Lileks on the horror that is suburbia:
we drove deep into the exurbs for a little dinner gathering at her piano teacherâ€™s house, where a brilliant young kid played flamenco guitar on the porch. Home-schooled. Arranges his own stuff; wants to go into economics. As I twittered at the time: ah the culturally destitute burbs, with the sound of an expertly strummed guitar floating over the golf course behind the house. Good thing the street wasnâ€™t a cul-de-sac, or people might have come out with pitchforks. Stop that art there! This is the suburbs! Only grey, materialistic lives are permitted here!

Fri, Oct 20, 2006
We set off from San Jose around the usual 2a start time. I was a bit late picking Matthew up because I couldn't find a gas station open at that hour in my neighborhood. With the tank on empty, I drove to five gas stations before finding one open (which happened to be the one closest to my house, but in the opposite direction of my initial search). I picked up Matthew a short time later in Milpitas, and off we went. We watched the temperature drop steadily as we drove higher into the Sierra on SR120, hovering a bit below freezing when we reached 8,000ft. Matthew was nodding off for the last few hours of the drive and I found I couldn't stay awake either, so not long before Olmstead Point I pulled over and we slept comfortably for a bit more than an hour. It was just before 7a when I roused us again, and about 7:20a when we headed out from the Tuolumne Meadows parking lot. With overnight parking no longer allowed along SR120 and the campground and store closed, there were few visitors this time of year. Ours was the lone vehicle in the large lot that normally has almost a hundred cars during the summer months.
We hiked up Lyell Canyon for several hours until the turnoff to Ireland Lake. Matthew was ahead of me on the trail as usual, and out of sight at the point where I decided to head cross-country for a short-cut to the lake. The trail trends NW towards Vogelsang Camp and a trail junction, but the shorter route is to follow the drainage up towards the lake, staying on the NW side. Once out of the forest in the first ten minutes, the cross-country route travels through beautiful golden brown meadows. Often soggy or flooded earlier in the year, they were a delight to wander through on the way to Ireland Lake.
I reached the lake at 10:15a, scanning the shores and surrounding terrain for signs of Matthew. I was pretty sure he wouldn't have continued past the lake without me, so I relaxed on a rock overlooking the lake and waited for Matthew to show. He was some half hour in arriving, not because my route was that much faster, but because he had waited a similar amount of time at the trail junction wondering what had happened to me.
Parsons Ridge rose up behind Ireland Lake not far away. I suggested we might traverse around the lake and approach from the north rather than the usual route via the pass on the east side of the peak. Hoping to avoid the standard talus slog, Matthew readily agreed. We filled up on water as we passed by the lake's outlet, then continued traversing until we were beneath the steepest part of the Northwest Ridge. That isn't really saying a whole lot since the peak is pretty mild from most directions. We found the route surprisingly enjoyable, with class 3 scrambling on the more solid facets, class 2 in the talus-filled sections. The last few hundred feet featured a steep rock band that varied from class 5 on the right side to class 3 towards the left, and we picked our way through this section via a challenging, but not too scary route. Matthew commented how embarrassing it would be should we die attempting Parsons.
Once on the Northwest Ridge, we had a short section of almost-knife-edged scrambling for about 100 yards until it gave way to the easy, rounded slopes that continued for the remainder of the effort. We stopped short of the summit to investigate several cairns we assumed were meant to mark the county highpoint on the slopes below the true summit. Inside one we found a register of fairly recent origin, less than two years old. To further assure ourselves we had touched the county highpoint, we followed the spine of the ridge up to the true summit. In addition to the fine views (N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, NW) and delightful weather we found there, another register was tucked into a cairn at the north summit, also relatively new.
Earlier, Matthew had been talking about visiting Simmons Peak to the southeast after tagging Parsons, but I had given little credence to the liklihood of that additional bonus. It was already 1p, having taken us longer to reach the summit than either of us had guessed beforehand. Matthew was no longer interested in Simmons, nor the closer Amelia Earhart not far to the east. We descended what we figured would be the quickest way back to Ireland Lake via some straightforward class 2 boulder/talus slopes off the east side. Once at the lake we took the cross-country shortcut I'd taken on the way in, doing a little better job of it by avoiding the bit of bushwhacking I'd run into earlier. Once we were back down to Lyell Canyon we had another two hours of slogging it out back to the trailhead. With Matthew out of sight ahead of me on the trail, we came across two backpackers heading in for the weekend. One of them looked vaguely familiar though I only gave a short greeting as I passed them without stopping to chat. Later Matthew recollected a similar feeling that one looked like Steve Eckert. It was just before 5p when we exited the trail, still an hour of daylight remaining, and more importantly, plenty of time to catch dinner at the Whoa Nellie.
I sent an email to Steve Eckert when we returned from the trip, and sure enough it was he and a friend. They had gone in for an overnighter to tag Amelia Earhart and Parsons. That was the first time either of us had met in person though I've exchanged a number of emails with him. He commented that he should have likewise guessed it was Matthew and I passing by. Perhaps we'll look more carefully in the future!

Hello again wonderfuls! Is this where I get on the bandwagon? I searched for this little bit of fun a couple weeks ago with Miss Solomon's help and it arrived a couple days later along with some extra ink and a few accessories. Yipee! I can not wait to actually make a gocco print. I don't know what to make though.
I do need to get a few things finished up first, so I guess that I have some time to think about it. I am still working on the site. Obviously, it is still not perfectly perfect over here, but it is fast now! Yay. I can post in approximately four seconds and now I have the ability to upload only modified files (which was not possible with iweb). The house is a mess. An absolute mess. I've been working behind the scenes on quite a few things here and the house is certainly suffering. I look forward to returning your sweet e-mails and catching up with all of you. That will be my reward for finishing a few more of my chores. Communicating with you all is a wonderful reward. In the meantime, I am thinking of you and wishing you all well. Have a wonderful day dear ones. xox=vv.

Gichigami: Lake Superior is the largest of the Great Lakes and has more surface area than any freshwater lake in the world. Lake Superior is so large it could hold the water from all of the other Great Lakes, along with three more Lake Eries. With an average depth approaching 500 feet, Superior also is the coldest and deepest of the Great Lakes and is the reason why its fish have high levels of omega 3 oil.
Today's Lake Superior Fishery - healthy, sustainable, and scientifically managed: Today's Lake Superior commercial fishery is strictly regulated and scientifically managed by Tribal, state, federal, and Canadian governments who employ professional fisheries biologists. Today's science and a brave tradition of battling extreme weather ensure Lake Superior fishermen will continue to bring you the freshest fish from the biggest lake.
"the whitefish is most esteemed for the richness and delicacy of its flavour, and there is a universal acquiescence in the opinion formerly advanced by Charlevoix, 'that whether fresh or salted, nothing of the fish kind can excel it'" Henry Schoolcraft 1820

Looks like investors are finally waking up to the fact BAT & Brave Co. have a different gig.
Brave's Permissioned Advertising Market Place offer enables Ad Buyers/Placers to buy Ads in #BAT and, using the Brave Ad Network these Ads get sent to the Brave Browser User Audience of more than 10 million where users decide what ads they see.
BAT is in fact, different from investing in #BTC, #ETH and all the other 'tag along' alt coins and tokens, whose price behaviour sees investors setting up their trading app software algorithms to closely track and react to BTC price movements (of which, much of the 'up and down' price action is largely manipulated by whales and central miner pool holding activity).
You can go your own way.. BAT.
The past 7 days of BAT trading bears that out as BAT "breaks away from the pack" algorithm mentality built into trading desk software rules by investors, as wise investors interested in the Ad space are getting on board the BAT train, are now treating the BAT price being more influenced by Brave Ad wins with Ad placement Customers. (The whales and smart investors are indeed getting wiser)
BAT's value has steadily climbed on the Brave co news they are winning bigger Ad placement players like Amazon who are purchasing BAT to enable their ad placement, thus boosting the BAT price commensurately (and adjusting the Brave price of AD placement cost charged to the add placer as measured in BAT and US $ accordingly)
BAT Post 2020 Crash Complete Recovery: Yes. Nicer than Most.
Brave and BAT gets a BIG Vote of Confidence from Big Ad placement Companies
It's clear by such recent large buy actions by Ad placement giants such as Amazon, which is a ringing endorsement if there ever was one for Brave, that Brave co. has indeed built the next gen way forward for online advertisers looking for a targeted marketing edge to boost revenue and, clearly is the first mover in the emerging market segment of Permissioned Advertising, soon to be standard by 2022 in the EU and most jurisdictions looking to protect user data privacy.
Brendan Eich and co. at Brave, Respect and Kudos. Keep up the great work!
Nice to see BAT break away from the pack and go its own way as investors finally wise up.
Just one minor point, definitely more work needed on the Brave Store, in the area of variety and true novelty! (let's get creative will ya all!)
Brave/Bat Propeller Beanie anyone powered by brain waves (and solar) ?

(Reuters) – Frontier Communications Corp has filed for bankruptcy protection in the United States, the high-speed internet company said on Tuesday, as it restructures finances to cut down its borrowings by more than $10 billion.
The company, which warned on its ability to continue as a going concern last month, had been in discussions with some of its lenders and was also mulling restructuring options.
Frontier said it has entered an agreement with its bondholders and received $460 million in debtor-in-possession financing.
“With this agreement with our bondholders, we can now focus on executing our strategy to drive operational efficiencies and position our business for long-term growth,” President and Chief Executive Officer Bernie Han said.
The Norwalk, Connecticut-based company estimated its assets and liabilities both in the range of $10 billion to $50 billion, according to a filing in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York.
Frontier also said it would continue with the sale process of its operations and assets in Washington, Oregon, Idaho, and Montana to Northwest Fiber, and will also continue services and paying its vendors.

Merrill Garbus, Connecticut-native and creator of tUnE-yArDs, has spawned one of the top five indie albums of the year. She is in a distinct league, as 2011 has been a good year for emerging bands of this nature, spawning Foster The People, The Vaccines, YUCK and a new album from Smith Westerns, Garbus contends on this level. Her latest and second album under the tUnE-yArDs moniker, w h o k i l l, is more linear than her lo-fi freshman effort, Bird-Brains, though I hate to use a word that refers to straight lines when describing the tUnE-yArDs sound.
Garbus contrasts melodic screams with metrically precise notes, both vocally and musically. However, this is not formulaic, there is a bluesy, soulful and sometimes even high-pitched nature to Garbus’s voice as on seen proficiently on songs like “Powa,” that is something more free-spirit and natural. So while the album seems precise and tightly-wound in terms of drum beats, it is in fact very unscripted in feeling. The only difference is, there are boundaries to where it goes in terms of it being experimental or free-form in the way that her previous CD was.
The woman behind tUnE-yArDs cites her move to Oakland as the perpetrator behind her drastic change in sound. Garbus previously lived in Montreal, QC, where joined the band Sister Suvi, which included the guitarist for Islands, Patrick Gregoire. Her album with Sister Suvi, Now I Am Champion, is much more akin to w h o k i l l than Bird-Brain. There are still similarities in Merrill’s work, the technique for instance, but the influences are bolder.
While the New England songtress names 80’s icons like Sheena Easton, Cyndi Lauper and Debbie Gibson as inspirations, w h o k i l l contains fragments of jazz, hip-hop, afrobeat, blues, electronic AND rock. Rock being of course the foundation for which the tile is laid. Horns are blended with stylized, androgynous vocals and electric bass noise, put forth by co-writer/collaborator Nate Brenner. Garbus made the move to Oakland and met Brenner, who is part of a local jazz group there called Beep. Magic quickly ensued.
The single here is “Bizness,” released in February, with a snazzy video as iconic and commercially-friendly as a Target ad. You could even compare the “Bizness” video to OK Go’s “Here It Goes Again,” visually simple yet artistically pleasing. It is a colorful memory, children playing drums on their desks, flash mobs, an inside view of the singer’s mouth and teeth. The lyrics pound at you. “I’m a addicted yeah, don’t take my life away, don’t take my life away,” with the six layers of saxophone pursuing you like a flood.
This album is like a sap-covered tree you put your hand against. You can get these songs out of your head as easily as you can get that sap off your hands, though in the case of these songs, it is not unwanted. Quite the contrary, w h o k i l l is inviting. Inviting and crazy with peaceful tracks like the previously mentioned “Powa,” or aptly-named “Crazy” and also “Doorstep.” Or there’s the rapid hand-clapping usually found in some kind of urban 60’s neighborhood jump-roping song, as heard on “Killa.” Here Garbus is seething with irony, it’s oozing out her front teeth, out her pores as she speak-sings “I’m hip like a yuppie is hip, I cannot take it I am so hip.”
“Gangsta” nearly tops is all, with the saxophones bordering on a menacing mobster soundtrack and the drums pounding like Costa Rican howler monkeys. Overall tUnE-yArDs is the most versatile band around, offering more sound, imagination and genres than I’ve ever witnessed crammed into ten songs averaging four minutes. Merrill Garbus, currently signed to the label 4AD (Representing bands like The National, Bon Iver and Iron & Wine) is the underrated gem of the new decade. Even if she never makes another album, I can breathe easy at least knowing that this ukele-happy album, w h o k i l l, was unleashed upon the world.

A few years back, Yola took the biggest gamble of her life. Her journey as a singer, writer and featured artist had taken in toil, rejection and even a bout of homelessness, but, suddenly, there was a clearing. The artist born Yola Quartey (she’s also gone by Yola Carter, but now uses her first name only) felt the benefit of her part in a pair of Top 10 hits.
“I could have been my own rich daddy,” says the Bristol singer, who’s worked with Sub Focus and Duke Dumont and helped produce for Katy Perry. “Or, I could have just given up on doing my own music and done what everyone else does, get a house, settle down and… Blah, blah, blah. I had the choice between the security of a home, or a dream.”
Yola chose her dream, namely to make rip-roaring modern interpretations of her beloved rock‘n’roll, country, soul and American roots music under her own name. And now, she’s a four-time Grammy nominee who’s shared stages with Mavis Staples, Dolly Parton and Kacey Musgraves. But we’ll come to all that, first she finishes the story of her big gamble.
She “threw absolutely everything at the wall”, assembled a band and a team and “toured in a little van, everything was from the bank of Yola”. After showcasing in Nashville in 2016 and 2017, she caught the ear of Dan Auerbach of The Black Keys. Their creative relationship blossomed and Auerbach collaborated on Yola’s debut album Walk Through Fire. Named after the time her flat caught fire, it’s a juggernaut of a record, and Yola is still digesting what might happen on January 26 in Los Angeles, where she’s up for Best New Artist, Best Americana Album, Best American Roots Song and Best American Roots Performance.
I was told that nobody wanted to hear a black woman sing rock music
“It feels surreal, I cried intermittently for about 24 hours,” she says, before laughing wickedly. “Part of it was elation and disbelief and part of it was relief I wasn’t going to be on the streets again. It was nice to know that someone gave a crap that could actually change my life. It felt like I was being seen and that my efforts are being seen.”
The story of Yola’s exertions makes her success all the sweeter. “I work really hard at being really good at the basics, singing and writing songs,” she says. “Regardless of what I win or I don’t win, if it’s time to throw down, I am confident!”
This steely resolve has sure been tested. Music was banned in Yola’s house as a child and when she got out and into the industry, there were more barriers. “I was being told that I should be doing something people would deem more acceptable for a woman of colour from the UK. I spent so much time fighting to do what I want to do,” she says. “I will not mention this A&R or their major label, but I was told that nobody wanted to hear a black woman sing rock music. I was like, ‘Wow, so people are saying this shit out loud…’”
Now, Yola has the platform to change things. “People inherently have bias, and we’re talking about it,” she says. “As a result, people from different backgrounds are able to cut through, kids are able to see them and that contributes to what these kids think they can do.”
Yola’s mission feels unstoppable. “When you come from nothing, you haven’t got much choice,” she concludes. “Excel or don’t bother…”

Over the decades, the Chinese government has come under fire from both outside and inside their bordersaccused of everything from reproductive and human rights issues to female infanticide. In the aftermath of the colossal catastrophe, officials turned up the heat on a propaganda campaign to put the brakes on population growth (which was briefly interrupted by the turmoil of the Cultural Revolution in 1966 before resuming again in 1969). The study created the famous "hockey stick" graph, showing that the rise in earth's temperature over the preceding decade had occurred at a rate faster than any warming period over the last 1,700 years. 2014 study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences concluded that the rate of sea level rise over the past century is unprecedented over the last 6,000 years.

text: Twilight fans are, once again, crying in their Ed & Bella pillowcases. Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart have officially called it quits. I have not seen a single movie in the Twilight series. All I know is that Kristen Stewart looks like she hasn’t showered in a decade. My children have zero interest in the films either. My 13-year-old showed me this hysterical clip of Will Ferrell on Conan discussing the couple’s first breakup.

The anti-corruption police intervened with the state-owned Hydro-Québec earlier this year,STOPRU has learned. A general superintendent was demoted and can no longer grant contracts, but no charges will be laid against him.
According to our information, this employee of Hydro-Québec was targeted by investigators of the Unité permanente anticorruption (UPAC) who visited the Hydro-Québec offices and shared services Equipment Place Dupuis, at 855 rue Ste -Catherine East. The employee at the heart of the investigation has also been suspended without pay from March to the end of June, are we known.
A general superintendent plans, organizes and manages the work of employees and contractors. There are 15 superintendents at Hydro, 5 of General Superintendents, all the shared equipment and services division, which is the construction division at Hydro.
The name of the general superintendent in question appeared on the owner-builder license from the Régie du bâtiment du Québec in early August with those of five other people, including Réal Laporte, president of HQ Equipment and shared services. On August 24, his name was not there.
“Our investigators went to Hydro-Québec in May. They met people, “says the spokesperson for UPAC Anne-Frederick Laurence.
However, after the internal investigation of Hydro-Québec, the two parties, and UPAC Hydro have agreed not to refer the matter to the Attorney General of the province since there was no wrongdoing but only an ethical violation for a supplier, says a source close to Hydro-Québec.
Malfeasance implies a silver output, misappropriation of money says that same person. For ethical breach, rather it means a breach of trust.
The employee was able to reinstate the Hydro-Québec ranks with salary, but he was demoted. It may no longer grant agreements, ensures our informant.
“Right now, I have not much to say,” has indicated it when we reached by phone at his new place of work at Hydro-Quebec, Laval.
As for the company concerned, it signed an integrity pact with Hydro. Under this pact, she submits to an independent audit of its books, which is still ongoing, we did it said. During the process, the company can not bid with Hydro-Québec.
Note that this is the UPAC, not Hydro, which is responsible for the investigation. Once informed by the anti-corruption police, Hydro triggered the internal investigation process.
On the side of the corporation that has a monopoly on electricity distribution, it is mentioned fully cooperate with the UPAC.
“When the information has been brought to the attention of Hydro-Québec, a survey was conducted by the company, and the results were presented at the UPAC, says Marie-Elaine Deveault, Press Officer at Hydro. No charges were laid. Moreover, as it were ethical shortcomings, rigorous disciplinary measures were taken. Hydro-Québec has not paid nor taken any fees for work which would have accrued to an individual. ”
A second known case in months
The General Superintendent demoted is not the first employee of Hydro-Québec who are criticized its lack of ethics. Denis Hervieux, part of the Crown corporation, was fired in December 2014. He had exacted a particular parking his Porsche and his daughter had got a job of a supplier, according to what reported the Journal de Montreal.
At the time, the Minister Pierre Arcand expressed his confidence in the verification measures implemented by the corporation. “There are many controllers to Hydro-Québec, do not worry,” he had said.
In his year-end report in December, the head of UPAC Robert Lafrenière had told the media that his team was investigating Hydro and the corporation was even part of its four main priorities in 2015, the same as are municipal contracts, major road works and computer files.
Hydro-Québec constantly exchange with UPAC on a multitude of topics, they say internally at Hydro-Québec. It was impossible to know the number of ongoing investigations.


The Chicago Riverwalk is a continuous walkway and recreation zone that runs along the Chicago River, connecting the Lake Michigan lakefront with the heart of downtown Chicago. The Riverwalk was opened in phases, and it contains restaurants, bars, kayak and boat rentals, bike rentals, concert stages, and general park facilities.
In mid-2015, the second phase of the total Riverwalk plan opened, and the Chicago Riverwalk now extends from Lakeshore Drive to La Salle Street. This phase contains a number of food vendors on both banks of the Chicago River, providing visitors, residents, and nearby office workers plenty of options for a meal, a cup of coffee, or glass of wine. Food vendors along the new section of the Riverwalk include O'Briens Riverwalk Café, City Winery, and Flander’s Belgian Beer & Fries.
The last phase of the Riverwalk, which extends to Lake Street at the confluence of the Main Stem of the Chicago River with the North Branch and the South Branch.


AS IT HAPPENED: Bust the Budget rally in Bendigo
ALMOST 12 months to the day since Joe Hockey cut the ribbon on Liberal House Bendigo, the building saw a gathering of a different kind.
Held to highlight the one year mark since the now federal treasurer spoke on Bull Street, the Bust the Budget rally attracted up to 400 protesters on Tuesday.
Federal Member for Bendigo Lisa Chesters said the treasurer should have mentioned the government's plans for its first Federal Budget.
"He failed to tell the people of Bendigo that his first Budget would be a shocker.
"It would not only attack the most vulnerable - it would attack uni students, it would attack people on a disability pension, it would attack everybody.
"Bendigo today has stood up and sent a message to Canberra that they don't like it and they're not going to stand for it."
Protesters with flags, banners, placards and megaphones strode down View Street and Hargreaves Mall.
The Health and Community Services Union was particularly prominent, with their "Certainty for Sandhurst" banner leading the procession.
The National Union of Workers, Australian Education Union and local ambulance members also marched in numbers.
A bus brought students from La Trobe University Bendigo campus to take part in the march, which lasted for about an hour and turned plenty of heads down Hargreaves Mall.
He failed to tell the people of Bendigo that his first budget would be a shocker.Lisa Chesters
Shadow Employment and Workplace Relations Minister Brendan O'Connor was the first speaker on the podium in Bull Street.
He said it was important for Bendigo to have a voice on the national stage.
"It's cuts to pensions, it's cuts to students, it's imposition of taxes on the sick," he said.
"It is an unfair Budget and it is completely opposite to what the Prime Minister said before the election."
Held more than one month after a nationwide Bust the Budget movement in capital cities, marchers chanted for the sacking of Tony Abbott and Denis Napthine.
Patron Senator for Bendigo Michael Ronaldson chose to ignore the protest.
"The Bendigo community recognises that the Coalition is taking the hard and necessary decisions to clean up Labor's mess," he said.
"Labor's debt is already costing about $1 billion a month in net interest payments and that's borrowed money.
"No country can go on paying the mortgage from the credit card."
Ms Chesters said she would use opposition from Bendigo to try and block Budget measures.

Tonight’s show brings me back to one of the staples for local dirty metal gigs in Manchester, Star and Garter. Sadly, Bound In Fear couldn’t make it so the line-up for the show is Karma’s Puppet, Odysseus, Godeater and Osiah, the headliner in question touring in support of their latest album ‘Loss’.
This is no doubt going to pop off big time. I’ve been stalking Godeater’s Instagram throughout the tour so far and the scenes from each show looked incredible. I had a quick chat with the Godeater guys prior to the show and, so far, it’s been a solid tour and the rest of the dates are looking to follow suit.
Bang on time at half seven, Karma’s Puppet kick off the show – and this is LOUD. The vocals are a mix of growls and oddly Sam Carter (Architects) dirty wails, the sound on the whole is something closer to Bullet For My Valentine or Trivium, a mix of thrash and slower, chunkier verse riffs. To their credit they’ve got a really thick solid sound that’s doing a great job of filling up the room and making the floor shake.
The guitar work from these guys is properly solid stuff too, not afraid of using pinched harmonics while jumping between solid chugs, lovely stuff. The melodies complimented by a solid rhythm section, the bass player and drummer doing great work providing interesting fills and texture to everything else. A really solid show from these lads.
Next up, Odysseus go straight for the jugular with some absolute filth; there’s no other way to describe this other than some properly angry shit. Gutturals, chunky riffs mixed with atmospheric arpeggios? Sign me right up. Yeah, this is definitely home ground for me: seven strings with fanned fretboards, dingwall bass, gimme that djent.
This is legitimately the exact reason I’m always here right from the start for any gig I go to, you never know when a band’s going to come out of nowhere and knock you for six and these guys are it. There are all sorts of little bits in their sound: there’s Jinjer, Periphery, TesseracT, the absolute works. And man, they really know how to do the “miss a beat then slam” thing that djent is well known for. Top marks on this, you’ve made a solid fan here, more of that please.
Godeater start while I’m a bit busy blathering to the guitarist and singer from Odysseus and I run straight upstairs because there’s no way I’m missing this. Sadly, they’re missing a guitarist in this show, but they’ve made arrangements and I’m ready to get my face melted off with the Scottish tech-death bangers and they’re killing it right from the outset. I’ve found myself a perch on the seats and I can feel every single bit reverberating through my legs, this is the second time I’ve seen these guys in this same venue and their sound was made for thrashing it.
With new bangers like ‘A Pale Shadow’ and ‘You Are No Exception’, Godeater smashes through their set with a few tasty numbers from their last album, ‘All Flesh Is Grass’. As we progress through the set, the crowd warms up to them and starts to jump around, but with them playing a favourite of mine, ‘Silent Spring’, I just want to take in the spectacle. With a bit more crowd interaction, I’m seeing more movement, which is always great to see with a band of this quality. I feel the audience here may not know them super well, but you can see they’re breaking ground and getting people into it.
Another top show from these guys and always a pleasure watching.
Osiah, the headlining act, waste no time with introductions: they’re here to tear this place up and that’s exactly what they’re doing. The dirtiest riffs, the most horrifying gutturals, and relentless blast beats, not a single person in the audience isn’t gurning right now. One hundred percent gravel in every song, like listening to a hundred car pileup being delivered right to your ears.
This whole show is just non-stop. I don’t listen to deathcore a ton but there’s some that do break through that I know I like, and Osiah is one of them; seeing them live really is an experience in its own right. Every single riff is designed to be a mix of rhythmic assault and just outright extreme heaviness, the vocals are something that would make the Nazgul cower in fear. God what I wouldn’t give to see these, Brand Of Sacrifice and Shadow Of Intent on the same bill, it’d be carnage…
Every band tonight’s been outstanding, and even on a Wednesday night, sometimes you just need to give into the riff, right?
- The tour continues at Hobos in Bridgend tonight (Friday 17 December) and Brighton’s Green Door Store tomorrow, finishing at The Joiners in Southampton on Sunday (19 December).

Alnylam Pharmaceuticals has initiated a Phase III clinical trial of its RNAi therapeutic, lumasiran, to treat patients with primary hyperoxaluria type 1 (PH1).
Lumasiran is an investigational, subcutaneous medicine designed to target and silence hydroxyacid oxidase 1 (HAO1), which encodes glycolate oxidase (GO). This mechanism inhibits the generation of oxalate, which is associated with the pathophysiology of PH1.
The ILLUMINATE-C trial will assess the safety and efficacy of the drug in about 16 patients with advanced renal disease. It will enrol dialysis-dependent patients and those who do not need dialysis into separate cohorts.
The study involves a six-month primary analysis period, where participants will be administered with three monthly doses of the drug followed by monthly or quarterly maintenance doses.
The primary endpoint is the percentage decrease in plasma oxalate from baseline to six months.
Key secondary endpoints include other plasma oxalate measures and changes in urinary oxalate, renal function, nephrocalcinosis, dialysis frequency and mode, as well as frequency of renal stone events and systemic oxalosis measures.
Results from the Phase III trial are expected to be available late next year.
Alnylam Pharmaceuticals vice-president and general manager Pritesh Gandhi said: “This study complements our comprehensive clinical development plan for lumasiran, led by our ILLUMINATE-A pivotal study with results expected later this year and our ILLUMINATE-B study in young paediatric patients.”
The company also reported new positive efficacy results from the ongoing Phase II open-label extension (OLE) study of the drug.
As of 12 September, a 76% mean maximal decrease in urinary oxalate excretion was observed in all cohorts compared to Phase I/II baseline values.
All participants experienced a urinary oxalate level at or below 1.5 times the normal upper limit, while 68% achieved a urinary oxalate level that was within the normal range.
Patients also had an 82% mean maximal reduction in urinary oxalate and creatinine ratio after treatment with lumasiran across all cohorts.

EKF Diagnostics, the global in vitro diagnostics business, announces the worldwide launch of the new STAT-Site M ß-HB, following successful CE marking.
The new quantitative strip-based test for ß-Hydroxybutyrate (ß-HB) provides a quick and easy assessment of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), delivering results in less than 80 seconds. STAT-Site M ß-HB will be premiered at Booth #3614 at the American Association for Clinical Chemistry’s Annual Meeting and Clinical Lab Expo (AACC 2013) in Houston, 30th July to 1st August.
The presence and degree of ketosis can be rapidly assessed at the point-of-care by accurately measuring blood levels of ß-HB, which accounts for 78% of the three ketone bodies, from just 10 µL of serum or plasma. This provides useful information to provide quality care when monitoring DKA in newly diagnosed patients, whilst also reducing time and costs in an intensive care unit setting.
Also at AACC, highlighting the clinical utility of ß-HB for the screening and diagnosis of ketosis, the AACC Industry Workshop ‘Metabolic Disturbances That Lead to ß-Hydroxybutyrate and Ketone Bodies’ will be hosted by EKF on Tuesday July 30, 7–8 am. This will be presented by point-of-care specialist Dr. James Nichols, Professor of Pathology, Microbiology & Immunology and Medical Director of Clinical Chemistry at Vanderbilt University School of Medicine. Attendees will learn about the critical inter-relationships of glucose, diabetes mellitus and conditions that lead to DKA. Early reservation via [email protected]
is recommended as seating is limited.
Booth #3614 will play host to other very recently launched EKF products. These include another strip-based test for the rapid point-of-care analysis of haemoglobin for anaemia determination, STAT-Site M Hgb. This hand-held analyser combines low cost per test with portability and reliably delivers accurate haemoglobin results within 30 seconds from 15 µL of finger-prick whole blood.
AACC delegates will also have the opportunity to meet the new EKF Molecular Diagnostics’ team and view research use only products for cancer gene mutation enrichment and companion diagnostic applications. These include newly introduced PointMan™ DNA Enrichment kits which comprise three kits for enriching mutations in BRAF, KRAS and EGFR T790M genes associated with melanoma (skin cancer), colorectal and lung cancers. PointMan kits offer highly-specific and ultra-sensitive enrichment of mutant genes in a background of wild-type (normal) genes that is unmatched by existing technologies.
Julian Baines, Group CEO, commented, “This year’s AACC Clinical Lab Expo is the first time we have showcased our new EKF Molecular Diagnostics cancer gene detection technology portfolio alongside our clinical chemistry and near-patient testing products. Our experts will be on hand to discuss our ever broadening range of innovative and high-quality IVD diagnostics products. These are designed to rapidly and accurately detect and manage diabetes, anaemia, lactate and kidney related diseases, as well as support better informed decisions on patient treatments through companion diagnostics.”

Atlanta Jazz Festival, Chastain Park, Atlanta, GA • May 26, 2000
Dr. Nina Simone may have been helped onstage to kick off the 23rd Atlanta Jazz Festival, but once there, she needed no assistance the rest of night. From her beginnings as a classical pianist to New York jazz club sensation and her emergence as a vocal member of the civil rights movement, Simone has consistently set the standard for musical excellence. Equipped with a beautiful sense of timing on piano coupled with a voice rarely equaled, she had the sold-out crowd in the palm of her hand – which, at Chastain Park’s amphitheater, is a rare event, since most of the crowd is generally more interested in their Brie and wine than whomever is performing.
Opening with a Paul Robeson tune, she moved quickly from George Harrison (“Here Comes the Sun”) to Dylan (“Just Like a Woman”) and Bob Marley. Her own “Mississippi Goddamn” got the crowd worked up and allowed her great band to shine. Lead by guitarist and vibraphonist Alan Schackman, bassist Tony Jones, keyboardist Javier Collados, and percussionists Paul Robinson and Leopoldo Fleming, the group provided flawless backing for Simone’s brilliant piano playing. Her style – an artful mix of R+B, jazz, and classical – is deftly played, leaving great gaps and silences that are as important as the notes she finds.
Simone ended the evening with “My Baby Just Cares For Me,” from her 1954 Little Girl Blue debut – you’d recognize it from TV. But the crowd wasn’t ready to let her go. A section of the folks seated in front began singing a raggedy version of “Young, Gifted and Black,” and she rescued them, hammering out her song that became a defacto anthem in the 1960s.
Since she left the United States in 1974, Simone has rarely performed in this country, which is our loss. Being able to say you’ve experienced Nina Simone live is one of those things you’ll tell your grandchildren.

I give this Warm Texas Rain film my best vote. It is a must-have for anyone with just a small interest in the movie. This film ends more gallantly than it started, with a final fifteen minutes that will frighten and horrify you in equal measure. Warm Texas Rain would be very fascinating for all real devotees of Thriller genre. It is cool and all the stuff here looks very great. On this site you would find nice acting of your favorite celebrities like Frankie Thorn, Gina-Raye Carter, Steven Bauer who are real professionals and certainly know the class in acting. Yes, some acting scenes are a little bit too long and uninteresting and that is why the running time of the movie in 90 min. But it is the problem of director of the film, nor the actors. So, if you love to see some average a little bit long movie of year 2000 then Warm Texas Rain is before you! Just my IMHO. Warm Texas Rain movie is just a nice for one time watch. It could have been a great film but they ruined it with that old music. I hope you 100% will enjoy Warm Texas Rain movie. Thanks. 8)
It's a right flick exclusively for fans of Louis Mandylor, Nicholas Hill. Great effects, very good written, amazing direction, and great acted.
Movies in Thriller category bring you so many wonderful positive impressions? Then get congratulations because right now you came to the right place with the best movies of year 2000 in this category. Warm Texas Rain is a very cool movie and there are so many famous actors like Louis Mandylor, Nicholas Hill who are acting so earnestly. Length of the movie is 90 minutes that allow you to enjoy seeing impressive scenes with Louis Mandylor in the main role.
Why was the film bad? In my opinion it's a very fair movie, it was not original, there were fun minutes in story, its mood is really superb. I liked it!
Still waiting? Begin watching Warm Texas Rain film right now. Tweet Warm Texas Rain movie, and share with friends.

PILAR, Bataan — The Philippine Heart Association (PHA) has declared this town as the first CPR-ready municipality, or the first trained town in cardiopulmonary resuscitation in the Philippines.
Doctors Aurelia Leus and Orlando Bugarin, PHA national president and vice president, respectively, presented the award Saturday to Vice Mayor Mariano Caguimbal and other municipal officials at the government center here.
This town became host to the celebration of Heart Month carrying the theme “One Heart, One Nation” where residents availed of free screenings, laboratory tests, and medical consultations.
Bugarin, a well-known cardiologist in Bataan, is chair of Heart Month 2020.
The residents also got pointers on sudden cardiac arrest, angina awareness, one-minute workout anytime of the day and tutorial on hands-only CPR, and use of automated external defibrillator (AED).
Maricel Aquino, chief of the Municipal Disaster Risk Reduction Management Office, said the award was something every residents of the town should be proud of.
Aquino said it was through the initiative of Mayor Carlos Pizarro Jr. that they got the honor. “It will cascade down to the community on how to conduct the proper preparedness and enough information when it comes to disaster or emergency that include CPR and readiness of every citizen,” she said.
Municipal Councilor Ces Garcia said the initiative should be continued into the barangay level so the households will also learn to become ready.
Organized by the Philippine Heart Association’s Central Luzon Chapter, the CPR Excellence Awarding rite was the centerpiece of Heart Month 2020 Fair.
Witnessing the historic moment were members of the PHA Board of Directors: Doctors Gilbert Vilela, Ronald Cuyco, Rodney Jimenez, Vincent Valencia, Francis Lavapie (chair PHA Council on CPR), Jeffrey Patawaran (PHA Central Luzon Chapter president), and Luigi Pierre Segundo.
The PHA Healthy Lifestyle advocacy is codenamed 52100—five servings of fruits and vegetables, not more than two hours of screen time/not more than two grams of added salt, one hour of physical activity, zero sugared beverages, and zero smoking.
“Our dream is to bring CPR to every Filipino home,” Bugarin said. (PNA)

Earlier today, a friend on Facebook questioned the assertion in an Onion-style article that Millennials comprised “the overwhelming majority of the 2.5 million American veterans” who have taken part in the wars fought since 9/11. Because I’d rather prove myself wrong than argue without evidence, I decided to look up the numbers.
How many vets?
First off, let’s establish how many veterans we can say there are in the US that fit the criteria of serving in the Global War on Terror. From this source at the Census Bureau, I’d calculate that in 2014 there were 2,954,590 veterans who served from 2001 to the present, plus or minus 47,174. Other sources I’ve seen peg the number closer to 2.5 million, and I’m tempted to take the lower numbers; just because a soldier served after 2001 doesn’t mean that soldier was necessarily a part of the conflicts we’re interested in, but we’ll take the higher number, which we’ll round up to 3 million.
How many Millennial vets?
There are a couple sources on the Census Bureau for this, but the best one links to data that shows about 1.7 million Millennial vets in 2014. Easy-peasy.
This leads us to some pretty easy math, as 1.7 million Millennial vets out of 3 million total vets is about 57%, which is a clear majority. Is it overwhelming? I wouldn’t say so, but remember, that article referenced a total of 2.5 million vets from the Global War on Terror. As I said earlier, I think it’s entirely reasonable to use that number given the number of decent sources for it, which would give us 68%, which I would call an overwhelming majority. If I were Politifact, I’d rate this as “mostly true”.

140. Newton and the Time Machine by Michael McGowan
Newton and the Time Machine by Michael McGowan
Illustrated by Shelagh McNulty
Finished: Aug. 12, 2008
First Published: May 13, 2008
Genre: Children's fantasy
Reason for Reading: Review Copy sent to me by Harper Collins Canada. Qualifies for the Canadian Challenge.
Newton was having serious, serious doubts that his latest invention - a time
machine - was ready to be field-tested.
Comments: This is a sequel to Newton and the Giant, which I haven't read. Newton needs someone to test out his new time machine and his friends, the giant King and Queen of Merriwart, volunteer. The machine seems to be a success until suddenly there is a smoky explosion and it disappears leaving nothing behind but a 4 leaf clover. Sure that the treacherous Leprechauns are involved Newton, his best friend Max, Commander Joe (his talking plastic soldier) and Witch Hazel all help to recover the missing King and Queen, not to mention the time machine.
A fun romp that the younger set, 8-11 yo, are sure to enjoy. With non-stop action and humour of the toilet variety, this is definitely going to be enjoyed by boys mostly. The plot and action are fun but the characters are flat and one-dimensional. Newton's quintuplet soccer-fiend brothers are simply a nasty nemesis for Newton possessing no other human qualities. But sometimes a book is just meant to be silly and fun and this fits the bill.

Just over 11 years ago, HSBC asked its shareholders to back an unprecedented £12.5bn rights issue. The March 2009 capital raising — at the time, the biggest ever by a British company — was among the first of many by shell-shocked banks over the following few years. Some were funded by commercial investors, others by taxpayers. All were crucial to save the global banking system from collapse after the 2008 financial crisis.
As the world reels from coronavirus — and effects that are set to be an order of magnitude worse than the 2008 crash — it is striking that the question of whether banks will again need new capital is barely being asked.
That is partly because so many other problems are rightly taking priority — people’s health; whether businesses can survive. But the health and survival of banks is a pretty essential question, too. As in any economic crisis, banks will bear the brunt. So are they sufficiently resilient to absorb the impact and then power an economic recovery?
So far, credit losses look manageable. In the first quarter of 2020, banks increased loan loss provisions sharply, but they are still at a fraction of their 2008 peak.
To try to offset the pressures, governments and central banks have intervened at unprecedented speed and scale, injecting hundreds of billions of dollars of grants and subsidised funding.
At the same time, banks have much stronger capital buffers than when the 2008 crisis hit. HSBC’s core equity tier one capital ratio — the principal measure of balance sheet strength — is 14.6 per cent today, underpinned by $144bn of tangible equity. Back in 2009, it was just 8.5 per cent, even after that mammoth £12.5bn capital raising.
In some jurisdictions, banks have protected capital further by not paying dividends, following strict instructions from regulators. Here, too, HSBC has been a protagonist. Long one of the biggest payers on the FTSE 100, the bank’s stock yielded close to 6 per cent at the last count. Its dividend stream is a primary source of income for thousands of private investors in Hong Kong. But last month, for the first time in nearly 75 years, it cancelled its dividend, preserving billions of dollars in the process.
The Financial Times is making key coronavirus coverage free to read to help everyone stay informed. Find the latest here.
But all these mitigating efforts might still not be enough, given the potentially huge scale of this crisis. Even if the banking system’s protections are double or even triple what they were in 2008, things could easily be doubly or even triply bad.
Early-warning indicators have already left 2008 in the shade. Twelve years ago, US unemployment topped 7 per cent. Today it has already hit nearly 15 per cent. A global recession, or even depression, is now widely predicted. The Bank of England forecasts that UK GDP could fall 14 per cent, making the 2020 slump the worst for more than 300 years.
At the same time, bank loan loss provisions are likely to be only the tip of a looming iceberg, despite new accounting rules that they should provision upfront against all envisageable losses on non-performing loans. UK regulators actively discouraged banks from booking huge charges on souring loans, fearing this would hold back new lending. The granting of payment holidays has also allowed banks to avoid booking large losses in the short term, lessening the pressure on capital.
But make no mistake: that pressure will come. Last week, PNC, America’s ninth-biggest lender, announced the sale of its entire 22 per cent stake in asset manager BlackRock, an early example of bank capital raising in the current crisis. Spin was applied, suggesting the bank might use the funds to buy rivals. A more powerful rationale is this: the estimated $5bn gain will have boosted its CET1 capital ratio from a lowly 9.4 per cent to a more loss-absorbent 11.5 per cent. Expect more of the same in the weeks and months ahead.
At the FT’s Global Boardroom online conference last week, an audience of nearly 6,000 who tuned in to a banking panel were polled on this topic. Only 6 per cent thought none of the world’s top 50 banks would need to raise new equity capital. Half thought that more than 20 per cent of banks would have to do so. Lenders that seek funds early are more likely to keep investors with them. Just ask HSBC. In the six months that followed its 2009 capital raising, its share price doubled.

Actor Peter O’Toole, who starred in Sir David Lean’s 1962 film classic Lawrence of Arabia, has died aged 81, his agent has said.The Irish-born star began on the stage in Bristol and London aged 17, but his big break was when Sir David cast him as British adventurer T E Lawrence. It earned him the first of eight Oscar nominations, with others coming for such films as Becket, The Lion in Winter and Goodbye, Mr Chips.
He received an honorary Oscar in 2003, although he had initially refused to accept the award.
In recent years he has provided the voice of Anton Ego in Ratatouille and appeared in Matthew Vaughn’s Stardust. In 2012, he announced his retirement from big-screen acting, but returned to make what is now his final film. Katherine of Alexandria.
He was also set to star in biblical drama Mary with Ben Kingsley and Julia Ormond.

A stacking method to study the gamma-ray emission of source samples based on the co-adding of Fermi LAT count maps
Objects with low integrated gamma-ray fluxes that are not detected individually may become detectable when their corresponding count maps are added. This paper describes a method that can be used to
analyze stacked data obtained with the Fermi Large Area Telescope.
We present a stacking method that makes use of co-added maps of gamma-ray counts produced from data taken with the Fermi Large Area Telescope. Sources with low integrated gamma-ray fluxes that are not detected individually may become detectable when their corresponding count maps are added.
The combined data set is analyzed with a maximum likelihood method taking into account the contribution from point-like and diffuse background sources. For both simulated and real data, detection significance and integrated gamma-ray flux are investigated for different numbers of stacked sources using the public Fermi ScienceTools for analysis and data preparation.
The co-adding is done such that potential source signals add constructively, in contrast to the signals from background sources, which allows the stacked data to be described with simply structured models. We show, for different scenarios, that the stacking method can be used to increase the cumulative significance of a sample of sources and to characterize the corresponding gamma-ray emission. The method can, for instance, help to search for gamma-ray emission from galaxy clusters.
Image of 33 stacked gamma-ray sources
If sources are too faint to be visible individually, stacking of these sources
allows their gamma-ray emission to become clearly visible and provides a measure of the corresponding average gamma-ray flux.

Harrogate and Rural District Clinical Commissioning Group (HaRD CCG) have at their Governing Body meeting made the decision to only prescribe gluten free products to the most vulnerable people living with coeliac disease in our community.
In 2015, the NHS spent £26 million on prescribing gluten free food with £16.7 million spent on 840,000 prescriptions for bread. The current cost of prescribing gluten free products across Harrogate and the rural district costs around £90,000 a year and with the growing financial restraints placed on the NHS, the CCG is reviewing what it commissions.
Dr Rick Sweeney, Governing Body member at HaRD CCG said
I would like to thank all those who responded to the CCGs survey. As a Governing Body, we have made the decision to restrict prescribing gluten free products due to the significant increase in their availability in supermarkets and via home delivery services. The NHS does not provide food on prescription for other groups of patients whose diseases are associated with, or affected by, the type of food they eat and in line with many neighbouring CCGs across Yorkshire and the Humber, we believe this is the right action to take.
Feedback from the survey showed us that 43% of respondents live with coeliac disease with an additional 9% either caring for a child or adult in receipt of gluten free products on prescription and understandably they were unhappy with these proposals.
The CCG recognises that this proposal may not be supported by patients currently receiving gluten free foods on prescription and whilst the price of standard retail gluten free products is now considered affordable, the CCG appreciates, it may be less affordable to some. However the CCG’s responsibility is to the whole population of Harrogate and Rural District.
Through the survey, the CCG received a number of comments around patients who might be classed as ‘vulnerable’. The CCG is committed to ensuring these patients are supported by developing guidelines to aid clinical decision making in General Practice to identify these vulnerable patients.
The CCG will continue to support patients living with coeliac disease in following a gluten free diet, with advice available through various patient support organisations, like Coeliac UK, dietician support and the Living Well team at North Yorkshire County Council on how to achieve an appropriate diet through natural and manufactured gluten free foods.
Coeliac UK is very concerned by the announcement by Harrogate and Rural District CCG that from this autumn all gluten-free prescriptions for people in the region who have coeliac disease will be cut.
Although the charity is pleased to learn the most vulnerable, or those in exceptional circumstances, will still be supported, it is concerned that although 65% of respondents to the consultation disagreed with the CCGs proposal to no longer routinely fund prescriptions for gluten-free products that these opinions were discounted.
The charity also strongly refutes the claim in the board papers that:
The CCG is assured of a good geographical spread of retail outlets across the locality, with a wide and price competitive choice of gluten free products for self-purchase.
Sarah Sleet, chief executive of Coeliac UK, the national charity for people with coeliac disease said:
We have clear evidence from in depth research that the cost of key gluten-free products such as breads and flours in supermarkets has not reduced. We sent this information to the CCG but it has been ignored.
Gram for gram, gluten-free bread is six times more expensive* than regular gluten containing bread in the supermarket. Whilst other gluten-free food staples such as pasta, are three to four times more expensive than gluten-containing counterparts and availability is limited in rural areas, discount supermarkets and small stores. Having access to gluten-free staple foods on prescription provides an essential level of support to individuals trying to keep to the gluten-free diet which is the only treatment for coeliac disease.
Ms Sleet said:
We would urge anyone who will be severely affected by this decision and wish to make a case for prescriptions as an exception to contact the Charity to see how we can take your case forward.
Coeliac disease is a serious autoimmune disease caused by a reaction to gluten. When gluten (a protein found in wheat, rye and barley) is eaten, damage to the gut lining occurs. There is no cure or medication for the condition; the only treatment is a lifelong, strict gluten-free diet. If someone with coeliac disease doesn’t stick to a gluten-free diet, the disease can lead to other conditions such as malnutrition, osteoporosis and small bowel cancer.
.Comparative costs for gluten-free bread and gluten containing bread as of 4 July 2016
Price per 100g
Price per loaf
Tesco-free from white sliced (400g)
Tesco-free from fresh bread (550g) (white or brown)

The National Institute of Health and Care Excellence (NICE) estimates that the cost of gluten-free food to the NHS equates to £194.24 per diagnosed patient per year, making it an extremely low cost treatment. Last year, NHS Harrogate and Rural District CCG spent approximately £90,000 on gluten-free foods for both adults and children.
In England, prescriptions for gluten-free food are not free of charge unless someone already qualifies for free prescriptions. Currently 63% of CCGs across the country adhere to National Prescribing Guidelines, providing recommendations for GPs and policymakers on reasonable amounts of gluten-free staple foods such as bread, flour and pasta per patient per month.
The CCG will introduce this change in the autumn and will consider the NICE (The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence) Quality Standards report on coeliac disease when it is published in October.


The flow pattern in short ducts with aggressive curvature can lead in some cases to an asymmetric flow field. In the current work, a two dimensional honeycomb mesh was added upstream of the curved duct to create a pressure drop across it, and therefore an increased velocity deficit in the boundary layer profile. This velocity deficit led to a stronger streamwise separation, overcoming the flow mechanisms that result in the asymmetric flowfield. Experiments were conducted at M = 0.2, 0.44 and 0.58 in an expanding aggressive duct with square cross section with an area ratio of 1.27. Pressure data, together with Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV), verify the symmetry of the incoming flow field. Steady pressure distributions along the lower surface of the curved duct were obtained, as well as steady and time dependent total pressure distributions at the aerodynamic interface plane, enabling the analysis of the flow characteristics throughout the duct length. The effect of inserting a honeycomb was tested by increasing its height from 0 to 2.2 times the baseline flow boundary layer thickness upstream of the curve. Crosstream flow symmetry was achieved for specific geometrical configurations with a negligible decrease in the pressure recovery.

Gremio talisman Luis Suarez could soon be linking up with former Barcelona teammate Lionel Messi at Inter Miami.
The 36-year-old forward is expected be reunited with his ex-colleague and close friend in South Florida this summer.
Suarez, who joined Gremio earlier in 2023 on a two-year deal, is ready for one last hurrah with World Cup winner Messi Stateside.
According to ESPN Brasil, the Brazilian club are aware of the striker’s intentions of wanting to leave.
Gremio are likely to sanction a move to allow Suarez to leave, which would see him join Messi, Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba at Miami.
Suarez is understood to be prepared to fund the move himself, by negotiating a settlement, repaying all the wages he received in 2023.
It is believed a fee of around $10m [£7.8m] will be enough to remove him from his current contract this month.
Gremio coach Renato Gaucho has since labelled the situation a ‘problem’, with Miami having already made room for the Uruguayan’s arrival.
The club have purchased an extra international slot from Western Conference side San Jose Earthquakes in exchange for $150,000 [£117k] in 2023 General Allocation Money (GAM).
Since joining Gremio in January on a free transfer, Suarez has netted 16 goals and assisted nine more in 31 matches.
“On the 2nd [of August when the transfer window closes in Brazil], this soap opera will come to an end,” Gremio coach Gaucho said after his side’s 1-0 defeat to Atletico Mineiro.
Suarez, who watched the loss from the stands, has been out of action since May, nursing a knee injury.

Since 2011, Fert assists farmers in the Samtskhe Javakheti region of Georgia to develop production and dairy farming. In 2014, from September the 28th to October the 5th, a delegation of 16 Georgians – composed of 8 breeders of GBDC technicians and representatives of the Ministry of Agriculture – went to meet the players in the dairy sector in the Massif Central.
Farmers and other stakeholders in the Georgian agriculture had to observe how milk is produced in France and how French farmers drive their farms and feed their animals. It was also to see how these farmers organize collectively to benefit from technical assistance to manage the health aspects, purchase equipment or process and sell their products.
During this stay, Georgian farmers have retained including:
- The meeting with the breeders of the Loire themselves process the milk into cheese or sell it to a small local family structure. The products are varied and cheese benefiting from a protected designation of origin (PDO), Fourme Montbrison.
- A tour of the dairy cooperative Jeune montagne, in Aveyron allowed them to discover the history of the cooperative and very good valuation of milk; breeders have noted on this occasion that it is possible to differentiate a product with a strong identity and enhance it. Over 40 years, members of the cooperative worked on the genetics, diet and transformation: a long-term workthat was worn over time by farmers.
- A meeting with young farmers, installed thanks to the aid which are reserved for them (subsidized loans Young Farmer) and even sometimes using the local cooperative.
- The presentation by the Director of the activities of the Chamber of Agriculture of the Aveyron; many ideas to project and hope that tomorrow institutions are built in Georgia that farmers express their views and play their role in the definition of agricultural policies.
The study tour ended with a visit to the Summit of Livestock Clermont-Ferrand, where the dairy animal performance and small dairy equipment did not fail to seduce the entire delegation.

THE QUEEN’S SPEECH – REVIEW – Yesterday saw the release in streaming of the sequel to Tom Hooper’s Oscar winning The King’s Speech, entitled The Queen’s Speech and starring Elizabeth Windsor.
The King’s Speech was a hugely successful film, both commercially and critically and many had high hopes for the sequel The Queen’s Speech, but unfortunately this pedestrian drama is plagued by an uninspiring screenplay, a wooden central performance and an embarrassingly short running time. So where to start? First of all the decision to cast Elizabeth Windsor as ‘herself’ has to be seen now as a huge error. Obviously one that the producers were forced to make after Dame Helen Mirren proved more expensive than simply getting the real thing but as good a monarch as Elizabeth is, she is not a great actress. her line readings were without any kind of emotional warmth and her eyes took on a shark like sheen as she spoke about light and darkness. Gone was Colin Firth’s fragility as the stuttering King George and in was the icy self-confidence of a ruler who has not once doubted her own right or capacity to reign. The script was a jumble of cliches without a single hint at tension, interiority or drama. What might have saved this woeful one note drama would have been the introduction of a Geoffrey Rush kind of character – perhaps played by Ray Winstone – someone called Ralph or Dennis, someone whose everyday normality would contrast and humanize the regal and give us a renewed sense of respect and obedience to the Crown. As it is, The Queen’s Speech feels thin and under-written, emotionally torpid and woefully simplistic. One can only hope that the third projected film in the trilogy Charles in Charged will produce something more stimulating or at least funny.
THE IMITATION GAME: REVIEW – Maths boffin Alan Turing (Benedict Cumberbatch) invents the computer, wins World War Two and escapes marriage with Keira Knightley.
The problem with posthumous fame is you’re f*cking dead. Turing was a genius, a genuine innovator and thinker whose ability to solve problems was instrumental in cracking the Enigma code and bringing the war to an early close, saving millions of lives. It is difficult to overstate his achievements, especially in a society which chooses to deify a marketing wonk like Steve Jobs. Of course, he didn’t expect a medal, such is the nature of espionage and he knew the territory. The secrecy continued because MI6 carefully captured as many Enigma machines as it could following the war and doled them out to allies who – unaware that the code had been broken – used them for sensitive communications to the delight of MI6. Turing’s lack of fame was turned to infamy when he was charged with gross indecency – homosexuality – (BTW can we appropriate ‘gross indecency’; I like the ring of it) and offered the choice of two years in jail or chemical castration. His death soon after was shrouded in some suspicion – was he bumped off, or was it suicide? One way or another there has been a lingering sense of injustice, that a man who gave so much to his country was let down by that same country.
No Google doodle can redress such wrong, nor even the royal pardon he received from Queen Elizabeth II (and doesn’t a pardon still recognize the legitimacy of the unjust law?), but what about a Benedict Cumberbatch movie?
Well, first of this is a handsomely made, well acted and entertaining drama in on-going series to show how Great Britain won the war, overcoming speech impediments, social embarrassment and floppy hair along the way. It’s like The King’s Speech with hard sums. Cumberbatch is proving himself the genuine article, a fine character actor and Keira Knightley as Joan Clarke, as a colleague and confidant, is not annoying! Matthew Goode as the more socially able boffin Hugh Alexander. It’s a pity that Charles Dance’s Admiral Dennison becomes the villain, considering he also was responsible for facilitating the success of the code-breakers and the antagonism is an invention of the filmmakers. More seriously, an invented subplot featuring Soviet mole John Cairncross is poorly thought out. Cairncross never worked with Turing and the suggestion that Turing knew of his activity both does a gross disservice to Turing (making him in effect party to treachery) and enforcing the prejudice that homosexuals are open to just such blackmail and therefore shouldn’t be employed in the service of the country.
These objections are not trivial, especially for a man who was so maligned and shabbily treated. However, that said,

HOLLYWOOD – In an ongoing campaign to drown out the dissonance of stupidity, Studio Exec sings lead vocals of sense and truth, battling a dense cacophony of dumb with a rousing aria of 5 FACTs.
1. Tom Hooper started his career making a series of porn films called Byker Grove from which all the sex was later removed. The far shorter films were shown on British television and horrified the nation, leading to legislation banning the city of Newcastle from ever being shown on screen again.
2. While preparing The King’s Speech Hooper insisted on an audience with the Queen to go over various incidents that would be covered in the film. He then insisted on sitting on the Queen’s lap, ‘to see how it felt’. He also changed the race of the main character from German to English because Colin Firth couldn’t do a German accent.
3. While on a press tour to promote The Damned United, Mr Hooper admitted to never having actually watched a game of football and being unsure what it entailed. It became clear that early in production he had mixed it up with polo and the budget had gone up on account of all the horses he had bought. ‘I sold them to Pete Jackson,’ he boasted, eating a cheese and onion pie (who had them killed).
4. In a daring move, Tom decided that the cast of Les Miserables should all sing live during filming. For the most part this worked, but if you listen very carefully to the scenes involving Russell Crowe Tom Hooper’s voice can clearly be heard off camera saying, ‘Oh God make him stop, oh no please, what have I done? Sweet Jesus, no!’
5. Tom Hooper comes from a famous theatrical family steeped in the traditions of English music hall. However, Tom is ashamed of this and changer his name to Hooper from Cooper in order to avoid the association. His facial features are also a little bit too small for his head.
