and that trade union consciousness needs to be developed into a revolutionary consciousness

in order to achieve socialism.
The relevance of Lenin's thinking, both in the general body of his work, and in this text is ever more evident. The prevailing and ailing economic system in Britain will not be abolished in favour of a socialist system without revolutionary transformation. The building of a stronger Communist Party and Young Communist League is critical to such a process. From 1902 to 2004, an organic link between Lenin's ideas and the British Road to Socialism is evident if only you are to look for it.

"Imperialism, the highest stage of capitalism"
Writing this in 1916 in Switzerland, Lenin used a style in this work that would enable the Tsarist censor to permit it to be published in Russia. He would use, say, Japan as an example, hoping that the reader would simply substitute Russia and see that the critique held up. Of course he could not speak of his opposition to the First World War as being all about the pursuit of plunder. But, looking back in a later preface, it seems clear to him that this was so and to explain his view of the origins of that war is his underlying purpose.
Why is it that elements of the workers' movement were sucked in to support the war and became super-aggressive towards Marxists? In a nutshell, the combatant countries only represented a tenth of the world's population yet absorbed a hugely disproportionate share of resources and this allows for "bribery" of a compliant "labour aristocracy", who do not take kindly to be told the truth.
Lenin had poured over the massive literature on this subject that had sought to understand the rapid carving up of the world into gigantic empires in the latter part of the nineteenth century. Why had this happened? The most obvious underlying fact was the massive drive to monopoly production that preceded it. In the US, this concentration saw half of all production carried out by a mere 1% of the total number of enterprises. This was a relatively new but irresistible phenomena, predicted by Marx but once thought `unnatural' by others. Marx and Lenin knew that it was not only inevitable, some use could come from it. For: "Competition becomes transformed into monopoly. The result is immense progress in the socialization of production." Which is a transitional stage of some interest to socialists, for "monopoly is the transition from capitalism to a higher system."
It seems obvious that monopolies would seek to dominate the origins of scarce resources. But they are not so strong as to be able to permanently fend of economic crises. New shifts in technological solutions may well generate new monopolists. Banks are central to all this, they have grown from "humble middlemen" to monopolies in themselves. Even in Lenin's time, they are examples of a stunning concentration of capital. This `socialisation', or "common bookkeeping" has seen the domination of stock exchanges by what we would call `institutional investors'.
Lenin runs through the range of dodgy ways that capitalism had begun to run its system that we are all too familiar with now. Spread shareholdings to control companies with minimum expenditure, internal transfer pricing to shift resources around tightly controlled but seemingly separate subsidiaries, monopoly pricing and so on. These minute details were more for the Russian censor than for our education. However, in describing the way finance capital works, Lenin was pointing to the importance of the export of capital in binding the system internationally.
No longer was imperialism necessarily about the export or import of goods. The uneven development of the world now resulted in the accumulation of enormous sums of capital in the

developed world. This would never be used to raise the standards of life of their own people. Capitalists sought lands where "capital is scarce, the price of land is relatively low, wages are low, raw materials are cheap". A table of the growth of the export of capital from Britain, France and Germany reveals the staggering growth of this practice in the half century up to 1914. But the dominance of particular national brands of finance capital also led to the "actual division of the world".
Forget the fashionable cry of globalisation. "Capitalism long ago created a world market." The "supermonopolies" (we would call them transnational corporations) divide the world up amongst themselves. Just replace the names of oil companies and countries mentioned by Lenin with modern equivalents and you could be talking about the early 21st not the early 20th century. The big change is to substitute the USA for Britain as the single most significant world power.
Relations grow up between monopolies and states for the "struggle for economic territory". The export of capital extracted from domestic labour to other markets is one of the few outlets for capitalism to boost profits. (The others are to exploit labour more ruthlessly or more thoroughly.) This then took the form of carving up the globe and allocating colonies or territorial control. Possession of a country guarantees control over resources and raw materials.
Imperialism reaches out to all territories, seeking their re-allocation and division. Attempts by apologists to argue that this isn't really the motive, because the normal course of trade would source the required products in any case, completely missed the point about monopoly. Anyhow, Imperialism not only annexes countries, it also so penetrated the economies of others that they were effectively a "semi-colony". You even get the situation where a small imperialist power founds itself a junior partner in crime. As in Russia's relationship to France in Lenin's day, or Britain's to the US in ours.
Imperialism is "the highest stage of capitalism" not merely its latest stage and its "characteristic feature imperialism is … finance capital." It is not merely one form of capitalism it is capitalism.
You can't explain the bloodiness of it away. The theory of "ultra-imperialism", that all rival capitalisms would eventually subjugate their rivalries into one and peace would reign, is ludicrous. It arises from a misconception that finance capital lessens contradictions, when in fact it exacerbates them. Indeed, monopoly produces a tendency to economic stagnation, "parasitism and decay". Whilst the piling up of wealth in developed areas of the world on the one hand, with the attractions of capital injection in areas starved of finance on the other is a perfect recipe for endless war.
As always, Lenin displays remarkable foresight. He tells us that we will see the development of ever more debtor states (now we call these the developing world) with a handful of creditor states (now the Group of 8 economically powerful nations) ruling the roost. Moreover, the far-off notion of a United States of Europe (a utopian alternative to war back then) would emphasis the parasitic role of finance capital and be aimed at reducing the role of what is now the developing world in world development.
"The State and Revolution" by V I Lenin
It is significant that Lenin's introduction to this work is dated August 1917, only weeks before he led the successful Bolshevik Revolution in Russia. He was in hiding at the time and thinking hard about how the capitalist class uses force, in the form of the state, against change and how revolutionaries should handle that.
The world war then raging had changed everything. The opportunist trend in socialism, having supported the war, was now seeking to benefit from this politically. Of course when Lenin was writing, few of the world's people had the right to a vote on what the government should be. Even in Britain, most working class men had only been voting for a single generation and no women yet had the vote.
Lenin reminds us that Karl Marx and Frederick Engels had already done much to establish understanding that any particular form of state rule was "the product of society at a certain stage of development". A state is the product of the "irreconcilability of class antagonisms" in that society. But it doesn't reconcile these conflicts, standing above the fray, it's an

organ for the rule of a dominant group.
States have what seems like `natural' territory. There's generally no citizen army but a "special body of armed men" and a distinct "public power" that grows as it conflicts with "self-acting" groups of the population. Sometimes, struggle between specific class groups can cause a sort of stand off. But normally, the great wealth of a dominant class can cause it to exercise power over state officials. This works best in a `democratic' society, since self-interest is the motor. Voting is a "gauge of the maturity of the working class" at any one moment but in itself it doesn't change much.
Contrary to many misconceptions, Communism doesn't seek a ruthlessly powerful state but actually wants it to "wither away". But this can only happen if there are no longer any irreconcilable class interests. The first step is to take control of the means of production, the last step will be to end the historic role of the state. Eventually, the "government of persons" will be replaced by "the administration of things", the state will effectively be abolished.
This doesn't mean some sort of reformist evolution, not now at any rate. The capitalist type state has to be abolished by working people taking power. An election alone doesn't do this, since the state is not ours to merely `capture', no one is going to merely hand it over. We need our own form of "political rule" in a state to "abolish all exploitation … in the interests of the vast majority of the people". Previous to socialist revolutions, transformations have only "perfected the state machine whereas it must be broken". A new state machine is required, one that is the working class "organised as the ruling class", or in the phrase current at the time "dictatorship of the proletariat", perhaps better now rendered as `absolute rule of working people', or even popular sovereignty.
So far, Lenin has been grappling with these questions as they actually affect the struggle going on in Russia at the time. He ridicules the antics of phoney socialists, for the coming struggle will be intense. There will be a need for a state that is democratic "in a new way". Capitalist states vary in form but their essence is the same – exploitation of wage labour and production for commodity sale not for the needs of the people.
Looking back on the takeover of Paris by workers in 1871, Lenin hails this as the first attempt at real democracy. But the rebellion was ruthlessly crushed by armed force with great loss of life, even though a new state power had been erected locally with officials from the people. The lesson is clear, don't imagine that you can simply use the existing state machine for your own purposes. Lenin reminds us that Marx estimated that, exceptionally, in Britain there was a time when this might even have been possible due to the size and power of its working class. But things have moved on, states have now become massive repressive instruments.
The question of precisely what form the replacement state will take will be answered by "the experience of the mass movement". As we `workerise' business, the question of who has the power can be solved. Such an action has to take place nationally, their needs to be central authority; there can be no utopian islands of socialism. Unlike anarchists, Marxists understand the need for state authority until the final victory.
Creating a truly democratic state requires a new approach. Putting state officials on workers' wages is one way of `flattening the pyramid'. Socialist ministers change nothing if the old bureaucratic machine carries on. Civil servants really run the show, so converting state assemblies from talking shops into "working bodies" is a key step.
Even Engels once `conceived' of a peaceful transition in Germany, if there had been the development of full democracy; but where real power lies away from a parliament this presents problems. Nonetheless, democratic republics are getting nearer to what we are looking for. Even if capital has not been abolished, it opens up possibilities for struggle.
The use of the federal form can be positive or negative. Britain would benefit from what we now call devolution, Lenin tells us. But some states need more unifying not less. The important question is: does it aid the future transition to a workers' state? Of course, recognising the needs of national minorities is important. But states need a unifying `democratic central

ism' in the final analysis, however much local democracy there is.
But the abolition of the state, by gradually diminishing aspects of authority, also means the abolition of democracy – in itself a form of state rule. This withering away will be a lengthy process and will constitute a special stage of transition from capitalism. There's no point speculating about the nature of society as this happens. Developed states across the world are diverse. The only thing that is clear is that the state "develops historically from capitalism", so hangovers are certain. But capitalist democracy trends towards excluding especially the poor from involvement. This will change but, as realists, Communists also understand the "inevitability of excesses of the part of individual persons".
In the first stage of communism or socialism, equality is not possible between individuals who are all very different. But exploitation has come to an end and capitalist property rights have been converted into common property. The principle of "he (or she!) who does not work, neither shall he eat" will generally apply. There's still strong control over the distribution of goods.
The higher phase of communist society applies a different principle, of "from each according to his ability, to each according to his needs". The development of productive forces will need to reach a very high level. The nature of labour itself is transformed. A culture of such sophistication can be attained, so that society no longer needs to "regulate the quantity of products to be received by each" (the market mechanism). This isn't utopianism; it just naturally follows from a change to social ownership and the marginalisation of the class that currently controls the commodity production system.
The difference between these two stages is tremendous. It is the process of refining socialism into communism that should provide the great strength of the new system – until it no longer needs a state. Real democracy is achieved through actual participation, similar to the workplace group discipline and atmosphere found amongst close-knit groups of workers,. This will replace the need for armed bodies of control.
After scathing attacks on opportunists and revisionists who distort the essence of the Marxist understanding about the role of the state, Lenin `ends' the book with a chapter heading but no words; in fact, he never managed to finish `State and Revolution', being "interrupted by a political crisis – the eve of the October Revolution of 1917". As he says, it was more useful to experience revolution than to write about it!
LENIN'S "`LEFT-WING' COMMUNISM: AN INFANTILE DISORDER"
This was written by Lenin in 1920 and he himself called it "an attempt at a popular discussion on Marxist strategy and tactics". Like so much of his writing, it is very much up to date for 1920 but, nowadays, it can be puzzling just to come across the names of the long forgotten adversaries he bandies about. At times, it seems that all he can say is `this person is wrong on this or that'. But what makes it fascinating reading today is just how relevant his core thinking is now
Both the title and the description say it all really. Communists have to understand what is a short-term tactic and how these aid our longer-term strategies. It's a distinctive feature of Communist politics.
Lenin is concerned to show how both right wing and ultra-leftist positions sap the confidence of the revolutionary movement. The "left-wing" Communist is suffering from something akin to revolutionary chicken pox; even if it's not exactly the plague, it's still a childish aberration.
Writing so soon after the Russian Revolution, Lenin draws attention to its international significance and yet insists its experience should not be seen as rigid model. Revolutionaries need not only internal discipline; they should also seek mass support. This does not mean falling prey to the "old refrain" of the right wing in the movement, who are slaves to doing everything through parliament and do not see how extra-parliamentary movements can be linked up with `legal' struggle.
But the movement also suffers from those addicted to fads, often the type that fashionably recoils at the "horrors of capitalism". Twice, Lenin recalls, the Bolsheviks had to combat left deviations in the Party. Once on whether to participate in the Tsarist parliament; and again when the Bolsheviks compromised to accept an unfavourable peace treaty with the Kaiser's Germany.

romise is "admissible" when the adversary is an "armed bandit"! It is quite another thing to compromise with the class enemy as an accomplice. But the leftist cult of opposition to leaders is the supreme "infantile disorder", even if in itself it is not a "dangerous illness".
This leads neatly on to the question of whether revolutionaries should work in reactionary trade unions. For Lenin, it is "absurd" not to do so. Even in conditions of state power, there is a need to keep contact with non-Party mass organisations, so as to "watch the mood of the masses". Anyway, trade unions are "schools of Communism".
It's the same argument as whether to participate in capitalist dominated parliaments. Of course we do, says Lenin. But at that time many British Communists were so angry at the role of Parliament and the Labour leadership in pursuing the bloody war of 1914-18, they lost their cool over the whole question and Lenin had to put them right.
Lenin devotes a lot of space to this and it is, as they say, `deja vu all over again'. He's especially welcoming of what he calls "the temper" of young British revolutionaries. But temper "alone" is not enough. Hatred for the system doesn't dismantle it. True, the Labour leadership – including its leader, Arthur Henderson, is hopelessly reactionary. Sure, they're all bloody war criminals. But anti-socialists seek accommodation with them, to strengthen the capitalist system. A section of Liberal opinion has even linked up with Labour's leadership. So, we need to tile the balance our way a bit.
A revolution in Britain is impossible "without a national crisis affecting both the exploiters and the exploited". A crisis so intense that it draws in even the most politically backward of people. We must help Labour beat the Liberals and Tories precisely because Labour is "afraid to win" such a struggle. Communists should propose unity and, if it is rejected and the people clearly see that Henderson is useless and prefers capitalists, they are more likely to turn to the left. (This is where the oft-quoted phrase about supporting Henderson, the Labour leader note – not the party, like a rope supports a hanging man comes in!)
Communists shouldn't contest elections where they split the vote and prevent Labour from being elected. Voting for Labour is not a "betrayal of Communism", not if it brings us closer to its voters. To do anything else just "scatters our forces". Not much point in getting a few hundred votes here and there when you need millions to win.
Britain is Britain, and elsewhere is elsewhere, concludes Lenin. He's a practical politician as well as a revolutionary, with his feet firmly on the ground. You've got to think about how to work in such a way that you take the struggle to a point where "the inevitable conflicts" mature.
No one, he ends, can say what turn events will take. But it's our duty to carry on preparatory work until an "immediate cause" rouses the people. Revolutionary politics is indeed a "difficult" business; but this is nothing compared to the task of revolution itself!
HISTORICAL NOTES ON DEMOCRATIC CENTRALISM
Democratic Centralism is not so much as written about by Lenin as developed in practice. The approach he was engaged in was seen by Lenin as applying the traditional approach of the British labour movement of democracy in discussion combined with centralism in action to a specifically Russian strategy of building a vanguard party. He observed the past successes and failures of the working class movement in Russia and considered this against historical experience elsewhere. Trade unions, for example, put leadership proposals to the vote at mass meetings and then use picket lines to enforce a majority decision. It was more in how he and others worked in practice that informed the developing theory. But there are places where you can see his thinking in text.
In his "What is to be Done?", Lenin first really put clearly the case for a disciplined party in Russia. Since this was a political tract, he did not elborate rules and procedures but it is clear from the subtext that the politics of his argument meant that these had to be located in some way within the norms of early working class democracy as well as the consiratorial conditions that Tsarist Russia dictated were needed if socialists were to be effect and not armchair

politicians.
But would the workers' party would follow the lines of a the Rules of the pre-1848 Communist League, which was conspiratorial, or the International Workingmen's Association (First International), which was based on the same general principles that unions followed in Britain in the 19th century?
The First International was largely created by British trade unionists, who had won legal recognition for their right to organise, and it conducted its business according to the formal meeting procedures as used by British trades unions, and inherited from the late-medieval trade guilds and later companies. Membership was not individual; trades unions and small socialist of workers educational groups affiliated al their members including those who may well have not actually agreed with all the aims of the International.
The Second International, founded in the 1880s, continued the formal approach to organisation as used in the trade unions, but succeeded in building stable national sections; in many countries, it achieved a mass membership amongst the unionised workers, but membership was contingent on agreement to the Party's program and rules, rather than simply affiliating via their union — something that was never the case with the First International.
Conditions in Russia were very different from that in Western Europe and America, however. Unionism and Communism/Socilaism were illegal and it was impossible to operate openly within Russia. Whereas in Europe, Socialist delegates were being elected to Parliament, and in some countries actually participated in government, the social-democrats in Russia were either in exile or underground. During the last two decades of the 19th century, the Russian social-democrats had existed only as so many "circles" much like the "secret societies" of Europe decades earlier. They were frequently dispersed by the police and were amateurish and in a continual state of flux. It was this challenge that led Lenin to consider how democracy and centralism could interplay in the context of planning for power.
Features recognisable to us today as "democratic" were part of these Internationals' behaviour and arose out of the British union tradition and, Lenin argued, needed to be part of a party's life:
Periodic election of all party committees
Responsibility of party committees up and down.
The minority accepts the majority
Majority positions remain until policy is changed.
Lower bodies accept the decisions of higher ones.
Party organisations and members act with collective responsibility
In a sense, there wasn't really a big difference about this heritage and the thing that split the Mensheviks and the Bolsheviks was more how `armchair' socialists should be viewed in the context of actual revolutionary practice. The key difference at the 1903 RSDLP congress was seemingly minor; Lenin proposed that a party member was someone who recognizes the Party's programme and supports it by working within one of the Party's organizations. [The CPB has just such a clause in its rules today. The Mensheviks were for the idea that supporting the Party's position by directed assistance was enough. The subtle nuance was the difference between being vaguely associated and actually involved.
Only as the Bolsheviks began to effectively become a separate party – albeit that technically the two wings (and the `neutral' centre ground) were all in one party – did the detail of what was now widely being called democratic centralism emerge. Actually agreeing with and not just recognising the Party's programme and the obligation to work under the direction of one of a Party organisations was elaborated in Lenin's One Step Forward, Two Steps Back.
Finally, Lenin describes, in "State and Revolution", proletarian democracy as being in the context of democratic centralism working outside of the party in society at large. But he is clear that in both sets of cicrumstances the widest and most democratic of discussion should take place prior to any decision. He also suggests the right of people to determine their own activity, and opposes any division of labour between administration and action. Thus democratic centralism implies that an organisation ought to be so structured as to provide the capacity of any part of organisation to participate in determining policies relevant to their own responsibilities.
Unity isn't achieved by orders from above but can only be based on agreement and commitment. When a policy has been determined by means of protracted and thoroughgoing discussion amongst those who must carry it out, then unity in action is easily achieved. However, unforeseen events require an instant response, so

However, we all share the firm belief in the triumph of humanist and progressive values that mankind has achieved during its long history of struggle and creativeness.
— Tran Duc Luong
The only true currency in this bankrupt world are the moments you share with someone when you're uncool.
— Cameron Crowe
In the United States today, we have more than our share of nattering nabobs of negativism.
— Spiro T. Agnew
Plenty of people miss their share of happiness, not because they never found it, but because they didn
— William Feather
I would love to spend all my time writing to you;
I'd love to share with you all that goes through my mind, all that weighs on my heart, all that gives air to my soul; phantoms of art, dreams that would be so beautiful if they could come true.
— Luigi Pirandello
Trouble is the next best thing to enjoyment.
There is no fate in the world so horrible as to have no share in either its joys or sorrows.
I'm treating you as a friend asking you to share my present minuses in the hope that I can ask you to share my future pluses
— Katherine Mansfield
I became a lesbian out of devout Christian charity.
All those women out there are praying for a man and I gave them my share.
Each person must decide for himself what he wants each day.
As a leader, I will expose you to the options and the likely consequences of those options. I'll even share my opinion if asked, but I'll never confuse it with the opinion, which simply doesn't exist.
Get around people who have something of value to share with you.
Their impact will continue to have a significant effect on your life long they have departed.
Life is action and passion; therefore, it is required of a man that he should share the passion and action of the time, at peril of being judged not to have lived.
— Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.
How, then, can the rights of three men exceed the rights of two men? In what possible way can the rights of three men absorb the rights of two men, and make them as if they had never existed. . . . It is not possible to suppose, without absurdity, than a man should have no rights over his own body and mind, and yet have a 1/10,000,000th share in unlimited rights over all other bodies and minds?
— Auberon Herbert
Society cannot share a common communication system so long as it is split into warring factions.
— Bertolt Brecht

Light is the task where many share the toil.
People tend to compartmentalize themselves into IT people, and movie star people, and scientists, but when we share our perspectives about nature, we find a common denominator.
— Nalini Nadkarni
To tell an ally - who is shedding blood next to you - that you can't share information is a crime.
— David Warner
Brooke and I share some similarities.
We're both passionate, fiercely loyal people. But she is far more outlandish than I'd ever be, particularly with her body and her sexuality. Brooke has made herself weak for men - she only gained self-confidence from their attention.
— Sophia Bush
I'm trying to find a man to share my life with, but it's not been easy.
I'm a 35-year-old woman with two small children.
— Nicole Kidman
We have a close, unshakable bond between the United States and Israel, and between the American and Israeli people. We share common values and a commitment to a democratic future for the world, and we are both committed to a two-state solution. But that doesn't mean that we're going to agree.

Even generals must learn new skills in tech-dominated special operations future
Marines with Marine Corps Forces Cyberspace Command at Lasswell Hall aboard Fort Meade, Maryland, Feb. 5, 2020. Cyber skills will be important from the lowest to highest ranks, especially in special operations. (Marine Corps)
The future of special operations forces technology is less about what new rifle they'll be carrying on missions and more about how a new type of operator will pull data rapidly from anywhere on the globe.
Operators of the future will need to be cyber-capable or risk being irrelevant.
Those needs feed into a new kind of skills recruitment and retraining for the frontline troops in special operations forces, their supporting staff and even admirals and generals at the top of their services, officials said at this week's Global SOF Foundation forum on special operations policy.
The future of SOF: Exclusive interview with SOCOM commander Richard Clarke
The commander of U.S. Special Operations Command talks with Military Times about the future of the force.
U.S. Special Operations Command Chief Information Officer Dr. Lisa Costa said that those in special operations, even at the highest echelons, need to be learning anew.
"I really believe in upskilling and reskilling and that's not just for the lower ranks," Costa said. "I believe that we need to upskill and reskill general officers."
That's because new technologies and ways to apply them will change how operations are run in the future. So high-level leaders need to understand what they're working with both while planning and executing strategy.
She also advocated for promotions pathways on the technology side of defense that parallel the same effort in the operations side.
That would, she said, give those on more of the tech side a way to see their own progression through the ranks and career as they remain focused on creating and implementing technologies that enable combat operations.
But new operators are always needed and while door kicking, parachuting and shooting will be necessary, so will cyber work.
To find those people, SOCOM has to push past the old ways of recruiting and retaining.
Joint Artificial Intelligence Center Chief Technical Officer Nand Mulchandani made it clear that as the Pentagon tries to bring in the talented cyber experts, they have to compete with not just salary but the lifestyle expectations that industry offers.
Those include options to work anywhere and work around the traditional hierarchy in government agencies to solve problems.
"We can't bend all the way to everyone's wishes. We have a mission, we have a business model," Mulchandani said. "But in today's environment, to get the best talent you have to meet them where they are."
He gave examples from his work in private industry when some recruits turned down an offer to double their salary with a requirement to move to an undesirable location.
Also, he said he'd seen new hires quit companies after only a few weeks because the company's information technology infrastructure was outdated and hard to work with.
In his own experience, he has to fly to Washington D.C. from California just to do work on a computer terminal with secure access to classified information.
Mulchandani criticized his own department, the Pentagon, for a lack of focus on the right type of recruiting.
"We don't know our target audience," he said. "We haven't put the energy in to figure it out."
And the tools they'll use will look much more like common hi-tech gadgets than bulky radio systems forces currently lug on missions.
Costa echoed recent comments by Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, saying the future of defense and SOF is "many spaces, fewer bases."
The tech effort is aimed at making everything more mobile and accessible so that U.S. forces and allies can be where they need to be regardless of military basing or infrastructure.
Instead, the infrastructure moves to the digital "cloud."
But Mulchandani said that without the right infrastructure, new tools won't be capable of taking advantage of the flood of data and new software applications heading to users in the DoD.
That will mean work on unsexy things like internet architecture, application development and scaling AI early at the right points, he said.
One key to that infrastructure development, Costa said, will be enabling space-based communication and data storage, or "clouds in space," that especially SOF forces will rely on in missions at the tact

Manthan Vidyashram or GT Aloha or Velammal Vidyalaya, Sholinganallur ?
I am residing at Thiruvanmiyur, I am searching for PreKG admission for my daugher Jeisree, she is 2.6 years old. I got application forms at Manthan Vidhyashram, GT Aloha and Velammal Vidyalaya(school is at construction phase).
I have visited Manthan Vidyashram, that is affiliated to Edexcel, and offers prekg to IGCSE(Class X) and GCE(Class XII), following CBSE syllabus upto Class VII.Is it good. Does it also have extra-curricular activities.
Is GT Aloha school good in all aspects. Velammal is still in construction phase and would be functional by July 2016, They have some schemes like paying rs.3,75,000 for pre KG would be accountable till 10th class. otherwise it is rs.74500. How about velammal vidyalaya, CBSE . Does any one know about fee structure and school infrastructure of velammal newgen school , Medavakkam.
My daughter is studying in GTA Vidhya Mandir and yea it is a pretty good school comparatively. The fees is a little higher but the exposure the kids get are outstanding. Initially, even I was worried as they were not well established but now they have improved way far better. Education wise, extra-curricular, overall development everything is good. But, you could also look at the feasibility of distance, fees and decide.
Apart from GT, you could also try Pon Vidyashram or Sri Sankara , my friend's kids are studying there and I have heard positive reviews from her.
where is velammal located? any reviews abt Gateway international, neelankarai?
I have made up my mind to GTA vidya mandhir, which class is your daughter in. I have some queries. 1. Does the school encourage sports activities, While I have been to school for submitting application form I saw kids getting sports uniform , but school lacks big playground. Is it? Does extra curricular activities borne charges apart from the fee structure? Is the extra curricular activities mandatory.Is french available as second language? Students also got lot of books in schoolname printed bag, then from which classes PDAs are issued?Does it coach students for competitive exams like NTSE, Olympiad , ASSET exams or for IIT in higher classes, I like the infrastructure very much , so willing to enroll my daughter. Please clarify.
Hi uma, Even I'm confused in choosing between velammal vidyashram shollinganallur and GTA aloha vidya mandir.I'm looking admission for my daugheter into 3 rd grade.as would like to know how far GTA is from thiruvanmiyur.
They do not provide coaching for Olympiad, but kids are getting good ranks in those exams. I wonder how?
You can see an overall development of kids. Academic wise , all depends on the teachers. From this year they r following EZVidya curriculum for LKG till V grade.
what is that EZVidya curriculum. extracurricular activities, which and all is emphasized, fee structure covers including extra curriculars right?
EZ vidya is a kind of XSEED curriculum. Yes they do conduct Olympiad, spell bee and lot more..
Fees structure include extra activities also. They have plenty of activities.
Hi, Thanks for all your valuable feedback.finally i have decided to enroll my kid in GTA vidya mandir. Would b of great help if someone can refer any gud residential apartment closed to GTA vidya mandir. My husband's office will b in shollinganallur and I have no idea abt these places . Kindly suggest some gud areas where I can start looking for apartments ( within 5 kmto GTA) Thanks in advance..
I'm seeking feedback on GTAloha Vidya Mandir.Parents of kids can you provide your fb?
I have heard that there is more pressure in academics for the kids , is that true?
What is the teacher: student ratio?
About GTA vidya mandhir. Good school but does not have big play ground. As located in costiliest area

Nass El Ghiwane appeared on the scene in the late 1960's in Morocco. Whenever mentioned in the Western literature, they are referred to as The Rolling Stones of Africa, as American Producer Martin Scorsese once put it. They have been the most politicized of all the chaabbi-fusion groups and placed great emphasis on their lyrics, which are renowned throughout Morocco and North Africa.
Nass El Ghiwane are living legends who merged the rich repertoire of traditional Moroccan music with lyrics that sited political and social injustices. The group was formed by four young men from the poor district of Hay el Mohammadi in industrial Casablanca. Laarbi Batma (who came from the Chaouia region to Kariane Jdid) met Boujemaa Hagour (who came from the Tata (Morocco) region to Derb Moulay Cherif) through their mutual friend Omar Essayed. While performing the piece "Al Majdoub" in the theater troupe, Tayeb Essidiki, for Parisian crowds in the summer of 1969, they had the idea of using traditional music as a way to express themselves onstage. Hence Nass El Ghiwane was born.
In a time where the only music available was middle-eastern pop music that sang about love, Nass el Ghiwane had prepared something new for Morocco: they mixed the Sufi chants and litanies of Zaouias (brotherhoods) like the Hmadcha and Aissawa with the elegant colloquial poetry of Melhoun adding to it the ancient rhythms of the Berbers and the healing dances of the mystical Gnaouas.
Morocco just receiving its independence from the French and its population, still uncertain of what the future was hiding, was shocked and moved by the texts of Nass el Ghiwane: corruption, injustice and degradation of society. They were the first Moroccan band to mix such a diverse and rich heritage and to speak their minds even about the most forbidden subjects.
The group had already started gaining momentum with live appearances in the Radio Television Marocaine when they hired talented traditional arts student Moulay Abdelaziz Tahiri. Abdelaziz was a close friend and collaborator of Boujemaa. He was very interested in reviving the Malhun repertoire of traditional Moroccan music and he would later leave Nass el Ghiwane to return to his hometown Marrakesh to be a founding member of Jil Jilala. Within Nass el Ghiwane, he played the Guembri, instrument of the Gnaoua people of Morocco, in addition to singing. Then for a brief period (less than a year), Allal would leave and a friend of Abdelaziz, Mahmoud Essaadi, would replace him. He was playing the lute strings with a 1/2-step mandolin, and would leave very soon after, to reemerge later with Jil Jilala.
Although there were recordings of the band with Disques Gam and the RTM being played on the radio and on TV, their first release was Essiniya (Disque D'Or) with Disques Ouhmane in 1974.
By the release of the immortal Essiniya album, it was just a matter of time before they became veterans of Moroccan music. They were the voice of the oppressed lower class and were banned on some occasions to sell their records and play on venues for the incredible amount of energy (and rebellion) they delivered to their public.
Soon after the release of Essiniya, Abdelaziz left the band due to artistic disagreement. He was replaced by the great Abderrahmane Qirouche, also known to the west as Abderrahmane Paco or in Morocco as Maalem Abderrahmane Baca. He was a Gnaoua Maalem from Essaouira working also as a carpenter. He is also believed to have played with Jil Jilala for a brief period of time in their early years. Although in Abdelaziz they lost a great Melhoun writer, in Paco they gained a solid Gnaoua artist.
The instruments Nass el Ghiwane used were: drums and strings. They did not use any form of technology, except for amplification. They used traditional percussion instruments like the Bendir, Derbouka

Edward showed up in Port Charles in 1978, and moved into the house that his son Alan had bought for his wife, Monica. In 1980, Edward decided to test daughter Tracy's loyalty, by pretending to have a heart attack. He created a will that would disinherit Tracy, but before he could sign it, he collapsed on the floor. He pleaded with Tracy to give him his heart medicine; she refused unless he promised not to sign the will. Tracy had failed the test, and Edward banished her.
Edward teamed up with his niece Alexandria Quartermaine to make money with her friends, Victor and Tony Cassadine. The plan involved finding the Ice Princess. But the plan quickly got out of hand as the Cassadines got a hold of the statue and took off to an island where their brother Mikkos planned to use the secret formula hidden in the Ice Princess to take over the world. Luke Spencer thwarted the plan in time, and Alexandria wound up dead in the end.
Edward's next biggest problem arrived in the form of Susan Moore and Crane Tolliver. Crane, Lila's first husband, had proof that Lila had never officially divorced him. This meant that Lila and Edward weren't legally married, and Alan and Tracy were illegitimate. Susan, Alan's former fling and Jason's mother, blackmailed the Quartermaines with Crane's information. When she was shot, everyone in the Quartermaine clan was a suspect. However, the real killer was Crane, which Jimmy Lee Holt, Edward's son by Beatrice LeSeur, proved. Jimmy found the unsigned divorce papers, which Lila and Edward took care of, and then they were married legally.
In 1984, Beatrice appeared in Port Charles and threatened to expose the Quartermaines' cover-up. However, she dropped dead at a charity gala, before she got the chance. Edward was suspected of poisoning her, but it turned out Beatrice had accidentally killed herself by sipping Lila's heart medication. Edward discovered what it was like to be broke when Monica and her new flame, Sean Donely, found their way into ELQ's boardroom and took the company away from the Quartermaines. Monica then threw the Quartermaines out of the mansion, and they were forced to live above Kelly's.
Lila was able to rescue the family by starting a new business she called "Pickle-Lila." Her new relish earned the Quartermaines a new fortune, and they were back in the lap of luxury. In 1989, Edward disappeared, and was presumed dead, when he went on a fishing trip to the Bermuda Triangle. However, first he rewrote his will, leaving everything to Tracy's son, Ned Ashton, much to the family's dismay. Two years later, Anna Devane found Edward playing beach bum in the Bahamas and dragged him back to civilization. He teamed up with Ned and got ELQ away from Paul Hornsby. In 1993 Edward banished his daughter a second time, after Tracy ran down her daughter-in-law, Jenny Eckert. Up to his old tricks again, Edward set his grandsons against each other by loaning A.J. money to buy into the Port Charles Hotel, which was Ned's domain.
In 1994, Edward was arrested and tried for the murder of Bradley Ward, whose body had been discovered on the Spencer's front lawn. Just as it seemed certain that Edward was going to be put in prison for a crime he didn't commit, Bradley's mother Mary-Mae Ward took the stand. She revealed that Bradley was Edward's son from the affair that they'd had during the war. Edward was then acquitted. Though Edward never knew his son, Bradley, his grandson, Justus Ward, was in Port Charles. Justus and Edward formed a bond when Edward set up a foundation to help businesses on Charles Street. Justus and Edward got along pretty well for a while.
In 1996, Edward became so anxious to shut down the singing career of grandson Ned that he bought Ned's record company, L&B, right out from under the noses of Ned's wife, Lois, and her business partner, Brenda Barrett. But Lois got her company back with the help of Jasper "Jax" Jacks, and Jax got a spot on the

ELQ board, which did not make Edward happy, especially when Jax teamed up with Tracy to take over ELQ. When this plan came to light, Edward banished his daughter a third time. When Edward's estranged grandson Jason Morgan fathered the first Quartermaine great-grandchild, Michael Morgan, Edward became obsessed with taking Michael home. He even tried to kidnap the child.
The plan to take Michael drove Justus from the family and into the mob with Jason. Growing frustrated, Edward promised A.J. the CEO position at ELQ if he could return Michael to the Quartermaines. If A.J. succeeded, Ned would be out of a job. A.J. couldn't believe his luck when Robin revealed to him that Jason wasn't Michael's father because A.J. was. Edward was thrilled, as well, but he was forced to eat his words when A.J. was able to bring Michael into the Quartermaine fold by marrying Michael's mother, Carly. A.J. threatened to leave with his new family if Edward didn't fork over the CEO position. So A.J. was appointed as CEO, and Ned left, telling Edward that he would not save the family again, especially when the whole thing blew up in Edward's face.
In the summer of 1999, Edward tried to keep a long-lost family secret from being found out by Luke Spencer and Felicia Scorpio, who was writing Lila's memoirs. He also decided to ruin the plan between Chloe, Lila's cousin who had recently appeared in town, and her newfound friends Jax, Ned, and Alexis to fulfill the requirement in her uncle's will to be married in order to keep her design company. Despite Edward and Reginald's efforts, Luke and Felicia discovered what they thought was the truth: Edward had killed Lila's fianc�, Elliot, and had married her in his place.
Edward initially denied the discovery, and then told them they were right. But Lila refused to let her husband take the blame and revealed the truth: she had killed Elliot. When Elliot had learned that Edward had been romancing Lila while writing letters under Elliot's name, he had tried to force himself on Lila, and she had hit him in the head with a fireplace poker. He had died and the family had covered up the crime. Luke and Felicia agreed to keep the murder a secret.
Edward went back to trying to ruin Ned and Chloe's sham of a marriage. He needed Ned back as CEO of ELQ, so he paired with Chloe's aunt, who also wanted to ruin Chloe's marriage. Edward planned to destroy Ned's record company again and then Chloe's aunt would get her design company, which had recently partnered with Ned's company. But Edward couldn't seem to make his plan work, and the foursome continually evaded his efforts. When Chloe was the victim of a hit-and-run, Edward dropped his vendetta against her marriage, but not his plans to get Ned back at ELQ. However, Ned had no intention of returning to ELQ and managed to thwart Edward's plans yet again.
Edward was floored to learn that the next addition to the Quartermaine clan was not actually a Quartermaine, but a Corinthos. Carly had gotten pregnant again and was pretending that the baby was A.J.'s. However, the baby was really the result of a one-night stand with Sonny. All of Edward's efforts to retain Carly and Michael with the Quartermaines failed, and all hope was lost when Jason produced evidence that A.J. was responsible for burning down Jason and Sonny's warehouse earlier that year. Sonny used the evidence to blackmail A.J. out of his parental rights and into giving Carly a divorce. The Quartermaine family, especially Edward, was furious with A.J. for taking part in the fire and for losing Michael. Edward kicked A.J. out of ELQ and vowed to make A.J. pay for what he'd done.
With ELQ without a CEO because Ned would not return, Edward made an odd move in courting corporate raider Jax. Edward hoped that Ned would swoop in to save the company like he had done previously when Jax tried to buy out ELQ. But Ned remained true to his promise of not returning. Edward had a stroke of luck when Jax forgot about

ELQ to go after a drug company to obtain medication for Chloe from Helena Cassadine. Jax sold his shares of ELQ, which he had gotten from A.J. and Tracy, to Edward. Edward then took over as CEO of ELQ.
More family crises and events unfolded over the next several months. Emily was kidnapped, A.J. returned to the bottle, and Ned announced his engagement to Alexis. Emily's kidnapping proved to be the most intense problem. She returned safely, but she had fallen for her kidnapper, Zander Smith. Edward tried to keep them apart and even implored Alan and Monica to do their part. They finally relented when Emily was nearly killed in a shootout in front of the Port Charles Police Station after Zander's release from jail. Emily was sent away to boarding school despite loud protests. Lila sided with Emily and against Edward, as did the household staff.
Zander found Emily, and they returned to Port Charles, but Emily refused to live at the mansion. She went to live at Kelly's, despite Edward's attempts at preventing her. Desperate to keep Emily and Zander apart, Edward faked his own mugging and blamed Zander. Zander was arrested, and Edward made a deal with Emily: stop seeing Zander and Edward would get him released. But the truth about the mugging was revealed, and Emily continued to see Zander.
In 2001, Skye Chandler breezed into the mansion, announcing that she was the daughter of Rae Cummings and Alan. Alan was dumbfounded that the baby he thought had died was alive. Unbeknownst to Alan, Edward had sold the baby and had gotten the doctor to tell Rae that the child had died. Edward welcomed Skye to the family, hoping to use her in his conflicts with Ned and A.J., not realizing Skye had payback on her mind. After various plots, ranging from paying a lounge singer named Janine to lie that she and Edward were lovers, she managed to gain enough voting power to wrest control of ELQ from Edward. Edward, always suffering from a weak heart, suffered another heart attack.
During his stay in the hospital, Edward grew close to his nurse, Melissa Bedford, who always listened to his problems when his family wouldn't. He cut his family out of his will and put her in. Alan began digging into her background and, after repeated requests, Edward took Melissa out of the will. He had also been blackmailing Skye with the information that she had been faking her attacks from Sonny so that Jax would rescue her. He wanted ELQ back and demanded she give him the CEO spot, or he'd spill her secret to Jax. But Skye turned the tables and came clean to Jax first, ruining Edward's efforts, although he didn't know it. After Edward made dramatic statements about being prepared to die, Melissa comforted him. Later, Melissa was discovered to be the Dr. Kevorkian of Port Charles, thus continuing Edward's pattern of befriending unbalanced women, of whom Katherine Bell was the first.
When Jax sold controlling interest of ELQ to Lila, Edward hoped she'd make him CEO again. But Lila told him that he would be co-CEO with Skye. Edward had no choice but to accept Lila's decision. Edward and a stunned Quartermaine clan welcomed A.J.'s new bride, Courtney, into the family, and Edward invited them to live at the mansion. Edward told A.J. that A.J. had to keep Courtney happy in order for their plan to get Michael back to work.
Edward was less than pleased to hear Courtney state she was not ready for kids and that she hoped Carly, who had been in an accident and was presumed dead, was alive for Michael's sake. Carly did turn up alive, and Edward and A.J. went back to utilizing Courtney in their fight for custody of Michael, and ensuring that Courtney remained devoted to A.J. But A.J. actually fell in love with Courtney, and he refused to continue his plans to get custody of Michael. The newlyweds moved out, and Edward froze A.J.'s accounts, virtually bankrupting A.J. and forcing him to find a real job. Edward also bribed Courtney's mother into not giving any money to the couple.

Edward then went to battle against Jax and used Skye as his pawn. He played on her vulnerabilities regarding Jax and got her to sign a contract with him, stating that she would get him info on Jax's holdings in exchange for being named the sole Quartermaine heir. Although she felt somewhat guilty, Skye continued to get close to Jax and soon got engaged to him. But by that time, Skye wanted out of her deal with Edward, who threatened to reveal her deal to Jax if she backed out. At her engagement party, Edward argued with Skye over the contract and had a stroke.
Edward managed to taunt Skye one more time by saying he'd made copies of the contract before lapsing into a coma. Uncertain of Edward's chances of a recovery, Lila appointed Ned CEO of ELQ. Ned found a copy of the contract between Edward and Skye and confronted her. He demanded that she tell Jax the truth, and she relented. Hurt, Jax broke up with Skye. In a drunken stupor, Skye was afraid that she'd pulled the plug on Edward's life support and went to Jax for help. Jax and Ned staged an argument in Edward's hospital room and tricked him into coming out of his "coma," which they knew was a fake. Edward then admitted that he had pulled his own plug to set Skye up.
Edward wanted control of ELQ back from Ned and he also wanted the newest Quartermaine heir, Ned and Alexis' unborn child, under the Quartermaine roof. But Ned was not going to give up either of them without a fight. Ned intended to use ELQ to go after Sonny Corinthos, much to Edward's dismay. Ned also didn't want Edward meddling in his child's life. As Ned argued with Edward about the baby, Edward became suspicious of the child's actual paternity. After hearing about Sonny and Alexis' one-night stand, Edward went to Sonny with the idea that he was the actual father of Alexis' child. He tried to strike a bargain with Sonny to get Michael back and arranged for a DNA test. But Ned had anticipated this move and managed to make the test results reveal Ned as the father. His latest attempt at getting Michael back thwarted, Edward returned to his efforts to get ELQ back from Ned.
After seeing Ned conspiring with Faith Rosco in his pursuit of Sonny, Edward tried to warn Ned off of using ELQ and of partnering with Faith. But Ned wouldn't listen, so Edward set out to teach Ned a lesson in going against Edward's demands. He secretly partnered with Faith, and they made a deal for her to use Ned to get rid of Sonny. But Faith soon proved to be a loose cannon concerning her desire to take out Sonny. After Ned turned her down, Faith convinced Edward to finance her next move against Sonny, which was to hire an assassin to take him out. When Edward realized what she'd done, he wanted little to do with her.
When Alexis was put on trial for Alcazar's murder, baby Kristina went to live with Ned at the gatehouse. But that wasn't good enough for Edward, who wanted the baby under his roof and in his custody. Edward partnered with Scott to trick Alexis into revealing in open court that she was faking her illness. Then Ned got full custody of Kristina, and Edward plotted with Alan and A.J. to lure Kristina's nanny away and then set fire to the gatehouse so A.J. could rescue her, but all the while, Kristina would actually be perfectly safe in the mansion. The plan nearly backfired, first when Ned arrived unexpectedly and was nearly killed trying to rescue the baby, and then when Monica threatened to turn them all in to the authorities.
In the end Edward's plan worked, and the Quartermaines were awarded custody of Kristina. But soon after, Kristina was kidnapped. Edward immediately fingered Alexis as the culprit, especially since she was the person to discover Kristina missing. However, Edward didn't realize that Skye and A.J. had taken the baby because Edward hadn't delivered on his promise to give A.J. more power at ELQ. Alexis then took the baby from them and nearly fled the country with her. But Emily and Zander later returned Kristina home when they found Alexis and Kristina at Cameron's cabin after Cameron was arrested for helping Alexis. Alex

is confessed to kidnapping Kristina to keep Emily and Zander out of jail. Then Cameron got Scott and Edward to back off Alexis by blackmailing them with the original arson report on the gatehouse fire and proof that Edward had been paying off Scott to help him. Cameron was also able to get Edward to allow Alexis to see Kristina and to let Ned have custodial power over Kristina.
Tracy blew back into town just long enough to reveal that Skye was not a Quartermaine and to leave her son Dillon to live with his grandparents. Edward booted Skye off the board at ELQ and was not happy to have Dillon left behind for him to take care of. Edward's world was further disrupted when Reginald, the butler, was injured. Edward hired an English butler named Dobson and told him to keep Kristina away from her deranged mother. But Edward didn't realize that Dobson was really Alexis in disguise.
Edward was a bit flabbergasted when he finally learned the truth about Dobson/Alexis. But his attentions had been turned to Dillon, who had been seeing Georgie Jones. Edward tried to forbid Dillon from seeing Georgie, but it didn't work. When Dillon got into trouble with the cops, Edward lectured him on soiling the family name with his antics. When Dillon refused to apologize, Edward left him in jail overnight.
The family rallied around Emily as she fought for her life and underwent treatment for breast cancer and related complications. Certain she was going to die, she shared an impromptu bedside wedding with Zander. But she recovered, and Edward welcomed Zander to the family. Edward then turned his attention back to Dillon, who had been continuing to see Georgie. Edward tried again to break them apart, but it didn't work. So Edward nearly put Dillon in military school in the hope of scaring him into obedience.
It wasn't long before Emily and Zander split up because she had fallen for Nikolas. When she announced her engagement to Nikolas to the family, Edward and the rest of the family were less than thrilled to also hear that the Cassadines were flat broke. But right around that time, A.J. secretly emptied the family's bank accounts and took off into the sunset, leaving the family broke. It seemed that Emily and Nikolas would be on equal footing financially.
Edward was suspicious when Nikolas showed up one day, asking all sorts of questions about a Quartermaine ancestor and a ship owned by their relatives of long before, supposedly containing a lot of treasure. The ship had sunk in the Port Charles harbor. Edward was thrilled when Emily and Nikolas later revealed that they had found the treasure that had been on that boat. However, Edward was unwilling to share the fortune with the Cassadines, and made his opinion known to the happy couple. When he learned that Sam had skipped town with the treasure, Edward wasted no time in trying to get Jax to tell the family where Sam had gone. But Jax didn't know and didn't care. So Edward was forced to wait for the treasure or find another way to get his fortune back.
The fortune eventually ended up back in the hands of Emily and Nikolas and they decided to auction off the treasure. The profits were to be divided equally between the Quartermaines and Cassadines. The auction was held at the Port Charles Hotel, so Edward arranged for a new security system to be installed in order to protect the treasure. A technician warned Edward that the new security system overloaded the electrical circuit. Edward dismissed the warning.
Many prominent Port Charles residents were in attendance the night of the auction, which was the same night the hotel caught on fire. Edward suffered a heart attack and required emergency surgery. He was aware of his negligence regarding the faulty wiring, which prompted him to have Justus prepare a document that stated Edward, not any other Quartermaine, was responsible for the fire. After Edward survived the surgery and a lawsuit was pending against him, he regretted his admission of guilt. Tracy suggested Edward pretend to be senile in order to negate the document. Edward and the rest of the Quartermaines were cleared of any negligence when it was later determined Zander Smith had started the fire.
Tracy took advantage of Edward's fake senility to gain control of ELQ. The board was equally divided between Edward and Tracy,

with Dillon as the deciding vote. Both Tracy and Edward badgered Dillon as they each tried to win his vote. The battle for ELQ was temporarily sidelined when Lila unexpectedly passed away in her sleep. Edward allowed Heather Webber to comfort him through his grief, and he married Heather shortly after Lila's death. Tracy conspired with Heather to commit Edward to Shadybrook Sanitarium. Luke Spencer helped Edward escape. Heather drugged Edward and planned to kill him. She hoped to seek financial gains from his death. Edward had his marriage to Heather annulled.
Edward continued to grieve over the loss of Lila as the Quartermaine family faced more tragedy. Justus delivered news that A.J. had been found murdered in the Bahamas. Then Michael was kidnapped and presumed dead. Edward was furious with Sonny and Carly for the dangerous lifestyle Michael had been exposed to. Unbeknownst to Edward, both Michael and A.J. were very much alive. A.J. had kidnapped Michael and faked both of their deaths. They were in hiding inside the Quartermaine mansion. Edward did not realize this until it was too late. Michael was returned to Sonny and Carly, and A.J. was murdered.
Edward made his disappointment with Alan clear after A.J.'s death. Edward believed Alan could have made different choices with A.J. that would have kept A.J. alive. He also berated Alan when Alan allowed the hospital's insurance policy to lapse. Edward was left with no other option than to allow Skye to seduce Lorenzo Alcazar into bailing out the hospital. Tracy was not exempt from Edward's disappointment after she allowed herself to be tricked into a marriage to Luke Spencer. Luke was happy to get his hands on the Quartermaine money and refused to divorce Tracy.
The problem of Luke's marriage to Tracy was set aside when ELQ manufactured a faulty batch of ENDURO condoms. Lulu and Dillon had used one of the defective condoms, and Lulu was pregnant. Edward declared the unborn child to be the next Quartermaine heir, but Lulu planned to have an abortion. Dillon wanted to raise the child but was not sure he was willing to force Lulu to have the child. Edward tried to convince Dillon to file an injunction that would prevent Lulu from terminating the pregnancy. Edward had Lulu followed to ensure she did not secretly abort the child. When Lulu realized she was being followed, she threatened to publically expose ELQ's defective product. Lulu went through with the abortion.
Edward continued to lose members of his family. Justus was murdered when he attended a meeting in place of Jason. Alan suffered a heart attack when he was a hostage inside the Metro Court Hotel and died shortly after. Alan left most of his estate to any future children Jason might have, but Luke and Tracy changed his will. Edward and Monica were furious with Tracy and worked to prove she had altered the will.
Another Quartermaine death occurred when the Text Message Killer strangled Emily. Edward forged ahead with a heavy heart. He was saddened when Skye left Port Charles with her daughter, Lila Rae, and he was heartbroken when Michael was in a permanent coma after a bullet was lodged in his head. Edward spent a great deal of time in Lila's rose garden, a place he felt closest to her, as he tried to make sense of the tragedies.
Edward was displeased when he was selected for jury duty. Johnny Zacchara was on trial for the murder of Logan Hayes. Edward believed Johnny was guilty of some mob-related crime, regardless of Johnny's involvement in Logan's death, and wanted to see him imprisoned, but Johnny was acquitted. In a positive turn of events, Michael emerged from his coma and temporarily moved in with the Quartermaines. Although Edward tried, Jason refused to also move in. Michael went back to living with Sonny and Carly shortly after he arrived at the mansion.
Emily's doppelganger arrived in Port Charles. Her name was Rebecca Shaw, and Edward welcomed Rebecca into the family, based upon her resemblance to Emily. Rebecca was revealed to be a con artist that had arrived in Port Charles with the sole purpose of extorting money from the Quartermaines and Nikolas Cassadine by playing on their

connection to Emily. Edward forgave Rebecca's intentions when it was proved she was Emily's twin sister, although they had been separated at birth. Edward offered to pay for Rebecca's education if she moved into the Quartermaine mansion. Rebecca chose instead to pursue a life outside of Port Charles.
A routine physical showed Edward to be in good health on the day of the hospital carnival. He went to the Metro Court Hotel to celebrate and then headed to the carnival. Edward suffered a heart attack behind the wheel, and he drove his car into the carnival. An investigation revealed Edward's heart attack had been caused by digitalis he had ingested. Andrea Floyd has spiked Edward's drink with digitalis to prevent Edward from placing Andrea at the Metro Court Hotel at the time of the murder of Brianna Hughes. The only fatality of the accident was Andrea.
Edward's anger toward Sonny and Carly resurfaced when Michael was sentenced to prison for the murder of Claudia Zacchara. He tried to arrange for Michael's release but was unable to do so. Things began to look up for Edward when Brook Lynn briefly returned to town, although she refused to enter the Quartermaine fold. His great-granddaughter Maya also arrived in Port Charles and moved in. Luke and Tracy finally admitted their love for one another and were legally married, which made Tracy less miserable to live with. Michael was released from prison, and both he and Jason stopped by to visit Edward, although Michael retained he still had no interest in taking the role of Edward's heir. Brenda Barrett also returned to town and visited with Edward. She asked Edward to walk her down the aisle when she married Sonny, but he refused.
Edward devised a new plan for an heir after Maya married Ethan Lovett in Las Vegas. Ethan and Maya were heavily intoxicated and did not plan to remain married -- until Edward intervened. He offered to heavily compensate each of them if they stayed married for one year. Edward saw immense promise in Ethan and believed he could be head of ELQ. His plan did not work. Maya fell in love with someone else and left Port Charles.
Edward turned his search for an heir back to Michael and he used Michael's girlfriend, Abby Haver, as leverage. Edward had met Abby at Sonny and Brenda's wedding, and Michael and Abby had comforted Edward when chaos erupted at the reception. When Michael graduated from high school, Edward offered both Abby and Michael summer internships at ELQ. He made it no secret he hoped the summer would be enough time to convince Michael to take his birthright at the helm of ELQ.
Michael and Abby took Edward's offer and they both interned at ELQ. Edward was immediately impressed with Michael's business instincts and sought his opinion regarding several decisions. However Michael decided that a future at ELQ was not for him despite Edward's claims to the contrary. Around the same time Jason was involved in a car accident and suffered a brain trauma. Edward regretted the decisions he had made and the time he had lost with his grandson after Jason stopped being a Quartermaine.
Jason survived the surgery and Edward had the chance to repair the relationship with his grandson. Edward learned of the engagement between Jason and his girlfriend Sam McCall and he presented Jason with Lila's wedding ring and wished him well in his marriage. Jason appreciated the gesture and accepted the ring. He also invited Edward to the wedding.
Another Quartermaine wedding followed soon when Tracy married mobster Anthony Zacchara. The nuptials between the two were unexpected and Edward assumed that somehow Tracy had married out of coercion but he allowed her to sort it out for herself.
In the months that followed Edward was filled with a deep sense of loss after Robin Scorpio was believed to have perished in a lab explosion at the hospital. Edward was heart-broken when he thought of Robin's daughter Emma growing up without her mother. He remembered Robin and thought of his beloved Lila since he saw many similarities between them.
Edward acknowledged how special Robin had been to him when the city's water supply had been poisoned with a deadly toxin. Like the rest of the Port Charles residents, Edward was infected and suffered from a high fever. The only person that seemed to be immune was Tracy and one dose of the cure was created from Tracy's blood. Tracy secured the medication

Editors' Note: This is the latest post in our ongoing series of posts (see introduction here, first post on costs here, second post on duration of proceedings here, third post on the diversity deficit in investment arbitration here, fourth post on the impartiality and independence of arbitrators here, fifth post on an empirical assessment of ISDS here) authored by individual members of the Academic Forum of the UNCITRAL Working Group III (UN WG III) on Investor-State Dispute Settlement Reform, in parallel with the ongoing UN WG III sessions taking place this week in New York. The series features summaries of more detailed concept papers prepared by various working groups of the Academic Forum. This post summarizes a more detailed concept paper prepared by members of Academic Forum Working Group 4 (members Daniel Behn, Chi Manjiao, Eric De Brabandere, Anna De Luca, Jaemin Lee, Martins Paparinskis, Catharine Titi).
In UNCITRAL Working Group IIIdiscussions, concerns have been raised about the consistency, as well as the correctness, of investor-State dispute settlement (ISDS) decisions. Consistency and correctness are distinct concepts: inconsistent ISDS decisions can be correct, and consistent ISDS decisions can be incorrect. Developing potential policy responses to incorrect ISDS decision-making first requires an understanding of how achieving correctness requires more than achieving consistency.

The legitimacy crisis in international investment arbitration continues to generate attempts at systemic reform. The latest act is playing out in the theatre of UNCITRAL, which is wrestling with issues such as excessive costs, outcome bias, and lack of arbitral independence. Yet, not everyone is certain that there is a problem and some participating states have queried the critiques and their empirical basis.
So, what is the state of the evidence? Which critiques deserve serious consideration? These questions are challenging. The fragmented nature of the investor-state dispute settlement (ISDS) system and a traditional focus on doctrinal research has hindered systemic analysis. However, the rise of quantitative and qualitative research and new databases allows us to get a better grip on the evidence.
The ISDS Academic Forum working group (No. 7) has reviewed and assessed the available empirical research on the central concerns in the UNCITRAL reform process, which are also the subject of other Academic Forum working group reports. These concerns are: excessive costs, lengthy proceedings, inconsistency, incorrect decisions, arbitral diversity and arbitral independence.
For each issue, we asked two simple but difficult questions: (1) What do we know? and (2) Does it matter? To be sure, there is a recurrent tension in both questions. There is an epistemological challenge: some topics are under-studied or difficult to study. There is also an evaluative challenge. It is not always easy to assess whether a problem really matters – the magnitude of the concern might be unclear or the normative yardstick contested.
We therefore sought to map the state of evidence onto a 2*2 framework, allocating our findings to one of the four quadrants in the figure below. The findings can range from good knowledge of a concrete problem (Quadrant I) to poor knowledge of a doubtful problem (Quadrant IV). In between, we find good knowledge but no problem (Quadrant II) and poor knowledge, but likely problem (Quadrant III).
The legal costs and damages associated with ISDS have been consistently and frequently studied. Expenses relating to arbitrators and tribunals ('tribunal fees') average about

1 million USD, constituting a fraction of the costs that a party will experience in a typical ISDS case. The most significant legal costs are those of counsel (including experts costs). The average costs of counsel for claimants is around 6 million USD and for respondents 5 million USD. Yet, compared to international commercial arbitration or complex domestic court litigation, it is still unclear whether ISDS is uniquely expensive. A typical ISDS case can now can have thousands of pages of documentary evidence. Nonetheless, a process to simplify and improve case management may be beneficial, especially for states and small investors. Enhanced transparency on tribunals' rationale for the calculation and allocation of costs is also highly desirable, given the lack of a consistent approach.
Losing states will almost always pay compensation (non-monetary damages are rare). The mostrecent study by Behn and Daza of all investment arbitration cases with known amounts awarded up through 1 February 2019 (193 cases) found an average award of 482.5 million USD, with a median of 31 million USD. Are these amounts excessive? While investors are only awarded a little over a third of what they claim on average, these awards can be significant for poorer states. The result is that while tribunal costs are more likely situated in Quadrant II (clear knowledge, not a major problem), higher counsel costs and compensation awards may be closer to Quadrant I (clear knowledge, a problem).
Recent studies on the duration of ISDS proceedings provide a fairly clear picture on the nature of duration and, increasingly, the causes of delay. The average period for both arbitration cases and ICSID annulments is relatively constant at 3.73 and 1.91 years respectively with a slight decrease in the past 5 years. But it is less clear whether there is a problem. The length of proceedings is much shorter than in many other international adjudicative proceedings. One study indicates that it is longer than comparable litigation in some developed state jurisdictions, but not in less developed states. Moreover, recent statistical research suggests that it is the parties themselves – especially states – that are largely responsible for longer proceedings, specifically through requests to bifurcate proceedings or arbitrator challenges. This raises the question of whether delay is (or should be) a major issue for the reform process, perhaps in Quadrant II.
Like doctrinal studies, empirical approaches paint a mixed picture of the consistency of decision-making in ISDS. The conclusions depend on the specific issues studied, the analytical framework, terminology and methodology used. Moreover, we should expect inconsistency for differently-worded treaties or factual situations.
Citation network analysis has provided one lens of the nature and degree of jurisprudentialintegration and thus consistency.For example, Stone Sweet and Grisel trace a dramatic shift in ISDS awards from citations to other international courts to a citation network of prior ISDS awards, suggesting the system is increasingly becoming internally consistent – although not necessarily externally consistent. Moreover, additional studies have found that ICSID and NAFTA tribunals refer to case law more frequently than non-ICSID cases, marking the limits of internal consistency.
Whether inconsistency is a problem depends on the importance one places on legal certainty. Quality decision-making, sociological legitimacy, and dynamic learning might be equally valued. The consistency concern may therefore fall between Quadrant I and II: some knowledge, partly problematic.
Making conclusions on incorrectness is challenging for empirical methods as much as it is for doctrinal methods. On one hand, some authors and actors dispute that the ISDS system is biased and point to the even-handedness in final outcomes: see figure 2. Strezhnev finds also thatdeveloping countries lose more frequently because they are more likely to settle otherwise successful cases.
On the other hand, some authors have found that the majority of arbitrators advanced a pro-investor jurisprudence and that developing countries are more likely to lose a case, even when controlling for most democratic governance indicators. Based on case studies, Sattorova also finds that 'there is a significant current within the international arbitration community that favours the vision of investors as victims of corrupt governments.' The results are thus mixed, pushing the issue into the 'known unknowns' of Quadrant III or IV.
The evidence also indicates that change is sluggish across all aspects of

diversity. The 'prior experience' norms dominates as parties have strong incentives to (re)appoint experienced arbitrators whose leanings are known. The result is a system that struggles with legitimacy and some studies suggest a more diverse group of arbitrators may partly decide differently. This issue clearly falls in Quadrant I.
Empirical research raises some real questions over the impartiality, neutrality and to some extent independence of arbitrators. A survey experiment conducted on about 250 international arbitrators demonstrates that arbitrators are more likely to choose outcomes favorable to the side appointing them. Moreover, a study on double hatting shows that up to 47% of cases (509 in total) involve at least one arbitrator simultaneously acting elsewhere as legal counsel in another ISDS case.
However, empirical work on independence must proceed with caution. It is frequently difficult to demonstrate with precision the causal effects of alleged bias. However, institutional behavior such as double-hatting and party-based appointment creates at least a perceived bias and legitimate concern, putting the issue between Quadrant I and III: some knowledge and a potential problem.
The survey of the empirical studies in relation to the six issue areas that the UNCITRAL Academic Forum has provided reports revealing an emerging base of evidence for assessing the ISDS process. In some cases, precise statistics can be given on the nature of the regime (legal costs, duration, diversity) and increasingly on the casual factors behind its outcomes (e.g. causes of delay, presence of bias effects on diversity on outcomes). However, the survey also indicates the limitations of an empirical perspective. The main challenges are accessto all relevant data and modelling challenges in explaining outcomes. Moreover, evaluative challenges remain – it was not always clear whether there is a normatively or empirically relevant problem.
Nonetheless, in Figure 3 we have plotted our six conclusions on the epistemologicaland evaluativeaxes. In some instances, there is clear evidence of a problem (diversity, costs) or clear evidence that raises questions as to whether there is a significant problem (duration of proceedings). In other areas, we don't know enough (inconsistency, independence, and incorrectness) although some evidence points toward a problem.
Editors' Note: This is the latest post in our ongoing series of posts (see introduction here, first post on costs here, second post on duration of proceedings here, third post on the diversity deficit in investment arbitration here) from individual members of the Academic Forum of the UNCITRAL Working Group III (UN WG III) on Investor-State Dispute Settlement Reform, in parallel with the ongoing UN WG III sessions taking place this week in New York. The series features summaries of more detailed concept papers prepared by various working groups of the Academic Forum. This post summarizes a more detailed concept paper prepared by members of Academic Forum Working Group 6 (Steven Ratner as chair, members are Jeffrey Dunoff, Shotaro Hamamoto, Luke Nottage, Stephan Schill, and Michael Waibel).
The principle that adjudicators must be independent and impartial is at the core of any adjudicatory mechanism, whether domestic or international, and is a basic principle of the rule of law. It plays an important role in Investor-State arbitration (ISA), where arbitrators typically sit for a short amount of time in specific cases and are not career judges.
The requirements that arbitrators be independent and impartial are usually found in the applicable rules of procedures to the arbitration, including UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules (2010) and the ICSID Convention.
However, concerns over the possible or perceived lack of independence and impartiality of arbitrators have been raised by diverse ISA stakeholders, including parties and the general public. In this context, this post first identifies the issues that may rise concerns about the independence and impartiality of ISA arbitrators. It then explains how some of the reform proposals under possible consideration at UNCITRAL would or would not solve the identified problems.
Editors' Note: We continue the series of posts (see this morning's introduction here, and first post on costs here), contributed by individual members of the Academic Forum of the UNCITRAL Working Group III (UNCITRAL WG III) on Investor-State Dispute Settlement Reform, which provide summaries of individual concept

With events slated to take place in Durham, NC; Minneapolis, MN; Louisville, KY; and Indianapolis, IN, ArtPrize will offer four $5,000 grants to artists pitching ambitious public art projects for the eighth iteration of the international art competition.
GRAND RAPIDS, Michigan, March 29, 2016 -- ArtPrize, the radically open international art competition decided equally by public vote and expert jury -- together with partners 21c Museum Hotels and Delta Air Lines -- today announced plans for expanded Pitch Night programming slated to grant $20,000 directly to artists with a vision to bring challenging public art projects to ArtPrize. Events will take place once again in Minneapolis, Indianapolis, and Durham, with the addition of Louisville in 2016 -- granting four artists $5,000 and the chance to exhibit their work in a high profile downtown venue during ArtPrize this fall. Submissions are now open for all four Pitch Night events.
Five artists will be invited to present at each of four Pitch Night events -- and given five minutes to sell their installation idea for ArtPrize 2016 to a panel of five local art experts. The winner of each event will receive a $5,000 grant and a guaranteed spot on a highly trafficked ArtPrize Venue in downtown Grand Rapids this fall.
The 2016 ArtPrize Pitch Night program will include events held at two 21c Museum Hotels locations, in Durham on May 25 and in Louisville on June 1; the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis on May 26; and the Indianapolis Museum of Art in Indianapolis on June 30.
21c Museum Hotels will host the first Pitch Night event of 2016 in the heart of downtown Durham in the historic Hill Building, which 21c converted into a 125-room boutique hotel, contemporary art museum and cultural civic center. On May 25, artists will pitch their ideas for an ambitious public art project to take residence on the seventh floor of an empty office building located at 200 Ottawa during ArtPrize this fall. 21c Museum Hotels will hold an information session for interested artists at their Durham location on April 14. Submit proposals for Pitch Night Durham by May 5 to pitchnight@artprize.org, and find more information here on how to apply.
The Walker Art Center held the first Pitch Night event in 2013, and will soon host its fourth annual event in partnership with ArtPrize. The winner of the May 26 event will share the seventh floor space at 200 Ottawa with the Pitch Night Durham winner. Applications must be submitted to www.mnartists.org/pitchnight2016. Find more information on how to apply for Pitch Night Minneapolis here. Proposals will be accepted through May 5.
New for 2016, 21c Museum Hotels will host a Pitch Night event at their Louisville location. The winning artist from this event will realize their public art project on Lyon Square, which hosted Resting Place by Heather Gordon, winner of Pitch Night Durham in 2015. 21c held an information session for this event on March 10. Contact pitchnight@artprize.org with questions or to submit a proposal by May 5 for the June 1 Pitch Night Louisville event. Find more information here on how to apply.
In 2015, ArtPrize visitors awarded the Public Vote Installation Category Award to Whisper by Emily Kennerk, winner of last year's Pitch Night event held at the Indianapolis Museum of Art (IMA). The IMA will hold its second annual Pitch Night event on June 30 at 7:00 p.m. in the Toby Theatre, and is accepting installation ideas for the atrium of the Ledyard Building, located at 125 Ottawa. Interested artists will have the opportunity to attend an information session at the IMA's Deboest Lecture Hall on April 14 at 6:00 p.m. EST. Submit proposals for Pitch Night Indianapolis by May 5 to pitchnight@artprize.org. Find more information here on how to apply.

MATT MCCARTHY: Yeah, the discovery of antibiotics is one of the most remarkable stories in medicine. There was this young military physician named Alexander Fleming who was taking care of injured soldiers in 1914 at a makeshift military hospital in France. And he noticed that many of the soldiers had infections that were not getting better with the tools that he had to treat them, which was largely his surgical scalpel and also antiseptic fluid. And he was just 34 years old at the time, but Fleming recognized that there had to be a better way. And after the war was over, he went back to his laboratory at St. Mary's Hospital and started tinkering around. And it wasn't until nearly 15 years later that he stumbled upon this fungus that was producing a chemical that was so extraordinary that it could kill almost every bacteria in its path. And the chemical that that fungus was producing is what we now know is penicillin.
What's interesting about that story is that the discovery did not lead to a commercially available drug right away. In fact, Alexander Fleming didn't realize that he was on the cusp of some incredible discovery. It took another World War, and teaming up with the burgeoning pharmaceutical industry and a number of other researchers at Oxford University, before everyone fully recognized what he had stumbled upon in his laboratory in the late 1920s. And that discovery of penicillin ushered in what we now know of as the golden era of antibiotic development. The 1950s was a period when there was a new drug being discovered seemingly every few months. And the life expectancy of humans shot up because of all of these fantastic discoveries. But then there was a problem, which is that we were so successful finding new antibiotics, that a number of prominent physicians and scientists came out and said, we got this infectious disease issue kicked. It's time to look for more pressing issues like heart disease and cancer.
And so we started focusing our attention on treating those diseases just as the bacteria were being exposed to our precious arsenal of antibiotics. And that set up a very difficult situation, which is that the bacteria were mutating when we took our eye off the ball. And we didn't recognize the scope of the problem until the 1990s. And that's when we first recognized that there were all of these drug resistant bacteria around us, which we now think of as superbugs. Yeah, so when we talk about bacteria evolving into superbugs, what we mean is that they are mutating to develop machinery and enzymes that can evade even our most powerful antibiotics. My favorite one is something called an efflux pump. And it's a microscopic vacuum cleaner that bacteria have developed that can suck up an antibiotic and spit it out. One of the other things I really like are these enzymes that they have created that chew up antibiotics. And they scavenge for metals, like zinc. And they can chop up even the most complex or nuanced medication that we throw at them.
And so bacteria are constantly doing this whether we recognize it or not. And so what's been fascinating to see is how quickly they can evolve. This is a remarkable insight that we can now discover this. But it also sets up a very perilous situation for the companies that want to create new antibiotics. They know that, if they make a new drug, the bacteria will eventually figure out a way to outfox them and become resistant to it. And that's a problem. We count on the pharmaceutical industry to help us make new drugs. And increasingly, they're saying it'

s simply not worth it. It's too risky. And the reason for that is, if you compare an antibiotic to, say, a blood pressure medication, a blood pressure medication is prescribed by a doctor like me. And I say, "Take this every day." And you may take it the rest of your life. That's a great business model. Now compare that to an antibiotic where doctors are stingy about doling them out. We only prescribe them in short courses. And eventually, even that best new antibiotic is going to wear out its welcome when the bacteria become resistant.
So this has created a crisis really, which is that at a time when we desperately need new antibiotics, the companies that make them are saying no thanks. Well, some antibiotics are economically viable. If you happen to hit on a broad spectrum antibiotic that has minimal side effects, you're going to make your money back. But the problem is most antibiotics, to go from discovery in a laboratory to a hospital somewhere, costs roughly $1 billion and takes at least 10 years of trials to show that it's safe and effective. The problem with that is that not all drugs succeed. And we have found that many of the companies are saying, it's simply not worth it for us to take this risk. And they point to a company called a Achaogen. Achaogen spent years and millions of dollars developing a new antibiotic called plazomicin, which was finally approved by the FDA in June of 2018. And it was approved to much fanfare. And in April of 2019, the company filed for bankruptcy. And that's because people like me weren't using the drug. And people like me weren't using the drug because it wasn't available in hospitals. Because the company got approval for urinary tract infections, but we don't really need a new drug for urinary tract infections. We need a new drug for ventilator acquired pneumonia or for bloodstream infections. And the company didn't receive that approval. And that was a disaster for them and for the whole enterprise.
And so when we talk about small companies developing new antibiotics, they're very nervous about doing so. And they point to Achaogen and say, we want to do something else with our time and our money and our resources because the risk is just so great. And this to me is the most important political issue that no one is talking about. There are a number of new incentives and financial enticements that are on the table that we're going to be hearing about in the coming months and years that are going to be brought up before Congress that we all should be informed on before we go and vote on them. And the two most common types of incentives are called push incentives and pull incentives. Now a push incentive is when you go to a company let's suppose, Merck, a large multinational pharmaceutical company and we say, hypothetically, your corporate tax rate is 20 percent. What if we cut that to 15% provided you promise to take a portion of the excess profits and invest in new antibiotics? So this is a surefire way to pump more money into the antibiotic pipeline.
The problem is that you're suddenly giving a tax break to a multibillion dollar pharmaceutical company. And when people look into the finances of how pharmaceutical companies are doing, they may not be enthusiastic to do that. My stomach turns when I look at some of the comments from pharmaceutical CEOs who jack up the prices of their drugs. One notably increased the price of an antibiotic for urinary tract infections by 5,000 percent. And he justified it by saying he had an ethical mandate to charge as much money as possible for antibiotics because he's ultimately accountable to shareholders and not patients. So the idea of giving a tax cut to a company like that is tough to stomach. On the other hand, it would give us more investment in something we desperately need. So those are called push incentives because it would push the company to do it. By contrast, there's something called a pull incentive. That is to say to a company, if you take on the risk of developing a new drug and it succeeds, rather than giving you five to seven years of

market exclusivity, we'll give you 25 years, which means that generics can't challenge you.
That's a way that the company could charge more money for a longer time for their drug. Pull incentives are more popular among a lot of academics because it forces the companies to take the risk head first. And if they're successful, then they get to make money on the back end. Whether companies will go for this is unclear. But these push and pull incentives are the type of topics that we need to be talking to our politicians about. And then adding yet another layer to the complexity here is that, when an antibiotic is approved by the FDA, there's no guarantee that a hospital is going to use it. And in fact, I found that many top hospitals are not using the latest antibiotics that are approved. The reason for that is that the drugs take so long to get approved and are so expensive to produce that the companies are charging thousands of dollars per dose. And the hospitals are saying, no. We're not going to pay the ransom for these drugs. That leaves patients in the lurch. I've been in front of patients for whom there was no treatment option, knowing that there were antibiotics out there that would probably work. But they were not widely available because of dollars and cents, that the hospitals could not afford these drugs. And what make gives me pause is that we don't always see that with cardiovascular drugs or with chemotherapeutic drugs. We routinely give patients with cancer a chemotherapeutic drug that will cost tens of thousands of dollars that will extend their life by just a few weeks or months.
But we aren't taking that same kind of financial risk with infectious diseases, and that's got to change. So I've talked to people from across the political spectrum about this. People on the right who typically would be hesitant to have the government more involved in health care and making these financial deals are also open to tax cuts for corporations because they believe in the innovation of these companies. And they want to have antibiotics when they come to the hospital. And if a tax cut will get them there, that's fine with them. I've also talked to people on the left who are enthusiastic about coming up with these tax breaks as well because they recognize this is a problem. But on the left, there is also more interest for socializing the production of antibiotics. Now in England and in other parts of Europe, they've said, we recognize the antibiotic market is broken. Let's disentangle profits from the entire process. These are public goods, like electricity or water. We shouldn't think about them in terms of dollars and cents and that the key here is that we should all invest in these drugs, meaning countries should pool together their resources. And when the drugs are approved, we should all use them, and we shouldn't be looking at profit margins. We should be thinking about patients' lives.
Anyone who's looked at this issue knows the market will not solve it strictly because we're producing a product that doctors try not to prescribe. So the traditional laws of supply and demand don't work here. And something has to be done. This is called a market failure. And with market failures, you need government intervention. The controversial part is how the government should intervene. Many people are fearful of nationalizing the production because they think it will stifle innovation that, if you have the government involved in investing, then the top people will not go into this will not go into drug discovery. Drug discovery is the most exciting part of this entire process that people aren't really talking about either, that many of the best new antibiotics that we're discovering are in the soil beneath our feet. And that's something that has been lost on the lay press. It turns out that there are bacteria in the soil all around us. And those bacteria, just like Fleming's fungus, are producing chemicals to kill the other organisms in the environment, the other microbes. And it turns out that those chemicals that are being produced everyday beneath our feet can be harnessed and turned into antibiotics.
The challenge is finding where those are. And not far from where I work in Prospect Park, they recently found that the soil under the park had antibiotics and other potential medications. And what we're doing now, the next frontier, is using big data and artificial intelligence to sift through the pro

than $1 million for the city and more than $1 million in private donations.The monuments removed were the statues of Robert E. Lee, P.G.T. Beauregard and Jefferson Davis and the Battle of Liberty Place monument near the Mississippi Riverwalk, which was the first to be removed.The city said it used more than 3,000 hours of overtime to remove the monuments. There was also more than 7,000 hours of regular paid time.Landrieu said during the removal process that the city had secured the private funding needed to relocate the statues. When the plan to remove the monuments was approved by the New Orleans City Council, Landrieu said private dollars would be used, with an estimated cost of $170,000.Supporters of the monuments questioned, during the removal of the Liberty Place monument, why firefighters, many of them in specialized gear, were being used. Other supporters asked whether the city should have been paying officers overtime to secure the monument removal while the city is dealing with crime and violence.Ryan Berni, deputy mayor of external affairs, told reporters Friday that extremist groups and people who wanted to incite violence are to blame for the increased cost. He said the monument removal started out moderately for a standard capital project, but grew because of the security issues that arose during the removals.Berni said 100 percent of the cost of removal, such as equipment used, was paid for with private dollars that were raised and spent through a foundation. He said the increased costs come from Public Safety.Some of the costs include paying for private Department of Homeland Security contractors for intelligence gathering and extra costs associated with the city's police department, emergency medical services and Department of Homeland Security.Berni said the additional costs are being paid for with public dollars, but it's money that will not affect public safety or other critical projects. He said the city will pay for the costs through the chief administrative officer's special projects accounts.Additional details were not released by the city.Landrieu has not issued a statement about the information that was released.The removal of Lee's statue on May 19 completed the removal process. Landrieu said that the monuments represent a "sanitized" view of the Confederacy. He added that they were erected years after the Civil War ended by people who wanted to show that white supremacy still held sway in the city.This is a developing story.

The Bible is God's word, and we can trust it.
We can be tempted to view the Bible as a collection of legends or myths without realizing that it is true and completely trustworthy.
Begin reading the Bible and trust it as the authority in our lives.
This is a picture of a house built on a rock. The builder knew that the rock would be a firm foundation and would hold up to the storms. In the same way, we can trust the Bible to be a firm foundation that we can build our lives upon without fear.
What I want the group to know and understand: We can trust that the Bible we have in our hands today is something we can trust as God's word to us.
What I want the group to experience: Excitement that we can be completely confident in the trustworthiness of our Bible.
How I want the group to respond: By living and acting with confidence that the Bible is God's word that they can trust.
In this study we are talking about the reliability of the Bible. We think it is important for you to know the difference between the words RELIABLE and TRUE here. Reliable simply means that we can trust that the Bible we have has not been changed over the years and was written by real people about real events. We completely believe that everything in the Bible is completely TRUE, but the content in this study does not prove that the Bible is TRUE (that God is real, that Jesus is the only way, etc) it only shows that it is RELIABLE (we can trust that the Bible we have has not been changed over the years and was written by real people about real events). We just want you to be prepared for that conversation in case it comes up in your group.
Christianity is built on the Bible. If we can't trust the Bible, our entire belief system begins to fall apart. If the Bible is not reliable, then how can we know that what it says about God is true? How do we know if Jesus can, in fact, free us from our sins? As our culture claims that the Bible is outdated, not relevant to our lives, and has been changed over time, we need to counter those lies with the truth about its trustworthiness. When we learn to trust God's word, we will be able to more readily apply it to our lives and see God transform us.
As students are entering the room, or as you start the study, build a house of cards together.
Kadarius and Terence were walking around the city looking for a birthday gift for Terence's girlfriend Candice. She wanted a really nice watch, and he had been saving up for months to get the brand he knew she liked. They had been shocked to see the prices at the big-name department store and decided to get a hamburger and talk about it. On their way to the restaurant a man approached them and opened a case full of expensive watches. They couldn't believe the bargain prices, and Terence snapped one up right away. "Candice will love this," he told Kadarius. He was right. Candice did love it until the day after her birthday when it quit working and the watch band fell apart. Where did Terence go wrong?
Today we are talking about how we can trust the Bible, like the real watch, not the fake one. How do we know we can trust the Bible? This question is so important to answer because God in the Bible calls us to place our lives in his hands and trust him with all that we are and every part of our lives. If we're going to answer that call, it's important to know that we can rely the Bible through which God is giving us this call.
Let's play a game to help us learn how we can trust the Bible. Read the verses. Then match them with the description that fits best.
Shows that the author got his facts about Jesus through careful research and from eye-witnesses to his life.
Human authors wrote the Bible as God's Spirit directed them.
Jesus' words will never pass away.
Jesus' return from the dead proves he's God and that everything he says–including his words about the reliability of the Bible–are true.
2. Why would it matter to your faith whether the Bible is something we can trust?
Determining whether the Bible is something we can trust isn't a science question that you can test in a lab. It is more of a courtroom question where you weigh evidence and decide what is most reasonable. On the next page, we have a few pieces of the many evidences for the Bible's trustworthiness. We hope that helps you become more confident that you can trust the Bible.

3. Look at the "Evidence" list. There are eight pieces of evidence listed there that help us trust that the Bible is God's Word. Below the line are eight sentences that tell why each evidence is valuable to us. Match the evidence to the meaning by writing the number of the evidence in the box.
Do your best to make sure everyone participates. If it is appropriate, and you have time, feel free to have a little discussion about any of the evidence that you feel is especially important. Help the students understand why they point to the trustworthiness of the Bible.
4. Which piece of evidence do you think is most important for your friends to understand and why?
5. If this were a game show and I was going to give you a million dollars to know the right answer to the question, "Can I trust the Bible?", what would you say? Would you research it to find out more?
Allow the group to discuss. Explain that much more than a million dollars is at stake. If the Bible is true, then our eternities rest on what it says about how to connect with God. It's well worth our time to wrestle with this question.
Leader: Read each evidence one by one and ask your students to read tell you which meaning goes with it. In their copy the Evidence and Meanings are not paired up so they will be trying to match them.
Evidence: At least 10 non-Christian writers living around the time of Jesus also talked about him, and what they said was consistent with what the Bible says.
Meaning: This shows that Jesus was a real historical person and that he was well-known at the time even by non-Christians.
Evidence: The Bible was written by over 40 authors in vastly different walks of life (poor shepherd, fisherman, king, prisoner, etc.) over the span of 1500 years, but has one consistent message.
Meaning: Any human book written like this would have drastically different views and contradictions. The fact that the Bible is consistent in its view throughout points toward the Bible as a divine book, written by God through these men.
Evidence: Scholars continue to prove the Bible by finding physical evidence (archaeology) of the stories in the Bible. Not a single find from the world of archaeology has conflicted with what the Bible records. In fact, many archaeologists have been aided in their search by the descriptions in the Bible.
Meaning: This gives us more confidence that the stories in the Bible actually happened in real places as we find evidence of them still today.
Evidence: Some people claim that the Bible is full of contradictions but, when asked, they can't name any. When they do bring them up, a closer look at the Bible shows that the contradiction was really just a misunderstanding of what the Bible was really saying.
Meaning: Knowing that the Bible doesn't contradict itself gives us confidence that it is true and worth reading and applying to our lives.
Evidence: There are 24,000 ancient manuscripts of the New Testament compared to 643 of Homer's Iliad, and only 7 copies of Plato — many more than any other ancient writing.
Meaning: Manuscripts are really, really old copies of these books. If we trust our copies of Homer's Iliad and Plato to be accurately translated over the years, we should also trust the New Testament that has far more, and more reliable, manuscripts than any other ancient writing.
Evidence: There are over 140 details in the Gospels that only eyewitnesses would have known or written down.
Meaning: These details point to the fact that the Gospels in the New Testament were written by people who were actually there, not written years later by someone making it up.
Evidence: The writers of the Bible include very embarrassing stories about themselves that make them look bad.
Meaning: If someone were making these stories up about themselves, they would have left out the parts that make them look bad. The fact that they left them in makes it more likely that they were writing the truth about what happened.
Evidence: The writers of the New Testament were killed by rulers who wanted them to admit that they were lying about what they wrote. These writers would not admit to lying. They decided to die instead.
Meaning: No one would die for a lie. If they made up the stories about Jesus and the early church, they would have chosen to admit that before they were killed, but every one of them chose to die instead

The Swimming Lesson by Sarah Wallis
April 2, 2018 March 20, 2018 / Flash Fiction
'This is nice,' said Sharon, 'thank you for making this a memorable anniversary picnic, one that you actually attend instead of it being just me and the kids. I know it took a lot for you to miss the big match. And I also would like to let you know it doesn't mean you will have to miss every match. Just because it always lands on our anniversary.'
'Thanks love,' said Bill.
'Well, I know how Sim worries about this sort of thing,' she said with a grin. 'Need to get you out from under the thumb of the team captain!'
'Yeah, and back under Mum's thumb, where you belong!' said Toby, their eldest.
'I knew it was a mistake having three of them, you do realise, Sharon, in a couple of years when Toby has taught Steven all he knows we'll be hopelessly outnumbered?' Bill shook his head. 'Imagine us never thinking of that!'
'Bit late now,' said Toby, as he grinned and ran for it, tossing the ball to his sister, Leila. She shook her head at him and frowned, it was not funny to challenge their parents. Especially not when she was wanting a new pair of party shoes. But she threw the ball back to her brother wishing the youngest, Steven, would hurry up and be old enough to play instead of her. This was a picnic, wasn't it? And however lame that was, it was definitely supposed to be a sedate activity.
Leila pretended to read her book but watched Toby as he zoomed across the muddy riverbank to retrieve the ball, tumbling over itself to get to the river, so she was the only one that saw Toby's feet starting to slide. Her eyes widened as she saw the danger. She yelled for Bill. Not Dad, Bill.
Sharon was just pouring the wine when they heard the terrified girl.
They leapt to their feet and were running, leaving their youngest still kicking his heels up on the picnic blanket. Leila was running too, towards them and pointing behind her to the water. They needed help.
'He's in the river!' shouted Leila.
'Toby!' screamed Sharon. Bill was hauling his jeans off and about to jump in when Sharon flung her arms around him to stop him. 'No way! I'm not losing you too,' she yelled. 'That water…'
'Mum!' yelled Toby from the water. 'Help me! Help! Mum! Dad! Please!'
'I have to, love, he's our son,' said Bill wrenching himself free of his wife's arms, 'Phone for help!' and then he was diving in, a huge horrible splash into the the water carrying all sorts of danger, felled branches, shopping trolleys and the everyday detritus of the city. Soda cans, lunch wraps, plastic bags. Sharon fell to her knees and looked into the face of her daughter with utter misery. You can't just give up like that, Leila tried to say, but the words stuck in her throat as behind them she caught hold of another thought. A thought that forced her to stare at her mother in utter horror. Safe as they were up on the riverbank, the daughter realised that if she too were in mortal danger, her own mother would ask her father to abandon her. Much as she cared for her older brother and hoped he wouldn't drown today, she also realised the basic human condition in that moment as it applied to herself.
She was alone.
Sharon went to get Steven, picked him up and blew a raspberry on his tummy, he giggled and his face was transformed with love for his adored mother. The one person whom he believed would never abandon him. Leila looked at her mother playing with Steven and thought, you hypocrite.
'Steven needs changing, I'd better take him home,' she said. Leila nodded, too numb to say what was on her mind. And anyway, if Steven needed changing, that was what had to happen. Everyone knew that. He was a baby; he didn't know what was going on. His needs came first.
Quietly they left. As if they knew what they were doing was wrong

Are Any Fad Diets Actually Healthy? What the Research Shows

With so many diet fads around these days, how do you know which ones are actually good for you?
In a new review of studies covering about 40 years, researchers attempted to dispel the hype surrounding some popular diet trends and to outline what experts really know about a heart-healthy diet. They presented what might be considered the "best" dietary pattern for reducing the risk of heart disease, and explained why consumers should be wary of nutrition fads such as antioxidant pills and juicing.
The bottom line: A heart-healthy diet is one that's high in fruits, vegetables, whole grains and legumes, and includes nuts in moderation. Heart-healthy diets may also include limited amounts of lean meat, fish, low-fat and nonfat dairy products, and liquid vegetable oils, the researchers said. In contrast, people should avoid saturated, trans and solid fats; sodium; added sugars; and refined grains.
"There is a growing consensus that a predominantly plant-based diet that emphasizes green, leafy vegetables; whole grains; legumes; and fruit is where the best improvements are seen in heart health," study co-author Dr. Andrew Freeman, a cardiologist and director of cardiovascular prevention and wellness at National Jewish Health hospital in Denver, said in a statement. On the other hand, "there is a great amount of misinformation about nutrition fads, including antioxidant pills, juicing and gluten-free diets," Freeman said.
The review of studies had the following conclusions about these popular diet trends:
Juicing: There are few studies that have compared the benefits of juicing your fruits and vegetables with the benefits of consuming them whole, according to the review. In addition, "the process of juicing concentrates calories," which makes it much easier to ingest too many, the researchers said. Until more studies are available, the researchers recommend consuming whole fruits and vegetables. Juicing should be reserved for situations in which people aren't getting enough fruits and vegetables in their daily diet, they said. If people do juice, they should be careful not to consume too many calories from the juice, and they should avoid adding additional sugars, such as honey, the researchers recommended.

Antioxidant supplements: Rigorous studies have not found any benefits on heart health from taking high-dose antioxidant supplements. The current evidence shows fruits and vegetables are the healthiest and most beneficial source of antioxidants, the researchers said.
Gluten-free diets: People with celiac disease, gluten sensitivity or a wheat allergy should avoid gluten. But there's no evidence that avoiding gluten will help people without these conditions lose weight or have any benefit on heart health, the researchers said.
Coconut and palm oils: Coconut oil and palm oil are high in saturated fatty acids, which are fats that are known to raise people's blood cholesterol levels, according to the American Heart Association. There's little evidence that these oils are beneficial for heart health, and some studies even suggest that palm oil may increase heart disease risk, the researchers said. For these reasons, the use of coconut oil and palm oil should be discouraged, the researchers concluded. In contrast, liquid vegetable oils, such as olive oil, are linked with heart-health benefits, such as lower levels of "bad cholesterol" and higher levels of "good cholesterol," the researchers said. Still, these oils are high in calories and should be used in moderation.
Nuts: Nuts can be part of a heart-healthy diet, but people should be careful not to consume too many nuts, because they are high in fats and calories, the researchers said.
The researchers noted that there are challenges in studying the role of nutrition in the prevention of diseases, and these challenges may lead to conflicting findings, thus resulting in confusion of which diets are healthy.

Or maybe it just hasn't done that well? I don't know. For audio streams on Spotify at least TWOTW can't compare at all if you look at plays. TWOTW has about 2 million something plays which is nothing compared to some/most (all) of those pop tunes
It would have to be plays in a given week, last week, not total all time plays.
I would be literally astonished if TWOTW did not to enough to get in the top 100, for example French the Kid at number 98 on the charts is on it's first week in the Top 100, I never heard of this artist, surely Maiden would have done better than these?
Jadukor said:
I think these last 40 odd days is going to be as painful to wait as the last 6 years. The knowledge that there is already a recorded album out there that I cannot get my hands on is really killing me.
The wait is easy to handle when you know the fixed date for the release.
srfc said:
so it must not officially account as a single.
It is listed as a single from the album in Wikipedia. I guess the song was not announced as a single in the first place, because they didn't want to spoil the album announcement on 19/07.
Stranger in a Strange Board
I probably don't know 90% of the charts, doesn't mean it's not listened to by millions of other scum though

So, when can we expect album reviews to start dropping? I need more stuff to read!
After the release of the album, I guess.
SixesAlltheway
French the Kid is on 550,975 plays so far on Spotify (very unscientific way of counting it anyways!) So yeah. Not sure what Maiden's was at the first week...but more than that surely.
FTB said:
Maiden only had one single in their entire career that didn't chart in the top 40, Purgatory. Senjutsu will be a UK Number One album like TBOS and TFF before it. It's just not realistic to think that TWOTW would not break the top 100. It's not there because it doesn't meet the criteria for being in the charts, whatever they may be.

Song length?

The real prize is the USA #1. They haven't had one yet.
Reactions: Smither, Travis The Dragon, Iron Lurker and 2 others
wiki says song length has to be less than 15 mins. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UK_Singles_Chart
I might email the chart company to find out was TWOTW excluded from the charts or did it just not break the top 100.

Well according to the Kerrang interview, besides Steve and Bruce the rest of the band are eagerly waiting for the album to be released too, they haven't heard it in its entirety either LOL
Rod must send them a special and exclusive box set for members of the band
That French kid's name? David Guetta.
Honestly though, there's so much weird stuff going on with sales and counting in the streaming era.

Dunno about the chart positions, but ''El Dorado'' and ''Speed Of Light'' were also without b-sides or live tracks. EOTC has an interview about the song as a b-side though.
The last proper single was ''Different World''.
That's not even an "official" physical release of El Dorado. The only thing they did was release digital singles for TFF, and some kind of CDR with the single artwork sent to radio stations.
Speed of Light wasn't much better as it's just the song, unaltered, on a cd. No B sides, live cuts or instrumentals.
I'm hoping we get real physical singles with Senjutsu.

Pakistan's Dilemma
Ajay Behera Wednesday, May 22, 2002
As there are growing signs that the United States-led war on terrorism is broadening into Pakistan and reports suggest that military operations are being carried out by the U.S. and other coalition forces on Pakistani territory, with or without the consent of the Pakistani authorities, interesting questions are being raised about Pakistan's sovereignty. Earlier, Pakistan's grant of four military bases to the U.S. and the increasing influence of the U.S. over national policy-making had raised growing concerns among Pakistanis. These developments have led to a dilemma regarding a clash between Pakistan's national security policies and sovereignty.
This development has a little longer history and is self-generated. Since the end of the Cold War, the Pakistani ruling classes in search of new strategies for national security have been inadvertently undermining the sovereignty of the state itself. The structures created during the covert war against Soviet intervention in Afghanistan were redirected by the Pakistani state to achieve the objectives of national security against India: that in the absence of strategic depth, India could be contained only with an offensive strategy that kept its Army embroiled in Jammu and Kashmir. Thus, the jehadi groups became their first line of defence and India was kept militarily engaged in a proxy war without the Pakistan army getting directly involved.
But these structures both at the ideological and material level actually became a threat to the state itself. Even before September 11, many Pakistani analysts expressed concern over these ominous developments. The current ruling regime had also sensed the trajectory of these developments. The military establishment had for some time been divided over its support for the Taliban and seriously concerned about the growing sectarian violence within the country. And yet, many analysts were taken by surprise when Pervez Musharraf abandoned the Taliban, when the Americans put him on notice after the September 11 terrorist attacks. He had been trying for some time to distance himself from the Taliban and curb the powers of some of the radical Islamic groups at home. That divorce was not possible without force. His half-hearted attempts were an indication that curative and incremental methods were not an answer to the problem. He needed a pretext. September 11 provided him that pretext, support and legitimacy to carry out with force what his internal reforms were supposed to have done—restore the internal sovereignty of the state.
It is an irony that the radical Islamic groups that are supposed to be a threat to Gen. Musharraf today are a product of the Pakistani state. It was the abdication of the traditional developmental role by the corrupt and decaying state that created the space for political Islam. The strengths of religious extremism in its initial stages had come from state patronage but increasingly popular support for it grew in civil society. The radicalisation of Pakistani civil society started by Zia-ul-Haq in his efforts to gain legitimacy was continued by successive democratic regimes as well as by Gen. Musharraf for national security reasons. In the process undermining the internal sovereignty of the very state whose executive authority they wielded.

Even Gen. Musharraf, the so-called progressive, while maintaining an overtly moderate anti-fundamentalist stance for the benefit of the international community on whose doles he depended to resuscitate the asphyxiated Pakistan economy, covertly backed the jehadi groups. Before September 11, his policy was to curb Islamic powers at home while supporting them across the borders. Within Pakistan there was search for ways and means to impose restrains on the powers of the jehadi groups but at an ideological level there was also an effort to gain legitimacy for the concept of jehad. These fine distinctions are difficult to maintain and thus this policy contributed to the growing power of the Islamic groups within Pakistan.
The consequence of the state aligning itself too closely with the jehadis for its own strategic objectives was the loss of its internal sovereignty to the religious fundamentalist forces. In terms of the exercise of

According to Mortgage News Source, Wells Fargo is laying off nearly 4,000 employees from its' Consumer Finance Division that was responsible for non-prime mortgage lending. The company announced that they were ceasing to originate subprime mortgages in an effort to mitigate loan portfolio risks. Mortgage News indicated that Wells Fargo "had been struggling with delinquencies and loan defaults from their own bad credit home mortgages." Acquiring the loan portfolios from the Wachovia merger may have pushed their subprime risks too far.
Moody's on Thursday said it may downgrade 4,988 classes of jumbo residential mortgage loan securities with a current outstanding balance of $173.3 billion, and the original $240.7 billion balance. It said it now expects cumulative losses of 1.7 % for 2005 securitizations, 3.55 % for 2006, 5.05 % for 2007 and 6.20 % for 2008. Downgrades can force some investors to sell the debt, and can increase capital strains on banks and insurance companies that own it. Bad credit mortgages have already been downgraded when the subprime mortgage market crashed a few years back.
The top fifty U.S. banks added $109 billion of mortgage-backed debt in the fourth quarter, although most was not jumbo home loans, Barclays Capital said. Falling mortgage interest rates could spur an increased supply of jumbo mortgage securities, it said.
Washington Post reporters studied federal data and discovered that FHA home mortgage loans defaults are increasing rapidly. The home loan default research shows that the number of borrowers who failed to make more than one payment before defaulting nearby tripled over the past year.
If someone defaults on their home loan because they have suddenly lost their job or face a health crisis, that's understandable these days. But, after everything our country has faced since the subprime mortgage lending debacle began a few years ago, it is criminal to think that lenders are once again committing fraud and failing to do the work to make sure the people they are lending to can actual repay their loans. Do we have to learn this lesson again?
Even scarier is the fact these mortgages are government-backed. So, guess who pays when these borrowers default? Not the FHA lenders who wrote the paper for the bad mortgages. The FHA has make good on those home mortgages from government reserves. If the FHA reserves run out, Congress will be expected to bail out the FHA, with more taxpayer dollars.
A new report from First American Core Logic suggested that more than 8.3 million U.S. home mortgages had negative equity as of year-end, compared with 7.6 million just a few months prior. Another 2.2 million owner-occupied properties have homes worth only about 5% more than their debt, so they are approaching negative equity as home values slide. More than 20% of all properties carrying a mortgage nationwide have negative equity, with more owed on their home loans than the homes are worth, according to a report being released today. Borrowers are having a difficult time qualifying for a refinance loans or cash refinancing for debt consolidation.
Over 30% of homes nationally are owned outright, and they were not included in the statistics. The near-negative equity homes, combined with the underwater homes, account for a full quarter of all U.S. mortgaged properties, the research company said. The numbers are ominous because negative equity is half of the formula that usually leads to foreclosure. "Being underwater is a necessary but not sufficient condition for home loan default and foreclosure," said Mark Fleming, chief economist for First American in Washington, D.C. "The other necessary but insufficient condition is inability to make your mortgage payment due to job loss, divorce, a significant change in the payment because of an adjustable interest rate mortgage. The new loan modification plans are more aggressive with incentives for lenders to renegotiate the principal amount owed on the property.

Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to refinance as many as 5 million home mortgages may face legal challenges over whether the administration is overstepping its authority. The proposal may violate requirements that homeowners put up at least 20% of the appraised value of a home or carry mortgage insurance, said U.S. Representative Scott Garrett of New Jersey, the ranking Republican on a panel that oversees the mortgage companies.
Fannie and Freddie's chief regulator, James Lockhart, has said the changes are exempted from mortgage-insurance rules written into the companies' charters and won't require new appraisals. Lockhart said the strategy will make it easier to help struggling homeowners to refinance and get more affordable mortgage loans with lower monthly payments.
Fannie and Freddie's charters prohibit the acquisition of new loans with a loan to value ratio of more than 80% — meaning the homeowner has less than 20% equity in the property — unless mortgage insurance or some other credit backing is used. Regulators will work around that requirement by treating the refinance loans as a loan modification programs "for charter purposes," not as new mortgage loans, Lockhart, director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency, said in a February 20th letter to a mortgage insurance trade group. The difference is that a mortgage modification retains the original contract, changing its terms. Mortgage refinancing requires an entirely new mortgage, which Fannie and Freddie would have to repurchase and repackage into a new security, according to analysts and the companies. "The new home loan is treated as a new origination because the old loan is paid off," said Amy Bonitatibus, a Fannie spokeswoman.
The Obama mortgage rescue plan would temporarily approve Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to provide refinance loans that they own or guarantee with loan-to-value ratios (LTV's) of as much as 105% without appraising the property or requiring additional mortgage insurance.
C.D. Davies discusses the difference between subprime home loans and Alt A mortgage financing.
The video talks about home mortgage industry and how mortgage lenders made bad subprime loans to risky borrowers that could not afford the mortgage payment as soon as it adjusted. Alt-A home loans were not much better because many of these loans were stated income with no income documentation required. Who could forget the ridiculous 1% teaser rate on loans that had negative amortization features that actually caused mortgage balance to rise. Many of the foreclosures came from the no-money down home loans made from Alt-A and subprime lenders.
The U.S. economy has lost 1.91 million jobs this year, while falling house prices have made it difficult for homeowners who are unable to pay their mortgage loans or sell their property without incurring a loss in a short sale. Payrolls declined in each month of 2008 through November, the Labor Department said today in Washington. New home foreclosures dropped to 1.07 % from 1.08 % in the 2nd quarter as some states enacted laws to temporarily stop home repossessions and mortgage lenders increased efforts to modify the terms of loans, Brinkmann said.
Will $800 Billion More Cure the Mortgage and Credit Crisis?
US authorities launched fresh efforts Tuesday to unfreeze credit and limit the economic downturn with programs to buy up to 800 billion dollars in mortgage loans and asset-backed securities. The initiatives call for up to 600 billion dollars in Federal Reserve purchases of home loan securities, and a separate 200 billion dollars for asset-backed securities to assist consumers with more credit lines. The Federal Reserve and Bush administration continue efforts to stimulate the economy with cash injections intended to jump-start American credit markets that have nearly been frozen shut since October. The government has not made their intentions to increase liquidity while decreasing the home loans costs for borrowers looking to refinance or purchase a home. Last month, HUD introduced FHA home loans for distressed homeowners who were 90 days or more delinquent on their mortgage, but after

thousands of borrowers completing the applications for this Hope for Homeowners program, only a few actually were approved by FHA mortgage lenders.
Economist Marie-Pierre Ripert noted in a recent article, "Both these measures are clearly a significant step in the action implemented by the Fed in trying to avoid a deeper recession and to prevent the economy to fall in a deflationary spiral." The US central bank said it planned to buy up to 100 billion dollars of bad mortgages and debt obligations of housing-related government-sponsored entities like Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae in the next week and purchase 500 billion more in a home loan modifications scheduled to roll out by the end of this year. The 500 billion dollars in mortgage securities is said to be bought by asset managers selected in a competitive mortgage servicing process "with a goal of beginning these purchases before year-end," the Federal Reserve said. These purchases "are expected to take place over several quarters." Many real estate analysts believe that we have not seen the bottom of the housing market and this foreclosure crisis and lending drama may just be the beginning of a much more severe decline with no real solutions achieving any measurable success rectifying the lack of credit.
The government's program to refinance delinquent mortgages into affordable government-insured loans has been enhanced. Among the improvements are increased loan-to-values, extended loan terms and immediate compensation for second mortgage companies. More than ever before FHA home loans have been the backbone supporting mortgage brokers and lenders with subprime and foreclosure prevention products.
The maximum LTV on the HOPE for Homeowners program has been raised to 96.5%, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development announced today. The LTV was previously limited to 90, an October mortgagee letter from HUD said. Many FHA mortgage lenders had indicated that the Hope for Homeowners Programs simply did not connect with the average homeowner that need loan refinancing.
In La Jolla California home sales rose unseasonably last month from September as buyers shook off gloomy financial news and took advantage of often-steep discounts. The median sale price fell to $300,000 – a 67-month low – as foreclosures once again accounted for half of all resales, a real estate information service reported. Last month's record annual sales increase reflects two things: Very weak sales a year ago on the heels of the August credit crunch and earlier subprime meltdown, and this year's big sales gains in inland markets where prices have fallen 30% or more. Depreciation in such areas has triggered record foreclosures, which tend to sell at a discount, attracting bargain hunters.
51% of existing homes that closed escrow in October were foreclosed on at some point in the prior 12 months. That's up from a revised 50.0% in September and 16.0% in October 2007. At the county level, these "foreclosure homes sold" ranged from 39.2% of October existing home sales in Orange County to 67.7% in Riverside County. In Los Angeles County homes sold from foreclosure were 40.3% of sales; in San Diego 48.6%; San Bernardino 65.2% and in Ventura County 47.0 %.
High foreclosure levels may explain the Southern California's $300,000 median sale price in October, the lowest since it was $298,000 in April 2003. Last month's median was 2.8% lower than $308,500 in September and 32.6% lower than $445,000 in October 2007.

Several factors explain the plunge in the median price, the point where half of the house sold for less and half for more: Regionally home price depreciation; much slower high-end sales; and the rising market share of foreclosure home sold, which tend to be located in mid-to lower-cost areas.

insured loans allowing a down payment of as little as 3% represented nearly one-third of all Southern California's home loans last month, up from 2% a year earlier.
Meanwhile, use of larger mortgages known as "jumbo mortgage loans," common in higher-cost coastal neighborhoods, is still far below normal. Before the credit crunch hit in August 2007, 40% of Southland sales were financed with jumbos, then defined as over $417,000. Last month just 13.1% of home purchase loans were over $417,000.
The typical monthly mortgage payment that Southern California home-buyers committed themselves to paying was $1,413 last month, down from $1,458 the previous month, and down from $2,115 a year ago. After inflation adjustments, current payments are 33.9 % below typical payments in the spring of 1989, the peak of the prior real estate cycle. They are 45.8% below the current cycle's peak in June 2006. Indicators of market distress continue to move in different directions. Foreclosure activity is at or near record levels, financing with adjustable-rate mortgages is near the all-time low, as is financing with multiple mortgages.
DataQuick also reported Down payment sizes and flipping rates are stable, non-owner occupied buying activity appears flat but might be emerging. MBA reported this week that home loan activity has decreased, but the home loan modification inquiries continue to soar as the foreclosure crisis worsens.
Bank of America Corp.'s recent decision to provide $8.4 billion in home loan modifications to settle charges brought by state attorneys general against Countrywide Financial Corp. was hailed as a milestone when the deal was announced this fall. But apparently nobody talked to one group that will shoulder much of the settlement's costs: investors who hold securities backed by Countrywide home loans. Now, some of those investors are crying foul, adding to the confusion over what is becoming a central issue in efforts to resolve the wave of foreclosures that is at the root of the global financial crisis.
J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. and Citigroup Inc. recently announced foreclosure-prevention programs that aim to lower mortgage rates, extend repayment schedules and, in the case of Citigroup, reduce loan amounts, to help borrowers keep their homes. But the programs have focused primarily on home loans wholly owned by those companies because they feel they have more authority to provide loan work-outs. Over $2 trillion in mortgage loans were packaged into mortgage-backed securities and sold to investors by Wall Street, according to Inside Mortgage Finance. But opinions vary regarding the degree to which these mortgages can be modified. Bank of America settled charges this fall with attorneys general from 15 states. The settlement stemmed from charges that Countrywide engaged in predatory lending practices involving borrowers who took out subprime mortgages and option-ARM mortgage loans that featured a negative amortization. Under the settlement, Bank of America, which acquired Countrywide in July, agreed to modify the mortgages of as many as 400,000 borrowers by providing mortgage refinancing, lowering interest rates and reducing principal amounts. Bank of America neither admitted nor denied wrongdoing.
Background: This fall, Bank of America agreed to an $8.4 billion program to modify mortgages, to settle charges by state attorneys general against Countrywide, which it now owns. The Concern: Many of the loans covered by the settlement were packaged into mortgage-backed securities. Some investors who own those securities say Bank of America is shifting much of the cost of the settlement to investors. The Response: Bank of America says its contracts with investors provided it with "delegated authority" to modify many of the loans. It also is talking with investors about their concerns.
Bigger Picture: The dispute comes as mortgage companies are under pressure to do more to keep borrowers in their homes. It isn't clear just how much authority the companies have to modify loans that were packaged into securities. Bank of America said it owns about 12% of the roughly 400,000 loans at issue

Home>Environment & Sustainability>Climate Action>Reducing our Carbon Footprint
Delta has reached its goal to reduce its corporate emissions by 20% of 2007 levels by 2015. Going forward we are working toward remaining carbon neutral, increasing the use of renewable energy and updating our Climate Change Initiative. We will be looking at corporate actions, community actions and how we can adapt to climate change impacts.
Where possible we have improved the energy efficiency of our recreation centres, right-sized our fleet and switched to cleaner burning fuels like bio diesel.
Corporate Climate Change Initiative
Developed in 2007, Delta's corporate Climate Change Initiative outlines actions to reduce our carbon footprint. The initiative has two main goals:
To reduce greenhouse gas emissions from municipal buildings, fleet vehicles and operations
To adapt municipal infrastructure and emergency plans to ensure our community is well prepared for and protected against climate change impacts
Delta is a member of the national Partners for Climate Protection program and a signatory of the BC Climate Action Charter. A summary of Delta's climate actions and greenhouse gas reductions can be found here.
Delta initiated the development of a Community Energy and Emissions Plan (CEEP) to support commitments and targets made under the Mexico City Pact, BC Climate Action Charter, Delta's Official Community Plan, and Delta's Climate Change Initiative. A Community Energy and Emissions Plan guides the community's priorities and efforts with respect to its energy consumption, and identifies how to support activities that reduce our daily energy impacts at home, work and in between.
Why create a Community Energy and Emissions Plan?
In the future, it will be our children who live, work and play in Delta and we want to ensure that our community continues to be a great place to call home. The decisions we make today about energy emissions related to our homes, businesses and transportation will affect future generations.
Delta is committed to helping the community reduce its contribution to climate change. The Community Energy and Emissions Plan describes a course for the community to achieve this commitment.
There are many additional benefits to taking action to reduce energy consumption and GHG emissions, including:
Reducing energy costs for the community (for residents and businesses)
Reducing vulnerability to energy markets through reduced reliance on fossil fuels
Creating local economic development opportunities in energy efficiency and green energy
Supporting the community's goals for creating a livable, complete, green, planned, prosperous and involved community
An energy and emissions inventory was created for the community of Delta. The inventory summarizes all of the energy used and emissions produced within Delta. The 2007 inventory shows that residents and businesses consumed almost 14 million Gigajoules of energy, mostly in the form of natural gas, electricity, gasoline and diesel fuel. This led to a total of 680,000 tonnes of carbon emissions, or about seven tonnes per person.
The 2007 GHG emissions inventory breaks down as follows:
Almost 60% of our GHG emissions come from using fossil fuels in our vehicles. We use a combination of gasoline, diesel and propane to get ourselves around every day, and to move people and goods for our businesses. This inventory includes only vehicles registered in Delta.
Almost 40% of our GHG emissions come from heating, cooling and powering our buildings. The majority of these GHG emissions come from burning natural gas (almost 90%), and the remaining come from electricity use.
A portion of our GHG emissions come from our waste that goes to landfills where it decomposes and releases methane gas, a potent GHG. This inventory only includes GHG emissions from the solid waste generated by residents and businesses located in Delta.
Where We Want to Be
Through the CEEP development process (1.3 MB), a vision, goals and targets were established that describe where we want Delta to be in

The 30 best fall movies that should be on your radar
From delicate indies to big-budget sci-fi dystopias, these are the films everyone will be talking about
By Joshua Rothkopf and Time Out contributors | Posted: Thursday August 24 2017
Looks like we made it: made it through another summer of Hollywood's big 'n' dumb summer movies. And though blockbusters like Wonder Woman, War for the Planet of the Apes and the delightfully rude Girls Trip sure made the sweltering weeks bearable, there's nothing we prefer doing more than turning up our collars (yes, jackets!), plugging in our brains and gearing up for the best fall movies sure to dominate awards talk. Of dozens of titles, we've pared down the coming season to an essential 30: the films that will have you believing in cinema again.
RECOMMENDED: Full guide to the best things to do in the fall in NYC
Best fall movies in September
Movies, Horror
As long as this hugely anticipated adaptation of Stephen King's 1,100-page doorstop brings the evil clown-ness (and Bill Skarsgård's Pennywise looks absolutely terrifying), it's bound to please its audience—though not those who suffer from coulrophobia. Drop that word at a party. The rest of It will remind viewers of Stranger Things, perhaps a good thing. Sept 8
Never mind that Jennifer Lawrence and Javier Bardem don't exactly scream "perfect couple"; it's what happens after some unexpected guests show up—including Michelle Pfeiffer in what's being whispered about as a career comeback—that has us strapped in for wherever Darren Aronofsky's latest crazy train takes us. No, we're not bringing our own moms. Sept 15
In 1973, obnoxious Trump-like tennis champ Bobby Riggs claimed that, at 55 and well past his prime, he could still beat any female tennis player. Court legend Billie Jean King took that bet, and the stage was set for a titanic smackdown. With La La Land's Emma Stone as King and Steve Carell as Riggs, this promises to be a fun take on a fascinating, still-relevant true story. Sept 22
The LEGO Cinematic Universe is two for two so far, kicking things off with 2014's everything-is-awesome The LEGO Movie and following it up with LEGO Batman Movie, which was funnier than any Christopher Nolan film. We have no reason to doubt the quality control behind this third effort, which includes voice parts for Olivia Munn, Kumail Nanjiani and Jackie Chan. Sept 22
Movies, Drama
That's Vincent van Gogh, to those of us on a first-name basis. Maybe you've seen other movies that explore the artist's life and violent passion (Robert Altman's Vincent & Theo, starring Tim Roth, is a standout). Still, none of them can boast of being completely composed of hand-painted animation: Every frame of this movie took hours to make. We suggest you lend an ear. Sept 22
It won't be the first studio film to deal with the Boston Marathon bombing—that honor goes to the Mark Wahlberg vehicle Patriots Day—but it's the one we're most interested in. Based on the true story of survivor Jeff Bauman, who lost both legs in the attack and became an uneasy hero, the film stars

Jake Gyllenhaal and Miranda Richardson. Sept 22
Judi Dench plays a starchy Queen Victoria—and we realize that for some of you, reading further is unnecessary; you're already lining up. For everyone else, director Stephen Frears's drama chronicles the monarch's unlikely friendship with an Indian servant (Furious 7's Ali Fazal). Few filmmakers on the planet do these history-based movies as well as Frears (The Queen). Sept 22
The immortal Harry Dean Stanton, 91 years old, continues to work, casting his gentle spell in episodes of the new Twin Peaks. But even his most ardent fans didn't expect him to star in a new movie, directed by actor John Carroll Lynch, about an atheist who undergoes late-in-life ideas about mortality. Stanton's buddy David Lynch has a supporting role. Sept 29
Felt is better known posthumously as the high-ranking FBI agent who turned out to be key Watergate whistleblower "Deep Throat." Liam Neeson brings his growl (if not his particular set of skills) to a Nixon-era-set drama that's made complex by ego and self-righteousness. The film is as timely as it gets; hopefully, it will inspire some viewers in Washington to go rogue. Sept 29
Super Dark Times
Those super dark times are the 1990s, even if you remember them otherwise. In Kevin Phillips's ominous-looking debut feature, they're the moment when two friends, barely out of boyhood, find themselves responsible for a horrible accidental crime. Their cover-up makes matters worse. Comparisons to Stand by Me and Donnie Darko are already surfacing. Sept 29
Best fall movies in October
Movies, Science fiction
A Blade Runner sequel isn't really a long-held dream of sci-fi fans; it's more like a threat. Why ruin the reputation of a perfect movie? Still, if anyone's going to pull it off with grace and depth, it's Arrival director Denis Villeneuve, who, with the blessing of original filmmaker Ridley Scott, is doubling down on the dare of the year. Along for the ride is Ryan Gosling, hanging up his dancing shoes for a flatfoot's gait. Some dude named Harrison Ford is in it too. Oct 6
For decades, France's revered Agnès Varda has made lovely docu-essays about photography, memory and the concerns of working people. Her latest, created in conjunction with Banksy-like street artist JR, chronicles the installation of several frisky large-scale public art projects, with tangents into Varda's own history; there's even a visit to Jean-Luc Godard's house. Oct 6
Following up his inspired Tangerine, indie wunderkind Sean Baker continues his celebration of communities on the margins. This time his gaze falls on the rambunctious, largely unsupervised children who live in a ratty motel on the outskirts of Disney World. Even as single parents struggle to make the rent, these kids dream big in a movie that vibrates with compassion and energy. Anchoring it all is Willem Dafoe as the building's manager and Christ-like guardian; the role might be his Oscar ticket. Oct 6
Movies, Action and adventure
Someone needed to take up the mantle of nature-inspired filmmaker Carroll Ballard (The Black Stallion), and codirecting brothers Alex and Andrew J. Smith are just the guys to do it. Suffused with Montana-shot gorgeousness, existential panic and hard-earned, bruised affection, this survival story—about a boy and his dad stuck in an unforgiving wilderness with a bear on their tail—will fill your heart to bursting. Oct 6
Movies, Comedy
The Meyerowitz Stories (New and Selected)
Noah Baumbach has become so expert at mining a certain brainy urban dissatisfaction, it's easy to underrate how wise his films have become. His latest, a penetrating under-dad's-shadow film, is in the same league as The Squid and the Whale but an evolution, too. As semi-estranged

adult brothers, Adam Sandler and Ben Stiller have never been better, but the real star is the script: "You were both such middle-aged men in the making," someone observes of them, and the comment sticks. Oct 13
Director Todd Haynes (Far From Heaven, Carol) pays acute attention to the difficulties of outsiders railing against expectations. If his latest drama, based on the YA book by Hugo's Brian Selznick about two deaf children having adventures in separate decades, feels a little tame for him, know that the movie's compassion is voluminous. It also re-creates a grungy '70s NYC with pitch-perfect accuracy; you have to see it for that alone. Oct 20
The cast is spectacular: Michael Fassbender, Rebecca Ferguson, Chloë Sevigny, Charlotte Gainsbourg, the return of the ultra-weird Val Kilmer. Why have they all assembled? It's not the script, a generic murder mystery based on the Jo Nesbø crime novel. We're betting it to work with director Tomas Alfredson, who, with Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy and the original Let the Right One In, has shown that he knows his way around genre thrills. Oct 20
Were you knocked out by Greek weirdo Yorgos Lanthimos's The Lobster? (Are you sure you saw it?) This once-in-a-generation filmmaker continues his unique trajectory of spooky neo-surrealism with his latest dark tale, about a surgeon (Colin Farrel) blackmailed by a stranger into operating on his own family out of penance for a botched job. Oct 27
A savage piece of art-world satire, Ruben Östlund's Palme d'Or winner scores points against the fictional staffers of a Swedish contemporary art museum—especially its chief curator, a stylish nincompoop. Just under that surface is a brutal takedown of monied self-entitlement; the movie's humor sneaks up on you, as it did with Östlund's Force Majeure. Oct 27
Dusting off a script the Coen brothers first wrote in 1986 after the success of Blood Simple, director George Clooney dives into crime-comedy territory, a place he knows intimately. It's 1959 and this film's unspecified neighborhood sure looks like a set for Leave It to Beaver. But horn-rimmed patriarch Gardner Lodge (Matt Damon) knows better, and his paranoia over home invasion turns out to be well founded. Oscar Isaac and Julianne Moore assist in bringing the midnight mania. Oct 27

There is no more relaxed director in all of American filmmaking than Richard Linklater, whose long-game process has resulted in such exquisite dramas as Boyhood and the Before trilogy. His new movie, a sequel to Hal Ashby's 1973 The Last Detail, dives intimately into the nuances of soldiering, parental grief and pride in a country that perhaps doesn't deserve it. Bryan Cranston, Laurence Fishburne and an unusually quiet Steve Carell co-star. Nov 3
Singlehandedly, Chris Hemsworth has made the Marvel Cinematic Universe a much more fun place to be: His Thor, equal parts somber Norse god and Californian everybro, deserves as much screen time as can be spared. This sequel brings on plenty of character actors who know this stuff needs a wink, especially the rascally Jeff Goldblum as the Grandmaster, whatever that is. Nov 3
With Greta Gerwig stepping behind the camera, we have deeply unreasonable expectations: Will this be as good as Frances Ha or simply our favorite movie ever made? Little is known about Lady Bird, but Gerwig has gathered three of the finest actors of a rising generation: Manchester by the Sea's Lucas Hedges, Miss Stevens's Timothée Chalamet and the irrepressible Saoirse Ronan, whose performance in Brooklyn will one day be remembered as the mightiest turn of the decade. Ronan plays Christine, a free-spirited Californian desperate to leave Sacramento. Nov 10

Russia breaches own law to imprison Crimean Tatar leader
Halya Coynash
Russian President Vladimir Putin is due to address the UN on Sept 28, 2015. In the likely absence of a hard-hitting attack over Russia's invasion and annexation of Crimea, we can at least tackle him on specific victims and violations under Russian occupation.
The 'Feb 26, 2014 Case' is an appropriate starting point for a number of reasons, most specifically the following:
The legal absurdity of any prosecution over a demonstration that took place before annexation and therefore under Ukrainian law. Russia's own legislation prohibits such proceedings;
The clear targeting of Crimean Tatars ;
The ongoing detention of the Deputy Head of the Crime

an Tatar Mejlis, or representative assembly Akhtem Chiygoz; father of four Ali Asanov and 26-year-old Mustafa Degermendzhy;
Strong grounds for believing that various forms of unlawful duress are being applied to extract false testimony against Chiygoz, as the highest-ranking member of the Mejlis since Russia banned its Head, Refat Chubarov from his homeland.
No legal jurisdiction
According to Russia's Criminal Code (Article 12 § 3), a criminal prosecution can only be initiated against foreign nationals who committed an offence on the territory of another country if "the crime was directed against the interests of the Russian Federation or a citizen of the Russian Federation."
Russia and its occupation regime in Crimea would be unable to do that and are simply ignoring the issue, and the overt illegality of the entire proceedings.
Against Crimean Tatars and specifically the Mejlis
The first arrest was of Akhtem Chiygoz on Jan 29, 2015. He was taken into custody on charges of 'organizing and taking part in mass disturbances', namely a demonstration 10 months earlier which had taken place the day before Russian soldiers seized control in Crimea, and 20 days before Russia formally – and illegally – annexed Crimea.
The move was difficult not to view in the context of the ongoing offensive against the Mejlis, which had been unwavering in their opposition to Russia's occupation. It was typical that the Russian Investigative Committee's statement constantly refers to the "civic organization "Mejlis of the Crimean Tatar People", i.e. one NGO among many.
There were around 10 thousand Crimean Tatars and Maidan supporters who gathered outside the parliament building in Simferopol because they feared plans were underway to push through a bill changing Crimea's status. They were opposed by a smaller number of pro-Russian demonstrators led by Sergei Aksyonov, then the leader of a marginal pro-Russian party in the Crimean parliament. Aksyonov was installed as self-proclaimed leader on Feb 27 after Russian soldiers seized control.
Radio Svoboda reported at the time of Chiygoz's arrest that their video footage clearly showed all representatives of the Mejlis seeking only to calm the crowd and prevent bloodshed. This was also confirmed by a Russian journalist Pavel Kanygin, writing for Novaya Gazeta, and present during the demonstration on Feb 26, 2014 He reports that Refat Chubarov used a megaphone to call for calm after the first scuffles broke out. Later, after the parliamentary session believed to be planning to take control was cancelled, Chubarov and Aksyonov came out together and called for calm and for the demonstrators to disperse. Kanygin adds that the Crimean Tatars heeded this call, not the pro-Russian demonstrators who remained and kept chanting "Russia!" One of the two people who died was reported to have had a heart attack.
Ali Asanov's wife, Elnara, their children and Elnara's mother
There have been numerous arrests and interrogations, and a few other people are also facing trial on these extraordinary charges.
It was obvious from the outset that Russia had no intention of releasing Chiygoz from custody. There appears to be only one reason for holding Asanov and Degermendzhy in detention, that being to extract false testimony against Akhtem Chiygoz, Deputy Head of the Mejlis or Crimean Tatar representative assembly – or to punish them for not giving it. Asanov and his family have reported from the outset that he was clearly told that he would be freed if he denounced Chiygoz. Asanov is the only breadwinner, and has four small children and an ailing father, all of whom the occupation regime is using as hostages. Degermendzhy's appeal against baseless detention was heard and rejected on Aug 28.
Three men are in detention and a number of other Crimean Tatars are facing charges that are legally absurd since they pertain to a demonstration that took place before Russian soldiers seized control in Crimea, under Ukrainian jurisdiction and law.
Even if we ignore this, then any testimony now provided will still run up against ample video footage clearly demonstrating that

Trekking Toward The Truth
Matt Connolly's Writing on the Boston Gang Wars
The FBI Blundered – It Should Have Stopped This: Note the Fear to Criticize It
Posted bymtc9393 June 13, 2016 June 13, 2016 12 Comments on The FBI Blundered – It Should Have Stopped This: Note the Fear to Criticize It
It happened again. Another attack by a Muslim on Americans and the Muslim had been brought to the attention of the FBI as being a possible radical.
We had Tamerlan Tsarnaev in Boston. The Russians of all people notified us he was leaning to radicalism. The FBI went out and interviewed him and his family. He then left the country and associated with Muslim Radicals in Russia and Chechnya and came back. The FBI did nothing about this, as far as we know. He then did the Boston Marathon bombing.
The San Bernardino Muslim duo who murdered people at a Christmas party apparently was not on the FBI radar, as far as we know. Should they have been? In retrospect yes, but we do not want to be a Monday morning quarterback.
Now we have Omar Mateen. Born and bred in the United States. He makes the Tsarnaev's look like a couple of incompetents. He murdered 47 more people than they did. He was on the FBI radar. Twice, imagine that, he came to its attention. Its agents obviously missed that he was a threat to Americans. We know that they missed it because he murdered 50 people. As far as we know, he fell off its radar but he should not have.
I say as far as we know because if any of the FBI's involvement would lead to embarrassing it then it will be covered up. Were these guys radicalized by the FBI? Were they informants?
Note the coverage. We know papers like the Boston Globe depend on the FBI for inside information. How many others do? Those that do are afraid to criticized their source. The FBI goes on not performing well and Americans suffer because of the Silence of the Media.
Now isn't this something that is very significant that we must think about. At least two of the Muslims who committed probably the worst terrorist acts in America by people who lived in America came to the attention of the FBI. The first question one would ask is how many Muslims who someone feared was becoming or was radicalized have come to the FBI's attention. If it was a million then obviously some would slip through; but if it was in the low thousands, then I suggest the FBI is doing something wrong.
I know what it is. I've got a sense of what is wrong. It goes back to the long-standing lazy FBI approach of loving statistics and using informants and undercover operatives. The NY Times last week told how they operate. They get informants into groups of low intelligence people who they convince to become radicals and purchase the deadly devices give them to the saps who they radicalized, and then arrest them.
It is obvious that most of the people they trap were incapable of doing anything harmful if they did not have the FBI's informant or undercover guys help. It seems the FBI is playing a game building up statistics. It feeds the NY Times it statistics to pretend it is addressing the problem but as we see it is fooling itself. It is not doing anything that really matters. It is time to stop that foolishness.
There is little glory and few statistics in doing the daily hard work of staying on top of guys like Tsarnaev or Mateen. Those are the guys who will cause the damage not those who have to be created. Informants are a lazy cop's tool. The FBI should reduce its reliance on them. The way to stop these terrorists is through hard, unrewarding, and tiring work that involves the daily drudgery of keeping these people in an open status and staying on top of them. .
Two big questions remain:
1. Has there been any instance where a person reported to the FBI as a possible Muslim radical has been brought to justice without an informant or undercover operative? i know of none. If that is the case then the FBI better figure out what hard work is necessary to do that.
2: Were any of these people who did terrorist acts like Tsarnaev or Mateen recruited to be or did become FBI informants? The

MO of the FBI is to get these Muslim radicals and try to flip them. The FBI will never disclose who they have done it to especially if they become rogue. There should be a mechanism where an outside independent authority has the power to find this out.
You will note all the nonsense coming out from retired FBI agents and so-called terrorist experts saying it is "almost impossible" to stop lone wolf attacks. That is true if the person has not been called to the FBI's attention. But these people have been. Keep that it mind. The FBI knew someone thought they were threats. It wrongly stopped watching them. It erred. Unless it admits it and stops the false propaganda we are in trouble.
If we are to be protected the FBI and our media must change. Unfortunately some things never change. So prepare for more attacks and more excuses and more meaningless statistics.

The Whitey Bulger Murders: Goodbye to the Mullen Leadership of South Boston 1 of 4

When does ordinary policing become thought policing? Are you asking the FBI to read minds, and, arrest people for their threatening fantasies? Legally speaking, how's that going to work?
Treating hearsay as admissible would be a fine start. The G could then create prosecutions out of pure whimsy; "he said, he said, he said." The narrative possibilities are endless.
Wa-llahi! Be careful what you wish for. You might get it.
Mateen was a conflicted gay guy who decided to go postal with his identity crisis. He made his declaration of allegiance to ISIS during a 911 call, in order, to get back at Muslims for rejecting his sexual identity. Mateen knew that linking his killing spree to DAESH would create an Islamophobic furor. It's no secret that main-stream Muslim religious thinking disapproves of homosexuality.

Nichols says bombing was FBI op
Detailed confession filed in S.L. about Oklahoma City plot
Published: Wed, Feb. 21, 2007, 12:00 a.m. MST
The only surviving convicted criminal in the April 19, 1995, bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City is saying his co-conspirator, Timothy McVeigh, told him he was taking orders from a top FBI official in orchestrating the bombing.
A declaration from Terry Lynn Nichols, filed in U.S. District Court in Salt Lake City, has proven to be one of the most detailed confessions by Nichols to date about his involvement in the bombing as well as the involvement of others. However, one congressman who has investigated the bombings remains skeptical of Nichols' claims.
The declaration was filed as part of Salt Lake City attorney Jesse Trentadue's pending wrongful death suit against the government for the death of his brother in a federal corrections facility in Oklahoma City. Trentadue claims his brother was killed during an interrogation by FBI agents when agents mistook his brother for a suspect in the Oklahoma City bombing investigation.
The most shocking allegation in the 19-page signed declaration is Nichols' assertion that the whole bombing plot was an FBI operation and that McVeigh let slip during a bout of anger that he was taking instruction from former FBI official Larry Potts.
Potts was no stranger to anti-government confrontations, having been the lead FBI agent at Ruby Ridge in 1992, which led to the shooting death of Vicki Weaver, the wife of separatist Randy Weaver. Potts also was reportedly involved in the 51-day siege of the Branch Davidian compound in Waco, Texas in 1993, which resulted in a fire that killed 81 Branch Davidian followers.
Potts retired from the FBI under intense pressure and criticism for the cover-up of an order to allow agents to shoot anyone seen leaving the Weaver cabin at Ruby Ridge.
When contacted, the FBI's main

The FBI has a mechanism to investigate misconduct
by FBI agents.
It is called the FBI Office of Professional Responsibility
The head of this office is John Conditt.
Very Special Agent John Conditt was
recently sentenced to 12 years in prison
for having sex with 6 year old children.
Very special agent Conditt should not be
confused with very special agent Edward
Rodgers who was in charge of the FBI Child
Abuse program.
Very special agent Edward the penis
was recently sued by his 3 daughters
for molesting them since they were 4 years
Henry Barth says:
Mateen was himself gay? FBI warned by former wife:
"Mateen's first wife, Sitora Yusufiy, whom he met online in 2009 and married soon after, spoke to a Brazilian TV station on Monday, Gawker reported.
Yusufiy was joined on the channel by her Brazilian fiance, Marcio Dias.
Speaking Portuguese, he told the channel that Yusufiy told him Mateen had 'gay tendencies' and had been called gay in front of her on several occasions by his father.
He also said that she didn't believe that Mateen's Islamic beliefs were at the root of his attack.
She had told the FBI that he he was unstable, and that she didn't believe he was part of a terrorist group – despite him telling authorities he was with ISIS before the attack an ISIS later taking credit.
'The FBI asked her not to tell this to the American media,' he told the station."

On Friday night in Orlando at a nightclub, "Voice" singer Christina Grimmie was shot. Her brother, Marcus Grimmie, immediately tackled the shooter. The shooter shot himself.
http://abcnews.go.com/Entertainment/marcus-grimmie-christina-grimmies-brother-hailed-hero-tackling/story?id=39784180
On Saturday night in Orlando at a nightclub, Omar Mateen shot and killed or wounded over one hundred people out of a crowd of three hundred people.
What do the two events have in common? By Florida law, you may not legally carry a firearm into an establishment that serves alcohol – a "Gun Free Zone", a feature of many mass shootings. Obviously, both shooters did not comply with Florida law by being armed in an establishment that served alcohol – so much for gun control preventing murder. If the shooters had survived, they would have been charged with the misdemeanor of possessing a weapon in a prohibited place in addition to the first degree murder charge(s). In Florida, you must leave your weapon in your vehicle before entering a nightclub that serves alcohol.
What was different? Friday night, an unarmed man risked his life and opposed the shooter, stopping the attack. There was only one murder Friday night. On Saturday night, several women complained that they were trampled by the stampeding crowd attempting to escape.
From Florida statute 790.06 License to carry concealed weapon or firearm.—
"(12)(a) A license issued under this section does not authorize any person to openly carry a handgun or carry a concealed weapon or firearm into:
1. Any place of nuisance as defined in s. 823.05;
2. Any police, sheriff, or highway patrol station;
3. Any detention facility, prison, or jail;
4. Any courthouse;
5. Any courtroom, except that nothing in this section would preclude a judge from carrying a concealed weapon or determining who will carry a concealed weapon in his or her courtroom;
6. Any polling place;

FBI Informant
"Orlando terrorist Omar Mateen was investigated by the FBI for terror links twice – and was linked to American suicide bomber Moner Abu Salha.
Agents did not charge Mateen on both occasions and concluded he 'only had minimal contact' with Abu Salha who blew himself up in 2014.
Mateen was also investigated by the FBI for making 'inflammatory remarks' to his colleagues alleging that he had terrorist ties.
He kept his job with a global security firm, G4S, and was able to legally buy guns that were used in the worst mass shooting in American history that killed 50 people inside the Orlando gay nightclub.
Now it is claimed that Mateen also had connections with a former U.S. Marine and undercover FBI agent turned radical Muslim cleric who was released from jail last year despite warnings that he was recruiting potential terrorists.
Marcus Dwayne Robertson, also known as Abu Taubah, managed to convert 36 people to his poisonous version of Islam during his four years in jail, and was considered so dangerous that he was kept shackled with his own security detail away from other inmates.
Mateen was a member of the Timbuktu Seminary, an educational website run by Robertson that police believe is used to dispense his radical teachings, sources told Fox News.
Robertson and several associates were rounded up for questioning early Sunday, sources added.
After serving as a Marine for six years, Robertson went on to become a bank robber, before turning FBI informant after his arrest in exchange for a short prison sentence.
He was dismissed by the FBI in 2007 after allegedly attacking his CIA handler, and then began preaching Islamic extremism.
Thrown in jail for tax fraud back in 2011, prosecutors attempted to have ten years added to his sentence last year after discovering documents preaching terror among his possessions.
However, a judge freed him."

, "'Gaga': The Real Whitey Bulger/ Irish Mob Story" describes a federal judge sealing information concerning the Michael Donahue and Brian Halloran murders. It can be found in the "Kevin Weeks" and the "Boston FBI Corruption" chapters. The latter gives evidence that implicates two FBI agents. I suggest you and your readers be the first (non-participants) to understand this blatant FBI/DOJ corruption.
Rather Not says:
Great to see you back. I remember the incident that you are talking about from your posts a few years ago.
Agents inexplicably showed up at your brother's girlfriend's mothers house minutes after the waterfront shooting of Donahue and Halloran.
Very shady. Some of these others get lost in the shadow of Morris and Connolly….Montanari, the Gianturcos………..
Bob Gardner says:
"At least two of the Muslims who committed probably the worst terrorist acts in America by people who lived in America came to the attention of the FBI. "
Without any doubt, the worst terrorist act in that category was committed by Timothy McVeigh, in Oklahoma City.
mtc9393 says:
Did McVeigh come to the FBI's attention prior to his act? You may be right on that point if he did.
The Third Terrorist: The Middle East Connection to the Oklahoma City Bombing Paperback
by Jayna Davis (Author)
In this alarming book, reporter Jayna Davis tells of her amazing journey leading from the smoking rubble of the Murrah Federal Building to the sleazy haunts of John Doe #2, the mysterious Middle East suspect who the Justice Department was at first desperate to find? And then insisted never existed.
With a reporter's practiced skill, Jayna Davis unscrambles the convoluted and distorted facts of the Oklahoma City bombing to present a compelling case that proves Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols did not act alone and in fact worked in tandem with Middle East connections that lead directly to Saddam Hussein's personal army.

http://scotthorton.org/tag/jesse-trentadue/
Jesse Trentadue is an attorney whose brother allegedly committed suicide when in custody after the FBI arrested him on being suspected of involvement in the Oklahoma bombing. His investigation, fought tooth and nail in court, leads him to the conclusion that his brother, who looked a lot like one of the real suspects, was killed while in custody. His conclusion is that the FBI set up a sting and the bombers got ahead of the FBI and pulled off the terrorist act before the FBI heroes could save the day. There are four interviews in all detailing the struggle to obtain documents and all the roadblocks the FBI has thrown up against FOIA requests.
Jeome says:
what exactly does the FBI do? Oh yeah, thats right. COLLECT INFORMATION. F*****G pathetic incompetent waste of tax payers money aspect of our government. Sad that these 50 people lost their lives . Just tragic and again the FBI fails miserably. Same organization that allowed John Connolly to be sentenced for 40 years. I am starting to wonder if some of the conspiracy theories are right. This travesty is unquestionably another wake up call to get tough on gun control but it wont happen because this is a Capitalist nation where the bottom line is $$$$ and not human life.

Call it a tax: The Council voted to merge a fee and a tax it collects on its own utilities into a single tax. Of course, when it taxes its own utilities — those of the water, sewer and stormwater systems — it is effectively taxing the ratepayers of that system, as the cost is passed along.
The city's fee known as PILOT (payment in lieu of taxes) was created to charge the city-owned utilities because they are exempt from property taxes. Others have called it a "stealth tax." In any event, now PILOT is dead, consolidated with the utility tax, thanks to the vote Wednesday.
What that means: your utility bill will now include a 15.5 percent tax on water and 20 percent tax on sewer and stormwater, respectively. Councilman Roy Runyon pointed out that it raises a little under $5 million for city coffers each year.
Both he and City Councilwoman Leslie Daugs asked if the utility tax could be placed, as a number, on residents' utility bills. That question went unanswered. When Runyon pushed the issue, Council members Dino Davis and Greg Wheeler stopped him, saying the issue should be brought up before the city's public works committee meeting as "housekeeping." Davis and Runyon continued arguing until Wheeler, the Council's president, was forced to go to the gavel to get them to stop.
Joe Keller, an engineer for the city (pictured at podium above) voiced opposition to the plan, saying it placed a larger, inequitable burden on builders of single-family homes. City officials disagreed, saying the fees were fair by charging developers by what their developments would use. Daugs was concerned it could affect rates of home ownership in the city.
City fees: Some city fees are increasing under the 2016 budget. Red light tickets in 2016 will increase from $124 to $136. Parks fees are going up across the board. The fee for a grave site at Ivy Green Cemetery, for instance, will increase from $1,224 to $1,346. Wyn Birkenthal, the city's parks director, said the increase was necessary to cover parks costs.
Result: 5-0 vote in favor.
Conference center debt extension: As revenues for the $1.1 million expansion of the Kitsap Conference Center have not materialized, the city asked the council to authorize extending out the debt on its $500,000 loan that helped pay for the project. The money was supposed to be paid back to the city's $4.2 million vehicle fund in five years; now it will take until 2034.
Federal block grants: The Council is close to completing its pivot from using its yearly federal block grant money as an open process to one specifically targeted to downtown redevelopment. Because two Council members — Jerry McDonald and Eric Younger — were absent, Greg Wheeler said the Council will wait to vote on the five year plan at a special meeting next Monday. Wheeler added he had to recuse himself from the vote because he serves on the board of Kitsap Community Resources, which is a possible recipient of the funds.
The Council will also vote on the funding recommendations, which include $58,500 for Kitsap Community Resource's BE$T program and its weatherization and home repair programs, as well as $235,000 to replace facades on two buildings and retrofit another on Fourth Street.
The Council also heard from Wes Larson and Mike Brown, leaders of Sound West Group, which is hoping to secure that $235,000 to do the Fourth Street work.
The budget: The Council held the first of two hearings on the 2016 city budget. Mayor Patty Lent's budget's largely "status quo" with few changes. The city will also be raising property taxes in the city by one percent, as is the maximum allowed under state law. The budget will be voted on in December.
Washington Avenue: City Engineer Tom Knuckey announced some delays to the Washington Avenue project. The issue this time is that crews from Puget Sound Energy, which is putting much power on the street underground, got pulled away for Tuesday's windstorm. They probably won't be back on the project until after Thanksgiving. The project is still expected to wrap up by the end of

Living with Hepatitis C
Stories of stigma and getting cured
By Alaa Wasfi, RN, BSN and Sam Forsythe Photography by John Gress Jul 8, 2021
Everyone deserves to be looked in the face and understood—to the best of our abilities
Being the vulnerable human beings we all are, we assume things about chronic conditions such as hepatitis C. We assume it is a disease of Baby Boomers, of people who use needles. Ultimately, it's something that won't happen to us.
Because of such myths, many patients fall through the cracks. As health care providers, nurses, case managers, or whatever the title, we think of ourselves as "community educators." We talk and talk while patients look at us with wide eyes, nodding hesitantly. Are we really listening and processing their stories? What can we learn from them?
Hepatitis C in brief
As an infection of the liver that is caused by a virus transmitted through contaminated blood, hepatitis C (HCV), if left untreated, can lead to serious, and oftentimes irreversible, liver damage. Until a few years ago, hepatitis C treatment required weekly injections and oral medications that many people living with HCV could not take because of other health problems or unacceptable side effects. But with the bloom of drug options, chronic HCV is now promisingly curable with oral medications that are taken every day for two to three months with minimal side effects, if any.
Access to a cure, however, is still elusive.
Although 30% of people self-clear the virus spontaneously and antiviral medications are 98% effective in curing chronic infections, access to testing and treatment remain staggered. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that 71 million people have chronic HCV globally, with only 19% aware of their diagnosis. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimated 2.4 million people were living with HCV in the U.S. in 2014, and that the death toll associated with HCV reached 19,659. Because this figure was based on death certificates, which often underreport HCV, it is likely that the death toll is actually higher. These estimates reflect a mortality rate that surpasses the total number of deaths attributed to 60 other infectious diseases combined, including HIV, pneumococcal complications, and tuberculosis. These deaths are a testament to our systemic mistakes in the proper testing and swift treatment of HCV.
Although badly needed, HCV treatments are very expensive, costing about $84,000 for a full 12-course treatment of the latest drug. In one analysis, if all 300,000 Medicare patients projected to be diagnosed by 2015 were to seek treatment with the latest drugs after screening, the total expenditure could exceed $25 billion. That does not include the cost of lab appointments, doctor visits, and other fees. For those that are not eligible for insurance this is an impossible amount of money to pay.
Insurance no guarantee
These cost barriers are not altogether eliminated for those who are insured. Janice Brockman was diagnosed with HCV during a 2016 hospital visit. She was surprised by the news, but was immediately informed there was an effective treatment and given a referral for a specialist at a prominent Chicago hospital.
After a few months of follow-up visits and consultations, she was told she was not eligible for treatment because her insurance, an Illinois managed Medicaid plan, would not pay for it.
This story represents one of the primary barriers to HCV treatment in the U.S., the restrictions that plague access and often result in patients developing permanent liver damage before they receive treatment.
In 2019, these restrictions were lifted in Illinois as a result of legal advocates filing a lawsuit against the state, but prior to this point Medicaid plans would not pay for treatment unless a person completed additional testing, urine drug screens

, and showed high levels of liver scarring and inflammation. Hepatitis C-related liver damage is typically a slow process, and these restrictions created systems where patients would wait for years to develop enough damage so they could qualify for treatment, leaving them with irreversible liver scarring that increased their risk of liver cancer. This is what happened to Brockman.
'I couldn't attend family functions'
After three attempts to get treatment from three different care centers, Brockman started her medications in 2020 through our clinic, Howard Brown Health, in Chicago. Shortly into her first round of treatment, she started showing significant side effects and was sent to the hospital, where she was discovered to have a cancerous tumor attached to her liver. The tumor caused the side effects, and having completed an ultrasound of her liver a few months prior, it was a decidedly recent development.

Brockman completed HCV treatment after seeing an oncologist, and today she is now cured of HCV and her cancer is in remission. However, this cancer was likely avoidable if she had been provided treatment soon after her HCV diagnosis. She also suffered through years of HCV-related symptoms that significantly impaired her life, including extreme fatigue and anemia, for which she was regularly hospitalized to receive blood transfusions.
Now that she's cured she realizes just how severely the HCV had affected her. "I feel incredible now, after years of feeling horrible. I couldn't attend family functions, parties, anything. I missed out on so much because all I wanted to do was lay up in bed."
Although Illinois lifted its Medicaid restrictions, the same restrictions still exist in many states and represent a huge disparity in who is able to access treatment, and sadly, who is more likely to die of liver disease.
A special collaboration
The many barriers affecting access to HCV treatment and cure are of special concern for people of immigrant experience. At Howard Brown, we strive to reduce the common language and insurance barriers experienced by this community. In part we've done this by partnering with Mongolian community representatives to better support Mongolian speakers specifically, because of their high rates of HCV and HBV.
Bayarmaa Shravdorj found she was living with HCV when she came in for a screening. Because HCV frequently shows no symptoms, she was unaware of her status, but unfortunately, she was painfully aware of what it meant. "I had some minor information about it from family and friends. My dad and younger siblings died from hepatitis viruses."
Shravdorj's loss is tragic, yet common. The majority of our Mongolian patients report the death of at least one immediate family member to hepatitis-related liver disease. It is because of this that the community is engaged in finding resources. However, many care facilities can't accommodate Mongolian speakers or treat individuals without insurance, and people have a hard time even getting screened.
On the road: Bayarmaa Shravdorj with her rig.
Fortunately, we have been able to access medications for this group by using pharmaceutical assistance programs, which is how we were able to offer treatment immediately to Shravdorj.
"When I found out I had hepatitis C at Howard Brown Health ... I felt overwhelmed," she said. "I didn't know what to do, but they told me they offered treatment and I embraced it with open arms and was very happy. I told my family I had hepatitis C and they were very supportive. Howard Brown Health told me it was fully treatable and they were very supportive too."
HIV/HCV co-infection
As for people living with HIV (PLWH), they are at a high risk for not only contracting HCV but also developing liver damage at a faster rate. The Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) reports that of the PLWH in the U.S., about a quarter are co-infected with HCV, and those who are co-infected are over three times more likely to develop liver disease, liver failure, and liver-related death. For injection drug users living with HIV, the rate of HCV co-infection is about 75%.
Although we know the risk of co-infection, we still

lack sufficient HCV screening among PLWH. At an STI clinic in Miami, only about 15% of participants were screened for HCV while 83% had been screened for HIV; and 98% of the participants had been previously screened for HIV as well.
For our co-infected community, universal screening and quick administration of treatment are particularly necessary. All PLWH should be screened for HCV upon entry into primary care, and providers should establish a testing routine based on the risk factors patients present.
Around the world, incarcerated people experience a higher incidence of HCV than the general population. However, they have routinely struggled to access medications and medical treatment.
The primary risk factor associated with this infection rate is injection drug use, followed by illicit tattooing, sexual behavior, and to a lesser extent, sharing of toiletries. People using drugs inside the prison system do not have access to sterile use supplies, contributing to the high transmission rate via injection use.
Of the participants Howard Brown has treated, multiple people have identified that their most likely exposures to HCV were during their time in prison, and all have attested to the lack of treatment available. The reasons reported for how and why our formerly incarcerated patients did not receive adequate HCV care vary. Some reported that testing for HCV was not available until they were about to leave or had just left prison. Other factors included lack of general access to medical care, being told they are not sick enough, and denial of medication requests due to the length of their sentence.
All of these have the same harmful effect: patients endure an unnecessary disease progression, and other inmates' risk of HCV exposure is increased.
Injection drug use
In the midst of an opioid epidemic, we must acknowledge the most considerable contributor to HCV transmission in the U.S., injection drug use. In 2018 the CDC HCV Surveillance Report showed that a majority of people are unable to identify how they were exposed, but of those who can, 72% report current or past injection drug use.
The opioid crisis has especially affected a younger age group, demonstrated by a 23% increase in new infections among people aged 20–39. In the city of Chicago alone, the infection rate among people who were born after 1986 increased by 288% between 2013–2017. Many state Medicaid systems require urine drug screens and six months of sobriety to be eligible for HCV treatment. People using drugs and alcohol are more likely to experience a lack of stability in housing and income, making strict eligibility criteria difficult to meet. There's also been a trend of hospitals and clinical practices imposing their own sobriety measures in pursuit of treating patients who they believe will be more successful.
It is important to note that there is no immunity gained by HCV treatment. We can cure the infection a person has, but they will not be immune moving forward and require education on how to avoid re-infection after treatment. This re-infection principle is the primary argument for not treating people who actively use drugs, in addition to the assumptions made by clinicians about their ability to engage in medical care.
However, current national HCV treatment guidelines recommend the treatment of patients using drugs. Even with the potential risk of re-infection, by treating everyone with HCV we are lowering the risk of community transmission and ensuring patients do not develop liver disease.

Brockman with Alaa Wasfi
I feel incredible now, after years of feeling horrible. I couldn't attend family functions, parties, anything. I missed out on so much because all I wanted to do was lay up in bed.
Effective HCV treatment requires an acceptance of all clients, and a multidisciplinary method of support. At Howard Brown we strive to maintain accessibility by offering treatment to everyone who comes in regardless of insurance, documentation, active drug and alcohol use, housing stability, or lapses in engagement. There is a long-established national trend of treatment denial based on these factors. If we have any hope of eliminating HCV, it's crucial to treat all patients. In order to see that all clients achieve a cure, our team consists of a pharmacist, nurse, and case managers

Tying Son's Curriculum to Home Life Is Great Motivator
by Leanna Landsmann
A+ Advice for Parents | March 4th, 2013
Q: My fifth-grade son, Brennan, slides by in school and shrugs off homework, but likes his teacher. Threats don't work. The teacher wrote that he's smart and could do better if he were more motivated. Isn't that her job?
A: She's doing her job; she's reaching out to you for help. Make an appointment to see her. Tell Brennan you're meeting with her to find out how to make learning more fun for him. Invite him to come. That might boost his motivation.
Parental actions and expectations have a huge influence on a student's desire to learn. The trick is in knowing how to use that influence. First, ditch the technique you're using.
"Negative outcomes for negative behavior don't work," says Albuquerque educator Jane Bluestein, Ph.D., author of "The Parent's Little Book of Lists: DOs and DON'Ts of Effective Parenting."
"Rather than say, 'If you don't do your homework, you can't play video games,' switch to positive consequences," she says. "If he does his homework for a week, let him choose the menu for a weekend dinner. Sure it's a bribe, but there is no such thing as unmotivated behavior. Every decision we make is influenced by an anticipated outcome. We either choose the option that offers the most meaningful benefit or the option that protects us from some form of loss.
"Choosing dinner is a meaningful benefit -- it celebrates his achievement, provides family fun, gives him a sense of control and reinforces good behavior."
Ask Brennan's teacher how you can connect his fifth-grade curriculum to his home life.
"The more kids see the connections between what they learn in class to their experiences outside of school, the more interest and pleasure they'll take in learning," says Kathy Seal, co-author with Deborah Stipek, Ph.D., of "Motivated Minds: Raising Children to Love Learning."
Talk with him about what he's learning in class. Is he studying the solar system? Share a video or read an article on the recent meteorite that landed on Earth. Is he studying the weather? Watch the Weather Channel with him for a week and graph weather where friends and relatives live. Find more activities to reinforce learning at home at greatschools.org.
Linking school to life also means asking children to apply knowledge to everyday tasks at home, says Seal. If the family needs a new washer, ask Brennan to research models, prices, consumer ratings, warranties and chart it before you head out to stores. Discuss his analysis with him: What does sales tax and delivery add to prices?
"The more you involve him in using his learning, the more empowered he will feel," says Bluestein. "Demonstrating our competence is a great motivator!"
Specific encouragement is more motivating than general praise, Bluestein advises.
"Parents tend to overpraise and undervalue achievement," she says. "For example, if Brennan gets a good grade on a science project, don't say, 'You're so smart!' Recognize the specific accomplishment.
"Try, 'I'm impressed that you know the steps in the scientific method. And you learned to spell hypothesis! It took me years to learn it!'"

She has served on education commissions, visited classrooms in 49 states to observe best practices, and founded Principal for a Day in New York City.)
Kids Must Add Nonfiction to Their Reading Habits
A+ Advice for Parents | February 25th, 2013
Q: Our school is giving students more nonfiction assignments and wants parents to make it a priority at home. My seventh-grade daughter loves vampire books, "The Hunger Games," and "Diary of a Wimpy Kid," but says nonfiction is boring. Why are schools pushing nonfiction?
A: There's been a decline in students

' ability to read increasingly complex texts, especially nonfiction. One reason is a diet of easy fiction. Only 15 percent of middle school assigned reading is nonfiction. At the elementary level, it's half that. Students aren't developing comprehension skills or vocabulary required for success in math, science and history as they move up the grades.
Nor are many students challenging themselves in their reading choices. "The Hunger Games" and "Diary of a Wimpy Kid" books are written at a fifth-grade level. Much of what your daughter chooses to read is two levels below her grade.
She's not alone. "A recent study by Renaissance Learning shows that a majority of students in grades one through three read at or above their grade band," says children's author and reading researcher Michael Milone, Ph.D.
"Beyond this point, the percentage drops precipitously," he adds. "By grade six, most students are reading books below their grade band. By grade eight, a relatively small percentage reads within their grade band. This doesn't reflect students' abilities, just the books they choose to read or are assigned."
To improve this picture, the new Common Core State Standards shift the balance of fiction to nonfiction as students advance through school. New guidelines suggest that by the end of fourth grade, students' reading should be half fiction and half nonfiction. By the end of 12th grade, the balance should be 30/70.
Show your daughter that nonfiction is far from boring, says Jonathan Rosenbloom, editor of Time Learning Ventures.
"Biographies, autobiographies, opinion pieces, essays, speeches, memoires, almanac entries, and journalism that tells great stories are examples of nonfiction students now encounter," he says.
To promote nonfiction reading at home, start with what your daughter likes. Share reviews of vampire books and movies, says Rosenbloom. "Find profiles of authors she reads, such as Suzanne Collins, or behind-the-scenes reports on favorite book-based movies ... Look for stories about Hunger Games star Jennifer Lawrence."
He also suggests you subscribe to magazines that cover topics she's interested in.
Develop the habit of reading a short news article with her every day. Point out the characteristics of nonfiction writing, Rosenbloom advises.
"Show how headlines, photos, captions, charts, maps and graphs aid understanding and advance the stories," he says.
When you share nonfiction with your daughter, you not only expand her interests, you're preparing her for college and beyond, says Rosenbloom.
"Novels relax us, but more than 80 percent of what we read as adults is 'informational text,'" he says. "It's a fact that bringing a little nonfiction to the breakfast table can have a big impact on her life as a reader."
Kids' Social Skills Key to Success Later in Life
Q: Our school's parent council reviewed the Common Core State Standards and found they don't include teaching study skills and habits that help kids become good students. Is there any research on this?
A: Your parent council deserves an A for raising this important question. Kids who lack the ability to set goals, finish tasks on time or work on a team -- who disrespect teachers or throw up their hands when they face a challenge -- will find school difficult no matter how smart they are or how high a district sets its academic standards for math, reading or science.
There is an encouraging body of research on the skills you're looking for -- called "social and emotional learning" (SEL). They are sometimes referred to as non-cognitive, or "soft" skills.
Much of the research comes from the Collaborative for Academic, Social and Emotional Learning (CASEL), led by Roger P. Weissberg, Ph.D., at the University of Illinois at Chicago. CASEL evaluates SEL programs and helps states and districts integrate effective ones into the curriculum.
The SEL movement is gaining momentum across the nation thanks to strong evidence that when educators explicitly teach SEL skills, it can improve students' positive behavior and reduce negative behavior.
Data from schools that include SEL instruction show that these students have stronger academic success, health and well-being. SEL programs can boost students' grades and improve their attitudes toward school. One study showed that students who received SEL instruction improved an average of 11 percentile points on standardized achievement tests compared to students in the control group.

Scenario: Non-profit company with 15 users including 2 technicians looking to reduce the total cost of ownership of their computer systems.
The main goal is to free up the technicians' time to allow them to spend more time innovating new systems and software instead of troubleshooting the old ones. Part of the total cost of ownership in this case is the opportunity cost of the lost software and product development time not just in dollars but also in moving the company strategically where it needs to go to survive. Total cost of ownership is a concept that has been the downfall of many through the ages. A great warlord was known to give elephants as gifts to his enemies. They would accept out of pride but would be brought to ruin by the cost of maintaining such a massive ego…err…creature. Instead of supporting their army or people, they would pour their wealth into maintaining this symbol of power and wealth until it was all gone.
Computing power doubles every 18 months. Three years between upgrades means that work requiring significant computational resources will be 4x more efficient. As no computer always uses its resources to a maximal potential, this means that it takes a significant factor (~4x) of increased performance to actually impact work efficiency. If your computer was only 10% more powerful, would your productivity really go up 10%? Probably not. You would only save 10% of your time on the tasks where you are waiting for the computer to finish something before moving on. This is not a majority of the time in most usage scenarios. Therefore you would not expect to see a significant increase in productivity until there was a huge improvement in to computing that changed your computing expectations and gave you room to change your work patterns. An example could be video editing. If your final render of a 5 minute movie was 8 hours, would a 10% CPU boost change your work pattern? Not likely. You would still edit until midnight and leave it to render until breakfast. You would still only get 1-2 videos done per day. But if you had a 300% boost, you could render several videos per day. If you upgrade too often then the amount of time involved in making that transition increases your total cost of ownership without adding a whole lot of value.
Average life expectancy is 5-7 years with optimal quality and care. Build quality is important here. LCDs usually fail because of power supply or problems other than the backlight. Monitors should be set to turn off after 1 hour without use. Frequent power cycles will reduce the backlight life significantly. Buying cheap doesn't improve your overall cost of ownership if you are constantly supporting and replacing monitors.
After doing some research (PCWorld, CNet, Lenovo.com) I'm leaning towards buying as much as possible from Lenovo (was IBM). If price must be considered first then I would recommend Dell. For our company, we ended up going with Dell over Lenovo because of the flexibility and pricing of their server configurations.
Buying from a single brand for everything should help reduce the number and types of problems that you face. I have found that supporting custom built and stock computers from a variety of manufacturers means that I have to have a wide variety of parts on hand and have to spend a lot of time tracking down really weird bugs and incompatibilities. In real life, two products from different brands that both claim to conform to the same specification and are both well rated and reviewed sometimes simply will not play well together. If you can find a brand that works for most situations, stick with that brand even if it means paying a bit more up front sometimes. You will find it easier to find the source of a problem when all of your devices start having the same issue at once or when just one of 10 is doing something weird. There will also be a large community of users just like yourself who are also or have already had the same problem and will help you solve it. If you must build custom computers, build at least 3 and make them all exactly the same.
There are no clear winners in the reliability of hard drives. Western Digital Caviar Black (5yr warranty) has been recommended often. Also, slower disks that are enterprise class, in raid 1 or 10 configurations should improve reliability. As SSDs go, in sufficient quality (Intel, Toshiba, and Samsung) they are more reliable than traditional HDDs. New HDDs should be stress tested using Bart's Stuff Test or Hitachi Drive Fitness Test. Any drive that passes either test should be reliable for 4-5 years. It is unknown how long the current SSDs will last in

Amazonia's future: Eden or degraded landscapes?
Reversing biodiversity loss
Thomas E. Lovejoy
The ride had started in the pitch black dark of 4:00 in the morning - driving north through the forest on the highway to far distant Venezuela. Not long after 6:30, after a walk in from a muddy side road and a climb of 40 meters I emerged atop a tower with a view in all directions of unbroken forest canopy.
There was so much green that at first it seemed a blur, but that quickly dissolved into a mosaic of individual tree crowns in more shades of green and with more shapes of leaves than one ever imagined could exist. I strained - mostly unsuccessfully - to find matching tree crowns. This was primeval Amazon rainforest brimming with myriad life forms - and to the novitiate: partly heard, and mostly not seen.
My eye continued searching for possible repetition of leaf types that could indicate two trees might be of the same species, and my ear was distracted by many sounds (birds, and other - mostly unknown to me). Yet what was truly striking were dozens and dozens of plumes of moisture emerging from the forest canopy - the consequence of rains that had just preceded us. The amazing hydrological cycle of the Amazon was temporarily visible.
Weather moves from east to west in the Amazon. That led Brazilian scientist Eneas Salati and colleagues in the mid-1970s1 to examine ratios of oxygen isotopes in rainwater sampled from the Atlantic coast to the Peruvian border. They revealed the Amazon produces half of its own rainfall by recycling moisture several times before reaching the high wall of the Andes. There, air masses rise and cool and the moisture precipitates out into the 20% of the world's river water that forms the Amazon river system.
Shattered lay the old dogma that vegetation was simply the consequence of climate and had no influence on it whatsoever. The initial moisture arriving from the tropical Atlantic falls as rain. Most of it returns to the westward moving airmass through evaporation from the complex surfaces of the forest and transpiration through the leaves – in part revealed by the plumes of moisture that emanate from the forest after rainfall. Farther west it falls again as rain and the cycle repeats itself.

At that time, this revelation raised the question of how much deforestation could cause the hydrological cycle to degrade because it is so driven by trees and leaves. There was no way to immediately answer that question and while the extent of deforestation that could trigger it seemed very far off, it was clear the future of the Amazon depends very much on maintaining the integrity of the cycle.
Today almost a half century later we know much more about the hydrological cycle and its importance not only for the Amazon but also for every country in South America except Chile (which lies in the rain shadow west of the southern Andes). Beyond being critical for the Amazon and a significant portion of terrestrial biodiversity, it also benefits agriculture in Central Brazil and farther south and contributes to urban reservoirs. It is clearly an integral part of the South American climatic system and needs to be respected and treated with great care2 and 3.
The immediate lesson is that the Amazon and its great forest have to be managed as a system and that individual decisions must be made within that context. The staggering Amazon river system needs to be treated similarly. Immensely large sediment loads are carved off the Andes annually and carried by a number of the rivers. The rivers flood so extensively that they overflow their banks and flood the adjacent floodplain forest, providing life-giving nutrients from the freshly weathered rocks of the mountains.
Together with the permanent wetlands, the flooded forests constitute 20% of the entire Amazon. They are also of huge importance for a number of fish species which depend on feeding in the adjacent floodplain forests and thereby benefit from a significant transfer of nutrients from the terrestrial to the aquatic ecosystem.
There are a number of large catfish species the life cycles of which range from the estuary to the headwaters. They

are an important source of animal protein for local populations. That of course can be severely disrupted by large hydro-electric installations, whereas run-of-river designs can protect their migratory pathways.
The Amazon as a whole is renowned for the greatest concentration of biodiversity on Earth, so it is not surprising that the river system itself has an estimated 3,000 species of fish -- more than any other river system in the world4. In addition to the large catfish, and the specialists which use floodplain forests at the time of high water, they include the aquarium fishes, essentially little jewels with fins. Today those are harvested from the wild in a sustainable fashion.
The Amazon has an estimated 15,000 species of trees, and there are currently 1300 described species of birds5. There are many spectacular birds and plenty of remaining mysteries like the Diademed Parrot (Amazona diadema) which has a fairly small range and can regularly be seen near the tower at the start of this essay – but completely disappears for three months a year.
New bird species are being described on a regular basis with real surprises like the first jay recorded in the southwestern Amazon lowlands (in islands of grassy habitat within the forest). Birds endemic to the extensive forests between the large tributaries long described as subspecies turn out to be full species: the very similar forms sing distinctive songs on opposite sides of major tributaries and have been elevated to distinct species.

Not all Amazon tributaries carry heavy sediment loads but almost all those that originate in the Andes do. Those sediments are of fundamental importance to floodplain agriculture which provides a stark contrast to the destructive forms of agriculture based on deforestation (cattle and soy). There is a system of "pulse-agriculture" – of quite some antiquity - that takes advantage of annual deposits of fresh silt during the lower water months of year. Run-of-river hydro-electric dams can protect these agricultural systems as well.
Not long after the arrival of Europeans in the Amazon, as elsewhere in the Americas, indigenous populations crashed from the introduced pathogens. Before that happened, however, the chronicles of Francisco de Orellana's6 expedition in the first part of the 16th century show they were scarcely ever out of view of native settlements as they made their way down the river. Yet the earlier accounts receded from public memory and only recently has the extent of indigenous occupation and the sophistication of their use of Amazon biodiversity in support of their well-being become clear.
Even so it is likely that the majority of that population was never far from the rivers which were the means of transport as well as an important food source (primarily fish). Their agricultural systems also included ones where they enriched the soils. They created localized very fertile "terra preta" (black soils) which maintain their fertility to this day.
I remember quite clearly my first impression of the Amazon rainforest in June 1965, namely just endless green -- and where were the animals? For a moment it was disappointing, puzzling, and not living up to the diversity for which it is famous. Gradually it became clearer how complex in structure it is and how most animals behave cryptically to avoid predation. Soon one's eye, ears and mind adjust and you begin to see elements of the myriad detail. Some of the first things that catch one's attention are insects. A flash of iridescent blue of a fleeting Morpho butterfly perhaps.
The famous biologist and ant specialist Edward O. Wilson once said to me he wanted to go to "the serious tropics". That is how I came to host him at my research project in the central Amazon. I decided to accompany him for his first day and evening to try to see the forest from his perspective. It was a revelation. It was as if he possessed the ant and termite equivalent of the Midas touch: literally everywhere he stopped to look there were ants and termites, bearing out the statement that there is more biomass of ants and termites than any other kind of animals in the rain forest. It was capped off by an evening march of leaf-cutting ants, each carrying a green "sail" of

Many Amazon species occur at very low densities and essentially are always rare. Yet there are so many rare plants and animals that the odds are that one will see some of them. One time late in the afternoon I was walking on the trail to my favorite camp when I caught the fluttering of a butterfly out of the corner of my eye. A Morpho I thought, but a few steps later I realized it wings were not beating like a Morpho. So I followed what I first thought was a very large pale butterfly until it landed on a tree trunk. Then I was able to see that it was an enormous speckled white moth. It was in fact one of the largest moths and exceedingly rare: known as the White Witch (Thysania agripinna) it is so rare that its caterpillar stage has yet to be described by science.
The Amazon is the single greatest repository of terrestrial biological diversity. It is close in dimensions to the 48 contiguous United States. It also has a tremendous stock of carbon – perhaps 100 billion tons (including soils)7. Keeping that in the Amazon is essential from a climate change perspective. Yet to value the Amazon for its carbon is like valuing a computer chip for its silicon. The world needs the Amazon for its biodiversity and its carbon.
The Amazon was pretty sparsely settled in the centuries after European discovery, and was mostly territory for exploring naturalists and religious figures interested in converting the indigenous peoples (a process that continues to this day). It became largely occupied by mixed-origin people who were quite skilled and knowledgeable about how to put together an existence based to a great degree on knowledge acquired from the original indigenous peoples.
The Amazon had a brief moment in the spotlight when Goodyear's discovery of vulcanization transformed rubber into a highly useful product - good for bicycle and automobile tyres and more. Basically, all rubber came from the Amazon from a tree (Hevea brasiliensis) that was naturally dispersed through the forest to minimize impacts of natural diseases. For a few decades the Amazon countries and particularly Brazil had the global monopoly on rubber production.
Manaus, 1000 km upriver became one of the wealthiest cities in South America. A friend of mine from the port city of Belem had a grandfather who shipped his stiff collars to Paris to be starched. In 1876 seeds were shipped by Henry Wickham to the world center of economic botany, namely the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew. They became the basis for the entire southeast Asian rubber industry. There in the absence of natural enemies it was able to grow rubber trees in plantation form and undercut the Amazon market.
The Amazon is actually part of nine different countries and for all of them, it has always been a frontier, maybe a place for science, a place for extracting resources like Brazil nuts, but not offering much in the way of economic opportunity. Starting in the 1960s, particularly in Brazil, a mindset developed that it would be smart to occupy the Amazon to prevent some other power from doing so.
Most of the large highway (e.g., trans-Amazon highway system) and hydro-electric projects date from that time. I believe a lot of what transpired would not have stood up to thorough economic scrutiny. Most proceeded using government funding and led to widespread unintended consequences of spontaneous deforestation and colonization starting with the very first, the Belem-Brasilia highway between the port city and the new capital. There has been more forest destruction in Brazil than in other Amazon countries, although the challenge exists in all of them.
Starting in the 1990s with the G-7 pilot program for the Brazilian Rainforests, major international funding managed by the World Bank became available to encourage more sustainable trajectories in the Amazon. Brazil having invited the Earth Summit to take place in Rio de Janeiro in 1992 began giving higher priority to the environment, biodiversity and the Amazon.
In 1965 there was just one national park in the Amazon (Canaima in Venezuela) and one demarcated indigenous area (The Xingu in Brazil). Today about half of the entire Amazon is under some form of protection roughly equally divided between standard conservation areas and demarcated indigenous reserves. Norway and Germany in particular underwrote an Amazon fund to assist in

reducing deforestation and developing sustainable alternatives. The World Wildlife Fund and the World bank put together two major funding packages (The Amazon Region Protected Area Program = ARPA, and then ARPA 2) to assist Brazil in setting up and managing these areas. Whatever the imperfections it is a remarkable achievement.
The current Brazilian government tends mostly to see the forest and its biodiversity as of little value compared to economic activities like cattle, soy (referred to as bio-economy) or mining. In contrast, the Amazon's highest value is in development that is based on forest biodiversity, and in maintaining the hydrologic cycle for the Amazon and the South American climate system.
The latter has become a critical matter. What at first seemed an unbelievably distant possibility of a tipping point where the hydrological cycle would no longer function normally is right at hand. Deforestation which originally seemed the sole driver needing to be managed is now interacting synergistically in negative ways with climate change and the extensive use of fire8.
It has been clear for quite some time that the southern and eastern Amazon are vulnerable to conversion to savannah-like vegetation with enormous loss of biodiversity and value to local people. The same drying trend that would cause that will also lead to diminished water supplies for hydro-electric projects in that part of Brazil.
Carlos Nobre and I believe there are already indications that the tipping point is close9 - and needs to be addressed right now with pro-active reforestation to build back the margin of safety. There have been historic droughts in 2005, 2010 and 2016/17 which can be considered the first flickerings of the tipping point. In the southern Brazilian Amazon the dry season is a month longer than historically. There has been a shift in forest composition in favor of lower rainfall tree species indicating the vegetation is already starting to shift.
While the hydrological cycle is important for the entire Amazon (and the continental climate system) what happens in Brazil is particularly critical. That is simply because the cycle starts in the east and carries moisture westward. The impacts of dieback will be most dramatic in southern and eastern Brazilian Amazonia.
Currently the entire Amazon forest is about 17% deforested whereas the Brazilian portion is 20% deforested. Of that latter about 23% is abandoned and in varying states of recovery10.
Deforestation had always been part of the Amazon situation but was relatively minor until the advent of major infrastructure projects which provided access to otherwise remote forest. The Belem-Brasilia highway led the way in the 1960s as part of a larger TransAmazon Highway system. There was major impact revealed first by satellite imagery in the 1980s around a fairly well designed but poorly executed project in Rondonia11.
A more worrisome plan, the Initiative for the Integration of the Regional Infrastructure of South America (IIRSA), was launched by the 12 South American countries in 2000. It included highway plans that would cut through the heart of the Amazon.
In the 1990s significant assistance began to be provided through the G-7 Pilot Program for the Brazilian Rainforests managed by the World Bank. The Brazilian government made environment a priority, including hosting the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro in 1992. Brazil has generally welcomed international assistance (e.g. the Amazon Fund provided by Norway and Germany and the two Amazon Region Protected Area (ARPA) which helped consolidate and management of the significant number of new protected areas and demarcated indigenous reserves).
From 2005 through 2012 concerted effort to reduce illegal deforestation was demonstrably successful although it did begin to rise toward the end of the worker party's time in power (See Figure)12. With the election in 2018 of Jair Bolsonaro, there was considerable anti-environmental rhetoric and enforcement efforts were curbed and weakened. Deforestation not only rose but so did extensive use of fire. While fire has always been part of how Amazon farmers manage the land, especially after deforestation, it is not a normal part of Amazon ecology because standing forest is too wet to burn.

ened to the extent of the problem when so much smoke was blown into Sao Paulo that street lights were turned on early. That drew national and international attention to a dramatic increase in deforestation. There have been some efforts to address the fire issue but deforestation and fire in 2020 were greater than 201913.
It is hard to be precise about how much deforestation would cause the system to actually tip toward conversion to savannah. Carlos Nobre thinks 20-25%14. Tipping probably isn't instantaneous which means it should be possible to work the system back from the brink. It clearly makes no sense to discover the tipping point by tipping it. The amount of abandoned deforested Brazilian Amazon may be providing a partial cushion and time for action. Much of that if encouraged to regrow as forest can provide the essential security (enough trees and leaves!) to keep the hydrological cycle healthy.
In the Central Amazon, where the forest fragments study is located, forest recovers pretty spontaneously but there are some indications recovery is harder in the southern Amazon probably because it is now drier15. Reforestation could stabilize the hydrological cycle and help Brazil fulfill its pledges under the Paris climate agreement. A modest portion could be agroforestry that provides additional economic return.
But what of all that biodiversity? Is it to be locked away for the amusement of science with no practical value? It has in fact contributed substantially to human wellbeing in ways that simply are not tracked or entered into human accounting. Commodities like cacao, quinine, and cassava (the major starch in the diet of most tropical peoples) all come from the Amazon. Curare which is used as a muscle relaxant in major abdominal surgery is still harvested directly out of the Amazon. Too complex to be synthesized without prohibitive expense, it was originally used (and still is) by indigenous peoples for fishing - relaxing the fishes' muscles long enough for them to be harvested.
Yet more significant is the way the biodiversity can serve as a vast library for the life sciences. Each species constitutes a set of solutions to a particular set of biological challenges, any one of which can have a transformative effect on the life sciences and human wellbeing.
One of the most amazing examples involves the fer-de-lance (a poisonous viper of the new world tropics), the poison of which causes the blood pressure of whatever it bites to dive to zero. Studying this, scientists at Brazil's Butantan Institute in Sao Paulo (which specializes in natural toxins and poisons) discovered an unrecognized system of regulation of blood pressure in mammals – now known as the angiotensin system.
Snake venom itself will not work as a medicine because it is denatured by the human digestive system. Instead scientists at the Squibb pharmaceutical company were able to design a molecule which works on the system. Known as captopril it was the first of the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors. This class of drugs today benefits literally hundreds of millions of people by controlling their blood pressure and enabling longer healthier and more productive lives – an astonishing and ongoing impact.
The vast majority of the people who benefit from ACE inhibitors have little clue from whence it came. Even though the line of inquiry started in Brazil with the fer de lance, there was (and is) no direct way that some of the profit could enure to any Brazilian entity because 1) there was no molecule from Brazilian biodiversity which could be the basis for economic return, and 2) discovery of the angiotensin system was in the open scientific literature. Today with considerable development of biodiversity access and benefit sharing protocols there could be a better local benefit.
Nonetheless a more organized approach to exploring the biology of Amazon (or other) biodiversity could easily lead to sustainable economic benefits. Costa Rica had a successful initiative, INBio, which during its relatively short history explored ways in which these benefits can be systematically investigated and potentially brought to market.
Bringing new medicines to market is probably the hardest of all the things that might be pursued, simply because they require such rigorous testing but there are numerous other and easier possibilities. Retired Pfizer Research Laboratory Director George Milne believes that an ecological screen

Thoughts on The Mandalorian, plus new catalog BDs from Shout, Scream, VCI & more
All right, I promised my thoughts on The Mandalorian on Disney+. I have to say, I like it. It's nice to watch a slice of Star Wars that doesn't involve Jedi, Sith, and Skywalkers for a change. It's a little in the mold of Rogue One, though that was more closely tied to the Saga films. But Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni have crafted a half-hour series that feels like a slice of lived-in classic Star Wars, and is taking its time developing its story. The texture is right, the supporting cast is terrific (thus far including Carl Weathers, Werner Herzog, and Nick Nolte), and I love the Bill Conti-infused score by Ludwig Göransson.
Pedro Pascal is good in the lead role, but to be fair we haven't seen him outside the Mandalorian armor yet, nor have we learned very much about the character. But each episode seems to peel back the onion a little more, and again I like the fact that the show is taking its time. I would have thought that 30-40 minute episodes would seem too short, but I find I'm satisfied after each one. And reports from friends and Lucasfilm insiders who have seen more suggest that the show gets better with every new installment (there will be 8 in all in this first season). What I can tell you is that I'm certainly enjoying it. The show also looks great in 4K with HDR, and sounds great too in Dolby Atmos. [Read on here...]

Criterion's Feb slate revealed, plus the Star Wars Prequels, Rogue One & Force Awakens in 4K
All right, first things first today: Criterion has just announced its February 2020 slate of Blu-ray and DVD titles.
Look for it to include Alfonso Cuarón's Roma (Spine #1014 – Blu-ray and DVD) on 2/11, Pier Paolo Pasolini's Teorema (Spine #1013 – Blu-ray and DVD) and an updating of Hiroshi Teshigahara's Antoni Gaudí (Spine #425 – Blu-ray and DVD) on 2/18, and Jeannie Livingston's Paris is Burning (Spine #1018 – Blu-ray and DVD) and Three Fantastic Journeys by Karel Zeman (Blu-ray and DVD) on 2/25. That last set includes Journey to the Beginning of Time (Spine #1015), Invention for Destruction (Spine #1016), and The Fabulous Baron Munchausen (Spine #1017). You can read more here at the Criterion website.
Those are all fine titles, but Roma is particularly appreciated given that it was a Netflix release last year and hasn't been available on physical media yet.
Also today, our own Michael Coate has a new History, Legacy & Showmanship column here at The Bits—first posted yesterday afternoon—in which he looks back at James Cameron's The Abyss with historian Matthew Kapell in honor of the film's 30th anniversary. It's a great piece, so do give it a look. And who knows? Maybe it will remind the director that he's got a new 4K HDR grade of the film to approve so we can all watch it on Blu-ray and UHD sooner rather than later. [Read on here...]

'If ex-Catholic was a religion...': Why independent Catholic churches are flourishing
by Jess Rohan, Updated: April 22, 2019

On Holy Thursday, a solemn day in the most sacred week in the Catholic calendar, St. Miriam's felt like any other Catholic church: The altar featured a crucifix draped with white fabric and a tabernacle, and the Rev. James St. George, also known as Father Jim, was preparing the Flourtown church for a foot-washing ceremony, with towels and washbasins placed on the altar.
But St. Miriam's is not Roman Catholic, nor affiliated with the Vatican: It's catholic — with a lowercase c.
It's one of at least four independent Catholic parishes that cropped up around Philadelphia between 2005 and 2010, nourished in part by the advantages of social media and email. Now with more than 600 parishioners, St. Miriam's has become perhaps the largest such congregation; like the others, drawing Catholics eager for new ways to practice an old faith.
Its pastor last week noted the sad parallels between the worldwide Roman Catholic Church and the Paris blaze that seemed to rage untouched until it had already consumed part of its historic Notre Dame Cathedral.
"They don't admit they're on fire until it's too late," St. George said. "And now the whole church is burning."
The Roman Catholic Church is still the biggest religious institution in the United States — and the world, with about 1.3 billion adherents, according to the Vatican. But fewer and fewer Americans are identifying as Catholic. The clergy sex-abuse scandals, conversion to other faiths, and declining religiosity in general all play a role, according to polls. A Pew study found that between 2007 and 2014, the Catholic Church lost more members than any other religious institution, by a wide margin.
"If ex-Catholic was a religion, it'd be the third-largest in the United States," said Julie Byrne, a professor of religion at Hofstra University whose book, The Other Catholics: Remaking America's Largest Religion, explores independent catholicism.
Alternative Catholic churches have existed for centuries. The Orthodox Catholic Church, which split with the Roman Catholic Church in 1054 and today maintains its seat of power in Istanbul, has more than 100 million members.
And not all are alike. Some are conservative, offering Mass in Latin. Others are characterized by an openness to concepts and stances that the Roman Catholic Church eschews, including female priests and gay marriage — both of which a majority of U.S. Catholics support, according to the Pew poll.
But most independent Catholic churches are filled with congregants steeped in the traditions of the religion. Byrne said 60 percent to 70 percent of parishioners at the independent Catholic churches she studied had come from Roman Catholic churches.
She said such a conversion comes at a price: The Rome-led Catholic Church has made sure to convey that independent parishes aren't "the real thing," suggesting that joining one could jeopardize a Catholic's salvation.
A spokesperson for the Archdiocese of Philadelphia last week declined to wade into the debate, instead noting that though the church has been "uneven in fidelity to Christ and His word," it is "the only place where Christ and His word continue to be passed on in all of its fullness and clarity."

CHESTER A. REED, B. S.
Grebes are birds having a ducklike body, but with pointed bills. Their feet, too, are unlike those of the Ducks, each toe having its separate web, and having a broad flat nail. Their wings are very small for the size of the body, making it impossible for them to rise in flight from the land. They rise from the water by running a few yards along the surface until they have secured sufficient headway to allow them to launch themselves into the air. After having risen from the water their flight is very swift and strong. On land they are very awkward and can only progress by a series of awkward hops; they generally lie flat on their breasts, but occasionally stand up, supporting themselves upon their whole tarsus. Grebes, together with the Loons, are the most expert aquatic birds that we have, diving like a flash and swimming for an incredible distance under water.
1. Western Grebe. Aechmophorus occidentalis.
Range.--Western parts of North America, from southern Alaska southward; east to Minnesota and south in winter to the southern parts of the United States and Mexico. Breeds from the Dakotas and northern California northward. These are the largest of the American Grebes; owing to their unusually long necks, they are frequently called "Swan Grebes." They are very timid birds and conceal themselves in the rushes on the least suspicion of danger.
Chalky bluish white, stained buff.
At times, to escape observation, they will entirely submerge their body, leaving only their head and part of the long neck visible above the water. This Grebe cannot be mistaken for any other because of the long slender neck and the long pointed bill, which has a slight upward turn. They nest abundantly in the marshes of North Dakota and central Canada. Their nests are made of decayed rushes, and are built over the water, being fastened to the rushes so that the bottom of the nest rests in the water. The nesting season is at its height during the latter part of May. They lay from three to five eggs, the ground color of which is a pale blue; this color is, however, always concealed by a thin chalky deposit, and this latter is frequently stained to a dirty white. Size 2.40 × 1.55.
2. Holboell's Grebe. Colymbus holboellii.
Range.--Throughout North America, breeding from northern United States northward and wintering from the middle to the southern portions of the United States. In regard to size this Grebe comes next to the Western, being 19 in. in length. This bird can be distinguished by the white cheeks and throat and the reddish brown foreneck. They breed abundantly in the far north placing their floating islands of decayed vegetation in the water in the midst of the marsh grass. They lay from three to six eggs of a dingy white color which have the stained surface common to Grebes eggs. Size 2.35 × 1.25.
NEST AND EGGS OF HOLBOELL'S GREBE Lake Winnipegosis, Manitoba.
3. Horned Grebe. Colymbus auritus.
Range.--The whole of North America, breeding in the interior from North Dakota northwest; winters along the Gulf Coast. This species is one of the most beautiful of the Grebes, having in the breeding season buffy ear tufts, black cheeks and throat, and chestnut neck, breast and sides. They breed abundantly in the marshy flats of North Dakota and the interior of Canada.
They build a typical Grebe's nest, a floating mass of decayed matter which stains the naturally white eggs to a dirty brown. The number of eggs varies from three to seven. Size 1.70 × 1.15. Data.--Devils Lake, N. Dakota, June 20, 1900. 6 eggs much stained. Nest floating in 4 ft. of water, a large mass of rotten rushes and weeds. Collector. James Smalley.
4. Eared Grebe. Colymbus nigricollis californicus.
Range.--North America west of the Mississippi, breeding from Texas to Manitoba and wintering along the Pacific Coast of the United States and from Texas southward.
Eared Grebes differ from the preceding in having the entire neck

Jump To: Source CreditCodificationAmendmentsEffective Date
§6401. Amounts treated as overpayments
(a) Assessment and collection after limitation period.
The term "overpayment" includes that part of the amount of the payment of any internal revenue tax which is assessed or collected after the expiration of the period of limitation properly applicable thereto.
(b) Excessive credits
If the amount allowable as credits under subpart C of part IV of subchapter A of chapter 1 (relating to refundable credits) exceeds the tax imposed by subtitle A (reduced by the credits allowable under subparts A, B, D, and G of such part IV), the amount of such excess shall be considered an overpayment.
(2) Special rule for credit under section 33
For purposes of paragraph (1), any credit allowed under section 33 (relating to withholding of tax on nonresident aliens and on foreign corporations) for any taxable year shall be treated as a credit allowable under subpart C of part IV of subchapter A of chapter 1 only if an election under subsection (g) or (h) of section 6013 is in effect for such taxable year. The preceding sentence shall not apply to any credit so allowed by reason of section 1446.
(c) Rule where no tax liability
An amount paid as tax shall not be considered not to constitute an overpayment solely by reason of the fact that there was no tax liability in respect of which such amount was paid.

Status of Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission
Pallavi - December 7, 2012
On November 28, 2012, the Comptroller and Auditor General submitted its report on the implementation of the Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission (JNNURM). According to the report most of the projects initiated under JNNURM have not been completed. For instance with respect to urban infrastructure projects, only 231 projects out of the 1298 sanctioned projects have been completed. Similarly, with respect to housing projects, only 22 of the 1517 projects have been completed. Some of the other key recommendations of the report are:
Some of the reasons for the delay in completing the projects include: (i) delay in acquiring land; (ii) deficiency in preparation of projects; and (iii) non-identification of beneficiaries which increased the risk of ineligible beneficiaries getting the benefits.
A total allocation of Rs 66,084 crore had been made by the Planning Commission. However, against this total allocation, the central government had made an allocation of only Rs 37,070 out of which until March 30, 2011 only Rs 32,934 had been released.
There was a delay in releasing these funds to the states. A large portion of the funds was released only in the last quarter and more particularly in March.
The JNNURM guidelines were deficient as they did not provide adequate guidance to the states on the method of parking the funds and utilization of interest.
The need and objectives of JNNURM According to the 2011 census India's urban population has increased from 286 million in 2001 to 377 million in 2011 . With the increase in urban population, there is a requirement to improve the urban infrastructure and improve the service delivery mechanisms. With these specific objectives in mind, the central government launched the Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission 2005-2006. The aim of the Mission is to encourage reforms and fast track planned development of identified cities (such as cities with a population of more than 1 million as per the 2001 census). JNNURM has two main components namely : (i) Urban Infrastructure and Governance and (ii) Urban Infrastructure Development for Small and Medium Towns. The duration of JNNURM was from 2005-06 to 2011-12. However, as the projects have not been completed the Government has extended its duration until March 2014. Funds for JNNURM The funds for JNNURM are provided through the Additional Central Assistance. This implies that the funds are provided as grants to the states directly from the centre. In the 2012 Union Budget, the central government has allocated Rs 12,522 crore for JNNURM. This represents around 10 % of the total central assistance through the different schemes to states and union territories in 2012-13. As on June 30 2012, 554 projects at a total cost of Rs 62,253 crore have been sanctioned under the Urban Infrastructure and Governance sub-mission of JNNURM. The table below shows the status of the sanctioned JNNURM projects in the different states. State wise status of the projects under JNNURM (as on August 6, 2012)

Lok Sabha passes a Bill to regulate doping in sports
Omir Kumar - Aug 3, 2022
The National Anti-Doping Bill, 2021 is listed for passage in Rajya Sabha today. It was passed by Lok Sabha last week. The Bill creates a regulatory framework for anti-doping rule violations in sports. It was examined by the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Sports, and some of their recommendations have been incorporated in the Bill passed by Lok Sabha.
Doping is the consumption of certain prohibited substances by athletes to enhance performance. Across the world, doping is regulated and monitored by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) which is an independent international agency established in 1999. WADA's primary role is to develop, harmonise, and coordinate anti-doping regulations across all sports and countries. It does so by ensuring proper implementation of the World Anti-Doping Code (WADA Code) and its standards. In this blog post, we discuss the need of the framework proposed by the Bill, and give insights from the discussion on the Bill in Lok Sabha.
Doping in India
Recently, two Indian athletes failed the doping test and are facing provisional suspension. In the past also, Indian athletes have been found in violation of anti-doping rules. In 2019, according to WADA, most of the doping rule violations were committed by athletes from Russia (19%), followed by Italy (18%), and India (17%). Most of the doping rule violations were committed in bodybuilding (22%), followed by athletics (18%), cycling (14%), and weightlifting (13%). In order to curb doping in sports, WADA requires all countries to have a framework regulating anti-doping activities managed by their respective National Anti-Doping Organisations.
Currently, doping in India is regulated by the National Anti-Doping Agency (NADA), which was established in 2009 as an autonomous body under the Societies Registration Act, 1860. One issue with the existing framework is that the anti-doping rules are not backed by a legislation and are getting challenged in courts

. Further, NADA is imposing sanctions on athletes without a statutory backing. Taking into account such instances, the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Sports (2021) had recommended that the Department of Sports bring in an anti-doping legislation. Other countries such as the USA, UK, Germany, and Japan have enacted legislations to regulate anti-doping activities.
Framework proposed by the National Anti-Doping Bill, 2021
The Bill seeks to constitute NADA as a statutory body headed by a Director General appointed by the central government. Functions of the Agency include planning, implementing and monitoring anti-doping activities, and investigating anti-doping rule violations. A National Anti-Doping Disciplinary Panel will be set up for determining consequences of anti-doping rule violations. This panel will consist of legal experts, medical practitioners, and retired athletes. Further, the Board will constitute an Appeal Panel to hear appeals against decisions of the Disciplinary Panel. Athletes found in violation of anti-doping rules may be subject to: (i) disqualification of results including forfeiture of medals, points, and prizes, (ii) ineligibility to participate in a competition or event for a prescribed period, (iii) financial sanctions, and (iv) other consequences as may be prescribed. Consequences for team sports will be specified by regulations.
Initially, the Bill did not have provisions for protected athletes but after the Standing Committee's recommendation, provisions for such athletes have been included in the Bill. Protected persons will be specified by the central government. As per the WADA Code, a protected person is someone: (i) below the age of 16, or (ii) below the age of 18 and has not participated in any international competition in an open category, or (iii) lacks legal capacity as per their country's legal framework
Issues and discussion on the Bill in Lok Sabha
During the discussion on the Bill, members highlighted several issues. We discuss these below-
Independence of NADA
One of the issues highlighted was the independence of the Director General of NADA. WADA requires National Doping Organisations to be independent in their functioning as they may experience external pressure from their governments and national sports bodies which could compromise their decisions. First, under the Bill, the qualifications of the Director General are not specified and are left to be notified through Rules. Second, the central government may remove the Director General from the office on grounds of misbehaviour or incapacity or "such other ground". Leaving these provisions to the discretion of the central government may affect the independence of NADA.
Privacy of athletes
NADA will have the power to collect certain personal data of athletes such as: (a) sex or gender, (ii) medical history, and (iii) whereabout information of athletes (for out of competition testing and collection of samples). MPs expressed concerns about maintaining the privacy of athletes. The Union Sports Minister in his response, assured the House that all international privacy standards will be followed during collection and sharing of data. Data will be shared with only relevant authorities.
Under the Bill, NADA will collect and use personal data of athletes in accordance with the International Standard for the Protection of Privacy and Personal Information. It is one of the eight 'mandatory' standards of the World Anti-Doping Code. One of the amendments moved by the Union Sports Minister removed the provision relating to compliance with the International Standard for the Protection of Privacy and Personal Information.
Establishing more testing laboratories across states
Currently India has one National Dope Testing Laboratory (NDTL). MPs raised the demand to establish testing laboratories across states to increase testing capacity. The Minister responded by saying that if required in the future, the government will establish more testing laboratories across states. Further, in order to increase testing capacity, private labs may also be set up. The Parliamentary Standing Committee on Sports (2022) also emphasised the need to open more dope testing laboratories, preferably one in each state, to cater to the need of the country and become a leader in the South East Asia region in the areas of anti-doping science and education.
In August, 2019 a six-month suspension was imposed on NDTL for not complying with International Standard for Laboratories

It's quite possible that Star Wars has never been more popular than it is right now, and all the new films and TV series have brought a wealth of new vehicles and characters that have become firm fan favourites. This increased popularity has had a knock-on effect on the modelling world, where at long last we're seeing plenty of new kits hitting the shelves.
However, the big boys like Bandai and Revell tend to concentrate on the more iconic subjects, meaning some of the lesser known characters get passed by.
That's one area that's always been the preserve of the garage kit makers. Small, often one man operations that produce resin kits of the more obscure subjects that the big companies usually avoid.
That's exactly what we're looking at today, with this new release of Chopper, the cranky astromech from the Rebels animated series, produced by JPG Productions.
For those that aren't familiar with the show, C1-10P or 'Chopper' to his friends is a C1 Astromech 'Droid, similar to R2-D2, but of an older design. He served with the Republic during the Clone Wars, and during one campaign over Ryloth his Y-Wing fighter was shot down. A young Twi'lek girl named Hera Syndulla found and repaired him. When she was older, Hera took command of the Ghost, a modified, and up-armed freighter (sound familiar), with Chopper on board to keep the ship flying. Together with the rest of the crew, they were instrumental in the formation of the Rebellion against the Galactic Empire.
During his travels with the crew of the Ghost, Chopper has crossed paths with many of the famous faces of Star Wars including R2 and 3P0, Lando Calrissian and even Princess Leia.
He's now moved from his animated roots into the live action world, thanks to his cameo appearance in Rogue One.
This is JPG's second foray into 'Droid modelling, having released the fan favourite 'Gonk' 'Droid last year, which came with a bonus mouse droid. That release, and the new Chopper are both made to 1/12, which scales them nicely with the Bandai droid kits that most Star Wars modellers will be familiar with.
The kit arrives in a small, nondescript cardboard box with a simple printed label on the front. Inside the parts are contained in resealable plastic bags buried in polystyrene chips, which do a good job of keeping everything protected.
Apart from the resin castings themselves, you get a small decal sheet and a brief instruction sheet showing you a rough guide to part placement, together with some basic colour call-outs. Lastly, you get a short length of flexible tube to replicate the hose on Chopper's right leg. It's important to bear in mind if you're buying this kit that this isn't going to be a state-of-the-art injection model. Like most garage kits, you'll be expected to do a fair bit of clean-up and tweaking of parts. Having said that, nothing here should be too taxing for anyone with even moderate modelling skills.
In the first bag, you'll find the larger components, including the main body and head, the two legs, and their accompanying feet. These are all solid resin castings which actually makes them quite heavy in comparison to a regular styrene kit. There's quite a bit of flash on the parts, but no casting blocks to remove, which will save a lot of time.
The second bag contains the smaller detail parts, including the manipulator arms and scanning dish that attaches to his head. All of these do have casting blocks, which you'll need to carefully remove with a razor saw. You can probably see one pin hole on the tip of one of the manipulator arms. Pin holes can be common on resin castings, and are caused by air bubbles forming in the resin as it cures in the mould. They're easy enough to fill, but this is the only prominent one I've found on the whole kit, which shows the caster did a good job.
It's worth mentioning at this point for anyone who hasn't worked with resin before that, when sawing and sanding, it's advisable to wear a face mask and keep the room well ventilated. Breathing in resin dust

isn't to be recommended.
The decal sheet has been produced on a home printer using clear decal paper. As a result, each decal will need to be carefully trimmed out first, but after that, they can be treated like any conventional decal. The printing is good, if a little basic, but areas like the yellow band on the head could easily be painted anyway. I'd have preferred to see the vent detail on the green and yellow panel decals printed separately, so the panels could be painted instead, but I think there should be ways around that issue.
The small instruction sheet only shows a basic exploded diagram of the parts, but to be honest the construction is so straight forward that you don't really need any more than that. The colour call-outs show Pantone references, which aren't a great deal of use for modelling purposes, so you'll need to match the colours by eye, or to the decals if you're using them.
The head looks to be pretty accurate in shape for the most part, although the raised rim around the top isn't entirely accurate. This area should really be flush, with a couple of closely spaced panel lines running around the top edge. Having said that, the digital model used for Rebels is quite simplified, so you could easily argue that the raised lip could be correct for a 'real' Chopper.
One area of the sculpt that's a little disappointing is the very noticeable line partially running around the top of the head. This isn't an intentional panel line, but rather a remnant of the construction of the master model. It really should have been filled and cleaned up on the master before the mould was taken. There are quite a few areas across the model where short cuts have been taken on cleaning up and finishing the master, and these have carried through onto the castings. It's a shame that these final steps weren't taken, as they spoil what is otherwise a very good sculpt.
The body is similar to the head, in as far as the basic proportions are very good, but it's let down slightly by some poor finishing. Some of the panel lines are a little indistinct and will need re-scribing. The surface is also quite rough in places, and needs some sanding to get a smooth finish.
Interestingly, the mounts on each side to which the legs connect use the socket parts from the Bandai astromech kits, although the left-hand one has been sanded to the point where most of the detail has vanished. It's not a problem though, as these areas are covered once the legs are fitted, and using those parts means the legs fit very securely without the need for glue.
Chopper doesn't have the usual third leg that other Astromechs use. Instead, he has a wheel mounted on a bracket, that can be retracted into his body. In the kit, the bracket simply drops into a recess in the bottom of the body. Alternatively, you can leave it off, if you want to show it retracted.
The wheel that's included in the kit looks like it's been made from an existing kit part, most probably a wheel from a 1/72 aircraft kit. There's a rather tell tale ejector pin mark that confirms it's injection kit origins, and again, that's something that really should have been cleaned up on the master.
The two legs are different, and this is completely correct, as Chopper has one replacement leg. The details look to be accurate to the digital animation model and, as mentioned before, they're a nice positive fit into the body sockets. There are a few rough areas on each leg that will need filling and sanding. I hate to keep mentioning this but, again, this is down to poor finishing on the master, rather than any issues with the casting process. There's also some flash, but this should be relatively easy to clean up.
By contrast, the feet are pretty cleanly sculpted. The only slight inaccuracy is the width of the slots for the legs. These should be a little wider, as should the corresponding tabs on the bottom of the legs. It's not a major issue though, and won't show up that much on the finished model.
The remaining small details are reasonably well cast, and for the most part are fairly accurate. They could all be refined a little more if you're so inclined, but they're good enough if you don't want to do the extra work. The only part that really could do with replacing is the mast that holds the scanning dish. Resin can be quite fragile,

Forest Service, enviros at odds over plan to revive aspen tree stands
White River National Forest wants prescribed burns, timber harvests on 375,000 acres

A proposal to try to revive aspen stands across 375,000 acres of the White River National Forest has drawn criticism from environmentalists, endorsements from some local governments and concerns from spelunkers.
The U.S. Forest Service wants to use prescribes fires and timber harvests to improve the health in areas where aspen forests are in decline. The agency said aspen trees have a strong presence on about 600,000 of the 2.3 million acres of the White River forest, which stretches from Independence Pass to the Flat Tops and from Rifle to Summit County. The Forest Service identified about 375,000 acres as in need of enhanced management because of factors such as drought, disease, pests and the age of trees. In addition, conifer trees are invading some aspen stands.
"Under natural conditions, wildfire would play an important role in reinitiating aspen forests on those sites," the Forest Service proposal said. "However, fire suppression over the past few decades has likely resulted in a greater amount of conifer and a lesser amount of aspen across the White River National Forest."

The proposed management would involve targeting about 10,000 acres per decade through prescribed fires and another 10,000 acres per decade through timber harvests. However, the plan does not identify specific areas or prioritize where the work would occur first. That's a point of contention with environmental groups. They say the public deserves a chance to comment on a case-by-case basis.
The town of Vail endorsed the project but said a more aggressive approach is needed to have an impact.
"The scale of this project does not match the rapid change in condition of the forest's aspen stands," the town government said in comments submitted to the Forest Service. "At this scale it would take 18 decades to treat all the potential stands identified in this proposed action. We would ask that you consider increasing the maximum allowable acres to levels that would appropriately address the identified need."
The project was also endorsed by the county commissioners of Summit and Rio Blanco counties.
Rocky Smith, a longtime environmental advocate and researcher, presented an opposite view. He said targeting 20,000 acres of aspen stands for management per decade is not warranted because nature will achieve the same results.

"With about 50 percent of the White River National Forest's aspen being stable and a likelihood of increasing fire that will cause some aspen stands to regenerate, large-scale treatment is a waste of money and other resources," Smith wrote. "We recommend the project be dropped or considerably downsized to treating local areas where aspen clones appear to be dying out."
His comments were endorsed by multiple environmental organizations, including Aspen-based EcoFlight, Colorado Wild and Durango-based Great Old Broads for Wilderness.
The Roaring Fork Valley's oldest homegrown environmental advocacy group, Wilderness Workshop, submitted form letters from 275 individuals. The letter raised three points: First, the agency must analyze the impacts of the project on climate; second, that the proposal doesn't follow the National Environmental Policy Act because it doesn't specify areas to be managed or give the public the chance to comment on specific portions of the project; and third, that temporary roads could alter the character of roadless areas and management techniques could affects areas with caves and karsts.
"This proposed project is too large and too impactful, to move forward at this time," the letters said

Taste of St. Armands
St. Armands Circle Association and Wagner Realty present the 9th annual Taste of St. Armands! St. Armands Circle is renown not only for its upscale boutiques, galleries and fine shops, but also for its award winning restaurants. We proudly showcase our outstanding St. Armands Circle restaurants as they share a sampling of some of their delicious recipes. The variety is as wide as the world we live in – from continental cuisine to seafood, Italian to Irish, Spanish to Cuban and a little taste of Floribian thrown in for good measure. A taste to please every palate! Over 17 restaurants are participating in the beautiful setting of St. Armands Circle Park, along with noteworthy wineries and microbreweries or maybe you'd like to try this year's Taste of St. Armands specialty drink. Musical sounds will fill the air and set the mood for an evening of fine food, libations and perhaps…a little dancing. There will be a Silent Auction and fundraising activities to benefit Satchels Last Resort Animal Shelter/Sanctuary and St. Armands Circle Association. Please keep in mind, no pets will be admitted into the event area. St. Armands Circle Park is the perfect setting, for a night of great food, great wine, and the sounds of beautiful music! General admission tickets, which include all food and drinks, are available for purchase at a special discount through Cyber Monday, November 26th for $65, in advance of the event for $75 and for $85 at the door, the day of the event.

South Seattle Emerald
Co-owner of Vegan Metal Bar Resurrects Georgetown Liquor Company
December 26, 2020 Editor Leave a comment
by Mark Van Streefkerk
The Georgetown Liquor Company (GLC) is one of a few long-standing pillars of Seattle's meat-free eateries, so when the GLC announced its closing in September, the city's plant-based community collectively lamented another loss — but not for long. Alan Threewit, co-owner of Capitol Hill's vegan metal bar Highline, took over. He renovated the interior and debuted an all-vegan menu and selection of craft cocktails, officially relaunched on December 4 for takeout only.
While keeping the name, Threewit started with a small menu based on Highline favorites like the French Dip, Pulled Pork, and Reuben sandwiches along with a burger. Their seitan, a protein-packed vegan meat substitute made from wheat, is made in-house. Highline's punk and metal-inspired craft cocktails have also carried over to the GLC, like the Reign in Blood, a vegan Bloody Mary made with garlic, basil, and peppercorn-infused vodka, and King Crimson, a Manhattan with muddled orange and cherry, cherry- and orange-infused bourbon, and Luxardo liqueur. Right now the GLC is open everyday from noon to 8 p.m. All food and cocktail items can be ordered for pickup here.
Sandwiched between the train tracks and Airport Way on the corner of South Lucile Street, the GLC is a welcoming beacon at the north end of Georgetown, a cozy spot for local punks, blue-collar workers, and Seattle's plant-based community. The GLC was originally founded in 2007, featuring a full bar and vegetarian menu with plenty of vegan options. Funky art decorated the exposed brick walls, and retro video games made up a home-spun arcade. The menu featured sci-fi-themed dishes like the "Obi-Won-Ton Plate" and sandwiches like the "Picard" and "Darth Reuben." While he worked at the Highline for nine years, the GLC was Threewit's own neighborhood hangout for over a decade. "I've been coming here for 12 years since I've been in Georgetown. I've always felt at home in this bar," he said. "It's in my skin."
When a friend sent him a snapshot of GLC's "For Rent" sign at the beginning of September, Threewit immediately reached out to former owner Leslee Mesloh, who put him in touch with building owner John Bennett. When Threewit shared his vision of preserving the GLC, with a renewed vibe and menu, Bennett was instantly on board. "It just snowballed. It went really fast," Threewit said, describing the process. "It just kinda happened. We did a lot of work inside here — a pretty good facelift on the place. It's not the busiest right now, but you know it is December and opening during COVID — there's nothing easy about this, but there's been a really big, positive response."

The timing couldn't have been better. Highline quietly celebrated its 10-year anniversary this year under COVID-19 restrictions. Known for its vegan bar food like the popular deep-fried Seitan Fingers, the Highline was primarily a venue for punk and metal shows. With COVID-19 shutting down live music venues, Highline transitioned to offer takeout food and drink only. That didn't exactly cut it for a location with such a high overhead. "We couldn't do shows there. That kind of killed everything for us," Threewit said. "We were in the most expensive area of Capitol Hill. What are you going to do? Rent is insanely expensive. Without doing shows, we're not making anything."
Threewit and co-owner Dylan Desmond put Highline on a month-long hiatus in the summer as a mental health

The Boo Birds Podcast
By Joe Greenwich and John Saeger
The Boo Birds Podcast is Philadelphia's hottest new sports podcast. Well, Philadelphia's newest sports podcast, at least.
Hosts Joe Greenwich and John Saeger dive head first into the latest Eagles, Flyers, Phillies, 76ers, and Union news each week, mixing insight with a dash of irrationality – as is the Philadelphia way – and a strong sense of humor, because in this sports town, it's the only way to survive.
The pair will also share their thoughts on the general sports news of the week, in addition to sharing their experiences as life-long Philadelphia sports fans with their listeners.
Pederson and Harden Out; Scott Rolen into the Hall of Fame?
On this week's episode of The Boo Birds Podcast, the guys discuss the end of the Doug Pederson era in Philadelphia, the direction of the Eagles organization, and who the next coach might be (4:19) before discussing the James Harden trade that wasn't (22:20) – they're fine with it – and the Flyers' start to the season (34:36). Finally, John pleads his case for why Scott Rolen should be in the Baseball Hall of Fame, which is then discussed in both broad strokes and great detail at the same time; there's something there for both purists and stat heads alike (38:29).

22. 01/11/21: Eagles Season Wrap-Up with Roy Burton of Birds Outsiders
This week, it's a "pre-mergency" pod discussing the Eagles' season in advance of the reported second meeting between Jeffrey Lurie and Doug Pederson early this week. Since misery loves company, Roy Burton of NBC Sports Philadelphia's Birds Outsiders joined the guys to talk about what went wrong this season (5:32) – spoiler alert: quite a bit! – and the next steps for the franchise, one of which may be coming within days (27:46).

21. 01/06/21: Tanks for the Memories
In the first episode of 2021, the guys talk about how the Eagles just couldn't let everybody head quietly into the offseason without one more ridiculous controversy (4:39) before the preseason wins pool gets resolved...for now (16:55). After a quick look at Wild Card Weekend (19:14) and some Sixers talk (24:21), the guys delve into their favorite sports jerseys (32:37), leading to a shocking revelation that puts the future of the podcast in peril.

20. 12/29/20: Hindsight is 2020
In the final episode of 2020, the guys discuss their respective Christmases, a John Reads The News™ segment that features two pitchers who may already be on a new team by the time you hear this (4:19), the loss in Dallas that effectively ended the Eagles' season (7:40), The Jalen Hurts Experience (13:18), a career shift for a polarizing former Eagle (21:06), the start of the Sixers' season (23:55), and a look back at some things that happened in sports in 2020 (32:40).

19. 12/22/20: The Boo Birds Christmas Spectacular
Christmas is just days away, so the guys decided to plan their own virtual holiday party. First, of course, they discuss Sunday's Eagles–Cardinals game (5:00) and the ESPN.com story about Carson Wentz's trade demand (26:31), which one of the guys believes, and one does not. Finally, Joe and John give out theoretical Christmas gifts to some current and former Philadelphia athletes, as well as each other. (38:49).

18. 12/15/20: Saint Jalen
What do you know? The Eagles knocked off the Saints! This week, the guys discuss the Birds' win over New Orleans and the performance of Jalen Hurts (3:47) before Joe speculates that Doug Pederson is a better coach with a backup quarterback (8:17), among other oddities about Sunday's win; the guys then move on to applauding the Phillies – one week after roasting them for half an hour – for the hire of Dave Dombrowski (24:54).

17. 12/08/20: The Phillies are Gonna Do What Now?
Jalen Hurts finally replaced Carson Wentz this week, and the Boo Birds have thoughts (6:24); the guys also go deeper on whether the 2020 season can be salvaged and what that even means at this point (12:30), the life and times of Carson Wentz (16:51), and the situations of Doug Pederson and Howie Roseman (24:25). Then, John takes aim at the Phillies after they were rumored to be shopping Zack Wheeler amid an offseason of not actually doing anything (32:12) before the guys discuss the front office situation (40:42), guys who will be back (49:24), and guys who could – well, theoretically – be added (54:37).

16. 12/01/20: The Best Philadelphia Sports Movies
The Eagles didn't play until Monday night, which means the guys avoided Eagles talk on this week's episode. Instead, the guys (mostly Joe) take the NFL to task for its handling of recent COVID-19 cases in Baltimore and Denver (9:59) before they (entirely Joe) go after MLS for its handling of its postseason bracket (16:30) and segue into a brief discussion of the Union's historic season (24:12). Finally, John breaks down his list of the best Philadelphia sports movies that he wrote for The Philadelphia Globe (30:33).

the Browns much more attention than it deserves (18:52). Then, a new feature is born as a listener tweet sparks a discussion about which Philadelphia coaches, past or present, the Boo Birds want to see throw hands (21:55). Finally, Matthew DeGeorge of the Delaware County Daily Times calls in as the pod's first-ever guest and goes deep with the guys about the Philadelphia Union's quest for the MLS Cup title, which begins Tuesday night in Chester (31:00).

14. 11/18/20: Third Downs and Lockdowns
As Philadelphia begins to prepare for a second set of coronavirus-related restrictions, the guys talk about the Eagles' low-energy loss to the Giants on Sunday (8:00). They also debate the likelihood and the merits of a potential James Harden trade for the Sixers (23:49) before a little Masters talk wraps things up (35:17).

13. 11/11/20: Good Bye Week
This week, the guys fail miserably in their attempt to put out a shorter episode during the Eagles' bye week. After the usual pleasantries and beverage-related buffoonery, the guys take a few minutes to reflect on the passing of legendary Jeopardy! host Alex Trebek (3:00) before discussing the Union's win over New England on Sunday that clinched the first trophy in club history and the team's playoff prospects (9:03). Then, since there was no Eagles game to talk about, they decided to take an in-depth look at where Carson Wentz ranks among NFL quarterbacks (25:40).

12. 11/03/20: The Least Infuriating Thing You'll Listen To Today
While you're on your way to the polls, or while you're waiting in line to vote, or if you've already voted, take a break from the political talk and join the Boo Birds as they discuss the excitement of Daryl Morey joining the Sixers' front office (6:12), the frustration of Kevin Cash overmanaging in Game 6 of the World Series (21:59), the fury of seeing Justin Turner on the field after the game despite carrying a positive COVID-19 test result (31:42), and then the contractually obligated discussion of the Eagles-Cowboys game (46:08). Plus, John tries a new beverage, and the effects are noticeable (4:56).

11. 10/27/20: Beasts of the Easts
The Eagles are back in first place after a win over the Giants on Thursday Night Football (7:05). They're not the only ones, though, as the Union took Toronto FC behind the proverbial woodshed on Saturday night for a 5-0 beatdown that vaulted the local MLS side into first place with three matches remaining in this most irregular of regular seasons (31:48), and you best believe Joe talked about it at length. Finally, the guys talk about the preposter

6. 09/30/20: Yes, Donovan, There is Tying in Football
In the newest edition of The Boo Birds Podcast, the guys do their best to briefly unpack another rough week. The Phillies needed one more win over the final week of the season but couldn't get it (4:06); other than the bullpen, what went wrong? Then, the Eagles had an arguably worse outcome on Sunday, playing to a tie with the Bengals; the guys try to make heads or tails out of a performance that had its ups and down (17:21).

5. 09/24/20: Hate To Say We Told You So
The guys take another distressing look at the Eagles' issues after their Week 2 loss to the Rams (5:17), including trying to place the blame for the loss and a discussion of how things could change for the franchise if the season doesn't get back on track (22:00). Then it's time for John to lay out the case for why he thinks the Phillies need to make front office changes (29:10) before the guys share the best ending to a game they've seen in person (48:52). Spoiler alert: you've already heard about Joe's before.

4. 09/16/20: Take These Broken Wings
This week, the guys begrudgingly discuss the Eagles' terrible season opener (5:16), whether or not this is a make-or-break season for Carson Wentz (11:41) and the Eagles in general (21:19), a brief look at last week's Quick Picks, plus Week 1 around the NFL (26:11), the Phillies' own injury woes (33:50), why Sixto Sanchez should have no bearing on re-signing J.T. Realmuto (46:38), and some memorable baseball fan experiences (53:25).

3. 09/09/20: Are You Ready for Some Football?
On this week's episode of The Boo Birds Podcast, Joe and John talk about the Flyers' season and playoff exit (5:22) before Joe talks about the Union while John politely waits for him to tire himself out (12:29). John then shares which local star athlete is bugging him right now (24:15) before diving into some talk about the NFL (27:38) and a preview of what the guys are expecting out of the Eagles this season (32:15). Finally, it's the inaugural Boo Birds Podcast NFL Wins Pool Draft (47:40).

Why Design Lovers Should Visit Cape Town Now
Here's why the long-haul flight is worth it

Late last month, heavy hitters from the art and design worlds descended on Cape Town, South Africa, for the opening of Thomas Heatherwick's Zeitz Museum of Contemporary Art Africa (MOCAA). Art and travel editors mingled with artists at the museum's lavish, Gucci-sponsored opening party, as Bjarke Ingels fielded admirers at the bar and a celebratory Heatherwick danced underneath the enormous wings of Nicholas Hlobo's dragon sculpture, which hangs suspended in the museum's breathtaking atrium.
Though the South African city has enjoyed a reputation as a destination for the design-savvy since being named World Design Capital in 2014, a slew of new projects since have only strengthened its appeal, and the opening of the Zeitz MOCAA (and its attached hotel, The Silo) have again turned all eyes to the city. From its rich, yet often painfully fraught history, South Africa has produced a unique environment of multicultural creativity, and the recent spotlight on Cape Town is indicative of the city's bright future. In honor of the renewed interest in the destination, AD has outlined the must-sees for design lovers in the creative haven. Here's what not to miss.
One of the city's most enticing aesthetic and cultural draws is the striking juxtaposition of old and new, of the historic—with all of its trouble and complexity—and the modern city that has grown out of it. Nowhere is this dichotomy more obvious than in the city's hotel offerings. Visitors to Cape Town have their choice of an adroitly restored colonial-era villa or a trendy new boutique hotel, and everything in between.

In the central city, just across the Company's Garden and visible from atop Table Mountain and Signal Hill thanks to its now-iconic Pepto-Bismol hue, sits the Belmond Mount Nelson, a stately throwback to the city's early days as a shipping port, when Sir Donald Currie, owner of the Union-Castle Shipping Line, opened it as an early tourist destination in the late 19th century (at the time, it was advertised as the country's first hotel to offer hot and cold running water). Since then, it's played host to the likes of the Prince of Wales, Winston Churchill, and Queen Elizabeth, who celebrated her 21st birthday with drinks in its ballroom while on an official tour. Visitors enter through a grandiose archway, meander down a palm tree–lined drive, and find themselves in a miniature village of rosy buildings, acquired piecemeal over the hotel's century in operation. The hotel has made the most of the variety in buildings, offering a slew of room types outfitted by designers who include Alexandra Champalimaud.. Those partial to a historic experience will enjoy the traditional high tea offered in the hotel's salon and adjoining terrace, part of the main building that just underwent a remodel by London designer Inge Moore this year.

At the other end of the timeline is Cape Town's newest hotel, which has made headlines for being the most expensive on the continent and is appropriately dubbed The Silo. Inside Thomas Heatherwick's revitalized grain silo in the Victoria & Alfred Waterfront district—accommodations it shares with the Zeitz MOCAA—the Royal Portfolio property offers sweeping views of Cape Town's breathtaking natural landscape in the neighborhood's tallest building. Inside, Heatherwick's gritty, industrial design finds a stylistic foil in interiors outfitted by Royal Portfolio owner Liz Biden. Kicky colors, whimsical patterns, and chinoiserie details abound, as does much work by contemporary artists also in the neighboring museum's collection, though guests may be hard-pressed to take their eyes off the harbor views as seen through Heatherwick's geodesic windows. Biden has also curated an impressive shop of South African crafts

Many of the city's other lodging options also prioritize the art, design, and history of their locale. Just across the harbor from The Silo is another bastion of historic Cape Town, a handsome Victorian-era building that has welcomed visitors to the area far before the V&A Waterfront neighborhood began its current redevelopment efforts. The Cape Grace references this history throughout its interiors; glass cases with artifacts from the country's past line the halls. If you're looking for something a bit more removed, Ellerman House, a onetime private home nestled in the hillside between the city center and the mountains, offers breathtaking views of the city and coastline as well as a top-tier collection of African art courtesy of hotel owner Paul Harris. Spread throughout the hotel's common spaces and a gallery on the grounds, Harris's collection spans works from colonial times to the modern era and numbers more than 1,000 pieces by masters including Frans Oerder (the so-called master of South African light), Alexis Preller, and William Kentridge.

Though many visitors to Cape Town come for the beach or the mountains, there's no shortage of great art and design within the city limits. The most buzzworthy, of course, is the just-opened Zeitz MOCAA , which, as the first major museum dedicated to contemporary African art, merits a visit to the city in its own right. Spread over nine floors carved out of a grain silo by Thomas Heatherwick, the museum is a celebration of Africa's culture and an investment in Cape Town's future as a destination for art enthusiasts.

Topping AD's list for design lovers is the much accoladed Southern Guild gallery, a space devoted to contemporary South African design. Since its founding in 2008, the gallery has been instrumental in elevating the careers of local designers and bringing South African design to light globally. Founders Trevyn and Julian McGowan have placed work in shows at the Vitra Design Museum in Weil am Rhein, Germany, and the Cooper Hewitt in New York, and in exhibits at fairs worldwide. In sync with the opening of Zeitz MOCAA, Southern Guild changed locations from the artsy Woodstock area to the V&A Waterfront, where it sits just across from the museum, making it an easy tack-on visit to art-savvy visitors.
Even with the departure of Southern Guild, Woodstock still has its fair share of galleries. The neighborhood, which has a grittier feel than the decidedly posh V&A Waterfront, has the highest concentration of design studios and galleries in the city and is touted as Cape Town's Design District. Despite their own space's departure, the McGowans of Southern Guild continue to sponsor the Design District through their design platform, Guild Group, which is headquartered in Woodstock. Just down the street from Guild Group's office on Sir Lowry Road is Goodman Gallery, an entity whose roots are deeply intertwined with its country's. Founded in Johannesburg in 1966 by Linda Givon, the gallery long operated as both a commercial outlet and a safe space for black artists during apartheid. Ten years ago, the gallery expanded to Cape Town and expanded its focus to include diaspora and international artists. Its stated goal now is to encourage dialogue between Africa and the rest of the world. In addition to its second-floor gallery space, Goodman more recently also operates a video space and shop on street level, a play to attract more foot traffic from locals and passing tourists.
A few blocks away is Stevenson, a gallery devoted to contemporary African artists working across a range of media housed in a traditional, white-box space, and on nearby Argyle Street is Whatiftheworld, a boundary-pushing gallery specializing in conceptual art, mainly by emerging artists. In 2000, developer Omnigro reimagined a onetime Woodstock bread factory as the Palms, a "decor and lifestyle center
