Skimo: Damiano Lenzi winner in the Individual, Michele Boscacci celebrates the gold is the Sprint and the second placement in the general ranking
Last Saturday in Prato Nevoso, the athletes competing in the ISMF world cup Individual race, had to contend with somewhat adverse weather and snow conditions. However, despite these challenging conditions Mondole Ski Alp created a race with 18 changes of technique, 8 ascents with a total vertical rise of 1700m, covering a distance of 17km.
The winner of the Senior Men's category was the favorite Damiano Lenzi. The La Sportiva ambassador grabbed the gold with a time of 01:37:04.17 , followed by Austrian Jakob Herrman (01:37:48.88 ) and in third place Matteo Eydallin (01:38:10.10).
Laetitia Roux, France continued her dominance of the women's world cup with a time of 01:24:23.93, followed by Jennifer Fiechter, Switzerland (01:25:05.32 ) and another good placing for France with Axelle Mollaret in third place (01:26:12.09) - Laetitia Roux commented that it was a technical race, and for her particularly hard after Sochi and the Pierra Menta.
La Sportiva stole the show again with the Junior Women, which saw in first position the young gun Mara Martini (01:07:17.98) and second with Giulia Murada, third place was awarded to Spain's Julia Casanovas Cuairan
Yesterday the second day of races in Prato Nevoso was all about the last Sprint competition of the season. Although very close to the ski slopes, the track also incorporated sections off piste, and was appreciated by the athletes. Giorgio Colombo, president of the local organising committee, Mondole Ski Alp, praised volunteers and teams alike for creating a great event despite the challenge of dealing with difficult weather and snow conditions.
The clear favourite to win the women's event was Laetitia Roux, France and she did not disappoint expectations, winning both the race and the Sprint speciality cup. The men's race today went to Italian Michele Boscacci, whereas his team mate Robert Antonioli took the title in the Sprint speciality cup.
La Sportiva ambassador was surprised at his own win, " I didn't think I could do it, but I was in good condition today, I made a great time during the qualifications, and was lucky to set of first in the descent during the final. I'm really happy as this was so unexpected"
The Senior Men's race today was very close, with Boscacci crossing the line just in front of his rival Iwan Arnold from Switzerland. Third place was taken by Daniel Zugg, Austria trailing slightly behind the other two.
Names and points of the Speciality Cup Winners:
1. Roux Laetitia (FRA) 300 points
2. Galicia Cotrina Claudia (ESP) 220 points
3. Garcia Farres Marta (ESP) 160 points
1. Antonioli Robert (ITA) 200 points

Is Disease A Threat To International Security? – Analysis
July 9, 2015 August 5, 2015 ISN Security Watch 0 Comments
By ISN Security Watch
Does the specter of bioterrorism or similar threats justify treating disease as a significant danger to international security? Joao Nunes has his doubts. While diseases can indeed be weaponized by non-state actors, overly militarized responses to the threats they pose may do more harm than good.
By Joao Nunes*
In August 2014, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the recent outbreak of the Ebola virus in West Africa to be a 'public health emergency of international concern'. The following month, Médecins sans Frontières made an appeal for a robust civilian and military intervention to tackle the epidemic. Spurred by the fact that Western nationals had become infected, Western governments responded to these appeals, with the United States committing up to 3000 troops and the United Kingdom deploying a contingent of 750 troops.
Ebola may have been presented in the media as an unprecedented threat, but the story around it was very familiar. The Western public was bombarded with images reminiscent of blockbusters like Outbreak or Contagion: chaotic scenes in makeshift hospitals, nameless individuals in pain or in mourning, health workers in biohazard suits, rioting crowds, military personnel enforcing quarantines, somber declarations in Washington and Geneva, the arrival of Western assistance. These fictional stories could well have been real; real stories could easily be fictionalized. Overall, it seems uncontroversial to accept the suggestion that epidemic disease is a security threat, not only to the cohesiveness of a society but also to international stability. Lurking in the background of these scenarios there are anxieties about disease leading to uncontrolled population movements, the closing of borders, disruption of international trade, depletion of militaries and competition over scarce resources. All of these problems fall within the remit of security.
But is disease really a security issue? Who or what is being threatened?
The landscape of fear
On the 20th of March 1995, members of the Japanese religious cult Aum Shinrikyo released a deadly nerve gas in the Tokyo subway, killing 13 people and leaving 6000 suffering from lasting effects . This was one of the first incidents of bioterrorism to receive worldwide attention in the post-Cold War era. Shortly after 9/11, letters containing anthrax spores were sent to several news media and US Senate offices, killing 5 people and triggering panic in an already charged political and social environment. The world had awakened to the prospect of a future in which disease agents could be easily weaponized in biological warfare or used to cause terror and havoc. 'Health security' has since included concerns over the protection of critical infrastructure against the possibility of deliberate contamination of water supplies or food chains. In general, the rise of the vocabulary of health security in the post-9/11 period has less to do with actual diseases than with anxiety over the fragility of the complex systems and networks that sustain life in a globalized world. Nowadays, the WHO claims that there is 'an inevitable linkage between public health security and bioterrorism', while poor health can be one of the 'contributors to conflict and international terrorism'.
In this context, it may seem strange to question the status of disease as an international security threat. As Hollywood understands well enough, our imaginary when thinking about disease is ruled by fear. Uncontrolled outbreaks – so the story goes – constitute threats to the very existence of modern societies. They threaten to irrevocably disrupt our way of life. They demand rapid measures – and, sometimes, that normal rules and deliberation procedures are circumvented. Health is thus a fertile ground for securitization, that is, for the framing of diseases using a 'defense modality' normally reserved for threats of a military nature. In this securitized scenario, the deployment of militaries seems a natural response. It is not surprising that normal responses to disease outbreaks emphasize 'emergency preparedness', 'containment' and 'crisis management'. Diseases, after all, are emergencies that demand swift decisions and unfettered action. How else are we expected to deal with problems like Ebola?
Emergencies or everyday challenges?
These kinds of narratives about health security ultimately take the state as the frame of reference. Where weaponized disease agents are not the primary concern, disease is said to threaten state capacity or resources, or the stability of the state is deemed to be at risk because of the societal turmoil caused by outbreaks. Based on a particular idea of whom or what is threatened by disease, these kinds of narratives prescribe certain responses, particularly militarized ones, as natural or desirable. Insofar as state fragility can have regional and international repercussions, this national security framing of health is then reflected in relations between states, where it becomes an international security concern.
Health, however, can also be conceived as a threat outside this national security frame – particularly if one shifts the focus towards the individual. For individuals, health security pertains to assuredness, predictability or stability in relation to one's present and future health status. In this perspective, rather than being a source of social-political disturbance, 'disease' regains its fundamental meaning: that of a bodily experience. Health security then pertains to the forms of harm and vulnerability that individuals experience: not only those resulting from or multiplied by disease (like disability or destitution), but also pre-existing vulnerabilities that give rise to disease in the first place (like malnutrition or insufficient knowledge about the causes of disease). Even though an individual's health status obviously depends on the societal context and on conditions that are provided by states (like health systems or sanitation infrastructure), the ultimate referent for thinking about health security in these approaches is the individual. These approaches therefore imply that health issues should be considered security matters insofar as they decisively restrict the ability of individuals to shape the course of their lives.
This shift of focus raises an important issue: why use security language at all to discuss questions of individual survival and well-being that are normally left to discourses of development and rights? There is at least one compelling reason for doing so: perhaps more than any other term, invoking 'security' frames experiences of disease as the 'life-or-death' matters that they really are. Every year, millions of people die because of health problems that could be easily prevented and cured. In 2012, for example, 1.5 million people died as a result of diarrhoeal disease and 1.1 million of preterm birth complications . These are issues that do not figure high on the list of policy priorities, but they are nonetheless a daily insecurity for millions. They constitute an enormous source of suffering and anxiety – as well as being a tremendous economic and social burden for societies. The widespread acceptance of individual experiences of disease as matters of security would raise the profile of these problems and facilitate political action to address them. This political action need not entail undemocratic or heavy-handed measures. Rather, using security language can help to raise consciousness about the seriousness of an issue and to transcend political deadlock.
Health and global security
Of course, diseases can have important national security implications, and, in some cases, military participation in disease response is indeed beneficial. After all, in the case of the recent Ebola outbreak, it was Médecins sans Frontières, one of the organizations that has done the most to alleviate the suffering caused by the disease, that called for an intervention involving military measures. The problem is that an excessive focus on military crisis management and emergency preparedness can obscure the reality that, for the majority of people living in less developed regions of the world, disease is anything but exceptional – it is part of daily life. In fact, excessive 'crisis thinking' can actually contribute to insecurity because it privileges containing existing crises over addressing the long-term, structural problems that give rise to crises in the first place.
It is not difficult to envision a situation in which uncontrolled disease might potentially threaten international security. But the international dimension is only one part of the story. Disease is a daily security threat to countless people around the world. These people are fundamentally insecure because disease has rendered or threatens to render them unable to exercise significant control over their lives. Recognizing the relevance of these everyday disease experiences can help to improve the security of these individuals in the complex environments in which they live.

You are currently viewing Archived reports for the week of 3 October-9 October 2012.
INSIVUMEH reported that on 3 October a hot lahar descended Fuego's Ceniza drainage (SSW), carrying logs, branches, and blocks. During 4-5 October explosions ejected incandescent tephra 75-150 m above the crater, producing ash plumes that rose 600-900 m and drifted 10 km N and NW. Explosions generated shock waves and vibrated houses in local communities. Avalanches descended the Ceniza and Taniluyá drainages (SSW).
On 7 October the seismic network detected increased activity characterized by tremor, low-frequency earthquakes, and a period of constant explosions. Rumbling was heard and shock waves were detected. Ashfall was reported in Panimache I and II (8 KM SW), Morelia (9 km SW), and Santa Sofia (12 km SW). Incandescent block avalanches originating from the crater descended the flanks. During 7-8 October explosions ejected incandescent tephra 75-150 m above the crater, and generated ash plumes that drifted 10 km S and SW. On 8 October a lava flow traveled 100 m down the Ceniza drainage, producing incandescent block avalanches from the flow front. Avalanches descended the Taniluyá drainage. Ashfall was reported in Panimache I and II, Morelia, and Asunción.
According to the Darwin VAAC, CVGHM reported that on 6 October an ash plume from Lokon-Empung rose to an altitude of 3.7 km (12,000 ft) a.s.l.; the plume altitude was determined by wind data. A thermal anomaly was detected in satellite imagery. According to a news article, an eruption at 1405 on 7 October ejected incandescent tephra as high as 350 m above the crater and generated an ash plume that rose 1.5 km. The article also noted that Lokon-Empung had erupted 41 times in September and three times on 5 October.
Based on seismic data and visual observations, CVGHM raised the Alert Level for Paluweh (also known as Rokatenda) from 1 to 2 (on a scale of 1-4) on 8 October.
Based on a pilot observation, the Tokyo VAAC reported that on 3 October an ash plume from Suwanose-jima drifted SW at altitude of 3 km (10,000 ft) a.s.l.
CVGHM reported that during 1 September-3 October diffuse white plumes from Tengger Caldera's Bromo cone rose 50 m above the crater. Seismicity increased on 1 October, and during 1-3 October a sulfur odor was occasionally noted at the Bromo Observation Post. On 3 October the Alert Level was raised to 2 (on a scale of 1-4).
Based on information from JMA, the Tokyo VAAC reported that explosions from Sakura-jima's Showa Crater during 3-9 October produced plumes that rose to altitudes of 1.8-3 km (6,000-10,000 ft) a.s.l. and drifted W, SW, S, SE, and E. JMA reported that during 5-9 October explosions ejected tephra as far as 1.3 km from the crater. An explosion produced a small pyroclastic flow that traveled 300 m down the E side of Showa Crater.
Based on analyses of satellite imagery, the Darwin VAAC reported that on 3 October an ash plume from Bagana rose to an altitude of 4.3 km (14,000 ft) a.s.l. and drifted 65 km NW.
Based on analyses of satellite imagery, the Darwin Volcanic Ash Advisory Centre (VAAC) reported that during 6-7 October ash plumes from Batu Tara rose to an altitude of 2.4 km (8,000 ft) a.s.l. and drifted 45 km W.
INGEOMINAS reported that during 2-9 October cameras around Galeras recorded daily emissions that drifted NW and often contained ash. Earthquakes were at most M 2.2 and occurred within 15 km of the crater at depths of less than 10 km. An M 2.2 earthquake on 8 October was located at a depth of 8 km, 7 km NE of the crater. The Alert Level remained at III (Yellow; "changes in the behavior of volcanic activity").
KVERT reported moderate seismic activity from Karymsky during 28 September-5 October. Seismic data indicated that possible ash plumes rose to an altitude of 4 km (13,100 ft) a.s.l. Satellite imagery showed a thermal anomaly on the volcano on 28 September and 2 October. The Aviation Color Code remained at Orange.
Based on and information from the Kamchatka Branch of the Geophysical Service (KGBS), the Tokyo VAAC reported that on 6 October ash plumes rose to altitudes of 6.1-6.7 km (20,000-22,000 ft) a.s.l. and drifted SE. The plume altitudes were based on seismic data analyses.
During 3-9 October HVO reported that the circulating lava lake periodically rose and fell in the deep pit within Kilauea's Halema'uma'u Crater. Periodic measurements indicated that the gas plume from the vent continued to deposit variable amounts of spatter and Pele's hair onto nearby areas. On 5 October geologists using a laser range-finder measured the high lava level at 52 m below the floor of Halema'uma'u Crater, which was a new maximum level.
Lava flows reached the base of the pali in the Royal Gardens subdivision and flowed across the coastal plain, but were 1.6 km from the coast. At Pu'u 'O'o Crater, incandescence was visible from lava flows in the S pit, lava circulating in the E pit, and from the W edge of the crusted N pit. An opening in the roof of the lava tube at the base of the SE flank of Pu'u 'O'o also continued to glow until nearly the end of the reporting period.
RVO reported that variable low-level activity continued to be detected at Manam's Southern Crater during 16-30 September. White and occasionally gray ash plumes rose from the crater during 16-24 September, and gray ash clouds were observed during 25-29 September. Only white plumes rose from the crater on 30 September. Ash clouds drifted NW, producing ashfall in the NW part of the island. Two vents in the SE valley, just below the summit crater, produced small-volume lava flows, channeled into the deep ravines on the upper slopes of the SE valley. Glow from the crater was visible on most nights. Incandescent lava fragments were ejected from the crater during 16-17, 19-20, and 24-28 September. The ejections were occasionally sub-continuous to fountaining. Roaring and rumbling noises were sometimes heard at the Bogia station on the mainland on 16, 21, and 26 September. White vapor plumes rose from Main Crater during the reporting period.
According to the Darwin VAAC a pilot reported an intermittent eruption with a diffuse ash plume on 8 October. During 8-9 October satellite imagery showed a thermal anomaly, and an ash plume that rose to an altitude of 3.4 km (11,000 ft) a.s.l. and drifted about 45 km ENE.
Based on visual observations and analyses of satellite data, KVERT reported that during 28 September-5 October a viscous lava flow continued to effuse on the NW flank of Shiveluch's lava dome, accompanied by hot avalanches and fumarolic activity. Satellite imagery showed a thermal anomaly on the lava dome on 28 September and during 1-3 October. Based on analyses of satellite imagery, notices from Yelizovo Airport (UHPP), and information from KVERT, the Tokyo VAAC reported that on 5 October ash plumes rose to an altitude of 2.1 km (7,000 ft) a.s.l. and drifted SE. The next day ash plumes rose to an altitude of 7 km (23,000 ft) a.s.l and again drifted SE. The Aviation Color Code remained at Orange.

Trio urged to focus on World Cup fitness
15th July 2019, 13:46 by Alex Jack
England boss Eddie Jones has sent Danny Cipriani, Sam Underhill and Anthony Watson to do more fitness work ahead of the World Cup.
Gloucester stand-off Cipriani is looking to earn his place in the squad after an impressive Premiership campaign with the Cherry & Whites last term.
Bath pair Underhill and Watson, along with Cipriani, will not be taking part in next week's camp in Bristol as they all look to improve their fitness.
Jones is eager for his entire squad to be at their physical peak for the tournament and the Aussie is happy to see some individuals focus on conditioning over the coming weeks if needed.
"Our preparation is about making sure the players peak for the World Cup. It's not about being ready now for it," he said. "Some players we feel will benefit now from being away from the camp for a little bit and will do specialised strength and conditioning work.
"We want to keep the squad fresh and alive which is important and we want to make sure there is a little bit of cooperative competition for selection and edge around."

→Super Yummy Recipe: How To Make Taro Milk Tea
Super Yummy Recipe: How To Make Taro Milk Tea
Everyone loves Taro bubble tea, right? It's one of the craziest drink trends nowadays favored by most of the Asian young people. And instead of visiting Taiwan or some other Southeast Asian countries to enjoy it, why don't you try to learn how to make Taro milk tea on your own at home?
Luckily, this tea is easy to make, and you can choose any of several variations on the Internet to get started. Before that, let's find out more about Taro!
What Is Taro?
What Makes Taro Milk Tea So Famous?
How To Make Taro Milk Tea In 30 Minutes?
Step-By-Step Direction
Is There Any Taro Milk Tea Side Effect?
It's a root plant referring to the Colocasia Esculenta, and it's popularly known for the purplish content. However, you still see a few coming in white or pink color, depending on where it's grown.
Though the plan has its origin in the tropical regions of the Southeast Asia and South India, it has become the most popular ingredient used throughout the world as well, such as Hawaii, China, Africa and so on.
As for the health benefits, Taro is packed with the high volume of fiber, iron, potassium, zinc, and vitamins, making it one of the best root vegetables for boosting digestion, body circulation, and immunity. If you can't eat it raw, try to consume Taro as it's cooked properly. The Vitamin E in the root will play as the strong antioxidants to protect our cells.
Besides, Taro's low GI ensures a good health for diabetics, which is said to be much better than sweet potatoes. But be careful about taro desserts since they might have the high sugar content.
Indeed, this fun-colored drink rose to the highest popularity quite for some times in the world of bubble tea. It catches many people's eyes due to its purple hue and gently sweet flavor.
Also, this root owns the same qualities as the potatoes when it comes to the texture and starchiness. Therefore, Taro becomes a very special drink that many people love to sip it with their close friends and then have a fun chat about what Taro milk tea is like to them! Well, if you're a fan of these sweet treats, don't miss getting this purple milk tea as soon as possible.
It's just the most famous flavor amongst many other bubble tea ones. For those living in the West, this beverage is completely new to them, so no wonder why a lot of them don't know how to make Taro milk tea.
Therefore, today we give you a basic recipe that has specific ingredients and simple ratios so that you can mess with it in the way you like.
70 gr of Taro powder
2 tablespoons of black tea
180 ml of hot water
A pinch of baking soda
¼ tablespoon of sweetened condensed milk
½ cup of coconut or almond milk
2 - 4 tablespoons of liquid sugar
½ cup of ice cubes
A handful of Tapioca pearls
1 teaspoon of cream
First of all, the black Tapioca pearls should be cooked before being prepared in your serving glasses. While waiting for that to happen, brew the tea and then reserve ½ cup. Chill the remaining tea in the fridge and once those pearls are finished, just soak them in both tea and sugar.
After everything is ready, feel free to scoop how much Tapioca boba you like into one glass serving. Next, add the tea and milk before trying to taste or more sugar depending on your preference. Don't forget to stir them all again until they're melted! Use a large boba straw and started slurping, or merely a spoon if you don't have it.
1. Prepare your Tapioca boba first. Boil the water by adding water to a tea kettle and heat it until it comes to a boil. Choose the good tea kettle that has a whistle so that you're alerted when it's done. After that, put these pearls into the hot water after boiling it for 4 minutes.
Note that you must keep the heat lower a bit after seeing the boba expand and begins floating on the top of the boiling water. You can buy these marble-sized spheres at any Chinese grocery store.
2. Use a batch of tea to brew it at the same time. It's important to know how long these tea leaves must be steeped in the water. For example, if you use green tea, then it must have a shorter brewing duration (8 - 10 minutes).
On the other hand, the black tea will be best prepared for a longer brewing duration (15 - 20 minutes).
3. Drain the boba while they're cooked and then rinse them in the cold water. Doing so can wash away the Tapioca starch.
Next, add them to a jar before pouring the tea into it and have them stirred together. Close the lid and keep it at your room temperature.
4. Chill the remaining brewed tea in your refrigerator, and wait until it gets cold. Pour boba, milk, and tea to a taller glass to make Taro milk tea. It's fine to add ½ water, ½ milk.
Mix one and ½ cup of ice, five ounces of coconut milk and Taro powder into one blender.
5. It's up to you to choose non-dairy, dairy or a blend of two. Try to use one teaspoon of cream to each cup for thicker and richer texture. Finally, slurp and chew the pearls!
It's true that your bubble tea is packed with the high volume of sugar and calories. Besides, a few tea & coffee shops would love add more cream or other sweetened purees to their taro milk tea recipe. This can make your drink come at five hundred calories for sure, so make sure to ask for less sugar or just a small amount of cream.
If anyone who has to struggle hard with his or her weight as well as with diabetes, it's a bad idea to follow such a sugary and creamy recipe. Ask for skim milk or just swap for another healthier beverage.
It's the best drink for those who loves sipping it with their close friends and enjoying it in their daily life. Not to mention its popularity, the gentle thickness and sweetness of Taro bubble tea just suit every preference of lively people in the world.

Major Funding for Habitat Conservation

Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge houses a diversity of critically important species, from the formerly endangered Delmarva Peninsula fox squirrel to the American bald eagle. That is why on June 19, 2019 the Migratory Bird Conservation Commission awarded the refuge $5,980,000 to conserve migratory bird habitat. The funds were supplied by the Migratory Bird Conservation Fund via the sale of Federal Migratory Bird Hunting and Conservation Stamps, or "Duck Stamps." Blackwater was one of five National Wildlife Refuges to receive funding.
The money will be used to conserve over 2,500 acres of priority habitat for migrating species such as the American black duck, Canada goose, and greater snow goose as well as wetland-associated migratory birds like the black rail and salt-marsh sparrow. The land will also be used in the refuge's public hunt program, expanding public opportunity for white-tail deer, sika deer, turkey, and waterfowl hunting.

NATE, WIA – everyone else – welcomes Rosenworcel's return engagement to the FCC
In Daily News Briefs by Wireless Estimator June 15, 2017
If confirmed by the Senate, Jessica Rosenworcel would become only the second FCC commissioner to serve nonconsecutive terms.
President Donald Trump said he would nominate Jessica Rosenworcel to fill a Democratic seat on the FCC. The expected nomination was applauded throughout the nation.
Rosenworcel served as a commissioner until the end of 2016 when lawmakers failed to take up her renomination under former President Barack Obama, handing Republicans a 2-1 majority on the five-seat commission which has allowed the FCC to move forward with a number of projects and set in motion reversals for Obama-era regulations.
If confirmed, Rosenworcel would join Democratic Commissioner Mignon Clyburn, whose term ends on June 30. It is not known if Clyburn plans to stay on the commission.
FCC observers expect Trump to nominate Republican Brendan Carr who is currently general counsel at the FCC and an adviser to Chairman Ajit Pai, to an open seat.
A deal had been rumored in 2015 that Republican Michael O'Rielly would be confirmed if Republicans reconfirmed Rosenworcel, but it never happened.
"Better late than never," said Democratic Senator Bill Nelson of Florida in a statement on Rosenworcel's nomination. "The Senate should now move quickly to confirm her and fulfill the promise that was made two years ago."
If confirmed by the Senate, Rosenworcel would become only the second FCC commissioner to serve nonconsecutive terms. T. A. M. Craven, also a Democrat, was the first commissioner. He served from 1937 to 1944 and then served from 1956 to 1963.
If Rosenworcel gets the nod, she will return to the FCC at a time when its Republican Chairman, Ajit Pai, wants to roll back net neutrality rules.
The National Association of Tower Erectors (NATE) joined the Wireless Infrastructure Association (WIA) in championing Rosenworcel's nomination.
"NATE congratulates Jessica Rosenworcel on being nominated by President Trump to fill the open Democratic Commissioner seat," stated Executive Director Todd Schlekeway. "NATE members represent all layers of the diverse wireless infrastructure ecosystem and the Association looks forward to continuing to work closely with FCC Commissioners and staff members on the many policy and regulatory issues facing our dynamic industry," Schlekeway added.
"I congratulate Jessica for her re-nomination to the Federal Communications Commission. Jessica served with dedication and thoughtfulness during her previous tenure at the FCC. She has a deep understanding of wireless infrastructure and the important role it plays in promoting innovation and economic growth in communities around the country. We urge the Senate to expeditiously approve her nomination," said Jonathan Adelstein, President and CEO of WIA.
"NAB is delighted to hear that President Trump will renominate Jessica Rosenworcel to the FCC," said NAB president Gordon Smith. "Commissioner Rosenworcel is supremely qualified for another FCC term, having demonstrated her public service credentials and full command of telecommunications issues during her commission tenure. NAB strongly supports her renomination and confirmation."
CTIA President Meredith Attwell Baker said Rosenworcel "is a dedicated public servant who has demonstrated strong leadership and a keen understanding of the need for a modern spectrum policy, as well as promoting policies to help speed the deployment of broadband networks for American consumers and business."

This arrangement uses a different type of belt that incorporates a metal ring mounted on bearings to allow the flyer to turn independently from the safety lines (this avoids them tangling). It is used when the flyer performs a trick that requires a full twist or more. For tricks involving just a half twist, wrapping the lines before leaving the platform is usually the simpler method (see 'Half Turn Lines').
ATTACHING: The lines are attached to the Twisting Belt in the same way as Regular Lines - the left side line on the left side of the belt and the right side on the right.
TRICK EXAMPLES: Somersaults with full and double twists (e.g. Full Twisting Layout), tricks with two half turns (such as a Half Turn Catch).
While the Twisting Belt seems like a perfect solution for twisting tricks, it has its disadvantages. They are expensive, and the size of the ring is fixed, so each belt only fits a narrow range of flyers. You might find that your school doesn't have a belt to fit you. You also have to climb into the ring (and pass it over your hips) before tightening it around the waist (which can be tricky). While flying, it is also bulky and restricts the flyer's movements more than a regular safety belt.
TRICKS WITH A FULL TWIST: Wrap the lines for a full turn around your body before leaving the platform (like for 'Half Turn Lines' but with an extra turn). They will unwrap during the trick leaving you with uncrossed lines for the catch.
TRICKS WITH TWO HALF TWISTS: Use 'Half Turn Lines' and wrap just a half turn before leaving. They will unwrap for the first half twist, and will wrap again during the second. This will leave you with the lines wrapped around your body at the moment of the catch.
Neither of these options is ideal, as having lines wrapped around you makes them less safe. However it might work better for you than a Twisting Belt. Discuss with your instructor!

The annual average number of deaths from skydiving in the United States is 21.7, which is based on data from between 2010 and 2013. The average number of jumps per year for the same period was slightly more than 3 million.
The number of skydiving deaths each year has been dropping since the 1970s. The average annual number of deaths in the 1970s was 42.5. This dropped to 34.1 during the 1980s. The 1990s showed a further reduction to 32.3. The average annual rate for the first 10 years of the 21st century was only 25.8 deaths. The estimated risk of death from any one jump is only 0.0006 percent.

Danny Green says Kawhi Leonard has 'verbally' told him he's staying with the Spurs
Danny Green says Kawhi Leonard isn't leaving the Spurs any time soon.
By Christian Rivas@RadRivas May 25, 2018, 4:40pm PDT
Share All sharing options for: Danny Green says Kawhi Leonard has 'verbally' told him he's staying with the Spurs
Soobum Im-USA TODAY Sports
The Kawhi Leonard saga in San Antonio seems to be nearing a conclusion, and despite rumors that have said otherwise, it doesn't look the it ends with Leonard with the Los Angeles Lakers.
Following reports that the Spurs are planning to meet with Leonard and discuss a super max contract extension, Danny Green hopped on ESPN's "Get Up" to provide some clarity on the two-time Defensive Player of the Year's future with the Spurs.
"It's up in the air right now, but I think he wants to be in San Antonio," Green said. "He let me know that. He's let me know verbally he wanted to be there so we'll see what happens."
Leonard has kept a low profile since going down with a right quad injury in early January however, in the few times he has addressed his complicated situation with the Spurs, Leonard has made it clear he doesn't plan on leaving the organization.
Kawhi just spoke and said he wants to finish his career as a Spur.
— Michael C. Wright (@mikecwright) March 7, 2018
While it's not impossible for Leonard to be in play for the Lakers this summer, it's certainly looking less likely. According to Kevin O'Connor of the Ringer, the Spurs "won't settle for anything less than a grand-slam offer" in exchange for Leonard, and for a team coming off of their first 35-plus win season in five years, the Lakers would be wise not to make an enormous offer for a player that might be injured or could walk in unrestricted free agency in 2019.
Luckily, the Lakers will have no shortage of options in free agency with names like Paul George, LeBron James, Chris Paul, Kevin Durant and DeMarcus Cousins all expected to hit the open market this summer. Leonard might spend the remainder of his career in San Antonio, but he'll have to go through the Lakers before adding another championship to his already impressive resume.

Studio Museum in Harlem – Artists of color
Last checked: Nov 23rd, 2020 | By: Geoffrey Dunbar
This lesser known museum has closed because they are rebuilding, from the ground up. It is a museum that you are likely to find only in New York City, as it focusses on local, national and international artists of African descent and other work inspired by black culture.
Studio Museum 127 is their temporary space located at 429 West 127th Street between Amsterdam and Convent Avenues. Hours are Thursday through Sunday, 12 to 6 pm.
The website now redirects patrons to the various neighbourhood locations of their temporary exhibition spaces. I think this is a really good time for out of towners to go, because a visit will force you to wander 125th street and other major corridors of Harlem in a way that you might not do otherwise.
Among their special events is the film series "I Remember Harlem", a film by Bill Miles covering Harlem during the 1930s, a time when nearly all the clubs that made Harlem famous were in full swing.
If you ask, staff will direct you to commercial galleries specializing in art by African American artists, or representing specific black artists.
For another authentic Harlem experience, read about free jazz at the American Legion, where a good thing just keeps going.

So who would you take him to? The president of our country? A five star general? A captain of industry? Oprah?
In our day and age leaders are those who have their hands on the instruments of power. They bark out orders. They make demands. They enforce their will.
Sometimes they write autobiographies about how they rose to power, how they beat others out of that position by the force of their personalities. Sometimes this attitude seeps into the church, too, and it causes division.
But Paul tells the Philippian church how Jesus came to power. He was "highly exalted," was given a "name that is above every name," and we are told that "every knee will bow" to him (Philippians 2:8-10). Even presidents, captains of industry, five star generals and Oprah.
And how did he get to this exalted position? By humbling himself. In God's universe, the way to glory is humility, the path to leadership is service, the way up is down.
Down on our knees. Down in our attitudes. Down to serve. If the death of Jesus does not humble us, nothing will. On Sunday we gather as humble sinners and servants, deeply in need of what he offered that day. There is no place for pride, or demands to have our way. At the foot of the cross, the only place to go is down. Down to our knees in gratitude.

You need a new 65" TV, right?
Are you not entertained? That's probably because you could use a new TV. Luckily, it's Black Friday, the day when retailers discount many of its products. Today's annual retail holiday can get you some sweet deals on televisions, and we have the round up of every deal available today.
For many people, this is the perfect time to buy a new television, as most retailers have some pretty deep discounts on all their TVs during this time. Whether you're looking for a huge new 4K smart TV or something smaller and cheaper to give away as a gift, stores like Best Buy, Target, Kohl's, Meijer, and more have them available for the upcoming Black Friday.
There are a few 65" televisions available this Black Friday, three of which can be found at Target. Two of these are from Samsung, both of which are 4K and smart TVs. One is $650 and the curved one is $800. Additionally, there is an LG 4K smart TV for $750. All of these are doorbuster deals, so it's first come, first served when Target opens on on Thursday, November 22 at 5PM. The store will close at 1AM on Friday, November 23, then re-open at 7AM that morning. However, you may want to check with your local stores, as times may vary.
If you are in the market for something small and cheap, there are a few HDTVs for under $200. At Meijer, there is a Element 55" Smart Roku 4K UHD TV for $200; however, it's part of the store's doorbuster deals, so supplies will be limited, but the deals will be good Thursday, November 22 at 6 AM-Friday, November 23. Again, check with your local stores to see if opening times vary.
Check out all the TV deals from this year's Black Friday circulars, so far. If you're on the lookout for more huge deals, check out our round-up of all the Black Friday specials.

Just In: Prison authorities release PDP former spokesman, Metuh, after 10 months
JUST IN: FG increases drivers' licenses, number plate…
Three Sokoto medical workers bag two-year jail term over…
NECO realeses 2020 SSCE results, six months after…
By The Guild	 Last updated Dec 24, 2020
The Nigerian Correctional Service (NCS) has discharged Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) former National Publicity Secretary, Olisa Metuh, from Kuje prisons in Abuja, after a Court of Appeal upturned his conviction following review of the money laundering allegation against him.
As gathered, the correction service released Metuh from prison, where he had been since February 25, 2020 after a Federal High court sentenced him to a seven-year jail term, at about 16.46 p.m on Thursday.
As gathered, the former publicity secretary left the prison premises eight days after the Appeal Court upturned the judgement delivered by Justice Okon Abang of the Federal High court and ordered a fresh trial of the case.
Although the correction service was yet to release statement on his discharge, but, Metuh, in an interview with newsmen, said that he was released by the authorities.
At the court, a three-man panel of Appeal court led by Justice Stephen Adah, unanimously held that the judgement of the Federal High Court was tainted with bias and therefore should not be allowed to stand.
The judges further ruled that the conviction of Metuh and his company, Destra Investment Limited were faulty and argued that a fresh trial would further set the records right.
Adah held that the utterances of the trial judge during the course of the trial further established that he was biased against the convicts, an act that was not in conformity with the law.
He directed that the case file be sent back to the Chief Judge of the Federal High Court for reassignment to another judge other than Justice Abang.
It would be recalled that Abang had earlier in the year sentenced Metuh to seven years imprisonment for allegedly receiving N400 million from the office of the then National Security Adviser, Colonel Sambo Dasuki (retd) under the administration of former President, Goodluck Jonathan.

Where does the logic go?
There's a trend in data centric applications. The trend is to move more and more of the contraints and logic out of the database software, and into the application code.
The trend results from the fact that the software technology industry is populated and driven largely by humans, and thus subject to trends and irrational behavior. To understand what's going on today requires a bit of perspective in the history of databases, and their parallel development with programming languages.
SQL is the IE6 of the database languages world. It breaks many of the rules of the relational model- in other words, it's a little bit like a calculator that performs multiplication incorrectly, and doesn't have a minus operator. SQL is not complete enough to be a real solution. It was never developed beyond the prototype stage, and was never meant to be used in industrial settings. But then it was naively used by oracle, which turned out to be a "killer app", SQL became industry standard instead of its technically superior competitors, and the rest is history. SQL's syntax is based around a set of command line tabular data processing tools, and COBOL. Full of bugs, inconsistencies, and a mishmash proprietary versions and features that don't have a grounding in math or logic, results in a situation where it really is unclear what goes where.
Regarding the recent proliferation of ORMs: misguided and ill thought out attempts to patch over the obvious deficiencies of SQL. Database triggers and procedures are another misfeature trying to patch over SQL's problems.
If history had played out in a logical and orderly way, the answer to this question would be simple: Just follow the rules of the relational model and everything will work itself out. Unfortunately, the rules of the relational model don't fit cleanly into the current crop of SQL based DBMS's, so some application level fiddling, or triggers, or whatever other stupid patch is unfortunately necessary, and it ends up being a matter of subjective opinion, rather than reasoned argument, which stupid hack you use.
So the real answer is to just follow the relational model as close as you can, and then fudge it the rest of the way. Put the logic in the application if you're the only one using the db, and you need to keep all your source code in a version repository. If multiple applications are likely to use the database, make the DB as bullet proof and self sufficient as it can be- The main goal here is to ensure that the data remains consistent.

Theres nothing intrinsically wrong with SQL - its a tool like any other that should be used for the purposes it was intended for.
You're also confusing structured databases that provide an SQL interface to the data they store, with SQL the language.
As for ORM, it attempts to solve the problem of the mis-match between the paradigm of OOP and relational data. No matter how much better you think the "true" relational model is over current implementations, it still differs from that of OO and hence there will always be a need to translate one to the other. You could of course just forget about storing your data in the magical relational data model and then you wouldn't have to worry about ORM at all.

There's no impedence mismatch between the relational model, and object oriented programming. The impedence mismatch is between SQL and OOP, and the logically incomplete datastores that SQL interfaces with.
There *is* something intrinsically wrong with SQL. There is something called the "Relational Algebra", and something else called "Relational Calculous". SQL is based around the latter, but it is not a complete implementation, and it breaks certain essential rules by allowing the presence of "null", allowing duplicates in structures which are meant to be unordered sets, and by making the order of operations significant. In SQL, extremely useful laws of associativity which exist in the relational model, do not exist, and are not dependable in SQL based databases.
ORM wouldn't be necessary if there were any implementations of the relational model. You could just store your objects directly as a value in a tuple. This is something that we've had some friction about in the past- But the reason this would work is that a class is exactly analogous to a data type, and the relational model imposes no restrictions on what data types you can define as storable in a value.
SQL is "worse-is-better". SQL is a "New Jersey" design, while "QUEL" was the MIT design.
http://www.jwz.org/doc/worse-is-better.html
The last time we had this conversation you argued that classes are not the same thing as types, because they also include methods.
I would argue though, that this is not a distinguishing feature, because types also package "methods", except that they're usually called "operators".
Are there any other features of classes which could significantly distinguish them from types?
One may also ask how you would query such a data store. Since the data store would contain a definition of the class, it would also contain its methods/operators.
SELECT job, ordernumber FROM orders where job.category.equals("shipping") and ordernumber > 25
This probably looks silly, but it's certainly possible, and the relational model allows this. Why hasn't anyone ever implemented it?
And of course you don't have to take my word for it. Give it a try:
http://dbappbuilder.sourceforge.net/Rel.php
How can there be no mismatch between the them, when 2 of the core faults of "SQL" DBs that you object too: nulls and duplicate tuples/objects are perfectly acceptably in OOP.
Also as I said in my orginal comment - it is unwise to confuse SQL the language with the concept of a structured datastore, which is acutlly what "sql" databse applciations really are. There is nothing intrisinically linking the 2 - take note of the fact that Amazons simpledb service now provides a SQL interface - but is that service now suddenly morphed magically into a "SQL db" ?
"Also as I said in my orginal comment - it is unwise to confuse SQL the language with the concept of a structured datastore, which is acutlly what "sql" databse applciations really are."
It is the SQL standard which expects these relational model violations. Even if you have a perfectly relational store, you have to somehow "emulate" nulls, and duplicates for the sake of conforming to the SQL standard, for the SQL interface. That's how I understand the situation anyway. If you didn't, you wouldn't be able to port scripts from one DB to another, because you'd end up with a vastly different schema, produced from the same source code. Or even just a giant error message. Which kind of defeats the purpose of SQL being a uniform interface, doesn't it?
"How can there be no mismatch between the them, when 2 of the core faults of "SQL" DBs that you object too: nulls and duplicate tuples/objects are perfectly acceptably in OOP."
Because percieved mismatch comes from the same false analogy that I'm building up in my JSON/XML series. Some otherwise smart guys walked up to the problem of storing objects in a relational database, and started with the logical thing: Looking for analogies and similarities between the datastructures in an OOP language, and the data structures in a relational database. They just came to the wrong conclusion by equating ROWS with object instances, and table headers with classes. Yes, there is an impedence mismatch there, but that's because you made a mistake.
However, when you come to the correct conclusion, that classes are analogous to TYPES, and object instances are analogous to attribute values, then there is no mismatch. Yes, an object can have a null in it, if its type defines that it can have a null. But look at it from this perspective:
A relation is basically a predicate. A relation header is semantically a statement of fact, with some madlibs style blanks in it. Each tuple row is meant to fill in the blanks of that predicate. so for example....
My product has id D and it is N inches wide and M inches tall and it is named X and belongs to product range Y
nulls don't make sense because it's like stating as FACT:
My product has id 6 and it is I DON'T KNOW inches wide, and I DON'T KNOW inches tall, it is named SCREWDRIVER and belongs to product range TOOLS
Now that's ridiculous. If you don't know the answer, then it's not a fact, and it shouldn't be in the DB. Its presence in the DB actually leads to a great number of bugs and various unexpected behavior.
Duplicates don't make sense for the same reason. It's like stating as FACT the same thing twice. It's redundant, and again, its presence causes problems.
now if you needed to store that information in the database, and you truly don't know how wide or tall that object is, you would instead put this peice of information into the DB
My product has id 6 and it is named SCREWDRIVER and belongs to product range TOOL
and you would put product dimensions in seperately.
This all makes sense to me, but mostly because I've taken a class in logic. I'm not sure that I would have been quite as convinced by this argument if I hadn't. But you know, logic is an important thing in a computer program. In fact, it's everything, and if the basis of your program is a system that screwed up in logic 101, then it doesn't bode well for the rest of the system.
Unfortunately, as I noted, if you're using an SQL interface- Even on a system that has any arbitrary kind of data store- The SQL standard necessitates the presence or emulation of these bugs, unfortunately. It's necessary for interoperability. If you don't emulate those things, why bother with the SQL interface to begin with?
You'd never be able to import any database which happens to have a null or duplicate row. It would just vomit at you, or transform your data into something you don't recognize, and you'd get a bunch of programmers throwing a hissy fit.
"Now that's ridiculous. If you don't know the answer, then it's not a fact, and it shouldn't be in the DB. Its presence in the DB actually leads to a great number of bugs and various unexpected behavior. "
a lot of this problem comes from the fact that it's not clear what sort of "I don't know" null represents. Does the product not have any dimensions? Does it have dimensions but you just don't know what they are? Do you know what they are but you haven't entered them into the database yet?
I just spotted this, but there's a logical fallacy in this question. The NULL in object oriented programming is not the same as NULL in an SQL database. They mean vastly different things.

I am beyond thrilled to have my new tablet thanks to my wonderful husband! He gave it to me Friday while we were out at Barnes and Nobles. Yes, there was much squeeing involved and happiness.
I played with it a good chunk Friday night and very little yesterday because I completely ran out of energy and was forced by my body to rest even though I didn't want to. Today was a complete down day where I slept many hours. Tomorrow will, hopefully be better.
Having something light enough to work with while sitting in the living room beside my husband while he plays a game feels like a new freedom has been given to me. Blogging while out and about has now been given to me.
Having a tool that helps me write, take notes, and organize thoughts when it's impossible to write with pen and paper – such as riding the bus and Wheels – when inspiration strikes, is invaluable!
Toys are good for the spirit, and I have often envied the convenience of a tablet.

US employers continued to hire at a robust pace in March, a sign the world's largest economy was gaining momentum after an unusually harsh winter.
Employers added 192,000 payrolls last month, after a revised 197,000 increase in February, the Labor Department reported today in Washington. A panel of economists surveyed by Reuters forecast an increase of 200,000 last month. Government data were in line with the earlier ADP estimate, which showed private payrolls increased by 191,000.
The unemployment rate remained unchanged at 6.7 percent as more workers entered the labour market.
January nonfarm payrolls were revised upward from 129,000 to 144,000. The initial February estimate was 175,000, government data showed.
Employment growth over the past two months surpassed the 2013 monthly average of 189,000, a sign employers were ramping up after a weather-induced slowdown. The labour force participation rate, which monitors the numbers of workers employed or actively searching for work, rose to a six month high of 63.2 percent in February. The participation rate was little changed in March.
Average hourly earnings for private payroll employees were unchanged in March. Economists expected earnings to increase 0.2 percent after rising 0.4 percent the previous month. Compared to the previous 12 months, average hourly earnings were 2.1 percent higher, official data showed.
The steady pace of job creation in February and March should allow the Federal Reserve to move forward with stimulus cuts, a process that was first initiated in December. While the jobless rate has been de-emphasized in recent months, strong employment data reaffirms the central bank's plan of eliminating monetary easing this year. However, existing slack in the labour market should keep interest rates at record lows until sometime next year.

This article focuses on Wentzel van Huyssteen's work on theological anthropology, attending especially to his emphasis on the temporal and narrative dimension of personal identity. In this regard, Van Huyssteen draws on the thought of Paul Ricoeur, including his view that memory is the gateway to the self. With this in mind, the first part of the article highlights some key features of Van Huyssteen's engagement the last decade or two with the question what it means to be human, namely the affirmation of interdisciplinarity, embodiment and vulnerability. The argument is put forward that Van Huyssteen's work invites and displays the need to uphold the interconnections between embodiment, memory, vulnerability, imagination and empathy. It is furthermore claimed that his constructive proposals 'in search of self' should be seen as inextricably connected with its crucial ethical and theological motivation and contours.
Intradisciplinary and/or interdisciplinary implications: This article focuses on the South African theologian Wentzel van Huyssteen's work on theological anthropology. He is internationally renowned, and this article discusses key features of his views and brings it into conversation with the work of the philosopher Paul Ricoeur and perspectives from memory studies. As such, it presents a novel engagement that can enrich systematic theological discourse.

Q: CreateJS Will Not Load I don't know what is wrong with my code. I am very new to javascript. Sometimes createjs will work and other times it doesn't. It doesn't make sense because I am copying exact code from other people's tutorials.
<!DOCTYPE html>

<html>
<head>
    <title></title>
    <script src = "http://code.createjs.com/createjs-2013.12.12.min.js"></script>

    <script>
        var stage;

        function init(){
            stage = new createjs.Stage("myCanvas");

            var ball = new createjs.Shape();
            ball.graphics.beginFill("000000").drawCircle(0,0,50);
            ball.x = 50;
            ball.y = 200;

            stage.addChild(ball);
        }
    </script>
</head>

<body onload = "init()">
    <canvas id = "myCanvas" width = "500" height = "500">
    </canvas>
</body>
</html>

A: Even if you already solved your problem, I'll improve your code a little bit. You don't need to mark this as the correct answer since you solved it by yourself.

<html>
<head>
    <title>Example</title>
    <script src="http://code.createjs.com/createjs-2013.12.12.min.js"></script>

    <script>
        var stage;

        function init(){
            stage = new createjs.Stage("myCanvas");

            var ball = new createjs.Shape();
            ball.graphics.beginFill("000000").drawCircle(0,0,50);
            ball.x = 50;
            ball.y = 200;
            ball.cache(-50, -50, 100, 100); // -50 is -radius, 100 is radius*2

            stage.addChild(ball);
            stage.update();
        }
    </script>
</head>

<body onload="init()">
    <canvas id="myCanvas" width="500" height="500">Do you even HTML5?</canvas>
</body>
</html>

*

*First, I've added a title to your document, which is required to be valid HTML5. You can change it to whatever you want.

*Also, I cached your ball object, so now it's an image instead of a shape and the CPU will not need to redraw it every time the stage is updated. It's a big performance improvement.

*Finally, I also added a fallback text if the HTML5 canvas isn't supported ("Do you even HTML5?"). It's between the <canvas> and </canvas> tags, and you can change it to whatever you like.

A: I see nowhere where you actually call update() on the stage to make it draw. In fact, the most puzzling thing is why you say this code even does work sometimes. It should not show anything on screen at all.

Edit: I see you make a comment where you say you figured this out. Nevermind then.
