Home Technology Motorola Moto G Pure is an easy bargain
The Moto G Pure is the rare $160 phone that works well enough that you forget you're using a sub-$200 device. Yes, Motorola made some compromises to deliver a phone at this low price point, but it still nails all the basics that you should care about: good build quality, good battery life, and good cameras for the price.
That is not to say the Moto phone is perfect. Its processor is just a second slower in most tasks, it only works on 4G networks, and its paltry 32GB of internal storage is just not enough space to use for long. But for its price, it's hard to argue against the Moto G Pure — it gets a lot right.
Main camera more usable than expected
Laggy processor
Insufficient internal storage
Camera app UI makes zooming difficult
No fast-charging
For a big phone with a 6.5-inch screen, the Moto G Pure feels relatively compact, measuring 0.34-inch thick and weighing 0.41lbs. Thanks to its rounded corners and sloped edges, the G Pure is comfortable to hold for long stretches, though it's a bit tall (the screen has a 20:9 aspect ratio) to use single-handed for my small hands.
Available in deep indigo, the G Pure has a subtle sheen to its textured, matte back cover. Its plastic material is very hard and slippery, despite that texture. In fact, I've lost count of the number of times the phone has magically slipped off an ottoman or table and still works. Yes, this $160 Moto phone is quite durable, but I wouldn't test the smartphone gods — you'll still be better off with a case.
It has a snappy fingerprint sensor under the Motorola logo, as well as Face Unlock to give you a hands-free option to unlock your phone. I like that the Moto software gives you more control over how this works. You can use your face to unlock the phone (no need to press the power button first), and ask the phone to bring you to the last app or webpage that was opened (rather than the lockscreen). With good lighting, Face Unlock works well enough, but the fingerprint sensor is faster and more consistent.
For a big phone with a 6.5-inch screen, the Moto G Pure feels relatively compact.
Hardware & Performance
As part of the cost cutting to hit the G Pure's low price, Motorola decided to use a weak processor and minimal RAM, and it shows. At the heart of the Moto phone is the MediaTek Helio G25 processor, which is comparable to the Qualcomm Snapdragon 439 but actually lags behind that 2018 Snapdragon chipset. Everything from opening a website, switching between apps, to opening the camera app to take a photo just takes an extra second on the Moto phone. While this doesn't sound like much, those extra seconds really add up over the course of a day and can make you question your sanity.
It has just 3GB of RAM to support its under-powered processor and a meager 32GB of internal storage. At this point, 32GB is simply not enough capacity for a phone, especially when most people are hanging onto their phones for longer. After just two weeks of light use — installing updates and a few apps, plus taking some photos — I've already burned through 18.04GB (56 percent of storage) on the G Pure. With Motorola promising one OS update and two years of security updates, you'll likely run out of space before you run out of software support. Good thing it has a microSD card slot, where you can expand its limited capacity with up to a 512GB card.
Under the Motorola logo is the Moto G Pure's fingerprint sensor for securing your phone against intruders.
The G Pure's 6.5-inch LCD screen may look vibrant with its brightness set to 100 percent, but it is only a 720p display, with a low 269 pixel density. At 1600 x 720p resolution, The Spider-Man: No Way Home Trailer looks more pixelated and dim on the Moto than on the OnePlus 9's 2K display. Day to day, you probably wouldn't notice just how low-res the display is, but if you have any higher-quality screens in your life, it will stand out and not in a good way.
I played some Pokemon Unite to stress test it, and performance was better than I expected, at least once I was able to launch the game fully. It took three tries and multiple force quits on it before I could actually play. Once the game finally loaded, I was able to move my pokemon around the battlefield without lag, with the battle music blaring from the lone speaker.
it's hard to deny that the Moto G Pure will be good enough for most people
Using only 4G service to test the G Pure's 4,000mAh battery, I spent the day toggling between two email accounts, sharing content on Twitter and Hangouts, and playing some Pokemon Unite. The G Pure stayed cool to the touch no matter how much I was stressing it. Although the battery didn't quite live up to the two days of use claim from Motorola, I got about 16 hours out of it (or about seven hours of screentime) before needing to hit the charger. Don't expect a fast charge, though: It took me about two hours to recharge this battery with the included 10W charging brick. In all, the battery should last you a full day at minimum, or maybe as long as two days for a light user.
The Moto G Pure kept it simple with a rear, dual-camera system, rather than add a sub-par ultrawide or macro camera onto the back.
For a $160 phone, the cameras on the Moto G Pure are better than expected, especially for photos that you'll likely only share online. Rather than squeeze another lackluster ultrawide or macro camera onto the back, Motorola made a smart decision to keep it simple with just a rear dual-camera system — a 13-megapixel main camera and a 2-megapixel depth sensor — plus a 5-megapixel front-facing camera (f/2.4) for selfies.
The 13-megapixel main camera with f/2.2 aperture was surprisingly capable at capturing details in low-light situations. At a recent indoor event with tricky lighting, it had no problems focusing with various light sources in dark rooms, and it managed to photograph small details in the art installations.
Moto G Pure camera test image: the main camera is able to capture fine details even in low light.
Like other smartphone cameras in this class, color accuracy seems to be an issue with the G Pure. Most photos look fine, but there are a few issues, like the pumpkins that look too red with stems that look too blue to be realistic. Likewise, the yellow door should look more orange, and the blue door should look more teal (with more green) than blue.
Moto G Pure camera test image: the two doors' colors are not true to life.
My biggest gripe with the G Pure's camera is its slider interface for zooming. Unlike other camera apps where you can tap to select the most optimal digital zoom presets, Moto's zoom slider doesn't automatically appear in the app. In addition, your hand will probably block your screen as you try to frame your shot and navigate the slider bar at the same time.
Sample photos from the Moto Pure G.
The Moto G Pure's zoom slider bar is not as easy to use as other phones' camera app UI.
At $160 — or less if you catch a sale or carrier deal, as this phone works on many 4G networks in America — it's hard to deny that the Moto G Pure will be good enough for most people looking for a basic budget phone for under $200. After all, it has an all-day battery, a versatile main camera, all in a well-designed, durable package.
It's a shame it doesn't have a faster processor, more RAM, or more onboard storage, which would make it a clear winner. I'd rather Motorola charge a slightly higher price like the $190 TCL 20SE, which offers 128GB of internal storage, has the Qualcomm Snapdragon 460 processor, and is supported by 4GB of RAM. At least you wouldn't have to constantly worry about backing up the files from your phone.
But these issues might not be deal-breakers for more casual users or those with a strict budget. Not many great phones are available at this price point, and the Moto G Pure is quite the catch.

ENVIRONMENTAL REQUIREMENTS HAVE ENTERED THE DIGITAL DESIGN MODEL
Integrating environmental requirements into digital project design work increases the likelihood of delivering climate-friendly solutions. COWI is doing the integration for the first time as part of a pilot project in Norway. The integration paves the way to an even more advanced BIM modelling, where sustainability plays a bigger part than ever.
How can we make sure that environmental aspects are considered at the very beginning of a design phase, before the actual construction begins?
This was one of the questions raised by the Rana Municipality in Norway, when entering the early planning stage for Gruben primary school.
They asked COWI for assistance and for the first time, environmental requirements for the consumption of materials have been incorporated into the Building Information Modelling (BIM) application.
"A sustainable building process has been on the agenda for a long time, and we have made a good start on integrating the environmental requirements into BIM. The contractors can already make use of the BIM model. Because COWI and the architects use different software, it was a challenge to import all requirements, but we are now arriving at a solution," says Hilde Ramfjord, COWI's BIM coordinator for the project.
STRONG BIM ORGANISATION
The results were achieved in close collaboration with the architects at SPINN arkitekter and the project design manager from Norconsult, as well as the project manager for the municipality of Rana.
Ramfjord says that they "cracked the code" thanks to an established BIM organisation, programming innovation and a forward-looking client.
"COWI has a strong BIM organisation in which the various technical disciplines are represented – now including environmental issues and software development. This provides for solid cross-project teamwork with scope for innovation. Areas like fire safety and acoustics have had well established BIM working methods for several years, so we used the experience from these areas to develop our own application, which offers us fresh opportunities within BIM," says Ramfjord.
"We also have a very environmentally aware and ambitious client, who is anxious to digitalise as much as possible and to test new solutions. This has also advanced our innovation work," she says.
The application calculates environmental requirements for the consumption of materials in the Building Information Modelling (BIM) project design tool. From the left: Vibeke Nossum, Bente Veiåker Engmo and Hilde Ramfjord, COWI (Photo: Hans-Einar Råberg)
WATCHDOGS FROM DAY ONE
Rana municipality has been focusing on the environment right from the early planning stage for Gruben primary school.
Bente Veiåker Engmo, COWI's environmental consultant on the project, explains that environmental consultants quickly became involved in the project design.
"That way, we were able to get on board and act almost like watchdogs with the rest of the design group. The environmental requirements have to be captured electronically, everyone has to take note of them, and we set clear goals. We are anxious to create a robust and flexible building with a long service life, good indoor climate and energy-efficient solutions – and with the minimum impact on the environment," says Engmo.
"Good planning at an early stage was important to achieving the environmental goals, and BIM is a key tool for making these goals visible. We gain a better overview, which in turn improves our chances of getting the project implemented within budget and with reduced emissions," she says.
MORE CONTROL OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL ASPECTS
Implementing environmental requirements in BIM also results in greater cross-project control, by making all the information about the building available in one place.
"This increases the likelihood of delivering a climate-friendly project. We use the BIM model to show that we have to use building materials with a low environmental impact throughout the life of the building, without any pollutants. This is important in designing school buildings," says Engmo.
She points out that the solution has great potential for further development.
"We can make use of the working method in other projects. As a result, we can offer clients even more advanced BIM modelling, where sustainability plays a bigger part than ever. Over time we hope to include elements from the environmental monitoring plan. BREEAM criteria could be another example," she says.
RAW GREEN BUILDING IN SOLID WOOD
COWI is also responsible for other environmental aspects of the project design work, such as energy-efficient solutions and waste management, and creating a fossil-free construction site.
The project owner for the municipality, Jon Einar Tuven, explains that they gave serious thought to the municipality's climate and environmental policy in the construction of Gruben primary school, which is to open its doors to 540 pupils in the autumn of 2021.
"We want this to be a raw green building in solid wood, both inside and out. Wood is good for the indoor climate, as it regulates humidity and CO2 better than many other materials," says Tuven.
"The materials should also be free from environmental toxins and harmful emissions, and we are prioritising products with the Nordic Swan label in our choice of paints, flooring and other components. We are also looking for recyclable elements," he says.
"As a public-sector developer, we want to set a good example and focus on both sustainability and digitalisation. So we are very pleased to get the environmental requirements into BIM. This transparency makes us more aware in the construction process. We also end up with good documentation for later, so it is easier to handle upgrades and maintenance when needed," he says.

At least 60 supporters of the communist New People's Army in Capiz surrendered to the military and took their oaths of allegiance to the government.
The Philippine Army said these include 37 members of the Militia ng Bayan and 23 mass base supporters, who formally surrendered Feb. 15 and 16.
Most of the surrenderees are residents of Barangays Carataya, San Antonio and Mahunod-Hunod in Cuartero, Capiz, according to 1Lt. Hazel Joy Durotan, 61st Infantry Battalion spokesperson.
According to the Army, the Militia ng Bayan is a force multiplier and sometimes acts as part-time NPA armed members.
It provides regular NPA troops with additional manpower, information, food and other logistics. The mass base supporters provide NPAs temporary shelter.
The Army's 61st Infantry Battalion Community Support Program teams facilitated the ceremony.
Witnessing the ceremony were Col. Orlando Edralin, 301st Infantry Brigade deputy commander, and local Philippine National Police officers.
Earlier, 301st IB commander Col. Alberto Desoyo said at least 70 in Panay have availed of the Enhanced Comprehensive Local Integration Program (E-CLIP) in 2018.
E-CLIP is a program that assists rebel returnees in starting anew after surrendering.


Ok, so you've never been to Piccadilly, Leicester Square, Convent Garden, Westminster, Soho or the West End of London. Fine. Then you absolutely owe it to yourself to experience these classic places during your first visit to the British capital.
However, if you've already crossed them off your "bucket list", head over to East London for a walk on the wild art side of town!
East London is made up of six boroughs and part of a seventh, Hackney, where I recently spent a couple of days exploring the neighborhoods of Shoreditch, Spatelfields and Brick Lane.
Though currently undergoing a seemingly out-of-control gentrification process, there's still time to experience the genuine, gritty vibe along the same streets and narrow alleys walked by William Shakespeare and stalked by the notorious Jack the Ripper. Up until a decade or so ago, this area was infamous for being rough and tough. Today, most of East London – at least during daytime – is a family friendly destination.
Start from the Aldgate Underground Station and stroll along Commercial Street towards the somewhat posh but visit-worthy Spitalfields Market with origins from 1682. At the statuesque Christ Church, turn down on either Fashion Strett or Fournier Street to reach the colorful, shabby-chic Brick Lane where a profusion of vintage shops, curry houses, cafés (including the famous Cereal Killer Café) and the Truman Brewery with its galleries, shops and eateries await you.
Brick Lane and adjacent side streets and alleys will keep you immersed for at least a few hours and eventually, when you reach Bethnal Green Road, you can hang a left and head through a few blocks of Shoreditch and wind up back on Commercial Street.
The street art scene around this part of the East London is nothing less than astonishing. You can literally spend days trying cover it al. Though some of the area's graffiti scene seems to have been commissioned, there's also an abundance of more anarchistic, religious, tribal and politically poised wall decorations and poetic prose to absorb.
Commercial Street has a plethora of restaurants to choose from. We tried the gorgeously funky Yuu Kitchen with its tattoo art inspired decor. Their menu is packed with a selection of treats from all over the world – including bite size concoctions from Asia, South America and Mexico. For its location, Yuu Kitchen is surprisingly affordable, too. We spent less than £65 for five different really tasty dishes, two rounds of a local draught beer and a single shot of smooth Japanese whisky (Nikka). Service was relaxed yet attentive and I highly recommend sitting by the open kitchen to get the fullest experience here.
On the corner of Gun Street and Brushfield Street is the ultimate cozy pitstop; Verde & Co, a tiny café with a great selection of coffee, chocolate, tea and luscious confectionery.
A multi-concept store with fashion and homeware that reflects the creative, vibrant area in which they are based.
They specialise in gorgeous books on contemporary visual arts and culture, covering subjects like fashion, graphic design, architecture, photography, fine art and visual & critical theory.
It' the biggest and best with over 20,000 hand-selected pieces and fresh deliveries each and every week. Blitz is the ultimate shopping experience store when it comes to vintage.
Store with carefully selected new and vintage designer homeware, stationery and clothing items.
Triangle was developed by three friends that have the same belief in good design. They select products via a basic framework: is it simple, useful or beautiful. These characteristics are the foundation of their shop.
You will find work by local artists, guides to East End coffee shops, hidden walks and street art, London photography book and lots more.
Everything here seems thoughtfully curated and carefully hand-picked. The suites are almost double the size of the typical boutique hotel room and they range from 30 sqm to 39 sqm, all with fully equipped kitchen, big windows, washer, dryer, Locke Dream bed, super fast free wifi and bedside USB-outlets.
We particularly loved the blond wooden floors (instead of the usual, wall-to-wall shaggy carpet) and the expansive views from the floor-to-ceiling windows.
210 rooms, in Shoebox, Cosy and Roomy sizes, all feature parquet floors, large mirrors, industrial details, and contemporary monochrome bathrooms.
Whether you're up for breakfast, a little later for brunch, or fancy a feast at any time of day, The Hoxton got it covered. Open seven days a week, they rise bright and early at 7am and serve food and drinks until late.
When you stay at the Ace you it feels more of staying in a friend's Shoreditch apartment than in a normal hotel room. The lobby is a popular hang-out, — a place to work, relax or wheel and deal 24 hours a day.
Every room and suite has been individually designed. Many retain grand Edwardian period features, others have an up-in-the-eaves-loft-style chic. All rooms are exceptionally spacious, feeling more like a pied a terre in the city than a traditional hotel room.
The hotel is a designer conversion of a former office building, with 111 bedrooms arranged over lower ground, ground and three upper floors. All of the pillows and mattresses are handmade from natural materials and each room also houses a sleek 40in television with free access to Sky channels.
A smart budget hotel with 181 rooms feature flat-screen TVs, safes, and hairdryers. Nice touches to enhance your stay include free toiletries and premium bedding.

Gilead participates in the political process by contributing prudently to state and local candidates and political organizations when such contributions are permitted by state and local law. Generally, contributions are made to officeholders and candidates based on several criteria, including: policy positions that reflect the interests of Gilead, its employees or the communities it serves; representation of geographic area where Gilead's employees and facilities are located; ability to be elected; and the need for financial assistance. Gilead's priorities for making political expenditures with corporate funds include furthering public health policy and scientific and health innovation.
Requests for corporate political contributions are made by or to Gilead's Government Affairs group, led by Michael Boyd, Senior Vice President, Government Affairs and Policy. Mr. Boyd and other members of the senior management team approve the corporate political contributions. Please note that political contributions are made without regard to private political preferences of the company officers and executives.
In the interest of transparency for our stockholders and other stakeholders, we are making available lists of our political contributions and contributions to trade associations. These lists will be updated and posted to this website semi-annually. The information will also be provided to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of our Board.
Direct corporate contributions to federal candidates and national political party committees are prohibited by law. As a result, we do not make such contributions with corporate funds. Contributions to federal candidates and committees are made by the Gilead Sciences Inc. Healthcare Policy PAC, a federally-registered political committee that accepts contributions from eligible Gilead employees on a voluntary basis.
In 2010, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the use of corporate funds to make independent expenditures on behalf of candidates is permissible. We have not made and do not plan to make any independent expenditures on behalf of federal, state, or local candidates in the future. If our position on making independent expenditures changes, that declaration would be made on this website and such activities (including recipient names and amounts given) would be disclosed here.
In certain states, corporations are permitted to contribute on the state and local level. We have made contributions on the state and local level where permissible. Click on the link below to view reports of Gilead's corporate contributions to state and local political candidates, political parties, political committees, ballot initiatives, and other political organizations established under Section 527 of the Internal Revenue Code.
January – June 2022 Corporate Political Contributions
Click on the link below to view a list of trade organizations to which Gilead pays more than $25,000 in membership dues or other payments, and to the extent available to us, the portion of those payments that were used for activities that are not deductible under Chapter 162(e) of the Internal Revenue Code.
January – June 2022 Non-Deductible Portion of Payments to Trade Associations
Examples of trade associations of which Gilead is a member include; Biotechnology Industry Organization and California Life Sciences Association. Gilead's Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviews the company's political expenditure policies and confirms that all political expenditures are consistent with the company's policies on a quarterly basis. The Nominating and Governance Committee also reviews all payments to trade associations. In addition, outside counsel will provide a periodic review of Gilead's political activity.
Political Contributions Archive
Historical records of our political contributions are available.
Engagement with Government Officials
Gilead lobbies at the federal and state levels to educate government officials on the issues that matter to our company and the patients we serve.
At the federal level, Gilead is a lobbying registrant pursuant to the Lobbying Disclosure Act. As a lobbying registrant, Gilead files quarterly reports with the U.S. Congress that include a good faith estimate of Gilead's total lobbying expenditures during the quarter and that list the issues and agencies it lobbied during the period. Gilead's quarterly lobbying reports are publicly available here. In 2021, Gilead's reported good faith estimate of expenses for federal lobbying activities was $8,180,000. This figure includes compensation and benefits paid to employees engaged in lobbying activities, payments to outside lobbying firms, lobbying-related expenses, and the portion of trade association dues paid by Gilead that are attributable to lobbying.
As reflected in Gilead's lobbying reports, Gilead has educated policymakers regarding the following issues, among others: international trade and protection of intellectual property, drug pricing proposals, expanding access to HIV treatment and prevention therapies, hepatitis C screening and linkage to care programs, coverage and reimbursement policies, clinical trial diversity, COVID-19 treatments, Medicaid and Medicare coverage, oncology products, value-based purchasing arrangements, public health appropriations, and corporate tax rates and related laws.
At the state level, Gilead complies with state lobbying registration and reporting requirements. A chart with links to public lobbying reports filed by Gilead at the state level, in the states where Gilead is registered as a lobbying principal or where Gilead employees were registered lobbyists as of Jan. 1, 2021 is available here.
Gilead also engages in lobbying activities in countries outside the United States. Information about Gilead's lobbying activities outside the United States is available in this chart.

\usepackage{eqexpl}
\eqexplSetIntro{where} % set parenthesis in the left of the first item
\eqexplSetDelim{:} % set delimiter to ":"

and then in document
\begin{eqexpl}
  \item{fTTsc}traveling time (office to site and back to office).
  \item{fTIsc}time to get safety instructions
    (this is specially true in industrial environment)
  \item{fSNETtsc}setting up survey network.
\end{eqexpl}

The parenthesis could be set only in the left of the item, not above, in this case you could leave it default (none) and add the "where" before environment manually.

Reflecting on Women in Health Leadership – Rufina Latu
When women and girls are able to stay in school longer, access health services and empowered to plan for responsible motherhood, they can improve their social and economic opportunities, and ultimately transform their futures.
Although 70% of the health workforce is made up of women, this is often not reflected in leadership roles. It is important that more women join the ranks of health leadership where decisions are made about the health of women and girls
On the occasion of International Women's Day on 8th March we reflect on the universal theme of "press for progress" through actions to advocate for gender equality and women's empowerment. This annual event is a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women. The day also marks a call to action for accelerating gender equality and acts as a catalyst for facilitating change for progress.
For health professionals, the theme is focused around women in health leadership. As health advocates, we try to make this theme meaningful and valuable so that it inspires us in our everyday work. For many, the theme maybe just one of those catch-phrases for global attention to support a global health agenda. On a positive side, we can usefully apply the theme for our own purpose and advantage. If organisations, groups or individuals analyse the theme and unfold its meaning, we can gain better understanding of what it means for different settings, and how we may be able to advocate for women leaders in the health sector.
In some parts of the Pacific region, women are indeed already taking up positions of health leadership in many fronts and at all levels. Statistics indicate that at least 70% of the health workforce comprises women at various levels of professional responsibilities. A fairly large proportion of them are assigned to mid-level management, while the larger proportion are frontliners for service delivery working as clinical doctors, nurses, midwives and paramedics at all levels of health care.
Pacific women have reached leadership roles as health ministers, executive directors, clinical managers, consultants, heads of sections, health facility managers, supervisors and so forth. While we are making progress in senior leadership, it is important that we recognise that any health professional is a leader in his/her area of work, regardless of hierarchy. But often times, the role of leadership is not strongly embedded in job descriptions and remains a weak component of the recruitment and orientation process. As such, our current workforce systems often fall short in bringing about the essence of leadership functions, appropriate and relevant for different positions.
How do we address this shortfall? Often times the leadership roles are not well articulated in job descriptions; a missed opportunity. Therefore, we need to recognise its importance, provide an enabling environment to allow women to exercise leadership roles, and empower them so they can develop, expand their horizons and ultimately maximise their contribution to health outcomes.
Advocating for women in health leadership can impact on the way we work and the approaches we take for bringing about maximum health outcomes. The theme portrays the critical role of women as catalysts for change in health sector development.
"Women in health leadership" reminds us that as health professionals, we can influence health outcomes by supporting, advocating and investing in women to become stronger leaders in the health sector. There is ample evidence that investing in women is the most effective way to lift communities, organisations, and even countries to better socio-economic gains. Women's participation makes strategic directions for health care stronger, societies more resilient and economies more vigorous. Women's empowerment and leadership is critical to ensuring success across all 17 Sustainable Development Goals.

Programs are offered free through AISD schools and partner organizations and grant more than 300 students and teachers scholarships to the annual Austin Film Festival & Conference.


Please allow me a moment to give props to the riotous fashionistas. Good fashion is a privilege, and perhaps a shallow pursuit being that global capitalism is strangling millions to death. But, one of this blogs' aims is to promote the riot aesthetic. So today we celebrate those who, despite their desperate situations, took a moment to look good--damn good.


The winter of 1894-95 was severe for the British Isles with a CET of 1.2°C. The severe winter led to mass unemployment and severe disruptions to shipping on the River Thames.
A very cold easterly flowed across the UK and most of Europe, and there were severe frosts with minima of -13°C at Loughborough and -15°C being recorded at Chester. Heavy snow showers came with the easterly with Yorkshire and Lincolnshire getting the brunt of the showers. South Shields was severely affected by 15 hours of continuous snowfall, forcing the closure of the shipyard. Small polar lows affected the west with snowfalls, and Douglas on the Isle of Man recorded 20cm of snow. As the high over Scandinavia moved over the UK, it brought with it a phenomenally cold spell with exceptionally low minima. Temperatures of -20°C or less were regularly recorded, -27.2C was recorded at Braemar on the 11th, -24C at Buxton also on the 11th, and -22.2°C at Rutland. -12.7°C was the mean average temperature for Wakefield in Yorkshire between the 5th and the 14th. Canals, rivers, lakes and ponds froze in the severe cold, the Manchester Ship Canal was iced over, there were ice floes in the Thames and the Thames estuary itself was impassable because of ice. Many people died of hypothermia and of respiratory conditions. By the end of February, the weekly death rate from pneumonia and related illnesses was 950 per week - higher than the average for the period. There was mass unemployment as industries were closed by the conditions and coal supplies dwindled as transporting coal by canal or rail became impossible. As the high began to slip westwards, milder Atlantic air slowly encroached and temperatures crept above freezing for the first time in a couple of weeks, and London had its first frost free night on the 21st for three weeks. Maxima temperature were finally returning to close to normal by the end of the month.

Чудо́висько озе́ра Лох-Несс, також відоме як Не́ссі (лат. Nessitera rhombopteryx), — нерозпізнана таємнича тварина чи група тварин (криптид), чию появу нібито зафіксовано на шотландському озері Лох-Несс. Озеро є найбільшою за кількістю води прісноводною водоймою Великої Британії. Більшість науковців вважають зібрані на сьогодні докази непереконливими. Головна теорія вбачає у чудовиську вид плезіозавра.

Озеро

Лох-Несс — найбільша за об'ємом води прісноводна водойма Великої Британії. Воно характерне тим, що дуже довге та вузьке — Лох-Несс завдовжки близько 38 км, а завширшки — у середньому 1,6 км. Разом з озером Лох-Ойх та додатково проритими каналами утворює так званий Каледонський канал, який простягається на понад 100 км і з'єднує східне узбережжя Шотландії із західним. Усі ці водойми лежать у западині Ґлен Мор — низині у межах тектонічного рову (грабена) між Грампіанськими горами і Північно-Західним нагір'ям Шотландії.

Історія свідчень
Місцеві жителі та приїжджі згадували про великих тварин, яких начебто бачили на озері, але міжнародну славу й увагу озеро прикуло до себе після 1933 року. 2 травня 1933 р. у місцевій газеті «Inverness Courier» Александер Кемпбел написав про «…щось подібне до кита», яке так само викидає вгору цілі фонтани води, що булькотіла і пінилася. Слово «чудовисько» вперше з'явилося на шпальтах місцевого видання «The Northern Chronicle» у номері від 8 травня 1933 року.

11 травня того ж року чудовисько бачили Александер Шов і його син, які стояли на своєму газоні на віддалі близько 50 метрів від озера. Вони стверджували, що бачили на поверхні води хвильки і слід, який зазвичай залишає об'єкт, що пливе, а згодом і хребет якоїсь тварини. Про 27 травня згадує Нора Сімпсон, яка бачила чудовисько за 40 метрів від берега. За її словами воно мало приблизно 10 метрів завдовжки і два горби на спині.

22 липня 1933 року чудовисько вперше помічено на суші. Того дня Джордж Спайсер їхав разом з дружиною від Інвернесс до Фоєрс. Подружжя твердить, що на пагорбі Вайтфілд на дорозі враз з'явилося дивне створіння — «потворна, темнозабарвлена тварина з жахливими обрисами, яка нагадувала слимака» — що переповзло дорогу десь за 60 метрів від машини. Спайсери описували чудовисько, як таке, що мало довгу хвилясту шию і випуклий масивний корпус. Пані Спайсер оці́нювала його довжину десь у 7,5 метра. Свідчення було опубліковане 4 серпня 1933 на сторінках «Inverness Courier».

З початку серпня 1933 дійшла ще одна згадка про зустріч із чудовиськом на суходолі. Місіс Макленнен, яка поверталася із служби Божої, начебто наткнулася на тварину, яка лежала на скелі, що підносилася приблизно на 2 метри над водою і знаходилася дещо нижче від шосе. Жінка начебто крикнула «О, мамо!», а створіння налякалося і зіскочило до води. Жінка описала його як щось подібне до слона, із сірою шкірою.

У жовтні та листопаді того ж року теж зафіксовано чимало звернень щодо появи чудовиська — загалом близько 50 подібних випадків протягом року (враховуючи одну кіноплівку). Історії охоче друкували видання усієї Великої Британії, а наприкінці року новини почали з'являтися у французьких газетах.

Світлини і кінофільми
З 12 листопада 1933 року походить перша фотографія Нессі. Цього дня Г'ю Ґрей, житель Фоєрс, начебто бачив щось з великим тулубом і довгою прямою шиєю. Фото проявили тільки через 3 тижні і воно з'явилося у шотландському щоденнику «Daily Mail».

Відомі різні припущення відносно світлин із зображенням Нессі. Одні стверджують, що це звичайний стовбур дерева або залишки розбитого корабля. Інші, що це велика риба, наприклад акула або північний пляшконосий кит.

For the first of the two 'May' posts, here's a re-recording and a remix. Both date back to the earliest days of 52fs, when I was mostly singing unaccompanied and in a cardboard box (or that's how it often sounded).
The London Waterman is that rarity, a bona fide urban folk song. It can be traced back to a stage ballad – as a lot of folk songs can – but the smoothings, erasures and reworkings of the folk process had turned it into something quite different by the time it was collected. I learned it from Peter Bellamy's rendition and tried not to sound too much as if I was trying not to sound like him. I thought (and still think) that it goes well with the Morris tune "Constant Billy", so I stuck that on the end. The end result was a bit boxy and quiet, so I've remixed it for this release.
Lemany, for me, is a song that inspires nothing but awe. (I think it's that extraordinary melody.) When I originally recorded it for 52fs I took fright at the slow, stately pace which it seemed to be asking for, and morphed it into 3/4 to make it move along a bit more. I regretted that decision almost immediately; I've been looking forward to putting it right. This re-recording is a first take, with one small pause edited out. I was planning to sing the song through twice or three times and pick the best version, but when I finished this I realised there was only one syllable in there that I'd want to improve – so here it is. I don't know how good it is in absolute terms, but it's as good as I can get it.
Both The London Waterman and Lemany are from 52 Folk Songs – Violet; these versions are free to download.

Frances (Chloë Grace Moretz), a sweet, naïve young woman trying to make it on her own in New York City, doesn't think twice about returning the handbag she finds on the subway to its rightful owner. That owner is Greta (Isabelle Huppert), an eccentric French piano teacher with a love for classical music and an aching loneliness. Having recently lost her mother, Frances quickly grows closer to widowed Greta. The two become fast friends - but Greta's maternal charms begin to dissolve and grow increasingly disturbing as Frances discovers that nothing in Greta's life is what it seems in this suspense thriller directed by Academy Award® winner, Neil Jordan.

Greta: Enemies and Friends
Critics Consensus: A bonkers B movie occasionally elevated by its A-list talent, Greta dives headlong into camp and struggles to stay afloat.
SpookyAstronauts
Emma Wolfe
This story isn't very compelling and it's kind of all over the place to be honest.
Arts Fuse
Isaac Feldberg
A B-movie par excellence, Greta's the kind of unhinged and yet fiendishly well-calibrated genre fare that rarely gets afforded the attentions of a director as accomplished as Jordan.
Cinema Sentries
Matthew St. Clair
All in all, Greta proves to be a typical schlocky stalker thriller. However, Isabelle Huppert still knocks it out of the park and is easily the main reason to buy a ticket.
Kelechi Ehenulo
Somewhere in its ninety-eight minute-runtime there's an outstanding film sparked by good intentions, but it's buried underneath some diabolical plotting.
The New Daily (Australia)
Stephen A. Russell
Greta, starring Isabelle Huppert and Chloë Grace Moretz, is a ridiculously daft thriller. It's also ridiculously good fun, something that's been largely absent from the genre for too long.
VultureHound
The most enjoyable slice of delirious, shrieking melodrama I have seen in a while.
Movies For The Rest Of Us
Writer/director Neil Jordan plays his audience like a fiddle with this old-fashioned, twisty thriller with plenty of jumps, scares, and a supremely satisfying wrap-up.
Film Monthly
Matt Cipolla
Greta is never a truly 'thrilling' movie, but that isn't the goal. It's a fun one that's in on the joke.
Lucy Goes to Hollywood
Lucy Buglass
Whilst it isn't the strongest thriller I've seen, it is entertaining throughout and doesn't need to rely on excessive violence in order to make its point.
Third Coast Review
Steven Prokopy
Everyone involved is capable of better, more sophisticated work. Just because the nature of the film is B-movie doesn't mean we should expect less from it in terms of its quality or entertainment value.
Dark, violent stalker thriller has strong performances.
Parents need to know that Greta is a Neil Jordan-directed thriller about a young woman named Frances (Chloe Grace Moretz) who befriends the title character (Isabelle Huppert) -- who turns out to be a psychopathic stalker. Violence is the biggest concern and can be quite graphic: There's a severed finger, bashing with blunt objects, injections/drugged characters, guns/shooting, dead people (and a dead dog), a nightmare sequence, and jump scares. A young woman is shown naked in the bathtub, but nothing sensitive is seen. Somewhat infrequent language includes uses of "s--t," "bitch," "ass," "hell," and "goddamn." Characters drink socially: wine with dinner and cocktails in a nightclub. The material is pretty routine, but the fine direction and performances make it worth a look for mature viewers.
