Executive discretion, judicial decision making, and separation of powers in the united states
Clifford J. Carrubba, Christopher Jon Zorn
Existing work on the U.S. separation of powers typically views the Supreme Court as the final arbiter of constitutional and statutory disputes. By contrast, much comparative work explicitly recognizes the role of executives in enforcing and implementing court decisions. Drawing on that work, this study relaxes the assumption that executives must comply with Supreme Court rulings, and instead allows the propensity for executive compliance to depend upon indirect enforcement by the public. We develop a simple model of Supreme Court decision making in the presence of executive discretion over compliance and demonstrate that such discretion can restrict substantially the Courts decision making. Using data collected for the Warren and Burger courts, we find evidence consistent with the argument that the Supreme Courts ability to constrain exective descretion depends critically upon the public.

Tres Amigas Project Overview
Posted on August 26, 2010 November 26, 2020 by Michael Giberson
Michael Giberson
The Texas Tribune offers an up-to-date overview of the Tres Amigas project. Here is the intro:
Texas has always operated its own energy grid, separate from the two other grids that span the rest of the nation. But a project quietly emerging in eastern New Mexico would curb that independence — and affect energy prices for Texas consumers in ways that remain much in dispute.
The $2 billion project could connect all three grids (eastern, western, and Texas) as soon as 2013. They would meet near Clovis, N.M., just west of the Texas border. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission has given a preliminary go-ahead to the proposal, known as Tres Amigas, which doubles as the name of the company running it. The federal commission's chairman has praised it as a "prime example of the creativity and pioneering thinking that our country needs."
But serious questions remain over whether the project would benefit Texas residents and businesses — whether electricity prices would rise or fall and whether the connections would allow other states to siphon off too much of Texas' wind power. (Links in source.)
I'm not convinced that "serious questions remain over whether the project would benefit Texas residents and businesses," except for the Federal/State jurisdiction issue. (Discussed here before.) The general economic and reliability benefits from linking power systems are well demonstrated and not seriously questioned.
The article wraps up with a question to Tres Amigas CEO Phil Harris:
Asked if Tres Amigas would move forward if only two grids — eastern and western — signed up, Harris replied: "Yeah. That's already proceeding." Construction of that interconnection should begin next year. But he quickly added that his company was "extraordinarily confident" that Texans would reap economic value from the project. "If there's no benefit," he says, "obviously you wouldn't want to do it."

Kozhikode District , Kerala
The Kozhikode district is known as the most important city of Malabar region and was a popular trade and commerce center
In 1498 Portuguese Navigator Vasco Da Gama discovered Sea Route to India in Kozhikode District. Thus in this way Kozhikode found a place in the World History. Vasco Da Gama landed at the Kappad seashore with three vessels and 170 men. A monument is constructed here to commemorate the historical landing.
Kozhikode city continues to be a center of flourishing domestic and international trade. Its contribution to all round development of the district in trade, commerce and economic development over the years is amazing. The development is remarkable and impressive. Kozhikode city is the marketing center for commodities like pepper coconut, coffee, rubber, lemon grass oil etc. These are produced in Kozhikode and the neighboring districts of Wayanad, Malappuram and Kannur.
Calicut is actually derived form Kalikut that was the Arabic for the Malayalam, Kozhikode. It is also called the Cock Fort. According to the historian, K.V Krishnan Iyer, the term Kozhikode is also derived from two words koyil means Palace and Kodu means Fortified. Anyhow, it is a historical town with an old past. From the ancient time the city is attracting travelers year after year. This district has a charming physical features and prosperity. Even today, the glory that was Calicut has not faded. The political history of Kozhikode is a story of unfaithful and ill-conceived conspiracies thought of the Western powers. The history says, Vasco De Gama landed at Kappad in May 1498, as the leaders of a trade mission from Portugal and was received by the Zamorin himself.
However, the history of Kozhikode district as an administrative unit begins from January 1957. When the states of the Indian Union were reorganized on linguistic basis on 1st November 1956, the former Malabar district was separated from Madras state or Tamil Nadu. This was then added to the new unilingual state of Kerala. But malabar district was found to be too clumsy for administrative purposes. Accordingly the state government ordered the formation of three districts. The formation occurred with certain changes in the boundaries of some of the taluks. The Kozhikode district thus came into existence on 1st Jnauary 1957. It was formed of five taluks, Viz, Vadakara, Koyilandy, Kozhikode, Ernad & Tirur. With the formation of malappuram district on 1st June 1969 & Wayandu on 1st November 1980, kozhikode district now consist of one revenue division, three taluks, twelve blocks, 77 panchayats and 117 villages.
Kozhikode district is situated on the south west coast of India. The boundary of the district can be mentioned, as on the north there is Kannur district, on the east it is Waynad district, on the south there is Malappuram district while on the west it is surrounded by the Arabian Sea.
Topographically the district has three distinct regions - the sandy, the rocky highlands, which is formed by the hilly portion of the Western Ghats, and the third one is lateritic midland. Of the total area of 2344 sq. km. the sandy coastal belt is 362.85 sq. km. lateritic midland is 1343.50 sq. km. and rocky highlands is 637.65 sq. km.
The district has three taluks. All of which are spreaded over the three regions. The district has a coastal length of about 80 km. The highland region accounts for 26.80 per cent and the lowland region for 15.55 per cent of the total area of the district.
The climate in Kozhikode district is very humid with a very hot season and the season extends from March to May. The most important rainy season is during the South West Monsoon, which sets in the first week of June and extends up to September. The North-East Monsoon extends from the second half of October through November. The average annual rainfall is 3266 mm.
During December to march, there is no rain fall in general and from October onwards the temperature gradually increase to reach. It gets the maximum in the month of May. This is the hottest month of the year. The highest maximum temperature recorded at Kozhikode was 39.40 C during the month of March. This was recorded in 1975. The lowest temperature was 140 C recorded on 26th December 1975. Humidity is very high in the coastal region so far.
Malabar Mahotsavam:
This is the most important festival in the Kozhikode district. It is always celebrated with full pomp and glory. It can be said as Malabar, The land of lush green coconut groves and luxurious vegetation is home to many festivals. But the "Malabar Mahotsavam", is the annual tourism festival of Kozhikode. This is celebrated in winter season every year since 1992. This is regarded as the best among the other festivals.
With a view to diminish the gap between the renowned scholars and artists with the common man this Mahotsav was organized. In earlier days this scholars in different disciplines of art and culture of the nation are often inaccessible to the common man. In the year 1992, the Kozhikode District Tourism Promotion Council attempted to give the art loving people and the tourists a unique opportunity to enjoy their performances. Thus, the famous Malabar Mahotsavam was born in Kerala. This was the first attempt of its kind. Now the festival has become the strongest magnet of domestic tourism.
Kalarippayat or the martial art of Kerala:
. Kalarippayat is the exclusive martial arts heritage of Kerala. It was taken to China by the Buddhist monks, which became the legendary model for the modern martial arts. Kalari Payattu encompasses a revitalizing Ayurvedic herbal treatment for chronic ailments like arthritis and sodalities. It also gives a massage treatment, which repairs physiological damages and makes the body young and supple. The fracture treatment system, developed as a corollary of the rough and tumble world of martial arts. It gives away with the risk-ridden x-rays and hit-or-miss plater-cast method.
Kalarippayat, in literal meaning is 'acquired skill' of art. It is mainly derived from two words 'Kalari' means school or arena and 'Payat' is skill training, exercise or practice. It is the most comprehensive personal combat training scheme anywhere in the world.
The training includes exercises to develop sharp reflexes for unarmed struggle and techniques of fighting using mace or stick, spears, daggers, sword and shield etc. There is also a unique Kerala weapon that is known as the lethal flexible sword, called 'Urumi' which can be concealed as a waist belt.
Kalri also includes the 'marma' treatment that identifies the vital nodal points or marmas in the body. 107 of them are suitable for pressing and pushing to correct muscular and neurological problems. The massaging may involve standing full length over the patient and applying pressure with the feet. The system is acknowledged superior to any other method of massage. But this should always be done by the experts and even a simple mistake can prove as a massive problem in future life.

The United States, Russia and China are sending a terrible message to the rest of the world by refusing to take part in the historic signing of a treaty that bans the production and use of cluster bombs. In a world that is plagued by war, military occupation and terrorism, the involvement of the great military powers in signing and ratifying the agreement would have signaled – if even symbolically – the willingness of these countries to spare civilians' unjustifiable deaths and the lasting scars of war.
Nonetheless, the incessant activism of many conscientious individuals and organizations came to fruition on December 3-4 when ninety-three countries signed a treaty in Oslo, Norway that bans the weapon, which has killed and maimed many thousands of civilians.
The accord was negotiated in May, and should go into effect in six months, once it is ratified by 30 countries. There is little doubt that the treaty will be ratified; in fact, many are eager to be a member of the elite group of 30. Unfortunately, albeit unsurprisingly, the US, Russia, China, Israel, India and Pakistan – a group that includes the biggest makers and users of the weapon – neither attended the Ireland negotiations, nor did they show any interest in signing the agreement.
The US argues that cluster bombs are a legitimate weapon, essential to repel the advancing columns of enemy troops. If such a claim carried an iota of legitimacy, then the weapon's use should have ended with the end of conventional wars in the mid twentieth century. However, cluster bombs are still heavily utilized in wars fought in or around civilian areas.
Most countries that have signed the accords are not involved in any active military conflict and are not in any way benefiting from the lucrative cluster munition industry. The hope, however is that once a majority of countries, including the Holy See, sign the agreement, the use of the lethal weapon will be greatly stigmatized.
The treaty was the outcome of intensive campaigning by the Cluster Munition Coalition (CMC), a group of non-governmental organizations. CMC is determined to carry on with its campaigning to bring more signatories to the fold.
But without the involvement of the major producers and active users of the weapon, the Oslo ceremony will remain largely symbolic. However, there is nothing symbolic about the pain and bitter losses experienced by the cluster bombs' many victims. According to the group Handicap International, one-third of cluster-bomb victims are children. Equally alarming, 98 percent of the weapon's overall victims are civilians. The group estimates that about 100,000 people have been maimed or killed by cluster bombs around the world since 1965.
It certainly is unconscionable that countries who have the chutzpa to impose themselves as the guardians of human rights are the same who rebuff such initiatives and insist on their right to utilize such a killing tool. Unlike conventional weapons, cluster bomblets survive for many years, luring little children with their attractive looks. Children have often mistaken them for candy or toys.
Steve Goose, the arms director of Human Rights Watch described the countries that refused to sign as standing "on the wrong side of history. Some of them are clinging to what is now a widely discredited weapon."
But there is more to that refusal than clinging onto an outdated military philosophy. The cluster munition industry is thriving. The weapon was used in massive quantities by the US army in Afghanistan, Iraq, Israel in Lebanon and both parties in the S. Ossetia conflict. The British also used it in Iraq, making handsome deals with the weapons' Israeli manufacturer.
13 year-old Ayat Suliman now lives in Sweden. In an AFP report, she complained, referring to her peers: "Nobody understands me. They all think I'm ugly." It was on May 5, 2003 that Ayat's brother came running with what he thought was a dazzling toy. "I remember that it was very colorful and very nice," said Ayat. The explosion that rocked the little girl's house in Iraq claimed the lives of her four brothers and cousin, aged 3 to 15. Most of Ayat's body was burned as a result, and she is still unable to walk independently.
The tragic stories of Ahmad and Ayat are repeated throughout the world, almost everyday, with some countries paying a much more disproportionate price than others, notably, again, Iraq, Afghanistan and Lebanon.
But neither terrible statistics nor the heart- wrenching personal stories of the many victims seem enough to compel manufactures and active users of the weapon to quit. Countries with sizable military power tend to avoid any entanglement in international law or treaties that limit their flexing or application of their military muscle. The US and Israeli attitudes towards international law carry similar traits, both act as entities above the law, tirelessly infusing 'national security' as an excuse for their rebuffing of such international initiatives. It's also no surprise that the US, Israel, but also Russia refuse to ratify the 1997 Ottawa Treaty, signed by 158 countries – as of 2007 – which prohibits the production, transfer or use of landmines.
Of course, neither the Ottawa nor the Oslo treaties are the exception to the rule as far as Washington's attitude towards positive international initiatives are concerned. The US under the Bush administration developed a mind-set of animosity towards the rest of the international community, reaching the point of dubbing the UN irrelevant.
Needless to say, CMC, world governments and citizens throughout the world are hoping that the new American administration of Barack Obama will truly bring an end and reverse Bush's ruinous legacy. Realists say it will take years for an effective change of policy to take place. In the meantime, the millions of unexploded cluster bomblets and landmines scattered the world over, wait for no one. They will continue to claim lives and maim thousands, just like Ahmad of Lebanon, and Ayat of Iraq.

Hello! A lot has happened since my last blog post. We've brought our second daughter into the world, and she's now five months old. We've also been dealing with a new medical diagnosis.
In the midst of it, I'm excited to share recent publications! My flash fiction piece, "Tuesday," was published with Syntax & Salt in June (originally appeared on Ellipsis Zine), and my story, "After the Vital Signs," was published in this month's issue of Jellyfish Review just a few days ago! Two very different pieces–I'm honored to be in both publications. I hope, if you check out my pieces, that you read the other work published on these sites–it's wonderful!
I've also just gotten the news that I'll have a piece of creative nonfiction published for the first time–forthcoming with Atticus Review! It was a difficult piece for me to write, as I process what's been going on the past few months, but it is an important piece for me.
I'm more often on Twitter these days, so look for me there @Emi_Livingstone. Hope all are well.


All my life I've been told that a car with a cape is an incredibly stupid idea. Magnificent childhood doodles were critiqued for being "aerodynamically-challenged," and "downright dangerous to other vehicles on the road." But 35 years after I abandoned my crayons, Hot Wheels and Star Wars have finally proven that a car with a cape is a legitimately awesome idea.
With Solo: A Star Wars Story hitting theaters on May 25, today the floodgates opened for all the toys and merchandise connected to the film. You won't be able to find any of it in stores until April 13, but among all the budget-busting new releases is three new Hot Wheels character car designs.
The Han Solo and Chewbacca rides aren't without their charms, but it's the low-riding Lando Calrissian vehicle, complete with a majestic flowing cape and fins on the back, that will be worth your four hard-earned dollars. In the past, Hot Wheels has turned some of its Star Wars character cars into real-life working vehicles, including the Vadermobile, and a four-wheeled version of the X-wing. So I'm really hoping they do the same for Lando's new whip, showing the world how excellent a caped car can be.

We have a strange effect on customer's BW 7.50 on HANA.
SAP told us many times that a table with storage type column store has an index on every column aka table field and we would not need to create secondary indices in SE11.
Funny fact, the system will create implicit single column index only for primary key fields and for attribute fields in certain situations.
...active, since there is legacy code and there may be good old row-store-tables as well where I want to see bad access practice with lazy or no index care.
While watching the check results I wonder why my column store table shows up in the section "Large table ...: No first field of a table index in WHERE condition"
Remember: column store means that a key column is an implicit index.
Why do I see that select statement which does a WHERE-clause on a key field of the table in my ATC results?
Which section of documentation did I miss? Or do we have a bug in ATC? We appreciate your comment.

He especially enjoys making a major, positive impact in people's lives, whether it is helping them achieve fitness goals or increasing their quality of life. David's effectiveness in this regard emanates not only from his extensive fitness background, but also from a life-changing event that happened a little over a decade ago.
In the summer of 1995, David suffered a near fatal illness. While teaching a Pilates Mat Class to the dancers at the Kansas City Ballet (formerly State Ballet of Missouri), David contracted a rare bacterial infection that led to toxic shock syndrome. After six weeks in ICU on full life support, followed by an additional two months in the hospital and the amputation of his toes, David's prognosis was grim. His doctors told him to prepare for a lifetime as an invalid. Relying on his extensive fitness training, along with a strong faith and will to survive, David rehabbed himself back into condition. The process was slow and never easy, but much like the fundamental progressions he teaches in Pilates that build upon one another, David steadily moved from wheelchair to walker to crutches to cane, and ultimately to unaided walking again.
The decade plus since has been a medical time for David. He knows the process of injury, recovery, and setback firsthand and understands the patience required to continue to thrive in the face of adversity. Post toxic shock, David's compromised immune system and multiple surgeries (17+ to date) are a continuing battle, but one he continues to surmount. With this firsthand knowledge of illness and disease, David strives to be a role model to all of his clients. Following the template of Joseph H. Pilates who borrowed from many fitness modalities to develop his method of physical and mental conditioning, David, with his background in sports, dance, personal training, Pilates and the Gyrotonic Expansion System, possesses the skills needed to help his clients reach their own goals.

Q: Click outside the box to dismiss instead of having to click inside Sometimes you can see a box appearing telling you you can't upvote if you don't have enough rep or telling you you can't accept your own answer yet and so on (I hope you get what I'm talking about).
For now you have to click inside the box to dismiss it.
Wouldn't it be more user-friendly and less surprising for the user if you just had to click outside the box to dismiss it?
I regularly forget that I have to click inside so I click outside (the usual behavior of such overlays is to disappear when the user clicks outside imo); then nothing happens so I read the box. Then I click inside to close it. But it Makes me think!
Isn't having to specify how to close the box a sign of bad design?
What do you think?

A: Clicking within the box has one behavior: dismissing the box.
Clicking outside the box is … indeterminate.
What if I click the upvote arrow on another post? Does that dismiss the box, or cast a vote? Or both? What if I click the "expand comments" action? Or the "Post Your Answer" button?
Now you've made me think again! :)

A: Definitely, definitely not.
This was what User Voice does, or at least did - if you were going across multiple tabs, and happened to click outside the box, it would dismiss the dialog box - even if you had important text in there.
It's far too easy to catch clicks which are nothing to do with a dialog - if they're outside the box, they shouldn't affect the box IMO.

News Roundup: Gov. Chris Christie, Syrian Rebels, Baseball Hall Of Fame
I watched the story building for several days. I was thinking, there is no way that New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie would be involved in something as stupid, as petty, and as blatantly disrespectful to the constituents of New Jersey as intentionally gridlocking a city. I was wrong.
From New York Times:
The mystery of who closed two lanes onto the George Washington Bridge — turning the borough of Fort Lee, N.J., into a parking lot for four days in September — exploded into a full-bore political scandal for Gov. Chris Christie on Wednesday. Emails and texts revealed that a top aide had ordered the closings to punish the town's mayor after he did not endorse the governor for re-election. (more…)

Women can't be trusted (Updated)
The GOP has shown me the light. Women just can't be trusted with their own reproductive rights. If we let women chose, they may choose to get an education. They may choose to join the work force. They may or may not choose to stay home. We can't have all that choice. We need to decide what's best for women.
From RM Blog:
Following up on an earlier item, here was the witness table at the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, as discussion about contraception access and health care got underway.
You'll notice, of course, that all of the witnesses are men. What you can't tell from the photo is that the second panel will feature four more men, and the combined total of the nine witnesses will include no women, no experts on contraception, no experts on health care, and no experts who might say something Republicans disagree with.
As ThinkProgress noted, this proved to be a bit too much for some of the Democratic woman on the committee. Rep. Carolyn Maloney (D-N.Y.) asked a sensible question under the circumstances: "Where are the women? When I look at this panel, I don't see one, single woman representing the tens of millions of women across the country who want and need coverage for basic preventive health care services."
As the farce hearing progressed, nearly all of the Democratic women on the committee left the room in protest.
There is one Republican woman on the committee, Rep. Ann Marie Buerkle (R-N.Y.), who has not expressed concerns about the one-sided nature of the hearing.
Committee Chairman Darrell Issa (R-Calif.), who rejected the one witness Democrats asked to participate, claimed this morning that the Rev. Barry W. Lynn, executive director of Americans United for Separation of Church and State and a progressive voice, had been invited to participate, and would have provided balance to the hearing (balance, in this case, would mean nine conservatives and one liberal). (more…)
Why do we need women on this panel? Seriously, shouldn't it be the other way around? The panel should be 100% women. Men should have no say. NONE. A women's husband, lover, significant one should only be included in the conversation if the woman wants to include him. That's my two cents. What's yours?
Update: This is Sandra Fluke. She clearly hits the nail on the head.

Rick Perry – another head scratcher
In high school, you knew that there were some teachers who were going to call on almost every student in the room and therefore you had to be ready. These debates are exactly the same thing. You have to be ready. Rick Perry simply is not ready. I don't know if he can remember what he's been told. It is mind boggling how awful he has been in these debates.
So, you're on Fox news and you getting softball questions about foreign policy. These are questions that you have been thinking about for the last six months. If you haven't thought about these questions, why are you running for president? Rick Perry gets a softball question about what to do if a terrorist organization gets a hold of Pakistan's nuclear weapons. This is a nightmare scenario that the intelligence community has been talking about for over a decade. This is easy.
First, the right answer – If a terrorist organization gets a hold of a nuclear weapon, we have to approach the problem from multiple different areas. First of all, I'm on the phone with the director of the CIA and the director of National Intelligence. What do they know and what are our options? Secondly, I'm on the phone with the current president of Pakistan, Asif Ali Zardari. What does he know? While I'm on the phone with him, we are coordinating a conference call with the presidents/Prime Ministers of Britain, France, Germany, India and we're patching in the NATO commander. There will be several more calls over the next several hours. We need to have a strong, muscular coordinated response that secures the nuclear weapon or destroys it. It is clear that there are some factions within the Pakistani army and the Pakistani special intelligence forces that sympathize with the Taliban/Al Qaeda. We want Pakistan to know that they're a sovereign country, but we also want them to know that we are going to take a strong and aggressive approach to this problem. There'll be no negotiating with terrorists. The terrorists who have taken this nuclear weapon will be hunted down and captured or killed. We've proven that we have the capability and capacity to do this in Yemen (Anwar al-Awlaki) and with Osama bin Laden.
This is the right answer. This is the answer that plays well both with the Republican and Democratic audience.
What Rick Perry said was the wrong answer. What is he talking about regarding F-16 sales to India? I find it interesting that he mentions that the Obama administration did not sell F-16s to India but somehow he forgets to mention that the Obama administration has negotiated the sale of F-35s, one of our most sophisticated jets. How is the selling F-16 fighters to India going to do anything to secure a loose nuclear weapon in Pakistan? What you saw was Rick Perry in panic mode. Basically, his mind pulled up what ever he could remember about Pakistan. Admiral Mullen said something about a terrorist group. He remembered this and spewed it on stage. He remembered something about fighter jet sales to India. He said whatever came to his mind (unfortunately, nothing that came to his mind) and answered the question anyway. Fail!

Göschenen (German, , ) a village and municipality in the canton of Uri in Switzerland. It sits at the northern end of the Gotthard tunnel. The Göschenen riots (1875) saw Urner troops opening fire on Italian miners demonstrating for better working conditions and wages on the tunnel's construction site.

Name
Göschenen is first mentioned in 1280 as Gesschenden. The name is from Rumantsch *cascina (modern caschigna) "alpine hut", from Latin capsum "corral", but influenced by the word for cheese, cascio. The e in the first syllable is due to Germanic i-umlaut, changed to ö in modern spelling is a hypercorrection based on the phonology of the dialect of Uri.

Geography

Göschenen has an area, , of . Of this area, 7.3% is used for agricultural purposes, while 11.4% is forested. Of the rest of the land, 0.9% is settled (buildings or roads) and the remainder (80.4%) is non-productive (rivers, glaciers or mountains). , 5.1% of the total land area was heavily forested, while 5.5% is covered in small trees and shrubbery.

All of Us Are Dead: When and where to watch it? Check latest updates
byJeff Harris
Korean series definitely dominate the world of zombies and monsters. From the zombie-packed thrilling blockbuster Train to Busan to the monsterly territory of Sweet Home, everything is similar yet so different, intriguing, and gripping. This is exactly what we can expect from the latest Netflix offering All of Us Are Dead, if not more.
If you are a fan of zombies, blood-shedding, violence, and a few jumpscares, All of Us Are Dead, created by Lee JQ, Chun Sung-il, Kim Nam-su, will make for a perfect weekend binge-worthy option. The series stars Park Ji-hu, Yoon Chan-young, and Cho Yi-hyun.
While most of us must have been keeping a close eye on the calendar, others might not be aware of what is it that is keeping the fans on their toes. So, if you fall in the other list, here we have all the details and latest updates to keep the excitement high.
Courtesy: Netflix
All of Us Are Dead Plot
The thriller series, based on a Korean webtoon Now at Our School, revolves around a zombie virus outbreak in a high school. The students, trapped in the ground zero of the virus outbreak, must find their way out. If not, they should brace themselves for joining the zombie gang.
All of Us Are Dead Trailer
The official trailer of All of Us Are Dead was released on the YouTube channel of the streaming giant on January 14, 2022. The trailer, to date, has surpassed 11 million + views which is proof of the skyrocketing popularity of yet another Korean zombie series. The trailer is as good as one can expect it to be, given that it is coming from South Korea, which has of late expanded its reign and dominance on the entertainment industry globally, and gives us a thrilling sneak peek of what it has in store that will be unveiled on January 28, 2022.
If you haven't watched the trailer yet, watch it here.
All of Us Are Dead Release Date
The thriller series is all set to release on Friday, January 28, 2022. It's been a while since the release date was confirmed and revealed and since then the K-drama fans can't help but have their eyes glued on their screens refreshing and reloading the Netflix site to get some new information about the much-awaited series.
Where to watch All of Us Are Dead?
As aforementioned, the series will be available to watch on Netflix this Friday. Reportedly, the series will have 8 episodes with a run time of about 42 minutes each. All the episodes are expected to drop on Friday in one go, as is the case with most of the Netflix series.
All of Us Are Dead Making
On January 26, 2022, Netflix Asia has released the making video of All of Us Are Dead on its official YouTube channel. The behind the scenes video has garnered more than 11K views in just a few hours of its upload. Watch it here.
Will there be All of Us Are Dead Season 2?
While it's too early to anticipate All of Us Are Dead Season 2, since the release of Season 1 is due on January 28, 2022, given the history of Netflix, getting to know that All of Us Are Dead Season 2 is in the making soon after the release of the first one shouldn't come as a big surprise. Moreover, Netflix is giving a hint towards another season as well. If you visit the Netflix official site it says All of Us Are Dead Season 1 coming on Friday. So, if we pick up hints, we might get another season depending upon the response on the first one, which will, of course, be a good one, if not great.

Inquire: info@laisunkeane.com
I create paintings which use figure, color, light and composition to explore stories of feminine identifying people. With invented, chromatic worlds, I am referencing stories of mythological goddesses and playful experiences with my friends. I often use beautiful, bright colors I identify as feminine, such as hot pinks, teals, and yellows, that unapologetically asks for the viewer's attention through saturation. I am also interested in the way light can play a character with the forms by bringing nuanced shadows and illuminating the atmosphere. Using high-key pigment or pointed light I create surreal worlds that are made recognizable with representational colors and nameable objects. The compositions I use to hold these ideas are derived from my Midwest upbringing and often reference places of home for me. The figures are found dawdling in fields or dreaming by water. Sometimes they are found in houses, lounging inside the womb of a structure. Historically, both settings have been spoken of as feminine representations. In society the interior is seen as a domestic space, typically set aside for women to care for. Throughout art historical narratives, specifically in the Renaissance and Baroque era, the conquering of land was symbolically seen through illustration of the capture or rape of the female nude. Showcasing disrobed porcelain bodies being swept away within a dreamy landscape of blues skies and atmospheric mountains. I find myself simultaneously inspired by the ethereal worlds these artists have created and driven to protest their use of the female figures as an object to please the male gaze. My work utilizes the circular composition, commonly used in renaissance painting, ensuring the audiences engagement with the surface. The circle functions as a structure in painting as well as a representation of the menstrual cycle. My paintings resist the way the circle allows the viewer to examine a nude body for personal pleasure and instead is inviting the eye to move through stories of women who hold their own autonomy.
Eva Lewis' work centers feminine identifying people and representation of their bodies in public places. Her work aims to juxtapose the use of a female body in settings and landscapes commonly seen in Renaissance and Baroque compositions and change the understanding of how, why, and where these figures most comfortably hold themselves. Placing the women in a setting where they have no forced prejudices and are allowed their own autonomy. The paintings are imagined scenarios using bright colors and separating worlds with tone, pigment, or mark. Each work tells a story of women in moments that are only dreams of a place in which the female figure was never personified as an object to anyone else but themselves.
Lewis is currently pursuing her MFA in Painting at Boston University, expected graduation in Summer 2022. She holds a BFA in Painting with minor in Art History from Wright State University, Dayton, Ohio. She has completed a Residency at Mount Gretna School of Art, Mount Gretna, Pennsylvania.

It's not easy washing an ancient giant tortoise, but an intrepid vet takes on the challenging task with a scrub brush in hand.
Jonathan gets a good scrubbing.
Meet Jonathan. He's a national treasure on St. Helena, a remote island in the Atlantic Ocean famous for hosting Napoleon Bonaparte during his exile starting in 1815. Jonathan is a Seychelles Giant Tortoise and his age is estimated at about 184 years.
Jonathan is not opposed to dragging himself into water or mud to keep cool, but, as far as anyone knows, he had never been given a human-powered bath until this month. Intrepid veterinarian Joe Hollins got out a scrub brush and went to work on Jonathan's shell.
The official St. Helena government YouTube channel released a video last week of the historic tortoise-washing event, which took place on March 19.
Hollins is St. Helena's only vet. He's in charge of Jonathan's care and regularly hand-feeds the oldster, whose ability to eat normally is declining.
The St. Helena tourism website describes Jonathan as "possibly the oldest living land creature in the world." There's a legend that Jonathan was in residence on St. Helena when Napoleon was kept in exile there, but that myth has been debunked. He's not quite that old, but he's close. He may have actually arrived at the island in 1882 at the ripe middle age of somewhere around 50.
Giant tortoises can weigh over 900 pounds (408 kilograms). That's a whole lot of reptile to scrub down. Hollins started at the rear of Jonathan's shell, squirted soap on it and went to town with a brush. Jonathan didn't hold still for the process, adding to the challenge.
Jonathan's spa experience left the tortoise looking not a day over 125.

Home SPORTS NBA Thompson: Stephen Curry stuns Boston with a roar and a historic efficiency
Thompson: Stephen Curry stuns Boston with a roar and a historic efficiency
BOSTON — It was a routine step-back 3-pointer, albeit his second in a row. It gave the Warriors a five-point lead. It got here with 2:03 left within the first quarter. Nothing about this sequence, and when it occurred, steered it was of particular significance.
Still, after watching his swish, and after the Celtics referred to as a timeout, Curry had one thing to say. He walked away from the Warriors' bench, all the best way to the opposite finish of the courtroom. Yelling. Flexing. Taunting. On the baseline close to the Boston bench, he roared into the ocean of inexperienced and white, as if he needed to tremble their souls. They say a tiger's roar is robust sufficient to paralyze its prey. Curry normally saves his demonstrative shows for the large moments, when the opponent is vanquished. But this night time, within the early phases of this must-win recreation for the Warriors, Curry wasn't celebrating a conquest. He was prepping it.
He pointed to the hallowed hardwood beneath his ft and declared the fact the Celtics are dealing with. They must take care of an all-time nice this night time. All night time.
"He wasn't letting us lose," Draymond Green stated.
That he didn't. Curry scored 43 factors on 14-for-26 capturing with 10 rebounds in a 107-97 win in Game 4. A Curry Classic on Causeway. He snatched home-court benefit from the clutches of the Celtics. Boston had an opportunity to take a commanding lead. But Curry flexed, and the Warriors head dwelling for Game 5 with an opportunity to take management of the sequence.
Curry's had some large Finals video games earlier than, opposite to in style narratives. In 2015, he scored 17 of his 37 within the fourth quarter of a pivotal Game 5, going bucket-for-bucket with LeBron James to take management of the sequence. In 2016, Game 4 on the street in Cleveland, with the wear and tear and tear of his sprained knee taking its toll, Curry scored 24 of his 38 within the second half to place the Warriors up 3-1 within the sequence. He totaled 47 factors, eight rebounds and 7 assists in Game 3 of the 2019 NBA Finals regardless of dealing with a box-and-one protection from the Raptors whereas Kevin Durant and Klay Thompson have been sidelined with accidents. Two video games later, Curry completed with 31 factors, eight rebounds and 7 assists in an enormous Game 5 win in Toronto to maintain the Warriors alive.
But what occurred Friday night time was a efficiency that vaults his legend. He left even his harshest critics with frayed vocal cords. Beneath the 17 championship banners hanging within the rafters of TD Garden, on the parquet flooring graced by legends like Kevin Garnett and Kobe Bryant, Curry confirmed the basketball world he's, certainly, him.
"The heart on that man is incredible," Klay Thompson stated.
Game 4 was the flashy exhibit typically essential for correct acclaim. It was the kind of monster efficiency anticipated from gamers of his ilk. But this recreation was however one other episode in his legacy of profitable. Coming out on prime so typically instructions a grittiness, requires a hero's resolve. His tremendous energy is capturing, however his biggest energy is his will to win.
His 43-point night time was born of certainly one of his biggest attributes. Sure, it was a clinic of capturing and ball-handling, however such have been secondary. The star was his indomitable will, a toughness that belies his body. His resilience can't be understated. His complete story is a case research in willpower. Friday night time was the most recent instance of his disregard for odds.
You wish to know why the Warriors have now received a street recreation in 27 consecutive sequence? Wardell Stephen Curry II. The Warriors have now received 39 street playoff street video games within the Steph Curry period. He's scored a minimum of 30 factors in 20 of them.
"I don't rank my performances," Curry stated. "Just win the game."
Nothing reveals fortitude within the NBA like profitable on the street. And Boston's intimidating venue requires a tenacious spirit. The Celtics followers had been cussin' out Green for 2 video games. They shouted spicy speech at Thompson, too, after he referred to as them "rude" and threw shade at their classiness. A retort was required. So the 6-foot-3 fella from Davidson performed the position of massive brother main the Warriors by way of the proverbial alley, darkened by Celtics' vitriol. He yelled again at them. And when the group began spewing profanity his manner, he responded with large baskets and scoring spurts.
Remember, he did this two days after a 6-foot-9, 240-pound man fell on his left foot, setting off one other damage watch because the world waited to see if he was damage.
Curry can't stand when his well being turns into the storyline, a posh born of his ankle troubles early in his years. But, in hindsight, his sore left foot tipped his hand. He was decided to play and to not discuss his foot. He needed all doubt about Game 4 on Boston's facet of the aisle.
"I could tell in his demeanor the last couple days," Green stated, "even after Game 3, that he was going to come out with that type of fire."
Remember, the Celtics offense is searching him. Curry can't conceal and relaxation on protection.
He has been the defender on 52 Boston discipline aim makes an attempt on this sequence, per NBA Stats. More than Smart and Jaylen Brown. Opponents are capturing 44.2 p.c towards Curry. After going 10 for 16 towards foul-plagued Curry in Game 3, the Celtics have been 4-for-11 when Curry defended in Game 4.
Remember, he did this towards the No. 1 protection within the league — which is greater and stronger at each place, and performs with a physicality that breaches boundaries and breaks spirits.
Curry has seen nearly each protection possible. He's been face-guarded the size of the courtroom, doubled 40 ft from the basket, trapped and blitzed. But the Celtics pose distinctive issues. Their smallest participant is the 2022 Defensive Player of The Year and he performs like his freedom is on the road. Marcus Smart is so good at what he does, and so persistently abrasive, he will get away with plenty of in any other case unlawful contact. The complete Boston protection has picked up on that recreation plan — get into Curry, do no matter it takes to remain linked, even when meaning holding when he's off the ball and hand-checking when he's on it. Plus, the Celtics have the benefit on Curry in girth, athleticism, energy and size. Yet, he battles by way of it, like he would've needed to if he performed in his father's day.
And look what he's doing towards this Celtics' protection on this sequence: 34.3 factors on 50 p.c capturing, together with 25 of 51 from 3.
"Just stunning," Steve Kerr stated. "The physicality out there is, you know, pretty dramatic. I mean, Boston's got obviously, the best defense in the league. Huge and powerful at every position. And for Steph to take that — that kind of pressure all game long and still be able to defend at the other end when they are coming at him shows you, I think, this is the strongest physically he's ever been in his career, and it's allowing him to do what he's doing."
Another large third quarter, his favourite, put the Warriors in place to return out of New England with renewed life.
He got here off a display screen going to his proper and drilled a 3 over Derrick White from the best wing, slicing the Celtics' result in 3. He got here off one other display screen going left, firing earlier than Robert Williams III may react and earlier than White may recuperate. The Celtics lead was all the way down to 1. Going left off a Gary Payton II display screen, he pulled up from 33 ft, abruptly sufficient for Jayson Tatum to run into the again of him. That one tied the sport. Then, in a play that will probably be a part of his archives, he drove and dished to the nook, then relocated to that very same nook, splashing one other 3 to place the Warriors forward by a degree.
"We were there," Smart stated. "He made a lot of the shots where we were contesting from behind. We had somebody there and he was just making them. That's what he does."
This put Kerr in a tricky spot. Curry was at 31 minutes, 28 seconds at the beginning of the fourth quarter. He usually sits for the primary six minutes of the quarter. That's been minimize to about 4 minutes within the playoffs. Last recreation, he needed to minimize it to only over two. That's as a result of the Celtics have dominated the fourth quarters. In Game 1, they owned the ultimate quarter 40-16. In Game 3, it was 23-11.
Curry was rolling and the Warriors wanted offense to stave off a pending Celtics rally. But Kerr caught along with his intestine. He doesn't like Curry over 40 minutes. There are diminishing returns. While the menace he's on the courtroom is useful, Kerr's experience on his famous person is aware of he's higher with even a brief relaxation. So he opened the fourth with Curry on the bench.
"He was not happy," Kerr stated. "I felt pretty good about where we were. The other night he played the whole fourth, and I didn't love the way that quarter went, not because of how he played, but I think we were in a pretty good spot. You know, to buy him a few minutes in that fourth quarter to start, I think to me was important. But you never know how it all plays out. You just kind of go with your gut."
The transfer didn't doom the Warriors. Boston led by as a lot as 5, however that solely arrange the cap to Curry's historic night time. The ball was in his fingers. The Celtics protection was scattered. His presence put strain on their offense to attain. It all colluded to interrupt Boston.
The Celtics led by two when Curry pushed it in transition. He drew three defenders, which left Thompson open for a 3 on the prime. The Warriors took the lead for good. The subsequent time down, Curry eluded Smart on a display screen and danced with Williams on the perimeter. A sequence of crossovers led to a straightforward 12-foot floater.
Then with simply inside two minutes left, Green led a quick break. He received stopped at in regards to the free throw line. But he knew precisely the place to go. All the eye was on him, as he had the ball. It was sufficient for Curry to get free from White for a cut up second. He stepped right into a Green bounce cross, gave slightly jab, and ratted dwelling the dagger 3.
Then after the Celtics referred to as a timeout, their hopes crushed and dealing with the fact of a protracted sequence, it was lastly time to have fun the conquest. He flexed. He pounded his chest. He taunted. Curry waded into the mystique of the Celtics — as did Kobe Bryant earlier than him, and Magic Johnson, and Dr. J — and made the form of assertion legends make. He is him.
