Does bombastic, hooky and energetic heavy metal force you to go crazy – in a good way?
Well then, unless you have been crawling in muddy trenches for the last two decades, you have been exposed to the the majestic firepower of history-loving metal giant Sabaton.
Since Sabaton's inception on the threshold of a new millennium, these powerful Swedes have been conquering battlefield after battlefield – of course, only those musical ones, as no-one is supposed to perish under the treads of this merry metal machine – and along the wondrous path, Sabaton has practically done and seen it all within the realms of explosive heavy metal.
A grand pile of gold and platinum – quadruple platinum in case of 2012's "Carolus Rex" – selling albums? Check! Crowd-commanding headline shows at the largest European festivals, such as Polish Woodstock in front of half a million devoted admirers? Check! High profile tours in Australia, Asia and both American continents – including victorious performances at prestigious events like Japanese Loud Park and Ozzfest USA? Check!
Despite such unforgettable accomplishments, Sabaton has never been a troop that likes to dwell in the past. For this unstoppable heavy metal panzer, there has always been just one window of opportunity: to march fearlessly towards next challenges.
- As we speak, Sabaton is reaching twentieth anniversary as a band. What would be the most appropriate way to celebrate this tremendous milestone – and set our targets on the future at the same time? Naturally, there is only one option: to unleash the ninth missile into the heart of heavy metal world. In other words, Sabaton's new album – another concept record from the vaults of fascinating military history – is completed and we couldn't be more satisfied with it, says Sabaton bassist and lyricist Pär Sundström – and continues:
- The title of our new magnum opus is "The Great War", and within its rich musical and lyrical journey, we dive into the gloomy and bloody atmosphere of World War I. This frantic war shook the whole planet during 1914-1918 and caused devastating consequences that still echo to this day. World War I was also supposed to be the war to end all the wars. Well, today, we unfortunately know little bit better...
If you are any familiar with the epic sounds of Sabaton, you know that these gents are no strangers to cheerfully diverse and catchier-than-glue style of heavy metal. Well, no need to be worried: epic-sounding "The Great War" takes everything to another level.
- The contrast between the brutality of merciless war and heroic sacrifices made by humans of many kind is reflected on seminal tracks – both on compositions and lyrics, states Sundström.
Once again, Sabaton's musical rollercoaster has been masterminded by singer and lyricist Joakim Brodén.
- Maybe needless to say, but I am pursuing each of our record to be the absolute best we've ever done. Because of this, the writing process is always immensely emotional and challenging, but also extremely rewarding ride. And time-consuming... I'm always double-checking just about everything in order to come up with the most fascinating Sabaton-manufactured heavy metal ©.
With utterly delightful "The Great War", Sabaton is able to combine two extremely important elements: here and there, the band fires it up on more familiar territories, only to storm into untouched zones during next moment.
- "The Great War" is 100% pure Sabaton album, but that being said, we're also taking the listener on a wild ride with severe twists and turns, smiles Brodén and goes on to say:
- I don't want to reveal too much, but the new longplayer kicks off with a curveball, making desired space into more distinguished, multilayered and melodically rich Sabaton metal lunacy. There are more surprises along the way and the record is finally completed by a rather special piece... Well, you just have to be patient for a little while!
If World War I was supposed to be the end (of that kind of inhuman behavior), "The Great War" is nothing like that for Sabaton: in fact, this colossal piece of art may eventually turn out to be the last piece in the puzzle leading for a total domination in the world of heavy metal.
- Sabaton's next world tour – obviously titled "The Great Tour" – begins with a number of European festival appearances, including our 20-year-anniversary headline spot on holy grounds of Wacken Open Air, tells Sundström and adds:
- After our summer shows, Sabaton will give no mercy whatsoever, as we will be visiting all possible and unreachable corners on our beloved planet. The actual touring cycle starts from North America in October and after that... Well, let's put it this way: "The Great Tour" will be lengthy and ferocious, but a gratifying one.
- With respected TimeGhost History Channel and renowned historian Indiana Neidell, we have established Sabaton History Channel, says Sundström.
- On weekly YouTube episodes, we are telling in-depth stories and details behind our songs. We already have tens of thousands of subscribers and the number is growing as we speak... Another dream accomplished!
For now, one last thing remains: what really was the band's main goal with "The Great War"?
- To build up a f***ing impressive Sabaton album that will go down in the history of harder music, states Brodén, without any hesitation.
Well, lads... Target locked, missile fired and mission completed!

China Using BRI To Achieve Its National Security Objectives: US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo
Thursday, May 09, 2019 by Indian Defence News
The BRI was launched by President Xi when he came to power in 2013
Just last month, Russia announced plans to connect the Northern Sea Route with China?s Maritime Silk Road, which would develop a new shipping channel from Asia to northern Europe.
China is using its government power through the Belt and Road Initiative to achieve its national security objective, US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo alleged Monday, asserting that the Trump administration is leading global efforts to inform countries about the "predatory" Chinese economics. The Trump administration has been extremely critical of President Xi Jinping's trillion-dollar Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) and is of the view that China's "predatory financing" is leaving smaller counties under huge debt endangering their sovereignty. "The Chinese effort to the Belt and Road activities are about using government power to achieve national security objectives," Pompeo told reporters travelling with him in Finland. Noting that the US has said all along that it has a huge economic interest in China's success and vice versa, Pompeo said the BRI needs to be transparent.
"It's got to be on a free and open basis. It can't be with the idea that you're going to loan a country money and then foreclose on that facility so that you can then build yourself a port or take that land and real estate. That's not appropriate. We have discouraged that. We have educated other countries around the world on that set of issues," he said. Where there are elements of the BRI that are truly building a bridge and it is a commercial transaction, the US welcomes China participating in those, he said. "But where we see China behaving in ways that are truly not commercial but rather designed to further gain them either access entree for national security purposes, we don't think that's what those countries are really buying," Pompeo said. The BRI was launched by President Xi when he came to power in 2013.
It aims to link Southeast Asia, Central Asia, the Gulf region, Africa and Europe with a network of land and sea routes China is doling out huge sums of money for infrastructure projects in countries from Asia to Africa and Europe, enhancing its global influence. Concerns over BRI financing became vocal after China acquired Sri Lanka's strategic Hambantota port on a 99-year lease as a debt swap in 2017 Earlier addressing the opening session of the Arctic Council in Finland, Pompeo slammed China for its BRI, which he said, tends to eat into the sovereignty of nations. "China has observer status in the Arctic Council, but that status is contingent upon its respect for the sovereign rights of Arctic states. The US wants China to meet that condition and contribute responsibly in the region. But China's words and actions raise doubts about its intentions," he said. Citing Sri Lanka and Malaysia, he warned Arctic nations to be aware of the real Chinese intentions.
"Let's just ask ourselves: Do we want Arctic nations broadly or indigenous communities specifically, to go the way of former government in Sri Lanka or Malaysia, ensnared by debt and corruption? Do we want crucial Arctic infrastructure to end up like Chinese-constructed roads in Ethiopia, crumbling and dangerous after only a few years?" he asked. "Do we want the Arctic Ocean to transform into a new South China Sea, fraught with militarisation and competing territorial claims? Do we want the fragile Arctic environment exposed to the same ecological devastation caused by China's fishing fleet in the seas off its coast, or unregulated industrial activity in its own country? I think the answers are pretty clear," the top American diplomat said. Noting that Beijing claims to be a "Near-Arctic State", he said yet the shortest distance between China and the Arctic is 900 miles. "There are only Arctic States and Non-Arctic States. No third category exists, and claiming otherwise entitles China to exactly nothing," he asserted.
"That's not to say Chinese investment is unwelcome – indeed, quite the opposite," he said. The US and Arctic nations welcome transparent Chinese investments that reflect economic interest and national security ambitions. Between 2012 and 2017, China invested in the Arctic nearly USD 90 billion. It's planning to build infrastructure from Canada, to the Northwest Territories, to Siberia. Just last month, Russia announced plans to connect the Northern Sea Route with China's Maritime Silk Road, which would develop a new shipping channel from Asia to northern Europe. Meanwhile, China is already developing shipping lanes in the Arctic Ocean, he added.
"This is part of a very familiar pattern. Beijing attempts to develop critical infrastructure using Chinese money, Chinese companies, and Chinese workers – in some cases, to establish a permanent Chinese security presence," Pompeo alleged. A Pentagon report last week, he said, warned that China could use its civilian research presence in the Arctic to strengthen its military presence, including deployment of submarines – including deployment of submarines to the region as a deterrent against nuclear attack. "We need to examine these activities closely, and we need – and we keep the experience we have learned of other nations in mind. China's pattern of aggressive behaviour elsewhere in the – excuse me – aggressive behaviour elsewhere should inform what we do and how it might treat the Arctic," Pompeo said.

For the first time in a couple of years, the Cinecultist did not spend the Oscars at home, by ourselves, live blogging. This plan had its pros and cons. Attending an Oscar party means extra tasty treats for the commercial breaks and more people to potentially throw out witty quips about the celebrities' fashion choices but also more distracting chit chat over good acceptance speeches. CC is embarrassed to admit, we even shushed one of our friends—not a proud moment. All in all it was a fun night and we're certainly glad the writer's strike was resolved in enough time to have a pretty normal telecast. Although, jeez, did there need to be that many montages? It was montagalicious up in there. We almost expected to see a montage of the montages over the final credits, it was so self-congratulatory.
Favorite moments from the three plus hour show for Cinecultist included Tilda Swinton's crack about George Clooney wearing the nippled bat suit on the set of Michael Clayton, Jon Stewart's reintroduction of Marketa Irglova so she could give her acceptance speech for best song, and James McAvoy subtle flirting with Josh Brolin during one of the scripted introductions. We saw that look between them! A new bro-mance is born!
As for the official Cinecultist Oscar Pool, our winner is Martin X, who got 15 our of the 24 categories correct. Well done, Martin! Please email CC your info and whether you'd like a drink or some random DVDs from the Cinecultist vault as your prize. Thanks to everyone who entered, we all got a few at least. More than half of us predicted best picture, and there were lots of accurate best actor, best director(s) and best supporting actor votes. Yet only two people thought Marion Cotillard would take home best actress and one lone voice was rooting for Tilda. Also no one accurately chose the Best Documentary Feature, Taxi to the Dark Side. It's currently in theaters now, so as penance we should all go see it. The best foreign language winner The Counterfeiters is also playing now in New York and Los Angeles. It looks intriguing, as does that entry from Kazakhstan Mongol. Cinecultist totally didn't know Kazakhstan had a national cinema, that's awesome. Mongol comes out in June and stars the wonderful Japanese actor Tadanobu Asano as Genghis, so it's definitely on our To See list.
Cinecultist has said it for a long time, Josh Horowitz is like the coolest person we've ever met. And he doesn't even have to try. Now thanks to the magic of editing in the above MTV.com clip, little pregnant Juno tells him so too. Though, Josh on Ellen Page is a little harsh: "She's like Abigail Breslin with the mouth of Dennis Miller." Ha.
Man, we miss working with this guy. He puts the fun back into movie fanaticism.
* No more complaining about not being able to see all the top films of the year. At AMC movie theaters around the country on Feb. 23, watch all five of the best picture Academy Award nominees back to back for only $30. Your pass allows you to come and go, plus you get free popcorn all day. It's time for a movie binge, baby.
* Reading alert: Mike Russell from CulturePulp interviewed graphic novelist/filmmaker Marjane Satrapi and then drew it. The medium and the subject, both super cool.
* Last night, Cinecultist caught the pre-backlash-to-the-backlash, record release performance of Vampire Weekend at Bowery Ballroom. We trotted out our snarkiest remarks and our most cutting observations about the super enthusiastic 16+ crowd, but the fact of the matter is this young foursome plays a catchy, danceable tune. The nostalgia for Paul Simon's Graceland pulled strong on our heart strings and their earnest rocking made us want to cut class and lay out on the grass on the Quad. Expect to see VW freakin' everywhere really soon.
Matthew Baldwin over at the excellent blog Defective Yeti has created an Academy Awards ballot function and we've set up an official Cinecultist Oscar Pool. Log in*, pick your favorites (at random if you like, sometimes these awards are total crap shoots) and then they'll be emailed to CC. After the awards are announced, we'll tabulate the winner. It'll be fun! Yay, betting! And as a further incentive the top dog will get a mailing of random DVDs from the Cinecultist's collection or a congratulatory drink, whichever you prefer. Plus bragging rights, of course.
The Oscars will air, in some form or another, on February 24 at 5 pm PST. If you need some more professional handicapping, you can check out EW's coverage.
If the above DY link doesn't work, you can search for our pool under #4042.
With only an hour and a half to go until the 79th annual Academy Awards get under way, (be sure to check out our liveblogging with fellows Gothamists Jen Chung and Margaret Harper) the Cinecultist looked over the nominees and offers up our predictions in the major categories. How cloudy is the crystal ball this year? Only time and the envelopes will tell but CC has a good feeling about our ability to peer into the minds of the tried and true Oscar voters.
Could it be anyone besides Jennifer Hudson?
No, it couldn't. And she lost it at the podium thanking her grandmother and God.
Two months ago CC would've said Eddie Murphy was the shoo-in but now with the Norbet factor, we're going to go Mark Wahlberg.
And it goes to the old guy, Alan Arkin.
Pan's Labyrinth seems to have the traction.
Wow, totally suprised that the Academy liked The Lives of Others best, though CC thought it was great too.
We loved Monster House but we bet Oscar will prefer Cars.
Totally wrong on this one, they loved Happy Feet.
How we wish it could be Children of Men but we're going to go with The Departed.
Could it be anything besides The Queen?
Oy, it's Little Miss Sunshine written by Matthew Broderick's former assistant.
Here's the moment where Al Gore announces his candidacy in '08 as he clutches the statue for An Inconvenient Truth in his hot little hand.
No surprise "my fellow Americans," it's Truth for the win.
Gawd, CC loves Helen Mirren, as will Oscar, even though she's won every other award she's been nominated for this season.
Right again and lovely Helen brings her purse up to the stage to accept her statue.
Forest Whitaker because he's too scary not to get it.
Hooray for Forest, he really deserves it.
Everyone agrees that this will be Marty's year for The Departed.
And it is. Who's cuter than Martin Scorsese? Nobody.
It's all about Babel baby.
Wow, at this point [12:15 freakin' a.m.!] we're almost too tired to care that it went to The Departed instead.
Whew, swami Cinecultist is tired now. We're popping out now to stock up on some extra diet Coke and conciliatory/celebratory frozen yogurt for after the telecast. We'll be updating this post as the results come in.

Mima, Keith, Russell, Shilloh and Roslyn are members of the Yalata community where many of the artworks included in this special issue originated. Yalata is an Anangu community on the far west coast of South Australia, 1000 kilometres from Adelaide by road. Around 300 people live in the township -- primarily Pitjantjatjara Anangu who descended from the desert people in the north and north-west of SA. The families were displaced from the Maralinga Tjarutja lands and from Ooldea prior to the British atomic bomb tests that took place at Emu and Maralinga in the 1950s. Jeremy LeBois is Chair of the Maralinga Tjarutja Council and Maralinga is his ancestral land. Johnny Lovett is from the Gunditjmara community in Western Victoria, with Pitjantjatjara family connections. The Nuclear Futures community arts projects at Yalata coincided with controversial proposals by the South Australian government to extend nuclear industry in South Australia, including proposals for new nuclear waste repositories.

How Bush was whisked to Iraq
Troops were genuinely surprised and delighted to see Bush
It looked like being another normal family Thanksgiving Day at US President George W Bush's ranch in Texas.
George Bush senior and his wife Barbara arrived there unaware that their son was soon to make a momentous visit to Iraq.
Even the White House media pool were unprepared - having already been given a menu of what the first family would be having for dinner at home in Texas.
Yet, despite the extreme secrecy, it was a trip that had been weeks in the planning.
The president himself admitted being "the biggest sceptic of all", after his chief of staff Andy Card first raised the idea of the high-risk journey in mid-October.
HOW IT WAS DONE
Bush driven to ex-military base in Waco in unmarked vehicle on Wednesday evening
boards Air Force One
lands briefly outside Washington to change planes
departs for Baghdad
press ordered to hand over electronic devices
British Airways pilot almost derails secret plan
final check with secret service three hours before landing
lands in Baghdad Thursday evening
driven in motorcade to dinner with troops
spends two hours celebrating Thanksgiving Day
flies back to US
news "breaks" only after plane leaves Baghdad
Mr Bush wanted to make certain that it could be done safely, and was also worried in case his Baghdad blitz would "jeopardise somebody else's life".
"I had a lot of questions," the president recounted later.
The president said he and Mr Card used code words when planning the trip, about which only a handful of aides knew in advance.
Although First Lady Laura Bush was apparently aware of the preparations, she and her daughters were only told of the final decision hours before the president left.
"It looks like we're on," the president told her on Wednesday morning.
A photographer for AFP news agency described how he was given a moment's notice to prepare to leave.
"I had been taking a nap and had just a few minutes to grab what I need and be outside the back of my hotel and not to make any calls," Tim Sloan said.
'Normal couple'
Mr Bush and National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice were driven in an unmarked car with tinted windows from the president's ranch on Wednesday night, past secret service agents who did not know he was going.
Mr Bush helped serve a traditional Thanksgiving meal
Both wore baseball caps, pulled low over their eyes.
As he made the 45-minute ride from the ranch to the airport, Mr Bush apparently joked about encountering traffic for the first time - normally his motorcade speeds through red lights.
Before arriving at the airfield at a former military base in Waco, Texas, he slouched down to avoid being recognised by guards.
"We looked liked a normal couple," the president said later.
He boarded Air Force One at 2025 local time (0125 GMT) with a small number of press.
The departure of the presidential plane was explained by the ruse that it needed maintenance at Andrews Air Force Base outside Washington.
The group landed briefly at Andrews at around midnight to change planes and pick up some aides and press. The switch took place in a huge hangar, away from prying eyes.
'No calls, got it?'
Before the take-off, Mr Bush ordered the pool of five reporters, photographers, a television producer and a two-person camera crew not to break telephone silence.
"No calls, got it?" he said, emphasising the point by slashing his hand in front of his throat.
While on the flight, the were asked to hand over their mobile phones, pagers, batteries and other electronic devices.
They were told that if news of the visit leaked out then the plane would turn around and head home.
"I was fully prepared to turn this baby around, come home," Mr Bush said.
'Ghost' plane
The closest that came to happening was when a pilot flying a passing British Airways passenger jet radioed the president's aircraft to ask if it was Air Force One he had just seen.
Once assured by Air Force One pilot Colonel Mark Tillman that it was not, the president's extraordinary journey to Baghdad continued.
Three hours before the scheduled landing in Baghdad, Mr Bush again checked with the secret service to see if the secret was intact.
White House communications director Dan Bartlett warned journalists the plane would be landing - in the dark - with its lights dimmed.
"It is absolutely critical, when we land, that you do not open your window [blinds]," he told the press pool.
"Particularly as we land and when we're on the ground, we want no light emanating from the plane. We will not be pulling up to a terminal. We will be stopping at the end of the runway."
On the approach to Baghdad, the president went into the cockpit and watched Colonel Tillman bring the plane down.
Mr Bush said that if security had been breached the plane would have been most vulnerable at this moment, despite being equipped with hi-tech devices to ward off missiles.
Well-timed
Mr Bartlett confirmed that staff on the ground at Baghdad International Airport had no idea that Air Force One was about to arrive.
The president landed at 1732 local time (1432 GMT) and was put in a white jeep - in a motorcade of 13 vehicles, including a military ambulance - for the five-minute journey to the back of the Bob Hope Dining Facility.
More than 600 troops thought the dinner was with US administrator Paul Bremer and Lieutenant General Ricardo Sanchez, head of the coalition forces in Iraq.
Correspondents say the soldiers were genuinely surprised and delighted when their commander-in-chief walked in, and welcomed him with deafening cheers and applause.
News only broke of the visit once the president was safely on his way back on Air Force One.
The BBC's David Bamford in Washington said news of the visit was perfectly timed for maximum impact in the US.
The story broke in the late morning on the east coast, just as Americans were preparing their Thanksgiving dinners.
The BBC's Peter Greste
"It was a very swift, clandestine visit"

A real eye-catcher are these arm warmers in jacquard pattern! The luxury arm wrislet are knitted from the soft REGIA PREMIUM Silk yarn, which is not only pleasant on the skin, it is also temperature balancing. The pattern and the beautiful colors, which bring a slight mélange look, make the hand warmers become a real must-have accessory. You can knit two or three pairs of these pretty hand wristlet from one ball of each of the three colors, or you can make the even the matching socks with them.


The Mitre Tavern is a busy weeknight haunt of CBD professionals to unwind with a drink after a day of work. The pub section is incredibly noisy and busy, but thankfully the upstairs restaurant is magically insulated to the point that only the occasional strains of high-pitched laughter are able to float through the window.
The decor is tasteful and classy, and obviously tailored towards businessmen. The service was friendly, if a little too eager; after they asked us whether we had chosen from our menus for the third time in 5 minutes they seem to have realised we were a pretty indecisive bunch when it comes to what to eat and drink. It doesn't help that the wine list is very extensive, and at times, very expensive. The menu has of course a very large selection of steaks, but also features typical pub fare such as pasta and chicken parmigiana with a sophisticated twist (with a price point that matches).
It's been quite a while since I've had dinner at a steakhouse, with my last visit to James Squire Steakhouse in Docklands sometime late last year. I have a habit of not ordering steak, not because I don't like steak which I do in-fact have beautiful culinary dreams about, but because something else always catches my eye.
In this case, it was the Fish of the Day Special - Blue Grenadier, with Field Grown Mushrooms and Blood Sausage. Blood sausage on the menu always makes me curious because I love all the different dishes you can serve it with being both interesting and subtle.
The fish was delicate and tender, but I would have preferred some more crispiness in the skin. The blood pudding was delicious as expected, and the green beans cooked just enough to be crunchy yet fresh. What really surprised me were how juicy and satisfying the mushrooms were. This meant that I was satisfied by the dish, yet didn't feel the slightest bit weighed down.
The only other non-steak order on the table was by the some-time vegetarian. The range of vegetarian options is pretty disappointing, and the only dish he could really order was the Pan fried Gnocchi Avocado, walnut and basil, garnished with white truffle oil.
Thankfully, he was pretty satisfied with this rich dish and polished it off quickly. I'm not sure what the green things on top were (seaweed perhaps?) but they were a decent attempt by the chef to dress-up an otherwise plain dish.
The other orders were all steak. I only have a picture of the 450g steak ordered, but I can't remember which type it was exactly (Gippsland Fresh 5 Star/Black Angus/Butler's Steak).
There were a couple of orders for the 200g Gippsland Fresh 5 Star Fillet. Overall the steaks were deemed suitable being tender, juicy and full of flavour, but B's search for the best steakhouse in the city still continues. If anyone has any recommendations, I'd be happy to pass them on with thanks.
A few sides of crunchy steak fries with truffle salt and sauteed button mushrooms completed our satisfying meal.
Overall we had a great experience with decent food (even if it was a little pricey), good service and enjoyable surrounds. It was the atmosphere of the place that will tempt us to return - we were there for 2.5 hours just chatting and they seemed happy enough to indulge us. By the time we left, the restaurant had gotten quite lively and we were in good spirits. It'll be a while before I brave the crowds downstairs though.
The Mitre Tavern is a pretty iconic Melbourne pub but to be honest I had never even considered eating there - good to hear you can. I think it is up for sale at the moment so will be interesting to see what happens once it gets new owners.
It really is a pretty decent restaurant. As far as I know, the sale isn't affecting operations (Mitre Tavern currently leases the building I think). Still, change can be a good thing.
I could sure go for a juicy succulent steak right now!

Prior to the arrival of Europeans, the area had long been inhabited by Native American groups. At the time of European contact, the principal Native American groups in the region were the Dakota (Sioux) and Ojibwe (also called Anishinabe or Chippewa). The economy of these groups was based on hunting, fishing and gathering, with wild rice being of particular importance. The first Europeans to explore the area were the French in the late 17th century[4] who were followed by trappers, fur traders, missionaries, and explorers.
The Wisconsin Territory was established by the Federal Government effective 3 July 1836, and existed until its eastern portion was granted statehood (as Wisconsin) in 1848. Therefore, the Federal Government set up the Minnesota Territory effective 3 March 1849. The newly organized territorial legislature created nine counties across the territory in October of that year. One of those original counties, Itasca, had its eastern section partitioned off on 20 February 1855 into two new counties: the western part was designated Newton and the eastern part was named Superior County. The territorial legislature returned to the matter on 3 March, changing Superior County to Saint Louis County. Then on 1 March 1856, the county name was again changed, to Lake County, and the "Saint Louis County" name was given to the previous Newton County. With the new name came the designation of county seat at Beaver Bay, which had first been platted in 1856. The county's boundaries were altered in 1874, when its eastern part was partitioned off to create Cook County.
In 1868, iron ore was discovered on the Vermilion Range by George Stuntz. A spur of the Duluth and Iron Range Railroad was extended to the Lake Superior shore, and a settlement quickly sprang up at the terminus. This settlement was incorporated as a village (Two Harbors) on 9 March 1888, and that same year a vote was taken to transfer the county seat from Beaver Bay to Two Harbors (1888).[5]
Commercial fishing on Lake Superior became important during the late 1880s, spurred by the arrival of Swedish and Norwegian immigrants to the North Shore. In 1890, the Merritt brothers discovered the Mesabi Range. The Two Harbors Lighthouse was built on Agate Bay in 1892. Ten years later, five Two Harbors businessmen signed the articles of incorporation for a new mining company named 3M. Today, 3M Corporation has over 70,000 employees worldwide and produces more than 50,000 adhesive household products, now has its headquarters in Saint Paul.
In 1906, the Court House, which stands to this day, was built. In 1907, one of the nation's first steel ore docks was built in Two Harbors. In 1944, one of the first HMOs in the United States was created in Lake County to serve railroad employees. A second iron ore boom took place in the 1950s with the development of the taconite beneficiation process for turning lean, low-grade iron ore into a shippable product.
Lake County lies on the north side of Minnesota. Its north border abuts the south border of the province of Ontario, Canada, and its south border is formed by Lake Superior. Its terrain consists of rolling mountains and hills, heavily wooded, and dotted with lakes and ponds.[6] The terrain slopes both ways from a crestline that runs from its northeast line to its southwest line; the county's highest point is Stony Tower Hill[6] at 2,301' ASL.[7] The county has a total area of 2,991 square miles (7,750 km2), of which 2,109 square miles (5,460 km2) is land and 881 square miles (2,280 km2) (29%) is water.[8] It is the fifth-largest county in Minnesota by area.
Lake County is located in the Arrowhead Region of Northeastern Minnesota.

Age pyramid of county residents based on 2000 census data
As of the 2000 United States Census, there were 11,058 people, 4,646 households, and 3,140 families in the county. The population density was 5.24/sqmi (2.02/km2). There were 6,840 housing units at an average density of 3.24/sqmi (1.25/km2). The racial makeup of the county was 97.99% White, 0.10% Black or African American, 0.70% Native American, 0.18% Asian, 0.01% Pacific Islander, 0.14% from other races, and 0.88% from two or more races. 0.57% of the population were Hispanic or Latino of any race. 22.3% were of Norwegian, 17.8% German, 14.3% Swedish, 8.4% Finnish, 6.3% Irish and 5.4% English ancestry.
There were 4,646 households, out of which 27.10% had children under the age of 18 living with them, 57.80% were married couples living together, 6.60% had a female householder with no husband present, and 32.40% were non-families. 28.00% of all households were made up of individuals, and 12.70% had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older. The average household size was 2.32 and the average family size was 2.83.
The county population contained 22.30% under the age of 18, 6.60% from 18 to 24, 24.50% from 25 to 44, 26.70% from 45 to 64, and 20.00% who were 65 years of age or older. The median age was 43 years. For every 100 females there were 99.70 males. For every 100 females age 18 and over, there were 99.60 males.
The median income for a household in the county was $40,402, and the median income for a family was $46,980. Males had a median income of $39,719 versus $26,500 for females. The per capita income for the county was $19,761. About 5.50% of families and 7.40% of the population were below the poverty line, including 9.40% of those under age 18 and 5.70% of those age 65 or over.
Lake County has a historic Democratic/Labor lean. It was the top county for Socialist Party of America candidate Eugene V. Debs in 1908,[14] 1912,[15] and 1920.[16] The last Republican to carry the county was Herbert Hoover's failed run for re-election in 1932,[17] although in the 1932 election Socialist Norman Thomas received 19.32% of the county's vote, one of the highest percentages in the country.[18] Ironically, Lake County was the only county in Minnesota to vote for Hoover in 1932. In 2016, Lake County was the whitest county in the entire country to vote for Democrat Hillary Clinton over Republican Donald Trump.[19] Trump, however, got the highest percentage of the vote of any Republican since 1928.

European Union Expands Punishing Sanctions on Iran
Le 15 octobre 2012 par admindans Article
October 15, 2012 – New York – AJ C called the latest round of European Union sanctions against Iran "a necessary step in the global effort to stop the Iranian regime's steady march towards building the capacity to produce nuclear weapons."
The 27-member state EU adopted today additional sanctions that step up the already punishing measures against Iran's banking and energy sectors. The EU reiterated its "serious and deepening concerns over Iran's nuclear program and the urgent need for Iran to comply with all its international obligations."
Iran has defiantly ignored UN Security Council and International Atomic Energy Agency resolutions, and effectively blocked any possible progress in three rounds of negotiations this year with the P5+1group – Britain, China, France, Germany, Russia, and the U.S.
"The EU, by its actions today, has told not only the Iranian regime, but the world, that Iran will pay an ever higher price for disregarding UN calls to suspend uranium enrichment," said AJC Executive Director David Harris, who last week met with top government officials in Spain and Portugal, two EU member states.
In Madrid and Lisbon, and in 70 individual meetings with heads of state and foreign ministers in New York last month for the UN General Assembly, concerns about Iran's nuclear program topped the agenda. "The Iranian nuclear threat is viewed broadly across the Middle East and around the world as the most serious current danger to regional and global security," said Harris.
Growing distrust of Iran's nuclear intentions has moved the EU, as well as the U.S., to regularly increase and expand the sanctions against Iran. Among the series of measures adopted today is a prohibition on transactions between European and Iranian banks "to ensure that EU financial institutions do not process funds that could contribute to Iran's nuclear program or to the development of ballistic missiles."
The new EU measures also ban the import of natural gas, and prohibit the export to Iran of graphite, aluminium, steel and other materials relevant to the Iranian nuclear and ballistic programs or to industries controlled by the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps. And, in a further step to curb Iran's oil exports, ships belonging to EU citizens and companies will no longer be available for transporting or storing Iranian oil and petrochemical products.
In July the EU suspended importing oil from Iran and earlier this year stopped dealings with Iran's Central Bank. All of the EU steps regarding Iran are in tandem with sanctions imposed by the United States.

A Reporter in Poland
AND THERE WAS LIGHT II - SEPTEMBER-OCTOBER, 1981
By Lawrence Weschler
The New Yorker, November 16, 1981 P. 188
REPORTER IN POLAND, about the writer's return to that country in early September, for the First National Congress of Solidarity Delegates, in Gdansk. The Congress had two sessions, one six days long, beginning September 5th, and on twelve days long, starting September 26th. Writer describes conditions in Poland: shortages of all basic commodities but fruits and vegetables, inflation which is outrunning high wage increases, rationing, black marketeering, public discontent. A deadlock situation seems to existNlack of productivity because of a lack of worker incentives; a lack of incentives because of a lack of available commodities; a lack of commodities because of a lack of capital; a lack of capital because of a lack of productivity. Solidarity, the year-old union that represents ten million Polish workers, wants to institute a policy of samorzadNworker self-management. Currently, management openings are filled on the basis of nomenklatura, an elaborate system whereby the Communist Party exercises the right to appoint the country's top hundred thousand bureaucrats and administrators. The Solidarity Congress met in an atmosphere of apprehension of a Russian invasion. It is part of a sense of doom that seems to pervade the whole country. A letter sent by the Congress to the workers of the Soviet bloc, encouraging them to form trade unions, met with hostile official response throughout the bloc. Writer talks about Lech Walesa, head of Solidarity's national co rdinating committeeNhis background, his position as leader of the union, his tenuous hold on power. Each time he faces a challenge from within, he wins, but seems to be sapped of some of his prestige. He and some of the union's other leaders made an agreement with the government regarding worker self-management. In it the Party retained the right to appoint managers in certain strategic industries. Many union members don't like the speed with which the agreement was made.

We introduce a novel CMOS device architecture capable of building complementary logic operation using only a single gate stack. The new architecture, named complementary orthogonal stacked MOS (COSMOS), places the n and p-MOSFETs perpendicular to one another under a single gate, integrating them vertically as well as laterally. The COSMOS architecture would not only mean significant savings in active device area of a conventional static CMOS pair, but also significant reductions in RC device parasitics. We demonstrate how the device may be built, operated and optimized for symmetric operation, as well as verifying logic NOT operation via 3D device simulations. COSMOS architecture appears to have peculiar scaling trends such as increasing threshold at reduced gate dimensions. The increase in drive voltages lead to faster operation at the expense of higher static leakage and loss of noise margins.

When I go out to the grocery store, mall, or any place where large groups of people congregate, I like to observe how they act.
There are a lot of guys who slouch, slump, or generally create an impression of being beaten down by life.
Myself, I make a point to sit up straight, walk as tall as I can, and hold my body in a powerful manner. You can't imagine the difference this makes in my personality and how people react to me.
As a potential Don Juan, you should come across as a powerful, vibrant man. The perfect example of the Alpha-Male. Slouching in your chair, or walking with your shoulders slumped over does not create the image of a powerful man.
Even if you are not yet brimming with confidence, simply holding your body in a strong position will give others the impression that you are confident about yourself, and they will treat you as such.
This is a relatively easy way to fake a little confidence, and get the ball rolling on your way to greatness!

Study: Password Security Improves with AgePrevious article
Researchers Find Methods for Bypassing Google's Bouncer Android SecurityNext article
Flame Malware Uses Forged Microsoft Certificate to Validate Components
Microsoft has found that some components of the Flame malware were signed using a forged digital certificate that the attackers were able to create by exploiting a weakness in the way that Microsoft's Terminal Services allows customers to sign code with Microsoft certificates. The company has sent out an update that will remove three untrusted certificates from the Microsoft Trusted Certificate Store and has made a change to the way Terminal Services handles code signing.
Flame, which was discovered last week and has been used in a series of targeted attacks against organizations in Syria, Iran and other Middle Eastern countries, has one of its important components–the updater–signed by certificates that were created by the attackers using the vulnerability in Terminal Services. The way that it worked is that when Terminal Services is installed in an environment, it gives customers the ability to authorize the use of Remote Desktop Services on certain machines. During that process, the server will issue certificates to prove that the code comes from Microsoft. The attackers discovered that those certificates also could be used to sign code, and used them to sign the components of Flame.
Researchers have found that one component was signed in December 2010.
"We have discovered through our analysis that some components of the malware have been signed by certificates that allow software to appear as if it was produced by Microsoft. We identified that an older cryptography algorithm could be exploited and then be used to sign code as if it originated from Microsoft. Specifically, our Terminal Server Licensing Service, which allowed customers to authorize Remote Desktop services in their enterprise, used that older algorithm and provided certificates with the ability to sign code, thus permitting code to be signed as if it came from Microsoft," Microsoft's Mike Reavey wrote in an analysis of the problem.
The attackers behind Flame used this vulnerability in order to sign, and therefore legitimize, certain pieces of the attack tool. This is an embarrassing incident for Microsoft, and the company pushed out an emergency update for the issue on Sunday.
"Components of the Flame malware were signed with a certificate that chained up to the Microsoft Enforced Licensing Intermediate PCA certificate authority, and ultimately, to the Microsoft Root Authority. This code-signing certificate came by way of the Terminal Server Licensing Service that we operate to issue certificates to customers for ancillary PKI-based functions in their enterprise. Such a certificate could (without this update being applied) also allow attackers to sign code that validates as having been produced by Microsoft," Jonathan Ness from the Microsoft Security Response Center Engineering team, wrote.
The use of forged or stolen certificates to sign malware is a trick that's been used for some time now, most notably in both Stuxnet and Duqu, which are seen as the forerunners of Flame. The tactic enables the attacker to get browsers and other applications to trust the signed components of the malware, allowing them to run unimpeded on infected machines.
In the case of Flame, the attackers used a certificate issued by Microsoft to sign the updater for the malware, and researchers say that the component was signed on Dec. 28. 2010. That's about 18 monhts before the Flame malware was discovered and the stolen certificate uncovered.

Robert Lanza
Robert Lanza was named one of the 100 most influential people by TIME Magazine in 2014. He is a world renowned scientist from Boston, Massachusetts focusing on research areas such as stem cells and regenerative medicine. In this field, he hopes to provide therapies for some of the deadliest and debilitating conditions found around the world. Robert Lanza is also well known for developing the theory of biocentrism, a theory that explains how life and consciousness are the keys to explaining the true nature of the universe.
Currently, Robert Lanza stands as Chief Scientific Officer at Ocata Therapeutics, formerly known as Advanced Cell Technology. He is also an Adjunct Professor at Wake Forest University School of Medicine.
Robert Lanza attended the University of Pennsylvania where he received both his B.A. and M.D. Lanza was also named a University Scholar as well as a Benjamin Franklin Scholar.
With over hundreds of publications and inventions, as well as over 30 scientific books, Robert Lanza is well known in the science world.
One of his most well known publications is a feature article that was published in The American Scholar in 2007 entitled "A New Theory of the Universe". In this article, Robert Lanza explains how biology should be placed above the other sciences in an attempt to solve one of nature's biggest puzzles to date: the theory of everything. This new theory of the universe became known as biocentrism.
Later in 2009, Robert Lanza published a book entitled, Biocentrism: How Life and Consciousness are the Keys to Understanding the True Nature of the Universe. In this book, Lanza further discusses his new theory of biocentrism. He explains how space and time are forms of animal sense perception rather than external physical objects.
More recently, Robert Lanza has written another book entitled Beyond Biocentrism which takes his theory of biocentrism even a step further. Beyond Biocentrism is set to be released in April of 2016. With the book, Robert Lanza and his co-author Bob Berman plan to take the reader on an intellectual thrill-ride as they reexamine everything they believed they knew about life, death, the universe, and the nature of reality itself.

Start with a 1 quart smooth Ball jar. I found these at AC Moore Crafts store or at Hardware stores.
Pack it all down in layers (if there's space I'd add more chips or M&M's if you have them).
To decorate the jars, you will need some Christmas fabric and ribbon. Cut the fabric into 6 inch squares and the ribbon into 25 inch pieces. Place the fabric on top and tie ribbons around the lid to hold it in place.
Once it's all combined, roll into balls about 1 tbsp each, leaving room for spacing, and bake on baking paper covered trays at 350 degrees F for about 10 mins. or until golden brown.
I needed 2 cookie sheets because one jar made about 26-28 cookies.
You can change the color of the M & M's and fabric and ribbon and make these for other holidays, such as Halloween ( orange and black) or Valentine's Day ( pink and red).
I can't think of a better Christmas gift idea than cookies in a jar! YUM!
What a fantastic idea, Nettie! I love this!

Garbine Muguruza has completed her coaching trial with Conchita Martinez and will return to working with Sam Sumyk, Martinez has announced.
Muguruza had brought on Martinez to help her from Doha to Miami. The pair had first worked together at Wimbledon, where Muguruza won her second Grand Slam title.
Martinez said it had been "great to work" with Muguruza, but the world No. 3 had decided to "go back to working with her full[-]time coach" following their collaboration.
I want to share the news that my collaboration with Garbiñe has finished after Miami. She has decided to go back working full time with her coach. Like always it was great to work these past tournaments with her. I wish her and the rest of the team the best for the rest of year.
Muguruza reached the Doha final and the semifinals of Dubai with the Spanish Grand Slam champion by her side. The pair was rejoined by Sumyk starting at Indian Wells, where Muguruza fell in the opening round and then reached the fourth round at Miami.
Muguruza is playing next week's WTA event at Monterrey.

Q: Availability of Woocommerce Session after checkout? I'm currently using a Woocommerce session to save information that the user inputs on the cart page which affects a fee added to the transaction.
I need to be able to access this information right after the order has been completed to make necessary updates to the user's account.
I figured woocommerce_thankyou would be a good hook to use, but unfortunately the session only seems to be available half of the time.
Are there any better hooks to use where I could confirm that the purchase had been completed and the session information would be available?

A: You need to save that session data as custom order meta data, to be able to use it afterwards (replace my_key, in the code below, with the correct session key):
// Add custom order meta data with temporary data from WC_Session
add_action( 'woocommerce_checkout_create_order', 'add_session_data_as_custom_order_meta_data', 10, 2 );
function add_session_data_as_custom_order_meta_data( $order, $data ) {
    if ( $session_data = WC()->session->get('my_key') ) {
         $order->update_meta_data( '_session_data', $session_data );
    }
}

Code goes on function.php file of your active child theme (or theme). Tested and works.

Then to access the data you will use th WC_Data method get_meta() on the WC_Order Object:
$session_data = $order->get_meta('_session_data');

Or also using get_post_meta() function from a defined order Id:
$session_data = get_post_meta( $order_id, '_session_data', true );

Automakers ask Supreme Court to take up E15 case
Source: Amanda Peterka, E&E reporter • Posted: Wednesday, March 27, 2013
Automakers and small-engine manufacturers are asking the Supreme Court to take a case challenging U.S. EPA's decision expanding the amount of ethanol allowed in gasoline.
In a 298-page petition, the trade groups argue that the U.S. Appeals Court for the District of Columbia inaccurately ruled that automakers and small-engine manufacturers didn't have legal standing to protest EPA's approval of E15, or gasoline containing 15 percent ethanol.
They are asking the high court to decide on standing, which hinges on whether they've suffered some sort of injury from EPA's action, and on whether they have the ability to challenge the decision even if E15 use is voluntary.
Included in the writ of certiorari filed yesterday and announced today are the Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers, Association of Global Automakers, Outdoor Power Equipment Institute and National Marine Manufacturers Association.
"We feel strongly that this challenge to the E15 partial waiver needs to be considered on its merits, and not held back on a procedural issue," Kris Kiser, president and CEO of the Outdoor Power Equipment Institute, said in a statement announcing the petition. OPEI represents manufacturers of lawn mowers, snowmobiles and similar small vehicles.
The groups were among several auto, oil, livestock and food organizations that last year challenged EPA's approval of E15 for use in cars with model years 2001 or newer. In court arguments, they cited testing that showed E15 would damage car engines and potentially void the warranties of many cars on the road.
Gasoline containing 10 percent ethanol, or E10, is the standard used on the road today. EPA's approval of E15 through the use of partial waivers of the Clean Air Act represented the first time the agency has approved a fuel for use in some cars and not others, and the organizations argued that the agency went beyond the scope of the law in doing so. Small-engine manufacturers said they worried about rampant misfueling by vehicles not approved for its use.
Ethanol trade group Growth Energy intervened on behalf of EPA. Last August, the three-judge appeals panel tossed the suit on the issue of standing (Greenwire, Aug. 17, 2012). The court later denied a petition by the groups to hear the case en banc.
"Standing is not self-evident for any of the entities petitioners represent," Chief Judge David Sentelle wrote in his opinion. "EPA's waiver decisions do not on their face directly impose regulatory restrictions, costs or other burdens on any of these types of entities."
Judge Brett Kavanaugh dissented, arguing that all the groups presented adequate arguments to establish standing and that EPA overstepped its statutory authority by issuing a partial waiver.
In their petition to the Supreme Court, the engine groups argue that the appeals court ignored evidence that showed "consequential harm" and costs stemming from the introduction of E15.
"Because the majority of vehicles for which EPA has approved E15 were not designed to run on that fuel, E15's increased combustion temperatures and corrosive effects on engine parts will shorten the useful life of most vehicles, including [model year] 2001 and newer vehicles," the petition says.
The groups have also asked the Supreme Court to rule on whether an optional regulatory requirement could be treated as mandatory. They argue that, while EPA didn't mandate the use of E15, the renewable fuel standard effectively requires them to use it for compliance.
"We believe EPA's decision to grant partial waivers retroactively approving the sale of gasoline containing 15 percent ethanol (E15) for 2001 model year and newer passenger cars and light duty trucks is incorrect, as a matter of law, and will cause potential harm to vehicles not designed or warranted for such use," Global Automakers President and CEO Michael Stanton said in a statement today. "The D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals refused to consider any of the legal challenges to the E15 waiver on the grounds that none of the petitioners, including the automobile manufacturers, had standing to challenge EPA's actions."
The American Petroleum Institute and several livestock and food groups earlier this year filed a similar appeal with the Supreme Court (Greenwire, Feb. 21).
