The Shepherd's Hut
I received an ARC of this book courtesy of Harry Hartog.
"The Shepherd's Hut" by Tim Winton is about a teenage boy called Jaxie on the run from the dregs of a brutal start to life in a small Western Australian town. Escaping on foot, he ends up in a salt lake wasteland with dwindling supplies. When he has almost run out of food, water and ammunition, Jaxie comes across a shepherd's hut, occupied by a stranded and mysterious elderly Irishman called Fintan. The two are very wary of each other, but come to an uneasy truce to not ask any questions about the other's past. Fintan's generosity with his basic larder of food, and his uncertainty about when, or even if, replacement supplies will arrive, means that they cannot permanently hide away from their world.
Although this was quite an easy book to read, it is a difficult book to review. The book is written in a kind of stream of consciousness narrative from the perspective of Jaxie, and this is without a doubt the highlight of the novel. Jaxie is a brilliant character full of untold complexity who is both the product of his upbringing as well as a fresh and unique voice. Winton portrays a young man with a sharp mind, one already full of knowledge and understanding if not education and experience. Jaxie's raw, untempered thoughts are arresting, and hurtle the reader through the book. Although his words may paint him as a tough and harsh kid, it quickly becomes clear that Jaxie is very sentimental and craves to be seen as worthwhile.
This is definitely a book to make you think, and I have been thinking about it quite a bit since I read it, but I'm still not quite sure what to make of it. It's a very compelling story, but some parts of it I felt were rushed or jammed on. In fact, I think I was in maybe the last eighth of the book, and I couldn't believe it was about to end and couldn't possibly see how everything would be resolve (or at least finalised).
I think the tenuous and cagey friendship between Jaxie and Fintan, the centrepiece of the book, was a prime example of this. Winton spends the majority of the book setting up the characters and putting them into a kind of routine, and then just when you felt like the friendship was about to become interesting, the book rushes into a ending that to me felt so coincidental and unlikely that it was jarring. I appreciate the technique of leaving a book open-ended, but I think how you get to that open end is important, and I'm not sure the final climax was really the best choice.
Tim Winton has been writing and speaking extensively about toxic masculinity, and I think for the most part that this book absolutely explores some of the nuances of expressing masculinity and what it means to be a man. However, again, the jarring ending meant that the message felt really muddled and I wasn't quite sure what the point was anymore.
The language Winton used also obscured the purpose of the book and left me with a lot of questions about class and audience. Jaxie is styled with a very idiosyncratic, colloquial yet thoughtful way of speaking which is very engrossing. However, it also really made me wonder who exactly the audience of this book is intended to be. Is it meant to be for more privileged, metropolitan Australians to give them a taste of wild country life, or is it meant to make it more accessible to blue collar Australians and resonate with them through shared language? Is it meant to be both? I'm just not sure.
Anyway, I can't really write too much more about this book without giving things away, but essentially this book was a smack around the head and my ears are still ringing. If you're looking for something to make you think, make you feel and make your jaw drop, this is it. If you're looking for a comfortable read, you're not going to find it here.

J.K. Rowling is taking her former assistant to court after discovering some heavy discrepancies in monthly credit card statements.
J.K. Rowling is taking her former assistant, Amanda Donaldson, to court for using a business credit card for personal purchases.
Donaldson worked for Rowling from February 2014 to March 2017. In that time, the BBC reports that the former employee bought $31,115 worth of personal items with the card. The author first noticed discrepancies Donaldson's monthly statements in February 2017. She was consequently fired the next month for personal spending.
So what kinds of things was Donaldson buying with Rowling's card? Some include a whopping $2,144 spent on Starbucks and $4,755 at Molton Brown, a cosmetics company. She also apparently bought two cats for $1,572!
Additionally, Rowling claims that Donaldson stole over $3,000 worth of Harry Potter toys without her consent. And, as if all that wasn't enough, the former assistant is also accused of taking $10,146 from Rowling's safe of foreign funds.
Goodness gracious. That is quite a hefty amount.
Donaldson is denying all claims made against her.

The world would be a much more naked place.
What is good? --All that heightens the feeling of power, the will to power, power itself in man. What is bad? — All that proceeds from weakness. What is happiness? — The feeling that power increases — that a resistance is overcome.

Brexit: 'Bumpy' period expected as UK adjusts to new EU rules
By Gaynelle Marshall on	 28th December 2020 News
There will be "bumpy moments" for UK businesses and travellers as they get to grips with new EU rules, says government minister Michael Gove.
He said there would be "practical and procedural changes" when the Brexit transition period ends on 31 December.
Mr Gove also urged people going to the EU to make extra checks, including mobile phone roaming charges.
European ambassadors have given the go-ahead for the post-Brexit trade deal to come into effect on 1 January.
Diplomats provisionally approved the deal at a meeting on Monday morning. The deal, which was agreed on Christmas Eve, is expected to be officially signed off by the EU Council and the EU Commission on Wednesday.
In the UK, MPs will vote on the deal on Wednesday.
Meanwhile, UK International Trade Secretary Liz Truss said she expects to sign a continuity trade agreement with Turkey this week – a move that was not possible until the deal with the EU was struck.
Mr Gove told BBC Breakfast: "I'm sure there will be bumpy moments but we are there in order to try to do everything we can to smooth the path."
He warned businesses that time was "very short" to make the final preparations before the transition period ends.
"The nature of our new relationship with the EU – outside the Single Market and Customs Union – means that there are practical and procedural changes that businesses and citizens need to get ready for," he said.
"We know that there will be some disruption as we adjust to new ways of doing business with the EU, so it is vital that we all take the necessary action now."
Businesses have been urged to make sure they understand the new rules on importing and exporting goods, including the different rules that apply to trade with Northern Ireland, and to consider how they will make customs declarations on EU trade.
Mr Gove also encouraged travellers to EU destinations from 1 January to take out comprehensive travel insurance, check their mobile phone provider's roaming charges and make sure they have at least six months left on their passports.

I JUST WISH IT WOULD STOP BLOODY RAINING!!!!
1. Melt butter, add garlic and onion and cook over medium heat for 4-5 mins. Add spices and cook for further 1-2 mins.
2. Add parsnip slices, sweat them briefly, add stock. Cover and simmer on low heat for appx 15 mins.
3. Remove pan from heat, leave to cool slightly then blend until smooth.
4. Return to pan and stir in milk, heat gently for appx 2-3 mins then add half sour cream (if using) and squeeze of lemon juice. Season to taste.
5. Serve with swirls of yoghurt or the remaining sour cream and chopped fresh herbs (chives, coriander…) and naan bread.
This recipe, from River Cottage, has been the most successful I've used yet but you might have your own. The recipe calls for 2 tsp curry paste, but I never have any so I just use garam masala instead. I also sometimes use more stock to cook it and then add a smaller amount of cream at the end instead of milk, or just use yoghurt as that's what I most often have in the fridge.

Yale Wins Ivy Gridiron Title – First Since 1980
December 27, 2017 /in Advice for Athletes, News /by Michael Goran
Yale's football team has won or shared the Ivy title 15 times since the League's formation in 1956, but they've suffered a championship drought for 37 long years. The Bulldogs ended their dry spell on Saturday, November 18, by beating arch rival Harvard 24-3 in the 2017 edition of The Game. Yale secured their program's first unshared Ivy League championship since 1980.
It was the first time that Yale (9-1, 6-1 Ivy) had beaten Harvard (5-5, 3-4 Ivy) at the Yale Bowl since 1999. It also marked the first time that the Bulldogs had won two straight in the Harvard-Yale series since winning three in a row from 1998-2000.
Yale's only loss this year was by one point, 28 – 27, to Dartmouth's Big Green gridders on October 7 in Hanover, New Hampshire. However, Yale prevailed in away games over both of last year's co-champions, Penn, their long-time rivals, by 24 – 19 on October 21, and Princeton, 35 – 31 on November 11.
In the season's final game, Bulldog QB Kurt Rawlings threw for 177 yards and a touchdown. Melvin Rouse and Zane Dudek combined for 106 yards on the ground and another TD. But it was Yale's defense that dominated the afternoon. The Bulldogs held the Crimson scoreless after a 29-yard field goal on their opening possession and held their offense to just 164 total yards in the game. Yale defenders sacked freshman QB Jake Smith six times and forced four turnovers.
Rawlings and receiver J.P. Shohfi put up Yale's first points in the second quarter, connecting on a 46-yard pass and then following up three plays later with a 9-yard completion to the left corner of the end zone. Yale soon increased their lead when Harvard's Smith blew an option play and fumbled a hasty pitch. Linebacker Malcolm Dixon scooped up the ball and ran it in 19 yards for a touchdown. On the last play of the first half, another errant pitch by Smith set up a Yale 25-yard field goal, giving the Bulldogs a 17-3 lead at the half.
Dudek's 2-yard scoring run in the fourth quarter capped an eight-play 81-yard drive that put the game out of reach. Dudek's 64 yards rushing were well below his season average of 119 per game. The Yale freshman finishes the year with 1,133 yards on just 159 carries, an average of more than 7 yards per carry.
Other football conferences lack parity and are dominated by one or two strong teams from the start of the season, which detracts from fan interest. However, this cannot be said of the Ivy League. On November 10, with only two games left in the season, it was still possible that the Ivy League would end the 2017 season in a 7-way tie for first place. Obviously, all games would have needed to go a certain way. Yale needed to lose its last two games to fall to 4-3. Harvard, Columbia, Dartmouth, and Cornell had to go 1-1, moving them to 4-3, and Penn and Princeton needed to win both of their last two games, raising them to 4-3.
The 2017 season didn't end in a 7-way tie (the Wall Street Journal estimated the odds against at 200 to 1), but the fact that it was even mathematically possible that late in the season makes the Ivy League a rarity in Division I-AA football, and a long thrilling ride for its fans.
The Ivy League does not participate in college football's Division I-AA Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) playoffs, so the Ivy gridiron season ended on November 18.

Haute Review: Baaji is a Meera vehicle abated by flimsy turns
by Syeda Zehra
Saqib Malik promised his directorial debut for the big screen to be a potpourri of all things classic. Baaji was promoted as a social drama-cum-thriller but the film delivered on so many other grounds (lacking on many as well). It is set against the backdrop of a fading Lollywood and the film depicts this devolution in all manners; from withering star power, insecurities, obsession to manipulation and chicanery.
Here's a film which not only has an ensemble cast, but one where each actor has a style of their own. The two ladies — Meera as Shameera and Amna Ilyas as Neha — for instance, are polar opposites in their acting techniques. While Meera looks the part and even acts like a diva, there is an inevitable clash between the two actors' prowess. Meera's expressions, though slightly over-the-top sometimes, are undoubtedly a winner. When the actress doesn't try to playact, she can give any Gen Z star a run for their money. There's one scene in particular where she is looking at herself in the mirror and you can spot doubt, fear and uncertainty in her eyes.
Amna, on the other hand, is subtle and plays the aspiring middle-class beauty parlour girl-turned-star's manager quite convincingly. At times, we have a feeling that she is a social climber as she latches on to anyone who may have the means to improve her social standing. However, that's not always a negative quality after all Neha had the best of intentions for Shameera.
Shameera's obsessive boyfriend Remy (Ali Kazmi) is as crazy as the actress. He wants her to leave her failing career and settle down, and then also cannot stand others taking advantage of her. At one point, he even tries to produce a film for her. Perhaps it's the bad boy charm or something else but I actually rooted for him during the first half of the film. Mohsin Abbas Haider had a blink-and-miss role as Neha's admirer and for the longest time I questioned his presence in the film, until the climax when one action by him changed the narrative drastically. The film has one recurring gesture between Neha and Ajji which the viewers will surely remember for many days to come.
It's high time we start awarding Nayyar Ejaz for his exceptional talent. He is like a chameleon who can transform into any character and own it like its tailor-made for him. His stint as the former manager of Shameera, aka the malicious Chand Kamal, is impeccable. Moving on to Osman Khalid Butt; he is essaying the role of Rohail Khan, a Hollywood-returned film director who appears to be a Good Samaritan for Shameera's salvation. Rohail offers Shameera a film at their very first interaction during an interview. The whole plot line seems too good to be true and it's worsened by the unimpressive love angle that emerges out of nowhere (watch the film to find out with whom). When asked by Begum Nawazish Ali (aka Ali Saleem) why did he come back to Pakistan to make a film, Rohail's answer bowled us over with fits of laughter. He replies, 'Kyun ke Dil Dil Pakistan!' Believe me this is an actual dialogue in the film and oddly enough the cheesiest one.
Fem-jep (female in jeopardy) is an established and popular genre in Hollywood films where a heroine goes through ridiculous and destructive situations at the hands of men in her life. We have seen such examples in Bollywood as well such as Madhur Bhandarkar's Fashion. Baaji falls under the same category with a twist as Shameera suffers from the society's indifference and her delusions at the same time.
As far as soundtrack is concerned, the highlight of the music album is unfortunately remixed Lollywood's classics, Khilti Kali and Ye Aaj Mujh Ko Kya Hua, establishing the fact that we still need to work hard to produce chartbuster soundtracks.
Baaji also shows the emerging new order of the Pakistani film industry which is as glossed over as the reality (hint: watch a ballroom party scene where Tariq Amin speaks a few words about Shameera). In Baaji, you'll witness all that is said about the trappings of super stardom and its repercussions. Written by Saqib Malik and Irfan Ahmed Urfi, the film is knitted with nuanced performances for the most part but like most of the Pakistani flicks, it lacks a satisfying ending.
Spoiler alert: At the pinnacle of the story, the writer threw such a twist that altered the genre of the film altogether and that was one subplot which seemed uncalled for. The glam was concealed by murder, mystery, revenge, unnecessary scheming and an unbelievable con and yet all of it was resolved without much effort.
Baaji forsakes much of its potential in its urge to please the crowds with plot twists and cliffhangers. It lets go of the fine distinction which was the core of the movie, i.e. the transition from Lollywood to new-age cinema however, it is far more engaging than most films. And all thanks to Saqib Malik, the millennials will now see Meera beyond her gaffes and faux pas, as a fantastic actress.

Added clearbar command, first-run help & hints prompt, and use the date callback for more accurate output.
Added support for weechat's new colour eval in buffer timestamp, which is used for bar output.
Small update to chanmon & highmon, to give users who somehow keep managing to close their buffers a way to recreate it.
Added the much request feature to merge private messages into *mon displays.
Changed channel colour to use the API, in preparation for WeeChat 0.3.4, which removes a few config options in favour of a single one, for 256 colour support.
Small bug fixes to both scripts; the .logging variable was not correctly turning buffer logging back on.
Okay, so I may have neglected doing an update for a while. Well have a new version of chanmon and highmon then.
By popular request, v2.1 now has an 'nchannel' option for alignment, to display both buffer numbers and channel names together.


Materfamilias is Latin for 'female head of the house.' No other beer we make commands as much attention and devotion as she. From the brewhouse to the barrels, your Mother's remains at the service of this exquisite imperial stout. Roasted malt brings rich flavors of chocolate and dried fruit. In the aging process, the beer's interaction with the wood of bourbon, rye whiskey, rum, and brandy barrels dictates the composition of the final blend. Materfamilias cannot be rushed. It cannot be forced. It brooks no compromise. The result is a stout of such complexity and nuance that you, too, will recognize the authority of your Materfamilias.
PROFILE: Rich dark chocolate, barrel tannin and spirit alcohol, sugar cane and nougat.
Materfamilias by Mother's Brewing Co. is a barrel-aged Imperial Stout and is being evaluated as a Wood-Aged Beer (category 33A from the 2015 BJCP Beer Style Guidelines). Imperial Stouts are the strongest of the stouts frequently displaying flavors of roasted, chocolate, and coffee from the malt. For Wood-Aged Beers, the best examples have a "harmonious blend" between the base beer and the wood/spirits resulting in a flavorful, complex blend. Materfamilias ages their Imperial Stout in bourbon, rye, brandy and rum barrels and measures in at 11 percent ABV.
Materfamilias pours opaque, pitch black with a small brown head. The aroma is a strong harmonious blend of dark malts and esters with characters of roasted, chocolate, plum and prune that melds well with prominent spirit and barrel elements of bourbon, toasted oak, vanilla, and red wine. The body is medium despite the strength; a pleasant, abundant alcohol warmth greets mid-flavor and lingers long in the finish. The flavor is a wonderful melding of dark malts, esters, spirits, and barrels: chocolate, roasted malt, plums, prunes, vanilla, toasted oak, bourbon and dark rum. The finish is lightly bittered with a light sweetness lingering long with complex roasted and chocolate malt with wonderful barrel flavors of vanilla, toasted oak, bourbon, red wine and dark rum. Enjoy! Seek this one out!


Please contact =MXT=Fred.cpp or [eAu]Phreeze to obtain a copy of the latest version for testing. We will also be contacting those people who had already requested Beta 1 to provide you the updated version.
Note: The Linux build should also be ready very soon.

Our collection of personal injury solicitors will take up your case on the understanding that he or she will not be paid if the compensation claim is unsuccessful.

How We Work: Making a Claim
Once we have established that a third party was to blame for the accident, and we agree to work together, our solicitors** will send a claim letter to the person or company responsible for the injury. We will also contact and specialist such as medical professionals if we feel an expert opinion will help to support the case.
The defendant then has three months within which to reply, and in most cases this will happen much quicker. In their reply back to us they will state whether or not they accept liability for the accident. If they do then our lawyers will seek to settle the case outside of court.
Settlements like this are the most common, and very few of our clients will ever need to attend court. Settlements will be managed by the guilty party's own solicitor and insurance company.
Our panel of personal injury solicitors** will tell you what we think the compensation amount and offer should be. If the third party accepts our offer and agrees on the payment amount then the wheels will be set in motion to have the case closed and paid up.
Court Settlements
In rare cases where the two parties cannot agree then our lawyers** will advise you on whether we believe a legal case should be brought, which could involve court proceedings. As we said though, this is very rare.
Taking Action Against an Employer
One of the more common accident claims that our team deal with are work accident claims. Understandably many people are concerned about bring a personal injury claim against a company that they currently work for.
We understand these concerns. It's only natural for you to worry about this type of scenario. However, the law is on your side, and is specifically designed for instances such as this.
All employers and companies are required to have insurance policies designed to protect them financially from accidents at work. What this means is that it's not your employer who will have to pay accident and injury compensation, but instead their insurance company.
Not only that, but UK legislation has strict statutes in place that mean businesses cannot discriminate against an employer or worker who has made a claim.

The zolpidem discriminative cue is mediated by GABAA-α1 receptors, whereas the chlordiazepoxide cue may be mediated via non-α1 GABAA receptors because compounds with selective affinity for GABAA-α1 receptors fully generalize to the former cue. We predicted that L-838,417 [7-tert-butyl-3-(2,5-difluorophenyl)-6-(2-methyl-2H-1,2,4-triazol-3-ylmethoxy)-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-b]pyridazine], a partial agonist at non-α1 GABAA receptors and an antagonist at GABAA-α1 receptors, would generalize to the chlordiazepoxide but not the zolpidem-discriminative cue. SL651498 [6-fluoro-9-methyl-2-phenyl-4-(pyrrolidin-1-yl-carbonyl)-2,9-dihydro-1H-pyridol[3,4-b]indol-1-one] is a full agonist at GABAA-α2 receptors, with lower efficacy at GABAA-α3 receptors and least efficacy at GABAA-α1 and GABAA-α5 receptors. Because SL651498 has efficacy at GABAA-α1 receptors, we anticipated that it would generalize to both discriminative cues. Rats were trained to discriminate either zolpidem (3 mg/kg) or chlordiazepoxide (5 mg/kg) from vehicle using a two-lever operant procedure. The generalization profiles of L-838,417 and SL651498 were compared with nonselective full agonists, GABAA-α1-selective ligands zolpidem and CL218,872 [3-methyl-6-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-b]pyridazine], the nonselective partial agonist bretazenil, and the novel anxioselective drug ocinaplon. A nonselective partial agonist was included because L-838,417 and SL651498 are partial agonists at some GABAA receptors, and this property may influence their generalization profiles. All nonselective full agonists and ocinaplon fully generalized to both cues. CL218,872 and zolpidem generalized to zolpidem only, whereas L-838,417 fully generalized to chlordiazepoxide only. SL651498 fully generalized to chlordiazepoxide and occasioned significant zolpidem-appropriate responding. Bretazenil was similar to SL651498. In conclusion, at this training dose, the chlordiazepoxide-discriminative stimulus is mediated primarily via non-α1 GABAA receptors and the generalization profiles of the ligands tested seem to correspond with their in vitro profiles at GABAA receptor subtypes.

«Секрет фирмы» — российский журнал, а впоследствии интернет-издание о предпринимателях, компаниях, находках в сфере менеджмента и прикладных проблемах бизнеса. Выходит как отдельное издание с сентября 2002 года. C декабря 2014 года принадлежит Rambler&Co. Выпуск бумажной версии прекращён с декабря того же года, но издание продолжило существование как сайт.

История
«Секрет фирмы» был создан Юрием Кацманом в октябре 2001 года в качестве ежемесячного приложения к еженедельному журналу «Деньги» издательского дома «Коммерсантъ». Приложение возникло для освещения бизнес-семинаров, проводимых издательским домом в сотрудничестве с Высшей школой экономики и Harvard Business School. В дальнейшем, когда у издательского дома отпала необходимость в приложении, Кацман с партнёрами выкупили «Секрет фирмы» и с сентября 2002 года стали выпускать журнал сперва два раза в неделю, затем — еженедельно. В 2004 году на базе журнала был создан издательский дом, который также выпускал газету «Бизнес» и журналы «Имеешь право» и «Все ясно». В ноябре 2005 года ИД «Секрет фирмы» приобрёл примерно за 7—10 млн долларов интернет-издание Gazeta.ru.

Коммерсантъ
С весны 2006 года издательский дом искал покупателей на свои убыточные издания (выручка ЗАО «Секрет фирмы» по РСБУ в 2005 году — 216,75 млн руб., чистый убыток — 323,56 млн руб.). 22 декабря 2006 года было объявлено, что газета «Бизнес» выкуплена группой «Московские новости». Сумма сделки составила, по оценкам экспертов, около 5—6 млн долларов, тогда как ещё осенью «Издательский дом Родионова» планировал выкупить издание за 10—13 млн долларов. В тот же день была закрыта сделка с «Коммерсантом», выкупившим остальные издания. Бывшие владельцы — инвестфонд Cube Capital UK Limited (70 %), Александр Локтев и управляющий директор Юрий Кацман — получили примерно 40 млн долларов. В 2007 году новый владелец закрыл журналы «Имеешь право» и «Все ясно», а «Секрет фирмы» преобразовал в ежемесячный журнал.

Долгое время «Коммерсантъ» издавал два конкурирующих издания: «Деньги» и менее популярный «Секрет фирмы» (российская аудитория изданий, по данным TNS Russia за март — июль 2014 года, равнялись 238 тыс. и 193,3 тыс. человек старше 12 лет для одного номера соответственно). При этом у последнего рентабельность в 2013—2014 годах была ниже, он генерировал убыток при годовой выручке, по оценке «Ведомостей», около 60 миллионов рублей.

Rambler&Co
В 2014 году «Коммерсантъ» получил предложение от неназванной компании купить издание, через некоторое время интерес к сделке проявил Rambler&Co. 14 ноября 2014 года между двумя холдингами начались переговоры, 25 декабря было объявлено, что сделка состоялась. За бренд «Секрет фирмы» и право использовать в публикациях электронный архив журнала, по оценке источников «Ведомостей», Rambler&Co отдал 10 миллионов рублей. Тогда же стало известно, что декабрьский печатный номер журнала будет последним (тираж на ноябрь 2014 года — 65 000 экземпляров). Предполагалось, что в издании останется часть коммерсантовской команды. Однако Марина Иванющенкова, главный редактор на протяжении 13 лет, решила не переходить в Rambler&Co. В конце месяца стало известно, что издание может возглавить редакционный директор Look At Media Николай Кононов и что вместе с ним на новое место работы перейдёт несколько человек из объединённого с сайтом городских новостей The Village в июле 2014 года издания о бизнесе Hopes&Fears.

Уже 12 января Кононов и четверо ключевых сотрудников редакции перешли в «Секрет фирмы». В дальнейшем в новый проект ушла вся команда Hopes&Fears, кроме шеф-редактора Анны Соколовой и редактора Юрия Болотова. К уходу из Look At Media, по словам Кононова, подтолкнула серия решений руководства холдинга: сперва слить H&F c The Village и тем самым закрыть бизнес-издание, за полтора года набравшее ежемесячную аудиторию около 800 тысяч человек, а после использовать бренд для нового англоязычного лайфстайл-издания. В обновлённую редакцию «Секрета фирмы» не вошли журналисты «Коммерсанта», за исключением многолетнего сотрудника журнала Николая Гришина. Издание существует как независимое подразделение внутри Rambler&Co.

19 марта 2015 года сайт перезапустили на новом домене secretmag.ru. На тот момент над «Секретом фирмы» работали 14 человек. Тогда редакция заявляла о планах выпускать более 20 материалов ежедневно. Монетизация запланирована за счёт медийной и контекстной рекламы, а также спецпроектов. В феврале 2016 года издание вошло в число сайтов, на которых Rambler&Co совместно с МТС тестировал платное отключение рекламы.

Ежемесячная аудитория «Секрета фирмы» к сентябрю 2017 года составляла 1 млн читателей. 25 сентября стало известно о сокращении сотрудников с 15 до 5. Причиной сокращения называлось недостижение точки безубыточности. По данным «Ведомостей», бюджет издания был урезан в четыре раза. Издание планировало отказаться от публикации новостей, оставив статьи, колонки и лонгриды, которые, как было заявлено, в основном будут писать приглашённые авторы. Новым главным редактором стала Дарья Черкудинова, Николай Кононов перешёл на позицию редакционного директора и планировал сфокусироваться на развитии сайта.

В апреле 2019 года был назначен новый главный редактор Филипп Вуячич, до этого занимавший другой пост в Rambler&Co, главного редактора «Афиши».

Продажа Сбербанку
Сбербанк инвестировал в капитал Rambler Group в 2019 году в обмен на долю 46,5 %. В июле 2020 года банк довёл свою долю до 55 %, в октябре того же года стал единственным владельцем холдинга, выкупив у Александра Мамута оставшиеся 45 % акций. Но так как российский закон «О СМИ» запрещает иностранцам владеть напрямую или косвенно более 20 % в любой компании-учредителе российского СМИ, то Сбербанк, в котором юрлицам-нерезидентам по состоянию на 1 августа 2020 года принадлежало 43,5 %, был вынужден найти СМИ нового владельца. С 9 ноября чуть больше 80 % ООО «Медианна» (юрлица, через которое группа Rambler управляет своими СМИ) контролирует Сергей Шишкин, до июля 2020 года работавший в «Газпром-Медиа» на должности управляющего директора субхолдинга «ГПМ Развлекательное телевидение».

Награды
По состоянию на август 2021 года журналисты издания «Секрет фирмы» трижды получали журналистскую премию «Редколлегия».

Луций Мамилий (; ум. после 458 до н. э.) — диктатор Тускула в середине V века до н. э.

Вероятно, близкий родственник Октавия Мамилия, правителя Тускула в конце VI — начале V века до н. э.

Оказал римлянам вооруженную поддержку при подавлении выступления Аппия Гердония, захватившего в 460 до н. э. Капитолий. По сообщению Ливия, узнав о происходящем в Риме, он созвал сенат Тускула и призвал направить в Рим союзный отряд, не дожидаясь официальной просьбы о помощи. Тускуланский отряд прибыл в Рим и участвовал в штурме Капитолия. Это единственный известный случай, когда силы римских союзников применялись в самом Городе.

В следующем году римляне оказали ответную услугу тускуланцам, чей город внезапным ночным нападением захватили эквы.

В 358 до н. э. единогласным решением сената Луцию Мамилию было даровано римское гражданство. Согласно традиции, сохраненной Ливием, это произошло в самый день триумфа Цинцинната (13 сентября 358 до н. э.), вернувшегося после победы при Альгиде. Это был первый случай персонального предоставления гражданства иностранцу за заслуги перед римским государством. В последующей юридической практике он рассматривался как прецедент.

The major averages ended a down week on a lower note as the S&P 500 shed 0.4% to widen this week's loss to 1.1%. Shortly after opening in the red, the benchmark index briefly turned positive, but just like yesterday, it was unable to make a sustained move above the 1,700 level. The S&P notched its low as the European session ended before erasing about half of its losses over the course of the afternoon.
Nine of ten sectors ended in the red while materials outperformed with a gain of 0.6% after China's industrial production report surpassed estimates (9.7% actual, 9.0% forecast). Steelmakers and miners rallied broadly, but Molycorp (MCP 6.69, -0.72) headed in the opposite direction after missing on earnings and revenue. The materials sector was the only group that registered a gain this week, rising 0.8%.
Other commodity-linked sectors did not fare as well. Energy underperformed with a loss of 0.5% even as crude oil advanced 2.5% to $106.02 per barrel. Meanwhile, the industrial sector (-0.3%) ended slightly ahead of the S&P, but transportation companies underperformed as the Dow Jones Transportation Average shed 0.6%.
Meanwhile, the remaining cyclical groups ended in mixed fashion. Technology (-0.4%) underperformed while financials (-0.3%) and discretionary shares (-0.3%) settled ahead of the broader market. The discretionary sector received some support from Priceline.com (PCLN 969.89, +36.14) after the company beat on earnings and revenue.
With regard to countercyclical groups, health care (-0.4%) and consumer staples (-0.4%) did not deviate from the S&P while rate sensitive utilities (-0.7%) and telecom services (-1.0%) lagged.
Treasuries were very quiet today and the benchmark 10-yr yield slipped one basis point to 2.58% after spending the day in a three point range.
Light volume persisted throughout the week and today was no different as less than 650 million shares changed hands on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange.
Today's economic data was limited to wholesale inventories, which fell 0.2% in June after declining a downwardly revised 0.6% (from -0.5%) in May. That was the third consecutive monthly decline and the fourth monthly drop so far in 2013. The Briefing.com consensus expected wholesale inventories to increase 0.4%.
The Bureau of Economic Analysis assumed that wholesale inventories were flat in June in the advance estimate for second quarter GDP growth. The downward surprise will add a minor negative contribution to the revisions in the second estimate.
On Monday, the July Treasury budget will be released at 14:00 ET.
On Monday, the S&P 500 shed 0.2% as eight of ten sectors settled in the red. Stocks slipped out of the gate after better-than-expected economic data from China and Great Britain was unable to spark an early bid. Equities climbed off their early lows before receiving an additional push following the release of the ISM Non-Manufacturing Index, which posted its best reading since February 2011. Although the data provided stocks with a boost, the S&P never made it into the green as comments from Dallas Fed President Richard Fisher knocked the key indices off their highs. Mr. Fisher said the Fed's bond buying program may lay the groundwork for misallocation of resources and fuel future inflation. In addition, he said the market could expect a slowdown in asset purchases later in the year if the economy continues to "improve along the lines envisioned by the Committee."
Tuesday's session saw the S&P settle lower by 0.6%. Stocks spent the first 90 minutes of the session in a steady decline as cyclical sectors pressured the index below the 1,700 level with financials, materials, and industrials leading to the downside. All top-weighted banks ended in the red with Citigroup (C 51.32 -0.46) posting the largest loss among the majors. Meanwhile, the broader sector slid 0.9%.
On Wednesday, the S&P shed 0.4% to register its third consecutive decline. The benchmark index fell to its lows during the first hour of action before spending the remainder of the session in a slow climb. Stocks sold off at the open after Asian indices endured a downbeat session with Japan's Nikkei falling 4.0% as dollar/yen continued its recent weakness. The pair fell below 97.00 into the Asian close and additional selling during the U.S. session pressured it into the 96.50 area. The relative strength of most countercyclical sectors helped the benchmark index erase about half of its losses during the afternoon. Health care and telecom services ended little changed while utilities registered a modest gain of 0.5%. For its part, the consumer staples sector (-0.5%) lagged.
Thursday's session began with modest gains after upbeat data from China helped ease some concerns regarding the pace of global growth. The Middle Kingdom reported an increase in exports (+5.1% actual, +3.0% expected) and imports (+10.9% actual, +2.1% forecast) while its trade surplus narrowed to $17.82 billion from $27.10 billion. Shortly after the start of the session, the S&P notched a high of 1,700.20 before aggressive selling pressured the benchmark index back to its flat line. The slide coincided with notable dollar/yen weakness that sent the pair below 96.00 for the first time since June 19. The slide in equities and dollar/yen was halted shortly after the first hour of action. Stocks then returned to their highs but the S&P was unable to reclaim the 1,700 level. The rebound took place as most cyclical sectors outperformed with materials in the lead. The sector advanced 1.5% as the Chinese data underpinned steelmakers and miners.

Q: How to create an optional yes / no radiobutton in your viewmodel Say I have long form, with many different optional values a user can enter.
One of these optional values is a boolean. Depending on the user input, I need to do the following in my database:

*

*If "yes", then add "1" in the database

*If "no", then add "0" in the database

*If non is entered, add "null" in the database

However, the most normal viewmodel / razor code I could find is the following:
    @Html.LabelFor(m => m.FurnitureIsIncluded)
    @Html.RadioButtonFor(model => model.FurnitureIsIncluded, true) Ja

Here my value would be false, as the default value of a boolean.
What is the way to fix this in MVC?

A: Use a nullable bool for FurnitureIsIncluded in your view model
@Html.RadioButtonFor(m => m.FurnitureIsIncluded, "true")Yes
@Html.RadioButtonFor(m => m.FurnitureIsIncluded, "false")No
@Html.RadioButtonFor(m => m.FurnitureIsIncluded, "", Model.FurnitureIsIncluded.HasValue ? null : new { @checked = "checked" })Cant decide

This will then post back true or false or null based on the selection. You would then need need to test for true/false to save the value as "1" or "0"

Gary Pinkel gets a big raise and an extension
By VoxMediaUser136261 Nov 21, 2008, 9:32am PST
Share All sharing options for: Gary Pinkel gets a big raise and an extension
It looks like Gary Pinkel isn't going anywhere because Missouri is rewarding him with a big raise and extension.
Missouri and its football coach, Gary Pinkel, have agreed in principle to a lucrative contract extension that will make him one of the highest-paid coaches in the country, according to sources.
"Basically, he'll be able to end his career at Missouri," a source close to the situation said.
The length of the deal is not known, but the extension will include a sizable raise for an annual salary of approximately $2.5 million.


Fancy French food is great and all, but sometimes you want something that has a little more soul... or something. I don't know what the words I'm looking for are, but this dish somehow felt like "home"... For reasons related to the fact that I was going to have pork shoulder left from my Chorizo-making and the fact that flatbreads make me really really really happy, I decided to check out a recipe from Norman Van Aken's New World Kitchen for Pork Columbo in Roti as my "official" cookbook adventure this week.
After searing the pork (in batches) in a dutch oven, the cooking liquid is left in the pot with the addition of a little butter, then in go the onions, ginger, scallions, garlic, and Scotch bonnet chili. Things smelled a lot like heaven at this moment.
The pork is added back to the pan and tossed to coat in the yumminess now residing there.
This simmers for about 15 minutes, and then come the veggies: peeled red potatoes, carrots, and acorn squash (substituted, as directed, for the calabaza that was nowhere to be found at Russo's this week).

Percy left New Zealand in the mid-1960s and became a hugely respected artist and illustrator overseas.
His works are held in the National Galleries of Scotland yet since his early years in Auckland they have never been exhibited publicly in New Zealand before this exhibition tour.
The exhibition is curated by leading art critic, curator and poet, Gregory O'Brien.
Graham Percy (1938 - 2008) grew up in Taranaki, Warkworth and Auckland. After graduating from Elam School of Fine Arts in 1959, he embarked on a career as illustrator/designer/artist. He also designed some award-winning Crown Lynn crockery.
He won a scholarship in 1964 to study at the Royal College of Art, London and upon graduation, established himself as a freelance designer and illustrator in the United Kingdom.
During the last years of his life, Percy focused on his own drawings, including spending time thinking about what it meant to be an artist - particularly a New Zealand artist, working in Great Britain. He lived in London until his death in 2008.

"There's so much more that can be done" – Futureworks staff organise Covid-friendly fundraiser in memory of student
By Sophie Hodgetts on 26th November 2020 in Community, News
Staff members from Futureworks in Salford are completing a 5000km exercise challenge to remember one of their students this month.
Following the loss of Music Production student Mark Clayton to suicide earlier this year, 12 employees from the school have teamed up to raise money for Mind, the mental health charity chosen by Mark's family.
Martyn Ellis, 34, has worked at Futureworks for five years and is doing his bit by biking to and from his face-to-face teaching sessions.
The audio engineer and lecturer said: "We're very small, so why I think a lot of the staff have really gotten involved in this is that we know our students on a one-to-one basis.
"There's a family that Mark's left behind and there's tutors who are still coming to terms with the fact that there's a face that's not going to be there this year for them, and that's difficult."
The group will be individually walking, running, rowing and cycling to reach their 5000km target in line with coronavirus restrictions.
Martyn described: "It's actually really great, it's bonded us a lot more than I thought it would.
"We've got this group chat and everybody's pitching in and having a chat.
"My pedal came off my bike on Sunday, so everybody had a good laugh at that!"
There's tutors who are still coming to terms with the fact that there's a face that's not going to be there this year for them…
Since starting their six-week challenge at the beginning of November, the Futureworks staff have almost tripled their £500 target by raising £1,345.
However, Martyn is conscious that further donations would be invaluable to the charity.
He said: "We've done alright so far, but the fact of the matter is there's so much more that can be done.
"We're all people who want to make a difference, and if we can raise more money for Mind and get more support for more people then that's great."
As students at Futureworks adapt to a new way of learning during the COVID-19 pandemic, their teachers want them to make sure they are looking after their mental health.
Martyn commented: "I think anyone at the moment who says that their mental health hasn't been impacted by spending all of their time indoors every day or sat at home looking at a screen is lying.
"Life is honestly, I would say, it's harder than I've ever known it in some respects.
"It's okay to not be okay but know that there's people out there to help."

The plan on this trip was to try and climb Manakau (2600m) on the Seaward Kaikouras on the rest day. However, a long previous day on the water meant that we set off for our bivy late, it was after midnight and we had not got far enough up Fidget stream. An alpine start wasn't happening the next morning... so we went searching for hot springs up "hot spring creek" - but alas no sign of them! Nevertheless, it was a full day's exercise and some of us even climbed a hill to watch the sunset.


Burton Seniors remain stable with 52 members as of April 10, 2017. We also have 4 honorary members.
Our activities include the following: coffee time Tuesdays and Thursdays during the winter months and Tuesdays during the summer, monthly potlucks September to April, crib tournament during the winter months, exercise program, games night with bingo and catered banquet at Christmas and June with entertainment. After our June banquet, we take a break until September.


They are small fleshy outgrowths, deformed in shape, which appear on the armpits, arms, neck, eyelids, and lower part of the breast, both in women and men.
Soak a cotton ball in some water and then pour at least 2-3 drops of tea tree oil on it. Rub the skin tag with the cotton ball in circular motions and really gently. Repeat on a daily basis for a week.
Just soak a cotton ball in apple cider vinegar and apply it directly over the skin tag. Repeat daily for a month.
Apply pineapple juice on the skin tag every day for a few times, and do not wash it off. Repeat this for ten days, and the skin tag will disappear. This method is also effective in the case of warts and moles.
Cut an onion, and leave it in a vessel with some salt during the night. In the morning, squeeze the juice, and apply it to the area for 10-12 days to remove the skin tag.
Prepare a paste by mixing a bit of castor oil with baking powder, and apply it on the skin tags for 2- 4 weeks.
Cut a small piece of banana peel and place the inner part of it over the area with the skin tag. Cover it with gauze, and leave it until the morning. Repeat until the skin tag is gone.
You should stick a piece of duct tape to the skin tag daily for 10-12 days to remove the skin tag.
Skin tags are painless and unobtrusive, so you can freely remove them at home with these simple remedies. Yet, you should never try surgical means or castration at home, in order to prevent infections and additional complications.
