Manchester United legend Paul Scholes has claimed just one member of Ralf Rangnick’s squad is good enough to make it into either Liverpool or Man City’s starting lineups
Paul Scholes has claimed Paul Pogba is the only member of the current Manchester United squad that could force his way into Liverpool or Manchester City ’s starting XIs.
The 28-year-old is going into the final throes of his United contract and is set to become a free agent at the end of the season.
Interim boss Ralf Rangnick is determined to keep the enigmatic Frenchman in the line-up however, urging him to use the remaining weeks as a chance to put himself in the shop window.
Pogba missed a glut over fixtures over the festive period with an injury, but following his return in January, he has put together a good run of form.
HAVE YOUR SAY! Should Man Utd be doing more to keep Paul Pogba at Old Trafford? Let us know in the comments
Ash Donelon/Manchester United via Getty Images)
Against Leeds United on Sunday, the club’s record signing put in a virtuoso first-half display, before being withdrawn shortly after the hour mark when he started to flag.
But it was the kind of performance which reminded just why United were happy to dish out £89million to acquire his services back in 2016.
Such is the gulf between United and their biggest rivals City and Liverpool, few could argue that the Red Devils would be well represented in a combined XI involving either side.
But legendary United midfielder Scholes believes that on his day, Pogba is capable of walking into any Premier League side – something which could yet become a reality when he picks his next destination.
Asked which United players would get into the top two’s starting XIs, Scholes told Premier League Productions: “Pogba in his best form would. He is indicative of what the club are doing. Every player is inconsistent.
“People running the club are inconsistent in what they are doing.
“I have been a big critic of Paul, but if you are an opposing player going to Old Trafford and you are playing against Fred and [Scott] McTominay ‘all day long’.
“Now, you don’t know what you are going to get with Paul. But when he is on his game, he is brilliant.
“But when he isn’t, then against your Liverpool and Man City’s, you might struggle in them areas. Where do Man United go next year to replace him?”
@btsportfootball / Twitter)
Scholes’ verdict marks a decided change of tact from his scathing verdict on the same player earlier this season.
Following the 2-2 draw with Atalanta back in November, Scholes said Pogba was too often “away with fairies” and doubted he would ever correct that flaw in his game.
“He needs somebody talking to him all the time, someone there who he totally respects and is experienced,” Scholes told BT Sport.
“He is a really experienced player, but he will get to 35 and will be doing the same stupid stuff, stud-rolling the ball – and people know it.
“The biggest thing with the player is his concentration – he goes away with the fairies sometimes.”


City releases updated greenhouse gas inventory report
Greenhouse gas emissions from the City of Beacon’s operations fell 9.8 percent between 2019 and 2021, according to an updated greenhouse gas inventory released Jan. 5.
It’s the fourth inventory of the production of greenhouse gas, which contributes to global warming, released by the city; previous reports tallied emissions in 2012, 2018 and 2019. The report is posted at bit.ly/BeaconGHG21.
The total of estimated carbon-dioxide equivalent emissions, or CO2e, not including the capped landfill at Dennings Point, was 1,943 metric tons, the equivalent of driving a gas-powered passenger car for 4.9 million miles. The landfill is the site of the city’s solar panel array, which offset 341 of those metric tons.
This year’s inventory is the first to include methane being released by the capped landfill, which was closed in 1968. The report estimates that the landfill released 1,138 metric tons of CO2e in 2021, making it the city’s biggest emitter, by far. Methane is a much more potent greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide, although it breaks down much more quickly. As the waste in the landfill continues to erode, the amount of methane emitted will slowly decrease.
Other than the landfill, the city’s biggest emitters are its facilities that treat drinking water and wastewater, its vehicle fleet and municipal buildings.
The city has made several changes since 2021 that should decrease its greenhouse-gas emissions even further, including the introduction of a drop-off composting program and the Police Department replacing five vehicles with electric or hybrid vehicles, with three more patrol vehicles expected in 2025.
Beacon’s new fire station, now under construction, will be all-electric with geothermal heating and cooling. The city is also planning a solar array at the Highway Garage.
The report suggests that the city should improve its record-keeping of fuel and energy usage, partly because the 2024 report was hampered by incomplete data from Central Hudson that required estimates. It also recommends that the city examine how the emissions from the capped landfill could be reduced further.

DES MOINES, Iowa — Covid-19 sent a thunderous blow to the Tejeda family. “All those aches turned the skin, like I was sunburned I couldn’t tolerate my clothes it was horrible,” said German Tejada who co-owns Tamale’s Industry, a Mexican restaurant inside Merle Hay Mall, with his wife Maria Angelica Tejeda.
In early November German could barely put on his own clothes when he knew something was wrong. “Just to get my pants up, every movement was really hard to do because it was taking my breath away. I thought I was going to faint,” said German.
German checked into Iowa Lutheran Hospital where he tested positive for Covid-19 along with his wife Maria Angelica and five of their six children forcing Tamales Industry to close. “We were closed on November 6th all the way to December 2nd,” German said.
While the others didn’t require hospital care German spent five days in the hospital with dangerously low oxygen levels. German said, “With lower than 80% so I couldn’t even talk.”
The nearly month-long closure has been heartbreaking. Speaking of the restaurant German said, “I have six children but this is my seventh child.”
Since March, German estimates sales are down fifty percent. The Tejedas have been unable to pay a full rent payment to the mall since March. “That’s one thing that really hurting a lot,” German said.
Numerous Covid-19 relief programs sent them rejection letters. “They keep asking about how many employees do you have and we don’t have employees so we couldn’t pass that,” said German.
Hoping to ease the burden, the family created a GoFundMe account that has since generated nearly $10,000 to keep the Tejeda family’s life’s work alive. German said, “I can extend my chances to survive here at the mall.”
The Tejedas aren’t sure when normalcy will return. “I still have problems getting my breath back to normal,” said German. Neither he nor his wife have their full sense of smell and taste back after overcoming the coronavirus. They hope others see their adversity as a way for Iowans to draw on one another for strength. “For the people who are dying or going through more difficult things than I went through we need to be thinking as a community,” said German.
Tamale’s Industry is open Monday-Saturday 11 am-7 pm and on Sunday from 12 pm-5 pm.

Jonathan Ashley is a freelance journalist and book dealer living in Lexington, KY. His work has appeared in Crime Factory, A Twist of Noir, LEO Weekly, Kentucky Magazine and Yellow Mama. The Cost of Doing Business, which Frank Bill calls "one black tar mind-fuck-ride of a novel", is out now from 280 Steps in paperback and e-formats.
OBAAT: Tell us about The Cost of Doing Business.
Jonathan Ashley: It is a dark comedy about a person's entry into the drug world. Jon Catlett, a misanthropic literary obsessive, is facing the loss of the only thing in the world he loves; his used bookstore. He has several other problems, the least of which are his love affair with a bi-polar femme fatale heiress to a thriving northern steel company, or the exponentially growing opiate habit he has developed. When Jon, during a deal gone wrong, accidentally kills a fellow drug addict, getting away with murder turns out to be the least of his worries. The steps he and Paul, the obsessive-compulsive manager of Jon's store, must take to cover up the killing result in the two cornering Louisville’s blossoming heroin trade.
OBAAT: Where did you get this idea, and what made it worth developing for you? (Notice I didn’t ask “Where do you get your ideas?” I was careful to ask where you got this idea.)
JA: I owned a bookstore in Louisville, actually at the same exact location as described in the novel. I’d also had struggled with different addictions in my life and as a result came face to face with some pretty scary operators. Around that time, I felt very lost and suffered from the most paralyzing depression I’d ever known. I hated everything I wrote. I was in an MFA program where they thought crime writers lesser artists. Finally, something clicked. I was living a crime novel with my deviant behavior and ties to the local drug trade. So, I just started writing, a vague idea about a junkie book dealer who replaces his favorite high with that of power through importing mass quantities of heroin, the city’s now most popular drug. The rest of the work seemed to take care of itself.
OBAAT: How long did it take to write The Cost of Doing Business, start to finish?
JA: I wrote the first draft in two months but, when all editing and re-structuring ceased, I’d spent about a year on the project.
OBAAT: What’s the back story on the main character or characters?
JA: Jon is your classic underachiever. Despite his character faults, his failures, and his horrid past, he still believes he’s too smart to be struggling financially, running a failing used bookstore. He feels undiscovered for his genius, underutilized, and, in all things, that everyone should appreciate him more. He is the most ungrateful character I have ever written. Yet, I try to make the audience understand how he has gotten by in life, sometimes very successfully. Therein comes his charm, humor, and, strangely, an almost unreasonable sense of loyalty and justice.
OBAAT: In what time and place is The Cost of Doing Business set? How important is the setting to the book as a whole?
JA: It’s a modern novel set in Louisville, KY. I think the place is very important in regards to the story and characters. While a culturally rich Southern city – Southern in that it’s far below the Mason-Dixon line - Louisville is also a poor city full of people trying to just get by another day. The rift between the poor and the ridiculously rich is enormous. The city is blatantly segregated. And lately, a heroin problem worse than some mega-cities has developed. It’s a perfect place for Jon and Paul to proceed along their misadventures. I’ve lived a lot of places, and maybe it’s because of the city’s strange mix of hillbilly and cosmopolitan culture, but I’ve never met more interesting people in one place than in Louisville.
OBAAT: How did The Cost of Doing Business come to be published?
JA: I sent it to several agents who either responded with form letters or pointed out that the novel didn’t seem to fit anywhere. It had a strange mix of black humor, social commentary, violence, with a nearly conventional crime story woven in. I did little to adjust to these agents’ parameter or to try and give them what they wanted because their response was exactly what I wanted. I didn’t want to write your grandpa’s crime novel. I wanted to write one that deals with real people making hard choices in the face of impossible financial situations, or because of their own demons. Then 280 Steps accepted the work and asked for a sequel.
OBAAT: What kinds of stories do you like to read? Who are your favorite authors, in or out of that area?
JA: John Cheever. I recommend his collected stories to anyone who wants to learn how to write and to possibly publish. Dashiell Hammett was writing before and influenced Earnest Hemingway in that clipped, no-words-wasted style that Hemingway made famous. Truth was, he stole it from the best crime novelist every to live. Elmore Leonard will also school you on how to put a story together. Dennis Lehane, George Pelecanos, and Richard Price have made the undeniable connection in their respective works between crime, class and poverty. They’re the game changers. Then there’s the classics. Lolita, Deliverance, A Fan’s Notes, A Confederacy Of Dunces – those to name a few are books every writer should not just read, but study.
OBAAT: Who are your greatest influences?
JA: Jon Kennedy Toole. Frederick Exley. Lawrence Durrell. James Crumley. Hammett. Charles Willeford, Elmore Leonard. David Goodis.
OBAAT: Do you outline or fly by the seat of you pants? Do you even wear pants when you write?
JA: I wear a robe, smoke a cigar, and let the robe hang open in case anyone tries to interrupt my writing time. I also keep the office land-mined and only I have the map that can lead a person safely in our out of my office.
If I think of a scene that will come later in the novel, or even say, halfway through the novel, the entire second act comes to me, I’ll jot that down. But I have never plotted one from beginning to end without first writing and letting the characters tell me where they might want to go.
OBAAT: Give us an idea of your process. Do you edit as you go? Throw anything into a first draft knowing the hard work is in the revisions? Something in between?
JA: I treat each draft equally. That way if I am killed in a home invasion and can save it to my email before I die, I can say I was doing my best work before I bleed out. I usually write a few pages, then go back and edit them half to death. Then I repeat that process until tea-time. Just kidding. I don’t have tea-time. I just mainline the caffeine right between my toes.
OBAAT: If you could give a novice writer a single piece of advice, what would it be?
JA: Write your ass off for at least an hour a day. Read what you wrote. Make the corrections. Then put it away and do not think about it until it’s time for you to return to the desk the next day. Write well everyday. Take care of your sentences and your sentences will take care of you. I have learned this lesson the hard way, trust me.
OBAAT: Favorite activity when you’re not reading or writing.
JA: Swimming laps. Walking my dog. Teaching if I have a class at the time. I also write political pieces for a local magazine and sell used/rare books on the internet. For a writer, I’m a fairly busy dude.
OBAAT: Which do you take to bed at night, the money earned or the good review?
JA: Neither. I take with me the comfort that I worked again that day. I was never a disciplined man. But I have made myself one when it comes to writing. Money comes and goes. Praises turn cruel. But the only person that can stop me from is me.
OBAAT: Would you stop writing if someone paid you enough money so you’d never have to work again, on the condition you could also never write again?
JA: I’d take the money, then move to a country that does not extradite and keep writing anyway.
OBAAT: If you were just starting out, which would you prefer: 1. Form your own indie publishing house and put your work out in paper and e-book yourself? 2. Go with a small or medium traditional house that offers very little or no advance, a royalty that is only a fraction of what you'd get on your own, and also makes no promise of any type of publicity push, keeping in mind that you also will lose the publishing rights for a period, sometimes indefinitely? 3. Go with a Big Six or legacy publisher that offers a larger advance, legitimate review possibilities, entrance to industry literary awards, and exposure on the shelves of brick and mortar stores. Pick one and say why.
JA: I would go with someone like 280 Steps. They're getting great readings for me. Reviews I wouldn’t have dreamt of. The cover is cool. And they maintain an honest, consistent working relationship with me, always open-minded as to possibilities of exposure and higher sale volume. I don’t know that I would make any kind of change right now, knowing what I do of the publishing industry. I guess it would depend on the book I was working on and whatever possible offer an outside publisher might make. For right now though, I am proud that my first novels will be released with powerful support and backing of 280 Steps.
OBAAT: Beer, mixed drinks, or hard liquor?
JA: No thanks. I’m allergic. They make me break out in warrants and handcuffs. Also, I may have to work in a few months and drinking, for me, can ruin even commitments far into the future. It’s like the domino effect.
OBAAT: Baseball or football?
JA: Football. People are more likely to get seriously hurt.
OBAAT: What question have you always wanted an interviewer to ask, but they never do?
JA: Have you ever killed a man? Say a drifter you thought no one would miss just for shits and gigs or maybe a more sexual MO?
OBAAT: What’s the answer?
JA: That’s a fucked up question, man I’m not even going to dignify that with a response. You’re sick. You’re sick and you need to seek serious psychiatric treatment and bath in Holy Water for about a year.
OBAAT: What are you working on now?
JA: The Wrong Business – this is the tentative title for the sequel. It brings the rowdy. Ups all antes and the stakes are much higher, as in all good sequels.

A new type of energy meter used in concentrating solar cookers on the Argentinean Altiplano is described. The meters are used to quantify CO2 savings and the user acceptance. The installed meters measure the amount of energy that enters the solar cooker within a certain angle of acceptance. Only the direct fraction of the incoming sun light is measured. The acceptance angle of the metering device is adapted to the type of solar cooker and size of the cooking pot. The use of the energy meters gives valuable data on the particular use of each solar cooker. - text taken from paper

Marking 25 years of ISO 14001
ISO 14001 is the world’s most popular environmental standard with nearly 350,000 certifications and it’s been around since 1996…. indeed this is the year I started working in environmental management.
As you know I’m a great advocate of ISO 14001 – it provides the best framework for understanding and managing your environmental impacts, risks and opportunities.
The webinar will cover the standard’s impact since 1996, but more importantly look forward to how ISO 14001 is going to help organisations tackle the future challenges of environmental management.
I am joining a great panel of expert speakers. I will talk about the role of ISO 14001 in tackling climate change – a particularly relevant topic given the widespread interest in Net Zero nowadays.
Monday 1st November 1-3pm (UK time).

The future of mobility is certainly going to be electric cars. This decade seems to be developing into a turning point in the history of the automobile industry. Tech companies may not be heavily invested in the electric car market right now but they do realize the potential. Big brands such as Apple, Sony, and Xiaomi are looking to diversify their portfolio and have made substantial investments already.
It is not going to be an easy task for these companies to establish themselves in a market as tough as the automobile sector. However, their expertise with batteries and technology does give them a fighting chance against legacy brands in the sector. Here are the biggest brands that are already invested in the electric vehicle ecosystem:

What is being preached:
Behind every successful man, is a woman.
What is being followed:
Behind every man who is a suspected criminal, is a woman.
Well, the latter holds true in the recent Raj Kundra pornography case. Shilpa Shetty’s husband was arrested by the Mumbai Police on July 19 for allegedly making porn films and releasing them on apps. Ever since the news of his arrest broke, people started jumping to conclusions and blaming Shilpa for his alleged crimes. There have been several memes on her and she has been subjected to a lot of trolling. It just proves how, the society at large, reeks of misogyny and quick to point fingers at a woman. The case is still being investigated, but it seems Raj and Shilpa have already been proven guilty.
In the garb of “jokes”, Shilpa was questioned about how she promoted the idea of physical and mental well-being by advocating for yoga while her husband was allegedly involved in illegal activities.
Shilpa’s case is not the only one. Recently, Fatima Sana Sheikh was heavily trolled. Reason? People thought she was the reason behind Aamir Khan and Kiran Rao’s divorce. Last year, Rhea Chakraborty was targeted for allegedly being the reason behind Sushant Singh Rajput’s death. She was also alleged of giving drugs to Sushant and using his money. One can’t forget the countless times she was hounded by the media. They even reached the building in which she stayed.
It seems we love to hate women and are quick to slam them left, right and centre. This is just pathetic and needs to be stopped. And it’s an uphill task. For starters, feminism must be introduced as a school subject. Children should be taught that it is not just for the girls and women but a society as a whole. At the right age, children should know what is right and what isn’t and how to behave with people regardless of their gender. In this way, we can have a better set of people from the coming generations. Slut-shaming should stop along with sexist jokes, which seem harmless but leads to dire consequences.
We are not saying that women can’t be guilty. They sure can. But please let the investigation take its due course. It’s innocent until proven guilty, not the other way round.

The Great Ukrainian wall
Related news article: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/new-iron-curtains-motivated-by-fear-of-putin-islamists-and-immigration-walls-are-being-built-across-eastern-europe-10205252.html
So it seems designed to keep in or out the hordes along the Russian border, (apparently), all 1,974.04 km (1,226.61 miles) of it on land.
Fictive interview with Kiev gov spokesperson:
Reporter: A lot has been discussed or proposed since Poroshenko's annoucement last september on the construction of a defensive wall to keep out the Russian hordes from our territory. Can you please update us ?
Gov S: As you know, President Poroshenko confirmed at the end of March that the buidling of the wall is to continue for most of the border with Russia, indeed there more than 85 miles of anti-tank ditches already dug near to Kharkiv. It is our modern version of Finland’s Mannerheim line of fortifications against the Soviet Union.
Reporter: at what cost?
G S: 300 million hryvni (US$12.8 million) has been set aside to begin engineering work in 2015. Moreover, the Polish government has been very kind in providing additional funding to the tune of $100 million as part of a package for this essential modernisation of our borders. This was annouced during Bronislaw Komorowski, the Polish President during his visit to Kiev recently.
Reporter: and what about the part that is held by the separatists?
G S: President Poroshenko stated that “At the same time, today our main task is to build defensive fortifications on the line of contact with the illegal armed groups in the Donbas [a region of eastern Ukraine].” I want to add that the government has set aside about 800 million hryvni (US$34 million) for defensive structures in the Donbas.
Reporter: Can you give us more details on the structure of the defensive wall?
G S: what I can tell is what is already known in public. It includes the actual steel wall, but also other fortifications which will have watchtowers, 4,000 army dugouts, as well as trenches for soldiers, and a barbed wire position running parallel to the wall, with a no-man’s land between Russia's & our border. This will be backed up with armored units & sophisticated surveillance equipment to counter Russian invasions.
Reporter: what is the purpose of this?
G S: As Prime Minister Yatsenyuk stated quite catergorically last october, "this is our line of defense, which will provide the Ukrainian Armed Forces with the first line of protection against the aggressor, which is the Russian Federation. Futhermore, he added that "In fact, it is the equipment of the European Union eastern border". "“No one will provide us the visa-free regime with the E.U. if there is no border,”
Have you noticed something odd? Yes it isn't quite complete and the barbed wire is facing Ukraine.
The wall is intended to be electrified and mines placed as well to deter intruders. It is estimated that the cost of 1 metre of wall might be 2 000 - 5 000 $. So, for 2000 km, that's quite a huge gap in the budget that significantly not has been 'officially' earmarked by Kiev or the EU.
EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Maya Kosyanchich recently said that:
“The EU supports integrated border management in Ukraine, in particular through budget aid worth €60 million. The payouts [...] are uncommitted. The amount of the new payment is not yet known. This program was approved in 2010. The financing agreement was signed in 2011. That “Wall” project was not part of the conditionality.”
Apparently that has fallen on deafs ears in Kiev since they have planned to spend a substantial part of the EU aid package on the construction of the wall & associated fortifications.
An insight into the mindset in Kiev:
"In fact, the more Russia looks like a modern day horde with disintegrating political and social institutions and a crumbling economy, with a lying, sniggering Great Leader clowning before adoring television audiences, the greater temptation there is to erect a kind of Great Wall of China to keep the barbarians out."

The former president — who will be joined by stars such as LeBron James, the Jonas Brothers, Yara Shahidi, Pharrell Williams, and Megan Rapinoe as well as some high school students — will address the graduating seniors.
“Your graduation ceremony just got bigger,” the organizers of “Graduate Together: America Honors the Class of 2020” announced, with a one-hour event planned to air simultaneously on ABC, CBS, Fox and NBC and stream on multiple platforms at 8 p.m. May 16. The event will be hosted by the educational nonprofit XQ Institute, the LeBron James Family Foundation and the Entertainment Industry Foundation.
“This high school graduation season will be anything but ordinary — but that’s all the more reason why the Class of 2020 deserves extraordinary advice, heartfelt encouragement, and hard-won wisdom about facing new challenges in an uncertain world,” Russlynn Ali, the chief executive officer and co-founder of the XQ Institute said in a written statement. “We are grateful to President Obama for giving this gift to our nation’s three million high school seniors as they #GraduateTogether.”
Earlier that day, Barack Obama will take part in a two-hour virtual commencement event for graduates of 74 historically black colleges and universities, with multiple sponsors, including the Thurgood Marshall College Fund, the National Basketball Association and Howard University.
In June, Barack and Michelle Obama plan to give separate commencement addresses on YouTube as well as a joint message to seniors in a global online celebration that will include celebrities such as Lady Gaga, Alicia Keys and Kerry Washington, former defense secretary Robert Gates and former secretary of state Condoleezza Rice, and Malala Yousafzai, the Pakistani activist and Nobel laureate.
YouTube’s “Dear Class of 2020” is scheduled to stream live at 3 p.m. June 6.
The Obamas had received dozens of requests in the past month to speak at virtual events worldwide, according to Katie Hill, a spokeswoman for the former president. Last month, a Los Angeles high school student’s tweet asking the former president to give a national address went viral, with more than 224,000 likes.
The Obamas have spoken at many commencements in person, including at Barnard College, Rutgers University, Howard University, Tuskegee University and Bowie State University.

- Screens: Viewing Media Installation Art
"To see differently, albeit for a moment, allows us to see anew," writes Parveen Adams in "Bruce Nauman and the Object of Anxiety," an article published in the winter 1998 issue of the journal October. The line serves as an epigraph introducing the second chapter of Kate Mondloch's salient analysis of screen-based art titled Screens: Viewing Media Installation Art and suggests the author's sanguine perspective regarding the potential of artworks that incorporate screen-based imaging to disrupt conventions of viewing and, in so doing, stage alternate—and specifically active—engagements with the screens around us. However, though the line from Adams sparkles with the glint of productive potential in the promise of "seeing anew," Mondloch dismisses the easy alignment of the active viewing situations staged by media installations with de facto libratory effects; she says instead that she is far more interested in considering the [End Page 152] phenomenological and ideological implications of emerging modes of spectatorship and subjectivity as contemporary viewers encounter increasingly pervasive media technologies. Furthermore, Mondloch stages her analysis from within the field of art history, pointing out both the inadequacy of robust analysis of media installation art within screen studies and the paucity of attention to this rich area of production within art history. This critical neglect demands a response, and Mondloch's book provides it.
Mondloch begins by situating her particular analysis in even greater detail, moving from the triangulation of three fields of discourse, namely screen studies, new media art, and art history, to the object of analysis. Rather than focus on the medium specificity of media installations, which is where much existing critical activity has been centered, Mondloch instead turns her attention to the viewer-screen interface, or what she dubs "the conceptual and material point at which the observing subject meets the technological object" (xvii). This nexus of subject and object is entirely material; it is always embedded within a space, and whereas the space itself is rife with ideological, political, and other less tangible ramifications, Mondloch is committed to ascertaining the significance of the interface created by artists and the ways in which it results in specific negotiations of bodies and screens. How do we see what we see in these "activated spaces"? Indeed, Mondloch emphasizes the importance of her concentration on the material intersection near the end of her introduction, writing, "There is a crucial imperative to recognize the ways in which screens and conditions of screen-based viewing 'matter' in both contemporary art and our digital everyday" (xxi). Mondloch's insistence on this material foundation gains added significance within a culture in which everyday screen-based computing is moving off desktops to becoming mobile and pervasive. Paying heed to an increasingly evanescent scene of interaction, then, paves the way for continued attention.
Mondloch's subsequent chapters continue to limn the power of the interstitial zone between screen subject and the situated media experience in a series of comparative analyses linked thematically. Chapter 1 examines Paul Sharits's Soundstrip/Filmstrip (1971-72) alongside Michael Snow's Two Sides to Every Story (1974). Sharits's project includes four projectors placed on pedestals, each projecting separate but connected films; the project also includes a sound track, with a male voice reciting fragments of the word miscellaneous, which can only be deciphered through careful listening as the gallery visitor moves through the space. Similarly, Snow's Two Sides to Every Story necessitates an active movement through the gallery space as visitors encounter two projectors projecting a similar film onto opposite sides of a thin, aluminum screen. As Mondloch explains, the projected films re-create the profilmic event, showing how the cameras were situated in the production process. In a sense, then, viewers encounter the sites of production and exhibition simultaneously; furthermore, the film's semblance of a narrative plays with the material elements of cinema, with the performers themselves interacting with a screen. As with Sharits's location-based project, Two Sides to Every Story necessitates that viewers move around the space of the gallery, gleaning the...

Maybe you're old enough to remember the 1961 film "West Side Story," with a young Natalie Wood playing Maria. The film won 10 Academy Awards.
The musical about two youths from rival gangs in New York City who fall in love was inspired by Shakespeare's play "Romeo and Juliet."
The tale of ethnic-inspired hatred and intolerance in "West Side Story" seems to be, unfortunately, timeless, making the show as relevant today as it was more than 50 years ago.
The Broadway revival of "West Side Story" is coming to Fort Wayne for one performance Monday at the Embassy Theatre.
The original Broadway show preceded the movie, opening in 1957. It is set in mid-1950s New York City in a neighborhood with rival gangs: the Sharks from Puerto Rico and the Jets, a Polish-American gang.
Tony, one of the Jets, falls in love with Maria, sister of the leader of the Sharks. Let's just say things don't end well.
Both the Broadway show and the movie featured extended dance scenes and unforgettable music: songs such as "Something's Coming," "Maria," "Somewhere," "I Feel Pretty" and "America."
In the Broadway revival coming to Fort Wayne, Tony Award nominee Joey McKneely reproduced the original Jerome Robbins choreography. Arthur Laurents wrote the book, Leonard Bernstein created the music and Stephen Sondheim wrote the lyrics.

Black Panther and Harvey started dating in November 2020 and celebrated their anniversary last year. The couple also made their relationship official on Instagram last year.
The doves have already stopped it after their 1.5-year affair full of PDAs, and public PEOPLE. Michael and Lori are still in love. And they are heartbrokenly confirmed by the source.
The source told that Michael has matured very well during her relationship and is ready to commit in the long run. He did not look after her and for the first time he opened up emotionally for a romantic relationship.
Jordan Talking About His Relationship
Earlier, when he spoke for The Hollywood Reporter, Jordan talked about his relationship and said that in his relationship with Harvey, he “finally found out what love is.” The actor explained more about disclosing his relationship: “When I was a child, I didn’t know if I could control the onslaught of opinions and segregation at all, as well as awareness of what others would do. It wants a special person to deal with. “
During their relationship, the couple shared several images full of PDAs on social networks. Harvey recently attended the Cannes Film Festival on May 17 and appeared on the red carpet at the screening of Final Cut. The couple has been rumored to be divorcing in recent weeks after returning from France to the film festival.
In April 2021, Jordan worried about Lori and her privacy because of her relationship with the PEOPLE.

BANGOR, Maine (WABI) – Works of art from across the region are on display in Bangor all this month.
The Bangor Arts Society is the longest continually running society in the nation.
This is the 147th year they’ve held a juried show.
90 pieces from 50 artists can be viewed at Eastern Maine Development Corporation’s office on Harlow Street.
It’s part of their on-going effort to get people’s work seen.
”Professional and amateurs, if you want to say, just to get the experience,” explained Chairperson Teddi-Jann Covell. “That is our focus. I believe it was Jeremiah Pearson Hardy in 1875 who started this and really I think he wanted an organization to support artists.”
The winners for this year’s show were announced Thursday evening.
For a full list of who took top honors you can visit their website.
The work will remain up through May.
You are invited to come check it out and vote in the People’s Choice competition.

Stylist are packing up their wellies and waterproofs and heading to V Festival this weekend, where we'll be setting up camp in the Virgin Media Louder Lounge to capture the best festival beauty on site, courtesy of the MAC Cosmetics team.
Festivals provide the perfect opportunity to push the boundaries of your usual make-up look (neon eyelashes and lashings of glitter are now de rigueur) and, with that in mind, MAC's Neil Young - Senior Make-Up artist for the cult brand - has created an exclusive festival make-up look for Stylist, featuring purple-tinged smokey eyes, finished with a starburst glittery stencil (sketched above, and also pictured on our online editorial assistant, Lauren Smith).
Want to recreate the look for your next festival outing? Simply download the stencil to use at home at the bottom of the page, and watch our expert video tutorial to get the look.
2. To ensure your eye-makeup lasts longer, apply a base – use Eye Paint in Sublime Nature, blending all over the lid with a tapered make-up brush, and soften into the socket.
3. Using a small brush, apply Parfait Amour eyeshadow along the upper lash line to create a soft layer of colour.
4. For a smouldery effect, use Technakohl liner in Purple Dash along the upper lash line, and then softly blend with a brush into the shadow – repeat under the lower lashes.
5. Finish off your smokey eye with a deep bluey-purple eye-shadow (I used Contrast) – apply to the outer corner of the eye for extra definition.
6. Apply Zoom Lash mascara to upper and lower lashes – it’s smudge and waterproof, so will hold off the inevitable rain!
7. After downloading your stencil, and cutting out the holes, hold it up to the face, fitting around the outside corner of your eyes. Using Paintstick in Rich Purple, colour in the stencil. Take the Mac Glitter Pigments (we’ve used purple and green), and mix with a creamy substance to ensure the glitter sticks – it can be anything from lip conditioner to anything slightly greasy. Press on the glitter all the way through the stencil, in any pattern you like – you might need a friend to help you with this!
8. Once face is covered, peel off the stencil carefully, and admire your handywork!

Here, we report our investigations on the development of novel, metal-free, organic materials able to harvest triplet states using efficient thermal activated delayed fluorescence (TADF), and dual fluorescence-phosphorescence emissions at room temperature (RT-DFP). These materials show enormous potential in different technological applications, including the development of materials for oxygen, and temperature sensing, optical power limiters, bio-imaging, and in organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs).
TADF, also known as E-type delayed fluorescence, has gained very rapid interest as a mechanism to improve efficiencies in OLEDs, due to the possibility of harvesting approx. 100% of the excitons formed from charge recombination, without requiring the use of expensive and scarce materials such as iridium or platinum. As TADF, the observation of RT-DFP in pure organic materials has also potential for many technological applications, and in particular in sensing applications. Recently, organic materials with long lived triplet photo-induced absorption were used to develop optical power limiters for low light levels. Magnetic modulation over visible room temperature phosphorescence using weak magnetic fields was also reported. Moreover, RT-DFP in principle, can be also used as a way to harvest triplet states in OLEDs and produce light directly from both singlet and triplet states, which may allow the design of metal free organic white emitters for lighting applications.
In this talk, the complex and rich photophysics of materials showing very efficient TADF and RT-DFP is discussed in detail, showing how a simple change on the molecular structure allows switching-off the strong TADF and opening the channel for efficient RT-DFP to be observed. The role of the energy ordering of electronic states on the efficiency of both mechanisms is also discussed, giving clear guidelines for the design of new emitters, and opening the way for TADF and RT-DFP to be explored in technological applications.

Good news guys. Ayreon have indeed released a lyric video for “Across The Rainbow Bridge”. You guys can now discover the video below!
On this release, Arjen Lucassen comments:
“In honor of the 20th anniversary re-release of ‘Into The Electric Castle’ we proudly present you this cool lyric video for the newly mixed version of ‘Across the Rainbow Bridge’! It’s created once again by the amazing Wayne Joyner, I think it really captures the right mood. Hope you enjoy it too, despite that weird Hippie-dude ^^”


Our solar thermal imaging service offers several advantages to solar installers and end-users alike. Our thermal imaging cameras, mounted on drones or handheld versions, can see anomalies and faults that can clearly be seen on a crisp thermal image and unlike some other fault finding methods, we can use our thermal cameras to spot faults while the solar panels are still in operation.
Our drone can survey utility scale solar farms and large roof mounted solar arrays using an octocopter, fully equipped with a high quality visual and thermal imaging camera, irradiance meter and powerful onboard computer which can analyse the data in real time and provide accurate, automated, real time reports.
We are able to provide a thermal imaging service during array installation, but perhaps most importantly, we can provide you with a regular predictive maintenance check-up after the solar panels have been installed. Our thermal cameras will spot potential problem areas and you can then look to repair before actual problems or failures occur.
Our thermal imaging camera allows us to quickly identify defects at both module and cell level as well as wiring and interconnection problems under normal operating conditions and we do not require a system shut down. This means that we can provide your system with a regular check-up and potentially increase drastically the solar array owners return on investment.
Common faults include:
- Bipass Diode Failures
- Clusters of Thermal Anomalies
- Disconnected Panels
- Overheating components in junction and connection boxes
Any faults or anomalies that are found are reported to your site maintenance team or solar array owner. Where a member of the solar maintenance team is on site, they may be able to rectify any problems that require urgent attention.
The use of IR Drones in Australia is covered by the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA), which regulates all aircraft/flight operations in Australia, remote and piloted. As a result, drone operations are subject to the requisite approvals/certificates and will be assessed on a case by case basis.
Please contact us if you would like to arrange a thermal imaging survey on your solar array.

Pokémon AshGray Version (Beta 4.5 Released!!)
View Single Post
September 11th, 2009 (7:44 PM).
Hi everyone. Sorry I haven't been around in a bit, but I've been busy with work and stuff - I finally had two days off in a row, so I've had a chance to work on the game some today. I'm working on the Punchy Pokemon and it's coming along nicely. I might upload a new Beta with the event in it once I've completed it as a small update to fans of the game, since I haven't made much progress on it over the last couple weeks.
, I did see your walkthrough - I was surprised someone was doing a walkthrough for it already! But I noticed you're using an older version of the game - you should update to the new version. The newest version (Beta 1.65) shouldn't have problems with getting through underground doors and stuff ... In the newest version, the Hidden Village leads directly to Route 6.

The application of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in evaluating the heart and its plethora of diseases has
grown over the years. Abundant research and advancements in this modality had been made, largely due to the perceived
benefits of MRI. These accepted advantages of MRI include absence of ionizing radiation, reproducible technique and
does not require iodine-based contrast media. It had even been touted as the ‘one-stop shop’ for cardiac imaging. Cardiac
magnetic resonance (CMR) has the ability to assess the heart comprehensively, examining cardiac morphology, ventricular
function, perfusion, myocardial viability, as well as delineation and quantification of tissue constituents. Other benefits
lie in the intrinsic properties of MRI which provide high temporal and spatial resolution, superb tissue contrast and possibility
of imaging in any plane. In view of these superior advantages of CMR, it is currently the modality of choice in a
number of cardiac diseases.
Keywords: Cardiac imaging, coronary artery disease, magnetic resonance, myocardial perfusion, myocardial viability.

FAIRBANKS—The Kevin Aldridge and Garret Clemment Show did an encore performance for the Fairbanks Ice Dogs Friday night at Kay Yeager Coliseum in Wichita Falls, Texas
The Ice Dogs teammates are the North American Hockey League’s West Division First and Second Stars of the Week after the Ice Dogs swept the Corpus Christi ice Rays.
Friday night they were the key performers as the Ice Dogs skated to a 2-1 victory against the Wichita Falls Wildcats.
Aldridge recorded 30 saves as the Ice Dogs extended their winning streak to four games, including a 3-0-0 mark on their current road trip. Clement propelled the offense with an assist and the game-winning goal on a power play with three minutes remaining in the game.
“I thought Kevin played very well again tonight and the defense played well in front of him,” Ice Dogs coach Trevor Stewart said. “I don’t think our forwards played that well and they’ll have to be better Saturday night if we want to finish this trip on a successful note.”
The Ice Dogs and Wildcats play for the final time in the regular season at 4:05 p.m. AST today and Stewart expects another tough battle.
“I expect a spirited game on the Wildcats par after we took two points from them on a Friday night on their home ice,” Stewart said. “We’ll be motivated because we want to come back to Alaska with a win in our last game of the trip.”
The Ice Dogs return to Alaska on Sunday, but won’t play at the Big Dipper until Dec. 14-15 when they host the Kenai River Brown Bears at the Big Dipper Ice Arena.
In the meantime, Fairbanks will play a two-game series against Kenai River on Nov. 30-Dec. 1 at the Soldotna Sports Center.
Fairbanks boasts a 17-6-0 record and remains three points ahead of the Wenatchee Wild in the NAHL West Division standings. Wenatchee, a 3-1 winner against Fresno on Friday, has played four fewer games than Fairbanks.
Clemment scored the game-winning goal with help from Nick Hinz and Doug Rose at the 17:00 mark of the third period.
Stewart said the Ice Dogs got a break on the game-winner.
“The puck hit the goalie, then bounced off a (Wichita) defenseman and went into the net,” Stewart said.
Brett Gervais got the Ice Dogs on the scoreboard at 11:54 of the first period when he knocked home a rebound, with assists from Clemment and Dougie Lagrone.
“It was a nice goal,” Stewart said. “Garret made a nice pass to Dougie, who put a shot on net, and Brett was right there on the back side to tap in the rebound.”
Wichita Falls tied the scored at 11:42 of the second period when Will Volejpka scored an unassisted goal.
The Ice Dogs had 20 shots on goal and were outshot 14-3 in the third period. Fairbanks went 1 for 5 on the power play.
Wenatchee was 0 for 4 on the power play.

The Galesburg Silver Streaks are hoping to resume their baseball season this weekend, when they are scheduled to play a Western Big 6 Conference doubleheader at Rock Island. Galesburg pounded out 16 hits in an 11-5 win over Morton yesterday, but won't get their game in today at Peoria Richwoods due to rain.
The Knox Prairie Fire baseball team is also targeting the weekend for a return to action, as they have back to back matchups with rival Monmouth College. The two teams will meet Saturday at noon in Galesburg, and then again Sunday at noon in Monmouth. The Fire dropped a tough 3-2 decision to Augustana in 13 innings yesterday.
A pair of Lincoln Trail Conference athletes will be attending Carl Sandburg College in the Fall. ROWVA High School's Haley Swanson and Galva's Alex Strom have signed to play next season for the Chargers women's basketball team. Swanson earned second-team all-conference honors with the Tigers during her senior season, while Strom was first-team all-conference, averaging 16 points and 10 rebounds per game. Strom will also play volleyball for the Chargers this Fall.

Some of the NCCAM/OAM-funded projects have already added to the scientific literature and influenced clinical care.
In 1997, the OAM joined with the NIH Office of Medical Applications of Research to sponsor a consensus development conference on acupuncture. A 12-member panel concluded that there is clear evidence that needle acupuncture treatment is effective for postoperative and chemotherapy nausea and vomiting, nausea related to pregnancy as well as postoperative dental pain (PT March, 1998).
In 1993, the center began to cofund exploratory pilot projects to identify promising areas of future research. Thirty awards were made that year, and another 12 in 1994. A database of final report research data from OAM grants made in FY 1993 and 1994 is available at the following Web site: <http://altmed.od.nih.gov/nccam/cgi-bin/research/form.cgi>. Objectives, design, outcome measures, results and conclusions are cited for 23 studies. Here are some examples:
Acupuncture: Researchers from the University of Arizona Tucson sought to determine if the effectiveness of acupuncture in alleviating unipolar depression in women is sufficient to warrant a larger clinical trial. Following treatment specifically designed for depression, 64% of women (n=33) experienced full remission. "Based on the results of [a] small sample, acupuncture appears to provide significant symptom relief at a rate comparable to standard treatments such as psychotherapy or pharmacotherapy," the researchers concluded.
Energy therapy: Researchers at the Menninger Clinic looked at whether energy therapy could potentially treat, and produce cost-saving and reduced side effects for, basal cell carcinoma. Two bioenergy healers moved their hands (without touching) approximately one to two inches over the client's head and body. Treatment took place 30 minutes every other day for five days. All patients had tumors photographed and digitized for computer analysis. Four patients showed tumor reduction or elimination confirmed by these photographs during the three-week treatment period. All other patients either showed no effect or the results were equivocal. Static electrical surges of up to 28 volts and 54 volts were measured on the bodies of the two healers while they were engaged in energetic therapy. Based on their fingertips, the researchers concluded that "the findings of significant effects were modest, need replication with better standardization of camera-client distances and the use of color film, and a longer treatment period."
Massage therapy: Researchers from the University of Virginia School of Medicine conducted a controlled trial of the effectiveness of therapeutic massage as an adjunct to standard medical care. Patient volunteers scheduled for abdominal hysterectomy surgery were randomly assigned to receive either standard postsurgical care plus a daily 45-minute therapeutic massage or standard care alone. The researchers found that "cortisol was substantially lower and more often found to be within the normal range by the fifth postoperative day for the massage group relative to the controls…and the massage group used less patient-controlled analgesia." However, they did not find any significant differences between the two groups in use of oral narcotic painkillers or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. No additional medical services were used by the massage treatment group during the four-week posthospital period, but five of the 15 standard-care patients required additional physician visits. The investigators concluded "therapeutic massage appears to promote recovery from surgery by reducing subjective tension and enhancing parasympathetic response."
In FY 1998, NCCAM-sponsored research included evaluating the efficacy of acupuncture for back pain, pilot studies of St. John's wort in juvenile depression and self-transcendence in breast cancer support groups.
As the NCCAM continues its work, Jonas has some practical advice for his successor: "Understand that biases abound in these areas. Opinions are often extreme-both pro and con. However, you must go with the research evidence, even if the topic is unpopular or the area is stigmatized."
