Natalie Cole was the headliner for the opening night of the 59th Newport Jazz Festival tonight at the Newport Casino, but for my money (speaking figuratively—my tickets were free), it was her Uncle Freddy who stole the show.
At one point, Cole took over from Charlap at the piano in mid-song and continued his set, playing and singing. He finished with a "toe-tapper," the Billy Eckstine blues "Jelly Jelly," as raunchy as it needed to be.
Natalie began her set by following in the same vein of American songbook standards — often associated with her father, Nat "King" Cole, one of the greatest of American popular singers. So we got very respectable versions of "The Very Thought of You," "The Best Is Yet To Come" (for Nat's friend, "Uncle Frank" Sinatra), "Lush Life," "Smile." There was the obligatory video duet with her father of "Unforgettable," and a warm ovation from the crowd. But next to the plummy sound of her father in his prime, Natalie's voice sounded tart and thin. Her band helped her lift the tempo (and the mood) with cuts from her current Spanish-language hit album, Natalie Cole en Espanol. But it was when she went back to her 1975 pop hit "This Will Be" that Natalie sounded most convincing, most herself, punching out the high notes with extra loft from her two backup singers.
Cole had an impressive band, filled out with guitar, synth keyboards, acoustic piano, and percussion (from her son, Robbie Yancy). And she was a charming, assured performer. By the end of the night, the air had grown cool. Cole put on a jacket and urged the audience to dance to her pop hits and the Latin grooves. The air felt moist, but overhead above the grounds of the Newport Casino, the sky was mostly clear, and the stars were shining. Later this morning, the Newport Jazz Festival Presented by Natixis Global Asset management will continue at Fort Adams State Park. See you there. And look for the rest of my report in Monday's Boston Globe.

The Wayne Shorter Quartet's "Without a Net" (Blue Note) begins with a rumble — four notes repeated deep in the piano's bass register. Jazz fans will recognize the phrase as from Shorter's iconic composition "Orbits," from the 1967 Miles Davis release "Miles Smiles." On that record, the song is bright, fast, and fleet. But here Danilo Pérez's piano introduction is dark, ominous. Bassist John Patitucci joins Pérez, then Shorter enters on soprano sax, offering the tune's second phrase. Before long, the band (with drummer Brian Blade) is off on a lyrical improvisation, the darkness having cleared, that first phrase a recurring reference point in a collective dream.
Shorter has led the band for 12 years now, and some would argue that — in a legendary career of pathbreaking writing and playing — it represents the height of his achievements. Next Saturday the quartet will be one of the headliners at the Newport Jazz Festival… to read more, click here.

Nevertheless, you are being hit with a mountain of writing assignments that are almost impossible to do. Grades are extremely important and you want to be able to devote time to more serious homework projects. This may mean farming out essays to somebody else.

Subject oriented websites. If you want an essay written on a particular subject you want to investigate those web platforms which specialize in the area of study. You can get not only be reasonably priced essay written, but by a person who is expert in the subject.
Freelance Job Boards. You can find a writer at a reasonable cost on one of these job boards. You simply post a need and wait for proposals come in.

You should make sure the confidentiality is guaranteed and that there is a money back guarantee if you're not satisfied with work.

Q: How to change the color of the short version of the acronym in the list of acronym I use the Acronym package. In the printed list of acronym (usually put at the beginning of the document) there is the short version of the acronym (in bold font) and after the full name of the acronym (in normal font).
I want to change the color of the short version of each acronym to blue (for example) and keep the color of the full name of the acronym in black.
How to do it ?

A: With your current settings, the List of Acronyms is typeset using a description environment, so you can change \descriptionlabel for the acronym environment using, for example:

If you were using the optional argument for acronym with a value different than 1, then one simply would have to change \bflabel
\def\bflabel#1{{\textbf{\textsf{\color{blue}#1}}\hfill}}

A: The accepted answer would not work for me. Instead, the following would do the desired job of coloring the acronym's shorthands in their listing:
\AtBeginEnvironment{acronym}{%
  \renewcommand*{\aclabelfont}[1]{\textbf{\acsfont{\color{blue}#1}}}}

This command modifies the command \aclabelfont which is used to display the shorthands.
This example shows how to use the code above:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\usepackage{etoolbox}
\usepackage[printonlyused]{acronym}

\AtBeginEnvironment{acronym}{%
  \renewcommand*{\aclabelfont}[1]{\textbf{\acsfont{\color{blue}#1}}}}

\section{List of Acronyms}
\begin{acronym}
  \acro{ML}{Machine Learning}
  \acro{NN}{Neural Networks}
  \acro{SE}{Something Else}
\end{acronym}

\section{A Section with Acronyms}
This section uses the acronyms \ac{ML} and \ac{NN}. Notice how only the colors of the acronym shorthands in the list of acronyms changes. The acronyms' color in the text does not change.

The authors John Mullins and Randy Komisar explain in Getting to Plan B, new businesses are fraught with uncertainty. To succeed, you must change the plan in real time as the inevitable challenges arise. In fact, studies show that entrepreneurs who stick slavishly to their Plan A stand a greater chance of failing-and that many successful businesses barely resemble their founders' original idea.
The book provides a rigorous process for stress testing your Plan A and determining how to alter it so your business makes money, solves customers' needs, and endures.

Viewpoint yearbook staff celebrates the end of the year with a Wrap Party April 23, 2014
April 23, 2014 / Staff Fun
Viewpoint yearbook staff celebrates the end of the year with a Wrap Party
Written by Evan Blackwell, CJE
It's that time of year again! The end of the school year is in sight for many schools and yearbook staffs are finishing and starting to plan for next year.
They're also starting to celebrate a job well done!
The yearbook staff from Viewpoint School in Calabasas, Calif., recently shared all the fun they had at their "Wrap Party" with the Yearbooks Blog.
According to adviser Kristina Jenik, the whole Viewpoint staff went bowling to celebrate.
The group even gained a new yearbook mascot, which one of the staffers won from a vending machine.
Jenik said it was a fun afternoon, and a great way to commemorate all of the staff's hard work this year.
How has your staff celebrated all the hard work put in this year?

When was the relocatable object module invented?
During the time when programming was done in machine codes, there was no need for object modules; it just wouldn't make sense. People would write the whole program they needed to run in "zeroes and ones", put it on a computer medium, and introduce it into the computer.
It is natural to assume that when assembly languages started to appear, their initial functionality was only to provide the ability to write machine code using opcode mnemonics and symbolic addresses to facilitate the familiar development process.
The notion of separate compilation which would require linking, allow libraries of pre-compiled modules, and necessitate a binary format combining relocatable code and a table of external symbols would likely come somewhat later, but, one would think, sometime between the first assembler (SOAP for IBM 650, 1955) and the prominently mentioned IBM/360 linkage editor (1964).
Unfortunately, none of the referred wiki pages focuses on that aspect of the history. When was the first relocatable object file format invented, then, and by what company, if not IBM?

AFAIK, Grace Hopper invented the linking loader in 1951 for the Univac. Though the idea was very much entwined with the idea of a compiler, using a more natural way to express programs. And the necessity of relocation depends a lot on the underlying CPU: An ISA featuring relative addressing doesn't need it, and neither does an ISA geared at High Level Languages like the Burroughs B5000 (1961). – dirkt Mar 31 '17 at 4:52
@dirkt Thank you, but I think that's giving her too much credit. A program was specified as a sequence of subroutines and arguments looks more like threaded code to me. I don't see why the article compares a converter of that code to the machine code with a loader or a linker. No mention of object files either. "Relocatable" doesn't mean "needing relocation information", it means "capable of being relocated". If it comes naturally with the ISA, all the better. – Leo B. Mar 31 '17 at 6:39
Even if you enter your program into the computer directly as binary, there would still be a notion of "loaders" and "modules". Entering a program via console switches is time-consuming, which means you will want to use a "loader" to load/save sections of memory to cards, tapes, or disks. Once you have a loader, you will quickly identify common routines that you will want to load separately from your program (e.g. library code), which introduces the idea of "modules". It then becomes natural to want your libraries to be relocatable (which requires a more sophisticated "linking loader"). – Ken Gober Mar 31 '17 at 13:20
Grace Hopper invented a kind of linking loader in 1951 for the Univac, as part of the A-0 "compiler" (not a compiler like we understand it today).
One must keep in mind that memory was extremely limited on those very early computers, so what today would be an object module with many routines was equivalent to handling a single subroutine at that time. Also, the result of a linked program couldn't be stored in memory (again because there was not enough of it), so it would be stored on tape in a first pass, and then this tape would be executed in a second pass.
In the paper Automatic Coding for Digital Computers, Grace Hopper describes it this way:
Compiling routines [i.e., a linker/loader in modern terms], which also read a pseudo-code, but which withdraw subroutines from a library and operate upon them, finally linking the pieces together to deliver, as output, a complete specific program for future running: [For example] UNIVAC A-compilers, BIOR, and the NYU Compiler System.
So just like a relocatable object module loader would operate on an executable and read in a pre-compiled modules from a library, resolve relocations and load the whole thing into memory, Grace Hopper's compiling routines would take a pre-compiled subroutine in a specific format, make changes to it (e.g. substitute fixed parameters for formal arguments if apropriate, and probably also "call/return" jumps similar to the relocation), and then "compile" (arrange) the modified subroutines together with the main program.
A similar idea seems to have appeared even a bit earlier, in David Wheeler's Programme Organization and Initial Orders for the EDSAC (1950), but I can't find an accessible version of that paper.
I wouldn't say that the development of the idea of a linker preceeded symbolic coding. There's a fascinating collection of sessions presented at the MIT Summer Session 1954 called Advanced Coding Techniques. Among other things it contains a bit more details about the A-2 "linker" (p.30), and various forms of "Automatic Coding Systems" (p. 55) like the IBM 701 Speedcoding System (a sort of interpreted, more complex ISA) by John Backus (p. 41).
But earlier on in the collection, it becomes quite clear that various forms of symbolic coding were already in widespread use, and practice was far removed from "zeroes and ones".
Page 7 (Whirlwind I was designed 1947):
Mnemonic coding: it is convenient for humans to use suggestive letter pairs or triples to denote the operation sections of instructions, or to identify subroutines. Machines usually ultimately require a digital representation. This is a simple change of type 1b. Whirlwind I has always performed this change on the operation sections of instructions.
Identification of words: the control unit of a machine can operate on words only if it is given the absolute addrssses. Humans find it more convenient when coding to use relative or symbolic addresses. The necessary change is of type 2 and can be performed by the machine, usually before execution of the routine.
Representation of numbers: these may originate as, say, .023, 47.10^-5, or 7/45. The conversion to the standard machine form can be performed by the machine, though the routine required to do this is often lengthy. Type 1b.
And page 21:
Stanley Gill described a technique used on the Illiac which makes it unnecessary to list constants separately and refer to them in the program; instead, the constants may be written directly in the instruction which use them; thus, instead of writing
ccf al
al, +123
one might write simply
ccf +123
Donn Combelic gave, as an example of mnemonic coding, the way in which input and output editing is requested in the M.I.T. Comprehensive System. Three letters specify respectively the medium, whether input or output, and the notational form; this may be followed by a sample number.
There's also a webpage which claims that the "Initial Orders" system I mentioned above should be called the first assembler. That would have been 1951, way before SOAP.
And here is Grace Hopper talking about how subroutines were "invented" by borrowing notebooks during her work on the Aiken Mark 1 in World War 2, and she already hints at the necessity of "relocating" them ("when you integrate a piece of code into another program, you frequently have to add addresses, and programmers can't add").
dirktdirkt
The development of the idea was very gradual, then, and effectively pre-dates symbolic coding. That's interesting. – Leo B. Mar 31 '17 at 22:13
If "Initial Orders" is the first assembler, so close in time to the first subroutine library, then a theoretical question still remains: is it symbolic coding that brings about the idea of modularity, or an implementation of a linker using numerical references to subroutines provides groundwork for symbolic coding? – Leo B. Apr 1 '17 at 22:18
I really suggest you have a look at the MIT Summer Session Paper. The impression I get from it is that a lot of ideas were floating around and developing gradually, there was never really a phase where people actually coded in "zero and ones" only, but always used some kind of (human-made) translation from a more human-friendly representation, and the question really was "how can we use the computer itself to make that easier?". – dirkt Apr 2 '17 at 6:26

The question you have now is: how do you choose a heating installation, repair and maintenance company that is competent and professional? The following are 6 tips for choosing the right heating contractor in Summit, Illinois.
When trying to choose a heating service, it's important that you get a feel for your prospective company's reputation. In most cases, a company with a good reputation will do good work. After all, past customers are probably not going to say nice things about a company that did a poor job for them.
To get a feel for a company's reputation, you should take a look at some review sites. Google, Facebook, Yelp, and other such sites will usually have reviews on the company you're thinking about using.
Do you want to be held accountable for incidental damage that might occur on your property by a heating contractor? If not, it's wise to make sure that the company you hire has insurance.
At a minimum, heating companies should have two types of insurance: workers' compensation insurance and general liability insurance. These insurances will cover damages to both property and employees.
In the State of Illinois, it is not necessary for HVAC companies to obtain state HVAC licenses. However, in the village of Summit, Illinois, it is required that all contractors have a contractor's license. These businesses will also need to be officially registered with the village.
You should not hire a company that is not certified. Choosing an unlicensed and uncertified company will leave you susceptible to potential negligence and incompetence.
While an inexperienced HVAC technician might be capable of installing, repairing, and maintaining heating systems, you probably don't want to be the one to test his or her abilities. Instead, it's wise to hire an HVAC technician with plenty of experience on his or her side.
In general, you should look to hire a company that's been in business for 4 or more years. A company that has made it this long will have demonstrated competency on a consistent basis.
If you're having a new furnace or boiler installed, or if you're having repairs done on your existing furnace or boiler, it's best to ensure that you're getting guaranteed work. You don't want to have to pay for a service that wasn't done correctly.
While most parts come with manufacturer's warranties, a part is only as good as the person who's installing it. You'll want to make sure that the company you work with provides guarantees on labor, so you won't have to pay twice for things installed incorrectly.
One last thing you should do when choosing a heating company is to ask for an estimate of the work to be done. This is the best way to ensure that you have the funds necessary to pay your bill.
If you don't ask for an estimate, you could end up with a surprisingly large bill somewhere down the line.

The English Indices of Deprivation provide a relative measure of deprivation at small area level across England. Areas are ranked from least deprived to most deprived on seven different dimensions of deprivation and an overall composite measure of multiple deprivation. Most of the data underlying the 2010 indices are for the year 2008.
The indices have been constructed by the Social Disadvantage Research Centre at the University of Oxford for the Department for Communities and Local Government. All figures can only be reproduced if the source (Department for Communities and Local Government, Indices of Deprivation 2010) is fully acknowledged.
The domains used in the Indices of Deprivation 2010 are: income deprivation; employment deprivation; health deprivation and disability; education deprivation; crime deprivation; barriers to housing and services deprivation; and living environment deprivation. Each of these domains has its own scores and ranks, allowing users to focus on specific aspects of deprivation.
Because the indices give a relative measure, they can tell you if one area is more deprived than another but not by how much. For example, if an area has a rank of 40 it is not half as deprived as a place with a rank of 20.
The Index of Multiple Deprivation was constructed by combining scores from the seven domains. When comparing areas, a higher deprivation score indicates a higher proportion of people living there who are classed as deprived. But as for ranks, deprivation scores can only tell you if one area is more deprived than another, but not by how much.
This dataset was created from a spreadsheet provided by the Department of Communities and Local Government, which can be downloaded here.
The method for calculating the IMD score and underlying indicators is detailed in the report 'The English Indices of Deprivation 2010: Technical Report'.
The data is represented here as Linked Data, using the Data Cube ontology.

Portland's Galleria mall gets a makeover
Olds, Wortman & King department store
Portland's famous mall got a huge makeover and just celebrated it with a ribbon-cutting ceremony.
No, not THAT Mall, the other one: The Galleria (now called Galleria).
A quick bit of history. Built in 1910 and originally known as the Olds, Wortman & King department store, in the 1970s The Bill Naito Company repositioned the building in 1976 and renamed it the Galleria Mall.
It thrived through the 80s and early 90s but with the sparkling new Pioneer Place it saw traffic plummet. In 2018, Unico Properties LLC purchased Galleria. The acquisition was part of a joint venture partnership with Partners Group, which invested in Galleria on behalf of its clients. In 2021, Partners Group and Unico invested approximately $20 million to fully renovate the historic landmark, delivering state-of-the-art amenities and creative office space to the heart of downtown. That same year, Unico secured a new, 42,000-square-foot, 15-year lease for SERA Architects, Inc., a multi-disciplinary architecture, interior, and urban design firm committed to sustainable placemaking, at Galleria.
"We preserved the past while revitalizing this historic landmark and we're honored to reveal a beautiful new building that creates a hub, with a modern and exceptional amenity package and reflects the epitome of sustainability and decarbonization, in this prime area of downtown," said Charlie Floberg, Unico Properties Director, Market Leader.
Here are some impressive factoids for the building (and energy efficiency!) nerds:
Completely new mechanical systems (HVAC, electrical and plumbing, fire panel) to maximize energy efficiency – the remodel was done under the Path to Net Zero standards which is an extraordinary step, especially in a building that's more than 100 years old. It's a standard above current energy code. This historic building is meeting Energy Trust of Oregon's net-zero standards and is targeting LEED Gold certification, with the possibility of getting higher.
All interior finishes removed – raw shell for office users to maximize for their visioning of space.
Infilled the atrium to maximize floor area.
Full modernization of the elevators in 2023.
New lobby with an homage to the historical fabric of the building – respecting Galleria's history and respecting its place on the National Register of Historic Places – reused the marble floor where possible.
Dedicated and secure bike storage; full fitness center and shower facilities; common conference room.
Modernization of the parking garage – new automated equipment.
High-efficiency lighting throughout.
Galleria is now fully electrified and is pursuing LEED Gold certification, with the possibility of getting higher. Galleria is not only an example of decarbonization, but it is also a building that prioritizes health and wellness for its inhabitants. Galleria is also targeting Fitwel certification, which is expected in 2023.
My last memory of the space was in 2008 when the ground floor atrium offered tables and chairs and was a great place to bring over food from the (now-gone) food carts. As I sat down to eat I grabbed my pho from the lid and the container dropped to the floor spilling hot pho all over the place. Nice one, dude. What's your memory of the place?

3 memories stand out re: Galleria
-Mom taking me to the basement of Olds & King when I was a kid.
-My best college friend coming out (I was first person he told) while having drinks at – was it Pier 101? late '70s.
-Early '80s: parallel parked a large econoline van while moving so I could run up & get a "really good cup" of coffee at Coffee Ritz. Early '80s. My family made fun of me for years for that one!
D.Boz says:
Glen York says:
I have a very vivid memory of visiting Santa Claus around 1958 when I was about 6 years old. He sat in a "holiday wonderland" in a corner window of the store. People lined up on the sidewalk to go through an entrance that was created through the window. It was magical to me. I went by the corner a few weeks after Christmas and the the magic had had been replaced by a clothing display.
Worked at chrystal ship records in 1976..it was fun..
Brian Libby says:
To me this building was all about its atrium, and it was a terrible shame that Target filled it in. Hard to truly appreciate any renovation that doesn't bring it back, and yet I know that's unrealistic.

It is often very fantastic and packed with a lot of fun for me and my office mates to search your web site the equivalent of three times every week to study the fresh items you will have. And lastly, we're always fulfilled with all the remarkable solutions served by you. Selected 1 ideas in this article are in reality the very best we've ever had.
Throughout this grand pattern of things you'll get a B- with regard to effort and hard work. Where exactly you actually lost me was on the particulars. As people say, the devil is in the details... And that could not be more accurate in this article. Having said that, allow me say to you just what exactly did work. Your writing is actually rather persuasive and this is most likely the reason why I am making an effort in order to comment. I do not really make it a regular habit of doing that. Second, whilst I can notice the leaps in logic you make, I am not necessarily convinced of exactly how you appear to unite your ideas which help to make your final result. For now I shall subscribe to your point but trust in the near future you actually link your dots better.
Thanks so much for giving everyone an extremely breathtaking opportunity to read from here. It can be so nice plus jam-packed with a great time for me personally and my office colleagues to search your web site more than thrice weekly to learn the fresh stuff you will have. And lastly, I'm so usually contented with your fabulous principles you give. Some 3 areas in this article are absolutely the most impressive I have ever had.

Q: SQL Server variable columns name? I am wondering why I cannot use variable column name like that:
declare @a as varchar;
set @a='TEST'

select @a from x;

Thank you

A: Because it is not allowed.
Insted of this you could use dynamic sql query:
declare @a as varchar;
set @a='TEST'
exec ('select ' + @a + ' from x')

A: Because the column names are resolved at compile time not at run time for the SQL statement.

A: use sp_executesql for this
Example
SET @SQLString = N'SELECT *
    FROM table1
    WHERE timet = @time and items in (@item)';

DECLARE @SQLString nvarchar(500);
DECLARE @ParmDefinition nvarchar(500);

SET @ParmDefinition = N'@time timestamp,
    @item varchar(max) ';

EXECUTE sp_executesql
    @SQLString
    ,@ParmDefinition
    ,@time = '2010-04-26 17:15:05.667'
    ,@item = '''Item1'',''Item2'',''Item3'',''Item4'''
    ;

A: If there are not too many columns to chose, how about a CASE WHEN statement?
DECLARE @ColName VARCHAR(50) = 'Test1'

SELECT [Foo], [Bar],
CASE
  WHEN @ColName = 'Test1' THEN [Test1]
  WHEN @ColName = 'Test2' THEN [Test2]
  WHEN @ColName = 'Test3' THEN [Test3]
  WHEN @ColName = 'Test4' THEN [Test4]
  ELSE [TestDefault]
END [TestResult]
FROM [TableName];

This avoids using any EXEC.

A: You can't do it because SQL is compiled before it knows what the value of @a is (I'm assuming in reality you would want @a to be some parameter and not hard coded like in your example).
Instead you can do this:
declare @a as varchar;
set @a='TEST'

declare @sql nvarchar(max)
set @sql = 'select [' + replace(@a, '''', '''''') + '] from x'

exec sp_executesql @sql

But be careful, this is a security vulnerability (sql-injection attacks) so shouldn't be done if you can't trust or well clean @a.


Hoover Institution fellow Thomas Sowell discusses poverty around the world and in the United States. Poverty in America, he says, compared to the rest of the world, is not severe. Many poor people in poverty in the United States have one or two cars, central heating, and cell phones. The real problem for the poor is the destruction of the family, which Sowell argues dramatically increased once welfare policies were introduced in the 1960s.


Many Haitians have demonstrated against the Trump administration's cut-off of TPS. Now a Federal judge has effectively delayed the departure of Haitians holding TPS for at least six months.
U.S. District Judge Edward Chen has again ruled in favor of the nine plaintiffs in a Federal lawsuit charging that the Trump administration's termination of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) is racist, illegal, and inhumane. The decision all but guarantees that some 50,000 Haitians living and working in the U.S. under TPS will not have to leave the country by Jul. 22, 2019 (as the TPS termination order dictates), but can stay at least until January, or possibly September, 2020.
The extension also applies to some 198,000 other TPS holders from El Salvador, Nicaragua, and Sudan.
In a press release, the Institute for Justice and Democracy in Haiti (IJDH) explained that "Haitians with TPS who didn't re-register for it in 2017 or 2018 out of fear, confusion, or another good reason can and should seek to re-register now" because the U.S. government "has agreed to give such applications 'presumptive weight' as being filed late for good cause – meaning they should be granted and then entitled to the TPS extensions" until 2020.
The decision all but guarantees that some 50,000 Haitians living and working in the U.S. under TPS will not have to leave the country until January, or possibly September, 2020.
The U.S. government has appealed Judge Chen's order to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, but it has agreed, while the court's order is in effect, to certain important measures including automatic nine month extensions, starting in April 2019, unless the Appeals Court rules in their favor. But it is almost certain that no Appeals Court ruling will be made before April 2019.
Furthermore, the IJDH explains, "TPS work and legal status will be automatic for those registered" and there will be "no need to pay for employment authorization cards or further registration." TPS holders "can rely on their existing (to-be-expired) EAD [Employment Authorization Document] or TPS approval notice, as well as the Federal Register Notice, as valid authorization to work or as proof of legal status in the United States.
"They do not need to pay any further money to the U.S. government and should not need to pay for additional legal assistance either," the IJDH adds.
Even if Chen's decision is overruled by the Appeals Court, the U.S. government has agreed to at least six months of additional protection. "In the event the preliminary injunction is reversed and that reversal becomes final, DHS will allow for an orderly transition period," the government states.
In other words, the IJDH explains, "the earliest that TPS holders from [Haiti, El Salvador, Nicaragua, and Sudan] could lose their legal status is about six months after the appeals court's decision," which likely will not come until the middle of 2019. And whatever the Appeals Court's ruling, it will surely be appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court.
The case has been brought in the Northern District of California, and the plaintiffs are from Haiti, El Salvador, and Sudan, representing diverse organizations fighting to defend TPS, including the National TPS Alliance, CARECEN-Los Angeles, the International Union of Painters and Allied Trades (IUPAT), UNITE-HERE, and African Communities Together. They are represented by the ACLU of Southern California, the National Day Laborer Organizing Network, and Sidley Austin LLP.


KidsEBookBestsellers.com: Elmo Loves You! Nook Readers Love Elmo!
Elmo Loves You! Nook Readers Love Elmo!
For three weeks, Elmo Loves You! by Sarah Albee has been in the top ten in the Kids' section of Barnes and Noble's Nook store. Sarah's here to tell us all about her journey with Elmo into e-publishing.
Tell us a bit about the book, Sarah.
ELMO LOVES YOU began as a Little Golden Book. I wrote it--cough--sixteen years ago, when I was an editor on staff at Sesame Street. I don't think anyone realized that it would go on to sell a gajillion copies, and now it has a new audience in its ebook format. It's a very gentle, rhyming story about love. "Bert loves pigeons, and pigeons love to coo./Can you guess who Elmo loves? Elmo loves you!" Because I wrote it while on staff, I do not make royalties on it, but that's OK. I loved working at Sesame Street, and I am a huge Elmo fan. He deserves his fame, and Sesame Street gave me the opportunity to publish my first books.
So how did you first get published?
I began my writing career as a very junior editor on staff at Children's Television Workshop (Sesame Street). After I had our second child, our family moved from New York City to Connecticut, and I became a full-time freelance writer. I still love working with Sesame Street, but I also love writing other kinds of books--especially, these days, nonfiction books for 8 - 12 year olds. My latest book is called Poop Happened! A History of the World from the Bottom Up.
I am a big fan of epublishing, which I think is a wonderful resource for certain books and certain times. I remember when I lived in Cairo, Egypt, just after college, I was desperate for English-language books and read anything I could get my hands on. It would have been so fantastic to have been able to download books to an ereader! My 16 year old daughter is spending the year in Spain, and she downloads books constantly. As a mother, I know I would have loved to have the option to give my kids ebooks when they were very young, for travelling, car rides, etc.
I don't think epublishing will replace traditional children's books, however; the look and feel of an actual picture book is something quite wonderful that I don't think will go away. But I think the potential for using the technology for middle-grade books, particularly nonfiction, is very exciting. I cannot WAIT for ebooks to replace middle schoolers' textbooks. That can't happen soon enough. My son's backpack weighs a ton.
I have a website (sarahalbeebooks.com) that includes a blog, where I discuss fun/funky/disgusting/interesting-to-kids historical events. But Elmo doesn't need any marketing!
Definitely helps. Anything that gets kids to read is positive. I have always been proud to write books that are inexpensive; I know how strapped many young families are in this economy, and I'm proud that my books are affordable, and are good! And ebooks are wonderfully affordable.
Check this week's Kids' E-book Bestseller List for the latest Top Tens as of Saturday AM.

5 Delicious Song Teas You Need..
Searching For The Dark Art Of ..
Sothea Thang and Daniel Mattes sat down with me at one of the two-floor cafe's upstairs tables recently. They're two of TINI's four owners, and responsible for the majority of the day-to-day operations of the space (in addition to being its de facto visionaries). Their business partners mostly contribute to the financial side, while Thang and Mattes have the first and final say on menu and design.
Thang's been working as a freelance architect in Phnom Penh for years. After graduating from a local university, he started to renovate buildings, taking dilapidated apartments and houses and not so much remaking them as reacting to what they already were, then building them out to what he imagined they might be. His work on the structure of TINI, which had a long stint as an overpriced bamboo-themed bar before the pair found it, was informed by the pre-existing wood rafters and the light filtering through its opaque-with-grime floor-to-ceiling windows. When he saw it, something about the space just felt right. His paintings and sculptures, which he creates in the time he's not designing buildings or running a business, hang from the walls and peer out from pedestals.
Mattes first came to Phnom Penh a few years ago as an intern with an NGO; about a year after that initial seven-month stint ended, he was back in the city working with the group full-time. His organization monitors court proceedings in post-conflict societies, making sure trials like those conducted by the UN of former Khmer Rouge officials are held to international standards. At 25, the Stanford and London School of Economics graduate had never worked in coffee, let alone owned a business, before TINI. When I ask about the specific challenges of running a shop in Phnom Penh, he admits the first few months were a learning process, and points primarily to a problem with their business plan.
According to Mattes, the reigning cafes in Phnom Penh are large places, where more seats than you could imagine filling up are nonetheless always full. The coffee takeaway business in the city is booming, too, with orders being filled in thin plastic cups that are then bagged in still more plastic (before being bagged in still more plastic) before being whisked into the street, where delivery guys hang them from their moto handlebars before driving off for delivery.
TINI is not like this. In fact, it isn't really even a coffee shop.
The actual building is set in the facade of an otherwise relatively residential side street roughly a block away from Phnom Penh's open-air Russian Market, a few square blocks of stalls selling mostly knockoff name brands of clothing and knickknacks, named for the community of Russian expats who lived in the area in the 1980s. Now as then, the neighborhood surrounding the Russian Market is known for being a kind of expat enclave, where rents are higher and many apartment buildings come replete with Western fixtures (like stoves and free-standing showers).
Accordingly, a host of restaurants, bars, and cafes catering primarily to expats have sprung up in the area over the past few years. But Mattes insists TINI isn't meant to be only for Westerners—and it isn't. During my first visit, the entire first floor was occupied by a group of Snapchatting Cambodian kids, with large piles of textbooks featuring as prominently in their pictures as their cups of coffee and bowls of ice cream—a few flavors of which TINI offers everyday alongside an extensive menu of house-made cakes and cookies. The next time I was in, the script had flipped, and a vaguely European-looking couple was meeting over espressos.
As for the coffee, TINI gets its beans from nearby Feel Good Coffee, a roaster/cafe about a mile to the north. The espresso drinks are made with a 50-50 blend of Vietnamese and Lao coffees, roasted just past medium to suit Mattes' taste for Italian-style drinks. They're also trying out a few other roasters from around the region, including Rumblefish Specialty Roasters in Kampot and Akha Ama Coffee beans from Maejantai, roasted in Chiang Mai, Thailand.
Still, there are certain things on TINI's menu, like cocktails featuring Cambodian palm-sugar syrup (when the cafe transitions into a bar) or "Coffee Jelly," that I can't imagine anywhere else. The latter is a gelatin made from coffee and sugar that's blended with ice and served with frothed milk and syrup, the result being sort of like an iced cappuccino getting mugged by a boba tea.
It's not my drink of choice, and seems aimed more toward the younger crowd, but that's okay. TINI wasn't designed to be the home of the Coffee Jelly, or a place to have street food ordered into (though you can), or even necessarily a place to just grab a coffee. It's not any of those things specifically. Following on from Mattes's intentions, and its name, it's a welcoming place that is just here. And in a busy capital city, that's plenty.
TINI is located at 57, Street 450, Toul Tom Poung 1, Phnom Penh. Follow them on Facebook and Instagram.


The best french toast recipe with warm undertones of vanilla, cinnamon and a hint of nutmeg, fluffy, browned and toasted with soft creamy custard-like insides. This simple recipe is perfect for breakfast, brunch or dessert. My easy homemade french toast is always fluffy and never eggy or soggy. This is the technique that I use to get foolproof golden and tasty toasted french toast every time.
French toast is a classic simple but delicious breakfast that's not complicated or expensive to make. When I was a kid I loved to wake up to the smell of bacon, eggs and easy french toast. Those were the good ole days.
No fruit or powdered sugar on mine though. I like it plain with just a bit of butter and syrup.I know that some people love to dress up theirs up which is perfectly fine. My teen always requests me to make strawberry french toast for him. I will be posting that recipe in the future. These days, I still prefer mine simple, butter and syrup paired with a cold glass of tequila sunrise mocktail and my favorite Crispy tater tot egg and sausage casserole and I'm happily satisfied.
My mom stopped by as I was writing this post and she said, "mmm you gonna make me go home and make that"! Haha. When she got home she asked me for the recipe. She said they were delicious and that she didn't even need syrup. This french toast is seasoned well so you won't need syrup! Which makes it great recipe for on the run french toast sticks.
Best bread for french toast?
I use regular sandwich bread (not stale) from the supermarket aisle for this recipe. You can use brioche or challah, or even Texas toast if you like, but you may need to add more batter for brioche french toast or any type of thicker bread. I sometimes use white bread and sometimes I use wheat bread. Feel free to use your choice of white or wheat bread. To be honest, I love wheat bread because I think it's more flavorful than white bread.
It's best to use a full-fat milk. If you want a richer more luxurious custard mixture, you can add a bit of heavy whipping cream or half and half. No skim milk allowed. This french toast recipe is clearly not diet food.
Everyone has had their share of eggy french toast at one point or maybe even several points in their lives. Mine used to be egg ALL THE TIME! No Bueno. But with a bit of research I found out that the egg taste comes from the egg white. If you eliminate the egg white and only use egg yolks, you will never have eggy tasting eggs again. Egg yolks will also make your batter richer in flavor too.
French toast recipes with flour works so well! I got that tip from Pinterest. Adding flour to the french toast batter will do a couple things. First, it makes the french toast nice and fluffy. Secondly, it helps to achieve a nice soft-crisp and toasted bread. So delicious!
I use a nonstick pan or griddle to make french toast and a billion other things. I totally love this griddle. So easy to clean!
Okay, this is where you will have to really pay attention to your bread because if you don't, you may soak the bread too much which will make it soggy. If you are using regular supermarket aisle bread and it's fresh, you only need to dip the bread into the batter, dip then flip it immediately then dip again.
I always warm my milk in the microwave first, that way, I can easily blend the cinnamon, nutmeg, and flour without any clumps. I then add all the ingredients to my baking pan and then mix well until most of the clumps are gone. Don't worry if you aren't able to get all the clumps out.
For fresh regular white/wheat bread, quickly dip the bread into the french toast batter. Flip the bread and dip again quickly letting the excess batter drip back into the baking pan. If you are using a dryer stale bread, dip the bread in the batter and let the bread soak for a couple seconds then flip and dip and soak for a couple more seconds. As I stated earlier, please do not let the bread soak for too long because it will either fall apart or still end up pretty soggy despite the flour.
Set your oven to warm. Heat butter in a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Transfer the soaked bread to skillet and cook 3- 4 minutes or until toasted and browned. Flip and cook the other side 3 to 4 minutes longer. Transfer best french toast to the baking sheet and place it into the warm oven until you are ready to serve it.
Serve this french toast with berries and confection sugar or keep it simple and use butter and your choice of syrup. Bacon and eggs are a must!

This is the technique that I use to get foolproof golden toasted french toast every time.
To make the french toast. To a large bowl add the sugar and eggs and whisk well until combined. Add the melted butter, warmed milk and the rest of the ingredients. Mix well until most of the clumps from the cinnamon and flour clumps are gone. The warmed milk will help prevent the flour and cinnamon from clumping.
Set the oven to warm. In a nonstick skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of butter. Dip the bread into the custard mixture*See notes. Place the bread in the hot skillet. Cook each side for about 3-4 minutes or until golden and browned. Place french toast on baking sheet then place it in the oven to keep warm until the rest of the french toast is done.
Add your choice of fruit, powdered sugar or syrup. Serve this best french toast with bacon and eggs.
For fresh bread: place up to two slices of bread in the french toast batter and immediately flip it over. Flip the bread over and repeat the same steps.
For stale bread: place up to two slices of bread in the french toast batter and let it soak for a couple of seconds. Flip the bread over and repeat the same steps.
Do not let the bread sit in the mixture too long or it will fall apart or get too soggy.
This is the baking pan and griddle I used.

My kids had never tried french toast until a few weeks ago when I tried this recipe, and they LOVED it! I have picky eaters that rarely like the same thing so I'm so excited to find something they love! I was out of vanilla so tried almond extract (I know they are completely different) and it turned out really good. Thanks for the tips!
Yay! Mine are so picky too! I'm glad your kiddos like it! I bet the almond extract made it taste amazing. I'm going to try it next time! Thank you so much Alisha!
