Ebbe Munck (1905-1974) est un journaliste et explorateur, résistant, puis diplomate et écrivain danois.

Biographie
Durant la fin des années 1920 et les années 30, il a participé à plusieurs expéditions d'exploration au Groenland, notamment avec Charcot, en 1926 et a été correspondant de guerre de journaux de Copenhague. Plus précisément pour le Berlingske Tidende, il est à Berlin en 1929-1931, puis à Londres entre 1931 et 1935, puis en Espagne, en 1936 durant la guerre civile ; ensuite il couvre la guerre en Finlande, en 1939-1940, puis 1941-1942. A cette occasion, il est posté à Stockholm.

Dès l'invasion du Danemark par l'Allemagne nazie (avril 1940), sous couvert de son poste de correspondant de presse, il devient un intermédiaire entre les services de renseignement militaire danois et anglais. A ce titre, il participe à l'organisation de la résistance danoise et à de nombreuses négociations entre les autorités politiques et militaires anglaises, suédoises et le gouvernement clandestin danois, après la rupture de 1943. Des péripéties imprévues l'amènent notamment à assister à la reddition des forces allemandes d'occupation à Oslo le 8 mai 1945. En 1946, il est rédacteur en chef du Dagbladet Information et demeure chef du service de politique étrangère du B.T., jusqu'en 1946.

Après guerre il occupe un poste d'attaché de presse à l'ambassade danoise de Londres (1947) puis il est conseiller d'ambassade à Helsinki ; enfin, il devient ambassadeur du Danemark en Thaïlande, entre 1959 et 1967. Ses convictions politiques et son patriotisme lui font jouer un rôle central anticommuniste / antisoviétique après guerre. Ses mémoires d'alors montrent que ses fonctions dans la résistance danoise l'ont préparé à ce rôle où ses intérêts de classe rejoignaient les intérêts géopolitiques de son pays. Après le péril germanique, le péril soviétique, Ebbe Munck est demeuré un résistant.

Il est l'auteur de plusieurs livres de mémoires dont l'un a été traduit en français en 1970. Cet ouvrage, qui retrace de nombreuses négociations diplomatiques montre la problématique d'État du Danemark dans la guerre : État neutre envahi par son voisin et à sa merci ; bénéficiant jusqu'à un certain point de sa bienveillance, une bonne partie de la population sympathisant avec les alliés anglo-saxons, tandis qu'un petit nombre s'engageait dans une collaboration totale, cherchant à ménager ses intérêts nationaux au-delà de la victoire des alliés et notamment face à l'Union Soviétique qui allait reprendre l'île danoise de Bornholm aux nazis.

Il décrit aussi les conditions de l'évasion de Niels Bohr en Suède, puis son exfiltration vers Londres, dans la soute à bombe d'un avion décollé de Bromma. On croise dans son récit de nombreux résistants danois, ainsi que Willy Brandt, alors réfugié en Suède mais en rapport avec la résistance danoise. Munck raconte comment le renseignement britannique a eu des documents significatifs sur les expériences allemandes de Peenemunde(V1).

ABC: selective journalism at its finest
The ABC has become synonymous with "fake news" to the extent that The Australian is reporting on how the ABC… Isn't reporting.
According to The Australian, here's a sample of things the ABC refuses to acknowledge:
China is building coal-fired power stations like there is no tomorrow – adding a whopping 148 gigawatts of pure coal annually. The Chinese are getting abundant, cheap and reliable electricity while Aussies get intermittent, expensive and unreliable renewables.
There are massive problems with the reliability and storage of renewable energy.
Australia has one of the highest penetrations of renewable energy in the world.
Even the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change says weather events – including bushfires – can't be sheeted back to climate change.
Australia is unable to take any action whatsoever that would reduce atmospheric CO2 effects on fires or the Great Barrier Reef.
Late last month PM Morrison stated that with only 1.3 per cent of global emissions, no action Australia takes can affect the climate.
But, chucking its charter out the window, the ABC can't even summon the pretence of knowing the facts.
While China is going like the clappers building coal-fired power, the ABC keeps referring to our coal-fired power stations as "stranded assets".
And they never ever report on the cost "climate action" has chalked up for mainstream Australia.
Watching the ABC, Australians were clueless that this year's yellow vest protests in Paris were motivated by a climate change inspired hike in fuel tax.
Everyday Frenchmen don't want to pay the bill for the rich's climate obsession – they simply can't afford it.
With 30% of Australia's C02 emissions coming from food production, it's no wonder the militant vegan activists have joined forces with the climate crusaders.
But the ever-wise former deputy prime minister, John Anderson, reckons there's a better way for people to signal their climate virtue.
With 40 percent of our food wasted, Anderson says we ought to divert our efforts to saving food, instead of throwing it away.
We can add that to the list of ideas we'll never hear on "our" $1 billion a year ABC.
While it would be far more effective, it's far less sensational than gluing oneself to the road.

Discharge Monitoring Report
A Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) is a United States regulatory term for a periodic water pollution report prepared by industries, municipalities and other facilities discharging to surface waters.[1]:8-14 The facilities collect wastewater samples, conduct chemical and/or biological tests of the samples, and submit reports to a state agency or the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). All point source dischargers to "Waters of the U.S." must obtain a National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit from the appropriate agency, and many permittees are required to file DMRs.[2]
1 NPDES permits and DMR reporting process
2 Accessing DMR Data
NPDES permits and DMR reporting process[edit]
For permits other than stormwater permits, the agencies issue effluent limitations for specific pollutants, pursuant to the Clean Water Act (CWA). The basis for these limitations depends on the type of discharging facility, the discharge characteristics and status of the specific surface water body receiving the discharge.
National technology-based standards apply to many industries (these standards are called "effluent guidelines"),[1]:5-14—5-22 and to municipal sewage treatment plants.[3]
Some dischargers are subject to water quality-based effluent limitations, derived from water quality standards for the adjacent water body.
For pollutants not covered by the above circumstances, the agency may set technology-based limitations based on its "best professional judgment" (BPJ).[1]:5-44—5-49
Most NPDES permits require facilities to submit monthly DMRs, but some permits require seasonal or semi-annual reporting.[1]:8-5 Facilities may collect and analyze samples more frequently, e.g. weekly, and summarize the results for the prescribed reporting period. Permits typically require reporting of wastewater flow and the results of one or more chemical tests corresponding to the effluent limitations. Typical monitoring parameters include pH, biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), total suspended solids (TSS), nutrients (nitrates and phosphorus), various toxic pollutants, temperature, etc. Some permits also require aquatic biomonitoring of the receiving waterbody.[4][1]:8-12
Accessing DMR Data[edit]
The CWA defines DMR data as publicly available information (except for data that would reveal trade secrets).[5] EPA houses DMR data in its Integrated Compliance Information System (ICIS). The NPDES e-reporting Tool Discharge Monitoring Report (NetDMR) is an EPA web-based tool that allows NPDES permittees to electronically sign and submit their discharge monitoring reports to EPA via a secure internet connection (NetDMR is the new tool that replaced the previous Permit Compliance System (PCS)). Information from ICIS database is available through EPA's "Envirofacts" website and "Enforcement and Compliance History Online" (ECHO).[6][7] The Agency provides a DMR "Pollutant Loading Tool" to help users determine who is discharging, what pollutants they are discharging and how much, and where they are discharging.[8] EPA also allows users to search its Facility Registry System, to compare a facility's compliance with air, water and solid waste permits and regulations.[9]

Dolly Tree (17 March 1899 – 17 May 1962) was an English illustrator, actress and costume designer who during the 1930s and 1940s designed dresses for Myrna Loy, Jean Harlow, Rosalind Russell, Maureen O'Sullivan and Judy Garland among others in addition to costuming historical dramas such as David Copperfield (1935) and  A Tale of Two Cities (1935).

Biography

Born in Westbury-on-Trym in Bristol in 1899 as Dorothy Marian Isbell, the daughter of Charles Edwin Isbell (1863–1942), a solicitor, and Bertha Marian (née Keith-Williams) (1874–1947). At an early age she discovered an aptitude for drawing before being drawn towards a career on the stage. In 1912 her family relocated to London and she began her career as an artist after seeing the play Vanity Fair at the Palace Theatre in 1916. Of the play she later wrote, 'I was fascinated by the wonderful dancing and art of Regine Flory and admired her so much that I started to design a special poster of her, really to amuse myself, based on my recollections of this vivid artist seen across the footlights.' A friend took her drawing to Sir Alfred Butt who bought it and gave her a two-year contract (c1917-1918) to design posters and programme covers for of all his shows including The Boy (1917), The Beauty Spot (1917), Going Up (1918), Telling the Tale (1918), The Latest Craze (1919), The Kiss Call (1919), Very Good Eddie (1919) and Hello America (1919). Her comic illustrations also appeared in various British newspapers and magazines.

Between 1915 and 1918 Dolly Tree appeared in five British silent films as an actress. In the United Kingdom her career as a costume designer began in the 1920s on various cabaret shows in London in particular; in 1923 she collaborated on her first film, Woman to Woman, directed by Graham Cutts and with Alfred Hitchcock as the co-screenwriter, artistic director and assistant director. Her work became popular in Paris where she became the first English person and the first woman to design for the Folies Bergère.

In 1926 she moved to the United States, first working in New York where she created the costumes for the 1928 Broadway play Diamond Lil starring Mae West. She then went to Hollywood where she was involved in designing for 175 American films, firstly for Fox Studios (1929–1931) and then for Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (1931–1942), mainly as a designer of dresses, among others alongside Adrian. In 1931 while working at Fox Studios she met and married the American Naval officer Thomas Kimes. The marriage was a happy one, but his career in the Navy kept them apart and they divorced in 1940. After her divorce Tree began to drink heavily which led to her leaving MGM in 1942 (this is not the case – she left MGM to work for a wholesale company – see the biography Dolly Tree: A Dream of Beauty) and returning to Fox Studios where she married her second husband, Don E. Whiteford. However, this marriage also did not work and they quickly  divorced, which drove Tree further into alcoholism. Her second divorce, her heavy drinking and the death of her father in 1942 led to her becoming increasing unreliable and losing her job.

Dolly Tree died aged 63 at the Pilgrim State Hospital in New York in 1962. In her will she left £757 to Arthur Thomas Isbell, a retired shopkeeper, and Edith Mary Kelynack (1894–1971) in her native United Kingdom.

Eagle boys' hoop soars past visiting Tigers

BRISTOL — Make it five straight.
The Mount Abraham boys' basketball team pulled away from visiting Middlebury in Tuesday's second half to win big, 66-39, and improve to 7-4.
That record follows a 2-4 start and has Coach Martin Clark's Eagles thinking about a winning record and maybe even a Division II home playoff game, accomplishments not seen for the program since the late 2000s.
"The boys are mentally keeping their heads. They're playing a lot more under control than we were at the beginning of the season," Clark said. "And I think we're just building confidence. We're building confidence as a group, more than anything."
Senior Henry Cogswell, whose career-high 30 points help spark the Eagles on offense, said their defense and effort has made the difference, often by creating fast-break points, as they did when Mount Abe broke Tuesday's game open in the second and third quarters.
"We have a ton of players who give 100% all the time, and that impacts our defense a ton. And to have those type of kids who will just hustle for any ball, it becomes a big part of your game," Cogswell said. "This team works so hard and puts in so much effort it really shows in those situations, defensively and in transition."

The Tigers had been the better team in recent years, but Coach John Howe's 3-9 squad is inexperienced this season, and Howe is already looking ahead. He noted Nikolai Luksch, who returned from a multi-game injury absence on Tuesday, is the only senior seeing regular playing time.
"It's a good rebuilding year. We're finding little hooks here and there. We had a phenomenal start Saturday at Enosburg," Howe said. "We're just not finding the execution. So hopefully next season we've got some strong sophomores coming up, and these guys will have some experience, because most of the guys who are getting playing time are juniors."
He acknowledged the Eagle defense, but also said his team continues to struggle in its offensive sets.
"We just can't execute on offense," Howe said. "We run our offense for about two minutes, and then we stop. So a lot of credit to Martin. He's a good coach, the boys are wonderful."
On Tuesday the Eagles did not start quickly on offense, but their defense was a constant. After an opening hoop by Luksch, the Eagles went on a 12-0 run that opened with a Chance Denecker three-pointer at 4:45 and ended with a Cogswell drive at 1:30. Those two Eagles combined for 11 of those points.
TIGER SENIOR NIKOLAI Luksch goes up for the shot as Tiger senior Daniel Rodriguez moves in to defend during Tuesday's game in Bristol. Luksch, returning from injury, scored nine points, but the Eagles prevailed.
Tiger center Penn Riney countered with two buckets inside to close the period, and it was 12-7, Mount Abe, after one.
Eagle forward Noah Gargano scored all of his team's eight points over the first 3:28 of the second period, with Willem Berry's two free throws and a Jack Trudeau three answering for the Tigers, and it was 20-12.
Denecker, Daniel Rodriguez and Cogswell combined as the Eagles went on an 8-1 run that threatened to bury the Tigers, but Luksch gave MUHS hope with five straight points to close the half, and the lead was 28-18 at the break.
Luksch stole the ball and hit a layup a minute into the second half, and it was essentially anybody's game at 28-20.
But the Eagles had switched from man to a 2-3 zone that baffled the Tigers, who kept turning the ball over, and Mount Abe went on a decisive 11-0 run. Gargano hit two more hoops inside, Cogswell nailed a three, and Denecker set up Cogswell in transition and Gavin Bannister in the post, and it was 37-20 with three minutes left in the period.
"When we came out in the second half in a zone it put a little pressure on them for a while, and we had some good transition play," Clark said. "We played solid man-to-man in the first half, and I was real happy with that. I just thought I'd change it up a little bit, show them a different look."
TIGER SAM WARREN gets a hand up on Eagle Henry Cogswell, but it's too late during Tuesday's game in Bristol. Cogswell tossed in a career-high 30 points as Mount Abe defeated the Tigers, 66-39.
When Cogswell soon afterward beat the third-period buzzer with another three, the Eagles had capped a 21-8 quarter and led, 49-26.
The Eagles turned the ball over just 11 times, compared to 29 miscues for the Tigers, and earned a 45-40 edge on the boards, counting team rebounds.
Riney led the Tigers with 12 points, followed by Luksch (nine), Trudeau (six) and Cole Ashelin and Jeremiah Tinker (four apiece).
Following Cogswell in the scoring column for the Eagles were Gargano (13), Denecker (10) and Dominic DeNapoli and Bannister (four apiece).
Cogswell called Tuesday's result "a huge statement game," that demonstrated the Eagles' ability, and said with the team's coachability and hustle he expects more good results.
"If we can play the way we know we can play, we can win," he said.

KTM UNVEILS 2019 KTM 1290 SUPER DUKE GT & R MODELS AT INTERMOT; KTM 790 DUKE COMES TO NORTH AMERICA IN NOVEMBER
by Patrick Lambie
2019 1290 Super Duke GT
MURRIETA, Calif. – Earlier today at the INTERMOT show in Cologne, Germany, KTM unveiled a sharper, stronger and more refined version of its premium sports tourer with the 2019 KTM SUPER DUKE GT, while 'THE BEAST' KTM 1290 SUPER DUKE R receives two new graphics options. In addition to the exciting global releases, KTM North America, Inc. is pleased to introduce the 2019 KTM 790 DUKE to the North American market, making its way to KTM Dealerships this November.
The KTM 790 DUKE is devastatingly accurate. With the agility and purity you'd expect from a single, combined with the hard-hitting punch of a twin, the KTM 790 DUKE carves up the road with pinpoint precision. Boasting the all-new, compact 799cc LC8c parallel twin motor – a first for KTM – nestled into one of the lightest frames around, the new KTM 790 DUKE is the most compact twin in its class. The engine was tuned for torque, giving it fantastic rideable power, while maintaining a great top end to match the sporty character of the bike. Power delivery is efficiently controlled by advanced electronics and next-generation rider aids.
Considerable attention was paid to achieving the typical DUKE, riding feeling of lightness, agility and sportiness. Handling is not only agile, but also very precise thanks to geometry developed specifically for sporty street riding. High-quality WP suspension ensures a perfect connection with the road and confidence in the bike at all times, making it impressively easy to race ahead of the pack.
KTM 1290 SUPER DUKE GT
Meet the next generation of the KTM 1290 SUPER DUKE GT. At first glance, the 2019 "GT" betrays the distinct, extremely aggressive base of the 1290 SUPER DUKE R that became famous as the 'THE BEAST'. Even though it was drafted as a separate model, the GT approaches touring from a sporty angle. No ifs, ands, or buts. And just to let you know up front: the core of the SUPER DUKE GT will always be incredible performance.
This KTM is the cutting-edge interpretation of a sport bike fit for travel. The 1290 SUPER DUKE GT is not a slimmed-down super tourer with racing stripes, it is an extremely sporty real-world champion, which for the first time masters the seemingly impossible split between mountainous twisties, comfortable long-distance highway travelling and breath-taking track day use, thanks to intelligent and innovative design and technology.
For 2019, the 1290 SUPER DUKE GT features a new LED Headlight, handguards, improved wind protection, a full-color TFT Dashboard, a whole new shape of the front and many more details like storage compartments and connectivity features. The GT's engine also saw updates including titanium inlet valves, resonator chamber technology and new mapping, resulting in even further refinement, speed and performance.
Hundreds of hours and thousands of test miles firmly cement KTM's king of naked bikes on the cutting-edge of high-adrenaline motorcycling. Thanks to the sophisticated resonator chambers on the cylinder heads, designed to polish the torque output in the low to mid-engine speed range, the KTM 1290 SUPER DUKE R powertrain runs smoothly while delivering maximum power. Ultimately, it is the seemingly minor details that enhance power, such as the carefully optimized intake flange that alone widens the power band by 500 rpm. Every piece, system, nut and bolt of the SUPER DUKE R wants you to go fast and yet stay in control: the wide, low handlebar, the Brembo monobloc brakes, the MSC including cornering ABS, the glorious WP suspension, the optional, two-way Quickshifter+, the multifunctional TFT display and the LED headlight. The optional "Track Pack" including launch control, spin adjuster, a track ride mode, freely configurable ignition mapping and anti-wheelie off function. Then, there is the optional "Performance Pack" to include motor slip regulation (MSR) and the Quickshifter+. The KTM MY RIDE smartphone and audio player integration comes now as standard. The optional anti-wheelie mode can disengage the anti-wheelie function of the MTC, and with the KTM RACE ON transponder key in your pocket, you can forget about ignition keys and mechanically locked fuel caps.
Further news and information on KTM models for 2019 will be announced on November 6 at EICMA in Milan, Italy.

PFStock.com: Frontier Communications (FTR): A New Stock?
When I last updated my E*TRADE stock portfolio in Microsoft Money, I was surprised to find that a new stock had been added to my portfolio. I was now the owner of 48 shares of Frontier Communications (NYSE: FTR) that I didn't purchase. E*TRADE is not in the habit of giving away free stock, so I figured that there must be another reason. I turns out that this stock is due to the spin off on July 2, 2010 of Frontier shares from Verizon Communications (NYSE: VZ) which I own.
I usually don't get too excited about spin offs because they require me to re-calculate the tax basis of the stock shares that I own. In this case, I need to find the cost basis for both the Verizon and Frontier shares that I now own. Also when I finally sell the stock, I will be charged two sets of commissions -- one for Verizon (VZ) and another one for Frontier (FTR). Thankfully, I was able to find a tax-basis document on the Verizon investor relations website that can help with the tax basis calculations.
The gist of the document is that an owner of Verizon shares prior to the spinoff would allocate 93.7989% of the cost basis to Verizon shares. And 6.2011% of the cost basis would be allocated to shares of Frontier. There is also a small portion of the cost basis that may be paid out as "cash in lieu" (CIL) of fractional shares. If you received case in lieu, you would subtract that amount from the portion that is allocated to Frontier.
Using my own case as an example, I own 200 shares of Verizon. My original cost basis for the 200 shares of Verizon was $6705.00 (including commissions). This works out to $33.53 per share. So after the spinoff, 93.7989% of that amount or $6289.22 is attributed to the 200 shares of Verizon that I own (the new cost basis is $31.45 per share). The portion that is allocated to the 48 shares of Frontier is 6.2011% or $415.78. However, I did receive $0.06 (6 cents) of cash-in-lieu, so I would decrease my Frontier basis by that amount. My cost basis works out to $8.66 per share of Frontier. I have updated these values in MS Money, and will use these as the basis for whenever I decide to sell my shares.
Note that I did notice a few minor errors in the document provided by Verizon investor relations. I plan to contact them about these errors. But for the most part, these errors would not affect your calculations. So, is this explanation as clear as mud?
UPDATE: I did contact Verizon investor relations about errors in their document. I have an early version that had some calculation errors and several typos. After Verizon received my message, they updated the PDF document on their website, giving it a new name: "VZ-FTR Cost Basis_V3.pdf". Presumably this is "version 3" of the document. I have updated the links in my post to link to the most current Verizon document.
For reference, I am also including a link to the older cost-basis document without a "V3" in the name. If you examine the second page of this document, you will find that the text refers to an incorrect cost-basis for Frontier of $7.501. Another typo in the second paragraph of the example is that it ends with the term "Frontier sock." This should read as "Frontier stock."
Since my basis was already reduced for the Fairpoint spinoff can I assume that I use that amount instead of the original cost?
Strangely, my original reply somehow got deleted. Anyway, you are correct about FairPoint. This post only covers the most recent spin-off from Verizon. As you may know, Verizon has had a long history of spin-offs and mergers: the original divestiture of AT&T to form Bell Atlantic, the merger with GTE, the spin-offs of Idearc, FairPoint, and finally Frontier.
Oh' what a informative blog. Thanks for posting.

Q: Java read json file from another jar so Im trying to develop a "module/addon" system and I want to read a "module.json" file from all modules/addons loaded in a direcory. So I got the part with looping through the files and stuff. But I dont know how I can access that "module.json" file.
Here is what I tried:
    try {
        for (File file : this.modulesDir.listFiles()) {
            if(file.getName().endsWith(".jar")) {
                InputStream stream = new URLClassLoader(new URL[]{file.toURL()}).getResourceAsStream("./module.json");
                BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(stream));
                StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder();
                while((builder.append(reader.readLine())) != null);
                reader.close();
                stream.close();
                System.out.println(builder.toString());
            }
        }

    } catch (IOException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

A: Alright! I fixed it by changeing the path of the file to module.json instead of /module.json
Heres the code:
     try {
        for (File file : this.modulesDir.listFiles()) {
            if(file.getName().endsWith(".jar")) {
                InputStream stream = new URLClassLoader(new URL[]{file.toURL()}).getResourceAsStream("module.json");
                BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(stream));
                StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder();
                String line;
                while((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
                    builder.append(line);
                }

                System.out.println(builder.toString());
            }
        }

    } catch (IOException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

Aussies love their lawns - it's a place of backyard cricket, cubby houses and trampolines. Even Facebook pages dedicated to lawn admiration are becoming increasingly popular!
A recent survey of 1,000 Aussies nationwide, commissioned by Yates, revealed 77 per cent of us admire other people's lawns and 81 per cent are dreaming of a better lawn at home.
Whilst 18 per cent of Aussies feel their neighbours are judging the state of their garden, over 40 per cent admit to maintaining their lawns to compete with others in their street. Sixty-six per cent keep their lawn looking good for their own eye candy!
"As temperatures drop across the country, lawn growth will slow however weeds can take off and rapidly infest and take over the lawn. Weeds are one of the biggest problems to watch out for over autumn and winter when it comes to your lawns," said Angie Thomas, Horticulture Consultant to Yates.
Broadleaf weeds like bindii and clover start growing actively during the cooler months. Bindii produces prickles and can make the lawn unusable and clover can compete with and overtake large areas of lawn.
Applying Yates Dynamic Lifter during autumn will also promote a lush green lawn as winter approaches and add valuable organic matter back into the soil.


The Spirit Of The Rhythm is a photograph by John Haldane which was uploaded on September 2nd, 2018.
The Spirit of the Rhythm is clear in this candid shot from the Asheville Drum Circle. Every Friday night, weather permitting, drummers, dancers, and crowds of observers gather in Pritchard Park to spend 3 or 4 hours enjoying the "Heartbeat of the Mountains." I enjoy spending time there taking portraits of the many fascinating people who come to the event.
Haldane Creative Art includes candid street photography by John Haldane of Asheville, North Carolina. During the Summer of 2018, I specialized in Black and White candid head shots of people on the streets of Asheville, North Carolina. I used a Canon 7D Mark II camera and a 100-400mm lens, hand held,maintaining a safe distance to enable candid portraits.

Royal London has launched a bid to make the brand a "household" name with its first television advertisement in more than a decade.
The activity is aimed at raising awareness of Royal London and its values following last year's decision to scrap several smaller brands, including Scottish Life, and move customers to the Royal London masterbrand.
Marketing investment in the Royal London brand has been increased as it looks to compete with deep pocketed rivals such as Aviva.
The VCCP created TV ad breaks 2 May during 'Britain's Got Talent' on ITV1. The ad's star, Roy, is seen walking through scenes from British history while a voiceover claims that whoever the customer and whatever the financial times, the life, pensions and investment provider "will be there for you".
The TV ad will be backed by online, digital outdoor and press activity as well as take-over of the Bank Tube Station travelator in London.
Royal London's profile is also set for a boost this summer when it begins its sponsorship of England's one-day international matches.
It will take over from long-term backer Natwest in its sponsorship of England's 50-over matches. It will also be the title sponsor of England's women's one-day internationals, the premier county 50-over tournament and several junior and club contests.
KFC says it is to take a more "emotional" approach in its advertising in an attempt to drive deeper engagement with customers.
Alzheimer's charity Alzheimer's Research UK is launching a social media app that aims to help people understand what having dementia can feel like as it looks to remove the stigma associated with the disease and boost funding.
BrewDog is attempting to underline its outsider status by apologising for "not giving a sh*t" about a decision by industry watchdog The Portman Group, or a "gloomy gaggle of killjoy jobsworths" as the brewer puts it, to censure the marketing for one of its beers for encouraging excessive drinking.
VIP Electronic Cigarettes is to return to television with a "toned down" ad after its last campaign was rapped for being 'overly sexual'.

Reef, wreck and pier
According to the forecasts there was still 24 hours to enjoy the comfortably warm weather before there would be a run of brutally hot days. Wading into the sea confirmed that tomorrow would be when the summer began.
Toes, heels, calf, knee; so far so good. Thigh. Stand on tiptoes. Take a deep breath and sit down. The water temperature comes as a shock, it's not winter cold, but it's still cool enough to surprise. The worse bit is that first wave of water that leaks through my short wetsuit and trickles down my back. An involuntary flick of my spine accompanies this intrusion; if I were a shark, my tail would have flipped left to right. I pull on blue fins, which match my toes, adjust mask and snorkel and lie down. My spine does that ancestral flick again. I roll back the passage of evolutionary time and fully re-enter the water. It does not feel like a kind of homecoming.
Full immersion causes a few stabbed, deep breaths; I concentrate on little else but the in and out of breathing. I can feel the chill of water over the top of my head as fin kicks start me through the water. Long and straight they say, don't splash on the surface. Deep breaths and deep kicks. Soon the industry of muscles warms the water trapped between the wet suit and me. I start to look around, to watch the passage of sand and water.
Finding my way is not easy. The head down attitude of snorkel swimming provides little guidance and fewer way marks. I bob my head to the surface and feel my legs sink. I look for the shore, but it's not where I expect it to be, a turn to the left and there it is. Waves on the sand, semi solid version of the water above, seem to offer some hope of navigation, and to keep on the same track I try to cross them at right angles. But some conspiracy of wind, tides and waves pushes me off course again – this can happen to the best of us – and I resight land with a head up, surprised seal glance. In the middle distance the water turns green and a rock reef looms. I know where I am. I ghost round the rocky edges; even in the water, hugging the rock fast land, seeking the security of the solid.
In a narrow channel the sand rushes away from me, caught in a water flow that returns waves to the deeper water. Even without the regular beat of fins I can feel myself moving through the water, until the current changes direction and the water goes elsewhere. Water turns to treacle, I slow and drift. It was a tiny 15-metre ride, but the power behind it was clear. The pull of water, the return wash of waves born of wind and tides. It makes me wonder how fish cope with such things.
With rocks to my left and open water to my right I keep swimming. Growth and weed and fish to one side and seemingly empty water to the other. I must have swum along this section of rock wall in the past, but it feels brand new. And as far I as am concerned it is. The wash of weeds, the fleeing fish, the shafts of sunlight, splintered by the waves, make the old new again, again and again. Even a backward glance reveals a landscape remade. Such places bring a disorientating loss of memory. Wrasse dart within the swaying weeds, small, brown and green and female. Goatfish, with a proud dark line along their flanks and enquiring yellow whiskers, feel along the seabed. Snails and worms lie still to avoid detection. The fish flee from my duck dives. The pictures show nothing but the wash of sand and the green sweep of weeds. Sea tulips seem to cross the divide of kingdoms – animals that look like plants. The rocks are clothed in an abundance of shapes and forms – tubes that suck in water, feathers that trap the drift of passing food, sheets of green that pass as leaves, rubber like stalks the hold fast to the solid of stone. The water moves, the carpet of life moves, the stones remain a fixed point around which everything else turns.
As the tide falls the rocks stutter to the surface. Where once there was just boiling water and swift reverse flowing currents land begins to show. Green and slippery, sharp of edge, but softened by the growth of weeds. The wave cut platform comes and goes at the whim of the waves. All around deeper water waits.
An arch beckons; a simple swim through. But I have too much life back on land for me to try. I dive to look from both sides, but don't pass through. In younger days, when I was just alone, I would have tried to swim through, and maybe spent too long talking about in later.
A kite shape forms in the sand below me and a small stingray bolts from cover. The sand flows in tight spirals off the wings of the ray, just like the smoke that flows over plane wings in wind tunnels; just a different fluid medium. The ray drifts to a stop, allowing me, for once, to get some pictures. In recent years these fish have had a very bad press – Steve Irwin may have achieved many things, but the development of a public appreciation for stingrays is not listed among them. A dark under edge beckons the ray away from sight; I start to swim back towards the shore.
High up in the atmosphere, nearing the edge of space, ozone forms a protective coat from the radiation of space. Life is fragile. Such radiation would rip the curves of the vital spiral and unwrite the four-letter code that flows through all Earth formed life.
Low in the water the mortal remains of the Ozone rest in the shallow, sandy waters of Indented Head; a summer town of campsites and caravans, a winter town of empty beaches and views across the bay towards Melbourne. Once know as "The Greyhound of the Bay", the bare bones of the Glasgow built Ozone were sunk to provide a breakwater for the town in 1925. Fire, water, wind and the storm of corrosion broke the boat to ever-smaller pieces. Today only one paddle wheel and some anonymous superstructure sit above the water. The Ozone, now far from speedy, and a long, long way from home, has long since given up its crafted finery to the sea. But in place of man-made craft, life clings to metal plates and putty soft wooden board. The plan to protect Indented Head with a coat of Ozone may have come to little, but the bay provided a new manifest of passengers. The small, the green and the delicate now take protection in what's left of the ship. And now, in water warmed by a fiercely hot Sun, I swim to the Ozone to see what I can find.
From the start it's clear that I will rarely be alone out here. I have other swimmers for company, as well as fish. Young kids with no wet suits and no snorkels dive from the wreckage into the water. I feel overdressed. But when I see the rusted edges and darkened holes I wonder who would care for these kids if a misfortune befell them. Kids need spaces in which to have accidents, to gather cut knees and mysterious grazes, it's part of childhood. Parents cannot always catch them if they fall, but I'm not sure this is really the place to put such ideas into practice. I look back across a couple of hundred meters to the shore, and swim away from the kids and hope their parents are paying attention.
With a little imagination you would be able to work out that the Ozone had been a paddle steamer – with a large wooden paddle wheel. Casual evidence that it once had two wheels disappeared into the sea more than a few years ago. Now, the blades of just one wheel sit above the water, attracting cormorants and silver gulls. Below the water a stunted forest of algae and sponges coat the metal frames and sheets. Tiny fish – gobies I think – half walk, half swim in the forest and wait in sunlit glades where the metal shows through. I wonder if some toxic residue, some lingering heavy metal – lead, copper, zinc maybe - keeps the kelp at bay in the bare places of the wreck.
Another stingray glides from cover to view and lands on the sandy bottom.
I lap the wreck once, maybe twice. Unlike the water washed rock, the twisted metal seems more familiar, more distinctive in form even when its function is lost. A wrasse glides into a metal cave, and I have no desire to follow. I turn and swim, feet only, back towards the shore.
In the open water the added layers of neoprene and middle age keep me well afloat, and keeps me high into the water. In movement and floating stillness the buoyancy is unnoticeable, the loss of gravity a constant on both sides of the equation. It's some cross between constant falling and weightlessness. The fish below are as free as the birds above. For some brief moments I drift between both worlds. As the sand nears my face I stand and gravity takes hold. The freedom of water is only noticed in its absence. Feeling heavy and earth bound I start to wade the shallows back to shore.
The diving kids keep deep swimming around the wreck. Their laughter carries over the water towards the shore, echoes from the stones, and returns. From the wreck it must go out the other way too; out over the bay, towards the waters the proud Ozone once cut. Waves meet waves, water and air. The twin fluid oceans carry memories and messages.
A Silver Gull glides close to my head and lands on the sparkling water.
I walk down the beach to where my kids are building castles of sand.
Few meals can compete with the luxury of a cooked breakfast, eaten out of doors, on the morning of a day you have been looking forward to all week.
P is not normally short of smiles, but even she is challenged by the arrival of pancakes and apple juice. Scrambled eggs, decent toast and a pot of tea sit on my side of the table. We share a couple of hash browns – it's not a day to consult food ratings web sites and nutrition panels. It's a day for swimming and exploring.
The evening before we had walked on the beach, looking for the kind of treasure that the tide by tide flow of the sea brings. Shells, shiny and bright. Crab claws, cast off but still connected – snap, snap, snap. Sea urchins, speckled rounded balls of shell, some with just a few spines left, most with none at all. Star fish and real fish, hardened in the Sun, half hidden in the weed stranded at the top of the tide.
But best of all we find a sea cucumber. It looks like a stout pale sausage that tapers to a point at each end, bent into a horseshoe shape. To be honest, it looks like something else really, but it's the wrong colour. A gentle poke with a toe shows it's still alive. Its whole body starts to roll around its length, and without changing its horseshoe shape it moves forward towards a patch of damp looking sand. I assume it is not long for this world. Silver gulls gather a polite distance away, but their intention is clear. P decides this strange creature is called Brian. As we walk on the gulls keep their distance, seemingly unsure what to do. I don't ever recall seeing indecision in gulls before.
A cool breeze from the sea sends us in search of dinner.
We push back the breakfast plates and talk about the day ahead, what we hope to see and what we will do when it's over. In a display of culinary single-mindedness P suggests ice cream.
Out on the pier people wander and watch for movement in the water. Huge shoals of tiny fish silver around the poles and dart into the open water. I don't know what species the fish are, but the numbers are huge. At least one species seems to be doing well. A cormorant sits at the base of a set of metal steps. Its head sweeps back and forth, apparently looking at the fish as well. The head sweep behaviour seems mechanical and fixed, as if the bird is confused by the abundance in front of it. I assume it would be able to catch at least some fish by simply falling into the water. For the short while we watch, it just sits there, with its back and forth head and a statue still body.
We leave it to its fishing.
Few activities can compete with getting into a new wet suit to render you embarrassed, contorted and overheated. We both alternate between frustration and humour as well pull at tight fitting legs and stubborn zips. P goes red in the face and glows like a space heater. I stand under the shower for a while just to cool off. It's a relief when we finally walk into the water.
The pier at Portsea is a well-known and popular destination for divers and snorkelers. I cannot afford to embark on another equipment hobby, so I limit my ambition to snorkelling, which only requires a small amount of kit. Walking backwards into the sea to avoid the penguin like waddle caused by wearing fins – which must never, ever, ever be called "flippers" – brings me into direct contact with a diver. We have the whole ocean to swim in, but we still collide. I make a joke to that effect and the diver looks at me like I am a mad person. It's a depressingly common response. I pull a face at P who laughs – she knows the truth!
Within a few fin kicks of the beach we find a stingray hidden under a rock. Its sharp tail wafts from side to side. I wonder about the safety of the bare foot swimmers and paddlers. These rather splendid looking fish seem to be having a bit of a boom.
Under the pier the currents are fluky and unpredictable. Water rushes round some of the stanchions and seems held back by others. This causes pockets of flowing and pockets of slack water. Being half in one and half in another twists you round in circles.
Brightly coloured sponge gardens coat the woodwork and biscuit stars cling on with sucker feet. Down in the deeper water wrasse and puffer fish pass from shadow into light. Crabs and fleet footed shrimps dash behind the round poles, hiding from the strange neoprene creatures pointing cameras. In the open water the huge schools of tiny fish have gone elsewhere.
Out in the open water, away from the pier, we swim along a rock ledge and over fields of sea green. This is where the dream fish of this trip lives – the weedy sea dragon. Related to sea horses and looking like a plant this is a remarkable fish. The male holds the growing eggs in a pouch and carries them around with him. Wonderfully camouflaged, their fins are almost perfect counterfeits of leaves and they are startlingly hard to see. The guide mentions that you can find them by looking for lengths of seaweed that sway with a different motion to the ones around it – and those out of sync limbs will be the fish. Put another way: look for seaweed that is swishing while its neighbours are swashing. Under these circumstances your failure to find any is not really a surprise.
P pops her head up and points down into the water – her snorkel drops from her mouth and she says "Cow Fish" with a broad grin. And she is right. We both swim along watching it. It's a silly name for a funny fish.
All too soon we have to climb out of the water, and the pull of gravity takes hold again.
As we are walking back along the pier P describes the cow fish – and then, remembering it may almost be lunch time, asks if she can have an ice cream.
I am in no position to refuse.

Brew City Tap, 3105 W. Forest Home Ave., has a modern appearance with large windows, pool table and a recently-constructed patio, but the history of the tavern remains everywhere. Including sitting at the bar.
The bar originally opened in the 1920s as Eddie's Log Tavern, thus the back of the bar is made from logs in tribute to the first iteration of the space. The corner tap later became Gil and Eileen's and, at that time, there was an attached barber shop, now a spacious game room.
"Back then you could have a beer while waiting for your turn for a haircut," says John Schoenrock.
On a recent wintery Thursday afternoon, Schoenrock – who says his last name is "Shamrock" during the month of March – sits at the horseshoe-shaped bar sipping a Pabst and sharing stories about the old days. Schoenrock bartended there in the 1970s when it was still Gil and Eileen's.
He also talks about a dumbwaiter that used to exist behind the bar. Current bartender Debby Daniels elaborates on the purpose of the dumbwaiter while tapping a Coors Light.
"A million years ago there was a kitchen upstairs and they would make chicken dinners up there and send 'em down to customers on the dumbwaiter," she says. "There was also signs in the windows that said something like 'immediate seating for ladies.'"
Black-and-white photos on the wall further document the tavern's past. In one of the photos the streetcar cable line is visible and shows a much-larger front yard at the bar. "They got rid of the streetcar and widened the street," says Schoenrock/Shamrock. "We lost a lot of the yard."
In 2011, Mark and Carolyn Silber bought the bar, remodeled it and renamed it.
The bar is also known for Daniels' Bloody Marys. Although she will make one with vodka, she highly recommends gin as the main spirit. Daniels mixes her Bloodies with extra pickle juice and horseradish and garnishes with a pickle spear, string cheese, marinated mushroom, sausage link and a pepperoncini.
"It ain't nothing like a Sobelman's, but I don't want a whole chicken in my Bloody anyway," says Daniels.
Daniels says if it were up to her, she'd put in a few lines of craft beer to the eight-tap selection. Brew City Tap has an assortment of craft beers in bottles, but all macro beers on tap.
"They'd never have it though," says Daniels, nodding her head at her customers. "They like their regular beers and shots."
A few of Daniels' Brew City Tap customers drank at her dad's bar, Ron's Pub, that was around for decades on 60th Street in West Allis. It's currently the home of Barcode.
"We had some good times in there, Ron's Pub. Good people," says a customer sitting across the bar, then takes a shot. "Just like in here."
Brew City Tap is open seven days a week. Monday-Thursday the hours are from 2 p.m. to bar close. Friday-Sunday the bar opens at noon, unless there's a noon Packers game in which case it opens at 11 a.m.
