Dan Akerman underwrites Everest expedition part 8
What do Dan Akerman and Ben Stiller have in common? Akerman is a special risk insurance underwriter; Stiller played one in Along Came Polly. Jennifer Aniston's Polly enticed Stiller to throw out his actuarial tables and take risks. Akerman's siren calls to him from 29,029 feet above sea level. Akerman will answer that call sometime in next month when he summits Mount Everest. This journey will exact every gram of mind, body and spirit that Akerman has fortified during his climbs of the past seven years.
byteclay.com recently spoke with Dan Akerman via Skype from Everest Base Camp.
Mark Davis: How are you doing?
Dan Akerman: We had our Puja ceremony yesterday; no Sherpa will climb without it. A Lama prays for several hours, reciting ancient scripture and asking our forefathers and ancestors for safe passage on the mountain. An altar is erected and decorated with gift offerings. Once the Puja ceremony concludes, the banners are spread out from the alter around our camp.
Now that the Puja ceremony is completed, we're going to start climbing. Right now the Sherpas have fixed ropes from Base Camp up to Camp 2. We plan on doing only two rotations on Everest. The first will be up to Camp 3, we still can't do anything yet. The plan now is to send up a team of Sherpas, composed of Sherpas from each of the expedition teams. On April 24th they will go up and attempt to fix ropes between Camp 2 and Camp 3. Up until the end of the month we will be doing shorter treks and hikes but no climbing on Everest before the end of the month.
Technically the summit takes place between the 15th and the 25th of May, that's when you have your weather window. At this stage, it doesn't matter whether the weather is good or not because there aren't fixed ropes at the summit. Even if we wanted to go now it would be extremely dangerous because there are no fixed ropes and no established camps. No one has yet brought up oxygen, I mean the whole logistical thing… You can't move everything up at once, it takes time. After they set the fixed ropes to Camp 3, the next job will be to establish camp at Camp 3. Once that's done, then we can start going up.
MD: When you say establish a camp, does that mean they would pitch the tents?
DA: Yeah, they'd pitch the tents. Actually we will be bringing a chef with us to Camp 2, so we will have a kitchen at Camp 2. They are pretty big camps. When I look at Base Camp, it probably takes 45 minutes to one hour to walk from one end of the camp to the other.
MD: Is it because it is so huge or because you're moving slower at altitude?
DA: Yes, you're moving slower at altitude but also because you're not walking a flat surface. But yes it is big. There are 25 expeditions here, there's probably 300 to 400 people here.
Next up: Dan Akerman answers Leonardo DiCaprio's Oscar speech plea for action on climate change "we need to work collectively together and stop procrastinating." Stay tuned…


The 1951 NCAA Basketball Tournament involved 16 schools playing in single-elimination play to determine the national champion of men's NCAA Division I college basketball. It began on March 20, 1951, and ended with the championship game on March 27 at Williams Arena in Minneapolis, Minnesota. A total of 18 games were played, including a third place game in each region and a national third place game.
Kentucky, coached by Adolph Rupp, won the national title with a 68–58 victory in the final game over Kansas State, coached by Jack Gardner.
The tournament was the first to introduce a 16-team field. Only the championship and third place games were held in Minneapolis, while the semifinals were held in the respective regional sites. In this sense, the 1951 tournament did not feature a true "Final Four". This would have to wait until the 1952 tournament.
The city of Minneapolis became the fifth host city, and Williams Arena the fifth host arena, of the National Championship game. It was the third college venue to do so, after Patten Gym in 1939 and Hec Edmundson Pavilion in 1949. For the ninth and twelfth straight years, Madison Square Garden and the Kansas City Municipal Auditorium hosted the East and West regionals, respectively. The two other arenas would also host the Sweet Sixteen games; while the Municipal Auditorium did so on consecutive days, Madison Square Garden shared duties for these games with a new venue, Reynolds Coliseum on the campus of North Carolina State University in Raleigh. It was the first games held in the state of North Carolina, and the second time a Southern school hosted games after Tulane University did in 1942. Reynolds would go on to host games a dozen times over a thirty year stretch.

We make you attractive.
Are Facebook Video Ads Worth It?
Joshua Joscelyn Ads, Facebook, Marketing Tips, Social Media 0
Have you heard the debate raging these days about whether or not Facebook's popularity among marketers is justified? Trust me, it's no contest.
Facebook's ad prices are still rather cheap.
There are well over a billion people on Facebook.
Nearly 800 million of them log in every day.
90% of B2C marketers rely on Facebook advertising.
The Video Factor
It's a no brainer that video should be a part of any advertising campaign. Facebook advertising is no exception. After all, videos convert better and are especially useful for lead generation. For example, Heineken recently tried it and scored a slam dunk, reaching 35 million users in just three days! They found that Facebook was the perfect home for their videos, due to the engaging atmosphere and high likeliness for conversion.
This is a trend you don't want to miss out on. Facebook video ads are overtaking YouTube statistics! In November of 2014, more videos were uploaded to Facebook than to YouTube. And with engagement climbing 25% on Facebook earlier in 2014 and a report from Adobe announcing that video was the most popular medium on social sites, it's not hard to see the trend.
Facebook video ads work if you know how to do it. Partner with a social media marketing firm or expert to make sure you're not pouring your money down the drain with ineffective techniques and strategies. This has led many to give up on the platform entirely. While in the meantime, those who know how to properly utilize this powerful tool are laughing all the way to the bank.
How to Engage Your Social Media Audience
Joshua Joscelyn Facebook, LinkedIn, Social Media 0
I'm guessing you already have a social media account or two set up, and you may even have a small following. But where are the comments, likes, and retweets? It's frustrating to have a great page set up with your logo and attractive imagery and all the stats/contact info on your company – but no one shows up for the party. Well, let me explain to you what you might be missing.
Content: Most companies make the mistake of posting way too much about themselves. Learn to think of social media as a cocktail party. How many business contacts or leads would you get at a cocktail party if you only ever talked about yourself? You're not that guy, are you? Well then don't be that guy on Twitter, either! Curate stories, news, and tips from other people to make your social pages relevant and attractive to your audience – occasionally throw in a link to your hot sale or a picture of your new location, etc.
People: This one naturally follows from the previous point. If you stop talking about yourself so much, the next step is to focus on your people. What do they like? What other related interests might they have? Talk about those things. Sere your customers, and they will reward you with engagement and business.
Conversation: Social Media is not about advertising. I cannot stress this enough. If you want advertising, go rent a billboard or some radio time. This is all about a conversation. Respond to comments and retweets. Answer questions in a timely manner. Show your audience you are there for them, and they will show up for you.
This is just a start, but these points are vital to a thriving social presence. Make sure you or your social media consultants are implementing each of these areas of focus, and watch that dead, albeit pretty, social media page you're so proud of turn into a hangout spot!

Epically Awful Social Media Plunders and Why Your Business Should Care
Vanessa Wawrzyniak Facebook, Marketing Tips, Social Media, Twitter 0
Social media is growing in importance and strength as it has helped many small and large businesses reach out to their target audience with great efficiency. However, social media marketing can do more harm than good when not executed properly.
Here are examples of social media blunders that need to be avoided.
Letting The Wrong Person Manage Your Social Media Accounts.
Social media marketing requires extensive amounts of time and effort, but handing the task to an employee can lead to certain risks. For example, a social media contractor at Chrysler commented in a tweet that people in Detroit do not know "how to (expletive) drive". This tweet of course created a huge problem for Chrysler.
Another example of a social media disaster was when American Red Cross' social media specialist posted on their Twitter account about drinking Dogfish Head beer and "getting slizzerd". The social specialist blamed the mistake on her inability to use Hootsuite and meant the ill-fated tweet for her private account.
The lesson here: if you are planning to let someone else handle your social media accounts, you have to make sure that he or she is properly trained.
Being Insensitive
Making insensitive marketing moves and comments on social media websites can draw adverse public reaction, which can jeopardize the reputation of your company. Make sure you think about whether or not someone might be offended by your social post before you hit send.
Kenneth Cole came under fire for suggesting on Twitter that news of its spring collection led to riots in Egypt, and American Apparel was blasted for offering a Hurricane Sandy sale.
If you want to win the favor and loyalty of your customers, it is best that you refrain from making comments that may suggest that you are trying to profit from other people's misery.
Lack of Understanding Social Media Mechanics
Social media mechanics are not easy to understand, and it is relatively common for people to make mistakes in this area. However, if you are using social media websites for business purposes, you should put in an extra effort to get things right.
One company that made a significant blunder in regards to social media mechanics is CVS Pharmacy. After signing up for a Twitter account, CVS asked its customers to become followers and offer feedback. However, its account was locked, so customers could not follow it or view tweets without asking for permission.
While some mistakes can be easily resolved with little consequences, others can have long-term negative effects. Therefore, it really pays to learn more about social media mechanics.

UK Institutional Assessing the sustainability of sovereign bonds
Assessing the sustainability of sovereign bonds
Why we believe our sovereign sustainability process is a key differentiator.
At Newton Investment Management Ltd, we consider our process for assessing the sustainability of sovereigns to be a key differentiator, both for the amount of time we have been incorporating it into our investment process (over a decade), and the way in which we compile our sovereign sustainability matrix, which serves as an investment overlay for our sustainable strategies.
A single, rigorous process
The same process applies for all sovereigns, both developed and emerging markets. Our expectation is that social and governance aspects will be more robust in the developed world where the social contract is stronger, and we therefore conduct our analysis using an emerging-market lens to ensure the necessary level of rigour.
Our standard emerging-market process has been in place since the launch of the Global Dynamic Bond strategy in 2006:
Emerging-market sovereign process
Source: Newton, January 2022.
Our view is that emerging markets are usually emerging from some previous maladministration or geopolitical issue and have reached a level of market sophistication. Our stated aim is not to be a 'best-in-class' investor, but to identify those countries which are more likely to be embarking on the journey towards developed status. Our expectation is that improvements beget further improvements and that virtuous cycles can be created. The opposite also holds true in that deteriorations can cause a downward spiral and vicious circles are created. Our emerging-market process is designed to provide the framework to consider these aspects.
We would acknowledge that sovereign sustainable investment has lagged analysis of corporate issuers, for various practical reasons including differing expectations of the accountability of the issuer – while a company is accountable to its shareholders, a government is at best answerable to its voter base and at worst to itself alone – as well as the more siloed nature of government departments.
Comparing our matrix to a benchmark
This accounts for the fact that, until recently, no index existed to compare our own matrix to a benchmark standard. The J.P. Morgan ESG EMBI Global Diversified Index (JESG EMBIG) has, however, emerged as a leading contender for an acceptable emerging-market sovereign ESG (environmental, social and governance) index. It is worth noting that the index is in its infancy and processes may change as several weaknesses in the methodology have become apparent. In a joint paper published in 2021 by J.P. Morgan and the World Bank, one of the main concerns cited was an ingrained income bias.1 The report stated that average ESG scores across seven leading ESG providers were highly correlated with gross national income per capita scores. This may have the unintended consequence of creating a 'low-income trap' where countries with the most pressing infrastructure requirements are excluded from accessing the sovereign debt market and therefore have scant hope of developing their own domestic financial markets. To this end, in our own proprietary matrix, we have allowed sovereigns that are poorly rated but improving on an ESG basis to be deemed investible, subject to a veto by our responsible investment team.
We consider our sovereign sustainability matrix to be an extension of our emerging-market investment process, as we have been incorporating many of the ESG inputs as a cornerstone of our analysis since 2009 when a member of the team incorporated this research into an academic paper.
Core versus sustainable strategies
The main differences between the emerging-market sovereign component of our core and sustainable strategies can be attributed to the factor of time. Specific market conditions may be favourable for a sovereign which may not necessarily fit our sustainable criteria over a given period of time. These conditions could include a competitive advantage, a commodity abundance or a superior debt coverage ratio. This may lead to an opportunity for investment in our core strategies, although inevitably there will be a trade-off versus the inherent underlying risks, which may include poorer transparency and governance, hence their exclusion from our sustainable strategies.
Flexibility in the process
In our sovereign sustainability process, we attribute a greater weight to measures such as voice and accountability, and we incorporate freedom-of-press metrics. It is clear that over the longer term, the most effective way a citizen can change their circumstances and the maladministration of government is through a democratic process. While there is a certain stability or continuity afforded to non-democratic forms of government, a transition of power is usually volatile, carries uncertainty and can be violent. Our ability to exercise a degree of judgement is reflected in some anomalies in the JESG EMBIG where, somewhat counterintuitively, certain issuers such as Belarus have a larger weighting in the ESG index than they do in the non-ESG emerging-market counterpart.
In summary, our sustainable sovereign matrix embeds a level of flexibility and judgement to take account not just of a sovereign's existing standing, but also its direction of travel. We believe that, coupled with the expertise of our responsible investment team, the rigour of our process, designed by our fixed-income emerging-market specialists, provides us with a real differentiator versus our peers and is further evidence of the robustness of our sustainable fixed-income approach.

Newton Investment Management Ltd (NIM) will make investment decisions that are not based solely on ESG considerations. Other attributes of an investment may outweigh ESG considerations when making investment decisions. The way that ESG considerations are assessed may vary depending on the asset class and strategy involved. The research team performs ESG Quality Reviews on equity securities prior to their addition to NIM's Research Recommended List (RRL). ESG Quality Reviews are not performed for all fixed income securities. The portfolio managers may purchase equity securities that are not included on the RRL and which do not have ESG Quality Reviews. Not all securities held by NIM's strategies have an ESG Quality Review completed prior to investment, although since 2020 it has been a requirement for all (single name) equity securities to have an ESG Quality Review before they are purchased for the first time. For NIM's sustainable strategies, ESG Quality Reviews are performed prior to investment for corporate investments (single name equity and fixed income securities).
Compared to more established economies, the value of investments in emerging markets may be subject to greater volatility, owing to differences in generally accepted accounting principles or from economic, political instability or less developed market practices.

That may seem like a crass analogy, but the truth of the matter is that a production company is going to be creating your image—how you present yourself or your company to the world. To be successful, this must be a team effort, where you as the client can trust your production company team members to understand your needs, be sensitive to your concerns and translate your vision to a medium you may not be familiar with.
Just as important is the production teams technical proficiency. Do they have the latest and best equipment to meet your needs? Can they easily deliver your video on schedule and most importantly on budget.
Be sure to do your due diligence by talking to other clients who have worked with the prospective video production team. Ask about their experience with communication and whether they were satisfied with their product. Doing a video project is an intense and exciting process and you want to have as smooth and productive experience as possible.

Watch highlights from France taking bronze at World Cup, beating Australia 67-59
By Kurt HelinSep 15, 2019, 10:00 AM EDT
Just as they did five years ago at the last World Cup, France has come away with the bronze medal.
The French came from 15 down at one point to beat Australia 67-59 and win the third-place game at the FIBA World Cup in China. Former Spur Nando De Colo led the way for France with 19 points, Orlando's Evan Fournier added 16 but on a rough shooting night (5-of–17), and Charlotte's Nicolas Batum added nine points and six assists. You can see the game's highlights above.
After the game, Fournier was talkative, including slamming the travel and schedule of this World Cup, spread all across China.
"But friends of mine like Tobias (Harris) … it was a great opportunity for him to just see something different and compete. I don't think they really realize how beneficial this is for their career."
— Marc Stein (@TheSteinLine) September 15, 2019
Fournier very clear about the benefits of playing FIBA & though he admitted he's "exhausted," said, like Marc Gasol a couple of days ago, it's worth it.
"Our career is only, like, 10-12 years. So you want to give everything you have for 10-12 years. It's not a problem." https://t.co/Eo54szu5pY

LeBron James, Anthony Davis combine for 49 points, Lakers beat Knicks
Associated PressJan 22, 2020, 11:40 PM EST
NEW YORK (AP) — LeBron James scored 19 of his 21 points early, cutting into Kobe Bryant's shrinking lead over him for the No. 3 scoring spot in NBA history, and the Los Angeles Lakers beat the New York Knicks 100-92 on Wednesday night.
James' quiet second half left him with 33,599 points, 44 back of Bryant.
That keeps James in good shape to catch the former Lakers star Saturday at Philadelphia, where the five-time NBA champion was born. Los Angeles has a game in between Thursday in Brooklyn.
Davis scored eight points in the final 3:45 and finished 13 of 13 from the free throw line. He played 30 minutes after going only 23 in his return from a bruised gluteus maximus on Monday in Boston, where the Lakers were routed 139-107.
Marcus Morris scored 20 points and Damyean Dotson had 17 for the Knicks, who put up a much better effort after losing by 30 two weeks ago in Los Angeles. But they just couldn't come up with timely shots to really threaten the Lakers in the fourth quarter.
James shot 8 of 10 in 17 minutes of the first half, but the Knicks held the rest of the Lakers relatively in check and the game was tied at 48 at halftime.
The Lakers led by six after three quarters, then opened the fourth with Dwight Howard's dunk, a 3-pointer by Rajon Rondo and a basket by Kyle Kuzma to extend it to 83-70.
New York hung around and was within six again late but the Lakers prevailed despite only two baskets, both by Davis, in the final four minutes.

Zion Williamson's first NBA basket a putback
AP Photo/Gerald Herbert
By Kurt HelinJan 22, 2020, 10:45 PM EST
In his first NBA action, Zion Williamson looked like what he is: A rookie trying to find his way.
At least Willaimson didn't force the issue and tried to blend in, making smart basketball plays, which led to a first-half bucket and assist in his 8:11 minutes of action.
Zion's first bucket in the NBA came in the second quarter of his debut game, a putback off a Nickeil Alexander-Walker miss.

— New Orleans Pelicans (@PelicansNBA) January 23, 2020
In his first quarter run, Zion looked to be unselfish with the ball and made the right basketball play a few times, passing out of soft doubles and picking up an assist to Brandon Ingram cutting down the lane (but Zion was 0-of-1 shooting).
Zion finds BI cutting to the rim for an easy 2! pic.twitter.com/qjjNg2a9kh
It was a good start if a bit tentative, something to be expected of a guy who missed 44 games and is now trying to come into the rotation midseason.
As he grows more comfortable, New Orleans needs Zion to attack the rim. The Pelicans have shot creators and shooters — Jrue Holiday, Lonzo Ball, Brandon Ingram, J.J. Redick — and a rim-running, attacking threat that forces defenses to collapse a little will make things easier for the Pelicans' perimeter players.
San Antonio was sharp in the first half and led by double-digits for much it. That came in part because New Orleans started 0-of-9 from three (despite some clean looks). San Antonio led 60-51 at the half. If the Pelicans are going to make a playoff push, this is the kind of game they need (at home against another team in the mix for one of the final playoff spots in the West).

NBA games still not on China's state run television
Yanshan Zhang/Getty Images
By Kurt HelinJan 22, 2020, 8:46 PM EST
In the wake of the backlash from China after Rockets GM Daryl Morey Tweeted out support for the protestors in Hong Kong — the kind of political statement the NBA takes in stride domestically but found it stirred a hornets' nest in this case — Chinese state television stopped showing NBA games.
That is still the case today, according to Nets' owner Joeseph Tsai.
Tsai — one of the co-founders of the Alibaba Group, which runs the Chinese equivalent of Amazon — is a billionaire with his feet in both the United States and China. He spoke to Bloomberg News recently about where things stand now in the NBA/China relationship (hat tip Nets Daily).
Tsai is eager to see NBA games back on [state run] CCTV. Although [streaming service] Tencent has begun showing them again, the state-owned broadcaster has yet to budge. A person familiar with the matter says the league is optimistic the network will relent, beginning with the All-Star Game on Feb. 16—there's no ready replacement, after all, for LeBron James and Giannis Antetokounmpo.
"Once you are on the air," Tsai says, "everything will come back."
The NBA, like any American group doing business in China, is caught up in geopolitical forces well beyond its control, from trade wars to protests in Hong Kong. Morey's Tweet touched on what Tsai called a "third rail of Chinese politics" but he spoke of the Hong Kong protestors as separatists when they would argue they simply want what was promised them in the agreement that transferred control of the city from Brittish to Chinese rule. (And that last sentence itself is a gross oversimplification of a complicated situation.)
NBA games likely will end up back on Chinese television soon (although it will be longer for Rockets' games), and the business of the NBA in China will continue. Both sides want to make money (and in China, keep a younger generation happy with a sport they have grown to love). However, the underlying issues that caused the last flare-up are not going away — things may be just simmering on the back burner, but the flames are not turned off.
When things do flare up again, Tsai will end up fight back in the middle of it.

Cavaliers: Ante Zizic out indefinitely with vestibular condition
Bart Young/NBAE via Getty Images
By Dan FeldmanJan 22, 2020, 7:30 PM EST
Kyrie Irving left the Celtics for the Nets after two seasons. The Cavaliers flipped Isaiah Thomas and Jae Crowder their first season in Cleveland.
The last player remaining with his team from that monumental-looking Cavs-Celtics trade, Ante Zizic might not be long for Cleveland, either.
In fact, it's unclear whether he'll play again for the Cavs.
Cavaliers release:
Center Ante Zizic, who has missed the team's last five games after being diagnosed with a vestibular condition, will be OUT indefinitely. After experiencing symptoms of nausea and dizziness, it was determined by the Cavaliers medical team that Zizic requires a period of vestibular rehabilitation to evaluate those symptoms further. His return to basketball activities will be updated as appropriate.
"Indefinitely" always sounds scary. That's especially so with an uncommon basketball medical update.
If the Cavaliers unload veterans like Tristan Thompson and Kevin Love before the trade deadline, Zizic could be in line for more playing time down the stretch. He could use a showcase entering unrestricted free agency this summer.
Hopefully, he's healthy enough to be up for it.

North Dakota Law/
North Dakota Civil Statute of Limitations
By FindLaw Staff | Reviewed by Garrett Monteagudo, Esq. | Last updated December 13, 2022
If you have been injured through the negligence of another person and plan to sue for damages, you must file your lawsuit within the time limits established by the civil statute of limitations. In fact, all civil actions and processes have a time limit, including judgments and collection on debt or rents. Different types of claims have different time limits, but they generally range from one to six years.
The "clock" begins tolling at the point the incident occurs in most cases, but there are exceptions. The "discovery rule," for instance, allows plaintiffs to file lawsuits years after the time limit has passed as long they can prove that the injury was not discovered until fairly recently. This rule is to account for people who had no way of knowing they were injured until much later, such as women being paid less than their male counterparts but not knowing this until years later.
This article provides a brief overview of North Dakota's civil statute of limitations laws.
North Dakota Civil Statute of Limitations: At a Glance
Time limits for filing civil lawsuits in North Dakota range from two to 10 years, with a six-year statute of limitations for most civil actions. Personal injury and injury to personal property lawsuits each have a six-year limit, while actions for defamation and professional malpractice have a two-year limit.
The following chart lists additional time limits for various civil actions in North Dakota. See FindLaw's Injury Law Basics section for more information.
for personal injury and 2 years for wrongful death
Injury to Person Six years (N.D.C.C. § 28-01-16)
Wrongful Death Two years (N.D.C.C. § 28-01-18)
Libel/Slander Two years (N.D.C.C. § 28-01-18)
Fraud Six years (N.D.C.C. § 28-01-16(6))
Injury to Personal Property Six years (N.D.C.C. § 28-01-16(4))
Professional Malpractice Two years; (Medical: maximum six years) (N.D.C.C. § 28-01-18)
Trespass Six years (N.D.C.C. § 28-01-16(3))
Collection of Rents Six years (N.D.C.C. § 28-01-16(1))
Contracts Written: Six years (N.D.C.C. § 28-01-16(1)) ); Oral: Six years (N.D.C.C. § 28-01-16(1))
Collection of Debt on Account Six years (N.D.C.C. § 28-01-16(1))
Judgments 10 years (N.D.C.C. § 28-01-15)

Atlit Yam
Submerged ruins of a Neolithic coastal settlement, where houses, wells, graves and skeletons have been unearthed.

Off the coast of the village of Atlit lie the submerged ruins of the Neolithic site of Atlit-Yam. The site, which dates between 6900 and 6300 BC, lies around 10 m beneath the current sea level and covers an area of 40,000 m².
The site was discovered in 1984 by marine archaeologist Ehud Galili, and since then underwater excavations have unearthed houses, graves and wells. At the center of the settlement seven megaliths are arranged in a stone semicircle around a freshwater spring, which may once have been the site of water rituals.
Scientists believe that Atlit-Yam was abandoned suddenly as a result of a tsunami hitting the region, probably caused by a volcanic eruption in the Mediterranean area. Large piles of fish discovered at the site appear to support this theory. Of particular interest to archaeologists were the discovery of two skeletons, a woman and a child, which have revealed the earliest known cases of tuberculosis.

Messi tops Ronaldo with new Champions League records
October 26, 2022 More Sections, Sport Leave a comment 100 Views
The football ace was in fine form for Paris Saint Germain on Tuesday
Lionel Messi's blistering recent form continued on Tuesday night as he fired Paris Saint Germain to a 7-2 win over Maccabi Haifa in the Champions League.
Not only helping his team qualify for the knockout phases of Europe's premier club competition, but Messi also broke records with his two-goal, two-assist display.
His two strikes, scored in the 19th and 44th minutes, meant that he became the first player to reach 80 goals in the Champions League group phases.
This has been done in 85 matches, with Ronaldo trailing behind on 73 goals and having no chance to balance the books given he is currently playing for Manchester United in the second-string Europa League.
2 & 2 – Lionel Messi is the oldest player in UEFA Champions League history to both score twice and assist twice in a game (35 years, 123 days). Multifaceted. pic.twitter.com/9ZHTTGx4IL
— OptaJoe (@OptaJoe) October 25, 2022
Furthermore, with his two goals and two assists combined, Messi, aged 35 years and 123 days, became the oldest player in Champions League history to do this in the same game.
Ronaldo achieved the feat in the same match on more than one occasion, but he most recently did it for Real Madrid on November 25, 2015, when aged 30 as he helped them beat Shakhtar Donetsk 4-3.
Elsewhere on Matchday 5, Ronaldo's old club and the holders of the title lost their first match of the season in all competitions when beaten 3-2 by RB Leipzig.
Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti wasn't disappointed with his men, however, and it was far from the biggest embarrassment of the evening which was reserved for his former club, Juventus.
In PSG's group, Benfica knocked Juve out and most probably sentenced them to the Europa League by beating the Italians 4-3 in Lisbon.
If Maccabi Haifa wins against Benfica or gets a point, and PSG beat Juventus next time out, the Serie A giants won't even seal qualification to the Europa League and will finish rock bottom.
In Group G, 2021 finalists Manchester City and Borussia Dortmund were happy with a 0-0 draw to guarantee their places in the next stage.
Over in Austria, Chelsea manager Graham Potter got the job done when the west Londoners won 2-1 away at RB Salzburg.
They clinched qualification, and will also take first place if drawing their next match as AC Milan and Salzburg do battle for the last remaining qualification spot.

Gravity is a gorgeously shot film, no doubt. It's a film by a director who knows what he's doing; there's not an ounce of fat on that movie. It's a thrilling piece of cinematic craftsmanship, and one that has rightly garnered praise from critics and audiences alike. It's difficult not to see some of the criticism as internet-age contrariness. Is the film's plot simple? Perhaps. Is it too simple? Well, that point was ably countered by that patron of upper-case criticism, Film Crit Hulk.
And yet, I came away from having seen Gravity being subtly disappointed. It's a good film, definitely, and Cuaron does a great job – but already one or two days after having seen it, when I try to think about what I saw the images that come to mind aren't Gravity's, they're from Danny Boyle's Sunshine.
Now, Sunshine… It's a flawed film that's almost sunk by its last third. It's messy and confused. Yet it resonated with me to a much larger extent than Cuaron's more accomplished, more consistent movie did. As a matter of fact, one of the reasons why I was somewhat disappointed with Gravity is this: I was immediately pulled in by the trailer, which evoked the visceral dread of floating off untethered into the infinity of space. The film itself didn't bring back this dread, because of its structure: obviously Gravity wasn't going to kill off Sandra Bullock, at least not before the final five minutes or so, which meant that there was little sense of risk. It's possible for stories to solve this conundrum by involving their audience in a sleight of hand where they know a protagonist won't die, yet they feel that they may just be wrong about that. Gravity didn't do that, at least not for me, and I'm not sure it wanted to – its aim was to show Bullock's character struggling and triumphing.
That's the other thing, though: I did care about the character triumphing, but not much. Dr. Ryan Stone, first-time astronaut, works as an audience stand-in, especially in concert with the amazing cinematography (seriously, if Emmanuel Lubezki doesn't get an Academy Award for this, the Academy should be shot into space!), but to be honest, I didn't particularly care about her. Part of this is Bullock's particularly American everywoman quality: a bit like a female Tom Hanks, there's something to calculatedly likeable about her. She works well in Gravity, but I often find her (and Hanks) bland, compared to, say, the everyman characters of Jimmy Stewart that hinted at darker qualities under the folksy niceness.
Adding to this are my issues with Gravity's themes: Film Crit Hulk (and other critics) liked the rebirth motif running through the movie, but I found it somewhat hackneyed and distractingly obvious. By the time we get Bullock's zero-G fetal position and realise that the line tethering her character to various space vessels doubles as an umbilical cord, the film is practically shouting its subtext at us in IMAX-sized captions: we're witnessing her rebirth, get it?
Sunshine is hardly all that more subtle about its themes, but it's less single-minded – it's more messy, as I mentioned earlier – and for me this makes the film resonate more. It's fair to say that Boyle's movie doesn't quite know what it wants to be, but the result is that Sunshine's themes aren't as pushy. More than that, though, I cared about its characters and their plight much more than I did about Dr. Stone's; she may be more likeable, but her likeability is largely predicated on the audience liking Sandra Bullock. Sunshine's characters are more flawed, more complicated, and to my mind more human. As a result, when those characters die it feels more like a loss, whereas Gravity's deaths were mostly forgotten a minute after they occurred.
There's something else that Sunshine pulled off and that makes the film resonate more with me than Cuaron's arguably more accomplished movie: both films have a metaphysical component, but Sunshine's goes beyond the individual level. It's not just about the potential death of one audience stand-in, it's about the possible death of mankind. It's about the two directions in which playing God can go: the film's protagonists are working on saving the sun and, by extension, mankind, while the antagonist wants to return us all to the stardust we came from. Both sides are torn between being flawed humans and aspiring to the kind of power that humans should not have. It is a shame that Boyle turns this metaphysical playground into a slasher movie, almost drowning the more interesting themes in a space-age retread of And then there were none, but the power of the filmmaking – always more disjointed than Cuaron's, but for me more engaging in this – got to me to an extent that Gravity didn't in the end.
Gravity is accomplished in ways that Sunshine doesn't manage. It is the more coherent film, it gets more things right and fewer things wrong. But the things that Sunshine gets right – and even its noble failures – means that I'd rather sit in a tin can with Cillian Murphy, Rose Byrne and Hiroyuki Sanada than with Sandra Bullock and George Clooney. I'm glad that Dr. Stone made it, but for me her triumpant rebirth doesn't even begin to touch Sunshine's final scene, which is confident enough to be simple and quiet – and all the more glorious for it.

Yes! I agree w/ you on your review of Gravity–like really, gravity, a mystery even to scientists, & the movie fails to effectively show that such a mystery exists–& then there's Sunshine, a brutal brutal title because of how it underestimates the sun's power but shows a glimpse of it on film. & that's just the beginning of it–of what makes Sunshine a superior film that handles transcendent themes like claustrophobia & hope & awe that are all shared by science & poetry & beyond——–but I think you were guarded on your opinions on Sunshine. I just wish you went all the way, because Sunshine deserves it.

Thanks for your comment! For what it's worth, I find myself wanting to rewatch Sunshine, whereas I'm absolutely okay with having seen Gravity once and that's it.

Android handsets don't come much smaller than the LG Optimus L3 II. It stands just 102mm tall so it will go hardly noticed in your pocket or bag. It's cheap too, as you can buy it from O2 on Pay As You Go for a shade under £80, but does this mobile's compact size hamper its usability?
High-end mobiles like the Xperia Z and Galaxy S4 may be growing ever larger in size, but LG is going in the other direction with the L3 II. It's one of the smallest Android mobiles we've seen in quite some time. This is mainly due to the fact that it uses a very small 3.2inch display allowing LG to squeeze it's height down to just over 10cm, but it's not much narrower than a lot of it's larger screened rivals as it measures 6cm wide.
From the front at least, the phone doesn't look much different to the original Optimus L3 that LG introduced last year. It's got the same piano black finish on the bezel around the screen and the elongated home button that sits beneath the display. However, the home button can now light up with different colours to notify you of stuff such as missed calls and new emails or text messages, which is a neat touch.
The two buttons that lie to either side only light up when you touch them, which is a tad annoying when you're using the phone in the dark, but once touched they do at least stay illuminated for a couple of seconds.
LG has also dumped the corrugated feel of the plastic back on the original L3 and instead replaced it with a brushed metal effect on this update, although it's still made from plastic rather than metal. It looks better than the old finish, but it feels quite slippery to the touch and highlights the overall plastiky feel of the phone.
While the L3 II is likely to win some fans due to its small size, its tiny 3.2inch screen is also likely to put a lot of people off, especially as it has an extremely low resolution of 240×320 pixels.
The low resolution means text looks a bit hazy and indistinct and web browsing is compromised because you often can't read headlines on new websites when you're in the standard zoomed out, full page view that most sites default to when you first land on them. You also have to do a lot of scrolling and zooming on websites just to be able to read columns of text – something that starts to try your patience after a while.
The screen's viewing angels aren't great either as the display darkens a fair bit when you twist the phone left or right in your hand or tilt it up and down. On the plus side it is reasonably bright and doesn't wash out when you're using it outdoors. However, like the Optimus L5 II it doesn't have a light sensor, so it can't automatically adjust screen brightness. Instead you have to manually adjust it using a slider found in the notifications tab.
