Government's Ineffective UK ISP Internet Porn Ban Coming April 2019
Sunday, January 13th, 2019 (12:01 am) - Score 55,090
No, it's not an early April Fools. Instead April is officially the month when the government's new age verification system – targeted at commercial websites and "apps" that contain pornographic content – comes into force. Broadband ISPs will also be required to block sites that fail to comply with the new rules.
At present all of the major ISPs should already be giving their subscribers a choice over whether or not to block adult content via their network-level Parental Controls, which is very useful if you have children. Despite this the Digital Economy Act 2017 (summary) went one step further by forcing an age-verification system upon 'commercial' websites that contain pornographic content.
Under this approach the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC), which has been handed the responsibility of regulating all this (predicted to cost them around £4.4m), gains the power to force broadband ISPs and mobile network operators into blocking commercial pornographic websites and apps that fail to put "tough age [18+] verification measures" in place.
Sadly no judicial oversight to help prevent against poor censorship decisions appears to exist and the law allows the blocking of "material other than the offending material" (over-blocking here we come). Crucially all of this has just been marked as "fit for purpose" by the Regulatory Policy Committee (RPC), which effectively means that it can proceed despite plenty of flaws and unknowns in its design.
NOTE: The BBFC will also be able to direct ISPs to block access to sites containing "extreme pornography", regardless of whether AV controls are in place.
Baroness Shields, UK Minister for Internet Safety, said in 2018:
"We will help make sure children aren't exposed to harmful sexualised content online by requiring age verification for access to commercial sites containing pornographic material.
Just as we do in the offline world, we want to make sure that online content that is only suitable for adults is not freely accessible to children."
However, leaving aside the obvious debate about making the internet a safer place for children, the government still hasn't clarified precisely how the age verification system will actually work and in any case it's only likely to be effective at hindering casual access (i.e. there's not much that they can do to stop tech-savvy users from simply circumventing it). But those aren't the only concerns.
Sadly nobody knows quite how to make an accurate Age Verification system online, at least not without forcing people to share their private personal and or financial details, often with unreliable porn peddlers. The infamous 'Ashley Madison' hack has already highlighted just how dangerous such information could be in the wrong hands (multiple cases of blackmail and suicide etc.).
For example, MindGeek, which runs major sites like PornHub, YouPorn and RedTube, has previously proposed to use a mix of credit card, mobile SMS, passport or driving licence based identification through their AgeID system to manage the process; this will also be licensed out to other sites (i.e. one-click verification across many sites).
However some fear that the AgeID approach could disadvantage those using other solutions that would require the user to re-verify and there are concerns about the lack of solid privacy safeguards involved.
Elsewhere around 60,000 shops are expected to offer Age Verification Cards, which will embarrassingly be based on some form of vague shopkeeper's assessment. Fun, we can see lots of people using that.
Jim Killock, Executive Director of the Open Rights Group, said:
"The BBFC will struggle to ensure that Age Verification is safe, secure and anonymous. They are powerless to ensure people's privacy.
While BBFC say they will only block a few large sites that don't use AV, there are tens of thousands of porn sites. Once MPs work out that AV is failing to make porn inaccessible, some will demand that more and more sites are blocked. BBFC will be pushed to block ever larger numbers of websites."
Meanwhile last year's Impact Assessment for all this estimated that "large" ISPs could each expect to incur costs of between £100,000 to £500,000 to update their systems in order to block non-compliant websites (this assumes a block of up to 50 sites per year at "DNS level").
Obviously big ISPs can deal with such a cost, not least because they've already got similar systems in place, but smaller providers may struggle. Judging by their responses, most of the smallest providers that we asked last year still weren't sure what the government actually expected (MPs do not appear to have consulted them much or at all) or even if they'd be included.
The government's guidance does state that the regulator should take into consideration the number and type of customers the ISP has (i.e. how many residential users) before issuing an order and sources indicate that, unofficially, they may only be looking at providers with 100,000+ residential broadband subscribers. One top of that it's already been indicated that simple DNS blocking should suffice.
Not that this matters, ISP-level blocking of any type is merely a placebo, the equivalent of leaving a door wide open with the words "do not enter" stuck outside. This is not the fault of ISPs and merely reflects how the internet functions. Anybody who wants to access such content will easily be able to circumvent any blocks by using various Virtual Private Network (VPN) or Proxy Servers, which only require basic knowledge (background).
Likewise there's still a big question mark over mission creep and where the line will be drawn on the definition of such content, with naughty pictures also appearing on many sites other than those that are dedicated toward peddling porn (e.g. Google Image Search). At least initially the focus is likely to be on the biggest distributors but, as warned above, in time that could evolve.
Lest we forget that there may also be some unintended consequences, such as forcing those who work in the adult industry into more dangerous situations by impeding their ability to advertise safely on the internet (back to curb crawling outside your house etc.) or blocking sites that merely talk frankly about sex / sexual health, or which provide related advice.
In the meantime the only fool-proof way to completely stop all access to such content is to physically disable your internet connection. In addition, the Government is understood to have set aside £10m in order to fend off any legal battles related to the new measures.
NOTE: We believe that ISPs which identify themselves as being primarily business providers may also escape the rules.

I'm not giving any personal details to porn sites, this is just censorship, people should not suffer because some parents are not responsible.
Thank you parents should learn to be more responsible and watch there children online all this internet censorship its discusting

I will go back to the to buying fhm mag. Ultimate soft porn but better than having my bank wiped clean ha ha
Names Gonee
use a VPN. It's not some fancy thing that you have to be a NASA employee to understand. They're easier to use than a microwave.
This legislation won't survive a legal challenge but it will probably take years to come to be settled.
It won't stop at porn – political censorship is on the way. Criticising political orthodoxy is labelled "hate speech" or "fake news". Canada has already started and is planning to go further – see Rebel Media. Sweden prosecutes people who accurately describe rioters.
Seems like the normal mess our government and civil servants create. Not surprised by this at all. And no one will get into trouble for blocking simple sites that have nothing to do with porn due to flawed broken unworkable policies.
But this is the British we'll have no porn here…..
Don't, blame civil servants, they only do what the morons you elect tell them to.
chris conder
Government and civil servants are becoming increasingly out of touch. Most kids can bypass anything they try to do. Guess it will probably fox a few elderly perverts though. Especially if they work for the government.
Viewing pornography does not make someone a 'pervert' by default. No need to be so methodist.
Some perverse stuff out there for everyone taste but most people's tastes are relatively mundane, which is why the perverse stuff is perverse not normal 🙂
FullFibre
I agree Chris.
CarlT, Come on, you can't possibly know what most peoples tastes are. Don't talk tosh.
I don't but the people making the stuff do which is presumably why much of their content is fairly mundane – that's what's demanded of them.
Still if you want to claim that I am talking tosh when I say that not everyone watching pornography is a pervert that's fine. I suppose it depends on your definition of what perversion is and how open-minded, or not, a person may be.
truthbewithyou
Definition of pervert: a person whose sexual behaviour is regarded as abnormal
Number of men that watch porn regularly. 75%. Number of women that watch porn regularly, 55%
By definition, you are perverted if you don't watch porn.
The real question is whether cooperating adult sites will blanket AgeID all UK IP's (inc. UK VPN locations) or just IP's from residential ISP's.
Crazy porn ban so messed up country you could actually walk into track and purchase a knife without ID.
Hmm. Depends on the knife.
https://www.gov.uk/buying-carrying-knives
This ban perfectly demonstrates the stupidity of the government. Handing out a placebo effect does nothing to protect kids. You can't 100% police the internet like they think you can. It will be laughably easy to either work around the block or use sites that are not blocked. Everyone in their right mind knows that.
Educating kids is what's needed but no lets not have a solution that actually works, much better an inappropriate, inefective, expensive one instead.
How do you educate kids not to watch porn? Hormones kick in by 12 or 13. How can we educate away one of the basic human instincts?
Jigsy
Even if this did work (it won't, let's not delude ourselves), children still have bodies of their own…
So if all this does is increase the chances of children exposing their naked bodies to each other… then what?
Ban bodies?
Nah it'll just mean a boom in teenage pregnancies which the state will be taxed extra to pay for… mind you maybe that'll stop the madness of claims of sexual abuse when a man puts his hand on a women's shoulder?
Or maybe we'll see an upsurge in vintage pornographic magazine sales?
dragoneast
Come on folks. Porn is the only thing British politicians can agree on. They know all about it.
Unlike anything else.
Pete L
Time for a VPN
SuperFast Dream
The Internet is doomed lol.
So, when the BBFC realise they are fighting a losing battle they will return to the 'possibly new' government saying they can't do it.
At that point the government will force all ISP's to issue their own Routers to customers with Adult filtering on and enforced with a 500-bit password. Any customer who attempts to connect to the ISP using their own 'unlocked' equipment or invokes the use of a VPN, Public Proxy, Tor or….. will be banned for life.
In no time the Newsagents top shelves will be filled with a variety of publications again… we'll be back to the 70's, 80's UK in no time :).
Still, give it a go, that's the spirit, no harm in at least trying to fill a 2-mile-wide crater with a trowel and a little cement…

I expect age verification will become the default option for social media (MPs hate it) & eventually all internet access. I also expect if article 13 of the European Copyright Directive passes that anything uploaded to the internet will be subjected to copyright checks (but with mission creep it could include anything like keywords). I think it is a false belief that the internet is "too big" to censor. You just overblock. I also believe that people will increasingly turn to VPNs & the dark web more & more. Also more decentralized sites like Bitchute could become more popular.
B Kelly
We're now approaching mid-February, and there's been nothing else reported on it. Not even the websites themselves have tweeted anything about this ban to UK users, yet it's a month and a half away.
Apparently, in terms of viewers from countries, the UK is second when viewing Pornhub. I don't expect MindGeek to sit back and lose millions of views because of some dinosaurs in Westminster.
Also, consider that programmes like Love Island are happy to show couples having sex, but softcore movies aren't acceptable?
This whole idea should be binned.
We're just weeks away from this and the government has STILL not clarified a thousand questions asked. What is considered "commercial"? Are bloggers commercial if they have an ad or sell a product? Are all adult bloggers and affiliates now going to be included in this draconian scheme?
I run several blogs, they're all based on US servers, so how does that affect me? Does it depend on my nationality or where the site is hosted?
What about VPN use?
Once again, these moronic old folks who don't know the difference between an ISP and a modem are making insanely stupid decisions on behalf of ignorant parents who are too lazy to do their own damn job of raising their kids and expect the world to change to do it for them.
We all agree that kids should not be viewing this stuff, but none of this will work in the way holding parents accountable for actually raising their kids would.
"making insanely stupid decisions on behalf of ignorant parents who are too lazy to do their own damn job of raising their kids and expect the world to change to do it for them."
Hell even the simple parental controls on Windows 8 did the job for me. Easily setting the age level and time limits on the kids accounts and sending me a report of their activity each week. This report helped start a few constructive and targeted conversations with them.
ISPs were supposed to ask if we want our connections unlocked for adult content, neither my home or business ISPs have asked, they are just unlocked by default. But they are not being forced to comply with this law because they have a far more easily manipulated law to use. Next step will probably be selling "additional services", just like the monitoring system that was supposed to be built into all new cars in Europe, but hasn't happened yet.
Knowing this shower of s**t, something as simple as a Firefox addon to change the IP might be enough. If not, looks like a VPN for me.
It is really curious how quite this legislation has gone, is it just overshadowed with the Brexit debacle?
I've just read a funny story about a Head Marketing for a UK ISP (I won't mention any names).
He was using a motorcycle forum to upload and show off his porn collection, obviously trying to impress his mates.
Unfortunately, he'd forgotten that some time earlier he'd used the same forum to brag about his job title and gave a link to his company's website.
Oppps, a bit embarrassing!

"Licence to Wank". Sounds like a Bond film. Kind of!
Mr me
Ironically the only people who will be blocked are the older generation who can't comprehend what a vpn is.
Clowns running this country.
Bungle
Best comment ever.
Like this will work. Done in the same vain as the bedroom tax. Utter nonsense that is destined to fail. Sure blame content creators for content kids see. Instead of their irresponsible parents. Shouldn't devices come with parenting tools to regulate what one will allow their kids to see? This will fall flat on it's face in no time. Especially since the useless government hasn't thought this through. Never mind the fact that their priorities are skewed. Aren't there bigger more important issues than wasting tax payers money? In between £100,000 and £500,000 per year to maintain. And also £10,000,000 in case of lawsuit. Which wont be enough and will more likely put this country in deeper debt. If prohibition which was more strict in USA failed. Why will this be any different?
They don't care about the kids, it's about normalizing censorship.
GobbleChops
To quote someone 'porn is the canary in the cage for other censorship. it's the first thing to get banned before other things get banned'. This is to test how far the Tories can censor freedom of speech. Trust me, they'll be censoring other things. Remember the media blackouts under Cameron.
According to the Government study (which they ignored) children are being exposed to porn not from Pornsites but from Facebook, Twitter and Google (who give money othe Torie government in the form of donations!?!) and get tax breaks.
If you think the Tories are bad, imagine how bad it will be if all these school-teacher types from Lab/Lib/Green get in again. They want to ban men from even thinking about women as sexual objects, while actively encouraging gays to do whatever they want.
They are all bad, all supporting this idea of one world order and profiting through other peoples misery based on either captialism and socialism and the same 2 moronic partys responcible for destroying this country have fought for leadership for over 100 years. We've never had a different leading party beside labour or tory. Over 100 years, check your history, labour and tory. It's time for a change in leadership, time for a new party and it shouldnt be these 2.
Mark Tyrrell
Children should be playing with toys! End of! Leave the internet to the grown ups please!
Thank god for the Tor Browser which no doubt will be the most popular browser to avoid this crap through vpn proxy. 🙂

What better way to finish your weekend than to chill out, relax and dance to an eclectic mix of great vintage and contemporary swing, Jazz and Blues. DJ Mr Kicks and friends playing music from Duke Ellington and Billie Holiday to Muddy Waters and Diana Krall 7.15-11pm.
The evening kicks off with a Blues dance class with former American Blues dance champ Simon 'Mr Kicks' Selmon and Anna Lambrechts 7.15-8.15pm (no experience necessary or partner required).
Blues dancing is the slow dance done by Lindy Hoppers, it's slower, fluid and highly rhythmic with expressive body movements.
Like the film Dirty Dancing, Blues is an 'after-hours' dance, often misunderstood as sexual or 'sleazy', in realty, Blues is about experiencing the full range of human emotion - love, passion, joy, sadness, pain.
There's no limit to the emotions this music can evoke in us, the real beauty of Blues is its focus on connection whether you're dancing with a partner or on your own, likewise no limit to where Blues can take you in your dancing!

Pacific communities urged to vaccinate against measles
Wednesday, November 6, 2019 - 20:27. Updated on Thursday, November 21, 2019 - 18:33.
The World Health Organisation (WHO) and UNICEF are calling on Pacific communities to vaccinate against measles in response to recent outbreaks of measles in Tonga and Samoa.
The organisations also urge the public to ensure they are immunized prior to travelling internationally, attending sports events or other large community gatherings. Parents are also strongly urged to vaccinate their children against the disease as it provides the safest and best protection against measles.
This comes after Tonga's Ministry of Health issued a health advisory reporting confirmed cases of measles on 22 October. On 16 October, Samoa's Ministry of Health declared a measles outbreak.
In response to these recent outbreaks, UNICEF and WHO said in a media statement on 6 November they were continuing to provide support and resources to help Pacific Island countries prepare and respond to the threat of measles.
This included providing 89,000 vaccines to help protect at-risk populations including children, and in raising public awareness about the disease and the importance of vaccination.
In addition, support was being provided on the surveillance and outbreak responses, access to laboratories for testing, and provision of medical supplies.
UNICEF Pacific Representative Sheldon Yett said children are the most at risk during a measles outbreak.
"UNICEF is working together with WHO to support governments in the Pacific to respond to those communities affected and to ensure vaccines are readily available to reach children with lifesaving vaccines as quickly as possible."
At least 95 per cent immunization coverage was needed to achieve 'herd immunity' for measles as recommended by WHO. This helped protect communities by slowing or stopping the spread of the virus by ensuring most of the population is immune.
Herd immunity also provided the best protection for the most vulnerable members of our community who could not be vaccinated, including young infants, unvaccinated pregnant women and individuals with weakened immune systems.
In the Pacific, as in other parts of the world, some countries have yet to reach this target which means they are at greater risk of outbreaks.
WHO's Representative to the South Pacific, Dr Corinne Capuano, said two doses of the measles vaccine provided the greatest protection from the disease –at around 99 per cent.
"People who are travelling internationally can also help protect themselves and Pacific communities by making sure they are immunized before departure. This will prevent the virus from spreading."
She said it was critical that children and adults ensure they are up-to-date with their vaccinations, as per their national schedule. Travellers who are uncertain of their measles vaccination status should receive at least one dose of vaccine at least 15 days prior to travel.
Measles is a serious, very infectious disease caused by a virus. It spreads easily from person to person through the air, by breathing, coughing and sneezing. Anyone who hasn't previously had measles or been immunized with a measles vaccine can get measles.

Lee Britain Elementary
A historical look
Lee Britain Elementary began as Central Elementary. Central Elementary was originally located on the old school campus (where the Senior Heritage Center is now). In 1961, when the current Irving High School opened, Bowie Junior High moved into the old high school building on 6th Street and Central Elementary moved into the Junior high building on Edmondson. In 1965, the name was changed to honor Lee Britain.
Daniel Lee Britain, known as Lee, was the son of Henry W. Britain. Henry Britain sold part of his ranch land to J.O. Schulze and Otis Brown on which they founded the town of Irving in 1903.
Lee Britain was born in 1886 and died in 1957. He spent most of his life operating a dairy on land that his father gave him. The land was located between today's Britain Rd. and Nursery Rd. along Irving Blvd. He was active in the development of early Irving and served on the IISD Board of Trustees for 22 years. He married Kate Murphy in 1906, and the couple had five children.

Jefferson's varsity cheer team finishes season at Capitol Conference Championships

Hyun Jin Cho, Staff Writer
After cheering at football games and performances during the pep rallies, the Jefferson varsity cheer team ended their season at the Capitol Conference Championships.
On Oct. 26, Jefferson's varsity cheer team competed in their last tournament of the year at Wakefield High School. The team finished with a score of 149, which placed them fourth out of seven teams. In this tournament, the three teams with the highest ratings are able to compete at the regional level. Because the team was one place away from qualifying, their competition season is officially over.
"The competition is where all seven varsity teams in our conference come together to perform a 2:30 to 3 minute routine complete with jump stunts and tumbling, and get scored on it," senior Rachel Vasta, one of the three captains, said.
Many students hold the misconception that all cheerleaders do is cheer on the sidelines at football games, and while this is one of their responsibilities, most of their practices and training sessions are directed toward competitions.
"In reality, we have six practices a week, and maybe one is dedicated to games," Vasta said. "We start off the season doing a lot of conditioning and teaching cheers for newcomers. Once we have competition choreography though, that's 90% of what we work on. Lots of conditioning, trying new stunts, working to get tumbling, practicing jumps and brutally stretching your fliers."
Several members agreed that although some parts of the routine could've been improved with more practice, overall the team performed well.
"There was one step in our cheer that I forgot to do. I was supposed to extend for a hitch, but I was distracted and forgot," freshman Richard Wang, a first-year member, said. "I felt like Elizabeth's basket at the end went very high, and we got a good response from the crowd."
The audience of the event consisted of competitors from other schools and the families of Jefferson's cheer team. Jefferson's junior varsity cheer team also attended the competition.
"[The junior varsity team members], of course, were cheering for us," Wang said. "Hearing them cheer for us was extremely relaxing. It kind of gave me extra power, like what a cheerleader is supposed to do."
Considering the fact that this championship determines the outcome of the season, the cheerleaders worked in 16 hour practices each week.
"Our coach told us to leave everything on the mat. That may sound really cheesy, but it's basically what we were thinking," Wang said. "I wanted to leave with no regrets."
Once the cheer team's routine had ended, members focused on other concerns, including in academics.
"To be honest, I was very tired and thinking about all the calculus studying I could be doing," sophomore Christine Zhao said.
Much has changed throughout the season, and the relationships between the cheerleaders have also evolved alongside them.
"The nature of cheer helps foster such strong relationships," Vasta said. "Between saving each other from broken bones and concussions on a daily basis, to teaming up when we run a timed mile so that we can encourage each other to keep pushing, to just the concept of us all working together towards one common goal rather than most sports where you worry mostly about your own performance at a game, [cheer] creates a lot of love between us."
For freshmen, sophomores, and juniors on the team, there is still time for them to show their Jefferson pride in years to come, but the seniors' performances will be missed.
"Although my incredible senior cheerleaders are going to be gone, I'm excited to see the new group that will be joining us," Wang said.

Father of murdered realtor says alleged sexual assault at open house shows perils of industry
Alanna SmithMore from Alanna Smith
Robber wearing Venom mask targets A&W
Police continue to investigate sexual assault which left woman in critical condition
This home on McKenzie Drive S.E. was the scene of an alleged sexual assault after a realtor was attacked during an open house on Saturday, June 22, 2019. Gavin Young/Postmedia
The father of a murdered realtor is urging real estate agents to protect themselves after a reported sexual assault in Calgary at an open house on Saturday.
"It's easy. It's just the easiest thing in the world. It's an empty property. It's a female on her own," said Jeff Buziak, on why these situations can attract perpetrators. "You need to know how to take care of yourself and manage a situation."
His 24-year-old daughter, Lindsay, was working as a real estate agent in B.C. in 2008 when she was brutally murdered with stab wounds to the chest and head while showing a luxury home to a couple.
Her killers have yet to be caught.
Buziak has since been a tireless advocate for his daughter and continues to spread awareness on the incident to prevent similar situations.
Circumstances of his daughter's attack are eerily similar to the Calgary incident that occurred at approximately 2 p.m. at an open house in the 800 block of McKenzie Drive S.E.
Police said a man entered the home and spoke to the female realtor despite her efforts to end the conversation. The man then grabbed the realtor and touched her sexually without consent.
The woman convinced the man to leave the house. He returned a short time later but the realtor locked the door and called for help. He left, but returned a third time, said officials.
Officers searched the neighbourhood but were not able to locate the man. As of Sunday afternoon, there are still no suspects in custody.
Ron Christensen with CIR Realty, whose company was showing the property, said the victim is recovering from her ordeal.
"She is fine, aside from shaken up," he told Postmedia on Sunday.
Christensen noted realtors have access to an app on their key entry software that sends out electronic notifications 90 seconds after opening the lockbox and another one minute later. If the agent doesn't respond, a distress call is sent out.
He added industry officials are also considering new measures to ensure women aren't left alone in open houses.
"I understand various brokerages will be discussing having more than one female realtor at open houses," Christensen said.
Buziak said every time he hears about instances such as this he is shocked, saddened and angry.

He has been a realtor for almost 40 years and said while the industry hasn't changed, society has — and people and companies need to adjust.
He said realtors should never turn their back on a client and always let the potential buyers enter a room first. Realtors should also keep moving if they feel uncomfortable and make their way toward the front door of the property.
Additionally, he said if someone feels uneasy about meeting a new client they should be careful with their greeting and avoid offering their hand for a handshake. This way the client can't use the opportunity to yank them away or attack.
He also said realty companies should require stringent safety training for staff.
But, most importantly, he said realtors should follow their instincts.
A sale isn't worth a person's safety, said Buziak.
Just last month, a 42-year-old man was charged with sexually assaulting a realtor showing a home in Lethbridge.
A 23-year-old woman was working at a city show home when a man entered the property and asked to view a different home down the block. The realtor took him to the home and showed him the basement, where he is accused of sexually assaulting her.
According to police, the woman messaged co-workers for help before leaving the first home and a colleague arrived just as the attacker was driving away. Investigators said it was a random crime in which the victim and accused did not know each other.
Police later located a suspect and charged him with sexual assault. He has since been released with conditions and is scheduled to appear in court mid-July.
In Calgary, the search for the offender is still underway.
He is described as being of either Middle Eastern or South Asian descent, with a salt and pepper beard, a medium build and short, brown hair.
At the time of the incident, he was wearing a grey shirt and dark shoes.
Anyone with information about the incident or the identity of the man can contact police by calling the non-emergency line at 403-266-1234, anonymously through Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 or online at www.calgarycrimestoppers.org

In 1940, the weave of a Panama hat inspired Verdura to crisscross strips of gold on a cigarette case for friend Cole Porter; today this motif, translated to the Criss Cross Cuff, is one of Verdura's most popular designs. Worn on its own or in pairs, the bold cuff design creates a polished look for any occasion.
• 18k palladium white gold.
• Available in small and medium sizes.
In 1940, Linda Porter commissioned Verdura to design a cigarette case as a gift to her husband, Cole, on the opening of his Broadway show, "Panama Hattie." Taking inspiration from the musical's title, Verdura copied the weave of his own Panama hat, crisscrossing strips of gold. Throughout his career, Verdura would create over twenty cigarette cases for his dear friend.

A video shows the moment paramedics rush to the scene of a serious crash that has shut the A12 and seen the air ambulance land.
The A12 is completely shut heading south after a two-car crash near Brentwood, between junction 12 for Mountnessing and Shenfield and the M25 junction at the Brook Street roundabout.
Some drivers say they have been stuck in standstill traffic for almost an hour, with drivers turning their engines off and getting out of their vehicles.
However, Highways England have now said they are working to free trapped traffic from the back of the queue and are still working with Essex Police to re-open the road as soon as possible.


Elementary school students love telling stories. Let them put some in the yearbook.
Yearbooks are a piece of our history that we treasure forever. Even though the photos and design are the stars of the yearbook, you want the writing to stand out and remain timeless over the years, too. The stories can take your already great yearbook over the top.
Unfortunately, elementary school yearbook copy can often take less of a priority in its overall completion, and understandably so. Obviously, a third grader hasn't built the necessary skills to interview the principal and superintendent on the latest budget cut crisis to draft a flawless 3,000 word expose. And as a yearbook advisor with a lot on your plate, you might not have the time or resources to do so, either.
But just because the students in elementary school can't keep up with Shakespeare just yet, you shouldn't be overlooking them as a valuable source for yearbook copy. Anyone who has ever sat at the dinner table with one knows that kids in elementary school and middle school have a ton of stories to tell. A lot of them are pretty good at telling those stories, too.
So why not use some those stories in the school yearbook?
The stories kids tell in the yearbook are sure to bring a smile to everyone's faces.
Young kids might not have the technical tools to write for the New York Times, but they have an innocent voice and they're honest. They can tell a story from a perspective to which their peers relate and adults find endearing. There's a reason that the Bill Cosby show, "Kids Say The Darndest Things," was so popular – because it's true: kids say things that most of us never expect to hear and we love it. Parents especially love it and will be thrilled to be able to flip through all the stories in their second grader's yearbook.
Give your student creative writing prompts and exercises to capture their unique voice in the school yearbook.
First, decide if you want the yearbook classroom assignments to be mandatory or voluntary. If you want all of the students in the school to participate, you'll have to go around to all of the teachers and ask them if they would be able to work in a writing assignment based on your chosen topic for the students to hand in by a specific date. As a voluntary project, you ask teachers to give each of the students a yearbook handout that will explain the details of what you're looking for and lets them know that their story could potentially end up published in the school yearbook for all of their friends to read.
A mandatory writing assignment works because you will receive a large amount of submissions from which you will be able to take your pick. The downside to this method is that you'll need to be able to get participation from as many teachers as possible and you may be overwhelmed with the volume of submissions you receive.
A voluntary writing assignment is also great because you'll have fewer submissions to sort through, taking up less of your time. Fewer applicants also means fewer hurt feelings of anyone who doesn't get their story put in the yearbook. The downside to voluntary is that you'll have to stay on top of any student who is doing it and get them to stick to the deadlines.
The choice is yours based on what works best for your needs.
There's a story to be found in everything. Ask and the students will give you theirs.
Selecting the topic (or topics, if you will be using multiple submissions) is important, especially for an elementary school yearbook. Not only will it help students streamline their ideas, but you will be able to mold the stories around the theme of the yearbook.
Have your students written interesting stories that you know would make great yearbook copy? Tell us about them in the comments. We'd love to hear them!

Diagnosis Turns Complicated With SARS Virus Patent
by Dr. Enozia Vakil on May 24, 2013 at 9:00 PM
The news SARS-like virus, which claimed the lives of 22 people worldwide in less than a year, is now patented by foreign drug companies, thereby slowing down the diagnosis process.
"We are still struggling with diagnostics and the reason is that the virus was patented by scientists and is not allowed to be used for investigations by other scientists," said Saudi Deputy Health Minister Ziad Memish.
He told diplomats gathered in Geneva for the World Health Assembly, the UN health agency's decision-making body, that the coronavirus that first emerged last June had been "sent out of the country."
"It was patented, and contracts were signed with vaccine companies and anti-viral drug companies" which now need to give their approval every time another lab wants to use the virus, he said.
"I think strongly that the delay in the development of .... diagnostic procedures is related to the patenting of the virus," Memish said.
WHO chief Margaret Chan expressed outrage at the information.
"Why would your scientists send specimens out to other laboratories on a bilateral manner and allow other people to take intellectual property right on new disease?" she asked.
"Any new disease is full of uncertainty," she said, urging the WHO's 194 member states to only share "viruses and specimens with WHO collaborating centres, ... not in a bilateral manner."
"I will follow it up. I will look at the legal implications together with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. No IP (intellectual property) should stand in the way of you, the countries of the world, to protect your people," she told the delegates to thundering applause.
So far, there have been 44 lab-confirmed cases worldwide of the virus which until now has been known as the novel coronavirus, or nCoV-EMC, but which this week was redubbed the Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (MERS CoV).
Saudi Arabia by far counts the most cases, with 30 confirmed infections and 17 fatalities, while cases have also been detected in Jordan, Qatar, Tunisia, the United Arab Emirates, Germany, Britain and France.
The virus is a cousin of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS), which triggered a scare 10 years ago when it erupted in east Asia, leaping to humans from animal hosts and eventually killing some 800 people.
Like SARS, the new virus appears to cause an infection deep in the lungs, with patients suffering from a temperature, cough and breathing difficulty, but it differs from SARS in that it also causes rapid kidney failure.
Memish stressed Thursday that a lot of uncertainty remains around how the virus spreads and what symptoms to look for, pointing out that some patients have instead of respiratory difficulties shown signs like diarrhoea and vomiting.
He also said diagnoses were problematic and in some cases tests needed to be performed two or even three times.

Dark Souls III will hit 60fps on PCs
The Dark Souls series has been a hit with fans across Xbox, PlayStation, and PC. On the latter, though, the relationship has been one of troubled ports, defunct game services, and game-changing fan mods. Now it seems that at least the bad ports part might be a thing of the past.
Dark Souls III won't be locked to a particular frame rate as it has been in the past, according to the official Dark Souls Twitter.
Forget what you've heard. #DarkSouls3 will run at 60 FPS on PC! https://t.co/h8O21GTxR8
— Dark Souls (@DarkSoulsGame) March 10, 2016
Dark Souls II could run at 60 frames per second, but it had a weird side effect. It turns out that weapon durability was influenced by frame rate. With a doubled frame rate, your weapons spent twice as many frames inside an enemy and would thus deteriorate twice as fast. That's the kind of weird mechanical workaround that works fine on consoles, but will show up glaringly on PCs.
This time around, it sounds like they're taking that sort of thing into account and providing a game PC gamers can be proud of – we hope.
We'll see when Dark Souls III hits the US on April 12.

In just three years, the brilliant, magnetic vet, Professor Noel Fitzpatrick, has made 11 - that's right, 11! - series for Channel 4. That adds up to an eye-watering 70 hours of television.
He has been an inspiration to millions right across the globe. Since Noel's show has been on air, applications to veterinary schools have gone through the roof. Not for nothing is he known as The Supervet.
The terrific news is that now you can see The Supervet in the flesh and observe his miraculous work first-hand. Noel is embarking on his first-ever live tour – called "Welcome to My World" – and it is coming to an arena near you very soon. But you are advised to book your tickets for one of his 21 dates very soon as they are already flying off the shelves.
Accompanied by a host of vivid songs and footage bringing his astonishing story to life, Noel takes audiences on a journey.
The centrepiece of the "Welcome to My World" tour, which begins at Venue in Hull on 27 September, is a stunning "Bionic Bunker" which Noel has had specially constructed for the show. Inside the bunker he intends to reveal, for the very first time, the secrets behind many of the inventions that have audiences riveted to his TV show.
This will provide a deeply immersive experience, employing state of the art technology to project Noel into a virtual reality operating theatre where for the very first time we can explore the inspirations behind Noel's medical miracles.
In this way, he will be able to demonstrate his ground-breaking veterinary techniques to the audience. He will show how the pioneering work he has spearheaded with bionics and regeneration is suddenly making everything possible in medicine, sometimes in animals long before we can have that same treatment in humans.
"Welcome to My World" will be an unforgettable night: a Supershow from The Supervet.
The morning I meet Noel to discuss the show in a central London hotel, he has come straight from an all-night operation to save a very sick dog. Ever the innovator, he had utilised a titanium shell inspired by a beer barrel to replace the dog's femur bone for a hip replacement. Such an experience would total a lesser person, but he is fresh as a daisy. His energy is a wonder to behold.
You will no doubt be delighted to learn that the Irishman is just as mesmerising off screen as he is on it. He possesses an infectious lust for life and can be summed up by all those adjectives beginning with C: charismatic, compelling, captivating, comic and charming. He is a riveting force of nature.
The Supervet goes on to laugh that "Welcome to My World" will also include some surprising revelations and photos from his little-known past. He will disclose, for instance, that he went to drama school and once played a vet in a popular TV series.
He adds that, "Audiences will also see how I was beyond resplendent as a knitwear model wearing a very fine sweater to make the money to get me through school." Can't wait!
"Welcome to My World" will open with Noel's first memories of wanting to become a vet. He recalls with great clarity the occasion when as an 11 year old boy he went out to check the sheep on the family farm at two in the morning.
Before he has to dash off to perform another life-saving operation, I ask Noel if he ever considered another title for the show. "Initially,' he reveals, "I wanted to call it 'Love, Hope and Redemption'.

In 2015, the production of natural gas in the US reached self-sufficiency levels (99% consumption). Innovation in hydraulic fracturing on shale formation, began in the 1980s and 90s when Mitchell Energy was experimenting a new method of fracturing in the Barnett Shale, near Bend Arch–Fort Worth Basin.
Although Native Americans found the oil much before the European explorers, the DeSoto expedition in 1543 records the first use of crude oil. During the latter half of the 19th century, drilling oil in Texas was sporadic, but the 1901 discovery of oil well at Spindletop, transformed the Texas and US Economies. The one well contributed 94% of the state's oil production needs, bringing down the cost to 3 cents a barrel.

The 2010-2014 period added 1 in 7 Texan jobs in the Energy sector. With the gas prices dropping steeply, from $100 to below $50 a barrel, the bubble burst, and the state started losing 90,000+ jobs in the sector, after a 3.9% growth in the economy from 2010 to 2015. Houston was affected the most.
The Nov 2016 discovery of the 20 billion barrels of oil in the Wolfcamp shale is one of the largest ever recorded that might revive the economy of Texas in the future, given OPEC's decision to cut down production after 8 years of stalemate. The prices slowly but steadily have crossed the $50 mark on Feb 2017. Among the world's top 50 Oil & Gas companies, Exxon Mobiles feature in the top five list.


New fossils of an ancient primate found in the Amazon may be the first monkey to have traveled from Africa across the Atlantic Ocean to South America.
The fossils suggest that monkeys first arrived in South America nearly 10 million years earlier than previously thought.
Scientists believe the first primates traveled to South America, which was once an isolated island before it joined to North America three million years ago, from Africa on natural rafts that drifted across the Atlantic ocean.
The two groups of primates then evolved separately to create distinct families of primates.
However, evidence for when this epic journey occurred has been patchy and the oldest fossil of a monkey found in the New World was 26 million years old found in Bolivia.
A new fossil has the potential to force anthropologists to rewrite the evolutionary history of how our early ancestors first began walking upright on two legs.
For decades scientists have believed that our upright posture evolved in a common ancestor shared with the great apes including chimpanzees, gorillas and orangutans around 15 million years ago.
This led to the broad torsos and mobile forelimbs that appear all great apes - known as the orthograde body plan.
But a 12.3 million year old fossilised hipbone belonging a prehistoric ape named Sivapithecus indicus discovered in modern Pakistan, is challenging this belief.
Fossilised skull fragments have suggested it had the facial features similar to modern orangutans and scientists assumed it would also have an ape-like body plan.
However, the new hipbone has revealed that these creatures had a narrow torso that more resembles those of monkeys.
This suggests that Sivapithecus may have had both ape-like and monkey-like features, and has left researchers baffled about how it fits into the evolutionary tree.
But now fossilised teeth, found on a riverbank in a remote part of the Amazon in Peru, that have been dated at 36 million years old suggest the crossing from Africa may have occurred far earlier.
The teeth bear little resemblance to those from other species found in South America, but instead are more similar to teeth from African primates at the time.
This suggests that the fossils may belong to one of the first primates to make the crossing from Africa.
Researchers from the Museum of Natural Sciences in La Plata, Argentina, and the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles have named the new species of monkey Perupithecus ucayaliensis.
Its name is derived from the country where the fossil was found - Peru - and the Greek name for monkey, pithecus. Ucaylainesis is named the area of Peru where it was sound - Santa Roasa in the Ucayali Department.
Mariano Bond, the palaeontologist who led the study of the fossils at the Museum of Natural Sciences in La Plata, said the animal would have been a small monkey with a body only around 10 inches long.
Writing in the journal Nature, Mr Bond said: 'Perupithecus ucayaliensis was a small primate, comparable in size to the tamarins Callimico and some species of Saguinus.
The scientists believe that Perupithecus may be most closely related to an extinct primate called Talahpithecus, which lived around 38-39 million years ago in what is now Libya.
They found one complete and two incomplete upper molars that were dug up from a river bed during a dry period in Santa Rosa, eastern Peru.
New World monkeys are typically distinguished from their counterparts in Africa and Asia by their flat noses and relatively small size.
There are around 150 species of New World monkeys - also called Platyrrhini which means 'flat nose' - living in Central and South America. These include capuchins, marmosets and tamarins.
It is thought that they originally arrived in South America after crossing the Atlantic Ocean on natural rafts made of vegetation along with other mammals like rodents.
Until the new fossils were found, rodents were thought to have arrived on the continent long before primates but the new discovery means they arrived at roughly the same time.
Writing in Nature, Mr Bond and his colleagues said: 'Numerous studies have focused on the possibility of primates crossing the Atlantic to reach South America from Africa.
'A similar means of arrival in South America has often been proposed for the hystricognath rodents, the dispersal of amphisbaenian and gekkotan lizards.
Dr Kenneth Campbell, from the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles, added it had taken years of searching before the new fossils had been found.
He said: 'Fossils are scarce and limited to only a few exposed banks along rivers during the dry seasons.


Lifetime Network kicked off Sunday's TCA presentation with an announcement from Rob Sharenow, president of programming at A+E Network, saying they have 78% female directors. The industry is averaging 17%.
The network introduced a panel featuring female actors-directors including Kim Raver, Alyssa Milano, Monika Mitchell, Erika Christensen, Janice Cooke, Ginnifer Goodwin, Angela Fairley, Rhonda Baraka, Tiffany Hines, and Claire Scanlon, who discussed the importance of reaching a minimum 50/50 gender equity by 2020.
By working towards equality in Hollywood, the question as to whether male characters will suffer got a chuckle from the panel.
"I think female directors take that into consideration more than maybe a male director would," Milano, who stars in Jane Green's Tempting Fate, said. "I know that Kim was very adamant about making sure that all the characters were equally as developed.
Even with the growth in women directors in the industry, there's still a lack of females DPs that needs to be addressed in both film and television.
Christensen, who stars in To Have And To Hold, was surprised in learning that she naturally felt more comfortable around females on set. The panel agreed with those sentiments across the board.

This verse-by-verse commentary presents the Gospel of Matthew as a counter-narrative that shapes the group of Jesus's followers as an alternative community able to resist the dominant authorities both in Rome and in the synagogue. The Gospel anticipates the time when Jesus will return and establish God's reign over all, including the powers in Rome.
Breaking Matthew into five narrative blocks, Carter carefully considers historical, literary, cultural, and ecclesial factors as he explores the themes of marginality and power. A masterful introduction outlines these approaches and surveys other studies on Matthew.
Warren Carter is professor of New Testament at Brite Divinity School, Fort Worth, TX. He previously held the Pherigo Chair in New Testament at the Saint Paul School of Theology, Kansas City, MO. His other books include Seven Events that Shaped the New Testament World and The New Testament: Method and Meaning.
Intriguing, provocative, and sophisticated. I hope its display of creative and aggressive engagement of a wide range of ideas, methods and discourses, and its passionate, honest and self-reflexive argumentation will provde to be but the beginning of a powerful turn in biblical scholarship for the first part of the twenty-first century.

A: What are those packages to be autoremoved?
man apt-get
   autoremove
       autoremove is used to remove packages that were automatically
       installed to satisfy dependencies for other packages and are now no
       longer needed.

So it's totally safe to get rid of those unused packages.

Save for PlayStation VR, virtual reality is still prohibitively expensive for some consumers. While prices have dropped significantly in recent years, the latest and greatest VR headsets still retail for $400 or more. Surprisingly, we have not seen many VR deals for Black Friday 2018 so far, but HTC on Monday announced that it is giving buyers a chance to get the Vive Pro at a discount, along with cheaper subscriptions to the Viveport app store.
The most substantial deal from HTC comes in the form of a $200 price cut on the Vive Pro Full Kit, which includes a Vive Pro headset, two Steam VR Base Stations 2.0, two next-generation controllers, and a two-month subscription to Viveport. That price cut brings the total cost of the Vive Pro Full Kit down to $1,199.
If you don't need the entire collection of add-ons and accessories, HTC is also marking $100 off the Vive Pro HMD, bringing it down to a new all-time low of $699. If you want to know more about this VR headset, and why it costs so much more than the PlayStation VR or Oculus Rift, check out our review from April.
Any purchase of a VIVEPORT Subscription bundle comes with a free Fallout 4 VR Steam code. Plus, Arcade Saga is free for all VIVEPORT users starting 4 PM PST on November 22 'til November 23 at 11:59 PM PST.
If you're ready to shell out several hundred dollars for the best VR hardware and software on the market, you may not find better deals than this anywhere else over the Black Friday weekend.

Princeton University researchers have found that widespread use of autonomous vehicles (AVs) could either massively increase or drastically cut greenhouse gas emissions depending, in large part, on public policy.
"We need fuel economy standards to ensure the cars are clean, and policies to encourage ridesharing to reduce vehicle miles traveled," said Judi Greenwald, non-resident fellow at Princeton's Andlinger Center for Energy and the Environment and co-author of a Jan. 4 paper published in the journal Energy Policy.
By allowing passengers to work or relax en route, automated vehicles would greatly improve the experience of traveling in an automobile. But planning, management and carefully crafted regulations are essential to reducing vehicle emissions and avoiding additional miles traveled by the vehicles, specifically vehicles traveling with few passengers or without any passengers at all.
"Two big changes are coming — automation and mobility as a service," said Greenwald, who served as deputy director for climate, environment and energy efficiency in the Department of Energy during the Obama administration. "Depending on how they interact, and how clean the fuel is, it could really end up a lot better or worse off for the environment," said Greenwald, who is a Princeton engineering alumna.
Greenwald and co-author Alain Kornhauser, professor of operations research and financial engineering who has a Ph.D. in mechanical and aerospace engineering from Princeton, found that the best way to ensure a good outcome is to deploy AVs in managed fleets rather than as personal vehicles, and to implement rigorous fuel efficiency standards for the vehicles. Fleet managers have strong incentives to use the most efficient fuels and to minimize the amount of time on the road that cars spend with few or no passengers.
The authors conducted the study during Greenwald's tenure in spring 2018 as an inaugural Gerhard R. Andlinger Visiting Fellow in Energy and the Environment at the Andlinger Center. The program brings in seasoned professionals in energy and the environment to collaborate on research and enrich the center's education efforts. For the study, the authors examined a large body of earlier research by Kornhauser, with one study showing that a properly managed fleet, combined with public transit, could cut vehicle travel by 43 percent in New Jersey. They also pointed to the National Renewable Energy Laboratory 2016 report that showed that AVs could triple fuel use due to easier travel and an increase in empty vehicle miles traveled.
Greenwald said policy will play a big role in controlling which players are able to operate these vehicles and how. High barriers to market entry, such as expensive licenses similar to a commercial trucking license, could discourage individuals from buying autonomous vehicles. Regulations could also prohibit the technology from being sold to individuals, the report said.

The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD) advises that parents schedule a dental checkup for their children by the first year. Early dental care is essential for good oral health, and the first visit is an important one. Be sure to convey good aspects of dentistry to your child. You can help prepare your child for the visit by explaining that the dentist will look at their mouth and probably count their teeth. Avoid words that may suggest unpleasantness, such as drills or needles. Words like gentle and friendly will help quell any fears. At Far Hills Dental Care, we create a kid-friendly atmosphere and use simple words to explain procedures. Parents can even download our Dynamite Dental Fun Kit for their kids on our website. Our goal is to help children feel at ease on the first visit and subsequent ones.
Although the eruption of baby teeth varies, most primary teeth begin to arrive between the ages of six to 12 months. Most children will have a full set of 20 by the time they reach three years of age. Although the baby teeth are only in the mouth for a short period, taking care of them is important. Baby teeth reserve space for the permanent ones and aid in the development of clear speech. In addition, infection and decay in baby teeth can cause damage to permanent teeth developing underneath. At around four years of age, the facial and jaw bones of a child begin to grow. This natural growth process creates space between the primary teeth to provide the needed space for larger permanent teeth to emerge. Molars generally emerge between nine and 12 years of age. Permanent teeth continue to emerge up to age 21.
You can help your child develop healthy oral hygiene habits by sticking to a routine and making the process fun and engaging. Children should brush their teeth after breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and before bedtime. To make the experience enjoyable, colorful toothbrushes with Disney-like characters and yummy toothpastes will get the job done. Be sure to help your child develop good teeth brushing technique by leading by example. Flossing is also effective for good oral hygiene, and your dentist can advise when it's best to start.
A child's diet plays a large role in preventing cavities. It's best to avoid or limit sugary beverages and foods. Sugary foods turn into an acid that wears away a tooth's minerals. Over time, a cavity develops with the wearing away of the tooth's enamel. Children should visit the dentist twice a year for dental cleanings and checkups. Fluoride treatment and dental sealants are recommended to keep the teeth strong. Dental sealants seal the deep grooves and pits in a child's teeth and prevent decay from developing in those hard-to-reach back areas. During regular checkups, a dentist will inspect the dental sealant. If it is worn away, another application may be competed. By and large, dental sealants last for several years. With regular checkups, a healthy diet, and regular brushing, your child will be set on the path to a healthy smile and a lifetime of oral and overall health.
