US 'concerned' about Iranian threats to Saudi Arabia
"We are concerned about the threat picture and we remain in constant contact through military and intelligence channels with the Saudis," the US National Security Council said in a statement.
The United States is concerned about threats from Iran against Saudi Arabia and will not hesitate to respond if necessary, a White House spokesman said on Tuesday.
The heightened concerns about a potential attack on Saudi Arabia come as the Biden administration is criticising Tehran for its crackdown on widespread protests and condemning it for sending hundreds of drones, as well as technical support, to Russia for use in its war in Ukraine.
Saudi Arabia did not immediately respond to requests for comment, nor did Iran's mission to the United Nations.
One of the officials who confirmed the intelligence sharing described it as a credible threat of an attack "soon or within 48 hours." No US embassy nor consulate in the region has issued alerts or guidance to Americans in Saudi Arabia or elsewhere in the Middle East based on the intelligence.
US State Department spokesman Ned Price said America was "concerned about the threat picture," without elaborating.
The Wall Street Journal first reported on the Saudis sharing the intelligence earlier on Tuesday. Iran has alleged, without providing any evidence, that Saudi Arabia and other rivals are fomenting the dissent on its streets by ordinary Iranians.

Because he would be so irritated. Because he might be charmed. Because the synesthetic imagery of his poems lend themselves so singularly to the conjoined media of scrolled paintings unfurling to music. Live music, it is important to add. There is a touch of vaudeville and cabaret in Baudelaire. He tended to go big or go home. Home to his mother.
Because he invented the term "modernity" and even now no one quite knows what it means. Because he wrote a poetry of immersion perfectly suited to the transience and Now-ness of song and of the Ever-Moving scroll. Because we never had a proper goth phase. Sex and death! For all these reasons, and for the true one that remains just out of our grasp.

Councillors fund project to boost mental health
On 19th March 2021 19th March 2021 By peterlongden
St Anthony's ward councillors are supporting low-cost counselling for local people on restricted incomes and a pilot support group for young people to improve mental health.
They approved £3,000 towards the project – which is being delivered by not-for-profit company, The Old Bank Wellbeing Trust – through the council's Devolved Budget scheme in February.
The support group for young people in years 10 and 11 will focus on managing anxiety and is led by a counsellor experienced in youth work.
In addition, a scheme to provide sports sessions at the Archery Recreation Ground for people who are less active or feel restricted in their ability has been given £1,000. Provided by Defiant Sports, the programme will start with football sessions for SEND (special education needs and disabilities) children and their friends or siblings.
A further £850 has been approved to expand the YMCA youth club at Langney Village Hall and provide new equipment such as a folding pool table and music facilities.
And just over £1,000 has been provided to buy a fridge for the new volunteer-run Langney Larder that gives out free food that would otherwise be sent for waste.
In Hampden Park, ward councillors agreed £890 last month to help young people, in particular, access counselling and wellbeing services for support during the pandemic.
Meanwhile, Old Town councillors granted £450 for replanting in Pashley Infant's School outdoor learning area where diseased trees have been removed.
Ocklynge Junior School was awarded £850 towards its well-established learning programme that reaches out to vulnerable children through the care of small animals such as rabbits.

Raheem Sterling's teammate Eric Dier has lauded him for his focus and attitude after negative coverage in sections of the British media ahead of and during the World Cup.
Sterling received criticism prior to the World Cup when a British tabloid targeted him for having a gun tattooed on his leg. The Manchester City star provided an explanation soon after, saying it was a tribute to his father who was murdered when Sterling was just two years old, but the scrutiny continued. Sterling has found his performances being placed under the microscope arguably more than any other England player by certain publications.
Dier feels Sterling's handling of the whole situation has been nothing short of "incredible", before going on to laud his team-mate's World Cup performances.
"First of all, the way Raheem handled everything has been incredible," Dier told reporters. "The way he goes about his job has been fantastic, his attitude, work ethic, both fantastic as well.

From the N.C. Dept. of Agriculture and Consumer Services, released March 28:
Truth delivered daily
RALEIGH — The N.C. Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services is offering grants to fund new projects to enhance the competitiveness of specialty crops in the marketplace.
The Specialty Crop Block Grant Program is managed by NCDA&CS and funded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture under the 2008 farm bill. Last year, NCDA&CS awarded more than $1 million to 22 projects that benefited North Carolina's specialty crops industry and helped local farmers grow more profitable crops.
NCDA&CS will accept grant applications starting at $10,000 from non-profit organizations and corporations, commodity associations, state and local government agencies, colleges and universities. Applicants must reside in North Carolina, or their business or educational affiliation must be within the state. The application deadline is 5 p.m., May 20.
'This competitive-grant program is designed to help small farmers and local food efforts,' Agriculture Commissioner Steve Troxler said. 'Nearly $1.2 million is available this year from USDA to support the North Carolina specialty crop industry.'
Projects involving the following specialty crops are eligible: fruits, vegetables, tree nuts, dried fruits, horticulture, Christmas trees, turfgrass/sod, and nursery and greenhouse crops. Funding is also available for projects aimed at developing local and regional food systems and improving food access.
Grants are not available for projects that directly benefit or provide a profit to a single organization, institution or individual.
For grant guidelines and an application, visit www.NCspecialtycropgrant.org. Questions may be directed to Jeff Camden, NCDA&CS marketing specialist, at (919) 707-3111, SpecialtyCropGrant@ncagr.gov, or Specialty Crop Block Grant Program, 1020 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, N.C., 27699-1020.

George Will: When party establishments mattered
PVCS
Months before the 1940 Republican convention nominated Wendell Willkie, Alice Roosevelt Longworth, Theodore Roosevelt's waspish daughter, said that Willkie's support sprang 'from the grass roots of a thousand country clubs.' There actually was a Republican establishment in 1940, when GOP elites created a nominee ex nihilo.
According to Charles Peters' book 'Five Days in Philadelphia,' three months before the convention, Willkie registered zero percent in polls measuring public sentiment about potential Republican nominees. This was not surprising: He was a businessman — president of Commonwealth & Southern Corp., the nation's largest electric utility holding company — who had given substantial support to Franklin Roosevelt in 1932. Willkie had never sought public office and had not registered as a Republican until late 1939 or early 1940.
And he was not an isolationist regarding European events. Eighty percent of Americans were more or less isolationist, as were the three strongest Republican candidates — Ohio Sen. Robert Taft, Michigan Sen. Arthur Vandenberg and New York prosecutor Thomas Dewey, just 38 but favored by 60 percent in early 1940 polls. Herbert Hoover hoped a deadlocked convention would turn to him.
The Republicans' 'Eastern establishment,' however, was interventionist to the extent of favoring aid to Britain. The adjective 'Eastern' was superfluous: Two-thirds of Americans lived east of the Mississippi and the South was solidly Democratic.
The Republican establishment had power and the will to exercise it. As the convention drew near, 'Willkie Clubs' suddenly sprouted like dandelions, but not spontaneously.
One of the few politicians among Willkie's early backers was Sam Pryor, Republican national committeeman, whom the candidate met at the Greenwich Country Club, naturally. Willkie's top adviser was Russell Davenport, managing editor of Henry Luce's Fortune magazine, which together with Time and Life made Luce, an ardent interventionist, a mass media power unlike anyone before or since.
On April 9, Dewey won a second of the few primaries — and Hitler invaded Norway and Denmark, with Belgium, Holland and France soon to follow. Willkie said he would vote for FDR over a Republican opposed to aiding Britain and France.
Willkie, 'the barefoot boy from Wall Street,' cultivated an Indiana aura, but had become a Manhattan fixture, and by 1937 his criticism of the New Deal had Fortune applauding his 'presidential stature.' Between May 8 and June 21, Willkie's support rose from 3 percent to 29 percent.
Willkie also was lucky: In May, the Taft man in charge of tickets had a stroke and was replaced by a Willkie man who would pack the gallery with raucous Willkie supporters, including a Yale law student named Gerald Ford. Tens of thousands of pro-Willkie telegrams inundated delegates in one day. Delegates heard from their hometown bankers, who had heard pro-Willkie instructions from New York bankers. He won on the sixth ballot.
Willkie's nomination neutralized much Republican opposition to FDR's war preparations and was crucial to the narrow congressional approval of conscription. Willkie lost the election, but the coming war would be won. Time was, party establishments had their uses.

Air Conditioner Companies Profit During this Hot Summer
COLUMBIA - Even though the weather has cooled down slightly from the 100 degree weather we had in late June and early July, air conditioner companies are profiting from this hot summer.
Phil Figueiredo manages the company for Chapman Heating and Air Conditioning in Columbia. He could not be more excited about the heat and how it has helped the company earn more money. The recent temperatures have caused a higher demand for his services.
"We have not seen that much of a demand in awhile. Our service guys are working hard to keep up," said Figueiredo.
On average, the typical technician at Chapman is working 10 to 15 percent more. The more they work, the more the company and the people who work on air conditioners earn.
Matt Dye is one of the technicians that works on the air conditioners. He said that he works two hours more per day and could work more if he wanted to.
"I get up go to work around eight. Before this heat wave, I worked till 4:30 but now I am out working in the sun until 6:30," said Dye.
Dye said that even though it's not pleasant to work in the heat, he welcomes the work and is happy to help people in the area.
"I spend so much time outside, that it does suck. And if I am working on someone's air conditioner, chances are I can't come in and take a break. But I welcome additional work," said Dye.
Chapman has been able to service people within a day or two but may have to hire more people to keep up with demand along with current employees working extra.
Figueiredo said the most common repairs can be prevented. He offers these following tips to keep your air conditioning working and save you money in the long run.
1. Change your air filter. Dirty air filters can cause dust and debris that should should not be floating around you system.
2. Have someone come perform a yearly maintenance and inspection on the system. This can prevent a lot of problems and detect problems before they become more costly.
3. Clean out the external part of your air conditioner. Spray it down to get bugs and yard waste out of the intake area.
4. If your air conditioner breaks, schedule an appointment immediately and keep all blinds down to keep out heat.
5. It is better to leave your air conditioner on all of the time rather than shutting it off while you are gone. Shutting it off makes your house warm up. When you turn the air back on, it has to work extra hard to cool off the house and can cause mechanical stress overtime.
Tiffany Nelson recently moved into a new place. She discovered her air conditioner was broken. She said she did not have to wait long for the repair but that it was still miserable in the extreme heat.
"The heat was unbearable. It was too hot to sleep, too hot to do anything, and the air conditioner was broken. It cost a bit to fix but luckily my land lord took care of that, said Nelson.
Even though Nelson does not wish for any more extremely hot weather this summer, Figueirido hopes that July and August will bring the warmer temps for his business.

There is a new hope for cancer patients as an engineered virus can target cancer cells when injected into the blood. The virus only attacks the tumour without affecting the healthy tissues of the body.
Using virus to treat cancer is not new as many doctors inject the virus directly into the tumour to treat the patient. This virus only attacks the cancer without affecting the immune system of the patient. This new study shows promise as the virus is injected directly into the blood and it does not affect the immune system. Since it is injected into the blood it can help in treating multiple organs that have been affected by cancer.
Researchers have modified the vaccinia virus which is being used to develop vaccine for smallpox. This virus is dependent upon the chemical pathway that is common in certain cancer cells in order to replicate their path.
Professor John Bell, from the University of Ottawa and lead said that he was very excited because it is the first time that viral therapy is showing signs of attacking cancer cells after it was injected in humans.
However, the virus cannot cure cancer but only prevent further growth of cancer. Since the research was conducted to test the safety of the virus, the patients were given only one dose.
Most experts believe that the research is still in its early stages and it will take a few years before this treatment is commercially launched in the market. However, these experts are of the view that this research can change are approach and method of treating cancer.

Alexander Jennings Albrecht (born August 14, 1976) is an American television personality, actor and podcaster. He is known for co-hosting the former G4techTV television program The Screen Savers, an hour-long computer and technology variety show, as well as the weekly podcast Diggnation and the weekday podcast The Totally Rad Show on the Revision3 network. On July 15, 2008, he released his new podcast/website Project Lore, all about World of Warcraft. Albrecht has expressed a penchant for dressing up as characters from Street Fighter, most recently appearing as Guile. He is the Head of Original Programming at Caffeine.

Early life
Albrecht is the son of Dr. Mark Albrecht, former President of ILS, and Kathe Hicks Albrecht, past president and director of the Visual Resources Association, curator at American University in Washington, DC. Alex went to elementary school at Burgundy Farm Country Day School, and graduated from American University with a degree in computer science. He was a member of the Delta Chi fraternity. While at college Albrecht was a male cheerleader, with ambitions of becoming a professional mascot.

Career
Albrecht worked for the RAND Corporation as a programmer and IT person and later worked for the Science Applications International Corporation developing multimedia programming for BP.

In 2001, he founded the improv-comedy troupe The Misfit Toys, which performed live in L.A. until 2003.

Albrecht appeared as a contestant on the gameshow Russian Roulette in 2002. He also appeared on Beat the Geeks.

Albrecht was hired by G4techTV to be the co-host alongside Kevin Rose (replacing Patrick Norton) of the television technology show, The Screen Savers, for the first G4techTV episode airing from Los Angeles. The first Los Angeles-based episode of The Screen Savers aired on September 7, 2004.

On November 11, 2004, Albrecht announced on his personal blogs that G4 had decided to revamp The Screen Savers by making it more pop culture, Internet, and gaming-oriented. Alex Albrecht, Yoshi DeHerrera, Dan Huard, executive producer Paul Block, and the show's entire staff (consisting mostly of former TechTV employees) either resigned, made separation deals with G4, or were officially terminated.

On August 5, 2005, Albrecht joined Revision3. Albrecht co-hosted Diggnation, a video podcast that summarizes a selection of the top stories submitted by Digg users, with former The Screen Savers co-host Kevin Rose. Albrecht also contributes to other projects for the company. He co-hosts a podcast called The Totally Rad Show, with Dan Trachtenberg and Jeff Cannata. The first episode was released on March 27, 2007. Albrecht also hosted Ctrl+Alt+Chicken, a weekly cooking show that lasted 8 episodes before being canceled in the fall of 2006.

Albrecht was featured in "SWGack", a weekly podcast on the popular MMORPG, Star Wars Galaxies. On March 4, 2006, he and Joshua Brentano announced on their last episode that they would discontinue the podcast due to disenchantment with the game itself.

Albrecht and Rose also appeared in a Super Bowl ad for GoDaddy.com during Super Bowl XLI. Albrecht has appeared in a Domino's Pizza commercial eating Domino's pizza in a house being raided by the "flavor" police. Alex has also appeared in a Dell commercial, advertising the line of High-Definition Dell LCD televisions; Alex has stated that this commercial was ad libbed. He has also mentioned doing an audition for an advertisement for McDonald's that was never aired in the US, but he has said that it was for British television.

On December 4, 2007, Alex guest hosted Attack of the Show (the show which succeeded his old show on G4, The Screen Savers).

Alex's next project was Project Lore, which launched Tuesday, June 17, 2008. Project Lore is all about the popular video game World of Warcraft. On the show, Alex and friends have shown off all of the five main dungeons available in the game's first expansion pack, The Burning Crusade, starting with the lower levels, and working up. Before World of Warcraft'''s second expansion pack, Wrath of the Lich King was released, the Project Lore team were allowed to showcase some of its new beta content. Project Lore has since been abandoned; there have not been any blog posts for some time and a potential revamp proved too costly and the Project has been turned over into the hands of the volunteer bloggers in hopes that they will continue on their own.

Alex revealed on Totally Rad Show that he was in the pipeline to host NBC's version of Top Gear but the role was ultimately given to somebody else.

In 2009, Alex started an iPhone app company called App Dragon which released one app later that year called Duel.

In March 2010, Alex flew with the U.S. Navy Flight Demonstration Squadron (Blue Angels) in the back seat of Blue Angel #7 (frequently used for media and public relations flights).

In July, 2010, Alex seeks funding for the short film "Neverland" through Indiegogo, in which Alex was named as a director. According to Alex's Twitter account, shooting started July 30, 2010.

He is part of the long form improvisational comedy group Hammer Don't Hurt 'Em, which uses the clap-in format created by director, Stan Wells.

Albrecht has also guest-starred in season 3, episode 4 of an Internet-based live-action parody of The Legend of Zelda called The Legend of Neil. Albrecht's character "Todd" was a member of a small group of soldiers from the elven army, which was led by Zelda's brother Tyrelda. In the series, Zelda is, much to Link/Neil's surprise, black skinned, rather than white. Her brother Tyrelda and the rest of the elf troops are black as well and make constant reference to Alex Albrecht's character being the token white guy. A number of stereotypes associated with African-Americans in the real world are reverse-applied to Todd and the white elf race in the land of Highrule. By the end of the episode, Todd appears to have died along with Tyrelda and the rest of the gang, making for a short-lived but noteworthy contribution made by Alex to the series.

In May 2012, a new show was released on the Nerdist YouTube Channel called 4 Points with Alex Albrecht. The show features 4 people discussing 4 different topics. Albrecht and co-host Alison Haislip are the only permanent members of the panel, with the other spots filled by a personality from some other Nerdist show and a celebrity, usually from TV or movies.

In April 2015, Alex and Alison Haislip started a new podcast called the Half Hour Happy Hour. He left the show in December 2018 and was replaced by Maude Garrett.

He resides in Brentwood, a suburb of Los Angeles, California.

Review of "Georgia Under Water"
By Heather Sellers
Sarabande Books, 2001
Review by Christian Perring, Ph.D. on Jun 13th 2002
Georgia Under Water is a set of stories about a girl, her younger brother and her warring parents, through her teen years. The early chapters are rich with emotional chaos and Georgia's growing sexuality; her relationship with her irresponsible father is especially troubling as she yearns for his approval. Heather Sellers manages to capture a sense of crisis and sensuality in her increasingly fragmented narrative, but as a novel, this book is hard work for the reader. Her style is rather studied, and given the sense that she has attended too many writers' workshops. For example, here's a paragraph describing herself as a young teen:
My knees weren't knobs any more. My knees were lush transitions. My thighs shone golden-brown; my shins, paler, but long and strong. My ankles were slim, bony in a fetching way, my feet suddenly inches too long for my slaps and sandals. My hair swing in a shiny curtain behind me; my legs were in constant motion, counterpoint.
So parts of the book are compelling, especially those that confront Georgia's sexuality and her relationship to the men in her life, but as a whole, it is far less successful. It's hard to pin down exactly what spoils the promise in the writing, but I suspect it's something to do with the fragmentary nature of the collection of stories, and the lack of development of the relationship with her mother. I get the sense that Sellers talents are more suited to short stories than they are to the longer form novel.

Expert warns small minority being irresponsible could lead to surge as Govt begs people to 'get off the streets'
"The responsibility will be more now on the public."
Michael HayesJournalist

Public health expert Ruairi Brugha has warned that it would only take a minority of people behaving irresponsibly for a surge in cases in Covid-19 around the country.
The Head of Public Health and Epidemiology at the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland (RCSI) was speaking on RTE's Morning Ireland today, and said: "We can only move into this next phase if people actually take responsibility for how they engage or relax in behaviour, whether they're going back to work, whether their children are going to school.
"It isn't enough to have four-fifths of us actually taking this seriously."
He also added that alcohol could be a factor in people relaxing their precautions in the weeks ahead.
"It only takes a small number of people to behave in a way, in a celebratory way, we know that we Irish when we get the opportunity, want to be convivial and we do it around alcohol and we've seen the big increase in alcohol sales, it only takes 2% or 3% of us to behave in a really irresponsible way and this virus will jump up again.
"And it'll be a matter of when it happens, I think it's going to be very difficult to put a halt to the relaxing measures, put a halt on the economic measures."

Professor Brugha said the public must "double down" on social distancing measures to keep the virus at bay, and to stay vigilant about symptoms.
He said: "Some people think 'we're going back to normal'. No, we're not going back to normal in terms of hygiene and physical distancing.
"The vaccine, it's a probability eventually, we don't know what that eventually is going to be.
"I do think there will be other measures that may come in.
"We are looking at the long haul, we are looking at into 2021, gradually relaxing measures, monitoring them very carefully."
Meanwhile, the Department of the Taoiseach revealed new evidence this morning that people are ignoring 'stay at home' messages in their droves, with Dublin Bus saying they have seen an increase in passenger numbers this week.
Assistant Secretary at the Department of the Taoiseach, Liz Canavan, said at the Government's daily coronavirus briefing this morning that movement is now "certainly a cause for concern" after reviewing more official evidence.
She said: "Car traffic is but just one indicator of activity levels…… I have more information today.
"Dublin Bus notified us yesterday that there has been an increase in passenger numbers day on day this week and that all levels are above those seen the previous week.
"They are engaging with the National Transport Authority trying to pinpoint more information for us."

Surprise! (partially lost "Sesame Street" segment; 1970)
Screenshot from Sesamstraße.
Status: Partially Lost
"Surprise!" was a Sesame Street song, written by Jeffrey Moss, that originally aired during Sesame Street "Episode 218" (during the second season), on March 10th, 1971. It was originally sung by a band of Anything Muppet hippies that would evolve into Little Jerry and the Monotones. It talks about the good and bad parts of surprises and how people respond to them. The song appeared in as late as Season 8 (1976), but so far, no one has come forward with a VHS recording of the clip, since VHS tapes were not for home use at the time and VHS recording devices were very expensive.
Song[edit | edit source]
Throughout the song, various characters appear during the sketch in cutaways demonstrating surprises, including Oscar surprising Susan with a snake in a can; Herbert Birdsfoot in a room surprised by Roosevelt Franklin, Roosevelt Franklin's Mother, Herry, Cookie Monster, Prairie Dawn, and Grover; and Herry sneaking up on Bert. After the many clips of various surprises, the backup singers eventually give the lead singer their own surprise for him at the end of the song.
Back in 2006, the German dub of the full song, uncut, was uploaded, along with many other German-dubbed clips of the 1969-1971 seasons of Sesame Street taken from Sesamstraße (the German co-production of Sesame Street) that have once been posted on YouTube by a German user. But the user had been a victim of the February 2007 Viacom incident, which targeted and took down more than 400,000 YouTubers. The German-dubbed clips, including "Surprise!," have not resurfaced since.
A YouTube user named Clausule uploaded the Dutch dub (which lacked Susan and Oscar's cutaway) in 2007, but his account was suspended in 2009. Clausule returned as user MNAvdb and reuploaded some Sesame Street clips, but for some reason, he did not re-upload the "Surprise!" song in Dutch. The song then resurfaced in Hebrew in a Rechov Sumsum episode the same year in 2009, but that video got taken down in 2011. YouTube user Bahgwan uploaded the song with the source deriving from the Dutch dub but edited with audio taken from the Sesame Street "Surprise!" album and was not full, but that video got taken down in 2014.
YouTube user BOF178 used video sources from Bhagwan's edit of the song to dub with incomplete low-quality audio in Mexican-Spanish from Plaza Sésamo, but the video and audio were not matched right, plus the video had a BOF178-labeled watermark slapped onto the screen that persists through the whole video. The Plaza Sésamo dub, uploaded by BOF178, was the only video of the song to have still lasted on YouTube today, as all the other uploads of the song were deleted off of YouTube.
A 2-hour video "lange sesamstraße nacht" was uploaded to YouTube around February 2017, and another YouTuber named PumpkinJFriend ripped a clip of Surprise (w/bits of Susan and Oscar's cutaway and Herry and Bert's cutaway)] that was on the video and spliced it into the middle of BOF178's video (dubbed with the audio from the Surprise! album) to make a longer version of the video.
According to a user on the MuppetCentral forums,[1] the cut-up Hebrew dub of the clip that featured Herry Monster and Bert's cutaway is "long gone" from YouTube, and the only version that still stays up is the fan cut that tried to sync the album version to that footage. The Hebrew-dubbed clip remained lost until YouTube user Rohail Hashmi has re-uploaded a copy of the extended version in Hebrew (despite it having been downloaded in awful quality). It does not include Susan and Oscar's cutaway and has been audio-synced from the Dutch video source.
On December 25th, 2017, YouTube user Star Dragon Dust updated his recreation of the song, this time as an almost-complete clip, with a few English audio pieces taken from the album version and video sources taken from the Hebrew dub as well as the German clips.
On February 8th, 2018, YouTube user JFriendsFan96 uploaded another more complete recreation of the song. It combines English audio from the album release, with the splicing of the German and Hebrew dubbed clips and some pieces of Bhagwam's video.
In February 2019, it was announced that over 4,500 episodes of Sesame Street over its 49 seasons would be archived in the American Archive of Public Broadcasting. It's likely that the full version of "Surprise!" will be included among the episodes being archived, but this has not been confirmed directly.[2]

Those who are already vulnerable to family violence are spending increased time at home, away from any support from their colleagues, friends and the community.
In China, incidents of family violence tripled in the month of February during the lockdown. In Australia, there has been an increase in the number of google searches looking for support services.
Below is an outline of some of the avenues still available to victims in Western Australia, during the COVID 19 pandemic:
The Courts are still operating, whether it is via telephone, in-person or video conference. If you are a victim of family violence, we urge you to speak with one of our lawyers who is very experienced in this area. Our lawyers can help you to apply for a Family Violence Restraining Order, which can protect you and your children and place restrictions on the perpetrator of family violence.
The Government has announced that they will be allocating $150 million to the national domestic violence initiative.
Most services are still operating during the pandemic, with many solely ensuring social distancing measures are in place, such as conducting most appointments by telephone. Some of the support services currently available are:
The Department of Communities Women's helpline. This is a 24-hour service providing support and counselling for women in WA experiencing family and domestic violence;
Centrecare, which offers individual, couples or family counselling services;
1800 RESPECT Counselling service, which is a 24-hour helpline for people in urgent need of help; and
The 1800 RESPECT Daisy app, which is an application to help you to find domestic violence services in your area.
One of the fears when leaving an abusive relationship is having no accommodation. This fear may be heightened during this time because the country is in lockdown.
In order to combat homelessness during the pandemic, the Government has commenced a one-month trial of the 'Hotels With Heart' programme. Twenty homeless people will be housed at the Pan Pacific Hotel in Perth. If successful, this programme will expand and be available to victims of domestic violence.
We want you to know that, even in this time of global crisis, help is available. Please be proactive in asking for it. Our team of experienced and compassionate lawyers can support you to do this.

Juhani Henrik Lagerspetz, född 12 juli 1959 i Åbo, är en finländsk pianist.

Lagerspetz studerade först för Matti Haapasalo vid Åbo konservatorium och därpå för Eero Heinonen dels privat, dels 1975–1977 vid Sibelius-Akademin. År 1975 segrade han i Ilmari Hannikainen-tävlingen för unga pianister, 1976 vann han delat första pris i Maj Lind-tävlingen. Lagerspetz studerade 1977–1979 vid konservatoriet i Leningrad, och 1982 fick han ett specialpris i Internationella Tjajkovskijtävlingen i Moskva. Sedan 1983 är han lektor vid Sibelius-Akademin.

Lagerspetz, som tillägnat sig de bästa sidorna av den ryska pianistskolan, har en osedvanligt omfattande repertoar, vars tyngdpunkt är pianokonserter av Maurice Ravel, Johannes Brahms, Sergej Rachmaninov, Dmitrij Sjostakovitj, Uuno Klami och Selim Palmgren. Som kammarmusiker och ackompanjatör är han mycket eftersökt; hans förmåga att spela a prima vista är legendarisk. Hans skivinspelningar omfattar bland annat  Edvard Griegs samtliga pianoverk och Brahms cellosonater tillsammans med Truls Mørk.

A: When an object is copied to the coprocessor, only the memory of that element itself, which is of type A. std::vector allocates a separate block of memory to store its elements. Copying over the std::vector embedded within A does not copy over its elements. I would recommend against trying to use std::vector directly. You can copy its elements, but not the vector itself.

Oh-ho-kayyy Mr. Kim, big words. Let's see what you've got, then.
What is it, man? BiBiGo is a fast food restaurant (and for now, a pilot testbed of sorts, in Gwanghwamun and Mapo-dong) focusing on bibimbap. Surrounding that, the company has thrown out a lot of terms to describe it. The sign out front says, "Bibigo Hot Stone," and the inside signage says, "Korean Healthy Fresh Kitchen." I'm sure the rest of the copy slightly differs elsewhere, but I don't remember what it is. Needless to say, it's something to do with fast, bibimbap, rice, Korean, healthy, or fast rice.
Okay, so it makes a ton of sense to us locals who are numb to Engrish, but probably not as apparent to anyone else.
And what it is, at least on the first floor, is Korean fast food. Your dish can be ordered and ready to eat within a minute or two. And food, yeah I guess it is food. That's why we're here.
The ordering process seems simple. The menu and ordering flow have been lifted from Chipotle. You start at a glass-partitioned counter that houses a hot/cold line, manned by two or three people. You order one of three basic form factors: Bibimbap, Dolsot Bibimbap or "Bibigo Rice"–essentially Bibimbap that you don't bibyuh (mix), which seems a little silly, but whatever. Just like Chipotle, you choose your dish then choose from a number of carbs–white rice, brown rice, black rice or barley. Then they add namul and then your choice of protein (beef bulgogi, grilled chicken breast or tofu).
Choose from one of their three pre-packaged 40g sauce packets, from "Kohot" + a small packet of sesame oil (essentially a bibimjang, or gochujang, to those less serious about bibimbap) to Citron (that's yuzu, to foodie types) and soy-based sauces.
One thing that is confusing–their namul section on the line (the cold bar, after dishing up the grain) is filled with 9 or 12 veggie varieties, some which look pretty tasty. Yet while I believe Koreans are able to customize their own bowls, the staff do not go out of their way to offer foreigners a choice of their six namul toppings. And describing them in English would be beyond their means, as well as mine. They've got some blanched cucumbers in there (oi saengchae), some garlic stems (maneul jjong), some doraji, shiraegi, cham namul reconstituted from dehydrated state, some shredded romaine lettuce, sauteed Shiitake mushrooms (pyogo beoseot bokkeum?), some mung bean sprout namul (not to be confused with the more commonly used kongnamul soy bean sprouts) and a fairly conventional spinach namul.
It's a fairly simple dish that is unfortunately one of the hardest to describe with any clarity in English.
You may add some additional hot and cold Korean food plates, mysteriously called "Korean Tapas," including bulgogi, japchae, mandu (three pieces of fried dumplings for W6,000). You can chose drinks from a chilled cabinet by the door that houses Vitamin Waters, Perrier, Coke, Dr. Pepper and some Japanese bottled teas, at prices one expects for those beverages anywhere else–about W2-3,000 each.
On the second floor, there is full-service restaurant that has more on the 'Korean Tapas' menu, serves some alcohol and offers the bibimbap as a "bansang," which is jeongsik–a full special platter with more accoutrements than the bibimbap + small bowl of kimchi + bean sprout broth. And that, too, is just as it is described. It's a full service version of the same thing with a proper waiter to take your order of what the plebes downstairs are having to order for themselves.
Fast/Slow? Cheap(er?)/Expensive? They're vying for two concepts here in the same space.
So how did it fare, the fare?
I have tried both the downstairs "fast" version and the upstairs "full service" versions on several occasions. As many people will be quick to point out, there are no eggs in this bibimbap, and everything has a definite "health" and "natural" bent here. On the first floor, Bibigo Rice and Bibimbap are W7,500, and Dolsot Bibimbap is W8,000. Sides are Nabak Kimchi and a Kongnamul-guk that is fairly tasteless. If you get the second floor's Bibimbap Bansang you get the aforementioned with an additional two small sides that are fairly insignificant and, I imagine, are rotated periodically, and a smartly-wrapped small parcel of ssam greens with a little ssamjang paste (and you know, if anybody is listening, this as a business concept on its own has legs). In place of Kongnamul-guk in the Bansang, you get a clam-based Doenjang-guk (soybean paste soup) with a little more to it than the typical Korean fast food joint doenjang-guk from a water decanter.
To add this stuff, it's W13,000 for the Bibimbap Bansang upstairs.
Taste is… well, I'll be honest here, it's not offensive, and the food tastes fresh, but it's bland. As it were, bibimbap is a fairly healthy dish already, is it not? Well, they probably have made it a bit healthier here somehow, if by way of eliminating the egg. But if you've eaten enough bibimbap in your lifetime I think that you'd find it a little boring. A monk may find it spicy and exciting, but this reviewer thinks it needs a bit of kick. The "Kohot" sauce (presumably an obvious portmanteau of either "Korean" or "Kochujang" and "hot") comes in a generous, fairly hefty 40g packet with the additional sesame seed oil, but it's either been toned down to very mild levels or is just not enough in volume for me to really get my Bibigo well-slathered with a bit of spice. I suspect it's the former as this place has those aspirational aims of becoming global–and you know, nobody in other countries eats spicy food.
The "Korean Tapas" (I'm cringing here) were flat out bad. Just as with the Kohot sauce, authentic Korean flavors have given way to extremely diluted sauces and marinades. The "Silver Noodles" (W11,000) is a plate of japchae dangmyeon noodles, some green and red pepper strings, and two roughly trimmed stalks of grilled asparagus, which were a little too proudly placed to be merely a garnish. But the japchae is missing the tasty sweet soy sauce and scallion-based yangnyeomjang sauce that makes japchae, well, japchae. It was just noodles with some peppers and two asparagus stalks. If anyone has W11,000 burning a hole in their pocket, they can go to down to Bibigo and see if I'm not lying.
Other "Korean Tapas" dishes were similarly underwhelming, and frankly, at W18,000 for 250g (that's about a half pound uncooked weight) of bulgogi, or W6,000 for exactly three tofu and chive mandu dumplings, I can see some people even getting at least a little frustrated at the prices here. That's Korean people and the foreigners they hope to attract, alike. It's too expensive… for too little food… that doesn't even taste like much.
Okay, so that would be enough of a review for most places, and if it were a small one-off mom-and-pop joint, I'd give them a little credit for something. But then again, most small restaurants aren't bankrolled by a chaebol mega-conglomerate as an experiment, and they don't fill their "Coming Soon" window signs with words like "Global Korean Food Culture Project #1" or run through a laundry list of fashionable world cities, like New York, London, Paris, Singapore. That's pretty glamorous sounding for a restaurant specializing in a rice and vegetable dish traditionally made from leftover bits and pieces in your fridge. I mean, this is highly aspirational stuff, and Korea is the land of high aspirations these days. We know now that the food is pretty "diet" and hits pretty weakly. Does it have what it takes to make it elsewhere?
For such a simple idea as fast bibimbap, Bibigo is clearly a product of too many chefs and a case of corporate stone soup. It seems like a project that they brought into the office one morning and let everyone chip in their ideas–and they actually used them. Presumably the whole project was wrapped up after a keyword brainstorming session about an hour before lunch, while everyone was hungry.
This is not a restaurant made by people who love food or care to know more about it. This is a restaurant made as a side project by a huge company with bottomless pockets and a bunch of salaried people who were probably well pleased with themselves when they got to pitch words "Ko-hot," "Korean Tapas," "Well-BING," "hot stone," "Thin Thin Squash"* (?), "Silver Noodles" (aka Japchae), "White Fish Carpaccio" (highly aspirational stuff, like I said) and the list goes on. One look at the menu, and you can see they're throwing punches every which way and not landing any of them.
That look at the menu will also tell you that for a so-called "Global Korean Food Culture Project #1," nobody really cared to put anything into sensical English. Whoever was signing off on this stuff probably cared very little. While I am aware that CJ ran some focus groups with local ESL teachers and the like, asking their opinions, it's probably clear that they ignored everything that they paid for in those marketing research sessions (and I've worked in Korean marketing research before, and can paint a pretty clear picture of all of this in my head, sadly).
Do they really think non-aficionados of Korean food will have any clue what this stuff is?
And really, that is just downright insulting. It reeks of traditional and misguided stereotypes Koreans have of foreigners eating their food, from 40 years ago or more, and that just isn't the same now. All of those calculated bulgogi+japchae+rice+kimchi "welcome" dinners I was served by well-meaning Korean hosts years ago came with good intentions, but they were a little old fashioned.
Don't dumb down your food. Be inventive. Improve. But taking what exists then taking some away because you haven't even bothered to learn your market without adding anything more, that is some weak sauce, literally. If anything, CJ should be taking hints from contemporary people like David Chang (Momofuku) or Roy Choi (Kogi and Chego). In the case of the latter, he's not making his food milder. He's making serrano pepper gochujang. And both serve up cheaper food than Bibigo. Let's see, do you want David Chang's $20 daily prix fixe at the Ssäm bar, or do you want W30,000 worth of Bibigo?
As always, Koreans have no concept of the word "vegetarian" as it is known in the Western world. With Bibigo, they're 98% of the way there. Unfortunately, they're falling on their faces about two feet from the finish line. Nabak kimchi in place of garden-variety baechu kimchi (which features a seafood component for fermentation). Tofu as a prominent protein choice. We're full-on vegan at this point. Among Asian foods, that is truly amazing. But then things lose their way. The Doenjang-guk gets a clam broth, the Kongnammul-guk may get a slight meat flavoring. We have no assurance, if any, whether the sauteed namul has been sauteed in meat stock, as it can be. The "Kohot sauce" even mentions on the packet label that it was made in a processing factory that also handles meat, seafood and gluten products, but this is only written in Korean. So, overall, huge missed point there, and that could have been a huge one for them.
As bad as "Korean Tapas" is, you could maybe describe bibimbap to the uninitiated as being a "Korean rice salad." In terms of how people eat overseas now, that wouldn't be far off. Nobody wants to pay $20-25 for that, and that's about what I paid last night–for two bowls of bibimbap and two Japanese-branded teas.
I realize food prices are going up globally, but Bibigo is not sophisticated nor is it hearty and satisfying to anyone but a 100-pound Asian girl. So it's going to find a hard time fitting in when they move abroad. I'll pay a thousand bucks for a dinner for two if the cooking was up to it, but I honestly feel really insulted to have to carry my own $10 tray of rice and pseudo-wild veggie bowl and have to find an empty table in a busy restaurant, to be greeted by the water/soup girl, and not leave the restaurant feeling satisfied. To get full American family restaurant-style on Bibigo food I think you could breach $50 for one or two people easily. That doesn't sound like fast food. You can get Michelin-starred lunches in other global cities for that much.
I'm not sure how CJ Foodville will be able to address things like having one or a small number of restaurants in these global cities and be able to bring Korean-specific groceries to the table. Things like garlic stems are regarded as early-summer/late spring seasonal things in America. Fresh doraji isn't widely grown. In America, the land of waxy year-round produce, surely an undertaking like this can't be cheap, can it?
If there were any real positives to add here, I could say the restaurant is clean, and service and product are fairly tight and consistent, albeit confusing. On the first floor, you have people on the dining room floor to bring you your hot soup separately after finding your own seat. You get water glasses and ice for beverages brought to you separately, as well as flatware. It's half serviced and half not. It's awkward, to say the least. A few of the staff seem a little lost and wandering. This is a Korean fast food restaurant, after all.
Decor is fairly normal, but in my opinion, not attractive. Decorations consist of swathing the entire place in laser-cut Korean lattice on satin birch, some small colored boards in a soft Korean palette, like pictures on a display runner (yes, I'm serious, go check it out). And then there are the "design points" on the far wall–three huge wall-sized prints of stylized vegetables, bearing down on you as you eat, in this temple of veggies.
Yes, it's clean, but really, shouldn't this restaurant be clean? I'm glad that they're not out on the sidewalk washing cabbage in a huge trough with a garden hose and then laying them out to dry on the same sidewalk or parking lot. But you know, come on, these are the basics, and they've got plenty of money while charging plenty of it. It's just as basic as using English/foreign language copy that reads well enough for people in these various countries CJ aspires to do business in.
If you put a hygienic restaurant in an office-heavy neighborhood in Seoul, promote "health," be new to the market and have something that can resemble a meal for between W5,000 to W10,000 in Korea, you will automatically be full of customers for lunch and dinner, 75% of whom are Korean women who are in that category of 100-pound Asian girls who get full off an approximately 400g bowl of rice and tiny vegetables with trace protein. It makes Bibigo look like a success, which it is to an extent–in the two stores it has in Korea. But the person who did not have the foresight to see that it's not going to be this way in the western countries that Bibigo wants to expand to made a pretty lazy mistake. The whole thing is like going to an ice breaker party and only talking to the few people you already knew.
The world is good and ready for a "Global Korean food culture project," but not in this way. Not with Bibigo.
* Yeah, this is on the menu. It's actually a sweet rice flour (mochiko, foodies) and Kabocha squash jeon pancake.
Drew is a designer and has been living in Korea on and off (mostly on) for the past 10 years. He lives in Seoul with his beagle and spends far too much on food and drinks.
There is also a lot of confusion out there about its American location. The new official Bibigo opened on September 6th in Los Angeles. A "Sobahn Express" had opened at an H-Mart food court in Irvine California, changed its name to "Bibigo," then changed it back to Sobahn. There are some positive reviews of the place, but a good many "blah" reviews stick out along the lines of it being bland and pricey for what you get. And this concept of having diners carry heavy sizzling and boiling stone bowls is inviting good ole American lawsuits. I'm sure McDonald's is facepalming itself, careful not to spill coffee in its lap.
There are also some restaurants in the U.S. that already do the Chipotle-as-Bibimbap concept with positive buzz, such as Rice Bar in D.C. and b-bap in New York.
My photos are way better… hahaha.
