Aidan Gallagher: reaching change-makers
Aidan Gallagher is always concerned about environmental and social issues. Despite being one of the most famous artists of this generation, he uses his media resources to express himself, share with his loyal fans, and, above all, to speak out about the importance of taking care of ourselves and save the planet one day at a time.
You probably saw him in Modern Family; maybe you have been following his career since the first time you watched the Nickelodeon TV show Nicky, Ricky, Dicky & Dawn; possibly, you watch his videos and enjoy his music; or perhaps, you came to fall for him when the Netflix hit drama The Umbrella Academy took over the world and you found out the awesomeness of Number Five; even so, Aidan Gallagher shows himself as a simple teenager who has lots of love to share and wants you to join him and many others in this movement of people who are working for making the Earth a better place.
He is a really busy person, but I had the privilege of interviewing him for this issue of Vanity Teen; therefore, I invite you to keep reading this article, find out more about him, and share the nice message he has for all of us.
Aidan Gallagher by ©Rob Gallagher 2021
Vanity Teen : I cannot tell you how important it is for me to know people like you (young and with a strong media-based platform) talk about environmental issues. I mean, many young guys want to speak up about important topics like that one, and some adults think they are too young to give any advice due to their lack of experience, or some others sustain that what those teens say have been scripted or somehow planned for others. Nevertheless, when referring to you, many people say phrases like "the youngest Goodwill Ambassador", and aware that is not a bad thing, my question is this: what is it like to be young and be taken seriously?
I suppose it would be gratifying for any teenager seeing as during the first few years of your life you can often feel like you have to prove yourself. But peoples' impression of me is much less concerning than the threats that our world is facing. So I would say it feels good, but I'd much rather people take the message seriously than the source
VT: How have you managed to share your environmental and social concerns when most of the people who contact you want to know more and more about The Umbrella Academy?
It's because of the fact that most people my age don't think about environmental concerns that I'm a UN Ambassador. It means that there's a large portion of uninitiated change-makers that I have the power to reach.
VT: I have seen you are really committed to informing your followers not only about the environment and healthy eating habits but about the COVID-19 and where they could find help. How the pandemic affected you personally? And what can you tell those who are struggling with mental-health-related issues after the coronavirus restrictions and the lockdown began?
I think it's affected me mentally rather than physically though I was lucky enough to find a cruising altitude within the first couple of months. I know people that have been affected by it and I'm concerned with the lack of safety my peer group is willing to engage in. I see a lot of people my age still going out to parties and hanging out with friends without adopting any safety precautions. There are also those who adopt an irresponsibly relaxed approach to "staying safe" ̶ opting for a mask under the chin, a mask with gaps around the nose, or no eye protection. A lot of people my age think that they're invulnerable and that this pandemic is something that doesn't pertain to them. This is a life-altering health concern that affects them and everyone they come into contact with, and a lot of them are treating it with the level of concern of wearing a helmet when riding a bike (i.e., they think it's a passive thing that they might be able to get away with). Ignorance (or in some cases the conscious choice of ignorance), is an incredibly selfish standpoint that a lot of people my age are unfortunately taking.
VT: You have one of the most famous faces nowadays, yet you decided to change your profile picture on social networks and put a message to remember everyone that Black Lives Matter. What motivates you to take actions like that?
As someone in a position of immense privilege, I felt it was my responsibility to show support for the BLM movement. I thought changing the profile pic would have the greatest amount of impact as fan accounts would subsequently change their profile pic.
VT: What do you think about representation and media?
I think diverse representation promotes diverse ideas. Furthermore, you can't really have any type of innovation in any field without new seeds put forth. The implication of that, in terms of confidence and ambition for all peoples, is unmeasurable so I think it's very important.
VT: Let us talk about your music. What are the perks and the most difficult parts of being almost in total control of the production and the creative process of your music projects?
The perks are that I can get much closer to what's in my head, which means at the end of the day I'm much more artistically satisfied and confident in my work. The downside is that my inexperience may mean that I can't always articulate the ideas that are in my head with accuracy.
VT: Many teenagers see you as an inspiration, and I have noticed you use transparency as a form of encouragement. I mean, you talk to your fans about the importance of planning and having a schedule, you also explain how you do to create your own content and tell them where they can find some resources. Even though, you make it look like dedicating yourself to arts is kind of easy. What would you tell every young person out there about commitment and self-discipline?
I've always found things that I love to be incredibly easy to do, so I don't know that I'm the most disciplined when it comes to the things I love — I just love doing them.
VT: Among other things, you sing, you act and you direct your own videos; do you picture yourself doing these activities for the rest of your life?
I'd like to for as long as I can.
VT: Could you tell us what to expect from your music projects this 2021?
Well, I'll be shooting The Umbrella Academy Season 3 this year, so I expect that I'll be writing more than anything else.
VT: Anything else you would like to share with Vanity Teen?
We are living in a global pandemic. The abnormality and seriousness of that fact can often be watered down by the duration to which this pandemic lasts. We must remember how deadly and contagious this virus is and we must think beyond just ourselves in our chosen level of caution.
Those of us in the privileged position of being able to self-quarantine inside our homes have a moral and communal obligation to do so, as these safety precautions are often the difference between life and death for the people we know, the strangers we don't, and ourselves. Millions of people have died and will continue to die of COVID until there is widespread distribution of a vaccine. But until that happens, we must all treat it with the same level of caution as we did those first few weeks. The pandemic is now worse than it's ever been, and we should treat it as such.
We all can do our part to ensure the safety of others. United we stand, divided we fall.
Yes, Aidan Gallagher is a great actor, such a talented musician, and nobody can deny it; but during this time, I came to know he is even a kinder person than we can imagine. I hope his passion for the environment keeps us motivated to love one another and let us be that generation who really cares and stands up for what really matters.

Filmmaking is no easy task, especially when you're on a budget.
At KitSplit, we're doing all we can to democratize filmmaking by making professional equipment rentals affordable for all types of projects and budgets. We're also constantly learning about, and connecting filmmakers to, awesome resources.
Below we've rounded up a list of more than 50 free or inexpensive resources available across the great world wide web! We divided this list into nine categories: Music, Transcription, Advice + Coaching, Images, Footage, Cinematography Web Apps & Software, Work Forms & Finances, Downloadables, and Interactive. Did we miss an amazing free (or affordable) resource that should be on here? Contact us!
Want to learn about more awesome resources for filmmakers? Subscribe to our newsletter!
Free Music Archive – FMA is now powered by KitSplit!
Free Music Archive is just what it sounds like…a vast archive of free (yes free!) music, and one of our favorite music resources for editing—especially if you're on a low or nonexistent budget. There is a ton of great stuff here, though it may take a little digging. And make sure to check the license before you list a song—some licenses are more lenient than others.
Audio Jungle is just one of a slew of 'ecosystems' (read: Code Canyon, Theme Forest, Graphic River and so on) brought to you by Envato Market. These services bring sometimes free, sometimes low-cost content that can be used in your projects. Audio Jungle also has a wide selection of music available royalty free for $1 per track.
We discovered The Podington Bear, a musical artist, a while ago on Free Music Archive. They have a vast collection of beautiful instrumental songs—with a wide range of moods—that work well to score videos or short films. Turns out they have their own site with all of their music and a really nice filtering system! Make sure to read about licensing—you may need to pay but the prices are very affordable. Pricing depends on use case and project budget.
Ok, so Musicbed isn't exactly free but it is truly an amazing resource for filmmakers looking to use indie music and pay their dues to the artists. Tracks run about $50 each but with each purchase you fully license the material. Sometimes, big name music pops up on the site for access, so it is certainly worth having on your radar no matter how teeny your budget.
Audio Network has a massive database of 140,000+ tracks that you purchase for $9.99 each to use for personal or student projects. For professional use, the tracks will run you $99 each.
Jingle Punks is a super inexpensive resource for licensed music from great independent artists. Support artists while saving a few bucks? Yes please!
Rev is a pretty neat company located in San Francisco that offers transcription, subtitles, captions and translation services at affordable prices. They work with freelancers with the aim of giving their employees the freedom to work from home but the tools to develop an unbeatably speedy workflow. They offer transcription and captions at $1 per minute, subtitles for $7.50 per minute and translation at 10 cents per word. We've used their services and in our experience, they're quite speedy and reliable.
Transcription Divas is solely a transcription service that guarantees on-time delivery and a transcript that will exceed U.S. courtroom standards of accuracy. Transcript Divas is $1.29 per minute of recording (for standard interviews). The Divas are a reliable source for top-notch material. We've used them, too, and always been happy with the results.
Trint is different from its competitors in that its transcriptions are generated by robots, not humans. For this reason, Trint is far less pricey than its competitors ($10 for an hour long interview), but may be less reliable.
At .89 per minute for creating closed captioned titles and $7 per minute for subtitles, iScribed is an audio and video transcription service that allows you to convert audio data into text data quickly and pain free!
Verbal Link doesn't provide an exact price for their subtitling services, but they provide you with a synchronized text in the language of your choice, offer multiple formats, and will even add the subtitles to your video!
TranscribeFiles makes transcribing files, documents, audio, and video files easy–and with services starting at .80¢ an per minute it's super affordable!

Archive.org is easily one of our favorite, and most-used resources for free video footage. It's a non-profit library with a vast, easily navigable library of public domain footage (as well as books, movies, music, images and more). Lots of great resources if, say, you need historical footage for a specific event, or generic footage of something random like phones ringing. We especially like The Prelinger Archives, "a collection of films relating to U.S. cultural history, the evolution of the American landscape, everyday life and social history" and endlessly useful resource.

Our animations are free to use in your video production.' Sounds good to us! They have a great selection of video loops and animations for background graphics (think credits stuff).

From the Flat Files: Platinum Recording - Prints by Kevin O'Connell, James Pitts, & Nick Brandt
photo-eye Gallery From the Flat Files: Platinum Recording - Prints by Kevin O'Connell, James Pitts, & Nick Brandt "The prince of all media" — is how Alfred Stieglitz once referred to the platinum printing process. Indeed, platinum printing lives up to this moniker as it is one of the oldest, most refined, and stable of all black and white procedures in photographic history. Here at photo-eye Gallery we are proud to represent a few photographers who print with this noble metal including: James Pitts, Kevin O'Connell, and Nick Brandt.
Nick Brandt – Ostrich Egg Abandoned, Amboseli, 2007
28x36 inch Platinum Print
"The prince of all media" — is how Alfred Stieglitz, Photo-Secessionist and founder of Camera Work, once referred to the platinum printing process. Indeed, platinum printing lives up to this moniker as it is one of the oldest, most refined, and stable of all black and white procedures in photographic history.
Like most other alternative photographic processes, platinum's roots stretch back into the nineteenth century. Born of noble metals, platinum prints became prominent among photographers in the late 1800s and early 1900s as they sought to elevate photography's artistic status by creating images both elegant and handmade. Therefore, platinum images continue to carry a painterly and dramatic legacy.
Kevin O'Connell –Chord 12-9, 2000,
6x4 inch Platinum/Palladium Print
The platinum printing technique consists of hand-sensitizing fine cotton rag paper with a custom emulsion cocktail built specifically for each image. Once dry, negatives are laid against the paper and contact printed via a UV light source — such as the sun. The procedure is specific, peculiar, and laborious, with a single platinum print taking up to eight hours to render. Although complicated, the aesthetic and archival benefits of using platinum materials is astonishing. Compared to contemporary printing procedures, platinum prints exhibit a long and graceful tonal range, deep luscious blacks, a sense of three-dimensionality, and unique luminous quality. These traits exist in part because, unlike other prints, the emulsion is embedded in the paper instead of floating on top the way a silver gelatin or pigment print might. When properly treated, platinum prints are also some of the most permanent manmade objects ever produced, and can last thousands of years. Today, the platinum printing process enjoys a popularity among dedicated fine artists, and here at photo-eye Gallery we are proud to represent a few photographers who print with this noble metal including: James Pitts, Kevin O'Connell, and Nick Brandt.
Kevin O'Connell – Jet Trail #4, 2001
Soft, sombre, vast, and graphic, Kevin O'Connell's Plains depicts a rarely seen side of Colorado. Bathed in a nearly golden tone, the flat western land is carved by agriculture, staccatoed with clouds, and punctuated by lone man-made constructions. Elegant and otherworldly, O'Connell's 5x7 inch prints exude cautious serenity, mystery, and awe. See the complete portfolio.
James Pitts – Peony Flowers and Bud
Using a large format camera, James Pitts photographs flowers in a human context. Cut from their natural environment and primped for home display, these objectified blooms speak obliquely, but poignantly, about culture's desires to examine, arrange, and beautify. These immaculately detailed prints live in luscious warm mid-tones and long subtle gradations. See all of the images in James' Flowers portfolio on the photo-eye gallery website.
Nick Brandt – Gorilla on Rock, Parc des Volcans, 2008
28 x 32 inch Platinum Print
What makes Nick Brandt's platinum editions exceptional is their scale. Bold and triumphant, Brandt's prints sit at an astonishing 28x36 inches. As the platinum process necessitates contact printing this means a negative of the same size must first be produced. For Brandt, form meets function in the Platinum Edition as the precious metal and monumental scale echo the iconic, stirring, yet tragically vanishing world of East Africa. Currently, photo-eye Gallery has Ostrich Egg Abandoned, Amboseli, 2007 in house, and Brandt is expected to release two new Platinum Edition images this September – be sure to check back with the Gallery for updates.

Medical tourism is the fastest growing sector in our country. The sector has experienced 30% of annual growth rate. Every year about 150,000 foreigners throng India for medical purpose because of the availability of less cost healthcare procedures. Apart from reduced cost, Indian medical tourism carries several advantages including availability of the latest and advanced medical technologies, logarithmic acquiescence on international standards of quality and above all, the least language barrier. Our Indian government is keen to improve infrastructure facilities in order to enhance country's growth in field of medical tourism. There are lots of modifications in tourist visas in order to ease the travel procedures for patients. Noida, which acts as hot spot for medical tourism, has recruited many language translators to make the foreign patients (especially from African countries) feel more comfortable.
Reports claim that medical expenses in our country are almost ten times less than cost in United States of America and Great Britain. The most commonly preferred treatment in India by foreign nationals includes bone-marrow transplantation, alternative medicine, cardiac bypass, hip replacement, and eye surgery. India is very popular for specific heart surgery, hip resurfacing, and various other areas of advanced medicine.
The less cost for treatment does not mean less healthcare standards. Any patient who is likely to travel India should trace out optimal Doctor-Hospital combination. This can be taken care by various professional institutions or facilitators who can guide patients to identify their preferred combination. At the end of treatment, patient can either recover in hospital or can prefer a paid accommodation near by the hospital. There are patients who continue their treatment via telemedicine.
India hosts thousands of Skilled and powerful Physicians and numerous nurse practitioners. In the past twenty years, India has boomed in the economic growth leading to the development of medical amenities and also infrastructure which is incomparable with other western nations. India is the only destination for any complex medical treatment which goes in hand with high grade quality service, facilities, and also professional skills. Most renowned hospitals possess their own customer service desk to guide patient's right from their initial phone call. They serve as a potential source of information about various hospitals and work together with the client to ensure best staff and facilities for a speedy recovery. Indian specialists stay abreast of all current development in their specific field. These medical specialists' co-ordinate with travel agents who in turn facilitate a vocational trip and ensure speed up recovery of the patient. Patients recover in a short duration of time with increased success rate because of improved practices to enhance physical, mental, and emotional well being. There are also combined packages available with best leading regiments of Meditation, yoga and Ayurveda which enhance the healing process and make body and mind in same pace.
The Chennai city has crowned to be India's health capital, with mushroom growth of various multi and super specialty hospitals catering the needs of 150 foreign internationals every day. About 45 percent of medical tourist throng Chennai where there is low cost medication, absence of any waiting period and various advanced facilities. Chennai's dental clinics play a significant role in attracting dental patients from all around the world.
According to Dr. K M Cherian, a leading Indian cardiac surgeon, India will continue to remain top in the field of medical tourism for at least another ten more years despite sincere attempts from China and Japan as Indian hospitals possess advantages of English language and skilled manpower.

EXERCISE AND OBESITY: WHERE DO WE BEGIN?
With over half Australian adults and a quarter of Australian children reported as being overweight or living with obesity, the importance of understanding how to exercise appropriately is becoming more and more relevant.
It is well documented that exercise is vital for our physical and mental health and wellbeing. Exercise has been shown to reduce the risk of many chronic diseases such as Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM), osteoarthritis (OA) and Cardiovascular Disease (CVD).
We've all been told we need to eat well and exercise to live healthier, longer lives but where do we start? Commencing an exercise program for the first time can be very daunting and overwhelming. What exercise is best for me? How much exercise do I need to do to get health benefits? What exercise is safe? How do I avoid injuries? These are just some of the many questions that may pop to mind when we are told we need to commence an exercise program.
Low impact aerobic exercise is recommended when commencing exercise, gentle walking on flat ground is the best place to start!
Start by increasing the time and then distance. Slowly building up exercise as tolerated will reduce the risk of injuries.
Research shows resistance training 2-3 times per week combined with aerobic exercise is optimal for weight management. Again, start slow with some body weight exercises for example Sit to Stands, wall push-ups and calf raises. Build up to resisted exercises. If you have not participated in resistance exercise before it is recommended you seek advice from an Accredited Exercise Physiologist (AEP) for an appropriate resistance training program and assistance with technique.
It is recommended that Australian Adults partake in some form of physical activity most days of the week and reduce time spend being sedentary. Aim for 150-300 minutes of moderate intensity exercise per week (Australia's Physical Activity and Sedentary Behaviours Guidelines).
Exercise should become a part of your daily routine and you should be able to find fulfillment and enjoyment in exercise. Pick the activities you enjoy, make exercise fun and social.


The pain in her arm overwhelmed her but she took some comfort in the news Wallace offered. She might see the man responsible for her dad's death. What would she do? She felt terror rise up from the pit of her stomach. Was she prepared to kill him? The idea seemed remote until now.
She had enjoyed thing about how she would take care of Todd. The thinking and plotting revenge made her feel better. Now it looked like she was near the end of the trip.
She wondered if she should walk back a few steps and explore some other avenues. It felt good to think about the ways to torture or kill Todd Loudin. The thoughts gave her power. Now she shuddered. Maybe this revenge plotting had made her into an animal too?
The wheelchair bounced over a crack and sent a shock through her arm that brought her to the present.
"Why don't you call Mr. Loudin now?" Cindy said.
Wallace lifted her out of the chair. She let her headrest on his shoulder as he placed her in the car.
Cindy smiled at their good luck.
Wallace put on her seat belt. As he walked around the car, he noticed a man wearing a hoodie watching Cindy. The man turned away to take a baby out of the arms of a woman. Wallace smiled at his paranoia. It was just another dad meeting his family.
"Too much excitement for one morning," he whispered.
The man watched Wallace as he climbed into the car and moved away from the curb. With the car out of sight, the man handed the child back to her startled mother and rushed off in the opposite direction.
Wallace and Cindy traveled northeast near the rail yard. She rubbed the bandage on her arm and tried not to think about the pain.
Wallace drove into an underpass that cut off his neighborhood from downtown and his office north of Fremont Street. He handed Cindy a water bottle and she swallowed the pill. She smoothed down her blood-soaked top.
Las Vegas a stopover. A shootout and a trip to the hospital were not in her plans.
Cindy pondered if Wallace gave in to his daughter or laid down the law. He had a strong face. However, Cindy thought he showed a soft heart. He looked after her and arranged a meeting with the man who killed her daddy. That alone made him a good man.
"I don't know what I'd say," Cindy said.
Wallace shot her a look. So that was it? Instead of coming to town to dance, Cindy came in this morning to confront Todd. This little girl thought she could stare him down and he would just admit he was a killer. Wallace had one thing right; Cindy was naive.
"Listen, Todd Loudin will never do that. He's only meeting you as a favor to me. Besides, he's not the big mastermind you have built up in your mind. He's a businessman," Wallace said. He doubted she believed him.
Wallace parked in front of his office. Cindy watched as he walked around the car to her door.
"I believe what I've been told. And Todd Loudin's a killer," she said.
Wallace let her walk into his office on her own. Enough crazy filled the morning to last him a week. Still the girl needed him. He would have to see this through.

Norman Lamont said, "The Tony and Gordon Show has become the longest running non-decision in history – some might call it a farce.
"The Chancellor tried his hardest but wasn't convincing. Try as he might the Chancellor couldn't show that the five tests have been satisfied today. If they are not satisfied today they won't be satisfied in another eighteen months time.
"This weak announcement, lacking in conviction, is the worst of all worlds – a recipe for confusion, lack of confidence, and continued infighting.
"Despite the Prime Minister's obsession with his place in history there probably won't be a referendum this Parliament. If there were, the Government wouldn't win it. The sensible course would have been to do what business wants – make a firm decision.
"The Chancellor's statement was as significant for what it didn't say as what it did. Unlike his Budget speech we weren't given a long list of how much better the British economy was performing than Europe. He didn't even mention Germany, which faces massive problems made worse by the euro.
Norman Lamont and representatives of the Bruges Group are available for interviews and quotes on the implications of the euro, the five economic tests and for comment on the current EU debate.


The Daily Press is yet another cafe in the Toa Payoh-Braddell area, a seemingly ordinary housing estate getting hipper with the opening of more third wave cafes. This cafe is just one or two blocks away from the ever-so-popular Creamier ice cream parlour, specialising in sandwiches and coffee.
They have limited bakes like your usual cakes, but not sure if it's because I went at night and hence the lack of variety.
I was there on a Saturday night and while there was only a table occupied, there was some refurbishing works going on at the back so that kinda left me with front seats to take.
A combination that sounds weird initially, this worked out quite well! While the green apple slices weren't thaaat sour, the sweetness coming from the candied bacon balanced it out. Bacon was oily as usual, sigh sometimes I wish bacons can be less oily. :/ Haha. Oh and the cheese. It'll always make a dish better! I was a little worried that the ciabatta would be a bit tough to cut, but fortunately it wasn't. But I was hoping for a bit more generous portions of apples though.
In general this sandwich was good, but I think for the price it could have been better. Prices here are a bit on the high side for sandwiches, considering that the cheapest one of mushrooms and mozarella are already $10. I got this deal on the Sugar app hence it's heavily discounted, so that's alright for me. But if I want to return, I may want to think twice, especially when there are so many places selling sandwiches.
However, I do have to give credit to them for having creativity in the types of sandwiches. Other unconventional ones they have are the Babi Pongteh and KFC sandwich. Thus I feel this place is worth a try, but whether it warrants a repeat visit is subjective.

Speed Boat Beach Up For Stakes Hat Trick In Eddie Logan
Speed Boat Beach hustles to win the Speakeasy at Santa Anita Nov. 2, 2022. (Ernie Belmonte/Past The Wire
Race Is Named For Santa Anita's Late 'Footman' Who Passed Away In 2009
Mike Willman/Santa Anita Press Box
ARCADIA, Calif.— Speed Boat Beach will look to add a third stakes win on grass for trainer Bob Baffert when he takes on seven rivals in Friday's $100,000 Eddie Logan Stakes going a mile on turf at Santa Anita Park.
Speed Boat Beach, winner of the five-furlong Speakeasy on the Santa Anita turf course in October, added another stakes triumph on Dec. 4 when edging Game Time by a half-length in the Grade III Cecil B. DeMille going a mile on grass at Del Mar. Sandwiched between those two wins was a ninth-place effort in the Grade I Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint at Keeneland on Nov. 4.
Speed Boat Beach will have a new rider on Friday as Ramon Vazquez takes over for Flavien Prat, who opts to ride eastern shipper Nagirroc for trainer Graham Motion. By Bayern, Speed Boat Beach was a $200,000 auction purchase earlier this year for owners Michael Pegram, Karl Watson and Paul Weitman.
Nagirroc comes west following a solid third-place effort in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf at Keeneland on Nov. 4. She earned entry into the Breeders' Cup one start prior when winning the Grade III Futurity on grass going six furlongs at Aqueduct. The son of Lea, who is owned by Little Red Feather and Madaket Racing, had one work at Santa Anita following his arrival.
In the DeMille, Game Time dueled with Speed Boat Beach throughout and came up just short in a game effort under Umberto Rispoli. Trained by John Sadler and owned by Hronis Racing, the Not This Time colt broke his maiden one start earlier at Santa Anita when going a mile on grass on Oct. 10.
Game Time will also have a new jockey this time. John Velazquez will replace Rispoli, who is named to ride Classical Cat for trainer Phil D'Amato.
As for Michael House's Classical Cat, he is exiting a sharp allowance win when going a mile on grass for the first time on Oct. 23 at Santa Anita. Prior to that effort, the Mendelssohn colt won his debut sprinting on dirt at Del Mar in August and came back to finish seventh in the Grade I Del Mar Futurity.
The Eddie Logan is named in honor of Santa Anita's original shoeshine attendant, who operated his shoeshine stand at The Great Race Place from its opening in 1934 until shortly before his death at the age of 98 on Jan. 31, 2009. Logan, who often referred to himself as a "Footman," was one of the most popular employees to ever work at Santa Anita.
First post time for a nine-race card on Friday is at 12 noon, with admission gates opening at 10 a.m.

Imagine the merits of a decorative surface finish possessing a strength and brilliancy and an excellence that will last to a great age. That was the vision of coloured and polished plasters depicted more than 2000 years ago in the Discourses of Vitruvius, one of the great architects of ancient Rome. Two thousand years on, Armourcoat's range of Polished Plasters combines ancient skills with modern materials and carefully refined application techniques, to create a stunning range of polished plaster finishes unsurpassed in hardness and quality.
Armourcoat's smooth polished finish is similar to the marmorino stucco, used extensively in northern Italy during the Renaissance period as an internal and external wall finish and as a background for the ornate frescoes which dominated much of the decoration of that time. It is this combination of material and technique that is now widely regarded as Venetian plaster. The final appearance of this finish is very dependent on the hand of the individual applicator, making it possible to achieve anything from a plain, lightly polished surface to a more highly burred and marblised effect.
The origins of Armourcoat's luxurious Spatulata Finish dates even further back in history. Pioneered by the Egyptians; improved by the Romans; it became known as stucco lustro veneziano by the Venetians. Traditionally it was applied in 10-15 fine coats over a background of 2-3 layers of semi-dry marmorino and finally polished with hot irons. Modern additives have greatly improved the working characteristics enabling it to be successfully applied in just 5-7 layers and polished to a glassy shine with a small steel blade or trowel. Spatulata is a unique mix of high-grade aged lime putty, micronised marble powder and special additives. For many, it is the ultimate Venetian stucco; certainly the one with the highest sheen and the most intriguing texture.
For centuries, the colour in Venetian Polished Plasters has come from natural earth pigments. Unfortunately, nature does not work to a fixed formula and using them has always been a complex business because of colour inconsistencies and variable pigment strengths. For this reason, colourists were traditionally employed for mixing and matching, turning all polished plaster recipes into expensive, bespoke finishes.

Heymann Reichmann, hebr.: Heyum Arje-Löb (geboren ca. 1809 in Rimpar bei Würzburg; gestorben vor 1877) war ein deutscher Rabbiner.

Leben und Wirken

Heymann Reichmann war der Sohn des Händlers Samson Reichmann und der Bella. 1823 ging er an die Jeschiwa von Wolf Hamburg in Fürth. Am 5. Juni 1827 legte er die Religionslehrerprüfung bei Abraham Bing in Würzburg ab. Von 1827 bis 1835 besuchte er das Gymnasium in Schweinfurt, wo er am 24. August 1835 das Abitur bestand. Am 28. Oktober desselben Jahres immatrikulierte er sich an der Julius-Maximilians-Universität Würzburg, wo er vier Semester Philosophie studierte. Im Mai 1837 legte er die Staatsprüfung in Bayreuth ab. Gleichzeitig verlieh ihm Joseph Aub das Rabbinatsdiplom (Semicha).

Danach kehrte Reichmann nach Würzburg zurück, wo er mehrere Jahre Hauslehrer war, dann ging er nach Harburg an der Elbe. Im August 1844 wurde er Hofmeister bei dem Bankier R. E. Goldschmidt in Kassel. 1846 wurde er Landesrabbiner von Mecklenburg-Strelitz in Strelitz. 1849 geriet er in Streit mit dem Vorstand der Synagoge. Ihm wurde vorgeworfen, unter der Reaktion "den Denuncianten gespielt" zu haben. Auch soll er sich von der Reform abgewandt und sich zur Orthodoxie bekehrt haben. Am 17. Februar 1850 kündigte ihm der Vorstand, was einen mehrjährigen Rechtsstreit zur Folge hatte. Am 15. August 1857 wurde er an der Universität Jena mit der Dissertation De Graecorum arte politica zum Doktor promoviert. Von ca. 1860 bis 1864 war Reichmann Rabbiner in Landsberg an der Warthe in der Provinz Brandenburg, von 1864 bis 1876 liberaler Rabbiner in Riga, Gouvernement Livland, Russisches Kaiserreich.

Reichmann starb vermutlich 1876, denn 1877 bot das Antiquariat Stuber in Würzburg seine nachgelassene Bibliothek an.

Hi, is there (now) an easier way to obtain the global spec ID of a unit in my group, or do I still need to go through the inspection system (NotifyInspect(), INSPECT_READY, and so on)?
Or to maybe phrase my question more generally, is there an easier way to obtain a group member's current spec than using the inspection procedure? Thanks.
Thanks -- that's part of the inspection system, though.
Most queried information that isn't necessary for your game to work properly will be downloaded on demand, rather than automatically.
It's designed this way to keep servers stable. I'm not sure you'll be able to get around that fact.
Thanks, all. Back to inspection then.

Quest Diagnostics Proposed Breach Settlement Approved
Patients Whose HIV Test Results Were Exposed Will Get $75 Marianne Kolbasuk McGee (HealthInfoSec) • October 29, 2019
A federal court has given preliminary approval for a $195,000 settlement of a class action lawsuit filed against medical testing laboratory Quest Diagnostics in connection with a 2016 data breach affecting 34,000 individuals that exposed HIV-testing information of some patients.
The agreement, which was negotiated by mediators and approved on Oct. 25 by a New Jersey U.S. district court judge, settles a class action filed in 2017 in the aftermath of a November 2016 hacking incident involving Quest's MyQuest by Care360 internet application. The settlement comes after plaintiffs filed their original complaint in 2017 and then subsequently filed two amended complaints.
In a breach notification statement issued in 2016, Quest Diagnostics said that "an unauthorized third party" accessed the web application and obtained protected health information of approximately 34,000 patients.
The lawsuit against Quest Diagnostics alleges, among other claims, that the Secaucus, New Jersey-based company failed to safeguard its clients' PHI - including laboratory test results and personal identifying information such as names, dates of birth, and phone numbers – and also failed to provide "timely, accurate and adequate notice to plaintiffs and other class members that their private information had been stolen."
In a statement provided to Information Security Media Group, Quest Diagnostics says that while the company "continues to believe that the claims brought by the plaintiff are meritless, the company decided to resolve the issue now to avoid protracted litigation and associated costs."
Settlement Details
Under the settlement, lawsuit class members who submit claims showing monetary losses resulting from the incident can receive $250 each. Class members whose HIV test results were disclosed in the incident will be paid $75. So the maximum payment to any class member is $325.
Neither Quest Diagnostics nor attorneys representing plaintiffs in the lawsuit immediately responded to ISMG's inquiry about approximately how many individuals affected in the data breach had their HIV testing information compromised.
Technology attorney Steven Teppler of the law firm Mandelbaum Salsburg P.C., who is not involved in the case, says that the settlement spotlights the importance of properly securing sensitive health information.
"What is interesting here is that although it remains with the individual class members to provide proof of any monetary damages, the court permitted a fixed - albeit low - settlement payment to those class members whose HIV health information was exfiltrated," he says.
"HIPAA treats certain health-related information - such as substance addiction, HIV status and psychotherapy - as needing elevated protection, and the court's acceptance of this carve-out indicates that the unauthorized disclosure of extra-sensitive protected health information carries with a presumption of injury, and Article III standing."
Article III standing demonstrates to a court that a party suffered some sort of harm by another's actions.
Other Settlements
A number of class action settlements have been reached in other cases involving a breach of HIV-related treatment or testing data.
For example, Aetna reached several settlements for lawsuits stemming from a July 2017 mailing mishap in which a vendor sent letters to health plan members that revealed through the envelope's oversized clear windows that the recipient was taking HIV-related medication.
Aetna signed settlements totaling about $3 million with several states' attorneys as well as a $17.2 million settlement of a class action lawsuit filed against the company on behalf of affected individuals.
"The victims in the Aetna case whose PHI was disclosed could receive a base payment of $75," says privacy attorney David Holtzman of the security consultancy CynergisTek. But the Aetna claimants were entitled to $500 if they received a large window envelope from Aetna that would have more likely disclosed their HIV status and up to $20,000 by documenting financial or emotional harm, he notes.
"Perhaps distinguishing the significantly lower award in the Quest case, it is not known how many individuals whose test data was disclosed had been diagnosed with HIV or if there was evidence to the extent that the PHI had been acquired or viewed," Holtzman adds.
The $250 payments for those who can show evidence of monetary losses resulting from the Quest Diagnostics breach are meant to compensate for identity theft, purchasing credit or identity monitoring services or other documented expenses, Holtzman notes.
"Individuals whose test results were disclosed and can demonstrate significant financial, reputational or emotional harm may choose to decline this settlement to pursue their own lawsuit against Quest in hopes of convincing a court that the breach was preventable and they are due money damages," he adds.
While the volume of "extra sensitive health information" - such as HIV or mental health records - may be small in comparison to the totality of PHI maintained by most healthcare providers, "it is by no means insignificant," notes attorney Teppler.
"In a way, this speaks to the larger issue of protecting all PHI from unauthorized disclosure - and for providers, it makes sense to make these extra protections global and not just for extra- sensitive PHI."
Independent HIPAA attorney Paul Hales, who was not involved in the case, says the court's approval of the settlement is significant because it contains two key findings.
"First, the court has jurisdiction over the subject matter of the lawsuit, which consists of allegations of negligence, breach of contract and violation of New Jersey law based on Quest's failure to protect health information required by HIPAA," he says.
Second, good cause exists for the court to certify the lawsuit is a class action, he adds.
"These are two critical issues for similar lawsuits," Hales says. "The settlement itself has no precedential value and reflects the difficulty in quantifying an amount of damages and overcoming arguments by excellent defense lawyers. However, if courts agree that they have subject matter jurisdiction over these types of lawsuits and that a plaintiff may effectively represent a class of individuals who suffered harm, the door will open wider for people aggrieved by health information breaches."
Other Breach Lawsuits
Quest Diagnostics is also named as one of several co-defendants in a number of class action lawsuits filed in the wake of the American Medical Collection Agency hacking breach, which was revealed earlier this year.
In that incident, more than 12 million patients who had lab tests performed by Quest Diagnostics had their data potentially exposed.

A: Here, I am giving the way by which you log the error and exception to best extent and this help you debug the error easily.
1. Log the request url(controller url) and request parameter -
      Log the request url with its parameter before it assign to controller.Means Log it before it go to controller handler method. (This helpfull in your case.Because spring throw exception before it handle by handler when try to convert the request parameter corresponding to controller handler method parameter).By this you know what is parameter is recive for which controller url
2.Log the request url and response parameter Again log the request url with its response parameter. This helpfull in identify what response is send for this url
3. Log the exception with request url - If you are generating own custom exception like CustomException. Then make a field in CustomException class which take the url,so when you log it , you easily identity for which url this exception is created. For other exception and error, try to make the common exception handler class, and make the method in this class which is called in catch block which catch Throwable and Log the print stack trace in that method
Below are sample code :-
   public CustomException extends Exception{
    String requestUrl;
    String message;
    }

Common Handler method
     public static handleException(Throwable throwable, url){
      //Log print stack trace

      }

For the spring you can use ExceptionHandler, you can easily find about that by googling
For the 1st and 2nd point in spring you can use the HandlerInterceptorAdapter, please learn about that.
Below showing the example code
public class LogInteceptor extends HandlerInterceptorAdapter{

private static final Logger logger = LoggerFactory
    .getLogger(LogInteceptor.class);

//This method called before controller method handle the request
@Override
public boolean preHandle(HttpServletRequest request,
    HttpServletResponse response, Object handler) throws Exception {

//Log other things also

//Logging the request url
logger.info("Request URL {} request param is {}" +  request.getRequestURL().toString(), request);
//if returned false, we need to make sure 'response' is sent
return true;
}

//This called before the model view send to view page for render
@Override
public void postHandle(HttpServletRequest request,
        HttpServletResponse response, Object handler,
        ModelAndView modelAndView) throws Exception {
    //we can add attributes in the modelAndView and use that in the view page
}

//This called when response is going to sent
@Override
public void afterCompletion(HttpServletRequest request,
    HttpServletResponse response, Object handler, Exception ex)
        throws Exception {

}

 }

Online Global Campus of Human Rights Conversations: «Human Rights Pavilion Cosmocafes 2022 - updates and next steps»
You are cordially invited to join us for the 5th online Global Campus of Human Rights Conversation.
The conversation will take place on Wednesday 9 March 2022 at 11 am (CET) via zoom and will feature the following speakers:
Koen Vanmechelen, Artist and initiator Human Rights Pavilion;
Manfred Nowak, Global Campus Secretary General;
Special guests from the previous editions of the Cosmocafes;
Elisabetta Noli, Global Campus Administrative Director
Live illustrations of Gianluca Costantini.
We live in difficult times. The coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) is exacerbating human suffering, widening inequalities, and threatening peoples' livelihoods. The UN Secretary General has described it as not just a health crisis but a human crisis that is fast becoming a human rights crisis. The pandemic is challenging societies at their very core. Moving people further apart, distancing conversations. To face the future in a spirit of hope, investing in the education of young generations, in creativity and in the continuous encounter with the other will be pivotal.
In this effort, the Global Campus of Human Rights wishes to provide safe spaces where views on important topics for our sustainable future can be freely imagined and exchanged, crossed, fertilised, and experimented, in the encounter with the other.
The Human Rights Pavilion and the Cosmocafes of artist Koen Vanmechelen offer such platform. Organised together with the Global Campus of Human Rights, Fondazione Berengo and the MOUTH Foundation, they bring together Education, Art and Human Rights as critical driving forces in this particular moment. This is especially relevant in the city of Venice, which is inaugurating this year the 59th International Art Exhibition - Biennale Arte 2022 ("The Milk of Dreams").
Our next online conversation will focus on the past and future developments of the Human Rights Pavilion and Cosmocafes, which were inaugurated during the 58th Biennale of Venice in 2019 and will be reignited during the upcoming Biennale Arte 2022.
Register here by Monday, 7 March at 4 pm (CET).
This Conversation will also provide an occasion for partners, past Human Rights Pavilion contributors, our staff, professors, alumni and students to actively participate in the discussion about the future development and activities of the Human Rights Pavilion in the city of Venice, which hosts the Headquarters of the Global Campus of Human Rights at the Monastery of San Nicolò in the Lido of Venice.

Washington D.C. [USA], Sept. 15 : Dear parents! Giving cell phones to your kids can make them more prone to cyberbullying, suggests a recent study.
The research, which was focused on cell phone ownership among children in third to fifth grades, finds that these children might be particularly vulnerable to cyberbullying.
During research, experts collected data on 4,584 students from grades 3, 4 and 5 between 2014 and 2016.
According to the study, 9.5 percent of children were reported being a victim of cyberbullying. Cell phone owners in grades three and four were more likely to report being a victim of cyberbullying.
Across all three grades, more cell phone owners admitted they have been a cyberbully themselves.
Elizabeth K. Englander, Ph.D., a professor of psychology at Bridgewater State University in Bridgewater, Mass said, "Parents often cite the benefits of giving their child a cell phone, but our research suggests that giving young children these devices may have unforeseen risks as well."
Continuous access to social media increases an online interaction which provides more opportunities to engage both positively and negatively with peers, and increases the chance of an impulsive response to peers' postings and messages.
This research is a reminder for parents to consider the risks as well as the benefits when deciding whether to provide their elementary school-aged child a cell phone.
Englander added, "At the very least, parents can engage in discussions and education with their child about the responsibilities inherent in owning a mobile device, and the general rules for communicating in the social sphere."
The study was presented at the American Academy of Pediatrics National Conference and Exhibition in Chicago.


If you've visited this blog over the years, you know that every Easter, I square off with the Bunny. Translation: I try to duplicate my mother-in-law's recipe for a bunny cake. My MIL was a truly great cook, and I learned a lot from her, including how to make yummy enchiladas, tamales, tortillas, and menudo. To learn all these, I basically stalked her during her cooking process by making notes, asking questions, and otherwise dogging her tracks (and helping too of course).
It never occurred to me to stalk her during the making of the Easter bunny cake. It seemed pretty simple – make two round white layers (from a package!). One layer becomes the bunny's face. The other is cut in three semi-circular doodads to form two big ears and a bow tie. Then you whip up some meringue style white frosting, and coat the whole ensemble, adding jelly beans for eyes and polka dots on tie, and covering all (except the bow tie) with coconut.
So here we are again. Just me and the bunny. I've been psyching myself up for it all week. Also, I have scoured the internet for more and better recipes. Some of them sound easier, but I'm not going for easy. I want it to be my MIL's recipe, or close to it. So cream of tartar, sugar, water – boiled until something magical happens. Then whipped into egg whites.
Some of the internet recipes use corn syrup. Some put everything into a double boiler and whip it that way. I'm sure they are fabulous, but that's too far off course for me and the bunny. It's all about authenticity now.
My goal? Perfect on the first try.
I achieved "almost perfect" on the third try once, about five years ago. Since then, it's been a little bit down hill. The family has loved it every year, because the basic taste is there, and once you put the coconut on, you can't see that the icing isn't quite as fluffy as real meringue.
Oh well, wish me luck. I have some promising tips from e-bakers, so who knows? In any case, I'll report back!
p.s. if you came here for contest info, it's in the next post down. Good luck!
I had a roommate in college who truly was a perfectionist in all things, especially her baking. I still remember one day when I was trudging up the stairs toward our apartment and the air was filled with the yummy scent of freshly-baked chocolate chip cookies. But as i came through the front door, the scent was overpowered by a sound -- of the garbage disposal! The poor cookies had burned, just a bit, and so she had stuffed them all down the chute. Oh the humanity! I've never gotten over it, so even though I try to achieve excellence, I'm pretty comfortable with "close."
If only that Bunny wouldn't gloat, all would be well.
Re: Thanks for the support!!
oh now that's just WRONG!
