Embattled Bitfinex has announced the integration of Blockstream’s Bitcoin sidechain, the Liquid Network. The upgrade is already seeing users impressed with faster and more private transactions.
Bitcoin Liquid Integrated At Bitfinex
One of the biggest cryptocurrency exchanges in the world, Bitfinex, has announced the integration of Blockstream’s Liquid Network.
The Liquid Network is an inter-exchange settlement network which links together cryptocurrency exchanges and institutions in order to enable quicker Bitcoin transactions, as well as the issuance of digital assets.
According to the official announcement, the integration will allow for tighter exchange spreads, faster trading, as well as improved confidentiality.
Speaking on the matter was Paolo Ardoino, CTO at Bitfinex, who outlined:
Issuing Bitcoin, stablecoins, and various other digital assets under one blockchain platform makes a lot of sense. […] It reduces the integration burden for an exchange like ourselves, and traders can manage all their assets from a single wallet application. We’re excited to be active on the Liquid Network, and we’re looking forward to watching it develop.
Results Are Already Showing
The integration of Liquid is already proving to be worthwhile, according to derivatives trader Federico (@Federico_Xmas), who noted:
Just tried transferring BTC from TheRockTrading to Bitfinex using Blockstream Liquid, the transaction was executed and confirmed in less than 5 minutes, and best of all the amount is confidential to outside observers. Congrats to both exchanges and all other people involved.
Just tried transferring BTC from @TheRockTrading to @bitfinex using @Blockstream Liquid, the transaction was executed and confirmed in less than 5 minutes, and best of all the amount is confidential to outside observers. Congrats to both exchanges and all other people involved 👏
— Federico 🎅 (@Federico_Xmas) May 9, 2019
Unlike Bitcoin’s public blockchain, transactions carried out on liquid are private by default. This means that the amounts, as well as the types of assets transacted, are hidden from third parties.
Liquid Network Gaining Traction
Launched in October 2018, the Liquid Network is quickly gaining traction all throughout the space. According to a recent blog post, the network has added 14 new members, including Bluefire Capital, Huobi, OpenNode, Gate.io, and others.
Moreover, the company has revealed that further integrations are also going to go live in the coming weeks. Perhaps one of the more interesting upcoming developments is the fact that BitMEX is also working with Blockstream to support L-BTC deposits and withdrawals.
Additionally, Tether (USDT), and Stably (USDS) have also revealed plans to launch on Liquid.
Back in March, Blockstream also released a user-geared wallet for its Liquid sidechain asset called Liquid Bitcoin (L-BTC).
Bitfinex meanwhile was recently served with a court order by the New York Attorney General, alleging a cover-up of $850 million in losses. While no charges are being sought at the time, the exchange says it’ll fight the ‘false assertions.’
What do you think of Bitfinex integrating Liquid? Don’t hesitate to let us know in the comments below!

More workers in the UK say they wouldn’t work at all if money was no object than any comparable workforce in the world.
In an international poll, commissioned by recruiter Randstad UK, 60 per cent of workers in the UK said they would choose not to work if money was no object.
This was higher than workers in 20 of the UK’s European peers — including Germany, France, Italy, Spain, the Netherlands, Turkey, Poland, Sweden, Belgium, Norway, Austria, Denmark, Romania, the Czech Republic, Portugal, Greece, Hungary, Slovakia, Bulgaria, and Luxembourg — as well as the UK’s closest international competitors.
The poll surveyed 27,250 workers in total, from 27 different countries — including Anglopsphere peers such as Canada, Australia, the USA, and New Zealand, as well as global powerhouses such as China and Japan. While 60 per cent of workers in the UK agreed that “If money was no object, I would choose not to work at all,” the international average, 47 per cent, was far lower. Switzerland, Austria, and Romania had the fewest workers who would quit with 38, 37, and 36 per cent respectively.
Victoria Short, chief executive of Randstad UK, said: “Although there might be very good reasons why people are not currently participating in the workforce — the rising cost of childcare; the need to care for elderly relatives; long-term health conditions; extending their time at university — this research poses a hypothetical question unconstrained by real-world considerations. The answer suggests economic inactivity is more popular here than in other countries. Willingness to participate in the workforce appears to be a peculiarly British problem.
“This could be because the UK has such stressful working conditions that the average employee can only dream of getting away from — that employers in the UK aren’t giving workers what they want or need.
“Treating your staff right is the way to success. That means more flexible, remote and part-time options, improving workplace culture, and doing more to ensure people don’t burn-out from stress and unrealistic workloads.”
According to the labour market statistics from the Office for National Statistics, the rate of economic inactivity for September to November 2022 decreased by 0.1 percentage points on the quarter to 21.5 per cent in September to November 2022, driven by people aged 16 to 24 years and those aged 50 to 64 years. The main reasons for inactivity included studying, long-term sickness, and retirement.
Victoria Short said: “The apparent buoyancy of the jobs’ market overall continues to mask some concerning trends; a persistent workforce shortage and the exodus of workers is the biggest domestic drag on the economy.”
Randstad’s research highlighted some other concerning trends. When asked “How do you feel about your employer and your likelihood to stay with them?” one in seven (15 per cent) of workers in the UK said they were not committed to their employer. One in nine (11 per cent) said work was not important in their life. And one in eight (12 per cent) reported that their job did not give them a sense of purpose
When asked, “In an ideal world, at what age would you retire?”, the average answer was 56. However, when asked “When do you think you will be able to retire?” on average, workers thought 63.
Victoria Short said: “With the state pension age rising, with retirement being delayed, and unretirement looming, finding a fulfilling job has never been more important. There’s no point being miserable and just hanging in there. People need to get out there and find work that feels good”.

The "Romeinenweerd" is a fairly small part in the floodplains of the "Maas" river. The area consists of a forested wetland/swamp with three small waterbodies and surrounding meadows, adjacent to the "Maas" river. The ponds are always interesting for waterfowl, like Common Pochard, Common Teal, Northern Shoveler, Gadwall and Tufted Duck. In spring, sometimes Garganey can be present. Little Grebe is often seen on the eastern en western pond. The eastern and middle pond both contain a small island where geese breed during breeding season, like Greylag Goose and Canada Goose. The western pond is mostly surrounded by reedbeds and are always worth a check for certain reedbirds, like Reed Warbler, Water Rail and Reed Bunting. If you're lucky, a Bearded Tit shows up or even a Great Bittern can be seen foraging on the edge of the reedbeds. Especially in the middle pond, Common Kingfisher can often be seen and heard.
The forested areas are home to a variety of common songbirds, like Common Chiffchaff, Willow Warbler and Greater Whitethroat. You're allowed to get "off road" and walk through the area. Sometimes you'll scare a present Woodcock or even a Great Bittern. The main attraction, though, are the small flocks of European Serin, being present in the bushes. They can often be heard and seen from the start of the track near the parking lot. Although many years ago, flocks of 20-30 individuals could be present. Nowadays, numbers vary between 1-4 individuals, but sometimes more. In winter, the forested area is a good place to find flocks of Lesser Redpoll and Siskin feeding in the trees.
The meadows on the northeastern side of the area are good for species like European Stonechat and Marsh Warbler. Sometimes Whinchat can be present. The scattered bushes are always worth a check for Red-backed Shrike. In winter, these meadows are often used by Great Egret. On the southwestern side of the area, an agriculatural field is present on which Grey Partridge and Common Pheasant can be present.
The river itself can be a good spot for Goosander, besides common species like Great Crested Grebe and Eurasian Coot. Large numbers of gull, mainly Black-headed Gull, fly in southern direction, following the river, towards their sleeping grounds near the city of Roermond.
The area is easy accessable on foot, although there're no paved roads present. Most tracks are covered with grass but the area can get very swampy after much rainfall. You're not bound to stay on the tracks and you're allowed to walk around freely, but watch out for the swamps, because you can get very wet and dirty.

The author of The Pink Hotel recommends five beloved books.
Anna Stothard has crafted a debut novel which evokes the best of Los Angeles noir, while further serving as a touching story of a daughter seeking to learn what became of her departed mother. The Pink Hotel traces the nameless heroine as she unravels the mysterious disappearance of her mother Lily through the book’s titular Venice Beach hotel and beyond, into a tangled web of drugs, love gone awry, and unrelenting paparazzi. The result is a stark and impressive introduction to Stothard’s richly authentic dialogue and firecracker prose. This week, Anna Stothard pays tribute to five books which have inspired her as a writer, each sharing The Pink Hotel‘s assured style and swift resonance.
By Truman Capote
“Few novels capture the furious strangeness of youth like Capote’s lonely coming of age story. When thirteen-year-old Joel Knox arrives at a crumbling mansion in rural Alabama to meet his father, Joel instead finds himself growing up amongst a cast of misfits: a narcissistic transvestite, a bible-thumping servant obsessed by snow, a gloomy tomboy named Idabel who I idolized for years. Capote’s semi-autobiographical tale is about searching for identity in the shadow of absent parents, which was an inspiration for a similar theme in The Pink Hotel. My dog-eared copy is covered in spills and scuffs, re-read endlessly through my teens.”
By Nathaniel West
“I stole my copy of The Day of the Locust from a stage set in Los Angeles, where it was part of a fake apartment where we were shooting a film. My job was to ring a ‘quiet on set’ bell when the camera rolled but I kept missing my cue, immersed instead in this apocalyptic novel about freaks and outlaws on the fringes of Hollywood. Published the same year as Ask the Dust and The Big Sleep (1939 was great year for L.A. literature), The Day of the Locust opens with a cavalry of movie extras disappearing behind a Mississippi steamboat and ends with a celebrity inspired riot. While The Pink Hotel has almost nothing to do with the film industry and West’s novel has everything, his descriptions of escapism and story telling influenced my portrayal of Los Angeles.”
By Virginia Woolf
“A coming of age novel with a twist, Orlando spans 400 years and nearly as many outfits. After reading it in my early twenties, I threw away my life-long wardrobe of ugly men’s sweaters, misshapen t-shirts and frayed trainers, although I didn’t go quite as far as to swap them for “crimson breeches” or ornate robes “of ambiguous gender”. Woolf’s descriptions of the artistry of sexuality kept popping into my head while I was writing The Pink Hotel, where my androgynous protagonist plays with different identities and futures by dressing up in her dead mother’s exotic clothes.”
By Jeffrey Eugenides
“I read The Virgin Suicides for the first time in the concrete courtyard of my Thai Town Los Angeles apartment block, all in one sitting, beginning in blaring in sunshine and finishing with a shiver. It’s a hypnotizing account of how frustrating youth can be, full of dress rehearsals and closed doors. My favorite image in it is of Mary, studying her face in a portable mirror with switches that simulate different times and weather, “watching her face swim through the alterations of counterfeit worlds”. She’s practicing for life, but never gets there. The novel’s atmosphere is eerily disconnected, yet explosive. Everything is viewed at arms length – theatrical and disengaged– which didn’t seem too far from my feelings about Los Angeles at the time.”
By Graham Greene
“This is a writer’s love story, focused on experience and memory as fodder for story telling. Graham Greene’s most intimate novel was an inspiration for the love story in The Pink Hotel, which revolves around lies and storytelling. “Love had turned into a love affair with a beginning and an end,” the narrator of The End of the Affair explains. “I could name the very moment when it had begun, and one day I knew I should be able to name the final hour.” The curiosities of love are beautifully described, but for me it’s always been a story about the complications and pleasures of merging life and fiction.”

Journal of Adhesion, Vol.92, No.10, 840-861, 2016
Effect of Nanoclay on the Mechanical, Thermal, and Water Absorption Properties of an UP-toughened Epoxy Network
Unsaturated polyester (UP)-toughened epoxy nanocomposites were prepared, and their effective mechanical and thermal properties were studied. Two types of organo-modified montmorillonite (OMMT) clays were used to prepare the nanocomposites. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis showed the formation of exfoliated silicate layers in the UP-toughened epoxymatrix. Mechanical tests revealed that nanocomposites (containing 1 wt% OMMT clay) showed an increase in tensile strength to 13.8%, flexural strength to 10%, and impact strength to 4% compared with an UP-toughened epoxy blend. The effect of different heating rates on the curing behavior of UP-toughened epoxy nanocomposites was investigated using non-isothermal differential scanning calorimetry. The data were interpreted using the Kissinger and Flynn-Wall-Ozawa models to find the curing reaction parameter. The water uptake behavior for nanocomposites increased with the addition of OMMTs. Scanning electron microscopy micrographs indicated morphological changes in the impact fractured samples of UP-toughened epoxy nanocomposites.

The arts scene in Singapore has been nothing short of interesting this year, with small-scale art events like ArTITstry and Bras Basah.Bugis Arts Sprawl to bigger-scale ones like the Singapore Night Festival and the on-going Singapore Biennale dotting our arts precinct. Coming up next year is the island’s blockbuster annual art event, Singapore Art Week, the controversial M1 Singapore Fringe Festival (also check out our interview with festival director Sean Tobin) and the Palestinian Film Festival. To add on to the list, Aliwal Arts Centre has announced the return of its annual arts festival.
Happening on Jan 14, the festival will begin at 11am and go on throughout the night. There’ll be a showcase of visual and performance arts inspired by international street cultures and contemporary arts such as the No Regrets For Our Youth by DXXXXD, where you’ll see a curated “urban gym” that touches on today’s culture of being obsessed with body image; a hip-hop block party held at the center’s carpark; exciting music performances from the likes of Disco Hue, Forests and Poptart; and many other ecxiting all-day programs. You can also sign up for various workshops where you can learn to create music using turntables or pick up skills from local artists who’ll accept a good conversation or alcohol as “payment”.

How to Set Up Matches in Match Play Golf
Unlike a traditional golf tournament, where everyone is competing against the entire field, match play golf is a one-on-one affair in which a single player or team takes on an equal number of rivals. Each hole is worth a point, and whoever wins the most points wins the match. As a result, match play draws look like those from tennis, basketball and other sports, where the field gradually dwindles as losers are eliminated.
Creating the Draw
The first step in match play golf is to determine the format – such as singles or pairs – and the number of entries. Generally, match play draws require the number of participants to be a power of 2 – i.e. 8, 16 or 32-person fields. If the number of desired participants is too large, handicaps can be used to divide the golfers into varying flights based on ability. Participants can be seeded based on handicaps, with the scratch golfers placed higher, or the matches can be determined by a blind draw.
Placing the Seeds
If the draw for a match play tournament is based on seeds, the top-rated golfer should be placed atop the draw and open against the lowest-ranking qualifier. The second-ranked golfer should start against the second-lowest qualifier, and be placed at the bottom of the draw. That way, if both advance as expected, they won’t meet until the final. In an 8-person field, the top seed would play the winner of the match between the 4 and 5 seeds in the semifinals, with the No. 2 meeting the 3-6 winner.

The Opening Serve: Off to it's best start in over a decade, the Butler volleyball team returns to Hinkle Fieldhouse on Tuesday (Sept. 16) when it hosts cross-town rival IUPUI beginning at 6:00 p.m. The Bulldogs then kick off the Horizon League schedule when they welcome Valparaiso to town on Friday (Sept. 19) for a 7:00 p.m. contest.
Butler Volleyball On HLN: All of Butler's home volleyball matches can be viewed live online for free through the Horizon League Network, with Cory Stark providing play-by-play for the Bulldogs this season. The games can be viewed by clicking on the "Watch on HLN" link next to the match on the volleyball schedule at www.ButlerSports.com.
A Good Start: The Bulldogs are off to one of the best starts in program history. Butler's 10-1 record is the best since the 1997 team opened up at 11-0 and the second-best record through 11 matches in school history.
We're Going Streaking!: Butler is currently riding a nine-match winning streak, which is the program's longest such trek since the 1997 season when the Bulldogs opened the year with 11 in a row. The 1986 squad set the school record with 15 straight victories.
A Look At This Week's Opponents: IUPUI enters Tuesday's contest with a 6-5 record after dropping three-straight matches to Central Michigan, Boise State and Wisconsin over the weekend. Lauran Thompson leads the Jaguars with 3.14 kills per set. Valparaiso, meanwhile, will take a 7-2 record into Friday's match after having a four-match winning streak end against Western Kentucky on Sept. 13. Angie Porche is the team's leading offensive player with 4.75 kills per set.
Lee Earns League Honor: After leading the Bulldogs with 1.62 blocks per set and notching a career-high for blocks in a match, sophomore Jalesa Lee was named the Horizon League's Defensive Player of the Week. After finishing with four total blocks against Indiana State on Sept. 9, Lee went for a career-best 10 block assists in the first match of the Buffalo Ramada Invitational against Maryland-Eastern Shore. In the final two bouts of the tournament against Maine and the host Bulls, she registered six total blocks in each match to help Butler to the tournament championship.
Champions Again: Butler claimed its second regular season tournament title in as many weeks after claiming wins over Maryland-Eastern Shore, Maine and Buffalo at the Buffalo Ramada Invitational last weekend. The Bulldogs also won three matches in claiming the Kennesaw State Owls Challenge (Sept. 5-6).
Last Week's Results:
Butler 3, Indiana State 1 - Tuesday, Sept. 9 - Indianapolis, Ind.
Sophomore outside hitters Kelsey Labrum and Jessica Wolfe combined for 29 kills and 25 digs in notching a pair of double-doubles and the Bulldogs rebounded from a tough opening-set defeat to score a 15-25, 25-15, 25-12, 25-22 win over Indiana State on Sept. 9 evening. Labrum finished with a season-high 19 kills and added 13 digs for her second double-double of the year, while Wolfe chipped in 10 kills and 12 digs for her second. Porshia Allen, who also tallied double-figure kills with 10, and Maureen Bamiro each notched match-highs with seven block assists each.
Butler 3, Maryland-Eastern Shore 2 - Friday, Sept. 12 -
Butler knocked down a season-high 14 total blocks, including a career-high 10 by Jalesa Lee, as the Bulldogs rallied for a 22-25, 25-20, 23-25, 25-17, 15-10 victory over Maryland-Eastern Shore on Sept. 12 afternoon at the Buffalo Ramada Invitational. Jessica Wolfe led the squad with 19 kills and added 18 digs, while Porshia Allen finished with 18 kills and 11 digs. Kelsey Labrum finished just one dig shy of a double-double with 12 kills and nine digs.
Butler 3, Maine 0 - Friday, Sept. 12 - Buffalo,
Jessica Wolfe and Porshia Allen combined for 25 kills and the Bulldogs totaled 10 blocks, as Butler held off Maine in a closely-contested 27-25, 25-23, 25-23 sweep of the Black Bears at the Buffalo Ramada Invitational on Sept. 12 evening. Butler finished with double-figure blocks for the third straight match while holding Maine to just .127 hitting in the bout.
Butler 3, Buffalo 1 - Saturday, Sept. 13 - Buffalo,
Jessica Wolfe, Kelsey Labrum and Porshia Allen each tallied double-figure kill totals and the Bulldogs combined for nine blocks in the match as Butler scored a 22-25, 25-21, 25-17, 25-19 victory over the host Bulls to claim the Buffalo Ramada Invitational title on Sept. 13 afternoon. Wolfe finished with a match-high 15 kills, while Labrum added 14. Allen notched her third double-double of the season with 12 kills and 14 digs.
Allen, Daprile And Wolfe Earn Tournament Honors - Again: Following the final match of the Buffalo Ramada Invitational, Porshia Allen was named the tournament's MVP, while Dana Daprile and Jessica Wolfe were tabbed alongside on the All-Tournament Team. Allen averaged 3.50 kills, 2.33 digs and 1.08 blocks per set, while Daprile dished 9.50 assists per set and Wolfe added 3.92 kills and 2.75 digs. Coincidentally, the same three Butler players also earned the same honors at the Owls Challenge the previous week.
Blocking Trend: The Butler blocking corps has shined in the early going, as the Bulldogs have notched double-figure blocking totals in six of 11 matches this year, including nine or more in the last four and a season-high 14 against Maryland-Eastern Shore.
Butler In The League Rankings: Butler finds itself ranked at the top of the Horizon League standings not only in wins and losses but also in three statistical categories. The Bulldogs lead the league with a .251 hitting percentage as a team and also hold a league-low .143 opponent hitting percentage. The Butler blocking corps ranks as the best in the conference as well with 2.56 blocks per set. The Bulldogs also rank second in the league with 13.25 kills and 11.80 assists.
Block Party: It should come as no surprise that the Bulldogs lead the league in blocks because they have some of the best middle blockers in the conference. In fact, three of the top four blockers in the league play for Butler, with Jalesa Lee ranking second at 1.14 blocks per set, Porshia Allen in third with 1.11 per set and Maureen Bamiro fourth with 1.09 per set.
Offensive-Minded Setter: Dana Daprile has quite a knack for helping her teammates register kills, as the senior setter ranks third in the Horizon League with 8.70 assists per set. But she isn't afraid to take matters into her own hands either, and has had a lot of success as well. Daprile currently ranks second in the conference with a .321 hitting percentage (62-17-140).
Double-Trouble: Four Butler players have registered double-doubles on the year. Junior Porshia Allen and sophomore Jessica Wolfe have each notched three double-doubles with kills and digs, while sophomore Kelsey Labrum has added two. Senior Dana Daprile, meanwhile, boasts one with assists and digs.
Next Up: Butler continues Horizon League play
on the road next weekend when it heads to Wisconsin for matches
against Milwaukee on Sept. 26 and Green Bay on Sept. 27.

The National Association of Realtors is teaming up with a number of housing and mortgage trade associations to ask the Federal Housing Finance Agency to enable greater access to mortgage credit by using “alternative credit scoring models”.
The new coalition, which calls itself “America’s Homeowners Alliance”, argues that the competition among different credit scoring models is making it more difficult for many borrowers to access affordable credit.
The alliance comes after comments made by FHFA Director Mel Watt, who said that mortgage finance giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac would not be making any changes to their credit scoring models until 2019 at the earliest.
But this timeframe is too long for the coalition members, who say Fannie and Freddie have already completed almost “three full years of internal review and assessment” relating to the matter.
"FHFA's effort to expand the use of alternative credit scoring models is a critical component to reversing the steady decline in homeownership particularly for low- and moderate-income as well as minority consumers," the coalition said in an open letter to Watt. "We were dismayed to hear about this significant push back of the timeline, and we would like to request a meeting with you to explore the factors contributing to the delayed implementation."
Some of the trade associations that make up America’s Homeowners Alliance include the Mortgage Bankers Association, the National Association of Home Builders, the Consumer Federation of America, the Asian Real Estate Association of America, and the National Association of Hispanic Real Estate Professionals.

The erotic thriller is dead. Long live the erotic thriller.
The belief that the sexy sub-genre is dying has been cruelly overestimated. The days of the bombastic A-list illicit thriller may no longer be with us. Those hedonistic times are long gone. The enticing sub-genre of sensual criminal bedfellows has been indecently displaced by changing audience tastes, distribution methods and the internet. Despite this, streaming services are still dipping their toes in a small wealth of titillating trash for fans to enjoy.
Each entry of the 365 Days trilogy (2020-2022) positioned itself at the top of the Netflix charts, despite each one being royally dismantled by the audience and avoided completely by critics. Recent titles such as The Voyeurs (2021) and Deep Water (2022) have suggested the craving may still be gnawing at a more diminished audience. And so, The Beta Test enters the fray. Now indie filmmaker Jim Cummings trying his best to set an example of where unchecked horniness can take us.

Everyone knows a guy like Jordan Haines at their workplace: a wannabe jock-lite try-hard. Mean to underlings, loutish and annoying. There was one thing about the lockdown. Once it had people working from home, I’m sure many were happy they could avoid their Jordan up close and personal. Such characters have made the Hollywood agent stereotype feel commonplace as if Buddy Ackerman was a blueprint, not a warning sign. A Hollywood executive whose charm isn’t as smooth as he thinks it is. While his wandering gaze lingers on the attractive women around him for a tad too long. The Beta Test is the darkly comic tale of how Jordan’s wandering hands push him into a web of anxiety-driven paranoia, after accepting the offer of an anonymous sexual encounter.
Jim Cummings is slowly becoming one of the masters of the male millennial breakdown. In each of his directed features, he highlights himself as a problematic man whose frailties slowly build up and eat at him from the inside. The amusement does not just come from the deadpan delivery of his performances. It also stems from the fact that the characters are authority figures. Driven to the brink by their failures, they scramble for prominence or authority, ignorant that any control of a situation has long slipped past their fingers.
READ MORE: Aliens – Life as a Fan
To that effect, his characters, especially Jordan, are perfect for an erotic thriller. Like Basic Instinct‘s Nick Curran, Jordan is so deluded by his surface ego, along with his genitals, that he is blind to see how his decisions allow trouble to wrap around him like an anaconda. He is a prime erotic thriller fall guy. With his teeth constantly grinding, Jordan scuttles around L.A. desperately seeking out more about the Hollywood Eyes Wide Shut movement he’s fallen into. A purple enveloped event to a secretive thirst trap which leaves Jordan cotton-mouthed. Instead, the agent lusts for the inner workings over a taste of round two.
The Beta Test pushes Cummings’ free-falling modern man into an obsessive world ruled by the data. Cummings allows Jordan, with his tetchy tics and awkward gait, to become the perfect conduit for a dying industry. The film makes no bones in making snarky quips at elements of what the Hollywood dream machine has become. Critics questioned the seemingly disparate narrative joins over the overall ambition. I however beamed at a film which was happily willing to name-check the 2014 Sony hack. An event that markedly notes the behaviour of the characters we watch.
READ MORE: The Isles of the Gods (Amie Kaufman) – Book Review
Paranoia rules over these wanna-be super-agents now. It can be felt in nearly every interaction Jordan has with someone, not in the business. Yes, Weinstein is the figurative monster that everyone can clamp on to. However, the behaviour found within those gossipy emails felt indicative of Hollywood behaviour when sight unseen. Staying away from some of the labyrinthine plot, the film’s climatic revelations are a chilling indictment of not only our social behaviour but also of Hollywood’s current wayward trajectory. The film is the Ashley Maddison data breach writ large. The issue with Jordan is he now knows why PR is paid so much for damage control. Jim’s concern is the focus on how Hollywood might not know what to do with certain talent.
The Beta Test is perhaps Cummings’ most controlled film in terms of craft. Co-directed with the film’s co-star PJ McCabe, the film is wily in how it allows the camera to hold a voyeuristic gaze, but never an offputtingly explicit one. The film’s combination of American Psycho (2000), The Assistant (2019) and Chinatown (1974), not only creates an unpredictably tense tone but allows the film to become more interesting upon subsequent viewings. The film’s sexual moments may not reach the heights of titillation for cinema perverts. However, they are integrated into the narrative far better than so many more gratuitous sequences. Like his previous features, The Beta Test is very much the Jim Cummings show. Whether or not his panic-ridden performances will run out of steam may come into debate in the future. However, for now, the man is worth every scene he directs himself in.

Arrow Video’s bumper two-disc Blu-ray is rich with enjoyable extras. Arrow’s ever-consistent video essayist Alexandra Heller Nicholas notes the spiritual malaise that taps into the heart of The Beta Test, noting the parallels between Jordan and Patrick Bateman in a way other reviewers were not able to. Critic Adams takes a closer look into how hotels in films have shaped how audiences view them. The film’s making-of documentary is unfortunately shorter than one may hope for, however, it highlights the secretive, money-driven element of Hollywood agents and the limitations that come from their approach.
The bonus disc features ‘Minutes’, a collection of interconnecting stories that deal with the most important minutes in the lives of 6 different characters. A short making-of-documentary features here as well. The disc is rounded off with another short film (Us Funny), and Cummings’ filmed excursions into Sundance 2016 and 2017. When you combine the volume of the bonus features with Cummings’ can do, DIY attitude to movie making, it’s hard not to feel that the filmmaker ascribes to a favourite Jay-Z lyric of mine: “Y’all think it’s bougie, I’m like, it’s fine / But I’m tryin’ to give you a million dollars’ worth of game for $9.99”. The Blu-ray UK retail price will probably be a little more than that, but the message is the same.
The Beta Test is out now on Blu-ray from Arrow Video.

She may want daughter Harper to stay a tomboy, but she fully supports young Romeo morphing into a fashion icon. “I can’t stop laughing right now, genius!” she said of the portrait. The artist is still unknown. Lagerfeld has yet to comment, but the Telegraph reports that he has called the fashion-forward tot “handsome, cute, polite” in the past. He’ll most likely approve of the mini-Karl or doppelkarl as this phenomenon is known in his native language.

Objectives: We conducted a clinic-based study of erythrocyte cholinesterase levels, pesticide exposures, and health effects among farmworkers and nonfarmworkers to determine risks for exposure and associated morbidity.
Methods: Two hundred two farmworkers and 42 nonfarmworkers were recruited sequentially at two community health centers. Erythrocyte cholinesterase levels were measured colorimetrically. Questionnaires obtained data on demographics, occupational history, exposures, and symptoms.
Results: Cholinesterase levels were significantly lower among farmworkers (30.28 U/g hemoglobin) than among nonfarmworkers (32.3 U/g hemoglobin). Twelve percent of farmworkers, but no nonfarmworkers, had very low levels. Farmworkers applying pesticides also had lower cholinesterase levels. One half of farmworkers reported being sprayed by pesticides and working in fields with an obvious chemical smell. Of reported symptoms, only diarrhea was associated with cholinesterase levels. Reported exposures, however, were strongly associated with symptoms.
Conclusions: Farmworkers reported many pesticide exposures that violate state and federal regulations. Farmworkers had cholinesterase levels significantly lower than those of nonfarmworkers, although only spraying pesticides was associated with very low levels.

Beijing: Amid the fallout with China over various issues, Taiwanese firms are pivoting to India drawn by its giant market, inexpensive skilled workforce and generous tax breaks, South China Morning Post reported.
According to a report in South China Morning Post, the firms from Taiwan are seeking to reduce their reliance on mainland China.
The Taiwanese company Pegatron, an assembly partner for the US tech giant Apple, earlier this month announced that it was applying for permits to set up its first plant in India.
The firm, which reported revenue of USD 44.8 billion in 2019, normally offshores its orders to its factories in mainland China.
But analysts and the Taiwanese government said the firm’s swing into India is only the latest example of a trend that has been gaining pace over the past four years as ties between New Delhi and Taipei strengthened.
Between 2016 and 2019 two-way trade rose 14 per cent to USD 5.7 billion, according to the Taiwan Bureau of Foreign Trade.
According to the business consultancy Dezan Shira & Associates in New Delhi, investments by Taiwanese firms in India had reached USD 360.5 million by the end of 2018.
About 140 Taiwanese companies are now operating in India, mostly in manufacturing, according to Dezan Shira, which says there has been an upswing of interest over the past four years.
The report said a “charm offensive” by the Prime Minister Narendra Modi government that has included slashing corporate tax rates has added to “India’s appeal just as many companies look to diversify supply chains in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic and amid increasing signs of US-China decoupling”.
Companies in Taiwan, the world’s 22nd largest economy, have historically picked mainland China for offshoring production of electronics and machinery but despite the mainland’s proximity, common language and shared culture, costs are rising and the US-China trade war that broke out in 2018 raised tariffs on goods shipped out of China to the United States.
“Because of global impacts from the US-China trade war and the novel coronavirus outbreak, diffusion of risk and allocations is an irreversible trend,” the island government’s InvesTaiwan office told This Week in Asia.
“Taiwan investors considering India see a huge domestic market and ample labour,” the government office added. (ANI)

Alex Burrows scored two goals including the overtime winner as the Vancouver Canucks beat the Chicago Blackhawks 2-1 and advanced to the Conference Semi Finals Tuesday night.
Burrows foiled a clearing attempt by Chris Campoli with his glove, moved into the high slot and blasted a rolling puck into the top corner to end the game and the series.
This was the third time the two teams had met in the playoffs and the first time Vancouver had won.
Jonathan Toews scored the other goal in the game, his only one of the series.
Burrows continued his hot play from game six opening the scoring with his second of the series. Mason Raymond entered the zone and dished the puck to Ryan Kesler. The gritty centre broke towards the net with a head of steam before sliding the puck back to Burrows in the slot. Burrows buried it past the glove of Corey Crawford making it 1-0.
In the last two games, Burrows has three goals and two assists.
After not starting the previous game, Roberto Luongo was back in net for Vancouver and in fine form to boot. The former team captain silenced his critics from earlier games quickly and often. Making numerous saves to keep his team alive, Luongo once again looked like the goaltender which helped his team win the President’s Trophy.
Luongo made 31 saves on the night.
21 seconds into the third period Burrows scooped up a loose puck from the Vancouver zone and blazed down the centre of the ice out-skating Duncan Keith for a breakaway but was tripped and awarded the second penalty shot of the series. Burrows broke in wide, crossed the centre plain, and was stopped by the right pad of Crawford.
Vancouver had another chance to extend their lead to two at 14:53 of the third period. Chris Higgins out muscled his checker to make it in front of the net and force Crawford to make a sprawling save. While on the ground, the 26 year old Montreal native proceeded to stop Burrows and then Kesler from that position. Kesler did not record a goal in the series. Crawford made 36 saves.
With 3:16 remaining in the final period Keith took a hooking penalty which against all odds, spelled out the end of the Vancouver lead.
Brent Seabrook broke up a break out and tipped the puck to Toews. After running into a double team of Vancouver defencemen Toews passed it to Marian Hossa who lobbed a weak backhand shot on net. Luongo made the initial save but couldn’t control the rebound which went onto the stick of a falling Toews who finally recorded his first goal of the series and made the score 1-1.
Notes: After leaving Game 6 Cory Schneider was on the bench as the backup goalie…Tomas Kopecky and Bryan Bickell were scratched for Chicago…Sami Salo, Cody Hodgson, and Aaron Rome were scratched for Vancouver…15 players between the two teams have experience in Game 7 (three for Chicago, 12 for Vancouver).

Indy Warrior Partnership (IWP)’s goal focuses on connecting with and building a local community of veterans in Central Indiana. We do this through many different outlets, including getting out into the local community and finding veterans who would not otherwise self-identify as needing help. This was the case for Cameron Dobbs*, a Korean War-era veteran who reached out for assistance after learning about IWP from a presentation at his long-term care facility.
Cameron first heard about IWP after Program Lead Matt Hall delivered a presentation at his long-term care facility. Cameron is 94 years old and served in the Army during the Korean War (’51-’53). After hearing Matt’s compelling demonstration of what IWP does to uplift veterans in the community, Cameron decided to reach out to see if he could receive support. Cameron told IWP Community Coordinator Abby Pequignot about his life and time in the service. He also told her he only had a 10% disability rating but hadn’t re-filed in several years.
Abby was able to get in contact with an Indianapolis City VSO to help Cameron. The VSO graciously agreed to visit Cameron at his facility, so he did not have to worry about transportation. The VSO is currently in the filing process for the disability increase, which we hope to be wrapped up soon. IWP will maintain contact with the VSO and Cameron, to ensure he continues to get the resources and support he needs. If it wasn’t for Matt’s presentation, however, Cameron may not have even been aware this support was available to him. Instances like this show how important community integration and outreach is to empower veterans in the Indy community.

Indy is stronger when our veterans are stronger. Connect with IWP to learn more about how you can give back to the Indy veteran community by visiting our website and completing an online form: www.indywarriorpartnership.org
