Night School Studio announced it’s been added to Netflix’s Instant Queue of storytellers. It’s a pretty big leap for a small indie studio started in 2014 but the team has done a lot to push storytelling since its inception, and not just in terms of what’s possible with video games.
Oxenfree was only released in 2016 but it sent a message loud and clear all around the world. Founded by Sean Krankel and Adam Hines in 2014, Night School Studio was started as a way to continue the duo’s vision of telling unique stories through the magic and imagination of video games. Oxenfree made that very clear with a combination of mechanics that worked in tandem to tighten immersion, storytelling, and the gap between the player and characters on-screen.
Blending gameplay actions with dialogue and stopping the age-old curse of removing control from players while characters are doing “story stuff” helped remove a weird invisible obstacle that had always been there. Something as simple as forcing the player’s attention for a few important moments had seemingly been putting up invisible barriers for decades. And now, Night School Studio can continue to hone their craft and storytelling as a whole with a little help from Netflix.
In a press release, Sean Krankel shared some brief details that help highlight the shared vision between the two entertainment companies. He shares how Netflix and Night School Studio have been talking for months about how their “respective visions” collide at the center “for where we see games, storytelling, and our collective opportunity for positive impact.”
And from what it sounds like, this acquisition very well could just make both companies better at what they already do so well. Krankel provides some comfort for anyone worried about future classes with Night School Studio.
“Night School wants to stretch our narrative and design aspirations across distinctive, original games with heart. Netflix gives film, TV, and now game makers an unprecedented canvas to create and deliver excellent entertainment to millions of people. Our explorations in narrative gameplay and Netflix’s track record of supporting diverse storytellers was such a natural pairing. It felt like both teams came to this conclusion instinctively.”-Sean Krankel
It’s also great news for fans of Night School Studio and the games the company has released so far. Night School Studio was a successful developer before Netflix. The video game community quickly saw how special games like Oxenfree and Afterparty were, and the upcoming Oxenfree II: Lost Signals looks more ambitious and creative than ever.
And now people all over the world will be exposed to Night School Studio. Netflix is one of the biggest entertainment platforms out there, which means a whole lot more people are about to learn about the magic of indie games. This does bend the classification of what kind of developer Night School Studio is, but it’s not the first time we’ve seen a smaller, indie team join up with a bigger company. Double Fine Entertainment and Mojang were both purchased by Microsoft within the last decade and Psychonauts 2 and Minecraft have never been better than ever as a result.
Netflix is already showing its commitment to keeping things good for gamers and Netflix subscribers too. Mike Verdu, Netflix’s VP of Game Development, shared some details on what to expect from Netflix as the streaming giant sharpens its focus on games and game development.
“[Night School Studio’s] commitment to artistic excellence and proven track record make them invaluable partners as we build out the creative capabilities and library of Netflix games together. We’ll continue working with developers around the world and hiring the best talent in the industry to deliver a great collection of exclusive games designed for every kind of gamer and any level of play.”-Mike Verdu
Verdu provided another big detail that should give a sigh of relief for anyone worried about the future of Night School Studio and/or Netflix’s video game future.
“Like our shows and films, these games will all be included as part of your Netflix membership — all with no ads and no in-app purchases. Stay tuned for more.”-Mike Verdu
It will be some time before we start to see the effects of Netflix’s acquisition of Night School Studio but things appear to be off to a good start for both companies and their shared future. Oxenfree II: Lost Signals is currently scheduled to release in late 2021 on Nintendo Switch and Steam. We will have to wait and see if it’s available on Netflix at launch or if that will come later.

He never knew what he wanted to become, and winds of time swept him away. Now he is given another chance brought about by who knows what, so ... what will he do now with his fresh start? What will he do when he starts Again from Scratch?
The world has been assimilated by the Celestial Archives, a vast system designed to fight the forces that seek to destroy the universe. For most, it's a holy cause that rewards victory with stats, levels, and skills. For Hunter Gold, it's the start of a nightmare. Even in a system dominated by paths, he finds himself taking the road less traveled.
This is a work in progress. Major editing will be done after the book is complete, so there will be egregious typos and parts that make no sense whatsoever. Please feel free to point any and all of these things out. Chapters WILL get edited, and that editing might break earlier chapters. I will attempt to keep readers apprised of all changes. As always, feedback is welcome and appreciated.
This is kind of something fun I wanted to write after reading stories like The New World, System Apocalypse, and the Legend of Randidly Ghosthound. I don't know how serious I will be about this story, but I just want to try it out. I imagine that it will become a love child between Fable, Diablo, and Devil May Cry. Enjoy!

Humanity is extinct.
In their wake, they left behind powerful artifacts and wonderous relics, most of which are still yet to be discovered.
Alien life flourishes in the ruins of ancient human cities. Hundreds of distinct species and cultures. But they all worship the "Old Ones" as gods, for who else could have created these impossible devices: ships that can fly, droids that can think, and gates that form bridges between worlds.
One power-hungry Empire has learned to use these gifts to conquer and dominate all other alien cultures. With each passing day, they grind the people of Gaiam deeper under the bootheel of oppression.
But when an old, jaded thief stumbles upon an ancient, living secret... a new revolution may be at hand.
This is the story of The Last Human.
Andrew suddenly finds himself alone in world that is not his own. The creatures are hostile and unfamiliar, the land around him unrecognizable. He will have to work hard to explore the wilderness he has found himself in, to unravel the ancient magics of this world, and to create a safe place for the others lost in a foreign world like himself.
When not THE Apocalypse strikes, but all of them together, where will you be? What will you do?
As Humanity faces it´s hardest time a playful god shows mercy(?)

Cancer Counseling Hotline
|Vietnam||Tiếng Việt English|
Dr Foo Kian Fong, a Medical Oncologist at Parkway Cancer Centre explains what happens when cancer strikes the liver.
What is liver cancer?
It is the fourth most common cancer in Singapore among men, and the third most fatal cancer among males here.
The liver is a large organ which lies in the upper right side of the abdomen and consists of two lobes – the larger right lobe and the smaller left lobe. It is an important organ as it removes toxins from the blood, produces bile to aid in digestion, stores glycogen (sugar) and more.
Liver cancer, also known as hepatic cancer, is cancer that starts in the liver.
What are the main types of liver cancer?
1. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common form. It emerges in the hepatocytes (liver cells) and usually occurs in hardened and shrunken livers (a condition known as liver cirrhosis) which have been damaged by diseases or chemicals.
HCC is more common among men over 40 years old, with more than 300 new cases diagnosed locally every year, according to data on the Singapore Liver Cancer Registry website.
2. Bile duct cancer accounts for one or two of every 10 cases of liver cancer. These are cancers that start in the bile ducts, which are small tubes that carry bile to the gallbladder.
3. Cancers that begin in blood vessels in the liver are even less common but these tumours grow rapidly and are often too widespread to be removed by the time they are detected. Treatment may help slow the rate of progression, but these cancers are especially hard to treat.
4. Hepatoblastoma is a very rare liver cancer usually found in young children below four years of age. With surgery and chemotherapy, however, the survival rate is over 90 per cent for those with early stage disease. According to the Singapore Childhood Cancer Registry, 13 cases of hepatoblastoma were diagnosed in Singapore between 1997 and 2005.
What are the symptoms and how is the cancer diagnosed?
There are often no symptoms in the early stages and thus ultrasound scans and regular blood tests tend to be the only way to spot possible early stage liver cancer.
Symptoms, when they do emerge, include weight loss for no apparent reason, lack of appetite over a period, a mass or persistent discomfort in the upper abdomen, swelling in the legs as well as jaundice (yellowing of the skin), though these symptoms may be caused by ailments other than cancer as well.
Further tests include liver function tests, physical checks for jaundice or water retention in the legs or abdomen, ultrasound scans or CT scans.
A blood test may also be conducted to determine Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) levels. A higher than normal level of AFP in the blood may be an indication of liver cancer.
How is the cancer treated?
Early liver cancer can be cured with surgery. The reality, however, is that liver cancer is often diagnosed late, making surgery impossible in many advanced cases.
Chemotherapy or radiofrequency ablation (using directed radiofrequency waves to burn the tumour) may then be carried out.
Drugs such as Sorafenib (Nexavar®) have also given hope to and helped prolong the lives of advanced liver cancer patients, especially patients with HCC.
What can be done to prevent liver cancer?
The liver can be affected by a number of lifestyle habits, such as excessive alcohol consumption and obesity, which increases one’s risk of getting fatty liver disease and thus liver cancer.
For a healthy liver, a balanced diet and regular exercise are crucial.
Recent research also shows that up to 80 per cent of liver cancer cases worldwide are caused by the Hepatitis B virus, with Hepatitis B carrier patients more likely than others to contract liver cancer.
For Hepatitis B carrier patients, liver cancer is, therefore, preventable or curable when detected early and simply going for regular health check-ups such as blood tests and ultrasound of the liver.

Manchester United have now played three games in their pre-season tour of the United States.
The Reds dismantled LA Galaxy 7-0 to kick off their preparations in style, then beat Roma 3-2 in their first game of the International Champions Cup and followed that up with a win on penalties over Inter.
Louis van Gaal has been keen to take a look at all of the players he has, giving game time to 26 players in the three games so far, with the likes of Tyler Blackett and Ander Herrera having played the most.
At the other end of the scale, Javier Hernandez is the only player to have completed less than 45 minutes, while a number of players have played just a half.
Hernandez has only recently joined up with the squad after his World Cup exertions while stars such as Robin van Persie is still on a break, but below is a list of minutes played by every United player in the US so far this summer.


Tom Waits: Mule Variations (Epitaph)Admittedly, Waits' music is an acquired taste. The famously gruff vocals are a turn-off to some. And on recent albums Waits has often opted for extremely unusual sonics-heavily compressed and/or distorted growls over occasionally bizarre combinations of instruments and rhythmic noises. The first track, "Big In Japan," is a doozy, not for the faint of heart: it combines a seriously altered vocal, what sounds like someone banging on a metal washtub, an angular electric guitar line and Memphis-style horn blasts. But as is always the case with Waits' work, the songs (most of them collaborations with his wife, Kathleen Brennan) are mostly brilliant-the characters vividly drawn, the lyric images haunting and evocative, and the tunes beneath the sometimes ugly exteriors often actually quite pretty. The beautifully atmospheric "Hold On" is as lovely a song as he's ever written (and he's penned some real beauties), and there are a number of other gems on this consistently strong collection of folkish tunes, surprisingly sentimental ballads and twisted blues: I particularly like "The House Where Nobody Lives," "Pony," "Georgia Lee," "Picture in a Frame" and the hipster poem "What's He Building?" Not for everyone, but a masterpiece nonetheless.
Producers: Tom Waits, Kathleen Brennan; Engineers: Oz Fritz and Jacquire King; Studio: Prairie Sun Recording (Cotati, CA); "Lowside of the Road" recorded by Gene Cornelius at Sputnik Sound; Mastering: Chris Bellman/Bernie Grundman Mastering (L.A.)
Chuck E. Weiss Extremely Cool (Slow River/Rykodisc)The infamous Chuck E. is back with his first full-length album in 18 years. It's earthy, smoky rock 'n' roll and New Orleans R&B, with enough voodoo to conjure Screamin' Jay Hawkins. Weiss has joked that no one with over a third-grade education can play in his band, because his music is so primitive. I don't know what that says about the musicians on this CD, but they seem perfectly matched to Weiss' hot arrangements, especially the brilliant Tom Waits, who plays guitar and sings on the album in addition to co-producing. Waits and Weiss have had a mutual admiration thing since they were sharing a stage in L.A. 20 years ago, and Extremely Cool shows where the two artists still meet-in these powerful, thumping jungle drums, nightclub pianos, crunchy guitars and prophetic voices.
Producers: Tony Gilkyson, Tom Waits, George Howard, Mike Hutchinson and Chuck E. Weiss. Engineer: Mike Hutchinson. Studio: John Herron's. Mastering: Jeff Lipton/Peerless.
Faith Evans: Keep The Faith (Bad Boy)With the crossover popularity of female R&B/hip hop artists such as Toni Braxton, Mary J. Blige and more recently, Lauryn Hill, the genre has taken a strong turn toward melody. Formerly married to the late Christopher Wallace (better known as the Notorious BIG), Evans has made a disc that shines with Biggy's grooves and her own gorgeous vocal arrangements, aided by a number of top-notch producers and engineers. Her range is especially impressive on the dance-y "Love Like This" and the memorable "Caramel Kisses." Puff Daddy lends his voice on "All Night Long," but it is the beautifully textured and tastefully arranged ballads-notably the infectious "My First Love"-that are the real standouts. It's difficult to compare Evans to other R&B contemporaries because she has truly created her own sound, which will no doubt inspire others. A great pick for anyone who appreciates melodic and harmonic symmetry, regardless of genre.
Producers: Sean "Puffy" Combs, Ron "Amen-ra" Lawrence, J-Dub, Carl "Chucky" Thompson, Richard "Younglord" Frierson, Steven "Stevie J." Jordan, Dent (one song), David Foster (one song). Recording engineers: Joe Perrera, "Prince Charles" Alexander, Tony Smalios, Tom Russo, Alex Niehaus, Doug Wilson, Rob Paustian, Tom Cassel, Paul Boutin (one song), Tony Black (one song). Mixing Engineers: Tony Maserati, Niehaus, Michael Patterson, Alexander, Jon Gass, E'lyk, Black, Jordan. Recording Studios: Hit Factory (NYC), Larrabee West (L.A.), Daddy's House (NYC), Sony Music (NYC), Record Plant (NYC), Brandon's Way (L.A.). Mastering: Herb Powers/Powers Sound (NYC)
Polaris: Music From The Adventures of Pete & Pete (Mezzotint)Since first appearing with his band Miracle Legion in the '80s, Mark Mulcahy has made consistently luminous, stirring guitar rock. On this new release, Mulcahy teams with the rhythm section from the last incarnation of Miracle Legion (who, these days, perform with Frank Black) under the name Polaris. The band appeared as fictional characters in the late, lamented Nickelodeon series The Adventures of Pete & Pete, and they recorded these Mulcahy-penned tunes over three years for the three seasons of the show. Despite the fictional guise, there's no mistaking the provenance of these songs: Mulcahy's warm, inviting voice has a strangely beguiling presence and power, and he sounds as good as ever here, while the music (at turns quiet and wistful or driving and ebullient) is soulful in an off-hand way. Loaded with surprising, beautiful moments.
Producers/Engineers: Drew Waters, Tom Buckland. Studios: Mill Rat (Providence, RI), 1313 (Cleveland). Mastering: Allied Digital Technologies (Long Island, NY)
Rosie Flores: Dance Hall Dreams (Rounder)Some artists do it for love. Thank goodness, too, because otherwise talented singer/songwriter Rosie Flores might not still be making beautiful music. Though Flores has never received a whole lot of recognition, she continues to make her sparkling country/Tex-Mex albums, each more enjoyable than the last. This latest release is more singer/songwriterly than Flores' last solo release, Rockabilly Filly, though there's still a good dose of honky-tonk. Standouts are the first track, "Little Bit More," and "Bring It On." There are also several ballads, where lyrics and arrangements are more earnest, but in Flores' capable guitar-wielding hands, and thanks to her adorable voice, even the most strident compositions sound genuinely sweet.
Producers: Rosie Flores and Ray Kennedy. Engineer: Frank Campbell. Overdub recording: Rosie Flores and Ray Kennedy. Mixing: Ray Kennedy. Studios: Recorded at Cibolo Creek Country Club (San Antonio, TX); overdubs and mixing at Room & Board Studios (Nashville). Mastering: Hank Williams/Mastermix (Nashville).
Ginuwine: 100% Ginuwine (Sony/Epic)In the sometimes cookie-cutter world of R&B, it's nice to see acts that have unique recipes, master chefs at work and the talent to create their own name and style. To the innovator's list we should add Ginuwine and his latest CD release. From party grooves to slow ballads, 100% covers a gamut of styles. The CD's sound is marked by soothing, soulful vocals that flow easily over varied instrumental backdrops consisting of some unique drum patterns, live guitars and even some retro keyboard sounds (clavinets and Mini-moogs). "Do You Remember" takes the listener on a lover's journey, while "So Anxious" paints a picture of some very different emotions. And on "Same Ol' G," Ginuwine talks about staying grounded in the face of his new celebrity. The production of Timbaland and mixing by Jimmy Douglass create a nice, complementary balance between the vocal and instrumental parts. This sophomore release should go far in building his already large following.
Producer: Timbaland. Engineer/mixer: Jimmy "Senator" Douglass. Studio: Manhattan Center Studios (NYC).
Charles Lloyd: Voice In the Night (ECM)Here's an all-star band that really delivers-tenor saxophonist Lloyd fronting the ever-imaginative double-bassist Dave Holland, nimble drummer Billy Higgins and ECM guitar stalwart John Abercrombie. The disc covers a nice range of styles, from boppish inventions ("Homage") to playful takes on the blues ("Pocketful of Blues"), a dash of Latin flavoring ("Dorotea's Studio") and the quartet's ethereal rendering of Billy Strayhorn's "A Flower Is a Lovesome Thing." There's a new reading of one of Lloyd's most famous compositions from the '60s, the multipart "Forest Flower: Sunrise/Sunset," and even a version of "God Give Me Strength" by Burt Bacharach and Elvis Costello. Abercrombie's silvery guitar lines mesh wonderfully with Lloyd's earthy and sensuous tone throughout this live-in-the-studio date. The tunes are warm and melody-rich, the atmosphere pleasingly casual. Pass the snifter of cognac, please.
Producer: Manfred Eicher. Engineer: James Farber. Studio: Avatar (NYC)

Caught On Camera
Number 118, the artist who paints Number 6's portrait in 'It's Your Funeral' is decribed as being an eccentric, seeing as how Number 6's portrait turns out to be an abstract of the subject. Number 6 himself could be described as having eccentric tendencies, by the way he daily climbs the Bell Tower. The Admiral and his chum are certainly displaying eccentic tendencies by playing with their plastic boats, or is that second childishness? But caught on camera here, are two certain eccentrics, that have a dinghy in the 'Free Sea' of the pool and fountain. I mean the water in the pool is what, three inches deep? Where do they think they are, Henley boating regatta? Or is this part of some cunning plan? Perhaps they are quietly carrying out a practise session for an escape plan, and simply giving the appearence of two eccentrics. What I want to know is, where did they get that dinghy from?

Well, Elon Musk does, because the billionaire’s aerospace company SpaceX has teamed up with NASA to launch a rocket carrying two astronauts into space tonight – and we’ll all be getting front row seats.
The Falcon 9 rocket will be taking off from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida just after 4.30pm (9.33 BST), after which it will journey to the International Space Station.
If everything goes to plan and unfavourable weather conditions don’t prevent the rocket from launching, we could see the rocket flying over the UK 15 minutes later, which will be between 9:45pm and 9:50pm.
British astronaut Tim Peake told BBC Radio 4 Today that the rocket will be visible if those in the UK look south-west. ‘If you’ve got clear skies, go outside at 9:50pm and you’ll actually see it fly over,’ he explained.
If you look to the south-west… In fact, if you go out at 9:30pm you’ll see the International Space Station fly over and then about 15 minutes later SpaceX will be catching it up.
The Demo-2 mission will see experienced NASA astronauts Robert Behnken, 48, and Douglas Hurley, 53, flying into space – making the Falcon 9 the first manned space flight to leave US soil in nine years.
It will also be SpaceX’s first-ever human flight, something made even more momentous as the rocket will be the first private space flight to head to the International Space Station.
The launch will be streamed live through NASA’s TV channel, and, if successful, will pave the way for future commercial partnerships and a new age of space travel.
According to MeteorWatch, the spacecraft will pass over the UK from a westerly direction and will head east, where it may be visible in the southern part of the sky as it flies past for around three to four minutes.
So what exactly do we need to be looking out for? Well, as the spacecraft passes over, we can expect to see ‘just the one or a collection of objects’ that look like ‘bright stars moving across the sky’.
According to weather forecasts, there will be clear skies this evening, meaning the sky will be fairly light and the craft should be bright enough to catch a glimpse of it.
Basically, you’ve got no excuse not to witness this historic event (unless you’re quizzing, in which case I’ll let you off).

Improving Desert Locust Decision Support in Africa and Asia Using SMAP Soil Moisture Estimates
In the desert areas from northern Africa to East Asia, occasional rainfall in hyper-arid environments results in the development of vegetation that harbor destructive swarms of Desert Locusts (DL). The UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) has developed a Decision Support System (DSS) for monitoring Desert Locust events based on remotely sensed precipitation and vegetation estimates. However, the precipitation data applied by the FAO DSS have been shown to have a low probability of detection in this area leading to high uncertainty in their DL forecasts. We demonstrate the correspondence of AMSR-E soil moisture anomalies with observed Desert Locust events in north Africa and southwest Asia. This relationship enables an improvement to the existing FAO DL Decision Support System through the addition of expected SMAP products which will provide similar soil moisture products to AMSR-E, but at higher spatial resolution. The SMAP rootzone soil moisture product (L4_SM) will be particularly useful in this regard.

Two groups, one devastating effect. The Sugarhill Gang and The Furious Five were at the vanguard of rap and hip hop, changing the face of music forever.
The Sugarhill Gang are a group that needs no introduction. Arguably, the founders of recorded hip hop, the seminal 1979 hit Rapper’s Delight was the first rap single to become a Top 40 single.
Other hits included evergreen Apache. Expect to see original members such as Wonder Mike and Master Gee, who have been touring again since 2016.
This special tour sees them performing with Rock & Roll and Grammy ‘Hall of Famers’ Grandmaster Melle Mel and Scorpio from The Furious Five, who are widely regarded as among the most influential hip hop acts, responsible for masterpieces such as The Message, White Lines, It’s Nasty, Step Off and Pump Me Up.
These two giants will be performing together at the Watering Hole, Perranporth, on Friday, July 20. Be prepared for a late one as there will be a support act at 10pm with the Sugarhill Gang and The Furious Five on at 11.30pm.

As retailers, merchants, and brands continue to search for better ways to handle the relentless growth of e-commerce, the parcel carrier and logistics provider FedEx Corp. today launched a plan to answer that call through a collaboration with software giant Microsoft Corp.
Memphis, Tennessee-based FedEx will combine its package network intelligence with Redmond, Washington-based Microsoft’s Microsoft Dynamics 365 product, which includes enterprise resource planning (ERP) and customer relationship management (CRM) business applications. According to the partners, that mixture is a recipe for a cross-platform “logistics as a service” product that will improve commerce experiences for businesses so they can offer their consumers more integrated ways to shop, and support faster, more efficient deliveries.
More specifically, FedEx and Microsoft say they will apply artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) tools to extrapolate insights from the 17 million packages that pass through the FedEx network each day. The benefits of that approach could include faster, more cost-effective delivery; near real-time delivery status communications; and convenient, frictionless returns with approximately 60,000 drop-off locations and printerless QR codes, the companies said.
The partnership expands an existing relationship between the two companies that had previously created the “FedEx Surround” product, a platform allowing business users to enhance visibility into supply chain details by leveraging data to provide near-real-time analytics into shipment tracking, which will drive more precise logistics and inventory management.
“More than ever, it’s clear just how critical having a resilient supply chain is for every organization's success in the modern economy,” Satya Nadella, chairman and CEO of Microsoft, said in a release. “We’re bringing data and insights from the FedEx network together with the Microsoft Cloud, starting with Dynamics 365, to help organizations accelerate their digital transformation across their business operations so they can offer customers more integrated ways to shop, and faster, more efficient deliveries.”
The partnership follows news last week that two other logistics powerhouses—JD.com and Shopify—had likewise teamed up to combine their capabilities in the name of supercharging the way their networks can serve e-commerce demand.
That initiative enlists different types of players, but it likewise shows the lengths that logistics providers will go to create more powerful fulfillment engines. Specifically, the deal will link Shopify’s millions of merchants worldwide with JD.com’s 550 million active customers in China. The result could give independent brands in the U.S. a simple, trusted way to access consumers in China, while simultaneously enabling Shopify merchants worldwide to access JD’s quality supplier network, the companies said.
“Bringing together two world-class commerce platforms—Shopify and JD.com—is a major step in solving cross-border commerce for merchants,” Aaron Brown, vice president of Shopify, said in a release. “The future of commerce is commerce everywhere—and that starts by removing barriers to entry to one of the most important e-commerce markets in the world.”


Last year, it was reported that Apple's mid-range iPads could use Samsung's OLED panel in 2022 and that the South Korean firm is upgrading its OLED production line. However, Apple reportedly canceled that plan in late 2021, citing brightness issues, cost, and durability. It is being reported that Apple is still interested in using Samsung's OLED panels for future iPads, but there's a catch.
According to TheElec's new report, Apple would need to place an OLED order large enough to be financially viable for Samsung. During the initial phase of this plan, Samsung Display wanted to make a single-stack OLED panel. However, Apple demanded a two-stack structure for higher brightness and durability, but it would've increased the cost, and the plan was later shelved.
Samsung Display might lower the cost of two-stack OLED panels if it can obtain new machinery. The report claims that Samsung Display is trying to get a vertical deposition machine (in collaboration with Japan's Ulvac) and FMM (Fine Metal Masks) for depositing organic materials precisely on the substrate. It may result in lower costs for Samsung's 8.5 Gen OLED panels (2200x2500mm).
If Samsung secures the OLED panel order from Apple, it could invest in new-generation OLED manufacturing equipment by Q3 2022. The machinery could be delivered in 2023, and Samsung can finally start shipping those new OLED panels to Apple by 2024. Looking at this schedule, OLED iPads could be launched by the end of 2024.
However, Samsung Display is not the only firm in contention for Apple's OLED order. LG Display is also reportedly working on two-stack OLED panels for iPads. LG Display has been supplying OLED panels for iPhones for the past few years, so an extension to that partnership isn't surprising.

It’s time to kill the Missouri “adoptee rights” bill. It may have been time to do so a month ago, and I admit I may have been wrong and even naive to think the bill stood a chance of being cleaned up. Instead, it continues to go south, and may even get worse.
If you are text-impaired and wondering what’s going on and cannot figure it all out by trying to keep up with the various changes to the bill, then here’s a quick infographic breakdown. I hope it visualizes what is happening and how language in the bill has been added or changed over time. If you click on any of the circles, it should bring up the text of the bill at that time, just in case you need to verify that I have it all shipshape. I’m also ignoring provisions in the bill that are minor or not critically related to access to an original birth certificate.
There are a few other things in the bill that have also been amended or added since its introduction, like medical history provisions and extending out access to birth certificates to January 2018 “to allow time for birth parents to file a contact preference form.” But the main problem continues, and that is a zombie disclosure veto and no apparent or real strategy to deal with the “left behinds” other than likely also making them forgotten left behinds.
Pull the bill now. Talk candidly with the sponsor, who is an adoptee, and figure out a way to pull the bill and fight a different fight another day, presumably next year or the year after. We cannot continue to enshrine—at birth and with an adoption agency’s direction—the notion that birth parents have a right to instill secrecy. Enough is enough.

Salem man arrested in Candia burglary; firearms still missing
CANDIA - A Salem man was arrested by Candia Police on suspicion of having stolen $1,700 in jewelry and two firearms from a Candia resident.
Michael Foye, 36, was arrested by Candia Police Nov. 7 after being previously incarcerated by Salem Police Oct. 12 on separate charges of forgery, receiving stolen property and theft by deception. He was arraigned the same day and charged with felony theft.
Police began investigating Foye after the victim, who has not been named, approached Candia Police Oct. 3. The victim became suspicious of Foye, a day laborer who worked for the alleged victim, in September, after business checks began to disappear and were cashed at Salem and Bedford banks. The victim had lent Foye his truck, where the checks had been, in the previous weeks.
The victim approached police and said he suspected Foye burglarized his home, stole an Omega gold chain, a number of rings, and two semi-automatic handguns.
Foye worked for the victim's construction firm and had been helping with renovations at the victim's home in September.
Candia Police Sgt. Scott Gallagher took the lead on the case, coordinating with Salem Police Sgt Gallagher. Salem Police reviewed Foye's pawn records, leading police to a Salem pawn shop where $1,700 worth of jewelry was later identified by the victim's wife as her own.
The firearms have not been recovered.
According to the police affidavit, Foye admitted to taking the checks. He told a Salem police officer that he had cashed one and wrote the other out to his roommate for rent, according to the affidavit. After being shown the recovered jewelry, he also admitted to the theft, which he had previously denied, police said. Foye has denied any involvement in the missing firearms.
Foye is being held at the Rockingham County Jail in Brentwood on $20,000 cash bail. He is scheduled for a probable cause hearing in 10th Circuit Court, Candia District Division, Nov. 21 at 10 a.m.

Regardless of the products manufactured at a manufacturing facility, businesses aim to reduce costs for ergonomics, safety and maintenance. In accordance with this goal, there are many different uses of composite products in manufacturing enterprises.
For example, the use of the FRP composite grating is the perfect solution to relieve the load on the feet and legs of workers who have to work standing along the assembly line. The natural flexibility of the FRP grating facilitates long time standing of workers and reduces worker fatigue. In the same way, FRP gratings can be preferred in places such as worktops, maintenance and packaging sections, where the workers are in a fixed position, cable duct covers, water pipe covers, or walkways.
Slipping and falling can cause many industrial injuries and workday losses. FRP composite grating plates provide excellent shear resistance even in wet and greasy environments and reduce the risk of slipping and falling.
The spark that may be caused by friction in flammable and explosive environments may cause undesired accidents. Our FRP-structured products are not conductive and do not cause any sparkle due to any reason. They can be used for safety purposes in such environments.
The maintenance costs of our FRP composite products are extremely low. They do not rust,rot or need to be painted like iron, steel, wood, etc. They can be easily cleaned with pressurized water if needed.

Mum launches app to help parents find child-friendly spots in Edinburgh
An entrepreneurial mum-of-two has launched an app that aims to help parents find the best child-friendly places and things to do in Edinburgh, Fife and the Lothians.
Gill Mudie came up with the idea for Dribble, a ratings and recommendations platform, when she was on maternity leave with her first child, Alastair, now three.
When pregnant with her son, she and her husband had moved back to Edinburgh from London where they had lived for eight years.
She said: “I didn’t really have that many friends round about that already had kids. I did an NCT class and that was a lifesaver but I had to find my way around Edinburgh again.”
She made sure that she took her newborn out every day, which made her feel like she had “achieved something”.
She said: “For my own mental wellbeing I loved getting out of the house.”
Struggling to find buggy-friendly coffee shops or places she felt comfortable, Gill realised she needed to “rediscover” the city she grew up in through a mum’s eyes.
And so, the idea for Dribble was born.
She said: “I thought there would have already been an app for that but there wasn’t so I did a bit of research and I thought, well if there isn’t one I won’t be the only person looking for something like that, why don’t I go ahead and create it.”
When Gill, who had previously worked as a management consultant, was pregnant with daughter Rachel, she started the company with the help of a start-up business incubator in London, Gate One.
Soon she had secured two grants from Scottish Enterprise and the app was taking shape.
After Rachel was born in January 2018, Gill spent her second maternity leave, “really kicking it off”.
She set up a Facebook group and soon had a loyal community of parents who helped her with marketing surveys and focus groups and it was clear to her that there was a gap that her app could fill.
She said: “As well as finding myself in a situation feeling like it was a bit of a need, I realised after I became a parent how much parents like to support each other and help each other out.”
That was something she wanted to harness in the app, which is populated by information provided by the people that use it.
Not only does Dribble help parents plan their days out, they host a breast feeding mums group and have plans for more offline meet ups next year.
Importantly for Gill, the app also supports local businesses through recommendations and a partner scheme that offers discounts to users.
Gill wants people using her app to always have options at their fingertips for the best places to take their families.
She said: “I feel like people getting out and enjoying the time they’ve got with their kids is important.
“It’s an online app but it’s actually trying to bring you more real life experiences.”


An upcoming Visa app for Vodafone smartphones will let customers use their mobile device to make payments at 100,000 Visa payWave terminals in Australia.
The Vodafone SmartPass app, announced today by Visa and Vodafone, is built for Google Android and relies on smartphones equipped with near-field communications (NFC) technology. ANZ is the bank providing the prepaid card and the acquiring bank for loading funds. Rev provides the technology that connects into VisaNet to process transactions.
SmartPass is currently a pilot project but the companies expect to make it public next year. The companies are using the Samsung Galaxy S3 smartphone for the pilot.
The app launches first for Android devices but Vodafone plans to later port the app to Windows Phone devices, Vodafone general manager, Thomas Roets, told Computerworld Australia.
There are no plans to make the app available on the Apple iPhone because the device does not include NFC capability, Roets said. Vodafone hopes the app will help convince Apple to support NFC in future iterations of the iPhone, he said.
Vodafone considered NFC-equipped sleeves for the iPhone but decided it was too costly. Such a case is expensive to build and would have had to be resized for different form factors, he said.
The app will come pre-installed in new Vodafone smartphones with NFC. The payment service also requires an NFC-enabled SIM card with Visa’s payWave technology. Roets estimated that 80 per cent of Vodafone’s new devices in store will support SmartPass.
While SmartPass is exclusive to Vodafone, Visa wants to release similar apps for other telcos, Visa country manager Vipin Kalra said. “Our goal is that we bring the solution to as many consumers as possible,” Kalra said.
SmartPass is “a step towards a true digital wallet,” Kalra said. “A digital wallet sits in the cloud, whereas [SmartPass] is an app sitting on a SIM,” he said. “Eventually what we want to do is bring face-to-face and online purchases to one device.” Visa hopes to get to that point sometime next year, he said.
To make a payment using SmartPass, a user holds the mobile phone over a Visa payWave terminal and taps a large button on the touch screen.
SmartPass is prepaid, so users must add value to the app before they can make payments. Value can be added using any payment card, and the app can use NFC to scan in payment information from a Visa card equipped with payWave. Users can store card information in the app and set up automatic top-ups to add value when balance dips below a specified level.
For security, users can set up a PIN code for running the app. The app does not show a user’s balance unless the user selects to view it. If a user loses the mobile, SmartPass can be disabled in a manner similar to a lost credit card.

Although my own garden is not short on weeds – and being on the Theodore Payne Native Plant Garden Tour this Sunday, it really should be – I spent much of the day bashing, scything, pruning, pulling, wrestling, and cursing the weeds at the nature park. The late rains have brought more wildflowers, lovely clouds, even a rainbow over the Angeles, but also lots of weeds to the park. The plants we planted on February 1 are doing very well, also thanks to the extra moisture.
|Rainbow over Angeles National Forest. It was much more vivid and striking than picture shows.
So if you have a spare moment, go on down to the park, and be sure to pull a few weeds.
