Another New Year's Day Hangover
2 6 دقائق
Everton 0 – 1 West Ham
It's all very "Everton" that this team exploded into a seven-match winning start to the season, took just a single point from matches against Southampton, Newcastle, Leeds and Burnley and then won four on the bounce in December, a month in which they were expected to struggle mightily as injuries to vital players bit and the fixtures began to pile up. Then, having won another four straight and with the chance to pull within one point of the top of the table, they go and lose at home to a David Moyes team for the first time.
It's absolutely maddening but, just like the Carabao Cup quarter-final against Manchester United — and, indeed the League game against the same team in November, this defeat exposed the shortcomings in quality and consistency with this Everton squad. It also didn't help that it was New Year's Day — Everton have now lost their last five matches played on the first of the year. Different managers, different players, seemingly the same mindset.
One of these sides was playing its third match in the space of six days; the other had had a fixture scheduled for Monday postponed, giving them a six-day period for recuperation and, you would have thought, the energy to go all out in search of three points that would have represented a fifth League victory in a row. It wasn't so much that you couldn't tell which was which — Everton didn't necessarily exhibit any more fatigue than West Ham — but Carlo Ancelotti's men were frustratingly cagey and unadventurous for long periods and simply inept going forward, a posture that belied the impressive run they were on coming into the game.
Credit to his progress this season, the loss of Alex Iwobi's drive and unpredictable creativity down the right was a big miss and despite making such a positive impact off the bench at Sheffield United, Bernard wasn't able to match it. The Brazilian had his moments, the best of which yielded one of only two shots on target Everton would manage all evening and a decent save from Darren Randolph at the end of the first half, but on the whole he was representative of a lack of cutting edge that plagued the home side for almost the entire game.
Bernard has never been a model of consistency so it was the ineffectiveness of his compatriot, Richarlison, that was more worrying. The 23-year-old returned after missing the trip to Bramall Lane under the concussion protocol, but after an iffy 50-odd minutes in that cup tie against United, he had another match to forget down the flanks.
Richarlison has always defied categorisation — neither an out-and-out striker nor a true winger with genuinely tricky dribbling skills, he's established his career in England as a wide forward using his power and unpredictability to beat opponents but when he is effectively marked or playing without a natural full-back behind him, he cut a very frustrated and unproductive figure. He seems to have fallen into a rut where he believes just running at defenders is enough but over and over he would just end up sloppily giving the ball away.
Without either of those wide men able to influence the game against a Moyes team that sat back and deprived them of the space they enjoy hitting teams in transition, Everton found it tough going but they made things immeasurably worse for themselves with painfully slow tempo and a tendency to recycle the ball backwards time and time again. They compounded that with some very sloppy distribution at times — Mason Holgate, restored to centre-half to accommodate Seamus Coleman's return and to give Michael Keane a rest, was a notable offender in this regard in the first half while Tom Davies's pass accuracy went south in the second.
Picking up from his own laudable display in south Yorkshire, Davies had a tidy enough first half in the "Allan role" but was let down by a lack of movement ahead of him and, like Gylfi Sigurdsson who ran around a lot trying to close down passing avenues for Moyes's team but ultimately offered precious little creativity, it left one pining for the day that Ancelotti is able to select something closer to his first-choice starting XI. The young midfielder didn't play badly but it was another performance that underlined the fact that — again, like Sigurdsson — he simply isn't good enough for a side with Champions League aspirations.
It's understandable that a side that is still make-shift in places wasn't able to play free-flowing football but the lack of intensity that was so prevalent during that poor run of results between the defeat at St Mary's and the draw at Turf Moor that was so disappointing. Teams can overwhelm their opponents at times by just upping the tempo and putting them under the cosh but apart from some fleeting moments after James Rodriguez and André Gomes stepped off the bench to significantly improve things, Everton were the epitome of passive.
West Ham had a momentary scare in the sixth minute when Craig Dawson diverted a low Sigurdsson cross towards his own goal, forcing Randolph to reverse direction to pounce on it and one occasion — it might have been the only time in the game that West Ham's back line didn't repel anything that was delivered aerially into the box, thereby completely negating the Blues' threat at set-pieces — where Dominic Calvert-Lewin got his head to a corner but it went well over but otherwise there was nothing of note from Ancelotti's side until the 45th minute.
That's when Bernard brought a headed clearance from another corner down on his chest and rattled a half-volley towards the bottom corner but Randolph parried it behind to preserve parity going into half-time.
For their part, West Ham had shown slightly more penetration, better ability to negotiate the press gone closer to breaking the deadlock in the first period. Jarrod Bowen and Tomas Souček had had headed opportunities in front of goal but failed to get enough purchase on the ball while Aaron Cresswell had flashed the ball across Jordan Pickford's goal with half and hour gone.
Then, after the home side had started the second half with a bit more purpose and energy, the Hammers almost caught them out with a 55th-minute free-kick where Declan Rice found too much space down Everton's right flank and whipped the ball across the six-yard box. Five minutes later, Pickford was forced to bat away a Cresswell free-kick with a strong right hand and Pablo Fornals tested the keeper with another more tame effort and then planted a free header well wide a few minutes after that.
Moments of incisiveness were all too rare from Everton but Bernard and Coleman combined well in the 63rd minute, although the Irishman's shot didn't unduly test the keeper and it would be the Brazilian's last involvement before he was withdrawn in a double substitution that saw Rodriguez and Gomes come on and Sigurdsson also leave the fray.
The positive change was almost ruined by Coleman's ill-advised back-header that gifted the ball to West Ham and their own sub, Michail Antonio, was played in only to be foiled by Pickford but Everton improved markedly after that going forward, albeit without being able to carve their opponents open. The removal of a visibly frustrated Calvert-Lewin who once again fed off scraps in favour of Cenk Tosun was a bizarre move that didn't help and it smacked of "shop window" rather than any belief the Turk could win the game.
The Blues' forward momentum forced a couple of decent dead-ball situations wide on the left but they came to nothing while West Ham finally made the breakthrough in what had become a disappointingly even contest. Pickford did well to parry away Souček's 86th-minute shot but Cresswell fired the rebound back into the box, Yerry Mina dangled a leg back to divert it straight into Souček's path and the Czech slammed it past Pickford.
As Ancelotti remarked after the match, this represented a point dropped from Everton rather than two because, simply put, his team didn't do nearly enough to win. It was a pretty dreadful performance at a time when they had allowed fans to dare to dream a little again at what kind of surprise the Toffees might be able to pull off this season.
In the wider context, sitting four points off the summit on New Year's Day is a lot better than many would have predicted but the congestion at the top of the Premier League table means that Everton are only three points above 11th place and are, therefore, as much in the hunt for Europe as West Ham who moved to 26 points with this victory.
While Ancelotti has significantly played down the possibility of Everton adding to their squad this month, there is hope of better performances on the horizon now that James is regaining fitness, Digne is getting close to a return and Allan should be back by the end of the month. The lesson appears to be, however, that as hard as it it may be, it's pointless getting too high when things are good with this Everton squad the way it is and too low when results aren't going according to plan. Inconsistency remains the watchword until further quality can be added.

What is The Saint?
The Saint is St Andrews' oldest and largest student publication, both in print and online. Founded in 1997, The Saint publishes a 40-page print newspaper – the only one of its kind in St Andrews – every two weeks during term time, which is given out to the students and residents of the town free of charge. Our seven sections; News, Viewpoint, Money, Events, Features, Arts & Culture and Sports, cover everything of importance to the students of St Andrews. They are in supported by our Photography, Illustration, Video and Business teams.
The Saint is a nationally recognised publication, and a recipient of accolades from the Herald Student Media Awards and SPA (Student Publication Association) awards. Most recently, we were shortlisted for the SPA's Publication of the Year award, selected from over 90 different student publications across the UK. The Saint is St Andrews' most established and trusted news source.
Who makes up The Saint's team?
The Saint's main team is made up over 50 people. From the most casual writer right up to the editor, they are all full-time students who are also studying for degrees while running the paper. This helps ensure that the paper is run by students, for students.
The editor is the person in charge of what appears in the paper, commissioning articles, controlling the vast team of contributors and scheduling each of the 10 issues per year.
They are supported by a team of deputy editors who helped to manage the paper, and section editors, who are in charge of all content, both online and in print, for their section. They are supported by deputy section editors, who act as the paper's most regular writers.
The Saint's business manager runs the Business team, and is responsible for securing the advertising that ensure we can print the paper.
We also have a web editor who coordinates our online team, running our social media coverage and maintaining our website, which recently underwent a major redesign.
Our paper also depends on the work of our photography, illustration, video and design teams – who help make sure the presentation of our articles, both online and in print, is maintained to the highest possible standard.
Any St Andrews student can write for The Saint. You can pitch one piece via email and then never write another article, or you can get involved as a full member of our committee and apply to become a deputy section editor – and anything in between.
During the semester, each section of the paper holds regular meetings to discuss stories. You're always welcome to come along and hear the articles the editor is looking for or suggest ideas of your own. If you don't know when the meeting is, just drop the relevant section editor an email.
Contact details for all sections can be found on the editorial team page. If you're not sure who to email, just send a message to editors Andrew Sinclair and Olivia Gavoyannis.
We will also be opening applications for deputy section editors shortly after our first issue of the semester – if you're interested in getting more deeply involved with student journalism this is where to start. Most of our senior editorial board started off in these positions.
How will joining The Saint benefit me?
If you're looking to go into a career in media, communications or journalism (or even if you're not!), getting involved with The Saint is excellent way to build up your CV. Nowadays, many professional journalists get their start in university papers. We think it's the best way to prepare oneself for the market. Past students who have worked for The Saint and its predecessor paper, The Chronicle, have gone on to a variety of successful careers as journalists at respected institutions such as the BBC, Press Association, The Times and The Sunday Times and even in Downing Street, as Director of Communications for the Prime Minister.

CD Projekt RED Announces That Cyberpunk 2077 Has Officially Gone Gold
Brianna Reeves Monday, October 05, 2020
Yes, you read that headline correctly. CD Projekt RED's long-awaited Cyberpunk 2077 has officially gone gold. As such, the title is feature complete and ready to be printed on disc. This no doubt counts as a glorious day for the studio and fans, given that such news seemingly guarantees there are no more delays in store.
The developer shared the news earlier this morning in a celebratory post on Twitter. Said post is complete with a photo of Keanu Reeves' Johnny Silverhand holding onto none other than a gold disc. See the tweet in question linked below:
Cyberpunk 2077 has gone gold!
See you in Night City on November 19th! pic.twitter.com/s6U266Y1fp
— Cyberpunk 2077 (@CyberpunkGame) October 5, 2020
CD Projekt RED first announced Cyberpunk 2077 all the way back in 2012. For several years thereafter, however, details about the RPG were kept under wraps. But full development on the project didn't begin until after The Witcher 3's Blood and Wine expansion rolled out in 2016. Thus, Cyberpunk 2077 officially resurfaced during E3 2018, wherein the team confirmed the title's first-person details, basic premise, and so on.
In the two years since its resurgence, CD Projekt has delayed the title more than once. The first delay pushed Cyberpunk 2077 from April 2020 to September 2020. Another push moved the game to it current November release date, which certainly seems as though it will be met this time around.
Cyberpunk 2077 hits store shelves next month on November 19th on the PS4, PC, and Xbox One. Those who purchase a copy on current-gen will receive access to a free upgrade for their respective next-gen platform.

Tee Grizzley taps Lil Durk for new single "White Lows Off Designer"
The two join forces once again.
By Regina Cho
Tee Grizzley has tapped in with Lil Durk once again for their newest collab single "White Lows Off Designer." This is certainly not the first time the two have joined forces, and they even have an entire project together, the Bloodas mixtape from 2017.
Most recently, Tee Grizzley dropped off a two-part saga with "Robbery" and "Robbery Part Two" within the last two months. Last year, he liberated his latest body of work The Smartest, which saw 17 tracks and additional assists from Hit-Boy, Big Sean, Meek Mill, Lil Baby, Lil Keed, Queen Naija, and the Detroit Youth Choir. He also released the heartfelt, emotionally charged "Late Night Calls," a message to his recently re-incarcerated brother Baby Grizzley.
In 2020, he also made an appearance on Berner's newest project Russ Bufalino: The Quiet Don on the track "R.I.P., and pulled up for the music video. Additionally, he lobbed an assist to $tupid Young on his track "Wit A Sticc," to Jackboy on "Married To My Enemies."
Just before Christmas, Lil Durk graced the world with his latest project The Voice, which boasts 16 cuts and additional appearances from 6LACK, Young Thug, Booka600, and King Von. The project went on to land at No. 5 on the Billboard 200 thanks to 57,000 album equivalent units sold during its first week of release. The following month, Durk then liberated a deluxe version of Just Cause Y'all Waited 2 with seven additional cuts.
That boost was able to propel the overall body of work to the No. 2 spot via an additional 43,000 album equivalent units sold. More recently, he assisted Coi Leray on the remix of her viral hit "No More Parties" and he also recreated the most iconic Kanye West moments in his "Kanye Krazy" video.
Be sure to press play on Tee Grizzley's brand new track with Lil Durk "White Lows Off Designer" down below.

In Effort to Restore Confidence, CalPERS Adds Risk Management Officer and Whistleblower Helpline
Following allegations of influence peddling at the nation's largest public pension fund, CalPERS has revamped its governance policies, and its latest reforms are designed to help better manage risk and restore accountability.
(September 19, 2010) — The Sacramento-based $205.5 billion California Public Employees' Retirement System (CalPERS) recently announced two significant reforms designed to restore confidence – the establishment of a Senior Level Enterprise Risk Management Office and Enterprise Chief Risk Officer, and the launch of a new Ethics Helpline to identify fraud and waste.
"Recent events on Wall Street, pension fraud in this state, and even allegations of wrongdoing at CalPERS have taught us that managing risk and ensuring accountability across the enterprise are critical to our effectiveness today and tomorrow," George Diehr, who served as Acting President of the Board at the pension fund's September Board meeting, said in a statement.
Those recent events include allegations of influence peddling by placement agents, or middlemen who help money managers get pension-fund business. In May, California's attorney general filed a civil lawsuit alleging the state's pension fund officials Federico Buenrostro Jr. and Alfred R. Villalobos participated in a scheme to obtain business for investment firms, providing pension officials with luxury trips and other gifts.
"It's a new day at CalPERS, and these additional tools for managing CalPERS are being added to a very important list of efforts we have undertaken in the last 12 months to restore confidence, integrity, and accountability to all that we do," said Diehr.
Until a recruitment search is completed for a new chief risk officer, the board has named Larry Jensen, assistant executive officer, to serve as interim. The chief risk officer will report to Anne Stausboll, CalPERS CEO, and the system's board. While the existing investment risk management team will remain separate from the newly created office, they will work in partnership. The existing team is led by Farouki Majeed, senior investment officer for the asset allocation/risk management unit, and Richard Roth, senior portfolio manager in charge of risk management, who both report to Joseph A. Dear, chief investment officer.
Chief Executive Stausboll added in a statement: "We strive to be the very best at risk management. We will ensure that we ask the important questions, challenge our own assumptions, and hope to become the best at utilizing this discipline to understand and manage threats that could hamper our ability to deliver the best services to our members and employers."
According to a release issued by the largest public employee pension fund in the US, the newly created Helpline will enable the fund to receive tips, concerns, and information regarding possible instances of wrongdoing – including possible allegations of fraud, waste, abuse, conflicts of interests, safety violations, harassment, or other misdeeds.
Additional outlined changed include:
Co-sponsorship of legislation (AB 1743) that will require placement agents to be subject to strict gift limits, campaign contribution prohibitions, and be prohibited from receiving compensation contingent upon any CalPERS investment decision;
Tough rules for communication between Board Members and staff about investment proposals;
Authority to discipline Board Members who violate policy; The pursuit of information and a special review to ensure CalPERS has not been victimized by placements agents; and
A ban on gifts to employees from business partners and potential business partners
Earlier this month, investment chief Joe Dear said during a pep talk to more than two dozen colleagues at CalPERS that the only way out of the pension's mess — the loss of $70 billion in the credit wipeout of 2008 and 2009 and controversy of influence peddling — is to take more risk. "We can take control of our destiny," said Dear, according to Bloomberg. "We can make concrete improvements. Let's get to work."
The news service reported that Dear is embracing investments in private equity, emerging nations, hedge funds and public works projects to achieve market-beating profits, as opposed to investing in safe bets, such as US Treasury bonds. Additionally, he will request the pension's board of administration to trade exchange-traded funds and derivatives more aggressively than it does now.

Illinois volleyball sweeps Rutgers in Big Ten home opener
Illinois opposite hitter Naya Crittenden gets ready to spike the ball during the match against Arkansas at Huff Hall on August 26. The Illini won 3-0.
Austin Yattoni
By James Boyd, Staff writer
Filed under Sports, Top Stories, Uncategorized, Volleyball, Women's Sports
The Illinois volleyball team returned home after nine games on the road, and the team did not disappoint its home crowd with a win over Rutgers in straight sets.
The victory extended the Illini's win streak to seven.
Head coach Kevin Hambly felt that his team did not play up to the competition, compared to the team's victory against Purdue Wednesday.
"'It's disappointing. I just hate when we give in to human nature," Hambly said. "But the fact that we jumped out early, and (Rutgers) was making a bunch of errors, we just saw the team, the whole team just relax and give in just like, 'Oh we can win this.'"
Rutgers scored the first point of the match because of an attack error by sophomore Ali Bastianelli, but the Illini reeled off eight straight points to take a commanding 9-1 lead. The Scarlet Knights fought back to close the lead down to two points, but that's as close as they would get to victory.
A kill from senior Naya Crittenden and an attack error by Rutgers' Cole Trimble gave Illinois a 25-18 victory in the first set.
In the second, Illinois again jumped out to an early lead, and although the team defeated Rutgers by 10 points, the Illini once more allowed the Scarlet Knights to hang around. Senior Michelle Strizak had three kills in the set.
The second set ended with three straight attack errors by Rutgers.
"We all learned a lot in the (Purdue) match and that was really good for us," Crittenden said. "Tonight, even for myself personally, this wasn't what we wanted. This wasn't the way we really wanted to play."
The Scarlet Knights did not let the Illini jump out to an early lead. The set went back and forth with 10 ties, but ultimately, Rutgers would leave Huff Hall with a straight sets loss.
Illinois squeezed out a four-point victory behind seven kills from freshmen Jacqueline Quade. The outside hitter led the way for the Illini with 12 kills on the night.
"The passing wasn't going as fluid as we were hoping," Strizak said. "I think we kind of found it and then we took a break, and then kind of lost it. We kind of lost focus there in the third game."
Illinois is now 2-0 in the Big Ten and will face defending national champion Nebraska at home Wednesday. Hambly said he expects his team to respond to the challenge.
"I think they're going to be more fired up," Hambly said. "They know what it takes."

Hall of Fame Class of 1989
Bio Content
Information submitted in a nomination letter to the U.S. National Ski Hall of Fame by Tom Corcoran in 1989.
H. Devereaux "Dev" Jennings whole life revolved around skiing and the mountains: ski racer, ski official, ski retailer, designed and manufacturer of ski apparel and veteran of the famous 10th Mountain Division.
H. Devereaux Jennings grew up in Salt Lake City, Utah and learned to ski there. From 13 to 18 years of age he was a very promising young racer who was invited to participate and raced in the most prestigious national ski races of the pre-war era (there was no junior class): the National Championships, Harriman Cup, Silver Belt, etc.
His promising racing career was interrupted by World War II. When Dev turned 18 in 1942, he enlisted in the 10th Mountain Division, serving first as a ski and rock climbing instructor and later as a combat rifle squad leader through the worst of the Italian fighting. Senator Bob Dole was Dev's platoon leader and their friendship continued after the war, Jennings later becoming an officer of the10th Mountain Division Alumni Association.
From 1946 to 1948, he skied on the Aspen Ski Team, Colorado State University and University of Utah Ski Teams. He skied constantly in the top three places in collegiate and National events. In 1947, Jennings skied well enough to be named to the 1948 U.S. Olympic Team which competed at St. Moritz, Switzerland.
In 1948, Jennings founded and was president of Sporthaus in Salt Lake City, Utah. It was the first specialty ski shop in the country. Skiing was still a cult sport where you bought skis without edges, selected the edge you wanted and found a shop that knew how to rout and mount your edges. There were only a handful of shops around the country that really knew what they were doing. Dev's Sporthaus was one of them – with a national reputation. He later opened another Sporthaus shop in Salt Lake City and one in Westwood Village, California. He remained actively involved with the shops until 1962.
During Dev's 14-year involvement with Sporthaus stores, he was also a ski rep, importer, manufacturer, wholesaler and distributor of many products, some with the Sporthaus label. He manufactured and distributed a number of ski products that he himself designed: the Davos Duster Cap and Sporthaus Pants were great favorites in their day and widely recognized. His Sporthaus checked-gingham, pullover, raglan-sleeved shirt was a classic in its time. He designed the first colored skis, the Blue Mothers, which won a lot of western races and turned a lot of heads. He always donated his ski products generously to the U.S. Ski Team.
Dev was always interested in helping young children become ski racers. He coached divisional teams at a number of Junior Nationals and, in the early 1950s, founded SCATS (Ski Competition and Training Society) in Salt Lake City. Junior racers paid $10 a year and coaching was provided every Saturday by former U.S. Ski Team members and guest coaches. The program produced some of Utah's best racers.
The 1950s saw Jennings as Chief of Course for the North American Championships, leading up to Assistant Chief of Course under Willy Schaeffler at the 1960 Olympics at Squaw Valley, California.
Jennings moved to New Hampshire in 1970 to serve as Executive Director of Waterville Valley Associates and is affiliated with the New England Ski Museum at Franconia, New Hampshire.
An effective voice and proponent for the sport of skiing, Dev was highly regarded by his peers within the sport and the ski industry. He saw the sport of ski industry grow and mature and was an active participant and influential in almost every aspect of the sport.
H. Devereaux Jennings was elected to the U.S. National Ski Hall of Fame in 1989.

Comparing forests across climates and biomes: Qualitative assessments, reference forests and regional intercomparisons
Salk CF, Frey U, & Rusch H (2014). Comparing forests across climates and biomes: Qualitative assessments, reference forests and regional intercomparisons. PLoS ONE 9 (4): e94800. DOI:10.1371/journal.pone.0094800.
Comparing forests across climates and biomes.PDF - Published Version
Communities, policy actors and conservationists benefit from understanding what institutions and land management regimes promote ecosystem services like carbon sequestration and biodiversity conservation. However, the definition of success depends on local conditions. Forests' potential carbon stock, biodiversity and rate of recovery following disturbance are known to vary with a broad suite of factors including temperature, precipitation, seasonality, species' traits and land use history. Methods like tracking over-time changes within forests, or comparison with "pristine" reference forests have been proposed as means to compare the structure and biodiversity of forests in the face of underlying differences. However, data from previous visits or reference forests may be unavailable or costly to obtain. Here, we introduce a new metric of locally weighted forest intercomparison to mitigate the above shortcomings. This method is applied to an international database of nearly 300 community forests and compared with previously published techniques. It is particularly suited to large databases where forests may be compared among one another. Further, it avoids problematic comparisons with old-growth forests which may not resemble the goal of forest management. In most cases, the different methods produce broadly congruent results, suggesting that researchers have the flexibility to compare forest conditions using whatever type of data is available. Forest structure and biodiversity are shown to be independently measurable axes of forest condition, although users' and foresters' estimations of seemingly unrelated attributes are highly correlated, perhaps reflecting an underlying sentiment about forest condition. These findings contribute new tools for large-scale analysis of ecosystem condition and natural resource policy assessment. Although applied here to forestry, these techniques have broader applications to classification and evaluation problems using crowdsourced or repurposed data for which baselines or eternal validations are not available.

Book Review: Hellfire by Leesa Gazi
April 21, 2021 April 21, 2021 Deepika5 Comments
In my last post — a review of Ocean Vuong's On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous — I wrote, "If the fences are eventually lifted, where will we go from there?" Strangely, Leesa Gazi's Hellfire, translated from the Bengali by Shabnam Nadiya, starts from there. Lovely gets out of the house for the first time all by herself. She is 40. As the book begins, the narrator tells us, "Getting out of the house, however, was a task as hard and complicated as crossing the pulserat, that final bridge of the afterlife spanning the fires of hell." Hellfire answers the questions — why did Lovely take 40 years to do something that's as unassuming as stepping out of the house by herself? Does Lovely cross the bridge? Or does the fire engulf her? If Lovely crosses the bridge, is she the same person when she reaches the other end? Or will she be permanently marked by Freedom?
Leesa Gazi's Hellfire is 198 pages long. The rich, layered story of Farida Khanam and her daughters Lovely and Beauty unfolds like a fast-paced psychological thriller in those measly 198 pages. I keep harking back to the number of pages because despite being ridiculously short, the narrative bursts forth like water that gushes out just after a dam collapses. There is real force in Gazi's storytelling, and Nadiya's translation ensures that the force is not impeded.
For 40 years, Farida Khanam has always kept Lovely and Beauty on her watch. For children raised by Asian mothers, being under the constant supervision of their mothers is an everyday thing. But Farida Khanam stalks her own children. For instance, when Lovely and Beauty sit in their classroom, Farida Khanam watches them from their balcony that's right opposite to their school. When they go out, she accompanies them. Every contact with the outside world is severed. The daughters' privacy is limited to their bedrooms. The house is their bubble. They age, arrive well into middle-age, without experiencing the conventional milestones, trials, heartbreaks, joys, and triumphs of life. A golden cage is a cage all the same.
The reason why Farida Khanam keeps her daughter under lock and key is the story of what patriarchal societies do to women. We meet the important women in Farida Khanam's life, and how they transfer their trauma to her. We see how they make Farida Khanam a woman of steel and a woman who cannot see the pain and damage she inflicts on her daughters. We meet the not-so-important men in her life, and how they are victims of patriarchy themselves, and how women continue to bear men's cross. Gazi narrates each character's story with the unwavering confidence of a creator who knows about every fibre of her characters' being. But the most fascinating aspect of Gazi's narration is how it's impossible to guess the path the story would take despite knowing the characters and their motivation. In my copy, the last line of the story is the last line in the book itself. There are no acknowledgements, and notes about the author and the translator after the story ends. So, I was left reeling in shock when I read the last line. The punch in the gut was so sudden that I was breathless for a brief moment.
Hellfire is wild and disturbing, and it's incredible and important. What makes it outstanding though is how the horror is omnipresent and surreal. Imagine this — you are ensconced in your bedroom, but the clouds suddenly become dark, and terrifying thoughts cross your mind. You just can't say what's bothering you, but you can feel a sense of impending doom. The horror that Hellfire holds is quite like what Shirley Jackson wrote in We Have Always Lived In The Castle. Nothing is explicit. In Hellfire, there is no mention of physical violence too. But the terror rises out of the characters' realisation that how seemingly normal things are on the surface, and how just a chink is enough to see how deeply ruined they are.

The way we understand energy in B.C. needs to change
Merran Smith | May 29, 2019
There's a good chance that powerful ministers from across the globe are having important conversations in Vancouver as you read this.
If that's news to you, it's because the annual Clean Energy Ministerial is not a public event, but it is an influential one, in which the world's energy ministers and clean energy industry leaders gather, share ideas, and make pledges. This year, the conversation is happening in Vancouver, having previously been held in cities such as London, Beijing, and San Francisco.
It is, in short, the time of the year when the world comes together to discuss a global clean energy transition that is already well underway.
As for housing it in Vancouver, it fits nicely with the city's green brand and climate efforts. It also gives new meaning to the phrase "fireside chat." For a few hundred kilometres north and east of these conversations, fires are literally raging, in Alberta displacing thousands of Canadians from their homes. As of Tuesday, guests of the ministerial could see the smoke on the horizon from the Vancouver Convention Centre.
It is still nearly a month before summer officially starts.
Last year was B.C.'s worst ever for wildfires; 2017, the second worst.
The energy transition is happening because it must, as we are feeling firsthand—on the fiery frontlines of climate change.
But the way in which that transition will happen—through Canada's clean energy sector—is not well understood. It's not well understood because it isn't like energy as we've known it, energy as a fossil fuel business. The goals and structure of clean energy are fundamentally different.
After all, transitioning our energy system to better fight climate change isn't just about producing more of the clean stuff—like hydro, wind, and solar power. This is especially true in B.C., where nearly all of our electricity is already renewable, thanks to the dozens of dams that power our province with rushing water.
But make no mistake: there's still much work to be done in B.C. That's because the transition to clean energy is a system change. For one, it's about moving more things onto that system—electric cars, buses, trucks, equipment, and home heating are topics that are front and centre at this week's ministerial. Just as critically, it's about using electricity less wastefully.
The way we've so often talked about energy in the past—in terms of endless expansion, something to be shipped overseas—does not provide a valuable framework for analyzing clean energy.
Such was the motivation of Clean Energy Canada's new report, Missing the Bigger Picture, which found that 298,000 Canadians now work in the clean energy sector—with just over 32,000 of those in B.C. The sector's value, meanwhile, has been growing rapidly, by 4.8% a year, well ahead of the rest of the Canadian economy (3.6%).
It's jobs in the city too. In 2019, 12 Canadian startups were named on the Global Cleantech 100, a list of the world's 100 most promising cleantech companies. Half of those, six, were in Metro Vancouver. We knew Vancouver is a tech powerhouse—it may also be a cleantech powerhouse.
That's a great news story that wasn't making the headlines it should have been. Simply because Canadians didn't know. Simply because no one had thoroughly defined the sector or raised awareness.
That said, in defining the clean energy sector with our research partner, Navius Research, we did not invent the wheel. Calgary Economic Development, for example, had commissioned similar work with similar parameters, as have others.
But what's clear is that the clean energy sector is not just the fossil fuel sector with a clean coat of paint. It represents a broad range of jobs and businesses helping make our energy system contribute less to climate change. Whether that's switching coal to wind power, making homes waste less heat, building electric cars, or getting people out of traffic jams and onto SkyTrains.
It is a sector defined by a goal: preventing climate catastrophe.
And as it continues to grow, Canadians need to see who's benefiting, and where the jobs are. If no one tracks an economic transition and no one tells the story of what's being created, the status quo will always feel safer—even when it's not.
Even when we're breathing smoke

How 'efficient' can the HRC really be if it restricts civil society contributions to its work?
Joint statement for HRC44 virtual meeting of the HRC President with NGOs
We acknowledge the challenges confronting OHCHR, member states and CSOs as we attempt to resume critical human rights work while taking seriously health risks associated with COVID-19. We appreciate the efforts made to overcome these challenges, including by increasing remote and online participation. We would like to bring to your attention some of the barriers to participation we have experienced in this session.
43rd session of the Human Rights Council, 30 June 2020
Delays in finalising the session dates and modalities, and subsequent changes in the programme of work, reduced the time CSOs had to prepare and engage meaningfully. This has a disproportionate impact on CSOs not based in Geneva, those based in different time zones and those with less capacity to monitor the live proceedings.
A number of organisations, including ourselves, experienced difficulties in meeting the technical specifications for uploading video statements. Increased technical support from OHCHR and flexibility in video and audio formats, and in allowing CSOs to change between video statements and in person delivery without losing speaking slots, could enable more organisations to make video statements now and for future sessions.
The cancelation of general debates this session as an 'efficiency measure' has restricted the few avenues for civil society to raise issues and be certain to get a speaking slot. This is especially problematic for a session in which civil society participation is so affected by COVID-19 measures and modalities. How 'efficient' and human rights-based can the Council really be if it restricts civil society contributions to its work?
Remote participation in informal negotiations has been another challenge, and dependent on the willingness of the core group to facilitate such participation (e.g. through Zoom as was the case for some informals), and on whether the UNOG phone and listen live systems were operational. Several informals were not live streamed despite being public meetings. Time zone differences also effectively exclude organizations located in Asia, the Pacific and the Americas, especially from informal negotiations which can only be listened to in real time (when possible). In addition, access to the resolution texts was not consistently ensured by core groups for those attending the informals in person and without access to e-delegate, CSOs participating remotely had no possibility of accessing the texts.
We call on the Secretariat to consider the following measures:
Enable speakers to change the mode of statement delivery between video and in-person, after registration, without losing the speaking order.
Provide technical support and more flexible format requirements for video statements
Provide CSOs with access to e-delegates to enable access to resolution texts.
Ensure all informals are live-streamed and allow for remote participation and monitoring by CSOs.
We call on Member States to:
◾ Mandate and allocate sufficient funding for the Secretariat to provide closed-captioning, sign language interpretation and other accessibility measures for all video statements and Council meetings as a system-wide measure, as noted in HRC Decision 19/119;
◾ Reintroduce general debates in June 2021 and all other future HRC sessions.

Public Enemies Trailer
Follow Johnny Depp
Watch the trailer for Public Enemies.
Public Enemies was a name given to bank robbers and some of the most wanted criminals during the 1930's depression. John Herbert Dillinger was arguably the most wanted man in the United States, he learnt his trade from some of the best bank robbers in the country and went on to rob dozens of banks with his newly formed group of bandits 'The Dillinger Gang'.
Dillinger formed an image for himself as one of the quickest bank robbers ever known, known by the state as a trouble maker and a dangerous criminal, some of the public viewed him much differently, as a modern Robin Hood character. The fresh law force called The FBI named Dillinger Public Enemy Number One, and made it their mission to capture him.
Starring: Johnny Depp, Marion Cotillard, Christian Bale, Billy Crudup, Channing Tatum, Leelee Sobieski, Emilie de Ravin, Giovanni Ribisi, Stephen Dorff, Rory Cochrane, John Ortiz, Lili Taylor and Stephen Graham.

Irish To Play Host To Niagara University For First Time At Compton Family Ice Arena
Notre Dame, Ind. –
Notre Dame Hockey Game Notes
Niagara Hockey Game Notes
For the first time, the University of Niagara hockey program will visit the University of Notre Dame when the two teams get together this weekend for a pair of games at the Compton Family Ice Arena.
The two programs have met once before, back in the 2000-01 season when they participated in the Maverick Stampede held at Nebraska Omaha. The tournament featured Nebraska Omaha, Boston College, Notre Dame and Niagara. The Irish dropped the opener to Boston College in a 4-1 decision and then met the Purple Eagles in the third-place game. Aaron Gill, Chad Chipchase and David Inman scored for the Irish but Niagara got the equalizer from Chris Sebastian at 9:33 for the tying goal. Jeremiah Kimento stopped 30 of 33 shots in goal as the teams played 65 minutes to tie at 3-3 and share third place.
This weekend, the Irish and Purple Eagles will meet at 7:35 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 24 in a game that will be streamed live at NBCSports.com. Saturday's tilt will see the puck drop at 7:05 p.m. with the game televised live by the NBC Sports Network with NHL voice Dave Strader calling the shots and former NHL star Anson Carter handling the analysis "Inside the Glass."
Notre Dame is off to a 2-2-0 start following last weekend's sweep of Lake Superior State while Niagara is 0-4-0 after dropping a home-and-home series with Robert Morris University.
NIAGARA 101
Niagara University is a Catholic university in the Vincentian tradition, located in the town of Lewiston in Niagara County, New York and is run by the Congregation of the Mission. Niagara has 3,300 undergraduate students in 50 academic programs. Approximately half of the students are residents, while the other half commutes from the surrounding area. The college is known as a liberal arts school, but offers programs in technical and pre-professional disciplines as well.
Originally founded by the Congregation of the Mission in 1856 as Our Lady of Angels Seminary, the school moved from Buffalo to its current location on May 1, 1857. After 26 years on its new campus, The College and Seminary of Our Lady of Angels officially changed its name to Niagara University on August 7, 1883. The University is still run by the Vincentian Fathers. All of Niagara's 26 presidents, including its current president, Rev. James J. Maher, C.M., have been Vincentian priests.
Undergraduate students are able to choose an area of study in any of Niagara's four academic colleges. In addition to the College of Arts and Sciences, College of Business, College of Education, and the College of Hospitality and Tourism Management, NU's Academic Exploration Program allows first and second year students take courses in various departments before deciding on a major.
The Niagara University Athletics Department sponsors 18 Division I sports. The Purple Eagles compete in the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC) in all sports except ice hockey. The men's ice hockey team competes in Atlantic Hockey. The men's basketball team won the MAAC Championship in 2005 and in 2007, earning automatic bids to the 2005 and 2007's NCAA tournaments. The Purple Eagles first appearance in the Dance came in 1970, when All-American Calvin Murphy led the Purple Eagles to the Sweet Sixteen.
The men's hockey team won the College Hockey America Championship in 2000, 2004 and 2008, appearing in the NCAA Men's Ice Hockey Championship those years. In 2000, Niagara upset the University of New Hampshire to advance to the NCAA Quarterfinals.
Last season, Niagara was 15-20-5 overall and 11-11-5 in Atlantic Hockey, finishing sixth in the regular-season standings. In the postseason, the Purple Eagles defeated American International two games to none in the first round of the playoffs. In the quarterfinals, Niagara traveled to Colorado Springs, Colo., to face Air Force. After dropping game one by a 2-1 margin, the Purple Eagles won games two and three to upset the Falcons and advance to the Atlantic Hockey semifinals where they fell to Robert Morris in overtime by a 5-4 score.
This season, coach Dave Burkholder's team is off to a 0-4-0 start and has been outscored by a 22-6 margin in the early going. The Purple Eagles' losses have come at home to Clarkson (3-1), at home to St. Lawrence (10-2), at Robert Morris (5-2) and at home to the Colonials (4-1). After playing the Irish this weekend, Niagara returns home for a pair of Atlantic Hockey games against American International (Oct. 31-Nov.1).
With 11 new faces on the Notre Dame roster, the Irish are still trying to find that certain "chemistry' among new teammates and new linemates. Versus Lake Superior State last weekend, two of Notre Dame's lines looked like they are starting to get a good feel for each other.
On Friday night in the 5-3 win over Lake Superior State, the trio of juniors Thomas DiPauli and Steven Fogarty joined freshman Anders Bjork and clicked right away. DiPauli scored once and added three assists for four points while Fogarty scored twice with two assists and Bjork chipped in two helpers as the threesome combined for three goals and seven assists, good for 10 points in the victory.
On Saturday, the trip of junior Mario Lucia, sophomore Vince Hinostroza and senior Austin Wuthrich had a five-point night, scoring four goals with one assist. Three of the goals came courtesy of Lucia's first career hat trick.
"That was the first one (hat trick) that I have had in a long time," said Lucia following Saturday's win.
"The last one I had was in tryouts for the World Juniors against Finland. That was my freshman year and it helped me make that team. This one felt good. It helped the team win and with the two wins it gives us something that we can build off of over the next couple of weeks."
Lucia, who now has 33 career goals for the Irish in just over two full seasons, added, "I thought we were moving the puck better and our back pressure was good. I think we are getting some chemistry going between the lines. We are a young team and it's going to take some time with all the new players."
SHARING THE WORKLOAD
Through the first four games of the season, Irish goaltenders Chad Katunar and Cal Petersen have split the four starts right down the middle. Don't expect to see that change in the near future.
"I thought both of our goaltenders played well last weekend," says Jackson.
"I thought Cal (Petersen) was a little better on Saturday, but the team played better in front of him too. He made some big saves for us early in the game and then again later. Chad (Katunar) was good on Friday night as well, but the team didn't play as well in front of him. I think we have two good goaltenders so I am going to play both of them for at least another weekend. Once we get to conference play next weekend we may look at something else, but for now I will continue using both of them.
Katunar, the veteran of the duo, is 1-1-0 in his two starts with a 3.04 goals-against average and a .889 save percentage. For his career, he has appeared in seven games, making five starts. He is 3-2-0 with a 2.63 goals-against average and a .890 save percentage.
Petersen won his first collegiate game on Oct. 18, a 5-1 win over Lake Superior State. In two starts this season, Petersen is 1-1-0 with a 2.01 goals-against average and a .930 save percentage.
KEEPING UP WITH FORMER IRISH HOCKEY PLAYERS

Pursuers of the Future: Sunderland Culture's New Community Play
Nov 16, 2020 | Arts and Culture, Good vibes, Living, What's Happening
Big news! Our friends at Sunderland Culture have commissioned North East playwright, Scott Young, to create a new community play.
Find out more about Pursuers of the Future as it hits our screens this November…
Back in January, prior to the first Lockdown, Sunderland Culture commissioned north east playwright Scott Young to create a new community play.
Work on the play, Pursuers of the Future, has continued despite the restrictions imposed during the global pandemic.
This exciting new play is based around a mix of myth and folklore, and it features conversations with the people of Sunderland.
Now the play's producer is ready to share parts of the play to get feedback before completing the production.
Sections of the play will be live-streamed on Sunderland Culture's Facebook page on Sunday (Nov 22) at 7pm. The unique part about it? Actors will be performing from their own homes!
The Sunderland Culture commission was for a playwright to work with local residents and community groups to write a new play based on their hopes, dreams and aspirations for the future of the city.
The play's premiere was to be an outdoor performance in September, but now it's headed online instead!
THE SHOW MUST GO ON >>
Corinne Kilvington, of Theatre Space North East, who is both producing and directing Pursuers of the Future explained:
"We've been developing the script and working with our cast of about 20 community actors and now we're at a stage where we want to share where we're up to and get some feedback to further shape Scott's work,"
"We've been working in twos or threes, but on Sunday, November 22 at 7pm we're putting together sections of the second draft with all of the actors performing from their individual homes and linked online.
"We're inviting anyone who would like to join us to do so, and would love to hear their feedback – what's great and what could be improved. That feedback will help inform the last draft of the play," she added.
"There are two threads to it: there is an intimate portrayal of a Sunderland family, their thoughts and tribulations, and then there is a more epic tale involving the Lambton Worm.
"Obviously we've had to work round some pretty tricky restrictions, but we've managed and the cast have been great. The company we've put together responded to a call-out and is a great mix of people."
To see the live streaming of sections of Pursuers of the Future, go to Sunderland Culture's Facebook page on Sunday at 7pm.

Reasons to Stay in Town on City Day
By	Andrei Muchnik
British acid-jazz pioneers The Brand New Heavies will be presenting a new album at the Usadba Jazz Festival.	Manfred Werner
If years of City Day celebrations have taught Muscovites anything, it's that this is a day better spent elsewhere, away from the ubiquitous metal detectors scattered all around the city center and the badly organized festivities.
However, all that began to change two years when a new team at the city's culture department revisited the concept of City Day and decided to turn it into a "festival of festivals" with better planned activities spread all over the city, not confined to the congested center.
Among the reasons one would want to stay in Moscow this weekend is the special edition of the Usadba Jazz Festival, which will take place at the Kuskovo estate instead of the traditional Arkhangelskoye estate. Kuskovo is much more accessible by public transport, so this is good news. Headlining the festival are British acid-jazz pioneers Brand New Heavies, who will present their brand new album Forward.
Among other artists who will be performing on the two stages in Kuskovo is Jenia Lubich, a Russian singer-songwriter who first became popular as one of the singers in the French band Nouvelle Vague. Apart from her first hit "Russian Girl," in which she famously sang "I am just a simple Russian girl, I've got vodka in my blood," Lubich has already got an LP and two EPs under her belt. Another artist of notice is Therr Maitz, a Moscow-based band playing a mix of electronica, dance and trip-hop.
Usadba will not be the only jazz festival taking place this weekend: The Moscow Jazz Festival will be going on simultaneously in Sokolniki Park. Moscow Jazz will feature Plastow from Switzerland, Alexander Sklyar, Markscheider Kunst and many others playing on three stages.
For those not interested in jazz, there are plenty of other options: Luzhniki stadium will host a rap festival where some of the leading Russian artists in that genre will perform, including Noize MC, Kasta and Triagrutrika.
A more hipstery crowd may gravitate to Shestnadtsat Tonn (Ulitsa Presnensky Val 6, Bldg. 1) for Indiushata 2013, which will take place Sept. 8 to 9. An indie-rock festival and competition, Indiushata will feature 11 groups out of more than 300 bands that applied to take part in the festival. Representatives of the media and recording companies will be present to judge the groups over the course of the festival.
For those who just want to dance, the most promising party to join is the traditional All Stars Day & Night at Strelka Bar, where 18 DJs will play for 12 hours straight from Saturday afternoon until early Sunday, including the famous juke masters Rashad & Spinn, a double act from Chicago.
