BenitoLink was born out of a two-year visioning process which involved listening to nearly a thousand residents of San Benito County.
Members of the community cited the lack of local news and information as a major concern. With the help of the CommunityFoundation for San Benito County, private donors and the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation and Vision San Benito, a small group developed BenitoLink, an on-line web portal created by San Benito residents for San Benito residents. BenitoLink is designed to include local news, events, sports, opinions and community discussion forums.
Grants from the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation and the Community Foundation for San Benito County were made available with the intention to support an open, communicative well-informed democracy. Today, INN (Institute for Nonprofit News) also plays a major role, supporting our annual Pledge of Champions fall fundriasing event.
Benitolink has a board of local and regional residents and advisors who run BenitoLink as a non-profit business. Interested community members are invited to sit in on committee or board meetings to learn more about BenitoLink.

Artificial intelligence, or AI, is cutting edge science and many research projects are using it to find ways to develop assistive technology, better medical treatments and so much more. Could AI robots ever replace humans though? Well, machines like calculators, computer servers, and some kinds of factory machinery can outperform humans for certain tasks, but what about other jobs that require thought and consideration? In this video, physicist Max Tegmark explains some of what goes into intelligence, and why it's not entirely impossible or some machines to have intelligence.
Regarding physics, the processing the brain does to figure out a problem is about certain particles moving about, and none of the laws of physics say that man-made equipment couldn't be engineered to do the same kind of processing. History has shown a gradual increase in the ability of machines to learn, so there is likely much more to be discovered about AI. The biggest concern shouldn't be about whether or not machines could turn evil, but rather how good they might get at their tasks. Aligning the goals of AI with the goals of the humans who will use it should be the first concern.

My brother, Stuart aka The Bison, moved to Wellington a few weeks ago. It’s really cool to hang out with him. Like last night we were playing Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 on MAME… and we were having a ball.
Back when we were living together and he was still at intermediate/high school, he had a mega drive, and we used to play Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3, and we’d beat each other up. My favorite character was Liu Kang, so I’d be all like “Bicycle Kick Bicycle Kick Fireball Fireball Upper-Cut” and he’d be Kabal and he’d be all like “Mincey Mincey Mincey Mincey” and he’d kick my ass 🙂 So re-living that last night was real cool.
We also played some
Star Control 2 Ur-Quan Masters : Super Melee and he kicked my ass, again… So I burnt it to CD for him… I know he’ll enjoy it 🙂

|Sir David Frost|
Every week, Sir David Frost, one of the most celebrated broadcasters, offers you a programme which takes its stories and guests from every part of the globe.
The world's news makers will be interviewed with Sir David's incisive style.
Sir David will get behind the headlines and examine the decisions and policies which shape global politics today.
Coming up this week on Frost over the World:
Shahbaz Sharif & Maria Kuusisto
|Shahbaz Sharif and Maria Kuusisto|
Shahbaz Sharif, the brother of former Pakistani prime minister Nawas Sharif, and Maria Kuusisto, an Asia analyst at the Eurasia group, join Sir David to discuss the double bomb attack that targeted Benazir Bhutto, another former Pakistani prime minister, upon her return to Pakistan after eight years in exile.
They discuss who may have been behind the attack following Bhutto's claim that supporters of the late military ruler General Zia were responsible and whether it will serve to boost Bhutto's popularity.
Sharif says the incident reveals the failure of the Pakistani president, Pervez Musharraf, to control terrorism, something he attributes to his failure "to win the hearts and minds of the people".
John Bolton & Husam Zomlot
|Husam Zomlot says the suffering of the|
Palestinian people is unbearable
Condoleezza Rice, the US secretary of state, has again been visiting the Middle East in a last ditch effort to save next months US-sponsored peace conference. But a recent poll has revealed that 57 per cent of Palestinians think the conference will be a failure.
John Bolton, the former US ambassador to the UN, and Husam Zomlot, the Palestinian representative, join Sir David to discuss why the majority of Palestinians are sceptical about the chances of peace.
Bolton reveals that he not only expects the conference will be a failure but fears it "may actually result in setting back diplomacy in the region".
But Zomlot insists that the Palestinian people cannot afford not to explore any opportunity to improve their position "let alone an opportunity that is backed and sponsored by the United States. Let alone an opportunity that in the words of Dr Rice is in the strategic interest of America now that the creation of a viable, independent, solvent Palestinian state is in the strategic interest of America. And therefore we don't sit and choose when our people are dying by the day, when the situation is getting more desperate".
|Former cricketer Ian Botham talks to Sir David|
Former cricketer Ian Botham made his test debut for England in 1977 - 30 years on and he has just received a knighthood for his services to cricket and charity.
He joins Sir David to discuss his new book, Head On - the autobiography of Ian Botham, which is the 'walts and all' account of his sometimes headline-grabbing life.
Botham reveals what he considers to be the key qualities for a successful sports person and why the selfishness and blooded-mindedness necessary to make it in sport often means that those closest to you suffer as a result.Watch the interview with Ian Botham on YouTube
The Communist Party of China held its 17th National Congress in Beijing this week. Kerry Brown, the China anaylist at the Chatham House thinktank, joins the show to discuss the impact of China's most important political event on the country and the rest of the world.
He also discusses the importance of next year's Olympics and China's relationship with North Korea and Taiwan.
|Omer Taspinar joins the show from Washington|
Earlier this week the Turkish parliament voted in favour of a military incursion into Iraq to destroy Kurdish rebel bases. The US is opposed to any such incursion and fears it might further destabilise Iraq.
Relations between the two countries already appear strained after the US approved the Armenian genocide resolution.
Omer Taspinar, the director of the Turkey programme at the Brookings Institute, joins the show from Washington DC to discuss whether a storm is brewing between Turkey and the US.

Rocket launch from Virginia tests new tech
WALLOPS ISLAND, Virginia (AP) — NASA is reviewing data from a rocket launch that tested a new sub-payload deployment method for suborbital rockets.
NASA says a Black Brant IX suborbital rocket was launched at 5 a.m. Thursday from the agency’s Wallops Island Flight Facility on Virginia’s Eastern Shore.
The new deployment method uses small rocket motors to eject sub-payloads from a rocket’s main payload. Thursday’s test included releasing vapor traces in space.
The NASA Sounding Rocket Program Office is reviewing data on the test’s performance.


US companies plan upstart stock exchange
The leading stock exchanges in the US are about to face new competition.
A group of nine financial companies has announced plans to launch their own trading market, dubbed the Members Exchange, aiming to bypass the New York Stock Exchange and the Nasdaq.
They said their goal is to reduce costs and simplify trading.
The plan is backed by firms that include Morgan Stanley, Fidelity Investment, UBS and Bank of America Merrill Lynch.
The firms, which will own the new exchange collectively, said they would file papers for the new exchange with the US market regulator, the Securities and Exchange Commission, early this year.
Approval is not expected until at least 2020.
Douglas Cifu, chief executive of another firm involved in the Members Exchange, Virtu Financial, said: "The launching of MEMX is a testament to the market-wide demand for competition, innovation, and transparency."
Data has gained industry importance as analysis gets easier and algorithms are increasingly used to guide investor activity.
Some information is public. But traders and brokers have complained for years about the fees they are charged to access additional data. In some instances they have asked regulators to intervene.
In a statement on Monday, the World Federation of Exchanges (WFE), which represents companies that operate exchanges, defended the current system, saying exchanges create the data and set fees based on its value to the customer.
It's not the first time investors have sought to shake up the industry.
In 2008, investment banks in Europe set up an exchange called Turquoise, in a similar effort to increase competition.
Although loss-making, it gained a 7% share of the market before being getting taken over by the London Stock Exchange.
In the US, the IEX Group launched a new national stock exchange in 2016. That exchange, known as the Investors Exchange, currently claims about 2.6% of the market.
Three big companies dominate the rest of the market: the Nasdaq; the Intercontinental Exchange, which runs the New York Stock Exchange; and the CBOE, which focuses more on options contracts and currency exchanges.
Shares in Intercontinental Exchange fell more than 2% after the Members Exchange announcement on Monday.
Shares in Nasdaq sank 2.6% while the CBOE dropped 1.9%.

It’s Thunder Trike, the super hero who roars into battle on a tricycle!
Or maybe just the guy with badly placed cover art.
In the 1990s, when heroes weren’t donning metallic versions of their union suits, they were running into copycats – Captain America had USAgent, Iron Man had War Machine and Thor had … Thunderstrike! Despite a shocking ponytail, the so-called ‘everyman Avenger’ headlined his own comic for a couple of years before being killed off. So he must have had his fans.
I wasn’t one – nothing against the guy, but one Thor/Cap/Iron Man was quite enough for me. And that hairdo …
Sixteen years on, he’s back, and I’m giving his first issue a try, mainly to see how writer Tom DeFalco approaches the mainstream Marvel Universe after years spent chaperoning Spider-Girl in an imaginary future. The other point of interest, given how many appalling outfits he wore in his previous short publishing existence, is to see how Marvel updates Thunderstrike’s look for the 21st century.
Not at all, as it happens – the hero returns in his best-known outfit, a combination of Thor’s iconic shirt, naff sleeveless leather jacket and that stupid ponytail. But there is one big difference – Eric Masterson remains dead, and his teenage son, Kevin, has inherited his body, along with his magical mace. Kev’s already an angry little snot, so heaven knows how he’ll react to looking like a guy rejected by the Village People for seeming too camp.
Kevin’s actually the only problem with this story. Oh sure, he’ll go on the old Hero’s Journey, and learn to be a better person, but by the time the process begins here he already has me hoping he’ll get eaten by a passing troll. He’s angry at some kid at his school for reasons unknown, his mother for moving the family to New York, his stepdad for trying to be a nice guy, the Avengers for supposedly letting his father get killed, his dad for getting killed … If the Thunderstrike mace had an enchantment akin to that which ensures Thor’s hammer can be lifted only by the worthy, Kevin would remain happily ponytail free.
As it is, America’s Top Cop (TM) Steve Rogers simply hands him the weapon because it’s legally his, brushing aside Girl Friday Sharon Carter’s protestations that the kid’s a loose cannon. ‘I’ve helped former super-villains go on to become the greatest Avengers,’ he points out.
And I’ve few doubts he’ll be proven right. The minute a crisis breaks out, Kevin steps up to help, and the spell connected to the mace kicks in, transforming him into Thunderstrike/Dad/Fabio. The final few pages of the story have Kevin and the new Rhino going at it hammer and tong, with DeFalco capturing Kevin’s eminently reasonable confusion rather well. It’s interesting to see how a bullying teenager’s attitude so easily translates into the righteous boasts of a superhero.
The fight scene is a wonderful example of old school Marvel – bombastic, unambiguous fun, courtesy of veteran penciller Ron Frenz and finisher Sal Buscema … there’s a reason these chaps have survived for decades in a competitive industry. They know how to tell a story, they know how to sell a story. There’s nothing especially innovative here, the reader is simply allowed to relax into the tale.
I’m not sure whether to credit Frenz, or the excellent letterer Dave Sharpe, but the sound effects are first class- there’s at least one brilliant homage to John Workman, whose calligraphy helped define an era of Thor. And colourist Bruno Hang does a decent job, though the lasting tonal impression is a tad brown for my liking.
So how does DeFalco cope, back in the 616 universe? Just fine. He knows how to craft a fast-moving, coherent comic strip – characters are introduced, backstory is woven in and the premise of the series is laid out, while the dialogue is more than decent.
But that’s not all he wrote. There’s a back-up, drawn by Todd Nauck, which shines a light on a moment of mystery in the lead strip, while spotlighting the many looks of Thunderstrike – verily, he be the Norse god of style disasters. It’s a useful recap for us newcomers which also manages to move the new story forward.
Thunderstrike #1 is a comfortable, enjoyable read, a great example of classic superheroics and I’ll be back next month to see what happens next. I hope the market has room for a well-done, fairly traditional comic book.

Welcome to Tiger of the Stripe
Tiger of the Stripe is a small, independent book publisher based in the Borough of Richmond upon Thames in southwest London. Richmond is an attractive and historically-interesting town. It was known as Sheen (Scēon in Old English) until Henry VII built a new palace here in about 1500 and renamed the town after Richmond in Yorkshire. In turn, it gave its name to Richmond, Virginia. We are fortunate to have both Richmond Park and the Royal Botanical Gardens, Kew, on our doorstep, and Hampton Court is also close.
Tiger of the Stripe is not a subsidy or vanity publisher. That is to say that we pay authors, not the other way around!
or the Loathsome History of a Malcontent
Julia Lacey Brooke
A swooping, evocative tale spanning nearly fifty years, The Mischief-Maker is a story of ambition, hubris and retribution. From the sixties to the present, from England and Ireland to Italy and the United States, we follow the lives of a diverse group of people whose fates are inextricably caught up, whether they know it or not. No-one – not the government minister, the cabaret artist, the television personality, the forgotten pop star or the academic’s widow – is immune from a certain malign influence. Secrets long hidden come back to destroy them. Someone who remembers all too well has known them all.
The Mischief-Maker is a subtle, noirish tragicomedy, one which sweeps the reader along and creates an intense interest in what happens next, and to whom, and why.
Julia Lacey Brooke read English Literature and Renaissance History at the University of East Anglia, later taking an MLitt at the University of Birmingham’s Shakespeare Institute in Stratford-upon-Avon. Now based in rural Tuscany, she is a freelance editor, teacher and lecturer, and writes satirical fiction. The Stoic, the Weal & the Malcontent,her absorbing study of macontentedness on the Elizabethan and Jacobean stage, was published by Tiger of the Stripe in 2013 and on 5 March 2014 Julia gave a talk at the British Institute in Florence on ‘Miscreants and Machiavels: the Italian Influence on Jacobean Drama’. A poster for that event can be downloaded here.
We believe this to be the most important publication in the history of Tiger of the Stripe. It is one of the best novels we have read in years.
Coming up in 2014
2014 is shaping up to be the most important year in Tiger of the Stripe’s history. On 5 March Julia Lacey Brooke gave a talk at the British Institute in Florence on Italian influences on Jacobean Drama and we treated the event as a rather belated launch party for The Stoic, the Weal & the Malcontent.
On 12 June we start publishing Julia’s quite remarkable fiction, starting with The Mischief-Maker, a novel we considered so good that we entered it for the Man Booker.
Also in 2014, probably September, we'll be publishing newcomer Anton de Moresco’s whodunnit, Isleworth Madonna, set in that most ancient and venerable institution, the University of Isleworth. We have no hesitation in saying that it is one of the most unusual novels to spring unbidden from Isleworth’s fecund soil.

Bank of Where?
What is there to stop another meltdown of Scotland's financial institutions? Good regulation, of course. But by whom?
It seems an independent Scotland would look to the Bank of England to provide that cross-border security.
That may not look a whole lot like independence. But it might provide some reassurance to bank customers, to financial institutions themselves and - let's not forget - to referendum voters.
To rewind, the failure of the tripartite regulation by the Bank of England, Financial Services Authority (FSA) and UK Treasury is blamed for the near failure of Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS) and Halifax Bank of Scotland (HBOS).
And the rescue for those two giants is credited to the capacity of the UK Government to borrow enough money to bail them out, followed by a sharp devaluation of the pound to help soften the blow. With its own central bank and its own currency, the UK had the flexibility that troubled eurozone countries now conspicuously lack.
Both the coalition government at Westminster and the SNP one at Holyrood have blamed the previous regulatory regime for failing to spot the systemic risk posed by hyper-risky banks. They focussed instead on individual institutions, and apparently failed to do that particularly well.
So we've got reform already under way. The Bank of England is taking over from the FSA that role of overseeing institutions and their systemic risk. Other bodies will concern themselves with specific oversight of individual institutions' balance sheets (the Prudential Regulation Authority, or PRA) and another still (the Financial Conduct Authority, or FCA) to oversee the management of financial firms, promoting competition and consumer protection.
How might this look if Scotland were independent? John Swinney, the finance secretary, delivered a lecture at Glasgow Caledonian University on Monday that offered some insight into his thinking. This was in the context of explaining why he thinks the rest of the UK will be willing to share a currency with Scotland, a subject on which the Holyrood government has been under pressure.
"As the Bank of England takes on the role of regulator for UK financial services - a very sensible and long overdue position - retaining the pound will preserve the highly-integrated UK financial services market," he told his academic audience.
"That framework is solid and substantial and I know that understanding our proposal is important to many of you in making your decisions about Scotland's future"
A spokeswoman confirmed this is his way of saying that he foresees oversight of the financial system coming from the Bank of England. As for lower level issues such as consumer protection? Well, that's up for discussion.
This is difficult stuff for SNP ministers. Their rhetoric about the financial crisis has been about failed regulation from London being more significant than the failings of bankers in Scotland.
And even if Mr Swinney thinks the coalition government's reforms are welcome, it still looks like regulation from London. And from London, it looks a bit presumptious that a Scottish government can assume the protection of institutions based in London.
But the nationalist view is that the Bank of England, being a central bank for the whole of the United Kingdom, is not the creature of Whitehall or of the rest of the UK, but of Scotland as well.
Likewise, the pound sterling is "as much Scotland's currency as it is the currency of England and Wales".
This looks increasingly like being a vital area of dispute in negotiating constitutional break-up of the United Kingdom - the perception that institutions in London belong to the rest of the UK and a new status for Scotland would require new institutions, versus the assertion that Scotland can vote to be independent while demanding a share of the UK's institutional legacy.
It applies to cross-border energy markets and assets, to cross-border telecom and rail networks, and to the BBC.
But for now, the trickiest issue is around the currency, and its implications for business. The SNP has abandoned any mention of the euro being the preferable currency option. John Swinney told his Glasgow audience: "Retaining the pound under independence is something that I believe is in the interests of Scotland, the rest of the UK and the stability of sterling itself". He wasn't saying that five and more years ago.
"Regardless of what may be said in the heat of constitutional debate it would simply not make sense for anyone to resist the creation of a formal sterling zone and the mutual benefit it would bring".
This refers to resistance from Whitehall to the idea that Scotland can assume a deal on control of the Bank of England, including the reassurance that it provides backstop lending if Scotland's banks run into trouble. Scottish ministers assume instead that the rest of the UK will happily agree to Scotland getting the bits of the UK it wants to keep and share, while jettisoning the bits it doesn't like.
The finance secretary stressed how closely integrated the Scottish economy is with the rest of this sterling zone, adding: "A sterling zone will provide businesses both in Scotland and the rest of the UK with the certainty for trade, investment and growth".
And that is the platform on which he makes the case for targeting economic levers at stimulating growth, indicating he'd like to cut VAT to boost tourism and construction, while using tax credits to reverse Scotland's big and long-standing shortfall in private sector research and development.
While some of the arguments about the integration of Scotland's economy with the rest of the UK can equally be deployed against independence, the Glasgow Caledonian lecture underlines the important role John Swinney will play in providing the pro-independence campaign with sober reassurance for business and more conservative voters, wondering what happens to their savings and investments.

Peanut Butter Cup Ice Cream is the one of the most popular ice cream flavors around. And now you can make it homemade in your own kitchen!
My son and I were watching the Red Sox beat the Yankees last night, and the pitcher was literally dripping with sweat. I said to my son, “Wow, it must be hot back East!” We happen to live in San Diego, where the temperature is pretty mild all year long, and it’s currently only in the low 70’s. So my son’s response was, “No way Mom. It must be raining.”
I guess it’s kind of difficult to comprehend that it’s already sweltering in places like Boston and NYC and Atlanta and Dallas… when we’re still feeling a slight chill in the air. So for all of you experiencing that icky, HOT weather already, I made some Peanut Butter Cup Ice Cream. You’re welcome.
Ingredients needed for Peanut Butter Cup Ice Cream:
This is such a super simple ice cream recipe- only the ingredients you see here are involved. You’ll need milk, cream, vanilla, peanut butter, sugar and peanut butter cups. There are no eggs in the recipe… which means no heating up and no custard-making and no waiting for the mixture to chill before you process it in your ice cream maker. You have an ice cream maker, right??
If you’re a fan of peanut butter and chocolate together, you’re mostly likely a big fan of peanut butter cups. And if you’re a fan of peanut butter cups, I’m sure you’ll agree with me that they are really, really awesome when they’re fresh out of the freezer.
So it’s really a no-brainer to put them in ice cream, where you can eat a piece of frozen peanut butter cup in every bite. Yep.
This is an easy ice cream recipe to make because you just mix the base ingredients together and you can put it in your ice cream machine right away. You don’t have to wait for it to chill overnight. Immediate gratification!
When I made this for the first time, I had a bite, or two, or more likely about 36. It was worth every calorie. It was worth every peanut buttery, slightly salty and chocolatey chunky bite. It was worth the extra miles I had to run at the gym and the salad I ate for lunch.
I suggest you make it, especially if you’re in one of those HOT places right now, or if you’re a Red Sox fan (because I like you), or if you’re just craving chocolate-peanut butter things. And just for the record, I like Yankee’s fans too (the nice ones) 🙂
Here are a few more ice cream recipes you might enjoy:
- Cookies n’ Cream Ice Cream
- Blueberry Cheesecake Ice Cream
- Snickerdoodle Ice Cream
- Cake Batter Ice Cream
- Low Fat Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream
- Toasted Marshmallow- Brownie Malt Ice Cream
- Peppermint Ice Cream
- Vanilla Bean Ice Cream
Peanut Butter Cup Ice Cream
- Ice Cream Maker
- 1¼ cups creamy peanut butter
- 3/4 cup granulated white sugar
- 1¼ cups whole milk
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 1½ teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1½ cups chopped chocolate peanut butter cups (8 to 10 regular size PB cups)
MAKE THE BASE:
- In a medium mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to combine peanut butter and sugar until smooth. Add milk and mix on low until sugar is dissolved- a full two minutes. You don't want to be tasting crunches of sugar in your ice cream, so give it a chance to dissolve. Mix in heavy cream and vanilla and beat until well combined and smooth.
PROCESS THE ICE CREAM:
- Turn on your ice cream machine, pour the base in the freezer bowl (make sure it has been in your freezer for 24 hours), and let mix until thickened, about 25 to 30 minutes. A couple of minutes before you're ready stop the mixing, add in the chopped peanut butter cups. The ice cream will be a soft-serve consistency. You can eat it right away, or freeze to eat later. If you freeze it for later, it will be more ice-cream-scoopable. Let it sit out for a few minutes before you try to scoop it.
- *This recipe is GLUTEN FREE adaptable. If you're preparing this recipe as Gluten Free, make sure you use Reeses snack size or miniatures (those are known to be GF), and use a brand of peanut butter that is recognized as GF.
- *Here's an easy way to measure sticky peanut butter: Just spray the measuring cups with nonstick spray before you spoon the peanut butter into them. It'll slide right out!
- *Make sure you freeze your ice cream processor's freezer bowl for a full 24 hours before processing your ice cream.

The fund manager Aberdeen “would love to” acquire a competitor in America, its chief executive said as the group reported its fourth consecutive year of customer withdrawals.
Aberdeen, whose emerging markets investments have been buffeted by global economic worries, reported a 28pc slump in underlying profits to £352.7m for the year to September, as net outflows reached £32.8bn for the year. Revenues fell 14pc to £1bn.
Rival manager Henderson announced plans to merge with the US bond specialist Janus in October as pressure from fees and regulatory costs prompt mid-sized investment firms around the world to consider scaling up.
“We’ve been trying for about five years in the market and haven’t found anything,” said chief executive Martin Gilbert. “We would love to do something in the US but let’s wait and see. Certainly the Janus and Henderson deal is a very smart one.
“The exchange rate obviously makes doing something in the US more expensive,” he added, referring to the 15pc fall in the pound against the dollar since the EU referendum. “But that’s part of doing a deal, you’ve to work with the exchange rate you get.”
The business is now managing £312.1bn, an increase of 10pc over the past year, as positive market movements and extra assets from small acquisitions such as the private equity manager Flag counteracted the withdrawals made by clients.
Investors took £32.8bn out of their accounts with Aberdeen during the year, with the pace of the exodus slowing slightly since last year, when fears over the Chinese economy spiked. The withdrawals included £800m from its emerging market equity strategies.
The firm said investors started to return to these markets after June, delivering a small inflow in the final quarter.
“That’s slowed down a bit as a result of the US election and people are slightly more nervous,” said Mr Gilbert. “But you could say that it has levelled out.”
Aberdeen flagged that outflows will continue overall in the coming months, when a pair of customers are set to withdraw two large blocks of money.
Shareholders will receive a dividend of 19.5p per share for the year, the same as last year despite the drop in earnings. The payment will cost the group £275.4m, or more than its statutory pre-tax profits of £221.9m for the year.
To address its lower profits, Aberdeen has cut £50m from its annual costs so far and intends to slash £70m by March. Redundancies cost the firm £13m during the year.
Aberdeen said its fees, which are mostly paid by large institutional investors such as pensions, fell slightly to 0.336pc over the year as clients left its more expensive equities and emerging market debt strategies in favour of money market investments.
Mr Gilbert said he supported the recent push for more transparency in fund management fees, which the Financial Conduct Authority said were leaving retail investors in poor-value deals with an array of annual and deal-related charges. “We would look to go to a single fee eventually. We just need to look at the detail,” he said.

Got it started with a new fuel pump and got it on the road, have driven it about 2,000 miles and currently have it parked outside as there is no insurance on it.

Since the onset of the full-scale invasion by the Russian Federation, Ukraine has acquired a fairly substantial and diverse arsenal of armaments and technology from Western allies – ranging from portable anti-tank missile systems to modern, highly effective air defense systems. Soon, Ukraine’s airspace will be defended by the fourth-generation F-16 fighter jets. The rapid acquisition and effective utilization of Western weaponry by the Ukrainian Defense Forces align with the view that, de facto, Ukraine is already a member of the North Atlantic Alliance, despite the ongoing situation of legal ambiguity. In this series of articles, we will aim to highlight the most effective types of weaponry utilized by Ukrainians on the battlefield, commencing with the legendary anti-tank missile system, Javelin.
The Javelin anti-tank system, alongside the Turkish Bayraktar TB2 drone, can rightfully be deemed symbols of resistance for Ukraine, playing a significant role in the initial phase of the major conflict. The almost mystical belief in the power of these weapons was so profound among Ukrainians that children were even named in their honor. Yet, it’s a fact that, not least due to these anti-tank missile systems, the Ukrainian Armed Forces managed to halt and notably thin out numerous Russian columns in the approaches to Kyiv and in the East last spring.
However, this weaponry was in the possession of the Ukrainian Armed Forces long before the open attack. The first missile launches were tested on Ukrainian firing ranges as early as the spring of 2018, and since then, the Ukrainian government’s procurement of these systems has only escalated. In January 2022, anticipating the inevitability of an attack, the United States significantly increased the supply of these anti-tank missile systems (now as military aid) alongside other light infantry armaments. This distribution was explained by Washington’s caution, likely driven by a mistaken assessment of the «fall of Kyiv within 3 days» and the corresponding expectations of a situation devolving into a partisan war.
Regardless, according to sources, on the eve of the invasion, Ukraine possessed 150 launching units with a stockpile of 1200 missiles, which, at 100% effectiveness, would be sufficient to destroy nearly all the armored vehicles of First Russian tank army. However, this elite Russian division indeed faced severe losses just outside Kyiv in the first 19 days of the invasion, losing 131 tanks and over 400 personnel.
Everything You Need to Know About Javelin
FGM-148 Javelin is a third-generation American anti-tank complex built on the principle of «fire-and-forget» – post-launch, utilizing an infrared seeker head (IRSH), the missile autonomously corrects its flight path and strikes the target in the selected attack mode (from above or straight on). This is a key advantage and feature of this anti-tank guided missile system, significantly reducing risks for the operator without compromising effectiveness in targeting. The total weight of the complex with the missile is 22.3 kg, ensuring sufficient mobility for a two-person anti-tank crew.
The missile itself, as mentioned, features independent guidance and carries a tandem shaped charge: the first charge neutralizes dynamic defenses to clear the way for the main charge. This ensures penetration of defenses equivalent to 600-800 mm of homogeneous armor. This is adequate for disabling any tank currently in the occupiers’ arsenal (even the pride of the Russian tank industry, the T-90M Proryv), particularly in the top-down attack mode where the tank’s armor is weakest.
The effective firing range is 2.5 km. At this distance, in the absence of countermeasure interference with the seeker head, the probability of hitting the target is quite high – 94%. The missile can travel over 4 km, but its effectiveness significantly decreases in such cases.
Another advantage of the «darts» is the «soft launch» system, allowing firing from enclosed spaces, enabling the targeting of enemy vehicles in urban combat conditions.
Of course, Javelin is not a miraculous weapon, and under conditions of low thermal contrast of the target or when seeking to blind the IRSH (using thermal blankets on armored vehicles, deploying aerosol smoke grenades, etc.), its effectiveness diminishes. Nevertheless, according to the assessment of Ukrainian military officials, the system has proven itself well on the battlefield. There are notable cases where a Javelin airborne operator managed to destroy 8 enemy armored units in a single battle, including 5 tanks.
Ukrainian «Darts»: High Effectiveness of Anti-Tank Weapons
The high effectiveness of this weaponry is evidenced by the fact that the missiles and launcher units of this system are included in nearly every subsequent package of US military aid (including the latest one). The Ukrainian side’s demands are undoubtedly considered in the formation of these packages. Another telling figure is the provision of over 8,500 of these anti-tank guided missile systems to Ukrainian military within just the first year of the full-scale war. To grasp the scale: in 2024, the US plans to reach a production level of 3960 missiles and 492 launchers per year.
However, it’s not just the Javelin. Before and during the full-scale war, Ukraine received a range of diverse anti-tank systems from allies, including American TOW-4, Swedish RBS 56 BILL (which, in principle, resembles the Javelin but lags behind in targeting technology and mobility), AT-4 and Carl Gustaf, British NLAW, German Matador, and many others. This allowed anti-tank units to be equipped with modern and effective weaponry, far surpassing the capabilities of outdated Soviet systems. But Ukraine also had its own solutions to counter the Russian armed might. Specifically, the Stugna-P system, produced by the LUCH Design Bureau since 2011, brilliantly proved itself in both the early and later phases of the war.
Despite Stugna being a second-generation anti-tank guided missile system due to its relatively outdated laser beam guidance technology, its effectiveness is no less than its American counterparts. The striking range of the domestic system exceeds 5 km during the day and up to 3 km at night, and its operators are secured through the application of a remote control panel located 50 meters away from the launcher. The guided missile of the system can be equipped with tandem cumulative, fragmentation-explosive, or thermobaric warheads. Its armor penetration reaches a similar 800mm of homogeneous armor with dynamic defense as Javelin. Furthermore, the system can engage low-flying targets, proven by the downing of at least two Russian attack helicopters Ka-52 in Kharkiv region in spring 2022. Stugna played a significant role in deterring Russian columns at the onset of the invasion. For instance, on March 12, fighters from the 112th Troop Brigade burned five units of Russian equipment, including two tanks, using the Ukrainian ATGM during a battle near the village of Skybyn (Kyiv Oblast).
But the «darts» are not the only weapons shaping victory. In the next piece, we will discuss Ukraine’s ‘armored fist’ – tanks and other armored vehicles provided by Western partners.

Letters to the Editor, Wednesday, Sept. 8
Upset by Trump booth at Apple Festival
To the Editor: I was appalled that the Apple Festival in Hendersonville allowed a Trump booth to be set up beside all the other arts and crafts booths in these fraught political times. It was a rotten apple touting the Big Lie.
John P. McAfee, Hendersonville
Deserve better than Cawthorn
To the Editor: The conduct and rhetoric of Congressman Cawthorn is an embarrassment to all of his constituency, whether they realize it or not. It is not bad enough that he took a page out of his predecessor’s playbook and pledged allegiance not to his district or even his constitution, but he has chosen to be the servant of the former president.
Congress was not intended to play the part of patsy to the executive branch, never mind a citizen; it was intended to be a check on the power of the President and the Judiciary. Now he is promising “bloodshed” for an imagined offense that his leader has dreamed up. That is not just a dereliction of duty but just plain dangerous.
That kind of leadership will spell the end to our country and way of life. Put away your pride and please do the right thing next year and vote for someone else – Republican or Democrat. We deserve better than this freshman hack.
Neil Doyle, Hendersonville
About who we are as Americans
To the Editor: "Bloodshed is coming." Madison Cawthorn said those remarks just days ago if folks don't recognize that Trump won. This kid is a downright traitor to America even if you support some of his policy ideas.
This isn't about immigration or abortion rights, it's about who we are as Americans. On Jan. 6 folks thought it was OK to sieze our Capitol and stage a coup attempt. It is not OK to try and take over our government because it doesn't follow your ideals. It's called voting and Biden won, fair and square.
The people who stormed our governments are traitors, plain and simple. Think Benedict Arnold. And people who support and incite these traitors will go down in infamy if history does its job. And hopefully, to jail.
Cathy Shields, Flat Rock
Don't tolerate threats to democracy
To the Editor: How disgusted I was to hear that Madison Cawthorn made national news again promoting his lies along with his added threat of bloodshed over future elections.
Speaking at a GOP event, he repeated the big lies that elections are "rigged" and "stolen" which will lead to "bloodshed." Cawthorn said, "And I will tell you, as much as I am willing to defend our liberty at all costs, there's nothing I would dread more than having to pick up arms against a fellow American".
Earth to Trump and Cawthorn supporters - even former Attorney General William Barr (who was appointed by Trump) acknowledged that there was no evidence of voter fraud, as was also determined by multiple judges in every such suit filed nationwide by Trump.
We can no longer tolerate threats to our democracy and human life perpetrated by those defending their lies. Cawthorn, and others supporting these lies must be removed from Congress.
Sally MacMillan, Arden

A big challenge of citizen science is to develop methods to compare data coming from different sources and often of varying quality. This is an issue close to the heart of the University of Aveiro.
The Flemish Citizen Science Knowledge Centre, Scivil, has recently joined CitiMeasure and is hoping to help the project bring citizen science to as many organisations as possible.
To ensure citizen science informs the local political agenda, organisations like The Green Land work as moderators and facilitators.
A Research Fellow for the University of West England, Sophie Laggan, says citizen science is a way to listen to the most vulnerable and ensure a just transition for all.
Citizen science might be still flying under the radar, but there are signs that its impact can go even further than changing behaviours and influencing policies. What happens when it makes its debut in court?

While male dolphins are known to use physical contact such as gentle petting to connect with strongly bonded allies, new findings published in Current Biology today, show they rely on less time-demanding vocal exchanges to remain connected with weaker allies.
The scientists, with colleagues from an international suite of universities, used nine years of acoustic and behavioural data from a dolphin population in Shark Bay, Western Australia, to assess how male dolphins reinforced and maintained their valuable alliances.
Lead author Emma Chereskin, from Bristol’s School of Biological Sciences, said: “Many animals, including humans, use tactile contact, touch, to strengthen and reaffirm important relationships. But as the number of close social relationships increases, so too do the demands on the time and space available for relationship maintenance through physical contact. Male bottlenose dolphins form strategic, multi-level alliances, and we wanted to know how they maintained multiple alliance relationships in large groups.”
By following groups of affiliated males, and documenting their physical and acoustic behaviour, the research team was able identify the different ways that these males bonded with each other.
Senior author Dr Stephanie King, also from Bristol, said: “We found that within the core dolphin alliances, strongly bonded allies engaged in more affiliative contact behaviour, such as petting and rubbing, while weakly bonded allies engaged in more whistle exchanges. This illustrates that these weaker but still key social relationships can be maintained with vocal exchanges.”
In the social bonding hypothesis, Robin Dunbar posited that vocalisations and language evolved as a form of ‘vocal grooming’ to replace physical grooming, as increasingly large group sizes placed impossible demands on the time available for physical contact behaviours. However, tests of this hypothesis in non-human primates suggest that vocal exchanges occur between more strongly bonded individuals that engage in higher grooming rates, and thus do not provide evidence for replacement of physical bonding.
“Our findings provide new evidence that vocal exchanges can serve a bonding function” Chereskin said, “but more importantly, and in line with the social bonding hypothesis, that vocal exchanges can function as a replacement of physical bonding, allowing allied male dolphins to ‘bond-at-a-distance’. This evidence in support of the social bonding hypothesis outside of the primate lineage raises exciting new questions on the origins and evolution of language across taxa.”
The study was funded by The Branco Weiss Fellowship — Society in Science and the National Geographic Society.

Kait and Kate join Mike on the show to discuss comic book and manga adaptations of Young-Adult prose books. What’s good? What’s not so good? Why read these adaptations?
Tag: harry potter
This week’s show is the annual hangout episode where some of the people of IRCB reflect back on the last year of the show. Mike is joined by Tia, Nick, Paul, and Kait to discuss everything about the last year, but also Harry Potter houses, astrological signs, love for our fans, the future of the zine, C2E2, and how much we enjoy each other. It’s a big ol’ love fest.


Until lockdown arrived, the idea of versatile footwear seemed just a few slippery steps away from a trolley dash through Millets. Practical? Certainly. Efficient? Yes. Covetable? Highly unlikely. Versatility telegraphed compromise; a greige no man’s land for the inherently style-challenged. Now, of course, it’s a very different world. This flexibility speaks to a more modern sartorial etiquette and a much blurrier approach to both work and downtime. Casual still matters but so does the joy of dressing up. In fashion, as in life, the old rules no longer apply.
Way ahead of the curve regarding the virtues of not only versatile men’s footwear (of the superbly contemporary variety) but also the rise and rise of design capable of satisfying the newfound pleasures of working from home is British brand Mulo. A quietly emerging talent of the shoe scene since 2012, it was founded by Tobias Cox – a former management consultant with an obsession for the minutiae of iconic product design – and rooted in a singular mission: to elevate the humble jute and canvas espadrille into smart-casual footwear (the reimagined version resembles a grown-up skate shoe) that could outlast the summer and genuinely service almost any occasion. To nail that upgrade, the original styles are all based on a traditional Oxford shoe last – the mould upon which the archetypal formal shoe is constructed.
Ever since, it’s been respectfully reinventing classic styles and silhouettes – from loafers to the desert boot – for men who want to blend business with leisure and exchange the awkwardness of being slavishly on-trend for a stealthier sense of cool. During the pandemic, Mulo truly came of age – picking up a truckload of devotees addicted to the craftsmanship (everything is handmade in Portugal, with most styles crafted via a 100-step process) and a pleasingly minimalist luxe vibe that made them as viable for the daily Covidconstitutional – when life really became a catwalk – as a board meeting.
Its latest reboot focuses on making good on what’s arguably the ultimate object of domesticity-based derision: the slipper. How so? Partly via soles and footbeds sturdy enough to warrant the mantle of “house shoe”. Partly by wrapping those semi-formal silhouettes in suede, corduroy (big news this winter – as evidenced by Daniel Craig’s 007 No Time To Die swan song in Massimo Alba’s corduroy “Sloop” suit) and another beautiful heritage fabric, Donegal tweed. All – and this is where they really get down to business – are tricked out in natural shearling of such seductive sensory magnitude they’re basically footwear’s answer to YouTube’s biggest hit of the last decade: ASMR (Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response) videos – bizarre slices of media that include watching someone whispering into a camera or crinkling wrappers.
For those really wanting to show up, check out Mulo’s brand new all-singing, all-dancing, sheepskin slipper boots – a model lavished with the extra at-home extravagance of “ankle collars”, no less. Essentially dual-purpose cocoons for the feet, made for padding around at home or a quick dash to the shop for provisions, slippers really don’t get any bigger or better than this.

I had a small leak from the connections to my flojet pump, so I removed it and put vaseline on the O-rings to try and seal the leak. I have now reinstalled the pump and although I have a 12v supply to the pump it will not now work. I assume that the pressure switch is not working and I believe it is part of the pump. Is there some technique to reset the pressure switch? Would pressurising the system with a Waterline have any effect or do I just accept that I need a new pump?

Robbie Rotten’s ‘We Are Number One’ was just named ‘Meme of the Year’
A special message from the no. 1 villain himself.
The Icelandic kids’ show LazyTown, which originally ran from 2004-2007, has long been part of meme culture. For nearly a decade, denizens of 4chan have lusted after the show’s young, pink-haired protagonist, Stephanie. But in 2016, the villain Robbie Rotten stole the show. His theme song, “We Are Number One,” was named Meme of the Year on Reddit’s dank memes subreddit.
Stefán Karl Stefánsson, the actor who plays Robbie Rotten, celebrated by posting a new video of “We Are Number One,” performed with his former castmates and LazyTown’s original composer.
Why, after all these years, did “We Are Number One” land in the meme spotlight, with entries like this:
And why was infamous YouTube remix artist and “soundclowner” SilvaGunner suddenly going off with LazyTown remixes?
It seems Robbie Rotten memes took off in October, when Stefan Karl announced he was having an operation for cancer, and told Reddit about his GoFundMe fundraiser for recovery and related expenses. The story set off a wave of LazyTown nostalgia in r/DankMemes, and ‘We Are Number One’ was big throughout the final months of the year.
What’s more, meme fans helped Stefan Karl’s fundraiser exceed its goal, so r/dankmemes posters felt especially attached to him. After November, memes like Harambe and Pepe had been in voters’ faces all year, so it’s understandable that they’d turn to the feel-good villain to represent the best of their subreddit.
A lot of voters didn’t like the result, arguing that Harambe’s cultural relevance trumps Robbie’s late surge and heartwarming story, and that he’s not a “real meme.”
Too bad. Whether they like it or not, Robbie is number one! This is going down in history.

In terms of ball games, topspin is defined as spin about a horizontal axis perpendicular to the direction of travel, where the top surface of the ball is moving forward with the spin. Under the Magnus effect, topspin produces a downward swerve of a moving ball, greater than would be produced by gravity alone, and backspin has the opposite effect. Likewise side-spin causes swerve to either side as seen during some baseball pitches, e.g. leg break.
The overall behaviour is similar to that around an airfoil (see lift force) with a circulation which is generated by the mechanical rotation, rather than by airfoil action.
It is named for Gustav Magnus, the German physicist who investigated it. The force on a rotating cylinder is known as Kutta-Joukowski lift, after Martin Wilhelm Kutta and Nikolai Zhukovsky (or Joukowski) who first analyzed the effect.
This is a great share. I've known that this existed in some fashion but never knew what to call it. It makes me think of baseball and how a normal fastball pitch is so different from a knuckle ball. And to think it has non-sport applications is just amazing.


The Story Behind Gay Singer Steve Grand's "All-American Boy"
After the enormously positive reception to his first music video, "All-American Boy," singer Steve Grand tells BuzzFeed about the difficult decision of coming out as nothing but himself.
Steve Grand has barely slept in days. He hasn't showered. He's lost weight. His family is worried that he isn't getting enough to eat. It's the 4th of July, and two days ago, the 23-year-old singer and Chicago native released his first music video, an independently produced pop-country love song, "All-American Boy," about one gay man's unrequited love for a straight man.
The story, based on Grand's own experiences as an out gay man, was relatively innocent. But as the video uploaded to YouTube, he tells BuzzFeed, he obsessed over how the world — especially his church, where he works as a wedding and funeral singer — might respond to its same-sex content. "I had no idea what people were gonna think," Grand says. "I had no idea how people were gonna respond. I couldn't sleep."
The video wasn't necessarily Grand's coming out. He'd done that officially years earlier, but doing this was a terrifying act of vulnerability. "It's me coming out as totally myself and just standing naked before the world," he says.
Despite the risk and fear, Grand says it was something he felt compelled to do. "I think that we're at a time now where there's no room to be anything but totally honest and totally who you are," he says. "I decided this is who I'm gonna be to the world. Just my true, raw self. I'm putting it all out there."
Within hours, the video racked up tens of thousands of views and hundreds of supportive comments from both gay and straight viewers who identified with the singer's heartache. "I'm still in awe," says Grand. "I'm not a crier, but the comments have been so overwhelmingly positive. They're thanking me for telling my story because they feel like it's a story that hasn't been told before. And that's all I could ever hope for."
Grand started working on music when he was just 12 years old as a way to cope with his own struggles. The singer says he fell for a male counselor who took a particular interest in him at camp when he was 13, and was heartbroken when they eventually separated. "That's actually what made me realize I was gay," he says. "That deep longing, that achy feel, for someone that's just out of reach, someone that you'll never have. I remember driving away from camp after I said good-bye, and I felt the deepest ache of my life. I felt that was the end of my childhood."
Then, when his parents discovered an incriminating AOL instant message, he was sent to ex-gay therapy to talk to counselors about his sexuality. "That was pretty much my high school experience," he says. "My parents became really obsessive about making sure I didn't go out because they were so scared of me acting out on my unwanted same-sex attraction, as it was referred to."
So he turned to music. "I was quite eccentric," he says. "And that eccentricity comes from being broken, in the ways that we're all broken."
That's why the release of "All-American Boy," with its foregrounded same-sex details, was an important risk for Grand. "I needed to do something to share the ache and share the pain that I've felt for most of my life," he says. "This is the story I wanted to tell. This is who I want to be. I owe that. I owe that to all the people who have felt this."
Grand rushed to have the video produced in just a couple of months, pulling together friends and acquaintances to lend a hand with the production when money fell short. "I sacrificed a lot of things, financially, to make it happen," he says, "but this is what I had to do. This is all I could have done." Grand's friends and advisers suggested masking gender pronouns to appeal to a wider audience, but he insisted on staying true to his own story. "I'm sending a message to people," he says. "The power of music transcends. The gender pronouns are just a little side part."
"My sexuality hasn't been a secret for a long time," he says. "It's something that's not really talked about in my family, so this is kinda like a big move. Me and my mother have shed a lot of tears over it. It's one thing to say 'I'm gay,' but to see it and to see that kiss and to see it all up on screen, it's something the world is gonna see."
But his family and friends have been overwhelmingly supportive throughout the process of making his video. "[My mother's] proud of me, and she's been looking at the comments and she's so touched and she's so moved," he says. "She's come such a long way." He's still waiting to see how his church, where he sings, will respond. "I'm not sure what's gonna happen now that this is all out in the open. That was just another sacrifice I had to make because that was a big chunk of my income."
Whatever the outcome, he's committed to this path. "I couldn't live with myself if I wasn't true and honest," he says. "That's what people deserve. People don't deserve a lie. We have a whole new generation that's counting on us to be brave and to not be afraid of pigeonholing ourselves. People need to be brave for the world to change. If it puts me in a hole, I'll accept that. But I did what I needed to do."
Grand says that the story of "All-American Boy" is ultimately meant to appeal to everybody. "It really is a human story," he says. "It's a universal story of longing. An 'all-American boy,' it doesn't mean 'American,' it doesn't mean 'boy,' it just means that person that you love, and that you idealize, and that person you ache for. There are guys who sing along to Taylor Swift songs, and I don't understand why they can't sing along to my song. To me, there's really no difference. It's a story about longing."
"All-American Boy" has been viewed over a half million times in less than a week, and it has caught the attention of gay music icons like Lance Bass, who was among the first to tweet the video. Grand has made a meager profit off the attention thus far, but says he's happy to scrape by if it means he's creating something that has an effect on people. "I've scrubbed toilets, I've cleaned up puke and shit off the floor. I worked at a gay bar and had my ass grabbed one too many times and my nipples squeezed," he laughs. "[But] all that matters to me is that I'm putting out real art into the world."
Grand has no concrete plans for what's next, though he's started aligning himself with friends and advisers who can help plan his next artistic endeavor. Whatever it is, it won't necessarily be country music, but more likely pop-rock. "To be honest, I wasn't trying to write a country song," he says. "At the end of the day, people can call it what they want. I'm just gonna keep being honest in my songwriting."
"All I know is that I've passed the point of no return," he said. "There's no going back now."

The SUV driver who rammed into an Eagan Starbucks Monday night and seriously hurt two patrons was drunk at the time, authorities said Tuesday.
Ihar Daniliuk, 44, of Eagan, was jailed early Tuesday on suspicion of felony criminal vehicular operation in connection with the crash shortly after 9 p.m. at the coffee shop in the 1400 block of Central Park Commons Drive. He has yet to be charged.
Stanton M. Baldwin, 29, of West St. Paul, and Macy L. Olson, 30, of Eagan, were being treated at Regions Hospital in St. Paul and remained in serious condition late Tuesday morning.
Officers spoke with Daniliuk at the scene and “believed him to be under the influence” of alcohol, police said in a statement Tuesday.
The SUV went over a curb, through the patio and punched out a window on the south side of the building.
Police say the building did not show any structural damage, and the business should reopen Wednesday.
