Devotion...tragedy...unrequited love...youthful innocence and mature longing...all the ingredients are here. The narration is tight and the acting is on point. Too bad some heavy gut punches happen off-camera, such as the son dying or Fontaine dying. Fav scene: seeing Stefan again after his decline and the watcher realizing he still doesn't recognize her before she realizes it later at his house.
Despite having a near-Shakespearian level of tragedy, it's also one of the warmest and dreamiest films I've ever seen, with a 19th century Vienna that feels like a fairy tale I want to get lost in. One of the most European-feeling Classic Hollywood films, it's also unusually deep and thoughtful in its exploration of love and fate, with a wonderfully varied and nuanced performance by Joan Fontaine.
Irritating due to how great this should have been if not for a few baffling plot points.
Nov 24, 2018 Iulius E. S.
Joan Fontaine narrates in the opening: "I think everyone has two birthdays, the day of his physical birth and the beginning of his conscious life," which she intends and the viewer takes as the day a person falls in love. The platitude comes to a more resounding fruition when this ostensibly naive and weepy melodrama arrives at a late point of hard-earned clarity, rephrasing its earlier insinuations about fate, and subverting our trope-based expectations, into a sadder and tougher denouement.
Golden Age Hollywood romance doesn't get much better than Letter From an Unknown Woman, a powerful tale of doomed love.
not unenjoyable, but this is a fundamentally silly story about a young women with a pathetic infatuation for some pianist dude. the sort of thing i can't possibly take seriously.
This film travels too far down the path of romanticizing thoroughly unreciprocated love, but the exaggeration that it deploys to service its gluttonous narrative is unexpectedly compelling, and the thin characters are awkwardly joined in such a way that the end result, while misshapen, runs full circle to take on the desperate edge of real desire, the empty, one-sided pursuit of a person for reasons both indescribable and unavoidable.
Despite some irritating irrationalities and holes in the plot, it worked as a romantic drama reasonably well. Performances were good and stylistically its execution was on point.
Didn't love the first half of the film, but the second half was well worth the wait.
There are few characters in film history who so thoroughly exemplify the thrust of melodrama. This film, consequently, appears to stem its genre less from formula than from Lisa's actual core, hazarded, not unlike that of the unfortunate leading ladies of opera, on curtains that rise and fall, until they don't rise anymore.
A very earnest and well done bit of melodramatic nonsense that must have been en vogue at the turn of the century. Still, what an extraordinary beautiful and elegant picture it is - you might get lost in the romance of the images alone.

Fisherwomen contribute tonnes of fish, billions of dollars to global fisheries
Women's fishing activities around the world amount to an estimated 3 million tonnes of marine fish and other seafood per year, contributing significantly to food and livelihood security in all regions of the world. However, these contributions often go unnoticed.
A new study by researchers at the University of British Columbia aims to address this oversight by assembling and presenting the first quantitative estimates of catch by women and the associated value of what is brought to shore, on a global scale.
"We used a variety of sources, from national databases to local experts, to peer-reviewed and newspaper articles, in order to estimate how much women are catching in all countries and regions," said Sarah Harper, lead author of the study and a postdoctoral fellow with the OceanCanada Partnership and the Fisheries Economics Research Unit at UBC's Institute for the Oceans and Fisheries. "We calculated the value of those 3 million tonnes of seafood that women are catching to be around $5.6 billion per year or the equivalent of 12% of the landed value of all small-scale fisheries catches globally."
The fish and invertebrates that women catch go towards feeding themselves and their families with some also sold in local markets. This means that the economic impact of these catches goes beyond the initial sale in the market, adding up to some $17 billion per year.
"And if we adjust these values to account for the variation between countries in purchasing power, the economic impact of women's catches is closer to $26 billion," Harper said. "Although there is increasing attention worldwide to the role of women and gender in fisheries, these numbers further emphasize the significance of the contributions by women in a sector where their work continues to be overlooked and undervalued."
Women in Asia, Africa, and Oceania were found to have the highest rates of participation in fishing activities. Overall, 2 million women participate in nearshore coastal fisheries worldwide using low-technology fishing gear.
"For many people, the numbers may come as a surprise. Fishing has long been considered a strictly male sphere. There has been such a lack of attention to the role of women in fisheries that some fisherwomen prefer to call themselves 'fishermen' so that their contributions count as much as those of their male counterparts," said Daniel Pauly, co-author of the study and principal investigator of the Sea Around Us initiative at UBC. "What happens, then, is that when you search for participation statistics, they show that there are no women in fisheries, which is not true".
For Rashid Sumaila, co-author of the paper and head of the Fisheries Economics Research Unit, the numbers highlighted in the study are especially significant in contexts where women's income goes disproportionately towards household provisioning and children's health and education.
"This study translates the important work of researchers who have been working on this topic for decades into the language of policymakers, where dollar amounts are often the currency for evaluating policy priorities," Sumaila said. "Thus, our hope is that these findings are used to design policies that promote women's participation in and contributions to the fisheries sector."

Huddersfield Hit with Fine for Paddy Power Stunt
News Regulation
by Andie Hughes September 9, 2019, GMT+0000, 18:37 pm September 9, 2019, GMT+0000, 18:38 pm
Huddersfield Town have been handed a £50,000 fine by the Football Association (FA) after they were found to be in breach of the organisation's rules on kit advertising.
The fine is the result of what the club had admitted was a 'publicity stunt' in co-ordination with bookmaker Paddy Power in July. The club unveiled what they said was the new shirt for the 2019-20 season, which featured a sash showing the Paddy Power logo. A Huddersfield Town team then wore the shirts for a friendly game against Rochdale on July 17.
That put them in breach of the FA rules on kit advertising that set a guideline of 250 square centimetres for all shirt advertising.
The FA also revealed that the chairman of Huddersfield, Phil Hodgkinson, had asked the referee, Martin Coy, to ban the kit as this would help gain publicity for the campaign. According to the FA, Coy was uncomfortable at the request and said that it was not his role to ban kits.
According to the club's operations manager, Ann Hough, the decision to use the kit was not communicated to the board until the day of the game, and as it was a friendly match, the original presumption was that the kit rules would not apply.
Both Huddersfield and Paddy Power have admitted that the shirt was a stunt for marketing purposes and subsequently, the club released details of its official sponsor-free kit.
In a further complication, Hodgkinson claimed that the club risked legal action from Paddy Power if they didn't wear the shirt for the game against Rochdale.
In reaching its decision, the FA emphasised that the fact that the referee had been involved was an aggravating factor in the penalty for what it described as an irresponsible decision.

Dec 21: Brian Blanchfield on the Day as a Literary Unit
Differences from Yesterday, a Day like Today
[a talk given at NonfictioNow 2018]
When "Writing the Day" was sent to me as a prompt, the proposed date, the summer solstice, put me in mind of the most influential day, as such, in contemporary poetry, Bernadette Mayer's Midwinter Day. A novella-length, six-part maximalist poem (an epic, say some) whose intention was to get down everything that happened in the poet's life and mind on a single day in 1978, December 22. The eventual feat was greater for having chosen for the experiment the shortest day of the year. Mayer's quotidian is subversive even within the particular avant-garde tradition of the New York School poets—Frank O'Hara's lunch poems never included diapers or pills or cleaning products; his social, cruisy public square wasn't like hers in Lenox, Mass, where she might be asked outside the post office if she'd mind some pointers about her last dinner party. The work belongs to poetry as much as to conceptual art, and indeed a similar book of Mayer's, Memory, was a central exhibit in WACK, the 2007 feminist conceptual art retrospective in Los Angeles, alongside other auto-documentary and bio-metric art that used the day as a unit: notably Mary Kelly's framed records of the input (mashed peas, bananas, and in what quantities) and actual smears of "output" from her baby boy, day by day, tracking also his vocalizations and the attributes of her emotions about their mutual need. The day in such work is a convenient reset, comparable to days before and after, syntagmatic, ongoing, contingent.
When I place my faith, or reset my faith, in a daily writing practice these days, I navigate by the star of James Schuyler, the poet and art writer and diarist and reader of diaries (Gilbert White's and Virginia Woolf's, continually). He's known, like Mayer, for his small-scoped epics ("A Few Days," "The Morning of the Poem"), but also for his skinny, hyperattentive lyrics that consider the single day, the whole day, as an entity. Among them are the poems "December 28, 1974" and "February 13, 1975" and "I think" (which begins "I will write you a letter, June day. Dear June 5th") and "Song" which enacts the close of a day: "A weeping beech is gray, / a copper beech is copper red. / Tennis nets hang / unused in unused stillness. / A car starts up and / whispers into what will soon be night. / A tennis ball is served. / A horsefly vanishes. / A smoking cigarette. / A day (so many and so few) / dies down a hardened sky / and leaves are lap-held notebook leaves / discriminated barely / in light no longer layered." James Schuyler: expert noticer, and aficionado of the indefinite pronoun. Each element introduced carries with it a suggestion that it is just one of its kind, a specimen, but its chance appearance is celebrated, another daub of paint in the composition.
Schuyler's best friend, the painter Fairfield Porter, said that an artist is someone who "distinguishes endlessly." I like this definition, by which Schuyler certainly qualifies. His "selecting eye," as Eileen Myles has called it, typically sifts among equivalences in the field. Douglas Crase, in a wonderful essay on Schuyler called "A Voice Like the Day" quotes Porter again to say that there are many artists in history who have had an "afternoon sensibility," that is a sensibility of reflection, but few that have a "morning sensibility" like Schuyler's, a sensibility of observation. Just to say what is. Or, more to the point, to note, as Schuyler puts it in the opening line of a poem, like a banner naming his intention to discern: "differences from yesterday."
"Differences from yesterday." I've titled my current morning notebook that. Or, rather, each time I type in a few more days from my notebook into my computer, I do so in a growing document called "Differences from Yesterday." I live in Moscow, Idaho, and there's a place outside I can sit in the warm month mornings. I scan my little downslope part of "Orchard Addition," which is the official name for our neighborhood, as the country assessor parcels it. I've lived here about fifteen months. So I know from experience what follows what. The crocuses, the cherry tree, the poppies, the bee balm, the lavender, the lunaria annua. We pull a new dry stalk of lunaria for our giant plastic wall peacock to wear as a topknot crest: that's when it's winter.
In May after the creek is highest from snowmelt, there are morels like little canelés hidden on the south sides of forested hills. Look for where a trickle might collect, up against a knob of cedar root. The last rain falls in late June. The sun's transit just tops the tall fir tree east of us: then it's summer. The bachelor quail are up and down from the sloped roof in a business I do not understand. The two kinds of ant. The wheat goes blond. The squirrels eat the Bings higher up in the tree and drop the pits. The two kinds of cicada, one blind, pinging into your water bottle on the north side of hills. The haze first and then the smell of wildfire. The crabapples fall. In the last week before first frost, the plague of aphids, descending daily by midafternoon to pedestrian breathing level. The pileated woodpeckers. The first moose sighting, behind the Wendy's, in the Moscow Pullman Daily News. I write first thing in the morning, and I might track some one or two micro-events I spot, and permit entry to passing thoughts or dedicatory feelings or regrets or flashes of overnight visions, and I might pivot on something about yesterday: the smallest thing I saw, the moment I felt acutely alive. It's a ledger for one but not the other kind of knowing: connaître (familiarity), not savoir, as the poet and essayist Merrill Gilfillan claims about his "days in place" writings.
One more quote from Schuyler that is apt, from my favorite poem of his, "A Stone Knife," poem as thank you note, dated (of course) December 26, 1969. Kenward Elmslie had given him a letter knife. The poem contains what passes for his own definition of art: "object in which / the surprise is that / the surprise, once / past, is always there: / which to enjoy is / not to consume." It's this rising wakeful sense of discovery that I count on, writing the day, tracking real phenomena, integrating mental or emotional weather, incorporating an item or phrase from our eight-page daily newspaper, working and cascading it all in sentences over line breaks. When something comes of the assemblage, it is, however miniature, a place to dwell, a supply not to exhaust. I wouldn't be the first to call it prayer. Ann Lauterbach calls it traction, what we risk forfeiting in our edgeless over-mediated world, what we return to art for, "a proxy experience of the artist in relationship with her materials." We value "the ways of distinguishing, turns of mind, indeed the very moments of choice in the motions of composition."
In Calamities, her 2016 book of short essays, poetic daily dispatches, Renee Gladman is in close relationship with her materials. I return to it often. Each of more than fifty prose entries opens identically, "I began the day…" It is a pleasure at a certain point to realize the book is conducting a repeatable experiment, a ritual. Each day opens either with a bit of dream capture to unspool and study, or an activity, including mental activity, to chronicle. Sometimes of a kind of private metaphysics you are astounded to recognize as like your own, but never before articulated. Other days the author's particularity is no one else's, as when, while reading Herta Müller, she determines that she herself is Eastern European, irked that she can get no one in her life to agree that she is "an Eastern European African American." Gladman is writing a daybook, but she is also building an apparatus, a kind of algorithmic machine into which the material of the next new day can be input to run the program. This self-accommodation, or psychic processing, comes to be profound, poignant, when it becomes clear that the author is waking every morning in a season of actual professional humiliation, as her tenure at Brown is being denied, because, as we overhear the university president telling her, she is as a fiction writer "not exactly a slam dunk." The metaphor only underlines the apparently racist situation of her peer review. Here are the opening paragraphs of two entries in Calamities. Which—neither, both—is a dream?
I began the day in a faculty meeting—though I was late in coming, having just walked into the room. I didn't know how I had gotten there. The doors were closed—that's how I knew I was late—and, much worse, locked when quietly I tried to open them. However, upon knocking, I heard the director say my name, and I thought at least I had been expected. A senior member opened the door and thought it would be a good time to play on joke on me, saying you can't come in here, though I'd just heard my name. I didn't think it was funny since often I can't attend meetings, since being junior often meant I couldn't. But everyone laughed and welcomed me seniorly. Faculty meetings are strange; there is always someone those whose rank you don't understand, someone who had seemed just a visiting lecturer or scholar now sitting with his back very straight and holding a clipboard. (Calamities, 12)
I began the day thinking about the university level—where it was and who was allowed to go there—and felt in my body a sense that there were a series of gates to pass through, a grand lawn, a series of gates and then an elevator to take you down into the earth. The university level would be on the top floor of something that rose above all the surrounding structures but did so, inversely, deep beneath the ground, perhaps forty levels below, where meaning was made and the core burned brightly. (66)
The nightmare comes and goes in the machinery into which she feeds the material of her life.
Good evening once again from our NBC headquarters here in New York. This was day Day 651 of the Trump Administration. When Brian Williams's signature opening of The 11th Hour numbered the days only in the single digits—it seemed then that impeachment or resignation was the likeliest outcome. How long could it go on? In January 2017, when John and I were living in a furnished sublet in Iowa City where I was teaching for a semester, I had just begun the other daybook project I've been keeping on and off since. Just after my first classes but before the inauguration, we raised the blinds on the last window in the house, in the guest room we'd been using to stow the homeowner's uglier art and furniture: there between the storm pane and the wire mesh of the screen was a small brown bat, suspended, alone. It was, we came to realize, in torpor.
I would walk in, in the mornings, sometimes sketch it (right down to the metatarsals, only two toes curled in the tiny squares of the mesh were holding its body weight), note how and where its posture or position in the window was different. I thought of coma patients whose movements are involuntary flexions or extensions. Speculate a little bit about it, essaying, then take in the brown, cold, hard day beyond it. I never saw its face, facing north from our north-facing window.
Eventually the little park you could see through the bare trees would have people shooting baskets in gloves, bundled toddlers on the swings. Wintering was durational. It was a hard season for me and John. One day sunshine, the smell of marijuana, frat boys dragging out their cornhole ramps, plunk of beanbag and—"dude"—masculinist strain in the voices no less vernal for it. The bat had let down a wing overhead, like a sail. It was a thrill: translucent, like brown bubble gum stretched yellowly. The daybook I was keeping, about the bat in the morning, about the house and our relationship never finding the right room in it, about the first hundred days of the Trump administration, on the ground and in the air, about MSNBC and The West Wing on which we binged at night—the project came to hover around one pressing inquiry: when would the end of torpor come, how would this creature know, what thermostat or sensor did it have to cue whatever pheromone that would resuscitate the system again and resume its active life? In some ways, that's still the inquiry that I reset and investigate in the local atmosphere I walk in, from house to studio, one foot still in the orchard of dream.

By day, your girl's a normal kid. At night, she wears this special costume to transform into Owlette, adventurer and crime-fighter!
"Great fit. She loves it. Be careful of the Velcro sticking to the costume and causing fuzz when you pull it off. Always secure the Velcro."
"My 4 year old daughter is 3' 8" and quite slender. I ordered the 4/6 size and it was just a little big, but not excessively. She may not fill it out, but she will be wearing clothes under it and it will be fine. Very pleased with the quality of this costume. Nice heft to the material. Came with gloves, wings, a full head mask and body suit that covers tips of shoes to neck. Nice little velcro addition at the neck of the suit to enable the wings to be put on and not ride up high on the neck."
"My three year old daughter loves this costume. The material isn't flimsy at all. It fits well. We are going to get a lot of use out of this costume. It won't be just another Halloween costume to throw in the corner when the holiday is over. My kids have been playing with these from day one. My five year old son got the cat boy costume. "


Southern California: Tetra Tech staff implemented a statistically-based decision methodology for remediating elevated levels of carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (CPAHs) in soil to background levels at numerous former MGP sites and commercial/residential areas located near former MGPs using a database representative of background CPAH levels in Southern California. The decision methodology and background CPAH database developed from this work were adopted by the California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) as a pragmatic management tool for the soil cleanup process at MGP sites in Southern California.
Northern California: On behalf of PG&E and the U.S. Navy, Tetra Tech staff worked collaboratively with a team of consultants and Cal/EPA Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) to create a database representative of background CPAH levels in Northern California for use in a statistically-based methodology for remediating CPAH impacted sites (e.g., former manufactured gas plant sites). The resulting CPAH database was adopted by DTSC as a pragmatic management tool for the soil cleanup process at MGP sites in Northern California.

Clamor is hazardous to your health. Designers have the Rx.
Imagine bright lights, beeping monitors, crowds of strangers and workers filling the corridors. Now add large equipment on wheeled carts, computer screens everywhere, and the voice of overhead paging speakers. When you complete the picture with the shuffle of partially clothed bodies, today's hospitals are more akin to 24-hour Las Vegas casinos than the home-like spa settings that are conducive to recuperation.
Mix in the pervasive sense of personal vulnerability and drama, and the need to get things done quickly, with no tolerance for error, and the hospital — a place most of us will encounter at some point in our lives — is far from the peaceful environment needed to support healing.
In fact, the clamor impedes recovery: Rising blood pressure, increased respiratory rates, sleep deprivation and anxiety are well documented in adults overexposed to noise. The World Health Organization recommends that noise in hospital rooms shouldn't be above 30 to 40 decibels. (For comparison, the rustling of leaves is 20 decibels, and highway traffic is 75 decibels.) A study published in 2012 by University of Chicago assistant dean Dr. Veneet Arora found that average patient-room noise level was closer to 50 decibels and sometimes spiked to 80. This is like sleeping next to a running dishwasher all night. No wonder standard hospital satisfaction surveys report patients complaining about noise twice as often as about the food.

As early as 1859, Florence Nightingale believed that noise delayed healing. In Notes on Nursing, Nightingale writes, "Unnecessary noise, then, is the most cruel absence of care which can be inflicted either on sick or well." In 1918, one of the foremost American architects in healthcare design, Edward Fletcher Stevens, called for new technologies to reduce noise; he advocated the removal of "nurse call electric bells" and worried about vacuum cleaner racket. Even Mark Twain was recruited to join The Society for the Suppression of Unnecessary Noise, in an early-20th-century effort to minimize steamboat whistles in the East River as they passed though hospital zones.
The first comprehensive acoustic regulations for hospitals in the modern era appeared in the 2010 edition of Guidelines for Design and Construction of Health Care Facilities, published by the nonprofit Facility Guidelines Institute. The institute brought together an interdisciplinary group of architects, engineers, human behaviorists, acousticians, and others to set standards for healing environments. The guidelines cover a wide range of issues, from internal noise isolation of a patient's room to vibration isolation of mechanical equipment to dampening exterior noise impacts on the surrounding community.
The Acoustical Society of America has been vital in developing numerical ratings to measure interior walls, ceilings, floors, doors, windows, and exterior wall configurations. The larger the number the more successful the material is at preventing noise from passing through. Establishing such standards is a step in the right direction. But merely focusing on compliance with a single numerical rating risks losing the potential for more highly informed acoustical design decisions. More important than trying to solve the problem with a number is finding the cause of the problem and addressing it at the source.
The hospital experience is dominated by equipment noise. From the monitor next to the patient's bed to the neighbor's television, from pagers and alarms to mechanical equipment noise, there is no end to the cacophony found in a patient room. Other than the obvious need for regular equipment maintenance, options to keep unwanted noise down could include locating TV speakers close to a patient's bed, using headphones, or providing speakers integrated into pillows.
Hospitals are making progress. To minimize overhead paging, many are now incorporating integrated pagers, texting, and synchronized internal communication among staff. Sound-level monitors at nursing stations also help keep staff aware of their behavior. A device called the "Yacker Tracker" has been installed at Veterans Administration hospitals in Florida and at Roger Williams Hospital in Providence. It is similar to a stoplight, turning from green to yellow to red to alert people in the vicinity when sound levels reach an uncomfortable level.
Hospitals are also visually cluttered places, requiring designers to keep in mind the important relationship of visual and auditory senses. Providing a view and connection to nature can have a positive effect on the mind. At the recently completed Lunder Building at Massachusetts General Hospital, every patient room and the staff lounges have been designed with calming views. Open gardens of all varieties and sizes, whether on ground level or atop a roof, have the power to heal. At Hershey Medical Center in Pennsylvania, multiple healing gardens provide respite from a busy and noisy clinical environment for patients, family and staff alike.
Even at a distance, patients are more apt to be negatively affected by noise when they can see the corresponding unpleasant source. Like covering your eyes or ears in a scary movie, reducing the number of sensory inputs is calming. Similarly, lowering light levels tends to cause people to tone down their voices. Lighting, then, is an invaluable tool in reducing noise.
Good design is sometimes limited by regulation. Infection control obviously is critical. But as Erica Ryherd, an acoustical specialist at the Georgia Institute of Technology, writes in her 2010 article "Too Noisy to Heal," poor sound environments are a result of reflections from numerous hard surfaces that hospitals favor because they are easy to clean. As a result, noise mitigation solutions mainly have been confined to ceiling materials.
Although infection-control measures must be followed, marquee cancer centers such as Memorial Sloan-Kettering in New York City and MD Anderson in Houston, and community hospitals such as St. Joseph's in Wisconsin are going against norms by using carpet in the hallways of their patient-care spaces. Carpets have meant quieter corridors and greater patient satisfaction. St. Joseph's reports evidence that carpeting reduces staff fatigue as well. The hospitals have also acknowledged the need for higher levels of maintenance for carpeting and have adopted a rigorous program that supports such maintenance.
Another regulatory imperative for sound control is HIPAA — the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act — which establishes national rules for patient privacy. Hospitals understand that poorly designed acoustical environments can pose a serious threat to confidentiality if private conversations between doctor and patient or among clinical staff can be overheard. Still, privacy should not be the only goal for designers. Human presence perhaps creates some unwanted noise, but it should be weighed against the positive influence of human connection. Sounds of water, music, and other calming sounds from nature have proven to be therapeutic as well.
It is not just patients who are affected by noise. Hospital staffers consistently report exhaustion and burnout due to the continued exposure. The Boston Globe's coverage of "alarm fatigue" found medical errors, delayed care, and even deaths could be attributed to staff becoming desensitized to the constant bleating of alarms. On one 15-bed unit at Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, staffers documented an average of 942 alarms per day — about one every 90 seconds.
Some owners are taking charge. A 2011 article in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch described how Memorial Hospital in Belleville, Illinois, adopted the national Silent Hospitals Help Healing, or SHHH, campaign. "The hospital's maintenance staff replaced squeaky wheels, installed noise-absorbing ceiling tiles, and flattened the thresholds at the entrances to patient rooms," the article read. Beyond those structural improvements, Memorial Hospital staff began sending text messages to doctors, reducing noisy overhead paging announcements "from an average of 100 pages per day to only three." A tangible act such as this from the owner's side sends a strong message about the importance of acoustic comfort, and it certainly is a strong booster for both patient and staff satisfaction.
Acoustics in healthcare is a relatively new area of specialization. Merely mitigating noise through sound-absorbing materials is not enough. We need to be thinking actively of hospitals as multicultural, multi-layered environments.
After all, our ears are "on" 24 hours a day. Some of us sleep through everything at night and yet hear the baby stirring. We can hear noises from a very soft whisper to an airplane engine and everything in between. Acoustic transmission and perception of noise is complex, and to create the right balance, a holistic approach is needed: one that considers use of advanced technology, connection between the senses, and behavioral and cultural education for everyone involved.

Hot Take: The Depp/Heard Trial it risks becoming the epitome of the instant-movie. The first trailer, which anticipates the film's release in less than twenty-four hours, arrived in record time only a few weeks after the announcement of the project. A speed to embarrass sacred monsters of the seventh art such as Steven Spielberg, who took "well" twenty-three days to complete a masterpiece like Duel (thirteen for shooting and ten for editing). All names involved in the film would be satisfied if Hot Takes should have even a tenth of the success of the film that launched the father of ETit doesn't take long to imagine it.
A story that has become part of the cultural zeitgeist?
Johnny Depp vs Amber Heard, the movie about the trial arrives: the cast
Leading such a production tour de force was Sarah Lohman, a filmmaker known for rapidly shot, low-budget work such as horror Secrets in the woods or bad comedy Good Satan. But why such a hurry? Adam Lewison, the content manager of the Tubi platform explained that the times were shortened as much as possible "to timely capture a story that has become part of the cultural zeitgeist".
Lewison works for yet another free streaming service looking for its niche: Tubi has bet heavily on Hot Take: The Depp/Heard Trial, producing and distributing it exclusively on its platform. Also participating in the project is MarVista Entertainment (subsidiary of Fox), whose partnership with Tubi does not stop only at this film. "The idea is to try to connect viewers to stories with this kind of social relevance and current resonance. Looking at certain products will thus become a must for any fan of pop culture or celebrity drama," said MarVista EVP Creative of Affairs Hannah Pillemer.

Stand on trial
Johnny Depp is reportedly dating his former legal defender
The film promises not to limit its narrative arc to a mere account of the trial, also trying to tell the love story of the ex-spouses (before it exploded). To interpret the protagonists of the story are two actors who have already appeared in successful series such as Mark Hapka and Megan Davis. Judging by the trailer, Zach's performer in Ghost Whisperer looks believable as Depp: Hapka not only copies the star's long tail and bit of Pirates of the Caribbean but it also mimics his characteristic tone of voice well. For his part, Davis returns the portrait of a Amber Heard that appears almost a woman on the verge of a nervous breakdown. On the other hand, as they say in the trailer, The trial already seems from the beginning "to have a clear favorite": Johnny Depp. Hot Take: The Depp/Heard Trial will it last less than the time it took to make it? Or will it be a success? The session to decide has just been opened.
Johnny Depp and Amber Heard, from love to trial: the story. PHOTO
After meeting on the set of the film The Rum Diary, the two actors got married in 2015 but their marriage lasted a few months. For years there have been harsh accusations against each other. The verdict of the proceeding has arrived: the actress has defamed her ex-husband and will have to pay him over 10 million. Even Johnny Depp will have to compensate Amber Heard for when the actor's lawyer called her allegations 'a scam'
June 1st arrived jury verdict in the Libel Trial: Amber Heard defamed Johnny Depp and will have to pay over 10 million dollars The actor will also have to compensate Heard for $2 million for when his attorney called his allegations "a hoax.". Her ex-husband had sued her because in 2018 the actress wrote an editorial on the Washington Post in which – even without mentioning the actor – she said she had become a public figure who represented the Domestic violence
The trial was yet another clash between the two since the actress filed for divorce in 2016. Since then, both have turned harsh accusations and their story ended up in the classrooms of several law courts
Johnny Depp and Amber Heard met in 2009 on the set of The Rum Diarya film released in theaters in 2011. In the film, he played the part of a penniless journalist who met Chenault, Heard's character, and started a story with her. relation behind her boyfriend

Adam Murray expressed his delight after watching his Mansfield Town side overturn a 3-1 deficit to beat Dagenham & Redbridge in Sky Bet League 2.
The Stags were still a goal behind in the 81st minute, but late strikes from Krystian Pearce and Adi Yussuf sealed a memorable win for Murray's men.

Health committee backs minimum pricing
By OLN News Team
Drastic reforms of the alcohol industry – including minimum pricing – will be recommended by MPs next month, according to a report.
The Guardian says the House of Commons health select committee wants a 50p minimum unit price to reduce alcohol-related deaths and injuries, despite opposition from the government and the Tory front bench.
The newspaper reports the committee's 120-page report, published on January 7, accuses the government of "extraordinary naivety" in introducing 24-hour licensing and is critical of retailers and producers of alcoholic drinks.
The report is said to criticise loss-leading deals in supermarkets and to recommend tougher restrictions on alcohol sponsorship of events which attract a young audience.
It also proposes greater rights for local councils to take action against problem premises, according to the newspaper.

Cracking Algae's growth code could help us breed more productive food crops
Researchers have identified the mechanisms algae use to photosynthesise and grow so rapidly. In the future, these traits could be transferred to some of the world's most important staple crops, to boost their yields and grow more food.
By Emma Bryce
Algae are phenomenal carbon fixers. In fact, they are responsible for one-third of the carbon fixation that occurs globally. They suck up vast quantities of carbon dioxide, covert it into sugars through photosynthesis, and grow in gigantic blooms over vast water bodies.
Now scientists have cracked the code behind algae's ability to intensify photosynthesis—and think they can potentially apply it to staple crops such as rice and wheat to enhance their production, too.
The cellular apparatus that makes algae growth possible is called a carbon-concentrating mechanism (CCM), which works by bringing carbon into close proximity with enzymes that quickly convert it into sugars. In algae, that process occurs within a structure called the pyrenoid that's situated inside the organism's chloroplasts. The researchers' main aim was to identify, for the first time, the proteins that make up the pyrenoid and allow it to do its job.
The research took place over the course of two studies, jointly published in the journal Cell. In the first, the Princeton University-led academics focused on a green algae called Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. Using a protein-tagging technique developed for the study, they screened the algae for different kinds of proteins in the pyrenoid. Once they had isolated the proteins, they examined how these functioned and interacted with one another, building up a complex map of their relationships inside the pyrenoid.
In total, this screening process highlighted 89 previously-unidentified pyrenoid proteins: the researchers now know these play hugely varied roles in managing the algae's CCM. For example, some of the proteins are thought to actively transport carbon into the cells, while others are responsible for maintaining the structure of the pyrenoid itself.
Discover more: Why newer cars aren't always better for the climate
The discovery provides "a detailed blueprint of the algal CCM, revealing dozens of new targets for transfer into crop plants," the researchers write. That lays the path for further research into the proteins' precise functions. And with this information, wheat, rice, and other crops essential to global food security could feasibly be engineered to include the carbon-concentrating traits that algae possess.
In theory this growth boost could give them an inbuilt safeguard against extreme heat, drying trends, and other factors that are expected to limit future crop yields. "Due to a rapidly rising global population and a finite agricultural land area, novel approaches are essential to maintain food security," says the study's lead author, Martin Jonikas. "If we could engineer other crops to concentrate carbon, we could address the growing world demand for food."

A landmark digital tourism initiative is guiding visitors to explore Queensland's destinations as Tourism and Events Queensland rolls out Australia's largest tourism network of iBeacons across the state.
In Townsville for the Palaszczuk Government's first Community Cabinet, Minister for Tourism, Major Events and Small Business, Kate Jones, said 150 iBeacons would be installed across Queensland's 13 tourism destinations at airports, visitor information centres, national parks and other popular tourism attractions.
"Using new location-based technology, the beacons will automatically deliver users of the This is Queensland app with information about the top things to see and do in the area," Ms Jones said.
"The beacons will also be used at major events, alerting attendees to information about the event and destination.
"It's technology that will enhance the visitor experience and makes discovering Queensland's destinations easy and enjoyable."
Tourism and Events Queensland CEO Leanne Coddington said the app aimed to better connect visitors with their destination and encourage users to share their experiences with family and friends on social media using #thisisqueensland.
"The app and beacons form part of TEQ's strategy to evolve Queensland tourism's digital presence using leading-edge technology," Ms Coddington said.
"It follows the launch of the new www.Queensland.com and This is Queensland app in January."

The entertainment and movie industry is all about creating authenticity. Often times that involves reproducing an environment that requires ice, snow, or other cold, wintery themes. It could be a movie that takes place during Christmas, a scene that focuses on winter sports like skiing or snowboarding, or perhaps the characters are merely supposed to deliver their performance over a backdrop of snow or ice. However, just because the story calls for snow and ice doesn't mean that Mother Nature will cooperate. That's where industrial ice crushers and blowers come into play.
Big budget movies may have the funds available to fly the entire cast and crew off to some exotic wintery vista; however, for smaller productions or brief, fleeting scenes it may simply not be in the budget. Industrial ice crushers and ice blowers can come to the rescue by quickly providing a man-made set that rivals the real thing without pricey travel and relocation costs.
Just because the ice and snow produced by industrial equipment is manmade that doesn't make it artificial. Industrial ice crushers and ice blowers create actual flaked snow and ice that will look and behave just like the kind that falls from the clouds. This ensures that the scenery looks authentic and behaves appropriately when it is interacted with by actors or props. This typically provides a much better option than artificial substances that may not melt, clump, or ball as they are supposed to.
Some scenes may call for special effects such as a snowy gust of wind or a bank of snow blowing out as something crashes into it. Industrial blowers are ideal for this type of special effect since they can deliver impressive blowing force and distance and help capture the effect perfectly. They can also be used for a variety of other great special effects as needed.
Out in nature snow and ice can be very unpredictable and dangerous. Actors or even professional stuntmen can easily be harmed by hidden rocks, uneven layers or snow, or unexpected clumps. By creating the snow and ice with industrial equipment such factors can be taken into consideration and the entire scene can be optimized for safety.
Even if a movie can be filmed in a wintery paradise, there is certainly no guarantee that the natural environment will cooperate with the production schedule. Unseasonably warm days still occur and just because snow was expected doesn't mean it will actual form. Industrial ice crushers and ice blowers can add that extra degree of control that will keep production on schedule and ensure that everything is just as it should be in terms of ice and snow.
Semco designs and manufactures high quality, dependable industrial ice crushers and ice blowers that are ideal for use in the entertainment industry. Our specialists will work closely with you to create a system that perfectly fits your needs.

Q: Rotating a polygon to get min height, with fixed max width I was going through computational geometry problems and encountered the following problem, and couldn't come up with an answer.
What I want is: Given a fixed width W, I need to rotate a simple 2D polygon with n points such that it width won't exceed W, and to get a minimum height polygon.
A picture for illustration:

I can start rotating the polygon and check for its height and width each time, but obviously this will be very expensive and inaccurate..
I found this answer, but it's for convex polygons and without the width limitations and couldn't figure how(if possible) to do the necessary adjustments
Any suggestions?

A: When a convex polygon is rotated, the plot of its width and of its height* as functions of the angle are piecewise sinusoidal functions. You can establish this by considering antipodal pairs (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotating_calipers). By simple geometric considerations, you can find the amplitude and phase of the sinusoids, and the angles where they intersect.
Now if you construct the width function, you can find the angles at which it is exactly the specified W (by solving A.sin(Θ-Φ) = W in the relevant intervals), and from the angle obtain the corresponding value of the height.
If your polygon is concave, you can obtain its convex hull in linear time (in the size of the polygon) by the Melkman's algorithm (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convex_hull_of_a_simple_polygon). Then rotating calipers and the resolution of the sinusoid equations also take linear time (in the size of the hull).

*The plot of the height is that of the width with a 90° shift.

BEIJING -- Asian stock markets rose Monday as investors shrugged off weaker-than-expected American jobs data and looked ahead to the signing of a U.S.-Chinese trade pact.
Benchmarks in Shanghai, Tokyo, Hong Kong and Southeast Asia advanced. Japanese markets were closed for a holiday.
Investors showed little concern over Friday's data showing American employers added fewer jobs than forecast in December. Concern over a potential U.S.-Iranian conflict faded.
Traders looked ahead to this week's signing of an interim U.S.-Chinese trade deal, which they hope will be a step toward ending a tariff war that threatens to drag down global economic growth.
The "Phase 1" agreement has helped to ease market jitters, though economists warn it leaves major disputes unresolved and the outlook for negotiations is unclear.
Investors also were encouraged by President Donald Trump's decision to resume a regular trade policy dialogue with Beijing that Washington pulled out of in July 2017.
Markets start the week "on a cautiously optimistic tone" as investors look ahead for the possibility of further U.S.-China trade progress, said Mizuho Bank in a report.
However, "thornier issues such as enforcement may come back to haunt further negotiation progress," the bank warned.
The Shanghai composite Index gained just under 0.1% to 3,094.02 and Hong Kong's Hang Seng gained 0.8% to 28,862.20.
Seoul's Kospi advanced 0.7% to 2,222.67 while Sydney's S&P-ASX 200 shed 0.4% to 6,893.40.
Taiwan and Southeast Asian markets advanced while New Zealand retreated.
Under the "Phase 1" trade pact due to be signed Thursday, Washington postponed planned tariff hikes and Beijing agreed to buy more American farm exports.
Details have yet to be released. Economists warn key hurdles including Beijing's insistence that Washington role back punitive tariffs on Chinese goods have yet to be resolved.
The chief American negotiator, Robert Lighthizer, said Beijing agreed to make changes to address U.S. complaints it steals or pressures companies to hand over technology. Chinese officials have yet to confirm that.
On Friday, U.S. stocks retreated from record highs following a Labor Department report employers added 145,000 jobs in December, short of the 160,000 forecast. That growth was solid enough to bolster Wall Street's view the job market is holding up and households can spend.
The S&P 500 index fell 0.3% to 3,265.35 from its record set Thursday. The Dow Jones Industrial Average briefly topped the 29,000 level for the first time but ended down 0.5%. The Nasdaq composite dropped 0.3%, to 9,178.86.
ENERGY: Benchmark U.S. crude gained 1 cent to $59.05 per barrel in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The contract lost 52 cents on Friday to close at $59.04. Brent crude, used to price international oils, retreated 6 cents to $64.92 per barrel in London. It declined 39 cents the previous session to $64.98.
CURRENCY: The dollar gained to 109.62 yen from Friday's 109.46 yen. The euro advanced to $1.1130 from $1.1123.

The power of Joomla!, like any other CMS, lies in the extensions, which add additional functionality. But like every choice you make with your website, you must choose wisely, young Joomla! jedi. I personally recommend AllVideos (by JoomlaWorks). AllVideos is more than what its name suggests, as it is a Swiss Army knife for Joomla! media embedding. You can use it to easily embed audio or video hosted on your Joomla! site (mov, mp4, mp3, etc.) or media from popular services like YouTube, Vimeo, SoundCloud, Vine, and many more.
This is where you need to pay close attention, as AllVideos ships with 3 templates: Classic, Framed, and Responsive. Simply choose the "Responsive" template for rendering fully responsive media players. Best of all, AllVideos is available for Joomla! 1.5, 2.5, and 3.x, so you can't go wrong!
For WordPress, I would recommend using Advanced Responsive Video Embedder, as it offers a number of embedding options (embeds via URL or shortcodes, thumbnails & lightbox, autostart, and video alignment, to name a few).
Basically, this method takes the URL for the media you want to embed and wraps it with inline CSS to provide a simple cut-and-paste solution. Note, using this solution requires that you use it for each embed instance, as the CSS is within the code and will not affect other embedded media.
I often recommend using EmbedResponsively.com. as the steps are quick and easy. Simply select the media source, paste the URL, and then click "Embed." It then provides a preview of the media and the embed source code for you to cut and paste.
With this solution, you must use a content editor that will allow you to enter code for the article/item, like JCE, or you can use a plugin like NoNumber's Sourcerer.
You can use some really simple CSS to ensure your hosted embedded videos render responsively. Basically, you will need to add two selectors to your stylesheet and wrap your embed iframe with a div container. In short, this will force the embedded media to automatically expand fullwidth, hence making it... drum roll please... responsive.
I almost forgot to tell you... BEWARE, as I am known for tweeting and/or emailing those who fall short of web standards. It's all in the spirit of benefiting you and your viewers, as I believe we should not let errors go unchecked. It's the digital equivalent of telling someone they have spinach in between their teeth. I say this because this very article was inspired by me noticing a non-responsive video from my friends at Bang2Joom. They have since made the video in their blog post responsive and were most appreciative of me informing them.

Some don't like it and sometimes they express their displeasure and I have to respond (I normally have the answers ready in my sites, often quite detailed and sometimes step-by-step, plus screenshots where warranted. This is difficult or impossible to do directly in the forum, so I leave link/s to RELEVANT post/s. This post is one of the way I try to respond to criticisms to show that bloggers do benefit from links.
I just want to thank you, Peter,for posting a lot of useful tips for new bloggers like me. I'll be back here a lot more to get help from you. I just want to show my appreciation for what you are doing. I even subscribe to your site, and made a link to your site in one of my posts from my site: Blogging Tips for Newbies Again, Thank you.

I think you should be paid by google, as we would be lost without your help, so many people would have just given up by now. I so appreciate your help.
I tried to research how to embed video (and just click on an image to play it) and all I could find was a bunch of technically tangled info.
But now you've made it so simple, with just a cut and paste of a few lines of code. I could care less about the 'google video' problem and will just upload all mine now to youtube.
Your help was more that exactly what I needed and it helped me solve my initial problem.
Thanx! This saved my day today. I lost already couple of days trying to get this work, with other blogger "Help" and almost gave up.

This post just saved me from a heartache this morning. I opened my blog and was shocked to find out that my side bar with all the beautiful elements it contained has gone to the bottom of my posts.

I'm glad this post solved my problem which was caused by an UNCLICKABLE link. Thanks for sharing.
