The Japanese yen is currently weaker against all major currencies. The yen is the weakest against the British pound and the US dollar. Last week, the yen ended lower despite increasing fears of a trade war. After looking overbought at the end of March, the yen has been selling off in April. Despite recent weakness, slowing global growth and rising geopolitical tensions should keep the yen on a strengthening path.
Turning to the latest news, investigations into the Moritomo scandal suggest that the Finance Ministry colluded with the Osaka-based school operator in order to drive down the value of the school land. According to Japan Times, Moritomo Gakuen was asked to lie about the cost of removing waste from its property. The news increases the likelihood that Japan's Prime Minister Abe will be forced to resign. A weekend survey also showed that a majority of Japanese residents now disapprove of Abe's cabinet for the first time in six months. Our short-term outlook on the yen is neutral, while our medium-term outlook on the yen remains bullish.
USD/JPY is currently trading above 107.10. EUR/JPY is currently up and trading below 131.40.
Looking at Japanese economic data this week, traders will be watching sentiment and machinery orders. The currency account for February was slightly below expectations (¥2,076.0b vs. ¥2,160.0b expected). The Eco-Watchers survey (outlook) for March was also below expectations (49.6 vs. 51.5 expected). On Wednesday, we'll see machinery orders for March. On Thursday, we'll see cross-border stock and bond investments. Last week, the Tankan large manufacturing survey missed expectations.

Apple’s entry into the foldables market is becoming clearer: According to information from an accurate analyst, the manufacturer is working on a completely new iPad design with a foldable display, the introduction of which is planned for 2024. The new model relies on a fold-out stand made of carbon fibers, which should be particularly light and durable, explains the analyst Ming-Chi Kuo on Twitter. He does not give any further details about the display size.
Few iPad innovations 2023
Kuo has deep insight into Apple’s supply chain and has regularly and accurately provided advance details of unreleased Apple hardware in the past. The analyst thinks sothat 2023 will be particularly quiet in terms of new iPad hardware: There may not be a new iPad announcement in the next nine to twelve months, and mass production of an iPad mini 7 will probably not start until early 2024.
It remains to be seen whether Apple will introduce an iPad Air 6 in the next few years, but the main innovation there is likely to be the M2 chip. Apple updated iPad Pro and the base iPad in fall 2022, and the iPad mini was last relaunched in September 2021. Kuo predicts that iPad sales in 2023 will therefore fall by 10 to 15 percent compared to the previous year.
Apple foldable approaching
It’s no secret that Apple is researching foldables. There have been rumors for a long time that the group wants to enter the market with a first product in the coming year – with a tablet. The supplier and competitor Samsung allegedly also expects internally that Apple will have its own foldable in the program from 2024.
A relatively large device with a 20” display was also discussed. At the same time, there is persistent speculation that Apple will switch to OLED displays with the iPad Pro series in the coming year. The last redesign of the iPad Pro was more than four years ago. For 2025, Apple is also considering adding a touchscreen to MacBooks, it said recently.

Why did Attorney General Patricia Madrid’s office dismiss 5 counts of sexual exploitation of a child and 14 counts of criminal sexual contact with a minor in the case against Tiffany Mia Barbosa, the daughter of Mark Rendleman?
Look at the docket. Obviously, a lot of time, effort and taxpayer dollars had gone into pursuing this case, so what possible circumstances could warrant the dismissal of so many charges against a child predator after nine years of litigation? How is it possible that the defendant in the case would walk without a jail sentence?
For the answer, we need to look at a motion for continuance filed on 8/15/05 in the case of Barbosa’s father, Mark Rendleman. The motion states, in part:
“During the course of this case, former co-defendant Mia Barbosa, who is the daughter of Defendant Rendleman, began a friendship with a close personal friend of Attorney General Madrid. When Attorney General Madrid became aware of the potential conflict, she advised the Santa Fe District Attorney’s office and from that time forward relied upon the Santa Fe District Attorney’s office to handle completely, all plea negotiations and proceedings involving Ms. Barbosa as a defendant.
“Recently, Ms. Barbosa, who remains a key defense witness, became the wife of Attorney General Madrid’s close personal friend. Given this circumstance, the Attorney General believes that a conflict of interest now exists that would violate the Rules of Professional Responsibility if the Office of the Attorney General were to continue to prosecute this case.”
You may be wondering, “Who is this close personal friend?” The answer is attorney Bill Robins. And the case against his wife is not the only time eyebrows have been raised regarding the relationship between Mr. Robins and Patricia Madrid:
Madrid’s committee has received at least $45,000 from members of law firms that received contracts early last year to represent state pension funds and the state Investment Council in securities fraud lawsuits.
Bill Robins, a partner in a Houston law firm that also has offices in New Mexico, contributed $25,000 last August .
Hmm, Mr. Robins gives Madrid $25,000 in August 2004 and in November 2004 it just so happens that 19 counts against his wife are dismissed, and she walks away without jail time on the one remaining count. Didn’t the Rules of Professional Responsibility require Patricia Madrid to excuse herself from the Barbosa case upon receipt of those funds?

It must be Yeezy season because another lengthy profile of Kanye West, that includes an actual interview, has just been published. W magazine caught up with the “Send It Up” rapper and his “trademark raw-nerved swagger” (their words) in Paris.
One reveal in the story is the impetus behind the Yeezus track “I Am A God.”
It turns out this song was inspired by a serious diss—not from another rapper but from a major fashion designer. Last fall, a few days before Paris Fashion Week, West was informed that he’d be invited to a widely anticipated runway show only on the condition that he agree not to attend any other shows. “So the next day I went to the studio with Daft Punk, and I wrote ‘I Am a God,’ ” West says. “Cause it’s like, Yo! Nobody can tell me where I can and can’t go. Man, I’m the No. 1 living and breathing rock star. I am Axl Rose; I am Jim Morrison; I am Jimi Hendrix.” West is not smiling as he says this, and his voice is getting louder with each sentence. “You can’t say that you love music and then say that Kanye West can’t come to your show! To even think they could tell me where I could and couldn’t go is just ludicrous. It’s blasphemous—to rock ’n’ roll, and to music.”
Read the full profile, titled “Kanye West: The Transformer,” right here. Also, check Nick Knight’s illustrations of West in the gallery.

How does a person with autism feel?
find it hard to communicate and interact with other people. find it hard to understand how other people think or feel. find things like bright lights or loud noises overwhelming, stressful or uncomfortable. get anxious or upset about unfamiliar situations and social events.
Do autistic adults cry?
While some people with autism merely yell or stamp, many really do become overwhelmed by their own emotions. 3 Bolting, hitting, self-abuse, crying, and screaming are all possibilities. These can be particularly frightening—and even dangerous—when the autistic individual is physically large.
Do Aspergers feel empathy?
Do people with Asperger’s have empathy? Contrary to popular belief, people with Asperger’s do have empathy. They care about how others are thinking and feeling but they often have difficulty putting themselves in other people’s shoes. This is a skill that can be learned over time.
What are the 3 types of autism?
The three types of ASD that will be discussed are: Autistic Disorder. Asperger’s Syndrome. Pervasive Development Disorder.
Is autism inherited from the mother or father?
The team found that mothers passed only half of their structural variants on to their autistic children—a frequency that would be expected by chance alone—suggesting that variants inherited from mothers were not associated with autism. But surprisingly, fathers did pass on substantially more than 50% of their variants.

Paul Lines, Lostoft Fish Market Alliance Chairman, Told Express.com that the British could dominate the European fishing marketplace by supplying freshwater fish. He added that the UK government must prioritize rebuilding the domestic fishing industry and that thousands of jobs need to be created in the industry to make Brescit a success.
Mr Lines said: “You want to cut and sell the raw material and we have to make a lot of money if we are smart.
“We can supply half of the fish that Europe needs.
“Instead of catching it on their own boat we can be its catcher and supplier, it’s our market.
“Fishermen will lose, processors won’t get that raw material from anywhere.

“Grants from the Dutch, French and Belgian fishing industries have grown over 40 years through injection and opportunity.”
He continued: “We have ended 40 years, Brexit has to turn this death table.
“We have been able to rebuild this industry around Great Britain in fishing and create 12,000 jobs.
“It’s so simple and if it hadn’t happened in our case, Brexit would have failed miserably.”
“I saw the quota fall to a point where we put a pot.
“We struggle to make a living from what we have left.”
He added: “We allowed all of this to be part of Europe, now we want it again
“We want to see their boats cut, we want to see them get a new modern fleet because we want it.

U.S. Tax Reform – Chairman Camp’s Discussion Draft: Individual Taxation
For the majority of individuals, Chairman Camp’s U.S. tax reform discussion draft lowers the overall tax burden and simplifies the tax filing process. The Joint Committee on Taxation (JCT) estimates that taxpayers with incomes below $100,000 would be better off while those with incomes above that level would face a tax increase. Overall, individuals would benefit under the discussion draft to the tune of $580 billion over the next ten years.
Under Chairman Camp’s draft, there would only be three rates of tax on individuals. For simplicity, this blog will refer to income levels for single filers and include the married couple rates in parentheses. A tax rate of 10% applies to the first $36,900 ($73,800) of taxable income, followed by a tax rate of 25% on income over $36,900 ($73,800) and up to $400,000 ($450,000).
Finally, there is a 35% tax rate on income in excess of $400,000 ($450,000). The draft would eliminate the personal exemption, but increase the standard deduction to $11,000 ($22,000). The benefit of the standard deduction would be capped at 25%.
Under the draft, most individual taxpayers would no longer itemize deductions on their tax returns due to the increased standard deduction and the reduced number of itemized deductions available. Most significantly, the draft proposes capping the mortgage interest deduction to the interest on the debt of $500,000.
The deduction for interest on home equity indebtedness would be eliminated. The proposal would also eliminate a wide range of deductions such as those for state and local taxes, real estate taxes, personal casualty losses, medical expenses, and tax preparation fees. The 2% floor for miscellaneous deductions would be removed, however, a 2% floor would be added for charitable contributions.
The combination of an increased standard deduction and a reduced number of itemized deductions would substantially reduce the number of taxpayers filing itemized tax returns.
For many, this would be a benefit. Taxpayers would face reduced record-keeping obligations and the IRS audit process would be more streamlined because inspectors would have fewer expenses to audit.
The draft proposal would also eliminate many educational deductions and tax credits, consolidating them into a $2,500 American Opportunity Tax Credit and removing the student loan interest deduction entirely.
The preferential rates for capital gains and qualified dividends would be removed, however, taxpayers would still face lower taxation on those income types through an above-the-line deduction of 40% of the capital gains and qualified dividends from income.Disclaimer: This blog and website are public sources of general information concerning our firm and its lawyers, as well as the information presented.

At the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the lack of any existing treatment to mitigate the impacts of the novel virus was perceived as an alarming reality. What became clear was that any hope of an effective and timely solution relied on immediate and considerable investment in biomedical research and innovation. The common narrative at the time was that an effective vaccine likely would not be safely distributed for years. Before COVID-19, the fastest vaccine development, targeting mumps in 1967, took 4 years. Fast-forward to just over a year since the beginning of the pandemic, vaccines manufactured by multiple companies have been authorized globally and numerous other candidates are in late stages of clinical trials.
While the race to produce an effective vaccine was won by those who rushed to the market in record time, the most significant implications of this innovation will almost certainly transcend the current pandemic. Two of the most widely distributed vaccines thus far were produced by Moderna and Pfizer-BioNtech. Moderna and Pfizer successfully implemented mRNA technology into a widespread therapeutic vaccine. Having completed the fastest successful vaccine trial in history, the two companies led the efforts to obtain the first ever authorization for an mRNA-based vaccine.
The traditional approach to vaccine technology, implemented by Oxford in collaboration with AstraZeneca, relies on an adenovirus vector. Essentially, the individual receives a harmless modified version of a chimpanzee virus containing the genes for the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. Spike proteins play a critical role in the way the virus is able to penetrate host cells and initiate infection. Mimicking this process, the vaccine prompts the body to create an immune response, preparing the body to face the actual virus. In contrast, the vaccines produced by Moderna and Pfizer-BioNTech work by delivering messenger ribonucleic acid (“mRNA”), the genetic substance responsible for communicating protein-making instructions within a cell, into the body and instruct the body cells to produce the coronavirus spike protein. The body’s immune system would then respond to the protein and learn to attack the virus if it ever came in contact with it
While the pandemic may appear to be a catalyst for this innovation, the groundwork has been in place for years. mRNA technology was actually adapted from decades of previous research into the topic in order to address SARS-CoV-2. Attributed to work done by researchers Katalin Kariko and Drew Weissman at the University of Pennsylvania, their well-documented efforts over several decades culminated in the discovery effective insertion of synthetic mRNA into human cells without being attacked by an immune response. Moderna utilized this mRNA technology to formulate their vaccine candidate just 48 hours after researchers in China revealed the virus’ genetic sequence.
The pandemic was significant not only for discovery, but for establishing the efficacy of the technology. Establishing the efficacy of mRNA-based vaccines opens the floodgates for significant investments in the field. Excitement about mRNA technology has led to billions of dollars being poured into the sector to produce mRNA-based medicines targeting diseases that are difficult to treat. The pandemic and vaccine rollout also served to help build the “mRNA future” by establishing a vast regulatory and manufacturing network for the brand-new technology in under a year. Moderna is noted to have indicated it has “over 270 issued or allowed U.S. and foreign patents protecting mRNA-based technology, with over 600 worldwide pending patent applications.” This is tied to an mRNA product pipeline including 26 drug candidates targeting infectious, rare, autoimmune, and cardiovascular diseases. Similarly, two other leading pharmaceutical companies, BioNTech and Curevac, who have an mRNA-based vaccine candidate in collaboration with Bayer, also have significant numbers of ongoing projects related to mRNA therapeutics. mRNA technology is believed to be versatile enough to potentially create “on-demand proteins associated with specific tumors to teach the body to fight off advanced cancers”, or even produce missing proteins in cystic fibrosis patients.
The innovation surrounding this technology is intimately tied to their intellectual property rights. Looking more closely at COVID-19 vaccines, patent network analyses have shown the incredibly complex matrix of patents, licenses, sub-licenses, and agreements between various entities in the research and production stages. Part of the reason companies such as Moderna and BioNTech are emerging as major players in the market for mRNA-based medicines is due to their ownership of licenses and strategic partnerships with other pharmaceutical companies. For example, SEC filings reveal a series of sublicenses for mRNA-based technology patents coming from the University of Pennsylvania to Moderna and BioNTech. What is yet to be seen is how intellectual property rights, namely patents and trade secrets, will impact the long-term prospects of mRNA technology. Certainly, the intricacies of research and development in this area could lead to novel and complex IP issues. As waivers of IP rights associated with COVID-19 therapeutics have become a prominent topic over the past year, it is hard to speculate about the future of IP in pandemic-related technologies. The IP landscape surrounding mRNA technology has only begun to unfold.

|Bob's Burgers character|
|Hair||Bald, previously blonde|
|Behind the scenes|
|Voiced by||Larry Murphy|
Teddy is a carpenter/handyman and one of Bob's few friends and is a frequent diner at the restaurant.
Teddy is known for telling long winded stories and being overly chatty. In Bed and Breakfast, Teddy reveals that he once had a "three way" (or at least watched a three way) in which his wife had sex with Ray, a man who dresses as a seal down at the amusement park. Because of this, Teddy's greatest fear is costumed characters and their "soulless eyes" . One of his relatives owned a speak-easy named Swanky's, originator of the mixed drink The Swanky Panky.In The Belchies, Teddy tells Louise, Gene and Tina a story about the treasure under the abandoned Taffy Factory. Although there was gold, Teddy thought the story was really just a joke. In Full Bars, he hosts a black and orange Halloween party which turns hilariously tragic when he finds Francis, his pet guinea pig, flattened and quite dead. In The Deepening, he has a major role in the episode when he has to confront Mr. Fischoeder's mechanical shark; the very same shark Teddy had worked with while shooting a film several years earlier. In Topsy it is revealed that Teddy owns a large Van de Graaff generator, which he knows how to operate, but not very safely. Teddy, for one episode, was enemies with Louise because he occupies her room during his stay at the bed and breakfast. When Louise finds out his phobia of costumed characters, she orders several over the telephone, which drives him out.
- 'My temporary house, temporary rules! You don't like it? There's the door that you can't go out of!'
- 'No Gene. Kurt is seducing your Mommy.'
- ...' No that was my second cousin and it was third base'
- 'I made this guy say yes with my Body!'
- Bobby, want to come over and watch the game tonight? I'm making a three-bean salad, but it's bring your own bean. Can I put you down for garbanzo?
- 'It's a butt! Get it? A butt! With three turds!
- It has been suggested that Teddy had a bad relationship with his parents growing up (Father of the Bob).
- Teddy has only one testicle (Lindapendent Woman).
- Teddy is left handed in Sacred Cow and Christmas in the Car, but is right handed in Uncle Teddy.
- He is allergic to peanuts (Adventures In Chinchilla-sitting).

The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee raised $4.8 million in July, a DSCC official told CBS News Political Unit associate producer Ellee Watson before filing its report with the Federal Election Commission. The filing marks the best off-year July in the DSCC's history.
The committee's haul aligns with the support senatorial candidates have amassed in the states. As Watson and CBS News associate producer Sarah Ewall-Wice reported in June, Democratic Senate candidates are raking in more than some presidential contenders.
To flip the Senate in 2020, the Democrats will have to win at least three seats. The Democrats are pushing grassroots fundraising to bolster support in key states like Maine and Iowa. The committee raised $1.8 million in donations below $200.
The DSCC outraised the National Republican Senatorial Campaign Committee by $440,000 in the month of July.
FROM THE CANDIDATES
New Jersey Senator Cory Booker met with Environmental Protection Agency Regional Administrator Pete Lopez on Monday, the EPA said in a statement. The two discussed how the agency is working with Newark and the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) to address Newark's water crisis, says CBS News campaign reporter Jack Turman.
According to the statement, the EPA and NJDEP staff will have field teams to help with sampling homes where there are "known or suspected lead service lines in areas served by the Pequannock water system."
The city of Newark released a fact sheet on August 16 that said recent tests showed water filters provided by the city government in two homes might not be completely effective in filtering out lead levels in the city's water.
According to his Senate office, Booker pushed the EPA in the meeting for staff on the ground to assist with sampling the water and for additional resources to educate citizens of all languages about lead exposure risks.
"I hope that EPA will make a good faith effort to fulfill their commitment of getting additional federal resources on the ground," Booker said in a statement. "Newark residents, including myself, are counting on all levels of government to work together to find solutions as quickly as possible."
The former vice president has launched his first 60-second, targeting the Des Moines, Cedar Rapids, Quad City and Sioux City markets, reports CBSNews.com reporter Grace Segers. The ad, titled "Bones," makes the case for Biden's ability to take on President Trump in 2020.
"We know in our bones this election is different," the ad says. "The stakes are higher, the threat more serious. We have to beat Donald Trump. And all the polls agree that Joe Biden is the strongest Democrat to do the job."
It goes on to tout the accomplishments of the Obama administration — the economic recovery after the financial crisis and the passage of the nation's health care law — and the promises of Biden's candidacy to build on those efforts by building on the Affordable Care Act, restore relationships with U.S. allies and "restore the soul of the nation."
Senator Kirsten Gillibrand rolled out her mental health plan at a roundtable in Manchester, New Hampshire on Tuesday. CBS News campaign reporter Nicole Sganga says the policy proposal addresses the opioid epidemic, access to care in rural areas and expansion of financial reimbursement for mental health services.
"If you want to bend the costs of health care, it's all about prevention," Gillibrand said. "The fulcrum is mental health." According to a 2018 study by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) suicide rates rose by 48.3% in New Hampshire between 1999-2016, the third sharpest spike in the country.
New Hampshire still ranks fourth in the number of opioid-related deaths per capita, nationwide – behind West Virginia, Ohio and Washington, DC.
Sen. Elizabeth Warren on Tuesday released a plan aimed at, ahead of a roundtable on the topic in Minneapolis.
"It's long past time for us to reform our system," she wrote in a post on the site Medium. CBS News campaign reporter Zak Hudak says the Massachusetts senator proposes reducing incarceration rates with a range of strategies, including increasing support for at-risk students in schools.
Warren also has ideas to help the incarcerated as they exit the prison system, including a boost for rehabilitation services while prisoners are serving their time. And her plan includes several measures to revamp policing to use less violence and stem discrimination. Interest in the Massachusetts senator seems to be growing — she drew her largest crowd yet at a St. Paul, Minnesota rally on Monday, where 12,000 listened to her stump speech, a campaign spokesperson said.
IN THE HOUSE
After months of campaigning in Upstate South Carolina, Democrat Carrie Counton and Republican Patrick Haddon are going head-to-head in a special election Tuesday for South Carolina's House District 19. The seat became vacant in March when longtime Republican lawmaker Dwight Loftis—who represented the district for 23 years—was elected to the state's senate.
Greenville County Republican Party chairman Nate Leupp tells CBS News campaign reporter LaCrai Mitchell this special election could be a harbinger of how voters will cast their ballots in 2020.
"All of our state races are continually showing us where the voters in the upstate are—specifically Greenville County—they are continually conservative," said Leupp. "When we see our local Republicans running under Republican brand, winning by double digits in our districts, I think that's a good sign of how well President Trump's going to do."
Eight Democratic presidential candidate campaigns helped Counton canvass ahead of today's election, and both Seth Moulton and Tim Ryan canvassed alongside Counton during earlier visits to the Upstate.

Tortured Guantánamo detainee is freed in Belize
BELIZE CITY, Belize — A small Central American nation, known for its barrier reef and ecotourism, has taken in a former terrorist turned U.S. government informant whose tale of torture by the CIA moved a military jury at Guantánamo Bay to urge the Pentagon to grant him leniency.
U.S. forces released Majid Shoukat Khan, 42, to the custody of authorities in Belize on Thursday after a two-hour flight from the U.S. Navy base in Cuba.
It was the first resettlement of a detainee since President Barack Obama’s administration and culminated months of secret diplomacy. All other prisoners released in the intervening years were repatriated. But Khan, who completed his prison sentence nearly a year ago, had nowhere to go.
“I have been given a second chance in life, and I intend to make the most of it,” Khan said in a statement in which he pledged to become “a productive, law-abiding member of society.”
“I continue to ask for forgiveness from God and those I have hurt,” he said.
The circumstances of his resettlement were not immediately known. But he was expected to be joined by his wife and teenage daughter, who was born after his capture in Pakistan in 2003.
Khan was among the better-known prisoners of Guantánamo Bay, in part because he went to high school in Maryland, then left his immigrant family for his native Pakistan to join al-Qaida after the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.
From 2003 to 2006, he was held incommunicado in secret CIA prisons overseas and kept in dungeonlike conditions that included beatings, nudity, brutal forced feedings, waterboarding and other physical and sexual abuse.
In 2012, he agreed to testify against other prisoners. He also pleaded guilty to plotting a never-realized suicide bombing years earlier of Pakistan’s president at the time, Pervez Musharraf, and to delivering $50,000 that was used to finance a deadly attack in Indonesia.
His release in Belize was noteworthy for several reasons.
He was the first prisoner to be freed from Guantánamo Bay who had been held there as a “high-value detainee,” the intelligence community’s term for a former prisoner of a CIA black site who was subjected to the Bush administration’s secret torture program of “enhanced interrogation.”
A damning 2014 Senate investigation of the covert program disclosed what the CIA did to Khan when he went on a hunger strike in his second year of detention: His captors “infused” a purée of pasta, sauce, nuts, raisins and hummus into his rectum. His lawyers called it rape.
At his sentencing in 2021, Khan expressed remorse for his crimes and related his story to a U.S. military jury at Guantánamo, which followed war court guidelines and sentenced him retroactively to 26 years in prison. Seven of the jurors then urged granting him clemency.
“This abuse was of no practical value in terms of intelligence, or any other tangible benefit to U.S. interests,” they said in a handwritten letter from the jury room. “Instead, it is a stain on the moral fiber of America; the treatment of Mr. Khan in the hands of U.S. personnel should be a source of shame for the U.S. government.”
On Thursday, Eamon Courtenay, the foreign minister of Belize, called his country’s decision to resettle Khan “a humanitarian act.”
“Though Khan may have contributed to acts of terrorism, he was brutally abused and tortured, has repudiated radicalism, cooperated with U.S. authorities in the fight against terrorism — and has served his time,” Courtenay said.
The transfer agreement was reached last year in talks between senior Belize government officials and Ian C. Moss, a deputy counterterrorism coordinator at the State Department, said a U.S. official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because of diplomatic sensitivities. As a lawyer, Moss had helped defend Khan at Guantánamo Bay during the Trump administration.
Courtenay visited the prison last year to meet with Khan and evaluate his suitability for life in the English-speaking nation of about 400,000 citizens, among them fewer than 1,000 Muslims.
On Thursday, Courtenay told reporters: “Mr. Khan is not coming to Belize as a detainee. He has served his sentence and is a free man. He is being resettled on humanitarian grounds, just as our country has done for thousands of migrants and refugees throughout the years.”
Courtenay said the United States had provided funds to buy Khan a house and furnish it, as well as a car, a laptop and a phone.
He added, however, that Khan had agreed to have his activities monitored and to meet with the police, and that he understood that he would not be free to travel abroad for some time.

His early death meant that he had no real opportunity to form and shape an organization to continue the more Calvinist part of the revival. Yet the power of his preaching to thousands, his proclamation of the new birth, his doctrinal depth and clarity, and his passion for the poor should leave us thankful to God for calling him—one of the defining and foundational leaders of the fires of evangelical Christian revival.
George Whitefield’s first sermon after his ordination, in June 1736, prompted a complaint to the bishop! He later printed the sermon with the title On the Nature and Necessity of Our Regeneration or New Birth. Whitefield was never far from controversy, both with the established church (in England and American) and, sadly, the great John Wesley. Whitefield was a central figure in the evangelical revival of the 18th century and proved absolutely scathing about the condition of pre-revival clergy. Perhaps less organizationally gifted than Wesley, he nevertheless brought the Gospel to both the poorest of British workers as well as the English aristocracy (forming a close bond with the Countess of Huntingdon, whom we will meet later in the series), thus proving to be an extremely influential figure in the development and continuation of the evangelical tradition within the Church of England.
George Whitefield (1714–1770) was born on December 16, 1714, at the Bell Inn, in Gloucester, England. He was the youngest of seven children to Thomas and Elizabeth. His father died when he was just two years old, his mother made an unsuitable remarriage, and the prosperity of the inn declined rapidly. We know the details of Whitefield’s early life from his Journals, including his “A Short Account of God’s Dealings with the Reverend Mr George Whitefield,” although they cover the period only up to 1745 and have the benefit of hindsight.
Just before his 18th birthday, George entered Oxford as a “servitor.” This was the poor man’s way into Oxford. The student was granted free tuition, but the servitor had to serve other students, wear distinctive dress, and was not permitted to receive Holy Communion with the other students. However, it opened the door to a better, and higher, life.
George Whitefield was prime material for the Holy Club, formed at Oxford by, among others, Church of England priest and evangelist John Wesley and his brother Charles. Club members agreed to take Holy Communion every week, fast regularly, and follow the festivals of the church, as well as visit prisoners in jail. Like Wesley, Whitefield constantly experienced the inner conflict and struggle of daily temptation and the desire to live a religious life. Before arriving at Oxford, he was already reading William Law’s A Serious Call to a Devout and Holy Life. Soon after his arrival he noted in his Journal that “I now began to pray and sing psalms thrice every day.” Whitefield also recorded his admiration for the “Methodists,” those who were “methodical” and disciplined in their personal piety. It was perhaps inevitable that he join them.
Whitefield’s inner struggles continued. He sought counsel from the Wesleys and, after a breakfast with Charles, was recommended Henry Scougal’s The Life of God in the Soul of Man. Scougal was a 17th-century Scottish theologian and minister, and his book was instrumental in turning over Whitefield’s way of thinking. The Life of God, he recounted, introduced him to true religion as union with Christ rather than the discharge of duty. His moment of conversion was near, which he described in his Journal to have occurred around seven weeks after Easter 1735: “I was delivered from the burden that had so heavily oppressed me,” an expression that reflected the classic evangelical conversion narrative.
Whitefield sought ordination—we have already noted the impact of the first sermon—and then, quite possibly under Wesley’s influence, headed for the state of Georgia in early 1738. The American colonies held some fascination for these early revival leaders. The colony of Georgia had been founded in 1732, with Savannah as the main settlement from 1733. Both Wesley and Whitefield and, indeed, others were drawn here owing to the possibility of the conversion of the indigenous population as well as the opportunity to minister to the settlers. What soon became clear was that the impact of disease left many children orphaned, and raising support for a Savannah orphanage became a focal point of ministry in the Americas for Wesley and Whitefield. In his early visits to the state, Whitefield was shocked by the brutality of slavery.

Text on 18th-Century Dominican Music
Last June 2017 I participated in the Elvas International Conferences held in the Portuguese city near the Spanish border (old post about this city HERE). As a border city in medieval times, Elvas was in the frontier between Christians and Muslims. The 2017 theme for the conferences was the 750 years of the Dominican presence in Elvas, one of the first houses of the Order to be founded in Portugal.
My presentation centred in the musical activity in the Convent of S. Domingos during the 18th century. Information is very scarce so I titled the paper as “the possible reading” of the musical activity following the Dominican Rite. Besides the singing of chant of the daily hours, there was also the presence of organists and other musicians hired specifically for the convent’s major festivities.

The end of New Jersey’s red light camera program couldn’t come soon enough for Alex Valdez. In fact, it didn’t.
Valdez sat in his truck at a gas station on Routes 1 & 9 on Tuesday, staring at a printout of a $140 ticket for running a red light on the heavily congested artery south of Newark Airport.
By midnight, cameras that have recorded hundreds of thousands of red light violations in two dozen towns were scheduled to go dark as the much-scrutinized pilot program comes to an end after five years filled with controversy.
“It’s over? Thank G-d,” said Valdez, 27, of Perth Amboy, no doubt echoing the sentiments of untold numbers of motorists who have run afoul of the eye in the sky. “Some of the lights have warnings, some don’t. It seems like most don’t. It’s unfair.”
The Legislature would need to restart the program, but the prospects aren’t considered good after Gov. Chris Christie said over the summer that he wouldn’t be inclined to support its renewal.
The program’s difficulties have been well documented. A federal lawsuit resulted in refunds to hundreds of thousands of violators, and a computer glitch this year voided more than 15,000 tickets. In 2012, the state had to temporarily suspend dozens of the cameras over concerns that yellow lights weren’t properly timed to give drivers time to brake safely.
What isn’t in dispute is that the cameras have enriched the coffers of the 25 towns that signed up for the pilot program. One intersection in Linden produced more than 17,000 citations in a 12-month period, ranging from $85 to $140 each. An intersection on Route 70 in Cherry Hill produced more than 20,000.
Not every town embraced the cash windfall. Brick Township pulled the plug on its cameras earlier this year, claiming a negligible effect on safety, and Pohatcong Township said it would drop out of the program if it extended past this month.
“From my perspective, for your budget it’s great to have the cameras, but sometimes you have to look at what’s right and what’s wrong,” Pohatcong Mayor James Kern III said.

Rejecting the arguments of abortion-rights advocates, New York State's highest court ruled today that the state is not obligated to finance abortions for low-income women.
The decision by the Court of Appeals leaves intact an unusual two-tiered policy in New York State that requires the state to help pay for the abortions of poor women on Medicaid but not for low-income women who earn just enough money to rise above the poverty line but qualify for state-financed prenatal care.
A group of pregnant women and abortion-rights advocates had challenged that policy, arguing that it discriminated against low-income women and violated the state's constitutional obligation to assist the needy. The groups had sought to use the case to establish broader state constitutional protections for abortion than exist under Federal law. State Program Upheld
In its 6-to-0 ruling today, the high court rejected their arguments, upholding the constitutionality of a state prenatal-care program for low-income women that does not include abortion among a long list of health services.
But the court gingerly sidestepped some of the constitutional questions raised by the case, known as Hope v. Perales. As a result, lawmakers and advocates on both sides of the debate predicted that the abortion battle would now shift to the State Legislature, where proposals are pending to restrict access to and state financing of abortion services.
"The ruling is just devastating as far as our movement goes," said Kelli Conlan, executive director of the New York State branch of the National Abortion and Reproductive Rights Action League. "I think it points to the reality that we can't depend on the courts, that this battle is going to be won and lost in the electoral and legislative work we do."
Anti-abortion groups hailed the decision, saying that it leaves open the door to legislation to restrict abortion, including eliminating Medicaid-financed abortions, imposing 24-hour waiting periods and requiring minors to notify their parents before receiving abortions.
"If this had gone the other way, it would have made it difficult for the Legislature to pass any laws restricting abortion," said Michael P. Tierney, a lawyer with the Manhattan-based Legal Center for the Defense of Life. "But the court said this is essentially a political question, and its regulation and control must be left to the Legislature."
The case had been one of the most watched on the court's docket this year because many thought it would establish whether there is a fundamental right to abortion under the State Constitution. Today, court observers were divided on whether the decision written by Chief Judge Judith S. Kaye clarified the issue, and several said that ambiguities in the decision suggested that the court was sharply divided on the issue.
"She seems to say in passing that the right to an abortion exists," said Sidney H. Stein, a Manhattan lawyer who writes a column on the Court of Appeals for The New York Law Journal, "but she postpones for another day making a clearer and firmer declaration of that right." 1989 Program
The Prenatal Care Assistance Program was created by the Legislature in 1989 to reduce infant mortality among women not poor enough to qualify for Medicaid. Largely because of opposition from anti-abortion lawmakers, the program excluded abortions from the covered services.
Last year, the program served about 15,000 women with annual incomes of between $9,840 and $18,204.

COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT HEATED FLOOR INSTALLATION
Am I constrained by where I can get my heated floors installed?
Heated floor installations have long been chosen for bathrooms because smaller areas can be more effectively heated and retain heat for extended periods. However, innovations in the technology have led to more extensive implementation around the home and in commercial settings.
While tile flooring is superior for heat transfer, effective sub-heating systems that work beneath almost any kind of flooring, including wood and carpeting, are being used today. Bedrooms, kitchens, and most living areas can be kept to a comfortable temperature through heated floor installations.
You'll need to consider the advantages of installing heated floors in particular rooms based on effectiveness and your goals. Whether you will be using a water-based or electric heated floor system will require careful consideration before execution, as they both have varying levels of installation features, energy efficiency, and upfront costs. Talk with a heated floor installation expert listed on Thumbtack to understand the benefits and feasibility of bringing these heating systems to various rooms of your residence.
Will my heated floor installation be less energy-efficient than traditional heating systems?
How energy-efficient any heated floor installation is depends on various factors, including the kind of heating system you utilize, weather conditions, and the size of the space where it's installed. Nevertheless, heated floor systems have benefits over standard heating techniques such as baseboard heating or central air.
One especially inefficient flaw of baseboard heating or forced air systems is that they heat in localized areas. Conversely, heated floors deliver even heat coverage across the entire floor surface, eliminating cold spots and maintaining a steady temperature throughout the room. Central air systems will lose heat inside the ducts or through gaps, while nearly all energy generated through heated flooring comes up and out of the coverings.
Hydronic heated floor systems do not require a lot of electricity and can be operated by several different energy sources, including wood-fire boilers, oil, and solar. Both electric and water-based heated floor systems can accomplish the desired temperature for less energy consumption than common HVAC systems to help you save money on utility costs. Talk about your energy efficiency goals with a skilled heated floor installation technician on Thumbtack and get solutions that suit your circumstances and needs.
How are heated floors heated?
Different types of systems are available for heated floor installations, including:
- Hydronic (Water-Based) Systems - In water-based systems, flexible tubes are positioned beneath the floor, and heated water supplies heat to the surface. This sort of system is often connected to a boiler or water heater, though it could also be operated with solar energy.
- Electric Systems - Electric floor heating systems employ heating coils or mats constructed with conductive substances. These are positioned directly beneath the floor covering, and electricity is moved through the cables or mat to generate heat.
- Air-Heated Systems - Air tubes are positioned beneath the floor covering, through which hot air is passed to transfer heat to the room above.
- Solar Radiant Heating - This system employs solar thermal energy to heat water, which is forced through piping beneath the flooring. Solar radiant heating systems are typically used in conjunction with separate heating sources for added support during times of limited solar availability.
Each type of heated floor system has its benefits, and picking between them will come down to factors like existing infrastructure, cost, energy efficiency goals, and personal preferences. Consulting with a heating professional featured on Thumbtack will help you choose the right system for your residence.
Are more common heating systems a safer option for my residence compared to a heated floor installation?
When put in correctly, heated floors are much safer than many heating systems such as propane, woodstoves, and space heaters. Electric coils or mats are well-secured from damage beneath your flooring, reducing the likelihood of problems that can result in power failures and fires. Special insulation will also be installed between the heating system and your floors to stop overheating or water damage.
Heated floor installation can lead to a safer living environment for people and pets susceptible to allergens. HVAC units can stir up dust and pollutants in your house or expel mold spores that sometimes accumulate in moist ducts. You don't need to stress about regularly changing clogged air filters or cleaning vents to boost indoor air quality with the radiant heating system of heated floors. Talk about any concerns you have about the safety of a heated floor installation in your house with a reliable professional listed on Thumbtack.
A Pro on Thumbtack Can Deliver the Benefits of a Heated Floor Installation to Your Home in Andover, New York
Heated floor installations are a kind of radiant heating system installed beneath your floors that transfer heat to the surface. Two popular kinds of systems are employed in this home heating alternative – electric and water-based. Both types will deliver more energy efficiency and effectively warm your living spaces better than traditional baseboard or central air systems.
Electric heated floor installation consists of coils or mats placed between the subfloor and coverings. Hydronic systems are constructed similarly, except heat is generated with water pushed through pipes and heated with a boiler or solar power. A great advantage of this kind of home heating over baseboard or central air is that it offers better coverage throughout a room. Baseboard heating supplies heat around the perimeter of your room, while central air is warmer near vents. Heated floor installation can prevent the cold spots that happen as a result of more traditional heating systems and make it easier to maintain a constant temperature.
Both electric and water-based heated floor systems demand less energy, and water-based systems can operate with a wider variety of energy sources, like wood-fire boilers and solar. While tile is the most common and superior floor covering for heated flooring installation, hardwood, vinyl, concrete, and even carpet can all be used. Consult with a heated floor installation contractor to find out about your residence's compatibility with this kind of heating system.
Vetting the perfect pros to conduct your heated floor installation is easy with Thumbtack. Browse the top-rated service providers throughout Andover, New York and compare essential factors like client ratings, pricing, scheduling, and more. Enhance the comfort of your property and boost its value by hiring a trusted heated floor installer listed on Thumbtack today.

Video: Jimmy Kimmel Mocks Vegans in Light of Morrissey's Canceled Appearance
Jimmy Kimmel poked fun at Morrissey who canceled his scheduled performance on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" show due to "Duck Dynasty" cast appearance. Informing his audience that he had found a replacement for the rocker for the Tuesday, February 26 episode of his show, the comedian said, "There's a very good reason why I didn't dump the Duck Dynasty guys for Morrissey, and it's because they have guns."
Kimmel went on saying in his monologue, "He [Morrissey] keeps finding new ways to depress us." He then introduced a skit which promoted new "Duck Dynasty" product for vegetarians, "carrot call," for luring vegetables which was described as "yuppie food."
On Tuesday, Morrissey, through his representative, announced that he bailed on "JKL". "Morrissey is thankful for being invited to perform on Jimmy Kimmel Live tomorrow, Feb. 26," his statement read. "However, he cannot morally be on a television program where the cast members of 'Duck Dynasty' will also be guests. Morrissey would be honored to play the show, if 'Duck Dynasty' were removed."
The former vocalist of The Smiths added, "As far as my reputation is concerned, I can't take the risk of being on a show alongside people who, in effect, amount to animal serial killers. If Jimmy cannot dump 'Duck Dynasty', then we must step away."

I refer to the letter that was published in the Times of Malta on the 25th January 2011 under the header ‘Expropriate illegal property’ penned by Jimmy Magro whereby he makes a number of observations and recommendations on the two legal notices, the Scheduling of Penalties Regulations and the Daily Penalty Regulations, which have recently been published for public consultation.
While MEPA welcomes and will assess the recommendations submitted by Mr Margo, the Authority would like to clarify that these draft regulations have to be read within the context of the enabling Environment and Planning Act and the provisions of Schedule 6 that were approved by Parliament in July 2010. The Schedule clearly spells out that it is prohibited that planning applications are submitted to the Authority that seek to regularize illegal development carried out after May 2008 in protected areas and ODZ areas where the approved footprint has been exceeded, or on all scheduled properties.
The Authority encourages the public to view the two draft legal notices on the Authority’s website www.mepa.org.mt/public-consultation and submit feedback through email address: email@example.com by not later than Friday 11th February 2011.

Hi, I’m Chad.
When I got my first metal detector at a young age, there wasn’t much information on the internet about metal detecting.
A few years later, the internet had grown, but still, the information available for the metal detecting hobby was still incomplete, contradictory, and lacking.
So, I started Metal Pursuits in early 2020.

NFL quarterback is the most complex and prestigious position in team sports. He must have mastery of the entire offensive playbook, a strong strategic sense to maneuver his teammates in the right position, as well as the ability to make snap judgment decisions. Having the ability to throw from the pocket has always been important. However, there are a few NFL quarterbacks that have proven that the ability to move out of the pocket is equally important.
Dallas Cowboys’ quarterback Dak Prescott, Houston Texans’ quarterback Deshaun Watson, Baltimore Ravens’ quarterback Lamar Jackson, and Kansas City Chiefs’ quarterback Patrick Mahomes are great examples of quarterbacks that are prolific in and out of the pocket. Prescott, Watson, Jackson, and Mahomes provide stability at quarterback, considering they were each rated within the top 15 quarterbacks based on 2019 quarterback rating.
The aforementioned quarterbacks are reaching the end of their rookie contracts, and are looking forward to signing lucrative contract extensions. Prescott and Mahomes are currently in negotiation with their respective teams. Early indications are that neither Prescott nor Mahomes are willing to sign salary cap friendly deals so that the Cowboys and Chiefs can sign other key players. Nor should they.
Prescott has amassed a 40-24 record in his first four years in Dallas, including one playoff win. Mahomes has a league MVP award, a Super Bowl title, and a Super Bowl MVP award in only two years. It’s not their responsibility to construct and maintain a Super Bowl contender. Cowboys’ owner Jerry Jones has that responsibility, and if he can’t handle it, it’s his fault. Same with Chiefs’ general manager Brett Veach. He’ll have to find ways to either resign key players, or replace them with players willing to make less money while maintaining team success.
Watson and Jackson will be due for contract extensions after the 2020 season. They shouldn’t give any hometown discounts either, despite their recent playoff struggles. Watson and the Texans reached the divisional round in last year’s playoffs, relinquishing a 24 point lead before losing to the Chiefs 51-31. Jackson’s Ravens crumbled under lofty expectations in 2019 as Baltimore, the AFC’s top seed, lost in the divisional round to the Tennessee Titans 28-12.
Jackson, the league MVP in 2019, struggled to move the Ravens’ potent offense after running roughshod over the NFL in 2019. He threw for 36 touchdowns and six interceptions while rushing for an NFL record 1,206 yards at the quarterback position. During Jackson’s rookie season in 2018, the Ravens lost a home wildcard playoff game to the Los Angeles Chargers. Ravens’ fans figured Jackson and his teammates would come into 2019 stronger than ever.
Unfortunately, Jackson now possesses an 0-2 playoff record, with the Titans’ loss crushing whatever Super Bowl aspirations the Ravens had. Jackson’s game is ascending, as Baltimore is considered one of the favorites, along with Kansas City, to reach Super Bowl LV. That sure ensure that he, along with Watson, will be able to sign the most lucrative deals they can get.


In 1845, two of the British Royal Navy’s most advanced ships, HMS Terror and HMS Erebus, set out for the Arctic in order to force the Northwest Passage, a route that would connect the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans via waterways through the Canadian Arctic Archipelago, a labyrinth of more than 36,000 islands at the northernmost edge of North America.
Under the command of Sir John Franklin, who was overall leader of the expedition and captain of the Erebus, and Francis Crozier, captain of the Terror, the two ships made their way north but soon became icebound in Victoria Strait. By 1848, all 129 men aboard the two ships — including Franklin and Crozier — had died or vanished. Although they were likely plagued by starvation, illness, food poisoning and the brutal environment, the fate of most of the men remained unknown — along with that of the ships, until their wrecks were finally discovered under the ice in 2014.
The story of the Franklin Expedition has been fascinating source material for many works of fiction and non-fiction over the years, and in 2007, horror/sci-fi/historical novelist Dan Simmons published The Terror, his epic work of fiction based around the incident. In Simmons’ superb novel, the crew of the two ships descend into madness, savagery and even cannibalism — all while being stalked by an unseen predator that they first mistake for a polar bear but which turns out to be something far worse, far older and far more powerful.
Simmons is one of the best horror and sci-fi writers of the past 40 years — often blending both, along with fantasy, history and mythology — and his books include the classic science fiction series The Hyperion Cantos and the brilliant horror novel Carrion Comfort. But strangely, none of his works have been translated to the screen — until now. The Terror, a 10-part limited series adaptation of Simmons’ novel, premieres tonight as a two-hour special on AMC, starring Ciaran Hinds (Justice League) as Franklin and Jared Harris (The Crown) as Crozier.
Harris, along with executive producers/showrunners Soo Hugh and David Kajganich, were on hand at a studio in the Silver Lake area of Los Angeles recently to discuss The Terror, with props, costumes, models and presentations about the visual effects also on display as an introduction to the story’s bleakly accurate historical setting, a vast white wasteland beyond the reach of civilization.
Asked whether he and Hugh wanted to stick as closely to the book as possible or deviate from it, Kajganich remarked, “I think in the case of any sort of long form adaptation, you want to do two things at the same time. You want to honor what people love about the book, and for people who haven’t read the book, we wanted to give the experience in the show of what it felt like to read that book for the first time because it’s such a fantastic adventure.”
Kajganich continued to say that the showrunners nevertheless wanted to “mix things up,” explaining, “Our thematic take on the material is very close to Dan’s but required flipping certain things here and emphasizing other things. Characters who are very small parts of the narrative of the book are much bigger in our show, and we have other characters who are a bigger part of the book but are sort of reduced in the show. It’s all meant to give as surprising an experience watching it as it is to read the book, so we had a lot of fun in the writer’s room.”
“It’s such a pleasure to get source material that you love,” added Hugh. “And Dan gave us the greatest gift, which is his trust, because he understood that we’re not going to be able to tell this story exactly like the book. But because we were such big fans, I think Dave and I feel very confident in saying that fans of the book will be very happy with what we kept.”
Kajganich stressed that historical accuracy — as much as was possible, given the enigma of what actually happened to the crews of the Erebus and the Terror — was a key element in creating the show. “We have the benefit of some research that Dan didn’t have when he wrote the book,” said the writer and producer. “Since he wrote the book, both ships have been discovered and there have been a number of dives to bring up archeological artifacts. So certainly they know more about where they ended up.
“We tried very hard to include all of those things in our narrative, which certainly might have points of departure from the book,” continued Kajganich. “But I think people who get the bug from either reading the book or watching the show in terms of learning about this actual history will be gratified to see the lengths we went to, to try to make the show accurate to what they can find in the archeological record.”
For Harris, whose credits include TV series like Mad Men, Fringe and The Expanse, as well as movies such as Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows, Lincoln and The Man from U.N.C.L.E., he was instantly compelled to take the part of the haunted Crozier as soon as he read the material: “You know within a couple of pages whether you’re in good hands or not,” he said. “I got the script and it was just incredibly well written, but also had great restraint to it because one understood that there were areas where the story was going to go but they were holding back, you know? It was really exciting to see.”
Harris noted that taking on the role of Crozier presented, for him, an interesting challenge in terms of how to play a real historical figure. “There were three different Croziers,” he explained. “There’s the historical Crozier, there’s Dan Simmons’ Crozier, and then there’s the show’s Crozier. They’re all the same person but there are different aspects of the story involved in it. So it was interesting to talk to (Hugh and Kajganich) about which elements of the historical character to keep, which parts to let go of, where they had taken Dan’s character and what they needed from him for this story. At the end of the day, it’s their version of Crozier that you have to deliver, because they made decisions about the narrative, and that’s what the responsibility is, to fulfill that narrative.”
The fate of the real-life Crozier remains one of the Franklin Expedition’s enduring mysteries, and Kajganich — who was originally hired to adapt the novel as a feature film before it was developed as a TV production — says that the blending of genres is what makes The Terror such a unique tale.
“It’s a really strange mix of genres,” he says. “At points, it a horror story. At other points, it’s a high adventure story. There are episodes that we rolled and cut like westerns. This was a lot of fun. We made sure that everyone knew, all of our collaborators, particularly the editors of the show, that we didn’t need to be consistent. Episode 1 doesn’t need to feel episode 10 in our show, because the whole thing is this downward spiral… it was really important to us that people didn’t keep their habits of consistency. We wanted things to devolve in a way that the eye would understand even if the brain didn’t.”
Both Kajganich and Hugh also had nothing but praise for Simmons — who they say has seen and approved of their adaptation — and acknowledge that he has a wealth of other books just waiting to be adapted, including his legendary Hyperion quartet (which has been in development at Syfy). “Hyperion is the Holy Grail, right?” says Hugh. “It would be amazing to see that come to the screen. When you look at what he did in The Terror — the cross cutting of time — we knew we couldn’t do that for the television rendition of it, but the way he definitely crossed time and did so much research…few writers can take that on and succeed.”
“One thing that I love about Dan’s work, which is also something that I love about Stephen King’s work, is that he’s smart enough to understand that the genre elements that he’s sort of trafficking in can’t be the main force,” offers Kajganich. “It really has to be characters. You are either going to fall in love with the characters or you’re not. Dan has a very kind of slow, methodical way of building characters that you also see in someone like Stephen King or Dickens.” Kajganich concludes, “We owe Dan a whole heck of a lot… I’ve adapted things in the past that aren’t character based and it’s a horrible time.”
Surely it’s not as horrible a time as the doomed men of the Erebus and Terror are about to have, when The Terror premieres tonight on AMC at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT.


A few weeks before the opening of the Winter Olympic Games in 2018, Samsung revealed that it had made the limited edition Galaxy Note 8 of the 2018 Winter Olympic Games in Pingchang to commemorate its partnership with the world's largest sporting events.
Samsung has long been a world - wide Olympic partner, and in the past there have been such limited edition equipment.
It has distributed more than 4000 of the equipment to the 2018 Olympic families in Pingchang, and now Samsung will do the same for the Pingchang Paralympics.
Samsung sent the limited edition Galaxy Note 8 to the 2018 Olympic families of Pingchang, including the International Olympic Committee and the Pingchang Winter Olympic Committee organizing for preparations for the 2018 Winter Olympic Games and Paralympic Games.
The Samsung Corp reaffirms today that it will provide a limited version of Galaxy Note 8 for all the athletes participating in the Pingchang Winter Paralympics.
The package it provides includes a Galaxy Note 8, a fast charging battery pack and a special shell. When using this shell mobile phone will automatically switch to the Paralympic user experience.
The 2018 Pingchang official application will be launched at this time. The first release was the 2018 Pingchang Winter Olympics, which was downloaded more than 1 million 280 thousand times.
The application will also provide real-time information about the timetable for the Paralympics, the site, the state of the game, and the medals record.
For the limited edition Galaxy Note 8, the device itself is quite different from the Galaxy Note 8 introduced last year, but it has made some adjustments in vision, including the sparkling white glass decorated with Paralympic rings to celebrate the winter theme.
Visual adjustment has been applied to the framework of the device and on the S pen.
The 2018 Winter Paralympics in Pingchang will be opened in March 9th and will continue until March 18, 2018. More than 550 athletes from all over the world will take part in the Paralympic Games.
Besides, you don't expect to find a limited version of Galaxy Note 8 in a store near you, unless you are a player who goes to a South Korean competition.
