SMS is 30 years old! 30 facts about SMS through the ages
Happy birthday, SMS! This famous channel celebrated its 30th birthday on December 3rd, 2022. From messages between individuals to SMS Marketing, the channel reigns supreme in the world of telecommunications. Let's look at some fun statistics and details you might not know about; 30 years of SMS history, the channel that pioneered mobile messaging as we know it today.
30 Facts You May Not Know About SMS
The very first SMS was sent on December 3, 1992 by the British engineer Neil Papworth, from the company Vodafone.
"Merry Christmas" was the content of this very first SMS, sent from a computer to a cell phone weighing about 2 kilos.
The idea of creating a network for sending and receiving short messages between cell phones came to Matti Makkonen a few years earlier, in 1984, while he was eating pizza with his friends in Copenhagen (just goes to show that the best ideas can come from places where you least expect them!)
By the way, Matti Hakkonen never filed a patent for his idea, and therefore received no money for this invention.
At the beginning, the SMS was not intended for the general public but for the internal communication of companies.
The first text messages were free and could only be sent between people on the same network.
In 1994, the first Nokia cell phone with a T9 keyboard made SMS accessible to everyone.
Did you know that the original beep heard on Nokia phones when a message was received was actually Morse code for "SMS"?
In 1997, mobile operators offered the first SMS services for individuals.
"LOL", "brb", "A+"... Where do all these abbreviations come from? From the famous 160-character limit imposed by SMS. Keeping it short was the real challenge.
But why 160 characters? Simply because the German researcher Friedham Hillebrand wrote a series of messages on his typewriter and then counted the characters in each message. 160 turned out to be a "perfectly sufficient" length.
Who hasn't heard of the famous "Y2K bug?" It turned out to be less of a problem than imagined, but SMS did have a hard time: millions of Happy New Year SMS were sent and saturated the global network.
It wasn't until the early 2000s that "Rich SMS" appeared. But what is it? Rich SMS allows you to add a hypertext link inside your messages. A new world opened up for SMS marketing: that of mobile landing pages.
In 2001, French company SFR made the word "Text(o)" a registered trademark following its advertising "Texto, dites-le en toutes lettres, dites-le texto", which translates roughly to "Text, say it in words, say it text".
2002: welcome MMS! It's awesome to be able to share pictures of your kids, your cat, or your new car, right? It's also a great advantage for marketing and customer engagement.
The first TV contest to offer SMS voting was Eurovision in 2002
In Japan, a new literary genre was born in the early 2000s: the SMS novel. The chapters, of 160 characters maximum, arrived directly on the readers' phones. "Deep Love", the first SMS novel, sold over 6 million copies in 2003.
SMS can save lives! In 2008, British surgeon David Nott was able to perform emergency surgery in the Congo by receiving instructions from a colleague via SMS.
In 2009, the term "texting" has become widespread and has become a word in everyday language.
200,000. That's the number of SMS messages sent every second around the world in 2010. That's about 100 billion every year!
SMS is one of the most used features on smartphones
Have you ever suffered from "Blackberry Thumb"? It is an irritation of the tendons and muscles of the thumb, caused by writing SMS messages (on an old Blackberry phone). Even though Blackberry's AZERTY keyboards have been retired, this tendon problem is proof that texting has become common practice!
What time of day do we text the most? While brands are subject to certain hours for their marketing campaigns, the peak of texting between individuals takes place in the evening, between 8pm and midnight.
According to the GSMA, there are currently more than 5.4 billion people who have a mobile phone and can therefore receive SMS.
98% of SMS messages are opened.
58: the number of times a user checks his phone every day, on average. This explains the incredible open rate of SMS.
19%: the average CTR of SMS, compared to 4% for emails.
Twitter and its publications of 140 characters maximum were inspired by SMS. The goal: to be able to read tweets on all types of phones with an internet connection.
According to several studies, texting while driving is more dangerous than driving while drunk. Reading a text message increases the risk of an accident by 23 times because it forces you to take your eyes off the road for about 5 seconds. It's "Drink or drive" but we should also add " Text or drive".
34.65 seconds. this is the record for the fastest 160-character SMS written and sent by Norwegian Frode Ness in 2012. Thanks to this performance, he made it into the Guinness Book of Records.
What Does the Future Hold for SMS?
In 30 years, SMS has become an essential channel for everyone who owns a phone. In recent times, however, SMS has lost some of its power. The younger generations prefer new mobile messaging channels like WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, or Instagram to talk to their loved ones and contact brands.
But SMS still has a bright future ahead in Marketing. In France in 2021, nearly 11 billion SMS messages were sent to consumers by brands. Appointment reminders, promotional offers, authentication, contests... The use cases are numerous. Whilst being limited to "notifications" for a long time, SMS Marketing is gradually opening up to two-way "conversations" between brands and their customers.
From SMS to RCS
With the rise of mobile messaging channels, Google and the major phone operators are trying to breathe new life into native messaging applications on smartphones. RCS, a new messaging channel considered the successor to SMS, allows companies to send rich content. Images, videos, carousels... This channel offers many advantages to promote your products and encourage engagement.
Like SMS, RCS allows your customers to receive your messages from the native application on their phone. No more than 160 characters: RCS messages encourage you to be more precise in your content and give your customers the opportunity to interact with your brand. They can browse your catalogue, purchase a product or change an appointment with ease.

If this is a question that you've asked your customers at any point in the last two years then you're acutely aware of the importance of keeping your customers happy. If you haven't asked this question, then you may find some valuable nuggets of information in this article.


A few years ago, while living in Brooklyn, I started noticing an influx of graffiti style messages on the streets and in the subway system. I was intrigued by these anonymous messages, as they were not just graffiti, but communication. These messages had a purpose, some to contact a specific person, and some to communicate an idea to the public.
I wondered how many people they actually reached, and if meant for a specific person, did they ever get the message?
This entry was posted on March 27, 2011 by Amanda. It was filed under messages, Past, Typography .


My son is 14 yrs old. I've been consistently trying to encourage him to do two things. One, think ahead to the next logical outcome and, two, do it right the first time. When he helps with projects around the house, he has a tendency to get it to an "almost complete" state. For example, recently he went out and mowed the backyard. I told him beforehand to move some brush (thorny rose trimmings) that needed burning so that he could completely mow the yard. At the end of the day, he comes in with a look of victory and accomplishment and proudly states, "I'm done!" (as with all chores assigned to my children, their definition and my definition of "done" are quite different). Unbeknownst to me, my son has informed his mother that he can't move the thorny rose trimmings because he can't find his gloves (separate father/son lesson) and so therefore cannot mow that specific area and has instead opted to mow around.
Stepping into the backyard, I notice that the brush pile has not been moved, and so I asked my son why. I was immediately informed that he "told mom" and that he could not locate his gloves. I'm not sure why he thought this would be accepted. However, let's suppose that I overlook this and give him a pass because it's just too difficult a task (outside of scope) to move the brush pile right now. The next thing I notice is a bright orange 5 gallon Home Depot bucket, equipped with a handle, that was apparently too difficult to move and also required mowing around. The mentality of "something is in the way, I'll mow around it" became acceptable behavior to him, which ended up leading to the undue stress of having to put his dirty shoes back on, pulling the mower back out and finishing the work.
In my regular discussions about "being Agile" with the developers here at SmartBear and with customers when I am on the road, I often get varied and interesting thoughts on this subject.
"Being agile means there's always a second chance"
"Agile gives you freedom to be proactive and this is the topmost value"
I don't know how to make these two statements more opposite of one another. On one side of the coin is "don't worry too much about it, we'll keep iterating." On the flip side of the coin is "let's get it right the first time."
The challenge with my son's approach to chores is that he must go back a second time. This frustrates both of us. I can't understand why he doesn't do it right the first time and he can't fathom why his first attempt wasn't good enough and why I would demand more from him.
Although the sentiment that teams that embrace agile processes can iterate and get it right the second time is somewhat true, this doesn't truly align with the agile manifesto or principles. At the end of the day, not finding and putting on our gloves (implementing the appropriate process corrections early in the development cycle) to address the thorns or pick up the bucket causes undue stress downstream. I don't believe for a minute that developers are intentionally mowing around issues like my son. However, I do think that as a team (product, dev, QA) we can look at a situation and say, "we'll iterate until we get it right." Yes, this is one benefit to a continuous delivery model, but the sweet spot is in finding the right balance between quality and agility. As the principle states, "Continuous attention to technical excellence and good design enhances agility."
Technical excellence, or quality, cannot exist without the right tools and processes to foster constant communication. Communication with customers, business people, developers, QA, support, etc. ensures that we are looking for the thorns and the buckets early in the process and addressing them when we find them, ensuring quality and agility, rather than declaring too early that we are "done."

Last.FM Becomes "World's Best Jukebox": Bigger Than iTunes, All Four Majors Onboard
Web 2.0 musicmeister Last.FM and CBS's "unprecedented new service" is a leveled-up Last.fm: It is "the most complete, licensed music catalog" in the world with music from all four major labels and 150,000 indie labels, or what they're calling "the world's best jukebox." It's all available on demand (right now!) without logging in, is free (banner ad-supported) and now plays full tracks from artists you can search for directly—internet radio on 'roids, basically. But of course, there are limitations thanks to label tightassness, the biggest point of suck being that you can only listen to a song three times.
What's sort of shady is that they wouldn't discuss how they track how many times you've listened to a track, since you don't have to log in or register—probably based on your IP address, though. Of course, this intersects with advertiser interests, since they can better target ads based on your track history.
Another neat aspect of the re-launch is their artist royalty program, where unsigned artists can directly upload their music to Last.fm, and they'll get paid every time their track is played—basically pulling in the ad revenue that would've gone to a label, if they were on one.
And they're definitely not stopping with music. Asked about a "Last.tv" being in the works, Last.fm co-founder said that "music videos are the bridge into visual content."

The current study investigated preliminarily therapists' countertransference (CT) behavior and alliance quality as a function of therapist self-insight, a central CT management factor. Eight therapist-trainees were rated by a clinical supervisor on their degree of self-insight and then assigned to a high or low self-insight group. The groups were compared on therapist CT behavior, from both therapist and supervisor perspectives, and on patient-perceived alliance quality. Effect size estimates suggested that high self-insight therapists displayed more CT behaviors than low self-insight therapists (with small to medium effects), and that patients of high self-insight therapists reported higher alliance scores (with a medium effect). These findings, albeit preliminary and requiring replication with a larger sample, support the notion that self-insight plays a role in therapists' use of CT reactions in the service of effective therapeutic interventions.

Several more forceful responses to the critics of the Convention's obligatory dispute settlement provisions are in order. First, the U.S. has already accepted the Convention's dispute settlement system with respect to certain significant categories of disputes (by ratifying the 1995 Fish Stocks Agreement, which incorporates the Convention's dispute settlement provisions).54 Second, one can make a strong case that third-party dispute settlement has led to decisions that strengthen the Convention's rules and will lead to many more. For example, in its merits decision in the Saiga case, the ITLOS reinforced the concept of the EEZ as a zone of limited coastal state jurisdiction, which extends neither to customs matters nor generally to all matters affecting a coastal state's "public interest."55 Third, the U.S. itself might find the Convention's dispute settlement system useful. For instance, arbitration could be threatened or pursued in order to oppose and publicly expose other states' illegal straight baseline claims.56 The Convention's dispute settlement provisions can help prevent the compromises embodied in the Convention from unraveling.
The ISA, the institutional component that led the Reagan administration not to support the Convention in 1982, has remained a obstacle for a few vocal critics of the Convention in America. Although the ISA is the only new body created by the Convention that is explicitly authorized to make policy, its mandate is narrow, related to steps furthering security of tenure for those seeking to explore for minerals or mine on the seabed beyond the limits of national jurisdiction. The Part XI Implementation Agreement, which is now read together with the Convention to govern the ISA's operations, rectified all of the Reagan administration's objections to the original Part XI (the administration's only objections to the Convention). The objectionable provisions related to an asserted lack of guaranteed access for qualified private miners, the possibility of payments to national liberation movements, mandatory technology transfers, production limita- tions, and a review conference that could amend Part XI over the objection of the U.S. or other states. The George W. Bush administration has emphasized the 1994 changes with respect to these provisions. It has also emphasized 1994 changes concerning the U.S. role in how the ISA makes its decisions, changes that give the U.S. an effective veto over ISA decisions. Since its inception, the ISA has operated on a low budget and has confined its activities to its specified mandate, behavior that should reassure skeptics who fear an expensive, bloated international bureaucracy.

Ашитковы (в старину также писались Ошитковы) — старинный русский дворянский род.

Согласно древним летописным свидетельствам, дворянский род этой фамилии ведёт своё происхождение от участника Смоленского похода 1634 года, Фёдора Яковлевича Ашиткова, сын которого Никифор Фёдорович был в 1670 году вёрстан поместным окладом и стал, таким образом, родоначальником дворян Ашитковых.

Потомство Никифора Фёдоровича Ашиткова было записано Губернским дворянским депутатским собранием в VI часть дворянской родословной книги Костромской губернии Российской империи и утверждено Герольдией Правительствующего Сената в древнем дворянстве.

Описание герба
Щит, разделённый надвое, имеет вершину малую голубого цвета с изображением в оной трёх серебряных шестиугольных звёзд, а нижнюю половину пространную, в которой в правом чёрном и в левом красном крестообразно положены серебряные сабля, ружьё и золотое копьё.

Щит увенчан дворянским шлемом с дворянскою на нём короною и тремя страусовыми перьями. Намёт на щите красный и голубой, подложенный серебром. Герб этого дворянского рода был записан в Часть VI Общего гербовника дворянских родов Всероссийской империи, страница 115.

After many weeks abroad, I'm back in the United States, and by coincidence this weekend I watched a movie that reminded me of just what it means to be home. The reminder came in the unexpected form of Deanna Durbin, the girl-next-door Hollywood star of the 1930s and 1940s. I didn't anticipate that her last film, the romantic comedy For the Love of Mary (1948), would have so much to say about the culture of American constitutional law.
As readers of this blog and subscribers to my Facebook page know, in mid-November I flew to Europe to speak about The Rule of the Clan (which will be released in just two months by Farrar, Straus and Giroux), to teach some intensive seminars about the American constitution to European students, and most of all to begin research on my next book.
In the spirit of Jules Verne, the working title of Book #4 is Around the World in Eighty Laws. I'm hoping to reveal some of the beauty, complexity, and fragility of our world through a portrait of its diverse legal systems. I want to show the fundamentally different ways people understand the meaning and purpose of law. I'm also hoping that in the process I'll be able to raise some basic, hard questions about our ability to get along with one another and with other nations as we respond to globalization.
My travels began at Erasmus University in Rotterdam and ended in Vienna. In between, with Eurail Pass in hand, I visited Maastricht, Tilburg, Luxembourg, Brussels, Würzburg, Hannover, and Salzburg, taking pictures and conducting interviews as I went—trying to channel the spirit of one of my heroes, David Attenborough. It was grand. I also found that I could easily continue an itinerant life indefinitely.
I'll be posting reflections on my travels and excerpts from my interviews in the coming weeks, especially once I return to my desk in Connecticut.

Walden, a game for educators
What is Walden, a game?
Walden, a game is a first person exploratory game about the life of American philosopher Henry David Thoreau during his experiment in self-reliant living at Walden Pond. The game begins in the summer of 1845 when Thoreau moved to the Pond and built his cabin there.
Players follow in his footsteps, surviving in the woods by finding food and fuel and maintaining their shelter and clothing. At the same time, players are surrounded by the beauty of the woods and the Pond, which hold a promise of a sublime life beyond these basic needs. The game follows the loose narrative of Thoreau's first year in the woods, with each season holding its own challenges for survival and possibilities for inspiration. The game offers more opportunities for reflective play than strategic challenge. In homage to the original text, the piece has a subtle narrative arc. Rather than an adventure of the body pitted against nature, students can experience the mind and soul living in nature over the course of a New England year.

The loser who never gave up!
When he was a little boy his uncle called him "Sparky", after a comic-strip horse named Spark Plug. School was all but impossible for Sparky.
He failed every subject in the eighth grade. He flunked physics in high school, getting a grade of zero. He also flunked Latin, algebra and English. And his record in sports wasn't any better. Though he did manage to make the school's golf team, he promptly lost the only important match of the season. Oh, there was a consolation match; he lost that too.
Throughout his youth, Sparky was awkward socially. It wasn't that the other students disliked him; it's just that no one really cared all that much. In fact, Sparky was astonished if a classmate ever said hello to him outside of school hours. There's no way to tell how he might have done at dating. He never once asked a girl out in high school. He was too afraid of being turned down… or perhaps laughed at. Sparky was a loser. He, his classmates… everyone knew it. So he learned to live with it. He made up his mind early that if things were meant to work out, they would. Otherwise he would content himself with what appeared to be his inevitable mediocrity.
One thing WAS important to Sparky, however — drawing. He was proud of his artwork. No one else appreciated it. But that didn't seem to matter to him. In his senior year of high school, he submitted some cartoons to the the yearbook. The editors rejected the concept. Despite this brush-off, Sparky was convinced of his ability. He even decided to become an artist.
So, after completing high school, Sparky wrote Walt Disney Studios. They asked for samples of his artwork. Despite careful preparation, it too was rejected. One more confirmation that he was a loser.
But Sparky still didn't give up. Instead, he decided to tell his own life's story in cartoons. The main character would be a little boy who symbolized the perpetual loser and chronic underachiever. You know him well. Because Sparky's cartoon character went on to become a cultural phenomenon of sorts. People readily identified with this "lovable loser." He reminded people of the painful and embarrassing moments from their own past, of their pain and their shared humanity. The character soon became famous worldwide: "Charlie Brown." And Sparky, the boy whose many failures never kept him from trying, whose work was rejected again and again,… is the highly successful cartoonist Charles Schultz. His cartoon strip, "Peanuts," continues to inspire books, T-shirts and Christmas specials, reminding us, as someone once commented, that life somehow finds a way for all of us, even the losers.
Sparky's story reminds us of a very important principle in life. We all face difficulty and discouragement from time to time. We also have a choice in how we handle it. If we're persistent, if we hold fast to our faith, if we continue to develop the unique talents God has given us, who knows what can happen? We may end up with an insight and an ability to inspire that comes only through hardship. In the end, there are no "losers" with God. Some winners just take longer to develop!
Peanuts is a syndicated daily and Sunday American comic strip written and illustrated by Charles M. Schulz, which ran from October 2, 1950, to February 13, 2000, continuing in reruns afterward.
The strip is the most popular and influential in the history of the comic strip, with 17,897 strips published in all, making it "arguably the longest story ever told by one human being", according to Robert Thompson of Syracuse University. At its peak, Peanuts ran in over 2,600 newspapers, with a readership of 355 million in 75 countries, and was translated into 21 languages.

MLB Network's Jon Heyman reported Monday that the New York Mets are expected to pursue Los Angeles Angels starting pitcher/designated hitter Shohei Ohtani in 2023 should he enter free agency. The 28-year-old phenom would be in high demand given his elite hitting and pitching talent. Ohtani slashed .273/.356/.519 with 34 home runs, 95 RBI, and 11 stolen bases in 666 plate appearances in 2022 while also going 15-9 with a 2.33 ERA, 1.01 WHIP, and 33.2% strikeout rate in 28 starts. While the Mets and owner Steve Cohen have been one of baseball's spendiest teams of late, Cohen said of potentially going after Ohtani, "Hard to think about next year. I'm focused on this season." Ohtani will remain a top fantasy asset wherever he goes, but a move to the Mets would be a clear upgrade over his current team.
Mike Trout Says His Back Is A "Non-Issue"
Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout (back) said his back has been a "non-issue" for the last four months and it hasn't factored into his offseason much at all. That's excellent news for the Angels and fantasy managers as we approach the start of spring training. The 31-year-old played in only 119 games last season due to a condition called costovertebral dysfunction, which could be a long-term issue for him. The good news is that he was able to return to finish the 2022 campaign and hit .283/.369/.630 with a .999 OPS, 40 home runs, 80 RBI, 85 runs scored and one stolen base when it was all said and done. As long as he's healthy heading into the 2023 season, Trout will be a costly fantasy selection, but he now has much more risk than ever before if his back injury resurfaces.
Padres Could Be "All In" On Shohei Ohtani In 2023 Offseason
USA Today's Bob Nightengale reported Monday that the San Diego Padres are planning to be "all in" on starting pitcher/designated hitter Shohei Ohtani if he becomes a free agent in the 2023 offseason. The 28-year-old phenom has one year left on his contract with the Los Angeles Angels, so he could potentially be traded this season or sign a contract extension with the Angels. If he does become a free agent, there will likely be high competition to sign him given his elite hitting and pitching talent. Ohtani slashed .273/.356/.519 with 34 home runs, 95 RBI, and 11 stolen bases in 666 plate appearances in 2022 while also going 15-9 with a 2.33 ERA, 1.01 WHIP, and 33.2% strikeout rate in 28 starts. The Padres would be even more formidable if they were to sign him.
Jared Walsh, Angels Avoid Arbitration
The Los Angeles Angels and first baseman Jared Walsh (shoulder) avoided salary arbitration after inking a one-year, $2.65 million deal. Walsh was sidelined for the last month of the season after undergoing a thoracic outlet surgery. He is expected to be ready for the 2023 season and shouldn't miss any time. Across 454 plate appearances, the 29-year-old posted a .215/.269/.374 slash line with 44 RBI and 15 HRs. His .642 OPS was nothing close to what he displayed in the two previous years, but his health certainly impeded his success. If the first baseman can stay healthy in 2023, the Angels are hoping that Walsh can tap into his raw power that was on display in 2021 when he hit 29 homers.
Angels, Taylor Ward Avoid Salary Arbitration
The Los Angeles Angels and outfielder Taylor Ward avoided salary arbitration on Friday by coming to an agreement on a one-year, $2.75 million deal. Ward had a .281/.360/.473 slash line with career-highs in OPS (.833), home runs (23), RBI (65), runs scored (73), stolen bases (five) and games played (135) for the Halos in 2022 in his fifth major-league season. The 29-year-old didn't hit quite as well after returning from several different injuries during the year, but he was one of a few bright spots for the Angels. With better health in 2023, Ward could be a fantasy steal.

How is that war in Iran treating you? Was Harry Reid raising his hand for Iraq or Iran?
On the Today Show Wednesday, Matt Lauer asked what the president can say to a struggling member of the middle class who he didn't deliver any hope and change to. White House policy chief David Plouffe says, Hey, we ended the Iraq war! What did they do to end the Iraq war?
The former Bush strategist Matthew Dowd says Republicans have made three blunders in reacting to events over the past three weeks with regard to Wall Street, the withdrawal from Iraq , and Libya.


Just a few hours ago, Brian Jonestown Massacre frontman Anton Newcombe took to Twitter to claim that Apple was playing dirty. He said that Apple had threatened to remove his music from iTunes if he didn't agree to stream it for three months royalty-free over its new Music subscription service.
Newcombe tweeted: "So @APPLEOFFICIAL has a new deal they offered me: they said we want to stream your music free for 3 months.. I said what if I say no, and they said "we'll take your music off itunes."
His rant about Apple's alleged behaviour continued: "The biggest company on earth wants to use my work to make money for 3 months and pay me nothing - [if] I say no, I'm banned". TechRadar is continuing to investigate these claims.
Apple's stance on Music, as it tells TechRadar, is that artists are free to choose whether to offer their music on the new subscription service or sell it on iTunes.
Furthermore, Eddy Cue, Apple's senior vice president of Internet Software and Service. told The Sunday Times last week: "We're not telling customers that want to buy that they're doing the wrong thing, just like we're not telling artists that want to make their music available for sale that it's a bad thing."
Spotify guarantees that 70% of post-tax income goes to the artists and labels, while Apple says it will go slightly higher and offer up 71.5% in the US, and an average of 73% outside of America. That's still not as high as Tidal's 75%, mind.
However, it's that three-month free period that is going to mean a financial sacrifice for artists and labels who will make zero royalties - and Widcombe isn't the only one to raise issue with it.
This week the Beggars Group, a British record company that owns or distributes music for indie labels including XL Recordings, Rough Trade, 4AD and Matador released a statement regarding stalled negotiations with Apple.
"We have recently been in discussions with Apple Music about proposed terms for their new service. In many ways the deal structure is very progressive, but unfortunately it was created without reference to us, or as far as we know any independents, and as such unsurprisingly presents problems for us, and for our coming artist releases.
"We are naturally very concerned, especially for artists releasing new albums in the next three months, that all streaming on the new service will be unremunerated until the end of September."
French indie music trade group UPFI has also rallied against Apple Music in an open letter to Cupertino executives.
A translated version of the letter reads: "Unfortunately, the speed with which Apple has announced the launch of this new service and the lack of consultation from the independent sector regarding contractual terms that are proposed or imposed on them, gives the feeling that Apple intends to impose its terms without the possibility of real negotiations prior. This attitude is clearly likely to have serious adverse consequences for our members in the short term.
"The most damaging decision for music producers is that of imposing a total lack of compensation for labels for a period of 3 months, corresponding to a gratuity offered to customers of Apple Music."


Few American novels written this century have endured in th heart and mind as has this one-Ray Bradbury's incomparable masterwork of the dark fantastic. A carnival rolls in sometime after the midnight hour on a chill Midwestern October eve, ushering in Halloween a week before its time. A calliope's shrill siren song beckons to all with a seductive promise of dreams and youth regained. In this season of dying, Cooger & Dark's Pandemonium Shadow Show has come to Green Town, Illinois, to destroy every life touched by its strange and sinister mystery. And two inquisitive boys standing precariously on the brink of adulthood will soon discover the secret of the satanic raree-show's smoke, mazes, and mirrors, as they learn all too well the heavy cost of wishes — and the stuff of nightmare.
Call me weird, call me freak, but I found the Carnival so enticing, so hailing. Youth. Eternal. Wicked. Just few spins at the caroussel.
But again... no.... Life and living have their own gain. Death doesn't matter. What happen before it is the really important part.


Kentucky's education chief wants the names of Jefferson County Public Schools teachers who have participated in the massive "sickouts" that have shut down the district on six occasions, according to email correspondence obtained by the Courier Journal.
Education Commissioner Wayne Lewis on Thursday sent JCPS Superintendent Marty Pollio an email requesting the names of all teachers that called in sick on dates during which sickouts took place, beginning with the first on Feb. 28.
"At this point, my intention is to collect information to make sure state laws have been and are continuing to be upheld," Lewis told the Courier Journal. "I have no other purposes beyond that right now."
A spokeswoman for JCPS confirmed that Pollio received the email but did not answer whether the district would comply with Lewis' request.
"We just received the email this afternoon and we are reviewing it," she said.
Lewis' request included "any and all affidavits or certificates of a reputable physician stating that the employee was ill or caring for an ill family member on the day(s) the employee called in sick," as described under a statute governing teachers' absences.
JCPS was closed Thursday for the sixth time in three weeks due to a sickout.
Superintendents from Bath, Boyd, Bullitt, Carter, Fayette, Letcher, Marion, Madison and Oldham counties received similar requests, Lewis said.
"We've got a number of districts where there have been work stoppages and one district where there's been six," he said. "And that's really concerning, not just to me, but concerning for parents and concerning for kids."
Lewis made the request, according to a press release from the education department, based on state statute granting him the authority to access records of teachers and public school officials in order to report misconduct to the Kentucky Board of Education.
"Based on that request and the authorities given to the commissioner, that certainly suggest he may be considering pursuing discipline on individuals involved," Jefferson County Teachers Association Brent McKim said.
McKim said JCTA would provide legal representation to any union member facing discipline and encouraged members to contact his office if they find themselves in that position.
The union has not advocated for the sickouts and warned its members that they could be terminated if they falsely called in sick.
Just Wednesday night, JCTA sent an email with such a warning to a group of its members.
The email, marked for "internal JCTA use only," was sent to educators that have been elected to represent the union at each public school in Jefferson County.
The email included legal advice from the Kentucky Education Association, including an example of when a teacher who was terminated after falsely using a sick day lost an appeal in the Kentucky Supreme Court.
Questioned whether the memo resulted in diminished teacher turnout at the Capitol on Thursday, McKim said, "that may be the case."
"The numbers were certainly noticeably lower today, but I can't say for sure what the cause is."

Acute Superior Mesenteric Vein Thrombosis With Small Intestinal Ischemia
Acute superior mesenteric vein thrombosis results in sudden interruption of blood supply to a segment of small intestine leading to ischemia followed by intestinal infarction and necrosis of that segment. Immediate systemic anticoagulation and early surgical intervention are required to remove the infracted segment of bowel to prevent sepsis and death. The mesenteric ischemia due to thrombosis of superior mesenteric vein is a rare condition of the intestine, however intestinal infarction associated with it is even more uncommon. Systemic hypercoagulable state is usually present in most of these patients. I, report a case of 43 years old Caucasian male who presented to the emergency room with severe diffuse upper abdominal and back pains out of proportion of his abdominal findings associated with nausea and vomiting. Past history of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) of lower extremity in the patient and his sister was documented. Computed tomography of abdomen with intravenous contrast revealed superior mesenteric vein thrombosis and extension of thrombus into portal vein along with its segmental branches resulting in ischemia of distal small bowel. The patient was initially treated with systemic anticoagulation but due to lack of response to conservative management for 12 h the patient was taken to operating room and underwent resection of about 2 feet of ischemic distal small bowel with good post operative recovery. Acute superior mesenteric vein thrombosis associated with mesenteric ischemia requires prompt diagnosis, urgent medical and early surgical intervention to prevent sepsis, high morbidity and mortality.

Harry says Mail on Sunday underplayed gravity of false claim as libel case settled
Duke settles libel case with paper and Mail Online over stories about his relationship with armed forces
The Duke of Sussex has accused the Mail on Sunday and Mail Online of underplaying the seriousness of an error in a story about his relationship to the British armed forces as the two sides formally settled a high court libel claim.
Harry had sued Associated Newspapers over two articles published in October, which claimed he had snubbed the Royal Marines and "not been in touch … since his last appearance as an honorary marine in March", citing "informed sources".

Bryce Cartwright and wife Shanelle have welcomed their second child.
NOT many NRL stars can claim to have the experts skill of a gynaecologist or a midwife.
Yet Titans forward Bryce Cartwright has miraculously helped his wife safely give birth to their second child in the bathtub of their Gold Coast home.
Shanelle Cartwright was due to give birth last week but her waters broke early, she went into labour And then nature took its course.
With Bryce at her side she gave birth to a girl they have named Naia Eden Cartwright.
It is the Cartwrights' second child.
The couple travelled to hospital after the emergency birth on Monday and Shanelle and little Naia were given a clean bill of health. They returned home the next day.
"It was extremely stressful and unexpected but they both handled it brilliantly," a family friend said.
"Welcome to the wild my little lady."
One teammate quipped: "We're just hoping he catches the footy this year as well as caught the bub."
Shanelle created a storm recently when she spoke out on social media against child immunisation.
"I'll home school before I vaccinate," she said, sparking a huge backlash from medical professionals.
Cartwright declined to comment when contacted by The Sunday Telegraph.
"No story thanks," he said.
"We're just keeping it between family and friends."

Açık Radyo (Open Radio 95.0) is an independent radio station broadcasting from Istanbul to metropolitan Istanbul and surrounding areas. The station's format includes news, music and talk radio.

Structure
Açık Radyo first began broadcasting November 13, 1995. It is a regional radio station, founded as a private company (as required by Turkish law) but functioning similarly to a nonprofit organization. It has 92 partners, holding near-equal shares. By 2009, Açık Radyo had worked with 935 individuals on more than 822 talk and music shows. All of Açık Radyo's presenters and producers are volunteers except morning show program. Nearly 200 presenters contribute to 134 different programs broadcast on Açık Radyo each week. The radio station has hosted more than 14,000 guests in its 14 years of broadcasting.

Açık Radyo, with other stations (including Radio Nova Paris and RBB Multikulti Berlin), carried out a collaborative program of research and technological development on world music and the internet. It has also been carrying out program exchanges with four European radio stations: RBB Multikulti Berlin, VDR Funkhaus, Radio Sweden P6, Europa Köln and Radio Bremen. It also airs world-music programs prepared by three 13-year-old presenters for the nonprofit children's radio station, Radijojo.

Media coverage
Açık Radyo's programs and activities have been reported in more than 6,000 articles, including nearly 120 interviews and broadcasts. It has been the subject of two documentaries.

Online presence
The Açık Radyo website was launched in early 1997; in May 2000, the station began broadcasting online. A second (subscription) website, named the "Açık ("open") Site", was launched in late 2001; transcripts from interviews and talk shows are posted. In December 2004, Açık Site's subscription system was eliminated and the two websites were combined. As of 2009, an average of 50,000 people visited the website each month.

Documentaries
In 1996, Açık Radyo acted as a semi-official radio station for the UN HABITAT (II) Conference held in Istanbul, broadcasting bilingually for fifteen days. Since its second year of operation (1996) the station has presented a two-hour yearly wrap-up program, "Last Year in Perspective", on December 31 each year. In 2005, Açık Radyo produced (in cooperation with Radio Nederland) a two-hour program commemorating the 50th anniversary of the Russell-Einstein Manifesto against nuclear arms. In May 2008, sound collages commemorating the 40th anniversary of the 1968 revolution were broadcast daily.

Music festivals and exhibitions
In 1997 and 1998, in collaboration with Positive Organization, Açık Radyo organized the two Istanbul Musical Festivals. Ten thousand people attended each radio festival; the programs featured an eclectic range of music and 125 activities, including activities for children, international panels, world-premiere performances and dance workshops.

Açık Radyo co-sponsored two photography exhibitions: "1968 Through the Lens of Magnum" in 1968 and "Portraits of the 20th Century" in 2000. Each exhibition drew an audience of about 8,000. In 2006, Açık Radyo organized a fundraiser entitled "NaturMort" ("Still Life") to draw attention to global climate change. Six art galleries and 83 artists contributed, donating their proceeds to the station.

Conferences and panels
Açık Radyo organizes five conferences annually. Over 50 conferences have been held at universities and cultural centers, including panels by Açık Radyo editors and programmers on such topics as broadcasting, independent media, freedom of the press, global climate change, globalization and the history of music.

Open-space project
In fall 2005, a group of students from İstanbul Bilgi University created a programing contest enabling young people to express themselves through alternative media. This was Açık Radyo's first programming contest for university students ("Change the world, even if it's for an hour a week"), followed by a second contest (entitled "Let's Play!") the following year. Sixty-four young people from eighteen universities participated with forty-seven projects. Winning projects were aired on Açık Radyo for six months.

Listener-supported projects
An opinion poll conducted  by AC Nielsen in 2000 showed that Açik Radyo's "core listeners" (those who listen every day) numbered around 45,000; those who listened every other day, 80,000; once a week, 120,000; the number of people who listened at least once during the last three months is around 200,000. According to polls conducted by the Istanbul Foundation of Culture and Arts (IKSV) in 2001 and 2003, among music listeners and film-goers at the International Festivals of Classical Music, Jazz, and the Istanbul International Film Festival Açik Radyo was chosen as the most popular radio station.

In early March 2004 a fundraising project, "Açik Radyo is seeking its listeners", was begun to augment the efforts of the 92 founders and 650 volunteer presenters with contributions from listeners to attain a level of "sustainable independence." With the addition of funds raised from a few thousand "listener-sponsors" to income from advertisements and sponsorship, Açik Radyo hoped to reach a level of permanent financial sustainability.

During a year-long campaign, listeners were asked to sponsor one (or more) programs. At the end of 2004, the number of sponsors totaled 2,250. The second campaign, in 2005, yielded a similar number of individual sponsors. Every year, Açik Radio announces its listener-support project with a one-week radio festival featuring guests and special shows. In March 2006, the third listener-support campaign lasted 99 hours over nine days. One hundred old (and new) presenters came together in panel programmes to discuss the last ten years of culture and music broadcasting of Açik Radio and around the world.

A fourth project, "Altogether with Açik Radyo", was held between 24 February and 4 March 2007. During these nine days, nearly forty "regular" listeners participated in programs. At the end of the ninth day, the number of individual sponsors reached 3,000. The fifth special project, "Altogether With Açik Radyo, Forever!," featured celebrity presenters and articles from the soon-to-be published Open Book (the Açik Radyo encyclopedia) were incorporated into programmes by their authors. In March 2009 the sixth listener-support drive was held over nine days, with the majority of listeners renewing their support. At the end of this drive, the number of individual sponsors at Açik Radyo reached 4,500.

Açık Radyo received 38 awards in Turkey between November 1996 and October 2007. Among them are:
 2008 – Izmir International Fair Award, for its campaign against global warming
 2007 – Public Service Award from Istanbul branch of Ankara University Political Science graduate faculty

Q: Gazebo shows more robots than robot launched number Every-time I launch Gazebo, there is a default turtlebot that always appears in the simulation although I don't launch him.
There is a black robot (called mobile_base), it appeared although I didn't launch it).
To simplify the problem, even when I am loading just gazebo empty world without my robots, this default robot (mobile_base) appears in the simulation.
Do you have an idea how can I remove this default robot from Gazebo simulation? Thank you!
EDIT: solved by launching different world, that doesn't contain a default turtlebot.

I am looking for a tutor for my grandson who attends Bedford High School. He is failing Algebra 2, and Chemistry. I am looking for someone who can tutor him 3 days / week to start, and then maybe 2 days per week if his grades start improving. I would like to find someone who can tutor at the Bedford High School Library if that is possible. He has a managed time from 9:55am to 10:55am and he is also free after 2:35pm.

Crowe portrays the D.C. reporter who untangles a mystery of murder and collusion that connects unexpectedly to an unflappable young politician (Ben Affleck) who is the future of his political party. As the investigation continues, it reveals a cover-up that threatens to shake the nation's power structures to their very core.

Where does this data come from
Weather data for Awali was collected from the MERRA-2 project from NASA, which used a climate model combined with historical data from weather stations around the world to estimate what the conditions were like for every point on the Earth.
For all data based on historical data, we've averaged the data from the past 11 years (2010-2020). For example, for the hourly temperature at 10am, we've looked at the temperature at 10am on every day in November (e.g., November 1, November 2, etc. in 2010, 2011, etc.) and took the arithmetic mean. We did not smooth the data, so for example, our daily temperature line will have some randomness due to the fact that weather is random in the first place.

Nice post for getting people started. If you wanted to follow up you could consider talking about smartphone, tablet and desktop based Twitter clients with lists, multiple account and muting functionality. I know quite a few people follow me for my teaching stuff, but I often tweet about what's on TV, politics (oops, broke one of the rules mentioned above), or general nonsense. Different clients have different options for filtering things out.
As I said, nice post. I often have quite a bit of trouble convincing people that Twitter is worthwhile (as well as my PLN, it's also my primary source of political news), but you sum up some of the big points quite nicely.
Thanks for this Kelly – I'm feeling inspired 🙂 You should present a workshop on this!
