AFRICA/EGYPT - The Bishops express their appreciation for the new Constitution
Cairo (Agenzia Fides) - The new Egyptian Constitution, which was approved with a majority of 98 % of the vote in the referendum held on 14 and 15 January, was greeted with satisfaction by the Coptic Catholic Bishops .
According to a report by Aid to the Church in Need sent to Fides Agency, based on interviews with Bishops Kyrillos William Samaan, Coptic Catholic Bishop of Assiut, Antonios Aziz Mina, Bishop of Guizeh ( Giza ) and Joannes Zakaria, Bishop of Luxor, the Bishops expressed their appreciation for the fact that the new Constitution guarantees the fundamental rights of all Egyptians, regardless of race, religion, gender and age.
In particular, it emphasizes that the Constitution, unlike that of 2012, provides rights for women, children and the disabled. The Bishops also confirmed that the rights of Christians were well represented in the new Constitution.
Bishops Samaan and Zakaria underline that the Constitution requires Parliament to rapidly draft a new law that regulates the building of new churches, which until now has been very slow,.
The Preamble of the Constitution states that the Egyptian people "greets the Virgin Mary and her Infant protecting them during their pilgrimage in Egypt, expressing respect and appreciation for the Christian religion".
Article 50 recognizes the Egyptian civilization in its various components, making reference to Ancient Egyptians, Coptic and Islamic, as a "national and human wealth that the State is committed to preserve and maintain". (L.M.) (Agenzia Fides 22/01/2014)

There are a number of significant issues and challenges facing members but there is also an appetite amongst farmers to improve quality and increase yield. A good starting point to see these opportunities realized is the commitment from supply chain partners, such as, retailers, processors, large industry actors who see the need for an inclusive supply chain where all actors are profitable, as it would strengthen and make the sector more responsible and transparent.
Over the years volatility in cocoa prices paid to farmers for their produce has caused a lot of uncertainty in the life of farmers and also affects the industry at large. Majority of our members who are the smallholders, don’t make profit for the crop and some see their income even more squeezed by some partners in the supply chain. Market volatility is also a serious problem for them as farm gate prices are being influence by the drop of global price.
The smallholder cocoa farmers produce the majority of cocoa beans, but are not able to benefit from their hard work because they are not organized. They mostly live and work in the hinterlands, remote and rural parts of cocoa growing regions, which makes it difficult to reach them. Farmers recognize the opportunities for the wider industry as demand for cocoa beans keep rising, therefore farmers are keen to capitalized on this to look for better options to sell their crop.

Although the Berlin Wall fell on November 9, 1989, marking the beginning of the end of communism in Central and Eastern Europe, it took a further 11 months for German reunification to formally take place.
On October 3, 1990, Eastern Germany, or the German Democratic Republic (GDR), ceased to exist, and five newly created states on its former territory joined the Federal Republic of Germany (West Germany).
East and West Berlin were reunited and became a full-fledged city-state within Germany. Berlin later became the capital of united Germany.

Various antimicrobial solutions have been tested as additives for raw milk traditional cheeses, among which Nigella sativa cold pressed seed oil (NSSO) is recognized for its positive effect on the microbial quality of such products. The overall effect on the quality of enriched cheeses during ripening is still under extensive investigation. Three batches of traditional raw milk brined cheese were included in the current experiment: control cheese without Nigella sativa seed oil (NSSO) and cheese samples enriched with 0.2 and 1% w/w NSSO. Experimental cheese samples were analyzed in duplicates for total nitrogen content (TN), at 0, 14, 28 and 42 days of ripening, while single determinations of total nitrogen (WSN) and free amino acids (FAA) were performed at 14, 28 and 42 ripening days. The TN content revealed similar values for control cheeses and NSSO cheeses, and no significant differences were noticed within the three treatment groups (p >.05) throughout ripening. WSN values followed a significant rising shift in all cheeses during ripening, yet computing data obtained for the three considered treatments, despite an obvious higher WSN content of NSSO enriched cheeses, no statistical significance could be associated to this difference. The FAA composition of the experimental cheeses, varied quantitatively, by increasing with ripening time, but no qualitative variation was noticed during the follow-up period. The FAA composition of the did not vary significantly within treatments.

Tomatoes, a staple on your favorite pizza, do more than just add flavor to your meal. Beyond their delicious taste, tomatoes boast a powerful compound called lycopene, making them a skin superfood with potential protective effects against sun damage. In this article, we’ll delve into the wonders of lycopene and how incorporating tomatoes into your diet can contribute to healthier and more radiant skin.
Understanding Lycopene: The Skin’s Ally
Lycopene is a potent antioxidant that gives tomatoes their vibrant red color. This compound belongs to the carotenoid family and has been extensively studied for its various health benefits, particularly in promoting skin health. As an antioxidant, lycopene helps neutralize free radicals in the body, which can be generated by exposure to the sun, pollution, and other environmental factors.
Radiant Skin and Sun Protection
One of the standout benefits of lycopene is its potential to protect the skin from sun damage. While it’s not a substitute for sunscreen, incorporating lycopene-rich foods like tomatoes into your diet may provide an additional layer of defense against harmful UV rays. Research suggests that the antioxidant properties of lycopene can help mitigate the oxidative stress caused by sun exposure, reducing the risk of premature aging and promoting a healthier complexion.
Adding Tomatoes to Your Diet for Skin Health
Including tomatoes in your meals can be a delicious way to support your skin from the inside out. Whether as a pizza topping, in a fresh salad, or as part of a pasta sauce, there are numerous ways to enjoy the benefits of lycopene. Additionally, cooking tomatoes can enhance the bioavailability of lycopene, making it easier for the body to absorb and utilize.

A new lawsuit was filed against Battelle Energy Alliance over the Nov. 8, 2011, exposure of 16 Idaho National Laboratory employees to plutonium.
The latest legal complaint was brought by Jodi Stanton, the wife of former INL nuclear operator Ralph Stanton.
Stanton and fellow nuclear operator Brian Simmons were among those exposed and filed a whistle-blower complaint with the U.S. Department of Labor in April 2013 against the INL contractor. It alleges Battelle created an unsafe work environment and then retaliated against them after they raised health and safety concerns.
Another lawsuit, filed in federal court by Stanton and Simmons in August 2013, seeks videotape evidence of the accident, denied by the Department of Energy.
The new lawsuit, filed by Jodi Stanton in federal court Tuesday, alleges many of the same claims in the 2013 complaints, including that both men were exposed to plutonium due to inadequate safety practices.
It also includes claims about possible radioactivity within the Stanton home as a result of the accident. The complaint alleges INL withheld medical information or intentionally provided false information about Stanton’s medical condition following the accident. The lawsuit seeks a jury trial and an undisclosed amount in damages.
Both the Stantons and their attorney, Jack Sheridan, declined to comment on the latest lawsuit.
INL spokeswoman Nicole Stricker issued the following statement on behalf of the contractor: “INL’s general counsel has not yet received this lawsuit and so the company cannot comment on its claims.”
The November 2011 accident happened when INL workers opened a storage container with a plutonium fuel plate wrapped in plastic and tape. When workers tried to remove the wrapping, a plutonium powder spilled out exposing the surrounding workers to the radioactive element.

There are almost 7,000 DACA recipients in Oklahoma. And to some of them, last week's U.S. Supreme Court ruling that upholds the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program came as a surprise.
Amairani Perez Chamu — like many of her friends and fellow DACA recipients — wasn't expecting good news from the Supreme Court . So when she got it, she was ecstatic.
"We’re just so overjoyed and so happy, Perez Chamu said. "When it comes to temporary protections for our undocumented community this is a big win."
The Coordinator for the Hispanic Resource Center at the Tulsa City-County Library says DACA is how she’s able to do basic things like go to school, keep her job and even drive a car. So to keep it around was a huge relief.
Rosa Hernandez, another DACA recipient in Tulsa, says she was also happy for the ruling. But like Perez Chamu, she says there’s much more work to be done.
"We also had to take time to ground ourselves, because this is a small victory in the bigger fight that we have," Hernandez said.
To have the program upheld is an incremental win. But moving forward the two DACA recipients vowed they would continue fighting for a pathway to citizenship for themselves, their peers and other immigrants.

COVID-19 hospitalizations have hit a record low of 8,256 patients this week. This time of year has been the “low-tide” of hospitalizations throughout the pandemic. For the last three years, COVID-19 activity has decreased around late spring/early summer. In 2021, COVID hospitalizations dropped dramatically, but roared back soon after, as the Delta variant emerged. A few weeks later, hospitalizations climbed to 85,785 admissions. Still, the current decline in COVID-19 hospitalizations is a sign that the worst of COVID-19 is likely behind us.

MOSCOW, May 14. /ITAR-TASS/. An online auction to build a new home for central Moscow's famed Tretyakov Gallery will take place on June 6, says the state procurements website.
Bids for the nearly 3 billion-ruble ($84 million) museum complex will be accepted between May 13 and May 30.
A competition to design the building was launched in May last year, with the architectural studio SPEECH declared winner two months later.
The gallery's new location lies between Kadashevskaya Quay and Maly Tolmachevsky Lane, close to the existing building.
SPEECH studio’s project suggests a 4-5-storey building with a total area of 35,100 square meters. It will include about 9,000 square meters of exhibition halls, a conference hall, press centre and cafeteria. The project is due for completion by December 2018.

How does Keto affect metabolism?
In a review of the side effects of keto diets for Health, experts explain that the weight you lose maybe more muscle than fat, but the weight you regain will be more fat than muscle, which ends up lowering your metabolism.
How do I speed up my metabolism on keto?
One of the easiest ways to increase your metabolism is to switch your source of fuel from carbs to fat. Low-carb, high-fat diets like the keto diet turn your body into a fat-burning machine[*]. When you eliminate most carbs from your diet, your body is forced to rely on fat for fuel[*].
Do you gain more weight after Keto?
Majority of Keto dieters do end up gaining weight post Keto due to certain reasons, lack of discipline, lack of mindful eating, no calculations, etc, to name a few. The problem isn’t in the diet or any pattern followed, the problem lies with minimal awareness about what should succeed keto – which is ‘Reverse Dieting’.
Will I gain weight back after Keto?
You’re naturally going to gain a few pounds when you reintroduce them back into your diet because they contain water. The key is to pick healthy, whole carbs that won’t cause gigantic spikes in your blood sugar. The worst thing you can do is go hog wild and start eating donuts and cookies.
Does keto kick start metabolism?
However, on the keto diet one may actually increase their metabolism or maintain it at a steady pace but at a higher rate than what you initially started off with. An individual’s basal metabolic rate or BMR is the amount of calories one burns in a day, regardless of their activity levels.
Why am I gaining weight on keto intermittent fasting?
People who consume too many calories may gain weight, even if they are in a state of ketosis. High fat foods tend to contain many more calories than foods that are high in carbohydrates and proteins. It is, therefore, important that people keep track of the number of calories that they consume.
Can you fix metabolic damage?
Regardless of how much they exercise or how they change their diet, for some, reducing body fat seems impossible. To fix a slowed metabolism or overcome a weight-loss plateau, you likely need to cut back on exercise and eat more instead of less.
Can keto slow your metabolism?
Myth #2: Keto slows down your metabolism
Here’s the thing: any diet that involves restricting your calories can result in a slower metabolism. If you maintain a calorie deficit for 3+ weeks, you’ll have to worry about your metabolism slowing down regardless of whether you’re eating low-carb or not.
Can I have a cheat day on keto?
The bottom line. You should avoid cheat meals and days on the keto diet. Consuming too many carbs can kick your body out of ketosis — and it takes several days to 1 week to get back into it. In the meantime, your weight loss may be disrupted.
Does Low Carb affect metabolism?
“We found that diet had a major impact on metabolism — people consuming the lower-carbohydrate diet in our study burned 250 calories more than those on the high-carb diet. That increase in metabolism could spontaneously cause a 20-pound weight loss over three years without eating any less.
How can I boost up my metabolism?
Here are 9 easy ways to increase your metabolism.
- Eat Plenty of Protein at Every Meal. Eating food can increase your metabolism for a few hours. …
- Drink More Cold Water. …
- Do a High-Intensity Workout. …
- Lift Heavy Things. …
- Stand up More. …
- Drink Green Tea or Oolong Tea. …
- Eat Spicy Foods. …
- Get a Good Night’s Sleep.
How long should you be on keto?
Keene recommends staying on keto for six months max before reintroducing more carbs to your diet.
Can I stay on keto forever?
Ketosis Isn’t Forever.
Then you’ll want to take an occasional ketosis holiday, adding a serving of unprocessed, whole grains to allow your body to chance to work less hard. Staying in ketosis long-term—without breaks— can cause muscle aches, nausea, and fatigue.

Japanese retail sales rose for a ninth straight month in November, data showed on Tuesday, as the lifting of Covid-19 border controls and the government’s domestic travel subsidy helped consumer demand.
Data showed that visitor arrivals to Japan jumped to nearly 1 million in November, the first full month after the country scrapped Covid-19 curbs that effectively halted tourism for more than two years.
A government domestic travel subsidy campaign to help the pandemic-hit tourism industry, which started in mid-October, also encouraged people to spend on travel and travel goods.
Japan income fund, JPMorgan Japan Small Cap Growth & Income (LONJSGI), targets Japan income without compromising on Japanese growth opportunities. This Japan income investing opportunity gives investors access to a diverse and fast growing sector managed by local managers.

From the days of fighting sail
In the early days of the Age of Discovery, the risk of collision on the open sea was zero, even if navigation was not yet fully developed, and instead of sailing to the Spice Islands, one sailed around the world just because one had made a wrong turn.
That didn’t change much when navigation improved, because the number of ships on the seas was not yet as high as it had been steadily increasing since the late 18th century. But if it did come to that, there was only one problem, there was no radio communication, and the chances of someone coming to the rescue were purely coincidental. Communication was by the line of sight only, so if a ship came over the horizon as one was sinking, it was purely by chance. It could even be that this ship was the enemy, who was more intent on sinking or capturing you than coming to your aid.
In the event of two ships approaching each other, there was no need at that time for formal rules of engagement as to who should change course, when, and how. It was more the case that some ships carried lighting at night in the form of the star lantern or a mast lantern to signal their presence, but this was only the case in crowded waters, and the reluctance to display lights at night was due to the desire to avoid giving away the ship’s presence to the enemy or pirates.
Two fighting vessels in collision off a headland in choppy seas, by D. Tandy 1798-1805
Collisions in the harbor or in the Navies anchorages, on the other hand, were much more likely, and the rule was, that whoever is smaller gets out of the way first. The first larger and more frequent collisions did not occur until the first steamers appeared. While a steamer was much more maneuverable than a sailing ship, let alone much smaller than a ship of the line or even an Indiaman, these ships were actually required to clear the way, but unfortunately not many adhered to this rule, which led to accidents.
From the early 19th century onwards various nations introduced “conventions” for the behavior of ships in the event of a possible collision, such as ships sailing before the wind giving way to ships sailing close to the wind, because ships sailing before the wind have greater room for maneuver in choosing the course they can take. These “conventions” were mainly set at the national level, and even then they were not binding but based on what might be called good seamanship. It was recognized that in a situation where each vessel should have some idea of what the other might do, there had to be some form of coherent action to avoid a collision. Ships do not collide with such impunity, and both ship owners and insurance companies would like to see some kind of code that would bring order and predictability to a potential collision situation. Before a uniform set of international rules was developed, there were different practices, conventions, and informal procedures developed by different maritime nations in different parts of the world.
“Wreck of the ‘Scotland’,” Harper’s Weekly Magazine, December 29, 1866
Off the Long Island coast, near Fire Island, the British steamer Scotland bound for Liverpool ran into the smaller vessel Kate Dyer in an evening collision. The Kate Dyer sank in fifteen minutes and Scotland, having saved seven of the sunken ship’s twenty-man crew, tried to make it back to New York Harbor but ran aground in a sinking condition off Sandy Hook, New Jersey.
As a result, there were inconsistencies and even contradictions that led to unintentional collisions. There was also no standardization of ships’ navigation lights for operation in the dark and of navigation marks in the shipping channels, which led to dangerous confusion and ambiguity between ships at risk of collision. With the advent of steam-powered ships in the mid-19th century, the regulations for the navigation of sailing ships had to be supplemented by regulations for the navigation of motor ships. Sailing vessels are limited in their maneuverability in that they cannot sail directly windward or into the eye of the wind and are not readily navigable in calm conditions. In contrast, steamships could maneuver in all 360-degree directions and are maneuverable regardless of wind or calm.
Terrific Collision, between the Steamboats Dean Richmond and C. Vanderbilt near Rondout, on the Hudson River, Sept 19th, 1867 by which Dean Richmond was sunk, and several lives lost, by Currier and Ives 1867
In 1840 Trinity House, the British lighthouse authority, in London drew up a set of regulations which were passed by Parliament in 1846. These Trinity House regulations were incorporated into the Steam Navigation Act, and the Admiralty’s regulations on the lighting of steamships were incorporated into that Act in 1848.
These laws were aimed at steamships, which were coming into more and more use at the time. In the US, Congress included lights for sailing vessels in the regulations for ships in US waters. Ten years later, an Act of Parliament in Britain required colored sidelights for sailing vessels, and fog signals had to be given by steamships with the ship’s whistle and by sailing vessels with the fog horn or bell, while a separate but similar measure was also taken in the United States, although British maritime law was also adopted in what was probably the first attempt to reach international agreement on maritime practice.
French ironclad in collision, by Jean-Antoine-Théodore, Baron Gudin c. 1870
In 1863, a new set of rules was drawn up by the British Board of Trade in consultation with the French, initially aimed at regulating traffic in the English Channel. A year later, these rules were adopted by more than thirty shipping countries in a large-scale attempt to reach an international agreement. In the US they were called ‘Rules to Prevent Collisions at Sea’; this is the first time the term has been used. In the UK they became known as ‘The Rule of the Road’.
Individual countries introduced their own minor changes to the rules, so it was still complicated for navigators to comply with them, but in 1889 the United States convened the first international shipping conference to consider standardization. this came in 1899 but a proper and binding agreement did not come until after the Second World War.
It is chastening to think how many ships were lost at sea prior to the first attempt to force captains to show lights at night. In 1836, a British Royal Commission made recommendations that every steamship should carry lanterns visible in all directions between sunset and sunrise, but it was another two decades before anyone took the issue seriously.
By then 3064 collisions involving British ships were recorded in one year, resulting in the loss of 9 steamships and 270 sailing vessels. It was Captain Evans who finally solved the problem in 1849, by devising a forward-facing white masthead light for steamships within an arc two points abaft the beam on either side, along with the red and green sidelights on port and starboard sides, showing from right ahead to two points abaft the beam. Sailing vessels, however, would need only to carry a single white light until 1858, when both red and green sidelights were finally made mandatory for these vessels, too.
Pair of Antique Tin Port and Starboard Ship Lights, 19th Century
The first international Maritime Conference in 1889 finally saw the USA and other nations recognize the importance of navigational lights on ships to be carried aboard ships, and it set detailed criteria based on the size and type of vessel. The purpose of the lights is to allow other vessels to determine both the length and the heading of travel of the ship so that in darkness they can avoid the vessel in its entirety, and take evasive action should the lights indicate. The standard system is green lights on the starboard (right) side, red on the port (left) side, and white on the aft (back) and bow (front). The lights need to be fully visible head-on and 22,5 degrees abaft the beam.
The Introduction of effective navigation lights undoubtedly prevented many unnecessary collisions at sea, especially in channels with heavy shipping leading to fewer sinkings and consequent loss of life.

Jimmy Chamberlin Back On The Road With The Pumpkins
Corgan told USA Today that he contacted Chamberlin after a previous arrangement with another drummer didn’t work out.
“You can’t just grab somebody and say, ‘Play drums on this Smashing Pumpkins song,’” he says. “Jimmy’s drum parts are so incredibly technical and nuanced that it’s a very rare class of people that can step in and play.”
Chamberlin agreed to help out but notes that he hasn’t made any plans with the band beyond the co-bill tour.
“He asked if there was any way I’d consider coming back for the tour,” Chamberlin told USA Today. “It’s a great opportunity not only to celebrate the music, but to celebrate the friendship and the legacy.”
The drummer adds that his priority right now is LiveOne, the tech company he runs in Chicago.
Chamberlin left the Pumpkins in 2009. He released a statement at the time saying, “I can no longer commit all of my energy into something that I don’t fully possess. I won’t pretend I’m into something I’m not. I won’t do it to myself, you the fan, or my former partner. I can’t just, ‘Cash the check’ so to speak. Music is my life. It is sacred. It deserves the highest commitment at every level and the Pumpkins are certainly no different.”
The drummer’s departure left Corgan as the only original member in the band’s lineup. Chamberlin had been fired in 1996 after he was arrested for heroin possession, but rejoined the group in 1999. Following the band’s breakup in 2000, Corgan and Chamberlin reunited as the Smashing Pumpkins with a handful of new musicians in 2007.
The co-bill tour with Marilyn Manson kicks off July 7 in Concord, Calif., and runs through Aug. 9 in Nashville.

May 8th, 2020 – “Little Joe” hand-crafted 12″ speaker cabinet – soon available!
Named after the first launch vehicle in the Apollo space program, a new 12″ speaker cabinet will soon be launched by Cosmic Ampworks. It is primarily intended for use with our Lunar Module 5E3 heads, so the widths of the cabinets are matching. It will also be available separately. Portability and sturdiness have been prioritized during its development. Sonically, when fitted with a Celestion Seventy 80 speaker, the “Little Joe” seems to have a sound somewhat reminiscent of 1960s Valco amps. Could that be ascribed to the relatively light pinewood that is employed? Contrary to depicted example, finished cabinets will be fitted with corner protectors by default. Keep an eye on this page for prices and specifications!
Vintage narrow-panel looks characterize the “Atlas” cabinet, which is now available in our webshop for customers in the Netherlands. This speaker cabinet is hand-built from glued solid pine wood, protected by three layers of transparent lacquer. Chrome/nickel plated corner protectors, metal amp glides/legs, a leatherette carrying handle and switchcraft speaker jack complete the design. The cabinet is optionally equipped with a a 15-inch Eminence Legend 1518 speaker, but can also be supplied without. A recipe for huge tweed tone!

Organic formulation. Alkenes
Organic Formulation Theory: Alkenes
Hydrocarbons with double bonds, Olefins or Alkenes.
They are hydrocarbons having one or more double bonds between the carbon atoms. The general formula with a single double bond is CnH2n.
Alkenes with one double bond.
They are named according to the following rules:
- The longest chain containing the double bond is chosen and the ane end is replaced by ene.
- The chain is numbered from the double bond closest to the end. This locator is the smallest of the two numbers that correspond to the two carbon atoms connected by the double bond.
- The position of the double bond or unsaturated is indicated by the corresponding locator standing in front of the name.
Watch the video:
- If there are radicals, it is taken as the longest backbone of the double bond-containing chain. The numbering is performed such as the carbon atom with double bond corresponds the lowest possible locator. The radicals are named like alkanes.
Alkenes with several double bonds.
- When a hydrocarbon contains more than one double bond we used the following endings to name them: -diene, -triene, etc., instead of the termination ene. The chain is numbered assigning double bond carbons with lower locators that can be possible.
- If the compound contains radicals, these are named as alkanes, choosing as the hydrocarbon backbone the one that contains the largest number of double bonds, though it is not the longest one.
Univalent radical derived from alkenes linear.
They are obtained from alkenes by lossing of a hydrogen atom from a terminal carbon. In the numbering of the radical, the free valence carbon (by lossing of the hydrogen atom) receives the number 1. They are namee prefixing the corresponding number prefix to completion enyl.
You can download the App BioProfe READER to practice this theory with self-corrected exercises.

This post was written before I.V’s changes were revealed, and now that I’ve saw those, I’m a lot more optimistic with the direction YIIK is going towards. Many of my thoughts about this version of the game remains the same, but they might change with the newer update when that comes out. I plan on playing through the new update and making another blog post about it (maybe even a video essay idk). Anyway, onto the original post.
Oh god where to start.
First of all, why a blog post for this? Well the answer is quite simple, I was going to make this part of the twitter thread, but it was running up 10+ tweets. Then I remembered that I had a website, so I decided if I have a game in the media thread and it’s taking way too long to type out in a tweet, I’ll post a blog entry here instead. It would, at the very least, provide more uses for this blog.
And boy, what a game to start with, YIIK.
Gonna start out with saying that yeah, this game sucks ass lmao.
A majority of my problems with the game can be compressed down into: It’s tedious as hell. UI takes half a second to pop up, saving requires 3 prompts, the entirety of the mind dungeon, the microgames taking up to 30 seconds at it’s worst. It might not be much when you’re playing in short bursts, but hell extend that shit to an hour and you start getting Death by a Thousands cuts for how much this game gets bogged down.
Seriously, I had my finger pressed on the Fast Forward button in every fight I could, and it made fights bearable. For the couple times my controller glitched out and I couldn’t use the bumpers, fights became bogged down by overly long attack animations, overly long UI animations, textboxes lasting for way too long, the fact that the damage numbers do a thing where they add up from 5 hits instead of just being a single hit, even for things where it should be just a single hit. It just get’s to a point where it’s boring as hell.
There’s one point in the game where there was a month before an important event, and this is the only time in the game where there was a time mechanic. Not only could I not do one sidequest because it required me to be in a nighttime setting that’s only possible during the story, but you could exhaust everything to do and still have a couple weeks left. So for like 5-10 minutes, I was going into the mind dungeon and exiting, occasionally seeing a cutscene, before going back into the mind dungeon and out again.
Obviously, I could talk more and more about how the writing felt like the writer make the game novelization first before realizing they had to compress it down into a game script, or how Alex is an irredeemable asshole that doesn’t grow, but what I want to talk about more was the ending because holy shit it was fucking hilarious.
Ok, so, Alex fucked up and got reality destroyed, sulked for a bit, then left for the soul space. After a 5 minute black screen monologue (I was playing this with the reduced monologue edit), I flew for about another minute before Panda went “yeah I’m not real lmao” and when Alex was screaming for Panda I exploded with laughter because I could not take that shit seriously. Then a couple more minutes of flying later and I see a bunch of other Alexs and laughed when there was an Alex that looked like his voice actor, Chris Niosi, I had to check and I think I’m right, idk.
Anyway after a couple more things, Alex YIIK does a fourth wall breaking moment, recruiting me to destroy the proto Alex and gets all of my friends in on this too.
Ok, so I actually did name these after my friends and seeing them show up as Alex’s friends in JRPG outfits made me laugh even harder.
Anyway, seeing them fight and there being two Alexs was also very funny too, I was just a giggling mess while fighting the flaws of Alex.
There was a couple things I actually did like about YIIK, but it was mostly the music. It was probably one of the most consistently good things about this game. A lot of it sounded really good and as people have pointed out, Alex’s theme tells a better story than the actual game itself.
Like there was a couple bad tracks, but most of it was either solid or really good. Especially the music added in the 1.25 update.
Yeah, last year the game released the first part of it’s overhaul update, boasting faster combat, more music, story teases, and replacing the Golden Alpaca with something better.
This update was the reason why I was playing YIIK in the first place, I would’ve been fine with the couple 2 hour long videos about YIIK (I think I’ve seen 3 of them), but the thing was, no one actually bothered to make a video on the new update, which is understandable, there wasn’t really much added and all of the things you can make fun of it for were still in there, but you can tell that the dev team seemed to be fixing up the game a bit.
I did buy this game day 1 because I was suckered into it and well, I’ve experienced both versions of YIIK, and with that second update having a trailer, I think I’ll be on this YIIK train one last time. But, now’s not the time for not talking about YIIK, I have YIIK to talk about.
The reason I brought up that I bought this day 1 is that I also have experience of the first version of YIIK, and what I can say is that they have improved the game, not enough that I would recommend it to anyone, but at least enough for me to beat it for the first time.
They did (mostly) fix things that bog down the game, like making combat faster with the basic attacks being replaced with simpler, faster versions (which you can reenable them to be the basic attack, but the old basic attacks actually got moved to being a skill, which is more appropriate). They made the Mind Dungeon a bit less tedious, instead of doing two prompts for the door, now there’s one (but there’s still the problem of having to do it in a physical space in the first place instead of a menu). There’s the option for a reduced monologue edit, which does cutit down a bit, but there still is a FUCKTON of monologue, some scenes feel unedited and conversations were unchanged, so everyone still talks way too much.
But, the thing most introduced with this update, was the redoing Golden Alpaca.
I will very much give credit where credit is due again, what they did with the Golden Alpaca was pretty good. Having him voiced by D.C. Douglas was a really good choice and appropriate for this alpaca turned anime protagonist. Having him appear during the story to mock Alex was also a good choice, especially during Essentia’s Mind Dungeon, having him appear around in small minor cameos was interesting, like the title screen and being on the Christmas Tree. But, the main problem is still very much his introduction.
Now, the first part of it still was really good, the scene with Vella opening herself up to comfort Rory is still a good scene, and with the redone visuals, made the scene actually interesting to watch. Yeah Alex was still yelling about what’s going on and Michael is still essentially just standing there but the scene definitely was still improved.
The problem is still the premise of the cutscene, in which while someone is comforting someone else about death and helping them grief, a random whacky thing comes out of nowhere to interrupt with a fight, and honestly, I think it’s kind of worse? Previously, it was just a lol random xd moment, but now it’s been recontextualized with this random soul space cop guy that looks like he’s constantly getting head. It bogs down the scene more and only makes up for it with minor foreshadowing and after the fight where he starts mocking you.
I feel like if I was forced to redo this scene AND still have the Golden Alpaca, I would’ve had it where there was a “fight” with the Soul Survivor, having Rory being the only party member, constantly protecting himself from the entity, who idk probably captured the other three and is forcing them to fight Rory. I would have Rory help out his Soul in grief, and when it seems like the situation finally calmed down, THEN the Golden Alpaca shows up and takes out the Soul Survivor (a thing that happened in the new version of the scene), then I would have the Alpaca do the anime monologue, but I would also have Rory yell at him for doing this, before transitioning into the fight proper. Idk, if this scene wants to have the Golden Alpaca appear in it, the tone of the scene should reflect that, making it justified for the inclusion, instead of both versions where it completely destroys the tone, but in two completely different ways.
Yeah, even with the current changes with the 1.25 update, I still very much do not recommend playing this at all, it’s greatest flaw is that it’s boring, and even with the hilarious ending and good music, it’s just not worth it at all.
There is some part of me that hopes that it could potentially become actually decent-good with this 1.5 update if anything’s to go by with the trailers, but honestly, I’m not getting my hopes up.
ok yeah 1.5 looks good lol. the combat looks way better and looks like it flows really well while having it’s own ideas. I can’t wait to see more and I’m not joking about that. I know this whole thing was me ranting about this game for so long, but I legitimately am excited to see YIIK I.V.

Before 2018 completely disappears in our rear-view mirrors, here’s a recap of some box sets released last year that weren’t The Beatles’ White Album or Bob Dylan’s Blood on the Tracks box.
An American Treasure (Reprise)
In 1995 Tom Petty released the 6-CD Playback box, and, especially because his career lasted two more decades, it seemed unlikely that the posthumous An American Treasure would offer any uncovered goods from his heyday. But Petty’s catalog is as deep as it is extensive, and even while skipping most of the hits from the earlier box, An American Treasure isn’t a poor relative. It’s an essential companion piece, chock-full of deep cuts, demos, alternate versions, and live tracks capturing the Heartbreakers at their scruffy-but-slick best.
Girly-Sound to Guyville:
The 25th Anniversary Box Set (Matador)
Exile in Guyville was as frank a
confessional as anything ever committed to tape, and it still
stuns 25 years after its release. Phair’s detached yet intimate voice was the perfect vehicle for
vignettes wry and devastating, and while Guyville seemed to come from nowhere, fans quickly discovered the backstory: the
“Girly Sound” tapes, demos Phair made for a college friend ensconced in the indie demimonde. This set compiles a remastered version of Guyville with those demos, the best of which (like the crystalline “Don’t Holdyrbreath”) instantly conveys
the same cocktail of confusion
and desire that Phair conjured on
50 Years : Don’t Stop (Warner Brothers)
Fleetwood Mac went through
more personnel changes and stylistic shifts than nearly any major rock band, so any box is welcome if it does justice in covering their career. 50 Years does that, but has annoying discrepancies between the Spotify version and the Amazon/iTunes /physical CD version. There are tracks from the band’s early period available either on all
formats but Spotify, or on none but Spotify. Spotify is also out of chronological order, making it harder to track the band’s continual revelations than it is on the non-
Spotify versions. Which is all to
say, Fleetwood Mac: They’re
The Girl From Chickasaw County: The Complete Capitol Masters (Capitol)
In four years, Bobbie Gentry dropped seven studio albums, including her Grammy-winning 1967 debut, Ode To Billie Joe. She wrote the lion’s share of her material, marrying country, pop, soul, and on occasion, bossa nova, delivering it in a sultry, soulful, sophisticated purr. In 1971, Gentry stopped recording, concentrating on her Las Vegas revue, which she produced, arranged, and choreographed. In 1978, she totally ghosted. The exhaustive Girl From Chickasaw Country—which collects all of Gentry’s studio albums plus demos, alternate takes, and live cuts—is a revelation. The exaltation of Bobbie Gentry is long overdue.
Stax ’68: A Memphis Story (Concord)
Glorious—and considering the circumstances, nearly miraculous. In 1968, Memphis was already in the midst of a contentious sanitation workers’ strike when Martin Luther King Jr.’s assassination sent the city into psychic turmoil. And in 1968, Stax split with Atlantic and discovered Atlantic owned all of the Stax recordings. This came just after Otis Redding, the label’s most bankable star, died in a plane crash. Yet Stax managed to release dozens of singles, including classics from hitmakers like Sam & Dave as well as gems from forgotten talents, like Linda Lyndell’s original version of “What a Man.” There’s also psychedelic pop from Bobby Whitlock (who would go on to play keys for Derek and the Dominos), and blue-eyed soul from Delaney & Bonnie.

At the end of the year 2015 the company RETIA signed a contract for delivery of 2 pcs of ReVISOR short range radars.
RETIA produced, supplied and integrated 4 pcs of ReVISOR radars into the Ground Based Air Defence structure of the Czech Armed Forces in the years 2014 – 2015.
Thereafter these radars got through several international military trainings in the Czech Republic as well as abroad very successfully, e.g. Iron Sword 2014 (http://www.military-retia.cz/cs/novinky/radar-revisor-zachytil-neviditelny-bezpilotni-letoun), Tobruq Legacy 2015 (http://www.military-retia.cz/cs/novinky/tobruq-legacy-2015-nejvetsi-cviceni-pozemni-protivzdusne-obrany-v-cr-ukonceno).
The Czech Army is planning to integrate ReVISOR into the structure of Ground Based Air Defence units of NATO Response Forces (NRF).

In more detail
Corrections to reattribution payment rules
Prior to the Technical Corrections, the reattribution payment rules did not apply to a disregarded payment received in exchange for property. The regulations had provided that the rules of Treas. Reg. section 1.861-20(d)(2) governed disregarded payments received in exchange for property. Treas. Reg. section 1.861-20(d)(2), in turn, provides that foreign law gain that is subject to foreign tax upon an event that is a disposition of property under foreign law but not a disposition of property under US federal income tax law is assigned to the grouping to which a corresponding US item of gain or loss would be assigned on a taxable disposition of the property under US federal income tax law, without mentioning the reattribution payment rules. The corresponding US item of gain or loss on a taxable disposition of property under US federal income tax law would be the item of US gross income or loss that would have arisen from the disposition, had there been a disposition for US federal tax purposes. It is difficult to believe that Treasury contemplated all along that applying the reattribution payment rules was part of the process of hypothesizing the taxable disposition of the property under US federal income tax law under paragraph (d)(3)(v)(D) and (d)(2), especially since, under the revised regulations, such hypothetical disposition only applies to the extent that the disregarded sale is not treated as a reattribution payment.
The corrections to Treas. Reg. section 1.861-20 provide that the pre-correction rules only apply to the portion of the disregarded payment “other than the portion of the disregarded payment that is a reattribution payment.” In other words, first the reattribution payment rules apply to disregarded sale of property and then only the amount, if any not treated as a reattribution payment, is subject to the rule that applied prior to the Technical Corrections.
Applying the reattribution payment rules to a disregarded payment of property could have the effect of allocating a foreign tax imposed on a disregarded payment from, say, the tested income group to the foreign base company sales income group. Consider a scenario where a CFC manufactures products through a manufacturing branch in country M which it sells to a low-taxed sales branch of the CFC in country S. The sales branch makes a disregarded payment to the manufacturing branch for the products, and sells the products to third-party customers. The CFC’s profits are attributable in part to the sales branch’s activities and in part to the manufacturing branch’s activities. Suppose that the CFC’s profits attributable to the sales branch are foreign branch company sales income and those attributable to its manufacturing are tested income. One might expect that the foreign income tax imposed by country S on the sales branch’s profits would be allocated to the foreign base company sales income group and the foreign income tax imposed by country M on the manufacturing branch’s profits would be allocated to the tested income group. This, however, does not appear to be how the rules work. Because the CFC has both tested income and foreign base company sales income on the regarded sale, the foreign income tax imposed by country S should be apportioned between the tested income group and the foreign base company sales income group, even though country S may impose the foreign income tax solely on income that is treated as foreign base company sales income. This is because the reattribution rules expressly prevent reattribution of income away from a taxable unit from affecting how the foreign taxes imposed on a taxable unit are allocated and apportioned. See Treas. Reg. section 1.861-20(d)(3)(v)(B)(3). Applying the reattribution payment rules to disregarded payments provides an analogous apportionment of the foreign income tax imposed by the manufacturing branch’s jurisdiction. That is, if the reattribution payment rules apply to the disregarded payment from the sales branch to the manufacturing branch, the rules appear to assign a part of the disregarded payment to the CFC’s foreign base company sales income group within the general category, even though the manufacturing branch would derive tested income on a regarded sale of the property. This is because the reattribution payment rules reattribute part of the CFC’s income that is recognized for US tax purposes, i.e., the income derived from the customers, to the manufacturing branch, and the reattributed amount has the same character as the US gross income that is attributed. See Treas. Reg. sections 1.861-20(d)(2)(v)(B)(2), 1.951A- 2(c)(7)(ii)(B), 1.904-4(f)(2)(vi)(B)(2). As a consequence, the foreign tax imposed by country M would be apportioned in part to the CFC’s foreign base company sales income group and in part to the CFC’s tested income group.
Arguably, the rules would have better matched foreign income taxes to the income to which they relate by allocating all of the foreign income tax imposed by country S to foreign base company sales income and all of the foreign income tax imposed by country M to the tested income group. That said, the reattribution rules, as corrected, achieve better parity between the apportionment of the foreign income tax on the regarded sale and the apportionment of the foreign income tax on the disregarded sale. If the reattribution rules had not been corrected, it appears that the country S tax would have been apportioned between the foreign base company sales income group and the tested income group, while the country M tax would have been allocated entirely to the tested income group.
The corrections to Treas. Reg. section 1.861-20 also remove disregarded payments for property from the scope of “remittances” and “contributions.” That is, no portion of a disregarded payment in exchange for property can be a remittance or contribution. Accordingly, it is unnecessary to consider any reattribution asset in connection with a disregarded payment in exchange for property.
Corrections to cost recovery requirement
Taxpayers and practitioners had voiced concern that the cost recovery requirement, as modified by the Final Regulations, was overly stringent. The cost recovery requirement is one of the four requirements that a foreign tax must now satisfy to qualify as a creditable net income tax (the original three requirements were the realization requirement, the gross receipts requirement, and the cost recovery requirement, and, post-Final Regulations, the latest requirement is the attribution requirement). Under the Final Regulations, Treasury amended the cost recovery requirement to provide that a foreign net income tax must allow recovery of significant costs and expenses, and that costs and expenses “related to capital expenditures, interest, rents, royalties, wages or other payments for services, and research and experimentation are always treated as significant costs and expenses.” The cost recovery requirement contained an exception, whereby foreign tax law would be “considered to permit recovery of significant costs and expenses even if recovery of all or a portion of certain costs or expenses is disallowed, if such disallowance is consistent with the principles under the Internal Revenue Code, including disallowances intended to limit base erosion or profit shifting.” The cost recovery requirement also included several examples of such permitted disallowances -- limitations on interest deductions based on principles similar to those underlying section 163(j), disallowances of interest and royalty deductions in connection with hybrid transactions based on principles similar to those underlying section 267A, and disallowances of certain expenses based on public policy considerations similar to those disallowances contained in section 162. Taxpayers, however, were concerned that each disallowance under foreign law would have to have a corresponding counterpart in the Code disallowing the same deduction, and that the legislative history of the foreign law would have to show that the disallowance was intended to limit base erosion or profit shifting or was based on public policy concerns underlying section 162.
The Technical Corrections have loosened the cost recovery requirement, making it easier to meet. The italicized portion above has been changed to “consistent with any principle underlying the disallowances required under the Internal Revenue Code, including the principles limiting base erosion or profit shifting and public policy concerns.” While there may be room for interpretation, the amended sentence appears to say that, regardless of the foreign law’s intent underlying a disallowance, the foreign tax can meet the cost recovery requirement if the disallowances have the effect of limiting base erosion or profit shifting. This would widen the permissible disallowances to most cross-border payments, which would be consistent with Treasury’s reassurances that taxpayers were reading the cost recovery requirement too narrowly. Michael Rapoport, Treasury Tries to Calm Fears Over Foreign Tax Credit Rules, Daily Tax Report (July 26, 2022) (Treasury official explained that cost recovery requirement does not require a “one-to-one correspondence” between foreign and US law). The Technical Corrections also generalized the examples of acceptable disallowances to remove references to Code sections 163(j) and 267A, and clarified that a foreign tax can meet the cost recovery requirement even if the foreign tax law significantly delays the recovery of the cost of property until, for example, the taxpayer disposes of the property. Although not found in the text of the Technical Corrections, the IRS publicly clarified that the German license barrier rule should be considered consistent with the principles of base erosion and therefore allowable under the regulations. Andrew Velarde, IRS Tries to Address Some Concerns Over FTC Cost Recovery Rule, Tax Notes Today (April 1, 2022).
What was not addressed by the Technical Corrections
The Technical Corrections do not amend the most vexing aspect of the Final Regulations -- the attribution requirement for foreign withholding taxes on royalties, which requires that the royalties be sourced based on the place of use, or the right to use, the intangible property. Unless the foreign withholding tax qualifies as a creditable foreign tax under a treaty to which the United States is a party, the attribution requirement would make many previously creditable foreign withholding taxes on royalties no longer creditable because few countries source royalties based on place of use. We outlined our concerns regarding this requirement in Final FTC Regulations Cause Double Taxation – Burden(s) Fall on Taxpayers. Treasury officials have announced that a safe harbor for royalty withholding taxes is forthcoming in the form of a proposed regulation, though the specifics of the safe harbor have not been made public. Andrew Velarde, Treasury Likely to Issue FTC Regs’ Royalty Withholding Carveout, Tax Notes Today (May 23, 2022). By signaling that the change would be made through a proposed regulation, Treasury likely views the safe harbor as a substantive change that it would not have been able to make through the Technical Corrections.

Himachal CM seeks release of electricity arrears from Punjab, Haryana
New Delhi, Aug 31 (IANS) Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Virbhadra Singh called on Union Power Minister Piyush Goyal on Wednesday and sought his intervention for release of electricity arrears from Punjab and Haryana.
The Chief Minister apprised the Union Minister about the Supreme Court’s 2011 directive to Punjab and Haryana, who hold shares in the projects, to clear the electricity arrears relating to Bhakra Beas Management Board’s (BBMB) three hydropower projects in the hill state.
Official sources said while the hill state is claiming a whopping Rs.4,250 crore arrears from Punjab and Haryana for these projects, a counter claim of Rs.1,611.88 crore has come from the two states for its share in the construction cost of these projects.
The Supreme Court had raised Himachal’s share to 7.19 percent of the power generated by the projects – Bhakra, Beas (Dehar) and Beas (Pong) – against the 2.5 per cent it was earlier getting.
Since Himachal’s share had gone up, it should bear the liability towards the capital costs of the projects to that extent, Punjab’s affidavit said.
The Chief Minister also urged Goyal for constructive support of his ministry in implementing small hydropower projects so that these could be completed within a stipulated time frame.
Goyal directed the authorities to take effective steps for an amicable solution and release of share of the hill state from the BBMB projects, an official statement of the state government said.
