If this April in Sydney often felt more like mid-summer than mid-autumn, you wouldn't be far off the mark. And there's more out-of-season warmth to come.
Even before the final temperatures for the month settle on Monday, readings for the first 29 days are far enough ahead of previous records to make it certain that April will be Sydney's hottest in almost 160 years of records, Weatherzone says.
"It was a really, really hot month," Kim Westcott, a meteorologist with Weatherzone, said.
"Certainly, it's not isolated to just Sydney and NSW," she said, adding that South Australia and Victoria were also likely to challenge historical records.
Up until Monday, average daytime temperatures were running at 26.27 degrees, well ahead of the previous high of 25.6 degrees set almost a century ago in April 1922, Weatherzone said.
A typical April in Sydney would normally post maximum temperatures of 22.5 degrees. The hottest month of the year is usually January when 26 degrees marks an average day, according to Bureau of Meteorology data.
The mercury came close to reaching its forecast top of 21 degrees in Sydney, touching 20.8 decrees. That was just the third day of the month to register a below-average maximum temperature - and not cool enough to make much difference to the new April record.
"Due to a lack of cloud cover, Sydney also experienced about one and a half hours more sunshine than usual per day when averaged across the month," Ben Domensino, a meteorologist with Weatherzone, said.
The Bureau of Meteorology declined to comment on the records, pending the release of the monthly reported expected on Tuesday.
If anything, the overnight temperatures were even more anomalously mild.
Despite two cooler-than-average days to end the month - the only two during this April - a typical overnight low this month has been about 18 degrees, Weatherzone said.
That tally compares with the previous mildest April for minimums of 16.91 degrees, set in April 1986. A typical April in Sydney has minimums averaging 14.7 degrees.
Rainfall for the city was boosted by a couple of late bursts. The tally, though, was only about 23 millimetres, well shy of the average for the month of 128.5mm.
"This was Sydney’s driest April in 12 years during what is typically the city’s fourth wettest month of the year," Mr Domensino said.
The month got off to a roaring start across much of southern Australia, prompting the bureau to issue a special climate statement to highlight the many late-season records falling.
The outlook is for more unseasonably warm - and mostly dry - weather for the most of the first week of May at least.
After Monday, each day for the coming six days is forecast to be 23-27 degrees, or about 3-7 degrees warmer than a typical May day in Sydney.
Nights, though, will be closer to the average of 11.6 degrees usual for this month, although Friday's forecast overnight low of 19 degrees will be particularly mild.
Two cold fronts should arrive across Victoria and southern parts of NSW on Thursday, Friday and Sunday, possibly bringing snow flurries to mountain regions, Ms Westcott said.
Still, "the cold's not likely to get that far north", and make much of a dent in Sydney's readings, she said.
Among April's stand-out events were a record daytime for the month reading of 35.4 degrees on April 9, one of five days above 30 degrees. Another day with 29.9 degrees meant the city fell just short of matching 1922's record number of six days of 30 degrees or warmer days.
Background warming of about 1 degree over the past century caused by climate change - in Australia and globally - makes it much more likely that records for warm days will fall compared with cool ones, the bureau says.

Cork in a handset? Now, there's something you don't see every day. That's definitely how ikimobile's booth at MWC 2018 caught our eye. Well, the tree they had set up on the show floor helped draw some attention as well. But, it was the ecological and sustainability pitch that really piqued our interest.
Ikimobile takes a firm stand on the matter, by working mostly with cork - 100% natural, renewable, and recyclable with no carbon footprint and no harmful emissions. The company also prides itself on manufacturing independently in its home Portugal market and engaging in various other sustainability, waste-management and fair labor initiatives.
So, how well does this approach actually work for a phone? Surprisingly good, to be frank. At the booth, we checked out the company's latest BLESSPLUS smartphone.
It's a phone with increased shock resistance, which is a key selling feature on its own. The company's reps used every chance to drop it on the floor in front of unsuspecting passers-by around their MWC booth.
The phone's claim to fame, however, is the back made out of natural cork. The material provides nothing short of a unique look and feel. It is available in black and two shades of wood brown, complete with a distinctively textured surface. You can refer to the nearest bottle of wine for some point of reference.
Naturally, we had a lot of question. First, of course, the matter of durability. The cork seemed to be packed together really tightly, providing a very sturdy feel. Ikimobile actually claims that after subjecting the cork to "agglomeration carried out using its own resins (suberin)", it can retain its technical characteristics for up to 50 years.
We'll pretend we understand what this process is about and we will give them the benefit of a doubt. Nobody will use a handset for so long that's for sure.
So, the ikimobile reps were kind enough to put things in practical terms by showing us one of their earlier models - a KF5Bless Cork Edition, that had been used for over a year on a daily basis. We have to say, it looked spotless. No dents, cuts, chips or anything we had expected.
Prying even further into the matter, it turns out the eco-friendly nature of the handsets is more than skin-deep. Underneath the back panel of ikimobile handsets, there is even more cork, providing internal structural support. Apparently, the material can support vast thermal variations, between -180 degrees and 120 degrees Celsius. Plus it boasts anti-vibration and insulation properties. Burning it releases no toxic gasses since ikimobile does not mix anything synthetic in.
The reps were also kind enough to explain that it really did make sense for them to use as much of the stuff as possible, wherever it fits in, even in the boxes, since sourcing the raw material is not harmful to the cork trees. On the contrary, it is a renewable produce, and each tree can be harvested once every 9 years and removing the product is actually good for the tree itself. Plus the whole production process is very low-energy. The more you know!
So, bottom line, cork is great. But what about the rest of the BLESSPLUS? Well, it's actually a decent device. Its frame appears to be made of metal - not really as eco-friendly as the rest of it, but if you are going to worry about electronic waste, the actual circuitry and batteries should be higher on your list.
On the front, the BLESSPLUS looks like a normal 2018 smartphone, complete with a decent, although not impressive in any way, 5.99-inch, 18:9, FullHD IPS panel, covered with an undisclosed Gorilla Glass finish.
Hardware-wise, you get a MediaTek Helio P20 chipset, with 6GB of RAM and 64GB of expandable storage. A 3,800 mAh battery keeps the lights on. It can be topped off through some sort of fast charging, likely Pump Express 3.0, via a Type-C port.
Wireless charging is also part of the mix. Other specs include a fast, rear-mounted fingerprint reader, Dual-SIM support, and a standard connectivity loadout.
For photography, there are two 13MP snappers on the back, the second one with a telephoto lens. Ikimobile claims f/1.8 on both, but we have our doubts regarding the telephoto. Selfies are handled by a 5MP unit.
The BLESSPLUS has a footprint of 157.5 x 75.8 x 9.25mm and runs Android 7.0 out of the box. Pre-sales are already live on the company's website, with an asking price of € 359.99, which looks to be an early-bird special.
Yes, cork is a great thermal insulator, that is, keeps in heat in, and the cold out.

Millennials want to buy houses, but can they afford them in Dallas?
The refurbished Statler Hotel in downtown Dallas will debut in October 2016, and it will have a familiar name attached: Hilton. The landmark property will become part of the hotel chain’s Curio collection.
Statler owner Centurion American Development, helmed by Mehrdad Moayedi, entered into a franchise agreement with Hilton, which calls Curio “a global brand of distinctive upper upscale and luxury hotels, hand-picked for travelers who seek local discovery and authentic experiences.” The Highland Dallas hotel is also part of Curio.
The hotel debuted in 1956 as the Dallas Statler Hilton, heralded as the first and finest hotel of the modern era for its groundbreaking design and electronic innovations. It boasted many firsts in the hotel industry, including elevator music and custom 21-inch Westinghouse TVs in every room. It was also one of the first hotels to feature conference and ballrooms on its lower levels.
The Statler Hilton helped establish Dallas as a business and entertainment center in the Southwest, along with its chichi downtown neighbor Neiman Marcus.
Hilton Hotels sold the property to Hong Kong investors in 1988, who renamed it the Dallas Grand Hotel. It closed in 2001. In 2014, Centurion American Development Group purchased the property and secured $46.5 million in TIF financing from the City of Dallas to redevelop the historic property into a flagship hotel, residential, retail and entertainment center.
The master plan includes 161 hotel rooms on the lower five floors and 219 residences on the top 11 floors. The building will include meeting space, retail and office space, four restaurants, and a hotel lounge. A new music venue is also planned in the 14,500-square-foot ballroom. Development is slated to begin in May.
“The Statler was one of the most glamorous hotels in the world when it first opened in 1956, and we plan to restore its position as a destination for not only travelers coming to Dallas, but also as a place to live and work,” Moayedi said.

The Congressional Gold Medal, the nation's highest civilian award, will go to the Filipinos who served with the U.S. military during World War II.
Filipino veterans of World War II will be awarded the Congressional Gold Medal on Wednesday, after a lengthy battle for national recognition of their U.S. military service and sacrifices nearly 75 years ago.
The medal is the highest civilian award and will be presented at a ceremony in the U.S. Capitol to honor the 260,000 Filipinos who fought alongside American forces during the war and more than 57,000 Filipino troops who died.
Their service began in 1941, when President Franklin Roosevelt created the U.S. Army Forces of the Far East, offering full veterans’ benefits to Filipinos who enlisted. The Philippines at that time was a U.S. commonwealth, and Filipinos were U.S. nationals.
But once the war ended, the benefits were quickly rescinded by President Harry Truman in 1946, and the Filipinos who served were stripped of their status as U.S. veterans. The Philippines was singled out from the 66 nations allied with the U.S. during the war.
Many relatives and supporters of the veterans say not nearly enough has been done to recognize their sacrifices.
“If you look at what they did, why? The services that were rendered by the Filipinos was nothing,” said World War II veteran Remigio Cabacar, 90, a native of the Philippines who lives in Fort Washington, Md.
Celestino Almeda, 100, is a Filipino World War II veteran who immigrated to the U.S. in 1996 and lives in Gaithersburg, Md. During a protest about a decade ago, he said he chained himself to the White House fence because the U.S. was not providing the benefits promised to veterans like him.
"Why was America turning their back away from the veterans?” Almeda recalled.
Now, Almeda plans to be at Wednesday's ceremony and is scheduled to give remarks.
“This is not only my triumph to receive the medal, but the triumph of my colleagues who were with me, but unluckily some of them passed away." Almeda said.
The Filipino Veterans Recognition and Education Project, established in 2014, pushed for legislation to bestow the medal to the veterans, and President Barack Obama signed it into law on Dec. 14, 2016.
"It was historical. It was a phenomenal achievement, not just for our group but for our entire country and also for the Philippines,” said Antonio Taguba, chairman of the recognition project and a retired U.S. Army major general.
The group plans to place the gold medal in a museum and will create an educational program to preserve the history of the Filipino veterans.
“We ought to have this as a great celebration," Taguba said. “And we say to our veterans, thank you, thank you, thank you, for your service to this country."

Although the documents do not directly link the $3.3 million to the meeting, they show that officials at three separate banks raised red flags about the funds. Many of the transfers seemed to have no legitimate purpose, bankers noted. Kaveladze quickly moved money to other accounts he controlled, and appeared to use some of it to make payments on Agalarov’s behalf — including more than $700,000 to pay off American Express charges.
Help us follow the Trump money trail. If you want to see more reporting like this, become a BuzzFeed News supporter.
Scott Balber, an attorney for Agalarov and Kaveladze, said each of these transactions was legitimate and there is nothing improper with their financial activity. Balber explained that Agalarov sent funds to Kaveladze, an employee, to pay various business or personal expenses in the US.
They also learned that Kaveladze had given different banks radically different descriptions of one of his main companies, Corsy International. To JP Morgan Chase, Kaveladze said Corsy was a “transportation equipment and supplies merchant wholesaler.” He told Citibank it was a “music promotion company.” Agalarov gave yet another description to Morgan Stanley, calling the firm a “service provider” for his vast real estate company, Crocus Group.
Balber, the attorney, said that there are two separate businesses, both named “Corsy International,” that Kaveladze controlled. One is based in California and is involved in “procurement” issues related to Agalarov’s business empire. The other is based in New York and is largely involved with the music career of Emin Agalarov.
That lack of transparency made it difficult for bankers to know the true purpose of the funds into the company’s accounts. Examiners also became concerned with how Kaveladze handled the money.
Then on June 6, Agalarov started sending checks through an account at Morgan Stanley Wealth Management to Kaveladze’s company. Those funds totaled about $971,000.
When they reviewed these accounts, bank examiners became suspicious because it was unclear exactly how the money was supposed to be used.
For instance, at JP Morgan Chase, Kaveladze transferred money from one of his companies’ accounts to another and ultimately sent 24 payments over 15 months to American Express for a total of $725,000 — a red flag to bankers because they said it appeared Kaveladze was making the payments for Agalarov. The documents do not say what expenses were charged to American Express, and three federal law enforcement agents said investigators are still trying to figure it out. Balber said these transactions were legitimate personal and business expenses for Agalarov.
The details unearthed by bankers were compiled in “suspicious activity reports” sent to the Treasury Department’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network, which shared them with other law enforcement agencies investigating Russian interference.
Suspicious activity reports are not evidence of wrongdoing, but they can provide valuable information to investigators looking into possible money laundering, fraud, tax evasion, or other financial misconduct.
During their reviews in 2017, some banks noticed behavior that they had not previously flagged. Bank of America, for example, noted about $7.8 million that was sent from Corsy International to another of Kaveladze’s businesses, Promomed, between 2012 and 2014. Bankers said they were concerned that by transferring funds from one company to another, Kaveladze was trying to obscure the original source of the money.
Kaveladze had popped up on Citibank’s radar in September 2015, when he applied for a $100,000 line of credit for Corsy International. At that time, he told bankers that the company had $8 million in sales the previous year and that it had about $240,000 in available funds — but when Citibank investigated further, examiners learned that Corsy International’s account was actually overdrawn.
Balber, Kaveladze’s attorney, said that his client did nothing improper, and that he doesn’t recall telling the bank about Corsy International’s available funds.
All three banks cited a 2000 report by the Government Accountability Office, in which Kaveladze was investigated as part of a Russian money laundering scheme. Kaveladze, that report found, established more than 2,000 corporations in Delaware for Russian real estate brokers, then set up US bank accounts for them. The brokers used these accounts to transfer about $1.4 billion, the report found.

In the two months, companies have reached out to the RBI, exchanges and individuals have filed appeals in High court and Supreme Court, petitions have been started and finally many individuals have raised RTIs.
On one side RBI denies any committee being setup to understand the usage of virtual currencies, but answers that RBI was member of an inter disciplinary committee setup to examine Virtual Currencies in 2017 by the Finance Ministry.
Perhaps, the answer is that RBI has not setup any committee but is part of committees. Imagine the same answer from a Doctor who has to operate on a patient – I have not setup a team to examine the patient, but I am in the team that examines the patient. Logically correct, but you’d want the Doctor who set up the team to make decisions right?
Why is RBI making a decision when RBI has done no research of its own?
The RTI questions if RBI did really consult with other central banks and their stance of Virtual currencies. RBI denied. That directly implies that the following task from RBI’s press release in 2013 never really took place.
How was the Risk determined if there was no committee setup?
Has RBI ever attempted to understand the technology of Peer-to-peer time stamped, non editable transactions?
Which Media Reports have RBI taken cognisance from?
How did RBI reach this conclusion of deciding to terminate offer of all services by entities regulated by RBI ? Please share the minutes of the committee meetings held in this matter which drew such conclusion.
Was an Expert opinion seeked?
Will RBI prohibit from Procuring currencies from out of India?
Is RBI proposing to bring a comprehensive regulatory framework on virtual currencies ever ?
Will RBI entertain a face to face presentation by the applicant / known subject matter experts on the matter of Blockchain technology and its merits, especially, in the field of financial sector and how the same can be used for public interest along with what model policy framework can be drafted to crackdown on illicit use of this technology?
At the end of the day we have to wait until Supreme court judgement on RBI’s decision about Virtual Currencies. But the RTI application can be used by the lawyers in court to prove that RBI has not gathered adequate data to virtually ban crypto currencies in India.

Will Trump get Merrick Garland confirmed?
Thursday marks 50 days since President Barack Obama stood in the White House’s Rose Garden to announce Judge Merrick Garland as his pick to succeed Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia.
The day has come and gone when, if this nomination had proceeded like any of the ones that preceded it, Garland would have been due to begin confirmation hearings in the Senate.
Instead, the seemingly unchanged resolve of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and a circus-like presidential election have pushed Garland’s nomination largely out of public view. That doesn’t mean, however, that a small army of activists and political consultants have given up on pushing Senate Republicans on the issue, or that legal groups have stopped offering their own vetting of Garland and urging that he get a hearing. This week, Obama himself came out to stump on Garland’s behalf, giving a series of interviews to local reporters in key states.
Even if Republicans don’t cave and the election arrives without Garland on the court, Democrats at least have an issue with which to chip away at the Republican senate majority. “Obviously, Donald Trump is something that I’m going to be talking about, especially in regard to the Supreme Court,” Ohio Democrat and Senate candidate Ted Strickland told Politico this week.
Republicans profess to be unperturbed, maintaining their line that the next president should fill the seat. Their less-spoken logic is that the conservative base would be inflamed by the prospect of a fifth vote appointed by a Democrat outweighs any other political cost they’ll pay. Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, who is up for re-election this year, even said Wednesday that he wasn’t worried about Trump potentially naming Scalia’s successor. “I think I would expect the right type of people to be nominated by him to the Supreme Court,” Grassley said.
“It resonates with people,” said Woodhouse. “It hits home with people because Washington not doing its job under Republican control is what everyone thinks about Washington.” In other words, if they’re lucky, the campaign will jibe with the anti-establishment sentiment witnessed among both liberals and conservatives in the presidential primary—ironically, on behalf of the not exactlyrenegade chief judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit.
The operation is now expanding from six initial states and senators targeted in the last congressional recess — New Hampshire with Sen. Kelly Ayotte, Iowa with Sen. Chuck Grassley, Illinois with Sen. Mark Kirk, Wisconsin with Sen. Ron Johnson, Ohio with Sen. Rob Portman and Pennsylvania with Sen. Pat Toomey — and adding North Carolina, Arizona and Missouri to its list.
A much-touted RedState article called for Republicans to confirm Garland now as the lesser of two evils. With Trump at the top of the ticket, “Republicans must know that there is absolutely no chance that we will win the White House in 2016 now,” wrote Leon Wolf. “They must also know that we are likely to lose the Senate as well.” Better then to avoid a Clinton appointee in 2017 who could be younger and more liberal than Garland. So far, however, conservatives for Garland seems to be an outlier.
Contentious hearings and even rejections of Supreme Court nominees are not an anomaly; all but ignoring the president’s pick is. Still, key legal groups are trying to maintain some semblance of normalcy. On Thursday, the Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law released its report on Garland’s record on civil rights, including criminal justice and anti-discrimination law.
The report, though generally positive on Garland, notes that there is much that isn’t known about his record on many civil rights issues because of the administrative law focus of the D.C. Circuit. “I think that it is important that we now have hearings so that we can fully understand, and so that the public can understand, the kind of jurist that Judge Garland will be,” said Kristen Clarke, the group’s president.
That deadlock is already partly underway. The court has recently shown a reluctance to take as many new cases as it has in previous years. In some cases, the effect may be positive for liberal policy goals. A 4-4 decision in a key union case this term left intact the current arrangement by which public sector unions are funded, thanks to an earlier win at the liberal 9th Circuit Court of Appeals. Coming decisions on immigration, abortion rights and contraception may end in a tie, too, effectively leaving in place lower court decisions and limiting the impact to parts of the county.
Like it or not, will an eight-member court last? That, again, depends on what happens in the election.

Here is the second instalment of Asian Ultimate Life’s coverage of the World Championships of Beach Ultimate, recently completed in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
Here are scores, videos and some of my observations from the performances of South, East, and Southeast Asian teams in Dubai.
At the end I feature the overall spirit results for Asian teams as well.
This was a game that showed me a lot of what worlds was about. Here we had a matchup in which there was a heavy favorite and a team that not many outside of Asia knew much of. If you looked at the stats, it seemed like your standard 11-7 solid victory. Canada broke India half the times they pulled and their offense team only lost one point.
Watching the game told you a different story though. The Indians actually executed quite well and their energy level was very high. They were not afraid to put the disc up against a very athletic Canadian team and did find some success. How each team felt about the game was pretty clear during and after handshakes. If you didn’t know the result you would have guessed that India had come out victorious, their heads were held high, smiles all around. The Canadians, on the other hand, were clearly not happy about how the game went, even though they came out with the win.
This was a great start for the India campaign.
I had to come check out this all-Asia matchup. Because that’s how I roll.
This game was a lot tougher for India than their first. Not necessarily because the Dragons were better than the Canadians, but the matchups were a lot tougher.
India was still executing well, but much of their game is about big throws to streaking cutters. The Philippines mixed team featured one of the fastest teams beach ultimate has seen especially in their women. The closing speed of the Dragons took away a lot of the Indian attack. When the Dragons had the disc, the Indians had trouble with the fast female cutters, and when the Philippines were receiving the pull, India had to deal with three of them every time.
The Philippines faced a gutsy Indian side but just had too much speed.
This is why you go to Worlds. I’m not sure how often in international sporting events India and Uganda find themselves on the same field, but it’s rare (and yes, I checked cricket). And how often will you find two of the most energetic teams in a competition matched up against each other and come down to one point for the victory? And how often will those two teams end up on the dance floor together two nights later rocking out at a party hosted by an imaginary island?
Universe point. India looks deep, turn. Uganda turn. India drop. Uganda goes two a two person game. India locks down and gets the turn. At this point I think it was India’s fitness and the hard work they put in off the field that kicked in. Starting with that defensive stand, they started to outrun Uganda. They worked it down and finished the game woman-to-woman (Sneha to Megna [each of their first stats for the game]) for the score and the win.
The Czech Republic came out fast taking half at 7-2. India worked themselves back into the game, taking advantage of some Czech errors. The Czechs were able to get it together enough to hold off the Indian charge and hold onto a slight victory.
The Brits had a definitive size advantage and played quite physically, but the Dragons came into the weekend expecting this. There were mistakes both ways, but it was clear that the Dragons had spent a lot of time training together and were able to pull out the tight victory.
This was a game I was really looking forward to. I was especially excited to see the the female matchups. The fast Filipinas and the tall and fast Swedes. This was all the battle you could have wanted. The Swedes, like the Dragons other opponents, used their height with hucks, some of which were just out of reach of the flying Maimai.
The Dragons were precise, though made some mistakes, but overcame them with quickness.
The finish of this one was pretty interesting. The Swedes, if you take a look at the mixed division spirit scores, were at the bottom. This was a common place for Swedish teams at WCBU. At the end of the game, Nelson made a sweet layout grab for the win, right against the line. In? Out? the teams shook hands, the Swedes not contesting or interested in discussing the grab.
A Swedish grandmasters player whom my team had just lost to was filming the game. The tape shows pretty clearly that Nelson’s first point of contact was on the line. As it should have been, the call was kept on the field and the game was over.
When the disc was near the ground, the Dragons showed a solid speed advantage. Great Britain was tall and used their height well, along with having very solid skills. The Dragons went down a couple early. They fought hard down the stretch but were never able to make up the early deficit.
When I arrived the score was 7-0. Denmark couldn’t hang defensively with the speedy Filipinos.
This game was awesome and it was a bummer it wasn’t covered by the film crew.
Denmark was tall. It looked like the Singaporeans were standing in sand.
The Danes used this a lot and were not afraid to put the disc in the air. They also seemed to have a decent experience advantage over a Singaporean team that didn’t seem to have spent as much time in the sand together.
These are the combined spirit scores awarded Asian teams by their opponents (Out of 20).

Refugees and migrants line up for food distribution at the Moria migrant camp on the island of Lesbos, Greece, October 6, 2016.
Somali refugee Abdulaziz says he is "suffocating" in an overcrowded camp on the Greek island of Lesbos, where he shares a tent with a dozen other Africans.
The 30-something resident of the Moria camp had been hoping to reach Germany when he set off on his journey, but instead is stuck on this Greek island off Turkey's western coast waiting for his asylum claim to process.
"It's like a prison here. ... I'm suffocating," said Abdulaziz who has been languishing in the camp for the past eight months.
"There is always someone screaming, always fights," said Abdulaziz, who was injured in the leg while fleeing from Turkish police.
He is just one of the thousands of migrants and refugees stranded on Greek islands a year after Turkey signed a landmark agreement with the European Union to substantially reduce migrant flows.
Ankara and Brussels forged the deal on March 18, 2016.
In the agreement, which took effect two days later, Ankara pledged to take back all illegal migrants landing in Greece in order to help stem migrant flows to the EU.
The deal helped put the brakes on a massive influx of migrants and refugees, especially from Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan, which had mushroomed into a combustible political and social issue in Europe.
Turkey's pledge, in exchange for more aid, visa-free travel and the speeding up of Ankara's long-stalled EU accession talks, was also aimed at deterring migrants from making the perilous sea crossing in the first place, knowing they could be sent back.
Some 1,183 migrants were returned to Turkey in the year ending in January, Greek police figures show.
But, along with a series of border closures in the Balkans and eastern Europe last year, the EU-Turkey deal has transformed the Greek islands into vast holding pens for refugees and migrants.
Many of the camps are overcrowded and there are frequent clashes, with those inside tired of the long wait for asylum papers and fearful of being returned to Turkey.
On Lesbos, there are nearly 5,000 people in camps nominally built to hold 3,500, according to government figures.
The Greek immigration ministry has refused to permit large-scale relocation from the islands to the mainland, fearing that such a move could jeopardise the EU-Turkey agreement that has helped stem further arrivals to the continent.
Conditions at Moria, a camp that has long been plagued by poor living standards and overcrowding, have improved, said Achilleas Tzemos, a field coordinator with Doctors Without Borders (MSF).
The relocation of the most vulnerable, including unaccompanied migrant children and torture victims, has accelerated with at least 10,000 moved elsewhere, according to the UNHCR. But those who stay suffer with uncertainty at the very least.
"Not knowing what awaits them subjects them to a great deal of fear," Tzemos said.
According to MSF there has been a "sharp increase" in self-mutilations and suicide attempts.
The United Nations children's agency on Friday said the EU-Turkey agreement had increased suffering notably among children, despite curbing migrants flows.
"While there has been a major decrease in the overall numbers of children on the move into Europe since last March, there has been an increase in the threats and distress refugee and migrant children endure," UNICEF's migrant crisis coordinator Afshan Khan said in a statement.
In the past year, 851 people whose asylum claims were rejected or who simply gave up, were returned to Turkey, according to Greek police figures.
Even people entitled to international protection gave up, lawyers said, because they didn't understand the procedural mechanisms, or because they needed to escape the misery of the camps.
"Information is essential" for refugees, said Philip Worthington, a project coordinator at the European Lawyers association in Lesbos.
During one asylum interview, he said an Iraqi exile highlighted his qualities as a truck driver rather than the persecutions he suffered because of his Christian religion.
The EU is starting to cope with the situation, which refugees' rights organisations have criticised as a humanitarian scandal.
Rising tensions between residents and migrants, media images of flimsy tents crushed under heavy snow falls, and the deaths of three migrants at the Moria camp in January, for reasons still unclear, have galvanised Greek authorities.
The war of words between the EU and Turkey over the migrant deal has escalated in recent days after Ankara blasted Germany and the Netherlands for preventing Turkish ministers from campaigning ahead of a key April referendum.
The EU said it expects Turkey to honor the deal after Ankara threatened to bin it.

‘Further and ‘farther’ are two similar sounding words that have similar connotations of usage too. The difference in a first glance is only with respect to the second letter of the two words, and they are used almost interchangeably in the daily parlance. The fact is that there is a world’s difference between the two words. This is a clear instance underscoring the difference a single letter can make when used in two words.
Farther is primarily an adverb. Further too is an adverb; but it is also used as an adjective. Both mean the same when used to refer to the concept of distance. However, there are some shades of difference in the meaning of these words and it is this that makes the speaker of English confused about the words.
The words ‘farther’ and ‘further’ are two words in every day usage and it is very easy to get confused. These two words are simple too. However, an erroneous usage of the two might result in a serious derailment of the whole script affecting the very quality of the writing. Hence, it is imperative that one should be proficient enough in using these terms.
The term ‘farther’ denotes something that is distant in space. It notates physical advancement. However, ‘further’ as an adverb means an advancement in time. It also means something additional to the present. When you use ‘further’ as a verb, it refers to the act of advancing something. ‘Further’ is more abstract and cannot be considered as describing a physical or tangible entity.
As mentioned earlier, ‘farther’ refers to an actual physical distance. When you use farther, you can actually measure the extent of its distance. It can be felt and observed. It can be seen and felt.
‘Further’ does not give any definite concept of distance that can be seen and learned. Because of its very abstract nature, the term can be used figuratively too. This can be explained with the example of a sentence. ‘She moved further in her career path with countless victories to her credit.’ In this sentence, the distance that the term ‘further’ is referring to cannot actually be measured in terms of centimeters or kilometers as it has been used metaphorically.
Now consider this sentence, ‘He furthered his education.’ The word is used as a verb, denoting an action. Further here means to add up, to increase or to enhance. As a verb, it is easy to discern.
1.Both ‘farther’ and ‘further’ are adverbs. But ‘further’ is also used as a verb.
2.’Farther’ denotes a physical entity. Thus when we describe something using the word, we can really observe, feel and measure for ourselves.
3.’Further’ is an abstract concept. It refers to distance when used as the adverb. However sometimes, the word is used figuratively or metaphorically. In such cases, the distance that the word is referring to cannot be really observed and measured. Hence the word encapsulates an element of abstractness in it.
4.The word ‘further’ as a verb means additional. It means adding up to something.
lancetana. "Difference Between Further and Farther." DifferenceBetween.net. June 8, 2016 < http://www.differencebetween.net/language/difference-between-further-and-farther/ >.
Thanks for the clarification. When talking about 2 people drifting apart, have they drifted “farther” or “further” apart? We are talking about distance, but more in the abstract.
That depends. Are the two people in separate boats? Then they are drifting farther apart. If it’s a relationship, then they are drifting further apart.
A very succinct response! I would like to use it.
An excellently written explaination. Well expressed and the use of the examples was great as well.
I’m keeoing this site for future reference.

In the early morning hours of 24 Oct. 1968, United States Air Force (USAF) maintenance and security personnel stationed within the Minuteman, Intercontinental Ballistic Missile (ICBM) complex surrounding Minot AFB, North Dakota, observed one—and at times—two UFOs. The Minot Base Operations dispatcher initiated radio communications with personnel reporting in the field, Minot, Radar Approach Control (RAPCON), and the crew of a returning B-52H aircraft.
RAPCON alerted the pilots to the location of a UFO, which the B-52 navigator observed on the radarscope maintaining a three-mile distance throughout a standard 180° turnaround. As the B-52 started its descent back to Minot AFB, the UFO appeared to close distance to one mile at a high-rate of speed, pacing the aircraft for nearly 20 miles before disappearing off the radarscope. Both B-52 UHF radios would not transmit during the close radar encounter with the UFO and radarscope film was recorded.
Shortly afterwards, RAPCON provided vectors for the B-52 to overfly a stationary UFO on or near the ground. After turning onto the downwind leg of the traffic pattern, the pilots observed a large, illuminated UFO ahead of the aircraft for several minutes, before turning onto the base leg over the UFO while observing it at close range. After the B-52 landed, both outer and inner-zone intrusions alarms were activated at the remote missile Launch Facility Oscar-7. The duration of reported observations was over three hours.
USAF Strategic Air Command, Offutt AFB, Nebraska, initiated inquiries. In the weeks following, staff at USAF Project Blue Book, Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio, completed a final case report mandated by Air Force Regulation 80-17.

London 16 April 2018. Rechargeable batteries are said to be a way to extend the appeal of rooftop solar installations, storing the energy generated during the day for use at night. Home energy storage looks set to become big business: Tesla has already entered the marketplace, looking to apply its expertise in batteries to generate a new source of income. Other big-name motor manufacturers are expected to follow.

This is compelling evidence that depression is a real illness.
Depression affects approximately 322 million people worldwide, making it the largest contributor to global disability. However, the fact that depression is an actual illness rather than a mood is only beginning to gain traction. Advances in the genetic basis of depression is helping that happen: In 2015 scientists discovered the first two genetic markers linked to the development of major depressive disorder, and on Monday, researchers reported in a new study that the genetic link is even more profound.
In a paper published in Nature Communications, an international team of scientists reveal 80 more genes that are linked to depression. This discovery, they write, will help explain why some people are more likely to become depressed and may lead to the development of new treatment drugs.
Brains of depressed people have a mild decreased frontal lobe blood flow.
This study bolsters support for the theory that depression can be, at least in part, hereditary. Previous studies on twins found that the heritability of major depression disorder is estimated at 37 percent, although factors like being female and living in areas of greater social deprivation affect the development of depression as well.
At least 10 percent of Americans will experience major depressive disorder at some point in their lives — a huge number that underscores our need for answers. The authors of this new study write that because depression is a heterogeneous condition, there’s a need for even larger studies on its genetic roots in order to “improve diagnosis, treatment, and patient outcomes.” These nearly 80 genes linked to depression are there; now it’s time to see what doctors can do with that information.

Fidelity and Vanguard have recently reported that the value of the average retirement fund has risen in the last year.
Automatic enrollment in retirement accounts is helping investors save more.
But, when faced with a complex choice of making a retirement investment, many still decide to opt into the "no decision" mode and don't sign up at all.
It's true the value of retirement funds has risen as the market has soared: Fidelity and Vanguard have recently reported that the value of the average retirement fund has risen in the last year.
Automatic enrollment in retirement accounts is helping investors save more. As of the end of the second quarter, 33 percent of Fidelity's 22,600 401(k) plans auto enrolled new employees, more than double the percentage (15 percent) that did so in 2008. Bigger companies have an even higher success rate.
At Vanguard, the average 401(k) account value for an investor age 65 and older is $209,984. This sounds like a pretty good number, and it is, but there's a problem. That number is pulled higher by a smaller number of "super savers" and high income earners.
Part of the low savings rate can be explained by the fact that enrollments in 401(k) plans have increased in recent years, which means that those new accounts have relatively small balances. But often it's because many participants still don't contribute the full amount they are allowed to contribute, and many lack the proper planning skills to make retirement decisions.
When faced with a complex choice of making a retirement investment, many still decide to opt into the "no decision" mode and don't sign up at all. Only 72 percent of eligible employees are enrolled in their employer's voluntary savings program, according to Vanguard.
More automatic enrollment in retirement accounts. Vanguard, in its annual report entitled "How America Saves 2018," noted that plans with automatic enrollment have a 92 percent participation rate, compared with a participation rate of just 57 percent for plans with voluntary enrollment.
"Our challenge is to encourage more individuals to take advantage of these workplace savings plans," said Jean Young, senior research analyst in the Vanguard Center for Investor Research and lead author of "How America Saves." "Plan sponsors can help their employees move the dial even further by defaulting at higher savings rates, and implementing annual increases."
Finally, if it sounds like I am obsessed with how to get the retirement savings rate up, it's with good reason. The other two "legs" of the retirement "stool," Social Security and pensions, are increasingly under pressure.
As of January 2017, the average retiree receives $1,360 a month from Social Security. That's $16,320 a year. About one-third of adults over 65 also collects a pension, but it's not a large amount of money. The median private pension was only $9,376 a year, according to the Pension Rights Center (state, local and federal pensions were higher).

Up until now, checking in to an Airbnb listing was one of the sloppiest, most human components of the Airbnb user flow. Hosts would point guests to their check-in instructions on their listing page, or send instructions to guests about how to get the key, notes about how to enter the building and listing, and other useful check-in information. In fact, Airbnb says that check-in was one of the primary uses for photos in Airbnb messages.
Given all the redundancy in messaging each individual guest, hosts started to create their own docs or PDFs with clear instructions to send to guests.
But Airbnb is finally stepping in with a helping hand. The company is today introducing an integrated check-in flow within the app and on the web that will show detailed, step-by-step instructions on how to check in to a listing for all hosts that opt-in to the feature. Airbnb will send an email three days before the guest’s trip with the same instructions.
This way, hosts can set up comprehensive check-in instructions that are sent to guests automatically instead of all the back-and-forth, copy-and-paste messaging they used before.
It’s a small update, but one that should make a big difference to hosts who use the home-sharing service frequently.

The question comes to mind as we watch Barack Obama abandon cooperation in favor of strategies that bypass Republican obstruction on Capitol Hill. Obama’s approach is understandable, but turning to executive orders and other paths to one-party action will only aggravate the problem of political dysfunction. In the short run, Obama may be able to ram his preferences through, but he invites similar action by future Republican presidents. Instead of defusing partisan conflict, Obama will fuel its expansion.
It was not always a problem to have a one-party presidency, but over the past 75 years, the Oval Office has amassed an exceptional amount of power. Presidents control policy for air quality, energy exploration, education, health care, consumer protection and many other matters through agency regulations, executive orders, and other unilateral actions. Presidents dominate foreign policy even more. They decide when we go to war, which foreign governments we recognize, and which undocumented immigrants we deport. As Arthur Schlesinger, Jr., wrote, we now have an imperial presidency.
Members of Congress from both sides of the aisle would have other reasons to cooperate with a bipartisan White House. For example, they could share in the credit for presidential achievements. During President Obama’s first term, Republicans recognized that even if they voted for the economic stimulus or health care reform, Democrats would receive all of the credit for the programs. GOP members of Congress could benefit politically only by opposing legislative initiatives from the White House and hoping the initiatives would be defeated or would fail after enactment. With bipartisan presidential proposals, both parties could share in the credit for success.
All members of Congress also would be in a better position to get help from the executive branch for their constituents. As I found during my service in the Indiana House of Representatives, legislators often do more for their districts by cutting through governmental red tape than by passing bills. But I also found that I could help my constituents with the executive branch only when it was headed by a governor of my own party. With a two-party executive, every member of Congress could find a receptive ear in the White House.

It’s like the old saying goes: March comes in with a critically acclaimed TV season premiere, and then also goes out with a critically acclaimed TV season premiere. Which is to say, FX rolled out the debut dates for some of its most beloved established shows today, announcing at the TCA press tour that both Atlanta and The Americans will be coming back to fulfill our “sketchy mom” dreams this March. Donald Glover’s examination of life and hustle in the Georgia capitol—now dubbed Atlanta Robbin’ Season for its second outing—will be back first, with the season premiere arriving on March 1.
These heavy hitters aren’t the only FX shows debuting in the third month of 2018, though; the network is also launching Danny Boyle’s Trust, about the Getty family kidnapping drama, which is apparently the Deep Impact/Armageddon common interest story of early 2018. Donald Sutherland’s starring in that one—for now, anyway—and it’ll debut on March 25.

12 new officers will be sworn with Warren Police in Mayor Jim Fouts' office. Fouts: This is "the largest percentage of diversity hiring in the city."
Warren's nearly all-white police force will gain some more diversity Friday with the swearing in of a dozen new officers including three who are African American and two who are Hispanic, Mayor Jim Fouts said in a news release.
Currently, there are only two African Americans among the department's 203 sworn officers, Police Commissioner William Dwyer said. One of the black officers is not working and suing the city for racial discrimination.
Warren, the third largest city in Michigan, has a population of about 135,000, of which 17.4 percent is black and another 2.2 percent is Hispanic, according to the U.S. Census Bureau QuickFacts.
Fouts called the hires "a significant diversity commitment to the Warren Police Department." He noted that he has appointed African Americans as fire commissioner, city attorney, communications director and diversity coordinator.
Dwyer said the department has Middle Eastern and Chaldean employees and a significant number of women. He said an animal control officer and a dispatcher, both civilian positions, are African American.
The city and police force have been under fire after a police officer filed a federal lawsuit, alleging racial and sexual mistreatment from co-workers during her time in the force.
Last month, a U.S. district judge ruled that Fouts can be questioned by attorneys in the lawsuit filed by DeSheila Howlett, who started working as a Warren police officer in 2006. She named the city, the former police commissioner and fellow officers as defendants.
In the complaint, Howlett said she was the first black police officer to be employed in the history of Warren and was "constantly peppered with inappropriate, insulting, demeaning, racially stereotypical, offensive comments, jokes, statements, conversations, and other conduct by her similarly-situated white police officers including, but not limited to, supervisors."
She also alleged she was repeatedly not supported with proper backup due to her race and gender. She said became ill and was unable to continue working "in the toxic environment."
Her attorney, Leonard Mungo, has said a lack of training in diversity led to Howlett's constitutional rights being violated.
Earlier this month, Fouts' attorney filed a motion asking the court to file under seal two exhibits: his affidavit and a letter of intent from the city's former diversity coordinator. Howlett has asked the court to deny that motion.
Fouts' attorney has filed a motion to vacate the judge's order and to issue a protective order against the taking of Fouts' deposition, or prohibiting any video-recording of his deposition and sealing all transcripts and recordings taken during his deposition. His deposition is set for August, according to court records.
Fouts has faced several controversies through the years about statements that he either made or was purported to have made that were recorded and released.
The most recent was more than a year ago when audio tapes were released in which a man — purportedly him — was heard disparaging women, African Americans and the mentally disabled. Fouts has adamantly denied making the statements and claimed the tapes were manufactured by his political enemies.
Of the new hires, all are working officers, coming from other police departments, including six from Detroit, in a program in which only certified, employed police officers could apply for the positions, Dwyer said.
"Our goal is, and was, to hire the best of the best," the police commissioner said, adding that the new officers have 96 years of experience combined at departments including Fraser, Oak Park, Dearborn Heights, Saginaw, Grand Blanc and the Macomb County Sheriff's Office.
He said within 48 hours, the department received more than 100 applications. The top 27 were selected after background investigations and interviewed during the several months long process.
City officials said they believe better benefits is one reason for the large number of applicants. Dwyer said the city force offers opportunity for advancement and working in specialized areas.
"It's very difficult to recruit officers today," he said. "All departments in the state are short on officers."
Ten of the new officers will replace retired officers. Two others were added to the 2018-19 budget, according to Fouts' release.
City officials said about 10 other police officers will be promoted and retiring officers will be recognized at the ceremony in Fouts' office.

We were doing so well. Writing about economics and politics for the last five months here without once mentioning the US presidential race. But it’s all over. Mitt Romney has given us no choice, wading into the debate about the origins of inequality and prosperity around the world.
I was thinking this morning as I prepared to come into this room of a discussion I had across the country in the United States about my perceptions about differences between countries. And as you come here and you see the G.D.P. per capita, for instance, in Israel which is about $21,000, and compare that with the G.D.P. per capita just across the areas managed by the Palestinian Authority, which is more like $10,000 per capita, you notice such a dramatically stark difference in economic vitality.
Culture makes all the difference. And as I come here and I look out over this city and consider the accomplishments of the people of this nation, I recognize the power of at least culture and a few other things. One, I recognize the hand of Providence in selecting this place.
Mitt Romney also identifies the origins of his thinking as David Landes’s The Wealth and Poverty of Nations and Jared Diamond’s Guns, Germs and Steel (though presumably not the origin of his numbers, which are incorrect; the gap between per capita in Israel and West Bank and Gaza is about tenfold).
Well actually, Jared Diamond doesn’t say much about culture. In fact, his thesis is about how geographic and ecological conditions led to the differential development paths and prosperity among otherwise identical peoples. In fact his theory would predict that Israelis and Palestinians should have identical levels of prosperity.
Readers of this blog and of Why Nations Fail have already heard us inveigh against geographic determinism. Those interested in this debate can start from Jared Diamond’s engaging and critical review of our book in the New York Review of Books, and then look at our letter and Jared’s response. Perhaps it’s just us. But doesn’t Diamond just say that he disagrees with us but without substantiating how he counters our arguments?
In any case, we digress. Mitt Romney is instead taking his cue from David Landes. But as we show in Why Nations Fail, cultural differences cannot explain differing levels of prosperity. Deng Xaioping didn´t change Chinese culture after 1978 to make the economy grow, but he did change economic institutions a lot. Indeed, many cultural differences we see are the outcomes of different institutional choices. This is surely the case between North and South Korea, for example. After all, does Mitt and David think that there were huge cultural differences between the north and the south of the 38th parallel before the separation of Korea into two?
Of course the difference between Israel and Palestine is not the same as the two Koreas. It was created by the migration of Jewish people, mostly after World War II. Many came from much more developed parts of the world than Palestine which had endured centuries of debilitating Ottoman and then British colonialism. They brought more advanced technologies and high levels of human capital, which in themselves were the result of the institutions and incentives that they faced. As Maristella Botticini and Zvi Eckstein point out in their book The Chosen Few: How Education Shaped Jewish History, the origins of these very high human capital levels are in the historical adoption of institutions in Jewish society. This is where the roots of Isreal’s current prosperity lie. They have further been strengthened by Israel’s integration into the world economy, which has enabled it to continue the process of technology transfer and encouraged trade and investment.
this man doesn’t realize that the Palestinian economy cannot reach its potential because there is an Israeli occupation.
It seems to us that Mr. Erekat, not Mitt Romney, has the right idea.
We end this by agreeing with what Sandeep Baliga and Jeff Ely say on their blog. Mitt should do some more reading.

The US faces $21m (£10.6m) in annual trade sanctions as a result of its online betting ban, the World Trade Organization has ruled.
Antigua and Barbuda was awarded the right to impose sanctions that target US services, copyrights and trademarks.
Laws passed in the US in October 2006 effectively made it illegal for foreign internet gaming firms to trade there.
But in March the trade body delivered a final ruling saying that the US online betting ban was illegal.
Antigua had hoped to impose $3.4bn in retaliatory measures against the US and the amount awarded was described as a token gesture, given the massive size of the US economy.
The US said that Antigua's claim was excessive and more than three times the size of Antigua's entire economy.
"The United States is pleased that the figure arrived at by the arbitrator is over 100 times lower than Antigua's claim," said Sean Spicer, a spokesman for U.S. Trade Representative Susan Schwab.
Antigua, a former British colony of about 80,000 people, had been promoting electronic commerce as way to end the country's reliance on tourism, which was hurt by a series of hurricanes in the late 1990s.
The Caribbean nation is the smallest country to litigate a case successfully in the WTO's 12-year-history.
The case had drawn the attention of US industry because Antigua has threatened to target US trademarks and copyright, which could make the nation a safe haven for intellectual property piracy.
The ruling could "establish a harmful precedent for a WTO member to affirmatively authorise what would otherwise be considered acts of piracy, counterfeiting or other forms of ... infringement", the US said.
The US and Antigua cannot appeal against Friday's decision.
Mark Mendel, the lawyer who led the case for Antigua, said that the country was unlikely to violate US copyrights.
"Antigua doesn't want to negate American intellectual property rights. They don't want to sell ... DVDs and copies of Microsoft Office."
Last year the US stopped US banks and credit card companies from processing payments to online gambling businesses outside the country, effectively killing off the market for overseas gambling firms.
About half of the world's online gamblers are based in the US, and the market is estimated to be worth $15.5bn.
Earlier this week, the EU said the US would offer its member countries trade concessions as compensation for its refusal to lift internet gambling laws.

The Bitcoin payroll and wage payment service provider Bitwage just announced the launch of unique International Bank Account Numbers (IBANs) for users receiving wages in the European Union (EU). This offer follows recent introductions of other service upgrades such as same day wage delivery.
An IBAN is an internationally-agreed-upon account format that contains information on which bank and country an account belongs to. Originally adopted by the European Committee for Banking Standards (ECBS) and later adopted as an international standard, it is now used in most European countries as well as many others outside Europe.
Now EU users have the first real option for a direct deposit into any wallet of their choice.
In addition, EU wage recipients can now view their wages in real time, flowing from EU companies to Bitwage. They no longer have to wait for Bitwage to process payrolls to know that the funds have been received.
Also, when wages contain ambiguous information, such as an address that does not closely match the employee’s records, the payment will no longer go through Bitwage’s claims process, which caused them unnecessary delays in the past. Workers had to upload personal information to prove that the funds belonged to them. Unique IBANs solve this problem since payment descriptions are no longer required for these transactions, Bitwage describes.
Unique IBANs will be automatically provided to all Bitwage Premium users in the EU. Other users with monthly transaction volumes exceeding 1,999 euros can also request unique IBANs, the company’s announcement details.
Bitwage claims to have over 10,500 registered users in total and have processed over 18.3 million international wages. Its website lists Google, Airbnb, Facebook, Uber, the World Health Organization, and Upwork as examples of companies using Bitwage to pay some of their workers.
Since receiving a grant from Bpifrance and moving half of our team across the world to Paris as winners of the French Tech Ticket, we have been hard at work looking to expand throughout Europe and improve our European solutions.
Another recent upgrade was the launch of “Bitwage Authenticator”, a secure Time-limited One-Time-Password (TOTP) functionality that syncs user accounts directly through the Bitwage iOS and Android apps. It “provides more security than typical SMS 2-Factor passcodes and more convenience than google authenticator,” according to the company’s announcement.
What do you think of Bitwage’s new offers for European customers? Let us know in the comments section below.

I was featured this week on a new site called How I Work (now defunct). The site is about letting developers watch screencasts to see how other people work and improve their productivity by learning about new tools and practices. Given the interest in how focused work in an all inclusive environment can help productivity, they contacted me about putting up a workbench on how I use Emacs and how it fits into my overall OS X workflow.
Please check it out and vote up my video so other people learn about me, McGeary Consulting Group, and our favorite editor.
Brilliant! I only missed (but it’s not your fault, of course) a sample of AucTeX with preview. It usually has the “ooh!” effect in any friend I have who does any LaTeX typing. I work in a mostly “vi” department, only two people use emacs and only two other people use something which is not vi or emacs, so I try to evangelise a little from time to time.
I’m curious (as a fellow Mac user), what did you use to record the screencast?
Nice screencast! Just a tip – in Emacs 23, you can start (and insert a counter, which is very handy) a macro with F3, and finish it/run it with F4. Run with C-u 0 F4 it will keep running until a serious error occurs, which is also handy.
Ruben, Thanks! I agree, there is an “ooh!” effect of demoing AucTeX. I just don’t use LaTeX that much, and I’m afraid to demo AucTeX; the setup to get everything working isn’t always trivial. I used Camtasia for Mac to record. I started by using ScreenFlow but had to switch midstream. I like the UI of ScreenFlow better, but it’s buggy as all hell, and it wasted a lot of my time. Camtasia did crash once, but it always worked as I expected it to, and I didn’t lose anything.
Oscar, Yes, I actually use the F3 and F4 keys for macros; however, I just ran into an issue with a combination of my screen recording software, the software that displayed my keystrokes, and Emacs. Some of my function keys were taken away on a global level, and I couldn’t use them in Emacs during the screencast recording. I probably should have worked around it by remapping the keys in those other programs, but it didn’t occur to me at the time.
Loved the screencast! Just wondering what hotkey do you map LaunchBar to, to avoid conflict with emacs?
Thanks Josh. I use command-space for LaunchBar. I remap Spotlight to option-command-space.
The macro doesn’t function with emac 23 and Joomla 3. Are there any reasons known?

Moscow and Beijing have been cutting the share of the US dollar in bilateral settlements, as trade between the countries rapidly grows.
Last year, bilateral trade between Russia and China increased by 31.5 percent, reaching $87 billion. This year, it is expected to reach $100 billion, the Russian Economic Development Ministry told RT.
As trade grows, Russia and China are also promoting settlements in ruble and yuan, bypassing the US dollar and other Western currencies. “It makes it possible to reduce the dependence on the influence of third countries,” the Russian Central Bank told RT.
According to the Russian regulator, both Russian and Chinese companies are willing to pay in ruble and renminbi, and this can be proven by real numbers. Last year, nine percent of payments for supplies from Russia to China were made in rubles; Russian companies paid 15 percent of Chinese imports in the renminbi. Just three years ago, the numbers were two and nine percent, respectively.
Direct payments in the ruble-yuan pair do not imply the participation of American, British, or EU banks. This significantly reduces the control of the West from ongoing transactions, and makes the trade turnover between Russia and China independent. Moreover, such payments can be made without SWIFT through the China International Payments System (CIPS).
The Moscow Exchange also highlights the growing interest in the ruble-yuan pair. “Since the launch of trading of the currency pair in 2010, the total volume of transactions with the yuan has exceeded 2.7 trillion rubles (around $45 billion),” spokesman for the exchange Igor Marich told RT.
Marich added that more than 170 Russian banks and brokerage companies from different regions of the country are making deals with the yuan at the Moscow Exchange. China is represented by its financial giants – the Bank of China, ICBC, China Construction Bank and Agricultural Bank of China. The ruble-yuan exchange rate is calculated without the participation of the US dollar, and is based on investor demand, he said.

August 12, 2018 by R. Hobbus J.D.
BEDMINSTER, N.J. – During an extravagant ceremony at his Bedminster, New Jersey golf club and resort on Sunday, President Donald J. Trump bestowed upon himself the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the highest civilian award in the United States, for doing what he referred to as “a tremendous job” since taking office on January 20, 2017.
Donald Trump is the first sitting president in U.S. history to receive the prestigious Presidential Medal of Freedom as well as the first president in U.S. history to bestow the honor upon himself. Past recipients include Muhammad Ali in 2005; Stephen Hawking in 2009; and Bill Gates in 2016.
is this for real? I just can’t believe the level of self love this idiot has.
Please tell me this isn’t real. If it is, someone should let our commander and chief know that pre civil war slavery doesn’t count as employment.
This is the first time I’ve evr seen a FAKE president.
This is fake. The only medal Lord Voldemort will receive is behind steel bars, wearing an orange jumpsuit and enjoying fabulous nights with his cell mate Bruno.
Like your story on Obama claiming Kenya as his homeland in any other way but through his gene pool, this is a farce. You should put a caption somewhere telling your readers this is satire, not “Real News Right Now.” Other-wise, it is just more crap meant to confuse and obscure reality.
This is a bold faced lie. You should be ashamed.
Trump should never have done it. In a moment of weakness, they may find him hanging from it in his jail cell.

62 percent in the POLITICO/Morning Consult survey see disorder amid problems with Cabinet selections.
A strong majority of voters say President Donald Trump’s administration is running chaotically after Trump’s pick for veterans affairs secretary, White House physician Ronny Jackson, withdrew his name from consideration last week, according to a new POLITICO/Morning Consult poll.
More than 3 in 5 voters, 62 percent, say Trump’s administration is running very or somewhat chaotically — nearly twice as many as the 32 percent who say it’s running very or somewhat well.
A majority of Republicans, 68 percent, say the Trump administration is running well. But that sentiment is shared by few Democrats (9 percent) and independents (25 percent).
Moreover, the percentage of voters who see chaos in Trump’s White House has increased modestly, but steadily, in recent weeks. In early April, 61 percent of voters said the Trump administration was running chaotically. In mid-March it was 57 percent, and in early March it was 54 percent.
Nearly half of voters, 49 percent, say the Trump administration has done a poor job when it comes to hiring and retaining qualified people — roughly twice as many who say the Trump administration has done an excellent or good job combined.
The new survey was conducted April 26-May 1 — in the wake of Jackson’s withdrawal from consideration to head the Veterans Affairs Department, and as questions continued to swirl around a handful of other Cabinet members, including Attorney General Jeff Sessions and Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Scott Pruitt.
Pruitt — embattled over what critics call profligate spending on personal items at EPA, including first-class airfare — is lesser known. Only 19 percent view Pruitt favorably, compared with 32 percent who view him unfavorably. Roughly half say they have never heard of him, or have heard of him but don’t have an opinion.
After receiving that information, a majority of respondents, 59 percent, say Pruitt has not conducted himself appropriately. Far fewer, 11 percent, say Pruitt has acted appropriately.
A slight majority, 53 percent, say Pruitt should be removed from his position as EPA administrator, while only 12 percent say he should not be removed. More than a third, 35 percent, have no opinion.
Pruitt isn’t getting much backup from Republicans, the poll shows — though there isn’t a loud drumbeat to remove him.
Overall, voters want the Trump administration to do more to protect the environment. A 54 percent majority say the federal government should do more to strengthen environmental protections, even if it hurts some businesses. That’s more than twice the 23 percent who say the U.S. should do more to help businesses, even if it weakens environmental protections.
A majority of voters, 59 percent, say the U.S. should be a part of the Paris Agreement, the deal reached between 195 countries to reduce global greenhouse gas emissions. Only 18 percent of voters say the U.S. should not be part of the Paris accord.
But a 43 percent plurality says the U.S. should not provide aid to help developing countries reduce carbon emissions in their own countries, compared with 31 percent who think the U.S. should provide that aid to developing countries.
Half of voters, 50 percent, say EPA is not doing enough to address the issue of climate change — roughly two times the 26 percent who say the EPA is doing enough to address climate change.
Trump’s approval rating in the poll is 42 percent, unchanged from last week. And Democrats retain their 9-point lead on the generic congressional ballot, equaling the party’s 2018 high water mark from last week.
The POLITICO/Morning Consult poll surveyed 1,991 registered voters and has a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 2 percentage points.

Why should you care? It’s just a bunch of stupid hippies and jobless freaks expressing their angst because they can’t get a job with their smelly dreadlocks, right? Well, maybe not. This movement is tapping into the very core of the reasons underpinning the Great Recession, tapping into ancient history and even potentially changing the course of the political debate in the United States and around the world through its grass roots and social media approach. Click here for a global map of protest locations around the world. More interesting than the countries on the map IMHO are the glaring exceptions: quasi-communist China, formerly communist Russia and most of Africa. Freedom of expression is a wonderful thing.
The drivers of the movement are many, however one of the more powerful statistics (click here for a primer) is that the top 1 percent of Americans possess a greater net worth than the entire bottom 90 percent. What’s making people angrier still is the drop in lower and middle class income against this top 1 percent. While no one is really talking about the reasons, it’s pretty simple. While the middle class in America grew wealthy primarily due to rising home values tied to mortgages, the wealthiest decile was predominantly invested in their own businesses and didn’t rely on loans for their wealth, so when the bottom fell out of the housing market worldwide, they were immune.
But enough about money. What this post is about is recognizing the political impetus for change evident in OWS. Some have called it the left leaning version of the Tea Party movement. And it is. In fact, I have great respect for both movements, as impossible as that may sound to Europeans. And I am not one to shy away from controversial positions, as evidenced by my post on WikiLeaks. Both organic movements were born out of a frustration with the current self-serving political structure that is willing to change absolutely nothing. So much for Obama! But what the OWS is sorely lacking is a well-defined set of goals and more importantly, a charismatic spokesperson. From my strategic marketing perspective, what they need to ultimately succeed is a leftist version of Sarah Palin. And much like the billionaire Koch brothers (whom the only viable Republican candidate for President of the US, Mitt Romney has been courting) were soon outed as the financial engine of the Tea Party, it’s only a matter of time before the people financing the Occupy movement are exposed.
The grassroots model which OWS champions, based loosely on the Egyptian protests which made effective use of social media to spread discontent with an unpopular and autocratic government worldwide is the closest the modern world has seen to a direct democracy since ancient Greece. Could this be the way forward? Say what you will, but the Occupy movement is absolutely right about one thing. Money should not equal political influence. The will of the people should. If it weren’t for the crack rock habit corporate money represents to US politicians, Congress would have changed legislation to outlaw the dubious financial instruments which nearly sunk the global economy years ago. Shame on you, elected representatives.
Sadly, while most Americans still want to believe in the Dream and many will tell you that hard work is the key to success, the stats offer a much starker reality. Income inequality in the US now ranks in the bottom third of the world, is greater than in most of the developed world (including Europe) and is in fact very close to Russia’s. Not exactly the comparison Americans aspire to. Slovenians reading this post can take comfort in knowing their country is best in the world when it comes to income equality, even if it could be doing a much better job in attracting FDI, reforming its 3rd world judicial system and job creation.
Way forward? You tell me, but change is in the making, and if history has taught us anything, it’s that revolutions can be sudden, unpredictable and harsh. France’s Marie Antoinette learned that the hard way. America was forged through a revolution. Will it be re-born through one? Or will the OWS movement simply fade into oblivion? Only time will tell, but the clock of political change is ticking, many people are fed up and the younger generations are the ones with a future to lose… Not to mention the whole world is watching.

Westbury Park is a suburb of the city of Bristol, United Kingdom. It lies to the east of Durdham Down between the districts of Redland and Henleaze. The area is very similar in character to nearby Redland and comprises mainly Victorian and early twentieth-century architecture, along with a selection of Georgian buildings. Many of these buildings still have their original house names and many Victorian artifacts have been found in the gardens of Westbury Park.

The handling course is a section of vehicle industry proving grounds which provides the possibility to examine vehicle behaviour, vehicle manoeuvrability, and technical settings under controlled no-traffic circumstances. This track, which typically forms a loop, is often compared to smaller racecourses; it is, however strictly designed for testing. The layout of its environment imitates motorway circumstances.

McLaren has announced that Eric Boullier has resigned as its Racing Director after four years in the role. Whether this will help or hinder the team's progress remains to be seen. The resignation is entirely believable because Boullier has been frustrated for some time at not being allowed to get on and run the team as he wanted to, rather than having to answer to different directors and shareholders.
Racing teams run best when it is clear who the boss is and McLaren has suffered from the "matrix management" concept - in organisational and technical terms. This system was introduced by the previous management, with everyone apparently reporting to everyone else. It also helps if there is a clear "no compromise" racing mentality rather than a bureaucratic decision-making process which means that everything gets lost in committees and politics. Dictators are more effective than democracy.
When Ron Dennis was still around everyone knew who the boss was - even if the system existed in that era - but after he disappeared the matrix management seemed to take on a life of its own and to fall over itself. The team has been highly political in recent months. Boullier was a racer and just wanted to get on with the job but was not given the power to do so.
There are other changes as a result of the news with Simon Roberts, who is a very safe pair of hands, taking over the production, engineering and logistics of the team, while Andrea Stella has been appointed Performance Director, responsible for trackside operations. Former Indycar racer and occasional F1 manager Gil de Ferran will take up the new role of Sporting Director. It will be interesting to see if this combination can make a difference.
I am also hearing that the plans for an Indycar team for 2019 - which were not Boullier's idea - have now been axed, which is good news as it would have taken away from the team's focus on F1, which is essential if McLaren is to get out of its current mess. This was largely a marketing exercise, but as the core business is F1 it is much more important to get that working before diverting energy and attention elsewhere.
It will be interesting to see what happens next with the Frenchman, who came up through racing in the old school way, rather than running things by committee. He enjoyed success at DAMS and at Lotus F1 before moving to McLaren.
The management of F1 teams is increasingly complicated these days because of the size of the teams. Several of the old style teams have suffered because they cannot find the right balance between corporate management and the need to be racers, while newer organisations such as Red Bull and Mercedes have been able to adapt more easily.

At least Kurt got out and had some fun in Brazil, as this wasn’t the best of times in his addiction as you can see in this photo below on the balcony of the Hotel Intercontinental in Brazil.

Arthur Ashe was one of the most accomplished tennis players of his generation and the only African-American man to win a Grand Slam title, but he is best remembered for his grace off the court, his commitment to social justice and his courageous battle with AIDS.
Arthur Robert Ashe Jr. was born on July 10, 1943, in Richmond, Va., where he would grow up in a home located inside a blacks-only playground with tennis courts. His mother died when he was 6 years old, leaving him under the care of his father, Arthur Sr., who encouraged him to excel in school and in sports.
Under the tutelage of tennis coach Walter Johnson, who had also coached Althea Gibson, Ashe blossomed into the best tennis player in his area. Growing up in segregated Richmond, he was forced to go long distances to play white players. In 1960, his senior year of high school, he moved to St. Louis to cut down on his travel time.
He became the first African-American to win the National Junior Indoor tennis title and earned a tennis scholarship to UCLA. In 1963, he became the first African-American to play for the U.S. Davis Cup team, and in 1965, he won the NCAA singles championship.
After graduating from UCLA, Ashe joined the ROTC and was assigned to an analyst’s job in West Point so he could continue playing tennis. In 1968, he became the first amateur and the first black man to win the U.S. Open singles championship.
In 1975, Ashe became the first black man to win Wimbledon, defeating heavily favored defending champion Jimmy Connors in the final for the third and final Grand Slam singles title of his career.
Ashe spent much of his life fighting for change in South Africa, where the apartheid government refused to grant him a visa to play. In 1973, he was allowed to play and did so despite boycotts against South African sport. He believed that his presence could break down stereotypes, but in 1977, he realized his approach wasn’t working and joined the boycott.
“Arthur taught me the power of being able to say that you have been wrong, but you could always change direction,” wrote Richard Lapchick, one of the boycott’s leaders, for ESPN.
Ashe would make many goodwill trips to Africa to teach tennis to African youths. Sports Illustrated’s Frank Deford traveled with Ashe on one such trip in 1971. Ashe spoke of his desire to become a U.S. ambassador after his retirement.
Ashe suffered a heart attack in 1979 and retired a year later. He finished his career with 33 singles titles, including wins in the U.S. Open, Australian Open and Wimbledon. He won 27 Davis Cup matches for the U.S., and captained the team for five years, starting in 1981. In 1985, he was inducted into the International Tennis Hall of Fame.
In 1992, USA Today discovered that Ashe had AIDS, contracted from a blood transfusion after heart surgery. Ashe decided to announce his condition to the public before the paper ran the story.
Charlie Rose interviewed Ashe in 1992 to discuss his life, career, social activism and battle with AIDS. The interview, preceded by a 1993 interview with his widow, Jeanne Moutoussamy-Ashe, is available on the Charlie Rose Web site.

The FSU senior will be back with the Seminoles next season.
The Florida State men's basketball team got a big boost Friday with the announcement that senior forward Phil Cofer has been granted a medical hardship waiver and a fifth year of eligibility by the NCAA.
"I am happy to announce that I will be returning to Florida State's basketball team next season," Cofer said in a prepared statement on the team's Twitter page.
"I have been working hard, on and off the court, to prepare for another incredible season. I can't wait to put the Florida State uniform back on."
"(FSU head coach Leonard Hamilton) walked up and said, 'Congrats,' and just started laughing and smiling," Cofer said of how he found out.
"It's been a long period around this whole summer and we just didn't know when it was going to go down but I think Coach Ham had great confidence."
After averaging 6.9 points per game as a freshman in 2014-15, Cofer played in just 11 games as a sophomore before suffering a season-ending ankle injury.
His role was limited upon his return as a junior, but Cofer -- finally healthy -- broke out last year, playing a huge role in FSU's first Elite Eight run in 25 years.
He led the Seminoles with 12.8 points per game, averaged 5.1 rebounds and played a team-high 29.3 minutes per game as the only FSU player to start all 35 games.
"Those of us who have known Phil Cofer over the year realize the type of outstanding young man that he is. He's a Seminole through and through. He's a special kind of person," Hamilton said.
"For him to have the opportunity to continue his development and growth after going through those two years of chronic injuries, for the NCAA to give him this opportunity is what they're supposed to all be about."
The impact of Cofer being granted an additional year is amplified by freshman center Ike Obiagu's unexpected decision to transfer to Seton Hall after just one season with FSU.
"I'm so happy for him and so happy for his teammates," Hamilton said.
"We get to continue the growth of our program with a guy who more than anything else is not only a great player for us, he has great leadership qualities that really, really will be the type of leadership that we need for this team, where we are now."

Orlando City finished its 10-day Jacksonville preseason camp Saturday. These Lions are different from years past. Not since 2015 have there been so many youngsters or new faces, but never have there been so many established MLS veterans, either. How the new mesh with the old and how the young ones learn from their veteran teammates will determine Orlando City’s success in 2018.
Pierre Da Silva beamed as he answered questions about Josué Colmán. But not entirely out of praise for his new teammate.
“Actually, talking about players I played with in the past, I played against him in Mexico in the U-17s,” Da Silva said with a smile. “We played Paraguay, beat them 2-1.
Da Silva and Colmán are the two youngest players on the team, and they’ll turn 20 within three days of each other in July. New Lions Cam Lindley and Chris Mueller will be just 20 and 21, respectively, come Opening Day.
Together, the four of them comprise City’s young, exciting core looking to make a mark in 2018. Da Silva is coming off a stellar season in the USL, where he was named the top prospect under 20. As a senior at Wisconsin, Mueller led all Division 1 with 20 assists and was Big Ten Offensive Player of the Year, and Lindley put up seven goals and 20 assists in 43 games at North Carolina and never missed a start.
Then, of course, is Colmán.
“I do believe that he will grow into a very, very natural and gifted No. 10 in this league,” Kreis said of his young Designated Player.
There’s plenty of depth at midfield, so the youngsters won’t be forced into roles they can’t handle this year. And they’re surrounded by veterans they can learn from.
“It’s just a great sense of team culture,” Mueller said.
For a moment, Jonathan Spector found himself stuck inside an airplane simulator.
Spector is one of six players, along with Joe Bendik, Will Johnson, Sacha Kljestan, Yoshimar Yotún and Dom Dwyer, designated by the coaching staff at the team’s core leaders. The six of them went on a visit to Naval Air Station Jacksonville to speak face to face with servicemen and women about how and what it means to be a leader.
They had an engaging conversation and took back their lessons and simulator stories back to the team. The trip to NASJ was an extra shot in the arm for the group tasked with spearheading change in the locker room.
And with such a new team this year – 12 new faces and six without any MLS experience – it’s paramount that the leaders lead, and the younger ones learn.
All six of them have spoken publicly about their roles in shaping the younger players’ professional habits, and Kljestan and Yotún both said they don’t just see it as their responsibility, but something they relish.
On Saturday, Orlando City passed its first checkpoint of 2018: its first preseason training scrimmage.
The Lions faced the Dolphins of Jacksonville University in their training kits. No numbers, no refs and no substitution limits offered Jason Kreis a chance to evaluate his team against another for the first time.
Kreis said the same about the entire stay in Jacksonville. He was pleased with the players’ fitness and their commitment, and the coaching staff emphasized through their daily schedules the importance of the players getting to know one another.
Because once the players reach that level where they see themselves as one family, they can begin to establish a culture of accountability, and ultimately, winning.
A lot of the players, particularly the young ones, have spoken with an air of unbridled ambition about 2018. The more veteran players see how long the road ahead is and they understand the importance of setting attainable goals in the short and long terms.
It appears as though those lessons are being passed on and received.
But there are 27 days until the March 3 opener against D.C. United – plenty of time to iron out the details.

Were these Palestinian sisters, ages 13-23, planning a Hebron stabbing attack?
Israel Police arrested on Monday a 25-year-old Israeli suspected of trying to hit a Palestinian man with his car.
The incident took place earlier this month, when the Israeli, a resident of the Beitar Illit settlement, stopped his car near the Palestinian who was working as a street cleaner.
After hearing the man's Arabic accent, the driver then tried to run him over several times. He didn’t hit the Palestinian, and fled the scene. The Palestinian man filed a complaint and the suspect was arrested a day later.
The suspect was questioned and admitted to five other attempts to target Palestinians. In one instance, he beat a Palestinian at a store, and in another he smashed the windshields and headlights of a Palestinian-owned car. According to the police, the motive for all attacks – in which no one was significantly wounded - was nationalistic.

And considering that in due time “Атлоны” competed with Pentium and confidently bypassed Celeron, it is possible to assume that the novelty will be rather interesting. Especially if it can be overclocked (the old Athlon did it well).

The right-hander threw off-speed pitches off a mound in a bullpen session Tuesday at Dodger Stadium.
LOS ANGELES -- Jimmy Nelson took another step forward Tuesday in his return from last September's right-shoulder surgery.
After visiting surgeon Neal ElAttrache and getting another positive report, Nelson began throwing off-speed pitches off a mound in a bullpen session before the Milwaukee Brewers' game against the Los Angeles Dodgers at Dodger Stadium.
"He was happy with everything, the strength tests and stuff," Nelson said. "It was a good check-in, basically. He was happy with the way that the throwing has been going and the way it's been looking. He's seen some videos every now and then.
"He gave me the blessing yesterday, basically, to start working on my off-speed stuff and to start slowly increasing the volume of the mound work."
Nelson last pitched in a game Sept. 8 at Wrigley Field, where he suffered a major injury to his throwing shoulder diving back into first base after singling during an at-bat.
He had surgery 11 days later and has been progressing slowly but surely ever since. Nelson was shut down by ElAttrache for a period of 10 days earlier in the season for rest, but he's been back on a throwing program since about the end of May and has been throwing off a mound since early July.
While no one is offering any firm timetable for Nelson to ramp things up even more, or, more important, when he might be able to pitch in a game, the news has still been good for the 29-year-old.
"I'm in a good spot," Nelson said. "Since we came back from the all-star break it's been progressing well. It still takes me a little bit of time to get loosened up and kind of get some of the aches and stiffness out of there. But after I get warm and loose it feels pretty good from there.
"You can't go from 50 percent to game speed one week to the next or you're probably going to hurt yourself. But the biggest thing we got from the doctor yesterday is he's not worried about anything being damaged from the throwing I'm doing. It's literally just a neuro-muscular thing at this point.
"Getting the nerves re-acclimated to the stresses of throwing. There's no telling how long that takes, but I'll be pretty happy and pretty pleased if it keeps progressing like it has since we got back from the all-star break."
Upon further review: Manager Craig Counsell was asked about the Brewers tenure of Jonathan Villar, who was traded for Jonathan Schoop earlier Tuesday in a swap of second basemen.
Villar had a breakout 2016 when he hit .285 with 19 home runs and 63 runs batted in and stole a major-league-leading 62 stolen bases. He regressed badly in 2017, losing his starting job at second base, and then wasn't much of a factor this season.
"I think Jonny’s a talented player. The last two years really, left-handed hitting-wise, he was just never able to get going," Counsell said. Villar hit .276/11/36 from the left side in 2016, .252/9/33 in '17 and .251/3/12 this season.
"He had a great season left-handed in 2016, and that’s what really made his season – he hit home runs and drove the ball in the gaps left-handed. This year it was a lot of ground balls and it kind of limited his offense a little.
"I think there were some other places he was improving a little bit. Defensively I think he was improving. But left-handed, you’re going to have more left-handed at-bats and he was kind of struggling getting the ball off the ground and driving the ball left-handed."

Good news if you are looking to be part of a new General/0Day torrent tracker. Three large, well established private trackers that are usually closed to the public have opened signups for a limited time. Romanian ShareReactor (RsR), LeechersLair (LL) and TorrentHR (THR) all now accept pubic registrations and you can now create accounts on these sites without the need for an invite code. RsR is one of the oldest private trackers based in Romania (launched in 2005) and the last time this tracker had an open signup was back in 2009. LeechersLair is another veteran tracker in the BitTorrent scene and it recently celebrated their 4th birthday. TorrentHR, a Croatia based ratio free tracker which has over 10000 torrents in its index, is opening signups after almost a year. All three of these tracks general content including movies, music, games, television shows, EBooks, Sports and so on.
RsR is considered to be one of the oldest Romanian trackers around and it has average pre times, decent download speeds plus a healthy flow of new daily torrents. Since this tracker’s name has the word ‘Romanian’ in it, most people mistake it for a torrent site indexing releases native to Romania. This is not the case – RsR has almost 100% English content including scene and P2P releases. It has a decently sized user base but note that it by no means is a another IPT or Zamunda – there are probably around 10k registered members on the site. This tracker makes up for the ‘not so large’ user base by having excellent download speeds. Ratio rules are very strict around here and even torrents with 2-5 seeders tend to have pretty good speeds. As of 12/9/2010, it indexed over 7500 active torrents.
Speaking of the content on RSR, it has everything a General tracker should have and then some more. RsR is home to the well known p2p release group iAPULA – expect to find a lot of their releases on this tracker ranging from individual movies, music to torrent packs. They haven’t been active a lot lately but you can find plenty of their old releases here.
TorrentHR is Croatian BitTorrent tracker. Although you don’t often hear about this site in BitTorrent forums and news blogs, it’s in fact one of the few torrent sites that successfully adapted the ratio free model. THR went ratio free back in September 2009, almost and year ago, and the site has been stable since then – unlike in many other cases, seeder/leecher ratios have not been affected and torrent lifetime does not appear to have reduced (and the text ‘No Ratio’ placed in the logo itself is a telltale sign that staff is proud of their achievement ) . THR has been online for several years but public registrations had been closed for the most part. Last time this tracker opened sign ups was in last September.
THR being a Croatian tracker, they do index a few releases that are native to Croatia. Default site language is Croatian but you shouldn’t have too much trouble finding your way around if you are an English speaking user. Anyways most indexed movies and TV series have English audio and there is plenty of English content available for download. You will most likely be able to spot the non English content based on torrent title. In addition to local, p2p and scene releases, this tracker is home to some good packs - their ‘Packs’ category now has over 300 torrents.
Here’s another torrent site that has not failed the test of time – LeechersLair (LL), a veteran General/0day torrent tracker recently celebrated their 4th year online, despite having to face various obstacles such as forced server shut downs, multiple URL changes and extended downtimes due to various issues. LL has stabilized in the past couple of months and it now functions smoothly as one of the better General/0Day trackers around. The site has a large user base exceeding 15000 active members and tracks over 7500 active torrents (stats as at 14/9/2010).
Thanks to its large users base, popular torrents on LeechersLair usually have 100-200 seeds each. Scene releases, P2P releases as well as LL exclusive torrents can be found indexed on the tracker (LL exclusives are torrents unique to LeechersLair – you probably won’t find these anywhere else). For those interested in getting in, signups are open for a limited time only.
Special thanks to Smece for the heads up on THR.
I personally wouldnt touch PulsedMedia if they were the last Seedbox company on the planet.
microd20 is a spam troll, he's spamming ads all over the place hoping to find a n00b to rip-off.
Thanks for the info about open signups, never heard of THR tho.

The idea of the Semantic Web has been present since 2001. Back at 2006, Tim Berners Lee, widely recognized as the inventor of the World Wide Web came publicly with an initiative that was supposed to make the web a better place. The goal was to form a web of data which would contain elements linked by ontologies. The ontologies are actually a formal way to represent naming, types, and relations between elements.
The benefits of this approach are obvious, it would make the web more searchable and accessible.
Even though that exact idea didn’t get much further, the goal of standardizing the web remains.
One of the efforts in this regard was the adoption of HTML5, which is an HTML specification that has semantics as one of its core ideas. For example, anyone can notice that recently <b> and <i> tags in HTML are replaced with <strong> and <em> tags. This is because bold and italic are too much presentation related, and don’t speak much of the content. Bold and italic wouldn’t matter much on a browser for blind people, for example.
This leads us to the next point which is – the separation of concerns. To be more precise, one of the key Semantic Web concepts is the separation of content and presentation. It’s a philosophy that says that the meaning of any document should be contained in one place, while that the logic for presenting it should be in another.
In the usual setup, it would mean that the content should be covered within the markup language – HTML, while styling should be done with a tool that is intended for such a purpose, such as CSS. I think that this makes sense in practice too, as by structuring HTML around what content actually means, rather than how it looks, you can later change the way it looks without having to edit both the HTML and the CSS.
My intention was to talk generally about the idea in this article. I don’t do much frontend stuff, so I am not going to discuss the actual development of Angular or Bootstrap apps, but rather the consequences it creates.
The most problematic thing to me is that frameworks such as Angular, Ember or Bootstrap clutter your HTML with needless elements, attributes and attribute values which make your HTML not conform to the original specification.
Personally, I don’t see how Angular’s ng-click is better than onclick, as these new attributes are not part of the original HTML specification. Yes, there are workarounds for this, if we are talking about Angular, but unfortunately most people don’t use them.
Bootstrap also has a bad practice of giving non semantic class names and if you thought that class names don’t matter, check this . Class names like “big” and “small” are diminishing the efforts to achieve separation of concerns.
It just doesn’t contribute much to bringing order to something that matters so much to everyone, don’t you think?
Thank you for the bright thoughts on the current front-end state. Although this article dates from mid-2015, the topic still produces sparkles between back-end and front-end colleagues.
Should we bring order to something that matters so much to everyone? Yes, we should. We are developers and that is actually our primary responsibility.
Bootstrap looks completely misunderstood and overused today. It is not a production framework, but a tool for scaffolding web projects and rapidly prototyping. If you are worried about the best practices, Bootstrap offers the ways to achieve them: you can extend custom Sass (now an official port) class names with Bootstrap ones and keep the markup clean.
Bootstrap is great to learn from, even from its weaknesses. Every front-end developer should be able to think in a component-based way. With the help of several CSS naming concepts (BEM, SMACSS, OOCSS), you may create highly flexible and modular front-ends that fit your/company needs. This process may take some time and that is why many companies today rely on a half-baked solution. The benefit of having an internal front-end framework is a lower dependency and higher maintainability.
Angular’s `ng-click` isn’t that bad because it is actually a shortened HTML5 attribute `data-ng-click` but compiler handles it behind the scene. I wouldn’t call it a valid tradeoff but we may prefix all the custom attributes with data-* and validator will be happy. As someone said “single-page apps draw a line in the sand of progressive enhancement” and that might be an issue. The question is what are you building and who is going to use it? If your app is going to be used by a specific organization or banking department people, it may be perfect to use (or create) a framework when you know the exact context and required features.
The web is an evolving medium—our expectations and playful interactions were unimaginative in the 90s, not to mention the range of devices, browsers, operating systems etc. Front-end today has to fit in various development and deployment processes, support different environments, care about security, handle data provided by back-end (REST), communicate asynchronously, and do a lot of stuff that wasn’t intended initially.

Last month, we briefly highlighted that auto loans with terms lasting as long as 84 months are becoming more common, thanks to a number of prevailing factors. Turns out, I should’ve dug deeper: as the Financial Times notes, we’re witnessing an uptick in new car buyers taking on 96 month loans. Eight years, folks.
The Financial Times piece highlights a lot of the figures we’ve noted in recent stories: record-setting loan amounts outstanding ($1.1 trillion, now $1.2 trillion), people paying record amounts for a new car ($27,430), a record number of people 90 days or more behind on their auto loan payment (6.3 million).
Lenders in America’s $1.2tn car-loan market are extending terms for as long as eight years, meaning they face a greater risk of defaults and meagre recovery values.
The average term on new car loans stood at 67 months — or five and a half years — at the end of 2017, according to data from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, having steadily risen since 2008. A small number of new loans are being extended out to between 85 and 96 months — or eight years — according to Experian data.
Eight damn years. Couldn’t be, I wailed into the void.
Ah, but I was wrong. In Experian’s review of the third quarter in 2017 for auto lending, the report found that the percent of new car loans in the 85-96 month range ticked upward to 1 percent from 0.9 percent.
That may seem minuscule, but at 17 million car sales per year, that represents about 17,000 more people in a year who took on loans with terms that last as long as eight years.
Technology disruption—like autonomous or electric vehicles—could create issues in the auto industry, but I think the impact of lending trends like this is something that might wind up more problematic for carmakers. At some point, it has to stop heading in this direction, and I think when it does, it won’t be pretty.

After many requests and based on the same concept of visualizing components for design reference, as used on the Elegant PCB Ruler, I would like to present you with this PCB Ruler dedicated to the RF and Microwave designer.
It includes the metric and imperial scales as well as the AWG 0-30 cable/wire gauge.
All the components are components or circuits as used in RF design, some dimensioned to-scale, others not-to-scale.
For example, one can see the real dimension of the quarter wavelength of 2.4 GHZ, or the real dimensions of a 25 Ohm microstrip transmission line. Other elements, like most of the antennas and filters are not-to-scale but given to inspire your own great ideas for new projects.
By making this ruler smaller in length but more than double in width, it has got with more area available for patterns and information. In addition, it appears artistic as the Elegant PCB Ruler and as most PCB designs too!
I have forgotten to point out that the first AWG gouge holes (0-7) are centered on the ruler's width. That means it may be hanged on your wall straight without bending!
PCB RULER - What is this?
Although it looks like a do nothing common ruler at first, let me explain some features I consider important, not easily found on those cheap plastic and inaccurate rulers bought from office supplies.
On the metric side, there is a 34 centimeter ruler with 1 cm, 0.5 cm and 0.25 cm markings, with 1 mm resolution.
A resolution of 0.5 mm is provided at the starting 2.5 centimeters area.
All these dimensions are printed with the accuracy of a CAD software design and of manufacturing from Gerber files, exactly the same way today's real PCBs are made..
This assures that the tool can really measure length.
Starting at 0 mm exactly on the edge adds the capability for measuring depth.
It has 23 holes, with diameter ranging from 0.2 mm to 2 mm with 0.1 mm resolution, and from 2 to 4 mm with 0.5 mm resolution, and these can be used to measure diameter. How many times it happened that new PCB you'd just made has a wrong hole diameter and the component cannot fit correctly?
It will not happen again, if while designing your new pcb, try fitting that connector pin or wire on the right hole to test prior to finalizing your design!
Just insert the lead into the hole that fits alright and read its diameter. Then, use that figure for your PCB design pad hole. This procedure is not at all similar to just measuring the pin diameter with a caliper and using this dimension, it should be made larger.
The tool can also help you to visualize the area needed for your circuit, because it has most modern component footprints printed on 1:1 scale just in front of your eyes, laying on a pcb material similar to what you are designing. This will help a designer benefit from a direct comparison from all those reference footprints.
A full AWG 30 to AWG 0 gauge helps to determine cable/wire size. About the AWG sized holes, please note that the actual AWG size dimension is drilled, so if you ever need to make a pad hole for a specific AWG size cable, you should use slightly larger diameter hole for that pad.
On the imperial side, there is a 13.38 inch ruler, with one/half/quarter inch markings, with 25 mil resolution.
Finally, the ruler sides have many examples of "printed components" one can use, physically made from pcb pads and traces completely. These include antennae, RF filters, couplers, splitter/combiner, fuses, inductors, a kind of touch or water sensor, a spark gap and some trace only drawing techniques, used for equal trace length, shielding and guarding sensitive circuits. This simple imperial/metric ruler turns to be a valuable PCB design aid.
Many friends of mine, not at all involved with electronics by themselves, find the look of this ruler attractive and a bit "artistic". I think it really is. Always PCB design was a kind of art. And some PCBs are pieces of Art!

In concordance with and following the earlier reports that the claims for discovery of these elements have been fulfilled [1,2], the discoverers have been invited to propose names. Keeping with tradition, the newly discovered elements have been named after a place or geographical region, or a scientist. The ending of the names also reflects and maintains historical and chemical consistency: “-ium” for elements 113 and 115 and as for all new elements of groups 1 to 16, “-ine” for element 117 and belonging to group 17 and “-on” for element 118 element belonging to group 18. The recommendations will be published in the IUPAC journal Pure and Applied Chemistry* (https://dx.doi.org/10.1515/pac-2016-0501).
The name nihonium with the symbol Nh for element 113 was proposed by the discoverers at RIKEN Nishina Center for Accelerator-Based Science (Japan); the name came from Nihon which is one of the two ways to say “Japan” in Japanese, and literally mean “the Land of Rising Sun”.
Moscovium with the symbol Mc for element 115 and tennessine with the symbol Ts for element 117 were proposed by the discoverers at the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research, Dubna (Russia), Oak Ridge National Laboratory (USA), Vanderbilt University (USA) and Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (USA). Both are in line with tradition honoring a place or geographical region. Moscovium is in recognition of the Moscow region and honors the ancient Russian land that is the home of the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research, where the discovery experiments were conducted using the Dubna Gas-Filled Recoil Separator in combination with the heavy ion accelerator capabilities of the Flerov Laboratory of Nuclear Reactions. Tennessine is in recognition of the contribution of the Tennessee region of the United States, including Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Vanderbilt University, and the University of Tennessee at Knoxville, to superheavy element research.
Lastly, and in line with the tradition of honoring a scientist, the name oganesson and symbol Og for element 118 was proposed by the collaborating teams of discoverers at the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research, Dubna (Russia) and Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (USA) and recognizes Professor Yuri Oganessian (born 1933) for his pioneering contributions to transactinoid elements research. His many achievements include the discovery of superheavy elements and significant advances in the nuclear physics of superheavy nuclei including experimental evidence for the “island of stability”.
Comments from the general public, during the 5 month period were many. Apart from many full agreements, comments were received suggesting other names, in some cases accompanied by petitions from large groups of people. However, these suggestions could not be accepted, given the fact that under the current guidelines only the discoverers have the right to propose names and symbols. Questions were also received about pronunciation of the names and the translations into other languages. Members of the chemistry community also raised the concern that Ts is one of the two commonly used abbreviations for the tosyl group. Recognizing however that many two-letter abbreviations have multiple meanings —even in chemistry, and for example Ac and Pr— the conclusion was made that the context in which the symbols are used, makes the meaning unambiguous.
“The names of the new elements reflect the realities of our present time” said IUPAC President Prof Natalia Tarasova, “universality of science, honoring places from three continents, where the elements have been discovered—Japan, Russia, the United States—and the pivotal role of human capital in the development of science, honoring an outstanding scientist—Professor Yuri Oganessian”.
The exploration of new elements continues, and scientists are searching for elements beyond the seventh row of the periodic table. IUPAC and the International Union of Pure and Applied Physics (IUPAP) are establishing a new joint working group which task will be to examine the criteria used to verify claims for the discovery of new elements.

The UK Government's EU withdrawal bill could remove the legislative competence of the Scottish Parliament and erode human rights, a leading legal professional body has warned.
The bill, which is being debated today at Westminster, will end the supremacy of EU law in the UK and convert all existing EU laws into domestic ones.
Scottish Secretary David Mundell has promised a "powers bonanza" for the Scottish Parliament, but the Scottish and Welsh Governments have called the proposals a "power grab" by UK Ministers.
In a briefing note the Law Society of Scotland said the draft legislation is "complex, difficult to interpret and lacking in clarity".
President Graham Matthews said MPs will have a difficult task addressing the issues in a tight timescale.
“We believe there needs to be a whole of governance approach to the UK withdrawal from the EU, which takes into account the devolved administrations and other key organisations and representative groups to ensure this complex bill works properly," he said.
"The effect of the bill would be to remove the legislative competence of the Scottish Parliament in relation to any matter in retained EU law. This would be the case even if it related to areas of law not reserved to the UK under the Scotland Act, such as agriculture or fisheries."
The Law Society also highlighted concerns about the potential erosion of people’s rights as the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights will not be part of UK domestic law after withdrawal under the terms of the bill.
A House of Lords Committee has also warned the bill "fundamentally challenges the constitutional balance" in the UK.
Baroness Taylor of Bolton, chair of the Constitution Committee, said: “The EU (Withdrawal) Bill represents an extraordinary transfer of legal powers from Parliament to the Government, without the additional oversight we recommended. We believe this will create very real difficulties for Parliament in fulfilling its constitutional role to scrutinise this Bill.

There are many great lists of security principles out there, including those from NIST, IEEE, and perhaps the originals from Saltzer and Schroeder.
I was helping some new security professionals recently and was looking for the best of these lists to provide, and I found them lacking. The Saltzer and Schroeder list is excellent, but it’s a bit abstract and quite dated. And the NIST and IEEE lists have their own issues.
Eric Cole was invaluable for me in conveying these types of concepts when studying for GSEC early in my career.
So I quickly made a list of my own that incorporates the best ideas from all of them and then added several others that I’ve heard from various sources over my 20 years in the industry.
This is a rough pass, and I’m not sure what (if any) form it’ll eventually take, but if you have any ideas on how to improve it, let me know!

Among the harshest of childhood life lessons is that franchised board games are rubbish. They look so enticing, favorite films and videogames made flesh in your quivering kiddy hands. Then, when you get it home, set it up and play it’s all cheap plastic and a thin skin over what’s basically Ludo or, at a push, Risk.
Well we’re here to help you unlearn that lesson, because toy manufacturers have been lying to you. It’s perfectly possible to make fantastic physical versions of digital games. The secret is simple: you need to get a talented designer who loves the source material instead of trying to make a fast cash-in.
Here’s a seven-step process to finding videogame nirvana in the real world.
If you haven’t had quite enough of watching innocent people die in the ruins of a bombed-out city on screen, now you can do it on a board. This is a cooperative affair that mimics the mechanics of the original quite closely. By day you’re working on your shelter. By night you’re venturing out into the ravaged buildings to scavenge for supplies.
What makes the whole thing come together is the included book of stories. It’s a little like a choose your own adventure affair that garnishes play with a rich level of narrative. The result is a unique experience, but not always a happy one.
Just as the original heralded a rebirth of popular strategy on screen, so this launched a whole new genre of board games driven by mobile apps. While the players work together training soldiers and managing resources, an AI in the app dictates alien plans and movement.
What turns the game into a thrilling pressure cooker, though, is that the app also puts a timer on all your activities. So instead of carefully measured planning, everyone ends up screaming at each other to make decisions before the clock runs down. In a neat twist the player controlling the app can waste precious seconds to “scan” for alien activity and get clues as to what’s coming next.
At this point, we’d forgive you for thinking there was a theme going on in the way publishers title these games. And there’s another, too: videogame licenses are expensive and board game publishers are poor. So when the license expires, the game is no longer in print and prices skyrocket. Such is the case for this Gears of War game, which now fetches three figure sums.
You might think that’s surprising, given that the slow pace of board gaming is anathema to an action game like Gears. Yet this is a startling and brilliant re-creation which focuses on the tactical use of equipment and cover. In yet another common theme, it’s a co-operative game with players controlling individual Gears against the Locust horde.
Real-time strategy is a much closer fit to the board game strategy and this 2007 adaptation didn’t disappoint. In addition to innovative combat and resource management, it framed everything in a high-level campaign. Players competed with their factions for control of a modular map of interconnected planets.
Unfortunately it’s been out of print for some years and now sells for eye-watering sums. Fortunately you can still experience much of its brilliance with a different theme. The publisher re-used a lot of its ideas in the Forbidden Stars game, set in the Warhammer 40,000 universe. That is now also out of license and out of print so if you like the sound of it, grab it now before prices go interstellar.
Strangely, this League of Legends board game didn’t come from an independent publisher but direct from Riot Games. And it’s a labor of love, arriving in a colossal box full of gleefully overproduced components. There are metal coins, plastic gems, painted Yardles and exactly one hundred minion miniatures.
It’s another co-op affair, but with a twist. Players don’t move their pieces directly but instead assign them a program of orders before a timer runs out. Then it’s general hilarity as the unexpected consequences of mistakes play out like a line of dominoes toppling over. Print runs are limited, so invest now if you fancy it.
As if the rules to tabletop games weren’t confusing enough, publishers like to confuse you with editions, too. There’s a 2004 board game version of this, which is okay. There’s also a 2016 reboot to go with the reboot of the digital version, which is a whole lot better.
One player controls the demons while all the others work together as marines against the hellish horde. Combat is fast, fun and tactical all at once. And a variety of objectives for all the different players ensures replay value with no two games playing out the same.
The source game presents designers with a problem: how to re-create the learning experience that characterizes the series? Well, this game went with the grind. It’s a tough challenge. But players can gain an edge by practicing against repeated waves of underlings before trying it on against the boss.
When they do, they’re in for a treat. Although the characters and enemies are all drawn from the original game, boss fights literally take it up a notch. Half way through the fight, they get a “heat up” card giving them a whole new slew of abilities. It’s down to players to handle the sudden change as best they can, otherwise it’s the dreaded “YOU DIED” text all over again.

Further investigation of ██████ ███, the now-absent tenant of the apartment SCP-2991 was discovered in, is underway. Among the documents recovered from the apartment was a wall calendar with three appointments written, namely "interview", "demonstration / good job Scarf!", and "start new job!!!".
It is of note that other small, unique objects were recovered from the apartment, including a bubble-blower in the shape of a one-eyed octopus, a scented throwing disc decorated with various fruits, and a hat with a solar-powered dancing flower on top. The additional items recovered have exhibited no anomalous effects, and are currently held in Site-77's low-priority storage unit. The box holding said items, now in storage as well, possesses no markings except for a stylized "W" and top hat logo drawn in ballpoint pen, along with the caption "demos".
When asked to comment on the items, SCP-2991 stated the hat was "TOO BUSY", and of the disc, "DOCTOR SAID CUTE". The rest of the objects were dismissed with the comment "AFTER ME".
Please return my Scarf to me. It is of no monetary value, and you may keep the other items you have taken. A reward will be given for its safe return. Please leave Scarf in the apartment, and when I have it back I will leave the reward.
I WILL KNOW IF SCARF HAS BEEN HARMED.
Discussion of further surveillance of the apartment is ongoing.
1. Attempts to remove samples of material from SCP-2991 for analysis have been discontinued, as SCP-2991 has exhibited severely distressed reactions when approached with any form of cutting implement.
2. Examples of behaviors observed in experimental settings include fear, excitement, and weariness/sleeping.
3. When removed from the door, the knife exploded in a shower of purple confetti. Confetti remains are currently in storage.

Let's take another look through the many-faceted opus, The Power Broker.
The Grand Central, Interborough, and Laurelton parkways opened early in the summer of 1936 [...] One editorial opined that the new parkways would, by relieving the traffic load on the Southern and Northern State parkways, solve the problem of access to Moses' Long Island parks "for generations."
But when they suggested improved mass transit ideas that groups such as the Regional Plan Association had been proposing, they were ignored.
On August 17, 1936, a little more than a month after the Triborough Bridge opened, Long Island's parkways were the scene of what some observers called the greatest traffic tie-up in the history of the metropolitan area.
Again, Moses called for more parkways and what would become the Long Island Expressway. And again, the press went along with it.
Having observed the problems, the RPA attempted to get provisions for a railroad link included on the proposed Bronx-Whitestone bridge. Moses refused to consider it.
At this point the book turns to the Gowanus Parkway, an elevated highway which ripped through the thriving Brooklyn neighborhood of Sunset Park, and destroyed the heart of it on Third Avenue. It replaced the elevated train line of Third Avenue which was supposed to be taken down in favor of the newly constructed Fourth Avenue subway. Instead it was replaced by a massive concrete elevated highway and the four lane avenue beneath was widened into a 10-lane road to carry the trucks which Moses would not allow on his "parkway."
The construction of the Gowanus Parkway, laying a concrete slab on top of lively, bustling Third Avenue, buried the avenue in shadow, and when the parkway was completed, the avenue was cast forever in darkness and gloom, and its bustle and life were forever gone. [...] Stores, restaurants and theaters had brought people to Third Avenue. Now half the stores, restaurants and theaters were gone.
Ultimately, many motorists going to and from the suburbs at peak rush hours are spending more time stuck in traffic, not less. The phenomenon is a result of a surge in drivers crowding onto highways - an ironic byproduct of the Big Dig's success in clearing away downtown traffic jams.
But hey, at least downtown's not covered by the Green Monster anymore, right? That's got to be worth something. Not $15 billion though. And not for a highway which should not have been built in the first place. The correct answer would have been to take it down and---at a fraction of the cost---replace it with a more appropriate boulevard having its congestion managed through pricing. Well, now the money's been spent, and in fact, we got the worst of both options: the above-ground boulevard stinks up the Greenway and the tunnel funnels cars into new chokepoints around the city. Oops.
Back in New York State, Governor Cuomo is attempting to force through a new Tappan Zee bridge that---like the Bronx-Whitestone---lacks bus lanes or railroad provisions. He even compared himself to Robert Moses at one point. The opposition is stronger this time, but it's an open question who will prevail.
Much of the 1950s automobile infrastructure in Metro Boston is decaying and coming to end-of-life. It could easily cost hundreds of millions, or even billions, of dollars to repair deteriorating tunnels and bridges. With the issue of transportation funding in the air, the fact shouldn't be lost that it is not worthwhile to restore these facilities to their 1950 state. We should not be held hostage to "traffic projections" when history so clearly shows that traffic is induced by the existence of these facilities in the first place. The roads have to be fixed in some way, as in many cases they are beyond repair. We could save a whole lot of money by choosing more appropriate, scaled-down designs which integrate with the city and improve quality of life for residents as well as visitors.
As for The Power Broker, there's tons more great material to sort through, I had to pare down quite a lot of excellent prose to keep the length of this post from becoming overwhelming. So I recommend checking it out yourself. Most of the quotes are from the first chapters of Part V, The Love of Power.

A remedy for masturbation which is almost always successful in small boys is circumcision. The operation should be performed by a surgeon without administering an anesthetic, as the pain attending the operation will have a salutary effect upon the mind, especiallyif it is connected with the idea of punishment.
This is child abuse by todays standard, but it was embraced as the norm in the late 19th century. This is the root of circumcision in this country today.
Each year, as people learned that the latest claim didnt work, a new disease was introduced that circumcision would cure. Dr. Paul M. Fleiss states, In fact, no procedure in the history of medicine has been claimed to cure and prevent more diseases than circumcision.
There is still confusion and much ignorance on this subject. Just last week, Sen. Brandon Shaffer, D-Longmont, was e-mailing constituents saying, Reliable studies prove that male circumcision reduces instances of infectious disease, some congenital obstructive urinary tract anomalies, neurogenic bladder, spina bifida and urinary tract infections.
Shaffer continued to dispense this fiction despite having been challenged previously by Dr. Mat Masem, who stated, There are rare therapeutic indications for male circumcision, which generally relate to pathologic conditions of the foreskin. However, a number of the conditions you mentioned as being positively affected by circumcision have absolutely nothing to do with the foreskin. Spina bifida is an anomaly of the spine; congenital obstructive urinary tract anomalies are related to urethral strictures or other abnormalities of the urinary tract; and neurogenic bladder is a neurological condition.
Sen. Irene Aguilar, D-Denver, was on the Senate floor last Thursday telling her colleagues that there is a link between reduced cervical cancer and circumcision. Excuse me? The American Cancer Society states: Research suggesting a pattern in the circumcision status of partners of women with cervical cancer is methodologically flawed, outdated and has not been taken seriously in the medical community for decades. It concludes by saying: Perpetuating the mistaken belief that circumcision prevents cancer is inappropriate.
Dr. Aguilar must have missed the memo.
Sen. Joyce Foster, D-Denver, the instigator of this bill, is repeating her mantra that This is not about religion. For her, it is about religion. No one is trying to change her faith, but the State of Colorado cannot and must not be paying to justivy her religious rituals, either.
All the senators who have been pushing this bill so hard will fail to tell you that although America has the highest number of sexually active cut men in the world, we also have the highest rates of STDs and HIV in the developed world as well. Circumcision has proven over and over again that it does not cure or prevent disease. Education, behavior, condoms and vaccines prevent disease.
Rep. Lois Court, D-Denver, the House sponsor of this bill, thinks that circumcision is some kind of special gift that bestows mainstream American-hood on poor boys and that we just cant deny this important medical choice to poor families just because of money. Well, her old mid-1900s paradigm worked for her in the 1950s, 1960s, 1970s and she hasnt needed or wanted to change it since then. Ironically, mainstream America is changing it for her and fast going the other direction. Young, educated, more affluent and technologically savvy parents are saying NO to circumcision in record numbers.
In the last century, the truth about circumcision was very hard to find. Americans, including experts in medical schoolshad forgotten everything about the foreskin, its functions, the long-term complications of neonatal surgery and the reasons circumcision started in the first place.
In todays world, in five minutes anyone with a smart phone can look up the history of circumcision, and the functions of the perfectly evolved, multi-purpose foreskin. They can see the horrendous complications and the long-term implicationsof circumcision and they say NO and they take their whole baby home, without any problems, just like the other 70-80 percent of the worlds people.
Please consider abandoning the old paradigm, if you are still embracing it. Read a book,go to a website, watch a video or documentary, talk with a doctor who has done her last circumcisio, or talk with a victim of circumcision complications. Be a leader.
Make sure that Colorado is not endorsing circumcision for poor people who dont always have the time, energy or resources to discover what their more affluent brothers are learning quickly and enthusiastically.The young men of the next generation will thank you.

Yesterday, the U.S. Senate by a razor thin margin of 50 to 48 voted to take away the privacy rights of Internet users as a favor to the cable and telephone industry. Now the House is planning to take up the legislation immediately next week before people can discover the damage they are about to inflict to consumer privacy online.
Americans have enjoyed a legal right to privacy from your communications provider under Section 222 of the Telecommunications Act for more than twenty years. When Congress made that law, it had a straightforward vision in how it wanted the dominate communications network (at that time the telephone company) to treat your data, recognizing that you are forced to share personal information in order to utilize the service and did not have workable alternatives.
Now Congress has begun to reverse course by eliminating your communication privacy protections in order to open the door for the cable and telephone industry to aggressively monetize your personal information. Proponents of such a drastic course change in law would have you believe that a repeal of the Federal Communications Commission's updated privacy rules for broadband providers would still leave your privacy protections intact. This understates the gravity of what H.J. Res. 86 and S.J. Res 34 may do to consumer privacy. Make no mistake, if Congress decides to codify a repeal of consumer privacy under the Congressional Review Act (as opposed to simply amending the law or the FCC changing the privacy rules again), it can have a serious impact on your legal right to privacy in your communications over broadband.
Proponents of eliminating consumer privacy will go even further and say that it is the FCC's fault that they must harm the legal protections you have enjoyed for more than twenty years by stating it was the agency that overreached its legal authority and acted in a manner that was unconnected with the law. But when Congress actually wrote the law, the charge it gave the FCC seemed fairly clear.
In essence, the FCC has done the job Congress told it to do many years ago. However, the cable and telephone industry have sensed an opportunity to exploit the flurry of repeals Congress has taken up and laid out a series of misleading arguments to convince Congress to proactively do harm to your privacy. They were successful at convincing 50 U.S. Senators to go along with their plan. Now the fight has moved to the House of Representatives.
There is only one way to stop them from winning.
We must speak up and call our elected officials to reject H.J. Res 86 and S.J. Res 34 and preserve our legal rights to consumer online privacy.

Smite Board is a new site I opened for a database style website. The idea is to have all the voice packs, sound themes and 3D Models available for everyone with just a simple website search.
Site also features a VGS Simulator under voice packs area so you can test the voicepacks.
3D Models coming in the future, sorry.
The following skins are meant to arrive in the next patches.
Cu Chulainn was known for converting himself into a rage, berserker or war mode with more strenght. Some also say he converted into a monster. Anyway it seems like Hi-Rez is going through this way with his Berserk Mode.
Stance mode but doesn’t change abilities, boosted stats and different model.
At first I thought it was a teleport like athena, but seeing the cooldown I guess it could work like Loki’s teleport with a small range.
Daji chooses an allied or opposing god and teleports to his position. If she teleports to an opposing god, she performs a melee strike upon her arrival. With this hit the bleeding of torture blades is applied.
It makes you unable to jump and may block aegis usage.
Horrible Burns, Slash and Dash and Passive may apply effects on this Ultimate.
3rd Adventure is called Dungeon. It should feature a Door Siege game mode.

In the wake of the Turkish and rebel-affiliated campaign to capture the northern Aleppo countryside from the Islamic State (IS), termed “Euphrates Shield”, Turkey has put significant effort into providing local government resources and humanitarian assistance. The most ambitious of these efforts was the creation of a new police force from scratch, with a goal of creating security and stability for the civilians of north Aleppo.1.“Police deployed in Syria’s Jarablus after liberation” : Yeni Safak The police have been given a difficult task in serving the people of north Aleppo. complicated by local rebel groups contributing to conflict and lawlessness.
Following the FSP’s arrival in Jarabulus, the project was expanded to other rebel-controlled areas of the northern Aleppo countryside. Azaz was the next town police were deployed to, with 1,300 officers being sent there in late February of 2017. Beyond Azaz, this new group was responsible for policing in several nearby locations including, Mare, Suran, Akhtarin, and al-Rai. The final location that police were deployed was al-Bab, as this was the largest town captured during Operation Euphrates Shield with a population of 63,000 before the war.5.Syrian General Census information As such, al-Bab received the largest number of police, with 2,000 being deployed there.6.“Security ensured in areas liberated by Turkey-backed FSA” : Daily Sabah Like in Jarabulus, these police were all trained in Turkey. However, unlike in Jarabulus, most of the police for Azaz and al-Bab were recruited from local populations in north Aleppo, though there were still recruits from refugee camps and rebel fighters.7.“Free Syrian Army getting backup from Turkish-trained police”: al-Monitor These locations became the main operational hubs for the FSP in northern Aleppo. The stated intention was for the police to operate in larger urban areas, while rebel groups would continue to have control in smaller villages and rural locations.8.Stein, Aaron, Abouzahr, Hossam, Komar, Rao : “Post-Conflict Stabilization: Turkey and the end of Operation Euphrates Shield” : Atlantic Council However, in practice this was difficult to implement, with several rebel groups reluctant to give up their authority and control in urban areas.
The work carried out by the FSP to achieve their goals of establishing stability and security in north Aleppo varies greatly, and general tasks include standard policing operations such as searching for missing people, as well as more unique tasks like rehousing lions. The average day-to-day work for a regular police officer includes manning checkpoints, carrying out searches, going on patrol, guarding buildings, and, of course, responding to reported crimes.9.“Hundreds of police trained by Turkey start work in northern Syria” : Reuters Crimes committed in Northern Aleppo vary, and range from opportunist thefts and muggings to more organized crimes such as systematic thefts as well as drug producing and smuggling. According to al-Rai police officer Major Firas Sheikh Muhammad, the police there deal with about 20-25 incidents a day.10.“Security ensured in areas liberated by Turkey-backed FSA” : Daily Sabah However, Al Rai is one of the smallest towns patrolled by the FSP, and places like Azaz, al-Bab, and Jarabulus will experience significantly more criminal activity. To assist in managing the variety of work they are required to do, the police are split into several different sections. This includes dedicated traffic police, a rapid response force, special forces, a drug force, and counter-terrorism police. Officers in many of those sections will receive extra training to ensure they are best suited for their role.
Despite the difficulty of their tasks, it is undeniable that progress has been made by the FSP. Simply having a professional police force with training on how to deal with these situations is a significant improvement over the previous security situation of multiple rebel groups and IS’s particular brand of ‘justice’. An argument can be made that part of the problem with ongoing crime in northern Aleppo is that the police are still new, and have not settled into their role. The Azaz police chief expressed this same sentiment, while a local resident in Jarabulus stated, “It will take some time but the police can improve the security situation.”26.“Post-ISIS Governance in Jarablus: A Turkish-led strategy” : Haid Haid, Chatham House Their work has undeniably brought increased stability and security to north Aleppo, but moving forward there are significant challenges they must still overcome.
This is the first part of a two-part article on the Free Syria Police in rebel-controlled northern Syria. The second part can be read here.

No matter how brainy, ambitious and gifted you are, if you lack the willpower to get things done it’s difficult to achieve success. Before you give up on yourself, understand it’s natural to procrastinate. Everybody does it – some more than others.
To help you stop procrastinating and to get things done, we compiled a list of our favorite life hacks for slaying the procrastination monster.
Don’t overthink a project or task before you get started on it. If you dwell on it, no action will be taken – hence paralysis. Planning projects is important, but if you get stuck in the planning phase before you have every unknown answered, it’s impossible to move forward. Set a time limit for project planning and just get going. Answers will become apparent and blockages will be resolved as time passes.
Have you ever heard the quote by Voltaire, “Don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good?” If you fall into the trap of failing to get started on a project because you have the fear that it won’t be perfect, you’ll never get moving. I always remind myself, especially in creative endeavors, that perfection is subjective. My perception of perfect is completely different than your perception of perfect. Let go of your fear and move forward. Forget perfection and focus on progress.
Sometimes we procrastinate on starting a project because we think we have a long time to do it. Have you ever heard of Parkinson’s Law? Cyril Parkinson, a British historian, identified this scientific law in 1955. Essentially, it identifies that work expands to fill the time available for its completion. For example, if you give yourself a week to write an essay it will essentially take the entire week instead of a more appropriate time period, such as a few hours.
You can beat procrastination by setting a deadline for all your tasks and by determining the appropriate amount of time to complete them. Set aside the proper amount of time for your tasks at hand and stick to the schedule. Schedule these projects and tasks on your calendar or place them in a to-do list with an appropriate time limit.
Often times we procrastinate on tasks because we don’t believe they have any value. If your tasks aren’t aligned to your goals in work and life then it’s difficult to get motivated to get started. Examine the value of the task. For example, perhaps you’re on the high school football team and you’re focused on becoming a professional football player. In your situation, studying for your Algebra exam might seem like a low priority; however, passing grades are required to stay on the team. Focus on the value of good grades to get started and stay motivated.
In work and life there’s always tasks and chores that we find mundane. It’s just a fact of life. Whether it’s doing laundry, working out, creating your weekly status report or making dinner – there’s always tasks that you can’t escape. Of course, many of us tend to procrastinate on these humdrum tasks.
Breaking chores and tasks into smaller chunks is a great way to tame the procrastination beast. The task or chore doesn’t seem as daunting if you break it down. For example, don’t create your weekly status report one hour before it’s due on Friday afternoon. During the week, add your accomplishments to the status report as you complete them. This way, you can reward yourself with a less stressful Friday afternoon at the office, and also make it home on time.
When I’ve given into procrastination, a trick that I personally use to get back on track is to shift my schedule and complete daunting tasks late at night or early in the morning when everyone else is sleeping. This way, I’m completely uninterrupted by phone calls, barking dogs, email, meetings or other distractions. This strategy helps me to laser focus on the task and finish it well before the deadline. I recommend using this strategy sparingly because lack of sleep can be a significant deterrent to getting things done.
Sometimes it’s difficult to control impulses or urges to do something more entertaining than the tasks we know we need to do. For example, how often do you find yourself watching videos, playing games or reading Twitter posts instead of getting started on an important project or task?
WebMD explains that some of us tend to give into impulses easier than others due to the coordination between the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and the right orbitofrontal cortex. Furthermore, studies concluded that teenagers with less volume in the right orbitofrontal cortex might be more susceptible to lack of impulse control, such as alcohol abuse. The same article explains that it’s never too late to improve impulse control. Marc N. Potenza, MD recommends that you give yourself a small, healthy reward that will lead to a bigger payoff later when you don’t give into your impulses.
If you’re prone to procrastination, creating a to-do list should be automatic as brushing your teeth every day. Working a to-do list into your daily routine can be key to getting things done. I recommend that you create your to-do list the night before so you’re ready to get started each morning without delay. A daily to-do list usually consists of approximately three to five tasks to complete every day. Immediately start with the most difficult task on your list. This way, you’re working on the task that requires the most energy when you’re fresh.
Our starter productivity app, My.Agenda, is a great way to get started with making a daily to-do list in a digital format with an iPhone or iPad. You can find it for .99 cents at the Apple App Store.

Even as the Trump administration seeks to amend its policy of forcibly separating children from parents illegally crossing the U.S. border, the State Department on Thursday released its annual report on global human trafficking that highlighted the dangers of putting children in government-run facilities.
While Secretary of State Mike Pompeo in remarks Thursday trumpeted U.S. leadership in combating global human trafficking, the report underscored the risks to the well-being of children held in government facilities.
“Children in institutional care, including government-run facilities, can be easy targets for traffickers. Even at their best, residential institutions are unable to meet a child’s need for emotional support that is typically received from family members or consistent caretakers with whom the child can develop an attachment,” the report reads.
Experts and advocacy groups say the United States should heed its own advice.
At the unveiling ceremony of the “2018 Trafficking in Persons Report” at the State Department on Thursday, Pompeo touted progress in combating human trafficking around the world. Fourteen African countries out of the 48 included in the report received upgrades in recognition of their efforts to counter trafficking. Overall, 29 countries were upgraded in the report’s rankings, while 20 were downgraded.
That message would carry more weight, advocacy groups and experts say, if the Trump administration itself followed the report’s suggestions on the southern border.
The report’s credibility “must first and foremost be grounded in the integrity of the government issuing the report,” said Melysa Sperber, an expert on human trafficking issues with Humanity United, a group that campaigns on the issue.
President Donald Trump has yet to appoint the top State Department official who oversees human trafficking issues, the ambassador-at-large to the Office to Monitor and Combat Trafficking in Persons.
Meanwhile, Congress let authorization for key legislation to combat human trafficking expire last year — though four bills are currently circulating in both the House and Senate to change that.
Sperber said her counterparts in other countries are privately expressing “deep concerns” about how U.S. immigration policies could perpetuate human trafficking and undercut its moral high ground.
The State Department’s trafficking report highlighted the ways in which breaking up families can actually make human trafficking easier.
“Children are especially vulnerable when traffickers recognize and take advantage of this need for emotional bonding stemming from the absence of stable parental figures. In addition, the rigid schedules and social isolation of residential institutions offer traffickers a tactical advantage, as they can coerce children to leave and find ways to exploit them,” the report reads.
Experts say human trafficking flourishes most in legal gray zones, including in the United States.
A recent report by the Polaris Project, a research and advocacy organization that monitors human trafficking, found that there were some 800 victims of human trafficking who worked in the United States under temporary work visas, a visa program administered in part by the State Department.
“There are definitely ways in which our visa system enables traffickers to exploit vulnerable individuals and vulnerable communities … particularly with labor recruiters,” Sperber said.
Another study, released in 2014 by the Urban Institute and Northeastern University, examined 122 U.S. cases of labor trafficking between 2000 and 2012. Of those, the vast majority were in the United States on a work visa, recruited under a guest worker program. Fourteen percent would eventually be arrested and charged with crimes, mostly immigration violations.
The administration’s zero tolerance approach to immigration violations is ironically making it harder for victims of human trafficking.
Colleen Owens, one of the authors of the 2014 study, said victims of trafficking are increasingly reluctant to file applications for a special type of visa — known as a T visa — for victims of trafficking that allows them to work and access benefits in the United States.

No, it’s not just Judy! Gay men love not only the MGM film but other stories set in Oz—the original books, more recent books with Oz themes and settings, and stage and screen productions like The Wiz. In Friends of Dorothy, based on interviews with more than one hundred gay Oz fans, Dee Michel explains the enduring appeal of Oz for gay men and boys. Interviewees include Gregory Maguire (Wicked), Robert Sabuda (the pop-up Wizard of Oz), and William Mann (Kate: The Woman Who Was Hepburn). The appeal of Oz for gay fans such as Clive Barker, Gore Vidal, and Greg Louganis is analyzed as well. The book also tackles the taboo topic of gay boys, examining their feelings about escaping to Oz, the characters they identify with, and the psychological and spiritual uses they make of stories set in Oz. The many voices in Friends of Dorothy, along with extensive research and analysis, provide a richly layered look at the allure of Oz, with insights into gay culture, gay psychology, and gay folklore.

Find the right key to unlock the door! Throw away the keys you don't want. Did you accidentally throw away the key you need? Gotta keep trying them all!
Use the WASD keys to move around, the mouse to look, and click to grab stuff!
So simple but so fun. Happy to have played it!
Why is the title "You Have 293 Keys" but in the image for the game it says "YOU HAVE 239 KEYS"?!?!
This was a short and simple, but oddly amusing game that reminded me I like to collect things. Maybe a prequel could be made someday where you're going around piling all the keys up, heh. Good job on this.
Hi, I just wanted to let you know that I played your game and I made a video of it, hope that's okay. I found this game very frustrating. But it's a pretty cool concept.
Thanks for the game! It actually drove me into insanity and to become sick! But love the game!
This game truly did test my patience but it was also a great way for me to unwind and just have a chat with my audience. Great game!
I beat the game with 6 keys gg.
Here's my lets play! (I'm so glad there wasn't levels, and you walked down to another closed door that required you to find another key!

I tried my hand at SPEEDRUNNING 293 KEYS!

Nellie Parker Spaulding (August 4, 1870 – June 18, 1945) was an American silent film actress who appeared in at least 37 films between 1915 and 1925.
Born in Machias, Maine, she was 45 years old when she obtained her first film part, as 'Aunt Sally' in "The Flying Twins" (1915). Originally billed as 'Eleanor Spaulding', she was using the more informal 'Nellie' by 1918. She most often played mothers, aunts, or older women, such as "Mrs. Peniston" in the first filmed version of Edith Wharton's "The House of Mirth" (1918). Spaulding worked for various production companies, but her last role (in 1925) was in an MGM picture.

Mike Pence “made it clear” to the Republican National Committee that he was willing to take Trump’s place as the GOP candidate for president in the aftermath of the Access Hollywood tape in October 2016.
Trump’s phone calls to his running mate reportedly went unreturned, and anonymous quotes began appearing in news stories describing Pence as “beside himself” over the revelation. … It’s been reported that Pence sent Trump a letter saying he needed time to decide whether he could stay with the campaign. But in fact, according to several Republicans familiar with the situation, he wasn’t just thinking about dropping out—he was contemplating a coup.
According to the article, as many in the GOP were scheming to force or buy Trump out, they were talking about a Mike Pence-Condoleezza Rice ticket. Coppins describes a meeting in which Trump asked Reince Priebus his opinion about the damage the tape had done to his candidacy. Priebus reportedly told Trump he should drop out.
Pence’s career as it is presented in the piece compels readers to try to pick apart the relationship between the vice president’s religiosity and ambition—Coppins at the end calls the latter “radioactive”—but The Atlantic article contends that Pence’s brief contemplation of rebellion was not purely political.

On Monday, 26 January, CMS installed one of the final pieces in its complex puzzle: the new Pixel Luminosity Telescope. This latest addition will augment the experiment's luminosity measurements, recording the bunch-by-bunch luminosity at the CMS collision point and delivering high-precision measurements of the integrated luminosity.
Installing the PLT in the heart of the CMS experiment.
No matter the analysis, there's one factor that every experimentalist needs to know perfectly: the luminosity. Its error bars can make or break a result, so its high precision measurement is vital for success. With this in mind, the CMS collaboration tasked the BRIL (Beam Radiation Instrumentation and Luminosity) project with developing a new detector to record luminosity for Run 2. Working with experimentalists from across the CMS collaboration and CERN, BRIL designed, created and installed the small - but mighty - Pixel Luminosity Telescope (PLT).
"During Run 1, our primary online luminosity measurements came from the forward hadron calorimeter, which we compared to the offline luminosity measurement using the pixel detector," says Anne Dabrowski, BRIL deputy project leader and technical coordinator (CERN). "But as we move to higher and higher luminosities and pile-ups in Run 2, extracting the luminosity gets harder to do." That's where the PLT comes in. Designed with the new LHC Run 2 in mind, the PLT uses radiation-hard CMS pixel sensors to provide near-instantaneous readings of the per-bunch luminosity - thus helping LHC operators provide the maximum useful luminosity to CMS. The PLT is unconnected to the CMS trigger and reads out at 40 MHz (every 25 ns) with no dead-time.
The BRIL team includes collaborators from CERN, Germany, New Zealand, the USA, Italy and Russia.
Research and development on the PLT began ten years ago, with diamonds first considered for the pixel telescope planes. A PLT prototype was even installed along the LHC beam line during Run 1. "Diamond sensors would have been an excellent choice, as they do not need to be run at low temperatures to have an acceptable radiation damage signal loss," says David Stickland, BRIL project leader (Princeton University). However - while the potential for a diamond PLT remains - the prototype results led the team to use a more tested and reliable material for Run 2: silicon.
However, this practical decision would create new issues for the BRIL team to resolve: "Suddenly, heat was a real concern," explains Anne. "If we wanted to get a good signal out of silicon sensors, we had to bring the telescopes down in temperature." With only 18 months to go until installation, the BRIL team had to go back to the drawing board to try and fit a cooling structure into an already-constrained space.
"We were successful thanks to the ingenuity of the CMS engineering integration office and PH-DT engineers, in particular Robert Loos,” says David. “Rob designed an extraordinary 3D-printed cooling structure using a titanium alloy, using the 'selective laser melting (SLM)’ technique in order to 'grow' the cooling structure we needed." Despite the internal diameter of the cooling channels being less than 3 mm, the cooling structure can make right-angle turns at the drop of a dime and withstand pressure up to 15 bar. "It's tremendously strong, light and compact. I don't know how it could have been made without this technique," David adds.
