A German theologian and reformer, Brenz was born in the town of Weil and educated at Heidelberg. He became at magister, or master teacher, in 1518, and was known far and wide for his lectures on the Bible and on Christian theology. He was ordained as a priest in 1520 but by 1523 was no longer celebrating traditional Mass. Brenz supported the reform efforts of Protestant Church founder Martin Luther, whom he accompanied at Luther's famous disputation at Heidelberg in 1518. In 1525 Brenz published the Syngramma Suevicum, in which he supported the idea that Christ was physically present in the Christian sacramental offerings of bread and wine. In 1530 he attended the Diet of Augsburg. When the Holy Roman Emperor, Charles V took up arms against the Protestant Schmalkaldic League, Brenz was forced to flee for his life from the city of Hall. He took refuge in the castle of Hohenwittlingen, under the protection of Duke Ulrich of Württemberg, where he became a leading supporter of the Protestant Reformation. In 1552 he attended the Council of Trent, and in 1554 became provost of the cathedral of Stuttgart.

He defended Luther's doctrine of the real presence of Jesus during the sacramentarian controversy (1525) in his Syngramma Suevicum. During the Schmalkaldic War (see Schmalkaldic League) he sought protection under Duke Ulrich of Württemberg, and became the leader of the Reformation in Württemberg.

Rabbis and Royals, Scientists and Students, Crusties AND Conservationists:
All take to the streets for an unprecedented International Rebellion to call for radical action on the climate crisis
Two weeks of peaceful protesting saw tens of thousands of people in over 60 cities around the world take to the streets to demand that their respective governments act on the issue of climate breakdown.
"International Rebellion", a global action mobilised by Extinction Rebellion, has inspired extraordinary unity across the globe, summoning people from New York City, London and Berlin, all the way to Sydney, Jakarta and Banjul (capital city of The Gambia). Sainey Gibba, 23, a student who was among the group that led the Extinction Rebellion actions in the country, told The Hourglass, "Deforestation in Gambia is increasing, I don't want to lose my land because of the impact of rising sea levels and become a climate refugee, I am helping educate people in Gambia as the majority of Gambians don't even know what climate change means."
The Rebellion spread across multiple US cities with NYC being the largest, "for so long there has been a complete lack of movement and responsibility but finally people are realising that they have power," said chef and NYC Coordinator Christina See, 35.
Despite 1,500 protesters being arrested globally and over 1,700 in London, people showed creativity, inventiveness and vigour in their approach to peaceful protest: a staged die-in in South Africa, hunger strikes in Rome, picnic protesters in Brussels (of which 453 people were brutally arrested and pelted with water cannons) and civil-diSCObedience flash mob dancing in Australia were among the stories that emerged over the past two weeks.
On 12 October over 30,000 Rebels joined a 'Strength in Grief' march across London to mourn the loss of nature and to mark the Day of Indigenous Resistance, which recognises the impact and burden of the climate and ecological crisis on people in the Global South.
Groups of people who you wouldn't expect to collaborate protested side-by-side: 48-year-old farmer Dagan James who is leading XR Farmers in London had this to say about his Animal Rebellion counterparts: "we are in constructive discussions and our common priority is to concentrate on our core actions. There are things we disagree on but we are all being affected by climate change so we need to work together".
People of different religions were working together as one, Christians, Muslims, Jews, Buddhists, and Earth Wisdom Tenders united, holding a "Faith Bridge" in London over the Rebellion. Mothiur Rahman, a 44-year-old lawyer from XR Muslims told The Hourglass, "I am praying for Rabbi Jeffrey and the rest of the people who were arrested today." The 77-year-old Rabbi Emeritus of Finchley Reform Synagogue in north London, said "I see it as my religious and moral duty to stand up for what I believe in, and what I care about, for my grandchildren."
Grandmothers, teachers, parents, doctors, scientists, lawyers, actors and artists protested alongside Royals and the terminally ill: 63-year-old Belgian Princess Esmeralda Dereth was arrested after she joined a sit-in protest in Trafalgar Square, whilst Nick Hodgkinson who has a disability and requires a breathing ventilator travelled all the way from Leeds to join the protests in London. Even Stanley Johnson, the Prime Minister's father joined the Rebellion and said he was proud to be an "uncooperative crusty," a term Boris used to label the protesters.
Over 100 famous figures including Benedict Cumberbatch and Ruby Wax, who also attended the International Rebellion in London, signed an open letter acknowledging that their lifestyles and professions contribute to the climate emergency, and stating that "calling us climate hypocrites will not silence us". Other signatories of the letter, calling on the media to "tell the public the truth about the climate crisis", include Sir Mark Rylance, Sienna Miller, Peter Capaldi and Vanessa Kirby.
Despite all of these efforts, Extinction Rebellion's demands have not yet been met. In the UK these are: that the government tells the truth about the severity of the situation by declaring a climate and ecological emergency; that the UK halt biodiversity loss and drastically cut its greenhouse gas emissions, aiming for net zero emissions by 2025; and that the government creates and is led by a Citizens' Assembly that will make decisions on climate and ecological justice.
On 15 October the Met police in London banned Extinction Rebellion protests from the whole of London. At the time of writing, Rebels have condemned the police's decision as draconian, applying to the High Court in order to challenge the public order. Various NGOs and politicians have also condemned the ban as unlawful.
Andrew Medhurst, an ex-trader with HSBC and Lloyds who quit his 30-year career to join Extinction Rebellion, says he will not give up: "As someone who used to manage risk when I worked in the bank, I would have never been allowed to take risks that will threaten the balance sheet and blow up the bank, but this is what the government is doing."

Michael Cohen's office raided by FBI
By S.A. Miller and Jeff Mordock - The Washington Times
The FBI on Monday raided the office of Michael Cohen, President Trump's longtime personal attorney, provoking a bitter rebuke from the president that the special counsel's Russia probe had entered a "whole new level of unfairness."
The agents seized scores of records from the lawyer's Manhattan office that included documents related to money paid to adult-film actress Stormy Daniels. They hauled off paperwork and electronic files that included tax records and business papers, leaving it up in the air what exactly the FBI was searching for.
The raid signaled a major escalation in Justice Department special counsel Robert Mueller's Russia probe, as it took a giant step closer to the president.
Mr. Cohen's attorney, Stephen Ryan, questioned Mr. Mueller's tactics, calling them "completely inappropriate and unnecessary."
"It resulted in the unnecessary seizure of protected attorney-client communications between a lawyer and his clients. These government tactics are also wrong because Mr. Cohen has cooperated completely with all government entities, including providing thousands of non-privileged documents to the Congress and sitting for depositions under oath," Mr. Ryan said.
Mr. Trump called the raid "a disgraceful situation."
SEE ALSO: Donald Trump calls FBI raid on Michael Cohen a 'witch hunt'
"It's a total witch hunt," Mr. Trump fumed during a meeting with Pentagon officials about Syria. "I've given over a million pages in documents to the special counsel. They continue to just go forward, and here we are talking about Syria. We're talking about a lot of serious things."
He said the relentless investigation, which continued and expanded despite finding no evidence of collusion with Russia, was "an attack on our country in a true sense. It is an attack on what we all stand for."
Mr. Ryan confirmed that the raid grew out of Mr. Mueller's investigation, which was launched to explore suspected Trump campaign collusion with Moscow's efforts to influence the 2016 presidential election.
"Today the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York executed a series of search warrants and seized the privileged communications between my client, Michael Cohen, and his clients," Mr. Ryan said in a statement. "I have been advised by federal prosecutors that the New York action is, in part, a referral by the Office of Special Counsel, Robert Mueller."
The raid was first reported by The New York Times.
The records seized from Mr. Cohen's Manhattan office were communications between Mr. Trump and Mr. Cohen, including emails, tax documents and business records, according to the report.
The FBI could be looking for evidence related to the $130,000 paid to Stephanie Clifford, the real name of the woman better known by her porn moniker. She said she had a sexual affair with Mr. Trump in 2006 and was paid by Mr. Cohen just before the 2016 election to keep quiet about the relationship.
Mr. Trump said last week that he didn't know about the payment to Ms. Clifford or the source of the funds.
"You'll have to ask Michael Cohen," the president told reporters. "Michael is my attorney. You'll have to ask Michael."
If Mr. Trump had coordinated or had knowledge of the payment, it may be a violation of federal election laws or perhaps involve tax implications. If he didn't, it might pose more problems for Mr. Cohen.
Mr. Trump's supporters cried foul at the unusual move of targeting a president's personal attorney.
"It is inexcusable that Special Counsel Robert Mueller would recommend that President Donald Trump's attorney-client privilege be violated in one more example of the win-at-any-cost attitude by this rogue prosecutor," said Rick Manning, president of Americans for Limited Government. "It is beyond comprehension how Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein would have allowed the U.S. Attorney in Manhattan and the FBI based in Manhattan to become pawns in Mueller's Constitution-destroying game. Rod Rosenstein should not still have a job by the end of this week. This prosecutorial insanity to has to end."
The aim of the search remained a matter of speculation, as did how Mr. Cohen fit into Mr. Mueller's probe.
The raid resembled past dramatic and aggressive moves by Mr. Mueller's investigation. In August, the special counsel oversaw an FBI raid on the Alexandria, Virginia, home of Mr. Trump's former campaign chairman Paul Manafort. Agents in that case entered Mr. Manafort's house before dawn to seize documents and other materials.
Ms. Clifford's attorney, Michael Avenatti, said he had forecast troubles for Mr. Cohen.
"An enormous amount of misplaced faith has been placed on MC's shoulders [in my opinion]. If he does not hold up, this could end very very badly for DJT and others," he said on Twitter, regarding the news of the FBI raid.

Gut Microbiome Translates Stress Into Sickle Cell Crises
July 30, 2020—(BRONX, NY)—A new study shows how chronic psychological stress leads to painful vessel-clogging episodes—the most common complication of sickle-cell disease (SCD) and a frequent cause of hospitalizations. The findings, made in mice, show that the gut microbiome plays a key role in triggering those episodes and reveals possible ways to prevent them. The research was conducted by scientists at Albert Einstein College of Medicine and published online today in Immunity.
Paul S. Frenette, M.D.
Faculty ProfileResearch Profile
SCD occurs in about 1 in 365 African-American births. People with SCD have inherited a gene mutation that leads to abnormal hemoglobin, causing red cells (which contain hemoglobin) to take on a sickle shape and become less flexible. The sickled red cells tend to clog small vessels, impeding blood flow and preventing oxygen from reaching tissues. This can result in painful and debilitating vaso-occlusive episodes, or VOE, which can last for days. No therapies can reverse VOE and, over time, they cause significant damage to internal organs—the major reason that life expectancy for those with severe SCD is 20 to 30 years shorter than for those without the disease.
"Research for sickle-cell disease is chronically underfunded and those with the condition are in need—and deserve—new treatments that can help address this major health disparity," said study leader Paul S. Frenette, M.D., professor of medicine and of cell biology and chair and director of the Ruth L. and David S. Gottesman Institute for Stem Cell and Regenerative Medicine Research at Einstein. "We hope our most recent findings can help point to novel solutions for treating this painful and deadly disease."
Using a mouse model, Dr. Frenette and colleagues found that the path to VOE begins in the brain. Stress triggers the secretion of glucocorticoid hormones in the brain, which make their way to the gut and increase its permeability. This greater permeability allows segmented filamentous bacteria (SFB)—a type of beneficial gut bacteria in mice—to interact with Th17 helper immune cells in the lining of the gut. The SFB stimulate those immune cells to produce pro-inflammatory molecules, which enter the circulation and promote the aging and accumulation of neutrophils, a type of white blood cell. In an earlier study, the Frenette laboratory had found that these aged neutrophils are inflammation-inducing cells that drive the VOE.
We hope our most recent findings can help point to novel solutions for treating this painful and deadly disease.
Paul Frenette, M.D.
This chain of events was observed in both SCD mice and healthy mice that were subjected to psychological stress. However, lethal VOE occurred only in the sickle-cell disease mice. "Healthy mice don't have sickled blood cells and therefore don't suffer the ill effects caused by the buildup of aged neutrophils," Dr. Frenette noted.
"Importantly, we found we could markedly reduce stress-induced VOE in mice through several different interventions: inhibiting the synthesis of glucocorticoids, depleting SFB, or blocking the inflammatory molecules induced by these bacteria," Dr. Frenette said. "Each of those actions could potentially limit the impact of psychological stress on people with SCD."
While SFB are found only in rodents, some evidence indicates that similar beneficial bacteria in the human gut can also induce Th17 immune cells to produce inflammatory molecules. "We hope to learn whether there is any correlation between the abundance of these bacteria in patients with sickle-cell disease and the frequency or severity of VOEs that affect them," Dr. Frenette said.
The study is titled, "The gut microbiome regulates psychological stress-induced inflammation." The other contributors are: Chunliang Xu, Sung-Kyun Lee, and Dachuan Zhang (all at Einstein).
The study was supported by grants from the National Institutes of Health (HL069438, DK056638, DK116312, and DK112976).
Dr. Frenette has served as consultant for Pfizer, received research funding from Ironwood Pharmaceuticals, and owns stock options of Cygnal Therapeutics. The other authors declare no potential conflicts of interest.

Home News & Analysis Altman departs First State
Altman departs First State
Jeffrey Altman (pictured), a director who co-led global fundraising and fund management for First State Investments' European Diversified Infrastructure fund, has left the firm. Altman had been with the business since January 2008.
Andy Thomson
Jeffrey Altman left First State Investments, the international arm of Australia's Colonial First State Global Asset Management, in the summer. He is since understood to have been travelling and could not be reached for comment. In a statement, First State said he had "left the company to pursue other business opportunities".
Altman, who was based in the London office, joined the firm in 2008 having previously been chief executive and president of US hydrogen specialist Hy9 Corporation.
Altman, a director of infrastructure investment management in Europe, co-led global fundraising and fund management for First State Investments' European Diversified Infrastructure Fund. The fund, which has been in the market since 2007 with a €1.5 billion target, had raised €673 million by January this year.
Having started out as an open-ended vehicle – with no defined term and with the capacity to add investors throughout its life – the fund was changed to a hybrid structure early in 2011. The structure is based on a 15-year life, with investors given the opportunity to extend the life in five-year blocks.
Altman had also worked on deal origination, transactions and strategic relationships in continental Europe. He was a board member of NWEN, the holding company of Electricity North West, a £320 million (€404 million; $509 million) UK-based electric distribution company. During his career, Altman has spent more than 19 years as a senior executive in infrastructure and energy.
First State's European team includes head of infrastructure asset management Niall Mills, head of infrastructure transactions Marcus Ayre, and co-heads of infrastructure investments Danny Latham and Philippe Taillardat. Last year, Australian national Latham relocated from London to Sydney for family reasons.
In the First State statement, Mills said: "We wish Jeffrey every success in his future plans and would like to thank him for his contribution to our business."

Всеволод Иванович Роборовски () е руски пътешественик, географ, изследовател на Централна Азия.

Ранни години (1856 – 1878)
Роден е на 9 май 1856 година в Петербург, Русия, в небогато дворянско семейство. През лятото заедно с родителите си прекарва в родословното си имение в Тверска губерния и още тогава са заражда интереса му към природата – събира хербарии, прави колекции от насекоми и др. Като гимназист страстта към природата още повече се засилва: "Географията още от малък ми беше любим предмет" – казва по-късно Роборовски. Втори любим предмет му е рисуването. Чете с удоволствие описания на пътешествия и особено тези на Николай Пржевалски.

След завършване на юнкерското училище Роборовски се среща с Фьодор Леонтиевич Еклон, помощник на Пржевалски и негов спътник. Еклон му описва прекрасния живот на пътешественик и Роборовски го моли да го запознае с Пржевалски. Срещата се провежда, великия пътешественик е очарован от младежа и го вписва в списъка на участниците в своята Първа Тибетска експедиция (1879 – 1880).

Експедиционна дейност (1879 – 1895)

Участие в експедициите на Пржевалски (1879 – 1880 и 1883 – 1885)
Участието в експедицията на Пржевалски през 1879 – 1880 е голяма школа за бъдещия пътешественик. Натоварен е с ботаническите изследвания (събира 12 хил. растения от 1500 вида) и зарисовките на събираните колекции. И с първата и с втората задача Роборовски се справя успешно и когато през 1883 излиза книгата на Пржевалски за това пътешествие, рисунките в нея са дело на Роборовски. Неговият труд е оценен високо от Руското географско дружество и му е присъден малък златен медал.

В следващото пътешествие на Пржевалски през 1883 – 1885, Роборовски вече участва като старши помощник-началник на експедицията, а молива и планшета е заменен с фотоапарат. След завръщането си от пътешествието по съвет на Пржевалски Роборовски постъпва в Генералщабната академия, която завършва с отличие.

Участие в експедицията на Михаил Певцов (1889 – 1890)
Роборовски заедно с Михаил Певцов и Пьотър Козлов е включен в 5-ата експедиция на Пржевалски, но след неговата смърт през 1888 начело застава Михаил Певцов и тук вече Роборовски се проявява като самостоятелен изследовател.

През март 1890 тръгва самостоятелно от селището Ния на североизток към оазиса Черчен . Оттам завива на юг, изкачва се по река Черчен, пресича пустинята Кумкати и установява, че реката е граница между хребетите Алтънтаг на изток и Токуздавантаг (6303 м) на запад. Продължава на изток по реката и по десния ѝ приток река Димналик и достига до прохода Гулчандаван (4313 м, 88º и.д.), от където през април се завръща в Ния.

През май 1890 пресича Руския хребет (84º и.д.) по река Туланходжа и стига до изворите ѝ – прохода Ючжаст (Атишдаван, 4976 м). На югозапад от прохода вижда гигантския хребет Люшишан с височина до 7160 м, простиращ се между 80 – 82º и.д. и на 35º 20` с.ш. В средата на август се изкачва по река Черчен и по левия ѝ приток река Музлук, като в изворната област на последната открива хребета Музлуктаг (6025 м). Пресича хребета по река Улугсу (горното течение на Черчен) и се изкачва до изворите ѝ под връх Улугмузтаг (7723 м). Продължава на изток по северния склон на хребета Пржевалски, открива езерото Ачиккьол (, на 4250 м) и вливащите се в него реки и завършва откриването на езерото Аягкукьол (, на 3867 м) и реките от басейна му. По този начин установява размерите на котловината Култала (около 20 хил. км2), разположена на север от хребета Пржевалски. На 38º с.ш. и 89º и.д. дооткрива хребета Чиментаг, разположен на юг от Алтънтаг, а така също и планината Кумбуян.

Самостоятелна експедиция (1893 – 1895)
През 1893 – 1895 заедно с Пьотър Козлов извършва пътешествие в Централна Азия, като посещава Източен Тяншан, Кашгария, Турфанската котловина, Наншан, Североизточен Тибет и Хамийската пустиня.

В средата на юни 1893 експедицията тръгва от Каракол на изток и покрай Тяншан достига до Турфанската падина, която изследва. От нея Роборовски продължава на изток към Хами (Пьотър Козлов следва друг маршрут), завива на юг и през източната част на пустинята Гашунска Гоби достига до Дунхуан , в подножието на Наншан, където на 28 януари 1894 пристига и Козлов.

През 1894 двамата изследват западната част на планината Наншан. По различни маршрути през цялата 1894 двамата пресичат планината в различни места, проследяват редица междупланински долини, точно установяват протеженията и границите на отделните хребети, като оправят, а често и силно променят картите съставени от техните предшественици. През зимата на 1894 – 1895, надявайки се да достигнат на югоизток до Съчуан, при студове от -35 °C достигат на юг от езерото Кукунор до хребета Амне Мачин (6094 м, разположен на 34º с.ш. и 100º и.д.) и по скалисти дефилета го преодоляват. Там на 17 февруари 1795 Роборовски внезапно тежко заболява, и след седмица, през февруари 1895, Козлов, след като поема ръководството на експедицията поема обратно. На обратния път експедицията се завръща в Турфанската падина, продължава на северозапад, пресича пустинята Дзосотин-Елисун (45 хил. км2) и открива пустинята Коббе (46º с.ш.). В края на ноември 1895 отрядът се завръща в Зайсан. Извършени са 2670 км маршрутни топографски скици, събрани са 25 хил. растения от 1300 вида, около 30 хил. броя насекоми и са определени астрономическите координатите на 30 точки.

Последни години (1896 – 1910)
След завръщането му от последното пътешествие заболяването му се задълбочава, но със силата на волята си той успява да завърши труда си по самостоятелното си пътешествие, след което се установява в имението си в Тверска губерния, където умира на 5 август 1910 година на 54-годишна възраст.

CBN revokes Skye Bank's Licence, Polaris Bank takes over
By Footprint to Africa	 September 22, 2018 No Comments
Exactly 27 months after it intervened in the ailing bank, the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) revoked the operating licence of Skye bank. To avoid a run on the bank, the CBN in consultation with the Nigeria Deposit Insurance Corporation (NDIC) has established and licensed Polaris bank to assume all assets and responsibilities of the defunct Skye bank.
The CBN and NDIC also disclosed at a joint briefing in Lagos, that 786 billion Naira has been injected into the new bank. Addressing journalists, CBN Governor, Godwin Emefiele said the strategy was for the Asset Management Company of Nigeria (AMCON) to capitalise Polaris Bank.
He recalled on July 4, 2016, the CBN took regulatory action on Skye Bank which led to the resignation of the chairman of the bank, non-executive directors on the board, the managing director, deputy managing director and two of the longest serving executive directors on the management team at the time.
According to Emefiele, the CBN's actions was informed by unacceptable corporate governance lapses. He said "the focus of the action was to save depositors' funds and to ensure that the bank continued as a going concern, being a systematically important bank. Part of our intention was also to stem the imminent job losses to staff, if liquidation option had been adopted".
He added that "these objectives have been fully achieved and the bank has been able to meet customer obligations, having curtailed the liquidity haemorrhage and restored depositor confidence. Indeed the bank's performance has improved considerably, compared to the July 2016 era".
The CBN Governor noted that the result of recent examinations and forensic audit of the bank revealed that the bank required urgent recapitalisation. Emefiele said the bank could no longer live on borrowed times with indefinite liquidity support from the CBN.
The Governor noted that "as a responsible and responsive regulator and in consultation with the NDIC, we have decided to establish a bridge bank, Polaris bank, to assume the assets and liabilities of Skye bank. The strategy is for AMCON to capitalise the bridge bank and begin the process of sourcing investors to buy out AMCON".
Emefiele assured investors that their deposits shall remain safe under the new arrangement. He also said normal services will continue in the new bank on September 24, 2018. He noted that "thus all customers of Skye bank shall be automatic customers of the new bank and their accounts and records duly purchased by Polaris Bank".
He concluded by saying "we wish to assure the general public that the Nigerian banking industry remains safe and resilient and that the CBN will continue to live up to its responsibilities of promoting stability in the banking and financial system".

Applications are CLOSED for Rimbun Dahan's Yearlong Visual Arts Residency for 2018. We are currently reviewing the applications and will endeavor to be in touch with all applicants by end-October.
Rimbun Dahan has hosted year-long residencies for more than 20 years, and we have seen Malaysian artists use their time with us to further their practice and become illustrious names in the local art scene like our most recent year-long resident artists — Wong Xiang Yi (2018), Zulkifli Lee (2017) and Azliza Ayob (2016).
** This short-term residency will not end with an exhibition but artists are encouraged to participate in Open Studio Days which are open to the public.
The resident artist must leave behind 1-2 works at the end of their residency for the Rimbun Dahan permanent collection, chosen by Rimbun Dahan in consultation with the artist.
Please indicate if you'd like hard copy application material to be returned after selections are made.
Applications are CLOSED for Rimbun Dahan's Southeast Asian Arts Residency for 2018. We are currently reviewing the applications and will endeavor to be in touch with all applicants by end-October. Artists who are NOT from Southeast Asia may apply to our Open Residency program which has rolling applications.
Rimbun Dahan is committed to investing in emerging/developing artistic talents in the region and furthering artistic exchange with our neighbours. We invite visual artists (of all disciplines), writers, arts managers, and researchers/curators from Southeast Asian countries to submit applications for residencies in 2019. Residencies can be minimum 1 month and maximum 3 months*. Spots will be limited as we are on a set budget for these residencies. Generally it is difficult to secure more than 30 days for a residency due to immigration restrictions over which we have no control; however for strong applicants we would consider staggering a residency for a longer period. However, the artist is responsible for air fares and immigration compliance. It is best to plan ahead with our confirmation about longer periods.
All applications must be received by Monday, 1 October 2018.
*ASEAN nationals are given 30 days stay in Malaysia per visit – 30 days does not always equal one month, so be mindful of days and dates when booking flights. In our experience, Malaysian immigration prefers that ASEAN nationals have at least a week between their most recent departure date from Malaysia and their next re-entry date.
You can apply for an additional 30 day extension to your visa while in Malaysia before your initial visa ends by visiting an immigration office. Approval of extension is not always guaranteed. Processing can take anywhere from 2 days to a week, and it may require you to change the date of your original return ticket. So if you are planning to extend your stay, do be ready and make arrangements during your residency to go to the immigration office and go through the necessary processes OR to book multiple flights to renew your visa every 30 days during your residency.
At the end of a residency, a visual work is provided for Rimbun Dahan permanent collection, the selection is made by Rimbun Dahan with guidance from the artist.
Please note that the following is not provided: travel funds, airport pickup and dropoff, meals, or materials.
Please send in COMPLETE applications only. You can choose to send either an electronic application OR a hard copy application, please do not send both. All applications are due by Monday, 1 October 2018.

Zul has been industrious throughout his eight months so far in residency, working on large scale pieces and participating in many group exhibitions in local galleries and institutions. He is working towards his first solo exhibition, which will be held at Rimbun Dahan to mark the end of his residency, in end of November.
Zul has been working with natural materials such as rocks and sand and so his colour pallette reflects the colours prevalent in Rimbun Dahan, captured on textured canvases.

Their work is based on the theme of communication. At their open studio, they spoke about collaborating long distance by sending each other videos of themselves dancing, and how to now translate that exchange through verbal and non-verbal communication when in the same physical space.
Applications are CLOSED for Rimbun Dahan's Southeast Asian Arts Residency for 2018. We are currently reviewing the applications and will endeavor to be in touch with all applicants by mid-October.

Why Netflix's Biggest New Movie Is Being Blocked in Its Director's Home Country
Ninety-three percent of South Korean theaters are blocking Bong Joon-ho's Okja.
By Matt Miller
Netflix is really having a tough go with this whole movie business. After causing a ruckus at Cannes Film Festival last month, the streaming service prepping for the much-anticipated June 28 release of Okja, a socially conscious, near future adventure about a massive, pig-like animal.
Netflix and Amazon Movies Get Booed At Cannes
Though the movie was booed at the French festival because the growing rift between the streaming service and local industry laws, it received phenomenal reviews from critics. But now the film from Bong Joon-ho—the celebrated South Korean-born filmmaker behind The Host and Snowpiercer—is being blocked in most his home country's theaters. South Korea's three largest cinema chains—Lotte, Megabox, and CJ CGV—will not screen Okja, shutting the film out from 93 percent of the country's theaters.
As Variety reports:
Lotte and Megabox followed CJ CGV's denial of screens on the grounds that Netflix's plan for a day-and-date cinematic and online release flouts the usual three-week hold-back before a film becomes available for streaming. CJ CGV calls the delay "an important business practice in Korea." The company also contends that Netflix's simultaneous opening policy disturbs the distribution ecosystem in South Korea.
Though Bong told Variety during Cannes last month that directing a Netflix film did not "make much difference for me as a filmmaker," this marks more worldwide resistance to films debuting on the streaming service.
There's no such law conflicting with the release of movies in the U.S. To be eligible for Academy Award consideration, however, a film must screen at a commercial theater in Los Angeles County "for a qualifying run of at least seven consecutive days, during which period screenings must occur at least three times daily, with at least one screening beginning between 6 p.m. and 10 p.m. daily."

Researchers have worked for decades on finding a clear cause of Alzheimer's disease. While research has identified many risk factors, science has not found a direct cause of the disease. A recent study by the University of Southern Denmark looks at a recently identified risk factor: ionizing radiation exposure.
Ionizing radiation exposure has become more common in modern society thanks to occupations like nuclear plant technicians and airplane crew members. Many types of medical tests and treatments like radiation therapy and CT scans also put patients at risk of higher exposure to radiation.
While studying the hippocampus region of mice brains, researchers applied low doses of ionizing radiation over 24 hours for 300 days. The test showed molecular alterations in the hippocampus similar to those seen in the brains of Alzheimer's patients. The hippocampus is the main target area of the brain for Alzheimer's study since it is responsible for memory and learning.
The research, published in Oncotarget, suggests that people who work at high-exposure jobs might be at a higher risk of developing Alzheimer's, as well as people who undergo radiation treatment or multiple imaging scans.
The study also suggests that the radiation causes damage by targeting the integration of newly created neurons in existing synaptic wires — essentially breaking already existing neural bonds.
Memory loss and cognitive decline can become hazardous conditions while on the job. If you or a loved one are still pre-retirement age and experiencing early Alzheimer's complications that prevent you from working, call the Disability Help Group at 800-800-2009. Our disability advocates will schedule a free consultation where we will discuss your right to Social Security disability benefits.

Review: The Destroyer by Michael-Scott Earle
The Destroyer by Michael-Scott Earle
The Destroyer is a very intriguing fantasy tale packed with action and interesting twists and turns. Some of the characters are fairly stereotypical but Kaiyer, the main character, was for me refreshingly original with many flaws, complexities and strengths and with a code of honour that only he understood. Unfortunately, there were several inconsistencies in the telling of the tale, notwithstanding the skilful and imaginative writing of the fascinating plot. This caused me to pause occasionally and think 'No, that doesn't work' and it spoiled my enjoyment.
The setting of the story was quite definitely medieval fantasy and had many of the obligatory ingredients like Elven folk, evil and ruthless, and feats of magic, electric lightning bolts fired from hands and incredible properties of recovery from 'fatal' injuries. However, there were too many conversations that included idiomatic phrases one would expect to find in a contemporary novel but not in the language of this fictional middle/dark age. Phrases along the lines of 'getting your shit together' or 'having a different agenda' jarred with this reader. I did not like the changing point of view between Kaiyer one chapter and then Paug in the next. It was far too confusing and it would have been simpler to stick to the third person throughout the book. I could see the advantages of being inside Kaiyer's mind at times when he has been asleep for many, many decades, but when a character is describing how he is being finally killed then an element of comedy creeps in.
The book should also come with a warning about the extremely graphic violence and erotic scenes. For me they were not necessary in the lengthy detail used since it suddenly slowed down the decent pace of the story. As a parent I would not like to think that a younger, more innocent reader would be confronted with such pages. It is not clear who the target audience is for this series of novels. The abrupt ending to the book was annoying and came across as a deliberate ploy because to find out what happened next you have to buy the next book. It felt like a cop out and a con. I do not see why each novel in the series could not stand alone in its completeness of the writing. The denouement alone, as written here, would prevent me from buying the next one in the series. Overall, I really enjoyed the story but think there are aspects to the finished product that still require attention.
I was provided with a complimentary copy of this book, through Reading Deals, so I could give an honest review.
Review: Among Friends: Travels in Cuba by Heather Murray
Among Friends: Travels in Cuba by Heather Murray
This book was written by Heather Murray as her account of the various visits to Cuba that she made over several years. It is an interesting read, amusing in parts but without any sense of cynical humour. The author's affection towards the country and its people is very obvious after just a few chapters. Although I had no personal curiosity about Cuba before reading this book it is written so well, with such enlightening enthusiasm for the country's culture, traditions and even political complications, that I was pleasantly intrigued throughout her account. The details about the economy, the transport and the day-to-day struggles of the population, who seem to remain resolute to "succeed", come what may, often had me gasping in astonishment.
It will remain as one of the very few travel books I have ever enjoyed. It is capable of dismissing some of the myths one may have about Cuba and the living conditions found there while at the same time introducing a few amazing stories that linger in the memory. For example, the fairly common practice of young adult Cubans trying to have a relationship with a tourist that may result in marriage. Thus enabling them to leave their own country to take up a better standard of living in the tourist's country when a 'happily married couple'. Of course it is not as simple as that sounds but the tales that Heather Murray relates about it are fascinating. For me a highly recommended book.

Book Review: Who Killed Vivien Morse? by Diana J Febry
Who Killed Vivien Morse by Diana J. Febry
This is the third of the books that I have read by Diana J Febry and it has become my favourite. For me the range of new characters was more interesting and the plotline more intriguing with enough twists and turns to keep me turning the pages. The returning partnership of detectives Peter Hatherall and Fiona Williams was welcome with its slight hint of a past relationship that was more than professional and at the same time the occasional moments of irritation between the pair added realism. The amusing and farcical characters, Gladys and Dick, gave the story some lighter moments while the unfortunately tragic figure of Ellen touched the heart.
All of the characters were believable in the familiar setting of the local "horsey community" and conversations came across as important and pertinent. For me the setting and the original plot made a refreshing change from many I have read within this genre. There was an exciting build-up of tension towards the end as the two detectives began to chase down the real culprit after a few false starts for both them and the reader. I had a few editing issues at times but nothing that spoiled my enjoyment of the story by a talented thriller writer.
I received a complimentary copy of the book in return for an honest review.

Lynn Haven beefs up animal control ordinance
Officers now can capture neglected animals, issue citations
Collin Breaux
cbreaux@pcnh.com
LYNN HAVEN — An amendment to Lynn Haven's animal control ordinance will give officers more "teeth" when responding to reports of dangerous or abused animals.
During a regular meeting Tuesday, the Lynn Haven City Commission unanimously approved an amendment to the ordinance, allowing Animal Control officers to capture and impound neglected or abandoned animals, investigate cases on public or private property and issue citations to animal owners or others violating the ordinance.
And while Animal Control officers can't bear arms or make arrests if they aren't also law enforcement officers, they can "carry a device to chemically subdue and tranquilize an animal" provided they have the necessary training.
Animal Control officers weren't able to adequately address reports of animal abuse and neglect in the community under the previous code, according to city leaders.
Before, such attempts "had no teeth," Mayor Margo Anderson said after Tuesday's meeting. "This will set an example for kids and everyone that animals should be loved and respected."
The added language stipulates animal abandonment or neglect includes failing to provide sufficient potable water or wholesome food; adequate shelter with a sufficient and level floor, three structurally sound walls and a solid roof; and veterinary care. Keeping an animal in an enclosure that prevents it "from free and full movement with full extension of its limbs" also is prohibited.
Violations are civil infractions that can be appealed to the city's Code Enforcement Board or magistrate. First offenses will cost a $100 fine, second offenses $250 and third offenses $500.
"It's been much needed for a long time," Commissioner Judy Tinder said after Tuesday's meeting. "It will benefit the city and neighbors who have had to deal with abuse and neglect."
Other meeting highlights:
• Beef 'O' Brady's was named the Business of the Quarter because of its support of youth sports.
• A historic fire truck used by Lynn Haven in 1945 will be donated to the city and used as a historic relic in parades and for citizens to look at.
• The commission approved entering into a contract with the Bay Haven Charter Academy Foundation to provide school resource officer services to Bay Haven Charter Academy for the 2018-19 school year. The Lynn Haven Police Department will continue to provide two officers at the request of Bay Haven Charter Academy Inc., and Bay Haven will pay $93,354 for the services.

Labrys exec reveals Instagram-like Memento is coming to Bitcoin SV
Interviews 23 March 2020
Larry Baker
Labrys knows a lot about developing blockchain products for a wide range of applications. The blockchain development company, while agnostic in its blockchain choices generally, has recently started work on a Bitcoin SV (BSV) application. To learn more about their work, and what they bring to the BSV community, we got in touch with their executive director, Lachlan Feeney.
We first asked Feeney what it means when Labrys describes itself as a leading blockchain development company.
"At Labrys, we want to be at the top of our game when it comes to delivering quality blockchain products to our clients," he said. "We have made it a major focus of ours to ensure that the service we provide at Labrys is above and beyond what you can get elsewhere on the market. We believe that this top tier service and reputation as one of Australia's leading blockchain development agencies has helped us secure major contracts not only locally, but also globally from leading companies in the blockchain space like NEM."
Labrys was born out of an opportunity
Feeney and his co-founder, Taber Silver, have been involved in the blockchain space for some time, and Labrys was born out of an opportunity. "Labrys was forged out of the passion of its cofounders to be able to work on exciting and cutting edge-blockchain technology each and every day," Feeney said. "We set up Labrys because there was a need for these services, and we were extremely passionate about sharing our knowledge and helping other companies in the space take the technology mainstream."
Although sometimes opting to use public blockchains, Feeney told us that they don't work for everybody. "We are very big believers in public blockchain infrastructure at Labrys and believe that when it is an option for clients, public blockchain infrastructure will usually present the most value," he said. "However, public solutions are not always possible due to regulations and compliance within particular industries. Where public blockchain solutions are not possible we look at hybrid solutions first. Sidechains are still new but are presenting some really exciting opportunities in the public/private blockchain space which we are heavily exploring. When regulations or company policy requires private blockchain solutions we will then explore which private blockchains will suit a project best."
Why Labrys is building on BSV
There's a big market out there for Labrys, as most industries have something to gain from their expertise. "Blockchain, like most technologies, presents enterprises with a new opportunity to achieve efficiency gains," he said. "Blockchain can automate and perform tasks much more reliably than most of the software solutions that have come before it. The immutable ledger achieved by blockchain is particularly useful to enterprises in the compliance space in creating irrefutable audit trails that can cut down manual time and costs spent on auditing work. It is also very useful amongst supply chains, especially when one particular enterprise does not own or control the entire supply chain."
We asked Feeney what potential he saw in BSV specifically, and his current view of its progress. "As a blockchain services company we are blockchain agnostic, meaning we make it our aim to be experts in as many different blockchain platforms as possible so that we can always service our clients regardless of their preferences," he said. "Bitcoin SV is one of the new blockchain platforms that we have seen increased demand for as of late, due to its low-cost, high-capacity on-chain throughput."
Memento is powered by Bitcoin SV
Then the conversation turned to the BSV project Labrys is currently working on, and it sounds pretty exciting. "Labrys is currently working on Memento, an Instagram-like social media platform on Bitcoin SV for a client," he revealed.
Memento, which made its debut at the second BSV Venture Pitch Day, is looking to disrupt traditional social media sites by allowing the user to generate income from the photos they post.
Feeney said: "Memento takes advantage of the low-cost nature of the Bitcoin SV blockchain to store all data from the platform on-chain. Low fees mean that Bitcoin SV micropayments are possible for uploading, liking and commenting on the platform. A significant effort has been made to make the user experience of the platform as seamless as possible so that anyone can start getting paid for posting content to the platform, even if they have little blockchain knowledge. The project is still in the very early stages of development but is definitely one to keep an eye on."
Now that his team has had a chance to work with BSV, Feeney says there is something there that other enterprises should definitely consider. "Despite the controversy surrounding the Bitcoin SV blockchain, it has a considerably higher hashrate (and therefore is less susceptible to attacks) than many of its Proof-of-Work, big-block, low-fee competing blockchains. When a project must store all data, especially large data, on-chain in a very cheap and efficient manner, Bitcoin SV should be in discussion as a potential option," he said. "However, as with all our projects at Labrys, we evaluate each project uniquely and will recommend the most suitable blockchain platform for each unique project."
With EHR Data's recent announcement to use the BSV blockchain to record their medical data, we asked about Labrys' use of blockchain technology in their health care vertical.
"We have been focusing on blockchain's use case in health care to more easily and securely share patient data between practices," he said. "One of the key issues in the health care space is the difficulty in sharing test results and reports between doctors and different health care practices, resulting in many patients having to redo tests at new practices as this is currently easier than trying to get results and patient data transferred. This problem is created in part because the practices own the data, not the patients, and there is no incentive for the practices in sharing that data with their competitors. The problem is also simply a result of lacking the right technical infrastructure. Most data is still stored on premises, not in the cloud, and in some cases only physical copies are produced. Blockchain can address these issues by presenting an interoperable cloud-based infrastructure that puts the data back in the patient's hands."
This push to give patients control over their own data, using blockchain technology like BSV, has nothing but benefits. "We definitely see the ability to own your own data in the health care space a major positive for consumers of health care," he said. "By giving ownership to the patient rather than the practice, patients will be able to freely take that data with them to any health care provider. Ownership of that data also gives them the ability to monetise their data. We have been working on a project that allows patients to anonymise their health care data and sell it directly to researchers to help find cures for diseases. Overall, we see blockchain technology making major improvements to the health care sector, and handing control of medical data back over to the people is a key part of this."

Didn't see "proudly made in the USA" anywhere, FWIW.
As far as lights go, I don't think its worth it.

Influenced by the Heavy Metal giants of the 80's, Midnight Prophecy are making a name for themselves by taking the sound of the original heavy metal bands of the era and making it their own, and thus dragging the classic heavy metal of the 80's into the 21st century. Having recorded and released their debut self titled album; Midnight Prophecy are quickly establishing themselves as a must see Heavy Metal Band of 2019.
Having already supported in their short career so far, the likes of: Anvil, Satan's Empire, The Jokers: and chosen to support Diamond Head & Phil Rudd from AC/DC. Midnight Prophecy have been touring the UK from Newcastle to Birmingham and everywhere in between, promoting their debut album and supporting bands on the road from the likes of: Kaine, Vice, Twisted Illusion, Aramantus & Sertraline. European bands from Temperance and Disquiet, as well as: Evyltyde, Promethium, Novacrow, Tomorrow Is Lost, Witch Tripper, Voodoo Blood and Black Cat Bones. Their hard work is paying off, as they are creating a loyal fan-base where ever they travel to, which has led the band to make their first appearances at this year's SOS Festival and Mosh Against Cancer Coventry.
Midnight Prophecy's sound has evolved from a mutual love of music and history that has come before us, to create a blend of power, melody and groove that is weaved through the art of storytelling that captivates, entrances and excites music lovers. With an album on the way with an open road ahead of them, this is a deadly concoction of great things that are to come.


A retired teacher who groomed and sexually abused young boys at a private school has been jailed for eight years.
Christopher Jarvis, 70, tempted youngsters at the now-defunct St Peter's Preparatory School in Seaford with chocolate before assaulting them in his room.
Describing his actions as a "gross breach of trust" Judge Guy Anthony told how his victims had struggled with "life-long problems".
He said: "Sadly it shows that there were two sides to your character and sadly it's the darker side that brings you here today."
Jarvis, of Dukes Drive, Eastbourne, taught at the school - whose alumni include Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby and Falklands hero Colonel Herbert Jones - between 1962 and 1980.
Hove Crown Court heard he would invite pupils to his room and projector room where he handed out chocolate bars and pornographic magazines before sexually assaulting them.
Jarvis targeted ten boys aged ten to 14 up until 1976 before joining Bede's Prep School, in Eastbourne, in 1982.
He remained at the exclusive independent school until allegations about his conduct at St Peter's came to light in October 2012.
She added there was no suggestion of wrongdoing at the school.
Hugo Binney, a student at St Peter's between 1968 and 1974, was in court for the sentencing.
The 53-year-old said his former teacher "deserved" the sentence for his "disgusting" crimes.
He added: "I take no great pleasure in seeing him sent down but he deserves it.
"I remember him as a very good teacher. He had a good sense of humour and very supportive.
"I spoke to him on Friday and he was resigned to the fact he was going to prison.
Detective Constable Hannah Elmer, of Sussex Police, described the case as "complex" and "distressing".
Judge Anthony handed him eight years for the 14 offences of indecent assault and gross indecency.
He is also banned from working with children on his release.
Three of his victims were in court on Friday but did not return for sentencing yesterday.
Speaking last week they said they were "pleased" justice had been done.

Among the Internal Revenue Code's many rules are some taxpayer-friendly provisions that grant tax benefits. Section 1235 is one such provision, providing to an inventor preferential tax treatment for income from the sale or exchange of a patent. In Cooper v. Commissioner, although the taxpayer inventor satisfied § 1235's requirements, the Ninth Circuit affirmed the Tax Court's decision to deny the taxpayer § 1235's benefits. This Note compares Cooper to other § 1235 cases and argues that Cooper was decided wrongly because of the application of the substance over form doctrine. The substance over form doctrine is overapplied in general and, in light of the Code's decades of development, may no longer be necessary. Additionally, because taxpayers require clarity in order to arrange their affairs, Congress should clarify the Code's new internal inconsistency regarding the treatment of income from the sale or exchange of patents resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.
