Jordan Sports Partnerships – Lowering The Cost Of Sports
Global sporting related news
Football still not converting revenue growth into sustainable profit!
Premier League clubs' combined revenue reached a record £2.27bn in 2010/11, according to the 21st Annual Review of Football Finance from the Sports Business Group at Deloitte. In total, the top 92 clubs in English football saw revenues increase by 9% to £2.9bn in 2010/11.
Dan Jones, Partner in the Sports Business Group at Deloitte, said: 'Top clubs in English football have continued to show impressive revenue growth despite a difficult economic climate. Premier League clubs' revenues increased by 12% in 2010/11, driven by broadcast revenue increasing by 13%, to £1.18bn, in the first year of a new three year broadcast cycle.'
'This uplift was primarily due to an increase in overseas broadcast deal values, demonstrating once again the Premier League's unrivalled global popularity. Commercial revenue grew by 18% during 2010/11, although this was largely attributable to clubs with a more global profile. Matchday revenue increased by £20m (4%) to £551m, however almost half the clubs suffered a reduction in matchday revenue in 2010/11.'
More than 80% of the Premier League clubs' revenue increase was spent on wages, which increased by £201m (14%) to almost £1.6bn, and resulted in a record Premier League wages/revenue ratio of 70%.
Adam Bull, Consultant in the Sports Business Group at Deloitte, noted: 'Despite the increase in revenue generated by Premier League clubs, operating profits reduced by £16m (19%) to £68m in 2010/11 and combined pre-tax losses were £380m. Gross transfer spending by Premier League clubs increased by £210m (38%), to a record level of £769m.'
'The challenge for clubs remains converting impressive revenue growth into sustainable profits. This will become even more important for a number of clubs as the financial results for 2011/12 will, for the first time, count towards their UEFA Financial Fair Play break-even calculation.'
Revenue in the Football League Championship increased by £17m (4%) to £423m, prompted by an increase in the solidarity payments from the Premier League and the promotion of some larger clubs into the division.
Alan Switzer, Director in the Sports Business Group at Deloitte, commented: 'The Football League's achievement in attracting fans and growing revenues is often overlooked. The Championship is the fourth best attended League in Europe, ahead of the top divisions in Italy and France.'
'Whilst Championship revenues have held up well, a wages/revenue ratio of 90%, combined operating losses of £130m and record pre-tax losses of £189m, are a cause for concern. It is therefore encouraging that in April 2012 Championship clubs agreed to the implementation of new financial fair play regulations that aim to help clubs reduce the level of annual losses.'
Other key findings of the Deloitte Annual Review of Football Finance 2012 include:
The total European football market grew to a record £15.3bn in 2010/11;
Premier League clubs generated the highest revenue (£2.3bn) of any league in Europe in 2010/11, followed by Germany and Spain (each £1.6bn), Italy (£1.4bn), and France (£900m);
The Bundesliga remained Europe's most profitable league with operating profits of £154m, a 24% increase on the previous year and widening the gap to the Premier League, where operating profits decreased by £16m to £68m;
The top 92 English clubs invested £167m in stadia and facilities in 2010/11 and over £3bn has been invested over the last 20 years. This is likely to increase further in the future given the anticipated investment in training ground facilities resulting from the introduction of the Elite Player Performance Plan (EPPP);
Average league capacity utilisation at Premier League clubs was above 90% for the 15th consecutive season, despite total attendances at Premier League matches decreasing by 2% in 2011/12;
Net debt in respect of Premier League clubs fell by £351m (13%) to £2.4bn, its lowest level since 2006. This overall reduction is not representative of the experience of every club, with increases at around half the Premier League clubs;
The Government's tax take from the top 92 professional football clubs was almost £1.2bn in 2010/11, a £219m (23%) increase, largely due to the increase in VAT (to 20%) and the introduction of the 50% rate for earnings over £150,000.
Of the £2.4bn net debt in the Premier League, 62% (£1.5bn) is in the form of non-interest bearing 'soft loans', of which almost 90% relates to three clubs – Chelsea (£819m), Newcastle United (£277m) and Fulham (£200m).
On the positive side of the balance sheet, Premier League clubs recorded a carrying value of tangible fixed assets of almost £1.9bn, reflecting the huge investment in facilities seen over the past two decades and a carrying value of player registrations of around £1.2bn.

Goal-Line technology moves a step closer
Goal-line technology is set for a high-profile debut at Wembley Stadium when England take on Belgium on 2nd June as part of the side's UEFA Euro 2012 preparations.
Hawk-Eye technology will feature in the friendly played by Roy Hodgson's side ahead of the tournament, but its readings will not be available to match officials during the game and will have no impact on any contentious goal-line decisions.
The first live test of Hawk-Eye's systems were conducted earlier this month in the Hampshire Senior Cup final at St Mary's Stadium.
Independent testers EMPA will observe the system along with representatives from the International Football Association Board (IFAB) and FIFA.
The trials are being conducted alongside tests of the GoalRef system in Denmark. If the trials prove successful the IFAB could approve the introduction of goal-line technology at its special meeting on 2ndJuly, where a final decision on the subject is set to be made.
The IFAB in March reduced the number of companies bidding to implement the initiative to two, rejecting six devises, leaving only Hawke-Eye and GoalRef.
A statement from FIFA read: 'FIFA would like to place on record its sincere thanks to The Football Association for their willingness to support the live match tests, a critical part of test phase two for goal-line technology. The phase two test results will be provided to the IFAB in order for a definitive decision on the use of goal-line technology.'
RFU Championship to Receive Major Play-Off Changes from Next Season
The play-off system in the Rugby Football Union (RFU) Championship is set to be revamped from next season.
The Championship promotion and relegation pool stages have been abolished by the RFU. From next season the top four teams in the second tier will play a two-legged semi-final and a two-legged final.
There will be no relegation play-offs at all, with the bottom team automatically demoted to National One.The system is intended to streamline the league and reward the best teams throughout the regular season.
Since its inception in 2009, the Championship's top eight clubs were split into two pool groups, while the bottom four clubs formed a separate relegation play-off.This format was adopted to increase revenue, as every club would end up playing an extra two home ties after the regular season had finished, and it is thought that these additional games will now be filtered into the British and Irish Cup fixtures.
The current system has received widespread criticism, especially from the best performing clubs, as their push for promotion was based on their performances after 22 rounds had concluded.
Lords critical of LTA progress
The Lawn Tennis Association (LTA) has fought back after being labelled "a total shambles" in the House of Lords on Tuesday.
The chair of the All Party Tennis Group, Baroness Billingham, described the organisation's record as "pitiful" and called for an inquiry into how the LTA uses public money.
Billingham was part of the All Party Tennis Group that levelled similar allegations two years ago when asked to investigate the governing body by the then Sports Minister Gerry Sutcliffe in the wake of a Davis Cup defeat to Lithuania.
Despite a heavy defeat to Belgium last month in Davis Cup Euro-Africa Zone I, some progress has been made, in particular at women's world-class level with four Britons currently in the world's top 150.
Billingham said: "The LTA are a total shambles, tottering from one broken pledge to another, the British press and the world's press aghast at the huge cost and pathetic results of six years of mismanagement. It is pitiful.
"I call on Hugh Robertson, the Minister for Sport, to set up an urgent review and inquiry into British tennis. He must insist on transparency of all expenditure and salaries, especially given the LTA receives public money – taxpayers' money."
Following the speech, the LTA, who strongly dispute the majority of the allegations, hit back, saying: "The speech contained a number of inaccuracies that do not reflect a true picture of British tennis."
Manchester City get record income from Premier League Broadcast payments
Manchester City's have secured a record income of £60.6million from Premier League broadcast payments for last season but even bottom club Wolves earned £39million.
The figures highlight the money available to clubs in the richest league in the world – and the fact that compared to many other leagues the split of the cash is not skewed massively towards the top sides. Half the domestic TV cash and all the overseas rights income are split equally between the 20 clubs.
"The Premier League's income distribution mechanism rewards sporting success in the League while also guaranteeing a significant amount of broadcast revenue to each club in order that they can plan from one season to the next," Premier League chief executive Richard Scudamore said.
"It has been a fantastic season, arguably the best of all the 20 Premier League seasons, and the clubs deserve huge credit for the quality of football on show throughout 2011-12.
"We believe the way we distribute broadcast income plays a part in allowing each club to compete at the highest level."
Each club received an equal share of £13.7m from domestic TV money, £18.7m from overseas broadcast rights, plus £755,000 for each place they finished in the final league table – that was the sum received by bottom Wolves while champions Manchester City earned £15.1m.
On top of that, each club receives around £570,000 for each time they are featured in live TV matches – at least £5.7million but in Manchester United's case £13.5m after taking part in 26 live TV games.
That explains why Tottenham finished below Arsenal in the league table but earned more – £57.3m compared to £56.2m – because they played in 23 live TV games, compared to the Gunners' 19.
The Jockey Club shows strong financial form
The Jockey Club, the largest commercial group in British horseracing, has reported double-digit growth in underlying turnover and operating profits for 2011, allowing the Group to increase its investment into horse racing – including a record contribution to prize money of £16.4m.
This is up from the £13m contribution made in 2010, an increase of 26%, in line with its commitment to invest all profits back into British racing. The Jockey Club, which also owns Cheltenham, Aintree, Epson Downs and Newmarket Racecourses, generated increased turnover of £139.4m in 2011 (2010: £138.0m), despite receiving £8.8m less in industry funding.
At £19.2m, The Jockey Club's operating profits were also up for 2011 (2010: £18.3m), driven by growth in major racing festivals, which helped Jockey Club Racecourses to attract record annual attendances of 1.9m, plus increased income from media rights, hospitality sales and sponsorship, and the loss of fewer fixtures to the weather.
Adjusting for the decision to inject an additional £3.4m into prize money, the Group grew underlying operating profits by £4.3m or 23% year-on-year. With record attendances of 1.9m in 2011, The Jockey Club's racecourse arm welcomed nearly a third of the UK's total racing attendance, from hosting a quarter of the sport's fixtures.
The Jockey Club ended 2011 with bottom line profits of £2.3m after tax, interest, depreciation and waivers, which reportedly exceeded its expectations.
During 2011, the Group achieved its target of paying down its debt by £10.3m (to £92.3m) in line with its scheduled repayments, following investments of more than £150m in state-of-the-art facilities and upgrades in the last eight years.
Simon Bazalgette, Group Chief Executive, The Jockey Club, said: 'British racing is on the up and I'm very pleased The Jockey Club continues to be our sport's commercial powerhouse, working hard to generate increased profits so we can put more back in. The growth in interest in British racing is reflected in our Group business performance. By working hard to meet and exceed our targets in 2011, we were able to afford to contribute more than ever to British racing in the form of prize money, despite the challenging economic environment around us.' 'It's fantastic that more people than ever watched our equine stars on course last year and in increasing numbers on television. By working together as a sport we are succeeding in broadening its appeal. Now we must keep building on these gains, because for the health and sustainability of British racing; we must be a relevant sport for generations to come.' 'That which we can control, I'm pleased to say, seems to be going well. However, British racing is still significantly underfunded. We need the Government to press on with a legislative framework that allows racing to receive a fair commercial return from the betting industry. While this is being worked through, we will see little benefit in the next couple of years, so it is more important than ever for The Jockey Club to perform well for the good of British racing, in order to invest the maximum possible into our sport.'
Premier League TV Broadcast Rights out for tender
The Premier League has issued an invitation to tender for the domestic UK broadcast rights for the 2013/14 to 2015/16 football seasons, with 154 matches set to be shown live on TV each season.
The proposed schedule is more than currently broadcast, with over 40% of all top-level matches set to be shown on television.
The extra 16 live games comes as matches are moved away from Saturday 3pm kick-off times, due to Europa League involvement or police advice, but games that do kick-off at 3pm will still not be shown.
The 154 games will be split into seven packages comprising five packages of 26 matches and two packages of 12 matches.
No one buyer will be allowed to buy more than five packages or 116 matches.
The rights are currently held by Sky and ESPN, and Al Jazeera is also expected this challenge for rights this time round.
Another sales process will be conducted for two "near live" packages each containing 226 matches, and an internet-based clips package for all 380 matches.

Hôtel Parister : Mario Giacomelli
The poetic reality of Giacomelli by Enzo Carli
Mario Giacomelli, unanimously considered by critics and the public as one of the greatest photographers of our time, and who passed away after a long illness on November 25, 2000, looked through his work at the infinite landscapes of the soul . Born in Senigallia on August 1, 1925, his activity as a photographer began on Christmas Eve 1952 when he bought himself a Comet camera and went to the beach to photograph the sea. To reproduce its movement and animation, he moved the camera: his first photograph, L'approdo [The approach, the boarding] was born; with it, he consciously moved away from the photographic tradition. His participation in the group of photographers from Senigallia "Misa", founded by Giuseppe Cavalli (with Paolo Monti among the theoreticians of the "new Italian photography") enabled Giacomelli to leave the framework of his small provincial town to integrate himself into a wider cultural universe, closer to his motivations and aspirations. However, the most important works of the great master are indissolubly linked to his land: "While feeling realistic [Giacomelli told me], I discovered that poetry is the language with which I believe I can escape the clichés of everyday reality. Space is no longer trivialized; the things that I always saw similar, the same streets, the same people in my city, thinking of their poetry, now seem modified to me. Everything has a taste of adventure that leads me into new experiences and makes me live in imaginary territories. " In 1955, he won the first prize for the best series at the second National Exhibition of Photographs in Castelfranco Veneto. Paolo Monti, who chaired the jury, said that Giacomelli was the new man of Italian photography. In 1957 he was published in the prestigious Photography Year Book (London) and in 1958 in U. S. Camera (New York). In 1959, in the magazine Fotografia, the late critic Giuseppe Turroni already spoke of the first and second manner of Giacomelli and, on the occasion of the exhibition at the Biblioteca Comunale in Milan in 1959, he wrote about the photographer of Senigallia that he was "one of a kind" of Italian photography. It was in 1963, thanks to John Szarkowsky, then curator of the Photography Department at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York, that Giacomelli arrived on the international scene with the Scanno series (1957), first with a publication in Looking at Photographs, then with a permanent exhibition in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art. After a series of first titled photographs between 1953 and 1956, probably influenced by his friend Luigi Crocenzi – one of the founders in 1954 of the Centro per la Cultura della Fotografia (CCF) in Fermo and one of the theoreticians and promoters of photographic narrative –, Giacomelli addressed the major themes, keeping the titles for the series of photographs. The series (produced with a Bessamatic and a 10.5 color Eliar lens with flash light) on Life in the hospice dates from 1954-1956. Mario Giacomelli knew the life of the hospice since, very young, he had followed his mother who worked there out of necessity after her widowhood. Over the meetings with the old people of the Senigallia hospice, the story of infinite love was woven. This is why he returned there in 1966-1968 for a series of works whose title is taken from a poem by Pavese, Verrà la morte e avrà i tuoi occhi [Death will come and it will have your eyes]. He brought his images to the limit of abstraction: the flesh is "scorched" by the flash light and the wrinkles of the faces are those of the earth. These blurred images are imbued with a deep lyricism reminiscent of Licini. He returned again to the Senigallia hospice for an untitled series in 1981-1983. For nine years, therefore, Giacomelli photographed the elderly, without ever producing a reportage, without ever having the requirement or the intention of denouncing or expressing social contempt. At a time when photography was by definition the mirror of reality, the hospice was for Mario a place of encounter and fascination to understand his fears, to exorcise death. Especially to understand time, made "of a little before and a little after", said Giacomelli: "It is not easy to photograph the life of the hospice… This mother who had been waiting for her son for three years and took my hand when I brought her sweets to see her happy for a moment and she said that her son was so busy that he could not come and see her. […] I went to the hospice out of inner need. In several images, I removed the material with the white; by removing the details, I destroyed reality. Deformations, blurs destroy the overflow of reality to regenerate poetry. I didn't make beautiful pictures, I only hid in a place that others call a hospice and which, for me, was a big mirror that allowed me to look at myself. […] I felt then that my fears were not inventions but things that I was already experiencing and of which I was a prisoner. "
From 1955 to his death, he worked on the landscape of his native land which represented a fundamental chapter in his work as an artist and an excellent key to reading his intimate convictions. " I do not represent landscapes, but the signs and the memory of existence. " They are notches, like the lines that man has in his hands, like the wrinkles of the old people in the hospice, like the tears of nature and humanity, dug by the traumatic passage of time. Between 1961 and 1963, he produced the series Io non ho mani che mi accarezzino il volto [There are no hands to caress my face]. In this fantastic series of "Pretini" [Priests], these photos taken at the episcopal seminary of Senigallia, Giacomelli reached the pinnacle of abstraction through the iconic transgression of suspended images and cassocks inflated like small hot-air balloons. Between 1964 and 1966, he produced the series entitled La buona terra [The good earth], an epic saga, punctuated by the passage of cycles, seasons and characterized by ancient peasant ritual. The images were developed over the course of the reportage / story, with the participation of Giacomelli who, after a period of adaptation (he photographs the life of a patriarchal family around Senigallia), binds himself with the protagonists, follows them in their work in the fields and in their moments of celebration. Once again, this is not a realistic documentary with political and social intentions, but a rereading of time, memory and peasant memory.
The Caroline Branson series, taken from Spoon River Antology by Edgar Lee Master, dates from the years 1971-1973. It is a love story rich in meaning, supported by striking signs and by naturalistic elements – as if to underline the dramatic aspect of the story –, an alternation of evocative images, with a strong emotional impact accentuated by double exposure. Here too, under the pretext of the story of Senigallia, here is the intensity of the cosmic night, of the darkness of memories, of the absence / presence of space-time.
Giacomelli's photography is therefore the metamorphosis of his intimate convictions: a magical realism, filtered by memory and steeped in poetry. His images – self-analysis and mirror of existence – draw their inspiration from his journeys to his inner spaces and imaginary territories. He transposes into photography his passion for his native land, for the cycles and eras of existence. Inscribed in filigree in his memory, these almost invisible relationships with his mental universe allowed him to bring to life, in the folds of matter and in an imaginary reality, the joy of creation and knowledge. Giacomelli tackled serious and disturbing themes with photography, and he loaded them with poetry, restoring them to their original dignity, without ideological dogma or academic turn. It is far from the pretensions fairly widespread among contemporary artists; he knew that each research must find the authenticity of life, know the links between forms of expression to rehabilitate our origins. He lamented the helplessness of man in the face of deformity and evil; his photographic writing expresses these feelings. With his images accentuated by luminous contrasts, by blurs, by the amplification of the grain, he wanted to overcome the anguish of pain and loneliness and to send us a message of hope. " […] What interests me is the joy I felt when I push the trigger, the tension I felt when faced with the image. So, from that moment [says Giacomelli], the image no longer dies, it remains after my death… I would like to escape this reality and enter into the useless reality of poetry. "
"Avanti! Si accendano i lumi / nelle sale della mia reggia! / Signori! Ha principio la vendita / delle mie idee. " [Come in ! Let the lights be turned on / in the halls of my palace! / Gentlemen! The sale of my ideas begins.] Thus begins the poetry of Corazzini Bando [Avis de vente], from which Giacomelli drew inspiration for one of his last works which borrows its title from it. Thus he decided to conclude his own "research" by getting rid of his artistic and intellectual baggage; by turning the very concept of poetry upside down, by refuting the idea of purity and intimacy as an end in itself with which it had always been satisfied. He shows us, on the other hand, how he designed his research with more distance: exactly as at an auction, when personal ideas become those of the buyer; it then seems clear that the interpretations that we want to attribute to them are only our own. At the root of this reasoning is the realization that life is changeable: not material things, but the very nature of ideas that warp, coalesce and amplify, continually losing and gaining meaning.
It is indeed in his last work, Interrogando l'anima [Interrogating the soul], that Giacomelli reconsiders his journey inside and outside poetry, providing us with other keys to his reading. of his work. He did nothing other than regroup his previous works (also mixing them with others), providing each group of series with a new title, and therefore new points of reflection sometimes totally different from the previous foundations. Let us take an example: the images of "Pretini", which bore as their title the very beautiful verse of a poem by Father David Turold, Io non ho mani che mi accarezzino il volto [There are no hands for caressing my face], take on a totally different meaning in this latest collection – which is nothing more than a summary of his larger work –, with a title that has become for the occasion La spensieratezza [Recklessness] . The differences between the two titles shed new light on the same photographic narrative: initially, the title taken from the poem expressed a certain melancholy because it evoked in the context of these images where the priests play together, amused and carefree – the wearing of the cassock and, from there, the total solitude of the body deprived of all physical contact. The new title is no longer a reference to their existential loneliness, but a simple reminder of the emotion (that of carelessness, therefore) that invades them at such times, and that the images invariably comment on.
In this game of mirrors that is his work, Giacomelli in turn plays with the artist's costume and becomes his own "barker", who proclaims in a loud voice that "the sale of his ideas has begun". Indeed, if we return to Bando [Avis de vente], we can observe that his imagination is filled with signs – signs of passing and recycling time, just like the poet's attempts to free himself from his verses to create new ones, or like those of the seller wanting to get rid of his obsolete merchandise to replace it. This symbolism tries in turn (game of mirrors) to free itself from the commonly accepted rhetoric that puts poetry above all things, because poetry does not represent life, but transfigures it and unfolds it in time. We are thinking of the smashed windows, the gutted armchairs, the rotten wood and the bare cement frames that make up certain shots in the Bando themed series, this micro-universe made up of interior lines, shots which, beyond their hermeticism, express the disintegration of matter under the action of time and appeal to the imagination. We are now thinking of the puppets, the mask, the crows (a reference to the dark poem The Raven, by Edgar Allan Poe), the dogs, the elongated shadows, the cuttings in the tree, the old people in the hospice, the journey to Lourdes, to the sea and the land, to all these vast and complex themes that make up the final account of the artist and his contribution to the world in the series Interrogando l'anima. We then understand that the photographic image can become a story that speaks to us more or less directly of the inner journey of a man.
Mario Giacomelli participated with great tenacity and rigor in the development of the Manifesto of the Photographers of the Center Etudes Marches, later called Manifesto of the Photographers passing of the Border (Senigallia, 1995). The Manifesto, coordinated by Enzo Carli, saw the participation of photographers from the different waves, including Gianni Berengo Gardin, Ferruccio Ferroni, Giorgio Cutini, Luigi Erba beyond Mario Giacomelli.
The Manifesto, national prize Ville de Fabriano 2013, is linked to the Manifesto of the Compass (1947) by highlighting the process of innovation in contemporary photography. The artistic program insisted on the fundamental expressive solicitations of the photographer linked to the emotional experience, to the intense tensions during the personal journey on the life of knowledge and the search for originality.
"The passage designates the action of going beyond, the change of state. The border, different from the limit, is like the veil through which the unknown opens to the grasp of man" Galliano Crinella, Passage de Frontière 1995-2004, Ed. QuattroVenti, Urbino 2013).
The Manifesto, origin of an interesting path of exploration supported by a theoretical structure, included as modus operandi a range of inspections (Verifiche) with a double interpretation, individual and collective between language, space, time, feeling and beauty, color and form.
I sincerely hope that Mario Giacomelli will now and forever be in the "useless reality of poetry", this place that he never stopped looking for and from which he returned each time with images that served to tell him. For which we thank this great Master.

Giacomelli e l'universo by Michele Smargiassi
On the fringes of a country gripped by a consumer fever, this man still had the courage to point out a malaise that the Fiat 600 and the washing machine claimed to hide. His gaze removed the veneer of optimistic images of an affluent society. On the fringes (but not outside) of the economic boom that was moving millions of people from the South to the North of Italy, he observed the frenzy of change against the background of an immutable destiny, that of the human condition.
Whoever met him would not have called him a tormented man. A crown of white hair surmounted a good-natured face, always on the verge of a smile. Photographing gave him "the happiness of an orgasm", he said: "When I go to take photos, I am as happy as a little girl waiting for her prince with her white horse and her blue cape…".
But he never knew how to translate this demi-god exaltation of images into golden images. He confessed to Pietro Donzelli, a great photographer friend, that lyricism in photos was not for him, that in photographing he rather felt "the tragedy of the world".
And this is perhaps where the glorious mystery of Giacomelli lies, in the virtuous contradiction between a gentle existence and a dramatic vision of existence. Photography was for him nothing more than an effective means. Neither a vocation nor a virtue. "I am not a photographer, I am a man who, from time to time, finds something".
Things or ideas that he could see but perhaps not decipher: the film worked "like a blotting paper placed on a stain", it had to be picked up, fixed, put aside. Look at a blotting paper: it is covered with stains, so many messy signs. But then the earth, the whole earth, was for Giacomelli a deposit of disorderly signs, written in a language that cannot be translated into words. It was then a question of collecting them, these signs, to make them "breathe".
Photography "is nothing more than a sheet of paper with signs on it, signs like ideas, everything is a view of the mind".

Pressed Data: Best of 2016
Posted on January 8, 2017	by GilPress
In Pressed Data, my Forbes.com column, I try to chronicle the evolution of digital technologies, their business impact, and the people behind the innovations, business models, and new ideas. In 2016, I covered artificial intelligence—the 60-year-old new new thing, big data—the most recent hottest trend and a catalyst for the new-found popularity of the new one, the fading away of former tech leaders, a number of startups, and a number of influential business and tech innovators. These were the highlights:
When Artificial Intelligence Started To 'Change The World'
A review of ENIAC in Action: Making and Remaking the Modern Computer, "a nuanced, engaging and thoroughly researched account of the early days of computers, the people who built and operated them, and their old and new applications," contrasting it with "history as hype, offering a distorted view of the past, sometimes through the tinted lenses of contemporary fads and preoccupations."
A New Documentary Reveals A One-Dimensional Face Of Big Data
Hype is on full display in "The Human Face of Big Data" of which I wrote: "…in our technology-obsessed world, new technologies and new technology applications tend sometimes to become buzzwords that are hyped, celebrated and often discussed irresponsibly by technology vendors and the media. Unfortunately, 'The Human Face of Big Data' by and large falls into this trap, the fascination (self-delusion?) with the idea of we are living a momentous time in history thanks to technology."
Top 10 Hot Big Data Technologies
The hype—and an ambiguous and ill-defined term—does not mean that there is no value in adopting and applying the set of technologies that can be classified as big data technologies. In TechRadar: Big Data, Q1 2016, Forrester Research evaluated the maturity and trajectory of 22 technologies across the entire data life cycle.
Why Yahoo Lost And Google Won
Many of the Yahoo obituaries published in 2016 contrasted its demise with the flourishing of Google, another Web pioneer. Why was Google's attempt to "organize all the world's information" vastly more successful than Yahoo's? The short answer: Because Google did not organize the world's information. Google got the true spirit of the Web, as it was invented by Tim Berners-Lee. Following the latter's disdain for pre-defined classification systems and taxonomies, Google's founders built their information retrieval business on tracking closely cross-references (i.e., links between pages) as they were happening and correlating relevance with quantity of cross-references (i.e., popularity of pages as judged by how many other pages linked to them). In contrast, Yahoo had a "Chief Ontologist" on staff. As happens often in the cutting-edge technology business, new ideas are "revolutionary" only in the sense of revolving back to old ones: The concept of cross-references can be trace back to Ephraim Chambers' Cyclopaedia, published in London in 1728.

Deep Learning Is Still A No-Show In Gartner 2016 Hype Cycle For Emerging Technologies
In 2016, Gartner has moved machine learning back a few notches from where it placed it on the previous year's "Hype Cycle," putting it at the peak of inflated expectations, and still estimating 2 to 5 years until mainstream adoption. Is machine learning an "emerging technology" and is there a better term to describe what most of the hype is about nowadays in tech circles?

Only Humans Need Apply Is A Must-Read On AI For Facebook Executives
In Only Humans Need Apply: Winners and Losers in the Age of Smart Machines, knowledge work and analytics expert Tom Davenport and Julia Kirby, a contributing editor for the Harvard Business Review, re-introduce the concept of augmentation to our discussion of the impact of AI on jobs—humans and computers combing "their strengths to achieve more favorable outcomes than either could do alone."
12 Observations About Artificial Intelligence From The O'Reilly AI Conference

Artificial intelligence (AI) And The Future Of Marketing: 6 Observations From Inbound 2016
At Inbound 2016, HubSpot's co-founders Brian Halligan and Dharmesh Shah entertained 19,000 attendees with their take on the past and future of marketing.
2017 Predictions For AI, Big Data, IoT, Cybersecurity, And Jobs From Senior Tech Executives
Artificial intelligence (and machine/deep learning) is the hottest trend, eclipsing, but building on, the accumulated hype for the previous "new big thing," big data. The new catalyst for the data explosion is the Internet of Things, bringing with it new cybersecurity vulnerabilities. The rapid fluctuations in the relative temperature of these trends also create new dislocations and opportunities in the tech job market.
Here's to a productive and enjoyable 2017!

Data visualization may hold its mesmerism as a tool of illumination, but but even the most original ways of presenting data can fail to make that eye-opening, visceral impact on us — what usually remains in the heart are not scientific analyses and cold facts but emblematic events (Woodstock), inspiring words (Martin Luther King, Jr.) or riveting photographs (D-day bombing).
Which is what makes Peter Menzel and Faith D'Alusio's Hungry Planet: What the World Eats (public library) so powerful — a photographic journey to 24 countries, where the authors stayed with 30 different families for a week each, documenting on paper and film what these families ate and how much it cost.
Each photograph depicts all the family members in their home environment, surrounded by a week's worth of groceries.
There's something very special about the photograph and its ability to encapsulate the time's vibe, condensing big amounts of information — cultural, political, economic — in a commentary that engages us emotionally. The student standing in front of a tank on Tiananmen Square. The Pulitzer-Prize-winning photo of a vulture stalking a starved child. National Geographic's iconic Afghan girl. Even without the full contextual facts about these photos, they somehow make us get "it." And Hungry Planet does just that.
Comparing these images makes for some shocking conclusions, both funny and sad — prolific fodder for sociology, economics, and anthropology college papers alike. But to stick to our point here, we'll seize elaboration and let the photographs speak.
Grab a copy of Hungry Planet for a pause-giving perspective on a basic human right we've come to take for granted.


Cheek, J. Kealy, D. Hewitt, P.L. Mikail, S.F. Flett, G.L. Ko, A. Jia, M. (2018). Addressing the Complexity of Perfectionism in Clinical Practice. Psychodyn. Psych., 46(4):457-489.
Joanna Cheek, M.D., F.R.C.P.C., David Kealy, Ph.D., Paul L. Hewitt, Ph.D., Samuel F. Mikail, Ph.D., Gordon L. Flett, Ph.D., Ariel Ko and Mary Jia, M.A.
Perfectionism, defined as the need to be or appear to be perfect, is a multidimensional personality construct that makes individuals vulnerable to a host of clinical problems including depression, anxiety, personality and eating disorders, as well as suicide behaviors, interpersonal dysfunction, and difficulties achieving successful therapeutic outcome. Given the detrimental associations with perfectionism, it is crucial that mental health professionals be familiar with and able to identify patients presenting with perfectionistic characteristics. The purpose of this article is to provide an overview of a comprehensive conceptualization of perfectionism and its assessment and treatment in clinical practice based on the psychodynamic and interpersonal perspective of Hewitt et al. (2017). This article presents conceptual models of perfectionism, assessment measures, treatment considerations and challenges, and a case example of a patient with perfectionism. Through understanding the nature and treatment of perfectionism, clinicians can broaden and strengthen their knowledge and skill in helping patients struggling with perfectionistic difficulties and the attendant symptoms, syndromes, and disorders.

Miss Begg: In making a risk analysis and a public benefit analysis of the withdrawal of co-proxamol, will she also consider the following point, which she will probably be unable to deal with this evening? Those who previously used co-proxamol, and who were active and in work, might lose their job and be unable to work as a
13 Jul 2005 : Column 943
result of its withdrawal and their failing to find an equally effective alternative. My constituents' fear is that they will therefore be a burden on the state, instead of contributing to it.
Caroline Flint: It is important that all the alternatives are looked at. We need to ensure, in respect not just of co-proxamol but of other drugs, that GPs have the most up-to-date and most effective pain management care for their patients. Sometimes drugs become a matter of custom and practice, because it is the one thing that the general practitioner knows about, so he or she continues to prescribe it despite evidence that there are better alternatives. I understand what my hon. Friend is saying: I will reflect on what she said and write to her on that issue.
What I am saying this evening is that the primary issue is that we stand by the decisions made by the Committee on Safety of Medicines, while at the same time recognising that, for a minority who have gone through all the alternatives, there may be a clinical need to continue with the prescribing of co-proxamol.
Miss Begg: My hon. Friend is a Minister in the Department of Health, so the calculation may be done on health grounds, but there may be social costs to the withdrawal of the drug, which may not have been factored in with respect to the health costs of keeping the drug going. There could be costs to society if people fail to get an effective drug and co-proxamol is withdrawn.
Caroline Flint: I understand what my hon. Friend is saying. Yes, we have to weigh up all the different factors. However, the information that I provided earlier this evening about the impact of this particular drug on the number of people who die through either accidental or planned overdose is a very serious issue. I understand that all drugs have risks, but we face huge challenges that cannot be overcome through treatment if someone overdoses by accident. Some people, unfortunately, seek to commit suicide, but they may rethink that option if they have a chance of getting treatment—after being saved, as it were. That raises many questions about co-proxamol. From the evidence that I have seen, the option of having treatment, thereby saving life, is much reduced by the accidental or intentional use of this drug when it leads to an overdose. We have to take all those factors into consideration.
As I have already said, it is a complex issue that has focused the minds of many people in establishing what is the best thing to do. No one lightly takes removing a drug from the market when it has become part and parcel of how many people, whether they are in or out of work, cope with their daily lives. I referred earlier to an article in Pulse, which made it clear that GPs are engaging with patients in a sensitive way in planning the withdrawal of co-proxamol in favour of alternatives. The fact that there has been a decline, from 438 to 20, in the number of people who cannot deal with any alternative drug shows that progress can be made, although we must be mindful of the minority for whom alternative treatment may not be an option. There is a process that must be gone through but, as I said, GPs or prescribers retain the ability to prescribe co-proxamol.
I shall write to my hon. Friend about some of the issues that she has raised, and particularly about the question of stocks. Clearly, it is important to determine what the future holds for those people for whom co-proxamol is the only drug that can give them the relief that they need.
I welcome the opportunity to hold this debate. Sometimes, regulation must balance the preferences of the few with the needs of the many, but that is not to say that we do not take account of the individual requirements that my hon. Friend has expressed so ably. I hope that she and organisations such as Arthritis Care are reassured by my acceptance of the possibility that co-proxamol will continue to be prescribed where there is a clear clinical need because alternative treatments are unsuitable.
The Government are sensitive to the problem and accept that pain management is a complex matter. We expect health professionals to engage fully with patients on the range of drugs that are available to manage their pain, and we know that patients have considerable interest in complementary and alternative medicines for the management of pain.
The way forward is to ensure that the relationship between health professionals and patients is developed. It is not good enough for GPs or prescribers to sign off a patient on drugs for many years without any discussion of pain management. The relationship must be a progressive one: it may change with time, but both patient and prescriber must feel that they have attempted to make the best possible progress.
Adjourned accordingly at ten minutes past Seven o'clock.


A friend has an old tete a tete loveseat. I had never heard of this before she mentioned she had it. She wants to give it to me. My thought would be to put all new foam, cotton, etc., cover in musin, then give a price that would include the loveseat and my labor to reupholster. The customer would provide the fabric.
The only value I see is that it is unique. Unique also can be a negative. Anyone have any experience with this type of loveseat? Any issues with reupholstering? Any thoughts on my idea to sell it?
The sides slide around to the back.
Can't say I've ever seen one much less worked on one. As far as resale, it would take a unique person with a unique house to purchase one.
Never saw one of these Gene, but it is different. I like the movement. It makes it dual purpose. I don't think there would be any unique issues upholstering it except for the obvious backs being curved like they are but not a huge issue. Fitting takes care of that. Their must be a mechanism that would allow it to be a knock down so it should be pretty easily reupholstered. It would need to be shown in the right place to sell for a good price for you. 2500 is not bad if sold without reupholstery. Add the Reup price would bring it closer to 3.5 - 4 k. Worth it for both sides.
When I was dating my Wife my future FIL made me sit in their tete a tete -and he added if I move one inch he'll clobber me.
I second what Paul said. That's a rare piece and there are people out there who would love to have an original. Definitely worth it, in my area. Can't say for yours.
I too think they are very unique and very cool. I've always wanted to make one with the big "S"back and very Victorian. The first one I say (pictures of, sadly) was actually a three seater out of an old hotel lobby. [wink] Think pinwheel [wink]. Every body got a seat without being "sitting with someone" on a small piece of furniture.

Description of the public art exhibit Wings of the City by Mexican artist Jorge Marin, currently on temporary display in Downtown Sacramento.
The exhibit Wings of the City by Jorge Marin opened in Downtown Sacramento on March 1, 2019. The bronze sculptures in the exhibit will remain on display through November, 2019. The sculptures range in size, with the largest up to four meters high and weighing more than a ton.
Several of the sculptures have been placed in a row on Capitol Mall between 8th and 9th Street. The other sculptures can be found on 11th Street between L and J Streets.
The sculptures were originally exhibited on the Paseo de la Reforma in Mexico City. Other locations the sculptures have been exhibited include Tel-Aviv, Berlin, Singapore, Quebec, San Jose, Los Angeles, Madrid, Cairo, Kuwait, Bangkok, Guangzhou, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Baku, Izmir, Ankara, and Abu Dhabi.
Jorge Marin was born in Mexico in 1963. He studied graphic design at the National School of Plastic Arts in Mexico and art restoration at the National School of Conservation, Restoration, and Museology.
In 2010, Jorge Marin received critical attention for the installation of Wings of the City. Marin installed disembodied wings throughout Mexico City, Dallas and Denver to encourage greater collaboration and respect between the United States and Mexico.
The sculptor lives and works in Mexico City, Mexico.
Comments on the Jorge Marin Wings of the City Exhibition?
I personally was very pleased to see Wings of the City exhibited in Sacramento – and I predict that many a selfie will be taken in front of the disembodied wings. What was your reaction to the exhibit? Do you have a favorite sculpture?


CARLSBAD — It's official, one of the city's most recognizable groups is supporting Measure A.
The Carlsbad Firefighters Association (Local 3730) union threw its weight behind Caruso Affiliated's proposal Thursday to develop a luxury mall and open space on the south shore of Agua Hedionda Lagoon and off Cannon Road.
The Coast News reported in December the union was endorsing the measure, while Thursday's press conference served as the formal announcement at the information center off Cannon Road.
Measure A proposes commercial development on about 26 acres, while designating 176 acres for open space use. The special election is Feb. 23.
Union President Chris Lawrence said once he and the firefighters read the "facts," it was an easy choice. He said he met Rick Caruso, who owns Caruso Affiliated and is the major funding source, several times and then discussed the matter during union meetings.
The discussions with Caruso, Lawrence said, covered all aspects of the plan including one of the biggest for first responders — traffic.
It has been one of the most fiercely disputed aspects of the plan by opponents, who say the thousands of additional motorists on Interstate 5, Cannon Road and Paseo Del Norte will clog the area.
Lawrence, however, countered those claims citing traffic analysis, which was part of a compilation of several independent firms analyzing dozens of factors of the proposal including traffic. He said the final data shows improved traffic times including light changes and traffic will be improved at most of the 30-plus intersections reviewed.
Lawrence said the association will take on any responsibility asked of it, but said their work will center on placing signs and pounding the pavement.
Rick Caruso, meanwhile, said he is "grateful" for the support of the firefighters. In addition, he also addressed the $9.4 million his company will pay for traffic improvements, which doesn't include funds to Caltrans for the widening of I-5.
The CFA joins a growing list of endorsements for the project. Earlier this week, 15 Carlsbad Village business owners announced their approval for Measure A in addition to a dozen current and former North County elected officials voicing support.

We are an event-driven...
We are an event-driven company
With 15 years' experience in the broadcast industry, Michele Gosetti brings a deep understanding of the field to his role as Head of Global Sales at Eurovision Services. He aims to use the relationships he has built up in the industry over the years, as well as his global network of contacts and his expertise in developing alternative solutions for content creation and distribution to take Eurovision Services to the next level.
What is Eurovision Services' unique selling proposition?
We have a track record of 60 years in the industry acting as a one-stop shop for event organizers and sports federations, offering a range of services from host broadcasting to signal contribution and distribution and content personalization. Our mission is to allow event organizers and sports federations to focus on sport, athletes and putting on a great event. Setting up and managing broadcast operations can be a complex and costly business, requiring specific expertise, equipment and infrastructure. Outsourcing each part to a different supplier can be risky and demands a lot of coordination. This is how our fully integrated solution fits perfectly. We focus on content and maximizing the reach and value of the event for the federation or event organizer.
As a wholly-owned subsidiary of the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) we have a privileged relationship with broadcasters, so we understand their needs and the challenges that they face. It helps us to design the services and advise the federations how they can achieve best broadcast coverage for their events.
We are also lucky to have the best talent from the worlds of media and broadcasting working for us, which gives us a significant competitive advantage.
What are the challenges of having such a broad portfolio of services?
Eurovision Services S.A. officially launched earlier this year. So we are a very young company. But we are backed by an organization with decades of experience. One of our top priorities is structuring our product portfolio. I can broadly group our products into four main categories that cover the entire spectrum of broadcast operations: production, distribution, personalization and online reach. We are recognized as an industry leader in distribution, thanks to our Eurovision Global Network, but this is just one of our many services and we are actively moving our network to IP and developing new services to help customers reach their audiences online. In each of these four categories we have different modules that customers can choose according to their needs. Since Eurovision Services is a relatively new name on the scene, we also have a lot of work to do on marketing and communications to position both the company and our products. Grouping them into these four categories has been a good starting point and we already showcased our digital ecosystem, with some of our most recent personalization and online services, at the IBC in September.
How does the creation of Eurovision Services as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the EBU help you in your role?
It makes a huge difference. As a subsidiary of the EBU, we can be more agile and react quicker to opportunities. We continue to serve EBU members, but we also have greater flexibility to offer our services to new customers. The purpose of EBU is different to that of Eurovision Services, EBU being an association of public service media, Eurovision Services a service provider operating in a very dynamic and competitive market. The split helps our staff, clients and partners to understand the different missions and what we have in common.
We have already made some organizational changes to give the company a more business-oriented approach, in the sales area I'm responsible for we have incorporated our bid management team into the global sales and marketing department to have a closer alignment, quicker response time and consequently better serve our clients.
How is the sales team organized?
I strongly believe that we have to be close to our clients, wherever they are. Eurovision Services operates offices in Washington, New York, Singapore and Beijing where our staff supports customers through the entire sales and event delivery process. We also rely on a network of partners located in different countries to get even closer to our customers and better understand these markets. We obviously also have a commercial team in Geneva, looking after central European territories and coordinating global activities.
In fact, we've just had our annual Global Sales meeting with coworkers coming from various parts of the world, sharing experiences and brainstorming new ideas. The diverse skill base allows us to be more open and creative and offer a broader and more adaptable range of products and services.
What do you see as the main sales driver over the next five years?
Technology and changing consumer habits have opened up new ways of distributing content. Audiences increasingly want to view content when it suits them, how it suits them and wherever they happen to be. It's a big challenge for event organizers and federations. Eurovision Services are uniquely equipped to meet these needs with our digital ecosystem.
For example, the athletes and sponsors can use event content on their own online accounts, multiplying the exposure for an event, but they need to get access to event content, live or with a minimum delay, without any specialized broadcast equipment. This Is what our near-live clipping service does, it provides an easy-to-use web platform where customers can access content within 15 seconds of the live action, search for specific elements within the content (footage of a particular athlete, for example) and immediately start editing and personalizing a clip with pre-set branding and logos.
Another major trend worth mentioning is personalization. Audiences used to the online experience expect TV programmes to be adapted in their language, alphabet, units etc. Our remote graphics solution is a particularly cost-effective way of personalizing graphical overlays at the point of reception. As sports federations and event organizers look to maximize coverage and use all distribution channels, I think there will be increasing demand for these cost-effective personalization services.
How will Eurovision Services cope with the increasingly varied needs of stakeholders in the future?
We are increasingly switching from hardware and permanent infrastructure to lighter and more flexible, software-based solutions, integrating 3rd party services and linking customer interfaces with ours. As technology evolves so quickly, I think that it is no longer enough just to keep abreast of the latest developments. We need to be one step ahead, pre-empting and even developing the technologies and tools for the future. Earlier this year we opened Eurovision Labs in Madrid, bringing together the finest talent in the city's renowned broadcasting cluster. Our team in Madrid is already working on the next generation of media products and services and I am excited to see what they will be and, of course, to present them to our customers.

MARQUETTE — Choosing health insurance is a complicated process.
MSU Extension and AARP tried to make the process go a little smoother with a session on navigating the health insurance market. The session taught the public about the Affordable Care Act, how to analyze their heath insurance records, and how to budget for health insurance.
Waitrovich said it is important to be able to compare one plan to another when choosing health insurance.
"Really the best way to do it is to gather your records from the past year and look at the kind of benefits you've used from your health insurance in the past and then look at the health insurance policies you're considering to find out if they have those same benefits," she said.
A session will be held in Escanaba is holding a session on Thursday, October 23rd, at the Escanaba MSU Extension Office from 3 to 5 p.m.


Third Time's the Charm turned out beautifully. That pattern really showcases those prints. Hope you get some time to snuggle with it soon.
Another great finish Kelly! Thanks for sharing my scrappy sampler again. It was a lot of fun to lay out. Wish you and your family a wonderful 2017!
I love all your fabrics in this quilt, such a pretty range!
Kelly, I love your pieces! The black, white and red really grabbed me!
My first thought was, 'gasp, look at all those curves'. I really need to buy the Baubles pattern and add it to my go-to patterns for gifts. Thank you for the linkup!
This is great! Nice job! Truly one of my favorite quilt patterns!
Yeah for a quilt for you. I always thought the blocks in this pattern were rounded, but just realized that they're not. Wow.
You totally deserve to keep a quilt for yourself - it is so gorgeous in those Joel Dewberry fabrics! I love that range and must start collecting some more of it so I can make Baubles too.

Sectarian massacre of Shiite Syrian civilians
Posted on April 17, 2017 by petrel41
This video says about itself:
RAW FOOTAGE: Explosion hits Syrian evacuation bus convoy in Aleppo
WARNING: DISTURBING IMAGES
At least 100 killed after explosion targets bus convoy in Aleppo transporting residents of two besieged Shia villages. An explosion near a bus convoy waiting to enter the Syrian city of Aleppo killed or wounded several people on Saturday, pro-government media outlets, pro-opposition activists and a monitor reported.
A military media unit run by Damascus ally Hezbollah said a suicide attacker had detonated a car bomb near the convoy.
By Jordan Shilton in the USA:
Syrian rebels massacre at least 126 civilians in suicide bomb blast
A convoy of buses evacuating residents from the government-held towns of Foua and Kefraya in Syria's Idlib province was targeted by a suicide bomber Saturday, claiming the lives of at least 126 civilians. The attack occurred west of Aleppo as the buses made their way to government-controlled areas.
The evacuation of the residents of the two towns began Friday morning and was part of a swap deal agreed between the government of Bashar al-Assad and rebel forces. In exchange for allowing the evacuation of residents from Foua and Kefraya, rebels agreed to resettle the populations of Madaya and Zabadani, two towns they control near Damascus. In total, around 7,250 people were evacuated from the four towns. It was part of a broader plan brokered by Iran and Qatar to move up to 30,000 people over a 60-day period.
According to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, which is linked to the rebels, 68 children were killed in the blast. Other sources have put the figure as high as 80.
The observatory confirmed the blast was caused by an improvised explosive device carried in a vehicle, backing up an earlier report on Syrian state TV which said the attackers used a van meant for delivering aid to gain access to the area.
An al-Jazeera reporter at the scene described how many of the buses were completely destroyed and dead bodies littered the ground. Ambulances rushed those from the scene who had been injured.
Although no group has yet claimed responsibility for the attack, it occurred in a rebel-controlled area. Ahrar al-Sham, a conservative Islamist militia, condemned the bombing and called for an international investigation to determine who was to blame.
In stark contrast to the moral outrage expressed by politicians and the media in the wake of the alleged gas attack in Khan Sheikhoun earlier this month, which the Trump administration seized upon to launch an illegal missile strike on a Syrian air base, the death of over 100 Syrians in a suicide bombing—substantially more than the number who died in the alleged gas attack—prompted virtually no condemnation from the Western powers.
The US State Department released a weasel-worded statement which, while condemning the killings, sought to strike a pose of impartiality and refused even to identify the rebel Islamist militias as being responsible. "We deplore any act that sustains or empowers extremists on all sides including today's attack," said State Department spokesman Mark Toner.
At a comparable stage in the aftermath of the Khan Sheikhoun incident, just hours after the alleged attack, US government officials had already acted as judge, jury and executioner, and were proclaiming the guilt of the Assad regime without presenting any evidence.
President Donald Trump, who invoked the deaths of "beautiful babies" and the need to defend the "civilized world" in justifying his April 6 cruise missile strike, which killed nine civilians, did not even comment on the bloodbath carried out by forces linked to the American CIA.
For their part, the servile corporate-controlled media reported on the incident, if at all, in a largely routine manner.
The New York Times published a lengthy front-page report concentrating almost exclusively on the crimes committed by Assad during the war, alleging that "the largest number of violations by far has been by the Syrian government." It criticized the failure to bring government officials before the International Criminal Court in the Hague and blamed Russia for blocking any action by the UN Security Council.
The general indifference shown by the political and media establishment to the victims of this brutal massacre exposes once again the hypocrisy of the crusaders for "human rights" in the United States and the European imperialist powers. It demonstrates the fraudulent character of the propaganda campaign in the wake of the alleged gas attack, designed to conceal the real aims of US imperialist intervention in Syria: regime change in Damascus and the consolidation of Washington's hegemonic position in the energy-rich Middle East against any challenge from its geopolitical rivals.
The reason for the lack of reaction is not hard to find. While it remains unclear precisely which faction of the rebels carried out the mass slaughter, Washington and its Gulf allies have the main responsibility for arming the collection of right-wing Islamist militias fighting the Assad dictatorship and enabling them to continue the civil war. The opposition is now dominated by the al-Nusra Front, which was formerly affiliated to Al Qaeda.
If any journalist were honest enough to follow the evidence, they would have to apportion a significant part of the blame for the bus convoy bombing to the criminal and reckless policies of US imperialism. More than six years after instigating the Syrian civil war, Washington has the blood of an estimated 500,000 Syrians on its hands.
This does not even take into account the upwards of 1 million people killed as a result of the illegal invasion of Iraq in 2003, the hundreds of thousands of deaths due to wars either led or sponsored by Washington in Afghanistan, Yemen, and Somalia, and the millions throughout the region forced to flee their homes as a consequence of conflict and societal breakdown.
The highly selective concern shown for "human rights" issues by the representatives of US imperialism is nothing new. Saturday's bombing came less than a month after a single US air strike launched as part of the ruthless onslaught against Mosul, Iraq's second largest city, claimed the lives of as many as 300 civilians sheltering in a basement. This horrific war crime, coming on top of the thousands of civilian deaths that have occurred since the US-backed offensive was launched last October, was largely buried by the media.
The ruling class considers the deaths of civilians to be collateral damage—a price worth paying in their ruthless struggle to uphold US imperialist interests in the Middle East and around the globe. Barely 24 hours after the bus bombing, Trump's National Security Adviser General H.R. McMaster vowed in an ABC News interview that Washington was ready to escalate tensions with Russia still further, not only over Syria, but over Europe as well.
McMaster said of Russia's alliance with Assad, "So Russia's support for that kind of horrible regime, that is a party to that kind of a conflict, is something that has to be drawn into question as well as Russia's subversive actions in Europe. And so I think it's time though, now, to have those tough discussions with Russia."

Little princess is turning four tomorrow. She's been reminding all of us that 'My birthday is almost coming'. She's so grown. She's so beautiful.
When i was just 3 months to the due date, doc said that my baby was not lying in the correct position .Another said the same a month later. We prayed. We prayed that all would go well. It was a miracle that during my last month baby was in the correct position alright. No complications.
I remember that interesting morning i had her. Half past 3 in the morning June 12 2006. She coughed and then she cried. She was 3.3kgs. I remember what i thought after i looked at her well manicured little nails and slim shapely fingers. This one..she's gonna be a beauty freak! How true this has turned out to be.
Little miss is fussy about details and loves decorating things…and herself. She sneaks up on me when i go to the shower and applies my lip balm or any other beauty product she can lay her hands on. She loves bling and always notices every time i buy some new bling. She will tell me. "Thach a nice bling". ?
She knows what she wants and goes for it. She is a perfectionist. No grey areas. She loves things done her own way. This makes us be at loggerheads sometimes. But we make up soon enough.
As she turns four, i thank God for the special gift of her. She's my baby you know…Happy Birthday baby girl!
Happy birthday Vanessa!You've grown so big now that you're 4.
Betsy, aw! Thats so lovely. Thank you!
still reading more of your blogs. may God give you and your daughter more years…..such a beauty Kajune is.

Q: No ability to publish newer build for external testers - how to revoke "In Review" status? I have a 5 builds in testflight, but have no ability to publish last one.

You can only submit one build from version 1.0.0 to Beta App Review. Once the build you submitted is approved, you can submit additional builds.

Question is:

*

*How to revoke "Waiting for Review" for before-last-build ?

*How to set "Waiting for Review" status for latest build ?

A: I believe that there is possible to do more elegant way the same but...
Hack solution

*

*ExternalTestingGroup -> Testers List -> Edit -> (select all testers) -> Remove

*Add the same testers to the same group

This resolved my issue

If anybody know better way - please post it.
It's insane to do the same on each build.

DeMaree, D., C. Monohan, S. Riggins, and D. Brown. Subsurface Waters at Malakoff Diggins Pit, Northbloom Field Tunnel and Hiller Tunnel. California State University, Chico. Summer 2013.
Malakoff Diggins, a historic hydraulic mine, has the potential to degrade habitat in the Humbug Creek and South Yuba River watershed with discharges of sediment, copper, mercury, nickel and zinc. Subsurface waters in three areas of Malakoff Diggins, (1) North Bloomfield Tunnel, including eight airshafts, six contained standing water, (2) Hiller Tunnel, and (3) borings in the Pit near Hiller Tunnel, were studied to identify potential sources of metals. Water chemistry (pH, electrical conductivity, total metals and common ions) similarities and physical characteristics (water level) between mine features were used to determine the connections between mine features and subsurface water flow. The metal concentrations were variable in areas studied at Malakoff Diggins. All portals and shafts of the North Bloomfield Tunnel were at least partially blocked, however the downstream portal of the tunnel and Shaft 5, had continuous surface water discharge to Humbug Creek. The degree to which the standing water between the shafts are connected, through fractured rock or otherwise, was difficult to determine, however some shafts, specifically Shaft 5 (had the highest metal concentrations) and 6, had similar water chemistries. Two borings of four shallow groundwater borings in the Pit, P-1 and P-2, had similar water chemistry. The borings in the Pit had higher concentrations of metals than the surface waters in the Pit and Hiller Tunnel. The concentrations of metals in the waters at Malakoff Diggins are likely related to concentrations of suspended sediment and represent an ongoing source of heavy metals to surface waters.
Student Bio
David graduated from UC Santa Cruz 2007 with a Chemistry B.S. He then when to work for Environmental Testing Labs, and mainly tested for metals and common ions, in a variety of media ranging from water and soil to Chinese Herbal Medicines.

David is currently in the Environmental Science PhD program at Oregon State University, and his dissertation project is on vadose zone nitrogen transport and stakeholder outreach and engagement in La Pine OR, in relation to the controversial issue of nitrate contamination in well water in the La Pine Area.


Orlando, FL – September 22, 2015 – The Florida Association of Chamber Professionals (FACP) evaluated several Chambers throughout the state of Florida for their annual FACP awards. Chambers throughout the state of Florida, ranging in size and concentration were nominated for these awards, with only a handful taking one home. Throughout the different categories for nomination, it was Orlando's Hispanic Chamber of Commerce (HCCMO) that would take home the FACP Communications Award, and its President, Diana Bolívar, the FACP Executive of the Year Award.
These awards highlight different aspects of the Chamber Profession, and are set to recognize those who excel in a variety of functions. Communication is an essential function for any organization that wants to thrive in a constantly cluttered market. Chambers in particular must develop ways to engage its members and the community.
In an evolving digital world, the HCCMO has been able to ensure that their communication is delivered through as many mediums as possible. By adopting change, the HCCMO has been able to reach key milestones in its communication efforts, and has been recognized by the FACP with the Communication Award. Such milestones include a redesigned website, a visually appealing electronic newsletter, and maintaining engagement throughout the year with the use of video and social media.
The HCCMO has been a previous recipient of the Communications Award in 2013 and 2009, for outstanding communication and marketing material. However this is the first year where its leadership is recognized for the Executive of the Year Award.
The Executive of the Year Award is bestowed on an executive (President, CEO or Executive Director) of a Chamber of Commerce, who has demonstrated qualities of a great leader. The criteria for this award included success in maintaining strong internal administration, the ability to maintain and increase membership, and an enhancement of the chamber profession among other factors.
"It is a privilege and an honor to be recognized among your peers. We continue to strive for excellence and innovation at the HCCMO for the benefit of our members and the business community," Bolívar said.
In addition to being at the forefront of the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce of Metro Orlando, President Bolívar is a highly active and engaged citizen of the Orlando community. With her involvement on numerous boards, advisory councils, and committees in local organizations, she has been able to impact business and economic growth throughout Central Florida; demonstrating the qualities of a community leader and Chamber professional.

Luigi Scrosati (Milan,  - Milan, 1869) est un peintre italien de peintures florales, qui fut actif au .

Biographie

Luigi Scrosati est un autodidacte qui a débuté dans l'entreprise de vitraux artistiques des frères Bertini, puis il travailla comme décorateur autononome (fresques) dans les plus prestigieux chantiers des années 1850 comme les palais milanais de Litta de Vedano al Lambro, la Villa Ghirlanda à Cinisello, le palais Serbelloni et le cabinet dantesque de Gian Giacomo Poldi Pezzoli.

Après 1857, Luigi Scrosati a produit de nombreuses peintures de figures, de genre et des natures mortes florales à l'aquarelle en se relançant en tant que peintre à chevalet à la suite d'une grave maladie paralysant ses membres inférieurs.

Ses toiles sont dominées par une peinture à touches avec une luminosité chatoyante ajournant le genre des peintures floréales de l'école de Lyon. Ainsi il innova un nouveau genre pictural qui lui valut en 1863 la chaire de décoration à l'Académie de Brera à Milan.

Divers tableaux de sa composition sont visibles au musée Museo Poldi Pezzoli à Milan.

Principales œuvres

Ave Maria, huile sur carton de 31 cm × 22 cm.
