JEJU ISLAND, South Korea, Oct. 15 (UPI) -- As the few living survivors of a South Korean government crackdown that killed as many as 30,000 are clearing their names 70 years later, many are telling their stories for the first time.
They say millions in reparations can't erase a lifetime of stigma.
Yang Geun-bang, now 85, was among some 2,500 people wrongly convicted of insurrection during the Jeju Massacre. On Aug. 21, he and 17 other survivors were awarded a total of $4.4 million for their wrongful imprisonment decades earlier.
After being released from prison, the stigma forced Yang Geun-bang to move to the mainland for the next 20 years.
"As a political criminal, no one treated me like a human," he told UPI in a recent interview, "especially on Jeju."
At 16, Yang was the youngest of 21 inmates jailed in a 35-square-foot cell at Incheon prison near Seoul. Their food was scant and their water unsanitary. Many were sick and beaten. Within a year, nine of them died.
"There were three people from my village in the same prison with me and one person died because of disease, and after my friend's death, I told myself that I had to survive and go back to my hometown. And even though my brothers and friends were dead, I had to survive," he said. "That was my motivation."
Park Dong-su, 86, who was arrested in November 1948 and sentenced on the same day as Yang to seven years in prison, said the current court cases are about clearing their names.
"I didn't submit to the retrial for financial compensation," Park told UPI. "Restoring our defamation is the top priority for us. I didn't want to get the reimbursement. The money is not important. Righting the defamation is what's important."
Jeju April 3rd Incident
Now a popular tourist destination, Jeju Island was submerged in chaos from 1947 to 1954 when the newly formed South Korean government, backed by the United States, launched a violent crackdown in the name of suppressing a so-called communist rebellion.
On March 1, 1947, police opened fire on a crowd protesting the upcoming general election and celebrating national Independence Movement Day near Jeju City. Six people were killed and six others were injured, inflaming anger toward police, many of whom either collaborated with the Japanese during their occupation of the Korean Peninsula or had been recently sent from the mainland.
That anger culminated in a predawn attack on a dozen of the island's police stations by 350 leftist guerrillas on April 3, 1948, the date from which the massacre derives its Korean name -- the Jeju April 3rd Incident, or 4.3.
The worst of the killing began in the fall of 1948 when the South Korean military prohibited access further inland than 3 miles from the coast as the rebels were believed to be hiding in the island's mountains. "The Jeju 4.3 Incident Investigation Report," the government's findings on the massacre published in 2003, quotes the declaration, printed in a national newspaper, warning that anyone who defied the quarantine would be "recognized as rioters and be shot to death."
South Korea's first president and hard-line anti-communist Syngman Rhee, whose election that year was essentially boycotted by the residents of Jeju in opposition to the bifurcation of the peninsula, declared martial law on the island a month after the quarantine was enacted, handing control over Jeju to the military.
The military executed a scorched-earth policy that razed hundreds of villages and tens of thousands of homes, most by the end of 1949, as police, military and an extremist right-wing militia ferreted out so-called communists and their sympathizers while slaughtering common citizens along the way.
Accused of being a rebel
In the spring of 1949, Yang was having dinner with his older brother, sister-in-law and a cousin at his home in Waheul Village, southeast of Jeju City in the quarantine zone, when counter-insurgency forces stormed the house, jutting gun barrels through the windows.
His older brother ran and was shot to death before he had taken 10 strides. His cousin and his sister-in-law were also killed.
Yang was shot in the right thigh as he escaped to a nearby village.
Alone, hungry and wounded with nowhere to go, Yang eventually turned himself over to the police, who beat him and tortured him with electric shocks, accusing him of being a rebel who either participated in the April 3 attack or was affiliated with the group that did.
Yang was convicted by court-martial and sentenced to seven years in prison for insurrection.
When he was in prison, he thought he'd never leave and once released, he thought he'd forever be seen as a criminal.
"I was told I was a criminal by the court, so I couldn't think of being innocent," he said.
Justice and reparations
In January, Yang won vindication -- the Jeju District Court acquitted him, along with 17 other survivors. On Aug. 21, they were awarded damages.
In its decision, the court said their convictions were invalid "because of the breach of due process of law."
Yang Dong-yoon, president of the Jeju 4.3 People's Solidarity organization, which has been conducting research on Jeju Massacre prisoners since 2013, said the trials were illegal as the accused were sentenced without knowing their crimes, without representation and without a legal framework as Rhee's declaration of martial law was also unlawful.
The government report on the massacre supports Yang Dong-yoon's claim, stating that it's still unclear "whether the strong repressive operation carried out under martial law was justifiable and whether martial law was legal."
Some 2,530 Jeju Islanders were convicted in mass during those courts-martial between 1948 and 1949, with 384 people sentenced to death and 305 people given life imprisonment, according to the government's report.
"The judgment was inappropriate," Yang Dong-yoon said. "The judge called the arrested person's name and told them they were sentenced for one or five or even 10 years. They were imprisoned for no reason and without knowing what their crimes were."
'I never had a trial'
According to a summary of Yang Geun-bang's testimony submitted to the court during the retrial as evidence, he said he wasn't informed of his sentence until arriving at Incheon prison, some 275 miles by boat from Jeju.
"I told a prison guard that I never had a trial and he said, 'You were sent here by a trial by document,'" Yang Geun-bang said.
Oh Hee-chun, one of Jeju's famed haenyeo, or female divers, was arrested in October 1948 on suspicion of being a member of the island's branch of the Workers' Party of South Korea.
She said she was deceived into adding her name to the communist party's registry believing she was putting her name to a list of haenyeo wanting to move to the mainland to work.
Oh said she doesn't remember a trial, only that someone called her name and said she was sentenced to one year in prison.
She was 16 then, imprisoned for 10 months. But the consequences lasted decades.
"After prison, it was worse," Oh told UPI, adding that no one in Jeju specifically confronted her about her past "but I could feel it."
No one wanted to marry her, she said, but as the first-born daughter it was her responsibility to start a family "and I married a man I didn't like."
"In prison, we were all treated the same but in society, I was unconfident and couldn't say what I wanted to say," she said.
In 2000, following decades of activism by Jeju residents, the South Korean government passed the Jeju 4.3 Special Law that spearheaded a formal investigation into the massacre that became the government report. Along with uncovering the island's buried history, the law aimed to remove shame from the victims and their families who had been tarnished by decades of slanderous claims of being communists and rebels that prevented many from revealing their trauma.
"Everyone is free to testify about the Jeju 4.3 Incident," the law states. "No victims will hold an unfavorable disposition for being the victims or the bereaved of the Jeju 4.3 Incident."
Oh, now 86, kept her imprisonment a secret from everyone, even her children until she was forced last year to reveal the truth because of the court case.
Now she regrets not having told others her story as her memory is fading.
"I could have talked more so that I could have regained my honor," she said in a summary of her court testimony. "Now I have a chance to talk about that, but now I can't talk about it because I can't remember."
The ramifications of being labeled a criminal go beyond the social, Yang Dong-yoon said, adding that it made it difficult for the survivors to acquire decent-paying jobs, barred their children from government positions and their sons from fulfilling their mandatory military service.
Even living in Paju, near the border with North Korea, about as far away from Jeju as one could get on the southern half of the peninsula, Yang Geun-bang's criminal record followed him.
"I couldn't get a job, so whenever I opened a business a cop always made something up so I'd go bankrupt," Yang said, according to his testimony summary. "My three sons couldn't do their military service, so they couldn't get jobs. My first son finally got a good job ... but cops kept coming to see him so he was fired."
Reversing the defamation
Yang Dong-yoon said it took courage for the survivors to come forward in their 80s to challenge their decades-old convictions. And he said they did not do it for the compensation but to right history's wrongs.
Clearing their names is just the beginning, Yang Dong-yoon said.
Later this month, the recently exonerated prisoners are submitting a new lawsuit seeking compensation from the central government for the mental and physical anguish they experienced, not just while in jail but for what they suffered their whole lives afterward.
Yang Dong-yoon said their courage has persuaded 11 more former prisoners to come forward, and eight of them plan to make a request next week for a retrial in order to challenge their decades-old convictions in court.
When he started conducting research into former prisoners of the Jeju Massacre, they were able to find 40 who were still alive.
Since then, many have died, including two who were involved in the recent exoneration lawsuit. Now, there are only 27.
But there could be more, Yang Dong-yoon said.
Once these court cases are completed, his organization will work to annul all prison sentences imposed under martial law -- to the living and the dead.
"This is not only their problem," Yang Dong-yoon said, referring to the exonerated former prisoners. "There are about 25,000 to 30,000 victims of the Jeju April 3rd Massacre and it is Jeju's history so all Jeju citizens wish and hope to make things right and to restore their honor."

Ross County's Orhan Mustafi faces month on sidelines with broken toe
Ross County's Orhan Mustafi will be out for up to a month after suffering a broken toe.
Last Updated: 19/09/13 3:44pm
The on-loan Grasshopper Zurich striker, whose deal ends in January, suffered the injury during the 4-2 Scottish Premiership defeat by Dundee United on Sunday.
County boss Derek Adams, whose team host Hearts on Saturday, said: "It's a big blow because Orhan is a strong player and is technically very good.
"We are going to miss him for about three to four weeks."
Mustafi has made five appearances for County this season, but made just one start - in the 3-1 league defeat to Partick Thistle at Victoria Park in August.

How do you get used to wearing dentures?
Chew up and down, rather than from side to side.
Cut your food into small pieces and eat slowly.
Chew on both sides of your mouth at the same time.
Avoid bringing the lower front denture teeth forward against the upper front denture teeth..
How do you fix poor fitting dentures?
Certainly the best fix for poorly fitting dentures is adding stabilizing dental implants. This works because it both holds the denture in place and stabilizes the bone. What’s more, implants slow the rate that bone changes. In addition, implants absorb force and reduce pressure on the gums.
Can you wear dentures 24 7?
You should never wear your dentures 24 hours a day without preforming proper oral hygiene. Dentures should be cleaned at night and stored in water during the night.
Do u lose weight after getting dentures?
And you might eat less overall. Because of these changes to eating, many denture wearers may experience weight gain, weight loss, and, sometimes, malnutrition. But you can still have a healthy diet with dentures.
Why do dentures shorten your life?
Dentures put wearers at risk of malnutrition because they cause wearers to avoid healthy foods which are difficult to chew, a major study has shown. … In both cases, tooth loss and wearing dentures was associated with joint and muscle frailty, which can leave people at risk of bone breakages and falls.
What happens if you don’t wear your dentures all the time?
Not wearing them regularly Dentures are designed to be worn, so make sure you wear them regularly. If you don’t, then your dentures could dry out and deform (especially if they’re not soaked in water when you aren’t wearing them).
What is good for sore gums from dentures?
What works for gum pain?Saltwater rinse. Warm 1 cup of water on the stove (not to boiling — just warm) and pour into a cool glass. … Compress. Try either a hot or cold compress to help reduce pain. … Herbal poultice. … Homemade dental spray. … Teabags. … Oral anesthetic gels. … Over-the-counter pain killers.
What not to eat with false teeth?
Foods to Avoid with DenturesSticky foods. Sticky substances can move your dentures out of place, allowing food to get underneath the dentures and irritate your gums. … Foods with small but stubborn pieces. … Hard foods. … Tough meats.
How long does it take to get used to wearing dentures?
about 30 daysAs a general rule of thumb, dental professionals are likely to tell you that adjusting to new dentures takes about 30 days, on average. You might not be keen to wait this long, but you need to be careful how quickly you try to get back to normal.
Will I ever get used to my dentures?
Depending on the type of denture (half or full), it may take a while to get adapted to wearing them. They also adjust differently since your gum line changes. Ensure you take every prescribed medication as the adjustments occur so that you can lessen the discomfort that may arise with the transition.
How do you break in new dentures?
Day 1: Start by eating soft foods like mashed potatoes, puddings, and ice cream that are gentle on your gums. Many first-time denture wearers say eating soft foods that are gentle on your gums and teeth make the adjustment to dentures easier.
Why are my dentures so uncomfortable?
It’s completely normal to experience gum pain or discomfort in the first few weeks of wearing new dentures. … This is likely the result of your dentures rubbing against your gums or not fitting properly. Here are a few things you can try to help relieve your denture pain and live more comfortably.
How does it feel to have dentures?
Once the dentures have been fitted, it will feel strange to have them in your mouth. For the first one or two days, dentures will feel too heavy or large in your mouth. While this is a normal feeling, shortly, your tongue, mouth, and facial muscles will get adapted to the additions.
How do you know if your dentures fit right?
Fit Changes Your top dentures should suction smoothly to your gums. Your bottom dentures float above your gums, but they should stay in your mouth easily. And partial dentures should stay in line with your natural teeth without significant movement.
How do you get rid of gag reflex with dentures?
Using a throat spray to numb the back of your mouth will help control gagging until you get used to your dentures. Brushing the area of your tongue that triggers the gag reflex helps to desensitize you from choking. If the problem persists, your dentist may need to trim your dentures.
How can I make dentures more comfortable?
Tips For Making Your Dentures Comfortable and Long-LivedHave realistic expectations. Like braces, your dentures will feel a bit odd first. … Choose your denture adhesive. … Be careful when handling your dentures. … Give your mouth a break. … Clean your dentures daily. … Watch for changes in fit. … Avoid difficult-to-eat foods. … Never use too-hot water on dentures.
How long does it take for gums to heal after dentures?
In the First 2 Weeks Gum tissue contracts as it heals. For this reason, you may need to visit our office several times so your full or partial dentures fit comfortably. If you experience dental discomfort or pain while eating, we recommend supplementing meals with Ensure or another protein-rich drink.
What are the most comfortable dentures?
Flexible dentures are most comfortable because it hugs the contours of the gum and it does not cause bruises to the gum and can last longer than other types of dentures. You also need to consider the location of the missing teeth.

Actress Lucy Liu received recognition for her humanitarian work last Saturday, during the Harvard Foundation’s annual diversity celebration called Cultural Rhythms.
The event, which was held at Harvard University’s Sanders Theater in Cambridge, featured other on-campus student organizations, which gave regional performances of their respective cultures.
Harvard University’s Dean of Admissions, William R. Fitzsimmons went on stage to present the 2016 Artist of the Year Award to Lucy Liu. In the introduction, Fitzsimmons enumerated the Kill Bill star’s various accomplishments, which include being a director, producer, visual artist, and philanthropist.
Lucy Liu is Honored During Harvard’s ‘Cultural Rhythms’ Event
The 47-year-old actress was born in Queens, New York to immigrant parents who hailed from Beijing and Shanghai. She attended the Stuyvesant High School, which is one of the top high schools in the country, with an admissions rate lower than Harvard. She went on to earn a degree in Asian languages and cultures from the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor.
She is most well-known for her acting work in both television and film. Her breakthrough role was Ling Woo, the cold and vicious Chinese-American lawyer in the Fox comedy-drama Ally McBeal. She was also cast as one of the three lead characters in the film Charlie’s Angels alongside Cameron Diaz and Drew Barrymore. In 2003, she appeared O-Ren Ishii in Quentin Tarantino’s 2003 martial parts film Kill Bill.

Dale Crover, the revered drummer of seminal rock band, the Melvins, has shared a second track from his forthcoming album, Rat-A-Tat-Tat! (Jan. 15, Joyful Noise Recordings), debuting a video for “I Can’t Help You There” via Flood Magazine (https://floodmagazine.com/82799/dale-crover-i-cant-help-you-there-video-premiere/).
“I enlisted Toshi Kasai and Alicia DiGiovanni to help direct, film and edit,” explains Crover. “I gave them the basic ideas I had and they ran with them. Inspiration came from ‘One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest,’ The Cramps’ 1978 performance at Napa State Mental Hospital, and the creepy face mask of LA Dodger Kiké Hernández.”
The clip, which continues Crover’s tributes to illustrious moments in video history (see his 2017 nod to Paul McCartney here), was directed by Crover and Toshi Kasai under the Deaf Nephews moniker. Kasai, a longtime recording partner to Crover and the Melvins, said: “It’s my first time directing a video, the result being like the music I produce, timeless entertainment!” Cinematographer Alicia DiGiovanni added: “The camera delighted in the playfulness of all of the animated characters, what a brilliant experience.”

Packing crates, carpet scraps, and colored tiles make creative toys
Junk can be fun for kids to play with. In fact, lots of things that stores and shops throw out can give hours of delight to children. And the bonus is that these toys are free.
Some tips on where to find usable discards are available from the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare in a publication called "Beautiful Junk."
Some ideas for creating children's beautiful junk:
Lumber companies give away wood scraps that are suitable for carpentry and art kids can dream up.
Grocery stores are wonderful sources of boxes of every size. Try a large box for a puppet theater, a post office, or store. Cardboard soft-drink cartons are excellent for holding paint containers, and they help prevent spilling at the table.
The telephone company has empty cable spools that are good additions to outside play areas. Small ones make child-sized tables. The publication recommends calling the telephone company to put your name on the waiting list.
Old automobile tires can make playground swings, and old tractor tires become sandboxes. They are found at gas stations or garages.
Print shops have assorted sizes of scrap paper. Colored cardboard tickets, letter sheets, and all sorts of paper for artistic venture are available.
Overseas moving companies will sometimes part with a large, very well-built packing crate, just for the cost of transportation.They make excellent playhouses.
Tile stores frequently have broken patterns of mosaic tile available for a small charge. Children enjoy matching, counting, and creating with these colorful squares.
Carpet scraps and samples make room- size rugs for doll houses. Paint and wallpaper stores offer possibilities also. Use paint color cards for collages and sheets from old wallpaper books for easel painting.

I was hoping you had some pics from the Laura Lee Owens
session you did with Gimble back in November 1975 that had an all-star cast of swing musicians: Gimble on Fiddle and Electric Mandolin, Eldon Shamblin on Electric Guitar, Tiny Moore on Electric Mandolin, Monte Mountjoy on drums, Bob Moore on Upright Bass, Bill Joor on Trumpet and a Piano player whose identity I'm not sure of. Gimble sent me a tape of the session and the in-studio jam that occured after (Don't think the piano is on the jam session). What a jam that was!! I love it! Wish I had some photos to go with this. Tunes like 'Out Of Nowhere', 'Brown Skin Gal', 'Fat Boy Rag', 'The Preacher', 'Wednesday Night Waltz' and another bit of another waltz that isn't complete. Wish I had more of this session. Were there any other tunes?

The controversial federal Reading First program would be eliminated under a fiscal 2009 spending measure approved unanimously today by a House Appropriations subcommittee.
In explaining the decision to zero out the program, Rep. David R. Obey, D-Wis., the chairman of the House Appropriations Committee, cited the results of a preliminary federal evaluation of Reading First, released May 1, which found that the program has had no impact on students’ reading comprehension.
Reading First “has been plagued with mismanagement, conflicts of interest, and cronyism, as documented by the inspector general,” Rep. Obey said, referring to a series of reports by the U.S. Department of Education’s watchdog that suggested conflicts of interest had occurred among officials and contractors who helped implement the program in its early years.
“Moreover, a scientifically rigorous study released by the Department of Education found that the program has no discernible impact on student reading performance,” Rep. Obey, who is also the chairman of the Appropriations subcommittee that handles education funding, said in reference to the evaluation by the Institute of Education Sciences, an arm of the department.
The interim report by the IES did not cover overall student reading performance.
U.S. Secretary of Education Margaret Spellings said in a statement: “Reading First has done so much to crack the code on how to get kids to read. It would be tragic to cut the nation’s only reading prorogram when so many policymakers and teachers know it’s working to increase achievement.”
Rep. James Walsh of New York, the top Republican on the education spending subcommittee, said that Rep. Obey’s description of the findings of the study “doesn’t track with my experience” of the Reading First program. Schools around his Syracuse, N.Y., congressional district reported that the program had raised student achievement “very, very quickly,” he said.
Previous federal surveys of state and local officials have indicated that the program has led to changes in classroom practices and improved student test scores in many places.
The Reading First program was created as part of the No Child Left Behind Act in 2002. Reading First state grants were funded at about $1 billion a year annually until last December, when lawmakers, citing the allegations of mismanagement, slashed it to $393 million for fiscal 2008.
President Bush’s budget request for fiscal 2009, which begins Oct. 1, proposes to restore the funding to $1 billion.
Alan E. Farstrup, the executive director of the International Reading Association, based in Newark, Del., said his organization agreed with the committee’s conclusions about the mismanagement of the program, but said he would encourage lawmakers not to “throw the baby out with the bathwater.”
Congress should consider funding professional development and high-quality reading programs that are more “broad-based” than many of the programs financed under Reading First, relying on input from classroom teachers, he said.
Michael J. Petrilli, a vice president at the Thomas B. Fordham Institute, based in Washington, said the Reading First program as it is operating now “seems to be making a difference.”
“Chairman Obey is playing politics with the lives of millions of children,” said Mr. Petrilli, who was an Education Department official during President Bush’s first term.
The final report on the Reading First program by IES, expected to be released later this year, may include further analysis of the program’s effectiveness. (“Reading First Doesn’t Help Pupils ‘Get it’,” May 7, 2008.)
Small Increases Elsewhere
The Labor, Health and Human Services, Education, and Related Agencies Subcommittee released few other details today about the fiscal 2009 spending bill that covers education.
A statement from the committee reported that the bill would provide $15.1 billion in Title I grants for low-income children, a $665 million increase over the fiscal 2008 amount. It was unclear, however, whether that number represented only Title I grants for districts, or if it also included the Title I school improvement grants, which are targeted at schools not making adequate yearly progress and were financed at $491 million in fiscal 2008.
And the bill includes a $604 million increase over fiscal 2008 for grants to help states cover the costs of serving students in special education, under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act. That program received $10.95 billion in fiscal 2008.
The measure would also boost federal after-school programs, which are slated for a $281 million cut under President Bush’s budget request. The bill would instead provide a $50 million increase over fiscal 2008.
Mary L. Kusler, the assistant director of governmental relations for the American Association of School Administrators, based in Arlington, Va., called the proposed increases in Title I and IDEA “a good start.”
Separately, the House of Representatives today was expected to take up an emergency fiscal 2008 spending bill to pay for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. The nearly $186.9 billion measure includes beefed-up education benefits for veterans who have served since Sept. 11, 2001, at a cost of $62.8 billion over 11 years.

By the end of World War I, Albert Einstein had become the face of the new science of theoretical physics and had made some powerful enemies. One of those enemies, Nobel Prize winner Philipp Lenard, spent a career trying to discredit him. Their story of conflict, pitting Germany's most widely celebrated Jew against the Nazi scientist who was to become Hitler's chief advisor on physics, had an impact far exceeding what the scientific community felt at the time.

But scientists are still not certain what factors may explain the species' explosive spread into the Gulf of Mexico in 2000 and again this year.
The dynamics of jellyfish invasions are often hard to track, experts say, because of the creatures' complex life cycle.
Most people think of jellyfish only as the gelatinous drifters that biologists call medusae.
But medusae start off as polyps, which are tiny sedentary creatures that attach themselves to hard surfaces such as rocks or ship hulls.
Graham believes that ship traffic is what first brought the Australian spotted jellyfish—in polyp form—to the Gulf of Mexico.
Changing ocean currents and nutrient availability may help trigger the jellyfish blooms, he said. But the Gulf invaders are probably coming from source populations of polyps that have become established nearby.
"It's hard to explain year-to-year variations ... by looking only at the free-floating phase of the life cycle," Graham said. "The numbers and spread of polyps will ultimately control the medusae."
But oceanographer Donald Johnson, of the University of South Mississippi in Ocean Springs, is not so sure nearby polyps are the source of the invasion.
He said that unusual current patterns during the 2000 invasion may have carried drifting jellyfish in from the Caribbean, where a permanent population exists.
"The most recent invasion looks more likely to have also come from the Caribbean, through the Yucatán Straits," Johnson said.
Jellyfish invasions have become an increasingly common phenomenon worldwide. (Related: "Jellyfish Invasion Puts Sting on Europe Beaches" [August 18, 2006].)
Johnson said that while there has been speculation that changing sea temperatures may be involved, a more likely overriding factor is depletion of ocean communities through destructive fishing practices.
Studies have shown that jellyfish sometimes take advantage of resources made available as fish populations decline.
"When the door is left open, you never know who will enter," Johnson said.
Dominance of marine communities by jellyfish changes the flow of energy through food webs, making it harder for depleted fish populations to recover, Graham said.
Normally energy flows upward, as smaller fish are eaten by larger ones. But while jellyfish consume fish eggs and larvae, they are seldom eaten by larger predators.
"We're concerned about the shifts in energy flows in ecosystems towards this so-called trophic dead-end of jellyfish," Graham said.

Answer: Pomegranates can bear from 1 to 4 years after planting. Some varieties do not produce fruit at all, and are used ornamentally. Others do not produce well in cool, coastal areas, preferring the heat and aridity of the desert. Check with your local nursery for a variety that will grow well in your area.

Two CuriosityStream Original productions will be competing for top honors in multiple categories at the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences 38th Annual News & Documentary Emmy® Awards. These are the first Emmy® nominations for CuriosityStream, a leading global documentary streaming service launched by Discovery Communications founder and former chairman John Hendricks just over two years ago.
David Attenborough’s Light on Earth is nominated for Outstanding Nature Documentary as well as Outstanding Cinematography: Documentary. The 4K film has already won international acclaim, including a BAFTA nomination, top honors at the Cannes Corporate Media & TV Awards, and the Grand Helix Award (best in show) at the prestigious Science Media Awards.
In the film, the legendary Sir David Attenborough guides a never-before-seen exploration into the mystery of bioluminescence – how animals produce light of their own. The stunning images were made possible by specially developed low-light color cameras – 4,000 times more sensitive – and a new generation of submersibles to reveal these “living lights” in the soil, on land and in the ocean. David Attenborough’s Light on Earth was produced by CuriosityStream with Ammonite Films and Terra Mater Factual Studios.
CuriosityStream Original production Stephen Hawking’s Favorite Places is nominated for the Emmy® for Outstanding Graphic Design and Art Direction. In this first installment of the series, world-renowned physicist Stephen Hawking pilots his space ship, the SS Hawking, on a fantastic trip through the Universe, zooming from black holes to the Big Bang, from Saturn to Santa Barbara. The cutting-edge CGI effects deliver an immersive personal journey through the cosmos, as Hawking shares his own story of inspiration, curiosity, and perseverance. Stephen Hawking’s Favorite Places was produced for CuriosityStream by Bigger Bang. Episodes 2 and 3 premiere on CuriosityStream in the Fall of 2017.
“The factor that drives every decision we make at CuriosityStream is our mission to bring the most elegantly-produced, informative and entertaining films to documentary fans around the world. Our viewers demand the best in science programming and these two films are some of our most viewed titles. It’s an honor to see them recognized among the other outstanding documentaries available from the word’s best producers,” said Steve Burns, Chief Programming Officer for CuriosityStream.
Both documentaries are available to watch now on CuriosityStream. Sign up for a free trial at CuriosityStream.com.
The 38th Annual News and Documentary Emmy® Awards will be presented on October 5th, 2017, at a ceremony in New York.

The Japan Financial Services Authority (FSA) joins the list of financial institutions that will play a collaborative role in Project Guardian, a digital asset initiative launched by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS). Japan joins HSBC, the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) and other industry leaders through the 2017 Cooperation Framework with Singapore, aimed at fostering FinTech synergy, according to the press release.
Project Guardian, launched by MAS in 2022, aims to test and validate the application of digital technologies such as asset tokenization. It is expected to drive economic growth and improve investment options, as well as encourage collaboration between crypto industry leaders and policy makers. The pilot phase is currently being applied to the fixed income, foreign exchange, and asset and wealth management sectors:
“In this model, all participants interact with a common ledger (…) This allows direct exchange of digital assets without the need for bilateral configurations between organizations or with other networks.”
Additionally, Project Guardian seeks to foster collaboration between industry veterans and policy makers, exploring a diverse range of asset classes and gaining valuable insights for the evolution of digital asset networks.
Leong Sing Chiong, Deputy Managing Director of MAS, highlighted the potential for “greater public-private collaboration with FSA to support global efforts to develop a responsible and innovative digital asset ecosystem.”
Further acknowledging the complexities and risks associated with the rapidly expanding decentralized financial ecosystem, Mamoru Yanase, Deputy Director General of the FSA’s Strategy Development and Management Office, also highlighted the transformative opportunities of blockchain technology. and Web3.
Japan and Singapore revealed the creation of the cooperation framework in 2017 to strengthen fintech collaboration between the two nations.
As part of this, a referral system for fintech companies in each country is set up to expand their reach into the market of the other. Businesses are able to obtain information on the necessary regulatory structures, including licensing requirements to alleviate regulatory ambiguity and overcome barriers to entry.
“The framework also sets out how regulators plan to share and use information about financial services innovation in their respective markets,” according to the press release.

A guy is introduced at a swanky 1930s Hollywood party as a two-time Academy Award winner. “Wow, congratulations,” the town newbie says to him. He replies: “Thank you. You’ve never heard of me — I’m a writer.” Welcome to Café Society.
Here’s a trailer for the latest from writer-director Woody Allen, which opens the Cannes Film Festival tomorrow night. Jesse Eisenberg stars as the fresh-off-the-bus kid looking to make it in the movie industry. He’s “half-bored, half-fascinated,” but he’s got an in that most of his ilk don’t: His uncle (Steve Carell) is an agent, who teams the lad with his assistant (Kristen Stewart). From there, it’s beautiful women, a run-in with thugs, jazz at 2 AM and maybe even irrational love.
Jeannie Berlin, Blake Lively, Parker Posey, Corey Stoll and Ken Stott also star in the film, for which Amazon Studios reportedly paid eight figures. Lionsgate will release Café Society after its Croisette bow, starting a platform rollout on July 15. Take a gander at the trailer and tell us what you think.

We all know this St. Patrick’s Day holiday as celebrating Ireland and Irish heritage. People flock to do the St. Patrick’s Day run, eat at an Irish pub or attend an Irish festival/parade celebrating this wonderful holiday. It is a grand day!
However, many do not know or look into the fact that St. Patrick (387-460) was not actually Irish but a Romano-Briton. Nor do people realize that St. Patrick was not only a Christian missionary, recognized as the patron saint of Ireland or the Apostle of Ireland (Wikipedia) but that he was captured from Wales by Irish raiders when he was only 16 years old and made a slave. After being a slave for 6 years, he escaped and went back to his family. However, after conversion to Christianity and entering the Church, he later became an ordained bishop and went back to Ireland as a missionary. Legend had it that he taught the doctrine of the Holy Trinity via using the three-leaf shamrock green plant as an illustration!
I am always amazed by such a life where such tragedy has bestowed upon someone from another (i.e. slavery here with St. Patrick), and yet, the willingness to go back to the very people that brought so much pain is stronger than that pain. It must take so much forgiveness, compassion, and continued belief in people. We happily salute and celebrate who St. Patrick was and the Irish heritage.

It doesn’t make any difference if you’re a hunter or a fisherman because this time of the year has something for everyone and it’s all good. The brief cool down from near triple digit heat has both hunters and fishermen alike thinking of what’s in store for the coming weeks. The very first hint of hunting season starts with teal and dove season in September and if you look at the calendar that’s not too far off. Hunters of all shapes and sizes flock to the field to take advantage of the first opportunities to get back into the sport they love, the whole episode is like “big kid therapy”. Along the coast we look forward to the arrival of the bluewing teal because they will be the first ducks to visit our area on the annual migration south.
This year, the Texas Parks and Wildlife Commission approved a proposal to set the teal season to run Sept. 10th thru the 25th after the bluewing population reached the 16-day threshold. Federal waterfowl hunting guidelines allow Texas a 16-day teal-only season when the bluewing population index exceeds 4.7 million birds. If the bluewing population is 3.3 million to 4.6 million, current federal guidelines allow Texas a nine-day teal season. The next full moon on Septemeber 10th will usher in big waves of teal into our area and that trend will continue for the next couple of weeks.
Conditions along the Central flyway could not be better for this time of the year as constant rains have made everything to the north of us green and fertile unlike last year. Locally our marshes are in tremendous shape as the big flush of freshwater has certainly sweetened up our marshes and promoted plenty of growth. On a recent pass through some local marshes I noticed several areas that had begun to grow a couple of different types of grass that had not been in there in a
couple of years. The rich fresh water has been a blessing all the way around for everyone except the fishermen in Sabine Lake but that will hopefully change as we get closer to the fall where things in the lake should begin to get back to normal.
Speaking of normal it’s been good to see the populations of shrimp starting to show up in the marshes and bayous. I was running up Black’s Bayou last week and stopped to take advantage of some gulls picking shrimp that had been pushed to the surface by a herd of small trout. The fish we caught were small but there were plenty of them and plenty of shrimp. When we get that first little cold front towards the end of September and the north wind blows all the water out of the marsh Sabine Lake will hopefully go nuts with schooling activity and the fishing will be as hot as the summer has been.
I know that first front seems like a long way off so I guess we will have to pass the time by shooting a few doves as the season opens for the North and Central zones on September 1st. Several hunters I have spoken with recently have
been reporting large numbers of doves in our area which always seems to be the case before opening weekend. Historically we get a huge rain or some goofy storm come through and blows all the birds out, hopefully that’s not the case this year. The coming weeks are full of promise and the seasons will overlap causing sportsmen to make a choice to either hunt or fish, either one will certainly be a winner.

Vodafone Germany detailed plans to boost 5G coverage along shipping lanes, citing benefits for vessel communications and use of sensors to track freight.
The operator noted two thirds of the country’s internal waterways currently had 5G coverage along them, served by infrastructure in 1,400 locations. Of these, 440 were offering standalone connectivity, which Vodafone is branding 5G+.
Vodafone added many other locations were covered by 4G.
As part of an ongoing drive to support businesses and canal users, Vodafone noted a further 700 construction projects along the routes were planned by mid-2023. Of these, more than half will be focused on providing the latest 5G communications technology.
It claimed the expansion would “enable shipping to continue to have access to the fast real-time network in the future”.
Vodafone noted Germany’s government had identified inland waterways as an environmentally friendly way to transport goods compared with common alternatives.
“A barge can transport a tonne of cargo almost four times as far as a truck with the same energy consumption,” the operator added.
Germany’s federal inland waterways network covers 7,476 kilometers, with around 75 per cent being rivers and the remainder canals.

Backlog: Lost Voice Edition
There are few things worse than a tickle in the back of the throat heralding a cold or ailment. One of them is having this feeling while working in a call center. This happened to me just a couple days ago, and now what would ordinarily be a fairly minor cold has left me almost entirely unable to speak. While this may be a blessed relief for many, for me it's a cause of some stress. The LAN party I was going to this weekend? Well, I'm still going, but any yells I produce will be a ragged wheeze. When I get back to work, my hoarse rasping will be almost useless on the phone lines. I sure hope there's some kind of clerical work to be done -- because otherwise I'm hosed.
Anyway, Nick's the only one chiming in this week for our Backlog, but he's written quite a chunk. I'd speak up myself, but it can all be pretty quickly summarized: Broken Age is gorgeous. How did I not play more Left 4 Dead 2?
So, with that boring bit out of the way, let's see what Nick has been up to this past week. -- Spencer Tordoff
Header image: Phone Booths by Kristin Nador
It's been a while! I've been busy making all sorts of significant life choices with a devil-may-care attitude; hope you're all doin' well, too.
I've been taking advantage of the post-holiday lull to catch up on some games that I accrued over the past year but never gave a fair shake to. Here are the ones I think you should pay attention to:
The Swapper came out on PC last year, but somehow I missed it entirely until it came up in some other publications' Game of the Year talks. How the hell a Metroidvania-style puzzle-platformer slipped past me is a mystery for the ages, but now that I've played a few hours of it I feel I can recommend it without reservation. This is a fiendishly brilliant puzzle game that forces you to think about space, movement and physics in ways you haven't before, which is something videogames are uniquely positioned to do better than just about anything else on the planet. No puzzle feels superfluous, and the thrill of exploration and unraveling the game's minimalist (which is not to say superfluous) story is very compelling. I'm not big on regrets, but there's a good chance I would've argued for this game to make our top-ten list last year.
One other thing: it might sound strange to praise the atmosphere as one of the strongest points in a two-dimensional platformer, but The Swapper has a feeling of depth and – a better word escapes me here – volume that you just can't find in many other games.
I also dug into the first couple hours of Double Fine's long-awaited Broken Age, previously known as the Double Fine Adventure Kickstarter campaign. Maybe it's impossible for me to objectively evaluate a deliberate throwback to a genre I hold near and dear, but I think the beautiful and distinct art style, inspired voice acting (sup Elijah) and shrewd puzzles prove that Broken Age is the real deal. I'm taking my time with it – games like this are rare and shouldn't be rushed, in my experience.
What else? I checked out The Wonderful 101, which is a game that I still have no idea how to interpret. It's probably too janky to reproduce here, but I'll keep thinking it over for a future article. I also spent an hour with Bit.trip Presents: Runner 2: Future Legend of Rhythm Alien, which feels like the sort of game I always hoped the team at Gaijin was capable of making but hadn't seen in the original WiiWare Bit.trip games.
I've also been chipping away at NES Remix, Nintendo's under-the-radar mashup of challenges featuring classic NES games. Fifteen bucks is pretty steep for any game like this one, especially a game that's composed entirely of challenges lifted right out of games that are old enough to have followed R.E.M. on tour, but NES Remix is a surprisingly polished and devilishly engrossing experience. I'm at about 70% completion at this point, and I'd be lying if I wasn't dead-set on earning all three stars on every challenge before I put this one to rest. At its best, it's a supremely gratifying test of old-school reflexes – a rarity these days – and if you grew up on the Nintendo Entertainment System, chances are you're gonna find a lot to love in this game.
Finally, I played more Dark Souls because I am a masochist.

THE LATEST NEWS, STORES, PHOTES and LINKS from DC!
- Temporium isn’t your typical over-priced and exclusive boutique and it isn’t an average mom and pop clothing store. Instead, the newest DC fashion marketplace is a pop up boutique that is part clothing store, part hip wi-fi coffee joint and part quirky music lounge. Located in the former R.L. Christian Library, the space highlights local designers and allows them a venue to pawn their goods from home-made jewelry to hipster graphic tees to avant-garde menswear. Each day brings a continued variety of designers and items and on weekends, the boutique and lounge merge allowing for browsing of the racks while DJs spin in the background. Be sure to catch Temporium this weekend as its month long run closes on August 15. Check out temporiumdc.com for more details and read the WashPo article describing their owners.
- Many DC residents have been nearly side-swiped by a rogue bike messenger careening down epic DC hills with their messenger bag swung over their shoulder as they compete for valuable road space with an irrate cab driver. This new DC blog “The Life of a DC Courier and Lindy Hopper” pulls back the curtain to reveal a different perspective on the bike wielding delivery men. The blog includes valuable and humorous insights including DC’s newest and greatest nickname- “The Toilet Bowl.”
- Following last weekend’s metro brawl involving 70 plus DC teens, Washington Post writers spent the night in Chinatown chronicling and observing the lives of its inhabitants from the loiterers to the bored teens to the gun-toting security guards. The vignettes entitled “After the Brawl” are short, but entertaining and revealing. My favorite includes the job description of the Chipotle security guard, whose sole duty includes guarding the soda fountain from teens sneaking lemonade into their free water cups!!

Darren Myers was a longtime member of Crest Cycling Club. Darren joined the club around 1990, which met at Wanstead Leisure Centre for a social chat every Friday night. Members soon got to know his parents and sister, who played badminton at the leisure centre the same evening.
Darren enjoyed racing in all road-based disciplines – solo and team time trials, bunch road racing and cyclo-cross. In recent years he switched clubs to join the Bishops Stortford Cycling Club where he favoured cyclo-cross. He kept up his love of the sport, racing in the East Anglian cyclo cross league, right up until his departure to New Zealand in 2017 with his wife Kim to start a new life over there nearer Kim’s family.
Although Darren enjoyed racing, his real love was exploring new places. He took part in and helped organised many of the club’s group cycling holidays in the UK and Europe. He also introduced several of the club members to his real passion – hill walking. With meticulous organisation he took members on hill walks on the West Highland Way, up Ben Nevis, the Yorkshire Peaks and the Lake District.
He was also an avid solo walker and cyclist, taking on a six-week solo cycle tour, wild camping, through Finland to the Artic Circle during 2017. Darren was an immensely popular member of the Crest, always upbeat in nature, combining a quick wit with a kind smile and generous empathy.
He will be hugely missed by the club and our sincere sympathies go out to his family.

He would be angry because of the project that should annul the legalization of abortion and also because of the shootings and massacres that have recently taken place in the country.8010910730001
“We will not tolerate this type of behavior,” Attorney General Merrick Garland said Wednesday. “Threats of violence against judges strike at the heart of our democracy and we will do everything we can to prevent them and hold those responsible accountable.” 8010910730001Maryland Governor Larry Hogan announced in a statement that there has been “increased security” at the judges’ residences since last month. “I urge the leaders of both parties in Washington to strongly condemn these actions in no uncertain terms.
