University of Idaho secures $11M investment for nation's largest research dairy
Research will address constraints on water usage and environmental quality while supporting the agricultural sectors of the dairy, livestock, cropland and food processing industries and exploring solutions for long-term sustainability.
Design of what is said to be the nation's largest research dairy begins as University of Idaho (U of I), Moscow, Idaho, secured an additional $11 million for the 540-acre Idaho Center for Agriculture, Food and the Environment (CAFE).
Earlier this month, U of I received a $1 million gift from the J.R. Simplot Co., Boise, Idaho, to bring the university commitment for the project to $10 million in order to begin the design and construction phase of the project.
"We support this project given the overall focus to improve the sustainability of agriculture across Southern Idaho through a deeper understanding of 'how we farm' and its impacts on our soil and water," says Scott Simplot, chairman of the J.R. Simplot Co. board of directors.
Led by U of I, the project's footprint will span three counties, with the research dairy located near Rupert, Idaho, a discovery complex near Jerome and collaborative food science efforts with other institutions like the College of Southern Idaho, Twin Falls, Idaho.
"Projects like CAFE demonstrate the importance of our land-grant mission and the impact it has on the state," says Scott Green, president of U of I. "The university is grateful to the Simplot Co. for helping us release this funding and to the state of Idaho for its commitment in support of agriculture and our dairy research."
The timeline calls for construction to begin in mid-2021, with completion in 2023.
U of I College of Agricultural and Life Sciences (CALS) began work on building a large-scale research dairy. CAFE was reinvigorated in 2017 with a plan to acquire the $45 million needed for the project from internal U of I resources, partners in industry and state funds.
"We are extremely pleased to reach this milestone and believe it reflects the many positive steps we have taken as a university," says Michael Parrella, CALS dean. "Our partnership with the dairy industry and a wide range of other groups to plan and fund this project underlines its importance to Idaho agriculture."
Research at CAFE will address constraints on water usage and environmental quality while supporting the agricultural sectors of the dairy, livestock, cropland and food processing industries and exploring solutions for long-term sustainability.

Yes, I know I haven't posted anything is a while....I've been socked by the flu and whatever energy I've had has gone into getting geared up for summer research, which started this week.
I do have five rolls of film I need to develop; hopefully I'll be able to go down to Project Basho to do that in the next week or two. There are a couple of rolls from a John Mellencamp concert, and three rolls from the Alejandro Escovedo/Jesse Malin show at World Cafe.


text:
El canon bíblico protestante comprende 39 libros del Antiguo Testamento (según el canon judío del Tanaj, a veces conocido por los no protestantes como los libros protocanónicos) y los 27 libros del Nuevo Testamento para un total de 66 libros.

Esta práctica fue estandarizada entre los protestantes después de la decisión de 1825 por la Sociedad Bíblica Británica y Extranjera. Esto a menudo se contrasta con los 73 libros del canon católico, que incluye 7 libros deuterocanónicos como parte del Antiguo Testamento.

Características

La Biblia protestante excluye los libros deuterocanónicos del Antiguo Testamento debido a que sigue el canon del Tanaj.  Históricamente no ha sido siempre así. La Biblia del Oso tenía incluidos los deuterocanónicos, y estaban ubicados según el orden de la Biblia católica. En la Biblia del Cántaro se pusieron los deuterocanónicos en una sección aparte, entre el Antiguo Testamento y el Nuevo Testamento. Fue a partir de las revisiones hechas por las Sociedades Bíblicas Unidas desde 1862 que se eliminaron de la Reina-Valera esos libros.

Por otra parte, la Biblia protestante no trae sabiduría, ni notas explicativas cuando se trata de verdaderas biblias para predicación y trae las notas explicativas en todos los casos cuando se tratan de biblias de estudio.. Una excepción es la Edición SUD de la La Iglesia de Jesucristo de los Santos de los Últimos Días, la cual tiene notas explicativas y resúmenes de cada capítulo, desde la perspectiva del mormonismo.

Otra  de las Biblias protestantes con anotaciones es la Biblia de Referencia Scofield editada por el teólogo y estudiante de la Biblia Cyrus Ingerson Scofield.

Su primera publicación fue en el año 1909 en su versión en lengua inglesa  sobre la Biblia King James.
La Biblia de Scofield en español actualmente utiliza  la versión Reina Valera de 1960.
La Biblia Anotada de Scofield en su versión castellana ha sido de influencia en la teología de la mayoría de las iglesias de habla hispana.

When will the new emerge – and if it is already here, how do we decipher it? In which ways do people live their lives with joy and creativity and beauty, sometimes amid suffering and violence, and sometimes perpendicular to it? How do people fashion routines and make sense of the world in the face of the temporariness or volatility that defines so many of the arrangements of social existence here?
These questions loom over a contemporary Africa. Yet most knowledge produced on the continent remains heavily reliant on simplistic and rigid categories unable to capture the complexities that inflect so much of contemporary quotidian life here.
The Chronic is one small, deeply subjective attempt to do things differently. Ironically, we started with what we know, taking inspiration from the flexibility, readiness to take risks, and ability to manoeuvre through different temporal orders that defines life here.
We recognised the newspaper – a popular medium that raises the perennial question of news and newness, of how we define both the now and history, as the means to best engage the present; this question of thinking and writing critically about contingency and human agency today. We selected the medium both for its disposability and its longevity, its ability to fashion routine in a way that allows us to traverse, challenge and negotiate liminality in everyday life.
We wrote, we got our friends and partners to write, draw and photograph, we edited, and we compiled. We sought out stories that articulate the complexity, the innovation, thinking and dreams – all the things that make life sustainable in this place. We favoured writing, art and photography that is open, plural, and inflected by the workings of power, innovation, creativity and resistance – yes, resistance.


The process of programming in the field of classic music is still strongly based on predictability: an artistic idea, that has been developed, is supposed to be produced according to that idea. In particular the system of sponsorship and application assumes this process, in which the artistic idea and its production are independent procedures. Agile Program Management describes a radical open ended procedure, in which the process is more important than the anticipated artistic outcome. It assumes, that such a non-linear thing as creativity is by it's nature unpredictable and highly influenced by random turns and emergence of game-changing new ideas, which are won't come to life if we "stick to a plan". Agile Program Management thus tries to keep the process agile as long possible – in my opinion an valuable framework and almost requirement for artistic innovation. With examples from our work at PODIUM Esslingen and fail-reports, from which we can learn.

The distinguished career of the carrier Victorious extended from World War II to 1967. A major refit during the 1950's, saw her emerge as the Royal Navy's most advanced carrier in the world. The author's drawings show all the changes which she underwent during her long career, while the text focuses especially on her war service which included a number of daring airstrikes, most notably against the German battleships Bismarck and Tirpitz. Later she sailed for the Far East where she was part of the British Pacific Fleet; there she withstood several kamikaze attacks. The Anatomy of the Ship Series: This highly acclaimed series aims to provide the finest documentation of individual ships and ship types ever published. What makes the series unique is a complete set of superbly executed line drawings, both the conventional type of plan as well as explanatory perspective views. This is the first attempt to document a ship - literally down to the nuts and bolts. These drawings are accurate, visually exciting and totally comprehensive, offering ship buffs, historians and modelmakers a novel insight into the technicalities of each ship type covered.


Joe is from Arkansas (pronounced Arkansaw), USA. He studied in Harvard and Princeton before travelling eastward to L'Abri, Switzerland and then finally to England. Joe is fun, relational, daring, pensive and one in a million. His role in the student team and life in general is to be the grandfather of any who desire him to be. Joe owns the biggest personal library we have ever seen and enjoys playing the ukulele, singing, hosting, showing people his Arkansas merchandise and organising barn dances. Joe became a Christian whilst at Harvard where God moved him from being a 'soft' Atheist to a follower of Christ. In Oxford, he loves encouraging students to relate their faith to their learning and to see their academic study as giving glory to God.

                </form>

A: No caso de uma alteração, vc precisa recuperar esse registro no banco de dados antes. Crie um método para alteração que recupera o usuário no banco de dados e ai sim salva a alteração. Por exemplo:
@Service
public class ServiceUsuario {

@Autowired
private RepositoryUsuario repUsuario;

@Autowired
private BCryptPasswordEncoder passwordEncoder;

public Usuario encontrarPorUsername(String Username) {
    return repUsuario.findByUsername(Username);
}

public void atualiza(Usuario usuario) {
    // Supondo que vc já tenha buscado o usuário antes de alterar, vc terá o id.
    // Caso contrário vc pode buscar pelo username acrescentando um método na sua
    // interface (findByUsername)
    Usuario registro= repUsuario.findById(usuario.getId());
    if (Objects.nonNull(registro)) {
        registro.setNome(usuario.getNome());
        registro.setSobrenome(usuario.getSobrenome());
        registro.setEmail(usuario.getEmail());
        registro.setUsername(usuario.getUsername());
        registro.setSenha(usuario.getSenha());
        registro.setReceita(usuario.getReceita());
        registro.setComentario(usuario.getComentario());
        repUsuario.save(registro);
    } else {
        repUsuario.save(usuario);
    }
}

public void salvar(Usuario usuario) {
    usuario.setSenha(passwordEncoder.encode(usuario.getSenha()));
    repUsuario.save(usuario);
}

public Usuario getOne(Long id) {
    return repUsuario.getOne(id);
}

Dessa forma quando vc quiser atualizar um registro, basta passar o Usuario no método de atualizar.
Queria deixar uma dica pra vc tbm caso queira: de uma olhada sobre o modelo REST, que contém princípios fundamentais e de boas práticas na construção de aplicações Web. O seu projeto fica devendo em algumas partes.

A: Acredito que o problema esteja ocorrendo devido seu objeto Usuario não estar mais na sessão do Hibernate, então o comportamento padrão do JPARepository é aplicado:

Saving an entity can be performed via the CrudRepository.save(…)-Method. It will persist or merge the given entity using the underlying JPA EntityManager. If the entity has not been persisted yet Spring Data JPA will save the entity via a call to the entityManager.persist(…)-Method, otherwise the entityManager.merge(…)-Method will be called.

Sugiro realizar a seguinte alteração:
@Transactional
public void salvar(Usuario usuarioAlteracao) {
    Usuario usuario = getOne(usuarioAlteracao.getId());
    usuario.setSenha(passwordEncoder.encode(usuarioAlteracao.getSenha()));
    repUsuario.save(usuario);
}

Isso irá colocar o usuário na sessão, e irá realizar o merge da entidade.

Endicott College & Beverly Main Streets are pleased to announce that Beverly artist Brian Murphy, will be the Arts Fest 2019 Featured Artist.
Brian Murphy is a multi-disciplinary artist whose creative output includes sculpture, mixed media, furniture, and painting. A graduate of Rhode Island School of Design, he has worked in the advertising and commercial art world for over 33 years, earning design awards along the way.
Very active in the Beverly and North Shore communities he is a past president and longtime member of the Beverly Rotary Club, past president of St. Vincent dePaul Society, board member of Good Friday Walk, board member of Fischer and Fuel Society of Beverly, North Shore Chamber of Commerce, ambassador and former board member of Beverly Youth Hockey as well as coach for many youth sports teams. He has also donated his time and talents to Beverly Main Streets and many other Beverly committees and organizations.
Combining love of sculpture and painting, his art uses wood, found objects, metals, and anything else he can get his hands on to repurpose an object bringing it new life seen in a different way. Creating mixed media sculptures that include anything from old pipes, discarded hardware, and many other found objects, that when put together, beg the viewer to guess what this piece, or that, was in a previous life. His painting work captures light, shadow and how it transforms the surface to give the subject volume and an overall soothing feel. He has done many commissions in various mediums as well. His art can be found in private and public collections across the country.
Brian Murphy represents the growing creative economy that has emerged in the City of Beverly.

(VLMP) Who are the CLIPPers?
The CLIPPers are the volunteer invasive plant patrol coordinated by Lisa Hall that promotes prevention, early detection and rapid response to invasive plants on Crescent Lake. Volunteers are trained to recognize the invasive aquatic plants on Maine's "eleven most unwanted" list, and to distinguish these invaders from their native Maine look-alikes.
Crescent Lake is divided into sections with each section being patrolled, surveyed and inventoried each year. These reports are provided to the Lake Stewards of Maine annually.
What You Should Know About Invasive Plant Patrol This organization (Lake Stewards of Maine) has been keeping watch on Maine lakes and rivers since 1971. This presentation will give you the background of this important work.
I am happy to report that NO invasive plants were found in Crescent Lake during our recent summer survey! The all-volunteer "CLIPPers" (Crescent Lake Invasive Plant Patrol) monitored all of the Crescent Lake shoreline and found only native Maine aquatic plants! Lisa Hall CLIPPer Coordinator.
The CLIPPers for Crescent Lake Invasive Plant Patrol volunteers spent 104.25 hours patrolling Crescent Lake in 2018. Here is what was found and where these plants are located on Crescent Lake.
We are on the look out for invasive species to ensure we protect Crescent Lake. Prevention is the best course of action. These pictures will provide you with a look at those invasives that are considered "most wanted".
Maine Milfoil Initiative, Saint Joseph's College; Roberta J. Hill, Invasive Species Program Director Maine Volunteer Lake Monitoring Program. The guide is "dedicated to the citizens and lake groups of Maine who have committed back-breaking labor, ingenuity, and personal financial resources to battle the spread of invasive aquatic plants on Maine's lakes. Their unflagging passion has turned the tide in the battle for the preservation of our unique and irreplaceable water resources."


The Republican Brotherhood is one of the earliest examples of a reformist movement in Islamic societies that addressed issues of the status of women and non-Muslims in Islamic states.
The Jamhuriyin, as the Republican Brothers are known in Sudan, were founded by Mahmud Muhammad Taha in 1945 as the Republican Party, one of many parties struggling for independence from Great Britain. Although the party favored independence, it scored no electoral victories when independence was achieved in 1956. In 1958, Taha began campaigning for Islamic reform, after the 1964 broadly democratic popular October Revolution that overthrew the first military regime of Abboud. From its origins it has acted less like a party and more like a movement, and grew over the next two decades. Its youthful followers, female as well as male, engaged in public teaching and proselytizing on the streets of Khartoum and Omdurman, and at the universities. A parallel Republican Sisters branch was formed specifically for education and outreach to women, although Taha's seminars in his home were famous for being coeducational, with lively participation on the part of women.
The movement was unique in Islamic Africa and the Middle East at the time. Taha wrote a number of books and several hundred pamphlets dealing with the theological and philosophical bases of his reform program, which came to be known as the Second Message of Islam. The Republican Brotherhood was the popular name for what Taha called the New Islamic Mission, which was intended to develop a new Muslim consciousness with a modern vision of the faith of Islam and Islamic law, shariʿa. Taha's analysis was based upon historical and contextual analysis of the Qurʾanic texts revealed to the prophet Muhammad between 610 and 632 c.e. at Mecca and Medina. The earlier Meccan texts deal with religious belief and practice and are meant as a universal message for all humankind, whereas the later Medinan texts he saw as intended to reform Arab society through the newly enlightened community of Muslims. Taha argued that shariʿa and Muslim practice should be based upon the primary Meccan texts. His writings and teachings were circulated through more than 200 pamphlets, which ranged from the basic theological points of the Second Message to the reform of specific aspects of the shariʿa and the status of women. The Republican Brothers specifically called for reform of Islamic law in regard to women and Muslim marriage, seeking to reduce or eliminate expensive dower (mahr) and equalize the status of women and men in marriage. For example, they argued for marriage contracts that pledged monogamy on the part of the husband and gave both partners equal rights to divorce. Republican egalitarianism extended to non-Muslims as well; their religious rights and freedoms would be protected equally with those of Muslims.
While the movement generally abjured direct involvement in politics, it nonetheless opposed the Sudan government's Islamization of law. In September 1983, General Muhammad Jaʿfar Numeiri declared that shariʿa would be comprehensively applied as state law, despite the fact that one-third of the population, especially in the south, is animist or Christian. This precipitated a resumption of civil war over the issues of autonomy and religious freedom, which had been negotiated in the Addis Ababa Peace Accords of 1972. The Republican Brotherhood launched a major campaign against this imposition of shariʿa. With the divisive effect of Islamic law apparent, the movement intensified its criticism of the regime in a leaflet of protest issued symbolically on 25 December 1984. In response, the government arrested five Republican leaders, including Taha, charging them with sedition, undermining the constitution, and inciting unlawful opposition to the government. By January 1985, all had been found guilty of apostasy and sentenced to death. All repented and received reprieves except Mahmud Taha, who, then in his mid-seventies, was executed by hanging. Within two months, a popular uprising overthrew the Numeiri regime; many of its opponents had been galvanized into action by Taha's death.

?Concept albums (and rock operas are a type of concept album) tend to be pretty nerdy propositions on their own, as they insist on continuity in a medium in which it is not always welcome. Most people just want to listen to music, not get involved in some indulgent story about alien gynecologists or what have you. Yet the concept album must hold a powerful allure to sophomore bands, largely due to its habit of transforming a mere "collection of songs" into something resembling a "creative vision." Whether or not it denotes actual artistic prowess, it at least gives the illusion of it.
Most concept albums are either based on intricate storylines thought up by the band members or adaptations of existing works. Sometimes, the adaptation can also be a backdoor dry run for a stage musical (which we will also see). Regardless, the fact that so many musicians are nerds at heart and the fact that concept albums came into vogue about the same time as progressive rock (the SINGLE GREATEST GENRE OF MUSIC EVER) means we have a large amount of material to work with. A lot of these are just classic works of literature that have inspired many, but somehow, when transformed into works of music even something everyone knows from high school can suddenly obtain an extra nerdy edge.
No surprise: it is kind of an internationally recognized literary classic, after all, read by nerds and non-nerds alike. The Subhumans, Rick Wakeman, and the Alan Parsons Project (get used to seeing them on this list) have all recorded full-length or near full-length albums based on the book, but one of the best examples has to be Diamond Dogs, originally meant to be an entire musical adaptation of the Orwell novel but later scaled down into a 2112-esque half-concept production. Well, that's not entirely true, since pretty much all of the songs are linked thematically to the idea of an apocalyptic world and paranoia, even if only four of them relate directly to Big Brother. But it's the specificity of those last few songs that put them above the slew of other songs like them on the musical landscape: you can tell that Bowie not only liked the book, he paid attention too. And let's not forget that the album ends with the haunting "Chant of the Ever Circling Skeletal Family", which surely has to be one of the best names for a rock track ever.
I'll admit it: Jeff Wayne's Musical Version of The War of the Worlds used to scare the bezeezus out of me as a kid. My mom had the vinyl recording, and I distinctly remember the terrifying album artwork (the ravens pecking out the tripod eyes, the destruction of the Thunder Child, the red weed, all rendered in delectable detail) not to mention the echoey electro-bellowing of the Martians found throughout the album itself. Nowadays I'm more scared by the idea that they might actually turn this into a movie. They're already on their way, as Wayne has apparently spent the past few years touring with a full orchestra and Richard Burton's disembodied head to celebrate the 30th anniversary. Singing war machines aside, you've gotta love the epic '70s sweep of the music, especially in this sequence with Thin Lizzy Phil Lynott as the jaded Parson Nathaniel. Despite what you think, the album is fairly dark, with much of the carnage and despair described pretty plainly.
I suppose this could have just been a list of Alan Parsons albums and related material, given the Project's tendency towards writing songs based on things like the Pyramids of Giza or the works of Sigmund Freud. Although this album could have been far more faithful had Asimov not already sold the rights (thereby preventing the lyrics from getting into the Three Laws explicitly and forcing APP to drop the comma), we're still within the basic thematic realm of the book, just a lot broader. And even if the source is a little distant, we still have the rockin' like-Manheim-Steamroller-but-better force of tunes like this one. I also love the random Allman Brothers-esque bit that pops up in the middle, then quietly makes its exit, embarrassed of itself.
Tarot cards function on many levels, the most basic being as a collection of pictures and archetypes about as old as life itself. Another well-known fact about the Tarot is that it is regularly turned to as a source of ideas by artists, truer for no one more than the fantasy-freak proggers from the '70s. Be that as it may, we have a few whole albums that borrow from them for inspiration: namely In the Region of the Summer Stars by British Qualuude-rockers The Enid and former Genesis guitarist Steve Hackett's Voyage of the Acolyte, his first solo work. Tarot enthusiasts will have to judge for themselves whether or not each track of Acolyte matches up with the card it is named after, but one thing we can all agree on, nerd or not, is that "Ace of Wands" is fantastic, perfect music for standing in front of a paisley quilt and suddenly looking up dramatically. As a side note, does anyone remember that British show Ace of Wands? It had a pretty trippy theme song, as I recall, though nothing like Hackett's sweep-picking madness.
One of the most enduring cycles of lore in history, it warms my cold English major's heart to see so many turning to the ancient stories for inspiration (maybe it just makes for cool album art ideas). They seem to have particular appeal to metalheads, with artists like Kamelot and Gary Hughes devoting much of their time to the saga (Hughes released two "Once and Future King" albums, actually). We also can't forget Rick Wakeman, who not only recorded a concept album, he toured with the semi-infamous "King Arthur on Ice". But I thought you guys might be getting a little tired of prog, so let's listen to this track from Grave Digger's Excalibur for a little metal break.
I don't need to tell you guys that there's been a phenomenal amount of Tolkien-based music, as artists from Led Zeppelin to Leonard Nimoy have turned to Tolk and made sonic history. Generally, music based on his works falls into one of two camps: folk music and Blind Guardian. Yes, there are other Tolkien-obsessed metal bands but BG have the distinction of Nightfall on Middle Earth, an entire album steeped in Silmarillion and powered by the gnarled screams of frontman/songwriter/black turtlenecker Hansi K?rsch, who namedrops Valinor, Noldor, and the Silmarils among others.
The Tolkien ensemble may not have any of that going for them but they are another "concept band" and have managed to cut four albums of songs adapted from LOTR in an effort to create a complete catalog of Middle-Earth folksongs, I guess. They also have Christopher Lee warbling a wistful Ent ballad, and we all know those tree-people were musical geniuses.
Of course The Great Old Ones have had their hand in many works of music, especially when it comes to doom metal and the like (Catacombs seems to be a Cthulhu concept band). However, I feel like the inherent nerdiness of Blue ?yster Cult has been greatly neglected by TR in the past, and that ends right now. Imaginos may not be an explicit rendering of Cthulhu but it draws heavily from the idea of history being shaped by omnipresent, profoundly evil alien beings and their followers. Here they are called "Les Invisibles" and seem to be tied more strongly to indigenous Central American, Haitian and Mexican culture, but they retain the enormous powers, mysterious identities and cults of mindless followers. Yes, sure enough, one of these cults is known as… do I even need to finish? Suffice it to say it's a better band name origin story than, say, the Test Icicles.
For those of you unfamiliar, the somewhat tragically named Mr. Moorcock is the creator of numerous science fiction and fantasy characters, most notably antiheroes like psychedelic agent of chaos Jerry Cornelius and albino emperor Elric of Melnibon?. The latter is the subject of many novels and stories, as well as the album The Chronicles of the Black Sword by Hawkwind (though Cornelius is referenced too in the above track "Needle Gun"). Michael himself made appearances onstage with the band to narrate certain sections during their accompanying tours, along with a pantomime dancer in a wig, a big fake sword and about 90,000 strobe lights, observable here. He also co-wrote the song "Veteran of the Psychic Wars" for the B?C, which is just too perfect, really.
Ok, so it's one thing to take a cycle of epic literature about fantasy warriors or robots or whatever and try to set that to music. It is quite, QUITE another to do the same to a scientific work explaining evolution. And yet Italian band Banco del Mutuo Soccorso did that and then some in 1972 with their landmark second album Darwin! (I love how they were so unable to contain their enthusiasm). Jam-packed with dense and grandiose lyrics about life creating itself and atavistic skulls, track titles include "The Conquest of the Erect Position", "Dance of the Giant Reptiles", and (my personal favorite) "750,000 Years Ago…Love?" Thanks to my buddy Zack for helping me with the translation, and thanks to these guys for combining science with wrenching vocals and what sounds at times like proto-Sega Genesis music. That alone makes it an achievement worth praising loudly.

Problems In The Land Of Downloads
A pair of articles from Ars Technica tosses a dash of cold water on one of the better reasons to own a new console these days, downloadable content. The first indicates that Microsoft's latest attempt to make a more expensive console is having a bit of a DRM issue:
I moved my Live account from my old system to the Elite easily enough, and then I started to redownload all my Arcade games. This is kind of a process since I have over 20 games and the system only lets you queue up to six downloads at a time. I sat down and played some Geometry Wars, and then I remembered hearing about the problems people had with migrating their games. I rarely have my system away from my home network, so I reached back and unplugged the cable to see if I could play the games without the online authentication.
All the games, all of them, turned into demos that asked me to download the full version. This is very unhappy making. I plug my cable back in and get on the phone.
-- If you upgrade into an Elite, your Arcade games have a surprise for you
For those too lazy to follow that link, the phone call doesn't go well.
The second reports that the Wii's Virtual Console is getting sluggish sales as of late:
As of January 24, over 1.5 million games had been downloaded from the Virtual Console. Given the low cost for Nintendo inherent in the Virtual Console system, this was a remarkable show for a collection of age-old games that would have otherwise been mere memories. From February until now, though, sales were in the 1.8 million range; a strange occurrence given that the console's user base has grown substantially since early January. Iwata's comments suggest that in the first two months Nintendo was selling 750,000 titles each month, but that has dipped to 600,000/month since February. Those aren't bad sales numbers, but with many more Wiis in use today than in December, the downturn is surprising.
-- Nostalgia getting old? Virtual Console sales heading south
I think the real problem here is that until the Wii's library significantly improves, the VC is one of the better reasons to own the machine. Since most people probably buy a Wii due the hype surrounding the controller, I doubt this could lead to a decline in overall hardware sales for the big N - but it's not a shiny moment for them.

1) A NeoGAF post a while back had the right word for the kind of DRM issues we're going to see in a few years: "life expectancy". How long can you expect those digital purchases to last? So far dealing with iTunes, arguably the biggest DRM vendor anywhere, has been reasonable. For $0.99 a song you could recover things you lost somehow, at the very worst. But when it comes to microtransactions (which can pile up in a hurry) and full game downloads, the bills to just replace rather than argue with customer support are going to get big quickly.
And, unlike iTunes, you can't back your stuff up to CD.
It's going to get nasty when the next generation arrives and Microsoft wants to charge you a transfer fee to move all you stuff. Or Sony. Or Nintendo. Or Valve.
2) I didn't read the story at the link, so sorry if this was already said, but it appears to me that Nintendo are making good on their promise to recruit more people to gaming. That is, the first waves of Wii hardware went to the faithful and the hardcore, i.e. the heavy VC users. Now that the general public is getting most of the new Wii hardware, the number of downloads per owner will of course drop, because those new systems belong to grandparents and parents who never played anything on the NES or SNES or Genesis or TG16. They're happily playing Wii Sports and such, and Nintendo's plenty happy to have them.
3) Also worth noting that Sony documents precisely how to upgrade your PS3 if you want, and that provides ... in a sense ... a means to back up your data. Whether that works in practice moving to a new platform, who knows?
Yeah, my only complaint with iTunes is that you can't redownload again on registered computers - but I get that limitation to a certain degree ... I just think forcing a CD burn is annoying at times (especially when it comes to things like audiobooks).
But it's better than just being left out to dry, which seems to be the norm and certainly what some Elite users just wandered into. It will be interesting to see just how well Sony, Nintendo or Valve follows suit.
On a side note, I'll probably download Steam tonight. Just to see if it can improve the derth of titles I've got right now on the PC.
Yeah, the Wii's VC is certainly not a widespread appeal model. Nintendo needs to open up to the indie market and not just the emu crowd for that to happen - so for a certain extent it's a demographic thing. However, I think it's also an offering problem. I mean, some Turbo GFX game I've never heard is neat and all - but where is GoldenEye anyway?

Global Payments: No More Than 1.5 Million Accounts Compromised
Payments processor also says that some merchant applicants' information may have been compromised.
By David Morrison | June 13, 2012 at 05:27 AM
Global Payments Inc., the latest payments processor to have reported a significant breach of its card security systems, has announced that no more than 1.5 million accounts were compromised in the incident.

Dreams really did come true for Cashelbay Stud at this years Horse of the Year Show in the UK when Michael Harty rode the winner in the ridden Connemara class at the Horse of the Year show on Cashelbay Rocket. To the best of our knowledge Michael is the first Irish rider to win this class on an Irish bred pony.
Cashelbay Rocket was bred by Robbie and Barbra Fallon on the family farm in Athenry Co Galway. Not alone did they breed this stallion they also bred both the dam an…d Sire, Cashelbay Misty and Cashelbay Cruise. We remember Cashelbay Cruise as he was a regular stallion on the show circuit clocking up many great wins and championships. Cashelbay Cruise is a full brother to the famous Stallion, Cashelbay Prince, who won the stallion class in Clifden in 2017 and coincidentally qualified for the same ridden class as Cashelbay Rocket at Horse of the Year show in 2009.
Furthermore Robbie and Barbara Fallon are also the breeders of the ever consistent Cashelbay JJ (Castleside JJ x Ballybawn Cashel) winners of the 153cm WH, ridden by Lucy Eddis.
Well done on a fantastic achievement and wishing you continued breeding success for the future.
Pictured below: Cashelbay JJ and Lucy Eddis.
Heartiest congratulations to Joe Burke on qualifying both father and son, Banks Timber and Aniar Cashel for the recent Cuddy class at Horse of the Year Show (Hoys). It's the first time that father and son of any breed have qualified for the Cuddy in-hand championship in the same year. Well done on a fantastic achievement and continued success for the future.
Three Connemara's qualified for the Cuddy in-Hand Championship L-R: Aniar Cashel, Banks Timber and Tian M'lady (pictured below). Two were also qualified in the Connemara ridden class (BanksTimber and M'lady) only one was bred in Ireland, Aniar Cashel, Banks Timber was bred in Denmark and Janine Shene's Tian M'lady was bred in the UK.

Landmarks Holds Second Round of Public Hearings for Midtown East Designations
The former Citicorp Center at 601 Lexington Avenue. Photo by Vitali Ogorodnikov
By: Evan Bindelglass 8:00 am on September 14, 2016
In May, the Landmarks Preservation Commission added seven new sites to their calendar of items under consideration for designation within the Greater East Midtown Initiative area. That brought the total number under consideration to 12. In July, public hearings were held for the previously calendared five items. On Tuesday, a hearing was held for those seven items added in May.
This is all part of the city's multi-agency effort to shape Midtown East going forward. In August, the city revealed its latest rezoning plan, as YIMBY's Rebecca Baird-Remba covered.
The LPC is tasked with preserving the area's history, as it does with the entire city. To that end, it has divided it into three eras –the pre-Grand Central Terminal era, the Grand Central Terminal City era, and the post-Grand Central Terminal era (as in post-completion of the terminal).
Unlike the hearings in July, Tuesday's seven hearings included no testimony opposing designation.

Two of the buildings that received public hearings on Tuesday are from the pre-Grand Central Terminal era. The first was the former Minnie E. Young Residence at 19 East 54th Street. The four-story structure was designed by the firm of Hiss & Weekes and built between 1899 and 1900. It was commissioned for Young, a widow of a successful banker, and reflected the upper class. It has since been converted to commercial use, with the Interaudi Bank occupying the storefront.
"The austere, granite façade of 19 East 54th Street is quite a surprise when compared with the ornate Beaux-Arts designs for which the architectural firm of Hiss & Weekes is best known, most notably the Gotham Hotel. For the widowed Minnie Young, Hiss & Weekes designed a restrained Italian Renaissance inspired town house with a central entrance, pedimented piano nobile windows, and a deep cornice. The openings in the granite facade are crisply cut and virtually devoid of applied decoration," testified Barbara Zay of the Historic Districts Council. "Completed in 1899, the house was originally occupied by Minnie Young and her sister, Joanne B. Arents, along with a significant number of servants – nine in 1900 and seven in 1910. As the neighborhood changed, the house was converted for commercial use, which explains the presence of display windows on the first floor. One notable period in its commercial life was the 1960s, when the building housed the prestigious Kenneth Beauty Salon, which counted Jacqueline Kennedy as a client. Today, the building stands as a rare reminder of East Midtown's once residential use and character, and as a fine architectural example of such. The fact of its survival and longevity in an ever-changing midtown context is reason enough to grant the building landmark status."
Andrea Goldman, of the New York Landmarks Conservancy, testified that the design was a "stylistic departure from the highly ornamental architecture of the period" and Tara Kelly, of the Municipal Art Society, testified that the design was atypical of the work of the architecture firm. "Over the years, it has housed a dressmaker, antique dealer, non-profit headquarters, and hair salon to the stars," Kelly added. "Despite the shifting tenants, the façade has remained largely intact since the initial conversion nearly a century ago."
Martin Erdmann Residence. HDC photo
Up next was the former Martin Erdmann Residence at 57 East 55th Street. It was constructed as a private residence between 1908 and 1909. Desgned by the firm Taylor & Levi, its style is English Renaissance Revival, according to the LPC, and features an all-limestone façade with Tudor-style windows. Since 1957, it has been home to the Friars Club.
"This striking town house was designed by Taylor & Levi and completed in 1908-09 for Martin Erdmann, a successful banker who commissioned the house for his early retirement when he was only in his forties. In 1910, he lived here on his own income, with no family members, but with eight servants," testified Zay. "The building is unlike any contemporary New York town house, with its gabled front, strapwork ornament and leaded windows. In 1909, an anonymous critic for the journal Architecture commented on just how unusual the façade was, noting that it was "conceived in so different a vein from most New York houses that its propriety can be questioned…but there is much in this house to awaken an intelligence lulled to sleep by monotonous repetition of classic forms."
"This is the only remaining house on what was once a residential block. It has been preserved since 1956 by The Friars Club, a club for actors. Club members refer to the building as 'The Monastery.' The club was established in 1904 and in 1911 inaugurated the Friar Frolics, for which Irving Berlin wrote 'Alexander's Ragtime Band.' The club is best known to the public for its famous Celebrity Roasts, where famous performers joke about the guest of honor. Though not being considered for landmark status today, it is worth noting that many of Erdmann's original interiors remain intact."
Goldman said it was a rare example of Jacobean style and "astonishingly intact." Kelly described the design as "quirky" and noted that the architects were responsible for over 200 works, including Hebrew University in Jerusalem.
18 East 41st Street. HDC photo
The first property heard from the Grand Central Terminal City era was 18 East 41st Street, a 21-story, neo-Gothic style office building. It was designed by George and Edward Blum and constructed between 1912 and 1914. It features tripartite façade in glazed terra cotta.
First to speak in support of designation was Ross Moskowitz, land use counsel for the building's owner, and then two more representatives of the owner, including preservation consultant Cas Stachelberg of the firm Higgins Quasebarth & Partners. They emphasized their love for the building and noted that some rehabilitation work has already been undertaken.
"In 1912, the architects George & Edward Blum received a commission for a twenty-story office building from the Holland Construction Company. Over the course of their prolific careers, the Blums created some of the most distinctive buildings in New York City, often employing a singular Arts-and-Crafts aesthetic that exploited the properties of ornamental terra cotta," testified Zay. "Although the Blums are best known for their apartment houses, they were also responsible for a significant number of commercial office and loft buildings. The East 41st Street office building is one of their most unusual, given that it was designed in the neo-Gothic style. This choice of design, as well as the use of terra-cotta cladding, was likely inspired by the Woolworth Building, which was then under construction. Like the Woolworth, 18 East 41st Street's terra-cotta is coated with a bright white glaze, with the recessed sections of the three dimensional façades highlighted with polychromy."
"However, what makes the East 41st Street building so exceptional is the quality of the ornamental detail, which combines the Blums' interest in using both organic and geometric forms. The façade is highlighted with spandrels, vertical bands, balconies and other features on which can be found twining vines with large leaves and what appear to be ripe figs ready for the picking. The Blums, who were of Alsatian descent, studied at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris and were familiar with progressive French ornamental design. They used one of their favorite French-inspired ornamental devices on this building – the naturalistic leaves that appear to lap over their frames. These organic design features are balanced on several of the Blums' most important buildings with an overlay of geometric detail. This is evident here in the square grids that appear in many locations on the façade and in the geometric grids cut into the shield designs used on the projecting window balconies. The building has sustained a few alterations over the years, including the removal of its storefront, but has undergone an exceptionally sensitive restoration. Its striking features and commanding presence make it worthy of landmark status."
Susan Tunick, the founder of Friends of Terra Cotta, as well as Goldman and Kelly, also testified in support of designation. "Representing East Midtown's early commercial history, and an unusual commission by a highly productive firm, it merits individual New York City landmark status," said Kelly.
Hampton Shops Building. HDC photo
Second in this era was the former Hampton Shops Building at 18-20 East 50th Street. The 11-story structure was built between 1915 and 1916. Its design, by Rouse & Goldstone and Joseph L. Steinman, features terra cotta that resembles granite. That was meant to complement St. Patrick's Cathedral, which sits across the street. The Hampton Shops furniture company declared bankruptcy in 1937. The building was then sub-divided and has served a variety of commercial purposes.
"The Hampton Shops Building, a well-preserved neo-Gothic skyscraper, is fully deserving of landmark status, not just on its own merits, but as a contextual backdrop for St. Patrick's Cathedral. Designed by Rouse & Goldstone, with Joseph L. Steinman, the structure is an anomaly amongst the firm's prolific catalogue in New York City. William L. Rouse and Lafayette A. Goldstone joined forces in 1909 and quickly made a name for themselves in designing grand apartment buildings. They were also known for their high level of skill at adapting Renaissance-inspired architecture to New York City's skyscraper typology," testified Zay. "Completed in 1916, the Hampton Shops Building is neither an apartment building nor a Renaissance Revival style building. For this commission, they considered the context of the new structure, directly across the street from the south façade of St. Patrick's Cathedral, and chose grey terra-cotta cladding and gracious Gothic style ornament to complement their venerable neighbor. It is worth noting that in the designation report for the individually landmarked S. Jarmulowsky Bank Building, the LPC described both that structure and the Hampton Shops Building as "unique designs" for the firm of Rouse & Goldstone. It is only fitting, then, that this building, like the Jarmulowsky Bank, be granted landmark status. With its strong verticality, pointed arches and rich ornament, the building contributes to East Midtown's history and sense of place, and should be celebrated and protected as such."
Goldman and Kelly also testified in support.
Yale Club. HDC photo
50 Vanderbilt Avenue is a 22-story building constructed for use as the Yale Club of New York City. It was built between 1913 and 1915 and designed by architect James Gamble Rogers, who designed many structures on Yale University's campus in New Haven, Conn. In fact, the club was placed on Vanderbilt Avenue because it is right across the street from Grand Central Terminal, and the New Haven Line, now part of the Metro-North Railroad.
The design is based on an Italian palazzo. When completed, it was the largest building in the world devoted to club purposes. It's still the biggest in the five boroughs.
An official representative of Yale spoke in favor of designation. So, too, did Sean Khoursandi, an alumnus who know works for the Upper West Side preservation organization Landmark West! He said the Yale Club "contains the stem sells of the modern Yale campus."
"The original Yale Club of New York City opened on Madison Square in 1897. After moving to 30 West 44th street in 1901, the Club relocated permanently to 50 Vanderbilt Avenue in 1915. At that time, the Grand Central Terminal area was fast becoming the center of civic life in New York, and it made sense for a club catering to successful businessmen to be in the heart of it," testified Zay. "Built across the street from the terminal shortly after its completion and on land owned by the New York & Harlem Railroad, the Yale Club is an important contextual component to the Grand Central area."
"The 22-story 'clubhouse,' seven bays wide along Vanderbilt and six bays deep along 44th Street, was designed by New York architect James Gamble Rogers. Rogers was known for not only revivalism but outright historicism in architecture, though he often relied on modern construction methods. The neo-classical Yale Club incorporates elements of the Italian Renaissance Revival. A massive five-story base of coursed limestone ashlar with rusticated joints supports fourteen stories of tan brick, topped by a double-height ballroom in the limestone-clad "capital," consisting of round-arched windows flanked by monumental order which appears, from the ground, to be some version of Corinthian. The deeply overhanging roof remains intact, with copper modillions and anthemia visible, a rarity in buildings of this style and period."
"In addition to this highly-visible commission, Rogers, a Yale alumnus, was responsible for extensive work at Yale's New Haven campus. In 1917, shortly after completing the Yale Club, Gamble Rogers was commissioned by the university to master plan and redesign a significant and prominent part of Yale's central campus, known as the Memorial Quadrangle, now Branford & Saybrook Colleges."
Goldman and Kelly, in supporting the designation, both spoke of a tunnel connecting the club to Grand Central, though Goldman suggested it was rumored.
400 Madison Avenue. HDC photo
The 22-story office building at 400 Madison Avenue was built between 1928 and 1929. Its neo-Gothic style design, by H. Craig Severance, features cream-colored terra cotta meant to reflect sunlight.
Constructed during the speculative building boom of the late 1920s, the 20-story office building at 400 Madison was one of several rental office buildings—in aggregate, over 3 million square feet of space—added to the particularly booming 'Grand Central Zone' in 1929 alone. It replaced two six-story apartment buildings as the neighborhood was transformed into the business center of Manhattan," testified Zay. "The unusual footprint, 188 feet long on Madison and only 44 feet deep along 47th & 48th Streets, allowed for extensive street frontage along the avenue, offering prime retail space. The second floor was originally designated for a bank, with upper floors rented out as commercial office space. A selling point of the design was that "[n]o portion of usable floor area will be more than 27 feet from a window," and that no space was wasted with light wells or rear courts, efficiencies that would not have been lost on investors or renters. All service portions of the building were located along the rear wall, away from daylight."
"The tiered upper stories of 400 Madison take advantage of the light & air zoning requirements to deploy a richly textured program of boldly geometric Gothic Revival-inspired terra cotta ornament, including crenellation, pinnacles and tracery elements topping an otherwise restrained façade. At street level, the original bronze and glass storefronts remain remarkably intact, a rarity in ever-changing Midtown. The unusual form of the building, masterfully turning an odd footprint into a selling feature based on natural light and retail frontage, coupled with the intactness of its elaborate terra-cotta decoration and street-level storefronts reflecting the boom years of the late 1920s in Midtown, qualify 400 Madison for consideration as a New York City Landmark."
"H. Craig Severance studied in France before beginning to practice architecture in New York City around 1900. After a brief stint with Carrère & Hastings, Severance established his own practice in 1907. Severance partnered with William Van Alen between 1914 and the early 1920s, before returning to his own practice. In the 1920s, Severance became one of the most successful and well-known commercial architects in New York real estate circles. Just after designing 400 Madison, the architect engaged in what many observers of the period called the "altitude race" between Severance and his former partner, Van Alen, to build the tallest building in New York. Severance's 1929 commission for 40 Wall Street was beaten out on a technicality by the spire of Van Alen's 1930 Chrysler Building before the Empire State Building overtook both in 1931."
The former Citicourp Center, 601 Lexington Avenue. HDC photo
Finally, there was the former Citicorp Center at 601 Lexington Avenue. The complex includes the 59-story, 915-foot-tall office building with the slanted roof perched above supercolumns, a six-story retail building, and St. Peter's Lutheran Church. The design was by Hugh Stubbins & Associates, with Emery Roth & Sons. Construction took place between 1973 and 1978.
A pastor from the church testified in support. Building owners usually oppose designation, in part due to the cost of maintenance. Churches are usually even more opposed. So, this support is unusual.
In her testimony, Goldman mentioned the innovative use of both double-decker elevators and a tuned mass damper. "A sloped tower standing on stilts with a sunken plaza and St. Peter's Church below, 601 Lexington Avenue is truly a landmark and deserves to be recognized as such," said Kelly.
LPC Chair Meenakshi Srinivasan noted that Boston Properties, which owns 601 Lexington Avenue, has submitted a letter of support for its designation. If designated, it would be the city's youngest landmark. A structure must be at least 30 years old to be eligible for designation.
The commissioners will issue their opinions and vote on the 12 Midtown East properties by the end of the year.

"Roma" is the top winner at the Critics' Choice Awards, winning best picture, foreign language film and a pair of individual honors for director Alfonso Cuaron.
The 24th annual ceremony held Sunday at Barker Hanger in Santa Monica, California, also split the top actress award between Glenn Close for "The Wife" and Lady Gaga for "A Star Is Born." The split win comes a week after Close won the Golden Globe Award for best actress in a film drama, an award that many expected Lady Gaga would win.
"The Americans" and "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel" tied for top television winners with three apiece. "Maisel" won the top comedy honor for the second year in a row, and series star Rachel Brosnahan also was a repeat winner for best actress in a comedy series.
"Black Panther" and "Vice" each won three awards, including a pair of acting honors for Christian Bale for his portrayal of former Vice President Dick Cheney.
The best actress prize wasn't the only award that resulted in a tie: Amy Adams and Patricia Arquette split the best actress in a limited series or movie made for television honor.
Elsie Fisher won the best new actress honor for her breakthrough role in "Eighth Grade."
The show was broadcast live on the CW network and hosted by Taye Diggs.

Guardians of the Galaxy 3 Release Date, Cast, Plot And What Are Beheaded Celestials?
Published By Kamini N

The release of the season 3 of the series is expected to happen in 2022. But there might be some delays in the production side. The previous seasons of the e series have been done in July and May. So we can expect the release of the season 3 to be there around these months. If there is some delay in any of the crews, then the statement could also be a delay.
The team that is going to be a part of the cast of Volume 3 of the series are Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Dave Batista, Vin Diesel, Bradley Cooper, Karen Gillan, Pom Klementieff, Elizabeth Debicki and Sean Gunn. With these people returning for the show we can expect to have awesomeness waiting for us.
There is no trailer till now But sooner we could expect a trailer that would make all its fans happy and be ready for the season 3.
The team has planned to have an epic conclusion for the show that started in 2014. The creator also mentioned that it would be the last one of its kind and it might be around who will be taking up the mantle.
This film is going to be the last season which is a piece of heartbreaking news for us. But we have to wait for some more time to know more about the season.

During 2002 - 2005, seriously hydrocarbon contamination in Van Phong - Ben Goi was spilled oil in 29, Janumy, 2002. Therefore, hydrocarbon concentration reached 2374 μg/1 in water. However, the residence rime of hydrocarbon from spilled oil in waters was typically about 30 days. Except for this spilled oil event, mean hydrocarbon concentration in waters of Van Phong - Ben Goi bay was 456 μg/1 and its variation ranged from 237 - 629 μg/1. It is possible to say that hydrocarbon pollution is not serious yet.
Hydrocarbon concentration in sediments ranged from 208 - 678 μg/1, mean 373 μg/1. It was highest in 2002 because of spilled oil and lowly decreased from 2003 to 2005. The residence time of hydrocarbon from spilled oil in sediments up to 2 years.

Home/Trade/Singapore prepared to strike UK trade deal
Singapore prepared to strike UK trade deal
Current AffairsOctober 24, 2018
Prime Minister of Singapore Lee Hsien Loong said his country is ready to strike a trade deal with the U.K., which would come into effect at the end of any Brexit transition period.
"We can do what the trade people call in the jargon a short-form agreement, which is basically to continue to do with Britain what we have agreed to do with the EU as if you [U.K.] were still inside it," he told BBC Radio 4s Today Program on Friday.
Lee is attending the Asia-Europe summit in Brussels Friday to sign a new Singapore-EU trade deal, which will then need to be ratified by EU countries.
He said that agreeing the terms of the EU trade deal with the U.K. is something Singapore is prepared to do. "We hope we will be able to continue arrangements with Britain, whether or not it is inside the EU … and then we have time to work some better long-term arrangements over time."
Lee said he has discussed such an arrangement with U.K. Prime Minister Theresa May, adding it would apply straight away, once the transition period ended.
"We are happy to buy your cheese," he said.
Asked about his thoughts generally on Brexit, Lee said: "From an economic point of view, its hard to make the argument that youll be in a superior position outside the EU than in, but I fully understand you have other considerations which may outweigh the economic one."
Lee also downplayed some Brexiteers view of a low-tax, low-regulation, post-Brexit "Global Britain," saying: "I dont know that its possible to model Britain on the same basis as Singapore."
