Ida Nilsson wins Transvulcania Ultra. AGAIN.
By Dave Colley | 1 Minute Read
Ida, congrats on retaining your title! It looked like an awesome effort. You ran out hard from the start, taking the lead early. Was that your plan all along?
I actually just ran at a comfortable pace that I felt I could stick to for the whole race and it just happened that that got me out in front!
You fell over at one point, what happened?
It was quite late in the race, after about 62 km. I was in the middle of an aid station and I wasn't paying attention to the ground because there were a lot of people cheering me on. Very clumsy of me!☺I had to run slower after that as my knee was really hurting. I couldn't walk well after the race as the knee ended up with five stitches but the other leg felt fresh and obviously I was just excited to win!
How did you keep your energy levels topped up and stay hydrated?
I drank about 1.5L of Precision Hydration 1000 over the course of the race to stay hydrated and then drank another 1.5L or so of the isotonic sports drink available at the aid stations, for energy purposes on top of my gels! I probably also had about 0.5L of plain water over the 8 hours I was out there.
Why do you think you manage to do so well in Transvulcania?
I had been training really well in the run up to the race and the altitude training I did right before also helped. I also really like the ambience of the race and definitely got energy from that on both occasions!
If you could give one piece of advice to someone racing Transvulcania next year, what would it be?
Definitely train for some long downhills, make sure you have what you need to start and stay properly hydrated, and try do some training in a warmer climate (if, like me, you spend most of the year in colder places!).
You're running the Mont Black Marathon next month, what's your goal there? What are you looking forward to the most about that event?
It's going to be a really competitive race with a lot of fast women, so it's going to be really tough, but fun as well of course! I always try to win, but a podium would be a good result for me as well.
Our money's on you Ida...

Natalie Novosel scored 20 points to lead five players in double figures, and No. 18 Notre Dame beat Butler 85-54 on Sunday in the WBAC Tournament in South Bend Ind.
Novosel, the tournament MVP who starred at Lexington Catholic, scored the first five points of the second half for Notre Dame (5-2), opening up a 20-point lead with a breakaway layup and three-pointer from the corner.
Brittany Mallory hit threes on consecutive possessions later in the half, and Kayla McBride made a slashing reverse layup with 12:36 remaining to give the Irish a 24-point lead.
"I thought Natalie Novosel had just a fantastic three-day tournament," Notre Dame Coach Muffet McGraw said. "She just shot the ball extremely well and got to the foul line. She basically did everything we asked on offense. ... Butler had a lot of trouble containing her, and she took advantage of it."
The Huskies need four more wins to tie the Division I record set by UCLA's men in the early 1970s. They are on course to get their 88th straight win on Dec. 19 against Ohio State in New York, and their 89th two days later in Hartford against Florida State.
No. 2 Baylor 106, SE Louisiana 41: Brittney Griner stayed in the game long enough for host Baylor to get one more rebound. That's all she needed for her fourth career triple-double. Griner had 28 points, 10 rebounds and 10 blocked shots despite playing only 21 minutes.
"She was getting ready to come out and they told me she needed another rebound, so I let her stay another 40 seconds or whatever it was," Coach Kim Mulkey said. "She's a once-in-a-lifetime player. You enjoy her while you have her. You don't take her for granted."
When Griner left the game for good with 13:54 left, the 6-foot-8 sophomore had outscored the previously undefeated Lions 28-22 on her own. Baylor (7-1) led 78-22 by then.
"We knew she was probably going to get what she got," Southeastern Louisiana Coach Lori Davis Jones said. "Our biggest thing is don't let her dunk on you."
Transylvania 82, Centre 62: Holly Milburn, a Scott County graduate, hit nine of 14 shots and scored 21 points to lead Transylvania to a win at home. Olivia Akridge (Lyon County) added 19 points and Shayla Black had seven points, eight assists and eight rebounds.

Coastal Carolina 78, Coker 25: Katelyn Conner (Ashland Blazer) came off the bench to score nine points and grab nine rebounds in 13 minutes of play for Coastal Carolina.
Morehead State 83, Southern Illinois-Edwardsville 64: Demonte Harper scored 35 points and Kenneth Faried had 25 points and 20 rebounds to lead Morehead State to a win in Edwardsville, Ill.
Harper made 12 of his 20 shot attempts, including 4-of-6 from three-point range, for the Eagles (3-3). Faried had half of Morehead State's 40 rebounds and went 7-for-11 from the field and 11-for-14 from the free-throw line.
South Laurel graduate Ty Proffitt had eight assists for the Eagles, who ended a three-game losing streak.
Oklahoma St. 66, Murray St. 49: Keiton Page scored a career-high 29 points to lead Oklahoma State past Murray State in the 76 Classic in Anahaim, Calif. Page made 10 of 13 shots, including going 4-for-5 on three-pointers, for the Cowboys (5-1). Ivan Aska scored 10 points for the Racers (3-3).
No. 2 Michigan St. 73, Tennessee Tech 55: Durrell Summers scored 21 points, and Michigan State warmed up for its showdown with top-ranked Duke with a win over visiting Tennessee Tech.
No. 25 North Carolina 74, College of Charleston 69: John Henson scored a career-high 19 points and ignited the decisive second-half run to help host North Carolina win. Henson also had seven rebounds and two blocked shots for the Tar Heels (4-2), who rallied from a five-point deficit midway through the second half.
No. 16 Florida 55, Florida St 51: Kenny Boynton scored 14 points and Erik Murphy added 10, including a decisive late field goal, as Florida (5-1) held off host Florida State's late rally. Michael Snaer's fifth three-pointer of the game cut Florida's lead to 53-51 with 51 seconds left before Murphy's putback with 16 seconds left.
Georgia 61, Manhattan 58: Trey Thompkins had 18 points and eight rebounds, Gerald Robinson scored 13 and Georgia rallied to beat Manhattan in the consolation bracket of the Old Spice Classic in Lake Buena Vista, Fla.
LSU 80, South Alabama 65: Armed by a strong first-half shooting performance, LSU downed South Alabama in the Coors Classic in Mobile, Ala. The Tigers (5-2) made six of their first seven shots, including a pair of three-pointers, and finished the first half making 16 of 24 shots and 10 of 13 three-pointers.
Stanford 81, DePaul 74 (OT): Jeremy Green scored 19 points and Stanford rallied to beat DePaul in the 76 Classic in Anaheim, Calif. Green collapsed after the game and received attention from paramedics.
"As Jeremy was leaving the court following the game, he began to experience some dizziness and stomach pain due to exhaustion," Stanford's sports information department said in statement. "After receiving treatment at the arena, Jeremy was then transported to a local hospital for further treatment. Jeremy is currently in stable condition, and expected to travel back with the team later (Sunday)."
Penn St. 70, Furman 49: Jeff Brooks (Doss) was 3-for-4 from three-point range and scored 13 points for the host Nittany Lions.

Q: Convergence both in $L^p$ and $L^q$ I am trying to understand convergence in Lp spaces a little bit better.
If we have $p, q \in [1, \infty]$ and a sequence of functions $(f_n)_{n\in\mathbb{N}} \subset L^p(\mathbb{R}^d) \;\cap\; L^q(\mathbb{R}^d)$ with

*

*$\Vert f_n - f \Vert_p \rightarrow 0$ for some $f \in L^p$ and

*$\Vert f_n - g \Vert_q \rightarrow 0$ for some $g \in L^q$.

Is it then true that $f = g$ almost everywhere?
I can't think of a good counter example or a proof.

A: Recall that if $f_n \to f$ in $L^p$  then there is a subsequence along which $f_{n_k} \to f$ almost everywhere. But if $f_n \to f$ in $L^q$ then $f_{n_k} \to f$ in $L^q$ too, and by the same reasoning there is a further subsequence converging to $g$ almost everywhere. Thus $f=g$ almost everywhere.

A: If you don't mind a powerful theorem, here is a proof using Vitali's convergence theorem. This states that the convergence $f_n\to f$ in $L^p$ is equivalent to three conditions. To show that $f_n\to g$ in $L^p$, we only make reference to $g$ in (i) of the theorem (in the link), and then the other two are given already by $f_n\to f$ in $L^p$. Since $g\in L^p$ already, we have that $f_n\to g$ in $L^p$. Then, we can conclude by almost everywhere uniqueness of $L^p$ limits.

Hexagon Academy
About our repertoire
Programs 2018-2019
Information and listen
Click here for the programs 2019-2020
No musical archive is safe for the six members of the Hexagon Ensemble. The ensemble searches all over the world for little known or forgotten repertoire. During this quest it has amassed a unique catalogue that includes over 4000 works: little known works from famous composers, but also pieces by unknown ones. Programs with remarkable repertoire, clear themes and appealing titles typify the Hexagon Ensemble.
The quintets of Mozart and Bethoven as well as the Sextuor by Poulenc are the top 3 of the Hexagon Ensemble's core repertoire. Lesser known works which the Hexagon Ensemble has successfully shed light on include Joseph Jongens' Rhapsody, Paul Juon's Divertimento and the Quartet on Turkmen Themes by Sergei Vasilenko.
In both concert as well as CD programs, the Hexagon Ensemble aspires to the perfect balance between forgotten and well-known works: between surprise and recognition. Various composers continue to write works for the Hexagon Ensemble. Hans Kox composed his Achilles Sextet for the ensemble and the American composer Judith Shatin wrote her Ockeghem Variations for them. In 2012, Micha Hamel and Kees Olthuis both wrote works especially for the Hexagon Ensemble.
Carol Linssen and Christine Ewert in The lady Macbeth from the Mtsensk district
Typically Hexagon
Hexagon's ambition is evident in its regular performances, but is expressed even more clearly in the special, multidisciplinary productions that the ensemble performed over the past years. These include Lady Macbeth from the Mtsensk District, The Imagination, La Cenerentola, Boris Godunov and the Holland Festival production The Red Kimono.
Press and audiences in the Netherlands and Russia have been extremely enthusiastic about the ensemble's adaption of Mussorgsky's Paintings at an Exhibition titled The Imagination. As part of this project, amateur painters made works inspired by the themes of this well-renowned piece of music. During the performance, the paintings made by the amateur artists are being projected above the audience, which creates a uniquely powerful synergy between music and visual arts as well as the musicians and the artists. The artists' works are also exhibited outside the concerts halls.
The Hexagon Ensemble adapted Rossini's opera La Cenerentola such that it has become a modern, emancipated family program centered around an autonomous and tough Cinderella. Not only the narrator and the actors, but also the audience and the musicians are given a role in the performance and prove to wield their influence…
Both this project as well as the The Imagination are 'typically Hexagon' and appeal to the eyes, ears and the spirits of young and old. This places them at the heart of our artistic ambition and our strategy to appeal to a broad and diverse audience. In 2016, the family program Diary of a Cello premiered to continue this trend.

Grubhub Driver Who Allegedly Ran Over Restaurant Worker Turns Himself In
The driver supposedly didn't want to practice social distancing
by Naomi Waxman May 18, 2020, 12:08pm CDT
Share All sharing options for: Grubhub Driver Who Allegedly Ran Over Restaurant Worker Turns Himself In
Ms. T's Southern Fried Chicken in Lakeview.
Two days after a video showed a restaurant worker seriously injured after a car — allegedly driven by a Grubhub courier — struck her, a "person of interest" has turned himself in to police, according to the Sun-Times and multiple other media reports. The man was not immediately charged.
The incident occurred at about 6 p.m. Friday outside Ms. T's Southern Fried Chicken, 3343 N. Broadway Street. Ms. T's owner Angenita Tanner tells reporters that the exchange began around an hour earlier when she asked a Grubhub delivery driver to wait outside the restaurant in an effort to maintain social distancing. He refused, according to Tanner, before he began kicking the door and returning to his car.
Tanner and her daughter Bijan Early then called police and followed the driver outside to prevent him from leaving, the Sun-Times reported. A witness told Block Club Chicago that he estimates the car dragged Early up to 40 feet and ran over her with both ends of the car. That resulted in a broken pelvis, arms, and legs, according to the victim's mother. Paramedics took her to Advocate Illinois Masonic Medical Center where she underwent surgery.
A video of a car running over a woman in Lakeview.
A witness provided Tanner with a video of the incident that is now circulating online. In the recording, Early can be heard talking to the driver: "You just kicked our door," she says. "This is too much disrespect that we get on a day-to-day. We're just trying to be essential workers and feed people. This is ridiculous." With her back to the car, seconds later the Toyota Prius lurches forward, sending Early up onto the car's hood, and then down onto the ground.
Grubhub has released a statement that the company is cooperating with police and has terminated the driver's contract. According to the company, he passed a background check and didn't have a history of misconduct. Lakeview East Chamber of Commerce plans to help coordinate a fundraiser with Tanner and her family.
Tanner first opened Ms. T's in 2016. She previously operated a location of Chicago's famed Harold's Chicken before leaving to run her own restaurant. The menu highlights fried fish and chicken, including livers and gizzards, in buckets, dinners, and combos. And there's also mild sauce.
Tensions are running high for a number of third-party food delivery companies in Chicago, as the city moves to require them to increase transparency by providing customers itemized receipts that show all charges, and considers capping delivery fees for restaurants at 5 percent. In early April, Chicago saw another violent incident that involved a Caviar delivery driver who allegedly assaulted a 67-year-old Rogers Park man.

Major Mahama was murdered by the people of Denkyira Obuasi after he was mistaken for an armed robber. Major Mahama's death took the country by storm as Ghanaians could not fathom why human beings could subject their fellow human being to such treatment.
Speaking at a durbar as part of his six days visit to the Central and Western Regions, President Akufo-Addo indicated that he is hurt by the actions of the youth of Major Mahama.
The President indicated that in the era of democracy, such violent and gruesome acts must not he entertained and warned that the act should be the last time such an incident to happen in the area or anywhere in Ghana.
He indicated that he has ordered for investigations into the matter and has promised to bring all culprits of the barbaric act to book to serve as a deterrent to others.
He, however, promised of an equitable distribution of the Nation's resources to all Ghanaians including the people of Denkyira Obuasi.

5 bedrooms, 2 1/2 baths, sleeps 13, great for groups & families!
Looking for the perfect summer getaway for your group in southern Vermont's lakes region? The Brook House at Echo Lake – a spacious, non-smoking, five-bedroom retreat with hot tub, Jacuzzi bath and loads of amenities – is perfect for large families, reunions or groups of friends! The house's proximity to Echo Lake Inn (a two-minute walk) makes it a great place for family and friends to stay during a wedding weekend.
The house sleeps 13 (including two sofabeds). Enjoy an exhilarating day swimming, kayaking, fishing, hiking, golfing or bike riding, then gather in the hot tub on the back deck that overlooks state forest land and listen to the babbling brook. Enjoy the fireplace, hot tub, outdoor fire pit, horseshoes, volleyball and more. The large yard provides a great playground for your group.
The Brook House – actually "Little Brook House at Echo Lake" – is not little! It gets its name because Little Brook flows just behind it. Hike three miles up 2,320-foot Tiny Mountain, and you'll find Tiny Pond, which makes a great day hike. Look for the moose who live up there!
The house has an interesting history – it actually started as a chicken coop over 150 years ago! During the 20th century, it was built upward and outward, so that today it's a spacious, comfortable home perfect for large families, reunions or groups of friends. Some of the original wood remains around the fireplace, and the built-in shelves limit the size of the flat screen TV in the living room, but you should enjoy the rustic ambience.
Little Brook House is a five-minute walk from Echo Lake, and the Black River is across the street – both the lake and the river offer excellent fishing. Of course it's fun to splash in the creek out back!
Relax in the Adirondack chairs on the front porch on lazy summer days, or gather in the hot tub on the back deck that overlooks state forest land listen to the babbling brook. Kids love to play in the creek, hike in the back woods (hundreds of acres with a series of waterfalls and gorges), play volleyball, horseshoes, bocce or croquet, ride the tire swing, kick a ball around the expansive lawn, and catch snakes and salamanders. Cross the street to the Black River and catch a few fish. Rent a boat or paddleboard at the store across the street and they'll take you to the lake of your choice!
9% VT lodging tax, and $200 cleaning and hot tub fee will be added to total rent.
We're a family of nature lovers -- skiing in the winter; boating, hiking, running and biking in the summer! We are currently traveling the world in retirement. Our oldest is going to college in England and our youngest plans to attend Champlain College in Burlington, VT. We get to Vermont whenever we can!
We love its rich history -- and the feeling of getting away from it all combined with the community feel of being located at the edge of the tiny village of Tyson, at the northern tip of Ludlow, with the convenience of the Village Store just across the street!
The creek out back! The day hike from the house up Little Brook to Tiny Pond -- look for the moose that resides there! The Country Store across the street and its friendly owner, Spanky.
Downtown Ludlow is five miles away.
The house is in the Green Mountains and there is hiking out the door.
At the edge of the wood, at the edge of the tiny village of Tyson, but four miles form Okemo Mountain Resort and five from downtown Ludlow.
The house is at the edge of the tiny village of Tyson, with a little country store across the street.
Echo Lake is a quarter mile away, with use of a two-person kayak.
There is a creek right behind the house. Echo Lake is a quarter mile away. and the Black River is across the street.
4 miles from Okemo and 11 from Killlington Skyeship! XC nearby as well.
Our two-person kayak is at the dock of a nearby Inn, a five minute walk from the house. Fishing in the Black River is across the street; the country store sells licenses, worms and tackle.
In central Vermont, 2 1/2 hours from Boston and just four from NYC, there is a place where the mountains are the greenest of green and a string of pristine lakes is the bluest of blue. The fish are always biting in the summer; feathery flakes fall on red-gold leaves in October; and flowers burst into a jumble of audacious color in May. The only thing that beats taking a kayak out on a misty summer morning is screaming down a ski slope after a fresh snowfall. In winter the snow is deep and fluffy from December well into April -- perfect for skiing! With 8 ski areas within 40 miles, you have plenty to choose from.
All around you, rolling fields of golden fescue surround bent grass tees and fairways. In the distance, Vermont's Green Mountains provide a striking backdrop. These breathtaking views and access to championship heath land golf are yours at the Okemo Valley Golf Club in Ludlow.
Less than four miles down the road, Okemo Mountain Resort's Jackson Gore base lodge offers a heady assortment of trails from easy to expert. This is a great cruising mountain that families love, but a couple of the double-diamonds will put even experts to shame. Snowboarders will love the terrain parks, quarter pipe and two Super Pipes!
Killington Resort stretches across seven mountains with 200 trails and 33 lifts.

Home Opinion Ango Abdullahi's robe of many colours
Ango Abdullahi's robe of many colours
By Bala Kuta
Professor Ango Abdullahi is an amusing character at his octogenarian age. He is a Northern varsity don, an intellectual, administrator and former minister in Nigeria, whose name should ordinarily strike profound memories. But in his latter days in life, he has proven to be a negation of whatever an elder should represent.
He is loquacious and consistently parrots too generously. He talks like a dunce in leadership. At 82 years or so, one expects to see a calm and very calculated elder statesman. But he loathes everything associated with respect.
Those who know Ango Abdullahi, the former Vice-Chancellor of Ahmadu Bello University, (ABU) Zaria closely should whisper into his ears that he is over-parroting and, in the process, denigrating himself. An academic anywhere is a tranquil person, who speaks wisdom and knowledge, as against sentiments.
Academics strive to see a better society for the benefit of all. And when he is prompted by any burning public issue to make suggestions, his panaceas are religiously trusted as a remedy to a public affliction. Ango Abdullahi defends herdsmen atrocities against Nigerians but thinks President Muhammadu Buhari should berth peace from heaven in Nigeria.
When commentators or public affairs analysts postulate that some Northern elders are behind insecurity in the North and other parts of the country, it sounds strange to some ears. But those who doubt it should not look far to find answers. With Ango Abdullahi's public utterances, it's clear to discerning minds that he is one of the shadows behind insecurity in the North.
Nowhere in the entire globe where an intellectual is wasted, even when it is reasonably assumed that he has reached the age of senility. Professors emeritus are even more respected because of their treasure of knowledge. They are considered reservoirs of wisdom, decency and uprightness, virtues which endear society to them in veneration.
Unfortunately, Prof. Ango Abdullahi embodies the opposite of everything sane or these sound virtues. He served as Minister under the administration of former President Olusegun Obasanjo and, so sees nothing wrong with that administration. He will not tell Nigerians who introduced Boko Haram into the country and nourished it because he served as Obasanjo's minister. He has never criticized that administration which laid the foundation of the national malaises bedevilling the country now.
But President Buhari is a bad and incompetent leader in the estimation of Ango Abdullahi and his ilk because he is not patronized with an appointment. Therefore, President Buhari must be rubbished on whatever efforts he is making in correcting the ills, which a government, Ango served dutifully introduced in the system or polity.
The game of politics is played in Nigeria differently and very oddly. Only in Nigeria one plus one cannot always be two. One must look farther and search deeper to find answers to ordinarily very easy puzzles.
This country is populated by too many people who have no scruples. Do not mind the age, experience or exposure. Even the elderly, focus their lenses only beneath the abdomen alone. Plead with these elders to gaze at the open space, to see the scenic beauty of the environment and perhaps, grasp the alternative messages conveyed by even the tantalizing breeze is like the proverbial forcing of a camel to pass through the eye of a needle.
Prof. Ango Abdullahi is a prominent Northern son and intellectual, no doubt. Ango leads a group of eminent Northerners and elder statemen under the aegis of Northern Elders Forum (NEF). But it's obvious Prof. Ango Abdullahi has hijacked the association and runs it in the fashion of dictators.
He is a sole administrator of NEF. It's been ages Nigerians read any public press statement from NEF on any decision concerning national issues. Ango Abdullahi thinks alone; takes the decisions solely and talks alone. Even at that miniature level of leadership, Ango Abdullahi has so mindlessly abused the etiquette; yet has the guts to frequently criticize the leader of an entire nation.
Ango Abdullahi has usurped the thinking of every Northern elder in that forum, so he speaks on their behest. Ask him when last, the group held a meeting, he won't remember. It's doubtful if Ango Abdullahi can still count who and who are still members of this otherwise revered association.
He functions alone; thinks and initiates action for every member of the association. What baffles more is his effrontery to question the government of President Buhari on poverty in the North particularly and pretend in sycophantic ululations to be also concerned about my entire Nigeria.
In his region, the North and despite occupying a vintage position, as leader of an assemblage of Northern elders under the umbrella of NEF, he has done nothing to alleviate the poverty of his people. He has no plan; no agenda or thought about it.
It's certain that Ango Abdullahi is barren of his basic responsibility for his immediate constituency, as a Northern elder. Since he assumed leadership of NEF what poverty alleviation agenda and schemes has he contemplated? None till tomorrow. Yet, he commandeered the position of chair of NEF. Give someone else that position, he would spring surprises for the benefit of the people.
Ango has forgotten that the people who should know their problems better and contrive ways of solving it are the Northern elders in NEF. The association should not just be an assemblage of respected personalities, but it should be a platform for solving some of these problems. Ango, have you ever contemplated it? This former minister lacks the capacity to galvanize the forces at his disposal for the benefit of his people.
Talk is cheap; criticisms of those in leadership easier. But when the same people assume lesser responsibilities at lower rungs, they fail woefully, as evident with Ando Abdullahi. Prof sir, you cannot continue to live in self-denial. If the Northern region is poor, with almajiris everywhere, its also your responsibility at this octogenarian age to strive to improve the situation. The North is a community which gave birth to you, fed, nourished and gave you the global fame in academics.
NEF as a forum, chaired by a sensible intellectual would have used to it to prod Northern elders to use their wealth in assisting the upcoming generation of the North to understand the meaning of existence in a region and county which breathe life into them. Insecurity in the North is fueled by poverty.
Had the likes of Ango performed their responsibility as expected, poverty in the North would have been reduced and violent sects would not have had access to idle youths to recruit into their fold. The mindless killings in the North would STOP or at least be reduced! Leadership does not start and end with the person wearing the crown of a nation, community or a particular enclave alone.
Ango Abdullahi in fairness to you, NEF ended with the leadership of a passionate nationalist, detribalized Nigerian and international elder statesman, Alhaji Maitama Sule. If only the dead could rise, Sule, NEF's pioneer chairman would have wept at your personalization of NEF. You are just leading a band of elders in your family and local government, but certainly, not the North.
Today, Ango presents himself as a contradictory personality and a talkative. That's not the philosophy behind the formation of NEF. If President Buhari is not a good leader as admitted by Ango's recent interviews published by several media platforms; it's also difficult to discern or even understand his preference for Alhaji Atiku Abubakar.
It is now clearly partisan. It means Ango has gleefully taken a partisanship position as leader of other Northern elders in the association he self-crowned himself as chairman. But the congregation or its members belongs to different political affinities or persuasions. The bitterness Ango harbours on the Buhari presidency permanently cannot make NEF better.
Ango should reposition NEF first before expending energy on thinking about Nigeria. Professor Sir, asking President Buhari to resign over insecurity in the North is the most thoughtless utterance. Please, tell Nigerians which administration brought Boko Haram into Nigeria. Ango should help Nigeria and the North by telling the sponsors of the killings that the North is tired of the bloodshed. Ango, the sponsors are your friends and partners in crime and so, prevail on them to halt the killings.
Kuta is a former member of the National Assembly and wrote from Minna.

With the recent passing of my father, almost 94 years into his remarkably healthy lifespan, I've been pondering the nature of death. The key question for all of us is whether individual consciousness persists after the neural network that serves it ceases to function. Are we purely existential beings who are part of the machine and expire along with it, or are we more numinous passengers who disembark at the appointed time and place, leaving the mortal shell behind for a more glorious destination? (An unlikely fairy tale, methinks.) Does cognition blink out like switching off a light, does it slowly tatter into confusion and then fade, or does it live on in a different form of awareness? I sometimes think that the the nightly retreat into unconsciousness that we all experience – the "Little Sleep" of the title – is just a chain of rehearsals for the final curtain – the "Big Sleep" of Raymond Chandler's novel. If the dreams that well up in the sleeping mind are compelling, how much more momentous are those that engage the spirit when there is no chance of awakening from them? Even Shakespeare was wary of this, giving Hamlet the words: "To die, to sleep – to sleep, perchance to dream – ay, there's the rub, for in this sleep of death what dreams may come…" But on the night my father passed, I received a subliminal message in his voice, sounding bleak and puzzled: ". . . falling into darkness . . ." It reminded me strongly of Aleister Crowley's last words: "I am perplexed." This may not be the last stanza in my father's long-running saga, but it certainly gave me pause.
I know the Western religious position: human life is a "one-and-done" proposition; you don't miss a beat upon dying and your intact soul winds up in "the good place" or the "bad place" in short order (after a judicious interlude of weighing). But – although spiritually inclined – I'm devoutly non-religious, so those concepts don't hold any water for me. Hindu yogis teach that the phenomenal world we perceive with our senses is illusion (maya), a natural outgrowth of the relativity and duality of earthly existence. Edgar Allan Poe had a characteristically somber outlook on the subject: "All that we see or seem/Is but a dream within a dream." For the average person, the spiritual path that frees us of this illusion doesn't reach its terminus in a single lifetime, so I assume the burden remains ours, in-body or out. Somehow I can't see death letting us off the hook for having to engineer our own eventual salvation. Perhaps Steely Dan said it most succinctly: "You go back, Jack, do it again/Wheels turnin' 'round and 'round." More ominously, the Eagles stuck an oar in the water with "You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave," the famous line from Hotel California. There is work to be done and we can't hire a surrogate, no matter who (or should that be Who?) wants to pick up the tab for our purported sins.
It strikes me that the whole "Heaven and Hell" thing is a fear-mongering tactic by the Church to reinforce moral conduct, part of the grand mind-control scheme that is Western organized religion. If this reward-or-punishment scenario is taken off the table, the argument goes, what other motive is there to live an ethical life? Humans are too flawed to find virtue on their own, so we'll just give them a paternal nudge. Although he returned to the Christian fold late in his life, most of my father's numerous days were a testament to the falsehood of this belief. He needed neither book nor preacher to become one of the sweetest people you could ever hope to meet. Although he wasn't complex, he was "salt of the earth" and goodness was its own reward. We should all be so honorable in our ways.
Well, there's common sense. If you don't treat beings like crap, you're leading by example, and hopefully at least some folks will follow. Then life is a little easier. There's suffering in life no matter what, but why add to it? Not murdering your annoying neighbors because a book says Skydaddy wouldn't like it is probably the worst reason not to do it. Rules and punishments are for people who don't want to think. Unfortunately, there are a lot of those, and I think "common sense" is an oxymoron.
"He needed neither book nor preacher to become one of the sweetest people you could ever hope to meet." We shouidn't even need a book. And in the vast majority of cases, the world would certainly be better off without preachers. Some of the best, most ethical people I've known are atheists. The rest are virtually all agnostic.
Sorry to hear about your dad. 94 is a good run, but Dad is Dad.
Thanks for the condolences. He said he was ready. Reasonable people are motivated by common sense. I don't automatically include religious fanatics among the reasonable.

Also, don't worry about Myan's hairstyle in this, it's only temporary since you guys voted for the fourth one.

Awhile back I came across an adorable company called HipCity Sak. I knew immediately it was the PERFECT gift for my daughter (aka my Fashionista) Ella. Not only is this purse super trendy (ok it's really a kids fanny pack) and useful, it's also a great way to teach young girls how to travel safely with a purse. And, I can guarantee moms will love it because it also means our girls can carry their own things!! Yay!!
My daughter absolutely LOVES her HipCity Sak and I have to agree its pretty awesome.
Ella loves how cute the HipCity Sak is and the fact that she can fit everything she needs right inside. Ella also loves that she can be independent and not have to rely on me to carry her things for her. Probably because I would often answer no when she asked- being one of five kids means moms already carrying enough stuff!).
Ella says she loves that the purse attaches to her body versus carrying a purse on her shoulder because she can't lose it as easily. *Note: She has lost several purses by putting them on a chair when she ate or hanging them in a bathroom stall and forgetting about them. With a kids fanny pack, there is NO reason to take it off so the chance you will lose the purse is greatly reduced.
Ella also loves that the HipCity Sak also has accessory pieces. There were several times on our last trip to Hawaii that she chose to wear the belt with accessories instead of the purse attachment just to add some pizzaz to her outfit.
And, its not just for vacations Ella reports loving being able to carry her own money to Target and the mall with mom and paying for her own treats. She also thinks its a fantastic way to carry her puppy's treats and clean up bags when she takes her puppy named Paris for a walk!
As a woman who loves to travel, I have learned to take several precautions wherever I go. This includes having an across the body purse to make it less likely that I would be pickpocketed. So, I love that the HipCity Sak is a purse that is worn on the front of the body and attached to my daughter in a fashionable way. It's functional and fashionable. I also love that the HipCity Sak teaches my daughter independence. She gets to bring the things she wants to bring her chapstick, hand sanitizer, shopkins etc… and I don't have to worry about carrying them for her. This also helps her learn responsibility because she has to take care of the things she chooses to bring with her. She is only allowed to bring what she can fit comfortably in her bag which limits the number of items she can bring. Again teaching another lesson in prioritizing and making good choices.

GARY CALDWELL has received some abuse for abandoning the 'Middlesbrough Three' but has reassured his ex-Celtic team-mates there will be plenty more colleagues joining them in England soon enough.
Centre-back Caldwell, 27, had been expected to hook up with Willo Flood, Barry Robson and Chris Killen in joining former Celtic boss Gordon Strachan at the Riverside before deciding instead to head to Wigan and the Premier League.
However, having put pen to paper on a four-and-a-half-year contract worth £25,000 a week at the DW Stadium, as he prepares for a Latics debut against Wolves he is not feeling too guilty about taking a different path.
"In the end I opted for Wigan and the challenge of the Premier League," he said. "The three boys who have gone there were team-mates, but everyone is their own man and in the end I had to come here.
"They were a bit annoyed. We all went down as four and then I left them as three so they have been winding me up. You can probably work out what Gordon said. It was a hard thing to do. He's somebody I respect in the game.
Caldwell admits the stronger competition and higher finances are too big a lure down south.
"The Old Firm have lost a few in the last six months or year to the Championship and Premier League," said Caldwell.
"It is a challenge for Celtic and Rangers to maintain that because of the TV revenues, but that's a job they have to do.

HS2 is controversial, and it's not on our patch. The easy option would be for FoSBR to stay neutral. But HS2 matters to everyone, especially to those of us who see rail playing a more important role in future.
Fast and slow don't mix
One of the biggest problems facing the modern railway is timetabling: how do you mix fast and slow trains on the same line?
Beeching's answer was to close stations, so that all trains could go faster. This is part of the reason we don't have trains stopping at places like Saltford, St Anne's Park, Flax Bourton and Coalpit Heath.
Another answer is to build a separate line for express trains. Enter HS2. By taking fast trains off the East Coast, West Coast and Midland Main Lines, it will allow more local trains to use these routes. Stations on all three lines can be reopened because it will be possible to fit them into the schedule.
Is there a better way?
Could we upgrade existing lines? Lord Berkeley, in his dissenting report, thinks so. But he estimates the cost would be almost as high as HS2, and the disruption (2,700 weekend closures) would amount to closing the network every weekend for the next 30 years. It's a non-starter.
Could HS2 have been better managed? Undoubtedly. For example some estimate that tens of billions could have been saved if the DfT had not insisted on over-engineering to remove risk.
Is it an expensive railway? It is a lot of money but the figures are misleading as they include new stations, some of which will be needed for Northern Powerhouse Rail, and trains. The cost per km is broadly similar to a modern motorway.
Is it going to destroy large areas of ancient woodland? HS2 is a long high-speed railway. It will have an impact. For example in the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty one hectare (out of 11,000) will be lost. In all, HS2 will have an effect on 0.01% of our ancient woodland. In other places more recent woodland such as the trackbed of the Great Central Railway at Calvert Jubilee will be lost. This is highly regrettable, though it is odd that HS2 makes headlines for this whilst the planned Lower Thames Crossing motorway, which will take almost as much ancient woodland, hardly gets a mention.
Should the money be spend on hospitals, schools, or other rail schemes? That might seem desirable, but it isn't possible. HS2 is an investment funded by borrowing. There is no pile of money that could be diverted to other things.
HS2 is a vote of confidence in the future of rail. It will allow for more trains to more places. A future extension from Birmingham to Bristol, as proposed by Greengauge 21, would have a major impact locally allowing high-speed trains from Bristol to Scotland and the North.
If HS2 is cancelled, all bets are off. There is no credible alternative scheme.

Neolithic Ritual Cave Site Discovered in Ireland
COUNTY MAYO, IRELAND—The Journal reports that human remains discovered on Ben Gorm Mountain in 2016 have been dated to as early as 3600 B.C. Upon excavating the natural boulder chamber where a hiker spotted scattered bones, researchers found the remains of at least ten adults, teens, and children that had been placed in a pit over a period of 1,200 years. Their skulls may have been ritually removed after the bodies had decomposed. "Large pieces of quartz had been placed in and around the bones," explained Marion Dowd of the Institute of Technology, Sligo, the archaeologist in charge of the investigation. "Only a very small portion of each skeleton was found, with the majority of bones apparently deliberately removed." Dowd added that the site indicates a highly complex practice of processing the dead during the Neolithic period. To read more about the prehistory of Ireland, go to "Samhain Revival."


Planters are very versatile component of street furniture. Besides their decorative function, can be used to restrict access or mark pathways.
It is possible to install planters without anchoring them in the ground so they can be moved on specific occasions, thus doing away with the need to acquire additional furniture.
Industrias Agapito has a catalogue of several models of planters, of varying capacities and materials: treated or tropical wood, steel, cast iron, recycled plastic or high-density polyethylene.

Are you ready for the National catwalk? It's your turn!
Contestants will model age- appropriate attire that has a casual, tailored look. Shorts, slacks, jumpers, capris, skirts and skorts are examples of clothing that may be worn in the Modeling Competition. The outfit shouldn't be too fancy or elegant, it should be something that you would buy off the rack at a department store. Small rhinestones and bead accents are allowed although they should not take away from the outfit or the contestant.
This is an upbeat and fun event! Turns, hesitations, poses and walks may be used. Please, no Pro-Am modeling such as aerial spins, kicks, or flips. The setting is an upscale department store fashion show.
Contestants' demeanor should be upbeat and positive, not pouty or demure. Age appropriate makeup may be worn in all age divisions. We will provide music for you.
Modeling performances have a time limit of 45 seconds. At 45 seconds, a timer will sound and the music will fade out. At that time you must stop modeling. No points will be deducted from your score if this occurs. The 45 second limit is enforced so each contestant models for the same amount of time and so we can stay on schedule.
A $200 Sponsor Fee is required for each Modeling entry. Sponsors may be listed under each contestant's photo in the digital National Program Book for her age group. Modeling fees count toward advertising awards, but no advertising space is given nor do they take the place of the required $1200 Queens' sponsor fee.

Saint Paul's Cathedral, London, UK
InfoTécnica
St Paul's Cathedral is an Anglican cathedral on Ludgate Hill, the highest point in the City of London, and is the seat of the Bishop of London. The present building dates from the 17th century and was designed by Sir Christopher Wren. It is generally reckoned to be London's fifth St Paul's Cathedral, all having been built on the same site since 604 A.D. The cathedral is one of London's most famous and most recognizable sights. At 365 feet (111m) high, it was the tallest building in London from 1710 to 1962, and its dome is also among the highest in the world, St Peter's Basilica in Rome being higher. The Monument to the Great Fire of London, also designed by Wren and the tallest doric column in the world, would fit inside the cathedral's interior.
The cathedral is built of Portland stone in a late Renaissance style that represents England's sober Baroque. Its impressive dome was inspired by St Peter's Basilica in Rome. It rises 365 feet (108 m) to the cross at its summit, making it a famous London landmark. Wren achieved a pleasing appearance by building three domes: the tall outer dome is non-structural but impressive to view, the lower inner dome provides an artistically balanced interior, and between the two is a structural cone that supports the apex structure and the outer dome. Wren was said to have been hauled up to the rafters in a basket during the building of its later stages to inspect progress.
The nave has three small chapels in the two adjoining aisles – All Souls and St Dunstan's in the north aisle and the Chapel of the Order of St Michael and St George in the south aisle. The main space of the cathedral is centred under the inner dome, which rises 108.4 metres from the cathedral floor and holds three circular galleries – the internal Whispering Gallery, the external Stone Gallery, and the external Golden Gallery.
The Whispering Gallery runs around the interior of the dome 99 feet (30.2 m) above the cathedral floor. It is reached by 259 steps from ground level. It gets its name because, as with any dome, a whisper against its wall at any point is audible to a listener with an ear held to the wall at any other point around the gallery. A low murmur is equally audible.
The base of the inner dome is 173 feet (53.4 m) above the floor. Its top is about 65 m above the floor, making this the greatest height of the enclosed space. The cathedral is some 574 feet (175 m) in length (including the portico of the Great West Door), of which 223 feet (68 m) is the nave and 167 feet (51 m) is the choir. The width of the nave is 121 feet (37 m) and across the transepts is 246 feet (75 m). The cathedral is thus slightly shorter but somewhat wider than Old St Paul's.
The quire extends to the east of the dome and holds the stalls for the clergy and the choir and the organ. To the north and south of the dome are the transepts, here called the North Choir and the South Choir.
Details of the towers at the west end (illustration, left) and their dark voids are boldly scaled, in order to read well from the street below and from a distance, for the towers have always stood out in the urban skyline. They are composed of two complementary elements, a central cylinder rising through the tiers in a series of stacked drums, and paired Corinthian columns at the corners, with buttresses above them, which serve to unify the drum shape with the square block plinth containing the clock. The main entablature breaks forward over the paired columns to express both elements, tying them together in a single horizontal band. The cap, like a bell-shaped miniature dome, supports a gilded finial, a pine cone supported on four scrolling angled brackets, the topmost expression of the consistent theme.
The north-west tower contains 13 bells hung for change ringing while the south-west contains four, including Great Paul, at 16½ tons - the largest bell in the British Isles, cast in 1881, and Great Tom (the hour bell), recast twice, the last time by Richard Phelps, after being moved from St. Stephen's Chapel at the Palace of Westminster. The bell is only rung on occasions of a death in the royal family, the Bishop of London, or London's mayor, although an exception was made at the death of US President James Garfield. In 1717, Richard Phelps cast two more bells that were added as "quarter jacks". Still in use today, the first weighs 13 long hundredweights (1,500 lb; 660 kg), is 41 inches (1,000 mm) in diameter and is tuned to A flat; the second weighs 35 long hundredweights (3,900 lb; 1,800 kg) and is 58 inches (1,500 mm) in diameter and is tuned to E flat.

Passenger's "Let Her Go" Passes 1 Billion Streams On Spotify
British singer-songwriter Passenger, aka Mike Rosenberg, sees his breakout, international hit single "Let Her Go" become the 42nd song (and only the 7th song from a UK artist) to exceed 1 Billion streams on Spotify, joining an elite group that includes Ed Sheeran, Drake, Justin Bieber, Camila Cabello and Sia. "Let Her Go" is also on its way to the elusive Diamond certification, with nearly 10 Million paid streams and downloads in the U.S. alone. It's already one of 18 tracks that are Diamond-certified in Canada, and the only track from a Canadian label to achieve such status.
Originally recorded in 2012, "Let Her Go" reached No.1 in 19 countries, with the accompanying album All The Little Lights achieving platinum or multi-platinum status in 11 countries. The song's accompanying video surpassed 2 Billion YouTube views last year, and now sits at just over 2.5 Billion.
Of the achievement, Rosenberg said, "How flipping silly and ridiculous! This song just keeps on going and going. A massive thanks to everyone who is still listening / streaming / watching it and of course to Spotify for all of the support over the years!"
Nettwerk CEO Terry McBride adds, "Against all commercial odds, 'Let Her Go' defines what a classic song of the heart can accomplish."
While Passenger is most known for "Let Her Go," the song is only a glimpse at the incredible body of work behind the humble troubadour. From busking on street corners to fund his first albums to touring the globe multiple times over, playing to sold out crowds at some of world's most iconic venues and stages, Passenger has built a tremendously dedicated fan base as a solo acoustic performer thanks to his ability to connect with audiences large and small with his beautiful story-telling, unique voice, and unmatched witty rapport.
Passenger is currently working on a new album, due out in 2020.

Q: List[String] -> Vector[Vector[Char]] I am trying to convert a list of strings to a vector of char vectors:
import collection.breakOut

def stringsToCharVectors(xs: List[String]) =
    xs.map(stringToCharVector)(breakOut) : Vector[Vector[Char]]

def stringToCharVector(x: String) =
    x.map(a => a)(breakOut) : Vector[Char]

Is there a way to implement stringToCharVector that does not involve mapping with the identity function? Generally, are there shorter/better ways to implement stringsToCharVectors?

A: You can pass a String directly to the varargs constructor for Vector:
def stringToCharVector(x: String) = Vector(x: _*)

at which point having a separate method seems kind of silly.  breakOut is for optimization; if you just want to convert, you can
Vector(xs.map(x => Vector(x: _*)): _*)

at the relatively modest expense of one extra object per list element.  (All the chars will most likely be the memory-intensive part.)

A: In Scala 2.10:
scala> val xs = List("hello")
xs: List[String] = List(hello)

scala> xs.map(_.to[Vector]).to[Vector]
res0: Vector[Vector[Char]] = Vector(Vector(h, e, l, l, o))

A: The other way is just to add all the elements to an empty Vector; this is what happens behind the scenes anyway when you call a conversion method:
def stringsToCharVectors(xs: List[String]) =
    Vector() ++ xs.map(Vector() ++ _)

Netanyahu continues bombing Gaza Strip
February 25, 2020	Gaza
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu decided, on Monday evening, to continue bombing the Gaza Strip.
Netanyahu made the announcement, via Twitter, following the security consultations he had with the Minister of Defence Naftali Bennett, Chief of Staff of the Army Aviv Kochavi, head of the Shin Bet security service, Nadav Argaman, and head of the National Security Council, Meir Ben Shabat.
In a related context, the Israeli army spokesman said, in a statement, that the Israeli forces launched new attacks, today, on sites belonging to the Islamic Jihad movement (PIJ) in the Gaza Strip, reported the Israeli Channel 13.
The spokesman said that Israeli fighter aircrafts targeted a military site belonging to the PIJ in Khan Yunis, south of the Gaza Strip, used for training and stockpiling weapons, in addition to another site in Bureij refugee camp, in central Gaza Strip.
As reported by the Hebrew media this evening, rockets were fired from the Gaza Strip towards nearby Israeli towns and settlements, including Netivot and Ashkelon, without causing casualties.
Yedioth Ahronoth said that the rockets, which targeted the settlements of the so-called "Gaza Cover", had not stopped since 7:15 local time (13:07 GMT).
The newspaper indicated that the sirens calls were re-launched in Ashkelon and the Netivot settlement, in which schools were closed temporarily on Monday.
Meanwhile, the official channel Kan reported that 17 rockets were launched from the Gaza Strip towards Israeli settlements and towns, Monday, bringing the total number of rockets fired towards Israel since Sunday to about 50.

HARTVILLE, Mo. (AP) — Some people might describe Hartville, Missouri, as being in the middle of nowhere, but the U.S. Census Bureau on Tuesday announced that it's the closest town to the middle of the nation.
The hamlet of about 600 people in the Missouri Ozarks is located about 15 miles (24 kilometers) from the center of the U.S. population distribution, according to the Census Bureau.
The town is the type of place where families have been farming for generations, everybody knows each other and people stay for the "small-town living," said Sabrina Gilliland, 38, a paralegal for the local prosecutor, who lives on a family farm with her four children, cattle, pigs and chickens.
Gilliland joked that her mother is "related to half the people in the town." The four-block center of Hartville has a diner, barbershop, gas station and hair salon.
Pastor Melvin Moon, a Hartville City Council member, is hopeful the new designation brings tourists to the area known for Civil War history, antique shops and rivers popular for fishing, canoeing and kayaking. The Census Bureau will present a plaque to the town next spring.
"We are truly the heart of America," Moon said. "This small town represents what's great about America still: People are neighbors, people take time for each other and they help each other."
Bypassed by interstate highways and railroads, the town doesn't have a big tax base or large industry. The local school, a nursing home, the gas station and the Dollar General store are the largest employers. There used to be a lot of farmers in the area, but it's hard to make a living that way now, Moon said.
"So you have to want to live here," he said.
The nation's population center is calculated every 10 years after the once-a-decade census shows where people are living. The heart of America has been located in Missouri since 1980. Previously located in Plato, Missouri, in the neighboring county, it moved only 11.8 miles (19 kilometers) southwest from 2010 to 2020. It is the smallest distance shift in 100 years and the second-smallest in U.S. history.
It also was the southernmost shift in history, said Deirdre Bishop, the Census Bureau's chief of geography.
"That pull came from the growth in the southeast, in Florida, Georgia and the Carolinas," Bishop said.
The center is actually still closer to Plato than Hartville, but the Census Bureau likely wanted to keep it moving "since it is so tied up in our national psyche with expansion and progress," said Alex Zakrewsky, who is principal planner for Middlesex County, New Jersey, and has predicted the location after past censuses.
"Hartville also has the additional symbolic value of its name," Zakrewsky said.
To calculate the center of the U.S., the Census Bureau figures out which spot would be "the balance point" if the 50 states were located on an imaginary, flat surface with weights of identical size — each representing the location of one person — placed on it.
Zakrewsky said he wonders if the center of the U.S. is going to move a lot farther west by 2030 since California, the nation's most populous state, is losing residents.
"I sometimes speculate that Hartville may be the centroid's terminus," he said.
The fifth paragraph has been edited to correct the word to "distance."
