"We Said We Wouldn't Look Back": Utopia and the backward glance in Dorothy Reynolds and Julian Slade's Salad Days
Adiseshiah, Sian (2011) "We Said We Wouldn't Look Back": Utopia and the backward glance in Dorothy Reynolds and Julian Slade's Salad Days. Studies in Musical Theatre, 5 (2). pp. 149-161. ISSN 1750-3159
Full content URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.1386/smt.5.2.149_1
The 1954 British musical Salad Days has been almost completely neglected by academics, partly, it seems because it is assumed to be light, frothy nonsense with no real significance. Its neglect is particularly noteworthy considering Salad Days' huge popularity in its own time. But this musical is far from conservative; the protagonists are a young graduate couple, who try to circumvent the restrictions of the grim world of the diegetic narrative and more specifically the gendered and classed roles expected of them. This article revisits Salad Days, reading it as a utopian text and in doing so repositions the show as an articulation of utopian desire for the 'not-yet' of a more liberated future. Although, the novel has been the traditional home of utopia, musical theatre is considered here to contain forms that can circumvent the regulations of prose fiction. The abstract and non-representational nature of music and performance makes them effective modes for articulating utopian desire. Salad Days uses both utopian and nostalgic sensibilities, and this article explores ways in which the utopian modes challenge ideological boundaries, and the backward glance signifies mourning for lost opportunities.

Ida Rønshaugen started her master's degree in music education in 2014. She submitted her master thesis in May 2016. Interviewing professional jazz musicians, she sought to find out how they benefit from mental training. Read more about what she discovered in this interview.
The project comes under the CEMPE focus area of musical practice, and Rønshaugen's findings will be relevant to the development projects Teaching of practising, Cross-genre practising, and Interdisciplinary practising.
Tore Brox is looking at the challenges facing Norwegian music students as they enter a changing labour market. He poses the question "Which type of challenges do newly qualified musicians face in the labour market and how does their course of study prepare them for these challenges?" He started his master's degree in music education in autumn 2015.
Brox' master project ties in with the CEMPE development projects Independent music careers and Professional music practice.
The aim of the master scholarships from NOKUT is to inspire students to carry out master projects that will create new perspectives for the work of the centre. The students receiving the scholarships should be actively involved in CEMPE's work. We will continue to follow Ida and Tore and share more details about their work.


On Wednesdays and days when money is tight, I usually try to bring my lunch to save time and funds (Wednesdays are our production days at the paper).
Really and truly, money being tight has been nice in some ways. It forces creativity in meal planning; I've tried a lot of different ideas.
I cubed pork loin, like I did for Emma, quartered a couple of slices of provolone, added some of the grape tomatoes our next door neighbor grew and made a sandwich with wheat Deli Thins, cream cheese, dill and sliced cucumber. It was SO good that I'm making it again for dinner!
You can see that I cut a star shape out (and flipped it over, cream cheese side up). What can I say? Even mommies like pretty lunches.

Q: How to use ordinal logistic regression with random effects? In my study I will be measuring workload with several metrics. With heart-rate variability (HRV), electrodermal activity (EDA) and with a subjective scale (IWS). After normalization the IWS has three values:

*

*Workload lower than normal

*Workload is average

*Workload is higher than normal.

I want to see how well the physiological measures can predict subjective workload.
Therefore I want to use ratio data to predict ordinal values. According to: How do I run Ordinal Logistic Regression analysis in R with both numerical / categorical values? this is easily done by using the MASS:polr function.
However, I also want to account for random effects such as between-subject differences, gender, smoking etc. Looking at this tutorial, I don't see how I can add random effects to MASS:polr. Alternatively lme4:glmer would then be an option, but this function only allows the prediction of binary data.
Is it possible to add random effects to an ordinal logistic regression?

A: Yes, it is possible to include random effects in an ordinal regression model.  Conceptually, this is the same as including random effects in a linear mixed model.  Although the UCLA site only demonstrates the polr() function in the MASS package, there are a number of facilities for fitting ordinal models in R.  There is a broader (but less detailed) overview here.  The only way I know of to include random effects in R uses the ordinal package, though.  I work through an example here: Is there a two-way Friedman's test?

A: In principle you can make the machinery of any logistic mixed model software perform ordinal logistic regression by expanding the ordinal response variable into a series of binary contrasts between successive levels (e.g. see Dobson and Barnett Introduction to Generalized Linear Models section 8.4.6). However, this is a pain, and luckily there are a few options in R:

*

*the ordinal package, via the clmm and clmm2 functions (clmm = Cumulative Link Mixed Model)

*the mixor package, via the mixor function

*the MCMCglmm package, via family="ordinal" (see ?MCMCglmm)

*the brms package, e.g. via family="cumulative" (see ?brmsfamily)

The latter two options are implemented within Bayesian MCMC frameworks.  As far as I know, all of the functions quoted (with the exception of ordinal::clmm2) can handle multiple random effects (intercepts, slopes, etc.); most of them (maybe not MCMCglmm?) can handle choices of link function (logit, probit, etc.).
(If I have time I will come back and revise this answer with a worked example of setting up ordinal models from scratch using lme4)

Podcasting has been going down bi-weekly with success! They are hella fun to do and it's cool to get some different perspectives in the mix. The last two got automatically cleared from my hard drive (sorry to Basement Beers and Floral, we shall chat again soon :/).
We are releasing three more LPs within the next few months, once we get a little closer we'll make more officially posts about em. Some really cool music coming out for the first time on wax though.


Art in General is delighted to announce that it will be working in collaboration with kim? Contemporary Art Centre in Riga, Latvia to curate the Latvian Pavilion for the 55th Venice Biennale. The Biennale exhibition, titled North by Northeast, will present new site-specific works by Latvian artists Kaspars Podnieks and Krišs Salmanis.
As part of this exciting new collaboration Art in General is pleased to present a pre pavilion presentation in the storefront Project Space, March 5 – March 30, 2013. The exhibition features existing works by Kaspars Podnieks and Krišs Salmanis that are intrinsically related to their Venice installation. Krišs Salmanis' Long Day, 2012, a 35 mm film (sound by Steve Roden), appears to be a single shot of a rural landscape, speeded up as we observe a day from sunrise to sunset. In the dawn we see a shed being built, by midday the construction is complete; in the afternoon, however, a storm sets in, and the structure is reduced to ruins. Eventually it collapses, and the sun sets. In Kaspars Podnieks' photographs from the Rommel's dairy series we meet the residents of Drusti parish, a small rural community. A sudden rupture invalidates our expectations for the genre – as people of Drusti are being displaced, uprooted from their land, physically lifted high above the route they walk and the landscape they see day by day.
A press conference with the participating artists and representatives from Art in General and kim? Contemporary Art Centre will be held in New York at 12 noon on Tuesday March 5 at Art in General. The Biennale collaboration heralds one of several new partnerships between Art in General and organizations in Latvia, Lithuania, and Egypt, among others, that will support the commissioning of new work and international exchange throughout 2013.

Discussion in 'CycleChat Cafe' started by dangerousjules, 16 Aug 2007.
today i took my sorry self out on the road, canary wharf(e.london) to brighton...the first time i've covered this sort of distance. 40miles in the bonk monkey was tap dancing on my shoulders and was certain i was gonna have to flop out of my mission and stop halfway i decieded the sainsburys local that i was approching might help me out although i was'nt hopeful.two red bulls later and a 10 minute rest i was back on top and feeling great and managed to get there...73 miles and chuffed that i made it!
has red bull or another 'pick me up' helped you make it to your destination!
please note purely legal substances to be discussed!
Well done for not giving up!
I bonked 10 miles short of my destination (a 60-miler) a few months ago, guzzled some chocolate milk, had a hot-dog and some pastries. Then it really pi$$ed down so I stopped.
I felt better after about 20 mins and could/should have gone on to journey's end, but I was a bit full up!
Best to try and avoid the avoidable by making sure you're charged up!
Inrbru 32 I was given two cans by someone for a drink as thats all they had after a 25 ride, 10 mins after drinking it when I got to my house I was that full of energy that I had to go out and do another 25.
I had to go out I had no other option I was very hyper if I went in the house I would have been running up the walls.
They do work these drinks, I don't think its good for you to take all that caffeine in unless you really need it.
Some of these drinks are banned in some countries like Sweden and Denmark.
I drink Red bull from time to time but have never used it as a refresher from 'the bonk'. When I do bonk all I want is to get home!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I expect, for some of the posters here, the reverse is true!
A different 'bonk' I think, Aperitif !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Right, let's inject a note of caution.
"Energy drinks" typically contain as much caffeine as four or five expressos. 2 of them is a LOT of caffeine.
They also contain a lot of sugar to give you something to burn when the caffeine rush kicks in.
Caffeine has quite pronounced effects on the pancreas and therefore your insulin and blood sugar levels. It also affects the kidneys, the heart, and your mood.
Further, the caffeine masks the body's normal stress signals so that you don't know when you are in trouble.
Bonking (fnarr!) occurs when the body has used all the available glycogen in the muscles and has to start using fat as fuel. The body is already weakened - dumping ten expressos and half a bag of sugar into it is going to give it a lot to cope with. You could compare it to using aviation fuel in a car engine - you'll go very fast, until you burn out the gaskets, cylinder liners and cooling system.
Drinking red bull or similar is unlikely to lead to a long-term training effect as the artificial stimulation will prevent the body from making its own adaptations to become stronger. You're also more likely to end up an insomniac diabetic with kidney failure and marked mood swings. You will of course be single and unemployed by this stage as your partner and your employer will no longer be able to cope with your unpredicability.
If you want energy, eat a banana. If you want a pick-me-up, eat an apple.
i have yet in my life ever depended on an apple or a banana for a 'pick me up'...i don't think they're up to the job really!

How Much Is A Ventriloquist Dummy?
First, I have to let people know Maher Studios no longer makes or sells figures.
At one time Maher sold a bunch of figures because it was hard to find someone who built them. Maher created ventriloquists through the courses. People knew and trusted the studio, so it made sense to get a figure there.
Now you can Google Ventriloquist Figure Builder or Maker and you will get thousands of results.
You wouldn't believe the number of folks that assume we still sell them. I'll be asked about a specific figure from a long ago out-of-print catalog. Or someone will see a figure on one of Clinton's old blog sites and think it is still for sale.
So Clinton's marketing still pulls in people. It is a shame they didn't go to him before he had to close the studio in 2006.
Well, do you want to buy a Ford Pinto or a Jaguar?
Just like cars, figures come in all different shapes, sizes and qualities.
The reputation of the maker plays a roll.
And of course, it truly depends on what you like.
I recommend people visit Maher's Ventriloquist Resources page. There I have a list of puppet makers and figure builders. You can visit their websites and see their work. When you find something that matches your vision, you can contact the builder/maker directly.
Keep in mind that one of a kind puppets or figures take a lot of time to create. No one gets rich from it. Very few are making their living from it.
So don't haggle or complain about prices. You wouldn't do that to your doctor.
Respect the artistry and artist.
You will get a better performing partner and you will enjoy sharing with the world.

European inventories were 76.70 percent full as of December 30, 2014, from 68.52 percent a year ago, according to Gas Infrastructure Europe, a lobby group of pipeline operators in Brussels.
521.03 million cubic meters of gas was withdrawn from storage facilities of Europe. Storage sites contained 63.95 billion cubic meters of gas which is 10.16 billion cubic meters more than 53.79 billion cubic meters of 2013 gas storage the same day. A net withdrawal from storage of 2.06 Bcm for the week resulted in storage levels 18.88 % more than year-ago levels.
Ukraine has reduced natural gas reserves in its underground gas storage facilities by 30.92%, or by 5.18 billion cubic meters , since the start of the 2014-2015 heating season, according to preliminary data from gas transport operator Ukrtransgaz.
As of October 19 2014, Ukrainian facilities had 16.75 billion cubic meters of gas at the end of its gas injection season, while this figure was 11.57 billion cubic meters as of December 30 which means the storage is %36.23 full now.
During the week ending on December 30, Ukraine withdrew average of 66 million cubic meters of gas per day.Ukraine storage may cover as much as 175 days of consumption within this last week's average.

Canada's share has climbed to about %42 of U.S. oil import.
Canada's share of U.S. oil imports is dwarfing Mexico and Saudi Arabia, as the country is faced with few outlets for its growing oil sands production.
The chart tracks the proportion of U.S. crude oil imports supplied by Canada, Saudi Arabia and Mexico since November 2004, when each provided a bit more than 15 percent of demand. Canada's dominance started in 2006, when output from Alberta's oil sands formations boosted the country's production to a then-record 3.29 million barrels a day. Its share has climbed to about 42 percent while the others combine for 24 percent.
Canadian production rose 5.6 percent to a record last year and is projected by the U.S Energy Information Administration to reach 4.47 million barrels a day in 2015. The country's refineries can process 2.12 million barrels a day, according to the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers.
"Canadian production has only a limited range of outlets, so as production grows it moves across the border to the U.S.," Tim Evans, an energy analyst at Citi Futures Perspective in New York, said by phone yesterday. "A lot is shipped by rail and by pipelines that run to the Midwest where refineries have upgraded" to cope with the Canadian barrels.
U.S. imports of Canadian crude climbed to a record 3.13 million barrels a day in September, the most recent month with comparable data, according to the EIA. That compares with 1 million from Saudi Arabia and 816,000 from Mexico, 22 percent lower than a year earlier.

Lng market report December 2014
Demand for LNG on an in-tank basis in Spain continued to be weak, traders said ,referring to the recent market.One AOC-based trader heard a bid of €28.00/MWh for December lifting ($10.20/MWh) on an in-tank basis on 7 November. Once the third-party costs associated with reloading had been added, this would put a reload at around the $11.00-11.20/MMBtu range, another trader commented on 11 November.
The near total lack of any netback was not that relevant, the trader believed, as it feels that the Spanish FOB (free on board) prices had now more or less decoupled from East Asian prices.
Traders agreed that there was apparently little interest for the time being in Spanish FOB material. Executing reloads out of Spain remains difficult at current global spot levels, and it was heard that there was still interest in products that allow in-tank volume delivery to be deferred.
One trader stated that prior to the expiry of the November'14 contract at the end of October, a buyer had been prepared to pay a €1.50/MWh ($0.55/MMBtu) premium for the right to swap in-tank LNG for November delivery for December instead. There is also evidence that Spanish counterparties are now looking to regasify more LNG from tank, rather than reloading it, with regasification rates from Barcelona hitting almost 89GWh on 10 November. This is compared with an average of 37GWh/day over the month to date.
Similary, at Huelva, Sagunto and Reganosa, in the port of Ferrol, all four terminals were at close to 80% fullness on 10 November, according to nominations data from Spanish gas transmission system operator (TSO) Enagas.
"[Full LNG stock levels] seems to be having a positive impact on regasification, which is very high in a relatively high demand context (system demand of above 1 TWh/ day) with no extremely cold weather," one terminal source commented.
"The Spanish gas system is full of LNG, I heard that some shippers are asking to delay unloading as terminal tanks are full," it added. Sellers would cut pipeline imports to balance this increase, another trader said.
The 151,945 million cubic metre (mcm) British Ruby will şift a 138,000cbm reload at the Saggas LNG terminal on 14 November, data from the port of Sagunto and Enagas showed on Tuesday, in a late change to an earlier published schedule, as until Monday vessel tracking data showed Cartagena as the ship's destination.
Until 10 November, a separate BP vessel, the 138,283cbm British Innovator, had been scheduled to dock at Sagunto on Tuesday 11 November. However, the vessel actually discharged a total of 791GWh (134,960cbm of LNG) into Gate instead, according to vessel data and information from the Gate LNG terminal in Rotterdam. The vessel is now at anchor outside of the Spanish port, although it is not yet clear where the vessel will head to next.
The 150,981cbm Explorer is meanwhile also due into Sagunto on 12 November, port data shows. The Excelerate-controlled vessel is en route from Aliaga in Turkey, according to vessel data.

Working gas in underground storage compared with the 5 year max min
Natural gas prices at most market locations outside the Northeast fell in each day of trading, supported by weaker power sector demand and forecasts of more moderate temperatures. With well-below-normal temperatures forecast in many areas over the holiday weekend (Thursday through Sunday), prices in the Midwest and Midcontinent regions rose 10 to 15 cents/MMBtu in trading on Wednesday, but fell 30 to 40 cents on Monday. Similar price movements occurred at market locations in the West, as well as at the Henry Hub in Louisiana. After increasing 12 cents/MMBtu in trading last Wednesday, the Henry Hub spot price started the report week at $4.24/MMBtu, and then declined 34 cents/MMBtu on Monday. Spot prices at the Henry Hub declined further in trading Tuesday and Wednesday, ending the report week at $3.63/MMBtu.

Ukraine nuclear power reactors operating
The decision to build ZAES was made in 1978 year.In 1981 began the phased construction of th power units. For in 1984 - 1,987 g. put into operation four units.
In 1989 g. began to operate five units, and the sixth - only in 1995 , after the cancellation of the moratorium on the construction of nuclear facilities in Ukraine. Starting block sixth International Institute of Finance and Economic Partnership ( USA ) noted Zaporizhzhya NPP "Torch of Birmingham". This award is given to companies for successful economic survival and development in the sphere of market relations.
Annually station generates about 40 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity, which is a fifth of the total annual electricity production in the country and half of its production at Ukrainian nuclear power plants.
According to the results of a 2000 g. Zaporizhzhya NPP recognized as one of the top three nuclear power plants in the world that fully meet the requirements of the IAEA .The Zaporizhzhya NPP - the first among Ukraine nuclear power plants with VVER type reactors - built dry storage of spent nuclear fuel ( DSFSF ).Technology Zaporozhye DSFSF based on collections storage of spent fuel in ventilated concrete containers located at the site within the power plant.Project scope DSFSF in Zaporizhzhya NPP - 380 containers that provide for the next 50 years spent fuel storage collections to be removed from the reactor during the life of the station.

A new facility for treatment solid radioactive waste is under construction at the site of Zaporozhe nuclear power plant, to be commissioned in 2015. It will be fitted with a state-of-the-art incinerator of Danish design.
At the end of 1995 Zaporozhe unit 6 was connected to the grid making Zaporozhe the largest nuclear power station in Europe, with a net capacity of 5718 MWe. (The second largest station operating is Gravelines, near Dunkerque in France, with a net capacity of 5460 MWe.)
In addition to the initial supply of fuel from Westinghouse, other aims of the project included the transfer of technology for the design of nuclear fuel. Westinghouse supplied a total of 630 fuel assemblies for South Ukraine 2 & 3 and Zaporozhe 5, though the trials to 2011 were deemed unsuccessful, with Energoatom claiming that manufacturing defects in the fuel led to a lengthy unscheduled outage at two of the units, while Westinghouse said that errors had been made during fuel loading. Each reactor has 163 fuel assemblies.

Japan might import LNG more than they need
Japanese LNG buyers may have over-committed to gas under long-term contracts if nuclear reactors restart soon, and US tolling deals are not a one-way bet.Japan could find itself at the receiving end of a series of unneeded LNG cargoes as the restart of nuclear plants might happen faster than the buyers had foreseen, according to the CEO of the Institute of Energy Economics Japan, Masakazu Toyoda.
In an interview with Platts he explained that the potential restart of 60% of Japan's nuclear capacity - a total of 48 reactors - plus an improved run rate of 20-25%, would displace up to 20 million mt/year of LNG demand in the country."If nuclear reactors restart, the volume of gas [required] would go down," Toyoda said, adding that at current levels, 20 million mt/year would account for between 15% and 20% of total Japanese LNG demand.
henry hub jkm price difference
With approvals to restart Sendai 1 and 2 reactors granted by the local government, Toyoda said he was optimistic that the units could be operational as early as January 2015. He added that other plants would follow."No one knows how quickly the nuclear restarts can be realized... we have a good model now though, so I hope things will move quickly," he said."In the next 2-3 years, the conventional gas market will shrink in Japan, so they [the buyers] will have more gas than they need," Toyoda explained.
A recent report from Eclipse, an analysis division of Platts, shows that Japan is expected to need US LNG to meet its winter peak demand but is well supplied for the summer and shoulder seasons, which could lead to a build in stocks.In addition to US volumes, Platts calculations show that between 2015 and 2017, Japanese utilities have contracted to buy nearly 20 million mt/year of Australian LNG, almost doubling the current offtake.
Under the terms of these more traditional contracts, prices are indexed to the Japanese Customs Cleared crude oil price, with the gas subject to take-or-pay and nondiversion clauses.In contrast, the 17 million mt/year of LNG contracted from US projects under the tolling model by Japanese utilities and traders have no destination or take-or-pay clauses.
This enables offtakers to either resell or exercise the option not to lift, provided the buyer is prepared to forfeit the $3-3.50/MMBtu tolling fee, viewed as a sunk cost."If they [Japanese buyers and traders] have surplus, they are willing to sell," Toyoda said. "Buyers are moving to become traders and if it is profitable, why not?"
Japan Lng Import
Hunt for buyers
With crude oil prices under pressure and the LNG market expected to reach a more balanced position between 2015 and 2017, the question is who will buy any potential oversupply and at what price."If the price of LNG comes down, demand will go up," Toyoda said."They [the Japanese buyers and traders] think to resell to other Asian countries where demand is increasing. Many countries would like to switch from coal to gas, but the problem remains the Asian premium price. This cannot be entirely eliminated because we have to add $6/MMBtu at least to the Henry Hub price [to account for tolling and transportation]; but the present price is still too high and it should be minimized," he said, meaning that the price gap between the regions should be narrower.
Front month Henry Hub prices for December are around $4.20/MMBtu.An addition of $6/MMBtu would give a landed price into Japan of around $10.20/MMBtu against term contracts of around $16/MMBtu based on current oil prices.Japanese companies are also looking to Europe to place US LNG. Should more LNG make its way to Europe - where local participants also have contracts for US LNG - regional prices were likely to fall, according to an analysis from Eclipse.
Japan Lng Price
Crude oil recently touching four-year lows has put pressure on term contract prices, and the question is whether the 115% Henry Hub plus $3-3.50/MMBtu tolling model remains attractive or even economically viable, all the year round.US LNG may become a seasonal offtake option for Japanese utilities, who might exercise their option not to lift volumes during certain seasons.At a tolling cost of $3/MMBtu, offtakers of US LNG would need to pay $10.5 million to load a standard-sized cargo of 3.5 million MMBtu.

Saudi Aramco cuts December propane to $550/T, down $60 from the November Level
State-run Saudi Aramco has cut its December contract price for propane to $550 a tonne, down $60 from the November level, an industry source said on Monday. Butane prices for December 2014 were also cut to $570 a tonne, down $30 from November level of $600. The prices provide a benchmark against which Middle East sales of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) to Asia are priced. Following is a table of Saudi Aramco's contract prices of propane and butane per tonne in U.S. dollars.

Uranium prices continue huge rally as Japan Moves to Restart Reactors
Uranium's 18 percent rally makes it the best-performing energy commodity this year as the atomic fuel extends gains in a bull market amid signs that Japan will restart idled nuclear plants and China's demand may strengthen.
The fuel is poised for its first annual advance since 2010, beating returns from power-station coal and all five energy securities in the Bloomberg Commodity Index. (BCOM) Prices jumped as much as 57 percent from a low of $28 a pound in May, providing a boost to producers from Australia to Kazakhstan. They were at $40.50 yesterday, according to data from Ux Consulting Co., which provides research on the nuclear industry.
Uranium price
"There are a few key factors that are making traders believe that prices should be going up, this includes the good news of Japanese reactor restarts," Jonathan Hinze, a senior vice president at Ux in Roswell, Georgia, said by e-mail. "Expectations that demand will grow even stronger due to China" have also helped to underpin gains, he said.
Japan, once Asia's biggest atomic power producer, may resume its first reactors early next year after Kyushu Electric Power Co. received local approval for its Sendai power station. China, the world's largest energy consumer, is seeking to increase its nuclear generation capacity threefold by 2020 and will build the most reactors globally during the next three years, according to the World Nuclear Association in London.
The Bloomberg Commodity Index slipped 6 percent this year, while benchmark Asian coal prices are down 26 percent and U.S natural gas rose 5 percent. Brent crude in London slumped 30 percent, West Texas Intermediate slid 25 percent and U.S. gasoline tumbled 27 percent.
Uranium have averaged $33.13 this year after rising to $44 on Nov. 17, the highest since December 2012.
Uranium reserves by country
Fukushima Meltdown
The nuclear fuel dropped as much as 62 percent after the meltdown at Tokyo Electric Power Co.'s Fukushima Dai-Ichi plant in March 2011 and subsequent closing of Japan's atomic fleet. Uranium prices were at the highest in almost three years a month before the disaster, trading at $73 a pound.
"The door to the pre-Fukushima period is at long last starting to open," said John Borshoff, the chief executive officer of producer Paladin Energy Ltd., which halted its Kayelekera mine in Malawi as prices fell. Uranium and nuclear energy is on a "more positive trajectory with a lot of upside to come," he said on a conference call Nov. 13.
Kyushu Electric received permission for the restart of its Sendai reactors from the Kagoshima prefecture governor this month. Japan has been without nuclear power since September 2013 when the last of its operable commercial fleet of 48 was idled, leaving the country reliant on other fuels such as coal and liquefied natural gas for its electricity needs.
Price Correction
"There's still supply in the market that has to get taken up," Tim Gitzel, the chief executive officer of Cameco Corp., Canada's largest uranium producer, said during an investor presentation on Nov. 24. "We're really still waiting for a return to long-term contracting."
The price rally has run too far, too fast and there will be a short-term correction, Macquarie Bank Ltd. analysts including Colin Hamilton, the London-based head of commodities research, said in a Nov. 20 note. Re-balancing of the market will be a longer-term process, the bank said.
There's a uranium surplus of about 5 million pounds, which is forecast to expand to 20 million by 2018, according to estimates from RBC Capital Markets.
"Restarts are good for sentiment but ultimately the impact on supply and demand is not particularly material given the level of inventory," Chris Drew, an analyst at RBC in Sydney, said by phone on Nov. 21. "Given that we're heavily reliant on that Chinese reactor build to grow that demand over the medium term, the risks are construction may take longer than expected. That could extend the period we remain in oversupply."
Asia Demand
Global nuclear power capacity is increasing steadily, with more than 60 reactors under construction in 13 countries, the most in Asia, according to the World Nuclear Association. Almost half of those are being built in China, with 26 units being developed, the association said on its website.
"The last two years, utility fuel buyers have been sitting on the sidelines because they've been very worried that Japan's 100 million-pound inventory will be released into the market," said Alexander Molyneux, the chairman of Azarga Uranium Corp., a miner that expects to start output at its Dewey Burdock project in the U.S. by the end of 2016.
U.S. and European utilities may now look to build their stockpiles, Molyneux said in Singapore yesterday.
Uranium may average $39 a pound next year, according to the median estimate in a Bloomberg News survey of seven analysts. Forecasts ranged from $35 to $43.
"The spot uranium price has jumped significantly over the past few weeks," Hinze from Ux said on Nov. 20. "It appears most likely that spot price will remain above $40 for the remainder of this year unless we have some significant new development."

Leipzig booksellers, Reinicke-and Heinrichs, had concerted measures with the publisher to prepare a French translation in Leipzig, to be conveyed from thence to France, to anticipate the one made at Paris. But in Eng, land the competition was still greater. Three booksellers procured at the fame time, by the quickest conveyance, copies of the original from Germany, and began trandations. The speculative Phillips conimenced an instantaneous correspondence with the publisher, from whom he procured (at a very heayy expence) the original in theets, and placed it in the hands of six different translators in London, in order to anticipate the other publithers of the fame work, who were likewise using every effort to trans, plant this monstrous exotic production. The bookseller Geisweiller, had already associated with some others for its immediate publication; and his translation, which the ingenious Mr. William Tooke, allifted by Mr. Hinkely, had compleated with incredible activity, app ared at the same time with that of Philips's. A third, undertaken by Stockdale, did not appear till afterwards. The gazettes and journals now teemed with extracts from this tale. Mr. Tilefius at Leipzig gave an abridgement, containing about four sheets of the work he had corrected for the press,
" In the French papers defences appeared of the poor Vaillant, whom the pretended wandering jojner attempted to detect of falfehood in his representations. " In the St. James's Chronicle, and other London papers, whole
pages were filled with extracts from the English tranflation. But now thé iniquity was ripe for detection, and every thing confpired to bring the matter to light. About the same period when the rumour of this work had fo. generally gone abroad, there appeared in the Literary Magazine of Gottin, gen, and in the Universal Literary Gazette of Jena, by the learned critics Meiners and Paulus, evident testimonies of the fabrication by Damberger; in which the deception is unmasked by an exposure of a thousand glaring inconsistencies and gross mistakes, both in the fciences of geography and natural history. The author and publisher were both called upon to defend themselves.
" The publisher, Martini, at Leipzig, having entertained some fufpicion of D'amberger a short time after their engagement, which increased with a farther acquaintance, began to compare the MS. of Joseph Schrodter edited by Wolf, and Zacharias Taurinius published by Jacobaer, with that of D'amberger in his poffeffion; whence he was convinced, that the shoemaker Schrodter, the printer Taurinius, and the joiner D'amberger, were only one person with three different names,
• He fummons him before a magistrate. The wretch appears; and, without any appearance of confusion,
confesses that he is the identical Taurinius, as well as his reason for taking the name of D'amberger; but pofitively denies that he was the author of the work which was published under the name of Schrodter; alledging that he had only aslifted Schrodter, who resided at Hamburgh, as an amanuensis, because that man was unable to write. With regard to the travels, he maintained his own perfect rcetľude, as they contained authentic materials, with this difference only, that not D'amberger, birt he himself had undertaken the wonderful voyage to Africa before mentioned. He alledged as the reason for assuming this name, that he had travelled in the caravan of a man so called through Barbary to Morocco. That the real D'amberger had been likewise at the Cape, and in the same yeffel in which he, Taurinius, had gone, but afterwards
proceeded to Holland, where he had again entered into the Dutch service, and now was probably settled at Surinam. Taurinius had given the fame deposition to two literary gentlemen of Weimar, named Bertuch and Bottiger, whom he had formerly promised, by a public declaration, to visit, in order to justify himself to them; which justification, together with his mode of living, they had published in the Literary Magazine of Jena. But in this deposition the most glaring coutradiétions are discoverable, by which the whole scheme of inposture is untolded."
The London booksellers, who published the English translation of these pretended travels, we think, are very juitly punilhed for the ridiculous anxiety which they display for the speedy importation of all the fustian and ribaldry of the German School, which tend not only to corupt the taste but to deprave the manners of our country.
The same man is íaid, by the author of the pamphlet, to be the fabricator of all the three works above-mentioned, though published under different
We heartily with that no greater impofitions were practised by the German Literati; and that none of them were more guilty than this wretched thuemaker, who was probably stimulated to conimit the forgery by the calls of hunger.
This little tract is evidently the production of a foreigner;-it contains only nineteen pages, widely printed, including two title pages, and two blank pages, and is charged one shilling; by which we suppose that Mr. Geisweiler is willing to indemnify himself for the loss which he must have sustained by publishing one of the translations of Ir.

REVIEWERS REVIEWED.
The Sin of Schism; a Sermor. By Edward Pearson, B, D,
TO THE EDITOR. SIR, TION EXTENUATION anel cardous tread as often on the lips of the Critical Revieweis, as caution and politeness on those of the Menthly. But that these vir
tạes are only preached, and not practised, by this society of Gentlemen, is abundantly evident from their review of Mr. Pearson's sermon on the Sin of Schism. As it is but short, I beg you to favour your readers with a sight of it, from their Monthly Catalogue for January, 1801, p. 105. It runs
thus :
very judicious well-timed discourse on a sin very prevalent in these days. It arises in part from a negligence in the performance of the duties of the church by its ministers—in part from a want of union in ihe church in the meaning of its articles; but in a much greater degree from the want of a due consideration of the nature of the Christian Church, from the zeal of schismatical preachers, and from that fanaticism to which the vulgar are prone, when sufficient care is not taken of their spiritual instruction. It is in vain that the preacher points out the wretchedness of schism, unless he is in season and out of season, instructing his fiock in evangelical truth. If he be remiss, or if he dole out to them the meagre scraps of heathen morality, the poor will run to the less learned, but more earnest instructors to those who speak to the heart, in terms intelligible to themselves, though not satisfactory to the refinement of taste or the acumen of philosophy !!
Such critiques, Sir, demand your particular attention, as a political and literary Censor; and therefore I make no apology for addressing to you a few observations on the subject. Be it understood, that I know as little of Mr. Pearson as of Mr. Pybus; but if the former be author of a judicious tuelltimes discourse, I think it was the duty of the Critical Reviewers to have treated their readers with a specimen of its excellence, instead of a vague philippic on the church. To step aside, and leave the direct path, in order to insult a body of men long unpopular with Critical Reviewers, by no Incans evinces that they are a society of Genilemen. To impute to the Church that sin, of which Mr. Pearson's juilicious discourse had irresistibly convinced them that they themselves were guilty as dissenters, is one of the admirable evasions of whoremaster man, who, when conscience tlies in his face, can prove himself to have been guilty by spherical * predominance. Whatever mischief arises, Mr. Editor, whatever wickedness prevails, it is no longer to be ascribed to the perverseness and depravity of haman nature. We are so enlightened and perfected by the new philosophy, and the film of prejudice so happily removed from our eyes, that we can see plainly, that the root of all evil is the existence of the regular clergy. Yes, Sir; and Tenterden Church steeple, as Bishop Latimer observes, must indubitably be the cause of Godwin Sands.
One great reason of the increased confidence with which the Monthly and Critical Reviervers have of late reviled the Church, springs from the modest and humble, but unguarded manner, in which the authors of the Report from' the Clergy of a District in the Diocese of Lincoln, spoke of their own merits as clergymen. " Before we close our enumeration (say they) of the causes to which the decay of Christian piety and practical religion may be ascribed, we desire, under an awful sense of the importance and difficulty of that sacred trust with which we are charged, to declare our humble conviction and our unfeigned sorrow, that the frailties, onissions, and imperfections of the best of us, have contributed in no inconsiderable proportion to lessen the utiltiy of our establishment." I am perfectly aware, Sir, that when we havex.onc all those things which are commanded us, it is our duty to say, that we are un

profitable servatrs. But I doubt much, if such a confession ought to be made from the house-top; it should be whispered from one apostle to another; it should be the private and internal suggestion of a conscience anxious to do its duty, and fearful of being checked in its laudable career by ebullitions of vanity and self-approbation. Were I to advise with the Christian minister respecting his public conduct, I should certainly say, sume superbiam quæsitam meritis; let no man despise thee. It was no proof of pride in Samuel, publicly to testify and assert his integrity. A church which openly proclaims' itself, in times like these, to be without merit, becomes felo-de se, by provoking and inviting its enemies to violence. In how insidious and disingenuous a manner the Monthly Reviewers have availed themselves of such a convenient handle, may be seen by p. 91 of their Review for January, 1801: how artfully the Critical Gentlemen have applied it, is manifest from the critique before us.
The first insinuation in this elegant morsel, which savours strongly of candour, is, that schism arises in part from a negligence in the performance of the duties of the church by its ministers. The author perhaps intended to be equivocal; and has therefore left us to guess at his meaning: whether he alludes to nonresidence, or the irreverend manner in which the duties of the reading-desk and pulpit may be sometimes discharged, I know not. Let his allusion be to either, we find a strange reason for schism in both senses. Is the service of the church the less orthodox, because irreverently performed? Are her doctrines less sound and pure, because preached by a curate in the absence of his rector? A justification of schism, full as reasonable, was arged by Mr. Middleton, when he ascribed it to taking tythes in kind.
Insinuation the second, is want of union in the church on the meaning of its drticles. Here is strange confusion, Mr. Editor. The want of inion com: plained of, is manifestly on the side of those who have departed from the church. They who still remain with the church, acknowledge, by the very act of adherence, that all is right. They who do not adhere to the church, who do not speak the same things as the church, who are not perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment, are not of the church; they are schismatics, strictly and truly, according to the Apostle's own definition in i Cor. 1, 10. I recommend, Sir, to the Critical Reviewers, an amicable interview with their Monthly brethren, that they may, by uniting the wisdom of their councils, determine what is the church, and what is not. The latter, for an obvious purpose, at p. 90; of their last number, endeavour to persuade the Mothodists that they are not of the church, but ought to regard themselves as dissenters. The former manifestly confound seceders with the church itself, in order to support an unmannerly assumption, that schism originates in the disunion of the church as to the meaning of its own articles,
*The critique on Mr. Pearson, in the next sentence, kindly condescends to bestow a share of the blame of schism on those who leave the church. It ascribes to them want of due consideration of the nature of the family of Christ, intemperate zeal and fanaticism; but instantly recoils, and imputes the propensity of the vulgar to such extravagance, not to its true cause, the obsti• nacy, credulity, and fallibility of the mind of man, but to the regular clergy. The case of all, it seems, is, that sufficient care is not taken of their spiritual instruction. If we ask how Critical Reviewers can know that suficient care is non' taken, they will not be able to inform us that they know it practically by attending our places of Worship, but they will refer us to the Lincolnshire Clerical Report. Supposing the modesty of that report had not rendered it a
document somewhat fallacious on this head, will writers of extenuation and candour maintain, that it is possible to conduct the human mind to whatever conviction we please by spiritual instruction? If a single preacher, if a whole established church, be rendered unpopular by scandal and calumny, will not the most saving truths be uttered by their lips in vain? Will not their words fall into the vulgar ear, as profiless as water in a sieve? Again, if a preacher, however meanly qualified, will stoop to base means in order to render himself popular; if he will flatter the sins of his audience, rave and foam in presence of his hearers, and impute his extacies to the Holy Spirit, is it not plain that such a man may instil the most pernicious doctrines with effect, and lead the credulous rabble into whatever enormities he pleases? The Apostles, themselves, with all their supernatural endowments, were not always able to stem the torrent of popular prejudice and phrenzy. What care then, what regard to spiritual instruction can enable their successors to quiet the zeal of schismatical preachers, and the fanaticism of their followers? To say that their want of care is the cause of such zeal and fanaticism, is as absurd as to impute the horrid catastrophes of Paris to the Court of London. The vulgar mind alone can be duped into a belief, that there is the shadow of a connection between the one and the other. Oh! the liberality of Critical Reviewers!
A personal reflection is cast on Mr. Pearson, when his reviewer says, that it is in vain for the preacher to point out the wickedness of schism, unless he is at all seasons instructing his flock in evangelical truth. If the critic does not mean to insinuate that Mr. P. is personally culpable, he aims a blow at the church through the sides of Mr. P. for which both may thank him as a striking proof of forbearance, politeness, candour, and Christian charity.
This extremely liberal critic proceeds to insinuate, under the convenient mask of hypothesis, that Mr. P. or the church, or both, are remiss, and dole out to their congregations, the meagre scrasis of heathen morality; and that to this cause we are to look, for one of the reasons why the poor run to the less Learned, but more earnest instructor. I doubt not, Sir, that this hostile separatist could produce as many causes for schism, as we have lately heard for scarcity, and that he is sophist enough to fasten them all upon the church. I believe, on the contrary, that the church is as little to be charged with producing schism, as scarcity. That she does not contribute to occasion the former by the means here alledged, that is, by doling out (most liberal expression !) the meagre scraps (delightful candour!) of heathen morality, I could prove by appealing to the voice of her pulpits; but the critic manifestly never enters a church ; I must therefore be content to refer him to sermons recently published by the regular clergy, of which, since they are not despised and overlooked by Anti-Jacobins and British Critics, so contemptuously as by Monthly and Critical Reviewers, I am able to produce two creditable instances which entirely defeat his assertion. Let it be remembered, that the clergy are accused of not instructing their flocks in evangelical truth ; that is, in the trite phrase, they do not preach the gospel. Such an accusation is at least implied, and lies concealed among the meagre scraps of this designing critic.
At page 21, of the British Critic, for January, 1801, the Reviewer will find Sermons preached to a Country Congregation, by IPilliam Gilpin, Prebendary of Salisa bury and Vicar of Boldre. Here then we have an admirable opportunity of judging what sort of doctrine the church preaches, in these days of healien morality, to the poor. What then, let us inquire, are the subjects discoursed upon by this Vicar of the Church? Sermon I. On the gradual progress of


Spotify celebrated its 10th anniversary recently and the music streaming giant decided to crunch some numbers on the most popular artists and songs on its platform. To no surprise, Drake came out on top as its most-streamed artist of all time, beating out Eminem, The Weeknd, Rihanna and Ed Sheeran. BUT, Sheeran and Rihanna both have All Time titles of their own.
Drake holds the record for the largest single-week ever for an album in the United States with Scorpion, which had 745.9 million on-demand audio streams for its tracks earlier this year. And according to Billboard, last year the Toronto native was awarded the IFPI Global Recording Artist of 2016, which recognizes the top artist across physical sales, downloads, and streaming.
Ed Sheeran topped the list for Spotify's most-streamed songs of all time for "Shape Of You", charting above Drake's "One Dance". Sheeran also has the title for most-streamed album of all time, his 2017 album "Divide" named Spotify's most-streamed album globally, ahead of Justin Bieber's "Purpose" and Drake's "Views".
Rihanna still reigns supreme, of course, as she holds the title for most-streamed female artist globally ahead of Ariana Grande, Sia, Beyoncé, and Nicki Minaj.
As for Spotify itself, the streaming site reports 180 million monthly active listeners across the 65 territories where it operates. That's an increase from an active user base of about 140 million as of June 2018.
The Spotify All-Time Top 10 Lists are here.

Aviation Stack Exchange is a question and answer site for aircraft pilots, mechanics, and enthusiasts. It only takes a minute to sign up.
How do aircraft stall warning systems handle (or not) asymmetric-stall situations?
Most, if not all, new airplanes are required to have stall warning systems to (as the name should make clear) provide the pilots with a warning when the airplane is about to stall. Most stall warning systems work not by directly detecting the rapid increase in airflow separation near the stall point, but, rather, by measuring the airplane's angle of attack and giving an alarm if it is greater than some threshold value. However, as the attack angle at which the wing stalls can vary by a great deal, these older stall warning systems have multiple thresholds; for instance, a particular system might sound an alarm at 15º in a clean configuration, but lower the threshold to just 5º if icing is detected (as icing promotes airflow separation, and, thus, lowers the wing's stall angle), while waiting until 30º if the slats are extended (as leading-edge devices, such as slats, delay airflow separation, and, thus, increase the allowable attack angle).
With all this in mind, how do stall warning systems handle situations in which one wing is stalled, or close to stalling, but the other wing is not?
I can think of a number of scenarios under which this might occur:
Category 1 - The two wings have different stall angles, such as could result from...
Scenario 1: ...asymmetrical icing, or damage to the leading edge of one wing but not the other, which would increase the roughness of the damaged or more-iced wing, thereby increasing the tendency for the airflow to separate from said wing, and, therefore, cause it to stall at a lower attack angle than the undamaged or less-iced wing.
Scenario 2: ...asymmetrical leading-edge device (non)deployment, such as from failure during takeoff of the hydraulic system powering one wing's outboard slats, resulting in the retraction of said slats, which would decrease the stall angle of the wing with non-extended or less-extended leading-edge devices.
Category 2 - The two wings are at different angles of attack relative to the airflow around them, such as could result from...
Scenario 3: ...violent, fine-grained turbulence, which could result in the airspeed of one wing being considerably lower than that of the other wing, thereby causing the horizontal component of the airflow around that wing to be considerably decreased while leaving the vertical component of said airflow unchanged, thus resulting in the lower-airspeed wing encountering the oncoming air at a much steeper angle than the higher-airspeed wing, and, as a result, possibly causing the lower-airspeed wing, but not the higher-airspeed wing, to exceed its stall angle; for instance, if an airplane is flying at an indicated airspeed 30 knots above its stall speed, and is hit by an asymmetric gust that causes the left wing to experience a 45-knot tailwind while the right wing sees a 15-knot headwind, the left wing will be 15 knots below its stall speed at the same time as the right wing is 45 knots above its stall speed, and, therefore, the left wing will stall, but not the right wing.
Scenario 4: ...a rapid yaw to one side, possibly as a result of overenthusiastic piloting or a mechanical failure, causing the airspeed of one wing to increase and that of the other to decrease, possibly causing an asymmetric stall via the same mechanism as in scenario 3 (for instance, a sudden rudder hardover would produce an extremely high yaw rate, and, thus, airspeed differential, before the pilot(s) had time to react, which could easily bring one wing, but not the other, below its stall speed).

They don't. The Stall Protection Computer only considers overall body AOA as measured by vanes on the left and right side of the nose. AOA is just one bit of data, and the SPC also is measuring G loads, yaw rates, speed wise acceleration or deceleration, pitch rates, etc. and also getting inputs on flap/slat position etc to allow for all those effects. It computes a solution for presenting the barber pole on the speed tape, and the shaker and pusher (if installed) firing points based on the body AOA and all those other factors, not local wing AOA.
If you yaw a swept wing jet really hard with rudder, it will roll on its back, stalled or not, just from the asymmetric lift with the sweep (full aileron may or may not be enough to counteract it - you learn this the first time you do a V1 cut in training).
In any case you don't normally touch the rudder pedals on a jet except during takeoff and landing or if an engine quits. Yawing the plane also makes the vanes show radically different angles because of the changes in airflow around the nose when skidding or slipping, and you will get some kind of mismatch related error message.
On a jet with heated leading edges, if you had ice on the wings, the SPC will be fooled and can't account for this, and the wing will stall at a lower AOA than the SPC's computed solution and the airplane may depart when the barber pole still shows good margin, and before the shaker goes off. A nasty surprise. Ice on one wing and not the other just means when it goes, before shaker, it will roll really hard.

$\begingroup$ This may be right on some aircraft but most light aircraft there is no stall protection computer, rather much simpler systems. $\endgroup$

The pilot handles asymmetric stalls, this is what a pilot is there for. Along with all of the other corner cases that glorified calculators just can't be relied on to handle. A pilot with adequate manual flying practice can easily detect abnormalities in the response of control inputs and (in the USA)they are actively trained for these different configurations and conditions. I can't count the number of stalls and spins I have purposefully initiated during my training, in many different configurations. (flaps no flaps, level, in turns, full thrust, idle thrust, different altitudes) The typical student private pilot will have stalled in at least two configurations by the the third hour of training as part of the curriculum.
A spin is just an asymmetric stall allowed time to fully develop. Suspected icing calls for different configuration and speed range, generally includes reduced angle of attack. The selection of the icing AOA is a pilot decision, in small aircraft this is done simply with different flap settings and minimum speeds, in advanced aircraft the pilot must set the stall calculator its icing mode. In any case pilots have been handling this for 100 years.

Having marked Romes arrival with blood, Aulus sends envoys to parlay with the tribes of Britannia, while also looking to learn more about the Druids.
Aulus is reborn, but his destiny remains unclear. Cait is able to locate her father, but she cant free him from the Roman camp alone.

Who Pays to Electrify the City?
The electric rate-setting deal being finalized between state lawmakers and electric companies Ameren and ComEd reminds me that the City of DeKalb pays ComEd nothing for electricity in the buildings it owns.
The city apparently does pay for street lighting. The link takes you to the record of a city meeting where cutting electric costs at intersections was discussed. But I ask you: What is the incentive to conserve electricity at City Hall? If there are freebies and waste, don't the rest of us end up paying higher rates? The city gives us residential users a conservation incentive through taxing us for our electricity consumption. My share this month was $5.88.
Another advantage the city has is the ability to chose among electricity suppliers (ComEd remains the delivery company).

Q: What is the partition function to partition a number into "same sub-parts"? All:
What is the partition function to partition a number into "same sub-parts" ?
For "same sub-parts", we mean that a partition function which gives a partition such as:
6 = 2 + 2 + 2 =3 + 3 = 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1
I know it is not difficult to the number of partition directly for this question, but I still want to get a partition function for this.
Can anyone help ?

A: You get one such partition for each divisor of $n$: if $d$ is a divisor of $n$, you can partition $n$ into $\frac{n}d$ summands $d$. Moreover, every partition of $n$ into equal parts is of this form The number of such partitions is therefore the number of divisors of $n$; this is sometimes denoted by $\tau(n)$, but I think that $\sigma_0(n)$ may be more common, as in this Wikipedia article. This function has the following properties:

*

*$\sigma_0(p)=2$ for primes $p$;

*$\sigma_0(p^k)=k+1$ for primes $p$;

*if $n$ has the prime factorization $n=p_1^{r_1}p_2^{r_2}\ldots p_m^{r_m}$, then $\sigma_0(n)=\prod_{k=1}^m(r_k+1)$.

The third point follows from the fact that $\sigma_0$ is a multiplicative function: $\sigma_0(mn)=\sigma_0(m)\sigma_0(n)$ if $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime.
The values of $\sigma_0(n)$ form the sequence OEIS A000005, and you can find much information at that link. There is no nice closed form, but there are some interesting formulas nonetheless, e.g.,
$$\sigma_0(n)=n-\sum_{k=1}^n\left(\left\lceil\frac{n}k\right\rceil-\left\lfloor\frac{n}k\right\rfloor\right)\;.$$

Digestive Health Institute: Did you know these not-so-sweet truths about sugar?
I am not a fan of fad theories. Neither do I believe in being alarmist. However, a raging current debate that I would like to participate in is the one about sugar.
The study notes that the percentage of daily calories from added sugar grew from 15.7% in 1988-1994 to 16.8 percent in 1999 to 2004 but then fell back to 14.9 percent in 2005-2010. The report finds a very strong relation between the amount of added sugar in a person's diet and their cardiovascular mortality.
Its publication has catalysed the always-noisy conversation about sugar, and the role it plays in our daily diet.
Let's talk facts, and then I trust you to gauge the amount of sugar in your daily diet, before you decide to either go cold turkey, or continue as you have before.
Starting with a simple example, as we head into summer – a can of an aerated drink contains 8 spoons of sugar. This is also the amount of sugar found in a serving of low-fat breakfast cereals. (Take a look at this page, for more information.) As an aside, this is why I say that buying into the low-fat/low-sugar processed foods deal is not really wise. Sugars can be hidden, and the consequences are the same within your body.
Quickly, let us understand what are the kinds of sugar, and which ones are the most harmful.
Glucose - A simple sugar found in whole grains and vegetables. It stimulates the pancreas, which causes secretion of insulin, the hormone that regulates glucose levels. A very important source of energy, glucose produces hunger-suppressing leptin. If you are always on the move, and need to stay on top of things, glucose is key.
Fructose - This is the sugar in fruit, which is converted into energy by the liver, and is broken down into glucose and lactate. It is great to get your fructose from fruit because it is combined with fibre and nutrients in that natural state. Which is why eating a fruit before a workout is a great idea.
High fructose corn sugar (HFCS) - With equal amounts of sucrose and fructose, and made from corn starch, HFCS is the most dangerous form of sugar. It is very addictive, and completely devoid of nutritional value. If you read the labels on processed foods, you will find they contain HFCS.
When people say things like, "My sweet tooth is addictive", or "I really need a box of cupcakes when I am depressed", they are expressing a very basic bodily need for a source of energy. My advice would be, when you crave that, reach for fruit, and not a jar of cookies.
It is difficult to eliminate all forms of sugar from your diet and, in my opinion, rather extremist. I think that if you control the consumption of sugar – hidden or not – in a conscious, daily manner, you can treat yourself to the occasional moderately-sized scoop of ice-cream, or piece of barfi, or bowl of halwa.
Balance, and moderation are, as always, the keywords to good health.

'Dreamland' review: The science of sleep
One in four U.S. adults has prescription sleeping pills in the medicine chest according to "Dreamland," a new book about sleep/ Credit: Getty
By DANIEL AKST daniel.akst@newsday.com Updated August 16, 2012 3:25 PM
DREAMLAND: Adventures in the Strange Science of Sleep, by David K. Randall. W.W. Norton & Co., 290 pp., $25.95.
It's no wonder sleep is a problem for millions of Americans. We're overweight, lead sedentary lives, spend evenings bathed in artificial light and share beds with other people, all of which impede shuteye. The massive baby-boomer generation is aging, and humans probably evolved to sleep more lightly as we get older. Such are the reasons an astonishing one in four U.S. adults has prescription sleeping pills in the medicine chest, even though studies show that "drugs like Ambien and Lunesta offer no significant improvement" in the quality or quantity of sleep.
We learn all this from David K. Randall's "Dreamland," a modest yet informative work of nonfiction in which a sleepwalker walks us through the subject of sleep. Randall has done a lot of good reporting, writes clearly and makes even the scientific aspects of his subject easily accessible. And he knows what makes lively reading, such as the legal conundrum of people who kill while sleepwalking.
Regrettably, he also seems to feel that every aspect of the topic needs to be embodied in somebody's story. Much of the chapter on snoring, for example, is spent discussing the progenitors of a device for countering sleep apnea. The science of sleep is covered painlessly but a little sparingly. Nor does the author dwell much on sleep in literature and mythology. The result is an enjoyable, edifying book that goes down easy, even if it leaves you wishing that it were a tad more ambitious.
Read an excerpt from 'Dreamland'
The one thing "Dreamland" will not do -- sorry, insomniacs -- is put you to sleep. The topic and the treatment are both too interesting. Take dreams, for instance. Randall reports that Freud was all wrong; science shows that rather than brimming with hidden meanings and sexual longings, dreams are straightforward, even pedestrian, if usually unpleasant -- rehearsals, perhaps, for bad things we might face while awake. We also learn that, in the Middle Ages and early Renaissance, people spent more time in bed, but sleep was segmented into "first sleep" and "second sleep," with perhaps an hour of relaxed wakefulness in between -- an hour considered convenient for lovemaking.
Randall says that humans evolved for an environment quite different from the one we live in today. The advent of electric lighting means that people aren't exposed to enough daylight, throwing off their circadian rhythms. Or they drink alcohol at night, which leads to wakefulness in the wee hours. And sleep deprivation can blight your waking hours, making you sadder, dumber and less healthy.
While not a self-help book, "Dreamland" provides good advice on improving sleep. Get ample natural light by day, and some exercise. Avoid bright lights at night (including the glow of computers and iPads), establish a consistent bedtime, use the bedroom only for sleep or sex, and keep the place cool -- between 60 and 66 degrees if you wear pajamas. A tepid shower beats a hot bath before bed and, sadly, sleeping on the same mattress as someone else doesn't help. "Getting a good night's sleep takes work," reports the author. By the end of the book he has a better handle on his somnambulism, as well as the credibility to add: "And that work is worth it."

Once upon a time there was a newly married couple living in the boonies of Bavaria, in a village called Freyung, close to the Czech border. The father, a Nigerian Anglican, was very religious. When their first child was born they were looking for an Anglican Church to have the child baptized. Closest to their home they found the Church of the Ascension in Munich – over three hours away from their home by car – one way. The rector then, the Rev. Ray Bronk baptized the child, but their plea for thinking about offering services in the Northern part of Bavaria was not given much further thought.
When the second child was born again they made their way to Munich to have the child baptized. This time the Rev. Tom Pellaton was rector and when they told him about their need for a service closer to their home there was a certain amount of openness. Three or four times a year the family managed the long distance making the day trip to Munich to attend church – and they kept asking again and again to get a service further North.
It took another about 5 years before their plea – repeatedly brought up at their visits – finally brought a change. In 2003 the first service was held at the Old Catholic house church in Nuremberg, Rankestrasse, in the suburbs of the city. A lay leadership was put in place with Dieter Prager and Dorothee Hahn both coming up monthly from Munich to lead servicse and Sunday School. Occasionally they were accompanied by a priest to celebrate the Eucharist, especially after the arrival of the Rev. Julie Nelson in Munich, the first longer term presence of a priest at the Mission Congregation of Nuremberg as it was called until 2007.
Since the first beginnings the church moved in 2004 to the Lutheran Church Evangelisch St. Jakob in the old center of the city, meeting there once a month for service. It was a great occasion to see the first child of this family, Vanessa Ugho, to be confirmed by Bishop Pierre in 2008 at the Church of St. James the Less. The congregation formed an e.V at the end of 2011, a necessary step. In February 2013 the Rev. Dennis Krumlauf was appointed vicar of St. James along with another mission church, St. Boniface in Augsburg. We were blessed to have Rev. Dennis and his wife Jane with us until May of 2016 when they moved back to the United States.
The Rev. Scott Moore has served as our vicar since the end of 2016, working to strengthen our connections with other churches in Nuremberg as we continue to make ourselves known to the community. We are currently worshiping twice a month in the main church of the Jakobskirche and are excited what the future hold for our congregation!
