Russell Morris is an Australian music legend. His career spans more than 50 years. He carved hits like The Real Thing and Wings of an Eagle in the 60s and 70s that are not considered a part of Australian Music Culture.
In 2012 after 40 years of rock Russell embarked on a labour of love to tell Australian stories through blues. Sharkmouth, the first in a trilogy, re-established Russell as a creative force in the Australian music industry. He was awarded a Platinum award and rewarded with an ARIA award for the album.
In 2018 after three successful blues albums, Russell returned to the studio and returned to his roots to make Black and Blue Heart, a rock album with production by Powerfinger's Bernard Fanning and Nick DiDia who has worked with Springsteen and Pearl Jam.
Black and Blue Heart is a stunning record that starts by rocking you and end by tugging at your emotions.
In a Noise11 special edition, Russell Morris talks us through his latest masterpiece, Black and Blue Heart.

In Zoom meeting, Gelber says future of entertainment district 'needs to be on the ballot' – WSVN 7News | Miami News, Weather, Sports
By Layla 1 year ago
MIAMI BEACH, FLA. (WSVN) – Miami Beach Mayor Dan Gelber and former Miami Beach Mayor Philip Levine addressed comments they made during a Zoom meeting with developers and business owners where Gelber said the future of South Beach's entertainment district "needs to be on the ballot."
In audio leaked from the Sept. 13 online meeting, Gelber is heard saying, "I commit to you this, if you want something on the ballot, because it needs to be on the ballot, I'll put it on the ballot."
Gelber and Levine said they met with various developers to discuss the future of the entertainment district.
"There are six commissioners. Two of them are going to be new coming on. We need to utilize whatever influence we have to push those six commissioners to follow the vision and the agenda of the mayor and the manager to make the city safer," said Levine. "In other words, nothing can happen unless we exercise our power."
The audio was first sent to Miami New Times. 7News learned the meeting was held on Zoom.
While some question the comments made during that meeting, Levine defended what was said.
"You had business people, you had developers, you had residents that are basically saying, 'We want to change that entertainment district,'" he said.
Among the business owners reacting to the leaked audio is David Wallack, the owner of Mango's Tropical Cafe on Ocean Drive.
"Certainly, something doesn't smell right," he said.
The meeting follows a year of rampant crime in the area and an ongoing effort to roll back last call to 2 a.m.
"If you think that cancer is a marketable commodity, then I guess Ocean Drive and the entertainment district is something people would want to buy," said Levine. "They don't want to buy it."
The former mayor blamed the unrest on a handful of Ocean Drive hot spots.
"The only one that's pushing the story in [Miami] New Times that you're talking about is three or four bars on Ocean Drive that are holding our city hostage, that are making our city unsafe," he said during a phone interview.
But Wallack said the situation is more complicated.
"It's not localized to Ocean Drive, Collins Avenue, Washington. It should be clean and safe, and that's what we've worked for, for 30 years," he said.
Gelber, meanwhile, argued this was not a private or secretive meeting, and he stands behind his words.
"I'm proud to say that I want to reform this area, and if my colleagues won't do it, I'll ask the voters," he said.
Gelber said they were discussing the first part of his 12-point plan for the city, specifically the third item.
The mayor pointed to what his plan says after each item: "ballot item if necessary."
"I'm not sure why [the New Times] thought this was in any way surprising because it's been reported in other newspapers that I say it quite regularly," he said.
Wallack said things have been in decline since he saw an absence of police patrolling South Beach starting in 2014.
"The taking away of police from Ocean Drive in 2014 created the unlawfulness that became prevalent in the streets from that, and it only got worse when 2020 came and all the businesses were closed," he said.
Last year, police closed down Ocean Drive to traffic.
"You've opened it up to a street party, because it just filled the void," said Wallack. "That seems to be what was planned: to create a managed decline in property value so that developers can come in and buy it up cheap."
But Levine said area residents want to see this reform take place.
"If the commissioners, if the elected officials, are unable or unwilling to do what needs to be done, what we saw are residents coming together, putting money where their mouths is in the future, and they will put these issues on the ballot to let the people of Miami Beach decide, because enough is enough," he said.
Voters will decide on the rollback of last call to 2 a.m. in November.

He's still serving life though for the murder of his ex fiancée boyfriend or something like that.

Fold me like one of your lawn chairs - He's still serving life though for the murder of his ex fiancée boyfriend or something like that.
Yeah but he's still hoping to appeal the other case

There were a lot of holes in the Odin Lloyd trial. I wouldn't be shocked if he won an appeal. He's still got the money for the lawyers
Jeepster April 14, 2017, 10:13pm #11

He was paranoid about Lloyd ratting him out for these murders lol
Barbasol April 16, 2017, 5:54pm #14
How does this acquittal make him a burden on their salary cap or am I just not understanding something?
dtom417 April 16, 2017, 6:40pm #15
Absolutely nothing , he was already convicted in the other case which makes this verdict not matter at all . He is in jail for life .
MMARAIDER April 17, 2017, 10:51am #16

Chipotle (CMG) Tests New Technology to Improve Guest Experience
September 28, 2022, 2:27 PM ·3 min read
Chipotle Mexican Grill, Inc. CMG is leaving no stone unturned to enhance its employee and guest experience. In this regard, the company recently announced that it is piloting advanced technologies.
Recently, the company started piloting two new technologies in its restaurants. These technologies will help the company to deliver accurate forecasting, the best quality and increased convenience for digital guests.
Curt Garner, chief technology officer said, "The new kitchen management system has alleviated manual tasks for our crew and given restaurant managers the tools they need to make informed in the moment decisions, ultimately enabling them to focus on an exceptional culinary and an outstanding guest experience."
To provide a seamless, convenient experience for guests, the company is enhancing its app functionality. The company's new kitchen management system is in a testing phase at eight restaurants in Orange County, CA.
During the first quarter of 2022, Chipotle initiated testing of an autonomous kitchen assistant, Chippy, which integrates culinary traditions with artificial intelligence to make tortilla chips. The initiative involves robotics collaboration, thereby allowing the company to focus on other culinary tasks in the restaurant without sacrificing the quality and deliciousness of the item. Apart from this, the company has also rolled out a new labor scheduling program and initiated testing radio frequency identification technology to enhance traceability and inventory systems.
In the past three months, the Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) company's shares have increased 19.4% compared with the industry's gain of 3.5%. Notably, the company has been benefiting from its digital efforts, Chipotlane add-ons and marketing initiatives. This, along with strength in digital sales, rise in menu prices, new restaurant openings and higher restaurant-level operating margins have been aiding the company. A solid financial position with no debt is also encouraging.

Hi. One of my students would like to start learning English. He is a secondary school learner. He told me that he would like to go into communication with somebody, and be understood. I would like to help him, but I don't know from where to start. Are there any methods I should follow ? It should be taken into consideration that he has no prior knowledge of English apart from the alphabet. Thank you in advance for your response.


Gee, I feel so much like Irish Spring! I discovered the Gender Genie, and copied all the text from my front page here at Carmel Sundae. It thinks I'm a man.
It's funny, I've been accused (and occasionally praised) for having a masculine writing style before. Usually the praise comes from men: "You are so logical, you sound like a man!" As though logic were foreign to women. Sure, the tear ducts and right-left brain connections may work better than in a man, but it takes organization, logic, and a "male" work ethic to keep a household running. My very masculine husband has trouble figuring out how to organize the dishwasher when he loads it. I can't complain about his domestic skills, because he can cook my socks off, but let's just say he's better with words, knowledge, and cayenne than he is with logical organization. He would be the last to argue with me on this.
Why is it, then, that men seem to think they are complementing a woman when they say she's like a man? For that matter, why is it that extreme feminists often seem to think that a woman should be insulted if she's accused of womanliness?
I like being a woman. I don't see any contradiction between being a woman and using logic, and I don't see any reason that my more liberal sisters need to rescue me from my emotions, my long hair, or, indeed, my female logic. Being a woman is a joy: life without being married to my Charming and Patient Husband would be disappointing and dull. No amount of masculine recognition could ever compensate for having to live a life without being the wife of this man.
So let the Gender Genie say what he will. I have no doubt he's male, because women can tell the difference.

Q: When to use ngOnChanges vs Pipes So far on my Angular journey, I have not had a great deal of need for pipes.
A common theme so far is that most components have an @Input of some data coming in, which may need some operating on before being used by the template.
This leaves a rather dirty situation:
// data coming in
@Input data: MyDataInterface;

// data after massage, it is this which powers the template
config: MyDataInterfaceAfterMassage;

// the masseuse works in here and creates a new "config" object
ngOnChanges() {

}

But then it occurred to me, I guess I could also do this with Pipes but not sure on where the distinction is made.
Given the choice between ngOnChanges and Pipe, under what circumstance would you use one over the other when relative to binding to the template?

A: Fast and easy : ngOnChanges is used to detect a change from a variable decorated with @Input, and pipes are used to display data that are displayed in a particular format, but their value isn't changed.

Q: Arduino SPI connector vs D11, D12, D13 pins I have a problem with an arduino mega. I am playing with an SPI Bus.
If a connect MOSI to D11 pin, MISO on D12 and D13 on SCK, it does not work.
BUT, if i connect MOSI, MISO and SCK on the small connector (6 pins next CPU), everything works !
I do not understand why this 6 pins connector is connected to SPI whereas D11-D12-D13 are not connected.
Is there something to do (hardware/software) in order to activate spi bus on D11-D12-D13 pins ?
Thanks a lot

A: According to the official Arduino SPI reference, you are using the wrong pins for Arduino Mega:

*

*pin 51 or ICSP-4: MOSI

*pin 50 or ICSP-1: MISO

*pin 52 or ICSP-3: SCK

*pin 53                 : SS (slave)

Pins 11, 12 and 13 are used for Arduino Uno, 101, Duemilanove.

I conclude with two observations:

*

*the ICSP header, shown in the following picture, is consistent among all boards.

*the board connections operate at different voltage levels, so it always a good idea to check the documentation before connecting any cable

Adelaide International 2: Alison Riske and Madison Keys set up derby for title clash
by ABBEY JOHNSON | VIEW 2270
On the WTA results with
Alison Riske and Madison Keys will play each other for the Adelaide International 2 title on Saturday. Earlier, both Americans came through their respective semi-finals in a completely contrasting manner on Friday. Earlier, Riske advanced to the final after her opponent, the fourth-seeded Tamara Zidansek withdrew before their match with an injury to her abdomen.
The second semi-final between the last seed left in the fray – third seed Coco Gauff – and Keys was a riveting affair that went past two hours. The younger American gained the upper hand to start proceedings and went up a set but was convincingly pegged back by Keys who completed the comeback, 3-6, 6-2, 7-5 in two hours and eight minutes.
Adelaide International 2: Alison Riske and Madison Keys renew rivalry
Keys was broken only twice across the match – once in the first set and the second time, in the deciding set. In the second set, en route to effectuating her comeback, Keys saved all five break points she faced.
In comparison, while Gauff saved all three break points she faced in the opening set, she lost her serve twice each across the latter two sets. After her win, Keys said, "The biggest thing I was really trying to focus on was just trying to get in patterns that I wanted to play.
I felt like I was letting her dictate a little bit too much. Just really trying to push her back off the baseline a little bit more, move her a little bit more, which is tough because she's very good defensively".
The Adelaide International 2 final between Alison Riske and Madison Keys will be the seventh time the two compatriots will be facing each other although they haven't played for almost seven years, going back to the first round of the 2016 US Open.
Meanwhile, in terms of finals reached, this is Keys' first final since she contested the 2020 Brisbane International final (lost to Karolina Pliskova) while Riske's playing her first final since winning the 2021 Linz Open (defeated Jaqueline Cristian).

Sickle Cell Community, a group founded for the control of Sickle Cell Disease, SCD, in Kano State has said that about 150,000 infants die of the ailment annually in Nigeria, representing 8% of infant mortality rate in the country.
A member of the Board of Trustees of the group, Shema'u Adam Imam, stated this at the launch of the Sickle Cell Community Trust Fund to support people living with Sickle Cell Disorder, held in Kano.
She said Nigeria has the highest burden of SCD in the world and the country is also the top sickle cell endemic country in Africa.
Imam explained that the Trust Fund, established in collaboration with Community Health Research Initiative, CHRI, and Centre for Sustainable Development and Communications Initiative, CSDCI, was a financing mechanism to support the less privileged persons living with sickle cell.
She noted that the fund would cushion the soaring economic condition of parents of the sickle cell patients, especially in purchasing drugs and payment of screening and investigations.
Shemau Adam maintained that poor availability of resources to the public health facilities, welfare sectors and economic inflation are seriously hampering access to appropriate medical and social services.


The Hilton Newark Airport is a first class hotel located adjacent to Newark International Airport. This full service hotel is prepared to meet the needs of the leisure or business traveler. The Hilton boasts seven, deluxe, luxury shuttle vans that can pick up/drop off guests at either the airport or Newark's Penn Station. The hotel offers a mobile check in process, where guests can register on the shuttle and have their room key ready upon arrival.
The Hilton's guestrooms offer a contemporary dcor of pleasant earth tones and they are all well appointed with modern amenities. Although this hotel is next to an airport, the rooms have triple paned windows to ensure a quiet and peaceful night's rest. For their guests' convenience, the hotel has a restaurant and bar. The Hilton Newark Airport is convenient to transportation hubs and offers simple access to the attractions of nearby New York City.
Is this a Hilton or a Motel 6?
What a shock. I went for a meeting at Newark and my company chose the Hilton Newark.
1. The pickup at the airport by the hotel's shuttles was 45 minutes late each way. The driver Percy made excuses of being 10 minutes late.
Obviously Lack of management supervision on him. Other companies the driver keeps contact with the hotel of his whereabout throughout the trip.
2. The entrance is blocked, the revolving doors are closed. You must open the heavy doors yourself and then pull your luggage. Not welcoming.
3. At the reception Michele and Mellissa were extremely cold and inhospitable and certainly not representing Hilton here no training or supervision how to treat Hilton guests.
executive lounge should clearly state this on their website. Hey if the pool is closed, hotels list that so why not the executive lounge. This is important fact what to expect beforehand.
5. The room is EXTREMELY Dark UNBELIEVABLE. The docor is all a darker shade of grey. The walls are painted dark grey. There is a large rusty iron train wheel up on a shelf over the bed. Do I really want to see this, in a dark room? No. What does rust signify to a customer who wants a clean room, especially expecting a clean Hilton room. Their website does not reflect true design of the hotel room.
6. The restaurant dinner food is Mediocre and expensive for what it is.
7. Breakfast was just horrible!! The offering of old bagel and muffin were stale. When asked for strong coffee they told me that I will be charge. Just horrible. Michelle told me we don't have a lounge but we offer you breakfast and I discovered that I cannot have cup of coffee, seriously!
8. Checked out with Carolyn the front office director was ok but not up to Hilton.
This is not a Hilton hotel style or service nor hospitality. I would rate this and describe this simply as a MOTEL 6 property.
Unless you want to pay Hilton prices and get a Motel 6, recommend to Avoid, Avoid, Avoid.
The Hilton Slogan " Make it Right" at this Hilton Newark Airport is Wrong Wrong Wrong all the way!!!
Stayed two nights due to a flight cancellation. In general, a nice hotel. More specifically, Melissa at the front desk was a huge help in managing the airline's payments for the room, versus my needing to put potential days not yet paid by them onto my credit card. I needed to change reservations a couple times, including when the airline changed my replacement flight, and she was friendly and eager to help throughout.
The hotel is good but the shuttle service is quite poor. For the number of people who take this shuttle from the airport having two small vehicles is simply insufficient. It is bad enough that the shuttle does not pick up at terminals and guests have to take the air train to "parking 4" stop but it makes it even worse that the shuttle is often gets full and people have to wait for 30 min for the next one. I only use this hotel because of Hilton gold level membership, otherwise I would go for a different hotel with better service.
Very nice hotel with great staff. The beds are extremely comfortable and the rooms are beautifully decorated. However, the parking leaves a lot to be desired and the food prices are way too high for the quality of food. Other than that, the stay was amazing and we would stay there again.
Thank you for your review. Wish you had a better experience with the food, if you care to share some details, please reach out for me directly. Thanks again.
Would have given this hotel 1 star except for the incredible convenience of the shuttle and parking. The hotel room was so dimly lit that if you wanted to read/ work you would have to use your phone for light. A chair was conveniently placed to read in but not a lamp or light near by. The pillows were nothing and felt like I would have been better off not using them. This was not typical of the many Hiltons I have stayed in. We had dinner in the lounge and the service at the bar was horrible. We had to ask for everything from napkins to silverware to small plates. Our appetizer arrived quickly but we had no set up. This was a Friday night so I assumed it would be a well run place. Dinner was just so/ so. I expected more from the amazing reviews this place received.
Thanks for your review, please reach out to me directly so i can get better details on your dining experience.


You may have heard that the great and powerful LilaLoa is having a photo challenge on her blog. With great faith in my photography I decided to play along. That faith quickly faded. After making several Easter cookies, I decided those would be the ones I would photograph for the challenge.
And a challenge it was...first I wondered around the house and tried to find something to place my cookies in. I finally decided upon a drawer out of an antique chest. Then I worked, for what seemed like forever, to arrange them in the drawer. Let's just say a few cookies were injured in the making of this film. Cookies frosted in butter cream do not stack well, so I ended up with rows of cookies.
Clearly, this photo needs some help.
I really like the way the colors pop, but I see shadows and I can't get rid of them. So I now decide to pretend I wanted the shadows and worked very hard to get them!
I admire those who have such lovely photography on their blog, with the fancy focus and beautiful settings. (I'm pretty sure they use camera's with straps and probably tri-pods too). I'm just not ready for the giant leap in photography, so I'll stick to my little Cannon that I still can't figure out.
Photography is so tricky - I think I struggle more with it than any other aspect of blogging!
Thanks for letting me know I'm not the only one!
Your photos are always beautiful . . . it is hard to improve on what is already terrific!
All of your Easter cookies are wonderful and I have always enjoyed your photography on this blog. Good luck with LilaLoa's contest.
Thanks Paula for the words of encouragement!
Photography and coding is the hardest part of blogging for me. I "Just Keep swimming,Just keep swimming!" and hope I get it right! LOL Your photos always look great Kim. And your cookies are incredible!
I too struggle every day to take nice photos. I often feel when I get a great shot that it is just pure luck. In the gloomy days of winter it is especially hard to get nice bright shots. Some day I'll invest in a DSLR camera, but right now, I use a point and shoot.
No matter the quality of your pictures, the quality of your work is impeccable. Your food and party ideas are wonderful and I enjoy seeing each and every picture you take!
Once in a great while, I do get a good photo and I'm thrilled, usually it's because of good natural light - not because of anything I've done! Your words of encouragement always brighten my day - thanks!
I agree with Beth; your work is impeccable! I am in love with that top photo!
Thanks Sue - at first I didn't love the photo, but NOW I do!
I think your photography is great, but, no photo could ever do justice to your fabulous cookies! The BEST ever!!!
I think your photos are excellent! Great composition! Your decorating is flawless. I am new to your blog and I have spent hours and hours on it already. I love your work, your talent, your humor and your creativity. Thank you for hosting such a wonderful blog!
You don't know how happy your comment has made me - Thank you so much!
Oh yes I love how you added the depth to that second photo. It takes work to get the lights at just the right angle :) Yup I need a tripod as well, it's on my to buy list. Thanks for sharing this fun post.
On rare occasions, I have perfect light and get great photos - most of the time I don't! Thank you so much for stopping by!

The Jesuits West Province announced the 111 names, dating back to the 1950s, in a list Friday morning. That province assigns priests to missions at Brophy and to Jesuit churches and schools in different parts of the U.S. and around the world. More than 3,500 priests have moved through the Jesuit order since the 1950s, according to the release.
"The list contains the names of Jesuits who are or were members of Jesuits West Province, the former California and the former Oregon Provinces, against whom a credible claim of sexual abuse of a minor (under the age of 18) or a vulnerable adult has been made," the release states.
While most of those accused are dead, many of the claims emerged in the 1990s and early 2000s.
The former Brophy priests are:
Carlton E. Whitten, accused of sexual abuse of a minor in 2008. He was at Brophy from 1972 to 1977. He was removed from active ministry but still considered a Jesuit.
Edward T. Burke, accused of sexual abuse of vulnerable adults from 1990 to 2000. He was assigned to Brophy twice: from 1958 to 1966 and from 1970 to 1977. He died while still in the Jesuit order in 2009.
Colosimo, who worked at Brophy from 1955 to 1960.
Charles L. Connor, accused of sexual abuse of vulnerable adults from 1990 to 2000, was at Brophy from 1977 to 1979. He died while still in the Jesuit order in 2011.
James T. Monaghan, accused of sexual abuse of a minor from 1988 to 1989, worked at Brophy from 1955 to 1962. He died while still in the Jesuit order in 2004.
Thomas E. O'Rourke, accused of sexual abuse of a minor in 1969. He served at Brophy from 1975 to 1993 and died while still in the Jesuit order that year.
John R. Shepherd, accused of sexual abuse of a minor in 1978 and in the 1980s, served at Brophy from 1955 to 1956. He died while still in the Jesuit order in 1991.
Phillip Sunseri, accused of sexual abuse of a minor in 1986, was at Brophy from 1978 to 1982. He is listed as dismissed from the Jesuit order in May 1988.
The list includes the names of the accused priests and their assignments. It does not specify where the abuse occurred and clarifies that, even though a priest has been accused, he may not have been found guilty of a crime in court.
In a list of questions and answers released with the names, the Jesuit order writes that the men are not immediately removed from the Jesuit order after a credible claim. Dismissal is decided on a case-by-case basis; some priests are kept in the order but assigned to a "supervised" Jesuit community.

Restaurants Close 'Temporarily,' Say They Can't Find Enough Workers
Nine out of 10 restaurants say they are understaffed. Owners hope service will rebound in September, when pandemic unemployment payments end

The staffing shortage in the hospitality industry has been taking its toll, with local restaurants cutting hours, even keeping doors closed for days on end, a week, or a month.
A lack of staff forced Michael Hennes, owner of Cajun and Creole restaurant Howe's Bayou in Ferndale to close for the rest of the month. "Well not fun for me to say this, but we have to close the restaurant for a while until we can get enough staff to do the job right," Hennes, posted on Facebook recently. "I hope this is a short break and we will see you all soon."
He's not the first restaurateur to close its doors over staffing shortages. The east side Caribbean restaurant Norma G's blamed staff shortages for a recent closing, And Jim Sage, owner of Sajo's in Clinton Township, posted on its social media sites that the Mediterranean and American restaurant will be closed through August, at least.
"It hurts more than you think," Sage told Fox 2 Detroit. "It's very hard to replace these [ex-staffers], it's very difficult. He says he plans to reopen in September when pandemic unemployment payments cease, a financial incentive many restaurant workers say is contributing to the industry's staff gaps.
A post shared by normagscuisine (@normagscuisine)
Central City Tap House in Kalamazoo said in June it was closing its doors "until we can find a full enough roster in our kitchen to re-open to our customers," and urged people to apply for jobs at the company. In Ferndale, Ethiopian restaurant the Blue Nile, closed to dine-in service during the pandemic, with the owners apologizing to customers that service wasn't up to par but that carry-out service would be available. In July, it offered a $1,200 signing bonus to employees. The restaurant is currently closed until September while the owners travel to Ethiopia to restock ingredients.
One restaurant last week said that staffing issues forced it to close permanently. Detroit Eatz, 32704 Grand River, posted on its Facebook page it was shutting down for good.
"Due to staffing issues, we are permanently closed," the post made on Thursday, August 12 reads. A sign on the door of the restaurant confirmed closed permanently.
The fast-food restaurant, or "dreli," opened less than two years ago at the site of a former Burger King on Grand River between Orchard Lake and Farmington roads. In addition to burgers and fries, the dreli, or drive-thru deli served delicatessen items.
A new survey from the Michigan Restaurant and Lodging Association shows that 9 in 10 restaurant operators polled said they don't have enough workers to meet consumer demand. More than 85 percent of full-service restaurants reported closing early or for specific times during the day because of inadequate staffing.
The MRLA conducted the survey Aug. 3-6 to determine the challenges the industry was facing a month and a half after COVID restrictions were lifted. The survey included 320 responses from Michigan restaurant and hotel operators, representing approximately 1,000 locations statewide.
Omar Mitchell, who recently opened the fine-dining restaurant Imaginate in Royal Oak, says looking for staff "was definitely a little scary" before launch. He and the restaurant's general manager, Mark Smith, were becoming a little discouraged after posting calls for workers on social media accounts and on Indeed, and receiving little response. He says the men decided to "go old school," calling associates, friends, and former colleagues on the phone, and inviting them in for a look. "It's been working for us," he says.
Sandy Levine, a partner in the midtown Detroit restaurant Chartreuse Kitchen & Cocktails, told WDET radio in June 2021 that the last year and a half has been challenging but that restaurants need to stop dehumanizing their workers.
"There were staffing shortages, even before COVID," he told the Detroit station. "But a lot of restaurant industry workers, I think, had been looking for an excuse to leave the industry. And, COVID, you know, provided that and, much more of an excuse to just leave for good."
All over town, and across the nation, help-wanted signs at restaurants are plentiful. And so are signing and retention bonuses.
"People are leaving the industry because it's not a great industry to work in as a whole," Levine says.

Digital Investments into agriculture in Africa achieving only 6% penetration: Experts
Source: Ghana | Luv News | Prince Appiah | princekappiah@gmail.com
The African Green Revolution Forum has identified regional coordination and cooperation as essential to unlocking the full potential of new digital tools to boost food security and productivity.
Officials observe new digital services designed to boost African agriculture could reach 250 million farmers by 2030 but only with coordinated efforts across the continent.
According to a recent report by the Technical Centre for Agricultural and Rural Cooperation (CTA) and Dalberg Advisors, investment into digital innovations has so far been piecemeal across sub-Saharan Africa, achieving only six percent penetration
But new tools aimed at smallholder farmers, such as mobile advisory services or online market platforms, could transform food production across Africa with the support and guidance of a dedicated alliance for digitalization, the authors of the report said.
Presenting the findings of the Digitalization of African Agriculture Report 2018-2019 at the African Green Revolution Forum (AGRF), Director of CTA, Michael Hailu, said, an alliance for digitization will help revolutionize agriculture.
"The potential for digital technologies and innovations to transform agriculture in Africa is enormous but there is currently no mechanism to promote partnership and channel investments to scale up digitalization to reach millions of smallholder farmers."
"An alliance for digitalization bringing together governments, donors, investors, international bodies, farmer organizations and the agribusinesses should be created to advance inclusive, sustainable digitalization for agriculture across Africa."
Mr Hailu delivered the report to the AGRF, which also recognized the growing importance of digitalization in agriculture under the theme, "Grow Digital: Leveraging digital transformation to drive sustainable food systems in Africa."
The report highlighted key gaps in the recent growth of digitalization, including uptake among women, who account for more than 40 percent of the agricultural labour force yet makeup around only 25 percent of the registered users of digital services.
Increasing the reach of digitalization among women, together with solutions for issues such as privacy and access, could be among the topics that an alliance could champion.
"The digitalization for African agriculture market can learn a lot from the experiences of other technology sectors, including the value of tackling sector-wide, pre-competitive issues from the outset," said Michael Tsan, partner at Dalberg Advisors and co-leader of the firm's global Digital and Data Practice.
"By sharing knowledge and developing partnerships, we can establish best practices that quickly allows the scaling up of effective digital innovations so that all of sub-Saharan Africa can benefit."
During the AGRF, CTA also hosts the finals of its Pitch AgriHack competition, inviting entrepreneurs and innovators to present their start-up ideas that could help drive the transformation of African agriculture. Seven prizes will be awarded, each including 15,000 EUROS as well as business growth support.
CTA is a joint international institution of the African, Caribbean and Pacific (ACP) Group of States and the European Union (EU) and operates under the framework of the Cotonou Agreement and funded by the EU.
It works to advance food security, resilience and inclusive economic growth in Africa, the Caribbean and the Pacific through innovations in sustainable agriculture.

The West And The World
HIS 100-810 — The West and the World to 1500 – Paper Prep Assignment – October 5th, 2015
What problems did Western Europe face after the death of Charlemagne
(d. 814) and how were they resolved?
Charlemagne(Charles the great) king of Frank was a great "warrior king", he controlled the former European core of Western Roman empire, northern Italy and all Gaul and had absorbed its German and North sea periphery. Later in 814 charles died and the crown was passed to his sole heir, Louis the Pious. After Charles death Western Europe began its downfall from a once great united europe to a dozens of little states fighting each other. and this paper will show how an empire of such magnitude and influence could fracture into petty warring states and be powerless against seemingly weak exterior threats. It will also talk about the conflict between Louise 's son's. Throught the down fall this paper will talk about the attacks the kingdom faced during the decline from the vikings.
When charles was king he had a goal of uniting latin europe and have it all controlled by a single government. Charles traveled and campaigned Across europe for forty year Campaigning and increasing his realm of influence. In the 800 Charles had been crowned august the emperor of the romans by pope leo II, this was the peak of charles rule. some historians say he was also the first holy roman emperor laying the foundations for both the roman empire and the kingdom of france which
The World Of West Africa
Between the years 1500 and 1900, Europeans forced hundreds of millions of people from West and Central Africa to become slaves in the Americas. Once in the Americas, they were put on plantations and worked in brutal, degrading conditions. Millions of Africans were killed in the process. They were stripped of their identity and were no longer considered human, just a slave to the forces of white men. The people of west africa had a rich culture and history, as well as a variety of political systems

It is from this point in the history of the world that the existence of truly wild horses begins to decline; their place taken by domestic stock. Horses are located all over the world, depending on their location and the traits they poses; they have all since been given specific breeds. The closest living relative to the horses of today is the Asiatic Wild
The West German Government And World War II
The perspective the West German government and society took when evaluating how to deal with the atrocities of World War II was one of understanding and acceptance. The West German people believed that learning from past mistakes and blunders of German government prevails over negligence and silence to the actions that took place. However, there was a major obstacle in the way of maintaining the peoples ability to start anew and accept the past. This obstacle was the ten thousand prisoners of war
Beowulf Within West Saxon Dialect In The World
Within West Saxon Dialect in the world, one of the most important manuscripts that the world has ever seen is Beowulf.

The Mississippi River, the third longest river in North America and one of the world's major rivers in terms of habitat diversity, flows over 2,000 miles and passes through 10 different states in the United States. Even with its massive size, there has been an ongoing problem and scares that the Mississippi might be taken over by a river called the Atchafalaya. By being taken over, it is meant that the Mississippi wants to take a different, easier course to get to the Gulf of Mexico than it has in

World War II Was The Deadliest Conflict Of Japanese Americans On The West Coast Of The United States
World War II was the deadliest conflict in human history, lasting from 1939-1945. One of the initiators, Japan, was behaving aggressively and pushed the United States away from the country's attempt to stay neutral regarding global issues. Japan's belligerent conquests were the ignition to the fuel of hostility against the Japanese-Americans that has been increasing for many years. Americans sought a solution to fix the Japanese issue after its brutal attack against the United States, but failed

WASHINGTON (CNS) — Some have taken their indignation all the way to the border between the United States and Mexico, while others have taken action closer to home, protesting while accompanied by their children and fellow parishioners in cities and towns across the U.S.
Others are volunteering their services to counsel or visit immigrant children separated from a parent or are publicly advocating against the practice.
From coast to coast, Catholics, including cardinals, bishops, women and men religious, priests and laity, and many sisters from an array of religious orders and the organizations they staff or support, have been among some of the most public and vociferous voices around the country in defense of immigrants. That defense has gone into overdrive in efforts to reunite migrant families and to call for their humane treatment.
On June 26, she tweeted that she was heading toward a detention camp for children to deliver toys and books but had "no luck" in being allowed to do so.
Father Tom Smith, a Conventual Franciscan who runs a retreat center that has housed 500 migrants since November 2016 in New Mexico, had the same experience and was denied entry to a child detention center in Texas on Father's Day.
"This is a moral and inhumane situation," Fr. Smith said in a statement posted on a Franciscan blog June 25. "Scripture calls us to welcome the foreigner, to treat them as we would treat our own. Jesus in Matthew 25 states clearly the way we treat others is the way we will be judged. Is the present immigration approach how we would want to be treated?
Though the Trump administration said it would temporarily stop separating children from their parents at the border, Catholics advocating for the migrants worry about the administration's imminent plans to detain the children and their family members at camps on military bases in Texas.
On June 28, the U.S. Department of Defense released a statement saying it had received a request "to house and care for an alien family population of up to 12,000 people" for the Department of Homeland Security, which deals with immigration detention, because it oversees U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The request, it said, was for "soft-sided camp facilities capable of sheltering up to 4,000 people at three separate locations" in Texas, Arizona, New Mexico or California.
Some of the children who already have been separated have ended up in places such as New York, with foster parents or in shelters, where organizations such as Catholic Charities are providing legal support to try to reunite them with family, or to provide emotional comfort while awaiting to be reconnected with family.
Msgr. Kevin Sullivan, executive director for Catholic Charities New York, who was present with Cardinal Dolan at the news conference, said the organization was trying to help families deal with the tragedy of the separation and trying to reassure the children experiencing difficulties as a result of the events, while also making sure they receive medical attention they might need.
"They had a plan when they came to the United States: to be with their parents. They've been taken away from their parents," he said.
Fr. Smith said even though the administration plans to detain the families as a unit, that will not solve the problems of treating them inhumanely.
In Pennsylvania, Chris Zurawski, a secular Franciscan, said she was heartened to hear her pastor's Sunday homily address the immigration issue as a pro-life issue. The priest started the Sunday homily June 24 with St. John the Baptist and spoke of standing up for what people believed in.
"He asked questions and he said he wanted to see hands, how many are Christians? How many are Catholics? How many pro-life people contacted (their local) representatives?" about immigration and other issues that the Catholic Church backs, she recalled.
The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops has repeatedly asked Catholics to contact their representatives to back issues that the Church supports, and that includes a stance against abortion as a pro-life issue, but also immigration as a pro-life issue.
Though many Catholics, like Zurawski, are voicing support of migrants, some are going against the Church's official stance on welcoming them. Some in her parish, she said, didn't like their pastor's approach in tying immigration to the pro-life issue and walked out during the homily asking them to get involved.
And that means accepting everyone into the Church, she said.

The Craziest Tech Products That Exists In Japan
What remains unknown is how the western customers would react if these products suddenly appear in their market. Could it be a huge success or it would fail miserably? That is the real question.
Photo : Youtube/World News Channel
Of every single country in the world, Japan is one of the most important in the tech industry, giving the fact that it always has been characterized for developing incredible innovations that have marked a turning point. However, one of the most curious peculiarities in this field is that Japan also has release extremely awkward tech products in its market, that could be seen as crazy invention anywhere else but there. In the case that you don´t know any of these devices, here are the strangest.
An Air-Conditioner Helmet For Construction Workers
Although this may see as a lie, or something that could be just a dumb and exaggerated joke about how bizarre some Japanese tech products are, this is actually so real that not even in science-fiction parody movie you would find it. I´m talking literally about a helmet equipped with an air conditioner to get your head cold. As if it were some kind fan cooler for a device that could overheat.
The Kuchofuku A/C helmet was designed for construction workers who have always complained about the horrible conditions of working through hot summer days wearing a hard hat. So, in order to make them feel more comfortable and increase their performance, it was decided to make this bizarre product, which comes with a fan sewn into a fabric neck covering that offers cool air to the neck and the back of the head, which could decrease its temperature by up 44.4 degrees Fahrenheit.
The most incredible fact about this product is that it weighs 6.9 ounces including its battery box, which means that it weighs lighter than bike helmets. Naturally, this hard hat also comes with the respective protection from falling objects, and if you want to any other thing that it actually has air conditioner included, the Kuchofuku company has made pants and shirt with this device.
One Of The Craziest Tech Products: A Wearable Robot That Provides Tomatoes
I know this would be weird, but if you are someone who has always dreamed about a tech device that you can put on your shoulders, in order to receive a bunch of tomatoes from it, in Japan, there is actually a product that would make this awkward dream come true. I´m not kidding, this thing is called Tomatan, and it consists of exactly what I just described.
Although this might seem as something crazy as hell, is actually have a reasonable explanation: the inventor of this device noticed that people who run often looked for bananas to recover their energies, instead of the tomatoes, which the Japanese ketchup company explained its health benefits for people who practice this kind of sport.
When the brainchild of this robot realized that one of the main reasons for runners to not carry tomatoes with them -in addition, that banana tastes a lot better- was that these are very difficult to transport in these conditions, considering that it doesn't have a protective skin. In any case, the Tomato was one of the tech products that wasn't allowed to be included in any competition and practically disappeared after that.
Noiseless Karaoke Mute Mic 2
Singing if you´re not a singer is always very uncomfortable, considering that knowing that someone is hearing our voice could be so disturbing for many people, who feels this situation as many others feel to be seeing naked. Believe it or not, in Japan there´s a product for this kind of folks, which even if it is extremely rare, is actually incredibly useful.
This product is called Noiseless Karaoke Mut Mic 2, and it consists of a microphone in which you can sing as loud as you want, and no one will listen. Also it has a USB port, and the option of putting an auricular to hear when you are singing. Although this might seem as that kind of tech products whose public could be so minimum that it wouldn't last even a month in the market, it is actually a very successful device that has solved the "singing" issue for many people.

Several preprocessor directives are available that modify how the ecpg preprocessor parses and processes a file.
The embedded SQL preprocessor will look for a file named filename.h, preprocess it, and include it in the resulting C output. Thus, embedded SQL statements in the included file are handled correctly.
But when EXEC SQL INCLUDE "filename" is used, only the current directory is searched.
In each directory, the preprocessor will first look for the file name as given, and if not found will append .h to the file name and try again (unless the specified file name already has that suffix).
because this file would not be subject to SQL command preprocessing. Naturally, you can continue to use the C #include directive to include other header files.
The include file name is case-sensitive, even though the rest of the EXEC SQL INCLUDE command follows the normal SQL case-sensitivity rules.
then ecpg will already do the substitution and your C compiler will never see any name or identifier MYNUMBER. Note that you cannot use #define for a constant that you are going to use in an embedded SQL query because in this case the embedded SQL precompiler is not able to see this declaration.
Checks a name and processes subsequent lines if name has been created with EXEC SQL define name.
Checks a name and processes subsequent lines if name has not been created with EXEC SQL define name.

VOLUNTEERS taking part in tests of the Pentagon's "less-lethal" microwave weapon were banned from wearing glasses or contact lenses due to safety fears. The precautions raise concerns about how safe the Active Denial System (ADS) weapon would be if used in real crowd-control situations.
The ADS fires a 95-gigahertz microwave beam, which is supposed to heat skin and to cause pain but no physical damage (New Scientist, 27 October 2001, p 26). Little information about its effects has been released, but details of tests in 2003 and 2004 were revealed after Edward Hammond, director of the US Sunshine Project - an organisation campaigning against the use of biological and non-lethal weapons - requested them under the Freedom of Information Act.
The tests were carried out at Kirtland Air Force Base in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Two experiments tested pain tolerance levels, while in a third, a "limited military utility assessment", volunteers played the part of rioters or intruders and the ADS was used to drive them away.
The experimenters banned glasses and contact lenses to prevent possible eye damage to the subjects, and in the second and third tests removed any metallic objects such as coins and keys to stop hot spots being created on the skin. They also checked the volunteers' clothes for certain seams, buttons and zips which might also cause hot spots.
The ADS weapon's beam causes pain within 2 to 3 seconds and it becomes intolerable after less than 5 seconds. People's reflex responses to the pain is expected to force them to move out of the beam before their skin can be burnt.
But Neil Davison, co-ordinator of the non-lethal weapons research project at the University of Bradford in the UK, says controlling the amount of radiation received may not be that simple. "How do you ensure that the dose doesn't cross the threshold for permanent damage?" he asks. "What happens if someone in a crowd is unable, for whatever reason, to move away from the beam? Does the weapon cut out to prevent overexposure?"
During the experiments, people playing rioters put up their hands when hit and were given a 15-second cooling-down period before being targeted again. One person suffered a burn in a previous test when the beam was accidentally used on the wrong power setting.
"What happens if someone is unable to move away from the beam?"A vehicle-mounted version of ADS called Sheriff could be in service in Iraq in 2006 according to the Department of Defense, and it is also being evaluated by the US Department of Energy for use in defending nuclear facilities. The US marines and police are both working on portable versions, and the US air force is building a system for controlling riots from the air.
Are people more at risk from the Bush / Blair / Martin / Howard / Sharon governments, or from alleged Islamic "terrorist groups"?
An objective risk assessment would surely demonstrate that our proto-fascist "western" governments are the greatest threats to our freedom, wealth, rights, life and well-being.
How to protect ourselves from those who are terrorizing us? Create viable independent media alternatives. Creative viable political alternatives (better political parties) and / or take over and transform existing political parties, if this is possible. Priorize your time and resources. Form strategic alliances. Earn the resources to achieve the above by studying either real estate investment or forex trading, practise and perfect some skills, and seize wealth to be used for the common good.
Microwaves are not healthy. Proto-fascist governments are our real threats. Remove Bush / Blair / Martin / Howard / Sharon and all of their ilk from positions of responsibility. These are the most dangerous terrorists in the world.

Neighbours to boost economic ties
Hungary, Austria and Slovakia agreed on January 25 to boost economic cooperation, the three countries' leaders said after a trilateral summit in the western Hungarian city of Sopron.
"We agreed to hold an economic symposium in Györ (north Hungary), probably in September," Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán told a news conference held jointly with Austrian Chancellor Viktor Klíma and Slovak Prime Minister Mikuláš Dzurinda.

Orbán added that there was further potential for sub-regional economic cooperation between the three countries, and said that the core of the joint economic development should be the Vienna-Bratislava-Györ triangle.
Klíma warned that due to the Asian, Russian and Brazilian crises, the European Union had to face the prospect of slower-than-expected economic growth this year. "Due to the south-east Asian, Russian and Brazilian crisis, growth in the EU will fall back to around 2.1%," Klíma said. "We also had to cut back our (Austria's) growth prospects for this year from the 3.1% we expected last summer, to 2.4%."
The three leaders agreed that since the government change last September, Slovakia had made important steps towards European integration. Dzurinda expressed his hope that Slovakia would be invited this year to start concrete accession negotiations with the EU.
"We hope that the steps our government took so far...would lead to Slovakia's being invited for concrete accesion talks in 1999," he said.
Klíma, while stressing that Austria supported Slovakia's ambitions, was more cautious.
"I hope that the (EU's) Helsinki summit will result in a suitable decision (for Slovakia)," he said.
Orbán said that the new Slovak government had also made significant progress in improving the Hungarian minority's situation. "The present Slovak government took, with exemplary alacrity, decisions to solve old problems," he said.
The rights of the sizeable Hungarian minorities in Slovakia, Romania and Yugoslavia are of permanent concern for Hungary, and in the past often marred relations with its neighbours. The three leaders agreed to hold the next summit in Bratislava but gave no date for the meeting.

A swab instead of a jab. The renamed testing kicked off
The government spent the week deciding about nationwide testing. Lockdown is starting to show in infection numbers, experts say.


I am so sorry! Sending you so much love right now. This is one of those moments where I hate that we know each other via blogs, I wish I could bring you a warm coffee and sit and cry with you.
So sorry to hear you have more bad news. I do hope that you get some good news sooner rather than later.
Oh, Court, I am so so so sorry. I hope that the weight packs it in soon. I hope that maybe an actual management plan will help with that. I'll be thinking of you and all the family.
So sorry to hear this. Ugh.
