Virtual Reality (VR) can have a tremendous impact upon people's lives, however, it should be noted that VR is not for everyone and participation should be voluntary.
The immersive impact of VR can be quite dramatic, which means that there are ethical considerations to take into account when using the technology.
Should I allow people who are unable to express consent to experience VR?
This is a very difficult question and one that opens up many ethical debates about altering an individual's reality without their consent. If the participant is not able to consent, due to cognitive or communication difficulties, the simplest way to determine whether they should be allowed to participate is by seeking permission from a parent or guardian. Getting input from clinicians and therapists would also be beneficial.
Before using the VR headset, it would also be worthwhile to see how a participant responds to the content when it is shown on a monitor. If there is a clear like or dislike outside of VR, the chances are that these feelings will be magnified once the VR headset is on.
Is VR suitable for children?
It is widely suggested that VR is not to be used by children under the age of 13. This is consistent with all mainstream headsets: Oculus, HTC Vive, Google Daydream and Gear-VR. We recommend that manufacturer guidance is adhered to in all cases.
I hear VR can make people sick?
Some VR experiences have been known to cause a sensation of sickness. This is due to the way the motion is handled and the way the device renders the video. The VR experiences made by Sensory Guru have been constructed in a way so that motion sickness is not a concern. However, it is important to proceed with caution. If you, or someone you work with feels sick, remove the headset immediately.
What happens if I have a visual impairment or poor visual acuity?
If the user has a significant visual impairment then it is likely that they will not benefit from the visual aspects of VR, although they may still benefit from the binaural 3D audio that the application offers. Sensory VR also has a VI mode that provides a UV like environment. The visual intensity is also adjustable, so it is possible to configure the experience to the needs of the user.
Can I use VR if I wear glasses?
Generally, the answer is yes, but it is worth checking the dimensions below with those of your glasses. Extremely large frames will not fit.
Those who have ever, or currently live with symptoms of epilepsy such as severe dizziness, blackouts, seizures or loss of awareness, should consult a doctor before using VR. The content may include flashing images and repetitive sequences which, for a small portion of people with photosensitive epilepsy, could cause seizures.
Do you have to wear a headset?
To be fully immersed in the VR experience, participants need to wear a headset. However, participants can get a feel for the content before they wear the headset by watching the VR experience on a screen. This can help to take away some of the anxiety some people may have about being immersed in the virtual world.

At La Cata, we are constantly adding to our list of tequilas and Mexican spirits.
We aim not to have an exhaustive selection of the thousands of brands in the world (many of which are the same liquid in different bottles), but rather thoughtfully curate a selection that represents the breadth and diversity of the Mexican spirit categories. We focus on producers, production techniques and terroir more than brands, per se. Our selection is not a reflection of our personal preferences, but rather a belief that every tequila can be the right one that lights up a guest's eyes and increases their tequila passion and knowledge.
Blanco: Also called "silver" or "plata", blanco tequila is bottled soon after distillation, and is the purest and most traditional expression of the tequila-making craft. Traditionally and predominantly un-aged, blanco tequila can be in contact with oak for up to 60 days.
Reposado: Meaning "rested", reposado tequila is aged a minimum of two months in an oak vessel of any size, which are often large tanks. There is no maximum aging time. At their best, reposados balance the boldness of a blanco with the smooth vanilla and caramel notes of toasted oak.
Añejo: "Year-old" tequilas take their name from the Spanish word for year ("año"), and all añejos must spend at least that long in oak barrels no larger than 600 liters. There is no maximum aging time. Often the barrels will have been used previously for whiskey, and the extra time in the barrel makes a big impact. The result is typically an oaky tequila with a long, complex finish. Añejos are often favorites of Scotch or other whiskey drinkers for this reason.
Extra-añejo: "Extra aged" tequilas spend a minimum of three years in oak barrels no larger than 600 liters. Everything that applies to añejos applies even more so to extra-añejos. Oak notes tend to dominate, and due to the "angels' share" lost to the barrels, these tequilas can be very expensive.

'NudeHerbs' Is The All Natural Beverage Proven To Purify Your Body
The all new, all naturally brewed beverage 'NudeHerbs' is the latest tonic drink that has the nation talking. With a total of three different tonics available, including, Cleanse, Focus and Relax, each contains an effective concentration of herbs and flowers, a naturally fruity flavour, with no added sugar, no artificial additives, no herbal extracts and the ancient recipe is entirely plant based. NudeHerbs is the very first Australian company producing beverages from real herbs and flowers, that can help to purify the body and lead to health and wellness.
All About NudeHerbs:
NudeHerbs is brewed right here in Australia, and the process is done in a unique way to ensure the beverage is indeed brewed, rather than extracted. Within the industry, herbal extracts are produced by soaking herbs in either ethanol or glycerine. This process brings compounds out of the herbal tissue and leaves others behind. This means, herbal extracts don't contain important compounds found within real herbs and can lead to health issues… However, herbal brew contains the widest range of nutrients, delivering health benefits similar to the real herbs. Brewing allows for the beverage flavour to also be significantly better than herbal extracts, imagine freshly brewing tea leaves versus making a cup of tea using instant tea powder.
Despite the proven negative health impacts of artificial ingredients, they are still found
in many of the food and drinks consumed across the population. Products produced
without artificial ingredients reduce the chemical load on yourself and the environment. Real fruit juice, is used as a natural sweetener and is a safe alternative to sugar. Always look for products that use preservatives like lime juice and vitamin C (a natural antioxidant).
NudeHerbs Health Benefits:
All Natural Ingredients: Instead of using readily and cheaply available herbal extracts, the company follows the natural way of using herbs and flowers, which is brewing them using a four-step ancient technique that was used by ancestors to create beverages with premium health benefits and a high flavour profile.
Sustainable: The company works alongside passionate suppliers that aim to reduce the negative impact that farming and harvesting have upon the environment. NudeHerbs does not use ingredients harvested from the wild, but instead uses sustainable farming methods. The recycled
beverage glass and metal lids reduce the amount of rubbish that ends up in landfills and our oceans.
Vegan: The company is proud to only use cruelty-free, plant-based and vegan products that reject the use, exploitation of, and cruelty to animals.
Ingredient Spotlight 'Focus-Enhancing Herbs':
Factors like stress, lack of sleep and diet effect over 600 million people worldwide. So you may be asking yourself what are some ways to regain focus and beat a cognitive slump? A tonic just like 'NudeHerbs Focus' contains mental concentration-enhancing herbs, brewed in the traditional way ensuring the maximum dosage of herbs comes with no unpleasant bitter herbal notes.
As part of a balanced diet rich in natural, high-quality foods, 'NudeHerbs Focus' can also help to give you that extra edge you're looking for when you're stuck in the midst of an afternoon slump. Whether you're chasing deadlines or just needing a healthy pick-me-up to get you through the day, 'Focus' is a delicious way to help keep brain fog at bay. The naturally sweetened pineapple flavoured drink contains a combination of six herbs chosen for their ability to facilitate focus and mental clarity:
Ginkgo biloba: is a herbal remedy popular worldwide for its cognitive-boosting properties. Ginkgo biloba has high levels of flavonoids and terpenoids, compounds which are known for being powerful antioxidants.
Siberian ginseng: works to increase alertness and improve the brain's memory function. Siberian ginseng is a common herbal remedy to for ADHD. In one 2011 study researchers reported ginseng improved anxiety, personality, and social functioning in children with ADHD. It is widely used as an "adaptogen" which is a substance that is supposed to help the body better cope with either mental or physical stress.
Turmeric: prized for its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-ageing qualities, turmeric gives Focus its distinct orange colour.
Rosemary: rosemary oil has been shown to improve cognitive performance and memory.
Green tea: contains caffeine and L-theanine the combination of which made respondents in one study feel more alert, less tired and reduced headaches.
Sage: studies show sage improves memory, alertness and calmness in adults young and old.

Q: Creating a buffer in ArcMap....? I need to create a buffer around a polygon.
I know how to do this, but my problem is I need the buffer to be 250 feet to the south, east, and west, but 500 feet to the north.
Is there any way to specify the distance of a buffer in a certain direction from a feature?

A: There is a great Q&A about it at Creating buffer only in specific direction using ArcGIS for Desktop?
If you only have one polygon, you could do it manually by creating two sets of buffers.  one for 500 and one for 250.  You can extend the left and right sides of the 250 buffer polygon to the top/north part of the 500 polygon in an edit session.   This would be the quickest way if it's only the one polygon of course.

Having dirty drain pipes would lead to clogging which is the sole purpose of having drain pipes in the first place! Timely flushing and cleaning water treatment would prevent this. In this case, the facility was having issues because of the age of the building and that it was not properly maintained. We were able to snap a picture of the samples they took after pipes were cut out.

A woman who claimed to be a naturopathic doctor at her Hoover clinic was sentenced to prison Tuesday after she admitted to defrauding her patients, some of whom had cancer.
Isabel Kesari Gervais, 60, was sentenced Tuesday by U.S. District Judge Madeline Haikala to six years and three months in prison, followed by five years of supervised release. She was ordered to pay $45,031.17 in restitution.
Gervais pleaded guilty in July 2017 to one count of wire fraud affecting a financial institution, one count of aggravated identity theft, and one count of making false statements.
The judge called Gervais' actions "serious" and "dangerous," and said she considered sentencing Gervais to a sentence greater than the court's guidelines suggest. "I'm sentencing [Gervais] as high as I possibly can," Haikala said. If the judge would have imposed a lengthier sentence, she said an appeal could prolong the case.
Gervais used the alias Dr. Rose Starr at the Euro Med Clinic-- which she started in Hoover in 2015-- where she lied about her credentials, her experience, and her license to practice medicine, the plea agreement shows.
Gervais said she had years of experience and was licensed to practice medicine across the world, with several different degrees in forms of natural medicine. Gervais promised patients, including some who suffered from cancer, that she could provide various medical services including biochemical DNA tests from Germany that she did not have the technology to do, prosecutors said in court.
Gervais would run tests and prescribe substances, billing patients thousands for her services, the plea agreement states.
Gervais spoke before her sentence was announced. "I would like to apologize sincerely," she said. "I have been negligent, I have been wrong. I can only apologize sincerely and deeply for what I've done."
Several victims were present at Gervais' sentencing, but none gave a statement. Many victims submitted written statements to the judge prior to today's hearing.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Erica Barnes said during the hearing that Gervais' crime was "deeply personal," and gave false hope to patients suffering from cancer or other serious illnesses. "It's what she lied about... she lied to very sick people," Barnes said.
At least one of the victims has since died, and another was too ill to be present in court. Gervais took valuable time from people who may have found relief in treatments from real physicians, Barnes said said.
A recording of Gervais on Talk 99.5 radio was played in court. Gervais was invited on a radio show to talk about her practice, and to take questions from callers. She said on the show that she was excited about her move to Birmingham, and talked about her various medical degrees and certifications. She claimed to offer concentrated metabolic testing and German biochemical DNA testing, which would identify the affected organ or gland and allow Gervais to formulate a healthcare plan for her patients.
Over the last 15 years, Gervais operated several different clinics in Alabama, Georgia, Arkansas, and Kansas using both her name and different aliases. The clinics included Sagewood Medical Clinic in Montgomery, the Chiron Clinic in Marietta, Ga., and DRI Enterprises in Atlanta.
Because of ongoing fraud, Gervais was investigated by the Alabama and Arkansas medical boards and was eventually prosecuted by Arkansas state authorities. She faced several civil claims and actions, court records show. After those claims were filed, Gervais abandoned her rental properties, changed her locations and clinic names, and created aliases.
In addition to the fraud, Gervais charged one of her Hoover patient's credit card without consent. She also misappropriated the identity of another patient and used it to set up a post office box, records state.
Gervais forged a judge's signature on a court document, created several fake passport applications, made a fake birth certificate, and created fake diplomas, prosecutors said during the sentencing.
The U.S. Postal Inspection Service investigated the case, and Assistant U.S. Attorney Erica Barnes prosecuted. Gervais was represented by Bill Myers.

That's Angelina Jolie's adorable 5-year-old daughter, Vivienne Jolie-Pitt, co-starring with Mom in "Maleficent," Disney's dark new spin on the Sleeping Beauty fairy tale out this summer.
Jolie plays the title role of the despicable Mistress of All Evil who curses wee Princess Aurora with a looooooooooooooong nap.
One reason Vivienne landed the role of toddler Aurora (Elle Fanning plays her as a teen) was because they needed a tyke who "wasn't afraid of my horns and my eyes and my claws," Angelina said.

Blooming Prairie woman sought in second murder investigation
Published 9:17 pm Friday, April 13, 2018
By Deb Nicklay, Austin Daily Herald
A Blooming Prairie woman wanted for the murder of her husband is now being sought in the shooting death of a Bradenton, Florida, woman.
The U.S. Marshal Service shifted its search for Lois Riess, 56, to Florida this week following a murder that happened on Monday in a condominium at Marina Village at Snug Harbor in Fort Myers Beach.
Lois Riess
On Friday, investigators reported Riess chose her victim based on their similar appearances and is now using the dead woman's identity to avoid arrest.
Minnesota investigators believe Riess could be using the name Pamela Sellers Hutchinson.
Authorities allege that after killing her, Riess stole Hutchinson's cash, credit cards, ID and car and is believed to be using her identity.
According to Dodge County Sheriff Scott Rose, investigators in Florida report Hutchinson was killed with the same firearm used to murder David Riess. They are not aware of any connection between the two women.
Dodge County deputies believe Riess is driving Hutchinson's white 2005 Acura TL with Florida license plate Y37TAA. They also said Riess is believed to be armed and dangerous. Hutchinson's car has been observed in Louisiana and most recently in Corpus Christi, Texas, since Hutchinson's death.
Riess' white Escalade, driven from the Minnesota murder scene, was found abandoned in a Florida park earlier this week, according to Rose.
Rose re-emphasized during a press conference on Friday that no one should approach Riess if they see her, and urged them to call 9-1-1; if they have information about Riess relevant to the case, they should contact the tip line number established by the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension, seen at the end of this article.

Dodge County authorities have been searching for Riess since March 23 after her husband, David Riess, 54, was shot and killed at their rural Blooming Prairie home.
David Riess's business partner contacted the Dodge County Sheriff's Department on a welfare check, indicating that neither he or their employees had seen him for over two weeks. Authorities, knowing Lois Riess often frequented casinos, searched for the woman at Diamond Jo Casino in Northwood, but found she left prior to their arrival.
Minnesota's Dodge County Sheriff's Office issued a warrant for Riess's arrest for second-degree murder of her husband on Thursday. The office earlier filed theft charges against Riess, who is accused of pilfering her husband's bank accounts and signing his signature on checks in order to obtain $11,000 in cash.
Dodge County authorities learned on April 2 that Lois Riess was in southern Florida.
The Dodge County Sheriff's Office leads the Minnesota investigation with help from the state's Bureau of Criminal Apprehension. Since that time, the U.S. Marshals from the District of Minnesota joined the search, as have agents with the Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation.
A tip line has been established; anyone with information about Riess's whereabouts should contact the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension at 1-877-996-6222. Callers can remain anonymous.

Creating a client's home for the third time came with its challenges. Their previous home in Templestowe offered expansive outdoor living for the young family to mature, and their next chapter would situate them in Kew offering proximity to the city and an emerging cross-pollination of Victorian heritage and contemporary design.
The client's brief for the project was to provide the amenity of their existing home uncompromised by the limited block size. Having complete confidence in our creative ability, they allowed us to explore an external form that would complement the existing characteristics of the site whilst offering a modern architectural solution.
Working within the confinements of the limited block size and with existing conditions to preserve, a challenge presented itself which only carefully and considered design could solve. The existing homes iconic textured render influenced the use of materially to provide a seamless transition from old to new. Glazing is framed by raw materials and protected by external blinds to provide privacy from the street below and offer shading from the blocks west orientation. The homes external composition was intricately detailed to offer simplicity in form and interest through texture and craftsmanship. The façade is wrapped in a new James Hardie cladding that offers a raw textuality to the homes timeless form. Collaborating with our heritage architects, we emphasised a delineation between period and current architecture by using the entry space as a junction of old and new.
A shear wall separates the two styles yet reflects the unique characteristics of the heritage home by incorporating the iconic textured render that defines the existing architecture.
The house offers a 4-car basement including a wine cellar, large outdoor living area with a pool and spa overlooked by a beautiful open-style space with 150 sqm of kitchen, living, dinning and master suite with ensuite, walk in robe and parents retreat within the existing home. The first floor – accessible by a lift – consists of 3 bedrooms, each with connecting ensuites and another living space. All of this was achieved without compromising the overall layout and design intent.
Our collaboration with Mim Design enabled the interior space to praise the unique architectural style, flowing harmoniously from the outside in. Inspiration was drawn directly from the raw materials and sophisticated shapes and forms of the building to create an internal space that reflected it emotively. Consideration was given to every fine detail including a custom steel staircase with floating timber treads and a system of external blinds with recessed pelmets, providing privacy, shade and flexibility to each room of the home.

The Spanish Government wishes to express its full support for the people and authorities of Sudan with regard to the difficult challenge they are facing in order to successfully complete the political transition that has begun, being them the only responsible thereof. To create of a civil government capable of responding appropriately to the demands of society is of utmost importance, promptly commencing the political and economic reforms the country needs.
To a large extent, the success of this political process will depend on the ability of the new authorities to reach an inclusive consensus on a legitimate constitutional framework, with democratic institutions based on free and fair elections. On this basis, the Spanish Government expresses its desire to keep working with the Sudanese authorities to finally normalise its relations with the international community.
Spain reiterates its condolences for the loss of human lives during the protests, and calls for the release of all political prisoners and for all those responsible for human rights violations to be brought to justice.

An award winning playwright and screenwriter who was known for the authentic characters he brought to life on stage and screen.
The quiet cotton-farming community of Wharton, Texas, is the touchstone for the career of playwright and screenwriter Horton Foote.
Born in 1916 and raised in Wharton, Foote first dreamed of becoming an actor. But he soon discovered that his true genius lay in writing, not performing.
In 1953, Foote's television drama "The Trip to Bountiful" aired on NBC to great acclaim. The story — about an elderly woman's determined journey back to the Texas town where she was born — was a Broadway hit and, later, a popular film.
Foote went on to win Academy Awards for his adaptation of To Kill a Mockingbird and for his original screenplay for the film "Tender Mercies." In 1995, Foote received the Pulitzer Prize for Drama.
In May 2011, Humanities Texas reproduced a conversation between Ramona Cearley and Horton Foote in our monthly e-newsletter. The text was originally published in Conversations with Texas Writers, a volume released by The University of Texas Press in 2005 in honor of Humanities Texas's thirtieth anniversary.
Full listings of Foote's writing credits are available at the Internet Movie Database, the Internet Broadway Database, and the Internet Off-Broadway Database.
The Horton Foote Papers are housed at the DeGolyer Library at Southern Methodist University. The papers include photographs, albums, and correspondence. Some items in the digital collection are viewable online.
A 1986 interview with Horton Foote on the subject of his writing process and influences is available at the Texas Archive of the Moving Image.
The Horton Foote Society promotes the study of Foote and his work through intellectual inquiry and research, academic conferences, popular and academic publications, public lectures, and the public presentation of plays.

« Lions bite off more than they can chew? NEVER!
Malton Town Council has for many years sponsored a winter party for the senior citizens of Malton and for the last two years Malton, Norton and District Lions Club have had the responsibility of organising the event. Following its success in 2017 Lion Yvonne Daykin again took charge of the arrangements, ably assisted by Lion Annie Harrison and Lions Club members. Historically Malton Rotarians have always both made a donation to the cost of the event and assisted by providing transport to get people to and from the Rugby Club which hosts the party and this year was no exception. Lions are very grateful for their assistance and the contribution from all sponsors listed below.
The party started in the late afternoon with drinks on arrival and a welcome from Malton's Mayor Councillor Paul Andrews after which a lovely three course dinner was served. The tables had each been decorated with party hats, crackers and a display of fresh spring daffodils.
Lion Vice-President Steve Siddaway and Yvonne present a bingo prize to none other than Yvonne's mum!
After dinner the tables were cleared and bingo cards distributed ready for Yorkshire Coastliner's celebrity driver Eamonn and team to display his other talents as a bingo caller and all-round entertainer. Our guests played three cards, each for a line and full house for cash prizes and the first game resulted in two full houses and the prize being shared.
Eamonn also assisted by calling out the winning raffle numbers which, with the vast number of prizes, kept the Lions on their toes as they rapidly distributed them from the display table to the winners around the room. So successful had Lion Yvonne been in getting prizes donated that despite almost 90 guests, we ran out of tickets to draw before all the prizes had been distributed. So a bit of quick thinking and all the tickets went back in the hat to be drawn again until the last prize was won!
As with all Lions events we always both welcome and often rely on help from the Friends of Lions and a number of both partners and friends played an important part on Friday helping to set up and keep the evening on track.
Lion Annie with Mary Rohan who helped us on the evening in charge of cracker quality control!
…and here are a selection of our bingo and raffle prize winners being presented with their prizes.
Finally, after the bingo and raffle Eamonn and his team entertained the guests with a medley of songs specially put together for a very special Malton audience.

All meaningful or nonzero data is allocated, whereas all nonmeaningful data (large strings of data that is composed of zeros) is not allocated. When a sparse file is read, allocated data is returned as stored, and unallocated data is returned, by default, as zeros, in accordance with the C2 security requirement specification. Sparse file support allows data to be deallocated from anywhere in the file.
In a sparse file, large ranges of zeroes may not require disk allocation. Space for nonzero data will be allocated as needed when the file is written.
Only compressed or sparse files can have zeroed ranges known to the operating system.
If the file is sparse or compressed, NTFS may deallocate disk space within the file. This sets the range of bytes to zeroes without extending the file size.

NFL Draft Top Pick Options
Chargers Request Interview With Rams Coach Greg Olson
The Chargers have requested an interview with yet another Rams assistant, this time Greg Olson
Matt Galatzan and Connor Zimmerlee
The Los Angeles Rams coaching staff has already seen significant turnover this offseason, with multiple assistants being fired last week, and even more still interviewing for positions elsewhere.
This is especially true for their offensive staff, as those working with Sean McVay are still a hot commodity in the NFL. Among those looking to fill a vacancy is the Rams' Los Angeles neighbors, with the Chargers looking for a new offensive coordinator.
On Monday morning, that trend continued with the Chargers requesting an interview with Rams senior offensive assistant Greg Olson for the role of offensive coordinator.
The Chargers, who recently fired previous offensive coordinator Joe Lombardi after a disappointing 2022 season, also requested an interview with Rams quarterbacks coach, Zac Robinson.
Olson, who is in his third stint with the Rams, first joined the franchise in 2006 in St. Louis, serving as the offensive coordinator for two seasons.
He then joined the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as the quarterbacks' coach in 2008 and was promoted to offensive coordinator in 2009.
In 2012 Olson joined the Jacksonville Jaguars staff as the assistant head coach and quarterbacks coach, before moving to the Oakland Raiders as the offensive coordinator for two seasons. He then went back to Jacksonville as the offensive coordinator from 2015-16.
Olson was hired by the Rams for his second stint with the franchise in 2017 as the team's quarterbacks coach, before being named as the Raiders' offensive coordinator from 2018-2021.
When new Raiders coach Josh McDaniels was hired in 2022, he did not retain Olson, leading to his return to Los Angeles.
For the Chargers, who are looking to take advantage of their window with an elite quarterback like Justin Herbert, Olson makes plenty of sense, and would bring plenty of experience to Brandon Staley's offensive staff

Jemma Lucy Launches Dating App For Tattooed People Just Weeks After Breaking Up With Stephen Bear
Will you be joining?
Ex On The Beach contestant, Jemma Lucy is launching her very own dating website.
The site, named DatingInk.com is designed for people just like her - who have a love of tattoos.
> Blac Chyna's Dramatic Post-Baby Weight Loss is Insane!
The tattooed model and reality TV star who recently split from Celebrity Big Brother winner, Stephen Bear, came up with the idea after a friend of hers declared that she was "unlucky in love".
Jemma's main gripe with apps like Tinder is that "you have to swipe through hundreds of profiles before you find someone with tattoos and it takes ages!
You get bored and switch off. When you join Dating Ink you know that you're going to see loads of profiles of people with tattoos".
She was also quick to add that "you don't need to have tattoos to use the site, you just have to love them! My mission is to bring tattoo lovers together!"
At the moment, the site is only accessible on your phone, tablet or desktop but there are plans to release an app.
The model and TV star is definitely qualified to offer advice about dating. Having enjoyed romances with Geordie Shore's Gaz Beadle and Scotty T, as well as The Only Way Is Essex's Kirk Norcross, she knows what it takes to make a relationship work... or not work.

Jamki – wąwóz w Ojcowskim Parku Narodowym (OPN). Jest bocznym, orograficznie prawym odgałęzieniem Doliny Sąspowskiej, do której uchodzi nieco powyżej Źródła Harcerza znajdującego się przy szlaku turystycznym przez Dolinę Sąspowską. Wylot wąwozu zamknięty bramą skalną zwaną Bramą Jamki. Orograficznie lewe obramowanie tworzą Garncarskie Skały, prawe Skały Malesowe. Przed bramą skalną jest duży stożek napływowy utworzony z materiału nanoszonego przez wodę płynącą wąwozem po większych opadach deszczu. Stożek ten spycha płynącą dnem Doliny Sąspówki Sąspówkę przeciwległemu zboczu doliny.

Jest to dzikie uroczysko o dnie z progami, zawalonym różnej wielkości głazami. Zbudowany ze skał wapiennych wąwóz powstał w wyniku działalności wód, jest jednak suchy, woda bowiem wskutek procesów krasowych spływa do Sąspówki podziemnymi szczelinami. Zatarasowany jest powalonymi drzewami i porośnięty bujną roślinnością. Występuje tu ciekawa fauna i flora. W dolnej części wąwozu znajdują się dobrze zachowane płaty buczyny karpackiej. W skałach wąwozu jest najliczniejsze na całym terenie OPN skupisko dużych jaskiń i schronisk. Miejscowa ludność nazywała je jamami i stąd pochodzi nazwa wąwozu. Są to m.in.: Jama Ani, Jaskinia Sąspowska, Jaskinia Zbójecka, Jaskinia Biała, Jaskinia Krakowska, Jaskinia Lisia, Jaskinia Złodziejska, Pustelnia.

Na początku XX w. w wąwozie Jamki biegła droga gruntowa łącząca Ojców z Jerzmanowicami. Najprawdopodobniej w okresie I Wojny Światowej (1914-1918) wyłożono ją częściowo drewnianymi balami (podobnie jak pobliską Drewnianą Drogę z Ojcowa do Skały). W okresie międzywojennym w wąwozie Jamki planowano budowę drogi asfaltowej z Ojcowa do Krakowa. Jednak dzięki staraniom prof. Władysława Szafera udało się zmienić te plany i drogę poprowadzono w latach 1927-1928 tzw. serpentynami. Po powstaniu Ojcowskiego Parku Narodowego w 1956 r. w wąwozie wyznaczono szlak turystyczny. Po uznaniu wąwozu Jamki za obszar ochrony ścisłej w 1984 r. zamknięto szlak dla turystów. Wejście do wąwozu było możliwe jedynie po uzyskaniu zgody dyrekcji OPN . Na początku XXI w. OPN fizycznie zamknął wejście na ścieżkę w wąwozie Jamki m.in. od strony Doliny Sąspowskiej. W efekcie w kolejnych latach istniejąca wówczas jeszcze ścieżka została w naturalny sposób zlikwidowana przez przyrodę.

Wąwóz Jamki ma dwa odgałęzienia: Pradła i Dzikowiec. Po połączeniu z wąwozem Skałbania tworzą Wąwóz za Krakowską Bramą. W górnej części wąwóz Jamki ulega znacznemu spłyceniu i wychodzi na wierzchowinę Wyżyny Ojcowskiej w lesie przy drodze krajowej nr 94 w Jerzmanowicach.

New Year, New Record for Men's Basketball
Alexis Dill, Sports Editor|February 15, 2019
The men's basketball team looks to conclude their regular season on a high note tomorrow at Wabash College, after compiling the team's best record in over a decade. The leadership and perseverance of the upperclassmen have been indispensable to the team's success.

With 2.3 seconds left on the clock and the basketball in his hands, College junior and point guard Josh Friedkin didn't miss a beat, swishing an off-balance jumper to secure a triple-overtime victory over the Allegheny College Gators last Wednesday. Three days later, Friedkin posted his first career double-double — 15 points and 10 assists — against the Hiram College Terriers, helping the Yeomen set a new program record for the most North Coast Athletic Conference wins in a season.
Friedkin has been a key piece of the puzzle since his first year, when he appeared in all 25 games and was second on the team in assists with 75. He ran plays alongside Jack Poyle, OC '17, who started in 75 of the 99 games he played in as a Yeoman and scored 1,187 points, 16th-best in school history. Even so, that year's team narrative was completely different.
In the 2016–17 season, the Yeomen won just three games, compiling an overall record of 3–22 and a conference record of 2–16. The following year, Friedkin scored a team-high 346 points and racked up 77 assists and 29 steals, but the team still posted a mediocre record of 12–14 and won only half of their conference matchups. Now, for the first time in over a decade, the Yeomen have a winning percentage over .500 both overall and in conference play.
A culmination of circumstances have guided the program's turnaround — the most obvious being Head Coach Isaiah Cavaco's exceptional job of recruiting talented student-athletes who are both coachable and hardworking.
College senior and co-captain Eli Silverman-Lloyd has been pivotal to the team throughout his career. He compiled a career-high 323 points as a junior and has already scored 299 points this year to go along with a career-high 52 assists. On Jan. 30, he became the 25th player in school history to score 1,000 career points, though he did so in a 70–80 loss to the Ohio Wesleyan University Battling Bishops.
As the only senior on the team — excepting honorary senior Patrick Smith, a 3-2 engineering major — Silverman-Lloyd has provided exemplary leadership.
"He has been excellent for us all year long," Friedkin said. "If you want to talk about a steady presence on and off the court, a guy who you know is going to give you everything he has night in and night out, then Eli is your guy."
Silverman-Lloyd's co-captain, College junior Christian Fioretti, leads the league with 4.5 assists per game — while Friedkin is third in the league with 3.9 assists per game — and College junior Andre Campbell is well on his way to joining the 1,000 career points club, as he currently sits at 818 and has hit key shots all season.
However, even more than pure talent, Friedkin credits the program's upslope to the simple fact that the team's juniors and seniors are sick and tired of losing.
"The current junior class, myself included, was not happy with just getting to be a part of a collegiate basketball program," he said. "We wanted to win games, and we wanted to be known around the league as a team that was not an easy win, as Oberlin has been in previous years. I think having to endure that three-win season our [first] year made us that much more determined to change the storyline of Oberlin basketball."
Another one of Cavaco's key moves that paid off was hiring Assistant Coaches Nate Axelrod and Jalen Goodwin over the summer. One year prior to his arrival at Oberlin, Axelrod was the 2018 D3Hoops.com Player of the Year at Ohio Wesleyan and won the Jostens Award, which recognizes the nation's most outstanding DIII basketball player, taking into consideration performance on the court, academics, and community service. As a four-year starter and three-time All-American, he played on teams that won three NCAC titles, made two NCAA Tournament appearances, and appeared in the 2015–16 Sweet Sixteen.
"[Axelrod] had to deal with every opponent game-planning for him specifically for over 100 games, but nobody could really stop him from controlling the game," Cavaco said. "You have to be a great leader, teammate, and student to pull that off."
Axelrod handles scouting, player development, and recruiting for the Yeomen, and has already made a big impact on many of the players — especially Friedkin, who plays the same position that Axelrod did.
"I'd say he's helped me the most with some mental aspects of the game, specifically making plays in the pick-and-roll," Friedkin said. "It's not a surprise that a large percentage of my points and assists come out of these plays."
Goodwin has also helped reinforce a winning culture, having made it to four NCAA Tournaments as a member of The College of Wooster basketball team.
"Jalen was a great team guy at Wooster, as he played with a lot of stars but always managed to be one of the most important pieces on a winning team … by making open shots when teams focused on the top guys, playing outside his natural position, and being a leader in the locker room," Cavaco said.
Although the Yeomen narrowly dropped an important game to Goodwin's alma mater — the No. 14 team in the nation — Wednesday night, the team is looking ahead to their last regular season matchup with No. 24 Wabash College on Saturday.
"We feel that we are peaking as a team right now, which is perfect for the end of the season," Silverman-Lloyd said. "We have shown that we can beat the mid-conference teams, so our next challenge is defeating the top teams."
The fifth-seeded Yeomen will play in the NCAC Tournament Quarterfinals Tuesday. Their opponent has yet to be determined.

SRP Senator Hong Sok Hour is taken to court in Phnom Penh, Aug. 16, 2015.
Cambodian authorities are refusing to allow doctors from the human rights group Licadho to visit a jailed opposition lawmaker held at Prey Sar prison in the capital Phnom Penh, claiming the facility already provides adequate care, sources said.
Their refusal constitutes a form of "discrimination" against Sam Rainsy Party (SRP) senator Hong Sok Hour, who was arrested in August after challenging Cambodia's ruling party on its handling of a border dispute with neighboring Vietnam, the senator's lawyer told RFA's Khmer Service on Wednesday.
"This is nothing more than discrimination against an opposition party member," the senator's lawyer, Chhoung Chou Ngy, told RFA.
Chhoung Chou Ngy said that he had earlier asked the Phnom Penh Municipal Court to allow a Licadho doctor to visit his client, who suffers from a stomach ailment, but that the court had refused permission.
And though doctors from Licadho were allowed at that same time to provide medical care to other prisoners, they have now been banned from all contact with anyone held at Prey Sar, he said.
Hong Sok Hour was arrested by Cambodian police on Aug. 15 after Prime Minister Hun Sen accused him of treason for posting on Facebook a disputed diplomatic document relating to the country's border with neighboring Vietnam.
In an ongoing dispute with the ruling Cambodian People's Party (CPP)—the Cambodia National Rescue Party (CNRP)—a merged political grouping that includes the SRP and is led by Sam Rainsy--contends that Vietnam has been encroaching on Cambodian territory at various spots along the 1,228-kilometer (763-mile) border.
Licadho had been permitted since 1992 to send doctors to treat patients in 18 prisons across Cambodia, but is now banned from Prey Sar because political opposition figures are jailed there, said senior Licadho investigator Am Sam Ath.
"We are very disappointed, because we were formerly allowed to provide medical treatment [at Prey Sar]," he said, adding that his group's motivations are strictly humanitarian.
"We treat not only prisoners, but also prison guards," he said.
They won't let anybody in to see the senator and they won't let him out on bail either. This is a tactic of torturing and intimidating.
Hun Sin will get his turn to sit in prison soon.
I am glad that you put this story online so people can know who is doing what.

Q: Elden Ring - How to apply the Seppuku buff on *both* weapons? I was playing yesterday with this guy and he applied the Seppuku buff on both his weapons (as you can see - dual Falchion I think).

How? I am dual wielding 2 spears and both have the Seppuku Ash of War on them.

A: You should be able to do this by two-handing your off-hand spear, using the Seppuku ability, then returning to using both weapons (or two-handing your main-hand spear), and using the Seppuku ability a second time.
This should apply the buff to both weapons.
To two-hand a weapon, you need to hold down the event-action button (Triangle on PS5, Y on XBox) and press the corresponding armament attack button for the left or right armament you wish to wield with two hands (R1/RB for right hand, L1/LB for left hand). You can then utilize the Ash of War that's currently equipped for the weapon you're two-handing.
For a visual example of someone applying the Seppuku buff to both their off- and main-hand weapons, you can watch the first few seconds of the following video by THE GAMER EYES:


Without making sweeping generalisations most people have childhood memories that contain Roald Dahl. Many of us will have read at least one of his books, seen one of the film adaptations. Some of us may have memories of devouring all of the books of his they could find, one after the other.
I had read Boy years ago and retained a blurred memory of having loved the tales of his childhood, though I wouldn't have been able to tell you any of those stories. As I read, the memories came back, this time with them, the overwhelming sense of creative mastery. The stories foretell the inspiration behind those works of genius still to come. The testing of chocolate in boarding school sowing the seeds of inspiration for the iconic Charlie and the Chocolate Factory or the mouse in the gobstobbers perhaps the idea behind The Witches.
What is clear from this collection is that the reader becomes aware they are reading work from a fine story teller, one who has indeed mastered the craft. Every part of Boy is fascinating, from the history of how his parents met to how he gained the opportunity to go to Africa through his work. He is quite open with how joyous some memories are, and how difficult other periods of his life were to endure.
The other stories in the collection are also interesting to read. The theme of innocence is threaded throughout. This could be the innocence of a bullying victim, the innocence judged on outward appearance or innocence assumed to be lacking in another. Having read Boy first, the inspiration for some of the short stories or indeed on one occasion the possible inspiration for Boy, is apparent. I'm sure there was some cathartic quality to some of the writing but also a lesson being told – 'this happened to me, just like possibly did to you. I'm still ok, I've made a success of my life and you can too'.
There are hints of the darker tones that thread throughout his other novels. Adept at show not tell, undercurrents of threat and malice are generated by the reader, whist the story itself may on first appearance be innocent. This should come as no surprise to most readers familiar with Roald Dahl. He is famous not just for his children's stories but also for his adult fiction such as Tales of the Unexpected and the memorable short story Lamb to the Slaughter. Even his children's books feature threatening enemies, warnings of the results of being spoiled and situations that boarder on child neglect.
Innocence is part of a new collection being reissued by Penguin. Together with Fear, Trickery and War the quartet has been curated with further works by Dahl and by authors he admired and given covers featuring striking artwork by Charming Baker.
Reading Innocence reawakened in me the love of Roald Dahl's work. Granted this wasn't love that was very dormant as I am now at the stage of encouraging my children to read his work, or at least have it read to them. As I read more of Boy and the other short stories I realised just how important his stories were to my childhood and the millions of other children who have read his books over the years. The genius of storytelling is, to me, to be able to engage a diverse audience, to hold them rapt, whatever their background. To have your stories told for decades after they were written and for new audiences to fall in love with them. To be able to draw a reader completely into a world that they are immersed. I hate to use the word genius lightly but in Roald Dahl's case it is a title to which is justly warranted. Innocence is a glimpse into that genius, one that made me want to re-read more of his tales. Highly recommended.


Wherever we go injuries and minor ailments keep following us and strike us sometimes at the most unexpected time.
There are many homeopathic remedies that will safely and effectively take care of such problems. It would be wise to keep homeopathic first aid remedies at home and carry them with you whenever you are traveling.
Bruises: Arnica 30 C would help relieve the pain and swelling which appear after a fall or an injury.
Abrasions & Lacerations: Calendula 30 C may be used to help in the healing of the wound and prevent infection. Calendula Q (external) may be diluted with sterile water and used for cleaning and dressing the wound. When there are injuries to parts that are supplied with a lot of sensory nerves (like the tips of the fingers), Hypericum 200C will relieve the pain and soothe the inflamed tissue.
Sprains: Apply ice to the part for at least 15 minutes. This will lessen the pain and swelling of the joint. Rhus toxicodendron 200 C should be taken internally to cause early healing.
Burns: Put the burnt part under flowing tap water. This will cool the tissues and prevent the deeper tissues from being damaged. Cantharis 200 C given internally will help heal the skin and soothe the burning pains. It is also known to prevent blisters if taken immediately on being burnt. Cantharis Q (external) may be diluted with sterile water and used for cleaning and dressing the wound.
Bone injuries: For superficial injuries involving the periosteum, Ruta 30 C should be taken internally. If you suspect a fracture of the bone, try to immobilize the part by splinting the limb, and rush to your doctor. The bone may need to be set or if there has been severe injury and displacement of the bone fragments, surgery may be required. At the same time you should take Symphytum 30 C. Calcarea phosphorica 6x is a biochemic remedy that helps in the repair of bones.
Insect bites and pin/needle pricks: Wash the part with soap and take Ledum 30 C.
Bee stings: Apis 200 C will reduce the redness, swelling and burning of the part.
The dose is 3 pills to be kept under the tongue 3 or 4 times daily. External applications may be diluted in sterile water and used as a dressing. If symptoms persist or seem to get worse, it would be wise to consult your physician.
For homeopathic consultation for your symptoms you may visit Homeopathic Healing or send an e-mail to office@drvaishnav.com to meet the Homeopathic Specialists.
Disclaimer: A detailed history followed by constitutional treatment by good and qualified homeopathic specialists is necessary to treat the complaints that appear during any disease. It is not advisable to resort to self-medication for any disease. The above-mentioned drugs are just a few of the remedies and are mentioned solely to create awareness about the efficacy of homeopathic medicines.

Йёрдис Фредрика Нордин-Тенгбум (; 2 января 1877, Стокгольм — 11 января 1969) — шведская художница и скульптор.

Биография и творчество
Йёрдис Нордин родилась в Стокгольме в 1877 году. Она была младшей из пятерых детей плотника Ларса Аугуста Нордина. Её старшая сестра Алиса стала скульптором, и Йёрдис пошла по её стопам. Вначале она училась в Технической школе, а затем в 1890 году поступила в Королевскую академию искусств, где обучалась скульптуре у Йона Бёрьесона. Затем, с 1903 по 1906 год, она училась в Париже, в Академии Жюлиана и Академии Коларосси. В этот период она выставляла свои работы в Салоне Марсова Поля. Кроме того, в Швеции нашлись заинтересованные меценаты, оказавшие поддержку молодому скульптору. Она, в свою очередь, создавала для них различные интерьерные украшения, посылая их из Парижа в Стокгольм.

В 1905 году Йёрдис Нордин вышла замуж за архитектора . Они работали в общей мастерской, и Йёрдис помогала мужу раскрашивать эскизы. Затем супруги вернулись в Швецию, у них родилось четверо детей, и Йёрдис уже не могла уделять достаточно времени занятиям скульптурой. Тем не менее она продолжала заниматься тем, что отныне называла своим хобби. С 1907 по 1914 год Йёрдис Нордин-Тенгбум выполняла самые разнообразные заказы, создавая иллюстрации для Svenska Dagbladet, обложки для книг Даниэля Фальстрёма, обёртки для мыла, этикетки для пивных бутылок, экслибрисы, карикатуры, бижутерию, портретные медальоны и памятные таблички. Кроме того, она принимала участие в ряде архитектурных проектов, реализованных её мужем. Самой значительной её работой стал скульптурный рельеф для Стокгольмского концертного зала, известный под названием «Barnorkestern» и изображающий тринадцать нагих младенцев, играющих на различных музыкальных инструментах.

В 1931 году состоялась ретроспективная выставка Йёрдис Нордин, на которой было представлено 30 её работ, получивших положительные отзывы критиков. Помимо скульптуры, Йёрдис Нордин также работала в технике гравюры и акварели.

Йёрдис Нордин-Тенгбум умерла в 1969 году и была похоронена на Северном кладбище в Сольне.

Calling for a "shift in culture" toward increased access to justice, the Supreme Court held that "summary judgment rules must be interpreted broadly, favouring proportionality and fair access to the affordable, timely and just adjudication of claims." This shift in culture will undoubtedly affect construction claims. Those practicing construction litigation should be ready to deal with more summary judgment applications utilizing new principles.

"The Martian," "The Revenant" Lead 73rd Golden Globe Awards
by Jana Monji
The 73rd annual Golden Globe Awards began under threat of rain again, but nothing dampened the glitter of stars nor the gall of host Ricky Gervais. The big winner was Twentieth Century Fox with six Golden Globes. The big losers were the original big three TV networks (ABC, CBS and NBC) who received no awards. Gervais noted that NBC was the perfect network to broadcast the event because it didn't have a single nomination.
Gervais started out greeting "global megastars" and the gold diggers "who married well." Gervais claimed he was a changed man, but "not as much as Bruce Jenner." As Caitlyn Jenner, Gervais noted, "She became a role model for trans people everywhere, showing great bravery in breaking down barriers and destroying stereotypes," and yet "she didn't do a lot for women drivers."
Gervais' opening monologue mentioned two films. He noted that "Spotlight" made "the Catholic Church furious … as it exposed the fact that five percent of all their priests have repeatedly molested children and been allowed to continue to work without punishment" and that "Roman Polanski called it the best date movie ever."
Then he addressed something that quite a few people had wondered: "The Martian" being deemed a comedy, saying, "To be fair, 'The Martian' was a lot funnier than 'Pixels,' but then again, so was 'Schindler's List.'"
Gervais further noted that the Golden Globe-nominee and eventual winner, Jennifer Lawrence, "demanded equal pay for women in Hollywood" and that he was getting paid "exactly the same as Tina [Fey] and Amy [Poehler] did last year" and that "it's not my fault if they want to share the money is it?"
Alejandro G. Iñárritu was gracious in his acceptance speeches for Best Motion Picture (Drama) and Best Director for "The Revenant," thanking "Mark L. Smith, Mike O'Reilly, Parner, all of the Native Americans who helped us make this film possible." In his Best Director acceptance speech he also added, "I was lucky to be saved and rescued by the incredible crew, cast, producers that we struggled for so many months long and perilous in very difficult conditions to make this film happen, but we all in this room know very well that pain is temporary, but a film is forever. Right? So who cares."
In the press room, he was asked about the bear attack that sets off the chain of events in "The Revenant," and Iñárritu commented that it took months of planning. "I interviewed a crazy guy who did bear attacks in Montana. He witnessed over 100 bear attacks. He told me so much about it. I was absolutely shocked about how a mother bear can feed her cubs and that's it. It is a very natural thing, right? A mother feeding her kids, as we do every day, with chickens or with cows or with fish. But this time we are the prey." He admitted to using every technique possible, including CGI "in order to have an impact by and witness something they will never witness in real life." This is Iñárritu's first Golden Globe for Best Motion Picture. Last year he shared a Golden Globe for Best Screenplay ("Birdman or the Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance").
Leonardo DiCaprio, who won Best Performance by an Actor in a Motion Picture (Drama), who stood beside Iñárritu to field questions commented, "I am not supposed to talk in great detail about how that was done. Alejandro has watched over 100 different bear attacks, but what he creates in that sequence is almost virtual reality and awakens other senses. I think people are talking about it for good reason. It is going to go down in the history of cinema as an amazing visceral, tactile sequence that makes people feel like they are there. Yes, it was incredibly difficult to do. We rehearsed for weeks beforehand on just that sequence."
DiCaprio also said that "I think people appreciate being in a different type of cinema out there, more visceral type of movie, really submerged ourselves in the elements. Alejandro shot this whole film in natural life in nine months in very rough conditions. I think people honestly want to see that type of cinema. There's very little CGI in this movie. It is used very sparingly. Other than that, it is us immersed in this world. That type of unique cinema is something I want to see more of in this industry. I want to see people stepping up to the plate to take chances on movies like this because I am just a fan of film. So the fact that the film won tonight and was acknowledged, all the better. Because we want to see more films like this coming out of the Hollywood studio systems. It is harkening back to an era in the '70s where the director was king. To me, cinema is a director's medium. And if they have a unique and strong vision, people should stand behind them. That's what was done in this movie, and that's why it turned out the way it did."
In his acceptance speech, DiCaprio thanked Iñárritu, the entire crew, his good friend Tom Hardy, his make-up artist Sean Grigg as well as others, but he also stated, "I want to share this award with all the First Nations people represented in this film and all the indigenous communities around the world. It is time that we recognize your history and that we protect your indigenous lands from corporate interests and people that are out there to exploit them. It is time that we heard your voice and protected this planet for future generations." DiCaprio previously won a Golden Globe in 2014 for "The Wolf on Wall Street."
Backstage, Brie Larson, winner of Best Performance by an Actress in a Motion Picture (Drama) for her role in "Room," commented that working on the movie "made my heart grow several sizes. There was such a sense of devotion that I had to have to go to work every day and everything I was doing was directed toward the boy who played my son (Jacob Tremblay). To work on a film where I was always worried about him and happy and felt comfortable and he was in a space that he felt creative in and watching him flourish with that made me so happy every day. That was enough."
Larson also noted, "I am not used to being in the cycle of talking about the same movie for as long as I have. The thing I found is that I have discovered the movie in many different ways, and it changed about three times in the eight months of press I have been doing. To find new meaning in this movie is absolutely incredible." When asked what attracted her to this role and her role in "Short Term 12," Larson replied, "As I got older I realized with moviemaking, we can trick people into anything we want. I feel a great sense of responsibility to tell things as honestly as I can and be as vulnerable as possible. Because vulnerability is the strongest thing you can do." This is Larson's first Golden Globe.
Jennifer Lawrence didn't strive to be a media darling when she came backstage after winning Best Actress in a Motion Picture (Drama) for "Joy." For her acceptance speech, she thanked Joy Mangano for her story which is what inspired the movie, but back stage she remembered when she too faced closed doors. "I got told no a million times. You weren't going to become a successful actor and not be told many, many, many times. I really wanted it to work. I wanted to do absolutely everything that I could do before giving up. I had a five-year plan, but yeah, I definitely had to convince people to hire me."
While Aziz Ansari was filmed during the awards ceremony reading a book "Losing to Jeffrey Tambor with Dignity," backstage when a reporter began asking Lawrence, "How did you see yourself?" Lawrence shot back, "You can't live your whole life behind your phone, bro. You got to live in the now" before she let him finish his question. He then asked, "How do you see yourself for Oscar night?" She responded curtly, "We're at the Golden Globes. If you put your phone down, you'd know that." This is Lawrence's third Golden Globe for Best Actress with the previous ones for the 2014 "American Hustle" and the 2013 "Silver Linings Playbook."
A reporter later asked a gracious Lady Gaga about the Oscars even though she won for Best Performance by an Actress in a Limited Series or a Motion Picture Made for Television ("American Horror Story: Hotel").
Ridley Scott accepted the Golden Globe when "The Martian" won for Best Motion Picture (Musical or Comedy). He had been nominated for Best Director. Scott put things in perspective during his acceptance speech saying, "I was just quietly enjoying 'The Martian''s cume when along came a juggernaut called 'Star Wars.' I was left in the dust, except we did pretty good. That put everything into perspective because, you know, our business is like a sport, and that kind of success—we had success, and 'Star Wars'" majestic success, actually, it's inspiring. You've got to stay hungry and keep bouncing the ball. That's me. 'Martian' began with a very smart book by Andy Weir and adapted to a brilliant screenplay by Drew Goddard." He did compliment Matt Damon for his special brand of humor, but backstage, when asked if "The Martian" was put in the correct category, Scott replies, "Bearing in mind I am carrying this right now (Golden Globe statue). I have nothing else to say on the grounds that it may incriminate me."
Matt Damon was humorous but also contemplative when he won Best Performance by an Actor in a Motion Picture (Musical or Comedy) for "The Martian." Damon commented in his acceptance speech that "I was here 18 years ago. It's literally been 18 years since I've been here doing this. With a little more context, I know how lucky I am and how lucky I am to do this for a living. When people go see movies, it's just—it's kind of rare. I've made a lot of movies that people just didn't go to see." In the press room, when Damon was asked if "The Martian" is a comedy, he replied, "No, it is a musical and I think that's what the 18-year-gap was, was me working on my singing, which really is what brought me here tonight." Damon was nominated for Best Performance by an Actor (Drama) for "Good Will Hunting," but won a Golden Globe with Ben Affleck for writing "Good Will Hunting." (Peter Fonda won Best Actor that year for "Ulee's Gold.")
Sylvester Stallone didn't learn to sing, but he was very humble during his acceptance speech noting "Last time I was here, that was 1977. I was kind of hit by tumbleweed. It was a long time ago. It's like a different, different situation and the view is so beautiful now." Stallone thanked his wife and children and others, but he also thanked "my imaginary friend Rocky Balboa for being the best friend ever." Stallone was nominated for Best Actor (Drama) and Best Screenplay for "Rocky" but lost to "Network" in both categories (Peter Finch won Best Actor [Drama] that year).
Kate Winslet was shocked to win, but did give a shout out to girl power when she won Best Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role for "Steve Jobs." Backstage, she elaborated by stating, "There's a real sense of girl power this year in terms of performance. It is incredible to be a part of that." She noted that "Joanna Hoffman, who I forgot to mention in my speech because I didn't think I was going to be making one so I didn't prepare one. Joanna Hoffman was very pleased with the film and commented how wonderful it was to see Steve Jobs's warmth come through in Michael's portrayal of Steve. So that meant a lot to Michael."
Winslet also complimented Aaron Sorkin, who won for Best Screenplay, saying "When I first read the script, I so couldn't imagine how it would be possible to even pull off something of that size. It is 187 pages long. I mean, it is just an incredible undertaking for all of us as actors and Danny Boyle as the director." On Joanna Hoffman, she commented, "I just knew this was a woman that was nothing like me, looked nothing like me, was from a world that I know absolutely nothing about, and I wanted that challenge. That's what acting is. That's where you get to play the most and pretend the most is when you are playing a part that you never anticipated would come your way. So for that reason really more than anything, I felt that I really wanted to take on the challenge."
Winslet previously won a Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Mini-Series or a Motion Picture Made for Television ("Mildred Pierce") and for Best Actress in a Motion Picture (Drama) for the 2008 "Revolutionary Road" where she was reunited with her "Titanic" co-star DiCaprio.
Denzel Washington who was given the Cecil B. DeMille Award lost his speech and both his wife Pauletta and he were without glasses. They did not come backstage. Washington has won two Golden Globes (Best Actor for "The Hurricane" and "Malcolm X").
If you're keeping score, Susan Wloszczyna (@Wozerina) guessed right on eight out of nine categories, only being wrong on Kate Winslet's win. "The Revenant" won three awards, "The Martian" won two as did "Steve Jobs." Twentieth Century Fox won six and Universal Pictures earned two. A24, Sony Pictures Classics, Sony Pictures Releasing, Walt Disney Studios, Warner Bros. Pictures and The Weinstein Company won one each.
For television series, "Mozart in the Jungle" and "Mr. Robot" won two awards. That gave Amazon Prime Video and USA Network two each. AMC, The CW, FOX, FX, HBO, PBS and Showtime earned one Golden Globe each.

I don't know about you, but I'm a big HUD fan. And I swear by my keyboard. If you're like me, here's a development you would not want to miss. Ubuntu 14.04 LTS will debut keyboard filtering for Unity spread feature, which is pretty great news for keyboard junkies like me.
A very power-user friendly feature which didn't break the normal workflow for the average user, just like HUD. What do you think?

The magazine cover not only features the British monarch, but also captures her beloved family members – her four dogs: Holly, Willow, Vulcan and Candy.
Two corgis and two dorgis – a breed engineered by the queen herself using her own corgis and dachshunds belonging to her late sister, Princess Margaret, sit happily with their mother.
The cover photo was part of a series of photos taken by esteemed photographer Annie Leibovitz after Easter this year.
The photographer was invited into the Queen's home to capture her milestone birthday on April 21.

Nigerian reported to have died in Ukrainian air crash speaks out
One Mr Bernard Adeleye, referred to as Nigerian Boeing trainee reported to be among the victims of the ill-fated Jan. 8 Ukrainian plane crash in Iran, says he is still alive.
Adeleye, who is the Commander, Lagos Neighborhood Safety Corps, Odi-Olowo Ojuwoye Local Development Area Command, made the clarification at a news conference with his lawyer, Mr Femi Martins, on Wednesday, January 15, 2020 in Lagos.
He told newsmen that his picture was wrongly used by some media depicting that he was the Nigerian that died in the Ukraine plane crash.
According to him, "I am not dead; in fact, I have never travelled to Ukraine before.
"I have never travelled by air before let alone travelling to Ukraine.
"So, why will someone use my picture and claim that I was the Nigerian that died in the Ukraine plane crash?
"The picture that was used in the publications was the same picture that I used on my Instagram page in 2018, and this was the exact outfit I am putting on now.
"This has really affected me as I now wear face cap to cover my face because whenever I am walking on the road, people called me 'dead man walking'," he said.
However, Martins said that the alleged plane crash victim wore the same shirt on the picture used to confirm that he was the person referred to in the fake news.

There's a campaign running at the moment to rebrand History of Art and clear up some of the myths surrounding the subject. It's seen as a posh subject, studied by posh girls, and with good reason too: A-level History of Art is offered at only 17 state secondary schools out of more than 3,000, plus a further 15 sixth–form colleges. By contrast, over 90 fee-paying schools offer the subject.
I not only studied it at school, but went on to read it at university. And yes, the majority of the people I met while studying it were posh girls from privileged backgrounds. At university, the course was read by a number of foreign female students too, but their backgrounds were similar: privileged girls hailing from wealthy cities around Europe – Paris, Milan, Berlin.
I've never quite understood why History of Art should have such a bad reputation though. The reason I first picked it was because I wanted to study history, but not necessarily through the lens of politics or warfare. Instead, I was keen to study it through a cultural lens – which I believe to be just as good a way of understanding a civilization as any.
History of Art shouldn't just be offered in private schools – but for a long while it has been, and as a result, this worthwhile, vigorous subject has been tarnished with the posh brush. It's not helped by Kate Middleton standing in front of her vile portrait in the National Gallery, and saying it's 'brilliant. Just amazing. Absolutely brilliant'. Nice girls saying nice things about paintings that are clearly not nice shouldn't be the point of the subject. It's a meaty one, if given the chance.
So let's imagine it in a different guise – as a chance to study the Nazis through the art they looted; as a way of understanding the Reformation through the paintings deemed sacrilegious; as an opportunity to revisit British political history through the eyes of Hogarth, Gillray and Cruickshank.
Michael Gove has said he wants state schools to aspire to become more like private schools. Offering History of Art seems a good place to start.
Life drawing and the mastery of the male form was an essential part of artistic study in the Victorian period. But what if the student was a woman?
