Eat Like a Rock Star During Festival d'ete de Quebec
Chelsea DavisContributor
I cover food, drink & travel—in other words, all the fun stuff!
Parc De La Francophonie
André Olivier Lyra
With over 325,00 attendees, it's one of the biggest music festivals in North America and yet the Festival d'ete de Québec still flies under the radar for most Americans. In fact, only 10% of festival attendees are from the US. Here are a few reasons why that's crazy. For starters, FEQ is older than Woodstock. It all began in 1968 by a pharmacist who pulled together a few businessmen and artists with the intent to highlight local artists.
And unlike the majority of major concerts in the U.S., FEQ isn't exorbitantly priced. The cost of the entire 11 day festival is about $80 USD. Did I mention the pass is transferable?
In the past, FEQ has featured artists including The Rolling Stones, Lady Gaga, Bon Jovi, Sheryl Crow, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Foo Fighters, The Killers, Metallica The Who, KISS, among others.
This year's headliners? Mariah Carey, Chvrches, alt-J, Twenty One Pilots, Imagine Dragons, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Blink-182 and more. Over 250 performances take place in ten venues, including the Bell Stage on the Plains of Abraham. This is the biggest outdoor stage in North America, holding up to 80,000 spectators. Moreover, it's casually located on a historic battlefield, the site of a 1759 battle. NBD.
Obviously, the main draw of the festival is the music. That said the festival is one you don't want to miss for plenty of reasons. It's situated in a special area of the city where historic Québec meets urban, modernized Québec. Meaning, it's a super safe, charming and walkable area of the city where you can explore attractions and historical sites within the walled city of Old Quebec, a UNESCO World Heritage site, in between rocking out at the stages.
Plains Of Abraham
And kicker? The food.
Forbes chatted with Frédéric Cyr, Culinary Director, Fairmont Le Chateau Frontenac, the chef in charge of catering for FEQ on menu inspiration, must-eat items and things you shouldn't miss in the city!
What is the inspiration for the menus that will be created?
First, I must say that it's an honor to be taking part in the Festival d'ete de Québec, and to welcome people from all over the world. It's such a unique opportunity to showcase our food and culture here in Quebec City as part of this iconic event.
As for the food, we're going to be feeding many performers over the course of 11 days, so FEQ becomes the "land of special requests." We need to have every option such as vegan, gluten free, keto... and any other food trend that's currently in fashion. At the same time, we find that there's a desire for comfort food. Many of these artists are traveling far from home, often for extended trips, and so we try to give them food that's familiar and makes them feel good. We'll have barbecue, grilled meats and fish, Asian dishes, sushi and more.
What are some of the foods that guests should try while at the festival?
There's so much great food everywhere, but if you want some of Québec favorites, I'd say poutine, pouding chomeur which is a moist vanilla cake cooked in maple sauce, duck confit and French tartare.
What are some of the things to enjoy in Québec City any time of year?
Québec City is a great year round destination. For music lovers, the Imperial Bell, one of the venues at the Festival d'été de Québec, puts on shows throughout the year and often showcases artists who performed at the FEQ, or will be part of next year's lineup.
There's an amazing restaurant scene. Sip an artisan craft beer, check out some of the great mixologists and cocktails, enjoy music in the park, stroll through the Old City, take a walk along the promenade Champlain, and check out the new Pavillon Lassonde at the Musee National des Beaux-Arts.
Now that you know what you're getting yourself in to, below is the ultimate rundown of what you need to be eating while at FEQ!
At FEQ there will be a huge selection of cuisine to choose from ranging classic poutine to American style burgers to poke bowls.
Check out the below for what food trucks are where and what they will be serving!
Plains of Abraham – Bell Stage

The Cleveland National Forest Foundation (CNFF) released it 50-10 Transit Plan in 2011 as an alternative to SANDAG's highway-focused 2050 Regional Transportation Plan.
The 50-10 Transit Plan calls for a new framework of public transit infrastructure to meet the region's economic, lifestyle and mobility demands.
The premise of the 50-10 Transit Plan is quite simple – move the transit projects in SANDAG's 2050 RTP and build them up front in ten years. This comprehensive, integrated transit system would initially be focused within the region's urban core, where existing and future higher density land uses would best complement the expanded transit services - thus making biking, walking and transit competitive with the automobile.
It underscores the need to modify SANDAG's plans to reflect transit priority over highway projects.. The cornerstone of the plan is more near-term promotion of land use patterns to increase residential development densities within the urban core. The creation of neighborhoods that are close to needed services and amenities would be the outcome.
Transit Mode Share Map: The only way to reduce greenhouse gas emissions is to activate the transit mode shares as depicted in this authoritative study.
Settlement Agreement:SANDAG signed a settlement agreement for the precise purpose of mitigating the enormous climate change impacts expected to result from its flawed transportation planning. As the former Attorney General Brown and SOFAR had pointed out, SANDAG's Regional Transportation Plan serves to promote urban sprawl in San Diego County's rural areas and to encourage a transportation system committed to the automobile.
San Diego Infill Study: Almost all cities in San Diego County have substantially more residential capacity than demand by 2030, even with the additional allocation of units from the County. Removing 47,500 units from the County and redirecting them to cities still leaves the cities of the County with 158,000 units of residential capacity for future growth beyond 2030.

Paying More for Made-in-the-USA - That's Not American
Americans want to buy American, right?
So, we've been debating the plight of American manufacturing for years, but unfortunately the issue is more complex than we often think it is, or than we wish it were.
While its underpinnings are a complicated web of cost calculations, the made-in-America argument also has a consumer side to it. Our appetite for cheap goods means that America buys a lot of stuff that's made elsewhere and in order to tip the scales in our favor, we need to be willing to consider items produced domestically, even if it means the price point is a bit higher.
Because, in the end, Americans want to buy American, right? One company is putting this concept to the test – and not just to prove a point.
You may remember American Apparel, the Los Angeles based retailer that faced many scandals over its lifetime before drifting into bankruptcy and being purchased earlier this year by Canadian based apparel company Gildan Activewear.
After merging the two companies, Gildan has tried to integrate the American Apparel brand into its wholesales and e-commerce business, but wants to cater to two types of customers – those who wish to stay true to the American Apparel brand and buy made-in-the-USA goods, and the other customers who just wish to buy Gildan branded products, which are produced elsewhere. So according to Bloomberg, shoppers have the option to click one of two options: made in the USA or produced overseas. But the catch here is that the made-in-USA option will cost the buyer up to 25 percent more.
It's likely we'll learn nothing from this – Gildan probably won't share the results and if they did, they may not be relevant – American Apparel has brand power, and perhaps its buyers don't see those products as apples-to-apples with Gildan activewear.
Whatever the results, we do know the deck is actually stacked against made-in-the-USA consumer goods because Americans are actually unlikely to spend more money on something that's made-in-the-USA. According to an AP poll conducted last year, when offered the choice between a pair of $87 jeans made in America and a pair of $50 jeans made elsewhere, two-thirds of respondents said they'd buy the lower priced jeans.
In fact, even people in households earning more than $100,000 a year were no more likely to spring for the higher priced jeans.

Customer service is a gold mine for product feedback.
But information collected by customer service teams is often underutilized by product teams.
By leveraging data, customer service teams can pinpoint problematic product areas and help product teams dramatically improve the customer experience.
With the right approach, customer service and product teams can work together to create a fruitful symbiotic relationship that benefits both parties.
So, what steps should a customer service team take to identify problematic areas and relay their findings to a product team?
The first step in gathering product feedback is finding out the source of customers' problems. Analyze customer service metrics to quantify the impacts of product issues.
Ask yourself: Why are customer submitting cases?
Look for: Product areas with the most case submissions.
This tells you: Which product areas customers have problems with most frequently.
Ask yourself: Why do customers have to expend effort?
Look for: Product areas with the highest number of average activities per resolution.
This tells you: Which product areas customers have problems with that require back and forth communication with customer service.
Once you've pinpointed product areas that are causing problems for customers, it's time to find out what's slowing down your team.
Ask yourself: Which problems aren't easily resolved?
Look for: Product areas with low first contact resolution rates.
This tells you: Which product areas your team rarely resolves in one touch.
Ask yourself: Which problems take the longest to resolve?
Look for: Product areas that spend the longest time in the Open Stage.
This tells you: Which product areas take up a lot of your team's time.
So you've discovered problematic product areas and quantified the impacts they have on customers and your team – now what? It's time to relay your findings to the product team.
Share reports with the product team to help them fully understand the scope of product issues. This will put things into perspective for them.
Remind the product team that you're helping each other out. You're giving them feedback that will help improve the product. And the better the product, the less work your service team has to do. It's symbiosis at its finest.
Build an ongoing relationship to continuously refine your product and improve the customer experience. Setup automatic weekly reports to share relevant metrics and be sure to meet in person monthly, or at least quarterly. Together, you have the power to make life markedly easier for your team and your customers.
Don't let your customer service data go to waste. Take advantage of the valuable information that's sitting right in front of you – it will pay dividends for your business in the long run.

Known Hazards All parts of the plant are poisonous[1, 4, 19, 62]. It contains toxic cardioactive glycosides.
Habitats Gravelly or sandy soil, mainly near streams. A common weed of cultivated land, usually found in shady or moist places.
Apocynum cannabinum is a PERENNIAL growing to 0.6 m (2ft) by 1 m (3ft 3in).
It is hardy to zone (UK) 4. It is in flower from July to August. The species is hermaphrodite (has both male and female organs) and is pollinated by Lepidoptera (Moths & Butterflies).
Seed - raw or cooked. It can be ground into a powder and used as a meal. A latex obtained from the plant is used as a chewing gum[61, 94, 177]. After the latex has been squeezed from the plant it s allowed to stand overnight to harden into a white gum. The latex was sometimes mixed with clean clay.
Indian hemp is an unpleasantly bitter stimulant irritant herb that acts on the heart, respiratory and urinary systems, and also on the uterus. It was much employed by various native North American Indian tribes who used it to treat a wide variety of complaints including rheumatism, coughs, pox, whooping cough, asthma, internal parasites, diarrhoea and also to increase milk flow in lactating mothers. The plant is still used in modern herbalism, but it should be used with great caution, and only under the supervision of a qualified practitioner if taken internally[[4, 222, 238]. See the notes above on toxicity[4, 222]. The root is cardiotonic, diaphoretic, diuretic, emetic and expectorant[4, 46, 61, 94, 238]. It is harvested in the autumn and dried for later use. The fresh root is the most active part medicinally. It has been used in the treatment of syphilis and as a tonic. A weak tea made from the dried root has been used for cardiac diseases[207, 222]. A tea made from the root has been used as a vermifuge. The milky sap is a folk remedy for venereal warts.
A very good quality fibre obtained from the bark is used for making clothes, twine, bags, linen, paper etc[1, 46, 61, 92, 94, 95, 189, 257]. It is about 12 - 18mm long. Very strong, it is used as a flax substitute, it does not shrink and it retains its strength in water. The fibre is produced late in the season, it can be harvested after the leaves fall in autumn but is probably at its best as the seed pods are forming. When making paper, the stems can be retted by leaving them in the ground until they are dry in the winter or they can be harvested in late summer, the leaves removed and the stems steamed to remove the fibre. The stems are then cooked for two hours with lye and pounded with mallets. The plant yields a latex which is a possible source of rubber[46, 61, 177]. The latex is also used as a chewing gum. Carbon Farming - Industrial Crop: hydrocarbon, fiber. The dogbane-milkweed family Asclepias, Apocynum, Calotropis, and Trachomitum spp) has been used for fiber industrial crops for millennia with a number in cultivation as regional crops. All of these crops are dual-purpose fibres, offering bast fibres from the stem and seed fiber or 'floss' in the fruit pods. Many have also been identified as potential hydrocarbon crops due to high latex content. Could be integrated into various agroforestry systems rather than as monocultures [1-1].
Industrial Crop: Fiber; Industrial Crop: Hydrocarbon; Management: Hay; Minor Global Crop.
Succeeds in sun or shade in most well-drained moist soils[169, 238]. Plants can be invasive. The young shoots of this plant are extremely attractive to slugs[K]. Carbon Farming - Cultivation: minor global crop. Management: hay.
Seed - best sown as soon as it is ripe in late summer and overwintered outdoors. The seed requires a period of cold stratification if it is to germinate well. Prick out the seedlings when large enough to handle and grow them on in a cold frame for their first winter, planting out in late spring of the following year[K]. Division in spring just before active growth begins. Plants can also be divided in the autumn.
This plant can be weedy or invasive growing from spreading roots.


A cannabis like substance produced by the brain may dampen delusional or psychotic experiences, rather than trigger them.
Heavy cannabis use has been linked to psychosis in the past, leading researchers to look for a connection between the brain's natural cannabinoid system and schizophrenia. Sure enough, when Markus Leweke of the University of Cologne, Germany, and Andrea Giuffrida and Danielle Piomelli of the University of California, Irvine, looked at levels of the natural cannabis-like substance anandamide, they were higher in people with schizophrenia than in healthy controls.
The team measured levels of anandamide in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of 47 people suffering their first bout of schizophrenia, but who had not yet taken any drugs for it, and 26 people who had symptoms of psychosis and have a high risk of schizophrenia. Compared with 84 healthy volunteers, levels were six times as high in people with symptoms of psychosis and eight times as high in those with schizophrenia.
"This is a massive increase in anandamide levels," Leweke told the National Cannabis and Mental Illness Conference in Melbourne, Australia, last week. And that is just in the CSF. Levels could be a hundred times higher in the synapses, where nerve signalling is taking place, he says.
But were the high anandamide levels triggering the psychotic symptoms or a response to them? Leweke and his colleagues found, to their surprise, that the more severe people's schizophrenia was the lower their anandamide levels. The team's theory is that rather than triggering psychosis, the substance is released in response to psychotic symptoms to help control them. People with the worst symptoms might be unable to produce sufficient anandamide to prevent them.
At some point in their lives, between 5 and 30 per cent of healthy people have had symptoms such as delusions or hallucinations, which can be triggered by something as simple as sleep deprivation. "All of us are potentially psychotic," says David Castle of the University of Melbourne.
So for the body to have a system that prevents these experiences getting out of hand makes sense, he says. The new findings suggest antipsychotic drugs could be developed that target the anandamide system, but it will not be simple. The active ingredient in cannabis, THC, binds to anandamide receptors. But people with schizophrenia who use cannabis actually have more severe and frequent psychotic episodes than those who do not.
This may be because THC makes anandamide receptors less sensitive. Leweke's team also found anandamide levels lowest in people with schizophrenia who used cannabis more frequently, suggesting it may disrupt the system in other ways too.

Spanish police seized 900 kilograms (nearly 2,000 pounds) of cocaine in rucksacks found floating in the sea and fitted with tracking devices, officials said Monday.
"The cocaine was hidden inside 37 rucksacks that had been anchored with a sophisticated flotation and tracking system so that they could later be picked up from the sea," a police statement said.
Officers arrested five Spaniards in raids on a gang suspected of trafficking the drugs and money-laundering in the cities of Valencia and Malaga, the statement added.
Police believe the drugs were destined for the Costa del Sol, a southern region of beaches around Malaga that is popular with foreign tourists.
Police did not say how much the drugs were worth. They also seized 72,000 euros ($97,000) in cash as well as jewellery, luxury watches, vehicles and a boat.
The hiding of the drugs in waters off a beach in the eastern city of Valencia was the latest in a series of increasingly creative ruses by traffickers.
Police in Spain have reported finding drugs hidden under smugglers' wigs and inside their bodies in breast implants, as well as in cargos such as bananas, roses and cakes.
In December, they caught a fugitive Colombian vet who tried to smuggle liquid heroin by surgically implanting plastic bags of the drug into live puppies. In that case the drugs were intended for the United States.
Spain is one of the main points of entry for cocaine into Europe from its former colonies in Latin America.
In 2012 overall, Spanish authorities said they seized 20 tonnes of cocaine, which equalled more than 40 per cent of the total seized in Europe that year.

Quintana: I told the team I was in difficulty before the Tourmalet

The fallout from the breakdown in communications between Nairo Quintana and the rest of his Movistar team in the Pyrenees continued during the second rest day of the Tour de France, with the two riders holding separate press conferences, one after the other.
Movistar come to the fore on first major Tour de France climbs
Tour de France: Movistar waiting for Pau time trial in upbeat mood for Quintana
Tour de France: Movistar miscues sink Quintana's GC bid
For the last two days, race observers have been scratching their heads over why Movistar continued to drive hard on the Col du Tourmalet on Saturday's stage 14 despite Quintana, their GC leader, having a tough time and cracking.
Various members of the team have insisted that Quintana did not communicate that he was not going well on the climb, a claim repeated by Alejandro Valverde during Monday's press conference. Shortly afterwards, Quintana explained that he tacitly accepted what was a mid-stage team decision to work for Mikel Landa rather than continue to defend his own position on GC.
Quintana added that he had told the team he was not having a good day on the preceding Col du Soulor, where Movistar had already begun working hard. Nonetheless, Movistar proceeded to open up the throttle again on the Tourmalet. Quintana said that well before the team reached the Tourmalet, the decision had effectively been taken to work for Landa.
"On the Soulor I told them to take things calmly, tranquilo, tranquilo, when Andrey [Amador] was going hard, because I was going through a difficult moment," Quintana said.
"But Mikel was going well, and he wanted the team to go on driving and the other rivals were suffering."
Quintana explained he had opted to step aside to let Landa have his best chance, noting that he did not want to hinder the Basque's 'moment.'
"I don't like it when 'my moment' gets fucked up," Quintana said, making virtual quotation marks with his fingers around the phrase 'my moment' to indicate that he was referring to a hypothetical situations when he is on the attack himself.
"Then when we hit the Tourmalet I was just defending myself as best I could."
As for his own GC chances, Quintana said that, "the crash I had [on stage 10] has fouled things up for me. I tried yesterday. From now on, I'll be working for Landa. We didn't get that much of a reward for all the work we did yesterday, but we'll keep on trying."
Quintana went on the offensive early on stage 15, but when Landa attacked and passed him on the final climb to Prat d'Albis, there was a notable lack of communication or even a gesture of support between the two teammates. Instead, it looked like each rider was in their own race, as Landa powered on to try and pull back Simon Yates (Mitchelton-Scott), with the Basque saying later "It's a pity he couldn't work for me for a couple of kilometres."
Asked by a Spanish journalist if his failure to do more when Landa passed by was indicative of Quintana's status as a champion, not someone used to working for other riders, Quintana answered: "No, it wasn't that. I'd have liked to have helped him, but he shot past, and you could see that I fell back pretty soon after."
Asked by another member of the Spanish media why he had not, at least, given Landa a bidon or made a gesture of support, Quintana indirectly answered the question by saying: "He turned up very suddenly, and AG2R were working hard at the front. I couldn't do anything to go with them."
Quintana's comments seemed to explain, at least partially, why the team continued to drive on the Tourmalet. But on a day when each Movistar rider gave a separate press conference, one after the other, his comments contrasted sharply with those made previously by Valverde, who said the team's gung-ho attitude on the Tourmalet was centred on Quintana, not Landa. If that was not the case, it seemed, nobody had yet told Valverde.
"It was disappointing, because Nairo wasn't at the level he should have been, while the team performed at 10 out of 10," Valverde said. "We did a great job, but we didn't know what was happening to him. So we did what we'd agreed.
"Yesterday things went a lot better, Mikel got back time and I was up there with the favourites. That gives us a lot of faith, particularly with the hard stages coming up. We all know how strong Mikel can be in the third week and we have to continue with our hard work."
Performing as consistently as ever when at his best, and eighth overall, Valverde was clearly in a good mood, saying: "I'm not surprised so much by how I'm racing at 2,000 metres or higher above sea level [traditionally his weak point – ed.] as much as by how, at 39, I'm still able to race with the top guys."
On the subject of Quintana and the Tourmalet and the breakdown in communications, Valverde was not so cheery, saying: "the only mistake [on the Tourmalet] was that Nairo didn't say anything. As I said on that day, you'll have to ask him why. If he had said something, then why would we go on working? As soon as he got dropped, we stopped working and you could see that clearly."
As for how the 'Nairo factor' could play in Landa's favour, Valverde said bluntly, "let's hope the 'Nairo factor' is there and we can really use it in important situations. That's what we'd all like, Nairo's a very good rider and with all his knowledge and experience, he could be very useful for the team."
As for Quintana's lack of visible support for Landa on stage 15, Valverde said: "We're all on the limit. When Mikel passed Nairo and he didn't do anything, I hope that was because he couldn't do any more. And I hope the same went with me when I went past him. If he didn't do any more, I hope it was because he couldn't."

"There are countless route options and even methods of travel with which a trip across southern Utah can be put together. One day on paved roads or two months exploring every spur, the sky isn't even the limit if you consider remote landing strips. Thinking about spending two months reminds me when while at an REI store years ago I listened to a presentation by folks who nearly crossed all of southern Utah by foot while avoiding roads of any kind as much as possible.
The ideal traverse will vary greatly depending on who you talk to. For those here on Expedition Utah it's safe to say the ideal vehicle dependent route avoids pavement by rule and escapes crowds often while taking the traveler across Utah's most wild and beautiful desert and mountain landscape. Some of the most ideal segments unfortunately have been closed to vehicular travel. Although this trip may pale in comparison to proper expeditions conducted regularly around the globe it was truly an epic trip for us…" Read more about this trip and see a route sketch HERE.
The "Utah Traverse" proper route first popped up on ExpeditionUtah in 2008 at the hands of forum member and long-time Southern Utah traveler Sinuhe Xavier. You can read more about his thought process and planning behind the Utah Traverse HERE.
The Utah Cruiser Expedition group (many of which ended up here on ExpeditionUtah) planned and completed a similar route in the Fall of 2005, their trip was featured in the November/December 2005 issue of the Toyota Trails magazine and can be seen HERE. The group has since gone on to tackle the Utah Inverse (North-South across Utah) and the ultimate route, the Utah Converse. The Utah Converse treks from 4-Corners UT/CO/NM/AZ to 3-Corners UT/ID/NV, utilizing primarily off-road routes to converse the state east-to-west as well as south-to-north.
Covering such an unique and remote portion of Utah inspired countless others to plan their own Utah Traverse and make their way across some of Utah's most idyllic terrain. Check out the many trip reports found on the Utah Traverse below.

$wingin' Utter$/UK Subs split è un EP split tra le punk rock band statunitensi $wingin' Utter$ ed UK Subs pubblicato nel 1995.

Tracce

7"


The early 1990s Norwegian black metal scene produced influential music that is as gripping and gruesome as this tragicomic biopic, based on the cult non-fiction book subtitled "The Bloody Rise of the Satanic Metal Underground." Swedish filmmaker Jonas Åkerlund (former drummer for Bathory, pioneers of the genre) recreates the notorious rise-and-fall of the band Mayhem, whose prominence in black-metal history includes suicide, arson, and murder. But at its core, this gnarly anti-bromance is about the toxic rivalry between dark oddballs Euronymous (Rory Culkin) and Varg (Emory Cohen), with ironic laughs among the stabbings.
Short Before the Feature: Outta My Head // Chloe Pacheco :: Experimental film about a girl coming to terms with her inner self.
Renowned Swedish director Jonas Åkerlund has made his mark with his distinctive storytelling and visually driven signature style that often pushes the boundaries of the status quo. He is an internationally awarded director of music videos, commercials, documentaries, concert films, stage shows, and feature films.

Q: Как передать данные переменной из CollectionCell на ViewController? Я новичок в swift, пишу свой пет проект и столкнулся со следующей проблемой. У меня есть контроллер (PlayerNamesController) и ячейка коллекции (PlayersCell), в контроллере есть массив (playerNames), который должен наполняться значениями. В файле ячейки есть метод textFieldDidEndEditing, который следит за тем, обновилось ли значение в текстовом поле или нет (есть Collection, в котором есть textField), если оно обновилось, то новое значение записывается в переменную name. Я хочу сделать так, чтобы в методе textFieldDidEndEditing (т.е при каждом изменении) была строчка, которая добавляет в массив playerNames (который находится в контроллере PlayerNamesController) значение переменной name. Вот код в контроллере и ячейке.

Russian Shipyard Not Yet Considering Delivery Delay Over COVID-19
April 2, 2020 April 2, 2020 - by Derek Bisaccio
Project 636.3 Improved Kilo submarine Novorossiysk – Russian Ministry of Defense
Admiralty Shipyards, located in St. Petersburg, Russia, says it is not yet considering the postponement of deliveries to the Russian Navy over government quarantine measures.
In a statement on Thursday, the press service of the shipyard referred to such a postponement as "premature" for the time being. Russia recently enacted a week off from work, with the exception of certain personnel, for most businesses and is moving to implement more stricter lockdown measures in an effort to contain the spread of the novel coronavirus.
The shipyard is producing a number of submarines for the Russian Navy that are slated to enter service in the upcoming years. For the Pacific Fleet, Admiralty Shipyards is producing six Project 636.3 submarines, the first of which was commissioned into the fleet in November. Another one is supposed to enter service late this year, while the other submarines in the order should be delivered from 2021 to 2022. Further submarines in the class may be laid down for the Baltic Fleet as early as this year.
Admiralty Shipyards is also in the process of producing a pair of Project 677 submarines for the Navy.
Globally, nearly one million cases of COVID-19 have been reported, according to a tally kept by Johns Hopkins University, though experts believe the true number of cases may be much higher due to low levels of testing. In Russia, over 3,500 cases have been reported, with a few dozen deaths.
As governments have worked to respond to the virus, through quarantine measures as well as repurposing some production lines to manufacture medical equipment, it is expected that economic growth across the world will dip in 2020.

A ship in the harbor is safe, but this is not what ships are built for. They have important work to do, and adventure and discovery awaits out on the open seas. The same is true for Dalat International School students!
As we begin this new school year, open a new high school building, and trim our sails for uncharted territories, we've established the theme of Setting Sail around a new set of student goals that we are calling "Flagships".
Our purpose at Dalat International School is to prepare students to live their lives boldy and courageously, fully prepared and equipped for success. While our students are still in the harbor of Dalat, we will challenge them to learn, try new things, sometimes fail, and then try again. Dalat also seeks to equip students with the anchor (relationship with God) that they will need for each encounter, trial, and storm that will come their way.
If you would like to learn more about our Flagships and Student Outcome Statements, (SOS) head to our Missions and Goals Page.
The school theme will be talked about and worked through in the classroom with students and teachers. The Head of School will discuss the "Setting Sail" in Dalat News and throughout the year with parents.

El grupo Hijas de Bilitis (en inglés:Daughters of Bilitis (DOB) es considerado como la primera asociación defensora de los derechos de las lesbianas en Estados Unidos. Se formó en 1955 en San Francisco (California). El grupo se concibió como una alternativa social a los bares de lesbianas, que eran ilegales y por lo tanto sujetos a asaltos y acoso policiales. Las fundadoras afirman que no conocían la existencia de las organizaciones homófilas masculinas, como la Mattachine Society, cuando establecieron la organización en 1955.

DOB mantuvo su influencia en las décadas de 1950 y 1960, pero se disolvió debido a tensiones internas en la década de 1970. Sus miembros se enfrentaron a raíz de la necesidad de apoyar el movimiento gay o el feminismo. Uno de los capítulos locales de DOB todavía sobrevivía en Cambridge en 1992.

«Daughters» («hijas») buscaba evocar la similitud con otras organizaciones de «hermanas», como Daughters of the American Revolution, Daughters of the Republic of Texas y United Daughters of the Confederacy. «Bilitis» es el nombre dado a una lesbiana ficticia contemporánea de Safo creada por el poeta francés Pierre Louÿs en su obra Canciones de Bilitis de 1894.

Capítulos locales
En su momento de mayor extensión, DOB tenía capítulos locales en todos los EE. UU. y Australia. Los capítulos estadounidenses se encontraban en ciudades como Nueva York, Los Ángeles, Nueva Jersey, Detroit, Chicago, Reno, Filadelfia, Cambridge y Boston.

Miembros famosos
Muchas lesbianas y feministas famosas fueron miembros y dirigentes de los capítulos locales de DOB. Entre ellas:

 Ti-Grace Atkinson, miembro del capítulo de Nueva York (DOB NY), escritora y fundadora de The Feminists.
 Edith Eyde, fundadora de Vice Versa
 Barbara Gittings, fundadora y primera presidenta de DOB NY
 Lorraine Hansberry, escritora para The Ladder, dramaturga
 Del Martin y Phyllis Lyon, fundadoras de Daughters of Bilitis y autoras
 Ellen Povill, miembro de DOB NY
 Ruth Simpson, presidente de DOB NY, fundadora del primer centro comunitario para lesbianas, autora del libro From the Closet to the Courts
 Kay Lahusen, miembro de DOB NY, autora de The Gay Crusaders
 Marion Zimmer Bradley, miembro, autora

Publicaciones
La publicación regular de DOB se llamaba The Ladder, que se comenzó a publicar en 1956 con ayuda de ONE, Inc. y la Mattachine Society, con quienes DOB mantenía relaciones cordiales. En 1970 las listas de direcciones y las instalaciones para la publicación fueron tomadas y trasladadas por feministas separatistas. Como consecuencia, la revista dejó de publicarse en 1972.

El nombre de la revista es una referencia a la novela The Well of Loneliness (El pozo de la soledad), que profundiza en la alienación y la desesperación de muchas lesbianas. A pesar del anonimato de las colaboradoras, tanto fijas como esporádicas, y la publicación irregular, la revista debía servir figuradamente como escalera para salir del pozo.

Though the islands of its northern neighbour Thailand may be more famous, Malaysia's hundreds of islands are certainly just as pretty. These islands are less busy than those across the border and also easily accessible. Relax on a tropical beach, explore the rainforest, soak up the culture of colonial towns, breathe in clean mountain air and snorkel among beautiful coral: Malaysia's islands offer all this and more.
Malaysia has 878 islands, ranging from the inhabited and accessible to the lonely and remote. Along the west coast of the peninsula you can find the popular island of Langkawi, with tropical beaches and luxurious resorts, and also the island of Penang, with colonial architecture and pristine rainforest. The Perhentian Islands on the east coast offer inexpensive accommodations and a relaxed atmosphere. All of this within a few hours from Kuala Lumpur!
Langkawi is the quintessential tropical island with a turquoise ocean, swaying palm trees and white sandy beaches. Locals make a living catching fish, planting rubber and growing rice. Tourism is also an important source of income – after Penang this is the most popular island of Malaysia. Most visitors never venture out into the mountainous interior, overgrown with dense tropical rainforest and full of waterfalls, monkeys and monitor lizards. They travel here to relax in one of the super deluxe beach resorts, such as the Bon Ton with 8 exclusive guest villas, or the Four Seasons with its infinity pool and spa.
Two islands for the price of one: Perhentian Besar and Perhentian Kecil are located on the east coast of the Malaysian peninsula, just below Thailand. These 2 islands are bathed by the crystal blue South China Sea and offer great diving and snorkelling spots that are mostly accessible from the beach. While the former island, 'Big Perhentian', attracts mostly families, 'Small Perhentian' is popular among backpackers. The islands have a wonderfully relaxed atmosphere, beautiful white sandy beaches and affordable hotels and guesthouses. However, do note that most places are closed during the monsoon season (October-March).
The turtle-shaped island of Penang is also known as 'The Pearl of the Orient'. This is no exaggeration: the British-colonial architecture has earned capital Georgetown a UNESCO World Heritage site designation. Stroll through the fragrant markets and visit the colourful temples; Penang also has some of the best cuisine in Malaysia. The east coast is densely populated, but the west coast is much less busy. The entire north-west corner has just been preserved into Malaysia's newest national park with a tropical rainforest and the largest Buddhist temple in the country. Take a trip in a cable car to the top of Penang Hill or enjoy the beautiful unspoiled beaches.

VIENNA — Extra time granted in a lawsuit over the state's plan to close a central Illinois prison may keep the facility open a little longer.
The American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees says the state requested and got until Jan. 5 to prepare for a hearing in a union lawsuit. The hearing had been scheduled for Monday.
A Johnson County judge had ordered the Department of Corrections to stop moving inmates out of the Pontiac Correctional Center until the lawsuit's resolved. The union says prisoners are moving to lockups that can't handle them.
Union spokesman Anders Lindall says the delay should give the state time to reconsider.
Corrections spokesman Derek Schnapp referred questions to the attorney general's office, which represents the agency. It didn't immediately respond.

Q: The regular expression doesn't work equal in different code even being the same input I'm creating a code, a part of this code uses a regular expression which is:

var ex = "122", checker = /(\d)\1{1,}/g,
    c = pattern.test(+ex);
if(c) console.log(`works.`);

My goal is to check if there is a repeated number.
The problem arises when I use the above snippet in a larger section of code. I have the same input at the above snippet, but in the below code, the regex isnt work
Here is the code:

function almostIncreasingSequence(sequence) {
    var clone = [].concat(sequence),
        l = clone.length,
        pattern = /(\d)\1{2,}/ig;
    if (pattern.test(clone)) {
        return false;
    }

    var sorted = sequence.splice(0).sort(function(a, b) {
            return a - b;
        }),
        element, finder, checker = /(\d)\1{1,}/g;

    for (var i = 0; i < l; ++i) {
        element = clone[i];
        finder = sorted.indexOf(element);
        clone.splice(i, 1);
        sorted.splice(finder, 1);
        if (clone.join("") === sorted.join("") && !checker.test(+clone.join(""))) {
            /*
            In the conditional above, i use the regex
            */
            console.log(`
            Same input: ${+clone.join("")}

            PD: This message, it should not be shown, since the conditional should not have been true,
            `);
            return true;
        } else {
            clone.splice(i, 0, element);
            sorted.splice(finder, 0, element);
        }
    }
    return false;
}
console.log(almostIncreasingSequence([1, 2, 1, 2]))

So in the first snippet code, the regex return true, but in the second snippet code, or the regex is bad or the negation isn't works, because i'm negating the result of regex, because the regex in the second snippet code have the same input as the first, so the negation of true is false .

A: The issue is that you are using /g in your Regexp - when this is used, and the regex is executed multiple times, it will always begin where it left off last time.
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/RegExp/lastIndex

This property is set only if the regular expression instance used the "g" flag to indicate a global search. The following rules apply:
If lastIndex is greater than the length of the string, test() and exec() fail, then lastIndex is set to 0.
If lastIndex is equal to the length of the string and if the regular expression matches the empty string, then the regular expression matches input starting at lastIndex.
If lastIndex is equal to the length of the string and if the regular expression does not match the empty string, then the regular expression mismatches input, and lastIndex is reset to 0.
Otherwise, lastIndex is set to the next position following the most recent match.

You can see this is happening by logging checker.lastIndex before you do checker.test, and you will see that when it fails, lastIndex is not 0.

function almostIncreasingSequence(sequence) {
    var clone = [].concat(sequence),
        l = clone.length,
        pattern = /(\d)\1{2,}/ig;
    if (pattern.test(clone)) {
        return false;
    }

    var sorted = sequence.splice(0).sort(function(a, b) {
            return a - b;
        }),
        element, finder, checker = /(\d)\1{1,}/g;

    for (var i = 0; i < l; ++i) {
        element = clone[i];
        finder = sorted.indexOf(element);
        clone.splice(i, 1);
        sorted.splice(finder, 1);
        console.log(checker.lastIndex)
        if (clone.join("") === sorted.join("") && !checker.test(+clone.join(""))) {
            /*
            checker.test(+clone.join("")) <-- HERE IS THE REGEX
            */
            console.log( `The number is ${+clone.join("")}
  and the regex return: ${checker.test(+clone.join(""))},
  so, if the regex return true, the negation operator, isnt work ? because im negating the returned value from the regex !checker.test
  `); // FALSE ? Why... ??
            return true;
        } else {
            clone.splice(i, 0, element);
            sorted.splice(finder, 0, element);
        }
    }
    return false;
}
console.log(almostIncreasingSequence([1, 2, 1, 2]))

Or, to use your first "working" code:

var ex = "122", checker = /(\d)\1{1,}/g,
    c = checker.test(+ex);
if(c) console.log(`works.`);
c = checker.test(+ex);
if(c) console.log(`works.`);

And it will only print works once, because you are checking it more than once and it has a /g on the Regexp.

A: Edit: sort list and return only incremental values without using regex:

function almostIncreasingSequence (array) {
  return Array.from(array)
    .sort()
    .reduce(function(acc, cur, i, arr) {
      if (arr[i - 1] !== cur) {
        return acc.concat(cur)
      } else {
        return acc
      }
    }, [])
}

console.log(almostIncreasingSequence([1, 2, 1, 2])) // [1,2]
console.log(almostIncreasingSequence([1, 2, 2, 4, 3])) // [1,2,3,4]

La chiesa di Sant'Anastasia è il principale luogo di culto cattolico di Villasanta, in provincia di Monza e Brianza, sede dell'omonima parrocchia dell'arcidiocesi di Milano, facente parte del decanato di Monza, che segue il rito romano, nella zona pastorale V di Monza.

Storia
La presenza di un edificio di culto cattolico nel luogo in cui sorge l'attuale chiesa di Sant'Anastasia è documentata fin dal 768: secondo la ricostruzione di Oleg Zastrow, esso sorgeva lungo la strada principale ed aveva una semplice pianta rettangolare leggermente allungata, con larghezza di circa 7 metri e lunghezza di poco superiore; l'aula terminava con un'abside semicircolare posta lungo il lato orientale.

La chiesa venne dotata in epoca medievale di un campanile ed in seguito, nel XVI secolo, venne ampliata fino a raggiungere circa 20 metri di lunghezza. Inoltre, l'abside originaria venne sostituita con una nuova a pianta quadrangolare e coperta con volta a vela. Il 28-6-1578, la chiesa divenne sede parrocchiale per volere di Carlo Borromeo, arcivescovo di Milano.

Tra il 1768 e il 1796, venne edificata una chiesa più grande di quella antica, demolita nel 1801; questa era in stile barocco ed aveva un'unica navata. Nel 1808 vi è la costruzione di una nuova torre campanaria mentre, tra il 1936 e il 1938, su progetto di Ugo Zanchetta, la chiesa è stata ampliata in forme neoclassiche fino a raggiungere le dimensioni attuali.

Dal 1933 sono custodite nella chiesa le ossa di San Marco soldato per volere dell'allora arcivescovo di Milano, il cardinale Alfredo Ildefonso Schuster.

Descrizione

Esterno

La chiesa di Sant'Anastasia sorge nel centro di La Santa, frazione e sede del comune di Villasanta.

La facciata, frutto dell'ampliamento del 1936, è preceduta da un breve sagrato, al quale si accede salendo alcuni gradini, e presenta una struttura a salienti, che segue quella interna della chiesa. Il prospetto, privo di particolari decorazioni, è interamente ricoperto con intonaco, con riquadri geometrici. Nella parte inferiore, si aprono cinque portali, dei quali tre in corrispondenza della navata centrale. I quattro portali laterali sono gemelli e più piccoli di quello maggiore, avente una cornice in pietra con timpano triangolare. In corrispondenza di quest'ultimo, più in alto, vi è un finestrone ad arco a tutto sesto, chiuso da una vetrata policroma.

Alla sinistra della chiesa, ad essa annessa, si eleva la torre campanaria neoclassica, costruita nel 1938 che, con i suoi 77 metri di altezza, è l'ottavo campanile più alto dell'arcidiocesi di Milano. Il campanile è a pianta quadrata e la cella campanaria si articola in tre livelli: quello inferiore si apre su ciascun lato con una serliana sorretta da colonne tuscaniche; quello mediano, invece, presenta i quadranti dell'orologio; l'ordine superiore ha sezione minore ed è coperto da una cuspide in rame, sormontata dalla croce. Il campanile ospita un concerto composto da 9 campane in Si♭2 calante fuse nel 1923 dai Fratelli Ottolina di Seregno; il campanone, di 2500Kg in nota La, è dedicato alla memoria dei caduti della prima guerra mondiale ed è decorato con le immagini del Sacro Cuore di Gesù, dell'Immacolata, di Gesù tra i fanciulli, di San Lorenzo, San Giovanni Evangelista e di Gesù in croce. In ordine il peso e la nota delle altre: 1800Kg Si, 1240Kg Do#, 1040Kg Re, 730Kg Mi, 515Kg Fa#, 365Kg Sol#, 305Kg La e la minore 215Kg Si.

Interno

L'interno della chiesa è a croce latina, con tre navate, transetto sporgente e profondo presbiterio con abside semicircolare.

L'aula è suddivisa in tre navate con le due laterali gemelle e quella centrale più ampia, scandite da archi a tutto sesto poggianti su pilastri; questi sono decorati con lesene ioniche marmoree, con capitelli dorati. La volta della navata centrale è a botte lunettata, mentre quella delle navate laterali, ciascuna delle quali è suddivisa in quattro campate, è a crociera. Nella navata sinistra, è custodito un affresco cinquecentesco raffigurante la Madonna della Rosa, già custodito nell'antica chiesa, e un battistero marmoreo a tempietto. La navata destra custodisce le ossa, rivestite da una statua di cera e contenute in un'urna d'argento, di San Marco soldato, donate alla parrocchia nel 1933 dal cardinale Ildefonso Schuster, e una statua settecentesca di legno dipinto raffigurante Cristo morto nel sepolcro. Sopra l'ingresso è un pregevole organo costruito alla fine del XIX secolo, restaurato e riportato in funzione.

In corrispondenza della crociera, si eleva la cupola a pianta circolare, con alto tamburo, nel quale si aprono otto finestre rettangolari. La struttura è sormontata da una lanterna con croce in rame.

Le tre navate continuano con due campate oltre il transetto; quella centrale è interamente occupata dal presbiterio, rialzato di alcuni gradini rispetto al resto della chiesa. La sua attuale conformazione, successiva al Concilio Vaticano II, vede al centro l'altare maggiore e, sulla destra, l'ambone, entrambi in marmi policromi; a sinistra vi è il pulpito ligneo con intagli dorati. L'altare maggiore preconciliare è sormontato da un alto ciborio sorretto da colonnine corinzie; alle sue spalle, nella conca dell'abside, trovano luogo gli stalli lignei del coro. Il moderno mosaico del catino absidale raffigura il Sacro Cuore di Gesù.

Organi a canne

Nella chiesa si trovano tre organi a canne:

 lorgano maggiore, situato su due cantorie contrapposte a ridosso delle pareti fondali del transetto, è stato costruito da Diego Bonato nel 2013 e dispone di 91 registri su quattro manuali e pedale;
 lorgano della controfacciata, situato sulla cantoria al di sopra del portale maggiore, è stato costruito da Ferdinando e Paolo Prina nel 1884 a Villasanta e dispone di 36 registri su un unico manuale e pedale;
 lorgano del coro, situato a pavimento nell'abside, è stato costruito dalla ditta Balbiani Vegezzi-Bossi di Milano nel 1962 e dispone di 9 registri su un unico manuale e pedale.

Damascus accuses rebels of polluting water supplies
Author: Al Jazeera
Authorities in Syria say they have been forced to cut water supplies to the capital after rebels reportedly contaminated drinking water with diesel.
Calculating a precise death toll is impossible, partially owing to the forced disappearances of tens of thousands of Syrians whose fates remain unknown.
The Damascus water authority said late on Friday that it had resorted to using water reserves to meet the city's demands, after rebels who control territory northwest of Damascus, contaminated the al-Fija spring.
The spring, which supplies the capital with much of its water, is located in the rebel-held Wadi Barada valley, a mountainous area near the Lebanese border.
The water authority said it expected the problem to be resolved in a "few days".
A news outlet run by Syrian government's ally, Hezbollah, said the rebels had refused to leave the Wadi Barada valley and as a result, the Syrian army began an offensive against them on Friday.
Deliberate cuts to water and electricity supplies have caused significant suffering to civilians with the Syrian army and rebels accused of using water as a weapon.
Aid workers from the International Committee of the Red Cross have helped water boards and engineers maintain and repair ageing pumping stations but as much as half of the total production capacity has been lost or damaged.
Through a series of so-called settlement agreements and army offensives, the Syrian government, backed by Russian air power and Iran-backed militias, has been steadily suppressing armed opposition around the capital.
The Syrian civil war started as a largely unarmed uprising against President Bashar al-Assad in March 2011, but quickly developed into a full-on armed conflict.
Staffan de Mistura, the UN special envoy to Syria, estimated in April that more than 400,000 Syrians had been killed since 2011.
Almost 11 million Syrians - half the country's pre-war population - have been displaced from their homes.

Good News (Redevelopment): FT Ministry to review Kampung Baru plans
It is great that Kampung Baru is being review for future development as the traffic there is really bad. Also good that in this news, FT Ministry Khalid Abdul Samad said that they will preserve Malay elements and protect the identity and history.
The news is refer from EdgeProp.my
Khalid said the redevelopment of Kampung Baru was necessary. (Photo by Low Yen Yeing/EdgeProp.my)
PETALING JAYA (July 28): The Federal Territories (FT) Ministry will review the Kampung Baru Detailed Development Master Plan (PITPKB) as part of ongoing efforts to redevelop the 118-year-old village in the heart of Kuala Lumpur, reported Bernama.
According to FT Minister Khalid Abdul Samad, the development of the village is necessary and he will discuss the matter with Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad to come up with an alternative approach that will not cost the government a lot.
"I will discuss this matter with the Prime Minister, perhaps he has his own vision of Kampung Baru's development, because this needs a clear plan.
"If Kampung Baru is not developed properly, it could cause congestion," he told reporters after visiting the Kampung Baru Development Corp yesterday.
He and FT Ministry secretary-general Datuk Seri Adnan Md Ikshan spent an hour yesterday at the question-and-answer session that involved 100 Kampung Baru folks.
He said the ministry will also consider plans to keep the Malay elements in Kampung Baru to protect its identity and history and gave his assurance any decision made would benefit the families of the village's original residents, without ignoring their rights.
"At present, efforts are being made to resolve the issue of land possession and to get the agreement of the landowners, this takes time and compromise from all parties.
"We will try to get the agreement as soon as possible and the developer has to make an offer which is on par with today's market (price). Hopefully, it is a solution which satisfies all parties and I will make sure that the owners or families are not cheated," he said.


Human Sciences as a department includes two Sections. They are Psychology, Religious Studies, Philosophy and Ethics. These Sections are all offering different skills to students.
The Section of Psychology offers both Clinical Psychology and Industrial Psychology, thus training students to directly work with clients and patients in these fields of psychological need. Students are trained to work with clients and are given the opportunity to take up internships in order to gain first-hand experience in their fields of study, whether they aspire to be clinical psychologists or industrial psychologists.
Religion, Philosophy and Ethics complement the other two subjects in various ways, since religious practice and social skills are basic to the make-up of all persons in society. In the traditional and contemporary Namibian societies people are working with other people who believe and present themselves within their world on spiritual and mental premises, which are tested and challenged all the time. Our Namibian society needs psychologists, social workers, philosophers and ethicists to guide them in a challenging and enticing environment.
