Only 12% Of Music Revenue Goes To Actual Artists
from the rent-seeking-is-profitable dept
Tue, Aug 21st 2018 9:32am — Mike Masnick
Back in 2010, we posted an infographic from The Root showing just how little money that was spent on music actually went to the artist:
In 2015, using a report put out by Ernst & Young, we put together our own graphics showing how much of streaming went to the actual artists:
You may be noticing a pattern? Very little of the money being made actually goes to the artist. Now we have even more data on this. Citibank recently released a massive and incredibly thorough report on the entire music industry showing how and where the money is made. There's lots of interesting and useful information in the report, but the headline grabbing fact is that musicians end up with just about 12% of global music revenue. As I said, the report is incredibly thorough (and a really useful read if you want to get a sense of just how convoluted and complex the music business really is), but the key is that there was ~$43 billion spent on music in 2017. Approximately $25 billion of that went to everyone (outside of the labels) who helped make the music available: digital streaming services, retail stores, concert venues:
That leaves $18.2 billion in money distributed out to the labels. But of that amount, only about $5 billion actually goes to artists, which means right around 12% goes to artists:
Of course, it's especially notable that a significant chunk of that revenue going to artists actually comes from... live performances:
This shouldn't be a surprise. Hell, we've spent the better part of two decades here talking about how artists need to embrace "scarcities" where they can make money, with live shows being a big part of that. And we kept having people from the recording industry scream about us saying that, but the numbers above don't lie. Citibank notes that one of the big reasons live drives so much artist revenue: You don't have the same amount of monopolistic middlemen sucking the artists dry:
If we divide artists' incomes into four groups — Concerts, Music Platforms (Spotify, Apple, YouTube, Sirius, FM radio), Music Publishing, and Music Sales (CD, digital downloads) — it's clear that concerts have, by a wide margin, contributed most significantly to the growth in an artist's income. That's because music labels don't directly participate in concert economics. But, they do participate in the revenues collected by the various music platforms (like Spotify, Apple, Sirius and YouTube).
That statement isn't 100% accurate, as many artists these days are signed to so-called 360 contracts, in which some of their live revenue also goes to the labels, but the general concept holds. In short, reading through this report, you see that the entire music ecosystem is a huge mess. And it's not hard to see how this developed. Basically with each new layer of innovation, rather than rethinking how we handle music and copyright, we simply slapped on another set of royalties and rights. That's why there are so many different kinds of royalties that have to be paid to do basically anything in music (synch rights, mechanicals, performance rights and more for each the sound recording and the composition). In the Citibank report they show this nice graphic, which I'd argue overly simplifies the reality:
But each of these really seems to be a use of copyright to prop up another set of middlemen, and remove the effects of competition and innovation from ever touching them. And so we keep building this ever more convoluted house of cards, built on a giant mess of a copyright system, where massive inefficiencies mean that these propped up middlemen end up taking home most of the money.
And, as the Citibank report nicely summarizes, thanks to the internet, artists could connect much more directly with fans and take home a lot more money:
Oh, and the real kicker in all of this? For years, the record labels (and some musicians) have been screaming about how piracy is to blame for people no longer spending on music. Except, of course, that's hogwash. As we pointed out a few years back with our very own Sky is Rising report (and, to a lesser extent, with our Carrot or the Stick? report) there's still plenty of spending happening on music. Indeed, the Citibank report shows consumer spending at an all time high:
In short, lots of money is still going towards music, but thanks to a ridiculous historical legacy of copyright law that kept piling on new rights, rather than cleaning out obsolete ones, there's a massive inefficient infrastructure whose only purpose basically seems to be to collect a bunch of the money for themselves, leaving 12 cents on the dollar for the actual artists.

Why Government Backed Businesses Will Always Be Inefficient
from the limitations-on-actions dept
Mon, Mar 2nd 2009 1:08am — Mike Masnick
As it appears that the US government will be putting even more money into AIG beyond the $150 billion we've (us, taxpayers) have already spent, Fred Wilson has a good point about why government funded businesses will almost always act inefficiently. The very fact that every move they make is extra-scrutinized for how they're "spending our dollars" makes it almost impossible to act in ways that can help a company actually make the investments and decisions it needs to make. Instead, everything is second-guessed and scrutinized for "how will this look." This results in business decisions that are forced to respond to populist sentiment rather than good business judgment. This again raises questions of why we're propping up businesses that failed, rather than helping new entities open up.

Alan Turing, Transforming the System of Government
December 25, 2013 /0 Comments/in Articles by Others, Articles by Timothy, Culture, National, Philosophy, Political Science, Politics /by Timothy
Alan Turing was perhaps one of the greatest minds the human race has ever known. He transformed the way we think of systems, and is often referred to as the father of computer science. But even now, in death, he is helping us to analyze a different kind of system, the system of human governance.
Alan Turing was convicted of the crime of being a homosexual. The punishment for that crime led to his taking his own life. Many now understand how egregious such conviction was, and have worked hard to change the laws around homosexuality. We are witness to one of the great advances in human rights as the system of democratic pluralism is leading the way in recognizing the fundamental right to the free expression of sexual orientation.
Human institutions make mistakes. Recently, the Queen of England granted Turing a Royal Pardon. I'm glad to see this action taken. There are many acts that our Government has taken, much more horrific even than this, for which we have yet to make amends.
Most important is to learn the core lessons of such mistakes, and to implement changes to the system of government to avoid similar mistakes going forward. Alan Turing is a hero; we honor his sacrifice by learning and applying the lessons.
"Nearly 60 years after his death, Alan Turing, the British mathematician regarded as one of the central figures in the development of the computer, received a formal pardon from Queen Elizabeth II on Monday for his conviction in 1952 on charges of homosexuality, at the time a criminal offense in Britain."

In a land of selfies and shots of lunch, poetry thrives
By Michael Andor Brodeur Globe Correspondent,April 18, 2017, 10:00 p.m.
Some unexpected things happen to poetry when it's posted to Instagram.
For one thing, the poems themselves feel freed from the prison of the page, unbound from the book and bound for who knows where.
They also feel blissfully liberated from the capital-P poetry world of MFA programs and juried first book prizes — poems on Instagram feel unplaced, happened-upon (particularly given how surprising it is to find words amid the app's endless grid of selfies and still lifes of lunch).
But there's another, more significant thing that Instagram does to poetry: It can make it really, really popular.
Look at a recent day's Amazon top 10 bestsellers in poetry, and it's a virtual friends list of young Instagram poets.
Their names join the literal ranks of Rumi, Maya Angelou, and Shel Silverstein on the list; even Tyehimba Jess's masterful "Olio," which just took the Pulitzer Prize for poetry, hovers admirably at No. 18.
But before this sets all those furious quills wiggling: None of this is an attempt to suggest book sales equal quality.
Instagram being an entirely click-driven editorial wild, there are plenty of arguments to be made about the merits of what passes for poetry on the popular social media platform — more often that not, aspiring illustrated aphorisms and fragmented lyric snatches with a twist of emo.
But as bank accounts and rejection slips have long reminded poets, eyeballs are the true currency of their economy. And business is booming on Instagram.
Rupi Kaur's 1.1 million followers are there for the small, near-weekly serving of her slim, sweet, uplifting poems — often addressed to a "you," often citing a "we," and often accompanied by simple line drawings — imagine a far less mischievous Stevie Smith with a designer's eye. Meanwhile, Simon and Schuster is preparing to release "Love Her Wild," the debut volume from Instagram sensation Atticus, a few of whose 340,000 followers have committed his lines to their skin.
Not far behind in this peloton of posting poets is Brian Abbott, a 30-year-old from Marshfield who, after just two years of posting tiny poems to Instagram as @highpoetssociety, now finds himself with 222,000 followers hanging (or at least clicking) on his every word, as well as his first book whose title is taken from his IG handle.
"If you told me five years ago that this is where my life would be, that we'd be having this conversation about my poetry, I would have an anxiety attack and curl up in a ball under a blanket," he tells me over the phone.
Abbott's poetry comes from a sweet spot. He'd been a bookworm since spending hours roaming the stacks at the library in Dorchester as a child, but writing poetry never really occurred to him until a friend at UMass Boston gave him a copy of Angela Ardis's "Inside a Thug's Heart," a collection of love poetry and letters sent from the author's late ex, Tupac Shakur.
Shakur's handwritten poems showed Abbott an unseen side of his favorite rapper, and it inspired an impulse within him to try his own hand at it, privately proffering sweet nothings to his then-new girlfriend. (The poetry bug stuck around longer than she did.)
After quitting a corporate job two years ago, Abbott started to see more and more poetry filling his feed on Instagram. He furtively launched the @highpoetssociety account, downloaded a typewriter app, and started posting.
Within two months, he had over 1,000 followers — sharing his poems, rewriting them in lush calligraphy (a common tribute in IG poetry circles), and giving him confidence to keep writing. He also officially had a secret from his girlfriend. Fast forward two years and the cat has long since fled the bag: He's fully out to his friends, family, and fans as a poet — and racking 3 million views per day.
Abbott cites poets like e.e. cummings and Edgar Allen Poe as his favorites — if Poe had posted "we loved with a love that was more than love" (a line from "Annabel Lee") to Instagram, he posits, "It would have been the greatest poem ever."
But his biggest influences are his fellow Instagrammers, who seem to have collectively influenced each other into forming the scene's confessional conventions. The "Following" list on most Instagram poets' pages offer less a sense of their respective social circles than a cross section of their aesthetic cohort. Abbott, for instance, only follows 75 accounts, with his favorite writers among them. He cites J. Iron Word (403,000 followers) and S.L Gray (29,600) as particularly influential.
"I do see many advantages for Instagram being a platform for poetry," says Gray, a 21-year-old poet from Maryland. "A poem can be read more there than anywhere else. It also gives a poet some creative freedom. We aren't limited to a certain amount of characters and one font. We are also able to present our work the way we want it to be seen. You can post a photo of your poem handwritten or post a screenshot from whichever app you choose to write from."
Instagram is hardly the only social-media platform where poetry is having a go. Twitter is a hotbed of poets — and seems to be the preferred online outlet of poets straddling the line between the establishment and the Internet.
Poets like Patricia Lockwood and Melissa Broder have used Twitter to supply an ongoing stream of their voice, and Broder has also experimented with intriguing hybrids of visual and poetic work on the creative social media hub NewHive that harken back to Web 1.0 "e-poetry" explorations). The artist and poet Candystore O. McCritter has used Instagram to boost the audience of his poems — which he often publishes in the text fields of his Scruff profile.
But like everything else on the platform, poetry is changed slightly when viewed through the virtual lense of Instagram. Like a series of selfies, the poems tell you less individually than they do when taken as a composite. When you consider the way each serves to reflect and refract the self, it's no wonder that poetry and Instagram are getting along so well.
For Abbott's part, as good as Instagram has been to him, he still got a special thrill from seeing his book on the shelves of the Barnes and Noble he grew up going to.
He takes to heart a line that's stuck with him (and that he's since enshrined on his account) from Edward Frank Allen's introduction to the 1936 anthology of traditional verse, "The Best Loved Poems of the American People": "It is the preference of the people, after all, that gives permanency to poetry"
"You can make fun of me, but there's 3 million people that love it, so they win," he says, laughing. "And deep down, I just think if you love your own [expletive], that's what matters."

Joey B and Stonebwoy
Renowned Ghanaian hip-hop act, Darryl Paa Kwesi Bannerman-Martin, known as Joey B has revealed Stonebwoy is his artiste of the year.
Its unarguable that Stonebwoy has been the hardworking artiste this year, travelling to over 13 countries in this year alone, including his Europe Tour.
The reggae-dancehall artiste has also produced series of hit songs in 2019 which makes him stand tall among other musicians in Ghana.

With these statistics open to the masses, Joey B finds it prudent to crown Stonebwoy as the artiste of the year in the upcoming awarding events.
Although he admitted that he knows the year has not ended, the Tonga crooner revealed the crown fits Stone than any other.
In an interview with Jay Foley on Hitz FM, Joey B said,
Despite The Fact That Stonebwoy Signed Other Artistes, He's Still Made Time For Himself. Stonebwoy Is Like The Artiste Of The Year For Me. He Has About 4 Bangers Currently, And We Are Not Even In December

Q: Editing screenshots After taking a screenshot of a big window, I'd like to cut out the middle part(s) and move the sides closer together, so it results in a smaller picture with only relevant details displayed.
Optionally, to indicate that parts are missing, it would be nice to have a way of applying "torn edges" and shadows along the cut.
Which free desktop image editor would be the best for this task? And what are the steps? (I find most image editors have a steep learning curve.)

A: Gimp for linux or Windows.  It's the closest thing to free photoshop.

A: I would personally suggest using Greenshot.
It is a powerful open-source screenshot tool that can be configured to take a screenshot of a particular area of your desktop, bypassing the extra step of cropping. It lacks some of the photoshop-like effects and tools but it may be what you are looking for.

Should We Buy An eReader Or Wait For Tablets?
When Amazon and Sony first announced their e-book readers, I wanted to do a comparison of the products to determine which may be a better fit for your reading style. Thankfully, I waited long enough for more products to appear, and someone has put them into a handy table.

What Do We Expect From A Startup Exit?
Over the past few weeks and months, I have seen a recurring theme regarding startups and their exits. First, we saw the acquisition of FriendFeed by Facebook. During that time, FriendFeed lit up with comments and discussion about FriendFeed's exit. First, some people were congratulating the FriendFeed team for finding a successful exit, which is… Read More What Do We Expect From A Startup Exit?
Can Google Do No Wrong?
It is with much amusement that I watch most of the blogosphere fawn over the new Google toy, Fast Flip. There are comments about how this could save newspapers because Google is sharing revenue, comments about how this "packaging" is how news should have evolved, and other similar nonsense. What would people say if this… Read More Can Google Do No Wrong?

Dr. Philip Liu
Dr. Philip Liu, of Quincy, Massachusetts, and Honolulu, Hawaii, passed away on September 20, 2014. He was born on June 19, 1941 to the late Dr. Arthur F. S. Liu and Rose Lee Liu in New York City. He graduated from Trinity School in New York City, Brown University, and the State University of New York Downstate Medical Center.
In January 1962, after finishing his requirements for graduation at Brown, Phil visited his grandmother in Hawaii. It was there that he met the love of his life, Letty. Phil and Letty celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary this past August.
Phil was an intern at St. Francis Hospital in Honolulu, Hawaii, and an anesthesia resident and National Institutes of Health research fellow at Columbia-Presbyterian Medical Center in New York City. After his fellowship, Phil served in the United States Navy at St. Albans Hospital in Queens, NY. He was honorably discharged in 1972 as a Lieutenant Commander and then joined the faculty of the Department of Anesthesiology at Columbia University. Shortly thereafter, he and Letty moved to Honolulu, Hawaii. New England, however, was beckoning. After two years of private practice, Phil and Letty moved to Boston where they joined the Department of Anesthesiology at the Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School. Five years later, Phil moved to the Peter Brigham Hospital (now the Brigham and Women's Hospital). While most of his career was spent at Harvard Medical School, he also spent some years as Professor and Chair of the Department of Anesthesiology and Professor of Pharmacology and Physiology at New Jersey Medical School (now Rutgers New Jersey Medical School). Phil started his career doing scientific research in the laboratory, but his passion was anesthesia education. He was well recognized for his work both nationally and internationally and was an active member of many organizations, including the Society for Education in Anesthesia which he founded in 1984 , the American Society of Anesthesiology where he introduced and created the first Problem-Based Learning Discussion Program (PBLD) for their annual meetings, and the American Association of Medical Colleges where he served on administrative board of the Council of Academic Societies. Phil received several awards and prizes throughout his career. He was the first recipient of the SEA/Duke Award for Excellence and Innovation in Anesthesia Education (1997) and an honorary member of the Chinese American Society of Anesthesiology.
After retiring, Phil split time between Boston and Honolulu, where he enjoyed daily swims. He was an avid watcher of the stock market and enjoyed spending time with family, particularly his sister-in-law, Dr. Leila Mei Pang, and her daughters, Dr. Lani Mei Lee and Lila Mei Lee. This summer Phil and Letty journeyed to Europe and Russia.
Surviving Dr. Philip Liu are his wife, Dr. Letty Mei Pang Liu, and two brothers, David Russell Liu and his wife Karen Chang Liu (Brooklyn, New York) and their children Randall and Todd Liu, and Allan J. Liu and his wife Shirley Liu (Yorktown Heights, NY) and their children, Gregory, Scott, Lorraine Liu Bosley and her children, Rebecca and Christopher Bosley, and Russell Liu.
A memorial service will be held at the Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church (7 W. 55th St., New York, NY) on Sunday, October 5, 2014, at 3:00 PM. Interment will take place at a later date in Honolulu, Hawaii. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that a tax deductible contribution be made to: Dr. Philip Liu Fund for Medical Education, c/o Hawaii Community Foundation, 827 Fort Street Mall, Honolulu, HI 96813
Leila, Letty and Phil and I were friends and colleagues at Columbia-Presbyterian for many years. Phil was a caring doctor, an extraordinary teacher and a real mench.

I knew Philip and Letty mostly from the time of their residencies at Columbia, but of course saw them from time to time in various professional settings, mostly at national meetings. Philip was a very personable man, totally dedicated to his profession and to the advancement of education for medical students and residents. His too early passing is unfortunate, and I offer condolences and hopes for solace for his family.
posted by Robert M Epstein on 10.01.14 at 1:36 pm
Our condolences to Letty and Leila. Please advise us of any memorial service in Honolulu for Philip. Hope to see you both again.

I worked with Phil and Letty at Mass General Hospital. Letty and I worked together many years in Pediatric Anesthesia. Letty, I am so sorry for your loss.
posted by Carole Tillis on 10.01.14 at 5:23 pm
Sorry but meant to name Letty as well as Leila in our condolences.
posted by Clara and Nathaniel Ching on 10.02.14 at 12:29 am
He was truly a star and shown brightly everywhere he went.
That's what he said to me a very long time ago during my residency. It has given me so much self confidence and made me a successful Physician.

The 11.5-mile extension to Azusa opens on Saturday, March 5. The Gold Line to Pasadena currently ends at Sierra Madre Villa Station. Soon there will be six new stations: Arcadia, Monrovia, Duarte/City of Hope, Irwindale, Azusa Downtown and APU/Citrus College, which is also adjacent to the Rosedale development.

Best things about the new P3010 rail car is? Seating layout. Gone are the three-in-a-row seats that cut into the legroom of the seats adjacent and force you to make the difficult decision of "stand or squeeze into the middle seat." All seats are now two-by-two with considerably more leg room (at least, that's how it feels) and, yes, the seats are wider.
The new seats are 16 inches across — on an airplane this would be misery, but on the train it's really quite nice. I'm half and half on the reconfiguration of the seats on either side of the operator cab door. On the plus side, you'll no longer block the door of the cab with your legs. But, you'll be facing the rest of the train car and probably end up making uncomfortable eye contact with people looking your way as they check the screens above your head.
Speaking of the screens: there are two per car and they are excellent. They clearly show which station the train is at and which stops are remaining on the line.
Finally, in my initial review I mentioned the extra large decal that marks the designated bicycle/luggage/stroller area. I still love it. I love that it's big and bold and in your face so you can't pretend you didn't notice it. No more blocking doors with your bicycles and oversized bags, people. Use the space provided.

Brand new seats on the brand new train.
New seat layout so legs no longer block cab door. Good.
No excuse to not see the sign, so put your bikes where they belong when you ride.
This is the first Metro Rail project to open that was funded by Measure R, the half-cent sales tax increase approved by Los Angeles County voters in 2008.
Between now and March 5, we'll post a lot of details about the project and the communities to be served by the Gold Line. There's also a ton of info already online at the "Rediscover Gold" page on metro.net, including details of the events to be held on opening day.
I'm looking forward to trying out this new extension. I won't be needed it often as I'm in LB and mostly do the LB/LA route, but I am out there some time. One thing I'd love to see how well works is to take the Gold line and take the San Gabriel River bike trail to LB. Not really good for exercise, as it's downhill, but still want to see how nice that would be. Might be a great way for the family and kids to go for a good ride. Looks like alot of the route is real easy and pretty darn safe.
The Irwindale Station is near the bike trail — it's on the other side of the MillerCoors brewery. I've been trying to figure out a good and safe route from the station directly to the bike trail without first going to the recreation area at the dam. If anyone has any suggestions, let me know.
There is the back door into the Santa Fe Dam park at the end of Peckham Road, south of the brewery and First Street, which leads directly to the bike path for people going south. The Peckham gate is normally closed for cars but is not fenced, and it only works when the park is open, since you are not supposed to be there after dark, but it works for people trying to head south. You do have to bike on Irwindale Avenue for a short distance, but no parking is allowed in the curb lane. It doesn't help those trying to go north, though, without backtracking.
Thanks Calwatch! I'll check it out next time I'm over there.
There is also a planned (or in the works?) bike path that will better connect the City of Hope parking lot to the San Gabriel River trail. LA County seems to be the responsible agency.
What Calwatch said. Looking forward to biking from Irwindale Station to the Renaissance Faire when it returns to Santa Fe Dam in April. Huzzah!
Note to riders wearing suits of armor: please don't take up two seats.
Nice video, and how about a music credit?
The gold wraparound on the front of the new P3010s looks good and, importantly, makes the otherwise ugly grey cars less stealthy at grade crossings.
Hopefully the P2550s can be painted to match – who decided that 'all grey' was a appropriate LR car color choice?
The music credit is near the beginning of the video.
The new "sunburst" paint scheme will eventually be used on all rail cars.
How far and walkable will it be from the Irwindale Station to Santa Fe Dam? Curious to see if the Gold Line can be another transit option to the Renaissance Faire this spring.
It's a bit of a walk — a little more than three miles if you entered the recreation area from Arrow Highway. It's shorter if you can enter from Peckham Road. Does anyone reading this know if that's an entrance? I'll definitely look into it before the line opens and scout it out.
There is an "authorized vehicles only" sign in front of the gate but there's no fence and you can easily get around it. Ultimately the DPW bike path from Duarte will be better for people trying to get much further south (when it is completed), but for going through the park or bypassing heavy truck traffic on Irwindale Avenue this is a good option.
Thanks for posting that. Agree that the Irwindale Ave route is hardly ideal. I'll ask our bike folks too about this.
it's a great place to walk around, eat, etc. And they have the open market on Friday nights.
Old Town Monrovia is great. It's about a mile walk from the station up Myrtle Avenue — you can also get there by walking north on Magnolia and then east on Walnut (slightly longer and the preferred bike route). Metro's 270 bus and Foothill Transit's 494 bus can be used. Check the bus schedules for service times and schedules. Hopefully the city will keep working on connecting Old Town to the station.

Unlike other globally known internet companies, Numbrs provides opportunities not only to experienced professionals with university degrees but also to talented newcomers and self-taught people.

We love open source, and we love clean code.
Technology belongs in the hands of engineers. Numbrs developers understand that building the best product requires access to the best technology. Our developers cannot be found on the stages of conferences, as they are not self-promoters. They can be found being with their teams.

I cannot stop myself from gushing about these two. They are fun, creative, personable... just plain awesome! We had SO much fun at their engagement shoot back in February and I was anticipating their wedding ALL SEASON. They did NOT disappoint! Their entire wedding was retro/film inspired as they are big movie buffs, and it was one of the most heartfelt ceremonies I have ever attended, including two movies made by their incredibly talented friends. OKAY! Enough gushing... on to the pictures!


It's been a week since The Bachelor Wedding and we haven't stopped dreaming over how beautiful it was. If you didn't watch it, do it now here.
Obviously, we can't all have ABC pay for our wedding while having Mindy Weiss plan every detail with us and have the fabulous Mark's Garden as our florist and have an unlimited budget in the process. So, this got us thinking. How can we get Sean and Catherine's look for less?
From the gorgeous ceremony back drop… …To the unique seating for guests….
…And even their trendy naked wedding cake.
We love this picture because it encompasses so many elements from Sean and Catherine's ceremony….chandeliers, roses and draping fabric.
These are just a few. The ideas are endless.
Finally, that naked wedding cake. Does anyone else remember our local McDonough celebrities, Matt and Ginny? You can keep up with them here. Well, they had a naked cake before naked cakes were cool.
Ladies, this is one part of Sean and Catherine's day that you can re-create without cutting any corners. Yep, naked cakes are completely affordable.
Until the next bachelor wedding… we'll all keep re-creating this one.
If you want a behind the scenes peak of their big day, check out Sean's sisters blog here.


Fondant baulois, langouille de Brière, salicornes des marshes, niniches of confectionery Manuel, caramels with salted butter, seafood, mussels of Pénestin, the list of gastronomic specialties is long in around the Léveno campsite.
At the crossroads of Brittany and Pays de la Loire , Guérande has a local specialty whose reputation is second to none: Salt salt marshes. Widely used in salty or sweet recipes, the white gold, as it is called in the region guerandaise, brings a particular touch to the dishes and other delicacies. It declines generously in all sauces.
The Terre de Sel museum allows you to discover this unique universe. Sablés bretons, kouign aman, not to mention the essential caramel salted butter, gourmands are spoiled for choice. Biscuiteries also offer a range of local products to bring back as holiday memories or for the simple pleasure of tasting.
Of all the essential specialties to taste, cakes and pancakes are the most Breton. Gourmet and generous, full pancakes or salted butter caramel pancakes, we like to eat without moderation during the holidays. At any time of the day, they can be enjoyed without hunger .
Only 10 minutes from the sea and many ports like Croisic, Pouliguen or Piriac , seafood specialties are numerous in around Guérande . We enjoy a stay at the Domaine de Léveno to taste crustaceans, shells and other seafood freshly sins.
The salty recipes are not lacking either: Fish soups, terrines, sardine rillettes and mackerel, briaronne langouille, mussels and fries, are all good tastings to do during your magic holidays on the 4-star campsite in Léveno.


Existing data for the electromagnetic proton form factors and for the cross section of the wide angle Compton scattering (WACS) show that the hard two-gluon exchange mechanism (collinear factorization) is still not applicable in the kinematical region where Mandelstam variables s ~ −t ~ −u are about few GeV2. On the other hand these observables can be described in phenomenological models where spectator quarks are soft which assumes a large contribution due to the soft-overlap mechanism. It turns out that the simple QCD factorization picture is not complete and must also include the soft-overlap contribution which can be described as a certain matrix element in the soft collinear effective theory (SCET). Then the leading power contribution to WACS amplitude is described as a sum of the hard- and soft-spectator contributions. The existing experimental data allows one to check certain conclusions based on the assumption about dominant role of the soft-spectator mechanism.

This contract is additive to a February 2006 contract for $99.7 million.
DID has been covering Greece's $3.1 billion F-16 buy since July 2005, when that country canceled a $6 billion order for 60 Eurofighters in favor of a 2-phase buy that would begin with more F-16s. See DID's article covering Greece's F-16 purchase, including updates; below, we've also included the DSCA December 8, 2006 announcement of Greece's $104 million precision weapons request for its F-16s…
On December 08, 2006, the US DSCA (Defense Security Cooperation Agency) notified Congress of a possible Foreign Military Sale to Greece of F-16C/D munitions, as well as associated equipment and services. The total value, if all options are exercised, could be as high as $104 million. Items requested include:
40 AGM-154-C Joint Standoff Weapons (JSOW). The JSOW-C precision glide bomb incorporates an imaging infrared seeker for high precision, and adds a Broach multi-stage warhead that has both hard target penetration and blast-fragmentation capability. The JSOW glide-bomb is also popular with Greece's rival Turkey;
100 GBU-31 Joint Direct Attack Munitions (JDAM) GPS/INS guidance Kits;
200 CBU-103 Wind Corrected Munitions Dispenser (WCMD) with FZU-39 Proximity Mechanisms – these are similar to JDAM, but are cluster bombs. The CBU-103 variant is a 1,000 pound bomb with anti-personnel munitions inside.
100 Enhanced Paveway II with BLU-109. The BLU-109/B is an improved 2,000-pound-class bomb designed as a penetrator for hardened targets like bunkers. Enhanced Paveway kits add GPS as well as laser guidance to bombs.
136 Enhanced Paveway II with MK-84 Warheads. Mk-84 warheads are conventional 2,000 pound bombs.
Also included are JSOW training missiles, BRU-57/A Smart Rack Launchers, containers, system integration and testing, sensors, missile modifications, fuzes, software development/integration, test sets and support equipment, spare and repair parts, publications and technical data, maintenance, personnel training and training equipment, U.S. Government and contractor representatives, contractor engineering and technical support services, and other related elements of logistics support.
The principal contractors will be:
Boeing Integrated Defense Systems in Arlington, Virginia (JDAM)
Lockheed Martin Missiles and Fire Control in Orlando, Florida (JSOW, WCMD)
Raytheon Missile Systems in Tucson, Arizona (Enhanced Paveway)

Diving into the Bingara Pool will no longer knock the breath out of your lungs, thanks to a $229,834 project funded by the NSW Government that promises to keep the water at a balmy 28 degrees throughout the winter months.
With the pool now closed for winter, Member for Northern Tablelands met with swimmers from Bingara Central School recently to announce that major upgrades would soon extend the popular facility's operating season.
Adam Marshall visited the club's junior members to deliver the good news recently.
"Bingara has produced a promising group of local swimmers, but the local pool is only just treading water," Mr Marshall said. "The 55-year-old facility has been battling with leaks for years and the region's frigid winters have limited usage to a five month window from mid-October to late March.
"Thanks to a new solar heater and pool blanket, the water will be kept to a comfortable 28 degrees through a longer swim season, giving promising young swimmers a better opportunity to hone their aquatic skills.
Funding for the project has come from the NSW Government's Stronger Country Communities Fund, part of the $1.3 billion Regional Growth Fund dedicated to improving community amenities in rural and regional areas.
Mr Marshall said that extensive works would resurface the pool to prevent further leaks, while Gwydir Shire Council also planned to convert the 33⅓ metre pool into a standard 25-metre competition format.
"Council has been battling with leaks for years, yet attempts to plug the many holes have been found to be expensive and temporary," Mr Marshall said. "A new lining will stop leaks, saving the community thousands of litres of water and driving down running costs, delivering residents a better return on their rates.
Gwydir Shire Mayor John Coulton said upgrading the pool was a longstanding priority for council. "The Bingara Pool is an essential facility for the town, both of our towns are very passionate about swimming, and you need somewhere to be able to learn this vital skill," Cr Coulton said.

T-Mobile 5G Network Launched
By: Wayne Rash | December 04, 2019
eWEEK NEWS AND TREND ANALYSIS: 5G coverage covers vast areas of the United States with standards-based signals using lower frequencies to provide building penetration and rural coverage.
Beginning Dec. 2, T-Mobile began lighting up its nationwide 5G network. The company said that its 5G network will reach more than 200 million people in over 5,000 cities and towns in the United States. According to the company, the initial launch will cover over 1 million square miles.
The company was able to switch on so much coverage at once because it had already built out its 600MHz LTE coverage, which is now operational. When the company put LTE in those new cells, it included a 5G capability that only needed a software update to switch on the 5G part of the cell. T-Mobile has now done that.
Go here to see eWEEK's Resource Page on Intent-Based Networking.
This puts T-Mobile ahead of the other U.S. carriers in launching a 5G network. Verizon and AT&T are implementing millimeter-wave 5G networks in select urban areas, and both companies are working their way through U.S. cities, lighting them up as sites become available. For example, Verizon has recently published its 5G coverage map for the Washington, D.C., metro area, and according to that map, 5G coverage is available mainly in the business district and in tourist areas. Notably, Verizon also covers Amazon's HQ2.

Don't Ignore Impact of Bad Audio on Employee Well-Being
The difference between Verizon and its 18 cities and T-Mobile is that T-Mobile's map includes the entire United States. Washington, D.C., appears to be covered in its entirety, as does the San Francisco Bay area and the Seattle area. Interestingly, Puerto Rico is solidly covered with 5G.
AT&T Slowly Rolling Out Its Own 5G Network
For its part, AT&T is available in parts of 21 cities, but it's not available to consumers.
What's also notable about T-Mobile's coverage map is that the company superimposed the 5G coverage on the existing 4G LTE coverage map. This is important because T-Mobile is using what's called non-standalone 5G. This means that 5G phones will use it when they can get it but also will change to 4G LTE when they can't.
"As customers move in and out of 5G coverage, the coverage will be seamless," said Mark McDiarmid, T-Mobile's SVP of radio network engineering and development. "The phones will automatically see that coverage."
While T-Mobile will continue to support its existing millimeter-wave installations, the bulk of the effort right now is in the lower bands.
Millimeter waves are radiation in the extremely high frequency (EHF) band, sometimes abbreviated MMW or mmW or mmWave. Radio waves in this band have wavelengths from 10 to one millimeter, so it is also called the millimeter band. Millimeter-length electromagnetic waves were first investigated by Bengali Indian physicist Jagadish Chandra Bose during 1894-1896, when he reached up to 60GHz in his experiments.
"600[MHz] covers wide areas and penetrates buildings very well," McDiarmid said. "We think a multi-band strategy is the right strategy." He said that if the Sprint acquisition goes through, then its mid-band frequencies will provide comprehensive coverage.
T-Mobile: Three Complementary Bands
"We have three bands that are complementary," he said. "You get the benefits of each of the bands, and it requires no refarming." He said that by doing its 5G implementation this way, T-Mobile doesn't need to displace any customers.
"The plan started three years ago, and it's 4G and 5G simultaneously in all bands," McDiarmid explained. "The way we're built this network is that they get access to the 4G they really enjoy, and we add the 5G."
T-Mobile is also announcing the concurrent availability of two 5G phones; one is a OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren, and the other is a Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ 5G. Both phones will work on T-Mobile's 5G and LTE frequencies as well as on Sprint's mid-band.
However, these phones won't support T-Mobile's millimeter wave signals. McDiarmid said the company will have 15 5G phones next year. Those phones will be available for T-Mobile and Metro, its prepaid service.
According to the T-Mobile announcement, its 5G will be offered at the same cost as its existing service. Likewise, the new 5G phones appear to be priced similarly to existing LTE phones. To some extent, this may be part of T-Mobile's effort to show that it's not raising prices after the Sprint merger, if it happens. That merger has been approved by the government, with only a civil court case standing in the way of the deal closing. One issue in that court case is that T-Mobile might raise prices once the merger happens.
T-Mobile Is in the Lead--for Now
At this point, T-Mobile has a significant leg up in the 5G race. While its 5G coverage is indeed nationwide, it's by no means complete. But it's far more complete than the competition. And while 600MHz 5G won't provide the blinding speeds and massive bandwidth that will come with millimeter-wave 5G, right now that's a long way off for everyone.
What will come with T-Mobile's 5G are things that the millimeter-wave version can't deliver. You get broad geographical coverage, building penetration and predictable propagation. You will still get the efficiency and low latency that 5G promises. And because of T-Mobile's mid-band plans (assuming the Sprint merger happens), there will be 5G coverage to meet a variety of needs, not just the dense urban coverage in some parts of some cities.
So while it may not be the 5G that's mostly science fiction at this point, assuming it's done right, you'll get 5G that's useful and available.

From the Bradford riots to Black Lives Matter: reflections on fundamental British values, Dr Ümit Yildiz
posted on 18.05.2021, 15:11 by Umit Yildiz
Following the murder of George Floyd in Minneapolis by a police officer, mass anti-racist demonstrations spread from the streets of the USA to Britain. The removal of the statue of slave trader Colston in Bristol by Black Lives Matter protesters was a reminder to the British public that the roots of racism on both sides of the Atlantic lie in the transatlantic slave trade and colonialism. This grassroots struggle has boosted the existing movement to decolonise education in the UK. "However, this task is more complex than removing statues, as the remnants of colonialist views are so entrenched within the education system that they can seem innocuous. The promotion of fundamental British values (FBVs) is an example of this.
Dr Ümit Yildiz
Although the notion of FBVs first appeared in the Conservative and Liberal Democrat Coalition government's revised Prevent strategy in 2011, the seeds of its definition were sown after the summer of 'race' riots in northern towns in 2001 and the September 11 attacks in the USA. The Prevent strategy stated that FBVs are 'democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty and mutual respect and tolerance of different faiths and beliefs'. In 2012, the Teachers' Standards included these values and required all teachers 'not to undermine fundamental British values'. In November 2014, the Coalition government produced guidelines on promoting 'fundamental British values'. In September 2015, the newly elected Conservative government transformed this guidance to a full duty, as defined in Section 26 of the new Counter Terrorism and Security Act 2015. Since the introduction of FBVs in the educational sphere school managements, educators, teacher trainers and academics have been interpreting this policy and the related values. These interpretations have been varied; some highlighted its importance, some criticised its muddled meaning and some raised the question: if teachers do not promote these values what should they be replaced with? I will challenge these interpretations from an anti-racist and anti-imperialist stand point and offer an alternative perspective on the notion of FBVs. I will consider the ontology of the notion of FBVs and analyse why it is defined as such, what makes the notion of FBVs problematic and why educators should collectively reject its promotion.
