A USA TODAY conversation with readers on sexual harassment
An expert take on the most common comments when discussing sexual harassment or assault in the workplace.
A USA TODAY conversation with readers on sexual harassment An expert take on the most common comments when discussing sexual harassment or assault in the workplace. Check out this story on USATODAY.com: https://usat.ly/2AjuVhE

In a news conference Tuesday, lawmakers stood and announced their call for an investigation into President Donald Trump's alleged sexual misconducts. To date, 17 women have accused Trump of forced kissing, unwanted touching and groping. (Dec. 12) AP

Not all problematic behavior is necessarily grounds for firing.
This movement is ultimately about evolving as a culture.
Best to avoid blaming the victims of inequitable workplace rules.
2017 will be remembered as the year the patriarchy took a hit. The waters of change started flowing after the 2016 presidential election, when a man who braggingly said, "When you're a star, they let you do it. ... Grab 'em by the p---y. You can do anything," was elected to the highest office in the land.
But it wasn't until famed Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein was barraged by sexual assault allegations in early October that the gates to the dam were opened and one after another, the allegations piled up and powerful men were held accountable for their actions.
As the Your Say editor, I'm constantly reading and interacting with USA TODAY readers on an array of subjects. Sexual harassment has proved to not only been a polarizing one, it's also an issue of which we all lack full understanding of. In the spirit of bridging that gap, I spoke to Meg Bond, professor of psychology and director of the Center for Women & Work at the University of Massachusetts-Lowell.
Below, you'll find some of the most common themes when discussing sexual assault/harassment allegations from our readers and Bond's take on it:
"I would venture a guess at dozens or even hundreds of women, that we will never hear of, who used their sexuality or any other means to claw their way to the top." — Michael Pacer; Paso Robles, Calif.
Bond: To my knowledge, there isn't any research that supports the notion that women are "clawing" their way to the top. Additionally, it's important to remember that any women who might consider this strategy are highly unlikely to use their sexuality at work, unless they are led to believe it's the only way to survive.
The sexism comes first; the efforts to figure out how to navigate the rules of the workplace come later. Best to avoid blaming the victims of inequitable workplace rules.
Rivera: You can't really blame women or men who use their sexuality to their advantage. As Bond explains, the rules were set for them by a sexist environment. Don't hate the player, hate the game.
"If you are a man who just woke up to a similar series of status updates, look at yourself. Look at your friends. Know that there is no way that so many of your friends have been victimized without the men you know acting as perpetrators." — Rex Lee; Washington, D.C.
Bond: The #metoo campaign should be a wakeup call for all of us. While specific percentages vary across studies, the research shows that the majority of all working women have experienced some form of sexual harassment over their work lives, about 70% of whom never lodge a formal complaint largely due to fears of being doubted or punished for coming forward. This means that the way forward is a massive cultural change — and male allies in this process are critical.
Rivera: We all need to do some introspective work and really think about our interactions in the work room — men in particular. Being self-aware of one's actions is not a hard thing to do, or a liberal tactic to create more "safe spaces." It's about recognizing that we all might be perpetrators, even in a small way, and trying to be decent human beings.
"The problem is what a lot of women call sexual harassment is actually just flirting. Women expect men to make the first move, and then they're offended if they're approached by a man who doesn't meet their standards." – Frederick Appleton
Bond: There's a clear difference between flirting and sexual harassment. If a male colleague is friendly to a female co-worker, that may well be flirting. If he is of equal status, asks her out for coffee, and gracefully takes "no" for an answer, it's not likely to be considered harassment unless there is some sort of backlash against her for declining.
On the other hand, if he touches her body, pressures her for dates, makes frequent lewd comments about her, insists on telling her about his sex life, and/or otherwise acts in a way that makes her feel threatened, unsafe and unwelcome at work, that is squarely in the realm of sexual harassment. If the unwelcome behavior is repeated, sustained, has the impact of harming someone's ability to do their work, and/or blocks a woman from job opportunities, it's clearly time to report it.
Rivera: Crossing the line is pretty clear. There's a difference between saying "that's a pretty dress" and "I love the way your body looks in that dress." And if those two sound the same to you, please acknowledge that that is a problem and try to learn from it. You also don't want to be that bitter person in the office who's angry 'cause you got rejected. That's not cool.
"Many women everywhere experience sexual harassment every day in the workplace and feel powerless to call out their aggressors for fear of losing their jobs." — Heather Bacon
Bond: Numerous studies support these claims — i.e. yes, most women have experienced some form of harassment and yes, the vast majority of those who have experienced harassment feel constrained from taking any kind of action because they fear facing disbelief, blame, and/or retaliation. To address this, companies have to be proactive. They need to have systems in place where targets feel safe to come forward, both to report the more egregious behavior and to discuss the more subtle types of dismissive behavior that can add up over time to make women feel devalued and marginalized.
"The physical power difference between men and women makes every encounter a woman has dangerous." — Donna Richardson
Bond: No one should feel uncomfortable to interact with any of their co-workers. There is no good excuse for treating women disrespectfully, yet not all problem behavior is necessarily grounds for firing.
Acts that are defined by law as overt sexual harassment or assault are definitely grounds for dismissal. However, we need other ways to address the inappropriate comment by the water cooler or the sexist joke circulated by email — ways that can be less shaming, but also communicate clearly that the behavior must stop.
Rivera: This reminds me of the "Pence rule." Really? Men and women can't interact without there being a threat? Be an adult and behave as if you're in church. It's an office, not a club.
And, as Bond points out, not all inappropriate behavior should be grounds for dismissal. All of us have very different backgrounds and education, and sometimes an admonition can go a long way. However, when the behavior is repetitive and your co-worker no longer feels safe around you, that's another story.
"Locker room talk," "boys will be boys" and all that type of malarkey needs to be called out and shamed by peers." — @JusDucky27
"Better not to talk to the opposite sex, and stare at the floor than have some kind of misunderstanding." — Steven Berdrow
Bond: We need to be talking about appropriate, equitable and respectful ways for men and women to interact in the workplace. We need to highlight good role models and to develop organizational norms for civility. It's important to remember that the renewed focus on this pervasive problem of sexual harassment is not a witch hunt or an effort to take out every bad actor. This movement is ultimately about evolving as a culture and addressing issues that have long permeated our society.
Rivera: If you, or anyone you know, are a victim of sexual harassment/assault in the workplace, know that there are resources out there for you. If you feel you can't approach anyone in your office about the issue, please take a look at the link below and call any of the numbers for assistance.

THE rift over sharing of seats among MDC Alliance partners took another twist yesterday as MDC-T secretary-general Douglas Mwonzora stood his ground, claiming that he had convinced MDC-T leader Morgan Tsvangirai that the opposition party would continue fielding candidates in all constituencies until such time the coalition has finalised its negotiations.
Mwonzora argued the MDC-T and its alliance partners had not yet signed a specific pact allocating seats to parties in the coalition, and added that Tsvangirai's statement to the contrary was based on misinformation.
"I have been in discussions with the president (Tsvangirai) and we agreed on my position and what I meant as regards the party's candidate selection and the alliance," Mwonzora said.
This came after Tsvangirai and MDC Alliance spokesperson Welshman Ncube issued separate statements on Saturday, accusing Mwonzora of undermining opposition efforts to form a grand coalition to fight Zanu PF in next year's elections.
Ncube, who doubles as MDC leader, claimed the parties had already agreed on the allocation and sharing of constituencies in the seven-member opposition coalition.
Tsvangirai is MDC-T and MDC Alliance leader whose other partners are Transform Zimbabwe, Multiracial Christian Democrats (MCD), ZimPF, People's Democratic Party (PDP) and Zanu Ndonga.
Contacted for comment yesterday, Ncube insisted that Mwonzora's statements were meant to derail the coalition efforts.
"I spoke to president Tsvangirai yesterday (Saturday) before and after he issued the statement. I will not speak for him but I suggest you talk to him than all of us being taken for a merry-go-round by Douglas Mwonzora.
"The agreement we signed allocates a seat to each party and as I speak all parties are working to select their candidates. We agreed that we will not contest each other from the president to the local authorities and president Tsvangirai is clear on that," Ncube said.
He added that the narrative about the non-existence of an agreement is being pushed by individuals bent on undermining the opposition alliance agreement.
"It is not sane for anyone to claim that an agreement that has been in place for six months now is non-existent. If that is the case, then what we have been doing all along is kindergarten politics," Ncube said rhetorically.
"I suppose it was issued before we met, but we have since cleared the air. As secretary-general of the party, I have a constitutional duty to call for candidates' applications and I must do that within reasonable time before an election," he said.
"We are six months from an election and need our members who will contest the election to raise resources and campaign in time. For now, however, we need to have them in place and help them raise the necessary resources in good time".
Mwonzora argued instead of undermining Tsvangirai's authority, he had, in fact, enhanced it.
"I have not undermined the authority of our party leader; if anything it is to his advantage that he has pro-active people working with him who are able to identify concrete issues on time that are likely to affect the party.
"It has been eight months and we have no agreement regarding seat allocation within the Alliance. We need these negotiations to be concluded and as the MDC-T administrator, I want those involved to finalise this issue now," the former Nyanga North lawmaker said.
Tsvangirai's spokesperson Luke Tamborinyoka said he was not aware that the former Prime Minister had met Mwonzora.


As the "gig economy" continues to flourish, more and more professionals have been taking their talents on the road and finding freelance or contract-based gigs with a wide variety of companies.
Digital creative and marketing professionals can find work around the globe through Aquent staffing agency. You can choose from remote or on-site opportunities, and even look for contract-to-hire positions. The company also offers practical skills training through its free online courses, which can give freelancers a significant edge in the marketplace.
Most college students could use more cash — and what better way to earn it than freelancing while at school? College Recruiter allows students and recent graduates to search for part-time work or a possible career in various industries.
A division of staffing services firm Robert Half, The Creative Group specializes in job placement for professionals in creative fields like marketing, art, graphic design, copywriting, photography and more. While the listings include some contract-to-hire and full-time positions, you can use the "freelance" filter to narrow your search.
On Croogster, freelancers and the people who want to hire them can find exactly what they need. Anyone offering a service (writing, designing, app development, marketing, etc.) can list their "product" — what they do, how much it costs and the anticipated turnaround time — and clients can purchase the service through a buy button, as they would on an e-commerce platform. Prospective clients can also post specific projects that freelancers can respond to if they're interested. Though the company is based in India, Croogster is currently developing its presence in the U.S. and U.K. markets.
Crowded simultaneously recruits independent workers and aggregates freelance job postings from hundreds of on-demand platforms to solve the supply-and-demand problems on both ends of the freelance equation. For freelancers, Crowded helps gather a wide variety of opportunities in one place, making it simple to find a steady stream of jobs.
Calling all freelance writers and editors: CrowdSource is one of the largest freelance work teams on the market, specializing in content creation, review and moderation for retailers, online publishers and media companies. The company breaks larger editorial tasks into microtasks. Qualified freelancers can choose to work on these tasks through the website's WorkStation platform. If you perform well, you'll receive higher compensation and access to additional work.
Fiverr is a little different from your average freelance job-listing website. Instead of having companies post their projects so freelancers can apply, this site has freelancers create "gigs" based on what they're best at. That way, freelancers sell their services to the companies that find them. You can categorize your gig by keyword so it shows up in multiple searches.
Flexjobs offers listings for part-time and freelance positions in more than 50 career tracks. The company hand screens each telecommuting job, so you can be sure that you're applying for a position with a legitimate company. Flexjobs also offers skills testing, job search tips and special members-only discounts through the site's partners.

Writers of all sorts, from editors to bloggers, will find Freelance Writing Gigs helpful and convenient. The site posts various job opportunities in the industry and provides a simple-to-use search engine. Many of the options are available to work for from any location.
Like many freelance job websites, Guru displays a freelancer's portfolio, which includes reviews, past jobs and how much that person has earned through the site, so companies can verify the quality of a potential worker. The site also shows how much a particular company has spent on Guru freelancers, so job seekers can make an educated decision about the companies they want to work for. Search for work by category, location and fixed versus hourly jobs.
A job-search board and portfolio builder in one, Krop allows creative and tech professionals to put together personalized websites showcasing their skills to employers. The site features a mix of full-time, part-time and freelance work, searchable by location and keywords.
This recently launched app makes the process of finding and accepting jobs almost instantaneous. Like Tinder and Uber, Peer Hustle relies on geolocation, meaning you're only competing with freelancers in your area for jobs posted by local companies. You can work remotely or in person, and communicate with potential clients in real time. Peer Hustle also guarantees that you'll be paid for a job well done: Your gig doesn't begin until the client funds an escrow account, which is released to you when your work meets the client's satisfaction.
If you're a software developer, Toptal can help you find great work opportunities, fast. This marketplace puts all of its applicants through a series of screenings, tests and interviews and only accepts the top 3 percent of applicants. Because of this rigorous prescreening, potential employers know that members of Toptal's freelancer network are highly talented and ready to work immediately.
Formerly known as Elance-oDesk, Upwork is a robust platform that connects companies with more than 10 million freelancers who are looking for contract jobs. Freelancers in knowledge work industries such as Web and mobile development, writing, sales and marketing, design and consulting can chat with potential and current clients, and accept or decline job opportunities directly within the Upwork mobile app. You can also display your "work status" to interested companies, which lets others know how quickly you can reply to job invitations.
These two contest-based websites help businesses find high-quality freelance designers for a great value. We listed them separately because they're not like traditional job listing websites, but they're still a great resource for freelancers.
Designers of all sorts, whether they specialize in advertising, merchandise, packaging, graphic work or illustration, can sign up to become part of 99designs or Designhill's network of freelancers. Companies that are seeking design work create and launch a contest on their respective platform, and select the winning design from the work freelancers submit. Even if you don't win, entering these contests can help you build up your portfolio.

News Mysterium ICO Brings In Big Bucks For Decentralized VPN...
Mysterium ICO Brings In Big Bucks For Decentralized VPN Services
By Bitnewsbot.com
Mysterium Network developers are building a decentralized VPN and just received 14,000,000 Swiss francs from investors in exchange for MYST tokens to help make it happen.
On May 30, 2017, decentralized VPN platform Mysterium held an initial coin offering (ICO) for less than 45 minutes. In that time, 68,629 Ether (ETH) was traded for MYST tokens in an exchange that equates to 14,000,000 Swiss francs (CHF) or $14,363,394.50 (USD), according to Mysterium's website.
Fortune favored the developers of Mysterium, whose token sale will help them reach core development, operational, marketing, sales, and legal compliance goals. When the soft cap of 6,000,000 CHF was achieved, Mysterium tweeted the following:
We have reached a soft cap of 6M CHF – the crowdsale will remain open for 72 hours or until the hard cap is reached. #blockchain #eth #ito
— Mysterium Network (@MysteriumNet) May 30, 2017
Less than 20 minutes after this tweet, the number had more than doubled to the hard cap of 14,000,000 CHF, signaling the end of the sale.
Mysterium is powered by partnerships with digital asset marketplace TokenMarket, crypto financial broker Bitcoin Suisse AG, and open source framework Zeppelin. According to its website, Mysterium's Network will act as a marketplace where providers can sell unused traffic, and customers can use the network to buy VPN services. The network relies on the existing architecture of VPN protocols and the Ethereum blockchain's executable distributed code contracts (EDCCs).
Access to VPN services incur fees, the lion's share of which go to service providers or node operators, and the rest go to protocol development. According to Mysterium's white paper, these will be denominated in MYST initially, but that's subject to change in the future. The method of mining is also a bit different. Rather than being rewarded in computing power (often referred to as Proof-of-Work) or ownership in currency (called Proof-of-Stake), node operators are provided MYST tokens for sharing bandwidth. Mysterium may also integrate the award of commissions for transactions on the Mysterium Network in non-MYST currencies.
The white paper provides details as to how nodes interact with the Ethereum blockchain:
The core components of the Mysterium Network integrate together to create a decentralized platform. Ethereum's EDCCs allow for robust payment handling with decentralized code. An identity service and registry ensure client-to-service-provider security. A discovery service and searchable database let customers pick the most reasonable choice for their VPN, and services are paid for through a secure promise-based microtransaction.
The white paper details how EDCCs manage the payment systems between parties. Digital signatures are verified and compared with the parameters of the promise-based microtransaction. If the promise isn't signed, is a duplicate, or there are insufficient funds to cover it, the contract cancels the transaction. If the intended conditions are satisfied, the code uses parameters unique to the transaction stored on the blockchain, or state storage, to keep a serial record of the transaction.
Mysterium's developers promise an announcement in the coming days and with funding acquired, its goal of providing users a decentralized VPN service is a step closer.

Collector of memories
Samde Sherpa vividly remembers walking along the Annapurna Circuit as a 15-year-old. And ironically, he didn't like it very much. The year was 2004 and he was accompanying his uncle who was acting as a trekking guide to a French team. "It was too much walking for me back then," he recalls. However, after he returned home from the trip, he felt this sense of peace and calm like never before. And so, he decided he would go back to the hills and mountains as an adult.

Earlier this year in August Coach released new Apple Watch bands and updated the colors of some old ones for fall. Now, the brand has released even more Apple Watch bands and colors.
Coach has released even more Apple Watch bands for fall including the Strap with Camo Print in Surplus (brown) and the Strap with Sharky in Beechwood (beige). The new colors include the Strap with Tea Rose in Heather Grey and the Strap with Prints in Black Multi (black with bird print) and Melon (pink with star print).
The Strap with Camo doesn't seem to actually be camo like the Wild Beast Camo Leather Strap from the first release. It's more brown with darker brown spots on the leather.
Also, it seems Coach is changing the names of the bands. The Tea Rose Appliqué Leather Strap is now the Strap with Tea Rose. The Leather Strap with Charms is now the Strap with Charms. The Rexy Leather Watch Strap was changed to the Rexy Watch Strap in the last release and is now the Strap with Rexy. The Snake Watch Strap was changed to the Snake Strap and is now the Strap in Snakeskin. The Printed Leather Strap is now the Strap with Prints and Strap with Car Print.
The Leather Strap with Tea Rose Appliqué from the last release which is more expensive than the Tea Rose Appliqué Leather Strap is now the Strap with Tea Rose as well. It is, however, still more expensive.
The Strap with Camo retails for $150 and the Strap with Sharky costs $150 as well. The Strap with Tea Rose still costs $175 and the Strap with Print still costs $150.
The Strap with Camo only comes in 42mm. The Strap with Sharky only comes in 42mm as well.
The bands are, as usual, available in limited quantities. A representative says there are over 20 available for each new band and color where there were 200 – 250 available for the bands from the last release.
Most of the stores on the list of where you can get a Coach Apple Watch band have them in stock, though, it seems they are available in limited quantities as well. Sales associates at other stores can order the bands for you.

Review: Skyfall
When news broke that the James Bond film franchise was set to make it to film 25, to put it bluntly, I didn't care. Good for all the longtime fans, but I'll take a pass. However, should the next two installments be anything like "Skyfall," bring on the Bond!
When James Bond's (Daniel Craig) mission in Istanbul goes awry, a hard drive containing the identities of embedded agents winds up in enemy hands. The incident leads Gareth Mallory (Ralph Fiennes), the new Chairman of the Intelligence and Security Committee, to insist on M's (Judi Dench) retirement. She sticks to her guns and vows to recover the drive, but when MI6 is bombed, M comes to realize she's got no one to trust – except Bond. Bond returns, but in a subpar state, off his game both mentally and physically. However, this is 007 we're talking about and he's got just enough juice left to take on the culprit, the sadistic Raoul Silva (Javier Bardem).
As someone without a long-term love of the 007 franchise, the Daniel Craig iterations of the series were just any old spy movies. Yes, "Casino Royale" is superior to the lot, but without having grown up on the Bond movies, there's never been a reason to have an emotional stake in the character – until now.

Usually when I catch a movie, I'm busy scribbling down notes, some of which pertain to the film's plot, just so I've got the facts straight when writing the review. However, in the case of "Cloud Atlas," not only did I want to save my hand all that stress, but thought it'd be interesting to see what stuck after the 164-minute multiple storyline epic without writing a single note or looking at the press notes. No book, no notes, no Googling. This is what I took from "Cloud Atlas."
We've got quite a few characters and storylines in play here. There's Tom Hanks' Zachary, a man living in a village, fighting off a vicious enemy tribe while assisting Halle Berry's space-age character in her quest to send a call for help to her home planet. In the 1800s, one of Jim Sturgess' characters befriends an escaped slave while sailing home to his wife. In the early 1900s, Ben Whishaw's Frobisher goes to work for a famous composer where he gets the inspiration to pen the Cloud Atlas Sextet. In the 1970s, Berry is a journalist who catches wind of a scandal and is chased by a corporation assassin trying to stop her from exposing the story. In the present we get Timothy Cavendish, a man who's tricked into signing himself into an old age home by his brother. Finally, well into the future, we meet Sonmi, one of many identical robot-like humans who are made to staff a fast food restaurant. They're designed to sleep in their boxes, wake and go to work, but one day, Sonmi can't help, but to recognize that she's got hopes, dreams and feelings.
I can't believe it, but I think I actually managed to account for every "Cloud Atlas" scenario. Yes, they're merely simplistic descriptions of the stories, but when you've got a total of six narratives within a single film that don't connect on a literal level and are all playing out simultaneously, it's a wonder how someone can keep track of them all after a single viewing. And perhaps that goes to show that writer-directors Tom Tykwer, Lana Wachowski and Andy Wachowski did achieve a degree of success with their unusual methods.

The Cotswold Way marker stone at Campden square
Posted by Brandon | Oct 22, 2007 | Uncategorised
(From the noticeboard section of the Chipping Campden Bulletin. Reproduced with kind permission of Jeremy Green)
Very recently the town council was asked about the above stone and, as they had little or no information, they asked around. I was able to fill the gap and below I set out what I know of its history.
It starts at the Cotstone Quarry, which was worked out and was just a large hole in the ground. I believe that it was owned by an Irishman named Macateer, who was in financial difficulty and fled to Ireland to escape his creditors. In the early 1980s Eric Raines, who was and still is a well-known local farmer, went to Ireland and arranged to purchase the quarry.
On his return he applied for planning consent to use the quarry for landfill and was granted permission for only clean soil and for hardcore to be dumped. At this time the M42 was under construction and there were literally tons of surplus soil. Cotstone was the nearest site and hundreds of loads of soil were dumped there.
All this coincided with Campden being flooded on two occasions and therefore a new drainage system was being put in. One section dealt with the eastern end of the town and another the west end. The former meant removing the old stone culvert in Leysbourne, which had collapsed. It was constructed of 'cut' stone which is very valuable. To get rid of this the contractors decided to dump it in Cotstone Quarry, paying Eric Haines a fee for each load. Eric told the contractors to leave the stone on the top of the quarry and each evening he, with an employee, collected the stone and removed it to his farm, which was then in Blind Lane.
Subsequently he asked me to meet him in Blind Lane where he proudly showed me the stone he had salvaged. He offered me a piece for a Cotswold Way marker in the Square. The Cotswold Wardens picked it up the next day and erected it where it stands today. They had the 'Bath 100m,' cut into it and as this became a traffic sign, it was exempt from planning consent. The little plaque, which reads 'Cotswold Way, the beginning and end was supplied by the then head warden Ted Fryer, the cost being borne by the Gloucestershire county council.
Just as a matter of interest, the Cotswold Way was the brainchild of Tony Drake a prominent rambler, who for over thirty years was an influential campaigner for the footpath network of Gloucestershire. The Cotswold Way was launched in 1970 and the beginning of the Way was at the Square. Persons who suggest it should be at St James's church are completely wrong.

Fyffe pounds Reeltown 56-7 in Class 2A final
Times Staff Report
AUBURN — The Fyffe Red Devils scored more points than Reeltown's offensive yardage total Friday en route to a 56-7 shellacking of the Rebels in the Class 2A state high school football championship at Jordan-Hare Stadium.
Fyffe closed out a 15-0 season — the Red Devils have won 30 consecutive games — and claimed its second straight 2A title and its fourth overall. They also won in 2014 and 2016. Reeltown wound up 13-2.
"We come to work every day and I try not to let the kids get complacent," Fyffe coach Paul Benefield said. "(Reeltown is) a great team, really talented, their coach did a great job. We were so focused that we took control of the game early."
Sophomore quarterback Zach Pyron rushed for 171 yards on 27 carries and scored three touchdowns and completed 1 of 2 passes for 20 yards and another score to lead Fyffe and earn championship game MVP honors.
"It's awesome. I couldn't do this without Christ and these guys around me," Pyron, who has battled turf toe, said . "They are special and some great players. I'm blessed to be on this team with this coach. This is a special place to be knowing everyone wants to come in every day and get better. This community is so supportive of what we do."
Ike Rowell ran for 121 yards on 18 carries and scored one touchdown for the Red Devils.
Reeltown's offensive leaders were Cameron Faison and Trakev Hughley with 20 rushing yards each and Iverson Hooks with 31 yards passing on 4-of-11 throws.
The Rebels managed 51 net yards (20 rushing, 31 passing) to Fyffe's 325 (305 rushing, 20 passing). The Red Devils held a 55-35 edge in total plays and a 30:14 to 17:46 edge in time of possession.
"I knew our defense was playing really good," Benefield said. "We don't play a lot of fast backs like they got. But our defense was outstanding."
Fyffe was up 14-0 in the first quarter before Reeltown touched the football, on Pyron's 38-yard touchdown run and his 20-yard touchdown pass to Brody Dalton after the Rebels fumbled the kickoff.
"You get to pressing a bit ... if you're behind," Benefield said. "I thought if we kept putting pressure on ... it was a great team effort in every phase of the game."
Ty Bell returned a fumble 7 yards for a score and Pyron ran 3 yards to the end zone later in the quarter as Fyffe went ahead 28-0, before Eric Shaw returned a kickoff 90 yards for Reeltown's lone touchdown.
Touchdown runs of 1 yard by Pyron and 4 yards by Rowell propelled Fyffe to a 42-7 halftime lead.
"It was obvious that they were more comfortable than we were," Reeltown coach Matt Johnson said. "They've been in this setting. ... I think it got big for us early. Once we settled down we played a better second half, especially (on) defense."
After a scoreless third quarter, the Red Devils got a 2-yard touchdown by Malichi Mize and a fumble return for a score in the fourth.
"The starting defense on the field has not given up a touchdown this year and that's amazing," Benefield said. "We play good teams."
Johnson said his team had difficulty with Fyffe's hybrid Wing-T offense.
"Their offense isn't something you see every day," he said. "It's tough to defend, too. They've got big, fast, strong kids.
Benefield said of the offense, "We started calling it an antique. ... It's a little like a basketball team that freezes the ball with execution and discipline. These kids are bought in. I knew we were going to have the execution, discipline and work to run it. It's an unusual offense that some teams don't see but once a year."

Posted on Thursday, 01 October 2020 in Personal Injury
By: Heather A. Begley
As trucking injury transportation attorneys, we represent individuals from Illinois and nationally who have been injured in motor vehicle accidents involving trucks. Injured plaintiffs are permitted to proceed with lawsuits against brokers in truck accident cases, according to a recent decision in the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, Miller v. C.H. Robinson Worldwide, Inc., et al. No. 19-15981 The plaintiff suffered serious injuries when he was struck by a semi-tractor trailer. A freight broker serves as an intermediary between a shipper who has goods to transport and a carrier who has capacity to move that freight. The freight broker in the Miller case, C.H. Robinson, arranged for the trailer to transport goods for Costco Wholesale, Inc. The plaintiff alleged that C.H. Robinson negligently selected an unsafe motor carrier. The United States District Court for the District of Nevada initially dismissed the plaintiff's claim based on the Federal Aviation Administration Authorization Act of 1994 (the "FAAAA"), finding that state law claims that are "related to a price, route, or service of any… broker" are preempted. The appellate court reversed that finding based on an applicable exception: "the safety regulatory authority of a State with respect to motor vehicles". Congress intended to preserve the States' broad power over safety, a power that includes the ability to regulate conduct not only through legislative and administrative enactments, but also through common-law damages awards. This is an important finding on behalf of individuals who are injured in catastrophic motor vehicle accidents involving trucks wherein a broker was used to assist in the transport of goods.

Q: How to get the caller's method name in the called method? Python: How to get the caller's method name in the called method?
Assume I have 2 methods:
def method1(self):
    ...
    a = A.method2()

def method2(self):
    ...

If I don't want to do any change for method1, how to get the name of the caller (in this example, the name is method1) in method2?

A: This seems to work just fine:
import sys
print sys._getframe().f_back.f_code.co_name

A: I would use inspect.currentframe().f_back.f_code.co_name. Its use hasn't been covered in any of the prior answers which are mainly of one of three types:

*

*Some prior answers use inspect.stack but it's known to be too slow.

*Some prior answers use sys._getframe which is an internal private function given its leading underscore, and so its use is implicitly discouraged.

*One prior answer uses inspect.getouterframes(inspect.currentframe(), 2)[1][3] but it's entirely unclear what [1][3] is accessing.

import inspect
from types import FrameType
from typing import cast

def demo_the_caller_name() -> str:
    """Return the calling function's name."""
    # Ref: https://stackoverflow.com/a/57712700/
    return cast(FrameType, cast(FrameType, inspect.currentframe()).f_back).f_code.co_name

if __name__ == '__main__':
    def _test_caller_name() -> None:
        assert demo_the_caller_name() == '_test_caller_name'
    _test_caller_name()

Note that cast(FrameType, frame) is used to satisfy mypy.

Acknowlegement: comment by 1313e for an answer.

A: I've come up with a slightly longer version that tries to build a full method name including module and class.
https://gist.github.com/2151727 (rev 9cccbf)
# Public Domain, i.e. feel free to copy/paste
# Considered a hack in Python 2

import inspect

def caller_name(skip=2):
    """Get a name of a caller in the format module.class.method

       `skip` specifies how many levels of stack to skip while getting caller
       name. skip=1 means "who calls me", skip=2 "who calls my caller" etc.

       An empty string is returned if skipped levels exceed stack height
    """
    stack = inspect.stack()
    start = 0 + skip
    if len(stack) < start + 1:
      return ''
    parentframe = stack[start][0]

    name = []
    module = inspect.getmodule(parentframe)
    # `modname` can be None when frame is executed directly in console
    # TODO(techtonik): consider using __main__
    if module:
        name.append(module.__name__)
    # detect classname
    if 'self' in parentframe.f_locals:
        # I don't know any way to detect call from the object method
        # XXX: there seems to be no way to detect static method call - it will
        #      be just a function call
        name.append(parentframe.f_locals['self'].__class__.__name__)
    codename = parentframe.f_code.co_name
    if codename != '<module>':  # top level usually
        name.append( codename ) # function or a method

    ## Avoid circular refs and frame leaks
    #  https://docs.python.org/2.7/library/inspect.html#the-interpreter-stack
    del parentframe, stack

    return ".".join(name)

A: inspect.getframeinfo and other related functions in inspect can help:
>>> import inspect
>>> def f1(): f2()
...
>>> def f2():
...   curframe = inspect.currentframe()
...   calframe = inspect.getouterframes(curframe, 2)
...   print('caller name:', calframe[1][3])
...
>>> f1()
caller name: f1

this introspection is intended to help debugging and development; it's not advisable to rely on it for production-functionality purposes.

A: You can use decorators, and do not have to use stacktrace
If you want to decorate a method inside a class
import functools

# outside ur class
def printOuterFunctionName(func):
@functools.wraps(func)
def wrapper(self):
    print(f'Function Name is: {func.__name__}')
    func(self)
return wrapper

class A:
  @printOuterFunctionName
  def foo():
    pass

you may remove functools, self if it is procedural

A: An alternative to sys._getframe() is used by Python's Logging library to find caller information. Here's the idea:

*

*raise an Exception

*immediately catch it in an Except clause

*use sys.exc_info to get Traceback frame (tb_frame).

*from tb_frame get last caller's frame using f_back.

*from last caller's frame get the code object that was being executed in that frame.
In our sample code it would be method1 (not method2) being executed.

*From code object obtained, get the object's name -- this is caller method's name in our sample.
Here's the sample code to solve example in the question:
def method1():
    method2()

def method2():
    try:
        raise Exception
    except Exception:
        frame = sys.exc_info()[2].tb_frame.f_back

    print("method2 invoked by: ", frame.f_code.co_name)

# Invoking method1
method1()

Output:
method2 invoked by: method1

Frame has all sorts of details, including line number, file name, argument counts, argument type and so on. The solution works across classes and modules too.

A: Bit of an amalgamation of the stuff above. But here's my crack at it.
def print_caller_name(stack_size=3):
    def wrapper(fn):
        def inner(*args, **kwargs):
            import inspect
            stack = inspect.stack()

            modules = [(index, inspect.getmodule(stack[index][0]))
                       for index in reversed(range(1, stack_size))]
            module_name_lengths = [len(module.__name__)
                                   for _, module in modules]

            s = '{index:>5} : {module:^%i} : {name}' % (max(module_name_lengths) + 4)
            callers = ['',
                       s.format(index='level', module='module', name='name'),
                       '-' * 50]

            for index, module in modules:
                callers.append(s.format(index=index,
                                        module=module.__name__,
                                        name=stack[index][3]))

            callers.append(s.format(index=0,
                                    module=fn.__module__,
                                    name=fn.__name__))
            callers.append('')
            print('\n'.join(callers))

            fn(*args, **kwargs)
        return inner
    return wrapper

Use:
@print_caller_name(4)
def foo():
    return 'foobar'

def bar():
    return foo()

def baz():
    return bar()

def fizz():
    return baz()

fizz()

output is
level :             module             : name
--------------------------------------------------
    3 :              None              : fizz
    2 :              None              : baz
    1 :              None              : bar
    0 :            __main__            : foo

A: Shorter version:
import inspect

def f1(): f2()

def f2():
    print 'caller name:', inspect.stack()[1][3]

f1()

(with thanks to @Alex, and Stefaan Lippen)

A: Code:
#!/usr/bin/env python
import inspect

called=lambda: inspect.stack()[1][3]

def caller1():
    print "inside: ",called()

def caller2():
    print "inside: ",called()

if __name__=='__main__':
    caller1()
    caller2()

Output:
shahid@shahid-VirtualBox:~/Documents$ python test_func.py
inside:  caller1
inside:  caller2
shahid@shahid-VirtualBox:~/Documents$

A: I found a way if you're going across classes and want the class the method belongs to AND the method. It takes a bit of extraction work but it makes its point. This works in Python 2.7.13.
import inspect, os

class ClassOne:
    def method1(self):
        classtwoObj.method2()

class ClassTwo:
    def method2(self):
        curframe = inspect.currentframe()
        calframe = inspect.getouterframes(curframe, 4)
        print '\nI was called from', calframe[1][3], \
        'in', calframe[1][4][0][6: -2]

# create objects to access class methods
classoneObj = ClassOne()
classtwoObj = ClassTwo()

# start the program
os.system('cls')
classoneObj.method1()

A: Hey mate I once made 3 methods without plugins for my app and maybe that can help you, It worked for me so maybe gonna work for you too.
def method_1(a=""):
    if a == "method_2":
        print("method_2")

    if a == "method_3":
        print("method_3")

def method_2():
    method_1("method_2")

def method_3():
    method_1("method_3")

method_2()

CIMMYT and Cargill Mexico announce second food security and sustainability awards
For a second year in a row, $25,000 will be awarded to projects contributing to food security and sustainability in Mexico's agricultural sector.
Cargill will also be sponsoring a study to improve sustainability and responsible sourcing practices in Mexico's maize and wheat markets.
MEXICO CITY – The International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center (CIMMYT) and Cargill Mexico announced today the second Cargill-CIMMYT Food Security and Sustainability Award during CIMMYT's 50th anniversary celebration.
A prize of $25,000 will be awarded to projects that promote sustainable food security solutions in Mexico and are implemented by farmers, researchers and opinion leaders.
"Ultimately, Cargill and CIMMYT want to develop an operational strategy that can be replicated in other parts of Mexico and beyond," said Cargill Senior Director of Corporate Responsibility, Michelle Grogg.
Effective sustainable intensification strategies in Mexico, or anywhere else, only achieve significant and sustainable yield increases when innovative leaders in the links forming the agri-business chain collaborate with each other, said CIMMYT's director general, Martin Kropff. "CIMMYT is proud to partner with Cargill to identify and contribute to the great work that farmers, researchers and opinion leaders are doing in different links of Mexico's maize and wheat value chains."
The farmer association representative invested their $10,000 award in a conservation project that helped renew machinery and equipment.
The researchers category $10,000 award went to technological developments aimed at reducing consumption of fertilizers and herbicides in agriculture soybeans.
And, the opinion leader category winner used their $5,000 award to purchase a rainwater conservation system to help boost maize farmers' productivity in the state of Hidalgo.
Cargill is also sponsoring a study to evaluate and outline a sustainable and responsible sourcing plan for the Mexican maize and wheat markets. A task force, including Cargill and CIMMYT experts, will evaluate pilot areas and approaches, including different ways to implement more sustainable and responsible sourcing practices in the local supply chain.

Dave Grohl was "scared" to write about Kurt Cobain's death in new memoir
Dave Grohl has admitted that he was "scared" to write about Kurt Cobain's death in his new memoir The Storyteller.
The book sees the Foo Fighters frontman share some of his life adventures from his early days growing up in the suburbs of Washington DC, to hitting the road at the age of 18, his time as drummer for Nirvana, and all the music that followed.
Speaking in a new interview with Amanpour And Company, asked why he chose to write the chapter about Cobain's death last, Grohl said: "'Cause I was scared to write it. It's one thing to write about getting stitches when you're 12 years old or it's one thing to write about taking your kids to the daddy-daughter dance, it's another thing to write about something that you've barely spoken about with people close to you. I mean, I revealed some things in that story that I've never told my closest friends. I was scared to write it.

"First of all, I knew what people wanted me to write," he continued. "I think that people have a lot of unanswered questions – as do I. So I decided to write in a much broader emotional sense – the process of loss or grief and mourning, and how that's determined and how it differs from person to person. Yeah, it was a tough one to write."
It comes after Grohl recently got behind a drum kit and played along to 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' during his recent book tour in New York.
The New York stop was one of five events held around the world, including one at London's Savoy Theatre, which NME's Jordan Bassett was in attendance for, recounting the night in a four-star review.
Meanwhile, Grohl was recently the latest high-profile star to appear on BBC's CBeebies Bedtime Stories, reading Ringo Starr's children's book, 'Octopus's Garden'.
The frontman read the 2014 story based on the lyrics of 'Octopus's Garden', a 1969 cut from The Beatles' album Abbey Road', on Friday's (October 8) episode of the CBeebies show.

The Orchard House (3)
We have some practical remarks for publication next month on the Orchard House in America, by our practical friend " Fox Meadow".
Letters on Modern Agriculture, by Professor Liebio, edited by John Blyth, M. D., is the title of the new work issued in London. It has not reached our table, and we must be content to take at second-hand a few extracts from English journals:
"Nothing," says the Gardener's Chronicle, "can be more just than the following comparison of the plough and the spade, and we trust that cultivators will appreciate it; for it involves some of the greatest of truths, an entire conviction of the importance of which .is ail that is wanted to terminate the career of an antiquated implement whose merit consists in its ability to perform much bad work in little time.
"If the food of plants in the soil cannot move towards the roots, it is evident that the roots must spread about to look for food.
"A piece of bone weighing about 30,000 milligrammes (one ounce), in a cubic foot of earth, produces no marked effect on its fertility. But if these 30,000 milligrammes of phosphate of lime be uniformly distributed throughout the earth, it will suffice for the nourishment of 120 wheat plants. Ten thousand milligrammes of food, having a surface extent of 100 square millimetres, are within the same given time not more effective than ten milligrammes having the same surface extent. Of two fields with the same amount of food, one may be very fertile and the other equally unfruitful, if the food is more uniformly distributed throughout the former than the latter.
"The common plough breaks and turns up the soil without mixing it; it only displaces, to a certain extent, the spots on which plants are already grown. But the spade breaks, turns and mixes it thoroughly.
"As the smallest portions of food cannot of themselves leave the spot in which they are held firmly fixed by the soil, we can understand what immense influence must be exerted on its fertility by its careful mechanical division and thorough intermixture. This is the greatest of all the difficulties which the agriculturist has to overcome.
"Professor Liebig strongly advocates the use of green manures, a system pursued extensively on the continent of Europe.
"The keeping of cattle is necessary for the production of manure; but the production of manure is by no means necessary for the fertilization of corn fields. In the system of the rotation of crops, all that is required is that green crops should be grown, and that their constituent parts be incorporated with the arable surface soil of the field; and it is quite immaterial for the cereals whether the green crops be previously eaten by the cattle and converted into manure or not. If lupines, vetches, clover, turnips, etc, are cut up and ploughed in, in the green state, their action is far more powerful".
The following truth, so little appreciated, is happily put: " The technical part of an industrial pursuit can be learned; principles alone can be taught To learn the trade of husbandry, the agriculturist must serve an apprenticeship to it; to inform his mind in the principles of the science, he must frequent a school specially devoted to this object. It is impossible to combine the two; the only practicable way is to take them up successively. I formerly conducted at Giessen a school for practical chemistry, analysis, and other branches connected therewith, and thirty years' experience has taught me that nothing is to be gained by the combination of theoretical with practical instruction. A student of chemistry, who attends the lecture-hall and the laboratory concurrently, positively defeats thereby the object of his stay at the school, and misses the aim of his studies. It is only after having gone through a complete course of theoretical instruction in the lecture-hall that the student can with advantage enter upon the practical part of chemistry; he must bring with him into the laboratory a thorough knowledge of the principles of the science, or he cannot possibly understand the practical operations.
If he is ignorant of these principles, he has no business in the laboratory.
In all industrial pursuits connected with the natural sciences, in fact, in all pursuits not simply dependent on manual dexterity, the development of the intellectual faculties, by what may be termed 'school-learning,' constitutes the basis and chief condition of progress and of every improvement. A young man, with a mind well stored with solid scientific acquirements, will, without difficulty or effort, master the technical part of an industrial pursuit; whereas, in general, an individual who may be thoroughly master of the technical part is altogether incapable of seizing upon any new fact that has not previously presented itself to him, or of comprehending a scientific principle and its application.
"I have often found that students coming from good colleges will speedily leave the pupils of industrial and polytechnic schools far behind them even in the natural sciences, though the latter, when compared with the former, were at first giants in knowledge".
The New Grass, Spergula pilosa, seems to be making its way to public favor abroad. Mr. D. Beaton, one of the principal writers of the Cottage Gardener, says in that journal: -
"I am not long in deciding on a thing of this kind, and am often put down as being too sanguine in these matters; but it is seldom indeed that things go different, or very different, from what I say. I say, then, of this lawn plant, that it is destined to make a revolution in gardening; that it is a discovery next to that of gas, steam, and electricity, for gardening; that every lawn in England, Ireland and Scotland may be made with it as smooth, and soft, and comfortable to walk on as any carpet in Her Majesty's drawing-rooms; and that it never wants a scythe or a mowing machine. The best lawns and the best carpets have worn out, hitherto, by time and usage, and so will this grass; but, of all the things on the face of the earth, it is the easiest thing to 'make up,' and to look as well as it did before. It will require the highest style of gardening, and it will teach this nation how gardening should be done. One of our best exhibitor-gardeners has pledged his credit, in my hands, on the point that he would willingly undertake, in one season, to cover every inch of ground which is under the scythe at the Crystal Palace with this new grass.
"A large piece of lawn, nine yards by eight yards, is already formed of it at Forest Hill; and two larger pieces of lawn, each thirty yards by sixteen yards, are now in the course of being covered with it; and ultimately every inch of the lawn all over the garden is to be covered with it, and with nothing else.
"No one can conceive the beauty of it without seeing it. The nap on the finest velvet is not more soft or more uniform; and there is a gloss all over the surface like that on the back of a mole. The garden where this has been proved is as steep as on the side of the Malvern Hills, and is of the strongest red clay; but the Spergula takes hold of the gravel walks just as readily as of this clay. It is like a mulching over the clay, which never allows the clay to crack, be the Bummer ever so hot.
"The history of it is this. The proprietor, A. Mongredien, Esq., is a practical botanist; and to indulge in his favorite pursuit he has formed the most unique rock garden in the three kingdoms, at the foot of the slope, facing the north, for the growth of the fairest and scarcest cryptogamic plants in the British flora, from the tiniest ferns, through lycopodiuin, sphagnum, phascum, gymnostomum, Hymenostomum, trichostomum, dicranum, tortula, bryum, polystichum, hypnum, jungermannia, marchantia, and their extensive allies; also for British orchids, and the minutest and rarest alpine plants. Among the last, Spergula pilosa, as it is called, made its appearance; and increased so fast, and showed such delicate proportions, and such an inclina-tion not to be kept within the limits of its duo portion of the rock-work, that it seemed selfish to destroy so much of it without allowing kindred spirits to partake of the same pleasure and amusement. Patches of it were set in better soil, and better returns were made by it; till at last, from patchwork to a whole quilt, and from that to a full-stretched carpet, which you have just heard of, were made with ease and pleasure. * * But some of the great firms in the seed trade about London would not, or could not, believe in such marvels; they must see for themselves.
They did see, and were convinced that a tithe of the " properties" of this plant was not given. * * Mr. Summers has undertaken the responsibility of supplying the three kingdoms with plants sufficient to set the plant on foot, through the Messrs. Henderson, of the Wellington Road Nursery; that he has rented a greenhouse and so much ground for that purpose, and engaged a managing foreman to propagate the plant by the thousand and tens of thousands; that the concern will be' called the Spergula Nursery; that he will, or could, undertake to cover the whole of the Crystal Palace grounds with this plant in one season; but for the present, and to such a period', applications for it must be made through the Wellington Road Nursery." This all seems like success, and we hope it may so prove.

Q: query MySQL data from multiple tables with multiple entries with PHP I'm working on a database for monitoring sportinjuries. I have 2 tables, one is called injury the other one injury_list.
Injury looks like this:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
injury_id | name   | body_part  | first_mention | last_changed | status
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
|   2     |  Ben   |   arm      |   2013-06-08  |   2013-06-13 |   0  |
|   3     |  Rick  |   knee     |   2013-05-10  |   2013-06-12 |   0  |
|   4     |  Esther|   ankle    |   2013-05-26  |   2013-06-12 |   1  |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

and then we have injury_list which I use to store the updates from Physiotherapists and coaches
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
  list_id | injury_id | Comments               | trend | comment_added
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

|   6     |     4     | no changes so far..... |   2   |   2013-06-13 |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Trend is used to show if the injury got worse (1), better(2) or no change(3)
I have an overview off all injuries where I only use the INJURY table and a detailed page per injury, where I use information from both tables this all works fine.
now I want the TREND to show on the main page in the overview, and as you can understand I only want the latest trend (based on comment_added). I tried several several queries but I can't seem to understand how to righteously call the data.
I'm not realy good with joins, and I actually don't know if that is the solution here, I hope someone can help me out:
$result = mysqli_query($con,"
SELECT b.injury_id
     , bl.injury_id b.name
     , b.body_part
     , b.first_mention
     , b.last_changed
     , b.status
  FROM injury b
  JOIN injury_list bl
    ON bl.injury_id = b.injury_id
 ORDER
    BY status ASC
     , last_changed DESC;
");

thanks in advance for thinking with me.

A: Here's another method...
SELECT i.*
     , x.*
  FROM injury i
  JOIN injury_list x
    ON x.injury_id = i.injury_id
  JOIN
     ( SELECT injury_id
            , MAX(list_id) max_list_id
         FROM injury_list
        GROUP
           BY injury_id
     ) y
    ON y.injury_id = x.injury_id
   AND y.max_list_id = x.list_id;

A: You can do this by matching to a subquery that gets the latest comment_added for each injury_id.
SELECT
  b.injury_id, bl.injury_id b.name, b.body_part,
  b.first_mention, b.last_changed, b.status
FROM injury b
INNER JOIN injury_list bl ON b.injury_id = bl.injury_id
WHERE (bl.injury_id, bl.comment_added) IN (
  SELECT injury_id, MAX(comment_added)
  FROM injury_list
  GROUP BY injury_id)
ORDER BY status, last_changed DESC

A: ...and here's a third way, a simple LEFT JOIN to find the latest row to eliminate the subquery;
SELECT i.*,il1.*
FROM injury i
JOIN injury_list il1
  ON i.injury_id = il1.injury_id
LEFT JOIN injury_list il2
  ON i.injury_id = il2.injury_id
 AND il1.comment_added < il2.comment_added
WHERE il2.injury_id IS NULL

An SQLfiddle to test with.
EDIT: A quick (and, I realize not entirely easy to follow) explanation; The first join is a totally normal join to get an injury and a corresponding entry in injury_list. I then LEFT JOIN to injury list again to see if there exists a newer entry. If not, the left join will leave all fields in il2 NULL (ie, non existant) and we should show the row we just built. If there exists a newer entry, the fields in il2 will have the data from the newer entry, and in that case the row should not be shown.

REVIEW: 9 To 5 The Musical at The Alexandra
Posted by Dan Richards at Tuesday, November 16th, 2021 6:16pm
9 To 5 - The Musical debuted in 2008, and is based on the 1980 film of the same name. Featuring a score by musical icon, Dolly Parton this show is fun packed, beautifully choreographed and a dream to watch.
9 to 5 premiered in Los Angeles in 2008 and opened on Broadway in April 2009. It received 15 Drama Desk Award nominations - the most received by a production in a single year - as well as four Tony nominations. A national tour of the US launched in 2010, followed by a UK premiere - and subsequent tour - in 2012 and the show made its critically acclaimed West End debut in February 2019.
9 To 5 isn't Chekhov, nor does it profess to be. This is two hours of feel good, loud and proud fun which tells the story of Doralee, Violet and Judy – three workmates pushed to boiling point by their sexist and egotistical boss. Concocting a plan to kidnap him and turn the tables, we find out whether the ladies manage to reform their office, or if events unravel when the CEO pays an unexpected visit?
Most recently playing in Birmingham in 2019, the return of the show has been hotly anticipated - and its clear to see why! 9 to 5 screams 'Dolly' from the opening number and brings flamboyance, glitz, glamour and a true taste of the US to the UK. The set and costumes are stunning and the score is infectious - 9 To 5 is the perfect balance of sassy female attitude and laugh out loud humour, and is a joy to watch from the get-go.
Louise Redknapp reprises her role as Violet, having played her during the previous tour and London run. Best known for her pop career, Redknapp made her stage debut in Cabaret in 2017 and, four years on, is seemingly in her element. Her vocals are perfect and, although her pre-Covid stint in the role was fantastic, it's evident that she's more comfortable with the character now and able to indulge herself more.
Stephanie Chandos is sensational as Doralee Rhodes - the part made famous by Parton in the original film and one which Chandos previously covered. Her vocals are outstanding and her tenacity clear for all to see. Chandos oozes confidence and brings impeccable comic timing to the part, which is well received by the crowd.
Vivian Panka is making her UK stage debut with this production, having played a number of roles on stage in The Netherlands. 9 to 5 is a musical us Brits have taken to our hearts and, I think it's fair to say, Panka is an actor we'll be doing the same with. Her confidence is on show for all to see and she certainly doesn't hold back!
Her vocals were outstanding, in particular her characters solo; 'Get Out And Stay Out' which raised the roof off of the theatre.
Richard Taylor-Woods (Waitress, Mamma Mia) is the epitome of a seasoned pro. Taking on the role of Franklin Heart Jr, his brief is to play a baddy but there's something about the character that an audience loves and an element of humour that stops the role becoming evil. Needham strikes the perfect balance and showcases his considerable pedigree well.
However the very best part of the show was all three of our leading ladies coming together alongside our leading man. Playing off each other with a chemistry that was palpable, it felt like they had been in sync for decades rather than months.
This musical is heartwarming, funny and brilliant in so many ways - an absolute must-see whilst it's in town.
9 To 5 - The Musical plays at The Alexandra until Saturday 20th September. For more information, or to get tickets, head online to atgtickets.com/birmingham.

Recently we compared a dozen AMD and Intel desktop processors priced between $100 and $200 in order to determine which offered the best performance vs. price ratio for mainstream computer users. In the end, we concluded that the Core i5 750 was hands down the best offering at the upper range of the spectrum.
Those looking to spend around $150 had the option of getting either the Phenom II X4 925 or the Core i3 540. Depending on the user's needs we felt that either processor would get the job done, as they offer similar levels of performance, though we did lean towards the AMD Phenom II X4 for the extra pair of cores. Then as we approached the bottom end it seemed to be all AMD and we believe that for little over $100 the Phenom II X3 720 is the best option here.
In general, we had a good look at the best performers in this all-important price range and even mentioned a few worthy runner ups. But still we can't ignore there's an entire additional set of products worth checking out for those with tighter budgets or less demanding requirements. So we asked ourselves, what can be had for less than $100?
Today we will be focusing on almost a dozen AMD and Intel chips priced below this mark. Something to be aware of is that this article features just a single LGA1156 processor from Intel, while the rest are designed to run on the company's dying LGA775 platform. On the other hand we have five AMD processors, all of which support the latest AM3 socket and are backwards compatible with older AM2/AM2+ motherboards.
This time around AMD has a significant advantage over Intel in terms of flexibility, but the question remains: how do they compare performance-wise? Before we throw all these processors on our test bed to find out, we will check out each model and give a brief explaination on why we chose them for our round-up.

La mangusta dai piedi neri (Bdeogale nigripes ) è un mammifero carnivoro della famiglia degli Erpestidi.

Descrizione
Lunga 55-65 cm e pesante 2-3,5 kg, quella dai piedi neri è una mangusta grossa e massiccia, con testa pesante (lunghezza condilo-basale più di 100 mm), mascelle robuste, muso largo; il naso è un po' ingrossato, spesso nocciola chiaro o rosa carne. Le orecchie sono arrotondate, con bordo peloso. Gli arti, di media lunghezza, sono robusti e le zampe hanno quattro tozze dita (manca il primo dito) e artigli brevi e forti. Le suole plantari anteriori sono quasi nude, quelle posteriori pelose. Nella dentatura (di 40 denti) si notano canini dritti, lateralmente compressi, il primo premolare superiore e quello inferiore molto piccoli e il quarto premolare superiore molariforme. Ha pelo fitto, molto corto e aderente al corpo, quasi rasato su testa e muso, lungo sulla coda. Il corpo è grigio-bruno chiaro, finemente brizzolato; testa e gola sono grigio-biancastro; petto, torace e parte terminale degli arti sono bruno neri. Il ventre è poco più chiaro del dorso e la coda è tutta bianco-grigio o candida. Ha ghiandole anali ben sviluppate.

Distribuzione e habitat
La mangusta dai piedi neri si trova solamente nelle foreste pluviali dell'Africa centrale; il suo areale si estende dal fiume Cross, a ovest, attraverso Camerun e Repubblica Centrafricana, fino a Guinea Equatoriale, Gabon, Repubblica del Congo e Repubblica Democratica del Congo a nord del fiume Congo a sud e alla Rift Valley, nella Repubblica Democratica del Congo orientale, a est. Nonostante quanto veniva affermato in passato, non vive in Angola. Si incontra fino ai 1000 m di altitudine.

Biologia
Quasi notturna, vive sola o in coppie, in tane o altri ripari. Di abitudini terricole, non si arrampica volentieri sugli alberi. Si nutre di formiche e altri invertebrati, piccoli roditori e anfibi, ma anche di frutti. La durata della gestazione è sconosciuta e il parto è uniparo; il piccolo ha pelo lanoso e lungo, con zampe non ancora scure.

Population Health Training
Advancing work on Denver's opioid epidemic
Collaborating to end Utah's super utilizer crisis
The combined team of CDC fellows and staff at the Denver host site (l-r): Arthur Davidson, Dean McEwen, Emily McCormick, Seth Foldy, José Tomás Prieto, Judith Shlay, Wollelaw Agmas, and Aziza Arifkhanova.
In 2017, two health departments served as pilot sites and each engaged a multidisciplinary team of fellows to examine a priority health problem identified by the community. Additionally, a team of subject matter experts at CDC provided technical assistance to strengthen population health workforce capacity plans with the Mississippi Department of Health.
"This collaborative work with the fellows and our Denver Public Health staff has helped to support the launch and implementation of Denver Health's Center for Addictions Medicine which will offer a full continuum of care that provides the Denver Health patient access to an array of substance treatment services, through no wrong door. Our public health team will lead the evaluation of the Center and will use the work of the fellows to help guide the Center's ability to ensure comprehensive care for all patients and families affected by opioid use disorder."
Judith Shlay, MD, MSPH, associate director of Denver Public Health and project team lead
*Dr. Wollelaw (Wolle) Agmas is no longer with Denver Public Health. However, he was an integral part of this activity during his time there.
"The fellows have catalyzed efforts to integrate our public health practices with Utah Medicaid, showing the value of integration to both parties in improving the health of all Utah citizens."
Angela Dunn, MD, MPH, Utah State Epidemiologist, and Class of 2014 EIS officer
*Drs. Roberta Horth and Carl Grafe are no longer with the Utah Department of Health. However they were an integral part of this activity.
In 2016, more than 63,000 people died from drug overdoses, making it the leading cause of injury-related death in the United States. In Denver, the US age-adjusted death rate for drug overdose mortality in 2016 was 19.8 per 100,000 compared to Colorado's rate of 16.6 per 100,000 residents, making Denver one of the highest impacted cities in Colorado. Three fellows were selected to work alongside the Denver Public Health staff:
Dr. Wollelaw (Wolle) Agmas, Preventive Medicine Residency/Fellowship*
Dr. Aziza Arifkhanova, Prevention Effectiveness Fellowship
Dr. José Tomás (JT) Prieto Public Health Informatics Fellowship Program
Once on site, the fellows dove into the project. Working with their health department supervisor, they attended meetings and conducted interviews with key internal Denver Health and external stakeholders to grasp the extent of the opioid issues in Denver. The fellows attended trainings and visited relevant institutions to assess community needs and define the struggles inherent in solving the opioid crisis.
A key problem quickly became clear. While Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) is defined as a problematic pattern of opioid use leading to clinically significant impairment or distress (also referred to as opioid abuse, dependence, or addiction), there was a lack standard definitions and coding and documentation practices for OUD and opioid misuse within the health department and community. This led to confusion among providers, payers, and policy makers. Standardized definitions and coding and documentation practices are needed for Denver community stakeholders to accurately measure the problem and effectively coordinate treatment and policy interventions.
The interdisciplinary fellowship team applied their individual areas of expertise in informatics, economics, and clinical care in parallel with a holistic approach to address Denver's opioid epidemic. Working together with key partners and community stakeholders, the team has laid out a tiered plan to address the problem.
Short-term: Develop an operational definition of OUD and misuse at Denver Health.
Mid-term: Implement a standardized process to report and measure the burden, treatment progress, and gaps of OUD and misuse.
Long-term: Decrease opioid misuse, OUD, and opioid deaths.
The fellowship team assigned to Utah Department of Health, stationed in Salt Lake City, began work to understand the Medicaid super-utilizer problem and possible interventions. Super-utilizer refers to the small portion of the population that makes up a large portion of emergency room or hospital visits, and therefore strains public health budgets. At the Intermountain Clinic in Murray, UT, epidemiologists found that only 1 percent of their patients accounted for nearly 24 percent of patient costs, and 5 percent accounted for 51 percent of costs. These numbers are striking and Utah needed to learn more to address this issue. What are the characteristics of this patient population? What is causing the higher costs with this population? Are there ways to improve this situation?
The fellows assigned to this team include
Dr. Roberta Horth, Epidemic Intelligence Service officer*
Dr. Carl Grafe, Public Health Informatics Fellowship Program*
Dr. Srimoyee Bose, Prevention Effectiveness
This team is working together and with the Utah to identify the super-utilizers of the Medicaid system and ways to connect them with more appropriate care, thereby reducing the costs and improving the health outcomes of the individuals and the greater population. Their plan includes three objectives:
Define and identify super-utilizers.
Group and characterize the super-utilizer population.
Identify and model potential interventions.

US and Chilean navies commit to further biofuel research
26 August 2014	(Last Updated August 26th, 2014 18:30)
The US Navy and the Chilean Navy have agreed to continue their mutual research on advanced alternative fuels for surface vessels and navy aircraft, strengthening the US military's lead in extending the use of renewable energy.
The US Navy and the Chilean Navy have agreed to continue their mutual research on advanced alternative fuels for power surface vessels and navy aircraft, strengthening the US military's lead in extending the use of renewable energy.
Extending the four-year collaboration, the latest agreement enables both nations to boost energy security and deliver an increased certainty of energy supply and cost.
"The latest agreement enables both nations to boost energy security."
Both nations are also cutting their reliance on imported fuel.
The US Navy aims to have 50% of overall organisational use powered by alternative energy resources by 2020, while Chile plans to have 45% of its newly deployed capacity for 2014-2025 derived from non-conventional, renewable energy sources.
Chilean undersecretary of defense Marcos Robledo and US secretary of the navy Ray Mabus said in a joint statement: "The United States Department of the Navy, recognising that energy security is directly tied to military capability, is moving toward the sustained use of a 50 / 50 blended biofuel / petroleum product, and encourages its military partners to work toward certification of their aviation and maritime assets to use this blended product to ensure interoperability between respective navies is maintained."
In addition, the Chilean Navy has conducted a range of workshops since 2011 on particular projects related to the use of biofuels to power navy vessels.
Both navies will explore further collaboration on alternative fuels research projects and alternative energy trials.
In May, the US Navy supported the development of algae-based biofuel by the University of Arizona's Arizona Centre for Algae Technology and Innovation (AzCATI).

Taylor Report: Rwandans Denied their Rights Because the West gave Kagame Immunity, Segment 1
Regarding Paul Rusesabagina, Phil argues that the injustice of his arrest, rendition, and torture derives from the original failure of the USA, UK, and Canada to live up to the Arusha Accords, and to arrange for peace in Rwanda. Instead of peace, these countries backed a coup in Kigali in 1994 by the expatriate Tutsi invaders known as the Rwandan Patriotic Front (RPF). Since 1994, the Rwandan people have been martyred to keep RPF leader Paul Kagame in power. Like Victoire Ingabire, Rusesabagina will not get justice in Rwanda. That's why supporters of justice should demand that Rusesabagina should be released from Rwanda and allowed to return to the USA or Belgium.

WHFM: Herman's Radio & Record Room #12, Segment 1
My dad Herman Frederick Moe was a radio engineer & TV repairman, a country & western "cowboy singer" and rustic guitar player. He performed in the late 1930's on live radio before he enlisted in World War II as a radio-telephone technician. This show is my homage to him. My father loved the other side of radio as well – the listening side – it kept him company during many lonesome nights in the 30's, 40's, 50's & 60's. From my imagination to your ears – it's WHFM – vintage music from mid century America. This is music that I believe he would have enjoyed.
