“We hear from individuals again and again because they came across the individual through a hook-up software. that they’ll perhaps not report physical violence to police”
11 social media organizations that facilitate dating and intimate hook-ups вЂ” including popular apps for gay males Grindr, Scruff, and Jack’d вЂ” have joined up with an ad campaign to cut back violent assaults on LGBT those who meet utilizing social networking.
“We hear from individuals again and again that they’ll perhaps not report physical violence to authorities since they came across the individual by way of a hook-up application,” Sharon Stapel, executive manager for the Anti-Violence Project (AVP), told BuzzFeed Information. AVP is administering the campaign.
The advertisements are showing up on displays throughout ny State, with pop-ups on mobile apps and advertising advertisements on websites online, supplying advice on how to avoid dangerous situations and techniques to report physical physical violence to private sources. “the way in which individuals meet is evolving,” said Stapel, “but violence continues to be occurring. You want to achieve individuals where physical physical violence is happening, and that’s online.”
The incidents this year consist of a person whom allegedly intimately assaulted and robbed another guy he came across on Grindr in Philadelphia. In-may, a guy allegedly bashed another guy by having a hammer after fulfilling him through Grindr near Seattle. Of late, a combined team of males presumably robbed a person at gunpoint in a Manhattan apartment a couple of weeks ago after meeting on Badoo.com. But victims that are manyn’t report their attacks.
“Intercourse it self is a stigmatized subject, which inhibits us from having effective conversations in regards to the form of sex people are having via these social apps,” Rentboy.com’s Chief Working Officer Hawk Kinkaid told BuzzFeed Information. Kinkaid said, “When you compound this commonly provided stigma with all the vulnerability marriagemindedpeoplemeet essential to expose a work of sexual assault, reporting violence turns into a daunting possibility for a person.”
Organizations have already been wanting to provide discounts that are large the advertisements, stated Stapel. Others participating include Backpage, BGLlive, GROWLr, Hornet, Manhunt, MISTER, and VGL. She included, “It is with in their attention to de-stigmatize online hook-ups.”
Grindr offered a declaration to BuzzFeed Information to describe the business’s involvement noting, “Grindr is invested in the safety and health its users and therefore is definitely trying to make use of great companies such as the Anti-Violence venture.”
Grindr reported on average 109 ticks per week towards the security recommendations web site in August, in line with the task’s initial information, and Rentboy.com provides 7,000 impressions for the advertisements each day.
Funded with a $35,525 grant through the ny state dept. of wellness, the “For a Safe Time” campaign directs users to advice on avoiding physical violence, such as for instance meeting in public places, and links to a reporting form that is confidential. The campaign also comes with a 24-hour telephone hotline that is bilingual.
Rentboy.com’s Kinkaid stated the Anti-Violence venture advertisement campaign “resonates with your audience since these are non-judgmental initiatives,” and it also provides “a space that is safe report and look for take care of acts of violence.”
Likewise, “Grindr guys are widely used to on-demand solutions,” in line with the organization’s declaration. “Gaining access to information on great initiatives through the application isn’t any different.”
Initial information regarding the task, which started in belated summer time and can carry on through show the number of calls to the hotline and visits to the Anti-Violence project website have spiked december. Anti-Violence Project officials told BuzzFeed Information that AVP continues to gauge the leads to see whether the system is a great investment and can detail their findings in a written report the following year.
The task happens to be restricted to users in nyc, but, Stapel offered, “we might love other wellness divisions to sponsor projects similar to this inside their state.”
Dominic Holden is just a governmental reporter for BuzzFeed Information and it is situated in nyc.

Rapper and fashion designer Kanye West has suggested that he will run for president in 2024 and wants Donald Trump to be his running mate. The artist, who goes by the name Yeh, posted a series of videos on his Twitter account late Thursday with the logo “Yeh 24”. He then uploaded a video of himself talking about his recent meeting with the former Republican president in Florida.
“I think the thing that upset Trump the most (was) I asked him to be my vice president,” West, 45, said. West said, “Trump basically started yelling at me across the table, telling me I was going to lose.” “I was like, wait Trump, you’re talking to Yeh.”
Trump, who sought to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election in which he lost to Democratic incumbent Joe Biden, announced on November 15 that he would run again in 2024. Trump’s office did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Yeh’s statements. ,

The artist published two days ago that he had visited Trump at his luxurious residence Mar-a-Lago in Florida. “I can’t believe I made President Trump wait,” he posted on Twitter. “How do you think he reacted when I asked him to be my running mate in 2024?”
It was unclear whether the rapper was serious about his intentions, or if he was seeking publicity after being criticized for posting anti-Semitic comments on Instagram and Twitter. This is not the first time West has entered politics. He ran for president in 2020, but received less than 70,000 votes, placing seventh.

In October, German sportswear giant Adidas severed its lucrative relationship with West after the star made anti-Semitic remarks. Adidas later said that the end of its business relationship with West, with whom he designed the hit “Yeezy” line, had forced the firm to halve its 2022 net income forecast.
Parisian fashion house Balenciaga and US-based Gap have also cut ties with West, who appeared at a Paris fashion show last month wearing a “White Lives Matter” T-shirt, protesting against the racial equality movement. Black Lives Matter.


Gareth Barry gets underrated... he's one of the best English players ever, says Everton manager Roberto Martinez
- Everton used their experience to overcome Manchester City at Goodison
- Roberto Martinez was delighted with Gareth Barry's role in the 2-1 victory
- Spaniard says youngsters at the club are benefiting from his leadership
- Martinez won his second game against City, after winning the FA Cup final
Everton manager Roberto Martinez has hailed Gareth Barry as 'one of the best English players ever' after the midfielder delivered a masterclass in his side's 2-1 Capital One Cup semi-final first leg victory over Manchester City.
Romelu Lukaku's late header, just minutes after Jesus Navas' first goal since September 2014 had cancelled out Ramiro Funes Mori's opener, gave the hosts a slender advantage heading to the Etihad Stadium in three weeks.
Barry provided the cross for Lukaku to put the Toffees back in front just two minutes and six seconds after being pegged back, and Martinez typically lauded the 34-year-old after the win at Goodison Park.
Everton midfielder Gareth Barry has been hailed as 'one of the best English players ever' by Roberto Martinez
Toffees manager Martinez has praised Barry's level of professionalism after his side beat Manchester City
'Gareth Barry is one of those players that gets underrated,' Martinez said. 'For me the big reason why we have so many effective young players is there are leaders in the mould of Gareth Barry.
'I have never seen a player with the incredible professionalism, standards and so level-headed as Gareth Barry. For me he is one of the best English players ever. He could end up with 600 Premier League appearances this season.
'The way he behaves and the way he plays you can build a team around him. It's no coincidence that we have so many players being successful at our football club through the presence of someone like that.'
Martinez was full of praise for the manner in which his side controlled possession in the closing stages, and the former Wigan manager feels his side are now learning from the mistakes that have disrupted the flow to their season up to this point.

'We had to face a really good team and we carried on our defensive intensity. We played eye-to-eye against a very good Manchester City side and after conceding that goal on a really good counter attack, the winning mentality we showed to get that [winning] goal was really impressive.
'That character we showed tonight was a big difference. We showed how far we have come since August. It shows what we have got in the dressing room.
'We are not getting carried away. We know we have a huge challenge in front of us and are looking forward to the second leg but the performance means more than just a win in the semi-final of the League Cup.'
Blues striker Romelu Lukaku gets on the end of Barry's pinpoint delivery to head in the first-leg winner
The 22-year-old initially recovered but was forced off with an ankle problem and replaced by Arouna Kone
Seamus Coleman is set to be out for the next month
Everton were forced to reshuffle at the break after the injured Tom Cleverley was replaced by Leon Osman and - after Lukaku was withdrawn - the Blues ended the game with 10 men with full-back Seamus Coleman hobbling off with a calf strain that will rule him out for up to a month.
'Romelu had a knock on his ankle. We are going to assess him,' Martinez added. 'I don't know if he will be available for the weekend (the FA Cup tie against Dagenham & Redbridge) but I don't think it is too serious.
'Tom and Seamus are very similar, Seamus with his calf is probably the most serious, those things are between three to four weeks.'
Meanwhile, Barry believes the side can head to the Etihad fully confident of reaching Wembley for the first time since 1984 in this competition.
'The way we played we probably have gone off disappointed to be only one goal to the good but it's important we came away with a victory. We've got to go to the Etihad with confidence now.
Martinez was delighted with the manner his side good showed character in reacting so soon after conceding
Barry believes Everton will need to score at the Etihad in the second leg given the qualities City possess
'We needed to use our crowd as an advantage. It's good playing under the lights here at Goodison and we got the crowd off their feet at times. It's only half-time in the tie and we now have a tough game at the Etihad.
'We go there knowing we probably need to score a goal…it's going to be that sort of game as Manchester City have great players who can score at any time. So we've got to have that positive attitude going there knowing that we need to score.'

Aston Martin’s first-ever SUV will officially be called the DBX, the automaker announced mid-November, and will put the thing into production not long from now, with prototypes already undergoing real-world testing.
The company shared a video of the truck – which gets its name from Aston Martin’s concept car SUV – getting covered in dirt while taking on a rally stage in the Welsh countryside, and we must say it actually looks good doing it.
The DBX differs from the concept quite a bit. Two more doors have been added for practicality, while the roofline has been lifted to actually facilitate some headroom and visibility.
The vehicle is high-riding but doesn’t appear to be extremely tall, which gives it more of a wagon look. The taillights have been swapped out for a more circular element, while the trademark Aston Martin grille remains true to the brand.
Like rival high-end SUV manufacturers, Aston Martin felt the need to take the DBX prototype to places owners would probably never drive them in real life.
While competitors have dumped off trucks in the Antarctic and the Middle Eastern desert, Aston Martin plans to prove it’s building a true sports utility vehicle by going to the same sort of extremes, as well as for a lap around the Nurburgring race track.
Previous reports suggested the DBX might be called the “Varekai,” but now it seems more likely Aston Martin could stick that name on a mid-engined baby-Valkyrie. The DBX is scheduled to launch in the fourth quarter of 2019.

I get a bearing noise from the end, almost like its the front bearing constantly growling, but not too loud. When I go slightly to the left on the highway around 50-60 mph, I will get a slight metallic/grinding sound. Going back to the right stops it. I can tell the rear is making noise but not sure on which side. Won't really be able to jack it up and check it for a week or two but have ordered one bearing to throw into whatever side it is. Any ideas? I cannot remember how the right/left noise goes towards parts to repair.

I had my suspicions about this and now I know that I was correct. By living here in the desert where we have had a particularly nice winter, we miss some of seasonal symbolism of Easter. I visited my old homeland in Indiana last week where rebirth was evident. Although I had the coldest day of my winter there, family and friends I visited were speaking in cheerful, optimistic tones about the end of winter finally coming and the joy of warm spring days.
Signs of resurrection were all around. Students were wearing shorts, grass was being cut for the first time, tulips were blooming everywhere and the garden shops were doing a brisk business. The most powerful witnesses of resurrection were the wonderful hardwood forests where I spent so much time when I was young. Fresh green leaves were sprouting from branches gone too long bare and the sun sifted through the branches, splashed by the vivid colors of Dogwood and Redbud trees.
As we start closing up the house and turning on the air conditioning, back east the windows are flung open, as if the houses themselves are taking their first breath of fresh air in a long time.
The Christian Feast of Easter is scripturally linked to Passover, the celebration of the release of the Children of Israel from the Egyptian captivity. Passover begins on the 15th day of Nisan on the Hebrew calendar. Nisan is the first month of the ecclesiastical year when the creation of the world is remembered.
It might not be as obvious in Southern Hemisphere, or to those of us who live here in the Valley of the Sun, but for those who live in cold winters of short days, spring is about rebirth and all the forces of nature proclaim that life has triumphed over death and, as the days lengthen, light has overcome the darkness.
If we contain Easter to historical events of the first century, even in its spiritual and supernatural context, we are selling ourselves short. In a far larger sense, Easter is about new and transformed life that prevails against the darker forces of our existence, and we are called to participate in it.
Scripturally there are two very different visions of how and when the new creation, or to use more familiar biblical language, the Kingdom of God will become part of human existence. In 1st Thessalonians, St. Paul assures those who are anxious about the deaths of loved ones before the return of Jesus, that the honored dead will be the first to greet the coming of the kingdom. Jesus will return to praise the faithful for a job well done.
In sharp contrast to Paul’s pastoral image, John of Patmos wrote in Revelation of a violent cosmic conflict in which those who have failed to carry out the will of God will be punished for their failure.
The reformer, Martin Luther felt that Revelation was an inferior work and, along with others, argued for its removal from the New Testament canon. He wrote that Revelation was “neither apostolic nor prophetic.”
Revelation is certainly more sensational, and given the way violence is accepted and glorified in our culture, it is no wonder that there is such an obsession with John’s strange visions. I, however, prefer to see the kingdom of God and the new creation in the sprouting of the trees, the blooming of spring flowers and the little resurrections that I see around me every day.

Freewheeling down Ait Mansour in Morocco [08:44]
I remember standing on my pedals freewheeling down the gorge at Ait Mansour from Trafroute on the Atlas Descent Bike Trip. The sun was climbing into the sky, but there was still just enough contrast in the morning light to allow us to pickout the abandoned Berber village perched on the cliff at the head of the valley. The sound of our tyres crunching over the gravel echoed more and more as we descended and the sheer sides of the gorge rose around us. It is a cycle I could take a thousand times and never be bored.

On the evening of March 16, Tahoe Group announced that Huang Qisen, the company’s chairman and general manager, was assisting relevant authorities in the investigation. At present, the company’s various business activities are normal, and the company also understands that the chairman can participate in corporate operation decisions in an appropriate way in the near future.
Tahoe said that the emergency plan has been launched, and the co-presidents Ge Yong and Wang Jinggang are in charge of the company’s production and operation. Both of them are endogenous senior managers of Tahoe Group.
Later that day, Tahoe Group held a media briefing. Ge Yong said at the scene that Tahoe is currently normal and has had dual co-presidents since 2019. Tahoe encountered a liquidity crisis in 2020. It was the first to call for guaranteed delivery, and the first to declare that it would never lie flat.
In 2021, all 55 projects will resume work, and more than 3,000 houses will be delivered. At the beginning of the year, we analyzed Tahoe’s situation and formulated core goals. This year, the first is to resume production and ensure delivery. Do not pursue scale, be small and beautiful.
“It’s really sudden, but as a listed company, there were already institutional arrangements two years ago, and we have the confidence to deal with the crisis.”
However, Tahoe did not make a clear statement on why Huang Qisen assisted in the investigation.

The Washington state Senate approved a bill Tuesday that would set standards for police tactics and equipment statewide, in part banning chokeholds, neck restraints, and no-knock warrants.
The Senate amended the bill, so it will now go back to the House of Representatives so it can consider the amendments.
House Bill 1054 would set limitations on military equipment, use of tear gas, and vehicular pursuits. It’s one of the major pieces of legislation up for consideration this session with roots in last year’s resounding calls for racial justice and police reform.
“The point of this legislation is to start placing appropriate limits on tactics and equipment used by police that are putting Black lives and the lives of all Washingtonians at risk,” Sakara Remmu of the Washington Black Lives Matter Alliance said in testimony last month.
The measure has been altered at several points since it was initially introduced. Senators debated amendments and final passage of the bill for about two hours Tuesday.
In its current form, the bill:
- Bans law enforcement officers from using chokeholds and neck restraints.
- Bans no-knock warrants.
- Limits the use of tear gas, in part specifying it can’t be used unless necessary to alleviate the risk of serious harm from a riot inside a correctional, jail, or detention facility; a barricaded subject; or a hostage situation.
- Bans agencies from acquiring some military equipment and lays out what equipment is banned.
- Limits when officers can engage in vehicular pursuits and fire at moving vehicles.
- Requires officers to display their name or other identifiable information.
- Requires a work group to develop a model policy for training and using police dogs.
Elements of the bill continued to draw criticism from law enforcement groups at a public hearing last month. The Washington Council of Police and Sheriffs, for example, objected to the absolute ban on neck restraints. The Washington Association of Sheriffs & Police Chiefs also objected to the total ban on neck restraints and chokeholds and to language related to vehicular pursuits. However, the Washington Fraternal Order of Police supports the bill.
“The days of saying no and that we ask people to trust us and listen to us because we’re the professionals are gone,” Marco Monteblanco with the Fraternal Order of Police said in a hearing last month. “I also recognize the hesitancy from our stakeholder partners with specific changes. Throughout the history there has been changes, there’s been evolutions within policing, and this is the same thing today.”
Senators on Tuesday approved a floor amendment from Sen. Keith Wagoner, R-Sedro Woolley, that would allow law enforcement agencies to keep acquiring and using mine-resistant ambush protected vehicles, which would’ve previously been banned under the bill.
The latest version also includes several changes to the section on vehicular pursuits. Additional floor amendments aimed at that same section of the bill were rejected Tuesday.
The amended bill ultimately passed out of the Senate on a 27-22 vote.
The vote was largely along party lines, with Democrats in support and Republicans in opposition. However, a few Democrats voted against the bill: Sen. Steve Hobbs of Lake Stevens, Sen. Kevin Van De Wege of Sequim, and Sen. Tim Sheldon of Potlatch.

|What you eat has a major impact on the health of your teeth. If you want strong, healthy tooth enamel, there are some foods that you'll want to minimize in your diet or avoid completely. These are some of the biggest concerns.
Citrus FruitsCitrus fruits like oranges and grapefruits are highly acidic, so when it comes to keeping the enamel healthy, they are bad news. The citric acid will wear away at your enamel with time, weakening the teeth and making them vulnerable to decay.
IceIf you have a habit of chewing on ice, it may be only a matter of time before you damage your enamel. Chewing on hard substances can cause the enamel to crack or chip, which may lead to a dental emergency.
Dried FruitDried fruit is a nightmare for the enamel. These sticky substances can cling to your teeth, and they tend to stick around much longer than other foods. This gives them easy access to feed oral bacteria that will produce acids to attack the enamel.
Potato ChipsPotato chips are a salty, delicious snack, but they aren't good for your enamel. They are filled with starch, which can get trapped in between the teeth and serve as a good food source for bacteria. If you do choose to indulge in potato chips, take care to brush your teeth and floss regularly to remove excess debris.
BreadBread is another food that can damage the enamel, as it is loaded with starch. Your saliva will break the starch into a sugary substance that sticks onto the crevices of the teeth. This can wear away at the enamel and eventually cause cavities. If you do feel that you can't live without bread, it is always wise to choose whole wheat options over white varieties.
A healthy diet is one way to maintain a healthy mouth, but regular dental visits are also important. Call us today to set up your next appointment.

This week, the entertainment world has been buzzing about the impending sequel of Suicide Squad. Even though the next instalment of the bad-guy epic isn't on the official calendar of DC Comics releases, Warner Bros. has officially begun courting a director and breaking ground on the project. With so much up in the air, it's easy to wonder what we do know about the sequel. We did some digging and scraped together as much confirmed and speculative information as we possibly could.
1. Mel Gibson May Direct
Although David Ayer wrote and directed the first film, it seems Warner Bros. may be veering in a different direction for round two. The studio is reportedly courting Mel Gibson for the job, but Daniel Espinosa (who just directed that intense alien thriller Life, which stars Jake Gyllenhaal and Ryan Reynolds) is also in the running.
2. David Ayer Could Potentially Return in Some Capacity
Even if Ayer doesn't direct, he seems to have a lot to say about the sequel. Back in March 2016, The Wrap inadvertently confirmed the sequel during a seemingly innocuous news report. As almost an afterthought, the site mentioned that Suicide Squad 2 was already on Ayer's 2017 schedule. It's worth noting that Ayer is tied up with an all-female DC Comics villain movie starring Margot Robbie, called Gotham City Sirens. That said, he could still co-write or contribute to this film in a smaller way.
3. Will Smith Will Probably Be in It Once Again
The aforementioned report from The Wrap also mentioned that Suicide Squad's sequel was on Will Smith's schedule as well. Considering he was one of the biggest stars attached to the first film, it would make sense that Warner Bros. would want him to return!
4. It Could Be Rated R
In Spring 2016, David Ayer talked about the sequel with MTV News. While the studio definitely aimed for a PG-13 rating on the first one, the second one is up in the air. Ayer remarked that an R stamp (15 or 18 in the UK) "would be worth lobbying for." In light of the runaway success of 2016's Deadpool, which made billions of dollars and became one of the most successful R-rated films of all time. With numbers like that, an R-Rated Suicide Squad sequel sounds pretty appealing.
5. Jay Hernandez May Not Be Gone Forever
Even though El Diablo goes out with a pretty epic blaze of glory in the first film, actor Jay Hernandez told ComicBook.com that the character could still return somehow."Of course there is [a chance he could return]! I'm not saying anything, just that it's a possibility." Considering Superman kind of sort of dies in Batman v. Superman but also seems to have somehow come back from the dead to appear in the Justice League films, nothing is out of the question.

Look at the chart above and you'll see two things happening. First, Apple has overtaken Symbian to become the top smartphone platform in the UK (with a 27 percent market share). And secondly, Android has grown 634 percent
year-over-year to shoot into second place, with less than half a percentage point keeping it from the top spot (other reports already place it ahead). As you might expect, much of that growth isn't coming from folks switching from one smartphone to the other, but from new smartphone users -- Comscore found that 42 percent of all mobile users in the UK used a smartphone in May of this year, compared to just 27 percent a year ago. Of course, that also means that 58 percent of UK cellphone users are still potential smartphone users (to say nothing of those that still don't have a cellphone at all), so there's certainly still plenty up for grabs for all involved.

Polish president in Athens to attend Arraiolos Group meeting
President Andrzej Duda arrived in Athens on Thursday night to attend on Friday the annual meeting of the Arraiolos Group, which gathers the presidents of countries whose prime ministers take part in EU summits.
This year's meeting of the Arraiolos Group will be devoted to increasing the European Union's resistance to economic and social crises, as well as to European security issues.
In Athens, the president will highlight the successes of the Polish economy and social policy in recent years, presidential aide Krzysztof Szczerski told PAP. "He will also encourage a discussion on the contemporary model of the welfare state, whose goal is even and equitable economic development," Szczerski added.
During a planned debate on the threats arising from uncontrolled migration, the Polish president is to emphasise the role of Poland as an EU's eastern border country and its openness to economic migration from neighboring countries, as well as Polish assistance provided to the countries of southern Europe in protecting their borders.
Duda will also point out the need to protect the Common Market against internal protectionism by some countries, as well as the need to eliminate double standards in the quality of products offered on the European market.
At a session devoted to European military security, the president will speak about the importance of maintaining close cooperation between the EU and the United States and highlight the benefits of an increased presence of NATO soldiers, including US troops in Poland and in other countries of the so-called eastern flank for the security of the whole of Europe.
A joint declaration is foreseen at the end of the Friday meeting.
The Athens event will be the fifteenth meeting of the Arraiolos Group, founded in 2003 on the initiative of Portuguese President Jorge Sampaio. The name comes from the city in Portugal where the first meeting of the presidents of Austria, Finland, Germany, Latvia, Poland, Portugal, Hungary and Italy took place. Later, Slovenia, Croatia, Estonia and Bulgaria joined the group, followed by Malta and Greece. The President of Ireland will also attend this year's meeting.

Top Customer Reviews
I wonder if I would have appreciated it at age 16, when I saw that trailer. Probably not. I think one has to experience a lot of what Ned Merrill has before this film would really hit home - and hit home it does! I'm not going to give away any of the plot, so no need for spoiler alerts here. Suffice to say that you are painfully aware at the start that all is not as it seems, and as the story progresses the veil (of forgetfulness? of denial? of self rationalization?) is slowly and inexorably lifted, until the soul-shattering climax (which by then you've been fearfully anticipating) at the movie's end.
I truly wish I could say this movie was "dated", because that would mean its terrible, nihilistic vision of the hollowness of suburban life was also no longer relevant - sadly, it remains as current as last minute's Facebook posting or Instagram.
Burt Lancaster is at the top of his form here - flawless performance. Janet Landgard and Janice Rule are also superb.
I think it is important to support the few companies that are still interested in putting out films and giving us something extra!
It is terrific presentations like this , with interesting and informative extras that make something worth owning and collecting.
swimmer“The Swimmer” probes the fragmented psyche of a wealthy townie who swims from one pool to the next in a wealthy Connecticut suburb, gradually reliving his failed personal and professional life along the way. Lancaster stars as Ned Merrill, and gives a tremendous performance as a guy experiencing his past and re-experiencing his downfall, which is partially revealed in a series of mostly ambiguous run-ins with various neighbors. From his family’s nubile babysitter (Janet Landgard) to his former mistress (Janice Rule), it’s clear something has happened to Ned’s job and (possibly) family, and yet director Frank Perry and screenwriter Eleanor Perry (the director’s then-wife) do a remarkable job retaining enough of the mystery from Cheever’s story so it’s never completely explained. Lancaster, meanwhile, is superb in a demanding role that ranges from a sexist, cheating, demeaning louse to a sympathetic loser who’s fallen from grace (look also for Joan Rivers as a party guest Burt hits on late in the film!).Read more ›

Chicago is bursting with mountain-longing, Colorado-fantasizing, loft-living 20-somethings who are familiar with our beloved, original musicians (I’m thinking Bob Dylan, The Grateful Dead). These Chicago hipsters and yuppies itching for that folk-rock sound attended a performance by folk artist Josh Ritter Jan. 29 at The Riviera (4746 N. Ravine Ave.), where he delighted the crowd with his multi-faceted country, roots-rock, folk, electronica and bluegrass style.
His newest album Sermon on the Rocks tells stories with each song, narrating both his life and the lives of fictional others. Their settings include backyards, bone-yards, mill-towns, the Dead Sea and the Garden of Eden. Their characters are infidels, jezebels and enticing girls who “aren’t like other girls,” and they offer advice: “When you get damned in the popular opinion, it’s just another damn of the damns you’re not giving.”
Some songs feature new, electronic, ambient sounds, but don’t worry, the album as a whole is still rooted in Ritter’s folksy past.
Clad in paint-splattered coveralls (the same ones on his album cover and the same ones he wore on Conan O’Brien a few nights earlier), Ritter took the stage around 8:45 p.m., after folk music group Elephant Revival opened, with a beaming smile and slightly childish, giddy bouncing motions.
He opened the show with an old song titled “Idaho,” from his 2006 album The Animal Years, which led into “Birds of the Meadow” from Sermon on the Rocks. As one of the new songs he seemed to have experimented with style-wise, it felt eerie and almost rocker-ish.
The next song he played, “Young Moses,” was more like his old music, though. It was a bit faster than I remembered, but it achieved a certain pulse and vibration that satisfied the audience. People bobbed their heads and moved freely while the folksy beat pulled them along.
Early on, he mixed a rendition of Kanye West’s “No Church in the Wild” into his music, starting off quiet, tranquil and mountain-esque before taking a louder, bang-ier turn. I preferred it at the start.
He then tackled “Cumberland” and “Henrietta, Indiana” — both stomping, country beats, slightly evocative of Lyle Lovett or John Mellencamp. Then, during “Where the Night Goes,” I began to feel a void. I began to feel like the loud, full band (however talented and in-sync) was taking away from his music.
While the crowd consistently responded well to his newer songs, they exploded when he slid in some of his earlier music. They went wild when he opened with “Idaho” and closed with “Good Man,” both off his 2006 album The Animal Years, and exalted later on for “Right Moves,” “The Temptation of Adam” and “To the Dogs of Whoever” from The Historical Conquests of Josh Ritter (2007).
“Snow is Gone” and (especially) “Kathleen” from Hello Starling (2003) may have been his biggest hits of the night. Both were more folk, less rock.
Wrapping “Kathleen” up around 10 p.m., Ritter shouted, “This is a dream come true, Chicago. Thank you very much!” and did a little happy dance.
He finally got to his new album’s single, “Ready to Get Down” — the epitome of his chatty, quick-paced, nearly rap-like style. Then, after “Homecoming,” (arguably his most popular from the new album, judging from the audience’s reaction), the band left the stage.
Standing and begging, the crowd called him back out — this time solo. He delicately picked at his guitar, singing “Change of Time” from his 2010 album So Runs the World Away, and finally, I heard what I had been missing the entire time: the words, his eccentric voice.
Once finished, his band came back onstage, bringing along loud noise and suppressing his lyrics again. After a third encore of sorts, audience members flooded the streets around 10:30 p.m.
Throughout the night, the band boasted power and abruption — crescendos and decrescendos and fermatas, oh my. But his lyrics boast depth. His lyrics are the best (and, perhaps most legendary) component of his songs. And they were drowned out and unheard.
But forgotten? I don’t think so. At one point, during a guitar solo, Ritter knelt down on the stage, facing the keyboardist (also his producer) almost like he was praying, paying tribute to the religious metaphors in his songs and the small-town, blue-collar, American lyrics he writes — however hushed they might have been.

Turkey defence vendor Aselsan is working to secure a contract to supply very high frequency (VHF) radios to the Ukrainian armed forces, Defence Express reports.
In 2016, Kiev began the process of selecting a new VHF radio system by issuing a tender, to which Aselsan and Harris Corporation responded. Up to 600 VHF systems could be acquired.
According to Defence Express, the Ukrainian Ministry of Defence (MoD) will assess each proposal in accordance with the following: cost effectiveness; scalability and application potential; compatibility with the systems used by the Ukrainian Army, Navy and Air Force; NATO compliance; transfer-of-technology, offsets (e.g. co-production) and credit.
In its interview with Defence Express, Aselsan affirmed that the VHF system on offer by the company is its latest product and that key aspects of the Ukrainian MoD requirement, such as technology transfer and customization, is on offer.
Notes & Comments:
Aselsan’s software defined radios (SDR), which are radios with software-driven functions (e.g. signal processing, have been exported to Pakistan and Saudi Arabia with local production and customization. As with the competition, Aselsan markets its SDRs as encrypted and jam-resistant solutions.
In Pakistan, Aselsan SDRs have been co-produced at the National Radio Telecommunication Corporation (NRTC) since 2013-2014. In Saudi Arabia, these SDRs are being co-produced locally at Military Industries Corporation (MIC), of which Aselsan is a co-owner. Aselsan assisted MIC with developing its own radio waveforms and software platform, which will enable Riyadh to yield control over the platform.
It appears a comparable package (to the Pakistan and Saudi programs) is being offered to Ukraine. Aselsan SDR suites come in multiple products, such as the PRC/VRC-9661, which can be supplied as a manpack radio (10W), vehicular radio (10W/50W) and base station radio (50W). In terms of financing, the Turkish government is intent on developing the mechanism to drive its exports (it is piloting a $400 million U.S. credit program for the MILGEM Ada corvette sale to Pakistan).

That’s it! you can now successfully play PSP games on our iPhone without jailbreak. Good luck.

The Road to Corunna – November 1808
In September, 1808, the 10th Hussars, under the command of Lieutenant Colonel George Leigh, marched from their base at Brighton for the docks at Portsmouth, where they embarked on board ship, bound for Spain. They were delayed in Stokes Bay until finally sailing on 31st October, arriving at Corunna in northern Spain on 10th November.
The regiment was part of the Hussar Brigade (with the 7th and 15th Hussars) under the command of Brigadier General Slade, late of the 10th Hussars. This brigade, along with other troops, was part of a force 10,000 strong intent on joining 23,000 British troops in Portugal, with the aim of assisting Spanish resistance to Napoleon’s plans to place his brother, Joseph, on the throne of Spain. The British armies were under the command of General Sir John Moore.
Unfortunately the campaign was doomed from the start; the French easily defeated the Spanish armies and occupied Madrid, and also captured the city of Burgos, Moore’s destination. The British were heavily outnumbered and the weather was poor, so it was decided the only option was to retire on Corunna and evacuation – Dunkirk 130 years early!
The Hussar Brigade fought well in the withdrawal, despite its commander: Slade was an ineffective commander. He was slow in decision-making and his choice of routes often added miles to a journey. In the action at Mayorga, when his brigade was ordered to charge French cavalry, he spent so long fiddling with his stirrups that Colonel Leigh took over the command, with the 10th taking over 40 prisoners.
At the Battle of Benevente (29th December) the 10th Hussars charged 600 French cavalry of the Imperial Guard, completely routing them – the French lost 70 prisoners and 130 killed. Amongst the prisoners was General Lefevre-Desnouettes, captured by Private Levi Grisdall. The General was commander in chief of the French cavalry, and his loss probably caused enough confusion amongst the French leadership to delay their offensive and allow the British time to get to Corunna. Grisdall was promoted to Sergeant for his actions.
After the Battle of Benevente, Moore wrote: “Our cavalry are very superior to any the French have and the right spirit has been infused into them by their … leaders …” This spirit was essential – the French commander, Marshal Soult, now had 70,000 men, including 10,000 cavalry. The British were exhausted; at the beginning of January an officer, Captain Darby, and seventeen other ranks died of exhaustion.
The weather was appalling, with snow and ice interspersed with rain, and the road impassable. Only the cavalry rearguards and their comrades in the Rifles were able to keep the French at bay.
On the 11th January the army reached Corunna; the expected ships had not arrived so Moore set up a strong defensive position until the 14th when transport arrived. Between the 14th and 16th the dismounted cavalry (i.e. those without horses), the sick and the best horses were embarked, although only 30 horses per regiment were permitted.
On the same day the French attacked and the British infantry, 14,500 strong, stood to arms. The battle lasted all day and Moore was killed, but the French were fought off and on the 18th the rest of the army embarked. The winds were kind and the ships managed to get away quickly.
The death of Sir John Moore achieved almost mythical status, and his command of his army in ill-fated circumstances, is still remembered with admiration. His death and burial at Corunna were commemorated in a poem by Charles Wolfe (in 1817)
Slowly and sadly we laid him down,
From the field of his fame fresh and gory; We carved not a line, and we raised not a stone, But we left him alone with his glory.
Tragically, every horse had to be destroyed: they could not be embarked and many were already suffering from the strenuous retreat across terrible mountainous roads, and they could not be left for the enemy to take. The 10th Hussars had left England with over 600 horses; they returned with 30.
Sailing from Corunna on the 18th January, the transports arrived in England in the first week of February. The 10th Hussars returned to Spain in 1813 to accompany Wellington’s victorious armies into France and final victory at Waterloo.
The Battle Honour “Corunna” was awarded to infantry regiments which took part in the campaign, but not to cavalry regiments. The 15th King’s Hussars received the Honour “Sahagun” for the action at that place; although the 10th Hussars also took part in the action, they were not awarded the distinction.
HorsePower Museum has many items of interest connected to the ill-fated Corunna campaign, including the breastplate (cuirass) of a French cavalryman, captured at Benevente.

International rating agency Moody’s Investors Service yesterday said the political crisis unfolding in Sri Lanka with the sudden appointment of former president Mahinda Rajapaksa in place of Ranil Wickremesinghe is credit negative for the sovereign.
In a shocking move, President Maithripala Sirisena appointed the former strongman Rajapaksa to the premiership last Friday, sacking Wickremesinghe from the post and prorogued Parliament till November 16.
However, Wickremesinghe is still clinging on to his post and has not vacated Temple Trees, Prime Minister’s official residence, claiming the new appointment is unconstitutional and he still can show the majority support in the 225-member assembly.Parties supporting Wickremesinghe yesterday urged the Speaker to reconvene Parliament to put the current impasse to rest.
“The current political crisis in Sri Lanka is credit negative for the sovereign. The president’s sudden appointment of Rajapaksa as Prime Minister significantly heightens policy uncertainty,” said Moody’s Sovereign Risk Group Analyst Matthew Circosta.
Moody’s maintains a speculative grade ‘B1’ rating with a ‘Negative’ outlook on Sri Lanka due to the sovereign’s high government debt, very low debt affordability and fragile external payments position.
A former deputy governor and political and economic commentator Dr. W.A. Wijewardena yesterday called the current situation in Sri Lanka as “unprecedented in the history of Sri Lanka” and said “whatever its outcome, it has far-reaching social, political and economic consequences”.
In his weekly column to our sister paper Daily FT, he said among other things the economy would be the main casualty and urged the parties to resolve it quickly or perish as the economy is already in a fragile state with growth at its lowest, weak external sector and unmanageable budget leading to more borrowings and money printing by the Central Bank.
“Additionally, the possible social tensions that may unfold in the next few weeks would have a negative impact on the economy, which is already growing slowly,” Circosta said expressing similar sentiments.
As the planned budget for November 5 is in disarray, it is highly expected that the new populist government led by Rajapaksa to announce a raft of concessions to the people on November 16, when Parliament is re-summoned, to remain popular until the next parliamentary polls.
Such action would certainly throw away the government’s medium-term fiscal consolidation agenda eroding investor confidence.
“And at a time when global financial markets are turbulent, uncertainty about the direction of future policy could have a large and lasting negative impact on international investor confidence.
Such a development would undermine Sri Lanka’s ability to refinance the forthcoming external debt in early 2019 at affordable costs,” Circosta said.
Chambers urge to resolve crisis democratically
The business chambers operating in the country yesterday urged the political authorities to resolve the issues through democratically established institutions as early as possible, as the current political uncertainty could have adverse consequences to the country, if it remains unsolved.
“We request the political authorities to resolve the issues through the democratically established institutions as early as possible.
We appeal to the political parties to ensure that law and order prevails and that danger to the life and property of citizens is prevented.
All parties should act in the best interests of our country, our people and the national economy,” joint chambers of commerce said in their statement.
The joint chambers include the Ceylon Chamber of Commerce, Chamber of Construction Industry Sri Lanka, Chamber of Young Entrepreneurs, Federation of Chamber of Commerce and Industry Sri Lanka, Joint Apparel Association Forum, National Chamber of Commerce of Sri Lanka and National Chamber of Exporters of Sri Lanka.

Mr Justice Norris granted the application by summary judgment without a hearing, given that this was a "plain case" in which an earlier version of the trust deed had been incorrectly executed and there was "no real prospect of a realistic challenge" to his decision. However, he went on to say that future applicants for rectification "must understand that it is likely that the court will insist that after judgment all evidence be open to inspection"; and that if this was not acceptable then the application should be listed for public hearing.
Although the judge's comments on the confidentiality issue did not form part of his judgment, pensions litigation expert Bethan Rundall of Pinsent Masons, the law firm behind Out-Law.com, said that forcing more public hearings in rectification cases could push up the costs of the process.
"While the court's decision to grant rectification by summary judgment without a hearing is undoubtedly a step in the right direction, the judge's comments may have unintended consequences," she said.
"To suggest that hearings would ordinarily be required in future, unless parties agree to lift confidentiality on all evidence, could mean that cases where summary judgment is granted on paper alone remain a real rarity. This will not help to reduce the already high costs of rectification," she said.
Rectification is a process through which a court can amend a trust deed retrospectively in a way which reflects the original intention of the parties. The aim is to place the parties in the position that they would have been in had the mistake not been made. Rectification will only be granted if the document does not express the true intentions of the parties as a result of the mistake, and there is no other way to easily correct the error.
In this case, the High Court had been asked to consider a rectification application by the Girls' Day School Trust (GDST), in relation to the deed setting up a new pension scheme as part of a transfer of certain liabilities from the Independent Schools Pension Scheme. An earlier version of the deed had been executed by mistake, instead of a final version which had been agreed by all parties and which included provisions allowing for future amendments to the scheme.
As part of his judgment, Mr Justice Norris listed the principles he was required to take into account before making his decision whether or not to grant the application. In particular, GDST had to be able to show "that it and the trustee had a common, continuing, objectively established intention in respect of the particular matter which by mistake was incorporated into or omitted from or otherwise not correctly reflected in the definitive deed in its executed form: and in the present case that had the definitive deed been executed in its intended form [the trustee] could not have objected to it", he said.
In this case, both parties had agreed that the application should proceed without a public hearing, and the judge ultimately agreed. The court is permitted to grant or refuse an application without a public hearing "if it considers that to do so will save time or expense, and that a hearing is not necessary", the judge said.
However, it was important that any relevant information be made publicly available in cases where there was no public hearing so that ordinary pension scheme members were not "left with any sense (even in relation to the correction of mistakes on technical matters) that there has been some 'deal done in a dark corner'," the judge said.
He ordered that the judgment in this case be made publicly available and provided to all scheme members, and that the order for rectification should not take effect until 42 days after publication.

We recently read an interesting article published by the British Coffee Association that we wanted to share with you. We're always reading contradictory information about whether coffee should be viewed as healthy or not, so this made quite good reading...
Coffee is best known as a source of caffeine, a mild central nervous system stimulant. Drinking coffee therefore has a positive effect on an individual’s alertness and concentration level, resulting in better performance, particularly of benefit when an individual is feeling tired or lethargic.
Alleviating Driver Fatigue
Research in both the UK and US has demonstrated quite clearly that two or three cups of coffee and a short sleep are the most effective way of alleviating driver fatigue. We all know that many road traffic accidents occur as a result of a driver falling asleep at the wheel, and therefore any measure that reduces the incidence of this, including drinking coffee, can only be for the good. The UK Department of Transport’s Think! Road Safety Campaign gives advice including, ‘Drink two cups of coffee or a high-caffeine drink and have a rest for 10-15 minutes to allow the caffeine to kick in’.
Post Lunch Dip
After eating lunch, it’s quite normal to experience what is known as `the post lunch dip’. This occurs when our bodies' natural rhythms begin to slow down and as a result we become less alert and have difficulty concentrating. The caffeine contained in a couple of cups of coffee is sufficient to raise levels of alertness, and increase our concentration, enabling those at work to keep going until the end of the working day.
Night Shift Work
With an increase in the ’24 hour society’ it is inevitable that more and more people will be required to work through the night and research has shown that these individuals may benefit from a couple of cups of coffee during the evening to help them concentrate better during the early hours of the morning. Importantly, neither the time taken to fall asleep, nor the quality of sleep, were affected by coffee consumed during the night shift.
Research conducted at Bristol University has demonstrated that drinking coffee has been shown to add a `feel good’ factor and lift some of the sluggish symptoms that are the common after-effects of a cold. Volunteers were tested when healthy and then again when they had a cold. The results were assessed and coffee increased alertness and performance of the sick volunteers to the same level as the healthy group.
Coffee is one of the most heavily researched commodities in the world today and the wealth of scientific evidence suggests that moderate coffee consumption, of four to five cups per day, can contribute to a healthy, balanced diet for the general population and may confer health benefits. Pregnant women should however moderate their intake following the guidelines issued by the Food Standards Agency, to 200mg caffeine per day from all sources.
The caffeine contained in a couple of cups of coffee (approx 120mg) increases alertness and performance, aids concentration and alleviates some of the sluggish symptoms associated with the common cold.
