The desire to retreat to warmer climates is all too common among winter travelers, but avoiding the cold may cause you to miss out on some of the most authentic and festive events in the country. Cold-climate cities don't shut down in the winter months, but instead make the most of the season with ice sculpture festivals, dogsled races, and full-blown carnivals. What's more, winter travel tends to be less expensive than travel during any other time of year (unless you're heading to a ski resort).
From Alaska all the way to New England, you can find winter festivities across the entire country that don't avoid the cold, but rather embrace the snow, ice, and frosty landscape.

Attracting more than 350,000 visitors to the Twin Cities, the St. Paul Winter Carnival is the nation's biggest cold-weather festival. It is also the oldest, having begun in 1886 as a way to stick it to a New York reporter who had called the area "another Siberia, unfit for human habitation in the winter." Even though the festival isn't explicitly related to Mardi Gras, it does include some elements that elicit the New Orleans festival, such as royal families and even a Winter Carnival krewe.
The festival takes place from January 28 to February 7, 2021, although some events have been scaled back. Two carnival highlights—the Ice Carving and Snow Sculpture competitions—have been combined into a drive-through event for attendees to enjoy the creations from their own vehicles. The ice fishing tournament now takes place throughout the entire festival for participants to compete individually, and a city-wide scavenger hunt is perfect for families to get out and explore St. Paul without crowds.

Taking place annually since 1897, the Saranac Lake Winter Festival in Upstate New York bills itself as the oldest festival of its kind in the Eastern United States. The cornerstone of this event in the Adirondacks is the Ice Palace, a giant castle constructed each year out of blocks of ice carved from Pontiac Bay. A parade, winter games, and the crowning of Ice Palace "royalty" are all a part of the activities. The final event of the 10-day festival is the "Storming of the Palace," which concludes with a massive firework display over the lake.
The fitting theme for the 2021 festival is "Mask-erade," and takes place from February 5–14. Most of the usual festivities are canceled, but you can still join for the opening and closing ceremony fireworks and take a tour of the famed Ice Palace.
Dartmouth Winter Carnival

Famously referred to as a "30-ring circus" in a 1955 profile in Sports Illustrated, the Dartmouth Winter Carnival is one of the most famous of its kind in New England. Organized by and for the students of Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire, the winter festival features ski races, sleigh rides, human dogsled races, polar swims, and ice skating fueled by musical performances and plenty of libations.
The extended festival for 2021 takes place from February 5–21, in order to space out events and allow for more social distancing. While the festival is generally open to the entire Hanover community, all on-campus events for the 2021 festival are limited to Dartmouth students only in order to minimize attendance.
Steamboat Springs Winter Carnival
In 1914, 29 years after settlers founded Steamboat Springs, Colorado, the residents gathered the second week of February to alleviate cabin fever. One of the most popular winter carnivals in Colorado, the Steamboat Springs Winter Carnival takes place downtown and features a parade, food and craft vendors, and the country's only marching band that performs on skis. The "Lighted Man," a local man outfitted in a 70-pound lighted suit, has been a Steamboat Springs Winter Carnival tradition since 1936.
As with many festivals in 2021, the list of events has been scaled back. The Winter Carnival takes place from February 3–7, but all street events, the Night Extraganvanza, and spectator activities are canceled. Some individual events are taking place, including snow sculptures and the soda pop slalom, which is a winding ski race with twists and turns.
Madison Winter Festival

The Madison Winter Festival is a humble and family-friendly event that showcases Wisconsin's capital. It takes place over just two days from February 6–7, 2021, but it's one of the highlights of the year in this charming university town. Madison's small but fun winter event features a snowshoe obstacle course, tubing hills, Dog Jogs, ice sculptures, and more.
The schedule of events for the 2021 festival is on hold as of January 2021, so be sure to confirm the most up-to-date details before making your way to Madison.
Fur Rendezvous

Pre-dating the Iditarod, the 975-mile dog-sledding race that starts in Anchorage each year, the Fur Rendezvous, affectionately known as "Fur Rondy," has been a tradition in Anchorage since 1935. Featured events during the festival include an official auction (which harkens back to Anchorage's fur trading days, thus "fur" in the name); a Native American blanket toss; an outdoor hockey tournament; outhouse races; and the World Champion Sled Dog Race, a shorter, local version of the mushing contest.
The 2021 World Champion Dog Sled Race is canceled, but you can still take part in the festival from February 26 to March 7, 2021. The official schedule is still pending as of January 2021, but this annual event is an important fundraiser for the entire community and local non-profits, so support is always needed.

Oregon WinterFest is canceled in 2021.
Started in 1999, the festival formerly known as the Bend Winterfest has become one of Oregon's largest winter festivals. In the shadow of the eastern Cascade Mountains and along the banks of the Deschutes River, Oregon Winterfest in the city of Bend includes the Snow Warriors challenging outdoor obstacle course, kids' activities organized by the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry, artisan fire pits, snow sculptures, and a wine walk.
Ullr Fest and International Snow Sculpture Championships

Ullr Fest and the International Snow Sculpture Championships are canceled in 2020–2021. Ullr Fest returns in December 2021 and the International Snow Sculpture Championship returns in January 2022.
Breckenridge Resort in Colorado is known worldwide as a prime skiing destination, but it's also the site of the yearly International Snow Sculpture Championships, which sees expert sculpting teams from as far away as Mongolia and Latvia compete to see who can construct a work of art from a simple block of packed snow. Pair that with Breckenridge's Ullr Fest, a Viking inspired week of fun and winter games, that typically overlaps the timing for the sculpture competition.
Newport Winter Festival

The Newport Winter Festival is canceled in 2021.
One of Rhode Island's classiest cities, the coastal town of Newport has been the site of the Newport Winter Festival, "New England's Largest Winter Extravaganza," since the late 1980s. The 10-day festival is filled with a wide range of over 150 individual events, from a chili cook-off to a children's fair to a "Beatlemania" concert. There are also ice sculpting and sandcastle making competitions during the carnival.

During the coming week we will have contractors onsite doing track maintenance ready for the upcoming festive season.

Maurizio Sarri says Eden Hazard's importance to Chelsea FC is similar to the influence of Lionel Messi at FC Barcelona and Cristiano Ronaldo at Juventus.
The Blues forward has been a key player for Sarri since the Italian head coach took over the reins of the west London side from Antonio Conte in the summer.
Hazard has been given a new lease of life following a sensational return of seven goals in eight games in the Premier League before he suffered a fitness setback in a 2-2 draw with Manchester United in October.
The Belgium international scored his 100th and 101st goals for Chelsea FC in a 2-1 win against Watford at Vicarage Road on Boxing Day to help the Blues cement their position in the top four.
Sarri has used Hazard in a false number nine rose to lead the Chelsea FC attack given the well-documented struggles of both Alvaro Morata and Olivier Giroud.
"Of course he's very important for us but Messi is very important for Barcelona, Ronaldo is important for Juventus.
"He's a great player, he's able to play in every position. At the moment he's playing as a false nine and he's able to play there.
Hazard has scored eight goals and has made nine assists in 16 games in the Premier League this term.
The Belgian forward moved to Chelsea FC in a big-money deal from Ligue 1 side Lille in the 2012 summer transfer window.

Anne Sassoon Interview
Anne Sassoon was born in Llandudno and grew up in Johannesburg, where she became known as a figurative artist, exhibiting at Gallery 101 and the Market Gallery. She studied at the Byam Shaw School of Art and Hornsey College of Art in London and, in 1992, received BA (Hons) Fine Art at Middlesex University, London.
During the apartheid years in South Africa, she made drawings at political trials for publication; covers for previously banned books and wrote art reviews for the Rand Daily Mail. She lived in London from 1986. There she exhibited at the Thumb Gallery and Boundary Gallery. Her solo exhibition was at Gallery Westland Place in 2001. In 1996, Anne Sassoon's painting were featured in the major exhibition Rebels and Rubies at the Barbican Gallery. During her London life she also wrote art reviews for Dialogue Magazine.
She has lived in Jerusalem since 1997, when she became artist-in-residence and curator of exhibitions at Yakar Gallery. She wrote about Israeli art for The Jerusalem Report and now writes about local and international art for Artcritical, New York.
Julia Pascal interviews Sephardi artist Anne Sassoon
What does being a Sephardi mean to you?
I like being part of the Sephardi world. It is warmer and more easy-going than the sterner, rule-ridden Ashkenazi world, and I have always felt welcomed into it. My father was born in Baghdad when it belonged to the Ottoman Empire, so we are Babylonian, which is part of the Sephardim. Other people's memories and photographs of old Baghdad inspire painting ideas in me. I heard Arabic as a child and now, living in Israel, sometimes words come back to me when I need them. I enjoy Sephardi Middle Eastern ways.
Where were you born and where have you lived?
I was born in North Wales and have lived in Johannesburg, London and Jerusalem. I have spent long times in Cape Town and in Boston and Maine, USA. After the war, my parents left England and went to South Africa. My father re-established the Sephardic synagogue, which had disbanded years before because of infighting. The community would meet in our sitting room, sometimes with barely enough men for a minyan. Several beautiful Torah scrolls from Baghdad encased in silver and gold, which had been at the Lauderdale Road Synagogue, were sent to the new community and kept in our house until they found proper premises.
Most SA Jews came from Lithuania or Germany and Sephardim were in the minority. I'm not sure how many Ashkenazi Jews even knew about them. The small community was a mixture of all kinds of people from Baghdad, Syria, Egypt, Lebanon and Morocco. They were friendly and there was a lot of laughing when they came around but they'd have terrible disagreements about the tunes of the prayers, each insisting on their own. Just as the Ashkenazim didn't seem to speak about the Holocaust in those days, the Sephardim never mentioned the Farhud, although it had been so recent.
During the religious holidays our house became a busy centre. At Succot, a big succah was built in our garden for the whole community to come for meals. And once there was an evening of gambling at our house, to raise money for a rabbi. At these occasions our kitchen would be filled with vivacious women, and the delicious aroma of Sephardic cooking: stuffed vine leaves, meat boreikas – and never a query about kashrut.
How would you describe your own experience of Sephardi culture?
Just being Sephardi can be enough to be made welcome. When my Sephardi friend and neighbour in Jerusalem introduced me to her brother, she said: Anne is Sephardi! She even likes barmia! (Barmia is okra, or lady's fingers.)
Whether visiting family or friends or the Baghdad Club in London, there was always a generous welcome. As a child, I was introduced as sibh Salem, Salem's daughter, although his English name was Sidney. He had six brothers and they would all pinch our cheeks, more or less painfully, each in his own style. They'd say: 'Who's your favourite uncle?' And you might say: 'Norman.'
'Why Norman?'
'He gave me a pound.'
'Here's two pounds. Now who's your favourite uncle?'
'You, Uncle Albert!'
Favouritism was accepted as normal and, once established, as the favourite, or least favourite, that was your unavoidable role. The less fortunate had more difficult lives. And with all the smiles and bonhomie, you knew you had to walk on eggshells and make sure not to unwittingly offend anyone. If you did, it would not be forgotten.
Your images are profoundly un-English but your first language is English. Can you say something about this?
English is everybody's language now, but I'm not entrenched in an English point of view. Having changed countries in early childhood, I usually feel at home almost anywhere and, at the same time, something of an outsider. In the studio I give myself the licence to take characters and narratives from anywhere I like, as long as it feels authentic to me and I bring these together in the same painting.
Which artists or people are your influences?
I've learnt from so many artists, from Picasso, Piero della Francesca, Bacon, Hokusai, Goya, Beckmann – the list is too long. But I will mention Gracia, a sad and beautiful Sephardic woman who was an artist in her own way and like a godmother to me as a child. She, and her much older husband, were from Baghdad but had lived for years in Japan. Sometimes I would spend the night or study for exams in a room known as Gracia's boudoir, filled with Japanese woodcuts and ivory carvings. She had a grand piano and played with great feeling – Chopin and Schumann were her favourites, and something about her and the music would almost make me cry. Her husband was small, prune-faced, bald as an egg, and always on the verge of irritation. How could this romantic, life-loving woman be his wife? Much later I heard she had been born to a poor family with many children, and that her marriage as a very young girl to a rich man had saved them from penury.
How did you become an artist?
It is all I have ever been. My mother was an artist, it was a language we shared. I was born during the war while my father was abroad, and only met him when I was two, so my mother and I had a closely bonded relationship. We used to have art competitions, both trying our best to beat the other. When I painted my first mural on the bedroom wall as a kid, instead of getting me into trouble, it was admired. I'm grateful for her belief in me, which sustains me in the studio. When I was 21 I won a prize in a national competition that led to my being taken on by the best gallery in Johannesburg, which was a great help.
You paint yourself on your birthday every year. Why do you do this?
I celebrate the day with self-scrutiny, to check up on myself: what has happened to me and how does it show? If it's a good work, it's a good prognosis for the year to come. The rule is that I have to complete the portrait on the birthday and sometimes I do more than one. The only time I broke that rule, and went on working over the next days, I lost my clear sense of purpose and it showed. It was interesting to push the painting further, and it did become more nuanced but it lost its clout and its purpose.
Can you describe the journey from an idea for a painting and its realisation?
Painting is an ongoing journey: one canvas leads to the next, or several are worked on at once. It can be like feeling your way around a dark room looking for a warm fluffy cat that you know is somewhere there, trusting that eventually you will find it. Or like an underground miner, pushing back boundaries and opening up new space. Sometimes work flows as if the knowledge comes from somewhere else – that's what I hope for. But sometimes it's like scraping a dry bowl; there is nothing there at all, and I believe there never will be.
It's a narrow path between a tiny bit of hope and huge despair. There is an aura of satisfaction, even hubris, after completing some paintings which may last a few days, even weeks, but I am bound to turn against my work unless I sell it and nothing stops me changing – and losing – it. I have painted over and lost many paintings.
What would you say to your younger self?
Respect your own work. Don't destroy it. Get on with it and don't be held back.
If you were to write a few lines to describe the paintings of Anne Sassoon -imagine yourself as AN Other curating her art- what would you say about her individual vision?
Her best work is original and personal. It can be lyrical, quirky and suggest a narrative – but what is actually going on? The artist would have to say that she doesn't really know herself, and doesn't feel the need to know, at which point the curator would be entitled to call it obscure…
Why do you write about art?
Not for the money. And not for the pleasure, as I find it very hard. But I always write for publication. Writing about art is part of my ongoing self-education, to force myself to interrogate and analyse my response to other people's art. It's an exercise which clarifies my thinking. Often I write about artists or curators because I feel they deserve the attention and that I can say something useful. I never write negatively because it wouldn't help anyone and I would find it boring and a waste of time. I started writing critiques in my early twenties and have written for newspapers, magazines, catalogues and books ever since.
Who are the people you paint?
My studio is full of sketchbooks, photographs and drawings, with characters that I refer to, depending on what I'm doing. Sometimes I work straight from YouTube, a bit like life drawing. Sketches of homeless people in Cape Town and drawings from Derek Jarman's Last of England created the characters I used in my series called Exiles, people in boats. Old romance comics, photos from today's newspaper – I have a collection of references.
What will you be painting in the future?
I've been reading Shakespeare's plays during corona and bringing some of the characters and relationships into my new work. I often feel that even though I have been painting all my life, it is as if I have just started.
Tell me about meeting Nelson Mandela.
South Africa is blessed with amazing people and I have been very lucky to meet many of them; every ex-prisoner that I have met from Robben Island is exceptional. I knew Robert Sobukwe best. He was a close friend of my husband, the journalist, Benjamin Pogrund. Sobukwe is a huge inspiration to young South Africans today. Benjamin was Mandela's old friend and Benjy was the first non-family visitor allowed to visit Mandela in jail. Mandela insisted that I come on the next visit, just before we left for London – apparently he had a photograph of me on his cell wall, given by his wife Winnie – and that was when I met him for the first memorable time.

"What kind of penalties can I expect for my DUI charge?"
There are many different factors to consider when determining DUI penalties. The number of prior DUI charges is the biggest factor, however, and penalties sharply increase for each repeat offense.
License suspension and interlock ignition devices will also be a part of a DUI conviction. Other factors, like open containers and the presence of children in the car, may enhance these penalties.
"My last DUI was X years ago. Does it still count against me?"
Florida does have a "lookback" or "washout" period when calculating repeat DUI offenses. If your second DUI offenses occurs more than 5 years from your first, it will not be considered a repeat offense. If your third DUI offense occurs more than 10 years after your second, it will not be considered a repeat offense.
"Why has my license been suspended even before my trial?"
Any DUI arrest in Florida results in an automatic suspension of your license. However, it is possible to retain your driving abilities while you wait for your trial. To do this, you must request an administrative hearing with the DMV within 10 days of your arrest. This hearing will review the facts of your case and determine whether or not the suspension should be upheld while your criminal charge is settled. It is not required that you have representation from a Punta Gorda DUI defense lawyer during this administrative hearing, but it is recommended.
Like many other states, Florida is an "implied consent" state and all licensed drivers are legally obligated to comply with chemical testing during a DUI stop. This can include breath, blood, and urine tests. Arresting officers are required to inform you that if you still refuse to submit to one of these chemical tests, you will incur a license suspension.
"What if I still refuse to submit to a chemical test?"
Refusing to submit to a chemical test will result in a suspension of your driver's license.
"Do I need to submit to a field sobriety test?"
Contrary to what many Florida drivers think, drivers do not have to submit to a field sobriety test requested by officers. However, it should be noted that during a DUI stop, officers are trying to observe evidence that a driver is intoxicated, and refusing to submit to a field sobriety test could implies having something to hide.
However, field sobriety tests are a subjective exercise and, in some cases, can be suppressed when it comes time for trial. Many factors, like age, health, and roadside conditions could interfere with a driver's performance in a field sobriety test. If you were threatened or intimidated by officers into participating in a field sobriety test, it is important that you let your legal representation know.

23rd Annual Cotton and Rural History Conference Takes Place April 27
Home » App » 23rd Annual Cotton and Rural History Conference Takes Place April 27
Regional and public history will be the focus of the 23rd Annual Cotton and Rural History Conference scheduled for April 27 at the Audie Murphy/American Cotton Museum in Greenville, Texas.
Students and faculty from A&M-Commerce and Collin College, as well as other guest speakers, will address a variety of topics including rural life in Central Texas, Hopkins County's dairy industry and how Booker T. Washington's strategy for "racial uplift" played out in rural communities in Arkansas and Texas.
"The Cotton Symposium is a great opportunity for our department to engage with the rich rural and agricultural history of Northeast Texas. This partnership with the Cotton Museum and Collin College is a great way for our universities to preserve and promote regional history," said Dr. Andrew Baker, assistant professor of history at A&M-Commerce.
Audie Murphy/American Cotton Museum
The Scholars' Panel will feature Austin Baxley, an A&M-Commerce alumnus, who will discuss "Tractors and Milk: Developments in Hopkins County Agriculture, 1945-1979." He will explore Hopkins County's path to becoming one of the largest dairy producers in the region. Baxley is a recent A&M-Commerce Honors College graduate, earning his BA in 2015 and MA in 2018. He currently works at Como-Pickton ISD where he teaches history, government and economics. Baxley also serves as an adjunct professor for Northeast Texas Community College.
Baker will chair the Eyewitness Panel which will feature a round-table discussion consisting of Dr. James Conrad, retired A&M-Commerce lead archivist, Susan Lanning, director of the Audie Murphy/American Cotton Museum, and Dr. Kyle Wilkison, a professor from Collin College. They will discuss different historical events from around the area and also tell the conference's decades-old origin story.
Dr. Ken Roberts, a retired professor of economics from Southwestern University, will deliver the keynote address titled "Cedar Choppers: Life on the Edge of Nothing." His teaching and research focus on the effects of agricultural change on poor farmers in developing countries. His research on the cedar choppers in Central Texas continues in that vein; however, unlike other farmers who left their land in response to lower prices and mechanization, these people hung on.
The conference is produced through a partnership with Collin College, A&M-Commerce and the Audie Murphy/American Cotton Museum. Advanced registration is required. Tickets cost $12 ($5 for students) and include a BBQ lunch. Call the museum at 903.450.4502 to register. Deadline to register is April 23. For more information, visit the conference website.
A&M-COMMERCE serves rural and metropolitan Northeast Texas with distinction, consistently delivering on a promise that our founder, Professor William Leonidas Mayo, made more than a century ago: "No industrious, ambitious youth shall be denied an education if I can prevent it." Since our university's humble beginnings, the mission to provide a high-quality, personal, accessible and affordable educational experience for a diverse community of learners remains unchanged.

Foley Hoag is again one of Boston area's top places to work, according to the 2013 edition of the Boston Globe's annual survey of the state's best workplaces.
This marked Foley Hoag's third consecutive year on the list, which appeared in the paper's print edition on November 17. Additionally, Foley Hoag was the only law firm selected for inclusion. The firm earned the ranking from a written submission and confidential interviews with employees by an independent survey company.
Direction – do employees have confidence in firm leadership and believe they operate ethically?
Execution – do employees believe senior management know what to do to help the company succeed, are they sharing information, and are new ideas encouraged?
Connection – do employers appreciate employees? Are employees confident about their future?
Managers – do they help employees grow and learn? Do they care about employee concerns?
Work – does the company offer training, encourage different viewpoints, offer opportunities, help workers balance career and family life, etc.?
Pay and benefits – are employees fairly compensated, with good benefits?
Many of the firm's Massachusetts-based client companies also appeared in the rankings, including Analysis Group, Biogen Idec, Blue Cross-Blue Shield of Massachusetts, Cell Signaling Technology, Cubist Pharmaceuticals, EMC Corporation, Harvard Pilgrim Health Care and Tufts Health Plan. Foley Hoag has nearly 400 partners and employees in Massachusetts.

FCC Enforcement: Anti-Pirate "Muscle" Now Slower than Molasses
I've updated the Enforcement Action Database this week, due to some news out of the FCC regarding its enforcement efforts against unlicensed broadcasting, all of which show little change to the wimpish status quo.
The agency tells Radio World that its plan to close 11 field offices will commence in January of next year. More than 40 field-agent positions will be cut, leaving just 13 offices remaining across the country, with a combined staff of three dozen. These will be backstopped by two "Tiger Teams" staged in Colorado and Maryland, to be dispatched to areas where an "interference crisis" exists within 24 hours.
However, what will those boots on the ground actually do when they get there? If the enforcement protocol itself does not change, the answer will be very little. Once need only look at the three most recent Notices of Apparent Liability issued by the Enforcement Bureau against pirate broadcasters in the last few weeks: touted mightily by the industry trades, a closer look shows a curious pattern of disengagement.

Fiscal "Threat" Posed By NY Pirates Belied By Broadcasters' Own Data
As a part of the campaign now underway to bring the (nonexistent) hammer down on unlicensed broadcasting in the New York metropolitan area, licensed broadcasters are alleging a variety of "harms" caused by pirate stations. Many of them are vastly overblown, such as the threat of interference they pose to a variety of communications networks, dangers from uncontrolled radiation — and, in the newest charge, economic hardships they cause to licensed stations.
The contention that pirate radio stations infringe on the radio industry's right to make mad profits was first floated in an April 2015 blog post by Republican FCC Commissioner Mike O'Rielly; he claimed unlicensed broadcasting "causes unacceptable economic harm to legitimate and licensed American broadcasters by stealing listeners."

HD Radio Makes "Progress," But Analog Still Rules
Earlier this summer Radio World published one of its occasional special "e-books," this one called "HD Radio From the Ground Up" (form-filling required to download). Like most industry trade publications, it's a celebratory document that seeks to paint the U.S. digital broadcast system in the best possible light.
Kicking things off is a tech-centric column from Scott Fybush in which he talks with various enginerring principals about the efficiency of today's FM-HD Radio systems. Unlike the first few generations of the tech, which involved wildly inefficient combination of the analog and digital signals, improvements to the HD system now make for a better marriage. In HD's early years, more than 30 percent of the power that went into the analog/digital combination process was lost as waste heat; now that number is down to something like 10 percent.

iHeartMedia's Thin Skin on Corporate Finances
A funny thing happened just hours after I posted last week's update on iHeartMedia's dance with bankruptcy earlier this year: I got an e-mail from a PR flack contesting my analysis. But it wasn't just any flack — it was Wendy Goldberg, iHeart's chief communications officer. She was displeased with several points I made.
To begin, Goldberg asserted that I had misconstrued the timeline of events surrounding the company's near-default. Instead, iHeart conducted a pre-emptive strike against "a small group of lenders" who planned to call in some $6 billion of the company's $20+ billion outstanding debt burden within 60 days. (This would indeed have immediately tipped the company into default.) Secondly, my she called my assertion that this close call, in my words, worried "the market that the conglomerate is just steps away from bankruptcy" was seemingly, in her words, "confused at best, and speculation at worst."
Finally, Goldberg took umbrage with my contention that iHeartMedia remains near the precipice: "I am assuming this is your own opinion or speculation, and if so you should either couch it as such or remove it." Continue reading "iHeartMedia's Thin Skin on Corporate Finances"

iHeartMedia Seeks Pounds of Flesh for Bankruptcy Pressure
After fending off one legal challenge that would've sent the company into default, the nation's largest radio conglomerate now seeks a spot of revenge.
iHeartMedia is heading back to a Texas courtroom in hopes of getting mega-damages out of a consortium of investors who went after the company, serving a notice of default for playing fast and loose with its $20+ billion worth of debt — a strategy which involves iHeart setting up shell companies to repurchase some of the debt it already owes at lower interest rates, while also working to shield some assets from potential creditors. The conglomerate filed suit to stop the default process, and the Bexar County judge sided with iHeart in May. Continue reading "iHeartMedia Seeks Pounds of Flesh for Bankruptcy Pressure"

Arizona State vs. USC, 11/7/20 College Football Week 10 Predictions
Arizona State vs. USC Prediction
The Pac-12 will make its 2020 debut on Saturday, starting off with a 12:00 p.m. ET kickoff between Arizona State at No. 20 USC. Are the Trojans laying too many points to Sun Devils as a 10.5-point home favorite?
357 Arizona State Sun Devils (+10.5) at 385 USC Trojans (-10.5); o/u 56.5
Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, Los Angeles, CA
12:00 p.m. ET, Saturday, November 7, 2020
Arizona State Sun Devils Game Notes
Arizona State junior RB Rachaad White is listed as the starter ahead of Saturday's season opener at USC. White (6'2/195) was one of the best running backs in the junior college ranks last season, as he rushed for 1,264 yards and ten touchdowns with an average of nearly 115 yards per game at Mt. San Antonio College in California. Filling the void left by Eno Benjamin won't be easy, but the Sun Devils won't lack for options in the backfield. In addition to White, four-star recruits Daniyel Ngata and DeaMonte Trayanum will also have the opportunity to contribute early on.
USC Trojans Game Notes
USC senior RB Vavae Malepeai (knee) will be available to play in Saturday's game against Arizona State. Malepeai (6'0/220) missed a significant portion of last season with a knee injury that required offseason surgery. The senior tailback had also been battling a hamstring injury in fall camp, but that ailment appears to be in his rearview mirror since he has been practicing all week. Last season Malepeai led the Trojans in both rushing yards (503) and rushing touchdowns (six), while averaging 4.8 yards per carry. He will join a committee backfield alongside Stephen Carr and Kenan Christon when USC faces Arizona State in their Pac-12 opener this Saturday.
Arizona State vs. USC Betting Prediction
Both of these teams should be able to put up points on Saturday. In fact, in the last seven meetings between these two programs, the over is 5-2. The over is also 4-1 in the Sun Devils' last five conference games, is 4-1 in their last five games played in the month of November and is a perfect 6-0 in the Trojans' last six games played overall. The over is also 5-0 in USC's last five conference games and has cashed in seven of its last 10 games as a home favorite.

Villa Kolmo (även Ateljéhuset) är en byggnad intill sjön Magelungen vid Nordmarksvägen 6E i Farsta strand, södra Stockholm. Huset är en stor trävilla som uppfördes 1904 för grosshandlaren Johan Wilhelm Andersson. Byggnaden är en av de få kvarvarande villorna i Södertörns villastad och nyttjas i dag som ateljé av en konstnärsförening, därav namnet "Ateljéhuset".

Byggnadsbeskrivning
Villan är en 350 m² stor tvåvåningsbyggnad med inredd vind. Fasaderna präglas av rika fasadutsmyckningar med så kallad snickarglädje. Sockeln består av natursten. Våning en trappa samt gavelrösten är klädda i vitmålat spån och har vita listverk, vindskivor, snickerier och dekorativa foder. Bottenvåningens fasader är rödmålade.

Huset har hela fem frontespiser med sadeltak; en på vardera fasad mot norr, öster, söder, två stycken på fasad mot väster. Yttertaket är ett valmat sadeltak, täckt med rött lertegel och krönt av två skorstenar klädda med plåt. På verandans tak finns en vindflöjel i smide som är utformad som en drake och bär årtalet 1904. På tomten finns tre ekonomibyggnader från sent 1910-tal.

Huset i dag
År 1963 var huset moget för rivning eftersom det hade stått tomt några år, och var svårt vandaliserat. Då slöt sig tio konstnärer samman, tog kontakt med Stockholms stad (som ägde fastigheten) och fick hyra huset. De genomförde sedan en omfattande upprustning och renovering av villan och grundade där "Ateljéhuset Farsta Strand".

Rocca del Cerruglio and Town Walls of Montecarlo
Montecarlo is easily reachable from Florence following the A11 Firenze-Mare until the exit 'Altopascio' and then following the signals.
Prior to 1333, the year when the walled town of Montecarlo and the Rocca was founded, on this hill rose the 'del Cerruglio' fortress, part of the fortifications of the nearby Castle of Vivinaia, now disappeared. Several documents record the 'del Cerruglio' fortress as being 'a badly aligned gothic building surrounded by mighty walls erected with squared masonry stones and protected by a fortress with keep and towers'.
During the fourteenth century the fortress played a strategic role in the wars between Lucca, Pisa and Florence. From its walls Castruccio Castracani, lord of Lucca, directed the movements of the army that helped him in 1325 to win the battle of Altopascio.
Ruins of the old fortress can still be identified in the northwest section at the highest vertex of the triangular shaped defence perimeter of the new Rocca, delimited by an imposing crenellated round tower [the Keep], connected with the other two corners through powerful curtain walls built in bricks and reinforced each with a quadrangular tower in the middle. Also the main front of the fortress, toward the city, is built in bricks, with a semicircular tower and double walled curtain: the external one with battlements and the inner one equipped with machicolations. The main gate on this side can be reached only walking through a tight path, delimited by walls equipped with machicolations and gun holes.
The fortress was renovated and enlarged by Carlo IV° and afterwards - in the sixteenth century - by Cosimo I de' Medici with the addition of two bastions (never completed) on the eastern front, in order to create a great courtyard for the Valdinievole's Army. In 1775 the fortress was dismantled and now it is a private property. The rocca is connected with the town walls, today fairly intact, even if only a few of the 15 original towers remains. The Northeast side is naturally well defended and it was built without towers. Three town gates are well preserved: the Florentine Gate and the smaller Lucca Gate were built in the 14th century, the Porta Nuova (New Gate) is of the 16th century.

Post category:Cyber Attacks Statistics / Security
It's time for the statistics derived from the Cyber Attacks Timelines of November (Part I and Part II).
Let us begin with the Country Distribution chart that, easy predictable, shows the US on top of all categories. However, globally, even Italy, Canada and UK show up, respectively for Hacktivism (the first two countries) and Cyber Crime (the latter).
The Daily Trend of Attacks chart shows a moderate activity with a peak on the 10th, and a plateau between the 13th and 14th. Despite the 5th of November is a day felt by Hacktivists, no noticeable operations have been recorded this year.
Once again Cyber Crime leads the Motivations Behind Attacks chart with 55.8% substantially in line with the previous month (was around 60%). Hacktivism ranks at number two with 28.6%, a remarkable increase compared to 13.8% of October. Whereas Cyber Espionage remains quite high (13%, despite in decrease compared to the record value of 17.2% recorded in October.
Defacements lead the Attack Techniques chart with 20.8% (among the known attacks). SQLi ranks at number two with 13.0% very close to DDoS, at number three with 11.7% (a consequence of the hacktivism driven hacking spree recorded in November). Targeted attacks rank at number four with 10.4%, still quite an important value, even if in decrease compared to 13.8% of October.
For the third month in a row, industry ranks on top of the Distribution of Targets chart (28.6%, nearly identical to October when it was 28.7%). As always governmental targets rank at number two (23.4%). While organizations are back at number three (14.3%).
Again, targets belonging to E-Commerce rank on top of the Industry Dill Drown chart, while political organizations lead the Organization Drill Down chart.
As usual, the sample must be taken very carefully since it refers only to discovered attacks included in my timelines. The sample does not pretend to be exhaustive but only aims to provide an high level overview of the "cyber landscape", or at least of the ones that gained space in the media (yes, using an abused expression this is just the tip of the Iceberg).
If you want to have an idea of how fragile our data are inside the cyberspace, have a look at the timelines of the main Cyber Attacks in 2011, 2012, 2013 and now 2014 (regularly updated). You may also want to have a look at the Cyber Attack Statistics.
Of course follow @paulsparrows on Twitter for the latest updates, and feel free to submit remarkable incidents that in your opinion deserve to be included in the timelines (and charts).

JetBlue Cuts 17 U.S. and International Routes

twitter pinterest linkedin tumblr reddit email
JetBlue Airways just became the latest U.S. carrier to drastically reduce its flight roster.
Following similar moves by American Airlines, which recently cut numerous domestic and international flights, and United Airlines and Delta Air Lines, which both eliminated service to several U.S. hubs, JetBlue has confirmed that it will be slashing more than a dozen routes from its schedule this spring.
"As part of our ongoing review of our network, this spring we'll end service on 17 routes that have underperformed and transition a handful of markets to seasonal," Philip Stewart, JetBlue's manager of corporate communications, said in a statement sent to AFAR.
These are the routes JetBlue will no longer be offering, many of which are from the East Coast to the Caribbean, Latin America, and Florida:
Fort Lauderdale, Florida, to Bozeman, Montana
Las Vegas to Cancun, Mexico
Los Angeles to Bozeman
Newark, New Jersey, to Antigua
Newark to Bridgetown, Barbados
Newark to Cartagena, Colombia
Newark to Port-au-Prince, Haiti
Newark to St. Thomas
New York (JFK) to Bermuda
New York to Bogota, Colombia
Philadelphia to San Juan, Puerto Rico
Providence, Rhode Island, to Fort Myers, Florida
Providence to Tampa, Florida
Raleigh-Durham, North Carolina, to San Juan
Richmond, Virginia, to Tampa
Sacramento, California, to Cancun
San Francisco to Cancun
"Most of these routes were additions we made in response to pandemic travel trends," Stewart said. He added that "even with these reductions—most of which operated less than daily—we still expect our 2022 schedule to be our biggest-ever and we'll continue to grow our fleet with new aircraft throughout the year."
This isn't the first time that JetBlue has seriously slimmed down its schedule in recent months. Back in the summer, the carrier slashed 24 flights from its network, including many cuts to service from Pennsylvania and North Carolina:
Atlanta to Orlando, Florida
Austin, Texas, to Orlando
Austin to Raleigh-Durham, North Carolina
Austin to San Francisco
Boston to Burbank, California
Chicago O'Hare to West Palm Beach, Florida
Cleveland to Fort Myers, Florida
Orlando to Bogota, Colombia
Philadelphia to Fort Myers
Philadelphia to Orlando
Philadelphia to Tampa
Philadelphia to West Palm Beach
Pittsburgh to Fort Lauderdale, Florida
Pittsburgh to West Palm Beach
Raleigh-Durham to Fort Myers
Raleigh-Durham to Jacksonville, Florida
Raleigh-Durham to Las Vegas
Raleigh-Durham to Montego Bay, Jamaica
Raleigh-Durham to Orlando
Raleigh-Durham to San Francisco
Raleigh-Durham to Tampa
Richmond, Virginia, to Las Vegas
San Francisco to Orlando
Washington, D.C. to Tampa
JetBlue extends London service, adds flights from New York and Boston
It's not all about route reductions at JetBlue, though. There's some good news to report both on the domestic and international travel front. After launching its first transatlantic flights to London's Heathrow from New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport in August 2021, JetBlue last month confirmed that the service would be extended through October 2022. JetBlue's 2022 London flights are currently available to be booked online.
Additionally, last month JetBlue announced that together with its partner American Airlines, the two carriers will be beefing up service from New York and Boston, including all-new service to Vancouver, Canada (JetBlue's first time flying to Canada), from New York, and increased service from JFK to Aruba, Atlanta, Cancun, Detroit, Jamaica, Minneapolis-St. Paul, Raleigh-Durham, St. Lucia, and Turks and Caicos.
JetBlue will also begin flying to Asheville Regional Airport in North Carolina for the first time in 2022, with service to and from Boston.

Coherus Biosciences Inc (NASDAQ:CHRS) submitted a biologics licensing application (BLA) for its lead biosimilar development candidate earlier this month, and is drawing a lot of speculative attention based on the potential impact of the drug it's trying to get approved. Here is why.
The drug in question is called CHS-1701 and it's an oncology candidate. Before we get into that in too much detail, however, let's quickly address the biologics and the biosimilar spaces. Biologics are a type of treatment derived from living organisms, rather than chemically synthesized. They are all more complicated than chemical drugs, and much larger in size. This makes them more difficult to copy, and in turn, makes it more difficult for a company to create a generic version of a biologic. Rather than create an exact copy (because it is not possible) the FDA has set up a framework for approving what it calls biosimilars. Essentially, a generic drug company makes its own biologic and attempts to make it as similar as possible to the drug it is trying to imitate. It then goes about proving the similarity by way of clinical trials. If the data from these trials demonstrates non-inferiority from an efficacy perspective, and the safety profiles are similar, the FDA will approve the drug. Think of it as a generic drug, but for a biologic rather than a chemical drug.
So, with CHS-1701, Coherus is trying to make a biosimilar (generic) version of a drug called pegfilgrastim, which was developed by Amgen, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMGN), approved in 2002 and now markets as Neulasta in the US. It is the largest selling oncology product in the US, meaning Coherus would have a huge market opportunity if it can demonstrate non-inferiority and get an FDA green light for commercialization.
It's not all that straightforward, however.
By way of its Sandoz subsidiary, Novartis AG (ADR) (NYSE:NVS) tried to get its own biosimilar version of Neulasta approved in the US, however the agency turned the drug down in July. We don't have the exact details, Sandoz was pretty vague on what the complete response letter cited as the reason behind the decline, but we know that the data on which the Sandoz BLA rested looked pretty solid. Sandoz already pick up approval for one of Amgen's drugs, Neupogen, and looks set to pick up another for its Enbrel biosimilar any day now (an advisory just unanimously voted in favor of its approval), so the FDA isn't averse to giving these types of drugs the thumbs up – meaning it must've been something specific related to the application.
So what about the data for this one? Well, the company reported topline back in July, and the drug met all of its coprimary endpoints across a range of comparison targets, and just as importantly, the confidence intervals that addressed the equivalency when bang in the middle of the prespecified range of 80% to 125%. To put this in a little simpler terms, the drug went up against its pegfilgrastim target and performed just as well in pretty much every important aspect of comparison.
So what's the take away here? Well, Sandoz didn't have much luck with its biosimilar, but there looks to be no reason (based on information we have) that Coherus will be in the same position come decision day. The FDA is on a sweep of BLA approvals, and advisory panels seem to love these new generation treatments. Efficacy is there, safety is there, and equivalency is there, and the market exceeds $4 billion at saturation. There's going to be competition, of course. Especially if Sandoz reapplies for for approval (which it will almost certainly did) and brings its own biosimilar to market to compete not just with the branded version but also CHS-1701. Having said this, if Coherus can get first-to-market it will have a distinct advantage from a marketing perspective, and if it can execute on a solid commercialization strategy, it should be able to quickly attract some of these $4 billion revenues away from Amgen's sheet and towards its own.
We're looking to acceptance of the BLA as the next catalyst, and beyond that, an advisory review followed by decision day.


I am 23 years old. I am currently living in an awesome house near campus. I have studied Anthropology and Philosophy for about three years now. My ideal careers are Competition Winner and General Facilitator.

Q: How does the photon differentiate between events? As far as I know for a photon that's moving at the speed of light (obviously) time comes to a halt and space contracts to a point, making all travels instant from its perspective. Now this is the part I might have understood wrong, so please correct me if what I've said isn't true.
Yet supposing it's true, then how can a photon differentiate between travelling say one meter and being absorbed by some electron and going through space unobstructed for 10 billion light years? To me it seems like both of these travels are instant from its perspective, yet we know that one is shorter and the other is longer from the perspective of an observer who is slower than light.

A: As far as I know for a photon that's moving at the speed of light (obviously) time comes to a halt and space contracts to a point, making all travels instant from its perspective. Now this is the part I might have understood wrong, so please correct me if what I've said isn't true.
It isn't true I'm afraid. Imagine you were travelling though this universe at a speed that was so close to the speed of light that we couldn't tell the difference. What perspective do you have? None! You are subject to a virtually-infinite time dilation, such that you are effectively a frozen popsicle. For example if I knew your course in advance, I could laboriously tug an asteroid and place it in your path. You wouldn't see it. Then BLAM, that's the end of you and your so-called perspective.
How can a photon differentiate between travelling say one meter and being absorbed by some electron and going through space unobstructed for 10 billion light years?
It can't. Both of these journeys might seem to be instant from its perspective, but it doesn't have any perspective.

Q: Using FMPP with Gradle I am attempting to convert an ant task which uses fmpp over to gradle.  I am unable to get my project to build.  I have the following in my build.xml file:
<project name="website">
    <property file="build.properties" />
    <property name="src.dir" location="src" />
    <property name="build.dir" location="build" />
    <taskdef name="fmpp" classname="fmpp.tools.AntTask">
        <classpath>
            <pathelement location="lib/fmpp.jar"/>
        </classpath>
    </taskdef>
    <target name="clean">
        <delete dir="${build.dir}" />
    </target>
    <target name="dist">
        <fmpp sourceRoot="${src.dir}" outputRoot="${build.dir}">
            <data expandProperties="yes">
                base_url: ${base_url}
                google_analytics_number: ${google_analytics_number}
                mail_user: ${mail_user}
                mail_password: ${mail_password}
                mail_recipient: ${mail_recipient}
                upload_folder: ${upload_folder}
                host: ${host}
                port: ${port}
            </data>
        </fmpp>
    </target>
</project>

my build.gradle file looks like this
ant.taskdef(name: 'fmpp', classname:'fmpp.tools.AntTask') {
    classpath {
        fileset(dir: 'lib', includes: '*.jar')
    }
}

ant.fmpp(sourceRoot:"src", outputRoot :"build") {
    data(expandProperties: 'yes'){
        base_url = base_url
        google_analytics_number = google_analytics_number
        mail_user = mail_user
        mail_password = mail_password
        mail_recipient = mail_recipient
        upload_folder = upload_folder
        host = host
        port = port
    }
}

but when I run it I get the following error

FMPP processing session failed.
    Caused by: freemarker.core.InvalidReferenceException: Expression base_url is undefined on line 15, column 47 in data/header.htm.

So it seems like the template variable in the htm file isn't being properly picked up and implemented in my my build.  I am not sure how to get around this.  There are a few gradle plugins for fmpp but have very limited documentation and I am having difficulty getting any of them to work.  If any one has suggestions or a work around it would be greatly appreciated.
*** Update
Here is an example of the htm file that's trying to be applied
  <head>

A: The problem lies in the fact that both properties read from gradle.properties and data properties are named exactly the same. To fix it you need to refer to value hidden under property with project instance, e.g.:
base_url = project.base_url

Have a look at the demo I've just prepared. It runs without any errors. If you rename properties in gradle.properties you may skip project, this is the case for port2 property - renamed on purpose.


Five Dirty Items in Your House.
Thought the kitchen counter was the dirtiest thing in your home? You'll be surprised.
You scrub the toilet bowl meticulously, wipe down your kitchen bench every evening and vacuum the carpet with precision. But some of the dirtiest items in your home may be the ones you don't often think of cleaning.
How often do you clean your cleaning utensils? If your answer was not often enough, you're not alone. Sponges, cloths and scrub brushes are responsible for wiping up the biggest messes in your home, and these utensils are often one of the most germ-infested areas, with their damp material being a breeding ground for mould.
To keep clean, be sure to rinse the utensil in hot water, wring out and leave to dry on a rack after every use and launder them every couple of days or when they start to smell. Most importantly, be sure to toss out sponges, cloths or rags every few weeks.
Whenever we move into a different room of the house, we transfer any of the germs on our hands to the various doorknobs we touch. If left unclean, this results in the doorknob becoming one of the filthiest items in the house. To clean, use a cloth and hot, soapy water to wipe down, either weekly or as needed.
The drain of your kitchen is filled with bacteria, with germ growth encouraged thanks to the combination of food scraps and moisture. Many experts believe the average kitchen sink is actually dirtier than your toilet seat. To ensure your drain is as germ free as possible, pour a cup of baking soda down the drain, followed by a cup of vinegar, finish by letting the mixture sit for a minute and then pour a kettle of boiling water down the drain. Use this inexpensive and eco-friendly cleaning method at least once a week and your drain should be in pristine condition.
The average person uses the electronic devices in their home numerous times in a day, resulting in a large amount of bacteria building up on your remotes and keyboards. For example, the Wall Street Journal found the average mobile phone has up to 30,000 colony-forming units of bacteria. To ensure these devices are kept as clean as possible, swab your remote, keyboard, mouse and your mobile phone (including it's cover), once a week with a well wrung-out disinfectant wipe.
We all make sure to scrub the toilet seat and bowl. However, many people forget to clean the base of the toilet and surrounding floor, which, is surprisingly one of the filthiest areas of the bathroom (particularly if you have small children or men in the house). To keep this area clean, be sure to wipe down the base whenever you clean the toilet and mop the surrounding floor at least once a week.

TuneUp cleans iTunes library
David Pescovitz 11:13 am Wed Jul 16, 2008
I have a huge iTunes library, more than 25,000 songs and 140+ GB. I've acquired my music from all over the place — ripped from CD, downloaded, shared from friends, etc. As a result, many of the album, artist, and track names are a total wreck. Tunes are mislabeled, some artist names include "The" and some don't (Beatles vs. The Beatles), and a slew of tunes are titled "track 01," etc. A few days ago though, my friend Gabe Adiv fixed almost all my metadata for me. His company, TuneUp Media, just launched a plug-in for iTunes that cleans up your library's metadata and grabs the missing album cover art. It takes an "audio fingerprint" of each track and then gets the appropriate data from Gracenote's Global Media Database. It'll also let you know if you're missing any tracks from a particular album so you can buy them from iTunes or, er, find them elsewhere.
Right now, the TuneUp Companion is only available for Windows. (Mac version is coming in the Fall.) I don't use Windows, so last week I gave my hard drive to Gabe to test the software on his PC. He said it took about 12 hours to process my whole collection (10 hours to clean, 2 hours to get the cover art.) It couldn't find the metadata for approximately 500 tracks, but that doesn't surprise me because I easily have that many live concert bootlegs that aren't in Gracenote's database. The company claims they're averaging a correct rate of 85 to 90 percent. A quick flip through my library makes me think it worked even better than that for the metadata and about that well for album art.
TuneUp Companion has several other features that I haven't personally seen in action. It grabs contextual content from various places online. For example, if you're listening to "Creep" by Radiohead, the "Now Playing" feature will check YouTube for live videos of the song and search for bio info and music news. The Concert feature looks for tour information and can be set to alert you if a band is coming to your town. Gabe told me they're planning to open up the "Now Playing" API so anyone can create their own contextual content features.
For me though, the Clean feature is the big selling point. TuneUp costs $12 a year or $20 for a lifetime of use. A free version is available that cleans 500 songs so you can get a sense before you pay if it will work as well for you as it did for me.
