Will the Next Generation Have Artificially Intelligent Assistants?
Artificial intelligence (AI) describes projects involving purpose-driven computer hardware and software. When aimed at economically valuable goals, AI projects have proven to be helpful, but they are expensive to develop and are not yet up to some tasks. A big part of the challenge is overcoming shortcomings in how we teach computers to "think." Progress is expected to continue at a rapid pace, producing capabilities that overwhelm our readiness to handle social disruptions.
In raw computing power, computers are superior to humans, but equipping the computer to digest language, context and intent is a huge challenge. For example, how do humans know that a rose is a plant and a tree is a plant, but a tree is not a rose? For adult humans, this seems automatic, but teaching a computer skill with these categorizations is not so automatic.
AI Computers appear wizardly in structured contexts that require brute force logic and calculations to reach the goal. AI computers are smart enough to excel at chess, (IBM's Deep Blue), recently won at Texas Hold 'em Poker (Deep Stack), and in the game of Go. Aside from the rules of the game and the location of exposed game pieces or cards, the AI system must derive the opponents' unstated strategies which sometimes change.
In the law profession, tedious tasks such as document review are usually relegated to junior lawyers, but even at their low hourly rate, document review can incur huge billable charges. There are many AI systems that rely on natural language processing to perform a legal document search. A more advanced AI tool set is Lex Machina, a Lexis Nexis service that can analyze courtroom strategy suitable for handicapping the judge, topic and presenting attorney. These assessments can predict whether it makes more sense to continue through the court process or settle. There remains plenty of work for human lawyers, since just one-quarter of a typical lawyer's work can be handled by today's AI.
AI computers have an affinity for parsing structured data, information that fits in categories such as billing codes or lab test values. Other data that is less structured remains impervious. Symptoms, treatments, images, reports and notes that doctors write about each patient are needed to complete the picture leading to diagnosis, preferred treatment and prognosis. Computers are less capable with unstructured data because digesting it requires making inferences and an understanding of context and intent, something that computers have not yet mastered.
In Japan, the use of care-bots is successful and beginning to flourish. These robots have limited intelligence, but perform duties as game-players or substitutes for live "comfort" animals. The care-bots work well with elderly patients and those with dementia. AI systems with similar depth include the Alexa intelligent personal assistant. It and its competitors (Siri and Cortana) are intelligent in the limited sense that they do natural language processing and pass the results to a search engine such as Google or Bing.
AI systems with deeper intelligence are in use by US physicians for offering help with diagnosing and prescribing. Wary of the time and expense required for FDA approval, companies engineering medical AI systems – at least for now – are careful not to describe them as diagnostic tools but rather as "information banks."
Already there is wide variation in the smarts of AI systems. In some instances, the AI device is rudimentary such as a care-bot or Alexa. In other cases, the AI device supplants some functions of human professionals (in the practice of law or medicine).
The bigger question is, when will AI systems feel like genuine human personal assistants? The answer is difficult because a well-rounded AI assistant would require strong language skills, general knowledge and depth in one or two areas that match the owner's knowledge, and soft skills such as empathy, humor and rudimentary human morality. Much of that would come from software and some from the raw horsepower of computer chips.
A rough guess at the birth-date for the first AI personal assistant is suggested in this anecdote: Mark Papermaster, CTO at AMD recalled a project where 82,944 computers were connected to mimic the actions of a human mind. It worked well enough, but took 2400 times longer to produce answers than a natural human would. That implies that the horsepower of 198,000,000 computers would be needed to keep pace with a human mind.
Moore's Law describes the evolutionary track for computer power, i.e. the number of transistors in a PC doubles every 2 years. In some periods, Moore's law understates the speed gains. If we assume that Moore's Law can apply, it will take 27 to 28 years for computing technology to evolve a PC with the equivalent power of a human's smarts. Adding actuators and a plastic body would complete a humanoid robot. The whole project could be done in just one human generation.
Indeed, the option of having a loyal, thoughtful robot friend could make radical changes in how society evolves. We need to invest some thought and discussion into how that may alter our lives and what safeguards we would want engineered into those "companions."

How bacteria become resistant to antibiotics: McMaster scientists
Researchers at McMaster University in Hamilton say they have discovered how bacteria become resistant to antibiotics, a finding they say could help combat the growing problem.
About 700,000 people die each year around the world from drug resistance: World Health Organization

Ontario researchers say they have discovered how bacteria become resistant to antibiotics, a finding they say could help combat the growing problem.
Maikel Rheinstadter, a physics professor with McMaster University in Hamilton, and Andree Khondker, an undergraduate biochemistry student, said they found bacteria fight off antibiotics by stiffening their cell membranes and changing the barrier's electrical charge, becoming a less attractive target to the drugs.
"We've developed a technique that we could see how the antibiotics are trying to stab the bacterial cells," Rheinstadter said of the research, which was recently published in Nature Communications Biology.
For the drug, it's like going from cutting Jell-O to cutting through rock - Andree Khondker, biochemistry student at McMaster University
The team focused on polymyxin B, an antibiotic used when all other antibiotics have failed. A few years ago Chinese researchers discovered a gene that allows some bacteria to become resistant to the powerful drug.
Antibiotic resistance a serious health-care threat to Canadians, experts say
"The big challenge that we are facing is that the drugs we used to treat diseases with are in the process of not working anymore because bacteria are becoming more and more resistant to these drugs," said Rheinstadter, the lead author of the study.
Rheinstadter said the team used X-ray imaging in parallel with computer simulations to get molecular-level resolution to see how the polymyxin B interacts with the antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Their technique allowed them to view bacteria at a resolution one-millionth the size of a human hair.
Antibiotic resistance one of biggest threats to global health: World Health Org.
They came at the problem with a physics perspective, using techniques often found in materials research, he said.
"The idea we had is every disease and bacteria is treated differently so we tried the opposite — to see if there are common properties of all bacteria, if there is a general mechanism for this bacteria resistance that one could tackle," Rheinstadter said.
Bacterial cells have a membrane around them, which is often negatively charged, Rheinstadter explained. Many antibiotics have a slight positive charge, which makes them attracted to the soft membrane.
Viruses that kill superbugs could save lives when antibiotics don't work
"The antibiotics kind of poke into that membrane and stab the cell to death," Rheinstadter said. "But the bacteria found a mechanism to reduce the charge they have, which makes them less attractive to antibiotics, and they made their membranes tougher."
"For the drug, it's like going from cutting Jell-O to cutting through rock," Khondker added. "This mechanism explains resistance for many types of bacteria to one large group of antibiotics."
Knowing how bacteria fend off antibiotics will allow researchers to design drugs to better circumvent such defences, Rheinstadter said.
"We also think we can use it to screen through potential antibiotic drug candidates," he said. "If researchers come up with new ideas, we can quickly test them if they work."
The World Health Organization says antibiotic resistance is currently one of the biggest threats to global health, food security and development, with the problem increasing around the world.
About 700,000 people die each year around the world from drug resistance in illnesses with that number expected to grow in the coming years, the organization said.
"You could really be in danger if you get your tooth pulled and you get one of these infections, you could die from it," Rheinstadter said. "This is what happened 100 years ago. These times could come back if we don't find a solution."


Where to now for rural broadband? That was the question for those attending the 2018 TUANZ Rural Connectivity Symposium in June. The organisation has just released a report of the event, which shows rural communities continue to face many of the same issues that have been prevalent for a decade.
Feedback from participants at the front of the report show that, unsurprisingly, access to connectivity is top of mind. Comments include: "it isn't easy to connect (even when near fibre-connected schools)", "uptake isn't high enough and cost is in the way", and - perhaps most pressingly - "The Rugby World Cup will drive demand - rural community must not miss the rugby." That last point is a reference to the fact that the broadcasting rights for 2019 World Cup have being awarded to Spark.
The good news is that the report also contains plenty of examples about how rural connectivity is being improved.
Rural Connectivity Group (RCG) Programme Director Andrew Button discussed the next phase of the Rural Broadband Initiative (RBI2). The RCG (a partnership between Vodafone, Spark and 2degrees) won the bulk of the contract to deliver RBI2, and will provide mobile coverage and connectivity to 100 tourist locations, 34,000 homes, 1000km of State Highways and the Chatham Islands.
"I will beg, borrow, steal - partner with anybody and everybody that can make my dollar go further and mean that I can build one more site; build one more rural location that's going to provide value to one more community, one more group of under-served people," he told the conference.
In addition to the RCG, members of the Wireless Internet Service Providers Association (WISPA) are becoming a formidable force in rural connectivity. Its 23 members have a combined customer base of 40,000 across 800 sites, and nine WISPs are also involved in the RBI2 programme.
The importance of collaboration was reinforced in an example provided in the coverage of Robyn Kamira's presentation. She explained how the far North community of Miti Miti became the first site in New Zealand to access RBI fibre through a project called "Miti Miti on the Grid".
"This saw the collaboration of sponsors, funders, technical experts, volunteers and community members who worked together to leverage fibre deployed to Miti Miti's local school to connect the local marae. The project, also undertaken with support from Maori TV programme Marae DIY, enabled both the marae and the surrounding area to have fast speed internet, cell phone coverage, and wifi. Previously, the only connectivity available to Miti Miti was sporadic cell phone coverage - which was only access from the beach, and only at low tide."
Everyone has a right to connectivity, regardless of geography or social status, how do we make it so?
Technology, such as IoT, is here to stay and innovation is happening all the time, how can it be used to improve your rural lifestyle?
Collaboration is key. Engage with Government and provide ideas and solutions for what rural NZ needs. To get connected they need to hear from you."

Top 5 Cities For Holidays At Boutique Hotels
Oct 10 • Traveling • 758 Views • Comments Off on Top 5 Cities For Holidays At Boutique Hotels
Boutique hotels have become more and more common nowadays, offering affordable and unique alternatives to chain hotels in cities across the world. Whatever boutique hotel you choose to stay at on holiday, it is important to know the top attractions and sites of interest in the city you're staying in. Here are just five of the top cities in the world when planning to stay at a boutique hotel.
Historic yet hip, the British capital has certainly been in the spotlight much recently. London offers holidaymakers much to see and do, from West End theatre to cruising the River Thames to exploring iconic landmarks like the Tower of London. No matter what you're into, London has plenty of it.
The city is packed with world-class attractions and landmarks at every turn. A visit to Buckingham Palace offers a glimpse into British royalty while the London Eye boasts brilliant views of the city in every direction. Another must-see landmark is St. Paul's Cathedral, the Christopher Wren masterpiece completed after the Great Fire of London in 1666. London also hosts some of the world's finest museums and galleries such as the British Museum, Tate Modern and the Natural History Museum. Other top attractions in London include the Tower of London, the Tower Bridge, Hyde Park and the iconic Palace of Westminster.
There's really no place on Earth quite like New York City. Be sure to visit Times Square, the vibrant heart of the city's theatre district and home to many of its best shops and restaurants, as well as Central Park, the famed oasis of greenery and serenity in the heart of the city. Both the Empire State Building and Rockefeller Centre offer observation decks with stunning views all around while a cruise to the State of Liberty and Ellis Island is a great way to learn more about the city's immigrant history and heritage. Don't miss out on New York City's world-renowned museums and cultural institutions either, like the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of Modern Art and the American Museum of Natural History.
The broad boulevards, the quaint bistros, the sense of art and romance all around; Paris is an experience like none other. This beautiful city offers much to see and do.
A visit to the soaring Eiffel Tower offers wondrous views of the city and is a must for any holidaymaker. Notre Dame Cathedral is another fascinating and historic attraction while The Louvre boasts world-class artwork and architecture.
A dizzying mix of modern and ancient, Tokyo offers incredible landmarks and attractions like the Imperial Palace, the Meiji Shrine, the National Museums and some of the world's finest shops and restaurants. A stop at Shibuya Crossing is an exhilarating and unforgettable experience as well.
Hong Kong offers brilliant views of the surrounding mountain scenery and Victoria Harbour as well as world-class attractions like Causeway Bay, the Hong Kong Museum of History, Victoria Park, the Hong Kong Maritime Museum and much more.

Don't forget about the ceramic nativity set that my dad makes by hand. Would make a beautiful addition to your Christmas decor. Order now to receive it in time for Christmas!
Each box comes with a little booklet of information about Spain, as well as some recipes. I am excited to try the Patatas Bravas recipe pictured above. I do anticipate using the jams, olive oil, tomato spread, cake, and candy this week during Thanksgiving. We are having some friends visit and I know they will help us finish off this box!
This subscription box is such a cute and fun idea, and I love finding out what is in each box each month. However, I can't justify the price. We are currently trying to get out of debt, and every little bit saved counts. Ultimately I'm glad I gave this company a try, but I will probably not be continuing with my subscription. Keep in mind that this would make a really fun gift for someone - Christmas is coming soon!
I would like to give one of my loyal readers a chance to receive the Spain box for free. All you have to do is pay the $5 for shipping (at this time they only ship to addresses within the US and US territories). If you'd like to enter to win a free Spain box, make sure you are subscribed to my blog and then leave me a comment letting me know your most favorite food. (Mine is probably chips and guacamole and/or cinnamon rolls.) I will notify the winner next Sunday, the 29th of November.
This past weekend we went to Michigan for a friend's wedding. I thought about doing a vlog, but I wasn't planning on bringing my computer and I knew I would run out of phone memory. So instead I decided to take one photo every hour.
8am - At the airport waiting for our plane.
9am - The view out our plane window.
12pm - Peter's best friend's mom picked us up and took us to run some errands, such as picking up some items for the wedding, as well as picking up Peter's tux.
2pm - We made it back to the house and relaxed with Netflix (Pictured is an episode of Sherlock).
3pm - Peter and his best friend.
4pm - A spot of tea to keep us warm. We were not used to 30 degree weather! It's still in the high 70s in Alabama!
5pm - Fully naked trees. Also something that's not a familiar site down south.
6pm - I took a much needed nap and failed to get a picture.
7pm - We were going out for dinner and I could not get a cute picture. They're all blurry because Peter and his friend were making me laugh too much. This was the best I could get.
9pm - Back at the house, back with Netflix!
And that's pretty much where it ends. We went to bed early that night.
I hope you enjoyed this post! I will soon be posting a bit more about the trip. It was a great time to catch up with friends and take a little break from school!
I put my hand in there for size comparisons.
Well, on a whole I'd say these products are not worth the price I paid for this box. However, it is super fun to receive a box of surprises every month. So now I'm torn... it's fun to see what I will get, and I do enjoy the items (and will probably use them or give them as gifts), but on the other hand, it's not worth the money.
What would you do? Would you try a subscription? Or do you think the products aren't worth the price? Let me know below!
2. Online shopping or shopping in person?
Depends what it's for. I HATE trying on clothes, so I'd rather buy them online. But then there's the pesky business of them not always fitting when they arrive... I love shopping in person for accessories and makeup.
3. If you could live in any fiction TV show, what would it be and why?
4. Do you know your heritage/ where your ancestors are from?
5. What was one of your best experiences in life so far?
Getting married. Aww mushy gushy. It's been the best, though. Good decision.
7. You are in charge of your country for one day. What law do you change, abolish or bring in?
Hm this one is hard. There are so many things! Kerri (from Crumbs in the Bed) said she would abolish smoking and I really like that answer. Or I think I'd make the driver's test harder. There are so many horrible, bad drivers these days. It's like they don't even know what they're doing! Your car has blinkers, people! Use them!
8. What 3 things do you like most about yourself?
My hair (which I would not have answered 10 years ago...), my eyes, and that I look decent without makeup on.
No Makeup, except now that I look closer one half of my lips have lipstick... because I was testing the color in comparison to my natural lipstick color. Oh well, close enough to makeup-free.
9. When do you feel most afraid?
I burp and fart out loud. Not in public, but at home. My husband hates it.
11. When you wish upon a star, what do you wish for?
I haven't done that in so long. When I was younger I think I would wish for friends. I think now I would wish for contentment.
The sun is technically a star, right?
I tag everyone! I'd love to know how you'd answer these questions.
Leave your answers in the comments, or if you do a blog post, leave a link below!

Simon Romero Quotes
Well, Lula has an incredible amount of sway still. He's someone who came up from very humble origins, so his life trajectory is something that many people in Brazil still identify with. So within the governing Workers' Party, he has a lot of power. He has power to name ministers, some people say. And he's very close with the current president as well. She's his handpicked successor.
— Simon Romero
The most eye-opening Simon Romero quotes that will be huge advantage for your personal development
You know, there's a growing level of disenchantment with governing institutions in Brazil. And in a sense, it's a healthy development because you have investigators and prosecutors going to work and finding out these things and revealing them to the public. But as a result, you have a lot of growing distrust in the way that government functions in Brazil.
Lula was really the face of Brazil's boom in the previous decade and is one of the most towering politicians in the country today, so for this investigation to find get to him is an enormous deal.
Not in the sense of investigators saying that she [Lula] was personally enriched as a result of the scandal, but there are new reports emerging this week claiming that she may have had a hand in trying to derail the investigations. She was chairwoman of the board for years, so she has come under a good deal of criticism over not having identified the wrongdoing at that time.

New faculty: Sharece Thrower examines how U.S. presidents exercise, expand power
by Jim Patterson Oct. 5, 2016, 5:08 PM
Sharece Thrower was photographed at the War Memorial Building and Legislative Plaza. (Susan Urmy/Vanderbilt)
There's one thing we already know about the chief executive who will follow President Obama into the White House, according to Sharece Thrower, Vanderbilt's newest presidential scholar. "With every president, there's been an accumulation of a little bit more power," said the assistant professor of political science recruited from the University of Pittsburgh. "Each president has a more expansive reading of the Constitution over time."
Thrower has more than 10 studies in various stages of development seeking to understand how American presidents hold, exercise and expand their power. It's a fascination that dates back to her childhood in the Columbus suburb of Reynoldsburg, Ohio, growing up the daughter of a fourth-grade teacher and a choir director. "I guess I was always interested in politics," she said.
Given that fact, Thrower assumed law school would be her destination after graduating from Ohio State University.
"In the summer between my junior and senior years in college, I got involved in the Summer Research Opportunities Program at Ohio State," she said. "It got me interested in doing research, and the program was tailored for people who wanted to go to grad school and pursue a Ph.D. It worked, and after that I changed direction."
After earning her Ph.D. in politics from Princeton University, Thrower accepted a post as assistant professor of political science at Pittsburgh. She taught and did research there for three years.
"I was very happy at Pitt. I loved it there," Thrower said. "But to be honest, Vanderbilt had always been a dream school to me."
Alan Wiseman, associate professor of political science at Vanderbilt, said he had been following Thrower's progress "since she knocked on my door as a rising senior at Ohio State," where Wiseman formerly taught.
"I'm thrilled that we were able to lure Sharece away from Pitt," Wiseman said. "She is well-positioned to be one of the strongest younger scholars studying the American presidency and executive politics. Students at the undergraduate and graduate levels will benefit immensely from having her in the classroom." Thrower's research has already appeared in the American Journal of Political Science, The Journal of Law, Economics, and Organization and Presidential Studies Quarterly.
There's just one area of university life at Vanderbilt that gives her pause.
"I'm a big Ohio State football fan," she said. "I was indoctrinated at a young age, so that's my non-academic passion."

When the Homeland Security Act was finally signed by the president after many weeks of extensive media coverage of the congressional warfare over the bill, I saw nothing of the most significant result of it all—the decision to ban what had been a key provision.
Democratic senator Patrick Leahy of Vermont had tried months ago to get Operation TIPS out of the Senate version of the bill, but Joe Lieberman, chair of the Governmental Affairs Committee, ignored his letter asking for the killing of the nationwide governmental surveillance program.
At no time did the Justice Department indicate how it planned to train this horde of amateur spies. Accordingly, as Leahy emphasized, "such a setup could have allowed unscrupulous participants to abuse their new status to place innocent neighbors under undue scrutiny." Much worse yet, the names of these innocent suspects would be transferred by the Justice Department to FBI, CIA, and other government databases that are now permitted to exchange "intelligence" information under the Homeland Security Act.
Recently, a source inside the Justice Department told me that—contrary to what I originally wrote in this column—Operation TIPS not only wasn't Ashcroft's idea, but he was uncomfortable with the project. Being a team player, he never criticized this national-spying-corps plan publicly.
As attorney general of the United States, however, Ashcroft has rewritten much of the Bill of the Rights in the USA Patriot Act and has unilaterally eviscerated the First, Fifth, and Sixth amendments. And most sweepingly, he has revoked core Fourth Amendment privacy rights. Even for the current version of John Ashcroft, Operation TIPS may have been a tad too much. But Governor Pataki loves it fine for New York State (see my Voice column of November 20-26).
The Bush administration's most radical revision of the Bill of Rights—the Donald Rumsfeld-Admiral Poindexter Total Information Awareness system detailed here last week—has not been criticized by Ashcroft publicly, although it does so much more than "vitiate" the Bill of Rights.
Under a similar arrangement, the ACLU has brought on board another conservative Republican libertarian, Bob Barr of Georgia, defeated for re-election in November. Barr has been a vigorous and consistent opponent of the Bush administration's attacks on civil liberties, including the Total Information Awareness system.
But we citizens have power, too.

Vayechi: 17 Plus 17
By Rabbi Jay Kelman, January 1, 2021
Sefer Breisheet begins with the grandeur of creation, detailing the many new life forms, and with great hope for the human race. This hope was to be short-lived, with story after story of man's pettiness and propensity for evil. By the end of the book, the theme is that of death, and the stage is set for the enslavement of the Jewish people.

Pinchas: Three Models of Leadership

Parshat Pinchas presents us with at least three distinct models of leadership.

Chukat: Undressing Aaron
By Rabbi Jay Kelman, July 3, 2020
"Take Aaron, and Elazar his son, and bring them up to Mount Hor; and strip Aaron of his vestments, and dress Elazar his son in them; Aaron shall be gathered in and die there" (Bamidbar 20:25-26). It was only after Adam and Eve sinned in the Garden of Eden that man had a need for clothing: "then the eyes of both of them [Adam and Eve] were opened and they realized that they were naked" (Breisheet 3:7). Up until the point of sin, the spiritual and physical worlds were in complete harmony; there was no need to cover any parts of our physical being.

Korach: When Silence is Not Golden
By Rabbi Jay Kelman, June 26, 2020
It is most difficult to solve a problem if the protagonists will not meet with each other and hear each other out. While there is no guarantee that talking will solve an issue, there is a guarantee that silence will perpetuate the problem.

Shavuot: An Evolving Torah
By Rabbi Jay Kelman, May 29, 2020
"Rav Yossi said: It would have been appropriate had the Torah been given through Ezra, but Moshe preceded him… and even though the Torah was not given by him [Ezra], it was changed by him" (Sanhedrin 21b). The Talmud explains that this change relates to the "font" of the Torah, which was changed from ketav Ivri, the initial font in which the Torah was given, to ketav Ashurit, the "font" we have today in our Torah scrolls.

Acharei Mot-Kedoshim: On Our Way
By Rabbi Jay Kelman, May 1, 2020
"Do not follow the ways of Egypt, where you once lived" (Vayikra 18:2). The Jewish people's formative years were those we spent in the land of Egypt, something for which we are to be eternally grateful. "Do not despise the Egyptian, since you were an immigrant in his land" (Devarim 23:8).

Shemot: Irrational Thinking
By Rabbi Jay Kelman, January 17, 2020
Amongst the unsung heroes of the Jewish people are Shifra and Puah. Despite the genocidal decrees of the Egyptian regime against Jewish newborns, these two unknown women risked their lives to save the lives of others. This is all the more remarkable according to those commentaries that claim that Shifra and Puah were non-Jews, and thus, the first of the Righteous Gentiles.

Tazria and Hachodesh: Home Building
By Rabbi Jay Kelman, April 5, 2019
The first of Nissan and the first of Tishrei mark the beginnings of the Jewish year. The solar aspect of our calendar—representing the fixed laws of nature—begins in Tishrei; whereas the lunar cycle—symbolizing the ups and down of Jewish history—begins on the first of Nissan.

Yitro: Yes and No
Vayedaber Hashem el Moshe lei'mor is the most commonly occurring verse of the Bible. While it is usually translated as, "G-d spoke to Moshe, saying", our rabbis saw additional meaning in the word lei'mor. If it only meant "saying", then it would be superfluous; if the Torah tells us that G-d spoke to Moshe, then surely something was said.

VaYigash: Looking Ahead
By Rabbi Jay Kelman, December 14, 2018
Since the time of Joseph, infighting has been the Achilles heel of the Jewish people, causing untold pain, suffering and national calamity. So much of our collective energies are wasted on disagreements with others; many of them are so trivial when viewed from the perspective of history. The schisms of the 19th century, caused to a large extent by such topics as sermons in the vernacular or the placement of the bimah in a shul, are being felt today in ways that many are not even aware of.
Read more about VaYigash: Looking Ahead


Acqua di Parma launched Colonia Assoluta in 2003. It is a unisex fragrance, created by Jean Claude Ellena and Bernard Duchaufour, and features notes of orange, bergamot, verbena, cardamom, pink pepper, pimento, jasmine, ylang ylang, rose, wild orchid, cedar, aromatic Thai resins, patchouli, white musk and amber. The "he" below is Marlen, one of the moderators on the basenotes forum, joining me for our third joint review.
He Says: One of my favorite warm weather scents, Colonia Assoluta offers a refreshing and refined bouquet without resorting to employing currently popular notes of tea and grapefruit, and without any ozone or marine accords.
What Colonia Assoluta does offer is a sparkling and seemlessly blended eau de cologne with both a refreshing and pleasant sillage and better than average lasting power. On my skin, none of the individual notes are ever emphasized though the fragrance transforms ever-so-subtly into a slightly warmer white woods scent in the drydown. A total pleasure to wear in all its stages, there's just something so right about this sophisticated scent for warm summer days.
She Says: I should start by saying that I have never cared for the original Acqua di Parma Colonia, which smells nice in the bottle but turns bitter, soapy and harsh on my skin. Colonia Assoluta starts off nicely with peppered citrus notes and lovely undertones of cardamom. I would swear there is a hint of cumin as well, but perhaps I am getting paranoid about cumin. At any rate, the top notes are sparkling and light and summery.
As it dries down, the fragrance changes gears entirely. The citrus and spice notes fade into a flat woody-musky scent with light florals. I agree entirely with Marlen that individual notes are not emphasized: I don't smell rose, or jasmine, or ylang. It just smells dull and rather nondescript.
It has more depth than the original Colonia, lasts longer, and has none of Colonia's harshness. If given the choice between the two, I would pick Assoluta over the original Colonia. But I would rather not wear either.
Colonia Assoluta is an Eau de Cologne. For buying information, see the listing for Acqua di Parma under Perfume Houses.
Thanks for the review, R. For once, I'm agreeing with Marlen! As I mentioned about Iris Nobile the other day, I find IN kind of soapy, yet I don't with CA. It's one of the few cologne-y scents that work on me – light and sparkly but with unexpected warmth – and I woud have bought it but for H's nose-wrinkling (he thought it was too perfume-y!).
NST, I was just about to say to Gert 'let's try it, why don't we' and then you said you'd rather not wear it.
I love the aesthetics of the packaging and I heard rumors about Cary Grant, so I once sampled Acqua di Parma for a week straight to make myself learn to love it. Didn't happen. It is harsh and bitter on my skin. Might be the bergamot acting out on me again. I am now completely over AdP in any form. At least I can now add AdP to my short list of common ground with you.
N, I just ignore nose-wrinkling, or I'd be limited to one or two fragrances!
Who knows, Gert might love it!
K, I love the packaging too. Very classic. And love the yellow boxes too.
You could be right. She's a contrarian, that one.
K, Poor Bernard Duchaufour, LOL! He made my much loved Calamus so I won't hold this against him.
I love cypress — too bad about the Cipresso di Toscanna. Haven't tried it yet.
there are always so many reasons i want to love a perfume, other than the obvious olfactory ones. "mechant loup" for it's killer name, "jean reno loves you" so i can bite my thumb at the rest of the french-speaking world, and now, it seems i'm not alone in having wanted to love "acqua" for it's packaging. i did not love it, i'm sad to admit, since i ended up with an expensive (duty free or not) bottle. i found that after a mere hour of citrus glory, it faded on my skin into a cross between jean-nate and popcorn. i know!! popcorn! what gives? anyway, i feel betrayed enough to not try "colonia assoluta" until i get a free sample. enter lacan.
The packaging is so nicely done, and it definitely made it easier to buy Iris Nobile. But Jean Nate & popcorn, LOL! That is not appealing.
R, you know I love these he said/she said features. Always a good read, thanks both of you.
Assoluta is my favourite amoung colonias. I like the drydown very much.
And what I don't understand is how those two very charismatic perfumers could work together on one project. It's like to ask two poets write one poem.
It does seem odd. Perhaps one of them started it & the other finished it…that does happen from time to time for various reasons.
This one is not unimpressive, from what I'm experiencing from my sample. Smells like a possible future signature note. Might have to try Intensa too.
I like Intensa better than either of these — it's worth a shot!
Great review! I think both viewpoints actually reflect my opinion. Colonia Assoluta would be wonderful on a man, because it is uncommonly fresh and light for many men's fragrances. But for me, personally (from the female point of view), meh. For women, there are lots of lighter and fresher things out there, and the other components in the fragrance don't make it unique. For some reason, it makes me think of a masculinized version of Fresh Lemon Sugar.
I think I heard a rumor (nothing more) that it was to be discontinued? I do think they did a better job on the Intensa.

Apple iTV may be Ultra HD, but won't arrive until 2014, analyst claims
Chris Smith | March 12, 2013 7:58 pm GMT
It's all gone quiet on the Apple iTV rumour front lately, and perhaps with good reason.
One analyst has claimed that the much-vaunted flatscreen TV has been delayed until 2014 with Apple seeking to launch an affordable that still "looks like" an Ultra HD set.
In a note to investors, Peter Misek of Jefferies said that Apple wants the hardware to 'stand out' beyond the perspective, revolutionary integration of iOS, the App Store and the iTunes ecosystem.
Misek says Apple is hedging its bets on an Ultra HD-like television set, but without the super-high costs currently projected for those next-gen screens.
He inferred that Apple will wait for its display manufacturers like LG and Sharp to yield more Ultra HD screens at lower costs in order to make its grand flatscreen offering a more affordable solution for consumers.
He wrote: "We had thought that Apple's software and ecosystem would be enough to drive demand but our checks indicate that Apple wants the hardware to also stand out.
"We believe Apple wants a display that looks like 4K/Ultra HD but without the super-premium cost."
Misek had initially predicted a March unveiling for the Apple iTV, with a commercial launch sometime in September, but it seems clear now that those projections will prove wide of the mark.
Some of the Ultra HD TV offerings touted at CES 2013 have seen price-tags upwards of £15,000 and it's difficult to see Apple finding a way to lower that enough for the mass market adoption it would certainly seek from a TV launch.
Misek, who's track record in these matters is a little hit and miss also suggested there's a 50 per cent chance that Apple will also launch an iWatch before the end of this calendar year.
Beyond that, he had an iPhone 5S will come in the autumn with Apple saving the iPhone 6 for the first quarter of 2014. Make of that what you will, but we're still taking these predictions with a pinch of salt.

A node.js module for delivering static files.

## Current Status

This module is used by [tempalias.com](http://tempalias.com/) in production
and is mainted by [Felix Geisendörfer](https://github.com/felixge). However,
this one one of my first node modules and it lacks a test suite, you've been
warned : ).

## Features

 * Configurable callbacks on most events
 * ETag / 304 Support
 * Custom HTTP headers

## Example

Example from example/basic.js:

    var
      path = require('path'),
      http = require('http'),
      jayli = require('../lib/jayli'),

      PORT = 8003,
      WEBROOT = path.join(path.dirname(__filename), 'webroot');

    http.createServer(function(req, res) {
      var ip = req.connection.remoteAddress;
      jayli
        .deliver(WEBROOT, req, res)
        .addHeader('Expires', 300)
        .addHeader('X-PaperRoute', 'Node')
        .before(function() {
          console.log('Received Request');
        })
        .after(function(statCode, filepath, fileBuffer, encoding) {
          log(statCode, req.url, ip);
          return fileBuffer;
        })
        .error(function(statCode, msg) {
          res.writeHead(statCode, {'Content-Type': 'text/plain'});
          res.end("Error " + statCode);
          log(statCode, req.url, ip, msg);
        })
        .otherwise(function(err) {
          res.writeHead(404, {'Content-Type': 'text/plain'});
          res.end("Error 404: File not found");
          log(404, req.url, ip, err);
        });
    }).listen(PORT);

    function log(statCode, url, ip, err) {
      var logStr = statCode + ' - ' + url + ' - ' + ip;
      if (err)
        logStr += ' - ' + err;
      console.log(logStr);
    }

## API Docs

### ssi included

#### 代码样例

#### 使用说明
##### 路径
-------------------------------------------------
    通过file或属性制定的路径若以"."或".."开头则视为相对
    路径,否则视为据对路径,当视为绝对路径时,以项目
    的src目录作为根目录. 所以上面的代码用绝对路径表示
    可以这样写:

    或者

##### 重复
-----------------------------------------------
    可以通过repeat参数来指定重复次数比如:

##### 简单变量插入
------------------------------------------------
    可以通过添加以$开头的属性指定插入文件中可以使用的变量,比如:

    那么sub.html就可以以如下格式使用这些变量:
       index  : <%=$__index__ + 1%>
       colum  : <%=$__index__ % 3%>
       total  : <%=$__count__%>
       gender : <%=$gender == 'f' ? '男' : '女' %>
       name   : <%=$name%>
       age    : <%=$age%>

    上面的例子中有两个变量:$__count__、$__index__,
    这两个变量是系统自动添加进去的,分别代表文件被
    重复的次数以及当前重复索引(以0为起始).

     在使用简单变量插入功能时可以使用如下运算符:
        +  -  *  /  %  >=  <=  !=  >  <  ?:
     注意: 不支持括号,不支持多个三目运算符的嵌套.

    注意: 在本程序中凡是以双下划线* "__"开头的变量名都
    是系统自动注入的,在inc-vars中不要使用这样变量名,
    否则有可能会被覆盖掉.

### mockdata

src html file include juicer template and mock data

source file

		{@each list as it,index}

${it.name} (index: ${index})

		{@/each}
		{@each blah as it}

				num: ${it.num}

				{@if it.num==3}
					{@each it.inner as it2}
						${it2.time}

					{@/each}
				{@/if}

		{@/each}

output

(index: 0)

### PHP support

PHP file is ok。get url query string:

	if(isset($argv)){
		$_GET = (array)(json_decode($argv[2]));
	}
	echo $_GET['a'];

### jayli.deliver(webroot, req, res)

Checks the `webroot` folder if it has a file that matches the `req.url` and streams it to the client. If `req.url` ends with a '/' (slash), 'index.html' is appended automatically.

Parameters:

* `webroot`: Absolute path where too look for static files to serve
* `req`: A `http.ServerRequest` object
* `res`: A `http.ServerResponse` object

This returns an object with several functions that you can call, to modify how the static content is delivered. Each of these functions returns the object, so you can chain them, as shown in the example above. They each take a callback function, whose arguments and expected behavior are detailed below.

#### before(callback())

Fires if a matching file was found in the `webroot` and is about to be delivered. The delivery can be canceled by returning `false` from within the callback.

#### after(callback(statCode, filepath, fileBuffer, encoding))

Fires after a file has been successfully delivered from the `webroot`. `statCode` contains the numeric HTTP status code that was sent to the client. You must close the connection yourself if the error callback fires!

> after 回调现已支持将文件 Buffer 对外暴露出来,从而进行按需处理(如替换页面引入的静态资源、修改 DOM 等)之后再响应回客户端。
>
> 参数:
> 	- statCode: 状态码;
> 	- filepath: 文件路径;
> 	- fileBuffer: 文件Buffer;
> 	- encoding: 文件编码

#### error(callback(statCode, msg))

Fires if there was an error delivering a file from the `webroot`. `statCode` contains the numeric HTTP status code that was sent to the client. `msg` contains the error message. You must close the connection yourself if the error callback fires! The default callback shows a minimal HTTP error page.

#### otherwise(callback(err))

Fires if no matching file was found in the `webroot`. Also fires if `false` was returned in the `delegate.before()` callback. If there was a problem stating the file, `err` is set to the contents of that error message. The default callback shows a simple "HTTP 404 File Not Found" page.

#### addHeader(callback(name, value))

Sets an arbitrary HTTP header. The header name `Expires` is special and expects the number of milliseconds till expiry, from which it will calculate the proper HTTP date.

The date on which both sides to a transaction agree to exchange payments.
A value date is a future date that is used for determining the present value of a product or security that fluctuates in price. It is the date at which funds, assets, or money's value becomes effective. Typically, value dates are used in determining the payment of financial products and accounts where there is a possibility for discrepancies due to differences in the timing of valuations. Such financial products can include forward currency contracts, option contracts, and the interest payable or receivable on personal accounts.
In forex markets, the value date may be referred to as the "valuta," where it may also be used to describe the value of one currency expressed in terms of its exchange rate with another.

Q: Understanding CPU usage in linux using "top" command for VLC usage I have 2 quad core processors and I cant seem to understand what "top" is telling me.
I run a VLC transcoding application and i currently transcode 8 streams and "top" shows me that I am using 200% of my CPU. Now for a Pentium 3 that would be horribly bad but I dont understand how Linux calculates CPU usage with multi core processors.
Does this mean that my both processors are utilized 100%? 2 cores at 100%?
I also ran ffmpeg application for the same purpose and I could run 8 instances at 90% each which seemed to me like each processoss would occupy 1 core.
VLC has much lower CPU usage footprint so I just want to make sure I am not killing the hardware.

A: The output of top stating %cpu = 200 could be that of two cores at 100% or all eight using 25%
Being that you have 2 quadcores the %cpu would range from 0 - 800%

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Congressman Clay Higgins (R-LA) introduced H. Con. Res. 135, the Exposing Congressional Drug Abuse Act, which enacts random drug screenings for members of the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate.
Members of Congress would reimburse American taxpayers for all costs of the program. If a member tests positive for illegal drug use, they would be reported to the Committee on Ethics, where the appropriate and subsequent action would be taken.
Congressman Higgins proposed mandatory drug testing earlier this year in a Facebook video that was filmed after completing a random drug screening for the Lafayette City Marshal's Office. Congressman Higgins retains his POST State Certification as a Deputy Marshal.

Giselle Rosselli is an Australian singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and producer, sometimes seen mononymously as Giselle. Rosselli provided lead vocals and wrote lyrics for the first original song by indie electro DJ duo, Flight Facilities, Crave You. The track was listed at No. 19 on the Hottest 100 of 2010, by listeners of national radio station, Triple J. Also in 2010 Rosselli's track, "They Stay Down Deep", was featured on the United Kingdom TV series Skins (series 4, episode 7). In April 2012 Rosselli released a solo single, "Silk".

Biography

Giselle Rosselli was born on 2 December 1990 and was raised in Sydney. She is the daughter of local architect, Luigi Rosselli, and visual artist, Juliet Holmes à Court. Rosselli has two brothers. Growing up in a creative family, she began to write her own music as a way of developing her artistic independence and creativity. Originally studying mathematics at the University of Melbourne, she deferred her course in mid-2010 to pursue writing and recording full-time.

Rosselli worked with indie electro DJ duo, Flight Facilities on the track, "Crave You". The duo consists of Hugo Gruzman and James Lyell and they began mixing tracks by other artists in 2009. Rosselli co-wrote "Crave You" with Gruzman and Lyell.  As a remix the song "Crave You" was featured on MTV's partnered website Ourstage through American Rap artist Jay Entendre formerly known as The Kid Bilal as a remix called "She Craves Me".

Gruzman told Dave Ruby Howe of In the Mix how the duo had contacted Rosselli to get help with their first original track. Rosselli had met Gruzman in mid-2009, he was interested in using her skill on xylophone, however, after "[I] heard her sing and I just knew that she had to do the song. We sent the track over to her and she smashed it. We were so lucky to be able to work with her, she's just great". It was listed at No. 19 on the Hottest 100 of 2010, by listeners of national radio station, Triple J. As a remix it was featured on MTV's partnered website Ourstage through American rap artist, The Kid Bilal, as "She Craves Me". It was used as the soundtrack to Myer's 2010 Spring Racing Carnival TV commercial campaign.

In October 2010 she provided vocals for Bag Raiders debut album of the same name.  Also in that year Rosselli's track, "They Stay Down Deep", was used on the United Kingdom TV series, Skins series 4, episode 7.

In April 2012 Rosselli issued a solo single, "Silk", which received rotation at Triple J by Richard Kingsmill. Chad Hillard of HillyDilly website praised her vocals "it's as if everything else you were thinking about disappears. Stress, anxiety, whatever, once her voice hits you, everything dissipates". In October 2012 she released another single, "Nigerian Rubiks Cube".

Yesterday started without a word from the commander in chief about why he killed the second most powerful man in Iran. Defense Secretary Mark Esper said that we aren't looking to start a war but we are prepared to finish one. When a reporter asked him if he would resign if Trump gave him an order to violate international law he said, "Barbara, I'm not going to get into hypotheticals. I'm fully confident the commander in chief would not give us an illegal order."
He would give an illegal order and we can't finish the wars we're in now. 18 year olds who have enlisted have never known a time when we weren't at war.
Reminder: Mark Esper is a former lobbyist for defense contractor Raytheon and the commander in chief, an impeached president, doesn't have any military experience.
WWIII fun fact: The contractor whose death Trump supposedly avenged was a naturalized US citizen born in Iraq, the kind of American that Trump singles out as not being real Americans and threatens to deport.
Trump invited the press into the Oval Office for a meet and greet with the prime minister of Greece yesterday. He invited Mike Pompeo to sit in on it in case the press asked Trump any questions about Iran that he couldn't answer.
"We're prepared to attack if we have to for retribution. Politicians who are trying to win the presidency are the only ones complaining………the memo to Iraq from the Pentagon was a hoax, right, Mike? It was a draft, an unsigned letter, and the media knew it…….impeachment is a partisan witch hunt hoax and the laughing stock around the world. It started before I came down the escalator with the great First Lady……. we have a tremendous Greek population. Over 3 million people as I understand it. That's fantastic. I really feel I know most of them. I think I know all of them, come to think of it."
A few hours after Trump blathered on in the Oval Office, Iran fired a dozen ballistic missiles into two Iraqi military bases where US military and coalition personnel were stationed and then went back for more. They hit the same base that Trump said Iran was going to attack before he intervened and saved the world from Soleimani by killing him.
Mike Pence called members of Congress to tell them about the attack because Trump was in over his head.
The Pentagon is saying that Iran intentionally spared killing our troops but Iran says they killed 80 (um, the Pentagon also said that they goofed and accidentally sent a memo to Iraq saying American troops were leaving the country in English and Farsi.)
Qassem Soleimani's funeral had to be postponed because 56 people were killed in a stampede that broke out during a mourners' event in his hometown of Kerman.
A Ukrainian passenger plane crashed after takeoff in Tehran after Iran attacked US troops in Iraq. All 176 people on board were killed — 11 Ukrainian, 82 Iranian, 63 Canadian, 3 German, 3 British, 10 Swedish, and 4 Afghans. Iran says it will not hand over the black boxes to Boeing.
Vladimir Putin is in the region. He made an unannounced visit to Damascus yesterday. He goes to Istanbul today to meet with President Erdogan.
Fox News' Laura Ingraham said Trump is in this situation because he inherited it from Obama and Bush. GOP leader Kevin McCarthy blames Adam Schiff for being so preoccupied with impeachment that he couldn't keep us safe.
Retired General Barry McCaffrey said, "The American people, I'm confident, don't understand that we're right on the verge of high-intensity war in the Persian Gulf."
"So in just two and one-half months, we have seen Trump make two colossally and increasingly boneheaded, dangerous, and impulsive foreign-policy judgments: the greenlighting of Turkey's invasion of northeastern Syria, and now mindlessly playing chicken with Iran." — George Conway
Before any military families were notified about the fate of their sons, daughters, wives, husbands, sisters and brothers, Trump put out a stupid tweet: All is well! Missiles launched from Iran at two military bases located in Iraq. Assessment of casualties & damages taking place now. So far, so good! We have the most powerful and well equipped military anywhere in the world, by far! I will be making a statement tomorrow morning.
Trump addressed the nation for 10 minutes this morning and was half and hour late because he had to keep the world waiting and needed to revel in the attention before making a big important entrance, surrounded by natural light coming from an open door like a halo around Jesus, and flanked by generals and big important people. He asked countries to abandon the Iran Deal and asked NATO to get more involved in the Middle East. He said the US doesn't need Middle East oil because we have enough of our own, and he bragged about how he rebuilt our military to be the biggest and baddest military ever but he doesn't want to use it, and then he went into a cotton mouth soliloquy about how great he and America is. He didn't present any evidence that Soleimani actually presented an imminent threat to America and he didn't give us any information about what to expect next, just that any funny business from Iran will not be "tolerited."
"Our president read off that teleprompter with all the sincerity of a teenager forced to apologize for leaving a flaming bag of dog shit on his neighbor's porch" — Jeff Tiedrich
"Standard Trump play: create an unnecessary crisis, claim credit for it not becoming an even worse crisis, sit back and watch pundits clap like seals." — Matt Duss
Tomorrow he's scheduled to do a MAGA rally in Toledo where he will throw out bloody get-the-bad guys bones to his rabid, semi-literate groupies.
The world will be watching.

The fourth region is "rude" - updates to it must be announced immediately.
Description of the expected behavior: After presenting the heading, the user agent should present the text in each of the live region areas at the time. It should then proceed to the "Summary" section followed by the "Description of expected behavior" section. It should then continue to read the filler text until the end of the document and stop. Updates to the "off" region should be ignored as that region is marked as not being a live region. Updates to the "polite" region should be announced when the user is idling; if users are doing something, they should not be interrupted with updates to the "polite" region. However, when the "assertive" region is updated, the user agent should announce the update as soon as possible (for example, after the sentence that it is currently reading). When the "rude" region is updated, the user agent should immediately stop whatever it is currently reading and announce the update.

I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Netflix with the additions of Rajkummar Rao's 2019 comedy Made in China and director Rima Das's Assamese film Bulbul Can Singh. The Nawazuddin Siddiqui-Athiya Shetty romantic-comedy Motichoor Chaknachoor arrives on the service on January 20.
I also updated my list of Bollywood movies on Amazon Prime with a bunch of Indian films added in the last week, including the John Abraham-led ensemble comedy Pagalpanti. Two Yash Raj Films titles — Qaidi Band and Titli (which is good but gross) — are finally available for streaming as well. Other recently added 2019 releases include:
90 ML (Telugu)
Bhagyangara Veedullo Gammathu (Telugu)
Chennai Io Ragal 24 Gantalu (Telugu)
Kettiyolaanu Ente Malakha (Malayalam)
Software Sudheer (Telugu)
V1 Murder Case (Tamil)
Venky Mama (Telugu)
Venky Mama (Telugu, 4K Ultra HD)
Two new shows debut on Prime on Friday, January 17 — the Russell Peters comedy series Deported and the thriller series Afsos, starring Gulshan Devaiah. It looks pretty good. [Update: The release of Afsos was postponed "due to unforeseen circumstances".]

I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Netflix — which increased dramatically on December 31 with the addition of 60 Hindi films — with a January 30 release date for Karan Johar's new series What the Love!. The official series description makes it sound like a show designed to appeal to Queer Eye fans: "With help from celebrity guests and a glam squad, filmmaker Karan Johar mentors six singletons through their personal struggles as they look for love."
I also updated my list of Bollywood movies on Amazon Prime with more than twenty Indian titles added in the last week or so, including the wacky killer animal movie Roar: Tigers of the Sundarbans and the following 2019 releases:
Devaki (Kannada)
Enai Noki Paayum Thota (Tamil)
Enai Noki Paayum Thota (Tamil, 4K Ultra HD)
Irandam Ulagaporin Kadaisi Gundu (Tamil)

I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Netflix with the addition of seven Punjabi films — including the 2019 releases Guddiyan Patole and High End Yaariyaan — and the romantic comedy The Zoya Factor. The Sonam Kapoor Ahuja-Dulquer Salmaan-starrer didn't make a splash at the box office, but I thought it was really fun.
Even more intriguing than what was added is what's on its way to Netflix. The Hindi version of Saaho arrives on December 8, followed by The Sky Is Pink on December 11. It also turns out that Netflix is the new home for the Excel Entertainment back catalog, which left Amazon Prime last week. (More recent releases like Gully Boy will stay on Prime for the foreseeable future.) Netflix was Excel's original streaming partner about 4 or 5 years ago. We've got new web addresses and a confirmed debut date of December 15 for all of the Excel films that haven't been on Netflix before, including Bangistan, Dil Dhadakne Do, Game, and Karthik Calling Karthik.
While I can't confirm that the rest of the catalog will definitely return on December 15, here are the addresses for all of the Excel films that were previously on Netflix so that you can add them to your List, just in case:
Dil Chahta Hai (2001) — ★★★★
Don (2006)
Don 2 (2011) — ★★½
Fukrey (2013) — ½★

I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Amazon Prime with the addition of Sye Raa Narasimha Reddy, which is available in the following languages: Kannada/4K UHD, Malayalam/4K UHD, Tamil/4K UHD, and Telugu/4K UHD. The Hindi version should become available next week. Other recently added 2019 releases include Doorbeen (Punjabi), Mafi Dona (Malayalam), and the Hindi-dubbed version of the Malayalam movie Mikhael. [Disclaimer: All of my Amazon links include an affiliate tag that may earn me commissions on purchases.]
In other Amazon Prime news, most of the Excel Entertainment back catalog is set to expire by the end of this month. Unlike the recent departures of movies from Yash Raj Films and Dharma Productions, I'm not sure that this exodus is permanent. Excel has new seasons of Inside Edge and Mirzapur coming to Amazon in the next few months, and I haven't found any news stories about them striking a deal with another streamer. Still, if you have any of their titles in your Watchlist, you might want to watch them in the next week. Excel's fantastic debut production, Dil Chahta Hai, expires on November 27, followed by these other titles on November 28:
Bangistan (2015) — ★½
Dil Dhadakne Do (2015) —★★★★
Game (2011) — ★★
Karthik Calling Karthik (2010) — ★★★
Rock On (2008) — ★★★½
I also updated my list of Bollywood movies on Netflix with the additions of the 2019 Telugu releases Dorasaani and Mallesham and the documentary Bikram: Yogi, Guru, Predator.

I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Amazon Prime with dozens of Indian films added in the last week. Notable additions in the last day include Sanjay Dutt's September theatrical release Prassthanam and the Amazon original series One Mic Stand, in which celebrities like Taapsee Pannu and Richa Chadha are coached in the art of standup comedy.

I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Netflix with the worldwide premiere of the Hindi heist film Drive, starring Jacqueline Fernandez and Sushant Singh Rajput. Producer Karan Johar wasn't confident enough to release this trash fire (my review's in progress) into theaters, so he sent it to Netflix as part of his content creation deal with the streaming service. The 2019 Tamil film Mehandi Circus was also added to Netflix recently, even though it's been available on Amazon Prime since May (disclaimer: all my Amazon links contain an affiliate code that may earn me a commission on purchases made via the links).

In other Amazon news, it looks like the Malayalam film Jallikattu joins Prime on November 3, even though it just released in North American theaters yesterday.
If you just can't get enough Sushant Singh Rajput this weekend, Chhichhore is now available on Hotstar.

The Vishesh Films and Dharma Productions back catalogs have departed Prime, but some titles — including Kapoor & Sons — are still available for rent. Others like Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna and Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham… moved to Eros Now .
I also updated my list of Bollywood movies on Netflix with the addition of the interview special My Next Guest with David Letterman and Shah Rukh Khan. A handful of titles are set to expire in the first few days of November, including the Hindi films Mirror Game: Ab Khel Shuru and Sameer.

I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Amazon Prime with the streaming debut of Saaho. It's not available in Hindi — that version is headed to Netflix in November — but it is available in Kannada, Malayalam (standard and 4K UHD), Tamil (standard and 4K UHD), and Telugu (standard and 4K UHD).* Dozens of other Indian movies have been added in the last week, including the new Vir Das travel series Jestination Unknown and the following 2019 releases:
Brother's Day (Malayalam)
Brother's Day (Malayalam, Tamil-dubbed)
Chilappol Penkutty (Malayalam)
Khamiyaza (Hindi)
Lone Wolf (Hindi)
Mr. KK, aka "Kadaram Kondan" (Tamil, Telugu-dubbed)
Ninnu Thalachi (Telugu)
Rama Chakkani Seetha (Telugu)
Sharmaji Ki Lag Gayi (Hindi)
Thittam Poattu Thirudura Kootam (Tamil)
Make sure to scroll down the Prime page past the new additions to the Expiring Soon section, because I found many more films set to leave Prime by the end of the month since posting this list of 60 or so expiring titles.
I also updated my list of Bollywood movies on Netflix with the addition of the Netflix original Hindi film Upstarts. I added the Australian series The Unlisted to the list as well. It's about a pair of Desi twins, and the first episode takes place during their family's Diwali celebrations. Timely!

October got off to a slow start on these two streaming video services, and there's little on the horizon for the rest of the month. According to Bollywood Buff, Batla House comes to Prime in India on October 11, although that date may not apply to the United States and Canada. The only new Hindi release on the docket for Netflix is their straight-to-streaming film Upstarts, starring Bhavesh Joshi Superhero's Priyanshu Painyuli. Upstarts debuts on Netflix October 18.

In other big Amazon Prime news, looks like we have confirmation that the Yash Raj Films catalog really is leaving Prime, with a handful of movies departing in the next two weeks. Kabhi Kabhie, Salaam Namaste, and Vijay all expire on September 25, followed by Rocket Singh: Salesman of the Year on September 27. I'll post expiration dates as they appear. In the meantime, if you'd like to prioritize watching YRF movies on Prime before they migrate to their new home (probably Hotstar), here's a Wikipedia list of YRF releases.
I also updated my list of Bollywood movies on Netflix because a bunch of Indian movies are set to expire on September 15:
Aroni Takhon (2017/Bengali)
Jomonte Suvisheshangal (2017/Malayalam)
Kaththi (2014/Tamil)
Maheshinte Prathikaram (2016/Malayalam)
Masters (2012/Malayalam)

OK Kanmani (2015/Tamil, Malayalam-dubbed)
Kabir Singh comes to Netflix in India on September 19, but I haven't seen confirmation of its US availability yet, so stay tuned. In other Netflix news, Karan Johar signed a multi-year contract to produce fiction and non-fiction content exclusively for the streaming service.
