The Keefe Report—Memorial Day: "If we are prepared to die, we can go forward."
by Mark Keefe - Monday, May 30, 2016
Memorial Day is a day that is a lot of Americans misunderstand. Frankly, we should thank our active duty military folks and veterans every day, not just on two Federal holidays a year. But that's not what Memorial Day is for. Memorial Day is about remembering those Americans who sacrificed all for their country and the cause of freedom. It is about memorializing our nation's war dead. Remembering those who gave "the last full measure," regardless of where they fell or are interred, from white marble crosses and Stars of David at the American Military Cemetery in Luxembourg, to the "Punch Bowl" (National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific), to the Somme American Cemetery, military cemeteries in every state or even small plots in hometown graveyards to which a bronze plaque is attached to a family memorial.
Of the 116,708 Americans who died during World War I—53,402 of whom were combat deaths or "missing"—I'd like to bring the courage and sacrifice of just one of them to your attention 98 years after he fell near Ronssoy, France.
William Bradford Turner was born in Boston, Mass., in 1892. A 1914 graduate of Williams College (where he was in the Kappa Alpha Society), he was football player who became a New York National Guardsmen, signing up in Garden City, N.Y., in 1915. In 1916, he was called up for duty with New York's "Squadron A" on the Mexican border. By the time he was sent to France in 1917, he was an officer in 105th Infantry Regiment, part of the U.S. 27th Infantry Division, called "O'Ryan's Roughnecks," after its commander Maj. Gen. John F. O'Ryan.
The 27th Infantry Division, made up of New York National Guard units, was actually under the British 4th Army—serving side-by-side with British and Australian troops—and the "Doughboys" in its ranks were actually issued Short, Magazine Lee-Enfield rifles in .303 British. And instead of "damned, jammed" Chauchat, soldiers in the 27th were issued British Lewis guns.
Short, Magazine Lee-Enfield Mk III (top) and Model 1914 Mk I British Lewis Gun
On the night of Sept. 27, 1918 near Ronssoy, France, two companies of the 105th Infantry, including Company M, led by 1st Lt. William Bradford "Brad" Turner, were covering the left flank of the 106th Infantry Regiment's attack on the outer defenses of the Hindenburg Line—perhaps the most heavily fortified defensive works of World War I that the Germans had been preparing for two years
Gallantly leading his men in a night attack, while subjected to murderous machine gun and artillery fire, Turner and his men breached the enemy lines, moving further and further into the enemy's trench system. Turner and smaller group were separated from the rest of Company M. At one point he and his men were fired upon by German machine gun position that opened up almost directly on top of them. Using his "pistol"—likely a U.S. Model of 1911—Turner silenced the German position. Then he assaulted another machine gun nest, killing the gunner, then his men finished the Germans there. He continued to lead his men deeper into the enemy trench system, and in the process he expended every round of .45 ACP ammunition he had. Continuing the attack, Turner picked up a discarded soldier's rifle and gave the enemy the bayonet. During the course of the advance, Turner was wounded three times. Eventually, his small command reached its objective, the fourth line of enemy trenches, but it was down to just nine men, and after hand-to-hand combat and fierce German counterattacks, they were surrounded and Turner succumbed to his wounds.

The main attack by the 106th Infantry was unsuccessful that night, and according to O'Ryan's divisional history, no officers of Company M or Company K of the 105th survived the attack unharmed.
For his bravery, 1st Lt. William Bradford Turner was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor. Today, he is one of 1,844 Americans interned at the Somme American Military Cemetery and Memorial at Bony, France. Also remembered there are the names of 341 missing Americans from the Great War.
It has been said that when America soldiers go overseas to fight for the freedom of others, all they ask in return is enough ground to bury our dead. On this day, we must remember them. Freedom isn't free, and nearly century ago, William Bradford Turner went "over the top" knowing full well he and his men might have to make the ultimate sacrifice. His last words word before jumping off on Sept. 27, 1918, were reportedly, "If we are prepared to die, we can go forward."
While at the beach or barbecue this weekend, when you see an American flag take just a moment to say thank you to generations of American like William Bradford Turner, and to remember them. Because that's what this day is all about.
Medal of Honor Citation for 1st Lt. William Bradford Turner, 105th Infantry Regiment, 27th Infantry Division
"He led a small group of men to the attack, under terrific artillery and machinegun fire, after they had become separated from the rest of the company in the darkness. Single-handed he rushed an enemy machinegun which had suddenly opened fire on his group and killed the crew with his pistol. He then pressed forward to another machinegun post 25 yards away and had killed 1 gunner himself by the time the remainder of his detachment arrived and put the gun out of action. With the utmost bravery he continued to lead his men over 3 lines of hostile trenches, cleaning up each one as they advanced, regardless of the fact that he had been wounded 3 times, and killed several of the enemy in hand-to-hand encounters. After his pistol ammunition was exhausted, this gallant officer seized the rifle of a dead soldier, bayoneted several members of a machinegun crew, and shot the other. Upon reaching the fourth-line trench, which was his objective, 1st Lt. Turner captured it with the 9 men remaining in his group and resisted a hostile counterattack until he was finally surrounded and killed."

Les Payaguás sont un peuple amérindien aujourd'hui disparu qui vivaient dans le Chaco Boréal au Paraguay. Ils étaient de la famille des guaycurús et habitaient à l'époque coloniale le long du río Paraguay, depuis le grand Pantanal du Mato Grosso do Sul au Brésil et en Bolivie, jusqu'à la province du Chaco en Argentine.

Ethnographie

Leur langue faisait partie de la famille linguistique mataco-guaycurú. Elle a été cataloguée comme langue guaycurú, mais certains estiment qu'elle faisait partie de la sous-famille mataco-mataguaya.

Histoire

C'étaient des chasseurs nomades et des pêcheurs qui, grâce à leurs canoës, dominaient le río Paraguay et attaquaient, pour dérober leurs récoltes, les Guaranís qui habitaient à l'est de la rivière. Ils prirent contact avec Juan de Ayolas, qui avait fondé sur leur territoire le port de Candelaria, le . Mais l'année suivante ce dernier fut tué par les Payaguás, au retour d'une expédition dans le Chaco.

À partir de la fondation de la ville d'Asuncion, capitale actuelle du Paraguay, ils attaquèrent également les Espagnols, et devinrent les pirates du río Paraguay.

À partir de 1719, les Sarigués, Cadigués, Kadigués ou Kadigés, qui formaient le rameau septentrional des Payaguás, s'étant alliés à d'autres tribus guaycurú, commencèrent à attaquer les Portugais du Mato Grosso, chassant les habitants de la région du
grand Pantanal. Le butin obtenu, ainsi que les esclaves capturés étaient vendus à Asuncion. En 1730, ils attaquèrent la flotte de Lanhas Peixoto qui transportait vers São Paulo le quint (impôt) du roi, lequel provenait des mines d'or de Cuiabá. Ensuite ils le vendirent à Asuncion.

Le groupe méridional des Payaguás appelé Tacumbús fut contenu vers 1750 par le gouverneur espagnol Rafael de la Moneda, qui établit une chaîne de forts le long du río Paraguay, et finirent par faire la paix avec les Espagnols. Ils s'installèrent alors dans les environs d'Asuncion, ville qui s'enrichissait du commerce des esclaves que capturaient les
Payaguás. Ultérieurement, vers 1770, les Cadigués s'unirent à eux, étant donné qu'ils ne parvenaient plus à attaquer victorieusement les Portugais à cause des forts que ces derniers avaient également établi sur le río Paraguay.

Ils utilisaient les îles du Paraguay pour enterrer leurs morts.

Étymologie
Le nom de Paraguay paraît provenir du guaraní Payaguá-y (rivière des Payaguás).

Q: Why can't I boot from a usb? I generated a brand new (reformatted) USB Key to boot on Ubuntu.
I generated the USB Key using the internet procedure accessing it from a Windows 7 PC with Google Chrome.
I generated the USB KEY successfully.
Now I insert my USB KEY, called PENDRIVE (F:/) automatically, in my other laptop (installed on Ubuntu 8, but I can not just upgrade since the internet connection does not seem to work). Unfortunately my computer I want to re-install on the new Ubuntu has not the possibility to boot on the USB port (if I click on F12 I have 3 options: HDD, DVD, external disk), therefore it boots on Ubuntu 8. No pb, I can try to reboot after. But when I enter the USB KEY, the system detects it is a bootable key, and requests if I want it to autorun. I answer Yes, of course, and it says "Can not find autorun.exe"
If I look in the key, there is file called wubi.exe, but it seems the system does not identify it.

A: You can create a PLOP - CD that allows you to boot from USB even if your Bios doesn't support it. Here is some more information.
Wubi.exe supports to run Ubuntu after Windows has already been booted. As the comments say, that is probably not what you really want and I assume you did try this as a secondary solution.

A: as suggested I would think the external disk option in the bios could be the option to boot from the usb drive. If this does not work you could burn the iso image to a cd or dvd and boot from dvd.

Before the Internet, it didn't really matter which proprietary database system you used, as long as you could export a tab-delimited file. Times have changed as databases have become increasingly interconnected, and 4D's 4th Dimension has changed, too. Since its humble beginnings on the Mac in 1987, it has combined the ability to create a graphical user interface, rich data-structuring tools, and its own programming language. The latest version, 4th Dimension (4D) 2003, is totally OS X native, adds a number of solid Web capabilities, and improves on the program's already impressive range of developer features. However, it also retains the idiosyncratic take on rapid application development that we described in our review of the last version, 4D 6.8.1 ( ; December 2002).
Developer tools are all well and good, but the most-interesting new capabilities in 4D 2003 come in the form of its integrated support for Web services, including XML, SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol), and WSDL (Web Service Description Language). Acronyms aside, these features essentially allow you to publish to or use information from the Web within your solution. There's a wide range of possible ways to use Web services -- you can enable your database to track your FedEx packages, check Amazon.com prices, or record weather status. And a quick online search for Web service or a visit to www.w3 .org/2002/ws/ reveals a ton of available Web services. By connecting your 4D database to a Web service, you turn the database into a client that interacts with a server on the Internet.
This is where 4D 2003 hits its stride. Its Web Services wizard unlocks the door to some powerful tools, via a series of dialog boxes that guide you through accessing a Web service or setting up your own. One downside is 4D's (quite appropriate) focus on developers and programming tools, which means that the byzantine layers of options and dialog boxes will easily lose some novices. An upside is that real power lies under 4D's hood, but you'll need to become quite familiar with the application before you'll be able to go beyond the common paths to configuring Web services.
Developers already familiar with 4D will be right at home with 4D 2003, which is a solid step forward with welcome new features in a variety of areas. The new Methods Editor takes its cues from modern Web-authoring tools, with type-ahead functionality, the ability to remove developer comments even if you choose not to compile your solution, multiple undos (thank goodness!), live syntax checking, and my favorite: split windows for looking at different parts of code at once.
Database developers will appreciate 4D, especially when integrating it with other systems (it comes with an ODBC driver and can act as a front end to a SQL server) and using its built-in Web server or 4D's own WebStar, but if you're a small-business owner looking to get your storage room organized, you may end up feeling quite lost.
To help you with some of the challenges of working with 4D 2003, the company has taken pains to ship 4D 2003 with a wealth of handy editors and wizards that step users through creating reports. The program also comes with a ton of electronic (and Web-based) documentation.
The Quick Report editor -- while a bit of a misnomer since it's not so quick and easy to use -- takes some of the mystery out of generating complex reports. Listing invoice totals by date, for example, is pretty easy, but summarizing them by customer or region can be a bit tricky. The editor handles formatting, gives you a wide range of print options, and even generates HTML. Ultimately, using Quick Report seemed counterintuitive when we were trying to work with cross-tab data (in our case, information from related child tables), but it was faster than building reports by hand.
4D 2003 also now includes a built-in compiler (also finally native in OS X), rather than the external application of prior versions. You can run your solution in compiled mode, which produces a smaller, faster application, when you're finished coding, or have it interpreted by the 4D application so you can go back and make necessary changes.
In an overall sense, 4D 2003 is not easy to learn or use, but the company sure is trying, as evidenced by its well-integrated XML and Web-services support. It's well worth purchasing if you're an established 4D developer, but it will likely be over your head if you're not.

3 Color printing offers even more versatility, so you can print more complicated logos. To the left you will see that white, red, and orange were printed onto a black binder. The black that you see in the design is called a "reverse print" which is empty space that shows the color of the vinyl. You can also see that the colors touch each other, which is called "close registration".
4 Color process, also known as full color, is a premium solution for those who wish to print photos, graphic designs, and more onto ring binders. This is a popular choice for large corporations and brand names that will not modify their brand image to keep costs low. With a 4CP custom binder there is no limit to the number of colors, tints, or shades that can be printed. The minimum for printing 4 color process direct onto vinyl starts at 250 binders. If you need fewer than that, but still want the full color look, consider custom entrapment binders as an alternative.
Padding adds class and looks expensive. It gives a soft appeal that helps you binder stand out from others on the shelf. We can pad just the front cover, or can also pad the spine and back covers. Padding can be done as the only customization for a ring binder, or we can add printing (1 color shown), a deboss (see below), or a foil stamp (see above).
A blind deboss is an impression that is pressed into a padded ring binder without any color, creating a depressed design that looks expensive and classy. It is especially popular for high end restaurants and corporations that want an understated look for their custom branded products.
Review our artwork requirements here to see the file type and size that we require to create the highest quality custom binders. If you need help with the file, we have an art department that can assist with some kinds of modifications.


I read a few forum posts on Woocommerce having blurry thumbnail images after I discovered the same problem. All seemed rather complicated so I ignored everything and looked at the issue myself.
1. Look at WooCommerce -> Settings -> Catalog – at the bottom of the page you'll see that Product Thumbnails are 90 x 90.
2. The actual thumbnail area on the frontend is 118 x 118 so it's stretching the thumbnail.
3. Set the Product Thumbnail to match the area 118 x 118.
Don't forget you'll need to regenerate your thumbnails.


Pinlock® lenses are created out of a moisture absorbing plastic. The silicone seal on the lens creates an airtight pocket between the shield and lens. The lens is placed between two adjustable eccentric pins, making it easy to install or switch lenses as weather conditions change.
Easily cleaned; use lukewarm water or a small amount of mild liquid soap and water and a damp non-abrasive cloth only. Allow the lens to dry naturally.
The Pinlock® lens is made of a soft moisture absorbing material; the lens is less scratch resistant than the face shield. Wrap the lens in a soft cloth material when storing extra lenses.
Note: These inserts are for use with motorcycle helmet shields that have the connection posts for attachment. These inserts cannot be used with a shield that does not have the attachment posts.
The inserts for the HJ-20, the HJ-20M, the HJ-20ST and the HJ-25 shields will only work with the helmets that use those shields and is only available in clear. Those shields aren't as tall as other HJC shields and the corresponding insert is also not as tall.
These inserts attach to the inside of any HJC Pinlock shield; the drop down menu above specifies which inserts work for your type of shield. The insert for the HJ-20 and HJ-25 shields only comes in clear as those shields are available in different colors. You have to have a compatible Pinlock shield to use this product. We are only selling the inserts on this page. How it works… the lens has a bead of silicone-like material around its perimeter which seals against the clear shield and creates an air space between the two surfaces. The airspace insulates and helps prevent fogging. The assembly can be taken apart and cleaned easily if needed. Neat idea!
Pinlock® inserts are interchangeable; pop in the right lens to match your riding conditions. Not all colors are available for each helmet model.
The yellow lens gives you that high contrast vision, ideal in misty and rainy weather.
The amber lens offers high contrast and enhances low light image resolution.
The clear lens is suitable in any weather type with clear, fog-free vision.
The light smoke lens is best in sunny weather.
The dark smoke lens is ideal for very bright, sunny days.

King Togbe Ngoryifia Cephas Kosi Bansah, who rules over 300,000 people in the Hohoe, east of Ghana from a city in southern Germany, has built a jail for women in the town, the German Press Agency (DPA) reports.
The 69-year-old monarch, who has lived in Ludwigshafen since 1970, said the town has no jail only for women.
"Male and female detainees of all ages were held there and the women were subjected to sexual assault by the men," he said. "This was an unacceptable situation – we needed to build cells for women." he said.
The building is painted white and has three cells containing bunk beds. The cells have tiled walls as well as a shower and a toilet, features which are by no means standard in Ghana.
From now on women and underage suspects will be held at the jail. The jail will be adorned with a German flag, while a plaque acknowledges the financial contributions of the town of Heiligkreuzsteinach in Baden-Württemberg and Sonja Müller, another state resident.
While Bansah and his wife covered two thirds of the costs, the rest came from private contributions.
The monarch works as a full-time mechanic in Germany and governs his people over Skype.
Céphas grew up in Ghana but he moved to Germany in 1970 before he was appointed king. His kingdom consists of 300,000 Ewe people.
He originally moved to Germany when his grandfather, the then king, encouraged him to train there as a mechanic. After finishing his studies and gaining full citizenship, he settled and set up his own garage in Ludwigshafen. He continued living a peaceful life until 1987 when he received a Fax which would change his life forever.
His grandfather, the King of Hohoe, had died and Bansah's father and eldest brother were deemed unfit to rule because they were left-handed, which the Ewe people considered to be 'unclean'. This meant that Céphas was his grandfather's successor, and the new king.
He now lives in Ludwigshafen with his wife Gabriele Bansah, 59 and his two children Carlo and Katharina, continuing his job as a mechanic and his role as King. He uses Skype to govern his people and still visits Ghana up to eight times per year.

ALBANY — Don't think you can escape the thrills of our national impeachment drama by turning on, say, a football game or a "reality" show about self-obsessed housewives. If you watch live TV in these parts, you likely will see the ads.
They are aimed at voters in New York's 19th congressional district. That's the massive district represented by Antonio Delgado, the Schenectady kid who grew up, got elected to Congress as a Democrat and recently announced support for the impeachment inquiry against President Trump. (I'm simplifying his life story just a bit.)
"Delgado broke his promise," declares the commercial from the Republican National Committee, which, in a stunning departure from attack-ad norms, depicts the congressman entirely in grainy, washed-out video.
Actually, you may remember the technique from some of the 2018 ads knocking Delgado for his old rap lyrics. How'd that work out guys?
The promise Delgado supposedly broke, according to the ad, was his pledge to focus on the problems facing the country. Your view on whether he actually broke the promise may depend on whether you see the president as a problem facing the country.
Other commercials soon-to-be appearing on local screens present an entirely different view. They're in full color, for one thing. They want to depict Delgado's impeachment decision as insignificant, so they don't directly mention it. We're instead shown a Delgado who spends his time meeting with flannel-shirted farmers in obscure parts of the district.
"I'm here to do the work," Delgado says in a new ad released by his campaign. "I'm here to find common ground."
"For Antonio Delgado, serving in Congress is all about serving country and community — not fighting on Twitter or shouting on cable news," says another new ad, this one sponsored by a dark-money group with ties to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
This seems like a good time to mention my proposal for a law that would strip the vote from any fool who relies on TV ads to gauge a politician's record. Ignore the ads. They are no more real than the show with the bickering housewives.
But in this case, the ads do tell us something. They tell us both sides see impeachment as a potentially defining issue in an up-for-grabs congressional district and are eager to set the terms. It's even possible — God help us — that the 2020 election cycle will be about little else.
Of course, at this moment impeachment is as unpredictable as a pass from a Jets quarterback. Nobody knows where it'll go.
The impeachment inquiry could lead to Trump's removal from office — very slim odds there — or it could fail and allow the president to claim a big moral victory on the eve of his reelection. Democrats, in other words, are playing with fire.
Contract columnist Chris Churchill at cchurchill@timesunion.com or 518-454-5442.
So Delgado's decision to jump onboard the impeachment train was risky, especially since Trump won the 19th by seven points. Voters could very well see impeachment as a backhanded, elitist attempt to overturn an election that Democrats have refused to accept — and punish Delgado for going along.
With the next presidential election about a year away, why not let voters decide whether Trump should be fired?
In the days after the start of the impeachment inquiry, I spoke to two of Delgado's Republican challengers: Anthony German, 60, a retired two-star general and former adjutant general of the New York National Guard, and Ola Hawatmeh, a fashion designer/philanthropist.
Both portrayed Delgado's impeachment move as a critical error. Both described impeachment as unjustified by available evidence. If former Congressman John Faso lost to Delgado because he was too cool to Trump — a debatable assertion — German and Hawatmeh seem unwilling to repeat the mistake.
"I'm for Trump 100 percent," said Hawatmeh, 42, the daughter of Catholic immigrants from Jordan. "He's full of heart and sacrificed to make this country great again."
German, meanwhile, said Delgado "caved to his base" and "supports removing an elected president from office who, incidentally, was selected by a majority of his constituents."
"He has chosen gridlock and impeachment over governing and problem solving," German added.
Hanging over the race is the potential candidacy of Republican Marc Molinaro, recently seen getting his head handed back after Andrew Cuomo removed it during the governor's race. That result notwithstanding, Molinaro would be a formidable Delgado challenger.
But we're getting ahead of ourselves. For now, it's enough to know that those of us without the sense to take John Prine's advice about blowing up our TVs will suffer through ads aimed at the 19th congressional district from now until the fall of 2020. Cheers!

Mr Fogg's Society of Exploration soon to open on The Strand
This autumn, Charlie Gilkes and Duncan Stirling's Inception Group will bring Mr Fogg's Society of Exploration to the West End, complete with train carriage, map room and hidden wonders.
Home / News / Articles / 2018 / September
Located just a stone's throw from Charing Cross station, Mr Fogg's Society of Exploration will be a true travel hub, where "death-defying exploits and adventures are plotted and planned". The walls will be adorned with portraits of Mr Fogg's fellow fearless pioneers and their intrepid tales will be depicted and narrated at regular Society meetings.
The downstairs Map Room will house a collection of both antique and modern-day maps, host regular evening events with a resident explorer, and will also offer global drinking adventures, from cocktail masterclasses to spirit safaris.
Guests will enter via an elegant lobby with an oversized rotating globe marking the places visited and modes of transport that the intrepid pair took. Moving downstairs, they will encounter cabinets of curiosities, souvenirs and artefacts handpicked by fellows of the explorer society.
There will be a life-sized model of a Victorian Orient Express, complete with banquette seating and gleaming brass lamps where passengers can let off steam over a libation or two. The main bar area will feature wooden panelling, shelves laden with travel books and encyclopedias, and warm leather armchairs to welcome weary travellers.
A place for experiments and innovation, Mr Fogg's Society of Exploration will even give drinkers the chance to participate in the making of their drinks by pressing a button to trigger a chain reaction in a marvellous mechanical machine inspired by famous inventor Rube Goldberg.
The multi-sensory menu will take the form of an explorer's journal charting the feats of fellows across nine extraordinary areas of Earth. Each chapter will focus on one location, ranging from ancient man-made creations to wonders of the natural world. Drinkers will soar above the palms of the Sahara Desert, shiver at the sub-zero temperatures of The North Pole and plummet to the depths of The Great Barrier Reef while show-stopping sharers will include The Sheep Wheel, a reproduction of a ship's helm and The Bombay Sapphire Rube Goldberg Machine.
"It's been five years since we opened our first Mr Fogg's, we're thrilled to add a fifth venue to the collection and look forward to welcoming anyone with a love of travel, cocktails, or both to The Society of Exploration!" comments Society co-founder and keen traveller, Charlie Gilkes.

Saudi Arabia Sets Its Eyes On Central Asia
By Viktor Katona - Feb 03, 2018, 6:00 PM CST
Saudi Arabia understandably attracts a lot of attention – the corruption purge jangles the nerves of the royal family, the 32-year old Mohammad bin Salman-led construction of NEOM, the city of future, excited urban planners whilst remaining shrouded in mystery, its reaction to the latest oil price surge is still a key indicator of what will happen next. Perhaps overshadowed by other events taking place concurrently, Saudi Arabia seems intent to break new ground in South Asia. Turkmenistan is all in favor of Riyadh's assistance which would finally help it alleviate concerns with regard to its shrinking gas marketing possibilities. But to fully understand the importance of Saudi Arabia pushing forward the TAPI project, one first must explore the often opaque ways of Turkmenistan's political elite and the state which TAPI ended up in because of it.
TAPI (short for Turkmenistan-Afghanistan-Pakistan-India) is a pipeline project that had been floating around for some 20 years before the parties concerned agreed in 2011-2012 to implement it. Then, it seemed, the chaos and carnage of the Afghanistan invasion had been subsiding. Peace in Afghanistan was and remains essential for the TAPI project – in the 1990s Turkmenistan's authorities talked directly to Taliban (and received its support for the project), in the wake of the 2001 invasion coordinating became much more difficult. Although Afghanistan is still very far from being a safe – a suicide bombing as recent as January 27 left more than 100 dead – the gas thirst of India and Pakistan forced the sides to get back to the project.
Turkmenistan has greatly suffered in the past years from two things – lack of market outlets and its own inflexibility. Up to now, Ashgabat had two main potential supply routes – first is to export its gas via Russia, the second is to sell it to the Chinese. The framework for the former case has been set in 2003 when Russia and Turkmenistan signed a 25-year contract stipulating that Gazprom would resell Turkmen gas of up to 40-50 BCm/year (never reached that height, mostly moved in the 10-12 BCm/year interval). Cooperation with the Chinese, however, seemed to be picking up quite nicely – three lines of the Central Asia-China gas pipeline were built with supplies reaching 30 BCm/year, however, after the deceleration of gas demand in China the construction of Line D, the fourth one, ran aground. Related: Why Natural Gas Prices Just Tanked
More importantly, since 2016 Turkmenistan's only major buyer is China. Gazprom used to re-export Turkmen gas (most of gas supplies to Ukraine before 2014 was from there), however after oil prices dropped in early 2015, it made no sense to continue buying gas from Ashgabat for a fixed price of $240/MCm as prices in Europe were an $80-100/MCm lower. The Turkmen side proved unwilling to drop the prices, therefore Gazprom has brought the supplies to a halt and in case it needs Central Asian gas, it turns to Uzbekistan, not Turkmenistan. Iran, too, has been out of question after a halting of exports in January 2017 – Turkmenistan demanded the massive debt incurred by the Iranian side, estimated to be around $1.75 billion, and even after international arbitration resolves the issue in 2018-2019, it is unlikely that the gas supplies will see a continuation.
It is incontestable that Turkmenistan has the required amount of gas, its Galkynysh field ("Independence") has at least 14 TCm of gas. Note the usage of "at least" – the Turkmen Energy Ministry states the reserves are as large as 27.4 TCm, however due to the opaque nature of information coming out of Ashgabat and their propensity to exaggerate it would be politic to adopt a more balanced view of things, most likely the latter number is a P10 estimate. When Galkynysh reaches peak production and nothing goes wrong by that time, it will be producing 95 BCm/year, currently only South Pars and Bovanenkovo are producing more. Still, largely due to its leadership's intransigence, Turkmenistan has only one major market outlet, leaving it desperately in need of others.
TAPI used to have the backing of major Western powers in the 1990s, primarily the United States, since creating a new major gas supply conduit whilst avoiding Russia and Iran was hailed as a step to render Central Asian nations less dependent on those regional leaders. That support has since waned as the American establishment got weary of prolonged dealing with Afghanistan, paving the way for the now emerging rapprochement of Ashgabat with the Saudis. Their arrival and financial help, Turkmen authorities seem reinvigorated, no wonder. The crux of the matter is that TAPI shareholders reached an agreement in 2015 that Turkmenistan will be the responsible for building the pipeline.
Notwithstanding the fact that the National Company "Turkmengaz" has no major international experience in carrying out such a project (the pipeline is 1814km and transits all imaginable geographic zones), the estimated cost of $10 billion seemed too much even at that point. Without a doubt, national statistics demonstrate years of robust growth, however, it is widely assumed that they are tinkered with, embellished for representative purposes. In fact, Turkmenistan witnessed a major food crisis in 2016-2017, banned currency exchanges, is in the process of lifting free gas, electricity, salt and water supplies and, most importantly, has been postponing the project for years already.
Related: Goldman: Oil To Top $80 Within Six Months
Turkmen authorities have finished the 214km pipeline section from the Galkynysh field to the Afghani frontier (thankfully it is very close, located in the southeastern part of Turkmenistan), yet even this they managed by means of a $700 million hospitable loan from the Islamic Development Bank (based in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia). It is noteworthy that the other parties did not proceed an inch up to now. It is in this context that the Saudi Development Fund is "funding heavily", to quote the words of Turkmenistan's Deputy Prime Minister Maksat Babayev, in the TAPI project.
Due to the opaque nature of these transactions we might never get to know exact figures and deal terms, however, if Turkmenistan's President publicly lauds the "political wisdom and foresight" of Kind Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saudi, you know that the Saudis are involved in earnest. Still, one has to emphasize that Saudi financing solves the liquidity problems of the TAPI project, but does not eliminate security concerns arising out of the fact that a potential gas pipeline in Afghanistan would be very vulnerable. Saudi money and political clout will indubitably help, however, more tangible Indian and Pakistani support would be crucial to see TAPI completed.

This one also features a rather curious subtitle; Octovulin. Perhaps that's a not-so-subtle hint as to where the whiskies came from...?
Nose: Kippers, dates and a hint of orange peel sweetness.
Palate: Spicy as it opens with black pepper and cinnamon, before a good whack of seaweed and smoke appears.
Finish: A mixture of dried fruit, fiery ginger and coastal smoke.

Summer 2019 will see the spectacular Museum of the Moon, by artist Luke Jerram, installed in London's Natural History Museum.
From Friday 17th May until Sunday 8th September 2019, event organisers will have the exclusive opportunity to host their events under the incredible moon.
The world renowned art installation, measuring six metres in diameter, features detailed NASA imagery to perfectly recreate the moon's surface. Since its launch in Bristol in 2016, Jerram's moon has been enjoyed at festivals, sporting events and in public spaces by thousands of awe-struck visitors from across the globe.
By day, the art installation will be part of the Museum's temporary exhibitions. After hours, however, event guests can dance the night away underneath the mesmerising lunar glow.
Museum of the Moon will take centre stage in the stripped back Jerwood Gallery. The gallery's gilt and terracotta ceiling panels and stained glass windows alongwith the moon will provide an elegant backdrop for summer events; from weddings and summer parties to dinners and networking events.
On arrival, guests can enjoy a drinks reception in the summer sun in the modern Darwin Centre courtyard, before moving through to the stunning nineteenth-century Waterhouse architecture of the Jerwood Gallery.
The unique spaceseats up to 300 for dinner and will be available from 18:00 – 00:00 for private hire (guests may extend the hire until 03:00 subject to availability and an additional fee).
TheNatural History Museum's extensive list of experienced suppliers will also be on hand to transform the space to bespoke specifications. Complementing the moon through beautifully themed catering, floristry and production, the suppliers will create an extraordinary experience for guests.
Luke Jerram's multidisciplinary practice involves the creation of sculptures, installations and live arts projects. The Museum of the Moon was inspired by living in Bristol and noticing the huge tidal variation as he cycled over the Avon Cut each day.
Experienced by more than 2.5 million people worldwide, the artwork has recently toured India with the British Council, been presented at the Commonwealth Games in Australia and exhibited in Aarhus, Denmark, for the European Capital of Culture.
The artwork has been created in partnership with the UK Space Agency, University of Bristol and The Association for Science and Discovery Centres.

Samuel Vetch (né le  à Édimbourg et mort le ) est un soldat écossais et un gouverneur colonial de la Nouvelle-Écosse. Il est l'une des figures de proue du Projet Darién, une tentative écossaise ratée de colonisation de l'isthme de Panama à la fin des années 1690. Pendant la guerre de Succession d'Espagne, il est l'un des premiers partisans de l'idée de conquête de la Nouvelle-France par la Grande-Bretagne, proposant en 1708 de la conquérir et de déporter les habitants de l'Acadie. Il est le grand-père de Samuel Bayard.

Jeunesse
Samuel Vetch nait à Édimbourg, en Écosse, le 9 décembre 1668, et est baptisé dans l'Église d'Écosse le jour suivant. Son père, William Vetch, est un pasteur presbytérien politiquement actif. Lui et sa femme Marion Fairley ont eu plusieurs enfants, dont Samuel est le deuxième. William Vetch est arrêté lors de l'épisode du complot papiste à la fin des années 1670, puis relâché. La famille hébergea le duc d'Argyll, qui était recherché pour son refus de prêter les serments prescrits par le Test Act, et William Vetch est impliqué dans la conspiration écossaise contribuant à la rébellion de Monmouth. Lorsque celle-ci échoue, William Vetch se cache et finit par s'enfuir aux Provinces-Unies, où il est rejoint en 1683 par ses deux fils aînés, William Jr. et Samuel. Les garçons étudient le ministère à Utrecht, mais aucun d'eux ne souhaite poursuivre cette carrière. Tous deux deviennent des partisans de Guillaume d'Orange, et Samuel fait probablement partie d'un régiment de partisans écossais lors de la Glorieuse Révolution de 1688 qui amène Guillaume III et Marie II au pouvoir en Angleterre.

Carrière
Il est ensuite nommé cornette dans le Royal Regiment of Scots Dragoons, "bien que très jeune", à l'âge de 20 ans. Le régiment est renvoyé aux Pays-Bas, où il participe à la Guerre de Neuf Ans. Vetch est blessé à Steinkirk et participe à la bataille de Landen. À la fin de la guerre, il est promu capitaine.

Entreprises coloniales
En 1698, Vetch et son frère William se joignent à une tentative écossaise dirigée par William Paterson d'établir une colonie sur l'isthme de Panama. Le "plan Darien" échoue en raison de luttes politiques intestines dans la colonie, de maladies, d'un manque de soutien et de l'hostilité espagnole. Vetch est élu au conseil colonial et est l'un des survivants (beaucoup des 1 200 colons envoyés en Amérique centrale, dont William Vetch, ont succombé à la maladie) à se rendre à New York en août 1699.

Vetch noue des liens avec la puissante famille Livingston, épousant Margaret, la fille de Robert Livingston. Avec les Livingston, Vetch établit alors un commerce très rentable mais illégal avec la Nouvelle-France, et finit par s'installer à Boston, capitale de la province de la baie du Massachusetts. Bien qu'il ait réduit ses activités commerciales lorsque la Deuxième guerre intercoloniale commence en 1702, il a une nouvelle occasion de faire du commerce lorsque le gouverneur du Massachusetts, Joseph Dudley, l'envoye en mission diplomatique à Québec en 1705 dans le cadre d'une ambassade visant à récupérer les prisonniers capturés lors d'un raid mené en 1704 à Deerfield, au Massachusetts. L'ambassade est un succès et Dudley permet à Vetch de faire un voyage de commerce en Nouvelle-France en 1705. Il est repéré à son retour, et le tollé oblige Dudley à le faire juger et condamner en 1706 pour commerce avec l'ennemi. Il s'est ensuite rendu en Angleterre pour faire appel de sa condamnation et pour faire pression en faveur d'une action militaire contre la Nouvelle-France.

Grâce à sa connaissance de la Nouvelle-France, Vetch propose à la reine Anne la conquête de toute la Nouvelle-France. Ses propositions comprenaient la déportation du peuple acadien vers les Antilles afin que la Nouvelle-Écosse puisse être peuplée de colons protestants. Avec l'appui d'alliés politiques et de gouverneurs coloniaux sympathisants, la reine donne à Vetch une commission militaire et lui promet un poste de gouverneur et un soutien militaire pour la campagne de 1709. Avec Francis Nicholson, Vetch se rend à Boston en 1709 pour lever la milice coloniale et les fournitures. Cependant, la force militaire promise n'arrivera jamais (elle est détournée vers le théâtre européen de la guerre de Succession d'Espagne), et l'effort s'effondre. Nicholson retourne immédiatement à Londres et obtient une nouvelle promesse de soutien pour 1710.

Gouverneur de la Nouvelle-Écosse
L'expédition de 1710 réussit à capturer la capitale acadienne de Port-Royal, mais la campagne environnante n'est pas pacifiée. Vetch est nommé premier gouverneur de la Nouvelle-Écosse, et la ville est rebaptisée Annapolis Royal en l'honneur de la reine. La garnison qui reste sur place manque cruellement d'effectifs et Vetch finance au moins une partie de ses dépenses, bien qu'il ait obtenu une aide officielle du Massachusetts. Cependant, certains de ses subordonnés se plaignent qu'il gère très mal les affaires de la colonie. Nicholson a profité de ces plaintes pour se faire nommer gouverneur à la place de Vetch en 1713.

Des années plus tard
Vetch retourne alors en Angleterre pour récupérer sa réputation et ses fonds perdus. Avec l'accession au trône de George I, il réussit et est nommé de nouveau gouverneur en 1715. Cependant, il ne retourne jamais en Amérique du Nord, car il est appelé à donner des conseils sur des questions de commerce et de politique nord-américaine. Il est officiellement remplacé en tant que gouverneur en 1717 par Richard Philipps, et passe les dernières années de sa vie à tenter en vain de récupérer ses dépenses et d'obtenir d'autres postes coloniaux.
