Second shipment of Pfizer COVID-19 arrives in Australia, boosting national supply
A second shipment of the Pfizer vaccine has arrived in Australia on board a Singapore Airlines flight that touched down in Sydney early this morning.
The cargo will now go into cold storage, before being batch tested and then sent to vaccination hubs across the country to bolster the national COVID-19 jab rollout.
Health Minister Greg Hunt confirmed the arrival and said it was the first of two to land in the next week.
LIVE UPDATES: Hopes international travel will return within months
"This is the start of a program that will help protect lives, save lives across Australia and give people a pathway to returning to a more normal lifestyle," Mr Hunt said in Canberra this morning.
In total there will be 280,000 additional doses of the Pfizer vaccine to arrive in Australia between the two shipments.
That includes 166,000 doses to have arrived today, with 120,000 to land next week, he said.
"We'll make 80,000 doses available over the coming week, 50,000 to the states, 30,000 to aged care through the Commonwealth," he said.
"It's important that we have consistency, we're always provisioning for the second doses."
Mr Hunt said he had spoken to the CEO of Pfizer overnight and said the company had provided "good, strong confidence and forward guidance of their continued deliveries".
"And that just gives Australians confidence in terms of the effectiveness of vaccines and confidence in terms of the reliability of supply."
The Pfizer vaccine is the only vaccine currently being used here, with the Federal Government purchasing 10 million doses.
Mr Hunt said the locally-made AstraZeneca vaccination remained "on track" for a March rollout.
"That's very heartening," he said.
The first Victorian to receive the Pfizer jab was Professor Rhonda Stuart, the head of infection prevention at Monash Health. She also treated the state's first coronavirus patient, in January 2020, and the last patient to be discharged from hospital in November.
Professor Monash has welcomed the rollout of the Pfizer jab, praising it as "a huge step forward".
"All frontline health care workers have gone through a lot in the last 12 months and we have seen lots of patients come into the hospital, we've looked after them and we've seen some deaths and we've had to deal with our own fear of coming down with the virus as well," Professor Stuart told Today.
"It's been a huge year. To have a vaccine that we can use to prevent ongoing disease and prevent our hospitals going forward is a huge step forward."
She is urging everyone to get the vaccination when it becomes available to them.
"It's certainly going to change the way we need to think about COVID going forward and that's really important. What we need is everybody to come on board and get vaccinated," Professor Stuart said.
"We've now got this tool that we can use against COVID. And it's not just about preventing people dying from COVID, it's about preventing people from getting sick with COVID.
"Preventing them coming into our hospitals and overwhelming the health system so we can use our hospitals to treat other important things like heart disease and cancer, things that aren't being looked after well overseas because they're overwhelmed with COVID.
"It's going to change the way our hospitals work. It can also change the way we live in our public lives. We won't need to go into lockdowns anymore.
"We might be able to have holidays and potentially travel overseas again. So, it's a really big step to see light at the end of the tunnel."
Victoria hopes to vaccinate 12,000 people this week and Professor Stuart says she and other health professionals were prepared.
"We are ready to vaccinate when the vaccine comes to us. As soon as the vaccine hits our hub, our vaccine hub, we will be vaccinating all our health care workers and then rolling out to the public."

It comes as leading epidemiologists think international travel could be back on the cards within months, thanks to the vaccine rollout.

Samsung Galaxy Note 5 Review
Samsung has had made some exceptional phones in the recent times out of which the Note series stands out outstandingly. Now with the launch of Samsung Galaxy Note 5, some bold changes have been seen in Samsung. It has been completely redesigned. In our review for Samsung Galaxy Note 5, we will be analysing the new direction and will find out whether it should be bought or not.
The Galaxy Note 5 was launched on August 21, 2015, in the US on AT&T, Verizon, Sprint, T-Mobile and US Cellular. Samsung’s new Galaxy Note 5 breaks away from how Samsung typically designs its Note device series and so follow the company’s newly launched smart phone, Galaxy S6. This phone comes with an improved stylus known as the S-Pen which enables better multi-tasking, enhanced video quality and new productivity features. The new model will be available in three different colors in India: Black Sapphire, Sliver Titanium and gold Platinum.
Samsung Galaxy Note 5 – The Big Baby Review!
Samsung Galaxy Note 5 Design:
Samsung Galaxy Note 5 is very comfortable to hold but it is difficult to be used by one hand due to its 5.7-inch screen. Since the introduction of Galaxy Alpha series, Samsung has been using metal frames in most of its premium handsets. The metallic rim on the phone curves smoothly so that it is wider at the top and the bottom and slightly narrower on the sides. As compared to the predecessors of Galaxy Note 5, it seems to be stronger and sturdier. The combination of extra tough 7000 series aluminium and Gorilla glass 4 give it an ultra-refined look and a stronger build. The usual rear panels have been replaced by the new all-glass look and the body colour of Note 5 is clearly visible through the back panel. The back of the Phone is very shiny, thanks to the metallic finish. Samsung has taken a very big leap forward with Note 5 here in terms of design quality.
Galaxy Note 5 is certainly very beautiful. The materials used for the design makes it feel a more advanced and higher in a class device than its predecessors in the series, but it has also lost some of its typical Note qualities or features. There is no slot for a memory card which might disappoint many users. The battery on the device is not replaceable which also means that the back of the phone is not removable.
Display and Audio:
Galaxy Note 5 display, as mentioned earlier is a 5.7 inch Super AMOLED unit with QHD resolution. This means that there is no display quite like it, not even the dual edge display of Galaxy S6 Edge looks quite as good as one with Note 5. The colour brilliance and the brightness of Note 5 are the best. Galaxy Note 5 is more comparable with Galaxy S6 as both have the same resolution of 2,560 x 1,440 pixels but as the screen size of Note 5 is bigger, the pixel density is lower. The pixel density still amounts to 518 ppi which are very good and would not be a cause of complaint about the users. As compared to Note 4, the display of Note 5 is much brighter even in the brightest of lights. One more plus on the brightness is that it is more power- efficient. According to one of the websites, it provides the best colour reproduction of all the mobile displays. Samsung Galaxy Note 5 has also set a new record on display brightness.
Now the sound on Note 5 is a thing everyone would appreciate. It features UHQA (Ultra High-Quality Audio), which upgrades the audio files and streaming music with a better and higher quality sound. The built in UHQA feature adjusts the equalizer in real-time. It works great for both wireless and wired headphones. The UHQA abilities will work perfectly well with the third-party music apps as long as they support the codec. The phone also has a mono speaker at the bottom right but one would need to play with the equalizer settings to get a decent sound.
Samsung Galaxy Note 5 Camera
Samsung has opted to use the 16MP Sony IMX240 Sensor with Galaxy Note 5 which comes along with the f/1.9 lens. The camera is pretty simple to use and most of the settings are available in the viewfinder. It offers different shooting modes. The colour adjustments are also very advanced. Live Broadcast is also a hot new feature that comes with Note 5. It allows one to share the live feed with the world via YouTube.
Overall, Note 5 Camera is fast and responsive at all times. The shooting experience it gives is one of the best any phone would offer. We can say the same about the image quality as well. The images consist of plenty of details, a dynamic range of sharpness and great colours.
It is equipped with a 5MP front camera which has the same aperture and offers Live HDR and colour filters as well. It allows a very wide selfie mode so it can easily capture very good group selfies. One can also click selfies with a tap on the heart-rate sensor on the back of the phone. For those looking for a good camera on a smart phone, one should definitely shortlist Note 5.
Samsung Galaxy Note 5 Performance:
Note 5 comes with a very powerful Exynos 7420 processor with eight core and a speed of more than 2.1 GHz. It comes with 4GB RAM and as with Galaxy S6 Edge+ there is only a choice between 32GB and 64GB versions. 4GB RAM allows great multi-tasking performance. The re-launching of the applications is often very slow for a device with a 4GB RAM. It seems that Samsung went with a 4GB RAM for marketing purpose rather than better performance. It also deals with very aggressive power saving but this, in turn, makes the performance with multi-tasking very low. The phone is very speedy and responsive.
Samsung Galaxy Note 5 Graphics and Gaming
Galaxy Note 5 is available with great graphics which makes it very good for games as well. The phone offers a great display with games and also with the help of 4GB RAM, the gaming experience for the gamers would be extremely good. There would be no lagging. Also, with the help of the octa-core processor, the gaming would be even more wonderful.
Note 5 Heat and Noise
Heating is a common issue among Note 5 users. This is one thing the users should always check. When your battery is hot or even when you think the phone is getting heated, then the reason can be that a number of applications are running in the background. So if you come up with this issue, try to use fewer applications at a time. This is a way to curb the heating issue with Note 5. Noise is not much of an issue with the phone so the users can be rest assured that their phone is not going to make any weird noise other than the phone ringtones.
Note 5 Software
Note 5 has a number of software updates. It is based on Android 5.1.1 Lollipop and is fast making way for an update to Android Marshmallow. It also runs on TouchWiz UI. Its software is similar to that of Galaxy S6. Other than small changes to the launcher, the only notable change is the new iconography, where all the icons are rounded-off squares with more colourful and flat looks. It is also same with the app folders which are of the same size as the new application icons.
It has a sealed battery and also has cut down 2200mAh to 3000 mAh from Note 4. The battery has roughly 17% greater capacity than Galaxy S6 which is, of course, a very big difference. Note 5 has also got some improved battery optimization which means the battery is pretty good and is not an issue to worry about in any way.
Samsung Galaxy Note 5 is priced at around INR 48,000 and it normally comes for a warranty period of one year. Now with the help of these reviews one may actually have an idea of how good Galaxy Note 5 is and how right it is to buy it.

Baz brings home a positive message from Australia
The large crowd gathered on a Khar road probably didn’t know that the man in the golf cap, aviators and spray-painted t-shirt, they were craning to get a glimpse of was Australian filmmaker Baz Luhrmann.mumbai Updated: Jan 28, 2010 00:41 IST
The large crowd gathered on a Khar road probably didn’t know that the man in the golf cap, aviators and spray-painted t-shirt, they were craning to get a glimpse of was Australian filmmaker Baz Luhrmann.
But taking a clue from filmmaker Kaizad Gustad’s camera crew tailing Luhrmann on a rickety ledge, they guessed it was someone famous. Director of critically acclaimed films, Romeo and Juliet and Moulin Rouge, Luhrmann seemed at ease with the chaos he was causing. “I love it here. Every time I come here it’s so intense but on the second day you just have to surrender to it,” he said while sipping a masala mojito.
“Terrible and completely un-Australian events have happened in the recent past,” he said referring to the recent attacks on Indians in Australia.
“The entire nation is disgusted and shocked by what’s going on. Vincent (Fantauzzo) and I took up this creative adventure to bring a positive message to India,” said Luhrmann, who is in Mumbai to paint a wall at India’s first art hotel, Le
Luhrmann and Australian artist Fantauzzo had an eventful first morning in the city as the former caught up with his “old friend AR (Rahman)”. “We’ve always wanted to work together but don’t want to force it either. We find ways to spend time together,” said Luhrmann, who is working on two musicals and two new film scripts, one of which is an adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby.
Luhrmann also spoke about his “dear friend” and actor Nicole Kidman whom he cast in Moulin Rouge, Australia and in a Channel No 5 advertisement. “She constantly faces fear and is ready to fall on her face only to rise again. She has daring. She is both iconic and human,” Luhrmann revealed.
Kidman was last seen in his historic epic Australia, a film he made so that his “circus children” get to know their country
of birth. “My kids travel with us. We live in Paris and New York but even though they have international wings they need to know where their centre is,” he explained.
The duo is headed to Rajasthan next, which they intend to photo-document while biking through the desert city. “Riding forces you to engage with people. On a bike you stop being a brand. It’s the best way to participate in peoples lives,” Luhrmann said.

- Constellation Brands said it will acquire direct-to-consumer wine company Empathy Wines, co-founded by entrepreneur Gary Vaynerchuk in 2019.
- The deal comes as states slow their reopening plans. New restrictions on bars and indoor dining could boost alcohol e-commerce.
- The pandemic has accelerated a shift in consumer spending online, which has helped niche e-commerce brands.
Constellation Brands announced plans on Wednesday to acquire Empathy Wines, a direct-to-consumer vintner co-founded by entrepreneur Gary Vaynerchuk.
Terms were not disclosed.
related investing news
Empathy, founded in 2019, has sold about 15,000 cases of its signature California-sourced wine and has amassed more than 2,000 subscribed customers, who purchase the product exclusively online.
The acquisition comes at a time when many states are slowing or reversing their reopening plans as coronavirus cases climb. Restrictions on bars and indoor dining may be extended, providing a boon for alcohol e-commerce.
"The DTC (direct-to-consumer) market was growing at more than two times the rate of the general market in wine consumption pre-Covid," said Robert Hanson, president of wine and spirits for Constellations Brands, which has a wide array of wines in its portfolio, including Robert Mondavi, Ruffino, Simi and The Dreaming Tree. "Everything that's occurred since has just been an acceleration of that."
Vaynerchuk has long been an innovator in the e-commerce space. He started working at his family's retail wine business, bagging ice, at age 14. He used the business as a springboard to building the Wine Library into an e-commerce platform in the late-'90s. During his tenure, the company grew from doing $3 million in annual sales to $60 million. Since then, Vaynerchuk has gone on to start several other businesses, including restaurant reservation booking platform Resy, which was acquired by American Express in 2019.
Consumers have been slow to shop for alcohol online. But the coronavirus pandemic is shifting more sales online, and wine and spirits have seen some of the greatest gains. The category saw a 74% increase in online sales from March 11 through April 21, according to a June report from Adobe.
"I would argue, out of every category on the consumer level, bev alc has the most to gain, because most people were not educated on the options," Vaynerchuk said. "Most people understood they could buy cereal, soap, a plant and spoons on the internet, [but] because of the way liquor laws have been through the years ... there was a lot of misinformation or lack of education on the options."
While online giant Amazon has benefited from the spike in e-commerce, an array of smaller sites and niche brands like Empathy has seen surges in their businesses that were previously unimaginable.
Delivery services like Minibar, which operates in 18 states, saw a jump in orders as high as 131% in mid-March, while competitor Drizly, which operates in 26 states plus the District of Columbia and Alberta, Canada, saw sales up about 300% from earlier in the year. In mid-April, roughly one month after shelter-in-place orders began taking effect, Nielsen reported that online alcoholic beverage sales rose 387% for the week ended April 11.
However, while more Americans are buying alcohol to drink at home, researchers say that it's not enough to offset lost sales at bars, restaurants and sporting venues. Brand analysis company IWSR expects to see double-digit declines for fiscal year 2020, and estimates that it will take five years for sales to return to pre-Covid levels like those seen in 2019, when worldwide beverage alcohol volume saw a slight increase.
"Like many other industries, it's incredible how a few months of lockdown will result in several years of recovery," said Mark Meek, CEO of IWSR. "But ... alcohol has proven to be remarkably resilient in previous downturns, and this should be no different."
In expressing his conviction for the deal, Vaynerchuk said Constellation is "the pinnacle of who you'd want to be in business with."
"I'm not in the mood to start businesses to sell, especially this quickly," he said. "[But] you couldn't even really comprehend the delta difference between their (Constellation's) capabilities and what we did at Empathy. That was too attractive to pass up, and this is a little bit of a romance play for me. I grew up admiring Simi and Robert Mondavi. This is absolutely childhood dream stuff."
Vaynerchuk will remain with Constellation as a consultant after the deal closes, while Empathy's other co-founders, Jon Troutman and Nate Scherotter, will join Constellation to run the business's day-to-day operations, according to a press release.
"Key to our strategy is being consumer obsessed," said Constellation Brands CEO Bill Newlands in a press release. "We believe Empathy Wines is the right strategic partner to help us deliver exceptional brands and experiences to our consumers."
Also Wednesday, Constellation reported its fiscal first-quarter results, which received a boost from stronger- than-expected sales of wine and spirts. Beer sales were weaker than expected, as the pandemic slowed Mexican beer production, hurting inventory levels at distributors.
Constellation shares rose about 2% in premarket trading.
For the quarter ended May 31, Constellation posted a loss of $177.9 million, or 94 cents a share, compared with a loss of $245.4 million, or $1.30 a share a year ago. Excluding restructuring costs and other items, the company earned $2.30 a share. If its Canopy Growth investment is excluded as well, Constellation earned $2.44 a share.
Sales fell 6% to $1.96 billion, hurt by the closure of bars and restaurants to help stem the spread of coronavirus.

"Ahhh! Good evening and welcome," says the concierge with a broad, easy smile that affirms the benefits of fine breeding and good diet. "Please, please, come in and warm yourself by the fire. There's coffee and tea laid out in the drawing room. It shouldn't be long now."
Shaking the mist from my hair, I step into a richly carved phone booth, which bears an uncanny likeness to a church confessional, to read an antique advertisement hanging above the low bench seat. The ink drawing captures the four-floor Victorian as it was, providing a glimpse of the Sutter Street guesthouse in an earlier incarnation; the phone number for the reputable Girls Friendly Society Lodge is listed as West 252. A more contemporary notice hangs on the wall just outside the phone booth, offering continental breakfast, limo service, and tea and sherry at 4 p.m., the last being the sort of decorum the building's original owner, Sen. James Graham Fair, would have been likely to appreciate.
Constructed at the turn of the 19th century as a girls' school where Fair's daughters were meant to be educated, the institution closed down rather quickly, becoming a boarding home for respectable working girls, and then a rather shadowy "men's club," before Fair donated it to the Episcopal Church. Lovingly refurbished to nearly its original state, the Queen Anne still bears remnants of its past -- including a large oaken bench with lion-claw feet, wolf-head armrests, and batwing crowns, once used by priests -- but that's why we're here. In the drawing room, young ladies recline on couches covered in richly woven fabrics surrounded by low marble tabletops and Baroque curtains; beaded lampshades, porcelain dolls, and an exquisite baby grand piano gleam warmly in the flicker of the crackling fireplace. Firelight dances across the oil portraits on the walls, causing the faces to stretch and waver within their gold-gilt frames as the powdery scent of bergamot and potpourri wafts through the air.
Liza Burgos, a 23-year-old San Francisco resident, suddenly appears at the top of the main staircase, scampering down the short, narrow flight to join her friends on one of the couches.
"It's spooky up there," she says with a shiver. "Mirrors everywhere and dead quiet; I mean, really quiet. You know what I mean."
I step onto the red-carpeted landing, allowing my fingers to slide along the sanguine walls as I climb, noting the titles of the decorative fox-hunting lithographs: Full Cry, Breaking Cover, Death. At the top of the stairs, I understand a Burgos allusion to The Shining. My reflection, small and pale against the ruby walls and ruddy wood, peers back at me from an ornate wall-length mirror; silent hallways stretch in either direction, accented by stained-glass windows and hand-painted trunks. There is not a sound, just long-ago dorm rooms and a shimmering cupola overhead.
Beautiful it is, but not if you're alone. I rush downstairs to find more guests in the sitting room, gathered around a magazine table that is carved to look like a miniature carriage. In the library, a paranormal investigator from Dublin calling himself the Reverend Hellshaw sits in deep conversation with 33-year-old Tiffany Lee Brown, a participant in the seminal counterculture Internet community FringeWare who is visiting from Portland. I introduce myself, but our conversation about the debunking of lake monsters and the editing of Blather, Hellshaw's Web zine on paranormal occurrences in Ireland, is cut short by the dramatic entrance of our guide, Jim Fassbinder. As one might expect of any good guide, Fassbinder arrives well-outfitted (long black leather duster, leather high hat, crisp white shirt, thick leather vest), well-equipped (kerosene lantern and satchel of reference materials), and well-recommended (as a longtime member of the International Ghost Hunters Society, founding member of the Paranormal Research Organization, and leader of the San Francisco Ghost Hunt for nearly five years). We gather around while Fassbinder asks the spirits if they'd like some company tonight; the affirmative answer comes by way of an affable, humorous, and complicated card trick Fassbinder performs, putting us immediately at ease and setting the tone for the night. We follow him to the fourth floor, where he stands behind an old pulpit at the top of the stairs, providing the history of the Queen Anne, sprinkled with jokes and seemingly heartfelt affection for the long-departed headmistress of Miss Mary Lake's School for Girls.
"It's said she still keeps an eye on the old place," entices Fassbinder. "I have the key to her office. Should we step inside?"
Fourteen of us eagerly push into No. 408, sitting on the cool bed as Fassbinder relates tales of moving cold spots, vaporous figures in the hall, and numerous reported incidents during which guests awoke to find themselves covered in an extra blanket and tucked in all around their bodies, up to their necks.
"She's a benevolent spirit," concludes Fassbinder. "Just wants everyone to stay nice and warm."
We are set loose to explore the hotel in the hope of meeting Miss Lake. Eager to suspend disbelief, I will myself to climb a darkened stairway that leads to the attic. Alone. While forcing myself to think of all the ghost stories that have culminated in a solo trip to the attic. In spite of the locked door I discover at the head of the stairs, my heart is racing, and I think I'm ready.
In the cool evening air, under a row of eucalyptus trees planted by the "Voodoo Queen of San Francisco," Fassbinder raises his lantern and tells the tale of Mary Ellen Pleasant, a former slave who became one of the wealthiest and most influential African-American women in San Francisco history. An open supporter of the Underground Railroad, the 6-foot-tall Georgian was equally open with the information she wielded over the rich men of this city and the rituals she employed to put it to use. Eventually, in addition to rumors that she had slain more than one rich husband, Pleasant was accused of murdering her accountant; she spent her final days penniless and mad, wandering under the eucalyptus trees in front of her former mansion, spitting and throwing "gumnuts" at people. According to neighborhood lore, it is a pastime from which her ghost still derives great satisfaction.
"I've seen people get hit so hard with gumnuts that it raised welts," says Fassbinder, passing around one of the pungent seeds. "I like to think of her as my patron saint."
We move on while Fassbinder dapples our journey with personal anecdotes, spiritualist lore, historical facts, and neighborhood ghost stories: Flora Sommerton, the lady in white thought to haunt California Street; Claudia Chambers, a niece of Sen. Richard Chambers, allegedly cut in half by a farming implement in her California Street mansion, which prompted her spirit to start dropping doors on people and hurling toilet seats at their heads (Fassbinder claims Chambers was actually chased down the attic stairs by her insane cousin and stabbed to death, information he shared with the house's new owners); the ghost ship of San Francisco Bay, said to be inhabited by a first mate who was murdered for having an affair with his captain's wife; and the Atherton Mansion, said to be haunted by Dominga de Goni Atherton, Gertrude Atherton, Carrie Rousseau, and George Atherton. The latter's corpse was discovered in a barrel of rum.
"It's not the nightmares that are bad, it's my reaction to them," explains Jeremy Lassen, owner of Nightshade Book, treasured employee of Borderland Books, and notorious problem sleeper at SpookyCon. "When I was 17, my mother found me standing at the front door completely naked, trying to escape giant fluorescent spiders. That's pretty mild. I've punched through double-paned, vacuum-sealed windows. At one book convention, I was sharing a room with [Welsh author] Tim Lebbon, and I leapt on top of him in the middle of the night, trying to beat the demon that was sitting on his chest. But I've only choked my wife twice."
Twenty-six-year-old Anthony Leano from Vacaville's Game Warden Comics and Collective Videos recalls a nightmare in which he was run off the road by a shimmering demon in a black van. A cop showed up, but the demon driver disemboweled him, then slaughtered all Leano's friends, after which it leaned close to his face and said, "Sh-sh-sh-sh."
"Then I woke up," says Leano with a shiver. "And my brother says, 'Dad found you on the lawn all covered in blood. You've been asleep for two days. What happened?' Then he goes downstairs to eat dinner, and Dad walks by and says, 'Sh-sh-sh-sh.' Then I really woke up. Ooh, that was freaky."
"I remember being eaten by a shark, feeling it bite into me," says 31-year-old Egan Hirvela. "The water pressing in on me."
"I remember being chased by a werewolf that was actually the lead singer of the Hellbillies, who I'm really attracted to," says 23-year-old Angie Yesson.
"My mom used to dream about a guy who fried kittens in a pan over an open fire," says Sharon Maher, associate editor of music mag IndustrialnatioN.
"I don't really have nightmares," says Serena Valentino, who is, ironically, the creator of the comic book Nightmares and Fairytales. "The worst nightmare I ever had was the one where I found myself making out with John Stamos. That was pretty horrible."
"Just last night, I dreamt that my friend and I went to a thrift store to buy baby booties," says Sherezada Windham-Kent, information pages editor at the Film Arts Foundation. "The owner's son had been turned into a zombie, and she was trying to trap us with him in the back room. I knocked him over, and my friend stabbed him in the heart. I hate zombies."
"Everybody loves zombies," assures a pale woman with sunken eyes as I step over the sheets of plastic laid out for SpookyCon's "Miss Undead 2003" beauty pageant. "Don't forget your Necro Wipes. It gets the dead off."
I smile and shuffle into the 10th row with my anti-zombie wetnap. Amidst surf rock provided by Prince Kong & the Royal Gravediggers and bad one-liners provided by Rusty Bonesaw, seven of the world's most bilious brain-sucking beauties take the stage: Miss Feculent, Miss Rotten, Miss Char, Miss Rancid, Miss Putrescent, Miss Gruesome, and Miss Odiferous. They sing, they dance; they lurch and drool; they groan and grimace; they peel off their skin and pull out their intestines; they try to light themselves on fire and eat the audience's brains. All and all, they make us proud and happy to live in such a spooky town.


- Sharp Corp. has developed a small LCD liquid crystal display module that has a wide viewing angle like that of a conventional television. With LCDs to date, the contrasts of images become inverted when viewed from an angle. But with Sharp's new module, images retain their proper appearance from any angle. The module will also display clear images regardless of ambient light. Sharp, which will begin sample shipments in December, expects the small module to be used in mobile phones and hand-held TVs.

Li-ion batteries are now penetrating the automotive market, and this will increase at a rate largely dependent on liquid fuel prices and the cost of automotive Li-ion battery systems. As a first step in determining what is “beyond Li-ion”, we will project cell weight, volume, and cost reductions achievable through successful implementation of advanced Li-ion materials. We will then consider the potential for Li-air and Li-S chemistries to enable automotive systems that surpass advanced Li-ion-based systems.

I’m very excited to help L.A. Rose do her very first cover reveal. This is her debut novel and if the teaser and the synopsis is any indication I am dying to read the book! I apologize to her for the lateness of the post because she came to me almost two weeks ago about this reveal and then, #surprisenotsurprise I got really freaking sick and in pain and couldn’t do shit again. Sorry, L.A.! This is it, better late than… well, better late, right?
Adrian Lessons Synopsis:
The son of a model with the looks to prove it, the experienced author of her school newspaper’s sex advice column, the cocky playboy with a hint of darkness. That Adrian King.
Nope. Nuh-uh. No way.
The problem is, he’s very into her.
After accidentally flashing him, and slightly-less-accidentally-
Cleo’s determined not to end up as another notch on his bedpost. Except she hasn’t done…you know…it in a while. (Read: ever.) And as a girl who pays her tuition by writing all the sex scenes in her roommate’s bestselling romance series, the lack of inspiration has served up a fat slice of writer’s block.
Until her roommate proposes that Cleo and Adrian act out all the steamy scenes in her book.
It’s just research. No feelings involved.

Adrian Lessons’ Excerpt:
My roommate looks between us, her eyes narrowed. “You two seem to be getting along much better today.”If by “getting along” she means “staring at each other with enough sexual tension to hoist the Titanic from the bottom of the sea” then yes.
“Remember, guys,” she says, settling back with her notebook and a bowl of popcorn I didn’t know she had. “Last time was more about the romance between the characters. Their first kiss. This is purely sexual.”
At the words “purely sexual”, a shiver grips my spine. I think Adrian might be similarly affected, because he hardens all over. And I mean all over.
“Come on, then,” I muster up the courage to say, fingering the lacy edge of my panties. “Inspire me.”
He actually growls, low in his throat, and suddenly he’s on top of me, his fingers digging into the couch cushions on either side of me, his knee pressed against my bare thigh. His face is inches from mine, and a slight, dark smile curves the edges of his lips.
My lungs go on vacation.
Meet L.A. Rose:
L.A Rose is a recent college grad, a habitual beach bum, and a not-exactly-recovered romance addict. She’s also plucked up the courage to become an indie author! ADRIAN LESSONS, a New Adult contemporary romance, is her first book. If you don’t count the ones she wrote before she finally came up with something publishable. (She prefers not to.)

Who's got the button? I do. Lots and lots of them. My mom's buttons, my own, my friends mom's, buttons from garage sales, flea markets, etc. Bobbi reminded me the other day that we had made button necklaces a year or two ago. I dug out my green one and wore it on Monday and it looked so cute, I thought I'd make a couple more. They are very casual so fit with my everyday look, good over a t shirt, or sweater. Here are the latest, a purple and green with touches of yellow(it looks much more purple than showing in pic), and a second one of blues, turquoise, and orange. The green one showing is the first one I did.
I've developed my own way for attaching them to the ribbons which tie around the back of my neck. Since I string them on a fine wire, all I have to do it wrap the wire around the ribbon a couple times, and string it back through a couple buttons, then put a dab of crystal laquer on the end after cutting it as short as possible. No findings are needed, it's quick and easy. And looks good as well.

The horror scene started, not with a dark and stormy night, but with a much more respectable cliche: a power outage. That led to a god-awful smell that led to me loading Hefty bags into an SUV that led to a late-night Dumpster trip.
By the end of it all, I began to suspect myself of a heinous crime. That is, I suspected my neighbors might suspect it. I know, the whole thing sounds a little suspect. But I can explain - to you and to Your Honor.
Let the record reflect that the real culprits here are "Dateline" and "48 Hours." See, my husband and I curl up twice a week with the lights off to watch real-life murder mysteries on these programs.
They have forever changed the way I perceive things such as life insurance policies, cellphone records and surprise meals prepared by the man I married. That last one has meant that, at the girlish age of 35, I still insist we do everything "on the count of three."
Because, as these murder mysteries ingrain into our no-longer-innocent minds, everyone is a suspect. And everything is evidence. Especially if your garage smells to the nose how a James Brown-Rick James mashup sounds to the ears. Like pure, unadulterated funk. Let the record also reflect that it's always best, not to smell or hear the funk, but to feel it.
I should probably note that this all went down when my husband was out of town for a week. The second day without him, I discovered a faulty outlet in the guest bathroom where I curl my hair. Knowing other outlets exist in the house, I still used this as an excuse not to curl my hair. Instead, I made a mental note to check the fuse box and went about my day.
One day of frizz passed before I noticed the coffeemaker had also gone kaput. Two days of frizz passed when I got the first whiff of the garbage. At least, I thought it was the garbage. Cue the crashes of thunder.
Now, if this had been one of those murder mysteries, this would be the point where they'd break to a commercial. The reporter narrating the story would stamp a real sophisticated title on it, like "Guilt in the Garage," give a sneak peek of what's ahead (someone in an orange jumpsuit declaring innocence) and tell viewers in a slightly creepy tone to "stay with us." And, we always stay with them.
Hopefully, you've stayed, too, because we now return to "Guilt in the Garage."
After three unsuccessful trips to the fuse box, I gave up on that curling iron outlet. Clearly, this called for an electrician.
The next morning, I left for work with no coffee, frizzy hair and a real appreciation for the garbage collectors who were scheduled to swing by any minute.
When I returned home late that night, however, I was head-butted with a smell that could've offended the trunk of Casey Anthony's car. With an empty garbage can on the curb, it all came together.
The extra freezer in the hot garage sucked up all the energy on one side of the house, causing a power outage. The same extra freezer that stored all our chicken, pork and beef. And our wedding cake.
Nothing distracts sentimentality like the foulest of foul odors. Crying over spoiled wedding cake could wait. I still had to clean this thing. Without a hazmat suit.
Approaching the freezer warranted horror film music. Lifting the lid deserved horror film screams. There were bubbles and the sound of squish. And the smell. Dear God, the smell.
Forget the spoon, people. If you want someone to gag you, ask them for the scent of a powerless freezer full of raw meat. So much more effective.
During the cleanup, I realized my very vigilant neighbor hadn't seen my husband in a week. She was probably watching me tote five Hefty bags from the foul-smelling garage to my missing husband's SUV in the middle of the night.
I could almost hear her on the stand. "They seemed so happy."
Exhibit A would be the surveillance video from the shopping center I sped to, every window rolled down. What a dreadful sight: Braless and flip-flopped, tossing those bags with the determination of a javelin thrower. All the while rapper 2 Chainz blasts on the car radio. I would be slumped over with shame in that hypothetical courtroom, for sure.
But no murder mystery is complete without a crazy twist.
The husband came back. With a flip of a switch on the freezer, so did the curling iron outlet and the coffeemaker. The frizz might be here to stay, though. I've convinced myself that lazy looks good on me.
The real victim here was our wedding cake. We're calling it dessert slaughter in the first degree, committed by the absent-mindedness of yours truly. Because everyone is a suspect and everything is evidence.

The legislation "would create a gun violence restraining order, establishing a system where concerned family members and others notify law enforcement of someone demonstrating propensity to commit violence."
After being tipped off by a recent Washington Blade article about GOP LGBT groups’ attempts to influence the Republican Party platform at the 2012 Republican National Convention in Tampa, Fla., Family Research Council President Tony Perkins says those groups should expect a fight.
“There is no majority in America that can be built on hypocrisy and inconsistency,” former New Mexico Governor Gary Johnson said Friday at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C.
Republican presidential candidate Fred Karger has filed formal complaints with the Massachusetts Election and Tax board against fellow candidate and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney regarding his residency status. Romney, a Michigan native and successful private sector businessman, started living in Massachusetts in the 1970s, when he began attending Harvard University’s law and business schools.
Members of the media refer to him as a "stunt candidate." He didn't appear on stage in South Carolina last week for the Republican presidential debate because he failed to hit the required support threshold-- 1 percent in five national polls. He won't pull down financial backing from the conservative oil billionaire Koch brothers, nor win over the far-right readers at the RedState blog. Yet, set against the uninspiring candidacies likely to be waged by the men so far lined up to challenge Barack Obama for the White House, Fred Karger's candidacy could be the most influential, if he stays with it. A moderate conservative former Reagan aide, longtime political consultant and civil rights activist, he is also unabashedly gay-- the first ever openly gay GOP candidate for president.

Today, gays across Colorado woke up and … called in gay. They will not work, they will not shop, but instead plan to volunteer at their local soup kitchens or collect donations for food banks or signatures for a petition to repeal Proposition 8 in California.
The fallout is still coming down in a big way over California’s Proposition 8 election results. There have been largely symbolic pushbacks over the voter-approved law that strips gay couples from the right to marry each other — like last weekend’s protest in Colorado at the Century Boulder Theater. And there are larger stakes issues at play as well — like an investigation into whether the Mormon Church, which heavily funded the measure, violated state laws by failing to report campaign expenditures.

What's the Next Step After Consumers Adopt Mobile Wallets?
Fast-forward into our ideal mobile payment future. Standardized contactless terminals stand on every checkout counter, ready to transact securely with any device. However, once mobile wallets cross the adoption hurdle, they cant be content to rest. There are essential steps the technology will have to take to ensure its hard-won users dont rethink the decision to go mobile.
For better or for worse, humans want simplicity, and a single stumbling block can be enough to make us abandon a task altogether. Mobile wallets were created to simplify an already simple payment process. If, during a mobile wallet transaction, a customer finds it too complicated or time-consuming, chances are they will abandon it and move on. Eliminating or consolidating steps to streamline the payment process is likely the most important action mobile wallets can take to ensure an experience customers are eager to have routinely.
In fact, a key element in the long-term success of mobile wallets is optimizing the entire digital experience. This comprises two componentsthe ease of use of the technology itself, and the relevance of the content it delivers. Mobile devices present inherent user challenges: their screens are small and difficult to type on. To replace the ingrained action of pulling out a credit card, using a mobile wallet has to be highly intuitive. A slew of wearable innovations have taken up the challenge, from tap-to-pay watches, to suits with payment technology embedded in the cuff, to the Nod to Pay app for Google Glass.
When it comes to consumers perception of their digital experience as relevant, its been long established that personalization is key, while never crossing into creepier territory. As Leslie Berland, senior vice president of digital partnerships and development at American Express, told Wired told Wired: Our card members expect us to know where they are. A users comfort with a mobile wallet provider knowing an established level of data about his or her commerce patterns is actually what will lead that same customer to have a more positive shopping experience, one thats tailored to the individual. For example, seamlessly tying a users loyalty program account into a mobile wallet will greatly enhance the experience of using one, both in terms of convenience and added value.
Not only does the digital experience of using a mobile wallet have to be carefully constructed. The in-store experience is equally as critical. PaymentsSource Editor-in-Chief Daniel Wolfes recent essay on the perils of being a mobile wallet early adopter highlighted the necessity for stores to educate their employees on mobile procedure and define a checkout strategy that processes conventional and mobile transactions with equal speed. Once mobile-enabled retailers provide users with rapid checkouts and other mobile-only perks like digital coupons and paperless receipts, the retail experience can consider itself transformed.

A day after he announced he was going to make a film taking on the NRA with Meryl Streep, Harvey Weinstein — the producer of several violent films — told CNN’s Piers Morgan in an interview to air tonight that he has had a change of heart about violent content in film. Asked by Morgan about his hypocrisy of making these violent films, Weinstein said, “They have a point. You have to look in the mirror, too. I have to choose movies that aren’t violent or as violent as they used to be. I know for me personally, you know, I can’t continue to do that. The change starts here. It has already. For me, I can’t do it. I can’t make one movie and say this is what I want for my kids and then just go out and be a hypocrite.” He added that he would make a movie like Lone Survivor, “a tribute to the United States special forces,” but “I’m not going to make some crazy action movie just to blow up people and exploit people just for the sake of making it.” As far as Streep, he said, “people have to remember that Meryl Streep is an actress. She’s working as someone whose playing a part and all the heat should come my way.” Here’s the interview on CNN’s website in two parts (the second after the post):

Hi readers (if any) ! Just a quick post to inform you that I have been busy with real life duties so I put aside Unity development for a while. I was working on a FPS multiplayer tutorial with uLink and on some other interesting tutorials that I hope to post in the future when I am less busy. Meanwhile you can enjoy the new Unity 4.6 beta with updated GUI functionalities and get ready for the badass Unity 5 !!!
Take care and continue to write games, I am very disappointed and soon I hope to join you !!


The South Quay Plaza development on the Isle of Dogs in east London, designed by Foster + Partners for residential developer Berkeley Homes, will also feature a 36-storey tower, providing a total of 900 new homes.
Over 6,000 square metres of public space will be included, along with a variety of ground-floor shops, cafes and restaurants.
"Our plans for South Quay Plaza will deliver a world class development," said Harry Lewis, the regional managing director at Berkeley Homes.
"We will provide much needed new homes, including new affordable homes, over an acre of new and enhanced public open space, a re-activated waterfront onto South Dock and the Millwall Cutting, as well as space for retail, bars and restaurants. This is a rare opportunity to deliver such significant, high quality public realm in Canary Wharf."
The development will involve the demolition of existing buildings on the site, including a 1980s office block.
"The proposals represent the culmination of over a year of hard work by the project team, which has included four public consultation events and numerous meetings with local stakeholders," added Lewis.

We went on a walk last Sunday, along with about 130 others.
It started in the cold, grey and wet, at a time when many of us would still be, if not in bed, certainly doing nothing much more energetic than turning the pages of a Sunday paper and slurping coffee. It ended in glorious early-evening light, with a rainbow over the Serpentine and, if not actual gold at the end of the rainbow, then the next best thing – cakes and prosecco.
It started in Greenwich, where so many migrant stories have started in the past – George I prominently among them, borne to his disembarkation at the Old Royal Naval College aboard the ship Peregrine, but also, though much less regally, Ignatius Sancho, born on a slave ship and later a lobbyist for the abolition of the slave trade. It ended in Hyde Park, just short of the Albert Memorial, flamboyant statue to one of the most-loved migrants of the nineteenth century and the inspiration for the cluster of museums and institutions – Albertopolis – that now draw so many visitors to our capital.
Not all migrants migrate from east to west of the city, of course, but it’s a useful hook to hang an event of this kind on. It’s certainly a long walk, that walk from arrival to establishment, and not all migrants make it with equal success, happiness and good fortune. And it was a long walk, literally, on Sunday, a full 15 miles and counting, which not all participants made with equal success, happiness and comfort of foot. But the overwhelming majority of those who started the walk completed it, and there was a sense of euphoric satisfaction in Hyde Park at the end of the day that may have had something to do with the prosecco on offer, or possibly with the sheer relief of the walk now being at an end – but which was mostly down to the sense of fulfilment and enjoyment of a day spent in good company, learning something about the myriad migration stories that make up the history of London, and of the multiple layers that make each street and region a palimpsest of the migratory experience: whether it’s the Brick Lane Jamme Masjid mosque, in a building that had previously been a synagogue and was, before that, a Huguenot chapel; or the building in Old Jewry, now housing the visa office for the People’s Republic of China but almost eight hundred years previously the site of the first synagogue in this country; or 25 Brook Street, home to George Frideric Handel in the 1700s and the more raucous stomping ground of Jimi Hendrix in the 1960s.
Divided into groups of 10 to 15, each led by an incredibly well-versed volunteer guide and supported by one of our magnificent volunteers, we walked along the south bank of the Thames to Tower Bridge, meandered through the East End, Brick Lane and Spitalfields, wandered through empty and storm-soaked streets in the City, rising again into Clerkenwell and Holborn – passing through the world of clockmakers, jewellers, lawyers and artists, before moving westwards through Covent Garden, Soho, Kensington and Mayfair. In Postman’s Park, Bill Bingham (our very own Ian McKellen) appeared out of nowhere, surprising us with a rendition of Shakespeare’s Thomas More speech (‘Grant them removed, and grant that this your noise / Hath chid down all the majesty of England … ’), delivered (in theory) in the early 1600s to quell riotous discontent at the arrival of the Huguenots. We stopped along the way to hear the story behind particular buildings, or about individuals who had lived in that area, or whole movements of people; and in-between we talked to each other about our own stories, about plans for the Migration Museum Project, about how our country would change in the wake of the recent referendum decisions.
We liked it so much we are already planning to do it again next year – at least once more in full length, and maybe on a number of other occasions, in a shorter form. And already we’re thinking, if this works so well in London, why wouldn’t it work just as well in any number of other cities: Newcastle, Manchester, Glasgow, Liverpool, Belfast, Bristol, Leicester? Get in touch with us if you want to help us plan how to extend it.
Oh, and we raised hugely important funds for the MMP’s work, too. Our target was to raise £20,000 to enable us to continue delivering exhibitions, events and education work in schools as we build the case for a permanent Migration Museum for Britain. At the time of writing, we are still a little short of our target – the equivalent of finding ourselves in Regent Street, when we need to be in Hyde Park. If you would like to help us reach our target or destination, please go to our MyDonate page.
And, just in case you can’t quite take our word for it, have a look at what some of the walkers had to say about the experience:
Epic day with informed guides – great fun despite the rain!
What a fab day! Like walking through a spread of London’s amazing history!
A wonderful way to explore London and discover how migration is a fundamental part of the city’s identity.
Amazing experience, informative and enlightening. Highly recommend it
I enjoyed seeing so much of London in one go, and learning about all the little histories and significances that would have gone unknown otherwise.
I loved the content and it’s great to have the map as a momento. Lots of highlights that I have been boring my nearest and dearest with: Mayflower pub selling US stamps – Rotherhithe tunnel used to have shops! – De Hems pub history … and of course the wonderful performance in Postman’s Park, a speech which I didn’t know and now love.
Very interesting, and I learned lots! Like the fact that it was easier to be black than Catholic in Tudor England! It made me think about things in a totally new way – I hadn’t thought of Paul Reuter as a German immigrant to London before!
We went on a walk last Sunday. It was a huge success, raising funds and fun in equal measure. Why don’t you come on the next one we organise?
The first Imprints: London Migration Walk took place on Sunday 16 October 2016. Huge thanks to our team of volunteer guides, all of whom were mines of information, wit and inspiration – and to the volunteers who supported them. Without you, this project would be struggling! But the biggest thank you goes to the 130 participants who so good-naturedly and energetically gave up their Sunday to support us on the walk, and did so without complaint, even when the skies emptied their load on us in the early afternoon. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Here’s to the next one!

Auburn, Wash., is searching for record keepers for the city’s $15 million 457 plan, said an RFP posted on the city’s website.
The city issued an RFP in order to reduce the number of record keepers to two from five “in an attempt to reduce overall investment fees to participants, increase investment options by including a Roth post-tax option and strengthen the city’s portfolio strategy for participants,” the RFP said.
The RFP did not name the five current providers or whether they are invited to rebid.
Proposals are due at 5 p.m. PDT on June 10. A timeline for a decision was not available.
The RFP is available on the city’s website.
Rob Roscoe, the city’s director of human resources and risk management, could not be immediately reached to provide further information.
