Updated 4th November, 08:33 AM: One developer who wished to remain anonymous got in touch with us to say:
"On September 1st 2016, Apple announced that all-kinds of apps should be friendly to iOS 10. My first iOS app was launched in 2011, since then a lot has changed.On the one hand, it's cool for users. The App Store has more than 2,000,000 apps and games and when you're buying a new iPhone or upgrading to the latest iOS version you know everything will work perfectly.On the other hand it's hell for developers. Every year, every big iOS update you should check all your apps and games and care about their operation. If Apple will update their SDK you should fix all your bugs and fully remaster your code. But what if you lose the project from your hard drive or cloud? It will be the end.But I am sure it's worth. Apple keeps pace with the times and the App Store is the most profitable (financially) mobile store for apps and games. Following Apple Guidelines is the fee."

Bad news developers, if you haven't updated your game in a while Apple's going to remove it from the App Store - even if it isn't broken.

Apple is confronting developers about all sorts of issues with their games that need to be fixed to comply with their policy – if they don't, the game gets taken down, simple as that. Games also have to be updated frequently, making them more iOS 10-friendly and less available to those with older devices.

So far we've seen a couple of developers taking a stand, such as Josef Ortner. He's already accepted that his game Expander will be removed in 30 days. When someone asked him why it was getting removed he stated, "I won't update it so Apple will kick it."

#Expander will be gone from the ios appstore in 30 days. time enough to grab a piece of gaming history ;) https://t.co/LhToFI04ai— Josef Ortner (@Iossif) November 2, 2016 Another example comes from Nathalie Lawhead's blog post yesterday. "Yesterday I got another message stating: "Your app, Offender 2 (World War B: War on Rabbits), does not comply with the App Review Guidelines". Basically the App will be removed if I don’t comply. This looks like it’s going to happen to all my games, because of policy changes."

Nathalie then goes into great detail explaining why she's decided not to adhere to the most recent guidelines using her experience as an reference. "Long story short, after many rejections and working those 'problems' out of my game, it got accepted. When I looked at the end result, I was very unhappy with how the game ended up. This was not MY game anymore. It was hacked apart, and roughly sewn back together again, just to fit into some Orwellian marketplace."

We'll update this page a little later with comments and concerns from the industry in response to Apple's most recent policy changes.

The Benefit of the Industrial Polymers
The urethane products are considered to be the commonly known industrial polymers that have been in use for a very long period of time since they are considered to be very efficient whet they are put under use. The Industrial Polymers Corporation is mainly specialized in making urethane products which are very easy to use when it comes to molding as well as casting of various applications. The urethane products mainly transforms into molds of rubber or plastics when they are mixed with other substances. Most of the products which are provided by the industrial polymers are entirely made of volatile organic compounds, which are more durable and long lasting. Industrial polymers is mainly engaged in supplying the reinforcements of fiberglass to most of the local abrasives industries.
Besides cutting fiber glass, they are also engaged in cutting carbon fiber as well as materials which are considered corrugated. As a result, some of these polymers may be used in the automotive industries and the rest of the industries that are committed to build aero planes. They also market a broadened variety of phenolic which is in form of powder in addition to the kind of phenolic that has been modified in most industries and companies which are engaged in using materials which are exposed to high friction.
Most of the industrial polymers are compounds which are mainly used in the production of plastics and industrial materials. classification of the industrial polymers is always dependent on whether the polymers have been formed through the chain reactions of the industrial polymers or whether they have been formed through the steps that involve growth. When plastic is being put under consideration, the polymers that are formed from it are divided based on their solubility on some of the selected solvents. Some of them classified on whether they have the ability to be softened by heat, while the next division is on the plastics that are not soluble, and which cannot be softened through heating unless they are first decomposed by heat. In addition, there are a number of ways through which the polymers may be classified, and this is dependent on the fact that they are made through the modified polymers or if they are made from the synthetic polymers.
In the classification of the industrial polymers, they are either carbon chain or the heterochain polymers. In carbon chain polymers, the chains are formed through linking the available carbon atoms. Oxygen, chlorine, fluorine and other elements have an ability to lead to a hetero chain if they are linked in the main chain. Olefins are some of the complex industrial polymers which are considered to form very strong substances since they have may carbon atoms which are bonded together through the strong double bonds.

Protest March Against Flag Attracts 600
In S. Carolina
By The New York Times
HARLESTON, S.C., April 2 -- More than 600 South Carolinians began a five-day protest march to the state capitol in Columbia today
to press legislators to remove the Confederate battle flag from the Statehouse dome.
Former Gov. John West, 78, a state lawmaker when the flag was raised by the all-white General Assembly in 1962, was at the front of the procession, where marchers carried the South Carolina state flag, and chanted, "One state, one flag."
West, a Democrat and governor from 1971 to 1975, had led an effort to get lawmakers who raised the Confederate battle flag to ask for its removal.
"As I have had to say publicly, somewhat to my embarrassment, in hindsight one of the mistakes I made as governor is not taking it down," he said. "It was not an issue then. Had it been an issue, I would like to think I would have taken
The battle over the Confederate battle flag has become the center of political and racial debate here, drawing the ire of black groups and becoming an issue in the presidential primary in February when the Republican candidates, Gov. George W. Bush of
Texas and Senator John McCain of Arizona, were repeatedly asked to take a stand on the issue.
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has called for a tourism boycott of the state, saying the Confederate battle flag above the Statehouse is a racist emblem. James Gallman, the president of the South Carolina chapter of the
N.A.A.C.P, said the march was important because it showed that people of influence supported taking the flag down, and that it was not only a black issue because a majority of the marchers were white.
Flag defenders say it is a symbol of Southern heritage and honors Confederate war dead.
Most South Carolinians, surveys show, want the flag removed.
"Take it down," chanted the demonstrators, led by Mayor Joseph P. Riley Jr. of Charleston, a Democrat, who organized the 120-mile "Get in Step" march. "The purpose is to say the people of South Carolina are in step, and we want
the Legislature to get in step with the people of South Carolina," said the mayor, carrying the blue state flag with its white palmetto tree and crescent as he led marchers into the street.
Riley said the state risked ruining its reputation if the Confederate battle flag did not come down. "A substantial majority of South Carolinians, African-American and white, believe the flag should not be above the Statehouse," he said.
Riley said that he organized the march "to demonstrate what you see here -- a cross-section of South Carolinians."
They will walk during daylight and plan to arrive in Columbia for a rally on Thursday, when flag supporters have also scheduled a rally.
Sharon Brown, who had her 16-month-old son Davron with her, said: "The flag to me is like the swastika is to the Jews. It's that offensive to me. If it's that important to others, let them put it in their homes."
Only state lawmakers can remove the flag from the dome, and several plans are under consideration. Organizers of the march say it should be moved to another place of honor.
People gathered at Marion Square in Charleston for the march this afternoon as a small plane circled overhead towing a banner that said, "Keep it flying, dump Riley."
A lone flag supporter stood at the edge of the square with a Confederate battle flag over the edge of his shoulder. The man, Carter Sabo of Charleston, said the flag "reminds me of oak trees and moss, family and brave men." He stood briefly
by Sandra and Tommie Gordon, an African-American couple from Maldin, and as they parted Ms. Gordon gave Sabo a hug.

DALLAS — It’s been two and a half years since COVID-19 shut down the country, and it’s still in the front of many Americans’ lives.
But, that may be changing even as cases have surged.
“It’s going to be with us for the long-term like flu is with us for the long-term,” said Dr. James McDeavitt, the vice president and dean of clinical affairs at Baylor College of Medicine.
McDeavitt believes COVID is moving into a new endemic stage and may already be there. With at-home testing results rarely, if ever, being reported to health officials, he’s looking at wastewater surveillance which is now set up across the country as well as hospitalizations as a gauge of spread.
Both have risen but lately leveled off.
“The case rate numbers are incredibly unreliable now,” McDeavitt said. “We really haven’t seen the death rate increase and we haven’t seen hospitalizations increase to the same extent.”
He says 99% of ICU COVID patients at the hospital are unvaccinated. The Dallas-Fort Worth Hospital Council estimated around 85% of COVID patients overall are unvaccinated. Treatments like Paxlovid are effective and widely available, but the disease likely isn’t going away.
“I think for the foreseeable future, we’re going to be chasing it to a degree,” McDeavitt said.
That doesn’t mean it has to dominate life, though. Flu kills between 20,000 and 80,000 Americans a year. McDeavitt expects COVID to settle in around 100,000 deaths per year and remain a top-ten cause of death in the country.
“It’s going to be a significant public health problem for some time to come,” he said. “We need to still think about the most vulnerable in our populations and help to protect them.”
For the first time since the first COVID case was reported, a school year begins with every student and teacher able to be vaccinated, though many still aren’t.
“I’m very concerned the way this new variant, the BA.5, continues to spread that once kids get back and cluster in school, we’re going to see another increase,” Dr. David Winter at Baylor Scott & White said. “Only half of kids are vaccinated so I think parents should consider that.”
The current TEA guidance is for kids with symptoms must wait at least five days since they started, have symptoms improving and be fever free. Students who test positive but don’t have symptoms must wait five days since the positive test.
“I think we’ve moved into a phase of the pandemic where this is largely about managing individual risk,” McDeavitt said. “For sort of the rank and file people, get vaccinated, be careful, if you get sick, don’t expose other people.”
The current variant is more contagious and less severe, but there’s no promise that won’t change in the future.
Two and a half years later, COVID still dictates life, but before long, it’ll become just another part of it.

A Kosovan man named Ardit Ferizi has been arrested in Malaysia for suspected hacking of US military databases comprising of personal information of 1,351 officers and government employees.
Ferizi is also accused of handing over this sensitive information to the so-called Islamic State (IS, previously ISIS/ISIL) group.
According to the US Department of Justice, the 20-year old Ferizi was popular in hacking circles as “Th3Dir3ctory” and happens to be the leader of Kosova Hacker’s Security (KHS).
The KHS was also behind the hacking of the official website of US National Weather Service provider (US Weather.Gov) in 2012.
He was arrested by Malaysia police on charges of transferring the names, phone numbers, locations, passwords and email IDs of federal and military employees to Islamic State’s hacker Junaid Hussain.
This exchange of info occurred between June and August this year. The accused will be facing charges under the Terrorist Act and will be extradited to the US.
Malaysian Police told Reuters that,
“Early investigation found the suspect communicated with right-hand man…of IS terrorist group in Syria to hack a few servers containing information and details of US security personnel and team. The details were then transferred to the operation unit of the IS group for further action.”
John Carlin, the Assistant Attorney General for National Security, described Ferizi as a “terrorist hacker.” Carlin believes that this is the first of its kind case, according to the document released by the Department of Justice.
The US Department of Justice announced that the accused could receive a maximum term of 35 years in prison if convicted.
JUNAID HUSSAIN THE BRITISH BORN ISIS HACKER:
On 27th August 2015, a British national and top hacker for ISIS Junaid Hussain aka TriCk was killed in a drone strike in Syria. Junaid was known as the mastermind behind every high-profile cyber attack carried out by Cyber Caliphate hacking group.
However, it is unclear if the targeted operation against top British ministers was conducted after or before his death.
ISIS HOVERING CYBER-ATTACKS, WARNING ‘ELECTRONIC WAR’ ON US, EUROPE:
The hackers also threatened to monitor electronic devices and communications of Americans and Europeans, they termed it as the start of a new electronic war in the video.
HIGH-PROFILE HACKS BY PRO-ISIS HACKERS:
In April 2015, The pro-ISIS hacking group “CyberCaliphate” targeted and took control of BBC News transmission and TV5Monde’s Paris headquarters’ computer systems and posted a pro-ISIS message on the channel’s social media accounts.
— Hackread.com (@HackRead) June 11, 2015
The hackers also blacked out the company’s global TV channels for a few hours. However, French investigating team claimed it could be Russian hackers behind the hacking of both TV stations posing as ISIS hackers.

We are the world’s largest democracy, one of the most celebrated sturdily projected facts, which need not be deny. We are a country developing as a ratio of around 9% as projected by the business experts. We are the country which is the second best preferred site of investment in the eyes of the business tycoons and multinationals of the world. We are now a country which is the lullaby of the world’s richest countries and their multinational companies. We enjoy it. Celebrate it. We love to be Indian. We feel proud when someone mentions (an NRI) mentions that now they don’t have to tell the people of the host country that what
The national highway no. 8 which leads the wheels to the Gulabi Nagari of the country called Jaipur, shows us the symptoms of the development. Skyscraper buildings, with dark glasses are the common sight on the highway for more than 7-8 kilometres. The national capital is expanding day by day. It is reaching the soil of Rajasthan after crossing the neighbour state Haryana. It’s all evident or made evident in actuality by the Indian nation state. The reality of the fact can’t be undone.
But the nation is witnessing yet another hard fact. A cast called Gujjar of the same region had stopped the normal routine life of the area for last few days. And it is no the first time they have done so. They are doing it in the continuation of their last struggle and they seem more determined this time rather than the last one. They have learnt lessons from the earlier struggle and they are more consolidated and gritty this time. The lifeline of Indian Passengers the Indian Railway has failed to resume its services even after almost one week has crossed.
The other route, the road route is also under threat during the call of bandh and all.
Now look at their demands. The Gujjars are demanding the status of ST for them. The average Indians must be thinking that this is a complete bullshit. The movement to get the status of ST means they want to demote themselves in the social hierarchy. What, it means, do the status of SC/ST has climbed the ladder of social strata. Or do the SC/ST has have atleast a kind of respect in the society. Do they no more in that vulnerable situation like their past? Are they better off? No, the answer should be loud and clear. The SC/ST is still living in mess. They are still at the bottom of the social hierarchy. Neither, the society has overlooked their earlier view about them. The incidents of Dalit killings happening in Haryana and Rajasthan on a regular basis would convey us the ground realities. Then, obviously the reason is to get the privilege SC/ST has been given by the Indian constitution to get over from the vulnerable condition they have to live with.
Now, look at the fact again, Haryana is the most privileged state of

A divided Brazil came to a standstill amid nationwide protests yesterday as the country's congress was poised to vote through the impeachment of president Dilma Rousseff.
All eyes were on the national congress in Brasília where its 513 members were to be balloted over a motion to remove the hugely unpopular Ms Rousseff for allegedly manipulating government accounts.
It was widely expected that the opposition would reach the 342 votes necessary in order to move the petition on to the senate.
Members were set to vote one by one on a pivotal day for the president and the future of the Leftist Worker’s Party, which has led the country for 14 years.
Protests both for and against the move took place in cities nationwide. Outside the lower house, crowds for both sides swelled on the capital’s esplanade, divided by a steel barrier and heavy police presence amid fears of clashes.
The atmosphere in both camps ahead of the vote was apprehensive but peaceful. Hip-hop artists performed at the anti-impeachment base outside Brasília’s World Cup stadium as union leaders gave security briefings to the thousands who had been camping out.
Social movement organisers, who have accused the opposition of staging a “coup” to bring down Ms Rousseff, advised government supporters not to get drawn into confrontations with the pro-impeachment movement and avoid tensions spilling over.
Dalva Rossi, 64, a retired teacher travelled from the state of Paraná to join the anti-impeachment camp in Brasília, which has been growing all week to march on congress as the vote begins.
“If it depends on us, it will be peaceful,” she said. “This episode is so important. We don’t want another dictatorship.”
Buses brought activists from all over Brazil including indigenous groups.
Valdemar Ferreira de Santos, 68, of the Xakriabá people, said: “The problem that’s happening is affecting all of us, the indigenous, the quilombos.
"The biggest worry is if impeachment happens, the indigenous will increasingly lose their rights.”
Crowds of pro-impeachment protesters also began gathering hours before the vote, dressed in the green and yellow of the Brazilian flag. Manoel Neto, 55, who flew to the capital from Salvador, Bahia, said: “The Brazilian population support impeachment. It’s not the solution to everything but it’s a step. We want to see Brazil return to growth.”
Euler Rodrigues, 43, a lawyer from Brasília, added: “It’s not a coup. It’s very similar to a coup but she needs to go. “Her replacement is not who the public want to take over but she has to go first.”
“It’s pretty hard to explain to normal people the grounds on which they’re trying to impeach her,” said Mathieu Turgeon, a political scientist at the University of Brasília whose work is supported by the British Council’s Newton Fund.
“Instead, what I think it happening is they’re just attaching corruption to her government and that’s what driving part of public opinion, making people so angry.

As I sit here watching my four-year-old daughter color, weaving her purple crayon inside the lines as carefully as she can, I feel a deep and unwavering love. It’s a love I don’t think I could ever describe in words.
I laugh in spite of myself.
I never wanted to be a mother, and yet, here I am: mothering. Me, of all people, cultivating a mother-daughter relationship I never once dreamt about having when I was a kid. Teaching, molding, listening, scolding, protecting, loving, and cherishing my daughter in a way I never thought I was capable of doing.
This is how I got here.
I grew up in what seemed to me like a fairly average, middle-class household. I had two brothers and a mother and father who, for better or worse, raised us together, despite the myriad ups and downs they endured throughout their marriage. My mother was hit with a severe bout of postpartum depression after my twin brother and I were born. Back in the seventies, doctors lacked both compassion and knowledge when it came to postpartum depression. My mother was given medication that didn’t work and ended up in a mental hospital where shock treatment was deemed the only “logical” fix. When she emerged a few months later, she wasn’t the same, and I don’t think she ever fully recovered. She’s been battling depression ever since, as well as a host of other physical ailments that seemed to come like dominoes after that hospital stay: tiredness, fatigue, joint pain, anxiety, arthritis, and fibromyalgia.
As a young kid, I didn’t know any of this. I just assumed my mother was a certain way, that I was another, and that the two never really mixed. We had little in common from the get-go. She told me that when I came wiggling out of her womb after my twin brother, she screamed with glee because she had finally gotten her daughter, the daughter she had always wanted.
The problem: I was a daughter, sure. But I wasn’t the daughter my mother had envisioned.
Growing up, my mother dreamt of a daughter with whom she would bond instantly. That bond would continue to grow throughout their lives. They would go shopping together, share secrets, and talk about boys. She’d braid this daughter’s hair, show her how to put on makeup, and discuss cheerleading routines while they painted each other’s nails. Someday, that daughter would get married to some handsome guy and have children of her own.

According to Match.com’s fourth annual study on singles, $82 billion is spent annually on dating-related activities.
Match.com recently released findings from its annual Singles in America study that illustrates the ways in which singles of all ages are viewing first dates, modern relationships, traditional beliefs on sex and more. Dr. Helen Fisher notes that “both sexes are entering new relationships slowly with the aim to make them last.” Fifty-one percent of singles said they imagine a future together while on their first date. Surprisingly (at least for me) 56 percent of these respondents were men. She says, “Today’s singles are forging new patterns of courtship and marriage in deeply humane and exciting ways.”
Dollar dollar bills
The survey also examined the significant impact of singles on the economy and how much they spend on their dating lives. The conclusion: Dating is expensive. Singles spend nearly $61.53 per month on dating-related activities, totaling about $739 per year. With 111 million singles in the U.S., we’re looking at $82 billion a year. Meeting online (cha-ching to sign up) was the number one way singles met their last first date, second to meeting through a friend.
Back when I was dating, I remembered dipping in both JDate and Match.com. Just looking at eligible bachelors cost me close to $40 a month. Add that to my need for new outfits and keeping my situation situated, and the dollar bills just keep on adding up. Men said the top three dating expenses for them include entertainment (such as going to the movies), going out to dinner and personal electronics — you know — to keep up with all the communication happening. Women also sourced going out to dinner and personal electronics as top expenses, but new outfits topped the list. This shows that men and women might be splitting dinners, while men pick up the tabs on entertainment-based activities.
Modern vs. traditional dating
Modern dating and traditional dating show a great variation in the amount of money daters spend. By modern dating, I mean online dating, matchmakers, speed dating, dating apps and dating coaches. The most that some people spend per month is $1,250. This differs greatly from traditional dating that includes going out to bars, enjoying a sports game, religious activities, drinks, tickets and food. This ‘real’ type of dating (as I think it is) can run you close to $3,000 per month (with the average being $55).
All this, and you can be relieved that your orgasms are free, right?

Dr. Andrew C. Fortier, a stalwart figure in the Illinois State Archaeological Survey (ISAS) and the broader Midwest archaeological community, departed on November 6, 2023, leaving behind a legacy of profound contributions and fond memories. Born on January 13, 1947, in Merced, California, Andy's journey into anthropology began at the University of California-Berkeley, where he earned his degree in 1968. His insatiable curiosity led him to the University of Wisconsin-Madison, where he embarked on groundbreaking archaeological research in Bulgaria, culminating in his Ph.D. dissertation on the Early Neolithic Karanovo I-Kremikovtsi complex.
Upon settling in Illinois, Andy became a cornerstone of archaeological endeavors, notably contributing to the I-270 project in the American Bottom. His tenure with the University of Illinois witnessed the evolution of various programs, from the Resource Investigation Program to the Illinois Transportation Archaeological Research Program, eventually culminating in his pivotal role at ISAS and Prairie Research Institute.
"Andy was my first supervisor in the field at the Marge site when I was 18 or 19 years old. Marge was a salvage dig we were doing in Collinsville during one of the coldest winters I can remember. The archaeology consisted of hacking out large chunks of frozen feature fill with ice picks and maddoxes, many of which we broke because of the frozen ground. Andy and the guys all had icicles hanging from their beards and mustaches, but he kept us all going with his jokes, his stories, and his gas. His humor warmed us all in so many ways," recalls Mera Hertel, from the American Bottom Field Station.
Throughout his career, Andy's scholarly pursuits knew no bounds, encompassing a diverse array of topics from the Archaic to Mississippian periods in Illinois, lithic trace element analysis, and the enigmatic realm of coprolites. "He studied Bulgarian Neolithic in his early years in the field, so we had a lot to talk about since my dissertation work involved analysis of Central European (Hungarian, Austrian, and Slovakian) Paleolithic assemblages. It was always interesting to share stories with him about working in Soviet- and post-Soviet-era Eastern and Central Europe. Fortunately for Illinois archaeology, he shifted his focus from Eastern European to Midwest USA archaeology," shares Brian Adams, reminiscing about their shared experiences.
Michael Aiuvalasit reflects, "I only overlapped with Andy a few months before his retirement. Still, he was very encouraging to me, and he graciously passed along reports and papers that he thought (correctly!) I would need. And yes, that included his coprolite studies. Since then, I've come to know him better through reading his publications. I'd say every other month I find myself needing to read another new (to me!) publication with his name on it. Future generations will certainly benefit from the legacy of his research.”
Beyond his academic prowess, Andy was cherished for his wry sense of humor and boundless storytelling. Colleagues fondly recall his anecdotes, which illuminated the camaraderie amidst frozen excavations and the indomitable spirit of archaeological endeavors. "I knew next to nothing about Illinois or midwestern archaeology.,” says Kris Hedman. “He took me on a tour of the American Bottom, introduced me to Cahokia and the surrounding sites, and shared many stories of the I-270 days – long hours, minimal pay, glowing goo bubbling out of the earth, dead dogs, and, of course, the twinkie story. Years later my kids would come to work with me. Ironically, they found my office and lab ‘creepy’, but they LOVED to visit Andy… to ‘tour’ his collections of desiccated flora and fauna, play with the toys that pooped, and hear his stories.”
Wendy French celebrates Andy's idiosyncrasies, from whimsical nativity scenes to confounding football pools, underscoring his irreplaceable presence within the ISAS community. Brent Lansdell pays homage to Andy's enduring legacy, pledging to uphold his commitment to archaeological stewardship, reflecting on the impact of Andy's personality and dedication.
As the curtains fall on a remarkable chapter, Dr. Andrew C. Fortier's indelible imprint on Illinois archaeology endures, a testament to his scholarly acumen, unwavering camaraderie, and irrepressible spirit. Though he has departed, his legacy resonates through the annals of time, inspiring future generations to unravel the mysteries of our shared past.

DogSpin.com publishes over 100 dog friendly hotels in New York City
DogSpin.com has researched and compiled a list of over 100 dog friendly hotels in NYC, with fees, weight restrictions and amenities.
New York, NY (PRUnderground) July 24th, 2013
New York City dog website DogSpin.com has researched and compiled a list of over 100 dog friendly hotels in NYC. The list includes the additional fees, weight restrictions and amenities that these hotels offer.
Travelling to the Big Apple with a pet requires careful planning, as most hotels will not accept dogs, and the ones that do typically have restrictions on the size of the dog, and sometimes exorbitant cleaning fees and deposits.
DogSpin has further broken down the list of hotels by areas of the city (Near Central Park, Near Times Square, etc) as well as by factors such as Affordable Dog Friendly Hotels in New York City and hotels that will allow big dogs over 50 pounds. We even highlight special amenities, from the practical, such as the hotel that actually has a dog park on the premises, to the unusual, such as a hotel that provides dog psychic services.
Once in New York City, tourists can also use DogSpin to find photos of, and location information for, the New York City Dog Runs, as well as veterinarians and pet stores by neighborhood. DogSpin also has some unique and fun activities around the city for you and your dog such as a free cruise on the Staten Island Ferry, a visit to the Chelsea art galleries with your dog, and a listing of some of the best dog-friendly bars in NYC.

I don’t know about you, but it annoys the hell out of me when the foreign press grabs onto the latest high-profile criminal trial, invariably one that involves a hot-button political issue and, preferably, a media-savvy dissident with Western contacts, and suggest that this court case, or the underlying policy debate, is somehow an indictment of China’s entire judicial system.
For example, NPR in the U.S. ran an article a few days ago entitled “Can China’s Legal System Change?” Excellent, thought I, here’s something I can sink my brain into for a few minutes. Perhaps this was a discussion of the recent amendments to the Civil Procedure Law, an analysis of the reforms to China’s death penalty regime, or a report on the latest judicial reform white paper?
I was disappointed to find that the article was not at all about China’s legal system, but really just an extended interview with a certain famous blind dissident who is now in residence at New York University. The interview did cover legal reform, but the discussion was limited to the One Child Policy, thug cops, and the treatment of this dissident’s family. Rule of law and the lack of an independent judiciary in China was mentioned several times but never developed beyond the level of a sound bite. And let’s face it, this guy is not exactly a neutral source of information on the Chinese legal system.
I’m not trying to belittle dissidents, or the media who report on their activities. However, as exciting as these criminal trials, detentions and protests are, this is a big country and there is a lot more going on here. For example, China now boasts the second-largest economy in the world and has a very busy court system that (Breaking News!) contains a civil division. If any of you in the media are unfamiliar with this term, it refers to those cases, such as commercial disputes, that are not criminal trials. Yes, judges often do other things in China besides hear politically-charged criminal cases.
The number of these commercial cases taken to court in China has been rising rapidly for many years. If there was really no rule of law in China, why do you think that all these Chinese folks would be flocking to court to settle their business disputes? Hmm, that’s a tough question.
Let me suggest something that may be a bit surprising to some of you out there. Suppose, just suppose, that these famous cases represent a very small minority of judicial action in China. And now further assume that for decades, China’s courts have been reformed and that judges have gotten better through training and experience. Imagine, if you will, that for the majority of civil cases, if not criminal actions, rule of law is functioning very well, thank you.
Now, before anyone has time for a rebuttal, let me stipulate to a few things. China’s courts are not immune to problems like corruption, local protectionism, political interference and inexperienced judges. My above point is not that these things have been wiped out in China, but rather that they have been minimized to the point where we can say, with a straight face mind you, that they are no longer the rule in most places (and particularly in the large cities on the East Coast).
I’ll further stipulate that China does not, in fact, have a completely independent judiciary and that political interference is common in certain types of cases. Again, my point is that these cases do not represent the vast majority of civil or criminal actions in China, and therefore using them to make a general assertion about rule of law in China is inaccurate and misleading.
C’mon media, give us some nuance once in a while, and lay off the generalizations.

ADDITIONAL NOTES: series finale aired on 2/24/15
DESCRIPTION: (from NBC's press release, December 2014) In the first TV event of the new year, NBC is giving its landmark comedy "Parks and Recreation" a sendoff that will maximize the show's cultural impact. The seventh and final season of this critically-acclaimed and beloved series will begin Tuesday, Jan. 13 with back-to-back episodes (8-9 p.m. ET/PT) and continue with back-to-back episodes each week until the hourlong series finale on Tuesday, Feb. 24 following "The Voice." The return of the series, in fact, will be scheduled to premiere in the afterglow of the Jan. 11 "72nd Annual Golden Globe Awards," co-hosted by Amy Poehler and Tina Fey.


Accompanied by a pianist, 11 violinists in formal evening attire (only two of them men) stood across the stage and bodily engaged with the music as they played. The concert on Oct. 23 at Brooklyn’s Kingsborough Community College by the ensemble Siberian Virtuosi included repertoire from Johann Sebastian Bach to Astor Piazzolla, and so precise was the playing, it sounded at times like one stringed instrument.
According to Leonid Fleishaker, who as president of World Touring LLC manages the group, the ensemble’s performance nearly always brings the audience to its feet at concert’s end and then the musicians accommodate the enthusiastic response with an encore.
Fleishaker notes that the wide range of classical music is just one of the attributes that makes the ensemble from the Sakha Republic (Yakutia) unique. It’s not a chamber orchestra, which is typically smaller than a full orchestra but contains a variety of instruments—Siberian Virtuosi has only two. They don’t sit in front of sheet music—the repertoire is memorized. It’s not a contemporary ensemble—they play mostly traditional pieces, but the arrangements for violin and piano are original.
Founded in 1994, Siberian Virtuosi is led by directors Larisa Gabysheva and Stanislav Afanasenko. The ensemble has garnered many international awards, including an International Festival Competition in St. Petersburg, Russia; “Music Week of Tours” in France; the Grand Prix at a festival in Cremona, Italy, as well as at a festival in Miskolc, Hungary.
In addition to these countries, they have toured Italy, Israel, the United Kingdom, Austria, Portugal, the Ukraine, China, Germany, Croatia, and South Korea. In 2012 they presented 20 concerts in the United States for the first time, Fleishaker explained, before they journeyed to South America for a sold-out series of concerts there. Last December they played at Carnegie Hall, and they are currently in the middle of another North American tour.
Despite their successes, Fleishaker is concerned for the group—at least in the United States. As he explained on Oct. 24, he’s concerned for classical music as a whole.
As a professional violinist turned manager, Fleishaker speaks from close vantage about the inner workings of the professional music world. In the last 5–10 years, he says, interest in classical music has declined in the United States.
One factor contributing to the decline is that the way venues operate has changed. Previously, executive directors of performing arts centers had control of decision making. If they liked a group, they simply would sign up that ensemble as the calendar allowed. These directors have retired or moved on.
Their replacements no longer control the roster of artists appearing in venues. The new directors must submit a proposal to a board, which ultimately makes the decision. Thus, the director’s enthusiasm must be able to sway a group who may not have expertise in the arts, who may only see the bottom dollar, or who may have their own artistic agendas.
And, if the board contains members of the younger generation, who, given changes in education over the years, have little exposure to the fine arts, classical groups may not be seen as a high priority, he said.
In any case, it’s no longer a simple process for classical performing artists to secure performance dates.
This new booking system is not to the advantage of the arts. For one thing, it forces artists to find ever-increasing ways to market themselves as unique entities. For another, if artists don’t find venues, they won’t be able to perform for the public, and if these traditional works are not presented, they will disappear.
Classics: Our Bridges to the Past
“If you don’t present classical ballet, if you don’t see ‘Swan Lake’ being performed, people will forget about it,” Fleishaker said. Once people forget the old works, museums, concerts halls, and venues for the classics will be replaced “by arenas for 50,000 people to see rock-and-roll stars or pop singers.”
This loss, the diminishing access to the classics, is happening very fast, he said. In very short order, we’ve moved, for example, in photography from film to digital photography and now to omnipresent iPhones and apps.
People who haven’t seen this transition, who have only known iPhones, lose perspective. In order to have perspective, you need at least two points of view. By seeing where we were in the past, and seeing the line from the past to the present, we can visualize a trajectory beyond to the future.
This is true of all the classics, he said. Without them, the young cannot compare then and now to gain perspective.
He’s particularly concerned about how growing up without access to the classics will impact the younger generations. For this reason, Fleishaker’s company uses some of the proceeds from paid concerts to support music outreach to elementary schools. He wants youngsters to regain the perspective that past generations always had of knowing their own culture’s past.
“The classics are bridges between the past and the present and should not be burned,” he said.
The Colors of Life
“Why is it important to remember the works of Shakespeare, Tolstoy, Dostoyevsky?” Fleishaker asked.
These are our cultural treasures. “Call me traditional or old-fashioned, but these works make people richer inside. You learn how to explain your thoughts; you can appreciate life.”
Consider that we use a lot of popular music—popular versus classical—as a background to life, he said. We call it elevator music, and we also jog or exercise to music that we don’t pay much attention to.
But classical music grips us, takes us away and engages us. “It lets you imagine; it can make you think, laugh, feel,” he said.
When he listens to Ravel, Debussy, Tchaikovsky, or Beethoven’s “Moonlight Sonata,” he experiences a scene that the composer intended.
Bach, for example, who composed for the church, has a certain intended effect. The “music of Bach always transferred me to a house of God,” Fleishaker said.
The classic arts, he says, allow us to see life through different lenses for each of the artists we are exposed to. Listening to classical music by composers of varying eras and from different countries allows us to understand the way things once were, the way people from different countries see things: “This thought can relate to knowing different languages; the more languages you know, the more times you are a human being.”
In sum, the richness of these perspectives helps us see the colors of life. When you learn about the composers, when you experience in your imagination what they intend for you to experience, “you understand that things around you are not just black and white. Everything we look at has colors. We just need to learn how to interpret them and understand.”
Seeing colors is important for the soul, he said.

Kate Krader (@kkrader on Twitter) is Food & Wine's restaurant editor. When she tells us where to find our culinary heart's desire, we listen up.
It’s already been a big year for bugs. There are the horror movie-style warnings of the cicada invasion that is supposed to hit any minute now. More recently, Eatocracy highlighted a new United Nations report, "Edible Insects: Future Prospects for Food and Feed Security," that tells you everything you need to know about its message in the title.
If you don’t eat insects, you might one day be in the minority. Two billion people worldwide chow down on them, according to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, which sees bugs as a terrific source of viable protein.
Even better, you have lots of choices: It’s estimated that there are 1,900 different insect species to eat. Here, a couple good options to get non-insect eaters started.
Editor’s note: Read this article in Spanish at CNNMéxico.com
Long before Timon and Pumbaa from the Lion King popularized the phrase “Slimy, yet satisfying,” a whole gastronomic culture around insects already existed in Mexico.
About 1 million of the 1.4 million named animal species on Earth are insects, and they have the potential to fight malnutrition around the world, said the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations.
“Wild animals and insects are often the main protein source for people in forest areas,” FAO’s Director-General Jose Graziano da Silva said at the International Conference on Forests for Food Security and Nutrition in Rome, where the organization recently presented their latest report, "Edible insects; Future prospects for food and feed security."
According to the release, “negative perceptions” and “consumer acceptance” are the biggest obstacles to the adoption of insects as viable sources of protein in many Western countries. The organization says that “insect gathering and rearing as minilivestock at the household level or industrial scale can offer important livelihood opportunities for people in both developing and developed countries.”
“The profile of the Mexican insects is very favorable because they have a large amount of protein, there is a major quantity of essential amino acids that we cannot produce in our metabolism, but we need to consume in our meals,” said Julieta Ramos-Elourdy, biologist and researcher at the Institute of Biology of the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM).
You could call this a case of an early bird not wanting to catch the worm.
All high school student Derrick Holt wanted was a quick bite to eat when he purchased a Sausage McMuffin at a McDonald’s in Buckeye, Arizona.
What he says he got was a disgusting surprise, a stomach problem that’s kept him out of school and mixed messages from the restaurant that served him.
According to a recent U.N. report, insects could be a solution to some of the world's food and health problems. They're nutritious, eco-friendly and abundant. Many countries already consider them a staple part of their diets.
So if we're all to start consuming locusts and scorpions, we can start in Southeast Asia for guidance.

Burnt Hills made sure it did not wage an epic battle Saturday.
The SpartansÂ controlled the line of scrimmage and took advantage of a pair of huge mistakes to turn the Section II Class A Super Bowl into a 37-7 rout over Lansingburgh.
The meeting of undefeated squads may have lackedÂ mysteryÂ early in the third quarter, but it does not negate how impressive Burnt Hills (10-0) was in every facetÂ of the game.
The Knights simply never recovered from a fumbleÂ by quarterback Connor GalloÂ midway through the second quarter when it appeared the junior quarterback was about to score a touchdown to cut the Spartans’ lead to 9-6.
Instead of scoring, Gallo lost the football out of the back of the end zone for a touchback.
Give credit to the defensive line of Burnt Hills, especially Paul Skarka, Alex Palkovic and Andrew Draina. Lansingburgh’s trio of Mike Hepp, Kenny Youngs and Chris Sawyer combined to rush for 123 yardsÂ on 30 carries – less than the normal output of one of these running backs in a game.
Matt Shell and his staff put together an impressive game plan and the Spartans executed it in the biggestÂ football game in school history.Â Â Â Â

Previously designed cells for ESR-electrochemical measurements have been limited in their range of applicability because of mutually exclusive constraints placed by the ESR cavity quality factor and/or electrochemical ohmic iR drop problems. In this paper a readily constructed ESR-electrochemical cell has been designed which enables simultaneous in situ ESR-voltammetric and ESR-controlled potential electrolysis experiments to be performed (i) in solvents of either low dielectric constant (dichloromethane) or high dielectric constant (water, ethanol), (ii) with platinum, mercury, gold, silver or other electrode materials, (iii) in either a stationary or flow-through configuration and (iv) at variable temperature. Results for the reduction of the methyl viologen dication to the ESR-active monocation radical are presented to demonstrate the performance of the ESR-electrochemical cell under a range of conditions and to determine both the ESR and voltammetric characteristics of the cell.

New torque convertor and flex plate
The car is finally ready. My dealer did all the work under warranty given they had just replaced the transmission. I got a new torque convertor and flex plate and sundries.
Apparently a new tiptronic transmission doesn't include a torque convertor so right now it's all new with 2 year factory warranty.
Happy I didn't have to pay for this, it wouldn't have been cheap...

European mechanism “Money only for the rule of law”: Commission’s radical initiative to “strengthen correlation between EU funds and rule of law”
de Victor Bratu , 7.5.2018
Translated in common language, the Commission formulated on Wednesday the principles of a mechanism based on which to cut European funding for those member states that do not respect the “rule of law” principle.
The new framework would obviously be applied starting with the next financial year.
Very important: The so-called “Financial Supervisory Mechanism” is a separate proposal from the draft multiannual budget – which requires the unanimous approval of the member states in order to be adopted, so it does NOT need unanimity to be put into operation.
Present at the European Parliament, where the draft budget was discussed before the public presentation, President Jean Claude Juncker assured MEPs that the proposal is “about respecting the rule of law, which is an indispensable condition for the sound financial management,” and does not target any particular state, but will be applied across the Union.
It is clear, however, that once adopted, the mechanism will put pressure first on Hungary and Poland, countries harshly criticized lately for their internal slippages, but also on Romania, which has already come under the spotlight because of the changes in the laws of the judiciary.
Details of the mechanism
The newly proposed mechanism would allow the EU to suspend, reduce or restrict access to European funding in a manner “proportionate to nature, gravity or areas affected by the deficiencies of the rule of law.”
A possible decision in this respect against a member state should be proposed by the Commission and adopted by the Council by the so-called reverse vote of the qualified majority. That is, the proposal is adopted unless a qualified majority is against it.
In the Council, the qualified majority is voted by at least 55% of the member states (16 out of 27), representing at least 65% of the EU population.This decision can be invoked when, from the rule of law point of view, a generalized deficiency threatens:
- The proper functioning of the authorities implementing the European Union budget
- the correct functioning of the investigation and prosecution against budget-related fraud and corruption acts
- efficient judicial control run by independent courts
- prevention and punishment of fraud, corruption or other breaches of the EU budget legislation
- efficient and timely cooperation with the European Anti-Fraud Office and the European Prosecutor’s Office
The new rules would be applied in relation to:
- all European funds under common administration
- funds under direct and indirect management, where the financial beneficiary is a government entity (national, regional, local authority, public body or private organization entrusted with a public service mission)
