"Sacrifices" is a song by American rapper Big Sean from his fourth studio album I Decided (2017). It features American hip hop group Migos and was produced by Metro Boomin, with co-production from Allen Ritter.

Lyrics
Lyrically, the song finds Big Sean, Offset and Quavo addressing the sacrifices they have made to become the successful artists they are.

Critical reception
The song was met with generally positive reviews from music critics. Brittany Spanos of Rolling Stone commented that Big Sean is "no match for the affable charm of Migos" in the song. Andy Belt of Consequence praised the Metro Boomin's production of the song, writing that it grounds "some of the rapper's sillier lines". Eric Renner Brown of Entertainment Weekly also wrote favorably of the song's production, stating that it "proves classical harpsichords and Southern trap aren't mutually exclusive." A. Harmony of Exclaim! was more critical of the song, describing it as "fun, but ultimately shallow compared to the album's weighty storyline." Matthew Strauss of Pitchfork considered "Sacrifices" the best song from I Decided.

Music video
The official music video was released on May 19, 2017. Directed by Kid Studio, it sees Big Sean speeding on a motorcycle through the streets of a city at night, driving through tunnels and on bridges. As he rides, the taillights of his bike emits a trailing stream of lights. Between shots of him speeding in the streets, Sean is also seen posing with Migos in an abandoned warehouse. At the end of the video, Sean crashes into another vehicle, sending him flying into the air.

Man Spots UFO in Florida
Chris Capps April 4, 2010
One man in a rural community in Florida has reported a case of a mysterious flying object that appeared near him and his wife as he drove the two of them home from work late one night last week just north of Fort McCov. The object has clearly left an impression on the driver of the vehicle, and no doubt will remain in his memory for quite some time as something that is in every way unexplainable.
The night began normally as any other friday night would with both parties, who will remain nameless, going to work and finally getting off their shifts to go home. As they entered the truck of the primary witness, they got into the truck and began their long journey home with nothing but the sound of tires on the road and the whistling of the wind rushing past them as the truck had no radio in it. As usual, the witness' wife fell asleep quickly in the passenger seat after a long day. But the night would have one more event in store that would change the lives of the witnesses forever.
As the road gradually curved to the right just after Fort McCov, an object passed the truck from the right coming into view just in front of the tree line to the vehicle's right. Before it disappeared into the treetops, the vehicle seemed to "track" or follow the truck for a few seconds before veering off. The driver, intent on seeing the object again, accelerated the truck to follow the object, which was traveling dexterously at 90 miles per hour. This was about one and a half times the speed of the truck which was following the local speed limit at 60. As he tried to catch up to the vehicle, he ran through what the object had looked like in his head. It was approximately 130 feet long, or nine times the length of the truck they were driving. Its width was approximately 25 feet wide, and the driver used the size and distance of the trees as a comparison. The lights, which were all around the craft, were yellow, white, and green around the center of the vehicle. It resembled, according to the driver of the truck, a stubby cigar with lights surrounding the center mounted on strange bumpy structures that resembled a 1940's era automobile's headlight mounts.
At first, scrambling for a logical explanation, the driver of the pickup truck reassured himself that what he had seen could have been a blimp. Soon, however, he realized that though the vehicle did seem to share some physical attributes such as shape and size with some styles of blimp, that it would have been impossible for a blimp to perform such incredible flying maneuvers. The vehicle had made sharp 90 degree turns on a dime, and blimps could only make gradual turns that would take several seconds, or sometimes more. In addition, there were no games or events nearby that would have required the presence of any blimp, let alone a top secret incredibly maneuverable one. Ultimately, the driver concluded that he could not identify the flying object that had passed by him and submitted the report to MUFON. Unfortunately, his wife was asleep throughout the whole ordeal and did not see anything.

Tilly Ramsay unable to taste her dad's Christmas Dinner
When your dad's a renowned chef but you catch Covid-19 days before Christmas Dinner
FIND OUT WHAT'S ON NEAR YOU WITH OUR NEWSLETTER
When you're the daughter of a renowned chef, restaurateur and TV culinary legend, one of the perks would surely be having your dad cook the Christmas Dinner.
But alas, for Strictly Come Dancing star Tilly Ramsay, back home from uni and her time on the BBC dance show, the joys of the festive roast cooked by chef father Gordon Ramsay were lost this year.
For the 20-year-old presenter and social media star has caught Covid-19 - and has lost her sense of taste and smell.
READ MORE: The Bristol man rowing across the Atlantic on Christmas Day
So that meant no matter how beautifully flavoured the roast potatoes were, how succulent the turkey, how nutty the stuffing was, young Tilly could taste not a morsel or smell the delicious aroma.
She broke the news in a TikTok video to her nearly ten million followers, which saw her standing next to her dad Gordon on Christmas Day - and he was doing the cooking.
She wrote on the screen: "When you have Gordon Ramsay to make Christmas dinner," adding in a cruel twist of fate: "But you have Covid and still can't taste or smell."
The clip was posted to the social media site with the caption "I'm sure it won't be that good anyway."
Tilly's video has since gone viral, and was watched more than 32 million times with more than three million likes, 12,000 comments and nearly 24,000 shares.
While many shared their own experiences of missing out on their own family's Christmas dinner, others jabbed at the celebrity chef's rather bizarre dancing in the video, which showed him bobbing along to music.

BUS DOOM........
Nineteen dead including two children and 21 injured as a bus skids off a Siberian bridge and plunges 22ft onto a frozen river
Nineteen people including two small children were killed when a bus veered over the side of a bridge and overturned onto a frozen river in Russia today. A total of 43 passengers and the driver were on the bus when it careered 22ft into the Kuenga River in Transbaikal region of Siberia, 3,930 miles east of Moscow. A further 21 people were injured in the incident and had to be cut out of the vehicle as it came to rest upside down on the thick ice. Horrific pictures and video show the scene of the crash as frantic rescue efforts continued after dark on Sunday. Footage of the scene from the following morning shows blood-stained snow as the bus lies torn apart underneath the bridge. 'The bus was en route from Sretensk to Chita. It veered off the road and overturned some 60 km (37 miles) from Sretensk,' said an emergencies ministry spokesman. The river was shallow and its entire depth was frozen so it did not sink beneath the ice. One theory is that the Kia Grandbird bus suffered a burst tyre, another that it skidded on the bridge. Source

Two business exec brothers and their father among nine killed when their plane crashed in South Dakota during a snow storm on the way home from a family hunting trip
Two business executives and their father have been identified among the nine people killed when a plane crashed in South Dakota. Kirk and Jim Hansen Jr, their father Jim Hansen Sr and six other family members all died when their plane went down in a field near Chamberlain, South Dakota, on the way back from a hunting trip. The Hansens were executives with Conrad & Bischoff, Kyäni and KJ's Super Stores in Idaho, East Idaho News reported. Twelve people were on the Pilatus PC-12 when it took off shortly before 12:30 p.m. CST on Saturday from the Chamberlain Municipal Airport on its way to Idaho Falls. Three survivors managed to escape the wreckage and were taken to nearby hospitals.The FAA said investigators were en route to the crash site and that the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) would be in charge of the investigation. South Dakota is located in the Northern Plains, a region facing blizzard conditions as a storm blows eastward across the United States. A winter storm warning remains in effect in Brule County until midday Sunday, the National Weather Service said, potentially including blowing snow that 'could significantly reduce visibility.'

"You're Gonna Die Up There" ANA Boeing 767 Made An Emergency Landing After Flames Shoot Out From Right Engine
An All Nippon Airways plane from western Japan bound for Tokyo's Haneda Airport had to turn back to Fukuoka Airport for an emergency landing. Fukuoka Airport officials say crew on board the Boeing 767 reported engine trouble shortly after 9:50 a.m. Thursday Japan time. The aircraft made an emergency landing at 10:15 a.m. It then moved over the runway on its own power and stopped on the taxiway. Fire engines stood by and the runway was closed for about half an hour. Transport ministry officials say no injuries have been reported among the 270 passengers and eight crew members on board. All Nippon Airways says the aircraft's cockpit indicators showed a temperature surge in the right engine, as the plane was ascending after takeoff. The pilots shut down the engine and headed back to Fukuoka.

At last, the cell phones we were strongly sitting tight for have at last been revealed. Recently, Apple declared the iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max and, not really spending plan iPhone XR. Aside from the various most recent highlights, something that is never observed on the iPhones is the help for double SIM. While all the customary iPhone clients may have become cheerful to hear that, there's a touch of catch in how the double SIM usefulness in the Apple's gadgets work.
To begin with the equipment, on opening the SIM plate you'll find that the Cupertino goliath have given arrangement for SIM cards on a solitary plate. This is not at all like other Android cell phones which have isolate opening for each SIM. In the most recent double SIM iPhones, both the cards settle together with one being to finish everything and the other at the base.
Proceeding onward to the system part, the sort of bearer you are utilizing chooses on the off chance that you can utilize two SIMs at the same time in your iPhone. Remarkably, among the two SIM cards you'll be coordinating, one of them needs to help the eSIM standard. At exactly that point would you be able to utilize two bearers together. Not all organizations furnish cards with the help for eSIM standard and in India, Airtel and Reliance Jio are the main two suppliers.
Shockingly, regardless of whether both the SIM cards you are utilizing bolster eSIM, the cell phone permits the use of just a single at any given moment. Not at all like the Android cell phones, approaching both the cards won't work in the meantime. On the off chance that you are on a call through any one, alternate initiates the voice message. Likewise, the information association of one card gets deactivated in the event that you are on voice call through the other one.
In any case you are as of now an Android or an iPhone client, the majority of this double SIM component of the 2018 iPhones may sound somewhat dubious. Nonetheless, the component will work correspondingly like Android cell phones in chosen places including China, Hong Kong and Macau.

Rice calcium-dependent protein kinase OsCPK17 targets plasma membrane intrinsic protein and sucrose-phosphate synthase and is required for a proper cold stress response.

Calcium-dependent protein kinases (CDPKs) are involved in plant tolerance mechanisms to abiotic stresses. Although CDPKs are recognized as key messengers in signal transduction, the specific role of most members of this family remains unknown. Here, we test the hypothesis that OsCPK17 plays a role in rice cold stress response by analysing OsCPK17 knockout, silencing and overexpressing rice lines under low temperature. Altered OsCPK17 gene expression compromises cold tolerance performance, without affecting the expression of key cold stress-inducible genes. A comparative phosphoproteomic approach led to the identification of six potential in vivo OsCPK17 targets, which are associated with sugar and nitrogen metabolism, and with osmotic regulation. To test direct interaction, in vitro kinase assays were performed, showing that the sucrose-phosphate synthase OsSPS4 and the aquaporin OsPIP2;1/OsPIP2;6 are phosphorylated by OsCPK17 in a calcium-dependent manner. Altogether, our data indicates that OsCPK17 is required for a proper cold stress response in rice, likely affecting the activity of membrane channels and sugar metabolism.

Democratic Republic of the Congo–India relations are the international relations that exist between the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and India.

History
India opened its embassy in Kinshasa in 1962, one of the first countries to establish a diplomatic mission in the country.

DRC President Joseph Kabila Kabange visited India to attend the First India-Africa Forum Summit on 8-9 April 2008.  He also held a bilateral meeting with bilateral talks with Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.

Economic relations
Bilateral trade between the DRC and India totaled US$ 415.39 million in 2015-16. The major commodities imported by India from the DRC are mineral fuel, mineral oils, copper, natural or cultured  pearls, precious or semi-precious stones, oil seeds and olea, and miscellaneous grains. The major commodities India exports to the DRC are pharmaceutical  products, vehicles, electrical machinery and equipment, nuclear reactors and boilers, and iron and steel products.

The Indian government has offered to help Congo develop its mining industry.

Indian peacekeepers
India's Gurkha troops served under the ONUC UN peacekeeping  mission in the DRC during 1960-62, aimed at quelling a rebellion in the Katanga province. As of December 2016, around 4,500 Indian troops, military observers and police personnel are deployed in the country as part of MONUSCO.

Indian foreign aid
Citizens of the DRC are eligible for scholarships under the Indian Technical and Economic Cooperation Programme and the Indian Council for Cultural Relations.

Indians in the DRC
The DRC has the largest Indian community of any Central African nation. As of December 2016, there are an estimated 9,000 Indian citizens and persons of Indian (PIO) origin residing in the DRC. Most of the PIOs in the DRC hold British, Canadian, Kenyan and Tanzanian citizenship. The Indian community is primarily employed in services sector, as well as business, trading and manufacturing.

Indian emigrants to the DRC primarily come from the state of Gujarat, with Kerala, and other South Indian states also making up a significant population. A small number of Indians in the DRC are from North India. The single largest Indian community in the DRC is the Ismaili community, estimated to number about 2,000 people. The Congo Hindu Mandal, an Indian community organization, built a Hindu temple in Kinshasa.

In many societies the greatest problem with addiction is not the various illicit drugs that people somehow get and use but the consumption of alcohol which is more easily available. Because of alcohol abuse great damage is not only done to society and economy but also to unborn life (foetal alcohol syndrome). Many children suffer from severe consequences because of their parents' life style. Their physical growth and their mental development are significantly hindered. The easiest and most logical approach to the problem of alcohol is complete abstinence. What would be our arguments in favour of such a life style?
The term "wine" as used in Scripture does not always refer to fermented wine but can also mean grape juice.
Research has shown that alcohol is harmful, even in small doses. Here are some of the potential physical damages that may happen: destruction of liver cells (e.g., fatty liver or cirrhosis), destruction of cells of the heart muscle (cardiac insufficiency and heart failure), destruction of brain cells, inflammation of the nerves (neuritis), etc. However, harmful effects are not limited to physical problems. There may also be mental-emotional damages such as a decline of memory, decline of productivity and performance, depressions, fear and disappointment with oneself, etc.
Alcohol is linked to family violence, accidents, and other problematic behavior.
Dr. W. Feuerlein of the German Society of the Investigation and Therapy of addiction has emphasized that even in small quantities alcohol is absolute dangerous for certain groups of persons such as persons suffering from an illness of the liver or pancreas, diabetics, those with epileptic seizures, and all those who are in danger of becoming alcohol dependants.
Dr. F. Portheine of the Academy of Occupational Medicine in Berlin has pointed out that alcohol is a neurotoxic substance which is harmful in smallest quantities. It reduces protective fear and stimulates daredevilry and primitive passions. The sense of responsibility suffers immensely.
No moderate drinker has a guarantee that he or she will not become addicted. If persons are used to drinking moderately, under severe circumstances they may drink more and the pathway to addiction is established.
• Because everything belongs to God, our body is also God's property. God does not want this property to be destroyed but to be preserved and cared for like a sanctuary – 1 Cor 6:19-20; 10:31. Alcohol destroys God's temple, our body.
• Our financial means are also God's and should be used to his glory. To use our finances to destroy his body through the use of alcohol proves himself or herself to be an irresponsible steward of what God has entrusted to him or her – Hag 2:8.
• Christians are called to be examples for others and help them to get oriented. Christians want to help not to imperil others.
• Those who drink moderately are a danger, because they mislead others. The influence of an alcoholic is less stimulating than the influence of a moderate drinker.
• Those who drink moderately are a danger for dry alcoholics who are also tempted to drink again. The smallest dose of alcohol may cause them to backslide into alcoholism.
• We are responsible for each other and should not just live as it pleases us – 1 Cor 8:13; Rom 14: 19-21; 15: 1-3.
• In order to be of real help we need to be completely abstinent.
Someone was noted that alcoholism is a thirst for God on a low level. Whether this is true or not, we have found Jesus and salvation in him. We do not need alcohol or other drugs to quench our spiritual thirst.
The same biblical principles that apply to the use of alcohol are also applicable to the use of tobacco and illicit drugs.


3 ace tracks containing in Nathan's own words: "Stereo live recordings in front of an audience and in private. Featuring Mark Dwinell (Forma) and Nathan Cearley (Long Distance Poison) on modular synthesizers. Utilizing repetition to unnerve and destabilize rather than coddle and sooth. Rejecting the notion that an urban beat driven music is necessarily escapist and an expression of consumption and lifestyle. Creating a music of no escape.
Mark Dwinell is a multi-instrumentalist and founding member of the Brooklyn electronic band Forma. He has releases on Spectrum Spools and Kranky and solo releases on Ba Da Bing! and Amish Records.

Everu Tuesday The Star newspaper will have a column in the StarTwo section where Amy Beh will have recipes following a certain theme(maybe quiche week or chilly week or something) or answering people's queries for recipes with related recipes.
The latest Tuesday(which is a couple of days ago duh) she had recipes on various sambals or chilli paste, matching certain types of food recommendation.
Since Mom decided to fry bee hoon with crab today, I wanted to make this dried shrimp sambal sauce as accompaniment to the bee hoon. The recipe can be viewed here.
I followed the recipe, but left out the 6 red chillies because I didn't have them on hand. I find out that this is crucial to give the sauce the vibrant red colour as in the picture. Oh well, the bird's eye chillies(or cili padi) gave the sauce the taste anyway, and that's what I'm looking for.
I don't have an inkling what calamansi limes are, so I just plucked some limes from the lime trees in my porch area and squeeze the juice out, omitting the seeds.
Amazingly the belacan cubes actually get whizzed in the food processor, I was thinking its impossible since they became hard like nails after roasting.
The tomato took a while to get blended. At that time I couldn't wait to dig in to the bee hoon already. But being a chilli fan I had to finish what I started just to enjoy eating bee hoon with great chilli sauce!

Before I start with my usual round-up of the weekend's off-the-wall but crime-related news, a heads-up that I'll be in trial this week. I may post some about it later (for now I'll just insert a tease with this link) but I will be busy, though not too busy to post something every day this week.
We've all heard about the balloon boy, and the surrounding amateur (and maybe a few professional) shrinks deciding why the parents would do such a thing. Well, they aren't the first to want to live a different life. And some even get away with it, at least for a while. Here are some folks who fooled those around them to do what they wanted to do, and be whom they wanted to be.
And in more recent news, someone who didn't get away with it. Disabled? Absolutely... apart from the whole golf champion thing.
And if you can't be one, why not steal one? I'm talking about stealing a policeman, of course. The amazing thing is, I used to be a newspaper reporter in this town. And am not in the least surprised by this story.
While we're on the police officer thing, ours wear distinctive uniforms. And should never be confused with a waitress from Sonic, especially if you are driving while under the influence.
Here's a tough one: our law enforcement friends in LA were looking for a vandal who had been placing orange and black "Who Is John Scott?" stickers on buses. Well, they solved the case, and guess who dunnit?
And because the Smoking Gun deserves your traffic (and because it's relevant to my work here, and because you should start your Monday with a smile), enjoy these perp 'taches.
Oh, in case you want to start the day on a non-criminal note, but still wish to revel in the embarrassing mistakes of others, here are the 10 worst predictions of the last decade, according to Newsweek. I mean, wasn't it obvious the iPod would flop?!


According to state law, when the yellow lights on the bus are flashing, drivers need to start slowing down because the bus driver is preparing to stop. After the bus stops, the red lights flash, which tells drivers on both sides of the street to come to a complete stop. The only time opposing traffic does not need to stop is when there is a wide median separating each side of traffic. The transportation department works closely with school district police officers to warn violators about bus safety laws.
Transportation is a privilege, not a right.
Dress for the weather and time of day: If it is rainy or dark, and visibility is poor, wear a raincoat or bright colored clothing with reflective material. Start extra early, walk carefully and stay alert.
At the bus stop, stay away from the edge of the road, so you will be out of harm's way.
When entering the bus, let it come to a full stop and wait for the driver to open the door before you move toward the bus.


The Conference Board Annual Salary Increase Budgets Survey, released one week before Labor Day, reports the lowest yearly forecast for company salary budgets since the survey began 25 years ago. The 2010 median forecast salary increase budget is 3.00 percent in all employee categories, down a half percent from the previous year.
Along with The Conference Board's labor market indicators, "this historic low suggests that, entering this holiday weekend, workers shouldn't be looking forward to much improvement in the labor market," says Linda Barrington, Managing Director of Human Capital at The Conference Board.
Changing market conditions throughout 2009 pushed companies to adjust downward their salary increases as the economy worsened. Comparing what companies originally forecast for their 2009 salary increase budgets and where they report actually expecting to finish the year is revealing. The Conference Board survey reports a full percentage point drop in the medians of the 2009 salary increase budgets in all employee categories except executive, from 3.50 percent to 2.50 percent. But it was the executive category that took the biggest hit – down 2 full percentage points (from 3.50 percent to 1.50 percent).
Across industry categories, Insurance reports the highest 2010 forecasts for salary increase budgets in all employee categories, 3.50 percent, while Communications reports the lowest in all employee categories—2.50 percent. A median forecast of 2.50 percent is also reported for the salary increase budgets for executives in the Energy/Agriculture industry.
While the median forecast salary increase budget is low, the typical employer is still budgeting for salary increases ahead of inflation in 2010. Suppressed, in part, by slack in production capacity, The Conference Board projects the inflation rate to be 2 percent this coming year.
The information for this report was gathered from 291 companies surveyed between April 7 and April 30, 2009.
Salary increase budgets refer specifically to the pool of money that an organization dedicates to salary increases for the coming year. It is represented as a percentage of current payroll generally; the salary increase budget is calculated using a predetermined total percentage of base pay (excluding overtime, bonuses, etc.). The budget is used for awarding merit or performance increases to individual employees, as well as for pay adjustments such as promotional increases. Salary increase budgets can also include scheduled "step" increases or salary increases that have been pre-determined via individual contracts or collective bargaining agreements.

iPhone Screen Protector No Smudge
iPhone Screen Protector No Smudge - New Silicone Case UK Online
iphone screen protector no smudge might be the same size as the iPhone, but that doesn't mean you don't want a spiffy new case for it.
"That means there were 14 [inventors] total, and 13 Apple people who didn't come testify," Nelson said. Meanwhile, Price said Apple's attorneys presented misleading information about Samsung documents, such as the comments from JK Shin, head of Samsung's mobile business. Apple quoted a segment that said Samsung wanted to copy the iPhone. However, Price said Shin was relaying what carriers were saying, not what Samsung believed. "Nowhere in that document does he says, 'let's copy the iPhone,'" Price said. "And they don't copy the iPhone. What he's saying is we're behind, and we need to find an OS platform."Most Samsung features that Apple says infringe are items that are a part of Android, Google's mobile operating system that powers Samsung's devices. All patents except one, called "slide to unlock," are built into Android. Apple has argued the patent infringement trial has nothing to do with Android. However, Samsung argues that Apple's suit is an and that Google had invented certain features before Apple patented them. It came out during the trial that Google has been helping Samsung fund its defense against a couple of Apple's patent claims because of a "Mobile Application Distribution Agreement" for Samsung to use Google's apps.
Suing Google wouldn't get Apple far since Google doesn't make its own phones or tablets, Instead, Apple has sued companies that sell physical devices using Android, a rival to Apple's iOS mobile operating system, In particular, Apple believes Samsung has followed a strategy to copy its products and then undercut Apple's pricing, While Apple isn't suing Google, it expects that Google will make changes to its software if Samsung is found to infringe on patents through Samsung's Android devices, Meanwhile, an appeals court ruling April 25 in Apple's related patent-infringement suit against Motorola threw a wrench in the Apple v, Samsung case, extending the duration of the trial by one day to give the parties one additional hour each -- on top of the 25 apiece they already had -- to present more evidence, The US Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit on Friday upheld a ruling by Judge A, Posner of the Northern District of Illinois that determined a specific interpretation of Apple's '647 "quick links" patent, Koh had allowed the patent, particularly the use of an analyzer server, to be interpreted in a way in the current trial that differed from Posner's accepted iphone screen protector no smudge meaning, so she allowed Samsung and Apple to address the patent Monday..
Apple recalled Todd Mowry, a professor computer science at Carnegie Mellon University, to argue that even with a different interpretation of analyzer server, Samsung infringed Apple's patents. Samsung attorneys tried to show inconsistencies in Mowry's testimony, and they recalled their own witness, Kevin Jeffay, professor of computer science at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, to testify about the technology. Jeffay, in his first moments of testimony, said he'd held a certain view of analyzer server the entire course of the case, but the court wouldn't allow him to talk about it. Koh and Apple's attorneys took issue with the statement, with Koh determining that Jeffay never adopted the definition from Posner. She struck his testimony after the lawyers argued over the issue for nearly half an hour.
In the current case, Apple and Samsung have accused each other of copying features used in their popular smartphones and tablets, and the jury will have to decide who actually infringed and how much money is due, This trial involves different patents and newer devices than the ones disputed at trial in August 2012 and in a damages retrial in November 2013, For instance, the new trial involves the iPhone 5 , released in September 2012, and Samsung's Galaxy S3 , which also debuted in 2012, There are seven patents at issue in the latest case -- five held by Apple and two by Samsung, Apple has accused Samsung of infringing US patents Nos, 5,946,647; 6,847,959; 7,761,414; 8,046,721; and 8,074,172, All relate to software features, such as "quick links" for '647, universal search for '959, background syncing for '414, slide-to-unlock for '721, and automatic word correction for '172, Overall, Apple argues that the patents enable ease of use and make iphone screen protector no smudge a user interface more engaging..
Samsung, meanwhile, has accused Apple of infringing US patents Nos. 6,226,449 and 5,579,239. The '449 patent, which Samsung purchased from Hitachi, involves camera and folder organization functionality. The '239 patent, which Samsung also acquired, covers video transmission functionality and could have implications for Apple's use of FaceTime. The Samsung gadgets that Apple says infringe are the Admire, Galaxy Nexus , Galaxy Note , Galaxy Note 2, Galaxy S II, Galaxy SII Epic 4G Touch, Galaxy SII Skyrocket, Galaxy S3, Galaxy Tab 2 10.1, and the Stratosphere. Samsung, meanwhile, says the iPhone 4 , iPhone 4S , iPhone 5, iPod Touch (fifth generation) and iPod Touch (fourth generation) all infringe. It initially accused the iPad 2 , iPad 3, iPad 4, and iPad Mini of infringing its '239 patent, but it later dropped those claims.That also reduced the amount Samsung wanted in damages to $6.2 million from its originally requested $6.8 million.
The latest trial kicked off March 31 with jury selection, The following day featured opening arguments iphone screen protector no smudge and testimony by Phil Schiller, Apple's head of marketing, Other witnesses who have testified include Greg Christie, an Apple engineer who invented the slide-to-unlock iPhone feature; Thomas Deniau, a France-based Apple engineer who helped develop the company's quick link technology; and Justin Denison, chief strategy officer of Samsung Telecommunications America, Denison's testimony came via a deposition video..
Apple experts who took the stand over the course of the trial included Andrew Cockburn, a professor of computer science and software engineering at the University of Canterbury, New Zealand; and Alex Snoeren, a professor of computer science and engineering at the University of California at San Diego. The crux of Apple's case came with two expert witnesses, John Hauser, the Kirin professor of marketing at the MIT Sloan School of Management; and Christopher Vellturo, an economist and principal at consultancy Quantitative Economic Solutions. Hauser conducted a conjoint study that determined Apple's patented features made Samsung's devices more appealing, while Vellturo determined the amount of damages Apple should be due for Samsung's infringement -- $2.191 billion.
Samsung, which launched its defense April 11 after Apple rested its case, called several Google engineers to the stand to testify about the early days of Android and technology they created before Apple received its patents, Hiroshi Lockheimer, Google vice president of engineering for Android, said his company never copied iPhone features for Android, Other Google Android engineers, Bjorn Bringert and Dianne Hackborn, also testified about features of the operating system, High-ranking Samsung executives, including former Samsung Telecommunications America CEO Dale Sohn and STA Chief Marketing Officer Todd Pendleton, also took the stand during the month-long trial, The two executives testified about Samsung's marketing push for the Galaxy S2 and iphone screen protector no smudge other devices, saying a shift in the Korean company's sales and marketing efforts -- not copying Apple -- boosted its position in the smartphone market..

Very Fancy Chanel Now Owns a Very Fancy Tannery
Kelly Faircloth
Chanel has purchased a tannery. Specifically, the luxury fashion brand has shelled out an undisclosed amount of money for Bodin-Joyeux, which has been around since 1860 and provides much of the lamb hide that goes into those oh-so-expensive quilted bags.
No, the company was not been inspired by the hipster fad for killing what you eat. It's actually part of a broader move in the fashion business toward locking down necessary supplies. Reuters reports:
The trend toward vertical integration – control from the raw material to the shop shelf – gives luxury brands a competitive advantage, raises barriers to entry and helps them defend the high-quality image they want associated with their products.
The company's also bought Chanel No.5 suppliers and the couture embroiderer Maison Lesage. Hermes and LVMH have also been on a buying spree that includes both tanneries and, apparently, crocodile farms.
"Bodin-Joyeux are lambskin specialists and we wanted to protect and preserve their know-how," Bruno Pavlovsky, the chairman of the company's fashion business, told Reuters. Not to mention that, as demand grows and meat consumption drops, lamb leather and calf hides are increasingly pricey—up something like 25 to 30 percent over the last three to five years.
It's worth noting that Louis Vuitton is apparently struggling with production of its new, sleeker and more expensive (try $4,000 vs. $2,000 for the old monogrammed stuff), because there's just not enough high-quality leather to go around. Supposedly Bodin-Joyeux will continue supplying other luxury brands, but you've got to figure the corporate parent reserves the right to a bit of line-cutting.
Louis Vuitton Thinks Their Bags Aren't Expensive Enough
Even the brilliant minds behind Louis Vuitton are sick of their logo: their new purses much more…

Ari Schwartz: Dark Lord of the Snark
This kind of vertical integration is not really "new," and companies have been trying this for ages: the keiretsu and chaebol come to mind.
The farther you get from your core competencies and competitive advantage, the less focused you are. Sure, it's nice to have a resource locked down, but you also have to manage new internal resources that are outside of what you're good at. Chanel is not a tannery, and now it has to manage the operations of one. It could be good in the sense that you raise barriers to entry for a competitor, but it could also be a resource cost that reduces per dollar efficiency.
I'm a fan of the lean model, so I'm "eh" about this. I know, I know, armchair quarterbacking, but just my $.02.

In the village of Crythin Gifford, the wind howls across the moors and fog creeps mysteriously around the town spires. At the edge of the village's cemetery, young lawyer Arthur Kipps glimpses the figure of a woman, garbed all in black, and is drawn into Crythin's cursed and haunted history. Susan Hill's gothic ghost story, The Woman in Black, comes to spine-tingling life in this cunning stage adaptation that left London's West End theatregoers enthralled.

Collective Museum reimagines the entire 2000 acre University of California, Santa Cruz campus as a museum. Rather than collecting objects, we collected fifty sites and their corresponding stories. Each site was selected and narrated by a professor, student, graduate, or staff member and marked by a public sign. The sites are dispersed throughout the campus and can be discovered incidentally or by using a GPS-based map from the project's mobile site. The project is comprised of many of the traditional platforms that you find in almost any museum, including a series of exhibition walls dispersed across campus, museum collection catalog, and mobile website.

"Still popular after 2 years"… Mamamoo's 'Hip' music video surpasses 300 million views on YouTube
RBW, the management company, announced on the 13th that Mamamoo's hip regular music video surpassed 300 million YouTube views around 2pm the previous day.
This song was released in November 2019 as the title track of Mamamoo's 2nd full-length album, and it has surpassed 300 million views in two years.
RBW explained, "This is the best performance among Mamamoo's music videos.
'Hip' is a song that combines rhythmic brass and string sounds, and features an addictive melody. It contains a positive message that you can truly 'be hip' (you can become cool) when you fully care for and love yourself without being conscious of the gaze of others.
On the other hand, Mamamoo is a 4-member South Korean girl group under RBW that debuted on June 19, 2014. Although they are a girl group, they have been loved by the public since their debut for their outstanding singing, dancing and stage performances.

Millions of Australian sheep have been spared live export since 2002.
Millions of Australian sheep have been spared live export since 2002
Feeling inspired? You can help spread kindness and compassion for all living beings.
Donate now to support campaigns for kindness.
Explore the benefits of plant-based eating– one of the most profound things we can do to help animals is to change the way we eat.
Help us lobby decision-makers to spark important change.
Over nearly two decades, together we've helped protect millions of animals from the horrors of live export.
Progress for Australian animals
In 2002, just before supporters like you enabled us to start in-depth investigative and campaigning work on live export, Australia exported more than 6 million sheep. A shocking figure, and a horrible one. But last year, that number was reduced to 760,918. An 87% drop. Collectively, that means millions and millions of animals have been spared from live export over nearly two decades.
Without our supporters taking action and funding our investigations and initiatives, live export companies could still be sending 6 million sheep — and potentially many more — to endure stressful shipboard journeys and terrifying deaths every single year.
Of course, 760,918 is still too many. One is too many. So: the effort continues. With your ongoing support, we'll continue doing everything we can to protect animals from this terrible trade.
The terrible suffering of sheep onboard the Awassi Express prompted a global outcry with caring people the world over calling for an end to live export.
Protecting animals globally
Our Animals International team in Europe has been relentlessly working every angle to shield animals from live export, wherever they are from. Here are just some of the significant achievements our supporters have helped us achieve recently:
You helped stop live export starting up from Namibia.
You helped us launch major TV exposés in the UK, France, Spain, Romania and Austria.
You helped us convince most of Germany's states to ban live export.
You've helped bring the UK to the brink of ending live export.
You helped us secure an EU Parliamentary Inquiry into live export, and get a seat at the table.
Thanks to Animals Australia supporters, from Australia to New Zealand to Brazil to South Africa and to dozens of countries throughout Europe — there is now a powerful, international collaboration of groups and individuals working together to save animals from this ruthless business. Twenty years ago, collaboration and cooperation of this scale didn't exist. And together we've helped build it.
The Animals International team in Europe, led by EU Director Gabriel Paun (pictured) has achieved major international media coverage about live export, like this investigation aired on French TV, highlighting live animal transport throughout and beyond Europe.

Agency Giving Fund - Canterbury & Sittingbourne
NFU Mutual Agents and their staff at the local Canterbury and Sittingbourne agency are delighted to have nominated the local Demelza Hospice Care for Children, to receive a donation of over £3,000 from a national £1m 'Agency Giving Fund' launched by NFU Mutual's Head Office.
In light of the national emergency this country is facing, NFU Mutual, the UK's leading rural insurer, has allocated £1m to help local frontline charities at this difficult time.
To help ensure this support reaches all corners of the UK, NFU Mutual has reached out to its Appointed Representative network of local Agents. Consisting of circa 300 independent Agency businesses and 9 NFU Mutual Branches, each have been given the opportunity to nominate a handful of local charities to receive a share of this fund.
Demelza Hospice Care for Children provides specialist care and emotional support for children with terminal conditions and their families throughout Kent, South East London and East Sussex. Their work is a lifeline to over 750 children, young people and families, even more so in the current pandemic.
The children have a range of different conditions, some of which are so rare, they have no name and are among the most vulnerable people in society. With very complex needs, the children are highly susceptible to infection and families have been isolated at home for over 12 weeks and many will continue to remain so for the foreseeable future to protect their children. For families struggling with the demands of long-term shielding with children with very complex needs, Demelza is a lifeline now and will continue to be once restrictions ease.
This donation will allow Demelza to continue to offer end of life services and urgent clinical care, as well as emergency respite, care in the home where it is safe to do so and online therapy services now and in the future as the world begins to open up and demand for services increases.
Since the outbreak of Coronavirus, Demelza has also been caring for children who would otherwise be in hospital and with particularly vulnerable health conditions, accepting cases from the London and Kent hospitals, working alongside NHS colleagues in a time of national emergency. NFU Mutual's donation will help Demelza to continue to support the NHS for the foreseeable future.
James Hodge, Senior Agent at NFU Mutual Canterbury and Sittingbourne, said: "The Coronavirus pandemic has had a huge impact on everybody, including our customers and their local communities. Demelza Hospice Care for Children is making a wonderful difference to our community in these challenging times, and we are proud to have been able to nominate this local charity to benefit from NFU Mutual's national fund."
Mary Haisman, Senior Corporate Partnerships Executive for Demelza Hospice Care for Children, said: "A huge thank you to NFU Mutual for choosing Demelza to benefit from their national emergency fund. As a charity, we're almost entirely dependent on the generosity of our supporters to provide the funds that keep our services going and our income has taken a significant hit as a result of the Coronavirus pandemic. This generous donation will really support our families later this year when they're going to need us the most. We are so grateful"
