Tom C. Van Flandern (1940–2009)
by David W. Dunham and Victor J. Slabinski
Published onDec 01, 2011
Dr. Thomas Charles Van Flandern, an expert in celestial mechanics and cosmology, died January 9, 2009 in Seattle, Washington, of colon cancer. He was 68. Van Flandern was an astronomer at the U.S. Naval Observatory from 1963 to 1983. He developed software to predict and analyze lunar occultations to improve lunar orbital and fundamental star catalog data. In later years he championed increasingly controversial theories. But his 1978 prediction that some asteroids have natural satellites, which was almost universally rejected, was verified when the Galileo spacecraft photographed Dactyl, a satellite of (243) Ida, during its flyby in 1993. Besides astronomy and computers, he had strong interests in biochemistry and nutrition, and he ran a business selling personal computers in the 1980s.
Tom Van Flandern was born June 26, 1940 in Cleveland, Ohio, the first child of Robert F. Van Flandern and Anna Mary Haley. His father, a police officer, left the family when Tom Van Flandern was 5. His mother died when he was 16; he and his siblings then lived with their grandmother, Margery Jobe, until he went to college.
Tom Van Flandern became interested in astronomy as a child. He used his first telescope, purchased with newspaper delivery earnings, to observe lunar occultations, and then learned how to predict them, sparking a life-long passion for dynamical astronomy. While attending St. Ignatius High School, Van Flandern and fellow student Thomas Petrie organized the Cleveland Moonwatch team to observe the first artificial satellites, the only team without an adult organizer.
In 1958, Tom Van Flandern entered Xavier University where he led the Cincinnati Moonwatch team. He learned computer programming at a summer job with General Electric and wrote software to calculate “look angles” from orbital elements. The Cincinnati team became a top producer of observations using these predictions. Tom obtained a B.S. in mathematics from Xavier in 1962. He spent the next year at Georgetown University studying astronomy.
On July 6, 1963, Tom Van Flandern married Barbara Ann Weber in Kentucky. They remained together until his passing 46 years later. They had four children, Michael, Constance, Brian, and Kevin. Also in 1963, Tom began work in the Nautical Almanac Office of the U.S. Naval Observatory in Washington, DC. He became an expert on refining the lunar orbit from timings of lunar occultations, then the best observations for that purpose. He encouraged observations by providing observers with predictions of occultations for their locations. He designed a cable system connecting all observers timing a grazing occultation, to record their observations at a central station. After a 1964 success, four amateur astronomical societies built similar cable systems.
Tom Van Flandern relished efforts to simplify computer calculations. He and Henry Fliegel developed an algorithm to calculate a Julian date from a Gregorian date that would fit on a single IBM card. They published this in a paper, "A machine algorithm for processing calendar dates" in 1968 in the Communications of the Association for Computing Machinery. This was used in countless business applications worldwide. With Kenneth Pulkkinen, he published "Low precision formulae for planetary positions", in Ap. J. Supp. in 1979. The paper set a record for the number of reprints requested from that journal.
Tom Van Flandern earned a PhD in astronomy from Yale University in 1969. His thesis was "A discussion of 1950-1968 occultations of stars by the Moon", advised by Prof. G. M. Clemence. In 1976 Van Flandern asserted that the orbits of 60 long-period comets traced to a common origin, supporting Michael Ovenden's exploded planet hypothesis.
He founded the non-profit Meta Research, Inc. in 1990 to provide support for alternative theories in astronomy. The Meta Research Bulletin reported the newest discoveries and how they presented difficulties to accepted astronomical theories, such as the Big Bang and planetary formation. The Bulletin claimed mainstream scientists preferred making ad hoc corrections to the theories rather than acknowledge fundamental difficulties that might jeopardize their funding.
Tom Van Flandern's advocacy of an artificial origin for the "face on Mars", especially after higher-resolution images were taken in 2001, antagonized many. His questioning of the speed of gravity, first published in a 1998 paper in Physics Letters A, provoked additional attacks from relativists. He showed the same persistence with these controversies that had enabled him to solve complex programming and celestial mechanics problems.
Tom Van Flandern did not reject General Relativity as some have asserted, but rather rejected its geometrical interpretation. He said: "General relativity has a geometric and a field interpretation. If angular momentum conservation is invoked in the geometric interpretation to explain experiments, the causality principle is violated. The field interpretation avoids this problem by allowing faster-than-light propagation in forward time." For more, see http://www.metaresearch.org/cosmology/gravity/speed_limit.asp. Tom Van Flandern strongly attacked some alternative theories, such as Velikovsky’s ideas of recent planetary close approaches, turning one of Velikovsky’s supporters, C. L. Ellenberger, into a strong critic.
If not for these antagonisms, the “mainstream” part of Tom Van Flandern’s work in later years might be better acknowledged, including his "Eclipse Edge" company that organized expeditions to several solar eclipses, and his work with E. Lyytinen on the passage of Earth through cometary debris trails. Their prediction was closest to the observed time of the Leonid storm maximum of November 2001.
Tom Van Flandern held memberships in the International Astronomical Union, the American Astronomical Society (and in its Divisions on Dynamical Astronomy and Planetary Sciences), and several other scientific organizations. He received second prize from the Gravity Research Foundation in 1974 and the Astronomy Award from the Washington Academy of Sciences in 2000. An asteroid, (52266) 1986 AD, was named "Van Flandern" in his memory on February 9, 2009.
Tom Van Flandern's survivors include his wife, Barbara; his brother William; and his four children. He was buried in Sequim, Washington, near his last home. His inquisitive mind, unshakable integrity, and boundless enthusiasm are remembered fondly by his friends and colleagues. He left behind a valuable legacy of astronomical work. More is at http://www.metaresearch.org/home/about meta research/resume.asp and in his 1999 book, “Dark Matter, Missing Planets and New Comets”.

About the Artist Capilla de los Sueños, Barro, Papel Mixed Media Paintings Digital Image Assets Sculptures Mixed Media Drawings Intaglio Original Prints
The works of Carlos Sueños cover painting, printmaking, sculpture, ceramic tiles, video and digital art. The images range from fantastic to nature themes like trees and landscapes. He continues to study ancient human societies in his quest for the origins of the meaning and purpose of art.
Carlos Sueños: (b.1952, San Juan, Puerto Rico) graduated in 1978 in Interdisciplinary Studies (art, dance-theater, mime, anthropology) at the University of Puerto Rico. He also studied at the San Juan Art League and the National Center for the Arts in San Juan. While a student he organized individual and group exhibitions in order to bring the arts to mainstream society.
In 1978 he moved to New York City to continue research in art and anthropology while working at the renowned Printmaking Workshop Inc. under the tutorship of its founder-director Robert Blackburn.
Here he was curator and registrar of the international print collection amassed during 50 years of its existence since 1949 when it was founded by Blackburn, Will Barnet, Romare Bearden, Krishna Reddy, among others.
His works have been exhibited at major galleries and museums in Puerto Rico, the United States, Latin America, and Europe. He is a member (silver medal) of the Academy of Letters, Arts and Science of France and has been awarded among others by:
The National Endowment for the Arts
The New York Foundation for the Arts (2 categories)
Print Biennials in San Juan, P.R. and Maracaibo, Venezuela
International Review, University of Urbino, Italy
Ateneo Puertorriqueño, San Juan, P.R.
His works are included in the collections of major corporations, private collectors and public institutions such as: The Library of Congress, Wash. D.C.; Museo del Barrio, N.Y.; New York Public Library; Omar Rayo Museum, Roldanillo, Colombia; Museums of Modern Art in Mexico City and Caracas, Venezuela; Museum of Art and Anthropology, University of Puerto Rico; Institute of Culture, San Juan, P.R.; Cervantes Institute, Rome, Italy; among others. Sueños was a finalist for the murals of the "1% for the Arts" Public Projects in New York State and was commissioned to create the "walkway installation" by international fashion designer Alexander Julian for the 1997 "Seventh on Sixth Fashion Festival" in New York City's Bryant Park.
Carlos also worked at Museo del Barrio collections in N.Y.; Ollantay Center for the Arts in Queens; as independent curator and traveled nationwide as visiting artist-lecturer. His lectures and interactive wokshops cover themes as varied as the origins of art in prehistory, Francisco Goya's life and works, Latin American art, pre-Columbian art and culture and the impact of the digital arts in today's society.
The artist with Totem: Carite Landscape, 2004, mixed media sculpture on PVC cylinder, 48x6 in.

U.S. pledges $275M to rainforest conservation
by Mongabay.com on 20 November 2009
The U.S. pledged $275 million to a efforts to reduce deforestation in developing countries, reports Reuters.
The commitment was announced by U.S. Ambassador Louis Susman during an event hosted by Prince Charles. The pledge was made in a letter from Vermont Senator Patrick Leahy, chair of the US Senate Subcommittee on State, Foreign Operations and Related Programs, to Prince Charles.
The letter stated the funds are “to protect biodiversity and support sustainable landscapes in fiscal year 2010 … with a focus on protection of tropical forests.”
Tropical forest in Madagascar
According the Reuters, the money would come from the $1.2 billion international assistance fund, although it wasn’t immediately clear how the funds would be dispersed. One possibility is the U.N. REDD Program, a proposed mechanism to compensate developing countries for reducing emissions from deforestation and degradation.
The U.S. has lagged behind other rich-world nations in funding tropical forest conservation in recent years, especially Norway, which has committed more than a billion dollars to forest conservation efforts in Brazil, Guyana, Tanzania, and Congo Basin countries. The Tropical Forest Conservation Act (TFCA), the main mechanism by which the U.S. has funded tropical forest conservation, languished under the Bush Administration, which reduced funding while adding a coral reef conservation mandate, further diluting funds available for tropical forests. The most recent TFCA, passed in May 2009 by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, will provide up to $115 million in debt relief to tropical countries in exchange for commitments to conserve forests and coral reefs.
Norway emerges as champion of rainforest conservation
(03/19/2009) While citizens in western countries have long paid lip service to saving rainforests, Norway has quietly emerged as the largest and most important international force in tropical forest conservation. The small Scandinavian country has committed 3 billion krone ($440 million) a year to the effort, a figure vastly greater than the $100M pledged — but never fully contributed — by the United States under the Tropical Forest Conservation Act (TFCA). Norway now hopes it can help push to include forest conservation in the successor to the Kyoto Protocol by providing funding and fostering cooperation among international actors like the UN and World Bank, as well as developing countries, to fund the creation of an international architecture which makes it possible to incorporate deforestation and degradation into a post-2012 climate regime.
Kerry, Lugar: U.S. has opportunity to lead on climate, forest conservation
(02/10/2009) The United States can reassert itself as a global leader on the environment by supporting an initiative to fight climate change by protecting forests, said leaders from a broad range of political, environmental, development and business communities at a meeting on Capitol Hill Monday. Joined by senators John Kerry (D-MA) and Richard Lugar, the “Avoided Deforestation Partners” coalition called for Congress to include “strong tropical forest protection measures in U.S. climate change legislation” ahead of this December’s climate conference in Copenhagen, Denmark.

IBM Makes Education & Hiring More Inclusive Worldwide with P-TECH Model Expanding Across 28 Countries
Adoption of P-TECH and multilingual support of free IBM Open P-TECH online curricula strengthens education-to-career pathway for underserved communities globally
ARMONK, N.Y., Nov. 17, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- IBM (NYSE: IBM) today announced that P-TECH, a groundbreaking public education model to strengthen education equity and career development opportunities in primarily underserved communities, is now in 28 countries and regions. China is the most recent country to adopt the model, bringing the total of countries so far with P-TECH schools to 28. IBM also added Italian, Korean, Polish, and Turkish languages to the free Open P-TECH online career readiness platform, making technology and professional competencies more accessible to even more young people around the world.
Especially when socioeconomic disparities are exacerbated by the pandemic, P-TECH provides students with a pathway to college and career by enabling students to graduate with high school diplomas, no-cost college associates degrees aligned to industry needs, and workplace experiences, including paid mentorship and internships. Together, the private and public sectors adjust training and education practices to prioritize pathways and skills that allow people to access today's most in-demand jobs.
The first P-TECH school opened in Brooklyn, NY, in 2011 with IBM as its industry partner, in collaboration with New York City Public Schools and The City University of New York. There are now more than 240 P-TECH schools in operation, working with nearly 200 community colleges and more than 600 industry partners, including GLOBALFOUNDRIES, Thomson Reuters, Volkswagen and others. The industry partnerships are crucial in the P-TECH model to bring insight into the skills and qualities needed in prospective employees and also to foster those skills and qualities in students.
The P-TECH model helps to strengthen regional economies and underserved populations with a workforce better prepared for "new collar" jobs -- highly skilled and fast growing careers in areas like cybersecurity, design, mainframe administration and more that don't require traditional college degrees.
P-TECH is proving effective. For example, in the U.S. alone:
Initial graduates earned associates degrees four times faster than the on-time national community college graduation rate.
Student populations in IBM P-TECH schools are at least 40% young women and 90% African American or Hispanic. These numbers will help diversify the tech industry and spur innovation with more inclusive economic growth.
Interim MDRC study results show that the first seven New York City's P-TECH schools are increasing the number of CTE credits that students earn without sacrificing other academic coursework.
"P-TECH responds to one of the greatest needs of every country: to bridge the gap between schools and work in ways that promote education equity," said Grace Suh, IBM Vice President of Education. "These solid public-private partnerships around the globe help create a long-term socioeconomic shift and new vision to build a more inclusive and innovative society."
"P-TECH generates excitement about career opportunities in advanced manufacturing. The model forges important partnerships that bring industry and education closer together," said Tara McCaughey, Lead, Education and Workforce Development, GLOBALFOUNDRIES. "GF is proud to be an industry partner to four P-TECHs in the New York State's Hudson Valley and Greater Capital District regions, providing an important opportunity to talk to students about professional skills and participate in panel discussions about the advanced manufacturing field. The students that complete P-TECH programs are a critical part of the next generation of technicians, future engineers and leaders."
To bring some of the benefits of P-TECH schools to a broader audience, IBM has also created Open P-TECH, a free digital learning platform which extends important components of the P-TECH workplace learning, professional and technical skills curriculum to learners and teachers. More than 130,000 learners and teachers are making use of the platform in more than 130 countries. It is now available in Chinese, English, French, Italian, Korean, Polish, Portuguese, Spanish and Turkish languages.

He was promoted to a chair in 1997, and in 2014, he took up the Herchel Smith Professorship of Organic Chemistry at the University of Cambridge. In 2008, he was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society, and he is an Honorary Member of the Royal Irish Academy. His research focuses on using synthetic supramolecular systems to develop a quantitative understanding of the chemistry of weak non-covalent interactions.
Prof. Gwendolyn Lawrie
University of Queensland, Australia
Gwen Lawrie is a Teaching-Focused Professor in the School of Chemistry and Molecular Biosciences (SCMB) at the University of Queensland (UQ). She is also a Principal Practitioner (Professional Learning & Inclusive Education) with the Institute for Teaching and Learning Innovation at UQ. Her work, at the nexus between chemistry education and higher education research, has enabled the embedding of research outcomes into empirical, evidence-based teaching practices. Gwen is a Fellow of the Royal Australian Chemical Institute, Senior Fellow of the Higher Education Academy and is recent past Chair of the RACI Chemistry Education Division. She has received recognition for her teaching and research through multiple institutional and national awards including the RACI Fensham Medal in 2021.

Philippe Renaud was born in Neuchâtel (Switzerland). After undergraduate study at the University of Neuchâtel, he continued his education at the ETH Zürich through to Ph.D. in 1986 under the supervision of Prof. D. Seebach. In 1987, he was a postdoctoral associate of Prof. M.A. Fox at the University of Texas at Austin. He started in 1988 an independent research program at the University of Lausanne. He moved in 1993 to the University of Fribourg as an associate professor. Since 2001, he is professor of organic chemistry at the University of Bern. His research interests include the development of synthetic methods with particular emphasis on radical reactions and the synthesis of alkaloids and other biologically active compounds.
Prof. Deanna D’Alessandro
Deanna obtained her BSc from James Cook University followed by PhD research with Em/Prof. Richard Keene which received the 2006 RACI Cornforth Medal and a 2007 IUPAC Prize for Young Chemists. Following postdoctoral work with Prof. Jeff Long at the University of California, Berkeley (2007-9) as the Dow Chemical Company Fellow (American-Australian Association) and an 1851 Fellow, she returned to Australia to build her independent research exploring emergent electronic phenomena in framework materials and more recently, their applications in Direct Air Capture of carbon dioxide. She has held various fellowships (L’Oréal Australia for Women in Science Fellowship (2010), ARC QEII Fellowship (2011-16) and an ARC Future Fellowship (2018-)) and is the 2023 RSC Australasian Lecturer.
Prof. Phil Baran
Scripps Research Institute, USA
Phil Baran received his B.S. in chemistry from NYU in 1997, his Ph.D. from The Scripps Research Institute in 2001, and from 2001-2003 he was an NIH-postdoctoral fellow at Harvard. His independent career began at Scripps in the summer of 2003. Phil has published over 220 scientific articles, several patents, and has been the recipient of several ACS awards such as the Corey (2015), Pure Chemistry (2010), Fresenius (2006), and Nobel Laureate Signature (2003), and several international distinctions such as the Hirata Gold Medal and Mukaiyama Prize (Japan), the RSC award in Synthesis (UK), the Sackler Prize (Israel), and the Janssen Prize (Belgium). In 2013 he was named a MacArthur Foundation Fellow, in 2015 he was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, in 2016 he was awarded the Blavatnik National Award, and in 2017, he was elected to the National Academy of Sciences, USA. He co-founded Sirenas Marine Discovery (2012), Vividion Therapeutics (2016), Elsie Biotechnologies (2021), and Elima Therapeutics (2022).The Baran laboratory is committed to identifying areas of chemical synthesis that can have a dramatic impact on the rate of drug discovery and development. This is achieved both through the development of practical total syntheses of complex natural products (such as terpenes, alkaloids, peptides, and oligonucleotides) and by inventing reactions which can dramatically simplify retrosynthesis.
Prof. Megan O’Mara
Prof Megan O’Mara and her research group joined AIBN in April 2022. Megan completed her PhD in Physical Sciences at the Australian National University in 2005 before moving to the University of Calgary, Canada, to take up a Canadian Institutes of Health Research Postdoctoral Fellowship working on membrane protein structural dynamics. Since returning to Australia in 2009, she has held positions and fellowships at both the University of Queensland and the Australian National University. In September 2019 she accepted a two-year appointment Associate Director (Education) at ANU’s Research School of Chemistry. She is an Associate Editor for RSC Advances and Vice-President of the Association of Molecular Modellers of Australasia (AMMA). Megan’s work aims to understand how membrane chemical biology influences the physical properties of the cell membrane to modulates membrane protein function and drug uptake.
Prof. Phil Gale
Phil Gale is Professor and Head of the School (Chemistry) and Associate Dean (International) in the Faculty of Science at the University of Sydney. He also served as Interim Dean of Science at the University of Sydney in 2022. Phil’s research interests focus on the supramolecular chemistry of anionic species and in particular the molecular recognition, sensing and lipid bilayer transport of anions. His research group’s contributions to these areas were recognised in 2018 by the award of the International Izatt-Christensen Award in Macrocyclic and Supramolecular Chemistry.

Time Warner Inc. with Steve Ross as Chairman - Delaware 1991
Beautifullt engraved uncancelled certificate from Time Warner Inc issued in 1991. This historic document was printed by United States Banknote Company and has an ornate border around it with a vignette of an allegorical woman with the New York skyline in the background. This item has the signatures of the Company's Chairman, Steve Ross, President and Secretary and is over 16 years old.
Certificate Vignette Steve Ross (September 17, 1927 - December 20, 1992) was responsible for the 1990 merger of Warner Communications and Time Inc. into the world's largest media and entertainment conglomerate, Time Warner. Ross was born Steven Jay Rechnitz in Brooklyn, New York to Jewish immigrant parents. The family name was changed by Ross's father in 1932. Ross enlisted in the U.S. Navy in June 1945 and was discharged in 1946. Ross later claimed that he suffered a hearing loss due to his combat service but he never served in combat and spent only seven days at sea, mostly taking the USS Hopping to Florida for decommissioning. Ross followed his World War II-era naval service with studies at Paul Smith's College (located in Paul Smiths, New York). Kinney Parking Company was originally a funeral home company which had expanded with the acquisition of New York parking lots, office cleaning firms and construction companies. Joining Kinney when he married the owner's daughter, Carol Rosenthal (in 1954), Ross succeeded in expanding his father-in-law's funeral company. In 1958, he began arranging an alliance between the Manhattan-based funeral business and New Jersey's Kinney System. The companies merged in 1962. After Kinney National Service moved from downtown Newark to 10 Rockefeller Plaza in November, 1962, Ross became the company president. Ross was the co-CEO of Kinney National Company from 1969 to 1972. He became the sole CEO, president and chairman of Warner Communications in 1972 where he did a terrific job. The merger of Time Inc. and Warner Communications, Inc., which began in 1989, was finalized on January 10, 1990. In 1990, Ross took home a record $78.2 million in total pay. When Ross died from prostate cancer at the age of 65 in the last weeks of 1992, Gerald Levin stepped in January 21, 1993, as Time Warner's sole CEO. He is inducted into the National Soccer Hall of Fame in 2003, as one of the founders of the New York Cosmos. His second wife was the socialite Amanda Burden. He is buried in Green River Cemetery in East Hampton (town), New York. Donations from his estate were to establish schools at the Ross School at University of Michigan, East Hampton, New York and New York City.
Time Warner Inc. (NYSE: TWX) is a media conglomerate headquartered in New York City, with major operations in film, television, publishing, Internet service and telecommunications. Among its subsidiaries are four major companies: Time Inc., AOL, Warner Bros. Entertainment and TBS (Turner Broadcasting System). Warner Communications was established in 1972 when Kinney National Company spun off its non-entertainment assets, due to a financial scandal over its parking operations. It was the parent company for Warner Bros. Pictures and Warner Music Group during the 1970s and 1980s. It also owned DC Comics and Mad, as well as a majority stake in Garden State National Bank (an investment it was ultimately required to sell pursuant to requirements under the Bank Holding Company Act). Initial divestiture efforts led by Garden State CEO Charles A. Agemian were blocked by Garden State board member William A. Conway in 1978; a revised transaction was later completed in 1980. Bob Kerstein went to work for Warner Bros. in 1980. Warner made considerable profits (and later losses) with Atari, which it owned from 1976 to 1984. In the 1970s, Warner expanded under the guidance of CEO Steve Ross and formed a joint venture with American Express, named Warner-Amex Satellite Entertainment, which held cable channels including MTV, Nickelodeon and Showtime. Warner bought out American Express's half in 1984, and sold the venture a year later to Viacom, which renamed it MTV Networks. In February 1983, Warner expanded their interests to baseball. Under the direction of Ceasar P. Kimmel, executive vice president, bought 48 percent of the Pittsburgh Pirates for $10 million. It then put up its share for sale in November 1984 following losses of $6 million. The team's majority owner, John Galbreath, soon followed suit after learning of Warner's actions. In 1987, it was announced that Warner Communications and Time Inc. were to merge. The last thing Warner did before the merger closed in 1989 was to buy out Lorimar-Telepictures. In early 1990, the combined companies were named Time Warner. This company subsequently acquired Ted Turner's Turner Broadcasting System in October 1996. Time Warner had also been owner of the Six Flags Theme Parks chain during the 1990s after near bankruptcy. It sold all Six Flags parks and properties to Oklahoma based Premier Parks on April 1st, 1998. Some theme park insiders argue that Six Flags was much better off under Time Warner ownership.[citation needed] America Online merger In 2000, a new company called AOL Time Warner was created when AOL purchased Time Warner. The deal, announced in 2000, employed a merger structure in which each original company merged into a newly created entity. When the deal closed in January 2001, the shareholders of AOL owned 55% of the new company, AOL Time Warner, while Time Warner shareholders owned only 45%, meaning that AOL had effectively acquired Time Warner. The Federal Trade Commission cleared the deal on December 14, 2000, and gave final approval on January 11, 2001; the company completed the merger later that day. The deal was also approved by the Federal Communications Commission and the European Union. There has been some speculation about the motivations of each party. Some observers believed that Time Warner was struggling to integrate "new media" into its business. At the time of the announcement, Time Warner executives spoke of the need to "digitize their business." They were also eager to be attached to an dot-com company, as the dot-com bubble was near its peak. A merger with AOL provided a huge subscriber base of Internet users, along with online marketing know-how. While some business journalists have reported that AOL executives felt that AOL stock was severely overvalued and that a big merger was the only way to prevent a collapse in valuation, it is more likely that AOL executives sought to diversify the assets of the company beyond the Internet and online sectors. In addition, executives at AOL were quite concerned about the prospect of increased competition with Microsoft and sought to enlarge the company as a defensive measure. Finally, AOL executives believed that the integration of AOL's Internet distribution and Time Warner's content would create a tremendous amount of value for both sides of the company. Media companies felt that the vertically integrated AOL Time Warner would unfairly promote its own content within its outlets. This fear existed before the merger, but Time Warner was thought to be a conglomeration of very independent divisions. It was feared that this would change with the influence of AOL executives. Consumer advocates were concerned with the threat of product tying between Time Warner's cable TV systems and AOL's Internet service. Some consumer groups saw a possible attempt to corner the Internet-over-TV market, whereby AOL could force all of the Time Warner cable subscribers to use AOL branded Internet-TV. Smaller internet service providers feared that AOL would tie its Internet service to Time Warner's cable modem service. Some ISPs wanted the opportunity to use Time Warner's cable network as a common carrier for their services, which competed with AOL. AOL and Time Warner pledged not to violate any antitrust regulations. Many observers were shocked that a large, diversified media conglomerate was being acquired by a much smaller company. Market conditions at the time of the merger placed a greater premium on Internet-related stocks than on traditional media stocks. AOL's high market capitalization relative to that of Time Warner made the acquisition possible. The deal has since become a symbol of the Dot com bubble and is widely regarded as a disaster, with a $2.4 billion shareholder settlement, a further $600 million set aside and a $5 billion price boosting share buyback program announced on August 3, 2005. AOL CEO Steve Case became executive chairman of the new company, while Time Warner CEO Gerald Levin retained the CEO title. Post-merger After the merger, the profitabilty of the ISP division (America Online) decreased. Meanwhile, the market valuation of similar independent internet companies drastically fell. As a result, the value of the America Online division dropped significantly. This forced a goodwill write down, causing AOL Time Warner to report a loss of $99 billion in 2002 - at the time, the largest loss ever reported by a company. In response to the huge loss in 2002, the company dropped the "AOL" from its name, and removed Steve Case as executive chairman in favor of Richard Parsons. Case resigned from the Time Warner board on October 31, 2005.[2] Since the merger, a number of transactions have taken place: The professional wrestling company WCW was sold to competitor WWE for $7 million. The Atlanta Hawks, Atlanta Thrashers, and operating rights to Philips Arena were sold in mid-2003. The fifty percent share in the cable channel Comedy Central was sold to Viacom. Warner Music Group was sold to a group of investors led by Edgar Bronfman, Jr. in late 2003. AOL/Netscape's longrunning litigation against Microsoft was settled out of court. Time Warner announced that it was shutting down its CNNfn financial information channel and disposing of its share in Google (2004). On March 31, 2006 Time Warner sold the Time Warner Book Group to French publisher Hachette Livre, of the Lagardere group. On February 7, 2006, a group led by corporate raider Carl Icahn and Lazard Frères CEO Bruce Wasserstein unveiled a 343-page proposal calling for the breakup of Time Warner into four companies and stock buybacks totaling approximately $20 billion. On February 17, 2006, the Icahn-lead group agreed with Time Warner to not contest the re-election of TW's slate of board members at the 2006 shareholders meeting. In exchange for the Icahn group's cooperation, Time Warner will buy back up to $20 billion of stock, nominate more independent members to the board of directors, cut $1 billion of costs by 2007, and continue discussions with the Icahn group over their proposal, particularly on the future of Time Warner Cable. On February 23, 2006, Time Warner announced that Turner South, a regional sports and entertainment network in the south, will be sold to News Corp.'s Fox Cable Networks group. On September 12, 2006, Time Inc. announced that Time4 Media, a group of men's interest magazines including Popular Science and Outdoor Life was to be put up for sale. The sale will include 18 publications (including three parenting-related titles). The CW Television Network On January 24, 2006, CBS Corporation and Time Warner announced that they were to create a new broadcast network, The CW Television Network. The network officially debuted on September 18, 2006. The network formally debuted on September 20 with the 2 hour premiere of America's Next Top Model. The network is the result of a merger of The WB Television Network (a Time Warner holding) and UPN (a CBS Corporation holding). CBS Corporation and Time Warner will each own 50% of the network. Tribune Broadcasting (previously owned a 25% stake on The WB) and CBS Corporation will contribute its stations as new network affiliates. Time Warner Cable has since reexpanded and offers the following services: Road Runner High-Speed Online - Time Warner's residential- and commercial-grade high-speed Internet service provider Time Warner Cable - features advanced video technologies such as Video On Demand and digital video recorders Digital Phone - an unlimited local and long distance telephone service that runs over the Time Warner Cable hybrid fiber-coax network.

Qianhai unveils latest opening-up achievements
Chang Zhipeng
THE Authority of Qianhai Shenzhen-Hong Kong Modern Service Industry Cooperation Zone (Qianhai Authority) unveiled Sunday its latest opening-up achievements and seven major platforms under construction to promote the area’s development.
Huang Xiaopeng, executive vice director of Qianhai Authority, released the achievements at a press conference held at the Qianhai International Convention and Exhibition Center.
According to Huang, Qianhai is accelerating building itself into a hub for modern service industry development through several endeavors, including implementing the Qianhai Global Service Providers program, rolling out policies favoring the development of venture capital, financing and leasing, natural gas trade, cross-border e-commerce, tax-related service and high-end think tanks. It has attracted 30 new Fortune 500 companies to invest in Qianhai and introduced the country’s first dual-license bank, the first wholly foreign-owned fund sales company and the first financial holding company in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area to settle in Qianhai.
Qianhai also strives to serve as the “first choice” for Hong Kong people to integrate into the country’s overall development. It has deepened cooperation with its Hong Kong counterparts in 13 fields such as finance, shipping and trade, and has constructed a number of platforms including the Qianhai Shenzhen-Hong Kong International Financial Town, Qianhai Shenzhen-Hong Kong International Legal-services District, and Qianhai International Talent Hub.
Qianhai also published nine practical efforts benefiting Hong Kong people’s development in the area. In the first 10 months of this year, the actual use of Hong Kong capital was US$4.638 billion, up by 10.9% annually.
To serve as an experimental platform for innovation and comprehensively deepening reform, Qianhai focuses on institutional innovations to expand the “Qianhai Model” it developed. Recently, Qianhai rolled out another 70 innovation measures, bringing the total number to 755. Among the measures, 72 have been promoted and adopted nationwide. According to the institutional innovation index released by Sun Yat-sen University, Qianhai ranked first among all free trade zones in China.
Qianhai is also speeding up its pace to become a hub for opening up and a new international urban center. From January to October, the import and export volume of Qianhai Comprehensive Bonded Zone reached 188.05 billion yuan (US$26.98 billion), up by 54.9% year on year. Several major events, such as the China International Medical Equipment Fair (CMEF) and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) Youth Technology and Innovation Forum have chosen Qianhai as the host location, which have strengthened the area’s competitiveness for international cooperation. Qianhai also built two international schools and introduced four medical establishments from Hong Kong and Macao to provide high-end education and medical services and construct a greener, more convenient, safer and smarter urban area through a series of projects such as the Qianhai Stone Park, Qianhai Shenzhen-Hong Kong Plaza and National (Shenzhen Qianhai) New-type Internet Exchange Point.
At the event, Qianhai also unveiled the Shenzhen Cross-border Trade Big Data Platform and the six agglomeration zones it is planning to construct, including the agglomeration zones for venture capital, natural gas trade companies, financing and leasing, cross-border e-commerce, tax-related services and high-end think tanks.
Yang Buxiang, chairman of Asia-Pacific Pengsheng Finance and Taxation Group, said that Qianhai is home to many high-end industries, which is a huge opportunity for the tax-related service industry.
Wu Haibo, chairman of Shenchuangjian Holdings Group, said, “Qianhai has obvious advantages in terms of its location. After goods from all over China arrive at the Shenzhen Bao’an International Airport, they can be transferred to Hong Kong through Qianhai, and then transported by air around the world. The establishment of a cross-border e-commerce agglomeration zone in Qianhai will connect all the upstream and downstream business forms of the e-commerce industry in the area, and the entire cross-border e-commerce industry in Qianhai will usher in new industrial upgrading and transformation opportunities.”

SAH Archipedia Highlights: Black History Month
by SAH News | Jan 31, 2023
The following selection of SAH Archipedia building entries focus on this year’s theme, “Black Resistance,” for Black History Month. For more on this year’s theme, please visit the Association for the Study of African American Life and History.
Hayti Heritage Center (St. Joseph’s AME Church)
Photograph by Ildar Sagdejev, CC BY-SA 4.0
St. Joseph’s AME Church, now the Hayti Heritage Center, is the symbolic cornerstone of Durham’s African American community. Following the Civil War, a neighborhood of African American freedmen known as Hayti grew on the southern side of the railroad tracks that ran along the edge of downtown Durham. The community was economically and culturally independent of Durham in the Jim Crow era and largely self-sufficient with prominent commercial districts. St. Joseph’s AME was an important meeting place and rally location during the civil rights movement, well into the late 1960s. READ MORE
Robert Russa Moton Museum (Moton High School)

Moton High School was the first building constructed for the secondary education of African American children in Virginia’s Prince Edward County. The school was the scene of an opening chapter in the civil rights movement. On April 23, 1951, Barbara R. Johns led fellow students in a strike to protest insufficient funding and crowded conditions in the facility, including classrooms in temporary wooden buildings behind the single-story brick school. The strike resulted in Thurgood Marshall and the NAACP including Prince Edward County in the case for racial integration in U.S. public schools, ultimately heard by the Supreme Court as Brown v. Board of Education. READ MORE
Edmund Pettus Bridge

As the starting point for the historic Voting Rights March from Selma to Montgomery, the Edmund Pettus Bridge is an iconic symbol of the African American struggle for equality under U.S. law. It was here on March 7, 1965, that Alabama State Troopers attacked some 600 civil rights activists led by Dr. Martin Luther King in a violent incident that came to be known as “Bloody Sunday.” READ MORE

The former F.W. Woolworth Department Store, now the International Civil Rights Center and Museum, was the site of the 1960 Greensboro sit-ins, a series of nonviolent protests that were among the most influential events in the civil rights movement. READ MORE
Monument Avenue

Monument Avenue exemplifies the complex history of Virginia, and Richmond in particular, in its connection to slavery, the Civil War, and decades of de jure and de facto segregation in the public realm. The Avenue and its Confederate statues have been the subject of a decades-long debate over their appropriateness, but recent protests, sparked by the murder of George Floyd in May 2020 and fueled by the subsequent anti-racism protests, finally led to the removal of these statues by 2022.

Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) Finance
Improving SMEs’ access to finance and finding innovative solutions to unlock sources of capital.
Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) play a major role in most economies, particularly in developing countries. SMEs account for the majority of businesses worldwide and are important contributors to job creation and global economic development. They represent about 90% of businesses and more than 50% of employment worldwide. Formal SMEs contribute up to 40% of national income (GDP) in emerging economies. These numbers are significantly higher when informal SMEs are included. According to our estimates, 600 million jobs will be needed by 2030 to absorb the growing global workforce, which makes SME development a high priority for many governments around the world. In emerging markets, most formal jobs are generated by SMEs, which create 7 out of 10 jobs. However, access to finance is a key constraint to SME growth, it is the second most cited obstacle facing SMEs to grow their businesses in emerging markets and developing countries.
SMEs are less likely to be able to obtain bank loans than large firms; instead, they rely on internal funds, or cash from friends and family, to launch and initially run their enterprises. The International Finance Corporation (IFC) estimates that 65 million firms, or 40% of formal micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in developing countries, have an unmet financing need of $5.2 trillion every year, which is equivalent to 1.4 times the current level of the global MSME lending. East Asia And Pacific accounts for the largest share (46%) of the total global finance gap and is followed by Latin America and the Caribbean (23%) and Europe and Central Asia (15%). The gap volume varies considerably region to region. Latin America and the Caribbean and the Middle East and North Africa regions, in particular, have the highest proportion of the finance gap compared to potential demand, measured at 87% and 88%, respectively. About half of formal SMEs don’t have access to formal credit. The financing gap is even larger when micro and informal enterprises are taken into account.
Formal MSME Finance Gap in Developing Countries
A key area of the World Bank Group’s work is to improve SMEs’ access to finance and find innovative solutions to unlock sources of capital.
Our approach is holistic, combining advisory and lending services to clients to increase the contribution that SMEs can make to the economy including underserved segments such as women owned SMEs.
Advisory and Policy Support for SME finance mainly includes diagnostics, implementation support, global advocacy and knowledge sharing of good practice. For example we provide;
Financial sector assessments to determine areas of improvement in regulatory and policy aspects enabling increased responsible SME access to finance
Implementation support of initiatives such as development of enabling environment, design and set up of credit guarantee schemes
Improving credit infrastructure (credit reporting systems, secured transactions and collateral registries, and insolvency regimes) which can lead to greater SME access to finance.
Introducing innovation in SME finance such as e-lending platforms, use of alternative data for credit decisioning, e-invoicing, e-factoring and supply chain financing.
Policy work, analytical work, and other Advisory Services can also be provided in support of SME finance activities.
Advocacy for SME finance at global level through participating and supporting G20 Global Partnership for Financial Inclusion, Financial Stability Board, International Credit Committee for Credit Reporting on SME Finance related issues.
Knowledge management tools and flagship publications on good practice, successful models and policy frameworks
Lending Operations:
SME Lines of Credit provide dedicated bank financing – frequently for longer tenors than are generally available in the market – to support SMEs for investment, growth, export, and diversification.
Partial Credit Guarantee Schemes (PCGs) – the design of PCGs is crucial to SMEs’ success, and support can be provided to design and capitalize such facilities.
Early Stage Innovation Finance provides equity and debt/quasi-debt to start up or high growth firms which may otherwise not be able to access bank financing.
Results of Our Work
Early-Stage SME Finance
In Lebanon, the Innovative Small and Medium Enterprises (iSME) project is a $30 million investment lending operation providing equity co-investments in innovative young firms in addition to a grant funding window for seed stage firms. As of August 2019, iSME’s co-investment fund has invested $10.23 million across 22 investments and has been able to leverage $25.47 million in co-financing, demonstrating its ability to crowd in private sector financing and expand the market for early stage equity finance in Lebanon. To date, 60 out of 174 grantees had leveraged the iSME funding to raise a total of $13.1 million from various funding sources, a leverage ratio of 5.3 times. Overall, stakeholders’ consultations suggest that the iSME project could play an even larger role in the future financing of the Venture Capital (VC) sector by supporting existing VCs and emerging players, including increasing attention on a fund of funds approach, which could also cover growth funds (later stage and private equity).
In India, our MSME Growth, Innovation and Inclusive Finance Project improved access to finance for MSMEs in three vital but underserved segments: early stage/startups, services, and manufacturing. A credit line of $500 million, provided to the Small Industry Development Bank of India (SIDBI), was designed to provide an affordable longer-term source of funding for underserved MSMEs. Technical assistance of about $3.7 million complemented the lending component and focused on capacity building of SIDBI and the participating financial institutions (PFIs). In addition to directly financing MSMEs, disbursing a total of $265 million in loans, the project pushed the frontiers of MSME financing through the development of innovative lending methods that reduced turnaround time, reached more underserved MSMEs, and crowded in more private sector financing. It also reached new clients, women-owned MSMEs, and MSMEs in low-income states. The project supported SIDBI to scale-up of the Fund of Funds for Startups, which aims to indirectly disburse $1.5 billion to startups by 2025. SIDBI’s “contactless lending” platform, a digital MSME lending aggregator and matchmaking platform, has crowded in $1.9 billion of private sector financing for MSMEs, making it the largest online lender in India.
In Jordan, two World Bank Group’s lines of credit aim to increase access to finance for MSMEs and ultimately contribute to job creation. The $70 million line of credit encouraged the growth and expansion of new and existing enterprises, increasing outreach to MSMEs, 58% of which were located outside of Amman and 73% were managed by women. The line of credit directed 22% of total funds to start-ups. The project financed 8,149 MSMEs, creating 7,682 jobs, of which 79% employed youth and 42% hired women. The additional financing of $50 Million is progressing well towards achieving its intended objective. $45.2 million has been on-lent to 3,345 MSMEs through nine participating banks. The project is especially benefiting women, who represent 77% of project beneficiaries, and youth (48% of project beneficiaries), and increasing geographical outreach, as 65% of MSMEs are in Governorates outside of Amman.
In Nigeria, the Development Finance Project supports the establishment of the Development Bank of Nigeria (DBN), a wholesale development finance institution that will provide long-term financing and partial credit guarantees to eligible financial intermediaries for on-lending to MSMEs. The project also includes technical assistance to DBN and participating commercial banks in support of downscaling their operations to the underserved MSME segment. As of May 2019, the Development Bank of Nigeria credit line to PFIs for on-lending to MSMEs has disbursed US$243.7 million, reaching nearly 50,000 end-borrowers, of which 70% were women, through 7 banks and 10 microfinance banks.
Partial Credit Guarantees
In Morocco, the MSME Development project aimed to improve access to finance for MSMEs by supporting the provision of credit guarantees by enabling the provider of partial credit guarantees in the Moroccan financial system to scale up its existing MSME guarantee products and introduce a new guarantee product geared towards the very small enterprises (VSEs). As a result of the project, the number and volume of MSME loans are estimated to have increased by 88% and 18%, respectively, since the end of 2011. Cumulative volume of loans backed by the guarantees during the life of the project is estimated at $3.28 billion. With significantly increased lending supported by guarantees, PFIs were able to continue building their knowledge of MSME customers, refining their systems to serve them more effectively and efficiently. Owing to guarantees, many first-time borrowers were able to generate credit history, which made it easier for them to obtain loans in future.
Supporting Women-Owned SMEs
In Ethiopia, the Women Entrepreneurship Development Project (WEDP) is an IDA operation providing loans and business training for growth-oriented women entrepreneurs in Ethiopia. After identifying a persistent ‘missing middle’ financing gap for women entrepreneurs in Ethiopia, WEDP launched as a microfinance institutions’ (MFIs) upscaling operation, helping Ethiopia’s leading MFIs introduce larger, individual-liability loan products tailored to women entrepreneurs. WEDP loans are complemented through provision of innovative, mindset-oriented business training to women entrepreneurs. As of October 2019, more than 14,000 women entrepreneurs took loans and over 20,000 participated in business training provided by WEDP. 66% of WEDP clients were first-time borrowers. As a result of the project, participating MFIs increased the average loan size by 870% to $11,500, reduced the collateral requirements from an average of 200% of the value of the loan to 125%, and started disbursing $30.2 million of their own funds as WEDP loans. The average WEDP loan has resulted in an increase of over 40% in annual profits and nearly 56% in net employment for Ethiopian women entrepreneurs.
In Bangladesh, the Access to Finance for Women SMEs Project aims to create an enabling environment to expand access to finance to women SMEs (WSME) by supporting the establishment of credit guarantee scheme (CGS), issuance of SME Finance Policy, and strengthening capacity of the regulator and sector. The project supported the issuance of Bangladesh’s maiden SME Finance Policy: stepping stone for boosting SME financing. Bangladesh’s first comprehensive SME Finance Policy was launched in September 2019 through concerted efforts in high-level upstream work, enhancement of the regulator’s capacity, and formulation of key recommendations with a sharper gender lens. In Bangladesh, $2.8 billion financing gap prevails in the MSME sector, where 60% of women SME’s financing needs are unmet, and lack of access to collateral is one of the key hindrances. Bangladesh lacked a single policy with systemic plan to enhance SME finance. With nearly 10 million SMEs contributing to 23% of the GDP, 80% of jobs in the industries sector and 25% of the total labor force, the SME Finance Policy will play a pivotal role in enhance SME financing.
In Ethiopia and Guinea, the World Bank Group is supporting the local governments in creating an enabling framework which is conducive to launching and growing leasing operations, as well as attracting investors, to increase access to finance for SMEs. It is doing so by working at the macro, mezzo, and micro levels, supporting the governments with legal and regulatory reforms, and working with industry players to create technical partnerships and increase market awareness and capacity. In Ethiopia, the project generated a $200 million credit facility supporting 7 leasing intuitions and introducing 4 new leasing products into the market: hire purchase, finance lease, microleasing and agrileasing. As of June 2019, 7,186 MSMEs have accessed finance valued at over $147 million. The project in Guinea supported the adoption of the national leasing law and the accompanying prudential guidelines for leasing, which in turn, have helped 3 companies to launch leasing operations. To date, these institutions have supported 31 SMEs through the disbursement of leases valued at $25 million.
Leveraging our expert knowledge, we work globally with public stakeholders and private sector intermediaries in partnership with other multilateral and bilateral development organizations to support SME Finance development in emerging markets and developing countries.

Las Vegas Businessman Sentenced to Prison for $5M Fraud Scheme
By TheNevadaGlobeStaff, January 9, 2023 1:09 am
LAS VEGAS – A Las Vegas business owner and operator was sentenced to 34 months in prison and two years of supervised release after pleading guilty to wire fraud for falsely soliciting more than $5 million in funding for his digital ads business.
According to court filings, Robert Cortez Marshall, 43, ran a Ponzi scheme between January 2014 and April 2015, collecting over $5 million from more than 200 unknowing investors for his company R.B.J. Generational Wealth Management LLC d/b/a Adz on Wheelz.
He devised a deception scheme in which he falsely claimed that: (1) Adz on Wheelz owned and operated a fleet of luxury vehicles that could be customized for digital advertising; (2) Adz on Wheelz had already received millions of dollars in contracts from advertisers; (3) investors would receive a guaranteed weekly royalty payment; and (4) investors could cancel at any time or receive a refund of their investment.
Marshall, in reality, would use funds raised from new investors to make “royalty payments” to previous investors. He allegedly used investor monies for personal needs and transferred investor funds to other accounts under his control. Approximately $3.5 million was lost by investors as a result of this fraud.
“The defendant wined and dined his investors and promised annual returns on investments of more than 200%,” said U.S. Attorney Jason M. Frierson for the District of Nevada. “The United States Attorney’s Office is dedicated to prosecuting individuals who exploit and defraud others for profit.”
“While financial crimes such as Ponzi schemes are not violent, they are certainly not victimless,” stated FBI Special Agent in Charge Spencer L. Evans. “Under the appearance of an established firm Mr. Marshall sought investments from individuals and earned their trust, swindling more than 200 victims out of more than $5 million for his personal benefit. The FBI will continue to collaborate with our partners to investigate financially destructive scams and bring fraud victims to justice.”
The FBI investigated the matter. The case was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorneys Jim Fang and Tony Lopez.

United States, Peru sign trade agreement
February 20, 2008 by Lindsey Warner
A Trade Agreement reached between the United States and Peru will expand export opportunities for U.S. farmers, ranchers, manufacturers and service providers, U.S. Trade Representative Susan Schwab said after the trade pact’s signing.
President George Bush and Peruvian President Alan Garcia signed the free trade agreement between their countries Dec. 14.
Currently, the U.S. and Peru enjoy a two-way trade relationship of nearly $8.8 billion dollars.
Upon implementation of the U.S.-Peru Trade Promotion Agreement, 80 percent of U.S. exports of consumer and industrial goods to Peru will enter duty-free immediately, with remaining tariffs phased out over 10 years. Additionally, more than two-thirds of current U.S. farm exports will become duty-free immediately.
The trade agreement will level the playing field in a trade relationship that has provided duty-free access to Peruvian products under preference programs such as the Andean Trade Preference Act (ATPA) and the Generalized System of Preferences (GSP). Peru’s people will be able to continue this economic growth and enjoy greater economic and political stability by locking in Peru’s trade relationship with the largest market in the world.
North Dakota exported about $2 million in goods to Peru last year. The state’s top exports to Peru include machinery and value added crops. Peru is a growing market for U.S. products. U.S. goods exports have increased almost 50 percent in the past 10 years. Current U.S. goods exports are more than $2billion per year.
The trade agreement’s benefits include:
• New Opportunities for U.S. Farmers and Ranchers: More than two-thirds of current U.S. farm exports will become duty-free immediately. Tariffs on most U.S. farm products will be phased out within 15 years (many immediately or within 5 years), with all tariffs eliminated in 17 years. In addition, Peru agreed to eliminate its price band system on trade with the United States, and the United States and Peru resolved a number of significant sanitary and phytosanitary (SPS) and technical standards issues that had impeded or blocked U.S. exports of beef, pork, poultry, and rice.
• Strong Protections for U.S. Investors: The agreement establishes a secure, predictable legal framework for U.S. investors operating in Peru. All forms of investment are protected under the Agreement. U.S. investors will enjoy in almost all circumstances the right to establish, acquire and operate investments in Peru on an equal footing with local investors.
• Expanded Access to Services Markets: Peru will accord substantial market access across its entire services regime including financial services. Peru has agreed to eliminate measures that require U.S. firms to hire national rather than U.S. professionals and measures requiring the purchase of local goods. Peru also agreed that both mutual funds and pension funds in Peru will be allowed to use portfolio managers in the U.S.
• Greater Protection for Intellectual Property Rights: The agreement provides for improved standards for the protection and enforcement of a broad range of intellectual property rights, which are consistent, both with U.S. standards of protection and enforcement and with emerging international standards. Such improvements include state-of-the-art protections for digital products such as U.S. software, music, text, and video; stronger protection for U.S. patents, trademarks and test data, including an electronic system for the registration and maintenance of trademarks; and further deterrence of piracy and counterfeiting of criminalizing end-user piracy.
• Internationally-recognized Labor Rights: The agreement includes an enforceable reciprocal obligation for the countries to adopt and maintain in their laws and practice the principles concerning the fundamental labor rights as stated in the 1998 ILO Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work, including a prohibition on the worst forms of child labor. Neither Party may waive or derogate from the laws that implement this obligation in a manner affecting trade or investment. There is also an enforceable obligation to effectively enforce labor laws related to those rights and to working conditions. These labor obligations are subject to the same dispute settlement procedures and enforcement mechanisms as commercial obligations. The Agreement also establishes a Cooperative Mechanism for the governments to develop cooperative activities aimed at promoting and advancing fundamental labor rights.
• Commitments and Cooperation to Protect the Environment: The agreement commits parties to effectively enforce their own domestic environmental laws and adopt, maintain and implement laws, regulations and all other measures to fulfill obligations under the seven covered multilateral environmental agreements (MEAs). All obligations in the Environment Chapter are subject to the same dispute settlement procedures and enforcement mechanisms as commercial obligations. The Chapter includes a groundbreaking Annex on Forest Sector Governance, addressing the environmental and economic consequences of trade associated with illegal logging and illegal trade in wildlife, and provides for concrete steps that the Parties will take to enhance forest sector governance and promote legal trade in timber products.
• Fair and Open Government Procurement: U.S. suppliers are granted non-discriminatory rights to bid on contract from a broad range of Peruvian government ministries, agencies, public enterprises, and regional governments. The Agreement requires the use of fair and transparent procurement procedures, such as advance notice of purchase and timely and effective bid review procedures.
• An Open and Competitive Telecommunications Market: Users of the telecom network are guaranteed reasonable and non-discriminatory access to the network. This prevents local firms from having preferential or “first right” of access to telecom networks. U.S. phone companies obtain the right to interconnect with Peruvian dominant suppliers’ fixed networks at nondiscriminatory and cost-based rates.
• Increased Transparency: The Agreement’s dispute settlement mechanisms provide for open public hearings, public access to documents, and the opportunity for third parties to submit views. Transparency in customs operations will aid express delivery shipments and will require more open and public processes for customs rulings and administration. For customs procedures, Peru commits to publish laws and regulations on the Internet, and will ensure procedural certainty and fairness. Peru also committed to make public its response to significant comments received on proposed technical regulations.
• Dispute Settlement: Core obligations, including labor and environment provisions, are subject to the dispute settlement mechanism of the Agreement.

Timeline of Computer History
Fernando Corbató with MIT's IBM 7090
Compatible Time-Sharing System (CTSS) is Demonstrated
Software & Languages
The increasing number of users needing access to computers in the early 1960s leads to experiments in timesharing computer systems. Timesharing systems can support many users – sometimes hundreds – by sharing the computer with each user. CTSS was developed by the MIT Computation Center under the direction of Fernando Corbató and was based on a modified IBM 7090, then later 7094, mainframe computer. Programs created for CTSS included RUNOFF, an early text formatting utility, and an early inter-user messaging system that presaged email. CTSS operated until 1973.
IBM Stretch
IBM 7030 (“Stretch”) completed
IBM´s 7000 series of mainframe computers are the company´s first to use transistors. At the top of the line was the Model 7030, also known as "Stretch." Nine of the computers, which featured dozens of advanced design innovations, were sold, mainly to national laboratories and major scientific users. A special version, known as HARVEST, was developed for the US National Security Agency (NSA). The knowledge and technologies developed for the Stretch project played a major role in the design, management, and manufacture of the later IBM System/360--the most successful computer family in IBM history.
IBM 1401
IBM Introduces 1400 series
The 1401 mainframe, the first in the series, replaces earlier vacuum tube technology with smaller, more reliable transistors. Demand called for more than 12,000 of the 1401 computers, and the machine´s success made a strong case for using general-purpose computers rather than specialized systems. By the mid-1960s, nearly half of all computers in the world were IBM 1401s.
Ferranti Sirius magnetostrictive delay line
Magnetostrictive delay lines
The Ferranti Sirius is announced. The Sirius was a small, low-cost business computer using a simple programming language. Its main memory was a magnetostrictive delay line. The medium here was a thin strip of special metal rolled into a coil, with transducers at either end. Like all delay lines, bits were fed into one end, detected at the other, and continuously recirculated. Although this type of delay line was considered to be somewhat slow, its low cost made it attractive to computer designers.
Max Mathews at Bell Labs
Max Mathews and Joan Miller use MUSIC IV to create Daisy Bell
Throughout the 1950s and early '60s, Bell Labs was one of the centers for computer research in graphics and music. Bell Labs had developed a speech synthesis system for their IBM 704 mainframe computer. John Kelly and Carol Lochbaum programmed the vocals, while Max Mathews programmed the accompaniment. One of the attendees at the first demonstration was author Arthur C. Clarke, who recommended it to director Stanley Kubrick for his film version of the book 2001: A Space Odyssey.
Minuteman Guidance computer
Minuteman I missile guidance computer developed
Minuteman missiles use transistorized computers to continuously calculate their position in flight. The computer had to be rugged and fast, with advanced circuit design and reliable packaging able to withstand the forces of a missile launch. The military’s high standards for its transistors pushed manufacturers to improve quality control. When the Minuteman I was decommissioned, some universities received these computers for use by students.
Naval Tactical Data System (NTDS)
Naval Tactical Data System introduced
The US Navy Tactical Data System uses computers to integrate and display shipboard radar, sonar and communications data. This real-time information system began operating in the early 1960s. In October 1961, the Navy tested the NTDS on the USS Oriskany carrier and the USS King and USS Mahan frigates. After being successfully used for decades, NTDS was phased out in favor of the newer AEGIS system in the 1980s.
User on the Dartmouth Time-sharing system
Timesharing – the first online communities
Networking & The Web
By the early 1960s many people can share a single computer, using terminals (often repurposed teleprinters) to log in over phone lines. These timesharing computers are like central hubs with spokes radiating to individual users. Although the computers generally can't connect to each other, these are the first common multi-user systems, with dozens of people online at the same time. As a result, timesharing pioneers many features of later networks, from file sharing to e-mail and chat. Typical 1960s users are a mix of business people, bank employees, students and researchers, and military personnel.
Some of the first general time-sharing systems are CTSS at MIT, and PLATO II at the University of Illinois.
UNIMATE robot in an industrial setting
UNIMATE
UNIMATE, the first mass-produced industrial robot, begins work at General Motors. Obeying step-by-step commands stored on a magnetic drum, the 4,000-pound robot arm sequenced and stacked hot pieces of die-cast metal. UNIMATE was the brainchild of Joe Engelberger and George Devol, and originally automated the manufacture of TV picture tubes.

Jacksonville’s Norman Studios
Movie Posters from the Permanent Collection
Monday, April 11, 2022 to Wednesday, January 31, 2024
Before Hollywood dominated the film industry, Florida was the hot spot for movie executives. With our warm weather, sunny skies, convenient location, cheap labor, and diverse scenery, Florida quickly became a frontrunner in the early film business in the first part of the 20th century. Jacksonville in particular seemed a logical choice as a capital. The city was the principal financial, manufacturing, distribution, and transportation gateway in the Southeast. It was, in fact, the largest metropolis in the state. Its proximity to the St. Johns River, Atlantic Ocean, and Eastern railroad allowed easy access for crews and materials. At the same time, numerous environments including beaches, swamps, river views, downtown districts, and historic St. Augustine were also convenient.
However, the heyday was short-lived. By 1920, Hollywood had already gained preeminence as the nation’s film capital. This shift westward allowed First Coast native and silent filmmaker, Richard Norman, the opportunity to purchase the bankrupt Eagle Studios complex in Arlington in 1920. Norman produced at least 8 feature films in 8 years and gained national attention by producing films with Black casts for Black audiences.
In the earliest years of filmmaking, Black actors and actresses played extras or bit parts in films aimed toward white markets. Heroic or positive roles were unheard of until white filmmakers realized that there was a market for race-based pictures. After his purchase of the former Eagle Studios complex, Richard Norman, a white man, had the finest studio complex of any African American-based film producer.
Norman succeeded at producing low budget yet polished and entertaining black cast films. His productions featured black actors as cowboys, pilots, and businessmen in romance, mystery, and action films. He recruited some of the most prominent stage actors to make the switch to the screen. Although his films were popular with audiences across the country, especially the emerging black middle class, he was forced to close his business at the onset of the Great Depression.
All five buildings of the Eagle/Norman property are still standing today on Arlington Road near Cesery Boulevard and a local nonprofit, the Norman Studios Silent Film Museum, Inc., was formed in 2007 to celebrate the role of filmmaker Richard Norman in the early days of the movie industry. The site is listed in the National Register of Historic Places.

Numerical Technologies and Nikon Precision Enter Subwavelength Development Agreement
Companies to collaborate on 248 nm and 193 nm imaging systems optimized for generating sub-0.18 semiconductor device features
San Jose, California – July 5, 2000 – Numerical Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: NMTC) and Nikon Precision, Inc. (NPI) have entered into a joint development agreement designed to extend the life of available optical imaging systems. The companies will cooperate to enable the rapidly growing adoption of the subwavelength lithography technology used to reduce the size of the features on advanced semiconductors.
Under the terms of the agreement, the companies will perform joint development of lithography solutions that maximize yield and throughput for NPI customers using phase-shifting technology. NPI will utilize Numerical’s patented phase shifting technology and related services to characterize and confirm the performance of 248 nm and 193 nm optical imaging systems for processes that incorporate phase shifting and optical proximity correction (OPC).
“Our customers have put phase shifting and OPC onto their roadmaps for the 0.15 and 0.13 micron technology generations,” said Eric Johnson, NPI vice president of technology. “By working with Numerical Technologies, we can ensure that we are well prepared to provide solutions for sub-0.18 micron technologies. We believe that it is a cost-effective way for our customers to extend the life of an existing tool and to allow subwavelength product development.”
“The industry will extend optical lithography as long as it remains cost-effective to do so,” stated Dan Hutcheson of VLSI Research. “By working with Numerical to accommodate optical extensions, NPI is well positioned to meet the future demands of its customers.”
Y. C. Buno Pati, president and CEO of Numerical stated, “As a leader in lithography imaging, NPI offers systems that will play a key part of the design-to-silicon solution that is needed to reliably manufacture subwavelength ICs.”
In April 1999, Numerical Technologies received US patent #5,858,580 for its dual exposure darkfield phase shifting technique. Numerical’s phase shifting technology requires that a single layer of a wafer be exposed using two different reticles that combine to form the wafer image. By enabling the imaging system to quickly swap reticles during the exposure process, the wafers will move through the exposure process at a faster rate, with more controllable results.
Companies that have recently released information about their use of Numerical’s phase-shifting technology to produce ICs with smaller feature sizes include Motorola (NYSE: MOT), Lucent’s Bell Laboratories (NYSE: LU), and Texas Instruments (NYSE: TXN).
Nikon Precision Inc. is the North American subsidiary of Nikon Corp., the world leader in lithography equipment for the microelectronics manufacturing industry with more than 6,200 units installed worldwide. Nikon offers the most extensive selection of production-class steppers and scanners in the industry, including g-line, i-line, and DUV products. These products serve the wafer, photomask, flat-panel display, and thin-film magnetic head industries. Nikon Precision provides service, applications, training, technical support, sales, and marketing for Nikon in North America.

Moovly Media Inc. (OTCPK: MVVYF) (TSX-V: MVY) BREAKING NEWS: MOOVLY INCREASES STREAMING BANDWIDTH TO SUPPORT OVER 3 MILLION USERS – Moovly Media Inc. (“Moovly” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce an increase in bandwidth and enhanced support to its browser-based platform that now serves more than three million users, including more than 300 of the Fortune 500 companies, as well as many government agencies. Moovly has seen a dramatic increase in traffic of video streaming recordings from its enterprise users combined with a significant increase in bandwidth use from short-form video and social media platforms such as Vimeo, Facebook, Tik-Tok, Instagram, Twitter, and Snapchat.

Organizations often enrich these recorded sessions with subtitles, transcripts, translations, animated visuals and footage – all of which can be done within the Moovly platform.
Brendon Grunewald, CEO of Moovly, commented, “COVID-19 has forced organizations to replace their live lessons, seminars and events by online versions, resulting in hours of recorded videos offered via online video platforms. Increasingly, audiences expect such video content to be offered in enhanced, attractive and compelling ways. We have therefore increased Moovly’s capability to process large video files through the user’s browser, by implementing streaming technologies. Moovly’s users can now edit and enhance hours-long video content without requiring specialist and expensive hardware”.

Other recent developments in the tech industry include:
Zoom Video Communication, Inc (NASDAQ: ZM) recently announced that it has sold one million Zoom Phone seats shortly before it reached the two-year anniversary of the product’s general availability. This impressive growth illustrates the value Zoom Phone brings to customers with its strong service performance, reliability, security, enterprise-grade features, seamless integrations, and simplified pricing model.

GameStop Corp. (NYSE: GME) recently reported worldwide sales results for the nine-week holiday period ended January 2, 2021 reflecting a 4.8% increase in comparable store sales and a 309% increase in E-Commerce sales. Total sales declined 3.1% driven by an 11% decrease in the company’s store base due to its planned de-densification strategy, temporary store closures around the world due to government mandates and lower store traffic, particularly later in December, due to the significant impacts of COVID-19. The Company believes the industry-wide traffic decline during the Holiday period adversely impacted comparable sales for the nine-week period in the high single-digit to low double-digit percentage point range. In addition, significant worldwide supply chain constraints impacted the ability to distribute products to customers across all sales channels. However, the Company experienced unprecedented demand for recently launched gaming consoles, and while consumer demand far outpaced constrained supply in the nine-week period, the Company believes these products will drive sales well into 2021 as console availability from our suppliers improves later in the year.
Nutanix (NASDAQ: NTNX), a leader in private cloud, hybrid and multicloud computing, recently announced that Nutanix is helping educational institutions globally respond to the COVID-19 pandemic. Klein Independent School District (KISD), Millard Public Schools, and Loudoun County Public Schools, three school systems in the U.S. with more than 163,000 students combined, are examples of the many educational institutions that have selected Nutanix to provide their students, faculty and staff the tools they need to support distance learning.
Due to tightening budgets, many educational institutions have not had the resources to modernize their IT operations, leaving them to scramble to find the right solution when the pandemic hit. The recently released annual Enterprise Cloud Index shows that nearly half (47%) of education respondents cited providing “adequate communications channels among employees, customers, and clients” as a top challenge, much higher than the global average. However, the education sector is making transformation a focus, with more respondents than average identifying digital transformation (54%) as a priority as a result of COVID.

Key West to Welcome International Flag Football Teams to 29th Kelly McGillis Classic
KEY WEST, Fla. — International teams of women and girls are to unite in Key West for adrenaline-charged sports matches and associated activities Tuesday through Monday, Jan. 21-27, during the 29th annual Kelly McGillis Classic International Women’s & Girls’ Flag Football Championship.
Named for and endorsed by the Golden Globe–winning actress, director and former Key West resident who starred in “Top Gun” and “Witness,” the championship includes pre- and post-tournament team-building activities and three days of competition.
Diane Beruldsen, president and founder of the International Women’s Flag Football Association that presents the tournament, said more than two dozen teams from across the United States, Mexico, Central America, Sweden, India and Egypt are expected to participate.
The event also includes the third International Women’s Flag Football Conference Monday, Jan. 27, with guest speakers and an international board. Designed for female players and organizers, the conference is to feature discussions about the sport by panelists from six countries.
The tournament attracts players ranging from 9 years old to seniors who compete in multiple divisions, develop their skills during flag football clinics and enjoy camaraderie during dances, contests, parties and other social events.
Special guests include Dr. Jen Welter, who made history in 2015 when she was hired as a linebacker coach for the National Football League’s Arizona Cardinals, becoming the first female to hold a coaching position in the NFL.
Following three days of clinics and islandwide festivities for players, the tournament’s opening ceremony is slated for 4-6 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 23, at the Half Shell Raw Bar, 231 Margaret St.
Kelly’s Players Parade, scheduled just after the ceremony, is to feature tournament teams proceeding along Key West’s renowned Duval Street and seaport area. Players typically wear team uniforms or costumes and display their country or state flags or team banners in the lively procession, which also includes floats and marching bands.
The official mandatory registration party follows at 8 p.m.
Games are to begin at 10 a.m. Friday and 8 a.m. Saturday and Sunday at Wicker Field Sports Complex on Kennedy Drive. The competition is to culminate Sunday in playoffs and the World Challenge Game.
Awards are to be presented Sunday night at the Turtle Kraals Restaurant & Bar, 231 Margaret St.
All games and activities, including clinics on how to play and officiate flag football, are open to the public free of charge.

Abstract:- The United Nations has estimated that there will be roughly 10 billion people on earth by the year 2050. Feeding these people has been a major global challenge. The fear that global demand for food will outstrip supply has led to a significant debate. Although farmers have used different means in the past to increase the size of their production, the means that they have used to achieve the growth have reached their limits. Future agriculture will require using new approaches aimed at increasing both productivity
and environmental protection. It has been realized that sustainable agriculture is the most realistic way to feed the rapid increasing global population. Sustainable agriculture is one that produces abundant food while protecting the environment and maintaining soil fertility. This paper provides an introduction to sustainable agriculture.
Key Words: Sustainable agriculture, sustainable farming, environment, technology
Every person on earth needs food every day. Modern technology and services have improved the production of food. Agriculture is the largest industry on the planet and it
Includes crop, horticulture, animal husbandry, forestry, and fisheries. It provides jobs for a significant part of the world population.
The world is undergoing changes that will shape the livelihood of millions of people in the coming years. The worlds population is expected to grow to about 10 billion by 2050. Meetings the rapidly increasing global food demand with existing farming agricultural practices is likely going to lead to more intense competition for natural resources and land degradation.
Traditional agriculture practices have caused massive deforestation, water scarcities, and soil depletion. It cannot deliver sustainable food and agricultural production. Expanding food production and economic growth using traditional practices have often come at a heavy cost to the natural environment. Therefore, business-as-usual is not an
option [1].
Sustainability has recently become popular in education, research, and government.
There are three popular definitions of sustainability: sustainability as food sufficiency; sustainability as stewardship; and sustainability as community [2]. Also, the following items are regarded as the three pillar of sustainability [3]:
Profit over the long term. It uses state-of-the-art, science-based practices that maximize productivity and profit while minimizing environmental damage. Profits exceed the profitability of the conventional system.
Stewardship of our nations land, air and water. Environmental sustainability in agriculture means good stewardship of the natural systems and resources that farms rely on.
Quality of life for farmers, ranchers, and their communities. Farmer workers should be given the opportunity to form, join a labor union without fear of reprisal, intimidation, or harassment.
The International Institute for Sustainable Development contributes to sustainable development through policy recommendations on economic policy, climate change, natural resources management, and international trade.
THREATS TO AGRICULTURE
Farmers face major risks, including extreme weather, long-term climate change, and price volatility in input and product markets, climate change, resource scarcity, and changing consumption patterns. A number of global trends are influencing food security and the overall sustainability of agricultural systems. These include:
Rapid, global urbanization is accelerating the dietary transition
Population growth will boost demand for food
Ageing accelerating among rural populations
The worlds farmland is becoming increasingly unsuitable for production
Climate change will affect every aspect of food production
Consumers waste 30-40 percent of all food
Persistent poverty, inequality, and food insecurity
Hunger is a major problem, particularly in developing countries
Diverse trends in economic growth, family incomes, agricultural investment, and economic inequality
Greatly increased competition for natural resources
Plateauing of agricultural productivity for many crops and animals
Increased conflicts, crises, and natural disasters
Structural changes in economic systems and employment implications
Advanced food production systems and resulting impacts on farmers livelihoods
Changes in international financing for sustainable development
Increasing human demands for food, water, energy, and land has led to a new phenomenon of land-grabbing.
These issues pose a challenge and are the product of poor foresight and planning. They clearly indicate that agriculture needs innovation, the challenges of tomorrow cannot be resolved with yesterdays methods. We need ways to feed the world population in a sustainable way and in keeping with human dignity. The preservation and sustainable utilization of resources is of vital importance for the interest of all mankind and our environment. Agriculture is at the heart of the sustainability challenge. Interest in sustainable agriculture possibly had its roots in the notion of sustainable development, which is based on intergenerational obligation and equity.
WHAT IS SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE?
Agriculture is one of the biggest threats to a healthy environment. Sustainable agriculture refers to farming that is good for the environment, animals, and people. It is agriculture without depleting the earths resources or polluting its environment. It may also be regarded as farming in sustainable ways without compromising the ability for current or future generations to meet their needs. It involves farming predicated on the spiritual and practical notions and ethical dimensions of responsible stewardship and sustainable production of wholesome food. It provides a potential solution to enable agricultural systems to feed a growing population without negative effect on the environment and human population. It includes promoting urban farming, which favors equitable access to resources, managed in the most efficient way. A typical example of unsustainable agriculture is the application of fertilizer or manure, which can improve the productivity of a farm but can pollute the environment. An example of growing food in a relatively sustainable way is the practice of growing food in the backyard of houses, schools, etc. [4].
The idea of sustainable agriculture came out of fear and anxiety that the planets carrying capacity, in terms of the ability to feed humanity, has been reached or even exceeded and the food demand of the rapidly increasing global population cannot be met.
It has become an important topic in international policy due to its potential to reduce environmental risks. The goal of sustainable agriculture is to reduce environmental degradation due to farming. Implementation of sustainable practices in agriculture comes through the adoption environmentally-focused technology.
As illustrated in Figure 1, sustainable agriculture has environmental, social, and economic dimensions onsidered together [5]. Sustainability demands that practices be economically viable, environmentally safe, and socially acceptable. Environmental sustainability promotes agricultural practices that are less dependent on fossil fuels and minimizes their impact on climate change. Social sustainability embraces the capacity of a system to continue to meet societys expectations for social justice and security, including intergenerational equity. Economic sustainability is the capacity for a system to continuously provide goods and services whose values exceed the cost of production [6].
The major characteristics of sustainable agriculture include the following [7]:
Conservation and preservation: What is taken out of the environment is put back in, so that land and resources such as water, soil and air can be replenished and are available to future generations.
Biodiversity: Farms raise different types of plants and animals, which are rotated around the fields to enrich the soil and help prevent disease and pest outbreaks. Figure 2 shows cattle in a biodiverse environment [8].
Animal welfare: Animals are treated humanely and with respect, and are well cared for. They are permitted to carry out their natural behaviors, such as grazing, rooting or pecking.
Economically viable: Farmers are paid a fair wage and are not dependent on subsidies from the government. Sustainable farmers help strengthen rural communities.
Social justice: Workers are treated fairly and paid competitive wages and benefits. They work in a safe environment and are offered proper living conditions and food.
FACTORS AFFECTING SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE
The most important factors for a farming site are climate, soil, nutrients and water resources. These factors must be taken into account when addressing sustainable agriculture that can ensure food security for all.
Climate Change: Changing climatic conditions impact yields in a number of different ways depending on crop and location. For example, rising temperatures can cause faster crop development. However, extreme temperatures can damage plant cells and lead to catastrophic losses. Future crop yield changes under climate change [9]. Climate often compells farmers to adapt their agricultural practices. Figure 3 shows climate change in America [10].
Land Areas: Data on land cover is used to estimate the amount of suitable land available for future farming. Not all regions are suitable for agriculture. Only a small portion of the earths surface is arable land. Irrigation, plays an important role in enhancing productivity and minimizing the impacts of extreme climate conditions on crop production. Some argue that land reform is an essential step towards reducing social inequalities within the food system. While smallholder farmers in emerging economies may have an opportunity to increase their farm size, farms will remain small in many parts of the developing world [11]. Lands protected by conservation easements provide additional public benefits, including environmental quality and protection of open space.
Technology: Technological advances has introduced radical changes to the agricultural working environment in recent years. For example. Smart farming, based on the incorporation of information and communication technologies (ICT) into agricultural production systems, allows a large volume of data to be generated [12]. New technologies are changing the way stakeholders, and government think about the agriculture industry, with the hope for solving the hunger and food scarcity problem. Although technology is certainly part of the solution, it alone cannot solve the global crisis. Some technologies are still expensive to most farmers, especially for the smaller ones and those in developing nations.
CAMPAIGN FOR SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE
Sustainable agriculture requires new approaches to using natural resources and systems. The following areas of consensus have emerged as the key paths of action [13]
Organized small and medium farmers, fully including women farmers, should be a primary focus of investment recognizing that private enterprise will play a significant role in many solutions
Define the goal in terms of human nutrition rather than simply more production
Pursue high yields within a healthy ecology they are not mutually exclusive and policy and research must reflect that
Impel innovation and the availability of diverse technologies suitable in different socioeconomic and ecological contexts
Significantly reduce waste along the entire food chain
Avoid diverting food crops and productive land for biofuels, but explore decentralized biofuel systems to promote energy and livelihood security that also diversify and restore rural landscapes
Insist on intelligent and transparent measurement of results – we cannot manage what we cannot measure
Develop and adapt public and private institutions that can effectively respond to these new goals
Motivate and reward investments and business systems that result in measurable impacts to the public good.
Strengthen international and national governance for sustainable resource use, with particular emphasis on the capacity of developing countries to participate
Establish accountability mechanisms for damage to the environment and/or human rights violations and to provide remedies for those rights that are violated.
Produce crops with high yield and nutritional quality to meet existing and future needs, while keeping resource inputs as low as possible.
Ensure that any adverse effects on soil fertility, water and air quality, and biodiversity from agricultural activities are minimized, and positive contributions are made where possible.
Optimize the use of renewable resources while minimizing the use of non-renewable resources.
Sustainable intensification has become a priority for the United Nations. Sustainable agriculture involves using farming techniques that are economically viable, protect
the water resources from pollution, treat livestock animals humanely, and maintain soil fertility for future generation.
The benefits of sustainable agriculture can be divided into human health benefits and environmental benefits [14]. In terms of human health, crops grown through sustainable agriculture are better for people due to the lack of chemical pesticides and fertilizers. The crops produced through sustainable agriculture can also be more nutritious because the overall crops are healthier and more natural. Sustainable practices lend themselves to smaller, family-scale farms. These farms often find their best niches in local markets, within local food systems, often selling directly to consumers. Sustainable agriculture could be a way to achieve food sovereignty, it could also be a solution to hunger and food security.
Sustainable agriculture has also had positive impacts of the environment. The reduced reliance on fossil fuels results in the release of less chemicals and pollution into the environment. Sustainable agriculture also benefits the environment by maintaining soil quality, reducing soil degradation and erosion, and saving water. It attempts to minimize the harmful effects on the environment from pollution, wind and water erosion, and other types of environmental damage arising from agricultural production. Figure 4 depicts some of the benefits of sustainable agriculture [15].
The challenges facing agriculture over the coming decades are many and complex.
While significant progress has been made towards achieving the sustainable development goals, critical environmental, social, economic and institutional challenges are still to be overcome. Two crucial connected challenges are [16]: (1) the persistentl high levels of hunger and malnutrition particularly in the rural areas of many developing countries only slowly declining rates of poverty; and (2) an unsustainable and increasing burden of human activities on the earths carrying capacity. Some researchers affirm that food insecurity, hunger and poverty are not technical issues caused by insufficient food production, but rather political issues related to uneven distribution.
Agriculture is essential to international development, Sustainable agriculture is a kind of agriculture that focuses on producing long-term crops and livestock while having minimal effects on the environment. It an agricultural production that is economically viable and does not degrade the environment over the long run. Proper protection, management, and governance of the environment are therefore crucial to sustainable
agriculture. More information about sustainable agriculture can be found in the books in [17-23] and the following related journals: The Journey to Sustainability Begins With Education and Sustainability, American Journal of Alternative Agriculture

Bipartisan set of governors urge Senators to restore funding for wind energy research
By Paul Dvorak | September 18, 2015
From AWEA: Democratic Gov. Jay Inslee of Washington and Republican Gov. Terry Branstad of Iowa have sent a letter on behalf of the Governors’ Wind Energy Coalition calling on the U.S. Senate Appropriations Committee to reverse its decision to hamper long-term investment in research advancing American wind power.
The governors’ letter was sent to Senate Appropriations Committee Chairman Thad Cochran and Vice Chairwoman Barbara Mikulski and refers to funding in the 2016 Energy and Water Development Appropriations bill set for the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) budget and used for research and technology innovation that has helped lower wind power’s costs by 66 percent in the last six years.
“The nation’s long-term investment in research conducted by DOE’s energy programs, National Laboratories, our state universities, and private companies around the nation has helped fuel the extraordinary growth of the nation’s wind energy industry,” the letter states. “As governors, we see the benefits this innovative research has brought to our states, including energy diversification and continual wealth generation in rural America.”
Cutting funding for wind energy research could leave untapped opportunities for new wind farm development and the economic benefits that come with it in all 50 states according to the letter, especially the Southeast, and the bill’s elimination of funding for grid modernization restrains the U.S. from capitalizing on the full range of economic and environmental benefits gained by diversifying the U.S. electricity mix with homegrown wind energy.
“These states’ Chief Executive Officers are telling Congress that their decision to hinder wind power’s growth hurts their state economies,” said Tom Kiernan, CEO of the American Wind Energy Association (AWEA). “We support the Governors’ Wind Energy Coalition in urging Congress to restore funding for research that has helped improve wind power’s technology and bring more of wind’s low-cost benefits to American families and businesses.”
“We’re gaining momentum, now is not the time for Congress to turn its back on American supported wind energy,” added Kiernan.
The U.S. has some of the most productive wind turbines in the world because of DOE’s research and development of turbine technology and the significant drop in costs of wind power has allowed for billions of dollars in savings to be passed onto American homeowners and businesses.
With more wind energy, electricity prices would be 20 percent less sensitive to fluctuations in the price of fossil fuels by 2050 according the DOE’s Wind Vision report and consumers would see $280 billion in economy-wide savings from reduced natural gas prices alone.
American wind power supports 73,000 jobs today, including 20,000 manufacturing jobs. By supplying 20 percent of U.S. electricity by 2030 wind could create more than 380,000 jobs according to Wind Vision and by supplying 35 percent 2050 create 600,000 jobs.
Polls consistently show an overwhelming majority of American voters support growing the nation’s domestic renewable energy resources. A March 2015 annual Gallup environment poll found 84 percent of American voters want the U.S. to put more emphasis or the same emphasis on producing domestic energy from wind. Two-thirds of Republicans and independents wanted more emphasis. A recent survey by Yale University found 77 percent of Americans support funding research into renewable energy sources, and that there is no red/blue divide on continuing American innovation in this area.

Report by American Society of Civil Engineers Shows Poor School Infrastructure Nationwide
July 13, 2017 July 18, 2017 School News 2073 Views American Society of Civil Engineers, ASCE, infrastructure, Maintenance, Operations, public schools, report card
RESTON, Va. — From presidencies to colleges, American institutions seem to work in four-year cycles. Ditto the Reston-headquartered American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), which issues a quadrennial “report card” assessing the state of the nation’s infrastructure. Like the letter grades given to students, the society uses an A to F system to assess the physical condition and needed investments for infrastructure improvements. Sharing a D+ alongside public parks and hazardous waste management are nearly 100,000 American K-12 public school buildings, according to the report card released in March.
America’s public school infrastructure is flirting with failure, according to a recent report by the American Society of Civil Engineers.

The ASCE used data from a variety of sources, including the U.S. Department of Education and National Center on Education Statistics, and found that 24 percent of public school buildings were rated as being in fair or poor condition.
“In many cases, planning is lacking, as four in 10 public schools currently do not have a long-term educational facilities plan in place to address operations and maintenance,” according to ASCE’s report. “The main reason for repair, renovation or modernization work on school facilities relates to improving energy efficiency as well as technology infrastructure.”
Underinvestment in school facilities due to fiscal woes has resulted in a $38 billion estimated annual budget gap for repairs and modernizations. Altogether, more than half of public schools need such investments to be considered in “good” condition, according to the report. States are not graded individually within the 2017 Infrastructure Report Card.
“Public schools serve as critical learning environments for the next generation, yet the facilities received a poor ‘D+’ grade in the Report Card. This is concerning because recent studies indicate that public schools’ conditions may affect student performance,” said Greg DiLoreto, past president of ASCE and chair of the Committee on America’s Infrastructure. “In contrast, quality facilities can help improve student achievement, reduce truancy and raise staff morale and retention. If we want the next generation to receive a quality education, school facilities that provide healthy, safe and modern learning environments are a part of it.”
Founded in 1852, ASCE is the nation’s oldest engineering society, representing more than 150,000 members of the civil engineering profession. The ASCE Committee on America’s Infrastructure, which authored the Infrastructure Report Card, is comprised of 28 civil engineers from around the country, representing decades of collective experience.
More than 10 years ago, when School Construction News last reported on the Infrastructure Report Card, ASCE similarly graded the infrastructure of public schools a mere D.

About Civitavecchia, Italy
Málaga is a large city in the southern Spanish region of Andalucia and capital of the Malaga Province. The largest city on the Costa del Sol, Malaga has a typical Mediterranean climate and is also known as the birthplace of famous Spanish artist Pablo Picasso. The city offers beaches, hiking, architectural sites, art museums, excellent shopping and cuisine. While more laid back than Madrid or Barcelona, Malaga is still the center and transport hub for the hugely popular Costa del Sol region, which is flooded with tourists in the summer, and the city has certainly cashed in on the sun and sand, with lots of new construction as well as hotels and facilities geared to tourists. However, Malaga also offers some genuinely interesting historical and cultural attractions in its old city and its setting on the coast is still beautiful.
Alicante is a port city on Spain’s southeastern Costa Blanca, and the capital of the Alicante province. The area around Alicante has been inhabited for over 7000 years. The first tribes of hunter gatherers moved down gradually from Central Europe between 5000 and 3000 BC. Some of the earliest settlements were made on the slopes of Mount Benacantil. By 1000 BC Greek and Phoenician traders had begun to visit the eastern coast of Spain, establishing small trading ports and introducing the native Iberian tribes to the alphabet, iron and the pottery wheel. By the 3rd century BC, the rival armies of Carthage and Rome began to invade and fight for control of the Iberian Peninsula. The Carthaginian general Hamilcar Barcaestablished the fortified settlement of Akra Leuka (meaning "White Mountain" or "White Point"), where Alicante stands today. The city is popular for its stunning beach views, nightlife, hotel resorts and festivals.
Ponta Delgada is the largest municipality and administrative capital of the Autonomous Region of the Azores in Portugal. It is located on São Miguel Island, the largest and most populous in the archipelago. Cruise ships on repositioning voyages between North America and Europe often call there. Cruise-ship visitors to Ponta Delgada will often drive out into the countryside for visits to small villages and natural volcanic wonders. There's usually time afterward for a relaxed amble through the lovely port city, noted for its squares paved with black and white tiles, fabulous churches, and public buildings with their white-painted facades and brown-black volcanic stone trim. Given its dimension and the diversity of facilities and services it offers, Ponta Delgada is also the place for experiencing, a true gateway to the active discovery of the Azores Archipelago, with many things to do.
Livorno is an Italian port city on the Ligurian Sea, on the western coast of Tuscany, Italy. Traditionally been known in English as Leghorn, it's known for its seafood, Renaissance-era fortifications and modern harbor with a cruise ship port.
New York City is the most populous city in the United States and the center of the New York metropolitan area. The city has a significant impact on global commerce, finance, media, culture, art, fashion, research, education, and entertainment. As host of the United Nations Headquarters, it is also an important center for international affairs. The city is often referred to as ''New York City'' or the ''City of New York'', to distinguish it from the state of New York, of which it is a part. Located on a large natural harbor on the Atlantic coast of the Northeastern United States, New York City consists of five boroughs: The Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, and Staten Island.
Civitavecchia is a town and comune of the Metropolitan City of Rome in the central Italian region of Lazio. A sea port on the Tyrrhenian Sea, the name ''Civitavecchia'' means "ancient town". The modern city was built over a pre-existing Etruscan settlement. The massive Forte Michelangelo was first commissioned from Donato Bramante by Pope Julius II, to defend the port of Rome. The upper part of the "maschio" tower, however, was designed by Michelangelo, whose name is generally applied to the fortress. North of the city at Ficoncella are the Terme Taurine baths frequented by Romans and still popular with the Civitavecchiesi. The modern name stems from the common fig plants among the various pools. And also next to the town is the location of the cruise ship docks. All major cruise lines start and end their cruises at this location, and others stop for shore excursion days that allow guests to see Rome and Vatican sights, which are ninety minutes away.
Barcelona – Spain's enchanting capital, second largest and most populous city. It is a huge city that vibrates with life, and there’s certainly not another city in the country to touch it for its sheer style, looks or energy. It is one of the world's leading tourist, economic, trade fair and cultural centers, and its influence in commerce, education, entertainment, media, fashion, science, and the arts all contribute to its status as one of the world's major global cities. Barcelona is home to masterpieces of many great architects – the most famous of which is Antoni Gaudí.

The best places to see cherry blossoms around the US this spring
Nothing quite captures the joyous arrival of spring than cherry blossom season.
Ancient hanami (flower-watching) celebrations in Japan may be the first image that springs to mind when you think of this fleeting floral spectacle. However, there are plenty of destinations along the East and West coasts where you can view firsthand those puffs of flawless pink and white blossoms.
From Washington, D.C.’s Tidal Basin to the serene Japanese Garden of Portland’s Washington Park, sakura displays are accompanied by elaborate Japanese cultural events and traditions.
It’s a poignantly short window of opportunity — and Mother Nature is notoriously unpredictable — but you can expect peak blooms to occur in late March and early April, with slight variations from north to south.
The National Park Service forecasts peak bloom in Washington, D.C., between March 22 and 25, though (depending on the weather) you can expect to see blossoms both before and after those dates.
Here are eight of the best places to see cherry blossoms in the U.S. this spring.

The capital’s annual three-week National Cherry Blossom Festival takes place from March 20 to April 16. More than 3,000 trees span fields and gardens within city limits, but the headline act unfolds at the Tidal Basin, where blossoms photogenically frame some of the nation’s most cherished landmarks. Over 1.5 million people converge on the city each year to witness the spectacle, so be prepared to jockey for a good viewing spot.
The festival is a pink petal extravaganza featuring elaborate parade floats, marching bands, a kite festival, celebrity entertainers and a “Pink Tie” ball. Along the banks of the Anacostia River, “Petalpalooza” on April 8 showcases local musicians and artists with live performances, art walks and installations, as well as family-centric activities and a fireworks show at 8:30 p.m.
Celebrations culminate on April 15 and 16 with the Japanese Street Festival — the largest of its kind in the U.S. Along Pennsylvania Avenue (between Third and Seventh streets), you’ll find martial arts demos, J-pop, traditional food and beverage vendors and a Ginza Marketplace. A one-day pass is $10, and a two-day pass is $15.
If you want to see gorgeous blooms — and beat the crowds — head to the U.S. National Arboretum, about 30 minutes from downtown.
You can follow Washington‘s bloom forecast here.
Where to stay: The Salamander Washington DC (formerly the Mandarin Oriental), between the National Mall and The Wharf, is a short walk from the Tidal Basin. The hotel’s Cherry Blossom Views package comes with views of the basin and a cherry blossom-themed afternoon tea service for two in your room or suite. Cash rates for the Cherry Blossom Views package in a standard king room start at $720 per night.

The Emerald City ushers in the spring season with a three-day celebration of Japanese culture along with cherry blossom viewing at a handful of locations across the city. Across the Pacific Northwest, cherry blossom season generally peaks the third week in March.
The largest and oldest festival of its kind in the Pacific Northwest, the Seattle Cherry Blossom & Japanese Cultural Festival dates to 1976 when then-Prime Minister Takeo Miki of Japan donated 1,000 cherry trees in honor of the U.S.’s bicentennial. Held April 14-16, cultural events include traditional music performances, silk threading, origami demonstrations, kibori wood carving, Japanese cuisine and games.
The best place to view the blossoms is at the Liberal Arts Quadrangle at the University of Washington, where 130 Yoshino cherry trees line the quad’s stately lawns and Gothic buildings. At Washington Park Arboretum, you’ll also find cherry trees along Azalea Way and alongside bridges and walkways in the Japanese Garden.
Where to stay: The Hyatt Regency Seattle is one of TPG’s favorite Seattle hotels for its low points rate and proximity to can’t-miss downtown attractions, such as Pike Place Market and the Seattle Art Museum.

In the hills of Portland’s Washington Park, the city’s beloved Japanese Garden is hailed as the nation’s most beautiful. It hosts a number of sell-out cultural workshops, including ikebana (flower arranging) and wine tastings.

ALLIED PILOTS ASSOCIATION, AMERICAN AIRLINES LAUNCH FIRST-EVER CHARTING SOLUTION FOR IPAD ELECTRONIC FLIGHT BAGS
First Officer Hank Putek
Captain Sam Mayer
Fort Worth, Texas (June 16, 2011)—The Allied Pilots Association (APA), certified collective bargaining agent for the 11,000 pilots of American Airlines (NYSE: AMR), announced today that the carrier has begun final testing of Apple iPad tablet computers equipped with electronic-charting functionality.
“Last year American Airlines became the first carrier authorized by the Federal Aviation Administration to use iPads as electronic flight bags for pilots,” said First Officer Hank Putek, a member of the APA Safety Committee who has led the union’s efforts to develop and deploy EFBs. “American Airlines has now become the first to deploy iPads with an electronic-charting solution.”
Electronic charting provides pilots with a digital image of their flight route. The final testing phase is a prelude to FAA approval of the devices to serve as Class 1 Electronic Flight Bags (EFBs) during all phases of flight.
“By eliminating bulky flight bags filled with paper, EFBs mean less weight for pilots to carry, reducing the possibility of injury on duty,” Putek said. “In addition, they enable pilots to immediately download updates, rather than waiting for paper versions of required documents to be printed and distributed.”
Along with lower paper printing and distribution expenses, reduced fuel consumption represents another EFB benefit. The devices weigh approximately 1.5 pounds and replace paper flight manuals easily weighing 35 pounds or more that pilots are required to carry while operating a commercial flight.
APA, American Airlines and Jeppesen collaborated on the development of the electronic-charting solution for the iPad. The final testing phase involves Boeing 777 pilots from the airline’s Los Angeles crew base.
“With the recent announcement that Alaska Airlines will soon be issuing iPads to all of that carrier’s pilots to serve as EFBs, it’s clear that American Airlines stands at the forefront of a significant industry trend,” Putek said. “I’m extremely pleased that APA was able to play a role in bringing this effort to fruition.”
Founded in 1963, the Allied Pilots Association—the largest independent pilot union in the U.S.—is headquartered in Fort Worth, Texas. APA represents the 11,000 pilots of American Airlines, including more than 1,000 pilots not yet offered recall from furlough. The furloughs began shortly after the September 11, 2001 attacks. Also, several hundred American Airlines pilots are on full-time military leave of absence serving in the armed forces. The union’s Web site address is www.alliedpilots.org. American Airlines is the nation’s second-largest passenger carrier and fifth-largest cargo carrier.

Step back in time to see what area movie theaters were presenting in November 1932. Film titles are linked to the Internet Movie Database.
When the votes were counted on November 8 in the historic U.S. presidential election between incumbent Herbert Hoover and challenger Franklin Roosevelt, area moviegoers didn't have to sit at home by their radio to find out what was going on.
"The Michigan will run a special midnight show on election night, Tuesday, Nov. 8," read an ad in November 7, 1932 The Ann Arbor Daily News. "At the conclusion of the show, and at times during its running, election returns that are available will be given." To mark the occasion, the Michigan re-ran its Monday Guest Night double bill of the main attraction Movie Crazy (Harold Lloyd) and second feature The Miracle Man.
In Detroit, "three downtown motion picture theaters, the Michigan, RKO Downtown and Fox, will cater to presidential election celebrants tonight by offering special shows," read an article in the November 8, 1932 Detroit News. "Vote returns will be announced on national, state and county tickets at intervals during the entertainment."
Also at the Michigan in Ann Arbor, moviegoers on November 19 got a free turkey, duck or chicken for their "Thanksgiving feast" after enjoying Loretta Young and George Brent in They Call It Sin. Opening on Thanksgiving at the Michigan was A Bill of Divorcement, starring John Barrymore and (in her first film) Katharine Hepburn. Other popular movies were Red Dust (Clark Gable, Jean Harlow), Rain (Joan Crawford, Walter Huston), and Too Busy to Work (Will Rogers, Marian Nixon).
At the Redford, the highlight of the month was Grand Hotel, which had been playing downtown since May. That film opened on November 27 after it was named the "most outstanding picture" in the Academy Awards ceremony for the 1931/32 movie year (The Detroit News, November 19, 1932).
Other top films at the Redford included Pack Up Your Troubles (Laurel and Hardy), Blonde Venus (Marlene Dietrich), Bird of Paradise (Dolores del Rio), Love Me Tonight (Maurice Chevalier), and Devil and the Deep (Gary Cooper). November 19 visitors to the Redford enjoyed a double bill of This Sporting Age (Jack Holt) and Blonde Captive, along with a "Big Vaudeville Show" at 9 p.m.
Prominent openings in Detroit included Rain (Joan Crawford) and I Am a Fugitive from a Chain Gang (Paul Muni) at the United Artists (video courtesy of TCM); A Bill of Divorcement and The Old Dark House at the RKO Downtown; and If I Had a Million at the Michigan.

“Our Gang” Chronicles Lives of African-American Actors in “The Little Rascals.” “All Things Considered” with Robert Siegel
NPR’s Robert Siegel talks to author Julia Lee about her book Our Gang: A Racial History of The Little Rascals. She chronicles the story of the African-American actors in the films. They were hailed as heroes of the black community for a time but were later reviled for their roles.
“The Complex Racial History of The Little Rascals.“ q with Shadrach Kabango, CBC Radio.
For generations of kids and nostalgic adults, The Little Rascals are little more than a group of black and white kids who get up to adorable shenanigans. But Dr. Julia Lee, a longtime fan of the show, decided to take a closer look. The image of interracial friendship, especially in Jim Crow era America, stood out in a largely segregated television landscape. She joins Shad to discuss some of the complexities that turned up, as chronicled in her new book Our Gang: A Racial History of The Little Rascals.
“The Little Rascals Revisited.” With Carrie Kaufman on KNPR State of Nevada.
“Our Gang: A Racial History of The Little Rascals“: A New Book Offers a Different Perspective on the Feisty Crew of Kids. By Ann Hulbert, Atlantic Monthly (December 2015)
The little rascals, originally known as Our Gang, have stirred up irresistible trouble ever since the short comedies debuted on silent film in 1922. Chubby and scrawny, bossy and sweet, black and white: The producer, Hal Roach, saw to it that his posse of children was motley. Bob McGowan, the avuncular director, made sure the crew never ran out of hijinks. How about a firecracker in a birthday cake?
A succession of young actors took it from there. Winning over audiences of all colors and ages, they made the transition to talkies. In the 1950s, the films were repackaged for TV. Re-edited versions and movie remakes followed.
All along, the African American stars were making bigger mischief, too, as Julia Lee reveals in her agile and insightful cultural history. A professor at the University of Nevada at Las Vegas, she relishes the deeply mixed messages embedded in, and extracted from, the films’ vision of racially integrated childhood.
Our Gang, born and bred in the Jim Crow era, played to pickaninny stereotypes, and also parodied the KKK. (Cluck Cluck Klams was the kids’ club.) Down the decades, the series continued to fuel, and flout, fantasies and anxieties as Americans wrestled with integration, multiculturalism, and post-racial hopes. But for kids, fun was always high on the agenda. As Henry Louis Gates Jr. appreciates in his foreword, Lee (a childhood fan herself) never forgets that.
“The Book Our Gang Reveals the Complicated Racial History of The Little Rascals.“ Tony Mostrom, LA Weekly (January 19, 2016)
Our Gang, Julia Lee’s new book on the history of the much-loved Our Gang comedies of the 1920s, ‘30s and ‘40s, has a provocative subtitle: A Racial History of the Little Rascals. Let’s face it, if you’re old enough to have been a fan of the black-and-white shorts — which, like many things from that era, had their last real resurgence in the ‘90s, thanks to LaserDisc reissues — you’ve probably found yourself at one time or other wondering how American audiences during the more or less Klan-friendly 1920s and ‘30s respond to the racially mixed cast of kids making slapstick “mischief” together. Wasn’t white America uniformly piggish toward its Black citizens? Did bigoted adults just grin and bear it for the sake of a few laughs? Surely there must have been some riots in the movie theaters or lynchings in effigy. Actually, that wasn’t the case. As Lee discovers in this deeply researched and colorful history, the answers to these questions turn out to be varied, nuanced, fascinating and, at times, surprisingly gratifying.
Review. Publishers Weekly (November 2015)
In 1922, when Our Gang (later retitled The Little Rascals) debuted, it was the age of Jim Crow, and Ku Klux Klan membership was on the rise, as were race riots. Yet in this hugely popular series of short comic films, black and white children went to school together, played together, and got in trouble together in a “happily multiracial and multiethnic” vision of America. In a wonderfully inviting study, Lee (The American Slave Narrative and the Victorian Novel) focuses on Our Gang’s four African-American stars, Ernest “Sunshine Sammy” Morrison, Allen “Farina” Hoskins, Matthew “Stymie” Beard, and Billie “Buckwheat” Thomas. She reveals how they embodied African-American hopes while enacting racial stereotypes for a white audience’s amusement. Lee credits the series’ creators (including, as writers, future Oscar winners Frank Capra and Leo McCarey) for satirizing the Ku Klux Klan in its heyday (the kids form a club called the Cluck Cluck Klams) and depicting interracial friendship without comment. Lee also explores the lasting popularity of the series, which was cancelled in 1944 but drew new viewers through TV airings beginning in the 1950s and remakes in the 1990s and early 21st century. Its durability is a testament to the power of childhood innocence, resourcefulness, and solidarity. (Dec.)

Baucus Looks to Health Care, Energy, Taxes in 2009, Reviews Finance Highlights As 110th Congress Ends
Health reform, tax reform, American competitiveness lead list of priorities next year
Washington, DC – Senate Finance Committee Chairman Max Baucus (D-Mont.) today outlined priority issues and tasks for the panel in 2009, and reflected on accomplishments under the Finance Committee’s jurisdiction in the second session of the 110th Congress. Baucus has already announced an aggressive effort to move comprehensive health reform legislation next year. He said today that he will focus the committee’s tax efforts onenergy, infrastructure, and general tax reform. A robust renewal and expansion of Trade Adjustment Assistance will still top Baucus’s trade agenda in the new Congress.This year, Baucus led the Committee and the Senate in passing rebate checks for millionsof Americans, significant Medicare reforms, new energy tax incentives, tax relief for businesses, farmers, and families, alternative minimum tax relief, and a host of other newlaws. Baucus also focused much of the Committee’s effort on preparation for enacting comprehensive health reform next year. A full summary is below.
“The American people have faced extraordinary economic challenges this year, and the Finance Committee moved to ease the burden with much-needed rebate checks, tax relief for businesses and families, and a focus on health care that will pay huge dividends for American families and America’s economy,” Baucus said. “I believe the 111th Congress can be a real game-changer for this country if everyone works together to enact real health care reform, energy independence measures and smart tax changes to increase families’ and businesses’ financial stability. And it’s time to take a stand for American workers with better Trade Adjustment Assistance, too.”
Highlights of the 110th Congress, Second Session
Economic Stimulus Act (H.R. 5140 Public Law 110-185): This $145.9 billion dollar package became law February 13 and was designed to immediately bolster the economy through individual tax rebates, business tax incentives, and bonus depreciation. The legislation included Baucus-authored provisions for relief for 20 million Americanseniors and nearly 250,000 disabled veterans left out of initial stimulus plans.
Medicare Improvements for Patients and Providers Act (S. 3101/HR 6331, PublicLaw 110-275): Passed in July by an overwhelming margin, the Medicare Improvements for Patients and Providers Act made needed improvements to the Medicare program forthe protection of our seniors. The bill blocked a scheduled cut in physician payments for Medicare services and instead increased payments by 1.1 percent in 2009. The law also included provisions to benefit every Medicare beneficiary, with special provisions forlow-income seniors and providers in rural areas. Additional provisions in the law included:
a one-year extension of supplemental grants for Temporary Assistance to Needy Families
the Rural Relief for Veterans in Crisis Act, introduced by Baucus and Senator Jon Tester (D-Mont.) in June. This measure provides mental health services to veterans returning from Iraq and Afghanistan.
Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (H.R. 1424, Public Law 110-343): Passed in October, the law authorized a financial rescue plan that allows the U.S.Treasury to purchase bad assets threatening the solvency of American financialinstitutions. At Baucus’s insistence, the final financial rescue plan included a number of improvements and protections for taxpayers, including a special Inspector General tofight waste, fraud and abuse in the Treasury program; cuts to executive compensation and“golden parachute” severance plans for companies participating in the rescue plan; tax relief for struggling homeowners; plus a standard property tax deduction for 28 million who do not itemize on their Federal taxes; and help for community banks suffering losses from the collapse of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
The law also included bipartisan, Baucus-championed relief promoting jobs, energy, and families:
Approximately $18 billion in job-creating alternative energy tax incentives,including a new consumer credit for plug-in vehicles; a new credit of up to $20/ton for CO2 captured and permanently stored by industrial users; a one-year extension of the Sec. 45 Production Tax Credit for wind and refined coal, and atwo-year extension (through 2010) for other sources, including biomass,geothermal, landfill gas, etc.; new investment credits for coal facilities thatcapture and store at least 65 percent of their carbon emissions, extensions of investment credits for business and residential solar property, and an extension of the deductions and credits for efficient commercial buildings, energy-efficient new homes, and improvements to existing homes.
A two-year extension of expiring tax cuts for businesses and families, including the college tuition tax deduction, the state and local sales tax deduction, the teacher tax credit, and the research and development tax credit, plus natural disaster relief, and parity for mental health treatment.
Protection for approximately 20 million additional American taxpayers from the Alternative Minimum Tax this year, by increasing the AMT exemption to $69,950 for joint returns and $46,200 for unmarried taxpayers and allowing the personal credits against the AMT.
A five year extension of the Wool Trust Fund and the suspension of some wool duties through 2013. The wool trust fund assists sheep ranchers throughout the country by funding research and development, collecting and disseminating information on sheep, wool markets, and wool production, and opening new markets for U.S. wool and wool products. The wool trust fund is the onlynationwide program for wool growers and nearly 70,000 wool producers benefit from its producer information and product development services. The wool duty relief provisions reduce tariffs on certain high-quality wool fabrics and yarn that are not produced in sufficient quantities in the United States to meet the needs of U.S. textile makers. The reduced tariff treatment helps these textile makers remain competitive with imported products, maintaining high-quality jobs in this sector.
The Heroes Assistance and Relief Act (H.R. 6081 Public Law 110-245): This law provided more than $1.2 billion in tax relief to America’s veterans and soldiers. The legislation included tax cuts for members of the military receiving combat pay, saving for retirement, or purchasing their own homes. It also helps civilian employers of militarymen and women keep jobs available for soldiers who are called to active duty. Among other provisions, the law enables the families of reservists killed in the line of duty to collect life insurance and other benefits provided by civilian employers, and allows the families of soldiers killed to contribute up to 100 percent of survivor benefits to retirement or education savings plans. It also helps businesses to support military personnel, granting a tax cut to small businesses that continue paying some salary to members of the National Guard and Reserves who are called to duty.
The Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 (H.R. 3221 Public Law 110-289): The legislation, which passed July 30, helps to protect homeowners and shore up the American housing market. The law provided $13.7 billion to create a home ownership tax credit. The Home Ownership Preservation Entity Fund was established to fund the HOPE for Homeowners Program, insuring up to $300 billion for 30 year refinanced loans for distressed borrowers between October 1, 2008 and September 30, 2011. The legislation also provides funding for local governments to redevelop abandoned and foreclosed property.
Unemployment Insurance (S. 3507/H.R. 6867, Public Law 110-449, and H.R. 2642,Public Law 110-252): In the face of the current recession, the Unemployment Compensation Extension Act of 2008 will further extend national unemployment insurance benefits and provide additional benefits to workers in states with higher unemployment rates. Prior to that, the Iraq Supplemental Funding Bill included 13 additional weeks of extended benefits for unemployed workers.
The Iraq Supplemental Funding Bill also included a provision postponing until April 1, 2009 the effective date of six Medicaid regulations issued by HHS. The regulations would have reduced Federal funding to the Medicaid program by nearly $20 billion,shifting billions of dollars in health care costs to state and local governments at a time when they were already under tremendous financial pressure.
Disaster assistance and agriculture tax measures in the Farm Bill (H.R. 2419/S.2242, Public Law 110-234): The Farm Bill included a Baucus-created trust fund to helpranchers and farmers hurt by crop and livestock losses, allowed participants in the Conservation Reserve Program and other conservation programs to choose between theregular cash payment and a tax credit for participating in the programs, and offered additional incentives for rural economic and energy-related tax relief to aid agricultural producers. Creating the disaster assistance trust fund and converting payment programs to tax credits also freed up previously obligated spending funds for the Agriculture Committee to use elsewhere on farm bill spending programs. The Finance Committee provided funding for the Farm Bill with changes in customs user fees under the jurisdiction of the panel. Other Finance-related measures in the Farm Bill included:
Conservation easement and ESA tax (S. 2223): This measure extended for 2 years, through December 31, 2009, the charitable tax deduction for conservation easements and established a new program allowing tax credits or deductions for landowners who manage their land for the protection and restoration of habitat for threatened or endangered species.
Softwood Lumber Declaration Program: To ensure that our trade agreements governing softwood lumber are fully enforced, Baucus spearheaded the inclusion of a softwood lumber importer declaration program in the 2008 Farm Bill,requiring U.S. importers to declare that their softwood lumber imports are consistent with the terms of international agreements, including the 2006 U.S.–Canada Softwood Lumber Agreement, requiring U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to verify that importers have accurately completed their declarations, and requiring CBP to assess penalties for false declarations.
First Sale: The Farm Bill expressed the sense of Congress that Customs and Border Protection should not change its longstanding “first sale” practice, by which importers determine the duty owed on an imported good, the importer needs to establish its value. Under the “first sale” practice, importers assess the value of imported goods based on the “first sale,” or first arms-length transaction of goods destined for the United States.
Caribbean trade preferences: The Farm bill also modified U.S. trade preferences for Haiti to expand benefits to that country, and extended the Caribbean Basin Trade Partnership Act for two years.
Cellulosic Biofuels: This credit was first created by the Finance Committee in June 2007. The Farm bill provided a new, temporary production tax credit for Cellulosic biofuels through 2012. Cellulosic fuels can be produced from agricultural waste, wood chips, switch grass and other non-food feedstocks, and hold tremendous promise as a home-grown alternative source to fossil-based fuels.
The Worker, Retiree, and Employer Recovery Act (H.R. 7327): Chairman Baucus, in cooperation with Senator Grassley, and Senator Kennedy and Senator Enzi of the Health, Education, Labor and Pensions (HELP) Committee drafted and ushered through Congress a bill that includes modifications to pension distribution requirements for seniors and businesses. Among the provisions is a measure to provide relief for seniors age 70 and 1/2 or older who are required to take distributions from their retirement plans under current law. The provision would allow savings to stay put and avoid a tax hit for seniors when the market is down. Another measure gives generally healthy multi employerpension plans that were hurt by the decline in the stock market the ability to avoid drastic contribution increases and cutbacks in worker benefits. Additional provisions in the bill allow single-employer pension plans to account for expected and unexpected earnings in addition to contributions and distributions when determining the value of the plan’s assets. Other provisions in the bill were also included in the Pension Protection Technical Correction Act of 2008, originally passed by the Senate inDecember 2007 and the House in March and July of this year.
Andean Trade Preference Act (H.R. 7222, Public Law 110-446): The ATPA provides four Andean countries – Colombia, Peru, Ecuador, and Bolivia – duty-free access to the U.S. market for a variety of products. Congress extended these preferences to Peru andColombia for one year, and to Ecuador and Bolivia for six months. The legislation allows the President to extend benefits for Ecuador an additional six months unless hefinds that Ecuador is not meeting ATPA’s eligibility criteria. The President may also extend benefits to Bolivia an additional six months, but only if he finds that Bolivia ismeeting all of ATPA’s eligibility criteria. The ATPA bill also included a number of other extensions or modifications of key trade preference and other programs, includingthe Generalized System of Preferences, the Dominican Republic Earned Import Allowance Program, and the African Growth and Opportunity Act.
Fostering Connections to Success and Increasing Adoptions Act (HR 6893, PublicLaw 110-351): This bill to improve child welfare standards and policies increased incentives for moving children from foster care to adoptive homes, allowed more children to be cared for by their own relatives and in their own communities, created opportunities for children aging out of foster care so that they are able to pursue education or vocational training, and reauthorized the Adoption Incentives program to allow more families to receive adoption assistance. Baucus particularly championed the provision that increases Tribal Access to Foster Care and Adoption.
Baucus was also instrumental in ensuring that Trade Adjustment Assistance benefits continue following a lapse in the program, pressing Korea to agree to a protocol calling for a fully open market for U.S. beef in that country, extending the Federal Aviation Administration Act, clarifying the term of the Commissioner of Revenue, and ensuring that changes to the Lacey Act in the Farm Bill were enacted in a manner that curbed tradein illegally harvested plants without disrupting legitimate commerce. The Finance panel also confirmed Douglas Shulman as the IRS Commissioner and Montanan Ed Eck to the IRS Oversight Board.

Metro Transit, CMT and Regional Partners Share Special Thank You This Valentine’s Day
Metro Transit is teaming up with Citizens for Modern Transit (CMT), the MetroLink Police Unit, St. Clair County Transit District and the University of Missouri-St. Louis to share the love on Valentine’s Day.
From 6:30 a.m. to 8 a.m. on Thursday, February 14, Metro ambassadors, police officers, Metro Transit security officers and others will be at 14 Metro Transit Centers to greet you and give away Valentine’s Day candy. Your commute may get even sweeter because some of the candy boxes will have a free 2-hour pass, a one-day pass, a weekly or a monthly transit pass attached.
“The goal behind this effort is simple – we want Metro Transit riders to know we appreciate them, while raising awareness about the many benefits of public transit,” said Taulby Roach, President and Chief Executive Officer of Bi-State Development. “We show this appreciation by providing customers what they want, not only a safe ride, but a comfortable ride – a ride where they can use the time on our system to return emails, read a book, or sit back and relax.”

Photo booths will be set up at the Civic Center, Fairview Heights and North County Transit Centers, so you take a special photo and share it on social media. Y98 street team members will be at the Civic Center Transit Center with music, games, and prizes.
“A safe, reliable public transit system also plays a key role in stimulating economic development, attracting and retaining business, establishing healthier communities, connecting individuals to job opportunities, furthering equality, and building sustainable communities,” said Kimberly Cella, Executive Director of CMT. “We have a very solid system in our region, and the ‘Wake Up to a Sweeter Commute’ events are a fun way to recognize this and reinforce why so many are crushing on transit.”
The MetroLink Police Unit, CMT, Metro Transit, St. Clair County Transit District and the University of Missouri – St. Louis are all members of the Transit Advisory Working Group, which was established to help improve safety and security on MetroLink and restore public confidence in St. Louis’ main public transportation system. The Transit Advisory Working Group is comprised of a diverse cross-section of riders, MetroBus and MetroLink operators, and regional stakeholders that also include representatives from Amalgamated Transit Union Local 788, East-West Gateway Council of Governments, Organization for Black Struggle, SEIU Local 1, St. Louis Community College, St. Louis Regional Chamber and Washington University, as well as prosecutors and law enforcement officials from the City of St. Louis, St. Louis County and St. Clair County.

Colorado uses Emergency Management Performance Grants
to purchase amateur radio equipment for use in Emergency
Operation Centers and mobile communications vehicles throughout the state. In partnership with State officials, ARES uses these resources to ensure functioning emergency communications during incident operations.
In 2013, Colorado experienced historic rainfall and flooding. The National Weather Service recorded rainfall amounts exceeding eight inches in the City of Boulder on September 12th, and amounts exceeding four inches the next day. That same day, the Boulder Creek, which flows roughly eastward through town, crested in downtown Boulder at 7.78 feet—the highest water level observed at that location since 1894. Thousands of residents faced power outages and evacuation orders in the Denver-Boulder area as officials called in the National Guard to assist rescue efforts. Schools, businesses, and government offices closed. Surrounding roads remained closed and impassable leaving several mountain communities isolated.
As part of the response effort, 150 ARES volunteers in Colorado’s Northeast Region deployed to assist. When floodwater threatened the electronic controls of a wastewater facility serving a community of 80,000 people, ARES established a microwave SCADA
The Lessons Learned Information Sharing program defines Innovative Practice as successful and innovative procedures, techniques, or methods developed and/or implemented by the emergency management or response community to adapt to changing circumstances that others may wish to emulate.
Figure 1: ARES volunteers established data radio links atop ridges to communicate with a wastewater plant’s SCADA system
(Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) network using two grant-funded repeaters. This enabled ARES to collect data from sensors at the facility and take remote control of the plant. ARES maintained control of the facility for four months—preventing any wastewater from spilling into the floodwater.
Since 2005, Colorado has invested over $33 million in State Homeland Security Program and Emergency Management Performance Grants to establish a statewide interoperable trunked radio system that provides continuous coverage for daily operations and emergencies throughout 95 percent of the state. This capability is augmented with a $250,000 investment of Federal and state matching funds into communications equipment caches. The state manages a lending system of 100 grant-purchased radios, 25 satellite phones, and two cell-on-wheels. The caches support response efforts throughout the state, including the 2012 and 2013 fires, they also support recovery efforts—as of April 2014, 17 satellite phones maintain communications with the crews rebuilding a highway destroyed by the 2013 floods.

New Force for Change Video Featuring Rogue One Star Felicity Jones
Last week, Walt Disney Pictures and Lucasfilm revealed the first Rogue One trailer to over 30 million views, and now star Felicity Jones — the rebellious Jyn Erso herself — is leading another righteous cause. In a new Force for Change video, Jones announces that a helmet signed by the Rogue One cast will be the new prize you will be eligible for after donating to the organization, which raises money for groups like Make-A-Wish, Unicef and the Red Cross. Check out the Force for Change video below, and donate here!
RELATED: Over 40 Screenshots from the Rogue One: A Star Wars Story Teaser Trailer
Felicity Jones (The Theory of Everything) leads the cast of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story and is joined by Diego Luna (Milk, Killing Them Softly), Ben Mendelsohn (“Bloodline,” Mississippi Grind), Donnie Yen (Ip Man, Blade II), Jiang Wen (Let the Bullets Fly, Devils on the Doorstep), Forest Whitaker (The Last King of Scotland), Mads Mikkelsen (“Hannibal,” Casino Royale), Alan Tudyk (“Firefly”) who plays a performance-capture character in the film, and Riz Ahmed (Nightcrawler, Four Lions).
Rogue One tells the story of resistance fighters who have united to steal plans to the dreaded Death Star. “Rogue One takes place before the events of Star Wars: A New Hope and will be a departure from the saga films but have elements that are familiar to the Star Wars universe,” said Kathleen Kennedy. “It goes into new territory, exploring the galactic struggle from a ground-war perspective while maintaining that essential Star Wars feel that fans have come to know. Gareth is such an innovative director and I’m so excited to be working with him and the extraordinary ensemble cast he’s selected for ‘Rogue One.’”
John Knoll, the Academy Award-winning visual effects supervisor who currently serves as chief creative officer at Industrial Light & Magic, is executive producing the film along with Simon Emanuel (The Dark Knight Rises, Fast & Furious 6) and Jason McGatlin (Tintin, War of the Worlds). Kathleen Kennedy and Tony To (“Band of Brothers,” “The Pacific”) are on board to produce with John Swartz (Star Wars: The Force Awakens) attached to co-produce. It was also recently confirmed that Alexandre Desplat (The Grand Budapest Hotel, The King’s Speech) will be providing the score.
Directed by Gareth Edwards, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story is set for release on December 16, 2016.

A SUMMARY OF THE SIX PRIORITY SECTORS FOR DIVERSIFICATION
Nigeria is a country endowed with human and natural resources, but this has remained relatively untapped over the years. The growth experienced since transitioning from agriculture in the late 1960’s has been driven by consumption and high oil prices.
Thereby, making the economy highly dependent on crude oil prices and production. Unlike Cameroon, the Nigerian economy is undiversified, with oil accounting for 95 per cent of exports and foreign exchange earnings.
The Nigerian economy is characterised by structural challenges that limit its ability to sustain growth, create jobs and achieve poverty reduction. These structural challenges include;
High dependency on a single commodity for economic activities, fiscal revenues and foreign exchange – Oil.
Raw materials and intermediate goods being imported to sustain the manufacturing sector.
The economy is skewed towards consumption rather than investment, with gross domestic investment to gross domestic product ratio hovering at 13-14 percent.
As forecasted by some technocrats, the recent collapse of crude oil prices and production put the economy in a recession with high inflation rate. Thereby, spurring the Government of Nigeria to develop the Economic Recovery and Growth Plan aimed at mitigating the depreciating economy.
The Economic Recovery and Growth Plan (ERGP), “a Medium Term Plan for 2017 – 2020, builds on the Strategic Implementation Plan (a short term intervention plan initiated to tackle the economic decline by prioritising three policy goals: tackling corruption, improving security and re-building the economy) and has been developed for the purpose of restoring economic growth while leveraging the ingenuity and resilience of the Nigerian people – the nation’s most priceless assets.”
The Medium Term Plan is to restore growth by focusing on diversifying six priority sectors in the economy.
AGRICULTURE:
This sector was divided into four sub-sectors; 1. Crop production 2. Livestock 3. Fishing 4. Forestry. Agriculture accounted for 23.1 per cent of GDP and employed 38 per cent of the working population in 2015.
Challenges –
The sector faces four big challenges: limited access to financing and inputs for farmers; serious threat of climate change on yield; limited access of agricultural outputs to the national and international markets; and security threats to agricultural investments including cattle rustling, kidnapping, and destruction of farmlands by herdsmen.
Growth Plan –
The Federal Government launched a series of programmes to increase access to financing. There are plans to improve the condition of infrastructures (roads, irrigation and storage facilities) that limit rural farmers’ access to national and international markets. The report also highlighted the size of irrigable land being made available for prospective investors.
Targets –
Government plans to achieve a significant reduction in food imports, with the aim of becoming a net exporter of key agricultural products like rice, tomato, vegetable oil, cashew nuts, groundnuts, cassava, poultry, fish, and livestock.
Nigeria has set a bold target to become self-sufficient in tomato paste (by 2017), rice (by 2018), and wheat (by 2019/2020).
MANUFACTURING:
The sub-sectors of manufacturing with the largest impact are; 1. Agro-processing (food) 2. Light manufacturing (textile) 3. Resource processing (cement). These sectors enjoyed sustained growth in 2010-2015.
There is a reliance on access to foreign exchange for import of intermediate goods and raw materials. The sector suffers from limited access to credit and financial services, poor infrastructure and unreliable power supply. These challenges increase input costs and reduce the overall competitiveness and profitability of the sector.
The Federal Government plans to develop four industry group where Nigeria already possesses a clear comparative advantage; 1. Agri-business and agro-allied: building an end-to-end integrated agriculture value chain 2. Solid minerals and metals: Attract large scale investors to institutionalise world-class production standards in the country’s solid minerals sector 3. Oil and Gas related industries: encourage high value-adding downstream investments 4. Construction, light manufacturing and services: leverage housing needs, business and infrastructure needs.
Nigeria plans to move manufacturing GDP from a dip of -7.84 per cent in 2016 to 10.6 per cent in 2020, by increasing local R&D, technology and innovation.
Solid Minerals:
The report claims that this is Nigeria’s most promising sector, with GDP contribution doubling from N52 billion in 2010 to N103 billion in 2015.
Mining is rudimentary and predominantly undertaken by small entrepreneurs and unlicensed, unskilled individuals, a situation that aggravates health hazards and environmental degradation. The lack of geoscience information is a barrier to investment, coupled with the lack of infrastructure and financing. Community unrest and low productivity constantly drain federal resources.
Facilitating the production of coal to fire power plants is an avenue the Federal government hopes to increase the sectors’ contribution to the economy. This plan would work alongside integrating artisanal miners into the formal sector, where everyone would be encouraged to participate in mineral processing and value addition industries that strengthen backward and forward linkages.
The Federal government has come up with two ambitious plans; 1. Grow solid minerals GDP from N103 billion (2015) to N141 billion (2020) at an average annual growth rate of 8.54 per cent (2017-2020), 2. Produce geological maps of the entire country by 2020 (on a scale of 1:100,000).
The service sector is Nigeria’s biggest contributor to the economy, growing an average of 5.8 per cent per year in 2010 – 2015. The four main services sub-sector with a keen interest to develop are: telecommunication and information and communication technology (ICT), financial services, tourism and creative industries. Telecommunication remains critical for restoring growth, considering it was the second fastest growing sector in absolute terms.
Disjointed and inadequate policies, weak institutional frameworks, and poor ICT infrastructures are some challenges affecting the telecommunications and ICT sub-sector. Tourism currently struggles with the low level of global awareness of the country’s tourist attractions, and lack of attractive options for vacationing. Nigeria has one of the fastest-growing entertainment industries, however, suffers from weak intellectual and property rights regime.
Achieve cutting-edge global ICT standards, develop more ICT infrastructures, and encourage local production of ICT hard and software to reduce import dependencies. The financial services hope to encourage lending to agriculture and manufacturing sectors through syndication with development banks and at affordable lending rates and minimum other charges. Promoting local content in the tourism industry will help conserve foreign exchange.
Increase the current coverage of the active mobile broadband subscription per 100 from 20.95 to 50 per cent in 2020. In tourism, the target is to increase the number of visitors to Nigeria by 10 per cent a year (from 2017). Nigeria has an ambition plan to generate USD1 billion from exported videos by 2020.
CONSTRUCTION AND REAL ESTATE:
This industry is forecast to grow at an average of 5.39 per cent in 2017 – 2020 on the back of private and public investment, despite its disappointing growth in 2016.
High cost of building houses and borrowing constrains the sector. Which could be mitigated with social housing programme under a PPP arrangement.
Increase the availability of financing for the industry, while investing in technical and vocational training for craftsmen.
Recapitalise the Federal Mortgage Bank of Nigeria from N2.5 billion to N500 billion. Construct 12 new and rehabilitate 23 existing Federal secretariat complexes in the states.
OIL AND GAS:
Divided into two sub-sectors, upstream production of crude oil and natural gas, and downstream activities like refineries and petrochemicals. The upstream sector has been the main pillar of Nigeria’s economy for decades.
Repeated attacks on oil pipelines and production facilities by the Niger Delta militants.
Increase upstream oil production and accompanying revenues, and develop gas production and the domestic oil refining industry to meet internal demand, and export refined products.
Restore oil production to 2.2 mbpd in 2017 and increase it to 2.5 mbpd by 2020. Increase local refining capacity to meet domestic demand and become a net exporter of petroleum products by 2019.
In summary, the ERGP is a blueprint for recovery in the short term and a strategy for sustained growth and development in the long term. The report clearly showed that the Federal Government recognises the economic challenges facing the country, and has been working tirelessly to develop a plan to mitigate the issues faced by her citizens. These bold plans and targets are all good on paper, but may fall short of expectation when implementing. The root cause being that “you” and “I” fail to remember that change begins within. Increasing national productivity and achieving sustainable diversification can only start with “me”. From our in-house analyses, we concluded that the ERGP seeks to “promote national prosperity and an efficient, dynamic and self-reliant economy to secure the maximum welfare, freedom and happiness of every citizen on the basis of social justice and equality of status and opportunity” (Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999, Chapter II, Section 16). To this end, we commend the Federal Government and all well meaning citizens and friends who teamed up to seek a solution to our economic challenges.

Jazz Singer Oleta Adams to Tribute Sir Elton John at Service to America Awards
WASHINGTON, D.C. - Grammy nominated singer/songwriter Oleta Adams will perform a musical tribute to Sir Elton John during the NAB Education Foundation's ninth annual Service to America Awards celebration June 11 at the National Building Museum in Washington, DC. The celebration recognizes outstanding community service by local broadcasters and other leading citizens.
In 1991, Adams' interpretation of Sir Elton John's hit "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me" was released on the tribute album Two Rooms: Celebrating the Songs of Elton John & Bernie Taupin. Prior to her participation in Two Rooms, Adams released her debut album, Circle of One, in 1990. The album went platinum, with the hit single "Get Here" known to many as the unofficial anthem of the 1991 Gulf War. Since then, Adams has toured throughout the U.S. and Europe, impressing fans with her strong gospel roots and creative energy. Her versatility and diverse musical influences earned Adams a reputation as a marquis jazz entertainer.
Adams spent her formative years in Washington state, where she first demonstrated vocal talent in the Pilgrim Rest Baptist Church. After a brief stint in Los Angeles, Adams moved to Kansas City where she launched her professional career playing piano bars, hotel lounges and showrooms before Tears for Fears frontmen Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith asked her to appear on their 1989 album The Seeds of Love, video and European tour. Upon her return to the U.S. Adams signed a record deal for her first solo album.

CHRISTIE ADMINISTRATION ANNOUNCES POST-SUPERSTORM SANDY
FLOOD MITIGATION STUDIES BY NEW JERSEY UNIVERSITIES
(13/P91) TRENTON – The Christie Administration, through the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) and the Governor’s Office of Recovery and Rebuilding (GORR), announced today that six New Jersey colleges and universities are collaborating with the state to evaluate flood mitigation strategies. The studies will focus on areas of the state heavily impacted by Superstorm Sandy that may be vulnerable to future flooding.
Rutgers University, Stevens Institute of Technology, New Jersey Institute of Technology, Stockton College, Monmouth University and Montclair State University will examine various regions of the state to devise flood mitigation strategies for communities impacted by flooding from portions of the Hudson River, Hackensack River, Arthur Kill, Barnegat Bay and Delaware Bay.
Incorporating perspectives from local communities and stakeholders, the research projects will examine a range of solutions for communities like Hoboken, Little Ferry and Moonachie in northern New Jersey; to Linden and Woodbridge in central New Jersey; from Brick and Toms River at the Jersey Shore; to Lawrence and Downe in the southern part of the state. It is also anticipated that strategies developed for these regions could be applied to similarly situated communities throughout the State.
Results of the studies are expected to be developed over the next six months and presented to the Department of Environmental Protection, and be made available to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in connection with its comprehensive coastal study.
“This is an important endeavor that will utilize some of the best science and engineering minds in New Jersey to analyze problems and offer potential long-term solutions,” said DEP Commissioner Bob Martin. “We look forward to incorporating the schools into our recovery and rebuilding strategies, particularly as we rebound from Superstorm Sandy and look to build a stronger and more resilient New Jersey for the future.”
The university flood mitigation analyses are part of an overall effort by the Christie Administration to make the state more resilient in the post-Sandy era. The State will incorporate the findings from these studies into its work with the Army Corps on its $20 million comprehensive study of the coastal North Atlantic Region. The state has actively worked on other hazard mitigation initiatives including home elevations, buyouts, demolitions, and beach restoration and protection projects.
Last month, the state launched a $100 million home elevation program in the nine counties hardest hit by Superstorm Sandy, providing eligible applicants up to $30,000 to help finance elevations of single-family homes under the Hazard Mitigation Grant Program.
Governor Christie in July announced the first buyout offers of Sayreville homes, part of the Administration’s plan to acquire 1,000 homes impacted by Superstorm Sandy and another 300 repetitively flood-damaged homes in the Passaic River Basin through the DEP’s Blue Acres program.
The post-Sandy studies to be done by the colleges and universities will analyze flood-prone areas that were impacted by unexpected tidal surges during Sandy, resulting in severe damage to homes and businesses, but which are not the focus of current or planned future U.S. Army Corps of Engineers flood-impact projects.
“We look forward to working with the Department of Environmental Protection and the other universities involved in this effort to develop comprehensive strategies and meet the challenges our communities face,” said Qizhong (George) Guo, Ph.D., P.E., professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Rutgers University. “We will draw on expertise of our professors, research staff and students to develop solutions designed to make New Jersey more resilient to flooding.
Each participating educational institution will work on the following research initiatives:
Stevens University: Flood adaptation strategies for the Hudson River Waterfront in Hoboken, Jersey City, Weehawken and Bayonne; storm surge reduction alternatives for Barnegat Bay.
Rutgers University: Identification, modeling and green practices for developing flood risk reduction strategies through drainage systems along the Hudson River at Hoboken and Jersey City, the Hackensack River at Moonachie and Little Ferry and along Barnegat Bay; strategies for flood risk reductions on the Arthur Kill at Elizabeth, Linden, Rahway and Woodbridge and the Delaware Bay in Salem and Cumberland counties.
New Jersey Institute of Technology: Modeling potential flood impacts and assess alternatives for hard structures for flood protection on Hackensack River; preparation of ecosystem inventory for natural resources and start of environmental constraints analysis and risk assessment statewide.
Stockton College: Analysis of potential wetlands enhancement in Barnegat Bay estuary, including the use of dredge material to enhance wetlands for surge protection.
Monmouth University: Various assistance on Stevens University and Rutgers University Hudson River projects; development of final report in Stockton’s Barnegat Bay project.
Montclair State University: Technical assistance to Rutgers’ Hudson River project.
The academic studies are being administered by the DEP’s Flood Control Section and Office of Engineering and Construction. Funding for the grant will come from the DEP’s annual flood control appropriations.
New Jersey historically has taken a strong role in the development of rigorous floodplain management at the state level, while also supporting federal efforts with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the Army Corps of Engineers.

Alabama Birding Trails Logo
Alabama Birding Trails are a series of birding-related sites covering all areas of the state that offer visitors opportunities to view resident and migratory birds. The Trails are grouped into eight regions that range from mountains to beaches to woodlands. The entire system is managed by a consortium of state and private organizations. Major funding for the system is provided by the Alabama Tourism Department, project management is overseen by the University of Alabama Center for Economic Development, and environmental management is overseen by the Alabama Department of Conservation and Natural Resources. Additional federal, state, and local agencies and organizations provide assistance as needed.
Alabama is one of the most biologically diverse states in the United States, with more 33 million acres of freshwater surface area, a varied topography, and a mild climate. These features result in a wide and diverse array of year-round birds in the state. But it is also attractive to migrating bird species. Alabama is also located on the migration route known as the Mississippi Flyway, used each spring and fall by birds traveling between winter habitats in southern states and Central and South America and summer breeding grounds in Canada and the United States. The route is attractive to birds because there is ample food and water along its length and no mountain ranges to cause additional effort in their travels.
Alabama Coastal Birding Trail Sign
The Alabama Birding Trails began, in 2001, as the Alabama Coastal Birding Trail (ACBT), the very first site in what would become a statewide system. In April of that year, local bird watchers, local conservation groups, the U.S. Department of Fish and Wildlife Service, and the Alabama Gulf Coast Convention and Visitors Bureau joined together to dedicate the ACBT. Bob Reid, of the Alabama Ornithological Society, along with John Porter, of the Dauphin Island Audubon Sanctuary, led the organizing efforts to form the trail, using the popular Great Texas Coastal Birding Trails in Texas as a model. Its popularity inspired other areas of the state to establish trails of their own.
In 2009, members of the Birmingham Audubon Society (now Alabama Audubon), the state chapter of the national birding enthusiasts' and bird conservation organization, coordinated with the Alabama Tourism Department to develop a birding trail in north Alabama. Volunteers scouted numerous sites along the proposed trail and then expanded their scouting efforts to sites that would eventually become part of the Wiregrass Birding Trail and the West Alabama Birding Trail. The popularity of these sites sparked the development of the additional regional trails.
That same year, the Birmingham Audubon Society, working with the Alabama Tourism Department and the Alabama Department of Conservation, began developing a birding trail across North Alabama as well. Volunteers again scouted sites and chose the ones with the best birding opportunities. In late 2009, the project was expanded to include the Piedmont Plateau Birding Trail. The Piney Woods Birding Trail and the Black Belt Trail soon followed, with the Black Belt Trail temporarily transformed into a more expansive heritage trail. Planning for the Appalachian Birding Trail, the West Alabama Birding Trail, and the Wiregrass Birding Trail began in 2010. Late that year, the University of Alabama Center for Economic Development was tasked with managing the project by the Alabama Tourism Department. Trails were dedicated over the next two years, after sites were reviewed by a team of volunteer naturalists and bird watchers. The project leaders created a website to assist the general public in finding and using these various trails, and their enthusiastic users have developed a loyal and expanding presence on social media, connecting trail users with each other to provide tips, share photos, and offer bird identification.
The Coastal Birding Trail (CBT) is comprised of 50 sites Baldwin County and Mobile County. In addition to boardwalks and hiking trails, the CBT also offers visitors six driving loops with stopoffs along each route. Ecological habitats include beaches, marshes, open fields, and swamps. Sites on the trail include USS Alabama Battleship Memorial Park, Bellingrath Gardens, Fort Morgan, and Dauphin Island Bird Sanctuary.
Eufaula National Wildlife Refuge
The Wiregrass Birding Trail features 21 sites in ten counties in Alabama's southeastern corner, known as the Wiregrass for the native grass species found in the region. Stops on the trail include Florala City Wetland Park in Covington County, Eufaula National Wildlife Refuge in Barbour County, and Geneva State Forest in Geneva County.
The Piney Woods Trail encompasses 22 sites in five counties in the southwestern part of the state and ranges in habitat from locks and dams, public fishing lakes, and a canoe trail as well as one of the most significant places in state history, the site of the very first territorial capital. Sites include Old St. Stephens Historical Park in Washington County, Haines Island Park in Monroe County, and Turtle Point Environmental Science Center in Escambia County.
The West Alabama Trail comprises 28 sites in nine counties in the west-central and northwestern section of the state. Habitats range from forests and riverine environments to prehistoric and historical sites. They include Moundville Archaeological Park in Hale County, the University of Alabama Arboretum, Cahaba River National Wildlife Refuge in Bibb County, and, notably, the site of a protected colony of red-cockaded woodpeckers in the Oakmulgee Ranger District of the Talladega National Forest in Bibb and Hale Counties.
The Black Belt Trail stretches across the center of the state and encompasses 32 sites in 11 counties. Habitats in this region, named for its rich black soil, range from heavily populated urban areas to historic sites to deep pine forests. Notable sites include Selma's Live Oak Cemetery in Dallas County, the Montgomery Zoo in Montgomery County, Perry Lakes Park in Perry County, and Choctaw National Wildlife Refuge in Choctaw County.
The Piedmont Plateau Trail consists of 40 sites in nine counties in the east-central section of the state in a range of woodland, wetland, and open habitats. They encompass an institute of higher education, Central Alabama Community College and Alabama's highest point, Mount Cheaha, as well as a historic park that preserves Alabama's colonial history, Fort Toulouse-Fort Jackson. Sites include Horseshoe Bend National Military Park in Tallapoosa County, Auburn University's Louise Kreher Forest Ecology Preserve in Lee County, and Alligator Creek Park in Chambers County.
Weiss Lake View
The Appalachian Highlands Trail consists of 40 sites in nine counties in the northeastern corner of the state. Habitats range from open fields to open water to forested mountains as well as several urban and surburban environments. Some of the notable stops on the trail are Aldridge Gardens in Jefferson County, Cherokee Rock Village in Cherokee County, and Shoal Creek Park in Shelby County.
The North Alabama Trail stretches across the entire north quarter of the state along its border with Tennessee and the Tennessee River. It encompasses 50 sites in 12 counties ranging from huge areas of open water in the Wheeler National Wildlife Refuge in Morgan County to the grasslands of Alabama A&M University's Winfred Thomas Agricultural Research Station in Madison County. Other notable sites include DeSoto State Park in DeKalb County, Hurricane Creek Park in Cullman County, and Lake Guntersville State Park in Marshall County.

Elem Eley
American baritone Elem Eley enjoys a remarkably varied career, from opera, oratorio and recital to premieres of art song and cabaret music. The new season (2007-2008) features Carmina Burana with Richard Westenburg conducting Musica Sacra, in a concert at the Rose Theater, Jazz at Lincoln Center. That concert will include the world premiere of a yet untitled cantata by for solo baritone and orchestra, by Italian composer/conductor Alessandro Cadario. Mr. Eley also returns to the Springfield (MO) Symphony for the great Ninth (“Choral”) Symphony of Beethoven, and to Princeton Pro Musica for Mozart’s Requiem. Recitals during this year include a revisit of Schubert’s Winterreise in Princeton (with pianist J.J.

New AI system allows legged robots to navigate unfamiliar terrain in real time
A new AI system, Rapid Motor Adaptation (RMA), enhances the ability of legged robots, without prior experience or calibration, to adapt to, and traverse, unfamiliar terrain in real time. A test robot figured out how to walk on sand, mud, and tall grass, as well as piles of dirt, pebbles, and cement, in fractions of a second. The project is part of an industry-academic collaboration with the Facebook AI Research (FAIR) group and the Berkeley AI Research (BAIR) lab that includes CS Prof. Jitendra Malik as Principal Investigator, his grad student Ashish Kumar as lead author, and alumnus Deepak Pathak (Ph.D. 2019, advisors: Trevor Darrell and Alexei Efros), now an assistant professor at Carnegie Mellon, among others. RMA combines a base policy algorithm that uses reinforcement learning to teach the robot how to control its body, with an adaptation module that teaches the robot how to react based on how its body moves when it interacts with a new environment. “Computer simulations are unlikely to capture everything,” said Kumar. “Our RMA-enabled robot shows strong adaptation performance to previously unseen environments and learns this adaptation entirely by interacting with its surroundings and learning from experience. That is new.” RMA's base policy and adaptation module run asynchronously and at different frequencies so that it can operate reliably on a small onboard computer.

Cloud startup Databricks raises $1 billion in Series G funding
Databricks, a cloud startup founded by CS Adjunct Assistant Prof. Ali Ghodsi, CS Prof. Scott Shenker, CS Prof. Ion Stoica, and alumni Andrew Konwinski (M.S. '09/Ph.D. 12, advisor: Randy Katz), Reynold Xin (Ph.D. '13, advisor: Ion Stoica), Patrick Wendell (M.S. '13, advisor: Ion Stoica), and Matei Zaharia (Ph.D. '13, advisors: Scott Shenker & Ion Stoica), has received $1 billion in a Series G funding round. Franklin Templeton led the round and now values the company at $28 billion. Amazon Web Services, CapitalG, the growth equity arm of Google parent Alphabet, and Salesforce Ventures are backing Databricks for the first time, while Microsoft joins a group of existing investors including BlackRock, Coatue, T. Rowe Price and Tiger Global. Ghodsi, who is CEO of the company, says Databricks plans to use the funds to accelerate its international presence. “This lets us really hit the gas and go aggressive in these big markets. It’s almost like starting the company all over again,” he says. Databricks grew out of the AMPLab project and is built on top of Apache Spark, an open-source analytics tool developed at Berkeley. The company provides data analytics and AI tools to businesses. It has grown more than 75% year-over-year, with the majority of its revenue coming from enterprises like Comcast, Credit Suisse, Starbucks and T-Mobile, who use it as a "data lake house"--a place to store structured and unstructured data, then layer business intelligence or machine-learning tools easily on top.

Deep learning helps robots grasp and move objects with ease
CS Prof. Ken Goldberg is the co-author of a study published in Science Robotics which describes the creation of a new artificial intelligence software that gives robots the speed and skill to grasp and smoothly move objects, making it feasible for them to soon assist humans in warehouse environments. He and postdoc Jeffrey Ichnowski had previously created a Grasp-Optimized Motion Planner that could compute both how a robot should pick up an object and how it should move to transfer the object from one location to another, but the motions it generated were jerky. Then they, along with EECS graduate student Yahav Avigal and undergraduate (3rd year MS) student Vishal Satish, integrated a deep learning neural network into the motion planner, cutting the average computation time from 29 seconds to 80 milliseconds, or less than one-tenth of a second. Goldberg predicts that, with this and other advances in robotic technology, robots could be assisting in warehouse environments in the next few years.

Panetta Report 3: Leon Panetta and the Santa Cruz Socialists
June 18, 2011, 11:08 am by Trevor Loudon Leave a Comment
Panetta Report 2 here.
It is now fairly well known that President Barack Obama enjoyed a close relationship with the socialists, Trotskyites and “former” communists, who made up the Chicago Democratic Socialists of America.
It is less well known that while a California Congressman, Obama’s Secretary of Defense nominee Leon Panetta also worked closely with Santa Cruz based members of the US’s largest Marxist organization.
Hugh DeLacy
A key point of contact was Hugh DeLacy, Panetta’s friend and correspondent from at least 1976, until his death in 1986. DeLacy was a long time Communist Party USA member who worked closely with members of the California Communist Party splinter group, who then went on to form the pro-Chinese New American Movement, which in turn joined with the Democratic Socialist Organizing Committee in 1982 to form Democratic Socialists of America.
Santa Cruz New American Movement, and later Democratic Socialists of America, effectively took over the Santa Cruz City Council after NAMers Mike Rotkin and Bruce Van Allen joined with DSOCers Mardi Wormhoudt and John Laird to form a majority on the Council in 1981.
Another local DSAer, former Trotskyite Gordon Haskell, served on the Santa Cruz Democratic Party Central Committee for many years, while several other comrades held senior posts in the local party.
On September 6, 1986, Leon Panetta addressed a memorial service for Hugh DeLacy at the Louden Nelson Center in Santa Cruz.
Mardi Wormhoudt
Some of the names on the list above indicate the circles that both DeLacy and Panetta were moving in at the time.
Presenter Mardi Wormhoudt was a member of the Democratic Socialist Organizing Committee, who became a Santa Cruz City Councilmember in 1981 and went on to serve three terms as town Mayor. Wormhoudt, a supporter of Nicaragua’s Marxist-Leninist Sandinista regime, was a delegate on the Let Nicaragua Live Tour for the Coalition for Nicaragua in 1986. She was also a member of a 1987 Sister City Delegation to Alushta in the Soviet Union.
Jack Berman was a life long leftist activist, a veteran of the Communist Party led Independent Progressive Party and an affiliate of the New American Movement. In the 1960s, Berman worked with Hugh DeLacy in support of United Farmworkers founder Cesar Chavez – a disciple, like Barack Obama, of the Chicago based father of “community organizing’ Saul Alinsky.
John McTernan
John McTernan was a Los Angeles lawyer and a several decades veteran of the Communist Party USA. McTernan later joined the New American Movement and eventually the Democratic Socialists of America. In 1974, Hugh DeLacy applied to the Chinese government for a free trip for a delegation that would have included McTernan and several other communists, but the Chinese government ended up only paying for DeLacy and his wife. As a member of D.S.A., McTernan was on a list of wealthy leftists marked as possible funders of D.S.A. programs in Southern California. Others on the list included DSAers Ed Asner and Stanley Sheinbaum (later a supporter of Progressives for Obama), and entertainment figures Casey Kasem, Martin Sheen, Jackson Browne and Danny Goldberg (also Progressives for Obama).
Mike Rotkin
Mike Rotkin had been a member of Students for a Democratic Society. He later went on to become a leader of the New American Movement. Using community-organizing techniques developed by Saul Alinsky, Cesar Chavez, ACORN and Chicago’s Midwest Academy, Rotkin built up a power base on Santa Cruz’s West Side through agitation for a community health center in the area. In 1979, the Westside NAMers sought and obtained the endorsement of then Congressman Leon Panetta for their project. That support was re-affirmed in 1981. Rotkin used this power base to take over the Santa Cruz City Council, where he and his comrades used their power to pass such essential Council initiatives as calling for the withdrawal of all U.S. military and Economic aid to El Salvador and declaring Santa Cruz a nuclear free zone.
Leon Panetta was no stranger to the other speakers at DeLacy’s memorial – he had worked with them for years. When Panetta first entered Congress in 1976, his campaign included staffer Don Lane, a future DSAer and Santa Cruz Mayor.
John Laird
A member of Panetta’s campaign committee that year was John Laird, a Democratic Socialist Organizing Committee member and yet another future Santa Cruz Mayor.
Leon Panetta would later work closely with John Laird in a successful campaign to stop oil drilling off the California Coast. Laird was recently appointed California Secretary of Natural Resources by incoming leftist Governor Jerry Brown.
In the late 1970s, Hugh DeLacy was effectively the California agent for the Chicago based socialist journal In These Times, a project of the New American Movement and the far left “think tank,” the Institute for Policy Studies. Congressman Leon Panetta incidentally served on the Institute for policy Studies’ 20th Anniversary Celebrations Committee in 1983. In 1999, Barack Obama was himself summoned from Chicago to New York to help establish an I.P.S “partner” organization, the leftist non-profit Demos.
James Weinstein
In These Times was run by DeLacy’s friend, a former Communist and New American Movement founder named James Weinstein. In 2002, James Weinstein and his friends Carl Davidson and former NAMer Marilyn Katz, organized an anti-Iraq War rally in Chicago’s Federal Plaza. They invited a then obscure little known Illinois state Senator to speak. Barack Obama used the opportunity to rail against the War, making his first mark on the national stage. The rest is history.
All these connections are of course mere coincidence.
President Obama chose Leon Panetta to head the CIA and serve as Secretary of Defense (despite zero intelligence or military experience), because he was the best man in America for both jobs.
To think anything else would be paranoid… Possibly even racist.

Acclaimed Artist and Philanthropist Kwanza Jones Releases Powerful Anthems of Resilience, Boosts Get Out the Vote Efforts
Press Release . November 8, 2022
Impactful music video and anthemic songs respond to current issues and promote social consciousness and action
LOS ANGELES, CA., Nov. 8, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Multi-hyphenate, top ten Billboard charting artist, Kwanza Jones, creates songs for social change. Her latest three releases, “More Now Than Ever,” “Rise” and “Enough” address issues that are important to voters.
“As an indie artist, I make a conscious choice to use my voice and speak my truth without constraints. It’s a truth that resonates with many. All too often marginalized people and communities lack power, resources, and privilege; that is why I speak. From restrictions on women’s bodies, like the rollback of abortion and reproductive rights, to the shattering of lives by gun violence and mass shootings, to the war in Ukraine and other ongoing conflicts around the world, the stories are numerous and heartbreaking. I’ve seen enough apathy and inaction. I don’t have the luxury to do nothing. I don’t have the luxury to not speak.”
Listen to “More Now Than Ever”|| “Rise” || “Enough”
“More Now Than Ever” is an anthem of resilience and strength in times of uncertainty. The powerful music video for “More Now Than Ever,” features a cast that represents the strength of diversity and unity. The video also highlights children’s voices that are often silenced. The song encourages people to take a stand and make a difference. “It’s a war out there, what can we do about it? Find a battle cry and go and shout it,” said Jones in the song. “Voting is a way to use your voice. Regardless of the outcome of elections, voting is how you make your voice heard. It matters. It is critically important and essential to democracy.”
Watch the “More Now Than Ever” music video
Jones couples her commitment to create message-driven music with her philanthropic endeavors. She awards grants and provides capital to organizations that promote access and equity. Recent grantees include: Women’s Reproductive Rights Assistance Program (WRAAP), Girls Inc., nsoro Foundation, and PFLAG.
Long known for creating art that sparks social change and stands against injustice, in 2017, Jones released “Blah Zey Blah,” a music video, calling out rampant misogyny. In 2019, as a lead up to the 2020 elections, she released ”Problem,” a music video style public service announcement that addresses mass incarceration, racial profiling, immigration, women’s reproductive rights, and systemic racism.
In 2021, Jones released two singles, “Get Out” and “We Buildin’.” The first song was in response to the political and social violence that marked the Presidential transition period. The second song celebrates the possibilities for prosperity in America, and the benefits of diversity in making the country better.
Rounding out culture, and capital, Jones fosters community. She is the founder and CEO of SUPERCHARGED® by Kwanza Jones, a media company that produces inspiring, motivational content coupled with an impact-oriented community. She says, “I founded my company with the belief that no one succeeds alone – sometimes you need a boost.”

Utah’s graphics pioneers
They were a group of young, scrappy, but brilliant University of Utah computer science students and professors who changed the world.
Ed Catmull. John Warnock. Jim Clark. Alan Kay. Ivan Sutherland. Martin Newell. They are a just a handful of the luminaries in the late 1960s and 1970s who revolutionized computer graphics by inventing technologies that have aided and shaped countless industries today.
For the first time ever, these and other legends of that time will be reuniting on the U campus Thursday, March 23, and Friday March 24, to commemorate their roles as 3D graphics pioneers and to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the U’s Kahlert School of Computing.
This once-in-a-lifetime two-day event, which is open to the public, will be held in the ballroom of the University of Utah’s Cleone Peterson Eccles Alumni House, 155 S. Central Campus Drive, in Salt Lake City, Utah. Click here for event information and to RSVP. Events both days will also be livestreamed on the University of Utah’s YouTube channel at www.youtube.com/@universityofutah/streams.
The “Camelot Era”
Led by then computer science professor Ivan Sutherland and David Evans, the University of Utah’s first computer science research program in graphics and interactive computing, these trailblazing graduate students researched and developed ground-breaking innovations in 3D objects and computer animation decades before “Toy Story.” Many have later called this nascent period at the U the “Camelot Era.”
From Martin Newell’s first 3D rendering of a ceramic teapot (famously known as the “Utah Teapot”) and Ivan Sutherland’s 3D model of his old Volkswagen Beetle, to Ed Catmull’s 3D animation of his own hand, these early advances in computer modeling would ignite a revolution that would lead to computer simulations, medical imaging, computer molecular graphics, computer-animated movies, video games and more.
As author Robert Rivlin wrote in his The Algorithmic Image: Graphic Visions of the Computer Age: “Almost every influential person in the modern computer-graphics community either passed through the University of Utah or came into contact with it in some way.”
“The late David Evans was a true visionary to create a center of excellence in computer graphics and interactive computing in the mid 1960s,” said Kahlert School of Computing Director Mary Hall. “Early on, the atmosphere for creative innovation attracted the extraordinarily talented faculty, including Ivan Sutherland and Burroughs computer architect Bob Barton, and success followed from there.”
Historic celebrations
On Thursday, March 23, beginning at 10 a.m. MDT, the Kahlert School of Computing will be celebrating its 50thanniversary with a day-long series of talks and panel discussions about the past, present, and future of one of the country’s top-ranked computer science departments. Speakers will include Sutherland and Telle Whitney, co-founder of Grace Hopper Celebration of Women in Computing and Former CEO of the Anita Borg Institute.
The main event, hosted by the John and Marcia Price College of Engineering and IEEE, begins Friday, March 24 MDT, at 10 a.m. Catmull (co-founder of Pixar Animation), Warnock (co-founder of Adobe), Kay (Xerox PARC), Sutherland, Clark (founder of Netscape and Silicon Graphics) and other legendary researchers including Martin Newell, Jim Blinn, Henry Fuchs and Henri Gouraud will speak and participate in panel discussions about their beginnings at the U.
The morning session will conclude with the presentation of a bronze IEEE Milestone plaque to the University of Utah for its contributions to the development of computer graphics. The plaque will be installed on a granite pedestal on the south lawn of the Merrill Engineering Building. IEEE, the world’s largest professional technical organization, will present the plaque to John and Marcia Price College of Engineering Dean Richard B. Brown and Kahlert School of Computing Director Mary Hall.
In the afternoon, beginning at 1:45 p.m. MDT, the College of Engineering will host a symposium in which these same graphics luminaries will give longer talks on their pioneering work.
“People interested in computing would love to hear from any one of these visionaries who launched the computer graphics revolution, but in this event, we will hear from a dozen of them!” Brown said. “It will be amazing!”

Mischa, Jascha, Toscha, Sascha
May 27, 2015 by Timothy Judd
George and Ira Gershwin
A pop song about the prominent violinists of the day? It seems hard to imagine now. But around 1921 George and Ira Gershwin wrote Mischa, Jascha, Toscha, Sascha, a lighthearted ditty about four great Jewish Russian violinists who were well known at the time: Mischa Elman, Jascha Heifetz, Toscha Seidel, and Sascha Jacobsen. The lyric also refers to “Fritz” (Kreisler) and the legendary teacher Leopold Auer. According to biographer Charles Schwartz, George Gershwin enjoyed playing the song at parties whenever one of the violinists who inspired the title was present.
Heifetz needs no introduction, but who are the others? Born in 1891, Mischa Elman is remembered for his rich, golden tone, expressive portamento, and tendency towards Romantic phrasing which occasionally bent the rhythm. Here is his recording of the Mendelssohn Violin Concerto with the Chicago Symphony. Here is a 1954 recording of Elman performing Dvořák’s Humoresque.
Toscha Seidel’s solo career was, perhaps unfairly, overshadowed by Heifetz. But we can hear the passionate intensity of his playing on recordings like this 1945 live performance of Ernest Chausson’s Poème with the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra conducted by Leopold Stokowski. Seidel eventually settled in California and became a studio soloist for Hollywood films. Listen to this music from the 1939 film Intermezzo which starred Leslie Howard and Ingrid Bergman.
Sascha Jacobsen is another violinist whose career was overshadowed by Heifetz. In his book Great Masters of the Violin, Boris Schwarz claims that Jacobsen was born in New York in 1897 and that his manager tried to turn him into a “Russian fiddler” for publicity purposes. In the 1940s he served as concertmaster of the Los Angeles Philharmonic. He was the teacher of Zvi Zeitlin. Here is a 1913 recording of Jacobsen performing Handel.
And now here is the Gershwins’ humorous snapshot of early twentieth century violin history:

Blackboard Wars: OWN TV Series Debuts March 2nd
by Trevor Kimball, January 31, 2013
OWN has announced the launch of their new non-scripted TV series, Blackboard Wars, that follows the transformation of a high school in New Orleans. It will premiere on Saturday, March 2nd and run for six episodes.
Here’s the press release:
NEW ORIGINAL DOCU-SERIES “BLACKBOARD WARS” PREMIERES SATURDAY, MARCH 2 ON OWN: OPRAH WINFREY NETWORK
Los Angeles – OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network’s new original docu-series “Blackboard Wars,” depicting the dramatic transformation of New Orleans’ John McDonogh High School, premieres Saturday, March 2 at 9 p.m. ET/PT with six weekly one-hour episodes.
“Blackboard Wars” centers on a high school tarnished by failing academic performance and stigmatized by a culture of violence. Granted unprecedented access, cameras go behind the scenes to follow education maverick Steve Barr and no-nonsense principal Dr. Marvin Thompson as they embark together on an unpredictable mission to reinvent and revive the struggling school.
In January 2012, the New Orleans state-run Recovery School District announced the selection of charter organization Future is Now Schools: New Orleans (FIN: NOLA) to operate a Type 5 Charter of John McDonogh High School starting with the 2012-13 school year. FIN CEO Steve Barr, who had previously overseen the transition of Locke High School in the Watts neighborhood of Los Angeles, hired a new staff led by principal Dr. Marvin Thompson. Together, the new John McDonogh staff lay out clear expectations for student behavior and daily attendance while working to create a safe environment for students as they foster school pride and unity.
Throughout the series, viewers will witness the daily challenges the staff face as their students struggle with a range of emotionally demanding obstacles including homelessness, violence, drug use and teenage pregnancy. Tensions mount as teachers struggle to earn the trust of the students amidst intense scrutiny from the community. The staffmust pull together as they strive to establish the new vision for the high school and provide a better future for their students.

Wonderful show. I work in education and it’s terrific to see the struggles portrayed from all the different angles-teachers (especially new teachers), administration, students, parents and community. If Charter schools are going to be the future then this appears to be an honest look at the process of development. Thanks-
Laura Cannon
Looking forward to this series!

One Millennium Challenge Account Makes Big Vows
Recently, the Millennium Challenge Account-Philippines vowed to complete anti-poverty projects funded by the U.S. Government’s Millennium Challenge Corporation. The MCA-P marked May 2016 as the new deadline for project completion.
The announcement of this new goal came just one month after an important meeting in Washington D.C. In May, the social welfare and development secretary for the Philippines and CEO of the Millennium Challenge Corporation met at the MCC headquarters to publicly reaffirm their “strong partnership.”
During the meeting, Secretary Corazon Juliano-Soliman praised the partnership for strengthening the country’s democratization process. She acclaimed the MCC’s support of the Philippine Government’s community-driven development approach. This approach has encouraged ordinary citizens to become more civically engaged.
Soliman went on to praise MCC’s support of the Comprehensive and Integrated Delivery of Social Services program in the Philippines. She explained that it is one of the Department of Social Welfare and Development’s three core social protection programs working to alleviate poverty.
The $434 million First Philippine Compact was originally implemented on May 25, 2011. Its mission is to allow poor communities to develop small-scale projects and manage assets sustainably, reduce transportation costs and increase the efficiency of revenue collection through the computerization of business processes.
In response to a Commission on Audit report that reproached the DSWD for its slow utilization of the $434 million grant, Marivic Anonuevo, MCA-P Managing Director and CEO, assured anti-poverty project completion by the scheduled end of the Compact: May 2016. She attempted to calm the nerves of American skeptics.
Anonuevo stressed that the MCA-P has returned a total of P600 million in unused government funds that were previously allocated for anti-poverty projects. She said that MCA-P management is optimistic that the funds will be fully utilized in the anti-poverty projects by the end of the Compact and also vowed to return unused funds.
She has responded to accusations of inadequacy, neglect and foul play by stating, “Strict MCC guidelines make it impossible to divert funds to other purposes. Everything that we have done has been to help uplift the lives of Filipinos through economic growth.”
Anonuevo pointed out that the MCA-P has completed 2,180 community-driven development programs benefiting approximately half a million households spread out across six regions in the Philippines as of May 2015. Over the next year, the agency will work to bring that number up as quickly and dramatically as possible.
Only time will tell if the agency will be able to fulfill its commitment to maximize anti-poverty efforts. In spite of recent allegations against the DSWD, the U.S.-Filipino partnership seems to still be going strong. Now that the agency has restated their anti-poverty commitment, we can rest easy knowing that we share the same goal.

Heritage/ Evolution: PRISM Quartet with Chris Potter and Ravi Coltrane at the Painted Bride
Hailed by Chamber Music Magazine for “pioneering achievements of the highest order,” the PRISM Quartet presents the next installment of Heritage/Evolution, a groundbreaking project featuring world premieres of new works composed and performed by today’s most inventive jazz saxophonists. This time around, Heritage/Evolution spotlights PRISM with saxophone luminaries Chris Potter and Ravi Coltrane. The program follows PRISM’s January 2015 CD release of Heritage/Evolution, Volume 1 on Innova Recordings with guest saxophonists Steve Lehman, Dave Liebman, Rudresh Mahanthappa, Greg Osby, Tim Ries, and Miguel Zenón.
Since the saxophone’s invention by the Belgian instrument maker Adolphe Sax in 1840, it has captured the imaginations of artists and audiences worldwide. The Heritage/Evolution project charts fresh musical territory, drawing on the saxophone’s cross-cultural heritage to blend jazz with everything from Western and South Indian classical music to Romani and Latin American folkloric music. Join us for an unprecedented saxophone summit as PRISM, a “bold ensemble that set the standard for contemporary-classical saxophone quartets” (The New York Times) partners with two master artists who defy convention.
Chris Potter on his new commission. “My piece, Improvisations, was conceived as exactly that: I improvised five short pieces on tenor saxophone, transcribed what I played, then orchestrated the music for saxophone ensemble. In this way I sought to hold on to the immediacy and unexpected quality of improvised music, created in a moment’s time, while also giving myself leeway to use the rich array of harmonic and orchestrational possibilities afforded by the more traditional compositional process. It has been said that improvisation is composition speeded up and composition is improvisation slowed way down (the musical decision making process differs only in the rate of speed), and I wanted to blur those lines even further with this piece.”
Ravi Coltrane on his new commission: “At every moment, we are drawing on these two traditions, reconciling and hybridizing elements of African and Western European music. Still, there is always room to turn the paradigm on its side. My music-making these days grows out of a deep interest in psychology, especially temperament of and between players… My work will also explore the many facets of counterpoint—the idea of strange bedfellows (classical and jazz saxophonists) being in constant dance, but maintaining a fierce independence.”
Chris Potter is a world-class soloist, accomplished composer and formidable bandleader. The youngest musician ever to win Denmark’s Jazzpar Prize, he was named Tenor Saxophonist of the Year 2013 by the Jazz Journalists Association. DownBeat called him “One of the most studied (and copied) saxophonists on the planet.” His compositions draw on a vast range of music, demonstrating what Bill Milkowski called “a penchant for risk-taking and genre-bending.” Potter’s discography includes 15 albums as a leader and sideman appearances on over 100 albums. He was nominated for a Grammy Award for his solo work on “In Vogue,” a track from Joanne Brackeen’s album Pink Elephant Magic, and was prominently featured on Steely Dan’s Grammy-winning album, Two Against Nature. He has performed or recorded with many of the leading names in jazz, such as Herbie Hancock, Dave Holland, John Scofield, the Mingus Big Band, Jim Hall, Paul Motian, Dave Douglas, and Ray Brown.
Ravi Coltrane
Ravi Coltrane is a critically acclaimed Grammy nominated saxophonist, bandleader, and composer. The son of John and Alice Coltrane, Ravi Coltrane firmly established himself as a forward-thinking jazz musician with a strong musical identity influenced by, but set apart from, his father’s legacy. In the course of a twenty plus year career, Ravi has released six albums as a leader. His latest, Spirit Fiction, was released in June of 2012 for the Blue Note label. It was described by AllAboutJazz.com as a “new level of compositional and improvisational excellence…a complete, seamless musical statement.” Additional credits include performances as well as recordings with Elvin Jones,Terence Blanchard, Kenny Baron, Steve Coleman, McCoy Tyner, Jack DeJohnette, Matt Garrison, Jeff “Tain” Watts, Geri Allen, Joanne Brackeem, and The Blue Note 7. He is a co-leader of the Saxophone Summit with Joe Lovano and Dave Liebman, and founder of the independent record label, RKM.
PRISM Quartet: Intriguing programs of great beauty and breadth have distinguished the PRISM Quartet as one of America’s foremost chamber ensembles. Two-time winners of the Chamber Music America/ASCAP Award for Adventurous Programming, PRISM has been presented by Carnegie Hall, the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, and as soloists with the Detroit Symphony and Cleveland Orchestra. Champions of new music, PRISM has commissioned over 200 works, many by internationally celebrated Pulitzer Prize-winning composers. PRISM’s discography includes fourteen recordings for the Albany, Innova, Koch, Naxos, New Dynamic, and New Focus labels. PRISM may also be heard on the soundtrack of the film Two Plus One and has been featured in the theme music to the weekly PBS news magazine “NOW.” PRISM performs exclusively on Selmer saxophones and mouthpieces.

Professor Howie M. Choset
Howie M. Choset, Ph.D. is Associate Professor of Robotics at Carnegie Mellon University.
Motivated by applications in confined spaces, Howie has created a comprehensive program in snake robots, which has led to basic research in mechanism design, path planning, motion planning, and estimation. These research topics are important because once the robot is built (design), it must decide where to go (path planning), determine how to get there (motion planning), and use feedback to close the loop (estimation). By pursuing the fundamentals, this research program has made contributions to coverage tasks, dynamic climbing, and mapping large spaces.
Already, Howie has directly applied this body of work to challenging and strategically significant problems in diverse areas such as surgery, manufacturing, infrastructure inspection, and search and rescue. He directs the Undergraduate Robotics Minor at Carnegie Mellon and teaches an overview course on Robotics which uses series of custom developed Lego Labs to complement the course work.
His students have won best paper awards at the RIA in 1999 and ICRA in 2003, he has been nominated for best papers at ICRA in 1997 and IROS in 2003 and 2007, won best paper at IEEE Bio Rob in 2006, and won best video at ICRA 2010. In 2002 the MIT Technology Review elected him as one of its top 100 innovators in the world under 35.

PACIFIC: Silicon Chips and Surfboards, Coral Reefs and Atom Bombs
Monday, November 23, 2015 | 5:30 PM EST - 7:00 PM EST
Covington & Burling LLP |, New York, NY
Politicians and scholars alike have dubbed the twenty-first century “The Pacific Century” to reflect the profound shift in global power toward the Asia-Pacific. Even though it is the largest body of water on the planet, through which the majority of global trade passes, the history of the Pacific Ocean remains largely unknown to Westerners. In PACIFIC: Silicon Chips and Surfboards, Coral Reefs and Atom Bombs, Brutal Dictators, Fading Empires, and the Coming Collision of the World’s Superpowers, Simon Winchester offers a detailed history of the Pacific from the atomic age to today. In addition, Mr. Winchester explores how expanded resource exploitation, continued environmental degradation, and the rise of China will affect the Pacific region. Simon Winchester discussed his book at a National Committee event on November 23, 2015, in New York City.
Simon Winchester, author, journalist, and broadcaster, has worked as a foreign correspondent for most of his career, although he graduated from Oxford in 1966 with a degree in geology and spent a year working as a geologist in the Ruwenzori Mountains in western Uganda, and on oil rigs in the North Sea, before taking his first newspaper job in 1967.
His journalistic work, mainly for The Guardian and The Sunday Times, has based him in Belfast, Washington, D.C., New Delhi, and New York, London, and Hong Kong, where he covered such stories as the Ulster crisis, the creation of Bangladesh, the fall of President Marcos, the Watergate affair, the Jonestown Massacre, and the assassination of Egypt’s President Sadat. He has been a freelance writer since 1987.
He now principally concentrates on writing books, although he contributes to a number of American and British magazines, newspapers, and journals, including Harper’s, The Smithsonian, The National Geographic Magazine, The Spectator, Granta, The New York Times and The Atlantic Monthly. He was appointed Asia-Pacific editor of Conde Nast Traveler at its inception in 1987, later becoming editor-at-large. His writings have won him several awards, including Britain’s Journalist of the Year.
His books cover a wide range of subjects, including a study of the remaining British Empire, the colonial architecture of India, the American Midwest, his experience of months in an Argentine prison on spying charges, his description of a six-month walk through the Korean peninsula. His more recent books include The Man Who Loved China, which detailed the life of Joseph Needham, ATLANTIC: A Vast Ocean of a Million Stories, a biography of the Atlantic Ocean, The Alice Behind Wonderland, a biography on Alice Lidell, and The Men Who United the States: America’s Explorers, Inventors, Eccentrics and Mavericks, and the Creation of One Nation, Indivisible.
Mr. Winchester was made Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) by HM The Queen in 2006. He received the honor in a ceremony at Buckingham Palace. Simon Winchester lives in western Massachusetts.

Evo Morales Biography
(President of Bolivia)
Born In: Orinoca Canton
Evo Morales is the current President of Bolivia, a post he has been holding since 2006. Born to impoverished indigenous parents in the remote mountainous part of his nation, young Evo learned the value of work by assisting his family in farming and herding to earn a living. After a devastating storm, his family migrated to a coca growing region. An avid sports fan, he learned the skills of leadership while captaining his team and worked equally well as a union organizer. After leading his fellow coca growers on a series of protests and strikes, Evo was persuaded to pursue a political path and was soon elected to the national congress. Despite strong opposition from powerful enemies abroad and domestic resistance to his cause, Morales won the ultimate contest and was swept into power as the country's first indigenous president. After radically reorienting his government, he has led his country on an independent and strongly autonomous path, preferring to spend budgetary windfalls on causes related to social justice over military hardware. Although he has repeatedly clashed with foreign powers, he managed to maintain his hold on the office of president. After winning a recent election, Morales is firmly positioned to guide his country for the foreseeable future.

Juan Evo Morales Ayma was born on October 26, 1959 in Isallawi, Bolivia. Both of his parents were ethnic Aymara natives who worked as subsistence farmers in Orinoca Canton.
Evo's father, Dionisio Morales Choque, and his mother, Maria Ayma, had seven children but only three survived past childhood: Evo, his sister Esther and his brother Hugo.
As a child, his favorite past-time was soccer. But he had little time for sports as he worked on his family's farm, planting crops and herding llamas.
Although his family spoke the Aymara language at home, he quickly learned Spanish while attending elementary school in Argentina. He completed his high school studies in Orinoco, Bolivia.
In 1974, Morales attended the ‘Agrarian Technical Institute of Orinoco’ but dropped out before his final year.
A year later, his parents sent him to study in Ororu and he graduated in 1977.
In 1977, after graduation he moved to Chapare Province to begin his mandatory service in the military. The following year, he began touring all over Bolivia, working as a journeyman laborer and bricklayer. He also earned money as a trumpet player, touring with the ‘Royal Imperial Band’.
In 1979, he joined his family in Cochabamba where he learned to grow local crops, including coca. The same year, he joined the trade union for coca growers and was appointed to the position of ‘Secretary of Sports’ there.
In 1982, he was promoted to General Secretary of his region's union syndicate. A year later, Morales and other coca growers were offered $2,500 by the United States government for each acre of coca that they eradicated. Morales refused the payout and began organizing fellow coca growers to resist the offer.
In 1989, he gave a commemorative speech on the anniversary of the ‘Villa Tunari Massacre’. The following day, government agents assaulted him, abandoning him in a remote mountain pass to die.
In 1994, he was arrested by the Bolivian government and brutally beaten while in custody. The next day, thousands of his supporters marched on the jail and he was released soon afterwards.
In 1995, he was arrested again and charged with fomenting a coup. Several of his alleged co-conspirators were badly tortured while in custody but ultimately no one was formally charged in the case. The same year, Morales's union formed a political party, the ‘Assembly for the Sovereignty of Peoples’ (ASP).
In 1996, Bolivia's ‘National Election Court’ ruled the ASP ineligible to stand for elections. The ASP then worked out a vote sharing agreement with a coalition of leftist parties.
In the 1997 elections, he was elected to represent the El Chapare region in the ‘National Congress’.
In 1998, factional infighting led to a schism in the ASP. Morales parted ways to form his own party, the ‘Movement for Socialism’ (MAS).
In 2001, Jorge Quiroga succeeded to the presidency of Bolivia. The United States pressured Quiroga to have him expelled from Congress.
After 140 deputies voted against him, Morales was expelled from the Congress in 2002 for allegedly having used inflammatory language that led to the death of two police officers in a shootout in his home region.
In late 2005, he defeated Jorge Quiroga in the presidential election. Assuming office the following year, he radically re-organized the government, increasing taxation on gas extraction and building large scale programs to combat illiteracy, sexism, poverty and racism.
In 2008, he won a nationwide vote of confidence that he himself initiated, to measure the level of his public support.
In 2009, UNESCO declared that Bolivia was freed of illiteracy. The same year, he was re-elected as president of Bolivia.

Tag: Eight Families
The Federal Reserve Cartel: Part III: The Roundtable & The Illuminati
Source: TheRedPillGuide
Part 1 -The Federal Reserve Cartel – The Eight Families
Part 2 – The Federal Reserve Cartel – The Freemason BUS & The House Of Rothschild
[Excerpted from Chapter 19: The Eight Families: Big Oil & Their Bankers in the Persian Gulf…]
According to former British intelligence agent John Coleman’s book, The Committee of 300, the Rothschilds exert political control through the secretive Business Roundtable, which they created in 1909 with the help of Lord Alfred Milner and South African industrialist Cecil Rhodes.
The Rhodes Scholarship is granted by Oxford University, while oil industry propagandist Cambridge Energy Research Associates operates out of the Rhodes-supported Cambridge University.
Rhodes founded De Beers and Standard Chartered Bank. According to Gary Allen’s expose, The Rockefeller Files, Milner financed the Russian Bolsheviks on Rothschild’s behalf, with help from Jacob Schiff and Max Warburg.
In 1917 British Foreign Secretary Arthur Balfour penned a letter to Zionist Second Lord Lionel Walter Rothschild in which he expressed support for a Jewish homeland on Palestinian-controlled lands in the Middle East. [1]
The Balfour Declaration justified the brutal seizure of Palestinian lands for the post-WWII establishment of Israel. Israel would serve, not as some high-minded “Jewish homeland”, but as lynchpin in Rothschild/Eight Families control over the world’s oil supply.
Baron Edmond de Rothschild built the first oil pipeline from the Red Sea to the Mediterranean to bring BP Iranian oil to Israel. He founded Israeli General Bank and Paz Oil. He is considered by many the father of modern Israel. [2]
Roundtable inner Circle of Initiates included Lord Milner, Cecil Rhodes, Arthur Balfour, Albert Grey and Lord Nathan Rothschild. The Roundtable takes its name from the legendary knight of King Arthur, whose tale of the Holy Grail is paramount to the Illuminati notion of Sangreal or holy blood.
John Coleman writes in The Committee of 300, “Round Tablers armed with immense wealth from gold, diamond and drug monopolies fanned out throughout the world to take control of fiscal and monetary policies and political leadership in all countries where they operated.”
While Cecil Rhodes and the Oppenheimers went to South Africa, the Kuhn Loebs were off to re-colonize America. Rudyard Kipling was sent to India. The Schiffs and Warburgs manhandled Russia. The Rothschilds, Lazards and Israel Moses Seifs pushed into the Middle East. In Princeton, New Jersey the Round Table founded the Institute for Advanced Study (IAS) as partner to its All Souls College at Oxford. IAS was funded by the Rockefeller’s General Education Board. IAS members Robert Oppenheimer, Neils Bohr and Albert Einstein created the atomic bomb. [3]
In 1919 Rothschild’s Business Roundtable spawned the Royal Institute of International Affairs (RIIA) in London. The RIIA soon sponsored sister organizations around the globe, including the US Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), the Asian Institute of Pacific Relations, the Canadian Institute of International Affairs, the Brussels-based Institute des Relations Internationales, the Danish Foreign Policy Society, the Indian Council of World Affairs and the Australian Institute of International Affairs. Other affiliates popped up in France, Turkey, Italy, Yugoslavia and Greece. [4]
The RIIA is a registered charity of the Queen and, according to its annual reports, is funded largely by the Four Horsemen. Former British Foreign Secretary and Kissinger Associates co-founder Lord Carrington was President of both the RIIA and the Bilderbergers.
The inner circle at RIIA is dominated by Knights of St. John Jerusalem, Knights of Malta, Knights Templar and 33rd Degree Scottish Rite Freemasons. The Knights of St. John were founded in 1070 and answer directly to the British House of Windsor. Their leading bloodline is the Villiers dynasty, which the Hong Kong Matheson family married into. The Lytton family also married into the Villiers gang. [5]
Colonel Edward Bulwer-Lytton led the English Rosicrucian secret society, which Shakespeare opaquely referred to as Rosencranz, while the Freemasons took the role of Guildenstern. Lytton was spiritual father of both the RIIA and Nazi fascism. In 1871 he penned a novel titled, Vril: The Power of the Coming Race.
Seventy years later the Vril Society received ample mention in Adolf Hitler’s Mein Kampf. Lytton’s son became Viceroy to India in 1876 just before opium production spiked in that country. Lytton’s good friend Rudyard Kipling worked under Lord Beaverbrook as Propaganda Minister, alongside Sir Charles Hambro of the Hambros banking dynasty. [6]
James Bruce, ancestor to Scottish Rite Freemason founder Sir Robert the Bruce, was the 8th Earl of Elgin. He supervised the Caribbean slave trade as Jamaican Governor General from 1842-1846. He was Britain’s Ambassador to China during the Second Opium War.
His brother Frederick was Colonial Secretary of Hong Kong during both Opium Wars. Both were prominent Freemasons. British Lord Palmerston, who ran the Opium Wars, was a blood relative of the Bruce monarchy, as was his Foreign Secretary John Russell, grandfather of Bertrand Russell. [7]
Children of the Roundtable elite are members of a Dionysian cult known as Children of the Sun. Initiates include Aldous Huxley, T. S. Eliot, D. H. Lawrence and H. G. Wells. Wells headed British intelligence during WWI. His books speak of a “one-world brain” and “a police of the mind”. William Butler Yeats, another Sun member, was a pal of Aleister Crowley.
The two formed an Isis Cult based on a Madam Blavatsky manuscript, which called on the British aristocracy to organize itself into an Isis Aryan priesthood. Most prominent writers of English literature came from the ranks of the Roundtable. All promoted Empire expansion, however subtly. Blavatsky’s Theosophical Society and Bulwer-Lytton’s Rosicrucians joined forces to form the Thule Society out of which the Nazis emerged. [8]
Aleister Crowley formed the British parallel to the Thule Society, the Isis-Urania Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn. He tutored LSD guru Aldus Huxley, who arrived in the US in 1952, the same year the CIA launched its MK-ULTRA mind control program with help from the Warburg-owned Swiss Sandoz Laboratories and Rockefeller cousin Allen Dulles- OSS Station Chief in Berne.
Dulles received information from the Muslim Brotherhood House of Saudi regarding the creation of mind-controlled Assassins. Dulles’ assistant was James Warburg. [9]
The Atlantic Union (AU) was an RIIA affiliate founded by Cecil Rhodes- who dreamed of returning the US to the British Crown. In 1939 AU set up its first offices in America in space donated by Nelson Rockefeller at 10 E 40th St in New York City. Every year from 1949-1976 an AU resolution was floored in Congress calling for a repeal of the Declaration of Independence and a “new world order”.
Another RIIA affiliate was United World Federalists (UWF)- founded by Norman Cousins and Dulles assistant James P. Warburg. UWF’s motto was “One world or none”. Its first president Cord Meyer stepped down to take a key position in Allen Dulles’ CIA. Meyer articulated UWF’s goal, “Once having joined the One-World Federated Government, no nation could secede or revolt…with the atom bomb in its possession the Federal Government would blow that nation off the face of the earth.” [10]
In 1950 James Warburg, whose elders Max and Paul sat on the board of Nazi business combine IG Farben, testified before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, “We shall have world government whether or not you like it- by conquest or consent.” The AU and UAF are close to the CFR and the Trilateral Commission (TC)- founded by David Rockefeller and Zbigniew Brzezinski in 1974. [11]
The TC published The Triangle Papers which extended the “special relationship between the US and Western Europe” to include Japan, which was fast becoming creditor to the rest of the world. Former Federal Reserve Chairman Paul Volcker was TC Chairman. TC/CFR insider Harvard Professor Samuel Huntington, who most recently has argued for a “Clash of Civilizations” between the West and the Muslim world, wrote in the TC publication Crisis in Democracy, “…a government which lacks authority will have little ability short of cataclysmic crisis to impose on its people the sacrifices which may be necessary.” [12]
The Illuminati
The Illuminati serves as ruling council to all secret societies. Its roots go back to the Guardians of Light in Atlantis, the Brotherhood of the Snake in Sumeria, the Afghan Roshaniya, the Egyptian Mystery Schools and the Genoese families who bankrolled the Roman Empire.
British Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli, who “handled” mafia-founder and 33rd Degree Mason Guiseppe Mazzini, alluded to the Illuminati in a speech before the House of Commons in 1856 warning, “There is in Italy a power which we seldom mention. I mean the secret societies. Europe…is covered with a network of secret societies just as the surfaces of the earth are covered with a network of railroads.”[13]
The Illuminati is to these secret societies what the Bank of International Settlements is to the Eight Families central bankers. And their constituencies are exactly the same.
The forerunners of the Freemasons -the Knights Templar- founded the concept of banking and created a bond market as a means to control European nobles through war debts. By the 13th century the Templars had used their looted Crusades gold to buy 9,000 castles throughout Europe and ran an empire stretching from Copenhagen to Damascus.
They founded modern banking techniques and legitimized usury via interest payments. Templars’ bank branches popped up everywhere, backed by their ill-gotten gold. They charged up to 60% interest on loans, launched the concept of trust accounts and introduced a credit card system for Holy Land pilgrims.
They acted as tax collectors, though themselves exempted by Roman authorities, and built the great cathedrals of Europe, having also found instructions regarding secret building techniques alongside the gold they pilfered beneath Solomon’s Temple. The stained glass used in the cathedrals resulted from a secret Gothic technique known by few. One who had perfected this art was Omar Khayvam, a good friend of Assassin founder Hasan bin Sabah. [14]
The Templars controlled a huge fleet of ships and their own naval fleet based at the French Atlantic Port of La Rochelle. They were especially cozy with the royals of England. They purchased the island of Cyprus from Richard the Lion Heart, but were later overrun by the Turks.
On Friday October 13, 1307 King Philip IV of France joined forces with Pope Clement V and began rounding up Templars on charges ranging from necromancy to the use of black magic. Friday the 13th would from that day forward carry negative connotations. “Sion” is believed to be a transliteration of Zion, itself a transliteration for the ancient Hebrew name Jerusalem.
The Priory of Sion came into public view in July 1956. A 1981 notice in the French press listed 121 dignitaries as Priory members. All were bankers, royalty or members of the international political jet set. Pierre Plantard was listed as Grand Master.
Plantard is a direct descendent, through King Dagobert II, of the Merovingan Kings. Plantard, who owns property in the Rennes-le-Chateau area of southern France where the Priory of Sion is based, has stated that the order has in its possession lost treasure recovered from beneath Solomon’s Temple and that it will be returned to Israel when the time is right.
He also stated that in the near future monarchy would be restored to France and other nations. The Templars claim to possess secret knowledge that Jesus Christ married Mary Magdalene, fathered children to launch the Merovingan bloodline and was the son of Joseph of Arimathea. [15]
Joseph was the son of King Solomon. Solomon’s Temple is the model for Masonic Temples, which occur without fail in every town of any size in America. It was a place of ill repute where fornicating, drunkenness and human sacrifice were the norm. Accorder to British researcher David Icke, it’s location on Jerusalem’s Mount Moriah may have also been an Anunnaki flight control center.
The Annunaki are the reptilian/aliens revealed by the Sumerian clay tablets- the oldest written accounts of humankind known. The Crusader Knights Templar looted their huge store of gold and numerous sacred artifacts from beneath the Temple. King Solomon was the son of King David- who during his 1015 BC reign massacred thousands of people.
Icke calls King David “a butcher” and asserts that the king wrote a good chunk of the Bible. His son Solomon killed his own brother to become King. He advised Egyptian Pharaoh Shiskak I, marrying his daughter. Solomon studied at Akhenaton’s Egyptian Mystery Schools, where mind control was rampant.
The Grand Lodge of Cairo spawned a network of secret societies including Assassins, Cabalists, Freemasons and the Afghan Roshaniya. Those who pass through to the highest levels become Illuminati.
Icke claims the Canaanite Brotherhood was headed by the god/king Melchizedek, who may have been an Annunaki. The King focused on a Hebrew understanding of the Ancient Mysteries. The Order of Melchizedek became the secret society associated with the Cabala. King Solomon developed his vast wisdom studying the Sumerian Tables of Destiny which Abraham had possessed. Abraham may have also been of Anunnaki origin.
Both he and Melchizedek had been tutored by the Sumerian Brotherhood of the Snake, whose name may have something to do with the Biblical creation story, where Adam and Eve are tempted from a bountiful garden of Eden (a hunting and gathering existence?) into a world of “sin and servitude” by a snake.
When the Bible says that the first couple ate the forbidden fruit, could it mean that Eve was impregnated by the snake – an Annunaki serpent (the Nephilim of the Book of Genesis) – thus damning all Adamus to a life of toil under serpent king bloodline control?
The basis of the Sumerian Tables of Destiny which Abraham possessed became known as Ha Qabala, Hebrew for “light and knowledge”.
Those who understood these cryptic secrets, said to be encoded throughout the Old Testament, are referred to deferentially as Ram. The phrase is used in Celtic, Buddhist and Hindu spiritual circles as well. The Knights Templar brought Cabbalistic knowledge to Europe when they returned from their Middle East Crusade adventures. [16]
The Knights created the Prieure de Sion on Mt. Zion near Jerusalem in the 11th century to guard such holy relics as the Shroud of Turin, the Ark of the Covenant and the Hapsburg family’s Spear of Destiny- which was used to kill Jesus Christ. The Priory’s more important purpose was to guard Templar gold and to preserve the alleged bloodline of Jesus – the royalSangreal – which they believe is carried forth by the French Bourbon Merovingan family and the related Hapsburg monarchs of Spain and Austria. [17]
The French Lorraine dynasty, which descended from the Merovingans, married into the House of Hapsburg to acquire the throne of Austria.
The Hapsburgs ran the Holy Roman Empire until its dissolution in 1806, through King Charles V and others. The family traces its roots back to a Swiss estate known as Habichtburg, which was built in 1020. The Hapsburgs are an integral part of the Priory of Sion. Many researchers believe that Spain’s Hapsburg King Philip will be crowned Sangreal World King in Jerusalem. The Hapsburgs are related to the Rothschilds through Holy Roman Emperor Frederick Barbarossa’s second son Archibald II.
The Rothschilds- leaders in Cabala, Freemasonry and the Knights Templar- sit at the apex of the both the Illuminati and the Eight Families banking cartel. The family accumulated its vast wealth issuing war bonds to Black Nobility for centuries, including the British Windsors, the French Bourbons, the German von Thurn und Taxis, the Italian Savoys and the Austrian and Spanish Hapsburgs. The Eight Families have also intermarried with these royals.
Author David Icke believes the Rothschilds represent the head of the Anunnaki Serpent Kings, stating, “They (Rothschilds) had the crown heads of Europe in debt to them and this included the Black Nobility dynasty, the Hapsburgs, who ruled the Holy Roman Empire for 600 years. The Rothschilds also control the Bank of England. If there was a war, the Rothschilds were behind the scenes, creating conflict and funding both sides.”[18]
The Rothschilds and the Warburgs are main stockholders of the German Bundesbank. Rothschilds control Japan’s biggest banking house Nomura Securities via a tie-up between Edmund Rothschild and Tsunao Okumura. The Rothschilds are the richest and most powerful family in the world. They are also inbred. According to several family biographers, over half of the last generation of Rothschild progeny married within the family, presumably to preserve their Sangreal. [19]
The 1782 Great Seal of the United States is loaded with Illuminati symbolism. So is the reverse side of the US $1 Federal Reserve Note, which was designed by Freemasons. The pyramid on the left side represents those in Egypt- possibly space beacon/energy source to the Anunnaki- whose Pharaohs oversaw the building of the pyramids using slave labor.
The pyramid is an important symbol for the Illuminati bankers. They employ Triads, Trilaterals and Trinities to create a society ruled by an elite Sangreal few presiding over the masses- as represented by a pyramid. The Brotherhood of the Snake worshiped a Trinity of Isis, Osirus and Horus- who may have been Anunnaki offspring. The Brotherhood spread the concept of Trinity to Christian (Father, Son and Holy Spirit), Hindu (Brahma, Shiva and Krishna) and Buddhist (Buddha, Dharma and Sangha) faiths. [20]
The reptilian eye atop the pyramid depicted on the $1 bill is the all-seeing eye of the Afghan Roshaniya, known alternately as The Order and Order of the Quest- names adopted by Skull & Bones, Germanorden and the JASON Society. [21] Take a magnifying glass and look at the eye’s pupil. There is an image of an alien inside the pupil. I’m not kidding.
Novus Ordo Seclorum appears beneath the pyramid, while Annuit Coeptis appears above the all-seeing eye. Annuit Coeptis means “may he smile upon our endeavors (Great Work of Ages)”. Above the eagle on the right side of the note are the words E Pluribus Unum, Latin for “out of many one”. The eagle clutches 13 arrows and 13 olive branches, while 13 stars appear above the eagle’s head. America was founded with 13 colonies. Templar pirate Jaques deMolay was executed on Friday the 13th.
The numbers 3, 9, 13 and 33 are significant to the secret societies. 33rd-degree Freemasons are said to become Illuminati. According to the late researcher William Cooper, the Bilderberger Group has a powerful Policy Committee of 13 members. It is one of 3 committees of 13 which answered (until his recent death) to Prince Bernhard- member of the Hapsburg family and leader of the Black Nobility. The Bilderberg Policy Committee answers to a Rothschild Round Table of 9. [22]

SAU project series to focus on promoting peace and prosperity
By Anne Marie Amacher
The Catholic Messenger
DAVENPORT — Promoting peace and prosperity for the St. Ambrose University campus and the broader community is the goal of the school’s annual project series and reflected in its theme: Peace and Prosperity.
Duk Kim, the project’s coordinator and professor of political science/director of international studies, said the university is offering a number of programs throughout the 2022-23 school year. “In 2015, the 193 United Nations members adopted the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to promote peace and prosperity,” he said.
“The 17 SDGs are intimately linked; progress towards one goal depends on, and affects, other goals. They are also known as the global goals for peace and prosperity. The SDGs are to end poverty, fight inequality, address climate change, enhance health and well-being, protect the planet and promote a sustainable future for all by 2030.”
A variety of lectures, panel discussions, concerts, theater performances, film presentations, conferences and academic programs in a multidisciplinary nature will help the university community to become better advocates for building peace and prosperity, he said. “We strive to implement St. Ambrose University’s core mission values and guiding principles by increasing our awareness of and contributions to the campus, local, regional, national and global communities.”
“Connecting the Pieces: Dialogues on the Amache Archaeology collection,” was among the first offerings and was on display through last month. The university also held a sustainability fest Sept. 20 on the Wellness and Recreation Center lawn and Rogalski patio. Other offerings include a United Nation day of celebration, Ambrose Women Peace and Justice and a lecture on gardening and roundtables.
In addition to Kim, the planning team members are David Baker, KALA operations manager; Jim Baumann, professor of communication; Amy Blair, professor of biology; Nicky Gant, coordinator of service and justice, campus ministry; Jason Senjem, associate professor of management; Melissa Sharer, director of master of public health; Dennis Tarasi, assistant professor of biology; Megan Tarasi, director of professional development; and Brittany Tullis, associate dean of CAS and associate professor of Spanish and Latinx studies.

New Shenmue III Trailer Introduces Ryo’s World and Fighting Capabilities
by Ian Cooper August 21, 2019 August 21, 2019
Deep Silver and Ys Net revealed the official Shenmue III gamescom Trailer. The “A Day in Shenmue” Trailer gives a short glimpse into the detailed world of Shenmue III and the thrilling fighting system, which lets players fully control Ryo’s Kung Fu! Shenmue III will release on PlayStation 4 and PC November 19th, 2019.
Shenmue III is the eagerly anticipated sequel to Dreamcast classics Shenmue (1999) and Shenmue II (2001). The brainchild of award-winning game director, Yu Suzuki, Shenmue set out to combine action gameplay from his arcade classic Virtua Fighter with RPG mechanics to weave a long-form epic for home consoles. Commonly known as one of the most ambitious game projects in history, Shenmue captured the imagination of players from around the world with its unique setting, intimate and cinematic character-focused story, realistic battles, and fun mini-games. Many of the features pioneered in Shenmue are now commonplace in modern games, including open world and Quick Time Event gameplay. Shenmue III was officially announced on stage at Sony’s E3 2015 press conference and simultaneously launched on crowdfunding platform Kickstarter, breaking two Guinness World Records upon raising over $6 million dollars. The game is currently in development at Yu Suzuki’s independent company, Ys Net, located in Tokyo, along with many original Shenmue team members.
Shenmue III will release on November 19th, 2019.

The Day Freddie Mercury Performed His Last Queen Show

Freddie Mercury looked out at an adoring crowd of more than 120,000 people on Aug. 9, 1986 in Knebworth Park, England. Queen, had just finished its second encore, resulting in thunderous applause. “Goodnight and sweet dreams,” he said to a throng of fans.
They would be the last words uttered by Mercury during a Queen performance.
Queen was enjoying a glorious high. Their legendary performance at Live Aid in 1985 cemented Queen as one of rock’s greatest live acts. Next came 1986's Magic Tour, a 26-date trek that would take the group throughout Europe in support of the A Kind of Magic LP.
“At Knebworth … I somehow knew it was going to be the last show for all of us,” Queen’s longtime roadie Peter Hince said in his memoir, Queen Unseen: My Life with the Greatest Rock Band of the 20th Century. “I had no idea as to Fred’s health condition, but I just saw it as being the last show for me and for them.”
Mercury also seemed well aware of his growing age and declining health. During an argument with bassist John Deacon a week before the final show, Mercury reportedly said: “I’m not going to be doing this forever. This is probably my last time.” Though the band was used to outbursts from their emotional frontman, guitarist Brian May admitted this particular statement worried the group.
Watch Queen Perform 'Radio Ga Ga' at Knebworth
Status Quo, Big Country and Belouis Some were the supporting acts for the Knebworth show. Each band had earned a respectable fan base of its own, but it was clear the crowd assembled cared most passionately for the headliner. This fact was driven home as the audience erupted into cheers when Queen’s helicopter flew overhead and delivered the band backstage.
As the headlining set approached, the crowd began to stir. Their noise grew even louder when smoke began emanating from the stage. Amid a chorus of cheers, Queen appeared in the spotlight. The focal point was Mercury, with his regal attire much more extravagant than his peers'. The band began its set by immediately launching into a rousing rendition of “One Vision,” the 1985 single released after their Live Aid triumph.
From there, Queen proceeded to put together an emphatic performance, featuring many of their greatest hits. “Under Pressure,” “Another One Bites the Dust” and the operatic “Bohemian Rhapsody” were natural highlights, while the 1986 ballad “Who Wants to Live Forever” added something new to the band's repertoire.
All the while, Mercury delivered his trademark bombast. He memorably led the audience in a session of vocal exercises, singing “daaaaay-oh” to the crowd, much as he'd done at Live Aid.
Watch Queen Perform 'We Are the Champions' at Knebworth
The band closed their initial set with “Crazy Little Thing Called Love,” Queen's 1980 rockabilly chart-topper. After briefly disappearing, the group returned to the stage for an electrifying rendition of “Radio Ga Ga.”
The second and final encore brought the house down, as Queen let loose with powerful versions of “We Will Rock You,” “Friends Will Be Friends” and “We Are the Champions.” The last song was an emotional performance of “God Save the Queen,” their customary show closer.
Recordings from the Magic Tour were assembled into the Live Magic LP, which was released in December 1986. The live album was met with harsh criticism, due largely to the editing of songs.
Though they no longer toured, Queen and Mercury continued to record new music in the ensuing years, releasing The Miracle and Innuendo in 1989 and 1991, respectively. Mercury died on Nov. 24, 1991, however, after a long battle with AIDS.

CoreSite To Develop Expansive, High-Performance Data Center In Secaucus, New Jersey To Meet Growing Demand
New Data Center Campus, Powered by the CoreSite Mesh, Helps Network, Cloud, and IT Service Providers Directly Connect with Enterprise and Financial Services CustomersDENVER and SECAUCUS, N.J., Jan. 18, 2013 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ --CoreSite Realty Corporation (NYSE: COR), a provider of powerful, network-dense data center campuses and the CoreSite Mesh, which enables interconnected communities of service providers and enterprises, today announced the purchase and planned development of a new data center campus in Secaucus, New Jersey.
CoreSite is under contract to acquire a 280,000 square-foot building which will be referred to as NY2, on 10 acres of land in Secaucus, New Jersey. At full build-out, CoreSite expects NY2 will offer up to 18 critical megawatts of capacity. In addition to NY2, the land site will support additional data center development as market demand warrants.
CoreSite anticipates closing on the acquisition in early February, subject to customary closing conditions, beginning construction to convert the existing building to data center specifications in Q1, 2013, and delivering turn-key capacity in Q4, 2013. CoreSite expects to invest $65.0 million to acquire the facility, redevelop the powered shell, and complete the initial phase of inventory consisting of 65,000 square feet. Further, CoreSite anticipates continuing to invest in and scale the campus by constructing additional phases to meet customer demand.
"CoreSite's entry into Secaucus is an important step in the execution of our strategy to extend our U.S. platform supporting latency-sensitive customer applications in network-dense, cloud-enabled data center campuses," said Tom Ray, President and Chief Executive Officer, CoreSite. "Our New York campus is designed to meet performance-sensitive customer requirements supported by our location at the nexus of robust, protected, low-latency network rings serving Manhattan as well as global cable routes to Chicago, Frankfurt, London, and Brazil. Additionally, customers are able to connect directly to service nodes for Amazon Web Services Direct Connect."
Pre-commitments from key CoreSite service partners and preliminary interest shown by prospective customers in NY2 demonstrate the benefits CoreSite offers with the optimal combination of cost-effective capacity and power, diverse high-performance network connectivity, and interconnected communities. The result for CoreSite customers is the ability to propel growth and gain long-term competitive advantage. The availability of direct connections to high speed networks in NY2 is particularly interesting to financial firms looking to reduce latency and improve performance. Supporting this goal and reflecting the strength of the NY2 location and CoreSite's North American operating platform, three network service providers have pre-committed to serve NY2, consisting of CoreSite partners Sidera Networks, Zayo, and Seaborn Networks, each of which provides high-performance network support to the financial services, cloud and network communities.
"The new CoreSite data center in New Jersey fits perfectly with Sidera's growth strategy," said Clint Heiden, President, Sidera Networks. "This expansion gives CoreSite customers immediate access to over 40 financial exchanges and the Sidera Xtreme Ultra-Low Latency Network."
"We are pleased to bring Zayo's Bandwidth Infrastructure services, including Dark Fiber, Wavelengths, Ethernet and IP services, into CoreSite's new NY2 facility," said Glenn Russo, EVP of Corporate Strategy and Development, Zayo. "The Zayo and CoreSite relationship continues to expand connectivity for current and future customers of both companies."
"NY2 is an integral part of Seaborn Networks' plan for CoreSite to serve as turnkey backhaul provider for the U.S. landing of Seabras-1, our U.S.-Brazil submarine cable with a planned Ready For Service (RFS) date of Q1, 2015," said Larry Schwartz, CEO, Seaborn Networks. "This is the first step in CoreSite providing a full mesh backhaul and point of presence network for Seabras-1's U.S. landing."
CoreSite intends to ensure the availability of high-capacity and high-speed lit services as well as a robust dark-fiber tether between NY2 and CoreSite's NY1 location at 32 Avenue of the Americas in Manhattan, enabling CoreSite to provide seamless interconnection across its New York campus. The seamless connection between NY1 and NY2 will provide distributed direct-connect access to the CoreSite Mesh, creating one of the most comprehensive cloud communities in the greater New York area and immediately bringing together over 75 leading network service providers as well as public, private, and hybrid cloud providers.
Digital content providers will also benefit from CoreSite's reliable infrastructure and scalable campus that can support continued growth in media consumption. Furthermore, the network providers in the new NY2 location will enable low latency connectivity within and among the fastest routes available to the financial services community.
Following the launch of CoreSite's previously announced fifteenth data center, located in Reston, Virginia, the new Secaucus data center will be the sixteenth data center in CoreSite's national platform, which spans nine U.S. markets and includes more than 275 carriers and service providers and more than 15,000 interconnections.
CoreSite Realty Corporation (NYSE: COR) is the data center service provider chosen by more than 750 of the world's leading carriers and mobile operators, content and cloud providers, media and entertainment companies, and global enterprises to run their performance-sensitive applications and to connect and do business. CoreSite propels customer growth and long-term competitive advantage through the CoreSite Mesh by connecting the Internet, private networking, mobility, and cloud communities within and across its 14 high-performance data center campuses in nine markets in North America. With direct access to 275+ carriers and ISPs, over 180 leading cloud and IT service providers, intersite connectivity, and the nation's first Open Cloud Exchange that provides access to thousands of lit buildings and multiple key cloud on-ramps, CoreSite provides easy, efficient and valuable gateways to global business opportunities.

Pine Chant 01. Pine Chant 12:53
Hailed by The Australian as possessing a “rare gift as a melodist” and by Limelight as expressing “both exquisite delicacy and tremendous power”, Australian composer Lachlan Skipworth writes orchestral, chamber, vocal, and experimental music. His vivid musical language is coloured by three years spent in Japan where his immersion in the study of the shakuhachi bamboo flute inevitably became a part of his muse. Winning the prestigious Paul Lowin Prize for orchestral composition in 2016 established Skipworth’s reputation, and led to a string of major commissions and a stint as composer-in-residence with the West Australian Symphony Orchestra. Recent highlights include performances by Diana Doherty, Genevieve Lacey, the Detroit Symphony Orchestra, the Australian String Quartet, the Tokyo Philharmonic Chorus, and the Sydney Symphony Orchestra. Skipworth’s recordings continue to gather critical acclaim, including a five-star review for his debut album and an ARIA nomination for his second, as well as frequent radio play across Australia.
Sara Fraker is the Associate Professor of Oboe at the University of Arizona Fred Fox School of Music and a member of the Tucson Symphony Orchestra. She spends her summers in residence as a faculty artist at the Bay View Music Festival in northern Michigan. Sara is principal oboist of True Concord Voices & Orchestra and a featured soloist on their two recent album releases, one of which garnered two Grammy nominations.
Sara is currently engaged in a diverse array of creative projects. In 2021, she commissioned Australian composer Lachlan Skipworth to create Pine Chant, a piece for reed trio and electronics, inspired by tree-ring data and the climate crisis. The piece was premiered in December 2021 at the Laboratory for Tree-Ring Research at the University of Arizona, the largest facility of its kind. Sara also recently produced a world-premiere recording of the woodwind music of ultramodernist composer Johanna M. Beyer (1888-1944) for New World Records, with new print editions for Frog Peak Music. In March 2022, Sara premiered an exciting new commission for oboe and piano by composer S. Maggie Polk Olivo, entitled White Sand & Gray Sand.
Thrilled to recently join Buffet Crampon's roster of artists, Sara plays a Légende oboe.
Sara is the recipient of a 2017 Artist Research and Development Grant from the Arizona Commission on the Arts for a solo commissioning and recording project, in collaboration with composer Asha Srinivasan and plant ecologist Robin Wall Kimmerer. The resulting piece, Braiding, was featured on CBC Radio in 2020. An advocate for interdisciplinary creative work, she recently joined the affiliated faculty of UArizona’s Institutes for Resilience: Solutions for the Environment and Society (AIR).
With pianist Casey Robards, Sara released the album BOTANICA on MSR Classics in 2019. She has also recorded for Summit Records, Toccata Classics, Analekta, and Reference Recordings. She has presented recitals at six recent conferences of the International Double Reed Society, including Tokyo, Boulder, and New York City. Sara is oboist of the Arizona Wind Quintet, which enjoyed a residency at the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM) in Mexico City and has toured extensively through the Southwest. She has given masterclasses at universities and performing arts schools across the US and in Australia. Sara performed the Mozart Oboe Concerto with the Sierra Vista Symphony and Jennifer Higdon's Oboe Concerto with the UA Wind Ensemble.
Sara held the Gillet Fellowship at the Tanglewood Music Center and was a participant in the Tanglewood Bach Seminar. She has also performed at the Aspen Music Festival, Shenandoah Valley Bach Festival, Chautauqua, Spoleto Festival USA, and the prestigious Schleswig-Holstein Orchester Akademie in Germany. Sara has played with numerous orchestras, including the Phoenix Symphony, Arizona Opera, Broadway in Tucson, St. Andrews Bach Society, Tucson Pops, Illinois Symphony, Champaign-Urbana Symphony, Brockton Symphony, Newton Symphony, New Bedford Symphony, Gardner Chamber Orchestra, and Sinfonia da Camera.
Raised in New Haven, Connecticut, Sara is a graduate of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (DMA), New England Conservatory (MM), and Swarthmore College (BA). She was a National Merit Scholar and recipient of the Garrigues Scholarship, Peter Gram Swing Prize, and Kate Neal Kinley Memorial Fellowship. Her principal teachers include Robert Botti, John Dee, Mark McEwen, Jonathan Blumenfeld, Sandra Gerster Lisicki, and John de Lancie. Her doctoral thesis, The Oboe Works of Isang Yun, explores twenty solo and chamber pieces by the Korean composer, with a focus on tonal language and relationships to East Asian philosophy.
Hailed for her “robust playing and virtuosic performance” (San Diego Tribune) and “beautiful and clear tone” (The Clarinet Magazine), Jackie Glazier is an active soloist, chamber musician, orchestral clarinetist, pedagogue, and advocate of new music. As Assistant Professor of clarinet at the University of Arizona Fred Fox School of Music, Glazier is a committed pedagogue and mentor to future generations of clarinetists, and a member of the Arizona Wind Quintet. As a soloist and chamber musician, she has performed throughout the United States and in China, Mexico, France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, Croatia, and Carnegie Hall’s Weill Recital Hall.
As a soloist and a founding member of the saxophone/clarinet ensemble Duo Entre-Nous, Glazier is active in commissioning and performing new music. She has commissioned and premiered over 20 pieces with composers from the United States, Canada, France, Italy, Argentina, China, and Australia. Duo Entre-Nous has performed internationally and is featured on the album, “Lights and Shadows, Waves and Time,” which was recently released on Parma Records. They are currently working on their debut album, featuring works they have commissioned, set to release on Equilibrium Label in Spring 2021.
As a soloist and chamber musician, Glazier has recorded for Naxos, Toccata Classics, Mark Records, and Navona Records. Her debut solo album, “Magic Forest Scenes” was released in the summer of 2020 on Centaur Records, and contains the music of William Alwyn, Arnold Bax, Eugene Bozza, Paul Richards, Alexander Rosenblatt, and Piotr Szewczyk.
Glazier performed regularly with the Orlando Philharmonic as principal, second, and e-flat clarinet from 2011-2016. She also served as principal clarinet of the Ocala Symphony, where she served from 2012-2016. Currently, she performs with the Tucson Symphony and is the principal clarinet of the Grammy Award-nominated True Concord Voices Orchestra. Orchestral collaborations include many internationally renowned artists such as Renée Fleming, Joshua Bell, and Yefim Bronfman. Jackie was the first-prize winner of the International Clarinet Association Orchestral Competition at ClarinetFest 2014.
An active clinician and educator, Jackie has presented guest master classes at major universities throughout the United States. She has earned degrees from Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music, the University of Florida, and Florida State University.

Recording Engineer: Wiley Ross (https://studio.music.arizona.edu)
Scored for reed trio and electronics, Pine Chant draws music from the rhythms of annual tree growth, based on a set of data shared with me by the Laboratory of Tree-Ring Research at the University of Arizona in Tucson. The work also reflects my own lived experience amidst the current climate uncertainty, as heard in the deep sadness pervading the work’s underlying harmonic cycles. Lachlan Skipworth. See:

MITRE Appoints Eliahu Niewood Vice President of Joint and Cross-Cutting Capabilities
McLean, Va., and Bedford, Mass., Feb. 3, 2020–MITRE has named Eliahu H. Niewood vice president of joint and cross-cutting capabilities. In this new role, Niewood leads coordination and collaboration across MITRE’s national security portfolios to shape major cross-functional and joint/multi-agency initiatives that address significant national security challenges.
Niewood will also work closely with MITRE’s Center for Technology and National Security to build internal wargaming, table-top exercises, and concept of operations (CONOPs) capabilities. He will continue to focus on developing talent and increasing mission value.
"Eli brings outstanding domain expertise and strategic vision to this new leadership position," said Jason Providakes, MITRE president and CEO. "He's worked tirelessly to develop, implement, and track the impact of cross-cutting programs. Eli also built a new analysis team, expanding its work across national security to space control, and air and missile defense."
Niewood joined MITRE in 2017, bringing rich experience in systems analysis and tactical systems technologies. He has directed work in developing a new generation of command and control technology for the Department of Defense (DoD). He also led MITRE’s efforts in helping the national security community use emerging technologies, such as artificial intelligence, to solve critical mission problems. Niewood has served as technical director for the Cross-cutting Urgent Innovation Cell, where he revamped the DoD-funded National Security Engineering Center’s analysis capabilities in ways that will provide lasting benefits.
Previously, Niewood was a technical adviser to the director of the U.S. Air Force Rapid Capabilities Office. He also served as head of the Engineering Division at the MIT Lincoln Laboratory, where he led a staff of nearly 400 and oversaw mechanical, aerospace, and control systems engineers building space payloads and aircraft sensor systems.
From 2011-2014, Niewood served as chair of the Air Force Scientific Advisory Board, a Federal Advisory Committee comprised of 50 national experts in science and technology fields. He also served as a member of the Defense Science Board Task Force on unexploded ordnance.
Niewood holds bachelor's, master's and doctoral degrees, all in aeronautics and astronautics, from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Utah Education Network (UEN) Recognizes Local Mentors through National American Graduate Initiative
"Stories of Champions" project celebrates the value of mentorship in workforce education.
Utah Education Network
Oct 12, 2017, 17:40 ET
SALT LAKE CITY, Oct. 12, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- The Utah Education Network (UEN) today announces the recognition of fourteen American Graduate Champions who help Utah learners reach academic and professional milestones. Nominated by peers in the education community, these Champions inspire and guide others to serve as mentors for students preparing to enter the workforce. Tonight, they will be the guests of honor at The UtahFutures Celebrates Stories of Champions Dinner, a gathering of more than 80 participants from K–12 education, the Utah System of Technical Colleges, the Utah System of Higher Education, public media and industry.
"As Utah's public media network for education, UEN is thrilled to bring attention to these inspirational mentors and the people they serve," said Jenn Gibbs, Utah American Graduate project manager. "UEN initiatives like Utah American Graduate and UtahFutures, the comprehensive education and career planning resource, are strongly aligned with Utah's commitment to workforce development through education and career pathways. We're happy to be doing our part to amplify local conversations around this work."
Hosted by UEN in partnership with KUED, KBYU, KUER and Utah's Hogle Zoo, the UtahFutures Celebrates Stories of Champions Dinner takes place from 6:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. tonight at Utah's Hogle Zoo. The project is funded by a generous grant from WNET and is a part of American Graduate: Let's Make It Happen, a national public media initiative to raise awareness around education issues. The dinner coincides with similar events across the nation leading up to American Graduate Day, an annual television event which has reached more than 83% of all U.S. households on more than 100 public television stations. The 2017 broadcast, hosted by Soledad O'Brien and featuring guests such as General and Mrs. Colin Powell, will focus on efforts to address the "middle skills gap"—the difference between the increasing number of jobs that require specialized training and the number of workers qualified to fill them. A UEN-produced video profile of Canyons School District's Kathryn Blunt will be included in the national broadcast and is available for streaming and download here: http://www.uen.org/americangraduate/videos.shtml.
Broadcast on public media stations across the United States, the national American Graduate Day program will air in Utah on UEN-TV from noon to 4 p.m. MST on October 14. For more information visit UEN-TV's broadcast schedule at http://www.uen.org/tv/whatson/.

How lifetime emissions of different energy sources stack up
Rocket Solar analyzed data from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory to see how greenhouse gas emissions differ among energy sources throughout their life cycle.
Posted Tuesday, February 28, 2023 1:30 pm

After six decades of experiments, scientists from the National Ignition Facility at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in California announced an energy breakthrough in December 2022: a nuclear fusion reactor had produced more energy than was used to run it.
With nuclear fusion still years—and billions of dollars—away from being scalable, the current landscape of short-term clean energy production hasn't changed. Today, energy sector investments and research are mostly directed toward optimizing existing energy production methods, and reducing the carbon footprint they leave behind.
To determine the carbon footprint of these current energy sources, researchers conduct a life-cycle assessment, a quantitative analysis of the environmental aspects of a product or process. Life-cycle assessments determine how much greenhouse gas emissions a source of energy produces throughout its life span, from "cradle to grave."
Rocket Solar analyzed data from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory to see how greenhouse gas emissions differ among energy sources throughout their life cycle. NREL performed a systematic review of approximately 3,000 published life-cycle assessment studies to quantify a consistent metric for comparing different energy technologies.
To compare the various kinds of energy sources, data metrics from these studies were compared by measuring greenhouse gas emissions produced from processes including resource extraction; construction and delivery; operation and maintenance; and disposal and recycling. Each energy source was ranked by the amount of CO2 equivalent grams used through its entire life cycle.
Renewable energy sources don't generate emissions during their 'ongoing combustion' phase
In the energy industry, there are four generalized life-cycle phases of greenhouse gas emission generation, though some may widely differ from one technology to another. The life cycle starts with the upstream phase, which is when extraction begins for all materials needed to assemble the machinery and infrastructure required to produce the energy.
The second phase is production, which is the activation and management of a fuel source such as wind, water, or heat. After these fuel sources are activated and begin creating energy, it enters the third phase, which is called combustion. The downstream phase comes last, which is the disposal or recycling of all material used throughout the life-cycle process.
The carbon emission output during each stage can vary greatly depending on the type of energy. For example, fuel combustion during the third life-cycle stage emits the majority of greenhouse gases from fossil-fueled technologies. Meanwhile, emissions from nuclear and renewable energy processes occur more during the upstream stage—the first phase when initial materials are extracted.
The metric used to quantify the environmental footprint of a product or process is CO2 equivalent (CO2e). This is a measurement that bundles several greenhouse gases (not only carbon dioxide) to be represented as a single number. When comparing the C02 equivalent of the 10 most common energy sources, the data shows that emissions from renewable electricity generation are lower than those from fossil fuels. Read on to learn more about how these 10 types of energy rank by the total carbon emissions, and which phase of their life cycle emits the most.
#1. Wind (renewable)

- Total life cycle emissions: 13.0 grams CO2 equivalent per kilowatt-hour
--- One-time upstream: 12.0 grams
--- Ongoing combustion: Not applicable
--- Ongoing noncombustion: 0.74 grams
--- One-time downstream: 0.34 grams
Harnessing the wind, an inexhaustible resource, to produce energy requires the installation of dozens of towers and turbines either on land or offshore. The giant structures have become part of the countryside and marine landscapes in recent years, causing either indifference or discontent among rural and coastal populations. It's a fact that wind farms produce clean energy; nonetheless, the extraction of the materials for the structures (steel, fiberglass, resin, plastic, iron, copper, and aluminum), and the energy used to build them, are the least environmentally friendly phase of the life cycle of this type of power production.
#2. Nuclear (nonrenewable)

--- One-time upstream: 2.0 grams
--- Ongoing noncombustion: 12 grams
--- One-time downstream: 0.7 grams
Thanks to nuclear power, the United States avoided over 471 million metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions in 2020, according to the Nuclear Energy Institute. Nuclear fission power is a constant and reliable energy source with relatively low production costs. Despite certain high-profile disasters such as Chernobyl and Fukushima, nuclear power is considered highly safe. The concerns surrounding its operation process arise over the use of uranium—a highly radioactive nonrenewable resource—that must be meticulously handled and disposed.
#3. Hydropower (renewable)

--- Ongoing noncombustion: 1.9 grams
--- One-time downstream: 0.004 grams
Unlike other types of renewable and clean energy, hydropower provides a stable and constant source of electricity. The power it produces does not depend on rain but rather on the rainwater previously stored in reservoirs. To build dams and hydraulic energy stations, the natural course of rivers is modified, harming the ecosystems of freshwater fauna and the land it originally irrigated. A sizable investment and considerable amounts of time are required to build the facilities. Once in service, the energy produced is cheap and reliable, provided a natural disaster does not interfere with the process.
#4. Concentrating solar power (renewable)
--- Ongoing noncombustion: 10.0 grams
Converting sunlight into electrical energy has attracted some of the most interest as researchers and investors have focused attention on this sector in recent decades. The least-polluting method of converting sunlight is concentrating solar power. Although the process emits some greenhouse gases in its operational phase, it generates twice as much in the upstream stage. Manufacturing reflective plates and energy storage capsules require finite materials. In addition, solar farms use up large tracts of land, changing its conditions and affecting the endemic and temporary flora and fauna of the area.
#5. Geothermal (renewable)

Although geothermal energy is permanent, renewable, and clean, extracting it from the inner layers of the planet is not easy. For starters, the initial investment in implementing excavation processes and building geothermal power plants is elevated, and they must be built close to natural underground energy sources. The power produced cannot be transported as petroleum or natural gas can be. The excavation procedures, which vary and are ongoing from season to season, can contaminate water sources with dust, oils, and fuels.
#6. Photovoltaic (renewable)

--- Ongoing noncombustion: ~ 10.0 grams
--- One-time downstream: ~ 5.0 grams
Photovoltaic energy is the most-used source of solar power. It has progressively become more affordable, increasing its adoption in urban, industrial, and rural areas. It is usually combined with other energy sources to increase its efficiency and storage capacity. The materials used in the production of photovoltaic panels are nonrenewable. Despite this, the carbon footprint of photovoltaic power is considerably lower than fossil fuel-powered electricity. When they reach about the third year of use, most solar panels become emission neutral.
#7. Biomass (renewable)

--- One-time upstream: Not reported
--- Ongoing noncombustion: Not reported
--- One-time downstream: Not reported
Up until the mid-1800s and the introduction of alternative means of energy, biomass was the main source of energy consumption in the U.S. It remains a relevant form of fuel used for heating and cooking in many developing countries. Biomass is an organic, renewable material derived from living sources, such as animals or plants. It can be produced with wood or wood waste; crops or agricultural waste; biogenic materials, such as cotton, wool, or paper; and animal manure or human sewage. Direct combustion is the most widely used method for converting biomass into energy. The fuels are burned directly to heat water, which generates electricity in steam turbines.
#8. Natural gas (nonrenewable)

- Total life cycle emissions: 486.0 grams CO2 equivalent per kilowatt-hour
--- Ongoing combustion: 389.0 grams
The combustion of natural gas is one of the most polluting energy sources, and yet it is a cleaner option than oil and coal. It is abundant, especially in the U.S., with enough to last approximately 98 years as of 2020. Natural gas is easy and cheap to find and transport, therefore emitting very low greenhouse gas in its upstream phase. Natural gas emits half the CO2e of coal; therefore it has been proposed as a "bridge fuel" to support solar, wind, and other clean energies in the process of eventually phasing out the use of fossil fuels.
#9. Oil (nonrenewable)

--- Ongoing combustion: Not reported
To put numbers into perspective, oil-powered energy produces nearly twice the amount of CO2e per kilowatt-hour as natural gas and 40 times more than hydropower or concentrating solar power. Also, it is nonrenewable. Nevertheless, the consequences of petroleum extraction is the direct impact on the health and quality of life of communities living in areas near drilling facilities, particularly in countries with negligent oversight on oil corporations.
#10. Coal (nonrenewable)
- Total life cycle emissions: 1001.0 grams CO2 equivalent per kilowatt-hour
--- One-time upstream: less than 5.0 grams
--- Ongoing combustion: 1010.0 grams
--- One-time downstream: < 5.0 grams
Coal mining and coal combustion are the main sources of CO2e related to electricity generation. The effects of methane gas produced by coal mining reach beyond Earth's atmosphere. Air pollution from coal-powered energy plants is blamed for heart and lung diseases, neurological problems, asthma, and cancer, among other severe ailments. The chemical reaction caused by the contact of water and rocks containing sulfur-bearing minerals in mines pollutes bodies of fresh water with heavy metals like copper, lead, and mercury. As a result, tracts of land used for grazing, crops, forests, and wildlife habitats become contaminated and thus not suitable for animal or human life.

The Beths’ Warm Blood is a strong contender for the catchiest record you’ve never heard. Formed when four jazz students at the University of Auckland bonded over their shared love of the pop-punk sounds of their youth, The Beths bring new energy to the genre. This 5-song debut EP, a deliriously pleasurable statement of purpose, comes crammed with enough blissful hooks to carry through most bands’ careers.
Listeners for whom the tag “New Zealand indie rock” brings to mind the Flying Nun sound of bands like The Clean and The Chills may be surprised to find Warm Blood’s five unstoppable tunes landing closer to artists like Slant 6 and The Breeders. The nimble guitar work here moves from heavy riffing reminiscent of Sleater-Kinney to hazily bending lines that would make Stephen Malkmus and Mary Timony beam, while the joyous vocal harmonies from all four members bubble and swell to ecstatic crescendos that channel The Zombies’ Odessey and Oracle.
With impeccable production from guitarist Jonathan Pearce and stellar musicianship across the board, Warm Blood is a non-stop delight. Tracks like leadoff track and first single “Whatever,” the ridiculously addictive standout “Idea/Intent,” and “Rush Hour 3,” a playful ode to romance in this era of download-and-chill franchise films, take delight in the challenge of breathing new energy into the limitations of the 3-minute pop song.
The Beths are now poised to take the U.S. and Europe by storm with their first western-hemisphere tour. This U.S. re-release of Warm Blood (released in New Zealand in 2016) offers a perfectly distilled introduction to a band that has become a live favorite Down Under.
The Beths is a band from Auckland, New Zealand composed of vocalist/guitarist Elizabeth Stokes, guitarist Jonathan Pearce, bassist Benjamin Sinclair, and drummer Tristan Deck. Stokes, Pearce, and Sinclair started playing music together when they were in high school, while Deck met them through the local music scene and joined the band in 2019.
The four-piece’s breakout debut Future Me Hates Me was released via Carpark Records in 2018 to international acclaim, hailed by Pitchfork as “one of the most impressive indie-rock debuts of the year.” The next year, The Beths were nominated for five Vodafone New Zealand Music Awards, winning Best Group and Best Alternative Artist. A slew of international touring ensued, with shows supporting Pixies, Death Cab for Cutie and The Breeders; appearances at major international festivals including Primavera Sound, The Great Escape, End of the Road, SXSW, Pickathon and more; and headline tours across North America, the United Kingdom, Europe and Australia. That catapult from working day jobs and playing music in New Zealand into the international spotlight was the catalyst for their second record, Jump Rope Gazers, which chronicles the bizarre leap when touring becomes your full-time job and the unexpected homesickness that comes with success. The record was released in July 2020 to widespread praise, with Rolling Stone calling Jump Rope Gazers “Beatles-level melodic smarts”, The Line of Best Fit naming it an “overwhelmingly thrilling record” and Phoebe Bridgers even told Charli XCX in an interview that “[‘Jump Rope Gazers’] fills me with unbridled joy.“ The album saw The Beths win Album of the Year, Best Group and Best Alternative Artist at New Zealand’s Aotearoa Music Awards later that year.
The Beths spent the rest of 2020 and most of 2021 at home, hosting several live streams for fans and working on new material during the height of the pandemic. They also released Auckland, New Zealand, 2020, the band’s live album and full-length concert film. It was recorded at Auckland Town Hall in November 2020, at a time when New Zealand was one of the few countries where live music was still possible: a small miracle captured on tape and film. In early 2022, The Beths released a standalone single, “A Real Thing,” their first studio release since Jump Rope Gazers.
The Beths’ third and best album, Expert In A Dying Field, will be released on September 16, 2022 via Carpark Records. Its 12 songs explore the same noisy, cerebral indie-rock-meets-power pop of earlier records, but imbued with an electric shock of new confidence: a record meant to be experienced live.

The Center for Bioenergy Innovation has been renewed by the Department of Energy as one of four bioenergy research centers across the nation to advance robust, economical production of plant-based fuels and chemicals. CBI, led by Oak Ridge National Laboratory, is focused on the development of nonfood biomass crops and specialty processes for the production of sustainable jet fuel to help decarbonize the aviation sector.
The DOE announcement provides $590 million to the centers over the next five years. Initial funding for the four centers will total $110 million for Fiscal Year 2023. Outyear funding will total up to $120 million per year over the following four years, contingent on availability of funds.
“To meet our future energy needs, we will need versatile renewables like bioenergy as a low-carbon fuel for some parts of our transportation sector,” said U.S. Secretary of Energy Jennifer M. Granholm. “Continuing to fund the important scientific work conducted at our Bioenergy Research Centers is critical to ensuring these sustainable resources can be an efficient and affordable part of our clean energy future.”
The Center for Bioenergy Innovation’s Leadership Team at Oak Ridge National Laboratory will oversee the center’s operations as it develops bioenergy-relevant plants and microbes for sustainable jet fuel.

CBI’s national laboratory, university and industry partners will take a multipronged, accelerated approach over the next five years to producing sustainable jet fuel. Focus areas include:
Developing perennial crops that require less water and fertilizer and yield high amounts of biomass with the desired qualities for conversion to bioproducts.
Refining an efficient, cost-effective consolidated bioprocessing and co-treatment process using custom microbes to break down plants and ferment intermediate chemicals.
Advancing the extraction of lignin from plants and chemically converting it into aviation fuel.
Improving the chemical catalyst-based upgrading of intermediate bioproducts into jet fuel that can be blended with conventional fuel to significantly reduce aircraft carbon emissions.
CBI intends to reach Tier 1 validation of its jet biofuel, an aviation industry standard that determines the fuel’s properties are fit-for-purpose in existing and future airplane fleets. The development of renewable fuels is a key strategy to reduce carbon dioxide emissions from commercial aircraft.
“Our researchers are excited to apply the best of biology and chemistry and create sustainable jet fuel to help clean up our skies and stimulate a thriving bioeconomy,” said ORNL’s Jerry Tuskan, CBI chief executive officer. “CBI’s feedstocks-to-fuels process will support upgrading carbohydrates and lignin from corn stover, process-advantaged switchgrass and poplar biomass into a tunable portfolio of chemicals for jet biofuel.”
The new centers follow the success of pioneering bioenergy research centers established by DOE’s Office of Biological and Environmental Research within DOE’s Office of Science in 2007.
The ORNL-led CBI and its predecessor, the BioEnergy Science Center, demonstrated significant scientific breakthroughs in their mission to design ideal biomass feedstock crops and microbes to overcome the natural resistance of plants to being broken down and converted into fuels and products. In the last five years, CBI authored or co-authored 449 peer-reviewed journal articles that were cited 12,295 times by the scientific community. In the same period CBI generated 57 invention disclosures, 32 patent applications, four license/option agreements and one start-up. The center has also reached more than 310,000 students, parents and teachers as a result of its educational outreach programs.
“CBI’s collaborative science model and foundational success are key to accelerating the innovation needed for widespread, sustainable and profitable production of jet fuel from lignocellulosic feedstocks,” said Stan Wullschleger, ORNL associate laboratory director for Biological and Environmental Systems Science.
“CBI builds on 15 years of success in applying scientific breakthroughs to meet the nation’s energy and decarbonization challenge,” said interim ORNL Director Jeff Smith. “CBI represents the national laboratory system at its best—developing scientific solutions to benefit the nation and inspiring the next generation of scientists through unique educational outreach.”
Current partners in the next generation of CBI with ORNL include the University of Georgia; National Renewable Energy Laboratory; Dartmouth College; University of Maryland Eastern Shore; Brookhaven National Laboratory; Massachusetts Institute of Technology; Poplar Innovations Inc.; Pennsylvania State University; University of California, Davis; University of California San Diego; University of Tennessee; University of Wisconsin–Madison; University of Virginia; Washington State University; and France’s National Research Institute for Agriculture, Food and Environment.
UT-Battelle manages ORNL for DOE’s Office of Science. The Office of Science is the single largest supporter of basic research in the physical sciences in the United States and is working to address some of the most pressing challenges of our time.

Prologis Phoenix Project Moves Forward
Image via PxHere
Prologis has, once again, big development plans for Goodyear, Ariz., and recently received the local authorities’ support. The Goodyear city council approved the designation of the 113-acre Prologis 303 Business Park as a magnet site within the Greater Maricopa County Foreign-Trade Zone, which would translate in a 72 percent reduction in real property and equipment tax, among other benefits.
The inclusion brings Goodyear’s FTZ sites to a total of 770 acres, or roughly 11.7 percent of the city’s total area for industrial development. Exempt from U.S. Customs rules and regulations, these sites serve as means to attract companies and spur economic development. A Nestle USA development site was recently included in a Foreign-Trade Zone pertaining to the city of Glendale, Ariz.
The future Prologis 303 Business Park
At full build-out, the industrial campus will comprise two buildings totaling some 1.6 million square feet. The warehouses will feature a total of 330 dock-high doors and more than 720 trailer parking stalls. A JLL team is spearheading leasing efforts at the property.
Located on the southwest corner of Cotton Lane and Camelback Road, the site is just west of the Loop 303, next to the PV303 industrial campus. Corporate neighbors include Macy’s, UPS, Dick’s Sporting Goods, Ball, REI and Michael Lewis Co., among others.
Prologis’ existing industrial campus
During the same council meeting, the authorities signed a development agreement for Prologis Commerce Park at Goodyear, the firm’s first industrial campus in Goodyear. The document stated that the city will reimburse up to $1 million to Prologis for the infrastructure improvements the company made in the area. The city’s support for the Prologis 303 Business Park’s inclusion in a Foreign-Trade Zone was one of the agreement’s stipulations.
The 112-acre Prologis Commerce Park at Goodyear is at the intersection of Yuma Road and Bullard Avenue, just north of Phoenix Goodyear Airport. The master-planned park comprises more than 1.7 million square feet across four industrial buildings. Its largest component, an 855,000-square-foot warehouse completed in 2020, is fully leased by Amazon, according to CommercialEdge data.
A good year for Goodyear
Goodyear has been a magnet for developers and investors in the last 12 months, as more and more companies have decided to establish a footprint in the area. Notable names include FedEx, HelloFresh and Meyer Burger.
The city welcomed both medium- and large-size industrial projects. In September, Lincoln Property Co. and Harvard Investments acquired one of the last remaining large industrial-zoned land parcels in the area, spanning 585 acres. Upon completion, Goodyear AirPark could comprise as much as 7 million square feet of industrial space across 20 buildings.
According to a recent CommercialEdge report, greater Phoenix had more than 41 million square feet of industrial space underway as of April. In mid-May, Goodyear’s developments amounted to some 6.6 million square feet, with an additional 11 million in planned and prospective projects, the same data provider shows.

LAUSD Project Delivered Ahead of Schedule
McCarthy and Xcel Mechanical Systems recently completed construction of LAUSD’s new $96.7 million South Region High School No. 2, located at 6100 South Central Avenue in Los Angeles.
The school was designed by Leo A Daly of Los Angeles. McCarthy served as general contractor for the project. Xcel Mechanical Systems was hired as the project’s mechanical contractor. The project entailed construction of a 220,000-square-foot high school on a 16.1 acre site with capacity for up to 2,000 students. The new school consists of eight two-and three-level buildings with 75 classrooms, an administrative office, performing arts/multi-purpose/practice gym, cafeteria and food services area, media center/library, a gym and locker rooms. The school also features an outdoor lunch shelter and athletic facilities including football and softball fields and a track and field venue with a new rubberized synthetic track surface.
The nine buildings are strategically positioned to provide a rectangular perimeter barrier around a centrally located courtyard/student gathering area. The high school is sectioned into four small learning communities, each self-contained with classrooms and laboratory facilities in each building. The athletic, library and performing arts facilities are shared among the four communities. Each classroom has state-of-the-art A/V equipment and the ADA-compliant science labs feature built-in casework, fume hoods, chemical resistant countertops, sinks, gas, power and high speed data connections. All buildings are type II steel construction with the exterior skin comprised of plaster, CMU veneer and metal panels.
Xcel Mechanical used BIM (Building Information Modeling) technology to assist in the building process for the new high school. Xcel teams used AutoDesk NavisWorks project review software to create 3D models of the high school’s mechanical systems before construction began. The use of 3D modeling proved highly successful in helping visualize and resolve systems clashes in the areas that required extensive detailing such as the central plant, the underground utilities, small mechanical closets and restrooms.
“This close team collaboration allowed the project to stay ahead of schedule and complete nearly two months early,” said Senior Project Manager Andrew Raufi.
Certified by the Collaborative for High Performing Schools (CHPS), the new South Regional High School boasts numerous environmentally friendly elements. Some of the project’s sustainable features include: energy efficient direct/indirect lighting with automatic lighting controls; low flow lavatories; low VOC paint; high energy efficient air conditioning; operable windows; a white roof to reflect unwanted energy and reduce the amount of energy consumed and drought tolerant landscaping. Construction waste was also recycled.

Lithium-Ion Battery Anode Market Size Trends Outlook Oveview 2022-2029
DataM Intelligence
The Lithium-Ion Battery Anode Market is estimated to reach at a high CAGR during the forecast period (2022-2029).
LITHIUM-ION BATTERY ANODE MARKET DYNAMICS AND TRENDS
The rising adoption of electric vehicles mainly drives the demand for lithium-ion battery anodes. Lithium-ion battery fire hazards are a key factor in limiting the market’s growth.
Growing global adoption of electric vehicles
Climate consciousness has been increasing among consumers and governments in recent years. A major global effort is underway to decarbonize transportation to avoid the most catastrophic effects of global warming and man-made climate change. Many governments pledged net-zero carbon emission targets for the middle of the century at the COP26 climate conference in Glasgow in November 2021. It will almost certainly hasten the adoption of carbon-free mobility solutions such as electric vehicles.

Electric vehicles are zero-emission without any sacrifice in automotive performance. Leading automotive manufacturers are currently researching increasing vehicle range, battery energy density, and reducing charging times. The increasing innovations in this sector are likely to lead to the growing adoption of electric vehicles. The rising adoption of electric vehicles is a key driver of the growth of the global lithium-ion battery anode market.
Fire hazards of lithium-ion batteries
Lithium-ion batteries are a safety hazard since they contain flammable electrolytes that can become damaged quickly. A lithium-ion battery charged too quickly can cause a short circuit, which leads to explosions and fire. A lithium-ion battery fire can be started due to poor cooling, electrical short circuits, mechanical penetration, and aging. Due to these risks, testing standards are more stringent than those for lead-acid batteries, requiring a broader range of test conditions and additional specific tests. Safety regulators also impose shipping limitations. Notably, the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 smartphone was recalled due to battery explosions and fires.
Lithium-ion batteries use a flammable liquid as an electrolyte. A faulty battery, therefore, can cause a serious fire. Faulty chargers affect the safety of the battery since they can destroy the battery’s integrity protection circuit. Short-circuiting a lithium-ion battery causes the cell to overheat and catch fire. Smoke from thermal overheating in a lithium-ion battery is both flammable and toxic.
A lithium-ion battery that is damaged, mechanically penetrated, or subjected to a high electrical load without overcharge protection can trigger fire and explosion. The Boeing 787, one of the first commercial aircraft to use lithium-ion batteries, experienced many fire incidents due to battery malfunction. Similarly, a UPS airline cargo flight crashed in Dubai due to the combustion of its cargo load of lithium-ion batteries. The fire hazard of lithium-ion batteries is one of the key challenges to the market’s growth.
COVID-19 IMPACT ON LITHIUM-ION BATTERY ANODE MARKET GROWTH
The lithium-ion battery industry experienced sharp declines in production and sales in 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Lithium-ion battery manufacturing operations were hampered by lockdowns and movement restrictions instituted by governments to curb the spread of the pandemic. Battery production resumed at a limited capacity after the lockdowns were lifted in late 2021. Battery production is expected to reach pre-pandemic levels by the end of 2021.
Lithium-ion battery anode is manufactured using a range of different materials. The supply chain and logistical problems caused by the pandemic have made it difficult to source various materials. It has lowered the production of lithium-ion batteries, although it is expected to be only transitory. The pandemic will not impact the long-term growth of the lithium-ion battery anode market since the demand for electric vehicles and consumer electronics remains strong and will continue to grow significantly in the coming years.
LITHIUM-ION BATTERY ANODE MARKET SEGMENT AND SHARES ANALYSIS
The global lithium-ion battery anodes market is segmented into material, battery product, end-user, and region. The lithium-ion battery anode market is further segmented into natural graphite, artificial graphite, silicon, lithium compounds, and anode binders based on material.
Natural graphite is leading in this segmentation, as it is the most widely used material for lithium-ion battery anode. Due to optimal qualities such as structural stability, low electrochemical reactivity, conditions for storing many lithium ions, and low cost, graphite is the material that is considered most suitable to be used for the anode.

Former Shreveport Times editor named LSU student newspaper advisor
BATON ROUGE – Longtime newspaper editor and journalist Jeff Gauger will join LSU’s Office of Student Media as advisor to LSU’s student newspaper, The Reveille, in May.

Gauger spent 25 years as a newsroom manager and journalist for numerous newspapers across the country before joining LSU’s Office of Student Media. He most recently served as North Louisiana executive editor and market lead for the USA Today Network’s The Times in Shreveport and executive editor of The News-Star in Monroe, La. Prior to his time in Shreveport, Gauger worked as editor and publisher of the News & Record in Greensboro, N.C.; group executive editor, executive editor and managing editor for Gatehouse newspapers in Ohio and Illinois; and assistant managing editor, metro editor and reporter for the Omaha World-Herald. He also served as an adjunct journalism professor for several years at the University of Nebraska at Omaha.
As a journalist, Gauger covered national defense and nuclear forces, corruption, courts, legislation, agriculture, crime, sports and more. As a newsroom leader, he drove enterprise projects on race and diversity, investigations on the theft of taxpayer money, and internet crimes. He also led the growth of digital platforms, and he oversaw the launch of digital platforms, including news apps.
Gauger earned his Master of Science in Journalism from Northwestern University and his Bachelor of Arts in History from the University of Puget Sound.
“We look forward to welcoming Jeff to The Reveille. We think his strong leadership skills, his record of innovation and his history of coaching and collaborating with working journalists will help usher The Reveille into a new season of strong reporting and audience growth,” Martin Johnson, dean of LSU’s Manship School, said.

Cinema Made in Italy 2020 | 4 – 9 March 2020
Author: Meredith Taylor
The focus is on women in this decade long celebration of Italian cinema that takes place from 4 – 9 March at Cine Lumiere in London. A rich and eclectic mix of the most recent films come under the spotlight including Liliana Cavani’s cult classic thriller The Night Porter (1974) starring Charlotte Rampling and Dirk Bogarde.
The six day event opens on 4 March with Ginevra Elkann’s playful comedy If Only (2019) that won critical acclaim at last year’s Locarno Film Festival. Also to look forward to is Guido Lombardi’s road movie Volare that sees a young boy reconnected with his father returning from prison and Igor Tuveri’s stylish crime drama 5 is the Perfect Number starring Tony Servillo as a hitman in 1970s Naples.
IF ONLY (Magari) | Director: Ginevra Elkann | Cast: Riccardo Scamarcio, Alba Rohrwacher, Milo Roussel, Ettore Giustiniani, Oro De Commarque, Céline Sallette, Benjamin Baroche, Brett Gelman, Luigi Catani | 100 mins
Alma, Jean and Sebastiano are three tight-knit siblings who live with their mother in Paris. One day they are packed off to Italy to spend the rest of the school holiday with their unconventional and completely broke father, Carlo(Riccardo Scamarcio), who they haven’t seen for two years. Instead of taking them on the skiing trip they had been promised, Carlo whisks them off to a rundown coastal cottage. They are joined by his bohemian co-writer and lover Benedetta (Alba Rohrwacher), and what ensues is a shambolic Christmas package to remember, complete with a first crush, acts of teenage rebellion, but also tender moments of reconciliation. This semi-autobiographical film by accomplished producer and first-time feature director Ginevra Elkann received critical acclaim when it opened the Piazza Grande section at last year’s Locarno International Film Festival.
Ginevra Elkann studied film directing at the London Film School. She began her film career as assistant director on Bernardo Bertolucci’s Besieged and was also a video assistant on Anthony Minghella’s The Talented Mr. Ripley. She is an accomplished producer and distributor (respectively, at Italian companies Asmara Films and Good Films). Her production credits include Abdellatif Kechiche’s Mektoub, My Love (Canto uno), Noaz Deshe’s White Shadow and Babak Jalali’s Frontier Blues. Since 2006 she has been President of the ‘Pinacoteca Giovanni e Marella Agnelli’ art gallery in Turin.
FLESH OUT (Il corpo della sposa) | Dir: Michela Occhipinti | Cast: Verida Beitta Ahmed Deiche, Amal Saad Bouh Oumar, Aminetou Souleimane, Sidi Mohamed Chinghaly | 95 mins
Living in Mauritania, working in a beauty salon and addicted to social media, Verida (Verida Beitta Ahmed Deiche) is a modern girl. However, before getting married in three months’ time she needs to undergo ‘gavage’, or force-feeding, so that she gains a substantial amount of weight to become voluptuous, and thus an ideal model of beauty and wealth. This means that her mother will ensure that she eats and drinks as much as ten times a day. As the weeks of this trial go by and the impending wedding approaches, Verida starts to question her life and her country’s traditions. Michela Occhipinti’s emotionally rich film is a sympathetic portrait of a woman awakening to misogynistic conditioning disguised as cultural convention. The film screened in the Panorama section at last year’s Berlinale.
Born in 1968, Michela Occhipinti spent her childhood in Rome, Hong Kong, Geneva and Morocco. In 2003 she spent a year in Argentina and made her first documentary film Give Us Back the Constitution (¡Viva la Pepa!), about the country’s social situation. From 2005 – 2007 she worked with the Italian channel RAI 2 to direct several reports on immigration issues. Her other documentary films include Sei Uno Nero, about the prevention of HIV and malaria in Malawi, and the feature-length documentary Lettere dal deserto (Elogio della lentezza), which was shown at over 80 festivals around the world.
SIMPLE WOMEN | Dir:Chiara Malta | Cast: Jasmine Trinca, Elina Löwensohn, Francesco Acquaroli, Anna Malvica, Mirella Mazzeranghi, Betti Pedrazzi, Paolo Graziosi, Thomas Bradley, Michael Rodgers, Cosmina Olariu, Ozana Oancea, Roberta Zanardo, Gea Dell’Orto, Elisa Liberatori | 85 mins
Since childhood, the Italian film director Federica (Jasmine Trinca) has been passionate about cinema. One film in particular has always played an important role: Hal Hartley’s Simple Men, starring the Romanian actress Elina Löwensohn. A chance encounter with her icon offers Federica the opportunity to make a film about her life. However, the real Elina Löwensohn is very different to the one in Federica’s imagination, and soon the true characters of both the actor and the director start to be revealed.
Paris-based director Chiara Malta has written and directed numerous short films in which she mixes various forms of narration, including documentary and animation. Her feature-length documentary Armando and Politics opened the 2008 Turin Film Festival. Simple Women is her debut feature-length fiction film and had its world premiere at the 2019 Toronto International Film Festival, where it opened the Discovery section.
THE NIGHT PORTER (Il portiere di notte) Dir: Liliana Cavani | Cast: Dirk Bogarde, Charlotte Rampling, Philippe Leroy | 118 mins
Set in Vienna in 1957, a secret Nazi organisation meets periodically and ‘eliminates’ dangerous witnesses to their cruel actions during WW II. Max (Dirk Bogarde), a former SS officer, is a night porter in an elegant hotel. When Lucia (Charlotte Rampling) enters the lobby with her husband, she recognises the man who was both her torturer and protector when she was a concentration camp inmate. They eventually find a way to be alone together and replay their concentration camp scenes, thus revisiting a sadomasochistic relationship and exploring a reversal of roles. Operatic and bold, Liliana Cavani’s 1974 provocative psychological thriller deftly examines the lasting social and psychological effects of the Nazi regime.
Liliana Cavani was born in Carpi in 1933. After graduating in literature and philology at Bologna University she studied documentary filmmaking at Rome’s renowned ‘Centro Sperimentale di Cinematografia’. She is a director and screenwriter who belongs to a generation of Italian filmmakers from Emilia-Romagna who came into prominence in the 1970s, and included Bernardo Bertolucci, Pier Paolo Pasolini and Marco Bellocchio. In 1965 her documentary Philippe Pétain: Processo a Vichy won the Golden Lion for Best TV Documentary Film at the Venice International Film Festival. In addition to feature films and documentaries, she has also directed operas.

Learn More About Administrative Law in Henderson, North Carolina
Hendersonville is a city in Henderson County, North Carolina, USA, 22 miles (35 km) southeast of Asheville. In 1900, 1,917 persons lived in Hendersonville; in 1910, 2,818; and in 1940, 5,381 people lived here. As of the 2000 census, the city population was 10,420, up fivefold in one century. It is the county seat of Henderson County. Like the county, the city is named for 19th-century North Carolina Supreme Court Chief Justice Leonard Henderson. Hendersonville and Henderson County are part of the four-county Asheville Metropolitan Statistical Area, the fifth-largest MSA in North Carolina as of the 2000 U.S. Census. Dating to shortly after the founding of Henderson County in 1838, Hendersonville is traditionally known as "The City of Four Seasons". Recently, the mayor of Hendersonville has proclaimed it "Friendliest City in America". The town has a well-preserved Main Street and adjoining downtown areas with many restaurants, antique shops and boutiques located in buildings that housed key local business until the mid-1980s. Its architecture reflects the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Much downtown revitalization has occurred since the early 1990s. Larger stores are located almost entirely along the commercial strips extending outward from the downtown along U.S. Hwy. 64 East and U.S. Hwy. 176 and U.S. Hwy. 25. A number of historic neighborhoods exist outside the Main Street corridor including the 5th Avenue neighborhood on the city's west side and the Druid Hills neighborhood north of downtown. Depressed areas are located along the city's east side, but redevelopment efforts are underway in the historic commercial district along 7th Avenue East. The architectural focus of the downtown area is the Historic Henderson County Courthouse, completed in 1905 and completely renovated in 2008. The city is also home to the newly-restored City Hall (erected 1924) and the modern Henderson County Courthouse (1995). The largest street festival of the Hendersonville calendar is the annual Apple Festival, culminating in the Apple Parade that regularly draws up to 50,000 spectators. Main Street Hendersonville is also home to a number of other festivals and special activities throughout the year.

What is administrative law?
Administrative Law involves compliance with and challenges to rules, regulations, and orders of local, state, and federal government departments. Administrative law attorneys may represent clients before agencies like the workers compensation appeals boards, school board disciplinary hearings and federal agencies like the Federal Communications Commission. Administrative attorneys help negotiate the bureaucracy when interacting with the government to do things as varied as receiving a license or permit or preparing and presenting a defense to disciplinary or enforcement actions.

Professor Alla Sheffer named IEEE Fellow
December 15, 2020 by Christine Thompson | 3 mins read
Share to: Share on Facebook Tweet Share on LinkedIn
UBC Computer Science Professor Alla Sheffer will be inducted as an Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Fellow, effective January 1, 2021, for her contributions to mesh parameterization and hexahedral meshing.
IEEE Fellow is a distinction reserved for select IEEE members whose extraordinary accomplishments in any of the IEEE fields of interest are deemed fitting of this prestigious grade elevation. Each year, following a rigorous evaluation procedure, the IEEE Fellow Committee recommends a select group of recipients for elevation to IEEE Fellow. Less than 0.1% of voting members are selected annually for this member grade elevation.
Sheffer's novel approaches lead to significant advancements in research and practice
Surface parameterization, or computation of mappings between surfaces and different parameter domains, has many applications in geometry processing. Sheffer has developed several widely used parameterization methods that combine mathematical insights with practical solutions, advancing the theoretical foundations of parameterization while also providing practical software tools. She developed the ABF and ABF++ parameterization methods which are included in most major modeling software packages and are used throughout the CAD/CAE, animation, computer graphics and game development industries. These methods are referenced in every book and survey on geometry processing and is taught in many advanced modeling courses.
PolyCube Based Automatic Hex-Mesh Generation, UBC
Hexahedral, or cuboid, meshes are considered the ‘gold-standard’ for mesh discretization. However, due to the numerous constraints such meshes need to satisfy to be usable in simulation environments, hexahedral meshes have been generated for decades using semi-manual methods. Dr. Sheffer’s recent PolyCube-based meshing method proposed the first drastically different, robust approach to this problem in 20 years, making the prospect of fully automatic quality hex meshing of general geometries increasingly possible. Dr. Sheffer’s work has reawakened interest in this topic in the geometry processing community leading to multiple follow-up methods.
Alla received her PhD from Hebrew University in 1999 and is currently a full professor at the University of British Columbia, Canada, where she investigates algorithms for shape modeling and analysis in the context of computer graphics applications. She is known for her research on mesh parameterization, hexahedral meshing, computational garment design, and perception-driven shape modeling. Dr. Sheffer’s research aims to make creation and manipulation of virtual shapes accessible to a wide user base, enabling artists, fashion designers, DIY enthusiasts, and others to effortlessly create diverse 3D content. Her research aims to automate such challenging and currently mostly manual tasks as reconstructing complex 3D mechanisms, structures, and artifacts from raw product designer sketches; modeling bespoke objects that simultaneously satisfy fabrication, functionality and aesthetic constraints; and developing virtual and augmented reality interfaces for shape modeling and editing.
Dr. Sheffer received the Canadian Human Computer Communications Society Achievement Award and a UBC Killam Research Award. She is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada, and a Member of the SIGGRAPH Academy. Her research has been supported by faculty awards from IBM, Google, and Adobe, a Killam Research Fellowship, and an Audi Production Award. Sheffer has served as an Associate Editor of all three major computer graphics journals (ACM Transactions on Graphics, IEEE Transactions on Visualization Computer Graphics, and Eurographics Computer Graphics Forum). She served as a program co-chair for Eurographics, Symposium on Geometry Processing, and Shape Modeling. Dr. Sheffer had co-authored over 100 peer-reviewed publications, including 50 papers in ACM Transactions on Graphics, the topmost competitive graphics venue.

Photographing Politics: Campaigns, Protests, Demonstrations
October 4, 2016 (6:30PM – 8PM EDT)

View a recording of this event.
The American public is divided—over economic policy, social policy, foreign policy, race, privacy and national security, and much more. The two-party system is polarized, various movements are afoot, and the American public seems content with its inability to come together in civil dialogue. The current presidential campaign is rife with anger and discord.
Capturing this contentious landscape poses numerous challenges to the photojournalist. In this panel discussion, a group of ICP alumni share the strategies they employ to capture this discord.
Sarah Blesener is a documentary photographer based between New York City and Moscow. Born in Minneapolis, Minnesota, she studied Linguistics and Youth Development at North Central University. While in university, she worked as a photographer for the organization Healing Haiti based in Port au Prince, Haiti, covering events surrounding the 2010 earthquake. Upon graduation in 2012, she studied at Bookvar Russian Academy in Minneapolis, concentrating on the Russian language. She is a recent graduate of the Visual Journalism and Documentary Practice program at the International Center of Photography in New York, focusing on politics and youth studies.
Stephanie Keith, moderator, has photographed news and features for the past fifteen years for The New York Times, The New York Daily News, Reuters, and Getty Images. She is the author of the photo book Vodou Brooklyn. In 2012, she won Newswoman of the Year from the Newswomen’s Club of New York for her photos of Occupy Wall Street. In 2015, she won Best Breaking News photo from three different New York City journalism societies, and The New York Daily News chose the photo as one of the best news photos of the year. Through Reuters and Getty Images, her photos have been published worldwide in publications such as The New York Times, The Washington Post, The International Business Times, The Guardian, The Atlantic, The New Yorker, and Al Jazeera. From 2015–2016, The New York Times has published her photos on their cover on four different dates. She has lived in Brooklyn for the past twenty years and still loves it.
Johnny Milano was born in 1989 and hails from Long Island, New York. After receiving his bachelor degree in political science from St. Joseph's College, he was one of approximately 26 students accepted into the Photojournalism and Documentary Photography program at the International Center of Photography in New York City. Upon completion of the one-year program, he went on to string for Long Island's newspaper, Newsday, and continues to freelance for other news outlets such as The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and more. His work can be seen in Reuters, The Washington Post, Al Jazeera America, CNN, VICE, The Weather Channel, and more. Johnny also continues to work on long form visual essays that address current social issues, such as the Ku Klux Klan and civilian paramilitary groups who patrol the Mexican border.
Cédric von Niederhäusern is a documentary photographer. He was born in Bern, Switzerland, and worked as a photographer for several media outlets and as photo editor for the daily newspaper Tages-Anzeiger. His documentary project “Leaving war behind“ (2014) about the refugee crisis in Turkey at the border to Syria was part of several exhibitions in Switzerland and at Visa pour l’Image in Perpignan, France (2015). Selected work has been published in the books Swiss Press Photo 13 and Swiss Press Photo 15. Recently graduated from the Documentary Practice and Visual Journalism program at the International Center of Photography in New York, he is focusing on political issues in the United States, specializing in the 2016 election year and the polarization of the public that surrounds it.

Dietary Fat & Heart Disease Debate Commands New Attention
Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee Urges More Fruits and Vegetables, Less Meat
by Fiona Chew, Ph.D., Professor, S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications, Syracuse University, N.Y.
About half of American adults, or 117 million people, have one or more preventable chronic diseases related to poor diet and lack of physical activity, and about two-thirds, or 155 million of the same demographic, are overweight or obese. Guided by these facts, in February 2015, the nation’s top scientific panel on nutrition released an update on healthy nutrition and provided food-based recommendations that emphasize higher consumption of vegetables and fruits, and lower consumption of red and processed meat.
The recommendations are the scientific basis of the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, which is updated and published every five years by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), and which influences federal food and nutrition policy, as well as education initiatives such as the school lunch program.
Source: http://www.health.gov/dietaryguidelines/2015-scientific-report/img/Figure-B21-color.png
If heeded, these latest recommendations mean a significant diet shift for many Americans. They also offer some help for the environment, as the panel placed a premium on sustainability and environmental impact during its review, a new provision that acknowledges a connection between the physical well-being of humans and the health, and future, of the planet.
Towards a Healthful Diet
Focusing on a healthful diet rather than the health benefits of individual nutrients, the advice in Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2015 is intended to help Americans attain and maintain a healthy weight, promote health and prevent disease in the face of two additional nutrition-related health issues. These include suboptimal dietary patterns of Americans, resulting in poor health and high chronic disease risk, and food insecurity, whereby the availability of sufficiently nutritious foods is limited.
Data from the 2012 national food surveys “What We Eat in America” and the “National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey,” which are conducted routinely by DHHS (in partnership with USDA on the former), showed that Americans were eating inadequate amounts of vegetables, fruits, whole grains and low-fat dairy. At the same time, the survey statistics revealed that Americans were over-consuming refined grains, saturated fat, added sugars and sodium, based on the USDA recommended amounts. This behavior increased health risks, especially for high-blood pressure, cardiovascular disease (CVD), overweight and obesity, type 2 diabetes and certain cancers.
Given a review of this data and other existing research, the Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee identified three dietary patterns – the Healthy U.S.-style, the Healthy Mediterranean-style and the Healthy Vegetarian – that are associated with health benefits, such as lower rates of heart disease and stroke, and recommended them as models of healthy dietary patterns (see chart). In their 2015 scientific report, the committee explained, “A healthy dietary pattern is higher in vegetables, fruits, whole grains, low- or non-fat dairy, seafood, legumes and nuts; moderate in alcohol; lower in red and processed meats, and low in sugar-sweetened foods and drinks and refined grains.” Emphasizing sweeteners’ links to obesity and chronic disease, the panel recommended that added sugars be limited to no more than 10 calories a day, or two teaspoons.

From its analysis of food category consumption data such as burgers, sandwiches and beverages, the committee also noted that the population’s vegetable and whole grain consumption could increase, while the intake of sodium, saturated fat and refined grains would simultaneously decrease with elevated consumption of these healthier items. Likewise, they pointed out that added sugars in the diet could be lowered when limits are placed on sweets, desserts and beverage selections.
A Sustainable Diet Equals a Sustainable Environment
In considering food security and improving access to and availability of healthy food for the U.S. population, the advisory committee called for environmental policies to ensure a sustainable diet for current and future generations. Research on sustainable diets shows that diets rich in plant-based foods, including vegetables, fruits, whole grains, legumes, nuts and seeds, are lower in calories, promote health more actively and impact the environment less than the current U.S. diet, which is meat-heavy, calorie-intensive and environment-taxing. Because the latter comprises more animal- than plant-based foods, it produces more greenhouse gas emissions, and requires more land, water and energy use.
Objections and Support
The latest scientific update of the Dietary Guidelines elicited both opposition and support. In a Washington Post article dated April 20, 2015, the North American Meat Institute objected to the recommendation that Americans cut back on meat consumption, challenging the panel’s contention that meat negatively impacts the environment. The industry group also claimed that the panel had overstepped its boundaries and expertise by including sustainability considerations.
Meanwhile, the February 20, 2015 issue of The Wall Street Journal reported that large-scale global production of animal-based food accounts for 80 percent of deforestation and 70 percent of freshwater use, according to the Johns Hopkins University Center for a Livable Future. The news outlet went on to quote a health and food expert from the National Resources Defense Council (a nonprofit, international environmental advocacy group) as saying that the current recommendations are health-driven.
The Center for Science in the Public Interest, a nonprofit education and advocacy group promoting safer and healthier foods, also endorsed the panel’s conclusion that a sustainable diet higher in plant-based foods and lower in animal-based fare is better than the current American diet for both the nation’s heath, and the heath of the planet.
In short, while the advisory committee’s recommendations may not be unanimously heralded, they have been widely praised in the scientific community as a step in the right direction towards mitigating the growing, costly, and deadly, effects of a poor diet and an enervated earth.

Skydance Media and Mattel to Develop Matchbox Live-Action Motion Picture
Screenplay to be Written by David Coggeshall
LOS ANGELES & EL SEGUNDO, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Skydance and Mattel, Inc. (NASDAQ: MAT) announced today plans to develop Matchbox, its iconic real-world die-cast toy vehicle line, into a live-action motion picture.
“For nearly 70 years, Matchbox has carried enormous cultural relevance and inspired generations of kids to unleash their imaginations, combining what they see in the world every day with what they dream their own world to be,” said Robbie Brenner, Executive Producer of Mattel Films. “We look forward to working with our incredible partners at Skydance Media to craft a story for the big screen that evokes the same, imaginative spirit of this beloved Mattel franchise and delights fans of all ages.”
“We are thrilled to be working with Robbie Brenner and her amazing creative team at Mattel,” said Don Granger, President, Feature Films of Skydance. “Pairing Skydance’s unique brand of premium, elevated action-adventure entertainment with the incredible legacy of the Matchbox brand is a fantastic opportunity. There is a shared experience for everyone who has played with a Matchbox vehicle or playset, where they create their own inventive action sequence and we’re excited to craft a worldwide adventure film worthy of such imagination.”
The legendary Matchbox brand was invented in 1953 by automotive expert and enthusiast Jack Odell to solve a challenge for his daughter, who was allowed to take a toy to school only if it was small enough to fit in a matchbox. When his daughter’s school friends began clamoring for a “matchbox car,” an iconic brand was born. The high standards of authenticity for Matchbox die-cast cars have driven the brand for nearly 70 years. One Matchbox car is sold every second.
For Mattel Films, the Matchbox project will be led by Vice President Elizabeth Bassin and Creative Executive Andrew Scannell. David Ellison, Dana Goldberg, Don Granger, and Aimee Rivera will oversee for Skydance Media. The screenplay will be written by three-time Black Lister David Coggeshall, who wrote the upcoming Orphan: First Kill for Paramount as well as Lee Daniels’s untitled Netflix possession thriller currently filming in Pittsburgh and drafts of Thundercats for Warner Bros.
In addition to Matchbox, the Mattel Films development slate features movies for American Girl, Barney, Hot Wheels, Magic 8 Ball, Major Matt Mason, Masters of the Universe, Polly Pocket, Rock ‘Em Sock ‘Em Robots, Thomas & Friends, UNO, View-Master, and Wishbone. Mattel Films is also developing Christmas Balloon, a holiday family drama based on all-new IP. Its Barbie movie is currently in production.
Coming off the hugely successful Top Gun: Maverick, Skydance’s upcoming film slate includes the seventh and eighth installments of the wildly popular Mission: Impossible series, along with Ghosted and The Greatest Beer Run Ever for Apple TV+ and The Old Guard 2, Heart of Stone and a reimagining of the successful 2001 Spy Kids franchise for Netflix.

Harold Athol Fugard
South African playwright, actor, and novelist world famous for his cutting portrayal of apartheid
Fugard
Location of Birth:
Middleburg, South Africa
Athol Fugard, born Harold Athol Lanigan Fugard in the remote village of Middleburg on 11 June 1932, grew up in Port Elizabeth. His father was Afrikaner and his mother English-speaking.
Fugard enrolled at the University of Cape Town but did not finish his studies, dropping out to travel in Africa and the world. He found work on a ship, and travelled around the world for two years before returning home. He found a job as a court clerk and through this was able to witness the destruction on humans by the apartheid system.
Athol Fugard started writing after a brief spell at acting. His first work in theatres was a piece called the The Rehearsal Room. Fugard wrote, acted, and directed this play which with its multiracial cast openly rejected segregation in South African theatres. This led to most of his works being banned by the government.
In 1958, Fugard produced No Good Friday. In this play Fugard shared the stage with Zakes Mokae. This play was followed by Nongogo (Prostitute) in 1959. In the 1960s, Fugard returned to Port Elizabeth where he partnered with The Serpent Players. The following year he wrote his first international success The Blood Knot. This play confronted apartheid so effectively that the government withdrew his passport.
However, this did not stop Fugard from supporting an international boycott against South Africa. The government later relaxed the restriction, allowing him to visit England to direct a play he had written, Boesman and Lena. Another play, A Lesson from Aloes won him an international award in 1980 from the New York Critics Circle.
Even though Fugard is lesser known in South Africa, his plays have attracted the attention of actors Danny Glover and James Earl Jones, who acted in The Blood Knot and Master Harold ”¦and the Boys.
Fugard is an accomplished actor, having played Jan Smuts in the famous film Gandhi. He continues to write and act, his latest work being The Captain’s Tiger published in 1999.

The Princeton University Library Collection
Drawing courtesy of Princeton Tiger Magazine
Several Princeton collections have strong holdings in comic art, cartoons, and pictorial satire. The Graphic Arts Collection has several thousand caricatures in the form of prints or drawings, mainly in the Dickson Q. Brown '95 Collection of Thomas Rowlandson and the Richard W. Meirs '88 Collection of George Cruikshank. Although not strictly cartoonists, book illustrators specializing in comic themes such as Felix O.C. Darley, Augustus Hoppin and John McLenan are well represented in the Sinclair Hamilton Collection. The Library has published a two-volume catalogue of the Hamilton Collection under the title of Early American Book Illustrators and Wood Engravers, 1670-1870 (1958-1968). As a point of interest to the alumni of Princeton University, the Graphic Arts Collection has original artwork by several Princeton graduates: Whitney Darrow, Jr. '31, Henry Martin '48, Michael C. Witte '66, and Henry E. Payne IV '84. The Theatre Collection has caricatures of dancers, actors, and other show-business personalities, including several drawings by Al Hirschfeld, the indefatigable chronicler of the New York stage. Graphic Arts and the William Seymour Theatre Collection each have a few animation cels.
For more information about the Graphic Arts Collection, visit the Department web page, which contains the names, email addresses, and telephone numbers of the curator.
The Seeley G. Mudd Manuscript Library contains several significant cartoon collections, mostly documenting American political affairs between 1890 and 1950. The Political Cartoon Collection (MC180)has nearly a thousand original drawings, including 75 by Homer C. Davenport (1867-1912), a Hearst cartoonist, one of the most savage caricaturists of his day. In the William H. Walker Collection (MC068) are approximately a thousand pen-and-ink drawings executed by Walker (1871-1938), a regular contributor to Life magazine and a pungent critic of the political scene during the administrations of Theodore Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson. The Carey Cartoon Service Collection (MC156) consists of large color boards displayed in shop windows, most of them commenting on foreign policy issues during World War I. As of December 2002, soon to be added is the Derso and Kelen Cartoons. The curator for Public Policy papers has particulars about this new collection.
Altogether, these Princeton collections cover several centuries and many categories ranging from early political and humorous drawings of Rowlandson, Cruikshank, Gillray and Nast to modern comic strip art, caricature, magazine gag cartoons, political cartoons, and cels from animated films. Princeton's resources are as deep as they are broad. Hoping to do justice to its diverse holdings, I have conceived this exhibit as an overview, a sampling of the cartoons that the Library has collected and preserved for the perusal of students, scholars, and devotees of the comic arts.

Finally, Acupuncture Proven To Reduce Pain
Acupuncture effectively reduces pain according to research published in The Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA). Acupuncture groups had significantly greater reductions of pain than both non-treatment control groups and sham (imitation/placebo) control acupuncture groups in multiple high quality studies. Specifically, acupuncture was found effective for reducing pain associated with osteoarthritis, chronic headache, shoulder pain, nonspecific musculoskeletal pain, neck pain and back pain.
The researchers from Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, New York and Technical University, Munich underscored the importance of this latest research. They note that prior meta-analyses and systematic reviews of acupuncture for the treatment of pain included research of “variable quality.” In this new study, the scope was “restricted to high-quality trials.”
The researchers started with 31 eligible studies with a total of 19,827 patients. Studies were accepted only from the United States of America, United Kingdom, Germany, Spain and Sweden. Only studies with controls were included. Controls included no-acupuncture and sham/placebo acupuncture. All studies were conducted between 1996 and 2008. The researchers refined the studies down to 29 from the original 31 to preserve the highest quality evidence profile.
The clinical results demonstrated acupuncture to provide a “good response” to pain reduction in 50% of all cases. Sham/placebo acupuncture groups demonstrated the ability to reduce pain in 42.5% of cases and no-acupuncture controls demonstrated pain reduction in 30% of all cases. Some concern was expressed by the researchers that the sham/placebo acupuncture groups received active true acupuncture because some of the sham/placebo techniques “involved skin penetration.” They note that the sham/placebo acupuncture may not be “physiologically inactive.” As a result, some of the successes with sham/placebo acupuncture may reflect true acupuncture results. The researchers note “trials that include sham acupuncture as a comparison may underestimate the effects of acupuncture on pain reduction.” Another consideration is that these controlled studies involve blinding and standardization. As a result, the benefits of acupuncture may be underestimated because a true clinical setting involves customization of acupuncture procedures according to an individual patient’s differential diagnosis.
The researchers note that many established guidelines recommend acupuncture. They cite, for example, that the American College of Physicians’ guidelines recommend acupuncture for the treatment of back pain. Also, the UK National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) guidelines officially recommend acupuncture treatments for both chronic headaches and migraines when unresponsive to pharmaceutical medications.
This level of meticulous review establishes acupuncture as a standard and effective tool for the treatment of pain. This research has been published just after a recent discovery by investigators at Rutgers University Medical School, New Jersey that acupuncture reduces inflammation. The surgery department researchers proved that electroacupuncture fights infections including polymicrobial peritonitis and reduces severe systemic inflammation due to infections, sepsis. The researchers documented that the anti-inflammatory effects of electroacupuncture “are voltage dependent.” Non-acupuncture points (sham points) did not exert anti-inflammatory responses and “electroacupuncture with a wooden toothpick” did not reduce inflammation. Only true acupuncture was effective in regulating both dopamine and cytokine levels and produced anti-inflammatory effects that prevented death.
The researchers note that the anti-inflammatory mechanism of electroacupuncture is “mediated by the sciatic and vagus nerves that modulates the production of catecholamines in the adrenal glands.” The researchers documented that electroacupuncture reduced lipopolysaccharide-induced serum levels of cytokines, reduced inflammation and prevented death due to sepsis.
There is a powerful take away from the latest research. Not only is acupuncture effective but it is irresponsible and uninformed to dismiss it. The data is in and acupuncture is a valuable treatment modality. There is a great need in modern clinical settings to provide enhanced relief from pain to alleviate suffering. Moreover, acupuncture’s anti-inflammatory actions demonstrate that it saves lives by preventing sepsis.

Summer in Chicago tends to be the most violent season, with roughly half of every year’s homicides occurring between Memorial Day and Labor Day, according to the City of Chicago.
PSPC created the Chicago Fund for Safe and Peaceful Communities to support community-based groups on the South and West Sides whose summer and fall events, programs and services bring neighbors together, provide rich experiences for youth, and build bridges between police and community. In 2020, PSPC provided 164 grants of $1,000 to $10,000 — totaling $1 million — for summer and fall activities that create the conditions necessary for peace.
From April to early May, the Chicago Fund reviews hundreds of community-led proposals and chooses about 100 to 180 hyperlocal organizations — which have operating budgets of less than $500,000 — to provide grants to community organizations to ensure their events, programs and services successful.
In 2019, nearly 40,000 Chicago residents attended events, participated in programming or received services as a result of the funded projects.
Among the 2019 projects:
A Humboldt Park Truth and Reconciliation Summit gave community leaders — including law enforcement — a forum to publicly apologize for causing harm, work through guided meditation sessions and then pledge to help implement change.
The South Side Jazz Coalition and the 3rd District of the Chicago Police Department presented a free, live jazz concert on the police station’s lawn, in the Grand Crossing neighborhood. The event included musicians ages 12 to 17 as well as established Chicago performers.
Up to 30 young people learned beekeeping skills and how to run a real-world beekeeping business at hives set up in the Englewood, West Woodlawn and West Garfield Park neighborhoods. Afterward, they demonstrated what they learned during a Cops & Bees event, cosponsored by the Chicago Police Department’s 7th and 11th Districts as well as with the Cook County State’s Attorney’s Office. Residents and law enforcement chatted, mingled and sampled fresh, raw honey.
From June to September, the Healing Through Art and Nature project in Little Village brought together artists and residents to complete art- and nature-related projects in a community garden. Events also included community planting days, a summer solstice observance, and a back-to-school celebration.
Since its inception in 2016, the Chicago Fund has provided $3.3 million support for 505 projects in Chicago. It has grown each year.

MP3 Joel Stein - Blanco
Alternative folk rock - as if the Beatles met Wilco while vacationing in Australia.
13 MP3 Songs
ROCK: Folk Rock, ROCK: Acoustic
With the release of his fourth album, "Blanco", Joel Stein continues to captivate the world’s ears with his music. Produced by the prolific New York singer-songwriter himself, "Blanco" features the multi-talented Stein singing and performing nearly all the instruments on the record. As on his previous CD, "Marionette", "Blanco" features several of Joel’s talented musician friends, including members of the bands of Rufus Wainwright, Sean Lennon, and Duncan Sheik. Joel’s songwriting is his best to date, subtly reflecting the sound of his long-time influences The Beatles, and that of more recent influences like Wilco, Travis, Ron Sexsmith, Radiohead, the Beach Boys, and Crowded House.
https://www.tradebit.com describes Joel as “Led Zeppelin and Bob Dylan rolled into one, making rockin'' folk music that picks you up and takes you on a journey to Woody Guthrie-land, with stops in Velvet Underground-ville.� The Houston Chronicle says he “flirts with many musical styles, flitting energetically and effortlessly from Dylan''s poetic storytelling to Bowie''s epic lyricism to Ben Folds Five''s sassy piano-driven jaunts and all points in between.�
Since the release of his last CD, Joel has been featured in TIME magazine, voted "Best Houston Guitarist" by Ticketmaster/https://www.tradebit.com, and nominated "Houston Songwriter of the Year" by them as well. He has garnered six ASCAP Awards for his songwriting, performed at the CMJ Music Marathon and Songwriters Hall of Fame showcases in New York City, and appeared on a national tour with the Three Irish Tenors. Joel also founded Green Zebra Records and became Creative Director of Inca Coda Publishing.
A demo Joel recorded in college caught the attention of GoldRhyme Records, and the songwriter signed with the Texas indie label while still a music composition student at Rice University, in Houston. The relationship saw the subsequent recording of three CD''s of original alternative folk-rock. Joel and GoldRhyme parted ways soon after the release of "Marionette", which was produced by Brad Albetta (Rufus Wainright, Martha Wainright, Sean Lennon) and recorded with drummer Matt Johnson (John Mayer, Jeff Buckley) and bassist Jeff Allen (Duncan Sheik).
Joel’s live shows range from intimate acoustic folk numbers to full-out loud, soul-stirring rock and roll. Whether solo or with his band, The Totems, Joel continues to attract audiences across the USA and Europe.

GOLDIE HAWN TO RECEIVE “2017 CINEMA ICON AWARD”
PLUS HAWN IS TEAMING UP WITH AMY SCHUMER FOR A RETURN TO THE BIG SCREEN IN 20th CENTURY FOX’S “SNATCHED” IN THEATERS MAY 12, 2017
WASHINGTON D.C. (March 7, 2017) – Academy Award winner Goldie Hawn will receive the prestigious “Cinema Icon Award” at CinemaCon, the official convention of The National Association of Theatre Owners (NATO) held March 27-30 at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas. Hawn will be presented with this special honor at the “CinemaCon Big Screen Achievement Awards” ceremony Thursday, March 30 hosted by the Coca-Cola Company, the official presenting sponsor of CinemaCon. Previous winners of this esteemed award include Morgan Freeman, Susan Sarandon, Michelle Pfeiffer and Kevin Costner. The announcement was made today by Mitch Neuhauser, Managing Director of CinemaCon.
“With a career that has spanned roles in more than 30 films Goldie Hawn continues to shine on the big screen as one of the most entertaining, relatable and recognizable actresses of our time,” noted Neuhauser. “With an unforgettable presence and charm both onscreen and off Hawn has entertained audiences of all ages and we are pleased to honor an incredible woman with this year’s ‘Cinema Icon Award.’”
This summer Goldie Hawn and Amy Schumer will star together in 20th Century Fox’s “Snatched,” out on May 12, 2017. After her boyfriend dumps her on the eve of their exotic vacation, impetuous dreamer Emily (Amy Schumer) persuades her ultra-cautious mother, Linda (Goldie Hawn) to travel with her to paradise. Polar opposites, Emily and Linda realize that working through their differences as mother and daughter- in unpredictable, hilarious fashion – is the only way to escape the wildly outrageous jungle adventure they have fallen into.
Goldie Hawn is an actress, producer, director, best-selling author and children’s advocate who made her acting debut in the comedy “Good Morning, World” and later rose to prominence as part of the comedy show “Laugh-In”. In 1969, Hawn won an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her work in “Cactus Flower” alongside Walter Matthau and Ingrid Bergman. She has starred in more than thirty films among them, “Sugarland Express,” “Death Becomes Her,” and “First Wives Club”. Hawn has also produced numerous films including “Private Benjamin” which earned her a second Academy Award nomination for the lead role. She is the founder of The Hawn Foundation, an international charitable organization with a mission to equip children with the social and emotional skills they need to lead smarter, heathier and happier lives. She published her best-selling memoir, “A Lotus Grows in the Mud,” in 2005 and has also released a book offering guidance on raising healthy and joyful children called “10 Mindful Minutes.”

Teresa Brewer, Pop and Jazz Singer, Dies at 76
Updated April 25, 2019 – By Jeff Tamarkin
Teresa Brewer, a singer whose career began with a string of pop hits in the 1950s and who later graduated to jazz, died in her New Rochelle, New York home on October 17th of a neuromuscular disease. Brewer, best known for her 1950 chart-topper “Music! Music! Music!,” was 76.
Born Theresa Breuer in Toledo, Ohio in 1931, Brewer first sang publicly at age 2, singing “Take Me Out to the Ball Game” on a radio program. Three years later she won a contest singing on the Major Bower Amateur Hour radio show and toured with the show until age 12. She moved to New York and began recording for the London label in 1949. “Music! Music! Music!” came the following year, and stayed at number one for four weeks. Switching to the Coral label, she scored her biggest career hit in early 1953 with “Till I Waltz Again with You.” Brewer’s other ’50s hits included “Let Me Go, Lover,” “A Tear Fell,” “A Sweet Old Fashioned Girl” and, in 1957, “You Send Me,” a cover of a Sam Cooke hit. In 1953 she starred in the film Those Redheads from Seattle. That same year she co-starred with Mel Torme on a TV variety program, Summertime USA.
She remained popular throughout the ’50s and early ’60s, headlining in nightclubs in addition to recording and appearing on television (including The Ed Sullivan Show, on which she appeared nearly 40 times). In 1962 Brewer signed with Philips Records, recording eight albums over the next four years.
Brewer withdrew from the business in the late ’60s to raise her four daughters, but in the early ’70s, now married to Bob Thiele, who had produced some of her early records, Brewer recast herself as a jazz singer. She reactivated her recording career, performing with such greats as Count Basie, Earl “Fatha” Hines and Stephane Grappelli. She collaborated with Duke Ellington on his album It Don’t Mean a Thing If It Ain’t Got That Swing and also recorded an album with drummer Shelly Manne.
Brewer continued to record and perform in concert into the 1990s. Her 1978 Carnegie Hall concert featured Grappelli and Dizzy Gillespie. In 1991 she recorded a tribute album to Louis Armstrong that included Gillespie, Wynton Marsalis, Roy Hargrove and others. She spent the last years of her life in New York.

Lee Child, Ian Rankin and Val McDermid Longlisted for Theakston Award
The crime fiction titans Lee Child, Ian Rankin and Val McDermid have all been longlisted for the Theakston Old Peculier Crime Novel of the Year Award.
The prize, which is open to UK and Irish crime authors whose novels were published in paperback between 1st May last year and 30th April this year, includes four previous winners of the award: Mark Billingham, who won in both 2005 and 2009; Val McDermid, 2006’s winner; 2011-winner Lee Child and Sarah Hilary who received the award in 2015.
McDermid is in the running for her 30th novel, Out of Bounds (Sphere) that helped the veteran crime author to her first UK Official overall top spot in January, while Child is longlisted for Night School (Bantam), which has claimed Child his 16th Official UK Top 50 number one spot.
Rankin is longlisted for Even Dogs In The Wild (Orion), the 20th instalment in the bestselling Inspector Rebus series, a character that this year is celebrated at RebusFest after 30 years. Rankin joins both former winners and other previously longlisted authors, Peter May, Stuart Neville, Eva Dolan, Ruth Ware, Antonia Hodgson and David Young, on the 18-strong longlist.
The longlist is selected by an academy of crime writing authors, agents, editors, reviewers and members of the Theakston Old Peculier Crime Writing Festival Programming Committee. It marks a good year in crime for Hachette, dominating the longlist with 11 books out of 18 with Quercus’ new “upmarket” imprint riverrun accounting for two entries. Penguin Random House is represented by four books on the list, three of which are published by Vintage. S&S UK has one entry as does Bonnier Publishing on its Zaffre imprint and HarperCollins on its The Borough Press imprint.
The 2017 Award is run in partnership with T&R Theakston Ltd, WH Smith, and The Mail on Sunday. Longlisted titles will now feature in a dedicated online campaign with WH Smith as well as being promoted in over 1,500 library branches.
According to a report by The Bookseller, the shortlist of six titles will be announced on 20th May, followed by a six-week promotion in libraries and WH Smith stores nationwide. The overall winner will be decided by the panel of Judges, alongside a public vote.
The winner of the £3,000 prize will be announced at an award ceremony hosted by broadcaster Mark Lawson on 20th July on the opening night of the 15th Theakston Old Peculier Crime Writing Festival in Harrogate.
Executive director of T&R Theakston, Simon Theakston, said: “2017’s longlist features some of the most established names in crime fiction. In 2017 Ian Rankin celebrates 30 years of Rebus. 20 years ago, Lee Child introduced us to Jack Reacher, and Val McDermid recently celebrated publishing her 30th novel. It shows how the genre not only dominates publishing but shapes our cultural landscape. 2017 will no doubt be a hotly-contended award.”
Gemma Rowland, operations manager at Harrogate International Festivals, said: “The list demonstrates the scale and influence of crime writing talent at work today. This is one of the most sought after awards as The Theakston Old Peculier Crime Writing Festival has become the biggest celebration of crime fiction in the world. We also look forward to announcing the Outstanding Contribution to Crime Fiction Award, with past recipients over the years including PD James, Ruth Rendell, Reginald Hill and Colin Dexter.”

The History of 7th Army
In 2022, 7th Army Training Command relinquished training readiness authority of U.S. Army Europe and Africa's brigades and resumed it's historical mission as the training command for the U.S. Army in Europe.
7th Army Training Command's mission expanded in 2018 to include training readiness authority over four of U.S. Army Europe's combat brigades: the 173rd Airborne Brigade, 2nd Cavalry Regiment, 12th Combat Aviation Brigade and the re-activating 41st Field Artillery Brigade.
In 2016, the 7th Army Joint Multinational Training Command was returned to its original designation as the 7th Army Training Command.
7ATC's Joint Multinational Simulation Center opens a 50,000-square-foot facility for digital models, simulations and virtual training.
The Seventh Army Training Command changes its name to the Joint Multinational Training Command and is the command element for Grafenwoehr Training Area, Combat Maneuver Training Center in Hohenfels, the Combined Arms Training Center in Vilseck, and the Training Support Activity, Europe. The JMTC assisted the militaries of the former Warsaw Pact countries and Russia in transforming their forces and our NATO allies in preparation for current conflicts.
At the same time, CMTC transformed into the Joint Multinational Readiness Center.
Grafenwoehr becomes the headquarters for the Seventh U.S. Army Training Center, which becomes the Seventh Army Training Command the following year.
The Seventh Army Training Center is responsible for all U.S. Army training activities in Europe.
About 12,000 Soldiers come from the U.S. to join the 220,000-man, U.S. Seventh Army in West Germany.
U.S. Army Europe and Seventh Army Headquarters merge at Heidelberg.
Grafenwoehr becomes headquarters of the Seventh Army Training Center, incorporating the Grafenwoehr and Hohenfels Training Areas to become the largest training complex in Germany.
Rose Barracks becomes the home of the Seventh Army Combined Arms School.
Between 1950 and 1953, the camp was renovated to the form and structure seen today. The construction projects completed in this time frame included, among others, the field camps Tunesia, Cheb, Kasserine, Aachen, Algiers and Normandy. These facilities could house 42,000 troops.
The U.S. Seventh Army is reactivated and the headquarters is created from the Constabulary headquarters at Stuttgart. A year later, V and VII Corps arrive in Europe and are assigned to Seventh Army.
The U.S. Army officially re-opens Grafenwoehr Training Area was as a designated tank training center.
The U.S. Seventh Army is deactivated.
During the Battle of the Bulge, the Seventh Army extended its flanks to take over much of the Third Army area which allowed the Third to relieve surrounded U.S. forces at Bastogne. Along with the French First Army, the Seventh went on the offensive in February of 1945 and eliminated the enemy pocket in the Colmar area. The Seventh then went into the Saar, crossed the Rhine, captured Nürnberg and Munich, crossed the Brenner Pass, and made contact with the Fifth Army – once again on Italian soil. In less than nine months of continuous fighting, the Seventh had advanced over 1,000 miles and for varying times had commanded 24 American and Allied Divisions.
In May 1945, after the surrender of Germany, the U.S. Army occupied the Grafenwoehr Training Area.
In March, Lieutenant General Alexander Patch was assigned to command the Seventh Army which moved to Naples, Italy. In August, Seventh Army units assaulted the beaches of southern France in the St. Tropez and St. Raphael area. Within one month, the Army employing three American Divisions, five French Divisions, and the first Airborne Task Force had advanced 400 miles and had joined with the Normandy forces. In the process, the Seventh Army had liberated Marseilles, Lyon, Toulon, and all of Southern France. The Army them assaulted the German forces in the Vosges Mountains, broke into the Alsatian Plain, and reached the Rhine River after capturing the city of Strasbourg.
The Seventh Army was the first U.S. Field Army to see combat in WWII and was activated at sea when the I Armored Corps under the command of Lieutenant General George Patton was re-designated July 10, 1943. The Seventh Army landed on several beaches in southern Sicily and captured the city of Palermo July 22 and along with the British Eighth Army captured Messina Aug. 16. During the fighting, elements of the Seventh Army killed or captured more than 113,000 enemy soldiers.
The shoulder patch for the Seventh Army was approved June 23. The letter “A” for “Army” is formed by seven steps indicating the numerical designation of the unit. The colors suggest the three basic combat branches which make up a field army – blue for Infantry, red for Artillery, and yellow for Armor (Cavalry). Veterans of the Seventh Army wore a tab reading “Seven Steps to Hell” under the patch, but this tab was never officially authorized.
CATC History
The 7th Army Training Command's Combined Arms Training Center (CATC) was originally established at Vilseck, Germany, in 1948 as the U.S. Constabulary Tank Training Center. In 1949, it came under the command of Seventh Army. In 1958, the Tank Training Center was re-designated as the Seventh Army Training Center.
In 1959, the organization was re-designated as the Seventh Army Combined Arms School and training was expanded to include personnel from the infantry, armor and field artillery.
In 1970, sustainment courses were added and as a result, the organization was re-designated on July 1, 1971, as the U.S. Army Europe (USAREUR) Combined Arms Training Center. Over the coming years, USAREUR moved the combat support courses formerly held at the Combat Support Training Center at Oberammergau to CATC at Vilseck. Later, CATC assumed responsibility for courses of instruction for Military Intelligence, Military Police, NBC Defense, logistics, Systems Design, command, management and others.
In January 1974, it was re-designated as the Seventh Army Combined Arms Training Center and since then, has operated under that name.
ISTC History
The ISTC, formerly known as International Long Range Reconnaissance Patrol School, dates back to 1974 when, at a EURO-NATO Army Sub-Group Conference, it was suggested to centralize the training of LRRP units and Special Forces in a joint training facility. In 1980, Belgium, Germany and the United Kingdom signed the first MOU, Greece joined the MOU in 1981, USA in 1986, Norway in 1989, Italy in 1991, Netherlands in 1992, Denmark in 1994, Turkey in 1999, and Romania in 2017.
In 2000, the US took over as Lead Nation. In 2001, ILRRPS became ISTC.

JMRC History
The Hohenfels Training Area is located in the Free State of Bavaria in the Oberfalz (Upper Palatinate) and is named after the market town of Hohenfels.
Throughout Bavaria's history, there were many armies that roamed this region. The city of Regensburg was founded by the Romans in 179 A.D. and maintained an outpost here at this location. In 788 A.D., Charlemagne pulled Bavaria into his empire. In the 1600s, the Swedes occupied Regensburg and Napolean was based in Regensburg in 1809 during his battle with the Austrians.
The Hohenfels Training Area was originally founded by the German Army for military training April 1, 1938. From late 1939 to early spring 1940, more than 3,000 Polish non-commissioned officers and soldiers were interned at Unteroedenhart. This was one of the Wehrmacht's prime training areas where they rehearsed breaching the Maginot Line and invading France.
During the fall of 1942, approximately 7,000 prisoners of war from the British Empire and the U.S. were permanently billeted in Camp Unteroedenhart. On April 22, 1945, the 2nd Cavalry Regiment of Patton'sThird Army entered the training area with only nine tanks and limited resistance from German and Hungarian troops, liberating the POWs. The training area was opened for the resettlement of refugees and expelles from Soviet-occupied German territories in 1948. These settlers were integrated into the community of "Hohenfels-Nainhof," which became one of the largest rural communities in Bavaria.
However, three years later, U.S. forces claimed the area for military training purposes and requested its expansion to the west. In a meeting hosted August 17, 1951 in Petersberg -- among the German government, the State Government of Bavaria, the Land Commissioner of Bavaria, and U.S. Army representatives -- an agreement was reached to extend the training area to its current size of about 40,017 acres.
By 1984, the training area had 52 ranges within its firing and maneuver area and a MILES warehouse that held enough equipment for 15 companies. REFORGER exercises and HAWK missile sites became primary missions to the HTA.
Due to increasing training requirements, U.S. Army Europe in 1987 formed the Combat Maneuver Training Center (CMTC) at Hohenfels Training Area, creating the Army's third combat training center. In 1990, an Opposing Force (OPFOR) was added, the 1st Battalion, 4th Infantry Regiment (1-4 IN). With the opening of the CMTC, Hohenfels Training Area became the primary maneuver training area for USAREUR Soldiers.
In 2005, the CMTC transformed and became the Joint Multinational Readiness Center, or JMRC.
JMSC History
In 2008, the Joint Multinational Simulation Center opens a state-of-the-art 50,000-square-foot facility for digital models, simulations and virtual training.
JMTG-U History
Starting in July 2020, Illinois Army National Guard's 33rd Infantry Brigade Combat Team continues a multi-year tradition of National Guard support to JMTG-U.
From November 2019-July 2020, Wisconsin Army National Guard's 32rd IBCT was on ground. In 2019, Soldiers from 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault) from Fort Campbell, Kentucky, supported the mission, May-November. Tennessee Army National Guard's 278th Armored Cavalry Regiment deployed to JMTG-U for nine months, August 2018-May 2019. Prior to that, New York National Guard's IBCT ran the program from November 2017-August 2018. In 2017, Oklahoma National Guard's 45th IBCT manned the day-to-day JMTG-U mission from January to November.
In 2016, California Army National Guard's 79th IBCT took over the on-ground mission as a longtime partner with Ukraine in the National Guard's State Partnership Program, alongside 3rd Infantry Division Soldiers. The oversight of the now Joint Multinational Training Group-Ukraine mission shifted to 7th ATC later that same year.
In 2015, U.S. Army Europe began supporting Ukrainian security forces and deployed 173rd Airborne Brigade to support the mission, which was then called Fearless Guardian, at the International Peacekeeping and Security Center.
NCOA History
The Seventh Army Noncommissioned Officer Academy was originally established as the United States Constabulary Noncommissioned Officer Academy and is the oldest NCO Academy in the Army. Due to the shortage of NCOs in the Constabulary, Major General I. D. White, Commanding General of the U.S. Constabulary, directed then Brigadier General Bruce C. Clarke, Commanding General of the 2d Constabulary Brigade, to open a school for the purpose of training NCOs. The first class was enrolled on 17 October 1949, with BG Bruce C. Clarke as the Commandant. The Academy was designated the Seventh Army Noncommissioned Officer Academy on 1 November 1951, when the Seventh United States Army absorbed the functions and facilities of the Constabulary.
At its inception, the Academy occupied two adjoining Kasernes: Stetten Kaserne and Jensen barracks, located in Munich, Germany. On 31 October 1958, after nine years in the Bavarian capital, the Academy moved to its second location at Flint Kaserne, Bad Toelz, Germany. In January of 1972, the office of the Commandant, which up until that time was held by a general grade or field grade officer, was officially designated as a Command Sergeant Major position. The first enlisted Commandant was CSM Lawrence T. Hickey.
In July of 1983, a significant change took place in the program of instruction. The curriculum changed from the Primary Leadership Course (PLC) to the Primary Leadership Development Course (PLDC). Effective 4 September 1990, the Seventh Army NCO Academy relocated to and became a tenant unit of the Grafenwoehr Training Area (GTA). In January of 1999, the Academy added a third PLDC training company, which made it the largest PLDC in the United States Army. In October of 2005, the Academy transformed the Program of Instruction from PLDC to the Warrior Leader Course and in October of 2015 it changed to the Basic Leader Course; utilizing Grafenwoehr training sites to train an adaptive and creative NCO.
In 2003, the NCO Academy started receiving International Military Students (IMS) and has since trained over 1,000 of our European and African allies.
The 7th Army NCO Academy earned the recognition as an “Institute of Excellence” during three consecutive Accreditations from the United States Army Sergeants Major Academy and TRADOC with the most recent being in September of 2015.

Stranger in Paradise: The Works of Reverend Howard Finster
Karl and Bertl Arnstein Galleries
February 25, 2012 - June 3, 2012
"More than anything, the exhibition encapsulates the nervous, jittery, caffeine-laced vitality of Finster as a preacher, a man of visions and a lovable crank who appeared never to sleep. . . . And yet, for all the fire and brimstone, Finster's paintings have a childlike, upbeat quality, which makes his art amusing and engaging, rather than grim or tendentious." Steven Litt, The Plain Dealer
Survey of the works and legacy of Reverend Howard Finster, self-proclaimed “Man of Visions,” in Stranger in Paradise. One of America’s most widely known and prolific self-taught artists, Finster produced over 46,000 works of art before his death in 2001.
In the mid-1960s, Finster began building a roadside park, an attraction meant to display all of "the inventions of mankind." As he was using his hands to apply paint Finster noticed that the paint smudge on his finger had created a perfect human face. A voice spoke to him, saying, “paint sacred art.” In response, Finster produced thousands of sermon-laden artworks with subjects ranging from historical characters and popular culture icons like Elvis Presley to evangelistic fantasy landscapes and futuristic cities. Most works are meticulously covered in Finster’s own hand-lettered words and biblical verse, recording visionary prophesies and providing glimpses of a celestial outer space world that Finster believed God had revealed to him.
This exhibition provides an in-depth survey of Finster's career, covering the variety of themes inherent in his work, much of it relating to his visionary experiences. Well-known and misunderstood, his position remains polarized, suspended somewhere between awe for his tireless, faith driven creativity and reluctance by the art community to accept his place in the pantheon of contemporary art.
This exhibition is curated by Glen C. Davies, organized by Krannert Art Museum, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, and sponsored in part by Fox Development Corporation; Thomas E. Scanlin; Office of the Chancellor, U of I; Office of the Provost and Vice-Chancellor for Academic Affairs, U of I; Illinois Arts Council; Krannert Art Museum Director’s Circle Fund; and Krannert Art Museum Council.

Phyllis Newman Dies: Tony-Winning Broadway Legend Was 86
Phyllis Newman, known for her Tony Award-winning role as the bath towel-clad Martha Vail in the musical Subways Are for Sleeping, has died. The star of stage and screen was 86.
The news was announced by her son Adam Green, a theater critic for Vogue, via Twitter. “My sister @amanda_green and I had to say goodbye to our beautiful mother today,” he tweeted. “I’ll miss her more than I can say.”
In addition to Subways Are for Sleeping, Newman appeared in numerous Broadway productions including Bells Are Ringing, The Apple Tree, On the Town, The Prisoner of Second Avenue, Awake and Sing, Wish You Were Here and First Impressions. She also had her one-woman musical The Madwoman of Central Park West which was co-written by her and Arthur Laurents. She also received a Tony nom for her performance in Neil Simon’s Broadway Bound.
She received a Drama Desk nomination for her starring performance in the Off Broadway production of James Lapine’s The Moment When… Her other Off Broadway credits include Nicky Silver’s The Food Chain, the Naked Angels production of Shyster as well as the revival of A Majority of One.
She had multiple appearances on the Ed Sullivan Show and was the first woman to host The Johnny Carson Show. Her other TV credits include 100 Centre Street, Oz, Murder, She Wrote, thirtysomething and The Jury.
On the film side, she appeared in numerous features including The Human Stain, It Had To Be You, For the Time Being, Fish in the Bathtub, A Price Above Rubies, The Beautician and the Beast, Only You, Mannequin, To Find a Man, Bye Bye Braverman and Picnic.
Newman was diagnosed with breast cancer in 1983 as she detailed in her book Just in Time: Notes From My Life. This led to her bringing awareness to the disease as well as women’s health issues and needs in the entertainment industry. She started The Phyllis Newman Women’s Health Initiative of The Actors’ Fund of America in 1993.
She was married to the late composer and screenwriter Adolph Green for 42 years. They are survived by their children Adam and Amanda.

A-pop! Notes on the Oscars… — And more TV shows featuring Asian Americans
March 9, 2015 By Northwest Asian Weekly
By Vivian Nguyen
Happy February! Between the Academy Awards to the launch of America’s first all-Asian starring cast on TV since the 90s, this month has been full of news and events. Read on to find out the latest in Hollywood.
The 87th Academy Awards
This year’s Oscars host, actor Neil Patrick Harris welcomed the audience with the following line:
“Tonight we celebrate Hollywood’s best and whitest, sorry… brightest.” It was a telling joke that alluded to how the Academy Awards is consistently a white celebrity-studded affair. And this year was no different. The awards show, however, did have its Asian representation in small ways.
Disney animated film “Big Hero 6” won the category for Best Animated Film Feature. The movie follows the story of a young robotics genius named Hiro Hamada who forms a superhero team to fight a masked villain. “Big Hero 6” features the starring voices of Asian American teen actor Ryan Potter and actress Jamie Chung, best known for roles from the drama film “Sucker Punch” and “The Hangover” franchise. “The Tale of the Princess Kaguya” from Japanese director and animator Isao Takahata and Japanese producer Yoshiaki Nishimura, was also nominated for the same category.
Other relevant nominations from this year’s Oscars include: “Last Days in Vietnam,” a documentary that explores the final weeks of the Vietnam War, was nominated for Best Documentary Feature.
Beijing-based director Hu Wei, along with French producer Julien Féret, had a short titled “Butter Lamp (La Lampe Au Beurre De Yak,” in contention for Best Live Action Short Film. Shot in Tibet, the 15-minute film explores the preservation of Tibetan heritage in midst of rapid globalization and modernization.
“Fresh Off The Boat” Continues to Make Headlines
We’ve previously talked a good deal about the ABC sitcom “Fresh Off The Boat,” which premiered earlier this month to great fanfare. Based off an autobiography of the same name from celebrity chef and television personality Eddie Huang, the show stars actors Randall Park, Constance Wu, and Hudson Yang.
Though the show has received fairly positive feedback from critics and fans alike, the show’s social media team was recently under fire for a tweet featuring a controversial infographic. In an effort to promote the show, the said infographic was posted from the show’s official Twitter account that included the following tweet:
“The world is full of different hats. Watch the 2 Episode Premiere of #FreshOffTheBoat Wednesday!”
The accompanying promotional ad showed illustrated ethnic people in stereotypical hats, such as a turban, cowboy hat, and a sombrero. Not sure why ABC’s social marketing team, or perhaps the agency they hired, thought this would be a strategic move for promotion. Such a misguided marketing tactic.
Upcoming Shows Featuring Asian Americans
“Fresh Off The Boat” isn’t the only show with Asian Americans to make waves on television recently.
Over on Disney Junior, a cable channel from Disney aimed at kids 10 and under, a new animated series titled “Miles From Tomorrowland” recently debuted. Featuring an Asian American family —that is, leading characters of Asian and half-Asian descent — the animated space adventure series follows in the footsteps of “Big Hero 6” by using science and technology as major driving themes for their characters and plotlines.
Not only does “Miles From Tomorrowland” introduce and promote diversity to young viewers — a concept that was unfathomable when I was growing up — the show’s executive team hopes to encourage a whole generation to become interested in the fields of science, math, engineering and technology.
Serious props have to be given to Disney here. Between their recent critical and commercial success with “Big Hero 6,” the landmark launch of the all-Asian scripted comedy “Fresh Off The Boat” on ABC (also a Disney-owned company), and “Miles From Tomorrowland,” it’s clear that the entertainment conglomerate is committed to diversity in their programming. Good job, Disney. (end)

THE MAKING OF BRAD THOMAS ACKLEY
With neon pink shorts, pumped up Airwalk hi-tops, and a flipped bill hat with “RAD” written on it, a 6-year-old Brad Thomas Ackley watched The Search for Animal Chin while practicing his latest skateboard tricks. Growing up under the bright southern California sun, in the epicenter of the surf and skate culture of the 80’s, Guns n Roses and RUN DMC were the soundtrack to his youth.
The mashup of modern, raw, and reckless infected and possessed him. It was that energy, rhythm, and attitude that has shaped his life and art.
First, it was Michael Jackson’s Thriller. An epic album that played like a movie. It was truly larger than life. Spinning for countless hours on repeat, the undeniable rhythms of Jackson’s soul and Eddie Van Halen’s guitar shredding were permanently injected into his’s DNA. Not long after, Guns n Roses Appetite for Destruction took center stage with bone crushing riffs and Slash’s unapologetic guitar wailing. Brad’s older brother, Chad, was the real catalyst, supplying endless mixtapes he’d gotten from neighborhood friends, which included the rap rock fusion of RUN DMC and Aerosmith. It was infectious. It was groundbreaking. Crossing color lines and defying genres, it blew the doors to musical discovery wide open.
LIFE AFTER THE GUITAR
After months of begging, 15-year-old Brad finally convinced his parents to buy him his first electric guitar. It was a black Stratocaster copy. He began by jamming Soundgarden and Black Sabbath songs, but quickly put a band together which included future Neon Trees guitarist Chris Allen. The scene was very competitive and creative. Inspired by the incredible local musicians around him, such as Rocco DeLuca and the Rodriguez Brothers – sons of LA drummer Art Rodriguez (Bette Midler, Manhattan Transfer, Rickie Lee Jones). Brad joined late night jam sessions and absorbed every scrap of music he could fight for. Infused with the smashing beats, the raw soul and the head banging rock that defined a generation, Brad was attracted to music that could not be defined by a genre or a radio station’s call letters. He knew that music existed beyond labels and stereotypes. And by the age of 18, it paid off. Brad earned a scholarship to the prestigious Berklee College of Music in Boston.

While the scholarship was for his musical talent, Brad was, and continues to be fascinated by all aspects of music – from how it’s played to how it’s heard. So at Berklee, he enrolled in the Music Production and Engineering Program. He spent 4 years inside Berklee’s recording studios and synthesis labs, producing, recording, and mixing. His musical education included everything from Bach’s cello concertos and the Jazz of Miles Davis to rap’s Busta Rhymes and the outlaw country music of Johnny Cash. At Berklee, he played all styles of music including sold out performances of The Beatles Abbey Road, in it’s entirety, with a full orchestra, and with Epic Records artist Cami Gutierrez featuring Annie Clark (St Vincent) on bass guitar. After earning his Bachelor of Arts in Music in 2002, Brad returned to California, where he first found inspiration, and pursued his dreams in Hollywood.
Upon arriving in Los Angeles, Brad got his first job as an audio engineer on the film The Matrix Reloaded at Cherokee Studios. While he appreciated and enjoyed the experience he gained while working on the film, he knew he wanted more. Back in L.A., the familiar vibes of southern California were calling him. It was time to find a band.
In 2007, Brad joined the electro rock group Ultraviolet Sound with Sarah Hudson and Sami Diament (Brillz). Together they released an independent album entitled O.C.D.(Obsessive Compulsive Dancing) which garnered a total of 135,000 downloads and sponsorship from Adidas Originals. UVS played a 35 city US tour with Family Force 5, shows with DJ’s Kill The Noise, Treasure Fingers, Ludachrist, SebastiAN, Kavinsky and more. They also played several one off shows with Lady Gaga, a SXSW performance on a bill with Robyn, N.E.R.D, Katy Perry, and shows with many other top artists. Forever looking for new and more interesting ways to make music, in addition to playing with UVS, Brad produced a rap record with Limp Bizkit drummer John Otto for Jacksonville duo, Red Rock. He co-wrote and produced platinum single “Galaxy” with Richard Vission for Australian artists Jessica Mauboy and Stan Walker. He also played in bands such as Uh Huh Her, JC, The Memorials with Thomas Pridgen (Mars Volta), and OWL with bassist Chris Wyse (Ace Frehley, The Cult) and drummer Ryan Brown (Zappa).
PARIS IS CALLING
After nearly 10 years on the L.A. scene, a longtime friend and collaborator, Dorion Fiszel, introduced Brad to the French artist -M- (Matthieu Chedid). The meeting proved fortuitous. By the spring of 2012, Brad moved to Paris where he wrote, produced, recorded, mixed, and performed on -M-’s 5th studio album entitled ÎL. The album peaked at number four on France’s album chart and went double platinum, selling more than 200,000 records. The sale of the album was bolstered by the popularity of the single “Mojo” which Brad co-wrote and composed the classic opening guitar riff. The song was the second highest charted single for the French artist.
In the fall of 2012, Brad joined -M-‘s world tour. After 2 years of sold out shows and performing for over 500,000 fans, the tour earned the Victoire de La Musique, the French equivalent of a Grammy, for the best show and tour of 2014.
CREATE TO INNOVATE
However, replicating ÎL on stage required Brad to become a human orchestra. Enter the “Basstar”. In order for Brad to play and create multiple sounds simultaneously, he engineered the “Basstar” into it’s current form. The “Basstar” combines bass, guitar, midi controllerism, and an iPhone into one instrument. Brad is one of the first musicians to embrace controllerism and perform on a major tour with this kind of hybrid instrument. The “Basstar” demonstrates his creativity, innovative spirit, and his commitment to providing fans with the spontaneity of a live show while still meeting their studio album expectations.
While on tour, Brad met award winning engineer Charles Deschutter (-M-, Superbus, Pleymo, Ghinzu). Deschutter was working with iNA-iCH, a French experimental rock band, that was looking to add some fresh hard edge and efficiency to their sound. Never one to walk away from a challenge, Brad produced, re-vamped, and eventually joined the group in its new trio lineup. This new collaboration inspired him to create a second hybrid instrument called the “Octopus”. The “Octopus” combines guitar, bass, midi guitar, and controllerism. With the “Octopus”, Brad became the nucleus of the group. His driving basslines raucous guitar riffs, and speaker shredding provide the foundation from which the other members of the band shine.

$3B Penn Station overhaul draws interest of major construction, finance players
Wikipedia "Penn Station NYC main entrance" by Rickyrab at en.wikipedia. Licensed under CC BY-SA 3.0 via Commons -
A recent pre-bid tour of New York City’s Pennsylvania Station, in advance of what state officials say will be a $3 billion dollar overhaul, drew some of the biggest names in real estate, construction and finance, according to Crain’s New York Business.
Potential bidders and lenders, including Boston Properties, Tishman Speyer, Related Cos., Barclays and Macquarie Capital were on hand to view the station, which hosts an estimated 650,000 commuters a day. Major construction and architecture firms, including Tutor Perini, Skanska and Thornton Tomasetti, also toured the project, according to Crain's.
State agency Empire State Development Corp. has been charged with conducting the bidding process for the station’s renovation, as well as that of the historic Farley Post Office Building next door, which could eventually include a hotel and retail space.
In January, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced the Penn Station renovation as part of "the largest construction program in the modern history of the state," which includes a $22 billion investment in upstate infrastructure, a third track for the Long Island Rail Road’s Main Line, and a $1 billion expansion of the Javits Center, the city's primary convention venue.
Cuomo’s plan also includes the renovation of the Farley next door, which he said will be turned into a station concourse. Penn Station and the Farley post office together would be known as the Empire Station Complex.
Cuomo said the Penn Station project, when complete, will connect airports, commuter rail networks and roads with a larger regional area and will "make the state for the next 100 years." Officials also said in January that their goal was to attract private investment in return for the retail rights at the station.

The Atlanta Symphony: A Tradition in Jeopardy
December 1, 2014 September 10, 2014 by Timothy Judd
You could almost hear the classical music world’s collective groan on Sunday as the Atlanta Symphony became the latest orchestra to impose a lockout on its musicians. The lockout went into effect after both sides were unable to agree to a contract by an 11:59 Saturday deadline. This follows last year’s fifteen month long Minnesota Orchestra lockout, which resulted in the departure of the music director, executive director and numerous musicians.
At Adaptistration, Drew McManus provides excellent analysis of the situation, as well as some of the background:
In 2012, the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra (ASO) musicians were locked out after refusing to accept sharply concessionary terms. Approximately one month later, the musicians ostensibly caved and agreed to large reductions in wages, number of musicians employed, and a decline in weeks from 52 to 41. Two years later, that agreement has expired and the musicians have refused to accept an agreement that is, yet again, filled with additional concessionary terms even though the orchestra’s parent organization, Woodruff Arts Center (WAC), surpassed their most recent annual fundraising campaign and the ASO has trumpeted fundraising success to the tune of $5.5 million in corporate and anonymous donations since 2012.
Last week a leaked e mail, jointly written by Atlanta Symphony Music Director Robert Spano and Principal Guest Conductor Donald Runnicles, warned that the organization’s world-class artistic standing is in jeopardy. A tradition which took many years to build can be destroyed quickly. Leadership in past generations did not build the current great orchestra with a visionless, “bean counting” approach.
It’s easy to see the Atlanta situation in a broader context of fading local power and investment and the rise of a faceless globalism which guts communities and promotes private rather than public good…a world of consumers rather than citizens. Where is the equivalent of George Eastman in our current order? Atlanta, an “alpha-world city“, boasts the fourth largest concentration of Fortune 500 headquarters in the country. It is wealthy beyond measure. It will be incumbent upon the citizens of the Atlanta area to take ownership of their orchestra and demand that its proud tradition continues.
Atlanta’s Recorded History:
In 1967 Robert Shaw, founder of the lauded Robert Shaw Chorale, became music director of the Atlanta Symphony. His many recordings include the Faure and Durufle Requiems and Stravinsky’s Symphony of Psalms. Here he leads the orchestra and the Atlanta Symphony Chorus in an excerpt of Ralph Vaughan Williams’ Dona Nobis Pacem. Here is Brahms’ Schicksalslied, Op. 54 (Song of Destiny):
In the 1990s music director Yoel Levi made many excellent recordings with the Atlanta Symphony. Here is Samuel Barber’s Essay for Orchestra, No. 2, Op.17:
Here is Christopher Theofanidis’ Rainbow Body with current Music Director, Robert Spano:

Author Kane Dan Published on December 23, 2022 5 min read
John Goodman was born in Affton, Missouri, in the United States, on June 20, 1952. He will be 70 years old in 2022. He graduated from Affton High School, excelled in sports, and engaged himself in the performing arts. Following his high school graduation in 1970, he declined a football scholarship to attend Southwest Missouri State University. He spent a considerable amount of time partying and playing football, but an injury prevented him from pursuing a career in athletics.
He won a Golden Globe Award and The Conners, its sequel series. He has starred in films such as Raising Arizona, Barton Fink, The Big Lebowski, O Brother, Where Art Thou?, and Inside Llewyn Davis as a character actor and frequent collaborator with the Coen brothers. He also established himself as Pacha in The Emperor’s New Groove, James P. “Sulley” Sullivan in Disney/Monsters, Pixar’s Inc., “Baloo” in The Jungle Book 2, “George Wolfsbottom” in Clifford’s Big Movie, “Layton T. Montgomery” in Bee Movie, Eli “Big Daddy” LaBouff in The Princess and the Frog, and “Mr. Prendergast” in ParaNorman.
Goodman has also played lead roles in Always, King Ralph, The Babe, The Flintstones, Blues Brothers 2000, and 10 Cloverfield Lane, as well as supporting roles in True Stories, Storytelling, Beyond the Sea, Evan Almighty, Speed Racer, Pope Joan, The Artist, Argo, The Monuments Men, Trumbo, Patriots Day, Kong: Skull Island, and Atomic Blonde.

John Goodmanohn’s Weight Loss Journey
John Goodmanohn’s Weight Loss Secrets
John Goodmanohn has maintained his new lifestyle for over two years following his stunning 100-pound weight loss. Even though he began training six times per week, he recognizes that he is not in competition with Hollywood action stars. John Goodmanohn has adopted the Mediterranean diet and has lost over 100 pounds since he decided to take action against his growing obesity more than two years ago.
The weight loss journey of John Goodman has been an inspiration to many. Since 2014, the actor renowned for his role in Roseanne has maintained a weight loss of nearly 100 pounds. It all began when Goodman discovered he was pre-diabetic. He began his transformation by eliminating sugar and carbohydrates from his diet. He exercised with his trainer.
Goodman has stated that consistency has been the secret to his success. He does not deny himself the meals he enjoys, but he always adheres to his healthy lifestyle. The actor’s effort to lose weight illustrates how little adjustments may yield significant benefits. If you want to reduce weight, you should begin by easily modifying your food and exercise routine. You will like the change that is made.

John Goodmanohn lost 200 pounds after using the yo-yo diet, which helped him eliminate excess fat. After losing 60 to 70 pounds, he plummeted to 200 pounds.
John Goodmanohn began his day with fruit, ate fish, olive oil, veggies, almonds, and fruit for lunch, and increased his physical activity. John Goodmanohn’s weight reduction was largely attributable to his diet. Between 10,000 and 12,000 steps were taken by him in the morning. He was focused and careful not to overlook any of his jobs.
In a 2016 talk with Peter Travers, John Goodman highlighted the potential for food to induce addiction. The fact that he was such a gourmet and unable to conquer his food addiction exacerbated his problems. The yo-yo diet has helped him overcome his food addiction and rededicate himself to a healthy lifestyle. Because of his weight loss, he can now lead a healthy lifestyle.

He has enjoyed a long, disease-free life thanks to his weight loss. He cured his health problems due to controlling his junk food desires and engaging in regular exercise.
John Goodman began the Mediterranean Diet in 2011 by abstaining from alcoholic beverages. In 2018, he shed around 100 pounds and could also sustain his weight loss. Following a lifestyle diet for nine years may seem like a long time, but that’s it — the Mediterranean Diet is different – it’s not a diet, it’s a lifestyle.
The Mediterranean Diet enhances your gut microbiota, is anti-inflammatory, and is a celebration of food. According to Goodman’s trainer Mackie Shilstone, the Mediterranean diet is “heavily dependent upon olive oil.”
If a diet contains a significant amount of good fats, such as olive oil, these diets tend to be more sustainable since they leave individuals feeling full.
This reduces the likelihood that individuals would nibble between meals on less healthy foods. The fact that healthy fats keep you energized throughout the day is motivational for those on a mission to lose weight. John Goodmanohn’s gut microbiota composition improved when he began following the Mediterranean diet, although he may not have realized it.
A healthy microbiome in the gut contains beneficial microorganisms that help digestion and stimulate metabolism. When you practice “clean” eating by consuming real foods like vegetables, fruits, and legumes, the beneficial bacteria begin to flourish.
John Goodmanohn’s decision to abstain from alcohol also contributed to an improvement in his gut microbiota.
Nowadays, anti-inflammatory foods are a common topic of conversation. However, in August last year, Harvard Medical School issued an article titled “Foods That Fight Inflammation.”
They included tomatoes, olive oil, green leafy vegetables, almonds, fatty fish, and fruits like strawberries, cherries, blueberries, and oranges – all of which are characteristic components of the Mediterranean Diet!
You will gain weight even if you consume inflammatory meals.
You will lose weight by consuming anti-inflammatory meals.
In his diet, John Goodman placed a premium on sustainability. He has been able to adhere to the Mediterranean Diet since 2011 because it is a way of life diet that celebrates food.
The Mediterranean diet is unlike many other diets because it is a matter of enduring it while losing weight. Rather, it revolves around feelings of togetherness and the discovery of healthy foods, with happy people enjoying each other’s company around delicious morsels; it is also about longevity.

Thomas C. Wordin House
By Weston UlbirchFebruary 1, 2022January 23rd, 2023No Comments
Thomas C. Wordin House, Bridgeport, Connecticut:
At 1139 Fairfield Avenue is a Gilded Age mansion first built for Thomas Cooke Wordin in 1892. Wordin was a dealer of bonds and investment securities in New York City. His Connecticut home was originally known as “The Pines,” when it was completed by Bridgeport-based architect Joseph W. Northrop (who also designed Taylor Memorial Library in Milford and the Ingersoll House in New Haven). Northrop combined Victorian and Richardsonian Romanesque elements which included Portland brownstone around the base. The Wordin House was illustrated in “The American Architect and Building News, Vol. XLI, no. 921” (August 19, 1893). Nowadays the property is home to Teamsters Local no. 191.
A few words on Queen Anne architecture:
Queen Anne architecture is a style of Victorian architecture that was popular in the United States and the United Kingdom during the late 19th century. The style is characterized by its asymmetry, irregular shapes, and a mix of different architectural elements, including towers, turrets, gables, and dormers. Queen Anne homes are often made of wood and feature ornate decoration, including intricate woodwork, stained glass, and colorful paint schemes. The style is often associated with the Victorian era, a time of prosperity and growth in industrialization and urbanization.
The Queen Anne style is known for its emphasis on decorative elements and a lack of symmetry. The style features towers, turrets, bay windows, and a variety of gable and dormer shapes. The porches are often large and rambling, with decorative columns and spindlework. Queen Anne buildings often have a lot of ornamentation, such as bargeboards, finials, and other wooden ornamentation. The style is also known for its use of colorful paint schemes, often featuring several different colors on one building.
The style is named after Queen Anne of Great Britain, who reigned from 1702 to 1714, but it does not have much in common with the architecture of her time. The style was popularized in the United States by architects like Henry Hobson Richardson, and it is considered one of the most popular and influential architectural styles of the late 19th century.
