New York: Nagel & Weingaertner, [1851]. Hand-coloured lithograph after Hanson, titled below the image. Expert restoration, closing tears into the image. Sheet size: 19 1/2 x 26 1/4 inches.
The first America's Cup: a scarce hand coloured lithographed view of the winning yacht which gave its name to the cup.
In 1851, the Royal Yacht Squadron proposed a race around the Isle of Wight. A group of New York Yacht Club members, led by Commodore John Cox Stevens, built a yacht designed to compete in such races. Designed by Steers and Co. and captained by Richard Brown, the yacht America would win the race by eighteen minutes, giving its name to one of the oldest and best-known trophies of the sport: the America's Cup. This lithograph and lithographer are unrecorded by Harry T. Peters; we find no other extant examples of this rare print.

After a short stint with this other former team, Chicago Aftershock Drew Templeton is back with LA Infamous.
Drew left Infamous at the end of the 2016 season to rejoin is former team Chicago Aftershock. Templeton along with a Ronnie Dizon and Jon Woodley were all part of the rebuilding of Aftershock. Almost everyone expected Aftershock to perform well in 2016 but the victories never took shape and the team struggled, with their best performance was in Dallas taking 7th place. The team has since lost a slue of players: Dizon, Woodley, Patient, Templeton, Velez and McKenna have all left the team.
While Aftershock are looking beat up, Infamous is look strong going into 2017. They have lost Brad McCurley but gained Drew Templeton a fair swap in my eyes. Neither one is much better or worse than each other. Now Infamous just needs to win World Cup!

Q: Asymptotic distribution of $\sqrt{n}(\hat\theta_n-\theta)$ to determine the efficiency of $\hat\theta_n$? I want to know the asymptotic distribution of $\sqrt{n}(\hat\theta_n-\theta)$ to determine the efficiency of $\hat\theta_n$.
I know there is a theorem with lots of assumptions that immediately concludes that it is efficient and the distribution if $N(0,I(\theta)^{-1})$ but I'm wondering if there is another approach?

I have that $\hat\theta_n = X_{(1)}$ and I have computed $F_{\hat\theta_n}(x)$ and $f_{\hat\theta_n}(x)$ already.
$$f_\theta (x) = e^{\theta-x}1_{x\geq \theta}$$
$$F_{\hat\theta_n} (x) = \left[1-e^{n(\theta-x)} \right] 1_{x\geq \theta}$$
$$f_{\hat\theta_n} (x) = \left[ne^{n(\theta-x)} \right] 1_{x\geq \theta}$$
Is there a way to continue from here that uses the delta method or otherwise?

This is my attempt: We want the distribution of $Y_n = \sqrt{n}(\hat\theta_n-\theta)$. We can rewrite this as $\frac{Y_n}{\sqrt{n}}+\theta = \hat\theta_n$
$$f_{Y_n} (x) = f_{\hat\theta_n} \left(\frac{Y_n}{\sqrt{n}}+\theta\right)$$
$$= ne^{-\sqrt{n}Y_n}1_{Y_n \geq 0}$$
I don't know how to continue from here. I don't see how to arrive from this to a normal approximation so that I can figure out efficiency?! I also thought about using the Delta Method but it seems like it is not applicable in this case?!

A: Part of the sufficient conditions for asymptotical normality of the MLE is that all models in the family have the same support.  This fails in your example because it is $(\theta,\infty)$.
In particular this means that $\hat \theta_n = X_{(1)} > \theta$ and so $Y_n > 0$.  Thus it cannot be asymptotically normal (other than being degenerate, in case you consider that "normal").
We can compute the distribution more explicitly.  As you correctly noted we have
$$
\mathbb{P}(Y_n < y) = \mathbb{P}(X_{(1)} < \theta +  y/\sqrt{n}).
$$
(Note you can't just put $\theta +  y/\sqrt{n}$ straight into the density for $X_{(1)}$ - you need to differentiate the expression above and you'd find an extra $1/\sqrt{n}$).
This comes out as
$$
\mathbb{P}(Y_n < y) = 1 - \exp(-y \sqrt{n}),
$$
i.e. Exponential($\sqrt{n}$).  This is not asymptotically normal.  The variance is $1/n$.  Assuming efficiency is defined by the ratio to the Cramer Rao lower bound, we must compute the Fisher Information $I(\theta)$ and examine the ratio
$$
n/I(\theta)
$$
The Fisher information is
$$
I(\theta) = \mathbb{E}[l'(X;\theta)^2] \\
= \mathbb{E}\left[ \left(\frac{d}{d\theta}\left(n\theta - \sum_i X_i\right)\right)^2\right] = n^2.
$$

A: If in fact $F_{\hat\theta_n} (x) = \left[1-e^{n(\theta-x)} \right] 1_{x\geq \theta}$ then defining $Y_n = n(\hat{\theta}_n - \theta)$ shows that
$$
F_{Y_n}(y) = P(\hat{\theta}_n \le \frac{y}{n} + \theta) = 1 - e^{-y}.
$$
So $Y_n \sim \text{Exp}(1)$ exactly, not asymptotically, $\hat{\theta}$ converges faster to $\theta$ than root $n$, and you don't need to appeal to any results (just use CDFs). However, do note that I am defining $Y_n$ differently than you are.
Also, the Delta method is typically used when, say a different estimator $\hat{\theta}_n$ is asymptotically Normal. So you assume that $\sqrt{n}(\hat{\theta} - \theta)$ converges already. Then you can use it if you want the asymptotic distribution of some transformed estimator $f(\hat{\theta}_n)$, where $f$ is a function with certain requirements. Typically $\sqrt{n}(f(\hat{\theta}_n) - f(\theta))$ will also be asymptotically Normal with mean $0$ again but with a different variance depending on $f$. Even though it's very popular, I'm not sure it can be of much use here.

Novel neurotransmitters effectively cross the blood-brain barrier
Written by Robby Berman on August 5, 2020 — Fact checked by Alexandra Sanfins, Ph.D.
Researchers have found a seemingly safe way to administer drugs directly into the brain: through a previously unknown type of neurotransmitters. They tested this approach in mice.
A previously unknown type of neurotransmitter (chemical messenger) may provide a safe method of getting medication across the blood-brain barrier.
The blood-brain barrier poses a crucial challenge for doctors hoping to deliver drugs and other therapeutic substances directly to the brain.
A new study from researchers at Tufts University in Boston, MA, describes a way of getting medication safely across the blood-brain barrier.
The researchers found that certain neurotransmitters can help lipid-based nanoparticles pass through the blood-brain barrier and into the brain.
Corresponding author, Tufts biomedical engineer Qiaobing Xu says that:
"We can deliver a wide range of molecules by packaging them into the lipid-based nanoparticles without chemically modifying the drugs themselves. We can also achieve delivery across the blood-brain barrier without disrupting the integrity of the barrier."
The study appears in Science Advances.
The challenge of the blood-brain barrier
The blood-brain barrier consists of a blood vessel lining of endothelial cells that keeps foreign molecules from escaping from the blood vessels and entering the brain fluid where they could affect neurons and other brain cells. The barrier is highly selective about the non-native molecules it allows into the brain, and that includes therapeutic substances.
While small molecule or macromolecule drugs have the potential to treat brain tumors, infections, neurogenerative disorders, and stroke, the presence of the blood-brain barrier makes it difficult for doctors to administer such therapies.
Scientists have attempted various workarounds, and none have proven sufficiently safe or effective. Direct injection of compounds into the brain, as well as efforts to force 'leaks' through the barrier, carry risks, such as neurotoxicity, infection, and tissue damage.
Researchers have looked into the use of "carriers," such as monoclonal antibodies and modified viruses, that travel into the brain, taking therapeutic molecules with them.
However, cost and safety concerns accompany this approach. Scientists have also investigated a similar use of polymers, nanocapsules, and nanoparticles with some success. However, adapting these materials for such use is often complicated.
The 'door opening' neurotransmitter
However, the blood-brain barrier does allow certain neurotransmitters into the brain. Xu and his colleagues have developed a system that uses a particular class of neurotransmitters as a means to traverse the barrier, carrying molecules into the brains of mice.
The authors of the study began by attaching one of these neurotransmitters to fat-, or lipid-like molecules. Next, they doped these combined neurotransmitter-lipidoids, or NT-lipidoids, into lipid-nanoparticles (LNPs).
LNPs are small lipid bubbles into which the scientists inserted therapeutic molecules. The scientists can inject the NT-lipidoid LNPs and the molecules they contain into the bloodstream intravenously.
When the LNPs arrive at the blood-brain barrier, their neurotransmitter provides entry, delivering the molecules they carry directly and safely to the brain's neurons and other cells.
Co-author Feihe Ma notes that "It's simple, effective, and potentially broadly applicable — we can modify the container for the drug, and by adding the NT-lipidoid, it's like attaching an address label for delivery into the brain."
Researchers from the Xu laboratory report the successful delivery of the following NT-lipidoid LNPs:
amphotericin B, a small-molecule antifungal drug
a tau antisense oligonucleotide that inhibits the production of the tau proteins associated with Alzheimer's disease
GFP-Cre, a gene-editing protein.
The team was able to confirm the successful targeting of these payloads to the mice's brains. In the case of the tau antisense oligonucleotide, they observed a reduction in tau proteins.
The GFP-Cre protein was the first-ever instance of genome editing of neuronal cells initiated intravenously.
In addition to the substances tested for the study, Xu expects that scientists can use the LNPs to deliver a variety of therapeutic substances to the brain, including DNA and large-enzyme complexes.
"The power of our method is that it is extremely versatile and relatively non-disruptive," says Xu.

"The Experimental Exercise Of Freedom"
MOCA Geffen Contemporary
This exhibition offered the perfect opportunity to overturn clichés about modernism in the periphery. Featuring the work of five of the most relevant South American avant-garde artists of the postwar period, Lygia Clark, Hélio Oiticica, Gego, Mira Schendel, and Mathias Goeritz, the show included about one hundred pieces from the late '50s to the '90s. But what the curators hoped to demonstrate—that the South American avant-garde developed in close dialogue with the legacy of Constructivism; and that through "the creative experience" the artist reconstitutes "his or her own subjectivity" and reconnects art and life (an idealism more typical of the historical avant-garde than the troubled and fragile humanism of postwar art in South America)—was inconsistent with the work on view.
The Constructivist premise holds only for Clark, Oiticica, and Gego. The first two were part of the Neoconcrete group in Rio de Janeiro, which aimed to destabilize the mechanism of the gestalt-based abstraction favored by São Paulo's Concrete artists. Gego, who fled Nazi Germany for Caracas in 1939, emerged in the '60s with a practice critical of the banal monumentality and optical games of Kinetic art. Her seminal piece, Reticulàrea, 1969, a large environment of delicate, irregular meshes of metal that hang from the ceiling, is meant to disrupt the idealized Cartesian space of rationalism (the work was unfortunately not included in the show). Like Clark's Bichos (Beasts), 1960–63, hinged metal plates that the spectator manipulates, and Oiticica's Grand Nucleus, 1960, labyrinths of colored wood panels for viewers to navigate, Gego's Reticulàrea introduces the body into Constructivism's utopian spaces.
But the show, by forgoing these artists' early works, failed to establish such connections. Clark's mid-'60s and '70s "propositions" were participatory projects intended to be carried out by the viewer. These pieces, like Rede de elàstico (Elastic net), 1973—a gridded rubber structure that becomes distorted as participants move through it—embody her concern with the dynamic interactions between inside and outside, self and other. The '90s reenactment/exhibition of such works, which are meant to be manipulated by what Clark called the "collective body" and which are clearly linked to the political and social turmoil of the late '60s, runs the risk of becoming a didactic demonstration. The propositions look like misplaced objects, unexpressive residue of a once-radical practice. Oiticica's reinstallation of Eden, 1969/1999, an environment of sand and tents for viewers to enter, addressed the status of leisure in society. Though beautifully produced, it was difficult to relate this work to the curatorial premises or to the rest of the show, partly because of the exhibition's organization: A separate section was accorded each artist.
Schendel, who came to Brazil from Zurich in the '40s, and Goeritz, a German émigré in Mexico, stand at almost polar extremes from one another. During the '60s Schendel developed a powerful body of work that, like those of Gego, Clark, and Oiticica, was predicated on contingency and the precariousness of structures. Her Droguinhas (Little scraps/nothings), 1964–65, are bands of rice paper twisted and knotted to create nonstructures that—like the aluminum rods that zigzag and cascade toward the floor in Gego's 1970 Chorros (Streams)—emphasize accumulation over construction. Goeritz's Torres de Ciudad Satélite (Satellite city towers), 1957–58, five giant isosceles prisms made of reinforced concrete painted in different colors, is representative of his expressionist, rather than Constructivist, aspiration for a colossal architecture.
The show was laudable in assembling some crucial works. But especially for viewers unfamiliar with the South American avant-garde, the associations among the artists remained loose, the curatorial proposal unclear. It will be left to other exhibitions to address the category more astutely.

The Chase Park Royal Sonesta St. Louis is a historic hotel and apartment complex located at 212 N. Kingshighway Boulevard in the Central West End, St. Louis, Missouri, USA. It consists of two buildings - the Chase Hotel, built in 1922 by developer Chase Ullman, and the Art Deco-style Park Plaza tower, built in 1929 and today housing condominiums. The complex also features a cinema and several restaurants and bars.
The hotel replaced nearby the Buckingham Hotel as the most luxurious hotel in the city. From 1990 through 2001, The Chase wing was closed. The Park Plaza stayed open. The Chase Park Plaza is part of the National Trust for Historic Preservation's Historic Hotels of America program.
The hotel joined the Sonesta hotels chain on May 18, 2017.
Jackie Robinson was an American Major League Baseball (MLB) second baseman who became the first African American to play in the major leagues in the modern era. Robinson broke the baseball color line when the Brooklyn Dodgers started him at first base on April 15, 1947.
In 1953, Robinson openly criticized segregated hotels and restaurants that served the Dodger organization. A number of these establishments integrated as a result, including the five-star Chase Park Hotel in St. Louis.
The Chase was also famous for hosting a wrestling program called Wrestling at the Chase (1959–1983), produced and televised by KPLR-TV channel 11, whose operations were in the hotel and the adjoining Chase Apartments, all owned by Harold Koplar. Many famous wrestlers, including St. Louis native, Lou Thesz, and Buddy Rogers wrestled on the program.

Truck Loader Walkthrough
Truck Loader is an entertaining racing game that challenges you to complete the puzzle presented to you in each level as fast as you can in an attempt to get a high score. While it isn't a racing game in the traditional sense of the word, the challenging puzzles make this one far too much fun to miss. Instead of racing against other trucks to try to get to the end of the course first, you're racing against the clock and against yourself. There is no time limit, but if you hope to get a high score, you will need to move quickly. As you progress, though, that gets harder and harder to do. Each new level brings a new challenge and new obstacles you'll need to get around. The challenge only gets harder as you go and that's what makes the game so interesting.
Truck Loader is so difficult because making it through all of the twenty levels in the game will take a lot of careful thinking, especially when you reach levels in which you have to deal with fragile boxes (marked with a wine glass icon) or have to place boxes on the truck right side up (marked with arrows). It can be hard to maneuver the boom to get the boxes in properly, but you have to make sure you do. If you are too rough with the fragile boxes, you'll break the contents and will not pass the level. If you don't place boxes on the truck the right way up, you will not pass the level. Ensuring you have everything loaded on the truck properly is vital, but can also be difficult. Pay attention to the indicators in the back of the truck and how they're laid out. Fill the slots in the back of the truck first. For example, if the boxes in the back are smaller square boxes and there is a larger rectangle box in front of it, put the smaller squares in first and the rectangle next. It'll be much easier, even if you have to move the rectangle around a bit first.
Truck Loader isn't a typical racing game in many respects. Your goal isn't to get around a track and come in first. Your goal is simply to solve the puzzle to move on to the next level. That's really what makes it so appealing for fans of racing games. You're still in control of a truck but in order to make it through this game, you're going to have to think carefully about every move. You're going to have to look at your obstacles and your level objective and plan out a strategy. Because there are new obstacles in just about every level, your strategy is going to need to change continually. The good thing is, your objective is almost always the same - load the boxes on the truck. As long as you pay attention to the position of your boxes, get the fragile boxes in place without breaking the contents and get the boxes that have arrows right side up, you should do fine.
Overall, Truck Loader is an excellent racing game that challenges you to do more than just race. While there's no time limit on how long it takes you to complete a level, the faster you get through the game, the better score you'll get. That's really the only thing that classifies this game as a racing game and is also what makes it so challenging. When you finish your game, you're going to want to play again to try to get a better score - just like you'd want to with any good racing game. While this game is more about strategy than about actual racing it's a treat for any fan of racing games tired of playing the same old game over and over again. The best thing about this game is that anyone can play it. Newcomers to racing games who feel overwhelmed with the other games in the genre can play this one with little trouble. More experienced players will find a good challenge in this game and will love trying something out of the ordinary. As long as you're careful, you should be able to complete all twenty levels in the game.

"I … write from character and from story … But one of the things very present in my mind—once I realized I had a book—is class. It's as important to this book as is the Great Migration, this notion of the way, in a pre-civil rights world, where no one had any money, how we decided on class. Which had everything to do with what neighborhood you lived in, or how light or dark you were, and your diction—all these kinds of things." –Ayana Mathis, The Brooklyn Rail, April 2013.

Fraser River journey highlights watershed's importance
Ben Bengtson / North Shore News
North Vancouver resident Jeffrey Gibbs is one of a dozen participants in a recent Rivershed Society of BC program on sustainable living leadership. As part of the program, the group spent a month travelling the entire Fraser River. photo supplied Jeffrey Gibbs
For a month they paddled – and paddled and paddled and paddled.
The group travelled 1,400 kilometres up and down and along the mighty Fraser River, carving the same path that salmon one day seek when setting forth to fulfil their life's purpose, en route from headwaters to open ocean.

The group travelled by canoe, by raft, and occasionally on foot. At night, they camped and rested their weary bodies under the stars. Early the next morning, it would all start again. If the sublime, crashing flow of water ever threatened to steer the group off course, they still endeavoured to keep their eyes on the prize – even if they were sopping wet.
"Those of us growing up in Vancouver, we experienced the Fraser River as almost an obstacle more than anything else. To actually understand the whole river, to go to essentially its source in the Rockies …" Jeffrey Gibbs trails off, lost in contemplation of the grand journey he's recently undertaken and in awe of one of the world's – if not the world's – greatest salmon rivers.
For a month spanning mid-July to mid-August, Gibbs was one of a dozen participants in Rivershed Society of BC's sustainable living leadership program. Beginning in the Mount Robson region where Alberta meets B.C., participants set forth on a journey along the Fraser River which would take them through 10 of B.C.'s 14 biogeoclimatic zones and a multitude of communities, all of which are in some manner connected to the vast watershed, or so the group learned.
The purpose of Rivershed Society's program was simple: to teach participants about watershed conservation, protection and restoration, and educate them on how to be effective campaigners when it comes to reducing our ecological footprint.
"We need to have a lot of people involved," advises Gibbs, a North Vancouver resident and professional photographer, writer and videographer, a few days after returning to shore. "If all the participants in these programs do projects that involve a number of people in each project, then you end up getting a ripple effect of a lot more people engaged."

Every day started the same, according to Gibbs, but ended with the group always having learned something new and essential. As they paddled from area to area, such as from Tete Jaune to Crescent Spur or getting a layover day in Goat River valley or the Xatsull First Nation, they were always joined by a host of facilitators, educators and community leaders who imparted their knowledge on watersheds, the environment and their serene backyards.
"We're learning things about how there's a lot of need to restore damaged areas of the watershed. We might visit with a specialist who knows about salmon streams and how to rehabilitate them. We'd stop somewhere and meet a specialist, or they would join us for a day and we would learn and then we would carry on the journey," says Gibbs.
Whenever Gibbs mentions the Fraser River or the watershed, he can't help but insert salmon into the conversation. Salmon is "just a part of our lifestyle here" growing up in B.C., says Gibbs – the journey of chinook and coho was hard to ignore over the course of the sustainable living leadership program.
In late June, a landslide near Big Bar, a remote, rugged canyon in the Interior north of Lillooet, was reported. Huge pieces of rock from a 125-metre cliff crashed into the Fraser River, creating a large waterfall. The resulting obstruction caused salmon migrating upstream to be unable to naturally proceed beyond the landslide – and powerless to reach their spawning grounds.
A concerted effort involving federal and provincial levels of government, as well as First Nations, was implemented, with organizers going as far as airlifting migrating salmon past the obstruction using helicopters. At press time, migrating chinook and sockeye salmon have started to be able to swim through the landslide unaided following a decrease in water levels and crews successfully managing to shift some of the huge boulders, according to Canadian Press.
"Salmon are in a crisis and so if we're going to save salmon we have to do a lot of things. A lot of their spawning channels have been destroyed. We need to rebuild and we need to restore landscapes which have been destroyed by fires, by mines, by other impacts, and that's going to be expensive and it's going to take a lot of communities to do that," says Gibbs.
While the Big Bar landslide could have potentially prevented millions of migrating Fraser River salmon from reaching their spawning grounds, there's still the risk that a returning run of 1.5-million pink salmon won't be able to get past the landslide, Canadian Press reports.

Gibbs experienced his Fraser River journey through two lenses: on one hand he was – and is – concerned about the degradation of the watershed and the environment more broadly, and on the other hand he was simply in awe of the river and its surrounding environment's beauty despite everything.
Describing a vast stretch of waterway linking the river from Williams Lake south to Lillooet that took days to complete, Gibbs talks about the lack of towns and abundance of "world-class scenery" along the way. He describes huge canyons and sage bush and "tabletop-looking mountains" which pepper the old village sites of the First Nations that were there. As they paddled, they saw big horn sheep, grizzly bears and "all this presence of Indigenous history."
He wants to encourage people to treasure the river and its abundance of life and importance for a multitude of communities in B.C. Gibbs notes that among his favourite workshops the group endured while paddling from Point A to Point B was one on how to be an effective campaigner for creating projects to support watersheds such as the Fraser River. He's in the process of developing a photography contest that'll encourage residents along the Fraser watershed – from the Pacific Ocean to the Rockies – to submit pictures of their communities.
"There's a need to involve people in understanding the threats and the solutions to healing and protecting the Fraser watershed. The idea is the photo contest will engage people to take photos where they live throughout the watershed," he says.
Maybe his photo contest will generate some empathy for the watershed and the B.C. environment as a whole, he says. "I'm looking at it in terms of the global issues that are going on all over the world. We need to look at how do we restore the places that we've damaged."

Flashes and floaters are very common. Almost everyone experiences them at one time or another. They become more frequent as we age. In rare cases, a doctor's exam may reveal a more serious problem called a retinal tear or retinal hole. Because of this, it is important to have your eyes examined on a regular basis and always inform your doctor if you're experiencing flashes or floaters.
Flashes of light are caused by tension between the vitreous gel in the eye and the retina. As the gel pulls on the retina, the retina is stimulated, sending signals to the brain that are interpreted as flashes of light. As a person ages, the vitreous gel liquefies and separates from the surface of the retina. Imperfections in the gel may cast shadows on the retina that appear as fine dots, strands and strings in one's vision. Since these imperfections often take on a floating appearance, they are called floaters.

New Atlantic hones stage act, finds musical focus
Posted on June 1, 2007 by medleyville in Features // 0 Comments
A singer's voice can't be 100 percent every night, and at some shows, it can be close to a whisper.
That's when a singer has to rely on showmanship.
Last month during the Bamboozle festival in East Rutherford, N.J., New Atlantic singer Giovanni Gianni, who was suffering from a sinus infection, had to rely on his stage smarts to get through his band's set.
"I had almost no voice at all," Gianni recalls. "I tried to sing the best I could, and the only thing I could think of was to ask the kids to sing as loud as they could."
It wasn't the only time he involved the crowd when his sinuses troubled him.
At another show when his voice was fading, Gianni — realizing he "had to do something cool" — took a stage dive and had the crowd carry him back to New Atlantic's merchandise table.
"[It seemed like] the kids thought it was the greatest thing they had ever seen in their life," he says.
Gianni has seen his share of audiences in recent years. New Atlantic — previously known as Glendora and co-founded by Gianni and guitarist Christopher Hindley when they were students at the College of New Jersey — has toured the United States with regularity, and this spring, the band has been on the road supporting its debut album, The Streets, The Sounds, and the Love (Eyeball Records).
New Atlantic had met with other labels, but Gianni says Eyeball was the first "that really threw everything down on the table and said, 'We want to sign you tomorrow, if we can.' They weren't beating around the bush."
The quintet went to Seattle last fall to record The Streets, The Sounds, and the Love, which was released in April. Gianni credits co-producers Casey Bates and Bobby Darling for putting New Atlantic on track to be a "legit pop-rock band."
"Bobby said to me, 'I want New Atlantic to be the Third Eye Blind of 2007,' " recalls Gianni.

While the process won't take too much time, it's a bit more complicated than it should be.
Whether you have been using Hyper-V since the days of Windows Server 2008 or you are new to Hyper-V, the day will eventually come when your current hardware platform will be inadequate for handling your VM workload. So what can you do when that time comes? What is the easiest way of moving virtual machines to more capable hardware?
When it comes to hardware migrations, there is good news and there is bad news. The bad news is that there is no such thing as a one-size-fits-all migration strategy. The good news is that Microsoft gives you several different options for moving virtual machines. Each of these options has its advantages and disadvantages.
One of the most important things that you need to know about VM migrations is that Hyper-V virtual machines try to use advanced CPU features. As such, migrating a VM from one hardware platform to another can fail if the CPUs are too different. For example, I once tried migrating a VM from a server with a six-core CPU to a server with an eight-core CPU, only to find that the migration failed due to differences in the CPU architecture.
Fortunately, there is a workaround to this problem. You can temporarily disable Hyper-V's use of advanced CPU features and then reenable support for advanced CPU features once the migration is complete.
To toggle advanced CPU on and off, open the Hyper-V Manager, right click on the VM that you want to migrate, and choose the Settings command from the shortcut menu. When the Settings dialog box appears, navigate through the console tree to Processor| Compatibility. As you can see in Figure 1, there is a checkbox that you can select when you need to migrate the VM to a server that is equipped with a different processor version. Don't forget to deselect this checkbox after the migration is complete.
[Click on image for larger view.] Figure 1. You may need to enable processor compatibility prior to moving a VM.
Migrating a Hyper-V virtual machine to a new host can also be problematic if the new host uses a different virtual network configuration. Remember, Hyper-V VMs connect to the network through a virtual switch. Ideally, you should create a Hyper-V virtual switch on the new host prior to migrating any Hyper-V VMs. This virtual switch should use exactly the same name as the virtual switch that the VM is currently using. If such a virtual switch does not exist on the new host then the VM will lose network connectivity until you manually reassociate it with a new virtual switch.
As previously mentioned, there are a number of different ways to move a Hyper-V VM from one host to another. Here are some of the more common migration methods.
Backup and restore: One method involves using backup and restore. This method is probably the most tedious of the commonly used migration methods, but the nice thing about using the backup and restore method is that the original copy of the VM is left intact. You could conceivably back up the VM, shut it down, and then restore the backup on the new host. If anything goes wrong, you can easily power up the original copy of the VM.
The biggest disadvantage to this method is that it requires the VM to be taken offline during the migration process. As such, this method might not be suitable for some virtual machines.
Live migration: Another technique that you may be able to use is Hyper-V live migration. Live migration moves a running virtual machine from one host to another. Live migration is most often used to move virtual machines among hosts within a cluster, but under the right circumstances you can live migrate a VM from one cluster to another. However, doing so means removing the VM as a clustered resource and then performing a shared nothing live migration. The VM must then be defined as a clustered resource within the destination cluster.
Replication: One last method that you can use involves using the Hyper-V replication feature. In my experience, this method is often the least problematic. The basic idea is to enable replication for a virtual machine and then replicate a VM to a different cluster. When it comes time to perform the migration, you can shut down the virtual machine and then perform a planned failover. Unfortunately, this method does involve a little bit of down time, but the required down time is usually minimal.

That kabocha squash from last week? At least tripled in size!
And I have no idea where this Kazakh melon came from!
These Ronde de Nice squash are also huge after the weekend!
What's growing well in your garden?

Hamer v. New York Railways Co., 244 U.S. 266 (1917)
Hamer v. New York Railways Company
With the delivery of a mortgage to secure bonds of one corporation, there was delivered to the trustee stamped on each bond a guaranty by another corporation whereby the latter guaranteed
"to the Trustee of the within-mentioned mortgage, for the benefit of the holders thereof, punctual payment of the principal of the within bond and the interest thereon . . . according to the tenor of
the several coupons belonging thereto."
Upon foreclosing the mortgage, the trustee obtained judgment against the guarantor company for a deficiency.
(1) That whether the guaranty were treated as having created an aggregation of as many obligations as there were bonds, each constituting a separate contract between the guarantor and the respective bondholder, or a single obligation for the benefit of the bondholders collectively, in either case there was a merger of the original cause or causes of action in the single judgment recovered by the trustee.
(2) The judgment being held as an unit by the trustee, for the benefit of all the bondholders, a suit to enforce it by a majority of them, though alleged to be on behalf also of all others similarly situated, could not be maintained without joining the trustee as a necessary party.
(3) In such suit, for the purpose of testing the district court's jurisdiction on the basis of diverse citizenship, the trustee, though made a defendant, must be realigned as a plaintiff, no hostility on its part appearing beyond a refusal to institute the action, assignable to no other motive than to aid the federal jurisdiction, and its real attitude being friendly as evinced by its answer.
One corporation, after guaranteeing bonds of another, passed into a receivership in the district court which ended in foreclosure of its own bonds and sale of its property, without reservation in the decree of liens or similar rights or power of the court concerning them. Meanwhile, by independent proceedings in a state court, the bonds of the second company were foreclosed and a deficiency judgment was rendered against the first company on the guaranty, which judgment, being presented as a claim in the district court proceedings, was rejected because the first company's liability to pay it was contingent at the date set for proving claims in that court. Held that a suit brought later in the district court upon the ground that, by its decree, the equities of persons interested in the deficiency judgment were wrongly ignored, and seeking to have that judgment impressed as a lien upon the property so sold, was not within the district court's jurisdiction as a suit ancillary to the foreclosure proceedings in which its decree was rendered.
APPEAL FROM TUE DISTRICT COURT OF THE UNITED STATES
FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK
MR. JUSTICE BRANDEIS delivered the opinion of the court:
This appeal presents the single question whether the district court erred in dismissing the bill for want of jurisdiction on the ground that the controversy involved was not one between citizens of different states. The question was duly certified in conformity to § 238 of the Judicial Code. The facts are these:
The Twenty-eighth & Twenty-ninth Street Crosstown Railroad Company, of New York city, issued, on October 1, 1896, bonds to the amount of $1,500,000, and secured them by a mortgage of its property to the Central Trust Company. The Metropolitan Street Railway Company, having previously leased the Crosstown Railroad, delivered, with the mortgage stamped on each of the bonds, a guaranty to the Trust Company in the following terms:
"FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the Metropolitan Street Railway Company hereby guarantees to the trustee of the within-mentioned mortgage, for the benefit of the holders thereof, punctual payment of the principal of the within bond and the interest thereon at the time and in the manner therein specified and according to the tenor of the several coupons belonging thereto."
In September, 1907, the Metropolitan Company passed into the hands of receivers appointed by the Circuit (now District) Court of the United States for the Southern District of New York. Soon thereafter, default was made in the payment of interest on the Crosstown bonds. The customary bondholders' committee was formed, and 1,373 of the 1,500 bonds outstanding were deposited with it. At its request, the Trust Company declared the bonds due and brought suit in the supreme court of New York to foreclose the mortgage. The court, by special order, granted an application of the Trust Company for permission to liquidate, in the foreclosure suit, its claim against
the Metropolitan Company on the guaranty. For that purpose, the Metropolitan Company was joined as defendant, and a deficiency judgment for $1,745,344.21 was entered against it on February 20, 1912, in favor of the Trust Company.
The property of the Metropolitan Company had meanwhile been administered by receivers appointed by the District Court of the United States for the Southern District of New York, and the several committees representing its bondholders, stockholders, and creditors had adopted a plan and agreement for the reorganization of that company. Pursuant thereto, its franchise and assets had been, on January 1, 1912, transferred to a new corporation, the New York Railways Company, and the securities and cash issued in exchange therefor were distributed among security holders, creditors, and otherwise, as in the plan provided. No provision was made in the plan for adjusting the liability of the Metropolitan Company arising out of its guaranty of the Crosstown bonds. The district court refused to allow the claim on the deficiency judgment to be proved in the Metropolitan receivership, because the date as of which claims against the property were ordered to be proved was January 15, 1908, and the claim on the guaranty was at that date contingent merely. Consequently neither the committee nor the Trust Company representing the Crosstown bondholders assented to the plan for reorganizing the Metropolitan Company.
In October, 1913, the members of the Crosstown bondholders' committee, suing on behalf of themselves and "all other similarly situated bondholders," brought suit in the District Court of the United States for the Southern District of New York against the New York Company, the Metropolitan Company, and the Central Trust Company, to enforce out of the property of the New York Company satisfaction of the liability of the Metropolitan Company
arising out of its guaranty. The bill set forth facts to bring the case within the rule declared in Northern Pacific Ry. Co. v. Boyd, 228 U. S. 482, and Kansas City Southern Ry. Co. v. Guardian Trust Co., 240 U. S. 166, and, as reason for the suit's being brought in the name of the bondholders, alleged the following:
"That the defendant Central Trust Company of New York holds the said judgment against the defendant Metropolitan Street Railway Company, amounting to $1,745,344.21, for the benefit of and as the trustee for the plaintiffs and the other holders of said bonds of the Twenty-eighth and Twenty-ninth Streets Crosstown Railroad Company, hereinbefore described, and that the reason why this action is brought by the plaintiffs and why the Central Trust Company of New York is made a party defendant is that the plaintiffs are the lawful owners and holders of said bonds in the amount hereinbefore alleged, and the beneficial and equitable owners of said judgment held by the defendant Central Trust Company of New York, and that the defendant Central Trust Company of New York has refused to bring this action after due demand by the plaintiffs upon said defendant Central Trust Company of New York, although the plaintiffs have offered proper indemnification to the said defendant Central Trust Company of New York, as such trustee, to institute this suit to enforce the rights of the trustee and of the bondholders under said judgment and guaranty made by said defendant Metropolitan Street Railway Company, as aforesaid."
Jurisdiction of the district court was rested wholly on diversity of citizenship, plaintiffs being all citizens and residents of states other than New York, and the three defendants, corporations organized under the laws of that state. The Trust Company filed an answer in substance joining in the prayer of the bill and admitting its allegations. The New York Railways Company, besides answering to the merits, alleged:
"That the interests of the plaintiffs, and all other security holders, and the interests of said defendant Central Trust Company of New York, are identical and in all respects similar to the interests of the plaintiffs, and all other owners or holders of bonds secured by the mortgage . . . ; that the parties to this action should be realigned by the court, and placed according to their interests in the subject matter of this suit, and for the reasons hereinbefore alleged, and for divers other reasons appearing on the face of the bill upon the trial of this action, this defendant alleges that this Court is without jurisdiction to entertain this complaint, or to give judgment for the relief demanded therein."
It also appeared by stipulation that the holders of a large part of the Crosstown bonds deposited with the committee were citizens and residents of New York.
Plaintiffs admit that, in respect to the Crosstown Company, no cause of action on the bond vested in any one bondholder, since the bondholders were bound by the terms of the mortgage, under which all right to sue on the bonds and to foreclose the mortgage was in the Trust Company. But they insist that the rights of the bondholders against the Metropolitan Company on the guaranty were entirely distinct from their rights against the Crosstown Company on the bonds; that the guaranty vested in the holder of each bond a cause of action on which he could sue in his own name; that the original guaranty to the Trust Company was a naked promise to one for the benefit of another; that the judgment obtained by the Trust Company belongs to the holders of the bonds; that it is in this suit merely a "use plaintiff," a title owner of the judgment, who owes no duty to the plaintiff or other bondholders with reference thereto, has no interest in the result of the suit, and need not have been made a party thereto, and that, being a merely formal party, should be disregarded in determining the question
of jurisdiction. Before discussing whether the Trust Company has an interest, and, if so, its character and effect, the nature of this suit should be considered.
1. The cause of action.
This is not a suit upon the original guaranty. It is a suit to enforce a judgment. The prayer of the bill is that the property acquired by the New York Railways Company "be declared to be subject to the lien of said judgment." The rights on the original guaranty, whether they be treated, by virtue of the stamping on each bond, as an aggregation of 1,500 separate causes of action, or be treated as a single cause of action for the benefit of the 1,500 bondholders, were merged in that judgment. This is true even if, as contended, the guaranty to the Trust Company stamped on each bond "for the benefit of the holders thereof" be construed as importing a promise of payment directly to the holder, on which he was at liberty to sue in his own name. For the recovery of the judgment extinguished through merger the original cause or causes of action, and the judgment is one recovered by the Trust Company as trustee. [Footnote 1]
2. The interest of the Trust Company.
Whatever may have been the situation originally with respect to rights of individual bondholders on the guaranty, we have now a single judgment held by the Trust Company as trustee for the pro rata benefit of 1,500 bondholders. The plaintiffs allege that they hold 1,373 of these bonds -- that is, a fraction only of the beneficial interest. It is thus clear that the minority bondholders as well as the railway companies defendant require for the protection
of their respective interests that the Trust Company be a party to the litigation, the minority bondholders so that they may share ratably in the proceeds, the railway companies in order that they may, upon paying the amount of the judgment, be discharged from the possibility of further liability. The judgment is a unit, and the relief sought on it is necessarily for the benefit of all. Blacklock v. Small, 127 U. S. 96, 127 U. S. 104. But a suit by some bondholders does not, by the allegation that it is in behalf of all others similarly situated, become a class suit, binding on all. Wabash R. Co. v. Adelbert College, 208 U. S. 38, 208 U. S. 57. And, for the protection of the Trust Company itself, joinder as a party is essential in order that, upon distribution of any proceeds, it may be discharged from obligations to its beneficiaries.
To the state of facts presented here, Greene v. Republic Fire Insurance Co., 84 N.Y. 572, which is strongly relied upon by plaintiffs, has no application. In that case, the assignee of a chose in action, having recovered a judgment in Mississippi, where he was obliged (as by the common law procedure) to sue for his own use in the assignor's name, was permitted to sue on the judgment in New York in his own name, since the New York Code requires suit to be brought in the name of the real party in interest. There, the assignor, having assigned the cause of action, had no interest in it when the action was commenced in Mississippi, and consequently no interest in the judgment, and the judgment record so recited, declaring that it was "for the use and benefit of Edward A. Greene." Here, there has been no assignment either of the cause of action or of the judgment. The prayer of the complaint was that the Trust Company, "as trustee, may have judgment against . . . said Metropolitan Company," and, in accordance with that prayer, judgment for the deficiency was entered. So far as the record discloses, the deficiency judgment against the Metropolitan Company,
like that against the Crosstown Company, and the property transferred by the mortgage, is held by the Trust Company as trustee for all the bondholders. [Footnote 2] That, under such circumstances, the trustee is a necessary party to this suit is clear.
3. The affiliation of the Trust Company.
It is clear that the interest of the Trust Company in this controversy lies wholly with the plaintiffs. This is shown, among other things, by the request in its answer that the relief prayed for in the bill be granted. No reason is assigned in the bill or in the answer of the Trust Company for its refusal to sue, and none suggests itself save the willingness of an accommodating trustee to enable its beneficiaries to present that appearance of diversity of citizenship essential to conducting this litigation in the federal court. It is not contended that this refusal to sue makes the Trust Company an adversary, to be classed for purposes of jurisdiction with the real defendants -- as in those cases where the refusal to sue was part of a fraudulent participation in the wrongdoing, and where the trustee or corporation in effect ranged itself in opposition to the relief sought. [Footnote 3] The Trust Company having, as we have shown, a real interest in the controversy, which makes it a necessary party to the suit, must be aligned as a party plaintiff, where its interest lies. [Footnote 4]
Since the necessary realignment of the Trust Company as party plaintiff is fatal to the jurisdiction of the district court, it is unnecessary to consider the legal effect of the fact stipulated that a large part of the bondholders represented
by plaintiffs are likewise citizens and residents of New York.
4. Whether the suit is an ancillary one.
The plaintiffs, relying upon Wabash R. Co. v. Adelbert College, 208 U. S. 38, 208 U. S. 53, attempt to sustain the jurisdiction of the court on the ground that this suit is ancillary to the foreclosure proceedings against the Metropolitan Company in the district court. But the facts in that case bear no resemblance to those here under consideration. There, the rights and lien which it was declared the federal court had exclusive jurisdiction to ascertain and enforce were expressly reserved by the decree, and the purchaser under the decree took title expressly subject to them. The decree of foreclosure under which sale was made of the property of the Metropolitan Company, which was later transferred to the New York Company, contained, so far as appears from the record, no reservation whatsoever concerning liens or similar rights. And there is in the answer of the New York company the uncontroverted statement that the properties subject to the foreclosure
"were sold to the purchasers and to the New York Railways Company, free and clear of any lien, claims, or interest in any party outstanding, except the interests"
of those expressly provided for in the plan of reorganization, and that the proceedings resulting in the deficiency judgment against the Metropolitan Company here sued on "did not constitute a claim against, or a lien on, or an interest in, any of the property rights or estate of the Metropolitan Street Railway Company." Furthermore, the bill in the instant case does not purport to be ancillary to the Metropolitan Company foreclosure proceedings. Plaintiffs here seek merely to establish an equity against the property of the New York Company, on the theory that the rights of the Crosstown bondholders have been improperly ignored. They set up a wholly independent cause of action.
Decree affirmed.
"If there be any one principle of law settled beyond all question, it is this, that, whensoever a cause of action, in the language of the law, transit in rem judicatam, and the judgment thereupon remains in full force unreversed, the original cause of action is merged and gone forever."

Who Killed Vincent Chin?
A Screening and Talk
With Christine Choy and Richard Fung
6:30 – 9:30 pm, doors open 6:00 pm
TPW R&D, 1256 Dundas St. W.
PWYC
Initiated as a promo clip to raise funds for a legal case, the Academy Award nominated documentary film, Who Killed Vincent Chin? (Christine Choy & Renee Tajima-Peña) became a feature-length, complex and confounding analysis of the murder of Chinese-American engineer Vincent Chin, who was beaten to death by two Detroit auto workers in 1982. The faltering of the American auto industry, recognized as being due to competition from Japan, produced the conditions for what was alleged to be a racially motivated crime. Weaving together parallel accounts of the incident, Choy and Tajima-Peña take a Rashomon-style approach to present competing truth claims in a pivotal moment when American race and class politics clashed. This stirred the imaginary of a progressive Asian-American politics, putting to question the costs, ethics and tactics that lead to the coalescence of the Asian-American movement and civil rights struggles in the United States.
Gendai invites you to this first "module" in the Model Minority series that takes an intersectional approach to analyze the practices that construct hierarchies, conflict and power struggles in the terrain of multiculturalism and cultural diversity in North America. Who Killed Vincent Chin? will be introduced by Toronto based artist and writer Richard Fung, followed by a talk by one of the directors, New York based filmmaker Christine Choy. With this screening, Gendai initiates a discussion of the Model Minority by introducing the little known legacies, actors and events of Asian diasporic politics and culture—the unexpected figures and categorical fictions that drive the construction of race and power, past and present. What are the resonances of the Vincent Chin case today for race and class politics? Practices of image production and political filmmaking guide our discussions—the stories and struggles we will encounter help us grapple with and shape a model minority analysis to think and work from.
Join us for popcorn and refreshments at this special screening event.
Christine Choy is a New York based filmmaker. She has produced and directed over seventy works and received over sixty international awards including the John Simon Guggenheim, Rockefeller, and Asian Cultural Council fellowships, as well as an Academy Award nomination for the documentary film, Who Killed Vincent Chin?. Christine was a founding member of Third World Newsreel, teaches at NYU, Yale, Cornell, and SUNY Buffalo and was a visiting scholar at Evergreen State College, Oslo and Volda Film Institute in Norway.
Richard Fung is a Toronto based video artist and writer, and associate professor at OCAD University. His award winning videos have been widely exhibited and collected, and his essays have been published in numerous journals and anthologies. He is the co-author with Monika Kin Gagnon of 13: Conversations on Art and Cultural Race Politics and his most recent production is Dal Puri Diaspora (2013). He is a recipient of the Bell Canada Award and the Toronto Arts Award for media art.
Who Killed Vincent Chin is presented by Gendai Gallery as part of the Model Minority programme.

Marie Victoire Lebour (20 August 1876 – 2 October 1971) was a British marine biologist known for her study of the life cycles of various marine animals. She published more than 175 works during her long career.

Early life and education
Marie Lebour was born the youngest of three daughters to Emily and George Lebour in Woodburn, Northumberland on 20 August 1876. Her father was a professor of geology and Marie regularly joined him on expeditions, collecting specimens for her own collections. She attended Armstrong College and studied art, then went on to Durham University, where she earned degrees in zoology: an associate degree in 1903, bachelor's degree in 1904, master's degree in 1907, and doctorate in 1917.

Career and research
In 1900, before beginning her scientific education, Lebour began her research career with a paper on land and freshwater molluscs in Northumberland. While studying for her master's degree, Lebour was on staff at Durham University. From 1906–1909, she was a demonstrator in the Department of Zoology at the University of Leeds and from 1909–1915 she was also an assistant lecturer. Lebour's professional research career was entirely conducted at the Marine Biological Association's Laboratory at Plymouth, where she joined the research staff in 1915. She was a full staff member there until 1946, then an honorary staff member until she could no longer conduct research due to health problems, in 1964.

Her main research interests were the larval stages of both trematodes (some species of which are parasites of molluscs) and of molluscs themselves. She published more than 100 papers on these topics during her career. She also worked on microplankton and discovered at least 28 new species which she catalogued in two books. After publishing these books, Lebour used the newly invented plunger jar to better study the egg and larval stages of krill in the North Atlantic, Antarctica, and Bermuda. She also published well-regarded work on the eggs and larvae of sprat, herring, and pilchards. She also conducted research in West Africa.

Lebour retired in 1945 at the age of 70, but continued to work into the laboratory and publish until she was 88 and her failing vision prevented her from working at the microscope.

Lebour died on 2 October 1971, at the age of 95. Many of Lebour's publications are still used by researchers.

Selected publications

Honors and legacy
Lebour was a member of several professional societies. She was a fellow of the Linnaean Society, a lifetime fellow of the Zoological Society, and a member of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom. Multiple species of dinoflagellates were named after her, including genera Lebouraia and Lebouridinium and the species Polykrikos lebourae and Cochlodinium lebourae. She was remembered fondly by her colleagues.

Q: Python: Compute the average of a big numbet of arrays without saving them I have a huge number of lists and I want to compute the average without storing all of them. Is there any python implementation to do this ?
Thanks

A: If you want to average entire arrays (must be compatible shapes):
running_sum = None
count = 0
for a in yourarraysource:
    if running_sum is None:
        running_sum = a
    else:
        running_sum = running_sum + a
    count += 1
average = running_sum / count

If you want to average all elements:
running_sum = 0
count = 0
for a in yourarraysource:
    running_sum += a.sum()
    count += a.size
average = running_sum / count

Havoc Is Breaking Out In Airports And Aboard Airplanes Everywhere, See The Footage
Altercations aboard commercial aircraft and in airports have been on the rise in recent months, notable incidents include a shirtless man attacking a fellow passenger before takeoff and a woman at a Mexico City airport who became irate and started throwing things at workers.
By Charlene Badasie | Published 2 weeks ago
Airplane violence has been on the rise recently, as a series of altercations between passengers have been captured on camera. A video of a man punching a fellow traveler went viral on social media, as viewers were stunned by the footage. The incident took place on a Boeing 777 operated by Biman Bangladesh Airlines. The clip shows a man without a shirt standing over another passenger, who is seated in an exit row.
Meanwhile, in Bangladesh…
A man poorly attempts to fight on a Biman Bangladesh Airlines Boeing 777.
Judging by the boarding music playing, this happened while the aircraft was on the ground. #biman #bengladesh #passengershaming #aviationdaily pic.twitter.com/Ud760A1P9n

A minor tussle begins before the angry shirtless man throws the first punch. He then starts to repeatedly strike the seated passenger in the head. Other travelers rushed to restrain him. But it is unclear if he was arrested by airplane security for the act of violence. The altercation was said to be over a seat allocation mix-up, the New York Post reports.
Fortunately, the incident seemed to take place before the flight left on its journey. This is evidenced by the boarding music playing in the video's background. Additionally, no one appears to know why the instigator of the fight was on the plane without a shirt. Since being uploaded two weeks ago, the disturbing clip of airplane violence has earned 120,000 views.
Sadly, incidents of airplane violence have become more common as people return to air travel following the global pandemic. In November 2022, a woman went on a mini rampage at Mexico City International Airport. She was seen throwing items at the check-in counter and attacking an airline employee, Fox News reported at the time.
The case of airplane violence began after the staffer refused to allow her on the plane due to her late arrival and expired passport. The woman reacted by hitting the employee and throwing various items from her luggage at airline workers who tried to calm her down. She was later detained by airport security while police responded to the scene.
Speaking about the airplane violence, a Dubai-based airline confirmed the cause of the chaos. "The client was denied the trip, and she became rebellious and physically abusive with the ground staff," the air carrier told Fox News. "So it was necessary for airport security and police to intervene." The name and destination of the woman were not been released.
Another airplane violence case was spotted in Australia when a disorderly woman ignored directions from staff on a plane bound for Melbourne. Jetstar employees called in the country's Federal Police when the 42-year-old refused to leave voluntarily. Footage shared to social media, captured the moment she was forcibly removed, as officers physically pulled her from the seat.

According to the New York Post, the woman had been asked to leave the plane due to her level of intoxication. She was later charged with "behaving in an offensive or disorderly manner on an aircraft." Airplane violence carries a significant penalty as it is a Commonwealth offense. If convicted, the 42-year-old will face a maximum fine of $9,480. She is due to appear in Southport Magistrates Court on March 20th.

Lawsuits filed by Brooklyn Diocese, Jewish groups over new NY COVID restrictions
The Diocese of Brooklyn and Agudath Israel of America file lawsuits against Governor Cuomo's COVID restrictions
New York faces backlash from religious groups over COVID restrictions
NEW YORK CITY (WABC) -- Several religious groups have filed lawsuits against New York for violations of religious freedom.
The Roman Catholic Diocese of Brooklyn on Thursday, filed a lawsuit in federal court against the state of New York, on the basis of violating their First Amendment right, the free exercise of religion.
The lawsuit is in response to the New York State executive order issued this week that reduces capacity at Catholic Churches throughout Brooklyn and Queens, locations that have seen in uptick in COVID clusters.
RELATED | Borough Park protests: Reporter attacked as anger flares over NYC red zone restrictions
In one of the red zones in Brooklyn, many in the largely Orthodox Jewish community are fighting back, even attacking the messenger.
The Diocese has appointed Randy Mastro, a partner in the New York office of Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher, to represent them in this case.
Prior to the churches reopening on July 5 for weekend Masses, the Diocese worked with former New York City Office of Emergency Management Commissioner Joseph Esposito, to develop a safe reopening plan for all churches.
"The executive orders this week have left us with no other option than to go to court. Our churches have the capacity to accommodate many worshippers and to reset our attendance capacity to 10 people maximum in the red zone, and 25 people in the orange zone, when we have had no significant cases, impedes our right to worship and cannot stand," Bishop of Brooklyn Nicholas DiMarzio said. "The State has completely disregarded the fact that our safety protocols have worked and it is an insult to once again penalize all those who have made the safe return to Church work."
In addition, Agudath Israel of America, an Orthodox Jewish group, filed a federal lawsuit asking for a temporary restraining order against New York State's enforcement of attendance limits on houses of worship.
The limits, announced by Governor Andrew Cuomo just two days ago, would cap Shul and other houses of worship attendance in so-called "red zones" to ten individuals.
"This is something which is very devastating to communities of faith," Rabbi David Zwiebel of Agudath Israel of America said. "Why in the world would a large shul with large capacity be treated the same as a small shul?"
Deep animosity was directed towards the Mayor Bill de Blasio for singling out these hot spot neighborhoods to begin with.

"He knows that most of the Jews are gonna vote for Trump and he doesn't want that to happen," Midwood resident Rachel Aviv said. "So he thinks that if he locks us down and keeps us in our homes, then we will not be able to go out to vote."
The memorandum argues that the Executive Order's restrictions unconstitutionally discriminate against religious practice while also allowing comparable activities.
"We get sued virtually every day for virtually every action. We're focused on reducing the spread in these clusters and saving lives, period," a spokesperson for Governor Cuomo said.
Other groups in the filing were Agudath Israel of Kew Garden Hills, Agudath Israel of Bayswater, Congregation Zichron Moshe Dov, Rabbi Yisroel Reisman, Rabbi Menachem Feifer, Rabbi Aaron Stein and Steven Saphirstein.
For two nights, mobs of angry men took to the streets, burning piles of masks and attacking reporters and claiming they've been targeted unfairly because of their religion.
"Social distancing, masking, and all health precautions must, of course, be observed," said Rabbi Chaim Dovid Zwiebel, Executive Vice President of Agudath Israel. "However, we think that it is possible to stay safe and at the same time have more than ten people in a Shul building that is meant to hold hundreds."
The Anti-Defamation League says they are worried that all the vivid pushback from a tiny subset of Jewish New Yorkers will yield dangerous dividends for all.
"This is going to be a concern that anti-Semitism will rise in response to this, that people will stereotype and will see this as reflective of the whole community," said Scott Richman of the Anti-Defamation League.
