Luminex has received US Patent Number 6,411,904, “Zero dead time architecture for flow cytometer.” The patent covers a method for detecting biological analytes quickly. In the method a circular buffer is used to store data from a flow analyzer in a number of data storage areas. The user can specify the sampling rate, method, size, and number of storage areas, and the size of the buffer, the signal-to-noise threshold, order of processing, and fixed trailing distance. In addition, the system uses logic and algorithms to permit re-examination and potential reprocessing of “old” subthreshold data improve the signal-to-noise ratio of an assay.
“This is an extremely important addition to our intellectual property portfolio,” stated Van Chandler, chief technology officer at Luminex. “Combined with patents on real-time multiplexed analysis and methods for creating distinguishable sets of microspheres, this patent ensures the continued superiority of the Luminex platform over classical flow analyzers.”
Affymetrix has received US Patent Number 6,416,952, “Photolithographic and other means for manufacturing arrays,” US Patent Number 6,391,592, “Blocker-aided target amplification of nucleic acids,” and US Patent Number 6,391,550, “Identification of molecular sequence signatures and methods involving the same.”
The first invention includes methods for sequencing, fingerprinting, and mapping biological polymers and other macromolecules using sequence-specific recognition reagents. The second covers the use of a blocking molecule to inhibit amplification, reverse transcription, or duplication of unwanted sequence. This blocking molecule can have a sequence that is complementary to the unwanted sequence. The molecule can be made of locked nucleic acid or peptide nucleic acid, as well as other nucleic acids and analogues. The third patent covers methods of analyzing hybridization data by selecting probe sets that define reference sequences, then derive useful data about the target nucleic acid or peptides molecule such as whether it encodes members of a gene family, is derived from certain genes, or contains a particular nucleic acid or peptide sequence signature.

The Fish And The Chip Restaurant, in Leicester ,went fully pescatarian last year, ditching meat products such as pulled-pork burgers from its menu. It has now closed down.
Owners left a notice on the window titled ‘There’s not plenty more fish in the sea’ – explaining how the fishing trip had changed their view on selling fish.
“Our fishing trip was great but turned out to be a bit of an eye opener…,” the sign reads.
‘The impact of pollution’
“We saw the impact of pollution is having on the oceans and fish stock and we are not comfortable running a restaurant that has an impact on our environment.
“As a result, we have decided to CLOSE the restaurant.
“But don’t worry. We are still committed to creating gluten-free, plant-based food and are really excited to share our new range very soon.
“Until then, thank you to all our loyal customers that have supported us with the restaurant.”
Dr. Joe Wills, a law lecturer at the University of Leicester who saw the sign, said on Twitter: “Was happy to see this sign this evening. Leicester fish and chip no longer wants to be part of the depletion of the oceans so it’s closed down and will reopen as a plant-based chippy!”


It’s a proud week for the Bangladeshi community in Britain as it is confirmed that British teenagers Saqlain Chowdhury and his friend Sadik have both been offered the opportunity to play in the Bangladesh Premier League.
The two teenage prodigies have been signed up by crack outfit – Dhaka based Sheikh Jamal FC of Dhanmondi and have signed professional contracts to play top flight football.
Saqlain is the son of renowned UK football coach Pervez Chowdhury (PB) and was personally trained by his father, and football personalities Harry Khan and Shamim Hussain.
17 year old Saqlain from Stepney, a student of the West Ham Academy had taken a break to travel to Bangladesh and after successfully passing a rigorous trial programme has the blessing of the Academy to pursue his dreams. Both Saqlain and Sadik will continue to study whilst plying their trade with the elite in the Bangladesh Premier Division.
The youngsters will return to the UK shortly to say goodbye to family and friends before returning to what promises to be an adventure of a lifetime. Their new team play at the Bangabandhu national Stadium
Saqlain said, “Sadik and I are so excited and will work so hard to make the best of this opportunity. I would like to thank my father, West Ham Academy, Harry Khan and Shamim Hussain along with everyone else for the love, support and influence they have had on my career.”
His father Pervez Chowdhury, better known as PB to the footballing world was emotional yet full of joy for his son’s achievement. The former Sylhet FC and Bishwanath manager added, “It is the first time Sheikh Jamal FC have signed British Bangladeshi players and this will now hopefully offer a pathway for British Bangladeshis to play football at the highest level. This is proof that hard work and dedication will open windows of opportunity and the potential to do something extraordinary are endless.”

“Lack of Specificity of an Animal Behavior Model for Hallucinogenic Drug Action”.
Pharm. Biochem. & Behav.. 1981;14:339-343.
It has been proposed recently that the occurrence of drug-induced limb-flicking (LF) and abortive grooming (AG) in cats can serve as a viable animal behavior model for the actions of hallucinogens in humans. If this is the case, such behaviors should occur reliably following the administration of drugs that produce hallucinations in humans and should not occur after administration of other, non-hallucinogenic drugs–a hypothesis that was examined in the present experiment. The frequency of LF and AG were observed in 12 cats which were given a wide range of doses of the potent hallucinogen, d-LSD (0.01-0.16 mg/kg), as well as several other compounds. The results showed that three non-hallucinogenic agents which are related to LSD m various ways, the ergot derivative lisuride, the serotonin agonist, quipazine, and the dopamine agonist, apomorphine, significantly increased LF frequency. Lisuride and quipazine also caused AG. Cocaine did not elicit either behavior. Thus, it was concluded that the proposed model cannot be regarded as specific to hallucinogenic drugs. In addition, the frequency of these behaviors, as well as their reliability and robustness, were shown to be partly dependent on the environment in which observation occurs. Hallucinogens

For CEO Tim Kopp, Terminus’ $90 million Series C isn’t just a big headline. “It’s a great validator. But it also puts the pressure on us to keep going.”
The Series C round was led by Great Hill Partners, a new investor in Atlanta’s account-based marketing (ABM) platform. Existing investors Atlanta Ventures, Edison Partners, and Hallet Capital also joined the round.
Kopp said that he was drawn to Great Hill Partner through a connection forged with Derek Schoettle, former CEO of ZoomInfo. Through the new investment, Schoettle will join Terminus’ Board of Directors, along with Chris Gaffney.
“Terminus continues to redefine how teams go-to-market, innovating how companies generate revenue in a digital-first environment,” added Schoettle in a statement. “We’ve been so impressed with this team, the company’s significant growth over the last year, its continued product innovation, and the huge market opportunity ahead. Terminus is the ABM and go-to-market platform to keep your eyes on.”
The Series C brings Terminus’ total funding to $120 million to date.
“The pieces keep coming together. We actually didn’t need to raise money for this coming year, we would have been okay to not do it. But we were sensing, and the board was sensing, that there was a bigger and bigger opportunity to go for it,” Kopp told Hypepotamus.
THE FUTURE OF B2B MARKETING
When Hypepotamus spoke with Kopp about the recent raise, he said that he had spent a part of the morning talking with author Geoffrey Moore, who wrote the book Crossing the Chasm.”
“We stand at this ‘crossing of a chasm’ moment,” Kopp said. To him, account-based marketing has become the new standard. “Instead of looking at everything in terms of leads, it is about looking at it in terms of accounts. I think it is going to be the backbone of modern B2B marketing platforms for the next decade.”
Terminus has made a name in the B2B account-based marketing space by further integrating sales and marketing. Its platform helps organize marketing data and manage points of customer engagement with ads, chat, email, and web experiences.
Kopp said that the team is also working on continuing to build out partnerships with SalesForce, SalesLoft, Outreach, and Zoom. The team is also building an office in London, which will serve as its first outside of the US.
The growth and new outside investment come after a busy few quarters for the Terminus team. In the last year, Terminus acquired two other MarTech companies, including California-based GrowFlare and Atlanta-based Ramble, making it the first account-based marketing platform to offer a native chat feature.
In addition to hiring and expanding its product, Kopp says that he is passionate about building out the remote work experience for the entire team. He told Hypepotamus that Terminus has tripled investment in training-enablement benefits for employees in the last year.

Future Predictors Of Prostate Cancer
Researchers are seeking more accurate ways of diagnosing, monitoring, and treating prostate cancer. Many of the studies focus on genes and genetic abnormalities of a cancer. Scientists have found that the product of a certain gene appears more often in advanced prostate cancers than in early stage prostate cancers. Now the goal is to determine if the presence of this gene product means that a cancer is more aggressive. Knowing this information can help doctors decide which patients may benefit from immediate treatment, and of what type. This and other genetic research will pave the way for earlier, more accurate predictors of cancer growth.
Screening For Prostate Cancer
There are no tests available with sufficient accuracy to screen populations of men for early signs of prostate cancer. However, early detection and treatment can significantly improve prostate cancer survival.
The test most commonly used to aid early detection of prostate cancer is the prostate specific antigen blood test. This is not a diagnostic test as it can only indicate changes in the prostate. If you are concerned about prostate cancer you should talk to your doctor and make an informed choice about whether to have one of the tests designed to find early signs of prostate cancer, in view of the potential risks and benefits.
There are no proven measures to prevent prostate cancer.
Prostate Cancer Lives As It Is Born: Slow
This year, more than 238,000 American men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer. In most cases, the cancer consists of small knots of abnormal cells growing slowly in the walnut-sized prostate gland. In many men, the cancer cells grow so slowly that they never break free of the gland, spread to distant sites, and pose a serious risk to health and longevity.
Evidence is growing that early treatment with surgery or radiation prevents relatively few men from ultimately dying from prostate cancer, while leaving many with urinary or erectile problems and other side effects. As a result, more men may be willing to consider a strategy called active surveillance, in which doctors monitor low-risk cancers closely and consider treatment only when the disease appears to make threatening moves toward growing and spreading.
This week, a study by Harvard researchers found that the aggressiveness of prostate cancer at diagnosis appears to remain stable over time for most men. If thats true, then prompt treatment can be reserved for the cancers most likely to pose a threat, whereas men can reasonably choose to watch and wait in other cases.
If you have chosen active surveillance, then this could possibly make you feel more confident in your decision, says Kathryn L. Penney, Sc.D., instructor in medicine at Harvard Medical School and the lead author of a report published today in the journal Cancer Research.

How Is Prostate Cancer Staged
With these tests, a stage is assigned to help decide the treatment plan. The stage of cancer, or extent of disease, is based on information gathered through the various tests as the diagnosis and work-up of the cancer is being performed.
Prostate cancer is most commonly staged using the TNM system plus the Gleason score. The TNM system is used to describe many types of cancers. In prostate cancer it has four components:
- T- Describes the extent of the “primary” tumor .
- N- Describes if there is cancer in the lymph nodes.
- M- Describes if there is spread to other organs .
- G- Describes the Gleason score and takes into account the PSA and the histologic grade of the tumor.
The staging system is very complex. The entire staging system is outlined at the end of this article. Though complicated, the staging system helps healthcare providers determine the extent of the cancer, and in turn, make treatment decisions for a patient’s cancer.
Signs That Warrant An Immediate Trip To A Doctor
Some common cancer signs that should result in a visit to the emergency room or to a doctor as soon as possible include:
- coughing up mucus tinged with blood
- blood in stools or urine
- lump in the breast, testicles, under the arm, or anywhere that it didnt exist before
- unexplained but noticeable weight loss
- severe unexplained pain in the head, neck, chest, abdomen, or pelvis
These and other signs and symptoms will be evaluated. Screenings, such as blood and urine tests and imaging tests, will be used if your doctor thinks its appropriate.
These tests are done both to help make a diagnosis as well as rule out various causes of your signs and symptoms.
When seeing a doctor, be prepared to share the following information:
- your personal medical history, including all symptoms you have experienced, as well as when they began
- family history of cancer or other chronic conditions
- list of all medications and supplements you take

How Can I Prevent Prostate Cancer
The best way to try and prevent prostate cancer is to modify the risk factors for prostate cancer that you have control over. Eat a low-fat diet that is rich in fruits and vegetables and low in animal fats. It is always a good idea to maintain a healthy weight, get plenty of exercise and not to smoke or to quit smoking.
Genomic Variant And Aggressive Disease
Using genetic, genomic, molecular, and bioinformatic tools, Prof. Wei and his colleagues analyzed data from 2,738 cases of prostate cancer. The analysis confirmed the link between the rs11672691 variant and aggressive disease.
On further investigation, they found that a certain aggressive prostate cancer version of rs11672691 called the guanine allele was linked to higher expression of two particular genes.
The two genes called PCAT19 and CEACAM21 have previously been tied to growth of cells and progression of tumors in prostate cancer.
The team also found that the guanine allele of rs11672691 influences a third gene called HOXA2. This gene contains the instructions for producing a protein that controls the decoding of PCAT19 and CEACAM21.
Using CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing tools, the researchers then showed that they could manipulate the effect of rs11672691 on PCAT19 and CEACAM21 gene expression and the aggressiveness of prostate cancer cells.
They conclude that their findings reveal a plausible mechanism for rs11672691 in aggressive prostate cancer and thus lay the groundwork for translating this finding to the clinic.
Prof. Wei suggests that further research is now needed to investigate how this gene regulatory circuit accounts for pathogenesis and progression of prostate cancer.
We think the findings may be repurposed to stratify prostate cancer patients for personalized treatment and care.

Is There A Genetic Component To Prostate Cancer
As mentioned earlier, cancer is a direct result of mutated genes that can no longer participate in the healthy development and growth and development process. For every type of cancer, there is a specific set of genes thought to contribute to it. Having mutations or abnormal variants of these genes doesnt necessarily mean that a person will develop an associated condition or type of cancer, but rather, means that their risk is increased. For this reason, possessing these mutations is considered a risk factor until the mutations start to cause a disruption in healthy gene function. When the function of a gene is altered and it begins to contribute to cancer growth, then it develops into a cause.

As Screening Falls Will More Men Die From Prostate Cancer
In active monitoring, men with localized prostate cancer do not get surgery or radiation right after theyre diagnosed. Instead, they have regular biopsies, blood tests, and MRIs to see if their cancer is progressing. If it is, they can receive treatment.
Although some oncologists advise men with early, low-grade prostate cancer to choose active surveillance and professional groups such as the American Society of Clinical Oncology recommend it many patients recoil at what sounds like lets just wait for your cancer to become really advanced. A decade ago fewer than 10 percent of men diagnosed with prostate cancer chose monitoring, UCLA researchers found. But that is changing. Now at least half of men do.
That made sense to Garth Callaghan, author of the best-selling Napkin Notes, a book of missives he tucked into his daughters lunch box. Diagnosed with early prostate cancer in 2012, he said, none of the choices seemed particularly attractive to a 43-year-old man who dreaded the possibility of side effects of surgery or radiation, including incontinence and impotence. I was completely torn. My previous experience was, just get it out of my body. But after his doctor explained that prostate cancer is grossly overtreated in the United States, I did a complete 180 and chose active monitoring.
How Active Surveillance Works
The Gleason score is just one way that doctors monitor prostate cancer during active surveillance. They also do periodic follow-up biopsies and measure PSA levels, which may rise if cancer starts to spread in the prostate. Doctors may recommend treatment sooner if PSA begins to rise quickly or if a follow up biopsy reveals a higher Gleason score or more widespread cancer within the prostate. Its an inexact science that depends on a doctors skill and experience and a mans willingness to wait for signs that a cancer poses a clear threat before opting for treatment and its potential for side effects.
Penney says she and her Harvard colleagues are among the many scientists now searching for better ways to predict which prostate cancers are likely to be lethal and which can be monitored and not treated. The answer may be found in genetic changes in prostate cancer cells that signal a higher threat. But finding a better way to predict which prostate cancers are likely to turn lethal is far from guaranteed.
Some believe its not possible, Penney says. After the cancer is diagnosed, so many things can change in unknown ways. Diet, exercise, and other lifestyle factors, for example, could affect whether low-risk prostate cancers become more aggressive or threatening over time.

What Questions Should I Ask My Healthcare Provider
If you have prostate cancer, you may want to ask your healthcare provider:
- Why did I get prostate cancer?
- What is my Gleason score? What is my Grade Group? What do these numbers mean for me?
- Has the cancer spread outside of the prostate gland?
- What is the best treatment for the stage of prostate cancer I have?
- If I choose active surveillance, what can I expect? What signs of cancer should I look out for?
- What are the treatment risks and side effects?
- Is my family at risk for developing prostate cancer? If so, should we get genetic tests?
- Am I at risk for other types of cancer?
- What type of follow-up care do I need after treatment?
- Should I look out for signs of complications?
A note from Cleveland Clinic
Prostate cancer is a common cancer that affects males. Most prostate cancers grow slowly and remain in the prostate gland. For a small number, the disease can be aggressive and spread quickly to other parts of the body. Men with slow-growing prostate cancers may choose active surveillance. With this approach, you can postpone, and sometimes completely forego, treatments. Your healthcare provider can discuss the best treatment option for you based on your Gleason score and Group Grade.

Are Older Men Undertreated
Schwartz and colleagues reviewed the treatment decisions and factors influencing them in a cohort of men with localized prostate cancer. Age, comorbidity, and Gleason score were found to be independent predictors of suboptimal treatment. It was concluded that most men older than 70 years with moderately or poorly differentiated tumors and no to mild comorbidity were given suboptimal treatment. Most of these men were undertreated, receiving watchful waiting therapy when potentially curative therapy could have been applied. With optimal treatment, clinical outcomes could have been improved.
Thompson and colleagues investigated otherwise healthy octogenarians diagnosed with prostate cancer who underwent radical prostatectomy. At the last follow-up visit, 10 patients had survived more than a decade after surgery, and 3 patients had died within 10 years of surgery. The remaining 6 patients were alive at less than 10 years of follow-up. Seventy-four percent of patients were continent. No patient had died of prostate cancer, and the 10-year, all-cause survival rate was similar to that observed in healthy patients 60 to 79 years old undergoing radical prostatectomy. These findings indicate that careful selection of patients even older than 80 years can achieve satisfactory oncologic and functional outcomes after surgery. It is important to note, however, that the rate of urinary incontinence after surgery exceeds that of younger counterparts.

Finding Out If The Cancer Has Spread
To find out if cancer has spread outside of the prostate, doctors may perform the imaging tests listed below. Doctors are able to estimate the risk of spread, called metastasis, based on PSA levels, tumor grade, and other factors, but an imaging test can confirm and provide information about the cancers location.
Imaging tests may not always be needed. A CT scan or bone scan may not be necessary for those with no symptoms and low-risk, early-stage prostate cancer, as determined with information from the PSA test and biopsy. Learn more about when these tests are recommended to find out if the cancer has spread.
For people with advanced prostate cancer, ASCO recommends that 1 or more of the imaging tests below be done to provide more information about the disease and help plan the best treatment. This includes when there is a newly diagnosed, high-risk cancer if metastasis is suspected or confirmed if the cancer has returned following treatment or when the cancer grows during the treatment period. Learn more about this guideline on the ASCO website.
Magnetic resonance imaging . An MRI scan uses magnetic fields, not x-rays, to produce detailed images of the body. An MRI can be used to measure the tumors size, and a scan can focus specifically on the area of the prostate or on the whole body. A special dye called contrast medium is given before the scan to create a clearer picture, which is injected into a patients vein.
Talking With Your Doctor
Different kinds of doctors and other health care professionals manage prostate health. They can help you find the best care, answer your questions, and address your concerns. These health care professionals include:
- Family doctors and internists
- Physician assistants and nurse practitioners
- Urologists, who are experts in diseases of the urinary tract system and the male reproductive system
- Urologic oncologists, who are experts in treating cancers of the urinary system and the male reproductive system
- Radiation oncologists, who use radiation therapy to treat cancer
- Medical oncologists, who treat cancer with medications such as hormone treatments and chemotherapy
- Pathologists, who identify diseases by studying cells and tissues under a microscope
View these professionals as your partnersÃ¢expert advisors and helpers in your health care. Talking openly with your doctors can help you learn more about your prostate changes and the tests to expect.

What Causes Prostate Cancer And Am I At Risk
Every man is at risk for prostate cancer as he ages. Although prostate cancer can affect younger men, about 6 out of 10 cases are diagnosed in men over the age of 65. The average age of diagnosis is 66. After non-melanoma skin cancer, prostate is the most common cancer diagnosed in men in the United States. The American Cancer Society estimates there will be 248,530 new cases of prostate cancer each year.

Why Does Prostate Cancer Happen
The causes of prostate cancer are largely unknown. But certain things can increase your risk of developing the condition.
The chances of developing prostate cancer increase as you get older. Most cases develop in men aged 50 or older.
For reasons not yet understood, prostate cancer is more common in men of African-Caribbean or African descent, and less common in Asian men.
Men whose father or brother were affected by prostate cancer are at slightly increased risk themselves.
Recent research also suggests that obesity increases the risk of prostate cancer.

April 20, 2016, marked the beginning of a brand new chapter in the history of the Hungarian radical right-wing party, Jobbik. The party’s leader, Gábor Vona, declared emblematic party leaders Előd Novák, István Szávay, and István Apáti shall not run for the office of the party’s vice president.
Hungarian government started building a fence on the border with Serbia to ward the immigrants off. The construction, stretching over 170 kilometers, is not in any way a solution to the problem of immigration. All that the fence will do is manifest Hungary’s separation from Europe.
On April 24, 2015, Hungarian Europe Democracy (HED) convened a workshop about “Illiberal democracies, what can the European Union do in case a member state regularly and systematically breaches European values and regulations?”.
Zoltán Kész’s victory shattered the two third majority of governing party Fidesz in the parliament. Using this supermajority, the government has implemented a new constitution and new laws curtailing the freedom of speech, human rights and the power of the constitutional court since 2010. Hungary has also become fearfully friendly with Russia regardless of the growing tensions between the EU and Putin.
Merkel’s criticism of Orbán’s domestic politics came through clearly via independent media. The visit made it very clear how far Orbán is from the mainstream European opinion on issues of democracy and rule of law.
The civil sector should gently, but firmly take hold of the current atmosphere and lead Hungary far away from Russia, and back into the heart of Europe where their people belong.
Although we tend to see the situation of the countries in East-Central Europe as one in which they are forced to choose between the East and the West, in reality, these countries do not have much of a choice.
With a new scandal involving extensive corruption the country is alienating the countries of the West and as much as Prime Minister Orbán wants to follow Putin’s footsteps, the question is whether there would be any country left which would take Hungary seriously?
The results confirmed the predictions of Fidesz victory, saw a weakening of the still formidable extreme right and led to a restructuring of the Hungarian left. Unfortunately, no liberal MEPs were elected.
Hungary’s Prime Minister Victor Orbán won his second consecutive term in a landside election last month. The governing Fidesz party managed to retain its absolute majority as the result of arguable new election laws and a highly inept opposition. Even more disturbingly Hungary’s infamous far-right Jobbik emerged as the second biggest party in the country.

Shower Drain Types
Not all showers are created equal. Today commercial shower design rivals that of the domestic environment and options allow for the finest of finishes. From stylising open plan showers, to refining the modern showering enclosure, the drainage is one of the foundational choices thats sets the tone for the rest of the room.
What is a shower drain?
The shower drain is where the waste water runs to and is removed from the washroom. Sounds simple, but when choosing your shower drain, you need to be mindful of the flow rate of wastewater. Too much water all at once, and it’s not going to drain well and will leave users stood in ankle deep water.
Types of shower drain
One of the most popular commercial shower drains today is the floor gully or Aco drain, also known as linear drains. These fit flush with the floor and usually run along the wall of a bank of showers. One long gulley can service several showers, and the fall of the shower room floor will run towards it, so that water does not stay pooling on the floor.
Another option is the circular floor drain. These are also increasingly discreet and fit flush with vinyl safety flooring or tiles to give a sleek finish. These are most often used in singular showers, and in disabled shower rooms.
Of course, the shower tray still has a strong place in the commercial washroom, providing a gently walled container complete with the correct fall towards the drain, often with a waste trap included.
Do I need a trap for a shower drain?
Most shower drains come with a trap designed to work for that specific model. Floor gullies or Aco drains have this as standard and work to prevent smells coming up through the drain pipes. Most shower drains also have a trap to catch any small, heavy objects that get lost in the shower, and to remove gathered hair.
How big is a shower drain?
Shower drains vary in size depending on model and manufacturer. As a rough guide, some floor gulley drains need to be sunk down into the floor about 156mm, and come in lengths from 600mm to 1200mm. Meanwhile, circular floor drains can be around 150mm by 150mm square.

It is quite a modern and widespread demagoguery - it will point to the elderly, families with young children or the sick and say something like: "it is right to help them," and therefore the state should support them. Supposedly because it's "humane and right."
Is it really humane and right?
Principles of humanism
For something to be humane, it must not logically be in conflict with the principles of humanity. Well, what are the principles of humanity?
They are simple: each person is unique and at the same time the same. Unique in his will, personality and form, the same in that he is human.
Therefore, there is no reason to discriminate against anyone because of their race or gender, but at the same time we cannot prohibit others from practicing discrimination.
"What is the benefit of a man who gains the whole world but loses or thwarts himself?"
- The Gospel of Luke
What good is everything we have and what we have achieved when we are dead? Useless. So human life has infinite value. However, we cannot forbid anyone to kill themselves if they so choose voluntarily. But we can persuade him not to do that.
In order to be able to treat this most precious thing — life — as best as possible, one needs freedom. Only a free decision is a voluntary decision, when the individual wants to achieve a better (subjective) state than he is in.
Humanism thus de facto rejects any violence. Violence is a disruption of voluntary, free life and decision-making. Because each person is unique, everyone has the right to live their life as they wish, to strive to achieve the goals they choose by the means they choose voluntarily. He has the right to evaluate on the basis of his opinions and does not have to (but can) take into account the opinions of others. He has the right to do as one sees fit. However, everyone also has the right to defend themselves against perceived violence and restrictions on power. An individual can defend against violence from someone else, others can defend against violence from an individual.
Everyone (whether they want to or not) will sooner or later face the effects of their actions. Responsibility is thus one of the pillars of humanism. A responsible person is also "humane."
Humanity is voluntariness!
Helping the weaker, the poorer and the more vulnerable is certainly respectable and humane, if it is a voluntary decision.
If a person claims to decide on your property without your voluntary consent, it is a robbery. Robbery is violence - it is an attempt to decide our past life, because our present property is the result of our actions (living) sometime in the past. And of course: even "a while ago" is a thing of the past.
The system of various social benefits is a system of "subsidies for people" - it is a robbery. Someone will take your money without asking you and decide on it for you. It is violence against your past. It doesn't matter how the robbery is defended. It's still a robbery. We can close our eyes on her - thanks to her defense - and tolerate her voluntarily. Considering it right that you want it to be so.
However, each human being is a unique creature - it is highly inhumane to say that "if I don't mind, it mustn't bother you either!" You have no right to speak for others unless the "others" - a certain group of people - have given you this right.
The fact that you want to pay contributions to the system of state social subsidies does not justify this system, if the state forces those who do not want to pay into this system to pay. It is not about helping the weak and helpless, but about using them for "political purposes." The weak and the sick are becoming the walking billboard of political parties.
There is nothing respectable, humane and right, because robbery is not respectable, humane and right. Those who subscribe to humanism and support (proclaim) these redistributive practices are false prophets, pseudo-humanists. He claims that something humane is that is completely contrary to the principles of humanism.
The state social system is inhumane. It is not right to rob other people.

An unprecedented tour of stunning and architecturally significant Cuban palacios, mansions, and private homes that have been meticulously preserved, previously un-photographed, and inaccessible to visitors. At a time when more travelers are rediscovering Cuba, this lavishly illustrated volume offers a different view of the island’s cultural achievements. It presents not the Cuba of Castro’s era, with its derelict buildings and peeling paint, but the opulent world of the Spanish Creole aristocracy of the colonial period, with its Mudejar craftsmanship and baroque palacios, the sugarcane plantations (ingenios) and coffee plantations (cafetales), and classically inspired grand mansions. Exceptional preservation work has kept these villas in the magnificent state in which they were first envisioned. The photographs, shot exclusively for this book, show examples in each area of the island-from the interiors and exteriors in Havana, Santiago de Cuba, Santa Clara, Cienfuegos, and Pinar del Rio to close-up details of courtyards, balconies, galleries, balustrades, grilles, and louvered doors in Trinidad, Matanzas, and Holguin. One featured home is Finca Vigia (“Lookout House”), the former residence of Ernest Hemingway.

Already have gifted The Splendor of Cuba to two friends one birthday and another on a special occasion. Both times book was an instant hit to the point that guests want to "borrow" it right away. Also received complimentary calls and emails with true expressions of joy. Almost never did I get this sort of sincere instant thank you with a gift. This booked was loved by all. Will certainly purchase again for future gifts for all my Cuban friends.
Lately there has been a growing interest in publishing books detailing the splendor of Cuba's architectural heritage. This new publication is nothing short from being a visual feast. The book is thick and full of large fully colored photos revealing the different eras of Cuban architectural heritage. The photos are accompanied by a thorough and engaging text that explains each era and its specific features. Thus, placing the beautiful buildings illustrated into their social and historical contexts. This book succeeds both as a beautifully illustrated reference as well as a stunning coffee-table book, highly recommended.
So well done from the photos taken in places that most visitors wont get to see, to the well written historical backgrounds and current state of conditions of the properties. Having recently returned from a short trip, there is the obvious decay and poverty that is so often shown. Unesco and Cuba are beautifully restoring many important buildings and areas. This book is must for anyone interested in the history and architecture of a unique place. This book exceeded my expectations.

Fam 1St Family Foundation
Fam 1st Family Foundation partners with Peralta Colleges Foundation & OAKWIFI
Oakland, CA ‒ Jan. 13, 2021 ‒ In partnership with Peralta Colleges Foundation and the City of Oakland’s OAKWiFi program, the Fam 1st Family Foundation announced today a computer giveaway that will provide 400 students with computers and connectivity to ease access challenges during the extended COVID-19 shutdown.
Just in time for the new semester, eligible families and students can apply by January 22, 2021, or until the application is closed. Applicants must live in Oakland, be enrolled in Oakland Unified School District (OUSD) or Peralta Community College District (PCCD) and reside in one of the neighborhood coverage zones included in the OAKWiFi expansion.
“The emphasis is to equip students, many of which live in the most vulnerable neighborhoods in Oakland, with the tools they need to make sure their education is not impeded by the shelter in place mandates to prevent the spread of COVID-19,” said LaNiece Jones, Executive Director of the Peralta Colleges Foundation.
Despite OUSD, Oakland Charter Schools and PCCD distributing computers and hotspot devices to students who need them for remote learning, there are still many students left without a computer and access to the internet.
400 Chromebooks will be given away to students in need courtesy of Fam 1st, which was founded in 2011 by Oakland natives and NFL athletes Josh Johnson, Marshawn Lynch and Marcus Peters. Fam 1st Executive Director Brije Gammage works with students at West Oakland Youth Center and has seen the need first hand. “Many students and families are without a computer of their own. Even with the loaner computers and hotspot devices available, many families are still struggling to look for work or even shop for groceries online,” Gammage said. “ We hope that these computers will help families and students of all ages to ease the stress of distance learning and the financial cost of purchasing a computer and internet services.”
City of Oakland’s Chief Information Officer Andrew Peterson is leading the OAKWiFi project, which is significantly expanding public WIFI coverage to parts of West Oakland, Downtown Oakland, and East Oakland along the International Blvd/ East 14th corridor to the San Leandro border.
“This partnership is an example of how our community continues to come together to meet the needs of the students and families in our city,” said Peterson. “The COVID-19 pandemic continues to marginalize many disadvantaged, underserved residents in our community. The OAKWiFi initiative provides free internet access for students, seniors, job seekers, small businesses, the underserved and the unconnected.”
Through the deployment of widespread free public WiFi to the most vulnerable and historically underserved communities of Oakland, OAKWIFI seeks to connect residents not only for distance learning but to the broader global community.
“We know that the digital divide will not be bridged by OAKWiFi alone, but we are committed to establishing new creative partnerships and finding innovative ways to provide connectivity and resources for students and families as well as seniors, small businesses, and job seekers.”

NEWPORT, R.I. (WPRI) — A Portsmouth woman accused of choking to death another woman in 2015 pleaded guilty in Newport County Superior Court to one count of second-degree murder Wednesday.
Prosecutors said Melissa Castle, now 37, strangled and killed Rachel Kilroy in August 2015 during an argument inside Kilroy’s Middletown apartment.
It was revealed in court that Castle told police “I choked her. She’s dead.”
Under the plea, which was approved by the victim’s family, Castle was sentenced to 50 years with 35 to serve in prison and the remainder suspended with probation.
“An argument between friends turned violent, resulting in the tragic death of a daughter, mother and sister,” said Attorney General Peter Kilmartin. “Rachel’s family misses her deeply every day.”
No motive for the killing was given, but while reading an apology in court, Castle alluded to struggling with substance abuse and mental health issues.
“I know it does not bring any measure of comfort and I do not deserve forgiveness, but please know I will feel sorry for what I did the rest of my life,” Castle told Kilroy’s family in court. “I hope this plea allows you to at least move on from that night so you can remember Rachel for the wonderful person that she was. I am so sorry.”
Kilroy’s mother, Johanna Kilroy, read an impact statement in court saying although Rachel struggled in her adult life, she always retained her generous spirit and compassion.
“She had a beautiful smile, a hearty laugh and would always embrace her friends and family with her bear hugs,” she read.
The judge said Kilroy had offered Castle a place to stay after Castle left a drug treatment center she had been sent to by court, without permission.
Kilroy’s mother said they will keep her daughter’s memory alive, for her young son, and make sure he knows how much she loved him.
It was previously reported that Castle and Kilroy were domestic partners. However, it was revealed in court that this was not the case and that the two were acquaintances.


That weird rumbling noise you hear is emanating from the belly of a large, hungry Ghost. And Julio Leal must feed the spook in question tomorrow night.
Two long months have elapsed since Orlando Pirates supporters last savoured some silverware. They are demanding yet another course in the rolling banquet of glory that began with last season’s treble under former coach Ruud Krol.
Standing between Bucs and a maiden Telkom Knockout title are Bidvest Wits — the very same rabble of uncouth laaities who crushed Pirates 3-1 three weeks ago in the league.
Another bollocking from the Clever Boys in Durban would all but kill off Leal’s hopes of emulating the Krol treble at his first attempt. But if the Brazilian is on edge, he’s not about to let us know. Unlike his brusque predecessor, Leal sees coaching as an unashamedly political art: he knows that his public approval ratings are not necessarily pegged to his team’s log position.
Hence he oozes schmooze in all his dealings with the media, and takes pride in his polished, flowery English, even though his lurching accent makes him sound like a recording of himself played backwards. “I never bend my knee or give up — I’m Brazilian,” he said recently, deploying his flair for the soundbyte.
Leal’s ratings have dipped of late, despite his charm offensive. The league results have been patchy, and he has squabbled on the touchline with tetchy assistant coach Tebogo Moloi. Many fans have been grumbling about the absence of the mythical Brazilian pizzazz that he was supposedly hired to infuse into Krol’s winning formula.
But Leal has a large trump card called Benni McCarthy. The resurgent striker was a dangerous opstoker for Bucs in their impressive 3-0 revolution against log leaders SuperSport United last weekend. McCarthy’s fitness and mobility is gradually improving, and his football intelligence is as incisive as it ever was.
Applying his inventive touches and world-class aerial strength, he brings structure and fluency to the Pirates formation, giving the attacks time to bear fruit by holding up the ball and feeding the channels.
On Saturday McCarthy could complete his journey into the hearts of the Bucs faithful by lifting the first South African trophy of his career. (He was absent through suspension from the MTN8 victory in September.)
You would think that for a player in possession of a Uefa Champions League winners’ medal (he conquered Europe with Porto in 2004), a Telkom Knockout medal is not a dizzying prospect. But McCarthy’s excitement about starring for the Sea Robbers is palpable: by recapturing the affection and respect of many South African fans he is redeeming the painful, comical anticlimax of his last couple of seasons in England. He is giving his career the dignified conclusion it deserves.
For many years McCarthy was vilified and ridiculed in equal measure in his homeland, for his perceived disloyalty to Bafana and/or his well-padded physique. Some of the brickbats were well earned, but he often got a raw deal from the media and the fans. Injuries played a big role in his weight problems, and Safa’s shoddy treatment of players provoked some of his refusals to serve the nation when called.
Fortunately McCarthy is a thick-skinned outie and had the chutzpah to come home and confront all the haters. As a result, many are realising or remembering what a remarkable footballer he is – and accepting that he was a patriotic (if impetuous) South African all along.
McCarthy may be chaperoned tomorrow night by another much-maligned, impetuous patriot, name of Mbulelo Mabizela. The stage will be perfectly set for the former Bucs and Bafana skipper to remind us all what he might have achieved were it not for his long-standing affection for bottled oblivion.
McCarthy versus “OJ” promises to be a tasty tussle between two wily operators, both of whose minds are considerably quicker than their legs.
But pace will be a decisive variable elsewhere on the pitch. Bucs wingers Tlou Segolela and Daine Klate will scourge the Students’ flanks like a pair of sjamboks, and will enjoy the prospect of cutting inside to target Mabizela or his possible central defensive partner, fellow madala Derick Spencer.
Despite the gulf in budgets Wits coach Roger de Sa has comparable forward talent at his disposal: the likes of Ryan Chapman, Sifiso Myeni, Asive Langwe and Bhongolwethu Jayiya could easily repeat the damage they inflicted on Bucs in Nelspruit.
Leal will pray that his keeper, Moeneeb Josephs, sustains his magnificent shot-stopping form for another weekend.
Unlike Leal the long-serving De Sa has no fear of the axe. His Nedbank Cup victory of 2009, along with progress to this final, has cemented his position, and instilled an insouciant confidence in this charismatic young squad.
Neutrals will applaud another cup triumph for the Clever Boys, a progressive small club who are doing their bit to broaden South Africa’s talent pool. But Leal shouldn’t try telling that to the Ghost if he fails.

"Hmm, it tastes like soap mixed with sulphur... do you think it's safe to drink?"
I think it is safe to say that my first attempt at making hard cider was not working out according to plan. I had been reading all about wild fermentation and, slowly, I began to develop romantic notions of harvesting wild yeast from apple skins and brewing up a batch of wild cider. It turns out that fermentation is incredibly easy. It’s nature’s default. Flavor, on the other hand, is another matter altogether. Fermenting something that tastes good takes care and patience and, unknowingly, I had picked the most difficult method of achieving a pleasing result.
All yeast is not the same. If it was, you could just tear open a package of Fleischmann's, pour it into some juice, and you would be off to the races. There are actually something like 1500 species of yeast that have been discovered. This is the problem you run into when you try to harvest wild yeast. Who knows what you will end up with. Because yeasts can have wildly different characteristics, so might your finished product.
It is my understanding that the real masters of cider making are those that have learned how to cultivate the tastier wild yeasts. When it comes to homebrewing, I am very much an enthusiastic amateur. So, for batch number two, I set my sights on a more achievable goal. Forgoing wild yeast for champagne yeast, I made a carbonated cider with the kick of a higher alcohol content. It turns out that with the right tools and some attention to detail, a good batch of cider is not that hard to make. Let’s get started.
Equipment & Ingredients
Ensuring that your juice is preservative free is probably the single most important thing to remember when you are gearing up to make hard cider. If your juice has preservatives the yeast will not be able to survive in it long enough to ferment the sugar.
1. 2 one gallon carboys and enough bail top bottles for one gallon of cider.
3. Hydrometer (Save the plastic tube it is packaged in)
5. Large enough pot to fit one gallon of juice.
6. Auto Siphon and 5 feet of siphon hose
7. Large deep pan to hold cleaning solution
10. Star San
11. Champagne yeast
12. 1 gallon of apple juice & 1/2-1 pound of brown sugar
*We used a candy thermometer that we had laying around. If you are buying a thermometer go ahead and get a proper one from a homebrew supplier.
**Since these photographs were taken we purchased a digital scale and can't recommend it enough.
It’s important to note that there is a huge variety of ways to make hard cider. The one thing that all methods have in common is that the juice you start with must be preservative free. Preservatives will kill the yeast before they have an opportunity to eat the sugar, leaving you with a gallon of apple juice that is too sweet to drink. These instructions will yield you roughly a gallon of cider. I chose to buy my juice at the store because it came in a gallon sized glass carboy, so I was able to get my juice and fermenting vessel in one shot.
The first thing you need to do is get everything sterilized. It would be a shame to spend all of this time caring for your cider only to have it all spoiled by an unwanted strain of yeast or bacteria. First, clean all of your tools in soapy water. Next, mix up a batch of water and Star San. After you have rinsed off all the soapy water, sterilize all of your freshly scrubbed tools in the Star San solution.
Wake Up Your Yeast
Now you need to jump start your sleepy yeast. You could simply pour your yeast directly into the juice, but there is a small chance that your yeast is dead, and you could wind up wasting a lot of time waiting for it to come to life. It is much better to make a starter. The simplest thing to do is pour all but four or five ounces of your juice into the sterilized pot. Cover the pot and set it aside. Now pour 1 gram of yeast into the juice you left in the carboy. If you purchased unpasteurized juice, you will need to pasteurize it before adding the yeast. Swirl it around to mix, cap it, and that’s your starter. The yeast will wake up and begin to eat the sugar in the juice. It should be bubbling nicely within 5-6 hours.
Break Out The Hydrometer
I have always liked tools. Tools expand the potential of the user. The Hydrometer is one of the cooler tools used in brewing. It looks a bit intimidating, but don’t let that give you pause. It’s really quite simple. It is used to determine the specific gravity of a liquid, which for our purposes, means measuring how much sugar is in our juice. To do this, pour juice into the sterilized, clear, plastic tube that the hydrometer came packaged in. Fill it about 3/4 of the way full, and gently submerge the hydrometer into the tube. The hydrometer has a number of scales, but this time we are only interested in the percentage scale. It will probably settle around the 6% mark. That means your juice, once fully fermented, has the potential to make a cider with 6% alcohol content. This number may fluctuate slightly. The important thing is to know what you are starting with. We are trying to make a cider with 10% alcohol content, so we will need to add additional sugar. In brewing, there are many rabbit holes to go down, and this is one of them. You can use granulated cane sugar, honey, maple syrup, and on and on. I settled on brown sugar, because I had a feeling I would like the addition of molasses. Next time, I’ll probably try something different. Experimentation is one of the most enjoyable parts of all craft.
So how do you determine how much sugar you need? Well, that's where things can begin to get a little complicated. Different sweeteners all have different specific gravities when dissolved into the same amount of liquid. Armed with that knowledge and your hydrometer reading, it is possible to calculate how much sugar you need to add in order to reach your goal. I'm not going to go deep into that here because, to be perfectly honest, you don’t need to understand it to make this batch of cider. If popping the top on that first batch of tasty cider gives you as much pleasure as it did me, I’m sure you’ll find you suddenly have the desire to learn all the ins and outs of brewing. Let’s keep it simple for this batch. To reach that 10% mark, we are going to need somewhere between 1/2 - 1 pound of brown sugar.
Sterilize Your Sugar
Who knows what kind of bacteria and yeast are living in that package of brown sugar you brought home from the store. In order to safely use it for fermentation, you will need to sterilize it. Begin heating the juice that you poured into the pot over low heat. Place your thermometer in the juice and keep a close eye on it. You don’t want it to go above 160 degrees, or it can begin to get cloudy. When your juice is beginning to get warm, weigh out a quarter pound of brown sugar and dissolve it into the juice. Take a hydrometer reading and see where you’re at. Keep adding more sugar and testing the juice until your hydrometer reads 10%. Add the sugar in reasonable amounts so you don’t overshoot 10%. Simple!
Continue heating the juice on low to medium heat until it reaches 160 degrees. To pasteurize, make sure to keep your juice and sugar mixture at 160 degrees for ten minutes, then turn off the heat. Now that any undesirable yeast or bacteria has been eliminated from your juice, you just have to wait until the mixture cools to 70 degrees before adding it to your yeast starter. You can partially submerge the pot in ice water to speed up this process.
Let Nature Do Its Work
Use a sterilized funnel to transfer the juice into the carboy with the yeast starter. Fill your airlock with the Star San solution, and place it on the carboy. Now you just have to wait. The cider should bubble away steadily for two weeks. Keep it out of direct sunlight, in a place that maintains a steady, comfortable, room temperature. Sometimes the yeast can go a bit crazy during the first day or two and bubble up out of the airlock. This is called blow-off. While it is more common when brewing beer, I went ahead and stored my carboy in a box lined with a plastic bag anyway. Slowly, after about two weeks, the bubbling will subside. After your cider is fermented, it will be very cloudy. That is the yeast suspended in it. You need to let it rest for another week or two, to allow the yeast to slowly settle out of the cider.
Don’t be hasty. Our cider is not done yet. We want to give it more time for the flavors to round out. If we leave it in the original carboy for this stage, it can begin to take on some of the less pleasant flavors from all of the detritus that has settled to the bottom during the primary fermentation. Now it’s time to use another cool brewing tool, the Auto Siphon. This is basically a long, flexible tube attached to a manual pump, which we will use to transfer the cider to a fresh carboy. There is a small siphon meant for one gallon carboys, but I went ahead and got the big one because I had a feeling I would be doing some bigger batches in the future. If you have to move your carboy in order to complete this step, you need to be very gentle with it. You waited two weeks for the yeast to settle, and you do not want to disturb it now. Lower the siphon into the cider, and keep it about an inch above the bottom to avoid sucking the sediment into the clean carboy. I stuck a wine cork, cut in a wedge shape, into the mouth of the carboy next to the Auto Siphon to ensure it didn’t drop down to the bottom. Put the tube into the clean carboy, and begin pumping the siphon. As soon as the cider begins to spill into the freshly sterilized carboy, you can stop pumping. Through some amazing law of physics, that I don’t fully understand, the cider will continue to fill the new carboy as long as the bottom of the pump stays submerged. As the old carboy begins to empty, you can gently tip it to get at more of the sediment-free cider. Leave the dregs in the bottom of the original carboy. After you have gotten as much of the sediment-free cider as you can, cap it with the airlock, and allow it to sit for another month. This will do a few things. It gives the yeast more time to eat any remaining sugar, as well as continue to settle out of the cider. The cider will most likely have kind of a hot, alcohol flavor at the end of primary fermentation. At the end of the second month, the cider will be much smoother. If you’re not in a rush, secondary fermentation can go on for a long time. I let mine go for close to three months before I couldn’t stand waiting any longer.
You could bottle it at this point and have a nice still, dry cider. I may give that a try in the future, but for some reason, I have always thought of cider as a carbonated drink. We are going to bottle condition our cider, which simply means carbonating it in the bottle. Mix together 30 grams (2 tablespoons) of granulated sugar and 50 grams (¼ cup) of water and bring to a boil in a saucepan. Let it cool to room temperature before adding it to your cider. Depending upon how long you left your cider in secondary fermentation, you may or may not have any residual living yeast in your cider. I was worried that all of my yeast had gone the way of the dinosaurs, so I added a small pinch of leftover dry yeast to my cider, to ensure I would get the carbonation I was after. It was probably an unnecessary precaution, and I may not do it with my next batch. If you decide to add additional yeast, make sure you give it around 8 hours to fully incorporate into the cider. Now siphon out the cider into your sterilized bottles, seal them up, and store them in your fermentation nook for another two weeks.
Time For A Refreshment
Mark you calendar and count down the days. Chill in the refrigerator and enjoy! My cider had a very light effervescent quality, more akin to a nice champagne than the harsh sharpness of a carbonated soda. In many ways, the flavor reminded me of a very smooth chardonnay, but with a very light appley finish. It’s a great summer drink and would be tasty with all the foods commonly paired with white wines or lighter beers. I am already looking forward to my next batch. I have a line on some local, fresh pressed apple juice that should make a great cider. Next time, I think I will try out an ale yeast and sweeten it with honey.
If you have any questions, you can always reach us on Twitter or Facebook. We would love to see photos of your cider making endeavor. Share them with us on Instagram. You can find us at @filterandfunnel. Happy brewing!

Domenech backs Vieira switch
Friday 08 January 2010
Patrick Vieira has a strong chance of fighting his way into the France squad for this year's World Cup if his move from Inter Milan to Manchester City proves a success, national coach Raymond Domenech said today.
Vieira, who played his last competitive international in Sept. 2007 and started just seven games for Inter this season, said on Thursday he was joining City to get more playing time in a bid to regain a spot in the France team.
"His departure from Milan is good news. We had been talking about it for months. Patrick needed to play, never mind where, and what's more, he ends up at a very good club," Domenech told sports daily L'Equipe.
"It's good for him, it's good for Les Bleus," he added.
"If he plays and if he plays at his true level, there is no reason why he shouldn't come to South Africa.
"He is a talented player with a lot of experience and charisma. If he plays, he will be more than a candidate."

This remarkable project, realised and brought to life by Matt Williams Architects, transcends traditional architectural boundaries, merging art, architecture, and the natural world into a cohesive and enchanting entity. Set in the tranquil environment of Tasmania's east coast, Studio Tasmania provides an unmatched stay experience of seclusion and deep immersion in the natural world.
Studio Tasmania is more than just a structure; it is a well-considered response to the landscape. The design philosophy centres on minimal environmental impact, in tune with the site's existing topography and ecology. The design process addressed the challenges of an unspoilt site, marked by steep, vegetated dunes and flood-prone areas. The architects' sensitive approach focused on minimising disruption while preserving the natural dominance of the landscape. The studio is accessed via a path that follows the natural contours of the land, wrapping around a dune for privacy. Elevated above the dunes, the structure appears to hover, allowing the local fauna, to traverse undisturbed beneath it.
"From landing in Tassie, driving the coast road, arriving on site and walking the winding path to the Studio, the journey is intended as one of shedding, the noise and demands, to find a place of peace and calm," Matt Williams Architects note.
Despite its compact size, the studio's design skilfully amplifies the sense of space. A selectively rich, textured palette allows the building to integrate effortlessly into the background, enhancing the ambiance of the setting.
With the studio's strategic positioning it offers guests stunning vistas of the Freycinet Peninsula and Great Oyster Bay. Inspired by the concept of a viewfinder, the architectural form is angled to frame these breathtaking views, creating a dynamic interaction between the indoors and the ever-changing Tasmanian landscape. This design choice is not just about aesthetics; it's a conscious effort to deepen the guests' connection with the surroundings.
Constructed with a keen eye for sustainability, Studio Tasmania features the Surefoot footing system, exposed OSB lining, and a careful selection of materials, underscoring a strong commitment to environmental responsibility. These choices not only minimise the ecological footprint but also enhance the studio's thermal efficiency, making it suitable for year-round accommodation.
From its inception, the project involved a close partnership with the clients, ensuring that their vision of a tranquil retreat was fully realised. First conceived as a private retreat, it has now only just opened to the public for short term stays to experience a truly unique Tasmanian cabin stay.
Just steps from your doorstep lies the unspoiled Nine Mile Beach, perfect for your invigorating morning swims. If you crave adventure, the famous Wineglass Bay Trail is nearby, offering an immersive experience in the breathtaking beauty of Tasmania. Foodies can indulge at the nearby Melshell Oyster Shack or the exceptional Waterloo Restaurant, both just a short drive away.
Alternatively, you have the option to order a local tailored hamper from Freycinet Luxury Hosts concierge service which includes options of local cheeses, wines and other goodies, allowing you to hunker down and truly savour the Studio Tasmania experience. As the evening descends, the timber deck becomes the place to be, accompanied by your local cheeseboard, fresh oysters, and a glass of wine, immerse yourself completely in the enchanting Tasmanian sunset and night sky. Whether you prefer adventure or a more relaxed stay, this cabin can cater to your every need.
We are so excited to see it now available for short stays as it offers a unique opportunity for guests to experience this architectural design and its enchanting surroundings first hand. It stands as a model of how architecture can coexist with and enhance the natural environment. It's a place that doesn't just provide shelter but also a profound sense of connection—to nature, to tranquillity, and to the very essence of Tasmania's rugged beauty.
To secure your serene retreat at Studio Tasmania, head to Freycinet Luxury Hosts website to book. Discover a glimpse of this unique Tasmanian hideaway by following Studio Tasmania on Instagram, where you'll find a collection of enticing updates for your next escape.

Kim Jong Un Rings In The New Year With A Stark Warning
North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un kicked off the new year with a nuclear warning to the U.S.
The young despot announced that all of the U.S. mainland is in range, asserting that he has a button to order a nuclear strike against the U.S. installed on his office desk, according to Yonhap News Agency.
“The entire United States is within range of our nuclear weapons, and a nuclear button is always on my desk. This is reality, not a threat,” Kim explained, asserting that the U.S. would not dare start a war with the North now that the rogue state has finally achieved its nuclear ambitions.
“We have secured powerful deterrence against the nuclear threat from the U.S.,” he added.
North Korea found new ways to threaten its neighbors in 2017, as well as those enemies located farther from its shores. The rogue state successfully tested five never-before-seen ballistic missiles, including two new intercontinental ballistic missiles believed to be capable of striking the continental U.S.
The North also tested a staged thermonuclear weapon — a hydrogen bomb designed to level entire cities.
In the year ahead, Kim stressed, the North will focus on operational deployment of the country’s new ballistic missiles and nuclear bombs. The North Korean leader called for the mass production of nuclear weapons and missiles. He also instructed his forces to rapidly put these weapons into service.
Kim, however, made it clear that North Korea will only use its nuclear weapons if threatened.
Moving away from talk of war, the young dictator expressed an interest in improved inter-Korean relations, announcing that not only will North Korea participate in the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang, but Pyongyang is apparently interested in talks with Seoul.
The start of the new year was initially marked with fireworks and other festive celebrations in the North Korean capital.

It it is now investigating other ‘secret’ pre-packs where pension liabilities have been dumped in order to carve out profitable assets.
“We are investigating a series of transactions,” said Bill Galvin chief executive of the pensions watchdog. “There is Brintons and Silentnight, but also other cases that are not public.”
Mr Galvin would not disclose the details of specific probes but said the pre-pack phenomena was on the up.
Most industry figures say this is because pension liabilities have become too big and too volatile for companies to cope. This leaves them vulnerable to insolvency, even when the underlying business is healthy. According to KPMG corporate Britain currently faces a £295bn pension deficit.
“Any business that is old and has lots of employees – I can guarantee is struggling right now,” said one private equity boss. “Down the line these companies will either have to be separated from the pension liabilities or go bust all together.”
A company managing director said: “These days I feel like I work for the trustees. In many cases it is the demands made by pension trustees that pushes companies to the edge.”
Mr Galvin said: “We are sympathetic, if companies come to us as say, look we don’t have the cash at the moment - but why don’t we use these assets instead, or that they would like to back end load some of their pension scheme payments then we would like to listen.” However, the regulator failed to find agreement when this happened with Readers Digest and the company went into administration.
A recent legal case involving Nortel and Lehman Brothers has given the regulator radical new powers that allow it to force administrators to honour pension scheme commitments even before banks and other senior lenders. This could now be used by the regulator in the Brintons and Silentnight investigations.
In the Brintons case, private equity giant Carlyle bought £18m of the company’s debt, allowing it to demand an administration process. Then it bought Brintons for £40m without the pension scheme.
HIG Europe sparked controversy because it bought back Silentnight through a pre-pack after its debt division – Bayside – acquired the debt. Again, this allowed a call for a restructuring, and ultimately the pension fund was forced out.
The new regulatory powers have meant many private equity firms increasingly looking at copycat structures are taking legal advice on what the regulator response would be.
However, some warn that the new laws also have negative unforeseen consequences.
“Banks are suddenly worried there is a creditor above them that would wipe them out – it is a new level of risk and means we have seen banks cut off funding or refuse to lend money for deals,” said a senior restructuring advisor.
Mr Galvin said: “For banks to say that it is colouring their approach to lending is pretty tough. Maybe we need to go out and give workshops to banks and lenders to talk them through what would need to take place before we considered something a moral hazard.”

Question: Why tour opera?
Counter-question: Why limit opera to one regionally-specific audience?
Links between opera houses, elitism, and exclusivity are well known and frequently discussed. Even the locations of opera houses through history have attested to their superiority – in eighteenth-century Paris, the Opéra (well, the Académie Royale de Musique) was located within the Palais Royal, while the Burgtheater (home of the Court Opera) in eighteenth-century Vienna was right next to the imperial palace.
So by occasionally removing opera from the opera house, we’ve combated barriers to accessibility, right? Sure. But what these examples have in common is that they’re all based in London. Opera in the UK, and an excessively large proportion of the arts, is London-centric. Not only this, but funding to the arts is very London-centric. For instance, though the Department of Culture Media and Sport (DCMS) funds sixteen national cultural organisations, it’s estimated that in 2012/13, 90% of the £450 million available was of direct benefit to London. Arts and Business figures also show that 82% of private sector funding of the arts was awarded to London-based organisations.
Now, in discussions of opera’s accessibility 3 main barriers are often brought up: awareness, price, and GEOGRAPHY. Access to the arts – be it opera, music, theatre, art galleries – should not be a luxury, nor should it be linked to the city you call home. Yet only 3.9% of the UK population have seen a live opera. And the geographical imbalance of funding and access to opera therein justifies critical scrutiny and a plan of action. ‘Opera For All’ remains the resounding slogan.
One way to combat geographical isolation is to convert opera to a medium that is easily transportable – like film. In 2012, 10 Royal Opera House productions were screened in over 700 cinemas across 30 countries. BP Summer Big Screens are sprinkled all over the UK, and are known to screen live opera to over 18,000 attendees. Operas broadcast on the big screens are really very popular.
(Just FYI, this is also true for ballet – the Royal Opera House’s live screening of La Fille mal gardée was the 5th highest grossing film in the UK on its evening)
However, without sounding like too much of a nerd, there is something special about experiencing live opera. I think my shiver-to-notes ratio is far greater when I’m witnessing live opera than when I’m watching on a screen. I think yours is too. And so, this is why we tour. And the arts world is doing it together. More than a third of theatre companies have seen an upsurge in their touring work over the past two years. And it’s not just happening in the West.
Here at OperaUpClose, we’ve tripled our touring schedule over the past year. We frequent new-to-opera locations and target venues that don’t regularly programme opera. At our performance of The Marriage of Figaro at G Live in Guildford, 31% of the audience were attending their first opera. Our areas for touring in 2016 ranged from Oldham (lowest 20% of arts engagement of Local Authorities in England); Coventry and Thanet (lower 21-33%); Taunton Deane and Bracknell (mid-table of Las ranked by arts engagement); to Oxford and Wandsworth (top of table). We’re developing relationships with audiences far and wide and have a strong record of introducing new audiences to opera who come back for more.
Touring opera (even our up-close, no-frills productions) is a lot more expensive than touring theatre. However, more generally speaking, touring is a good thing for opera’s financial sustainability as you can really maximise the return on your investment – the expensive part, creating the production, is done and dusted. But first you’ll need to have established an audience capable of drawing in the kind of paying public necessary to run the tour. These relationships that takes time to nurture.
Help us nurture these relationships and continue to spread our opera productions far and wide?
