Written and performed by Lizzie Hopley
Presented by Warehouse Theatre Company, Critical Mass and Eleanor Lloyd
Warehouse Theatre, Croydon
Already winner of a British Council Plat du Jour Award, this play, which was developed through workshops in Southwark schools, sets out to satirize the media-led world of gossip magazines, reality shows, makeovers, cosmetic surgery and instant celebrity. It is a one-woman show that runs for just about one hour.
Writer Lizzie Hopley has given herself as performer, already on stage when the audience comes in, the challenge of sustaining our interest in a piece that takes a long time to disclose its plot and gives her no other characters to interact with, except on her mobile. At the performance I saw, with a very thin house peopled largely by critics, if one could judge by the number of notepads, she succeeded only because she never let up for a moment.
Pramface is a girl, a female chav - a chavette. The word is used, apparently, to identify someone whose looks are 'more suited to pushing a pram round a housing estate'. This girl is obsessed with celebrities, not any single one but all those faces in the gossip magazines. She takes the lot - piled in their hundreds around and on a metal desk, along with boxes of Cheerios, from which she snacks from time to time. They form the set designed by director Sarah Chew.
Pramface doesn't seem to be interested in her celebs' lives. She just cuts out photographs and sticks them in her many scrap books under headings she invents to match different looks.
Which faces fit being 'celebrities'? Which don't? Was that the problem for her neighbour, young Danny Wells? Up for Star Search, a TV talent show like Pop Idol, not only has he been chucked out as lacking the 'It Factor' but a magazine has labelled him as 'Arcade face' - no celeb he, his face is more suited to playing slot machines in penny arcades.
Slipping off Pramface's jacket Hopley also plays the pretentiously overdressed editor responsible. (The setting's metal desk is part of her life, not Pramface's.) We see her bullying an editorial meeting and on the telephone to 14-year old Danny's mother after he has slashed his face and cut out his tongue, gaining celebrity of a kind. She pretends concern but wants a ghoulish story.
Pramface doesn't seem to get on with the neighbour in the flat beneath, she periodically turns up her radio to remind her not to overdo the noise down there. It is only slowly that we realise it is not a neighbour but the journalist herself, kidnapped and kept imprisoned after being got there with the bait of an interview. It was Pramface pretending to be Danny's mother Cherie who had been on the phone.
It is a nice little twist and, of course, it is good to see the exploiting media get their come-uppance - but what happens next? The play ends before it has to face that problem.
What Hopley does do is make us accept Pramface on her own terms. We don't get a chance to find her funny, the performance is so relentlessly in-yer-face. Even the journalist, though more of a caricature, is so out of her depth and living by knee-jerk reaction in her media world that it she more sad than comic.
At an hour long, this piece holds; but that is about as long as it could do so. I can't help wondering what was discovered at those Southwark workshops: it doesn't give us much illumination on either character's life. It never gives us a confrontation. The issues it raises are left to us to think about: the play does not explore them.
I can see why it had such a success in Edinburgh. Rushing from venue to venue and packing in as many shows as possible, Hopley's attack would seem even more forceful and refreshing, especially when set against an increasing proportion of stand up comics at the Festival and on the Fringe. The tendency to shorter and shorter plays, especially when one-person shows, is making the play move much closer to revue sketch and the stand-up and too often reducing both content and storytelling.
If you are close to the Warehouse, or wherever else it may be playing in future, it is worth your attention but probably not really worth the effort of crossing from the other side of London to see it unless you are as theatre obsessed as I am.

I had mixed feelings going into this movie. On one hand, I loved Legos as a kid and I wanted this to be spectacular. On the other hand, its trailers looked funny but it felt a bit kiddish for me. On the other other hand, it’s gotten some stellar scores so far. So, I was kind of in the middle. Will it please? Or disappoint?
The gist is that a relatively normal and un-special Lego man named Emmet (Chris Pratt) gets thrown into a huge battle to save the world. He’s from a world where you follow instructions and must somehow learn to create from Lego blocks using only his imagination. He’s joined by the rebellious Wyldstyle (Elizabeth Banks) and his new mentor Vitruvius (Morgan Freeman). Also on their team include Batman (Will Arnett), Wonder Woman (Cobie Smulders), Superman (Channing Tatum), and Green Lantern (Jonah Hill). The villain of the story is Lord Business (Will Ferrell) and the leader of his troops, Bad Cop (Liam Neeson).
There’s a lot here for both young and old audiences, which was one of my first concerns. Kids will love it, obviously, but I also found a lot here to laugh at. A lot of it is actually pretty subtle stuff too, smarter than the average CGI film. Pratt in the lead role is fantastic, especially in the quieter moments. Arnett, Banks, and Freeman all deliver great voice performances as well.
And a special shoutout to Will Ferrell. It’d be easy for him as Lord Business to replicate a style similar to his Mugatu in Zoolander, aka a big exaggerated voice and maniacal laugh. But he plays it a little more realistic, which pays off bigtime in the end.
And the movie actually gets kind of deep, even from the beginning. Emmet, who thinks he’s just an average builder, finds out that his friends don’t even know anything about him or even realize he’s gone. The moral of the story that kicks in towards the end makes this story really gratifying.
Visually, the film takes some getting used to, but it’s super colorful and the style is definitely unique. There’s a lot to look at, too, and it keeps you always entertained.
What doesn’t work?
The humor can be a little hit and miss, as it’s trying to please both audiences of adult and children. A few of the physical gags especially had me roll my eyes.
Also, the people behind me were jerks. I won’t hold that against the movie though, but it did detract from my ability to get immersed in it.
The Lego Movie is really fun. It’s not going to win any awards but it’s a fun adventure and is pure escapism. A deeper emotional story starts to appear and kind of sneaks up on you. Visually, this movie is incredibly unique and will likely spin off into franchises (though hopefully they retain the spirit of the original). If you’re looking for some laughs and a fun night, The Lego Movie won’t disappoint.

WELLS A tract of land containing 200 acres has been bought by the water commissioners of Norfolk, Va., as a site for the gangwell system at a cost of $12,000. Twenty-four wells will be driven at a distance of 100 feet apart, with 2-inch well tubing. The supply of water will thus be increased to 10,000,000 gallons daily. For the use of Berkeley. Cal.,two new artesian wells ‘have been bo_____ed in Wildcat Canyon by the Alameda Water Company. One gives a flow of 97,000 gallons a day and the other 87,000. Nine wells will be bored. The two new ones will enable the Alameda Water Company to supplyall of Berkeley with water. At University, Miss., an artesian well supplying 50,000 gallons of water a day has been bored on the university campus. The temperature is 62.6 degrees F’ahrenheit.

|Reviews for Stargate Reopened|
| Beyogi chapter 8 . 1/13/2013
If I had to guess I'd say the goauld don't use cyber warfare because they can't use it. Their systems are probably isolated and you'd need a hacker on the ship to do something. Hackers are creative minds and you can't have something like that in underlings.
The Tollans have no excuse... except maybe that they're too peaceful for their own good. :D
Thank you for writing this captivating story, I can't wait for the next chapter,
| Beyogi chapter 6 . 1/13/2013
Um... where did they go? They need the Abydos gate for the Tollans... maybe Heliopolis? I guess they could use that as a stage.
Thank you for writing this awesome, captivating story,
| Mortimer Grimm chapter 1 . 12/12/2012
Can't wait for the next chapter! I really like this story! :)
| Detective Ethan Redfield chapter 8 . 12/7/2012
Not bad, not bad at all. Hope you update again someday.
| Sarcasm Dragon chapter 8 . 11/20/2012
Very interesting story. I found it rather disconcerting at first that the story was not centered on SG-1 or any specific team, but once I accepted that this story was not character driven (despite using characters for perspective) it was enjoyable for what it was.
| Sarcasm Dragon chapter 6 . 11/20/2012
| Guest chapter 8 . 11/13/2012
Please try to update soon.
| FranticHamster chapter 8 . 11/2/2012
this story is awsome very well thought out plot great reimagining of the story still sticking to the general plot but different enough to keep me guessing i even thought everyone's favorite jaffa was going to kick the bucket. can not wait for more.
| Lazarus.357 chapter 2 . 10/15/2012
Grin - I was just pointed here by a reviewer. Nicely Done! Sierra Hotel, Gentlemen! - or Ladies, since, after all, one can never tell about nom-de-nets, and I most assuredly do not wish to insult anybody.
You've got my vote as one of the best SGC AU stories I have ever seen. grin - too bad you weren't at the writing committee.
Only point I'd make, why not pull the gate closer to the surface, rather than excavate such large cargo elevators?
| NightWithMoon chapter 8 . 10/12/2012
I am very, very impressed with this story so far. It is a tad bit slow, but you've managed to add a human and realistic side to the story that a tv show couldn't hope to match. What's more is you've managed to do well with excellent writing.
I very much look forward to any updates.
| Danyael Prince chapter 8 . 9/20/2012
I'm really hoping that we get to see more chapters soon... :)
| Hawkin chapter 8 . 9/17/2012
Amazing work. Seriously amazing. I hope you are still planning to write the rest of this story!
I'm waiting for the next chapter impatiently!
| Obi1Nemogbr chapter 8 . 9/10/2012
Teal'c turns up. Looking good.
Nice to see SGC using some advanced tech compared to the series.
| Obi1Nemogbr chapter 2 . 9/10/2012
Much better. Stargate had alot of potential, but too many constraints.
SG1 also became an albatross to all their allies. Earth was saved and all the others became extinct.
| Mementox chapter 8 . 9/8/2012
Great story. I rally like your ideas. Please update soon!

With goals from Gabriel Jesús and Firmino, the “Canarinha” beat the “Albiceleste” in Belo Horizonte.
The National Team of Brazil beat Argentina 2-0 on Tuesday, 2nd of July, for the CONMEBOL Copa America’s Brazil 2019 semifinal and advanced to the final which will be played next Sunday at the Maracaná Stadium in Rio de Janeiro.
With goals from Gabriel Jesús (19 FT) and Roberto Firmino (26 ST), the team managed by Tite overcame, in a very difficult game, played at the Mineirao stadium in Belo Horizonte, the Argentinean team which did not surrender and fought from the begin to the end.
However, Brazil was more effective and scored two goals, one in each half, to get through the final match that already expects the winner of the game between Chile, current America´s champion, and Peru.
· Brazil has never lost at home against Argentina in official matches (9V 2E); they accumulate eight games without losing at home against Argentina in all competitions (7 wins and 1 draw).
· Brazil has knocked Argentina out of the CONMEBOL Copa America the last five times they have played; the previous occasions had been in the quarterfinals of 1995 and 1999, and in the finals of 2004 and 2007.
· Brazil overcame the CONMEBOL Copa América semifinals the last seven times they reached this stage; the last time they got out this instance was in 1979, against Paraguay (at home and away games).
· Brazil does not lose in a CONMEBOL Copa América game after an opening score since 1979, when they lose in La Paz 1-2 against Bolivia; 52 matches have been played since then (43 wins and 9 draws).
· Argentina achieved 10 more shots than Brazil (14-4), including two in the post; however, the Brazilians scored in two of the four occasions they attempted in the game.
· Roberto Firmino assisted the first goal and scored the second one for Brazil against Argentina; the striker has participated in five of ten goals for the Brazilians in the Copa América 2019 (he scored two goals and gave three assists).
· Gabriel Jesus had not scored for an International official match (excluding penalties) after nine games (5 of the 2018 World Cup and 4 of the 2019 Copa America); the striker had not scored since October 2017, against Chile for the qualifiers to Russia 2018 (2 goals).
· Dani Alves played his 18th game for the CONMEBOL Copa America against Argentina; He has reached the top five players who have played the most for Brazil in the Copa America.
· Lionel Scaloni is the first Argentina´s coach to lose his first two duels against Brazil in all competitions since Cesar Luis Menotti in 1975 (4D).

Unreleased & Cancelled Video Games across many platforms.
Welcome to Games That Weren't!
We are an Unreleased and Cancelled Video games archive with prototypes, developer history and assets for many computers and consoles of all ages. A non-profit large archive dedicated to preserving games that were never released to the public. Sharing history and stories from the developers, assets and more before it is too late. GTW has been preserving video game history since 1999.
Within the book is an in-depth and detailed 10 page story about the unreleased Nintendo 64 edition of Frogger 2 by Interactive Studios. We spoke to Andrew and Philip Oliver, Andy Eder, Darren Wood, Matt Cloy and Steve Bond about the cancelled platform development due to cartridge commitment costs.
Whilst researching about the game, Philip Oliver very kindly dug out a number of photos and pictures of assets from around the time of the game’s development, including an unused advert showing the N64 as a release platform. Not everything could be included in the book, so we have added it here as bonus DLC, including a number of screenshots which we obtained that were not used. Continue reading →
Within the book is an in-depth and detailed 12 page story about the unreleased Stunt Car Racer Pro, the sequel to the classic Microprose game by Simergy and Lost Toys for the Microsoft Xbox, PC and Sony PlayStation 2 platforms. We overall speak to Geoff Crammond, Alex Trowers, Ben Carter and Glenn Corpes about the project which was sadly never to be and never picked up by any publishers at the time.
Just seeing all the Halloween posts today, I wondered if there were that many Halloween/Horror related games in the GTW archive, so decided to have a bit of a delve and was quite surprised just how many cancelled titles there were.
So here is a quick post to share and highlight 25 Horror/Halloween themed games we have covered over the years:
Within the book is an in-depth and detailed 8 page story about the unreleased Gazza 2by Active Minds for the Amstrad GX4000. We spoke to Adam Waring, Chris Pink, David Colley, Julian Rignall, Matthew Regan, Paul Clansey, Rik Yapp, Richard Leadbetter, Simon Butler, John Pickford and Ste Pickford about the development and reviews that were made. The book also contains a number of specially re-pixelled screenshots by Trevor Storey from grainy screens shown in various magazine reviews of the time.
Thanks to @nearvanaman for the heads up. An entry has been available for some time over at the Hall of Light. Due for release in late 1993, this was to be a game based on the table top role-playing game by Iron Crown Enterprises and partly on the William Gibson novels. Viewed within a fully 3D perspective with an adjustable head-up-display that you view the world through.
The game was to be a mixture of role playing, puzzle and live action, controlled completely through the use of a mouse. Sort of a mix of Mercenary and Cybercon III at the time. Cyberspace was previewed in many magazines of the time, and looked incredible. A game that was potentially ahead of its time and which excited those who got a glimpse of it in action.
Within the book is an in-depth and detailed 12 page story about the unreleased Waterworld by Software Creations/Interplay for the 3DO and Sony PlayStation platforms. We speak to designer/producer Ste Pickford and developers Carleton Handley (PlayStation) and Peter Scott (3DO) about the game and its troublesome development.
Whilst working and researching on the write up for Virtua Hamster for the Games That Weren’t book, we were loaned a bunch of assets from David A Palmer for the book and later website. Part of the archive was a SEGA product catalogue which advertised Virtua Hamster.
It’s possible that it has already been digitally preserved, but we have scanned it just in case and have made it available here – showing a glimpse of many titles from SEGA for a variety of platforms, including Game Gear, Saturn, 32X and Mega Drive – even Pico too. There are likely a few other unreleased titles listed within the pages too. Enjoy! Continue reading →
As part of the launch and release of The Games That Weren’t book, we are adding assets and content that didn’t make it to print as bonus DLC content to share with you. Images are (c) David A. Palmer and used with permission. With thanks to Eric Quakenbush for the additional scans provided.
Within the book is an in-depth and detailed 16 page story about the unreleased Virtua Hamster by Peakstar/SEGA for the 32X and Saturn platforms. We overall speak to designer Eric Quakenbush, producer David A Palmer, lead developer Nick Kimberley, associate producer/artist Ben Palmer, artist Roddy McMillan and musician Paul Tankard – getting their recollections about the project.
Within the book is an in-depth and detailed 8 page story about the unreleased Spitfire Fury by The Fourth Dimension for the Acorn Archimedes. A title where very little light has been shed until now. We speak to lead developer Andrew Hutchings, polygon creator Mark Ferguson and loading screen artist Stephen Scott. The book contains a number of specially re-pixelled screenshots by Trevor Storey from grainy screens shown in the game’s magazine advert.
DISCLAIMER: We are a non-profit digitisation project, aiming to digitally preserve software and history which would otherwise be lost for good. If for any reason there is anything that you do not wish to be on the website, please contact us for removal.

Pinosylvin enhances the apoptosis of LPS (Montrer IRF6 Anticorps) preconditioned leukocytes by up-regulating ALOX 15 expression through ERK (Montrer EPHB2 Anticorps) and JNK (Montrer MAPK8 Anticorps).
indicate regulation of Alox15 mRNA expression in neuroblastoma (Montrer ARHGEF16 Anticorps) cells by histone modifications, and increasing Alox15 expression in differentiating neurons
The present study shows that rs7217186:C > T and rs2619112:G > A of ALOX15 are associated with increased risk of CAD (Montrer CAD Anticorps) in the North Indian population.
Results identify ALOX15, which was upregulated under low oxygen conditions and is associated with an increase in the rate of phagocytosis of apoptotic cells.
15-LOX-1 expression in colon and prostate cancer cells leads to reduced angiogenesis. These changes could be mediated by an increase in the expression of both ICAM-1 and the anti-angiogenic protein TSP-1.
Polymorphisms in the ALOX15 gene may influence periodontal disease pathogenesis. Hence, investigation of such polymorphisms could benefit the evaluation of lipoxins role in periodontal disease
Results suggest an evolution of ALOX15 (12/15-lipoxygenase)specificity.
Compound heterozygous mutations in DYNC2H1 (Montrer DYNC2H1 Anticorps) and ALOX15 were identified in miscarriages from two families with RPL. DYNC2H1 (Montrer DYNC2H1 Anticorps) is involved in cilia biogenesis and has been associated with fetal lethality in humans. ALOX15 is expressed in placenta and its dysregulation has been associated with inflammation, placental, dysfunction, abnormal oxidative stress response and angiogenesis.
Immunofluorescence analyses revealed that the ALOX15 protein consistently localizes to cell membrane during the course of ferroptosis. Importantly, treatments of cells with ALOX15-activating compounds accelerated cell death at low, but not high doses of erastin and RSL3

upregulation of ALOX15 occurring in response to oxidative stress in germ cells of the male mouse leads to enhanced 4-hydroxynonenal production and subsequent pathways of deleterious protein modification
The data provide the first evidence to date that small molecules that target 12/15-LOX can prevent progression of beta-cell dysfunction and glycemic deterioration in models of type 1 diabetes.
Findings suggest a pivotal role for 12/15-lipoxygenase (12/15-LOX) in both caspase (Montrer CASP3 Anticorps)-dependent and caspase (Montrer CASP3 Anticorps)-independent apoptotic pathways following global cerebral ischemia and suggest a novel therapeutic approach to reduce brain injury following cardiac arrest.
The present study investigated the roles of arachidonate 15-lipoxygenase (Alox15) in the clearance of dying adipocytes by adipose tissue macrophages.
data support that endothelial, rather than monocytic/macrophagic, 12/15-LO has a critical role in hyperglycemia-induced ICAM-1 (Montrer ICAM1 Anticorps) expression, leukocyte adhesion, and subsequent local retinal barrier dysfunction.
This study determined that 1) deletion of 12/15-lipoxygenase (LOX (Montrer LOX Anticorps)) promotes the generation of epoxyeicosatrienoic acids, the cytochrome P-450 (Montrer CYP Anticorps)-derived metabolites in postmyocardial infarction (post-MI) healing; 2) acute exposure of fatty acids to 12/15-LOX(-/-) mice drives leukocyte (neutrophils and macrophages) clearance post-MI; and 3) metabolic transformation of fats is the significant contributor in leukocyte clearance
These data suggest that systemic inactivation of the Alox15 gene normalizes the reduced fertility of male Sec46Ala-Gpx4(+/-) mice by improving the motility of their sperm. If these data can be confirmed in humans, ALOX15 inhibitors might counteract male infertility related to GPX4 deficiency.
The 12/15-LOX plays an important role in the metabolism of eicosanoids in response to allergen-induced airway inflammation.
12/15-LO-derived oxidized lipids regulate histone modifications associated with profibrotic gene expression in MCs (Montrer SMCP Anticorps), and 12/15-LO can mediate similar actions of TGF-beta1 (Montrer TGFB1 Anticorps) and diabetes.

At this point we had already put out a call for submissions and accepted several pieces of work. Jane and I, both passionate about the anthology, decided to continue with the project and pursue other publishers. A month or so later, I was approached by an experienced anthology editor regarding the possibility of a prose poetry anthology, and on account of long delays in response to my messages, it took over six months before I could confirm that there was not, in fact, a publisher to hand. To clarify the time frame, it was spring 2009 before I learned that there was no publisher in the wings for the anthology, whichever editors were involved.
If you've been reading this blog, you'll know that in spring 2009, or, more specifically, March, was when my father unexpectedly died, which occasioned a week's visit then and another two weeks' visit the following month. When I started to catch up with my life in May, I realized that in my new circumstances, I had too much on: my first book coming out the next month, the second book scheduled for January 2011, and an anthology of experimental/post avant UK women's poetry for Shearsman due out in 2010. That's not to mention my teaching for Bath Spa University and The Poetry School or my reviewing.
Of course, all those commitments were made alongside the prose poetry anthology, but with my father's death, I would now be even more involved in my family's lives back in Illinois, what with supporting my mother and helping her to move from the house she's been living in for thirty-five years, more frequent visits, etc.
So sometime in late May/early June, I called Jane and told her I needed to relinquish the project to her. We met in London last week to talk about where the anthology would go from here (I'm still doing what I can to support the anthology in my reduced position), and Jane is well organized to take sole responsibility. She's begun wading through past submissions, rejecting some, accepting others, and will shortly approach a publisher or two we've discussed about the book. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Jane at prosepoetryanthology (at) gmail (dot) com.
I hope someday to be involved in editing another prose poetry anthology, but I think given my other commitments and plans, that's a long way off. All my best wishes to Jane for what I expect to be an invigorating, wide-ranging collection.


Among the numerous innovations that will come into force starting from the next world championship in 2022, Formula 1 will introduce the use of fuel E10; the latter, which contains 10% ethanol, will be only the first step towards the continuous search for a new generation of ever more sustainable F1, which has as its main objective the achievement of power units powered by fuels 100% sustainable.
Specifically, the premier class of motorsport has in fact presented the project Net Zero Carbon, i.e. the development in the laboratory of a new gasoline which, in addition to keeping the performance and performance of the power units intact, will also be able to contain greenhouse gas emissions by at least 65% compared to gasoline of fossil origin. All this thanks to the scientific creation of a fuel that aims to exploit components from a carbon capture system, from municipal waste or from non-food biomass.
– Formula 1 (@ F1) October 5, 2021
A research that will be able to fully materialize from 2030, but which will begin to be constantly introduced from the start from 2025, the year that will mark the beginning of this new era dedicated to sustainable fuels. All in full compliance with an increasingly green philosophy devoted to protecting the environment and fighting pollution. Specifically, it is estimated that in nine years there will be 1.8 million cars in the world, and only 8% of these will be electric. Consequently, Formula 1 wants to study and introduce these solutions not only for its own class, but also and above all to provide a global contribution with regard to the public transport.


According to reports by security firm Symantec, the US National Security Agency (NSA) has already lost hacking tools to a state-owned hacker group in 2016. The software comes from the fund of the NSA hacking department Equation Group. They are said to have been used by the Advanced Persistant Threat (APT) Buckeye, which is assigned to the Chinese Ministry of State Security, since 2016 against targets in Europe and Asia. In 2017 similar tools were released by the hacker group The Shadow Brokers.
Buckeye is said to have used the NSA backdoor Doublepulsar against targets in Hong Kong, Belgium, Luxembourg, Vietnam and the Philippines. There is no evidence that the US has been attacked by its intelligence programs, according to the report. Symantec suspects that the attackers believed that the US had either developed protective measures against the in-house tools or simply did not want to be exposed.
The Doublepulsar version used by Buckeye differed from the version published in April by The Shadow Brokers: they had newer versions of Windows and additional camouflage features, Symantec writes in the investigation. According to Symantec, the changes could well have come from the malware’s NSA authors.
China and the NSA tools
How Buckeye, which is also called Gothic Panda, Threat Group-0110 or simply APT3, before the leak by The Shadow Brokers could get to the NSA tools is unknown. Symantec speculates that Buckeye may have rebuilt the software from traces left by an NSA attack. But you could also simply come from a badly secured server of the Equation Group or have been lost in an attack.
The assignment of hacker attacks, especially to APTs, is a complex undertaking. Symantec assumes that it is the Chinese APT due to the combination of the NSA backdoor Doublepulsar with Buckeye’s typical malware such as Pirpi. Symantec has since the release of Buckeye by the US in 2017, no activity of the hacker group more, but the NSA malware has continued to be used. Symantec speculates that Buckeye has redistributed tools to another group in China or could continue to work with new tools
However, the case can also be seen as further evidence of the complexity of assigning attacks: if the attackers use stolen tools from other APTs or monitor hackers and take over their programs and attack techniques, this makes the assignment more difficult. This is usually based on clues such as the tools used, the timestamps in the software, the actions of the attackers or the agenda of the respective country.

Dec. 30 (Bloomberg) -- Most emerging-market stocks rose, paring the benchmark index’s first annual decline since 2008, as better-than-estimated U.S. economic data offset concerns over Europe’s debt crisis.
Five stocks rose for every four that fell in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, which gained 0.1 percent to 914.99 as of 11:54 a.m. London time. The Shanghai Composite Index climbed 1.2 percent, trimming its drop this year to 22 percent. The Micex Index jumped 0.7 percent in Moscow. The BUX Index slid 1.1 percent in Budapest as parliament approved a law that may curb the central bank’s independence and threaten negotiations on an international aid package.
MSCI’s emerging-markets index has slumped 21 percent this year, while global equity markets have lost $6.3 trillion in value. Data yesterday showed U.S. home sales rose more than economists forecast and jobless claims dropped over the past month to a three-year low. Figures next week may show European manufacturing shrank for a fifth month.
“The recession risk is significantly reduced” in the U.S., Bob Parker, a senior adviser at Credit Suisse Asset Management, said in an interview with Bloomberg UTV today. “I call 2012 a year of moderate growth for America and Asia and a year of very slow recovery from a difficult position in Europe.”
The MSCI gauge’s slump this year is the first since a 54 percent slump in 2008, when Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. collapsed amid the worsening credit crisis. The developing nations gauge trades at 10 times estimated profit, down from 13.3 times at the end of 2010.
The Shanghai Composite Index rose today even after HSBC Holdings Plc and Markit Economics’ purchasing managers’ index, a gauge of manufacturing, showed a reading of 48.7 for December. That compares with a preliminary result of 49 reported on Dec. 15 and a final reading of 47.7 for November. A reading below 50 indicates a contraction.
OTP Bank Nyrt., Hungary’s largest lender, led declines in Budapest, sliding 1.9 percent as parliament approved a central bank law over the opposition of the International Monetary Fund and the European Union, which cited the legislation for suspending bailout talks earlier this month.
The forint weakened 0.6 percent against the euro, extended its 11 percent annual drop, the biggest slump since at least 1999.
Poland’s zloty depreciated 1.2 percent versus the European common currency. The WIG20 Index slid 0.4 percent in Warsaw.
The lira appreciated 1.7 percent against the dollar as Bloomberg HT television reported that Turkey’s central bank sold $750 million in its daily dollar auction.
The rand strengthened 1 percent as gold rebounded, extending an 11th annual gain, in London.
The BSE India Sensitive Index, or Sensex, retreated 0.6 percent in Mumbai.
The extra yield investors demand to own emerging-market debt over U.S. Treasuries rose six basis points, or 0.06 percentage point, to 425, according to JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s EMBI Global Index.
The Markit iTraxx SovX CEEMEA Index of eastern European, Middle East and Africa credit-default swaps fell one basis point to 348, according to data provider CMA.

9-day ski touring expedition in Qupa, a mountain at 6188 m in the Cordillera Blanca, in Peru, together with an IFMGA Mountain Guide.
At 6188 m, Qupa (also known as Copa) is among the highest mountains in the Cordillera Blanca, at the heart of the Peruvian Andes.
The Cordillera Blanca is located in the Ancash Region, in the North of Peru and it’s the highest tropical mountain range in the world. It has sixteen peaks over 6,000 meters. Most of them belong to the protected area of Huascaran National Park.
This is a unique ski touring expedition in Peru. Our main objective during this trip will be to reach the summit of Qupa and ski from there. It is a strong sport challenge.
I love this area because it’s the biggest Andean forest. In fact, it is an excellent area for bird watching.
We’ll start our trip in the city of Huaraz. Then we’ll drive to base camps of Pisco and Qupa, crossing very nice and small Peruvian villages. It is still a traditional area. Actually, the North of Peru is more authentic than the South, which is more massively touristic.
Please contact me if you want to be a part of this 9-day adventure. You can find the complete program below for further details. I’m sure we’ll have an amazing time surrounded by stunning landscapes.
Accomodation in an hotel in Huaraz.
The first day we get to the base.
The second day with the moraine.
The third we climb the summit and descend.
Option: it is possible to do it in 2 days. It is tiring but I prefer this option. We can ask the help of porters.
Anyway, it is a very nice ski experience.
This is the goal of our week trip.
The first day we get to the base camp.
The second day we get to the high camp.
The third day we climb the summit and descend to the base camp.
The fourth day we finish the expedition.
UIAGM/AGMP Mountain Guide from Peru.
I've been a UIAGM guide since 1999, and have experience climbing and guiding along the Andes in Peru, Chile and Bolivia, and in the Alps.
I'm also specialized in mountain photography and film-making.
So contact me and I'll guide around the best of the Andes in Peru!

Placer County held a groundbreaking ceremony Wednesday, March 25 to celebrate the start of construction on an interchange that will eliminate Highway 65’s last intersection with traffic signals between Interstate 80 and Lincoln.
The interchange is being constructed at the intersection of Highway 65 and Sunset Boulevard. It is scheduled to be completed by the fall of 2010.
‘This is going to be a huge improvement to South Placer,’ Robert Weygandt of the Placer County Board of Supervisors told more than 100 people who gathered for the groundbreaking ceremony.
‘Think for a moment what a difference the interchange will make,’ said board Chairman F.C. ‘Rocky’ Rockholm. ‘It will reduce traffic congestion significantly, and help make the highway safer.’
Other benefits include:
Helping ensure areas west of the highway continue to have a reliable water supply by relocating a Placer County Water Agency waterline that runs under the highway and replacing it with a new waterline;
· Creating more than 60 construction jobs;
· Improving traffic circulation for businesses in the surrounding area; and
· Giving the area’s economic development efforts a boost.
The last benefit is particularly important to Placer County because the Highway 65-Sunset intersection is an important gateway to the county’s Sunset Industrial Area.
The Sunset Industrial Area is a business center created by Placer County to generate primary-wage-earner jobs and help fund county services. It covers nearly 8,000 acres along the Highway 65 corridor between the cities of Roseville, Rocklin and Lincoln.
‘This will be a huge incentive for this area to develop even more quickly,’ Supervisor Weygandt said of the interchange.
Jody Jones, District 3 director of the California Department of Transportation, spoke during the ceremony, saying that her agency considers the project a shining example of cooperation among agencies. Rocklin City Councilman Peter Hill and Roseville Councilman John Allard also emphasized the spirit of cooperation in their comments.
”It has been a joint effort,’ Councilman Allard said.
Councilman Hill said the interchange will be a key entryway to the city of Rocklin.
‘This is an important regional project,’ added Placer County Executive Officer Thomas M. Miller, the event’s master of ceremonies.
The project will include a six-lane overpass to take Sunset over the highway and will allow for Highway 65 to eventually be widened to eight lanes with auxiliary lanes.
The interchange will have a partial-cloverleaf design with a circular onramp to move westbound Sunset traffic to the highway’s southbound lanes and a circular onramp for eastbound motorists on Sunset who want to head north on the highway.
The Placer County Public Works Department is sponsoring and implementing the project. The county’s construction contractor is RGW Construction.
The total cost of the interchange is projected to be approximately $25 million. The total includes construction, right-of-way, design, construction-management and other costs.
Placer County, Rocklin and Roseville are contributing funding through the Highway 65 Joint Powers Authority, an agency they created to help finance four interchanges along Highway 65.
Funding for the JPA comes from traffic-mitigation fees paid by new developments. The interchanges at Stanford Ranch Road-Galleria Boulevard, Pleasant Grove Boulevard and Blue Oaks Boulevard have already been built.
During the groundbreaking ceremony, several speakers thanked the United Auburn Indian Community for helping fund the Sunset Interchange. It contributed approximately $4.7 million to the project.

KINGWOOD – There is a dramatic rise in Lyme Disease in Preston County and West Virginia, Dr. Fred Conley told members of the Preston Health Board last week.
Jeannie Welch, a public health nurse at the Preston County Health Department, agreed. She said the deer tick (or blacklegged tick) is the culprit. “Their larva is very tiny, about the size of a poppy seed,” she said.
Welch said ticks can be found year round, even in winter. She said they can be brought into the house by pets or people. “Ticks hitch rides on clothing. If a tick is on a blade of grass and you brush against it, it will hitch a ride.”
Although the Center for Disease Control does not have 2017 numbers posted for the state or county, its 2016 numbers indicate 368 cases was reported state wide.
In a memo, Dr. Rahul Gupta, commissioner and State Health Officer, stated that in 2017, 675 confirmed and probable cases of tick borne diseases were reported in West Virginia, of which 96 percent were Lyme disease. “West Virginia will report the highest number of Lyme disease cases on record in 2017,” Gupta wrote.
According to the CDC, Lyme disease is transferred to humans through the bite of infected blacklegged ticks. Typical symptoms include fever, headache, fatigue and a skin rash called erythema migrans. If not treated, infection can spread to joints, the heart and the nervous system.
Welch said after being outdoors take a shower, wash your hair and check for ticks. “Check your feet, arm pits, behind your ears, use a mirror if you have to. Check your children’s hair,” she said. “Wash your clothes in hot water and run them through the dryer.”
The West Virginia Bureau for Public Health recommends wearing light colored clothing when spending time outdoors to spot crawling ticks more easily. Staying in the center of trail areas helps to avoid ticks when hiking. It also recommends using an insect repellent such as DEET at concentrations of 20 percent to repel ticks.
Welch said to remove a tick use fine tipped tweezers to grasp it as closely to the skin surface as possible. Steadily pull the tick away from the skin to avoid crushing its body. Cleanse the bite area with an antiseptic. If the tick’s mouth parts remain in the skin, call your doctor.
Welch said there has been a few positive tests for Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever (RMSF) in Preston County. This disease is also spread to humans through a tick bite.
According to Medline Plus, about 1 in 1,000 wood and dog ticks carry the RMSF bacteria. The bacteria can also infect people who crush ticks they have removed from pets with their bare fingers. Untreated, the infection can lead to brain damage, clotting problems, heart and/or kidney failure, lung failure, meningitis, pneumonitis (lung inflammation) and shock.
Symptoms are chills and fever, confusion, headache, muscle pain, diarrhea, light sensitivity, hallucinations, loss of appetite, nausea and vomiting, abdominal pain, thirst and a rash that starts a few days after the fever. It first appears on wrists and ankles as spots then spreads to most of the body. Not all people who are infected get a rash.
If you are bitten by a tick and have any of the Lyme disease or RMSF symptoms contact your health provider.

In Matthew 20, we find parables on the Kingdom of Heaven. The first parable concerns a man who is a grape grower. The harvest is here. The grapes need picking. Evidently, a hiring hall is available. Workers congregate for daily jobs. The owner is early. He hires several workers for a set daily wage. The workers agree to this wage. They hasten off to the vineyard. No problem here. The employer owns the property. He needs workers. Workers are available. The going wages are agreed upon. No one complains.
The owner comes by some hours later. Other workers stand around. He hires them on the same basis. They go off to pick the grapes. The same thing happens several hours later. Finally, near the end of the day, the employer sees others standing by “idle.” He wants to know why. They tell him that no one has hired them. The owner hires them. All of these groups work for the rest of the day in the vineyard.
The day ends. The workers expect their wages. Those who bore the heat of the day naturally expect higher wages. But the owner pays each worker the same agreed-upon wage, one denarius. Every thing seems according to agreed-upon contract. Each early morning worker knew what he was getting when he went into the fields. The paymaster begins with the last hired. He gives each worker the same wage.
At this, we begin to hear murmurs. “What’s this?” The last get as much as the first? Those who worked all day “grumble.” After all, it was hot out there in the fields. Those hired last did not pick as much and were not as much subject to the heat. Is this a case of injustice?
The owner is a reasonable man. We assume he owned the vineyard in good faith. He was not out to gouge the workers. One denarius for a day’s work was a good wage. They knew that or they would not have taken the job in the first place. The owner confronts them. “Take what belongs to you and go,” he tells them. But they want more than what belongs to them. The owner remarks that if he chooses to give the same wage to those who only worked a few hours, why can he not do it? If he chooses to be generous, is that not all right. Is not the money his to distribute?
This parable contains nothing of the famous “just wage” issue. It might even be said to be Marxist – “from each according to his ability, to each according to his need.” But we do not see that the owner thought those who came later needed more, though they obviously needed a job for that day. With their wives and kids at home, the owner may have thought those later hired also needed a day’s wages. In that case, he went beyond justice. In fact, he tells the first-hired, “Am I not allowed to do what I choose with what belongs to me? Or do you begrudge my generosity.”
The parable ends with the famous: “So the last will be first and the first last.” We suddenly realize that this parable is about the Kingdom of Heaven. We have overtones of Jews and Gentiles. We also see the tremendous place envy plays both in our economic dealings and in our dealings with God. There is more rejoicing over one sinner who repents than over the ninety-nine who need no repentance. We can lose the Kingdom of Heaven if we are just but begrudge generosity to others. Must God in dealing with us be only just? Must we blame Him if He is more than just? Must we be more than just?
Modern theories of society hesitate to allow room for generosity. The owner’s property does not belong to him; it belongs to the community. Here, everyone gets only what is just. No room for generosity is allowed. All ownership that would allow for generosity is unjust. The early workers were deprived of what was rightfully theirs, even if they agreed on a set wage for the day.
In a state built on “rights” and “justice,” we find little room for generosity and abundance. Everything is controlled by the state. No one receives more than others. Envy rules. The capitalist parable, as I call it, when spelled out, deals with God’s ways with us. We can save our souls to the very end, even the worst of us. What is it to me, who have borne the heat of the day? In the divine owner’s contract with us, we must accept one condition, namely, His generosity. Many a just man refuses it. He will work forever only on his own terms.

Several days after urging the U.S. to clarify its policies to ensure that targeted drone killings comply with international law, the U.N. special rapporteur on extrajudicial, summary or arbitrary executions, went further at a conference in Geneva. Suggesting that some strikes may constitute war crimes:
"[Christof] Heyns, a South African law professor, told the meeting: "Are we to accept major changes to the international legal system which has been in existence since world war two and survived nuclear threats?"
Some states, he added, "find targeted killings immensely attractive. Others may do so in future … Current targeting practices weaken the rule of law. Killings may be lawful in an armed conflict [such as Afghanistan] but many targeted killings take place far from areas where it's recognised as being an armed conflict.
If it is true, he said, that "there have been secondary drone strikes on rescuers who are helping (the injured) after an initial drone attack, those further attacks are a war crime."

Products for more brain power
Some brain-training and brain-boosting products claim that they can make you more brain power by boosting your energy, concentration, memory, reaction time, creativity, focus and more. This section is the most comprehensive listing of brain-boosting products available, but I don't necessarily think that they are all equal. Some products are made for the same purpose, some are geared towards specific tasks, and some even have specific goals in mind.
To be on the safe side, I have to say that I don't recommend any products below. If you're a beginner, you're probably better off with a basic list of brain-training, memory-boosting and meditation products. If you want to train your brain for specific tasks, take a look at our complete list of brain training, meditation and training apps. Why do I have the biggest head-ache? In the beginning, you'll probably have a headache, dizziness, nausea, difficulty concentrating and sleep problems. This is because the brain is working hard, not because it's tired. Your brain is actually having a great time, and you'll be surprised how much fun it can have. Some things I recommend: Sleep aids and sleeping pills. You need more than a little help. - A little meditation and deep breathing.

Man flown to trauma center after being hit by pickup truck in Stuart
STUART — A 33-year-old pedestrian was flown to St. Mary’s Medical Center in West Palm Beach Wednesday morning after a crash involving a pickup truck, a Stuart police spokesman said.
About 5:12 a.m. Wednesday, an officer was flagged down in the 800 block of Southeast Monterey Road, said Sgt. Brian Bossio, police spokesman.
The 45-year-old driver of a pickup truck stopped and tried to help the man who was struck. The man’s injuries may be life-threatening, according to Bossio.
A witness told investigators the man was walking on the side of the road before the crash occurred. The pickup was traveling west at the time.
Bossio said investigators saw no signs of impairment on the driver of the pickup truck or the pedestrian, who was walking west with traffic.
He said a preliminary investigation indicates the pickup truck driver didn’t see the pedestrian before the crash.
A witness in a vehicle traveling alongside the truck saw the truck swerve and heard the impact, Bossio said.
The pickup truck driver said he didn’t see the pedestrian.
Police continue to investigate the crash.

S.C., Georgia reach settlement on Savannah Harbor deepening
COLUMBIA — Fifteen hundred acres of preserved saltwater marshlands in South Carolina and a promise to step in with $1.2 million annually, if necessary, to operate an oxygenation system helped ease South Carolina environmental officials’ worries over the Georgia Ports Authority’s plans to deepen the Savannah Harbor.
“There were some difference of opinions on some final pieces, but we were able to come together,” said Curtis Foltz, executive director of the Georgia Ports Authority, after the S.C. Department of Environmental Control board voted unanimously to approve the deal reached earlier Thursday morning between the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and DHEC agency staff.
“At the end of the day we were happy to do it because it was the right thing to do,” said Foltz.
Thursday’s settlement laid to rest five main concerns South Carolina agency officials had raised when they denied the corps’ water quality permit request on Sept. 30.
The corps had said it could proceed with the $600 million project to deepen the river from 42 feet to 48 feet without South Carolina’s cooperation, but doing so was not the preferred route.
A critical objection had centered around the corps’ plans to operate Speece Cones, devices to replace oxygen in the river that would be affected by the dredging.
The devices, which are intended to prevent fish kills in the summer, are estimated to cost $1.2 million annually and run for 50 years.
South Carolina officials worried that a hiccup in federal funding in any given year would hurt the environment if the devices had to be decommissioned. But Thursday’s deal put Georgia on the hook for the expense, if ever the federal funds evaporated.
“It was very important to South Carolina,” said Foltz.
“Absent of that, which we don’t think it will ever be needed, but absent of that, the state of Georgia is going to be there to operate and maintain those Speece Cones or oxygenation systems to protect the environment,” he said.
Another hurdle cited by DHEC staff was the harbor deepening’s potential impact on wetlands. The settlement addressed that by offering to preserve more than 1,500 acres of marshland owned by the state of Georgia in Jasper County, S.C., Foltz said the offer was a significant step toward raising South Carolina officials’ “comfort level” with the project.
As for any prior lobbying, Foltz said he had not contacted DHEC board members before to the vote to urge them to support the settlement. DHEC Board chairman Allen Amsler said in an interview that neither S.C. Gov. Nikki Haley nor Georgia’s governor, Nathan Deal, had urged him to approve the proposal.
In laying out the deal to board members, DHEC attorney John Harleston said earlier concerns for the endangered shortnose sturgeon were laid to rest when the National Marine Fisheries Service issued an opinion that said the fish would not be harmed.
Other concerns with archaeological preservation of artifacts were similarly resolved with specializing agencies, he said, adding that a fifth concern about whether the corps had done an analysis of alternatives to the project was outside their scope as an agency.
“We’re not equipped to get into the consideration of all the economic, political and social aspects,” said Harleston.
He said in light of the other concessions in the settlement, it did not make sense to withhold approval based on an objection that was outside the agency’s scope.
In February the Georgia Department of Natural Resources’ Environmental Protection Division issued its own water quality certification.
Environmentalists and a top Senate Republican lambasted the DHEC’s shift as selling South Carolina down the river.
“This is not supposed to be a compromise but a permit based on the science. The science was on our side,” said Senate Transportation Chairman Larry Grooms, R-Bonneau. “And now we’ve helped our nearest competitor when it comes to international shipping, and we did it to ourselves.”
He and environmentalists said the about-face smacked of political accommodations.
“This is a classic political deal cut to the disadvantage of taxpayers in South Carolina and Georgia that could inflect lasting damage to natural resources,” said Chris DeScherer, attorney for Southern Environmental Law Center in Charleston.
Foltz contends the Savannah project will aid a proposed joint port nearby in Jasper County, one of South Carolina’s poorest counties. Sediment taken out of the river would shave $300 million off the cost of the fill needed for Jasper’s port that would have immediate access to the deep river, said Col. Jeffrey Hall, commander of the Army Corps’ Savannah district.
But Grooms argues the decision will be the death blow to the Jasper port. Grooms said he would’ve supported modified plans to dredge the Savannah. But as it is now, he doubts the Jasper port will ever be able to get the necessary environmental permits.
“You can only make limited changes to the harbor,” he said.
Patrick Moore with the Coastal Conservation League says his group will fight the decision.
“DHEC has sold South Carolina’s interests in the Savannah River down the river for 50 years and put Charleston’s port at a substantial disadvantage,” he said. “If they can’t deny this, it raises the question of whether they’ll ever deny anything.”

France's Groupe Casino has announced that it is expanding delivery options for its Cdiscount, Franprix and Monoprix businesses, in partnership with La Poste.
The retail group and the postal service company began working together in 2015, offering delivery from Franprix stores in Paris, but they have now extended this to include Monoprix stores and e-commerce business Cdiscount in certain parts of the country.
This year, the two groups will further expand their offering, with new delivery options and services in a number of cities.
"Our partnership is based on a simple premise: always innovate to propose new services and respond to the new expectations of our customers," said Jean-Charles Naouri, president and CEO of Groupe Casino.
For e-commerce business Cdiscount, Groupe Casino and La Poste are now offering same-day delivery in Strasbourg and Marseille, with plans to extend the service to Nantes and Rennes in the second half of the year.
Same-day delivery has been available in Paris and Bordeaux since July 2017, and in Lille and Lyon since December 2017.
Additionally, a new express service will be available in Paris from June, offering next-day on-demand delivery, with customers choosing a 30-minute window to receive the goods.
Cdiscount is also set to start offering delivery on Sundays in the 15 largest cities in France – initially in Paris, followed by Nice, Marseille, Toulouse, Bordeaux, Montpellier, Rennes, Grenoble, Nantes, Reims, Lille, Strasbourg, Lyon, Toulon and Aix-en-Provence.
For the Franprix urban retail banner, Groupe Casino is extending express delivery through the Franprix mobile shopping app.
The service has been available in Paris and its surrounding areas in July 2017, but will now be on offer to customers in Lyon.
Additionally, a new service is being introduced in 200 Franprix stores in Paris, where customers can complete their shopping in store, pay for the goods, and leave them at the store to be delivered to their home within the hour.
Deliveries On Foot
Meanwhile, at Monoprix, Groupe Casino says that 50% of its deliveries in Paris are made on foot. The retailer says that this service, which was first launched in November 2016, is both "practical and ecological".
Additionally, since early February, Monoprix's Shop & Go service has become available on Sundays in about 50 stores in Paris and supermarkets located in tourist areas.
The service allows customs to do their shopping, leave the goods at the delivery counter, and have them delivered to their home within three hours.
Groupe Casino says that the majority of these deliveries are made in partnership with Stuart, a subsidiary of La Poste.
However, new services could be on the way. Last year, Casino signed an agreement with online retail specialist Ocado to develop a grocery delivery service, indicating that Monoprix will be the first of its brands to take advantage of the new system.

Over the past year, the world of George A. Romero's Night of the Living Dead universe has been expanded and explored through Double Take's first ten comic book series, and if you couldn't get enough of the unique cast of characters (including little Lisa Foster and her epic insults), then you're in luck, because Double Take has announced that they will debut four new comic book series this December, featuring faces both new and familiar from the Night of the Living Dead: Revival stories.
Press Release: October 26, 2016 – New York, NY –Double Take (“2T”) has announced that it will simultaneously release four new series this mid-December. These stories will star new characters as well as familiar faces from 2T’s first ten series set in a creative universe established in the cult classic Night of the Living Dead.
While 2T’s first ten series took place in a 24-hour period in April 1966, readers this time can expect a modern update to the same universe: the new series all take place in present day. But the storytelling is still just as diverse as the first ten series, which started out seemingly as zombie stories, then transformed into other genres: comedy, sci-fi, superheroes.
New series 51, Z-Mart, and Alphabet City will continue the stories of unique characters introduced last year in Remote, Dedication, and Home respectively. And 2T will also give readers a bold, new super-powered tale in Behold.
“Primarily we want to make great content. I think, or I hope, that every publisher has that as a goal. It is one cohesive universe but we want each title to be able to stand on its own,” explained 2T’s senior Story Editor Michael Coast.
New and returning readers can binge the new stories to find the common threads this December 14, 2016.
Behold ($2.50): Superpowers like you’ve never seen before. Collect it all. Know it all. Exploit it all. If you could gain access to anything and everything—even the naked truth—what would you do?
In Behold, 2T takes on a new perspective of what it means to have a “super” power with invisible, weightless heroes.
“These aren’t traditional superheroes who fight crime or try to punch their way to a solution. We have superheroes who really think about crime and who gets to define what is and what isn’t a crime. We also wanted to make sure that every ounce of superpower has its drawback,” said Coast.

51 ($2.50): Fans of Double Take may recognize the 51-foot giantess as the sharp, witty, resourceful radio DJ Samantha Stanton from Remote. Sam returns in 51 as the queen of all media with high-profile guests—politicians, celebrities, and other public figures—in every issue.

Joint Statement for the meeting between Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong and Prime Minister Dato’ Sri Mohd Najib Tun Abdul Razak on the implementation of the points of agreement on Malayan Railway Land in Singapore (POA), 20 September 2010, Singapore
1. Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong and Prime Minister Dato’ Sri Mohd Najib Tun Abdul Razak met in Singapore on 20 September 2010 to follow up on their earlier meetings of 24 May 2010 and 22 June 2010.
2. At the Singapore-Malaysia Leaders’ Retreat on 24 May 2010, the two leaders issued a Joint Statement that they had agreed on the steps to move the Points of Agreement (POA) forward, and that both countries would embark on new bilateral co-operation, including the development of a rapid transit system link and an iconic project in Iskandar Malaysia.
3. On 22 June 2010, Prime Minister Lee visited Malaysia to discuss the land swap issue with Prime Minister Najib and conveyed Singapore’s offer on the land swap. Following the same meeting, Prime Minister Lee sent a revised land swap offer to Prime Minister Najib on 28 June 2010. Prime Minister Najib accepted the offer on 17 September 2010 and Prime Minister Lee replied on 19 September 2010 confirming his agreement. Both Leaders have agreed as follows:
- The Singapore Government shall vest four land parcels in Marina South (TS30-361T, TS30-362A, TS30-363K and TS30-364N) and two land parcels in Ophir-Rochor (TS13-1115N and TS13- 1116X) in M-S Pte Ltd, in lieu of the three parcels of POA land in Tanjong Pagar, Kranji and Woodlands and three pieces of land in Bukit Timah (Lot 76-2 Mk 16, Lot 249pt Mk 4 and Lot 32-10 Mk 16).
- The four Marina South parcels are located at the heart of the financial and business cluster in Singapore's Marina Bay, while the two Ophir-Rochor parcels are located next to the Kampong Glam Historic District, in a new growth corridor that is being developed as an extension of Singapore's Central Business District.
- The Marina South and Ophir-Rochor land parcels shall be vested in M-S Pte Ltd for joint development when Keretapi Tanah Melayu Berhad (KTMB) vacates the Tanjong Pagar Railway Station (TPRS). The KTMB station will be relocated from Tanjong Pagar to the Woodlands Train Checkpoint (“WTCP”) by 1 July 2011 whereby Malaysia would co-locate its railway Custom, Immigration and Quarantine (“CIQ”) facilities at WTCP.
- Both countries have different views relating to the development charges payable on the three parcels of POA land in Tanjong Pagar, Kranji and Woodlands. Both Leaders have agreed to settle this issue amicably through arbitration under the auspices of the Permanent Court of Arbitration. They have further agreed to accept the arbitration award as final and binding.
- Both Leaders also agreed that the arbitration will proceed on its own track, and shall not affect the implementation of the POA and the other bilateral initiatives agreed in the Joint Statement of 24 May 2010, which shall continue to be implemented.
- The Joint Implementation Team shall conclude by 31 December 2010 their discussion on the details of the implementation of the POA.
4. Both Leaders reiterated their commitment to the matters set out in the Joint Statement of 24 May 2010, including:
- The 50-50 joint venture company between Khazanah Nasional Berhad and Temasek Holdings Limited to undertake the development of the iconic wellness township project in Iskandar Malaysia.
- The joint development of a rapid transit system link between Johor Bahru and Singapore with a single co-located CIQ facility in Singapore aimed at enhancing connectivity between the two countries.
5. Both Leaders noted with satisfaction the progress on a number of bilateral initiatives, including:
- The increase in cross-border bus services between Singapore and Johor;
- The reduction of tolls at both the Singapore and Malaysian sides of the Second Link since 1 August 2010; and
- Joint co-operation on the environment and tourism, including the joint study on a cross-border eco-tourism project twinning Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve on Singapore side with the three Ramsar sites of Sungai Pulai, Pulau Kukup and Tanjung Piai at Johor under a ”One Experience, Two Destinations” concept.
6. Prime Minister Najib expressed Malaysia’s appreciation on Singapore’s decision to hand over the waterworks under the 1961 Water Agreement to the Johor water authorities free of charge and in good working order upon the expiry of the 1961 Water Agreement on 31 August 2011.
7. Both Leaders encouraged the Joint Implementation Team, led by the Secretary General of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Malaysia and the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Singapore to maintain the momentum of its work on the implementation details.
