Many Moons away from Home-The Last Hunter (Enhanced DVD)
Join Documentary film maker Paula Palacios as she returns on location where a child has been named after her.
Palacios Films, founded by documentary filmmaker Paula Palacios, produces films that demonstrate universal themes in locations all over the world. This particular film depicts natural circumstances suffered by an indigenous population in Tanzania. Most isolated tribal communities can point a finger at some outside cultural influence in aiding the disintegration of their way of life, but some experience the natural process of being phased out with no real tie to some exterior other. Palacios is returning to Tanzania to meet her namesake, but her experiences during that month are the real story. The indigenous population, the Hadzabe, are a hunter-gatherer community who are encountering modern, but also indigenous, threats to their way of life. The story begins with the hunt for meat needed for the baby-naming feast. Meat is scarce and because the Hadzabe do not adapt to change, their demise has begun. Internal strife unravels the group from within; women are dying because the men are not productively hunting. One hunter returns with alcohol and marijuana, but no food. The biggest issue seems to be their competition with farming communities that are taking more and more land and water away from them and wild game. Palacios eventually procures a goat for the women to perform the ceremony, but the group is forced to subsist on fruit when no game has been found. The hunting party passes farms during their hunt and leaves many animals unmolested. The hunters return to the village days later with a substantial amount of meat for everyone, but their decreasing lands are now being jeopardized by seizure for conservation lands for the Serengeti National Park.

Work Placements are short internships offered to students by companies in order to give them a taste of employment and teach them real, work-based skills.
So, what are the benefits to you as a company?
When given the right support, work experience programmes all over the world have been shown to be effective ways for companies to recruit students directly from college or university.
The placement gives the student a taste of the industry and helps them to identify if they are suited to this career path. Workers recruited through work placements have also been found to be very well suited to the role - performing more effectively, requiring less training, demonstrating better respect for supervisors and a greater ability to work in teams.
Work placements are a fantastic way to demonstrate to your local community the work you are doing to help young people into job roles. Studies have found that consumers are more likely to use companies that support young people into work.
Work placements can improve the skills of your existing staff workforce. It gives employees the opportunity to build on their coaching, management and communication skills.
Many companies recognise that corporate social responsibility (CSR) strategies are an important part of their offer to their employees, customers and local community and work placements can form a crucial part of this approach.


Kymbr Trujillo was acquitted of drug distribution and weapons charges. Her attorney, Jim Fahrenholtz, called it "the most overcharged case in the world."
LEADVILLE — A jury did not believe that a woman shorter than 5 feet tall posed much of a threat to two police officers, and while they were at it, they cleared her of the drug charges, too.
It was 6:45 p.m. June 14, 2016, when Kymbr Trujillo, 28, 4-foot-11 and 105 pounds, was outside a Leadville store with her young daughter when Dep. David Basile with the Lake County Sheriff's Office spotted her. Basile confirmed that there was an arrest warrant for her, so he arrested her.
According to court documents, while Basile was searching Trujillo's purse, he found a zebra-striped bag. In that bag was a small pink and blue metal box with "Kymbr" engraved on the top. In that bag were plastic bags containing a "clearish crystal substance" and a "white powdery substance," Basile said in his reports.
Basile said methamphetamine was in one large bag and three smaller bags. He said cocaine was in one larger bag, two medium sized and five smaller bags.
He said he also found $120 in cash and three pocket knives in the purse.
Trujillo was charged with a string of drug felonies, as well as threatening the police because of the pocket knives. She faced up to 32 years in prison. As their final plea deal, Jim Fahrenholtz, Trujillo's attorney, said prosecutors offered his client eight years in prison in exchange for a guilty plea. She decided to take her chances at trial.
"Mandatory prison for something like this?" Fahrenholtz said incredulously.
Of the 12 bags found in Trujillo's purse, police only analyzed the two smallest ones, Fahrenholtz said. While they contained small amounts of cocaine and methamphetamine, the other 10 bags were not analyzed.
During the trial, police insisted that, based on their experience, the other bags also contained cocaine and meth. However, they could not prove that to the jury's satisfaction, Fahrenholtz said.
The jury also walked Trujillo on the weapons charge for the pocket knives, with blades less than 3 ½ inches long, Fahrenholtz said.

Rosario: Yes. I'm torn. I want the Twins or the Yankees to win or lose

John Shipley: The Gophers' Destiny Pitts drama seems quaint
I need to swallow hard now, man up and confess I have conflicting loyalties.
I'm talking here about the Minnesota Twins-New York Yankees divisional playoff series that kicks off Friday night.
I grew up in NYC. I've been a lifelong Yankees fan outside a spell where my allegiance shifted in adolescence to the Baltimore Orioles of the 1970s because the Yankees were terrible. I played third base in pickup sandlot games and I idolized Brooks Robinson, the hot-corner human vacuum cleaner.
I never completely cut my hometown baseball ties. I would root for my sad sack Yanks unless they played the Orioles.
But my allegiance shifted back to my hometown club once the Orioles abandoned farm-club prospects in favor of signing talented but poisonous free-agent mercenaries like Albert Belle.
Then came the fall of 1991, when I was wooed here from the New York Daily News to become a city editor at the Pioneer Press.
Before that gig happened, I agreed to serve as a special metro correspondent here for a few weeks. I was asked one night to report on the non-sports goings-on outside the Metrodome as the scrappy underdog Twins were giving the much-favored Atlanta Braves all they could handle during a World Series match still considered among the best of all time.
I finished phoning in narratives about the Minneapolis-based members of the American Indian Movement protesting the offensive tomahawking gestures of the out-of-state fans and the team's name when I decided to walk into the Metrodome to catch the final innings of what turned out to be a classic affair.
Other than the raucous New York Rangers-Islanders playoff games at Madison Square Garden where I worked as an usher, I had never heard of an equally noisy playoff atmosphere.
I went inside in time to see the Twins beloved outfielder, the late Kirby Puckett, make a game-saving catch in centerfield to save what could have been a hit that would have given the Atlanta Braves a lead.
I then watched in awe as Puckett hit a home run to send the series to a seventh and deciding game in which the Twins won in dramatic fashion.
It ranks up there with other classic games I witnessed years earlier.
I was a Daily News copyboy in 1977, assisting a centerfield-stationed photographer, when Yankees' outfielder Reggie Jackson hit three consecutive home runs on three pitches in Game Six of that year's World Series against the favored Los Angeles Dodgers. The second one landed just a few feet from me, but I could not leave my location in time. A fan in the bleachers scooped it up.
I was running film back to headquarters in Manhattan to make a deadline after the second dinger when quite a number of AM-transistor-radio-listening subway straphangers erupted in cheers when the third home run was hit.
Nine years later I was seated with a friend in the upper right field deck of Shea Stadium, then home of the New York Mets. The hated and heavily favored Boston Red Sox were just one out away from winning Game Six and the series. We watched the Boston players in the dugout celebrating after the second out. One out away. They thought they had it in the bag. We thought the same.
Then, the mischief gods of baseball intervened. A routine grounder from the bat of the Mets' Mookie Wilson somehow went through the legs of the Red Sox first baseman. What transpired remains among the most unlikely of sports classic comebacks. The Mets went on to win that game as well as the deciding seventh to win the crown.
So what does this all mean? It means that after growing up in New York City and living here now 28 years, I still lean slightly toward the team where I come from. But I'm rooting for both teams to make this matchup a memorable one.
The newsroom here is holding a Twins celebration Friday and encouraging folks to wear "Twins gear."
I'm torn. Should I wear the Twins' pennant-winning cap a close friend who works for the Twins gave me and a Yankees shirt? Or should I reverse it and wear my Yankees cap and "Bomba Squad" T-shirt?
I'm rooting for both teams. Why? When one is dealing with far greater issues like incurable cancer and putting food on the table, it really does not mean that much in the universal scheme of things for me.
Play ball. May the team that should win, well, win.
It's not the end of the world.

Musical road trip across America's Deep South
Musical road trip across America's Deep South
Nashville, Tennesee in America's Deep South.
02 May 2013 . BY Raman Kumar
Laura Greaves gets her motor running and heads out on the highway for a musical road trip across America's Deep South.
Anthem: Deep in the Heart of Texas by Perry Como
Mix tape: Brooks & Dunn, Waylon Jennings, Lyle Lovett, Kris Kristofferson, Kenny Rogers, Willie Nelson, the Dixie Chicks, Buddy Holly, ZZ Top, Johnny Mathis, Meat Loaf, Roy Orbison, Sly and the Family Stone, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Beyonce.
They say everything is bigger in Texas, and they're right – starting with my enormous rented 4WD. I quickly learn that the trickiest part about motoring in the United States isn't driving on the 'wrong' side of the road; it's keeping this high-speed monolith, quickly nicknamed The Beast, in its own lane.
Plenty of people told me to skip Texas all together. 'There's a whole lotta nuthin' out there,' was the common refrain. But strange as it may seem, the 'nothing' is what I've come to see. I want windswept cowboy country, longhorn cattle, lone rangers – and happily, that's exactly what I get.
First stop is the pretty northwestern city of Lubbock, better known as the birthplace of rock 'n' roll legend Buddy Holly, who died in a 1959 plane crash aged just 22. Housed in a former railway depot on the aptly-named Crickets Avenue, the fantastic Buddy Holly Center is a small but comprehensive celebration of his enormously influential career.
But the museum leaves me feeling surprisingly sombre. The glass cases filled with his high school report cards and basketball boots are a stark reminder that Holly's was a life cut tragically short. No artefact drives this home more sharply than those famous black-rimmed spectacles; their lenses missing, the frames are still flecked with mud from the frozen Iowa field where Holly died 54 years ago.
Driving south from Lubbock down US-84, the prairie soon gives way to the strip malls and motel chains that herald major cities across America. This is Dallas, a city with a chequered history, at least in popular culture terms.
On November 22, 1963, President John F Kennedy was assassinated as his open motorcade drove through the streets of downtown Dallas. His killer (depending on which conspiracy theory you believe) was Lee Harvey Oswald, a native of neighbouring Fort Worth, who shot Kennedy from a window on the sixth floor of the Texas School Book Depository.
Now home to The Sixth Floor Museum, the building is the lone high-rise on a block long since razed to make way for parking lots. The museum itself is full of hyperbole about JFK's many achievements; entirely bereft of any mention of the failures and scandals that engulfed the Kennedy family.
It's also a little macabre. The corner of the room from which Oswald fired the deadly shots is set up exactly as it was when discovered by police. On the road below, an 'X' marks the place where Kennedy was struck. Tourists dart into traffic to snap pictures on the spot.
I can't leave Dallas without paying tribute to another late legend, bluesman Stevie Ray Vaughan. My father is a diehard SRV fan, and I grew up with his music. I also share Vaughan's birthday – October 3 – and the 35 year old's death in a helicopter crash in 1990 deeply affected me. Visiting his grave at the Laurel Land Memorial Park, on the outskirts of Dallas, seems like the least I can do.
I ask everyone I meet whether Texas is truly a part of the South. Almost everyone gives me the same answer: 'Texas is Texas.' And you can't argue with that.

Anthem: Mary Queen of Arkansas by Bruce Springsteen
Mix tape: Johnny Cash, Al Green, Glen Campbell, Conway Twitty, The Band, Levon Helm.
Another 'is it strictly the South?' state (Arkansans answer with an emphatic 'yes'), Arkansas has strong ties to country, bluegrass and rockabilly. It's also the home state of both Johnny Cash and former US President (and saxophone enthusiast) Bill Clinton.
In the northwest corner of the state is handsome Bentonville, the birthplace of the Walton family's ubiquitous Walmart discount empire. Love it or hate it – and plenty of people claim it's at least partly responsible for the homogenisation of America – Walmart is a big deal in Bentonville.
As I trace the history of the retail giant at the Walmart Visitor Center, which occupies the original 'Walmart 5&10' variety store opened by Sam Walton in 1962, a local tells me that every single person involved in the company's humble beginnings – from the checkout girls to the floor sweepers – is today a millionaire.
Arkansas also has the Walton family to thank for its newest tourist attraction, Bentonville's Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art. It was founded – and personally bankrolled to the tune of $317 million – by Alice Walton, daughter of Sam and heiress to the Walmart empire.
The museum houses an impressive collection of American works spanning the Colonial era to the present day. Norman Rockwell's 'Rosie the Riveter' is just one of the pieces whose acquisition by Crystal Bridges reportedly put the collective noses of several important galleries across America well out of joint.
Even with its new 'must visit' status among art lovers, Arkansas remains refreshingly free of airs and graces. I dine at Bentonville's Flying Fish, where all the food is served in baskets, the walls are plastered with photos of locals' fishing triumphs and the beer is ice cold; fortunately for me, Benton is one of just 10 Arkansas counties where it's legal to buy alcohol.

Anthem: Walking in Memphis by Marc Cohn
Mix tape: Aretha Franklin, Tina Turner, Dolly Parton, Dinah Shore, Carl Perkins, Justin Timberlake, Isaac Hayes, Booker T Jones, Lady Antebellum, Kenny Chesney.
If Mississippi is the self-proclaimed birthplace of America's music, then Tennessee is its nursery. Not only is it home to two of the most famous musical cities in the world, Memphis and Nashville, Tennessee has also proven especially fertile ground for female stars including Aretha
Franklin, Dolly Parton (whose theme park, Dollywood, is a leading tourist attraction here), and Tina Turner. Girl power!
Tennessee's largest city, Memphis bills itself as both the 'Birthplace of the Blues' and the 'Birthplace of Rock 'n' Roll'. Grand claims they may be, but they're not without merit; the city's musical pedigree is palpable. Blues composer WC Handy wrote what is thought to be the first commercially successful blues song, Memphis Blues, in a bar on Beale Street in 1912, while Elvis Presley recorded his first song at Sun Studio in 1953.
Beale Street remains the 24-hour party centre of Memphis. Like New Orleans' Bourbon Street, it is intrinsically linked to the city's musical heritage, though today it's strictly tourist territory – which isn't to say it's not a hell of a lot of fun. I spend a raucous evening propping up the bar at the Blues City Café while local trio The Memphis Three sing the blues.
Just off Beale Street, but well off the beaten track in tourist terms, is the Gibson guitar factory. As the daughter of a musician and dyed-in-the-wool Gibson obsessive, I feel compelled to take the 45-minute factory tour, which is led by a staggeringly knowledgeable employee who fits the 'guitar geek' stereotype to a tee.
Back on the tourist trail, it's a 20-minute drive from downtown Memphis to The King's Graceland mansion. The house today is exactly as it was when Elvis died here in 1977. From the infamous Jungle Room, with its green shag-pile carpet and waterfall, to the Pool Room, where the walls and ceiling are covered with intricately folded fabric, Graceland is a symphony of 1970s bad taste.
A lesser-known pilgrimage for Elvis fans, which happens to be directly opposite my hotel, is Lauderdale Courts, the rough-and-ready public housing development in downtown Memphis where he was living when he paid $3.98 to cut his first record at Sam Phillips' Sun Studio.
Now completely renovated, Elvis devotees can pay $250 a night to stay in his 1950s-styled former abode.
When Phillips moved his operation to larger premises in the 1960s, he simply locked up and left, leaving Sun Studio entirely untouched – and its future as one of Memphis' best and most authentic musical attractions assured. There is an 'X' taped to the floor, marking the spot where
Elvis stood when he recorded. And, The King's microphone is still there, too; guides tell the story of one enthusiastic fan who, believing it might contain traces of Presley DNA, licked it.

Anthem: Midnight in Mississippi by Blue Mountain
Mix tape: Muddy Waters, Elvis Presley, BB King, John Lee Hooker, Sam Cooke, Bo Didley, Robert Johnson, Howlin' Wolf, RL Burnside, Mose Allison, Big Time Sarah.
Crossing the Mississippi state line, it's as if the landscape knows it's the cradle of the famed Delta Blues. There's fertile green farmland, corn and cotton fields as far as the eye can see, all dotted with tumbledown shacks and white-steepled churches of every denomination.
One of my favourite Mississippi myths involves blues legend Robert Johnson, who reportedly made a deal with the Devil at a local crossroads: he promised his soul in exchange for fame and fortune. Johnson encouraged the tale with songs including Me and the Devil and Cross Road Blues before dying mysteriously at just 27.
No one can quite agree on the precise location of Johnson's crossroads, though the most popular theory is that it's the intersection of Highways 61 and 49 at Clarksdale. It's easy to believe.
Clarksdale is broken down, boarded up and grim – ironic, or perhaps appropriate, given it gave us some of the Blues' biggest names, whose stock in trade was their pain and suffering.
Blues fans flock to Clarksdale from around the world for the quirky Delta Blues Museum, a lovingly curated collection celebrating bluesmen and women from the obscure to the world famous. In fact, the genial chap manning the gift shop tells me he retired from Kansas to Clarksdale simply to be closer to the blues. Artefacts include BB King's guitar, 'Lucille', and an electric guitar made from a piece of wood taken from Muddy Waters' childhood home.
Down the highway, leafy Indianola is as vibrant and well kept as Clarksdale is unkempt. BB King, feted as the world's greatest living blues artist, is Indianola's most beloved son, and he still returns every year to play a free concert for the loyal residents.
The vast BB King Museum and Delta Interpretive Center is an inspiring and uplifting journey through his life. "I wonder," muses singer John Mayer in a star-studded film about King, "will anyone in my generation be as devoted to anything as BB is to the Blues?"
Singer Rufus Thomas succinctly sums up 87-year-old King's enduring impact on the genre: "He's not a star – stars burn out. He's a moon, and they never do."

Anthem: Callin' Baton Rouge by Garth Brooks
Mix tape: Louis Armstrong, Fats Domino, Buddy Guy, Jerry Lee Lewis, Dr John, Harry Connick Jr, Britney Spears.
For most people's money, Louisiana is the 'real' Deep South. Famous for gators and swamps, bayous and Blues, the Pelican State's crowning glory is undoubtedly 'the Big Easy': New Orleans.
But the living has been anything but easy in NOLA (New Orleans, Louisiana) in recent years. The city was ravaged by Hurricane Katrina in 2005 and recovery has been painfully slow. Many low-lying settlements outside the city have been abandoned all together, while many inner-city properties are still scarred with a telltale grey-green line just under their rooflines: Katrina's high water mark.
But in the picturesque French Quarter, Katrina is all but forgotten. Here, in the city's beating heart, jazz, blues and rock 'n' roll spill from open doorways at all hours of the day and night. The famed Bourbon Street is always teeming with brightly-coloured Mardi Gras beads raining down from balconies and plenty of skin on display. At Bourbon's eastern end, Lafitte's Blacksmith Shop Bar has been doing a roaring trade since 1722, making it the oldest bar in the US.
For a taste of the real New Orleans, I head to the 7th Ward and Frenchmen Street, home to the city's best live music venues. I visit Blue Nile, Café Negril and The Maison, where the Big Fun Brass Band has the joint jumping.
Across the street, the Frenchmen Art Market is bustling with shoppers snapping up watercolour prints, hand-poured candles and unique jewellery, all made by local artists. The soundtrack is provided by busking collective Sweet Street Symphony's interactive, pantomime-style performance art.
After the decadence of New Orleans, quiet and ordered Baton Rouge is a refreshing change. Perched alongside the wide, brown Mississippi River, the road into Louisiana's capital includes a 20-mile stretch of elevated interstate that winds through uniquely beautiful swampland.
I duck into Poor Boy Lloyd's for a famous Louisiana po' boy sandwich. Enormous and dirt cheap, the po' boy is a lunchtime staple in these parts. Baton Rouge is justifiably proud of its Cajun cuisine. "This area is where you'll find real Cajun cooking," says Fred, Poor Boy Lloyd's jovial cashier. "In New Orleans all you'll get is Yankee chefs with bottles of hot sauce." I consider myself schooled.

Anthem: Sweet Home Alabama by Lynyrd Skynyrd
Mix tape: Nat King Cole, Emmylou Harris, Hank Williams, Wilson Pickett, The Commodores, The Temptations, Lionel Richie.
In Alabama, I swing The Beast through appealing decrepit Mobile to catch a glimpse of a real rarity: a white, female blues star. Flame-haired Bonnie Raitt is performing at the historic Saenger Theatre, and sleepy Mobile has come alive for the evening.
After the show, I wander across the road to funky junk shop Papillon, where I stock up on vintage Beatles 78s and try unsuccessfully to convince owner Shar Begnaud to part with her classic Vespa scooter.
In Alabama's capital, Montgomery, things take a turn for the literary. Montgomery was the birthplace of the beautiful, spirited and ultimately tragic Zelda Sayre – better known as Zelda Fitzgerald, wife of The Great Gatsby author F. Scott who dubbed her 'the first American Flapper'.
Zelda, Scott and their daughter, Scottie, lived at 919 Felder Avenue, in the well-heeled Montgomery suburb of Cloverdale, while Scott worked on what would be his final novel, Tender is the Night. The house has since been divided into flats, but a suite of rooms on the ground floor now serves as the fascinating Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald Museum.
Montgomery is historically important for other reasons, too. In 1955, a young African-American woman, Rosa Parks, refused to give up her seat on a Montgomery bus to a white man. The impact of Rosa's actions, and Montgomery's role in the wider Civil Rights movement, are explored at the contemplative Rosa Parks Museum and Civil Rights Memorial Center.
Downtown, I visit the quirky, and slightly macabre, Hank Williams Museum. A Montgomery native, Williams gave us such classic country tunes as Hey, Good Lookin' and Your Cheatin' Heart. He was just 29 when he died in the back seat of his Cadillac while being driven to a gig in 1953. The baby blue car is the museum's centrepiece, along with the clothes he was wearing when he died.

Anthem: Georgia on my Mind by Ray Charles
Mix tape: Ray Charles, Otis Redding, Little Richard, The Allman Brothers Band, REM, The B-52s, Travis Tritt.
We can thank Georgia for Ray Charles, Martin Luther King Jr and Coca-Cola. The Peach State is also the setting for Margaret Mitchell's Pulitzer Prize-winning 1936 novel, Gone with the Wind, which arguably did more to put Georgia on the cultural map than anything else.
I detour through Macon to visit the Allman Brothers Band Museum; it seems only fitting since one of the band's biggest hits was Ramblin' Man, which celebrates the joys of the open road. Ironically, guitarist Duane Allman died in a motorcycle accident in Macon in 1971. In a grim twist, his bandmate Berry Oakley also died in a motorcycle accident a year later, just three blocks away from the site of Allman's death. Allman and Oakley are buried side by side in Macon's Rose Hill Cemetery.
In Savannah, at last, I discover the Deep South I've always dreamed of. With its immaculately-preserved antebellum architecture, white weatherboard houses and Spanish moss-draped trees, this is 'Southern Gothic' to the max.
Having long reveled in its relative isolation, Savannah enjoyed (or perhaps 'tolerated' is a fairer assessment) a flurry of global interest in the 1990s thanks to John Berendt's best-selling non-fiction novel, Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil.
The book tells the story of Jim Williams, a Savannah socialite and antiques dealer who shot and killed troubled young hustler Danny Hansford at his home, the stunning Mercer House, in 1981. A guided tour of the house is a must for anyone who enjoys stickybeaking at rich people's houses (which, let's face it, is all of us).
Four sensational trials saw the late Williams convicted and eventually cleared of murder, so it feels oddly clinical when, as the tour moves into the study where Hansford died, our guide says only that 'a serious incident' occurred in the lavishly decorated room. Serious indeed.
On my last morning I spend a deliciously creepy morning wandering through the 100-acre Bonaventure Cemetery, dotted with towering obelisks and elegantly wasted mausoleums. Permanent residents include Jim Williams, Academy Award-winning songwriter (and Savannah's most famous son) Johnny Mercer and poet Conrad Aiken.
It's somehow appropriate that a frenetic journey of almost 2500 kilometres should come to an end at a place of eternal rest. I return The Beast to the rental car depot feeling stuffed full of music, art and inspiration – and yet still ravenously hungry for more.
Like the parasitic Spanish moss strangling Savannah's sturdy old oaks, modern America is – for better or worse – steadfastly encroaching on the southern culture that Margaret Mitchell, John Berendt et al wrote about.
But if you're willing to look for it, that mythic vision of the Deep South is still there, just below the surface.

The states of the Deep South enjoy scorching, humid summers (late May to early September). Late September through to early April tends to be the most temperate time for travel. The peak period for tornadoes in the southern states is from April to June. As an Atlantic state, Georgia's hurricane season runs from 1 June to 30 November.
Best thing about the Deep South
America's 'have a nice day' culture is at fever pitch in the genteel South, where nothing is too much trouble and everything comes with a smile. And that accent is pretty hard to beat.
Worst thing about the Deep South
It may be steeped in history and culture, but the Deep South is as choked with strip malls, fast food outlets and high-speed freeways as the rest of America. You'll see so much more if you avoid the interstates and stick to highways and state roads. Bypass the chain-motel-and-burger-joint satellite metropolises that surround even the smaller cities; the 'real' south is found downtown and off the beaten track.
The South is one of America's poorest regions, and even the most handsome and historic cities and towns have high crime rates. Take care when out and about: stick to busy thoroughfares, especially at night, and don't flash your cash. Public transport can be hit-and-miss, especially in the smaller cities, and taxi ranks can be hard to find, so pre-book your return transport before heading out for the evening or take the number of a cab company with you.

Q: Как целесообразнее разрабатывать приложение под ios? Все добрый день, подскажите, пожалуйста!
Нужно разработать простое приложение под айфон и айпад, будет авторизация, несколько сцен (окон) с кнопками, нажимая на которые будут отправляться запросы к серверу.
Вопрос, как проще всего разработать это приложение, учитывая, что опыта разработки под айос нет?
Использовать storybroad или нет? (в интернете больше примеров без него)
Нужно поддержка, начиная с 5 версии айос, какие подводные камни?
Буду очень благодарен за советы!
A: storyboard - очень удобная штука для разработки простых приложений, но в тоже время наиубогоющее изобретение для сложных приложений. Достаточно прочитать в любой книге про сторибоарды и можно клипать приложение. Но авторизация и прочие штуки нужно будет изучать. Сейчас уже давольно много библиотек которые позволяют это делать за несколько кусочков кода. Но надо это все усваивать, в любом случае. Что косается 5 ос, есть ньюансы по поводу поворота вьюх... но это уже отдельная тема.

Q: How to calculate win probability for following game? The game works like this,
Suppose, there is a total of 900 numbers(1.00 to 9.99) from you can choose any one number to bet.
Example:
1) If you choose 1.10 number and place a bet of 100$ on it. If the generated random number is 1.10 or greater than that then you will receive 110 in return(100 * 1.10).
2) If you place a 100$ bet on number 5.00 and again generated random number is 5.00 or greater then that then you will receive 500 (100 * 5.00) in reward.
But the twist here is there is less probability for a higher number to generate a then lower number,
1) The probability of the generated number is between 1.00 - 1.49 is 60%
2) For numbers between 1.50 - 1.99. There is a probability of 30%.
3) For rest 2.00 - 9.99, there is a probability of 10%.
You can refer to this link for getting a better understanding of the game: Moon-Game
My question is if I bet on any particular number then how can I calculate my win probability?
Your answers appreciated. Thanks in advance.

A: I'm taking this question to mean that if you pick a number at random, what is the probability you'll win?
This is simply a weighted average. There's a 5/90 chance the number is chosen from bracket 1, 5/90 for bracket 2, and 8/9 for the last bracket. Multiply each case by it's winning probability and you have your answer. So,
(5/90)X(6/10) + (5/90)X(3/10) + (8/9)X(1/10) = 0.1389.
This is how the game creators make their money, as with enough people betting, only around 14% of them will win. The rest of the money goes to them.
Hope this helps!

Review: The Last Airbender
By Xander Markham February 20, 2020
M. Night Shyamalan is a veteran of films I've loathed, most notably Signs and The Lady In The Water, but where I have a soft spot for The Happening through the sheer hilarity of its dreadfulness – if Tommy Wiseau had a budget and desire to make a disaster movie, Happening is the film he would have made – Airbender marks a return to the flat self-importance that left Lady very much dead In The Water.
Reams of exposition are delivered in lengthy scenes that give the actors little to do other than nod their heads, hurrying through what passes for action (mostly consisting of people striking elaborate poses at each other, taking so long to conjure up each power that battles effectively become turn-based) in order to reach the next passage of monotonous blabbing as quickly as possible. Shyamalan's inability to draw any kind of emotional response from his actors, in addition to the script's confusion of bloated portentousness for gravitas, results in these scenes being dragged from slow to suicidal, in turn making it only natural to glaze over most of the information being given to you through mentally debilitating boredom. How energetic children are expected to sit through these endless, dreary exchanges beggars belief.
Visually the film is at least colourful and therefore more engaging to look at than watch, but the quality of the CGI varies wildly and little effort is made to giving the effects any real-world credibility. Tsunamis of water splash down on top of people who find themselves perfectly dry seconds later. Fire is thrown around with wild abandon yet while it would be a bit much to expect a children's film to represent anyone burning, it would be nice to at least get the impression of some form of heat being generated. As for the oppressed Earthbenders needing a chosen one to point out that they have an advantage over their captors in the ability to manipulate the ground beneath their feet, the less said the better.
The elemental powers on show are entirely interchangeable except for the different colour schemes. Aang apparently needs to learn specific skills to master the control of each, yet we're not given any insight into what these skills might be or how they're different from those required for other elements. Perhaps the biggest problem running throughout the film is that it scarcely believes its own world and has no interest in probing it for anything deeper than opportunities for visual spectacle. Yet if the film won't even put that minimal effort into establishing its fantasy, that spectacle is robbed of consequences and lacks any impact for the audience.
It would help if there were a protagonist worth cheering for, but young Aang mopes through the film with none of the fun that a super-powered boy with a flying furry pet should be having, no matter how many reincarnated saviours with the weight of the world on their shoulders he's got buzzing around inside him. I don't like being so harsh on young actors, but there's no spirit or exuberance in the leads' performances. That may be mostly down to the dour material, but even bad lines needn't be delivered with the enthusiasm of a multiplication table recital. Dev Patel is at least generous enough to make his performance as the angsty exiled Prince of the Fire people (or something) so completely lacking in credible humanity or threat that everyone on-screen with him briefly looks good. A word also for Seychelle Gabriel, who pops up briefly as a short-lived, princess-shaped plot device: you're reasonably talented and in a slither of a role, your smile is one of the better things on show here, just as your torso was the best thing in the otherwise abominable The Spirit. But being the best thing in the worst films is no way to build a career.
Even with being released during a particularly bad summer, the scale of The Last Airbender's egregiousness can be summed up with two points. The first is that it relies upon being slightly more visually enjoyable than Lady In The Water and marginally more bearable than summer competition Jonah Hex for credibility. The second is that the film's sole entertainment value comes from chuckles earnt by characters delivering minutes of straight-faced ominous exposition, only to start calling each other 'benders' (a sarcastic British term for homosexual) shortly afterwards.
The Last Airbender is insufferable for adults and no doubt doubly so for children or fans of the animé, who will be hit twice as hard by the portentous dialogue, dour tone, torturous pacing and hollow spectacle. For a more enjoyable evening's entertainment, take a dive into an active volcano. And live.

Q: SQL: how do I add multiple rows together to produce a new row? I want to add rows together and produce a new row at the bottom of the table.
In the example below I want to add up US, Canada, and Mexico's population and add a new row to the table (see arrow, and red cell below).

In Excel this is simply a case using the SUM function, but how do I do this in SQL? When I use sum(population) this produces a new column - but I need it as a row.
At the moment my solution is to create a new table with the population column aggregated, and then UNION ALL to my original table. Not very elegant I think you'll admit.
There has to be a way to do it with SQL without using UNION ALL?
Thanks

A: Just use the following SQL insert Query.
Insert into TABLE_NAME (Country, Population)
values ('North American Region', (select sum(Population) from TABLE_NAME));

You must change the TABLE_NAME to your Table's name, and use the column values correspondingly.

A: you could try to do some of similar
INSERT INTO T( country, popolation )
SELECT "North America region" as country, SUM( Population ) as Population
FROM T
WHERE country in ('US','Canada','Mexico')

A: You could use roll  up
SELECT country, sum(Population)  as Population
FROM your_table
group by country
WITH ROLLUP;

or use a union
SELECT country, sum(Population)  as Population
FROM  your_table
group by country
union
SELECT "North America region", SUM( Population ) as Population
FROM

Did Gun Rights Activist Flag Problem with St. Anthony Police?
The facts still need to be established in the tragic shooting death of Philando Castile Wednesday night by a St. Anthony police officer in Falcon Heights. Reports say Castile, a black man, was evidently shot after being asked to produce his driver license and vehicle registration. Somewhere in the process Castile apparently informed the officer he had a conceal carry license and a firearm. What went wrong next remains under investigation.
But was the St. Anthony Police Department advised to rethink its policy of policing through traffic pullovers a year and a half before this incident by a well-respected lawyer and gun rights activist who had it happen to him? That's the unnerving story line behind a post on the liberal Think Progress website.
About two years ago, Joe Olson was pulled over by a St. Anthony Police Department squad car for running a red light in Falcon Heights, the same Minneapolis suburb where Philando Castile was shot to death by a cop Wednesday evening. Olson put his hands on the steering wheel and waited for the officer to approach his driver's side window when he heard a voice emanate from behind his head.
Joe Olson has been called the "godfather of Minnesota gun rights." The Roseville lawyer helped write the Minnesota Citizens Personal Protection Act in 2003, the conceal carry law that's resulted in permits for some 230,000 state residents.
About six months later, Olson — a retired Minnesota law professor who played a key role in drafting Minnesota's firearms permit law and now serves as the chairman of the Minnesota Gun Owners Civil Rights Alliance — scheduled an appointment with St. Anthony Police Department Chief John Ohl to share his concerns. (The city of Falcon Heights contracts with the St. Anthony PD for police services.) But Olson said Chief Ohl didn't take him seriously.
In the wake of Castile's death, the St. Anthony PD does indeed have a huge problem — one that Chief Ohl refused to see, right up until his retirement from the force from late May.
It's critical to emphasize that the facts of what led up to Castile's fatal shooting still remain to be determined. But Olson apparently flagged a potential problem well in advance.

Q: Under these conditions, determine the polynomial in two variables. Let $f(x,y)=(x^2+y^2+2)^{xy}$ defined on $\mathbb R^2$ and let $g(x,y)$ be a degree $2$ polynomial in two variables.
Suppose $\displaystyle\lim_{(x,y)\to (0,0)} \dfrac{g(x,y)-f(x,y)}{x^2+y^2}=0$. Then, determine $g(x,y)$.

Here is what I did so far.
Let $g(x,y)=a_0 x^2+a_1 y^2 +a_3 xy + a_4 x+ a_5 y+ a_6.$
From supposition, $\lim_{(x,y)\to (0,0)}g(x,y)-f(x,y)=0$ has to hold. And
since $\lim g(x,y)=a_6, \lim f(x,y)=1$, I get $a_6=1.$
If I use polar coordinates,
\begin{align}
&\dfrac{g(x,y)-f(x,y)}{x^2+y^2}\\
&=\dfrac
{r^2(a_0 \cos^2 \theta + a_1 \sin^2 \theta +a_3 \cos\theta \sin \theta)+ r(a_4 \cos \theta + a_5 \sin \theta)+1-(r^2+2)^{r^2 \cos \theta \sin \theta}}
{r^2}\\
&=a_0 \cos^2 \theta + a_1 \sin^2 \theta +a_3 \cos\theta \sin \theta+\dfrac{1}{r}(a_4 \cos \theta + a_5 \sin \theta)+ \dfrac{1-(r^2+2)^{r^2 \cos \theta \sin \theta}}{r^2}
\end{align}
When $r\to 0$ with $\theta=0,$ this has to converge to $0$ so
$a_0+\dfrac{a_4}{r}+\dfrac{1-1}{r^2}\to 0$ as $r\to 0$.
Thus $a_4=a_0=0.$
Similarly, when $r\to 0$ with $\theta=\frac{\pi}{2},$ this has to converge to $0$ so
$a_1+\dfrac{a_5}{r}+\dfrac{1-1}{r^2}\to 0$ as $r\to 0$.
Thus $a_5=a_1=0$.
(I'm not sure the argument above is correct.)
Thus, all that is left is to determine $a_3.$
Now, $g(x,y)=a_3 xy +1$. I'm stacked here.
How can I determine $a_3$ ?

A: Recall that for $t\to 0$, $e^t=1+t+O(t^2)$ and $\ln(1+t)=t+o(t)$.
Therefore,for $(x,y)\to (0,0)$,
\begin{align}(x^2+y^2+2)^{xy}&=\exp(xy\ln(x^2+y^2+2))\\
&=1+xy\ln(x^2+y^2+2)+O(x^2y^2)\\
&=1+xy\left(\ln(2)+\ln\left(1+\frac{x^2+y^2}{2}\right)\right)+o(x^2+y^2)\\
&=1+xy\left(\ln(2)+\frac{x^2+y^2}{2}+o(x^2+y^2)\right)+o(x^2+y^2)\\
&=1+\ln(2)xy+o(x^2+y^2).\end{align}
Hence $g(x,y)=1+\ln(2)xy$. In particular $a_3=\ln(2)$.

A FSA (Flexible Spending Account) is a health care savings plan that an employer sponsors for their employees. It's usually considered an employee benefit and is similar to a 401k retirement account. The matching funds you place into the FSA account, along with the interest on the account, are tax-free. The funds are used to help pay for eligible medical expenses not covered under an employee's health care insurance plan.
As a business owner, the IRS states you can't contribute to an FSA plan if you own 2% or more of the company and are an LLC, PC, sole proprietor, partner, or have a schedule S corporation. If you own a C-corporation, however, you may participate in an FSA plan because the IRS considers you a W-2 common law employee.
A Health Savings Account (HSA) is similar to a personal savings account, and it's typically paired with a HDHP (high deductible healthcare plan). Employers who provide an HDHP to employees often offer this additional plan to help offset the higher deductible of the health insurance plan.
As a business owner, you aren't allowed to make a pre-tax contribution to an HSA. However, you are allowed to make contributions with your after-tax dollars. This means you may deduct this expense on your personal income tax, but not as a business deduction.
A Health Reimbursement Arrangement account is an employer-funded health plan used to reimburse employees for medical expenses not covered through their standard healthcare insurance plan.
As a business owner, you fund the plan by making the distributions, which are tax deductions for your business. Although you can participate in the plan for tracking purposes, unless you operate as a C-corporation, you can't receive your reimbursements tax-free.
There are a lot of nuances around when business owners participate in an FSA, HSA, or HRA. Navigating FSAs, HSAs, and HRAs, can be confusing so be sure to check with a tax professional to make sure you find the plan that works best for your business. Still have questions? Check out our health care glossary for more information.
