UK-based food truck operator The Roadery is bringing to Dubai the most expensive street food in town. A luxurious burger topped with a 24-carat gold leaf, Burg Khalifa.
The burger, named Burg Khalifa, will cost $63 (over Rs. 4200) and feature five Wagyu beef patties.
Motivated by the world's tallest tower and called Burg Khalifa. The burger at a food truck event, which will gather 25 international vendors just outside Burj Khalifa this month.
The mind boggling burger will have five layers of Wagyu beef patty, truffled cheese and seared foie gras – all topped with saffron mayonnaise and blackberry ketchup. Additionally, it presents itself inside an edible 24 carat gold leaf brioche bun.
"With its undisputed reputation for luxury and incredible ability to build almost anything bigger and better than the rest of the world, we couldn't return to Eat The World DXB without something extra special this year," Shearman said. Well, he is living up to his word folks.
"So we're extremely excited to be bringing it over to the food truck event. Moreover, it's going to be one of the most expensive burgers in the region. We promise you'll get more than your money's worth with the premium quality ingredients," Shearman added. Moreover, there will be a limited stock of the unique burger, Burg Khalifa.
Eat The World DXB Food Festival is all set for its 2nd edition to be held from 23rd February to 25th February 2017. Furthermore, American campers vans and ice cream trucks with a variety of culinary ideas will be available at the food festival.
Well, you can gift your girlfriend a trip to Dubai. Instead of gifting a gold ring, why not gift her a gold burger?!
CAUTION: Applicable only for foodie girlfriends!
We may say that food is also revolutionising and Burg Khalifa plays a significant role in this.


You have heard the saying, "You scratch my back, and I'll scratch yours" Well just recently my husband and I had an agreement. He would take blog images for me and I would cook a meal using one of the new kitchen gadgets that he had recently purchased. This may sound easy enough since I really enjoy cooking. My fondest family memories include watching my mother, grandmother and aunts cook a variety of foods. They didn't use gadgets. When I started cooking I discovered through trial and error that few gadgets work according to their advertised claims. Some can actually increase prep time. My husband on the other hand is a die hard self professed KING of kitchen gadgets. Seriously we have more than we need or have space for. If it has been manufactured chances are we own it. So, he mentioned this Ronco Rotisserie Oven… and my eyes just had this involuntary roll. I had to quickly remind my self that we had an agreement and oh by the way he got up at the crack of dawn just to take pictures for my blog. How could I refuse?
I started prepping the food because let's face it, there is nothing worse than food that is beautiful but taste horrible when you bite into it. I injected this bird with marinade, rubbed fresh parsley, garlic and rosemary all over the skin. You can use dried seasoning but I promise you will thank me when you use fresh seasoning.
As the chicken turned on the rotisserie, the aroma filled the house. My husband who would normally be watching football couldn't stay out of the kitchen. He had this self righteous smile (you know like I told you so) as he waited for me to say how awesome this gadget was. I gladly obliged. The chicken was so moist and delicious and don't clutch you chest or call the cardiologist, but I devoured the skin. It was so crispy and flavorful.
I agree with my IG friend, lindacrsn5 (an amazing cook) who called this chicken perfection. So as you are planning your Thanksgiving meal don't overlook this gem, it truly lives up to it's promises.
Seriously!!! No lie My mouth is watering as I read this post and stare at these pictures. Looks amazing, I may have to go purchase a rotisserie too but not before I find a hole to squeeze it into for storing.


Prescott teacher Laura Chabre's 6th grade students enjoy reading some of the new books Chabre purchased with her School Retirees mini grant award. Chabra was able to stretch her budget to add 56 books to her library with the $200 enrichment grant.
WALLA WALLA/COLUMBIA COUNTIES – Area students and teachers are often the pleased recipients of scholarships and mini-grants, also known as enrichment grants, from the Walla Walla-Columbia School Retirees Association.
The main fundraiser for the group is the annual Teddy Bear Tea held each February in Walla Walla. Last month's fundraiser served 341 guests and estimated profits of $3,500 will be used for grants and scholarships.


Time. Who's got any? I know most of us have a problem balancing work, kids, house, chores, activies, etc. What can you do to improve your focus?
Work is work. Play is play.
Don't multitask when you're trying to spend time with your family.
If you have trouble giving time to projects, family, etc. come up with a calendar with the times for each activity spelled out and stick with it.
Do certain chores on certain days and/or times.
Don't answer the phone when you're on a deadline, eating dinner, or at a function.
Look at your emails every morning and don't look at the jokes or junk emails.
Make a to do list each morning before work in order of importance.
Don't go to every after hours event.
Set business hours and don't accept phone calls after that time.
If you can try to do these you may keep some of your sanity!


In the beautiful bay on the Korčula island, just for YOU we have renovated this beautiful stone house, stone beauty of the bay, not only of its quality but the selling price.
Spacious and beautifully decorated living room (the house was reconstructed by famous German architect) with a terrace, from which you will enjoy the green environment, the clear blue sea and the beach right in front of you (15 meters).
Two bedrooms, a bathroom, 2 toilets, a fully equipped modern kitchen waiting for your first lunch. All this together makes the charm and beauty for only 170,000 Euro.


Heat 2 tablespoons butter in a large saucepan over medium heat; swirl to coat. Add leek, thyme, and 1/2 teaspoon salt; sauté 8 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add 3 cups water, chicken broth, and wild rice; cover. Increase heat to high; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer 30 minutes. Stir in brown rice; cover and simmer 30 minutes. Remove from heat.
Heat remaining 2 tablespoons butter over high heat in a large skillet; swirl to coat. Add turnip, celery, carrot, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt; saute 1 minute. Reduce heat to medium; cook 4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat.
Combine rice mixture, turnip mixture, pecans, cherries, and onions in a large bowl. Spoon stuffing into a 13 x 9-inch glass or ceramic baking dish. Cover with foil; bake at 400° for 20 minutes or until liquid is absorbed. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
I tested this out pre-Thanksgiving this year. While we thought it was very good (we served with grilled chicken tonight) the family cannot get past a rice stuffing - so vetoed. But don't let that stop you from trying it. I love all the flavors in this and it feeds a crowd! Easy to put together ahead and then bake to heat before serving. I will definitely make this again.
This recipe has potential, but really needs something to make it great. I served it with roast goose for Christmas dinner and the feedback was pretty ho-hum. Not bad, but not the kind of wildly delicious side dish for your holiday bird. At this time, it is really just a fancy rice pilaf and nothing more. It is worth working with, and I will be doing some tweaking and testing during the coming year to see if it can be brought up to the standard required of a first rate holiday recipe that is worthy of a once a year treat. The first thing I plan to do is lower the porportion of rice to veggies to make it a more low carb choice. I might even change the grain to wild rice and quinoa. Next, I will add some kind of sausage to the mix to increase the protien content of the dish. We usually roast a goose for Christmas, and they don't really have much meat. I also think it could use more fruit, like pears or oranges. Will post again next year to report on the progress.
I tested this recipe in anticipation of the coming holidays. The favors were clean and healthy, but it needed salt and spice (and maybe gravy). I used cherry infused craisins (dried cranberries) because I couldn't find dried cherries, and added more fresh thyme, to its benefit. However, it was more like a nice rice side-dish than a stuffing. Although I served it with marinated turkey tenderloin and mashed sweet potato, I will be going with a traditional cornbread stuffing for Thanksgiving. Tasty, but not for my Thanksgiving dinner.

Etcetera 01
'"Etcetera!" – what kind of name is that?' I can just hear dozens of you saying right now. If that's your reaction, let me explain. Naming a new magazine is a bit like naming a new baby: parents don't usually get a chance to see what it looks like before they have to take the plunge and parents who do wait to see the little one in the flesh often find the naming process even more difficult. 'But it just doesn't look like a "Kevin"!' ... more inside

We all leave a mark. Whether we like it or not, whether we mean to or not – it's part of the human condition. You can't do so much as pick up a wineglass without making a unique and intricately sculpted fingerprint. And, as devotees of CSI know and some criminals find out too late, we recklessly leave bits of our DNA lying about all over the place… …more inside
Rather a slim edition this, I know. If it were a drink, it would be called Etcetera Lite or some such nonsense. But don't be fooled into thinking that we've nothin to report. Apologies, in fact, to all those who have recently sent us articles – they will be appearing in a bumper edition in October. …more inside
Normally, I like meeting people. It's especially rewarding talking to those whom I taught – often years ago – and catching up on what's happened in the intervening years.
Winter/Spring 2008
This morning there's a sense of excitement in the air, brought on by more than just a touch of spring sunshine. As I write, I can hear the sounds of distant workmen feverishly hammering home a few final touches. People are packing in nearby rooms. In their imaginations, children have already transported themselves into their new home. …more inside
There's an air of excitement in the basement. We stand on the brink of something new. It's like that memorable moment when Mr Mole sniffs daylight for the first time. For two and half years, the grandly entitled 'External Relations office' has actually been a cupboard - admittedly a fairly large cupboard - deep down in the bowels of the main building at Kelvinbridge.... more inside
I never cease to be amazed at former pupils of The Glasgow Academy. There is hardly an area of human endeavour in which they have not made a significant impact. They are an incredible bunch - although 'bunch' is probably not the preferred collective noun for Academicals! …more inside
In December, I was fortunate to attend the launch of Professor Colin Kidd's latest book Union and Unionisms - Political Thought in Scotland, 1500-2000 at Glasgow University's History Department. As one might have expected, it was an occasion that attracted many of the academic historians who have influenced or been influenced in their turn by Professor Kidd's thinking. …more inside

In February of this year a small committee led by the redoubtable Miss Betty Henderson got together to arrange what many assumed would turn out to be a coffee morning. Eight months - and a huge amount of work - later, 420 'girls' met at the Grosvenor Hilton on Saturday 24 October for the Westbourne Grand Reunion. The evening was a great success, as you can tell from letters like the one below: …more inside
The External Relations office at Glasgow Academy first saw the light of day four years ago. Actually, to suggest that it 'saw the light of day' is something of an exaggeration given that its original location was adjacent to the janitors' 'dunny' in the basement of the Main Building – a place which would be in perpetual gloom were it not for the odd electric light bulb. … more inside
One of the most satisfying jobs we do in the External Relations office is reconnecting people. Sometimes we 'reconnect' people with their past when they come to visit the school. It's not unusual for FPs to revisit Glasgow Academy after an absence of 50, 60 or even 70 years - and it's great to see the memories come flooding back. … more inside
Every year for the last 10 years, the Governors of Glasgow Academy together with the Senior Leadership Team and members of the teaching staff have gone off for 24 hours to consider the direction in which the school is heading. In previous years we've debated subjects like the wisdom of building a new Prep School, the desirability of starting an External Relations department and whether Drama should be given a place on the timetable. (The answer was 'Yes' in each case, by the way.) … more inside
I'm writing this on the Euston train to Glasgow Central on my way back from the London Academicals' Dinner. For some reason – possibly a dark foreboding – I've decided not to risk a trip to Twickenham for the annual Calcutta Cup match on Sunday … more inside
It's five years since I took on the job of Director of External Relations. It's an enormously diverse role and one that I enjoy thoroughly. It's never possible to predict what will happen on any given day as no two days are the same. I spend much of my time developing relationships with parents who are thinking of sending their children to The Academy and - with 1300 children on three sites - that's a good number of relationships! … more inside
I always enjoy lunching with the Gasbags. It's a great privilege for one so young. Gasbags? That's Glasgow Academicals Slightly Biased Against the Governors, for those not in the know. The society was founded in 1947 and has been meeting regularly ever since. … more inside

In 2004 Time magazine named Niall Ferguson one of the 100 most influential people in the world. He is pretty much universally acknowledged as one of the world's most able thinkers and debaters – something I discovered earlier than most when (a brand new teacher at Glasgow Academy) I found him sitting in the front row of my A Level English class! I learned a lot that year … more inside
Even on the greyest of November days, Elgol on the west coast of Skye strikes one as a little piece of paradise untouched by the twenty-first century.

Yesterday I had the privilege of joining the people of Stirling in celebrating the life of Scotland's oldest soldier. Lt Col Francis Saunders – known pretty universally as Frank – served in two world wars. Although only a boy during The Great War, he acted as a bicycle messenger scout in London and vividly recalled dodging bombs dropped from a Zeppelin – believing that every next one had his name on it. As we now know, he dodged not only German bombs but everything else that life had to throw at him and lived to the remarkable age of 106. … more inside
Contrary to popular belief, schools are quite interesting places to be during the holidays - at least this one is! No sooner do all the pupils and teachers go home for the holidays than a whole array of others arrive to take their place: painters and decorators, builders, electricians, flooring specialists and kitchen fitters. I suspect you'll probably find a whole phone directory of trades specialists at The Academy over the course of one holiday. … more inside
I've never been to a class reunion at my school. The truth is I've never been asked. I'm not even sure that my school does reunions – but if they do, no one's ever mentioned them to me. … more inside
Occasional visitors to The Academy at this time of year ask if the school is 'winding down towards the end of term'. It's quite likely that such visitors don't know Glasgow Academy very well! … more inside
Once upon a time, when life was much simpler, Glasgow Academy communicated with its entire community - pupils, their parents, former pupils, Governors and staff - by sending them a closely-worded pamphlet called the Chronicle. This was nice and thin and easy to send by post three times a year. Since the Post Office enjoyed a monopoly, postal rates were cheap and everyone was happy. … more inside
It was May of 1980 and a rather anxious PGCE student arrived at the school office to await my interview. The Academy has always liked to ensure that the responsibility for interviewing potential new recruits is spread evenly across different departments. I knew that I had to meet the Rector and Deputy Rector, the Head of English and so on but it was the man with the military bearing in the airforce-blue uniform who made me most nervous. … more inside
It's good to celebrate anniversaries. They help us to remember – and they encourage us to put things in perspective. Take the Glasgow Academical Club, for example. It's 150 years since a group of young men asked permission to use the school gym for sport – and a club that has spurred many on to feats of great sporting success was born. … more inside
"It's been a great year to be an Accie!"

It's a great pleasure and privilege to join The Glasgow Academy and be able to introduce myself to you through this highly regarded and well-loved publication. I have been given permission from the Rector and Malcolm to write this column and edit this issue of Etcetera. … more inside

Prince William, Prince Harry Cousin Arthur Chatto, New Royal Hunk Of Instagram, Account Made Private
Amy Feinstein
While it hasn't been that unusual to see photos of royals caught with their pants down, rarely have the royals actually taken the photos. But now a new generation of royals have embraced social media, and one, Arthur Chatto, the grandson of Princess Margaret (the deceased sister of Queen Elizabeth), has taken Instagram to a new level by posting selfies in his underwear. And Arthur Chatto, 18, is pretty buff and has a huge Instagram following for a royal without a big name.
And Queen Elizabeth, great aunt of Arthur Chatto is reportedly not amused, as she still prefers as many royal photos as possible to be taken by the professional press by appointment if possible. And Sarah Chatto, mother of Arthur Chatto has still been tightly in the royal fold, attending a variety of royal events, including the decommissioning of the royal yacht Brittania. For Queen Elizabeth, it was considered a big deal to allow Vanity Fair photographer Annie Leibovitz to take pictures of her with her Welsh Corgis for a special cover story. Queen Elizabeth's Corgis were getting older, and the queen had decided not to add to their ranks as she too was getting up there in age. These photos were thought to be as laid back as Queen Elizabeth was willing to get.

And ironically, a full spread of the Instagram photos of Arthur Chatto was also featured in Vanity Fair. While the world might not have known the name Arthur Chatto before, they do now.
"Consider the photo, an artful homage to Mark Wahlberg's 90s Calvin Klein campaign, his official coming out."
Sadly for those who would like to scroll through Arthur Chatto's Instagram photos, after the article ran, the account suddenly was made private, no doubt from family pressure. But Arthur, who is headed to Edinburgh University in the fall still has an Instagram account which one can ask to follow. And Arthur Chatto is not just a one-trick pony with underwear selfies, judging by the photos he plays the bagpipe, skis, and is an avid outdoorsman. But let's just say that's not what people are noticing, as posts under the selfie photo indicate that the things being noticed about Arthur are not his bagpipes.
"Omg u are literally my dream man omg????????????????????????????????" and "someone get this man a modeling contract."

— ET Canada (@ETCanada) July 28, 2017
And while past generations might have gushed over Prince William or Prince Harry, neither of the older princes came of age in the day of Instagram, and so Arthur Chatto has become an instant favorite of teen girls, and magazines like Teen Vogue has picked up on the trend. But before the world took notice of Arthur Chatto, he had only posted sixteen photos of his travels with friends and family, including his brother, Sam Chatto, who also has an Instagram account (and Sam's account is still public, for now).

While it might be a bit difficult to see new photos of Arthur Chatto for now, something says that his recent push into the spotlight might have created a new thirst for the media to snap pictures of Arthur Chatto and friends on his daily rounds.
What do you think of the photos of royal Arthur Chatto? Do you think Queen Elizabeth and the family forced Arthur Chatto to make his Instagram private?

I was so excited when I saw this book. It brought my writing full circle.
You may have remembered about 10 years ago, when email forwards were still semi-acceptable to send, getting a forward of a bunch of kids 'artwork' and a guy grading them and making fun of them. I thought it was the funniest thing I had ever read and found the person's website who made it. His name is Maddox, and his website is "The Best Page in the Universe," It's pretty dope. Here are some of my favorite posts (here, here and here).
Anyways, I can give this dude credit for my tone and writing style...he has a little more of a 'f-ck you' edge than me, but I try.
This book takes the post and that infamous email forward to a whole other level. There were the drawings from the original and then added pictures, test answers, photos and paintings. All given an F grade and a reason.
I will say that there is only so much you can say about kids drawings since they all seem to look the same after page 75, but I still appreciate the effort.

Seize the Off-Season: The Best Places to Travel in February
February is sort of the ugly stepchild of the Julian calendar. It's the shortest month of the year, even with the quadrennial occurrence of leap year. For the northern hemisphere, February is often the dreariest winter month. Sandwiched between the bustle of the winter holidays and the excitement of spring break, February is so uneventful that many believe greeting-card companies banded together to invent a consumer holiday for its 14th day. And as if February didn't have it bad enough already, it's even the most commonly misspelled month of the year.
But as professional travelers and international event experts, February holds a special place in our hearts. In our opinions, February is the most underrated month for travel. There are plenty of action-packed events and international festivals during February's 28 days. And, being the off-season, February travel is often worlds cheaper than in the summer or during the holidays.
Fall is the perfect time to start planning for a February vacation. Whether you're looking to explore a winter wonderland, sun yourself on a beach, or attend a massive sporting event, here are our top February vacation ideas:
Sporting Events in February
Think nothing ever happens in February? Think again! The top places to travel in February host some of the world's most prestigious sporting events.
1. The Winter Games
Every four years, the international community comes together to watch the world's greatest athletes compete for the gold. The Winter Games always take place over several weeks in February and proves to be one of the most riveting events on the world stage. The only thing better than curling up with a blanket and hot chocolate at home while cheering on your favorite athletes? Witnessing the spectacle first-hand.
Bustling Beijing is the perfect February vacation destination… especially for the 2022 Winter Games!
Traveling to the Winter Games is not only an amazing opportunity to take part in one of the world's premiere sporting events, but it is also an incredible chance to travel to distant cities, like Beijing, China in 2022. The Winter Games make for an unforgettable February vacation for snow sporting enthusiasts.
2. The Super Bowl
You know what's a lot more fun than a Super Bowl watch party? Being in the stands for the Super Bowl itself. Held on Sunday every February, the Superbowl is the largest sporting event in the USA, and is now televised in over 200 countries.

Going to the Super Bowl means the world's best tailgating, a top-dollar concert, celebrity spectators, media everywhere, and the excitement of highest-stakes game of the season. Plus, you'll get a chance to see one of the country's most impressive football stadiums, with the host city changing each year. Not only is the Super Bowl one of the best events to travel to in February, it's also an event you'll remember for a lifetime.
3. The World Ski Championships
Snowbunnies rejoice! Every two years, the world's fittest alpine skiers assemble in a different elite resort town to compete for the gold at the World Ski Championships. Set for the February 5th-17th, 2019 in Åre, Sweden and then again from February 9th-21st, 2021 in Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy, visiting the World Ski Championships is truly like stepping into a Winter Wonderland.

Not only are the host locations home to some of the world's most incredible ski resorts, but you'll also get a chance to explore the quaint European mountain towns in which they're found. And with bustling European metropolises nearby, the World Ski Championships make for the perfect mix of action, relaxation, and sight-seeing for an excellent February vacation.
Festivals in February
Hoping to use this February to experience foreign cultures? You're in luck, because February is filled with exciting festivals beloved by locals and tourists alike. Here are the best places to travel in February to experience an amazing festival first-hand:
4. Carnival & Mardis Gras
All throughout the Christian world, February offers the biggest parties of the year. In the weeks preceding Lent, revelers prepare for months of moderation with elaborate parades and festivals centered on excessive eating, drinking, and merry-making. Some
A Samba School passes by during the Carnival parade in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
The best part of Carnival? You could theoretically party in a different country every February. Each city offers its own unique flavors, customs, and regional advantages. For a Euro-tour, incredible wine, and elaborate artisan masks, head to Venice, Italy or Cologne, Germany. For cajun cuisine, sparkling beads, and a seriously mild winter, make your way to New Orleans for Mardis Gras. Stuff your face with pancakes, watch a burning effigy, and storm a gigantic snow fort at Maslenitsa in Russia. Or witness the glittering extravaganza of Carnival in Rio and take advantage of the southern-hemisphere summer with a drink in hand on a legendary beach. No matter what kind of February vacation you are after, there is a Carnival celebration somewhere to match your style.
5. Chinese New Year
The Lunar New Year is the biggest holiday of the year in China, and typically falls in February. Though its origins are in Chinese Daoism, many other east Asian cultures observe this day with their own celebrations as well. Regional customs vary widely, but you can count on New Year celebrations anywhere where a sizable Chinese population can be found.

The Chinese celebrate both privately and at official festivals with plentiful red and gold banners and lanterns, fire crackers and sparklers, elaborate feasts, and giant parade in honor of the year's astrological sign. According to belief, Chinese New Year is the day that can make or break your luck and wealth for the year ahead, so don't let it pass on the couch at home! Take a February vacation to Hong Kong, Shanghai, Singapore, or Beijing for an incredible Bucket List spectacle. Looking for a February vacation a bit closer to home? Head to the nearest big city with a significant China Town! China Towns from Paris to Sydney to New York celebrate the Lunar New Year in style with brilliant parades and parties.
6. Adelaide Fringe Festival
The largest open-access art festival in the southern hemisphere, Fringe Festival in Adelaide, Australia is a month long mash-up of everything having to do with creativity and culture. The entire city transforms into a gigantic art venue. Normal local businesses transform into galleries, public spaces fill with performances and art installations, parks become elaborate sets, and performers spill out onto the streets displaying their crafts.

But Fringe Festival isn't the only reason you'll want to head to Adelaide in February. If winter in the northern hemisphere has you down, then you'll love Adelaide. Summer is in full swing in February, the sun is shining, the beaches are calling, and the entire city is abuzz with art. With such glorious weather and such an expansive art festival, there is truly no better city to wander about in during February than Adelaide, Australia.

Attack Triangle is rated 5.0 out of 5 by 1.
The interactive Attack Triangle is designed to challenge players by replicating the positioning of an opponents skates and stick. With the open "lane" between the simulated skates and extending stick, the Attack Triangle forces players to develop puck movement skills, stickhandling ability and an understanding of passing lanes. By using the Attack Triangle at home or in replacement of ordinary cones at practice, players naturally start working on more creative "moves". In addition to providing more interaction than cones during practice on ice, the Attack triangle comes equipped with mooring pins which virtually eliminate sliding. The Attack Triangle just begs to get beat! Are you up to the challenge?
Rated 5 out of 5 by Mcdub_2247 from This thing really works This attack triangle really works well. I used to use a cone with a stick leaning on it... So annoying. But this is so much more convenient and really useful. Doesn't slide around at all either.
Yes, we can ship these stick trainers to Japan. The shipping will probably cost just about as much as the 6 trainers themselves ($250), but it is possible for us to ship them to your location.

Tonto Basin Arizona
Roosevelt Lake is the largest lake in Arizona at 15,560 surface acres. It is a favorite of avid anglers searching for the trophy largemouth bass along with smallmouth bass, channel catfish and crappie. The lake is large enough that high power bass boats can zoom for many miles to other portions of the lake. Depending upon lake capacity that varies with the release of water through the dam, there are miles and miles of beach area for camping along the lake's edges. Water-skiing, jet-skiing, swimming and general boating recreation makes Roosevelt lake a favorite water recreation destination. The lake features several marinas and fee-based camping sites, and contains a wildlife refuge area and is great for bird and other wildlife watching. The lake has a general store.

The story follows an underground weapons manufacturer in Belgrade during WWII and evolves into fairly surreal situations. A black marketeer who smuggles the weapons to partisans doesn't mention to the workers that the war is over, and they keep producing. Years later, they break out of their underground "shelter" --- only to convince themselves that the war is still going on.

Microsoft looking to launch new 10.6-inch Surface
By Brad Sams Senior News Editor Neowin @bdsams · Jul 28, 2014 09:04 EDT · Hot! with 64 comments
Later this year - in October, to be specific - Microsoft is said to be launching a new tablet that will be thinner and lighter than the current 10.6in devices. The device is expected to be the next generation of the RT lineup that was not refreshed when the Pro 3 was launched.
The report comes from Digitimes - admittedly, not the most reliable of sources - but we also started hearing about this device from our own sources back around the launch window of the Pro 3, but held off saying anything after Nadella and crew axed the mini.
The updates to the device should not be all that surprising - it will be slimmer and weigh less than the Surface 2, as well as featuring the new kickstand, and we are hearing that the new Surface Pen will be supported as well.
When Microsoft releases the updated device in October, it will be the third straight year that they released a tablet in that month with the Surface RT and the Surface 2 also being released in that same time window. October makes a lot of sense for the release as it gives the company enough time to raise consumer awareness about the device ahead of the holiday shopping season and enough time to ramp up manufacturing too.
Under the new leadership, these devices could be axed at any time if the company does not feel that they create a unique value proposition but considering that Microsoft's cheapest Pro 3 will start at $799 this holiday season, without a cheaper option, they will need to release something to fill the low-end gap. Microsoft's current 10.6in device, the Surface 2, will by then have outdated specs compared with newer devices, and unless Microsoft is willing to cut the price, they will need to introduce something new to satisfy consumer expectations.
As always, nothing is official until Microsoft announces the device but we should know more later this year.

Pensions consultants face increasing pressure to justify their worth in the new-look pensions world in which providers are offering integrated schemes with in-built governance and employee communication services alongside asset management.
Speaking at the Employee Benefits Pensions and Workplace Savings Summit on 31 January, Debbie Harrison, senior visiting fellow at The Pensions Institute at Cass Business School, said: "We don't know yet what consultancy charges actually cover and how you can measure that.
Harrison said she was also unclear about how consultancy charges are structured. "It's not clear to me whether some of the communications or the platform, for example, are actually part of the scheme charge or part of a consultancy charge, nor do I know the point range and how many basis points consultants might be adding to the member charge," she said.
There are a number of reasons why an employer may use a consultant, such as the desire for an independent third-party provider to document and sign off its strategy.
Harrison is in the midst of research into consultancy charges, which will cover the extent to which they offer employers and employees value for money.
Employers should review their currency consultancy arrangements. "If you think you've very much got a Nest-type profile, then you've got to wonder if they're going to benefit," she said.
She added that the pressure under which consultants will increasingly find themselves will eventually extend to pension providers, which will be forced to consider the direct-to-employer-style of business that new-style schemes, such as Nest, have adopted.

The appointment of Riccardo Tisci as creative director of Burberry, the 162-year-old English brand better known and beloved for its classic trench coats and checkered scarves than youthful energy, surprised everyone. But with his S/S '19 debut, the designer proved that he could make a collection both totally Burberry and fearlessly his own.
The first hints of the new direction for the label came with the release of a not uncontroversial new (but also throwback) logo this summer, along with a new monogram pattern that began popping up on everything from storefronts to taxicabs. The nervousness over the changes continued with Burberry's streetwear drops on Instagram and the transformation of their London flagship—which now features a three-story installation made of raw scaffolding by artist Graham Hudson, tons of plastic torsos and a 3D photo studio for its own sculpture-carving robot. Even before the show Monday, it was clear that this was not going to be your grandpa's Burberry.
Monday's show took place in the hanger-like South London Mail, where soft khaki seats surrounded an extra long elevated catwalk. Pillars were mirrored and the space was divided by wooden walls, window panes and translucent panels. As the show was about to begin, what appeared to be solid roof peeled away, revealing a giant glass ceiling that let the mid-afternoon light in.
Compression sleeves with printed squares, and shirts and pants with vintage photographs, sheer polka dots over animal print (animal prints appeared throughout the show—not least of all a deer patterned shirt that read "WHY DID THEY KILL BAMBI?"), and thigh harnesses were among many unusual decidedly non-Burberry, but very Tisci-esque touches. Not to mention the embrace of the logo trend, which seems to be going nowhere.
The men's suiting, which is generally not the most thrilling moment of any show, was actually aa standout—inventive and new in simple details like three button closures and chest-mounted bands for ties—while remaining timeless and unaffected.
Another exciting invention were belts and bands that stretched high on the chest, breathing new energy and strangeness into Burberry.
And of course, the brand's signature trench coats made an appearance, revamped with an array of new detailing, including chains, detached feathers and snakeskin-embossed leather.
In a lot of ways, the show almost felt split—the first looks were very traditional Burberry, but as models continued down the runway, Tisci's influence became more and more apparent. And while some reviewers have called the show's 134 looks unfocused, there was not a dull moment, and contending with the brand's legacy while invigorating it with a unique, contemporary creative vision is certainly no easy task. Not to mention the introduction of evening wear—primarily in the form of simple, refined black jersey dresses.
As for accessories—they were also mixed. While there was some exciting new footwear (including a pair of faux crocodile pumps that are already available at the London store), the bags left something more to be desired—though there's definitely a certain kind of (great?) novelty in Burberry making oversized fanny packs. And post-show, no one can stop talking about the fake passports that hung around the models' necks.
It was particularly exciting to see Tisci's embrace and revamp of Burberry's trademark check, which the brand has been pulling away from in recent years over its associations with knockoffs and classist fears of footballers in brown, white and red bringing down the brand's cachet. Turned into stripes and deconstructed into multi-patterned shirts, Tisci remixed it into a new, cool, distinctive tartan.
While exhaustively going through each look would be well…exhausting, suffice to say we're liking the new direction. And you can peep some of our favorites, below.

Nursing multiples was a terrifying thought to me when I found out I was having twins. I had two other children who I had breastfed, but nursing two babies sounded like a full time job with no breaks at all.
When I delivered, I nursed them one at a time during my stay at the hospital, but once we were home and real life happened, I realized I would have to figure out a way to nurse them together to save on time and be more efficient.
So I propped them up each in the football hold in my arms on my big twin sized boppy and gave it a whirl. After that feeding I felt like I deserved a medal of some sort! It worked, and they both guzzled my milk and somehow I wasn't crying in pain.
We spent many hours together in my big lazy boy recliner chair with a boppy in my lap. (I ended up using a regular sized one) After a few months, the football hold was becoming too hard with their growing bodies. I found the best way was to lay one baby across in the cradle hold, and then lay the other on top of her sister's tummy in the same direction. I would switch them around every feeding, and it was an amazing thing to watch them interact and find each others hands to hold.
I actually loved nursing them together and looked forward to our special quiet time in that big chair.
We had 10 months of breastfeeding and I'm so happy it worked out so well. The key with multiples is to keep them on the same schedule. Whatever you do for one baby, you do for the other. If you do that, you'll somehow make it through.

Artifictional Intelligence: is the Singularity or the Surrender the real threat to humanity?
September 7, 2018 No Comment	George Anadiotis read
Artificial intelligence is one of those things: overhyped and yet mystical, the realm of experts and yet something everyone is inclined to have an opinion on. Harry Collins is no AI expert, and yet he seems to get it in a way we could only wish more experts did.
Collins is a sociologist. In his book "Artifictional Intelligence – Against Humanity's Surrender to Computers", out today from Polity, Collins does many interesting things. To begin with, he argues what qualifies him to have an opinion on AI.
Collins is a sociologist of science at the School of Social Sciences, Cardiff University, Wales, and a Fellow of the British Academy. Part of his expertise is dealing with human scientific expertise, and therefore, intelligence.
It sounds plausible that figuring out what constitutes human intelligence would be a good start to figure out artificial intelligence, and Collins does a great job at it.
The impossibility claims
The gist of Collins' argument, and the reason he wrote the book, is to warn against what he sees as a real danger of trusting AI to the point of surrendering critical thinking, and entrusting AI with more than what we really should. This is summarized by his 2 "impossibility claims":
1. No computer will be fluent in natural language, pass a severe Turing test and have full human-like intelligence unless it is fully embedded in normal human society.
2. No computer will be fully embedded in normal human society as a result of incremental progress based on current techniques.
There is quite some work to back up those claims of course, and this is what Collins does throughout the 10 Chapters of his book. Before we embark on this kind of meta-journey of summarizing his approach, however, it might be good to start with some definitions.
The Turing test is a test designed to categorize "real" AI. At its core, it seems simple: a human tester is supposed to interact with an AI candidate in a conversational manner. If the human cannot distinguish the AI candidate from a human, then the AI has passed the Turing test and is said to display real human-like intelligence.
The Singularity is the hypothesis that the appearance of "real" artificial intelligence will lead to artificial superintelligence, bringing unforeseen consequences and unfathomable changes to human civilization. Views on the Singularity are typically polarized, seeing the evolution of AI as either ending human suffering and cares or ending humanity altogether.
This is actually a good starting point for Collins to ponder on the anthropomorphizing of AI. Why, Collins asks, do we assume that AIs would want the same things that humans want, such as dominance and affluence, and thus pose a threat to humanity?
This is a far-reaching question. It serves as a starting point to ask more questions about humanity, such as why people are, or are seen as, individualistic, how do people learn, and what is the role of society in learning.
Science, and learning, argues Collins, do not happen in a monotonous, but rather in a modulated way. What this means is that rather than seeing knowledge acquisition as looking to uncover and unlock a set of predefined eternal truths, or rules, the way it progresses is also dependent on interpretation and social cues. It is, in other words, subject to co-production.
This applies, to begin with, to the directions knowledge acquisition will take. A society for which witches are a part of the mainstream discourse, for example, will have very different priorities than one in which symptomatic medicine is the norm.
But it also applies to the way observations, and data, are interpreted. This is a fundamental aspect of science, according to Collins: the data is *always* out there. Our capacity for collecting them may fluctuate with technical progress, but it is the ability to interpret them that really constitutes intelligence, and that does have a social aspect.
Collins leverages his experience from social embedding as practiced in sociology to support his view. When dealing with a hitherto unknown and incomprehensible social group, a scholar would not be able to understand its communication unless s/he is in some way embedded in it.
All knowledge is social, according to Collins. Image: biznology
Collins argues for the central position on language in intelligence, and ties it to social embedding. It would not be possible, he says, to understand a language simply by statistical analysis. Not only would that miss all the subtle cues of non-verbal communication, but, as opposed to games such as Go or chess that have been mastered by computers, language is open-ended and ever-evolving.
Collins also introduces the concept of interactional expertise, and substantiates it based on his own experience over a long period of time with a group of physicists working in the field of gravitational waves.
Even though he never will be an expert who produces knowledge in the field, Collins has been able to master the topics and the language of the group over time. This has not only gotten him to be accepted as a member of the community, but has also enabled him to pass a blind test.
A blind test is similar to a Turing test: a judge, who is a practising member of the community, was unable to distinguish Collins, a non-practising member, from another practising member, based on their answers to domain specific questions. Collins argues this would never have been possible had he not been embedded in the community, and this is the core of the support for his first impossibility claim.
Top-down or Bottom-up?
As for the second impossibility claim, it has to do with the way AI works. Collins has one chapter dedicated to the currently prevalent technique in AI called Deep Learning. He explains how Deep Learning works in an approachable way, which boils down to pattern recognition based on a big enough and good enough body of precedents.
The fact that there are more data (digitized precedents) and more computing power (thanks to Moore's Law) today is what has enabled this technique to work. It's not really new, as it has been around for decades, it's just that we did not have enough data and processing power to make it work reliably and fast enough up until now.
In the spirit of investigating the principal, not the technicalities behind this approach, Collins concedes some points to its proponents. First, he assumes technical capacity will not slow down and soon reach the point of being able to use all human communication in transcribed form.
Second, he accepts a simplified model of the human brain as used by Ray Kurzweil, one of AIs more prominent proponents. According to this model, the human brain is composed of a large number of pattern recognition elements. So all intelligence boils down to is advanced pattern recognition, or bottom-up discovery of pre-existing patterns.
Top-down, or bottom-up? Image: Organizational Physics
Collins argues however that although pattern recognition is a necessary precondition for intelligence, it is not sufficient. Patterns alone do not equal knowledge, there needs to be some meaning attached to them, and for this language and social context is required. Language and social context are top-down constructs.
Collins, therefore, introduices an extended model of the human brain, in which additional inputs are processed, coming from social context. This, in fact, is related to another approach in AI, labeled symbolic AI. In this top-down approach, instead on relying exclusively on pattern recognition, the idea is to encode all available knowledge in a set of facts and rules.
Collins admits that his second impossibility claim is weaker than the first one. The reason is that technical capacity may reach a point that enables us to encode all available knowledge, even tacit one, a task that seems out of reach today. But then again, many things that are commonplace today seemed out of reach yesterday.
In fact, the combination of bottom-up and top-down approaches to intelligence that Collins stands behind, is what many AI experts stand for as well. The most promising path to AI will not be Deep Learning alone, but a combination of Deep Learning and symbolic AI. To his credit, Collins is open-minded about this, has had very interesting conversations with leading experts in the field, and incorporated them in the book.
Technical understanding and Ideology
There are many more interesting details that could not possibly fit in a book review: Collins' definition of 6 levels of AI, the fractal model of knowledge, exploring what an effective Turing test would be, and more.
The book is a tour de force of epistemology for the masses: easy to follow, and yet precise and well-informed. Collins tiptoes his way around philosophy and science, from Plato to Wittgestein to AI pioneers, in a coherent way.
He also touches issues such as the roots of capitalism or what is driving human behavior, although he seems to have made a conscious choice of not going into them, possibly in the spirit of not derailing the conversation or perhaps alienating readers. In any case, his book will not only make AI approachable, but will also make you think on a variety of topics.
And, in the end, it does achieve what it set out to do. It gives a vivid warning against the Surrender, which should be about technical understanding, but perhaps even more so about ideology.

Got tech, data, and media, and not afraid to use them. Coming from an IT background, I've had the chance to learn to play many instruments on the way to becoming a one man band and an orchestrator: being a Gigaom analyst and a ZDNet journalist, serving Fortune 500, startups and NGOs as a consultant, building and managing projects, products and teams of all sizes and shapes, and getting involved in award-winning research among others. I enjoy researching, developing, applying and talking about cutting edge concepts and technology. I also like to think i get people somehow, and find it's important to work on the interplay between technological and social progress.


Location: Situated close to the farmhouse on the other side of the drive, at the foot of Newton Down.
Farm planned 1860s possibly associated with Inclosure Award of 1864 involving enclosure of Newton Down and transferring remainder to landowners in parish. Original plans held in County Record Office show buildings grouped round a courtyard close to the farmhouse, one plan dated 1852 endorsed 'For Sir J J Guest Bart MP'. An undated plan shows an E shaped farm complex, clearly not as built; another shows a 3 sided courtyard, not unlike present arrangement but lacking the long S cow-house range, which was most probably part of the original construction as it shares the king post roof construction illustrated elsewhere. Elevation drawings of 1862 show N and S ranges, the former with waggon house and granary above, similar though not identical to present arrangement. There is thus no plan of the complex as built, but the series shows an interesting development in planning the accommodation. Architect David Vaughan of Bonvilston who practised 1840-1891.
A rectangular courtyard, entered from SE corner with former outer tracks also to outward facing entrances. Built of stone rubble with tooled ashlar or blue brick dressings and deep Welsh slate roofs with overhanging eaves. Anti-clockwise from SE corner: E loosebox stable range formerly mainly faced outwards but additional inner doors have been made subsequently; boarded doors and window openings have segmental arched heads and roughly dressed voussoirs. N range, the tallest, has central barn with tall segmental arched doorway to gabled porch with chamfered ventilation slits, rectangular to sides, round headed in apex; on the outer wall to E is a Dutch bay or carriage bay, a 6 bay ground floor arcade, blocked at end, in dressed stone; square headed openings above with sills under cambered arches to former granary reached by stone steps at end adjacent to stables; other loft W of main porch and cambered headed openings on each floor to rear adjacent to former rickyard. Ground floor has internal dividing long wall providing further accomodation reached from main courtyard with cambered arched heads to some doors and windows but some later alterations. Three bay range to W now without slates reported as former dairy has segmental arched windows and doorways. Cowshed range to S has 7 bays, blue brick segmental arched surrounds to planked doors, 5 slit windows on outside wall. Cistern or slurry tank at NE corner adjacent to granary steps.
Barn has cobbled floor to porch, flagged inside. 2 storey central threshing bay and dividing walls on both sides with first floor doorway to W. King post roofs with tie beam and struts dowelled into base of kingposts and trenched purlins.
Included as a planned courtyard farm range from the mid C19 retaining much of its original character; group value with Manor Farmhouse.

"The Northern Isles depend on Loganair for safe and reliable air services to Aberdeen and further afield. Too many flights have been late or cancelled. That means real disruption for passengers. Today Loganair recognised they must do better and invest in engineering that gets planes back flying as soon as possible.

Sprint axes Huawei, ZTE telecom bids due to security fears in Washington?
International iPhone users: bringing your iPhone to the States? Your options are limited.
Huawei might be making inroads into the US consumer smartphone market, but the Chinese telecom supplier's attempts to break into big business have been stonewalled. Now, the Wall Street Journal reports that Sprint is excluding both Huawei and competitor ZTE from a multi-billion dollar contract -- where they would have been the lowest bidders -- primarily because of national security concerns. The US Secretary of Commerce reportedly called Sprint CEO Dan Hesse to voice concerns about letting firms with possible ties to the Chinese government supply local communications infrastructure, a perspective also penned by eight US senators back in August. "DoD is very concerned about China's emerging cyber capabilities and any potential vulnerability within or threat to DoD networks," the Department of Defense told the publication, without naming Huawei or ZTE directly. We're not doctors, but it sounds like someone's got a serious case of supercomputer envy.
