|Cultural origins||Early 17th century, Southern United States|
|Christian country music|
Gospel music is a genre of Christian music. The creation, performance, significance, and even the definition of gospel music varies according to culture and social context. Gospel music is composed and performed for many purposes, including aesthetic pleasure, religious or ceremonial purposes, and as an entertainment product for the marketplace. Gospel music usually has dominant vocals (often with strong use of harmony) with Christian lyrics. Gospel music can be traced to the early 17th century,with roots in the black oral tradition. Hymns and sacred songs were often repeated in a call and response fashion. Most of the churches relied on hand clapping and foot stomping as rhythmic accompaniment. Most of the singing was done a cappella. The first published use of the term "gospel song" probably appeared in 1874. The original gospel songs were written and composed by authors such as George F. Root, Philip Bliss, Charles H. Gabriel, William Howard Doane, and Fanny Crosby. Gospel music publishing houses emerged. The advent of radio in the 1920s greatly increased the audience for gospel music. Following World War II, gospel music moved into major auditoriums, and gospel music concerts became quite elaborate.
Gospel blues is a blues-based form of gospel music (a combination of blues guitar and evangelistic lyrics).[ not verified in body ] Southern gospel used all male, tenor-lead-baritone-bass quartet make-up. Progressive Southern gospel is an American music genre that has grown out of Southern gospel over the past couple of decades. Christian country music, sometimes referred to as country gospel music, is a subgenre of gospel music with a country flair. It peaked in popularity in the mid-1990s.
Bluegrass gospel music is rooted in American mountain music. Celtic gospel music infuses gospel music with a Celtic flair, and is quite popular in countries such as Ireland. British black gospel refers to Gospel music of the African diaspora, which has been produced in the UK. Some proponents of "standard" hymns generally dislike gospel music of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Today, with historical distance, there is a greater acceptance of such gospel songs into official denominational hymnals.
Gospel music features dominant vocals (often with strong use of harmony) and Christian lyrics. Some modern gospel music, however, is not explicitly Christian and just utilizes the sound. Subgenres include contemporary gospel, urban contemporary gospel (sometimes referred to as "black gospel"), Southern gospel, and modern gospel music (now more commonly known as praise and worship music or contemporary Christian music). Several forms of gospel music utilize choirs, use piano or Hammond organ, tambourines, drums, bass guitar and, increasingly, electric guitar. In comparison with hymns, which are generally of a statelier measure, the gospel song is expected to have a refrain and often a more syncopated rhythm.
Several attempts have been made to describe the style of late 19th and early 20th century gospel songs in general. Christ-Janer said "the music was tuneful and easy to grasp ... rudimentary harmonies ... use of the chorus ... varied metric schemes ... motor rhythms were characteristic ... The device of letting the lower parts echo rhythmically a motive announced by the sopranos became a mannerism".
Patrick and Sydnor emphasize the notion that gospel music is "sentimental", quoting Sankey as saying, "Before I sing I must feel", and they call attention to the comparison of the original version of Rowley's "I Will Sing the Wondrous Story" with Sankey's version.Gold said, "Essentially the gospel songs are songs of testimony, persuasion, religious exhortation, or warning. Usually the chorus or refrain technique is found."
According to Yale University music professor Willie Ruff, the singing of psalms in Gaelic by Presbyterians of the Scottish Hebrides evolved from "lining out" – where one person sang a solo and others followed – into the call and response of gospel music of the American South. [ unreliable source? ] Gospel music has roots in the black oral tradition, and typically utilizes a great deal of repetition, which allows those who could not read the opportunity to participate in worship. During this time, hymns and sacred songs were lined and repeated in a call-and-response fashion, and Negro spirituals and work songs emerged. Repetition and "call and response" are accepted elements in African music, designed to achieve an altered state of consciousness sometimes referred to as "trance", and to strengthen communal bonds.Coming out of the African-American religious experience, American gospel music can be traced to the early 17th century, with foundations in the works of Dr. Isaac Watts and others.
Most of the churches relied on hand-clapping and foot-stomping as rhythmic accompaniment. Guitars and tambourines were sometimes available, but not frequently. Church choirs became a norm only after emancipation. Most of the singing was done a cappella.
Perhaps the most famous gospel-based hymns were composed in the 1760s and 1770s by English writers John Newton ("Amazing Grace") and Augustus Toplady ("Rock of Ages"), members of the Anglican Church. Starting out as lyrics only, it took decades for standardized tunes to be added to them. Although not directly connected with African-American gospel music, they were adopted by African-Americans as well as white Americans, and Newton's connection with the abolition movement provided cross-fertilization.
The first published use of the term "Gospel Song" probably appeared in 1874 when Philip Bliss released a songbook entitled Gospel Songs. A Choice Collection of Hymns and Tunes. It was used to describe a new style of church music, songs that were easy to grasp and more easily singable than the traditional church hymns, which came out of the mass revival movement starting with Dwight L. Moody, whose musician was Ira D. Sankey, as well as the Holiness-Pentecostal movement.Prior to the meeting of Moody and Sankey in 1870, there was an American rural/frontier history of revival and camp meeting songs, but the gospel hymn was of a different character, and it served the needs of mass revivals in the great cities.
The revival movement employed popular singers and song leaders, the most famous of them being Ira D. Sankey. The original gospel songs were written and composed by authors such as George F. Root, Philip Bliss, Charles H. Gabriel, William Howard Doane, and Fanny Crosby.As an extension to his initial publication Gospel Songs, Philip Bliss, in collaboration with Ira D. Sankey issued no's. 1 to 6 of Gospel Hymns in 1875. Sankey and Bliss's collection can be found in many libraries today.
The popularity of revival singers and the openness of rural churches to this type of music (in spite of its initial use in city revivals) led to the late 19th and early 20th century establishment of gospel music publishing houses such as those of Homer Rodeheaver, E. O. Excell, Charlie Tillman, and Charles Tindley. These publishers were in the market for large quantities of new music, providing an outlet for the creative work of many songwriters and composers.
The holiness-Pentecostal movement, or sanctified movement, appealed to people who were not attuned to the Europeanized version of black church music. Holiness worship has used any type of instrumentation that congregation members might bring in, from tambourines to electric guitars. Pentecostal churches readily adopted and contributed to the gospel music publications of the early 20th century. Sister Rosetta Tharpe was the first great recording star of gospel music.Late 20th-century musicians such as Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis, Mahalia Jackson, Andrae Crouch, and the Blackwood Brothers either were raised in a Pentecostal environment, or have acknowledged the influence of that tradition.
The advent of radio in the 1920s greatly increased the audience for gospel music, and James D. Vaughan used radio as an integral part of his business model, which also included traveling quartets to publicize the gospel music books he published several times a year.Virgil O. Stamps and Jesse R. Baxter studied Vaughan's business model and by the late 1920s were running heavy competition for Vaughan. The 1920s also saw the marketing of gospel records by groups such as the Carter Family.
The first person to introduce the ragtime influence to gospel accompaniment as well as to play the piano on a gospel recording was Arizona Dranes.
In African-American music, gospel quartets developed an a cappella style following the earlier success of the Fisk Jubilee Singers. The 1930s saw the Fairfield Four, the Dixie Hummingbirds, the Five Blind Boys of Mississippi, the Five Blind Boys of Alabama, The Soul Stirrers, the Swan Silvertones, the Charioteers, and the Golden Gate Quartet. Racism divided the nation, and this division did not skip the church. If during slavery blacks were treated as inferior inside the white churches, after emancipation they formed their own separate churches. The gospel groups which were very popular within the black community, were virtually unknown to the white community, though some in the white community began to follow them.In addition to these high-profile quartets, there were many black gospel musicians performing in the 1920s and 30s, usually playing the guitar and singing in the streets of Southern cities. Famous among them were Blind Willie Johnson, Blind Joe Taggart and others.
In the 1930s, in Chicago, Thomas A. Dorsey (known for composing the song "Precious Lord, Take My Hand"), who had spent the 1920s writing and performing secular blues music under the name "Georgia Tom", turned to gospel music, establishing a publishing house.He had experienced many trials in his life,including the death of his pregnant wife. Thomas gained biblical knowledge from his father, who was a Baptist minister, and was taught to play piano by his mother. He started working with blues musicians when the family moved to Atlanta. It has been said that 1930 was the year when modern gospel music began, because the National Baptist Convention first publicly endorsed the music at its 1930 meeting. Dorsey was responsible for developing the musical careers of many African-American artists, such as Mahalia Jackson. In 1942, the gospel group the Sensational Nightingales was founded, joined in 1946 by another gospel singer Julius Cheeks. Wilson Pickett and James Brown were influenced by Julius Cheeks.
Meanwhile, radio continued to develop an audience for gospel music, a fact that was commemorated in Albert E. Brumley's 1937 song, "Turn Your Radio On" (which is still being published in gospel song books). (In 1972, a recording of "Turn Your Radio On" by the Lewis Family was nominated for Gospel Song of the Year.)
Following World War II, gospel music moved into major auditoriums, and gospel music concerts became quite elaborate.In 1950, black gospel was featured at Carnegie Hall when Joe Bostic produced the Negro Gospel and Religious Music Festival. He repeated it the next year with an expanded list of performing artists, and in 1959 moved to Madison Square Garden. In 1964, the Gospel Music Association was established, which in turn began the Dove Awards (in 1969) and the Gospel Music Hall of Fame (in 1972). Both of which began primarily for Southern gospel performers, but in the late-1970s, began including artists of other sub-genres. Also in 1969, James Cleveland established the Gospel Music Workshop of America.

Christian country music, sometimes referred to as country gospel music, is a subgenre of gospel music with a country flair, is also known as inspirational country. Christian country over the years has progressed into a mainstream country sound with inspirational or positive country lyrics. In the mid-1990s, Christian country hit its highest popularity. So much so that mainstream artists like Larry Gatlin, Charlie Daniels and Barbara Mandrell, just to name a few, began recording music that had this positive Christian country flair. These mainstream artists have now become award winners in this genre.
British black gospel refers to gospel music of the African diaspora, which has been produced in the UK. It is also often referred to as urban contemporary gospel or UK gospel.The distinctive sound is heavily influenced by UK street culture with many artists from the African and Caribbean majority black churches in the UK. The genre has gained recognition in various awards such as the GEM (Gospel Entertainment Music) Awards, MOBO Awards, Urban Music Awards and has its own Official Christian & Gospel Albums Chart.
Southern gospel music is a genre of Christian music. Its name comes from its origins in the Southeastern United States whose lyrics are written to express either personal or a communal faith regarding biblical teachings and Christian life, as well as (in terms of the varying music styles) to give a Christian alternative to mainstream secular music. Sometimes known as "quartet music" for its traditional "four men and a piano" set up, southern gospel has evolved over the years into a popular form of music across the United States and overseas, especially among baby boomers and those living in the Southern United States. Like other forms of music the creation, performance, significance, and even the definition of southern gospel varies according to culture and social context. It is composed and performed for many purposes, ranging from aesthetic pleasure, religious or ceremonial purposes, or as an entertainment product for the marketplace.
Some proponents of "standard" hymns generally dislike gospel music of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. For example, Patrick and Sydnor complain that commercial success led to a proliferation of such music, and "deterioration, even in a standard which to begin with was not high, resulted."They went on to say, "there is no doubt that a deterioration in taste follows the use of this type of hymn and tune; it fosters an attachment to the trivial and sensational which dulls and often destroys sense of the dignity and beauty which best befit the song that is used in the service of God."
Gold reviewed the issue in 1958, and collected a number of quotations similar to the complaints of Patrick and Syndor. However, he also provided this quotation: "Gospel hymnody has the distinction of being America's most typical contribution to Christian song. As such, it is valid in its inspiration and in its employment."
Today, with historical distance, there is a greater acceptance of such gospel songs into official denominational hymnals. For example, the United Methodist Church made this acceptance explicit in The Faith We Sing, a 2000 supplement to the official denominational hymnal. In the preface, the editors say, "Experience has shown that some older treasures were missed when the current hymnals were compiled."
A hymn is a type of song, usually religious, specifically written for the purpose of adoration or prayer, and typically addressed to a deity or deities, or to a prominent figure or personification. The word hymn derives from Greek ὕμνος (hymnos), which means "a song of praise". A writer of hymns is known as a hymnist. The singing or composition of hymns is called hymnody. Collections of hymns are known as hymnals or hymn books. Hymns may or may not include instrumental accompaniment.
Ira David Sankey, was an American gospel singer and composer, known for his long association with Dwight L. Moody in a series of religious revival campaigns in America and Britain during the closing decades of the 19th century. Sankey was a pioneer in the introduction of a musical style that influenced church services and evangelical campaigns for generations, and the hymns that he wrote or popularized continued to be sung well into the 21st century.

Church music is music written for performance in church, or any musical setting of ecclesiastical liturgy, or music set to words expressing propositions of a sacred nature, such as a hymn.
"How Can I Keep From Singing?" is an American folksong originally composed as a Christian hymn by American Baptist minister Robert Wadsworth Lowry. The song is frequently, though erroneously, cited as a traditional Quaker or Shaker hymn. The original composition has now entered into the public domain, and appears in several hymnals and song collections, both in its original form and with a revised text that omits most of the explicitly Christian content and adds a verse about solidarity in the face of oppression. Though it was not originally a Quaker hymn, Quakers adopted it as their own in the twentieth century and use it widely today.
Kingdom songs are the hymns sung by Jehovah's Witnesses at their religious meetings. Since 1879, the Watch Tower Society has published hymnal lyrics; by the 1920s they had published hundreds of adapted and original songs, and by the 1930s they referred to these as "Kingdom songs" in reference to God's Kingdom.
Philip Paul Bliss was an American composer, conductor, writer of hymns and a bass-baritone Gospel singer. He wrote many well-known hymns, including "Almost Persuaded" (1871); "Hallelujah, What a Saviour!" (1875); "Let the Lower Lights Be Burning"; "Wonderful Words of Life" (1875); and the tune for Horatio Spafford's "It Is Well with My Soul" (1876).
Robert Lowry was an American preacher who became a popular writer of gospel music in the mid- to late-19th century. His best-known hymns include "Shall We Gather at the River", "Christ Arose!", "How Can I Keep from Singing?" and "Nothing But The Blood Of Jesus".
The Redemption Hymnal is a red-covered hymnbook containing 800 evangelical hymns, first published by the Elim Publishing House in London, in 1951. The hymnal was compiled by a committee of leaders from the three main Pentecostal denominations in the United Kingdom: Assemblies of God in Great Britain, Elim Pentecostal Church and the Apostolic Church (denomination). It is strongly associated with the emergence of the Pentecostal movement in the United Kingdom.
Traditional black gospel is music that is written to express either personal or a communal belief regarding African American Christian life, as well as to give a Christian alternative to mainstream secular music. It is a form of Christian music and a subgenre of gospel music.
"The Sweet By-and-By" is a Christian hymn with lyrics by S. Fillmore Bennett and music by Joseph P. Webster. It is recognizable by its chorus:
"Farther Along" is an American Southern gospel song of disputed authorship. The song deals with a Christian's dismay at the apparent prosperity of the wicked, when contrasted with the suffering of the righteous. The repeated theme is that, "farther along", the truth will be revealed.
Edwin Othello Excell, commonly known as E. O. Excell, was a prominent American publisher, composer, song leader, and singer of music for church, Sunday school, and evangelistic meetings during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Some of the significant collaborators in his vocal and publishing work included Sam P. Jones, William E. Biederwolf, Gipsy Smith, Charles Reign Scoville, J. Wilbur Chapman, W. E. M. Hackleman, Charles H. Gabriel and D. B. Towner.
Charles Davis Tillman —also known as Charlie D. Tillman, Charles Tillman, Charlie Tillman, and C. D. Tillman—was a popularizer of the gospel song. He had a knack for adopting material from eclectic sources and flowing it into the mix now known as southern gospel, becoming one of the formative influences on that genre.
The gospel song, Palms of Victory, also called “Deliverance Will Come,” and “The Way-worn Traveler,” was evidently written in 1836 by the Rev. John B. Matthias, a Methodist Episcopal minister in New York state. This attribution is not well documented, and Matthias had no known history of song-writing, but there is no other author to whom it can be attributed.
George Coles Stebbins (1846–1945) was a gospel song writer. Stebbins was born February 26, 1846, in Orleans County, New York, where he spent the first 23 years of his life on a farm. In 1869 he moved to Chicago, Illinois, which marked the beginning of his musical career.
"What Wondrous Love Is This" is a Christian folk hymn, sometimes described as a "white spiritual", from the American South. Its text was first published in 1811, during the Second Great Awakening, and its melody derived from a popular English ballad. Today it is a widely known hymn included in hymnals of many Christian denominations.
The term Gospel Song, first used by Philip Bliss, was created in order to describe a new genre of spiritual songs that originated out of the church hymn singing tradition and was meant to support the preacher's message, the Gospel, at huge gatherings of faithless audiences during the Great Awakening of the Methodist Church in the U.S. during the late 19th century by finding new, easy to learn expressive melodies and using a repetitive structure of Verses and Choruses.

(This post is the first in a series on “Housing the next generation.”)
We’ve heard a good deal recently about how upcoming potential homebuyers will be locked out because of low wealth, high debt, and uncertain, lower incomes. While some potential new homeowners might have all of these characteristics, many will almost certainly fall into just one or two categories.
In particular, we would not be surprised to find potential homeowners who are wealth- and/or credit-constrained, but who have relatively good and steady incomes. Can they be served in a way that meets their needs and is safe and sound for lenders and investors?
We can get some hint of the answer by looking at the performance of 15-year fixed rate loans over the last 15 years. Sure, a disproportionate share of 15-year loans are refinances, but we have a large enough dataset to be able to look at 15-year purchase loans, and also to separate out high loan-to-value (LTV), low FICO score loans—that is, loans to the lower-wealth, poorer-credit borrowers of the past.
The good news is that the faster equity appreciation of a 15-year loan, in comparison to a 30-year loan, makes a huge difference in loan performance. As shown in the chart below, for our entire database of loans (CoreLogic Prime Servicing Data, which includes about 62 percent of outstanding loans), only 1.8 percent of purchase money 15-year fixed rate loans ever went 90 days delinquent, compared with 6.9 percent of purchase money 30-year fixed rate loans. And that’s over the entire boom-and-bust cycle, from before 2000 through 2013.
As illustrated above, significant differences are apparent for purchase loans to borrowers with FICO scores below 700 (2.6 percent versus 10.7 percent) and for loans with LTVs above 90 (4.0 percent versus 8.2 percent). Even more impressive: the 7.5 percent default rate for greater than 90 LTV, less than 700 FICO 15-year mortgages is similar to the 6.9 percent default rate for greater than 90 LTV, 700-750 FICO 30-year borrowers. These differences held when we used a logit model to hold other factors (occupancy, state, issue year) constant.
While there may be multiple reasons for this similarity in performance, the faster equity buildup of a 15- year loan is an important contributing factor. Moreover, and not considered in the chart (which only measures delinquencies), faster equity growth means that when a 15-year loan defaults, the loss severity is likely to be lower.
As shown by comparing the first red bar to the second blue bar, low down payment 15-year purchase loans outperform 30-year purchase loans of all LTVs. Taking that into account could open the door to homeownership to many more low-wealth families, even those without pristine credit, if their incomes allow them to afford a higher monthly payment.
Should everyone be required to have a 15-year loan? No. The advantage of the 30-year mortgage has always been lower monthly payments, and for many borrowers, those are key to being able to purchase a home. Moreover, good underwriting, which often was not the case during part of the period at issue but that will be required by the ability to pay rules under the Dodd-Frank Act, will enhance the quality of all loans. But this analysis provides one illustration that a higher down payment isn’t the only road to good performance.

After a long silence, Devin Ratray finally made himself felt. True, it would be better if he did it differently. It turned out that the actor known for his role as Kevin’s nasty brother from the movie “Home Alone” is now under investigation.
He is suspected of a sexual offense committed against a friend. It is known that the application from the victim Lisa Smith has not been considered for a long time – since 2017. And yet, the cops got to work.
Smith herself claims that that evening she was in the company of Ratray, as well as his friend and her brother. At some point, the star “pumped” his victim with illegal substances, and when the other two guests left, he allegedly committed an illegal act against her.
By the way, this is not the first time Devin Ratray has been accused of breaking the law: for example, last year, a former celebrity lover stated that he tried to strangle her. The last case will be considered in October, writes Super .

SUFFOLK — Representatives of several civic leagues throughout the city demanded Thursday that the City Council hold a public hearing before it proceeds with a plan to build a regional jail in the Elephants Fork area.
"We're fighting for the life of our community," said Percie L. Stagg, president of the Elephants Fork Civic League. "We've fighting for the very safety of our lives."
"I've been in this community all 64 years of my life, and now this type of stuff is coming in," said Mattie Eley. "We don't have a decent playground for the children, and now they're building a jail here instead."
The jail opponents met in a church near the proposed site, which is at the Route 58 bypass and Route 10. Residents of the area are calling for the city to find a more isolated site for the jail.
Also attending the meeting were representatives of the Olde Towne Civic League, the Saratoga-Philadelphia Civic League and the Oakdale-Pierce Park-Magnolia Civic League.
Stagg, a former New York corrections officer, said it is inevitable an inmate would escape from the jail at some point.
"You could walk to that prison within three to four minutes," Stagg said. "You know how long it would take for a prisoner to reach your back yard if he escaped."
City officials defended the site selection, City Manager John L. Rowe Jr. saying the proposed 295-cell jail would be built on a 50-acre site and would have a large buffer zone. He said the jail would have to meet strict state requirements on security. The city's current jail is located in much more of a residential area, he said.
"When people break out of jail, they don't run next door," Rowe said. "They try to get as far away as they can."
William Johnson, city attorney, said he was not yet sure whether the city would be required to hold a public hearing on the matter. A conditional use permit already has been granted for a local jail, and the land already has been rezoned.
Suffolk, Isle of Wight County and Franklin have moved rapidly to become the first communities eligible to receive millions of state dollars for a regional jail. The state has agreed to pay 50 percent of the construction costs.
Already the three communities have adopted resolutions in support of the project. Southampton County officials so far have decided not to participate but have reserved the right to join later. The city must send the resolutions and design plans of the regional jail to the Department of Corrections within the first week of August to meet a state deadline.
At a meeting Tuesday, Vice Mayor S. Christopher Jones said the city should not build the jail unless officials were sure the site offered enough space for expanding to an 800-inmate jail in the future.
The people attending Thursday's meeting said that many inmates would be unsafe, what with Elephants Fork Elementary School nearby.
Councilman Andrew B. Damiani agreed, saying he would vote to put a regional jail in the area only if a cap were put on the number of inmates. Damiani said a public hearing should be held before the council voted on an agreement with the other communities.
"We ought to make sure we don't rush too fast and forget to cover all our bases," Damiani said. "I think it'd be unfair to put a large facility in Elephants Fork."
Jones pointed out that the city has held a public hearing on the site, though at that time it was proposed as a city jail, not a regional one. "We are doing something that makes sense to the taxpayers and does not impinge any more on the people living in that area," he said. "Any decision on locating a jail is a tough one, a difficult one. But we considered those things when we went through the public hearing process."

Shortly after an excellent 7”, The Luxembourg Signal, i.e., the UK/LA dreamgaze supergroup comprised of members of Aberdeen, Fonda and Trembling Blue Stars, deliver their debut masterpiece of fluid melodies, spacey drones and dark mystery.
Beginning with the throbbing Spiritualized pulse of “Dying Star,” The Luxembourg Signal blasts directly into the dreampop territory first forged by Echo and the Bunnymen and spacier Cure. Through a series of amazingly solid songs, the quintet explores the darkness in light by adding a touch of pain to their irresistibly catchy riffs and hypnotic drones fueled by vocalist Beth Arzy’s beautiful, forlorn vocals. The 7” tracks appear here, along with “First Light,” an ominous duet featuring Aberdeen’s John Girgus, and “Drowning,” a cascading wash of shoegaze glory punctuated by guest drummer, Dale Crover of The Melvins. There’s also the new wave twang of “We Go On” and the ’80s hedonistic smirk of the closing “Let It Go.” It’s an album full of surprises, where each track turns a corner into new, yet familiar, heady territory.
With such experience, both musically and personally, it’s no wonder that The Luxembourg Signal can produce such greatness the first time around. Hopefully, we won’t have to wait too long to hear them again.

GM Spends Big On Unknown Startup In Race For Autonomy.
FCA Though Hangs Back, Conserving Capital.
“We estimate that in the past two months, GM has deployed cash resources accounting for nearly one third of this year’s projected cash flow”
General Motors, and to a lesser extent Ford, are accelerating their takeover of new technology companies, taking a view that unless they spend huge sums, they may well find themselves blind-sided and fatally weakened by ambitious companies like Google or Apple.
In contrast, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) seems to taking the view that it doesn’t need to invest scarce resources in new technology, and will simply buy it in when it needs to without endangering its future.
Last week GM bought San Francisco autonomous vehicle start-up company Cruise, for an undisclosed amount, thought by some to maybe reach $1 billion. Cruise has received venture capital investments of around $20 million and was recently valued at $100 million, according to IHS Automotive. In the same week Ford set up a new subsidiary, Ford Smart Mobility focussed on autonomous car development. In January GM invested $500 million in Lyft, the ride-hailing wannabe, and launched its own car-sharing service Maven. Cruise will help GM develop a fleet of autonomous taxis for Lyft to operate.
“With the Lyft alliance, our Maven car-sharing brand and now Cruise, we have a lot of pieces of the puzzle that will enable us to define the future of mobility,” GM President Dan Ammann told the Financial Times.
Investment bank Morgan Stanley said GM and Ford’s move shows their recognition they need to attack to defend their future position, while FCA takes a different view.
“The moves are emblematic of the amount of capital heading towards autonomous vehicles,” Morgan Stanley analyst Adam Jonas said in a report.
“We estimate that in the past two months, GM has deployed cash resources accounting for nearly one third of this year’s projected cash flow towards expanding its portfolio of in-house expertise in shared, autonomous electric transport,” Jonas said.
Jonas had this question for GM.
“What’s the end game? For GM to be the world leader in AV design and development? If that is the mission – how many billions should investors prepare to be spent on that endeavour,” Jonas said.
Jonas said that this contrasts with FCA’s policy, which he said was to commit no new capital to such ventures.
“While this means they may never be a leader in autonomous vehicles, we believe they can focus management resources on preserving portions of the value (of) its franchise to shareholders through a broad reconsideration of the brand portfolio,” he said.
IHS Automotive said GM’s move showed it was serious about developing the technology and controlling its own path to self-driving and driverless vehicles.
“Once complete, this is likely to be a good acquisition for GM and will speed up its development and deployment of autonomous driving vehicles – from partial autonomy to full autonomy,” IHS Automotive analyst Egil Juliussen said.
Juliussen said Cruise had developed an aftermarket product – Highway Auto Pilot priced at $10,000 – which could perform limited autonomy for the Audi A4 or Audi S4. The product consisted of a sensor on the roof and a computer in the boot.
“It is possible that Cruise has developed additional software technology since its aftermarket product was announced,” Juliussen said.
Juliussen said GM’s move was likely to spur other manufacturers to decide their strategy, which could be –
- License Google’s self-driving and driverless software. Many manufacturers are considering this.
- Acquire start-ups like Cruise.
- Rely on big suppliers to develop autonomous technology.
- Develop the technology on their own, like Toyota


The first hybrid (benzo-electric) multicopter HYBRiX.20
For the first time a hybrid benzo-electric power plant is used on the drone, which allows to achieve high performance in flight duration,said the source.
According to him, the system is based on foreign development, which was localized by Russian specialists.
The interlocutor said that the UAV "is a quadrocopter with four propellers driven by electric motors; the electric power for them is generated by an internal-combustion engine that runs on gasoline."
Maximum take-off weight of the 20 kg. It can fly for up to 4 hours (up to 2 hours with maximum load) at speeds up to 70 km / h.
The unmanned system is designed to solve a wide range of tasks, including monitoring of extended and area objects, cargo delivery, etc. For which the device can be equipped with various payload equipment with a total weight of up to 5 kg, including TV and IR cameras and etc.told the source.
According to the company "Legion Aero", the drone can be deployed and easily controlled by one person. In the transport position, it is placed in a specialized container carried by most motor vehicles.
Russian expert in the field of unmanned systems Denis Fedutinov, commenting on the new development, noted that "the duration of the flight of unmanned aerial vehicles of this type, as a rule, is only a few tens of minutes, which makes the task of increasing it very relevant." To solve it, “it is possible to use various approaches, including the use of more energy-intensive rechargeable batteries, the use of hydrogen-based fuel cells,” he added.
The proposed approach using a hybrid power plant does not provide such a significant gain in flight duration, as in the case of fuel cells, but provides greater operational flexibility, due to the possibility of fast refueling, as well as the availability of fuel in general,said the expert.

On Wednesday we made popcorn, which we all thought was very funny, especially when it kept popping out of the cooker! On Thursday we made bread, just like The Little Red Hen. It smelt delicious and everyone who walked passed the class asked if they could have some! On Friday we turned the soft bread into crunchy toast, which we buttered ourselves. Have a look at the pictures. It has been such a busy week!

Two projects in one week! Future followed up Future with HNDRXX in 2017, and the ATL rapper became the first artist in history to have back-to-back number one debuts. The eponymous LP represented his alter egos—Super Future, Fire Marshal Future, Future Hendrix—and this project, which contains 19 tracks, focuses on the melodic, r&b-influenced side of the rapper. Perhaps that is the reason why despite his prolific output, you rarely feel that he is doing too much; he is constantly switching his style up, whether it be the drug-addled ex-trapper/superstar rapper or the introspective, auto-tuned crooner. The Weeknd assists on "Coming Out Strong" as the two heavyweights shit on their haters, and on "Selfish," Rihanna features to paint a dark picture of a self-serving relationship. Other standouts include "Incredible," "Solo," "Pie" featuring Chris Brown and "You Da Baddest" with Nicki Minaj.

After water, tea is the most popular drink in the world, and it has been linked to a variety of health benefits. Studies in the past have shown that black and green tea may help lower blood glucose levels, and a recent experiment may help explain why.
As described at About.com: Diabetes, substances in black tea called theaflavins have been shown to mimic the effects of insulin in certain cells. The study, published in the February 2008 issue of the journal Aging Cell, did not test humans or any other animal, just individual cells. The researchers noted that it is unclear how much of the theaflavins from tea that people drink actually make it to the body’s cells, which could be a good topic for future research.
Interestingly, a substance found in green tea that is similar to black tea’s theaflavins was found to have a less-certain effect on cells than its black tea counterparts had.
The summary of a more direct study on tea and blood glucose levels can be found at WebMD. In this three-year-old study, both black and green tea reduced the blood glucose levels in rats with diabetes. Both also slowed the development of cataracts, and green tea helped reduce blood triglyceride levels.

Disney already took us on a one-way trip to ice cream heaven with its famous Peanut Butter & Jelly Milkshake recipe. To our sweet luck, we’re heading back there again with the Disney Parks Blog’s newest release, the legendary Kitchen Sink from Disney’s Beach Club Resort. And it looks like we’re going to need an army to finish it.
The sundae is a signature dessert from Beaches & Cream Soda Shop, a charming boardwalk-inspired eatery with a retro ambiance, ice cream-cone tables and a menu loaded with American comfort food. We’d love to tackle this monster in sunny Florida, but our kitchens will have to do for now.
Before you hit the freezer, brace yourself. The recipe calls for 23 toppings (yes, you read that correctly) and five different ice creams, but you can really let your sweet tooth (and the ingredients you actually have) lead the way.

How can You Wire a Swap?
One among one of the most popular electrical wiring thoughts is on how to wire a change. Although making use of switches in your house is quite straightforward, wiring one may well not be that uncomplicated for everyone. An ON-OFF switch is in fact quite simple to wire. There are various kinds of switches, but for this example, let us say you will be installing a single-pole toggle switch, an incredibly widespread change (along with the most basic).
You will find three colours of wires within a typical single-pole toggle switch: black, white, and inexperienced. Splice the black wire in two and join them to the terminal screws - just one on major and also the other about the bottom screw with the change. The white wire serves as being a source of uninterrupted electrical power and is particularly normally connected to a mild colored terminal screw (e.g., silver). Join the eco-friendly wire on the ground screw of the switch.
These ways would commonly be ample for making a typical switch do the job with no dilemma. On the other hand, in case you are certainly not self-confident that you choose to can complete the process properly and safely you far better allow the professionals get it done as a substitute.

To wire the fan, it can be just a make a difference of connecting the black wire on the ceiling fan into the black wire of the switch. If there is a lightweight, the blue wire must be linked to your black wire in the swap as well.
How can You Change a Breaker and how Would you Add a Sub Panel?
When numerous endeavor to complete these tasks by themselves, most people are recommended to hire an electrician as a substitute. It's additional difficult and as a consequence dangerous for the majority of persons to try to replace a breaker or insert a panel. To give you an idea about these types of widespread electrical wiring concerns, you would should perform on a scorching electrical panel.

With BetQL's Help, Craig Mish Placed Winning College Football Bets In Week 1
Two of BetQL's Best Bets paid off for the renowned sports radio host
As someone who takes their sports wagering seriously, I thought it would be a good idea to fire up the BetQL app this past weekend for some 4 and 5 star bets. I picked three on Saturday to record and review and here is how they fared.
NC State -17 (★★★★★) vs. East Carolina
FINAL : North Carolina State 34 East Carolina 6
Perhaps one of the easiest, and sweat-free wins on the early board Saturday, North Carolina State jumped out to a 24-3 lead and never looked back. NC State quarterback Matthew McKay became the third QB in school history to throw for more than 300 yards in his first career start. After losing 58-3 last season on the same field a year ago, this obviously was a well-analyzed selection and the day was off to a good start.
Virginia Tech at Boston College +4.5 (★★★★)
FINAL : Boston College 35 Virginia Tech 28
Turnovers were the key to this game, as the Hokies simply could not hold on to the ball for the majority of this one. Virginia Tech gave the ball away five times and allowed more than 350 yards of offense in the first half alone. This was an outright win for the underdog Eagles which put my 5 star selections for Saturday at 2-0.
Notre Dame -18 (★★★★★) at Louisville
FINAL : Notre Dame 35 Louisville 17
Savvy bettors and users of the app will note that this line had the Irish -18 on Saturday. The closing line on Monday pushed Notre Dame to -19, and in some spots -19.5. That was key for those of you who took the early line.
Notre Dame and Louisville were tied at 14 after an action-packed first quarter, and never quite pulled away until late. Irish running back Jahmir Smith scored his second of two touchdowns midway through the 4th and the score held at that point. The result: a push for those of you who got in on the line over the weekend, as historically speaking, more money comes in late on Notre Dame than virtually any other team in the country due to their popularity.
In closing, the three top plays I used on Saturday went 2-0-1, which is clearly a tremendous start to the college football season. From early indications, it looks like the BetQL App has another 5-star underdog barking this week, so it may be a good time to jump on board.

text: The elements of the Periodic Table's second and third rows show gradual property changes across the table as expected from left to right. Due to the addition of protons in the nucleus, electrons in the outer shells of the atoms of these elements have little shielding effects leading to an increase in effective nuclear charge. The effects on atomic properties are therefore: smaller atomic radius, increased energy for first ionization, increased electronegativity, and more non-metallic character. This trend continues until calcium (Z=20) is reached. At this point, there's an abrupt break. In their physical and chemical properties, the next ten elements called the first transition series are remarkably similar. In terms of their relatively small difference in effective nuclear charge over the series, this general similarity in properties has been explained. This happens as each additional electron enters the penultimate 3d shell that provides an effective shield between the nucleus and the shell of the outer 4s.

The company is in imminent danger of having its stock delisted from the Nasdaq; the market is hearing the company’s appeal of its delisting decision later this month.
The proposal is basically the same one that the company withdrew in November in the face of widespread investor opposition.
Just as with that plan, the new proposal would give the company room to issue billions of new shares.
Even after massively diluting shareholders, the company is alerting investors that it

Engineers at UC Riverside have unveiled an air-run pc memory that can be employed to control smooth robots. The innovation overcomes 1 of the most important road blocks to advancing delicate robotics: the fundamental mismatch involving pneumatics and electronics. The do the job is posted in the open-accessibility journal, PLOS Just one.
Pneumatic soft robots use pressurized air to transfer gentle, rubbery limbs and grippers and are remarkable to conventional rigid robots for doing delicate duties. They are also safer for humans to be close to. Baymax, the health care companion robotic in the 2014 animated Disney movie, Massive Hero 6, is a pneumatic robot for good explanation.
But existing techniques for managing pneumatic smooth robots still use electronic valves and personal computers to retain the placement of the robot’s shifting areas. These electronic sections increase appreciable value, size, and electricity demands to tender robots, restricting their feasibility.
To progress gentle robotics toward the foreseeable future, a crew led by bioengineering doctoral college student Shane Hoang, his advisor, bioengineering professor William Grover, computer science professor Philip Brisk, and mechanical engineering professor Konstantinos Karydis, appeared back to the earlier.
“Pneumatic logic” predates electronic desktops and at the time provided highly developed ranges of command in a selection of goods, from thermostats and other elements of climate control systems to participant pianos in the early 1900s. In pneumatic logic, air, not electrical power, flows by way of circuits or channels and air tension is utilised to depict on/off or accurate/false. In modern day computers, these reasonable states are represented by 1 and in code to set off or conclude electrical prices.
Pneumatic delicate robots need a way to recall and sustain the positions of their transferring areas. The scientists realized that if they could build a pneumatic logic “memory” for a comfortable robotic, they could get rid of the electronic memory at present applied for that reason.
The scientists created their pneumatic random-entry memory, or RAM, chip applying microfluidic valves as an alternative of electronic transistors. The microfluidic valves had been initially made to management the movement of liquids on microfluidic chips, but they can also command the movement of air. The valves continue being sealed against a force differential even when disconnected from an air supply line, generating trapped strain differentials that purpose as reminiscences and sustain the states of a robot’s actuators. Dense arrays of these valves can accomplish state-of-the-art functions and reduce the highly-priced, bulky, and electricity-consuming digital components typically made use of to management pneumatic robots.
Immediately after modifying the microfluidic valves to manage larger sized air movement fees, the team produced an 8-little bit pneumatic RAM chip in a position to control larger and more rapidly-moving tender robots, and incorporated it into a pair of 3D-printed rubber arms. The pneumatic RAM works by using atmospheric-strain air to symbolize a “0” or Phony price, and vacuum to characterize a “1” or Real worth. The tender robotic fingers are extended when connected to atmospheric strain and contracted when connected to vacuum.
By varying the mixtures of atmospheric pressure and vacuum in just the channels on the RAM chip, the researchers had been able to make the robotic engage in notes, chords, and even a entire song—“Mary Had a Minor Lamb” —on a piano. (Scroll down for video clip.)
In principle, this process could be employed to function other robots without any electronic components and only a battery-run pump to produce a vacuum. The researchers observe that without the need of positive pressure any where in the system—only standard atmospheric air pressure— there is no risk of accidental overpressurization and violent failure of the robotic or its management program. Robots applying this engineering would be specially risk-free for sensitive use on or all over human beings, these as wearable equipment for infants with motor impairments.
The paper, “A pneumatic random-access memory for controlling comfortable robots,” is obtainable in this article. The analysis was supported by the National Science Foundation.

I was reading an article in Forbes Global just before Christmas entitled ‘The Undeaded’. The article considered the great number of software companies who have been losing millions of $ and eating into their cash mountains built up by raising equity funding in the late 90’s. The software industry is of great interest to me and this made me think about the strength of their Sales Propositions. Are the companies and their products searching for problems to solve? Are their propositions delivering real business advantage for their clients?
The issue of preparing and developing strong and robust propositions which deliver advantages to the customer, is a common problem for companies and professional firms throughout the land - and one not always well addressed.
The absence of a strong, coherent proposition which benefits customers is often one of the weak links in building a successful and profitable sale and hence a viable business. A great deal of money is invested in the employment of salespeople, the introduction of marketing programmes, networking and other ‘set piece’ events to generate interest in a product or service but the return on investment is dramatically reduced because the proposition presented to the customer is weak, misunderstood and lacks ‘beef’ and ‘sizzle’!
It’s like providing a mountaineer with eight days rations for a ten-day journey. He will run out of energy before he climbs the peak. This equally applies to the businessperson who is unable to efficiently articulate his / her sales proposition with sufficient knowledge, empathy and understanding and consequently loses the sale.
The sales proposition must always be framed to meet the needs and wants of the customer. [A quick working definition of these terms: ‘needs’ are logically-based requirements; wants are deeper, emotionally-based desires]. This is achieved first by asking in depth ‘open’ questions to discover the needs and wants of the customer. It is a great (but very common) mistake to launch into telling your potential customers your proposition before understanding the relationship between their needs and wants and your proposition.
What do I mean by proposition?
The proposition is built in detail by assembling the features of the product or service, together with the advantages these features deliver for the customer. The appropriate business advantages are listed alongside together with relevant proofs to support the claim. The stronger the proofs are in supporting the advantages, the stronger the proposition and the better the impression made on the potential customer. With a thorough understanding of the features, advantages and proofs associated with the proposition, the easier it will be to ask the right questions and discover whether your proposition matches the needs of the customer. There is a strong correlation between a successful sales result and a well constructed sales proposition, professionally delivered after (and only after) the customer’s needs have been comprehensively understood and summarised.
Why not try this as a practical example?
Go to your local car showroom and show interest in buying a car and make a checklist to see if you are asked some of the following questions. These questions should be asked by the salesperson before he provides you with any information or explanation as to his sales proposition.
·What do you use your car for? ·How many passengers do you usually carry in the car? ·How many miles do you expect to travel in the car per year? ·What’s your average journey mileage? ·What kind of things do you need to carry in the car? ·What performance are you looking for from your car? ·How important is fuel consumption to you? ·How important is luxury and comfort relating to your purchase? ·Who will be the main driver of the car? ·How important is reliability of service for you? ·Are there any other things I should know about regarding your planned purchase?
There are many other questions, which could be asked to find out the needs and wants but I do not intend to cover them all in this brief article.
If the needs of the customer are to use the car for pleasure, to travel 6000 miles per year with an average journey of 10 miles and to carry one passenger occasionally, then speed may not be so important but low fuel consumption and low cost insurance might be. With good questions he might ascertain that the main user will be my wife. Comfort and good quality stereo together with a good security system might therefore be important. Can you see how by asking the questions you are building a profile of the needs and wants of the customer?
You are now able to ensure that when you ultimately present your proposition to highlight the features, advantages and proofs which match the needs of your customer, the proposition will become so much more meaningful and powerful in his eyes. Equally, in a worst case sense, if your product or service does not meet the requirements of the customer you will at least gain credibility by recommending another company or product.
My experience of visiting many car show rooms with my wife last year was not good. The salespeople asked very few questions. They supplied brochures, price lists but, critically, paid little attention to my wife who was the decision maker in this purchase as she was to be the main driver of the car. (This of course raises the subject of the decision making process itself but we will leave that for another day). What’s your experience of buying a car?
The comparative test
The next test of the proposition is to find out how it compares with your competition? What are the real advantages to the customer of your proposition against the competition? What are the values of your company and proposition versus the competition? How do these values support and relate to the marketing claims of the product or service? How do these values support the price?
The elevator test
This is the 30-second explanation as to why the customer should invest his time in listening to your proposition. The sales person should really be able to pass this test. It should feel both natural and smooth. The salesperson should ooze confidence, enthusiasm and knowledge as to what’s advantageous and distinctive about your company, product and services.
Why not try this out with three people from your organisation to see what happens? The question could be: “Tell me very briefly why I should buy from your company?” Remember they should be able to support their claims with strong proofs if asked to do so.
The reference and proof test
How many of your salespeople have information to hand about positive reference stories supporting the claims of the proposition? The stronger the proof of the proposition the stronger the case for it to be accepted. The spectrum of proof varies from the weakest, which is an unsupported verbal claim, to proof of someone with credibility personally using the product or service.
This reminds me of a true story about a glass company that launched a new range of toughened glass products. The product was given to all salespeople but one particular person achieved disproportionate sales success. The Managing Director called him for a discussion to find out why he was so successful. He explained that after finding out what the customer needed he presented his proposition and took out a large hammer from his briefcase, put the glass on the table, and hit it as hard as he could. This proof convinced the customer to buy by supporting the claims of the proposition.
The Managing Director in response bought all the sales team hammers and built this process into their sales approach, but at the end of the second year the same salesman sold more toughened glass than any other salesperson.
He was again called into the Managing Director’s office to explain what he was doing to make him the top salesperson again. The salesman replied “I knew you would be supplying all the salespeople with a hammer so I considered how I might make my proof stronger. I decided I would take the hammer out of the case put the glass on the table and ask the customer to hit the glass with a hammer”. Can you see the power of proofs in convincing the customer to buy?
The pricing test
How many salespeople and business managers can defend the price of their product or service by understanding and articulating the proposition supported by advantages, proofs and value to the customer? The greater the value of the product or service to the customer the easier it is to protect the price and retain profit margin. Remember (V) Value Added to the customer = (B) Benefits minus (C) Cost.
How many companies set their pricing by looking at the value of the proposition being delivered to the customer? I have attended many meetings where the Finance Director sets the pricing based on the profit margin he requires rather than looking at the value to the customer. Concentrating on preparing, well-constructed propositions can add significant profit to the bottom line and increase customer satisfaction by convincing the customer of the real value of the purchase.
The differentiation test
Why is your product or service different to the competition’s? The more differences you have that are advantageous to the customer the more you can place a premium on the price. If you can’t highlight any differences why should the customer buy from you?
If your sales people, business managers and directors are unable to understand, articulate and present your sales propositions in a professional, consistent and coherent manner with knowledge and enthusiasm then your marketing investment may be leaking like a burst water pipe.
A professionally crafted sales proposition that is delivered to customers in a consistent manner, with thought and enthusiasm, supported by knowledge and understanding of the product or service as to how it will be of advantage to the customer will increase sales, profitability and increase the return on your marketing investment.
·Who has responsibility for Sales Propositions within your organisation? ·How well constructed are your Sales Propositions? ·How good are the skill levels within your organisation in terms of understanding customers’ needs and wants and presenting your sales propositions in relation to those needs and wants in a way which conveys real, quantifiable business value? ·How do your propositions match those of the competition? ·How does the value of your product or service to the customer support your pricing? ·How do you set the pricing of your products and services? ·What actions are you going to take improve the quality and delivery of your Sales Propositions?

I will say this… as much as I don’t like the idea of using tax dollars to move these illegal immigrants anywhere but back to their homes, DeSantis and Abbott did score some major victories with their new plans of sending illegals to DC, Chicago, New York, and of course, Martha’s Vineyard. Not only has it helped expose Biden’s massive and unprecedented border crisis, but that Martha’s Vineyard situation literally RIPPED the mask off the faces of rich, white liberals and exposed them for the scumbag, racist elites we’ve always known they were.
The migrants have already been booted off the island. Trust me, those rich white liberals wanted NOTHING to do with “housing” migrants on an island that is 80 percent white, and also voted 80 percent for Joe Biden.
See a pattern there?
They’ll walk the walk, and put signs in their front yards about “refugees” and “BLM” but when it comes to actually living next to “migrant filth,” no way. It ain’t happenin’. There’s no room at the sprawling mansions for any of those “brown” people unless they’re scrubbing toilets or mowing the lawn.
It exposed these elitist liberals in a way they never wanted to be exposed.
Thoughts and prayers to the people of Martha's Vineyard, who are under a state of humanitarian crisis thanks to the presence of 50 illegal immigrants.
— Ben Shapiro (@benshapiro) September 16, 2022
To leftists, sending 50 illegal immigrants to Martha's Vineyard is worse than the holocaust.
— Tim Young (@TimRunsHisMouth) September 16, 2022
It took just 50 illegal aliens landing in Martha's vineyard to get liberals to have a full-on blowing into a brown paper bag panic attack and to start comparing a taxpayer funded charter jet island trip to the Holocaust.

And now, we’re hearing from a Telemundo reporter that in private, Martha’s Vineyard citizens told her they were not thrilled at the idea of “migrants” on their island.

Never be fooled, Democrats are the most intolerant, racist people on the planet… and this incident in Martha’s Vineyard proves it.
