In vivo digestibility of cereal-based diets supplemented with sunflower vs. rapeseed meal
14/05/2014 14/05/2014 by admin
M. Yossifov, L. Kozelov
Abstract. Two experiments were conducted to investigate effects of rapeseed meal (RSM) vs. sunflower meal (SFM) as a protein source at cereal-based isonitrigenous (at 16 % CP), iso-caloric at gross energy 18 kcal/kg and net (FUG=1) energy diets for fattening lambs. Four wethers (Gygay breed) were used to evaluate the diets' apparent total tract digestibility (dry matter (DM), organic matter (OM), crude protein (CP), ether extract (EE), crude fibres (CF), nitrogen free extractives (NFE) and ash) and coefficients (Cd) were used to calculate the diets' feeding value. Two diets were used: conrol diet (CD) with SFM and experimental diet (ED) with RSM. The results indicated that feeding RSM tended to increase Cd OM (p=0.1), Cd CP (p=0.4), Cd EE (p=0.5) and Cd NFE (p=0.1). The differences were significant at Cd DM (p<0.05), Cd CF (p<0.05) and Cd ash (p<0.001). According to the calculation analysis, diet supplementation with RSM benefits total digestible nutrients (TDN), raised energy values (gross energy, digestible energy and net energy) and improved protein feeding values (protein trully digestible in small intestines (PDI) and balance of protein in rumen (BPR)). Therefore, it's concluded that, substitution of SFM with RSM in cerealbased ruminant diets significantly (p<0.05) increased in vivo diet digestibility, raised (11 %) TDN and improved its energy and protein feeding value.
Biological fertility and milk yield in Bulgarian Dairy Synthetic Population sheep according to breeding line
N. Stancheva, I. Dimitrova, S. Georgieva
Abstract. The aim of the study is to determine the parameters of the biological fertility and milk production of sheep breed Dairy Synthetic Population from herd of the Agricultural Institute, Shumen. The survey covers 851 ewes born in the period 2004 – 2008. Biological fertility of ewes is dependent on the order of lambing, and is the lowest on the 1st (1.24) and the highest on the 3rd lamb (1.52). In animals from line 51 (a cross breed with Chios) it is the highest on 2.5 years old –1.56, on 3.5 years old – 1.67, on 4.5 years old – 1.90, as fertility of the sheep of the leading pure-bred lines is 1.27, 1.42 and 1.49. The average milk yield for standard 120-day milking period of sheep in the flock is the highest in animals from line 51 and on the 1st lactation it is by 23.7% and on the 2nd by 15.07% higher than in pure-bred lines. The value of the heritability (h2) of the studied traits is low to medium.
Blood parameters in yearling sheep fed Paulownia (Paulownia spp.) leaves
I. Varlyakov, V. Radev, T. Slavov, G. Ganchev
Abstract. A physiological experiment was conducted with three yearling sheep, Stara Zagora x Pleven Blackhead crosses, to establish the effect of feeding Paulownia elongatа leaves on some blood parameters. The trial consisted of two periods: control and experimental. During the control period, yearling sheep were fed a ration of 1 kg barley and 1 kg meadow hay, and during the experimental period – dried Paulownia elongatа leaves. Blood samples were collected from v. jugularis externa before feeding and 2.5 hours after feeding during both periods after allowing 10-day adaptation to the respective diet. The studied parameters were erythrocyte counts, leukocyte counts, blood glucose, total protein, albumin and globulins. The intake of Paulownia leaves resulted in statistically significant reduction in erythrocyte (p<0.05) and leukocyte counts (p<0.001). This was most pronounced in the postprandial hours. Paulownia leaves also provoked increased total serum protein concentrations on the account of both higher albumin and globulins. The albumin/globulin ratio was 0.29 regardless of the type of diet or the time of sampling – prior to or after feeding.
Metabolic and enzymatic profile of sheep fed on forage treated with the synthetic pyrethroid Supersect 10 EC
R. Ivanova
Abstract. Most of the small ruminant flocks on the Balkan Peninsula are bred on pasture. Thus the animals are endangered to graze treated alfalfa, without observing quarantine. The instability of the pyrethroid insecticides in rumen alkaline pH of the sheep is the reason for its absorption as early as in the upper part of the digestive tract and hence a better-expressed subtoxicosis appeared. Following the technological instruction given by the producer of the insecticide, the alfalfa field plots were treated with Supersect 10 EC. After seven days quarantine, the alfalfa was mowed, dried and added to the ration of the tested animals. After 20 days feeding of the animals, a decrease in the amount of the total lipids was established, without any changes of the blood glucose and total protein values. As regards the enzymatic profile of sheep fed on alfalfa treated with Supersect 10 EC, a significant increase of the activities of ASAT, LDH, MAO and ChE was reported. Based on the data obtained, we could conclude that when sheep was fed on alfalfa treated with Supersect 10 EC, a strong change in the enzymatic profile was observed. There were not significant changes in hepatocyte according to De Rites but the metabolic strain in the organism was suppressed as compared to that of the control animals
The evolution and current situation of sheep breeding in Romania
I. Răducuţă
Abstract. After the integration of our country within the EU have occurred major changes in many areas of activity and including in the sheep breeding sector. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the evolution and situation of sheep breeding sector in Romania in relation with the sheep livestock, the number and size of sheep exploitations and sheep productions. To achieve these objectives we have studied the official statistical data, we calculated the percentage difference between the reference years and we interpreted data obtained. The results showed that the sheep livestock has increasing with 15.9% in 2010 compared with 2002 and with 10.3% compared with 2006. In present 0.69% from the sheep livestock are reared organically. In terms of number and size of sheep exploitations, the results showed that in the year 2010 there were 271,266 exploitations of sheep of which 63.9% are individual exploitations that have an average number of 4.18 heads sheep per unit and which hold these animals exclusively for self-consumption of family and only 7.5% of total exploitations have more than 100 heads, as average size of sheep farms existing in the EU. However, compared with the existing situation in 2002, the number of exploitations is 2.4 times lower in the year 2010, especially based on decreasing of small exploitations respectively those which are framed in class less than 10 heads. The study shows also that meat production and milk production in particular have increased significantly over the period considered, while the wool production decreased slightly.
Polymorphism of the C3 component of the complement system and its impact on serum lysozyme concentrations and complement activity
Ts. Koynarski, L. Sotirov
Abstract. The aim of the investigation was to determine the influence of the C3 component of the complement system on the levels of blood serum lysozyme and the alternative pathway of complement activity (APCA) in sheep. The experiment was carried out with sheep and rams belonging to nine sheep breeds – Mouton Charollais, Ile de France, Trakia Merino, Dairy crosses, White Maritsa, Patch-faced Maritsa, Karnobat, Pleven Blackhead and Local Stara Zagora. For more accurate results we tested equal number of animals from each breed (48), the total number of samples was 432. The two allelic genes (C3S and C3F) formed nine C3 genotypes–SS, SS1, FF, FS, FS5, FS7, FS10, FF1, and F1F1 with different prevalence between the breeds. It was found out that the C3 genotypes do not impact significantly the levels of serum lysozyme concentrations and APCA, therefore indirect selection after this gene marker will not improve the levels of innate immune response in sheep.
Freezing of day 5 and 6 sheep and goat embryos of Greek breeds
A. Pampukidou, M. Avdi, R. Ivanova, T. Alifakiotis
Abstract. The aim of the present study was to investigate cryopreservation at day-5 and 6 of sheep embryos of Chios breed and goat embryos from indigenous Greek breed by the conventional one- or multi-step methods using glycerol and sucrose. Chios sheep and indigenous goats were super ovulated using FSH-P and embryos collected surgically five or six days after mating. Thirty two day-5 and 46 day-6 sheep embryos were frozen either by the one-step or multi-step method and stored in liquid nitrogen. Thirty five and 42 goat embryos were frozen by one-step or multi-step method, correspondingly. From these stock 48 sheep embryos and 56 goat embryos were thawed and transferred into 24 ewe and 28 goat recipients. None of the ewes that received one-step frozen embryos either of day-5 or day-6 lambed. From the recipients of multi-step sheep embryos 2 lambs /17%/ from day-5 and 6 lambs /50%/ from day-6 embryos were obtained. The goats that received one-step frozen embryos delivered 4 kids (25%) from day-5 and 4 kids (33%) from day-6 embryos and from multi-step goat embryos were obtained 4 kids (33%) from day-5 and 8 kids (50%) from day-6 embryos. It is concluded that day-6 multi-step frozen embryos, either of sheep or goats, produce more viable offspring after transfer in suitable recipients.
Comparative studies on some parameters of innate resistance and metabolic profile of sheep and their offspring depending on the ration
B. Bivolarski, Е. Vachkova, S. Laleva, P. Slavova, I. Ivanov
Abstract: Comparative studies were carried out to evaluate the non-specific resistance and some metabolic profile parameters in Mouton Charollais sheep (n=16) and their offspring (n=10) depending on diet type. It was found out that the compound feed type had various effects on studied parameters. Blood lipids and T increased statistically significantly (p<0.05) in sheep. In offspring, considerable changes were observed in blood urea, APCA (p<0.05), body weight and 3 daily weight gain (p<0.01). There were no significant changes in the other parameters tested (lysozyme, total protein, γ-GT and T ).
Study of milk composition in sheep of Pleven black head breed
D. Panayotov, T. Iliev, N. Naydenova, D. Pamukova, M. Simeonov
Abstract. The aim of the study was to investigate somatic cell count and milk composition from Pleven Black head breed of sheep. A total of 96 ewes on first lactation were used belonging to the flock of the village of Komarevo, Pleven district. The studied animals – daughters of six rams from 2 lines, were fed year round in a barn (November-March) and pasture period (April-October). A total of 384 individual milk samples were taken at four selection controls. The milk composition – fat, protein, casei, lactose, solids-non-fat and dry matter was established by Milko-Skan 104 (A/S Foss Elektric, Denmark). The total number of the somatic cells was established by an Ekoscope SCC automated system (Bulteh 2000, Stara Zagora, Bulgaria). The results of this investigation showed that the studied animals had very good milk quality indices. The milk of line 522 animals had significantly higher dry matter, solids-non-fat, fat, protein, casein and lactose content in comparison to those of line 32. For all studied milk indicators the daughters of ram No.33 in line 32 showed the highest average values whereas those of ram No.321 belonging to the same line had the lowest. The average somatic cell count of the milk in the studied animals was very low – 66 254 cells/ml. Minimum variation was established in respect to average SCC values of the milk in both lines but very large between the individual rams.
Complement activity in Bulgarian local sheep related to season and breed
The studies were performed in 2008 on 308 sheep at the age of 2-4 years. Sheep from the following breeds were used: Karakachan, Tsigay, Replyan, Panagyurishte, Copper-red Shoumen, Karnobat, Pleven Blackhead, White Maritsa, Patch-faced Maritsa, Stara Zagora and Romanov. During the spring and summer, 6 sheep from each breed were used and during the summer – 20. The activity of the alternative pathway of complement activation was assayed by the method of Sotirov (1991). During the spring, the highest blood complement concentrations were determined in Panagyurishte (215,24 ± 5,22), White Maritsa (206,87 ± 13,12) and Copper-red Shoumen breeds (201,15 ± 8,88), and the lowest in Romanov (160,23 ± 7,44) and Pleven Blackhead breed – 164,09 ± 12,86 (р < 0,01). The highest summer complement levels were measured in Panagyurishte breed (218,801 ± 3,285 СН50), аnd the lowest – in Tsigay breed (167,144 ± 5,233 СН50) (р < 0,01). During the autumn, Karakachan breed were with the highest complement concentrations (205,79 ± 13,28), whereas Pleven Blackhead – with the lowest – 169,04 ± 10,10 (р < 0,01). Totally for all sheep studied, the average APCA concentrations were 190,87 ± 5,87 during the spring, 190,028 ± 8,284 СН50 during the summer and 191,24 ± 8,47 during the winter.

My favorite Item of the week!
Hello and ciao, everyone! I hope all of you are enjoying these beautiful, sunny days of summer.
As I mentioned on my previous post, throughout this month, I will be sharing and reviewing my favorite "item of the week" with my followers.
For this week, I have chosen the All Nighter Long-Lasting Makeup Setting Spray from Urban Decay. Let's give this product's makers a high five!
Until recently, I had never even owned a setting spray. I'd seen them around, but I had never purchased one. As I was flipping through a fashion and beauty magazine at Barnes & Noble, I learned a few things on how to get makeup to last longer, and still look beautiful, all day long during these hot summers months.
This happens to all of us all the time: it's the middle of the day, and you notice that your makeup already needs a touch-up. I found myself in that situation, and I figured I would give this product a try. The first time I applied it, I felt like I was at a spa! Immediately, my skin looked hydrated and smooth. I was glowing!
This product is suitable for all skin types. It is paraben free, and it is enriched with great ingredients that are beneficial for our skin. It helps prevent my makeup from fading away in the heat and humidity of our lovely summer season. My skin gets super dry in the T-Zone area, and this makeup setting spray helps reduce the flaky skin and those tiny dry lines.
Shortly after you spray, you feel that beautiful mist touch your skin perfectly, without having the sensation that you are splashing water on your face.
To apply this makeup setting spray, hold the spray six to eight inches from your face. Spray by using an X and T-shaped motion. Let it sit for a minute, then use your hands to gently pat your cheeks, the area under your eyes, and your forehead.
I give this product 4.5 out of 5 stars. I will definitely buy this product again. The bottom line is this product works. Try it out!
Hello, hello! I hope everyone is having a great weekend! I have been busy enjoying the summer, and finalizing my latest article: "How Can We Live Life at a Slower Pace?" In the article, I share how we can stay Zen in a stressed-out society. Also, Corpus Christi psychologist Dennis Ramos, discusses the importance of daily meditation. Mr. Ramos has been kind enough to provide his expertise for several of my articles. The feeling of happiness and accomplishment I feel when I read the email saying my piece was published will never get old, never!
"Congratulations — your story, What is SAD?, is live on Thrive Journal!
Something New is Happening on the Blog!
I would like to announce some upcoming changes with this blog. Coming soon, I will choose an item that has caught my attention, and write a full review on it. The item can be anything: makeup, clothing, etc. In the past, I would review all the items from my monthly Ipsy bag in one blog post. This time, I would like to focus my attention on one item at a time.
I have already purchased some new things, and let you know my thoughts on it. I'm so excited!
Cooking is my passion! Every week, I like to post my favorite meals and desserts that I prepare for my family on my blog. All these recipes will be available in the cookbook I am writing.
Working on projects and challenging myself each day makes me happy. When I was an educator, I would always tell students to learn something new every day.
Yes, in case you are wondering, I miss the classroom.
Our 1-year anniversary of adopting Claudio from the Humane Society will be on August 12th.
So many dogs need homes. If you are considering a new puppy, or even an older dog, be sure to visit the shelter.
This little guy has brought so much joy into our lives. He has learned how to jump on our couch and bed. When he is tired, he makes the cutest little sounds. Almost a year later, nothing brings me more joy than chasing Claudio around the house. He is still in the puppy stage, so he tries to eat everything on the floor and in the yard.
I know how fast time goes by in this life, so I pick every opportunity during my free time to play and cuddle with him. Puppies are just like children in that they need lots of love and attention.
I hope you all have a fantastic weekend. I will be back next week with my "Pick of the Week." Stay tuned!
We are all unique and beautiful human beings.
Hello, my friends! Things have been super busy in my neck of the woods. I'm currently finishing up an article, and I'm also working on a project that I had set aside. Juggling too many things is difficult. As soon as I can, I will share more details with you all.
Are you guys getting ready for the 4th of July? I love having friends over for BBQ. I have already ordered a cute shirt that is appropriate for the holiday, with the words "This girl loves the USA and Foo Fighters" on the front. I will post a few pictures on my blog as soon as I receive that shirt. Come on, UPS!
We spent this Saturday in the country with our friends Terry and Kaye. We just love to go out there. Ahhh, country living: fresh air, wide-open spaces, and a slower, calmer life, can lower anyone's blood pressure. What's not to love? The view from the swing where I was sitting was utterly breathtaking.
It was a perfect day! Everyone brought delicious food. Cooking has always been one of my hobbies.
Cooking with Nunzia! Here are some of our favorite dishes and desserts I made this past week.
We all know that a good mascara can make a huge difference in your appearance. It brings a lot of attention to your eyes. I am so picky when it comes to mascara. I often find myself using multiple products to achieve the look that I have in mind.
I have been using this for about a week now, and it is the bomb. I swiped two coats onto my lashes and boom, I was in love with it. I knew immediately that I had found what I was looking for for a very long time. Yes, I'm sticking to this one, ladies!
I love that the brush is big enough to separate every eyelash, giving me that beautiful, voluminous look. It really holds the curls all day. Last week, I went for a run at my health club, and I noticed it did not smudge. The eyelashes looked fresh without flaking. I also noticed that it rinsed off easily without a fuss.
This product really makes the lashes look longer and fuller without looking clumpy. I'm totally in love with it. I give it a 4.5 out of 5 stars.
Memories from last year in Italy! This is my sister's house!
This past week, Claudio learned how to jump on the couch and all the high beds we have in the house.
Also, when he is hungry or frustrated, Claudio gets very vocal, and will not stop until we understand what he is asking for.
Okay, we will chat soon on my next update.

MOVIE HISO CATE
Archived from the original PDF on 18 December Around the World in 80 Days. All of these types of dramas are somewhat similarly themed, and they range from cute and lighthearted accounts, to practical and more realistic versions, on up to darker and more devious takes, on the important issues kids face these days. Those who have worked with Derbez say his sincerity and earnestness are why his comedy connects with audiences. Moreno Laparade won the lawsuit twice, [13] but Moreno Ivanova eventually triumphed after two appeals. With so many films in a single year, you may suspect that Sono was just rushing from one film to the other, but you sure can't tell from the films themselves. Moreno's life is the subject of the biographical film Cantinflas , directed by Sebastian del Amo. On August 12, , the Google Doodle paid homage to Cantinflas on his th birth anniversary.
As each story unfolds, Nanno punishes the outright wicked by whatever means necessary, while she tempts other kids in order to test their morals. The only way to enjoy The Whispering Star is to invest in Sono's journey and hope for the best. Cantinflas confirmed it in , in his last television interview. Cantinflas' films, to this day, still generate revenue for Columbia Pictures. Follow the lives of nine Thai secondary school students and their friends as they try to find their way through the ups and downs of adolescence. Reachi established Posa Films in with two partners: The show was targeted for children and was intended to be educational. It's a quick and efficient morality tale in which everyone involved learns something about themselves and life; sometimes though, you learn these lessons the hard way.
There is a different director for most every episode however, and every episode contains an entirely new cast with the exception of the central character. Giso teatro movement was an important huso of the cultural renaissance that was the social counterpart of the political movement for the civil rights of Mexican Americans. Maybe it's because the film is structured like one big exploratory voyage, only sparingly revealing bits and pieces along the way, but leaving cahe surprises untouched feels like the right thing to do.
On 2 June the eight-year battle was resolved with Columbia retaining ownership over the 34 disputed films. Moreno's life is the subject of the biographical film Cantinflasdirected by Sebastian del Amo. The Whispering Star isn't what you'd call a very narrative-driven feature, even so revealing anything about the plot details feels like a major spoiler to me.

Aside from the lead, there's a ton of other young actors and actresses involved across the various episodes, and the vast majority of them perform quite well in their assigned roles.

At the same time, there was another legal battle between Columbia Pictures and Moreno Ivanova over control of these films. In his biography of the comic, scholar of Mexican culture Jeffrey M. With so many films in a single year, you may suspect that Sono was just rushing from one film to the other, but you sure movi tell from the films themselves. Cinema of the United States.
It's definitely not one of the most original color schemes, but the contrast is rich, the finish is extremely clean and the lighting is superb. Nobody is innocent, and Nanno makes sure there are no happy endings.
Cantinflas' films, to this day, still generate revenue for Columbia Pictures. Retrieved 29 August It's never made clear who, or rather what, Nanno actually is. Don Quijote cabalga de nuevo.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Once Nanno accomplishes her goals at a given school, it's on the next, then repeat this process until the series is over. From a tin can stuck underneath someone's boot to the low hum of the spaceship or the high-pitched, child-like voice of the ship's AI, there are always some stand-out sound bytes that add to the hhiso unique rhythm.

Cantinflas' style and the content of his films have led scholars to conclude that he influenced the many teatros that spread the message of the Chicano Movement cqte the ss in the United States, the most important of which was El Teatro Campesino. Visually it's by far one of the most accomplished films Sono directed so far. The riddle of Cantinflas: The rhetoric of cantinflismo facilitated this fluidity.
Although Cantinflas never achieved the same success in the United States as in Mexico, he was honored with a motion pictures star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame at Hollywood Boulevard. He played el peladoan impoverished Everyman, with hopes to succeed. Don't expect any huge production values or special effects though; Asian TV productions typically have limited budgets, but as is usually the case, they frequently make up for it with better storytelling.
University of New Mexico. Gregorio Lukeexecutive director of the Museum of Latin American Art said, "To understand Cantinflas is to understand what happened in Mexico during the last century". It is indeed a show about the life of teens and their modern problems, but it's too down and dirty for mainstream Hollywood to make.

This Week in Pittsburgh Pirates History - June 15-21
This week in Pittsburgh Pirates history -
1958 Identical twins are split up by the Pirates when Eddie O'Brien stays with Pittsburgh, but his brother Johnny, along with third baseman Gene Freese, is traded to the Cardinals for infielder Dick Schofield.
1976 Massive flooding in the Houston metropolitan area prevents the umpiring crew from reaching the Astrodome and causes the first 'rain out' in the history of the enclosed ballpark. After the game is called off, the Pirates and Astros players, who had arrived early for practice, shared their clubhouse meal on the field with the few die-hard fans who braved the elements hoping to see a game.
1998 The Phillies score seven runs in the the bottom of the ninth in an amazing 8-7 come-from-behind win over the stunned Pirates. Mike Lieberthal's two-out, three-run blast off Rich Loiselle is the final blow that sinks the Bucs.
Paul Waner
1942 Paul Waner singles off Pirate Rip Sewell to collect his 3000th hit. The Braves outfielder becomes the seventh major leaguer to accomplish this feat and the first to do it since 1925.
1972 At Three Rivers Stadium, Roberto Clemente hits a two-run homer in the bottom of the eighth inning to become the Pirates all-time RBI leader. The Pittsburgh right fielder's three RBIs in the 13-3 drubbing of the Dodgers gives the future Hall of Famer a total of 1,274 runs batted in for the Bucs.
2010 The Pirates fire a mascot who participates in the in-game pierogi race due to the criticism of the team's upper management posted on his Facebook page. The 24-year old, who will be reinstated by Pittsburgh, is offered a position by the Washington Wild Things of the Frontier League, an independent baseball organization, to become one of its racing hot dogs.
Max Carey
1925 At Forbes Field, Max Carey becomes the first switch-hitter to hit for the cycle. The Pirate outfielder's performance helps Pittsburgh to bash Brooklyn, 21-5.
1982 At Three Rivers Stadium, in a 3-1 loss to the Pirates, Pete Rose becomes the fifth major leaguer to appear in 3000 games. The Phillies first baseman, playing in his 523rd consecutive contest, joins Ty Cobb' Stan Musial' Hank Aaron' and Carl Yastrzemski as one of only five players to reach the milestone.

Q: Is it ok to shift pipe logic to ngrx reducer? I'm new to ngrx-store, I just wanted to know whether is it OK to write logic(e.g search logic) inside store reducer instead of pipe itself OR rather just keep them separate, because pipe causes application state change.
Below is the small example code snippet. Say suppose, I want to search/filter todo list on the basis of user input string.
todo.pipe.ts
import { Pipe, PipeTransform } from '@angular/core';
import { Todo } from '../todo.model/todo.model';

@Pipe({
    name: 'searchPipe'
})
export class TodoSearchPipe implements PipeTransform{
    transform(values: Todo[], term: string){
        return values.filter(obj => obj.name.startsWith(term))
    }
}

and app.component.ts
import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { Store } from '@ngrx/store';
import { Observable } from 'rxjs/Observable';

import { Todo } from '../todo.model/todo.model';
import { TodoService } from '../todo.service/todo.service';
import { TodoSearchPipe } from '../todo.pipe/todo.pipe';

@Component({
    selector:'main-app',
    template: `

Todo List

                {{ todo.name }} - {{ todo.desc }}

        Search By Name: <input type='text' [(ngModel)] = 'userSearchInput'/>
    `
})
export class AppComponent implements OnInit{
    private $todoList:Observable<Todo[]>;
    private userSearchInput: string = "";

    constructor(private _store: Store<Number>, private _service: TodoService){}

    ngOnInit(){
        this.$todoList = this._store.select('todos');
    }
}

As in TodoSearchPipe the line values.filter(obj => obj.name.startsWith(term)) causes application state changes. What if we dispatch event from here for reducer and write this filter line there? Is it OK to do that, if yes how to achieve this?
The ngrx store code snippet goes here:
import { Action, ActionReducer } from '@ngrx/store';
import { Todo } from '../todo.model/todo.model';

export const todoStore: ActionReducer<Todo> = (state: Todo[] = [], action: Action) => {
    switch (action.type) {
        case "SET_LIST":return state = action.payload;
        case "FILTER_LIST": //????????
        default: return state;
    }
}

A: I would handle this in the store instead of a pipe as you are doing by saving the search term and the todos individually in the state. That way you can see in the store your list of todo's and your current search term (thus making debugging easier). You can then select from the store, combine these two pieces of data, and use them in your list.
Something like this.
app.component.ts:
    @Component({
        selector:'main-app',
        template:

Todo List

                    {{ todo.name }} - {{ todo.desc }}

            Search By Name: <input type='text' (keyup)="onkeyup($event.target.value)"/>
    })
    export class AppComponent implements OnInit{
        private $filteredList: Observable<Todo[]>;
        private userSearchInput: string = "";

        constructor(private _store: Store<Number>, private _service: TodoService){}

        ngOnInit(){
            this.$filteredList = this._store.select('todos').map(theState => {
                theState.todos.filter(todo => todo.contains(theState.searchTerm));
            });
        }

        onkeyup(val) {
            // dispatch the input's value to the store
            this.store.dispatch({type: 'INPUT_SEARCH', action: val);
        }
}

Reducer:
import { Action, ActionReducer } from '@ngrx/store';
import { Todo } from '../todo.model/todo.model';

const initialState: any = {
    todos: [],
    searchTerm: ''
}

export const todoStore: ActionReducer<Todo> = (state = initialState, action: Action) => {
    switch (action.type) {
        case "SET_LIST":
            return Object.assign({}, state, {
                todos: action.payload
            });
        case "INPUT_SEARCH":
            return Object.assign({}, state, {
                searchTerm: action.payload
            });
        default: return state;
    }
}

A: Jason's answer will work and you could do that.
But how do you display this filteredList somewhere else if needed ?
Imagine this "filter" is pretty huge, like ... 50~100 lines or even more. Will you copy it every time ?
You should rather use "selectors" : http://redux.js.org/docs/recipes/ComputingDerivedData.html
The idea is to keep your store untouched, with raw data and just set a property in your state with what you want to filter. (for example call it "search").
Then, you can build your selector like that :
function getMyComputedData() {
  return function(store: Store<IStore>) {
    store.select(state => state...) // whatever you want to filter
  }
}

And in your component just use it like that :
@Component({
  // ...
})
export class YourComponent {
  private computedData$: Observable<any>;

  constructor(private store: Store<IStore>) {
    this.computedData$ = this.store.let(getMyComputedData());
  }
}

The selector will be updated every time your store changes (ofc based on what you select in your selector) and you can use it wherever you need to.

You may want to take a look to :
- A working demo I made on Plunkr with Redux only to play with normalized data and selectors
- A full demo project I built with Angular (V2.x), angular/cli and ngrx : Pizza Sync
(the selector is located here and used in this view)

One of my favorite things to do in my travels is keep an eye out for microbreweries and awesome street food. Vancouver is the ultimate destination to sample the "best of the west" in Canadian microbrews.
There are literally countless options for brews and food in the city, so I did the investigative work for you (twist my arm). With the help and recommendations of my friends in Vancouver, I ate and drank my way through the city to put together The Ultimate Vancouver Brewery and Food Truck Guide!
Vancouver has countless breweries, making it the ultimate destination for craft and micro brew aficionados. While you might not get to every brewery during your stay in the city, here are some of the best breweries in Vancouver to wet your whistle!
Granville Island Brewing opened the doors to Canada's first microbrewery in 1984. With premium, natural and unpasteurized beer, GIB is an iconic brewery in Vancouver.
Family owned and operated, 33 Acres has become one of the most popular breweries in Vancouver. While they offer great ambiance, beer and food, they also bring in food trucks daily to serve up some convenient eats.
The public space at Brassneck, "The Growler Shop & Tasting Room," is designed to have patrons feel as though you are part of the brewing process. The brew house & cellar wrap around the tasting room & growler shop putting you in the very heart of the Brewery.
What to Order: Offerings vary seasonally, but grab a seat or a growler-to-go!
Tucked away in an industrial part of town, Parallel 49 features an array of rotating beer selections in a great tasting room. It's a popular spot that's almost always "hoppin" (pun intended)!
Despite the name, Urban Winery is a great place for not only wine, but beer and even cider. Locals love it for its awesome vibe, craft beer and delicious food.
Serving up tasty microbrews and locally sourced organic food, Main Street Brewery is a fast favorite. Main Street Brewing Co. also resides in one of Vancouver's few surviving industrial heritage buildings, the "Vancouver Breweries Garage" (1913), in the historic Brewery Creek district.
Postmark is another great brewery that offers a full-experience. In true West Coast fashion, you can grab a great beer, some delicious food and even some cute brewery-inspired swag.
For fresh local food handcrafted using local ingredients and Canada's largest selection of fresh local draft beer, Craft Beer Market is your spot!
As their website describes, Storm Brewing is a local craft brewery, unfashionably situated on gritty East Vancouver's Commercial Drive. Stop in for a brewery tour and, keep in mind, there's no food served here!
Strange Fellows Brewing offers "far from ordinary" beer inspired by the Old World, but brewed on the Canadian West Coast.
Vancouver is the ultimate city for food truck fare! Whether you're craving something sweet, salty or savory, here's a list of some of the best food trucks in Vancouver to get your "om nom nom" on!
Yolk's serves up a delicious breakfast from a charming trailer. All of their food is locally sourced & seasonal and will have your mouth watering!
The Juice Truck serves up gourmet, fresh pressed, organic juice and smoothies! It's the perfect pick-me-up while you're out exploring the streets of Vancouver.
Community Pizzeria is an authentic Neapolitan-style wood-fired pizza truck. Yes. Wood-fired pizza… from a food truck! Using traditional locally-sourced Italian ingredients and made from scratch dough, it's some seriously good pizza.
Described by media reviewers as "possibly the best Mexican, or at least the best fish tacos in BC", Tacofino's offerings are made from scratch with love!
From traditional meat pies to vegetarian options, Aussie Pie Guy has an Australian-style handheld pie for everyone!
Nothing puts a smile on my face quite like a grilled cheese! Mom's Grilled Cheese Truck serves gourmet grilled cheese, soups and other comfort foods… just like mom makes 'em!
Achin' for some bacon? Look no further than Pig on the Street with locally sourced ingredients and an environmentally-friendly menu.
Described to this California girl as the "In-N-Out" of Vancouver, for classic burgers, fries and shakes, Triple O's is the way to go!
For some of the best ice cream in all of Vancouver, keep your eye out for an Earnest Ice Cream cart. Small batch artisan ice creams range in unique flavors from Tahitian Vanilla to Whiskey Hazelnut.
What may appear like your average hot dog stand on a city sidewalk is actually a Vancouver institution. While JAPADOG isn't quite a "food truck," they've been serving up Japanese street-style hotdogs since 2005.
Download the Food Truck Vancouver App for real time locations and opening times for food trucks and street food around the city.
I love how you took the guesswork in choosing. I know you don't have a lot of time but I hope you can also let us take a peek at the foods with some individual reviews.

Associated to the scholarship: 21/04960-5 - From art to politics: the urban experience in Alfred Döblin's theater reviews (1921-1924), BP.PD
This research project aims to translate, disseminate, and analyze texts by Alfred Döblin (1878-1957) published in the newspaper Prager Tagblatt during the years from 1921 to 1924. Hired as a correspondent for the newspaper published in Prague to write reviews on the Berlin theater scene, Döblin took the opportunity to also report on the political events of the early 1920s. Such political remarks constantly appear linked to a description of the city, which for the first time - this is our hypothesis - gains centrality in Döblin's work. In these texts, Döblin begins to reflect on how the structure of the metropolis determines the conditions of the social experience - and these considerations, in turn, influence the analyses the critic makes on the theatrical productions he saw in Berlin. Since not all of Alfred Döblin's texts are available through online bookstores or in our libraries, a short-term stay in Germany would be essential not only to gather texts published around the same time but also to have access to the secondary literature about Döblin's productions during these years.

Quicksails is the moniker of Ben Billington's densely layered solo electronic music. Influenced by the Kosmische school of krautrock and the organ works of minimalists Terry Riley and J.D. Emmanuel, Billington conjures abstract synth-scapes, hypnotic loops and textured atmospheres punctuated by rhythmic pulses. His background in free jazz and world percussion also lends a heavy hand to create a truly unique project that sets itself apart from the vast synthesizer music underground of today. Billington's debut vinyl offering Silver Balloons In Clusters (2012) was released through Under the Spire Records. The newest album Mayville Dream (2013) was released by Spectrum Spools, the label curated by John Elliott (of Emeralds) as an off-shoot of Peter Rehberg's Editions Mego. His solo music has also been released through Deception Island, Digitalis Limited, Discriminate Music, and NNA Tapes.
Along with his bands Tiger Hatchery, ADT and Moonrises…Billington has been lucky enough to also collaborate with the likes of Rhys Chatham, John Olson, David Daniell, Ryley Walker, Josh Abrams, Jeff Parker, Paul Flaherty, Circuit des Yeux, Wasteland Jazz Unit, Ettrick, Akkolyte, Nathan Bell, Chris Grier, many more.


A few species of aphids infest celery in California. According to the UC IPM Pest Management Guidelines, the black bean aphid (Aphis fabae), the foxglove aphid (Aulacorthum solani), the green peach aphid (Myzus persicae), the hawthorn or parsley aphid (Dysaphis apiifolia), and the cotton or melon aphid (Aphis gossypii) attack celery and cause varying levels of damage. These aphids feed on the aboveground plant parts – leaflets and petioles – and some of them are vectors of virus diseases such as western celery mosaic, celery calico, cucumber mosaic, celery yellow spot and others.
In late 2014, an organic celery field in Santa Maria was severely infested with aphids feeding on the root system. Damage stunted plant growth and resulted in up to 80% of yield loss. Gillian Watson at CDFA identified the aphid specimens as the rice root aphid, Rhopalosiphum rufiabdominale (Sasaki) and the honeysuckle aphid, Hyadaphis foeniculi (Passerini). While there was only one earlier record of the honeysuckle aphid infestation on celery, according to the CDFA records, the rice root aphid has never been reported on celery. This is the first record of the rice root aphid on celery. Multiple species of the genus Hyadaphis are referred to as honeysuckle aphid, coriander aphid, and others in the literature, but the one identified on celery was H. foeniculi.
The rice root aphid is known to infest graminaceous (barley, rice, and wheat), rosaceous (apricot and plum), and solanaceous (potato and tomato) crops and is known to vector the barley yellow dwarf virus of grasses and small grains. The honeysuckle aphid is known to be an important pest of apiaceous (fennel), caprofoliaceaeous (honeysuckles), and lamiaceous (mints) plants and involved in the transmission of 13 viruses.
Depending on the host plant they are feeding on, the wingless form of the rice root aphid can be olive to dark green or brownish with yellowish tints or reddish or greenish-brown along with bluish-white wax on the body. The wingless form of the honeysuckle aphid is greyish green or light green with dark appendages.
Natural enemies such as coccinellids, syrphid fly larvae, and lacewings play an important role in biological control of aphids infesting aboveground parts of the plant and root aphid management is a challenge especially in organic cropping systems. To address the issue, a field study was conducted using the following treatments: i) untreated control, ii) Ecotec (rosemary oil 10% and peppermint oil 2%) 19.2 fl oz along with 12 fl oz of Kinetic (silicone and non-ionic surfactants), iii) AzaGuard (azadirachtin) 6.3 fl oz along with 20 fl oz of OroBoost (alcohol ethoxylate), iv) Mycotrol-O (Beauveria bassiana) 1.5 qrt, v) Mycotrol-O 1.5 qrt along with AzaGuard 6.3 fl oz, vi) Venerate (Burkholderia spp.) 2 gal, and vii) Grandevo (Chromobacterium subtsugae) 2 lb per acre. Each treatment was about 0.3 acres of single plot and pesticides were administered through the drip system at 250 gpa rate for 40-45 min on December 9 and 23, 2014. Aphid infestations were evaluated on December 6 (pre-treatment), December 22 (13 days after the first treatment), and January 2, 2015 (10 days after the second treatment). On each sampling date, 10 plants were pulled out from random locations within each treatment, roots were washed in mild soap water, and aphids floating on the surface were filtered and counted. Data were subjected to analysis of variance and significant means were separated using Tukey's HSD test.
There was a significant difference in aphid numbers among different treatments before and after each application (P < 0.002) and when the average for both applications (P < 0.0001) was considered. When the overall change in aphid populations after both applications compared to the pre-treatment numbers was considered, there was a 3% reduction in untreated control, 24, 18, and 129% increase in Ecotec, AzaGuard, and Mycotrol-O treatments, respectively. However, Mycotrol-O along with AzaGuard provided a 62% reduction in aphid populations followed by a 29% reduction by Grandevo and 24% by Venerate. This study demonstrates the potential of non-chemical options in managing aphid populations in organic celery. Microbial pesticides especially in combination with botanical pesticides can play a significant role in pest management. Understanding the modes of actions of different options and using the right combinations is critical in pest management decisions.

One of the big changes in the upcoming Rails 3.1 release is SASS support which is provided by default as a way of generating CSS. SASS provides a number of features to make managing an application's stylesheets easier including nesting, variables and many other features that don't come as standard with CSS. In this episode we'll convert the CSS in a Rails application to SASS to demonstrate its advantages.
There's nothing complicated here so it should be fairly straightforward to convert this code to SASS. The first step is to add a .scss extension to the file name. Normal CSS code is fully-compliant with SASS if the file has an .scss extension so if we reload the page in the browser now it should look exactly the same.
So, that's it, our site is using SASS. Is that all we need to do? Well, no, but it's great that CSS is fully supported as it means that we can pick and choose the SASS features we want to use. If we have a site with a number of existing CSS files we could rename those files and start modifying them to introduce SASS features as and when we wanted. Given the features we're about to show you you'll probably want to start using them straightaway.
This means that we don't have to specify a prefix for nested elements and encourages us to keep nested elements together. It can be easy to get carried away with this feature and to introduce long, complex nested into your SASS code so it's better to keep the nesting simple. That way we can tell at a glance what's nested under what. This isn't a hard-and-fast rule, however, and you can experiment in your own stylesheets to find the level of nesting that suits you best.
We can also use self-referencing nesting in our stylesheets. In the CSS code we have a selector for a and one for a:hover.
We can nest these too but as a:hover isn't a true nested element we need to add an ampersand to represent the parent element.
The ampersand is necessary as we're applying styles to an attribute on an element rather than to a true nested element.
Another useful feature that SASS provides is the ability to define variables. In our CSS file we use the same colour in a number of places. If we wanted to change that colour across the site we'd need to make a number of changes to the CSS file.
If we reload our page again it still looks the same so we haven't broken anything. When we want to change the colour we only need to do so in one place and we can change the blue to a green by changing just one line in the stylesheet.
When we reload the page now all of the styles that use that colour have changed: the background header, the links and the "New Project" button are all now green and we've only had to make one change to our stylesheet to do this.
The border at the bottom of the header is still dark blue but we want it to be a darker shade of the header colour. SASS allows us to define relative colours by making use of functions. A full list of functions is available on the SASS website this includes a darken function that will do exactly what we want. If we pass it a colour and a percentage it will return a colour darkened by that amount.
The header's bottom border colour is defined in the #header declaration.
We can replace the dark blue colour there with a call to darken so that the border is the same colour as the header's background colour but 10% darker.
When we reload the page again the blue border changes to a darker green.
Mix-ins are another SASS feature that can help us to reduce duplication. On our stylesheet are two elements that have a border radius. Border radius definitions are more complicated than they should be as we need to specify vendor-specific CSS declarations to ensure that the radius works across all browsers.
If we move this code out into a mix-in it will make adding border radius declarations to our code much easier. We define a mix-in with the @mixin keyword and give it a name so that we can use it elsewhere.
We can apply a border radius anywhere we want to now by calling @include.
We can now pass in any value we want wherever we want an element with a border radius.
If we want to specify a default value for the argument we can do so like this, though we don't do so for our stylesheet.
Even when using SASS stylesheets can become long and unwieldy so lets look at how we can organise the styles and put them into separate files. We already have a projects.css.scss file in our application which was created when we generated the Projects scaffold. There's nothing in this file by default except a comment, but we can put SASS code in this file and it will be included in the code that's compiled into a single application.css file by Rails 3.1.
We want to move any SASS related to projects into the projects.css.scss file. Let's do that and see what happens.
When we reload the page now we'll see that none of the styles are applied.
We can check to see if a SASS error has been thrown by either looking in the log file or by visiting the stylesheet in the browser.
It looks like the variable that we're defining in our main stylesheet isn't passed between multiple SASS files.
This error is caused by the way that Sprockets work in Rails 3.1. Variables aren't shared between SASS files and we can see why in our application.css file.
The line require_tree . tells Sprockets to include every file inside the stylesheets directory. The problem is that every SASS file is compiled separately into a CSS file before the files are combined so variables aren't shared between files. To get this working we need to remove require_tree . and instead use SASS to import each stylesheet. An advantage of this approach is that it allows us to define the order in which the files are loaded. When we use require_tree we can't determine the order in which the files will be loaded. To do this we need to rename the application.css file to application.css.scss. We can then remove the require_tree line and import our stylesheets instead.
This will preserve all of our variables, mix-ins and anything else we set between stylesheets and when we reload our stylesheet now it loads correctly and the variables defined in the layout stylesheet are available to the projects stylesheet.
You might be wondering why the stylesheets have an extension of .scss when the language is called SASS. This is because SASS supports two different syntaxes. SCSS is new to SASS 3 but the old syntax is still available and will continue to be supported. To use it we use a stylesheet with a .sass file extension. SASS syntax is similar to that of SCSS but it doesn't use curly braces or semicolons at the end of each line instead using significant white-space to define the block level. The SCSS syntax, being a superset of CSS, is easier to deal with if you're migrating existing stylesheets to SASS but the choice is entirely yours.
We'll finish this episode with a quick tip. How can we change the CSS files that are included based on the current controller? Given that we have a stylesheet called projects.css.scss we might think that it would only be included in the ProjectsController's actions, but this is not the case. All of the CSS is compiled into a single stylesheet which is applied to every page in the application. Normally this isn't a problem if we scope everything correctly but at times it can cause problems.
One solution to this is to modify the opening body tag in the layout file and to add an id attribute that has the name of the current controller as its value.
Styles defined in this stylesheet will now only be applied to the ProjectsController's actions. This means that we have less chance of conflicts between similar ids or class names across controllers.
That's it for this episode on SASS. We've not covered everything that SASS can do in this episode so be sure to take a look at the documentation on the SASS website for further information.

The FBI is not going to publicly acknowledge something like that, either way.
You might as well ask them if they have people spying on the Russians or the Chinese.
Are the Dems foisting a lying that the election was stolen, when it clearly was not.
Are the Dems making it their mission to oppose efforts to keep people alive for partisan purposes.
If anything, even if you believe their efforts are misguided, you don't see one side pull out all the stops to oppose the other just to oppose them.
Do you really believe that if somehow the Democrats had produced a Trump and somehow he had been elected, that they would given him a pass on all the shite he's done. BC was radio active because he lied about an affair.
Biden was tossed out of the primaries because he used a line from someone else's speech. Gary Hart because it was suggested he had an affair on a boat.
(Even though that turned out to be a Karl Rove plot to smear him)
Could a Democrat call fallen soldiers suckers and loser and still have the support of the party ? The White House a dump, or compare our troops to Putin's thugs.
Would Dems all do a 180 in front of the public about an attack on our country and still be supported by the base in spite of public comments to the contrary that are barely a year old.
You can not say that and be honest with yourself. Because the party is not a cult of personality. A party is only as sane as its leadership.
I am not married to the Democratic Party.
I'd toss them under the bus in a heartbeat and become as anti Dem as in GOPer if they did what the GOP does and has done.
They are not the same no matter how many times you claim they are.
I know nothing I say will ever change your mind.
But at least you can acknowledge there is something very different going on in the GOP. And that a party with members who encourage picking up guns against their fellow citizen is trying to lead the country down the worst road imaginable.

And sweat them to give up the other traitors who were in on the conspiracy too.
Ok. Fine. You don't sound like a liberal though. Sweaty, vengeful, bitter, vindictive, yes. But how different are you - at this point - from…well…nevermind.
"sweaty, vengeful, bitter, vindictive"? Really? You clearly want the investigation to end with the people who were at the bottom...doing the wishes of the ex-pres...and would prefer it end without indicting those who incited the riot.
Invent whatever you want, weirdo. As for what I'm on record actually posting (repeatedly) is "go ahead". I do think the House thing is stupid political theater, but you guys enjoy it. I don't care.
Of course you do...
Would you care to find out that the Trump campaign contributed a few million bucks to get thousands of people to DC for Jan 6th?
Wouldn't you want to know if the Trump campaign was in contact with the leaders of the Oathkeepers, Proud Boys, Identity Europa, 3 percenters and other right wing extremist groups about the potential for "stopping the steal" by interfering with the count of electors? Do you honestly think it legitimate to have a team of lawyers trying to come up with ways to appoint a selection of electors that were not chosen in the election, just so Trump could stay in power?
This kind of attempted power play has never happened in our history and I want to make sure it never happens again and that those involved at the top are never allowed to work in government and never collect government pensions as a reward for their treachery.
The FBI had the ball on this. The Congressional stuff is, of course, political theater for morons and hacks.
The FBI investigation was limited to the over 700 individuals filmed or photgraphed in the capitol. They did not interview Trump, Meadows, Jordan, Giuliani, Alex Jones...

EuroGames 2021 in Copenhagen Is Going Ahead
By rokur May 19, 2021 1 Comment3 Mins Read
Host of EuroGames 2021, Pan Idræt Copenhagen, says sports events are going ahead despite cancellation of the WorldPride Parade
Pan Idræt, the host of the sports events known collectively as EuroGames 2021, which are part of Copenhagen 2021 together with WorldPride, is still going full speed ahead with the 29 different sports tournaments to be held from 18 to 20 August this summer.
"Of course, we're sad that the actual pride parade has had to be cancelled due to government restrictions," said Christian Bigom, chair of Pan Idræt, the LGBT+ sports club which won the bid to host EuroGames 2021 licenced by the European Gay & Lesbian Sport Federation.
"The parade is the most visible part of the whole event, but still only one part of the massive Copenhagen 2021 mega-event being held in Malmö, Sweden and the Danish capital Copenhagen."
The Danish government has chosen to restrict mass gatherings to an extent that makes it impossible to host a pride parade of the scale normally held each year in Copenhagen, which of course would have been even bigger this year with WorldPride being held in the city.
However, this restriction will not affect the sports tournaments, where the most popular sports are expected to have several hundred participants each. The EuroGames Opening and Closing Ceremonies will also still take place and Copenhagen's restaurants and night life are opening up more and more every week as more people are being vaccinated.
"We're working closely with the relevant sport governing bodies, municipal authorities and others who own the various venues such as sports halls and swimming pools," added Christian Bigom.
"We'll be following all restrictions and advice so that we can all have safe tournaments and make sure our visitors have a great time here too", he concluded.
Katja Moesgaard, the chairperson of Copenhagen 2021, the organization set up by Pan Idræt and Copenhagen Pride to jointly run all the events, is very happy that the sports part of the mega-event will not be affected. "Registration is open until 12 July, and some sports are nearly full, so we might need to close registration early in those cases. Book early – we have a very generous cancellation policy. In the worst-case scenario where we have to cancel because of COVID-19, all registration fees will be refunded 100%", she said.

2017, Benjamin Wallfisch, Blade Runner 2049, Epic Records, Hans Zimmer, Review, Score, Soundtrack
Blade Runner 2049 (Hans Zimmer, Benjamin Wallfish)
Hans Zimmer & Benjamin Wallfish, 2017, Epic Records
Officer K (Ryan Gosling), a new blade runner for the Los Angeles Police Department, unearths a long-buried secret that has the potential to plunge what's left of society into chaos. His discovery leads him on a quest to find Rick Deckard (Harrison Ford), a former blade runner who's been missing for 30 years. The film is directed by Denis Villeneuve (Arrival) and features a score by Hans Zimmer and Benjamin Wallfish.
What does it sound like? And is it any good?
Okay, we all know by now that Johann Johannsson was initially hired to write the score for Blade Runner 2049. An intriguing choice that ultimately didn't quite work out. Villeneuve has been quoted saying that the score needed to be "closer to Vangelis" and so musical duties ended up with Zimmer and Wallfisch. I very much respect and often enjoy Johannsson's work and was looking forward to hearing what he could bring to a film like Blade Runner. His gritty and propulsive score for Sicario proved to me that he'd be up to the task; though admittedly most of his work could be considered as too ambient and he's not really the 'obvious' candidate. Still, I'd be keen to hear his ideas. There are a few other composers who reside in that same musical space – Max Richter, Olafur Arnalds and Rob Simonsen come to mind. All of those, I think, could have written a stellar score that would've been modern, futuristic and yet emotional.
Hans Zimmer and Benjamin Wallfisch feel like the safe choice. With only a few weeks left before general release, I can imagine the filmmakers needed a safe pair of fool-proof hands. If nothing else, Zimmer and his team offer that. With Wallfisch onboard I felt optimistic that we might get a score that has Zimmer's coolness combined with Wallfisch's sentimentality. The Brit has had a brilliant year so far with IT, Annabelle: The Creation and the absolutely gorgeous Bitter Harvest. Sadly, I don't believe the music for Blade Runner 2049 lives up to expectations.
This Blade Runner sequel seems to have been in the making for so long, that it seems incomprehensible to settle for a last-minute replacement score (although there are some great examples of last-minute scores). Perhaps they should've just gone to Zimmer at the very start. After all, wasn't his Chappie an obvious application for the job? Both the movie and its score have seriously big footsteps to follow. Needless to say, Ridley Scott's 1982 Blade Runner is a classic; not just within the sci-fi genre, but in movie history as a whole. Personally, I believe that it's near-perfect and has stood the test of time admirably. Even by today's, arguably far advanced technology, the special effects and visuals of Blade Runner are still stunningly realistic. The score by Greek synthesizer guru Vangelis was, and still is, quite something too. Very futuristic; not dated too badly.
But I must confess something about Vangelis' Blade Runner. I don't actually like it as much as I'd want to. There are a few scenes in the movie where the score is utterly magnificent – the opening scene primarily. Vangelis presents a simple but majestic theme, which incidentally was heard in 2049's trailer. Then there was that love theme for saxophone and the arpeggios in that disco/techno-like end title. Most of the rest is really not that enjoyable on album. Vangelis' score works great in context, but away from it I've never really enjoyed it, despite many attempts to convince myself otherwise.
Why then was I expecting so much from this one? What is it exactly that we get from Zimmer and Wallfisch? We get sound – a lot of sound. It's like a bomb's gone off in the Yamaha factory and all the CS-80 sounds are zooming past your head, like dodging shrapnel on a Normandy beach (…bit of a Dunkirk reference, why not). Regardless of what synths were used – the sounds are in and by themselves fantastic (although there is little variation). I'm reminded of the days when I used to go to my local music shop and go through the presets on a Korg module. It sounded out-of-this-world. I bought it. And I never used it again, because you couldn't do much melodic with it. It's a silly reference, I know, but that does sum up how I feel about the Blade Runner 2049 score. A lot of cool sounds, but almost literally no melody. There's a theme in "Mesa" that sounds like a hybrid between one of Vangelis' themes and Junkie XL's Divergent. Incidentally, I do wonder if he had any involvement here with regards to the overall sound palette. "Joi" is the one cue that comes closest to conveying any sense of emotion. Anything else is wave after wave of synth pads. It feels like layer upon layer of synth sounds washing over you, fading in out and out, like waves crashing on a beach.
The score teases with fragments of Vangelis' original ideas. The score opens with a big reverberating boom, akin to Vangelis' opening. There are similar sounds, like that high-pitched pad that bends downwards like something falling from the sky. Why not go all the way and adopt Vangelis' themes? It teases, but it never delivers. If you want it to 'just play the Vangelis theme damnit', it won't! Or, if nothing else, you would settle for another Batman Begins, Inception or heck even Chappie … don't get your hopes up.
How could this be any better than what Johannsson wrote? And to really finish it off… the album includes songs by Elvis, Sinatra and Adele. Seriously? It couldn't feel more out-of-place if you put Chaz and Dave on there! Look, I know this isn't much of a review. It's a rant, the result of disappointment. I am likely being unfair to anyone involved with this score; so if you want to write me an angry email you're entirely entitled to do so. But I honestly don't even know what to review here. It's 93 minutes of synth pads (and there is a 2CD release too! Marketed as 'limited to 2,049 copies only'… until they released a second batch!). No melody, hardly anything rhythmic. There is no story-telling here, no particular structure or dramatic curve that I can pick up on. Even as 'just' an ambient experience it doesn't work for me. At times it's downright obnoxious; and overall it's really nothing innovative. There is nothing for me to latch on to, be it emotionally or technically. Retro synth scores seem quite popular at the moment, but this doesn't hold a candle to, say, Nerve or Stranger Things. By all accounts, the film itself is brilliant – and that is one helluva feat considering the status of the original, the long wait and everything else. To settle for a score like this, feels like such a wasted opportunity.

The Houston Rockets agreed to trade PJ Tucker and Rodions Kurucs to the Milwaukee Bucks for forward D.J. Wilson, guard DJ Augustin and an array of draft considerations over the next three seasons.
Tucker, a longtime defensive stalwart for the Rockets, is in the final year of his contract and recently requested a trade after he wasn't able to come to terms with the team on a desired contract extension. The Bucks will also offer the 35-year-old a chance to compete for his first NBA title, which Tucker couldn't realistically do in Houston following the departure of superstar guard James Harden in January.
Per ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, here's what the Rockets are trading and receiving in exchange for a package headlined by Tucker:
Houston gets: DJ Augustin, D.J. Wilson, Milwaukee's lightly protected first-round draft pick in 2021, Milwaukee's unprotected first-round draft pick in 2023
Milwaukee gets: PJ Tucker, Rodions Kurucs, Houston's second-round draft pick in 2021, Milwaukee's first-round draft pick in 2022 (which Houston had owned)
Sources: Houston is trading PJ Tucker, Rodions Kurucs and Bucks' 2022 first-round pick back to Milwaukee for DJ Augustin, DJ Wilson and 2023 unprotected first-round pick. Houston also gets right to swap its 2021 second-round pick for Milwaukee's FRP pick unless it falls 1-9.

From a draft perspective, Houston is effectively bumping up its second-round pick in the 2021 draft to Milwaukee's first-round position. The swap is protected if Milwaukee is in the top nine, but at 25-14, that is incredibly unlikely to happen — since the Bucks are currently No. 3 in the Eastern Conference, with over half the season already gone.
The Rockets are also swapping Milwaukee's 2022 first-round pick for one in 2023, which is unprotected. With the Bucks led by two-time MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo for the foreseeable future, general manager Rafael Stone likely wanted to push back that pick, since the delay allows more time for Milwaukee's outlook to potentially worsen. There's also the possibility that the 2023 draft might be stronger, since that could be the year high school players are once again deemed draft-eligible.
Don't forget that (while a lot can change between now and then), many are looking at the 2023 draft to be the infamous "double draft" when high schoolers may once again be draft-eligible. https://t.co/nl6ABkifCW

Creative use by the Rockets of their control of the Bucks' 2022 pick to gain leverage for draft capital in both 2021 and 2023.
As for the players Houston picked up, Augustin is a 33-year-old point guard who is under contract for approximately $7 million per year through the 2022-23 season. He's averaging 6.1 points and 3.0 assists in 19.0 minutes per game this season. At 38.0% on 3-pointers, he becomes Houston's third-ranked shooter after Christian Wood and Sterling Brown. Augustin played college basketball at the University of Texas, which should make the transition to Houston an easy one.
While there isn't a clear path to minutes for Augustin, since the Rockets have John Wall and Kevin Porter Jr. at point guard, Wall is currently injured — and reports have indicated he could undergo a knee scope later this season. That could provide Augustin with an opportunity.
The 5-foot-11 guard could also be traded again before the March 25 deadline, since the rebuilding Rockets (11-27) aren't prioritizing veterans at the moment. However, since Augustin's contract can't be aggregated with others for 60 days following this deal, it would appear more likely for him to become a trade candidate in the offseason.
Look at it this way: both teams won the trade. Bucks get a veteran that fits a role. Rockets get draft assets, depth and a player to try to develop. https://t.co/i1VEVlX7VU

As for Wilson, he's an athletic 6-foot-10 forward who is averaging 3.6 points and 2.1 rebounds in 8.8 minutes per game. A first-round pick in the 2017 draft, the 25-year-old is in his fourth NBA season and is likely to enter restricted free agency this offseason.
Since the Rockets don't have much in the way of proven production behind Christian Wood at center, Wilson could get an opportunity late in the 2020-21 season to showcase his value after being buried on the Milwaukee bench for much of his tenure there.
