‘In the heart of the great Pacific, a story is taking place that may change the way you see everything’.
Released in 2017, Albatross will be Screened on Wednesday 11 September, Recycling Discovery Centre 8.30pm, Doors 8pm.
The screening will be followed by a Q & A on plastic waste and recycling by Veolia.
Albatross is a powerfully moving love story that brings viewers together into a shared space of connection and reverence
The Story of ALBATROSS
‘The Midway Project’ a note from Chris Jordan
The journey of ALBATROSS began in 2008 as a collaboration with my friend, activist/photographer Manuel Maqueda. Studying the newly-emerging issue of ocean plastic pollution, we learned of a stunning environmental tragedy taking place on a tiny atoll in the center of the vast North Pacific Ocean.
We immediately began planning an expedition there, and on our first trip to Midway Island in September of 2009, we and our team photographed and filmed thousands of young albatrosses that lay dead on the ground, their stomachs filled with plastic.
The experience was devastating, not only for what it meant for the suffering of the birds, but also for what it reflected back to us about the destructive power of our culture of mass consumption, and humanity’s damaged relationship with the living world.
ABOUT THE VENUE:
This state-of-the-art facility can process all of Southwark’s household waste and recyclables helping to significantly improve recycling rates and reduce the impact that the borough’s waste has on the environment.
This facility represents a key piece of waste infrastructure that sets the standard for the way waste is managed in the capital. It also enables us to divert the majority of Southwark’s waste away from landfill.
The facility comprises of five major areas:
- The Materials Recovery Facility sorts recyclables collected from households.
- The Mechanical Biological Treatment facility turns black bag waste into a fuel for energy recovery.
- The Reuse and Recycling Centre supports waste prevention through a variety of reuse schemes.
- The Transfer Station provides a collection point for any materials that cannot be treated on site.
- The Recycling Discovery Centre offers educational opportunities designed especially for primary school children.

The New Yorker, September 12, 1994 P. 40
ANNALS OF COMMUNICATIONS about journalists' speaking fees. Tells about a meeting of prominent Democrats and of a push in Congress to force journalists to disclose their speaking fees. Many complained of what they saw as the ethical obtuseness of Sam Donaldson, of ABC, angrily noting that, just four days earlier, "Prime-Time Live," the program that Donaldson co-anchors, had attacked the Independent Insurance Agents of America for treating congressional staff people to a Key West junket. Yet a year earlier the same insurance group had paid Donaldson a $30,000 lecture fee. Writer interviews or tells the situation of, Donaldson, George Will, Cokie Roberts, Brit Hume, Bernard Shaw, Pat Buchanan, John Sununu, David Brinkley, Robert Novak, Mark Shields, Michael Kinsley, Fred Barnes, Morton M. Kondracke, Gloria Borger, Wolf Blitzer, Andrea Mitchell, Rita Braver, Chris Wallace, Norman Pearlstine, Jeff Greenfield, Tim Russert, Margaret Carlson, Tom Brokaw, Peter Jennings, Dan Rather, Ted Koppel, Jim Lehrer, Bob Schieffer, Hugh Sidey and James Wooten--the elite journalists make a solid point when they say that lecture fees don't buy favorable coverage, But corruption can take subtler forms than the quid pro quo, and the fact that the journalists are selling entertainment rather than influence does not wipe the moral slate clean. The real corruption of "fee speech," perhaps, is not that journalists will do favors for the associations and busineses that pay them speaking fees but tht the nexus of television and speaking fees creates an incentive to be showy and opinionated and snappy on TV--and to a lesser extent on the printed page as well. An attitude of scorn often substitutes for hard work or hard thought, and it's difficult to deny that the over-all result of this dynamic is a coarsening of political discourse.

New Alliances Form Across U.S. as LGBTQ Backlash Starts
With LGBT protections coming under increasing threat in the United States as a new governing and policy-making environment took shape during the first half of 2017, a growing movement is uniting to challenge the reversal of gains made in recent years.
In July 2017 the administration declared its intent to end open transgender service in the military on the same day that it argued in court that laws against sex discrimination in the workplace do not cover sexual orientation, contradicting federal policies of recent years.
“They’ve decided to gang up on…trans officers and service members, and to ask courts to take basic civil rights protections away from LGBT folks,” says James Esseks, director of the ACLU’s Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and HIV Project.
“The scope of their assault is breathtaking,” he says.The proposed reversals came just weeks after a May 2017 federal circuit-court decision in favor of a 17-year-old transgender Wisconsin student who had challenged his school district’s demand that he use a girl’s restroom. “This federal court decision …will touch any school function that has federal funding, including restrooms, locker rooms, and dorms,” says Flor Bermudez, director of the Transgender Law Center’s Detention Project.
A crucial test of LGBT equality under the law — whether business owners can deny services to people based on their own religious beliefs — will be taken up in 2017 by the U.S. Supreme Court in the case of a Colorado baker who refused to make a wedding cake for a male couple.
“Anxiety and fear have built around LGBTQ visibility, which represents for some that things aren’t the way they used to be,” says Marisa Franco, executive director of Mijente, which serves Latinx people nationwide. “Unmasking of racism, sexism, and anti-immigrant fervor is at a peak.”
Arrests of undocumented immigrants, having reached unprecedented levels under President Obama, increased by more than 38 percent, to more than 41,000 people, both with and without criminal convictions, during the first three months of the Trump administration.1
A grassroots recipient of the Transforming Movements Fund, Mijente in 2017 issued guidelines to activists working to establish or expand the scope of “sanctuary cities”—some 300 of which have already restricted their local law enforcement agencies’ compliance with federal agents seeking to identify undocumented residents.
Among eight recommendations in the Mijente guidelines document, Expanding Sanctuary, is for cities to support trans and gender-nonconforming immigrants in finding employment as one way to reduce reliance on informal-sector work, which increases the risk of arrest or detention.
“Louisville has a fairness ordinance protecting LGBT employees, but LGBT immigrants, especially trans people, are far more likely to come into contact with the police,” says T. Gonzales, a Houston-born transgender social worker and leader in the local sanctuary campaign.
Mijente’s guidelines have been used by activists in more than 100 cities, including Louisville, where the organization helped push the Jefferson County School System board to approve a “safe-haven” measure, committing it to protecting undocumented students from inquiries by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
A citywide sanctuary policy has been more elusive in Louisville, and Gonzales spent two weeks in May 2017 handing out fliers at the Kentucky Derby, encouraging visitors to support the sanctuary campaign.
“Current immigration policies are a particular risk for many workers at the Derby,” Gonzales says. “They’re scared to leave the confines of the track because of uncertainty over whether they’ll come into contact with ICE, even if they haven’t committed a crime.”
Gonzales emphasizes that Louisville’s resolution must go beyond proclaiming the city “welcoming to all” and address “police profiling around race, religion, and gender identity that results in too many people having criminal records and that tears families apart.”
Another city where activists are pushing for stronger immigrant-protection policies, Madison, Wisconsin, has been the site of a multifaceted collaboration to oppose what they call “over-policing” of people of color, including trans people and immigrants, for poverty-related crimes like shoplifting and sex work.
“The constant discrimination can be both overt and subtle,” says M. Adams, who, as a gender-nonconforming graduate of the University of Wisconsin–Madison, was once turned down for a job in a local clothing store despite performing well at a sales audition.
She was informed that the store preferred to hire women who would best model its “feminine” lines.
Now co-director of Freedom Inc., an anti-violence organization also funded through the Transforming Movements Fund, Adams is shining a spotlight on the stark gap between the size of the city’s Black population and the number of Black inmates in its jails.
If not for discriminatory policing and sentencing, says Adams, only 50 of the 800 inmates at the local prison would be Black, in proportion with Madison’s six percent Black population. However, approximately one half of the total prison population, or 400 inmates, are Black.
“People don’t randomly wind up in jail,” she says, explaining how the disproportionality led Freedom, Inc. to launch the Free the 350 campaign, which brought together the city’s Black, Hmong, and Cambodian communities, including their LGBTQ members, and other allies.
In 2016, the campaign, which involved three years of public debates, community meetings, media interventions, direct actions, and petitioning, claimed a victory when Madison’s Dane County Board of Supervisors voted down plans to construct a new jail.
Says Adams, preventing the addition of new prison beds—which the city is then pressured to fill to justify their investment in a jail—is an important step toward halting mass incarceration.
“My people survived slavery,” she says. “We beat Jim Crow. We’ve built our numbers by stretching across movements, and now our work is about reimagining how things could be different entirely.”

AutoTrader EchoPark Automotive 500 Picks
Race: AutoTrader EchoPark Automotive 500
Date: Sunday September 25, 2022
Track: Texas Motor Speedway
Time: 3:30pm ET
What Did We Learn From Last Weekend?
And there you have it! The round of 16 is officially closed, and now we’re left with the top 12 drivers facing off for the championship. What made this first segment even crazier is that it’s the first time in history that a non-playoff driver won each of the three races. Not only that, but Brad Keselowski can breathe a sigh of relief as part owner of RFK after Chris Buescher drove his #17 Fastenal Ford to victory lane on Saturday night. Buescher capitalized on a final pit stop after leader Christopher Bell cut a tire down. During that stop, crew chief Scott Graves made a gutsy call and allowed Buescher to say yay or nay to a two tire stop. Ultimately, Buescher had confidence in Graves’ call and took the two tires which put him into the lead. That track position is all it took for him to maintain the lead and drive all the way to victory lane in front of Chase Elliott. For Buescher, this was huge. His last (and only) win came at Pocono back in 2016. RFK hadn’t won a points race since 2017. Nevertheless, the 222 race winless streak came to an end there Saturday night in Thunder Valley.
While Buescher made for the 19th different winner this season, there are many other drivers not having that kind of luck, at least in these playoff races. Four drivers were eliminated after Saturday night’s race including Kyle Busch, Kevin Harvick, Austin Dillon, and Tyler Reddick. Kyle Busch took it very hard, but he also said its akin to how his entire year has gone. With a lot of blame seemingly placed on JGR, what he does with his opportunity at RCR remains to be seen. Attitude is everything. If he brings the same attitude, little will change. He’s become more calloused in my opinion and unable to see the silver linings of even a 2nd place finish. I’m not in that garage, but I can’t imagine that morale is at an all time high. Although he’s out of the Chase, he still has 9 races left to get in another win or two. Let’s see if he won’t just foil the entire opportunity.
Where Are We Headed This Weekend?
This weekend, the drivers and teams are heading to Texas Motor Speedway to begin the round of 12. Texas is a 1.5-mile asphalt oval that’s been on the circuit since about 1996. Turns 1 and 2 boast 20 degrees banking while turns 3 and 4 boast 24 degrees. Texas is all about track position. It’s one of those places where drivers get out front and pull away. Tires will definitely play a role here as well, especially if we see long green flag runs. The teams have already raced here this year back in May where Daniel Suarez took the win. He’s fallen off the wayside recently and struggled for much of the season, so we’ll have to see if Texas treats him any better than the rest of the summer has. Maybe this will be what he needs to make a comeback. Either way, Texas is a long track with a lot of speed. As I mentioned, track position will be the name of the game. The guys that qualify up front are the ones to watch for sure. There really aren’t a ton of options in terms of true passing at this track mostly because the field ends up so spread out. Once lap traffic accumulates, we see quite a bit more competition. Even still, it’s generally a race with a lot of green flags, tire woes, and a spread out field.

Odds and Value Picks
When it comes to picking a winner, I’m not so sure I would put much credence in a repeat from Suarez. He’s struggled for the better part of the summer. Heading into Texas, he’s not quite the favorite at 40-1 odds. Although he has a good shot of having a strong finish, I’m not putting much on him to take the checkers. Will we see a 20th different winner this weekend? I’m not so positive on that one either. Although the first segment threw us all for a loop with 3 different non-playoff winners, I dare say that Texas will not produce the same results. This track lends itself to some rather mundane racing. There likely won’t be a any surprises here. I don’t think that we’ll see another Buescher type win either. He isn’t rated well for this race anyway. At 100-1, you’ll definitely get your money’s worth, though, if he can turn water into wine this weekend. We have the regulars showing strength, mostly notably Denny Hamlin, Kyle Larson, and Chase Elliott. Those guys are the favorites heading into Sunday’s big race. Let’s take a look at your potential winners:
- Winner: Chase Elliott +700 (Bet it for FREE with a 100% real cash bonus up to $500 when you use bonus promo code PREDICT100 at MyBookie Sportsbook!)
- Mid-range pick: Kevin Harvick +1500
- Dark Horse: Erik Jones +10000
Jones has been coming on strong in the back half of this season. He’s been trying to prove a point and had some solid runs when all is said and done. Although he’s never won here, he’s gotten 4th on multiple occasions and has one of the best average finishes among active drivers. I think that he’s going to stay quietly in the lead pack on Sunday. Kevin Harvick is also another driver to watch. Although he’s out of the playoffs at this point, he’s going into Texas as a driver with multiple wins and the best average finish of all active drivers currently. Almost all of his last starts at Texas in the last 10 years have resulted in top 10s. He definitely knows his way around this place, and now that the pressure of the championship is off his shoulders, he will absolutely be looking for wins more than anything else and probably at almost any cost in terms of experimenting. Harvick isn’t a dirty driver, but he will be able to make some adjustments and take some risks that he may have not otherwise taken with the championship looming. Chase Elliott, on the other hand, still has that pressure, not that he would be complaining. He’s also got one of the best ratings of all active drivers. He’s has a few bad finishes here, but most recently, Elliott has been consistently strong. This weekend should be no different. He’s going into Texas with 8-1 odds. Here’s a look at your current top 12 after Bristol.
- Chase Elliott
- Joey Logano
- Ross Chastain
- Kyle Larson
- William Byron
- Denny Hamlin
- Christopher Bell
- Ryan Blaney
- Chase Briscoe
- Alex Bowman
- Daniel Suarez
- Austin Cindric
There’s actually only 7 points separating 12th place Cindric from 8th place Blaney. That’s how close these guys are right now. Getting wins will continue to be critical, but it doesn’t seem to be as easy as it was in the past. The entire field is only separated by 31 points, although 2nd place Logano is only 16 points up on everyone else. That gives us a clue that this ain’t over until it’s over. Texas will definitely be a place that provides some insight into the remainder of the season. As an intermediate track, I think that we’re going to see some veterans taking the reins and bringing home the checkered flag. A playoff contender will likely secure his spot in the round of 8 as well. Stay tuned for a great weekend of racing at Texas Motor Speedway!

Saturday the 19th marked the date for the 14th worldwide sketchcrawl.
Diane and I decided to take part and chose Ely, Cambridgeshire as our location, we were met by Emma-Jane on our arrival.
After a browse in Tindalls at the delicious art materials where I purchased a bottle of black ink, our first stop was a chair opposite Starbucks.
We then moved onto the green outside the cathedral where The Chantry caught my eye.
From the same spot on the grass I turned to sketch the entrance to the cathedral while E-J finished her sketch of the yummy chocolate cake I had purchased in the market.
It was a most enjoyable day spent in great company, I'm so pleased Emma-Jane managed to come along. As always, I wish I had sketched more but the afternoon wind, good conversation and hot coffee shared our day.
I hope to go back to Ely with my sketchbooks in the not too distant future, such a fabulous town scattered with fantastic architecture and then of course there is the cathedral itself, I visited last year, such brilliant workmanship surely deserves another entry in my sketchbooks!

Walkouts are taking place at 23 local authorities across England and Wales. This number could increase depending on the outcome of upcoming ballots.
While Unite has said strikes will impact “potentially millions” of residents, there are concerns that the move will not capture the public’s attention in a big enough way to motivate change.
Why are councils striking?
Unite members are striking for a better pay deal after the regulating body for England, Wales and Nothern Ireland refused to re-open talks.
Peter Hughes, the regional secretary for Unite Wales, described the current pay offer as “a slap in the face [which] would see pay levels further eroded”.
“Our members provide essential services day in, day out, and deserve better,” he added.
Clare Keogh, national officer at Unite, told the LGC: “services have been cut to the absolute bone, and our members have been on the front line of that”.
Ms. Keogh aims to encourage the Local Government Association to adopt a stronger position in its dealings with DLUHC and collaborate with unions to advocate for increased funding for local councils.
Here at Imperium Solutions, we support all local authorities and the hard work their staff do behind the scenes to keep our country up and running.

VW joins the connected car race
Volkswagen AG recently announced that it has partnered with South Korea electronics manufacturer, LG on the development of a next-generation connected car service platform.
At a time when consumers are demanding increased connectivity in their cars, Volkswagen has identified 3 key initiatives the two companies will be concentrating on in coming years.
They will work to integrate smart home solutions into Volkswagen’s crossover platform, allowing cars to communicate with smart home devices. Drivers will effectively be able to control and monitor things like their lights, security systems and appliances, all from the road.
The two companies will also work on a context-sensitive notifications centre. It will deliver messages safely and intuitively to the driver as well as to provide optimized recommendations in real time.
A next-generation infotainment system is in the works too, to support built-in connectivity. Currently, the VW infotainment system features App-Connect, which allows drivers to access a selection of apps via the touchscreen upon connecting their smartphones to the system.
“Volkswagen is pressing on with the digitalisation of its brands. LG is a strong, reliable partner in the implementation of new features and one of the drivers of innovation in the networked household”, said Prof. Thomas Form, Head of Electronics and Vehicle Research at VW.
LG has been manufacturing smart home appliances and smartphones for a number of years, positioning them as the perfect partner to help drive VW into the future.

Walk 1097 - printer friendly version
Caer Caradoc from Church Stretton Walk
Author - Lou Johnson
Length - 3.5 miles / 5.7 km
Ascent - 960 feet / 291 metres
Grade - easy/mod
Start - OS grid reference SO466954
Lat 52.553808 + Long -2.7890234
Postcode SY6 7JJ (approx. location only)
This appears to be a walk without challenge yet the ascent of this hill is steep hence its grading of "easy to moderate". The reward for your efforts is some excellent exercise and wonderful views to the Long Mynd. In addition the hill is full of history with its natural ramparts being used by iron age man and the Romans as an ideal fort.
The start is the lay-by (Grid ref. SO 466954) on the eastern side of the A49 Shrewsbury to Ludlow road about a mile north of the main road junction in the town centre. From this lay-by head north along the grass verge with Caer Caradoc rising steeply on your right to reach a signed footpath going right across a field and into a wood. You are soon through the wood and crossing further pasture you climb steadily to reach a stile. Take note of this spot as you will return here at the end of the route.
Cross this stile and turn left along the footpath that contours north along the flank of caer Caradoc. After approximately half a mile look out for a rising path forking right. Take this and climb more steeply to the col between Caer Caradoc and Little Caradoc. Turn right to climb more steeply onto the summit of Caer Caradoc. The summit provides superb views - west across the valley to the Long Mynd, southeast to Hope Bowder Hill and northeast to the Lawley and the Wrekin.
Leave the summit rocks and follow the ridge south and then southwest to reach Three Fingers Rock, which is well known feature of this hill. Shortly after this outcrop the path drops steeply to reach a stile. Do not clamber over, instead turning right to follow a footpath that contours around Caer Caradoc to reach the point detailed above. Turn left over the stile and descend across pastures and through the wood to regain the starting point.

Ayushmann Khurrana and Vaani Kapoor's latest film, Chandigarh Kare Aashiqui has been earning high praise from all quarters. The movie's trailer may have put some people off but when the film was released, it met with widespread acclaim. In fact, Hrithik Roshan had even watched the movie at the time in theatres and had praised it. In an exclusive chat with Mayukh Majumdar, Content Strategist of Filmfare, director Abhishek Kapoor recalls: "When Hrithik saw the film in theatres, a lot of critics were not able to understand ki 'yaar this is not intellectually done' and it is not what they expected it to be, you know? Hrithik saw the film and the kind of reaction he gave me was so pure and genuine. He called me up and he said something . . . that it is one of the best movies he has ever seen and I asked him was he exaggerating and he said, ‘absolutely not, this is my feeling and I am shocked that how you had the courage to do that, to make a mainstream film and so normally you did it as if its nothing’ and that reaction really kind of strengthened my resolve and told me that what I had done was the right thing."
During the interview, Abhishek Kapoor maintains that he wanted to make the film in a rom-com kind of way and not over-intellectualise it. "I mean you know everyone feels ki yaar how can he be with her in the end. In the end, if you want to make a mainstream movie toh she has to have her own life and 'bechari ko nahi mila sukh' and so everyone says, haan, I can relate to Ayushmann’s character. No, I was convinced you know? For example - When I interacted with so many transgender girls, I asked myself this question, would I go for it and to tell you the truth, I would. You know, if you meet them and I met so many of them, in the first 15 minutes of the conversation you just forget. They are just human beings you know," he added.
"Some people say that it's so simplistic but why are you expecting anguish? Because their minds are trained to see this as a very left, niche kind of film but my experience after having met so many trans people from the community and having interacted with them, it is normalised. So hence, the narrative style and the telling of the story has a normalcy to it, which many people think “ki bahut simple hai”, but hai simple! I think the most complicated things should be narrated in a simple way, you know you don’t need to complicate things. In fact, to come to a stage of simplification, you have to go through the process of very complicated details and then unknot them in your head and then present it convincingly in a simplistic form. That has been the challenge. So when people say something is really simple, they say, “yaar ye to bahot simple hai”, par vo simple karne ke liye hi bahot mushkilo se guzarna parta hai," he further states.

Polling the plummet of higher education
Below are sample questions to ask a random sample of the American public. First, about Missouri:
1. Do you agree or disagree that the president of the Missouri system of four colleges should have resigned due to accusations by minority and radical white students that he did not react dramatically enough to alleged incidents of racism on campus?
2. Do you believe that the football coach acted ethically to demonstrate "solidarity" with his black team members, who demanded the resignation of the system president and the chancellor of the University of Missouri, the hiring of more minority faculty, and hardball policies to punish students who may utter what could be construed as a racist, religious, or gender-based slur?
3. Do you believe that the football team activists and their coach blackmailed the university into capitulating to their demands by threatening a strike of an upcoming game that would cost the school one million dollars?
4. Do you agree that sports coaches have the right to lobby to remove presidents and chancellors?
5. Do you approve of school policies being forced on the university by the seven-percent black minority of the student body?
6. Would you allow your college-age child to attend the University of Missouri?
7. Do you agree or disagree with diversity outreach programs in light of the situation at Missouri?
8. Do you agree or disagree that radical professors and scholars are to blame for the politically correct beliefs of students behind the protests and demands?
Suggested poll questions for the Yale survey:
1. Do you agree or disagree that it was proper for the president of Yale to put his signature on a memo to students to avoid Halloween costumes that could theoretically offend minorities, suggesting not to wear feathers, turbans, and blackface?
2. Do you agree or disagree with the Yale residence hall adult monitor who said the memo was frivolous and violated free speech and expression?
3. Are you very surprised, slightly surprised, or not surprised that students took the side of the president and attacked the residence hall monitor and her husband with profane, vulgar, and hysterical screams?
4. Do you agree or disagree that the status of Yale as one of the three top schools in the U.S. has declined since adopting politically correct theories and dumbing down curricula to accommodate minority students vigorously recruited over the past 40 years?
5. Based on student exploits and moronic crude behavior, is Yale's astronomical tuition a waste of money?
6. Were you disgusted, nauseated, or outraged at the video of a female student hysterically screaming the F-word over and over to the husband of the Yale residence hall, whose wife disagreed with the stifling of freedom in the email signed by the school president?
7. Do agree or disagree that colleges must prepare "trigger warnings" to ensure that students are not exposed to words or actions that could be labeled upsetting?
8. Are you aware or unaware that comedian Jerry Seinfeld and many others will not appear on college campuses, citing the absence of a sense of humor by today's students?

My broad beans which I sowed three weeke ago appear to have been eaten. I sowed them directly in the ground with half of them having been soaked and chitted before planting.There appears to be little holes and broken shoots scattered on the surface. I have never had this problem before- is it mice and what can I do about it?
It could also be pigeons. I've watched woodpigeons ferret below the soil until finding a broad bean seed and then lift and swallow it whole. One bird managed half a row before I got outside to scare it away. I grow them in small pots now and only plant out when they are several inches tall to avoid this sort of damage by rodents or pigeons.
Mine are netted and I found one chewed, i have now used a few slug pellets and no more chewed. Loads of slug slime and dead ones though.
Dip the beans in paraffin before planting an old allotment trick and works.

Jennifer Lawrence has joined her castmates at the UK premiere of the penultimate Hunger Games movie, Mockingjay Part 1, in London.
The 24-year-old actress spent time signing autographs and posing for fan selfies at the event on Monday night.
Lawrence has reprised her role as Katniss Everdeen in the adaptations of the best-selling teen fiction books.
The film also features one of the final screen performances of later actor Philip Seymour Hoffman.
Speaking at the press conference earlier in the day, the films’s director Francis Lawrence described Hoffman’s death in February as “a horrible, horrible thing,” adding “he was a friend, he was a great guy, he was a fantastic actor and it was something we never got over”.
At the film’s premiere in Leicester Square, fans queued for hours to catch a glimpse of stars including Oscar-nominee Julianne Moore, Donald Sutherland and British actors Sam Claflin and Natalie Dormer.
Lawrence told reporters: “It’s amazing to see so many fans here. Someone gave me a photo of a Shetland pony to sign. I don’t know what it means but it’s still making me laugh now.”
New Zealand singer Lorde wrote and composed the theme song from the film, which is due to be released in the UK on 21 November.
She told reporters she found inspiration for the track Yellow Flicker Beat – which is played in full over the film’s closing credits – by “watching the little clips of the film that I was allowed to watch six …read more

The workers' union of Grameen Telecom yesterday withdrew a case seeking liquidation of the company owned by Nobel Laureate Dr Muhammad Yunus after it agreed to pay the money it owes the employees.
The union of workers had filed the case at the High Court on 7 February 2022 against Grameen Telecom for not paying around Tk250 crore dues to 176 sacked workers.
Advocate Yusuf Ali, who represented the workers, told The Business Standard, "Grameen Telecom has agreed to pay the dues to the workers. Currently, the company is making calculations for paying off the dues. They may pay the workers in a couple of days."
He said Grameen Telecom asked the workers to withdraw all the cases filed against them as a condition for payment.
"That is why the case filed seeking liquidation of the company was withdrawn from the single-member bench of Justice Muhammad Khurshid Alam Sarkar on Monday. The court has been informed that the matter is being settled," said Yusuf Ali.
The workers have also withdrawn 104 cases filed in a Dhaka labour court for recovering these dues, he said.
In a notice signed by Grameen Telecom Managing Director Mohammad Ashraful Hassan, 99 workers were laid off at once without any prior conversation with the union of workers.
The High Court summoned Dr Yunus in this regard after 28 of the discharged workers filed a petition against that notice.
On 4 April 2021, the court directed the company to reappoint those workers.
On 12 September 12 last year, Labour Inspector Arifuzzaman of the Department of Inspection for Factories and Establishments filed a case with Dhaka's third labour court against Dr Yunus and three others for violating labour laws.
Other accused in the case were Ashraful Hasan, managing director of Grameen Telecom, and its directors Nurzahan Begum and Shahjahan.

Playtech has renewed their deal with Sky Betting & Gaming, thus guaranteeing that Sky Vegas Casino will keep on working with an exclusive Playtech Casino. The extension to the long-term partnership with the operator gives Playtech the opportunity to keep the live casino and bingo offerings alive.
The contract renewal will add an online bingo and a specifically designed bingo game and network development. This comes as a logical continuation of the productive partnership which the two companies have established throughout the years and which they continue to develop every single day. It leads to a steady growth every year and both the London-based gaming technology provider Playtech and the gambling company Sky Betting & Gaming are content with the relationship they have.
The new multi-product contract will ensure the further positive development of the brands in a collaboration which is tried and true. Sky Betting & Gaming is known as UK’s fastest growing UK sports betting and gaming operators with many years of experience and projects. Sky Vegas Casino is only one of them, but it already demonstrates its full potential in the casino field.
The casino operator was founded in 2013 and starting with the tiny portfolio of only three games, it had the chance to expand immensely and now it offers more than 220 online slot games, skill-based betting opportunities, online casino experience with live games and classic ones. Earlier this year the operator received the inaugural Playtech Award, recognizing excellence in marketing and innovation.
Now it is expecting to receive all of Playtech’s global licensees and add them to its well-rounded portfolio. As an added feature, the operator was granted exclusive access to a brand new online casino game developed by Playtech for the occasion and £50,000 towards its marketing budget. In April this year, the two companies launched their live casino which operates from the specially built for the purpose Riga studio of Playtech. This furthermore established the name of Playtech as a reliable entity in the gaming world.
Sky Casino was the first site to plug into the suite of live dealer games which come straight from the Latvian venue. In the process of developing the studio in Riga, Playtech kept in close touch with Sky and even managed to specifically design several exclusive Sky Vegas Casino tables with their uniformed dealers, well-fitting the aesthetic Sky is seeking. This result came after months of collaborative research, planning, user testing, development and focusing on the preferences of the customers. For example, there is now an integrated display at the Sky Casino roulette table which shows the number of revolutions the ball has made during each spin.

Basell Owner Buys Shares in Lyondell
9:59 AM MDT | September 5, 2007 | Kerri Walsh
Russian industrialist Leonard Blavatnik, who controls Basell’s owner Access Industries, has bought $175.58 million in shares of Lyondell Chemical for an average of $44.21/share, according to SEC filings. Basell agreed to buy Lyondell for $48/share in July (CW, July 25, p. 8). Blavatnik’s move is in line with plans by other executives to buy shares in their own companies at lower prices than the takeover offers, according to a recent Wall Street Journal article. Such moves signal shareholders that deals will be completed despite tough credit...

Wouldn't it be nice if things always went our way and we never had to face being hurt, betrayed, or ignored? Sure it would. But realistically, when you become an entrepreneur, you heighten the odds of these unwanted experiences simply because of the emotional risks needed to achieve success.
What separates the outrageously successful entrepreneurs from those who struggle is the ability to face these events in a healthy way. Those with a refusal or inability to move on live in constant bitterness, anger, and even self-loathing. Though these powerful emotions can have a crippling affect on anyone, when a leader falls into this self-destructive behavior, the stakes are even higher.
Project: Forgive Yourself
I spoke to Shawne Duperon, a six-time Emmy Award-winning producer, international speaker, incest survivor, and the visionary behind The Project Forgive Foundation, about the value of forgiveness. Duperon knows firsthand how difficult it can be to forgive another's actions, and she also knows that forgiving yourself can feel nearly impossible. Where do you begin when such inconceivable pain has been inflicted? It may seem impossible to do so, but it's critically important.
"When you become mired in blame and anger, you are highly likely to repeat your mistakes, ignore the red flags surrounding your choices, and basically fail as an admirable leader," she says. "Really successful business owners can separate themselves from what's been done to them and take 100 percent of the responsibility for their part in the story. When you can then see and accept your part in the nightmare, the answers to your problems will come."
I think that maybe we shouldn't seek to forgive what has been done to us as much as seek to forgive ourselves for allowing that personal pain to interfere with our need and desire to live life fully.
"Forgiving yourself is one of the hardest things to do," Duperon concedes when I raise this point. "Yet, when you don't forgive yourself, you only perpetuate and relive the damage that's been done."
As an entrepreneur, Duperon has learned the invaluable lesson of forgiveness. With the endorsements and involvement of such notables as visionary leader Archbishop Desmond Tutu; Chicken Soup for the Soul author Jack Canfield; country artist Naomi Judd; and Chrysler Group, she has achieved amazing success in developing her vision. Here's what forgiveness granted her.
- Confidence. "With this notion of forgiveness, I became able to promote without shame, and my confidence level grew," she says. "Now I'm powerful in my sharing, and I can make a difference in my company and the world." It's difficult to take risks when you are holding on to blame and carrying the emotional burden of your past mistakes.
- Perseverance. "My ability to keep going, keep asking for help, and continue to take emotional risks stems from my capacity to grieve my losses and forgive myself. When I got rejected by prospective investors for instance, shame would pop up and stop my progress...until I allowed myself to grieve the loss," she says.
- Responsibility. "The fact is that every drama that's created in our business we generate ourselves," she says. "When a leader finally gets that, that's where the powerful success comes from." Acknowledge and embrace your regrets and anger, and you will find power in that.
Forgiveness, of course, is a long journey, not a linear process. Shock, anger, grief, acceptance, and peace are the phases of forgiveness, but they may come and go--and come back again. Duperon points out that you can find peace with a situation one day, but the next day a similar experience may occur and your anger will resurface. If you're struggling with forgiveness, be patient with yourself. "We move through these phases of forgiveness in no particular order," says Duperon, "but with some practice, forgiveness becomes natural."
You can learn more about deepening your trust in yourself as a leader--even if you do make a wrong choice--at the Project Forgive Authentic Leadership event on Wednesday, May 14, 2014. You can join in person or watch the live stream.

HARRISBURG – The Department of Agriculture and state-related universities were the subjects of Senate Appropriations Committee public hearings on the proposed 2022-23 state budget Thursday.
Gov. Tom Wolf proposed a $45.7 billion budget that would increase spending by $4.5 billion. Based on projections, this will create a $1.3 billion deficit in the following fiscal year and produce a $13 billion deficit by FY 2026-27.
Senate Agriculture and Rural Affairs Committee Chair Elder Vogel (R-47) questioned Gov. Wolf’s plan to zero out animal health budget lines, and discussed avian flu concerns and mental health support for farmers.
Sen. Kristin Phillips-Hill (R-28) told Agriculture Secretary Russell Redding that natural gas is a key ingredient for nitrogen-based fertilizers critical for growing corn, wheat and other crops, and discussed how energy independence is about more than affordable energy.
Tuition at Temple University, Penn State University, the University of Pittsburgh and Lincoln University was a key topic discussed. The committee heard that competing states are taking Pennsylvania students because of the discounts they offer.
Of note was Temple University’s efforts to graduate students in four years, which is critical to making higher education affordable amid rising tuition costs.

Arora, Rachit (1999) EMTP simulation of an active filter operating with weak AC distribution system. Masters thesis, Concordia University.
An AC distribution system has a myriad of loads connected at the system bus. Many of the DC based loads cause disturbance on the ac bus due to high harmonic load currents. Traditionally passive filters are used for filtering these load harmonics. Recent technological advances have enabled the use of high frequency switching devices in the development of active filtering techniques. In this thesis, an active filter topology was selected for the system, and a test system was modeled using EMTP. The objective of active filtering is to meet the harmonic and reactive load locally, and thus removing the harmonic content of source currents. The AF controller based on the on-line power computation scheme was modeled. Tracking control was demonstrated using two control methodologies - hysteresis band control and sliding mode control. A performance comparison was made between the two control schemes, and the impact of various circuit and control parameters on the filtering performance was studied. To assess the transient performance achieved with the control schemes presented, results from EMTP based studies for this distribution system under various AC-DC fault conditions are analyzed.

Shares of Citigroup and Bank of America fell in premarket trade on Friday on the fear that the banks would be nationalized, according to traders.
There's that fear that we nationalize banks and this market gets killed, said Matt McCall, president of Penn Financial Group in Ridgewood, New Jersey
Citigroup slid 5.2 percent while Bank of America lost 5.9 percent.
The Frankfurt-listed shares of the banks also fell, with traders and analysts citing fears that big U.S. banks could be nationalized.

4/6/2017 2:28:00 PM Unopposed races, but new faces on boards
Many of the governing bodies involved in Tuesday's election had no races. That doesn't mean there are not some new faces on local boards.
There were no contested races in Oblong, but the village still has a new mayor and three new trustees.
Teresa Fielder was elected as Oblong's new mayor without opposition. A total of 122 ballots were cast for her.
Jeron Harris, Angela Fear and William Burke Jr. were elected to the village board, also without challenge. Harris had 99 votes, while Fear received 98 and Burke 101.
For Oblong Unit 4 school board, Chad Pusey, Todd Musgrave and Michael Higgins were retained. They received 297, 301 and 275 ballots, respectively.
The situation was similar in Hutsonville. In the Hutsonville village election, Progressive Party candidate Tina Callaway was unopposed for another term as village president, a position commonly referred to as "mayor." She got 107 votes.
Jason Bogard, Ryan Terry and Monte Newlin, also Progressive Party candidates, were elected to three trustee seats. Bogard received 88 votes, while Terry got 96 and Newlin received 86.
For Hutsonville Unit 1 school board, Callaway, Chad Weaver and Chad Guyer were elected. Callaway garnered 194 votes, while Weaver had 209 and Guyer had 215.
Travis Matthews ran for an unexpired two-year term on the school board and received 216 ballots.
In Flat Rock, Gregory L. Bachelor got 41 votes in his unopposed bid for the position of mayor. He ran on the Citizens Party ticket.
Fellow Citizens Party candidates Garry L. Branson, Brian Buttolph and Greg Rich were unopposed for three seat on the village board of trustees. They received 34, 36 and 37 votes, respectively.
In Stoy, a slate of independent candidates had no opposition. Roger L. McKinnley Jr. was elected mayor with 17 ballots and Lisa McKinnley was elected clerk with 17 votes. Janice Catt, John Baud and Alan Woods were elected to three trustee positions. They received 15 votes each.
Four people ran for four terms of different lengths on the Robinson Public Library Board of Trustees.
Allen E. Summers and Michael L. Garrard were elected to six-year terms by votes of 1,546 and 1,331. Wendy Kastner was elected to a four-year term by a vote of 1,863 and Rhonda Moade received 1,770 ballots for a two-year term.
Kristie Elder, Linda Russell and Robert F. Taylor were elected to the Palestine Public Library Board. They received 343, 357 and 268 ballots, respectively.
Raymond Lee Waldroup and Matt Stephens were elected to the LaMotte Township Park District Board. They received 239 and 310 votes, respectively.
No one ran for an open seat on the Hutsonville Township Park District Board. A new commissioner will be appointed to fill the vacancy.
Two incumbents were elected to new six-year-terms on the Illinois Eastern Community Colleges Board, while a third was approved to finish an incomplete term.
Gary Carter, Brenda K. Culver and Jan Ridgely were all unopposed in their bids to continue as IECC trustees.
Carter and Culver ran for full terms, while Ridgely ran for the remaining four years on the term of Marilyn Wolfe, Albion. He was appointed to the board last year following Wolfe's death.
Locally, Carter received 1,748 votes, Culver received 1,813 votes and Ridgely got 2,184.
For the are Regional Office of Education Board of Trustees, Travis Farley of Jasper County and Sheila Mikeworth of Crawford County were elected to six-year terms. Locally, they garnered 1,238 and 2,496 votes.
Marilyn Holt, Richland County, was elected to an unexpired four-year term with 2,159 votes in the county. Julia LaRoche-Law, Lawrence County, garnered 2,088 Crawford County votes en route to winning an unexpired two-year t erm.
Candidates for the Casey-Westfield school board, the Lake Land College Board and the regional school board that oversees Clark and seven other counties also appeared on some ballots in the county where their districts overlap the county's boundaries. None received any votes, however.
Thirty-three county ballots were cast for candidates in the Red Hill school board election.

Kate Middleton and her daughter Princess Charlotte looked identical as they posed at the King's Coronation, and not just because they were wearing matching outfits.
The Princess of Wales, 41, and Princess Charlotte, 8, were photographed looking back over their left shoulder as they pulled the same serious facial expression.
The similarity was pointed out by royal fans, as one person tweeted the two photos side by side and wrote: “The parallel between Princess Charlotte and her mum the Princess of Wales today!”.
One royal fan commented on the comparison and said: “The epitome of a real life beautiful princess and future Queen”, while another said: “Like mother like daughter”.
Another sweet fan commented: “I adore Princess Charlotte, her composure for her age! she's such a credit to the Prince and Princess of Wales”.
The mother-daughter duo looked adorable for the historic occasion in matching designer ivory dresses as they attended the Coronation earlier today.
Kate’s dress incorporated rose, thistle, daffodil and shamrock motifs, which represent England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland respectively.
Princess Charlotte matched her mother's style by also wearing an Ivory Alexander McQueen dress, featuring rose, thistle, daffodil and shamrock motifs.
Over Kate’s dress, she wore a deep blue Royal Victorian Order mantle edged in scarlet. She added to this ensemble with a pair of earrings that once belonged to her late mother-in-law Princess Diana , and the George VI Festoon Necklace , which was a gift from King George VI to his daughter Queen (then Princess) Elizabeth in 1950.
Instead of a tiara, Kate opted for a 3D leaf embroidery headpiece by milliner Jess Collett and Alexander McQueen which was made from silver bullion, finished with silver thread work and features crystal detailing.
Kate's mini-me, Charlotte, wore a very similar headpiece which was also designed by Jess Collett and Alexander McQueen.
Kate has had a close relationship with the house of Alexander McQueen for more than a decade ever since she arrived at her iconic wedding day in a stunning lace wedding dress by Sarah Burton.
In the years that followed, Kate has chosen to wear clothes by the designer on many special occasions, including her children's christening and during her official 40th birthday photos by a Vogue photographer.
While Kate and Charlotte wore traditional coronation dresses, other royals including Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie did not.
Beatrice wore a vibrant pink midi dress, featuring statement puff sleeves, while her sister donned a navy dress and coat.

[FOSS-GPS] Question of reference satellite selection
john at coyotebush.net
Mon Mar 15 14:01:34 EDT 2010
For long measurements, you will want to shift from one reference satellite
As an analogy, double differencing is similar to a surveyor comparing
altitudes between a set of hills. You don't know the absolute altitudes,
but you can figure out how high each hill is relative to the others. To get
the job done, you pick one hill as your benchmark and define the variables
Hill(1)-Hill(benchmark) = x1
Hill(2)-Hill(benchmark) = x2
Hill(benchmark)-Hill(benchmark) = xbenchmark = 0
Based on your survey measurements you create a set of equations: Ax = b
which solves for the relative altitudes. (Since xbenchmark is zero, you
don't include xbenchmark in the equations.)
Now, you decide you want to use a different hill as your benchmark. You
need to redefine your variables and find an equivalent set of equations
based on the new benchmark. It takes some figuring out, but you end up with
a fairly simple procedure based on the following:
xi' = Hill(i) - Hill(newbenchmark)
= [ Hill(i) - Hill(oldbenchmark) ] - [ Hill(new) -
= xi - xnew
If you are more mathematically inclined than I am, you would see the new set
of equations as a linear transform of the old ones, and you would express it
as matrix multiplication.
A second problem you will encounter with long measurements is the repeated
gain and loss of satellites. One solution is to assign a separate ambiguity
variable to each period of time you track a satellite, but over time you
will create an unlimited number of variables. To prevent unlimited growth,
you will need to "eliminate" lost satellites from the equations.

Subject: Re: [FOSS-GPS] Question of reference satellite selection
Well, you have the almanac and ephemeris for all the satellites you can see,
so you can calculate each satellite's future elevations, right? So you could
do something along these lines:
for x = each satellite visible
for time = now to (now+6 hours)
calculate satellite x's elevation at time
if elevation < 10 degrees
print "Satellite x visible until time"
Let's say you started your survey today, at midnight UTC time, that you were
at my location, and that you apply an elevation mask of 10 degrees.
You would see the following satellites, at that time:
SV 2, elevation 28.76
SV 4, elevation 13.53
SV 12, elevation 49.46
SV 14, elevation 36.90
SV 29, elevation 51.25
SV 30, elevation 84.05
SV 31, elevation 38.94
Those satellites would be above the 10 degree elevation cutoff for:
SV 2: 1 hour 57 mins
SV 4: 16 mins
SV 12: 1 hour 40 mins
SV 14: 1 hour 7 mins
SV 29: 4 hours 11 mins
SV 30: 2 hours 52 mins
SV 31: 3 hours 53 mins
Hence, if you simply chose the highest elevation satellite (SV 30) it would
be visible for over two and a half hours, but if you select the right
satellite it can be visible for longer.
I use the highest elevation satellite because my initializations never take
anything like two and a half hours!
Hope this helps!
