Design Week Philippines is a multi-faceted platform that brings together creative visionaries from diverse backgrounds and disciplines in a series of programs and events that celebrate design and artistry. It is a celebration of the arts and design aimed at fostering creativity and spurring innovations.
In the 8th edition of Design Week Philippines, the Design Center focuses on rebirth—from old to new, from mainstream to the path less travelled. From its previous edition of Retrospection, Design Week breathes a new life to Intramuros: from a place of old-world beauty into a place where inspiration and culture is rich, and where the most iconic traditions in Philippine Design reign supreme. This edition highlights renaissance, a resurgence of a love of things to incorporate in modern-day design solutions and works.
Design Week Philippines promises a fun-filled, creativity-charged nine-day festivity through its design talks, design tour, creative workshops, installations, weekend market, and more.
Design Talks, a major event component of DWP, is set to feature a morning session on culture and heritage development and creative hub development in Intramuros to aid in the revitalization of the Walled City as a vibrant creative environment, in support of Intramuros Administration’s mandate to preserve the rich, cultural, and historical heritage of the 64-hectare walled city of Intramuros. The AM sessions will feature cultural heritage conservation expert Associate Professor Eric Zerrudo; and geographer and cartographer David Garcia.
The afternoon discussions of Design Talks will tackle experience design, entrepreneurship, and social change and innovation as it gathers thought leaders from incubators, accelerator, startup companies, and aspiring gamechangers who want to transform every Filipino’s life through innovative ideas and entrepreneurship. The Design Talks is set on 16 October 2017 at the Ayuntamiento Marble Hall, Intramuros, Manila.
The Design Tours, in partnership with Bambike, promises its participants an enriching heritage tour around Intramuros on bamboo bikes. Kids will also get to experience the fun as they ride on bamboo push bikes, specifically designed for toddlers, in a small adventure zone in Plaza Moriones. Bambike will offer 50% discount rates for both adult and kid tours during Design Week.
Online news and feature portal WheninManila.com headlines the Design Week Philippines October 2017 workshops. WheninManila.com is set to conduct a digital blogging workshop on 15 October at Casa Manila.

text: In other world, people were gathering around the fortune tellers. They were yelling: It's a "waken!" It's the omen about of a "Waken" showing up in this world! Find it! Find it before anybody else does!" There was a man standing on top of the hill and watching when Nuriko fell from the sky. She landed on the bed of golden moss, with lots of huge roots of tree suround the place. After Nuriko got up, she looked around and started to panic. She called her family and her friends' names. ... all of sudden, lots of animals were running away from behind her. Nuriko turned around and saw a disgusting-like worm with fangs around its body eating an animal. After it finished eating, it looked at Noriko and moved toward her. Noriko just stood there in shock. In time, a man appeared and grabbed Nuriko away from it and killed the beast with a sword. Noriko looked up and saw a good looking young man with long dark hair, dark eyes holding her. She tried to thank him, but the young man couldn't understand the language she was speaking. He decided to take Noriko on the way out of forest and at that point, they introduced themselves. The man's name is Izark. He thought to himself very suspiciously: "This girl is a "Waken?". If she was truly a "Waken," then someday he would have to kill her!By the sunset, they arrive at a small town, lots of soldiers were hurt during the battling about the "Waken". People were talking about the "Waken." everywhere. Few years ago, many fortune tellers were trying to find the "Waken." It would wake up the "Ghost from Heaven", but none of them could tell what the "Waken" looked like and where it was. Izark and Noriko found a hotel to stay for a night. Next day, Izark suddenly collapsed after he got up from the bed, and Noriko rush toward him, but Izark yelled at her: "Don't touch me!!!"

Studies and Research
A gospel is any of the four New Testament books narrating the life, death and teachings of Jesus - they have been named Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John and placed at the beginning of the New Testament.
Gospel, literally translated, means "good news" deriving from the Old English "god-spell" translated from Greek (euangelion) used in the New Testament. Originally, the gospel was the good news of redemption through the propitiatory offering of Jesus Christ for one's sins, the central Christian message.
The expression "gospel" was used by Paul, probably before the literary Gospels of the New Testament canon had been produced, when he reminded the people of the church at Corinth "of the gospel I preached to you" (1 Corinthians 15.1) through which, Paul averred, they were being saved, and he characterized it in the simplest terms, emphasizing Christ's appearances after the Resurrection (15.3 – 8).
The earliest extant use of gospel (or its Greek equivalent evangelion) to denote a particular genre of writing dates to the 2nd century. Justin Martyr (c. 155) in 1 Apology 66 wrote: "...the apostles, in the memoirs composed by them, which are called Gospels".
The Gospels are essentially Jewish books, written by Jewish people for early (Jewish) Christians who were still worshiping in the synagogue.
Of the many gospels written in antiquity, only four gospels came to be accepted as part of the New Testament - the canonical Gospels.
By the turn of the 5th century, the Catholic Church in the west, under Pope Innocent I, recognized a biblical canon including the four gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, which was previously established at a number of regional Synods, namely the Council of Rome (382), the Synod of Hippo (393), and two Synods of Carthage (397 and 419). This canon, which corresponds to the modern Catholic canon was used in the Vulgate, an early 5th century Latin from Hebrew translation of the Bible made by Jerome under the commission of Pope Damasus I in 382 and became the definitive and officially promulgated Bible version of the Roman Catholic Church.
The canonical gospels are:
Among the canonical Gospels, Matthew, Mark, and Luke include many similar passages describing the life of Jesus and sometimes use identical or very similar wording. John expresses itself in a different style and relates the same incidents in a different way— even in a revised narrative order— and is often full of more encompassing theological and philosophical messages than the first three canonical Gospel accounts. It is John that explicitly introduces Jesus as God incarnate.
Parallels among the first three Gospel accounts are so telling that many scholars have investigated the relationship between them. In order to study them more closely, German scholar JJ Griesbach (1776) arranged the first three Gospel accounts in a three-column table called a synopsis. As a result, Matthew, Mark, and Luke have come to be known as the synoptic Gospels; and the question of the reason for this similarity, and the relationship between these Gospels is known as the Synoptic Problem. Some Christians argue that this could be explained by adhering to the belief that the gospels were "spirit-breathed", i.e. that the Holy Spirit provided inspiration for every book in the Bible, and that consequently the similarities in the different accounts are due to having the same author, i.e. God.
However, the dominant view today is that Mark is the first Gospel, with Matthew and Luke borrowing passages both from that Gospel and from at least one other common source, lost to history, termed by scholars 'Q' (from German: Quelle, meaning "source"). This view is known as the "Two-Source Hypothesis". The rediscovery of the Gospel of Thomas, a sayings gospel remarkably similar to the form that Q was thought to take, and containing many of the sayings shared only between Matthew and Luke, but in a more raw form, has given a large degree of credence to the hypothesis.
Another theory which addresses the synoptic problem is the Farrer hypothesis. This theory maintains that Mark was written first and removes the need for a theoretical document Q. What Austin Farrer has argued is that the Gospel of Mark was used as source material by the author of Matthew and Luke used both of the previous gospels as sources for his Gospel.
The general consensus among biblical scholars is that all four canonical Gospels were originally written in Greek, the lingua franca of the Roman Orient.
Estimates for the dates when the canonical Gospel accounts were written vary significantly; and the evidence for any of the dates is scanty.
The following are date ranges representing the general scholarly consensus:
Traditional Christian scholarship has generally preferred to assign earlier dates.
In addition to the four canonical gospels there have been other gospels that were not accepted into the canon. Generally these were not accepted due to doubt over the authorship, the time frame between the original writing and the events described, or content that was at odds with the prevailing orthodoxy. If a gospel claimed to be written by for example, James, but was clearly authored after 120, then there was little chance of the authorship being authentic. This differs from the four canonical gospels which the majority of historians agree were authored before 100. For this reason, most of these non-canonical texts were only ever accepted by small portions of the early Christian community. Some of the content of these non-canonical gospels (as much as it deviates from accepted theological norms) is considered heretical by the leadership of mainstream churches, including the Vatican. This can be seen in the case of the Gospel of Peter, which was written in the correct time, 70-120, but was considered dangerous for elements which could be used to support docetism (the belief that Jesus was incorporeal, a pure spirit, and hence could not physically die).
Another non-canonical gospel that is considered to be among the earliest in composition is the, mentioned above, sayings Gospel of Thomas. The dating of the Gospel of Thomas is particularly controversial, as there is some suspicion in critical schools of scholarship that it predates the canonical Gospels, which would, if conclusively proven, have a profound impact on the understanding of their origin.
In General, some gospels that were not eventually included in the canon are similar in style and content to the canonical Gospels. Others are "sayings gospels", as lost Q is supposed to have been. Still others are Gnostic (dualistic role that flesh is evil and spirit is good) in style and content, presenting a very different view of teaching.

This story was updated at 1:55 p.m. EDT.
The Government Accountability Office said today that EPA violated federal law by failing to tell lawmakers when it installed a secure phone booth in Administrator Scott Pruitt’s office.
The deal cost EPA about $43,000, including a nearly $25,000 contract with a specialty acoustics company for the soundproof booth’s purchase, delivery and assembly.
In an eight-page decision, the congressional watchdog concluded that EPA breached appropriations law — specifically the governmentwide $5,000 spending cap on office redecoration for political appointees — by not giving advance notice to Congress’ appropriations committees. In addition, GAO found that since EPA spent its appropriated funds in a way banned by the law, it also broke the Antideficiency Act and needs to report its violation to Congress and the president.
The GAO decision quotes often from an EPA March 23 letter by Kevin Minoli, the agency’s principal deputy general counsel, that pushes back on its ruling.
EPA argued Pruitt’s phone booth "serves a functional purpose" by allowing the administrator to carry out agency business and compared it to other office supplies, like high-speed copiers or computers. Thus, the booth was a practical addition to the administrator’s office and did not violate the specific appropriations law provision since it was not "an aesthetic improvement" contemplated by that measure, according to the agency.
GAO disagreed with EPA’s interpretation of the law. The agency will be sending the required information to lawmakers this week related to Pruitt’s phone booth.
"The GAO letter ‘recognized the … need for employees to have access to a secure telephone line’ when handling sensitive information. EPA is addressing GAO’s concern, with regard to congressional notification about this expense and will be sending Congress the necessary information this week," EPA spokeswoman Liz Bowman said.
Without advance notice to lawmakers, EPA obligated $43,239 from its fiscal 2017 environmental programs and management account to install the soundproof privacy booth in Pruitt’s office, according to the GAO decision. Along with the $24,570 contract for the actual booth, that sum included $7,978 to remove closed-circuit television cameras, $3,470 for concrete floor leveling, $3,360.97 to install a drop ceiling, $3,350 for patchwork and painting, and $509.71 for cabling and wiring.
EPA told GAO the booth is located in a former storage closet in Pruitt’s office.
The agency also said that under its guidelines, a classified phone cannot be put on an office desk or in a conference room. In Minoli’s letter, EPA told GAO that the booth "not only enables the Administrator to make and receive phone calls to discuss sensitive information, but it also enables him to use this area to make and receive classified telephone calls (up to the top secret level) for the purpose of conducting agency business."
In a congressional hearing last December, Pruitt described the booth as "a secure phone line" that he uses for sensitive talks, including with the White House (E&E News PM, Dec. 7, 2017).
But GAO noted the agency didn’t say whether the booth was certified as a sensitive compartmented information facility, or SCIF. Former EPA officials told E&E News that the agency already has a SCIF in the basement of its Washington headquarters, which sees little use given the agency doesn’t deal often with classified information (Greenwire, Sept. 27, 2017).
GAO stressed it was not ruling on whether Pruitt’s phone booth itself broke the law, rather that EPA’s failure to notify Congress about its spending above the $5,000 limit was the breach.
"GAO recognizes the requirement to protect classified material and draws no conclusions regarding whether the installation of the privacy booth was the only, or the best way for EPA to provide a secure telephone line for the Administrator. EPA’s failure to comply with a governmentwide statutory requirement that an agency notify the appropriations committees before it spends more than $5,000 for the office of a Presidential appointee is the only legal issue addressed in this opinion," said Julie Matta, GAO’s managing associate general counsel, in a statement.
‘An illegal privacy booth’
Democrats on Capitol Hill had requested the legal opinion from GAO on Pruitt’s phone. They blasted the EPA chief after the decision was released today.
"Scott Pruitt likes to talk about returning the EPA to the rule of law, but it turns out he’s better at breaking it than following it. … An illegal privacy booth to conduct secret discussions with his polluter friends does nothing to help our health or environment," said Sen. Tom Udall (D-N.M.), ranking member on the Senate Appropriations subcommittee that oversees EPA.
Statements from environmental groups also poured in, with several calling on Pruitt to leave the agency.
"With each passing day, Pruitt has created more headaches for Donald Trump with his mounting list of ethical and now legal violations. Donald Trump shouldn’t wait to see what ethical norm or law Pruitt breaks next. He must fire him immediately," said Sierra Club Executive Director Michael Brune.
Republicans also expressed concerns in response to the GAO ruling released today. Senate Environment and Public Works Chairman John Barrasso (R-Wyo.) said EPA needs to make "a full public accounting" of its spending on Pruitt’s phone booth.
"It is critical that EPA and all federal agencies comply with notification requirements to Congress before spending taxpayer dollars. EPA must give a full public accounting of this expenditure and explain why the agency thinks it was complying with the law," Barrasso said.
EPA in the past has run up against GAO legal opinions.
In December 2015, the congressional watchdog found that the agency had violated federal restrictions on lobbying and propaganda in its social media campaign on behalf of the Waters of the U.S. rule (E&E News PM, Dec. 14, 2015). Pruitt has since sought to roll back that regulation at the agency.

text: The appearance of the adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) during the course of acute illness is believed to result, in part, from intrapulmonary neutrophil sequestration and degranulation induced by circulating inflammatory mediators. To evaluate the role of complement-neutrophil interactions in the pathogenesis of ARDS in man, 34 patients suffering from intra-abdominal sepsis (seven), multisystem trauma (15), or acute pancreatitis (12) were serially studied with regard to neutrophil migratory responses to C5a and F-Met-Leu-Phe, lysosomal content of beta-glucuronidase and lysozyme, and simultaneously obtained plasma levels of immunoreactive C3adesArg and C5adesArg. Nineteen patients developed ARDS. In these patients, plasma C3adesArg levels obtained within 72 hours of admission to the hospital were elevated to 305 +/- 35 ng/ml compared with 145 +/- 16 ng/ml for patients who did not develop ARDS (p less than 0.0005). C5adesArg levels were not elevated in either group. In vitro studies showed that neutrophils from normal persons were able to clear all of the C5a/C5adesArg generated in up to 5% zymosan-activated serum, while no clearance of C3adesArg was identified. Patient migratory responses could be divided into three groups based on their initial (less than 72 hour) samples: (1) hyperresponsive to both N = formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (FMLP) and C5a, (2) specifically deactivated to C5a, and (3) deactivated to both C5a and FMLP. Patients in the latter two groups developed ARDS. Enzyme content of neutrophils from patients who developed ARDS showed a substantial fall in beta-glucuronidase and lysozyme levels. The finding of elevated plasma C3a levels and deactivation of migratory response to C5a support the contention that complement activation had occurred in these patients and that their neutrophils had been exposed to C5a/C5adesArg in vivo. The finding of nonspecific migratory dysfunction associated with lysozymal enzyme loss, a circumstance not reproducible in vitro by C5a exposure, suggests that other stimuli produced degranulation of neutrophils made hyperresponsive by prior exposure to C5a.

US importers and trade associations are lobbying Congress in an attempt to “modernise” the Shipping Act, following the billions of dollars of extra charges they have incurred in costs for freight, demurrage, detention charges and lost business.
According to an article in the loadstar, The NITL (National Industrial Transportation League) cited the unprecedented freight costs, coupled with significant deterioration in service levels, as the reason to instigate a change in US law.
The proposal includes rules that prohibit “unjust and unreasonable” demurrage and detention charges and a requirement for carriers to adhere to “minimum service standards that meet the public interest” in regard to equipment availability, vessel space and contract performance.
However, carriers will undoubtedly point to the highest ever US import demand and the Covid pandemic as the catalysts for these unprecedented market conditions.
The Asia/European situation is not dissimilar, where trade and forwarding associations have tried to convince the EU that carriers have effectively been profiteering during the course of the pandemic, but so far those claims have been rejected.
Meanwhile, it has become an almost weekly occurrence that we read individual carriers reporting soaring profits and record ever quarters. Many trade organisations feel this is doing long term harm to the economies in these markets, and believe that this has left carrier/customer relations at an all-time low.

- In addition to the Facility and Gold Stream, Sprott has subscribed for 11,850,000 units, as part of the Company’s recently completed non-brokered private placement, which closed on July 18, 2019, for proceeds of US$5 million, fully aligning interests with the Company.
As the financing has closed, Pure Gold will issue to Sprott 3,841,000 common shares. Following issuance of the shares, Sprott will own approximately 4.4% of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company on a non-diluted basis. The issuance of the common shares to Sprott at closing and on the Completion Date is subject to approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.
“With access to the capital provided by the Financing, the construction of the Madsen Red Lake Mine is now fully funded,” said Darin Labrenz, President and CEO of Pure Gold. “We are very pleased with the financial commitments that Sprott have made towards the development of the Project. We have achieved our objective of securing a flexible financing package on terms that are competitive and protect the upside for our shareholders. The optionality of repayment of both the Facility and the Gold Stream in a rising gold price environment provides an opportunity to refinance once in production and generating solid cash flows from the mine. Combined with the recently completed equity financing, this package secures approximately C$90 million of immediate funding enabling us to initiate construction and puts us on track for first gold pour by late 2020.”
Dušan Petković, Principal of Sprott, commented, “As one of the largest investors dedicated to the natural resource sector, Sprott is excited to partner with Pure Gold on the development of the Madsen Gold Project. Our partnership with Pure Gold is consistent with our strategy of providing innovative and flexible capital to maximize the value of exceptional projects. We are pleased to participate alongside our colleagues at Sprott Capital Partners and play an integral role in fully funding the construction of the Madsen Red Lake Mine.”
All definitive documentation for the Financing has been signed and Pure Gold expects to receive the proceeds from the Gold Stream and the first US$10 million tranche from the Credit Facility, on August 7, 2019.
Project Financing and Initial Capital
The US$90 million in proceeds from the Financing fully fund the initial capital costs to develop a mine at Madsen Red Lake based on the Feasibility Study (as defined below). Combined with the recently closed C$47.5 million equity financing, the Financing provides flexibility to continue exploration and advance our new discoveries forward. The callable stream provides immediate cash to the Company allowing development activities to commence while we finalize our permit amendments, and can be repurchased once the mine is in production and generating cash flow.
Since the completion of the Feasibility Study, a rising gold market has seen the gold price advance from the feasibility base case price of US$1,275 per ounce to US$1,474 per ounce (August 6th spot price), while the Canadian dollar has remained relatively flat at US$0.75 to C$1.00, translating to a record high Canadian dollar gold price of C$1,957 per ounce. Sensitivity analysis shows that, using today’s metal price and exchange rate, the project is projected to return an after tax NPV(5%) of C$369 million and after-tax IRR of 49%, with initial capital requirement of C$95 million.1
With the completion of the Financing, the Company is pleased to announce that its Board of Directors has approved a “decision to construct” for the Madsen Red Lake Mine. With approximately C$90 million expected to be on hand at the closing of the Financing, the Project is fully funded and construction will commence with first production targeted for late 2020. Initial plans for detailed engineering and procurement are being formalized, and a hiring strategy has been initiated to facilitate the short Project implementation schedule.
Endeavour Financial is acting as financial advisor to the Company and Blake, Cassels & Graydon LLP has acted as legal counsel to the Company.
The Madsen Red Lake Gold Mine has historical production of 2.6 million ounces of gold and a current indicated resource of 2,063,000 ounces gold at 8.9 g/t gold (in 7.2 million tonnes), an inferred resource of 467,000 ounces gold at 7.7 g/t gold (in 1.9 million tonnes), in both cases inclusive of mineral reserves, and benefits from existing infrastructure including a mill and tailings facility, paved highway access, and access to power, water and experienced labour. The recently released Feasibility Study for the Madsen Red Lake Gold Mine outlines an 800 tonne per day underground mining operation with a 12 year mine life, Probable Mineral Reserves of one million ounces of gold grading 9 g/t in 3.5 million tonnes, and a low initial capital cost of C$95 million (US$71 million), putting the Madsen Red Lake Mine firmly on the path to becoming Canada’s next iconic gold mine.

Beechcraft Staggerwing Survivors
At the height of the Great Depression, aircraft executive Walter H. Beech and airplane designer Ted A. Wells joined forces to collaborate on a project to produce a large, powerful, and fast cabin biplane built specifically for the business executive. The Beechcraft Model 17, popularly known as the “Staggerwing”, was first flown on November 4, 1932. During its heyday, it was used as an executive aircraft, much as the private jet is now, and its primary competition were the Waco Custom Cabin and Waco Standard Cabin series of biplanes.

Natural Factors Magnesium Bisglycinate Pure , 200 mg, 120g
Natural Factors Magnesium Bisglycinate Pure provides 200 mg of this essential mineral to help support muscle function, including the heart muscle. This one-per-day, non-GMO magnesium is suitable for vegetarians and vegans, and is provided in a form that is easy on the stomach.
Magnesium is an essential nutrient needed as an enzyme cofactor in more than 300 metabolic reactions to help support healthy bones, teeth, muscles, and nerves. We also need magnesium to metabolize nutrients and to produce the body’s main form of energy, adenosine triphosphate (ATP).
Diets high in processed foods often lack magnesium, but depletion is possible even on a healthy diet. This is caused by decreased levels of magnesium in the soil, excess dietary calcium, and medications affecting the absorption and elimination of magnesium. In addition, low stomach acid compromises the absorption of common forms of magnesium. Fortunately, magnesium bisglycinate does not require stomach acid for absorption, is easy on the stomach, and does not cause diarrhea.
Natural Factors Magnesium Bisglycinate Pure is gluten-free and contains no artificial colours, preservatives, or sweeteners. Just one serving per day can help restore magnesium levels to support muscle function and energy metabolism.
- Helps maintain proper muscle function, including the heart muscle

NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- New York spot gold prices lost some steam Monday afternoon as Goldman Sachs (GS) - Get Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. Report and Goldman Sachs-related concerns continue to put pressure on commodities, while lifting the dollar.

Orthobiologics maker Bacterin International has agreed to a deal worth about $60 million to purchase Ohio-based X-spine Systems, which specializes in minimally invasive degenerative spine treatments. The combined company will be called Xtant Medical. Bacterin said the deal will expand its distribution system, allow it to deliver complementary products and boost its access to X-spine's spine surgery hardware and devices.
Licensing and distribution deals were struck between Intellirod Spine and X-spine Systems to give Intellirod the right to use X-spine's Fortex implants with its LOADPRO disposable microelectronic sensor. The system helps surgeons track the levels of rod strain during corrective spinal surgeries.
The FDA has cleared X-Spine to market its Zygafix Facet Fusion System, which is implanted using a minimally invasive procedure to help stabilize the facet joint. The system adds to the company's Silex and Axle lines of novel spinal-fusion devices.
Miamisburg, Ohio-based X-Spine Systems has secured clearance from the FDA for its Calix PC spinal implant device. The device, which employs plasma coating technology, offered better resistance to expulsion than noncoated implants during laboratory tests.


Easily the most shiftless band in Australia, Melbourne psychedelic collective King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard have finally confirmed they have begun work on their eighth album, a full two months after announcing their seventh.
The band confirmed the release of the all-acoustic Paper Mâche Dream Balloon back in August, with a release date set for next month. But speaking to triple j at the recent AIR Awards, band members confirmed they’re already looking to album number eight.
Eric Moore, Joe Walker, and Lucas Skinner said the band’s Paper Mâche Dream Balloon follow-up will basically be the antithesis of that album, drawing influence from the heavy sounds of ’80s heavy metal masters.
“Our next record sounds like Motörhead,” the guys told triple j. “It’s way heavier, kind of like early 80s heavy thrash metal, like heavier than Metallica, a lot heavier than Slayer. It’s unlistenable, essentially.”
As we reported this morning, the seven-piece managed to pick up the AIR Independent Music Award for Best Independent Hard Rock, Heavy or Punk Album, which they received for last year’s highly acclaimed I’m In Your Mind Fuzz.
“It was really weird because this album came out this time last year and then Quarters! came out in May so it feels like Mind Fuzz been out for ages, but it’s still nice to get recognised,” the boys said of the win.
“[We felt] very surprised and shocked, Eric was very unprepared. It was actually one of the worst speeches in history I think.” We can apparently expect the eighth King Gizzard album some time early next year, with album number seven out Friday, 13th November.
Since unveiling their debut album, 12 Bar Bruise, back in 2012, King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard have released five full-length studio albums, which averages out to a shockingly lazy two albums per year. Fans can likely expect news of their ninth album, oh, sometime next week.

This article is part of our weekly tech newsletter, which is sent every Friday. If you want to sign up for it in full, with similar topics but more varied and concise, You can do so at this link.
The year 2022 contained at least six core stories. Buying Twitter is not the most important thing.
1. Now artificial intelligence has arrived
September 16th the news He was toying with an improbable script request for an artificial intelligence “in a few years” that would allow for effortless typing. The exaggerated request text was: “Write a technology newsletter with three topics mostly Google searches in the last seven days, short paragraphs, a few metaphors, six quotes, one Premio Touring, and a mix of Simone de Beauvoir and Javier Marías’ style, No words of five or more syllables, two original ideas, the little first person pronoun.”
It didn’t take “a few years” to answer. On November 30, it was already possible to create it using ChatGPT, an exceptional tool created by OpenAI. The result is confusing, because the tool has no internet access and uses outdated examples, and possibly because the request is too complex. But it’s still great:
But this was just one example. You may be asked for headlines for this article, they are also reasonably modest:
But it can easily explain why you don’t catch a wolf with a trailblazer:
Obviously, it’s something Google can’t answer that easily:
He also knows how to compose the words for Extremoduro’s Christmas Carol:
Or write a story about toast and ants in a distant biblical tone:
Or help write a story about the CIS-Canaria coalition. It confuses the concepts, but still in some sections of Ultima Hora they appreciate the draft:
To experience all of this, all you have to do is open an OpenAI account with an email and start asking questions.
In the results you see a lot of problems and errors. But it was hard to imagine such a thing: not only does he write fluently in Spanish (which is not English), but he also understands the questions.
ChatGPT itself would be the story of the year, but in the summer many companies launched image generators based on text requests. The sum of these two innovations makes 2022 the year of artificial intelligence.
Some people compare these innovations with milestones like the first browser or iPhone. It may sound exaggerated, but it evokes something similar. Unlike driverless cars or the metaverse, this technology has been in use since day one by millions of people and there are hundreds of companies working to integrate it.
Google is probably the main concern. this week The New York Times You mentioned that ChatGPT is a “red code” for Google. Google faces two problems with this technology, as well as the inability to develop it: the first is that if clear answers are imposed, the business model based on advertising is diluted. If the answer is already there, you don’t need to click. Second, OpenAI could risk its standing with incorrect, racist, or sexist answers. But Google has a lot to lose. Your slow adoption of these changes may give life to the alternatives.
Google’s skepticism is just one example of the opportunities these technologies will create. Apps like Notion have already started integrating it into their services (to ask me to write an email or generate 10 ideas for a project), plagiarism detection software Turnitin boasts that it’s already set up for this moment and will detect works (thesis?
There are already companies that see a business model in creating requests for better images, texts, texts or songs and even those who have applied them to prompter What politicians read
In 2023 it would be reasonable to suspect whether someone wrote anything. Opportunity will always be for whoever uses it best. Is it a tool to improve human actions and ask more difficult questions or will it be a source of being lazier?
2. Yes, Musk too
time He chose Elon Musk as Person of the Year 2021 for his work at Tesla and SpaceX. In 2022 he buys Twitter. It remains to be seen whether it is an unconditional improvement.
Musk’s got insurance on something: the digital inch of media and network coverage. It’s the new Trump: Every tweet generates virality, which sparks more interest and encourages Musk.
Media analyst Jack Schafer describes journalists’ addiction thus: “Having played so much in Musk’s favor, you would think that reporters and editors would throw ice cubes at ‘hot’ news stories about Musk kicking every 15 minutes and call him quit.” They will serve, if they must, in vignettes buried in its pages. But no, the journalists continue to swallow the musk bait like an indistinguishable river carp. What should Musk compare himself to? [el poder del presidente Trump]? Just $163 billion in a world full of billionaires and a social networking site that isn’t even in the top ten for global users.”
With all that has been written about Musk, which should be rewritten in a few hours or days, there is no point in restoring it here. It can be summed up like this: he has bought a social network in decline and in an economic crisis expensive, he is using his resources to keep it in the spotlight and it is not at all clear that he will achieve it.
3. TikTok is getting bigger and there are more networks
Twitter’s obvious “Where do we go next?” There is no single answer. It is possible that each one has their own way and that it is different. This dissociation will weaken the feeling of seeing everyone the same. Obviously, it will not disappear at events such as the World Cup or the White House elections. But even then people will be lost. The Academy Awards, for example, are not what they used to be.
The best example of this is the network that today occupies a central space in the lives of those under 30: TikTok. Its success is overwhelming and we journalists look at its relationship with the US government and its handling of data. But it’s hard to cover. The main reason for its success is the individual chronology of each user. The conversation will be more distributed, perhaps among comments on TikTok, Reddit, Mastodon, Discord, and some Twitch streams. This is just to name a few of those that exist. Twitter will continue but seems to be changing forever.
This point is not so much the story of the year as the trend of acceleration.
4. The end of the unstoppable big tech era
All stories in this list appear on Google Trends as received. Although this graph gives significant weight to Silicon Valley’s layoffs (artistic hairstyles) Because they may have added similar terms, they have fewer.
But it’s clearly not the story of the year: 2022 was bad. Layoffs are the prime example. Amazon, Meta, Snap, Intel, and Twitter have laid off thousands of employees. The market value of shares of Apple, Netflix, Uber and most technology companies fell. It does not appear to be a final crisis, but the sense of inevitability they had a few years ago has melted.
It is true that artificial intelligence is exploding this year. But the great promises made two decades ago will not come anytime soon. The best hope is the metaverse and we’ll see [más detalles abajo].
“The iPhone and cloud computing enabled the Cambrian explosion of new technology. Some things went right and some things went wrong. But one thing that went infrequently was that a lot of people got rich and asked, “Well, what now?” This quote is from Sam Altman, leader of OpenAI, which is taken from an article in economic Who wonders what Silicon Valley thinkers are aspiring to now that the big companies are on the decline.
We know what Google, Amazon, Netflix or Apple are doing. They all do great things that are hard to imitate, but none of them seem to have the next big thing on their hands. Shattering the hopes of the greats was one of the stories of the year.
5. Hey Metaverse, where are you
If someone says with certainty that the metaverse is the future of everything, that would probably work for the Meta. Mark Zuckerberg’s commitment to virtual reality is unstoppable. This year they released new glasses that are better than their predecessors, but certainly not better. Perhaps Apple will introduce them in 2023.
Also whoever says the metaverse is a dark, bottomless pit is making it. It is possible, for example, that virtual reality is imposed for work, games, exercise or entertainment, and not everything. All can be seen.
But 2022 marked the first full year where Meta and Zuckerberg don’t have much to offer. “The metaverse is a collection of efforts that we’re working on for the long term, but I think it’s going to work out in the end,” he said on his recent call with investors. That moment of honest skepticism is precious.
Unlike iPhone or ChatGPT, it’s not a technology that has millions of people on hold once they leave. its a problem.
6. Is the cryptocurrency decline accurate?
Just a year ago, the word NFT was a promise of money. We journalists have spent months trying to explain what they are. On January 9, we published the second most read story of the year in the technology section: it was about a Catalan artist who had “hit with NFT”.
However, in July, he was the most widely read Brazilian professor who corrupted the technology base of cryptocurrency and a Ponzi scheme affecting thousands of Spaniards. [La lista entera de lo más leído en la sección saldrá la semana que viene, apúntate arriba a la newsletter si la quieres recibir].
Between the tumult of January and the tumult of July, the value of cryptocurrency plummeted and bankruptcies occurred. As if that weren’t enough, in November came the sudden downfall of cryptocurrency trading platform FTX, with the famous Sam Bankman-Fried at the helm. The winter affected everyone: OpenSea was the main trading platform for NFTs and in one year they lost 90% of their trading volume. This story is about the fall, and we’ll see if it comes back.

AFC Future Is Illuminated by the QB Position
Pendulum swinging back to the AFC with its influx of talented young quarterbacks
The two best quarterbacks in the NFC are Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers.
Over the previous 22 seasons, they combined for eight Lombardi Trophies, 25 Pro Bowls and seven NFL MVP awards. So the past clearly belongs to Brady and Rodgers. But Brady is now 44 and Rodgers 38.
The present and future just as clearly belong to the AFC, which has done a better job of scouting, drafting, developing and managing the quarterback position.
The two best quarterbacks in the AFC are Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen. And if it isn’t Allen, it’s Lamar Jackson. And if it isn’t Jackson, it’s Joe Burrow. And if it isn’t Burrow, it’s Justin Herbert. Anyway, you get the picture — the best young quarterbacks are all in the AFC. Mahomes is 27, Allen 26, Burrow and Jackson 25 each and Herbert 24.
And then there’s Tua Tagovailoa and Trevor Lawrence…DeShaun Watson, and potentially Zach Wilson, Mac Jones and Kenny Pickett. That’s six more quarterbacks starting for AFC teams under the age of 28.
Twelve of the starting quarterbacks in the AFC are home-grown draft picks. Eleven of them were first-rounders. Burrow and Lawrence were selected with the first overall picks, Wilson went second overall, Tagovailoa fifth, Herbert sixth, Allen seventh, Mahomes 10th, Jones 15th, Pickett 20th and Jackson at 32. In addition, Derek Carr was a second-round pick of the Las Vegas Raiders and Davis Mills a third-round pick of the Houston Texans. Carr is 31 and Mills 23.
The average age of starting quarterbacks in the AFC is 27. The average age in the NFC is 29.
Only eight of the 16 starting quarterbacks in the NFC are home-grown draft picks – and only five of those were first-rounders. Kyler Murray was a first-overall selection, Trey Lance a third, Daniel Jones sixth, Justin Fields 11th and Rodgers, of course, a 25th overall choice. The other eight starting quarterbacks in the NFC are making their second or even third (Carson Wentz) career stop.
Mahomes and Jackson have already been NFL MVPs. Mahomes and Burrow have already taken their teams to Super Bowls. Only nine quarterbacks in NFL history have passed for 5,000 yards in a single season and Mahomes and Herbert are already in that fraternity.
There was a three-year window of NFL drafts from 1982-84 that produced five impact quarterbacks. Jim McMahon was a first-round pick in 1982, John Elway, Jim Kelly and Dan Marino all first-rounders in 1983 and Boomer Esiason a second-rounder in 1984. Those five took their teams to a combined 11 Super Bowls. Elway, Marino and Esiason all became NFL MVPs and Elway, Kelly and Marino now have busts in Canton.
There was another two-year window of NFL drafts from 2004-05 that produced four impact quarterbacks. Eli Manning, Philip Rivers and Ben Roethlisberger were first-rounders in 2004 and Rodgers a first-rounder in 2005. All rank in the Top 10 all-time in passing yards and all but Rivers won a Super Bowl. Rodgers has been an NFL MVP – four times, in fact.
But there has never been a series of consecutive drafts that has produced so many quality quarterbacks as we have seen from 2017 through 2021. Eighteen of the quarterbacks currently starting in the NFL were drafted during that five-year stretch – and it’s top heavy in favor of the AFC with its collection of NFL MVPs, Super Bowl champions, passing champions and Pro Bowlers.
The conclusion? The future belongs to the AFC just as it did back in the late 1960s when Hall of Fame quarterbacks Joe Namath, Len Dawson, Bob Griese, Ken Stabler and Terry Bradshaw combined to deliver nine Lombardi Trophies over a span of 11 seasons.
Today’s NFL is all about the quarterback position and the AFC has them. In abundance.

BJP, PM Modi trying to rake up old issues to divert public attention from failures, alleges Mayawatitext_fields
Lucknow: BSP president Mayawati Saturday accused the BJP and Prime Minister Narendra Modi of trying to rake up old issues to divert people's attention from their failures ahead of the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.
"In order to divert people's attention from the failures of its government and prevent poverty and unemployment for becoming real election issues, BJP and Prime Minister Modi are trying to rake up all kind of dead issues," Mayawati said in a tweet in Hindi.
"This is most condemnable... people should remain cautious," she added.
In another tweet, she alleged that the Prime Minister mostly remained busy in laying foundation stones and spent Rs 3,044 crore in publicity.
"This government money could have been used for making available education and hospital facility in every village of a backward state like Uttar Pradesh, but for the BJP, publicity is more important and not education and public interest," she added.


text: A fascinating examination of the way that many scientists and politicians have sought to use Charles Darwin's ideas to solve social problems, or to bolster political ideologiesCharles Darwin not only sparked a revolution in science, but gave birth to ideas that acquired a political dimension from the outset, one with a deeply troubling and ongoing impact. Social Darwinism, eugenics, and scientific racialism--whose adherents have all claimed Charles Darwin as their inspiration--became associated with some of the darkest episodes in our recent past. This beautifully crafted narrative follows the thread of theory and the historical footprints left by a myriad cast of key characters to tell an often shocking and sometimes heartbreaking story. This book shows us what drove people to put a black man on display in a zoo, forcibly sterilize a pair of innocent teenage sisters, lock up a British girl for 18 years for a petty theft, murder disabled people in Nazi Germany, and slam shut America's "Golden Door." In a world where the gene becomes ever more central, the fresh and stimulating arguments presented here make this an explosive, essential, and utterly intriguing book.

We’ve been back and forth on the curbside garbage issue for what seems like a decade. We’ve talked about it, you’ve talked about it and your elected officials have talked about it, but we continue to wait and nothing is getting done.
Really, though, the whole thing is pretty simple: Can government provide a better service than what residents have now?
Not just cheaper – although that’s a big, big part of it – but better for everyone.

Water is getting more and more expensive. To help save water in the summer we apply a water saver treatment. Our Water Saver is a sticky solution of a negatively-charged polymer mixture that reacts with very fine particles of soil, binding them into larger clumps. This results in larger pore space that allows air and water unrestricted movement through the soil. Water percolation and infiltration is improved as a result of the new pore spaces, allowing plants to transfer and uptake nutrient solutions at a much greater rate and from much greater distances.The negative charge of this product helps the positively-charged nutrients wick their way to the plant root systems without tying up their availability. The plants better utilize fertilizer applications, and fertilizer run-off is reduced.

No less an authority than Dr. Martin Luther King, when speaking about the future of civil rights in 1957 told his audience, “Many of the southerners who oppose integration believe with utter devoutness that what they do is best for themselves, their families, and their nation.” His next statement however, made it clear that “... the opponents of desegregation are fighting a losing battle. The Old South is gone, never to return again. Yes, the Old South is a lost cause.” Yet decades later, here we are, still reeling from the terrible resolutions of a Civil War fought 160 years ago.
Were 1861 attitudes toward Black Americans genuinely progressive in the northern states? Hardly, but it’s fair to say they were at least lurching in the right direction, away from our original sin of slavery. Maybe even one day toward an all-inclusive and just society. But then came war, fought against traitors and insurrectionists who knew damn well that they were fighting to protect and preserve slavery, enshrine white supremacy and legalize racism. And when the traitors lost, instead of its leaders being prosecuted and its racist institutions ripped out at the roots, the dehumanizing “glorious cause” they defended was allowed to fester, sustaining an infection Americans still suffer from.

Dr.in Julia Boog-Kaminski has been at the ifk since November 2017. After studying literature, art history, Greek studies, and BWL (with a focus on museum management), she was a research assistant and lecturer at the University of Hamburg from 2009-2016. There she obtained her PhD with a thesis on «Witz der Differenz» (Könighausen & Neumann 2017) in intercultural literature. In addition to her academic work, she is a copywriter and editor for numerous journals and blogs (including FALL, DARE, SOCIALTECTURE, PAP-ILL-ON).
She is currently working on a post-doctoral thesis in the field of children and youth culture entitled: «Kinderfressen - Eine Urphantasie». This project reworks the centuries-long history of motifs of child-eating in children's and youth literature as well as in myths, legends, fairy tales, and the visual arts. In addition, it questions established paradigms of developmental research and psychoanalysis.

Second match of the season against Jetro FC. Of course we don't know how good they are this year but they seemed to struggle against us when we played them 3 times during TML 14, twice in the the league and in the TML Cup too. Funnily enough the scoreline was 4-1 to BEFC in all three matches so I think it's fair to say that we enjoyed playing against them.
Typical Japanese team, skillful players and silky passing from the back but couldn't cope with the physical game we played. Again, we don't know how many new players they might have so we can't take them for granted but based on last year's performance, they haven't improved that much.
So this is our opportunity to send a clear message to the rest of the TML 2 teams that BEFC are stronger than ever and we want to be back to where we belong in Division 1.
Early kick off in Komaba Sub Ground in Saitama so make sure you are ready for this one. Details to follow about meeting point and time.

Lockdown has made us value our museums and galleries more than ever and London’s Victoria and Albert Museum is one of our favourites.
We thought we’d explore one of their most fascinating exhibits, the oldest dated carpet and one of the largest and finest displayed anywhere in the world, the Ardabil Carpet
It is one of the most important objects in the V&A’s Middle Eastern Collection, and is the centrepiece of the Jameel Gallery of Islamic art, displayed on the floor in a specially engineered case created to conserve the carpet for at least the next 500 years.
The carpet is incredibly delicate and needs careful preservation, which is documented in the fascinating film below.
The display case makes sure dust and dirt particles are minimised and includes insect traps to ensure moths and other pests detrimental to the carpet are kept at bay. The carpet is lit for 10 minutes every half hour to preserve its rich colours and the effect of this minimal light on the carpet is carefully gauged. Opening the case is an intricate operation involving a hydraulic lift.
It was made in the town of Ardabil in north-west Iran, the burial place of Shaykh Safi al-Din Ardabili, who died in 1334. The Shaykh was a Sufi leader, ancestor of Shah Ismail, founder of the Safavid dynasty (1501-1722).
While the exact origins of the carpet are unclear, it’s believed to have been commissioned by the court for the shrine of the Shaykh, which, by the 16th century, had become a place of pilgrimage.
The carpet can be dated exactly due to an inscription woven in its edge date, 946 in the Muslim calendar, equivalent to AD 1539 – 1540.
The wool carpet is extremely dense, an astonishing 5,300 knots per ten centimetres square (compared to 100 knots per square inch on a Deirdre Dyson hand knotted carpet) This allows for a mind bogglingly intricate level of detail in the complex, bordered design featuring a central medallion, different sized lanterns, arabesques and foliate detail typical of carpets of the period.
There are 10 dyes used in the design, these create ‘Abrash’ a naturally occurring variation in shade due to the slight differences in dye batches which is unique to hand made carpets and even more apparent in a carpet of this scale. It is well documented that Middle Eastern carpets were deliberately imperfect, reflecting the belief that perfection belongs to God alone.
The carpet has been part of the V&A’s collection since 1893, prior to that it was documented as still being in the shrine of Shaykh Safi al-Din in 1843 – it was sold when an earthquake struck the shrine in the late 19th Century. Inspecting the carpet on behalf of the V&A, prior to acquisition designer William Morris reported it of “singular perfection … logically and consistently beautiful”.

SHAMOKIN DAM – A current Shamokin Dam resident has dropped out of the running for Snyder County Commissioner after being threatened with court action by county DA Mike Piecuch. According to the Daily Item, David Herbert is ineligible to serve in the county seat due to a 1985 federal conviction for conspiracy. It was in connection with a kickback scheme involving then-state Treasurer Budd Dwyer, who later committed suicide in front of a group of reporters.
The Daily Item says DA Piecuch notified Herbert in a letter, stating Herbert doesn’t lack the ability, but lacks the eligibility to serve. Piecuch said if necessary, he would file a civil complaint to prevent his name from appearing on the ballot.
Herbert is a former three-term Shamokin Dam Borough Council member and former tax collector. He presently serves on the county planning commission and was recently appointed to the Penn Valley Airport Authority. Piecuch said in the letter Herbert is permitted to serve on the planning commission, but did not address the airport authority appointment or his time as a borough council member.

We haven’t seen hide nor hair of former super middleweight champion Callum Smith since “Mundo” suffered his first-ever professional loss to Canelo Alvarez last December, but that doesn’t mean he’s been sitting idle. Smith confirmed a partnership with new trainer Buddy McGirt earlier this week, and McGirt has faith in his charge’s abilities and potential to compete at light heavyweight.
“He can punch, but there is more to him than punch power. He has to gain confidence in his other skills.
“I know that he will be a champion again.”
“It’s a very tough division, a hot division,” said McGirt.
“If he has a couple of fights to get comfortable at the weight, I don’t see anyone to stop him becoming a champion.”
The 6’3” Smith (27-1, 19 KO) has long appeared due for a move up to 175, and his shaky performances against both John Ryder and the aforementioned Canelo look like as good a reason to try something new. He’s still reasonably young at 31 and doesn’t have too much mileage on him, so he should have several more good years in the game.
I definitely don’t see him toppling the likes of Artur Beterbiev or Dmitry Bivol, but I’m definitely looking forward to seeing whether McGirt can unearth the obvious potential that, even with his championship experience, Smith has yet to tap into.

Studio Harcourt was established in 1934 by the Lacroix brothers in Paris, France. They are well known in the industry for taking lack and white photographs.
