By Lance Avery Morgan Photography courtesy of Hive & Colony
Sure, you can go to Savile Row in London. Or, you can have the same experience here in Texas. Dallas, to be exact. Getting a custom suit made by Hive & Colony Clothiers is an experience that goes beyond the ordinary and delves deeply into the realms of craftsmanship, luxury, and personalized style. Here’s what it’s like to embark on this sartorial journey – and you will want to do it again and again like Rob Giardinelli and I soon thought as we both embarked on this creative process of having new tuxedos made.
First, the consultation.
The journey begins with a scheduled appointment at the Hive & Colony showroom, an elegant space that exudes timeless sophistication in Dallas’ NorthPark Center. The occasion for the new tuxedos was for the annual DIFFA Dallas gala where every iteration of black tie is seen in full regalia. If anyone has declared the Peacock Revolution over, then this event defies it. So, to match, and even, surpass the colorful expectations of attending DIFFA, Hive & Colony is the only place to go. As you step through the door, you are greeted by a knowledgeable and impeccably dressed customer service expert, who will be your guide throughout the process.
You’ll want to have a personal style assessment done to begin exploring all your choices. The customer service experts at Hive & Colony take the time to understand your personal style, preferences, and lifestyle. They ask questions about your prior and current fashion choices, the occasions you plan to wear the suit for, and the image you want to project while wearing it. After all, his consultation is crucial in ensuring that the final suit reflects your unique personality and requirements. As the Hive & Colony expert Pablo Mendez shared with us, “Whatever you want, however you want it…we can make it happen because we want you to feel as special as the occasion that the suit is for.”
Then, the real fun begins.
The fabric selection is like a trip to a fabrication candy store. Hive & Colony boasts an extensive selection of the finest fabrics from around the world. Here, you are presented with a curated collection of luxurious materials, including sumptuous wool, silk, and cashmere blends. Each fabric is a work of art in itself, and you’re encouraged to touch and feel the different textures and weights. The tailor provides expert advice to help you choose a fabric that complements your style and the purpose of the suit. Since the occasion we were shopping for was creative black tie, there were no boundaries to fabric selection, so I went with a sleek charcoal gray and Rob chose midnight blue. My guidepost in life is usually: What Would Cary Grant Wear?…and then I choose accordingly, as does Rob.
For custom measurement and fit, precision is paramount at Hive & Colony. The customer service expert takes a comprehensive set of measurements with a cool and futuristic 3D scanning method that Hive & Colony has developed, capturing every nuance of your body shape. They pay attention to details such as posture, shoulder slope, and arm length to ensure that the suit will fit you perfectly. These measurements are the foundation upon which your unique suit will be built. Plus, they are taken electronically with a computer program that Hive & Colony created, so it feels futuristic in a good way, to complement the good old-fashioned client servicing.
As you might expect, there are plenty of customization options at Hive & Colony.
To us, the really exciting part was customizing the suit. You have the opportunity to make a myriad of choices, including lapel style, button configuration, pocket styles, and vents. Whether you prefer a classic two-button suit with notch lapels or a more contemporary three-piece with peak lapels, the customer service representative guides you through the options, helping you create a suit that’s uniquely yours. With our classic tuxedos, they feel almost one-of-a-kind.
Beyond the exterior, the design details can be personalized in many ways…like the interior of your suit with options such as contrasting lining fabrics, monogramming, and even hidden pockets. These details add a touch of exclusivity and personality to your garment. Our favorite? A wildly cool print custom lining and matching pocket square. Talk about individualism.
Over the course of several fittings (about two to three, depending on how exacting you are), the skilled artisans at Hive & Colony meticulously craft your suit. The initial fitting allows you to see the suit in its early stages, ensuring that the fit and style align with your vision. Any necessary adjustments are made with expert precision, ensuring that the suit drapes perfectly on your body. And by perfect, we mean perfection.
The moment of truth arrives when you return for the final fitting for the final reveal.
The suit is unveiled in all its glory by Hive & Colony, impeccably pressed and ready to be worn. As you step into it, you feel the transformative power of bespoke tailoring – a suit that is not just clothing but is also a reflection of your personality and aspirations.
The tailoring tips you learn during the process are also invaluable. Before leaving, the tailor imparts valuable advice on how to care for your custom suit to maintain its pristine condition. They will also suggest coordinating accessories and shirts that they sell to complete the ensemble so that you feel like a billion dollars from head to toe.
We have found that owning a Hive & Colony custom suit or tuxedo is a privilege that extends beyond the initial experience. “We want to make sure our clothes we create for you are as special as the occasion for which you want it,” shares Pablo Mendez of Hive & Colony in Dallas. “It becomes a cherished part of your wardrobe, elevating your style and confidence on every occasion you wear it,” he continues.
So, getting a custom suit made by Hive & Colony Clothiers is not merely a transaction; it’s an immersive journey into the world of timeless elegance and self-expression. It’s a testament to their artistry, craftsmanship, and attention to detail that defines this renowned clothier, resulting in a suit that embodies your own unique identity and style. Run, don’t walk to Hive & Colony to create your favorite new suit now.

Tech startups have expressed confidence that the Philippines will be able to improve its rankings in Tholons Services Globalization Index, or the Global Outsourcing Index. The latest index showed Philippine cities dropping a few notches in the rankings, with Cebu falling out of the top 10. Mon Ibrahim, undersecretary of the Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT), expects the standing to improve next year because of the many programs in place to spur growth in startups. For the first time, Tholons introduced digital innovation, startup ecosystem, and digital transformation as primary measures in determining the top cities for outsourcing.

Born of similar ancestry and sharing a homogeneous historical legacy in addition to cultural similarities, this article elucidates the ways in which India and Pakistan are more similar than they are different, a narrative that is often glossed over amidst the political turmoil that constantly envelopes the relationship between the two states.
By Saira Banu,
An individual’s cultural identity is the amalgamation of the nurture and nature absorbed by him/her in the course of upbringing. States view and understand themselves on the basis of inter-subjectively formulated perceptions and identities. Despite being one nation prior to the partition and having a shared national and cultural identity, Pakistan and India continue to share a less than cordial relationship primarily due to the turbulent nature of the partition. While there are numerous dimensions to the India–Pakistan conflict and the resulting subcontinental security dynamics, this article will attempt to discuss the cultural homogeneity of the states.

Real Madrid has signed Emmanuel Adebayor from Manchester City on loan until the end of the season with an option to buy the Togolese striker.
Madrid will pay US$5,5 million for the forward, who had been little used at the Premier League club after falling down the pecking order.
Madrid coach Jose Mourinho is desperate to bolster his attack, with Gonzalo Higuain injured and Karim Benzema on unconvincing form.
Emmanuel Adebayor had his required medical on Thursday at Sanitas-La Moraleja Hospital. According to Dr. Carlos Diez, who oversaw the process, the player has a “tremendous physique. He is in very good health and is able to begin training immediately.”
“I want to score many goals and to achieve great things” says Adebayor.

After months of being stalked, threatened and brutalised, Penal mother Reshma Kanchan met a horrific death via the cutlass of a former lover yesterday.
With support for her two children hard the come by, the 25-year-old cleaner left her Laltoo Trace Extension home for her Unemployment Relief Programme job at a school in Debe just before 9 am. But as she walked along the road, the man sprung on her, chopping her hand, face and neck. So severe was the attack that he almost severed her neck. Kanchan died in a neighbour’s driveway while the man drove off in a black Nissan Wingroad.
Villager Heeraman Jaglal said the man later crashed into a bin outside the Simon Say Chinese restaurant and the tyre blew out. Police said it appeared the suspect, an electrician from Siparia, slit his neck as he drove off.
Jaglal said he took the man to the side of the road as he bled profusely from his neck. Jaglal said a relative came and wrapped the man’s neck with a T-shirt until an ambulance took him to the San Fernando General Hospital. He underwent treatment and remained under police guard last night.
As Kanchan’s body lay on the hot asphalt, her daughters Shivani, five and Carissa, two, walked around the yard, unaware of the pain their relatives were experiencing in their home.
“Bring back my daughter please,” Davica Kanchan shouted as she sat in front her temple in the front yard.
Davica recalled that the family made several reports of domestic abuse to Penal police but the officers would only warn the man.
“The man kept calling her since five o’clock this morning. She told the man, ‘I am busy, I have to go to work. Do not call me. Do not harass me.’ She told the man that the child did not have pampers, and that is the last words I heard her say as she walked out the road,” Davica told Guardian Media.
“From what I heard, he was waiting down the road for her. All I know is that my sister-in-law called this morning and asked if everything OK.”
With the children asleep, Davica thought all was well until police visited their home and delivered the news that someone had cut her daughter’s throat and she died on the spot.
Kanchan and the man shared a seven-year relationship filled with abuse and torment. Five months ago, Kanchan decided she had had enough and she and her girls moved on with their lives. However, the man went to their home several times and allegedly abused her. Davica claimed recently, he took a cutlass from the back of his pick-up truck, placed it on the front seat and told Kanchan he would slit her throat.
“Sunday morning, he came again and threatened her and me. We called the police but they never came. He told her that he would not allow her to live her life, he would destroy her. He wanted to make up, but she said ‘No,’ she could not live that kind of life anymore; the cursing and abuse.”
Davica said the man lived in her house for five months and during that time, she allegedly witnessed the abuse. When she and her younger daughter Beena got involved, he abused them as well.
Beena said on Kanchan’s birthday in 2019, Kanchan had one of the girls in her arms when the man began hitting her.
“When we went to take the child, he hit my mother and I and we put him in court. We did not further the case because she (Kanchan) said she wanted to make a living with him and she wanted to try again, so we left the case right there,” Beena said.
The brutal killing took place metres away from where Premnath Ramkhalawan stabbed his wife Aarika Bhim in the back of her car, approximately 100 metres from their Laltoo Trace home, in 2015. Bhim was holding her then three-year-old daughter at the time.
The child’s grandfather Purnanand Bhim found her, still clutching her mother’s bloodied body. Relatives found Ramkhalawan’s body hanging at the back of their home.
The International Women’s Resource Network (IWRN) yesterday appealed to men to help other men to unlearn toxic behaviour. The IWRN said this would ultimately help men to manage their emotions, especially as it relates to rejection.
“This call comes on the heels of the tragic loss of yet another woman, young Reshma Kanchan, a mother of two, who was beheaded earlier today, allegedly by a close male relative who also attempted to take his own life,” the IRWN said in a release hours after Kanchan was chopped to death by an abusive ex-lover.
The IWRN said it was now a common trend for men to harm themselves after murdering their spouses, adding such a trend points to a larger societal problem involving learnt behaviour that breathes toxicity and narcissism over prolonged periods.
“The narrative of domestic violence must change from being reactive to proactive, as issues which ignite domestic violence would always be present in families. However, as a country, we have a moral responsibility as State and civil society, to collectively develop effective and sustainable strategies,” it said.
“Whilst the IWRN facilitates customised types of activities for men, it is insufficient and would demonstrate minimal progress unless and until male professionals in this country commit to engaging with men to help in unlearning toxic behaviour. This process must begin by not objectifying women which is one of the major stumbling blocks that have been impeding the mindset of men for years.”
The IWRN asked that all domestic violence victims (both male and female) report all incidents to its hotline at 795-9531, the Gender-Based Violence Unit at 999 or the Domestic Violence Hotline at 800-SAVE.

The pressure group Compass is taking action to place the public interest back at the heart of Britain. Joe Cox of the group's campaigns team reports on their latest event: a citizen's assembly organised with the economics think-tank nef.
When complex events occur the framing of the issue often determines which lessons we learn. When the News of the World phone hacking scandal erupted we at Compass wanted to help ensure that the UK learnt the right lessons in the right way. We, amongst others, argued that the scandal was not an isolated event. It was the third crisis in quick succession. First, the bankers and their bonuses; then some politicians and their expenses; and then the press, profiting from peoples’ pain, grief and private lives. We launched a petition calling for the Government to hold a new Public Jury that would explore possible reforms to banking, politics, media and the police, to enable us to put the public interest back into the heart of the system. (The idea is discussed here on OurKingdom.)
The backdrop to the campaign was a concern that despite the cataclysmic implosion of global capitalism and the morbid symptoms that flow from this crisis there does not seem to be any genuine, radical and sustained citizen-led discussions about the necessary and feasible alternatives to what can be crudely called ‘neoliberalism’. Don’t get me wrong, there are brave and inspiring signs of life. First, we had UK Uncut; secondly, the student uprisings; thirdly, and perhaps most radically, has been the Occupy movement. Primarily a response to an out of control class of financiers and their political representatives, Occupy aims to be a prefigurative ‘good society’. Based on consensus and democratic allocation of labour, Occupy is creating spaces where alternatives can be re-imagined. Yet despite all these innovative movements, the dominant mood in the UK seems still to be one of cynicism and helplessness.
That is why Compass has continued to try to have this conversation and earlier this week organised a citizens’ assembly with nef at the South Bank Centre (London) called In The Public Interest. Set in the Clore Ballroom, a fantastic open space where hundreds assembled, we debated some of the ideas that could restore the notion of the public interest to the UK.
There were scores of inputs from the floor as well as short interventions from the panel of speakers: Alan Rusbridger, Editor of the Guardian, Jude Kelly of the Southbank Centre, Danni Paffard of moveyourmoney.org.uk and sociologist Richard Sennett. Despite the very fluid nature of the discussion there were a few themes that emerged.
Firstly, space. Unsurprisingly with the rise of the Occupy movement the notion that appropriation of physical space was important to restore civic life was reaffirmed time and again. Debating arenas that were free from media or political party filters as well as commercial pressures were deemed as important. Jude Kelly called on public spaces to become open arenas for conversation.
Richard Sennett argued that it was important not merely to use designated existing civic spaces but to appropriate new private spaces and turn them into open spaces. He noted that that was why Zuccotti Park was chosen as a target for the original New York occupation.
One of the most impassioned interventions came from a man who announced that ‘my pet hate is big city atriums’ to the laughter of many. I think it took a few seconds for most of us to realise he might have had a point.
Secondly, public services. There were passionate defences of the public services with one woman imploring us all to do what we can to stop the Health and Social Care Bill. The creeping privatisation and marketisation of public services was a particular concern as this was seen as the appropriation of public resources by groups of individuals for private gain (the example cited most was education).
Whilst there was overwhelming support for public services there was an acknowledgement that existing public spaces could be used more imaginatively to foster civic debate. One obvious suggestion being that public libraries should be used for more evening social and educational activities.
Thirdly, the media. Alan Rusbridger made the observation that certain sections of the media have used the public interest defence for their intrusive reporting yet they have been defining the public interest on our behalf. Absurdly, he added, the public hasn't yet been allowed to contribute to the Leveson enquiry as it attempts to define what is in the public interest.
Rusbridger also raised the dilemma of the financial pressures that are currently faced by media outlets. One can only see this pressure growing as the number of those that seek out ‘unfiltered news’ through social media grows. It is for that reason that one of the timeliest interventions from the floor was a plea for a more deliberative citizen led decisions on how the BBC spends its money.
As with all articles based on event write-ups I’m sure people will have different interpretations of what was most important or prescient about the debate and I would urge as many comments as possible from those that were present (and of course from those that were not present). There were numerous useful suggestions such as from Danni Paffard’s new campaign encouraging people to move their bank accounts to ‘better banks’, for a bolder defence of trade unions, a role for randomocracy but the overwhelming feeling I got from this discussion was that this was about defending the public and celebrating the intrinsic good that came from civic debate.
If there was one thing that almost everyone agreed on it was that this conversation needs to be repeated up and down the country and even perhaps in spaces where we don’t have permission to.

Following on from Veroboard and the Sequencer bus described in Sequencer notes, the sequencer bus consists of two separate stripboard designs:
- The first step
- The second and subsequent steps all use the same board layout
With respect to the 9T24H board used for the Second (and subsequent) Step Sequencer Bus v0.7… as there are 9 of these boards for the 2-10 potentiometer stages for each sequencer (10 step) stage, is it not more economical to combine on one larger board, of n x 9 Tracks?
Likewise, the v0.7 of the First Step Sequence Bus, requires 12T30H, will that not fit multiple times on a larger size board?

Darul Ifta at Darul Uloom Deoband (Islamic Seminary, India) has issued a Fatwa (religious opinion) that it is permissible for Muslims to use interest accrued on bank savings to help the poor. The fatwa was issued in response to a query from Karnataka which stated that “there is enough money from the interest in the bank account of our area’s mosque. And at present, many poor are suffering because of lockdown and they have no ration in their homes. In such a situation, can the needy persons be helped with this money?”. The reply of Darul Uloom Deoband was that:
“According to Islamic laws, the interest given by banks is haram (prohibited), it can not be used. But the interest money can be given to the poor and disabled without any intention of sawab (reward). So if bank account of the mosque has such interest money and its management wants to give to poor and needy people or wants to buy ration for them during the lockdown, there is nothing wrong in it”.
This is a welcome decision and clarification coming from Darul Uloom. These are difficult times and people are going through hardship. Muslims should use this opportunity to help the poor and the needy. This help must be given without any discrimination or prejudice. It should be given to people of every faith and colour and gender, Poor is a poor and needs to be supported.
Personally, I have being doing this for almost two decades now. I always use the interest money to help the poor. However, I believe that this should not be confined to only during lockdown period. Personally I have given interest money mostly to schools. That there is very high level of illiteracy among Indian Muslims is well documented. What better way of using this money lying in banks than helping somebody get educated. As they say instead of giving somebody fish, teach the person how to fish. When a person gets educated instead on depending on charity for life that person will become charity giver in future. If all the interest money lying in banks is used it can help educate a lot of children who cannot get decent education because their parents are too poor to afford school fees. This will not only strengthen the community but also the Nation.
There was always a large percentage of Muslims who were apprehensive of using interest money and used to leave it lying in banks. The concerns and apprehensions of such people have been addressed in this fatwa. Let us all use this opportunity to help our fellow citizens to get better education and have a decent shot at life. Let us help the poor to get educated, Let us build the Nation.

Christmas bargain hunters hit the sales early on Thursday as millions went online to snap up a deal.
Many retailers tried to woo customers by starting their internet sales before the sales in their stores, with many e-shoppers logging on in the early hours of Christmas morning.
Electronic goods such as TVs and laptops were proving popular with initial sales figures up on last year.
More than five million people were expected to log on to the sales throughout the course of the day, retail experts predicted.
Internet retail group IMRG estimated e-shoppers will splurge £103.6 million, up from the £84 million spent last year.
Predictions are so far proving accurate with retailers PC World, Currys and Dixons reporting that visitor numbers to the online sales sites up from between 30% to 40% on last year’s figures. The peak times for sales so far were between 1am and 5am on Thursday morning.
A spokeswoman for DSG International, the parent group of the three retailers, said the top sellers had been large televisions.
She explained: “We’ve seen a real rush in the early hours of this morning with people visiting the online sites so they can be first to the deals.
“This initial rush almost mirrors the patterns we see with sales on the high street. Large televisions have been selling particularly well, people seem to be using the sales as an opportunity to upgrade their sets.”
She said that laptops were the second best seller so far with high end washing machines in third place.

The mass airflow sensor, or MAF sensor, is a component in the throttle body that measures the mass of the air passing through it to assist the engine computer in determining the ideal air-fuel ratio. The MAF sensor takes into account variations in air density, which change with temperature and altitude, because a correct mixing is essential to effectiveness and clean combustion. One of the many things that can set off a check engine light is a faulty MAF sensor. Additionally, it could cause stalling, harsh running, or decreased gas mileage. If a MAF sensor is installed in the wrong way, it could cause the engine to run rough, the car to stop, or the sensor to fail completely. It is often asked can you put a MAF sensor in backwards? In this article, we would supply an answer to the topic in question, we will answer some related questions people are inquisitive about as we proceed.
Can you put a MAF sensor in backwards?
Yes, It is possible to put a MAF sensor in backwards. This is done if you have a car that has a MAF sensor in the factory. This is done as a safety precaution. If the sensor is installed in the wrong way, it could incorrectly measure the air flow and cause the car to run rough. In some cases, this could also cause the engine to stop.
How do you position a mass air flow sensor?
The MAF must be mounted on an intake tube that is at least 6 inches straight and at least 10 inches away from the throttle body. There should be at least 3 inches of straight on the side of the MAF nearest to the filter. There should be at least an inch of straight on the side of the MAF that faces the throttle body.
What happens when a MAF sensor is installed backwards?
Unless the intake system has been modified (and a mistake linked with it), it is typically challenging to install a maf backwards. The design of the sensor and sensor enclosure also has an impact on this.
While fitted backwards, the car may idle and rev without issue, but once it’s moving, the check engine light will undoubtedly come on, the car will stutter and stall when trying to accelerate, etc. The malfunction of the maf sensor will be indicated by diagnostic codes.
The issues are brought on by the sensor’s inability to accurately measure the air flow to the engine.
How can I Diagnose a Bad Mass Air Flow Sensor?
1. Check for Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs):
You should use a scan tool or code reader to obtain the relevant diagnostic issue codes if the check engine light is on. You can even get a cheap code reader for your smartphone these days.
Exists a DTC in the PCM’s memory that relates to MAF? The MAF sensor or its circuit may then be malfunctioning. Air/fuel ratio and misfire codes, as was noted, may potentially indicate an issue with the MAF sensor (though, there are many other possibilities, as well).
Remember: On older vehicles with a sort of self-diagnostics called OBD-1, a bad MAF sensor sometimes won’t set a code.
2. Perform a Visual Inspection
You can then proceed to conducting a visual inspection. You should search for problems like frayed cables and shoddy connections. Verify that the electrical connector for the MAF sensor is tidy and secure.
Clear the DTCs, fix any problems discovered during the visual inspection, and then check to see if the issue reappears.
3.Test the MAF Sensor
It can be challenging to test a MAF sensor. Hot film sensors provide a square wave digital frequency pattern, while hot wire sensors produce an analog voltage signal.
Knowing what kind of sensor you have is crucial, and before testing, you should always refer to the manufacturer service manual.
Can you put a MAF sensor in backwards?
In summary to the question asked, the answer remains Yes. It is possible to put a MAF sensor in backwards. This is done if you have a car that has a MAF sensor in the factory. This is done as a safety precaution. If the sensor is installed in the wrong way, it could incorrectly measure the air flow and cause the car to run rough. In some cases, this could also cause the engine to stop.

Conservation only way to save species from extinction, says experts
The dugong, commonly known as the sea cow, is fighting for its survival in Indian waters and unless conserved, could one day become extinct, experts have said on the eve of ‘World Dugong Day’ on May 28, 2020.
Dugongs are an endangered marine species like sea turtles, seahorses, sea cucumbers and others. They are protected in India under Schedule I of the Wild (Life) Protection Act, 1972.
There were just 250 dugongs in the Gulf of Mannar in Tamil Nadu, the Andaman and Nicobar Islands and the Gulf of Kutch in Gujarat according to the 2013 survey report of the Zoological Survey of India (ZSI).
The survey was conducted under the leadership of then ZSI director K Venkataraman, Basudev Tripathy deputy director of ZSI, Kolkata, told this reporter.
In 2010, we had counted 250 dugongs in the Gulf of Mannar, the Andamans and Gulf of Kutch through a boat survey, K Sivakumar, a senior scientist of the department of Endangered Species Management at the Wildlife Institute of India (WII), Dehradun, said.
This year, we will count the dugongs with the help of underwater drone cameras, he added.
There is no doubt that dugongs are an important part of the marine ecosystem and their depletion will have effects all the way up the food chain, Sivakumar noted.
Threats to dugongs
Dugongs are mammals, which means they give birth to live young and then produce milk and nurse them.
Once the female is pregnant, she will carry the unborn baby, called a foetus for 12-14 months before giving birth. Female dugongs give birth underwater to a single calf at three to seven-year intervals.
Dugongs graze on seagrass, especially young shoots and roots in shallow coastal waters. They can consume up to 40 kilograms of seagrass in a day.
Human activities such as the destruction and modification of habitat, pollution, rampant illegal fishing activities, vessel strikes, unsustainable hunting or poaching and unplanned tourism are the main threats to dugongs.
The loss of seagrass beds due to ocean floor trawling was the most important factor behind dwindling dugong populations in many parts of the world, Sivakumar said.
Hundreds of dugongs inhabited waters off the Odisha, West Bengal and Andhra Pradesh coasts two centuries back. But they are extinct in these areas now, he added.
Seagrass in Odisha’s Chilika lake is a proper habitat for dugongs. However, there is not extant population in Chilika, Sivakumar said.
He talked about how a decade back, fishermen used to sell dugong meat at Rs 1,000 per kilogram in Tamil Nadu, Gujarat and Andaman. Many gullible people used to consume the meat under the wrong impression that it would cool their body temperature.
The killings have stopped though, ever since, the WII began awareness drives among people.
We often organise dugong protection awareness camps among local fishermen and others in the seaside villages of Tamil Nadu, Gujarat and the Andamans, Sivakumar said.
The 13th Conference of Parties (CoP) of the Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals (CMS), an environmental treaty under the aegis of the United Nations Environment Programme, was hosted by India from February 17-22, 2020 at Gandhinagar in Gujarat.
The Government of India is a signatory to the CMS since 1983. India has signed non-legally binding Memorandums of Understanding with CMS on the conservation and management of Siberian Cranes (1998), Marine Turtles (2007), Dugongs (2008) and Raptors (2016), Sivakumar added.
Proper conservation is the only way to save dugongs from extinction. Conservation in other places like Australia has seen their population crossing 85,000, Tripathy said.

Radar is a preferred sensor for military and high-value installations globally, but unattractive to commercial buyers due to cost, size, weight, and power. Echodyne Corp. has reinvented radar, creating the world’s first small ESA radar sensor, EchoGuard. The EchoGuard radar system generates high-integrity data for integration with central security systems, classifying the object, cueing optical sensors for detailed identification and triggering security response protocols.
EchoGuard is a 3D surveillance radar system that is based on Echodyne’s proprietary Metamaterial Electronically Scanning Array (aka, “MESA”) technology. MESA™ uses “metamaterials” (engineered, artificial materials with properties not found in nature) to build a new architecture for an all-electronic scanning radar system. This use of metamaterials enabled Echodyne to design and manufacture an ESA with significantly lower: cost, size, weight and power-usage than other radar systems.
The MESA™ technology combined with Echodyne’s smart visualization and control software creates a sensor that intelligently adapts radar capabilities to mission objectives and presents high-integrity data output. It’s the only sensor with the range and accuracy to detect and track multiple targets simultaneously, whether on the perimeter or in the air, in all weather conditions. In addition, EchoGuard features….
- Affordability – cutting edge radar technology specifically engineered for commercial applications
- Excellent range and accuracy - scans a large expanse of territory with precision detection and tracking
- A solid-state form-factor
- Compact Size - approximates the size of a paperback book and weighs less than 3 lbs.
- Low power consumption
- Built for integration with multi-sensor systems
- Software suite affords calibration-free plug and play integration, digital configurability to accommodate different operators and missions
Visit our Technical Documents page to review the core specifications for the EchoGuard system.
Radar Solutions for a Layered Counter-Drone Strategy
MESA™ radar is an essential element in any multi-sensor array strategy designed to respond to unauthorized drone flights. EchoGuard uniquely tracks all objects of interest in a defined airspace. EchoGuard is a compact, solid-state, high performance ESA radar that simultaneously detects, tracks and classifies multiple objects of interest with the accuracy and fidelity of expensive military radar. And… it is commercially priced and ideally suited for counter-drone deployments
Two Deployment Options Are Available
Tower Mounting Kit – for hemispherical coverage of fixed installations. The Quad Array solution (four EchoGuard units) for 360° monitored airspace as part of a layered technology counter-drone strategy featuring:
- All-weather / 24-7-365 vigilance
- 1km sUAS radical detection range
- Simultaneous overlapping coverage without the inherent track update delay from rotational radar systems

About Salignac Castle
The Château de Salignac is the former castle of the Salignac-Fénelon family in the commune of Salignac-Eyvigues in the Dordogne département of France. It dates back to the 12th-16th centuries.
It has been classified since 1969 as a monument historique by the French Ministry of Culture.
Salignac Castle history
Salignac Castle is located in Salignac-Eyvigues, guarding the valley at the eastern edge of town. Now quiet and tranquil, the Dordogne region has a turbulent history.
The fortress originated in the 12th century when it only consisted of two stone dungeons. The other buildings were gradually added between the 13th and the 16th centuries.
During the Hundred Years War the castle was on the frontier between the English territory and the French territory and changed hands between the two sides on several occasions.
After the fighting subsided, this south-westerly region of France eventually gained more independence back with the establishment of its own parliament. Struggle for power continued amongst the aristocratic landowners. Left in ruins by the war, the castle was rebuilt in the 15th century, before the Wars of Religion in the 16th century.
This castle was refurbished by the Salignac family in the 16th century, resulting in the castle sporting a blend of medieval and renaissance features.
Salignac Castle today
The castle sits above the town and is not open for the public to go inside. Visitors can, however, walk up to the castle to get a closer view of its Lauze roof, dungeons, the square and the round towers that flank the main building. Approaching the castle from the north side offers a great view.
The true age of the buildings can be seen when viewing them from the back and as the extensions that have been added on over the years are visible. Analysing the different styles of building work offers the chance to piece together the true history of the building. Visitors can walk down the footpath that follows the castle wall to the lower fields and take in the dramatic view of the cliff and castle.
Getting to Salignac Castle
The castle is easiest to access on foot. Visitors can park in the main square and walk over to the tourist information building and pick up a map. If it is closed there is a town map outside which shows a suggested route. The route goes around the back of the square along the old medieval streets.

The aim of research work is to develop methods of studying how environmental contaminants influence nature and what effect they have on the fauna. Important fields of research are:
White tailed sea eagle. Photo: Göran Nyrén
- Developing reliable biological and chemical methods for studying temporal changes in the degree of contamination and their spatial variation.
- Studying the toxic effects of environmental contaminants on the wild fauna. Changes in the population status of certain highly exposed species are studied. These changes are then compared to reliable descriptions of bioavailable amounts of contaminants and their temporal and spatial variation stretching over more than three decades. Special attention is devoted to well-known toxic mechanisms. At present these effects are studied on species such as grey seals, harbour seals, ringed seals, otters, porpoises, white-tailed sea eagles, ospreys and guillemots. Many of these projects are carried out in collaboration with other research groups.
- Developing statistical methods and models for the critical analysis of environmental conditions and changes in the degree of contamination. The Group´s own data base of concentrations of environmental contaminants in biota is used to check the reliability of the models. The results of studies on temporal and spatial changes in contaminant levels are used to check whether the local models (biota-water-sediment), as well as regional transportation (equator-Palearctic-Arctic) can be verified by reliable data from the national monitoring of contaminants. The Group collaborates with institutions responsible for the chemical analysis of biota.
The work is financed by grants from governmental and private research funds.

In data released by The Jockey Club's Equine Injury Database for 2019, the rate of fatal injury for Thoroughbreds last year dropped to 1.53 per 1,000 starts from a rate of 1.68 in 2018. It was the first time the rate has decreased since 2016, and overall the fatality rate is down 23.5% from the 10-year high of 2.0 per 1,000 starts in 2009. Based on the data, 99.84% of flat racing starts at racetracks that participated in the EID occurred without a fatality. A graph depicting all updated statistical data pertaining to surface, distance and age is available here.
Per surface, the fatality rates in 2019 were 1.60 per 1,000 starts for dirt races, 1.53 for turf races and 0.93 for synthetic races. On dirt, there was a 14.2% drop in the rate from 2018 and overall there has been a 24.1% drop in dirt racing since 2009. Fatalities in turf races increased by 30%, while overall there has been a 19.6% drop in the fatality rate for turf races since 2009. On synthetic tracks, the rate dropped below 1.0 for the first time since annual summaries were first reported in 2009.
“Although the incidence of racing fatalities on dirt surfaces reached an all-time low in 2019 of 1.60, the results on turf increased from 1.20 in 2018 to 1.56 in 2019. The number of starts on turf has been trending upward and this increase in fatalities likely indicates a set of risk factors unique to turf racing may be driving the results,” said Dr. Tim Parkin, Professor of Veterinary Epidemiology at the University of Glasgow. “Understanding the factors that contribute to increased risk of fatality is a continuous pursuit, one that would benefit tremendously from reporting data on injuries to horses that occur during morning training hours.”
“The 23.5% reduction in fatal injuries since 2009 indicates that the Thoroughbred industry's commitment to equine safety is paying dividends,” said Kristin Werner, senior counsel of The Jockey Club. “Capturing injury data from morning training hours at racetracks as well as data related to treatments and procedures would greatly improve the precision of our risk models, increasing the ability of racetrack personnel to identify horses at risk even before they hit the entry box.”
Since March 2012, racetracks have been able to voluntarily publish their statistics from the EID on The Jockey Club website. The 27 tracks that self-reported in 2019 had a slightly higher incidence of fatality (1.53) than non-self-published (1.52) across all surfaces.
Racetracks accredited by the National Thoroughbred Racing Association (NTRA) Safety and Integrity Alliance had a lower incidence of fatality per 1,000 starts versus non-accredited tracks across all surfaces (1.46 vs. 1.59).
Colonial Downs had the lowest fatality rate among reporting tracks with over 1,000 starters, with no fatalities from 1,145 starters. The Fresno County Fair had its sixth consecutive year with a 0.00 rate, this year from 358 starters. The Sacramento Fair had its third perfect year, with 0.00 fatalities from 404 starters. Presque Isle was 0.34, from 5,829 starters. Del Mar has seen declines in three straight years, and reported a 0.62 rate in 2019. Golden Gate was right behind them with 0.64. Aqueduct at .81 rounds out the tracks who came in at under 1.00.
Short races of fewer than six furlongs have consistently been associated with the greatest incidence of racing fatality. In addition, 2-year-olds again had the lowest rate of catastrophic injuries compared to 3-year-old and older horses.
The list of racetracks participating in the Equine Injury Database and detailed statistics from those tracks that voluntarily publish their results can be found here.
Throughout the course of 2020, 111 racetracks accounting for approximately 99% of flat racing days are expected to contribute data to the EID.

Last Friday morning, the day stretched luxuriously before me: cooking soup and cholent for the Shabbos guests, a walk in Prospect Park, Brooklyn, a visit to a friend—and no freelancing at all, easy to do in this economy. Then my husband called. Someone had painted a swastika on the front of Fischman’s grocery. The police were there.
In the block-and-a-half walk from my home to Fischman’s, I heard conflicting reports from passersby that swastikas had been spray-painted around the Borough Park neighborhood of Brooklyn—on eight buildings or nine, on five shuls or one; no one was clear, and most were blasé.
“This is not news,” the owner of the baby-furniture store near Fischman’s told a reporter. “You think this is the first time this has happened in our neighborhood?”
Sadly, the man on the street was right. For years, Nazi symbols have been the calling-card of choice for disturbed pranksters as well as genuine anti-Semites throughout Brooklyn—and from Colorado Springs, Colorado, to Boston, Massachusetts. So, while this weekend’s appearance of swastikas and other anti-Semitic graffiti is drama to eager local news teams, the residents of Borough Park have largely taken the incidents in stride.
A few years ago, a bus-stop sign on 16th Avenue, down the street from me, was the canvas on which a graphic, but unimaginative graffitist described what he earnestly believed should be done to the Jews. Just about every person I asked over the past few days has witnessed something similar. In Borough Park, Orthodox Jews aren’t the only targets; in a show of unwitting egalitarianism, the progressive synagogue on 46th Street was defaced this weekend, and in nearby Kensington, a van was also spray-painted with a swastika on Sunday evening, all part of a wave of vandalism for which the New York Police have yet to find a suspect.
In the days since, I’ve talked with some Borough Park residents, including Holocaust survivors and their children and grandchildren, to parse the attacks and reflect on the fact that Jews are seen as both “other” and “victim.” I asked if anyone remembered Daniel Haddad, a Jew who was tied to similar crimes this past January. Sixty-year-old Scheindel Fischman, the great-grandmother whose grocery store was marked with a swastika last week, agreed that today perhaps our most haunting fear is that, “G-d forbid, a Jew should be involved in this crime.” But that a vandal had defaced her property? That was nothing a little detergent couldn’t handle.
Before I was religious, my encounters with anti-Semitism were unspectacular. A few decades ago, on the day we moved to Colts Neck, N.J.—as far away from the Jew-filled Upper West Side as my parents could get and still have access to the theater, symphony, and opera—the neighbors’ children arrived en masse and asked to see my brother’s and my horns. In fifth grade the impish, freckled Adam Smith threw a penny in the air: He said it was a test to see if there were any Jews in the room. (The teacher giggled.) And later, while attending a high-school party at the semi-restricted Merion Cricket Club in suburban Philadelphia, my friends told me to not sign the guestbook with my real name. As a woman in my 20s and 30s, I more than occasionally overheard anti-Semitic remarks in England, where I lived for a few years. I just swallowed the uncomfortable feeling and looked the other way.
Has the rhetoric been ratcheted up? As a visibly Torah-observant Jew, I occasionally meet people through work who seem to feel entitled to scold me about the shameful behavior of other Orthodox Jews—or how people like me should know better than to support Israel, with its “Nazi policies of genocide against the Palestinian people,” or other such phrasings.
I’m sensitive to the fact that trauma can leave a stain that sometimes inks generations. In the last couple of years the remaining Holocaust survivors who had lived in my apartment building passed away (most recently, the inspirational Rachel Knopfler and Bernard Eimer), as well as several others in the neighborhood, but a few more remain.
One of them, Herta Kohn, told me over the phone: “These swastikas? It’s hard—very painful. Look, I was 10. In Vienna.” She paused and sighed, then went on: “I am a Holocaust survivor. There’s hardly anybody left. Today’s children—it’s not real for them. It’s like they read it in a book.”
Kohn also recognized a sweeping generational difference: “This generation always has simchas—weddings, bar mitzvahs, brissim,” she said. For many survivors, with their paucity of family members, a wedding or bris was an unusual occurrence. For them, Jewish life-cycle simchas were evidence of spiritual victory over evil, not common events like they are today in a growing neighborhood where over 4,000 babies are born each year. Many survivors lost entire families and then began again with new spouses, in the model of the Klausenberger Rebbe, who survived Auschwitz, a death march, and Dachau—losing his first wife and 11 children—to go on to remarry and have seven children.
Borough Park resident Bracha Klein, a 60-year-old great-grandmother, said her father had a “whole other family” who were killed by the Nazis. Like her, many other children who survived the war, she said, never met a zaide or bubbe, which in today’s Brooklyn Jewish neighborhoods, where many children know their great-grandparents, is almost unimaginable.
For Kohn, Friday’s events unleashed powerful emotion. She said, “I speak about the war a lot. Not everyone can do this. People want to put it out of their memory. And this generation wants to put it out of their memory, too. The second generation, though, they remember. They saw what it did to their parents.”
Kohn is able—even needs—to talk about what she endured. But not everyone is able to, said Fischman, whose parents were Holocaust survivors. “My parents didn’t mention a word about the war or what they went through,” she said. She and her siblings never asked. “We were in awe of them and accorded them great honor. We believed their lives were private and wouldn’t have dreamed of prying into their personal thoughts.” Fischman said she learned the details of what her parents went through from nephews and nieces, “because they were the ones who felt comfortable asking questions.”
As I’ve got to know two and three generations of friends’ families, I’ve noticed this. Children of Holocaust survivors are sometimes the “skipped” generation; they don’t know the details of what their parents went through until they are told by their own children or other, younger relatives. More than a handful haven’t brought up the camps, hunger, and death with their parents, because they don’t want to hurt them, because their parents don’t bring it up, and sometimes because they’re afraid of tapping into repressed pain that can’t be contained.
Fischman’s parents were made of very strong stuff: Their faith in God and their stalwart natures sustained them. Fischman remembered them as positive, always looking forward. Not everyone is able to do this, she conceded. “An elderly survivor, a lady from Hungary, often comes in to buy her groceries,” Fischman said. “This lady was deeply affected by the war and is still afraid.” Sometimes, as she checks out the groceries, they talk, and “she cries, here in the store.”
But Fischman had practical issues to deal with; after all, there was a swastika on her doorway. “My first response was to grab a Mr. Clean eraser sponge and wipe it away,” she said. The police stopped her before she was able to destroy evidence.
“I was taught by my mother—as children we walked to school on the Eggerton Road, in Stamford Hill, London, and the other children would call us ‘bloody Jews’ and throw bottles and stones at us—to ignore the hatred and look the other way,” she said. “Mummy was the war generation, and this was nothing new for her. But today, we have to, we must, stick up for ourselves.”
By Saturday afternoon, Shabbos, an hour before mincha, the afternoon prayers, there were more uniformed and undercover New York police officers on the street than I’ve seen since the High Holidays some years ago, when the national guard was stationed here, complete with automatic weapons and camouflage, because of threats to synagogues. On the corner of 43rd Street and 15th Avenue, a movie-star-handsome policeman in full uniform stood in front of Freund’s Fish Store, which was closed for the Sabbath. A gaggle of smitten boys in their best Shabbos clothing and shined shoes surrounded him. The grin on his face signaled how much he was enjoying his assignment to this Yiddish-accented answer to Mayberry.
In Borough Park, children who have never seen a movie or television show, let alone heard of The Wire or CSI, fervently admire police officers, firefighters, and construction workers (and even mail carriers in their summer pith helmets). And the cops seem to adore the kids right back. My husband and I walked on.
The swastikas were a momentary blip in an otherwise normal Erev Shabbos. The younger boys only had eyes for the after-effects: a uniform stationed on every corner. Victimhood doesn’t seem to be in this new generation’s psycho-spiritual makeup—and except for the politicians and publicity-seekers, most people just want to move on.

Journey with us as we venture behind the brand. Meet the MAEKAH of Saturday the Label, Shani Tomkins.
Founded in 2018 on the shores of Sydney, Saturday the Label was born from a drive to redefine style, accessibility and affordability in the lingerie sector.
Get to know the woman behind this beautiful business.
What inspired you to start STL?
Growing up my Mum was the most creative woman. She worked three jobs, held down a household and would always inspire us to create. We would always be drawing, designing and making things to entertain ourselves. Whenever we wanted to buy something new, she would always say ‘we could make that’ (which frustrated me greatly back then). When I was in my 20’s and I couldn’t find a bra to wear under an outfit, I decided to make it myself. I got so many compliments that I decided to design a few more to be made in Bali. I loved them so much I wanted to share them with the world, so I just kept designing on the weekend (on Saturday's). It wasn’t until I finished 11yrs in the advertising industry to have a baby that I decided to pick it up and share my designs with the world. 2.5yrs later, here we are.
Who are your personal style icons?
I have always loved Christine Centenera, her style has always been chic and edgy. Elle Ferguson has also been someone I’ve found relatable and her style is always accessible.
Tell us some sustainability facts about your brand?
We work to zero waste, meaning we only buy what we use.
We buy a single colour mesh, then we dye the fabric different colours with natural dyes - hence why there are sometimes imperfections.
We use 100% compostable cornstarch packing backs that are recycled. Our packaging is made from recycled materials and can be recycled again and again.
We started Project 360, which is a first of its kind initiative that allows customers to return their old bras so we can deconstruct them and recycle them.
We partner with Thread Together to donate any faulty but still completely wearable pieces to people in need to reduce waste even further and support our local community.
We do all our product sampling digitally to reduce air freight and we off set all of our shipping through a company called Future Neutral.
Customers can offset the shipping of their products at checkout by donating to Future Neutral also.
Our next collection will be made with a 100% organic cotton.
Who are the MAEKAH'S of your pieces?
We work in showrooms rather than bulk make in factories and all of our pieces are lovingly and individually handmade. We hand design our samples in our warehouse in Sydney. We then work with a beautiful team in Hong Kong to produce our products. The reason we chose Hong Kong is mainly to reduce air freight on fabric sourcing and production times. The company is certified sustainable and works in a beautiful and ethical showroom that even offsets its energy usage through solar power (they are next level amazing). We have quite a large in-house design/production team there, but day-to-day, Eda is our beautiful tech designer.
What is your favourite STL piece to wear?
The Dylan in Black. It just so classic and literally the most comfortable bra I’ve ever worn.
How do you love to spend your weekend?
With my husband and our 2 year old son Mason. Mainly at the park, beach or at home in our backyard.
Tell us how you are sustainable in your personal life?
We recycle everything and we have just invested in a little worm farm/compost out the back for food waste.
If you could have dinner with any celeb, dead or alive, who would it be?
I'd have to say my Mum, we sadly lost her a few years ago. I think would also have to say Roald Dahl, Will Ferrel and James Corden?
Where is your next meal out planned?
The girls are taking me out for my Birthday on Friday to a fancy seafood restaurant by the ocean where we live!! Can't wait.
We loved hearing about Shani's journey, lifestyle and brand and her words of wisdom make us even prouder to stock the gorgeous Saturday the Label.

Drummond Co. said a possible strike by union workers at its Colombian operation would be illegal under the laws of that country.
The Birmingham company issued a statement Wednesday responding to comments by the Sintramienergetica union in Colombia that workers there had voted to authorize a strike.
Drummond said it has an agreement with all of the unions represented in its operations in Colombia, including its port, with the exception of Sintramienergetica, which is threatening to strike. The company said it will deal with any strike by that union under Colombian laws.
Also, the company said a vote by employees Monday did not receive the number required for a strike, contrary to reports from the union.
