Germany beat France on penalties while USA edge out China to set up last-four showdown.
Germany beat France in a penalty shootout to move into the semi-finals of the Women's World Cup wher they will take on USA.
The two-time winners triumphed 5-4 in the shootout after Claire Levogez, chosen as the fifth kicker for France, saw her low shot saved by goal-keeper Nadine Angerer.
Louisa Necib had put France ahead in the 64th minute but Germany equalised in the 84th when Celia Sasic converted a penalty after Amel Majri handled inside the box.
In the late quarter-final, the US shrugged off the suspension of two key players to beat China 1-0.
The Americans wasted a host of chances against a young, defensively minded Chinese side and had to wait until the 51st minute to take the lead through a fine header by captain Carli Lloyd.
The United States started without suspended first-choice midfielders Lauren Holiday and Megan Rapinoe but had little trouble maintaining their record of reaching the semi-final of every World Cup.
The United States have won the World Cup twice, most recently in 1999 when they beat China on penalty kicks. They lost in the 2011 final to Japan.
The clash between the top-ranked Germans and a French team placed third in the world was expected to be a memorable encounter and it more than lived up to the billing.
France dominated large sections of play in the first half, with some flowing attacking football that produced several good openings.
They looked to be on their way into the last four but with six minutes of normal time remaining, Leonie Majer drove a cross into the box which struck Majri, who had stretched out her arm, and Sasic confidently slotted home her sixth goal of the tournament.
Both teams tired in extra-time and there were few chances created.
The Germans scored all five of their spot-kicks before goal-keeper Angerer got down well to keep out Lavogez's attempt.


Following three defeats on the spin, West Bromwich Albion are sitting bottom of the Premier League – seven points from safety. And the view from our trading floor is that the Baggies are well-and-truly doomed.
Alan Pardew's men are 4/11 to slip back to the Championship, after eight unbroken years in the top flight. But they're not the only side currently odds-on for relegation.
Stoke City are now 4/5 to lose their Prem status, following just one win in their past eight games. Huddersfield Town are also 5/6 for the drop – though Sunday's victory over AFC Bournemouth will have boosted their hopes.
But in a tight Premier League table, five other sides find themselves 4/1 or shorter for relegation.
Improving Swansea City are 11/5 to see their recent good work undone. Meanwhile, Brighton & Hove Albion are 13/5 and the Seagulls' rivals Crystal Palace 3/1 for the drop.
Newcastle United and Southampton are each available at 4/1 to be relegated this season.

Weather in Scotland in July
Is July a good time to visit Scotland?
Head for the coast for whale-watching in Scotland in July – the glorious summer month when the scenery is magnificent, there is plenty happening everywhere, and the weather is predominantly warm and sunny, particularly on the east coast. Rain can never be ruled out in Scotland though, whatever the season, but with luck and the kindness of Mother Nature, there should be a preponderance of warm, sunny days to grace your holiday.
Climate in Scotland in July
With rainfall approaching the lowest levels of the year (320mm for the month) in Scotland, long, languid sunny days should be the norm in July. A July Scotland holiday is blessed with long hours of daylight and temperatures of an average 20°C, on occasion approaching the thirsty thirties if there is a heatwave. In general, the weather is pleasant, comfortable and ideal for sightseeing or walking.
What's on in Scotland in July
July is the month which sees the testing of many a kilted local in traditional Highland Games contests across Scotland. It's also a time for cycling, walking and horse-riding to discover the great outdoors. For those who are hip and happening, July is the month for Scotland's top music festival, T In the Park, at Balado, Kinross-shire. Then there is the Hebridean Celtic Festival, Glasgow's River Festival, the Inverness Tattoo, the Tarbert Seafood Festival and so much more. The best advice is to access the local website of the city/town/region you intend to visit and find out what's on.
What to pack for a holiday in Scotland in July
T-shirts and jeans are ideal, and perhaps a few skirts and pairs of shorts for particularly warm days. Always keep a jumper and waterproof poncho handy for sudden changes in the weather. You can even get away with sandals most of the time, but trainers and socks will be kindest on the feet if you are planning to do a lot of walking on a Scottish holiday in July. Sun cream, a shady hat and sunglasses are recommended to counteract the glare of the greenery, sea or loch.

What makes one like specific kinds of genre films? Horror, for eternity, will be associated with "cult" films, and the word choice seems to be for a fine reason. The category has all differing subgenres, many of which produce "cult" or midnight movies. Phantasm brings "phans" from all over the world to conventions where Don Coscarelli and company ventures to. Viewers of horror are from all walks, although the majority of the populous are loyal and dedicated fanatics. From devotees of the horror genre, to the casual watcher, these films and the emotions evoked strike specific chords internally, giving release to several bodily actions within.
Horror influences the human body's chemistry, which most other genres cannot produce on their own. What happens physically is the heart and breathing rates rise, muscles tense and one may even crack a sweat from all the stress a movie is providing. While putting oneself in what feels like a life-threatening situation, even if conscious of the fact it's not real, the physical body releases differing levels of adrenaline, endorphins, cortisol and dopamine. So, horror is kind of like getting naturally high on the fight or flight response.
All the best horror flicks induce this natural occurrence for most, although it easily transpires in young children and scaredy-cat adults. Think back on those moments when watching the most frightening of films, and try to go to that memory of first encountering the shark from Jaws, Freddy Krueger, The Exorcist or whatever terrifies people in their dreams. These encounters are most likely not forgotten and stick with a person forever. The reason is not just due to the elements of film being encountered, but the body timestamps internally as per the fight or flight response.
Some viewers like to tune into a horror film and be tormented psychologically, whether consciously doing it or not. The dark movie with an edge, for example Se7en, is not considered horror. But it is. Many would consider this a psychological thriller, which it is, but psychological horror fits the script better. Other films like Silence of the Lambs, The Terminator and Black Swan are not considered horror, according to Netflix, Amazon Prime, yadda, yadda, yadda. These movies are all on different landscapes, yet share a common thread: they were considered "mainstream" are related to the genre in one way or another.
This doesn't just occur in straight-up horror like the original Nightmare on Elm Street or Dawn of the Dead, which are two of the most popular. This also takes place in action or sci-fi themed films, Jurassic Park for example. That movie has the "crucial element," which without would make the movie a failure. From the frightening opening scene, when the raptor grabs and drags an employee into the holding cage; to the overwhelming euphoria most feel when surviving T-Rex and the raptors, and the JP theme plays over the ending credits— everyone who has seen it has survived Jurassic Park.
Horror forces people's sensations to mimic a survivor's experience on a conscious and subconscious level. The fear, dread, death and gothic undertones, which a movie like Jurassic Park contains, is not a horror movie, but an action adventure. During "adventures," many horrors come about. Indiana Jones experiences his fear of snakes in the films. In E.T. there are many encounters which embody fear, loss, longing and death, yet the movie is found in the Kid's section of Netflix.
Without the crucial element, these non-horror films would not be anywhere near as powerful as they are. It is a necessity to compose a film and have some aspect of dismay and dreadfulness involved. The physical and mental effects occurring while watching horror and non-horror both share a key component important in filmmaking. No, not conflict- horror.
Whether one loves or hates horror, they will never escape it in cinema… or real life.

Thanks, I'll Eat It Here
Lowell George
Editors' Notes Little Feat leader Lowell George had already laid down some of rock 'n' roll's finest moments (Sailin' Shoes, Dixie Chicken) by the time he recorded his only solo album. (He was also fed up with Little Feat's increasing fondness for the suddenly mainstream sound of jazz-fusion.) George's pleasing and believable voice could sell any theme, and he was a poet of the streets whose gift for spinning yarns from the darkside dovetailed perfectly with his big-as-California heart. There's some of that here, on the songs he wrote, but mostly there's lots of the New Orleans sweetness that he went for on Dixie Chicken: mixes of funk, R&B, pop and jazz. Allen Toussaint's warm "What Do You Want the Girl Do" leads things, while a funked-up yet unfussy Feat retread ("Two Trains") simply sings. George tackles Rickie Lee Jones' "Easy Money," which helped jumpstart Jones' own career. George's own "20 Million Things" and Fred Tackett's "Find a River" are such tender regrets that they sum up his troubled life, which, sadly, ended just after this album dropped.

Despite the massive amount of drug and patient data gathered, big-data analytics present significant challenges to pharma and life-sciences industries. Aggregating scattered data-sources, as well as making sense of the combined data are complicated tasks. As a result, this data have been largely under-utilized by the pharma industry. When looking at what has been done to leverage the existing User-Generated-Content (UGC) on social media and web-based channels, it's clear that a huge amount of valuable patient-centric insights are unused, and the ability to deliver personalized healthcare is diminished.
Data2Life was born to redefine drug Intelligence, by extracting the patient-voice and creating value-based insights to enable the journey to a personalized healthcare and treatment development.
Data2Life started-off by providing 'evidence-based' signal comparison of drug adverse-events, using big-data and multiple real-world-data sources. Using AI-algorithms to analyze the massive amount of healthcare data, Data2Life technology was able to put into perspective and effectively prioritize an overwhelming amount of potential signals. This has significantly shortened the average signal processing time, as well as increased the PV-analyst confidence in signal validation.
As we evolved, our ability to crawl and extract patient-centric insights from social media, also known as social-listening, became of increasing importance to pharma marketing decision-makers looking for competitive and comparative drug intelligence, and to gain further understanding of their patient population views and habits.
Pharma strategy departments are approaching Data2Life to generate patient-centric and scientific comparative insights in order to increase their ability to avoid guess-work when making decisions.
(such as: spontaneous adverse-event reported data, and User-Generated-Data (UGC) spread over a multitude of social media platforms and internet websites used by patients to describe their treatments, the outcomes and their sentiments.
At Data2Life, patient-privacy is our first commitment: we only deal with anonymized data in order to disable any patient identification. We are looking to provide reliable insights, issued by analyzing a massive amount of data, not by singular cases analysis. Finally, we rely on social media for scientific analysis by filtering-in only genuine patient-driven data, meticulously mapped to existing industry products and to medically-defined conditions.
We differentiate ourselves from other digital-health analytics companies by making "real-world-data" drug-related intelligence accessible for the first time. Data2Life's expertise relates to the ability to apply machine learning and Natural Language Processing (NLP) algorithms in order to understand and normalize textual inputs issued from a set of medical and social media sources, creating a large scientific ground of factual data-points.
The aggregated data is used to provide unique insights on critical use-cases, such as:(a) product's related outcomes, (b) treatment adherence & duration optimization, (c) patient journey and switching patterns detailed analysis, (d) products comparative analysis, (e) real-time market-penetration KPIs , (f) drug-discovery acceleration using clinical studies & scientific publications, (g) drug repurposing and opportunity scouting.
Our leadership team and advisory group includes renowned healthcare researchers and technological innovators who are blending their talents to to advance the state of health intelligence.

Q: How to get the current browser window in the renderer in Electron 14 Until now in use the following code to to get the current window from the renderer:
import {remote, BrowserWindow} from 'electron';

export function getCurrentWindow(): BrowserWindow {
    return remote.getCurrentWindow();
}

What is the new recommended way to do this, now that electron 14 has removed the remote module?

A: If you want to keep using the remote module, you'll have to now install it from here. remote was stripped out (as per this discussion) and is now maintained in a separate userland repo, because the Electron team doesn't want to encourage that pattern, and the npm page says:

⚠ Warning! This module has many subtle pitfalls. There is almost always a better way to accomplish your task than using this module. For example, ipcRenderer.invoke can serve many common use cases.

The npm page further details how to install and use the remote module.
That being said, the recommended strategy is to do all your window operations in the main process and trigger it from the renderer via calls to ipcRenderer.invoke or ipcRenderer.send.

Q: Problem of using Tikz in beamer presentation I used Tikz to draw some specific shapes on a matrix, this the MWE that I am using:
\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{tikz}
\usetikzlibrary{matrix,decorations.pathreplacing}
\pgfkeys{tikz/mymatrixenv/.style={decoration=brace,every left delimiter/.style={xshift=4pt},every right delimiter/.style={xshift=-4pt}}}
\pgfkeys{tikz/mymatrix/.style={matrix of math nodes,left delimiter=[,right delimiter={]},inner sep=1pt,row sep=0em,column sep=0em,nodes={inner sep=6pt}}}

\begin{document}

\begin{tikzpicture}[baseline=0cm,mymatrixenv]
    \matrix [mymatrix,text width=0.6em,align=center] (m)
    {
    a & b & c \\
    d & e & f \\
    g & h & i \\
    };
    \pgfmathsetmacro{\offset}{0.5mm}
    \draw [thick,blue,rounded corners=1mm] (m-1-1.west) |- (m-3-3.south) -- cycle;
    \draw [thick,red,rounded corners=1mm] (m-1-1.north) -| (m-3-3.east) -- cycle;

The 70's are regarded as one of the most interesting decades on popular music history, mainly due to its amazing amount of different sounds; the 70's saw the splendor of hard rock, funk, progressive rock, jazz fusion, etc... All of these genres had bands that managed to create classic albums, however it is pretty weird to find a band that could fit on pretty much every category and there's when we start to notice Banquet by Lucifer's Friend.
Lucifer's Friend is a german rock band founded in Hamburg in 1970, during their first three albums they showed an extremly varied style, taking influences from prog, to hard rock to jazz or even funk, however this mix of sounds resulted in rather inconsistent albums that proved the amount of talent these guys had but with some severe problems: these releases just didn't flow pretty well, sure the mix of styles was an excellent idea but it just wasn't implemented in a good way.
This was fixed in 1974's Banquet, here the band finally found the sound they were looking for on earlier LP's. The different tempos, the variants in the atmosphere, everything is done in a smooth way so the album flows just like it is supposed to. The best example of this is the opener Spanish Galleon which is also the best song in the album, Lawton's powerful vocals, the energetic horns, the fast guitar, the catchy chorus in the end or the excellent synth solo that closes the song, every moment manages to be just perfect.
Most bands that tried to mix many different styles just took the genres and threw them in a bag creating a big mess, here it is totally different, Lucifer's Friend gently takes every popular genre at the time and carefully placed it in a polished way. The drinks, the dessert, every aspect of this Banquet is arranged in an excellent way so you can have the best meal ever.
Wether it is the upbeat vocals and powerful hard rock atmosphere you can find on High Flying Lady - Goodbye or the calmed and proggy energy on Sorrow that leans more towards the ambiental side of the musical spectrum, the truth is that every member of the band manages to shine at every moment. Lawton's voice is probably the best aspect of the group: Powerful when needed and full of feelings when it is supposed to but always, always catchy as hell. He show us why he is, by far, one of the most underappreciated rock singers of the 70's. But he's not the only one with tons of talent to display, Bornhold's fast drumming, Hecht's bluesy piano or Hesslein's skills on the guitar are all excellent, accompanied by excellent orchestral instrumentation, Banquet is just a feast of good taste.
But why is it that we don't see a classic in Banquet" the answer is pretty interesting and very ironic actually: It is true that every member of the band is extremly talented, it is true they managed to create one of the very few albums that mixed totally different styles in a good way and it is also true that the LP shines on every aspect wether is the catchy or the ethereal moments, but it is in all of this where it lies the album's only real flaw: Those that listen to it looking for some good ol' rock n' roll will love moments like the catchiness of High Flying Lady - Goodbye or the mad guitar solo in Thus Spoke Oberon but will found songs like Sorrow rather boring at times thanks to its jazzy/proggy atmosphere. The opposite will happen to those that listen to this looking for serious prog-rock or jazz fusion, awesome at times but just to cheesy at others.
You can't really blame the band for this flaw though, it is pretty much inevitable when you do a fusion of totally different stuff that not everyone will enjoy it; they, however, did it in an almost perfect way so this aspect is almost unnoticeable specially for those that in the first place love all of the genres here presented on their own and that might find in here a stone cold classic.
Banquet is certainly an underrated gem in music, fresh, original and with tons of fun, it is a record that just doesn't get the attention it deserves and it is a must for every 70's fan. The band would never reach the awesomeness of Banquet ever again, different vocalists, different band names... Lucifer's Friend would later become the mess that Banquet wasn't.

As always I'd appreciate if you guys could tell me if there's any typo in here since english isn't my first language.
YES! Was counting on you for this one, Gentleman ;) Good job.
I can't remember a single note off this album. Will check later.
Good review. To my eyes, it doesn't really show that English is not your mother tongue.
Ive never heard this. Im get on it right now. Sweet review.
Yes the chorus is catchy as hell. I now recognize it. Love the brass section too. And that guitar solo a la Santana...Everything is perfect about this song.
"these releases just didn't flowed pretty well, sure the mix of styles was an excellent idea but it just wasn't implemented in a good way."
Album is reminiscent of Jesus Christ Superstar imo at some point, not necessarily in the execution, but mainly for the similar enthusiasm of both formations.
Ya right... Banquet is a contender for a 4.5 I can see. It instantly brings the good mood.
It doesn't last too long after all. Album is so uplifting, you should not count that little passage like a rejection!
So glad this now has a review! Pos'd. Excellent album. It's a blast to listen to the band's progression from their debut up to this album, and hear how they gradually shift their focus from hard rock to the more prog-fusion sound found here.

Many nonprofits don't want to take the time and energy to put together an annual report. Usually, it is because they truly don't understand the benefits of such a piece. So today, I am going to explain to you why it is important that your nonprofit puts forth an Annual Report.
First of all, think of the Annual Report as your organization's Accountability Report. This report holds you accountable to your stakeholders: donors, board members, staff, those that you serve, and to some extent the local community. A well done Annual Report not only outlines the financial situation of your organization, but it also provides an organizational update on how your nonprofit has carried out the mission for the past fiscal year.
Your Annual Report is also your Impact Report and it is the perfect opportunity to showcase how you are having a positive impact on those that you serve. You do this through storytelling, providing statistics, and through pictures. Through your Annual Report, you are allowing your stakeholders to experience your mission in action.
The best time to send out your Annual Report is after your audit and before a solicitation. Why? Because you are demonstrating transparency and stewardship. Then, when you send your solicitation, the chances of a gift will increase because of the engagement you provided them through the Report.
The key to a well crafted Annual Report, is that it illustrates how your organization carried out its mission with the help of all its stakeholders. This document should not be boring. Use illustrations and stories to help the reader see the impact they have made by supporting your organization or better yet, inspire them to continue to support the organization because your Report demonstrated that you are good stewards of the resources you have.

For many residents, a bad driving record has resulted in the loss of their previous car insurance policy. The Maryland Auto Insurance Fund (MAIF) is there for you! MAIF is available for all residents of Maryland who have a valid Maryland drivers license.
If you have been dropped or rejected by other insurance carriers, contact us for a FREE quote and get back on the road driving. MAIF now offers convenient payment plans designed to help you budget your annual premium and avoid the extra costs often associated with third party financing of your full premium. Our agents have years of experience with car insurance and understand what you need to drive legally in the state of Maryland.
Maryland Auto Insurance also offers policy options such as towing coverage to give you peace of mind when driving, especially if you have an older vehicle. Ask your agent about additional coverage options to be sure you get the policy you want that will meet your needs.
We can help you with tag and title services too!


Australia's High Court on Friday has ruled the deputy prime minister Barnaby Joyce ruled ineligible to sit in parliament because he has New Zealand citizenship.
Joyce was among the five senators ruled ineligible from sitting in Parliament, in a move that could cost the government its slender majority in Parliament.
The Australian constitution bars citizens of foreign countries from serving in parliament. Joyce claimed he wasn't aware he held New Zealand citizenship and has since renounced it.
Joyce later apologized to his electoral division for the inconvenience of a by-election that will be held at the earliest possible date, Dec. 2.
Joyce will be able to stand for re-election, having renounced the New Zealand citizenship he unknowingly inherited from his father.
The other four politicians – Fiona Nash, Malcolm Roberts, Larissa Waters and Scott Ludlam – had been elected to the Senate.
Another two politicians under scrutiny, senators Matt Canavan and Nick Xenophon, were ruled to have been validly elected.
Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull was due to leave on an overseas trip today. It is believed that Julie Bishop, the foreign minister, will now take on the role of acting prime minister.

Frank and Ernest Image #177873
Cartoonist(s): Bob Thaves Tom Thaves
Comic/Cartoon: Frank and Ernest
Image Number: 177873
Caption: F and E Real Estate. Animal buyers are very demanding. The bears want a home with a first-rate security system. They were rattled by that Goldilocks break-in. And having lights that automatically turn on and off in every room is a top priority for the sloths. This house needs some work before the sale is finalized. The mice buying it want holes punched in the walls. And this house is solid with a roof that doesn't leak and a basement that stays dry. So I promised the duck buyers we'd fix that right away.
Caption: I don't think I'm letting sunlight in when I open the curtains. I think the darkness is going out.
Caption: Ernie, you're still not being honest in the ad for the cars you're selling! Many of these were abandoned! That's why I say "driverless cars"! And lighting torched this one! Making it a type of "electric car." This was totally trashed when taken for a joyride! So I was accurate when I called it a "recreational vehicle." And the limo - It gets 5 MPG, but you say it gets over 20MPG! That's why I also say "It's a stretch"!
Caption: Classic Film Festival. The Wizard of Oz. In "The Wizard of Oz," Dorothy's house is blown far away. She must have lived in a lighthouse!
Caption: I used to swing from chandeliers. Now I move as quickly as possible from restroom to restroom.
Caption: Since my electricity was shut off I've had time to read some educational books. Knowledge might be power, but it's not the kind that turns the lights on.
Caption: Ernie is a positive, optimistic person. His only dark thought is wondering where the light switch is.
Caption: Oh-oh. I dropped my iPhone. YOu'll find it. The Apple doesn't fall far from the tree!
Caption: F.Y.I., eating a 40-watt bulb does not make you "enlightened"!
Caption: Where we were young, back in the 80s, we wore fluorescent clothing. See, I told you these guys were neon-derthals!
Caption: Henceforth including, but expressly not limited to love and honor and cherish and ... These vows are light on romance, but they're iron-clad legally!
Caption: Museum. Thomas Edison Exhibit. Edison said genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration. I'm surprised he didn't invent the air conditioner!
Caption: Ernie has a theory that stars are just holes in a vast expanse of ink.
Caption: Every year I vow to put the lights away neatly so I won't have to untangle them eleven months later, but I always end up just tossing them in a box ... I', keeping a family tradition alive.
Caption: The ranch foreman equipped her with lights. I have to work after dark now. What a night mare!
Caption: I see he switched to the energy-efficient saber.
Caption: Bank Loan Dept. Personal Business. Uh-oh, some loans have gone bad! A tennis pro defaulted and a novelist is in Chapter 7. The bed linens company folded and the scuba school went under! Are any of our loans still good? Yeah, the music streaming service is totally sound! And ironically, the lighting company is in the black!
Caption: Court rooms. The judge imposed sentences today and he went easy in the first couple cases -- the lamp store robber was given a light sentence and the judge said the guy who packed up and skipped out on his rent was only guilty of a simple "moving" violation. On the other hand, the defendant convicted of illegal downloading had the e-book thrown at him. Was the judge tough on the politician who embezzled from the statehouse building fund? Yeah, he takes "capitol" crimes very seriously!
Caption: Canine Court. Don't tell me, let me guess. You ran the red light because you're color blind, right?
Caption: I didn't even know there was a "Kiss your engine goodbye" light until it came on.


While the songs represent certain concrete points of destination, "Concierto Rumbos" is grounded in the seeking, adventurous, and unpredictable spirit of improvisation. As the artists capture the essence of different performance aesthetics inherent in each song style, they surrender to the unknown, following moment-to-moment creative impulses and taking traditional themes into a world of endless vocal and musical possibilities. Audiences discover that what the performers encounter and develop in relation to the songs is as captivating as the songs themselves. "Concierto Rumbos" promises virtuosity, spontaneity, and complexity that defy the simplicity of its intimate ensemble.
The concert premiered as Audrey Pernell's master's thesis-performance with two presentations in the Sala Isidora Zegers at Universidad de Chile in Santiago on April 11th, 2011. Linda Wise (Pantheatre and the Roy Hart International Arts Centre in France) guided the project from a distance as Audrey's thesis mentor (Antioch University); Annie Murath (Pantheatre Chile, Universidad de Chile) assisted with staging and production; and double-bassist Leonardo Araya (Premio Altazor 2013) completed the musical ensemble.
In the year following the initial performances, "Concierto Rumbos" continued to evolve in its repertoire and ensemble, most notably with the collaboration of percussionist Gustavo Pastenes (Orquesta Sinfónica de Chile). Other invited artists included: Annie Murath (voice), Gabriel Cañas (voice, staging, lighting design), Paulina de Petris (voice) and Catalina Moya (voice). "Concierto Rumbos" was performed at Sala SCD Vespucio, Sala EMS (Escuela de Música y Sonido, de la Universidad UNIACC), Universidad Adolfo Ibáñez, Café Cocteau, and the Centro Cultural de San Fernando.

Al Green was the first great soul singer of the '70s and arguably the last great Southern soul singer. With his seductive singles for Hi Records in the early '70s, Green bridged the gap between deep soul and smooth Philadelphia soul. He incorporated elements of gospel, interjecting his performances with wild moans and wails, but his records were stylish, boasting immaculate productions that rolled along with a tight beat, sexy backing vocals, and lush strings. The distinctive Hi Records sound that the vocalist and producer Willie Mitchell developed made Al Green the most popular and influential soul singer of the early '70s, influencing not only his contemporaries, but also veterans like Marvin Gaye. Green was at the peak of his popularity when he suddenly decided to join the ministry in the mid-'70s.
EXPAND FULL BIO
At first, he continued to record secular material, but by the '80s, he was concentrating solely on gospel. During the late '80s and '90s, he occasionally returned to R&B, but he remained primarily a religious performer for the rest of his career. Nevertheless, Green's classic early- '70s recordings retained their power and influence throughout the decades, setting the standard for smooth soul. Green was born in Forrest City, AR, where he formed a gospel quartet, the Green Brothers, at the age of nine. The group toured throughout the South in the mid-'50s, before the family relocated to Grand Rapids, MI. The Green Brothers continued to perform in Grand Rapids, but Al's father kicked the boy out of the group after he caught his son listening to Jackie Wilson.
At the age of 16, Al formed an R&B group, Al Green & the Creations, with several of his high-school friends. Two Creation members, Curtis Rogers and Palmer James, founded their own independent record company, Hot Line Music Journal, and had the group record for the label. By that time, the Creations had been re-named the Soul Mates. The group's first single, 'Back Up Train,' became a surprise hit, climbing to number five on the R&B charts early in 1968. The Soul Mates attempted to record another hit, but all of their subsequent singles failed to find an audience.
In 1969, Al Green met bandleader and Hi Records vice president Willie Mitchell while on tour in Midland, Texas. Impressed with Green's voice, he signed the singer to Hi Records, and began collaborating with Al on his debut album. Released in early 1970, Green's debut album, Green Is Blues, showcased the signature sound he and Mitchell devised — a sinewy, sexy groove highlighted by horn punctuations and string beds that let Green showcase his remarkable falsetto. While the album didn't spawn any hit singles, it was well-received and set the stage for the breakthrough success of his second album. Al Green Gets Next to You (1970) launched his first hit single, 'Tired of Being Alone,' which began a streak of four straight gold singles. Let's Stay Together (1972) was his first genuine hit album, climbing to number eight on the pop charts; its title track became his first number one single. I'm Still in Love With You, which followed only a few months later, was an even greater success, peaking at number four and launching the hits 'Look What You Done for Me' and 'I'm Still in Love With You.'
By the release of 1973's Call Me, Green was known as both a hitmaker and an artist, who released consistently engaging, frequently excellent, critically-acclaimed albums. His hits continued uninterrupted through the next two years, with 'Call Me,' 'Here I Am,' and 'Sha-La-La (Make Me Happy)' all becoming Top Ten gold singles. At the height of his popularity, Green's former girlfriend, Mrs. Mary Woodson, broke into his Memphis home in October 1974 and poured boiling grits on the singer as he was bathing, inflicting second-degree burns on his back, stomach, and arm; after assaulting Green, she killed herself with his gun. Green interpreted the violent incident as a sign from God that he should enter the ministry. By 1976, he had bought a church in Memphis and had become an ordained pastor of the Full Gospel Tabernacle. Though he had begun to seriously pursue religion, he had not given up singing R&B and he released three other Mitchell-produced albums — Al Green Is Love (1975), Full of Fire (1976), Have a Good Time (1976) — after the incident. However, his albums began to sound formulaic, and his sales started to slip by the end of 1976, with disco cutting heavily into his audience. In order to break free from his slump, Green stopped working with Willie Mitchell in 1977 and built his own studio, American Music, where he intended to produce his own records.
The first album he made at American Music was The Belle Album, an intimate record that was critically acclaimed but failed to win a crossover audience. Truth and Time (1978) failed to even generate a major R&B hit. During a concert in Cincinnati in 1979, Green fell off the stage and nearly injured himself seriously. Interpreting the accident as a sign from God, Green retired from performing secular music and devoted himself to preaching. Throughout the '80s, he released a series of gospel albums on Myrrh Records.
In 1982, Green appeared in the gospel musical Your Arms Too Short to Box With God with Patti Labelle. In 1985, he reunited with Willie Mitchell for He Is the Light, his first album for A&M Records. Green tentatively returned to R&B in 1988 when he sang 'Put a Little Love in Your Heart' with Annie Lennox for the Bill Murray comedy Scrooged. Four years later, he recorded his first full-fledged soul album since 1978 with the U.K.-only Don't Look Back. Al Green was inducted to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1995. That same year, he released Your Heart's in Good Hands, an urban contemporary record that represented his first secular album to be released in America since Truth and Time. Though the album received positive reviews, it failed to become a hit. Green did achieve widespread recognition eight years later with his first album for Blue Note, I Can't Stop. One and a half years later, he followed it with Everything's OK. His third Blue Note album, 2008's Lay It Down, featured an updated sound that still echoed the feel of his classic earlier soul style

Regional NBN deal
Published on February 8, 2018 | in Business/Industry
Regional businesses will receive enhanced broadband delivered over NBN Co Limited's Sky Muster satellites, under a 10-year deal signed between nbn and Speedcast, a global remote communication and IT solutions company.
The deal will see wholesale business and enterprise-grade products delivered via nbn's second satellite, using dedicated capacity to ensure residential users are not impacted. Minister for Regional Communications Bridget McKenzie said the new commercial partnership is a great step forward for drawing on and enhancing the capabilities of the next-generation satellite network.
Minister McKenzie believes the partnership is a good opportunity for improving the capabilities of next generation satellite network. "The Sky Muster service is a world-class platform that is already providing over 84,000 Australians in regional areas with faster, more reliable broadband services."
"The partnership announced today will see this service strengthened with products specifically designed for regional businesses." The deal will mean businesses in regional and remote areas benefit from the enhanced support and targeted product offerings, she said. "Regional small businesses are the lifeblood of communities across Australia and together they make our economy strong. These enterprise-grade services will enable businesses access to 21st Century communications, so they can participate fully in the digital economy and connect globally."
"There are many success stories for small businesses taking up the Sky Muster Service, like Birdsnest in Cooma. Jane Kay launched an online store in 2009 which now employs more than 100 locals in peak periods. Its annual net turnover of about $20 million after returns makes it one of the biggest businesses in town," Ms McKenzie said.
"The 2016 Regional Online Heroes Winner AgData, based in Toowoomba, was established on a family property in the 1984. AgData creates digital solutions for Aussie farmers – providing tools, data and knowledge to help business owners make more informed decisions and improve productivity. They now employ 20 staff and serve 22,000 customers."
nbn and Speedcast will collaborate on the development of the business and enterprise grade products which are expected to be available by early 2019. More information on nbn's satellite service and its product development roadmap is available on the nbn website.

Stylistics: studying literary and everyday style in English
Dan McIntyre, Hazel Price
Department of History, English, Linguistics and Music
Stylistics Research Centre
School of Music, Humanities and Media
Institute for Applied Linguistics
Stylistics refers to the linguistic study of style in language. This chapter is an introduction to stylistics that focuses particularly on how it can be used to study style in both literary and everyday language. Our discussion focuses primarily on foregrounding theory, which emerged out of the work of the Russian Formalist School of literary criticism. Foregrounding Theory predicts that the elements of a text that readers will pay attention to and imbue with particular significance are those elements that deviate from some perceived norm. In summarising the notion of foregrounding, we explain the underpinning concepts of deviation and parallelism before going on to consider experimental support for the theory. We then discuss recent work in cognitive and corpus stylistics, demonstrating how foregrounding is also at the heart of these contemporary approaches to studying style. We then deal with two particularly problematic issues for stylistics: (i) the issue of literariness, and (ii) the concept of objectivity. With regard to (i), we argue that the terms literary and non-literary stylistics are unhelpful as a result of their ambiguity. With regard to (ii), we discuss the importance of objectivity to stylistics and show how the concept has been misconstrued by non-linguistically inclined literary critics. We end with a discussion of possible future directions for stylistics, paying particular attention to the potential for stylistics to be used in the analysis of multimodal texts.

Do you have more affinity to your name in a foreign language when it starts with the same letter as your native language, or not?
@Mathewh No. It doesn't bother me one bit.
Just signed up for Netflix after cancelling my account 5+ years ago. Did I miss anything?
@jacobsw @willie Too bad it's not "en-el-lago", since then it may convey where we'd like to put said scandal subjects.

@RepMiaLove This was wrong, Mia, and hurts _far_ more than it helps.


After thoroughly perusing Kerry Altiero's new cookbook Adventures in Comfort Food, the Accidental Locavore started thinking about comfort food. While there are some foods that would be almost universal, on every list there are bound to be others that just don't appeal. For me, chicken (or any other kind of) pot pies don't even make the top 100 and there's a reason for that. When we were kids and my parents went out we would get pot pies. Not the good ones (if there are such things), the frozen kind that were three-for-a-dollar. Play-Doh like crusts, requiring a jack-hammer to open them, revealing a sludgy beige mess with the occasional pea, carrot chunk and once in a blue moon, a horribly overcooked morsel of chicken.
Frank on the other hand, puts pot pies much higher in the ranking. "If it's done well, it can be thoroughly enjoyable – a meal in itself." Also on his list, meatloaf, liver with onions and bacon, chicken, mashed potatoes, pasta – especially spaghetti and meatballs and lasagna. He thinks some form of pasta is on almost everyone's list.
Like pot pies, liver would never be on my list of comfort foods. We agree on mashed potatoes, and spaghetti and meatballs. I'd have mac and cheese right up there – actually almost anything with cheese, or potatoes, or pasta. All that really-bad-for-you white food. Toast. A good roast chicken is a great meal, but I'm not sure it's comfort food to me, but corn on the cob sure is (as are perfect tomatoes). Polenta?
As much as we love a good burger (and fries), that doesn't make the list either. Ditto pizza. Frank has a good point when he says that comfort food requires sitting down and enjoying it, however, there are lots of really memorable meals that we've sat down and enjoyed that were truly memorable but hardly comforting.
Don't you think nostalgia plays a huge roll? I'd probably put apple sauce on my list because it was something we always got when we were sick. Not Jello – too artificial, but definitely ice cream cones, especially in silly flavors like peppermint stick or loaded with what we knew as jimmies (sprinkles to the rest of you). For many people, peanut butter fits that bill, but I've baited one too many mouse traps for it to have any appeal.
Comfort food is often food our mothers cooked well. Frank's argument for liver is because it was one of the dishes his mother mastered. My mother cooked a lot of things well, but some of them, like her tiny noodle casseroles, just showed up on the plate one night too often.
And beverages definitely fall into the comfort category. Besides hot chocolate, and maybe tea, the king of the comfort food drinks has to be what their competition calls "Big Red from Atlanta" a classic Coke, really cold, in a glass bottle.
What have I forgotten, or what do you want to defend? Chocolate chip cookies? Twinkies? Post a comment and let us know your list. Enjoy!

oOh!'s digital offering gets hotter with temperature driven campaign
In an Australian first, advertising on a network of retail digital panels will be determined by the local temperature with oOh! rolling out its latest innovation to further enhance the connection between advertisers and Australian consumers.
The new digital technology allows "temperature-parting" to provide advertisers with the opportunity to dynamically change their message based on the local temperature at each location.
The first advertiser to implement "temperature-parting", Unilever, is promoting its Magnum and Lipton Iced Tea products to hot and thirsty people when the daily maximum forecast temperature exceeds the monthly maximum average in the local area.
oOh!'s head of production John Purcell said "This is the first time in Australia we've run a national campaign that uses the temperature to control what content plays.
"The technology we have invested in allows us to easily tailor a client's campaign to respond to external triggers such as the weather, sports scores or social media.
"The best part is that each location automatically reacts to local conditions providing advertisers with an easy way to ensure highly targeted and relevant campaigns," Mr Purcell said.
Mindshare Strategist Catherine Rushton said that the hyper relevance this technology provides, both in reaching people when they are hot and thirsty and close to point of purchase, improves our ability to influence the impulse behaviour that drives this category.
Unilever's campaign will use four hundred of oOh!'s retail digital panels to display the Streets Ice-Cream creative encompassing multiple brands including Magnum as well as the Lipton Ice Tea creative.
As part of the wider national campaign both creative will appear in cafes, universities and on big billboards until 23 March 2014.


The treatment of Depression was revolutionized when Prozac was approved as the first antidepressant by the US FDA in 1987. Antidepressant drugs work on the neurotransmitters of the brain by inhibiting certain signals and increasing the activity of other signals. The popular belief surrounding depression is the Monoamine Hypothesis: that depression is the result of underactivity of monoamines, the specific neurotransmitters that are responsible for different functions in the brain. The effect antidepressants were having on people made sense in this hypothesis: brains with underactivity of monoamines get treated with monoamines, and the result is a happier person. However, a long standing problem with the hypothesis is that antidepressant medication can immediately raise levels of monoamines however the symptoms of depression take on average take 3 to 5 weeks to abate and additionally, only work on 60% of the patients. This warrants asking if the Monoamine Hypothesis is the complete picture of depression.
Ketamine, a staple anesthetic in emergency rooms, has been around since the 1960s. Often used as a recreational drug, ketamine has anesthetic and dissociative properties based on the dose. In a small case study in 2006, the National Institute of Mental Health discovered when ketamine was administered to 18 treatment-resistant, depressed patients, depression symptoms improved within one day in 71% of those given ketamine. This discovery sheds light on our understanding of antidepressant mechanisms in the brain.
Ketamine is currently not US FDA approved, however clinics are emerging with Ketamine as a treatment option for otherwise treatment-resistant patients. Another concern with Ketamine is that there is not enough evidence for treatment of depression with ketamine to determine its safety in chronic use. While research is not a high priority for pharmaceutical companies, companies are trying to develop and test new molecules that have similar effects as ketamine.
Exploring the use of new depression medication such as ketamine is also key for understanding and preventing mental health conditions through an understanding of the mechanisms that work. Changes in the medical community and in gold-standard practices require rigorous testing and solid evidence of efficacy and effectiveness. Once approved however, much of this information remains in the knowledge banks of a few, especially in the field of mental health. A dedicated team of mental health professionals partaking in knowledge translation and knowledge dissemination can enhance the individual's understanding of mental health concerns and treatment, and play a leading role in their mental health and well-being.

Dog breeders can be found anywhere. However, buying the best-looking puppy in the pet store does not necessarily guarantee that you bought a pet with a top breed.
What are the different types of breeders? Which of them provide the best dog breeds?
1) Look for reputable breeders. Well known breeders know specific details about their specialized breed. They examine genetic diseases that are known to have physical and emotional impact on that breed, perform veterinary maintenance and sustain breeding records.
A breeder of good reputation will provide you with both the good and bad points about the breed you prefer. They offer useful advice and assistance to new dog owners.
You can spot a reputable breeder by the way they maintain the dogs they personally own. They will let you observe the kind of care they give the dogs and allow you to see where the dogs live.
Most outstanding breeders are not just out to make money. They provide a written health guarantee with all the dogs they sell.
The majority of reputable dog breeders belong to local or national breed organizations and clubs.
2) Avoid backyard breeders, puppy mills and pet shops.
Backyard Breeders. These people have limited education about the breed standards. Commonly, backyard breeders do not maintain a regular check-up on the dog's health and genetic makeup. Usually, these people breed to make money and that is their focus.
Puppy Mills. This is a term commonly used to describe a business that produces large quantities of dogs. The majority of the puppies born and trained in puppy mills do not usually follow a regular veterinary care and appropriate feeding. Puppy mills do not sell directly to the public. They only allow sale to pet shops, brokers and dog auctions.
There is no generic breed testing conducted in puppy mills. The dogs born here have not been adequately socialized and trained. Most of the puppies are sold in large numbers at the age of 3 to 4 weeks and could later give the dogs emotional and health problems.
Pet shops. Many pet shops grant guarantees. However, these guarantees last for only a year while majority of genetic diseases found in dogs materialize when the animal is over a year old. Most pet shops buy their dogs from puppy mills at a very young age for a cheap price. Young puppies that are not suitably socialized could cause behavior problems and poor health.
Finding the best dog breeder means your pet could live a longer life. Find a reputable breeder now and spare yourself from possible heartache.

Power System Development Fund
PK Pujari
Govt may introduce new gas auction policy for stranded power plants
The government is contemplating it it would continue with the current policy of auction of imported regasified liquefied natural gas (RLNG) or it will work on a new formula.Debapriya Mondal | ETEnergyWorld | October 14, 2016, 14:20 IST
New Delhi: The government is contemplating it it would continue with the current policy of auction of imported regasified liquefied natural gas (RLNG) or it will work on a new formula.
Talking to media at the sidelines of an industry event here, power secretary PK Pujari said in two three months the government would decide if it would continue with the gas auction policy for stranded power plants or it would formulate a new policy.
"Our psdf gas scheme was for 2 years. It is finishing in March 2017. So at the moment we are looking at various options to come out with a policy for all the gas power plants, which is about 25000 MW of capacity," Pujari said.
"Whether we will do it with psdf support or not is not very clear. But we are looking at options, where we can get the gas without psdf support, provide assured gas at reasonable price. Of course it depends what is ultimate tariff that works out at the power. So these options we are examining along with gas suppliers. So may be in the next 2-3 months we will finalise the option and then take a call whether we continue with psdf or we switch over to another," he added.

The current policy is set to lapse in March 2017.
So far, there have been two successful rounds of auctions where companies including GMR, GVK, Lanco, Dabhol power plants have secured RLNG.
The auction process involves reverse bid of the subsidy amount that the government provides through through the Power System Development Fund (PSDF).
However, the third round of auctions were canceled after the participating companies decided to forgo the subsidy.
The companies quoted negative bids which led to technical glitch in the system as it was not designed to operate on negative bids.
Consequently, the third round got canceled.
The government said it would reschedule bidding after fixing the glitch in the bidding system.
In the first round of auctions in June 2015, 14 gas-based power plants with a cumulative capacity of 8,100 Mw had bid.
The gas auction policy was introduced in 2015 under which every stakeholder in the supply chain would have to forego a part of their returns on operations.
While the central government would give up the service tax it levies on gas sourcing, the power plant operators would forego return on equity.

Cooling of polymer granules and strands in air and water was examined. The greatest effect of a turbulence of air fl ow on the cooling rate of granules was revealed in the starting period. An analysis of the cooling of granules in water demonstrated that the rate of heat transfer from a volume of thermoplastic material to its surface was a rate-limiting step and, thus, an effect of turbulization of a water fl ow on the cooling was negligible. We showed that it would be appropriate to install partitions destroying a heated boundary layer of water for intensifying process in a cooling bath since an actual cooling of the strands in the water bath longer corresponds to the case when water moves together with strand.

Jayalalithaa Jayaram, généralement appelée Jayalalithaa (), née le  à Komalavalli (Mysore) et morte le  à  Chennai (Tamil Nadu), est une femme politique indienne.

Tout d'abord actrice de cinéma, elle se produit dans plus de 140 films en langues tamoul, kannada et télougou. Elle entre en politique en 1982 au sein de l'AIADMK, parti dont elle prend la tête après la mort de M.G. Ramachandran. Elle est plusieurs fois ministre en chef du Tamil Nadu (de 1991 à 1996, de 2001 à 2006, de 2011 à 2014 puis de 2015 à 2016), alternant succès et défaites électorales ainsi que plusieurs procès pour des affaires de corruption. Elle meurt en fonction, touchée par une crise cardiaque, quelques mois après avoir remporté les élections de .

Ses partisans se réfèrent souvent à elle en l'appelant  (« mère ») voire  (« leader révolutionnaire »).

Biographie

Jeunesse
Jayalalithaa est née le  à Melukote dans l'État de Mysore (aujourd'hui Karnataka). Son grand-père était chirurgien au service du Royaume de Mysore.

Le père de Jayalalithaa meurt alors qu'elle a deux ans. Sa mère déménage alors à Bangalore, chez ses parents, puis débute ensuite une carrière d'actrice dans le cinéma tamoul à Chennai, sous le nom de scène de Sandhya. À Bangalore, Jayalalithaa va à la Bishop Cotton Girls' School puis, à Chennai, à la Sacred Heart Matriculation School.

Jayalalithaa parle anglais, hindi, kannada, malayalam, tamoul et télougou.

Carrière cinématographique
La mère de Jayalalithaa la persuade de travailler dans des films alors qu'elle a 15 ans et est toujours à l'école à la condition qu'elle ne rate pas de cours. Jayalalithaa tourne ainsi en 1961 dans le film anglophone Epistle. Elle fait ses débuts à Sandalwood en 1964 dans le film Chinnada Gombe et dans le cinéma tamoul en 1965 dans Vennira Aadai de C. V. Sridhar. L'année suivante elle tourne en télougou dans Manushulu Mamathalu. C'est la première héroïne à apparaitre en jupe dans le cinéma tamoul.

En 1972, elle reçoit un Filmfare Award de meilleure actrice pour son rôle dans Pattikada Pattanama avec Sivaji Ganesan. Elle reçoit encore deux fois cette récompense pour ses rôles dans Chandradhoyam, en tamoul, et Sri Krishna Satya, en télougou. Elle tourne de nouveau avec Ganesan dans Galatta Kalyanam et Deiva Magan, ce dernier étant le premier film tamoul soumis par l'Inde aux Oscars.

Carrière politique
Jayalalithaa rejoint l'AIADMK en 1982. Ce parti a été fondé par M.G. Ramachandran, lui-même ancien acteur, et il serait à l'origine de l'entrée de Jayalalithaa en politique même si cette information est niée par l'intéressée.

En 1983, elle devient secrétaire à la propagande du parti et candidate à l'élection partielle pour la circonscription de Thiruchendur. Ramachandran souhaite qu'elle soit membre de la Rajya Sabha en raison de sa pratique de l'anglais et elle y est élue de 1984 à 1989.

En 1984, alors que Ramachandran subit une crise cardiaque, Jayalalithaa aurait tenté de devenir ministre en chef. Elle conduit les élections nationales de 1984 pour l'AIADMK, alors allié au Congrès.

Ramachandran meurt en 1987 et deux factions se font face à l'AIADMK, l'un soutenant Jayalalithaa et l'autre sa veuve Janaki Ramachandran. Cette dernière l'emporte et devient ministre en chef le  mais Rajiv Gandhi impose le President's rule sur le gouvernement de l'État.

Jayalalithaa conduit la campagne qui suit, en 1989, en se réclamant de l'héritage de Ramachandran. Elle est élue députée de Bodinayakkanur et devient leader de l'opposition à la Vidhan Sabha. En , les deux factions de l'AIADMK se réunifient sous la direction de Jayalalithaa.

En 1991, Rajiv Gandhi est assassiné quelques jours avant l'élection et l'alliance de l'AIADMK avec le Congrès lui permet de bénéficier de la vague de sympathie : la coalition AIADMK-Congrès remporte 225 sièges sur 234 à la Vidhan Sabha du Tamil Nadu et l'ensemble des 40 sièges de l'État à la Lok Sabha. Jayalalithaa est alors la première femme à devenir ministre en chef du Tamil Nadu à la suite d'une élection.

Elle vit pendant plusieurs années avec une femme, sans que la nature de leur relation ne soit précisée.

En 1995, le mariage de son fils adoptif Sudhakaran avec la petite-fille de l'acteur Sivaji Ganesan est diffusé sur écrans géants à Chennai et visionné par plus de  personnes.

En 1996, l'AIADMK est lourdement battu et Jayalalithaa est elle-même défaite dans sa circonscription alors que son gouvernement est accusé de corruption.

Jayalalithaa se voit interdite de participation aux élections de 2001 en raison de sa condamnation à cinq ans de prison pour avoir détourné des biens appartenant à l'agence gouvernementale Tamil Nadu Small Industries Corporation Limited (TANSI). Elle avait fait appel de cette sentence, mais l'affaire n'a pas encore été résolue au moment de la désignation officielle des candidats, ce qui motive le refus de la commission électorale. Malgré cette situation, l'AIADMK remporte la majorité, et Jayalalithaa est à nouveau nommée ministre en chef du Tamil Nadu en tant que membre non-élue de l'assemblée de l'État le .

Lors des élections de 2001, Jayalalithaa est sous le coup d'une interdiction de se présenter décidée par la Cour suprême en raison d'une condamnation criminelle. C'est le ministre AIADMK O. Panneerselvam qui devient ministre en chef mais son gouvernement est accusé d'être une marionnette de Jayalalithaa. Acquittée de plusieurs accusations par la Haute Cour de Madras, Jayalalithaa redevient ministre en chef en .

Après avoir perdu les élections de 2006, l'AIADMK revient au pouvoir en 2011 et Jayalalithaa redevient ministre en chef pour la quatrième fois.

Le , elle a été jugée et condamnée à 4 ans de prison pour corruption et fraude fiscale mais est acquittée en appel le .
