WakeEdge
WakeEd's timely WakeEdge alerts keep you informed about breaking news in public education and the Wake County Public School System.
The post-pandemic three R's of education: Recover, restore, and rebuild
Amid all the discussions about getting kids back into the classrooms there has been little focus of what schools will look like next fall and what students will need to recover. However, throughout the COVID-19 ordeal, there has been plenty of discussion about learning loss, lack of equity, and the social and emotional health of students.
WakeEd Board of Directors: Schools need support and flexibility during COVID-19
Earlier this week, the WakeEd Board of Directors sent a letter to all members of the NC House and Senate who represent Wake County, and to members of the House Select Committee on COVID-19's working group on education. The letter encourages the continuation of pay and...
National Reading Scores Show NC Literacy Instruction Needs Improvement
The disappointing news last week that the state's overall reading proficiency of fourth graders has dropped since the start of the Read to Achieve law reveals some major flaws with that program, and it's not with the teachers.
Stagnant School Performance Reveals It's Time For A Change
The North Carolina school performance grades released last week continue to tell the same stories across the state: the schools with well off students perform better than schools with students from lower income families. That's not what the school accountability is supposed to be telling us about our schools.
A 15-Point Win for School Report Cards
A bill on its way to the governor for signature will prevent a major upheaval in the way school performance is measured. It's an issue that WakeEd and others have actively pursued for three years.
County Manager David Ellis Proposes $36.5 million more for WCPSS

Belt-Tightening Forcing Tough Choices for WCPSS
The Wake County Public School System is preparing for the 2018-19 school year by looking at ways to reduce its budget after revenue sources come up short.
WakeEd Board Approves Resolution Supporting Additional Funding for WCPSS for 2018-19
The WakeEd Board of Directors has adopted a formal resolution in support of increased funding for Wake County Public School System for the 2018-19.
WCPSS must maintain current level of service
WCPSS is requesting $58.9 million in new spending for the 2018-19 school year. This includes $48 million in new spending necessary to maintain the current level of service.
County Manager's Budget Proposes $30 Million More for Schools
Wake County Manager David Ellis proposed increasing the spending for WCPSS by $30 million in fiscal 2018-19. That's well below the $58.9 million the school board's requested increase. The school system says it will take $48 million just to maintain the same level of service as this school year.

Q: I installed git v2.5.1 from source and it has no 'pull' command I'm trying to install, as user, an updated git on a Debian wheezy box, which ships with 1.7.10 by default. I cloned https://github.com/git/git into $HOME/git-git (so that $HOME/git was available for the installation) and followed the instructions in INSTALL.
The instructions in INSTALL said it should Just Work if I ran it as user, i.e. install it to ~/bin, but it didn't, so I specified the prefix manually.
Did I forget a step?
~/git-git/git$ sudo apt-get install libcurl4-gnutls-dev \
    libexpat1-dev gettext libz-dev libssl-dev \
    autoconf asciidoc xmlto docbook2x
~/git-git/git$ git checkout v2.5.1  # This is with git 1.7.10
~/git-git/git$ make configure
~/git-git/git$ ./configure --prefix=$HOME/git
~/git-git/git$ make all doc info
Time passes...
~/git-git/git$ make install
~/git-git/git$ git pull
git: 'pull' is not a git command. See 'git --help'.

Did you mean this?
    shell

$PATH contains my ~/git/bin. Perhaps something else needs to point to one of these dirs?
$ ls ~/git
bin  lib  libexec  share

$ which git
/home/<me>/git/bin/git

Edited - I did do make install; I accidentally overlooked it while going through my history.
Edited 2 - It works if I set GIT_EXEC_PATH. Why do I need to set this? The INSTALL file mentions that I can use it if I want to use git without installing; but I did install. Shouldn't this set things correctly?
$ export GIT_EXEC_PATH=$HOME/git/libexec/git-core
$ git pull
Already up-to-date.

There are some interesting things happening around Hettie's Patch this year, and the next couple of months will be busy to say the least! We have a new class beginning this Friday with Christine Millar where she will be teaching some beautiful embroidery techniques. Then we have The Brocante in the Barossa teaching Annie Sloan Chalk Paint™ workshop on Saturday. Towards the end of February we will have Judy Newman teaching a weekend workshop (for the very first time at Hettie's). Then in mid March we have Margaret Sampson George teaching another jam packed weekend workshop. It's good to be busy, but it's better when it's Sunday. Happy Sunday everyone!
Christine Millar is starting classes at Hettie's.


From the looks of things, drum & bass is enjoying something of a resurgence. Crews like New York's Mathematics have injected what looked to be a stagnant genre with healthy doses of house-inflected melody and sexiness. However, the sound remains a hotbed of formulaic production and clichéd composition. Dope Ammo Records' latest compilation is a prime example. It features track after track that removes any shred of innovation from jungle's poppier permutations by grafting them onto simplistic drum loops and irritating filter squelches. To be fair, avid fans of the funked-up and discofied sounds of Shy FX or Defunked label releases will like this comp-it has those same influences, albiet with the harder beat textures of producers like Hazzard to give it edge. But overall, despite the running beats and b-lines aplenty, Uprising offers little in the way of innovation.


2019 8U Head coach for travel team. Will play in MSBL and 4 local tournaments. Must have played baseball through high school. Additional playing experience a plus. No coaching experience required. This is a paid position.

She has presented at the URECA symposiums in 2020 and 2021; and also presented at Mount Sinai and Stony Brook Young Investigator's Review symposiums. Outside of the lab, she has been involved in Students Helping Honduras and the SBU Bioethics Society. She is also an active caseworker for the Red Cross.Bismi plans to pursue a Master's degree at Stony Brook in Biophysics and Biomedical Sciences starting in the fall .
Thomas Conway is a Linguistics and Mathematics major who began his research while working with Grace Wivell and Prof. Lori Repetti on the 'Lio Education Materials Project' in January of 2022. Thomas' research interests involve linguistic typology, and temporal and spatial semantics. His current work examines serial verb constructions in an Austronesian language, Lio. His project explores the semantic and syntactic properties of these verbal constructions, in efforts to compare them cross-linguistically to other languages that exhibit this phenomenon. Thomas has presented his work at the Cornell Undergraduate Linguistics Colloquium this past April and will also be presenting this work at the upcoming URECA Symposium. After graduation, Thomas is looking to present this work at the Linguistic Society of America conference in January of 2023. He also plans to continue working with Grace Wivell on Lio, as it is an understudied languageand there is much left to explore, linguistically. Ultimately, Thomas plans on pursuing his Ph.D. in Linguistics.
Sara Jaramillo is an Anthropology major with a minor in Latin American and Caribbean Studies who got involved with research in the Summer of 2021 at the Zooarchaeology Lab under the supervision of Dr. Katheryn Twiss. For her honors thesis project, she measured the densities of fish bones from different houses in the Mesopotamian city of Ur to better understand the differential exploitation and consumption of this key resource. She presented the results of this study at the annual conference of the Society for American Archaeology in April of 2022 in Chicago and at URECA 2022. This past summer Sara worked for the African American Museum in Southampton under the supervision of Dr. Jennifer Anderson from the History Department. With Professor Anderson, she explored the African American-owned businesses' impact on the local community in the mid-twentieth century--also investigating the interactions between migrant workers' communities on Eastern Long Island and the African American businesses of the area. For the past year, she served as Vice President of the Undergraduate Anthropology Society. This summer Sara will participate in a community-based archaeological project with the Eastern Pequot Tribal Nation and UMASS that will explore the survival of Indigenous People in colonial New England. She plans to continue her research with Professor Twiss and work towards the publication of her thesis results.
Amanda Lee is a physics and astronomy major in the Women in Science and Engineering (WISE) Honors program. Amanda has current research interests in studying star formation and the evolution of the interstellar medium (ISM) in galaxies and has been working with Dr. Jin Koda since her sophomore year. She has worked with Dr. Koda to investigate the main drivers of interstellar turbulence by using a simulation of a Milky-Way like galaxy and is currently working with Dr. Koda to study the galaxy M83 by using VLA observations. In the summer of 2021, Amanda was an REU student at the University of Hawaii, and worked with Dr. Adwin Boogert and Ryan Dungee to study the CO gas around the massive young binary Mon R2 IRS3. She plans to present this work at this summer's American Astronomical Society's 240th meeting. After graduating, Amanda will pursue a PhD in astronomy at UMass Amherst.
Liomard J Mesa is a senior majoring in Computer Science. Software Engineering has always been the major passion Liomard has had in his studies, an area that he has always had lingering curiosity beyond the classroom. He has been involved in research under the mentorship of Professor Richard Mckenna since his sophomore year. Research has been crucial for him during his journey through Stony Brook. Lio's research work as part of the Wireframer project enriched his knowledge by allowing him to delve deeply into web development. The Wireframer is an online web application designed for local computer science students to use to create wireframes and mock-ups of user interfaces. It has been utilized by CSE 316 students as a free tool to develop user interfaces for their apps in previous semesters. In a manner, research acted as a scale model of what he may encounter in the near future. He presented his work in the URECA symposium 2022. It is worth noting that Lio's research expertise earned as part of the Wireframer project was a crucial factor in his internship search in 2021. As a result of this, he was offered a position as a software engineer intern for the summer of 2021, which, through extensions, he still retains today. Lio was also part of the Diversity Professional Leadership Network Externship during his senior year and was also a teaching assistant for the course "Software Engineering - CSE 416" at Stony Brook.
Alice Mo is a Philosophy major from Brooklyn, NY. She has been doing research on Plato since Fall 2020 when she sat in on a graduate seminar taught by Prof. Alan Kim on Plato's
Parmenides. She wrote a paper on Platonic metaphysics. The following Spring semester, she pursued an independent study with Prof. Clyde Miller; she wrote a paper on dialectic,
specifically in Plato's Sophist. During the summer of 2021, she was a participant in the Summer Seminar in Philosophy at the University of Colorado Boulder, an intensive program for advanced undergraduates on the topic of epistemology and ethics. During her senior year, Alice worked on her honors thesis, titled, "A Search for Explanations: Platonic Replies to Aristotle's Objections of Separation and Regress," under the supervision of Prof. Kim. She was inducted into Phi Beta Kappa and received the SUNY Chancellor's Award for Student Excellence. She will be a student at the Ancient Greek Intensive program at the CUNY Latin/Greek Institute this summer, and will be pursuing a Master's in Ancient Philosophy at the University of Oxford in the Fall.
Karen. How did being involved in research enhance your education?
Bismi. Participating in research has helped me put concepts that I learned in my biology and biochemistry classes to practice in the laboratory. It is one thing to learn about concepts in a classroom and another to be able to practice lab techniques in research. It has also allowed me to digest scientific literature as well. I have learned skills that make me feel prepared for my future endeavors as well as make me more interested in the field of neurobiology!
Lio. Being involved in research enhanced my education by helping me figure out early which computer science fields I really felt interest in. It allowed me to confirm my interest in web development and further dive into it.
Alice. Doing research in philosophy has been an extremely valuable experience as it has taught me how to think, read, and write better, which are skills that will benefit me in any future endeavor. It has challenged me to critically analyze the arguments of others, and to consider deeply what I think about both the approach and the conclusions of how people tackle some of the most fundamental problems. Research can also allow you to build a strong relationship with your advisor which can be extremely rewarding, academically, professionally, and personally.
Amanda. I have been fortunate to be involved in astronomy research projects on both the theoretical and observational side. Research has allowed me to apply and expand upon what I have learned in the classroom, as well as to develop my critical thinking skills. It has been a humbling and rewarding experience.
Karen. What's your favorite aspect of doing research?
Sara. My favorite aspect of doing research in history and archaeology is being able to combine different sources of information to uncover stories that are waiting to be told about past societies. I also find it valuable when such information can be articulated with the present to create a more comprehensive understanding of how past events affect our society today.
Thomas. My favorite aspect of doing research is that there is no foreseeable end to it. While you may have come to a conclusion about a question you may have, there are always other questions that pop-up along the way, and usually by accident. To me, that is the most tantalizing part, you never know where your research will lead you!

WonderRoot investigator has yet to reach out to alleged victims (updated)
Scott Freeman February 28, 2019
Art+Design - Latest NewsLatest News
Three weeks after the WonderRoot board of directors promised an independent investigation of misconduct allegations leveled by a group of artists against former executive director Chris Appleton, the nonprofit's investigator has yet to reach out to any of the alleged victims to hear their stories.
Fifteen artists — seven of them anonymously — posted an open letter on social media on February 7 that accused Appleton of abusive behaviors and demanded his removal. Appleton was placed on leave the next day, and WonderRoot's board issued a statement that promised an investigation by an independent third party.
Ten days later, on February 18, the board accepted Appleton's resignation from the nonprofit, which he helped found in 2004, and said Appleton would continue to consult with WonderRoot during a transition period.
In a letter to WonderRoot's board that was shared with ARTS ATL, the artists who signed the original open letter said they have yet to be contacted by an investigator.
"We are glad to hear you have identified a third-party investigator, although we note that none of us has yet to be contacted," the letter states. "While your impulse to prioritize crisis management and public relations is clear, we are hopeful that, moving forward, you will instead elevate transparency and accountability."
WonderRoot's board has hired Stripe Reputation, an Atlanta crisis management firm. The board issued a statement through Stripe Reputation on February 18 saying a third-party investigator had been identified to "lead an inquiry into the matter." The statement said the board has "strived to understand and address the matter fairly and transparently."
Stripe Reputation's Craig Kronenberger did not respond to an emailed request for comment on Thursday. Individual board members have not been made available to speak to the allegations.
(A representative from Stripe Reputation sent a statement from WonderRoot late Friday afternoon: "As an organization, we care deeply about every person connected to WonderRoot and are committed to creating an organization and work environment worthy of our mission and reflective of the passions and perspectives of those who support us and that we serve. To this end, independent investigators are currently conducting an investigation into the allegations. This investigation is an essential step in our organization's evolution and upon its completion, we will share information about our next steps as an organization.")
WonderRoot cofounder and former executive director Chris Appleton resigned earlier this month.
WonderRoot was formed in 2004 as a nonprofit to promote social justice through art. The organization has evolved into one of Atlanta's most prominent arts nonprofits. It has partnered with the High Museum of Art, MARTA and the Atlanta BeltLine. Most recently, WonderRoot partnered with the Atlanta Super Bowl Host Committee to commission 11 artists to paint murals across the city focused on Atlanta's journey in civil rights and social justice
In their original letter, the 15 signees said the organization under Appleton's leadership had a "top-down culture of inveterate disrespect and intimidation including frequent outbursts and insults, consistent violation of personal and professional boundaries, inappropriate attempts at intimacy . . . and deflection of any responsibility for mistakes."
Both letters were signed by eight members of Atlanta's arts community: MINT founding director Erica Jamison, artists Stephanie Dowda and Amanda Mills (Full disclosure: both Dowda and Mills are past ARTS ATL contributors), Angela Davis Johnson, Jessica Caldas, Matthew Rosenfeld, Jennifer Lobsenz and Stephanie Kong. The letters were also signed anonymously by seven others.
A petition signed by nearly 400 people that condemns "the egregious and systemic harm that has been perpetrated at the behest of . . . Appleton's leadership" was also forwarded to the board.
The letter's signees have also accused the organization's board of directors of enabling the behavior, saying they had brought complaints to board members starting in 2014 that went unheeded.
The signees called on the WonderRoot board to include during the transition process the voices of minorities and artists who have worked with WonderRoot and place them into "the permanent fabric of the leadership structure going forward."
The letter notes that WonderRoot's board has promised transparency and accountability and that those terms are used on the organization's list of official values. "We implore you to demonstrate your values of transparency and accountability," the letter states. "For years, we reached out to the board of directors seeking support and remediation, which was never provided. An investigation that does not explore the board's own complicity in perpetuating harm will not be complete and will fail to make meaningful organizational change."
The signees also said they hope that the person hired to investigate the allegations will reach out not only to those who signed the original letter but to the others who have reached out to board members with similar complaints. "Only an honest internal investigation will eternally arrest the culture of harm at WonderRoot," the letter states.

Our exciting community project will engage and excite people about the importance of King Johns Palace in Kings Clipstone, Mansfield. King Johns Palace is a Grade II Listed building that was used by many of the Kings of England and played an important role in developing connections with other important people in Europe and around the world.
having a range of community events during the year.
We see this opportunity as the start of creating a resource for local people and longer term for visitors to Sherwood Forest, so it can add to the economy of an area that has suffered due to the loss of jobs over the last couple of decades. It will also provide a positive focus for people to be proud of where they live, and be more connected to a common heritage.
Our small charity, The Sherwood Forest Trust, celebrates its 20th anniversary during 2015 and we have worked at King Johns Palace to stabilise the ruins and protect the site for future generations, we have worked with Mickie and Martin Bradley (the passionate owners of the site), English Heritage, Notts County Council and other archaeologists to find out more about the story and importance of the Palace site. Through this work we now know that the story will inspire others, and what better way to crown our anniversary than to bring children and adults to the site, and inspire future generations.
Please vote for our project and we hope that you will want to 'Discover King John's Palace' too.
How do you vote on this website???
A little taster on Channel 4, 8pm, 22 Nov - "Walking Through History". Tony Robinson will be discussing the intriguing ruins of King John's Palace and Sherwood Forest History with Andy Gaunt of Mercian Archaeological Services CIC.
A project that 250 characters will never be enough - the most worth cause not just for this region but nationally and internationally. I support this bid fully.

A Night of Queens
June 11th brought with it a windfall of invitations to some very New York events. Apparently, it was a night fit for a queen or, more accurately, queens. I had to choose between an event at the NYPL with Queen Noor of Jordan, an evening of theater seeing MARY STUART at the Broadhurst Theater or a gala benefit foramFAR hosted by a different sort of queen, "Lady Bunny."
Harriet Walter and Janet McTeer
Despite the unique appeal of each event, I had to choose just one. I went with MARY STUART, because I can't pass up a good Elizabethan drama. I arrived in Times Square directly from work and was still emailing from my Blackberry. Since I had enough time to spare, I took advantage of the new lawn chairs in the middle of Broadway and finished up the last of my emails sitting on a lawn chair right in the middle of the square.
By the time MARY STUART started, my exhaustion hit and despite the intriguing story line, it was a struggle for me to stay awake at first. But then I hit a point (and a second wind) where I was swept away in the language, the rhythm, lyrical dialogue and powerhouse acting of Janet McTeer (as Mary Stuart) and Harriet Walter (as Queen Elizabeth). They truly deserve the title of theater royalty.
Earlier this theater season I saw another member of theater royalty when actor Frank Langella starred in A MAN FOR ALL SEASONS. Though I am a fan of Langella's work, SEASONS didn't stir my emotions the way MARY STUART did. SEASONS gave us a portrait of a complicated and multi-layered man, something we're used to seeing so much in theater that now it's a bit old and overplayed. MARY on the other hand, was fluid, intriguing and dynamic. Perhaps this is because we don't see many women on stage represented as complicated and multi-layered, especially during the time period of MARY.
The big second act rain/rebirth scene left me feeling like I'd witnessed one of those moments in live theater that people talk about for decades; it felt like a privilege. It also perfectly illustrates what I love about live theater: it's a moment shared intimately by the actors and the audience. It only happens once, and, though it's played out again and again, night after night, it's always different. The audience gasps when the mists of rain suddenly come down and I wonder if that same reaction happens nightly. I wonder if rhythms in the character's big monologues change, if the energy is different, how the theater smells (always a combination of upholstery and women's perfume), if someone dropped a line, changed the order, missed their mark or is so caught up in the scene, they almost forget to breathe. Such elements can rearrange the molecules of a production leaving a mark like DNA, one that can never be duplicated — it's there and it's gone in an instant.
But no matter which night you go and which performance you see, the words are intact, the meaning translated; the audience moved. Just like the moment the rain appears on stage (whether you are surprised or not at its appearance), I gasp when I think of the singularity of what I've witnessed and how it can never be completely captured in that way and on that stage again. I suppose that also holds true for any of the other events I could have attended that evening, but MARY STUART captured my spirit. And in witnessing that performance, my very molecules were rearranged.
Janet McTeer as Mary Stuart

Q: Printing multiple variables in tcl I have to print multiple variables in a single puts like this
puts "$n1_$n2_$n3_$n4"

where n1 , n2 , n3 , n4 are 4 variables.
It wont print and will show error n1_ : no such variable
Expected output should be something like this (example)
01_abc_21_akdd

A: Variable names in Tcl can be any string in Tcl, there are no restrictions but if you want to use special characters (those not in the range of a-z, 0-9 and _, and letters in different languages depending on the platform and locale), you have to either brace the expression names or use other workarounds (like with the answer of Hoodiecrow).
What this means is that if you have a variable named abc.d, and if you use $abc.d, the Tcl engine will try to find the variable $abc because . is not a 'normal' character.
But if you have a variable named abc and use $abcd, or $abc_d, then the engine will start looking for the variables abcd or abc_d and not abc.
Because of this, you will have to use braces between the variable name for example:
${n1}

The reason why putting a backslash works is that \ is not a 'normal' character and after reading the above, it should be a little more obvious how things worked.

There are a few things that yet can go in variable names which don't need bracing and still mean something, except that something is 'special':

*

*::: This is usually used for scoping purposes. For instance if you have a global variable named my_var, you can also use $::my_var to refer to it. Here :: tells Tcl that my_var is a global variable. Note that if there are more than two : in a row they will not add up:
% set ::y 5
5
% set ::::y
5
% set :::y
5

:: is usually used to define the namespace the variable is in. For example, $mine::var is a variable called var in the namespace with a name of mine.

*(): These are used for arrays. $arr(key) is a variable with two parts: the array name arr and the key name key. Note: you can have an array named  and a key named  because...
% set () abc
abc
% puts $()
abc
% array get ""
{} abc

There might be some more, but those are the basics you could look out for.

A: Two other ways:
puts "${n1}_${n2}_${n3}_${n4}"

puts [format "%s_%s_%s_%s" $n1 $n2 $n3 $n4]

Documentation: format
(Note: the 'Hoodiecrow' mentioned in Jerry's answer is me, I used that nick earlier.)


Tongue-Tied is an anthology that gives voice to millions of people who, on a daily basis, are denied the opportunity to speak in their own language. First-person accounts by Amy Tan, Sherman Alexie, bell hooks, Richard Rodriguez, Maxine Hong Kingston, and many other authors open windows into the lives of linguistic minority students and their experience in coping in school and beyond. Selections from these writers are presented along with accessible, abridged scholarly articles that assess the impact of language policies on the experiences and life opportunities of minority-language students..


Tonight heralded a weird and wonderful evening of experimental, post-rock noise like none other. With a sold-out show filled with haunting, psychedelic riffs and front-womanship, Bristol was left mesmerised and enchanted.
First on the bill were the eccentric locals, The Evil Usses whose set consisted of 8-bit keyboard rhythms, laden with distorted guitar and chirpy percussive melodies. Bristol is well known for its slew of experimental bands, having been the birthplace of numerous math-rock bands, such as Memory of Elephants and Hoggs Bison.
As a result, the bar has been set impossibly high in the Bristol scene and, while The Evil Usses had a poppier sound, there was a fairly repetitive tone used throughout the set, making for lulls in energy. The disjointed structure was interesting but lacked conviction, despite the technical prowess of the band. Nevertheless, The Evil Usses proved a vibrant colourful opener.
Following were Quodega who provided an organic and impressive sound. The band hail from Cardiff and are the brainchild of Tom Raybould, combining cinematic soundscapes with the powerful drum-work of Kilph Scurlock [The Flaming Lips].
The heaviness of the underlying riffs helped elevate the softer guitar melodies, while the soundscapes provided by Raybould provided an impressive atmosphere, which nodded to post-rock roots. The intimidatingly intense drumming, with its thoughtful fills and accents, helped mould each of the tracks into cohesive pieces which excited and commanded attention.
The arrival of Deerhoof engulfed the venue in a giddy energy. The whole set was a captivating, haunting and high-octane pop nightmare. Satomi Matsuzaki (bass, lead vocals) provided terrifying punctuation of each of the tracks with an energy that was truly infectious.
What's most impressive about Deerhoof is that despite the aggressive, technically-impressive riffs, the band maintains your attention and participation. The whole set was unlike anything seen in the experimental scene; it's easy to recognise how Deerhoof have garnered a reputation as a heavyweight pioneer in the scene. Each member's parts complimented and enriched the next, and despite choppy time signatures and the occasional aggressive descent into madness, the whole band played seamlessly together.
Being present at a Deerhoof gig is like eating bubblegum ice cream in a horror house. Each track is so starkly different from the last and the dulcet vocals create a melancholic dissociation from the world beyond the venue. Deerhoof are one of the most bizarre and exciting bands to grace the indie scene, with a live experience that is unparalleled.

Conquering Putinism
Author : Edward Lucas
Source : tyzhden.ua
Confronting Putinism abroad is much easier than fight it at home. On the occasion of the 25th anniversary of the failed coup in Moscow it should be remembered as important lesson for states that have emerged (in the case of the Baltic states - revived) after the collapse of the Soviet Union, as well as their allies

In 1991 we celebrated a double victory: the collapse of the Evil Empire that enslaved our neighbors and set a choice for the West - nuclear war or defeat, and the fall of communism with its weak economic system, which was implemented by means of political repression.
The first victory, it seems, is still important. Russia has not become the world superpower. Its empire, or rather the sphere of "harsh" influence extends only to the territory of shiftless satraps - Abkhazia, South Ossetia, Transnistria, "DPR" and "LPR". In Asia, China overshadows it. In general, Russia is a regional threat and creates a mess. But it is rather just because of the weakness of the West, not through the power of Russians.
The second victory was more partial. To tell you the truth, no one (especially the Russians) do not believe that the socialist planned economy is effective. But the eradication of Soviet political heritage proved to be more difficult. One-party communist system that was based on the dictatorship of the proletariat and other Marxist-Leninist dogmas disappeared, but it was replaced with a muddy cocktail of weak institutions and impunity wealthy powers, almighty security forces, corruption and desperate and helpless society.

Firmly on the foundations of international standards of political freedom stand only three states that were once in Soviet borders: Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. The same is mostly true relating to countries of the former Warsaw Pact, however, in Hungary and Poland, there are disturbing trends close to Putinism: the politicization of the judicial system, persecution of political rivals, contempt for independent institutions and artificially increased xenophobia. Echoes of these destructive trends in the Brexit campaign and in the US presidential race cause worry for the political health of other countries.
And amid all of our weaknesses Russia increasingly using explicit and hidden tools against us: in skilled and surprising manner. We mostly can't counter this threat. US and Western Europe require more serious safety culture: societies of our countries need more awareness of the actual dangers.
Instead, the former captive nations who are well aware of the dangers are threatened with another point: too sharp reaction. When the country is faced with the influx of propaganda, one is tempted to restrict media freedom. At the risk of sabotage is a risk of catching spy mania and allow erosion of civil liberties. When economic instruments of war are applied to the country, a seductive solution seems control through subsidies, quotas, taxes and so on.

All these dangers are also related to Ukraine, where political culture is eroded by continuous war in the East. Fighting corruption stalled, Prosecutor General's Office is in open conflict with those who, despite the obstacles, fight abuse. Journalists who do their job, pose uncomfortable questions, find interesting information and publish it are accused of aiding the enemy and cooperation with it. This is not the reason which protesters on Maidan risked their life for.
Looking back at the past 25 years, remember that structural stress points - a necessary component of democracy. We, journalists, officials, lawyers, politicians, businessmen, religious leaders, academics and ordinary citizens play by the same rules, although in different teams. Openness, fairness and diversity always lead to errors and confusion, but it is better than a system where everything is controlled from above in the name of unity and patriotism. If an urgent need to confront Putinism pushes us to establish the same Putinism in our own countries, then Russian leader's victory can be considered convincing as so as journey of Russian tanks in our capitals.

It's now or never for the Ottawa Senators
Murray ready to trade…
– The Senators who have had their part of difficulties this year compare to the shortened season last year extended general manager Bryan Murray through the year of 2016. Murray was given a non-official window of opportunity by owner Eugene Melnyck to bring the Stanley Cup in Ottawa which means Murray will have to make moves to make it happen. In discussion with TSN NHL Insider and ESPN columnist Pierre Lebrun, Murray declared: "I think we do have a good number of young people I would think other organizations would be interested in." In the conversation he struck the name of Curtis Lazar, their 2013 first round draft pick from the trading block. Murray described the arrea of need for the Senators as such: "probably the one area that like a lot of teams we still need is another forward that has some impact, either in the scoring part of it or the physical part. Either/or, and I think that would address a need on our hockey team." Murray is conscious of the dollars to be spent since the Sens are obtaining and trading players dollar for dollar.
St-Louis looking at an upgrade in net?
According to Jim Matheson of the Edmonton Journal, he reported the St-Louis Blues will be active in obtaining Ryan Miller from the Buffalo Sabres, if Tim Murray doesn't get to resign the American goaltender. Miller who is set to become an unrestricted free agent hasn't really made it clear on whether he wants to stay in Buffalo in a rebuild under Murray and Pat Lafontaine. With the Olympics fast approaching, a decision by management to either keep Miller or trade him by the trading deadline will have to be made. St-Louis who are playing their best hockey of the season may be tempted to go after Miller in order to make a serious push at the Stanley Cup. St-Louis could offer goalie Jaroslav Halak, and a prospect or young forward. St-Louis has made it clear they will not trade Dmitrij Jaskin.
Pittsburgh Penguins would like to complete the Crosby/Kunitz line
Still with Jim Matheson of the Edmonton Journal, he reported that the Pittsburgh Penguins would love to be able to complete the Sidney Crosby / Chris Kunitz line by adding from the Winnipeg Jets winger Blake Wheeler. Wheeler this year has 16 goals and 17 assists for 33 points in 43 games played. Matheson stated that the problem in acquiring Wheeler from the Jets is that they are not after draft picks for their core players. They want players that can contribute for the team this year. Pittsburgh is apparently dangling prospect defenseman Simon Despres who was their 2009 first round draft pick.
Anaheim Ducks after Dan Girardi
Still with Jim Matheson from the Edmonton Journal he also cited the Anaheim Ducks who are willing to upgrade their defense in order to make a Stanley Cup run this year, would like to possibly acquire Dan Girardi from the New York Rangers . Matheson mentioned the Ducks wouldn't mind part with Luca Sbisa, Sheldon Souray and their two first round picks in 2014 (their own and the pick they acquired from Ottawa in the Bobby Ryan trade). Girardi is slated to become an unrestricted free-agent at the end of the season. Paul Maurice making coaching debut tonight Paul Maurice will not have time to sit on his laurels as he is making his Winnipeg Jets coaching debut tonight against the Phoenix Coyotes. Maurice who is replacing former head coach Claude Noel has had coaching stints with the Carolina Hurricanes and the Toronto Maple Leafs
Paul Maurice making Winnipeg Jets coaching debut
Paul Maurice won't have much time to rest as he is making his Winnipeg Jets head coaching debut tonight against the Phoenix Coyotes. Maurice is replacing former head coach Claude Noel who was fired on Sunday by general manager Kevin Cheveldayoff. Maurice has coached the Hartford Whalers / Carolina Hurricanes from 1995 to 2003, the Toronto Maple Leafs from 2006 to 2008. Maurice was re-hired by the Hurricanes after the firing of Peter Laviolette, who had replaced him in 2003. On November 28, 2011 the Carolina Hurricanes announced that he had been fired for a second time. Maurice has a lifetime coaching record of: 460 wins and 457 losses with 99 ties and 68 overtime losses in 1084 games.

Cousins Taimur Ali Khan & Inaaya Naumi Kemmu to follow this Pataudi tradition - deets here
Updated Dec 17, 2017 | 20:19 IST | Aayushi Sharma
Taimur Ali Khan and Inaaya Naumi Kemmu shall go the Pataudi way! Read details here...
The royal clan of the Pataudis is the perfect amalgamation of cinema and cricket. And their newest additions - Taimur Ali Khan and Inaaya Naumi Kemmu are a sensation already. While one may think the family might pressurize their coming generations to take the legacy in either the sports or the acting field, education holds great significance in their lives.
Soha Ali Khan in an interview with IANS said that even though she was drawn to the acting world, there was always an emphasis on education in her family.
"Especially in my mother's side of the family. My mother's mother had a masters degree, which was very rare at that time for a woman. Education has always been prized in our family," said Soha, whose mother Sharmila is related by birth to the famous Tagore family of Bengal.
"I always wanted to study. There has also been a tradition of going to the Oxford University... My grandfather, my father... So, I wanted to go there. I would like my daughter to go there too, but I wouldn't put pressure. It's a wonderful place to study. And more than what you get there academically, it's the whole life of being there, the exposure to that history and architecture, making the contacts... It's great education."
It wasn't long ago that Saif Ali Khan had also revealed that his youngest born Taimur shall attend a boarding school in England. In an interview with an online portal, daddy Saif revealed, "He has innocence in his eyes, there is nothing pretentious, but yes I am worried about him. I and Kareena have already discussed the stardom he already has around him and we have decided to send him to a nice boarding school in England. It will hopefully do the trick. It has done for everybody in the family."
Going by these statements by Soha and Saif, it wouldn't thus come as a surprise when Taimur and Inaaya follow the Pataudi tradition and go abroad for education.
Soha is the youngest daughter of veteran actress Sharmila Tagore and the late Mansoon Ali Khan Pataudi. She herself wasn't encouraged for taking up acting.
"As far as acting is concerned, I wouldn't say I was discouraged from acting but I was not encouraged to be an actor. My parents certainly felt my personality was not suited to acting in Hindi films and so I would be happier and better at doing something else. Also, they felt, like any parent, a little protective as there's a lot of competition, insecurity and unpredictability in the film industry," Soha told IANS over phone from Mumbai.
She says they always wanted her to opt for something "stable" and so she gave working at Citigroup as a private banker a try.
"It was about making my parents proud and especially for my father... I wanted to make him proud. I knew he wanted me to do something more in the corporate space. So I tried that but my heart was really not in it, which is why then I started working in films. It was a difficult choice but I knew my parents would embrace it whole-heartedly.
Having featured in films like Rang De Basanti, Tum Mile and Go Goa Gone, Soha has come up with her debut book titled "The Perils of Being Moderately Famous", in which she talks about how she is not "really" in the league of her family members and yet not being "entirely anonymous".
Rest assured, these royal babies shall be thoroughly trained in not just acting and sports. We can't wait for Taimur and Inaaya to attend school together.

Breast cancer reconstruction
Chest and abdominal wall reconstruction
Skin cancer resection and reconstruction
Vaginal reconstruction
I absolutely love Dr. Li and have nothing but high praise and the best to say about her. …very caring and personal approach …The best doctor I could ask for …
When patients are diagnosed with cancer, many ask, "How will I look once my cancer is taken away?" As a wife and mother of two, Dr Wai-Yee Li M.D., Ph.D., recognizes the importance of restoring patients after cancer surgery. "Whether it's the face or the breast, people want to look and feel as normal as they can after their cancer is removed. Surviving cancer is about having a good quality of life and feeling great about yourself."
Dr Li specializes in post-cancer reconstruction all over the body, including breast, chest and abdominal wall, vaginal reconstruction and skin cancer resection and reconstruction. She recently set up a Skin Cancer Excision Clinic, at the City of Hope Duarte campus, allowing patients easier access to one-stop outpatient surgery.
Dr. Li also specializes in the treatment of lymphedema, a swelling that develops due to the abnormal collection of fluid beneath the skin, most commonly in an arm or leg. This can occur when lymph nodes are removed or damaged during cancer treatment.
A board-certified diplomat of the American Board of Plastic Surgery, Dr Li obtained her membership of the Royal College of Surgeons of England in 2001. Born and raised in London, England, Dr Li is of Chinese origin and is fluent in Cantonese. She earned her Bachelor of Science in Pathology, with honors, from the University of Birmingham, England, where she also completed her Bachelor of Medicine and Surgery.
Following an internship in Internal Medicine and General Surgery, Dr Li first encountered breast cancer patients as a general surgery resident at the world-renowned Royal Marsden Hospital. However, instead of performing mastectomies, she was far more interested in how to reconstruct patients' breasts. This was the trigger to embark upon Plastic and Reconstructive surgery training at the Queen Victoria Hospital, East Grinstead. She went on to pursue a PhD in wound healing and craniofacial development, at Children's Hospital Los Angeles, granted by the University of Manchester.
During this time she was awarded multiple fellowships including The Joint American College of Surgeons and Royal College of Surgeons of England USA Fellowship, the CHLA Research Institute Career Development Award and the Wound Healing Foundation/3M Fellowship. Dr. Li then completed her 6-year residency in Plastic and Reconstructive surgery at the University of Southern California, Los Angeles. This was followed by a pediatric plastic surgery fellowship at the University of British Columbia, Canada.
During her training, Dr. Li was the recipient of several honors, awards and scholarships and holds active memberships with the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, the Wound Healing Society and the World Association of Plastic Surgeons of Chinese Descent. She has authored numerous peer-reviewed publications, two book chapters, and is frequently invited to present her work at international conferences and meetings. Most recently, she presented work on nipple-sparing mastectomy reconstruction in Wuhan, China and Hong Kong. She also serves on the editorial board for the Annals of Plastic Surgery journal.

Q: Redirect a programm audio stream to skype as microphone output I wanted to ask if its possible to stream the output only from Chrome or other programm to skype using pulseaudio. If I choose the monitor of my playback device, the skype user hears himself, because his talking is also coming to my playback device which I redirect to skype from the recording tab.
If I play a video on Chrome for example, how can I stream the audio output to the skype user without him hearing himself? (I would like to hear the audio from youtube too)
Edit: I forgot to mention that I also want to mix in the input from my microphone (I am using one via usb) so that I can talk while playing Chrome videos
Edit #2: I achieved redirecting the output to skype, but now I cannot hear the song myself:

A task force of the National Institute of Building Sciences (NIBS) buildingSMART Allianc has launched a new website to offer visitors a glimpse into the not-too-distant future of the building industry.
According to The ACHR News The alliance is developer of the nation's building information modeling (BIM) standard — National BIM Standard - United States® (NBIMS-US™). Its NBIMS-US Planning Committee formed the NBIMS-US 2021 Vision Task Force (VTF) last year to focus on defining, forecasting, and in some cases, guessing at the future of the building industry to gain insight into what the NBIMS-US itself will need to be to support that future.
"The initial effort of the 2021 Vision Task Force was to ask subject matter experts from every part of our industry to provide short essays about the nature of their role, profession, or industry as it will be in 8-10 years — a timeframe we believe it is possible to reasonably predict," said Chris Moor, chair of the NBIMS-US Project Committee, who serves as VTF chair.
The VTF collected close to 40 of these essays, and then spent considerable time researching additional sources about the future of the building industry.
"We then wove this knowledge together into a single, compelling, and tangible vision of how a construction project may be built in the future, including the technologies and processes that would be in common use," said Moor.
The website, www.nationalbimstandard.org/vision2021, offers the reader the opportunity to download a story delivered via a choice of two vehicles — a short novel and a fictional newspaper article — through which to explore the design, construction, and opening day of a fictional children's care center in Springfield, USA, and to meet the key players of the team that created the project.
Major findings among the VTF's essays and research used to develop the story fall into six categories: Sustainability; Facility Management and Operations; Data, Interoperability and Integration; Building Codes, Specifications and Standards; Technology; and Processes, Efficiency and Collaboration. All of the categories are expanded on within the publications.
While these categories identify some of the anticipated progress of the industry during the next decade, the VTF noted that what was more revealing was just how the industry might get there.

'Sleep talking' PCs save energy and Money
'Somniloquy' a new technology system has been developed by Yuvraj Agarwal from UC San Diego and Microsoft Research. According to the researchers, evaluation of the 'Somniloquy' show that "it consumes 11 to 24 times less power than a PC in idle state", and this could translate to a 60 to 80 percent energy savings depending on their use model it added.
The computer scientists named their system 'Somniloquy', because the system allows a PC to perform "non-power-intensive tasks" even though it is in sleep mode and wakes up the PC when higher resources are required for a computing task such as storing files.
In the public release on 23rd April 2009, by EurekAlert.org, UC San Diego computer science Ph.D. student Yuvraj Agarwal presented this work at the USENIX Symposium on Networked Systems Design and Implementation (NSDI 2009). Collaborators on this project and the NSDI 2009 paper,  Somniloquy: Augmenting Network Interfaces to Reduce PC Energy Usage where computer scientists at UC San Diego and Microsoft Research in Redmond, Washington and Cambridge, UK.
(Source: NSDI 2009 paper)
The goal of Somniloquy is to encourage people to put their PCs in sleep mode more often, for example when they are not being used for computationally demanding tasks. "Reducing energy consumed by wall-powered devices, especially computing equipment, offers a huge opportunity to save money and reduce greenhouse gasses," said Agarwal.
Agarwal noted that "Large numbers of people keep their PCs in awake mode even though the PCs are relatively idle for long blocks of time because they want to stay connected to an internal network or the Internet or both". "I realized that most of the tasks that people keep their computers on for—like ensuring remote access and availability for virus scans and backup, maintaining presence on instant messaging (IM) networks, being available for incoming voice-over-IP (VoIP) calls, and file sharing and downloading—can be achieved at much lower power-use levels than regular awake mode," said Agarwal.
Based on this realization, Agarwal and the team built a small USB-connected hardware and software plug-in system that allows a PC to remain in sleep mode while continuing to maintain network presence and run well-defined application functions. It supports instant messaging applications, VoIP, large background web downloads, peer-to-peer file sharing networks such as BitTorrent, and remote access. Also the system can be easily extended to support other applications, this the scientists indicated.
"Somniloquy uses a very small low-power computer. It has a low-power processor, some memory, a lightweight operating system, and a small amount of flash to store data. Everything is scaled down and extremely energy efficient," said Agarwal. Its low-power secondary processor functions at the PC's network interface an runs an embedded operating system and impersonates the sleeping PC to other hosts on the network. Somniloquy will wake up the PC over the USB bus if necessary. For example, during a movie download, when the flash memory fills up, Somniloquy will wake up the PC and transfer the data. When the transfer is complete, it will go back to sleep mode and Somniloquy will again impersonate the computer on the network.
The statement noted that current prototypes work for desktops and laptops, over wired and wireless networks, and are incrementally deployable on systems with an existing network interface. It does not require any changes to the operating system on the PC, to routers or other network infrastructure, or to remote application servers.
In the future, Somniloquy could be incorporated into the network interface card of new PCs, which would eliminate the need for the prototype's external USB plug-in hardware, the statement added.

SINGAPORE, March 11 (Reuters) - CNOOC, China's biggest operator of liquefied natural gas (LNG) import terminals, is talking to independent companies about access to its facilities after short trial leases last year, three sources with knowledge of the discussions said.
The initiative, begun earlier this year, comes amid Beijing plans to form a national pipeline company by combining assets from state energy companies, in a reform of the sector that's intended to spur private investment and boost use of cleaner-burning natural gas.
Gas terminals and storage tanks, in which China National Offshore Oil Corp, parent of CNOOC Ltd, is among the top investors, could be the next assets to be transferred to the pipeline group that is likely to be launched this year, industry sources following the reform plan said.
CNOOC is offering pipeline developers such as ENN Energy and LNG distributors such as Longkou Shengtong Energy the chance to use its LNG terminals on China's east coast over a 10-year period, with a specified number of slots each year.
The business could reap state-run CNOOC tens of millions of dollars a year in relatively risk-free revenue.
Broader access to its 20 or so receiving terminals - all built by state majors except for a few by private firms including ENN - would likely boost LNG imports into China. China has been the world's second-biggest buyer of LNG since 2017, with its intake growing more than 40 percent a year in each of the past two years.
As an option to terminal access, CNOOC has also asked companies to offtake some of its import cargoes signed under term agreements with global suppliers, said two of the sources.
"The discussions about opening terminals ... is compatible with the broad state policy to connect LNG import facilities with main gas pipelines such as the West-to-East project," said a state oil LNG executive based in the southern city of Shenzhen. The executive declined to be named as he's not authorized to speak to press.
CNOOC did not respond to Reuters' request for comment.
CNOOC sold two five-day terminal slots late last year via open tenders, gaining 63 million yuan ($9.39 million) out of the sales.
In one of the deals, private firm Shengtong teamed up with state-owned Zhenhua Oil. The second deal was done by private LNG distributor Zhejiang Panergy.
The sales encouraged CNOOC to broaden the openings, and the latest initiative of offering long-term terminal access would also make CNOOC appear supportive of Beijing's push to open state infrastructure to third parties, the sources said.
Private firms, however, remained cautious.
"The prices paid for the access need to be regulated. Companies will need to think carefully whether they could pass on that cost to their consumers," said an executive with a city-gas distributor approached by CNOOC.
If CNOOC ties pipeline access to its term cargoes, which tend to be more pricey than the spot market, CNOOC's initiative could be a hard sell, said a second official with knowledge of CNOOC's plan.

Tamata (the plural form of tama) are votive offerings or promises made of rectangular pieces of metal with miniature body parts shaped on them. They are made of tin, silver or gold, the choice of which depends on the amount of faith or the thickness of your wallet. There is no actual record or evidence that a more costly tama is more effective than the cheaper tin one.
Orthodox Greeks in need of a miracle, a cure, a wife,a husband or a baby buy tamata representing their need (often a body part but often a whole person, male or female or baby and sometimes even a house - I haven't seen cars yet) and hang it with a ribbon below the icon of the saint of their choice. Some saints are more popular than others, some icons and churches are in higher demand.
The photos above were taken in the church of Agios Ioannis Theologos (St. John the Apostle) in the village of the same name in Sfakia.

Football is the most popular and played sport. There are several football competitions ranging from local amateur to world-class professional level. The legendary Eusébio is still a major symbol of Portuguese football history. FIFA World Player of the Year winners Luís Figo and Cristiano Ronaldo, are among the numerous examples of other world-class football (soccer) players born in Portugal and noted worldwide.
The Portuguese national teams, have titles in the FIFA World Youth Championship and in the UEFA youth championships. The main national team - Selecção Nacional - finished second in Euro 2004 (held in Portugal), reached the third place in the 1966 FIFA World Cup, and reached the fourth place in the 2006 FIFA World Cup, their best results in major competitions to date.
Sporting C.P., F.C. Porto and S.L. Benfica are the largest sports clubs by popularity and in terms of trophies won, often known as "os três grandes" ("the big three"). They have 12 titles won in the European UEFA club competitions, were present in many finals and have been regular contenders in the last stages almost every season. Other than football, many Portuguese sports clubs, including the "big three", compete in several other sports events with a varying level of success and popularity, these may include basketball, futsal, handball, and volleyball.
Portugal has a successful rink hockey team, with 15 world titles and 20 European titles, making it the country with the most wins in both competitions. The most successful Portuguese rink hockey clubs in the history of European championships are F.C. Porto, S.L. Benfica and Óquei de Barcelos.
The national rugby union team made a dramatic qualification into the 2007 Rugby World Cup and became the first all amateur team to qualify for the World Cup since the dawn of the professional era. The Portuguese national rugby sevens team has performed well, becoming one of the strongest teams in Europe, and proved their status as European champions in several occasions.
In athletics, the Portuguese have won a number of gold, silver and bronze medals in the European, World and Olympic Games competitions. Cycling, with Volta a Portugal being the most important race, is also a popular sports event and include professional cycling teams such as S.L. Benfica, Boavista, Clube de Ciclismo de Tavira, and União Ciclista da Maia. The country has also achieved notable performances in sports like fencing, judo, kitesurf, rowing, sailing, surfing, shooting, triathlon and windsurf, owning several European and world titles. The paralympic athletes have also conquered many medals in sports like swimming, boccia and wrestling.
In motor sport, Portugal is internationally noted for the Rally of Portugal, and both the Estoril and Algarve Circuits.
Northern Portugal has its own original martial art, jogo do pau, in which the fighters use staffs to confront one or several opponents.


In New Jersey, the state gambling regulator has reportedly agreed to a complicated agreement that's to eventually see a private equity fund presume a vast majority stake in Atlantic City's fighting Ocean Resort Casino.
According to a Thursday report from The Press of Atlantic City newspaper, the three-member New Jersey Casino Control Commission approved the deal on Wednesday afternoon to provide New York City-headquartered Luxor Capital Group the capability to increase its holding in an entity known as AC Sea Walk, that is responsible for Ocean Resort Casino, from 34% to 83%.
The newspaper reported that the complex arrangement approved by the eastern state's gambling regulator has entailed the former Chief Operating Officer for its now-shuttered Atlantic Club Casino Hotel, Eric Matejevich, being called the principal trustee for Ocean Resort Casino. It clarified that this condition of affairs has been designed as a means to maintain the Boardwalk casino available while Luxor Capital Group employs for an online casino license, which is a process which could take up to 120 days.
This licensing process is to entail an around 90-day evaluation of Luxor by the New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement alongside an up to month-long wait in order to Provide the New Jersey Casino Control Commission period to set a Last approval hearing. After its temporary consent has been given, the new majority owner will purportedly be required to embark upon the more lengthy and intensive route to being given a complete casino license.
In agreeing with the temporary possession change, the operator reportedly mandated that Ocean Resort Casino must adhere by 26 stipulations which have a requirement that it keep a daily operating cash balance of $10 million. In addition, the 20-acre property is purportedly obliged to hold a minimum casino bankroll of $11 million alongside having access to at least $15 million in debt providers.
Riders were added after it appeared that AC Ocean Walk had successfully sought relief from a comparable $31 million aggregated necessity in October only to fall foul of the newly-lowered obligation less than a month afterwards. Included in Wednesday's approval, Ocean Resort Casino is currently purportedly likewise anticipated to instantly notify the New Jersey Casino Control Commission if it cannot meet any component of the new $36 million combined threshold.
Ocean Resort Casino opened to the site of the former Revel Casino Hotel in late-June following AC Sea Walk, that was majority-owned by Colorado-based property developer Bruce Deifik, compensated approximately $229 million to purchase the then-shuttered property.

The initial symptom is a yellow mosaic discoloration on the undersides of the lower leaves on the onset or during the flowering stage. The small lesions gradually increase in size and become tan or brown in color. The lesions are slightly raised and consist of small pustules, with a small hole on top where the spores emerge. The pustules become plentiful and eventually coalesce to form larger pustules that break open, releasing masses of spores. During pod formation, the disease spreads rapidly to the middle and upper parts of the plant. Lesions are found on petioles, pods, and stems but are most abundant on leaves.
The first symptom is small and pale-yellow spots on the upper surfaces of the leaves. As the spots increase in size, masses of orange spores appear on the undersurfaces. The fungus reproduces through the stomata rather than breaking through the epidermis as most rusts do. It does not form pustules which is a typical rust symptom. The powdery lesions on the undersides of the leaves can be orange-yellow to red-orange in color, but colors vary from one region to another. While the lesions can develop anywhere on the leaf, they tend to be concentrated around the margins, where dew and rain droplets collect. The centers of the spots eventually dry and turn brown, while the margins of the lesions continue to expand and produce spores. The first lesions usually appear on the lowermost leaves and the infection slowly progresses upwards. The infected leaves drop prematurely, leaving long expanses of twigs devoid of leaves. The petioles, young twigs, and occasionally green coffee berries are also infected (CABI, 2000).
The initial symptoms are yellow spots on leaf surfaces. The spots develop into oval to elongate reddish-brown powdery and elevated lesions that contain a powdery mass of orange to reddish-brown spores (pustules) on the upper and lower leaf surfaces. The pustules are generally small, less than 0.6 cm, and are surrounded by the leaf epidermal layer which appears as a whitish covering. The spores became brownish-black when they mature. Damage is most abundant on the leaves but may appear on any above ground portion of the plant.
Select only diseased-free seeds for planting.
If there was a heavy infestation of rust on your farm during the previous crop, practice crop rotation by planting a different crop in the next cropping season.
Control weeds to facilitate air circulation and rapid drying of the plants' canopy.
Prune coffee plants properly. Pruning improves air circulation and promotes rapid drying of the foliage, thereby reducing the rust damage. Ask for assistance from your local agriculturist office.
