GameFi: The New Golden Child of the Cryptoverse
PRESS RELEASE. Following the popularity of DeFi and NFTs, GameFi entered the show as blockchain's next big thing. As per Google Trend data, the global search volume for "GameFi" has soared over 100% within five months, gaining traction not only within the blockchain community, but also in the gaming and finance world in general.
GameFi is a hybrid of blockchain gaming and DeFi, changing the gaming industry with "play-to-earn" models that differ from traditional "pay-to-win" models.
With traditional games you pay for an advantage in the game, such as equipment or powers. Play-to-earn games give players the promise of financial gain by giving them rewards that can be translated into real life assets, while delivering users a wide range of appealing activities.
The new generation of cryptocurrency advocates are young, and many are avid gamers. GameFi seems to be the logical next step of blockchain development. Users seize character cards and land in games in the form of NFTs. With everything stored on public blockchains, no more counterfeiting, or limited access to your own gaming assets. Blockchain makes ownership easy to prove and the transfer of assets restriction free. Parts of DeFi are also transferred to GameFi, such as staking. Users can store their tokens and gain an annual interest or secret rewards.
Improve your character while earning blockchain secured tokens that can't be taken away by game creators. Sounds like it belongs in a sci-fi novel, but with the development of blockchain technology, it not only is achievable, it's already reality.
LBank Established GameFi Fund
Recognizing the potential of this field, LBank is paving the way for GameFi projects by dedicating funds to their development.
LBank is one of the leading cryptocurrency exchange platforms that focuses on start-up cryptocurrency projects. Following the trend of DeFi and NFT, LBank is now expanding its business model to the GameFi community. The platform has established a dedicated GameFi fund in order to support early-stage projects and expand their influence in the blockchain space. Many projects listed on LBank have already surged in popularity. Here are a few notable gainers.

Future of GameFi
What makes GameFi truly special, is the potential of financial freedom. Instead of gaming and letting the game developers rake in your earnings, blockchain incentivizes users by paying them for their time.Tokens and NFTs give the financial power back to the users, giving them more reason to continue their presence in the decentralized universe.
From anywhere on the planet, a user can game, win,and cash their virtual assets in real life. This gives anyone with a computer and internet access the potential of making a living online. A freedom that has until now been reserved for only a limited group of people.
As NFTs and Defi become increasingly mainstream, so will GameFi. For the growth and development of this early-stage hybrid creation, much support is needed. Only with the devotion of users, exchanges and communities alike can we develop GameFi into greater things that might change our lives in the near future for good.

Abstract. Pressure on land resources is expected to increase as global population continues to climb and the world becomes more affluent, swelling the demand for food. Changing climate may exert additional pressures on natural lands as present-day productive regions may shift, or soil quality may degrade, and the recent rise in demand for biofuels increases competition with edible crops for arable land. Given these projected trends there is a need to understand the global climate impacts of land use and land cover change (LULCC). Here we quantify the climate impacts of global LULCC in terms of modifications to the balance between incoming and outgoing radiation at the top of the atmosphere (radiative forcing, RF) that are caused by changes in long-lived and short-lived greenhouse gas concentrations, aerosol effects, and land surface albedo. We attribute historical changes in terrestrial carbon storage, global fire emissions, secondary organic aerosol emissions, and surface albedo to LULCC using simulations with the Community Land Model version 3.5. These LULCC emissions are combined with estimates of agricultural emissions of important trace gases and mineral dust in two sets of Community Atmosphere Model simulations to calculate the RF of changes in atmospheric chemistry and aerosol concentrations attributed to LULCC. With all forcing agents considered together, we show that 40% (±16%) of the present-day anthropogenic RF can be attributed to LULCC. Changes in the emission of non-CO2 greenhouse gases and aerosols from LULCC enhance the total LULCC RF by a factor of 2 to 3 with respect to the LULCC RF from CO2 alone. This enhancement factor also applies to projected LULCC RF, which we compute for four future scenarios associated with the Representative Concentration Pathways. We attribute total RFs between 0.9 and 1.9 W m−2 to LULCC for the year 2100 (relative to a pre-industrial state). To place an upper bound on the potential of LULCC to alter the global radiation budget, we include a fifth scenario in which all arable land is cultivated by 2100. This theoretical extreme case leads to a LULCC RF of 3.9 W m−2 (±0.9 W m−2), suggesting that not only energy policy but also land policy is necessary to minimize future increases in RF and associated climate changes.

After decades of insurgency, the government of the Philippines is making efforts to deliver peace to Mindanao in the south of the country. Although the creation of the Bangsamoro Transition Authority in 2019 can be seen as an initial success on the road to peace, this entity is faced with a difficult task in managing the transition until the 2022 elections. Violence continues between the government and several armed groups, including ISIS-affiliated elements and the communist New People's Army. Through field research and advocacy, Crisis Group works to support the peace processes, promote strategies designed to limit the space for jihadist recruitment and mobilisation, and strengthen social cohesion in Mindanao.

Here's what our catering customers have said….
Dear Simon, Mesalina and the exceptional team at PPD. You guys were just amazing, we were delighted by your service and the lovely food at the Wedding. People have been so complimentary about the canapés, dinner and brilliant cheeseboard, which we are still enjoying – as are many friends! THANK YOU.
Thank you on behalf of St George's for your help with last night's event. It was wonderful – thanks in great part to the delicious food which went down a treat. I'm also immensely grateful for the warmth, speed and professionalism of the Papadeli team.
Anthea Bell, St George's music hall and events venue.
I just wanted to drop you a quick e-mail to say how fantastic the food was for our party. Everyone was complimenting me and I did have to admit that I got you guys to do the food! All dishes were fantastic and we even had left overs that were throughly enjoyed after the event!
I would definitely recommend your food and services and will keep you on the list when I have another party!
I just wanted to thank you for the fantastic food yesterday! It was great.
Thank you so much for all your help and the support of your wonderful staff – yesterday day went so much better than I could have hoped for. The food was completely delicious and the system you invented worked really well. I am sure St. George will use it again having seen how effective it is.
You have been so wonderfully committed and easy to work with. Thank you!
Many thanks to you and your staff for the wonderful food provided last Thursday. I had a great many compliments and your staff were smiley and friendly throughout. Mesalina professional as ever.
Jo Powell, bride. Wedding at Circomedia.
The food and service were fantastic, thank you for all your help and please pass on our thanks to the staff. A comment I received from many people was how much flavour you manage to pack into your food. Everything stood out brilliantly on its own, and as a meal it was delicious and informal, exactly what we were after.
Pat and I were really impressed by the whole Papadeli team.
– Your Team lead Messalina's seemingly boundless energy, lovely disposition and attention to… pretty well everything!
– And of course the food itself. It was an innovative and really well executed menu that exactly caught the moment and worked perfectly in terms of helping Ed and Kate to create the relaxed atmosphere that they were aiming for.
Pat and I both had a fantastic time on 13th. We are, of course, horribly biased but we both think that the catering at our daughter's wedding was the best we have ever experienced! Many of our friends and family who were with us in Harptree Court and Chew Magna made a very specific point of complementing the catering and all the catering staff. Indeed several are still raving about it weeks later! I should also mention that Linda, the owner of Harptee Court was also full of praise for the professionalism and way in which your team conducted themselves when at the ceremony venue.
As loyal customers of the cafe and deli for many years, it was on the strength of one of Papadeli's supper evenings back in January that we chose Papadeli to cater for our wedding earlier this month.
Everything we loved about our experiences as cafe/deli customers was replicated (and then some!) for our wedding day: The staff, friendly, knowledgable and attentive; attention to detail superb; and the food….well, the food was just fantastic!
Simon helped us put together a menu themed around 'sharing', with boards of bread, Serrano ham, tapenade etc. followed by a sumptuous cassoulet and finished up with orange and almond cake, which we cut together with our guests.
Everything on the day ran like clockwork – Mesalina running a tight ship, everything beautifully cooked and waiting staff putting in so much effort. When it's the biggest day of your life, and with us both being obsessive planners, it really helped us to relax knowing everything was in hand.
Thank you to all at Papadeli for the huge role you played making our big day one to truly remember.
I have always been a fan of the gorgeous, top quality and delicious food which Papadeli produces as well as the "hard to find" specialty items they supply in their shop. I have had the pleasure of experiencing themed dinners in their restaurant, have participated in a fun yet informative day of cookery lessons, and have attended parties which they successfully catered.. it was no wonder I chose them to cater our daughter's 21st.
Simon created a bespoke menu for us, ahering to the theme and offering several cost saving suggestions, as well as sourcing any of our quirky requests…nothing was too much. He and his lovely assistant Messalina were absolute lifesavers during the stressful process which lead up to the event. The interesting menu they created and served was second to none…it was absolutely delicious and our guests still rave about it. They delivered professional and cheerful service to our 115 guests and stayed and cleared to the very end. I wouldn't think twice about using Papadeli again and I would recommend them 100% to anyone.
Thank you for your attention to detail last night. Your staff were excellent and the food was fantastic.
Just a very quick email to thank you for the food on Saturday night – it was amazing and so many people commented about how good it was.
Just wanted to thank you, once again, for the delicious party food which you prepared for our party yesterday. It was perfect and much commented-upon by our guests. Back again next year no doubt!
I just wanted to say thank you so very much for today. The food was fantastic, your team were amazing and it was great to work with you all.
Have a great long weekend and please do let the team know what a pleasure it was to work with them.
Thank you and the girls so much for making the party wonderful (again) on Thursday, it's always a pleasure to work with you all. And the food is just delicious. I can't fault it (and I'm a massive foodie!).
We have been coming here for years and in all that time I have only had great experiences. When dining in the food is always fresh, tasty and interesting, and there's always something new to try. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable, and you really do need that knowledge when going through their cheese and cold meat selection, both of which are the best in Bristol (not said lightly, and no mean feat). We regularly base our dinner parties around Papadeli takeaways – more time eating and drinking, less time cooking!


Driving under the influence (DUI) in Illinois has significant consequences. First offenses have severe consequences, and each additional offense has increasingly stringent penalties. Penalties such as jail time, large fines and revocation of driving privileges are well known. An additional possible consequence that many may not be aware of is that in some cases, the state can forfeiture your vehicle for certain DUI offenses.
Vehicle forfeiture is a fancy way of saying that the state can seize your vehicle and sell it. The state then can keep the proceeds of the sale. Forfeiture laws act as a deterrent to crime, and in the case of DUI laws, vehicle forfeiture is available to the state as a deterrent to driving while intoxicated. Depending on the circumstances, even a first time offender may need to worry about vehicle forfeiture if he/she is driving without a valid license or insurance.
When can the state forfeiture a vehicle for DUI offense?
After a DUI arrest and vehicle seizure, the vehicle must be delivered to the Sheriff in the county which the seizure occurred. Then the Sheriff must notify everyone listed on the title via certified mail to the address on file within 15 days. The Sheriff must also notify the State's Attorney within that time frame. Next, the State's Attorney must file a complaint of forfeiture with the circuit court. This complaint must also be served to the vehicle owners listed on the title. The owners then have 20 days to file an answer to the complaint. After the hearing, if the court rules in favor of forfeiture, then the vehicle will put up at auction. At the hearing, the state must demonstrate by a preponderance of evidence that the vehicle was used in the commission of a crime (ie. used while driving under the influence).
The statute does allow for a spouse or family member to have the title transferred into his/her name if it can be proven that forfeiture of the vehicle would cause financial hardship for the family. This provision does have limitations. If the vehicle is used during a subsequent DUI offense, the title can no longer be transferred to another person. Additionally, if another car is used during a DUI, this provision cannot be used for that car either. Basically, this is a one time provision per family.
The DUI vehicle forfeiture law follows a strict process with deadlines that must be followed. If you fail to file an answer to the complaint or neglect to show hardship, your car can be seized and sold. Dennis F. Dwyer, attorney at law, is familiar with DUI vehicle forfeiture law and can fight for your vehicle. Loss of your vehicle can infringe upon your freedom, make it difficult to get to work and cause significant financial difficulties for your family. If you have your vehicle seized after a DUI arrest, contact Dennis F. Dwyer to defend your case.

How much stock should soccer fans put in transfer fees?
Everyone is swimming in a Scrooge McDuck pool of gold.
SoccerBy Matt Lichtenstadter on July 25, 2017 July 25, 2017
Every day in the summer transfer window, there seems to be another seemingly ridiculous story about a transfer that should be immediately discounted, but is in all likelihood, real.
Everton bidding £45 million for Gylfi Sigurdsson, for example, is a story that in all other years would be considered beyond the bounds of reality, but has become the new normal. The new normal is that £50 million transfer fees are somehow common place. From Manchester City spending almost £140 million on transfer fees just for fullbacks, and Chelsea able to drop up to £70 million for Real Madrid's second-string striker like it's nothing.
Based on this crazy spending, does it make sense for fans to almost ignore the transfer fees entirely?
According to transfermarkt.co.uk, Premier League clubs have spent £814 million on transfer fees already this summer on only 158 incoming transfers, and there's still a month of this window left to go. Liverpool was rumored to submit a £70 million bid on RB Leipzig's Naby Keita, and no one seemed to bat an eye, even though that transfer fee is eye-popping and honestly ridiculous, even for a player of Keita's quality. Not only that, but Leipzig reportedly turned that offer down. In the world of the new normal, those types of transfer fees are going to be commonplace because the market is all out of whack.
In order to wrap your head around the transfer fees from English teams, and to a lesser extent some other clubs too, think of the investment that is coming into these European leagues from all sides. In England, the Premier League gets boosted by an absurd amount of TV money coming in every season, almost £8.5 billion for the three seasons starting from 2016-17 to 2018-19. Here is a great breakdown of this money and how each club, even the smaller teams, get paid.
Combine the TV money with outrageous sponsorship deals that big clubs can strike, such as £60 million per season from Nike for Chelsea's kit deal as an example, and England's biggest clubs have enormous spending power to make the transfer fees for Benjamin Mendy, Kyle Walker and Romelu Lukaku the new normal.
(Photo by Adam Pretty/Getty Images)
And it's not just an English phenomenon. Milan, thanks to their new Chinese ownership, has spent £160 million on transfers this summer in a spending spree that would make even England's big boys blush. While they're not spending gigantic fees on one or two players like Chelsea, Manchester United and Manchester City have been, but spending what they did on Leonardo Bonucci out of nowhere is a sign of the times.
New money into the sport coming from China and the Middle East has transformed clubs just as much as TV money transformed the Premier League, and when the big clubs set the market at the top, transfers down the ladder will follow, hence Gylfi Sigurdsson somehow being worth almost seven times what Swansea paid for him three summers ago.
There is an absurd amount of money in soccer right now, and both players and clubs think they have the upper hand in transfer negotiations, meaning that fees can be driven up to insane levels on a regular basis. Clubs can dig in because they are sitting on piles of cash from sponsors, TV revenue and other player sales, whereas players can dig in because of the allure of a huge payday on the other end and a little push from agents who can garner big paydays themselves.
And because these transfer fees have inflated so rapidly, the scale that fans have to react to when they see Manchester City spend £52 million on another fullback goes from shock and awe to apathy just like that. And that's the tip of the iceberg.
(Photo by Clint Hughes/Getty Images)
It's hard to ignore transfer fees because of the importance they have been given for so many years. But when there is such a rapid inflation in the fees that system we are all accustomed to no longer exists, it might be time to lessen their value, or almost discard their importance. At the top end of the scale, transfer fees virtually seem like monopoly money that can be thrown around for what seems like fun because everyone is swimming in a Scrooge McDuck pool of gold. Soccer's economy is its own animal, and is growing so rapidly with no end in sight.
This means that transfer fees will too, and since almost every club has more money than what they know what to do with (see every club in England), it means that transfer fees aren't the reference points they once were. In many ways, they're just numbers on a screen with very little meaning financially or in a sporting context, especially comparing this year's transfer activity to past seasons.
When Huddersfield Town can spend £36 million on transfer fees in one month, breaking their own transfer record multiple times over, and on a bigger scale Manchester City can spend £140 million on fullbacks in one summer, a dramatic re-calculation is in order. In the summer of 2014, English clubs spent £900 million on transfer fees on 383 incoming players. As we sit right now, with five weeks left in the transfer window, English teams have spent £814 or so million on fees for 158 incoming players.
So when Everton pays £45 million for Gylfi Sigurdsson, inevitably, there won't be stories about how Sigurdsson is even close to being worth that.
For fans, the new normal of transfer fees are pretty much like the points in Whose Line is it Anyway? In the end, they pretty much don't matter.

Q: Draw Separate ablines in different ggplot facets I'm attempting to plot some lines based upon coefficients from some lmer model fits to some ggplot facets. I'd like to plot a different line for each facet. What would be the best way of achieving this?
To obtain my fits, I'm using the following approach, as it's a binomial lmer model:
model.coefs <- fixef(model)
curve( invlogit( cbind(1, x) %*% model.coefs ), add=TRUE )

This is taken from this question. When saved to a variable, the curve function gives a bunch of x and y co-ordinates that I'd like to plot on my graphs.
I'm able to get it to produce a decent plot using the base R graphing functions, but I'd rather go for ggplot instead. So, rather than do this to get two different plots for two different models, labelled here as modelA and modelB:
plot(x, y)
modelA.coefs <- fixef(modelA)
curve( invlogit( cbind(1, x) %*% modelA.coefs ), add=TRUE )

plot(x, y)
modelB.coefs <- fixef(modelB)
curve( invlogit( cbind(1, x) %*% modelB.coefs ), add=TRUE )

I'm trying to get it working in ggplot instead.
ggplot(dataset)+
aes(x=x, y=y)+
geom_point()+
facet_wrap(~groupingFactor)+
geom_line(subset(dataset, groupFactor=="factorA"), **[would the solution be to feed this line something here?]**)

I suspect part of the problem is my trying to mangle together several examples at once (including this one, this one, and this one), but this feels like it should be simple to work out. What is it I'm doing wrong or missing here?

The flame of art patronage has been alight in Montpellier ever since the time of François-Xavier Fabre who founded the museum in 1825. The reopening of the Musée Fabre, Montpellier Méditerranée Métropole, in February 2007,after restoration and extension work, was met with unprecedented success for this unique venue, notably in the business world. The Musée Fabre Business Foundation was created in 2008 and its aim is to purchase works of art for the museum, participate in the production of temporary exhibitions and contribute to large restoration projects for objects and paintings from the permanent collections. Today, there are 25 member companies who believe in the long term value of supporting this cultural institution.
Ever since its creation the Business Foundation has greatly contributed to the development of the Musée Fabre collections under the presidence of Mr Gérard Maurice, Regional Director of Vinci Construction in the Languedoc-Roussillon. In recognition of his leading role as president of the Business Foundation, Mr Gérard Maurice was personally awarded the medalGrand mécène de la culture(Very Important Patron of Culture) from the Minister of Culture and Communication on March 23rd, 2012.
Following the sad loss of Mr Gérard Maurice in April 2014, Mr Max Ponseillé, Chief Executive Officer of Groupe Oc Santé, was elected President of the Musée Fabre Business Foundation on June 17th 2014.
The Friends of the Musée Fabre association aims to promote the museum and, more generally, to promote art in all its diversity.
The association plays an active role supporting the museum and also as a veritable partner in the dynamic cultural life of Montpellier and its region. It is a member of the French Federation of Societies of Museum Friends whose aim is act as a recognised interlocutor with public bodies.
It participates in the enrichment of the museum's collections through the donation of artworks or contribution to purchase funds. Its activities are open to all those who, familiar or not with art, wish to deepen or expand their knowledge of this subject. There are organised visits to the Musée Fabre's collections and temporary exhibitions, programmes of talks and conferences about the arts, visits to museums in France and other countries, visits to painters studios and the organisation of an 'arts café'.
All activities are organised by member volunteers from the association who come many different backgrounds. Through their direct involvement in these events members become players in the art scene and citizens engaged in cultural politics.

text:
El renard, el llop i el cavall és una faula de Jean de La Fontaine publicada el 1694, si bé es va fer una primera lectura pública a l'admissió de Nicolas Boileau-Despreaux a l'Acadèmia Francesa, on l'autor va haver de recitar-la dues vegades per demanda dels assistents.

Argument
Un renard va dirigir-se un dia al llop i li digué que havia aparegut una nova bèstia desconeguda als seus dominis, gran i forta. El llop li va pregar que la descrivís però la guineu va afirmar que només veient-la ho entendria. Van apropar-se tots dos al riu, on un cavall bevia aigua i se'ls mirava amb desconfiança. La guineu li va preguntar com es deia i quin tipus d'animal era i el cavall va dir-los que miressin sota les seves potes, ja que allà tenia gravat el nom. El renard va excusar-se, dient que ell era inculte i no sabia pas llegir, mentre que el llop era més intel·ligent que ningú al bosc. El llop, afalagat, va afirmar que podia llegir en qualsevol llengua i es va apropar a les peülles del cavall. Aquest aleshores li va clavar una coça que li va fer perdre quatre dents abans de fugir corrent.

Anàlisi
La faula recull la caracterització típica dels animals en aquesta classe d'història. La guineu apareix com l'essència de l'enginy però també de la malícia, i usa aquests dots per a atacar un enemic usant la seva vanitat com a esquer. Per això no dubta a fingir-se més ximple del que és, en una estratègia adaptativa, per tal d'aconseguir el seu propòsit. El cavall, herbívor i potencial presa dels altres dos, usa les mateixes dots però com a defensa. El llop, en canvi, apareix com a predador sense intel·ligència, ja que cau al parany i rep un cop ben fort com a càstig. Aquest càstig de la supèrbia és una constant dels contes populars. A la faula s'oposa la cultura (el saber llegir) amb la saviesa o el caràcter espavilat, més útils per a la vida quotidiana. Un altre vici que es pot criticar és el de la curiositat, ja que el llop accedeix a apropar-se al cavall perquè no li és suficient la constatació de la seva existència i vol controlar-lo.

La història està inspirada en una narració de Mathurin Régnier, qui al seu torn la va prendre dels renaixentistes italians, entre ells Stefano Guazzo. Conté els elements propis del classicisme francès en la seva factura: composició en vers amb una estricta rima, inspiració en el món grecollatí (en aquest cas les faules de Fedre i Isop que són els que caracteritzen a la guineu com a arquetip de l'enginy), el diàleg moderat i l'explicació racional dels esdeveniments (per exemple es narra sense escarafalls la pèrdua de les dents o no es mostra la reacció emocional dels animals) i la funció moralitzant de l'art. Alterna narració i diàleg com en altres faules de La Fontaine, que descriuen petites escenes que actuen com a episodis independents.

Провулок Михайла Кудрицького — провулок у Корольовському районі міста Житомира.

Характеристики
Розташований у Старому місті, в історичній місцевості Путятинка. Розміщений в кварталі, обмеженому вулицями Героїв Крут, Івана Мазепи, Бориса Тена, Князів Острозьких. Провулок бере початок з вулиці Героїв Крут, прямує на північ та завершується глухим кутом. Забудова провулка — садибна житлова (кінця ХІХ — початку ХХ століття).

Історичні відомості
У першій половині ХІХ століття землі, на яких пізніше виникне провулок були вільними від забудови. У середині ХІХ століття генеральним планом міста землі Путятинки розплановано на житлові квартали прямокутної форми. Упродовж другої половини ХІХ століття згідно з генпланом сформувалися вулиці, що утворили квартал, в якому розпочне формуватися провулок — Дмитрівська (нинішня вулиця Героїв Крут), Міщанська (нині Івана Мазепи), Кашперівська (наразі Бориса Тена).

Наприкінці ХІХ — початку ХХ ст. власники великих садиб, що займали інколи половину або весь квартал здійснювали їх поділ на менші ділянки для подальшого їх продажу. Для проїзду до ділянок всередині кварталів створювались нові провулки, які, як правило, завершувались тупиком.

Провулок виник та сформувався як тупиковий наприкінці ХІХ століття. Отримав назву Графманський. Назва походить від прізвища землевласника й першого забудовника провулка Абрама Графмана, який здійснив поділ власної земельної ділянки на менші ділянки з ціллю подальшого продажу забудовникам.

У 1902 та 1904 роках у купця Абрама Графмана придбав земельні ділянки у Графманському провулку для побудови власних двох житлових будинків Михайло Кудрицький — науковець, освітянин й культурний діяч. У садибі родини Кудрицьких, що складалася з двох житлових будинків № 6 та № 8 виховувалися сини, серед яких Євген та Павло Кудрицькі, а також гостювали Максим Рильський, Софія Коссова, Євген Ненадкевич, Борис Тен, Володимир Боцяновський, Павло Постоєв, Василь Кравченко, Володимир Гнатюк та інші.

За радянських часів у провулку розмістилася трудова школа № 19, провулок перейменовано на Шкільний.

У 1992 році Шкільний провулок перейменовано на провулок Кудрицьких. У 1996 році уточнено назву провулка: провулок Михайла Кудрицького.

У 2013 році на фасаді садиби кінця ХІХ століття, нині дитячого садка №39 та колишньої трудової школи № 19 встановлено меморіальну дошку Михайлові Кудрицькому з поясненням назви провулка.

BONESDRONES – Music That Is Meant To Astound
Sharing is caring! Support Indie Musicians!
Emerging band BONESDRONES is ready to hit the music scene with its new album by evoking a soulful storm and taking the listener on a highly dynamic journey
Windsor, CO — Catering to audiences interested in deep, soulful melodies compared to loud, catchy jingles, the band BONEDRONES has released a new album, 'Red Feather'. The band consists of a two-brother duo gifted with an exceptional talent for creating heart-touching music.
BONEDRONES has released their album, 'Red Feather', as an ode to the time spent in the Northern Colorado mountains. The two brothers have attempted to capture an intimate and peaceful time they experienced at a secluded campsite. Listeners will embark on an emotional journey and experience a milieu of sentiments through this new album. After all, this was the goal of the two brothers. The compositions for the new album have been skillfully mastered by David Glasser, adding finesse to the creative talent of this band.
The album, though short in duration, is best understood when listened from start to finish. "Falling in and out", "Warsong", "Mountain Dusk", and "Find another way" could all be singles, while "Golden West" and the deep acoustic cutthroat song "Before you die" adds rounded emotion to the album.
BONEDRONES have a special message for all their listeners, "Enjoy the music". The band takes great pleasure in interacting with fans and listeners. Feel free to reach out to them on their socials.
BONEDRONES is a unique band with a unique aim. The two brothers who constitute this band write and record original music to capture their own spiritual and emotional journeys. The band name Bone and Drone, according to the brothers, is "a description for being able to travel all emotions through music".

Nations League: Norway rides Haaland double to thrash Northern Ireland 5-1
The Romanians top League B Group 1 on four points with Norway third after losing its first match 2-1 to Austria which is one place above with three points.
BELFAST, 08 September, 2020 09:50 IST
Norway beat Northern Ireland 5-1 in their Nations League match on Monday with Borussia Dortmund striker Erling Haaland leading the charge with two goals and an assist in Belfast on Monday.
Mohamed Elyounoussi gave Norway the lead in the second minute but, after Paddy McNair equalised, Haaland got the goal of the game with an emphatic half-volley from the edge of the box that had keeper Bailey Peacock-Farrell rooted to the spot.
Alexander Sorloth made it 3-1 when he scored from a cross at the far post and the striker doubled his tally two minutes after the restart when Norway launched a counter-attack and Haaland forced his way through to lay it on a plate for a simple tap-in.

Haaland then got his second by completing a fine move in which the ball moved up the pitch with precise one-touch passes for the 20-year-old hitman to curl it into the top corner.
Steven Davis equalled goalkeeper Pat Jennings' record of 119 caps for Northern Ireland but it was a match to forget for the captain as it dropped to the bottom of the group with no wins following its 1-1 draw with Romania last week.
The Romanians top League B Group 1 on four points with Norway third after losing its first match 2-1 to Austria which is one place above the side but also has three points.

Vancouver Island is a small island off the coast of British Columbia that is known for many things. British Columbia's capital is at our southern tip, we have an endless supply of breathtaking beaches, old growth forests and jaw dropping waterfalls. We also happen to be a gardener's dream vacation; Victoria is often touted as Canada's "Garden City" for many reasons. Every year we start the summer by hanging over 1,600 hanging baskets across the city, endless gardens line our sidewalks and intersections. Then you have our long list of public and private gardens. Government house, Butterfly Gardens, Beacon Hill, Hatley Castle, The Horticultural Society of the Pacific, Abkhazi Gardens and of course world famous Butchart Gardens. Every single one of these gardens has an amazing story to tell, from a royal love affair to a literal seaside castle. But one of my favorite stories is that of Jennie Butchart, from an orphan in Ontario to one of Victoria's most prominent and inspirational women of history.
She created something from nothing in a way that had never been seen before and has not been seen since. She was an adventurer and creative soul. Together she and her husband welcomed hundreds of thousands of visitors into their private estate to enjoy what was once just a vision that over years and years of dedicated hard work eventually became a reality. Her legacy lives on and the gardens are now recognised as a National Historic site of Canada. The actual garden layouts and designs haven't changed much since Jennie's time so walking through them you can walk through a piece of Canadian history and appreciate the back breaking labour that went into their creation.
Jennie lost her parents at the young age of twelve and moved in with her aunt. Despite her tragic loss she would eventually earn a scholarship to what was one of Canada's most prestigious schools for girls and be invited to study abroad in Paris when she graduated. Rather than travel to Paris to pursue her education in fine art she married her childhood sweetheart, a handsome young gentleman named Robert Butchart. The young couple travelled to Europe together for their honeymoon and while in England, Robert gained access to a cement recipe that would forever change their lives. Robert was an enthusiastic entrepreneur and recognised Portland Cement was gaining popularity and with no distributors on Canada's west coast Robert took the recipe to create Portland Cement and they made their way to British Columbia. They settled onto a property just outside of Victoria that was rich in limestone deposits, limestone being a crucial ingredient for Portland Cement. Jennie worked alongside her husband and eventually Robert was hugely successful in his efforts. While his success was undoubtedly impressive the aftermath was undeniably ugly to say the least! A massive gaping hole now stared Jennie in the face. It was said to bring her to literal tears, conflicted over the reality that something so ugly could have brought her young family such wealth she now has a problem to solve. After years of working the quarry they had exhausted the limestone and her husband had already moved on to a new location to further his cement making business. Leaving Jennie to stare loathingly at the massive pit in her backyard. She tried to cover it up with fruit and poplar trees, but it was still an eye sore. It was time to let her creativity shine and she set to work on one of the earliest examples of a land reclamation project. Though at the time she was merely trying to cover up the destruction brought about ironically by her husband's very successful business.
Jennie had a vision and despite those around her doubting her dream she stuck to her guns. Wagon after wagon of topsoil was delivered to begin the process of turning an old limestone quarry into the garden of her dreams. Despite being quite well off Jennie never shied away from hard work, at times dangling fifty feet off the side of the quarry, in a bosun chair to push soil and ivy vines into rock crevices to cover the barren and ugly stone walls. It took nine long years for her vision to become a reality but finally her dream was complete and where once stood a hideous example of exploitation of natural resources now stood a stunning garden landscape. They christened it the "Sunken Garden" an appropriate name considering its location, but Jennie was only just getting started!
Between 1906 and 1929 The Butchart's added a Seaside Japanese garden designed by Isaburo Kishida, a seventy-year-old expert in Japanese Garden design that came to Victoria to assist with a garden in gorge park. He would then go on to design Jennie's Japanese gardens and the upper Japanese Gardens at Hatley Castle and a variety of other private and public gardens around the island before returning to Japan. The Italian and rose gardens were also created around this time. The Italian gardens incorporated a large star shaped pond that once housed Roberts prized duck collection. Where his wife collected rare plants, Robert spent his time collecting ornamental birds from around the world. They built the Italian gardens over top of the families Tennis courts. When visiting today you can enjoy traditional gelato at the Gelateria Benvenuto. Somehow Jennie also managed to deliver two beautiful daughters and become a qualified chemist during these years as well. Considering I struggle to manage basic college courses, my small garden and my own two children I frankly have no idea how she managed this but it's safe to say I am in awe of her success!
Word of the Butchart's amazing garden paradise spread quickly, while Victoria was exploding with development during the 1900's Jennie and Robert were quickly becoming local celebrities and laying the groundwork for a tourism industry that would one day be worth millions. They were exceptional examples of kindness and hospitality. By the 1920s over 50,000 people were visiting their home and gardens every year! Not only did they welcome those invited and those uninvited onto their private estate, but Jennie could often be found serving tea directly to her guests herself. The Butchart's started calling their home Benvenuto, meaning welcome in Italian. A term they likely picked up on one of their many trips abroad. If Jennie was not greeting guests in the tea house she was often found with her hands in the dirt, working alongside her gardeners. At times she was even mistaken as one of the groundskeepers. It's said she used to enjoy answering questions but never accepted the tips that were offered, laughingly telling the guests that "the old lady wouldn't like that" referring to herself.
Jennie's gardens became a cornerstone for Victoria and local government would often bring visiting leaders, emperors, and royalty to visit the Butchart's and walk the expansive grounds. In 1939 Queen Elizabeth even walked the gardens and met with Jennie and Robert. As the Butchart's slowed down, their children, grandchildren and great grandchildren stepped in to carry on the legacy. Their own personal additions are visible throughout the grounds. From the Ross Fountain, to the choreographed fireworks, and the wooden carousel of circus animals. Each piece was added over the years and contributes to the legacy of the Butchart's and their breathtaking gardens. Jennie continues to inspire gardeners from around the world and her family has ensured that her hard work stays cemented in time for generations to come.

Someone have any clue to help me from this ?
Thanks in advance.

A: You have tagged this android. On android, most (all?) AWT classes are not available. But POI needs a FontRenderContext to calculate column sizes.
As a workaround, replace your call to autoSizeColumn(2) by setColumnWidth(2, width). A approximate value for width can be calculated by counting the maximum number of characters displayed  in that column by a factor. Start by trying a value of about 0.55 * fontSizeInPoints for proportional fonts.
PS: Next time please provide a complete stack trace and mention the JDK and POI versions that you use.

McNamara HQC Family Day provides time for fun and family
By Dianne Ryder
Sunshine, cooler-than-average temperatures and a plethora of activities and games provided a picture perfect backdrop for thousands of employees to connect with family members and each other during the 2017 McNamara Headquarters Complex Family Day.
Army Lt. Gen. Darrell Williams, the new director of the Defense Logistics Agency, welcomed employees from all HQC organizations and their guests.
"I want to start out by saying how delighted I am to be the new DLA director and how welcome my wife, Myra, and I have felt coming to this absolutely phenomenal organization," Williams said. "We look forward to being a team with you here at DLA, and I would ask you all to warmly welcome her," he said.
He recognized the other hosts of the event; directors from the Defense Threat Reduction Agency, Defense Contract Audit Agency and the Defense Technical Information Center.
"As wonderful as DLA is, the reality is, this is a great complex not just because of DLA, but because of all the other tenant organizations as well," Williams said.
Williams asked the audience to repeat after him the two things all attendees should keep in mind for the day's event: to "have fun and be safe."
Williams participated in the traditional fun run/walk, as did DLA Senior Enlisted Leader Army Command Sgt. Maj. Charles Tobin. Tobin retires in July and Williams thanked him for his 33 years of service.
He asked other participants to raise their hands and then called the first place finishers forward as well as children under 15 years old who participated.
As the audience applauded the achievements, Williams joked, "If you didn't raise your hand, you owe me 10 miles tomorrow!"
Finally, Williams called up everyone who helped plan and execute Family Day to join him.
"This doesn't happen by itself, does it?" he asked the audience. "So I would ask you all to give these heroes a round of applause."
In addition to several corporate sponsors who staffed information booths, several employees volunteered to provide information about their own headquarters organization.
Deborah Reeves, a program analyst in DLA Information Operations was one of these volunteers. She said she appreciates the opportunity to meet up with colleagues and relax on Family Day.
"Oftentimes, we don't a chance to do anything because we are so nailed to our desks," she said. "But this is great – we get to spend time, we get to meet each other's families and we get to make connections that can make us more profitable at work."
Navy Lt. Cmdr. John Olabode, military deputy in DLA Logistics Operations' Planning Division, is new to DLA and had never before attended the event.
Olabode said his wife had to work and was unable come but that their children enjoyed the outdoor activities most of all.
"Lots of people have met my kids today," he said. "I think it's good to get to know families of those you work with, and this is one way to make that happen."
Raymond Martinez, a supply system analyst in DLA Energy, said he's been coming to Family Day for years.
"It's a morale booster," Martinez said. "It's a day to come and share with everybody else."
Martinez said his children reconnected with friends they had known from their days at the HQC child development center. Now those children are nearly teenagers.
"Since the kids are bigger now, there are some [activities] that are more for little kids, so they're very selective," Martinez said. "But they still enjoy coming."
The theme for this year's event, "Building a Better World," was chosen by committee members representing all the tenant organizations, said Beverly Hicks, morale, welfare and recreation program manager for DLA Installation Support.
The HQC MWR program sponsors events like Family Day to improve quality of life and support resiliency among Headquarters Complex employees.
Williams noted during his opening remarks that all tenant agencies support and speak to the importance of resiliency.
"This event is one of those demonstrations of our concern for the workforce and the importance of resiliency," he said.

Remdesivir: The New Evidence
Hot off the *New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM)*press is a new article reporting on the results of a randomized trial of the drug remdesivir in COVID-19 patients. Bottom line: the trial shows the drug is effective both in shortening duration and lowering mortality in patients who are started on treatment before they need a ventilator.
Let's put this in context. If you are looking for some background on the science and more about treatment in general, this is a great time to head over to our Treatment Explainer.
What is Remdesivir?
Remdesivir is an antiviral drug which works by blocking viral RNA so it cannot replicate. This drug existed before COVID-19. Because it relies on a mechanism common to a lot of RNA viruses, researchers had been studying its effectiveness in a number of viruses before SARS-CoV2 came along. Originally designed as a treatment for Hepatitis C and then repurposed for Ebola trials, it has since been shown to be effective against the original SARS and MERS (Middle East Respiratory Syndrome). Because SARS-CoV2 (the virus which causes COVID-19) is related to SARS and MERS, this was identified early on as a possible candidate drug to fight COVID-19.
Why is a randomized trial valuable?
This new NEJM study reports results from a *randomized trial.*This means that this study was conducted by enrolling patients with COVID-19 and randomly choosing some of them to receive doses of Remdesivir while others received the placebo (basically, a sugar pill). The trial enrolled slightly over 1000 people: 541 received remdesivir and 522 received the placebo.
The randomization is key. Because those who received remdesivir were chosen randomly, we can be confident they are not systematically different in other ways than those who got the placebo (i.e. we can be sure that both groups had roughly the same composition of people in terms of gender, age, and medical risk factors.). This type of randomized trial is considered to be the "gold standard" in evidence.
What did the trial find?
The trial found evidence for the efficacy of remdesivir. The two key findings are a shorter recovery time (11 days versus 15 days) and lower mortality at 14 days (7% versus 12%). We've included the key figure showing recovery rates below. The main thing to see is that the proportion recovered is higher at most time scales for the remdesivir group than the placebo group.
The effects were so big the study was stopped early. The data safety and monitoring board (commonly used in these sorts of trials) is a group of experts not involved in the trial tasked with peeking in on the data at certain points to see if anything really good or really bad is happening. They felt these data were so strong that they advised stopping the trial so everyone could benefit.
This trial also allowed doctors to start to see who had the most benefit from the drug. Patients who were hospitalized, or on oxygen, showed a large improvement. This effect begins to decline, however, in patients that were on more heavy duty forms of oxygen therapy, including being intubated (a breathing tube put into their lungs).
We should be clear: this isn't a "cure." The mortality rates in this (high risk) population are still high even in the remdesivir group. But the effects are very large. Scaled up to the infected population, this is a potentially large gain in lives saved.
What do we still need to know?
Lots. There are other candidate treatments, including other antivirals, so it will be useful to see if those drugs work better or worse. Even with remdesivir, we would still like to know whether it works better earlier in the course of the disease or later, whether some patients benefit more, what the optimal dose is, and how big the decrease in mortality is.


It seems that nary week goes by without a clever new custom bike build from an authorised bike dealer appearing in our overworked inboxes. Especially prevalent in Europe, it seems that their in-house access to bikes, mechanics and a shipload of spare and aftermarket parts sets them up for some pretty prime builds. And tonight's bike is no exception. Made by Switzerland's Städler Motos, it's a delicious new Triumph Thruxton R cafe that's been given just enough warming-up to make all but the fussiest Swiss Triumph fans feel all warm and gooey inside.
Städler Motos AG was founded in Widnau, in Switzerland's North East, in 1980. Originally a Suzuki, Ducati, Cagiva and MV Augusta dealership, in 1994 they became one of the country's first Triumph agents. In 1996, KTM and Ducati were added to the roster. The design for this bike was created by Bernhard Städler, the company's owner and founder. In fact, most of the work was done by him in his workshop.
Since they began, Städler Motos' main passion was customising. It's in their blood, and the customer's have come to realise this, too. The origin of this bike is from a customer's spring 2016 order. They bought the bike straight off the showroom floor and asked it to be cafe'd on the spot. The only strict requirement from the customer was that it was to be unique. So it quickly became clear to Städler that they would be producing quite a few custom-made bits before their job was complete. And because of the many specially designed parts, the time span for this project was set at 8 months.
As with their German and Austrian neighbours, the focus of all the Städler custom projects is for them to be street legal. No easy task, if you've ever delved into the world of the Technischer Überwachungsverein, or TüV for short. The upshot of all this means that wild mods are a large fine waiting to happen, while subtle ones are much more likely to get under the radar.
Since the Thruxton's standard suspension was not as adjustable or as slick as the new owner would have liked, the shop developed a completely new set-up in cooperation with Andreani Italy. The new suspension offers a much larger adjustment range than stock, along with a more refined response when pushed hard.
As they wanted to shorten the entire rear section of the bike, a completely new seat and cowl was made in conjunction with sidecar champion Charles Meierhans. Flat and with a classic cafe racer seat, the set-up really stands out from the stock bum bench. And the elaborate metal leaf lacquer in silver with genuine gold detailing was perfected by Peter Herschmann of Chopper Airbrush in Austria according to their detailed specifications. Let's not beat around the bush, it's undoubtedly for attracting attention. Then the swingarm and suspension struts were powdercoated black, and any other pieces that missed out were sent for black anodising.
Next, a very expensive day out shopping bagged the team a new exhaust system from Vance & Hines in ceramic black, some black wheels and several other parts from Triumph themselves, a set of Motone kneepads, a neat pair of LSL 'bars, a Pazzo clutch and brake lever, a new LED Headlight with a daylight setting, two Kellermann rear combo lights, and a pair of Motoeleven mirrors to wrap things up. Sounds better than Christmas and your birthday all wrapped into one.
Developing a suspension set-up that is even more refined than the Triumph engineers' own was always going to be a massive challenge. And as the specialists were in Italy, is was certainly a mammoth task of coordination, too. The final seat unit was made from several detailed prototypes, and it demanded a certain endurance in order to see the idea through from start to finish.
And Städler Motos greatest pleasure during the process? Perhaps it was the moment they presented the finished bike to the customer. On that fateful evening, the eloquent company manager became a stunned boy, who reportedly couldn't avert his gaze away from his new cafe racer for more than an hour. Now that's what we call a satisfied customer.


Insights about customers are by products of a marketer's ability to get a single view of the customer.
This can only be achieved if you are able to gather customer insight across all channels – Search, Social, Video/Viral, Display, email, etc. and now, all devices as well. The concept of a single, central customer profile is as much difficult to find as it is difficult to convince marketers about, simply because it is not easy to achieve. A lot of work needs to go in to getting to a stage where marketers can leverage master data about buyers and attach attributes to master data.
The path to solid customer experience management begins at journey mapping.
In the Web 101 days, prospects used to sign up on websites and would leave such sites without even caring for any follow up emails coming their way. Such emails were irrelevant anyway. But try doing this with a prospect/customer today and you can be assured they will never come back to you. The journey has changed and as marketers it is important to recognize that if you do not keep pace with the rapid and dynamic journey that a customer is prone to have today – flipping from your retargeted ad on Facebook back to your subscription offer on email – you stand to lose the game and the battle.

…In this slide-filled lecture, Tom Moser relates the process of discovery that led him to furniture design, and how the Shaker community located near his first shop in New Gloucester, Maine has influenced his work.
Family, personal, and company memories flowed in Mr. Moser's presentation to an audience of several hundred at the banquet held during the conference. He was funny, affable, and down-to-earth; a perfect gentleman and the consummate businessman. The slide show journey brought the audience from the humble beginnings of Thos. Moser, Cabinetmakers, to the enormous success it is today.
A personal note: The description of the Moser's travels in Asia took Sandy and I back in time. Immediately following the dinner and speech we were lucky to run into Mr Moser and his wonderful wife Mary in the hallway. In passing them I asked him a short question about a certain locale in Asia, not wanting to detract from their conversation with someone else. His eyes lit up, and we spent the next 20 minutes together, reminiscing with relish about locales and details from our parallel journeys almost 20 years apart. This was a wonderful end to a terrific speech about the exciting life experience of the Mosers.
My hope is that in this edited version of a one-hour speech you are able to also glean into the life the Mosers, and the company they have built. It is a great journey, filled with great successes and a few setbacks.
I also hope that the story of Thos. Moser, Cabinetmakers, will get you in the mood to plan on attending the next Woodworking in America Hand Tools and Techniques conference, coming up soon in Valley Forge, Pa. October 2-4.
Duration: 14 min., 55 sec.
Grain. Direction. Ebonizing and grain texture. Change of direction. Sculpted curves and flow. Building process. Flow. Chatoyance. Sam Maloof and inspiration… Woodworking in America, St Charles, Ill.
Brian Boggs uses "…the wood's grain…to complement the overall piece…" And he makes the components of his chairs flow together, to make a single statement. He uses curves in the design, and the grain of the wood, as part of the design.
In this session I gained better insight into things I should be doing with grain as part of the overall design of a piece of furniture. Does the grain direction work where the leg meets the stretcher? Or does it detract from the overall design? Is it supporting a curve, of flowing against it? And so on.
Using a few examples of chairs he shared with the audience, I focused on highlighting a few key ideas in the edited video of Boggs' session. As a result, I hope to have caught the spirit of composing with the grain, in the way he intended to convey in his session. If I did not, it is my fault. But listening to him I realized he loves making chairs, and he loves composing with grain as he designs.
I love the sheer simplicity of Shaker furniture. Greene & Greene appeals to my senses, even if I don't know how to make a G&G piece. I like the look of furniture crafted in pine, and in native woods. I love the looks of old furniture. Until this session, I just did not understand contemporary furniture and, even less, how it might be shaping today's work.
I have extracted 15 clips from a 92-minute video I filmed during this presentation. I hope it is representative of what we saw and heard.
Dr. Oscar Fitzgerald delivered a presentation that opened my eyes to contemporary furniture design. He used a terrific set of slides that brought the audience from furniture design at the end of the 19th century, to the most recent important pieces of the twentieth century. For me, this was a journey of discovery, for I did not understand its importance.
In this lecture, you'll follow the history of contemporary design during the last 100 years, from mass-produced machine-age pieces to the iconoclastic work of individual makers that have change woodworking, such as George Nakashima, James Krenov, Art Carpenter, Sam Maloof and others.
I invite you to read Dr Fitzgerald's bio at the Presenters page of the conference announcement.
Now that I understand the importance of 20th century design a little better, I hope to study more about it. And maybe I will become better at design, in the process. This is but one example of the importance of these conferences; they open our eyes to previously unexplored areas, with many possibilities. It is my wish that many of you also have an opportunity to attend future events, for they are a terrific way to learn, so that we may move forward.

Sandalwood's drug link: Indrajit Lankesh gives 'all info' to officials
Bangalore Mirror Bureau / Updated: Sep 1, 2020, 06:00 IST
Indrajit Lankesh
Central Crime Branch sleuths on Monday recorded statements from filmmaker Indrajit Lankesh and collected information on the consumption of drugs in Sandalwood.
Lankesh had claimed that there is a huge drug network in Sandalwood. After his statements, the CCB had issued him a notice to appear before them and share the information. On Monday, he was questioned for over five hours which was recorded.
According to the sources, he submitted a couple of photos, videos and other digital evidence.
Speaking to the media, Lankesh said, "Many newcomers in the industry had become brand ambassadors of drugs. I have shared all the names of those involved in it, including the drug dealers. I have given them 10-15 names along with the evidence and contents."
Joint commissioner of police, Crime, Sandeep Patil said: "We will enquire into it and take appropriate legal action."
Former CM HD Kumaraswamy added his views on the controversy, saying that he had tried to crack down on a drug racket during his rule. "Some ran away to Sri Lanka. Drugs and betting money were used to topple my government," he said.
Crackdown on peddlers
The city police are tracking down drug peddlers and finding out their sources. The Vijaynagar police on Sunday carried out a search operation at the house of an accused who was arrested for assaulting a traffic police constable. The police had found a packet of marijuana from his pocket.
