The prices of LCD TVs are marching downward as electronics prices are apt to do, and now Sharp [TYO:6753] is helping push things along with three new value-oriented sets. The 1080p LCDs will come in 52, 46 and 42-inch incarnations, and will feature a respectable 6-millisecond response time, built-in tuner and an auto-adjusting brightness feature that accounts for your living room's ambient light. Okay, so nothing to write home about, but the prices are decent: $2300, $1700 and $1400 respectively. Street prices will likely be considerably lower, but for a relatively high-end brand like Sharp to have HDTVs in this price range is a pretty good sign of things (eg, prices) to come. All three will come sharply dressed in a thin piano-black gloss bezel and an a rearward-facing gray speaker panel on the bottom. While most LCDs these days are getting dolled up with thick showy bezels, it's nice to see Sharp going with the minimalist, ultra-thin bezel; reminiscent of the gorgeous old Apple [NASDAQ:AAPL] Titanium PowerBooks.

It's not the snakes, spiders, crocodiles, sharks or jellyfish that can ruin your holiday in Australia because you can easily avoid them–it's the sun, mate! Lying on the beach, walking, camping–pretty much any outdoor activity has the danger of sunburn. Most backpackers simply underestimate it until they suffer through it.
"You will see a lot of skin cancer clinics around Bondi Junction in Sydney – the sun above Australia (and even worse in New Zealand) shines through a big hole in ozone layer and will not only burn you badly – it's much more likely to cause skin cancer than the sun in Northern Hemisphere," says gondwananet.com.
European and North American travelers are in love with the beautiful Australian beaches because many of them are just empty–locals stay away from the direct sun. In contrast, tourists literally fry themselves to death under the sun. Due to the hot weather, they automatically uncover themselves while outside–a huge DON'T!
"The sun is dangerous. Wear a big hat, sunscreen, cover up and take a water bottle with you wherever you go. People have died or nearly died because they ignored that advice," advises outback-australia-travel-secrets.com.
Look at some of the tips below from fellow backpackers, who have learnt their lesson, and try not to repeat their mistakes. At last, enjoy the trip!
skin cancer is rarer than colon cancer but just as deadly":.
skin cancer is usually caused by UV exposure, therefore, it really makes sense to always use those UV block creams when going o:".
Wear sun glasses will be good. Skin cancer is normally seen .Simplely love this article. No words can express my thanks.

Xi-Putin call shows joint stance against politicizing pandemic
By Chen Qingqing and Yang Sheng Source:Global Times Published: 2020/4/17 1:02:58

Top leaders of China and Russia spoke on the phone on Thursday night, communicating on epidemic prevention and control and setting a fundamental tone for China-Russia ties amid challenging time marked with uncertainties. Such extremely strong mutual understanding and support to address each other's core concerns shown by the top leaders of the two countries also indicated China-Russia ties are the most stable and solid bilateral relationship between major powers, analysts said.
The novel coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19) is spreading around the world, and all the countries are facing hard tasks in fighting the pandemic. The Chinese and Russian leaders spoke on the phone twice in a month, indicating the high-level of bilateral relations, Chinese President Xi Jinping told Russian President Vladimir Putin, Chinese Central Television reported on Thursday night.
Xi said that under Putin's strong leadership, Russia would surely be able to control the spread of the pandemic as soon as possible, ensure the safety of people's lives and health, and restore economic and social development.
China will always remember that Russia offered help to us during the difficult time of China's fight against COVID-19. In the past few days, the medical expert team sent by the Chinese government is actively working in Moscow to exchange and share anti-epidemic experience with their Russian counterparts, the Chinese President said.
Xi also said politicizing and assigning labels over the COVID-19 pandemic are detrimental to international cooperation.
Yang Jin, an associate research fellow at the Institute of Russian, Eastern European and Central Asian Studies of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, told the Global Times on Thursday that "the frequent communications between Xi and Putin and high-level mutual trust as well as mutual assistance throughout the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic showed that the China-Russia relationship is the most stable and solid bilateral relationship between major powers."
Since the outbreak, Russia and China have always united and cooperated and supported each other, reflecting the strategic and high level of Russia-China relations, Putin said, according to CCTV.
The attempts by some people to smear China on the origin of the novel coronavirus are unacceptable, Putin said.
And the Russian side is willing to continue to strengthen exchanges and cooperation in various fields such as anti-epidemic with China, and to communicate and cooperate closely within the UN and other frameworks.
The two leaders both mentioned the same stance against wrongdoings which politicize the pandemic, so this means China and Russia will stand together while the US and other Western countries "poison future international relations through politicizing the pandemic and even claiming compensation from China," Yang noted.
While Russia sees rapid spikes in confirmed COVID-19 cases, China pays close attention to preventing imported cases from the neighboring country with frictions emerging between people, which has become a major topic for the West in questioning the sustainability of China-Russia ties. It has also become a topic for Western media to hype on.
In fact, the direct and close communication between Xi and Putin, in addition to their good personal relationship that is hardly seen on the global stage, indicates they are handling the bilateral ties in a skillful and mature manner, analysts said, noting that some divergences and "outside noises" won't dilute such cohesion.
US media outlet Fox News continued hyping the old conspiracy theory that the novel coronavirus was made in "a Wuhan laboratory" by citing "anonymous sources" without even explaining how the sources acquired the information while US President Donald Trump fanned the flames of such claims during a daily briefing on Wednesday, drawing a backlash from the Chinese side.
If no one can stop the West from politicizing the pandemic, the competition among major powers in the future could be unimaginable and unpredictable as the public health crisis could escalate to far worse situations "including war," so China and Russia are playing a powerful and responsible stabilizer to deterring the West from politicizing the pandemic and helping the world avoid encountering a more destructive crisis in the future, Yang further said.
The public health crisis is seen as a major topic for the global community in the coming years. Promoting cooperation between China and Russia also showed that the two nations would firmly support bilateral and multilateral collaboration on dealing with the major global public health issues, Li Haidong, a professor at the Institute of International Relations of the China Foreign Affairs University, told the Global Times.

BMW is expanding its network of enviable partners to take on Mercedes and Tesla in the race to develop self-driving cars.
The Munich-based automaker added Delphi to the list of partners aiding its effort to develop an autonomous driving platform by 2021 that can be sold to other automakers. Delphi, an automotive parts supplier spun out of General Motors in 2011, will join Intel and Mobileye in the consortium.
All four parties declined to elaborate on the financial relationship between them and how that will play out when they begin licensing the platform at the start of the next decade during a press call with journalists Tuesday. Delphi's partnership with BMW, Intel, and Mobileye is non-exclusive.
The move further positions BMW to take on Mercedes and Tesla in both self-driving-car development and the collection of vehicle data.
Delphi has snatched up several startups, like Movimento, so it can release a suite of software products that would allow automakers to make over-the-air updates, a strategy pioneered by Tesla, Bloomberg reported in April.
Delphi has also invested in Israeli startup Otonomo, which is helping Mercedes' parent company Daimler and 8 other major automakers, sell car data to third parties.
The race to capitalize on the big data is growing fiercer. New vehicles on the road today are already collecting data by virtue of connected car platforms, but the addition of smart sensors to aid autonomous driving will only grow data sets.
McKinsey & Co. predicts car data could become a $750 billion industry by 2030.
BMW's alignment with Delphi will help position the automaker to compete more directly with Mercedes, which already uses Otonomo's services. The German carmaker can also leverage its relationship with Intel, which invested $250 million in the development of self-driving vehicles and big data in November.
Intel CEO Brian Krzanich went so far as to call data "the next oil" when he made the investment last year.
There's a lot moving parts in a consortium of this size, but Delphi CTO Glen De Vos said the normal tiered structure between suppliers and automakers is becoming less applicable as companies compete on developing a digital ecosystem.
Richard Rau, BMW's vice president of sensors, said he believes these kinds of consolidations will occur more frequently over time. Ultimately, there will be a "fairly small" number of autonomous driving platforms shaping the market.
"In the long run there will on be a few platforms left," he said.

Relationship of angiogenesis and microglial activation to seizure-induced neuronal death in the cerebral cortex of Shetland Sheepdogs with familial epilepsy
Masashi Sakurai
Takehito Morita
Takashi Takeuchi
Akinori Shimada
Objective—To determine whether angiogenesis and microglial activation were related to seizure-induced neuronal death in the cerebral cortex of Shetland Sheepdogs with familial epilepsy.
Animals—Cadavers of 10 Shetland Sheepdogs from the same family (6 dogs with seizures and 4 dogs without seizures) and 4 age-matched unrelated Shetland Sheepdogs.
Procedures—Samples of brain tissues were collected after euthanasia and then fixed in neutral phosphate–buffered 10% formalin and routinely embedded in paraffin. The fixed samples were sectioned for H&E staining and immunohistochemical analysis.
Results—Evidence of seizure-induced neuronal death was detected exclusively in samples of cerebral cortical tissue from the dogs with familial epilepsy in which seizures had been observed. The seizure-induced neuronal death was restricted to tissues from the cingulate cortex and sulci surrounding the cerebral cortex. In almost the same locations as where seizure-induced neuronal death was identified, microvessels appeared longer and more tortuous and the number of microvessels was greater than in the dogs without seizures and control dogs. Occasionally, the microvessels were surrounded by oval to flat cells, which had positive immunohistochemical results for von Willebrand factor. Immunohistochemical results for neurons and glial cells (astrocytes and microglia) were positive for vascular endothelial growth factor, and microglia positive for ionized calcium–binding adapter molecule 1 were activated (ie, had swollen cell bodies and long processes) in almost all the same locations as where seizure-induced neuronal death was detected. Double-label immunofluorescence techniques revealed that the activated microglia had positive results for tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-6, and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 1. These findings were not observed in the cerebrum of dogs without seizures, whether the dogs were from the same family as those with epilepsy or were unrelated to them.
Conclusions and Clinical Relevance—Signs of angiogenesis and microglial activation corresponded with seizure-induced neuronal death in the cerebral cortex of Shetland Sheepdogs with familial epilepsy. Microglial activation induced by vascular endothelial growth factor and associated proinflammatory cytokine production may accelerate seizure-induced neuronal death in dogs with epilepsy.
Expression of α-smooth muscle actin and fibronectin in tubulointerstitial lesions of cats with chronic renal failure

Objective—To examine renal expression of α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) and fibronectin in cats with tubulointerstitial nephritis (TIN) for use in predicting progression to renal fibrosis.
Animals—19 cats with TIN and 9 cats without nephritis.
Procedure—Serum creatinine and BUN concentrations were measured. Indices for glomerular extra-cellular matrix (ECM), tubular injury (TI), and fibronectin were determined in renal specimens to quantify the extent of injury and fibrotic lesions. Expression of α-SMA in renal tissue was immunohistochemically detected, and correlations were evaluated between the α-SMA index and other histologic and clinical variables.
Results—The α-SMA index in tubulointerstitial areas (1.63 ± 0.78) was significantly higher in cats with TIN, especially in the periglomerular and peritubular areas, than in cats without nephritis (0.20 ± 0.14). The α-SMA index was significantly associated with the TI index (r 2 = 0.70), fibronectin index (r 2 = 0.95), BUN concentration (r 2 = 0.64), and serum creatinine concentration (r 2 = 0.66). Of special interest was that interstitial α-SMA expression appeared evident in the kidneys at an early stage of TIN, prior to the onset of ECM deposition.
Conclusion and Clinical Relevance—Analysis of results of histologic and clinical examinations revealed that interstitial α-SMA expression may have clinical importance and may be a useful early histologic marker for development of chronic renal failure in cats. An immunohistochemical examination for fibrogenic molecules (such as α-SMA expression) may provide fundamental information on the pathogenesis of early-stage renal disease and aid clinical management of cats with chronic renal failure, including TIN.

Pakistani Troops Attack Suspected Terrorist Sites Near Afghan Border - 2004-06-11
In Pakistan, thousands of troops, supported by helicopter gunships are attacking suspected hideouts of the al-Qaida terror network in a semi-autonomous tribal region near the Afghan border. Nearly 60 people have died in the three-day offensive, including 15 government soldiers.
The fighting is taking place in Shakai, a mountainous valley of the South Waziristan border region, where scores of suspected foreign militants are believed to be hiding.
Speaking to reporters Friday, military spokesman Major-General Shaukat Sultan says satellite pictures have identified three al-Qaida-linked compounds in the area, including a terrorist training facility with a firing range.
"The security forces have struck at these targets. The fighting is going on almost on all the targets. Since the situation is quite fluid at this moment, we don't have the exact number of casualties,? he said.
The army spokesman says an alleged financier, identified as Abd al-Hadi al-Iraqi, used to frequently visit one of the compounds under attack. He refused to give further details, and would not confirm whether the suspect was there when the attack occurred.
A similar Pakistan military offensive in March killed more than 100 people, including 48 government soldiers. General Sultan says Pakistan is determined to flush out terrorists from its soil.
"The government has taken a decision, a very bold decision. We are prepared to pay the price, whatever it may be, because we would like to take this war on terror to its logical end," he added.
Pakistan is a key U.S. ally in the war on terrorism, and has vowed to crush extremist forces and al-Qaida terrorists on its soil. The policy has outraged militant Islamic groups in the country, and officials blame these forces for a series of deadly attacks across the country, including two attempts to kill president and army chief General Pervez Musharraf in December.
On Thursday, a top army general escaped an assassination attempt in the southern city of Karachi. Ten people, mostly soldiers, were killed in the attack, but the general escaped unhurt. More than 60 people have been killed in terrorist and bomb attacks in the largest Pakistani city in the past month.

This paper presents the functional responsibilities of a central bank which is required to maintain systemic financial stability without having supervisory oversight of individual financial institutions. Although the Financial Services Authority (FSA) has responsibility for supervising individual financial institutions, the central bank retains responsibility for the smooth running of the domestic payments system and, by extension, oversight of the structure and soundness of the clearing and settlement systems of the main financial markets, money and bond markets, the foreign exchange market, and the equity market. A second, associated function, thrown into prominence by 9/11, is to undertake contingency planning against a major physical disruption of markets, whether by terrorism or natural causes. A third role, perhaps the best-known component in this portfolio of operational tasks, is to provide injections of liquidity, either to the financial system as a whole via open market operations or via lender-of-last-resort (LOLR) actions to individual institutions. A problem with such latter LOLR operations is that they might put taxpayers' money at risk.

Some New Directions for Financial Stability?


We've just published the industry's first report on the State of the Headless CMS Market. And we have to admit, some of the results surprised us. However, we didn't want to mix facts and opinions, so we have kept the report purely factual. In this blog post, we offer our biased opinions supported by gut feeling and anecdotal evidence.
Our Community team is hard at work, producing new SDKs for Kentico Cloud for all types of platforms. Recently, we launched our new Kentico Cloud Delivery JavaRx SDK, enabling Java and Android developers to easily integrate Kentico Cloud into their apps. In this article, I'll take a closer look at the SDK and sample projects to help you get started with these new GitHub projects.
GDPR and Non-EU Companies – Where Is the Line Drawn?
Geographical implications and applicability seem to be gray areas for some. Where the borders of applicability lie for those companies based outside the EU can appear confusing. So, let's clear away many of those doubts by addressing some of those key GDPR criteria affecting non-EU-based companies.

Facebook interested in Ubisoft IPs as Oculus exclusives
Facebook is looking for a way to increase the number of triple A franchises and exclusives available for VR devices, hoping to attract more users their Oculus VR headsets in particular.
According to a recent report, Facebook is in the market for new studio acquisitions and IPs in order to make VR titles in popular franchises. Currently there are a number of great VR titles, such as Blood & Truth, on the market, but very few in Triple A franchises. When big franchises do have a VR release, more often than not they're VR experiences rather than actual games.
Sources close to the matter have indicated that two of Ubisoft's IPs, Assassin's Creed and Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell, are already signed up for use by Facebook. Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Facebook, was part of the deal to sign both of these IPs, however it was the company's Vice President of Special Gaming Initiatives, Justin Rubin, is leading the new acquisitions effort.
A spokesperson for Facebook has said that they're not able to comment on specific partnerships with Facebook. They added that the company is dedicated to growing their audience through expanding their gaming library for many years to come.
Assassin's Creed is a well-known franchise with millions of players around the world. Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell is similarly beloved, but the lack of a release in the franchise since Blacklist in 2013, means that fans are starving for more stealth action.
Rubin was previously Head of Content for Oculus, but was promoted to this new position in December last year.
Oculus Quest, the latest Oculus device, launched in May. The device brought tetherless VR gaming to the market, shifting $5 million worth of software in the first two weeks on sale.
VR is still an emerging market within the games industry. Tetherless VR headsets make it more accessible, but most still require a high-end PC in order to run games. PlayStation VR is far cheaper, and only requires a PlayStation 4 instead of a PC, but even games for this platform don't come close to competing with regular console titles.

Worksite expanding? Drilling and exploring in a new area? Got an extra crew coming in and nowhere for them to sleep? No problem. Port Container Services has been providing shipping container accommodation to mining camps around Australia for the last 10 years, and we have depots all around Australia, so we can arrange to get containers out to you ASAP.
Shipping containers were originally built to withstand the rigours of travelling around the world, being transported from truck to ship to port and off again. Their strength, durability and portability make them the perfect candidate for the rigours of remote mining areas, and purpose-built shipping container accommodation has become the go-to solution for many industries.
The mining industry has found them particularly useful, and it is not unusual to see whole villages made out of shipping containers. Strong, sturdy, fitted out with every requirement, easy to ship in and set up, and just as easy to ship out, shipping container accommodation has always been a quick and easy solution to the accommodation problem that mining companies regularly face.
At Port Container Services, we have been creating and constructing portable accommodation for the mining industry for many years and we have a range of pre-designed accommodation containers that are very popular. They range from simple bunked style models that sleep up to 8 people (ideal when the site features separate ablution blocks and eating facilities) or self-contained accommodation containers complete with kitchens and ensuites. Insulated, ventilated, air-conditioned, with electrical and plumbing fitouts ready to plug and play, Port Container Services container accommodation is first choice for many worksites and mining camps.
Of course we can also custom design a container to suit your specific requirements. We have the largest container modification facility in Australia, and we are experts in creating custom-built containers to suit you. We also have a range of accessories that you can customise your container with . Let us know what you want – or tell us what problem you are trying to solve – and we can arrange everything for you. Our shipping container accommodation is all modified in Australia, and all our modified containers carry a money back guarantee.
Our mobile mining accommodation containers are the ideal fix for all your mining housing requirements and are a cost effective way to manage accommodation challenges and keep staff close to the work site at the same time. Built to last, easy to ship in and equally easy to ship out, they are the perfect mining camp solution.
Want to know more about our accommodation containers? Like a quote? Then fill in our quote form and we will send a full price guide. Need a container sent your way ASAP? Give us a call on 1300 957 709 and we can fix everything up for you.

A major winter storm continues from south-central Minnesota to central Wisconsin tonight; Mild temps and a quieter weather pattern this weekend into early next week; Storm potential middle of next week
A powerful area of low pressure centered over far northeast Kansas late this afternoon will lift northeast reaching central Lake Michigan by daybreak (Saturday), this low will then move into western Quebec by Saturday evening.
Heavy snow in the colder air on the NW side of this low, while severe weather occurs in the warmer air on the SE side of this area of low pressure.
A swath of 6-10+" of snow is expected by Saturday morning from south-central Minnesota to central/northeast Wisconsin to central upper Michigan.
Major Potential Winter Storm Impacts (red) tonight into early Saturday morning, with Moderate Potential Winter Storm Impacts in the orange area.
Here's my updated snowfall forecast for tonight's storm.
I did nudge the snowfall gradients a little farther NW, but it still looks like the bulk of the snow will remain south- southeast of Duluth tonight.
A variety of weather alerts are in effect for tonight.
Pink – Winter Storm Warning
Purple – Winter Weather Advisory
Yellow – Tornado Watch
Brown – High wind
Darker pink – Fire warnings
A look at today's storm on water vapor imagery.
Snow for much of northwest Wisconsin and possibly in far eastern Minnesota tonight, but this snow will end quickly from SW-NE early Saturday morning.
18z NAM 3km model simulated radar forecast ending 10 AM Saturday.
An outbreak of severe thunderstorms including a risk for tornadoes (some of which may be strong) is expected tonight from parts of Missouri and Arkansas east through parts of Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee and possibly as far south as Louisiana and Mississippi.
It is rare to see such a large area at risk for severe thunderstorms and for so far north on December 10th. The map below shows where severe weather typically occurs on December 10th.
The setup for severe thunderstorms is rather potent for tonight.
Strong winds aloft centered over the Central Plains and north of the Great Lakes with a deepening surface low tracking northeastward out of far northeast Kansas.
Strong divergence between the two wind maximums coupled with ample amounts of warm air, moisture, instability and wind shear will lead to the potential for severe weather tonight (white outlined area on map).
Very humid air as far north as central Illinois this afternoon with dew points in the mid 50s, but it's even more humid farther south.
Just a tremendous amount of warm air today with 70-degree temps as far north as southern Missouri, and 80s as far north as southern Arkansas.
…Storm Potential middle of next week…
-A powerful storm system may develop while impacting parts of the Rockies, Plains and upper Midwest the middle of next week.
-A swath of heavy snow (possible blizzard conditions) High winds, rain and thunderstorms are all possible with this system.
-The storm track will determine what area sees snow, rain or a combination of the two, and that won't be known for a few more days.
-Computer models continue to show a very deep area of low pressure for the middle of next week, possibly as low as the 970s millibar range. Whether or not the models continue to show a low this strong, or if they trend toward a weaker system in coming days remains to be seen.
-Based on the current storm track, most of the Northland would be on the warm side of this system with rain being the main precipitation type, although a brief period of snow is possible at the tail end of this system as colder air rushes in.
Incredible amounts of warm air for the middle of next week if this forecast verifies.


A 10 page paper comparing the main character of Charlotte Bronte's novel with Bronte herself. The writer concludes that although there are a few ways in which Bronte's life is directly reflected in the book, the correspondences between Charlotte and Jane lie more in the way both heroines deal with a damaged self-concept through the development of their frank and passionate natures, and their determination to live according to their own moral principles. Bibliography lists nine sources.
A five page paper comparing Charles Dickens' and Emily Bronte's absence of mothers in these two novels, and the effects this absence has on children in both novels. The paper concludes that Dickens feels some kind of mothering is necessary, even if it is the nurturing provided by a man; and Bronte feels girls do just as well mothering themselves. Bibliography lists three sources.
The idea behind a threshold is threefold it separates the space between what lies on one side of the door and the other, it stops the door from swinging between those same spaces and it forms the base for the frame of the door. The analogy of a door is a popular one for understanding life, whether fictional representations of life or real life. Doors open into new spaces, experiences and knowledge. This 7 page paper examines the stories of Jane Erye, by Charlotte Bronte, Wuthering Heights, by Emily Bronte, and Frankenstein, written by Mary Shelley, and argues that there is at least one incident where a character 'stands at the threshold' of a decision that will change their life. No additional sources are listed.


1. Despite the sudden drop in temperature we have been making the most of each weekend and heaving out to some of our favourite places. This was taken at Dyffryn Gardens, a beautiful National Trust property.
2. We spent a lovely afternoon at Forest Farm nature reserve doing some Autumnal apple picking and pond dipping as well as exploring some of the Taff trail - this street art is aptly names the "Taff snail".
3. Last month I spent a fantastic day with Britmums at the You Tube space in London. Was so inspiring and informative and has given me much food for thought when it comes to content on my channel.
4. I have been trying to find time to get a little bit more creative away from the laptop by doing a few watercolour painting and making some handmade Christmas cards.
5. I am all about the chunky knitwear at the moment and have picked up a few pieces for the season ahead, nothing beats being nice and cosy on a cold day.
6. This image of the boys has to be one of my most recent favourites and reflecting back on our Mini road trip to Hertfordshire with F&F clothing we did in October.
8. We are all really excited about Advent starting, especially the boys. They both have chocolate advents but we also have a fun activity advent planned where we do something small and simple each day to get into the festive spirit.
9. Despite having loads of deadlines I have also been making a point of slowing down and enjoying the simple things such as reading a book with this little guy who just loves a good story.
What have you been grateful for this month?
What a lovely collection of pictures, you've certainly got a talent for snapping. Sounds like you had a great November!
So important to take a step back and think about all we're grateful for. I'm grateful for my health. I lost a love one to an illness last month. Thank you for reminding me to do this!
Looks like you had a very busy and funpacked November. You have achieved so much, hope your Dec is equally fun packed.
I love looking back at my Instagram too and seeing all of the things I do throughout the year. It brings great memories. I love your photos and how they tell stories. Have a wonderful new year filled with lots more memories !

Isabelle de Truchis de Varennes, dite Zazie, est une auteure-compositrice-interprète et mannequin française, née le  à Boulogne-Billancourt (département de la Seine).

Biographie

Isabelle Marie Anne de Truchis de Varennes est née le  à Boulogne-Billancourt, du baron Hervé de Truchis de Varennes (né en 1935), architecte urbaniste, et de Jacqueline Caussé, professeur de musique, pianiste émérite et choriste du chef d'orchestre suisse Michel Corboz. Elle a un frère aîné, Philippe, dit Phil Baron, né en 1962, musicien, compositeur, écrivain et photographe. L'écrivain et historien Albéric de Truchis de Varennes (1861-1944) était son arrière-grand-oncle.

Son père Hervé de Truchis de Varennes fait partie de la noblesse française : sa famille est installée entre Bresse et Bugey.

Surnommée « Zazie » en référence au roman de Raymond Queneau, Zazie dans le métro, elle affirme très tôt son penchant pour le domaine artistique. À la maison, elle et sa famille écoutent les  (Brassens, Brel et Barbara) et de la musique classique.

Zazie a pratiqué le violon pendant dix ans, un peu de piano et de guitare. Sa prédilection pour l'écriture s'affirme petit à petit.

Elle grandit à Boulogne-Billancourt et étudie au lycée Molière ().

Carrière

Débuts et premiers succès (1991-1994)
Après l'obtention d'un baccalauréat littéraire à , elle entame trois ans d'études de kinésithérapeute puis de langues étrangères appliquées (anglais, espagnol et japonais), mais consacre son temps libre à son synthétiseur. Elle se lance ensuite, du haut de son , dans le mannequinat et, pendant une dizaine d'années, défile aussi bien pour des marques de maillots de bain et de prêt-à-porter que pour de grands noms de la haute-couture tels que Yves Saint Laurent, Karl Lagerfeld ou Kenzo. Mais l'univers de la mode n'est qu'une ressource alimentaire, elle n'y fait pas une grande carrière et sa passion reste la musique.

Grâce à une amie mannequin et musicienne, Zazie a l'occasion de faire partie des chœurs sur un titre du chanteur Fabrice Guinar. Elle apparaît pour la première fois à la télévision en 1986 avec Alain Lanty puis accompagne au saxophone Pierre Cosso. Elle prête également sa voix pour des publicités à la radio (Opel, Cochonou, Martini) et à la télévision (L'Oréal, St Môret, etc.), et Les Nuls font appel à elle pour la chanson d'une fausse publicité. On peut aussi l'apercevoir en choriste d'Alain Chamfort, de Véronique Sanson dans Les Nuls l'émission,  et de Boy George dans l'émission Le monde est à vous sur Antenne 2 en 1991.

Ce n'est qu'en 1990 que Zazie tente réellement de se lancer dans la chanson, encouragée par Étienne Roda-Gil. Elle signe en 1991 chez Phonogram et publie en 1992 Je, Tu, Ils, son premier album, enregistré dans les studios de son idole Peter Gabriel. Elle en écrit quasiment tous les textes et participe à la composition.  des artistes comme Pascal Obispo, encore méconnu (sur le titre 1, 2, 3, Soleil), ou Vincent-Marie Bouvot, connu pour son travail de composition pour Julie Pietri et Elsa Lunghini. Le premier , Sucré Salé, permet à Zazie de se faire remarquer et d'intégrer le Top 50 ; Zazie est alors sacrée Révélation féminine aux Victoires de la musique. Et même si ce premier album ne rencontre finalement qu'un succès d'estime, la carrière de la chanteuse est lancée.

Reconnaissance (1995-1999)
Le deuxième album Zen sort en 1995. Tous les textes sont signés Zazie et chacun des extraits connaîtra le succès : Larsen, Zen, Un point c'est toi et Homme  homme. Plus abouti, cet album se vend à plus de . Après une Victoire de la musique pour le clip de Larsen, elle fait salle comble à la Cigale, et sa tournée Zazie est en ville remporte un franc succès. Désormais, sa notoriété lui permettra d'écrire et de composer pour d'autres artistes comme Julie Zenatti, Florent Pagny, Johnny Hallyday, Jane Birkin, Patricia Kaas, Isabelle Boulay, David Hallyday, Calogero, Axel Bauer et Christophe Willem. La même année, elle enregistre un titre pour Sol en Si avec Alain Chamfort avant de rejoindre l'équipe en 1997 pour une série de concerts.

En 1996, paraît un duo avec Pascal Obispo, Les Meilleurs Ennemis, extrait de l'album de ce dernier, Superflu, dans lequel elle participe à l'écriture et aux chœurs (tout comme pour les deux premiers albums du chanteur, dont les chansons Plus que tout au monde et L'île aux oiseaux). Elle enregistre également Rose avec Dominique Dalcan (bande originale de Ma vie en rose, sorti en 1997), Chanson des baleines de parapluie (pour la nouvelle version d'Émilie Jolie), compose la musique du film Tout doit disparaître, et intègre Les Enfoirés. Elle est alors consacrée aux Victoires de la Musique de 1998 en recevant la Victoire de l'artiste interprète féminine.

Elle présente ensuite l'album , considéré comme celui de la maturité. Elle ne collabore plus avec Pascal Obispo mais compose elle-même toutes les musiques (sauf pour Chanson d'ami) et écrit toutes les paroles. Plus sombre, cet album, lancé par le  Tous des anges, fait l'objet d'une promotion originale : l'intégralité de l'album fut diffusée sur TF1 à  du matin (à l'image, on peut voir le plan fixe d'un poste de radio). Le clip de Ça fait mal et ça fait rien, jugé trop violent, est censuré, et seul Tout le monde connaît un véritable succès. L'album se vend à plus de .

Elle est remarquée au début de 1999 dans le film de Didier Le Pêcheur, J'aimerais pas crever un dimanche, aux côtés d'Élodie Bouchez et de Jean-Marc Barr. Mais c'est sur scène avec Le Tour des Anges que Zazie rencontre le plus de succès, avec plus de , ainsi qu'une mini-tournée en Asie (Birmanie, Cambodge, Viêt Nam et Singapour). La tournée est immortalisée sur l'album et le DVD .

Poursuite du succès (années 2000)

Après une courte absence, elle réapparaît lors des concerts de ses amis auxquels elle participe. Elle chante en duo avec Axel Bauer le titre À ma place qui, avec plus de  vendus, se hisse au sommet des  de l'été 2001 et se voit récompensée par un NRJ music awards. En , paraît l'album La Zizanie, lancé par le  Rue de la Paix. Ce titre, dans lequel elle compare la société à un jeu de , rencontre également un grand succès, tout comme le suivant, Adam et Yves. Pour ce quatrième album, Zazie change d'équipe : seul Pierre Jaconelli est toujours présent pour la réalisation. Les ventes de cet album atteignent les . Les places pour une série de concerts au Bataclan sont rapidement vendues, avant que les dates ne soient repoussées à l'année suivante car la chanteuse attend un enfant.

Après avoir décroché une nouvelle Victoire de la Musique (artiste de l'année), elle donne naissance en août à sa fille, Lola. Au début de 2003, Zazie « squatte le Bataclan » (retracé dans le CD/DVD Ze Live !!) et part en tournée dans toute la France. Par la suite, Rodéo, son cinquième album, sort le , accompagné du DVD Rodéo Indien où figurent dix clips tournés à Bombay. Plus pop, les compositions sont signées Jean-Pierre Pilot, Philippe Paradis et Zazie. L'album atteint rapidement les  sans qu'aucun  extrait n'ait connu de véritable succès. Elle part en tournée de juin à  en passant entre autres par Bercy et sort dans la foulée son troisième album , Rodéo Tour.

Son sixième album, Totem, sort le  et se classe directement 1 des ventes avec plus de  écoulés en une semaine, lancé par le  Des rails. Le deuxième , Je suis un homme, rencontre un grand succès et permet à l'album de s'écouler à plus de . Elle entame une tournée le , avec notamment quatre dates au Zénith de Paris et deux au Forest National de Bruxelles. L'année 2007 s'avère être une année très lucrative : avec  d'euros, elle est la chanteuse qui a gagné le plus d'argent en 2007 et se classe en cinquième position parmi les artistes français.

Au début de 2008, le Totem Tour se poursuit dans des salles plus intimistes, dont une date exceptionnelle à Londres, au , et deux soirs à la Cigale. À la même époque, elle est l'artiste la plus nommée aux Victoires de la musique avec une nomination dans cinq catégories : artiste féminine, album de variétés, tournée, chanson et clip de l'année (pour Je suis un homme). Toutefois, elle repart sans aucune récompense mais voit la chanson Double Je de Christophe Willem, dont elle a signé les paroles, rafler la Victoire de la Chanson de l'année. Le  sort sa première compilation.  regroupe une sélection de  retraçant les  de carrière de la chanteuse, dont deux inédits, FM Air et Un peu beaucoup, ainsi que quatre titres  captés pendant sa dernière tournée.

Années 2010
En septembre 2010, Zazie revient avec une création musicale différente des précédentes. Pour son septième album, elle se lance dans un vaste projet, 7 qui se compose de sept mini-albums de sept chansons chacun (en fait six de chansons et un proposant les vidéos de sept des 42 nouvelles chansons). La sortie de cet opus se fait en plusieurs étapes : après un CD de  extraits du projet global, paraissent progressivement sur internet les sept mini-albums à raison d'un par semaine. Un coffret contenant l'intégralité des  sort ensuite dans les bacs le 29 novembre. S'ensuit une longue tournée à travers la France de 110 dates d'avril 2011 à février 2012.

Le huitième album de Zazie, Cyclo, paraît au printemps 2013. L'album, réalisé par Olivier Coursier du groupe AaRON et mixé par Tony Hoffer, est soutenu par les titres Les contraires, Mobile homme, 20 ans et Temps plus vieux, sont disponibles sur le site officiel de la chanteuse. Une tournée de 18 dates, Cyclo Tour, commence le 12 novembre à Dijon pour se terminer le 14 décembre à Genève.

En 2014, Zazie fait partie, aux côtés d'Orelsan, de Pascale Clark, Didier Varrod et de quatre autres professionnels du jury du radio-crochet de France Inter On a les moyens de vous faire chanter. Le radio-crochet est à l'antenne jusqu'au 21 juin, jour de la finale en direct de l'Olympia. La même année, elle travaille avec Hélène Ségara sur son album Tout commence aujourd'hui.

Le , elle présente un nouveau single, Discold, premier extrait de l'album Encore heureux, qui paraît le 30 octobre. Réalisé avec Philippe Paradis et Édith Fambuena, l'album est certifié disque d'or. Zazie entame alors une nouvelle tournée de près de 80 dates qui débute au Théâtre de l'Onde à Vélizy le 20 février 2016, L'Heureux Tour, qui passe notamment par les Folies Bergère pour une série de douze concerts, s'achève le 15 décembre au Bataclan.

Parallèlement, Zazie dévoile le 4 novembre 2016 sa première compilation intégrale, présentée sous la forme d'un luxueux coffret et contenant l'ensemble de ses neuf albums studio ainsi que des titres inédits et rares.

En 2016, elle co-écrit les chansons de la comédie musicale Le Rouge et le Noir, produite par Albert Cohen.

Le 28 mars 2017, Zazie rejoint la société de management #NP, créée par Pascal Nègre en 2016.

En 2017, Zazie intègre le casting du jury présidé par Jacques Weber pour la neuvième édition du festival international du film policier. Le festival a lieu du 29 mars au 2 avril à Beaune, le jury a pour mission de départager six films en compétition.

Zazie participe à un album rendant hommage à Barbara. Ce nouveau disque intitulé Elles & Barbara est produit par Édith Fambuena avec qui Zazie avait déjà travaillé sur son dernier album Encore heureux. Dans cet album, Zazie interprète La solitude. Elles & Barbara est disponible à partir du 9 juin 2017, jour où Barbara aurait fêté ses 87 ans.

Le conte musical Le Soldat Rose revient en 2017 pour un troisième volet, onze ans après Le Soldat Rose 1 qui avait été un immense succès. Le Soldat Rose 3 est à nouveau écrit par Pierre-Dominique Burgaud, mais le casting est différent puisque c'est Alain Souchon et ses fils qui ont composé les douze chansons du conte. Renan Luce incarnera le Soldat Rose, Zazie fait également partie du casting. Une représentation est attendue le 22 novembre 2017 à l'Olympia et l'album incluant les douze nouvelles chansons sortira le 24 novembre.

Le 13 novembre 2017, le label indépendant Six et Sept, fondé et présidé par Pascal Nègre, annonce la signature de Zazie.

En 2018, Zazie écrit la chanson OK ou KO, interprétée par Emmy Liyana lors de l'émission Destination Eurovision.

Le 24 mai 2018 marque le retour de Zazie qui présente le single Speed ; Zazie signe une nouvelle fois le texte de sa chanson. Pour la composition, l'artiste s'est entourée d'Édith Fambuena. Speed est le premier extrait de son dixième album studio, Essenciel, sorti le 7 septembre 2018.

Pendant la crise sanitaire, en soutien au personnel soignant, Zazie dévoile le titre Après la pluie. L'intégralité des droits sont reversés à la Croix-Rouge.

En 2022, l'artiste annonce la préparation d'un onzième disque studio précédé par la sortie du single Let It Shine dévoilé le 1er juillet. Si elle signe comme à l'accoutumée le texte de la chanson, Zazie réitère sa collaboration avec Édith Fambuena pour la composition. Avant la parution de l'album, l'artiste dévoile un EP surprise composé de quatre pistes. Pour son retour, Zazie retrouve notamment le musicien et producteur Jean-Pierre Pilot avec qui elle avait déjà collaboré par le passé sur les albums La Zizanie, Rodéo et Totem.

Son onzième album intitulé Aile-P sort le 2 décembre 2022. Enrichi de huit pistes, il inclut notamment les quatre pistes de l'EP dévoilé en septembre. Pour son retour, Zazie a souhaité jouer avec les formats historiques du l'industrie musicale (Single / EP / LP). Un travail qui se comprend aussi à travers le visuel, dézoomé au fur et à mesure des formats dévoilés. Dans une note d'intention présentant le projet, il est indiqué que Zazie livre avec Aile-P une conclusion temporaire.

Télévision
En 2009, elle participe à l'émission Rendez-vous en terre inconnue chez les Korowai en Papouasie occidentale.

Zazie est présente pour le show Alors on chante célébrant les  du Sidaction, diffusé le 28 novembre 2014, et Les Enfoirés en chœur, diffusé sur TF1 le 12 décembre 2014, émission dans laquelle plusieurs artistes s'affrontent en deux équipes dans un quiz sur les Enfoirés.

En 2015, lors de la quatrième saison, Zazie devient coach de l'émission à succès de TF1, The Voice, la plus belle voix avec Jenifer, Mika et Florent Pagny. Son finaliste Lilian Renaud remporte la saison. Elle reste coach pour les saisons 5, 6 et 7 et la saison All Stars. Lors de la saison 7, sa finaliste Maëlle remporte le concours. En 2018, Zazie annonce qu'elle quitte The Voice afin de se consacrer à son nouvel album. Elle est de retour pour la saison anniversaire en 2021 et retrouve son fauteuil pour la 12ème saison diffusée en 2023.

Vie privée

Zazie a une fille, Lola, née le 16 août 2002, de son union avec le musicien Fabien Cahen. Séparée de celui-ci, elle a aussi vécu avec le musicien Philippe Paradis, dont elle s'est séparée en septembre 2015.

En 2022, la chanteuse est contrainte de déménager de son appartement à Paris en raison de problèmes avec le voisinage qui lui reproche les trop nombreuses nuisances sonores, un sujet évoqué (avec humour) dans sa chanson Let It Shine.

Engagée à gauche, .

Œuvres caritatives
Zazie participe à plusieurs œuvres caritatives depuis de nombreuses années : elle est fidèle aux Enfoirés depuis 1997 ainsi qu'à l'association Sol En Si depuis 1995, pour laquelle elle a écrit le conte musical Sol En Cirque en 2003 avec Vincent Baguian et Jean-Marie Leau.

Outre les grandes associations caritatives, la chanteuse a l'habitude d'apporter son soutien à diverses causes par l'intermédiaire de la chanson ou non.

Depuis 2012, elle est ambassadrice, aux côtés de Caterina Murino, Laura Flessel, Béatrice Schönberg et Aïssa Maïga entre autres, de la campagne France  de l'AMREF Flying Doctors, qui vise à former des sages-femmes pour lutter contre la mortalité maternelle et infantile en Afrique.

Elle se montre sensible aux questions environnementales, dans certaines de ses chansons,  le 7 décembre 2015 à l'Olympia et  de Yann Arthus-Bertrand le 13 mai 2017 au domaine de Longchamp. .

Reps. Terri Sewell, D-Ala., and Adrian Smith, R-Neb., introduced legislation April 16 to correct an unintended consequence of the sweeping Tax Cuts and Jobs Act that Congress passed in 2017. It's a companion bill to the one introduced in the Senate on April 4 by Sens. Rob Portman, R-Ohio, and Tina Smith, D-Minn.
The 2017 tax law inadvertently put nonprofit co-ops in the position of having to decide whether to risk their tax-exempt status to accept grants, including those from the Federal Emergency Management Agency to restore power after storms, floods, fires, earthquakes or other disasters, said Paul Gutierrez, an NRECA lobbyist who has been working with lawmakers to fix the problem.
The new bipartisan legislation—the Revitalizing Underdeveloped Rural Areas and Lands (RURAL) Act—would solve the problem by changing the tax code to exempt federal, state and local grants from being defined as income for electric co-ops.
"While continuing to ensure rural electric co-ops are largely funded by their membership as a condition of their tax-exempt status, we should also ensure funds received from grants or for pole usage do not affect their tax status," Adrian Smith said.
"So when I heard from several Minnesota cooperatives at risk of losing their tax-exempt status, I wanted to reverse that," she said.

Q: Is there a way to use custom fonts in a PDF file? Well basically I'm finishing school in mid December so I'm just brushing up my resume and I'm wondering if there's a way to use custom fonts (in this case Calibri and Cambria) in a PDF file and make them render correctly on all computers.
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: I'm using MS Word 2007, but am open to suggestions

A: The PDF format is capable of embedding fonts, if the font has been marked embeddable by its creator.  You'll have to check the software that's creating your PDF to see if it has the capability and how to enable it.

A: PDFs don't store text and fonts like other documents, they actually convert the font to vectors, that way no matter what font you use, the document displays exactly as expected.  This is why searching for text inside the PDF is such a problem for 3rd party PDF Readers and why even Adobe themselves use to distribute 2 versions of Acrobat (one with text search, one without).
Another thing to keep in mind is, PDF isn't pixel exact, it's ratio exact.  PDF readers generally do not use a 100% zoom level, instead most people read them at "fit to screen" or "fit to page".  I point this out because I'm guessing the reason you are trying to use those new Vista/Office 2007 fonts is because of their LCD subpixel support (improves readability on LCD screens).  This feature will not translate into the PDF, since the letter becomes a vector, subpixel information is lost, and even if it wasn't, becomes useless because the vector will be sized to something other than you intended at view time.

A: theoretically speaking, on technical side, embedding/not embedding ability, regarding the fonts, is settled with a special flag in font file (ttf or opentype or type1)
you can view this special embedding flag with any font editor program (I recommend
FontCreator (by High-logic)

*

*http://www.high-logic.com/font-editor/fontcreator.html
with a free trial fully operative and without limitations
you can also change embedding/not embedding flag, but legally speaking, for the 99% of fonts commercially distributed, this breaks the license of font

CSAC Assistant Executive Officer Bill Douglas informed MMWeekly.com of the development Monday afternoon.
The news comes just days after Hieron's original opponent, Nick Diaz, failed to show up for a pre-fight drug test mandated by CSAC.
On Monday, Strikeforce officials and CSAC seemed to disagree on whether Diaz would get a second chance to take the test in Los Angeles. Strikeforce CEO Scott Coker said he would speak to Douglas today to try and resolve the situation.
Diaz's manager, Cesar Gracie, said Diaz vs. Hieron was "highly unlikely" to happen.
Strikeforce officials were unavailable for comment at the time of publication, but MMAWeekly.com sources indicated that the situation was still in motion and that a fight between Hieron and Taylor had not yet been finalized.
Check back with MMAWeekly for full details as the story develops.

Collaboration is Key to Canada's Low-Carbon Future
November 28, 2022 | Canadian Fuels Association, Economy, Energy, Environment, Fuels, Greenhouse Gases, Lower Carbon Future, Policy, Refineries
OTTAWA, Nov. 28, 2022 — As liquid transportation fuels continue to be a critical component of Canada's energy mix for generations to come, collaboration will be key to unlocking their full emissions reduction potential, according to the Canadian Fuels Association's updated Driving to 2050 vision.
Moving Forward Together highlights how the companies that produce and distribute transportation fuels across Canada are forging strategic partnerships to help further decarbonize the transportation sector, creating new employment opportunities for thousands of Canadians and demonstrating that the industry will continue to play a pivotal role in Canada's energy security and reliability.
"Climate change remains one of the biggest challenges of our time, and now more than ever collaboration is key to achieving our emissions reductions goals," said Bob Larocque, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Canadian Fuels Association.
"As we move forward, Canadians will continue to rely on transportation. Having already met Canada's evolving transportation-fuel needs for more than a century, our members will continue to deliver low-carbon transportation options, giving Canadians the ability to make choices based on their own unique needs," says Larocque.
Key highlights from Moving Forward Together:
