Public Transit Part 2 - Starting Fresh
I've asked before: can we fund public transit without Tickets, Tariffs, or Taxes? The obvious follow up question is: how can we reduce the cost for public transit?
The challenge for many of the old subway systems is that the technology has changed, and they are left with an infrastructure that must be maintained. For example:
- Boston, London and Toronto (to name a few) used to use coal engines. This meant that the tracks could not be enclosed in glass because the space was needed for ventilation.
- Without enclosed tracks, you can't automate the trains with robotics for safety reasons
- The ventilation system is based on the movement of the cars. Enclose the tracks and each subway stop needs to be redesigned and equipped with new HVAC systems. Very Pricey.
Unfortunately, public transit is typically built after the need is causing pain. Municipalities start with buses until they get overloaded, then they move to trolly cars, and then finally to rapid transit.
But if you were to build a new rapid transit or public transit system in a budding city, how would you build it? Here are my suggestions:
- Developers should band together and build corridors through new developments. In the short term it could be used for public parks. When the city grows, it can be resold to the city - at a premium - to make easy access to the suburbs.
- Focus on skytrains instead of underground subways. This makes it more subject to the elements, but substantially decreases in the implementation cost
- Use smaller cars of various sizes (2 person, 4, and 6 person) that are queued at each station and can be introduced into the transit system on-demand. This requires robotics and queue planning (so that empty cars are available at source stations at all times). The result is higher variable cost, and lower fixed cost.
Any other suggestions?

As Prince George turns three on July 22, the adorable toddler is already showing a growing interest in activities outside of the playground. With a love for the outdoors and choppers, this royal tot has proven to be a little action man-in-the-making. Click through for a look at some of the future King's favorite things.
It's no surprise with his athletic parents, that George has picked up a fondness for sports. At less than two weeks old, the little Prince was gifted a miniature polo stick. George has been spotted swinging a little mallet around the grounds of his father Prince William and uncle Prince Harry’s polo matches.
William isn't the only member of the Cambridge household who has influenced George when it comes to sports. The tot has also taken after his mother on the tennis courts playing at his family’s home at Anmer Hall. Kate, an avid tennis fan, told retired British player Greg Rusedski, “[George’s] got a racket and he enjoys playing tennis.”

While his family's history dates way back, George has an interest in figures from millions of years ago: dinos. The Duchess of Cambridge told attendees at an Art Fund gala held in London's Natural History Museum that her son is a regular visitor of the dinosaur exhibition, which includes a vast diplodocus skeleton cast known as Dippy. A guest revealed, “The Duchess says George comes here a lot.”

Like father, like son. Prince George shares a love for aircrafts like his dad Prince William, who served as a search and rescue helicopter pilot. The little royal was in his element visiting the Royal International Air Tattoo in 2016 with his parents, where he hopped in and out of planes and helicopter cockpits. During the outing the two-year-old asked his mom, "Mummy, can I fly the Red Arrow now?" to which William gently replied "Not right now."

Just because he's a future King, doesn't mean George has a problem getting down and dirty when it comes to playtime. In fact the apple doesn’t fall too far from the tree with the little Prince sharing a love for nature like his grandfather,

A Year and Change (Film)
A Year and Change is an independent film shot in Baltimore, MD in December 2013. My role was as an art department intern working under production designer Nathan W. Bailey. My largest contribution to the film was creating the logo for the main character's fictional vending machine company--a logo that appears many times throughout the course of the film. I developed many different sample logos using vending machine rings as the inspiration.

Avapritinib is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor that targets PDGFRA and PDGFRA D842 mutants as well as multiple KIT exon 11, 11/17 and 17 mutants with half maximal inhibitory concentrations (IC50s) less than 25 nM. Certain mutations in PDGFRA and KIT can result in the autophosphorylation and constitutive activation of these receptors which can contribute to tumor cell proliferation. Other potential targets for avapritinib include wild type KIT, PDGFRB, and CSFR1.
Olaratumab is a human IgG1 antibody that binds platelet-derived growth factor receptor alpha (PDGFR-alpha). PDGFR-alpha is a receptor tyrosine kinase expressed on cells of mesenchymal origin. Signaling through this receptor plays a role in cell growth, chemotaxis, and mesenchymal stem cell differentiation. The receptor has also been detected on some tumor and stromal cells, including sarcomas, where signaling can contribute to cancer cell proliferation, metastasis, and maintenance of the tumor microenvironment. The interaction between olaratumab and PDGFR-alpha prevents binding of the receptor by the PDGF-AA and -BB ligands as well as PDGF-AA, -BB, and -CC-induced receptor activation and downstream PDGFR-alpha pathway signaling. Olaratumab exhibits in vitro and in vivo anti-tumor activity against selected sarcoma cell lines and disrupted the PDGFR-alpha signaling pathway in in vivo tumor implant models.
Pazopanib is a multi-tyrosine kinase inhibitor of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR)-1, VEGFR-2, VEGFR-3, platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR)-α and -β, fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR)-1 and -3, cytokine receptor (Kit), interleukin-2 receptor-inducible T-cell kinase (Itk), leukocyte-specific protein tyrosine kinase (Lck), and transmembrane glycoprotein receptor tyrosine kinase (c-Fms). In vitro, pazopanib inhibited ligand-induced autophosphorylation of VEGFR-2, Kit, and PDGFR-β receptors. In vivo, pazopanib inhibited VEGF-induced VEGFR-2 phosphorylation in mouse lungs, angiogenesis in a mouse model, and the growth of some human tumor xenografts in mice.
An indole and pyrrole derivative that inhibits VEGFR-2 and PDGFR BETA RECEPTOR TYROSINE KINASES. It is used as an antineoplastic agent for the treatment of GASTROINTESTINAL STROMAL TUMORS, and for treatment of advanced or metastatic RENAL CELL CARCINOMA.
Ceritinib is a kinase inhibitor. Targets of ceritinib inhibition identified in either biochemical or cellular assays at clinically relevant concentrations include ALK, insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-1R), insulin receptor (InsR), and ROS1. Among these, ceritinib is most active against ALK. Ceritinib inhibited autophosphorylation of ALK, ALK-mediated phosphorylation of the downstream signaling protein STAT3, and proliferation of ALK-dependent cancer cells in in vitro and in vivo assays.
A pyrimidine and thiazole derived ANTINEOPLASTIC AGENT and PROTEIN KINASE INHIBITOR of BCR-ABL KINASE. It is used in the treatment of patients with CHRONIC MYELOID LEUKEMIA who are resistant or intolerant to IMATINIB.
A tyrosine kinase inhibitor and ANTINEOPLASTIC AGENT that inhibits the BCR-ABL kinase created by chromosome rearrangements in CHRONIC MYELOID LEUKEMIA and ACUTE LYMPHOBLASTIC LEUKEMIA, as well as PDG-derived tyrosine kinases that are overexpressed in gastrointestinal stromal tumors.
Midostaurin is a small molecule that inhibits multiple receptor tyrosine kinases. In vitro biochemical or cellular assays have shown that midostaurin or its major human active metabolites CGP62221 and CGP52421 inhibit the activity of wild type FLT3, FLT3 mutant kinases (ITD and TKD), KIT (wild type and D816V mutant), PDGFR-alfa/beta, VEGFR2, as well as members of the serine/threonine kinase PKC (protein kinase C) family. Midostaurin demonstrated the ability to inhibit FLT3 receptor signaling and cell proliferation, and it induced apoptosis in leukemic cells expressing ITD and TKD mutant FLT3 receptors or overexpressing wild type FLT3 and PDGF receptors. Midostaurin also demonstrated the ability to inhibit KIT signaling, cell proliferation and histamine release and induce apoptosis in mast cells.
Nilotinib is an inhibitor of the BCR-ABL kinase. Nilotinib binds to and stabilizes the inactive conformation of the kinase domain of ABL protein. In vitro, nilotinib inhibited BCR-ABL mediated proliferation of murine leukemic cell lines and human cell lines derived from patients with Ph+ CML. Under the conditions of the assays, nilotinib was able to overcome imatinib resistance resulting from BCR-ABL kinase mutations, in 32 out of 33 mutations tested. In vivo, nilotinib reduced the tumor size in a murine BCR-ABL xenograft model.
Sorafenib is a kinase inhibitor that decreases tumor cell proliferation in vitro. Sorafenib was shown to inhibit multiple intracellular (c-CRAF, BRAF and mutant BRAF) and cell surface kinases (KIT, FLT-3, RET, RET/PTC, VEGFR-1, VEGFR-2, VEGFR-3, and PDGFR-beta). Several of these kinases are thought to be involved in tumor cell signaling, angiogenesis and apoptosis. Sorafenib inhibited tumor growth of HCC, RCC, and DTC human tumor xenografts in immunocompromised mice. Reductions in tumor angiogenesis were seen in models of HCC and RCC upon sorafenib treatment, and increases in tumor apoptosis were observed in models of hepatocellular carcinoma, renal cell carcinoma, and differentiated thyroid carcinoma.
In vitro studies have shown that vandetanib inhibits the tyrosine kinase activity of the EGFR and VEGFR families, RET, BRK, TIE2, and members of the EPH receptor and Src kinase families. These receptor tyrosine kinases are involved in both normal cellular function and pathologic processes such as oncogenesis, metastasis, tumor angiogenesis, and maintenance of the tumor microenvironment. In addition, the N-desmethyl metabolite of the drug, representing 7 to 17.1% of vandetanib exposure, has similar inhibitory activity to the parent compound for VEGF receptors (KDR and Flt-1) and EGFR. In vitro, vandetanib inhibited epidermal growth factor (EGF)-stimulated receptor tyrosine kinase phosphorylation in tumor cells and endothelial cells and VEGF-stimulated tyrosine kinase phosphorylation in endothelial cells. In vivo, vandetanib administration reduced tumor cell-induced angiogenesis, tumor vessel permeability, and inhibited tumor growth and metastasis in mouse models of cancer.

We attack the challenging problem of designing a scheduling policy for end-to-end deadline-constrained traffic with reliability requirements in a multihop network. It is well known that the end-to-end delay performance for a multihop flow has a complex dependence on the high-order statistics of the arrival process and the algorithm itself. Thus, neither the earlier optimization-based approaches that aim to meet the long-term throughput demands nor the solutions that focus on a similar problem for single-hop flows directly apply. Moreover, a dynamic programming-based approach becomes intractable for such multi-timescale quality-of-service (QoS)-constrained traffic in a multihop environment. This motivates us in this paper to develop a useful architecture that enables us to exploit the degree of freedom in choosing appropriate service discipline. Based on the new architecture, we propose three different approaches, each leading to an original algorithm. We study the performance of these algorithms in different scenarios to show both optimality characteristics and to demonstrate the favorable service discipline characteristics they possess. We provide extensive numerical results to compare the performance of all of these solutions to throughput-optimal back-pressure-type schedulers and to longest waiting-time-based schedulers that have provably optimal asymptotic performance characteristics. Our results reveal that the dynamic choice of service discipline of our proposed solutions yields substantial performance improvements compared to both of these types of traditional solutions under nonasymptotic conditions.

No longer much less than 13 people delight in been killed in southern California on Tuesday when a tractor-trailer slammed into an SUV carrying 25 passengers, officers stated.
The crash came about within the early morning within the dusty farming neighborhood of Holtville, terminate to the US-Mexico border.
These killed, who included the motive force of the SUV, ranged in age from 15 to 53, and minors as younger as 16 delight in been injured, stated Omar Watson, chief of the motorway patrol’s border division. He stated the motive force turned into as soon as 22 years faded.
Watson stated several of the occupants delight in been ejected from the auto and died on the scene; others died inside the SUV, a Ford Expedition designed to remove five to eight people.
Health center officers had beforehand stated that 27 people delight in been within the SUV, and that 15 had died, nonetheless Watson stated there delight in been 25 passengers and 13 fatalities.
Authorities on Wednesday delight in been investigating whether or no longer human smuggling turned into as soon as fascinated by the early-morning collision.
Seats of the 1997 Ford Expedition automobile delight in been removed excluding for the motive force and suitable entrance passenger’s, stated Omar Watson, chief of the California Toll road Patrol’s border division.
The reason for the collision turned into as soon as undetermined, authorities stated, and it also turned into as soon as unknown why so many people delight in been in a automobile constructed to remove eight people safely.
However smugglers delight in been identified to pack people in extraordinarily unsafe stipulations to maximise earnings.
Seven victims delight in been brought to El Centro Regional scientific center and three delight in been flown to other hospitals within the home. One individual died on the scientific institution, stated Judy Cruz, director of El Centro Regional scientific center’s emergency room.
“Unfortunately, consular workers delight in confirmed the death of 10 Mexicans up to now,” stated Roberto Velasco, the foreign ministry’s director for North The US, in a tweet.
Jake Sanchez, a California motorway patrol officer, stated the crash came about around 6am PT. The tractor-trailer struck the left aspect of the SUV, crumpling its exterior and pushing it off the avenue.
Agriculture drives the economy around Holtville and El Centro. Identified because the Imperial Valley, the home is a big producer of fruits, greens, grain and cattle despite being a wasteland, attributable to irrigation from the Colorado River and a long rising season.
By Tuesday afternoon, handmade wood crosses stretched in a line across a patch of dry grass and dirt next to the motorway, and a seat covered in what seemed to be blood lay terminate to the SUV, because the desolate motorway remained closed.
The white tractor-trailer cab turned into as soon as quiet smashed into the wrecked aspect of the maroon SUV. The full driver’s aspect of the smaller automobile turned into as soon as caved in, and the passenger aspect turned into as soon as flung wide originate.
It turned into as soon as no longer today determined how rapidly the vehicles delight in been going, or whether or no longer the SUV had noticed a live ticket sooner than heading into the intersection of order route 115 and Norrish Street suitable outside of Holtville, about 10 miles (16.1 km) north of the border, the California motorway patrol stated.
In Washington, the Nationwide Transportation Security Board stated it would study the crash in concert with the California motorway patrol. The agency’s investigator-in-value turned into as soon as anticipated to come on Wednesday, the NTSB stated.

ISLAMABAD JULY 22 (TNS): At the invitation of President Abdulla Yameen Abdul Gayoom of Maldives, Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif left for Maldives Tuesday morning on a three-day visit.
The premier will be the chief guest at the celebrations of the 52nd Independence Day of Maldives on Wednesday (tomorrow).
He will also hold official talks with the Maldivian president during his stay in the state, which is also a member of the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC).
The future of SAARC would also come up for discussion besides mutual cooperation of the two ‘brotherly countries’. A number of memoranda of understanding and agreements will be signed during the visit for cooperation in various fields.
Adviser to the Prime Minister on Foreign Affairs Sartaj Aziz is accompanying the prime minister.
The diplomatic relations with Maldives, established on July 26, 1966 had grown from strength to strength. Both the countries closely coordinate with each other at regional and international forums on issues of mutual importance. The Pakistan-Maldives relationships are marked by close and warm sentiments between people of the two countries,” the Foreign Office said.
“The visit of the prime minister will provide impetus to further strengthening our bilateral relations with the Maldives in all areas, including politics, trade, economy, defense, tourism, education and people to people contacts.”

Almost 20 years after leaving the supernatural world behind, Sarah Michelle Gellar is returning to the genre that made her a pop culture icon.
What attracted her to the project was a combination of things, including making her fans excited about her role, Gellar told TODAY over the phone while talking about her work with This Is About Humanity.
While discussing her work with one of her favorite charities, This Is About Humanity, ahead of their big Aug. 27 gala in Los Angeles, Gellar reflected on the time she took a step back from her career to process the death of Williams.

Tom Lenk is widely loved by Buffy fans for his role as Andrew, which expanded from a fun side character into something far more integral as each season progressed. But there’s so much more to his career beyond Sunnydale.
Digital Spy caught up with Tom to discuss Buffy and his wider career highlights, including a brand new play called Lottie Plachett Took a Hatchet that’s currently part of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe programme.
The Buffy the Vampire Slayer Reboot first announced in 2018, to be written by Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. alum, Monica Owusu-Breen and executive produced by Joss…
Drew Goddard’s 2011 horror/comedy “The Cabin in the Woods” is a fun, self-aware deconstruction of cabin-in-the-woods horror movies, a subgenre that has been lampooned more often than it has been presented earnestly. The film has an incredibly elaborate setup: A group of college kids is preparing for a vacation in the titular cabin. Each one of the kids fulfils a notable cinematic/literary archetype: The athlete, the fool, the scholar, etc, though they’re not full-on cliches, at least not yet. While they pack their bags and hit the road, the college kids are being secretly watched by a group of white-collar lab workers who have been covertly feeding them drugs and manipulating their behavior and their personality traits.
Humanity loves a champion. Angel is the champion of the people in Hollywood and he fights to save humanity from the monsters that lurk in the darkness. He bumps back the things that go bump in the night. Although the Angel we know and love in this alternate world is different. He still fights the fight and runs Angel Investigations, but why he does it is still a mystery.
The Vampire Slayer made Willow Rosenberg the titular undead hunter, but recent developments hint that Buffy will get her title back soon.
You may know Tom Lenk as Andrew, one of the trio in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, or you may know him from his social media skits – some with celebrity guests in them (we speak to him about his Teen Witch sketch later on). Perhaps you know him from his comedy plays like Tilda Switon Answers An Ad On Craigslist, the hilarious story of a modern day Mary Poppins who finds a depressed gay man on Craigslist and insists on dissecting his life as part of a character study for her next big movie role.

Earthworks are part of the construction of any type of ground transport infrastructure. In many road and railway infrastructures earthworks represent up to 30 to 50% of total cost of the construction. Moreover, earthworks involve the use of heavy mechanical equipment (e.g., excavators, dumper trucks, bulldozers and rollers) and repetitive activities that are responsible for large amounts of carbon emissions with negative impact to the environment. In this context, the optimization of earthworks construction activities is becoming increasingly important in recent years, while effective and practical integrated solutions have not been established so far. As such, this work introduces a novel optimization integrated system for earthwork tasks. In this integrated system, the optimization is carried out on various fronts, namely minimization of execution cost and duration, while attempting to reduce environmental impacts, such as carbon emissions. In order to achieve this, the integration of a wide array of technologies is required, so as to allow for a proper adjustment to reality. These range from evolutionary computation and data mining (i.e., soft computing), to geographic information systems and linear programming. The former are used firstly to provide realistic estimates of the productivity of available resources (i.e., equipment), and secondly to perform their optimal allocation throughout the construction site. Concurrently, the latter are employed for supporting the optimization of resource and material management, as well as of the trajectories associated with transportation of material from excavation to embankment fronts. The system has been validated using real-world data stemming from a Portuguese road construction site. Results show that the proposed system is very competitive when compared with the manual allocation methodologies currently used for the design and construction of earthworks. In fact, the system can output several different resource distribution solutions, which comprehend a trade-off between the referred optimization objectives, enhancing the flexibility of design by allowing the user to select the solution that best fits the project restrictions (e.g., deadline, budget). As such, the system is capable of allocating the available equipment in a way that maximizes its potential and productivity, while indirectly guaranteeing minimum carbon emissions in each possible solution. These results emphasize the importance of using this kind of decision support/optimization tools in the design and construction of earthworks.

Sheriff David Clarke: Grandstander first, lawman second
Is there a bigger grandstander in law enforcement than Sheriff David A. Clarke Jr.?
OK, maybe the exploits of that anti-immigration, tough guy lawman, Maricopa County, Ariz., Sheriff Joe Arpaio, beats Clarke’s latest performance. But it would be a close call.
Clarke, still smarting from having his budget cut and always loving a headline or a radio gig, tells residents in his latest radio spot, “With officers laid off and furloughed, simply calling 911 and waiting is no longer your best option. You could beg for mercy from a violent criminal, hide under the bed, or you can fight back.”
Clarke says listeners need to take a firearm course and get a weapon.
“You have a duty to protect yourself and your family. We're partners now. Can I count on you?”
Let’s hope not.
About the last thing Milwaukee County – especially the city of Milwaukee – needs is more guns on the streets. More vigilante justice.
Because, make no mistake, that’s what our sheriff is advocating. Vigilantism.
“Apparently, Sheriff David Clarke is auditioning for the next Dirty Harry movie,” said the office of Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett in a statement.
And Jeri Bonavia, executive director of Wisconsin Anti-Violence Effort, said she hears “over and over” that most law enforcement officials would like fewer weapons facing them on the streets - not more. “I do know what he’s calling for is dangerous and irresponsible and he should be out there saying this is a mistake.”
But Clarke, of course, won’t see it that way – not if he gets another headline or another few minutes spouting off on the radio talk shows. No matter how irresponsible the statement.

Community College of Vermont’s flagship Winooski academic center will be renamed the Tim Donovan Academic Center in honor of the Vermont State Colleges’ retiring chancellor and his 38 years of service to the Vermont State Colleges.
Donovan was honored in a brief ceremony on Thursday evening following a Vermont State Colleges (VSC) Board of Trustees meeting at Castleton State College yesterday. During the ceremony presidents from each of the five colleges spoke along with board members, friends, and college staff. Each took to the podium with memories of Donovan as the inspirational leader, the friend, the mentor, and the technology-advisor, but one message remained a constant in each story: Donovan’s commitment and love for the Vermont State College system.
“There’s no question you truly love the VSC,” said Gary Moore, former chairman of the VSC Board of Trustees. “Your dedication to students, is just, I don’t even know how to describe it…I’ve followed you around to all of our colleges and probably two-thirds of the CCV sites, and everytime we’re together, every time we’re on a campus, everything you talk about is what’s good for the students. That’s what makes this college system special.”
Vermont Tech President Dan Smith recalled a time immediately following Tropical Storm Irene that symbolized Donovan’s commitment to the colleges and also the reason he’s had so much success over the course of his career with the VSC. Following the storm, the VSC’s offices were flooded out, leaving the computer network for all five colleges out of commission, Smith said. With fall registration underway, Donovan, along with Smith and a small team spent a number of days knee-deep in flood-waters and mud cobbling the system back together so that students could get themselves registered for classes.
“The lesson I took away is that there’s no task that we’re too big to do…” Smith said. “You wonder how a guy builds the trust and the credibility to take on big challenges over 38 years in a system like the state colleges, it’s because he’s willing to do the favors people ask and there’s no task he’s not willing to do, and that’s a lesson I’m going to take with me for the rest of my career and the rest of my life, and I’m eternally grateful for that.”
Stories similar to Smith’s came one after another throughout the evening, as did remarks about Donovan’s impact on the Community College of Vermont. As president of CCV from 2001 to 2009, Donovan oversaw dramatic enrollment increases, the construction of CCV’s first built-to-own facility in Wilder, and the creation of the College’s study abroad program. Secretary of the Vermont Agency of Administration and the VSC’s incoming chancellor Jeb Spaulding highlighted Donovan’s achievements at CCV, stating that there is no doubt the College hit it’s stride under his leadership.
“Someday, when people look back and say ‘wow, who was it that provided the leadership to turn what was a place that was wonderful but much smaller, a place without any owned facilities, into a place that has really been an entry-point for many Vermont students into their post-secondary education plans, and a place so integral to the state’s economic development and key to its vibrancy in the future,’ they’ll say Tim Donovan,” Spaulding said.
The stories and heartfelt thanks came along with some light ribbing, a lot of laughs, and many tokens of appreciation. Red Sox novelties, a watch, a placard bearing the Donovan family crest were all given in gratitude for nearly four-decades of dedicated service to Vermont’s public college system. But it was CCV President Joyce Judy who surprised Donovan and much of the crowd on Thursday when she stood before the crowd, thanked Donovan for his service, and proceeded to read a resolution passed by the VSC that day renaming CCV’s largest academic center after him.
After a poster-board displaying a photograph of the four-story facility in downtown Winooski with mocked-up signage was unveiled, Donovan was left almost speechless. Almost, because after thanking everyone and acknowledging that the honor he had just received was beyond words, the outgoing chancellor concluded with a message similar to the one he’s been preaching since joining the VSC: it’s about the students.
“Please don’t lose site of the purposes for why these colleges exist,” he said. “They don’t exist for the purposes of the legislature. They don’t exist as employment agencies, even though we come to them from some of those perspectives. They exist to educate Vermonters and to see that this state has the benefits of an educated citizenry and an educated workforce…Please, stay focused on what’s important, and continue the hard work that you all do.”

Queer teenager pelted with tin cans and vile homophobic abuse in vicious attack
A 17-year-old in New York City was brutally attacked by three men who threw food cans at them while yelling homophobic slurs, causing them to tear their knee ligament.
According to Gay City News, the teenager was walking through Melrose Playground in the Bronx on 12 December at around 9pm when they were attacked.
A New York Police Department (NYPD) spokesperson said three men began demanding that the teenager take off their wig.
When they refused, they shouted at them: “Hey faggot, take off your f**king wig. You faggots don’t belong on this block.”
They pelted cans of food at the teen, leaving them with a torn ligament in their knee, after which the attackers continued to call them a “faggot”.
The NYPD is investigating the incident as a hate crime assault, but no suspects have been identified or arrested. The victim said of the three men, one was wearing a red sweatshirt and two were wearing black sweatshirts.
Victor Pichardo, New York state assembly member to the Bronx, wrote on Twitter: “This cruelty and violence shown to our Bronx LGBTQ brothers and sisters is abhorrent. Hate should have no place in the BX.”
The homophobic attack came just a couple of weeks after another New York teenager was punched in the face by a man who claimed to “hate gay people”.
The 19-year-old victim was riding on the bus in Chelsea, Manhattan, when he was confronted by an aggressive older man who started harassing him.
“You have long hair. I don’t like people like you,” the man allegedly said, with his mask lowered over his chin. He then grew explicitly homophobic, adding: “I hate gay people.”
When the teen got off the bus the man pursued him and punched him in the face, the NYPD said. Police have not identified his attacker.

BAKU, April 4. /TASS/. The situation at the line of engagement in the area of the Karabakh conflict is "still tense," head of press service at the Azerbaijani Defense Ministry Vagif Dyaryahly told TASS on Monday.
"The highest tension is at the Agdere-Terter direction, where military actions continued at night," he said. "The situation at the Fizuli-Khodzhaven direction is rather stable."
The ministry’s representative said the Armenian side continued firing at settlements close to the line of engagement.
"Azerbaijan’s Armed Forces keep control over all territories, which were recaptured during Saturday operations," he said.
On Saturday, April 2, the parties to the Karabakh conflict accused each other of violating truce along the front line. The claims came from defense authorities of Armenia and of Azerbaijan.
Neighboring Armenia and Azerbaijan fell out with each other in the late 1980s because of Nagorno-Karabakh, the disputed territory that had been part of Azerbaijan before the Soviet Union break-up but was mainly populated by Armenians.
In 1991-1994, the confrontation spilled over into large-scale military action for control over the enclave and some adjacent territories. Thousands left their homes on both sides in a conflict that killed 30,000. A truce was called between Armenia and the Nagorno-Karabakh republic on one side and Azerbaijan on the other in May 1994.
Talks on Nagorno-Karabakh have been held on the basis of the so-called Madrid Principles suggested by co-chairs of the Minsk Group of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) - Russia, France and the United States - in December 2007 in the Spanish capital. They include three key principles written in the Helsinki Final Act: refraining from the threat or use of force, territorial integrity and the right to self-determination.

"Better late than never" became the by-word of the 1941 Kiskitas staff.
It wasn't really decided to publish this book until January. Then the senior
class launched themselves into a fast and furious whirlwind of bake-sales,
valentine sales, and dances.
A large staff was chosen because of the limited time but a staff cannot do
all the work alone-nor did we. The entire senior class cooperated. This
is deeply appreciated and to them we are most grateful.
The staff worked hard, selling advertising, books, writing articles, and
putting the book together. But we enjoyed every minute of it and it is our
sincere wish that you, who have this book, may enjoy it for many years to

Ukraine: 4G subs base set to grow at 70% CAGR
January 25, 2019
Ukraine was one of the last countries in Europe to introduce 4G technology as it was rolled out only in March 2018. However, 4G coverage has since expanded and can now cover more than half of the population, according to GlobalData, a leading data and analytics company.
Sergej Gavrilov, Telecoms Market Data & Intelligence Analyst at GlobalData, comments: “As 4G is not a new technology, vendors could easily supply 4G-compatible devices to the public to help drive the adoption of the 4G LTE technology. GlobalData expects the 4G subscriber base of Ukraine to surpass the 19 million mark by 2023.”
4G was introduced late in the Ukraine as the frequencies suitable for 4G were used for alternative purposes and reallocation of frequencies required negotiations with many parties, including the military. Additionally, telecom operators faced a particularly high level of bureaucracy in order to gain permission to launch 4G services.
Gavrilov concludes: “Three major operators Kyivstar, Vodafone and Lifecell heavily invested to introduce technology to the country. By the end of August 2018; Kyivstar could cover 13 million people, Vodafone extended its reach to 18 million people and Lifecell surpassed 22 million people.”

Flamemaster Corp. in Sun Valley abandoned its interest in possibly acquiring Hydro Flame Corp. by selling most of its 8% stake in the company to A&E; Systems of Santa Ana.
Flamemaster, a maker of flame-retardant coatings and sealants, acquired its Hydro Flame stock in the fall and had said it was interested in a merger or other alliance with the Salt Lake City maker of recreational stoves and housewares. But then A&E;, which makes accessories for recreational vehicles, acquired an even bigger stake in Hydro Flame.
Flamemaster then decided "there was no point in continuing" its effort to buy Hydro Flame and decided to sell its shares to A&E;, Flamemaster President Joseph Mazin said.
He said Flamemaster sold 90,621 of its 95,381 Hydro Flame shares to A&E; for $3.31 a share, or about $300,000, which gave A&E; a controlling 52% of Hydro Flame. But Flamemaster still earned about $80,000 on its Hydro Flame stock, before taxes and other expenses, he said.

I've not updated my blog for quite a while, I have been busy with my lovely nocturnal baby boy. This poem woke me up in the middle of the night a few months ago.
Show me the God.
Show me the racist God
with his twisted smile,
That rubs his hands with glee
When you judge your fellow man as inferior.
For something as natural as skin colour,
Yet give thanks for ALL that he created in you.
Show me the sexist God,
That struts around with pride,
Every time you put that bitch in her place
Exclude her from your practices
And tell her how she must live her life in his name.
Show me the homophobic God,
That prances round with gay abandon
Every time you outcast someone for who they love.
Force them to live a lie,
Or worse, not live at all.
Show me, and I will look this phantom in your face
And say, you do not exist.
Then they won't, at least not to me.

- A Scottish scientist is to co-lead an elite project group of 22 European partners, looking to create resilient crops for the future
- Yield is projected to plummet by a third due to extremes in temperatures and greater variation in rainfall patterns impacting on soil and the type of crops which can be grown
Dr Tim George, a Rhizophere Scientist at the James Hutton Institute, based at the Invergowrie site near Dundee; is joined on the five-year, 9m euro project– called ‘Root2Res’ – by top soil scientists from the University of Dundee and 20 other organisations from across the European Union (EU) and Africa.
The project, led scientifically by the Institute and France’s ARVALIS, an agricultural research organisation dedicated to arable crops; is funded by the EU’s flagship research program, Horizon Europe. It will look to address the climate resilience of soil in combatting rising temperatures and greater variability in rainfall which in turn place stress on crops. Work will also include research into improving soil nutrient availability and cutting the greenhouse gases being emitted from soil.
The group- which meets for the first-time next month – will work with crop breeders and farmers from areas in Europe who are under the greatest pressure from climate change induced stress. Investigations will focus on a range of cereal, tuber, beans and peas commonly grown in rotations in Europe.
Dr Tim George, lead scientist on the Root2Res programme said: “There is both a soil and crop crisis developing in Europe. In 20 years’ time, we will need to have more resilient crops which can tolerate extreme temperatures, more variable rainfall and be able to grow in more marginal soil conditions. Managing the interface between the soil and the plant is where the real battle against climate change is going to play out. I am delighted to be selected to play a major role in such a vital and urgent project which is a real coup for the Institute.”

For people with disabilities, employment outcomes are discouraging. In 2021, only 19% were employed, a third of the employment rate for people without disabilities.1 Disabled individuals worked part-time because they could not find full-time work or because of a reduction in hours. 2 Fewer disabled persons had bachelor or higher degrees, and fewer worked in professional and managerial positions than people without disabilities. 3 To make it possible for disabled adults to get well-paying jobs, we must ensure that disabled youth have a solid educational foundation. That requires that more youth graduate high school; only 68.2% of students with disabilities graduated with a high school diploma in the 2018- 2019 school year, 4 compared with 85.8% of all students. 5 Further, a solid educational foundation requires that more youth graduate high school with diplomas instead of certificates of completion or other alternatives that limit career and other postsecondary options. 6 About 10% of students with disabilities served under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) graduated with a certificate other than a high school diploma.7 Finally, a solid educational foundation also requires that students with disabilities are able to access postsecondary education. Disabled adults who have attained more years of education are likelier to find work.8
Options for Youth with Disabilities: A Focus on Competitive Integrated Employment Limits,

Updated from 10:29 a.m. EDT
fell more than 20% Thursday as investors became increasingly worried about growth in the wireless telephone company's subscriber base and heightened competition, despite a smaller-than-anticipated loss in the latest quarter.
Nextel, as expected, added fewer domestic subscribers in the third quarter than analysts had initially predicted, and offered a rather vague prognosis for the rest of the year, contributing to a sell-off of its shares.
Nextel, based in Reston, Va., said it brought 540,400 new U.S. subscribers into its fold in the third quarter. At first, Nextel led analysts to expect at least an additional 550,000 subscribers, but warned earlier this month that it would miss that mark, setting off a 10% one-day drop in its stock price.
Nextel added once again to Wall Street's jitters Thursday. The company said it expected at least 500,000 new subscribers in the fourth quarter, but it did not offer a precise figure, leading analysts to believe it would fall short of estimates for the rest of the year.
Unlike Nextel, which goes after more lucrative corporate customers and thus seems less concerned about the sheer number of its subscribers, Wall Street was fixated on the customer base. Nextel's shares dropped sharply Thursday, down $7.31 to $28.81, after hitting a 52-week low of $27.63. The stock is down more than 65% from its 52-week high of $82.94, reached in March.
The issue of new subscribers overshadowed Nextel's accomplishment. It said its net loss narrowed to $236 million, or 31 cents a diluted share, from $361 million, or 55 cents a share, a year earlier. Analysts polled by research firm
First Call/Thomson Financial
had forecast a loss of 37 cents a share.
Nextel also said that its revenue climbed 59%, to $1.4 billion, in the third quarter ending Sept. 30.
The mixed third-quarter results prompted one brokerage firm,
First Union Securities
, to downgrade Nextel shares on Thursday to buy from strong buy. Yet Charles Disanza of
Gerard Klauer Mattison
, said he remains bullish, commending the company for its focus on the quality, not the quantity, of its customers in a bid to increase its cash flow.
Nextel's operating cash flow more than doubled in the third quarter, climbing to $359 million, according to the company. Nextel has said it seeks to strike a balance between reeling in new subscribers and stimulating cash flow.
"Investors get carried away with the subscriber metric," said Disanza, whose firm has done underwriting for Nextel and rates its stock a buy. "They're not going for customer count. The thrust is that they're marching toward the best customer. They're marching toward profitability."
The market's reaction also is linked to fears over increased competition for coveted business customers. Nextel acknowledged Thursday that it is aware of fiercer price battles on the horizon, but argued that is largely insulated from the climate because of its focus on high-spending corporations.
"If you take a look around, you see aggressive pricing and promotion in the marketplace," Tim Donahue, Nextel's chief executive, said in a conference call. "We are starting to feel some pressure as carriers target our business customers."
First Union Securities said in a research report issued Thursday that some larger national companies are "going after Nextel's unique market niche," shifting their cross hairs to
, the company's digital two-way radio service.
"While we respect the fact that Nextel has chosen not to price irrationally to meet some of these offerings," the report read, "the concern remains that it may lose some market share" in the fourth quarter.
Competition was certainly was a factor for
, another provider of wireless service, which said last month that it, too, would fall short of growth projections for its subscriber base.
Sprint PCS had said it expected to add 800,000 wireless subscribers, about 100,000 shy of analysts' estimates. The Sprint group later delivered a better number this month, saying it had attracted 839,000 new subscribers in the third quarter, but still failed to reach the original goal.
Despite the shortfall, Nextel noted in a statement Thursday that its monthly cash flow per domestic subscriber is about $22, "among the highest in the industry." Nextel said it now has a total of 6.2 million domestic subscribers.
Corporate accounts made up about 20% of Nextel's new subscriber additions in the latest quarter, an auspicious sign in part because business customers are less likely than individuals to cancel their service or be disconnected, the company noted. Nextel's "churn," or turnover, rate was only 2% in the third quarter.
The sobering messages this fall from Nextel and Sprint PCS appear to suggest that growth is leveling off, but Nextel's Donahue sought to reassure skeptics that prospects for Nextel, along with the industry as a whole, are brighter than some seem to think.
"I think it's clear to all us that the wireless industry is on a pace to add record numbers of new customers this year," he said in a conference call with analysts. "Our customers are just really beginning to understand the utility and the value of the newly introduced wireless Internet services."

So long, Mr. Rogers
It's a sad day in the neighborhood. Longtime children's TV host Fred Rogers plans to introduce his last new neighbor next year, his production company announced Saturday.
The 71-year-old host and creator of "Mister Rogers' Neighborhood" will shoot the final episode of the show in 2001, but he won't be hanging up his cardigan just yet.
After 50 years in television and 33 years as the show's host, Rogers is turning his attention to his Web sites, publications and special museum programs. And he'll still provide gentle advice in reruns.
The show has gained a wide audience among children and parents who appreciate its simple lessons and Rogers' soothing manner. Rogers has taught children how to share, how to deal with anger and even how not to fear the bathtub by assuring them they'll never go down the drain.
How the Grinch stole $20M
Most people would say Jim Carrey has it made: He makes $20 million a movie, he gets to be a Dr. Seuss character for Christmas, and he got the girl Renee Zellweger.
But the comic actor tells Details magazine that making obscene amounts of cash isn't all it's cracked up to be. "With me," Carrey said, "it's just numbers on a page. I don't exist in that world. All I need is three meals a day, a comfortable place to live and my car."
Not surprisingly, Carrey doesn't get much sympathy for the dire predicament he's in.
"At this point, nobody gives a damn what my problem is," he says. "I could literally have a tumor on the side of my head and they'd be like, 'Yeah, big deal, I'd eat a tumor every morning for the kinda money you're pulling down."'
Fighting racism on screen
Cuba Gooding Jr. says that while most current movies resort to violence when dealing with racism, his new film bucks the trend.
"This is one of the few scripts I've read in which a black man faced racial aggression and opposition, and rose above it ... And didn't have to kill somebody to do it," said Gooding, whose movie "Men of Honor" opened this past week.
Gooding, who won an Oscar in 1997 for his work on "Jerry Maguire," plays a diver who was the first black man to become a master chief, the Navy's highest enlisted rank.
He said he's proud that the film doesn't soft-pedal the racial animosity that existed in the Navy during the late 1950s or sensationalize his character. "I didn't want to play (him) in this movie as an angry man," Gooding told the Los Angeles Times.
A parade for Tom
It was confetti and Times Square crowds last New Year's Day for Tom Brokaw. For 2001, he'll see roses aplenty. The NBC anchorman was announced Friday as grand marshal of the 112th Rose Parade, part of the Tournament of Roses festivities Jan. 1 highlighted by college football's Rose Bowl.
Brokaw won acclaim for his book "The Greatest Generation," which told the story of Americans who were born in the 1920s, grew up in the Depression and fought World War II.
The battle for Groucho
Forget "A Day at the Races" and "A Night At the Opera." Groucho Marx has become the central character in a new production: A Fight at the Courthouse.
In a legal battle over two anthologies about the late comedian, Robert Bader, author of "Groucho Marx and Other Short Stories and Tall Tales," has filed a federal lawsuit accusing another writer of plagiarism.
The defendants are Random House Inc. and author Stefan Kanfer, who created "The Essential Groucho, Writings by and for Groucho Marx."
In the suit, Bader said Kanfer's book copies passages "virtually verbatim" from his book, which was published in 1993 as an anthology of Marx's best short comic pieces over a 50-year period.
Bader said he notified Random House and asked that distribution of Kanfer's book be stopped but that the publisher ignored him.

Everyday plastics may affect many major organs in babies and young children, posing a wide variety of serious health risks as they develop, according to a new report that reviewed 120 recent studies.
Evidence shows potential links between babies’ exposure to plastics and their risk for developing cancer, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and other conditions that may arise when the endocrine system is disrupted, according to the report, which was published this month by the environmental group EARTHDAY.ORG.
Microplastics – bits of plastics smaller than 5 millimeters (microplastics) – have also been found in the human placenta, disrupting communication between a fetus and the mother’s body.
“This isn’t just a simple issue,” said Tom Cosgrove, Chief Creative and Content Officer at EARTHDAY.ORG. “It’s big, the impacts are really broad, and it’s going to take a serious global commitment to get us through this and figure out how we can get to the other side.”
The report was published ahead of a meeting of delegates from 150 countries in Nairobi, Kenya, which discussed details of a Global Plastics Treaty to curb plastic waste. The deliberations, which concluded on November 19, reportedly made little progress towards finalizing the treaty. While the oil and gas industry advocated for recycling and waste management to control plastic pollution, critics say the treaty must curtail the amount of plastic produced in the first place.

TERMINATOR HK- SERIES 200 MODEL 15W TYPE 200
SKYNET began its first anthropomorphic HK designs with the T200, but the initial trials with this model proved disastrous. A quick design, intended to (very) roughly imitate humanoid abilities and to provide a stop-gap measure of defending SKYNET facilities until production could be brought up to full capacity for larger, much more powerful units that were in the production files.
Under-developed production facilities meant poor quality T200 series HK units. In addition, the surviving stocks of high energy (phased plasma) small arms were rapidly diminishing as Resistance units organized and raided military bases and armories, liberating the powerful energy weapons for use against SKYNET. SKYNET was forced to arm what T200s it could with the remaining GE plasma rifles and the rest with standard, outdated kinetic energy based ballistic slug throwers, mostly M16A5 assault rifles, a limited number of Mossberg military shotguns and 9mm Beretta automatic pistols (some observed being used in a dual manner).
Slow, unbalanced, under-powered, and easily defeated. The T200 soon came to be known to the Resistance as a "Stickman" or "Tin-man" due to its narrow, inhuman shape and large sensor array atop the shoulders. Armor was light on such a narrow frame given the limit of the available power sources and redundant systems were almost non-existent ensuring that any critical damage would cause the complete combat loss of the unit. The unit was a quick and cheap stop-gap measure, a model designed to provide SKYNET time to implement more efficient designs. Hyperalloy materials were just being developed by SKYNET so the T200 was armored with more primitive ceramic and composite materials as well as crude ballistic cloth, giving a tattered, ragged look to the unit which generated an additional name from some of the Resistance units; "Scarecrow."
A good hit from large caliber, small arms fire (in excess of 5.56mm standard NATO specification) could cripple or destroy a T200 unit. The sensor array was particularly vulnerable and Resistance units quickly discovered this weakness, using a variety of close combat melee and long ranged sniper based attacks aimed directly at the delicate sensor array. T200 units which had their sensor array damaged or destroyed either shut down and stood in place, or short circuited and walked around, bumping into buildings, debris, etc. until the Resistance destroyed the unit or the fourteen day capacity high endurance power cell was depleted. Resistance units were recorded as actively forming hunting groups to venture out from the ruins, to hunt T200 units in order to steal weapons and ammunition, even the crude armor. The T200s proved to be such easy kills that Resistance snipers in skyscrapers could destroy a patrolling T200 and in a matter of less than ten minutes, street scavengers would have picked the unit clean of any usable parts and equipment.
In all, 14,200 T200 units were
produced and deployed in the West and
By 2017, a new version of the T200 had been produced from the old templates. Used only within SKYNET's huge manufacturing facilities and installations, the T202 handled delicate repair and maintenance work and had all combat capacity stripped from its programming. T202 units approximated technicians and mechanics, becoming the hands and eyes of SKYNET on the assembly lines, production units, as well as in doing maintenance and repairs to vital legacy systems where a technician approximating human height was required to operate. Some T202 units were mounted on special wheeled chassis, while others had a simple dual polymer tread assembly, each replacing the two anthropomorphic leg units completely. The T202 was joined by an upgraded model in 2018, the T204, which had better mobility, more advanced firmware and four highly manipulative arms arranged in a radial pattern around the main torso. Each arm ended in a micromanipulator capable of precision work throughout the full movement range and each arm had its own dedicated CPU giving the arm far more autonomous capacity in its duties.
