Do You Need a Router for Wi-Fi?
You do not need to have a router to use Wi-Fi as long as you're not trying to share an Internet connection. The common consumer Wi-Fi router is actually a combination device that includes a network switch, a network router and a Wi-Fi access point. All three parts of the consumer-level Wi-Fi router also exist in independent form and are used in large-scale networks, where the combination device can't sufficiently handle all of the network traffic. You can use Wi-Fi without a router, but in many cases it is impractical and can cost more than with.
Wi-Fi Direct lets devices form an ad-hoc network with each other to transfer information. Wi-Fi Direct is not a replacement for a network; instead, it is a direct connection between two devices; a third device would have to directly connect with both other devices in what is called a Wi-Fi Direct Group to communicate with them. Only one device needs to support Wi-Fi Direct for the connection to work; the technology is often used to sync devices, transfer files, print documents and play games. Wi-Fi direct is designed for instances when there isn't an available Wi-Fi router to form a network, but it is not designed for sharing Internet connections.
Access Point and Network Switch
Consumer Wi-Fi routers typically contain a Wi-Fi access point and a network switch, the two devices needed to build a Wi-Fi network. If you were to connect a standalone Wi-Fi access point to a standalone network switch, you could build a Wi-Fi network that behaves like the one made by a Wi-Fi router for all the devices that are connected to it. The network switch will host the local network and direct traffic between computers and the Wi-Fi access point will connect all the Wi-Fi devices to the network switch. Additionally, some standalone Wi-Fi access points may also include a built-in network switch. These devices are intended to be connected to, and expand another network that is using a router.
The router's only job is to connect one network to another and handle data traffic between the networks. In most consumer cases, the two networks the router is connecting are the local network and the Internet. Routers can also be used to bridge several smaller networks in the same building or general area for cross-device communication. A Wi-Fi network without a router will not be able to communicate with other networks as a single entity.
Internet Problems Without a Router
Sharing an Internet connection with several Wi-Fi connected devices over a network that doesn't have a router will usually end with only one of the devices being able to connect to the Internet at a time. Internet service providers usually only assign accounts a single IP address -- without paying extra -- that's used to identify all incoming and outgoing traffic on the Internet connection. Routers work around this limitation by claiming the IP address and acting as traffic control to direct data to the correct devices on the network.

The first of a couple of thunderstorm chances is developing now. At 1:45pm, StormView Radar is showing a few cells already popping over eastern AR and northwest MS. These cells should continue to develop as a stationary front lies just about over the metro area and temperatures in the 90s and dewpoints in the 70s contribute to a very moist and unstable atmosphere.
Earlier today, a thunderstorm complex fell apart over the Ozarks of northwest AR, but a mini-low pressure system (mesoscale convective vortex) remains and is moving towards the region along the stationary front. This MCV will be the catalyst for scattered thunderstorms. The image below shows the swirl of clouds over NW AR representing the MCV and the available energy in the region for thunderstorms (yellow lines). Basically, the MCV is moving into an area of high available energy, which should be enough to trigger storms during peak heating hours. The region is under a SLIGHT RISK for severe weather again today, with high wind possible, as well as large hail.
|A vortex generated by dying storms to our west will encounter available convective energy this afternoon|
These storms should weaken and move out this evening, but high-resolution model data indicate that another upper-level low will move along the front from southeast MO into the Mid-South, bringing another possible thunderstorm complex during the overnight hours. Even the traditional models are now coming on board with this solution, so don't be surprised to hear more thunder overnight. The model output below indicates the distinct possibility of storms somewhere around midnight.
|High-res model data showing the likelihood of additional storms overnight|

TV LAND SETS OUT TO SHRINK THE GENERATION GAP IN “FOREVER YOUNG”
New Unscripted Series Premieres Wednesday, April 3 At 10pm ET/PT
New York, NY – February 22, 2013 – Two generations collide on the most unexpected spring break ever on “Forever Young,” TV Land’s new half-hour unscripted series. The six-episode series seeks to discover what happens when two different generations – five “juniors” under the age of 30 and five “seniors” over age 70 – brave the challenge of living together in the same house. “Forever Young” is from Ashton Kutcher and Jason Goldberg’s Katalyst (“Punk’d,” “Beauty and the Geek”) and Eyeworks USA, headed by Executive Producers JD Roth and Todd A. Nelson (“Extreme Makeover: Weight Loss Edition”), and will premiere with two back-to-back episodes on Wednesday, April 3rd at 10pm ET/PT.
“As TV Land continues to produce original series, we are broadening our horizons and looking at both scripted and unscripted shows,” said TV Land President Larry W. Jones. “‘Forever Young’ is the perfect example of what TV Land values in its original programming: an intriguing concept with humor and heart at its core.”
“Forever Young” chronicles five seniors – Lou, Emileen, Eugene, Shirley and Arthur – and five “juniors” – Mike, Christian, Andree, Sam and Angelina – as they embark on a journey to try to identify with the other generation. Teaching seniors how to master the techniques of beer pong and explaining to juniors that you can’t zoom in on a paper map may be more difficult than originally thought. Will the generation gap prove too big to cross with attitudes like “I can’t learn anything from you” flowing freely in the house?
Through tasks that will bond or break them, the housemates will learn to open up and share more of themselves with their counterparts than they ever thought possible. The generations may differ in fashion, technology, lifestyle and etiquette, but they will both learn at least one thing: how to stay “Forever Young.”
TV Land is the programming destination featuring the best in entertainment on all platforms for consumers in their 40s and 50s. Consisting of original programming, classic and contemporary television series acquisitions, hit movies and a full-service Web site, TV Land is now seen in over 98 million U.S. homes.

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — A motorcyclist is clinging to life after an early morning accident on Route 1.
The accident happened right where I-76 west splits, the right lanes become Route 1, the Roosevelt Expressway over the twin bridges.
The motorcycle was going onto Route 1, when he somehow lost control, possibly going too fast.
Philadelphia Police Lt. Frank McMonhele says the motorcycle went one way, the rider went the other, over the edge of the bridge down about 40 feet into a ravine below.
And with no other way to reach him, rescuers had to slowly lower themselves down with ropes.
“They did an outstanding job, they were able to slowly get down to him, stabilize him, put him on a stretcher and bring him back up.”
That took nearly half an hour. He was taken to Einstein Medical Center in critical condition with several serious internal and leg injuries. This all happened around 2:45 Friday morning, the ramp was closed for about three hours.

In lower school assembly today, two of our Year 3 pupils presented their arguments for staying in the EU!! Both pupils wanted the children to know a little more about it.
After a presentation describing what "Brexit" was all about, the girls presented in front of 142 children explaining their thoughts. Mr Langston helped to balance the argument, followed by a secret ballot for every child to have their say and experience democracy.
The vote ended with a result of:
To stay in Europe - 107
To leave Europe - 35
Congratulations Hannah and Ananya, your presentation obviously worked, you'll make excellent Member's of Parliament in the future!!

Publisher's Note: This older, but yet to be published post is finally being presented now as an archivable history of the current events of these days that will become the real history of tomorrow.
This post appears here courtesy of the The Daily Wire
. The author of this post is Amanda Prestigiacomo
Radio host and PragerU cofounder Dennis Prager announced this week that he has tested positive for COVID-19 and has received monoclonal antibody treatment.
"I tested positive (for COVID) last week, and I have been steadily improving,"
Prager announced Monday on his show, where he broadcasted from his home. "At no point was I in danger of hospitalization."
The host said he has not been vaccinated, so after testing positive for COVID, he received monoclonal antibody treatment, specifically Regeneron. The conservative noted that he's also taken other medicine, like Ivermectin, which has been prescribed to some COVID-19 patients, though it's officially used to treat internal waterborne parasites, and the FDA has warned against using it for COVID-19.
"I have received monoclonal antibodies, that's Regeneron. I have, of course, for years - a year and a half, not years - been taking hydroxychloroquine from the beginning, with zinc. I've taken Z-Pak, azithromycin, as the Zelenko protocol would have it. I have taken ivermectin,"
Antibody treatment is essentially an infusion of supplemental antibodies that help your body fight off COVID - and fast, according to medical experts.
University of Alabama at Birmingham Professor Turner Overton explained it this way: Your "immune system takes two to three weeks to make good antibodies,"
but "monoclonal antibodies are supplemental antibodies that can be administered early in the course of infection - the first 10 days after symptoms commence - to rapidly bind and kill the COVID virus."
Medical experts suggest that the treatment, which has been authorized for public use, should be given to COVID-positive patients during the first ten days of symptoms.
Health officials have emphasized that vaccination is still the best option for Americans in reducing a patient's chances of hospitalization and death. "The monoclonal antibodies are not as durable as the vaccine,"
Dr. Overton said. "The vaccine trains a healthy immune system to protect from a future infection, and the protection can last much longer."
Prager noted that he was not afraid to get the virus.
"I have engaged with strangers, constantly hugging them, taking photos with them knowing that I was making myself very susceptible to getting COVID,"
the host said. "Which is, indeed, as bizarre as it sounded, what I wanted, in the hope I would achieve natural immunity and be taken care of by therapeutics."
Johns Hopkins' Dr. Marty Makary, speaking on The Daily Wire's "Morning Wire,"
said this month that the "data on natural immunity are now overwhelming,"
noting that studies have shown natural immunity to be 27 times more effective than vaccinated immunity.
"It turns out the hypothesis that our public health leaders had that vaccinated immunity is better and stronger than natural immunity was wrong,"
said Makary. "They got it backwards. And now we've got data from Israel showing that natural immunity is 27 times more effective than vaccinated immunity. And that supports 15 other studies."


Alberni Community and Women’s Services Society (ACAWS) is putting out an appeal for Alberni Valley residents to help the homeless and hurting this winter by participating in the Coldest Night of the Year.
Coldest Night of the Year is an annual family-friendly walk-a-thon that takes place in more than 100 communities across Canada. The walk in Port Alberni is organized by ACAWS and raises funds for the organization’s transition house and drop-in centre. Coldest Night is a team event, with families, friends and coworkers collecting pledges together.
If you don’t have a team, that’s no problem—you can join one of the 11 teams already signed up in Port Alberni and start collecting pledges with them.
“It is that whole spirit of participation and working together,” said ACAWS executive director Ellen Frood. “Anybody is welcome to join our team.”
ACAWS is required to fundraise each year to help balance the organization’s budget, and Coldest Night of the Year is one of the largest fundraisers. Over the past two years, ACAWS has raised $50,000 in total. This year, the goal is another $25,000, and with more than $13,000 raised to date, ACAWS is more than halfway to its goal.
But although the walk has more sponsors than previous years to help out on the financial side, registration is down.
“This is a big appeal on our part to get people interested,” said Frood. “We’re bringing the hungry and the hurting out of the cold.”
ACAWS has added to the event this year, with entertainment from Alberni Teens Can Rock and a local dance group, as well as a silent auction. Walkers and volunteers will also receive a fresh, warm meal courtesy of the Red Hot Chili Preppers at the end of the night.
“We feel it’s a great way to bring awareness to homelessness,” said Frood. “But also it’s a great, fun family event.”
Participants can choose between a 2 km, 5 km, and 10 km walk. Rest stops will be available on all routes, along with signage, route marshalls and rest stop attendants.
But participants don’t have to walk if they don’t want to.
“There are many people who can’t walk, but they can certainly help,” said Frood. “They can sign up as a volunteer and raise money. Every small amount adds up and makes a difference.”
Participants can register online at http://cnoy.org/portalberni. The walk will take place on Saturday, Feb. 23 starting at the Alberni Athletic Hall at 5:15 p.m. with registration opening at 4 p.m. Everyone who donates to Coldest Night of the Year will receive a charitable tax receipt. For more information, call Carol at 250-724-7111 ext. 221.

Oxidative stress plays a key role in the pathogenesis of epilepsy and contributes in underlying epileptogenesis process. Anticonvulsant drugs targeting the oxidative stress domain of epileptogenesis may provide better control of seizure. The present study was carried out to investigate the effect of clinically used anti-epileptic drugs (AEDs) on the course of pentylenetetrazole (PTZ)-induced kindling and oxidative stress markers in mice.
Six mechanistically heterogeneous anticonvulsants: phenobarbital, phenytoin, levetiracetam, pregabalin, topiramate, and felbamate were selected and their redox profiles were determined. Diazepam was used as a drug control for comparison. Kindling was induced by repeated injections of a sub-convulsive dose of PTZ (50 mg/kg, s.c.) on alternate days until seizure score 5 was evoked in the control kindled group. Anticonvulsants were administered daily. Following PTZ kindling, oxidative stress biomarkers were assessed in homogenized whole brain samples and estimated for the levels of nitric oxide, peroxide, malondialdehyde, protein carbonyl, reduced glutathione, and activities of nitric oxide synthase and superoxide dismutase.
Biochemical analysis revealed a significant increase in the levels of reactive oxygen species with a parallel decrease in endogenous anti-oxidants in PTZ-kindled control animals. Daily treatment with levetiracetam and felbamate significantly decreased the PTZ-induced seizure score as well as the levels of nitric oxide (p<0.001), nitric oxide synthase activity (p<0.05), peroxide levels (p<0.05), and malondialdehyde (p<0.05). Levetiracetam and felbamate significantly decreased lipid and protein peroxidation whereas topiramate was found to reduce lipid peroxidation only.
An AED that produces anticonvulsant effect by the diversified mechanism of action such as levetiracetam, felbamate, and topiramate exhibited superior anti-oxidative stress activity in addition to their anticonvulsant activity.

Cyclone Filter Upgrades
Very few cyclones out there qualify as being “high Efficiency” and using undersized filters on cyclones of questionable efficiency affects filter loading in a negative way. Cyclones don’t perform well at air flows other than what they were designed for.
All Wynn Filters designed for use on cyclones have a MERV 15 rating and a minimum of twice the filter surface area of most leading brands. This translates to “one fourth the pressure drop.” Our filters do a better job of filtering and go longer between cleanings.
We intentionally do not use internal brushes or paddles.
Filter specifications can be found under cyclone filter library.
All Filters manufactured in the United States of America.
Filter upgrades for cyclones fall in two (2) categories:
Flanged and Non Flanged
Designed for use on the do-it-yourself transitions (plenum boxes) which go between the blower and the filter(s). All are open at both ends having a fixed gasket on the flanged end. Specifications can be found in the “Cyclone Filter Library”
Suggestion: One filter for every 2-1/2 horse power.
Used when stacking filters or when directly replacing filters on certain commercially available cyclones such as Oneida and Penn State. All are open at both ends and supplied with one fixed gasket and one loose gasket. Specifications can be found in the “Cyclone Filter Library”


Fascinating stuff. This holds out hope for thousands who have lost limbs:
There have been remarkable mechanical advances in prosthetic limbs in recent years, including rewiring nerve fibers to control sophisticated mechanical arms (see “A Lifelike Prosthetic Arm”), and brain interfaces that allow for complicated thought control (see “Brain Helps Quadriplegics Move Robotic Arms with Their Thoughts”). But for all this progress, prosthetic limbs cannot send back sensory information to the wearer, making it harder for them to do tasks like pick up objects without crushing them or losing their grip.
Now researchers at the Cleveland Veterans Affairs Medical Center and Case Western Reserve University have developed a new kind of interface that can convey a sense of touch from 20 spots on a prosthetic hand. It does this by directly stimulating nerve bundles—known as peripheral nerves—in the arms of patients; two people have so far been fitted with the interface. What’s more, the implants continue to work after 18 months, a noteworthy milestone given that electrical interfaces to nerve tissue can gradually degrade in performance.
A video produced several weeks ago shows a 48-year-old Ohio man who lost his right hand in an accident three years ago using his prosthetic hand to pick up and remove stems from cherries without crushing them from excessive squeezing. This was thanks to the new technology, which allowed force detectors on the digits of his prosthetic hand to convey touch information directly to three pea-sized nerve interfaces surgically implanted in his lower right arm. He controls the hand through a standard technology called a myoelectric interface, which uses signals from the muscles in his lower arm to govern prosthetic hand movements.
The work opens up the possibility that prosthetic limbs could one day provide enduring and nuanced feedback to humans, says Dustin Tyler, the Case Western professor behind the project.

The IP is expected to become the main carrier of traffic to mobile and wireless nodes. Convergence of wireless networking and IP networking more and more requires solutions for transporting realtime application data to IP enabled mobile devices and mobile networks. Even though the basic mobile IPv6 protocol suite performs sufficient in macro environments with non realtime traffic, seamless mobility requires some more enhanced protocol procedures in between the mobile node and the involved network entities. Limiting the effect of handovers has the potential to considerably improve handover performance in terms of latency, packet loss, signaling overhead, and scalability. This contribution is going to present an extensive simulation study on the performance of a fast signaling approach in a mobile IPv6 environment. The demonstrated simulation scenario comprises 9 access router and up to 70 mobile nodes that communicate in accordance with the popular IEEE 802.11 wireless LAN standard.

COVID-19 Related Protocols for SY21-22
With the number of COVID-19 cases on the rise just as school is about to begin, quite a few questions have come up pertaining to masking and mask-wearing mandates. SB 658, signed into law this past session and now in effect, directly addresses the topic.
The first section of the bill (amending 70 O.S. Section 1210.191) requires each school district in the state to post on its website and in any publications to parents regarding immunization requests/requirements, a statement with the following information: “For school enrollment, a parent or guardian shall provide one of the following: 1. Current, up-to-date immunization records; or 2. A completed and signed exemption form.”
Section 2 of the bill (a new law – 70 O.S. Section 1210.189) states that a board of education of a public school district or tech school district (as well as the board of a public or private higher ed institution, the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education, the State Board of Education or the State Board of Career and Technology Education) shall not require a COVID-19 vaccination or a “vaccine passport” as a condition of admittance to or attendance of the school or institution, nor shall a board implement a mask mandate for students who are unvaccinated.
The third section of the bill (also a new law – 70 O.S. 1210.190) sets out the specific requirements for a public school or tech school board’s implementation of a mask (or other medical devices) mandate as follows: 1. A mandate may only be enacted after consultation with the local county health department in a jurisdiction where the board is located which is under a current state of emergency as declared by the governor; 2. The mandate must list the explicit purpose for the mandate. 3. The mandate must give the specific medical devices or masks, which would satisfy the mandate’s requirements. 4. Any mask (or other medical device) mandate has to be reconsidered by the board at each regularly scheduled board meeting.

Work is under way at the Salem Main Library to complete final construction details and move equipment, books and staff back to the renovated building. Over the past year and a half, renovations to the 1972 building have made it safer in an earthquake, more accessible inside and around the exterior of the building, and completed other critical improvements including:
- Systems updates (heating, cooling, plumbing, electrical, roof)
- Solar panels
- More windows
- Upgrades to the parkade
The renovated building is set to reopen to the public on Wednesday, September 1.
Tuesday-Thursday 10 a.m.-8 p.m.
Friday & Saturday 10 a.m.-6 p.m.
Sunday 1-6 p.m.
In preparation for the Main Library reopening, all Library locations will be closed to the public from Wednesday, August 18 to Tuesday, August 31. Library book drops will also be closed during this time. Salem Public Library at Broadway will permanently close August 18.
This will allow staff to focus their full time and attention on reopening tasks.
Online Library Services: Access to the library catalog, downloadable eBooks, audiobooks, and other virtual resources will remain available 24/7 throughout the closure. Direct staff contact will not be available.
Our library is committed to welcoming, open, and inclusive service to everyone in our community.
About the project
In November 2017, Salem voters passed General Obligation Bond Measure 24-432 for $18.6 million to address seismic, safety, accessibility and system improvements to the Salem Public Library.
The original, 1972 building was built before scientists discovered that a Cascadia Subduction Zone earthquake could impact the Salem region. A 2014 City-commissioned engineering study by the Portland firm BergerABAM, found that the library and parking structure don't meet life safety standards and library users, staff, and volunteers would be at risk in a major earthquake.
A seismic retrofit was chosen to increase life safety during an earthquake. Improved accessibility and cost-saving upgrades to the building's systems were also part of the project.
Residents helped shape project
Several opportunities were provided through the planning process for residents to get involved and share their opinions, including:
- February 19, 2019: Community Open House kicked off the design process and residents shared ideas about what we treasure about the Library building and what we hope could be improved. An online and paper survey was made available before and after the Open House to gather input from those unable to join the community conversation.
- April 30, 2019: Community Open House at the Library to share what we've learned and gather input on some of the initial design ideas. See what was presented.
- October 26, 2019: Community Open House to share how your ideas influenced the preliminary design for the Salem Public Library Renovation.

The project is being completed in three distinct phases:

VANCOUVER — Forthright about the need to improve his defence, Vancouver Canucks general manager Jim Benning has been searching for another blue-liner since the regular season ended.
But the closer he gets to National Hockey League free agency on July 1, the more likely it is that Benning will need at least two defencemen. And finding someone to upgrade the bottom of the blue line will be much easier than replacing top defenceman Alexander Edler if the career Canuck leaves as an unrestricted free agent in three weeks.
During a week-before-the-draft meeting with Vancouver reporters on Monday, Benning said he continues to talk to agent Mark Stowe about a contract that will satisfy Edler’s desire – and the team’s – that he finish his career with the Canucks.
Beyond that, Benning refused to provide any details about the apparently-stalled negotiations involving the 33-year-old.
But when asked about the possibility of a deal longer than two years encumbering the Canucks during the 2021 Seattle expansion draft, especially if Vancouver is required to protect Edler when he is 35 years old, Benning told Sportsnet:
"I think it’s fair to say we don’t have the appetite to do that. We had to do that last time (during the Las Vegas expansion draft in 2017) with Daniel and Henrik Sedin. But we’re going to have some good young players that we need to protect or we’ll lose them."
Stowe did not respond last week to Sportsnet’s interview requests, so for now neither side is revealing details about negotiations.
The shadows behind the curtains, however, appear to show a player and his agent getting ready to go to market to see how much money is available on July 1.
That’s how the NHL’s free-market system works. And in a lean year for free-agent defencemen, Edler will be one of the most coveted on the market, capable of leveraging a big payday.
There’s nothing wrong with that. Except it seems to contradict the many times Edler said how much he wants to remain with the Canucks and indicated that money would not be the driving factor in his next contract.
After refusing at the trade deadline in February to waive the no-trade clause on his expiring, six-year, $30-million contract, Edler said he was willing to work with the Canucks on an extension.
"I’ve been fortunate to have very good contracts with money," he said on March 2. "But there are other things, too. It’s different when you have a family. There are a lot of factors you have to take into consideration. Those things are important."
Edler has spent his entire 12-year NHL career with the Canucks and is the franchise’s all-time leading scorer among defencemen with 94 goals and 368 points in 814 games. He met his wife in Vancouver and this is the only home the couple’s two daughters know.
"Maybe I’m just a loyal guy who wants to play here and wants to live here and win here," Edler said in March. "I know that doesn’t always happen because the business doesn’t work out all the time. I understand that. But I’ve been treated well by this organization and city, and I’ve had some special moments here. Going through some tough years, that’s never fun. But the future looks better, and it would be pretty special to be part of that."
Edler can still get his wish. But if he wants a full-market deal with a no-movement clause, he’ll have to take his family somewhere else to get it, which would look like a lose-lose for both Edler and the Canucks.
• Having had a few days to compose himself and draw his jaw back to the closed position, Benning didn’t flinch when asked Monday what effect Jeff Skinner’s massive, $72-million extension with the Buffalo Sabres might have on future negotiations involving Canuck players.
Benning is trying to re-sign restricted free agent Brock Boeser "sooner rather than later," but may see the asking price go up after the Sabres agreed to pay $9-million per season to a player who scored a career-high 40 goals last year but has averaged only 52 points during his eight full NHL seasons.
Benning correctly noted that Skinner, 27, was an impending UFA while the Canucks "control" Boeser, the 22-year-old RFA. But all contracts matter, including massive ones coming soon for Toronto Maple Leafs RFA Mitch Marner, 22, and Calgary Flames free agent Mathew Tkachuk, 21.
"Those guys signing could affect Brock’s contract, but we’re more concerned about our own business and trying to figure something out for Brock that makes sense for him and the team," Benning said.
• There is always a good deal of smoke swirling around the Canucks, and Benning added to the smudge when he said he’ll be contacting winger Loui Eriksson this week to ask about comments attributed to the Swede during last month’s world championships.
In an interview with website HockeySverige that was reported on the West Coast through Google-translate, Eriksson was quoted as saying of Canuck coach Travis Green: "The coach and I don’t really get on 100 per cent. It is difficult when I do not get the same trust that I received from all the other coaches I’ve had during my career."
Eriksson, 33, has scored only 32 goals in three seasons since signing a front-loaded, bonus-heavy $36-million six-year contract with the Canucks in 2016. He was a healthy scratch once for the Canucks last season, but Green has trusted Eriksson in a shutdown role and as a key penalty killer.
Benning didn’t rule out the possibility that Eriksson may need a fresh start elsewhere, and there have been unsettling rumours of a possible trade involving the Edmonton Oilers’ Milan Lucic, who has been an even bigger disappointment since signing a seven-year, $42-million deal the same day the Canucks signed Eriksson.


Brothers went down sharply on Monday at India Box office
Brothers Fourth Day Box Office Collections:
6.23 Crore ( Producer Figure) as shared by Fox Star.
55.21 Crore nett ( Trade Figure)
On Its First Monday Brothers went down by around 60% as compared to its First Friday.
This is not a good trend for the long term.
Despite this Brothers might end as second highest grossing first week ever for Akshay Kumar in his career the current highest first week ever being Rowdy Rathore.
84.92 Crores gross ( first weekend) 2nd Highest of 2015 behind Bajrangi Bhaijaan. See countrywise break up here
Budget: 82 Crore All inclusive
With brothers what most exhibitors have been reporting that while youth have flocked the cinemas and have given the opening the families have stayed away from the movie.
Mostly most of the trade has been complaining is that movie is too gruesome and thus have alienated the female audiences and the family.
While appeal to youth ensures that movie takes an opening it is the family audiences which ensures that movie has a longer run which is missing here.
Another aspect which is surprising to trade is that Brothers is a remake of Warrior and Warrior though was a critically acclaimed movie but was a disaster at the box office.
If you are buying rights and remaking the movie than at least invest in a commercially viable project is the refrain being heard in trade
First Weekend box office collections are 2nd Highest of 2015 behind only Bajrangi Bhaijaan and ahead of ABCD 2, Gabbar is Back and Baby
First Weekend is the biggest ever weekend for Akshay Kumar ahead of rowdy rathore which had collected 46.04 Crore.
First Weekend is the biggest ever weekend for Siddharth Malhotra ahead of Ek Villain which had collected 49.28 Crore.
On its day 2 it was the first time ever that either of Akshay Kumar or Siddharth Malhotra’s movie collected more than 20 crore in a day.
15.2 Crore ( Producer Figure) as shared by Fox Star.
13.68 Crore ( Trade Figure)
21.43 Crore ( Producer Figure) as shared by Fox Star.
3850 out of which 3400 Pan India + 450 overseas
Brothers Budget :
82 Crores Total out of which production Cost: 65 Crores and prints and Advertising Cost 17 Crore.
Brothers is the most expensive movie for Akshay Kumar as the budget is more than both Baby and Gabbar is Back.
Akshay Kumar’s current salary is estimated to be in the range of 25 Crores and is part of total budget.
Brothers Economics: (Profit and Loss Analysis):
Producers of Brothers are already safe and have made pre release profit by selling off satellite rights and music for 42 Crores and Distribution Rights for 55 Crores.
Pre release Profit for Producers: 15 Crores
India and overseas rights for brothers have been sold to Fox Star at 55 Crores.
Fox Star would need to recover this purely from Theatrical Business in india and overseas to have a recovery.

text: A woman has been arrested in connection with two dogs that were \u201cseverely malnourished,\u201d according to an arrest affidavit. Irma Elva Sanchez, 67, was charged with two counts of cruelty to non-livestock animals, fail to provide, a Class A misdemeanor that carries a punishment of up to one year in jail, a $4,000 fine or both. Webb County Jail records show that Sanchez is out on bond. The case unfolded at about 4:43 a.m. Thursday, when a Laredo police officer responded to a cruelty to animals call in the 4500 block of Christine Lane. An animal control officer stated to police that she had arrived at the residence to check on a gray pitbull that was chained up by the front of the home. The animal control officer stated that this is the second time they had arrived at the location for the same incident. The animal control officer observed a pitbull \u201cseverely malnourished\u201d and without shelter against the elements of the weather, according to the affidavit. The pitbull did not have food or water, according to court documents. \u201cI observed the pitbull trembling due to the cold weather, and it did not have a proper shelter,\u201d the officer wrote in the affidavit. A neighbor had placed food in the pitbull\u2019s bowl. The officer could notice the dog\u2019s ribs and spine, according to court documents. Police said the owner was not at the residence but was on her way back to the home. A woman, Sanchez, arrived at the location. She initially claimed that the pitbull was not hers and that it belonged to a man. Moments later, she stated that the dog did belong to her. She added the pitbull was given to her on Dec. 4, 2020. She stated she feeds the pitbull but believes the dog had worms, according to court documents. \u201cThe owner stated that she currently is not financially stable and (is) unable to seek the proper treatment with a veterinarian or turn them over to a shelter due to Animal Control charging her a $30 fee for the K-9 to get transported,\u201d states the affidavit. Sanchez then allegedly confessed to having another dog in her backyard in the same condition. Officers then located a doberman without proper shelter, food or water. Its ribs could be seen, according to court documents. \u201cThe doberman was chained up and had feces lying around the ground,\u201d states the affidavit. Report animal abuse The City of Laredo released a statement saying that leaving a pet outside in severe weather isn\u2019t just inhumane, it is against the law in Texas. As the historic low temperatures continue in Laredo, city officials want to remind the community that keeping a pet outside in frigid weather falls under the category of cruelty, unless sufficient shelter, along with food and water that is not frozen, is provided. \u201cWe want to have people see that animal cruelty is not taken lightly,\u201d said Councilman Alberto Torres. Torres urged the community to bring their pets inside during this dangerous winter storm and report neglected animals to law enforcement. \u201cThere is zero tolerance for anyone found to be in violation, and members of the newly formed Animal Cruelty Task Force stand ready to respond,\u201d he said. Torres added that having a pet is not just having it on a leash. People also need to be caring for the animal. Torres said the city is doing everything it can to be the voice of the voiceless and end neglect and report animal abuse. Karina Elizondo, Animal Control Services interim director, said that the best way to protect pets against the cold weather is to bring them inside, purchasing an insulated doghouse or building a protective enclosure that shields them from the elements. Another alternative for those residents who are experiencing power outages and unable to care for their pet, the City of Laredo has set up a temporary animal shelter at the Sames Auto Arena. For any questions, or to report any animal-related concern between 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., contact 3-1-1 or the Animal Control Services Department at (956) 625-1860. Reports after hours should be made via the Laredo Police Department app or by calling their non-emergency line at (956) 795-2800 or Laredo Crime Stoppers at 727-TIPS (8477).

Why Does Edmonton Need Infill Development?
Since the 1950s, following the discovery of oil in the adjacent area of Leduc, Edmonton has experienced a period of spectacular growth. In just over 100 years, Edmonton grew from a small town into a metropolitan region with over 1.2 million residents. A population explosion, a new civic centre, new subdivisions, and new suburbs transformed the city and the surrounding area. Edmonton became a major centre for the petrochemical industry and expanded its traditional role as a government, educational and transportation centre. We are now starting to experience what I would call a hangover from these cycles of extreme growth and development. We are beginning to recognize now that the model of building out and out and out, suburb after suburb, is perhaps not the best way to develop a city. It does not create a resilient city or insulate it well from swinging oil prices, or position the city well for future growth.
There is now a growing need and desire to revisit the areas of the city that were built during these previous boom-and-bust cycles. The suburbs of the 50s and onwards were built very much around a car culture. They were also built as a series of monolithic structures, all intended for the same demographic – young families. These types of developments work well in the immediate short term, and for a while it flourishes. Schools are full and homes are affordable due to material and floor plan repetition and cheap land. But when you build a community around one demographic, what happens as that demographic ages, and when the infrastructure ages? As well, the older homes were built with cheap materials, using floor plans that are no longer desirable for today’s families. They need major retrofit and repair. As a result, many schools, community parks and municipal infrastructure are now under-utilized.
The area of our city that is seeing negative population growth also has some of the lowest density housing in the entire city. What you see here is an overall gradual increase in density in the suburban communities as the city was built out over the decades.
Over the years, urban planners have gradually learned to design our communities better. They have learned that we need diverse housing options, denser built forms, more walkable neighbourhoods with local amenities, more climate appropriate design, and more transit oriented design that allows for less dependency on a car.
So, what does the leave us with? Opportunity. The opportunity to revitalize our older neighbourhoods in such a way that injects new life, new housing types, and more diversification in the demographics. A healthy community is a diverse community, and a diverse community requires different housing options – big, small, luxury, affordable, market housing, government subsidized housing. You need a healthy balance and mix so you attract a diverse population and culture.
This is why infill development and densification of these older suburbs is becoming a hot topic of discussion in Edmonton, and why I was a founding member of IDEA – the Infill Development in Edmonton Association. The city is learning now that they cannot use the same principles and permitting approaches to infill that they have been using for brand new communities. It requires more skill, more facilitation and more urban planning knowledge to understand the additional constraints created by infill. Developers have learnt very quickly that they cannot use the same business models or construction approaches that they use in the suburbs. Infill development is harder, more time consuming, and often lower returns on investment. So why is infill important to me?
I grew up on a farm, where I was raised to think about the impacts of my actions today and how they affected generations tomorrow. We were organic before organic became “cool”. It was harder work, with lower immediate returns, but the long-term benefits far outweighed the short-term pain. My mother instilled in me the importance of striving to leave the world a better place than when I found it. Combine that with a passion for buildings, I have realized that the legacy I want to leave behind is to be a great city builder.
Edmonton is now at the stage of its evolution where we need to inject new investment in many of our older suburbs. They were designed monolithically with one demographic in mind many years ago, and we now know better. A healthy community is a diverse community – a community that works for all Edmontonians.
That’s all for now, chat again soon.
All the best,

A new PS5 patent indicating backwards compatibility has been filed by lead systems architect Mark Cerny.
originally viewed @shaunmcilroy A new patent named ‘Backward compatibility through use of spoof clock and fine grain frequency control’ has been filed on Twitter. USPTO, Considering the PS5 is already capable of supporting PS4 games, this patent may be intended to allow players to access the likes of PS1, PS2, or PS3 games on current-gen consoles.
New @cerny patent fixed @ looks like he nailed the BC for the old #PlayStation console pic.twitter.com/7n8zyzjcic12 January 2022
The patent overview itself explains how this fix works. To save you a whole lot of technical talk, it essentially explains how “an application designed for the current version of the system” runs at that system’s standard clock frequency, so PS5 games run on the PS5’s frequencies. Whereas PS3 games play on PS3. clock frequency. Sony intends to introduce a “spoof clock,” which will “return a number that matches the frequency of a less powerful console,” tricking the PS5 into accepting older games.
There is no way to know how long it will take for this patent to reach players or whether it will even be used. So, unfortunately, for now, PlayStation fans will have to stick with owning all five generations of the console in order to play their favorite games.
Cerny’s new patent is in line with other recent claims that Sony may be working on some kind of Xbox Game Pass competitor. In the last 24 hours there has been news that Retailers start pulling PS Now cards from stores, in an effort to eliminate all of them by January 21, 2022. This would also coincide with the claims that a The PlayStation Game Pass rival is reportedly set to launch this spring.
