Dame Gillian Lynne, who has died aged 92, was a figure of extraordinary versatility and longevity in the dance world, the choreographer of such world-renowned musicals as Cats and The Phantom of the Opera, the creator of scores of stage shows and television dance films, and also a former Royal Ballet ballerina, musical theatre star, and a Hollywood co-star – and lover – of Errol Flynn.
Even as she approached 90, she kept a working pace of ferocious energy, recreating a lost 1940s classical ballet for Birmingham Royal Ballet and co-directing a large new production of Cats in the West End in 2014. She told an interviewer: “It’s only because I’ve been so busy I’ve not had time to die.” Her CV of shows, roles and awards ran to 10 pages.
Two weeks ago she became the first non-royal woman to have her name on a West End theatre, when the composer of Cats, Lord Lloyd-Webber, renamed the New London Theatre, Drury Lane – the venue for the show’s record-breaking 21-year run – the Gillian Lynne Theatre. Dame Gillian was borne onstage in a golden throne by four bare-chested men, bedecked with pink ostrich feathers.
With her long slim limbs, frequently displayed to great advantage in short dresses and leotards even in her eighties, Gillian Lynne insisted that her arrestingly youthful looks were the result of being married to a man 24 years younger than her. For her Desert Island Discs luxury she chose eyelash curlers.
Gillian Lynne crossed every borderline in dance, choreographing straight ballets for Western Theatre Ballet, Birmingham Royal Ballet and Northern Ballet, creating new television ballet dramas and enjoyed being known in the dance business as the “queen of sexy”.
“I remember saying to the cast of Cats that we wanted it to be the sexiest show ever,” she recalled. “I told them that our aim was to make people jump up from their seats, rush home and leap into bed to make love.”
Yet she also regularly created the dances for the Royal Opera and English National Opera – for Wagner’s Flying Dutchman and Parsifal, Tippett’s Midsummer Marriage and Berlioz’s The Trojans, as well as for popular films such as Wonderful Life, Half a Sixpence, Yentl and Man of La Mancha.
Despite two hip replacements (she shared a surgeon with the Queen Mother), she remained able to tuck her feet behind her ears at 88, and produced a fitness DVD to prove it. “Retirement’s the biggest mistake you can make,” she said.
Born Gillian Barbara Pyrke on February 20 1926, the only child of Barbara and Leslie Pyrke, a Bromley house furnisher, she lost her mother in an early tragedy that she said drove her achievements throughout her life. In 1939 her mother and three friends went on a shopping trip and were all killed in a car crash, leaving four families motherless.
The young Gillian had been encouraged in dancing by her mother, but the accident, and wartime evacuation, interrupted her progress. When her father joined the Army she was evacuated to Somerset, but ran away. Her mother’s sister became her guardian back in south London and helped her win a place at the Cone Ripman dance school.
As a teenager she began performing with Molly Lake’s Ballet Guild, and in 1944 danced the leading role in Swan Lake at a gala for the Daily Telegraph’s then ballet critic A V Coton. For the programme, Molly Lake changed the girl’s name to Gillian Lynne.
One of the guests was the founder of Sadler’s Wells Ballet, Ninette de Valois, who invited Gillian to join the company. During her seven years with the Sadler’s Wells Ballet Gillian collected a quiverful of new leading roles.
The American choreographer George Balanchine picked her to double Beryl Grey’s role in Ballet Imperial, and Frederick Ashton cast her, aged 20, in the second night of his 1946 masterpiece Symphonic Variations.
She was frequently cast in dramatic roles such as Myrta, the queen of the supernatural Wilis in Giselle and the Black Queen in de Valois’s Checkmate, and she featured prominently in Robert Helpmann’s ballets Adam Zero and Miracle in the Gorbals.
She was also a soloist in the historic Sadler’s Wells Ballet performances of The Sleeping Beauty that reopened the Royal Opera House in 1946, and at the company’s celebrated New York debut in 1949.
On the Sadler’s Wells Ballet’s second US tour in 1951 Gillian Lynne went to see the new Broadway production of South Pacific, which “changed my life”. Within two years, aware that she was likely to remain a secondary soloist in classical ballet, she took up the London Palladium’s offer to become its resident star ballerina, performing alongside such household names as Vera Lynn, Terry-Thomas, George Formby and the Billy Cotton Band.
Her salary jumped from £15 to £40 a week, and she turned down de Valois’s request that she return to the ballet: “I had smelled another world, one that I knew I could conquer.” Spotted by a Hollywood scout at the Palladium, in 1952 she was hired by Warner Brothers to play the sultry gipsy dancer Marianna in Errol Flynn’s The Master of Ballantrae, and the two had a brief affair.
In a characteristically unlikely sequence of events, she returned to Covent Garden to dance in the Royal Opera’s Tannhaüser and Aida, then starred in Goody Two Shoes in Windsor and Puss in Boots at Coventry’s Empire, supported by Morecambe and Wise and Harry Secombe.
Soon after, she landed the first of many jobs dancing in BBC television productions, then performed live: she performed the Dance of the Seven Veils in Salome, played Puck in A Midsummer Night’s Dream, and narrated and mimed all nine characters in a 1959 live filming of Prokofiev’s Peter and the Wolf, with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. To train for the last, the BBC sent her to Jacques Lecoq’s renowned mime school in France, an experience that she later drew on for Cats.
Gillian Lynne’s first choreography was also for television, Western Theatre Ballet’s jazz-ballet The Owl and the Pussycat, composed by Dudley Moore. Moore next collaborated with her on her first original stage work, an innovative revue of jazz, ballet and words, Collages, for the 1963 Edinburgh Festival, which was so successful that it transferred to the Savoy in London.
In 1973 she and Moore accepted a BBC Two challenge to create a Saturday night live television Soccer Ballet, as a rival attraction for viewers of Match of the Day.
She directed award-winning dance sequences for episodes of The Muppet Show in the late 1970s, and in 1987 created a celebrated BBC television dance film about the life of L S Lowry, A Simple Man, which she adapted for Northern Ballet Theatre to perform in theatres. She also choreographed for her great friend, the skater John Curry, when he essayed a move from ice to the boards in 1978.
However, it was her creation of Cats with Andrew Lloyd Webber and Trevor Nunn in 1981 that was Gillian Lynne’s passport to world celebrity. An acrobatic “dance-ical” in cat costumes making a sexy semi-pantomime from T S Eliot’s poems was hardly expected to be a world smash, but it ran for 18 years on Broadway and 21 in the West End.
Gillian Lynne would stage dozens of productions around the world till the end of her life, including a new West End staging in 2014-16.
The record-breaking popularity and longevity of Cats were overtaken in 1986 by the next Lloyd Webber musical with Gillian Lynne as musical stager and choreographer, Phantom of the Opera, directed by Hal Prince.
Gillian Lynne used her backstage knowledge of the Royal Opera House to bring atmospheric veracity to the Paris Opera of the story, and it became the most financially successful musical ever created, winning Best Musical at both Britain’s 1986 Olivier Awards and New York’s 1988 Tony Awards.
It is still playing in New York, by a long margin the longest-running Broadway show in history. Aspects of Love, Lloyd Webber’s 1989 musical, which once again Trevor Nunn directed and Gillian Lynne choreographed, was less successful. It closed on Broadway after less than a year, losing $8 million, and was described in The New York Times as “perhaps the greatest flop in Broadway history”.
Gillian Lynne directed or choreographed more than 50 shows, including the RSC’s The Comedy of Errors and The Boy Friend (both directed by Nunn), and on Broadway and in the West End Roar of the Greasepaint, Pickwick, My Fair Lady and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.
She created several original shows for the London Palladium, including Queen of the Cats and Hans Andersen. Among opera productions she directed and choreographed for the Royal Opera and English National Opera were Bluebeard, Parsifal and The Trojans.
As a ballet choreographer she became associated with Northern Ballet Theatre, after the star of A Simple Man, Christopher Gable, became artistic director at the Leeds company. But her later works for the company, Lippizaner and The Brontës, were less successful than the Lowry ballet.
She was a tireless advocate for popular music and jazz dance, and made acclaimed television dance films on the Beatles (The Fool on the Hill for Australian TV) and on Burt Bacharach and Hal David (The Look of Love for the BBC).
She enthusiastically joined Twitter when she was 85, but remained strongly sceptical of other modern developments in the dance profession, believing that an old-fashioned work ethic was what trained the best.
Among Gillian Lynne’s many honours were Olivier Awards for the RSC’s The Comedy of Errors (1977) and lifetime achievement (2013), a Bafta for A Simple Man (1987), and the Samuel G Engel TV Award for her BBC drama Le Morte d’Arthur (1985).
In 1997 she was appointed CBE and in 2014 DBE, for services to dance and musical theatre. She published her autobiography, A Dancer in Wartime, in 2011, and was elected vice-president of the Royal Academy of Dance in 2012, receiving its top honour, the Queen Elizabeth II Coronation Award.
Gillian Lynne’s first marriage to the barrister Patrick St John back in 1948 did not survive her affair with Errol Flynn. In 1980, during auditions for My Fair Lady, which she was directing, a 27-year-old actor, Peter Land, auditioned for the juvenile lead, Freddy Eysnford-Hill.
“He was standing there at the bar, and he was drop-dead gorgeous. We just looked at each other,” she recalled. He was exactly half her age when they married in 1980.
Peter Land survives her. There were no children.
Dame Gillian Lynne, born February 20 1926, died July 1 2018


LANTA Gets $4 Million For Easton Intermodal Unit
Transportation authority funding will help Easton construct bus terminal/parking deck on Third Street.
The Lehigh and Northampton Transportation Authority has given $4 million to Easton's Intermodal project, the Express-Times reports.
The newspaper says LANTA got the money through Federal Transportation Administration funding. The news comes a few weeks after the city finalized a $4.4 million loan from Merchant's Bank.
When completed, the intermodal unit -- on South Third Street -- will house a new bus terminal, parking deck, restaurants and office space, and a High School Sports Hall of Fame.
The intermodal will built on the land currently occupied by the vacant Marquis Theater and Perkins, which are expected to be demolished by the end of the month.

The Interstate Highway System is an amazing thing! Of course, it takes a 9 hour drive on a road other than the Interstate to really drive that fact home.
Today we gave in and pulled up stakes, one day early, and started the 23+ hour trip home. We have allotted three days (well, two and a half) to get home, but we’ll see. The trip today started going back where we came from on Highway 199, with all the tight turns and incline changes that it entails. It was everything I remembered from a few days earlier!!! I again judiciously utilized the turnouts. It took us about 2 hours and 15 minutes to travel the 85 miles from Crescent City to Grants Pass. We figured that would be the worst conditions of the trip! Well, we hoped…
In order to get to Interstate 80, we had to travel across eastern Oregon on state highways, or we could go all the way down to Reno via the Interstate. Being efficiency conscious, I opted to go east in Oregon rather than add many miles to the trip and have to drive through Reno.
We got about 20 miles on Interstate 5 to Medford before we were directed by our map to turn east. About 30 miles into that trip we hit Klamath Falls where I decided to stop for food and gas.
Lunch was an interesting adventure in and of itself. All of the fast food restaurants we have eaten at on this trip have really struggled to get back to pre-COVID form. We aimed for a Jack in the Box since it had a big parking lot, but were quickly turned away because the restaurant just closed down due to lack of workers… They said they were going to open up at 2:00 if we wanted to wait, but it was 1:30 - surely we could do better! So we went to the Taco Bell next door so we didn’t have to move Harvee. The staff was pleasant enough, but it took 30 minutes before we got our food - not a particularly difficult order. In that time, about 7 other people came in and ordered - one of which was quite a bit more interesting than the others. Walking in from an old pickup truck with a camper on the back, hand painted star on the door, and no windshield (that’s not a type-o, there was no windshield in this vehicle), this barely dressed young woman sauntered in much like the prostitutes of Grand Theft Auto walk along the street. I have no idea what might have been wrong with her leg - her heels seemed even, and she didn’t look to have a leg injury. I guess it gave me something to do while I waited the 30 minutes for my food.
Greasy tacos in our belly’s and a full tank of gas in Harvee (dispensed by the fine gas attendant at Chevron), we headed back on the open road. Little did we know that it was likely the last signs of civilization we would see for the rest of the day! OK, I’m exaggerating a little, but there was a 150 mile stretch where we saw maybe three cars and didn’t see a house or a town. There were several instances where I was concerned what would happen if something went wrong with Harvee… There was no cell phone coverage, and would be none for dozens of miles, and no towns, and few people traveling that stretch! Luckily Harvee operated like a champ!!! Not that the road didn’t throw plenty at us!!! There were plenty of windy parts, mountain climbs, mountain descents, etc. At one point, once we had emerged from the never ending windy canyon, we had a straight, gently downward road that seemed to go on for miles. Ahead of us, probably 15 miles off, Quinton and I could see a, I guess I don’t know what to call it - big hill, I guess? It looked like the hills you see in New Mexico as you are heading towards Arizona. There was a diagonal line going up that hill that I feared might be the road, but hoped against hope that it was not. Quinton and I even joked about it. “What if that was the road?” “There’s no way…” Well, it was. 8% grade and went on for probably 2 miles or so, it was by far the whitest my knuckles have been on this trip so far, possibly the whitest they’ve been in years!!!
At some point during the journey, Quinton had the idea of playing the alphabet game. You know, the one where you try to find all of the letters of the alphabet on road signs or license plates. It was actually a great game, since there were hardly any signs and we met so few vehicles! It took us nearly 3 hours to complete the game, which really helped to pass the time.
Eventually we made it to Winnemucca, NV which is on Interstate 80, around 7:30 in the evening. This was our target for the day, but we wanted to first get a decent sit-down meal. That turned out to be impossible since none of the restaurants have opened their dining rooms yet!!! So instead we got McDonalds and ate at their picnic tables on their patio while we tried to find a place to stay. I know - we have an RV - why would we stay somewhere? Well, we’ve been in Harvee for 17 days, and it’s HOT in Nevada. Also, the rest stops in Nevada are not nice… Nothing has quite stood up to the ones we drove past in Wyoming, anyway. So we searched around for about 15 minutes trying to find a room, only to find that there were no rooms available in Winnemucca. At one point Jenny asked if there was something going on in town that night, to which they responded that it is always like this. Winnemucca just happens to be the town where everybody breaks down, either mechanically or physically, on their way to wherever they are going, so the hotel rooms are constantly booked!
We managed to find a room at the Big Chief Motel in Battle Mountain, NV, about an hour drive from Winnemucca - in the right direction! And that’s where we are right now. Real beds, good air conditioning, and the room doesn’t smell bad at all!!! Tomorrow we continue East - perhaps completing our trip, perhaps not.

West Buckland School - Orchestra Play Concert on the Lawn
Thank you to the very talented pupils from West Buckland School who performed a wonderful concert on the lawn this morning. Children of all ages were mesmerised by the music, even our youngest children in the baby room were dancing along! Music teacher Mr Carter explained how music is written onto song sheets and showed the children what it looks like. The children were encouraged to take part in listening activities, clapping along with the rhythm of music and to understand how these sounds can be transpired onto paper.
There is just something so special, real and organic watching music being played in front of you. The children were in awe when they heard the different sounds made from a Cello, Violin, Guitar and Trumpet to name a few. The children and staff hummed, swayed, clapped & sang along to each rendition. The grand finale was incredibly special and emotion with their rendition of 'Lean on Me'.
The children and staff wish to thank West Buckland sincerely for such a valuable and wonderful morning.

PowaKaddy’s FW7golf trolley has been voted the best model on the market by Today’s Golfer magazine. In a series of comprehensive tests that put 11 of the most popular electric trolleys through their paces over a number of rounds, the flagship FW7 came out on top to take the Gold Award, edging out Motocaddy and Stewart Golf in the Silver and Bronze places respectively
The test – which took into account weight, folded size, ease of storing, electronic features, aesthetics and accompanying batteries – was revealed in the December issue of Today’s Golfer, on sale from 1 October.
PowaKaddy UK Sales Manager David Howse said: “We’re delighted to win this award and would like to thank both Today’s Golfer and all our trade accounts that’ve helped promote the new Freeway range superbly this year. It’s also recognition of the further improvements that have been made to all our Freeway trolleys in 2015 and the corresponding growth the brand has enjoyed in recent years.”
As with the FW3 and FW5 trolleys that make up the PowaKaddy Freeway range, the FW7 has been enhanced for 2015 with new, larger 11 inch wheels with low-profile tyres and a completely redesigned front wheel to enhance the stylish and sporty look. The lightweight-yet-strong PowaFrame, which is a key piece of technology in allowing each Freeway to fold into a car boot-friendly size, has also been reshaped in order to allow the handle to be raised by an inch, enhancing use for taller golfers.
PowaKaddy recently announced a 54 per cent increase in trolley unit sales across the UK and Ireland from June 2014 until June 2015. A surge in product sales has been helped by the Kent-based brand adding another assembly line to its Sittingbourne factory in March this year, which allowed the company to increase production capacity by 50 per cent.

Mr David Bruce - Pupil Premium Lead
Here at the Stanground Academy we are committed to ensuring every student experiences a diverse range of learning opportunities, despite their social background. To continue to support our most disadvantaged pupils, the Pupil Premium plan has focused on ensuring all disadvantaged pupils are supported through meeting their pastoral, social and academic needs whilst at the Stanground Academy. To achieve this, we encourage pupils to expand their horizons, develop skills, improve their performance, raise their aspirations and maximise their achievement. This supports the Stanground Academy to close the attainment gap between our Pupil Premium pupils and their peers.
What is the Pupil Premium?
Pupil Premium was introduced in 2011. The Pupil Premium is a sum of money given to schools each year by the Government to improve the attainment of disadvantaged children. This is based on research showing that children from low-income families perform less well at school than their peers. Often, children who are entitled to Pupil Premium face challenges such as poor language and communication skills, lack of confidence and issues with attendance and punctuality. The Pupil Premium is intended to directly benefit the children who are eligible, helping to narrow the gap between them and their classmates regardless of their background or financial situation.
Pupil Premium is allocated to pupils who:
- receive free school meals (FSM)
- have received free school meals at any time in the last 6 years (FSM Ever 6)
- have a parent serving in the armed forces
- are looked-after child (LAC)
At the Stanground Academy, we are committed to ensuring that all children make the best possible progress and have the same opportunities available to them as their peers. We constantly strive towards raising the attainment of all pupils. Through excellent teaching and learning, high expectations and aspirations.
In the financial year 2020-2021, the Stanground Academy receives £935 per eligible pupil (£2,300 for Looked After pupils and £300 for service children). Currently 31% of our pupils are eligible for the Pupil Premium grant.
Enabling your child to benefit from Pupil Premium
So that your child’s school can claim the Pupil Premium, you will need to register for Free School Meals. Registering does not mean your child has to take up free school meals if they don’t want to. They can still take a packed lunch.
Please click here for Free School Meals:
In improving outcomes for disadvantaged students, the following five areas are our focus
- Improving attendance
- Improving aspirations and expectation
- Improving literacy across all year groups
- Reducing behavioural issues across all year groups
- Improving parental engagement

Release Date: December 8, 2004
Milano, Dec 8, 2004
The meeting and friendship with veteran DJ War leads to initiating and deepening contacts as well as collaboration and helps the SEGNALE DIGITALE crew to enter into the spirit of the Salento reality, which grew with new realities and important events of which WARSOUND was collaborator, organizer and main protagonist thanks to its technical and musical experience as originator of the movement and also thanks to WARSOUND’s 10000 watt, memorable installation that heated so many dancehalls from 1995 to today.
Salento’s Antonio Conte, alias DJ War, can be considered Italy’s distributor of sound system culture and one of its most relevant and credited representatives. Pioneer in the self-building of installations that helped to best appreciate reggae music, he founds, together with Militant P., the first SUD SOUND SYSTEM nucleus (they considered Treble, Papa Gianni and Gigi D at the time), which, in the summer of 1988, organized the first mythical DanceHall on the cliffs and beaches of Salento. From there also began a long and fruitful story that is still going on today. In 1991, came out FUECU/TA’ SCIUTA BONA, the first SSS album, named revelation group of the year by the critics. DJ WAR activities coincide with those of SUD SOUND SYSTEM up to 1994.
After the Militant P group appearance, DJ War also goes his own way and builds WARSOUND SYSTEM with which he participates in the most important national Reggae, Hip-Hop and Jungle (R.A.S., FLAVA, JUICE, JUMP UP) shows, promoting and organizing various musical events in Salento and collaborating with the Bologna LINK together with artists such as Soul Lee Bee, Pepsi and dj Gruff. In 2002, he organized DA ‘BASS, a three day get-together in Torre dell’Orso (LE), was later in charge of the artistic programming of Suono della Strada in Arnesano (LE) and, always in Salento, in past summers and in different seasons, promoted DANZ with guests of the national and local scene. In the light of the experience of about 20 years of activity, DJ WAR is to be surely considered among the founding fathers of the actual REGGAE – HIP HOP music scene in Italy.

Pastor's Pro-Faith Graduation Speech Sparks Outrage, School Kowtows to Atheist Group and Issues New Guidelines
After the Freedom from Religion Foundation objected to a speaker who mentioned his religion during an address, the school district in Appleton, Wisconsin, is forcing everyone else who speaks to take an oath to say a pre-approved script before they take the podium.
According to the Appleton Post-Crescent, the Appleton Area School District is mandating that remarks be submitted and approved before they’re delivered. And, if you think speakers can just deviate from them, you’re wrong — they’ll have to swear under oath that they’re going to stick to them.
The FFRF calls this a “good solution.”
The plan was touched off by a speech given by a school board member at a graduation ceremony at the city’s North High School in June.
The Post-Crescent reported Rev. Alvin Dupree “said his source of strength is his faith and relationship with Jesus Christ and invited fellow Christians to applaud in agreement.
“Dupree, founder and minister of Family First Ministries, also told students to ‘never succumb to the pressure of being politically correct’ or ‘another man’s norm,’ led a moment of silence for a student who died before graduating with the class and closed his speech by changing the district’s prepared statement of ‘best wishes’ to ‘God bless.'”
Enter the FFRF, which believes the First Amendment’s freedom of religion essentially means you shut up about your religion pretty much anywhere near a public school or courtroom.
The organization wrote a letter to the district blasting them for “failure to take appropriate action” against Dupree and called for him to be banned from all events sponsored by the district — even though he’s a member of the board.
The organization also demanded that comments be submitted to the school board for approval and that there be a procedure in place which would allow the mic to be cut if the comments were deviated from.
While the FFRF didn’t get its wishlist, it came shockingly close.
“The opportunity to speak at a school event is a privilege, not a right,” a statement from Appleton Area School District issued last month read.
“These guidelines do not restrict or regulate individual speech or expression. However, individual speech and expression may still be subject to other restrictions or limitations that are imposed by law or that the District may lawfully enforce through other policies, rules or practices.”
Appleton schools superintendent Judy Baseman said that the new regulations would apply “consistently across any speakers.” This included students, although they seemed to be an afterthought in the policy.
“It comes back to one of the main pillars of our district’s strategic plan, which is to provide an inclusive, safe environment for all, while also balancing individual rights,” Baseman said.
“That’s critical to our role as a public school and we’re confident that these guidelines will accomplish that for our students, families and staff.”
Inclusivity and safety — provided, of course, you’re not a Christian who wants to talk about the role faith plays in their life. Or wear a cross around your neck, for that matter.
“A speaker may propose to be permitted to wear jewelry, clothing, or accessories that reasonably could be understood to communicate a message to the audience when the speech is given,” the policy reads.
“Speakers must disclose whether they intend to wear any such material(s) and must provide a photo of the material identified at the same time that the full and complete text of the speech is submitted.”
There’s plenty of other disturbing stuff in the document, but perhaps the most ominous line was that the guidelines were “not a mandate” and could be enforced at the discretion of the superintendent. You can guess, in other words, who’s going to be affected by this.
“We think the district did the right thing,” Ryan Jayne, an attorney with the FFRF, said. “We expect there won’t be any problems with [Rev.] Dupree speaking at district events in the future, because under these guidelines we don’t expect that he’ll be allowed to speak.”
Exactly. The FFRF had contacted the district three times in two years over Dupree. Now, they’ve finally shut him up.
“I think it’s a total disgrace for such procedures to be in place, because it has the potential to be used at the sole discretion of one person to discriminate against anyone that doesn’t line up with that position,” Dupree said regarding the ban, calling it “systematic bullying” and a “direct attack on the First Amendment.”
“To me, that is criminal and it’s wrong and it doesn’t lead to tolerance,” he said. “I’m not trying to force anyone of any faith or any religion or belief to think as I do — I think everyone should be allowed to freely express who they are as an individual.”
As Dupree pointed out, the superintendent “isn’t a lawyer, district attorney, judge or police officer trained in constitutional or other state and federal laws.”
And yet, they’re going to exercise discretion over what speech is allowed — both from board members and, distressingly, from students as well.
This is nothing more than a blatant attempt to take away First Amendment rights in the name of the First Amendment. Shameful.

We asked horse training expert Cheyanne West. More about Cheyanne
My name is Brad and recently we bought a horse that had a problem breathing. He is about 10 years old and I was informed that it isn’t heaves and from what I have seen of heaves this does seem different.
He breathes in very slow and out very fast. He does occasionally cough. When we first start riding him his breathing gets very loud and sounds terrible but after picking up the pace and exercising him it goes away and he’s fine. I was wandering if this might get worse or if it would be good to exercise him more. We are uncertain as to what to expect and would like get to the bottom of what may be causing this condition. When is cough was severe we gave him two doses of Penicillin and it is only occasional now. I would appreciate any advice you could offer me.
If you have had your veterinarian check this horse in a “pre-purchase” exam, perhaps you can check with them and see if he noticed an enlarged thyroid. This may be the cause of his difficulty breathing, if not certainly there is something obstructing his airway and suggest you have a vet look at him first before I make any alternative suggestions.

ONONDAGA COUNTY, N.Y. -- The chairman of the Onondaga County Legislature's Ways and Means Committee says a consensus is emerging among lawmakers that a new county budget should include a cut in taxes for local property owners.
County Executive Joanie Mahoney is due to present her proposals for 2013 to legislators next week. But Legislator David Knapp says he wants to see tax cuts, even if that means trimming some spending more deeply.
“We're going to take a hard look at everything. If it means cutting back a little bit, where it makes sense, then that might happen. But we really feel, from a taxpayer standpoint, from an economic development standpoint, we really need to send some money back to the taxpayers,” Knapp said.
Lawmakers will review the budget this month and will vote on a final spending plan in early October.

The New York Giants enter Week 2 of the 2012 NFL season already facing an uphill climb in their effort to defend their Super Bowl championship. The Giants lost their season-opening game to the Dallas Cowboys, 24-17, and are the only NFC East team to have suffered a loss the opening week of the season.
"You can’t lose a game. Everybody’s 1-0, and we’re 0-1," said Giants coach Tom Coughlin. [Full transcript]
The Giants might get cornerback Prince Amukamara (high ankle sprain) and defensive tackle Marvin Austin back this week. Starting offensive tackle Will Beatty also appears closer to returning to full-time duty. [See full story]
The game, set for 1 p.m. ET Sunday on FOX, features the return to New Jersey of former Rutgers University football coach Greg Schiano. Schiano is in his rookie season as an NFL head coach.
The game will also feature other players and coaches who are familiar to the Giants. Tampa Bay running back D.J. Ware was released by the Giants and claimed by the Buccaneers prior to the start of the season. Buccaneers offensive coordinator Mike Sullivan was the Giants' quarterbacks coach last season. Tampa Bay defensive coordinator Bill Sheridan served one aborted season (2009) as the Giants' defensive coordinator, and had been the team's linebackers coach before that.

A rare 100 percent on Rotten Tomatoes was more than enough to launch this week's buzzed-about horror film to the top of the box office charts.
In first is Get Out (read our review), which far exceeded even the rosiest expectations and grossed a whopping $30.5 million during its first three days. The film, directed by Jordan Peele of Key and Peele fame, earned widespread critical acclaim, and continues to hold on to its perfect score on review aggregate sites, which certainly helped its commercial prospects. Without any real established stars in its cast, Get Out is a prime example of the power of word-of-mouth, and how an enthusiastic response can make the smallest projects a breakout sleeper hit. The film, which cost just $4.5 million to produce, has already turned an excellent profit for Universal.
It will be interesting to see how Get Out holds up over the next few weeks. While it doesn't have any other horror films to deal with, March sees an unusually high number of high-profile blockbusters including Logan, Kong: Skull Island, and Beauty and the Beast. While it's unlikely to best any of those anticipated works, Get Out should continue to do very well for itself, especially as it rides the wave of positive momentum. It's not every day a movie gets literally 0 negative reviews, and people will want to see what all the hype is about.
Coming in second is The LEGO Batman Movie, which made $19 million in its third weekend. The animated spinoff is now up to $133 million domestically and has received a nice boost from the international markets. Its global total currently stands at $226 million, far surpassing the $80 million production budget.
The #3 film this week is John Wick: Chapter 2. The action sequel brought in $9 million, raising its Stateside total to $74.4 million.
In fourth is The Great Wall, which made $8.7 million in its second weekend. The Matt Damon vehicle has failed to impress domestically, and has made only $34.4 million in the States so far.
Rounding out the top five is Fifty Shades Darker, falling from second place last week. The film took a massive 62 percent hit in ticket sales, grossing $7.7 million in its third weekend. Its domestic haul is $103.6 million.
Fist Fight is sixth with $6.3 million. The comedy is now up to $23.2 million in the U.S.
Best Picture nominee Hidden Figures took advantage of its awards contention to come in seventh with $5.8 million. The space race drama has now made $152.8 million domestically.
Speaking of the Oscars, heavy favorite La La Land finished in eighth this weekend, grossing $4.6 million. Damien Chazelle's acclaimed musical is up to $140.8 million in the U.S.
The #9 movie is Split. M. Night Shyamalan's latest thriller added $4.1 million to its haul, raising its domestic total to $130.8 million.
Capping off the top 10 is Lion. Another Best Picture contender, the drama made $3.8 million and now stands at $42.8 million domestically.
[NOTE: These are only weekend box office estimates -- based on Friday and Saturday ticket sales coupled with adjusted expectations for Sunday. Official weekend box office results will be released on Monday, February 27 -- at which time we'll update this post with any changes.]

Hi there! My name is Luna!
*1.5 years old
*Lab/flat coated retriever mix
*Cat curious but friendly
*Extremely dog friendly
*Good with small children
*Knows some basic obedience commands
I am a sweet girl looking for an active forever home. I would love a family that could take me on daily runs (I am great on a harness!), or someone who was willing to give me regular trips to the dog park so that I can get my energy out. A home with another dog and a fenced in yard would be okay too! I am not all that picky, I just know that I will be happiest in a home that will keep me busy. I could even be an apartment girl with the right family. I don't bark much. I usually give a quick one here or there to let foster mom know that someone is at the door when they knock, and I quiet right down again when she tells me to. That doesn't mean that I don't know how to settle down and be a good, quiet girl though. I am actually quite mellow as long as I get my exercise. I am also very smart if I do say so myself. I catch on to basic commands quickly and am so eager to please my foster mama.
While I am enjoying my time in foster care, I am really looking for my own forever home. There are lots of hands to pet me here with the kids around, but I would prefer to spend the rest of my life with my family. After all, it means I get to love you longer!
If you think I could be your special girl, please apply at www.fchsnc.org/adoptable-dogs. My adoption fee is $225. I am already spayed, microchipped, up to date on all my vaccinations, heartworm negative, and on heartworm and flea/tick prevention. If you have any questions about me you can email my foster mom, Jess, at email@example.com and she will be happy to tell you all about me and what a great girl I am!

Nậm cake (steamed shrimp rice cake)
Nậm cake is made of rice flour, shrimp, wrapped in phrynium leaves and served with fish sauce. The processing procedure seems simple but actually requires the whole sincere heart of the cake maker from the shrimp choosing step to the fish sauce preparation. Most fresh shrimp must be soaked for several hours until soft and then grounded finely in a blender. Grounded shrimp, after added salt, sugar and fish sauce is stir-fried until dry and having a sweet and salty taste.
The rice batter, made of rice flour, should be smooth and soft. Next, fried shrimp is spread on the top of the rice batter, and the whole is wrapped into a rectangular shape and steamed for about 15 minutes. It is the time to take off the cover and sniff the elegant scent of phrynium leaves. The shrimp is crispy, a bit greasy, sweet and salty in a nice way that most people are inclined to savor it gradually, and it is mixed so well with the rice batter that it tastes great on its own and even better with the sweet and spicy fish sauce

Amy Jackson shoots for Being Human ad; shares selfie with Salman Khan
Salman Khan has roped in Amy Jackson to be the face of his Being Human Foundation. The actress has also shot for a commercial with Salman, and shared a cool selfie with the superstar on her Twitter timeline.
“So happy to be a part of the new @bebeinghuman campaign @BeingSalmanKhan,” the ‘Singh Is Bliing’ actress wrote with the picture.
"Amy has been signed as the face of the brand's clothing line. Salman and she have always wanted to work with each other. She had let go of Kick (2014) with him because she had given her dates to Shankar's ‘I’," a report in Mid-day quoted a source as saying.
"The duo has great energy. They discussed everything under the sun, from films to food. Salman also enquired how ‘2.0’ was shaping up. After a late pack-up, the crew headed to Salman's house," the source added.
The shooting began at around 11 am and went on till late evening. Salman joined Amy and the crew a little after noon, and with the superstar around, the set saw a lot of fun, the report stated.
Salman is known to promote new talents in Bollywood and has helped the likes of Katrina Kaif, Zareen Khan, Daisy Shah and some more, Amy seems to be the next one. The actress has even starred in the ‘Sultan’ actor’s brother Sohail Khan’s ‘Freaky Ali’.
Amy will be next seen in Rajinikanth and Akshay Kumar starrer ‘2.0’, a sequel of 2010 blockbuster ‘Enthiran’ (Robot). Interestingly, Salman has made a surprise visit during the teaser launch of the sci-fi last November, which sparked off rumours that they were an ‘item’.

' COOLING SYSTEM FOR ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT CABINETS Flled Sept 18. 1961 FIG. 4.
A TTOR/VEY United States Patent "ice 3,103,105 COOLING SYSTEM FOR ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT CABINETS Robert 5. Well, Santa Monica, Calif., assignor to W. D. Industries, Ltd., Beverly Hills, Calif., a corporation of California Filed Sept. 18, 1961, Ser. No. 138,842 6 Claims. (Cl. 62-172) This invention relates to a cooling system for electrical and electronic equipment enclosed in cabinets.
Complex installations of electronic equipment such as computers and the like enclosed in cabinets frequently become overheated when in use. Because of the large sizes of some of these units or cabinets, the air conditioning systems (normally designed for personnel comfort cooling) of the buildings or rooms in which they are housed are insuflicient to handle the extra heat load developed in the electrical and electronic equipment, and auxiliary cooling is essential.
The principal object of this invention is to provide an auxiliary cooling system for cabinets containing electronic equipment. Another object of the invention is to provide means for cooling and circulating air through electrical and electronic cabinets involving the addition of cooled fresh air expanded from a compressed air system. Another object is to provide means for cooling and humidifying the air circulated through electrical and electronic equipment cabinets by using expanded compressed fresh air as the cooling medium.
These and other objects are attained by my invention which will be understood from the following description, reference being made to the accompanying drawings in which FIG. 1 is a side elevational view partly in section showing a preferred form of my invention as applied to an electronic equipment cabinet;
'FIG. 2 is a plan view of the same with the cabinet and exhaust fan omitted;
FIG. 3 is a diagram showing the temperature control means for the air cooler system; and
FIG. 4 is a diagram oi an auxiliary humidity control means.
In the drawings, particularly FIGS. 1 and 2, there is shown "an electronic equipment cabinet 11 which is mounted on a platform 12, which may be provided with casters 13 to elevate the platform above the floor sufliciently to permit the provision of an air mixing chamber 14. The air mixing chamber has mounted therein an air turbine 15, and an induction fan 16, actuated by said air expander '15 through a speed reducer 17. Compressed air for use in the cooling system is provided by a compressor 20 which is preferably of the axial flow type actuated by a motor 26. The compressor may be disposed in an isolated location. An axial flow compressor is considered desirable for this system because at present it is the only type compressor which does not entrain oil particles in the compressed air.
The compressed air for the use in this cooling system may be supplied by a compressed air service line with which the building or electronic room may be equipped for other purposes, provided it has suflicient capacity, in which case a separate air compressor for this system may not be required.
A compressed air pipe line 21 from the compressor 20 is connected to an air valve 22 which is operatively connected to a thermostat .23, which is positioned within the electronic equipment cabinet. Depending upon the temperature in the cabinet, the thermostat 23, if the temperature is too high, opens the air valve 22 so that compressed air passes through the pipe lines 24 to the air 3,103,105 Patented Sept. 10, 1963 expander 15. The air turbine 15 consists of a turbine type rotor 27 mounted on a shaft 28 and having an inlet nozzle 29 and an exhaust outlet 30. The rotor 27 revolves in the housing 31 which is provided with an efficient heat insulating covering 32 such as glass Wool or bonded magnesia insulation. The exhaust outlet 30' is connected to a ditfuser 34 which delivers the expanded air upwardly into the induced air stream above the expander 15, the air stream being moved by the induction [fan 16 which is mounted on the vertical shaft 36, integral with or coupled to the shaft of the speed reducer 17. The speed reducer 17 is mounted over the expander on brackets -38 which extend upwardly from the housing3 1 of the air expander 15. The shaft 28 of the air expander 15 is operatively connected to the speed reducer 17 so that when the air expander is rotating, preferably at speeds from 4000 to 8000 rpm, the induction fan 16 operates at a low speed of about 1 200 to 1800 rpm.
When the temperature in the cabinet has been lowered by the use of compressed air as above described, the thermostat in the cabinet actuates a pressure switch 3-9 which stops the compressor 20' and simultaneously opens another pressure switch 40 which sets in operation the exhaust fan 41 which is disposed on the top ot the cabinet 11 over an exhaust opening 42, so that room air is sucked into the cabinet through openings '33 in the sides and base of the 'air cooler housing 14 below the cabinet, entering the cabinet through the bottom openings 19 therein. When the temperature at the thermostat has again become too high, the reverse control actions are started, that is, the axial compressor 20 is again actuated, the exhaust fan 41 is disconnected, and the cooling cycle starts by the adiabatic expansion of the compressed air in the air expander 15.
Electronc equipment operates best under humidity conditions of about 50 percent relative humidity, and therefore under dry climatic conditions, it is desirable to have automatic humidifying means in conjunction with the intake to the compressed air system and optional drying means in the compressed air line. This is shown schematically in FIG. 4. A humidity controller 45 pneumatically actuates a water valve 46 which admits water to an ambient air humidifier 47. The ambient air for the compressor enters the air inlet port 48 of the humidifier 47 Where it is mixed with water vapor and passes into the compressor 20.
Under some other conditions the ambient or the humidified compressed air may contain too much moisture, and therefore a compressed air drier 50 (for example a Sta-dri filter) is provided, a by-pass valve 51 controlled pneumatically by said humidity controller 45 being also provided to provide for drying the compressed air to the desired humidity, before it goes to the air turbine 15 through the pipe line 24.
The operation of my air cooling system for electronic and electrical equipment cabinets will be understood from the above description of the equipment and its operation. For example, the tempenaature of the air from the air turbine 15 is about 30 F. when the air from the compressor 20 is at a pressure of about 21 pounds per square inch (absolute), which provides ample cooling to the desired operating temperature in the cabinet.
It will be understood that if a service line of compressed air is available and is utilized instead of a separate compressor, then the pressure switch 40 will actuate a valve disposed in the compressed air service line, which is opened and closed by the action of the pressure switch.
The objectives stated in the beginning have been attained.

In May 2001, NME ran an article titled, “The Strokes — Why New York’s Finest Will Change Your Life — Forever!” At the time, the writer proclaimed The Strokes, “look and sound like the band who are going to save rock.”
In many ways the writer was right. In the early ’00s (or as Julian Casablancas would say: “whatever the fuck they’re called”) New York City, The Strokes were the future of Rock. They were a bunch of kids that went to a “rival” high school of mine. They then stayed in town to perform for us New York kids, which in many ways made them all the more legendary to me. Rather quickly, everyone knew someone who knew Julian or Nick or Nikolai or Fabrizo or Albert.
At the time, you would find yourself in conversations about The Strokes and how they are bound to “sell out” for the money. This is not unlike any other conversation you may have with your friends or on Reddit. We all enter these conversations like we are the authority of what “selling out” means. We also feel that “selling out” destroys the music we love — even though music doesn’t die (Sorry, Don). It’s like we all feel overly protective, and like Holden Caulfield need to help our favorite band from falling off the cliff. For reference, that is the claim of Mark David Chapman on why he plotted to kill John Lennon. Chapman wanted to prevent Lennon from selling out.
My favorite part of The Strokes New Year’s Eve 2020 show this past week (besides the music and the new song “Ode To The Mets” was when Julian Casablancas addressed selling out. Albert Hammond Jr. quickly went over to Julian and corrected him, “not sold out, bought in.” It was a funny, sweet, and unexpected moment that said so much about their relationship, which at times I thought was strained, and the future of The Strokes.
The concept of “selling out” means something different in your teens and early 20s than it does in your late 30s and early 40s. In a conversation with Dev Hynes a few years ago, Julian said, “I love selling out. No, I’m kidding… No, I think you have to weigh it, I think you gotta weigh the good versus the bad effects of those kinds of decisions.” As they got older, The Strokes started weighing their decisions, which led them back home on New Year’s Eve.
On New Year’s Eve, The Strokes were confident, assured in who they are, and came across accepting of one another. It was as if the struggles each have gone through over the past 20+ years banded them together, or “froze them” together. In announcing an upcoming album Casablancas addressed this bond:
“Yeah, we’ve got a new album coming out soon! 2020, here we come. The 2010s, whatever the fuck they’re called, we took ’em off. And now we’ve been unfrozen, and we’re back. If you really lvi someone, you’ll be frozen with them. You know what? I don’t know what I say generally, and I rumble a lot, but I love you guys, and it’s a real honor to share the stage and this night with you guys.”
I dig the new song off of their upcoming album: “Ode To The Mets,” which you can see below. Casablancas response after performing it was text book Casablancas. He called it terrifying to perform a new song but even more frightening when its met with a subdued applause. Yes, The Strokes are older and more confident. However they are human and want their fans to understand where they are today and what to expect in 2020.
In 2020 I am all in for The Strokes. Don’t call it a “sell out,” because it’s a “buy in.”

ars technica has an interesting take on the pros and cons of Apple lowering their prices. I think they do a fair job. Essentially it boils down the fact that once Apple lowers their price they won’t easily raise it back up. One interesting point was that Apple has weathered the downturn in the economy quite well turning record profits, no doubt a huge portion of that is due to high profit margins. I see the point of the ars article, but I am not sure I totally agree.
There are two things speaking as a consumer. First I haven’t ever purchased a Mac. I am writing this on a Mac, but never purchased one on my own. They are expensive and I am just not sure I am willing to pay the increased price when I can get something quite similar at a cheaper rate (I think a lot of business fall into this same problem). I like the OS and they do build beautiful well engineered machines, but for that price? I also like choice, but that is quite a different topic. Now all that said applied to me before the downturn in the economy. Now with the boom of netbooks and general lower prices on computer hardware it is almost impossible to justify a $2000+ 15″ laptop (and I know it isn’t fair to compare a netbook to the MBP, but even a comparable 15″ laptop from most other PC makers is well under 2K). It gets worse if you compare the desktops (with a possible exception with the starting iMac). Of course lowering the prices now on Macs may be bad timing (if things are truly as rosey as Bernanke tried to indicate yesterday).
I don’t know that Mac really needs to lower prices per se, I mean people are still buying their current lineup. The reality is that they should have more choices and with that lower prices. Most people don’t need the processing power of an MBP, but when it is either that or a 13″ screen many opt for the higher price just for screen space. Same is true of Mac Pros. I can think of very few people in the consumer world that need that much computing power, but if you want an expandable desktop there is your option. The point is that they should offer laptops of varying price points with varying sizes. Maybe offer something other than a Mac Mini sub-1000. And lets be truthful is the Mac Mini really that good of a deal? It starts at $600 with no monitor, keyboard, or mouse. By the time you add everything else up, oh and don’t forget the upgrade because the base system is crap, and you have a $1000 machine. Dell could get you into a desktop, not quite as small or sexy mind you, with monitor (flat screen), keyboard, mouse, and printer for less than the $600 price tag of the Mini unit.
My point is that lowering prices might help, but I know Apple, their lowering of prices will be marginal and almost meaningless. Oh people will praise them for it, but it won’t change my mind about purchasing one. I would rather get choice and variety. I think if Apple builds it they will come. The ars article suggests that when people buy the cheaper machines (given that they will be made cheaply) that will cause problems for Apple. I suppose they are right that some will complain, but I think most will realize that you get what you pay for. If you don’t like the quality of the $1000 15″ upgrade to our $2000 MBP. I think that is how most companies work. And for the few that will complain you will reap a whole heap of new customers and wider market share (and probably profit too).

A funny thing often happens on the way to follow your life’s calling. You discover what you love to do, what you are gifted at, and once you fully commit to ‘go for it’—you invest heavily of all of your resources to get educated and forge forward. The way is difficult, but glorious—as the horizon comes into view! You turn to celebrate with your friends, only to find that no one has followed you.
Such seems to be the experience of the pioneer. Uncharted wilderness beckons you to venture out, traveling light, plowing and breaking rocky ground—with your FACE. You question and analyze your mission, your approach, even your own sanity, because nothing seems to go smoothly. No one can define success or failure, because the guidebook hasn’t been written yet. You get to brave all sorts of dangers, pitfalls, unknown elements, and dark places, because most folks are too fearful or uninterested to accompany you.
It takes supernatural strength to conquer new territory AND endure the disparaging attacks of the ‘normal’ status quo opinions ‘back home’.
People describe you as ‘weird’ or ‘misguided’ because they do not understand the pull on your spirit, the dreams that compel you, the Voice that no one else hears that encourages, “You can do this—you’re making an eternal difference for multitudes by your willingness and faith to stand alone as a trailblazer.” In the process, you come to know beyond a shadow of a doubt that it is God that leads and empowers you in the challenge.
Because of Destiny’s Direction, you go where no man has gone before, wielding revolutionary approaches, hoping to show others that ‘it’ can be done, even if you are not quite sure yourself how it will eventually work out. After you do the groundbreaking, you can summon the others to tell them what lies ahead—to assure them that the way is ‘viable’.
Keep up the good work! Your loving labor and extravagant cost is not wasted. If you’ve been called, you will also be equipped for the journey.
It takes time for anything innovative to get established and become standardized. Followers will catch on, and then go faster and farther than you, but only because you’ve prepared the way and paved the road for them to travel on.
In good character, you can delight in their progress and cheer them on as they push past to re-work and rebuild your efforts into something even better.
But you may not ever realize the full results—because you’re a pioneer at heart, and you are probably already dreaming about . . . your NEXT assignment.
“Don’t become so well-adjusted to your culture that you fit into it without even thinking. Instead, fix your attention on God. You’ll be changed from the inside out.” Romans 12:2

Retail giant REWE Group has opened a new store which it describes as the 'supermarket of the future' in Wiesbaden-Erbenheim, Germany.
The new supermarket features a farm on the roof and utilises a large amount of wood as the main building material.
REWE Green Building
The new store is a pilot project for the new generation of sustainable REWE 'Green Building' stores.
The store, which opened this week, is the first supermarket in Europe with a resource-saving food production facility on the roof, the company noted.
The store is approximately 1,500 square meters and stands out for its unusual architectural concept, with pillars made of stacked wood forming the supporting structure for the glass roof farm, and a unique vaulted structure that extends into the market.
The retailer worked with, acme, an architecture firm in London, to design the store, which features a natural marketplace ambience and plenty of daylight.
'New Generation Of Green Markets'
Peter Maly, vice president, REWE Group, said, "With Green Farming in Erbenheim, we are introducing a new generation of green markets at REWE, because for us a holistic approach to sustainability includes not only product ranges, but also construction and operation.
"A new building that is unique in Germany and Europe has been created here, combining a supermarket, basil farm and fish farm under its glass roof - a state-of-the-art green building. We have built over 200 green buildings in Germany since 2009. The new store with an integrated roof farm is the logical next step for us."
Using wood in the design is a core element of REWE's supermarket of the future concept, with around 1,100 cubic metres of the renewable raw material used in the store.
The local softwood stores over 700 tonnes of CO2, and in 30 years, the wood will grow back and the CO2 will be balanced.
Intelligent cooling and heating technology, 100% green electricity, and the use of rainwater for the roof farm, sanitary facilities, and cleaning purposes are some of the measures to ensure that resources are conserved.
The outdoor areas are designed to be sustainable and additional green areas and a flowering meadow create a natural habitat for insects.
The farm on the roof is used for growing basil, which will be supplied to around 480 REWE stores across Germany. Around 20,000 cichlids are being bred in pools and will be available to purchase later this year, the retailer said.

The Biden administration filed a complaint on Thursday aimed at blocking tech giant Microsoft’s $69 billion bid to buy “Call of Duty” games maker Activision, over concerns the deal would deny rivals access to popular games.
Microsoft, which owns the Xbox, said in January 2022 that it would buy Activision for $68.7 billion in the biggest gaming industry deal in history.
In its complaint, the Federal Trade Commission, which enforces antitrust law, said that Microsoft had a record of buying valuable gaming content and using it to suppress competition from rival consoles.
“Microsoft has already shown that it can and will withhold content from its gaming rivals,” said Holly Vedova, director of the FTC Bureau of Competition. “Today we seek to stop Microsoft from gaining control over a leading independent game studio and using it to harm competition in multiple dynamic and fast-growing gaming markets.”
Microsoft President Brad Smith said the company would fight the FTC. “While we believed in giving peace a chance, we have complete confidence in our case and welcome the opportunity to present our case in court,” he said.
The decision to sue comes as the Biden administration has taken a more aggressive approach to antitrust enforcement. The U.S. Department of Justice recently stopped a $2.2 billion merger of Penguin Random House, the world’s largest book publisher, and smaller U.S. rival Simon & Schuster.
Shares in Microsoft and Activision both fell on news of the FTC complaint. Shares in Activision were down 2.3% at $74.19 per share, while Microsoft slipped from earlier highs but was still trading nearly 1% higher for the day at $246.31.
The U.S. software company had said it wanted the deal to help it compete with gaming leaders Tencent and PlayStation owner Sony, which has criticized the deal.
To woo regulators, shortly after the deal was announced Microsoft launched a new set of principles for its app store, including open access to developers who meet privacy and security standards.
And in December, in another move to blunt criticism, Microsoft entered into a 10-year commitment to bring “Call of Duty” to Nintendo platforms, bringing the popular first-person shooter series to the company for the first time. Microsoft made the same offer to Sony.
Chair Lina Khan and the two Democrats on the commission voted to approve the complaint, while Commissioner Christine Wilson voted no.

Program’s Goal is to Advance Superconductor Design and Propel Electronics Beyond CMOS
Bangalore, Oct. 26, 2017 –
- Synopsys will enhance its state-of-the-art EDA tool flow to support ultra-low temperature superconducting technology
- Increasing the scale, efficiency, and quality of Superconducting Electronics (SCE) design is critical to realizing its potential in applications such as supercomputers, enabling them to operate at exascale speed, perform 1018 calculations per second, and use less power than today’s petascale machines
- Partnerships and collaboration with leading industry and academic experts will foster the development of a comprehensive solution for SCE that will benefit Synopsys’ customers in government and commercial high-performance computing
Synopsys, Inc. (Nasdaq: SNPS) today announced that the Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity (IARPA) has awarded Synopsys a significant multi-year research and development contract to advance EDA tool flows for Superconducting Electronics (SCE). As part of the IARPA SuperTools Program, Synopsys will collaborate with experts in the field of SCE to develop a comprehensive set of tools that increase the scale, efficiency, and manufacturability of these designs. SCE technology promises to enable advanced high-end computing applications, cryogenically operated low noise sensors and imagers, space applications, and communication links. SCE technology has the potential to propel the electronics industry beyond CMOS, enabling a major leap in processing speeds and power efficiency.
“The goal of the SuperTools program is to help make the same design and TCAD tools and quality libraries that drove the semiconductor industry’s growth available for the emerging superconductor industry,” said Dr. Mark Heiligman, manager of the IARPA SuperTools program. “As a long-time leader in design and TCAD, and the largest EDA company, Synopsys is an outstanding company to lead the development of this tool flow.”
IARPA estimates that SCE operating in a cryogenic environment would allow a supercomputer to operate at 100 petaflops of performance for about 200 kilowatts. Today, supercomputers run at 20 petaflops and 10 megawatts.
“For over thirty years, Synopsys has developed EDA tools that have enabled the semiconductor industry to keep pace with semiconductor scaling and enabled Moore’s Law,” said Antun Domic, chief technology officer of Synopsys. “IARPA’s investment in superconducting technology, as evidenced by the C3 supercomputer and now SuperTools programs, can help SCE evolve and become accessible for more designs. We look forward to our collaboration with IARPA to expand the technical success and enable commercial customers to take advantage of this technology as it evolves.”
Partnering for Success
Synopsys has partnered with leading superconducting industry and academic experts. HYPRES Inc., a leading SCE company, will consult on developing libraries, circuits, IP processing and testing. Academic experts from Stony Brook University, Yokohama National University, and the University of Rochester will play key roles in the guidance and development of the project. As Richard Hitt, president of HYPRES, explains, “Conventional semiconductor design is highly automated and circuits that can contain more than one billion gates are created with automated design tools. Superconductor circuits today can operate at clock speeds in excess of 100Ghz but are limited to thousands of gates that must be hand-crafted by experts. We’re very excited to help IARPA and Synopsys enable broader use of this technology by bringing to bear our years of SCE design, testing and manufacturing expertise to this program.” For more information on HYPRES, visit www.hypres.com.

Jeremy Goldstein planned an extravagant wine and food event for 22nd may with the assistance of Jim Finkel and Omar Khan. The occasion was in support of Fountain House. Fountain House is an association, which assists residents of New York who suffers from mental illness.
A current article mentioned the relevance of Jeremy Goldstein charity occasion and work of Fountain House. Over Four million individuals suffer from mental illness globally and the situation has a key influence on the entire community and the Family. Some persons who suffer from a mental illness are not able to retain a work.
Another group of people find it hard to cope with life events and have difficulties in learning. A couple’s Mental illness has caused many relationships to end. More so, those who suffer from it are not able to manage their finance well and care for themselves. Jeremy Goldstein mission is to assist persons overcome this problem and live a satisfying life.
Fountain House has been in operation for over fifty years. Six individuals worked together to found the association. Read more: Jeremy Goldstein | Ideamensch and Jeremy Goldstein | Chambers and Partners
With the initial name of the association being ‘We are not alone’ the initiators were all patients who reside in New York Rockland State Hospital. That was the duration of which many mental illness patients were being admitted to hospitals. The facility was well recognized as it provided deficient care.
Mental illness patients often feel lonely even when surrounded by family members and friends since they do not experience the same feelings. The six beginners wanted other patients to develop a strong bond amongst them and offer shared emotional support. They bought a building in New York City in 1948 to spearhead this vision. Fountain Home got its name since in the property’s garden there was a fountain.

This work is published for performance and study. The performance set includes a saddle-stitched full score for reference, a saddle-stitched part booklet for the flautist, a loose-leaf part set for the percussionist and an audio CD, which contains the digital audio part and is played on a sound system for performance. The work must not be performed without the digital audio part.
About the work:
The starting point for this work is Voices of the Land, the third part of Footprints In New Snow, a radio documentary/composition about the Inuit and their culture which the composer created in 1995 with CBC Radio producer Keith Horner. In the documentary, the foreground is occupied by the voice of Winston White, an Inuit Elder and broadcaster from Nunavut who speaks about the north and its inhabitants. In the present work, this place is taken by the flute and vibraphone.
Selected publication review:
'This is a trio for flute, vibes and digital audio. The digital audio part is from an earlier (1995) work by Hatzis and Keith Horner titled Voices of the Land from a radio documentary/ composition titled “Footprints in New Snow.”
At one point the vibes player must sing while playing rolled octaves. An optional part for a child singer is also included. The vibes part includes many ostinato sections, fragmented rhythmic patterns, and only five measures with rolled four-note chords. The flute part is more virtuosic, with wide-ranging passages and leaps, trills, key clicks, flutter tongue, etc.
The significant points that need to be synchronized with the audio part are clearly marked. Various arrows denote changes of tempo in the audio part that must be adjusted to by the musicians. An outline of the audio part is included in the score only. The score abounds with meter changes, polyrhythms, quasi-canonic passages, dynamic extremes (pppp to ff) and tempo changes. This would be appropriate for university performance majors and faculty/professional musicians.'

It’s a pretty common complaint among gamers that nothing good comes out during the summer. Well kill that noise mister (or miss, as the case may be)! New releases might come slower during the hot, thunderstorm-filled part of the year, but there’s still quality stuff making its way to your consoles and PCs. Heck, Time even came up with a list of 25 games to look forward to this summer alone.
This week isn’t particularly jam packed, but with representatives from the sports, strategy and action genres plus a walk down memory lane with the biggest “Pacific Rim” fan out there, it’s not too shabby either. Here’s what’s new for July 9:
“NCAA Football 14″ (PlayStation 3, Xbox 360)
College football is getting the Heisman pose from EA Sports when it comes to next gen consoles this year (and timing may have something to do with that), so it’s back to the PS3 and 360 for “NCAA.” New features this season include the addition of Ultimate Team, enhanced physics, even more presentation tweaks, and a dumbed down recruiting system. Okay, that last one isn’t really a feature.
“Civilization V: Brave New World” (PC)
One of the most consistent time sinks in gaming gets its second expansion, adding nine new civilizations like Poland, Indonesia and the Zulus. For those who’d rather not conquer to win, “Brave New World” also has a heavy focus on improving the Culture and Diplomacy aspects of the game, giving players legitimate new ways to win. Build new wonders, manipulate the World Congress, and generally find new excuses to play just one more turn.
“Dark” (Xbox 360)
With this title, it would be great if this game touted advanced lighting effects. That’s not actually the case, but it does bring stealth action to the world of vampires. The main character has to drink the blood of the vampire who turned him or face a fate worth than death, but he also has to drink other folks’ blood to refill the pool of points that powers his nifty stealth abilities. Sounds like he may need a straw.
“Metal Gear Solid: The Legacy Collection” (PlayStation 3)
The glass half empty way to look at this is as Konami attempting to sell you some games you already own. Ah, but the glass half full view says you may not have all of these games, and certainly not all in one place like this. There’s also a cool 100-page art book and motion comic versions of the MGS graphic novels, and the whole package carries a price that’s (slightly) less than one new game. It’s Kojima-rific.

Nina, working with consultancy FEB, helped Sam Baker, Lauren Laverne and Sara Horrocks to launch their women’s lifestyle digital product The Pool.
When we first met the Pool team they were at a very early design stage – the concept was clear, but they needed support to get the product defined and ready to launch.
WHAT WE DID
Nina recruited and interviewed individuals who represented The Pool’s target audience, to understand their information needs and to capture immediate feedback on first stage wireframes for The Pool responsive site.
The audience feedback helped to clarify the features and functionality included on the final site.
