It's no secret that Timothee Chalamet has a lot of fans. Thanks to his brilliant roles in Call Me By Your Name, Little Women and The French Dispatch (SO excited for that), he's accumulated alot of dedicated followers, of which we are one.
But that fandom isn't restricted to social media only. As well as his 10million Instagram followers and 1.5million Twitter fans, the actor has also got a lot of people that like to send him fan mail.
In his latest Instagram Stories, 24-year-old Timothee revealed the amount of gifts, presents and letters he had received from fans. Certain items included cushions with his face on them (terrifying), mugs with his most popular films on (cool), and a headband with a peach on it (hilarious).
"Fan box day," the actor wrote with a picture of a room full of cardboard boxes.
Previously, Timothee has delighted fans by actually wearing the gifts his fans have sent him, with a Twitter thread once going viral with pictures of him in fan socks, necklaces and even a hand embroidered t-shirt.
A source told E! News the pair broke up in early summer, while a second insider told the publication they reportedly met with Eiza recently and she made no mention of Timothée and "seemed single".
The pair got together following Timothée's split from from Lily-Rose Depp in April 2020, while Eiza was previously linked to Holidate actor Luke Bracey.

The month of May was come, when every lust heart beginneth to blossom, and to bring forth fruit ― Sir Thomas Malory, Le Morte d’Arthur
The Master and Margarita by Mikhail Bulgakov
Summary: One hot spring the devil makes a personal appearance in Moscow accompanied by various demons, including a naked girl and a huge black cat. When he leaves, the asylums are full and the forces of law and order in disarray. Only the Master, a man devoted to truth, and Margarita, the woman he loves, can resist the devil’s onslaught.
It took me a long time to decide which book to feature on my TBR for this month and I’m still not sure whether I’ll actually read this or not. What’s on your TBR for May?

Competiton Bochum Center of Music, Germany
Client: City of Bochum
2nd prize 2012
The new "Bochum Center of Music", a key element of the Viktoria Quarter of Bochum inner-city creative quarter, will combine within a single public building a performance and rehearsal concert venue for the Bochum Symphonic Orchestra and a multifunctional hall for the city's music school. The Center of Music will be developed on the vacant, council-owned plot and will incorporate the converted Marienkirche church. Funds of approx. The task set out in the competition was to create a contemporary building of culture that would develop the Marienkirche church and the new building into a union of architecture and urban planning as well as a location within the ViktoriaQuartierBochum. The design of JSWD features two very natural area settings that conjoin with the church: the forecourt on Victoriastrasse including the main entrance to the shared foyer and the church plaza with the side entrance. A generous open staircase leads to the city balcony that can host open-air events. Here, the new structure promotes itself and music with its openness and transparency. The new building becomes a public stage and facilitates a deep view inside the building. The curtain made from filigree, ceramic profiles dissolves – the massive, monolithic hall volume evolves. On the ground floor the hall attaches to the foundation of the church. The emergent and design-characterizing glazing of the church nave will remain free from any construction. A "solitary ensemble" will arise.

For some years now, I have been creating series of paintings in which my themes evolve from one painting to the next. My work is based on photography, which I use as a sketch or a draft for the later painted image, and it’s intricately linked to cinematography. However where traditional cinema relies on a continuous flow of events and thereby creates a story with a beginning and an end, my work is comprised of several series of stills. My paintings form no obvious storyline but rather leave it to the viewer’s imagination to bridge the gap between image and story.
A female character, whose age is rarely discernible, frequently inhabits my paintings. This constructed image is usually based on photographs of me taken by myself. Yet it’s obviously not a self-portrait, but something different – an alter ego, a memory, or a fantasy.
The characters in my work, my dramatis personae, have a double existence, for although they seem to be caught in a snapshot, trapped in the briefest moment in time; they are also rendered eternal through the slow and lasting medium of painting. My work thus expresses a longing for the moment, the instance, where everything can still happen, where possibilities are plenty, and where something bad happening can still be avoided.

NEW YORK, 19 April (UN Headquarters) -- Following is the text of todays statement to the press on Iraq-Kuwait by Security Council President Wang Guangya (China):
On 19 April, members of the Security Council received a briefing from Ambassador Yuli Vorontsov, the Secretary-Generals High-Level Coordinator, on the eighteenth report of the Secretary-General, in accordance with paragraph 14 of Security Council resolution 1284 (1999). Council members expressed their full support for Ambassador Vorontsovs work and for his continued efforts in pursuit of his mandate.
Council members shared the views expressed by the Secretary-General in his report and strongly condemned the execution of Kuwaiti and third country nationals by the previous Iraqi regime, in violation of human rights and international humanitarian law. Security Council members agreed that those responsible for these horrendous crimes should be brought to justice.
Council members again expressed their deepest condolences to all of the families of those missing persons that had now been identified. Members of the Council also expressed their continuing concern for the plight of the families of those missing persons whose whereabouts were still unknown.
Members of the Council again stressed the importance of the work of the International Committee of the Red Cross, the Tripartite Commission and its Technical Subcommittee, and the involvement of the Government of Iraq. Council members welcomed the desire of the Government of Iraq to cooperate fully with Ambassador Vorontsov and offer the necessary assistance to enable him to discharge his responsibilities in accordance with the relevant Security Council resolutions, as set out in a letter of 9 March from Mr. Hoshyar Zebari, Iraqi Minister for Foreign Affairs, to the Secretary-General.
Council members further welcomed the actions of Iraqi Ministry of Foreign Affairs to publish in the media the names and photographs of missing persons whose remains had not yet been found, with a request that any relevant information be reported to the competent Iraqi authorities.
Council members are confident that the new Iraqi Government will continue this constructive engagement and call on all parties concerned to continue to work towards a satisfactory solution to all of the outstanding humanitarian and property aspects covered by Ambassador Vorontsovs mandate.
Council members agreed to keep Ambassador Vorontsovs mandate under review and recalled that Iraq continues to have international obligations, as set out in paragraph 14 of Security Council resolution 1284 (1999).

Port of Gulfport bill passes
Published: April 18,2012
JACKSON — Legislation that removes the Port of Gulfport and its $570 million post-Hurricane Katrina expansion and renovation from state government oversight has been sent to the governor.
The Mississippi House gave final legislative approval to House Bill 1091 on Tuesday.
The bill exempts the Port of Gulfport from state-agency bidding and purchasing oversight and declares it to be its own governing authority.
A contractor’s complaint to Department of Finance and Administration in 2011 that he was passed over as the low bidder on a multimillion-dollar dredging project prompted the agency to intervene, and the attorney general opined the port should have always come under DFA oversight.
An attorney general’s opinion does not carry the weight of law but is designed to provide public entities a level of protection in court.
Supporters, including port leaders, said the port has always been its own governing authority and already has to follow state bid laws and answer to various state and federal agencies. They say the port doesn’t need more state bureaucracy slowing projects down.
Opponents said the port should come under DFA and its procurement board and other scrutiny, especially as it spends hundreds of millions of federal dollars on the expansion.
“This is just removing one layer of bureaucracy, and it’s the same process the port has operated under for years,” said House Ports, Harbors and Airports Chairman Alex Monsour Jr., R-Vicksburg. “(Gulfport) is the only state port operating under this.”

The Consumer Price Index (CPI) for July recorded inflation of 24.93 percent, the biggest year-over-year increase since November 2008.
According to information released by the Pakistan Bureau of Statistics (PBS) on Monday, CPI inflation rose 4.35 percent from June.
Last month, the year-over-year inflation rate was estimated at 21,3 percent, the highest level in over 13 years.
According to PBS data, inflation was recorded at 23.6 percent in urban regions and 26.93 percent in rural areas.
The transport sector led the inflationary trend with a price increase of 64.73 percent year-over-year, followed by perishable food goods at 32.93 percent and nonperishable food items at 28.12 percent.
All other industries had double-digit inflation except for the education and communication sectors, where inflation was 9.79% and 4.09%, respectively.
These industries are:
- Restaurants and hotels: 24.97pc
- Alcoholic beverages and cigarettes: 22.48 percent
- Housing and expenses: 21.78 percent
- Maintenance of furnishings and domestic equipment: 19.69%
- Other products and services: 17.14 percent
- Recreation and culture: 15.41pc
- Clothing and shoes: 14.57 percent
- Health: 11.22 percent
According to a PBS press release, the prices of motor fuels increased by as much as 99 percent annually, followed by electricity at 86 percent and liquefied hydrocarbons at 51 percent.
Pulses, onions, ghee, and cooking oil were among the food items with the most significant price increases compared to the prior year.
In its Monthly Economic Update and Outlook for July, the Ministry of Finance stated earlier this week that year-on-year inflation, which has remained in double digits since November 2021, would continue in July and hover around the level observed in June (21.3pc) due to the increase in international commodity prices, particularly energy prices, and the depreciation of the rupee.
According to the forecast, domestic inflation was impacted by international commodity prices, particularly oil and food costs, and the exchange rate depreciation. However, it acknowledged that the majority of inflation in the last two months was also due to supply shocks, whose impact has eclipsed government efforts to stabilize prices.
It cautioned that persistent political turmoil was producing governance issues and exacerbating market insecurity already brought on by low foreign exchange reserves and external pressures.
“Inflationary and external sector threats are aggravating the economy’s macroeconomic imbalances. In addition, the current political upheaval heightens economic uncertainty, weakening the rupee and influencing the cost of production. These variables render the economic outlook unpredictable.”

Bronson Health COVID Letter Misstates Several Key Statistics
The Bronson health care system posted an open letter on Sept. 1 that made several misleading claims.
The letter advocates for people to get vaccinated for COVID-19.
Here are the questionable claims made:
Claim #1: “Nationally, approximately 99% of individuals dying from COVID-19 are unvaccinated.”
This statistic relies on data from periods when only a small portion of the population was eligible for a vaccine. More recent statistics suggests that a larger share of COVID-19 patients and deaths are vaccinated individuals. For example, in the state of Michigan, the most recent data on breakthrough cases shows those vaccinated accounted for 23% of cases, 21% of hospitalizations and 18% of deaths from Aug. 1-Aug. 30.
Claim #2: “In fact, it is most alarming that pediatric hospitalizations are on the rise due to the complications of COVID-19 infection. As kids return to school, the most important thing parents can do is get them vaccinated as soon as they’re eligible and urge everyone in your family to mask up in public.”
There has been a large percentage increase in pediatric hospitalizations of patients with a confirmed positive test, the number of cases remains small.
On Aug. 9, there were seven confirmed pediatric cases in Michigan that tested positive for COVID-19. That number increased to 16 as of Sept. 8.
Claim #3: “We are seeing our emergency rooms and hospital beds and intensive care units fill up again with this fourth surge of COVID-19, with more than 1,000 individuals now hospitalized with a preventable virus.”
The statewide hospital bed occupancy rate was 77% as of Sept. 8. None of the 132 hospitals surveyed reported being over capacity.
According to the state, from Sept. 1-7, only 6% of the inpatient beds are being used by patients who tested positive for COVID-19.
Statewide, 2,410 of the 3,038 ICU beds were occupied, or 79%. None of the state’s eight regions reported being over capacity for ICU beds.
As of Sept. 5, the seven-day average for emergency room visits from people arrived with COVID-like symptoms was 1.1%

Allocating surveillance resources to reduce ecological invasions: maximizing detections and information about the threat
Andrew Robinson, Mark A Burgman, Rob Cannon
Ecological Applications | WILEY | Published : 2011
Allocating resources to detect invasive pests, diseases, and pathogens on exposure pathways requires a trade-off between the need to detect as many contaminated items as possible and the need to acquire knowledge about contamination rates. We develop a model and an algorithm that provide guidance for the allocation of inspection resources across multiple dynamic pathways in cases where not every item can be inspected. The model uses a null hypothesis that the contamination rate of a pathway is above a specified level: a risk cutoff. Pathways with a risk above the cutoff are fully inspected, and those with a risk below the cutoff level are monitored at a rate that would detect a change of the..View full abstract

The normal position taken by the regulator is
“We do not normally count the storage provided within water butts or rainfall harvesting measures towards the attenuation storage requirements as there is no guarantee that these devices would be empty at the time that a rainfall event occurs”.
This is a reasonable position to take for standard rainwater harvesting design as it takes no account of the relationship between the demand and supply of the storage unit. For a complete explanation of designing rainwater harvesting systems for surface water control reference can be made to BS8515 Rainwater harvesting code of practice (2009, rev 2013). For a more in depth explanation the report by HR Wallingford “SR736_Developing Stormwater Management using Rainwater Harvesting” (2012) can be studied.
The principle which allows rainwater systems to be designed to provide surface water control (prevent runoff) is based on demand being greater (on average over a period of time) than the supply to it. There is uncertainty associated with the calculations for both the demand and supply elements and these issues are discussed in the HR Wallingford report.
However this rule (demand / supply ratio) is not seen as needing to be complied with if rainwater harvesting is only being used for meeting Interception requirements. A simple check to see that demand is greater than 5mm of rainfall runoff in 2 or 3 days would suffice, on the basis that rainfall only occurs on average about once every three days.
It should be noted that recent trends towards leakage flows from water butts and rainwater tanks to create storage in the system to attenuate the subsequent runoff does not comply with the principle of Interception even though they may have value in providing some degree of stormwater runoff attenuation.

Crabtree hits four 3s with four fouls in fourth quarter
BY CHUCK VANDENBERG
FORT MADISON – Holy Trinity Catholic head coach John Hellige said senior Blake Crabtree is a streaky shooter.
But the streak ran just a little cold as the Crusaders fell to Cardinal of Eldon Tuesday night in 63-61 in overtime.
Crabtree who’d hit four 3-pointers in the fourth quarter playing with four fouls, missed two of three free throws, the third intentionally with a just over a second left in the game sealing the win for Cardinal (6-4) winners of five straight.
Crabtree heated up from the left wing in the fourth quarter. In addition to the four 3-pointers, he had another catch a bad bounce on the way through the rim and pop out with :58 left in the game. His fourth 3-ball knotted the score at 56-all with 23 seconds left.
“He just caught fire and we tried to get him the ball. He’s a streaky shooter and tonight he was really good,” Hellige said.
Cardinal’s sophomore Dalton Lewis made a circus fade away jumper off the glass falling down off the right side of lane to put Cardinal up by two, but HTC senior Matt Hellige hit two critical free throws with 14.9 left in the game to tie the score at 58 and force overtime.
To start the extra period, the Crusaders committed back-to-back turnovers, but Cardinal wouldn’t take advantage of the miscues. HTC looked to score first when Quentin Schneider, also playing with four fouls, drove the lane but couldn’t convert the layup.
He would miss both free throws and Cardinal’s Landon Becker would hit a 3-ball on the other side from the left wing to put the Rockets up 61-58.
Crabtree would miss a three in the next possession and Cardinal would get the rebound, but a pesky Vasin Thurman, who finished with 20 points on the night, hung around and picked off a pass under HTC’s basket to make it 61-60.
After a couple more turnovers on both ends, Holy Trinity’s Chandler Rung would bump into Blaine Bryant and get called for the foul. Bryant would convert both with 16.5 left on the clock.
HTC would call a time out to set up a final play at their end to try and free up Crabtree.
The Crusaders worked the perimeter and then got the ball to Crabtree in front of the HTC faithful and let go with a shot from the left side that clanked off the back of the rim. But Becker leaped into Crabtree and was whistled for the foul sending Crabtree to the line for three free throws and a chance to tie the game with :01.5 left, down 63-60.
Crabtree would make the first and miss the second forcing another time out. He intentionally missed the third, but a heave from Thurman at the buzzer fell left of the basket.
Hellige said the play was to move the ball around to Crabtree for the shot.
“We were trying to get it to him. That was the play we wanted.”
Cardinal has won five straight playing with a host of sophomores, four of whom scored in double figures in the win.
“They just knocked off Pekin, who’s one of the top teams in the (Southeast Iowa Superconference) North. We scouted them heavily and expected a good game tonight,” Hellige said.
He also said the Crusaders have been battling some sickness which he attributed to the 17 turnovers Tuesday.
“We’re just trying to find that consistence we found at Mediapolis before the break,” Hellige said. “We need to cut down on the turnovers, make layups, make free throws – the easy stuff.”
The loss was the second in overtime this year, and three of the Crusaders losses this year have come by three points or less.
Crabtree finished with 16 points on the night. Jason Thurman had eight, Hellige had seven, Rung added six and Quentin Schneider added five to round out the scoring for HTC.
Grainer had 17 for Cardinal. Becker and Bryant each added 14 for the Rockets.
The Crusaders (3-6) travel to Central Lee (1-9) Friday in girls/boys varsity double header.

Five multiple-story warehouses being marketed in U.S. as retailers strain to meet hot e-commerce demand in urban settings, firm says.
This CBRE chart shows current and potential areas for multistory warehouse development and the population density of each area.
markets is inspiring developers to build a new wave of multistory warehouses, a report released today by real estate services and investment firm CBRE Group Inc. said.
Distribution centers (DCs) with multiple stories are typically restricted to European and Asian markets, where industrial space is at a premium compared to sprawling U.S. cities. That rule of thumb still holds true, but a perfect storm of market conditions in the U.S. might make it possible for the phenomenon to reach this country as well in certain geographies, the firm found.
CBRE is tracking the development of five multistory warehouses currently under construction, including three in New York City, one in San Francisco, and one recently completed in Seattle. The common threads in those projects are: a large, densely packed population; high industrial land prices and rents; and significant penetration of e-commerce use among residents, according to CBRE.

We partnered with Austin Food Magazine to bring together social media influencers, exciting brands from Austin and beyond, and food-obsessed community members for a day of delicious competition and experimentation. Hosted graciously by our friends at Lenoir, the event featured a grill competition using Traeger grills, featuring our locally sourced meat and served alongside Nine Banded Whiskey cocktails and Richard’s Rainwater.
We had a few tricks up our own sleeve, and showed off a few recipes inspired by our friends at Traeger. We kept the hungry crowd fed with beer can chicken (with the delicious Marco IPA from Zilker Brewing), simply delicious smoked pork belly sandwiches, and carne asada skirt steak with salsa verde.
Pork belly fresh off the smoker.
Pork belly sandwiches occupied the crowd until competition time.

With light snacking and fraternization out of the way, it was competition time. At 6:30, the competitors were assigned to their grills and the rules were laid out. The competition would have three phases, beginning with chicken wings, followed by bavettes and concluding with quail, and the food writers and bloggers in competition were ready to show off their skills in styles all their own. The cooks included:
Gavin & Karen - Couple in the Kitchen
Natalie Paramore - Natalie Paramore
Shayda Torabi - with Shayda
Sydney Torabi - Spin Syddy
Shannon McGarry Krawll- ATX Party Girl
Nine Banded Whiskey lent their delicious signature product to the event’s Peach Old-Fashioned cocktails.
Our own Lisa Flynn laid out the available supplies, and the mad dash began, competitors duking it out for available supplies, eager to get their chicken wings seasoned while leaving enough time to crisp them on the grill. The end of phase one brought a wide range of preparations to the judges table, and we took a special liking to Natalie Paramore’s Pok Pok wing recipe, which she was kind enough to share.

So while the crowd enjoyed cold beer on a (very) hot day, the judges had the great pleasure of selecting favorites from a pool of exquisite grill-work, with food writer Natalie Paramore ultimately winning out. Prizes included bottles of Nine Banded Whiskey, Rosso & Flynn steaks, a small trophy and a summer’s worth of bragging rights.
The night finished as it began: with conversation, cold drinks and a community of friends sharing a passion for food, growing business, and good company.

See it 24 hours before you're supposed to.
Late last week, Porsche announced plans to reveal two new 911s tomorrow, May 18. Two very likely possibilities immediately came to mind: the 992 generation 911 Targa and GT3. Today, it appears one of those has been confirmed thanks to some leaked images. What you're looking at are the first images of the next Porsche 911 Targa 4. Although they are a bit grainy, we can clearly see Porsche stuck with the familiar Targa styling on the B-pillars.
As with the outgoing 991 generation, also pictured below, there's an electrically operated folding roof instead of the retractable heavy glass roof found on the 997. Other noticeable details include 'Targa' badges at the rear above the exhaust pipes and, of course, an all-glass hatch.
It's basically exactly how we thought the 992 911 Targa would look like, so definitely no exterior styling surprises here. We'll have to wait until tomorrow to get the full lowdown regarding additional information, such as pricing and a launch date.
Because this is the Targa 4, it'll come powered by the familiar 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged flat-six pumping out 380 horsepower and 332 lb-ft of torque. A Targa 4S version is also expected and like its non-Targa counterpart, it'll feature this same engine with an upgraded 444 hp and 391 lb-ft of twist. Power will be routed to all four wheels through an eight-speed PDK gearbox. Will the seven-speed manual transmission be optional? We should find out in 24 hours or so.
Other equipment you can expect to find is the Sport Chrono Package, adaptive cruise control, night vision, and an optional sports suspension that lowers the car by 10 mm. As for the second reveal tomorrow, chances are it will be the new GT3, as noted above. In fact, Porsche previously and very briefly teased it in its Super Bowl commercial in February. It took a fast eye to even notice.
We'll have complete details on both reveals tomorrow so stay tuned.

In 2019, NHRM first tried to organize the "Green Island Human Rights Art Festival" using contemporary art as a medium. It was well received and was nominated for the 18th Taishin Art Award.
This year, 14 artists, 21 pieces (19 brand new, tailor-made for the art festival) use archival research, field investigations, image production, text writing, artistic actions, and other methods to dare to challenge mainstream norms, and discuss human rights issues from different aspects.
It is also the first time that NHRM cooperated with National Taipei University of the Arts. Through "Politics of Memory and Art Intervention" course, students from different art departments understood and discussed the theme of Taiwan's history and transitional justice from the classroom for the first time. Five contemporary pieces of art centered on "remembrance and marginalization" are exhibited together in the art festival, hoping to encourage the younger generation to pay attention to human rights issues through artistic creation.
“Freedom of Speech” is a part of basic human rights, but during the period of martial law in Taiwan, there were more than thousands of imprisonment cases due to speech, text, or images. Under the “No...

J.T. Corenflos kept playing his guitars in Nashville recording sessions into late September of last year.
He put health problems aside, determined to continue adding his catchy lead guitar licks that made recording artists' songs special. Sadly, the lung disease the Terre Haute native had coped with for years soon claimed his life on Oct. 24 in Nashville, Tenn. He was 56 years old.
"He had just recorded with Charley Pride and a lot of others," said Annabeth Robinson, Corenflos' longtime girlfriend, said of his sessions through August and September 2020. Pride, a country music legend himself, also passed away shortly after those recording sessions, in December.
Corenflos' final year of musicianship left an impression.
The Academy of Country Music has awarded Corenflos the Guitar Player of the Year for 2020. The ACM Honors Awards were released this month, but will be formally presented on Aug. 25 in the historic Ryman Auditorium in Nashville. Those special awards include categories not included in the televised ACM Awards show in April, including those for the industry's outstanding studio musicians. The ACM board of directors selects the winners of the Honors Awards.
"We're just completely thrilled that he's being recognized this way for his body of work," Robinson said by phone Tuesday from Nashville.
Corenflos won the Guitar Player of the Year in a field that included four other nominees — Derek Wells, Ilya Toshinskiy, Jedd Hughes and Kris Donegan.
It's the second ACM Guitar Player of the Year award for Corenflos, who also won it for his work in 2012. He also was nominated for the award 12 other times — 2015, 2014 and every year from 2002 to 2011. Past winners of the top guitarist award include icons such as Brent Mason, Chet Atkins, James Burton and Roy Clark.
In his acceptance speech after winning his first ACM nine years ago, Corenflos recalled his first Nashville performance with Grand Ole Opry great Jean Shepard in 1982 and being "scared to death." Corenflos was 18 years old at the time and had just moved from his hometown of Terre Haute to Music City. "And tonight I win my first ACM, and I'm scared to death," Corenflos quipped at the awards program in 2013.
Through a 38-year career in Nashville, Corenflos became one of the recording industry's most sought-after session guitarists. He performed on nearly 75 singles that reached No. 1 on the Billboard Country Music charts. His contributions graced hit songs and albums by country singers such as Tim McGraw, Kenny Chesney, Alan Jackson, Luke Bryan, Martina McBride, George Strait, Carrie Underwood, George Jones, Toby Keith, Rascal Flatts and others. Rockers including Bob Seger, the Doobie Brothers and Sheryl Crow also benefited from Corenflos' studio virtuosity.
Two of his final public performances came at the Terre Haute Symphony Orchestra's 2019 Christmas concert in Tilson Auditorium, and then at Corenflos’ induction into the Wabash Valley Musicians Hall of Fame on March 8, 2020, at the Zorah Shrine.
Once the COVID-19 pandemic hit, Robinson said she and Corenflos spent most of those months secluded in their beach-side Florida home.
"We would just sit on the back deck overlooking the ocean, and we wrote three songs," she recalled. Later, Corenflos recorded the songs in his home studio, backed by his son, Jacob, and fellow session musicians and singers. Robinson hopes to get those recordings released to the public.
His 2020 sessions were limited, but when he did play, Corenflos' ailments didn't affect his guitar abilities.
"He was still at his top skill level, even at the end," Robinson said. "He'd want to take a nap afterward, but he was still getting calls and performing."
Upon Corenflos' passing last fall, Luke Bryan praised the guitarist's many years of creativity, skill and courage.
"He was a soft-spoken genius that let his fingers do the talking," Bryan wrote in an October social media post. "He has played on countless records of mine, and many times turned a good song into something unique and special. And at the end of the day, he made big, old hit records.
"For most of the time I knew J.T., he was battling health problems related to the hand he was dealt," Bryan continued. "Talk about a fighter. Some days, he could barely pick his guitar up. But when he played, he played like it was his last time, and for everyone in the room it was a beautiful thing to watch."
Robinson said she, Jacob, J.T.'s Terre Haute family members and more friends and relatives plan to attend the ACM ceremony on Aug. 25 at the Ryman.
"We're very excited they're going to honor him," she said, "and I know he's looking down from heaven on us, and smiling."

The Guantánamo Memoirs of Mohamedou Ould Slahi For nearly 11 years, Mohamedou Ould Slahi has been a prisoner in Guantánamo. In 2005, he began to write his memoirs of his time in captivity. His handwritten 466-page manuscript is a harrowing account of his detention, interrogation, and abuse. Although his abuse has been corroborated by U.S. government officials, declassified documents, and independent investigators, Slahi tells his story with the detail and perspective that could only be known by himself and the people who have kept him captive. It is impossible for us to meet with him or independently verify his account. Until now, it has been impossible for him to tell his story. [ht homunculus]

An official Q&A with the Secretary of Defense, Donald Rumsfeld, alludes to some extremely scary/interesting tidbits-- the Office of Strategic Influence is still alive, John Poindexter can do anything he pleases with DARPA, we just might renew nuclear weapons testing.
Don't worry, though. Rummy sez: "Anyone who is concerned ought not be. Anyone with any concern ought to be able to sleep well tonight. Nothing terrible is going to happen."

Advances in stem cell–mediated regenerative medicine have had a profound effect on interventional approaches to irreversible, blinding retinal diseases. In 2015,1 transplant of retinal pigment epithelial cells derived from human embryonic stem cells was shown to be safe in a phase 1/2 clinical trial for patients with age-related macular degeneration and Stargardt disease. Research involving induced pluripotent stem cells for retinal degenerative diseases also shows promise.2 Despite the potential of this therapeutic practice, many unregulated stem-cell treatments have emerged3 that may be harmful. We present a case of central retinal artery occlusion following autologous bone marrow peribulbar stem cell injection for retinitis pigmentosa.

Shaista Lodhi, who hosted one of the most popular morning shows on Pakistani television, appears to have tied the knot.
She announced her nuptials in a tweet that quoted a Quranic verse about marriage:
Unfortunately for her fans, she shied away from revealing the identity of her husband.
Shaista, who was earlier known as Shaista Wahidi, divorced her former husband in 2012.
Lodhi is rumoured to soon be returning to television after a hiatus following an uproar over allegedly blasphemous content on her TV show.
She had moved with her three children to Dubai and made a return trip to Karachi earlier this month.

FULTON COUNTY, Ga. — Editor's note: The video above is from a previous story.
Attorneys for Atlanta rapper Young Thug filed an emergency motion on Friday, claiming that he's been wrongfully charged in a recent indictment, according to Fulton County court documents. They are requesting a bond hearing and for "more humane/non-torturous" housing while he is in custody.
Young Thug, whose legal name is Jeffery Williams, is accused of being a founder and active leader of the violent Young Slime Life street gang. The indictment mentions specific criminal charges regarding an "overt act in furthering of the conspiracy" and an "act of racketeering" to advance gang interests.
The nearly 90-page indictment charges both Williams and another Georgia rapper, Gunna, with gang-related crimes, including more than 25 others who have allegedly participated in YSL gang activity.
Williams was hit with seven new felony charges Wednesday under what is a second case - for now: A hearing this week revealed that these charges were added after a search of Young Thug's home after his arrest on Monday. The case could be folded into the RICO indictment, 11Alive's legal analysis Page Pate said.
When his lawyer previously asked the judge for bond, they said that Williams was a flight risk. His attorney said he has substantial ties to the Atlanta area and that there is "not a scintilla of evidence" that he "has done anything to try to obstruct justice or try to hinder people from turning themselves in or being arrested."
RELATED: Young Thug faces 7 new felony charges outside RICO case, denied bond | New details in hearing
His lawyer later asked the judge to reconsider bond, but he cited the risk of committing additional felonies and said "he has a lot of support outside the state of Georgia, it might be hard to get him back to the state."
As for the charges Williams faces, several are related to social media posts, with references to "YSL" or "Slime" and alleged gang signs or captions indicating gang membership.
Many of the charges are related to Young Thug's rap lyrics. Several of his songs are used as evidence in the indictment as an "overt act in furtherance of the conspiracy.
For now, the rapper is being held in a metro Atlanta jail without bond.


…Proposed law seeks to criminalize arbitrary billing system in Nigeria
From LEKAN BAKARE, Ilorin
The Kwara State House of Assembly in North-Central Nigeria, has urged the National Assembly, to expedite action on the passage of a bill criminalising arbitrary billing system in the country.
The House made the call in its Thursday’s sitting, while considering a report titled “Total Shut Down of Electricity Supply in Offa and Some parts of Oyun Local Government Area of the State”.
The Speaker, Dr. Ali Ahmad, while reading the resolutions of the House, on the report presented by the Chairman, House Committee on Energy, Works and Transport, Hon. Mathew Babaoye, expressed confidence that the passage of the Bill, would go along way to curb sharp practices in the energy sector.
Dr. Ahmad said that unless there was a political will to address the problems in the sector, the challenges bedevilling the nation would persist as the buyers of the nation’s energy Companies were not willing to invest in the sector.
The House urged Ibadan Electricity Distribution Company to always ensure that estimated billings given to consumers in Offa and its environs commensurate with the power supply to the community.
The Legislature, which appealed to leaders of Offa Community, not to quit IBEDC service, urged IBEDC to always observe regular maintenance of its equipment for better service delivery.
The House equally enjoined the state government to direct the Ministry of Energy to liaise with IBEDC head office in opening business hub in Offa, to ensure accessibility.
Earlier, the Chairman of the Committee, Hon. Mathew Babaoye, had observed among other things, that there were arbitrary billings for consumers in Offa, while power supply, to the community, was only 4 to 5 hours per day,pointing out that the problem had been lingering for long.
Meanwhile, the House Leader, Hon. Hassan Oyeleke has on behalf of the people of Offa,commended the House for its prompt response to the lingering problem,saying that its prompt response had restored power supply to the area.

trparky Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 I have a Corsair Flash Voyager 16GB USB 3.0 (Model CMFVYGT3A-16GB) USB Flash Drive that was bought on November 3, 2012 from Amazon.com. According to the tech specs for this particular USB Flash Drive I should have a write speed of 45 MB/s but according to Crystal Disk Mark I'm not seeing anywhere near those speeds. I'm not even seeing those kinds of speeds in normal every day usage. I have attached a screenshot of the Crystal Disk Mark benchmark test that I ran on the USB Flash Drive. As you can see, I'm getting 10 MB/s on Sequential tests, 1.5 MB/s on 512K tests, and absolutely abysmal results on the 4K and 4Q QD32 tests. What can I do about this? The only reason why I opened a new thread about this particular issue is that I think I may have a different device than what's talked about in http://forum.corsair.com/forums/showthread.php?t=120540. It seems like it may be the same issue but that thread's talking about a 32 GB model, I have a 16 GB model. That and the fact that that thread mentioned "Turbo" and "Turbo" isn't in the my product's name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LifeNews.com reports that writing for the majority, Justice Samuel Alito said “The Supreme Court holds govt can’t require closely held corps w/ religious owners to provide contraception coverage.”
The decision reads, “HHS’s contraception mandate substantially burdens the exercise of religion.”
For the first time, the justices have ruled that for-profit businesses can hold and practice their religious views under federal law. Hobby Lobby had objected to the Obamacare requirement to provide contraceptives for women.
The Blaze reports that "Justice Anthony Kennedy noted that the government could pay for this coverage if it wants to make it available, but cannot compel a company to do so."
In case you haven't been following the case, The Wall Street Journal has 5 Things About the Supreme Court Contraception Cases, noting that this decision comes 23 months after the first challenges to the contraceptive requirement.
Chelsen Vicari, Evangelical Action Director for the Institute on Religion and Democracy said in a press release,
Evangelicals everywhere should rejoice at the U.S. Supreme Court's decision to uphold American citizens' religious freedoms. Let this be a good reminder to all of us, that we must uphold a strong public witness for Christ and never allow our religious freedom to become gagged and bound in our sanctuaries.
In their final ruling for this term, the Supreme Court ruled, again 5-4, that that public sector unions cannot collect fees from home health care workers who don't want to be part of a union. [FOX News]

Cancer, multimorbidity and risk of death in the pandemic
19 April 2021
Analysis of urgent referrals for cancer diagnosis data from eight UK hospitals alongside death records from the Office for National Statistics were used to examine the impact of COVID-19 on the prognosis of cancer patients.
Share this page
The study highlighted the additional health consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic, estimating that there could be approximately 18,000 additional COVID-19 related deaths in cancer patients within the next 1-year period. Additionally, the study suggested that this number could be as great at 36,000 additional deaths. The study indicated that excess deaths would be a consequence of cancer sufferers contracting COVID-19, but also because of diagnosis or treatment being delayed.
A number of outlets featured the study outcomes including BBC Panorama’s ‘Britain’s Cancer Crisis’, the Independent’s ‘Cancer is the other ‘big C’ we can’t afford to push aside’ and Macmillian Cancer Support’s ‘The Forgotten ‘C’? The impact of Covid-19 on cancer care’.
The work was includedin SAGE priorities during the pandemic and informed several policy changes including the early focus on ‘indirect’ deaths, the weekly reporting of excess deaths by the Office for National Statistics, and approaches to understanding vulnerable patients.
Media interest led to a noticeable shift in national policy which is likely to positively impact the outcomes for cancer patients during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic:
‘Since we published our work in April, the NHS has released guidance urging the public to seek help for cancer symptoms,’ said Dr Alvina Lai, HDR UK associated researcher. ‘From our data, we can see that urgent refers for cancer diagnosis have gone up since we published our study.’

In The Matter of PETITION FOR MODIFICATION
Company Henderson Mine
I.D. No. 05-00790
Docket No. 30CFR Granted Finalized
M-78-064-M § 57.19-22 2/28/1979 3/30/1979
PROPOSED DECISION AND ORDER TO REVOKE
On February 28, 1979, the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) granted a petition for modification to the Climax Molybdenum Company, Henderson Mine regarding an alternative method of compliance with § 57.19-22. In 1985, this standard was re-codified to the current§ 57.19026 Drum end attachment.
On May 21, 2019, Petitioner requested withdrawal of the petition, alleging that the hoist drum rope attachment at the mine is compliant with the standard. On July 22, 2019, MSHA conducted an inspection at the mine to determine the status of this petition with the following findings:
1. Petitioner claims compliance with § 57.19026(3), as it relates to the rope attachment to the hoist drum, and that the petition is no longer needed.
2. Photos were taken of the pillow block connections and the slippage indicators on the end of the hoist ropes inside the drums. Connections appeared tight/solid.
3. June 20, 2018, report from the manufacturer's inspection of the hoist indicated the rope attachments at the drum are acceptable.
4. July 19, 2019, report from the manufacturer's inspection of the hoist indicated the rope attachments at the drum are acceptable.
Based on this site investigation and equipment manufacturer's hoist inspections, the drum end attachments are in compliance with the standard, and a modification of 30 C.F.R. § 57.19026 at the Climax Molybdenum Company's Henderson Mine is no longer warranted.
Therefore, pursuant to the authority delegated by the Secretary of Labor to the Administrator for Mine Safety and Health Enforcement and pursuant to Section 101(c) of the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977, 30 U.S.C. Section 811(c), the modification as applied to the referenced mine is hereby:
Pursuant to 30 C.F.R. § 44.52, revocation of the granted modification will become final 30 days after service of this Proposed Decision and Order to Revoke unless a hearing is requested on the Decision and Order. Any party to this action desiring a hearing on this matter must file in accordance with 30 C.F.R. § 44.14, within 30 days. The request for hearing must be filed with the Administrator for Mine Safety and Health Enforcement, 201 12th Street South, Suite 401, Arlington, Virginia 22202.
If a hearing is requested, the request shall contain a concise summary of position on the issues of fact or law desired to be raised by the party requesting the hearing, including
specific objections to the Proposed Decision and Order. A party other than the petitioner who has requested a hearing shall also comment upon all issues of fact or law presented in the petition. Any party to this action requesting a hearing may indicate a desired hearing site. If no request for a hearing is filed within 30 days after service thereof, the order to revoke will become final.
Timothy R. Watkins

CERTIFICATE OF SERVICE
I hereby certify that a copy of this Proposed Decision and Order was served personally or mailed, postage prepaid, this 15th day of January, 2020.

Unintentional weight loss in horses
Unintentional weight loss in horses is frustrating to both owners and veterinarians, especially when the horse is still eating well. Numerous causes are possible but often difficult to pinpoint. Due to the lack of descriptive information on this condition, a group of Irish researchers recently set out to establish a link between clinical findings and outcome (survival vs. nonsurvival) of horses.
“Even when establishing that a horse’s appetite is normal, there are management conditions to consider; these need to be ruled out before jumping to disease conditions,” relayed researcher Lisa Katz, DVM, MS, PhD, DipACVIM, DipECEIM, MRCVS, a lecturer in the School of Veterinary Medicine at University College Dublin (UCD).
In their retrospective study, Katz and colleagues evaluated medical records from 40 horses presented to the UCD Veterinary Teaching Hospital between 2002 and 2011 for investigation due to weight loss despite a good appetite.
Sixty percent of evaluated cases received a definitive diagnosis (nine through post mortem evaluation), while the remaining 40 percent were classified as idiopathic (of unknown cause) weight loss. Of the cases with definitive causes, the team reported that “the mechanisms of weight loss were predominately inadequate absorption/increased loss of nutrients (due to conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease or intestinal lymphosarcoma) followed by increased nutritional utilization (due to infection).”
The researchers noted that gender, age, breed, and disease duration were not associated with outcome. However, they did find three factors associated with nonsurvival:
•Poor body condition score (BCS)
•Low blood protein and
•Low levels of albumin (a specific protein in blood plasma).
The team suggested that albumin could be “a potentially more reliable prognostic indicator for survival since total protein is made up of multiple components.”
These findings led researchers to conclude that, “BCS in conjunction with albumin concentration can possibly be used as a prognostic indicator for survival for horses with weight loss despite a good appetite.”
Katz recommends that owners of horses experiencing weight loss, “speak with a veterinarian as soon as (they) notice a problem, rather than hoping it will resolve itself. Conditions such as management issues or parasitism have the most favorable prognosis, but other conditions may have better outcomes if caught and treated early.”
The study, “A retrospective study of horses investigated for weight loss despite a good appetite (2002-2011),” will appear in an upcoming issue of the Equine Veterinary Journal. The abstract is available online. F

I started a trial position in GAN after their latest earnings call. Some highlights. I would suggest reading or listening to the call.
we delivered 64% year-on-year revenue growth, excluding one-off revenue items last year, with the largest part of our revenue, principally derived from U.S. Internet Gambling, growing a phenomenal 108% year-on-year on the back of $142 million in gross operator revenue. We beat consensus adjusted EBITDA for the quarter and are now delivering on the promise of exclusive growth through the rest of the year.
our balance sheet carries nearly $62 million and is debt-free.
there has been significant continued execution in incremental new client acquisition with binding term sheets executed for the deployment of simulated gaming in; New Mexico, Colorado, Indiana and Mississippi.
For real money Internet gambling, we’ve reached an agreement in principle with a Tier-1 client that is looking to deploy our game stack technology in new addressable states such as Illinois, Tennessee, as well as Michigan and other states in which GAN offers considerable existing operating experience, such as New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Indiana.
Even sports betting, which we had assumed would fall by 80% in the months of April and May, has been substantially ahead of our expectations as we have experienced Super Bowl-esque spikes of activity
we’ve seen significant continued engagement by new casino operator groups seeking to move online now with simulated gaming, as well as continued legislative action in states we anticipate will legislate real money Internet sports betting, such as Ohio, where GAN has already forged a partnership with the leading retail casino operator, Jack Entertainment.
In planning for a post-COVID industry environment, we are investing in our people, expanding our bench and running fast to create the burstable engineering resources required to deploy game stack for existing and new clients.
So, we believe that the Tier 1 opportunity that we referred to is, at maturity you’re looking at $300 million to $400 million in gross operated revenue annually. This is a very large retail and also online gambling enterprise. It’s been a multi-month dialogue to reach the point we did yesterday with the execution of preliminary documents, and we will, of course, update the market in full with both identity and scope and expectations, as and when we execute definitive agreements. So, thank you for your
We set up and expanded in Las Vegas on the engineering front very successfully. We found a very thick vein of strong, technically, highly sophisticated individuals who are putting their thumbs at home and who’ve been very happy to come on board the GAN rocket ship. So, that’s been extremely successful and characterized as and we foresee more highly specialized engineers coming or in Las Vegas before the end of this quarter, but will largely be completed with that by the time we get into the end of Q3

I ran for 8 minutes without stopping. It was awesome. This was at the end of my run. I started with just running for 3 minutes at a time and then walking for 2 minutes in between. I did this then entire run until I got to the end. Then I ran and told myself I was going to go 4 minutes. Then when I got to 4 I told myself 5 and then 6 and then 7 and then I was almost to 3.1 miles so I decided to just finish my run. I am so proud of myself. This made my day. My knees were telling me to stop but I didn’t listen. I kept going. I can’t believe I did it.
The start of my run was rough. I wasnt even sure I would make it through the whole run and then I do the best I have ever done. I ran 3.1 miles in 42:52 – under 43 minutes – not by much but still under and when your running a 5k every second counts. One day I will run a full 5K straight through. One day! But I feel it getting closer.
Lately I have been watching a movie while I run and today I was watching Mama Mia. LOL This is a great movie to run to. Maybe that helped contribute to my great run. 🙂 Love that movie.
Hope everyone has a great day!


Top athletes return for half marathon
Such has been the craze for the Airtel Delhi Half Marathon that the top three male finishers from the last edition decided to return again and compete, reports Moonmoon Ghosh.india Updated: Oct 27, 2009 23:30 IST
Such has been the craze for the Airtel Delhi Half Marathon that the top three male finishers from the last edition decided to return again and compete. With the International Association of Athletics Federation (IAAF) having granted it the prestigious 'Gold Label' status, the event is now the richest of its kind in the world and will offer a total prize money of US$ 210,000 (Rs 98.4 lakh).
More than 100 elite athletes will be running the half-marathon (21 kms), the main feature of the entire event that will also comprise the Great Delhi Run (7 kms), senior citizens' run (4.3 kms) and the wheelchair event (4.3 kms).
Hugh Jones, technical director of the marathon, said, "Interest in participation has been so tremendous that all the top three male finishers are back again this year." Ethiopian Deriba Merga, who set a record of 59.15 minutes, will be back to defend his title.
The Indian athletes will be looking forward to lowering Sandeep Kumar's mark of 64.48 minutes that was also set last year. Jones described it as "an achievement" to have attained the Gold Label status. "We are a young event, merely into our fifth year. The race is now established," he said.
