Featuring an exclusive remix of U2's single "Elevation," a brand-new track from Nine Inch Nails, and singles from Moby, Fatboy Slim, the Chemical Brothers, and Groove Armada, the high-octane soundtrack to "Tomb Raider" is the biggest kick in the pants since "The Matrix."
Critics of the movie adaptation of Bernard Malamud's "The Natural" point to the grandstanding finale, which departs sharply from the novel. But what 1984's movie audience needed was a hero, and Robert Redford's gilded incarnation of Roy Hobbs delivered. This beautiful (and influential) film should have won the technical Oscars® it was nominated for but did not win: Caleb Deschanel's cinematography, Mel Bourne and Angelo Graham's art direction, and (especially) Randy Newman's score are superb.

"Superman - The Movie (Special Edition)"
Though many prefer the sequel, our heart belongs to the first "Superman." This is the only film that infuses the Superman legend (including life on planet Krypton and Clark Kent's early years) with an epic sweep. And of the four features, this is the only DVD that has been released in a remastered, special-edition form. Added footage from TV airings has been incorporated into the film along with three documentaries, commentary, and some wonderful screen tests. Here we can see how Christopher Reeve grew into the role and learn which other actresses might have been Lois Lane (including Anne Archer and Stockard Channing).
Alan Silvestri did the score to The Mummy Returns, not Jerry Goldsmith, who did the first one.
Director Stephen Sommers is at the helm once more for The Mummy Returns, the eagerly anticipated sequel to 1999's worldwide blockbuster The Mummy. Brendan Fraser reprises his role as adventurer Rick O'Connell. Also returning are co-stars Rachel Weisz (as Evelyn), John Hannah (as Evelyn's brother, Jonathan) and Arnold Vosloo (as Imhotep). The soundtrack includes the exclusive new song "Forever May Not Be Long Enough," performed by LIVE and co-written by Glen Ballard. The score was written by composer Alan Silvestri, and will be released May 1, 2001 from Decca Records.
Set in 1935, ten years after the events of The Mummy, a band of treasure hunters seeking artifacts to sell to the British Museum unearth the remains of the high priest Imhotep. Transported to London, Imhotep is resurrected and once more embarks on his quest for immortality. But another force has also been set loose in the world - one born of the darkest rituals of ancient Egyptian mysticism, and even more powerful than Imhotep. When these two forces clash, the fate of the world will hang in the balance, sending Rick and Evelyn on a desperate race to save the world from unspeakable evil. The Decca soundtrack album features the epic original score by Oscar, Grammy and Golden Globe nominee Alan Silvestri (Back To The Future, Forrest Gump, What Lies Beneath, The Mexican). It also includes a brand new track by the powerful rock band LIVE, whose four MCA/Radioactive albums have sold millions of copies worldwide. The track, "Forever May Not Be Long Enough," is co-written and produced by five-time Grammy winner Glen Ballard, known for his chart-topping successes with Alanis Morissette, Aerosmith, Michael Jackson and most recently the Dave Matthews Band. This track, played over the end credits of the film, is exclusively available on The Mummy Returns soundtrack album until LIVE's next studio album is released by MCA/Radioactive on July 31.
Universal Pictures and Alphaville Productions present The Mummy Returns, the first blockbuster release of the summer. The film opens May 4 in theaters everywhere and features groundbreaking visual effects by the Oscar-winning Industrial Light & Magic.

From Decca Records An epic story of courage and revenge set against the splendor and barbarity of the Roman Empire, Ridley Scott's Gladiator has been hailed as one of the best films of 2000 by critics nationwide, and recently won the Golden Globe for Best Picture. The original soundtrack was released April 25, 2000 on Decca Records, and has subsequently received a Golden Globe win for Best Original Score as well as Oscar and Grammy nominations for Best Score Soundtrack Album From a Motion Picture. On the heels of this acclaimed first release, Gladiator - More Music From the Motion Picture, is the official must-have companion to the original soundtrack, featuring music previously unavailable from Academy Award winning composer Hans Zimmer and collaborator Lisa Gerrard. The CD from Decca Records is now available . A treat for Gladiator fans everywhere, this new companion CD contains even more spectacular music written for the film that was not featured on the original soundtrack. The album also contains classic dialogue from the movie, which starred Russell Crowe in the pivotal leading role of Maximus. Crowe was recently nominated for a Golden Globe as Best Actor - Drama. Added bonuses in the package include a Gladiator screen saver, as well as the international dance hit "Now We Are Free" (Maximus Mix), featuring Lisa Gerrard on vocals. Hans Zimmer and Lisa Gerrard - having worked together for the first time on the original score -- once again display their unique collaborative talent for crafting majestic and powerful music The New York Times described as "a state of mind that isn't limited to one generation." The original Decca soundtrack album was a staple of Billboard's Top 200 and Top Soundtracks Charts, and was the best-selling film score of 2000 having sold one million units worldwide. Hans Zimmer is one of the most prolific composers in Hollywood who has penned scores to numerous films including Mission: Impossible 2, The Lion King, Rain Man and The Thin Red Line. He also scored Hannibal, the upcoming sequel to The Silence of the Lambs and Pearl Harbor. In late January, he was awarded with the Broadcast Film Critic's Best Original Score trophy for Gladiator in addition to his Golden Globe win. Lisa Gerrard, formerly of the groundbreaking group Dead Can Dance, burst upon the film scoring scene after composing music to The Insider, which garnered a Golden Globe nomination for Best Original Score. She also made Entertainment Weekly's latest "It List"; an annual issue comprised of the 100 most creative people in entertainment. Music from Oscar winner Gladiator. Relive the passion and excitement of the epic blockbuster with all of the powerful music from the film, now on two breathtaking CDs.
Based on the best-selling novel by Thomas Harris, Hannibal is the eagerly anticipated sequel to The Silence of the Lambs - winner of five Academy Awards including Best Picture. Directed by Ridley Scott, the film stars Sir Anthony Hopkins as the sinister Dr. Hannibal Lecter and Julianne Moore as FBI Agent Clarice Starling. The hauntingly romantic score was written by Academy Award winning composer Hans Zimmer, and is to be released February 6, 2001 from Decca Records. Seven years have passed since Dr. Hannibal Lecter escaped from custody and seven years since FBI Agent Clarice Starling interviewed him in a maximum-security hospital for the criminally insane. The doctor is now at large in Europe, pursuing his own interests, savoring the scents, the essences of an unguarded world. But Starling has never forgotten her encounters with Dr. Lecter - his seldom-used voice still haunts her dreams. Mason Verger remembers Dr. Lecter too, and is obsessed with revenge. Verger was Dr. Lecter's sixth victim, and, though hideously disfigured, has survived. Verger soon realizes that in order to draw the doctor out into the open, he must use someone Lecter cannot resist as bait: Clarice Starling. Hannibal reunites acclaimed director Ridley Scott and Academy Award winning composer Hans Zimmer -- both of whom lent their talents to last year's epic, Gladiator. One of the most prolific composers in Hollywood, Zimmer has garnered multiple Oscar nominations for his film scores -- including Rain Man and As Good As It Gets. His music for The Lion King earned him a Grammy, a Golden Globe and an Oscar for Best Original Score. Most recently, his music for Gladiator won a Golden Globe Award and received a Grammy nomination for Best Original Score. "This is the best love theme I've ever written," Zimmer says of his music for Hannibal. "I keep telling everyone this is a romantic comedy, but nobody believes me." In addition to Zimmer's score, the soundtrack album also includes a classic performance from Bach's "Goldberg Variations" by Glenn Gould and a dramatic, new mini-opera featuring 21-year-old soprano Danielle de Niese. Her career is off to a prodigious start with operatic debuts scheduled in Amsterdam, Paris and Tokyo, as well as engagements with the New York Philharmonic, the National Symphony and an upcoming title role appearance at the Metropolitan Opera. As a finishing touch, three tracks feature the chilling voice of Hopkins as Hannibal Lecter himself! A joint production of MGM, Universal Pictures and DEG, Hannibal opens in theaters everywhere on February 9, 2001 -- ten years after the release of The Silence of the Lambs. Hans Zimmer's hauntingly romantic score perfectly fits the mood of the film and dramatically recreates the excitement and suspense of the screen.
Julia Roberts (Erin Brockovich) and Brad Pitt (Fight Club) star together for the first time in the romantic action comedy The Mexican, also starring James Gandolfini (The Sopranos). The soundtrack for the film is a winning combination of original music composed by Alan Silvestri, coupled with classic pop tracks spanning the past few decades. The CD will be released February 27, 2001 from Decca Records in anticipation of one of the most talked about movies to open this spring. Well suited for the film's fast-paced action, the free-wheeling, Mexican-flavored soundtrack features original music by Alan Silvestri, who has composed film scores for such blockbusters as Back To The Future, Forrest Gump and What Lies Beneath. Peppered with hits including Nancy Sinatra's "These Boots Are Made For Walkin'," Dean Martin's "You're Nobody 'Til Somebody Loves You," War's "Why Can't We Be Friends" and Men Without Hats "Safety Dance," the record is as a rollicking good time as the film. In The Mexican, Brad Pitt stars as Jerry Welbach, a reluctant bagman who has been given two ultimatums. The first is from his mob boss to travel to Mexico to retrieve a priceless antique pistol known as "the Mexican"... or to suffer the consequences. The second is from his girlfriend, Samantha (Julia Roberts), to end his association with the mob. Jerry figures alive and in trouble with Samantha is better than the more permanent alternative, so he heads south of the border. Finding the pistol proves easy. Getting it home is another matter. The pistol supposedly carries a legendary curse - a legend Jerry is given every reason to believe, especially when Samantha is taken hostage by a hit man (James Gandolfini) to ensure the safe return of the pistol. DreamWorks Pictures and Pistolero Productions presents The Mexican, directed by Gore Verbinski (Mouse Hunt).

Towson University Requires Students & Faculty To Get Booster Shots
By CBS Baltimore Staff January 10, 2022 at 1:32 pm
Filed Under:booster shots, COVID-19, Towson University
TOWSON, Md. (WJZ) — Towson University is mandating COVID-19 booster shots for all students, staff and faculty who are eligible to receive them.
The university's administration notified the campus community of the changes in a letter Friday, saying all students, staff and faculty would be required to submit proof of their vaccination status by Jan. 31 or within 14 days of them becoming eligible for the booster shot.
The change falls in line with a measure from the University System of Maryland, which is requiring all students who live on campus to get their booster shots.
"We learn more each day about the virus and the omicron variant, which has proven to spread more rapidly than prior strains. We're also seeing that those who are vaccinated and have had a booster are far less likely to become seriously ill or hospitalized," the university's letter said in part.
As with vaccines, there are exemptions available for people who cannot get the COVID-19 booster due to religious or medical reasons. Those who already obtained exemptions for the vaccine do not need to apply for a booster shot exemption.
All members of the university community will be required to submit a negative test result for COVID-19 by Jan. 31 or within the five-day window leading up to their return to campus for work, classes or move-in, whichever comes first.
In addition, the university is requiring masks to be worn in all indoor locations on campus, and it is requiring KN95 masks in all classroom settings for the rest of the minimester and the start of the spring term.
While students, staff and faculty are asked to bring their own KN95 masks, there will be a supply of the masks provided at different locations on campus.

Q: Django: Is there a way to keep the dev server from restarting when a local .py file is changed and dynamically loaded? In Django (1.9) trying to load .py files (modules) dynamically (via importlib). The dynamic reload is working like a charm, but every time I reload a module, the dev server restarts, having to reload everything else.
I'm pulling in a lot of outside data (xml) for testing purposes, and every time the environment restarts, it has to reload all of this external xml data. I want to be able to reload a module only, and keep that already loaded xml data intact, so that it doesn't have to go through that process every time I change some py-code.
Is there a flag I can set/toggle (or any other method) to keep the server from restarting the whole process for this single module reload?
Any help very appreciated.

A: If you run the development server using --noreload parameter it will not auto reload the changes:
python manage.py runserver --noreload

Disables the auto-reloader. This means any Python code changes you make while the server is running will not take effect if the particular Python modules have already been loaded into memory.

Symposium on the Economic Impacts of Data Localisation in Africa: Mandatory Data Localisation as a Means to Means to Attract FDI? A View from South Africa
Alexander Beyleveld
In a 2018 paper, Casella and Formenti rely on work undertaken by the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) to illustrate the differences between the FDI patterns observed among large multinational enterprises (MNEs) depending on their 'internet intensity'. They map UNCTAD's digital framework into a conceptual matrix positioning digital categories on the basis of their internet intensity (the internet intensity matrix or IIM), along two dimensions: production and operations, on the one hand, and commercialization and sales, on the other. The IIM distinguishes between purely digital multinational enterprises, non-digital MNEs and a group of 'mixed model' MNEs which falls somewhere between the two extremes. Their subsequent analysis and findings is where things get interesting: as it turns out, digital MNEs have a share of foreign sales that is more than 2.5 times the share of foreign assets compared to traditional, non-digital MNEs. In other words, digital firms do not tend to invest a great deal in markets abroad in order to secure foreign sales. This is despite the fact that many of the world's largest digital MNEs often make in excess of half of their sales abroad.
Against this backdrop, it is fairly easy, at least from a South African perspective, to imagine the temptation to apply data localisation measures with a view to forcing digital MNEs to engage more extensively in foreign direct investment (FDI): if firms heavily reliant on South African data to make sales to South Africans profit heavily from those sales without investing as much as MNEs ordinarily invest, why not use data localisation measures as one way to force the issue? Some version of this question appears to be on the mind of certain South African policymakers, with the South African Department of Communications and Digital Technologies having published a Draft National Data and Cloud Policy (Draft NDCP) for comment in April 2021, which in its current form suggests that a number of policy interventions be implemented, including that all data which form part of South Africa's 'critical information infrastructure' shall be processed and stored within the borders of South Africa, that a copy of all personal data transferred out of South Africa must be stored in the country for the purposes of law enforcement and that '[t]o ensure ownership and control … [d]ata generated in South Africa shall be the property of South Africa, regardless of where the technology company is domiciled'.
In turning the Draft NDCP into a final policy, it is perfectly conceivable that the South African government will be contemplating the extent to which using these types of policy levers, especially in the form of mandatory data localisation requirements, are likely to facilitate FDI flowing into the country. In this essay, I broadly contemplate the question of whether this could work – and at what cost, to whom[1].
South African Distributional Challenges as Context
It is difficult to dispute that the most pressing challenges in contemporary South Africa are those surrounding economic distributions. South African income and wealth inequality is notoriously high, with many a publication referring to South Africa as being one of the most unequal countries on the planet (if not the most). Accordingly to World Inequality Database (WID.world) data, the top 10% of income recipients in the country will receive approximately 66.5% of total pre-tax income in 2021 (compared to 47.3% in 1994), with the top 1% receiving as much as 21.9% (compared to 11.3% in 1994). While the fiscal system has done a fair deal of work to redistribute income, post-tax inequality has also been rising significantly during the country's transition to democracy. WID.world further tells us that when it comes to total net personal wealth in 2021, an estimated 85.7% of it will accrue to the wealthiest 10% of South Africans, whereas the wealthiest 1% will account for 55% of total net wealth. South Africa's economy is also characterised by high levels of economic concentration, which has often been converted into disproportionately high mark-ups by global standards. Moreover, according to one study, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) account for more than 98% of businesses in South Africa and between 50% and 60% of the country's workforce across all sectors. All of these factors should be front and centre in the mind of any South African economic policymaker – they serve as critical context. After all, economic inequality at South African levels is a drag on growth and slows down the rate at which the growth that is realised reduces poverty.
Costs and Benefits: Contemplating the Potential Value of Forcing FDI through Localisation
It should, of course, also be noted that many digital MNEs operate in the South African market without facing much (if any) competition from local firms. Against this backdrop, the South African desire to benefit from data generated in South Africa, from South Africans is most understandable. But is the deployment of data localisation measures to force digital MNEs to invest in the country really the best way to achieve this? The Draft NDCP – with its reliance on the 'critical information infrastructure' concept and the clear attempt at assertion of sovereignty over the data generated by South Africans – appears to be looking at the Chinese data localisation model for inspiration. So, in answering this question, let us start by looking at parts of the Chinese experience.
It is true that China has to a large degree, largely on sovereignty grounds, cordoned off its citizens data to the benefit of both state owned and private Chinese firms. Through a host of measures – mandatory localisation being a prominent one among these – the Chinese government has been able to leverage its large population and the size of its internal market to build its own national tech giants such as Baidu and Tencent. This approach has undoubtedly facilitated certain types of investment, with many foreign firms purchasing large stakes in Chinese tech firms. Naspers – one of South Africa's own largest multinationals – is perhaps a prime example: through Prosus, its Dutch-listed international asset division, it is the single largest shareholder in Tencent, which has consistently been one of the world's ten largest publicly traded firms since at least 2017.
This does not mean, however, that the Chinese approach is heavily reliant on attracting FDI per se. There are still several examples, of course, where China has used its localisation laws to pressure large foreign multinationals into investing directly into its economy. In 2017, for example, Apple announced that it would invest more than $1 billion in order to build its first data centre in China. The data centre, which was subsequently built (and is operational as of May 2021) in partnership with the Chinese state-owned firm Guizhou Cloud Big Data Industry in Guizhou – a relatively poor province in southern China –in order to comply with data localisation laws. Similarly, in April 2021, after initial resistance, Tesla announced that it, too, would be building a data centre in China. The data centre, Tesla's first outside of the United States, was recently opened in Shanghai.
That said, it would be very difficult for South Africa to imitate the Chinese model – which according to a number of studies has also had significant costs – for a broad range of reasons. Most important among these, perhaps, is that internal market size matters: according to calculations based on WID.world data, China's aggregate national income (adjusted for differences in purchasing power) is at least 36 times larger than South Africa's national income. This leaves South Africa with far less economic clout of the kind necessary to strongarm some of the world's largest multinationals. There are various other factors that come into play too: for example, South Africa and China's political regimes are completely different, an upshot of which is that the South African government is far less capable of forcing firms – domestic and foreign alike – to submit to its will (the fact that South Africa is a constitutional democracy with incredibly high levels of economic inequality makes it even for difficult for it to successfully do so).
Additionally, the success of data localisation strategies used by the South African government to attract FDI will necessarily depend on a multiplicity of other factors, too, including the extent of the costs imposed by data localisation requirements – especially for South African SMEs, which, should data localisation measures be taken, would be poorly poised to handle what are likely to be significant additional costs for business across a majority of sectors of the economy in the short to medium-term – how firms operating in the digital economy are taxed, the extent of competition between foreign and local firms and the availability of various types of skilled labour. While detailed economic studies on the exact costs of potential data localisation measures in South Africa are currently lacking (the kinds of studies that would be necessary to thoroughly assess the costs and benefits of prospective localisation), what is quite clear is that even if data localisation measures were implemented and resulted in increased FDI, FDI flows are no panacea when it comes to addressing South Africa's economic woes.
This is especially true if one has regard to the fact that the focus of efforts to attract FDI through data localisation laws would predominantly be geared at forcing digital MNEs with considerable bargaining power to invest in data centres. This has a number of ramifications. For example, while data centres tend to be profitable for their owners, they do not ordinarily create a great deal of jobs, especially given that much of what goes on inside the typical data centre is automatable (if not already automated). All things being equal, attracting FDI and adding some jobs would naturally be preferable to nothing. But all things would not be equal: data localisation would, as noted above, mean additional costs for businesses across the economy, including those that are in no way associated with large digital MNEs. Moreover, as other contributions to this colloquium, there are a meaningful number of other considerations when adopting data localisation requirements that extend well beyond FDI and costs. These may entail trade offs which South African policymakers will have to consider very carefully.
Whatever policies are adopted in relation to data localisation in South Africa, then – which policies should have regard to economic inequality as context and should not contribute to its further exacerbation – must be carefully thought through in a holistic fashion; they must also allow for flexibility and closely monitored experimentation aimed at continuously gauging whether the benefits of an adopted policy outweigh the costs, especially given that data localisation requirements are a relatively new development in South Africa. Finally, it should be mentioned that there are other policy avenues for creating a more thriving and inclusive digital economy in South Africa. Done right, a number of these, such as those with the goal of fostering more equal access to quality education and digital infrastructure, will bear fruit with little risk of downsides – these policy goals should accordingly be prioritised.
[1] This essay is largely based on research undertaken for a policy brief produced as part of a Mandela Institute project titled 'Africa's Digital Economy: Protectionism, Development and Democracy'. The policy brief, titled 'Data Localisation in Kenya, Nigeria and South Africa: Regulatory Frameworks, Economic Implications and Foreign Direct Investment', is available here.

World Sight Day (WSD) is an annual day of awareness held on the second Thursday of October, to focus global attention on blindness and vision impairment. World Sight Day 2017 is on 12 October 2017.
WSD is co-ordinated by IAPB under the VISION 2020 Global Initiative. The theme, and certain core materials are generated by IAPB. All events are organised independently by members and supporter organisations.
This year too, IAPB encourages amateur and professional photographers from around the world to take part in an International Photography Competition with theme, 'Make Vision Count'. Send us your pictures with the theme #MakeVisionCount by 12th October 2017.
More information about the competition will go live in the coming days, so do watch this space. IAPB is delighted that Bayer is helping sponsor the 'Make Vision Count' photo competition.
Increasing elderly populations in many countries mean that more people will be at risk of age-related visual impairment.

What's next for tech?
At the close of every year, we take stock of our data, survey our analysts, and project the year ahead in tech.
We do this in not 1, but 3 cornerstone turn-of-year reports: the already available Tech IPO Pipeline, 2020 Game Changers, and the soon-to-be-published 2020 Tech Trends report.
BTW, if you know someone who might like to receive the upcoming report, send them this link to sign up for the newsletter: https://www.cbinsights.com/newsletter.
This year, we'll be covering 14 tech trends that will shape 2020, including:
How quantum computing will enter the commercial mainstream
Why big tech will double down on the healthcare market
How livestreaming transforms e-commerce and shopping culture
The move to "zero-waste" supply chains
A surprise twist in the future of crypto/digital currencies
Rest assured that unlike much of what is produced by the pundit-industrial-complex, our reports explain in depth why we've selected certain categories, companies, and trends for inclusion. They also offer evidence and data in support.
Look for the Trends report on January 16.

THIS WEEK IN DATA
439 unicorns: Fitness subscription service ClassPass, online real estate marketplace Loft, fintech SaaS platform HighRadius, and data analytics co Sisense all reached billion-dollar valuations to become the latest unicorns. The number of global unicorns now stands at 439. See them all on our tracker.
$400M: Quibi, a mobile-first streaming service looking to offer movies cut into 10-minute segments, raised $400M. The company has now brought in a total of $1.4B in disclosed investment, with investors including major entertainment companies like Disney and Warner Bros.
$24B: Xerox said it had raised $24B to finance an attempted hostile takeover of HP. Xerox and HP were both early tech pioneers, with Xerox incubating products like the graphical user interface and the computer mouse. Read their stories, and more, in our report on corporate innovation products that changed the world.
160+ years: One of the biggest dairy companies in the US, Borden Dairy Co., filed for bankruptcy after struggling to meet financial obligations. The company, which is over 160 years old, cited "market challenges facing the dairy industry" as a key driver behind the move. We dive into how industries like dairy and meat are being transformed by startups and emerging tech in this deep-dive report.
~$89B: Electric car company Tesla, headed by tech billionaire Elon Musk, saw its valuation swell to almost $89B, surpassing that of Ford and General Motors combined. The market for electric vehicles (EVs) is heating up, with even personal electronics maker Sony announcing a concept EV this week. We dig into which companies are vying for a piece of the EV market in our report on the race for the electric car.
360 employees: Pizza delivery startup Zume will lay off 360 employees and refocus its business on food packaging. The company, which raised $375M from SoftBank in 2018, previously attracted attention for using robots to make pizzas that were then baked en-route to customers.
$155M: Sweden-based telehealth startup KRY raised a $155M mega-round. Interest in telehealth is gaining steam as providers look to digitize more aspects of healthcare. Take a look at more emerging healthcare trends in our latest global healthcare report.
700 people: Only around 700 people speak Seke, with almost 7% of them living in the same Brooklyn building, according to The New York Times. The rare language comes from Nepal, where it is reportedly spoken in just 5 villages.
200 mph: Uber and Hyundai announced a partnership to develop a flying taxi service. Hyundai said that its concept vehicle would be able to ferry passengers around at speeds of up to 200 mph. Auto incumbents like Hyundai aren't the only ones going after the space. Clients can see 8 startups looking to build flying cars here.
26,000 lives: A study published in Nature Sustainability found that reduced air pollution, attributed to a shift from coal to gas in the US, saved over 26,000 lives between 2005 and 2016. While the full effects of air pollution are still being understood, another study published this month suggested that air filters fitted to classrooms significantly increased test scores. From sustainable shippers, to carbon capture, to next-gen nuclear energy, we highlight startups and emerging tech that could help reduce air pollution in our 2020 report on game changing startups.
This year, Olympic athletes will have a new kind of accommodation in the Athletes Village: cardboard beds.
Takashi Kitajima, the general manager of the Village, says that the bed frames are stronger than wood and can hold up to 440 lbs — though it should be noted that they may break in the event of post-medal-winning celebratory jumping.
The idea came about as the organizing committee was considering opportunities to use recyclable items. After the Olympic games conclude, the bed frames will be used to make paper products.

Q: Cart page displays the price and amount as zero regardless of price entered The site I am currently working on has a pay your price feature that allows customers to enter the amount they wish to pay for rent and such. Once they enter the amount and some additional information they click the add to cart button and it directs them to the cart page. On this page however, the price and amount are zero regardless of amount that they entered. Any insight or advise into the cause and solution of this issue would be greatly appreciated. For reference site is stlcitywide.com (make a payment feature)
additional info:
after additional troubleshooting it appears to be an issue with the regular price. Whatever the regular price is defined as on the product page as an admin, that is the price the cart will display, and if no price is defined then the cart is empty. So it seems the cart is only looking for the regular price and is not seeing the minimum or user inputted value.

A: That's maybe not really the right anwser, but the way to test if prices are pulled into the cart and the way to recalculate cart totals.
add_action('template_redirect', 'test_cart_values');

function test_cart_values(){
    $cart_items = WC()->cart->get_cart();
    if(is_cart() || is_checkout() ){
        var_dump($cart);
        foreach($cart_items as $item){
            if($item['line_subtotal'] == '' or $item['line_subtotal'] == 0){
                $calculate_once_again = true;
            }
        }
        if($calculate_once_again == true){
            WC()->cart->calculate_totals();
        }
    }
}

Note that you can get the cart from session in an other way.
Remove var_dump() if you are on a production server.
Hope it helps

Prior to the publication of the Slavonic Dances, Op. 46, Dvořák was a relatively unknown composer.
The Slavonic Dances are a series of 16 orchestral pieces composed by Antonín Dvořák in 1878 and 1886 and published in two sets as Op. 46 and Op. 72 respectively. Originally written for piano four hands, the Slavonic Dances were inspired by Johannes Brahms's own Hungarian Dances and were orchestrated at the request of Dvořák's publisher soon after composition. Both versions were published within the year, and quickly established Dvořák's international reputation.
The Kat Trio performed Slavonic Dance on December 8, 2013 at Saint Wenceslaus Catholic Church, Spillville, Iowa.

I was itching for something sweet with peanut butter and I came across this Sweet Peanut Butter Bread recipe from Reeni of Cinnamon Spice & Everything Nice. This recipe was adapted to remedy my peanut butter craving. Oh, and I was also craving something with chocolate as well. This bread was perfectly delicious. Dense, peanut butter-y and chocolate-y. And one slice will do ya. I tried having multiple slices and got sick from it, ha! So don't get overly greedy like I did. You won't be able to enjoy it. And trust me, you'll want to savor every bite. Happy Wednesday!
Using a stand or electric mixer (or mix by hand) cream butter and sugars. Add peanut butter then egg and vanilla. Continue to beat until combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl. Then add yogurt and milk and beat until smooth and creamy. Add flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Mix until just moistened. Batter will be thick. Fold in chocolate chips.
Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly with a spatula. Sprinkle the extra chocolate chips on top. Bake for 55-60 minutes or until toothpick/tester inserted into the center comes out with a few crumbs attached. Let the bread cool completely before cutting into the pan.
Note: You might want to loosely tent the bread with aluminum foil 40-45 minutes into baking, as it can brown quickly.
I made this lusciously tasty pb chocolate chip bread & it was truly superb!!!! Thanks again!
Beautiful recipe, picture and composition. It's all perfect here!

Forgive me if this has already been asked, but I couldn't find it if it has.
I was recently told that I have Celiacs, and I'm wondering what flavors I can have and which I can't. All I could find out is that both "natural" and "artifical" flavors could have gluten in them. It seems that everything has one or the other in them!
Ghiradelli flavored coffees are free of gluten. We drank them for the past week. No problems here. The chocolate raspberry coffee is my favorite.
What about coffees that I would get other places, for example, Dunn Brothers?
Many of the drinks at Starbucks are Gluten Free. You just need to call them and they'll give you a list. I get lattes with their flavored syrups ALL th Time. Enjoy!!!!
Thanks for contacting Folgers, Vincent.
Our coffees are 100% pure coffee. Since coffee has no nutritional value, there's no significant amount of calories, protein, carbohydrates, fat, sodium, or potassium. In fact, one serving of brewed coffee contains less than 5 calories. There is no gluten at all in any Folgers version.
We use natural and artificial flavorings in our flavored Ground and Whole Bean versions. You'll get a smooth coffee taste, with just a hint of flavor. The best part is that the flavorings don't affect the nutritional content of the coffee; there are no additional calories, carbohydrates, alcohol or sugars.
If you prefer decaf coffee, it might help to know we only use pure water and natural ingredients for decaffeination. So, you can have all of the flavor, without all the caffeine!
I opt to make my own plain at home usually, and love nestle's (by kraft) liquid flavored creamers! they are great and it says right on the label 'gluten free'! (on the back of the bottle in the green box). Another star for kraft foods! I've also seen them in boxes of the mini size (like you get at the diner) in some stores, that don't require refrigeration. So you can easily take them with you to add to plain coffee wherever you are!
I am forever in your debt, as well as the debt of all the other people who kindly replyed to my post.
Verdict is still out on some others that I have emails and calls into.
Not sure where u are from but Dunkin Donuts coffees are gluten-free, not the lattes though!
If there's a particular brand you like you should call and check to make sure, but the vast majority of flavored coffees are gluten-free. The main ones you have to watch out for are the ones at shops that they add non-coffee ingredients to.
What does the lattes at D&D have in them. I've been drinking them for a while!!
Yeehaaa! This was my favorite at-home flavored coffee, and I had not found any info on it so I had been avoiding it. Happy Days!
MILLSTONE COFFEE IS NOT TRUTHFUL CO.
I WOULD LIKE TO SHARE MY EXPERIENCE -- Today I called the number I listed above. I got into a huge fight today with Millstone coffee company for not disclosing their ARTIFICALLY FLAVORED ingredients in the Raspberry 'N' Cream coffee. First let me say they wouldn't connect me with the guy in charge. Over and over I demanded! And asked who owned Millstone it is Procter & Gamble -- they also make FOLGERS COFFEE.
The guy was a real JERK he told me the artifically flavored ingredients are a secret!
I explained he might not be awared of the new FDA labeling requirement that for people with serious food allergies (like myself) they need to tell us everything they put in their products. He said "OH NO WE DON'T! -- They are our trade secrets!" I said "HA! I'll just report you to the FDA for not complying." He said again "No problem." I told him it [would be a huge problem] when I have a seizure from something I am allergic to and I end up in the hospital I will sure SUE them for not telling me when I asked. He said "No problem!"
I asked for the CEO's name as well as his, he wouldn't give me his bosses name. He said he was the stupid-visor of the customer service. The more I pushed he said I had to get a letter from my doctor to get their trade secrets. I told him why should I have to pay my doc $200 for an office visit then another $200 for him to write a letter requesting that information, then another $200 office visit for the doctor to explain it to me, all for a $1.00 pack of coffee?
Then he said you need to think of us as manufactures there are dishonest people out there and you could be our competition and stealing our secrets. I asked him does he know what its like to have a seizure? He said no problem.
Whats the big deal telling the consumer?
That's okay -- I'm going to write to the FDA and report to them my experience. I posted the FDA info in this thread here.
We must hold the food manufactuers responsible for what is making us sick.
The can has a blue label, white letters, with two old guys in a goldish logo that has a red ribbon with the words 'GOOD VALUE SINCE 1862'. It might be cheap but NOT GOOD for US!
I called the company today. I had a funny feeling it was NOT pure coffee. And I was right it has 1 gram of SOY PROTEIN. So if you are like me and others that have problems with SOY you might want to avoid this product. The labeling doesn't comply with the new FDA rules or this is old before the new laws.
Think twice and call the company and demand answers. Because this could be why you aren't getting better, hidden SOY is bad.
do you know if the white hot chocolate is okay? I just got diagnosed with this and it feels like all my favorite foods are gone. I love the white hot chocolate with a little bit of raspberry syrup, but a lot of times when I ask restaurants if things are wheat or gluten free they give me the wrong answer. I ran into that problem with Chili's chips and I was in pain for over a week.
We use natural and artificial flavorings in our flavored Ground and Whole Bean versions.
They put NATURAL INGREDIENTS in the decafe and flavored ground and whole bean coffees...that means don't trust those dirty little words NATURAL INGREDIENTS Beware something is hidden, it could be all sorts of things from soy to carmel or their secret???
Does anyone know if this is gluten free. I'm still in the healing stage so i wouldn't know if it's affecting me. Because i'm always sick anyway.
Flavored Coffee is a no no.
Thanks for this thread, you guys, and for all the work you've done. I love coffee, but have avoided it altogether because I've been afraid of getting glutened. I love starbucks, but again, too scared to try it. Thanks again --you guys are great. And I WILL write to that CEO -- and ask him why his company chooses to endanger the health of his consumers by refusing to disclose potentially harmful ingredients to persons with either allergies or intolerance to particular ingredients. Basically, my intent is to make him feel like dirt, but in a really nice, southern way!
Anyone have any secrets how to flavor their coffee the natural way?
I have been making my flavored coffee from scratch. What I have been doing is adding things to the coffee grounds before I brew the coffee.
Like I have been adding a few (3 or 4) of the little star anise to it. You can use fennel too. Its so so good. You can use cin·na·mon too. And I add a cap full of vanilla extract flavoring to a cup it's really good too. Also I have been taking frozen raspberries, or blueberries and cooking them just a bit in the microwave, then adding them to the coffee grinds to be brewed in the coffee maker.
Anyone else flavoring their coffee this way?
wait, what? soy is bad for us? i was just wondering where you are getting your information from. i have never experienced any symptoms from soy. secondary intolerences or allergies don't necessarily have to develop.
If you get into roasting your own coffee (like in the oven) you can add anise seeds, vanilla beans, cinnamon sticks, and whatever else to the bean batch while they're roasting. I never thought about just putting flavoring stuff into the filter with the coffee, though, good idea! I wish I could do coffee again, my tummy doesn't like it! I can drink the stuff cold brewed in a Toddy, but even too much of that makes my tummy hurt.
If you would like to read the book "dangerous grains" or the "paleo diet" it is clear SOY is bad. And yes, they both write many of us celiacs develop secondary food intolerces and allergeies. There is plenty of pro-and-con about it, some people are in denial (I understand why). You can search this site for plenty of thread on this subject.
I'm a newbie here. I've been diagnosed with Celiac Disease for just over three years.

<i>Hangover</i> Stars Want More Cash For Third Movie in Franchise
in Movies, Movie News
Everyone's looking for something a little different from The Hangover 3: Writer Craig Mazin and Todd Philips are hoping to abandon the formula established in the previous films, Warner Bros. is looking to cash in on the franchise, and stars Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms and Zach Galifianakis are wanting to pull in even bigger paychecks.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the three leads are asking for a cool $15 million each this time around, a huge step up from the less-than-a-million they made for the first Hangover and the $5 million for the second. All three are represented by the same firm and are sticking to their guns. Insiders say the deal will happen, which doesn't come as much of a surprise considering how much money these films have made for Warner Bros.

International financial services provider Fidelity National Information Services agreed on Monday to purchase payment processing company Worldpay for $34 billion, making it the biggest deal thus far in a rapidly-expanding space that could put fintech exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in play.
ETFs to look at in the growing fintech space include the Global X FinTech ETF (NasdaqGM: FINX) and the ARK Fintech Innovation ETF (NYSEArca: ARKF). Both ETFs are up year-to-date–FINX is up 22 percent and ARKF is up 5 percent.
"Powered by innovations within mobile, artificial intelligence, and blockchain technology, companies within fintech are working to disintermediate or bypass incumbent financial players and challenge traditional institutions by offering new solutions that are better, cheaper, faster, and more novel and secure," stated ARK's Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Catherine Wood.
"Fintech reimagines the generation, transfer, and storage of value in today's increasingly digital economy, and its impact will extend across every industry. Through facilitating peer-to-peer transfers, gifting, intermediary products, and other non-GDP related economic activity, the companies in ARKF, in our view, will touch more than the $80 trillion in GDP today," Wood added.
Contactless payment systems typically fly under the radar, but more popular applications like Apple Pay are drawing more attention to the industry. Prior to the FIS purchase, Fiserv agreed to buy payment processor First Data for about $22 billion earlier this year.
The purchase of Worldpay would give FIS a large footprint in the e-commerce market given that the former is responsible for facilitating 40 billion transactions per year.
"Scale matters in our rapidly changing industry," said Gary Norcross, FIS's chairman and chief executive in a statement.
Will the burgeoning fintech space cause cyclical sectors to overtake defensive sectors?
