Most affordable Dumpster Rental in Kettleman City - Is It Worth It?
Clearly you want to spend as little cash as possible when renting a dumpster in Kettleman City. Occasionally, however, the most economical dumpster rental in Kettleman City option is not worth it. In fact, it may wind up costing you more in the long term.
Choosing the cheapest option could mean that you get a dumpster that is too little for your endeavor. After you fill up the dumpster, you'll have to pay for another to complete your project. It's usually cheaper to get a bigger size and avoid the hassle.
The most affordable dumpster rental companies in Kettleman City might not include matters like drop off and pick up fees. Ensure that your quotes include all extra fees. This way you can compare costs correctly to get the best deal. Customer care another major concern. More than a few companies keep costs low by cutting corners on service. The last thing you would like would be to waste time awaiting a truck to arrive by means of your dumpster.
If you are seeking to rent a dumpster in Kettleman City, one of your main considerations is going to be price. There are generally two pricing options available when renting a dumpster in Kettleman City. Flat rate is pricing determined by the size of the dumpster, not the amount of stuff you place in it. Per ton pricing will charge you based on the weight you need hauled.
One sort of pricing structure is not always more expensive than the other. In the event you know just how much stuff you need to throw away, you might get a better deal with per short ton pricing. On the other hand, flat rate pricing can help you keep a limitation on prices when you are coping with unknown weights. Whether you consistently rent dumpsters for work or just need a one-time rental for a project throughout the house, you want to search around to find the best rental prices based on your demands.
Dumpster leases are one of the most affordable means to remove waste and debris from a home or commercial property. Still, it is necessary that you contemplate your options to ensure you get the best price possible on your dumpster rental in Kettleman City.
Asking firms for price quotes is one of the simplest methods to ensure you get a great deal. After speaking to several companies, you can compare the estimates to decide which one matches your needs at the lowest cost. When getting estimates, make sure the firms comprise all of the services which you will want. Some companies charge extra for services like drop off and pick up. They could also charge higher rates for removing specific kinds of substances. By having them comprise all of the fees in your quote, you can compare the prices correctly instead of becoming mislead by a rental business that hides additional costs.
Most cities or municipalities do not have many regulations regarding dumpster rental in Kettleman City as long as you keep the dumpster totally on your own property during the rental period. In case you need to position your container on the road in any way, you will likely have to get a license from the appropriate building permit office in your town.
Most dumpster rental firms in Kettleman City will take care of securing this license for you if you rent from them. Make sure that should you're planning to put the dumpster on the road, the business has made the proper arrangements. You must also guarantee that you get the license in a timely manner and at the right cost. In the event you believed the dumpster business was getting a license and they did not, you will be the one who will need to pay the fine that's issued by the authorities.
The cost to rent a dumpster in Kettleman City depends on several factors such as the size you need and how long you need to keep it to complete your job. Typically, you can expect to spend more cash for larger dumpsters. Keeping the dumpster for a longer amount of time may also raise the cost.
Getting quotes is among the top ways to compare dumpster prices to ensure you get a fair deal. Since some companies may charge extra fees, it's very important to make sure the price quote comprises all of the gear and services that you need.
Typically, renting a dumpster in Kettleman City is an affordable means to remove debris from a construction, remodeling, or clean out project. So long as you get price quotes in order to compare your options, you need to find that you can get a superb deal on a dumpster rental in Kettleman City.
Do I require a license to rent a dumpster in Kettleman City?
If that is your first time renting a dumpster in Kettleman City, you may not understand what's legally permissible in regards to the placement of the dumpster. If your plan is to place the dumpster entirely on your own property, you're not usually required to acquire a license.
If, however, your project needs you to put the dumpster on a public street or roadway, this will generally mean that you have to submit an application for a license. It's almost always wise to check with your local city or county offices (perhaps the parking enforcement office) in case you have a question about the demand for a license on a street.
If you don't get a license and find out afterwards that you were required to have one, you will probably face a fine from your local authorities. In most dumpster rental in Kettleman City cases, though, you should be just fine without a license as long as you keep the dumpster on your property.
There are a lot of things to consider when picking a local or national dumpster rental firm in Kettleman City. Follow these guidelines that will help you decide which choice is better for you.
A local dumpster rental firm in Kettleman City may offer better customer services that help you complete your job while keeping costs low. Many of them, nevertheless, have a limited variety of dumpsters to rent. Should you not schedule an appointment in advance, you may not have the choice you need.
A national dumpster rental firm in Kettleman City will usually have more sizes and layouts to satisfy the exceptional needs of your job. National businesses are also an excellent choice for building crews which work in several cities. Some folks, however, complain that national businesses are not as elastic as locally owned firms.
Dumpster rental companies that charge flat rates are often the very best options for contractors and home owners. When you utilize a business that charges a flat rate, you can anticipate at least two benefits.
Paying a flat rate generally means that you just get to prevent any hidden fees and charges. Businesses which don't charge flat fees may include additional charges for basic services like dropping off the dumpster. Keep in your mind, however, which you still may have to pay extra should you would like to include particular things and materials in the dumpster.
Having a flat rate also means you can prepare your payment in advance. This is especially useful when you need another person to make the payment for you. When you know the exact amount, you can compose a check ahead of time. Then, anyone can pay the rental company when its driver drops off the dumpster.
Whether or not you require a permanent or roll-off dumpster depends upon the kind of job and service you'll need. Permanent dumpster service is for continuous needs that continue longer than simply a day or two. This includes matters like day to day waste and recycling needs. Temporary service is exactly what the name indicates; a one-time demand for job-special waste removal.
Temporary roll off dumpsters are delivered on a truck and are rolled off where they will be properly used. All these are generally larger containers that may manage all the waste which is included with that special job. Permanent dumpsters are generally smaller containers because they are emptied on a regular basis and so don't need to hold as much at one time.
Should you request a permanent dumpster, some firms require at least a one-year service agreement for this dumpster. Roll off dumpsters just need a rental fee for the time that you keep the dumpster on the job.

AccessReel Reviews – Red Hill
It's Constable Shane Cooper's first day of work in the small Australian town of Red Hill. He has his hands full dealing with a storm warning, an escaped convict and a tough egotistical boss.
The advertising tagline for RED HILL is Revenge Just Rode Into Town. As much as director, writer, producer and editor (!) Patrick Hughes intended his tale to be an Australian take on the Western – it is also a basic revenge tale.
We are introduced to the town of Red Hill through the eyes of Shane Cooper (Kwanten) the new police constable. He and his very pregnant wife have moved to the area from the city in search of a quiet life. Cooper discovers the townsfolk are a tightly knit group as are his new colleagues led by Old Bill (Bisley). It becomes clear to the young man that his new job will be more challenging than he imagined.
News comes of a prison break. Escapee Dural "Jimmy" Conway (Lewis), a convicted murderer and former resident of Red Hill, is at large. Old Bill is sure that Conway is headed straight back to his old home town to pay back the police and Old Bill in particular, for having put him into prison. Red Hill goes into lock down. Conway is on the hunt. Why is not clear. The mystery troubles newcomer Cooper.
The majority of the movie is about capturing Jimmy Conway. He is a man of almost mystical abilities. Old Bill describes him as a the best brumby tracker he's ever seen. This is where Patrick Hughes uses the white perception of Australian Aboriginals to create a character with powers the whitefellas fear.
This is not a movie for people looking for a subtle exploration of the relationship of Indigenous and European Australians. Hughes has made a violent action flick that verges on Oz-ploitation. The casting of Lewis as Conway is a deliberate tip of the hat to his ground-breaking debut in Fred Schepisi's 1978 film THE CHANT OF JIMMY BLACKSMITH. RED HILL doesn't have that movie's horrific undertone or serious intent. It uses the subject of race in Australia as the catalyst for the story, without saying anything deep or insightful. This will annoy people who care about these issues, but as the film is aimed squarely at the general market, these concerns are unlikely to impact on its box office.
The performances in RED HILL are serviceable. Kwanten is likeable as Cooper, Bisley is convincing as the tough old copper and Lewis has a some memorable moments as Conway. Claire van der Boom, known to audiences from her excellent first season in the televsion series RUSH, is seriously underused in her role as the pregnant wife.
But RED HILL is essentially a masculine film, which is where it connects back to the Westerns it pays hommage to. Women are marginal in this world. When they appear it's as mothers-to-be or victims. The film is about discovering who is the most powerful man. It's about the old frontier saying, "A man's gotta do, what a man's gotta do." It's about drawing your gun first and having the guts to pull the trigger in a just cause.
RED HILL is definitely for audiences who want to see this kind of simple good versus evil conflict back of the big screen. Like other Australian movies of 2010, TOMORROW WHEN THE WAR BEGAN and THE LOVED ONES for example, it has an impressive marketing campaign and it is looking to hook in as many punters as possible. It's the opposite of the Aussie arthouse film that nobody wants to see. If this sounds like your cup of tea, or shot of old redeye, then saddle up and head on down to your nearest picture palace, pronto.
RED HILL runs for 95 minutes and is released in Australia today. I rated it 2.5/5

Q: Increasing entropy of random walk in regular graph Let $P$ be a transition matrix of a random walk in an undirected regular graph $G$. Let $\pi$ be a distribution on $V(G)$. The Shannon entropy of $\pi$ is defined by
$$H(\pi)=-\sum_{v \in V(G)}\pi_v\cdot\log(\pi_v).$$
How do we prove that $H(P\pi)\ge H(\pi)$ ?

A: $P\pi$ is the distribution after taking one step in the graph. Every element after $\pi$ goes through $P$ is a weighted sum of $\pi_i$ with a row of $P$. So you can express $P\pi$ as a vector with the following elements: $\sum_i p_{j,i} \pi_i$ for every row $j$ of $P$.
You can take this sum and substitute in the entropy of $H(P\pi)$, and use the Log sum inequality to get the relation you want.

After compiling and installing xfc4-xfapplet-plugin from source, I am able to run Bubblemon in my XFCE4 panel! Oh joy!


The anticipation was high as we strapped on our gaiters and hoisted our backpacks to pose for a group shot at the start of the Overland Track. When I had thought about it, 65km of trail walking over 6 days didn't seem too bad. It just averaged 11km a day. How hard could it be, really?
But when we physically lifted our backpacks for the first time, weighted down with all the food and gear we'd need over the coming days, the distance suddenly seemed more daunting. Quite a bit more daunting.
Oh well. One step at a time. They said the first day of the trek was the hardest, probably because we had the heaviest load and had to traverse the steepest section of the trail to Marions Lookout.
So we took it slow. Admired the increasingly expansive views of the landscape as we ascended, often being overtaken by day trippers with their teeny-tiny daypacks. But in the words of my three-year old niece, after we'd tackled Marions Lookout, "it's not so bad".
The weather started to close in though. Before long, we were shrouded in mist, and our world shrunk to a dreamy foggy sphere. Having done the trek 3 other times before, my brother described the supposedly fantastic scenery that surrounded us while we kept our eyes on the ground and trudged on.
At least it wasn't raining. Well, not until we finally reached our campsite at Waterfall Valley in the late afternoon, and set up our tents. That night, it raged. We could hear the howl of winds in the mountains seconds before it swooped down into the valley and tore at the walls of our tents. The rains lashed ferociously against the flimsy fabric, as we buckled down into our sleeping bags before it got dark, crossing our fingers that the tents held up. Thankfully, the hut wardens walked by in between a lull, and advised my brother to move his tent, for they had pitched it in a low-lying area – when we emerged the next morning, that area had turned into a bog.
The first half hour of your journey on the Overland Track is on boardwalk, across the buttongrass moorland. The track soon rises and passes beside Crater Falls, then follows beside Crater Lake. Rest and replenish here before you tackle Marions Lookout (1250m) – the steepest section of the Overland Track.
For the next 5km you will enjoy sweeping views across the glacial landscape as you walk beside the base of Cradle Mountain, before steadily descending into spectacular Waterfall Valley to the huts and campsites. Once there, feel proud that you've just completed what many regard as the most difficult day – Day 1 of your Overland journey.

Latinos representing Latinos, or how Lin-Manuel Miranda's SNL performance was spot on
The parody played by the actor on Julian Castro delights the Latinx audience after the SNL slap.
by beatriceg
Latinos representing Latinos, or how Lin-...
By Beatriz García
"I'm Young, I'm diverse, I'm Latinobama. Let's get that hashtag going", was the punchline on the hilarious speech of Hamilton's creator.
The actor was playing democrat Latinx candidate on the last Saturday Night Live episode.
Miranda's cameo of Julian Castro happened in a sketch performing a spoofed CNN's LGBTQ town hall, "Equality in America."
And the audience, especially the Latinx community, felt at his feet.
"As a Democrat, I want to apologize for not being gay –said Miranda's Castro-. But I promise to do better in the future."
Humor, the best electoral campaign
The iconic comedy show was hardly criticized on social media two weeks ago for excluding the Latinx candidate from a debate sketch that included other top Democratic politicians.
"Could you not find a Latino actor to play @JulianCastro?" complained his press secretary, Sawyer Hackett, on twitter.
According to NBC, Lin-Manuel Miranda's father promised Castro's political director, Natalie Montelongo, that his son would portray the candidate on the show.
The parody was so funny that Castro passed him the buck and wrote a post on Miranda's famous Hamilton rap.
"Hey yo, I'm just like my country, I'm young, scrappy and hungry. And I'm not throwing away any shot," Castro tweeted.
lin.jpg
Classy apologies
Saturday Night Live show, which has been 45 years on the air, has a pretty long record of getting success from its mistakes.
Last year, Pete Davidson's joke about the congressman Dan Crenshaw -who had lost an eye in Afganistan- cost the show a big rap.
They solved the situation and gave the Republican a payback moment. Davidson gave Crenshaw some personal pictures and left him to mock:
"This is Pete Davidson. He is as if the metamfetamine of Breaking Bad would be a person", said.
And in 1992, when the Singer Sinead O'Connor was invited to attend the show, she broke into pieces a John Paul II's photography in front of the cameras.
SNL's producers replied quickly, and Joe Pesci apologized in a brilliant monologue and beside the Pope's taped photo.
Eventually, although some electoral promises sound like terrible jokes, there is no doubt that there's always a piece of the truth behind it. Or even a potential voter.

Due to consistent, torrential downpours, the MPFL was cancelled again in week 11. However, the MPBL saw it's own version of March Madness between the Phillies and the Ballers as the game ended in an 11-11 tie with Ryan Smith hitting the biggest free throw of his young career with all zeros on the clock. Matthew Lee was the captain of the Ballers and Jack Krzywicki was the captain of the Ballers. Both teams played the game the right way sharing the ball and defending without fouling. Philly's Finn Canally and Ryan Smith were looking like Ben Simmons and Joel Embiid the way they were sharing the ball with each other and getting into the paint at will as they combined for 7 of their team's 11 points. The Ballers saw big performances from Nico Pizzichini, who hit a big jumper as he was fouled for the and1 and Ethan Nienhuis, who was not only looking to score but to get his teammates involved. Ethan continues to show improvement throughout the season. Players from both teams showed great effort ands sportsmanship:(Liam Ambrose, Jack Krzywicki, Sam Smith, Matthew Lee, James Lee, Tristan Loder, Max Endriss, Sean Thorell, Jacob Scoble and Jackson Stanley).

Ghana imports 50,000 tonnes of palm oil worth about $40m annually [Article]
Ghana currently imports about 50,000 metric tonnes of palm oil annually.
The country also spends between $600 and $800 to import a tonne of the commodity.
This means that the country spends between $30 million and $40 million to import palm oil each year, depending on the price on the world market.
Palm oil is used primarily in food products: cooking oil, shortening, margarine, milk fat replacer and cocoa butter substitute.
Malaysia and Indonesia are leading producers, together accounting for 86% of global production.
Net importation of the palm oil
Africa Regional Director of ProForest, Mr Abraham Baffoe, who disclosed this to The Finder, explained that Ghana has seen huge net importation of the commodity due to lack of technical know-how and best management practices to improve production on the part of local smallholder farmers.
He spoke to the paper in Accra on the sidelines of the third Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO).
Technical know-how lacking
He lamented that even though Ghana has a vast land for palm cultivation, most of these lands are cultivated by smallholder farmers who do not have the technical know-how and best management practices to improve on their productivity.
Yield tonnes per for a hectare low for smallholder farmers
For instance, he said, in oil palm growing areas where local farmers occupy about 80% of the farms, major companies are getting about 16 to 20 tonnes per hectare whereas smallholder farmers in the same landscape are getting about only four to six tonnes per hectare.
Closing the gaps
Mr Baffoe stated that closing the gaps in the sector and producing oil palm sustainably would require concerted efforts from government, regional bodies, research institutions, private financiers, investors and technocrats, to ensure the proper understanding and utilisation of oil palm.
That, he said, would move Ghana from a net importer to net exporter of the commodity.
Tree Crop Development Bill
He was of the view that government was doing much in recent time to harness the potential of the oil palm sector.
He explained that the Tree Crops Development Bill, which is key in ensuring that Ghana moves from being a net importer of palm oil to a net exporting country, is currently with Parliament for deliberation and consequent passage into law to regulate the tree crop sub-sector.
Tree Crop Development Bill before Cabinet
"The bill is currently before Cabinet, and upon its passage, hopefully before the end of the year, would establish the Tree Crops Development Authority (TCDA) that would regulate and ensure the production, pricing and marketing of tree crops, including rubber, oil palm, cashew and shea nuts in the country," he said.
Enormous potential of oil palm
The sector, Mr Baffoe said, has enormous potential for addressing rural poverty and local development.
However, he said, if not planned and implemented very well, "it also has a great potential for social and environmental consequences which we do not want to see".
"We believe this can be done by joining forces with allies who share the same vision and who are ready to forge strategic, mutually beneficial partnerships to work towards set goals," he added.
Third Roundtable Conference
Close to 200 delegates came together yesterday for Africa's third Sustainable Palm Oil Conference, hosted by the RSPO and ProForest, to discuss the urgent need for a long-term sustainable development plan for oil palm production in Africa.
As RSPO's presence increases with certified members in over 15 countries across Africa, and with stringent new principles and criteria in place, the conference provided an ideal platform for a constructive debate around regional vision and renewed commitment from key producing countries.
With high-profile dignitaries, growers, NGOs, financial institutions and consumer goods manufacturers in attendance, it was mutually acknowledged that if African palm oil producing countries achieve their ambition to convert from net importers to net exporters, palm oil production will significantly increase.
Governor of Edo State in Nigeria, Godwin Nogheghase Obaseki delivered a strong message to delegates and the industry.
"If you are not part of the solution, then you are part of the problem. Let me congratulate all of you here today for demonstrating your commitment to a solution. It is in the interests of all of us in Africa to make sustainable palm oil the norm."
In a region where livelihoods are intricately connected to both the palm oil sector and natural resources, and where oil palm growing areas overlap areas of international conservation importance such as High Forest Cover (HFC) countries like Gabon, it is vital that any development is done sustainably, ensuring a balance between palm oil production and nature conservation.
RSPO's Assurance Director, Salahudin Yaacob called for a "long-term sustainable development plan" in the region, stating that "RSPO can only achieve its vision of transforming markets to make sustainable palm oil the norm through collaboration with all stakeholders, from growers to governments and financial institutions to NGOs."
The conference covered the regional implementation of the 2018 RSPO Principles and Criteria; the role of financial institutions in promoting sustainable agriculture; how governments can mainstream sustainability; and opportunities to change the deforestation narrative in African palm oil producing countries.
The new Decent Living Wage Guidance was also socialised, with members as an important tool to help improve livelihoods.
The Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) is a not-for-profit, international membership organisation that aims to unite palm oil's key stakeholders and create a sense of shared responsibility among growers, manufacturers, refiners, retailers, investors and NGOs, as well as governments and consumers, to transform markets to make sustainable palm oil the norm.

Survivor Of Crash That Killed 2 Teens: 'It Was Nothing That Was … Our Fault'
Filed Under:Cajon Pass, David Castaneda, John Cabrera, Michael Baker, Nicole Lyle, Phelan, Serrano High School, Shayne Gretzner
(credit: CBS)
PHELAN (CBSLA.com) — One of the survivors of a crash that took the lives of two teenagers Tuesday night in the Cajon Pass is speaking out.
Nicole Lyle, 18, and John Cabrera, 16, were killed when a dump truck crashed into the PT Cruiser they were riding in.
Three of their friends — Michael Baker, 20, David Castaneda, and Shayne Gretzner, 19 — were hurt and taken to the hospital.
Gretzner, who joined friends and family at a vigil Wednesday night at Serrano High School in Phelan, said the truck, which came from a nearby construction site, collided with their vehicle as they pulled out of a gas station.
"I was looking at my phone and within a matter of 10 seconds of pulling out of that Shell, a diesel just came in about 70 miles an hour up over the embankment and just didn't give us enough time," Gretzner said. "It's hard to accept at the moment. It's only been 24 hours, so it's still setting in."
Gretzner said the group did nothing to contribute to the collision.
"It's nothing that like, it was at our fault, I feel, so it's nothing like, 'Aw, I wish we weren't doing something wrong,'" he said.
The teen said he saw his life flash before his eyes.
"Everything just flashes and that really does happen. I wasn't a believer of that until last night," he said.
Gretzner said he'll remember his friends as active and fun.
"Our whole group was either riding or just hiking or going to the beach," he said.
KCAL9's Crystal Cruz reports Coffman/Parsons, a Caltrans contractor, said the truck driver was experienced and believes the crash was a tragic accident.
The crash is under investigation.

MLS: Houston 2, Los Angeles 1
HOUSTON, May 26 (UPI) -- Andre Hainault's second-half goal capped a Houston rally that carried the Dynamo to a 2-1 decision over struggling Los Angeles Sunday.
After spotting the Galaxy a 1-0 lead, the Dynamo (4-3-4) tied it in the 38th when Brian Ching's shot caromed off the crossbar and went in on off Los Angeles defender Mike Magee for an own-goal.

INDIANAPOLIS – The Indy Fuel, proud ECHL affiliate of the NHL's Chicago Blackhawks and the AHL's Rockford IceHogs, announced a series of roster moves Friday ahead of the club's three-game weekend at Indiana Farmers Coliseum. The Blackhawks have assigned forward Spencer Watson from the IceHogs to the Fuel, while the IceHogs have reassigned defenseman Josh McArdle to Indy. Finally, defenseman Dmitry Osipov has been released from his professional tryout agreement with the IceHogs, and will return to Indianapolis. The Fuel have also announced that forward Craig Puffer and defenseman Braden Hellems have been released from their ECHL contracts.
Watson, 22, returns to the ECHL where he racked up 47 points (22g, 25a) in 47 games to start the season with the Manchester Monarchs. The 5-foot-11, 180-pound forward was acquired by the Blackhawks from the Los Angeles Kings on Feb. 25 in exchange for Matheson Iacopelli, tallying one goal and two assists in 10 games with the IceHogs following the trade.
A native of London, Ontario, Watson has seen action in 95 ECHL games with the Monarchs since joining the professional ranks last season, collecting 47 goals, 45 assists while posting a +25 rating. The seventh round pick of the Kings in the 2014 NHL Entry Draft (No. 209 Overall) played parts of five seasons in the Ontario Hockey League, scoring a total of 147 goals and 154 assists in 274 games with the Kingston Frontenacs and the Mississauga Steelheads.
McArdle, 24, has skated in 27 games for the Fuel this season, logging one goal and four assists. The defenseman has spent much of 2019 with the IceHogs, where he has three points and six penalty minutes in 19 games. A native of Roscoe, Ill., McArdle looks to make his return to the Indy lineup for the first time since Feb. 19, when he chipped in an assist against Wichita before being recalled to Rockford.
Osipov, 22, was loaned to Rockford on March 16, appearing in four games with the IceHogs. The defender from Moskva, Russia made his AHL season debut on March 17 against Texas before picking up an assist on Feb. 23 in a Rockford loss to Milwaukee. With the Fuel, Osipov has appeared in 62 games in 2018-19, recording one goal and 12 assists.

I Can't Unsee That Movie: film news and reviews by Jeff Huston
Spielberg On The Life Or Death Of Indiana Jones, His WEST SIDE STORY, & More (INTERVIEW)
July 5, 2016 July 5, 2016 Jeff Huston
Steven Spielberg isn't saying much about Indy 5, but he will confirm if the popular archeologist finally lives or dies.
In a lengthy feature story about the Big Famous Director – in conjunction with the release of his latest movie The BFG – The Hollywood Reporter looks at Spielberg the filmmaker and mogul, exploring where he's been, where he is, and where he's going.
Possibly the biggest tidbit comes in reference to the next Indiana Jones adventure:
Spielberg says he's "super excited" about that movie, dated for July 2019: "I think this one is straight down the pike for the fans." He won't reveal plot details, except this: "The one thing I will tell you is I'm not killing off Harrison [Ford] at the end of it."
Then, too, is this tease about a likely West Side Story remake, which involves a third collaboration with Spielberg's most celebrated screenwriting partner from Munich and Lincoln:
And then, there's a potential remake of West Side Story — which would be a Fox/MGM co-production — for which (Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award winner) Tony Kushner is working on a script. Spielberg has dreamt of adapting it "for decades," securing rights after trying to get them 15 years ago.

2 thoughts on "Spielberg On The Life Or Death Of Indiana Jones, His WEST SIDE STORY, & More (INTERVIEW)"
peterchattaway says:
A remake? Of such an established classic? Granted, Spielberg has done remakes before — Always was a straightforward remake of an old Hollywood film, Munich and Tintin and The BFG had previously been adapted for television, and Hook basically revisited a famous story — but West Side Story is such a capital-C Classic that it's almost like hearing Spielberg wants to remake Casablanca or Lawrence of Arabia.
Jeff Huston says:
I definitely see this differently than a Casablanca, et al. Given that it's a musical and has been adapted in countless stage incarnations (including more than one Broadway revival), that makes it different than a classic movie for which only one signature production exists.
Then two, for as heralded as West Side Story was in its day (and is even generally respected to this day, maybe more so for its Oscar winning performances and choreography than anything else), it hasn't aged as well or is as beloved as, say, another movie musical classic The Sound Of Music. People won't be up in arms about a WSS movie remake like they would a TSOM movie remake (NBC performing that live is about as close to a screen redo as fans are likely to accept, and even then there were plenty of gripers).
All that to say, I just don't see there being any particularly controversy around Spielberg (especially someone like him) giving this material a go, especially when a new film version could give the gang tension and fighting much more necessary grit and violence than the 1961 version was able to do.

Scripture and Tradition "make up a single sacred deposit of the Word of God, which is entrusted to the Church", and the magisterium is not independent of this, since "all that it proposes for belief as being divinely revealed is derived from this single deposit of faith."

For many religious people revelation comes from God and reveals something about God.

To put it into my own words, saving faith is a free and unmerited gift, granted only to undeserving sinners, according to God's sovereign grace, through which we personally receive an irrevocable share in the full salvation accomplished for us by the Lord Jesus Christ.
It is called sacred because it comes from God. It is called a deposit because it has been left to us by Christ. It deals with faith because it contains what we must believe if we are to be followers of Christ. These two together, Sacred Scripture and Sacred Tradition form this single deposit.
According to Roman Catholic theology, two sources of revelation constitute a single "Deposit of Faith", meaning that the entirety of divine revelation and the Deposit of Faith is transmitted to successive generations in scripture and sacred tradition (through the teaching authority and interpretation of the Church's …

Which procedure(s) best rid a patient of a double chin?
No matter what exercises I do or way I hold my posture, I have a double chin. Which procedure(s) best rid a patient of a double chin?
The treatment of a double chin will depend on several variables. The most common reason for a double chin to be apparent is the presence of excess fat in the submental region. In a young individual who has participated in a program of exercise and proper diet, liposuction or laser liposuction are ideal methods to address the excess fat of the double chin. The treatment is very well tolerated and the recovery is quite rapid.

Diego de Almagro, španski konkvistador, * 1479, Almagro, Španija, † 8. julij 1538, Cuzco, danes Peru.

Prva leta
Diego je bil rojen kot nezakonski sin Juana de Montenegra in Elvire Gutiérrez. Starša sta se razšla že v času materine nosečnosti in Elvirina družina je vse do rojstva prikrivala nosečnost, nato pa so, da bi ohranili njeno čast, malega Diega vzgajali v bližnji vasi Boñales in zatem v Aldei del Rey. Od četrtega leta starosti ga je poučeval stric Hernán Gutiérrez.

Ker je stric slabo ravnal z njim, je pri 15 letih pobegnil od doma, še zadnjič videl mater (ki je medtem imela novega moža), nato pa postal služabnik Luisa de Polanca, enega izmed seviljskih županov. V tem času se je sprl z nekim drugim služabnikom in ga hudo poškodoval. Da bi se izognil kazni, je pobegnil in se potikal po Andaluziji. Med tem je prišlo do odkritja Amerike in Diego se je prijavil v vojsko Pedrariasa Dávile.

Prihod v Ameriko
30. junija 1514 se je odprava izkrcala v kraju Santa María la Antigua del Darién v današnji Panami, kjer se je že prej izkracalo nekaj konkvistadorjev, med njimi tudi Francisco Pizarro.

O Almagrovih prvih letih v Ameriki ni znanega veliko, razen da se je v letih 1514 in 1515 pridružil mornarjem pri več odpravah, a se je vsakič vrnil v Darién, kjer je nato dobil enkomiendo, si postavil hišo in živel od kmetijstva.

Novembra 1515 je na čelu odprave z 260 možmi ustanovil naselbino Villa del Acla, vendar je zaradi bolezni moral načelovanje odpravi prepustiti Gasparju de Espinozi.

Espinoza je že decembra istega leta krenil na 14-mesečno odpravo. V tem času se je Almagro spoprijateljil s Pizarrom in Hernandom de Luquejem, s katerimi je bil član odprave, ter Vascom Núñezom de Balboo, ki je kot poveljnik Acle bil odgovoren za oskrbovanje Espinosove odprave.

Almagro je zatem sodeloval pri koloniziranju Panamskega zaliva, se znova pridružil Espinozovim odpravam, nato pa se je ustalil v novoustanovljenem mestu Panamá, sodeloval pri programih njegove poselitve,ter upravljal svoje in Pizarrovo premoženje. V tem času mu je domačinka Ana Martinez rodila prvega sina z imenom Mozo.

Osvojitev Peruja
Avgusta 1524 so Almagro, Pizarro in Luque dobili dovoljenje za raziskovanje in osvajanje ozemelj južno od Paname. Almagro je ostal v Panami in skrbel za novačenje vojakov in oskrbovanje odprave. Pizarro je medtem odkrival Inkovski imperij v današnjem Peruju. Ko je leta 1532 v bitki v Cajamarci premagal inkovskega kralja Atahualpo, je spočetka skupaj z Almagrom ustanavljal nove naselbine in s tem utrjeval špansko oblast. Pizarro je Almagra poslal osvojit severnoinkovsko mesto Quito. Sebastián de Belalcázar, ki je brez Pizarrovega privoljenja odšel na to odpravo že prej, je bil priča, kako je inkovski general Rumiñahui dal uničiti mesto in neznanokam skriti zlato, tako da ga Španci niso nikoli našli. Tam bi se Pizarrove čete skorajda spopadle z odpravo Pedra de Alvarada, ki so ga iz Mehike govorice o bajeslovnem inkovskem bogastvu privabile v Peru. Na koncu je spor rešil Pizarro, ki je Alvaradu plačal bogato plačilo, da je zapustil Južno Ameriko.

Almagro je zato avgusta 1534, da bi obnovil Pizarrovo zaupanje, na pogorišču Quita ustanovil mesto San Francisco de Quito, štiri mesece kasneje pa je na severu današnjega Peruja ustanovil še eno mesto in ga po Pizarrovem rojstnem kraju poimenoval Villa Trujillo.

Prekinitev s Pizarrom
Do prvih zamer s Pizarrom je pričelo prihajati leta 1533, ko sta osvojila Cuzco, Pizarro pa si je prisvojil večji del bogastva in nagrad. Čeprav je Almagro obogatel, razkošno živel v Cuzcu in pridobil plemiški naziv, ga je vleklo še dlje proti jugu, kjer naj bi se po pripovedovanju staroselcev nahajale ogromne količine zlata. Zato je večino časa in denarja porabil za opremljanje 500 mož, ki so se pripravljali za pot proti jugu.

Leta 1534 je španski dvor razdelil Peru na dva dela. Severnejši del med 1° in 14° južne zemljepisne širine, poimenovan Nueva Castilla, je pripadel Pizarru, južni del med 14° in 25°, poimenovan Nuevo Toledo, pa je pripadel Almagru, ki se je iz Cuzca, katerega guvernerstvo so mu poverili že prej, nemudoma lotil zadnjih priprav na novo ekspedicijo.

Odkritje Čila
Za pot je Almagro zbral 500 vojakov iz Lime in Cuzca, okoli 100 afriških sužnjev in še približno 10.000 Indijancev. Vse skupaj naj bi stalo milijon in pol kastiljskih pesov. Pred odhodom se je povezal z Inki, da bi mu svetovali pri pripravi poti. Nato je poslal predhodnico pod vodstvom Juana de Saavedro, da bi pripravila oporišče s skladiščem zalog in zajetimi domačini, ki bi služili kot sužnji.

3. julija 1535 so zapustili Cuzco. Prečkali so bolivijsko gorovje in jezero Titicaca ter prišli do reke Desaguadero, kjer so postavili oporišče Tupiza. Naslednji postanek je bil v taboru Chicoana, zatem pa so se obrnili proti jugovzhodu in prečkali Ande, kjer je na višini 4.000 metrov zaradi mraza, lakote in utrujenosti umrlo veliko mož, predvsem sužnjev, ki niso bili vajeni teh razmer.

Zaradi tega je Almagro oposlal skupino naprej, da bi med staroselci našli pomoč. Prispeli so v dolino reke Copiapó in tam naleteli na Španca Gonzala Calva Barrientosa, ki ga je Pizarro izgnal zaradi domnevnih kraj dragocenosti iz inkovske odkupnine in se je spoprijateljil z domačini. Tam je Almagro razglasil Čile za kraljevo posest.

Nadaljeval je z raziskovanjem doline reke Aconcagua, kjer so ga domačini sprejeli prijateljsko. Načrte mu je skorajda prekrižal tolmač Felipillo, ki je že prej tolmačil pogajanja med Pizarrom in Atahualpo. Ta je poskušal domačine prepričati k uporu, do katerega pa ni prišlo.

Almagro je nato na nadaljnje raziskave poslal 70 mož z Gomézom de Alvaradom na čelu. Ti so, brez da bi naleteli na omembe vreden odpor, prispeli do rek Ñuble in Itata in se v reinhuelénski bitki spopadli z Mapuči in se nato vrnili.

Slabe novice, ki jih je prinesel Alvarado, spoznanje, da so bile govorice o domnevnem zlatu in bogatih mestih neresnične, in krute zimske razmere so Almagra prepričale, da je odpravo razglasil za popoln neuspeh. Sprva je nameraval stalno ostati v severnem Čilu in ustanoviti vsaj kakšno mesto, ki bi ga poveril svojemu sinu Mozu. Vendar so ga vojaki prisilili, da se je septembra 1536 vrnil v Peru. Pred odhodom je dal opustošiti ozemlje svojih gostiteljev in jih zasužnjil, da so nosili njihovo imetje vse do Peruja.

Vrnitev v Peru
Po napornem prečkanju Atacame je Almagrova odprava leta 1537 prispela v Cuzco z namenom, da si ga dokončno prisvoji in s tem zagotovi dediščino za svojega sina. Leto pred vrnitvijo je inkovski vladar Manco za kratek čas ponovno osvojil Cuzco in močno omajal špansko oblast v Sveti dolini. Almagro ga je povabil, da se v zameno za amnestijo pri španskih oblasteh, če se mu pridruži. Do zavezništva sicer ni prišlo, so pa Almagrovi vojaki uspeli osvojili Cuzco, ker je glavnina vojske Hernánda Pizarra v Andih iskala Manca. Ko se je vrnila v mesto, jo je Almagrova vojska hitro premagala ter zajela Pizarrova brata Hernánda in Gonzala. Francisco Pizarro je poslal vojsko pod poveljstvom Alonsa de Alvarada, da bi rešila njegova brata. 12. julija 1537 jo je Almagro v bitki pri Abancayu premagal. Gonzalo Pizarro in Alvarado sta pozneje uspela pobegniti iz zapora, Almagro pa se je s Franciscom Pizarrom uspel dogovoriti, da bo v zameno za izpustitev Hernánda Pizarra dobil upravljanje Cuzca.

Pizarro, ki se v resnici nikoli ni nameraval odpovedati Cuzcu, si je s tem kupil čas, da je svojo armado usposobil za odločilni boj. Priložnost se je ponudila, ko je Almagro zbolel. Aprila 1538 je bil poražen in zajet v bitki pri Las Salinasu. Hernándo Pizarro ga je poniževal in zavrnil njegovo prošnjo za življenje in posredovanje sporočila španskemu kralju. Slednjič je bil Almagro obsojen na smrt in 8. julija 1538 so ga obglavili in njegovo truplo razstavili na glavnem trgu (Plaza de Armas) v Cuzcu. Zvesta služabnica Margarita je nato prevzela truplo in ga pokopala pod mestno cerkvijo La Merced.

Almagrov sin Diego de Almagro mlajši z vzdevkom Mozo (fant) je 26. junija 1541 umoril Pizarra in s tem maščeval očetovo smrt.

Newly-Released Security Footage Shows Suspect Shoot At Dispensary Employee During Robbery
Thursday, June 23rd 2022, 8:05 pm
By: Brittany Toolis
One week after a metro dispensary was robbed, security footage of the crime was released by Oklahoma City police. Authorities said the suspect got away with thousands of dollars.
Big Buds Cannabis Co. gave News 9 the complete security footage. The store general manager's, Zachary Seresinhe, said the suspect greeted the employee with a smile before he pulled out a gun.
The suspect was inside the store for just over six minutes. During that time, he took nearly $20,000 in cash with him as he walked out the door.
The suspect also left behind a terrified employee and customer who unknowingly walked in the middle of the robbery.
"I don't think there's one emotion to summation it. It's just a lot of different ones," Seresinhe said. "Lots of fear and now anger, frustration."
Emotions still run high a week after the suspect walked into the dispensary. It was a visit that initially began like any other.
"I mean he walked in and was friendly for the first four or five seconds," Seresinhe said. "He was like, 'Hey man, how's it going?' He gets up just a few feet, and then pulls the gun out."
The budtender's shock can be seen in he realizes he's staring down the barrel of a gun. The suspect then handed him tape to tape his ankles before he let the employee know the gun is loaded and fired a shot.
"It initially hit the mat here. This was where it impacted," Seresinhe said. "That could have easily been the inside of his leg."
The bullet ricocheted off the ground and into the floorboard. After a customer walked into the store, the suspect made her tape her ankles together, as well.
He then told her to fill a garbage bag with marijuana. As she did that, the employee was taken to a full safe in the back.
"The owner had intended to pay taxes, so there was extra money in the safe," Seresinhe said. "We had all the envelopes from last month's taxes in the bottom that he took. Usually, there's not that much in there."
The store owner said the suspect got away with nearly $20,000 and a bag full of marijuana. The suspect is still on the run.
Dispensary employees reopened the shop the next day. Some have started to take extra precautions.
"For me, what it took was going to the gun range on and shooting for a while to get used to a gun again," Seresinhe said.
Both the employee and customer didn't have any injuries.

Chris Bey talks potential IMPACT vs. AEW showdown
By Matt Boone
Chris Bey on potential showdown with Kenny Omega
IMPACT Wrestling star and former X-Division Champion Chris Bey recently spoke with Sports Illustrated for an interview covering all things pro wrestling.
Featured below are some of the highlights from the new interview.
On representing IMPACT in a match against Kenny Omega:
"If we wrestle, I'll be wearing the IMPACT flag when we do. I'll test my skills against anyone from AEW. They can all learn a lesson from me in the art of finesse."
On how he's grateful for IMPACT giving him a chance:
"I have been given a chance in IMPACT to work with the best. I want to be the best, so that means I have to constantly evolve. I love what I do, so when I get into the ring with guys like Willie Mack, Eddie Edwards, Rohit or TJP, I'm also learning from their style. They're teaching me how to grow as a performer. I want to keep growing. I don't think I'm the best in the world, but right now, I'm the best version of myself. I have the ability to be better tomorrow, and then better than that the day after. Over time, I want people to think of Chris Bey when they think of wrestling."
On giving fans the same sensation wrestling gave him:
"I never got into this business to become famous. I am here to give people the same feeling that wrestling gave me. Watching is how I escaped from my reality, and I want to give that back. That's my purpose in this world. I wouldn't be where I am today without wrestling, so it's very important to give that energy right back. I want to reach out, connect, and respond to everybody. I want to motivate people to go chase their dreams."

Pirelli's objective: double P-brand sales in 3 years
MILAN, Italy (May 28, 2002) - You can't think of Pirelli without thinking flash.
The Italian tire maker prides itself on high- performance products and cutting-edge technology. But in a way, the company's also about art, heritage and history.
Tire dealers attending Pirelli Tire North America's (PTNA) Partner's Meeting May 14-15 in Milan experienced a bit of both cultures as the Rome, Ga.-based unit of Pirelli S.p.A. unveiled plans to double Pirelli brand sales in North America to $500 million over the next three years.
To announce its intentions, PTNA chose as a venue the 15th century restored villa, La Bicocca degli Arcimboldi, located on the grounds of Pirelli's Bicocca factory complex in Milan.
In a second-floor conference room adorned with classic frescos on the walls, company executives outlined to 50 current and prospective U.S. dealers their strategic plan to exploit Pirelli's high-performance strengths in a market that continues to move more toward that segment.
Then, as if to shock them away from their classical surroundings, dealers were whisked off to the nearby MIRS (Modular Integrated Roboticized System) test factory where they were shown one of the most sophisticated and highly technical tire manufacturing systems in the world.
No longer burdened by its failed 1988 acquisition of the former Armstrong Tire Co., PTNA is regrouping around its high performance roots at a time when "the market is coming to Pirelli," company officials said.
Sales of ultra-high-performance tires are growing rapidly in the U.S.—up 23 percent in 2001 over 2000, they told dealers—leading right to the heart of the Pirelli tire lineup.
With 50 percent of its sales coming from this product category, Pirelli is positioned to take advantage of this trend, they said.
To reach its sales goals, PTNA is counting on securing its first original equipment contracts in the U.S. as well as signing new replacement market distribution.
The company, which resumes management of its North American tire sales and customer service July 1 after ending an arrangement with Cooper Tire & Rubber Co., also intends to increase its share of market with existing dealers, said Guy Mannino, PTNA president.
"This is not a very ambitious plan" to double sales in the U.S., Canada and Mexico, said Francesco Gori, managing director of Pirelli's tire sector worldwide, considering the company is starting with a zero share of the OEM market.
Currently, PTNA has about 400 dealers and 5,000 points of sale in the U.S. and is focusing all of its replacement sales efforts through the dealer channel. "We're too small to afford to be in different and conflicting channels of distribution in America," Mr. Gori said.
Mr. Mannino said dealers will see more Pirelli tires on vehicles imported to North America as well as from new OE contracts with U.S. auto makers. This will have a positive effect on replacement sales, he predicted.
That point sounded good to Carroll Perry, director of sales and marketing at Colony Tire Corp. who attended the meeting on behalf of his Edenton, N.C.-based dealership. "We like the product and the technology they bring," Mr. Perry said of Pirelli, which his dealership currently sells in its metro stores. "What we're looking for is more demand for it in our area."
With many of Colony Tire's 35 retail outlets in rural areas, the company doesn't experience an overwhelming clamor for high-performance tires. "The OE position Pirelli is trying to obtain will help increase the need for Pirelli tires in our area," he said.
And those vehicle contracts could come sooner rather than later, according to Mr. Mannino, who expects Pirelli to secure an OE deal with one of the Big 3 U.S. auto makers by the end of this year, satisfying a goal the tire manufacturer has had for years.
With an expanded retail base and more sales to auto makers, "the combined effect of this should be an increase in market share," he said.
Gaining new OE business is a key part of Pirelli's growth strategy. But in recent years, the tire maker has had to make up for accounts it lost in the mid-1990s in Europe. At the time, it failed to keep up with a market shift by European vehicle makers which began using all-season tires on cars imported to the U.S. rather than summer tires. "That left us behind, so we had to catch up," Mr. Mannino said.
Now with a half million Pirelli tires fitted on European cars coming to the U.S., "we're pretty much back in volume to where we were in the mid-1990s," he said.
That number is likely to double, said Franco Carini, vice president of OE sales for Pirelli worldwide. By 2005, he aims to have 1 million Pirelli tires fitted on new cars imported into and produced in the U.S. annually.
To support the company's replacement and OE efforts, Pirelli is launching a worldwide print advertising campaign that will break in the U.S. in June. Targeted at affluent high-performance and ultra-high-performance customers, the ads will stress Pirelli's position as original equipment on some of the world's finest vehicles. In later versions, the ads may discuss the safety of the company's tires.
This emphasis on safety piqued the interest of tire dealer Dan Clark, who heads up the small Great Lakes Tire Group and owns two tire stores in Michigan—Spartan Tire in Brighton and Tire Warehouse in Orion.
"Safety is very understated" in terms of tires sales, he said. "At the retail level, that's the last thing (customers) think about," he said. "We're just pushing tires out there getting the best deal and the best price."
At Pirelli's test track in Vizzola, Italy, outside of Milan, Mr. Clark saw for himself how Pirelli has raised the bar in terms of high-speed tire safety and handling, getting the chance to test two new tires introduced at the meeting. He and other dealers drove on the new P6 Four Seasons, an all-season high-performance tire offered at both the OE and replacement levels, and the P Zero Nero, a high-performance tire targeted at the fast-growing tuner market. Testing in-cluded wet and dry handling as well as high-speed braking.
"Pirelli, as far as I could see, does a fabulous job in research and development in areas that contribute to vehicle safety," Mr. Clark said, adding he plans to take on the line in his own stores and will recommend it to the Great Lakes Tire Group.
To bolster Pirelli's quest for greater market share, the tire maker is installing its MIRS technology at a $100 million tire plant under construction at its headquarters in Rome, Ga.
Each MIRS module features six building robots and two transfer robots, which construct tires in a continuous operation. The robots handle the entire production cycle from compounding to finished-product, without human contact and with minimal storage requirements.
Besides automation, MIRS improves product quality, increases plant efficiency, uses less energy and is highly flexible, making the production of one tire per size a practical possibility, Pirelli said when it introduced the technology in July 2000.
It also allows for quicker mold changes, requiring only 20 minutes under MIRS compared with 375 minutes in the conventional Pirelli process.
By the end of the year, Pirelli expects to have three MIRS production modules, each capable of producing 125,000 tires annually, in operation at Rome, company officials said. The production run will consist of HP and UHP passenger and light truck tires as well as run-flat products, with the entire output dedicated to the North American market. The plant has room for 19 MIRS modules, Pirelli executives said, and could be expanded should additional capacity be needed.
"I was very impressed with the plant," Colony Tire's Mr. Perry said. "I've been in a dozen other plants and they seem to have an edge in quality with this MIRS technology."
Orland Wolford, president and CEO of TBC Corp.'s Tire Kingdom retail chain, based in Riviera Beach, Fla., also was intrigued with the new robotic manufacturing technology, noting "it puts a lot of consistency in their product."
PTNA, Mr. Wolford said, "did a fine job of showing all of the new technology and also of presenting the facts that the V- and Z-rated business is growing rapidly.
"Pirelli has a good name in high performance," he continued. "I'm anxious to talk with them in June about their programs."

The Friends of St Cecilia's Hall annually invite applications for Student Bursaries to assist with costs of travel, research, conference attendance and professional preparation in connection with early music and early music instrument technology.
The range of research and activity is fascinating, covering specialist early lute repertoire; evolution of bel canto style; baroque ensemble performance practice; and the development of the flute in Scotland with particular reference to iconography. Such awards are made each year from a dedicated Bursary Fund which is sustained partly by generous donations and partly by fund-raising activities like small domestic concerts for Friends and guests; the sale of CDs, postcards and refreshments; and our Edinburgh Festival Fringe concert series.
Friends of St Cecilia's bursary awards 2018 are pleased to announce that we received a good range of applications for the 2018 bursary awards, and the committee (made up of Andrew Mackie, Arnold Myers, Eleanor Smith, John Kitchen and Willie Hendry) agreed that all of the applications this year were more than worthy of awards.
Carey Andrews has just finished her third year of undergraduate studies at the University of Edinburgh, and asked for a bursary to fund her attendance at an opera masterclass with renowned tenor Alan Oke, where she was studying excerpts from The Marriage of Figaro.
Caroline Leseman-Elliot will be graduating this summer with a first class degree in music from the University of Edinburgh, and going on to study for a masters degree in musicology at Royal Holloway in the autumn. Her bursary project relates to her studies in music written for the Church by female composers, and will involve traveling to archives across Belgium and France to study manuscripts.
Eric is now studying for a PhD at the University of Southampton where his focus is Italian lute music. His bursary application was to support the formation of a quartet of musicians to explore the two contrasting musical styles prevalent in early Venice and how they influenced each other.
Daniel Wheeldon is studying for a PhD at the University of Edinburgh, on keyed guitars of late 18th-century London and 19th-century Germany. He is a talented instrument maker and uses these skills in his research as well as working with the curatorial staff at St Cecilia's Hall. Daniel's bursary application was to help cover the costs of materials for a replica instrument he is making as part of his PhD research.
The Kellie Consort founded in 2015, is made up of outstandingly talented young singers and instrumentalists, with a connection to Scotland, who wish to develop their skills in baroque performance practice to the highest level. In 2018 they have drawn together two projects based on the cantatas of J.S. Bach, with mentorship from some of the most renowned experts in the performance of this repertoire. The bursary committee agreed to donate towards the cost of the second of these two projects, which will run between 24 and 31 July, specifically to cover the cost of venue hire in Perth, Edinburgh and Glasgow.
£650 to Elizabeth Ford for the acquisition of a modern copy of a Renaissance flute to enhance her understanding of the development of the early flute and its music in Scotland. Her post-doctoral studies will give major focus to the iconography of the ceilings at Crathes Castle.
£700 to Tom Wilkinson to help set up the pre-professional baroque group, the Kellie Consort.
£650 to Brianna Robertson- Kirkland for attendance at a bel canto summer school in Dublin, run by Emma Kirkby.
We are always enormously grateful to Friends and members of the public who help us to maintain our Bursary Fund by contributing very kind donations. If you would like to join us in enabling today's talented students to extend their specialist knowledge and enhance their professional readiness, please send your gift to our Treasurer (contact details below*) indicating that you wish it to be applied specifically to the St Cecilia's Bursary Fund. All donations, of whatever size, are truly appreciated.
If you would like to set up a standing order to give regularly to this Fund, just ask the Treasurer to send you an appropriate form. It is useful if you tell us whether you are a UK tax-payer and are happy to assign Gift Aid on your donation, to allow us to reclaim tax you have paid.
Bursary holders report on how they have used their awards in our newsletter, Soundboard and Friends website. They keep in close touch with the Friends long after the year of their award. You will be able to track their progress and see the effect of your gift in their development.
Chairman, The Friends of St Cecilia's Hall and Museum.
Eric Thomas, a PhD candidate studying lute at the University of Southampton, towards expenses for participation in workshops at the Leipzig Improvisation Festival for Early Music.
We look forward to reading accounts of their bursary experiences in future editions of Soundboard.
We are aiming to have set dates in the year when we could offer Spotlight Tours of St Cecilia's (30 minutes duration) in a variety of languages for visitors.
We would like to be able to cover French, Spanish, Italian, German and Mandarin – but would be very happy to add to this list.
We are now seeking volunteers for this activity. The Language Tour Guides would get "into the swing" via a training package that would consist of a short summary of notes on the building (collection by e-mail / post), followed by a one-hour combined tour / question and answer session at St Cecilia's from our curators, and finally a short spell of "buddy tours" alongside curators until the language guides feel comfortable leading tours alone.
We are reaching out via several channels in search of such volunteers, but would be particularly pleased if any Friends who are fluent in a language would be interested in participating.

Was That Iron Lad in the MOM Trailer?
February 22, 2022 • Multiverse of Madness • Young Avengers
BY MATT TUCK
IG@matt.tuck.writer
FB@ The Comic Blog
Was that Iron Man, Captain Marvel, or something else in the Multiverse of Madness trailer? A high-resolution image making the rounds is leading many to believe Iron Lad is on his way to the MCU.
The moment in question involves a glowing figure who zips across the screen for only a moment. At first, many fans assumed that it was Tom Cruise's Iron Man from a different dimension. Others wondered if it was a Captain Marvel variant. If Kang is involved in MOM, it could very well be another Young Avenger.
There is an 8k close up of the figure in question, and assuming that is not an altered image, he does resemble Jonathan Majors, the actor who portrayed He Who Remains/Kang in Loki. Only, the soaring figure appears younger than Majors. That has theorists curious if that would make him Iron Lad, another Nathaniel Richards variant from the Multiverse.
In the comics, this version of Kang followed in Iron Man's footsteps, creating his own armor based on Tony Stark's designs. He journeyed through time and joined the Young Avengers. That could make MOM another piece to the YA puzzle. America Chavez is set to make a large impact in her MOM debut, and she was a Young Avenger in the comics. The Disney+ shows have been centered on the teenage superhero team with each show introducing an element to the YA story. After all, WandaVision introduced Scarlet Witch's children, Wiccan and Speed; The Falcon and the Winter Soldier featured a Patriot cameo; Loki set the groundwork for Iron Lad via He Who Remains/Kang; and Hawkeye spotlighted Kate Bishop. Wiccan and Speed could return as teenagers in MOM, while fellow Young Avengers Riri Williams and Kamala Khan are set to star in their own Disney+ shows.
It all adds up to a massive push for the Young Avengers as they appear set to take over the Disney+ corner of the MCU. That makes the notion of Iron Lad appearing in MOM all the more plausible.
AN OPPORTUNE TIME TO BUY
The prospect of Iron Lad joining America Chavez in Multiverse of Madness gives collectors another reason to want Young Avengers #1. Marvel is shifting the focus to the teenagers, and it could happen very soon. Of course, Kevin Feige has not been secretive about this. You can look at the recent trend of Marvel movies to see that Disney is gearing the MCU more and more toward a teenage audience, especially on Disney+. With the different streaming series seemingly being a launching pad for the Young Avengers, it is clear that Marvel/Disney has big plans for the YA.
Believe it or not, the values are down for the standard edition of YA #1, at least for the moment. The most recent sale was for $800 for a graded 9.8. That's more than $100 off the 2021 fair market value, though it's still well above 2020's $314 average sale price. Out of 34 sales so far this year, only five of those have been for over $1k. Compare that to 2021 when December alone had six $1k+ sales.
WIZARD WORLD LOS ANGELES SKETCH COVER
Traditionally, the sketch edition brings a much higher price than the standard edition. Why wouldn't it? This is the modern equivalent to Giant-Size X-Men #1 with the debut of a new team and several new faces that are bound for mainstream popularity. Naturally, the edition with the fewest copies printed would make for the biggest earner. Even this behemoth has been off the mark in 2022, which is good for buyers.
Two years ago, the graded 9.8 sketch edition was averaging $576, and that seemed like an inflated price at the time. Last year, that FMV ballooned to nearly $1,300. Along the way, it scored a record-breaking $2,250. By November and December, the prices had leveled out to $1,500-$1,700. So far this year, there hasn't been a sale for more than $1,200, which happens to be the lowest prices the 9.8 has seen since June. If you have been waiting for a time to invest, this could be it.
Again, here is another Young Avengers #1 edition that has dipped since last year. Like many comics, the director's cut broke records in 2021. In July, a 9.8 sold for $950, and it finished the year with sales in the $500-$650 range. This year has told a different story. The biggest sale was the first one when a copy went for $713 on January 3. Since then, there has been a steady decline in FMV. Prices gradually dipped below $600 before dropping under $500. So far this month, there hasn't been a sale for more than $460. That's not a bad thing, at least for buyers. With so much speculation surrounding all editions of YA #1, the values are due for a rebound in the near future.
YOUNG AVENGERS #2
Despite values being down, Young Avengers #1 is still too pricey for many collectors. For those looking to get their hands on an alternate Iron Lad key, YA #2 could do the trick. This issue featured the alternate Nathaniel Richards' origin story prior to being revealed as a Kang variant. Not only that, but this issue also contains the second appearance of the Young Avengers as well as the moment Scott's Lang's daughter, Cassie, is given superpowers. That could have implications in the MCU, since Cassie is depicted as a teenager now, and the speculation is that she will join the YA when they advance to either Disney+ or the silver screen.
Graded at a 9.8, prices for YA #2 are half of those for even the director's cut Young Avengers #1, but that's not to say this comic is cheap. Already this year, YA #2 has sold for $219, which is nearing last year's record of $256. In 2021, it averaged $158 over 20 sales, so this one defies the trends and is on the way up at the moment.
Collectors have been more aware of Young Avengers #5 thanks to Hawkeye. As Kate Bishop's key issues hit the accelerator, many buyers took notice of this issue because it is Kate's first cover appearance. Granted, she's partially concealed, but it is a milestone moment all the same.
What should make you take a second look at this issue ties to Iron Lad. After being established as a variant, this version of Nathaniel Richards is abducted by Kang, who takes him back to the 30th Century. Before Kang leaves, he removes Nathaniel's armor and reprograms it to become a third version of Vision. This particular Vision is a combination of the original Vision and Nathaniel's memories. That could become a plot point for either MOM or a future Scarlet Witch project as Wanda Maximoff mourns the loss of her husband. That would up the stakes for this issue in a hurry.
There has only been one 9.8 sold in 2022, and it brought a record $225 on February 11. Last year, there were only four 9.8s sold online, none of which exceeded $175. Those prices would look like pocket change by comparison if the third Vision is created in the MCU.
The list of reasons to own Young Avengers keys grows by the day. With each new project from Marvel Studios, more direct connections to the YA are introduced. It's clear that Disney/Marvel plan to make them a centerpiece for the future MCU. If we see Iron Lad in MOM, those YA keys will hit the afterburners.

There's also an even rarer variant of the Wizard World Los Angeles Sketch Cover, for anyone interested. The Wizard Authentic Edition is out there. Unfortunately, the signatures on them were not witnessed, so you can only get a green label if submitted to CGC, though CGC recognizes them as Wizard Authentic Editions. They have Wizard hologram stickers applied to the covers. I believe there were only several hundred of these of any given issue that Wizard produced, one of which was Young Avengers #1 sketch cover.
