How many miles would you say that your car covers? We’re talking in a single day, a week, a month – however often life dictates that you need to slip behind the wheel and run your engine. We’re not asking to cast any kind of judgment.
Here at The Sized, we’re entirely aware of how indispensable a car is in the modern world, especially for families. All the same, studies shine a sobering light on the impact of carbon dioxide from a vehicle. Just 90 miles in a car – that’s the equivalent of driving from NYC to Philadelphia – releases enough CO2 fumes to melt a foot of ice in the Arctic.
At a glance, that may not sound like too much of a big deal. The Arctic measures over 5 million square miles, and most of that space is covered in ice sheets that are up to 9 feet thick. Why shouldn’t you drive to the land of the Liberty Bell, cheesesteaks, and Rocky Balboa? It sounds like it will be a long time before these fumes start to cause an issue.
Unfortunately, it’s not just one of us that makes that decision. People all over the world are comfortably exceeding 90 miles a day in their cars. This means that millions of people are simultaneously releasing carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. In the last 40 years, over a million feet of ice has melted – and more of us are now driving private vehicles than ever before.
It is estimated that, by 2035, ice sheets will be a thing of the past during the summer. What this means remains within the field of theory for now, but rest assured, none of the potential outcomes are positive. We need to realize that we are staring down the barrel of an environmental emergency – if not within this generation, then certainly in the next.
This begs an important question, though – what can be done? While it seems that any attempts to reverse this trend are futile and are just delaying the inevitable, we owe it to Mother Nature to try.
Electric cars are growing increasingly popular, especially in Europe. The lack of combustion engines and gasoline in these vehicles means no CO2. In addition, carpooling and the use of public transport can reduce emissions.
Asking everybody to give up their car is as unfair as it is unrealistic. The fact is, a personal vehicle is a necessity, especially in modern-day America. If we can think just a little before starting our engines, though, we may be able to look to a brighter future.

Add playback speed in custom settings
It would be nice if the playback speed for each podcast could be found in the custom settings of the podcast. This would not only let me know what speed I have that podcast set at but would save a couple of clicks in adjusting the speed (depending on the screen I am starting at).
This feature has just been released
You can enable this in the app Settings/Player/Behavior
thank you this is awesome! works exactly like i would like it to.
your constant updates and improvements and listening to user feedback on top of having the most robust and customizable podcast app is why podcast addict is the best podcast app.
Eric Hall commented
I want to be able to adjust the speed when NOT playing the podcast, not just when playing the podcast. It would be nice if it was included among other custom settings for each podcast.
the issue with the speed settings as they currently exist is that although the per podcast speed can be changed easily from the player, it is problematic to see and manage the speed of an individual podcast outside of when an episode of that podcast is playing.
so adding the speed setting for a podcast to its behavior customization settings allows a user to toggle its adherence to the global setting and modify the speed for that individual podcast whenever they like, not just while an episode is playing. and revert a podcast from a custom speed back to respecting global speed settings.
Thanks for that, I've done a bit of testing, and that does seem to work. Is there anywhere in the app where I can see what the default speed for a particular podcast is?
This feature already exists. You can change the playback speed from the player screen and the new selected speed will be the default one for the current podcast
+1 for this feature - I like my spoken word podcasts at 1.2 speed, so that is my default for the app. I have a few music/ambience podcasts, where I would like it at 1.0 speed. I would like for these podcasts to play these different speeds automatically, rather than having to remember to switch it down to 1.0 when a music podcast comes on.
The fact that this is already a capability in the app means that it should be relatively easy to add it to the list of custom settings for each podcast. There could be a checkbox for whether to use the app's master play speed, and if it's unchecked then another setting to customize the play speed for that podcast. It would also be a more intuitive place to put the setting. Over the years I've adjusted the play speed of a specific podcast in the player on many occasions when I actually intended to adjust the master play speed for all podcasts. Extremely frustrating while driving.
You can do so by opening the player screen and select the playback speed of your choice. The playback speed will only change for this podcast
Craig Stacey commented
I switched to this app from BeyondPod (which broke horribly with Android 8) and this is one thing I sorely miss. Some podcasts I want to play at 1.25x, while others (especially music-heavy ones) I want at normal speed. This would be the missing piece for me.
Jim Wise commented
It would also allow setting the speed of podcasts while another podcast was playing.


Blackmagic Launch the First User Upgradeable 4K Digital Film Camera
By Matthew – July 24, 2014
It was at NAB 2014, in Las Vegas, that Blackmagic unveiled the URSA. That is the world’s first user upgradeable 4K digital film camera. They built this camera for film crews as well as single person use, and the URSA is packed full of accessories. Blackmagic’s Design CEO said of the camera:
“Our goal when developing the URSA was to build a camera that had all the cooling capacity for higher frame rates, and a large on set monitor as well as built-in scopes so you had everything you need built into the camera itself. The problem with spending so much money building in such incredible accessories is that they become outdated as sensor technology moves on. So we designed the ability to upgrade the sensor so customers can simply bolt on a new sensor and turret assembly in the future! We think this is a revolution and this upgradable design means we have been able to put a lot more effort into the design of the camera body itself and the quality of the screens, recorders, cooling system and processing power than would normally be offered. The result is one of the most amazing television products I have ever seen!”
The URSA has a 4K sensor that shoots quality Ultra HD. This sensor boasts 12 stops of dynamic range that provides much better images that those of regular video cameras.
You can remove URSA’s modular camera turret, which includes sensor and lens mount, with the removal of a few bolts. As the Super 35 global shutter 4K image sensor is user upgradable you can select URSA PL or EL lens mounts for the camera instead, and upgrade to future sensors. Other alternative Blackmagic models include the URSA Broadcast and HDMI.
Blackmagic’s URSA has a couple of duel recorders so that you do not have to stop recording to change media. You can insert an empty Cfast card into the second recorder so that the recording will continue on the second card when the current card is full. The recorders use new Cfast cards that are ideal for high frame RAW recording.
This camera incorporates a couple of 5” touch screens that include the camera settings and tools. On the left side there are all the major camera settings. The right side displays settings such as shutter angle, frame rate and format. It includes an animated histogram and a scrolling audio waveform monitor to adjust camera focus.
The URSA is a flexible camera designed to be rigged! Blackmagic have added multiple mount points over the camera so that you can use industry standard tripods. Its BNC SDI connectors allow for any type of viewfinder. Standard battery mounts can also be bolted to the back of the camera.
Blackmagic is also bundling DaVinchi Resolve software with the URSA. The DaVinchi Resolve software includes advanced video editing options. The software is compatible with both the Windows and Mac platforms.
The Blackmagic URSA EF and PL will be available from July 2014. The URSA Broadcast and HDMI are coming out later in the year. Below is a list of some of the URSA EF camera specifications.
Effective resolution: 3840 x 2160
Dynamic range: 12 stops
Sensor frame rate support: Up to 60 fps
Screen type: 10.1” – TFT-LCD
Storage type: CFast 2.0
Software included: DaVinci Resolve grading software, Blackmagic Media Express software and DiskSpeed Test.
Dimensions: 12.34 in (L) X 6.12 in (W) X 9.63 in (H)
Additional accessories included: Active EF mount turret, turret dust cap, 12V AC adapter and tripod mounting plate adapter.

My forgetter’s getting better
but my rememberer is broke.
To you that may seem funny,
but to me that is no joke.
For when I’m “here” I’m wondering
if I really should be “there,”
and when I try to think it through,
I haven’t got a prayer!
Often times I walk into a room,
I say “what am I here for?”
I wrack my brain, but all in vain
a zero, is my score.
At times I put something away
where it is safe, but, Gee!
The person it is safest from
generally is me!
When shopping I may see someone,
aay “Hi” and have a chat,
Then, when the person walks away
I ask myself, “who the heck was that?”
Yes, my forgetter’s getting better
while my rememberer is broke.
It’s driving me plumb crazy
And that isn’t any joke.

Regulators resist financial overhaul
Share Now on:
TEXT OF INTERVIEW
Bill Radke: Some pushback today on financial regulatory reform. Top regulators will testify on Capitol Hill about the Obama administration’s plans to overhaul the regulation of the banking system. Marketplace’s Jeremy Hobson joins me now live from New York with more on that. Good morning, Jeremy.
JEREMY HOBSON: Good morning.
RADKE:So we’re expecting resistance to some of the administration’s ideas?
HOBSON:We are. We’ve seen some of the prepared remarks and there are some harsh words for the proposed reforms. For instance, the head of the Office of Thrift Supervision doesn’t think it’s good idea to get rid of the Office of Thrift Supervision and start up a new national bank supervisory agency. Also, the head of the FDIC, Sheila Bair, is expected to say today that putting all of the nation’s regulatory eggs in one basket is not a good idea.
RADKE: How unusual is this to have these regulators up there on Capitol Hill publicly challenging the boss?
HOBSON:It’s unusual, and some of it has to do with having little to lose. If your agency is on the chopping block, you might as well make your case. What’s interesting here is they’ve already been told not to do this. The Wall Street Journal reported on a meeting that was held last Friday with all these regulators and the Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner. And Geithner was reportedly using obscenities and really being tough with these people, telling them enough is enough, you’ve got to get behind the president on these regulatory reform goals.
RADKE:And just quickly, remind us what the administration’s regulation proposal would do?
HOBSON:Well, it would create a new consumer protection agency, which would be like another layer of regulation on top of the regulatory agencies that already exist. It would, as we said, consolidate a couple of bank regulators. And it would also give more power to the Fed to deal with institutions that could be risky for the whole system, and not surprisingly, Bill, the Fed is perfectly fine with that.
RADKE:Jeremy Hobson, live from New York. Thank you.
HOBSON:All right, thanks.
Marketplace is on a mission.
We believe Main Street matters as much as Wall Street, economic news is made relevant and real through human stories, and a touch of humor helps enliven topics you might typically find…well, dull.
Through the signature style that only Marketplace can deliver, we’re on a mission to raise the economic intelligence of the country—but we don’t do it alone. We count on listeners and readers like you to keep this public service free and accessible to all. Will you become a partner in our mission today?

The City of Kelowna retained Urban Systems to complete the design for the second phase of Stuart Park—the city’s popular downtown urban waterfront park. The design included a waterfront promenade, sea wall with seating steps into Lake Okanagan, lighting, seating, signage, artwork and room for future temporary art exhibits. The project also restored more than 800 square meters of riparian habitat. We also coordinated the redesign to work with the construction of the new Kelowna Yacht Club Facility.

The Carolina Panthers have fired head coach Matt Rhule five games into the 2022 NFL season, according to multiple reports.
The team also parted ways with defensive coordinator Phil Snow on Monday, a few hours after the Rhule news was announced.
The Panthers have started out 1-4 under Rhule this year, with a pair of consecutive home losses to the Arizona Cardinals in Week 4 and to the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday afternoon.
The 37-15 loss to the 49ers in Week 5 was especially ugly and uninspiring. The Panthers never led in the game and were held to less than five yards per play for the second straight week.
The home losses, along with two five-win seasons in 2020 and 2021, sealed the former Baylor and Temple coach’s fate in the NFL.
Carolina will go with Steve Wilks as interim head coach. Wilks, the team’s defensive pass game coordinator and secondary coach, was the head coach of the Arizona Cardinals in 2018.
The Panthers play the Los Angeles Rams in Week 6 at SoFi Stadium.

Cutting Down on Calories Can Make you Live up to 100 Years
- Hits: 1999
16 April 2010
Calorie restriction can not only make you live up to 100 years but also keep you healthy throughout life, says a new research. The findings were published in the Friday edition of Science.
Scientists at Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis (WUSM–SL), University College London (UCL), and Andrus Gerontology Centre, University of Southern California (USC) report that calorie restriction influences the same handful of molecular pathways related to ageing in all the organisms studied – from yeast to rodents to humans.
In less complex organisms, restricting calories can double or even triple lifespan. It’s not yet clear just how much longer calorie restriction might help humans live, but those who practice the strict diet may hope to survive past 100 years, according to the study.
Study co–author Luigi Fontana is less interested in calorie restriction for longer life than in its ability to promote good health throughout life.
“The focus of my research is not really to extend lifespan to 120 or 130 years. Right now, the average lifespan in Western countries is about 80, but there are too many people who are only healthy until about age 50,” said Fontana.
“We want to use the discoveries about calorie restriction and other related genetic or pharmacological interventions to close that 30–year gap between lifespan and ‘healthspan’.”
“However, by extending a healthy lifestyle, average lifespan could increase up to 100 years of age,” Fontana added.
Fontana and co–authors write about how cutting calorie intake between 10% and 50% decreases the activity of pathways involving insulin–like growth factor (IGF–1), glucose and TOR (target of rapamycin), and considerably increases lifespan in animals.
“About 30% of the animals on calorie restriction die at an advanced age without any diseases normally related to ageing (such as cancer, cardiovascular disease and cognitive problems),” Fontana said.

This piece of finely tuned, hand-crafted, water-resistance workout equipment also sits at the top end of the rowing machine spectrum. Employing a water flywheel that helps to mimic the feel of rowing in actual water, the natural wood WaterRower Rowing Machine will bring you a smooth, yet challenging workout that is as tough as you want it to be. If rowing is one of the best exercises you can do for your body as far as natural motion with low to no-impact, then the WaterRower is one of the best machines to do it on.
The WaterRower Natural is handcrafted in solid ash and stained honey oak for consistency of color. The wood was chosen due to its marvelous engineering properties, especially its ability to absorb sound and vibration, which enhances the WaterRower's quiet performance and smooth operation. Ash, like all woods used in the construction of the WaterRower, is a premium hardwood with incredible longevity and dimensional stability. In addition, the wood is harvested from replenishable forests and is hand finished with Danish oil to provide a deep luster.
The resistance of your rowing machine impacts how it moves. Select from hydraulic and magnetic rowing resistance. Hydraulic rowers are typically more compact in size, while magnetic machines make little noise as they operate. Details like easy-to-reach tension knobs or buttons allow you to increase or decrease the intensity of your resistance as you train.
As far as “racing”, I said an air rowing machine is better because the Concept2 is the only model used for indoor rowing competitions, setting world records, and entering your actual scores online. It is because their monitor can calculate the drag factor of the flywheel in real time and accurately calculate distance and time. Small changes such as dust build up, air temperature, and humidity will not change the times between different machines because the drag factor is calculated every stroke.
Bring the experience and benefits of rowing on water with this professionally-built Stamina water rower machine. The incorporated water resistance in this exercise machine offers smoother and more consistent rowing but more importantly, just like rowing in an actual body of water, this workout machine is built to provide infinite resistance--harder and faster rowing motions cause increased resistance. To tailor the resistance according to your fitness goals, simply increase or decrease water level using the siphon included in the package. Moreover, the steel frame construction and rowing beam ensure durability for years while the sturdy, pivoting footplates with straps offer comfort and security. To help you keep track of your fitness progress, this home gym machine is also equipped with a multi-function monitor that tracks total strokes, strokes per minute, distance, time, and calories burned. Other features include: wide molded seat, textured and padded handles for better and comfort
No matter the resistance we set or the power we applied, the machine remains sturdy, centered, and even. We amped up the intensity for 2000m sprints and found that the C2 supports consistent effort in a way water resistance can’t. The machine assists in keeping your intensity uniform, because it stores up remaining energy in the spinning flywheel. Comments about the ride feel of both Concept 2s were noticeably brief. As one tester put it, “It’s unremarkable because it’s good,” and leaves you free to focus on the effort you’re putting into your workout.
Essentially, the water rower uses water as it's resistance and the air rower (click here to read our air rowing machine reviews) uses air resistance. Additionally, the resistance of the water gives a very similar feeling to actually rowing in the water. The rowing machines listed above all have fantastic rowing mechanisms that mimic the exact feeling of a rowing a boat.
The Apollo Pro 2 water rower is a commercial grade, natural wood rowing machine, perfect for group training or high-end home gyms. This rower’s water resistant design, meditative motion and integrity of construction sets it apart from its competitors. Handcrafted from the finest quality American Ash wrapped around a stabilising steel frame, this steadfast indoor rower offers a standout performance even in the harshest of fitness applications.
I was introduced to this rower when I joined Orange Theory Fitness four months ago. Since I started using the rower during my OTF sessions I have grown to love the overall workout this thing gives me. In fact, I loved it so much that I purchased the Waterrower Club for my home gym. The overall quality and construction is superb and I'm very satisfied with my purchase. I would highly recommend over any other home gym equipment available. One of the best features is how its so easy to stand up and move out of the way for storage. You can't do that with any treadmill or elliptical. This thing is amazing and worth every penny. Assembly was straightforward and took about 30-45 minutes. Solid, quality construction.
There are 4 main rowing machine types that are classed according to its utilized resistance mechanism. Having an exercise workout needs to have resistance against the movement in order to provide to the muscles and the cardiovascular system a good change. This can be provided by the rowing machine whenever you pull its handle and then slide back to the seat. Having low resistance works on the cardiovascular system can make you row fast easily. Having high resistance means that it provides you with the anaerobic session, working with the muscles harder, also having a slow stroke rate because of the harder pull.
Just reading the title will make you think that you are going to row a water vessel out in the rapids. But in this article we’re going to be talking about a different type of water rowing. This is a type of rowing machine that provides the most amazing total body workout among the cardio machine. The reason why it is a good option for you is because it will work on all of your body equally, from the upper part to the lower part, which may lead to amazing gains in all throughout your cardiovascular fitness. You do not need a boat to start rowing. All you need is this equipment and you are ready to go.
The WaterRower Classic is outfitted with a Series 4 performance monitor that's designed to balance technical sophistication with user-friendliness. The monitor--which includes six information and programming windows, six QuickSelection buttons, and three navigation buttons--displays your workout intensity, stroke rate, heart rate, zone bar, duration, and distance. Plus, the monitor is compatible with an optional heart rate chest strap and receiver, which helps you optimize your workout and achieve your exercise objectives.

The WaterRower Classic Rowing Machine is a work of art. But before you buy one just to hang it on the wall, the more important feature of course is that this rowing machine is a high-quality, durable, and effective piece of exercise equipment that will help you get in top fitness with ease and low-impact comfort. With a user weight capacity of 1,000 lbs, WaterRower has built the Classic Rowing Machine to take everything you can throw at it. No matter how intense your workouts are, you’re not going to hurt this machine. And it accommodates everyone from beginner rowers to experienced die-hards.
The main advantages of the water rower are that it has quiet operation; there is only little maintenance to do, the water only needs to be changed occasionally; many users love the whooshing sound of water in the tank; and its consistently smooth resistance at every stroke. Two disadvantages of this machine are it costs a lot than the air rower; and it tends to be larger in size compared to the other rowing machines.

The most awaited trailer of this season is out. Wethinks it’s high on special effects, but lacks the emotional aspect that Koi Mil Gaya and Krrish had
The third part of Rakesh Roshan’s science fiction series, Krrish 3 continues with the story of Rohit Mehra and his superhero son Krrish aka Hrithik Roshan and how they defeat the evil force, this time played by Vivek Oberoi.
The trailer of Roshan’s new opus starts with Rohit saying ‘Tumhare dhoop ki shaktiyon se milnewale raaz ab main samajh gaya hoon. Agar mera experiment kamyab ho gaya toh duniya ko ek nayi shuruwat milegi‘, pointing at Jadoo staring at him from a distance. And then comes the villainous being born to rule the world – Vivek Oberoi, who can unfortunately only be heard and not seen, saying in a voice oozing evil, ‘Kaal ki kaaynaat mein welcome!’
Hrithik aka Krrish impresses with a powerful ‘flying’ entry and looks determined to vanquish the evil; as his introductory line in the promo says: One man must battle like never before. Hrithik has been quite upbeat about Krrish 3, since it has fantastic graphics and special effects, all done at Shahrukh Khan’s Red Chillies SFX in Mumbai.
Talking of the superb buzz this long in the making sci-fi flick has generated, leading exhibitor-distributor Akshaye Rathi says, “They say Karan Johar’s films appeal to audiences from Bhatinda to Boston. Rakeshji’s Krrish 3 will have appeal from Malegaon to Mars! With VFX absolutely at par with the best standards in Hollywood, a superb story stunning action and Hrithik Roshan playing the protagonist, there’s nothing that can stop this film from becoming one of the biggest grosser in the history of Hindi cinema!”
Don’t be surprised if Roshan’s brilliant commercial sensibilities combined with Hrithik’s star power results in the biggest Diwali hit of 2013 in Krrish 3 and redefines Bollywood business. Take a look at the trailer and tell us what you think….

Wisconsin School's Nazi Prom Photo Sure To Go Over Well With College Admission Boards
Oh, those wacky kids today! Always on their phones, smoking their Juuls, buying a lot of unicorn-themed things ... and taking "Heil Hitler" prom photos. I guess!
Over the weekend, some students from Baraboo High School in Wisconsin tweeted a photo of dozens of boys in the class of 2019, at their Junior Prom, in a group photo, doing a Nazi salute -- a photo reportedly taken by a parent of one of the boys in the picture and reportedly posted to their own website that was filled with other pictures of the Baraboo High School prom (UPDATE: Said photographer is motorcycle photographer one Peter Gust, whose son is in the picture. He is former educator and Wisconsin Education Association Council regional director. Nice!) The tweet, first shared by Twitter user Carly Sidey, has since been deleted, and the account that posted it has gone private.
Gosh! I sure hope that no college admissions boards find out about this picture and who posed in it, and that this photo doesn't follow every single one of them around for the rest of their lives. I'd say "hope they don't want a political career," but it doesn't seem as though the Republican Party would have much of a problem with those optics these days.
While the school district has yet to issue an official response, Baraboo School District Administrator Lori Mueller issued a tweet saying that the picture is not "reflective" of their values.
I am sure she would like to think that. However, if you've got that many kids doing a Nazi salute, and one of their parents is taking the picture, you might want to take a moment and consider what values and beliefs your school district is actually encouraging in its student body and what kind of values and beliefs are endemic in your comunnity. It's not just that they thought it was OK to do this that's scary, but that they had no fear of repercussions, social or otherwise.
The same school district, by the way, had an issue a number of years ago when some students flew Confederate flags at their friends' funeral, insisting that they thought said flags represented only "hunting and fishing," "The Dukes Of Hazzard," and being rebels. Great job, Baraboo High School history department!
When VICE Contributor Jules Suzdaltsev posted about the picture on Twitter, he immediately received several messages from current and former students who said that this was indeed representative of the "educational values and beliefs" in the Baraboo School District.
I am being flooded with messages from students of this school about some of the guys in the group photo. It sound… https://t.co/HyxANjyuHq— Jules Suzdaltsev (@Jules Suzdaltsev) 1542006111.0
Am I surprised that a school official responded to kids yelling "White Power!" in the hallways by saying they couldn't do anything about it because "free speech?" Why no, I am not. I am not at all surprised by that. I heard the same thing myself back in school, and so did a lot of other people I know. Apparently it's a tried and true method for not having to do anything about this kind of shit.
Sounds like racism is not uncommon at this school. https://t.co/WJ9yuEVV8J— Jules Suzdaltsev (@Jules Suzdaltsev) 1542034389.0
Another student messaged him to give context to the photo and the parent who took it.
It's easy to think that as long as your school district doesn't go around explicitly advocating racism or anti-Semitism, that it's done its job as far as that kind of thing goes. But if they're not actively discouraging it, if they're not creating consequences for racism, anti-Semitism and other forms of bigotry when they see them happening, if they're not actively working to make sure kids from their school do not develop these beliefs, it is simply not enough. It is necessary, especially in this day and age where these beliefs are thriving on the internet and being embraced by people in power (*cough* Steve King *cough*), to be proactive.
Mueller tweeted that the district is looking to figure out "appropriate actions" in response to this, but if they're actually going to be effective, they need to go further than just giving these particular kids a few days of detention. They need to take a look at their curriculum and make sure they are including texts that will help students develop a healthy abhorrence of things like Sieg Heil salutes, and they need to look into the processes they have to respond to this kind of thing on a day-to-day basis.
In other words, they need to do their job and teach the damn children better.
UPDATE: Jordan Blue, the one kid in the picture who is not saluting has since sent a statement to Jules Suzdaltzev:
Good for you, Jordan Blue!
UPDATE 2: Photographer Peter Gust has issued a statement on the website where the pictures were initially hosted.
"Due malevolent behavior on the part of some in society; this page has been modified. It is too bad that there are those in society who can and do take the time to be jerks; knowingly and willingly to be jerks! The internet can be a wonderful tool but for some there is an overwhelming urge to destroy. The destruction may not be physical but instead it can be bullying that is intellectual or emotional. To anyone that was hurt I sincerely apologize.
To those who have harmed them, we as a society often ignore them I have chosen not to do that. YOU ARE JERKS! Grow up!
Oh yeah. Those jerks. Always destroying the fun of a good, wholesome... nazi salute with their bullying of... nazis?

By Chef Poul Andrias Ziska
Ingredients for langoustines:

35th anniversary edition of iconic Canadian film Lies My Father Told Me
On December 27th, VisionTV will present the world premiere television broadcast of the newly restored film Lies my Father Told Me followed by Lies, a behind-the-scenes, making of the Canadian classic.
“Three decades after it was filmed on location in Montreal, Lies My Father Told Me remains the quintessential Canadian film about a boy’s evolving view of the world, the vagaries of human nature and the Jewish immigrant experience in Canada.” – Sheldon Kirshner, Canadian Jewish News
“The film packs as much of a punch today – maybe more – as in 1975… a Canadian classic.” – Bill Brownstein, Montreal Gazette
Set in Montreal’s Jewish immigrant community in the 1920s, Lies My Father Told Me is told through the eyes of 7-year-old David (Jeffrey Lynas) who is caught between the traditional Jewish values of his grandfather and the material ambitions of his parents.
David lives with his social-climbing father (Len Birman), dutiful mother (Marilyn Lightstone), and his religious peddler grandfather, Zaida (Yossi Yadin). While David’s father rejects old traditions and dreams of striking it rich with cockamamie inventions, Zaida is concerned with teaching David about the world’s wonders through the eyes of Orthodox Judaism. Every Sunday, David and Zaida’s relationship grows stronger as they travel Montreal’s alleyways together selling their wares. One day, David wakes for their weekly excursion only to learn from his father that Zaida has gone, never to return …a “lie” the young boy can never forgive.”
One of Canada’s most respected actresses and multi-media artists, Marilyn Lightstone stars as Annie Herman in Lies my Father Told Me and won Best Film Actress from both ACTRA and the Canadian Film Awards (today’s’ Genies) for her portrayal of the quintessential Jewish wife and mother. It was her first film. Her next feature was In Praise of Older Women for which she won another Canadian Film Award for Best Supporting Actress. Marilyn is renowned for her iconic voice and moving performances on stage, screen, and television including her legendary role as Ms. Stacey in the mini-series Anne of Green Gables and Road to Avonlea. Marilyn also spends much of her time in her rooftop studio, working with paint and photography, producing several exhibitions a year. She has authored a novel, Rogues and Vagabonds, and written a collection of songs entitled Miss Lightstone Sings. Her universal song for the holiday season “The Light Shines All Over the World” can currently be heard on The New Classical 96.3 FM, English Canada’s only all-classical radio station where Marilyn is also the host of Nocturne which airs nightly from 11pm – 1am ET. marilynlightstone.com
Lies My Father Told Me was nominated for an Oscar for Best Original Screenplay, won the 1976 Golden Globe for Best Foreign Film and took six 1976 Canadian Film Awards.
The film was directed by Academy Award-winning Czech filmmaker Ján Kadár (The Shop on Main Street) and is based on the story by Ted Allan, who also was the screenwriter and appears in the film as a revolutionary tailor.

Ford Motor Co. in Dearborn and Churchill Downs racetrack in Kentucky have announced the start of a multiyear relationship establishing the automaker as the partner of the racetrack and the Kentucky Derby.
“With Louisville Assembly Plant and Kentucky Truck Plant practically in the backyard of Churchill Downs, Ford’s participation in this uniquely American tradition is long overdue,” says Matt Van Dyke, marketing director for Ford. “The Kentucky Derby is the longest-running sporting event in the United States, and one of the most iconic celebrations of the year.”
The new 2020 Ford F-Series Super Duty will serve as the featured vehicle of the 146th Kentucky Derby, to be run on Saturday, May 2.
“Ford is such a big part of the Louisville community that this new partnership is a natural fit,” says Kevin Flanery, president of the racetrack. “Ford vehicles power so much of our operations at Churchill Downs, and many of our breeders rely on Ford Super Duty trucks to transport their precious cargo.”
Ford will host special access for FordPass Rewards members and celebrations for veterans and active military personnel throughout the Derby week at the racetrack. Each Kentucky Oaks and Derby horse owner also will receive a Ford Explorer to use during the event. Ford also will display lineups including the new 2020 Ford F-Series Super Duty that recently began production at the Kentucky Truck Plant and the all-new 2020 Ford Escape that’s built at the Louisville Assembly Plant.
“Our employees here in Louisville are proud to be building products that play an integral role in our customers’ lives, and now for the great American tradition that is the Kentucky Derby,” says Joe Bobnar, director of manufacturing for Louisville Assembly Plant and Kentucky Truck Plant. “This partnership means something special to our thousands of dedicated employees, retirees, and dealers in the Louisville community.”
Ford will host a Ford Day during the 2020 racing season, offering its employees and their guests free admission to a race day.

In Islamabad, a specialized court established under the Official Secrets Act has granted an extension of judicial remand for Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan and the party’s Vice Chairman Shah Mahmood Qureshi until September 26 in connection with the cipher case.
Imran Khan has been held in Attock jail since August 5 following his conviction in the Toshakhana case. His sentence was temporarily suspended by the Islamabad High Court (IHC), which directed authorities to release him from custody.
Subsequently, the Federal Investigation Agency detained him in relation to the cipher case under charges of violating the Official Secrets Act.
Shah Mahmood Qureshi was also arrested in the same case on August 19 at his residence in Islamabad.
Special Judge Abul Hasnat Zulqarnain presided over the cipher case proceedings at Attock jail, following a notification from the law ministry aimed at maintaining public order.
During the hearing, the prosecution requested an extension of PTI Chief Imran Khan’s remand, which was contested by PTI lawyers who deemed Khan’s detention unnecessary. After hearing arguments, the judge decided to extend Khan’s remand until September 26.
Additionally, the judge considered the FIA’s plea for an extension in Shah Mahmood Qureshi’s remand and granted the extension while the PTI vice president was brought to court in handcuffs.
Last month, the Federal Investigation Agency initiated another case against former Prime Minister Imran Khan, accusing him of mishandling a US cipher, which he had previously presented as evidence of Washington’s involvement in his removal.

Under Coach Adam Levine, Palisades’ Reign Looks Far from Over
It’s hard to imagine a more successful start to a coaching tenure than the one Adam Levine has experienced at Palisades High.
Levine has guided the girls basketball team to back-to-back City titles and two straight 26-win seasons, and with all but one player returning next year he could be building a dynasty.
“The only player graduating is Jane [Nwaba] and as great and as valuable as she is we could be really good again next year,” Levine said. “Ivy Scott, who missed all of last year with an ACL injury, continues to get better. Add another center [Janelly Portillo] who was out most of this year, Taylor and Elise Arnold making a freshman- to-sophomore jump, and full summer and fall to get better… the sky is the limit with this group.”
Levine praised his assistant coaches for the squad’s preparation both mentally and physically: “Don Burke has been a CIF-winning head coach his whole career and has really helped make me a better coach. And Al Mont, who joined our staff this year, has also been a head coach and coached on CIF championship teams.”

MoH plans to expand campaign to other new groups
KUWAIT CITY, March 24: The number of people registered on the vaccination platform to receive the vaccine against ‘Covid-19’ since the beginning of the campaign until now has approached one million — citizens and residents, reports Al-Jarida daily. The daily, quoting health sources, pointed out the number of people who have received the vaccine in Kuwait so far is about half a million people citizens and residents. The sources added the Ministry of Health plans to expand the vaccination campaign during the next few days to other new groups, including all personnel working in cooperative societies, administrators and others, in addition to those working in mosques, including imams, muezzins and others.
The sources explained the ministry will soon form medical teams to visit their workplaces, noting that the ministry’s strategy is to work in two directions, the first to receive citizens and residents in the various vaccination centers that have been set up in all regions of Kuwait, whether the Kuwait Vaccination Center in the Fairgrounds or other centers to receive people for vaccination in clinics designated for this, and the second trend is to go out to specific groups to be vaccinated in their workplaces and sites, pointing out that these medical teams will start their work within days. The sources pointed out that this step will be launched as soon as the quantities of the vaccine arrive in the country during the next few days, with the aim of facilitating and accelerating the vaccination process.
The sources stressed the importance of vaccination during the current and coming period, especially in light of the significant increase in the number of deaths, infections and people needing intensive care, whether the elderly or young people or even children and young people, during the past two months.
The sources warned of the increasing number of infections among children and young people, and called on the parents to follow up on their children, urging them to wear the face masks, and adhering to health requirements and taking precautionary measures when going out, stressing the importance of caution, and not being complacent during the first stage.

Moringa seeds are large and circular-shaped and grow inside the lengthy pods of the Moringa oleifera tree. Moringa seed
pods can reach well over a foot in length and each pod can provide over a dozen large Moringa seeds.
Unlike the fast-growing leaves of the Moringa oleifera tree, Moringa seed pods do not grow back every few months.
Moringa trees produce seed pods on an annual basis, much like other similar species in the
plant kingdom. And as is the case with other healing plants, it is always worth the wait for Moringa trees to
produce their seed pods.
Moringa Oleifera Seed Extract

Dairy-free. It’s not so bad. But that depends on the day.
We’ve been dairy-free going on 5 months now.
If you’re new to the blog, we found out my son has a dairy allergy, and since I’m breastfeeding that means no dairy for this mama. Thankfully, we found out fairly early and fingers crossed, he will outgrow this.
I was seriously depressed at the thought of taking dairy out of my diet, but it’s getting easier every day. What I didn’t expect was this to be such an emotional issue. Some days, I get so frustrated; it can completely put me in a funk for the day. Some days, I make mistakes then worry I’ve hurt my little guy.
Dining out is especially difficult. You have to ask a million questions. Is the bun buttered? Does the bread have milk or butter baked in or brushed on top? No croutons or cheese on my salad, please! Waiters tend to not know all the ingredients included in each item and honestly, many don’t seem to care to find out. Guess I can’t blame them. Unfortunately, it’s easiest to find options I can eat at chains as their menus are standard and ingredients can be found online. Eating out just isn’t as fun as it used to be.
The benefit of dairy-free? If you’re needing help losing baby weight or weight in general, cut out dairy!!! Unfortunately for me, it’s also causing some health concerns. For the first time in my life, I’m having trouble keeping weight on. Between breastfeeding and no dairy, it’s taking a toll on my body. (Yeah, I’ll hate myself for complaining about this one day.)
One of the initial struggles was knowing what to buy at the grocery store. It was overwhelming to start reading every single label for hidden dairy items. I still read a lot of labels but know some of the tricks.
- Most labels list potential allergens such as “This product contains: soy, wheat, milk”. Check this before reading through the list of ingredients.
- “May contain traces of milk” – this is a vague term and basically a CYA for companies. Food with this notation could have been made on equipment that had a milk product but was sanitized before the dairy-free product was made. It can also mean that workers at the factory where it was made are allowed to eat dairy items in their lunches. We disregard this warning and have had no issues.
- Whey is dairy and is a common ingredient. Check chips and vinaigrettes for this one!
- Dairy-free whipped topping and creamer? Yeah, they’re not dairy-free. Go figure!
- Anything noted “Vegan” is dairy-free.
- Casein/caseinate is a dairy product.
- Butter – many people (especially restaurant) tend to forget this is a dairy item.
- Margarine – most include dairy, but not all
- Mayonnaise – most are not dairy, but lots of people think it is.
For anyone else on this journey, here are my favorite grocery items. Many of them are chocolate 🙂 Disclaimer – I eat items that “may contain trace amounts of dairy.”
Blue Diamond Almond Milk – my go-to substitute for recipes. I tend to buy the unsweetened but the vanilla is an extra special treat with cereal.
Silk Dark Chocolate Almond Milk – excellent cold or warmed up for hot chocolate
Earth Balance Natural Buttery Spread – my go-to for a spreadable butter replacement
Earth Balance Vegan Buttery Sticks – works well for cooking but I’m not sold on using it as a baking replacement. I’ll keep trying.
Ghirardelli Double Chocolate Brownies – my, oh my…delicious! Try this with pumpkin.
Trader Joe’s Light Coconut Milk – I haven’t really used this as a substitute but am making more recipes that would typically use coconut milk.
Attune Dark Chocolate Probiotic Bars – great nutritional substitute and oh, so yummy. Look for them in the yogurt section.
Ghirardelli Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips – good for baking and snacking
Tofutti Sour Cream and Cream Cheese – certainly not the real thing but does the trick
So Delicious Vanilla Coconut Milk Ice Cream Sandwiches – taste and texture are spot on
Justin’s Peanut Butter Cups – gosh darn, these are awesome!
Papa John’s Pizza – no cheese of course! The garlic dipping sauce is dairy-free too!
Chik-Fil-A – Grilled Chicken Sandwich, waffle fries, Roasted Honey BBQ sauce, Chik-Fil-A sauce, Polynesian, and I think a few others are dairy-free
There are a few items that I never would have thought were dairy-free. Unfortunately, they are totally processed snacks and for some reason, I eat more of these items since going dairy-free. Maybe because they are easy to grab and now that I know they’re safe for me to eat, I don’t have to check a gazillion labels??
Yeah, yeah…don’t judge.
Oreos – now a permanent staple in my pantry
A GREAT reference is Go Dairy Free. Alisa has tons of information and has an exhaustive list of restaurant options.
KellyMom – well, really it’s just a great source for everything about breastfeeding
Where are we now?
So, the doc said to try dairy again at 6 months. We’re there. I’m totally scared. I had a tiny piece of chocolate one night with no repercussions. Last night, I made cookies with dairy-free butter but milk chocolate chips. Between the dough and the cookies, it was probably somewhere around six cookies (oops!). Today? No issues.
Are we over it? Only time will tell. I’m not ready to go order a cheeseburger.
We’ve also just started solids. This means really spacing things out so we can find the culprit of any potential issues.
Dairy-free. It’s not so bad, but certainly not easy.
This guy makes it worth it!

Congo ebola epidemic becomes second worst outbreak everRita Dune
Congo ebola epidemic becomes second worst outbreak ever
There are now 1,009 reported cases of the disease, with the number of fatalities having climbed to 629.
The ebola epidemic crippling parts of the Democratic Republic of Congo has now exceeded 1,000 cases, making it the second worst outbreak in history.
In a statement, the Congolese health ministry revealed that the total number affected stood at 1,009, with the numbers of people killed having climbed to 629.
New technologies including a trial vaccine, experimental treatments and mobile units for looking after patients had raised hopes that medics would be better equipped to cope, but security issues have hampered the response.
Some centres set up to treat patients have been attacked by armed assailants
Five centres set up to treat those with the disease have been attacked since last month, sometimes by armed assailants, which forced a French medical charity to suspend its activities in eastern areas that are most badly affected.
Last December, Sky News visited a similar centre set up in the city of Beni, where 200 health workers were tasked with treating those admitted.
They erected a series of innovative, air-conditioned tents to house and treat the most serious cases, but there is no cure for the disease, which kills more than half of those it infects.
Efforts are ongoing to contain the spread of the viral disease
It has since become the second deadliest ebola outbreak of all-time, behind an unprecedented crisis in West Africa that killed more than 11,000 people between 2013 and 2016.
There are fears that the Congo outbreak could still spread further, with authorities confirming a case last week in the northeastern city of Bunia, which is home to almost one million people.
The disease, which causes severe vomiting, diarrhoea and bleeding, is thought to be able to move across vast distances due to it being carried by bats.
It has since become the second deadliest ebola outbreak ever
Large gaps between outbreaks can be explained by the likelihood that ebola-carrying bats move around and will only occasionally come into the kind of contact with people that leads to infection.
But as they are extremely social animals, the potential for the disease to spread from bat to bat – and potentially to other animals that could come into contact with humans – is very high.
