In post-hurricane chaos, the rumor-mill activates
THE GUARDIAN , BATON ROUGE, LOUISIANA
There were two babies who had their throats slit. The seven-year- old girl who was raped and murdered in the Superdome. And the corpses laid out amid the excrement in the convention centre.
In a week filled with dreadful scenes of desperation and anger from New Orleans following Hurricane Katrina some stories stood out.
But as time goes on many remain unsubstantiated and may yet prove to be apocryphal.
New Orleans police have been unable to confirm the tale of the raped child, or indeed any of the reports of rapes in the Superdome and convention centre.
And while many claim they happened, no witnesses, survivors or survivors' relatives have come forward.
Nor has the source for the story of the murdered babies, or indeed their bodies been found. And while the floor of the convention centre toilets were indeed covered in excrement, the Guardian found no corpses.
During a week when communications were difficult, rumors have acquired a particular currency. They acquired through repetition the status of established facts.
One French journalist from the daily newspaper Liberation was given precise information that 1,200 people had drowned at Marion Abramson school on Read Boulevard. Nobody at the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) or the New Orleans police force has been able to verify that.
But then FEMA could not confirm there were thousands of people at the convention centre until they were told by the press, for the simple reason that they did not know.
"Katrina's winds have left behind an information vacuum. And that vacuum has been filled by rumor," wrote one reporter.
"There is nothing to correct wild reports that armed gangs have taken over the convention centre," he added.
"You can report them, but you at least have to say they are unsubstantiated and not pass them off as fact," said one Baltimore- based journalist.
"But nobody is doing that."
Either way these rumors have had an effect.
Reports of the complete degradation and violent criminals running rampant in the Superdome suggested a crisis that both hastened the relief effort and demonized those who were stranded.
By the end of last week the media in Baton Rouge reported that evacuees from New Orleans were carjacking, and that guns and knives were being seized in local shelters where riots were erupting.
The local mayor responded accordingly.
"We do not want to inherit the looting and all the other foolishness that went on in New Orleans," Kip Holden told the Baton Rouge Advocate.
"We do not want to inherit that breed that seeks to prey on other people."
The trouble, wrote Howard Witt of the Chicago Tribune is that "scarcely any of it was true -- the police confiscated a single knife from a refugee in one Baton Rouge shelter".
"There were no riots in Baton Rouge. There were no armed hordes."
Similarly when the first convoy of national guardsmen that went into New Orleans approached the convention centre they were ordered to "lock and load".
But when they arrived they were confronted not by armed mobs, but a nurse wearing a T-shirt that read "I love New Orleans".
"She ran down a broken escalator, then held her hands in the air when she saw the guns," wrote the LA Times.
"We have sick kids up here!" she shouted.
"We have dehydrated kids! One kid with sickle cell!"

Select the tried-and-true to support the structure of your garden.
3 What Are the Treatments for Spider Mites on a Honeysuckle Bush?
When you plan your garden, choose hardy landscape plants that will provide constant support. You can rely on these plants, knowing they'll blossom and grow without significant intervention. Planting hardy landscape specimens allows you to focus your efforts on the more delicate plants in your garden while ensuring that the main areas remain attractive and healthy.
A garden hedge defines the spaces of your landscape. A hedge also acts as a visual aid, screening out unsightly items such as an aging fence or pool equipment. When choosing a hedge, select one that resists disease. This type of hardy plant grows and forms into a hedge with minimal shaping and also won't be susceptible to withering or rot. Boxwood (Buxus spp.) hedges provide multiple species that fit the bill. This hardy shrub is both elegant and disease-resistant. Once planted, it requires minimal care to form an attractive hedge, a series of topiaries or a yard screen. It grows best in U.S. Department of Agriculture plant hardiness zones 5 through 9, though the zone varies based on the specific cultivar.
Bats, balls, pets and children require a yard with hardy plants. Tolerant of foot traffic and able to bounce back after blocking or being tackled in an active game of catch, ice plant (Delosperma spp.) provides a hardy edging for your landscape. This tough ground cover takes a beating, bouncing back after being stepped on and tumbled over. Ice plant grows well in USDA zones 8 to 10, though the zone is specific to the cultivar. Ice plant species produce brilliantly colored purple or pink blossoms in mid- to late summer and prefer well-drained soil with full sun to thrive. A low grower, ice plant grows no higher than 6 inches, spreading to produce a mat of ground cover or border edging.
Hardy plants don't have to be unattractive, boring specimens. Select plants that add texture and interest to the garden, supporting a garden bed with variegated leaves or intriguing flowers. New Zealand flax (Phormium spp.) provides both. This flax produces a burst of bright color set against variegated leaves. The species comes in a choice of leaf color; some produce red and brown or chocolate and cream, others produce a gentle cream and green. Suitable for USDA zones 8 through 11, though the zone is specific to the cultivar, this flax is hardy and dramatic. Its sword-shaped leaves create an interesting architectural element suitable for planting in a bed or placing in a container. Some species produce scarlet tube-shaped flowers and grow up to 12 feet tall in summer.
A hardy landscape plant that grows in many types of light is a gardener's aide. These plants do well in conditions ranging from shade to sun. Planted in various locations, Angel's trumpet (Brugmansia spp.) thrives in partial shade to full sun. A member of the nightshade family, Angel's trumpet produce fragrant blossoms that bloom in the evening. The blossoms range in hue from squash-colored to white. These plants are generally hardy in USDA zones 10 and 11, but check the specific cultivar for zone information to ensure it thrives in your garden. Do not plant this fragrant vine, however, if you have dogs or small children, because it can be toxic if ingested.

So impressed was I with the Hero Hotline, I decided to check in on their next issue. It's funny when you have books in your collection for years and years... just sitting there, unread. Just acting like collection fodder... or collection flavor, I suppose. This is just another one of those reasons I started blogging. It gave me a productive excuse (which, perhaps I needed) to dive head-first into my boxes.
An unexpected bonus... I'm actually remembering a lot more of what I read... which, before now, I never realized was a problem. I often think about books I like, or dislike... and I cannot put into words why I feel that way... or even remember parts of the stories that made me feel that way. Suppose that's just one of the disadvantages to trying to think about a million things at once... yeah, that's what I'll go with. Makes me sound smarter than I am!
Now, let's try not to become too transfixed on Mister Muscle's perky bottom on the cover (you just looked, didn't you?), and see what lurks inside!
Note: If you need to catch up, check out my Review/Discussion of Hero Hotline #1 here.
It is the next day at the Hero Hotline, and our young friend Hot Shot is being escorted in by his dear mother. She is upset that her son has been put on the night shift. Why, a superhero could get hurt working at night, don'tcha know? The Coordinator reminds her that her little boy is both legally an adult and contractually obligated to work whatever shift the Hotline requires.
My main man, Voice-Over is reconnoitering with his buddy Invisible Fred over his Martian stakeout the night before. Fred unfortunately has some bad news... it turns out he fell asleep (or, ya know... doesn't exist, and is just V-O throwing his voice...) and missed the entire thing. This morning, the old woman under his protection had vanished. Voice-Over is ordered by the Coordinator to find her.
We observe Diamondette studying for an Anatomy exam. A piece of her background I neglected to include in my previous review is that Diamondette is a Med-School student. As she studies, a report of a school bus hijacking is reported on the television news. It turns out Microwavabelle's three children just so happen to be on board. 'Belle is chomping at the bit to get to the scene, however, is told not to interfere by the Coordinator. He feels the appearance of superheros may cause the situation to escalate.
Voice-Over and Fred arrive at the old woman's house to check for clues. Everything seems normal... boring, even... until, under an easy chair cushion V-O finds an alien ray gun!
Back at the bus, the hijackers begin making their demands. Diamondette and SOOZ do their best to comfort Microwavabelle. A call comes through for Stretch, it's his favorite (read: absolute least favorite) kind of call... a cat stuck in a tree. The guy with the stretchy powers always gets stuck pulling kitties outta trees. He phones his daughter, Eloise and tries to postpone their lunch plans as SOOZ pushes him out the door.
The abusive husband (who we now know as Mr. Bartoli) from the previous issue arrives at HQ. He is both bandaged and lawyered up. Bartoli's lawyer, Mr. Schuster announces that they will be pressing charges against Mister Muscle and the Hero Hotline for damages. Upon hearing this, Mister Muscle does what any defendant would do... oils up!
Stretch arrives at the scene of the missing cat. It turns out this cat chose to get stuck in a tree... on a block absolutely jammed full of trees. What's worse, the Tubby (from Little Lulu) lookalike who called in the ticket hasn't the foggiest idea which tree the kitty ran up. Stretch calls in to see if Private-Eyes can give an assist, P.I's however is just about to head out on a trouble call himself... in search of a lost will. A call he will attend to as soon as he finishes examining Miss Boulder's... er, upper respiratory system.
Microwave Mom can finally stands no more... she heads out to the site of the hijacking. When her absence is discovered, SOOZ assembles and orders the rest of the team to the school bus.
'Belle has a brief standoff with the hijackers, who are now threatening physical violence to one of her own children. She 'waves the knife he is brandishing, causing him to drop it. Even unarmed, he poses a threat. He cinches in a tight headlock on Microwave Mom's daughter.
The team arrives and instantly makes their presence felt. Diamondette uses her diamond-strong hands and slices the bus open. Mister Muscle follows up by turning that slice into a large hole. The other hijacker threatens to detonate a grenade. Luckily, Private-Eyes is present to inform the team that the grenade she's wielding is in fact, a fake.
In the confusion, Microwave Mom fires a 'wave bolt into the first hijacker's gut causing him to release her daughter. Mister Muscle crushes the fake grenade along with the hand that was holding it. Diamondette then slices the first hijacker's gun in half. The police intervene and take control of the situation.
Back at the tree-lined road, Stretch is now calling his daughter to cancel lunch... and try to make dinner plans. Those plans would also fall through, as he continues seeking the cat into the night. Finally, Tubby realizes that his cat was asleep in a box the whole time. Stretch freaks out and runs off as... hey, a Little Lulu lookalike joins Tubby.
Private-Eyes finally arrives to the great will-search, and is led to a room almost packed to the ceiling with paper-filled boxes. Any small talk Private-Eyes attempts is brushed off by the couple. They are only interested in finding their Grandfather's will. Finally, it is located... much to the couple's chagrin, the Grandfather decided to leave them... his collection of important papers.
Microwavabelle and her children arrive back at Hero Hotline HQ. Moments later, Voice-Over (and Fred) enter the scene, alien ray gun in tow. Belle's son instantly recognizes the "ray gun" as a Captain Zingaroo Space Blaster... a toy. Shocked, and embarrassed V-O (annnnd Fred) bolt out of the office to resume their search.
I'm still digging this. Hero Hotline has proved to be a ton more fun than I was expecting. In this part, we begin to flesh out some of the players. Much of the information which was relegated to the "character bios" that closed out in issue #1 are now being peppered into the narrative.
We see Microwavabelle as a mother to her actual children, and not her teammates. Her emotional outbursts throughout are just what one would expect from a mother whose children are in any sort of danger. At one point she reflects back to having lost her husband... that would certainly compound her feelings of dread and urgency in this situation.
We get a brief look into Hot Shot's home life. He may technically be an adult, however, from even his small part in this issue, we can see that he is not quite equipped to be one. His mother still "babies" him, and it appears as though he treats this job as a 16-year old would treat an after school job at McDonald's.
Diamondette is that person you would see when you were working a crappy part-time job. They would have their school books with them, and they wouldn't ordinarily socialize with the group. They were the ones that wanted more for their lives than a menial entry-level gig, but knew they needed some way to support themselves while continuing their education. I've seen that person... hell, I currently am that person.
Stretch's story is broadened a bit. We now know he has a daughter with whom he is having trouble connecting. We can tell that he wants this job at the Hotline to be more than what it is. He's is sickened at the thought of being relegated to "cat rescue" guy... but, he performs to the best of his abilities... for one reason or another.
Upcoming plot threads are hinted at quite handily. The pending lawsuit from Mr. Bartoli is surely something that will be revisited. The wedding of Private-Eyes to Miss Boulder may also pan out in the remaining issues. We still haven't seen the Coordinator yet, either. Will be present himself? Speaking of people we "haven't seen", we will have the continuing story of Fred and Voice-Over as they hunt for their client.
A lot of stuff to look forward to... and (without nit-picks) not a single complaint. I'm looking forward to seeing how this one plays out. Still recommended, definitely check this series out.!
The first "prestige format" book I'd ever seen in a cheap-o bin.
Very odd book. I hope the crapbox provides one. It comes off as parody and slapstick, which isn't bad but certainly an something DC hoped to find a payoff with. This would have been 2 years into Giffen's JL run and DC might have been trying to get lightening to strike twice.
Better that than any of the grim-gritty stuff that would follow.
Nice catch on the Tubby and Lulu. That's kind of awesome.
This is a lot like if Bob Rozakis was writing the JLI... I never thought of that. It's pretty soapy, has some silly... but can take a turn for the serious.
I knew that chubby boy's sailor suit had to mean something! I was (sadly) quite satisfied with my powers of perception when Lulu showed up!


I will be in my humble cave till I-don't-know when… please understand I want to be alone. I'm fine just really tired and don't wana laugh, entertain or even talk.
p/s: yes, I drew this. Cute huh.
p/ssss: please save all unnecessary comments to yourself and comment only if necessary. Thank u.
mood of frustration and lost. the picture explain clearly.
look far, brighter and of course the opportunity. staying on e the same root will rot sooner or later. if talk fail, time to dig urself out to another.


Would allow commissioners more time to consider long-term issues.
Would coordinate the activities of all departments under the jurisdiction of the county board, thereby streamlining the process of government.
Would provide readily available professional expertise on complex matters of development and growth.
A probable annual expenditure for the two offices of about $200,000. Costs for the first year would be somewhat higher because of the need to purchase office furniture, office supplies and other items.
The creation of a level of bureaucracy between county residents and the elected body of commissioners.
The possibility of political contention between the professional staff and the elected commissioners.

Family Values: Between Neoliberalism and the New Social Conservatism
Zone Books

$13.97/£11.89
Why was the discourse of family values so pivotal to the conservative and free-market revolution of the 1980s and why has it continued to exert such a profound influence on American political life? Why have free-market neoliberals so often made common cause with social conservatives on the question of family, despite their differences on all other issues?
In this book, Melinda Cooper challenges the idea that neoliberalism privileges atomized individualism over familial solidarities, and contractual freedom over inherited status. Delving into the history of the American poor laws, she shows how the liberal ethos of personal responsibility was always undergirded by a wider imperative of family responsibility and how this investment in kinship obligations recurrently facilitated the working relationship between free-market liberals and social conservatives.
Neoliberalism, she argues, must be understood as an effort to revive and extend the poor law tradition in the contemporary idiom of household debt. As neoliberal policymakers imposed cuts to health, education, and welfare budgets, they simultaneously identified the family as a wholesale alternative to the twentieth-century welfare state. And as the responsibility for deficit spending shifted from the state to the household, the private debt obligations of family were defined as foundational to socio-economic order. Despite their differences, neoliberals and social conservatives were in agreement that the bonds of family needed to be encouraged — and at the limit enforced — as a necessary counterpart to market freedom.
In a series of case studies ranging from Clinton's welfare reform to the AIDS epidemic, and from same-sex marriage to the student loan crisis, Cooper explores the key policy contributions made by neoliberal economists and legal theorists. Only by restoring the question of family to its central place in the neoliberal project, she argues, can we make sense of the defining political alliance of our times, that between free-market economics and social conservatism.
"Cooper's book leaves us with a bleakly realistic account of the (often Christian) rightwing patriarchal forces whose resoundingly angry response to feminist and pro-welfare activism has sought to stifle the impact of the women's movement from the 1960s onwards, especially in regard to economic, racial and reproductive freedoms. One might assume that similar ideas are at work in the Trump administration today. Under the weight of such antagonism the tenacity of feminism is nothing short of miraculous, and Cooper's sombre analysis serves to remind the pro-feminist left and the women's movement of how few in number we are, and have been."—Angela McRobbie, openDemocracy
"Melinda Cooper brings sharp feminist insights to clarify a range of topics in 'everyday neoliberalism' overlooked in the earlier literature . . . . This history is vital for an understanding of the modern neoliberal order." — Philip Mirowski, author of Never Let A Serious Crisis Go To Waste
"This is the book I've been waiting for….This brilliantly argued synthesis leaves no room for left critique that cannot recognize sexual normativity as the keystone of both neoliberal and socially conservative efforts to contain the most radical redistributive potential of liberation movements." — Bethany E. Moreton, author of To Serve God and Wal-mart: The Making of Christian Free Enterprise
"In this intellectual tour de force that combines rigorous empirical evidence with breathtaking theoretical finesse, Melinda Cooper argues that neoliberal economics breeds multiple forms of fundamentalism as well as structural inequalities that hit the most intimate aspects of our existence . . . . An absolute must read." — Rosi Braidotti, author of The Posthuman

It might be 'beginning to look a lot like Christmas' out and about but now is the time to start bringing it to the table too. With just three weeks to go to the big day why not start by giving your breakfast a little festive flavour with this super easy Christmas Compote. Made with frozen berries, spices, orange zest and a dash of spirits too, you can start your day with yuletide yumminess. Serve over porridge enriched with a spoon of nut butter (see previous blog) or with Greek yogurt and sprinkle with chopped pistachio nuts. Alternatively, it makes a delicious dessert served with meringues and cream.
Simply tip the frozen berries in to a large saucepan and place on a low heat to slowly defrost.
Add the sugar, cinnamon sticks and star anise.
Remove the zest from the orange by using a vegetable peeler to remove large strips. Be careful not to remove the pith too as this can be bitter. Add to the saucepan.
Gently stir until the sugar has dissolved and the fruit has fully defrosted.
Remove from heat and stir in a dash of Amaretto or the liqueur of your choice.
Cover with a lid and leave to macerate overnight in a cool pace.
Remove the spices and orange zest then pour the compote into two large jam jars or a large plastic container and cover with a secure lid.


This Week in Where Did the Time Go?: A couple of my friends have kids graduating high school this month and that means graduation parties. There are two fascinating parts about graduation parties for kids I've known their whole lives. 1) I can't help but think about the graduate as a baby. It's weird. I see my friends' kids all the time, but milestone moments like graduations always remind me of like the time I first saw them as a baby. And, 2) It's a great joy to watch the grandma/grandpa generation somehow all end up together commenting on where the time has gone. That means discussing everyone at the party in terms of "I remember when" while also discussing a run-down of all the people they've known who have died, and mixing all of this with descriptions their various geriatric ailments, and medical treatment. Living history!
This Week in Employment: I got a job. I also got a drug test. Peeing in a cup is not a great skill of mine. My highest degree of difficulty is hovering over a port-a-potty. Peeing in a cup, and, because of my lack of skill and fear of dropping the cup, a little on my hand is a humbling and gross way to start the day.
The sun rises on pee-in-a-cup palace.
This Week in Women's Restrooms: Since I'm already talking about peeing, here's a observation from a restaurant bathroom this week. Speaking only from my knowledge of using women's restroom's, women will daintily place their used paper towels in the wastebasket, and continuing to add towels like hygiene-Jenga stacking higher and higher. I don't have super hero skills, but I can provide a small service to women (and to employees) by pushing the paper towels into the bag. You're welcome!
Look like a full can…doesn't stop women from daintily adding more towels on top.
Oh wait! Plenty of space.
This Week in Space: I mean literally, how much space people take up. Goodfellas Pizza in OTR is housed in small store front. The pizza ovens and pizza crust tossing and a display case of cooked pizza is on one side of the main room and that doesn't leave a lot of space for customers to move around. When I walked in it looked like the line was about half way down the counter, a weirdly long line for a Tuesday night. That's when I realized it wasn't a line, it was just two guys. They were taking up about 50% of the space and, even worse, they were indecisive orderers. I just felt like I was so far away from the cash register. Maybe I'm wrong, but line-etiquette suggests you move in a little when someone gets in line behind you. Or, maybe I was just hungry and cranky!
This Week in Don't Waste Alcohol: The best part of being a regular at a restaurant is when the bartender makes an error, I am there go-to person to not let that mis-poured drink go to waste. That's how my one beer with dinner became a beer and a sangria. So sorry the customer meant white sangria.
Staying hydrated and cleaning up pouring errors.

Patricia Piccinini: Kindred
Patricia Piccinini "Kindred"
14 - 19 September, 2021
Gallery 10, Cromwell Place, London, United Kingdom
Arndt Art Agency is pleased to stage the presentation of a seminal work by leading Australian artist Patricia Piccinini, best known for her transgenic menagerie of disturbing, hyperrealistic creatures. Constructed from silicone and fiberglass, these hybrid sculptures investigate the potential rise of new and troubling developments through the advance of biotechnology and genetic manipulation.
Exploring concepts of what is "natural" in the digital age, Patricia Piccinini brings a deeply personal perspective to her work. Patricia Piccinini is one of Australia's most acclaimed contemporary artists whose startling sculptures examine the connections between science and nature, art and the environment. Audiences are drawn to Piccinini's "hyper-realist" sculptures because they appear so real, yet they are creatures of the artist's imagination developed to consider a strange new world of artificial or mutant beings derived from experimental biotechnology. From the mapping of the human genome to the growth of human tissue and organs from stem cells, Piccinini's art charts a terrain in which scientific progress and ethical questions are intertwined. Created using a combination of materials such as silicone, fibreglass and human hair, Piccinini's sculptures are familiar yet fantastical in their depiction of possible future species and their interaction with human beings. Often confronting yet endearingly vulnerable, her sculptures give form to her fascination with the relationship between the 'natural' and the 'artificial' while asserting the power of social relationships, love and communication. Piccinini's work is fundamentally about the human condition, despite the quasi-human appearance of her sculptures. The artist sees them as 'beautiful rather than grotesque, miraculous rather than freakish. Both impressive and disconcerting, these sculptures intimate that humans can manipulate but not control life or evolution.
Entitled "Kindred", the project takes its name from the title of the spectacular sculpture on display within Gallery 10. Here the artist's characteristic employment and fusion of human and animal traits within her work is embodied: An orangutan-like mother gently holds her two babies. Forms are fluid here, as Piccinini probes the boundaries demarking artificial from natural, human from the posthuman. She leaves viewers with no easy answers, suggesting the borders are unstable, mutable and in flux, thus encouraging further investigation from her audience. With this universal embrace and maternal scene, "Kindred" is emblematic of Piccinini's interest in creating empathy in the audience.
Artist quote: "The idea that we as humans are uniquely and fundamentally different from other animals is a cornerstone of how humans have traditionally seen ourselves. It is this specialness that allows us to exploit the environment and other beings around us so completely. However, both genetic analysis and observation is now showing how small that difference really is. We see common DNA everywhere and common behaviours in many other animals, especially in primates. Like us, orangutan mothers keep their children close and educate them over many years. If I want my children to eat vegetables, I just tell them I am their orangutan mother. In this work, we see three unique individuals each set at a different point on a continuum of greater or less animalness. However, the point is not their difference, it is their connection."
Kindred has previously been exhibition in the following important exhibitions: Curious Affection, Gallery of Modern Art, Brisbane, Australia (2018) (solo); Future and the Arts: AI, Robotics, Cities, Life - How Humanity Will Live Tomorrow, Mori Museum, Tokyo, Japan (2019) (group); The XXII Triennale di Milano, Broken Nature, Palazzo dell Arte, Milan, Italy (2019) (group); En Kaerlig Verden, Arken Museum, Copenhagen, Denmark (2019) (group); Through Love, TarraWarra Museum of Art, Melbourne, Australia (2018) (solo); Omfamna Framtiden, Boras Museum of Art, Boras Sweden (2020) (solo); and Curious Imaginings, Vancouver Biennale at the Patricia Hotel, Vancouver, Canada (2018) (solo).

Competency cultivation and campus connection were themes at this year's Professional Development Conference.
Bryan Alexander, renowned futurist, researcher and consultant in the field of how technology transforms education, was the keynote speaker for the May 16 Professional Development Conference.
The King Center was packed with more than 375 Roadrunners learning best practices and networking with others this past Tuesday for the Eighth Annual Professional Development Conference.
Amber Mozet, committee cochair, and Danielle Farrell, committee cochair and event coordinator, kicked it all off by welcoming attendees. Planning committee member Kathleen Jewby discussed the conference theme, "Optimistic Uncertainty," before introducing MSU Denver President Steve Jordan who shared some of the challenges faced by taking the school from college to University.
"Optimism is the antidote for the euphoria of the highs of being on top, and of the lows when you don't know if you're going to get there," Jordan said.
He then introduced keynote speaker, Bryan Alexander, renowned futurist, researcher and consultant in the field of how technology transforms education.
Alexander's far-ranging discussion looked at trend analyses and the intersections of higher education with broad advances of society. He discussed the globalization of higher education as a remix of what college means in a fund-strapped environment, as well as the transforming technological and labor situations students will enter.
Attendees at both conference sessions then chose among MSU Denver Talks (20-minute groupings of three presentations), workshops (hour-long traditional presentations), or rotating roundtable discussions. Breakout session topics ranged from technology or progress and innovation, future trends in higher education, personal wellness, learned optimism, and diversity and equity.
For attendee Truong Nguyen, desktop systems engineering manager, the benefits of attending are why he keeps coming back to each year's conference – now for his fourth time.
"The keynote was incredibly relevant to understanding the atmosphere of what's happening worldwide in higher education, and the sessions share takeaways for collaboration," he said.

Nice, jewel of the Côte d'Azur, is a blend of glamour, charm, culture, energy, relaxation and nightlife. During your stay in the Hotel de Berne, you'll have the opportunity to discover why foreign tourists and the French alike adore this city and why it is the second most popular city for tourists in France after Paris.
Nice is the ideal destination for relaxing on the shore of the incredible turquoise waters of the Mediterranean and for sunbathing on its urban beach and at beaches in surrounding areas, practically year-round. Enjoy a stroll along the sea on its attractive Promenade des Anglais that carries this name because, at the beginning of the 20th century, the majority of the buildings on this avenue were bought or constructed by wealthy Englishmen in search of the mild Mediterranean climate. Majestic buildings from the Belle époque will not go unnoticed. From the Hotel de Berne, visitors can get to this promenade by tram in just ten minutes.
After exploring the splendor of this zone, we suggest that you wander the magical streets of the Vieille Ville (historic quarter), where you can observe the Italian influence and will have the impression that you are in a Tuscan villa. Here, it will be impossible for you to resist the charming shops that sell local products and souvenirs.
Enjoy your meal ou buon appetito?
It's time to forget about your diet and enjoy the local cuisine. Especially noteworthy is the peasant and Mediterranean cuisine, such as the niçoise salad, the tourte de blettes (a type of Swiss chard pie), or the ratatouille. In addition, Nice considers itself the inventor of the gnocchi and ravioli, which is logical considering its historical past with Italy. Nevertheless, its most famous dish is the pissaladière, a type of pastry pizza with garden vegetables and anchovies.
Aside from the pleasure of dining in its countless restaurants, bars, nightclubs, and hotels, the city has an excellent cultural offering. Nice, that is famed for its special light that numerous artists have attempted to capture, has been nourished by the heritage left by those people who have passed through the city before. The most significant places of interest and monuments are the Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, the Fine Arts Museum, the National Marc Chagall Museum and, of course, the Matisse Museum. The Matisse Museum is found on Cimiez hill, where visitors can also find the Franciscan monastery and roman ruins. It is upon this very hill that the Nice Jazz Festival takes place each July, and in February, Nice's Carnival enjoys great popularity.
Other must-see places of interest are the Parc du Château (Castle Park), with impressive gardens and views from the romantic Colline du Château; the Place Masséna (square), where a diversity of shows and entertainment take place; the Palais de Justice (Law Courts); the Palais de la Préfecture (palace); the Cours Saleya and flower markets, in which you can take in the airs of Provence; the Saint-Nicolas Orthodox Cathedral, and the Opera House.
If you have time, don't miss the chance to tour and visit the Côte d'Azur. The Hotel de Berne, being located close to the station, is the perfect starting point from which you can visit the picturesque surrounding zones such as Antibes Jean-les-Pins, Beaulieu-sur-mer, Biot, Villefranche-sur-mer, Cap d'Ail… or more glamorous places such as Monaco, Saint-Tropez and Cannes.


The world première of a new musical adaptation of David Walliams's The Boy in the Dress is one of the highlights of the winter 2019 season at the Royal Shakespeare Company.
The new musical, with songs by Robbie Williams and Guy Chambers, will be adapted by Mark Ravenhill and will play for 18 weeks in the Royal Shakespeare Theatre from November. RSC artistic director Gregory Doran will direct.
Walliams said, "I'm delighted to be working with the Royal Shakespeare Company to bring this, my first children's novel, to the stage. It's now 10 years since The Boy in the Dress was published and we've come a long way in that time.
Ravenhill commented, "I first came across The Boy in the Dress when I was playwright in residence at the RSC in 2012. I remember thinking that it was such a gripping, entertaining and life-affirming story with all the ingredients of a great stage show.
Robbie Williams and Guy Chambers added, "we're beyond excited to be working with the RSC on our first musical theatre collaboration. We're both big fans of David's books so when he approached us about writing the soundtrack to a new musical version of The Boy in the Dress we were genuinely delighted.
The Boy in the Dress will run from 8 November 2019 until 8 March 2020.
RSC deputy artistic director Erica Whyman will curate a new season of work in the Swan Theatre including Shakespeare's King John, a co-commission with Edinburgh's Royal Lyceum Theatre, A Museum in Baghdad by Hannah Khalil and The Whip by Juliet Gilkes Romero.
Doran said, "continuing our commitment to producing theatre that's relevant to everyone, this season brings together perhaps Shakespeare's most contemporary of history plays and three new works, each of which—in their own way—channel Shakespeare's spirit through beautifully crafted storytelling, richness of character and looking in the eye the biggest questions of our time.
"We're now two-thirds of the way through our project to stage every Shakespeare play in the First Folio. For our 25th Shakespeare production in the canon, we welcome emerging talent Eleanor Rhode in her RSC debut directing King John.
King John will run from 19 September until 21 March, A Museum in Baghdad from 11 October until 25 January and The Whip from 1 February until 21 March.
The RSC First Encounters with Shakespeare series will continue with a new production of The Merchant of Venice directed and edited by Robin Belfield. The production will open in schools followed by performances in the Swan Theatre from 30 September until 5 October. The production will then go on a seven-week tour of schools and regional theatres across England.


Committed to providing our guests with the most unforgettable stay, the Temple Bar Inn offers a range of facilities and services to ensure just that. Enjoy a coffee from our complimentary snack station in our beautifully designed bespoke lobby. With elements that blend Celtic influence and modern industrial design, each area is filled with character. Enjoy our exclusive ground floor terrace with complimentary newspapers.

Reports had suggested that the Old Trafford hierarchy were beginning to lose faith in the United boss after a difficult season, with the 3-0 Premier League humbling against Liverpool at the weekend only increasing the speculation surrounding the Scot.
But Robin van Persie helped lift the gloom on Wednesday with a hat-trick as United completed a remarkable comeback and moved into the quarter-finals of the Champions League with a 3-0 win on the night to secure a 3-2 aggregate win.
The relief among the home supporters at the final whistle was obvious, but Moyes shrugged off any suggestions that the last-16 clash was a pivotal point in his managerial career.
"People will probably think turning points in people's careers, but I didn't see it that way because I know what the club have got here and the club know what they've got here, and I see myself being here for a long time," he told Sky Sports.
"I'm not feeling any pressure from inside the club. Everybody's fine, we know exactly the job we have to do.
"It's a big job, probably bigger than maybe we all expected when I first came in, but the players have been great. I keep hearing things about 'this one's fallen out' or 'someone else has fallen out' and I keep telling people it's rubbish. People are trying to look for reasons why we're not doing well - the reasons are we've just not played well enough in the games and that's the truth behind it all."
The Scot went on to express his delight with the manner of the performance as United overturned their two-goal first-leg deficit, particularly in light of the disappointing loss to Liverpool.
"The way the players responded after Sunday's defeat - I did say on Monday morning we have to win 3-0 and give the crowd something back, because the crowd here have been incredible, they really have," he continued.
"Even tonight, they were fantastic, so they deserved a good night because we've not given them many good nights this season.
"The players were incredibly committed. I think they're hurting as well. They know we're not doing as well as we should and we certainly didn't play well in Olympiacos.
"But tonight they put it right, we deserved it."
Moyes reserved special praise for 40-year-old Ryan Giggs, who completed the full 90 minutes and played a major part in the build-up to two of United's goals.
"I thought Giggsy was fantastic, he really was," he added. "The passes he made for the two goals, his general play and, more importantly, his general fitness.
"Sometimes you're thinking he might need to come off after 60 minutes, but he's a freak, he really is, he's something different.
"It was a big night, we needed it, we were off the back of a bad result, I thought we needed his experience and he certainly showed it."
Meanwhile, Moyes played down fears after Van Persie was carried off on a stretcher late on, insisting that his knee injury was "not that bad".


This February will take me on yet another crazy adventure… this time to the Bronx in NYC & Malawi, a small, scenic country in southeastern Africa.
After discussing a bit more about the project, Esther and I sent through a proposal to Carrie Pena, buildOn's National Communications Director. I met up with Carrie at the Ace Hotel in Manhattan last year, all the while learning that we shared a common love for Austin, Texas. The meeting went smoothly and things continued to move forward.
Stay posted for updates here and on my Twitter account @sydneyberryling. Cheers!

A Departure from India's Age-Old Israeli Policy!
by Gollamudi Radha Krishna Murty
Much against the known voting pattern dealing with Israel-Palestine issues in multilateral bodies like the UN, India, for the first time on June 6th, voted in favour of the decision proposed by Israel to deny the observer status to Shahed, a Palestinian NGO, at the UN's Economic and Social Council along with countries such as the US, France, Germany, Japan, the UK, South Korea and Canada.
This pro-Israeli vote obviously made the media to comment that this move is 'unprecedented', 'rare' and some even considered this as a beginning of watering down India's "decades old position on the two state theory". Israel, on the other hand, welcomed it while its Prime Minster, Benjamin Netanyahu personally thanked Prime Minister Narendra Modi for India's supporting vote.
This raises a battery of questions: Is this move, as the media termed, a realignment of India's policy towards Israel and Palestine? Is this an effective indicator of a shift in India's policy? Is India truly becoming independent-enough to pursue its own geo-political interests without getting bogged down by age-old sentiments?
To better appreciate these questions and the answers thereof, we need to first take a look at the hitherto practised India's Israeli policy. It is Mahatma Gandhi, who with his grandeur of soul and its moral authority, steadfast purity of purpose and service had become the father of the nation, whose thoughts indeed constituted the very signposts of post-independent India.
One such guiding post is his opinion on the Jewish-Arab conflict in Palestine. In the context of The League of Nations conferring on Britain a mandate to administer Palestine and to assist in the creation thereof a Jewish homeland, Gandhi favoured a consensus in Palestine. He categorically stated in his article of 1938 in Harijan that "the cry for the national home for the Jews does not make much appeal to me." Instead, he wanted a consensus not on the partition of Palestine but on a common citizenship and political compromise in an undivided Palestine, for he believed that "Palestine belongs to the Arabs in the same sense that England belongs to the English or France to the French".
This view of Gandhi on Palestine conflict that emerged in the intervening period of two World Wars is one aspect of his political philosophy that has somehow not attracted much attention from the current crop of intellectuals/researchers engaged in studying international affairs. There is, of course, a strong opinion among those concerned with the issue that Gandhi had reasons of his own for favouring consensus on Palestine issue. According to this school of thought, one compelling reason for Gandhi to air such an opinion could have been the mounting domestic challenge of creating harmony and concord among the two major Indian communities, Hindus and Muslims, which was a must for Gandhi during India's freedom-movement. Another reason that often came into light is the request of Indian Muslims to the Indian Congress to extend support to Ottoman Caliph, who at the end of First World War lost temporal jurisdiction on Palestine.
This struggle of Gandhi to build unity among the major communities and thereby withstand the bitter contest emanating from Jinnah and his Muslim league (Simone Painter-Brick, 2009) to remain as the sole spokesman of India's freedom-movement appeared to have compelled him to favour a consensus in Palestine.
There is yet another opinion which was of course not that frequently heard of: Kumaraswamy (2017) wondered if the pursuit of galvanizing the Hindu-Muslim unity and the "oversensitivity towards the religious minority" deprived Gandhi the analytical clarity over the Palestine issue. According to him, Gandhi, though said that "his sympathies are with the Jews" harboured antipathy to the Zionist cause, perhaps, more out of his political compulsions rather than any ethical or moral dictates of his political philosophy.
Irrespective of these arguments, the fact remains that it is Gandhi's opinion which had defined independent India's foreign policy—its principled solidarity with the Palestine cause had not allowed Israeli embassy to come up in New Delhi for the first 45 years after the independence. But once diplomatic ties were established, India's relations with Israel had undergone significant transition. In the recent past, this relationship has indeed appeared to be on a positive trajectory.
With the recent visit of Israeli President to India and the visit of India's Prime minister for the first time to Israel has further consolidated defence ties, technological relations and political links between the two. This growing proximity of India towards Israel, particularly, India's deepening military and strategic engagement subtly points out that Indian foreign policy is slowly turning out to be dictated by its geopolitical concerns rather than meekly submitting to one leader's dictum. Indeed, Indo-Israel relations have reached a new high under the present government, for it has de-hyphenated India's relationship with Israel from Palestine. Today, India has become a top customer of Israel's defense industry with an annual bill of $ 1 bn.
Now, reverting to the India's June 6th vote, one must be candid-enough to admit that this vote is a significant message from India to the effect that it is willing to take an independent stand on each issue based on its own merits rather than going by an all-encompassing policy dictum. In the instant case India, perhaps guided by the fact that the said NGO, as Israel said, did not disclose its ties with Hamas, which has been described by many European countries as a terrorist organization, had chosen to vote differently. Hence this vote needs to be contextualised for right analysis, for as early as on December 6, 2018, India voted against Israel's position by supporting a Resolution for the "achievement, without delay, of a comprehensive, just and lasting peace in the Middle East on the basis of the relevant United Nations resolutions".
Nevertheless, the ongoing transition in Indo-Israel relationship reveals the fact of India trying to balance its relationship with Israel with its historical support to the Palestine cause. The recent high-level official visits between the two countries though reveals growing strategic military and economic cooperation between India and Israel, one must admit that India is still taking all the precautions not to antagonize Arab countries. In short, this balancing act merely indicates that there is no reversal in India's relationship policies with Israel but only managing the relationship cautiously issue by issue, of course, with a focus on its geopolitical interests. A new dawn, perhaps!

Sunday Bird Droppings: The pension plan minutiae edition
Following a New York Daily News article alleging an MLB pension investigation, MLB denied any Orioles wrongdoing.

There are now 158 days remaining until Orioles Opening Day 2021.
On Saturday, Bill Madden of the New York Daily News reported that Orioles GM Mike Elias is under investigation by the league over a complaint about the O's handling of a pension plan.
The specifics as laid out by Madden are that Orioles director of pitching Chris Holt was one of four coaches listed as eligible to qualify for the MLBPA pension plan. Each team is allowed to choose four coaches in this way, he says. However, Madden writes that only full-time, uniformed coaches are eligible to be included on this list. It is Elias' responsibility as GM to name the coaches who qualify for the pension, Madden says.
The Baltimore Sun's Nathan Ruiz reported on the allegation later on Saturday, noting that it was "vehemently denied" by Major League Baseball, which gave the following statement:
Major League Baseball is completely comfortable with the Orioles' coaching designations for the 2020 season, which are not only consistent with the terms of the pension plan but were approved in advance by MLB and shared prior to the start of the season with representatives from the Major League Baseball Players Association. The suggestion that there is an ongoing investigation that could result in discipline is simply false.
A cursory Googling by an interested observer turns up this link on the MLB website, which appears to be the current document outlining the MLB pension plan. It specifies the following under "Who Is Eligible":
If you work as a coach, a trainer, an assistant trainer/physical therapist, or a manager after that date, you are eligible to participate in the Pension Plan if a club designates you to participate in the Pension Plan.
This language is clearly inclusive of coaches beyond simply uniformed personnel on the MLB staff, contrary to what Madden says. Trainers and physical therapists do not get uniform numbers, yet they can be designated.
I cannot say that the text has not changed since whenever this was uploaded to the MLB site. Sometimes on the Internet, old links have bad information. In searching last night, I did not find any public document that contradicts it. MLB's statement certainly seems to show that they find no fault with Holt's inclusion. Let's hope that's the final twist of the story and that we never have to think about this again after today.
Beyond this odd pension business, there are slim pickings for fresh Orioles thoughts from the media on the last Sunday in October.
A player that got away is still raking years later (Steve Melewski)
Steve Melewski is referring to Nelson Cruz, although if you are a regular Camden Chat reader, you surely didn't need a Steve Melewski article to tell you that Nelson Cruz has done a lot of slugging since the Orioles refused to give him a fourth contract year after the 2014 season.
There are a couple of former Orioles who were born on this day. They are: 1983/88 reserve outfielder Tito Landrum, and 1960 three-gamer Bobby Thomson.
Is today your birthday? Happy birthday to you! Your birthday buddies for today include: Dodge co-founder John Francis Dodge (1864), famously angry basketball coach Bobby Knight (1940), comedian Samantha Bee (1969), author Zadie Smith (1975), and singer-songwriter Katy Perry (1984).
In 1415, during the Hundred Years War, England's Henry V led his outnumbered force to victory over the French in the Battle of Agincourt.
In 1812, during the War of 1812, Maryland-born naval commander Stephen Decatur led his ship, USS United States, in capturing the British frigate HMS Macedonian.
In 1854, during the Crimean War, the Allies attacked the Russians in the Battle of Balaclava, an ultimately indecisive battle. An ill-fated charge in the battle became memorialized in The Charge of the Light Brigade poem by Alfred, Lord Tennyson.
In 1944, during World War II, the Japanese navy attacked in force to try to disrupt the Allied invasion of the Phillippines, resulting in a substantial Allied victory in the Battle of Leyte Gulf. In terms of total personnel involved, this is thought to be the largest naval battle in history. It was the first battle with Japanese planes engaging in organized kamikaze missions, and it was the last naval battle to feature combat between battleships.
And that's the way it is in Birdland on October 25. Have a safe Sunday.

Final Fantasy XIV beta application site goes live
Prologue video for A Realm Reborn also released
Patrick Budmar (PC World) on 10 January, 2013 09:43
Players keen to get an early taste of Square Enix's Final Fantasy XIV reboot, subtitled A Realm Reborn, can do so by signing up for the beta.
Following the conclusion of alpha tests in December, The Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn beta test application site has gone live, with beta testing expected to take place in mid-February.
Any Australian gamers wanting to try the game before its release can sign up at the European portal.
A Realm Reborn is a retooling of Final Fantasy XIV following the lacklustre response the publisher received to the original release of the game in 2010, which led to a switch in development teams.
The new game aims to address the criticisms of the earlier release by making use of a new engine, better server structures, reworked gameplay, and streamlined interface.
As well as applying for the beta test, players can see how the game is shaping up with a newly released prologue video.

A New Reason to Not Buy These Cheap Android Devices: Complimentary Malware
By Rhett Jones on at
Researchers at Avast Threat Labs say that more than 100 different low-cost Android devices from manufacturers like ZTE, Archos, and myPhone come with malware pre-installed. Users in more than 90 countries, including the UK, are said to be infected. The good news is there's a fix.
According to the report, this adware variant has been in the wild for three years. It's called "Cosiloon" and was first noticed by Dr. Web in 2016. Because it's located in the device's firmware, it's extremely difficult to remove. Avast has detected its presence on 18,000 of its users' devices, so far.
Cosiloon has evolved and been updated over the years while largely using the same methods. In one variant, an application is located on the /system partition that downloads a manifest of instructions for which services to start and further downloads. A payload is then installed that serves pop-up ads that your twitchy fingers will likely click inadvertently and could lead to other security issues.
The second variant is less common and is embedded deep in Android's essential functions. Avast writes, "samples we examined were also infected with two more malware packages, all capable of showing apps, installing additional APKs from the internet and submitting private data such as IMEI, Mac address and phone number to remote servers, but their code seems unrelated to the Cosiloon family."
Samples of pop-up ads (Screenshot: Avast)
Google, Facebook, and Baidu ad frameworks were present in the payload, and in Avast's tests, the researchers were "offered downloads of questionable games from the Baidu network."
Almost all of the devices that have been found to come with the malware were not certified by Google and the installer was added by the manufacturer, OEM, or carrier somewhere along the supply chain. After Avast contacted the company hosting the attacker's command and control server, an updated version of the malware was released on 17 April 2018. This version is less stealthy and was likely cobbled together quickly. Avast has been in contact with Google and says the tech giant has reached out to the firmware developers to encourage them to take care of the issue.
At this point, the researchers have listed 142 devices that are affected but not every unit of a specific model will be a problem because of variants in firmware. Google Play Protect should be able to spot and disable Cosiloon and you can use a reputable antivirus app to manually uninstall the payload. [Avast via Engadget]

Серая синица () — вид воробьинообразных птиц из рода синицы. Этот вид включает несколько подвидов, все они ранее рассматривались в составе вида . Это птицы с серой спиной и белыми брюшком и грудью. Большие синицы (в узком смысле) отличаются зеленоватой спиной и жёлтой нижней стороной. Этот вид распространён в некоторых районах Передней Азии, во всей Южной Азии и в Юго-Восточной Азии.

Описание

Как и у других представителей этого рода, для данного вида характерна широкая чёрная полоса вдоль брюшка и отсутствие хохолка. Этот вид входит в весьма запутанную группу видов, но отличается от других видов тем,  что у него серая спина, черная шапочка, белые пятна на щеках и белая грудь. Брюшная сторона белая с чёрной центральной полосой, идущей по всей длине. Самка имеет более узкую брюшную полосу и немного тусклее. Надхвостье пепельное, рулевые перья хвоста черноватые, но внешние опахала четырёх пар центральных рулевых пепельные, у всех рулевых кроме центральной пары на вершинах есть белые пятна. Пятая пара рулевых почти полностью белая с чёрным стержнем и черной полосой вдоль стержня на внутреннем опахале. Внешние пары рулевых перьев все белые с чёрным стержнем. Подхвостье чёрное в центре, но белое по бокам.

Подвиды
В этот вид включены несколько подвидов, ранее включенных в вид . У всех этих подвидов  у взрослых птиц серая, а не зеленоватая окраска спины, хотя молодые птицы некоторых подвидов имеют зеленую спину и желтоватую нижнюю часть. Все подвиды  территориально обособленны и различаются, в основном, оттенками серого окраски спины, развитием белых пятен на опахалах внешних рулевых перьев, и размерами, хотя разница в размерах, в основном, . По данным базы Международного союза орнитологов в состав вида Parus cinereus входят 13 подвидов:
 Parus cinereus ambiguus (Raffles, 1822) — обитает на полуострове Малакка и на острове Суматре. Номер ITIS: 922447.
 Parus cinereus caschmirensis E. J. O. Hartert, 1905 — обитает на северо-востоке Афганистана, севере Пакистана и северо-западе Индии. Имеет серое пятно на затылке. Номер ITIS: 922448.
 Parus cinereus cinereus  Vieillot, 1818 — номинативный подвид,  обитает на острове Ява и на Малых Зондских островах. Номер ITIS: 922449.
 Parus cinereus decolorans Koelz, 1939 — обитает на северо-востоке Афганистана и на северо-западе Пакистана. Номер ITIS: 922450.
 Parus cinereus hainanus E. J. O. Hartert, 1905 — обитает на острове Хайнань. Номер ITIS: 922451.
 Parus cinereus intermedius Zarudny, 1890 — обитает на северо-востоке Ирана и на северо-западе Туркмении. Номер ITIS: 922452.
 Parus cinereus mahrattarum E. J. O. Hartert, 1905 — обитает на северо-западе Индии и на острове Шри-Ланка. Номер ITIS: 922453.
 Parus cinereus planorum E. J. O. Hartert, 1905 — обитает на севере Индии, в Непале, Бутане, Бангладеш, на западе и в центральной части Мьянмы. Номер ITIS: 922454.
 Parus cinereus sarawacensis Slater, 1885 — обитает на острове Калимантан. Номер ITIS: 922455.
 Parus cinereus stupae Koelz, 1939 — обитает на западе, в центральной части и на северо-востоке Индии. Номер ITIS: 922456.
 Parus cinereus templorum Meyer de Schauensee, 1946 — обитает на западе и в центральной части Таиланда, на юге Индокитая. Номер ITIS: 922457.
 Parus cinereus vauriei Ripley, 1950 — обитает на северо-востоке Индии. Номер ITIS: 922458.
 Parus cinereus ziaratensis Whistler, 1929 — обитает в центральной части и на юге Афганистана и западе Пакистана. Очень тусклого и голубоватого окраса, внешне напоминает бухарскую синицу Parus  bokharensis. Номер ITIS: 922459.

Поведение

Эти птицы, как правило, наблюдаются в парах или в небольших группах, иногда объединяются с другими видами в смешанные стаи для поиска пищи. Кормятся в основном тем, что собирают и ловят насекомых (в основном, гусениц, мелких насекомых и жуков), что является непостоянным источником пищи, иногда поедают бутоны и плоды. Они удерживают насекомых лапами в то время, как их расклёвывают. Они также могут закреплять твердые семена в трещинах коры деревьев, пред тем как раздолбить клювом их твёрдую оболочку  (отмечено при наблюдениях за подвидом P. c. cashmiriensis).

Характерными звуками является свист  titiweesi...titiweesi... witsi-seesee или другие варианты, повторяется три-четыре раза, затем перерыв. Пение особенно актуально в период размножения. В ходе эксперимента, стрекочущие тревожные позывы европейской Parus major и серой синицы соответствовали друг  другу и вызывали соответствующую реакцию, но песни европейского вида не вызвали ответа у Parus cinereus mahrattarum. Размер кладки от 4 до 6 яиц (9 яиц зарегистрировано для Parus cinereus caschmirensis в одном случае, когда, по-видимому, две самки отложили кладки в одно гнездо). Сезон размножения летом, но его даты меняются в разных частях ареала. Некоторые птицы могут давать более одного выводка в год. В Южной Индии и на Шри-Ланке сезон размножения с февраля по май (в основном, до муссонов), хотя гнездование отмечали даже и с сентября по ноябрь. Гнездятся в дуплах деревьев, в полостях стен или в норах с узкими входными отверстиями в глинистых обрывах. Гнездо строят из мха, выстилая шерстью и перьями. Они могут строить свои гнезда в старых дуплах дятлов или бородастиков. Оба родителя участвуют в насиживании кладки и окрикивании потенциальных хищников, когда гнездо находится под угрозой. Они могут также устраиваться на ночлег в полостях таких, как, например, срез бамбука.

Вид блох Ceratophyllus gallinae была обнаружен в их гнездах в Индии.

PSDC's computer engineering lab gets 'Cisco-enabled' via Dimension Data
To provide students with practical exposure necessary for their careers
Dimension Data out to widen its footprint in Malaysian tertiary education sector
INFORMATION technology (IT) services provider Dimension Data said it is equipping the computer engineering lab at the Penang Skills Development Centre (PSDC) with networking gear from Cisco Systems Inc.
The initiative is aimed at providing students with the practical exposure necessary to propel them in their career, thus producing talents that are up to par with industrial standards, Dimension Data said in a statement.
"The rapid change in technology and its impact [on] the industry prompts training centres like PSDC to constantly stay abreast with the latest developments," said PSDC chief executive officer Muhamed Ali Hajah Mydin (pic).
"As PSDC operates in a tripartite model involving the Government, industry and academia, our mission is to support the manufacturing and services industries, and provide them with up-to-date training and education programmes to ensure that their workforce is trained with the required skillsets.
"We look forward to work closer with Dimension Data to further improve the quality of education, with the vision of advancing the local ICT industry at large," he added.
Dimension Data said it is widening its footprint in the local tertiary education sector, and is advocating the pivotal role of education in creating a capable workforce.
The company said it is constantly exploring the ways of improving the quality of undergraduates by working with leading industry-led training centres like PSDC through knowledge-based sharing partnerships.

MC26- Gershwin Preludes Special Edition
From Executive Director Susan Scott
Five+ months ago – when the Virus and Music Connects series were both young(er) – we presented Gershwin's jazzy Prelude One as MC4, performed by VMF Artistic Director Nuvi Mehta on violin and his San Diego Symphony colleague Bryan Verhoye on piano.
Nuvi and Bryan subsequently recorded Gershwin's second and third preludes for inclusion in the August launch of VMF's new Virtually yours series – this one a feature on Gershwin: the man, the times & the music. When Zoom-time did not permit, the idea for this special MC26 was born: all three glorious Gershwin Preludes in one MC edition!
As I wrote in my May note, Gershwin originally planned to write a cycle of twenty-five piano preludes. He completed six and published only three, which became very famous indeed and have been a staple of the American piano repertoire ever since. In 1942, the great violinist Jascha Heifetz transcribed the Preludes for violin and piano, with one commenter observing "the music shines with the violin's new sonorities."
As to the importance of the Preludes, the year is 1926, and in blending classical with jazz (or vice versa) Gershwin effectively earns the title "first crossover artist" and helps to usher in the Jazz Age. He does this with three very short pieces, each less than two minutes. Critics say they demonstrate (Gershwin's) genius for piano writing and a variety of styles," as follows:
Prelude I exudes energetic syncopation
Prelude II is a lyric blues with an ostinato-like accompaniment
Prelude III closes this set brilliantly with rugged rhythms and exciting
syncopations
YES to the syncopations, and you will like the ostinato-like accompaniments. But the BIG DON'T MISS is Prelude III and Bryan's shirt!

Sainsbury's: Better-than-expected Christmas trade
Sainsbury's, Britain's second-biggest supermarket, yesterday confirmed a better-than-expected performance in its Christmas quarter and upgraded its sales forecast for the second half.
The firm, which revealed that it had a November bid approach for Argos owner Home Retail rejected, said sales at stores open over a year fell 0.4%, excluding fuel, in the 15 weeks to January 9, its fiscal third quarter.
That was better than analysts' forecasts.
Sainsbury's has shown greater resilience to competition from discounters Aldi and Lidl than its big four rivals but has still endured eight quarters of declining underlying sales, hurt by industry deflation.
The firm, whose total sales rose 0.8%, excluding fuel over the third quarter, said it had benefited from an increase in the number of transactions its customers were making, and the volume of products bought.
"We have traded well during the festive period in a highly competitive market," said chief executive Mike Coupe.
The supermarket made no mention of its approach for Home Retail in its statement. Under British takeover rules it has until February 2 to make a firm offer for Home Retail or walk away.
Sainsbury's now expects its like-for-like sales in the second half of its 2015-16 year to be better than the first.
