Activision and Sledgehammer have uploaded the official Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare trailer to their YouTube channel. We've included it above.
It's been a day full of teasers, leaks, and speculation. But now, it's as good as official. The next Call of Duty, developed by Sledgehammer Games, will be titled 'Advanced Warfare' and will be releasing this November 4th.
Make sure to keep an eye on our dedicated Call of Duty Advanced Warfare page for the latest news and rumors.


Fabulous walking here, with routes of different lengths and difficulty to suit most walkers. If you're lucky enough to be staying nearby, there's probably no reason to go anywhere else.
Large wooded area, very dog friendly with several different routes. Lots of parking available.
Accessible by car, there are 2 beautiful reservoirs set in the Pentland park which overlooks Edinburgh and the surrounding areas. The views are amazing.
Dog walk with a great view, sent in by Tony Webb.


The Storm Super Son!Q features the Centripetal HD Core which is the offspring of the original Centripetal Core. The core family has provided one of the most dominant shapes in the Storm line of bowling balls. The Centripetal HD Core is denser than any other Storm core so far. This density produces an RG of 2.47 which creates a very low center of gravity which allows this ball to hit the pins at just the right spot to maximize pin carry. To top off this core Storm covered this ball with the proven NRG Hybrid Reactive coverstock and is finished with a 3000 grit Abralon sanding.

Q: Edits to the question make the flag dialog disappear (even when I'm typing a custom moderator message) Edits to the question reload the question and make the flag dialog disappear, even when I'm typing a custom moderator message.
This is annoying. I had to type the same message three times just now because the first two attempts the flag dialog was automatically closed due to edits.
Related: Don't close the flag dialog when I'm in the middle of typing something in a textbox (this is about clicking outside the dialog, not having it disappear without user intervention).

There are so many fascinating stories and innovations when it comes to social media in 2019—and by "stories" we don't just mean the mixed media, disappearing content that is sweeping the digital landscape.
2019 social media trends - statisticsIn 2018, artificial intelligence (AI) and augmented reality (AR) began to take off and major catastrophes caused online hesitation—think: data breaches by Facebook, interference in American elections, and world leader dialogues on Twitter.
2019 is a year that might just be a response to all of that.
From small businesses to major corporations, every brand needs to have a social media marketing plan in 2019. Sometimes, it might even feel like every company should have their own photography staff and video production studio to keep up with the latest social trends. Yes, these things could help, but keeping your finger on the pulse concerning where your audience is and what they are now responding to is the first step.
As always, it's a matter of what you have time to do and to do well. Brand professionalism, voice, authenticity, and trustworthiness matter more than ever.
"Going live" has been huge for a couple of years now, but the authenticity and vulnerability of live video is really speaking to audiences skeptical of sales pitches and manipulation. There have been more than 3,500,000,000 live videos on Facebook since "going live" was first introduced to the platform. Over 2 billion people have watched live videos. This is a trend just getting started.
"Stories" are potentially the next stage of social media as we know it. FOMO (fear of missing out) is real with audiences online, and the mixed media presentation of Stories enables creators to craft deeper content and audiences to feel more connected with a brand. Facebook has said the Stories format "will soon replace the newsfeed as we know it." And as reported by Entrepreneur, 200 million Instagram users use Instagram Stories each month. Stories aren't just for Snapchat anymore. Savvy marketers need to be on top of this one.
Facebook, YouTube, and Instagram have emerged as the top platforms for video marketing, and audiences are responding more than ever. With the launch of long-form, vertical videos on IGTV from Instagram and continued new options for YouTube Creators, video is evolving fast.
While YouTube and Facebook are the clear leaders in the social media usage battle, Instagram has jumped ahead of the pack to be the third most popular platform with a continually expanding lead over Pinterest, Snapchat, LinkedIn, and Twitter.

Avello, Bally's provide stable for avid horse players
EDITOR'S NOTE: Bally's/Paris Las Vegas race and sports director John ÂÃ�Avello, 49, has come a long way from his childhood days in Poughkeepsie, N.Y. Avello dealt 21 at the New York City School of Gambling in 1978 before heading to Las Vegas. After working downtown at the Western ÂÃ�Hotel and The Mint, Avello landed a position at the Barbary Coast. He worked for Bob Gregorka at the Sands before joining Bally's in 1990. Avello sat down last week for a 1-on-1 interview with GamingToday staff writer Mark Mayer to discuss the state of gaming.
GT: Does it help to be Italian?
JA: Not really. At one point, it may have helped if you have some sort of connections. At one point I actually thought I had a good connection to get into the Dunes in late 70s. Dealers made tremendous money at that time. Go to see the same guy every week. High profile place. Never happened for me. Maybe not in right place at right time. It's all about juice.
GT: What about getting a job today in the industry?
JA: You can't be one-dimensional any more. They look for versatility. Now, it's not all about a specialty. Versatility is the key in dealing.
GT: Do you like being in the Race & Sports business?
JA: I love it. I have loved it since getting in the business. I remember Bob Gregorka telling me you have to go home. Just work your eight hours and get out of here. But I love what I do. I can work here 10 hours every day and be constantly busy. It's stuff that never ends and I enjoy it.
GT: What is the cutting edge of the gaming industry?
JA: The Internet. We have our own website (www.ballysraceandsports.com) which we are proud of. I don't think there are a lot of places that have their own race and sports website. It's geared more toward horse racing. Our Kentucky Derby Future Book Contest has had an amazing amount of hits.
GT: Do you think Vegas is better today?
JA: It's different. Can't say it's better one way or another. Corporations now basically have come in and own multiple properties. Used to be owned separately years ago. But, look at the properties we have now. Look at ÂÃ�Bellagio, Mirage, Paris. Would not have that if the transformation didn't happen. There's a lot of good that came out of it.
GT: What has happened with the practice of comping?
JA: With us, we have a turf club. Every dollar you wager you accumulate one point. Those points can be used to any amenity the hotel has to offer. We are pretty fair about it. Customers really like it because they know where it's at. People normally shy about asking for comps now have the opportunity to ask. For us, it has worked really well.
GT: Why does Bally's favor the race player more than the sports bettor?
JA: In race, you have a lot more to play with. It's pari-mutuel so we know where we are at as far as the house is concerned. There's a built-in percentage so we can give a portion back to the player. In sports, we go give some stuff away but it's so miniscule. What can you give away, a quarter of 1 percent?
GT: Do you make more money from race or sports?
JA: It's pretty split. In this hotel, we have a good mix of both, but we really do push race. I mean would you rather be dealing with a guaranteed 16 percent of the hold or an if-come-maybe 3 percent? (laughing). In race, you are hoping the customers win. You want them to win so much that they will come back and bet some more. A great thing for us and them. But we would never give up sports. Need them both.
GT: What separates Vegas from other gaming venues?
JA: Everything. You come in here on any event and it's a magnificent weekend. Super Bowl, March Madness, just a regular basketball weekend. Atlantic City and other places don't have race and sports books. That sets us apart.
GT: What's going to happen with the NCAA push to ban betting on college sports?
JA: I'm very unclear on that. It's out of my hands. We have the AGA (American Gaming Association) working very hard for us. There will hopefully be many more years of college betting.
GT: What about taking large bets like the Barkley wager?
JA: When it comes to huge bets like that, I call my bosses (VP of casino operations and president of hotel) to see if it's something they want to entertain. I would not take it upon myself to handle that large a wager. Everyone would be informed that I answer to. Nothing is worse than making a decision, finding out it wasn't right, and having to tell that to the person. Follow procedures, make sure everyone is agreeable and then everything will be fine. I'm sure Nick (Bogdanovich) did this at Mandalay. I believe he got permission to take the bet. It's the money I'm not sure about.
GT: What brings the most money into the sports book?
JA: NFL is the bread and butter. Sundays full capacity in book. They love it. Maybe the pro aspect of it, but people pack the place.
GT: Are parlay cards a good way for the public to bet?
JA: We do okay on parlays. People look for a big payoff. They'll put up $5 for 20 straight weeks. Out $100. Or maybe, they will bet that over 40 weeks. However, if they hit just that one card, they hit big and that's what they like.
GT: What about pro sports making it in Vegas?
JA: This is a strange town. Where I grew up, most of the people were rooting for the Knicks. It was great to go down and root for them. In this town, there is no loyalty. A lot of people are transplanted from all over. Not sure they have that loyalty toward a team here. Lots to do here. At 10 p.m. things just start happening. More to do. Jury is out on whether we can support a pro team. Also, this town won't support anything but a winner. We're fickle. I'm not sure a pro team would be good for the town, for all those reasons.
GT: Do you agree that taking the ban off in-state college wagering has had little impact?
JA: There never was any reason not to have UNLV on the board with everyone else. Yes, the lifting of the ban has made little difference. The televised games of the week get more action. Just because it's UNLV, well it's just another game on the board.
GT: How tough was September 11?
JA: Forget economy-wise. Everyone in the town went through some hard times. Emotions of people were different. I sat home night after night talking and reading about it. Just a tremendous shock.
GT: Do props on non-sports related items hurt the business?
JA: You know, I consider myself an oddsmaker. I put odds out on so much stuff. I have put odds up on a hot-dog eating contest for four years. I used to put up odds on the Boston Marathon like what the time of the race would be. I could put odds up on anything. I enjoy doing it, no matter the event. And, I think people look for me to do it. People come to Bally's and Paris wanting to know what I have on ÂÃ�Survivor? From my perspective, I don't think it cheapens the business. I am an oddsmaker.
GT: Where do you see the industry headed?
JA: Things are not too bad. There will probably be a lot of changes in the next couple of years, which could really be good. Possibly some Internet stuff. We don't know if wagering will be involved, but Internet is loaded with information. It's been hot for five years and there could be something hot down the pike that nobody sees yet. We are always looking for an opportunity to improve the business. People, though, still love coming to Vegas. You know you're going to get your money here.

The BMW X5 is brimming with technology and gadgets.
It isn't the most practical option in the segment, but it's otherwise one of the most complete offerings in the luxury SUV space.
BMW makes you spend a lot on options to get what you want, though.
BMW has long been known as a company that puts driving dynamics first. But as the market shifts away from sports sedans, the folks in Munich have had to double down on technology to best cross-country rivals Mercedes and Audi.
With the newest generation of cars and crossovers, BMW is proving they're ready for the fight. Not only do they offer cutting-edge technology, but they integrate it in a way that's intuitive and pleasant to use.
The X5 is the latest redesigned BMW to get the full suite of tech goodies, elevating the big Bimmer from a middling performer to one of the more exciting options in the class. If you can get by without a third row of seats — available in rivals like the Audi Q7, Volvo XC90 and Lexus RX — the X5 is a fantastic option. If you need that practicality, you have to step up to the brand-new X7.
We sampled a 2019 X5 xDrive40i, the basic configuration of the X5 which features a 3.0-liter inline-six engine with 335 horsepower mated to an all-wheel-drive system. Even with the base motor, our X5 had $10,835 worth of options which brought the price to $72,530.
A huge number, to be sure, but not anywhere out of line for a premium product. The BMW 530i sedan we tested in 2017 cost $2,000 more, despite having a smaller cabin, less-powerful motor and rear-wheel drive. Pretty much everything in this class can be loaded up to over $70,000, so it comes down to what you get for the price.
In the case of the X5, the list is exhaustive. It has adaptive lights with laser high beams, massively increasing your range of vision at night. A Harman Kardon surround system is on board, as is BMW's latest version of iDrive. The fantastic infotainment system not only makes short work of any navigation or multimedia function, but it also supports the gimmicky (but fun) gesture control. Rotate your finger in the air and the volume goes up, make a fist twice to go home or shoot a "v" at the center screen to mute the music.
Saying "hey BMW" will trigger the car's virtual assistant. I was able to confidently say "hey BMW, navigate to" and read out a full address without having to pause or talk slowly to accommodate the system. When the navigation started, the car displayed prompts on BMW's best-in-the-business head-up display, depicting full top-down views of approaching intersections on the windshield.
When you arrive at your destination, you'd struggle to find something so easy to park. The BMW can parallel or perpendicular park itself without any input from the driver. Lesser systems require you to modulate the brakes or shift from reverse to drive. While it carries out its wizardry, you can watch a full 3D render of the X5 on your infotainment screen as if you were standing outside the car looking at it. It's mind-bending stuff.
Luckily, the X5 carries on the tradition of BMW producing some of the smoothest powertrains in the business. The turbocharged six-cylinder has plenty of power, while the eight-speed transmissions swaps gears quickly and imperceptibly.
You also have a slew of driving modes from sport plus to adaptive. In adaptive mode the X5 will actually match its air suspension firmness and engine aggression to your driving style. In sport plus, it'll outhandle and outdrive similar SUVs from Volvo and Audi. Switch back to comfort, and it's a docile highway cruiser with precious little cabin noise and a competent driver-assistance suite for semi-autonomous driving.
The surprising athleticism of the X5 comes at a cost. Despite our tester having the optional air suspension, the ride can't match the buttery bushings of a Benz or a Lexus. It's not by any means uncomfortable, but it is far from the best-riding vehicle in the class.
It also isn't very practical. Yes, it has a massive cargo area and comfortable seating for five. But in the realm of $70,000 SUVs, that doesn't strike us as enough. The Audi Q7 and Volvo XC90 offer a lot of tech for similar prices, but do so with seven usable seats.
BMW originally planned to offer a third row of seats for the X5 in December, then pushed it back to February. Now, a spokesperson for the automaker says that high demand for the new X7 seven-seater SUV has pushed back the availability even further. As of March 1, the option is still not available.
Finally, it's great that BMW offers everything that you could ever need on the X5. It's just a bit annoying how diligent and spendy you have to be to get everything. Despite having over $10,000 of options, our tester lacked things that most luxury cars offer with standard packages. There was no heated steering wheel, no cooled seats. And even though it did have the upgraded stereo, BMW offers an even more expensive and higher-tier "diamond" stereo.
That weakens the value component of the X5, as it'd be hard to option one in a way that didn't make you feel like you were missing out.
We'll try anyway. There's no need to jump to the xDrive50i as we never found the xDrive40i in need of more power. The M Sport Design package is visually appealing, but it costs nearly $6,000 so we'll stick with the xLine. We'd jump to the Executive tier, which starts at $65,250 and brings remote start, laser lighting and a bunch of other quality-of-life improvements. Colors besides a basic white and basic black cost $550, so you probably can't avoid that. Don't pay extra to upsize the wheels, as doing so will make the ride less soft.
We'd suggest the $2,450 extended Merino leather option, as BMW's quilted-leather seats are fantastic. Active driver assistance comes bundled in a $1,700 package that's worth getting. If you want the trick 3D camera and automatic parking, grab the $700 parking assistance package.
For options, we'd add the following air suspension for $1,000, heated steering wheel and front armrests for $250 and a Harman Karon sound system for $875. With destination charges, our total comes to $72,275.
If you desperately need seven usable seats, the X5 isn't the family SUV to get. If you can get by with five, you'll be rewarded with a class-leading powertrain, astounding technology and delightful driving dynamics.
It's a lot of money, but the X5 is a lot of things to a lot of people. We highly recommend it.
* Rating is out of 5.

Q: pthread and ncurses - why doesn't this lock work? I am learning c and ncurses and wrote a simple snake game with halfdelay(1) to semi-automate it.  When I added threads it stopped working in that I couldn't get any input from the keyboard.
So I wrote a short program to try threads/ncurses and mutex locking. The code has 2 threads with their own functions (fn and fn2).  When I run it with the wmove/wprint in the respective function calls it works (well, it prints to screen!) I tried to implement mutex locking and moved the code to another function called print_to_screen() and nothing happens.
I have added if(thread_id == pthread_self()) to switch between threads but still nothing happens.  I have added a couple of commented out lines which show the 2 threads reaching the print_to_screen() function, but the code in the if loops is not running at all.
Please help me, I am at my wits end - I even tried reading usr/inc.ncurses.h and man was that ever unhelpful!  Here is the code.  If you comment out the wmove/wprint bits in the 2 functions and uncomment the print_to_screen() call you can see the difference.  The ncurses setup is from the invisible-island tutorial, if anyone knows why he has put (void) in front of his ncurses calls please let me know. TIA for any help you can give.

A: As a start:
int thread1_id, thread2_id, count, count2;

should be
int count, count2;
pthread_t thread1_id, thread2_id;

Also print_to_screen() is never called.

Weathering With You London Screening and Shinkai Q&A on December 10
posted on 2019-10-31 19:13 EDT by Andrew Osmond
Screening at BFI Southbank, tickets go on public sale on November 12
The BFI Southbank in London is listing a subtitled screening of Weathering With You on Tuesday December 10 (6 p.m.), accompanied by a Q&A with its director Makoto Shinkai. Tickets will go on public sale on November 12 at 11.30 am.
Anime Limited has already announced that it will release Weathering With You in cinemas in the UK and Ireland on January 17 2020. The film will be screened in both Japanese with subtitles and with an English dub.
GKIDS, which will distribute Weathering With You in America, describes the film:
The summer of his high school freshman year, Hodaka runs away from his remote island home to Tokyo, and quickly finds himself pushed to his financial and personal limits. The weather is unusually gloomy and rainy every day, as if to suggest his future. He lives his days in isolation, but finally finds work as a writer for a mysterious occult magazine. Then one day, Hodaka meets Hina on a busy street corner. This bright and strongwilled girl possesses a strange and wonderful ability: the power to stop the rain and clear the sky...
Shinkai is credited with the original work, and also directed and wrote the film's scripts for CoMix Wave Films. Masayoshi Tanaka (your name., anohana, The Anthem of the Heart) designed the characters, Atsushi Tamura (The Cat Returns, Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin) was the animation director, and Hiroshi Takiguchi (The Garden of Words, Ajin) was the art director. Story Inc. is credited as producer, and TOHO distributes the film. RADWIMPS' Yōjirō Noda composed five vocal theme songs for the film, and the group also provided 27 background music songs for the film. Tōko Miura sang RADWIMPS' "Grand Escape (Movie edit) feat. Toko Miura" and "Shukusai (Movie edit) feat. Toko Miura" theme songs for the film.
GKIDS' trailer for Weathering With You is below.

I've spent quite a few hours in the past week watching baseball – and not just because my son is playing on a summer team.
I've been covering some of the activities of the USA-Cuba Goodwill Tour, and when I haven't been in attendance, I've been following them through the stories that Jimmy Altman on FOX 61 has done, or through the photos that the parents of Team USA and host families have posted on Facebook.
It was pretty cool to interview Luis Tiant and Bill "Spaceman" Lee, too.
I'm sad to say that I don't know more than a few words of Spanish, but I have managed to befriend several of the group who speak English. I have especially enjoyed getting to know Cuban translator Reynaldo Cruz Diaz – who works at as a journalist, photographer, and webmaster in Holguin. His website (Universo Béisbol) is focused on baseball, but other than that we have pretty similar jobs.
I've spoken with many of the families who are hosting the Cuban kids, and from what I have heard the trip has been a resounding success from a cultural exchange perspective. It will be interesting to hear their final reflections, but from some of what I have been told the Cuban teens have been surprised at some American habits (for example driving rather than walking to the grocery store when it's a half mile away), have embraced video games, have little need for air conditioning, and most don't like pasta.
Kudos to Tim Brennan and everyone else who has been involved in making the goodwill tour a reality. This is big. It has been a first for U.S.-Cuban diplomacy, and it's been happening right here in West Hartford.

Here's this week's Buzz:
Savoy Pizzeria won't open its restaurant on LaSalle Road until September, but Chef Dante Cistulli is ready to take the pizza on the road with this wood-fired pizza oven. Courtesy of Savoy Pizzeria
Savoy Pizzeria Napoletana will probably not be ready to open its doors at 32 LaSalle Rd. until September, but residents can get a taste of their menu courtesy of the Savoy Road Show. Chef Dante Cistulli will prepare his specially-crafted pizzas in the pizza trailer – a giant wood- burning, copper-clad (and gorgeous, if you can use that word to describe an oven!) pizza oven on a trailer. The road show is available for hire, and will also appear in a special sneak peek event – Max Chef to Farm's "Tomato Celebration" at Rosedale Farms on Friday, Aug. 5. Click here for information about the event. For more information about the road show, including the a available menu, click here.
The Blue Back Square space which will soon be home to Cook and the Bear may not look like much yet, but construction is moving along, co-owner Tyler Anderson said. "We were shooting for mid-August but now we're shooting for September," he said about the opening, delayed somewhat because of some changes in plans to equip the kitchen and the wait for a wood-burning oven that's coming from Spain. Chef Ed Jones III has started working at the Monday Cook and the Bear BBQ event at Millwright's and is finalizing the menu for the restaurant. "We're testing out items for the opening menu," Anderson said, and some of that work will be done in a test kitchen in Miami that has the same type of equipment from Spain that will be installed in the West Hartford restaurant. Cook and the Bear will also be one of the participating restaurants at Taste of Blue Back Square and The Center, and will be serving some highlights from the future menu. "We're getting very excited. I'm very antsy to get it open," Anderson said. He also said that once it opens, the Cook and the Bear will have a "mug club." Patrons will be able to purchase a special beer mug which they can bring back to be filled at a discount. Mug club members will also be able to learn which beers are on tap for the night two hours before the opening.

There's even more restaurant news to share! Hot Oven Pizza & Panini officially opened Friday in the space formerly occupied by East West Bistro (and Pho Vietnam Restaurant before that) at 264 Park Rd. The restaurant is owned by Alex Saleem and managed by Amen Nassir, two West Hartford residents who also own New York Deli & More on Trumbull Street in Hartford. Nassir said that he and Saleem are going out of their way to become part of the Park Road community, and on Thursday, before they were officially open, they went up and down the street handing out slices of pizza to their neighbors. Anyone who came in got a free slice as well. Hot Oven Pizza & Panini serves thin-crust pizza with a wide variety of topping options, salads, grinders/wraps, and, of course, panini. Nassir said they had been looking for the right space to open up in West Hartford for a while, and are really excited about the location which offers free parking – including at a lot diagonally across the street. Delivery will be up and running in a month or so. Nassir said they also look forward to getting involved with community fundraisers.

How are cherry bombs made?

Are cherry bombs still made?
Cherry Bombs, Silver Salutes, and M-80's have been banned by Federal Law since 1966 because of the large amounts of explosive composition they contain.

By Jon Ward The Washington Times - September 25, 2008, 10:38AM
There are signals that when congressional leaders and the two presidential candidates come to the White House this afternoon, an agreement on the administration's $700 billion rescue plan will have been reached.
But there is equally strong pushback from the McCain campaign that such talk is pure political posturing.
Negotiators began meeting on Capitol Hill at 10 a.m., and yesterday evening a well-placed Democratic aide said that they planned this morning to "draft a final bipartisan bill to be passed and signed into law."
"Not too many unresolved issues remain," the aide said.
Mr. Bush also made clear in his nationally televised speech to the nation last night that he was willing to limit pay packages for executives whose firms benefited from the bailout, which had been a sticking point.
And Tucker Bounds, a spokesman for Republican presidential nominee John McCain, said talk of a deal being reached was bluster.
"There has been no official announcement of any deal," he said.
Mr. McCain maintained in his speech to the Clinton Global Initiative this morning what he said yesterday: "It has become clear that no consensus has developed to support the Administration's proposal to meet the crisis."
"I do not believe that the plan on the table will pass as it currently stands, and we are running out of time," he said, according to prepared remarks.
Barack Obama's campaign sent out an e-mail to reporters after his speech questioning the Republican's claim, citing press reports saying a deal was near.
Some in the McCain camp say Democrats are running from their statements Tuesday that Mr. McCain had to support the rescue plan or else they would not. Stephen Dinan and Christina Bellantoni's piece today explains how Mr. McCain called their bluff.
What it all amounts to is that if and when a deal is reached, especially if it's today, Mr. Obama and the Democrats will say there was a deal before Mr. McCain suspended his campaign and came back to Washington to push for an agreement.
Mr. McCain, meanwhile, will say there was no deal until he came back to help broker one.

Facts about the Czech Republic
UNESCO Sites – Part 5 Olomouc
photo: (czechtourism.com)
The city of Olomouc is a significant metropolis in the Moravian part of the Czech Republic. Due to its strategic location, ancient university and long traditions of religion, culture and crafts, it became the logical capital of Moravia that has attracted artists, intellectuals and traders throughout the centuries. It is no surprise that we can find yet another monument included on the UNESCO World Heritage Site List – the Holy Trinity Column – in Olomouc.
Holy Trinity Column in Olomouc
The monument was built from 1716 to 1754 to celebrate the end of the plague epidemics in Olomouc. The architects found inspiration for the column at the Piazza Maria Maggiore in Rome, which was erected in 1614. The construction was influenced by the wave of the Baroque plague, Marian and honorary columns that spread after the Council of Trent. The originator, author and patron of this particular column was the architect Václav Render.
After his death, many other local artists collaborated on the construction of the column. The most significant of them was the sculptor Ondřej Zahner, who created 21 above-life size statues from limestone. However, he did not live to see the completed monument either, as he died in 1752. The sculptures were finally consecrated in 1754 in attendance of Empress Maria Therese and her husband, Francis Stephen I, Duke of Lorraine. In 1995, the monument, the Marian Column and the Baroque fountains were proclaimed a national cultural monument and added to the UNESCO World Heritage Site List in 2000 as one of the most significant monuments of the Baroque Style in Central Europe.
The column is 35 meters high and is the highest sculptural group in the Czech Republic. The sculptures include 18 saints, 12 figures of angels carrying light and 6 reliefs with half-bodies of Apostles. The sculptural group of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary is placed in the central part of the column. Two sculptural groups of the Holy Trinity glow from the top of the column. The monument also includes a small chapel.
The Holy Trinity Column is a unique monument that combines the triumphant motives of celebrating the church and religion. The artists created a monument unique for its size and the complexity of the sculpture's decorations that have inspired many future generations.

Hundreds gather at memorial for Shippensburg man killed in Las Vegas shooting
Becky Metrick
SHIPPENSBURG - With heartfelt stories, songs, and a final "WE ARE," friends, family and loved ones said goodbye Friday night to Bill Wolfe Jr.
The Shippensburg man, 42, was one of 58 people killed during the mass shooting at an outdoor music festival in Las Vegas on Oct. 1. He was attending the concert with his wife, celebrating their 20th anniversary.

More:Las Vegas shooting: Family of Shippensburg man killed attend prayer vigil
Wolfe - also a father, engineer, and youth wrestling and baseball coach - was loved by his community, as shown by the hundreds that filled Shippensburg University's H. Ric Luhrs Performing Arts Center for the public memorial. A private funeral was held earlier in the week.
Described as a passionate, smart, kind and honest man, five of his loved ones shared stories about the role Wolfe played in their lives, and the memories they will cherish forever.
One friend brought up how Wolfe took such care of everything in his life, even his grandfather's tent that was old before Wolfe even got it. But Wolfe continued to cherish and take care of it, loving the history it held. His family still has the tent to this day.
Two of Wolfe's friends, in his life for 30 or more years, talked about how patient he was with them, helping them with their school work when they were studying the same things and feeling completely lost.
They thanked him for his commitment to their friendships and their children, and told his sons in the front row that there would be an "army" of people ready to help them whenever they need.
Former employer Carl Bert, of Carl Bert and Associates of Shippensburg, said when Wolfe came to him, telling him he should work for the firm, Bert realized Wolfe was the answer to the company's prayers. Wolfe had worked as a professional engineer there.
Other friends reminisced on Wolfe's love of country music. Brother-in-law Joseph Finkey said he had been searching for a sign when he heard Hank Williams Jr., come across the radio Friday morning, and he knew that was it.
Just before some final prayers, the mourners were told to hold onto each other, their loved ones, and sing together to Garth Brooks' classic "Friends in Low Places."
Wolfe's family are to make their first public comments on Monday.
Anyone who would like to donate to the Wolfe family can either donate online at gofundme.com/shipwrestlingwolfefamily or by sending a check to the Bill Wolfe Children's Fund, c/o Members 1st PO Box 2110, Mechanicsburg, PA, 17055.
Anyone wishing to leave a note of encouragement for the Wolfe family, or share a memory of him is encouraged to email billwolfememorial74@yahoo.com

Nurse denied marathon world record — because she wasn't wearing a skirt
May 6, 2019 Nurse denied marathon world record -- because she wasn't wearing a skirt
After a British nurse was denied a world record because she didn't run the London Marathon in a skirt, other nurses took to social media to prove that modern-day nurses don't wear skirts anymore but scrubs and trousers.
Jessica Anderson who works at the Royal London Hospital wanted to beat the world record and be the fastest woman to complete the marathon dressed as a nurse.
And she did, after finishing in 3.08:22, she technically beat the previous record of 3:08:54 held by Sarah Dudgeon. But not for Guinness World Records (GWR) who told Anderson her time was invalid because she wore trousers instead of a skirt, reported PA.
According to GWR rules, a nurse's uniform consists of a blue or white dress, a pinafore apron, and a traditional nurse's cap.
GWR added that Anderson's scrubs were too similar to the official requirements for a doctor's uniform.
Anderson told Runner's World that she was "taken aback" when she read the rejection letter from GWR.
"I get that it's supposed to be a fun thing but their definition is just so outdated. Some of the nurses I work with do wear dresses but mostly we wear scrubs or a tunic and trousers. I've certainly never seen a male nurse wearing a dress to work," she said.
When she asked them to reconsider, they said no, she added.
"I'm sure Guinness World Records don't intend to cause offence but it would be nice if they decided to revise their criteria instead of reinforcing old gender stereotypes."..Continue Reading

Another tip for creative folks who need to stay inspired: become a fan of Steam Powered Giraffe. NAO.
Working hard to get your novel, your new business, any of your dreams off the ground is exhausting. There are many times when you doubt yourself and you want to give up. And sadly, a lot of us, for various reasons, find that we have to be practical and let go of a project that isn't working. But don't ever forget, there's always something else you can try.
My favorite band, Steam Powered Giraffe, made the great journey from being an improv group busking in San Diego, to making national, and then international tours to share their quirky music and ingeniously executed rock opera robot mime act for a growing fanbase. Sound strange? Well, it is wonderfully strange when you let someone's unique vision find a way into your heart. When an artist presses on, no matter what anyone else says, evolves and adapts to adversity until finally, strangers can see into their mesmerizing world… it's like tasting wabi-sabi. In your mouth. What a brilliant sensation.
By the way, that's a picture of me cosplaying as Rabbit from SPG in a last minute Halloween costume. Pretty good, considering how elaborate her adorable costume is and how little time I had… And those handsome steampunked strangers are people I hope I converted into SPG fans-fo-life. We'll see!
So go on and take a bite. (Cue Rabbit's chomping down sound-effect.) Watch the music video A Way Into Your Heart, become a fan like me, and check out more links below to some of SPG's best and funniest work. I've been a fan for months, so don't worry, I've hunted up the best of the best. I had to do it. To be perfectly honest, I feel like my life, as a creative writer and as person, has changed since I found SPG's positive music.
One more thing… this will sound strange, less strange if you consider that I am a huge SPG fangirl, but I believe that every creative person out there should become a fan of this band and join them on their journey. Not only is Steam Powered Giraffe due to blow a hole into the mainstream music scene any day now, because everyone in their act has the collective voice acting, singing, visionary, performance and technological prowess to rival any major celebrity you can think of, but their self-promotion strategies are hella shrewd.
Sure, it doesn't make sense for every musical act out there to have a fictional backstory, but that SPG knew their fanbase of anime watching, DeviantArt making, video game playing, fantasy reading fans would love precisely this kind of interactive experience (and that SPG may have pursued this instinctively on their own, just for love of their craft) shows they are well-positioned for mastery of their musical genre.
I could go on about how spectacular this band is, and I will, in a future blog post—but let's get to the yummy links I promised.
As David Michael Bennett (The Spine), Sam Luke (Hatchworth) and Isabella Bunny Bennett (Rabbit) alluded to in their insane Halloween episode, The Bennettarium podcast is like an aquarium where creativity is fostered into something hilariously epic. This silly weekly podcast is so very much fun and I always try to listen while I'm working. They livestream on Sunday afternoons, and I believe you can even watch them too, if you're an Engineer-eteer.
Over the last few months following this podcast, I've been able to stay on the cutting edge of what the best geeky TV shows and things are out there, random stuff about piercings 🙂 , and learned a lot more about all the video games I wish I could play, including, what else but… virtual reality games. By the way, they have a new band member since Sam Luke moved on to pursue his own musical & creative dreams: the talented Bryan Barbarin (Zero).
Hells-to-the-yeah! Their music was even featured in a popular video game that you could download and play to-dizzay if you so desired.
While writing this post, I noticed they have music in yet another video game… and now I suspect there may be a few other games out there. I'll let you know if I find more.
SPG seems to make a point of keeping their YouTube presence healthy, so there's something tantalizing every few weeks, it seems, if not more frequently than that. As you watch, keep in mind that (I think) they do all of the audio and visuals that you see, on their own. Just to give you an idea of how freakishly talented this act is. They really are making this thang happen for thems-selves.
Over 6 million views on YouTube. This music video done years ago still shows the raw performance power of Steam Powered Giraffe.
Never was a steampunk themed song more catchy. I can just feel myself in the lounge of an airship, sipping Earl Grey and nodding along.
No music video I can find for this one, but it is hands down my favorite SPG song because it is the cutest, shmutest song in the universe! I can see Mark Twain rocking out to this one.
I'm not the best at guessing musical genres, but I'm going to give this one a shot—it feels like a 70s rock ballad to me. The shot of their faces against the black background evokes Bohemian Rhapsody.
I have a lot of praise for this video for being so unifying, especially with its empowering and positive messages from the transgender community.
It sounds like a lot, a lot, of people have little crushes on The Spine and his incredible voice. All the current and past members of the band have insanely awesome voices, but the skill is very apparent here.
I can see the entire cast of The Big Bang Theory sitting on that couch with Sheldon leading them in, "I'll keep you moving like a soooliton, a soooliton, a sooolitooooon…" So, why hasn't this happened yet?? Fire Fire would fit well on that show, too. I should so write Sheldon a letter!
Now you know why I quoted this song on the front page of the blog for months. (And then brought it back.) Man, those were good times.
Yes. They made a movie. That I binge-watched for hours, breathless with laughter. After that was over, I was very sad they didn't have their own television show, so I could binge-watch that for even more hours.
And so much more yummy, giraffey goodness… there's far too much for me to list here in this blog post.
Time for you to sign up and become an Engineer-eteer. Normally, I'm really frugal, but now I'm gonna do it!!

Dilse reviews...
Bareilly Ki Barfi review: " As sweet as barfi!!!"
Last couple of days has been rather eventful with the Supreme Court passing the judgement that triple talaq is illegal, the Solar eclipse over the US & Nadal back to World No.1. Even I was quite busy with work commitments that I didnt quite find the time to pen down my thoughts about 'Bareilly ki Barfi". In normal circumstances, I wouldnt have bothered to write the review since it's been in the theatres for more than half a week. But I would have to admit, I was pretty entertained by it & as it doesnt have huge stars there is a good chance that many of my friends would have skipped or even be unaware about it. Hence I felt I should give you my opinion as to why it is worth a try.
As the title indicates, the story unfolds in the bustling small town of Bareilly where Bitti Sharma (Kriti Sanon), a strong opinionated free spirited girl lived who was quite unlike other girls in the area. So much so, her mother (Seema Bhargava) constantly worried about the prospects of her daughter getting married off in the traditional manner. On the other hand, her father (Pankaj Tripathi), who ran a sweet shop gave his approval to all her crazy antics. None of the prospective grooms gave her the impression that they were ready to embrace her for the person that she was, until she stumbled across a novel called "Bareilly ki Barfi". Incidentally, the girl mentioned in the book had her same traits which made her decide to meet the author Pritam Vidrohi (Rajkkumar Rao). But all her efforts to locate him drew blank & therefore she sought the help of Chirag Dubey (Ayushmann Khurana), the publisher of the book who was said to know about his whereabouts. However, she was oblivious of the fact that Chirag was indeed the author. So why was Pritam being credited as the author???
The creator of this hilarious rom com is Aswiny Iyer Tiwari, who had made an impressive debut with "Nil Battey Sannata" that was critically acclaimed far & wide. She was aided in her task by her husband Nitesh Tiwari (of "Dangal" fame) who along with Shreyas Jain & Rajat Nonia had penned the script. It was sprinkled with humorous dialogues & situational comedy which was both realistic and in sync with the region where the story is based.Personally speaking, I absolutely loved the speech in the climax which kinda reminded me of Aamir in "Dil Chahta Hai". There are hardly much twists & turns making it fairly predictable.All the personnel involved in the technical aspects have done their jobs well.
Frankly, I never thought Kriti Sanon would be able to do justice to the feisty character of Bitti as it seemed like a role which was up Kangana's alley. But she aced it in style along with Ayushmann who portrayed the forlorn lover as well as the grey shades in Chirag convincingly. But the star of the show is undoubtedly Rajkkumar Rao who was brilliant in the two avatars that he appeared. Equal praise needs to be vested upon Pankaj Tripahi, Seema Bhargava & Rohit Choudhary who have done utmost justice to their roles & also to Javed Akhtar's narration which made the viewing experience all the more enjoyable.
Verdict: Undoubtedly one of the finest rom coms to have come out from Bollywood. Many a time, good movies do get overlooked due to the lack of star power. Hopefully this doesnt turn out to be one & therefore in case, you guys havent watched it; do check it out!!!

2015 has been Chris Brown's year to turn a new leaf.
The R&B singer and father of 1-year-old Royalty is seen covering the January 2016 issue of VIBE for the first time in 6 years. Inside the issue, Breezy holds nothing back and touches on his domestic violence case with Rihanna, his stint in rehab, and his rocky road to redemption.
He also admits to being pretty crazy at times, despite his attempts at staying zen. "See now, the zen gets confused when a motherf**ker might cuss somebody out. Nah, I'm 100-percent passionate, and at ease with the fact that I might be a little bit crazy," he explains.

Travelers have long desired low-cost flights connecting Europe and the U.S. One emerging European carrier is making this dream a reality—and a range of travel industry forces don't like it one bit.
There may come a day when theme park companies see a backlash among vacationers, who refuse to pay ever-high admissions prices. But that day hasn't come yet.
Airlines say that they must charge passengers baggage fees because more checked luggage means more costs incurred by the carrier. But how much extra jet fuel is burned due to luggage? Maybe $2 per bag tops.
United Airlines announced it is dropping 60% of departures in Cleveland, which was once a major hub for Continental—back before Continental merged with United.

21.04 National Tea / Banana Day
Text: Ingrid K. Bjørnaali During the stay at the Kunstnernes Hus, which day of the ceremony impressed you the most?
National Tea / Banana day!
What happened on that day? What were you doing?
That day I was supposed to do something else for some deadline I can't remember, but then got completely immersed in building a tea hut/temple/cave together with Mari and Montse. Someone taped the banana peels from the breakfast to the solar cell powered rotating "money tree" sculpture Eirik had put up earlier. We pushed the tree into the low hanging textile roof- tea cave together with us and had a tea ceremony inside. The careful selection of teas we drank was accompanied with facts and myths and bodily movements made quite intuitively and collectively during the ceremony. A tea hut where we made our own truths. The hut was used solely for this one ceremony.
If you could take away one thing from The Great Indoors, what would it be? It could be an object, healing, action, moment, or experience, etc.
One thing I treasure from The Great Indoors is the healing feeling of spontaneous collaborational efforts together with such an ambitious group of people, working towards a non-ambitious goal that demanded no elaborate purpose or plan.

During the stay at the Kunstnernes Hus, which day of the ceremony impressed you the most?
The Tea and Banana Day
Some of us made different dishes with banana as the main ingredient. We had tea together in a temporary made tent. We tried several different kinds of tea. And I got a bit "drunk" from drinking some much tea.
It would be the idea of the collective healing. And I think I am already taking it with me. During the residency, many of us hadn't really felt the healing. Instead, we felt stressed from organizing so many different activities. But for me, I realized that this sense of healing is not a rapid nor a short-term thing. It comes slowly afterwards. Everytime I think about what we did, I am always so happy and fulfilled with all the memories. I'm glad that we did not just make a standard graduation show with our individual projects competing to be the star of the year. Instead, we took care of each other. This really has changed my mindset a lot to think about my future as an artist and how to work within the art filed, especially during that period that we just graduated and had to applied to a lot of applications for grants and studios, in which we kind of had to compete, since the chances were limited. Artists have always been taking the role of the one who gives in the theatrical binary of art. But what is left for the artists themselves after all the giving? I think it was nice to address this in the residency.
Text: Montserrat Llampallas
The first thing that comes to me as a special moment within The Great Indoors is the tea ceremony, from building the little hut with bends and crooks and the available floating fabrics, to preparing and inventing ways to have ceremony. Using one corner of the house, half squished next to one another I imagine the rest of the house quiet now, waiting for a moment. I think I appreciate so much the tenderness of building with so much care towards something small and in a way simple and so intimately shared, sitting in a circle drinking tea, but also drinking the invention of stories and the gestures and the laughs. Some kind of innocence in all the moment (also like drawing birds!) that seems unapproachable sometimes, hard to allow oneself to it.

On August 5, 2009, Robert Khuzami, Director of Enforcement of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), announced changes and new initiatives that the Enforcement Division will implement in an effort to streamline SEC procedures and accelerate the SEC's ability to identify, pursue and resolve cases. The Enforcement Division underwent a "rigorous self-assessment" during Mr. Khuzami's first 100 days as director, resulting in new initiatives that reflect the most sweeping changes in the operation of the Enforcement Division in decades, and focus on speed, less supervision, and greater incentives to cooperate. The old rules for defending targets of SEC investigations will need to be reevaluated in light of these sweeping changes, each of which is discussed below.
Mr. Khuzami introduced five new Enforcement Division units, each dedicated to a specialized and complex area of securities law. Each unit will be led by a unit chief and staffed by people around the country in the areas described below.
Asset Management. This unit will focus on investment advisers, investment companies, hedge funds, and private equity funds. The unit will work together with the Office of Compliance Inspections and Examinations and focus on a range of areas including disclosure, valuation, portfolio performance, transactions with affiliates, due diligence and diversification, misappropriation, and conflicts of interest.
Market Abuse. This unit will focus on preventing market abuses and complex manipulation schemes by institutional traders, market professionals and others. The unit will build analytical tools to target suspicious activity by looking at activity across markets, including equities, debt securities and derivatives, and across different corporate announcements and market events.
Structured and New Products. This unit will focus on complex derivatives, including credit default swaps, collateralized debt obligations, and new financial products as they develop.
Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. This unit will focus on new approaches to identifying violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. The unit will take a more global approach to these violations by working with both U.S. and foreign investigators to identify and pursue potential violations.
Municipal Securities and Public Pensions. This unit will focus on potential abuses in municipal securities, including offering and disclosure issues, tax and arbitrage activity, unfunded or underfunded liabilities, and "pay to play" schemes.
It is notable that there are no new units dedicated to financial fraud or broker-dealer sales practice abuses. These areas have traditionally been especially active during recessions and have been among the most common enforcement actions. These areas are also among the more complex types of SEC enforcement actions, and thus would seem suited to the specialization concept.
The focus on municipal securities and public pension plans reflects a relatively new focus of attention for the SEC. It would appear that these areas will receive far more attention than they have received in the past.
Delegating More Authority to Local Senior Officers: The SEC issued an order giving the division director authority to issue formal orders of investigation, and the Director in turn has delegated this authority to senior officers throughout the Division. According to Mr. Khuzami, "[t]his means that if defense counsel resist the voluntary production of documents or witnesses, or fail to be complete and timely in responses or engage in dilatory tactics, there will very likely [be] a subpoena on your desk the next morning." Similarly, the requirement that a deputy director approve all routine case decisions has been repealed and, in its place, supervisory powers have been delegated to senior officers located throughout the country. These changes provide greater authority to senior officers in local offices, including subpoena power, the power to enter into routine settlement negotiations, the power to make Wells calls, and the power to open investigations.
Tolling Agreements: The division director must now approve all tolling agreements. Mr. Khuzami indicated that he would seldom approve such agreements.
Mr. Khuzami announced the creation of an office that will be dedicated to collecting, processing, monitoring, and responding to the numerous complaints, tips and referrals the division receives.
the possible use of deferred prosecution agreements in which the SEC would agree to forego enforcement actions against individuals or entities in exchange for cooperation, waivers of statutes of limitations, and compliance with certain undertakings.
pursuing naked short sale rule violations.
The old rules for defending targets of SEC investigations will need to be reevaluated in light of the sweeping changes at the Division of Enforcement. At a minimum, counsel defending a client that wants to cooperate will need to pursue the new protections available to a cooperating witness and will need to be vigilant to avoid being accused of failure to cooperate. Counsel seeking to advocate a client's case will have less time and few opportunities for such advocacy, and thus will need to be more creative in asserting positions.
The creation of specialized units has traditionally been resisted at the SEC because, prior to the creation of the Division of Enforcement in the early 1970s, the enforcement function operated within each of the main regulatory divisions of the SEC—Corporation Finance, Trading and Markets, and Investment Management. Although Mr. Khuzami does not appear to be seeking a return to that structure, the SEC's lack of experience with specialized units in the Division of Enforcement makes it difficult to assess the impact of this change. There does seem to be an institutionalization, through the creation of these units, of certain current enforcement priorities, particularly directed at new and complex products and trading practices. In the past, enforcement priorities have tended to last only a few months or, at most, a couple of years; a structure that perpetuates enforcement priorities would reflect a major shift in SEC practice.
Finally, new leadership is emerging throughout the Division of Enforcement. Their styles and priorities will shape the division's work and defense counsel's advocacy in ways that are still emerging.

Health Website Clarifies It's Not Replacing 'Vagina' With 'Front Hole' Following Conservative Backlash
Nico Lang
Nico Lang is a staff writer for INTO, covering news, politics, and global LGBTQ issues.
One of the nation's largest health websites released a statement saying it's not erasing the term "vagina" following the backlash to an LGBTQ-inclusive safe sex manual.
Released in July, Healthline's "LGBTQIA Safe Sex Guide" uses the term "front hole" interchangeably with the more widely accepted term for female genitalia. The manual claims the choice is intended to recognize that "many individuals don't see body parts as having a gender."
"For the purposes of this guide, we've chosen to include alternative words for readers to use for their genitals," states the guide, which was developed in conjunction with GLSEN and Advocates for Youth. "For example, some trans men choose to use the words 'front hole' or 'internal genital' instead of 'νagina.' Alternatively, some trans women may say 'strapless' or 'girl dick' for penis."
Healthline claimed the verbiage is "meant for one-on-one communication with trusted persons, such as your doctor or partner, not for broad discussion."
But since debuting last month, the manual spawned virulent right-wing backlash on the internet. Nearly every major conservative outlet — including The Blaze, The Christian Post, Daily Caller, Daily Wire, and Infowars — decried the inclusion of "front hole" as an example of liberalism run amok.
Red State referred to the handbook as "banal drivel one expects when reading a manual for deviant sex."
"The inclusion of this kind of nonsense in what is ostensibly a 'safe sex' guide on a mainstream medical information website virtually ensures that this terminology will end up being taught to your child in elementary and middle school," mononymic contributor "Streiff" claimed in an Aug. 21 post. "Deviancy in not only being mainstreamed and normalized, a medical vocabulary is being constructed to bolster its legitimacy."
"We normals are now the frog in the pot of water that has been slowly heating since the 1960s and is now reaching a boil," he added.
Lifesite News claimed the guide is just the latest attack by LGBTQ activists in an "incessant war on biology, language, and common sense that trans activists are waging in academia, the media, and the political arena."
"Some days, it seems as if the transgender movement is actually trying to sound as unreasonable as humanly possible to ordinary people — that is, the sort of people who live their lives without once being offended at transphobic statements such as 'only women can get pregnant,'" said writer Jonathan Van Maren.
Gateway Pundit, a fake news site run by gay conservative Jim Hoft, further reported that Healthline — which counts more than 85 million readers a month — would be exclusively using "front hole" in its future coverage.
"[S]o that some nutcase who identifies as a teapot or a rake will feel included," Holt concluded.
In a statement released Tuesday, Healthline directly refuted the Gateway Pundit's allegations that the word "vagina" would effectively be wiped from the site's coverage, saying they are "simply not true."
"As one of the world's leading health websites, we place a huge emphasis on standards of accuracy, integrity, and balance," the company claimed in a statement called "We're Not Renaming the Vagina." "Every article we publish undergoes a rigorous editorial process and extensive medical review."
Healthline clarified that both terms are used throughout the manual: "front hole" was included 16 times and "vagina" 17 times.
"'Front hole' is one of the numerous, accepted terms for geηitalia we use specifically for certain members of the trans community who identify with it," the company added. "In no instance in this guide are we saying we want to replace the word νagina."
Advocates for Youth added that the terminology highlights the experiences of gender diverse individuals.
"Healthline crafted their pamphlet to be inclusive of all types of bodies and all people," claimed its president, Debra Hauser. "They included terms used by some in the transgender community as well as medical terms."
"Sex Ed is rarely able to be this inclusive, and we applaud Healthline for creating such a valuable resource," she continued in a statement. "Representation matters, and having words that reflect how each of us describes our body parts is crucial to lifelong health and well being."
The language, which is consistent with terminology used by Fenway Health, National Institutes of Health, and Whitman-Walker, was recommended in a November 2017 article by the BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth journal.
Following conversations with 10 transgender men about their experiences with medical providers, authors Alexis Hoffkling, Juno Obedin-Maliver, and Jae Sevelius recommended that clinicians use "the language patients use to describe their reproductive organs and bodies" in conversations with trans clients.
"There is a long history of transgender people facing abuse, objectification, and neglect both within and beyond health care settings," the authors claim. "This may frame your encounters."
Thus, terms like "front hole" are intended to lessen the trauma trans people may experience around their own bodies and the harm they may encounter when discussing their bodies with health providers or partners. Because transgender men do not identify as women, gendered words like "vagina" may feel specific to womanhood and, thus, threaten to erase their own experiences as men.
The recent embrace of gender-inclusive language in health settings is intended to lessen the stigmatization and outright discrimination many trans people face when accessing health care.
In a survey from the National Center for Trans Equality and the Task Force, nearly one in five trans people (or 19 percent) say they have been refused care because of their gender identity. Twenty-eight percent of respondents claim to have postponed going to the doctor in fear of harassment, mistreatment, or abuse.
To combat these realities, the British Medical Association (BMA) released guidance in 2017 advising medical professionals to refer to "pregnant people" instead of "mothers" when treating patients.
