AAA on Televisa: 2017-03-11
March 15, 2017 March 15, 2017 thecubsfan
new champion
Recapped: 03/13/2017
All matches taped 03/05/2017 in Plaza de Toros Rodolfo Rodriguez el Pana, Apizaco, Tlaxcala. Full epsiode is on AAA's channel.
Argenis [O], Big Mami, Dinastía, El Elegido beat Dave The Clown, La Hiedra, Mini Abismo Negro, Parka Negra [X] (moonsault, 7:02, ok)
Super Fly defeated Bengala (powerbomb, 5:09, good)
Faby Apache beat Ricky Marvin © to win the AAA World Trios Championship (Chessman chair show→inside cradle, 4:32, good)
What happened:
a nice Abismo/Dinastia sequence
Faby Apache (and presumably Mary Apache & El Apache) are the new AAA Trios Champions. Faby won the titles for her team all by herself, defeating Ricky Marvin in an impromptu one on one match. Announcer Jesus Zuniga, as part of many moments on the show where he spoke for Vamprio, explained the scheduled Apaches vs OGT match was off because Apache was away with "personal issues" and Mary had been hurt in an accident. (One very short clip of Mary in ambulance was shown twice; it appeared to be something filmed from a previous angle being reused.) Averno – not Vampiro – proposed Faby put up her and her families' career for a shot at 'their dream', the AAA trios championship. Faby accepted without hesitation, and won when Chessman accidentally hit Marvin with a chair. OGT seemed slightly upset with each other after the match, but not to the point of breaking up (at least yet.)
Super Fly defeated Bengala in another match announced by Announcer Jesus Zuniga as being a decision of Vampiro when Aerostar was ruled unable to compete. Super Fly earlier said he'd been looking all around for Vampiro to ask him about this match and could not find him anywhere. Everyone was certain Aerostar would still compete at Rey de Reyes, though Super Fly believed Aerostar wasn't as much hurt as scared of him.
(AAA hyped both of these matches as if they would happen as scheduled during the show, a break from times where they'd give away the changes in the lineup screen.)
Texano Jr. visited the AAA offices in his own search to find Vampiro. He did not find him, but found a closet marked as Vampiro's office. Inside was a note and a candle. The note explained Texano would have to defend his heavyweight title against Psycho Clown & Dr. Wagner. Texano was displeased to read that, and more so when the light mysteriously blew out.
More La Llave de la Gloria footage was shown, with Villano coaching and in-ring highlights shown. Some of the eventual 'winners' in this round (Papillon, Douki, Hanaoka) got interview time, though the winners haven't been announced on the show yet.
The Lucha Retro segment was on the first Relevos Mixicos de Locura match, as an innovative match part of AAA's 25 year history
Carta Brava Jr., who talks to the son of the original who accompanied his fathers to all his matches. Calls out Argenis.
The técnicos won an atomicos opener.
moonsault looked better than the landing
Vampiro! Vampiro! VAMPIRO! Not five seconds afrer the opening mentioned, the announcers screaming about an announcement Vampiro made. Super Fly's promo was tangentially about Aerostar ducking him, but pointedly about Super Fly not being able to find Vampiro. Bengala doing well in the match was about Vampiro putting him into that position. Vampiro was put over in the NotiAAA. Vampiro was specifically the one for knowing the Apaches weren't there. Texano had to find Vampiro's office and it was another Vampiro mystery, with Vampiro's non appearance the real biggest story of the show. Vampiro!!!
This was way too much Vampiro. It would be way too much anyone. They sure seemed to set up Vampiro as the biggest and most important person on the show, which might even work in the short-term but doesn't address any of their long term issues. There hasn't been any show domination like this on AAA TV since Konnan and the Roldans were at their most visible, and even then it seemed to be split among them. This was all a lot of attention one one guy, including in some parts (like announcing the people who were missing the show) were it didn't seem to be needed.
Vampiro not actually being on-screen, but being refereed to as some all-powerful Oz, doesn't make it better. And Vampiro as a mysterious shadowy guy doesn't work when we're seeing him as just a normal wrestling dude in the La Llave de la Gloria segments. I'm guessing they purposefully lead the show off with that segment to get it as far away from the spooky message at the end, but those two concepts can't really work on the same show together.
Maybe this was one just one weird taping and it'll get better on a more normal show (or after they actually watch this show.) There are more changes on there than Vampiro. Both the Super Fly/Aerostar and Apaches/OGT feud got video packages to make it clear how things got to this point, and Super Fly got an actual in ring promo before a match. I'm sure this isn't right, but it feels like Super Fy hasn't done a promo since season 1 of Lucha Underground (and he seems much more confident in his role here than there.) The Apaches/OGT video package even made a note of Secta's win last week, so it doesn't just feel like a random outcome that was never mentioned again.
The Hijo del Tirantes deal deserves it's own space. It's clear this week that not only has he been told not to do rudo referee spots, everyone's been told to treat him like he'd never done one. The announcers stay away from the obvious Faby/Tirantes issues and even Faby's in the same spot. There was a moment in the Marvin/Apache match where the crowd that Faby got a three count. It was two, a fair two, the crowd was just a bit anxious to see her win, but any count where the fans disagree with Tirantes is usually a moment for Faby to get in Tirantes face for a reaction. She just moved right along this week. I'm really fine with no more rudo referee spots, it's what I've wanted all along, but I still feel cheated there's this years long story about Tirantes cheating Faby and the payoff is everyone agrees to never talk about it again. I'm cautious at asking for even more Vampiro, but there needs to be some in front of the camera bit where Tirantes is told to knock it off to mirror whatever's clearly happened behind the scenes. Right now, we're mostly expected to forget something that's been a focus of the promotion for years.
Bengala sliding headscissors
The Super Fly/Bengala was the most effective match of the show, with Bengala looking good in a rare singles chance for him and Super Fly getting the clean win he needed. It lacked a bit in drama; Super Fly won on the first big move he tried, and Bengala never felt that close to winning. (A problem here is even I can't remember what Bengala's using as a finisher, it doesn't come up much.) Super Fly seems much more comfortable as a rudo now than he even did a few years ago, and there's reason to have hope for the mask match.
Faby/Marvin had drama, but the stakes didn't mean anything. I don't believe the fans really thought for a second Faby was at risk of losing her career, because she didn't spend a second thinking about it herself. OGT freaked out about losing their trios titles for minutes, selling the idea it meant a lot to them. The crowd got into the idea of Faby defeating a man in a singles match, but the idea of winning titles for her not present family members didn't mean anything. Remember, this match was never supposed to be a title match – it was a lumberjack match of all things – so everything about the stipulations for this match was strange in the recap and just as strange on TV. The one difference on TV is it came across like they were opening the door for the OGTs to be done soon. That'd be quick, it'd make sense to take the titles of them while they could, but I'm not sure. The match itself was alright and helped by the energy, with the short time making it feel like a midstoryline Lucha Underground match than anything AAA usually provides.
Super Fly/Bengala also felt different from what normally airs on TV, which was a nice change from the opening atomicos. That followed the same formula as usual, including the super rushed heel beatdown segment in the middle of the match. Everyone seemed motivated to work really hard, but that didn't mean it looked all that good. Elegido was the leader in doing a lot without doing much well, but Argenis ending moonsault looked particularly poor. Big Mami seemed to get a lot more attention than Dinastia, a worrying development. Mami even got to do her comedy back bridge spot while didn't get to do his cool one.
Lucha Underground on Netflix, Cometa keeps his title over the caveman
March 15, 2017 March 15, 2017 thecubsfan 1 Comment
Cometa & Cavernario
CMLL (TUE) 03/14/2017 Arena México
1) Eléctrico & Fantasy b Pequeño Nitro & Pequeño Olímpico
2) Drone, Metatrón, Starman b Arkángel de la Muerte, Canelo Casas, Nitro
Drone replaced Magnus. tecnicos took 1/3.
3) Misterioso Jr., Sagrado, Virus b Esfinge, Fuego, Tritón
Rudos took 2/3.
4) Olímpico, Sam Adonis, Vangellys b Ángel de Oro, Guerrero Maya Jr., Johnny Idol
5) Rey Cometa © b Cavernario [MEX WELTER]
Cometa took falls 2/3 to win in a very good match. First defense after Cometa won the title from Cavernario last June.
6) Marco Corleone, Máximo Sexy, Volador Jr. b Mr. Niebla, Rey Bucanero, Terrible
Cometa & Cavernario is worth going out of your way to watch, as usual. It wasn't as nuts as some of their matches but still pretty entertaining. Cometa winning is a nice surprise. In a better world, Cometa is defending this title against the Sagrado/Tiger/Pumas of the world, and Cavernario has a bigger title. In this world, I'm just happy to have this match.
Lucha Underground is on Netflix, if you are in the US, Canada or Latin American markets. (If you're in places like the UK, Australia or Brazil, you're still out of luck unless you want to run a VPN. Also, my secret shame is I've never subscribed to Netflix.) It's the first two seasons in HD, exactly as hyped on the day Lucha Underground said it'd be released. This is a good day for Lucha Underground. TV Insider has an interview with Johnny Mundo about what the show could mean for the series.
One surprise is there's Spanish language commentary for both seasons. This bit leaked out yesterday afternoon – this article previewing the series mentioned there was second season Spanish commentary. I almost wrote something correcting it because, as well all know, Lucha Underground stopped recording sections in Spanish after they stopped airing on Unimas. Apparently, we (I) don't know anything, because Season 2 does indeed have a second language track. It's a mishmash: there's voice actors dubbing over the parts of the wrestlers and for the on camera desk shots of Striker & Vampiro, and then Jose Manuel Guillen and Bernado Guzman of +Lucha taking over the actual play by play of the matches. I kind of want to see it to see how they'd call the bigger matches.
(aside 1: It was always a bit short sided not to continue recording segments in Spanish – this show probably needs to air in the native language of lucha libre if it's going to succeed – but LU's bank accounts are not infinite and it might have been a tradeoff to use that money on other things. Still, it seems like something that should come back in season 4.)
(aside 2: people think I do a lot of stuff. No, the +LuchaTV crew really does a lot of stuff. Jose is doing commentary for the English version of CMLL that's airing in Canada and the Spanish version of AAA's Lucha Underground, that's a real rarity and would be busy enough for most people. That crew is also producing multiple video shows a week for their YouTube channel, doing a podcast, going to multiple shows and editing highlights packages, producing paid content, and probably ten other things I don't even know about. It's not just two guys, or two guys and one Monje, it's a crew of people working on the project now who deserve to share in some of the credit, but the project is responsible for a tremendous amount of important lucha libre content. I don't know how long it can last this way, someone big is going to notice what they're doing and give them and offer just to work on their stuff someday, but +LuchaTV feels like the most irrepalacable part of the lucha libre landscape at the moment for how many different parts of it they affect.)
The Mistico & Stuka vs Sam Adonis and Ultimo Guerrero match in Orlando on 04/01 is off. This doesn't affect the CMLL people appearing for Ring of Honor (and doesn't have anything to do with ROH also using CMLL people.)
At the BARACAL show honoring the original Pierroth, he stated he approved of the new Pierroth using the name. This is the usual bit of a older luchador licensing his name out to someone else, which probably helps the original Pierroth given his medical issues.
Llaves y Candados announced in a video that their ColiseoMania 5 (04/09) top matches will be a main event of Garza, Rey Mysterio and Penta el Zero M against Nicho, Damian and Bestia, and a semimain of Zorro & Daga against Sammy Guevara and a international surprise. Rey Fenix was said to not be on the card this time due to other commitments.
Vampiro was interviewed by his local Thunder Bay paper about his new role with Lucha Libre FMV. He explains he was the perfect person for the position, and will still be spending time in his hometown doing community work and with his martial arts school.
Lector 24 interviews Black Terry, who calls himself a teacher and not a maestro – he helps people get better, he's not perfect.
The latest +LuchaTV podcast has Texano, Demus and Iron Kid as guest. They've also posted Saturno vs Skyman from Cara Lucha, which is said to be really great.
Impact Wrestling has an article on Garza Jr. & Laredo Kid. Mostly Garza Jr., they can't figure out anything about Laredo Kid because he's a masked man. Their debut match airs tomorrow on Impact.
LuchaWorld has the latest Lucha Report.
Segunda Caida reviews Hijo del Santo vs Negro Casas from 1997.
The FULL show this weekend in Cuernavaca drew 2,500.
Super Fly says Monterrey will see Aerostar's face.
CMLL's written a history of Homenaje a Dos Leyendas main events or at least the ones they feel like bringing up. FWIW,

IWRG (SUN) 03/19/2017 Arena Naucalpan
1) Shadow Boy vs Araña de Plata
2) Kanon vs Skanda
3) Leo, Mike, Rafy, Teelo vs Eterno, Hip Hop Man, Keshin Black, Vórtize [lumberjack]
4) Black Dragón vs Demonio Infernal
5) Heddi Karaoui, Relámpago, X-Fly vs Demasiado, Diva Salvaje, Nigma
6) Pirata Morgan Jr. vs Killer Jr., Máscara Año 2000 Jr., Danny Casas, Hijo del Alebrije, Bobby Lee Jr., Silver King Jr., Argos, Diablo Jr., Hijo de Pirata Morgan [Rebelion de los Juniors]
winner gets a shot at the IWRG Junior de Juniors title, held by Herodes Jr.
Silver King Jr., Argos and Bobby Lee Jr. make appearances here to round out the all Junior elimination match. Fourth match is a rematch of a mask match.
1) Bengala & Leono vs Cholo & Inquisidor
2) Magia Blanca, Sangre Imperial, Starman vs Nitro, Sangre Azteca, Skándalo
3) Blue Panther, Drone, Tritón vs El Cuatrero, Forastero, Sansón
4) Guerrero Maya Jr. vs Virus [lightning]
5) Luciferno, Mephisto, Pólvora vs Negro Casas, Puma, Tiger
6) Carístico, Dragón Lee, Marco Corleone vs Euforia, Gran Guerrero, Último Guerrero
Once you get past the really not good first two matches, this is a pretty strong card. Maya/Virus is the eye catching match, but the maine vent has a good mix and the tercera has the Dinamitas against Blue Sr. and a couple of good stand-ins for his sons. The semimain rudo vs rudo match up only makes sense if they're setting up the Casas family finally getting their – NAH.
CMLL (TUE) 03/21/2017 Arena Coliseo Guadalajara
***Homenaje a Dos Leyendas: Salvador Lutteroth & Ringo Mendoza***
1) Capitán Cobra & Fantástico vs Linterna & Mr. Apolo
2) Marcela, Silueta, Skadi vs Amapola, La Seductora, Tiffany
3) Ángel de Oro, Atlantis, Johnny Idol vs Cavernario, Felino, Mr. Niebla
4) Hechicero © vs Stuka Jr. [NWA LH]
5) Diamante Azul, Matt Taven, Volador Jr. vs La Máscara, Pierroth, Rush
Matt Taven is staying for more than just the weekend. Last week's Caristico/Mephisto feud didn't stay, with a sudden left turn into a Hechicero title match instead. That means the Hijos del Infienro might actually be giving up their titles on Friday before the Casas get that shot.
Lucha Memes (SUN) 03/26/2017 Arena Naucalpan
1) Baby Star, Dragón Negro, Magnético vs Demasiado, Pituso, Vengador Radioactivo
2) Demus 3:16, Mercurio (CMLL), Pierrothito vs Alas de Acero, Aramis, Iron Kid
3) Trauma I & Trauma II vs Totem I & Totem II
4) Puma (CMLL) & Tiger vs Corsario Negro Jr. & Drako
5) Black Terry & Negro Navarro © vs Hechicero & Virus [Arena Coliseo TAG]
2nd defense
6) Dragón Lee & Soberano Jr. vs Sádico & Sammy Guevara
7) Atlantis vs Último Vampiro
Full card for Chairo9 already. Atlantis vs Ultimo Vampiro is a unique match. Semimain could be outstanding. Title match should be fun too, because Negro Navarro appears to be a big Hechicero fan.

NextStream Growth I Announces New Chief Executive Officer and Managing Partner
Oklahoma City, OK (June 1, 2019) – NextStream Growth I, LLC ("NextStream"), an early-stage venture capital firm, announces new Chief Executive Officer and Managing Partner, Jerome Loughridge.
Loughridge, 46, joins NextStream from Patterson-UTI, where he served as President of Great Plains Oilfield Rental. Loughridge led Great Plains for seven years, joining the leadership team while the company was part of Chesapeake Oilfield Services and its successor entity, Seventy-Seven Energy. Under Loughridge, Great Plains grew from an internally-owned, single-customer service provider to a leading company in the oilfield rental space with 150+ active customers and an industry segment-leading Total Recordable Incident Rate. Prior to leading Great Plains, Loughridge was Founder and President of Black Mesa Energy Services, the oilfield investment arm of Ziff Brothers Investments - the New York-based office for the Ziff family funds. Among Black Mesa's key investments was the start-up of coiled tubing and pressure pumping provider, Legend Energy Services. Loughridge previously served as Chief Operating Officer of Great White Energy Services, a Wexford Capital-backed oilfield services firm with operating companies in the pressure control (coiled tubing and snubbing), pressure pumping, remote housing & provisioning and oilfield manufacturing spaces in the United States, Canada and China. Loughridge received his bachelor's degree summa cum laude from Baylor University and his masters as a Truman Scholar from Harvard University. He previously served in the White House as a White House Fellow and Special Assistant to Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld. Loughridge's prior professional experience includes tenures as Chief of Staff at Baylor University and as a Derivatives Trader on the international crude desk for Williams Energy.
Loughridge was recently appointed Secretary of Health & Mental Health by Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt and was confirmed by the Senate to serve the State in that voluntary capacity.
"We are delighted to have Jerome join as NextStream's CEO," said Scott Mueller, the Chairman of NextStream's Board of Directors. "His extensive experience as an investor in the energy industry will be a valuable asset to NextStream's investors and his C-level leadership positions in multiple oilfield services businesses will help to identify and evaluate compelling opportunities, as well as be a valuable resource for the management teams leading NextStream's portfolio companies as they commercialize their technologies and grow their businesses."

Munich Radio Orchestra
(Redirected from Münchner Rundfunkorchester)
The Munich Radio Orchestra (German: Münchner Rundfunkorchester) is a German symphony broadcast orchestra based in Munich. It is one of the two orchestras affiliated with the Bavarian Radio (Bayerischer Rundfunk), the other being the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra.
A precursor ensemble to the Munich Radio Orchestra was established in the 1920s. The current Munich Radio Orchestra was formalised in 1952, with Werner Schmidt-Boelke as its first chief conductor. The orchestra's focus has historically been on light music, with particular emphasis in its early years as an orchestra for operettas. The orchestra was also historically known for its Sunday concerts.
From the chief conductorship of Lamberto Gardelli (1982-1985) onwards, the orchestra expanded its repertoire into opera, specifically Italian opera. This work continued under the orchestra's next three chief conductors, all Italians, Giuseppe Patanè (1988–1989), Roberto Abbado (1992–1998), and Marcello Viotti (1998–2005). This activity extended to commercial recordings of operas and opera excerpts with the orchestra's chief conductors.[1][2][3]
The orchestra faced budget constraints and the threat of dissolution by Bavarian Radio in 2004. In protest at these threats to the existence of the orchestra, Viotti resigned as chief conductor that year.[4] After negotiations, the orchestra was preserved, with a reduction in size from 72 to 50 musicians.[5]
From 2006 to 2017, the orchestra's chief conductor was Ulf Schirmer.[6] During his tenure, Schirmer has conducted with the orchestra commercial recordings for the Bavarian Radio's own BR-Klassik label, including Karl Amadeus Hartmann's Des Simplicius Simplicissimus Jugend. The orchestra has also recorded for other labels such as CPO, RCA,[7] Acanta[8] and Sony Classical.[9] In May 2016, the orchestra announced the appointment of Ivan Repušić as its next chief conductor, effective with the 2017-2018 season.[10]

LG is set to announce their latest flagship, the successor to the Optimus G, tomorrow morning in NYC. But this evening, @evleaks being the sneaky little leaker he is, has found the press images for the new G2 set to be unveiled tomorrow.
As you can see in the image above, it pretty much confirms the volume rocker on the back, and the full HD display without any physical buttons. In fact, we've seen in other leaks that the on-screen navigation buttons are transparent, which I'm a huge fan of. The LG G2 is also said to sport a Snapdragon 800 processor, along with a 5.2-inch 1080p display. We've also heard rumors of 2GB or 3GB of RAM on board. I'm hoping for 3GB of RAM, but 2GB should be more than enough. It's also supposed to have a pretty nice camera. Along with the screen being almost edge-to-edge.
You'll notice on the full front image, which is shown above, that the phone shows 11:00AM and Wednesday, August 7th. That's the date and time that LG is set to unveil their latest beast, the G2. Of course, as always we'll be bringing you the latest on the G2 and covering it til we can't remember what other devices came out in 2013. We've seen a lot leak out for the G2 already, but I'm pretty sure LG still has more up their sleeves. The G2 is supposedly coming to all four major US carriers in September, after launching in Korea on August 8th. We'll have all the details tomorrow morning though.
The G2 is replacing the Optimus G which was announced last year. The G2 could also be what Google uses to make the Nexus 5. But I'm not a firm believer on that since the Nexus 4 was the only Nexus that was made from another flagship. But we'll have to wait a bit longer to see if that's truly the Nexus 5 or not. Meanwhile all our eyes are on LG and the G2 for tomorrow.
How do you guys like the look of the LG G2? Let us know in the comments down below.

Ed Sheeran Skips AMAs for Bluebird Café Round
Devin Dawson Shares Bluebird Debut with Sheeran, Amy Wadge, Jillian Jacqueline and David Hodges
by Lauren Tingle 10/10/2018
While the world's top musicians attended the American Music Awards on Tuesday (Oct. 9) in Los Angeles, one name was missing from the RSVP list — Ed Sheeran's.
Instead of attending the ceremony, he opted for a songwriter's round at the sacred Nashville music venue, the Bluebird Café. The night highlighted acoustic performances by "Thinking Out Loud" co-writer Amy Wadge, Devin Dawson, David Hodges and Jillian Jacqueline, a member of CMT Next Women of Country.
Celebrities always seem to blend in discreetly with locals and tourists whenever they're in Nashville. And that was the case for Sheeran because no one noticed him sitting at a table in a far corner until he stood up to perform the last song, "Thinking Out Loud" with Wadge.
For all who were there, it was a totally original Nashville night.
Just played @bluebirdcafetn with @zdevin @jillianjacqueline and @hodgesmusic and @teddysphotos joined me on this and it made my year ❤❤❤
A post shared by Amy Wadge (@wadge1975) on Oct 9, 2018 at 10:44pm PDT
Sheeran brought his world tour to Nashville on Saturday (Oct. 6). He was a front-runner at the AMAs with six nominations including a nod for the night's top honor for artist of the year. The honor went to his friend, Taylor Swift.

Cara Cheyette asked whether the Planning Commission report states the Commission's views on the subject. LaFlamme responded yes, and Gabriel added the report would be published in the newspaper, on the town website, and posted on town bulletin boards.

Pixel; Melbourne, Australia
The former CUB Brewery site is the location of Melbourne's most significant and ambitious developments. Located at a key urban site, the project has been the subject of long discussion and speculation, culminating in the multi-faceted and multi- authored scheme now underway.
Studio 505 was approached by Grocon to design the development Office (Pixel), the last building to be conceived on the site, and the first to be built. Pixel also claims the other two extremes, namely being the smallest building with the biggest expectations. The requirement was for Pixel to provide a 6 Star Greenstar Carbon Neutral home for the Development team and Sales Offices, a display suite area and green roof top viewing area, for the duration of the developments construction and sales phase.
Pixel features one of the most sophisticated water treatment and utilization systems ever to be built. The building was designed to be water balanced meaning that if Melbourne maintains the ten year average rainfall levels from 1999- 2009, Pixel will be self- sustainable for water supply. From the extensive native green roof collecting rainwater, to the creation of the perimeter planter's balcony, Pixel is not simply a container to collect ESD ideas, but instead a laboratory and historic tapestry of symbiotic systems. These include one of the most publicly visible elements, being Pixel's facade. The facade is a system of perimeter planters, fixed shading louvers, double glazed window walls and solar panel shading. Studio 505 developed a complex yet simple patterning system to engender the project with a human scale 'flow' of textures allowing the reading of the various elevations, with their differing functional and ESD requirements and materials, to espouse coherency through fluidity.
Scoring a perfect 105 Greenstar points, Pixel has also achieved 105 points under the US LEED rating system making it the highest rated building of any yet certified for LEED anywhere in the world. It is aiming to exceed the highest score yet achieved under the UK BREEAM rating system. To put it into context, there are approximately 740,000 buildings registered worldwide under those three rating schemes, and Pixel would be at the forefront of all of them.

Unsupervised Local Spatial Mixture Segmentation of Underwater Objects in Sonar Images
Avi Abu, Roee Diamant
Department of Marine Technologies
In this paper, we focus on the segmentation of sonar images to achieve underwater object detection and classification. Our goal is to achieve accurate segmentation of the object's highlight and shadow regions. We target a robust solution that can manage different seabed backgrounds. Segmentation of sonar images is a challenging task. Speckle noise and intensity inhomogeneity may cause false detections and complex seabed textures, such as sand ripples and seagrass, often leading to false segmentation. In this paper, we propose our local spatial mixture (LSM) method for image segmentation of sidescan deployed sonar systems of any type. This new method estimates pixel labels in sonar images by incorporating the possible spatial correlation between neighboring pixels for improved segmentation. LSM modifies the expectation-maximization algorithm by adding an intermediate step (I-step) between the expectation (E-step) and maximization (M-step) steps. To combat intensity inhomogeneity, we employ a new initialization algorithm, one whose thresholds are set automatically to achieve and maintain robustness in various underwater environments. Using multiple evaluation indexes that measure the geometrical features of the segmented objects, we tested LSM using synthetic and real sonar images, one of which is obtained from our own sea experiment. Our results show that LSM achieves improved segmentation performance over the state-of-the-art methods of four different approaches; LSM is also robust to different seabed textures and intensity inhomogeneity. We share the sonar images from our sea experiments.

"I'm glad that I am able to study at Thang Long – whether it be face-to-face or online" – Pham Dinh Thinh
date_range2021-12-03
When speaking of the first day at a new school, I, like many people, have distinct memories and first impressions. My first day at Thang Long was filled with surprises and delight. After over a year of studying there, I still feel excited to go to school every day.
At the start, when mum told me of Thang Long, I wasn't interested as my timetable at Chi Lang school was already tight, and I hate talking to new people. After about a month though, I decided to enroll as I felt I should experience new things, and it would be a good opportunity to improve my communication skills. But before enrolling, there was an interview process regarding my family background. My family situation is average, the main difficulty is my mum's job involves a lot of manual labour despite her suffering from an incurable illness. Honestly, even though it's hard to talk about mum's illness, I'm proud of her for always doing her best to support and care for my sister and I.
The application process for Thang Long involves an aptitude test, which I think is reasonable. At the time of admission, there is an exam to identify a student's skills/level in order to be placed in an appropriate class. This was one of the things that gave me a lasting first impression. When I first met my peers and teacher, I was timid when communicating. Over time, however, I quickly found that everybody was super friendly and easy to get along with. Everybody supports each other with studying and everything else. The teacher teaches us wholeheartedly. She's pretty funny too and always finds novel solutions to help me better understand the material.
However, I was only at school for a little while before the first Covid outbreak occurred in Vietnam – then, I could only see my peers online. Online learning is much more difficult. You're more prone to distractions, your neighbours might be noisy, or you may have wifi connection issues. I have to sit next to the wifi router, clear my room of pillows and blankets – these are issues that can easily be resolved, but annoying nonetheless when faced every day. With that being said, everyone in my class is always studious, including when online learning.
I'm glad that I am able to study at Thang Long – whether it be face-to-face or online. Even if there are obstacles, I'm happy to see my friends and teachers. Thanks to the support of my class, I was able to overcome my weaknesses in communication, and now very much enjoy talking and socialising with my peers. Everybody is easy to get close to – they're kind and patient. Everybody wants to get to know each other better and support one another. The learning material is also incredibly beneficial. Besides teaching material from the textbook, my teacher further expands our knowledge with outside material – and sometimes, even organises fun activities to improve our understanding.
My Thang Long school is like that. Everyone is easy-going. All the teachers are dedicated to teaching us – and in turn, all the students are respectful and listen attentively to the teachers. Whether it be face-to-face or online learning, I still enjoy it because I like Thang Long school. I hope I can achieve something life-changing in the future, and that disadvantaged students have the opportunity to go to school.

What does my sponsorship mean to my sponsored child?
As a sponsor, you will help transform your sponsored child's life. Our scholarship packages differ depending on the level of the student. For example university students receive assistance to pay tuition fees, whereas school students generally receive school supplies (textbooks and notebooks), a new school uniform and 10 kg of rice per month during the school year. Saigonchildren visits each child in their home to assess their level of poverty and suitability for the programme. We hold regular meetings with the children and, where possible, with their families to assess and reassess their needs. Saigonchildren gets to understand the children individually and maintain contact to ensure they continue to have what they need to attend school.
What makes saigonchildren's approach unique?
We partner with people and organizations at every level of a child's environment – with family, community, teachers and with sponsors – to guarantee the most lasting impact. We also work with children themselves to provide social services such as counselling for children at risk of dropping out and for children returning to education.
Why should I sponsor a child through saigonchildren?
Because it works! Established in 1992, the goal of the Child Development Scholarship Programme is to ensure that all children excluded from school or whose education is jeopardized by poverty can attend school untroubled by worries about the cost of education to their families. We choose students with great care and visit them in their homes. Selection criteria include the family's financial situation (in accordance with the national poverty standard), the family's ability to earn, other family circumstances and lack of or limited support from other NGOs or the government.
As a sponsor, you will witness the impact of your support through quarterly updates and you will give a better future to your sponsored child.
How is my sponsorship donation used?
Our scholarship packages differ depending on the level of the student – university students receive assistance to pay tuition fees, whereas school students generally receive school supplies (textbooks and notebooks), a new school uniform and 10 kg of rice per month during the school year. We also work with children themselves to provide social services such as counselling for children at risk of dropping out and for children returning to education.
What does it mean to be a saigonchildren sponsor?
– Thanks to your support you will take part in our daily work to support sponsored children to live a fuller, happier, healthier and safer life.
– You can personally connect with your sponsored child if you wish and even travel to visit them.
– You will witness the transformation through quarterly updates, and receive a detailed annual report with photos.
How are children chosen for sponsorship?
The students do not need to be clever to be chosen nor do they have to pass any test, they are chosen on the basis of:
– Family's financial situation (average income is classified as poor or near-poor based on the national poverty line, expenses/debts, possession of assets).
– Family's ability to earn, including if any family members have no or limited ability to work due to illness or disabilities.
– Family circumstances, including whether one or both parents' have left, passed away or are working far from the child's home.
– Lack of/limited support from other NGOs or from the government.
How does saigonchildren Child Sponsorship work?
– As a sponsor, you will support a child who lives in a saigonchildren programme areas. You will be the only sponsor for that child.
– Saigonchildren visits each child in their home to assess their level of poverty and suitability for the programme.
– After students are chosen to receive saigonchildren's scholarships, we hold regular meetings with the children and, where possible, with their families to assess and reassess their needs.
– Saigonchildren gets to understand the children individually and maintain contact to ensure that they continue to have what they need to attend school.
– Saigonchildren collect students' study reports. Although academic excellence is not a criterion for selection or to stay in the programme, we value their efforts in overcoming difficulties to get to university/college, which are reflected in the study reports.
How does my sponsored child benefit?
Their progress is monitored regularly and appropriate action taken, if necessary. Our team works tirelessly to increasing their skills, hope, happiness and confidence. We revisit the family of the children every year to reassess their circumstances and to make sure this help is given to those who need it the most. We also check with the family to see if their circumstances have changed for better or worse to see if any change is needed.

In the wake of recent events, our Friday Fives newsletter this week is sharing a few resources on how you can get involved, educated, and support the Black Lives Matter movement. This is a time for us to demand justice, stand together, and admit that we can do more. We must use this moment to take an urgent step of action to provoke accountability, change the laws, and the people who make them.
Campaign Zero #8CANTWAIT is an initiative to call on local, state, and federal lawmakers to take immediate action and adopt a data-driven policy solution to end police violence and hold police accountable. It will take deliberate action by policymakers to end police violence, but it will also take sustained pressure by the people to make elected officials enact legislation that addresses the problem. We can begin helping today by demanding action from our representatives to pass legislation that ends police violence. Sign up to get involved. There are a lot of avenues of support, so if you're looking for more ways you can help, a 17-year-old took action to put together a list of resources with educational materials, places to donate, petitions to sign, and the contact information of officials you can reach out to take action in support of the Black Lives Matter movement. — EO
Resources for kids about racism
Like most parents, we've spent the past few months figuring out ways to explain why school is happening over a screen, why we can't go to the playground right now, and why everyone is wearing masks. Even at such a young age, the idea of not wanting to get sick makes sense to kids, so while scary, it still seems sort-of logical. Now, a new conversation around recent events needs to be had, and this time the subject is much harder to articulate and understand. Racism is a learned behavior, and as parents, it's our duty to proactively educate and begin that dialogue. Luckily there are a few timely resources that can help: Big Bird will be part of an upcoming CNN town hall on standing up to racism, NPR has a few tips on talking about George Floyd, the Times lists some books, and there's this animation which helps summarize systematic racism. Change takes many forms, but perhaps one of the most profound would be to begin with our youngest citizens. — LO
Black-owned businesses to support
Minority business owners have faced a system of adversity since the founding of this country. Whether it's struggling to get a loan or purchase property or just plain racism and hate, these challenges multiply and compound the already difficult task of entrepreneurship. Learn, discover, and promote these commendable business owners! Please check out these links for black-owned fashion and beauty brands, restaurants, bookstores, and other businesses to support. I can personally attest to the amazing Senegalese spring rolls at Cafe Rue Dix in Crown Heights. –HY
Media to educate yourself
Context is everything. If you didn't know the hare took a nap in the middle of the race, you would assume the tortoise cheated. Every action and reaction has a story behind it: a lived experience, a conversation, a personal loss. The tendency is to take things out of context, looking at individual snapshots rather than the story as a whole, and that leads to uninformed opinions and assumptions that benefit no one. That's why with everything going on in the streets and the world, it is our duty to learn and listen first in order to better understand the circumstances behind the movement, and the desperate need for change. Don't know where to start? Here's lists of movies to stream, books to read, and articles to learn from. Too overwhelming? There's even a lesson plan for you.

Initiating a conversation with your friends and family members about anti-blackness and police violence may be challenging, but it's a conversation that we need to have. It's important that we learn how to engage in dialogue around racism and injustice openly and candidly within our immediate communities in order to drive effective and sustained change. Luckily there are a number of resources online that can help you figure out where to begin. The National Museum of African American History and Culture offers guidance on Talking About Race. Letters for Black Lives crowdsourced a letter that can be used to start open and honest conversations with family members — they are currently crowdsourcing translations. Teaching Tolerance shared resources for educators on how to start this conversation with young students. I encourage you to join me in reading through these resources, finding more, and starting a conversation even when it's a difficult one. — AC

Tough Weekend: Two Losses Despite Good Effort
After losing a close game to the division leading Camrose Kodiaks Friday night, the Calgary Canucks were looking to get a win against the Drayton Valley Thunder on Saturday night. The Canucks, playing their second game in two days, fell back late in the third. 2:0 was the score after the first in favour of the Thunder after they beat the horn by a second to increase the lead before the break. The Canucks did not let this discourage them and came back in the second. Scott and Ehret scored to tie the game after 40 minutes. This promised an exciting third period coming up. Both teams were battling hard with the Thunder scoring twice in the first 10 minutes of the third period. The Canucks kept batling in an effort to tie the game. Scott decreased the lead to 4:3, scoring his second of the game, with just under two minutes left in the game. As a result, the Canucks pulled the goalie and threw everying they had at the Thunder netminder. Unfortunately, their efforts were not rewarded as Drayton Valley hung on to the tight lead and won the game 4:3.
The Calgary Canucks played two close games and are now looking to get 2 points when they host the Grande Prairie Storm this Wednesday, November 25. Puck Drop is at 7:00 PM.
