This week, American Cruise Lines announced a new cruise that will take passengers through 20 US states. Once the cruise sets sail, it will be the longest domestic cruise ever, lasting 61 days.
The route passes 4 major rivers and stretches of beautiful coastline before ending at America’s most iconic landmark. Tickets for the cruise are on sale.
American Cruise Lines pulls out all the stops for this epic cruise—passengers will travel aboard the nation’s newest ships.
Cabins and suites will have private balconies and there will be a variety of restaurants, cafes and lounges, as well as a great observation deck from where they can enjoy the entire landscape.
From sea to shining sea
Starting on the west coast and heading east, The Great United States sailing takes passengers through some of the most scenic areas of the country.
Passengers will have the opportunity to see several national parks, towering mountain ranges, rocky coasts and historic ports. Over the course of two months, guests travel through all four time zones in the continental US
You might be wondering how all this is even possible. The answer is that the cruise takes place on three different ships with different flight segments.

Six different segments
To manage such an epic journey from coast to coast, the cruise is divided into six different segments, each with its own amazing attributes.
Days 1-8: The cruise begins on the Columbia River in Portland, Oregon and travels to the mouth of the Pacific Ocean before turning back and sailing east. Travelers will enjoy views along the Columbia and Snake Rivers before ending at Hell’s Canyon, where Oregon, Washington, and Idaho meet.
Days 9-14: Traveling overland, guests will have the opportunity to visit some of America’s most incredible national parks. The private guided tour will visit Glacier National Park, Yellowstone National Park, and Grand Teton National Park before ending in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.
Days 15-38: After flying from Jackson, Wyoming to New Orleans, Louisiana, passengers board another boat and continue their journey. This segment crosses 1,393 miles of the mighty Mississippi River from New Orleans to St. Paul, Minnesota. On its way, the cruise will pass through 10 states.
Days 39-47: Another flight connects the Mississippi segment to New England. After arriving in charming Portland, Maine, passengers will board another boat and explore the beautiful Maine coastline, including Penobscot Bay and Bar Harbor. After 8 days of exploring the region, the boat ends its journey in Boston, Massachusetts.
Days 48-54: Passengers can enjoy more of the scenic New England coastline during the fifth segment of the cruise, which begins in Boston and ends in New York. The boat passes many famous locations including Plymouth, Massachusetts, Cape Cod, Newport Arizona and Long Island, New York.
Days 55-61: A cruise of such epic proportions should go out with a bang, and the final segment has a nice surprise up its sleeve.
After guests leave New York, they will travel up the Hudson River where they will be greeted by some of the best fall foliage in the country just in time for peak foliage season.
After turning around in Albany, New York, the cruise ends at the Statue of Liberty in New York.
Tickets are now on sale
The first sailing of The Great United States cruise takes place from August 14, 2024 to October 14, 2024. Tickets are now on sale on the American Cruise Line website. Prices for the 2-month voyage start at $51,000 per person and can go up to $77,954 per person, depending on the cabin chosen.
When booking the cruise, passengers must pay a deposit of $5,000.
Each cruise ticket includes flights and hotels between cruise segments, pre-cruise hotel stays, daily excursions and entertainment, all meals and beverages, complimentary WiFi, gratuities and port fees, and an assortment of American Cruise Lines merchandise.

Energous Corporation (Energous) has announced the launch of a new 2-Watt transmitter for its PowerBridge wireless power solution. PowerBridge is an Over The Air (OTA) RF-based wireless power system that can deliver energy at range. This new system is intended to address the growing requirements of IoT ecosystems across supply chain, logistics, retail, industrial and agricultural applications which currently rely on mains power and batteries. Introducing an OTA wireless power system such as Energous’ PowerBridge (or those from other companies such as Ossia, PowerCast, and Guru) should make mass deployment of sensors easier than a wired system that requires the installation of physical power cables and cheaper than batteries that require replacement.
The 2-Watt transmitter will help Energous to meet the requirements of more power-hungry IoT systems. This new solution will add to Energous’ current catalogue of 1 Watt and 5.5 Watt Systems along with a reported 15 Watt version that was approved by the FCC last year. This is another step along the path toward mass adoption of RF wireless power systems. The addition of a 2-Watt system rather than reaching for ever higher powers shows that Energous are doubling down on IoT systems, a market well suited for OTA wireless power transfer thanks to the benefits it offers at very low power levels. The Wireless Power and Charging Technologies service from SAR Insight and Consulting breaks out the most important sectors for OTA wireless power alongside other prominent wireless power and charging technologies.


Unbeknown to me, there’s a magazine devoted to everyone’s favorite polyamide yarn, Nylon. Weird. Even weirder? The latest issue of Nylon is devoted to its arch nemesis, denim, otherwise known as America’s most beloved rugged, durable twill fabric. The tension is palpable in this issue making it a must read. Oh and there’s a bunch of pictures of a half-naked Mischa Barton in it too if that’s more your thing.

T 0834/09 (Public availability/HYDRO-QUEBEC) 02-02-2012
Cathode materials for secondary (rechargeable) lithium batteries
I. This appeal lies from the decision of the opposition division revoking European patent No. 0 904 607 with a claim 1 reading as follows:
"1. A cathode material for a rechargeable electrochemical cell, said cell also comprising an anode and an electrolyte, the cathode comprising a compound having the formula LiMPO4 where M is at least one first-row transition-metal cation selected from the group consisting of Mn, Fe, Ni and Ti, or a combination thereof; and wherein the compound has an ordered olivine structure."
II. In the opposition procedure, the parties agreed that the subject-matter of above claim 1 was disclosed in its entirety in document
D1: A. K. Padhi et al: "LiFePO4: A Novel Cathode Material for Rechargeable Lithium Batteries", The Electrochemical Society, Inc. Meeting Abstracts, Volume 96-1 (Spring Meeting, Los Angeles, Calif., May 5-10, 1996), page 73, Abstract No. 58.
The patent proprietor nevertheless contested that document Dl had been made available to the public before the priority date of the contested patent, i.e. before 23 April 1996.
III. In the contested decision, the opposition division concluded that document D1 was made available to the public before this date because it was proven it had been received by several libraries well before the above date and electronically catalogued by one of these libraries on 9 April 1996. The opposition division considered that "once an electronic registration took place, respective document was also retrievable for the public, even though it was not shelved".
IV. Among the documents cited in the opposition phase, the following are of relevance for the present decision:
D14: Declaration by Mr. Tony A. Harvell of the University of California Libraries San Diego; 7 July 2006
D19: Affidavit of Mr. Tony A. Harvell of the University of California Libraries San Diego, La Jolla, California, 17 August 2007.
V. With its statement setting out the grounds of appeal, the patent proprietor (hereinafter the "appellant") contested the conclusions of the opposition division, arguing in particular that there was no evidence that D1 was catalogued or shelved, and so made available to the public, before 23 April 1996.
VI. By communication dated 19 November 2009, the opponent (hereinafter the "respondent") argued that it was proven that several libraries received D1 well before the priority date of the patent. The staff of these libraries not being bound by any obligation of secrecy, D1 had thus been made available to the public.
VII. Oral proceedings were held on 2 February 2012 in the presence of both parties.
VIII. The parties' requests were established as follows:
The appellant requested that the decision be set aside and that the case be remitted to the department of first instance for further prosecution.
The respondent requested that the appeal be dismissed.
1. The main question to be decided in this appeal is whether or not document D1 - which indisputably discloses the subject-matter of claim 1 at issue - was made available to the public before the earliest priority date of the contested patent, i.e. before 23 April 1996.
2. Regarding the public availability of a document received in a library, the jurisprudence of the boards of appeal is as follows:
In T 381/87 (OJ EPO 1990, 213) it was considered that the shelving before the relevant date was evidence enough for establishing the public availability of a document in a public library, regardless of whether any person looked at it or actually knew it was available.
According to other decisions (T 314/99 (sections 5.1 to 5.6 of the reasons) or T 186/01 (section 4. of the reasons)), a document did not become publicly available by its mere arrival in the archive of a library. Rather the possibility that the public could acquire knowledge or awareness of the existence of a document - for instance by cataloguing - was seen as a precondition of its public availability in the library before the relevant date.
3. In the case at issue, it is uncontested that document D1 was received and date stamped by the University of California Libraries San Diego on 3 April 1996. The statement of Mr Harvell in document D14, items 5) to 8) and the date stamp "Received on: 04-03-1996" visible on the reproduction of the stamped page of the original print of the Meeting Abstracts publication - which includes the abstract D1 - corroborate the reception of document D1 in the aforementioned library well before the earliest priority date of the contested patent.
There is no evidence whatsoever that D1 was shelved before the relevant date, and the evidence from D14 that D1 was catalogued has been contested by the appellant on the basis of D19.
4. The board observes that none of the aforementioned decisions T 381/87, T 314/99 or T 186/01 addressed the question of the public availability of a document by reception and date stamping by a staff member in a public library. This issue and in particular the quality of the staff member as belonging to the public and the possibility for the public to gain access to the information in the document will be focused on hereinafter.
5. As to the question whether a person in charge of the reception and date stamping of a document received by mail in a public library - such as document D1 in the University of California San Diego Libraries - is a member of "the public" within the meaning of Article 54(2) EPC, the board observes the following:
5.1 According to the jurisprudence of the boards of appeal, information is said to be publicly available if only a single member of the public is in a position to gain access to it and understand it, and if there is no obligation to maintain secrecy (T 1081/01, section 5. of the reasons and T 1510/06, section 4.2.1 of the reasons).
Further, according to T 0165/96 (section 1.1.1 of the reasons) which concerned the public availability of technical information drafted in Danish and disclosed in an insert in a minor small-ads newspaper (circulation: 24,000) distributed in the suburbs of Copenhagen, the "public" within the meaning of Article 54(2) EPC did not presuppose a minimum number of people or specific language skills or educational qualifications. It followed that the residents of a Copenhagen suburb were held to represent the public.
In another case (T 0398/90, section 6. of the reasons), a marine engine installed in a ship was held to have been made available to the public because it had been known to the engine room crew.
5.2 For the board, it follows by analogy from the above jurisprudence that the person in charge of the reception and date stamping of an incoming document at a public library is without any doubt a member of the public - just like the residents of a Copenhagen suburb or the crew working in a ships engine room - as this staff member is in no way bound by any obligation to maintain secrecy about the publications he/she handles and the content thereof, and after all, his/her very function as a staff member of a public library is to make information available to the public.
6. As to the question relating to the possibility for the public to gain access to the information in said incoming document, it is observed that:
6.1 It is part of the case law of the boards of appeal that the theoretical possibility of having access to information renders it available to the public (T 444/88, point 3.1 of the reasons). In the case at issue, this means that a printed document received by mail at a public library is clearly rendered available to the public, since the staff member in charge of its reception and date stamping is not bound by any obligation to maintain secrecy and is thus free to pass the document on to others which is precisely his or her job.
6.2 Moreover, in the case of a written disclosure it is irrelevant whether the staff member is a person skilled in the art or not, because the content of a written disclosure can be freely reproduced and distributed even without understanding it. It follows that date stamping an incoming document in a public library is the point of time at which the document is leaving the non-public domain and entering the public domain. Once placed in the public domain, there is no longer anything that restrains or obstructs access to said information, since the content of the document can be freely reproduced, distributed, transmitted, or otherwise exploited.
6.3 It follows that the appellant's argument that the reception and data stamping operation is not open to the "public" is no longer relevant since at least one person - the member staff in charge of the reception and stamping - had free access to the document and could, at least theoretically, have passed the information contained therein on to anybody else.
As stated in the case law cited above, this theoretical possibility of access by at least one person not bound by any explicit or implicit confidentiality agreement is sufficient. Openness to "the public" does not require access to an unlimited number of arbitrary persons (a ship's engine room is certainly not open to the public in that sense).
7. The board therefore concludes from the above reasoning that the action of receiving and date stamping an incoming document in a public library suffices to make a written document available to the public and that a person fulfilling this action can be described as a member of "the public" in the sense of Article 54(2) EPC.
8. In the light of the above findings, the board concludes that document D1 was made available to the public before the priority date of the patent in suit and is thus, according to Article 54(2) EPC, comprised in the state of the art. It follows that claim 1 of the sole request on file, the subject-matter of which is disclosed in entirety in D1, lacks the requirements of novelty of Article 54 (1) and (2) EPC.
9. Due to the fact that the sole request on file cannot be allowed, the appeal cannot be successful.
For these reasons it is decided that:
The appeal is dismissed

His elder brothers were called Bernard and John. By contrast his own first name, Wystan, was exotic; but it reflected one of his father's great interests in life. George Auden was a doctor of medicine by profession, but he was also widely read in many other fields, among them Saxon and Norse antiquities.
This was partly the result of his having been educated at Repton school in Derbyshire, for the parish church there has a particularly fine Saxon crypt which attracted his attention when he was young. The church is dedicated to St Wystan, a Mercian prince who was murdered in the year 849 after he had objected to the uncanonical marriage of his widowed mother to his uncle - "a rather Hamlet-like story," remarked Wystan Auden.
The story of St Wystan is recorded in a Little Guide to Shropshire, under the entry for Wistanstow, the place in the county where he was martyred. The author of the Little Guide was Wystan Auden's uncle, the Rev. J. E. Auden, and Wystan carefully preserved his own copy of it. He was very possessive about his first name; he said he would be "furious" if he met another Wystan.Wistanstow is a charming village, not least because it is the home of The Wood Brewery and its tap, The Plough Inn. But Wistow in Leicestershire also claim to be the site of St Wystan's martyrdom - and the site of the miraculous growth of golden hair from his grave that first proved his saintliness. And I have always understood that it has the stronger claim: when the Church appointed a commission to investigate the claimed miracle, its members all came from the East Midlands.
So it was a surprise to read this in the Daily Telegraph review of Mick Sharp's book The Way and the Light: An Illustrated Guide to the Saints and Holy Places of Britain:
The churchyard at Wistow in Cambridgeshire, for instance, is the likely location of the 9th-century martyrdom of St Wystan. Each year on his feast day, human hair was said to grow through the churchyard grass. "But when I visited shortly after his feast," writes Sharp coyly, "the grass was neatly mown."So three places claim to be the site of Wystan's martyrdom. Unless, of course, you know of any more.

Allen Morris Starting Construction On Second Star Metals District Apartment
The Florida-based developer filed an application with the city of Atlanta to begin foundation work on Stella Lofts, a planned 20-story, 331-unit multifamily development a block from the 409-unit Star Metals Residences that were developed in Phase 1 of the mixed-use project in 2020.
The building has since rebranded as Sentral West Midtown at Star Metals after Denver-based flexible housing operator Sentral bought a majority stake in the building from the developer after it delivered, CEO Allen Morris told Bisnow.
The 338K SF Stella Lofts, at 660 11th St. in West Midtown, will include a parking garage, retail and commercial space, according to the application. Morris told Bisnow that the firm is in talks to secure construction financing.
The building is the first piece of the planned second phase of its Star Metals District. Earlier this year, the developer filed an application with the Georgia Department of Community Affairs to expand Star Metals with an additional 775 residential units, 50 hotel/short-term rental units, 200K SF of offices and 80K SF of retail.
The first phase of the project also included the Star Metals Offices building, anchored by IWG’s Signature by Regus luxury coworking operations and Seattle-based sales engagement software maker Outreach.

For my post in the Monster Mash blog tour, I am excited to show you how I made a Jesse Quick costume! For those of you not familiar with Jesse Quick, she is a character in DC Comics, The Flash.
I used the new cosplay suit from Rad Patterns as the base for the costume. The cosplay suit pattern is perfect for so many costumes, and comes in kids, women’s, men’s and in many different bundle options. I plan on using the cosplay suit pattern for at least two more Halloween costumes this year. Until 10/13 you can save 20% off your Rad Patterns purchase and 50% of the sales will go to the ovarian cancer research fund. You can read more info about the sale here.
The cosplay suit pattern is designed to have a drop crotch. Even though I knew that I did not want to have the drop crotch in the final costume, I still cut the pattern as designed. Then, before I added the zipper, I folded the bodice all around the waist area and sewed down two lines of stitching. This gave the look of a jacket and pants, just like Jesse Quick wears. I also modified the cuffs to have thumb holes. Once I had the basic suit made, I was able to start adding in all of the details.
The larger details were added by first making paper pattern pieces. For the details around the armscye, I placed a piece of paper on the suit and traced along the seams to get as close as possible. After making templates for each of the pieces, I cut mirror images of them out of the black and gold fabrics. I had my daughter put on the suit and then used Wonder tape to position each of the fabric pieces on the costume. Next, she carefully took off the costume, so that the pieces remained in place, and then I sewed each piece down using a stretch stitch.
I did not sew down all of the smaller gold lines. For those I used to E600 to glue them down. The thin black lines were added by gluing down some elastic stretch cord. As a perfectionist, it is hard not to get carried away with adding every single detail.
My husband helped our daughter make her mask, the lightening bolt symbol and the gold belt buckle. They used sheets of foam, and paint to make them. I also made some simple fabric covers to go over her boots.
My daughter is so happy with her Jesse Quick costume! One of my other daughters is going to be another Flash character named Zoom for Halloween. I will have more details in another blog post once her Zoom costume is finished.

AMD has outed its enthusiast-grade X670E + X670 chipsets and a bunch of new motherboards are being announced, with MSI accidentally revealing AMD's new DDR5 memory overclocking technology.
MSI outed AMD's new "EXPO" technology, which popped its head up inside of MSI's own X670 launch slides... but AMD didn't make a mention of it. MSI has asked other websites to remove the post, as it seems mentions of EXPO is triggering alarm bells for the company, or it could be completely wrong.
We have no idea what AMD's new EXPO technology is going to do exactly, but there are some things that AMD didn't share, that MSI shared through the leaked slides. We know that AMD is claiming just 24 PCIe 5.0 lanes, but MSI is saying there will be 28 PCIe 5.0 lanes (this could change, could be a mistake, or could be a future SKU).

You can see that there is a "TDP" of between 65W and 170W on AMD's new Zen 4-powered Ryzen 7000 series CPUs, and the 28 lanes of PCIe 5.0 goodness. Ex-TweakTown staffer Paul Alcorn tweeted not long after, saying that "AMD has confirmed that the 170W figure for AM5 is PPT, not TDP".

Not too easy. Not too difficult.
I would recommend this course because there is so much you learn about modern dance, including Modern dance history and a lot of different modern technique. I also loved Sister Anderson's approach in this class.
I learned how to breath and to engage in my core. I loved learning new technique and new dances.
Hours per week:
Advice for students:
I would make sure to practice outside of class. I know it can be difficult but you will honestly perform a lot better if you put in outside practice time.

The Duchess of Sussex threw a subtle nod at her hubby during one of a first public appearance at the National Theatre in London and it’s safe to say that royal watchers are going into a tailspin.
On January 30th, 2019, Meghan Markle arrived at the National Theatre in London. As one of her four royal patronages, Meghan greeted the staff accompanied by her growing baby bump. The Duchess looked classy in a beige dress and matching blazer.
The soon-to-be mom topped off the look one of her most iconic fashion pieces: her beige pointed-toe shoes are her Aquazzura Matilde crisscross pumps. You may recognize these now adored pumps from the day she publicly announced her royal engagement to Prince Harry in the Sunken Gardens of Kensington Palace on November 27th, 2017.
While Meghan’s ensemble may have been unrecognizable to most, true royal watchers immediately noticed her shoes. The day she was introduced to the world as Prince Harry’s future wife was a day that marked her entire life. And while everyone wears shoes, Meghan’s engagement shoes received major recognition as they helped paint the picture of Prince Harry and Meghan’s relationship.
Meghan arrived at the National Theatre where she was greeted by members of the theatre who working to create a musical version of a Shakespeare play. Having been in the entertainment industry for years herself, Meghan fit right in with the rest of the entertainers.
The Duchess was also lucky enough to catch an adorable performance by primary school children as they performed the play War Horse. As a child, Meghan often participated in plays and entertaining opportunities as she had always wanted to be an entertainer.
According to PEOPLE, Meghan Markle “is a strong believer in using the arts to bring people from different backgrounds and communities together, and this first official visit to The National Theatre will explore the work they do, as well as meeting some of the talented teams and apprentices working behind the scenes.” Her involvement at the National Theatre in London will likely be amongst her most favorited patronages.

Earlier today, I received word from a friend of Liberti Church who wants to see us be able to raise the funds for the first phase of the For The City initiative renovations to the First Baptist Building, and get into the second phase. This will allow us to meet the needs of this building sooner rather than later, and ready this space for another century of ministry to God's Kingdom.
This was their offer: If Liberti Church can raise the $4 million to reach our goal, they will donate an additional $1 million!! That would mean we’d have $5 million raised for renovations - but, we need to raise $4 million to receive this additional gift!
To see this happen, we need to do three things:
First, pray! Pray that God provides for Liberti Church!
Second, help us spread the word! If you have family members, friends, or know of others who’d see the strategic value of this initiative, would you reach out to them and encourage them to give? Anyone, near or far, can commit a pledge by using our secure online form here.
Third, join us on Sunday, and come ready to give! This Sunday, November 16th, is the day we’re all going to be turning in our pledges for how we’re going to invest in the For The City initiative. So make sure to join us on Sunday, ready to invest generously and sacrificially in what God’s doing in Philadelphia!
See you Sunday!

File photo: DeSoto County Schools Supt. Cory Uselton speaks to the Rotary Club of Olive Branch in August 2021. (Bob Bakken/DeSoto County News)
According to a new report from the Mississippi Center of Public Policy (MCPP), just over half of the 50 highest-paid public officials in the state are school district superintendents and the DeSoto County School District (DCS) leader is one of those listed.
MCPP has released what it calls its “Fat Cat Report,” listing the salaries of the top-paid public officials. Twenty-six school superintendents are among the top 50.
The report is meant “not to criticize every highly paid public officials,” MCPP wrote in the release. “Some public officials are paid to do demanding jobs requiring specialized skills that generate public good. This report aims to trigger a debate about what we pay public officials.”
A positive light in the report was shown on DCS Supt. Cory Uselton, who is listed as the 10th highest-paid official in the state with a salary of $210,900 annually. That is an eight-percent increase from 2021, the report stated.
At the same time, it notes that DeSoto County Schools is ranked first in value for money per district and that the district is an “A”-rated district.
The annual Mississippi Fat Cat report ranks the highest-paid public officials in our state and compares their salaries to the average pay of a teacher, nurse, or State Trooper, as well as the average Mississippian.
Although higher-education salaries are provided out of public funds, MCPP excluded university salaries, as it believes that they sit outside the scope of the survey, which focuses on local, municipal, district, and state government salaries.
Some of the report findings are:
- The top 50 earn more than America’s 50 state governors. The combined cost of the top 50 salaries in Mississippi in 2022 is $9.6 million. If you add up the total pay of the 50 state governors across America, their combined salaries cost $7.2 million.
- All 50 earn more than Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves, whose annual salary is listed as $122,160.
- Of the 50 salaried positions, only four are elected positions and the remaining 46 positions are appointed.
- Twenty-two school superintendents earn more than the Chief Justice of the Mississippi Supreme Court.
- Only two of the top 50 are local city government employees.
MCPP offered five policy proposals to be considered.
- Require any salary increase above the federal Employment Cost Index (ECI) be approved by the state legislature. The ECI is a standard figure that accounts for the national rate of change for government pay raises in the country.
- Create a state-mandated formula to calculate the maximum allowable salary for superintendents.
- Cap more public sector pay below that earned by the state governor
- Education funding reforms: The high percentage of high salaries within school administration suggests the need for reforms regarding the way that school dollars are spent.
- Amend the Mississippi Code, which contains provisions limiting the salaries and compensation of public officials, but it also contains a provision that provides for so many exemptions as to render the limits essentially meaningless.
The Mississippi Center for Public Policy lists itself as a 501(c)3 non-profit, non-partisan organization that advocates for low taxes, light regulation, and limited government.
You can read the entire report on the MCPP website.

The publication of regulation extending the deadline in submitting CIT return
On 29 March 2021, the regulation of the Minister of Finance, Funds and Regional Policy on extending the deadline for filing the returns on the amount of income earned (loss incurred) and payment of due tax by corporate income taxpayers was published in the Journal of Laws.
Let us remind you that pursuant to Art. 27 (1) of the Corporate Income Tax Act, taxpayers are obliged to file CIT-8 returns with the tax office by the end of the third month after the end of the financial year and to pay the tax due or the difference between the tax due and the sum of the advances due paid from the beginning of the year. Thus, in the case of taxpayers for whom the tax year coincides with the calendar year, the indicated deadline should have expired on March 31, 2021.
According to the Ministry of Finance, however, due to the current epidemic state, it is reasonable to implement solutions for taxpayers helping them to fulfil their obligation to file the annual tax returns.
In consequence, the deadline has been extended until June 30, 2021 to:
- submit a return on the amount of income earned (loss incurred) in the tax year that ended between December 1, 2020 and February 28, 2021.
- pay the tax due indicated in that return or the difference between the tax due on the income indicated in that return and the sum of the advance payments due for the period from the beginning of the year
The extension also applies to taxpayers of lump-sum tax on the income of companies (the so-called Estonian CIT), whose first year of lump-sum taxation began in the period from 1 January 2021 to 1 March 2021.
It is worth mentioning that a similar regulation extending the deadline for the performance of the tax obligations mentioned above was included in the draft amendment to the Act on Excise Duty and certain other acts. However, due to the fact that the course of work on the act did not guarantee that the changes provided for therein would enter into force prior to March 31, 2021, it proved necessary to issue the regulation in question.
Furthermore, in response to the demands of business owners and accountants, it was also decided to extend the deadlines for the preparation of the financial statements for the financial year 2020, for the private sector and non-profit organizations – by 3 months, and for entities in the public finance sector – by 1 month. The Regulation of the Minister of Finance, Development Funds and Regional Policy on this matter was also published on March 29, 2021.
The Regulations extending the deadlines of submitting the CIT-8 return and preparing financial statements for 2020 came into force on March 30, 2021.

I was so excited to find one of the “Bead Soup Enclosed” envelopes in my mailbox! In celebration of Lori Anderson's new book Bead Soup. I was even more excited when I saw the bead soup inside. I couldn’t have gotten anything more perfect. Safire Rose Beads and Things sent a very generous soup. They sent beads that let me go any way I wanted to go. Seed beads and stringing wire, crimps, crimp covers, gem stones, Swarovski crystals, two different clasps, chain and more. Isn’t this just wonderful?
This was also great because it is in gunmetal, and both of my girls love gunmetal. Safire Rose also sent three of the juiciest focals ever! They were faceted hematite-like pieces that were made to go together with fittings on the back. You can see the backs in this picture.
Obviously they are meant to connect. As soon as I saw this I thought Middle Ages and pearls. I thought draped tiers. I felt that while the large chain was great, some smaller chain would be nice, so I bought two other weights to go with it. The first part of the necklace almost made itself. It's the part with the large focals and the chain. I still wanted to add in some pearls, and I felt it needed something delicate. I also wanted to incorporate those beautiful gem stone bits.
I had my daughter try it on and then began to make the linked necklace, trying it on her several times for length. The small magnetic clasp is perfect for this necklace, as it mimics the gem stones, and almost disappears into the necklace. It also allows me to use some of the hematite for sparkle. While technically it's two necklaces, I think it works best together. I consider this necklace a huge success because not only do I love it, my teenager thinks it’s cool and says she would wear it, and she’s very picky.

Eastern Female High School
|Location||249 Aisquith Street, at Orleans Street, Baltimore, Maryland|
|Area||1.4 acres (0.57 ha)|
|Architect||Andrews, Col. R. Snowden|
|Architectural style||Italian Villa|
|NRHP reference No.||71001035|
|Added to NRHP||September 10, 1971|
Eastern Female High School, also known as Public School No. 116, is a historic female high school located on the southeast corner of the 200 block of North Aisquith Street and Orleans Street, in the old Jonestown / Old Town neighborhoods, east of Downtown Baltimore and now adjacent to the recently redeveloped Pleasant View Gardens housing project / neighborhood of Baltimore, Maryland, United States. It was built in 1869-1870 and is typical of the Italian Villa mode of late 19th-century architecture. It was dedicated in a large ceremony with speeches later published in a printed phamplet and attending crowds in early 1870. Old Eastern High is a two-story brick structure that features a square plan, three corner towers (northwest, southwest, southeast), and elaborate bracketing cornices, with a similar wood decorated porch/portico over front entrance on its west side facing Aisquith Street.
Eastern Female High School was founded (along with its twin sister secondary school Western High School) in 1844 and was one of the pioneer high schools in the country devoted to secondary education for women. It was designed by Baltimore architect Colonel R. Snowden Andrews (1830-1903), also a former officer in the Confederate States Army during the American Civil War.
In 1907, the girls high school moved to larger, better equipped quarters further northeast in the city at the southeast corner of Broadway and East North Avenue (the former Samuel Gompers Vocational High School building, 1938–1953), where it remained for another three decades until 1938, when it moved to East 33rd Street and Loch Raven Boulevard (Eastern High School (Baltimore)), until it closed in the late 1980s. Then the old girls school building on Aisquith and Orleans was used as an elementary school through the early 1970s. Later in the 1970s the building was converted into apartments.
The city transferred the building to Sojourner-Douglass College in 2003 after the institution paid $150,000. The college, which also operated in several other former buildings of the Baltimore City Public Schools, ceased operation in 2015. In August 2016 the City of Baltimore listed the building on a foreclosure auction and sold it in 2017. It was to be developed into an entertainment and arts center, but the building remains vacant as of 2019.
Eastern Female High School was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1971.


For a good many of us, summer vacation is almost over and it’s time to return to the reality of classes, or just another day at work if you’re no longer in school. This past summer has been home to a number of controversial events at conventions and in the fandom alike. We’ve got four more to round things out before all is said and done. Mercifully, there’s no convention drama this month… well, not unless you count Pokemon GO Fest as a “convention”. There’s a lot of things we’d call that disaster, but “con” isn’t one of them (unless you mean “con” as in “to trick”). Anyways, on with the news!
2016 FURRY OSCARS
It’s that time of year again, Oscar season! Not the actual Oscars, mind you, but the fandom’s equivalent of them: the Ursa Major Awards. Awarded to people and projects who go above and beyond in the name of anthropomorphic entertainment, the Ursa Major Awards are community-driven, with initial nominations and ultimately voting open to the fandom. This past month the winners for 2016’s Ursas were announced. The results were full of emotions, ranging from surprise to “ugh, not again”.
First off, the big daddy title of Best Motion Picture went to Zootopia… to the surprise of literally no one. If there’s such a thing as “Ursa Bait”, this was it; in the past decade there’s probably not been such an obvious shoe-in winner since The Fantastic Mr. Fox. Right behind Nick & Judy’s furry fling was Pixar’s Finding Dory, which, while this was a great movie in its own right, stood no chance against Disney’s powerhouse. The results of the Ursas are posted in order of who received the most votes, and coming in dead last was The Secret Life of Pets, a godawful CGI movie. In what we imagine must have been a three-way tie for last place, Sing and Kung Fu Panda 3 also made the bottom of the list.
Last year, My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic won the Ursa Major for “Best Dramatic Short Work or Series.” I expressed confusion as to how MLP qualifies as “drama”. Well, it won the award again for 2016, and we’re still no closer to understanding how a cartoon meant to sell toys to little girls is somehow “drama”.
Zootopia won yet another Ursa Major this time, for its “making of” art book which conquered the Best Non-Fiction Work category, because as we all know Zootopia is real; also in the running was that VICE article we joked about last year, where their “update” on the MFF chlorine gas incident was that there wasn’t an update. The Fursonas documentary went underrated, leaving popularity separate from breaking ground – as pointed out by the Dogpatch Press piece about the first fandom feature with mainstream crossover. (Let’s not talk about butthurt from runners-up who weren’t popular either.) Director Dominic Rodriguez told us: “there was an award?”
Visual novel Major/Minor won the award for Best Game, and for some reason we had a disproportionately high amount of people trying to get us to cover this story in order to take pot shots at Klace (the game’s creator) because he asked his fans to vote for him. Uh, us here at What’s Yiffin’ did the exact same thing and no one batted an eye; these are awards chosen and voted on by the fandom, so if you’ve got the outreach to get people to vote for you, that just means you obviously stand a better chance at winning. That’s how this works. Besides, the “Best Game” category also had crap like Pokemon and Overwatch in it, games produced by people who are either unaware of, or don’t care about the Ursa Major Awards. Major/Minor winning its category doesn’t make it objectively better than these games. It just means that when it came time to vote, there were essentially two “null” options you could choose if you wanted to throw a vote away.
The illustrious Best Website award went to… wait for it… Fur Affinity. Again. Now, we don’t want to pull a John Oliver here and say “it’s [CURRENT YEAR]”, but it’s [CURRENT YEAR], and how on Earth is Fur Affinity even still a solid candidate for this award? The rest of the field wasn’t exactly strong, but e621 has been in the running multiple times and continues to get snubbed. I suppose when e621 finally does win the award, we can mark it as a turning point in the fandom. However until then, the Ursa Major will be the Oscar to e621’s Leonardo DiCaprio.
Finally, Dogpatch Press won the award for Best Magazine — shoutouts — but we’re putting you on notice. You might syndicate this show, but next year that award is as good as ours. We’re coming for you, Patch. You’ve got the remainder of the year to enjoy the title, because come 2017’s Ursas, we’re going to be top dog! (What’s Yiffin’ was eligible for nomination last year, however we did not qualify for the voting period. We’re working extra hard on making it in for 2017.)
CRUSHED, YIFFED, DESTROYED
Near the end of June, furry-critical website Vivisector disappeared off of the face of the web. We didn’t cover this at the time because we assumed it was just a random server outage or downtime. However as July came and went, we realized there was probably something more significant at play because it’s August 10th as of this article’s writing and Vivisector is still gone. Flayrah initially broke the story last month that the Crush Yiff Destroy archive site and forum had gone unresponsive; plenty of furs came out of the woodwork to say “good riddance”, but that doesn’t do Vivisector the justice it deserves.
Like it or not, Vivisector served an important purpose in the ecosystem of the fandom by allowing users to keep track of unsavory people and events in the fandom. You name it, Vivisector probably had a thread about it at some point. Stretching back to humble beginnings as a Portal of Evil spin-off website in 2007, Vivisector eventually outlasted fellow critic website Crush Yiff Destroy and became CYD’s archive when it went offline in 2010.
Though activity had waned in recent years, Vivisector remained online doing what it was known for, until a disagreement between the administrators resulted in the website being blanked and its server being taken offline. It was mistaken for just nominal downtime when it happened last June. The website’s URL at vivisector.org began responding again in the middle of July, sans-forum, with only the message “Nazi Furs Fuck Off” emblazoned on its meager homepage along with a link to a Discord chat server and the notice that the website would eventually be returning. It’s important to note however, that by taking an official side in this argument, Vivisector has relinquished its central position as an “equal opportunity offender” when it comes to criticism. Bias has now been introduced into the fray. For many this has been the official death knell of a once active and informative website.
But this is okay, communities such as Vivisector come and go. A decade ago people were concerned about sites like Encyclopedia Dramatica, but ED in its golden years has also had a fall from grace as well as multiple host/domain switches, resulting in a loss of content and confidence. Neophyte community Kiwi Farms has already stepped in to fill the void left by Vivisector by adding a furry section to their website named “Animal Control”. Whether or not they wanted this to happen, Vivisector is now officially a relic of yesteryear.
You will be missed, Vivisector.
THERE’S ONLY DARKNESS
Sonic the Hedgehog, a comic series based upon the video game and cartoon of the same name, has come to an end. SEGA announced last month that their historic 25 year run with Archie would be coming to an end, making issue #290 the final one to be printed and published. Sonic the Hedgehog’s run lasted for the aforementioned 290 issues, however if you count all of the special series and spin-offs, there were over 500 installments in the series. In 2008, Guinness recognized Sonic the Hedgehog as being the longest-running comic book adaptation of a video game, as well as being the longest-running American comic book without a reboot.
The comic is also not so fondly remembered thanks in part to former writer Ken Penders, whose obsession with his characters led him to file copyrights on them and then turn around and attempt to sue SEGA on two different occasions, neither of which panned out in Ken’s favor.
SEGA also promised that this wouldn’t be the end of the hedgehog in comic book form. Just two days after their initial announcement, SEGA kept to their word and announced they were partnering with IDW Publishing to continue Sonic’s story. An official return date hasn’t been announced, however SEGA mentioned that publication would resume some time in 2018.
POKEMON GO GET A REFUND
Finally, in our last story we travel to Chicago, IL for the first ever (and probably last) Pokemon GO Fest, an outdoor festival for the mobile game Pokemon GO. (Yes, people apparently still play it.) The concept behind the meet-up was simple: unveil the first ever legendary Pokemon at GO Fest, and offer rarer Pokemon for players to casually find. There was also the lure of special medals and in-game items to draw people out to Chicago from all over the country, and supposedly the world.
The festival was a complete disaster. As many of you who attempted to play the game at release may recall, logging onto the game and staying connected seemed almost impossible. These problems eventually went away, but once hundreds if not thousands of players all came together to try and play it in one place, they came back with a vengeance. Ultimately, Niantic had to disable in-game animations and lure functionality to restore some of the game’s playability. The CEO of Niantic, after being booed and chanted at on stage, buckled and announced that everyone would be receiving a complimentary $100 in Poke Coins, as well as a refund of their $20 ticket to attend GO Fest.
This only served to soothe the people who made it into the event however. Outside the gates of Pokemon GO Fest, the line to get in seemed to stretch endlessly in videos and pictures posted on social media by prospective attendees. There is also now a pending class action lawsuit against Niantic for travel reimbursement for the people who flew in from other parts of the United States, only to be substantially let down by the unplayability of the game.
GO Fest was such as disaster that Niantic has indefinitely postponed the “Safari Zone” event that was meant to start taking place in Europe right now. No new dates have been provided for the Safari Zone event, or if the event is even still set to happen.
That’s a wrap on last month’s top fandom stories. Thank you for joining us here on Dogpatch Press, we hope you enjoyed this peek into the fandom! Make sure you’ve subscribed to Gatorbox on YouTube and Twitch, so you’ll catch What’s Yiffin’ live!

TUCSON, Ariz. (KOLD News 13) - As school districts across Pima County continue their plans for remote learning, parents who cannot keep their students at home will have to send their kids to [classrooms].
Here is a rundown of what districts across Pima County, excluding TUSD, have planned for on-site learning during the COVID-19 pandemic:
On-campus learning will begin Monday, Aug. 17 and will be similar to a supervised study hall. This is an onsite support service for students of families that have a critical need. Because of limited space, parents will have to fill out an application and waiver for each student- explaining the need for onsite learning. Families who have the resources to support their students at home are asked to refrain from applying.
Families who have to send their students to onsite learning spaces will need to meet 4 criteria before applying. Only students who meet all 4 priority categories can apply. Families need to contact the school their child will be attending to reserve a seat, as space is limited. Onsite support will be available, but teacher instruction will continue online. Only 9 students will be allowed for each adult supervisor on-site.
Onsite learning will begin Monday, Aug. 17 and will be offered at every school across the district. An On-site Support Services Application will need to be filled out and approved by MUSD. A waiver for each student will also need to be signed. Students will be grouped to maintain appropriate social distancing protocols. The learning space will be similar to supervised study hall, with support staff. Unscheduled drop-offs will not be permitted.
Onsite support will begin Monday, Aug. 17. Parents are required to sign two forms on or before the student’s first day of attendance: A COVID-19 Parental Acknowledgement and Disclosure Form and a COVID-19 Waiver, Release, and Assumption of Risk Form. Onsite learning will only be available during school hours. It will also take on the form of a supervised study hall. Teacher’s will instruct from a remote location. Space is limited. Schools that reach capacity will send students to other schools for onsite learning.
Schools will prioritize high-risk, including disability, language barrier, special education and high school students at risk for not graduating on time. Looking at spaces that may be available, many are being used for instructional- meaning teachers are in their rooms teaching remotely. The Vail School District is still writing its guidelines for remote learning. The first day of onsite instruction has not been verified by the district.
Onsite learning will begin on Monday Aug. 17 and is intended for students in critical need. Students granted access will be assigned a designated area and will remain there for the duration of the time they participate. assigned designated areas may not be at the student’s home school. Supervision will be provided by Flowing Wells staff. Families must call student’s school to request this service. Families who qualify will receive a follow-up confirmation email and/or phone call between Thursday, August 13th and Friday, August 14th with specific information including location and times for Onsite Remote Learning Supervision.

While AI takes the spotlight, it’s not the only technology shaping the future. The survey highlights other notable technologies that will have a significant impact in 2024. Extended reality (XR), cloud computing, 5G, and electric vehicles are among the key players in this technological revolution. XR and digital twin technologies, in particular, will transform product design and testing, providing valuable insights and improving overall quality.
However, as AI becomes more integrated into our systems, cybersecurity becomes a pressing concern. Technological advancements bring new threats. The survey identifies several cybersecurity challenges that need attention in 2024, including data center vulnerability, cloud vulnerability, mobile and hybrid workforce security, ransomware attacks, phishing attacks, and insider threats. Safeguarding against these threats is crucial as AI becomes more ingrained in our daily lives.
Looking ahead to beyond 2024, the development of 6G technology is already underway. Although standardization is expected to take three to five years, researchers and technology leaders are exploring its potential. 6G offers even greater computing power and will revolutionize cryptography and cybersecurity.
Quantum computing is another area attracting attention for its potential to revolutionize computation. With significantly more computing power than traditional computers, quantum computing can solve complex problems that are currently beyond our reach. Its application to cryptography and cybersecurity provides enhanced protection against cyber threats.
To bridge the digital divide, communication satellites for mobile connectivity will bring equality to rural and developed regions in 2024. This advancement will empower individuals in remote areas, granting them access to information, communication, and economic opportunities.
As we move forward, technology continues to shape our lives in extraordinary ways. The prominence of AI as the most important technology in 2024 highlights its potential to revolutionize industries and drive innovation.

There are many attractions there and the main street is also the main city centre, which can be pretty boring to visit.
The most common reason for visiting Melbourne is to go to the South of the CBD for a few bars and to go to the Sunshine Coast for the most popular beach. I’ve never been in Sydney and I wouldn’t want to be there to visit that beach. The city itself has a large number of bars and restaurants. If you’ve never been to that city, you can always head back to your hotel and take a tour of the city itself.
Thats why I love Melbourne so much.

It's never easy living rough, but add extreme cold temperatures and surviving is even harder. And potentially life threatening.
With temperatures dipping to as low as -26 C in the North Okanagan, measures are being taken to help the area's street-entrenched community.
Randene Wejr, with Turning Points Collaborative Society, said a new program this year is making a big difference.
“We have a warming bus,” said Wejr of the Vernon program that started just before Christmas. “They go around at night and make sure there is nobody on the streets.”
The bus provided by A1 Busing, allows people to spend as much time as they want in the comfort of the heated vehicle.
“If there are any beds they will take them to the shelter or they can stay on the bus for the whole night,” said Wejr, adding there are some people who prefer not to go to the shelter.
“There's food and warm drinks and mittens and blankets and all that kind of stuff on the bus.”
The bus program also operated last year, but this year funding was provided by BC Housing.
Wejr said the shelters are busy during the cold snap and extra mats have been added to accommodate those seeking refuge from the cold.
The motel room program has also increased capacity and Wejr said between the shelter and motel program close to 200 warm beds are available.
The 2021 homeless count found 244 people living without stable housing in Vernon.
A homeless count in 2019 found 161 people living rough in Vernon. The count was not done in 2020 due to COVID concerns.
Wejr said Turning Points is in need of cold-weather items such as blankets, winter jackets, mittens, sweaters and blankets.
“We opened so many more beds we had to scrounge for blankets and linens and that type of thing,” said Wejr.
Donations can be dropped off at the shelter in the blue building on 37th Street near 25th Avenue or at the Turning Points office, 102-3301 24 Ave.


The new trailer for an upcoming fan film called Silent Hill: Echoes has been released on YouTube and it looks very freaky indeed. You can have a watch of the trailer for yourselves right here.
So, this movie is being made by a company called CD Media and they released the first look at Silent Hill: Echoes, which is a new Silent Hill fan film. The story follows James Sunderland (Michael Ciesla, Halloween: Inferno II) as he searches for his late wife, Maria (Kaylin Cervini, Book of Evil) in Silent Hill.
The trailer seems to capture the freakiness of the games perfectly. They also were very accurate as far as the character designs of the video games are concerned. I’m sure Silent Hill fans will be very excited to see this new fan film once it’s released.
Silent Hill: Echoes’ trailer is very creepy!
According to the filmmakers, Silent Hill: Echoes was made by fans, for fans. They are claiming that the movie will deliver strong horror while staying true to the franchise. Producer and Cinematographer Codey Dingfield (CD Media) came up with the concept.
Here’s what Codey had to say about the project and his inspiration to make this fan film: “Silent Hill 2 inspired me to get into horror. I remember staying up late at night, all alone with my PS2, walking around the apartment and being scared at all times! The atmosphere. The audio design. The soundtrack. The creature design… All of it is timeless and beautiful.”
The movie will be released on November 27th, 2020, and it was directed by Tim Davis and James Coleman.

What makes a motor oil Synthetic motor oil? The word “synthetic” has a pretty loose definition, a lot of manufacturer prefer the word synthetic to only apply to oils chemically formulated without the use of petroleum as a base oil.
However it is not that simple. At first lets talk about petroleum based motor oils. Petroleum based or Conventional motor oil is a lubricant that is produced directly from crude oil.
Petroleum base motor oils are very “sensitive” to temperature changes. This means at extremely low temperatures, for example at winter time, here in Canada it may be thick, and at high temperatures, it’s fairly thin. To change the oil properties, oil companies mix additives, chemicals into the petroleum base.
Those chemicals effects the oil viscosity, improve it at high and low temperature too. When a 5W-30 conventional motor oil is brand new, it can acts exactly like a 5W-30 synthetic motor oil.
The problem is comes with time, from the use, the chemical additives in the conventional oil begin to break-down and or vaporize. This means, the oil starts to get thick when cold and start to get thin when hot.
Synthetic oils work quite differently. From the start, the chemical structure is designed to match a specific multi-grade oil, plus certain additives like rust inhibitors or dispersants will be added to further improve the usefulness of the oil.
The end result is that over time the synthetic oil does not degrade as conventional oils do. From a viscosity standpoint, an old synthetic oil act pretty similar to a new synthetic oil, however it might get slightly thicker as a result of contaminants.
Some people states it, from a viscosity standpoint alone, a conventional motor oil could match the protection of a synthetic motor oil simply by changing conventional oil more often, and it is true. However synthetic motor oils not just lubricate only, they come with superior quality additives, leading to a cleaner, smoother running engine as well.
Which one is right for your car? Which one is better? Synthetic or conventional motor oil?
Before any misunderstanding, probably hard to buy a bad lubricant these days. some of them good and some others are better. Even the most basic conventional oils available on the market are far better than ones offered 10 years ago.
We believe, it’s ok to use a quality petroleum-based oil in an average car, but if you drive a luxury or a high performance vehicles, we recommend to follow the owner manual’s recommendations, which is synthetic oil.
For sure, the synthetic oil cost more, but the benefits of synthetic justify the expense, with longer oil changes intervals, reduced oil deposit formation, slightly better fuel economy and longer engine life.

“How and why do so many negative images of young black males, particularly images steeped in an outsized criminality and violence, persist in mainstream media? What are some of the consequences of this?”
These were the central questions posed by Natalie Byfield, associate professor in the Department of Sociology and Anthropology at St. John’s University in Queens, in an Oct. 30 lecture at Clark University titled, “Media Representations and the Lives of African-American Males.” Byfield’s presentation was part of the Higgins School of Humanities’ Fall 2013 Series on Framing Freedom.
Byfield began her lecture by revisiting the long history of marginalization toward men of color in America — through slavery, Reagan’s War on Drugs, and up to the present.
“How the media covered this story has, for me, more to do with this history than it has to do with this one story,” Byfield said. She was referring to the 1989 Central Park Jogger Case in which five black and Latino teens were arrested for the rape and beating of a woman in New York’s Central Park. They were convicted and served their sentences, but those sentences were later vacated when it was proven that another man, acting alone, had committed the crime. The story was examined in the recent Ken Burns documentary “The Central Park Five,” which was screened by the Higgins School prior to Byfield’s appearance.
By providing examples from history leading up to the Central Park incident, Byfield highlighted the significant role of context. “There really is no way to have this conversation about the contemporary piece without really knowing the history behind all those words and terms we saw used in the coverage, behind the messages you saw being delivered, and what ended up happening to those five young men.”
Byfield said such “words and terms” that indirectly connect race with notions of class and geography. She researched 250 articles where she coded for words related to class, victimhood, violence, age, gender and race — “jogger” and “Harlem” were two of the most frequently occurring words.
Another word came out of the case: “wilding.” The origin is unknown, but it became a blanket statement for the pursuit or “hunt” of white females by young men of color.
Byfield’s personal connection adds another layer of depth. At the time of the incident, she was working as a reporter for the New York Daily News. She was assigned to cover updates at the hospital, and ended up sneaking onto an elevator with the victim’s parents. She recalls working on the story over several months, turning the coverage at the hospital into her own beat.
During the question-and-answer period, Byfield she shared her views on where we can go from here.
“I think it’s a great idea to create spaces where marginalized voices can be heard,” Byfield said. She believes it is equally as important to challenge the mainstream in order to create a better society.
Byfield’s overall research focuses on the role of language in society, including the media in society, cultural studies, social theory, and the nature of race, gender, and class formations. Her forthcoming book “Savage Portrayals: Race, Media & the Central Park Jogger Story” will be published by Temple University Press.
Earlier this week, Ken Burns told the Huffington Post that newly elected New York Mayor Bill de Blasio is ready to reach a settlement in a civil suit filed by the five men wrongly convicted in the Central Park Jogger Case.
