Legislative Update: Deadlines under COVID Pressures
Today is the last day to amend bills in Sacramento. August 31 is the last day to reconcile bills in both houses. The legislative agenda has been pared to the bone, but pressure is high to get some kind of housing fixes passed. While the Judicial Council removed its moratorium on evictions during COVID, leaving it up to the legislature to fix, there is only one bill left that contains anything addressing evictions. The last-minute rush is not reassuring.
And housing isn't the only issue on the board; the legislature has also been considering – and rejecting, in some cases – bills dealing with other crucial issues.
Streetsblog California is tracking some of the bills. Below are some that are still alive – that is, they have passed the Appropriations Committees and are moving on to a floor vote – as well as some that have died. This list is far from comprehensive.
Housing, and Transportation
The only bill left standing after this week's Appropriations Committees that contains a semblance of eviction protections is A.B. 1436, the COVID Tenant and Homeowner Relief Act, which limits the ability of a landlord to kick a tenant out if they can't pay rent right now. It's been fought hard on both sides, with [racial justice] advocates calling for the legislature to protect tenants and recognize that "housing is an issue of racial justice" and landlords saying they would be forced to bear the burden of paying for layabout renters. The bill passed the Appropriations Committee, a major hurdle. It's still alive as of now.
Meanwhile Assemblymember Autumn Burke's "Right to Housing" bill, A.B. 2405, passed. This is a big deal, as it declares it a policy of the state "…that every individual has the right to safe, decent, and affordable housing." However, the bill was amended to removing language that required local governments to consider this policy when making decisions, which could become create problematic loophole.
Other housing bills that passed include a few that require housing to be approved by right: A.B 1851 would allow churches to build housing on their parking lots, and S.B. 1120 would allow accessory dwelling units to be built in single-family zones. A.B 725 encourages cities to zone for fourplexes by allowing them to use them towards their required Regional Housing Needs Assessment. S.B. 1138 would require cities to zone for and build homeless shelters, including in residential areas, if needed, by requiring them to update the housing elements of their general plan.
Two bills to simplify CEQA processes for transit and active transportation projects also got out of the committee. S.B. 757 would make certain transit projects easier. L.A. Metro sponsored this bill, which includes some of its "20×28" projects. It applies to "exclusive public mass transit guideway and related fixed facilities" that meet certain requirements and are approved by their lead agency before January 1, 2024.
Similarly, S.B. 288 extends a CEQA exemption for certain active transportation, transit, and charging and refueling infrastructure for ZEVs projects. They include wayfinding. It would sunset soon, though – in 2023. Apparently it was amended to eliminate the exemption for converting highway and HOV lanes to toll lanes, but that language has not yet shown up on the legislative info site.
Bills That Died
S.B. 1410 would have provided a different layer of protection for tenants, by requiring landlords to enter into an agreement for payment of back rent before they could commence eviction proceedings. It would also have offered landlords a tax credit of up to 80 percent for any delayed rent payments. It would have been a voluntary program, but was held in Appropriations.
A bill that would have given CEQA streamlining for developing more densely near transit, S.B. 902, died after a last-minute flurry of negotiations. Author Senator Scott Wiener tweeted out a clarification that "since there's been some speculation: The California Building Trades did *not* kill this bill. We worked collaboratively with the Trades & reached an agreement on the bill yesterday." The Trades Council for its part confirmed that "we were up late working with @Scott_Wiener on this particular bill." But their agreement, in the end, wasn't enough.
A bill that would have allowed building dense-ish housing on parcels within commercial zones, with some restrictions – S.B. 1385 – did not make it out of the committee.
Also dead are bills that would have required a state plan to address and reduce homelessness (A.B. 3269), one that would have provided state funds for homeless shelters (A.B. 3300) and another that would have provided money for emergency economic recovery and development, climate change, and disaster response (A.B. 795).
Two other housing bills, S.B. 899 that would have allowed hospitals, colleges, and religious institutions to build housing on their property by right, and A.B. 3040 that would have encouraged duplexes, triplexes, and fourplexes in single family zones, were also held back.
An important environmental justice bill that had strong support from a wide range of groups was killed earlier in the month. A.B. 345 failed to pass the Committee on Natural Resources. This bill called for the state to establish a minimum setback distance between oil wells and housing, schools, childcare facilities, playgrounds, residences, hospitals, and health clinics. Residents of Los Angeles, Long Beach, and Kern County are well versed with the health issues that arise from the presence of oil wells literally in their backyards, and have had little recourse for protecting themselves from the harm of living so close to working wells. As Steve Horn pointed out in The Real News, all of the legislators that voted against the bill have received large contributions from the oil industry and labor groups that opposed it.
One last, bike-related bill: A.B. 3153 would have provided incentives to build bike parking in new buildings, but it fell victim to the COVID emergency. According to CalBike:
The bill would not have made a huge impact on California's housing stock, because it provided an optional incentive (instead of a mandate) and would only have impacted new housing in some counties. But where it applied, it would have overridden local zoning laws, making an incredibly bold statement on behalf of sustainable transportation. Housing builders could have used this law to build less car parking and more bike parking than local regulations require, and local officials could not have prevented it. It would have encouraged new local ordinances to reduce car parking requirements and increase bike parking requirements in the name of local control.
Meanwhile, most places in California still have minimum car parking requirements, which add to housing costs, encourage driving, and contribute to the lack of safety for people on foot and on bikes.

Sisvel v Xiaomi, Court of Appeal of The Hague
17 March 2020 - Case No. C/09/573969/ KG ZA 19-462
http://caselaw.4ipcouncil.com/dutch-court-decisions/sisvel-v-xiaomi-court-appeal-hague
Damages Preliminary injunction Proportionality Provision of security Recall of products Rendering of accounts
A. Facts
Sisvel International S.A. (Sisvel) is the parent company of the Sisvel group [1] . In 2012, Sisvel acquired EP 1 129 536 B1 (EP 536) [2] . EP 536 relates to the EGPRS technology, which forms part of a GSM telecommunications standard that implements EDGE [3] .
Xiaomi is a manufacturer of mobile phones with headquarters in China [4] .
On 10 April 2013, Sisvel submitted to the European Telecommunication Standards Institute (ETSI) a declaration under which it committed to make a list of patents, including EP 536, accessible to standard users under Fair, Reasonable and Non-Discriminatory (FRAND) terms and conditions (FRAND commitment) [5] .
On 15 October 2013, Sisvel notified Xiaomi about its Wireless Patent Portfolio [3] . On 16 July 2014, Sisvel sent a letter to Xiaomi, inviting Xiaomi to contact Sisvel regarding to the conclusion of a licence [3] . Further e-mails were sent to Xiaomi on 3 December 2014, 4 December 2014 and 5 March 2015 [3] .
In an article dated 29 March 2019 published on nu.nl [6] and ad.nl [6] , Xiaomi announced that it would enter the Dutch market with online shops and physical stores [7] .
On 23 April 2019, Sisvel initiated legal proceedings against Xiaomi before the English High Court of Justice in London (English proceedings) [8] . Sisvel requested the court to declare that the terms and conditions of the MCP Pool Licence, under which EP 536 as part of the Wireless Patent Portfolio is licensed [9] , are FRAND or alternatively, to determine FRAND licensing terms and conditions and find three patents (including EP 536) to be valid and infringed [8] .
On 30 August 2019, Xiaomi filed two legal actions against Sisvel in Beijing [10] . Xiaomi asked, in one of the cases, the court to determine FRAND terms and conditions for a licence limited to China and, in the other case, to declare that Sisvel had abused its dominant position [3] .
In the Netherlands, Sisvel requested a preliminary injunction against Xiaomi, until Xiaomi accepts Sisvel's offer to go to arbitration, as well as the recall and destruction of products, information over profit made and additional documentation with respect to resellers, a penalty fee, and – as a subsidiary motion – the removal of the EGPRS/EDGE extension of the GSM functionality [11] . With judgment dated 1 August 2019, the Court of The Hague rejected Sisvel's claims in first instance and sentenced Sisvel to the process costs, in view of the balance of interests between the parties and the complexity of the case [12] .
Sisvel appealed the first instance decision on 29 August 2019 [13] . During the course of the appeal proceedings, on 22 January 2020, Xiaomi deposited funds [14] on an escrow account held by Intertrust [15] . With the present judgment, the Court of Appeal of The Hague (Court) rejected Sisvel's appeal and sentenced Sisvel to higher process costs [16] .
B. Court's reasoning
The Court focused on the balance of interests between the parties.
The Court considered that the harm caused to Sisvel by the infringement of EP 536 was limited, taking into account only infringing uses in the Netherlands, as well as the fact that EP 536 is only one out of many patents held by Sisvel, and almost expired [17] . Considering that Sisvel's business model is to conclude licences, Sisvel did not have to fear damages caused by free riding on the cellphone market, but only damages resulting from denied profits under a license [18] . Therefore, only financial damages could incur which the Court considers to be relatively simply compensated at a later point in time [19] . Additionally, Xiaomi had provided security [19] . The security addresses the problem raised by Sisvel, i.e. Xiaomi becoming insolvent and unable to pay damages for patent infringement [3] .
With respect to Xiaomi's interest, the Court noted that an injunction would force Xiaomi to stop sales, close shops in the Netherlands and stop its distribution contracts with customers [20] . The consequences would thus be severe and could hardly be undone, even if Xiaomi could resume sales again after the expiration of EP 536 [3] . The only way for Xiaomi to avoid those consequences would be to take a license, which also brings important consequences. Indeed, the MCP license offered by Sisvel is not only for EP 536 but for more than 1000 patents in all countries worldwide [21] . By accepting a licence Xiaomi would be irrevocably bound to comply with it, including with its rate [22] . The stop of sales in the Netherlands would create loss of profits for Xiaomi and worsen its relationships with its customers [3] . The Court highlighted such damages are difficult to evaluate as Xiaomi is still building its market position and there are many other players on the market [3] .
The Court further argued that the case was complex for a preliminary decision, because it required an opinion on the validity and scope of a patent protecting a complex technology as well as an assessment of Xiaomi's FRAND defence, for which parties have arguments over many facts and the principles to determine a FRAND rate [23] . Additionally, the court that would be entrusted with the main proceedings could have a different opinion on the validity of the technology and the FRAND defence [3] . Therefore, the Court concluded there was no reason, even if the patent was valid and the FRAND defence had to be rejected, to force Xiaomi to leave the Dutch market or to take a licence from Sisvel [3] . The Court found that Xiaomi's interest to reject the request for a preliminary injunction was stronger than Sisvel's interest to stop the continuation of the infringement [23] .
The Court also rejected Sisvel's claim that Xiaomi was an unwilling licensee [24] . Such claim could be used to invalidate Xiaomi's FRAND defence, but the Court stated that the examination of Xiaomi's FRAND defence had to be separated from the balance of interests' assessment in preliminary proceedings [3] .
Reviewing Sisvel's request based on the EU enforcement directive 2004/48 and Article 9 of such directive did not lead the Court to another conclusion: in light of the enforcement directive, the injunction would not be proportionate in this case, therefore the Court had no obligation to use Article 9 of the EU enforcement directive [25] .
Even in combining the application of Article 3 of the EU enforcement directive, Article 5, 17 and 47 of the European Charter of Fundamental Rights the Court came to the same interpretation: an injunction for the limited remaining time of EP 536 would not help [26] . The lack of an injunction would not unreasonably delay the case as the Court argued that the effective remedy would be compensation for the damages in main proceedings [3] . Additionally, the Court found this conclusion to be supported by the fact that Sisvel had only initiated main proceedings against other parties in the Netherlands and abroad [3] .
Sisvel's claim that the lack of an injunction would create an unfair playing field between market participants was also rejected by the Court [27] . The Court stated that Xiaomi's security and the possibility for Sisvel to get compensation for damages in main proceedings created an equal playing field [3] . Sisvel had relied on a decision of the Dutch Supreme Court, according to which a patent can only be effectively protected if there is a quick stop to further infringement [28] . The Court explained that this is the case only when the damages for patent infringement are difficult to determine; this was, however, not the case here [3] .
The Court rejected Sisvel's claim that the deposit on the escrow account had been made in such a way that it would be impossible for Sisvel to get paid [29] . Indeed, the Court underlined that Sisvel can unilaterally reclaim payment, especially if a FRAND rate is determined in the English proceedings [3] . Moreover, Xiaomi declared itself to be ready to adapt the amount placed on the escrow account in close cooperation with Sisvel, if Sisvel wishes to do so or has requests about the escrow account [3] . The Court noted it did not seem Sisvel made use of this possibility to adapt the amount [3] .
The amount deposited for fees under Sisvel's MCP Patent Licence was considered as sufficient by the Court for the products sold in the Netherlands for the lifetime of EP 536 [30] . The Court added that this would still be the case even in the event that Sisvel wanted to increase the licensing rate for non-compliant users or to account for profits based on the infringement [3] . The Court underlined that in the Huawei v. ZTE decision of the CJEU [31] , the security had to be "appropriate", which depends on the context of the FRAND defence [3] .
Recall and destruction of products
Sisvel's request to have infringing products recalled and destroyed, as well as all mentions about those products removed, resellers informed and profits provided was rejected by the Court [32] . Sisvel had asserted the same urgent interest as for the preliminary injunction to support this request: stopping and preventing infringement of EP 536. Since the request for a preliminary injunction failed, the further claims asserted by Sisvel had to follow the same fate [3] . The Court stated that there was no urgent interest to have Xiaomi disclosing its profits, or at least that was more important than having Xiaomi keeping this information confidential [3] . Sisvel did also not explain why profits data should be disclosed in advance of the main proceedings [3] .
C. Other important issues
The Court also denied Sisvel's request to grant a preliminary injunction, as long as Xiaomi did not agree to initiating arbitration procedures [33] . The Court argued that if Xiaomi would be forced to have an arbitration tribunal determining the terms and conditions for all patents of the MCP Patent Licence for the whole world, this would deprive Xiaomi of its fundamental right of access to a court [3] . The acceptance of such arbitration proposal without conditions would have drastic consequences on Xiaomi's position [3] .

Meet The Acer V9800, A 4K UHD Home Cinema Projector
Jason Bouwmeester | January 12, 2019 May 28, 2016
Home Theater, Press Releases, Tech
Among other announcements that Acer made at Computex is one that's sure to excite home theatre enthusiasts. The Acer V9800 is a 4K UHD Home Cinema Projector which features a native UHD (3840×2160) resolution and Rec 709 specification for faithful colors and tones.
The Acer V9800 will feature a TI 4K DMD processor, and the super-resolution video engine allows the projector to upscale and enhance lower resolution content. The V9800 also follows the Rec 709 protocol set by the International Telecommunications Union.
Rec 709 is an industry color specification that allows a viewing device (TV, monitor or projector) to recreate colors exactly as they've been imagined by the director. The Rec 709 specification digitally defines the color identity during post-production, which allows a compatible projector to recognize and decode the film's intended visual feeling.
As a result, the V9800 4K UHD Home Cinema Projector is able to faithfully reproduce the original colors and tones of content, and in addition to that, the projector also features an sRGB mode to guarantee consistency and high-quality contrast.
Acer's ColorPurity technology is applied to the V9800, combining a RGBRGB color wheel with unique lamp control techniques, resulting in a wider color gamut and reduced rainbow effects, allowing the viewer to experience pure reds, rich greens and deep blues for amazingly realistic viewing.
The projector also operates at only 20 dBA, allowing movie aficionados to hear even the quietest sounds and whispers, enhancing the movie watching experience. Exact pricing, specifications and availability will vary by region and we'll keep you posted once we find out more.
What do you think about the Acer V9800 4K UHD Home Cinema Projector? Let us know in the comments below, or on Google+, Twitter, or Facebook.

Police: Woman was killed by onetime love interest
TAMARA LUSH
SEMINOLE - A woman who flew from Colorado to Florida to reconnect with an old flame turned up dead days later, and her onetime boyfriend killed himself as investigators zeroed in on him as the prime suspect, authorities said.
Charlie Enice Brooks, 36, was found dead in a canal Monday, her skull bashed in with a rock, said Pinellas County Sheriff Bob Gualtieri.
A day earlier, surveillance video at Tampa International Airport showed her hugging and then holding hands with Joseph Pope at an airport terminal.
Her body was found near a dock two doors down from where Pope lived with his parents and siblings.
Police had identified Pope, 36, as the killer - but he shot and killed himself before they could make an arrest. Gualtieri said the case is now closed.
Pope told investigators he didn't know Brooks. A neighbor had seen a woman fitting her description at his house, but Pope said it was probably one of his sisters.
Investigators found a plastic bag containing gloves, bloody clothing and a large, bloody rock. In a second plastic bag, officers found more bloody clothes and pieces of Brooks' skull.
How Brooks and Pope reconnected, and why he would have killed her, remain unclear. The nature of their relationship years ago as teenagers was also unclear. No one answered the door at Pope's mint green home on the Intracoastal Waterway in an upscale neighborhood on Thursday morning.
"There's a lot of things here we'll never know the answers to," Gualtieri said at a news conference Wednesday.

Watch the Gorgeous New Trailer for Beauty and the Beast
By Joe Allen | November 14, 2016 | 9:58am
Image via Disney/YouTube Movies Video Beauty and the Beast
The Beast is back in the castle. The newest trailer for Disney's live-action remake of Beauty and the Beast is here, and it's much heavier on plot than the first teaser was.
In the trailer, we see much more of Emma Watson's Belle, who enters the castle to save her father before being made a prisoner by the Beast (Dan Stevens). The trailer also gives us looks at Kevin Kline as Belle's father, Luke Evans as Gaston, Emma Thompson as Mrs. Potts and Ian McKellan as Cogsworth.
Alan Menken, the legendary composer behind the animated Beauty and the Beast, has written three new ballads for the live-action film. The film will also feature unused lyrics penned by the late Howard Ashman, who wrote lyrics for the 1991 film.
Beauty and the Beast has a high bar to clear, considering the power the animated film still holds in the minds of many. Directed by Bill Condon, the remake is set to hit theaters on March 17. Until then, check out the fairly gorgeous trailer above, and the first teaser here.

When I came to Northwestern I couldn't wait to watch sports! From the second I stepped onto campus in the fall, I knew it was DEFINITELY going to be our year. And the football team definitely almost didn't disappoint! There were all those times where we came really close to winning! We would dominate for a long time but for some reason, we just couldn't keep it rolling through the fourth quarter. Oh well, who cares about those last minute touchdowns anyways?
My favorite part was when we'd all shake our keys at the players. It's so funny that we thought that would distract the kicker! I was heartbroken when we were robbed of a chance at a bowl game (I thought being such a big contender in the Big 10 would at least get us SOMETHING) but at least we won the Land of Lincoln trophy!
Then it came time for basketball! Nothing says college sports and campus-wide school spirit like legendary Welsh-Ryan Arena. The state-of-the-art facilities are just spectacular and draw top basketball talent from across the country.
No wonder our season is going so well! I'm guessing with about one more win we'll make it to the March Madness tournament. It's our time! Year after year we get SO CLOSE but it's never enough. I think it's because the other teams are jealous of how smart we are. All the other teams in the Big Ten know we could be Ivy League so they feel dumb!
You'd never guess how nerdy we are from our student section though. It was CRAZY tonight. I mean, it always is! We Wildcats are so good at cheering. It's nice of Wildside to reward us with those t-shirts, but I don't even care about that! It's about getting hundreds of students together to get wild for our sports teams!!
I'm so glad I came to a school with so much athletic spirit. My other choice was Ohio State and I don't think I could handle that rigorous career-focused curriculum. That's why Northwestern is perfect! We have the perfect balance of sports and academics. Go! U Northwestern!


Cut sweet potato in half lengthwise. Wrap and store one half for another use. Cut the remaining half in half crosswise. Cut each half lengthwise into 1-inch thick wedges. In a covered medium saucepan, cook sweet potato wedges in enough boiling water to cover for 8 to 10 minutes or just until tender; drain well. Pat dry with paper towels.
In a small bowl, combine oregano, garlic powder, salt, and cinnamon. Coat sweet potato wedges with cooking spray. Sprinkle evenly with oregano mixture.
For a charcoal grill, place potato wedges on the rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium coals. Grill for 3 to 5 minutes or until potato wedges are lightly browned, turning once halfway through grilling. (For a gas grill, preheat grill. Reduce heat to medium. Place potato wedges on grill rack over heat. Cover and grill as above).
To serve, sprinkle potato pieces with cilantro.


This southern turtle recipe can be seasoned as spicy as you wish.

With the ever-growing emphasis on the importance of sound evidence in healthcare decision-making and policy, the power of data-informed mathematical models to provide much needed insight is substantial. In order for conclusions drawn from a mathematical model to be reliable, it is essential for unknown model parameters to be estimated from data in a statistically sound manner and to fully account for uncertainty in the parameter values. Interest has been growing, both domestically and internationally, in developing new methods for parameter estimation in mathematical models of infectious diseases.

According to insiders, Romney liked Christie's 'fighter' personality.
Christie was Mitt's VP first choice

One of the most tantalizing subplots of the 2012 campaign has been the curious and sometimes controversial performances of New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie. Now, campaign insiders tell POLITICO that Christie was Mitt Romney's first choice for the Republican ticket, lending an intriguing new context to the continuing drama around the Garden State governor.
The strong internal push for Christie, and Romney's initial instinct to pick him as his running mate, reflects how conflicted the nominee remained about choosing a running mate until the very end of the process. At least on the surface, Christie and Paul Ryan are about as opposite as two Republicans could be: a brash outsider from the Northeast versus a bookish insider from the heartland.

And yet Romney switched from Christie to Ryan in a span of about two weeks, according to a detailed inside account provided to POLITICO.
Romney was so close to picking Christie that some top advisers at the campaign's Boston headquarters believed the governor had been offered the job. The campaign made tentative plans to announce a pick in late July, just before Romney headed off on his overseas trip, starting with a stop at the London Olympics.
"Mitt liked him because he saw him as a street fighter," a Romney official said. "It's the kind of political mentality that Romney doesn't have, but admires. He wanted someone who could play the Chicago game [like Obama headquarters] on its own terms."

In fact, Christie was never the final choice. Romney hit "pause" on the possibility shortly before his trip to the Olympics. Then he settled on Ryan the day after returning. Romney formally offered him the job within a week, leaving Christie hanging until shortly before the official announcement a week later.
Some Christie supporters were irritated to discover that the House budget chairman had been picked so long before the New Jersey governor had been told, meaning that he and other also-rans had remained as decoys. These supporters said at the time that Christie deserved more of a heads -up after being led on so strongly.
People involved in the selection process said the campaign believed there was no one who would be more adept and persuasive at delivering Romney's message. Advisers thought Christie would excel at retail campaigning among working-class voters.

"He'd be great anywhere there are ordinary white men," the official said. "They would have loved him because here's this straight-talking, hard-charging, in-your-face guy, and he's a man's man. Ohio is the only battleground state where Mitt has a net negative gender gap — where his approval among men doesn't outweigh the president's approval among women. Chris Christie changes that."
Christie started the campaign season by flirting with his own run for president, then ended it with effusive praise for the man he would have run against — and starred in several campaign dramas in between. In typical Christie fashion, there has been nothing understated about his role at each critical point, culminating with his tour with President Barack Obama on Marine One this week as they surveyed Sandy's havoc along the Jersey Shore.
The New Jersey governor endeared himself to Romney and the Boston team with his early endorsement, right after giving up his own bid. This was early in the primary campaign — October 2011 — and there were seven other candidates in the race. So the endorsement wasn't easy, and it meant a lot to Romney.
During the long winter slog through the early contests, Christie spoke privately with Romney in long cell phone calls on the road. Romney liked Christie's fearless advice — unvarnished talk that he wasn't used to hearing from his cocoon of Boston advisers, many of whom had been with him since he was Massachusetts governor.
Christie was one of the campaign's most popular surrogates, and he barnstormed with Romney in Iowa, drawing hearty applause for lines like, "Let me tell ya: After three years of Obama, we are hopeless and changeless."
Some aides around Romney began to sour on Christie when he was late to a couple of events where they were appearing together. "Chris is a sort of cavalier New York, New Jersey guy: 'If I'm a few minutes behind, I'll blame it on traffic,'" said a person who knows him well. "That's just who he is."
The tardiness rankled the by-the-book folks around Romney. As the vice-presidential selection ramped up, Christie was always at the top of the list, but always with an asterisk.
Some Romney loyalists thought he was too much about himself.
"He wouldn't make a good Number Two," one adviser said. That is a point that Christie often made himself, when brushing off talk that he would be chosen.
Advisers also fretted about the raw emotion that makes Christie so popular on TV and on the trail, fearing it might be a liability in the West Wing. In blunt language that Christie can appreciate, another official said: "The explosiveness had some risk."
Romney was willing to overlook those reservations, and people close to the process describe a frenzy of vetting around Christie in mid-July. Then the intense back-and-forth suddenly halted, although Christie supporters in the campaign's inner circle remained hopeful that he would still be picked after the foreign trip.
"It could still have happened," said a person involved in the process.
Instead, the prize went to Ryan, leaving some bitterness in Christie's camp about how the delicate courting process had ended.
These ruffled feathers got a public airing on the first day of the Republican National Convention in Tampa. With Christie as the convention's keynote speaker, the front page of the New York Post blared that he had turned Romney down.
"Revealed: the secret reason Chris would not run for VP," the cover said. The inside article reported that Christie "wasn't willing to give up the New Jersey statehouse to be Mitt Romney's running mate because he doubted they'd win."
Christie fell further from favor in Romney's inner circle when his convention speech, which campaign officials had approved, dwelled more on the Chris Christie story than on the Mitt Romney story.
"His view was, 'They saw the speech before I gave it. They vetted it. They said it was fine,'" recalled a Romney adviser. "And the campaign's view was, 'We told him that we thought there were more opportunities for him to put in stuff about Mitt, and he didn't take the hint.' There was a lot of agitation that led to a lot of sarcasm and the kind of comments that people don't mean, but they kind of do."
The differences were papered over. Now, some Romney friends and donors are irked by Christie's embrace of Obama this week, which one referred to as "over the top."
"If Romney wins, it won't be forgotten," the adviser said. "If Romney loses, it doesn't matter."

Githead, El Mocambo, Toronto 29 June 2009 -- a review
Githead:
Robin Rimbaud (Scanner)
Malka Spigel
Max Franken
I must confess that I find Githead problematic. Until recently, I didn't understand the concept. Colin is thoughtfully intuitive but every project he does has a reason. I couldn't pin it down.
Githead clearly isn't a Colin Newman project, though in being its primary voice most people might assume as such. There is a layer that is Mr. Newman but really, that's where he ends. As I found, each individual in the group has their own layer contributing to the whole-- although not like an onion, or geology. Githead feels like swimming in the Great Lakes here in Canada. As you move through the depths, there are stratums of hot and cold, clarity and murkiness. If it were an onion, or core sample, it would be so much easier to understand. Fluid dynamics is a messy, blurry business. Heading into the show I was hoping to see the side of Githead unintelligible from the songs and videos. Perhaps it was pathetic irony that the skies opened up and drenched the city.
I've had some fairly bad experiences lately with start times of bands. For some reason it seems that bands start earlier than I remember and having missed the beginning of a number of sets recently, I arrived uncharacteristically early to a near empty room. Toronto shows are difficult to begin with. It can take a long time for an audience here to warm up if at all and, being a Monday, it was looking unpromising. I should have had more faith in tradition as the room filled. Eventually, Colin, Malka, Robin and Max took their place among the crowd and settled in. I am used to the headliner--especially one with their collective resume-- not showing themselves until the beginning of their set. Band as audience. More blur.
The Two Koreas climbed to the stage. Tight and dynamic, it seemed like they could hold their own. By the second song the motorik styled bass and beats tasting of a hybridized La Düsseldorf and PiL was compelling. Still, as hard as the band tried to reel them in the audience stayed out of reach. Vocalist Stuart Berman jumped into the chasm in an attempt to engage. Beyond the challenge of the audience, the motorik seemingly stalled because, unlike the source comparisons, they were missing one thing. Songs. As Kubrick said of one contemporary director, "it's all bun". There seems to be enough talent and energy to make some sausage. I'm willing to wait and see.
After a brief pause between acts (I don't recall any music played over the PA), the band disappeared behind stage and reappeared taking their positions. It takes a moment to start up as they plug into the Two Koreas' equipment. Odd that the headliner doesn't show up properly suited. This moment provided me with the clarity I needed for the rest of the night. Githead is a loose confederacy of interests. Colin hinted at the ad hoc nature of the band the previous week. This moment congealed the idea of improvisation as its very reason for being. Githead is a moment in time and place. Step into the lake, move through the layers, and let it wash over you.
Not recognizing the opening song "Faster", "Fake Corpses" was up next, with its strangely summery groove set against Colin's beat lyrical rhythm. This is what Colin does well. The first impression of Githead was that, at least where Colin was concerned, nothing has changed. This perplexed me at first. I like everything Colin has offered musically over the years and while I like change, why should he change when he still delivers? Here, in the spirit provided, the delivery couldn't be any better. The most innovative thing accomplished is convincing Rimbaud to give up Scanner for Strummer. The open secret is that, until Githead, Robin hasn't played the guitar since he was 16 years old. This pays off as he provides the melodic beauty of "Fake Corpses". The line sounds like it could be a step-sequenced computerized bit, but Rimbaud's translation refreshes. When they head into "Drop" the point is driven home. Malka's bass is fluid, more so than the recorded version, and contributes immeasurably to the groove and the feel of the experience. Even with half the band staring at laptops, you get the sense that not much is planned. Performance is the order of the day.
"Drive By" sets a more aggressive tenor than what came before. What follows is possibly my only criticism. The show's sound didn't live up to the dynamics of the songs. Perhaps it's the nature of using borrowed equipment but I like how one is thrown around by the change in tone between songs on the recorded material. It didn't ruin the night but it's not an insignificant detail. This was especially noticeable on the tunes where Malka took the mike. There is a wispy dreaminess at times on Artpop that didn't substantially materialize during the show.
An unrehearsed track "Take Off" leads the encore. No matter, there is a comfort onstage that masks the fact. "Profile" was the last-- a clean finish.
By the end of the evening, the skies had cleared and there was a chill in air. As the band climbed into a cab to make their way to their airport hotel, I choose not to do the same and rather allow the buoyancy of the evening and my feet carry me to my west end home-- happy to immerse myself in the evening's current.

The translator for the Japanese edition of The Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill, Masayoshi Kobayashi, sent me an electronic image of the cover this weekend. The book has been printed and will be released between January 15 and 20. I'm very happy about this. It's my first overseas edition. They changed the title to Observation Sketches (Record, Description, Notes) on the Wild Parrots in the City, thinking that Telegraph Hill wouldn't mean anything to most Japanese. That's fine with me. There are a number of references to Japan and Japanese culture in the book—particularly Zen. I hope it resonates. I would like to thank Masayoshi who read my book in English, liked it, and took it upon himself to find a Japanese publisher. I'll be getting my own copy in a week or so. Looking forward to that!

Q: Changing images with right or left arrow key I've built this gallery
https://jsfiddle.net/ramamamagagaulala/do4yLxcz/
let images = document.querySelectorAll('.work-item');
let best = document.querySelector('.work-modal');
let main = document.querySelector('.work-modal__item');

console.log(images)

let closeButton = document.getElementById("closee");

images.forEach(function(ref) {

ref.addEventListener('click', function(){
  let newImage = this.getElementsByTagName('img')[0].src;

  best.classList.add('work-modal--show');
  main.style.backgroundImage = `url( ${newImage} )`;
})

})

closeButton.addEventListener('click', function() {
  best.classList.remove('work-modal--show');
});

basically, it works like this:

*

*you click an item.

*JavaScript checks what IMG this item contains.

*a modal window opens up.

*then the IMG that is associated with the item, is going to be displayed as the background image of this modal.

So far so good, however, I would like to build a function so I can press the arrow keys on my keyboard and the next image is going to be displayed.
What I've tried is to select the IMG of the nextSibling while clicking. Then I have used this variable to set up the background image of the modal window. But this only worked once.
Any ideas what to try next?

A: I would suggest have list of images urls in an array in .js file, and then you show one modal, click right/left and just change img src value to next/previous array element, untill get to either end of array.

A: There are three things we need to do for this problem

*

*Storing the image source in an array

*Keep track of the position of the image index

*Add an event listener to track the keypress for next & prev button on your keyboard

Afghans Wary of Trump's Pledge to Challenge Terrorists & Islamabad
November 5, 2017 | Ali M. Latifi
Photo: Salwar Kameez/iStock.com
Jalalabad, AFGHANISTAN – When Donald Trump announced his administration's strategy for Afghanistan, it was welcomed by Kabul's leaders and other Afghan urban centers. Influential figures in politics, business, security and the media saw it as much-needed change from President Barack Obama's stopwatch approach to the 16-year-long U.S. involvement in the nation.
Almost three months later, Afghans in the country's more remote regions have seen increased military operations against militants, that often catches civilians in the crossfire: case in point, the alleged U.S.-led coalition strike over the weekend in northern Kunduz that locals say killed more than a dozen civilians.
The rising tempo of operations come as the top U.S. watchdog in Afghanistan says the Taliban and other the armed groups seem to be winning, expanding their control over the population over the last six months.
"The situation is bad," said Mohammad, a truck driver in Jalalabad in the eastern province of Nangarhar – an oft-contested area for militants, who crisscross the nearby border with Pakistan. "We can't go out at night anymore. That's when the fighting starts."
Afghans like him living near Pakistan's border are also concerned that Trump's tough talk accusing Islamabad of turning a blind eye to terrorists could trigger Pakistan to retaliate indirectly — encouraging its Taliban contacts to up the fighting in Afghanistan.
Those fears coupled with the rising violence raise questions about whether the increased U.S. military assistance is arriving fast enough, in great enough numbers – an extra 3,000 that should bring U.S. numbers to north of 14,000 troops — and whether the new Trump strategy risks alienating the very people it's trying to protect.
The fears come as new reports emerge from Chardara district in the northern province of Kunduz, where airstrikes carried out late Friday evening and into early morning Saturday left at least 13 civilians dead, according to local reports.
Mawlawi Dost Mohammad Nasratyar, a member of the Kunduz provincial council, said at least 14 civilians, including women and children, were killed and another 13 injured.
"There were 14 graves dug yesterday," Nasratyar told The Cipher Brief.
Since the district has long been under Taliban control, the exact toll of the strikes has yet to be determined. U.S. and Afghan officials say they have launched investigations into the reports of civilian casualties.
The Taliban has been gaining territory throughout the country, along with at least 19 other armed groups. The latest quarterly report to Congress from the Special Investigator General for Afghanistan Reconstruction finds that 11.4 percent of the population, more than 3.7 million Afghans, live in areas under the control or influence of the armed opposition. That's an increase of more than 700,000 people under Taliban rule from six months prior.
When the Afghan government and backed by coalition air power fights back, civilians get caught in the crosshairs.
In their October report on civilian casualties, the United Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan, found a 52% increase in civilian casualties from pro-government (foreign and Afghan) air operations in the first nine months of 2017. UNAMA attributed 177 or 38% of all civilian casualties from airstrikes to international military forces. The U.S. military only confirm 43 civilian casualties from international airstrikes during that period.
Trolling Pakistan
Direct hostilities aren't the only worry for Afghans living in contested areas. Those near the border with Pakistan worry that Trump's tough talk will upset trade or worse – in contrast to the reaction of the Afghan government and influential Afghans in urban areas. Many of them saw Trump's Aug. 21 announcement as Washington siding with Kabul against a country Afghans have long accused of aiding and abetting the armed opposition, including the Taliban. For years, the Kabul government has accused Pakistan and other regional neighbors of conducting an "imposed war" in Afghanistan.
"Pakistan often gives safe haven to agents of chaos, violence, and terror," Trump said during his speech on his new Afghan strategy at Fort Myer, Virginia.
During his visit to Pakistan last month, Secretary of State Rex Tillerson reportedly presented Islamabad with a list of 20 armed groups believed to be operating in Pakistan, including those that conduct attacks on Afghan soil.
On Friday, Omid Maisam, a spokesman for the chief executive Abdullah Abdullah, said failure to act on the list — which includes the Haqqani Network, a Taliban-allied group that has been accused of carrying out some of the deadliest attacks in Afghanistan — will mean only mean further troubles for the region as a whole.
"An honest cooperation should be established in the region to improve the situation," Maisam said.
But near the border with Pakistan in Nangarhar province, Afghans worry that Trump's tough talk on Pakistan could spur wider conflict between the two countries, especially his promise that Washington "will not say when we are going to attack, but attack we will."
That's being interpreted as Trump threatening to launch U.S. strikes against militants in Pakistan, perhaps returning to the tempo of drone strikes under the Obama administration aimed at militants in Pakistan's frontier region.
Afghans fear that could push Islamabad to retaliate indirectly by stoking violence among armed groups in Afghanistan; or by shutting down its borders to damage Afghan trade — and coalition military supply routes.
In the past, when the main Torkham and Chaman crossings between Afghanistan and Pakistan have been closed, it strangled the Afghan economy and stranded thousands of trucks full of perishable goods stuck at crossings on both sides.
"In the end, Pakistan will do what they see as good for themselves, not anyone else," said Anar Gul, a truck driver who has been driving from Pakistan across the Durand Line to Afghanistan for more than a decade.
"They are our neighbor, but they haven't acted in good faith with us before, why start now," he said.
Pakistan's military chief, General Qamar Javed Bajwa, echoed that sentiment in an August meeting with the US envoy to Pakistan.
"We have done a lot … and shall keep on doing our best, not to appease anyone but in line with our national interest and national policy," Bajwa said in publicly reported remarks.
Afghan officials believe the fear of increased anti-Afghan sentiments in Pakistan is not unfounded. In September, Afghan officials said 1,500 rockets landed in the eastern Afghan province of Kunar from Pakistan. Afghanistan lodged an official complaint to the United Nations about the cross-border shelling, accusing Pakistani military forces of a "consistent breach of Afghanistan's territorial integrity."
Last month, Islamabad started fencing the border between Afghanistan and Pakistan. The Pakistani military described the planned 2,500 kilometer barbed-wired fence as "an epoch shift in the border control management system of Pakistan and Afghanistan."
Gulab Mangal, governor Nangarhar fears that the fence will only increase resentment and separate families.
"The fence will definitely create a lot of trouble for the people along the border on both sides but no wall or fence can separate these tribes … I urge the tribes to stand against this action," Mangal told Reuters last month.
Sikandar Shah, a Nangarhar resident who has been driving between the two nations for 30 years, agrees.
"There are Muslims and Pashtuns on both sides of the line," he said. "Why isn't Trump working to try and bring us together rather than further driving us apart?"

Tottenham chasing Premier League winning defender – report
By Game of Eleven August 18, 2021
Tottenham are keen on signing Chelsea defender Kurt Zouma, according to Sky Sports.
Nuno Espirito Santo has already added Cristian Romero, who made his debut against Man City on Sunday, to his squad, but is still hoping to bring in another defender before the window closes later this month.
Sky Sports had previously reported that Spurs were chasing Fiorentina centre-back Nikola Milenkovic after failing to secure a deal for versatile Bologna defender Takehiro Tomiyasu.
And the same outlet now believe Santo has turned his attentions to Zouma, who was an unused substitute in Chelsea's opening day win over Crystal, and been rarely used since the arrival of Thomas Tuchel.
West Ham have also been interested in the Frenchman, who wants to remain in London – with Chelsea setting an asking-price of £25m for his services.
But whilst a player with Premier League experience would be a smart decision from Spurs, doing business with Chelsea is another matter, making the deal an unlikely one to happen.
