Tundra Games has released Rapture - World Conquest for iOS today so it's time to give your fingers a work out, I reckon.

Rapture is a fast-paced strategy game in which you play a god and lead a civilisation on a global conquest in order to escape the apocalypse.

It's a strategy game for people who may find the genre a bit slow and dull, really. Each game lasts about five minutes, you see.

But, certainly, anyone can enjoy it - it's very accessible once you work out the bustling interface. It's all taps and drag-and-drop, with your mind throwing out strategies as you spot them.

You may have read my rather enthusiastic preview of it a couple of weeks ago. It surprised me with how chaotic it all is while retaining some of what makes Civilization so special.

Bake It, Kwalee's hypercasual cooking game initially launched back in April and since then it has been downloaded an impressive 10 million times. It's not entirely surprising given the back catalogue of Kwalee which includes Draw It and Jetpack Jump which have been downloaded 80 and 38 million times respectively.

The development time for the game was apparently very swift. Bake It was pitched in February and was then promptly released on 28th April and was completely developed remotely. If you're unfamiliar with the game itself, it tasks players with matching their cooking with customer orders in order to gain the title of Star Baker.

They'll do this by shaping, icing and decorate various cakes and other sweet treats. As you progress you'll be able to save up coins to upgrade your bakery and you'll unlock different recipes which means more desserts to create alongside additional toppings, icing and tray shapes to choose from. It's quite a fun game honestly although it also bombards you with ads at every possible opportunity.

Discussing the 10 million milestone David Darling, CEO of Kwalee said: “That we’ve already reached 10 million downloads with Bake It is a source of great pride – especially given the circumstances under which we released it.”

He added: “Right from the first pitch, Bake It stood out as a game with great potential and we can’t wait to make good on that promise by celebrating many more download milestones for the game. The first successful remote release also gives us real confidence for the many games we’ve currently got in the works. It shouldn’t be long before we’re repeating this success with more remotely developed and published games!”

Bake It is available now over on the App Store and Google Play. It's a free-to-play game with in-app purchases.

Nigeria to see further food price hikes in Q4 2022, says AFEX
November 18, 2022260 views0 comments
By Onome Amuge
- Welcome to the world of ‘Open Banking’ in Nigeria
- Cashless economy and Nigeria as developing nation
- Nigeria sees inflation hit 17-year high at 21.91% in February 2023
- Economist sees emerging political order reshaping Nigeria’s future
- Nigeria pledges repatriation as foreign airlines trapped funds hit $743m
The recent incidents of flooding resulting from incessant rainfall and larger global economic effects in key food-producing regions are most likely to result in further price hikes across Nigeria and further heighten the gap between production and output level by farmers in the fourth quarter of 2022.
AFEX, Nigeria’s leading commodities market player, made the projection in its 2022 Wet Season Crop Production Report launched recently at the AFEX head office in Abuja.
The report, which seeks to provide accurate and reliable data to aid the understanding of the national food system through farmer surveys and measurement of transaction level data, tracks six key commodities and their performance in the preceding season.
As reflected in the report, price and market changes across maize, paddy rice, sorghum, soybean, cocoa, and sesame have been affected due to predictable seasonality effects, activities in the agricultural value chain and larger macroeconomic global events.
As a consequence, higher prices were forecast across all commodities in the report. Maize is projected to reach a higher average price point ranging between $486.72 (or NGN214,980) and $498.09 (or NGN220,000) per metric tonne by the end of Q4 2022, compared to an average price of $475.97 (or N210,229) per metric tonne in Q4 2021. Also, soybean prices are projected to rise by six percent by May 2023.
According to the report, Nigeria’s most consumed grains are currently faced with declining food balance sheets as consumption levels rise faster than production levels, worsening food insecurity. As a consequence, AFEX forecast an average decline in production levels of up to 11.5 percent across commodities like maize, paddy rice, sorghum, and cocoa. On the other hand, it noted that soybean and sesame will experience a close to 6.5 percent increase in production levels.
AFEX stressed that the effects of the Russia-Ukraine crisis remain a persistent cause of the price surge in the local agricultural commodity markets, especially because of the hike in the price of fertiliser. This negative impact was also highlighted in the report as affecting the output level of most commodities. The report also forecast paddy rice as being the most susceptible to production and output pressures, facing close to a 22.47-percent decline in production volumes in 2022 in the wake of the crisis-induced fertiliser price hike.
David Ibidapo, AFEX’s head of market data and research, who presented the report findings at the launch event, indicated that the company’s annual crop production report seeks to provide robust market intelligence for agriculture value chain players in Nigeria.
“We have more than doubled the count of farmers surveyed for this research, up from 9,117 farmers surveyed last year to 20,677 farmers surveyed for this year’s report,” he said.
Ibidapo also specified key indicators measured through the survey, stating that factors such as land usage, inputs (quality of seeds and fertilizer usage), weather conditions, and the farmers’ output expectations were put into primary consideration.
On the challenges limiting Africa’s agriculture output, AFEX observed that access to reliable data is a recurring limitation for agriculture on the continent. To this end, the commodities exchange firm said it has consistently advocated for a food balance sheet that will strengthen productivity improvement efforts, subsequently enhancing food security across Africa.

It was the big headline of the day Wednesday — Trump bans transgender people from the military.
In a three-part tweet Wednesday, President Trump made a landmark announcement about transgender citizens serving in the military: “After consultation with my Generals and military experts, please be advised that the United States Government will not accept or allow. Transgender individuals to serve in any capacity in the U.S. Military. Our military must be focused on decisive and overwhelming victory and cannot be burdened with the tremendous medical costs and disruption that transgender in the military would entail. Thank you.”
The backlash was hard-hitting. Politicians ripped into the president, as did celebrities and LGBT activists like Caitlyn Jenner (formally Bruce Jenner).
Civil rights activist groups GLAAD and the ACLU both spoke out against the policy, with the former characterizing it as a “direct attack” on transgender Americans.
“His administration will stop at nothing to implement its anti-LGBTQ ideology within our government — even if it means denying some of our bravest Americans the right to serve and protect our nation,” said GLAAD president and CEO Sarah Kate Ellis in a statement. “Today further exposed President Trump’s overall goal to erase LGBTQ Americans from this nation. Trump has never been a friend to LGBTQ Americans, and this action couldn’t make that any more clear.”
The ACLU put forth a powerful stance, as well, questioning both the motivation for and logistical justification to Trump’s mandate.
“This is an outrageous and desperate action. The thousands of transgender service members serving on the front lines for this country deserve better than a commander-in-chief who rejects their basic humanity. Let us be clear. This has been studied extensively, and the consensus is clear: There are no cost or military readiness drawbacks associated with allowing trans people to fight for their country.
“The president is trying to score cheap political points on the backs of military personnel who have put their lives on the line for their country. There is no basis for turning trans people away from our military and the ACLU is examining all of our options on how to fight this. For any trans service member affected by today’s announcement: Please get in touch with us, because we want to hear from you,” the organization’s statement read.
If you didn’t take our poll from Wednesday, it’s still open. Thus far, people are supporting the idea of a 3rd party.
The ballot process differs from state to state, making it nearly impossible for Independent candidates to run for president, or any public office, for that matter. But, if enough Americans were to stand up and demand a change, there could be an outside chance for the birth of a legitimate Independent Party.
Would you support such a thing? After one day of voting, 72% of people are for a 3rd party, while 14% are uncertain and 13% say ‘no.’ To take the poll and have your voice heard, you can click here. The poll will remain open all day Thursday.

Nearly One Thousand Rescued Iowa Animals Need Your Help
Stories like this always break my heart into a million pieces. Yesterday, animal rescuers with The Cedar Valley Humane Society made a visit to a home on 6th St. in Vinton, where they discovered hundreds of animals in a neglectful situation. The Director of Development & Community Outreach for the Cedar Valley Humane Society Preston Moore told CBS 2 that it was their largest rescue to date and the worst conditions that he has ever witnessed. CBS 2 reports that the animals rescued from the home include, "guinea pigs, mice, hamsters, gerbils, and rabbits, hedgehogs, chinchillas, turtles, fish, birds, and a ball python."
The horrible conditions were discovered when the owner of the home, Babs Galkowski, was reported to police for violating city ordinances. She said that she acquired the animals by rescuing them and that she was recently sick, which is why the conditions weren't ideal. Many of the animals were found to be dehydrated and malnourished, with some found to have had illegal surgery performed on them, and others already dead. Barb still plans to fight for custody.
The Cedar Valley Humane Society has teamed up with Friends of the Shelter and Wild Thunder Animal Rescue to build a temporary shelter for these rescued animals, but they also need help from the public. They are in need of supplies such as:
- small animal cages
- Water bottles for animal cages
- Food bowls that clip onto small cages
- HE laundry detergent
- Bird food
- Paper animal bedding
- Small mammal nail trimmers
But, you can also donate money. If you'd like to help, click HERE for more details.
Let's get these poor animals the help that they need!

Kylie Jenner has just announced the death of Snapchat.
RIP Snapchat, you poor thing.
The social media starlet recently made her return to all of her platforms following the birth of her daughter, but there’s one that has not been graced with her face.
Despite being the queen of Snapchat, for her the app has died a death as she admitted she no longer even opens it.
So now the app has withered and died from neglect after it’s main source of nourishment has gone.
‘Sooo does anyone else not open Snapchat anymore? Or is it just me… ugh this is so sad,’ Kylie wrote.
She added her own version of an RIP, saying: ‘Still love you tho snap…my first love.’
It’s so, so sad. And it was so young, still in its prime. In fact it hasn’t even hit double figures in age just yet. Yes it might have been going through some changes, but there was still life in it.
Although the changes might have been what sealed its fate.
Fans of the app have been up in arms since the update came in, and perhaps Kylie is just one of those adverse to change.
That’s a bit of a kick in the pants for Snapchat bosses as the influencer has 24.5 million followers and is pretty much the queen of all social media.
The two have also worked together – last year she teamed up with Snap to broadcast exclusive video as well as giving sneak peeks at her personal life.
She did give a heads up that she thought Snapchat was on its last legs in a tweet earlier this month which said: ‘Mm just saw the new Snapchat…I don’t know how I feel about it! What do you guys think?’
Maybe the app’s bosses should hire Kylie as their new designer.
Perhaps Kylie is just too busy with her new baby to enjoy Snap anyway, as she recently gave an update on how the little bubba has been doing.
‘She’s good ? still staring at her all day. she looks just like me when i was a baby.’

Co-authored by Christina Tassopoulos
- When a property is owned by 2+ people, one owner might want to sell it against the wishes of the others. Under Ontario’s Partition Act, this is typically allowed. Stothers vs Kazeks is one of the rare exceptions.
- In 2005, Stothers moved out of the jointly-owned home with Kazeks and applied to sell this year, after being diagnosed with terminal cancer and needing to get her affairs together.
- Kazeks showed more than enough evidence that a forced sale would cause serious hardship financially, personally and emotionally, and the court ruled in his favour.
When properties are owned by two or more people, situations can come up when one of the owners wishes to sell the property against the wishes of the other.
The Ontario Partition Act provides a way for joint tenants, tenants in common, or other parties with an interest in any land to request an order from the court for the partition or sale of the land. In the majority of Partition Act cases, the courts are inclined to grant the order that the land be partitioned or sold since it would be unfeasible for the co-owners to be required to continue to hold the property in the face of an ongoing disagreement.
Conversely, the decision of the Ontario Superior Court of Justice in Stothers v. Kazeks, 2023 is an example of a rare situation in which a Partition Act application was refused.
In Stothers, the applicant (Stothers), and the respondent (Kazeks), lived together, in a common law relationship, in a home at 150 King Street in Toronto from 1998 to 2005. The property originally belonged to Kazek’s mother, who then transferred title to herself and her son as joint tenants. Stothers moved in with Kazeks and his mother.
In December 2003, Kazeks’ mother moved out of the home and transferred her interest to her son. Kazeks then transferred his sole interest to himself and Ms. Stothers as tenants in common. However, their amicable co-ownership was short-lived, as their relationship ended in April 2005, and Stothers moved out of the house.
For the next 18 years, Kazeks continued to live in the home and paid all the expenses associated with the house.
Applying to sell after 18 years
In 2023, Stothers brought an application to sell the home because she learned that she had terminal cancer, with a prognosis of only a few months to live, and wanted to get her affairs in order. By the time of the application, Kazeks was 76 years old and had lived in the property for some 40 years.
There was no doubt that the wording of the Partition Act provided Stothers, as a tenant in common, with a prima facie right to the partition and sale of the home. Under section 3, any person with an interest in a property may bring an action or make an application for the partition or sale of that property under the directions of the court, “if such sale is considered by the court to be more advantageous to the parties interested.”
Nevertheless, the common law has recognized that courts have the discretion to refuse such relief in narrow circumstances. The onus is on the party resisting the sale to demonstrate why the court should deny the relief that the applicant seeks. In most cases, it is only where the court finds malice, vexatious intent, or oppression that the respondent will have met their burden to show that the application should be refused.
To demonstrate oppression, a respondent must show that they would suffer more than mere inconvenience and adverse financial consequences from the partition or sale. Some examples of oppression include sales that would require the relocation of a person with disabilities or a home business (like. Barker v. Barker, 2010 ONSC 408 and Mitchell v Leach, 2015 ONSC 6041).
As part of the analysis in determining whether a partition or sale would be oppressive, the courts use a contextual approach and consider the parties’ relationship, their reasonable expectations regarding the home, the nature of the conduct between them and the impact of a court-ordered sale.
Examining the relationship, expectations and intentions
The application judge first looked at the nature of the relationship between the parties. Kazeks and Stothers were in a personal romantic relationship at the time that title was apportioned between them, not a commercial one. The court noted that many situations end up being litigated because people fail to take a commercial approach to their romantic relationships and fail to consider what may happen if the relationship breaks down.
Next, the court considered the reasonable expectations of the parties when creating their respective interests in the property. Stothers was a tenant in common and held a statutory right to compel the sale of the home. However, she had moved out of the home 18 years earlier and had not once paid any of the expenses, or attempted to exercise her right since that time. Kazeks had paid all of the expenses to maintain the property and had not considered that he would suddenly be forced to sell his home many years later.
Furthermore, Kazeks’ evidence was that he had not intended to gift 50% of the home to Stothers and that he was not informed by the law firm that assisted in the transfer of title that the transfer would give her an ownership interest in the property.
What the evidence showed
There was plenty of evidence to show that the forced sale of the property would cause serious hardship to Kazeks not only financially, but also personally and emotionally:
He had osteoarthritis and had suffered from two heart attacks, an aneurysm, and a hip replacement and it would be difficult to relocate to another home.
His doctor, dentist, physiotherapist, and veterinarian were all within walking distance, and his friends and family who helped care for him were in the neighbourhood.
He used approximately 30 per cent of the home as his workspace for his electrician job and was unsure whether he would be able to continue working somewhere else.
He did not have a high income and was still working at the age of 76 just to make ends meet (his annual expenses exceeded his earnings by $18,000 a year).
The house had significant sentimental meaning to him.
As for Stothers’ circumstances, the application judge concluded that it did not appear that she needed the funds from the sale to provide for her immediate health and comfort.
A litigation twist
Stothers and Kazeks were also involved in a concurrent, ongoing, family law proceeding regarding whether Stothers held her interest in the property in trust for him and for related relief. In cases where a partition application is intertwined with other litigation, the courts generally exercise caution so as not to prejudice the rights asserted in the broader litigation.
The court concluded that ordering the sale of the home would cause serious hardship amounting to oppression for Kazeks and dismissed the application.
This decision illustrates the high threshold that must be established to defeat a Partition Act application. Fortunately for Kazeks, he was able to provide sufficient evidence of his personal circumstances to persuade the court that the order sought would be oppressive.

It is currently known that the SARS-CoV-2 virus, the etiological agent of COVID-19, has a great neurotropism, infecting neural cells of the olfactory bulbs and surrounding areas, thus reaching the central nervous system, in addition to other pathways such as hematogenous, conditioning a wide range of neurological symptoms, including anosmia and dysgeusia.
However, there have been disparities in the results, since some study groups have reported that the presence of anosmia with or without dysgeusia is a factor of severity and poor prognosis, while other groups mention the opposite, its presence portends a good prognosis in patients, there have even been systematic reviews and meta-analyses in this regard.,,
Quantitative smell testing demonstrates that decreased smell function (hyposmia), but not always anosmia, is a major marker for SARS-CoV-2 infection and suggests the possibility that smell testing may help, in some cases, to identify COVID-19 patients in need of early treatment or quarantine.
Dysgeusia is a prevalent qualitative gustatory impairment that may affect food intake and quality of life. The facial (VII), glossopharyngeal (IX), and vagus (X) nerves are the three cranial nerves responsible for sensing taste. Typically, dysgeusia is considered a general term for all taste disorders. In addition, dysgeusia may be a symptom of underlying systemic conditions such as diabetes mellitus, chronic kidney disease, respiratory infections (currently includes COVID-19), and nutritional deficiencies.
With COVID-19, the rate of incidence of olfactory dysfunction in patients has been varied from 29.64% to 75.23% and the rate of incidence of taste dysfunction among people can be different from 20.46% to 68.95%.
We present a study in which we found that anosmia was associated with greater severity and poor prognosis, while dysgeusia was associated with less severity and better prognosis.
However, what could be the factors that influence these symptoms to have a positive or negative correlation in severity and prognosis?
The answer probably has several aspects associated with the ecological triad.
| Host Factors|| |
It is mentioned that patients who have risk factors such as obesity, diabetes, or hypertension, as well as primary or secondary immunosuppression, could suffer more severe conditions and favor greater neurotropism; It has also been shown that there are other receptors in the brain in addition to angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE 2) that can act to facilitate the neuroinvasion of SARS-CoV-2, such as the Basigin (BSG), neuropilin-1 (NRP1), transmembrane serine protease 11A (TMPRSS11A), and furin receptors, but the amount of them varies from one individual to another. Other studies that have worked with single-cell sequencing revealed that ACE2 is expressed in supporting cells, stem cells, and perivascular cells, rather than in neurons. These findings suggest that CoV-2 infection of nonneuronal cell types causes anosmia and related disorders in odor perception in COVID-19 patients.,
| Agent Factors (SARS-CoV-2)|| |
Per se, this betacoronavirus has a great affinity for the central nervous system in such a way that it is considered neurotropic, neuroinvasive, and neurovirulent, however, some variants have a greater capacity than others, highlighted in this area the ancestral variant D614G, followed by the Delta variant (B.1.617.2) and finally by Omicron BA1 (B.1.1.529), the latter presenting the least neurotropism in vitro and in vivo studies.
| Environmental Factors|| |
It is mentioned that some geographical regions have favored greater severity and involvement with subsequently increased neurotropism than other regions; Asian regions initially did not report neurological symptoms such as anosmia or dysgeusia, these appeared as the pandemic was conquering European and later American regions with the following globalization of these symptoms; Although other regions such as Iran reported these alterations since the beginning of the pandemic. Sudden onset of olfactory dysfunction was reported in 76.24% of the participations and persistent anosmia in 60.90% since the start of the COVID-19 epidemic. In addition, 80.38% of participants reported concomitant olfactory and gustatory dysfunctions. Factors such as temperature, humidity, and air quality have been identified as facilitators of the transmission of SARS-CoV-2.,
We consider that the conjunction of these factors as a whole is what predisposes to greater or lesser severity of the disease and therefore of neurotropism, and according to these characteristics, symptoms such as anosmia or dysgeusia, among others, can behave as good or bad prognosis in different populations. In the same way, there are racial, genetic, and geographical variations that predispose some populations to have these more entrenched characteristics and that, having a higher incidence of these symptoms, act as severity factors.

JCS Student David Pickart-Jain Killed In Eureka Car Collision
Kevin L. Hoover
EUREKA – A Jacoby Creek School eighth grader was killed Saturday night, March 9 in a vehicle vs. pedestrian accident in Eureka.
According to the Eureka Police Department, at 10:16 p.m. a report was recived of a collision at the intersection of Carson and J streets. Arriving officers located teenager David Pickart-Jain in the roadway. He had been hit by a passing vehicle.
Jain suffered life-threatening injuries, and Humboldt Bay Firefighters and City Ambulance personnel arrived shortly. Pickart-Jain was quickly transported to St. Joseph Hospital for treatment of his injuries. Due to the extent of his injuries, he was flown out of the area for a higher level of care shortly thereafter.
On the morning of Sunday, March 10, EPD was notified that Pickart-Jain had succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced dead.
EPD said witnesses observed Pickart-Jain standing stationary in the intersection, in the southbound lane of J Street outside a crosswalk, and that he was looking down at his cellular phone when he was hit. There was no immediate indication of intoxication or impairment on the part of either the driver or the pedestrian.
Jacoby Creek School Superintendent/Principal Catherine Stone said Pickart-Jain was a “stellar” student, “He was genuinely friendly to everyone,” Stone said. “He was really liked by all the kids and teachers.”
Stone said the tragedy has had a “ripple effect” throughout the whole school. Pickart-Jain had served as a mentor or “buddy” to a kindergarten student, and another student he had mentored as a kindergartner is now a second grader.
Stone said Pickart-Jain was with other students, the group having attended a birthday party. Though EPD said Pickart-Jain was outside the crosswalk, Stone said the students observed him within the crosswalk area.
EPD’s report that Pickart-Jain was distracted by a cell phone may or may not be something that the school addresses with students, as it may not require further emphasis. “While it could be a teachable moment, it could not have escaped their notice,” Stone said. “We’re just trying to get through the grief.”
To help, a crisis team from the Humboldt County Office of Education was working with students at the school on Monday. A dozen or so personnel, including a school psychologist and grief counselors, were on hand to help the students through the loss.
“A really personal and horrific thing has happened, and it’s going to be with us forever,” Stone said.
Said an EPD press release: “The Eureka Police Department would like to remind the public that cell phone distraction is not confined to only motorists, but applies to everyone. Inattention appears to have played a major role in this horribly tragic collision that resulted in the loss of a very young life. This tragedy not only affects those close to the juvenile but the motorist as well. It also has affected those that responded to the scene and those that are investigating it.”
Any witnesses to the collision are asked to call Traffic Officers Greg Hill at (707) 441-4342 or Tim Jones at (707) 441-4109.

- Abu Dhabi Grand Prix - Qualifying
Webber snatches Abu Dhabi pole from Vettel
Mark Webber snatched pole position from team-mate Sebastian Vettel at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, beating him on the final run in Q3 by over a tenth of a second.
Vettel was slower than his team-mate in Q1 and Q2 but on his first run in Q3 looked as though he had found enough of an advantage to secure pole position. However, Webber managed a 1:39.957 on his final lap while Vettel failed to improve after lacklustre first and second sectors.
In Q1 and Q2 it looked as though Mercedes might mount a challenge but Nico Rosberg was nearly 0.5s shy of Webber in Q3 and Hamilton spun off on his final attempt, saying after the session that something broke on his car. Hamilton will still start fourth ahead of Nico Hulkenberg in fifth. Kimi Raikkonen had qualified fifth but will now start from the back of the grid after he was excluded due to his his car failing a floor deflection test following damage from a kerb. Romain Grosjean was over 0.4s off the time set by his Lotus team-mate Raikkonen but will now start sixth in front of Felipe Massa, Sergio Perez and Toro Rosso's Daniel Ricciardo.
After struggling all weekend, Fernando Alonso fell a tenth short of the cut off for Q3, but will still start tenth due to Raikkonen's penalty. He made a mistake on his first lap on fresh soft tyres and then tried again but fell short in the final sector, when the tyres were past their best. Paul di Resta and Jenson Button also missed out while Jean-Eric Vergne beat the two Williamses to 13th place.
Esteban Gutierrez and Adrian Sutil were the two midfield casualties in Q1 as both set times roughly 0.4s off their team-mate and paid for it with an early bath ahead of Q2. After showing strong pace in practice, Gutierrez will have been especially disappointed to miss the cut and will start 16th ahead of Sutil. Giedo van der Garde was fastest of the backmarkers ahead of Jules Bianchi, Charles Pic and Max Chilton. Bianchi also has a penalty for a gearbox change but will still start ahead of Raikkonen.


Apple and Google on Wednesday released the first version of exposure notification (earlier called contact tracing) Application Programming Interface (API) to select developers associated with public health authorities (PHAs) around the world.
This is a developer-focused release and is consistent with both the companies deliver beta copies of their software at the same time.
Aimed at helping developers begin testing in anticipation of the API’s release in mid-May, another goal of the release is to encourage feedback that will help improve the various features, the tech giants said in a statement.
“Collaboration and transparency have been two key principles of the project for both companies. Additional details will be announced on Friday,” they added.
Apple CEO Tim Cook told the European Union (EU) Commissioner Thierry Breton last week that the API would arrive shortly.
On April 10, Google and Apple announced a joint effort to enable the use of Bluetooth technology to help governments and health agencies reduce the spread of Covid-19 through contact tracing, with user privacy and security core to the design.
Amid the growing debate over privacy and security around contact tracing technology, the tech giant last week announced new updates to allay such fears, saying the Bluetooth-driven exposure notification system to enable iOS and Android phones trace the spread of coronavirus is completely safe.
Apple and Google representatives said they are encrypting metadata associated with Bluetooth. The tech giants said that the ‘Exposure Notification Bluetooth Specification’ does not use location for proximity detection.
It strictly uses Bluetooth beaconing to detect proximity.
Google and Apple have already released documentation on the Bluetooth and cryptography specifications as well as an API framework.
In addition, Apple is releasing Beta 3 of iOS 13.5, the first pre-release version of iOS to contain the code needed to run apps built using the exposure notification API.
Similarly, Google has delivered its beta Google Play Services update with the exposure notification API and the accompanying SDK privately to select developers who can begin testing using Android Developer Studio.
On Friday, both companies will release additional information including sample code to aid developers in understanding how the exposure notification system will operate, and specific criteria for developing apps.
Recently, Britain declined to use the Apple-Google framework API to build its contact tracing app. The country’s National health organisation’s digital arm in reportedly creating a centralised app. The framework proposed by Apple and Google is a decentralised one, meaning that the tracking information will not be stored in a central server. NHSX, in a blog over the weekend, said that it has prioritised security and privacy in all stages of the app’s development, starting with the initial design, and user testing.
In retrospective, public-health authorities across countries believe that improved tracking of infected people and their contacts could slow the rate of pandemic spread.
In light of this, Apple and Google decided to come together in building tools that could help authorities build contact tracing apps, which shall be used in the operating systems of the billions of iPhones and Android devices around the world.
Here is how the contact tracing tech work
- After downloading the public health app, the user will have to permit it to collect anonymous data
- When he/she meets a person, a record will be made
- If a person updates his/her status as Covid-19 +ve, the app shall update data on the cloud
- Other people’s app will check if they had met any Covid-19 +ve person
- If a match is found, the user will be alerted

WE ARE SPARTA: In Michigan, Brandon Howell noted workers at Michigan State Univ.'s Spartan Stadium next week "will begin installing steel framework for the two-story, 50,000-square-foot addition" to the north end zone. MSU Deputy AD Greg Ianni said that the project is "several days ahead of schedule." MSU broke ground on the $24.5M project in late July. The school contracted architecture firm Integrated Design Solutions and construction company Barton Malow for the project," which is "slated for completion" in July '14 (MLIVE.com, 10/31).
BEAR DOWN: In San Antonio, Tim Griffin noted the tarp in the south end zone at Baylor Univ.'s Floyd Casey Stadium "hasn’t been removed very often and has become a symbol about how Baylor can’t fill their own home stadium." But Baylor officials Wednesday announced that the tarp "will be pulled with seating in the open end zone for the pivotal game" against the Univ. of Oklahoma on Nov. 9. They also said that the tarp "would be removed" for the season-ending game against the Univ. of Texas on Dec. 7. Baylor in its 64th and final season of play at Floyd Casey Stadium has "averaged 43,875 fans for its first five home games of the 2013 season, which is more than 2,500 ahead of the 2011 school-record average of 41,368" (MYSANANTONIO.com, 10/30).


No positive cases of the novel coronavirus have been reported in Andhra Pradesh, the state Medical and Health Department said on Friday. Of the 24 samples that were sent for examination, 20 tested negative while result of the remaining four was awaited, it said in a bulletin.
"We have strengthened the surveillance for containment, control and prevention of COVID-19. Till date 361 passengers from COVID19-affected countries have been identified and placed under surveillance," Special Chief Secretary (Health) K S Jawahar Reddy said.
Of the 361, 130 people are under home isolation and 218 people completed the 28 days observation period.
Another 13 passengers are in hospital admission and are stable, according to the Special Chief Secretary.
The state government constituted as a nine-member high-level committee, headed by the Special Chief Secretary, to take decisions on procurement and logistic issues relating to containment and surveillance of COVID-19.
The government also notified the district Collectors as nodal officers for taking measures to contain the deadly virus outbreak in the respective districts.

Book of the week | Spirits Rebellious
Spirits Rebellious is a collection of three short stories where the author talks of his experiences while interacting with various individuals.Updated: Jan 14, 2006 15:26 IST
Author: Kahlil Gibran
• Price — Rs 35
• Publication — UBS Publishers
Miserable is the man who loves a woman and takes her for a wife, pouring at her feet the sweat of his skin, the blood of his body and the life of his heart.
Spirits Rebellious is a collection of three short stories where the author talks of his experiences while interacting with various individuals. The first one, ‘Madame Rose Hanie’, is a third person perspective of the ‘spirits’; the spirits of Hanie and her estranged husband Rashid Bey Namaan and the world that yearns to be liberated. Hanie has long since realised that there is something missing in her life. She is an elite married to a rich man, but there is a void inside her that she cannot define. The strange way in which the world outside lives like a zombie also haunts her. Beautifully, Gibran narrates his meetings with Hanie. The unlighted face looking downward (Past) and the sunlight adding to the glow (present). Hanie has realised what she wants, even if that means giving up all the luxuries and riches she is showered with. Spirits speak.
‘The cry of the graves’, has the author witnessing a court hearing on a day. Three sinisters are punished for crimes that the Emir, the judge finds intolerable. Brutal and inhuman are the judgments that the Emir passes. There is no room for any defence. As Gibran visits their graves he comes to know the real stories and questions arise. Spirits Question.
‘Kahlil the heretic’ documents the story of Sheik Abbas, who was looked upon as a prince by the people of a solitary village in North Lebanon. A terrible case grips him and the village, and Sheik chooses Khalil as his jury. And what follows is an incident that is brutally violent. Spirits Cry.
The three stories urge the reader to look within. There are questions that are in front of us and we overlook them. There are situations when we aren’t allowed to question, prohibited to live the way we think from the heart. There are souls in every one of us that are still fighting to come out in their true form. But what do they say and what are they? Spirits Rebellious!

United Nations, New York Headquarter, 6 February 2014
Professor Ocampo gave the first presentation, in which he spoke about income inequalities throughout the world. Inequality has two dimensions, inequality among countries, and inequality inside countries. Historically, free markets have allowed wealth inequalities to rise, and the state has historically stepped in to address this problem. In countries where the state hasn’t played that role, inequalities are very high. Inequality in that sense, is a choice of society: they can change the inequality if they adopt the correct changes.
Mr. Moreno spoke next and said that we rarely talk about inequalities in ability, and that it is something that needs to be addressed when we discuss development. He called on countries to create a policy that will include those with disabilities and allow them to participate socially, politically, and economically on the same level as everyone else. Mr. Moreno said that we cannot attain any goal unless we think holistically.
Ms. Ameline was the final presenter, and she spoke about discrimination against women. She said that sustainable development will continue to be a dream unless the rights of women are realized. She stressed the importance of progress indicators by statistically analyzing the measurable impacts that are being made over time.
The representatives of Morocco, Bolivia, Peru and Mexico agreed that we should eradicate material poverty, but also spiritual poverty, such as racism, individualism, ageism, and others. We cannot work on the SDGs without acknowledging the human dimension. The representative of Japan asked, “What can the United Nations, through the SDG’s, do to change the inequalities in society, if the society has chosen those inequalities?” The representative of Indonesia was concerned about the kinds of domestic economic policy that can be used to address income inequality.
The floor was then opened for a general discussion. Benin said that although the world target for poverty reduction has been reached, 49% of the population of the LDCs still live in extreme poverty, lacking access to critical education, health and transportation infrastructure. Guinea said that there needs to be a framework that addresses inequalities in governance, wealth, gender, and education.
The executive director of the ITC, the International Trade Commission was given the floor, sharing that we need to facilitate the entrance of women into the workplace more than we already. Women are projected to be 30% of the workforce by 2020, and they reinvest 90% of their earnings back into their families, which improves quality of life. Therefore, the UN needs to craft a standalone goal relating to women’s rights and women’s empowerment.
Meeting Title: Sixth meeting of the Eighth Session of the General Assembly Open Working Group on Sustainable Development Goals

Yet another shoe has dropped in the scandal rocking Speaker John Boehner’s ally, House Majority Whip Steve Scalise. Nearly 20 years ago, when he was an up-and-coming politician, he reportedly told a reporter that he’s like “David Duke without the baggage.”
“This is what I remember about the first time I met Steve Scalise nearly 20 years ago: He told me he was like David Duke without the baggage,” Stephanie Grace, a longtime reporter on Louisiana politics, writes in the liberal New Orleans Advocate.
“I was a new reporter covering Jefferson Parish, and Scalise, now the majority whip in the U.S. House of Representatives, was just starting out in the Louisiana Legislature (I’m going from memory, but the exchange obviously stuck with me),” Grace writes.
Scalise spokespersons Moira Bagley and Thomas Tatum did not immediately respond to a request for comment in response to Grace’s article.
Scalise has desperately tried to separate himself from Duke in recent days, but this column from Grace indicates that Scalise attempted to portray himself along the same lines as Duke politically in his early days on the campaign trail to garner support.
“The ‘baggage,’ of course, was Duke’s past, his racist and anti-Semitic views and his former role as a KKK grand wizard,” Grace writes. “Scalise disavowed Duke then, as he did once again this week, when blogger Lamar White Jr. revealed that Scalise had spoken in 2002 at a meeting hosted by a Duke-founded white nationalist group. But the other part of the sentence, the part about their similarity, was the rub. Scalise may have been naïve about how to express himself to a newcomer, but he was already a savvy politician who knew that, even though Duke had lost the governor’s race a few years earlier, Duke voters were still around. And those Duke voters also were potential Scalise voters.”
After word of the 2002 speech broke, Speaker Boehner and House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy announced their support for Scalise. They argued that it was an isolated incident and a moment of bad judgment.
But since then, Scalise’s longtime ties to Duke’s top political hand Kenneth Knight—including Knight’s $1,000 donation to Scalise’s 2008 U.S. congressional campaign, Knight’s phone banking for Scalise’s U.S. House campaign that year and a close political relationship—have emerged, painting a picture of poor judgment by a career politician. Neither Scalise’s statements about this scandal, nor Boehner’s or McCarthy’s, have addressed Scalise’s longtime ties with Knight or the Duke campaign manager’s work for his political campaigns.
Scalise is facing calls for his resignation of his GOP leadership position from the editorial boards of USA Today and the Chicago Tribune, and the scandal about his longtime ties to Duke and Duke’s circles has rocked Scalise, putting his entire political career in jeopardy.
Scalise has worked the phones in Congress, calling members throughout his party to urge them to support him. A former chairman of the Republican Study Committee (RSC), Scalise has gotten some top Republicans and even some conservatives to back him up.
But a key GOP bloc Scalise especially needs to keep on his side is conservatives in the House. A senior House GOP aide tells Breitbart News that Scalise’s unflagging work on Boehner’s behalf will come back to bite him, as the conservatives won’t have his back. Scalise, as RSC chairman, actually fired the group’s longtime executive director Paul Teller—a conservative respected movement-wide. Teller has since become chief of staff to Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX). Couple that with Scalise’s recent work on behalf of President Barack Obama’s executive amnesty—Scalise whipped votes in favor of the 1,774-page, $1.1 trillion so-called “cromnibus” spending bill—and Scalise is going to be hard-pressed to get public support from conservative members.
“Steve’s pattern is pure political expediency; do what it takes to get to the top,” the GOP aide said in an email:
It’s what Dems do all the time: use people to get power. That’s why you do something so foolish as outreach to known racists to win their vote. That’s why you gut the conservative core from the Republican Study Committee to impress Boehner and the rest of leadership. That’s why you go against the vast majority of your constituents and refuse to fight the president’s amnesty when the opportunity is there. There’s very little room for principles, especially conservative ones, when your driving force is personal ambition. The real question is whether conservatives in the House Republican Conference will continue to tolerate this brand of leadership.

Two die at football stadium stampede during Asian final
TWO football fans were killed and a young boy was fighting for his life after a when thousands of fans crowded into a Jakarta stadium during the Southeast Asian Games football final between Indonesia and Malaysia last night..
All 88,000 tickets at the huge Gelora Bung Karno stadium had been sold for the game between the hosts and their rivals Malaysia.
Tens of thousands ticket-less fans, hoping to get a ticket, or simply gain entry, gathered outside.
The 5,000 police on duty were unable to control the crowd when a gate was momentarily opened.
There was a rush to get in.
"The two victims died when the stadium doors at section 15 opened and everyone rushed in," said Jakarta city police spokesman Baharudin Djafar.
"One of the bodies was identified and has been returned to his family, while the other is still at the morgue.
"Several others were taken to hospital with minor injuries, but one young boy slipped into a coma."
In the chaos, the bodies of the two men trampled to death - both wearing the Indonesian team's jersey - could not be immediately evacuated, police said.
Hundreds of people had been packed tight against the ticket barriers while fans inside the stadium were forced to crouch in aisles and walkways, witnesses said.

This paper presents a new method to measure the voltage across the submodule (SM) capacitors in a modular multilevel converter (MMC). The proposed technique requires only one voltage sensor per arm. This reduces the number of sensors required compared to conventional sensor-based methods. Therefore, the cost and complexity of the system are reduced, which in turn improves the converter’s overall reliability. The proposed method employs an exponentially weighted recursive least square (ERLS) algorithm to estimate the SM capacitor voltages through the measured total arm voltage and the switching patterns of each SM. There is thus no need for extra sensors to measure these control signals as they are directly provided from the controller. The robustness of the proposed method is confirmed via introducing deviations for the capacitance values, dynamic load changes, DC voltage change and start-up transient condition. Simulation and experimentally validated results based on a single-phase MMC show the effectiveness of the proposed method in both, steady-state and dynamic operations.

The 104,000-square-foot FedEx Ship Center and warehouse at 1501 N. Renaissance Blvd. NE has been sold.
The Sperry Van Ness/Walt Arnold Commercial Brokerage team consisting of senior advisers Patti Peixotto, Joel T. White and Hunter Greene closed the deal last month. The investment specialists trio said it is the first big deal they’ve closed since leaving the New Mexico office of CBRE in the summer.
Terms of the sale were not disclosed, but White confirmed that it was a multimillion-dollar purchase. White said FedEx has been operating at the location since the late 1990s.
The previous owners, Tierra Renaissance LLC, sold it to an out-of-state investor from the Midwest, which the Sperry Van Ness team represented. They declined to disclose the name of the investor.
“They owned it for a long time and were trying to reallocate capital into other investments,” Greene said of the previous owners.
Greene said the buyers had been “circulating in the Albuquerque market” and the investment team had worked with them in the past.
White said it was all about having a solid tenant and the right location.
“After having meetings with FedEx officials [the buyer] was confident with the tenant and happy with the facility,” he said.
Activity in the area includes Albuquerque’s Dreamstyle Remodeling breaking ground in October on a new, $4.5 million showroom/office building next to Sportsman’s Warehouse.
The Sperry Van Ness team is also marketing the massive 332,000-square-foot Albuquerque Office Complex for $9.3 million. The 22-acre complex has operated as the headquarters for Presbyterian Healthcare Services, which is eventually moving to new digs in the North I-25 corridor. Greene said the complex site has seen some offers.
