This article does not attempt to provide a complete summary of all IETF activities in this area. It reflects the author's personal perspective on some current highlights.
Shortly after the internationalised e-mail and extensions (IEE) BoF that was reported in the IETF Journal, Volume 1, Issue 2, a new working group in the Applications Area was formed called E-mail Address Internationalisation, or EAI. The WG, chaired by Xiaodong Lee and Harald Alvestrand, has met three times at IETF meetings and has held one interim meeting, in Beijing.
This working group will address one basic approach to e-mail internationalisation. That approach is based on the use of an SMTP [Simple Mail Transfer Protocol] extension to enable both the use of UTF-8 [8-bit unicode transformation format] in envelope address local-parts and optionally in domain-parts and the use of UTF-8 in mail headers – both in address contexts and wherever encoded-words are permitted today. Its initial target will be a set of experimental RFCs that specify the details of this approach and provide the basis for generating and testing interoperable implementations. Its work will include examining whether "downgrading" – transforming an internationalised message to one that is compatible with unextended SMTP clients and servers and unextended MUA [mail user agent] – is feasible and appropriate and, if it is, specifying a way to do so. If it is not, the WG will evaluate whether the effort is worth taking forward. Other approaches may be considered by the formation of other working groups.
Presents an overview of, and the framework for, the approach described in the charter. This is a good one-stop reading if you want to quickly find out how all of this is supposed to work.
Describes possible scenarios that an EAI solution will have to deal with, defining what the acceptable behaviour for a technical solution would be and thus constraining the space of possible alternatives.
Describes an SMTP service extension that enables mail transmission agents (MTAs) to signalise to their clients EAI support.
Defines a representation – in UTF-8 – of certain mail header field bodies.
Defines mechanisms for backward compatibility, so that EAI mail can be transported even through non-EAI-aware MTAs. Downgrading is the generic term used for any kind of conversion mechanism employed for allowing this.
Illustrates issues with mailing lists that need to be considered and that are not listed in the scenarios document. Mailing lists are interesting environments inasmuch as mails are received by software and then reinjected into mail transport for users to receive, many of whom, without any a priori knowledge on the original sender's side, might or might not be users of EAI addresses.
Extends the Post Office Protocol version 3 (POP3) (RFC 2449) to support without encodings characters beyond ASCII in user names, mail addresses, and other message headers. This document also takes the opportunity to support localisation of protocol-level textual errors into different languages.
Extends the Internet Message Access Protocol version 4rev1 (IMAP) (RFC 3501) to support without encodings characters beyond ASCII in user names, mail addresses, and other message headers.
Unfortunately, there were disagreements in the room as well. There is still ongoing discussion about whether the introduction of a marker header field that would identify a message (in transit or not) as an EAI mail is really necessary. Also controversial was the issue of the appearance of raw UTF-8 in multipurpose Internet mail extension (MIME) headers (a usual situation when dealing with file names, for instance) and how to handle it. One possibility could be to downgrade it by means of RFC 2047 mechanisms when it's outside quotes and RFC 2231 mechanisms when it's inside quotes. Alternatively, it could be possible to deprecate RFC 2231 and use the RFC 2047 technique.
Regarding the running-code part of the proverbial saying, there's an implementation in Perl by the Taiwan Network Information Centre (TWNIC) based on sendmail together with Milter and Mimedefang. In parallel, the China Internet Network Information Centre (CNNIC) has developed an implementation based on qmail. The existence of two independent implementations has allowed for intercompatibility tests.
If you want to get involved, do it now, because the current plans of this hardworking group are to have all the documents ready before the next IETF meeting in Prague!

Interview: Maid's Andie MacDowell
by Charles Trapunski September 30, 2021
written by Charles Trapunski September 30, 2021
Because it's worth it to play the long game, Andie MacDowell of Maid didn't realize that we have been looking to speak with her over the past couple of years, as the world has gone through many changes but her star power has stayed constant. Whether it was in Paper Year, (alongside the also recently interviewed Hamish Linklater of Midnight Mass), or in Ready or Not, (alongside Mark O'Brien), or in the series Maid, as the mentally unstable Paula, MacDowell has starred in a trio of filmed in Canada projects that straddled the border of different genres quite successfully. That's not even to mention her outstanding work in Four Weddings and a Funeral (movie and show), Groundhog Day, and Magic Mike XXL. She was worth it because she jumped off of our in-depth question to give an incredible answer about what it meant for her to play the character of Paula, and her scene partners Margaret Qualley (her real-life daughter), and Nick Robinson (unrelated), both talked about how amazing it was working with MacDowell, who is currently shooting a new project in Wales.

fungicide fŭn´jəsīd˝, fŭng´gə– [key], any substance used to destroy fungi . Some fungi are extremely damaging to crops (see diseases of plants ), and others cause diseases in humans and other animals (see fungal infection ).
Surface fungicides, which keep harmful fungi from penetrating the tissues of a plant, include inorganic and organic compounds. Sulfur compounds, long used on plants, have been supplemented for some time by other chemicals, especially by compounds of copper, such as Bordeaux mixture . After 1945, organic salts of iron, zinc, and mercury were synthesized as fungicides. Most post-1965 fungicides are systemic, acting directly on fungal cells. Antifungal drugs, such as miconazole and terbinafine, are used for human fungal infections.

Four hospitals chosen for treatment of Ebola
by nadignewspapers@aol.com · October 24, 2014
Mayor Rahm Emanuel and the Chicago Department of Public Health announced Monday that four Chicago hospitals have agreed to form a network of resource centers that are preparing to provide care in the unlikely event of a patient being diagnosed with Ebola in Chicago.
Rush University Medical Center and the University of Chicago Medical Center for adult and pediatric patients, Northwestern Memorial Hospital for adult patients and Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago for pediatric patients agreed to serve in that capacity following a series of meetings with Emanuel and health department officials.
The city began working with local hospitals and providers to make the necessary preparations for what the department calls an unlikely scenario more than two months ago. Emanuel convened a meeting of cabinet members, public health officials and hospital leaders to discuss the benefits of identifying a network of providers that have made intensive preparations as part of a readiness effort, according to the department.
The department said that in the event that someone is suspected of having Ebola at a local health care provider or by first responders, it will work to ensure the patient is kept in isolation following Centers for Disease Control protocols, that blood samples are routed for immediate testing and that the patient is transferred, in isolation, to one of the four hospitals for care following guidelines and protocols from the CDC.
As part of the preparedness efforts, CDC infectious disease specialists are in Chicago this week conducting an audit for the hospitals to determine what updates or additional training could be implemented to further augment the hospital's abilities to serve these roles.
The health department reports that it has worked with other area hospitals and health care providers over the past several weeks, leading briefings to ensure CDC recommendations are implemented and that hospitals and health care providers are providing the necessary training to staff. The department says that it is providing guidance for health care providers preparing for possible scenarios and to facilitate sharing of hospital-specific protocols.
The department reports that it also has worked with the Chicago Department of Aviation and CDC to implement airport screenings for inbound passengers residing in or traveling from Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone, which are the nations hardest hit by Ebola. The new screening procedures were implemented at O'Hare International Airport as well as at Atlanta, Newark, New York City and Dulles airports.
"Even though the chances of an individual being diagnosed in Chicago are still extremely unlikely, we are doing everything we can to ensure our city is prepared to respond quickly and effectively," Emanuel said. "Chicago is home to world-class hospitals and providers, and I am grateful to these institutions for stepping up for our city and our nation."
"By creating a network of providers we are going above and beyond national guidelines to ensure that our city remains healthy and safe from infectious disease," department commissioner Dr. Bechara Choucair said.

The Alekhine Defense Contd by GM Magesh and GM Arun
GM thamizhan
Updated: Jan 2, 2010, 4:42 PM |
For anyone who follows professional chess at the top the level, it is obvious that the Alekhine defense is not a common choice at the Super GM level, and this is not without good reason. In many cases, White is able to get a reasonable space advantage over Black out of the opening. Today let us take a look how some of best players in the history of chess take on the Alekhine defense.
Our first game features the former world champion Garry Kasparov ruthlessly overpowering the English Grand Master Michael Adams.
Kasparov quite systematically dismantled Black's position into shambles. The middle game position that came out of this game could be a good example of what White should try to achieve out of this opening. A slightly better, yet thoroughly dominating position is very pleasant to play.
Our next game is from our current world champion Vishwanathan Anand taking on the wonderkind Magnus Carlsen. There is plenty of imaginative action involved when we hear these names and we cannot expect anything less in a blindfold game between these two champs.
Again a very simple and instructive game. White gained some simple advantage out of the opening and continued to put pressure on Black until Black eventually conceded.
Our last game today is between the current World Cup quarterfinalist Dmitry Jakovenko and the Chinese Grand Master Bu Xiangzhi.
This game started out just like the other games we saw today with a strong positional advantage out of the opening, but ended with a sharp attack on the kingside. We hope our readers enjoyed the games and benefited from it as much as we have while analyzing them.

Monarchs also may be seen in small butterfly gardens found in many Florida locales.
PUMPKINS AND MAZES
With Halloween coming on, it's the season for pumpkin patches and corn mazes.
You may not see the Great Pumpkin rising above these fields, but you can buy a pumpkin to carve at dozens of Florida locales. Most popular are those patches where guests can pick a pumpkin directly out of the field. However, at most patches the pumpkins are brought in and put in piles for customers to look over.
Along with pumpkin patches, many farms at this time of year have corn mazes. These are fields of tall corn interlaced with twisting paths, and guests have fun trying to find their way out of them, especially families and small children. Some farms also offer another happy October tradition, hay rides.
For a list of these sites in Florida, go to www.pumpkinpatchesandmore.org.
FANTASY FEST
You'll be hearing a lot about this colorful, bizarre and sometimes X-rated festival that puts Key West in a state of frenzy for 10 days every year in October.
This year the fest will take place Oct. 18-27 and its theme is "Super Heroes, Villains...and Beyond." Look for them at masquerade balls, costume contests, street fairs and parties. Festival climax comes with the grand parade on Oct. 26, with floats, bands, exotic marching groups and a lot of uninhibited exhibitionists. In past years, the latter have included folks wearing all sorts of outrageous costumes, include some wearing body paint ... and nothing else. The grand marshal will be Diane Nyad, riding on a float decorated to commemorate her marathon swim from Cuba to Key West. www.fantasyfest.com.
FREE AND FASCINATING
A week of free events awaits visitors to Florida's most famous birding refuge, the J.N. "Ding" Darling Wildlife Refuge on Sanibel Island during the 24th annual Ding Darling Days celebration Oct. 20-26. Each day will offer free activities, including live wildlife presentations, naturalist tours, beach walks, tram tours, nature crafts, touch tank, snacks and other doings. Muppeteer Jim Henson's daughter Heather will be back for a second year to perform with life-size puppets of endangered wildlife. www.dingdarlingsociety.org/dingdarlingdays.php.
• The Petanque America Open, to be held in Amelia Island Nov. 8-10, is expected to attract close to 300 players. The goal is to toss or roll hollow steel balls as close as possible to a small wooden target ball. Last year, the tourney brought together 256 players from 20 states and 11 countries. www.petanque-america-open.net.
• About 250,000 visitors are expected to flood downtown Mount Dora Oct. 26 and 27 for the 29th annual Mount Dora Craft Fair. More than 350 craftspeople will be on hand. www.mountdoracraftfair.com.
• Florida's stone crab season opens Oct. 15 and the Florida Keys will celebrate with the third annual Stone Crab Eating Contest in Marathon Oct. 19. Entry fee: $25.
• Busch Gardens has partnered with Tampa's International Plaza mall to create a new children's play area in the mall. The new area features animals such as hippos, a baby elephant, baby lions and an alligator as well as a train, safari truck and 13-foot Cheetah Hunt Tower.

Science Club is going strong at St. Charles!!
We live in an exciting time for scientists. Much scientific information has already been collected and new facts are being discovered daily. Yet each new discovery makes it evident that there is a storehouse of scientific knowledge waiting to be discovered. The after-school science club is grouped by grade levels and is a student interest-based science program that explores different concepts in science. The science club that is going on right now is an energy unit that focuses on electrical energy. We focus mainly on simple circuits that use a direct current. We also work with motors, fans, and lights for a hands-on experience on how we use electricity in our daily lives. For our culminating project, we explore alternative energy sources that utilize electrochemical reactions such as seen in the generating of electricity from a lemon.
The next science club session will encompass our Solar System, which is very fitting since NASA is launching its ICON NASA Satellite. Many students and their parents have already expressed interest in the next science club. We are looking forward to our next session.

The Hills yard took the race in 1980, 1999, 2001 and 2009
Since 1975 all winners have been aged 8 or younger
Since 1975 there have only been three winners aged 8 years-old

The average winning SP in the last 15 years is 13/1
4 of the last 8 winners came from NH yards
3 of the last 6 winners returned 10/1
Dr Marwan Koukash has owned 3 of the last 10 winners
As we head into May the focus switches to the flat with the first two English Classics – the 1,000 & 2,000 Guineas – at Newmarket, but we've also got the three-day Chester May Meeting and their feature race – THE CHESTER CUP.
The Chester Cup, run over 2m2f, is the feature contest of a cracking festival (10th, 11th, 12th May) and it's a race with plenty of trends history for us to use. It's always a great spectacle with 20+ horses rattling around the tight Chester turns, while it's a race the bookies have enjoyed in recent time with just four winning favourites since 1975.
Age - Other key trends to note are that 15 of the last 16 winners were aged 7 or younger – with only the 2016 winner, No Heretic going against that trend - while we've seen just three horses aged 8 (or older) take the race since 1975.
Recent form - Don't be too worried if your fancy heads here off the back of a poor recent run as 11 of the last 16 winners were unplaced last time out, while in terms of weight the key stat it's worth noting that 11 of the last 15 winners carried 9-2 or less.
Draw - Despite being run over 2m2f the draw plays a big part too – mainly due to Chester being one of the tightest of the flat tracks. Therefore, it's no real surprise that horses drawn low have held sway – meaning they can save ground and get good early positions in the race – 11 of the last 16 winners came from stall 7 or less.
Weight - Being a handicap then weight carried is another thing to note. In recent years we've seen 11 of the last 16 winners (69%) win the race so this have proven to be a decent cut-off mark. While since 1981 only 7 winners have won with more than 9-2 - but it is worth noting the 2017 winner - Montaly - carried 9-6.
Favourites - In short, the market leaders having a poor win record, do note that a fair few have placed though, with 8 of the last 16 favourites hitting the frame, which is usually the top 4 (if 16+ run). However, since 1975 we've seen just 4 market leaders actually win the race.
Top Owner - Look for anything owner Dr Marwan Koukash runs – he loves to win races at this meeting and in- particular this race. He's sure to be mobbed-handed in the contest, but don't be afraid to split stakes across all of his runners, especially those that fit some of the better key trends listed – he's won the race 3 times in the last 9 years.
Top Trainers - The stables more famed for their National Hunt runners have done well too recently, with Donald McCain training two of the last 7 winners, while the current champion National Hunt trainer – Nicky Henderson – sent out the 2016 winner – No Heretic. While in terms of the flat yards to note anything the Hills team send to post should be respected, while the Andrew Balding camp took the prize 12 months ago with Montaly. Richard Fahey landed the prize in 2007 and 2013, while although Charlie Hills is yet to win the race his father - Barry - had a fine record in the contest - winning it 4 times.
TQ VERDICT: With the Chester Cup moved to the Friday we've been building up to this 2m2 ½f race all week. As always, a big field line-up (17), so around these tight turns then plenty of luck will also be needed. We've also bundles of decent trends to apply to the race, which will hopefully whittle down the runners. The first thing to mention is that it's been a shocking race for favourite backers with Mamlook in 2010 the last market leader to take the pot, while since 1975 we've seen just 4 winning jollies. Things may well change between now and the race time but the Ian Williams yard, that won this in 2008, have Magic Circle, who has been very popular in the betting and certainly a contender to go off favourite. This 6 year-old has also recently been bought by Dr Marwan Koukash, who loves to win this race – he's landed 3 of the last 10 runnings. However, this horse could only manage fifth in the race 12 months ago and is off a 3lb higher mark this time. He's also returning from a 209 day break and with 11 of the last 16 winners having raced in the last 2 months this is also against him. On a plus, he's got a nice draw in 6, but since 1981 only 6 winners have carried more than 9-2 – he's got 9-3. 15 of the last 16 winners were aged 7 or younger so Silver Concorde (10) and Saigon City (8) have this against them. While with 12 of the last 16 aged 5, 6 or 7 then the 4 year-olds in the race – Jukebox Jury, Grandee and Time To Study also have a slight negative. Despite the favourites having a poor record in the race 10 of the last 16 winners still returned 10/1 or less in the betting – suggesting that punters are not too far off the mark in the race. 11 of the last 16 carried 9-2 or less and came from stall 7 or lower. So, taking the main weight, age and draw trends into account there are three that stand out – MY REWARD, STARGAZER and WATERSMEET. Stargazer looks set to go off the shortest of the trio but with the other two around 12/1 then there should be room to split stakes across all three if you wanted. The Philip Kirby-trained Stargazer has run two solid seconds of late and with just 8 career runs should have more to come. He was a fair sort for the Stoute yard before changing stables, while draw 4 and 9-1 in weight make his profile very appealing. The consistent My Reward is one of just two proven course winners at Chester and around this tricky track that is certainly a plus. Draw 1 is an ideal starting point for this Tim Easterby-trained 6 year-old and a recent third at Ripon should have blown away the winter cobwebs. The final pick – Watersmeet – was a close sixth in the race 12 months ago but gets in here off a 2lb lower mark. He's had a similar preparation with a busy winter so will head here fit and well, plus in stall 2 he's got a slightly better draw than last year (6). It's also worth pointing out that 12 months ago he had to carry 9-8 in weight but due to the 108-rated Nakeeta, who was 10th last year, running he's only got 9-1 this time. He led until late on in the race last year and only got swallowed up in the final furlong so the lighter weight looks to give him a much better chance of racing up with the pace and hopefully staying there this time. Of the rest, the Ryan Moore-ridden Who Dares Wins will be popular but draw 15 will make life very hard and he's another that ran in the race 12 months ago. He was fourth last year but is running off an 8lb higher mark this time. While FUN MAC has to be given a big mention as he was third last year and gets in off a pound lower mark. He did well to finish where he did from stall 13 that day so with a better draw (5) this time must have every chance of going well again too and looks a lively outsider – oh, don't worry too much about his horse's 181 day break as he 12 months ago he ran third off a 205 day absence.

Liverpool could battle it out with Borussia Dortmund for the signing of Borussia Monchengladbach winger Thorgan Hazard this summer.
Dortmund have been considered favourites for the Belgian, but now reports in Hazard's home country suggest Liverpool may edge them to it.
According to Nieuwsblad, Hazard would prefer a move to Dortmund, but Gladbach are unwilling to let him join a Bundesliga rival – making the Premier League his likeliest destination.
The younger brother of Chelsea star Eden has already been the subject of a £36 million from Dortmund, who could lose Jadon Sancho this summer, and Hazard is said to be attracted by the superior playing opportunities at the Westfalenstadion.
Hazard signed for Monchengladbach from Chelsea for just £6 million in 2015, and has also been linked with a move back to Stamford Bridge.

History by country
Sentinelles of Freedom
Ever since the Enlightenment, Europe and America have been united by a shared way of thinking and a common destiny, characterised, most notably, by the liberating intervention of the United States in the two world wars.
Yet these close links have been seriously weakened during the past several years. Surprisingly, the attacks of 11 September have further widened the nascent gap between the two sides of the Atlantic. From environmental issues to the Iraqi question, sources of conflict between Washington and the various European capitals have continued to grow, while misunderstandings between Americans and Europeans have multiplied, leading to ideological divorce.
Rather than lessening these differences and blaming them on a passing European aversion to the Bush administration's unilateralism, Laurent Cohen-Tanugi sees them as part of a more profound tendency, linked to developments that have occurred on both sides of the Atlantic and on the international stage. Europe and America are growing farther apart every day, due to factors such as the disappearance of the Soviet threat, the widening gap in military and strategic power between the U.S. and its NATO allies, Europe's growing sense of identity as it constructs its Union, and the rise of Islamic terrorism.
But such a separation is laden with danger for world stability and for the influence of the Western heritage. It is thus urgent to rebuild Atlantic solidarity on new foundations. These, which will not be easy to establish, should be interdependent. The new Europe should fully assume its responsibilities on the international stage. The new U.S. should seek greater integration in the international community. And both should be fully aware that they share the same great civilisation in an uncertain world.
Laurent Cohen-Tanugi is an eminent international lawyer. Besides being one of the top French experts on the United States, he is also a specialist on European unity, to which he is ardently committed. He is the author of several celebrated works, including Le Droit dans l'Etat, L'Europe en danger and Le nouvel ordre numérique.

Travel Guide: The Silk Road // Pakistan to China: Part 6
Part VI - Out of the Taklamakan Desert and through the village oases of the northern Silk Road, then back to Kashgar
Day eleven | 14 September | Taklamakan to Korla
Today involved a great deal of sleeping and there is not much to write, save that we went for an early morning desert walk up and down the dunes. We arrived in Korla after completing our overnight desert journey, and spent an hour looking for a hotel that could accept foreigners (another unusual thing here - don't expect you can stay in any old hotel). We had a late lunch of polo (pilav/pilau). Delicious. Juicy pieces of orange and yellow carrot, succulent lamb, raisins and stewed, dried apricots. The best polo ever.
Day twelve | 15 September | Korla to Bosten Lake to Turfan
Breakfast in the hotel: tasteless dumplings, cold pickles with veggies and warm milk with sugar. Left around 10:00 Beijing time for Bosten Lake. Xinjiang is unofficially two hours earlier than Beijing, but we've found everything to run on Beijing time, which is the official timezone for the entire country. Bosten Lake - the largest in Xinjiang and one of the largest fresh water lakes in China - is located 2 hours from Korla and we had to pay an exorbitant 20 yuan each just to get in.
This was out first experience of Chinese tourist-ification - the systematic payment for entry, the consistent over-development and the regular bus-arriving hordes of domestic tourists. Thankfully, the third of these was absent and the lake was quiet, except for the local fishermen. The place itself was not remarkable, but the light was good and storm clouds were gathering across the lake, so it was atmospheric.
The onward drive to Turpan was smooth, along a highway through dry scenery. Turban was reached in the evening and we shared a kind of hot-pot for dinner at the night market.
Day thirteen | 16 September | Turfan
The next two days have been allocated to visiting Turfan, where there are apparently a plethora of sights. Turfan itself is a small, but sanitised, laid-back city - the second lowest depression in the world at 130m below sea-level (second to the Dead Sea), and the hottest place in China (reaching 50° celsius which isn't doesn't sound so extreme to me..!). We certainly came at a good time; the whole trip we've met with excellent weather - warm days and cool nights.
First stop was breakfast across the road from the hotel. Boiled cow milk with a little salt and cream on the top. It was enjoyed with some delicious friend vegetables and freshly baked, crusty bread. The first visit of the day was to Jiaohe Ruins, just outside the city limits.
Among the earliest settlers of this area are the Indo-European speaking Tocharians, who had populated the Tarim and Turfan basins no later than 1800 BC. From the years 108 BC to 450 AD the city of Jiaohe was the capital of the Anterior Jushi kingdom, concurrent with the Han Dynasty, Jin Dynasty, and Southern and Northern Dynasties in China. Jiaohe is a bit less than 2000 years old. It was an important site along the Silk Road trade route leading west, and was adjacent to the Korla and Karasahr kingdoms to the west.
The city was built on a large islet (1650 m in length, 300 m wide at its widest point) in the middle of a river which formed natural defenses, which would explain why the city lacked any sort of walls. Instead, steep cliffs more than 30 metres high on all sides of the river acted as natural walls. The layout of the city had eastern and western residential districts, while the northern district was reserved for Buddhist sites of temples and stupas. Along with this there are notable graveyards and the ruins of a large government office in the southern part of the eastern district. It had a population of 7,000 according to Tang dynasty records.
It was finally abandoned after its destruction during an invasion by the Mongols led by Genghis Khan in the 13th century.
The ruins were visited by the archaeologist and explorer Aurel Stein, who described "a maze of ruined dwellings and shrines carved out for the most part from the loess soil", but complained that a combination of local farmers' use of the soil and government interference in his activities prevented examination. The site was partially excavated in the 1950s and has been protected by the PRC government since 1961. There are now attempts to protect this site and other Silk Road city ruins.

Our first reaction when we arrived was shock at the sheer number of domestic tourists. Bus loads followed by bus loads, flowing thickly along the pathways. We started at a small information centre where they had some photos and information on the site. Several tour groups were inside at the same time, each trying to out-speak the other with their amplifiers.
The second reaction was amazement at the site: it was the ruins of an ancient, Silk Road city, located on a willow-shaped plateau surrounded on all sides by deep river valleys. The city itself - houses, temples, roads and government buildings - had been dug out of the earth. Very impressive. But you did have to use your imagination. Sometimes walls and windows could be made out, but it was mostly lumps of earth growing out of the ground. Most of the tourists only went to the observation deck, so we had much of the rest of the site to ourselves.
Groups of men, and a few women, were gathered around pens of sheep and goats; examining, bargaining, buying and selling. It was a lively atmosphere. The most interesting part of it were the fascinating faces, peering out from under small caps, Mao hats and large sun hats. We in turn generated a lot of interest. Next was Emin Minaret. Again, an exorbitant entry fee (30 yuan each). Emin Hoja, a Turpan ruler, founded this Afghan style mosque in 1777. It was nicely built - strong wooden beams and adobe walls and ceiling. Next stop was the livestock market. We arrived too late, but there was still some action going on. Large traders with big trucks, as well as small Ma/Pa outfits with their mule-drawn carts. Groups of
Next stop was the "lowest lake in the world", at least according to Zunun. A long drive through a terribly dry terrain to an empty and cracked lake bed. The salt flats were found by digging a little into the ground; salty, muddy water would emerge and dry into salt crystals.
Day fourteen | 17 September | Turfan to Urumxi
We thought we were going to Tuyoq Valley, but ended up, after passing the Flaming Mountains, at Bezeklik Caves. The guide book recommends avoiding them, so instead of spending more money on the Tourism Department, we decided to spend it on some local camel owners, who took us for a short side up into the desert. We rode them up a steep incline to the edge of a sprawling, mountainous desert which we then continued to explore on foot. The colours of the sand and rock were astounding - white and black and yellow, orange and swirling red.
Next stop was Tuyoq Valley. This is essentially an old Uighur settlement which, unlike all others, has been preserved for tourism. It consists of the village itself, the mazar (cemetery) with the important tomb of the first Uighur Muslim, as well as Buddhist caves dating back to the 3rd C. AD. The village has been a pilgrimage site for Muslims for centuries. It is claimed that 7 trips to Tuyoq equal one trip to Mecca.
The village was very pleasant, but small. We encountered one family which had set up a small chaikhana in the main room of their house. We sat for a kokchai and grapes and only realised later that - like the other tourist spots we'd visited - the prices would probably be outrageous. However, our host seemed unwilling to accept any money for the tea so we gave him a big tip.
We visited the caves which are kept locked up and maintained by a Uighur gentleman. The walls and ceilings were covered with Buddha figures, or what was left of them, in pastel colours. Almost all of the faces had been scratched out. This happened at the time of the Cultural Revolution, we were told.
On the way back to Turfan, we passed another sweet village, surrounded by hectares of grape vine. We took a few minutes to venture into the vineyards, which are wonderfully well kept. The vines rest on shoulder-high support beams, so you crouch-walk under a canopy of shaded vine leaves and grapes. This was much more pleasant than the super-touristic "Grape Valley" we visited back in Turfan. In the evening, we packed our bags, said farewell to Zunun and took a 2 hour bus ride to Urumxi, where we took a room in a hotel next to the bus station that night.
Day seventeen & eighteen | 20 & 21 September | Urumxi to Kashgar
The highlight of our time in Urumxi was most definitely the Regional Museum. It had three sections. The first was on the different ethnic groups of Xinjiang, including displays of their costumes, handicrafts, jewellery and houses. This was very interesting, despite constant references to the Motherland and the Unity of the Chinese People that read like a lot of brainwashing. The second section dealt with the history of Xinjiang. Again, heavily propagandised. All displays were in Chinese, Uighur and English. This section continues upstairs with a display of mummies, dating back to 1800BC, including the Loulan Beauty. They were wonderfully well preserved - hair, teeth, nails, skin, eyelashes and clothes. There were two men with intricate face tattoos. Unlike the images of the mummies discovered in peat bogs in Europe whose shapes were flattened and deformed, these mummies looked quite human - one could imagine them getting up and walking out of the museum.
The final section of the museum was a little different, almost hidden away in a back corner of the building. There were no English signs, but it was clear that it was dedicated to depicting "the glory" of the Revolution. It displayed documents, clothing and lots for weapons. I was surprised when a chained band of prisoners were led into the exhibition by an escort of police. They were all Uighur, very quiet and peaceful. I guess it was an attempt at some sort of rehabilitation.
Urumxi is large - it's full of big buildings, huge roads, shopping complexes. It feels very cosmopolitan. One evidence of this is the restaurant we found ourselves in after wandering the city streets - The Vine, managed by a women from Caracao!
The 24 hour bus for Kashgar was supposed to leave at 8, but left 1 1/2 hours later, stopping after 10 minutes for a dinner break. The bus was a smorgasboard of sensual overload - stinking feet, blaring music from the TV hung at the front, men shrieking into their phones. It was three rows of berths, one on the floor level and one level above. The seat-beds were surprisingly comfortable - the lower part for the legs was flat, but the upper back and head part of the beds were raised, like hospital beds. Good for sleeping. The view was nondescript and constant. The desert stretching out to the left side (the South) in a flat, yellow-grey expanse; dry, "flaming mountains" to the right side (North). The mountains took on a beautiful colour in the afternoon light as we neared Kashgar.
Day nineteen to twenty-three | 22 - 26 September | Kashgar
The last days of this journey in Xinjiang have been spent in Kashgar, before Luc heads back to Pakistan and I carry on to Tibet. We have timed our journey so we could visit the famous Kashgar Sunday market. It wasn't quite as amazing as expected, however. We arrived at 9 and thought we had missed the main event, but it turns out the vendors were just starting to set up. The crowds swelled later in the day; the city is supposed to increase by 50,000 people on Sundays because of the market.
There were two sections to the market - one was a large, covered section that sold all manner of items, such as second hand clothes and shoes, carpets, household cleaning appliances, tea and dried fruit, leather wear, etc, etc. Outside of this section along one street was the fruit and vege market, where old men and women came on their donkey carts to lay out their produce. There was another market elsewhere for livestock, but we didn't make it to this one.

Here we end our journey from Pakistan to China. Join us soon on the next series of this travelogue, spanning the entire Tibetan plateau.

Whether you are the General Manager, the Mine Manager, Engineering Manager, Health and Safety Officer, Mine Overseer/Captain or the Shift Supervisor, ROKMAN mobile solution is designed to assist you in meeting both your legal and operational goals. Seamlessly integrated into Microsoft Outlook , management can view a Master Console analysing the KPI for their area of responsibility. Information can be view by mine, shaft, cross-cut/stoop/ by team, by individual, analysing pre-scheduled tasks identifying which have been completed or are now overdue. Managers can respond to specific requests for materials or support from the rock face by scheduling tasks on the fly to the appropriate people or departments.
The ROKMAN solution differs from existing paper based processes in that information is digitally captured at source on rugged devices via electronic pages designed for ease and speed of use. Shift Supervisors sign on via drop down boxes on the screen after collection of equipment from the lamp room. The system automatically loads predefined tasks for that shift as per an organisations operational procedures.
Tasks are managed by icon driven responses and depending on the response the operator is automatically routed to the next appropriate action while all the time the system is monitoring the progress of tasks against a planned schedule i.e. was a safety inspection completed? Is engineering support required? Are additional stores such as explosives required? All actions are date, time and user stamped and written to an audit trail in the ROKMAN database to support future safety audits. Where appropriate those requests are routed to the associated management/support team e.g. Engineering Manager, for action and a stores request or works order generated.
To support the legal process, electronic signatures or fingerprint images may be captured in terms of declarations etc. Data can immediately be synced to the Managers Console depending on the mines communication infrastructure. In a worst case scenario data will be automatically uploaded at end of shift on returning of device to the lamp room. Managers can view completed safety checks and analyse the underlying data to detect patterns of equipment failure, lost production etc.
The Managers Console gives the mine manager a window on operations from which he may trigger ad-hoc tasks to support optimum on-going production. Once again, those ad-hoc unscheduled tasks are routed via workflow to the appropriate departments/people for action with automated feedback on status to the manager who originated the task.

A Win Against the #MeToo Mob

Judge Brett Kavanaugh defends himself against accusations of sexual assault in testimony Sept. 27 before the Senate Judiciary Committee in Washington. (Photo: Win McNamee/Pool/Zuma Press/Newscom)

"Rape apologist."
That's what the Women's March called Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, after she announced she was a "yes" vote to confirm D.C. Circuit Judge Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court.
This is who @SenatorCollins is: pic.twitter.com/U9klDNzeWr
— Women's March (@womensmarch) October 5, 2018
And it showed that for some on the left, this was never about fairness or due process or anything but exploiting the very real—and concerning—emotional trauma of millions of women to advance a political goal.
You can believe we have a crisis of sexual assault in this country, that there is a valid thirst for justice, and also that, based on the facts we have, Kavanaugh is not credibly guilty of sexual assault.
Collins was not dismissive of Dr. Christine Blasey Ford's allegations against Kavanaugh. In her speech Friday announcing why she was backing Kavanaugh, she detailed her thinking.
Collins noted that while Ford's testimony was "sincere, painful, and compelling," none of those Ford mentioned as present at the party where the alleged assault occurred when they were teens was able to corroborate her story. "Under penalty of felony," they have not backed Ford's story.
Collins noted that while Ford knows she had to have gotten a ride home from someone, no one has come forward to say he or she gave her that ride.
"The facts presented do not mean that Professor Ford was not sexually assaulted that night—or at some other time—but they do lead me to conclude that the allegations fail to meet the 'more likely than not' standard," said Collins.
And for that—for daring to weigh the facts and come to her own conclusion—the Maine Republican is now being derided by other women as a "rape apologist."
Because presumably she committed the sin of not acting in accordance with the mantra #believeallwomen—a ludicrous standard that also seems to be conveniently discarded by the left whenever, say, Bill Clinton's accusers come up.
And it does a great disservice to sexual assault survivors. There is much advocates of the #MeToo movement could do to help victims, from encouraging quick reporting of the assaults (particularly crucial if physical evidence exists) to working with police departments and hospitals to be sensitive and helpful to traumatized survivors. (No, of course, it's not fair that a survivor should have to deal with the additional trauma of reporting. But without videos of the incident, it's likely the best way to advance a case beyond he said, she said.)
The movement also could encourage a culture with far less drinking, given how often excess drinking and assault seem to overlap. (And no, I'm not saying a woman is to blame if she is assaulted after she has been drinking, any more than she is to blame if she is assaulted when walking on a lonely street at night. I'm just discussing possible ways to make assault less common.)
But the push to #believeallwomen—regardless of evidence and credibility—only undermines the movement.
And that's not the only way liberal activists have let down women in this round.
Amid Ford's testimony Sept. 27, one moment especially stood out: When she expressed ignorance of an offer made by Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, that she could answer questions in privacy in California, where she lives:
Republican counsel Rachel Mitchell: "Was it communicated to you by your counsel or someone else that the committee had asked to interview you and that they offered to come out to California to do so?"
Ford lawyer Michael Bromwich: "We're going to object, Mr. Chairman, to any call for privileged conversations between counsel and Dr. Ford. It's a privileged conversation."
Ford: "Can I say something to you—do you mind if I say something to you directly?"
Grassley: "Yes."
Ford: "I just appreciate that you did offer that. I wasn't clear on what the offer was. If you were going to come out to see me, I would have happily hosted you and had you—had been happy to speak with you out there. I just did not—it wasn't clear to me that that was the case."
And that wasn't the only way Ford was let down. As Collins said in her remarks Friday:
Professor Ford testified that a very limited number of people had access to her [confidential] letter. Yet that letter found its way into the public domain. She testified that she never gave permission for that very private letter to be released. And yet, here we are. We are in the middle of a fight that she never sought, arguing about claims that she wanted to raise confidentially.
But of course, private questioning wouldn't have led to the visuals of Ford testifying, visuals splashed across social media by activists. Her letter remaining private would not have led to a nationwide media circus over an alleged incident 36 years ago.
It's hard not to be cynical about what happened to Ford—and why.
There were already pushes for moblike tendencies before this vile graphic from the Women's March.
Sen. Mazie Hirono, D-Hawaii, said Sept. 18:
Guess who's perpetuating all of these kinds of actions? It's the men in this country.
And I just want to say to the men in this country: Just shut up and step up. Do the right thing for a change.
Hirono's remarks did a grave disservice to the many, many men who have treated women with nothing but respect, and who perhaps have intervened to try to keep women safe from other men.
And they did nothing to advance justice for sexual assault survivors—or Ford.
Ford does not represent all women who have been assaulted. Kavanaugh does not represent all men who have assaulted women.
Lost in the emotion of this moment has been that this moment has been about individuals.
The way forward for sexual assault survivors is to press for justice, one individual case at a time. It's not to shut up all men, or automatically believe all women.
And it's certainly not to deride as a "rape apologist" someone who took sexual assault allegations seriously, examined the evidence, demanded further investigation, and then shared her conclusions.

Bias in Big Data and Artificial Intelligence
Bias in Big Data and Artificial Intelligence 1h 4m 43s
Watch now 1h 4m 43s
More and more, the decisions that rule our lives are made by algorithms. From the news we see in our feeds, to whether or not we qualify for a mortgage, to the rates we pay for health insurance. And while there are demonstrable biases against marginalized communities caused by algorithms, some say the machines are innocent — they're just doing math. But as more systems rely on big data and artificial intelligence, bias and discrimination is rampant. How do we protect ourselves when we're at the mercy of the few who create the algorithms? Should there be a universal set of ethical standards? Is regulation needed? How can we be more savvy about the models that increasingly, and imperceptibly, rule our lives?

Sorry, we couldn't find any results


Every day millions of people worldwide search for answers to certain questions, search for various information that will help them make their lives better. It is the same need as the need for food. It means that if there is such a need, a person will satisfy it once it becomes possible. If you can answer some questions or know how to improve people's lives, why not take money for it? Actually, what is money? It is a form of gratitude from people for something useful they acquired. Once you do something useful for people – get gratitude in return.
What will people pay money for? For getting all the necessary information and answers to their questions here and now. They will not have to spend time on searching – everything they need will be offered in one information file. That is why when you create an information product, you should keep in mind that since a person uses a product, he or she must get all answers to all questions the solution for which the product offers.
It will be better if the product is focused on answering some big question. For example, «how to lose extra weight?», «how to feel confident in any situation?», «how to achieve your goals?», «how to become a leader?», «how to find or create your own business?», «how to start your business on the Internet?», «how to write a book?» etc. Of course, you should write about what you understand, what you are successful in and what you are interested in. So, when you choose a subject you are going to write about, take your own abilities and interests as a basis. Otherwise, the reader will feel that the author is not competent and the product will most probably be a failure.
You may freely publish this article «as is» on any other resources provided that no modifications are made in it.

So apparently I decided to take a week off from the blog. Totally wasn't planned, I promise. It was a worthy sacrifice considering all of the fiction writing I've been doing lately. My short story (which I've dubbed DRAMA OF THE CORN) is coming along. At first I was driving myself crazy paying attention to every little word–It must be short!–and I finally realized that length matters not at this point. That's what editing is for! Right now, I just need to get the story down because this bugger is effing persistent.
Fine, story, I'll write you. Just leave me alone.
I'm also doing a lot of writing for work, which mostly consists of copy describing museum programs, tweets, and research notes for upcoming blog posts. It's still enjoyable because I love writing but it exercises a different set of muscles. Plus, I can't write kissyface there. Bummer.
Now that HAPPENS FOR A REASON's in relatively good shape, I have to decide what's going to happen with the other WIPs taking up room in my Dropbox. There's at least four in varying stages. So intimidating. Which one to work on first? Do I trunk one (or more)? How can I get these stories to do what they're told?
What are y'all up to? How do you decide which story to write next?
I like to get a story down no matter what. I had to really push myself during the last draft. The revising and editing are considerably easier.
I really try not to start stories and not finish them so I try to go in order of when I came up with the idea for them. For instance I have 4 stories to write after I finish rewriting my WIP, and I'll be starting with the idea that first came, first. That is unless I get bored or stuck with it then I'll move on to another or if another one is pleading with me to write it (as one of them is right now).
Oooh. Why didn't I think of that?
Yes! That sounds like a sound strategy to me.
I guess I usually start writing and if I'm uninspired I move to the next idea/story.
BTW, those moving images are awesome!
That's not a bad method. I keep trying to force myself to stick with it until it's done and then I get frustrated and abandon it completely.
That's the problem. One day I hate them all, then the next one is looking particularly lovely and shiny. Blargh!

US warns Belarus to keep its commitment to neutrality
EBRD, JPMorgan team up to launch Istanbul advisory support for women entrepreneurs
By bne IntelIiNews September 30, 2021
The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) and JPMorgan have launched an advisory support programme in Istanbul that provides access to knowhow to selected women entrepreneurs in Istanbul.
Philanthropic support from JPMorgan means the programme will also include the development of entrepreneurial skills through training and networking, the EBRD said.
Following a selection process organised by the development bank, 10 high-potential micro and small companies run by female entrepreneurs were chosen for the programme: Hadi Ham Yap, Esra Bridal, Ege Teknoloji Kimya, Nude Danismanlik, Dogaclama Gida, Brev Bilisim, Buyuk Beden Stil, Ozge Makina Torna Pres, Skare Gida Pazarlama and Shaman's Secret.
The companies operate in sectors ranging from garment manufacturing to business software design to metal processing.
"Their priority is to overcome the economic impact of the Covid-19 crisis and the ongoing volatile business environment so that they can continue to grow in a sustainable manner," the EBRD said.
The EBRD cited the example of Dalya Saftekin, who founded her business in 2018 to produce healthy cakes and snacks. The entrepreneur manages the enterprise with her mother, Tuna. Their brand name is Hadi Ham Yap and they aim to help parents feed their little ones healthy food. "Currently, they produce at home, but will soon move to a production facility, which will be a huge change for the company. The EBRD will help Dalya as she scales up her operation; a local consultant has started to work with the firm to design new operational procedures, provide knowhow on financial management and begin building a team that will help mother and daughter bring their business to the next level," the EBRD said.
The development bank said its Women in Business programme has helped more than 20,000 women entrepreneurs in Turkey since 2014 to reach their full potential by providing credit lines, advisory support, training, mentoring and access to business networks. "Greater participation of women in the economy and a closing of the gender gap are expected to increase the country's overall prosperity," it said.
JPMorgan is the first private philanthropic organisation to support the EBRD's advisory operations in Turkey with grant co-financing, aiming to boost the growth of small businesses and especially women's entrepreneurship. The newly launched advisory programme is part of the firm's $150mn, five-year commitment to expanding opportunities for underserved entrepreneurs globally.
Support from JPMorgan will also be used to develop and promote the EBRD Know How Academy, an online learning platform for entrepreneurs. It helps entrepreneurs to access tools and training that are relevant to growing their businesses.

Q: Typescript - function return type as interface I'm looking at possibility to define return type of a function as type, that implements interface
not instance of a type, that implements interface, the type itself
with types I can do:
interface A {
  doSomething(): number;
}

class Base implements A {
  doSomething() { return 1; }
}

class Ext1 extends Base {
  doSomething() { return 2; }
}

class Ext2 extends Base {
  doSomething() { return 3; }
}

function process(x: number): typeof Base | null {
  if (x === 1) {
    return Ext1;
  } else if (x === 2) {
    return Ext2;
  }
  return null;
}

Which is your normal factory function based on condition
The problem is, I do have to define Base class I do not care about at all and do some dummy implementations of A
What I'm looking for is:
interface A {
  doSomething(): number;
}

class Ext1 implements A {
  doSomething() { return 2; }
}

class Ext2 implements A {
  doSomething() { return 3; }
}

function process(x: number): typeof A | null {
  if (x === 1) {
    return Ext1;
  } else if (x === 2) {
    return Ext2;
  }
  return null;
}

but error happens
'A' only refers to a type, but is being used as a value here.ts(2693)
Is there a way to do this?

A: You need a constructor signature:
function process(x: number): (new () => A) | null {
    // ...
}

Michael Guttman is a violinist, conductor and music director of prominent festivals around the world, including Pietrasanta in Concerto, Crans Montana Classics in Switzerland, Le Printemps du Violon in Paris, and Made in Polin in Warsaw. He is also the music director of the Napa Valley Symphony and the Belgian Chamber Orchestra. Guttman received the prestigious Scopus Prize (2014) from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem for his achievements in music, and was also nominated for a Grammy award for his Hindemith Album with the Philarmonia Orchestra.
He was the youngest violinist ever admitted to the Brussels Royal Conservatory at age 10. His debut at age 14, with Jean-Pierre Rampal, led to the meeting with his mentor Isaac Stern who recommended him for further studies at the Juilliard School in New York City where he studied with Dorothy Delay and The Juilliard Quartet. He studied with the legendary Russian violinist Boris Goldstein, in tribute to whom he organized a violin competition together with Professor Zakhar Bron in Bern, Switzerland in 2014.
As Belgium's leading violinist, he was chosen to represent his country in 1992, during the Sevilla Universal Exhibition. Concerts at the Lincoln Center, Barbican Hall, Palais des Beaux Arts in Brussels, Salle Pleyel in Paris, and in Asia were followed by invitations to prestigious festivals such as, Progetto Martha Argerich, Flanders Festival, Bashmet's Elba Festival, Folles Journées of Nantes and Tokyo, and the Menuhin Festival Gstaad. He premiered the Philip Glass Double Concerto for Violin and Cello with the Dallas Symphony Orchestra in the USA and the Hong Kong Philhamonic for Asia, which were both conducted by Jaap Van Zweden. He has toured with Martha Argerich, Nestor Marconi, Nigel Kennedy, Boris Berezovsky and Vadim Repin among others.
After collaborating with composers and conductors such as Lukas Foss and Noam Sheriff, he developed his conducting career and in 2017, toured the most prestigious halls in Spain appearing with the legendary pianist Ivo Pogorelich.
His encounter with Astor Piazzolla encouraged him to discover different styles of tango music, and in 2017 he created the first double concerto for violin and bandoneon with the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra and J.P. Jofre, the famous Argentinian bandoneon player.
Michael Guttman plays on a 1735 Guarneri del Gesù violin once owned by the great Italian violinist and composer Giovanni Battista Viotti.

Rather than hijack nevemore's thread, I decided to discuss the river sections I am making for my wargame area.
This is still very much a work in progress, as I need to work on the river bank side of the boards, and then paint and flock them, but the basic idea is that I have cut some MDF boards in to various widths.
I place a blue cloth over the gaming area and them place the boards on top of the cloth.
As each board is of a different width, I can change the size of the river to a large creek, to a wide river, or a shore line.
I decided to try this method of making rivers as I was never happy with the rivers and the river banks being higher than the playing area. I have always wanted rivers to be lower than the playing area so it looks more like a river.
The only problem so far with my concept is that the sections are more or less straight. I wold have to get some better tools or someone to cut new ones for me if I wanted bends or curves.

Roulette est une super-vilaine mutante appartenant à l'univers de Marvel Comics. Elle a été créée par Chris Claremont et Sal Buscema, et est apparue pour la première fois dans New Mutants vol. 1 #16-17, en 1984.

Origines
Jennifer Stavros est née à Atlantic City, dans le New Jersey. La jeune mutante fut recrutée au sein des Hellions, dirigés par Emma Frost, la Reine Blanche du Club des Damnés alors rivale du Professeur Xavier.

Une des premières missions des jeunes mutants fut de capturer Kitty Pryde et Doug Ramsey. Ces derniers furent vite secourus par les Nouveaux Mutants, qui défirent les Hellions.

On revit Roulette quand les Hellions attaquèrent les X-Men sur l'île de Muir, pour venger la mort du frère d'un de leurs membres, James Proudstar (son frère John, alias le X-Man Épervier, était mort au combat). Finalement, Warpath fit marche arrière et l'équipe s'enfuit.

Plus tard, quand les Nouveaux Mutants furent traumatisés par leur mort et leur résurrection orchestrées par le Beyonder, Emma Frost vit cela comme une l'occasion de prendre le contrôle des élèves de Xavier. Elle convainquit Magnéto, alors directeur par intérim, de la laisser prendre en charge les jeunes mutants dans son école. Les Hellions les accueillirent et se lièrent d'amitié avec eux, mais Magnéto ordonna à ses élèves de partir, car Empath l'avait manipulé.

Les deux équipes s'affrontèrent de nouveau peu après, chacune voulant rallier la créature appelée Bird Boy (Bird-Brain). Dans le combat, Roulette utilisa ses pouvoirs pour éviter une mort certaine à son amie Catseye et à elle-même, alors qu'elles chutaient du haut d'un immeuble.

Roulette fit partie des Hellions qui attaquèrent les New Warriors pour récupérer de force Firestar, qui avait déserté leurs rangs. Elle battit Speedball. Finalement les Hellions abandonnèrent sur ordre d'Emma Frost.

Par la suite, Trevor Fitzroy, un membre des Parvenus venu du futur, débarqua lors d'une soirée organisée par les Hellions, dans le but de tuer Emma Frost pour gagner des points. Il tua plusieurs élèves ce soir là, dont Roulette.

Pouvoirs
 Roulette était une mutante pouvant produire des disques d'énergie psychique qui altéraient les lois de probabilité de tout ce qui était en contact, résultant en chance (disques rouges) ou en poisse (disques noirs).

Ozzy Osbourne Lashes Out When He Is Asked About His "Addiction"
Ozzy Osbourne A Sex Addict? Maybe Not The Case…
2016 was quite a ruckus year for the legendary Ozzy Osbourne. Through lawsuits, scandals, family tensions, and a partridge in a pear tree, the 68-year-old rocker has his plate fuller than most, but he has managed to persevere. The story that had probably the most traction in recent months was the one regarding his sex addiction.
According to multiple sources, Ozzy Osbourne had been dealing with a sex addiction that had been driving a wedge between him and his wife Sharon Osbourne. The funny thing is, Ozzy Osbourne fully admitted to having a problem, but now, that doesn't seem to be the case, and Ozzy Osbourne has recently just made that VERY clear.
Here is some of what he had: "I'm in a f***ing rock band, aren't I? There have always been groupies. I just got caught, didn't I? It was a bump in the road. I don't think I'm a f***ing sex addict."
When asked about how it affected his marriage: "In any marriage, you grow apart if you don't spend enough time together, and that was part of the problem. Sharon is a workaholic, and that's great. But if she comes home from X Factor and wants to go to bed, what the f*** am I supposed to do?"
It seems from what Ozzy Osbourne is saying here that it's all a matter of perception. Ozzy Osbourne doesn't see himself as a sex addict, yet Sharon Osbourne does. Either way it's a messy situation and we hope for the best. Like Ozzy said, if you're in a rock band surrounded by groupies, anything could happen, so who are we to judge? I just hope that Ozzy and Sharon are happy. What do you think about all of this? Let us know in the comments!

Duran Duran's Kaiser Hope
June 29, 2009 Press
DURAN DURAN'S KAISER HOPE
Duran Duran enjoyed collaborating with Kaiser Chiefs drummer Nick Hodgson on several songs for their forthcoming new album.
Duran Duran expect big things from their Kaiser Chiefs collaboration.
The group are currently in the studio with producer Mark Ronson and are delighted with their recent writing session with the 'I Predict A Riot' hitmakers' drummer Nick Hodgson.
Keyboardist Nick Rhodes said: "We did half a day's writing with Nick from the Kaiser chiefs, which was fun. He's a friend of Mark's and he thought we'd be able to do something different with him.
"We got some really good things from it actually, it's not finished yet but they'll definitely make the album."
The 'Rio' star also revealed they have to keep an eye on Mark around the musical equipment in the studio.
He added to BANG Showbiz: "Mark is just producing but he did have some shakers out the other day and you've got to watch him around those."
"There won't be a brass section on the record unlike things Mark's done before - but he did say he wants it to sound like Duran Duran."
Duran Duran play Edinburgh Castle on July 16 and the Lovebox Weekender in London, which takes place between July 18-19.
Tickets for the latter are available from www.lovebox.net.

Duran's new Zombie look


But Amazon's public filings don't list any revenue data for AWS. Instead Amazon, which reports second quarter results this week, lumps its numbers into the "other" category on its financial statement and aggregates its profit or loss with Amazon's retail business.
Some large Amazon shareholders say privately that they believe the unit has become big enough that Amazon should be required to break out its numbers, though accounting rules might give the company wiggle room.
Opacity is vintage Amazon. CEO Jeff Bezos has long obscured the phenomenal growth of his company's core e-commerce business to distract competitors.
