Terry Crews named new host of 'Who Wants To Be A Millionaire'
By Samantha Highfill
Merrick Morton
Ex-NFL player and current Brooklyn Nine-Nine star Terry Crews has officially been named the new host of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire.
"I'm beyond thrilled to be joining Who Wants To Be A Millionaire and the Disney-ABC family," Crews said in a statement. "Millionaire is such a beloved franchise and I can't wait to get started as the new host. In addition to my film projects including Blended, Brooklyn Nine-Nine and now being a first time author, hosting has always been a dream of mine, and I couldn't have asked for a greater opportunity."
Crews, who is taking over for departing host Cedric "The Entertainer," will join the show at the start of its 13th season in the fall of 2014.

Q: Prove that for any vector $v ∈ W$ we have $v = \frac{\langle v,v_1\rangle}{\|v_1\|^2} v_1 + \cdots + \frac{\langle v,v_n\rangle}{\|v_n\|^2} v_n$. Let $\langle x,y\rangle$ be an inner product on $F^m$ and define $\|x\| = \sqrt{\langle x,x\rangle}$. Suppose $W$ is a subspace of $F^m$ and $\dim(W) = n$.
Let $β = \{v_1, v_2, \ldots , v_n\}$ be an orthogonal basis for $W$. Prove that for any vector $v ∈ W$ we have $v = \frac{\langle v,v_1\rangle}{||v_1||^2} v_1 + \cdots + \frac{\langle v,v_n\rangle}{\|v_n\|^2} v_n$.
I recognize this as the projection of $v_1$ onto $v +{}$ the projection of $v_2$ onto $v + \cdots +{}$ the projection of $v_n$ onto $v$ but I'm not sure how to show $v$ is equal to this. I'm assuming that because $β$ is a basis I can write any vector $v$ as a linear combination of its vectors (i.e. $v = c_1v_1 + \cdots + c_nv_n$), but then I don't know if I can show that $c_k = \frac{\langle v,v_k\rangle}{\|v_k\|^2}$ for every $k$. I think there's something about the basis being orthogonal that can help me reach my conclusion, but I can't seem to figure out exactly how to use this fact to help me.

A: Denoting $v = c_1v_1 + c_2v_2 + \cdots + c_nv_n$ for some $c_1, c_2, \cdots, c_n$ since $\{v_1, v_2, \cdots, v_n\}$ is a basis. We have
\begin{align}
& v - \frac{\langle v, v_1\rangle}{\|v_1\|^2}v_1 - \cdots - \frac{\langle v, v_n\rangle}{\|v_n\|^2}v_n \\
=\ &\left(c_1 - \frac{\langle v, v_1\rangle}{\|v_1\|^2}\right)v_1 + \cdots + \left(c_n -  \frac{\langle v, v_n\rangle}{\|v_n\|^2}\right)v_n \\
=\ & \left(c_1 - \frac{\langle c_1v_1, v_1\rangle}{\|v_1\|^2}\right)v_1 + \cdots + \left(c_n -  \frac{\langle c_nv_n, v_n\rangle}{\|v_n\|^2}\right)v_n \\
=\ &\left(c_1 - c_1\right)v_1 + \cdots + \left(c_n -  c_n\right)v_n \\
=\ &0
\end{align}
where the second equality is because
$$
\langle v, v_i \rangle = \langle c_1v_1 + c_2v_2 + \cdots + c_nv_n, v_i\rangle = \langle c_iv_i, v_i\rangle = c_i \langle v_i, v_i \rangle = c_i\|v_i\|^2
$$

The Horndon mint was an Anglo-Saxon mint established at Horndon-on-the-Hill in Thurrock, Essex. It is known from a single coin of the reign of Edward the Confessor.

The only surviving example of a coin from the Horndon mint was among the hoard of coins found in the 18th century in a basement near St Mary Hill church, in the ward of Billingsgate, London, England. The coin is described as being of the sovereign/martlet type, with the head of the sovereign and a martlet mint mark; it was minted between 1056 and 1059. It bears the inscription Dudinc on Hornidune on the reverse. Hornidune is the earliest recorded form of Horndon, which appears in Domesday as Horniduna.

The moneyer, Dudinc, has the same name as someone striking coins in London for Harold Harefoot and Edward the Confessor. There is an "almost inescapable" conclusion that they were the same man.

From the reign of King Edgar onwards many mints were established to meet the need for new coins when the older ones were withdrawn. This happened regularly, partly to counteract inflation, but also to provide income to the king.

The existence of a mint at Horndon is described by Frank Stenton as signifying "a claim to be regarded as a borough" and Horndon was noted as an Anglo-Saxon town by Aston and Bond based on possession of a mint. A number of small mints were established during the reign of Edward the Confessor, but the choice of Horndon which was an "undistinguished village" is not obvious. Sydney suggests that the solution may be that the manor of Horndon was under the influence of Robert FitzWimarc and his son Swein of Essex, a powerful and ambitious local family.

Allotment is helping people recover mental health
Growing and tending vegetables and flowers on a purpose-designed allotment is helping people in the Selby area to recover their mental health.
The allotment has been rented by North Yorkshire County Council's Selby Community Recovery Mental Health Team from Selby Town Council. The plot had not been used for several years, so team members had a big job on their hands to clear the site.
They set to work, clearing weeds and debris, but what really made the difference was help from Nomenca, a construction company that has been known to support community ventures in the past. Nomenca agreed to help after an approach by the team and brought in workers and machinery in summer to clear and level the site, put in a path and patio and add six raised beds to the one the team had created.
Community Recovery Mental Health Team member Wendy Gill said: "The amount of work Nomenca did for us in four days was unimaginable. We would not have been able to do that without their support. We could not get to parts of the allotment because it was five feet high in weeds. The raised beds are particularly useful, being at an easy height for people to work on."
The team discusses with clients how they want to use the allotment and is guided by them in decisions about what they would like to plant and what jobs need to be done. Currently, between three and five people attend each Tuesday morning session for group or one-to-one support. The team raised funds to buy equipment for the allotment and tools were donated by the Tool Shed Project, which works with prisoners to repair broken tools and reuse them.
Although the allotment hasn't had a full growing year, the clients have planted a potato crop, tomatoes, peas, courgettes, lettuce, rocket and spinach and, more recently, carrots and, for Halloween, pumpkins. Soon they will plant winter cabbage and plan more extensive planting next year. They have also planted apple and cherry trees and plan a sensory garden.
County Councillor Michael Harrison, Executive Member for Adult Social Care and Health Integration, said: "Helping people to improve and maintain good mental health is a priority for the County Council, along with its NHS and community partners, and we have protected and invested in social care mental health services.
"The benefits of gardening for mental health and wellbeing are well-established. Outdoor activities have been shown to help to relieve stress and help manage mental ill-health. I'm sure the allotment will offer significant therapeutic value, supporting people in their recovery, offering a social network and opportunities to create and to relax."
Richard Webb, the County Council's Corporate Director of Health and Adult Services, visited the allotment on Friday (14 September) to see the work being done.
He said: "Improving mental health is one of my passions. One in four of us will experience a mental health issue at some point in our lives. It's great to see what something like an allotment can do to help people take more control of their mental health and feel better for doing so. It's been great to be here in Selby, talking with everyone involved."
Nomenca Managing Director Andy Langman said: "It was an absolute pleasure to be able to help out with this project. The whole Nomenca team present thoroughly enjoyed spending their time on such a worthwhile cause. I'm hoping that this will encourage other businesses to also help out where they can, too."
Clients have said that they appreciate having a calm space that they can enjoy without judgement or pressure. They also value the opportunity to speak to people who have had similar experiences. They have also said they like the collaborative approach to the allotment and the ability for them to take responsibility for it.
The Community Recovery Mental Health Team works in partnership with the Tees, Esk and Wear Valley NHS Foundation Trust (South West Community Mental Health Team, or CMHT) and takes referrals from the CMHT to provide social care support for people with long-term mental health conditions, dealing with such issues as social isolation, anxiety and depression with the additional aim of providing meaningful activity for the people involved.

Poll: Enthusiasm Gap Remains Challenge for Midterms Dems
By Evan McMurryApr 29th, 2014, 7:38 am
A new Washington Post/ABC News poll found problems for Democratic candidates heading into the 2014 midterms, as demographics key to the Democrats' 2012 win sounded iffy about voting while Republicans were eager to head to the polls. The so-called enthusiasm gap could erase leads Democrats have on a swath of issues and imperil their control of the Senate.
Only 53% of 18-39-year-olds said they were "certain" about voting, while only 55% of non-whites said the same, both groups that tend to lean Democratic. Older respondents and white men, by contrast, were much more likely to report themselves as certain to show up on election day.
Respondents gave President Barack Obama a 41% approval rating, lower than some recent polls that have found his numbers back up into the mid-forties, and were equally woeful about his handling of the economy. Approval on his handling of the situation in Ukraine is only 34%.
RELATED: Poll: GOP Voters Much More Enthusiastic to Vote in November than Democrats
Meanwhile, Democrats enjoy an advantage on most issues save spending, deficit reduction, and guns, and maintain significant leads on women's issues, gay marriage, climate change, and the minimum wage. However, a "pox on both their houses" attitude reigns in response to congressional approval, with respondents overwhelmingly blaming both parties for the what they view as a stagnant economy.
The Affordable Care Act registered a 44/48 approval rating, up from its doldrums in December. But respondents did not find it to be helping the health care system or its costs on a systemic or individual level.

NYCC 2010: Dead Space 2 Is "Done"
The producer of Dead Space 2 says the game is "done" and that the team is in full polish mode.
Zach Mumbach is happy to live, breathe and eat Dead Space right now. The team at Visceral is zooming right along because, according to Mumbach, the game's producer, the process now is all about bugs and polish. With a ship date of January 25th, the Dead Space team can spend the next four months perfecting their game. For what I saw at New York Comic today, I might agree with Mumbach when he told me, "This is the best game that I've ever worked on."
Some fans were upset that Isaac Clarke, the protagonist of Dead Space, now speaks in game and during cutscenes. But for a third person shooter, as opposed to something like Half Life that is told firmly through the point of a view of a voiceless character, adding a specific characterization to Isaac Clarke made sense for the type of game that Visceral wanted to make. "To push the story in the direction that we wanted to push it, [Isaac] needed to take control," Mumbach said. "It's a difference between asking 'Are you projecting yourself on a character?' or 'Are you following a character?'" For Mumbach, it was more important for the audience to experience Isaac's story rather than project onto a silent protagonist.
Perhaps that's because Isaac's backstory and characterization is much more important in Dead Space 2. Isaac was a victim of circumstance in the first Dead Space, but, in the sequel, he is an expert. "It's kind of like Ripley in Aliens. He's got the most experience; He's the one who's seen necromorphs. He kind of bumbled around in the first one."
The playable demo at New York Comic Con was exclusively on PS3s, even though the game is also being made for the Xbox 360 and for PCs. Playing with the Sony's controller takes a little getting used to at first, but there is a mastery that comes once you do. Mumbach said that even he needed to think about what the different buttons each did when he was playing on a PS3. He liked putting fans that were familiar with the control scheme in the front of the booth so that passersby could see the amazing feats that Isaac can do. It is truly amazing to see an expert use Isaac's Kinesis powers to grab necromorph's limb and then fire it back at the enemy.
The demo at NYCC had us running through the short level that Activision showed during their presentation at E3. The creepiness and horror-feel is still there, and the damn necromorphs are still tough to kill. Stasis and Kinesis powers are just as important as in the first game; it's virtually impossible to kill the necromorphs without freezing them in place first with a Stasis.
At Visceral, Mumbach said that there isn't a period of enforced crunch, but that long hours happen because they are passionate about the game. "No one is forced to work overtime. Most of our team is guys that were on Dead Space 1 and they really, really care. More often than not, it just ends up being two in the morning and then you're like, 'How'd that happen?'"
For now, it's clear that all of the hard work is paying off.


Four years of annual crop production with no herbicide use can drive canola productivity toward zero. However, the good news for producers buying abused land is that canola productivity can recover in one year with adequate weed control.
Neil Harker with Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC) led a four-year initial input study at five locations in Alberta and Saskatchewan, followed by a two-year recovery study, to determine how quickly canola and barley yields can recover from heavy weed interference.
In the initial input study (2005-08), main plots were split between canola and barley. Subplots were given various input treatments, including standard and low input packages and selected combinations – including a treatment with no herbicide and full fertilizer over a four-year period. All input strategies were imposed on each plot for a period of four years to evaluate cumulative effects in a canola-barley or barley-canola rotation.
After four years without herbicides, weed biomass levels exceeded 2,000 kg/ha in barley and 4,000 kg/ha in canola plots (see Figure 1). Barley was more competitive than canola, with generally lower weed biomass levels in all situations where herbicide was reduced or excluded. Weed biomass levels tended to be highest in plots that received fertilizer in the absence of herbicides, possibly due to better utilization of nutrients by the weeds compared to the crops.
After four years of the initial input study, all plots received standard inputs for two years (2009-10) in the recovery study.
After standard optimal inputs were restored, barley and canola plots at most sites recovered to optimal yield levels after one year (see Figure 1). The yield recovery occurred despite high weed biomass levels in 2008 and high wild oat seedbank levels (> 6,000 wild oat seeds/m2), which persisted at the end of the study (2010).
The study shows that herbicide application can optimize yields in weedy fields despite relatively high weed seedbank levels. Therefore, it is probably more important to optimize yield by managing weeds early in the growing season than to repeat herbicide applications later in the season that may reduce weed seedbank levels and recruitment in the following year. Repeat herbicide applications will definitely increase selection pressure for weed resistance to herbicides.
Overall, the negative effects of high soil weed seedbanks can be mitigated if growers use appropriate seed and fertilizer rates to achieve healthy crop canopies, and use judicious herbicide applications to adequately manage weeds.
Figure 1. Weed biomass and canola yield. Cumulative weed biomass (line) and canola yield (bars) effects in plots that repeatedly received all inputs but herbicides from 2005 to 2008 (means of five sites). Shading shows weed biomass and yield after standard inputs were restored for one (2009) and two years (2010). Canola was grown in a canola-barley rotation.

Chemical treatment using ferric chloride or aluminum sulfate in combination with calcium hydroxide has been studied for the purpose of removing phosphorus from ortho-phosphate, ortho-and pyro-phosphate and ortho- pyro- and tripoly-phosphate solutions in the pH range 7.5 to 9.5.
The data showed that pyro- and tripoly-phosphate could be more easily removed than ortho-phosphate in the experimental pH range. The data also showed that the combination of ferric chloride and calcium hydroxide had better settling ability than the combination of aluminum sulfate and calcium hydroxide.
With a molar ratio of 1:1 between iron or aluminum and phosphorus as ortho-phosphate and 150 mg/1 of calcium hydroxide, a supernatant of about 1 mg/1 P was obtained from a phosphorus solution of 10 mg/1 P as ortho-phosphate, 4 mg/1 P as pyro-phosphate and 6 mg/1 P as tripoly-phosphate near pH 9. After filtration through a sand column, the residual phosphorus was reduced to about 0.6 mg/1 P. The residual phosphorus could be further reduced to less than 0.2 mg/l P during the first eight hours and about 0.3 mg/1 P even after 24 hours by using a mixed column of sand and soil to replace the sand column.

The Homeowners of this beautiful center hall colonial in the historic section of South Orange retained Morpurgo Architects to design an addition that would include a Family Room with a Kitchen, incorporate the existing Living Room, and create open spaces with a continuous flow throughout the first floor.
An enclosed porch across the rear of the house prevented access to the backyard. We resolved this challenge by providing access to their large yard through a pair of French doors. We also integrated in the new space a rear Entry with Mud Room, Laundry Room, Office, and Bathroom.
The ceiling configuration became one of the most interesting aspects of our Transformation. In the Family Room, rising on an angle over the large kitchen center island, several intersecting ceiling planes come together, square in plan, adding visual interest and soaring space.
The design of the Kitchen and its layout speak volumes of efficiency, and the selection of the color palette and materials makes the Kitchen the centerpiece of the home.

People laughed at me when I suggested back on September 29, 2010 that Facebook should buy Skype. Here's what I wrote then, and I still think that is the real reason for a Skype-Facebook deal: Sure, this would be a big, hairy merger, but look at it this way: In one swoop, Facebook would dominate what I've maintained is both the new age and classic social networking. They have people's credit cards; they have their real-world phone information; and in the end, they have a better, more useful, social graph than Facebook itself. The Skype-Facebook client on the desktop would mean both Facebook and Skype will be jointly in people's faces, and take time away from other web services, such as Google. A simple search box inside the Skype client, and the two companies are starting to take attention away from arch-nemesis, Google. Since then, Skype is much bigger, has more revenues and has a lousy new desktop client. Facebook has taken huge strides towards owning "communications" and online "interactions." When Facebook launched its Social Inbox, I pointed out: For the first three years of its life, the company was merely a social network, but then it transformed itself in quick succession into a social web platform and then a social aggregator of the web. Today, the company launched its "social inbox," a new kind of messaging system that is the first public manifestation of the new new Facebook. Facebook's newest core competency is communications — a way to become even more indispensable in our daily web lives. There are many other reasons why this deal makes sense, the biggest being Marc Andreessen, the web wunderkind turned über-VC who sits on the board of Facebook and has investments in both companies. It would be Christmas in summer for his fund if this deal goes through.

$Signed a two-year, $8.36 million contract with the Bulls in July of 2017. Bulls exercised $5.3 million team option for 2019-20 in October of 2018. Contract includes team option for 2020-21.
Average Fantasy Points are determined when Lauri Markkanen was active vs. non-active during the season. Click here to view average fantasy points for a different time period.
Born in Finland, Markkanen opted to come Stateside for his collegiate career, but spent just one standout season in Arizona before declaring for the 2017 NBA Draft. With Arizona, the seven-foot big man showed an impressive jump shot for his size, shooting 49.2 percent from the field, which translated to a team-high 20.2 points per game. Markkanen was also able to hit from the perimeter with a 42.3 percent clip from the three-point line, giving him the size and offensive skill set that's highly coveted in today's NBA. That prompted the Bulls to select Markkanen with the seventh overall pick of this year's draft. He's heading into one of the more beneficial environments of this year's rookie class, as the Bulls are in full rebuild mode. They traded away superstar Jimmy Butler to the Timberwolves and could potentially part with Dwyane Wade as well, in what appears to be a youth movement in Chicago. Markkanen is a candidate to immediately jump into the starting lineup as a stretch-four with his shooting ability. While he's got a ton of work to do defensively and needs to bulk up in order to have a chance on the boards against some of the bigger power forwards in the league, Markkanen will still be one of the more intriguing rookies due to his offensive ability and opportunity for playing time in the frontcourt. Markkanen will have to hold of Nikola Mirotic and Bobby Portis for rights to a starter's job, but look for his role to ultimately expand as the year goes on. Markkanen could be worth taking a flier on in later rounds of deeper leagues, as the Bulls are fully expected to commit to his development as one of the young building blocks for the future.
Markkanen (fatigue) will be shut down for the remainder of the season, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
Markkanen (illness) will not play Wednesday against the Trail Blazers, Jamie Hudson of NBC Sports Northwest reports.
Markkanen is considered questionable to return to Tuesday's tilt against the Raptors due to an illness.
Markkanen totaled 18 points (6-20 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 5-5 FT), 10 rebounds and a steal over 26 minutes in the Bulls' loss to the Jazz on Saturday.
Markkanen produced 32 points (12-21 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), 13 rebounds, five assists and a block across 37 minutes in the Bulls' win over the Wizards on Wednesday.

Trained as an arts administrator and consultant, I familiarised myself with the business behind the arts - the institutions, the theories, the politics and the numbers. My degree in English literature and my experience as director of the Leiden Fund for Arts helped me understand the true essence of our 'business': the autonomy of the artist and his or her creations. With an understanding of both art and business, my aim is to help my artists develop artistically as well as financially.
Whereas most artist representation focuses solely on representation whithin one particular discipline (literary agents, band managers, gallerists, etc.), I feel the cultural sector needs an interdisciplinary approach in order to truly flourish. I envisage a situation where everybody involved can learn from other sectors, form alliances to broaden markets, and let the artists cross-over more often to make exciting and interesting new work.
That is why I represent a couple of great artists from different disciplines and places: a poet from Genua, a musician from Berlin and a visual artist from Leiden. By working closely with other parties involved in their respective sectors (publishers, galleries, venues, festivals, etc.) I will be in a position to keep an eye open for unconventional opportunities beyond the usual scope of a more limited perspective.
I am trained as an arts administrator and consultant, specialising in public-private collaboration, entrepreneurial development and regional cultural policy. How can the cultural sector broaden its market? How can governments or business achieve their goals through collaboration with the arts?
I have been director of the Leiden Fund for Arts & Culture (Cultuurfonds Leiden) until 2016. This unique foundation invests in professionalising the cultural sector and actively initiates collaborations between cultural organisations, business life and public institutions. Since the fund's particular mission and strategy has been recognised as good practice in The Netherlands, I regularly advice other cities on similar constructs.
I learned the 'trade' of arts administration by founding the Leiden International Film Festival with some fellow students back in 2006, of which I have been managing director until 2012. It is one of the fastest growing film festivals in Europe with an annual attendance of over 35.000 visitors. Meanwhile, I worked as a consultant and policy advisor with Bureau Blaauwberg, specialised in regional economic development. The synergy between arts & economics has fascinated me ever since. That's why a decided to get a certificate in Arts Administration at New York University in 2014.
I decided to combine arts management & consultancy with artist representation. These two different worlds (that of the art itself, and that of cultural policy and arts administration) are closely tied - now more than ever - and I am convinced a good arts manager has to understand both. I believe that great art deserves a great audience and I hope to contribute by helping artists, cultural institutions, governments and businesses to work together and invigorate each other.

We believe that the Christian life is enhanced when believers share their Christian journey with other believers and this best happens within a small group of about 10-12 believers. Jesus had his small group of 12 disciples. This is where church life really happens. It's in small groups that people connect and practice their gifts in building the body of Christ.


Every single year there are more and more farms that close down in the United States due to the problem with meeting modern day demands. As a result, there are plenty of higher up corporations and businesses that are investing in trying to monetize groups of farms and farmers. It is important that this is done properly because farms are a huge deal in the United States and are often responsible for people's daily food consumption.
One of the best ways for a business to stay on top of their farms involved using modern day technology. For instance, they can use agriculture software companies and agronomy software. This advantage of technology is something that could truly help out farmers and businesses across the country. Here are all of the facts on the morning farm report.
It is important for farms to have success for not just the United States, but the entire globe. If not, there is going to be a high degree of difficulty in meeting the demands of the world for food consumption. So while the idea of a morning farm report may seem tedious to you, it is important for everyone involved in the business side of things.
There are so many moving parts that exist on a farm and these moving parts are hard to keep track of. When farms are working to optimal abilities, it has to be done so that they can produce a high amount of products. If not, then they will fall in rankings amongst other farms.
Unless you are someone that has experience on the farm, understanding sustainability data and sustainability metrics can be difficult, if not impossible. This may seem like a surprise to most people but that is not at all true. As a matter of fact, anyone that is involved with a farm understands that it is helpful to have a morning farm report.
When you are a farmer you are going to be working with plants and animals. These are two things that require a high amount of effort and productivity to get the most out of these products and items. Keep in mind that plants are complex in terms of managing and they are much easier than managing animals.
Being able, to sum up, the daily schedule on a farm is simple and convenient for all people who work on a farm. This will allow for them to simply centralize their information into one single newsletter. The morning farm report will then be sent to all of the businesses and corporations that buy from said farm.
The amount of time that is freed up from a morning farm report can help farmers do more productive things, such as managing animals. As mentioned, livestock can be hard to handle because they are unpredictable animals. So when farmers have more time to dedicate to livestock, it leads to better products.
In the grand scheme of things, it is best for everyone when farmers are able to have success. When farmers are able to do their job better, it means they are making better products. These products are then sold to consumers across the nation for consumption. So when they are able to put their best foot forward, it allows for you and everyone else to have access to the best food possible.

Homepage : News : Ethiopia to skip new round of talks with Egypt over Nile dam dispute
Ethiopia to skip new round of talks with Egypt over Nile dam dispute
The Great Ethiopian Renaissance Dam is nearly complete [AFP]
Date of publication: 26 February, 2020
Ethiopia's water ministry says that the country will skip talks with Egypt in Washington over a controversial dam Ethiopia is building on the Nile.
Egypt, Ethiopia, US, Great Ethiopia Renaissance Dam, Nile, talks, drought
Ethiopia will skip the latest round of US-brokered talks this week on a disputed Nile dam project with Egypt and Sudan, the country's water ministry announced on Wednesday.
A final deal on the massive Great Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD) had been expected this month, but US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said on a visit to Ethiopia last week that an agreement now might take months as "a great deal of work remains."
The dispute over what will be Africa's largest hydroelectric dam pits Ethiopia's desire to pull millions out of poverty against Egypt's concerns over critical water supply. Egypt fears that the GERD will deprive its citizens of life-giving water, causing famine and drought.

Ethiopia will skip the talks in Washington on Thursday and Friday "because the country's delegation hasn't concluded its consultation with relevant stakeholders," the Ministry of Water, Irrigation and Energy said on its Facebook page. "The decision has been communicated with the US Treasury secretary."
Egyptian diplomatic sources had earlier told The New Arab's Arabic-language service that Ethiopia had requested that Egypt postpone any agreement on the dam until after Ethiopian parliamentary elections in August.
The announcement came amid widespread concerns in Ethiopia that its delegation has been pressured by the US to reach a deal on the $4.6 billion dam that is nearing completion. The US became involved in the talks following an invitation from Egypt.
"Ethiopia will never sign on an agreement that will surrender its right to use the Nile River," the Ethiopian ambassador to the US, Fitsum Arega, said on Twitter.
Responding to Ethiopia's decision to sit out this week's meeting, Egypt's foreign ministry spokesman, Ahmed Hafez, asserted that Egypt remained "committed to the negotiation track ... according to what was agreed upon by the three countries." He said the Egyptian irrigation minister would attend the talks.
Egypt wants the dam to be filled more slowly to reduce restrictions on the flow of the Nile.
Ethiopia says the dam is needed to provide electricity for development. In January it announced that it will start filling the dam, now more than 70 percent complete, in July at the start of the rainy season.
"There was lots of discomfort recently due to the behavior and changing role of the US among policy makers in Ethiopia," political analyst Abel Abate Demissie told The Associated Press.

Bucharest, 12 April 2019. European business aviation calls for an inclusive European Aviation Framework to enable improved connectivity, efficiency, European competitiveness and regional cohesion across the continent.
Global passenger traffic is expected to double by 2037 and accommodating this fascinating growth is a major challenge for the European air transport industry and governments. It will require new standards, technologies, harmonised regulations and adequate infrastructure.
On the occasion of Romania's European Council Presidency, aviation regulators and industry experts met to discuss key topics for the air transport industry in the region.
For instance, since the start of the Romanian European Council Presidency in January, business aviation traffic in Romania has increased by 25% compared to the same period in 2018 (Source: 2019 EBAA Yearbook). This demonstrates the ever-pressing need for the closely tailored, flexible, point-to-point air transportation for governments, businesses and local communities in the most time-efficient way possible that business aviation provides.
But business aviation is not just a time machine. New technologies such as electrification, VTOL (Vertical Take-Off and Landing), blockchain, artificial intelligence, and alternative fuels are igniting the pace of innovation in aviation. And nowhere is it more prevalent than business aviation – the industry that sets the bar for air travel.
These much-needed improvements and technological advances will only be made possible if the EU is able to provide the adequate infrastructure for business aviation operators in Europe. In particular, access to airports and airspace which remain major hurdles for our sector.
Just last week, despite record delays as well as industry calls for urgent EU airspace reform, EU Member States approved the weakest performance targets ever for Europe's air traffic control providers by agreeing to extend the threshold for delays. These new targets will not incentivise the performance improvements the European airspace network desperately needs, nor will they support the delivery of the Single European Sky benefits.
A recent European Commission report comparing air traffic management in the U.S. versus Europe found that in 2017, despite the U.S. controlling nearly 50% more flights (15.3m in the U.S. vs 10.4m in Europe) — "the total number of flights with reportable delay was 387,000 in Europe vs. 258,000 in the U.S. This means that 50% more flights are delayed in Europe than in the U.S.", due to Europe's fragmented system.

About the CLI
The Laurel Highlands Conservation Landscape Initiative (CLI) is a partnership that strives to raise the region's quality of life while crafting a model of sustainable development tied to the natural and cultural assets of the region. The initiative connects communities and partners in the area with state agencies and funding partners to conserve and protect the high quality assets and enhance the region's economic viability.
The Pennsylvania Department of Conservation & Natural Resources has created seven CLIs. Pennsylvania Environmental Council is proud to serve as lead external partner to the Laurel Highlands CLI.

Laurel Highlands e-blast update Vol. 3 No. 4
A $4 million grant from the Federal Highway Administration's National Scenic Byways program has been awarded for the Laurel Highlands Falls Area Visitors Center in Ohiopyle State Park. The state Department of Conservation and Natural Resources will build the new visitor center at a total cost of $6.8 million, including exhibits.
Ohiopyle Falls Race.
"This is a key project of the regional Conservation Landscape Initiative, a strategy for natural resource stewardship and community revitalization," DCNR acting Secretary Richard Allan said. "The new welcome center at Ohiopyle State Park will teach people about the region's natural, historic and recreation assets and point them to nationally significant trails, challenging whitewater, fishing and other outdoor pursuits."
Ohiopyle State Park, located along the Laurel Highlands Scenic Byway and near the Historic National Road, is the region's portal with more than 1.5 million visitors annually.
Trails, phone apps, signage…. Lots of good projects are under review for the Laurel Highlands Mini-Grant Program.
Despite very short notice, 47 organizations submitted letters of intent to apply for the grants program managed by the National Road and Lincoln Highway Heritage Corridors. Letters were sent to 23 of the organizations inviting them to submit full applications. Notices of award will be sent out in mid-June.
DCNR has provided $100,000 for mini-grants of up to $15,000 to support efforts to revitalize communities by connecting them to outdoor recreation, natural resources, heritage or cultural resources, and agriculture.
Stonycreek whitewater valve dedicated
The Laurel Highlands now has two rivers with scheduled releases of dam water to support whitewater boating. Over 100 people attended the dedication of the whitewater release valve installed in Quemahoning Dam with grants from DCNR and the Mellon and Colcom Foundations.
Playboaters on Stonycreek.
DCNR Deputy Secretary Cindy Dunn spoke at the event, which attracted live coverage from WJAC-TV and widespread newspaper coverage, including coverage in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette (http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/11142/1148254-140-0.stm). The Cambria Somerset Authority, established to support economic development from the water system previously owned by Bethlehem Steel Corp., was lauded for recognizing the value of outdoor recreation from dollars spent by visitors and making the region more attractive for general job development.
The dedication kicked off the annual Stonycreek Rendezvous, which attracts about 1,000 people.
WPC competes 3 easements
Three properties near Ligonier are permanently protected through conservation easements completed in May by the Western Pennsylvania Conservancy.
The privately-owned, 58-acre Ligonier Camp and Conference Center includes 2,000 feet of frontage on Loyalhanna Creek and is easily viewed from Route 30. A 48-acre farm owned by sisters Julie and Ann Donovan includes a house, barns and outbuildings, and shares about a mile of Loyalhanna Creek with the Center property.
The 139-acre Kevin and Debra McVicker farm has highly visible, picturesque hills surrounding a section of Hanna's Run, a tributary to Loyalhanna Creek.
For more information: http://www.paconserve.org/news/view/150.
Construction started May 31 on the new Laurel Highlands Hiking Trail bridge over the Pennsylvania Turnpike near Somerset. The $1.3 million contract was awarded to Pittsburgh-based Mosites Construction Co. Work on the 10-foot-wide, 184-foot-long span is scheduled to be complete in early December.
A 600-seat outdoor pavilion and stage will be built this year at the 3.5-acre Festival Park in Johnstown, where the annual AmeriServ Flood City Music Festival is held (see events below). Peoples Natural Gas Co. donated $500,000 to complete the funding for the $4 million project, which includes a $2 million state Redevelopment Assistance Capital Program grant and $100,000 from the Katherine Mabis McKenna Foundation.
The Trail Town Program® is offering matching grants to help businesses install bike racks and/or custom-made and locally-produced signs that reflect the special nature of each participating business along the Great Allegheny Passage. Contact Amy Camp, Trail Town Program® Manager for more information at (724) 216-9160 or acamp@progressfund.org.

dear sir this is dr kapil agrawal from K.E.M. Hospital, Mumbai. yesterday i was travelling from Golden temple mail from mathura jn to bct. coach attendent didnot attend us to provide bedsheets, blankets and pillow covers etc. even after 8 hrs of journey. i tried to find him in pantry and other possible locations and asked many vendors but couldnot find him then i asked the ticket checker but he also didnot know. same time one co- passenger at aroun 7pm told me that attendent is sleeping inside the cupboard meant to store bedsheets and blanket etc. i woke him up and asked to give the bedsheets etc. he said straight that he doesnt have any as railway is not providing enough. i asked him to call superior and to bring complaint book but he didnot pay any heed.when i asked ticket checker again and asked him to provide complaint book then he asked attender to some bed sheets. attender then brought 4 bed shhets for 4 berth instead 8 and said itna hi hai itne se hi kaam chalao, despite repeated request to provide complaint book both attender and Tc didnot provide and said jo karna hai karlo. pantry person also charged rs 100 for each plate of veg. lunch and didnot provide any bill. the food was pathetic to say the least. this is just too much if consumer is denied getting basic facilities and cant even get complaint book to make a complain against the erring rly employees despite paying extra charges every time then better not to have any complaint book at all and leave the aam janta to suffer.my coach was B3, seats, 46, 57, 60 and 63.

trying hard not to drool on the page? Too many to count. I dreamed of knitting this sweater, thought about what yarn I would use, what techniques for its construction, how the cables would feel, how beautiful the finished sweater would be. But never once did I think that St. Enda would be a pretty quick knit.
When I cast on for this sweater back on October 6th, I was hoping that I would be able to finish it in time to give it to my son for the Winter Solstice holiday, but I wasn't optimistic that my time frame was realistic. In fact, I thought I was a first class fool to think that I could complete this sweater in only two-and-a-half months.
St. Enda has grown quite rapidly.
and, although sleeves seem to always take longer than you expect, I'm confident that, barring any unforeseen calamity, I'll have both sleeves done by the time December arrives on my doorstep.
Anyway, the knitting has gone very smoothly. The central cable looks complicated, and it does have a rather unusual increase that takes two rows to complete, but the directions are clear and the increase is simpler to do than it sounds.
Naturally, I'm not knitting the pattern as written. I toyed around with knitting it FLAK-style, all in one piece from the top down, starting with the saddles, but I was too intellectually lazy to do the math.☺ Instead, I started at the bottom, but I'm knitting in the round instead of flat so that I don't have to seam pieces together. I hate seaming. I also changed the bottom rib. Instead of doing the lovely cabled rib, I did a 2 x 2 rib instead. I'll do the same ribbing on the cuffs and the neckband when the time comes. The boy doesn't like his sweaters to be too frou-frou.
I was going to attach the saddles (aka shoulder straps) to the live shoulder stitches as I knitted the saddles, but I was afraid the stitches wouldn't be firm enough to hold the weight of the sweater without sagging or stretching out, so I ended up casting off the shoulder stitches and seaming them to the saddle.
This gives me a nice firm edge that will hold the weight of the sweater with no problem. The shoulder seams are the only seams in the entire sweater. Did I ever mention I hate seaming?
This is the point at which I must once again state unequivocally that I would never have had the confidence to change the method of construction had I not participated in Janet Szabo's Follow-the-Leader Aran Knit-Along (FLAK). Janet rules!

NYC Halloween Parade 2019
The next NYC Halloween Parade is on Wednesday, October 31, 2019 from 7 – 10:30pm. Lineup is at 6:30pm.
The Parade marches up Sixth Avenue. It lines up at Spring St in SoHo, marches through Greenwich Village and ends on 16th Street in Chelsea, Manhattan. After the Parade, the party continues in Chelsea and Greenwich Village.
You can also watch the fun on NY1 from 8 – 9:30pm.
NYC Halloween Parade
The NYC Halloween Parade is a fun New York City tradition because anyone in costume can walk in the parade for free.
Fifty to sixty thousand people join hundreds of giant puppets, floats, and over 50 bands from around the world for the parade up Sixth Avenue.
Small children may be scared, but the crowd is really friendly. As people stream out of the parade, Greenwich Village turns into a giant party until the wee hours.
There is nothing directly Latin about the parade, but we do have strong puppetry traditions in Spain, Puerto Rico and other Latin countries. Catrina will certainly be there. Show your stuff! In a way, the NYC Halloween Parade is Carnival for New Yorkers.
2018 NYC Halloween Parade
This year's theme is I AM a Robot!
Machine Dazzle. Courtesy the artist / NYC Halloween Parade.
The 2018 Grand Marshal is Machine Dazzle.
A special $25-30 advance ticket, and your Robot or Android costume gets you a secret entry without lines, a special DJ leading the group, and you'll be on TV. Meet other Robots!
It's $25 through October 22 and $30 after.
You can also just skip the line for $100.

Home Around The NFL NFL's Annual Hall of Fame Game Cancelled, Enshrinement Postponed
Kirby Lee-USA TODAY Sports
NFL's Annual Hall of Fame Game Cancelled, Enshrinement Postponed
Philip Schwegler
News broke this morning that the league's annual Hall of Fame Game, the NFL's kickoff to the season, will be canceled because of COVID-19. ESPN's Adam Schefter had the story regarding the league's change of plan.
The Dallas Cowboys-Pittsburgh Steelers preseason opener at the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio, on Aug. 6 is being canceled and the Hall of Fame's enshrinement ceremony on Aug. 8 is being postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic, league sources told ESPN.
— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) June 25, 2020
As Schefter has reported also, they will postpone the NFL's Hall of Fame enshrinement ceremony for the same reason. All this points to a shortened preseason as most analysts have speculated on in recent months. From the looks of how everything is slowly developing, we may not see football until early September.
Also reported by Schefter, the two teams slated to kick off the 2020 season being the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Dallas Cowboys, will lead off the 2021 season instead. This is the very first event canceled by the NFL amid the coronavirus pandemic.
As it has been reported earlier this week, clubs will supposedly report for training camp on July 28th. All of this, to include the Hall of Fame enshrinement ceremony, will be discussed later today during the NFL owner's virtual meeting.
Stay tuned to Bucs Report as the story develops.

Pet care company to build world headquarters in Missouri
March 21, 2019 By Alisa Nelson
Eastern Missouri's O'Fallon will be the future world headquarters for a longtime pet care manufacturing company. Cosmos Corporation, currently located in the nearby fast-growing community of Wentzville, plans to create 60 new full-time jobs through its expansion plans. The company, founded in 1985, says increased sales and consistent growth over the past few years has led the business to outgrow its existing Wentzville space.
Cosmos Corp. plans to complete construction of its future $25.7 million site and begin hiring by early 2020 for positions in manufacturing, administration and product management.
The company provides a variety of pet grooming, dental and natural flea and tick products under its TropiClean and Naturel Promise brand lines. The brands are available at nearly all major retailers, reaching a global audience in 65 countries and including over 150 products.
The business was created to support the Kassebaum family's efforts to serve those in need through faith-based mission work. Its nonprofit organization, Gifts of Love, will be co-located at the new O'Fallon headquarters. A significant portion of TropiClean's revenue goes directly to Gifts of Love to support the poor, widowed, orphaned and needy.
Through the organization, Cosmos has built a children's home in Guatemala, feeds over 800 children a day in Haiti, helps provide service dogs for autistic children in the U.S. and supports a horse ranch in Missouri for children in need.
Cosmos currently employs more than 100 people in the St. Louis area.
