Afghanistan in 2019: This is what losing looks like
Not a damn thing is going well in Afghanistan.
That's what your friend and humble narrator took away from a Defense Writers Group breakfast on Wednesday with John Sopko, the famously blunt special inspector general for Afghanistan reconstruction.
In contrast to U.S. military officials' optimistic statements on Afghanistan, SIGAR's quarterly reports are among the few public documents that provide an honest account of how bad the situation on the ground really is. On Jan. 2, President Donald Trump said it is "insane" that SIGAR releases so much information about Afghanistan and he told Acting Defense Secretary Patrick Shanahan to put a stop to it, but the reports continue to be released – for now.
However, almost all of the metrics used to measure successes and failures in Afghanistan have either become classified over time or are no longer collected, Sopko said on Wednesday. The Afghan government has also asked the U.S. military to stop publicly releasing the number of Afghan troops and police who have been killed.
"Embarrassing things tend to get classified in this town," Sopko told reporters. "Governments don't usually classify good news. If they do by mistake, it's leaked."
The unintended consequence of so much data being classified or non-existent is that people in both the United States and Afghanistan are suspicious that the U.S. military is losing the war, Sopko said.
"The Afghan people know which districts are controlled by the Taliban," he said. "The Taliban obviously know which districts they control. Our military knows it. Everybody in Afghanistan knows. The only people who don't know what's going on are people who are paying for all of this, and that's the American taxpayer. So I'm old school on this. I figure if I'm paying for it — if you're paying for it — you ought to know how well of a job they're doing."
The information that is publicly available does not inspire confidence.
More than 17 years into the war, the U.S. government has failed to kick the terrorists out of Afghanistan, Sopko said.
SIGAR is concerned that Afghan commandos are fighting so often that they are at risk of burning out, while Afghanistan's conventional forces have not shown any significant improvement, he said. In fact, SIGAR heard last year that the Taliban told fighters to buy their weapons from Afghan government forces, "Because they're better and cheaper," he said.
While the Afghan security forces look formidable on paper, the U.S. military is paying the salaries of tens of thousands of Afghan troops and police officers who do not exist, Sopko said. They are called "ghosts" and SIGAR has no idea how many of these phantasms are counted as combat ready forces.
While the U.S. military gives money to the Afghan defense ministry to pay for soldiers, those funds only go to troops who have been validated and biometrically enrolled in the Afghan military's pay and personnel system, said Lt. Ubon Mendie, a spokesman for Operation Resolute Support.
The Afghan police are funded through a program administered by the United Nations, Mendie said.
Meanwhile, the Air Force has stopped attacking Taliban drug labs because the highly publicized airstrikes — involving F-22 Raptors and other extremely expensive aircraft — proved to be pointless, he said.
The labs that were destroyed were extremely small, smaller than the size of a dining room table, and each cost about $500 to build and operate, Sopko said. It is also unclear whether the barrels of liquid in the labs that were hit contained drug-making chemicals or water.
"If you blow them up, you'll blow up a few before the bad guys realize: 'Oh, well maybe we should move it to a mosque,'" Sopko said. "The second thing is: How much money was actually eliminated from the Taliban and from the drug warlords was totally exaggerated. The DEA told us from Day 1 that those amounts that we were claiming we were destroying were — I won't say 'fictional' — but there was no basis for that."
None of the bombing missions did anything to reduce Afghanistan's annual poppy crop, he said.
All of this is a long way of saying that Afghanistan is basically that cartoon of a dog drinking coffee in the middle of a fire.
You know the one I'm talking about:
The question remains whether the Afghan war is worth the continued sacrifices of U.S. service members and their families. No one seems to have a good answer.
"In Afghanistan we are setting the conditions for a political settlement which safeguard our national interests," according to a statement from Operation Resolute Support. "U.S. service members are committed to the defense of our nation and will continue to sacrifice wherever required to protect the people of the United States."
With the United States talking directly to the Taliban as part of peace negotiations, it is time for U.S. officials to begin planning for what should happen if the Afghanistan war finally does end, Sopko said. For example, the Taliban has 60,000 fighters, who would need to be reintegrated into society, and the Afghan government cannot afford to pay for its security forces.
"We're trying to educate Congress and new people in the administration as well as the people that, hey, this is not the forgotten war; this should not be Korea," Sopko said. "There are still Americans dying there — 2,400 Americans died. We've spent close to $1 trillion in Afghanistan. All of it is at risk if we screw up on the day after a peace agreement."

Q: Where can I put `reverse=true` to reverse sorting order? My teacher has told me to put reverse = True to make it sort highest to lowest but I really don't know where. My code is shown below.
import csv

f = open ('sort.txt')
csv_f = csv.reader(f)
newlist = []
for row in csv_f:
    row[1] = int(row[1])
    row[2] = int(row[2])
    row[3] = int(row[3])

    sort = sorted(row[1:4])
    row.append(sort)
    newlist.append(row[0:8])
print(newlist)

Can anyone please tell me where I would put reverse = True to make it print the scores highest to lowest?

A: You can do:
sort = sorted(row[1:4], reverse=True)

A: sorted() is a built-in function in Python. It has optional keyword arguments 'key' and 'reverse'. Your instructor is referring to applying the keyword argument as an input to the sorted() function. Check out more about optional arguments here.
As you can see from documentation, passing in a value for reverse follows this behavior:

reverse is a boolean value. If set to True, then the list elements are sorted as if each comparison were reversed.

PS: as PM 2Ring mentions, I would discourage you from using 'sort' as a variable name because it is a built-in method of the list type. You can read more about naming specifications in the style guide.

Syria: The World's War, BBC Two review - anatomy of a conflict, brilliantly told
A view from the streets and the chancelleries: Lyse Doucet attempts a perspective on the conflict of our century
by Tom BirchenoughFriday, 04 May 2018
Lyse Doucet: seeking balance in destructionBBC/Richard Cookson
This was not a film that left you with much respect for the wisdom of politicians, but perhaps its truest line came from John Kerry, when he called the ongoing – seven years, and counting – Syrian conflict "an insult to the humanity of this planet". Lyse Doucet has covered it as a reporter for the BBC since its beginning back in March 2011, and Michael Rudin's two-part (the second comes tonight) documentary Syria: The World's War saw her revisiting some of its darkest moments, sometimes recapping how she had reported them at the time. That was combined with the perspective of today, including in-depth interviews with participants, both those involved on deadly street level and those from the distant corridors of power.
History may eventually give a sense of context to everything, but the repercussions of the Syrian manifestation of the Arab Spring have been so enormous, in terms of death and displacement alike, that finding any element of balance was going to be a struggle. "Bad man, good people," was one intentionally simplistic evaluation offered here, but it rather characterised the West's default frame of reference for civil conflict reflecting a traditional opposition between oppressive despot (and the self-interested structures that buttress him), and a popular movement that appears, almost out of nowhere, to demand change.
On one hand there were those calm interviews in quiet rooms, on the other the relentless imagery of conflict
It's rarely a problem to find people to articulate, with complete conviction, the side of the freedom-seekers, but presenting the opposing perspective – the conservative argument, the one supporting the status quo – with comparable sincerity can be more difficult. Doucet resolved it by engaging principally with two women, Noura and Hayat, both from the city of Homs (the "capital of the revolution", as it has come to be known), who eloquently and movingly embodied two very different positions.
Noura began as a student, whose growing opposition to the Assad regime saw her become a self-described "daughter of the revolution"; the older Hayat had been a journalist, whose experiences drove her in the opposite direction, to a decision "to stand by my government, my country and my army". Noura survived imprisonment, and is now in exile (like, we assumed, all the opposition figures with whom Doucet spoke); Hayat had initially reported events for state media before, after her son was killed by the rebels, joining the Ministry of Information. That last detail could easily suggest that her perspective when talking to Doucet might be biased towards the official line, but it would be a cynical viewer indeed who came away from this extended conversation without acknowledging the tragic sincerity of someone to whom life had brought suffering on a scale that she could barely have imagined.
And yet… We never really learnt about the context in which Syria: The World's War was made, within Syria especially, what (if any) hand the Assad regime had in limiting access within the area it controls. In setting out to speak to the very top politicians from all sides (as well as their more hands-on, executive deputies), it was very much in the Brook Lapping (The Death of Yugoslavia) production style of capturing the broadest perspective on events, history in its formation, if you like. But where we may have wondered about Hayat's final position, when it came to the likes of Faisal Mekdad, Syria's Deputy-Foreign Minister ("I slept peacefully," he remembered after Obama failed to follow through on his chemical weapons "red line" ultimatum), or the military commander Mohamed Khaddour, for whom his army's role had been limited to handing over violators of the law to the authorities, there could surely be no illusion. Doucet's style in addressing them almost spoke for itself, as she dropped her eyes and lowered her voice when straight-faced lies were being spouted back at her (it was a lesson, you could not help thinking, that her interlocutors had learnt from their Russian protectors).
This was a programme of two parts. On one hand there were those calm interviews in quiet rooms, on the other the relentless imagery of conflict – the greater part, we presumed, sourced from its direct participants, shot on their phones rather than by professional reporters – and the obliteration of an entire physical landscape. You could draw any number of conclusions from the former, one of which was unavoidably that, if you were looking for diplomatic gravity, the go-to Foreign Minister here was Saudi Arabia's Adel Al-Jubeir, rather than our own smirking William Hague. For the latter, the sight of Doucet walking along destroyed, abandoned streets that had once been part of thriving cities said it all.

Eduardo "Eddie" Canales, Chair
Eduardo Canales is currently the Director of the South Texas Human Rights Center in Falfurrias, TX. Born of migrant farm worker parents, Eddie spent his early years in a rural, migrant border town outside of Texas, while his father worked in steel mills in Gary, Indiana and East Chicago. They were poor: he did not have the luxury of inside bathroom facilities until 6th grade. Early jobs included farm work, shoe shining, barber/beauty shop sweeping and the neighborhood youth corps, followed by factory work, cafeteria cleanup, and bottling plant/warehouse work. After junior college, Eddie attended the University of Houston, where he became involved with MAYO and La Raza Unida Party, beginning a long history of political activism and organizing. He has served the social and economic justice movements in many capacities and with several organizations, including the Congreso de Aztlan (the National Committee of La Raza Unida), the Texas Farmworkers, the Longshoremen, SEIU's School District Campaign of custodians and cafeteria workers, and Centro Aztlan in Houston, where he was a Director for ten years. Eduardo has been an organizer in Colorado, New Mexico, Eastern Washington, Montana, Idaho, Texas and Wyoming; he has agitated, organized, negotiated and provided direct services around issues ranging from economic and labor justice to anti-police brutality.
Bill Chandler is the founding Executive Director of the Mississippi Immigrants Rights Alliance (MIRA). An eyewitness to the brutal immigration raids of the 1950's, he has been continuously involved in supporting the rights of immigrant workers. Bill has been an organizer for more than 50 years, beginning as a laboratory worker in 1960 when he helped build SEIU Local 434 at Los Angeles County Hospital, to working with the United Farm Workers during the 1965 Delano-based grape workers strike, to the historic, trans-national, and powerful Starr County farm workers strike in 1966. Sent as an organizer by Cesar Chavez, he witnessed first hand both the U.S. and Mexican governments' brutal but ultimately unsuccessful attempts to repress labor justice. Since then, his organizing focus has been on the lowest paid workers in the South, including farm workers, hospitality, health care, and immigrant workers. Bill has pro-actively served the struggle for affirmative action in the Labor Movement: every union he has organized in the South has been led by women of color, and MIRA's board of directors is a majority African-American and Latino board.

However, their market capitalization (market value) is 898.5 billion (Apple) and 592.29 billion (Amazon), respectively. It's not the best overall ranking, but it could have something to do with the drink itself.
In the digital age, it's all about the reviews and if Kyle can manage to drum up some positive response in that arena, then Loverboy is pretty golden.
While continuing to tour in 2014, it was announced on the official Loverboy home page on June 19, 2014 that the band's newest album of all-original material, Unfinished Business, was expected to be released on July 15, 2014. Loverboy celebrated 25 years together in 2005 and began to perform in selected cities to commemorate this milestone. Your email address will not be published.

The Entrepreneurial Alliance was founded in Curitiba Paraná in 2005 by Rodrigo de Brito Mello e Silva, Lina Maria Jaramillo Useche Kempf , Casanovas Helena Vieira , Eduardo Gomes Camargo , Norma Hitomi Ikeda, Maria Fernanda Candido and Luis Alberto Ribeiro Paschenda , in order to offer the low-income microentrepreneurs and productive community groups of all ages and sectors , the support they needed to develop their business. That first year , we started the partnership with Alphaville Foundation in the metropolitan area , and then we started to work in the field of Inclusive Recycling , supporting waste pickers organizations.
In 2006 we began to expand our work to other communities in Curitiba to close a partnership with Walmart Institute . Parallel to this , our strategy work together to microenterprise solidified as an access platform for inclusion and entrepreneurial development. The platform was divided into three main entrances: Knowledge , Credit and Marketing . In order to provide access to credit to microentrepreneurs , started a micro-credit fund and Solidarium – market access platform – in order to connect microentrepreneurs with large retail chains .
In 2007 we began operating in Recife , built the first point of sales of low-income microentrepreneurs products in a Walmart store in Curitiba, Solidarium before a platform within the Alliance was formalized as a social business, Rodrigo de Mello Brito and Silva – one of the founders – was selected as " Fellow " received our first National Award : , Visionaris – promoted and sponsored by UBS .
In 2008 we expanded the operation to Sao Paulo, created the deMetodologias Development area to research, develop , organize and replicate the methodologies that we created to support the low-income microentrepreneurs . In the area of Inclusive Recycling, we were invited by Avina , National Movement of Recyclable Material Collectors and the Municipality of Curitiba to implement the project Eco Citizen, in order to apoiar25 organizations of waste pickers for 5 years. We also started this year to engage more actively in encouraging entrepreneurship in the scenario in Brazil , to mobilize in Paraná, the Global Entrepreneurship Week in partnership with Endeavor . We received the award " Top Social ADVB SP " and Rodrigo Brito was finalist in the Leaf Social Entrepreneur , sponsored by the newspaper Folha de São Paulo and the Schwab Foundation .
The year 2009 was one of the most important to us. We received advice from McKinsey and Ashoka , and restructured our expansion strategy , for she knew it through methodological transfer to allied organizations throughout Brazil . Motivated by this strategy , we began a partnership with Santander in the project " Partners in Action" , and selected from 232 enrolled, 5 NGOs from different parts of Brazil to receive our methodology , investment , monitoring and support for two years. Also this year , we were one of five Brazilian organizations invited to participate in the Global Forum Cornell in the category Sustainable Company , held in New York by Professor Stuart Hart .
The year 2010 was the year of harvesting fruits of our labor. We continue to expand through allied organizations, created the Portal Impulse – extension of credit to access platform – allowing anyone to know and invest in micro entrepreneurs over the internet and begin an inclusive business project developed in partnership with the cosmetics company Natura, to facilitate access to knowledge and credit to micro hairdresser who was also sellers Natura. In recognition of our work, we were voted the most reliable NGOs in Brazil in Income Generation category by Readers Digest magazine, we were invited to participate as Clinton Global Initiavie member in New York, Lina Maria Jaramillo Useche Kempf – one of the founders – was elected Fellow of the Youth Action Net and Rodrigo de Brito Mello e Silva was elected as one of three Brazilian selected to attend the Young Global Leaders of the World Economic Forum.
In 2011 we reorganized our internal structure in areas , and focus on knowledge and methodologies as the focus of our work , so partnering in credit and marketing to provide such access to micro-entrepreneurs . In spreading the entrepreneurial culture and entrepreneurial inclusion , we were one of 10 organizations invited to compose the National Council of the Global Entrepreneurship Week in Brazil , promoted the first edition of the " Alliance Award for Community Entrepreneurship " , and we were invited by the TV show " Cauldron Huck "on TV Globo to co- develop the framework " Sending Well, " a series of episodes in the TV program that identifies , supports and reform the location of low-income microentrepreneurs work that has an inspiring story . With about 50 million viewers , the series inspires and educates millions of Brazilians in the process of becoming an entrepreneur .
In 2012 we consolidated our internal working model: focus much on the internal development of the organization, the retention of talent and plan for jobs and wages. Also this year, we decided to adapt our working methods within the effectuation theory. Developed from research of Dr. Saras Sarasvathy, the theory sees entrepreneurship not as a gift or set of features, but as a "set of skills" that are developed by practice and experience. Rather than focus on developing a business plan based on forecasts for the future, the methodology of the Alliance uses of the effectuation theory approach to encourage micro-entrepreneurs to establish and grow their business from which they have developed three fundamental pillars 1 – Who they are (identity, dreams and self-image); 2 – What do they know (knowledge and experience); and 3 – Who do they know (networking). This also led to a change in the evaluation of the impact generated, because we realize that only evaluate business growth was insufficient to understand the real impact that the methodology caused in the lives of microentrepreneurs supported. So we started working on a more complete metric, the Entrepreneurial Inclusion Index (ERI), based on the work with the effectuation theory. This year, we also consolidated our work in spreading the cause: We launched the 2nd Alliance Award for Community Entrepreneurship and transform the Portal Impulse in the 1st crowdfunding site geared to microentrepreneurs in Brazil.
In 2013 we received the Centennial Award Innovation Challenge, the Rockefeller Foundation and started to design a project to improve the fashion chain in São Paulo by strengthening and formalizing Sewing Workshops owners , close partnership with Youth Business International , organization based in England and chaired by the Prince of Wales to support young entrepreneurs in the world to start the entrepreneurial Generation Program for the support of Brazilian youth 18-35 years. With one of the fruits of this partnership , include mentoring as a process of support for micro-entrepreneurs within our methodology.
In 2014, in addition to continuing the Entrepreneurial Generation and design with the Rockefeller Foundation, launched the Tamo Together – first site aimed at low-income microentrepreneurs in Brazil, we present our expansion strategy in England – an event promoted by Ashoka and presents the Entrepreneurial Inclusion Index on events in Turkey and the United States. Fortify the provision of services to companies in consulting and implementation of inclusive business, and also in the implementation of custom awards such as Entrepreneur Challenge Anhanguera, designed especially for students of Anhanguera. This year is also the year of the transformation of the Alliance brand, launched the new brand in November with the new slogan: Everyone can undertake. By this we strengthen our role in empowering Brazilian microentrepreneurs, spreading the message that anyone can undertake, and to undertake is a set of skills that can be learned.

Q: Determining When to Refresh Access to Asana API When I do the initial authentication to the Asana API with OAuth, it gives me a refresh_token as well as an expires_in of 3600 ms (1 hour).
What is the typical way of determining whether my app will need to use the refresh_token to get a new access_token?
I can think of two options:

*

*Watch for an authentication error and then request a new access_token.

*Store the date/time from now until 1 hour from now. Then with each API request, check the date/time to see if that time has already passed, and if so, request a new access_token.

Is there a better way than one of these two options? I don't see a recommendation from Asana in their OAuth documentation.
Thanks!

A: (I work at Asana.)
Great question! Both of your ideas are quite reasonable and should work - pick whichever is easiest / makes sense for your implementation. #1 is a little more robust in case there is skew with the timing, but if you just add some padding (be sure to request the token 1-2 minutes before expiration) then #2 should work just fine.
Note that it is always possible for the user to revoke the token, in which case when you go to get a new token the request will fail.
This seems like a good thing for us to recommend in the documentation, and possibly even add an automatic mechanism for in our client libraries.

Ms. Sheri Goldstein Honored as Educator of the Year
Longtime and distinguished English Department Chair Ms. Sheri Goldstein will be honored by the ATT with its top award for the Hartman Family Educator of the Year Award on Monday, December 10. It's one of many well-deserved awards Ms. Goldstein has received in her 30+ years of teaching English at ICJA.
When Ms. Sheri Goldstein devours the text of any one of her favorite books during an English class, it's not clear to many of her students whether they're learning more from the author or from the passion pouring forth from their beloved teacher. It's likely the combination of both that is so inspiring.
At the time that ICJA honored Ms. Goldstein as Educator of the Year in 2010, alumnae Shira Wakschlag ('00) recalled, "Ms. Goldstein was always extremely energetic and passionate in the classroom. She is an incredibly vibrant teacher, and she infused all of her students with a love of literature, ideas and stimulating discussion. I was privileged to be her student and still think back on my class with her very fondly."
Ms. Goldstein, who will be honored by the ATT on December 10 at the Bryn Mawr Country Club at 6:30, attributes her passion in teaching to her love of books. She encourages her students to look at the complexity of sentences, which reflect the complexity of the characters. "We examine the characters to see how can our lives be enriched."
"Someone asked me how I can teach the same book 20 years in a row? When I'm teaching it to this class, it's the first time they're reading it. They give me sense of wonder, I'm still seeing the world with open eyes," says Ms. Goldstein. "Whatever unit I'm doing is my favorite."
More than just a love of literature and writing, Ms. Goldstein tries to instill passion in her students. "I want students to find those things they love and follow those passions. That's essential to having a positive life experience," she says. Each year Ms. Goldstein is able to provide her students with gifts of a lifetime precisely because she considers her work such a gift. "I love teaching and I love kids, especially high school kids," she says.
Ms. Goldstein seems to love her students even more than books. Ask her to recall memories of students throughout her 30+ years teaching at ICJA, and she lists scores of students. She names students she taught decades ago (!) and has fond memories to go along with each one. If that wasn't enough, Ms. Goldstein has a stack of letters from alumni, expressing their gratitude for all that they learned.
"On a rainy, cold day I'll go and read them because they're about making connections. Several teachers really changed my life in high school, but I never told them. But the thing about Academy students, is that they tell me."
Just to cite a few, Ms. Goldstein rattles off a list of students who have gone on to teach, many of whom have told her that she influenced their decisions. One student, who now teaches English and seeks advice from Ms. Goldstein, wrote that she never looked at English in the same way. One boy who never liked to read "told me he started reading in my class." Another former student presented Ms. Goldstein with a poem on last day of class, saying, "She will think of me every time she opens a book. How about that as a legacy?"
Leah Panitch Finkel recalls how Ms. Goldstein spent so many lunch meetings with her during her preparation for college. "She was always so interested and concerned about her students' future. Even to this day she always remembers what's going on in my life."
Melissa Steiner says, "The best piece of advice I ever received from Ms. Sheri Goldstein was senior year, and it was just 4 words: 'Ignorance is never bliss.' I don't remember the context, but I do remember she was fiery, passionate, yet also completely rational in her insistence. We were to never ignore the facts, never disregard history, never claim 'we didn't know' about anything that we could legitimately discover – and you have to understand this was at the conception of the digital age. YouTube didn't exist, the internet was in its infancy – and yet, she was undeniably prophetic in that moment.
She appreciated creativity in writing, in speaking, and in being. She never failed to make classes engaging and interesting. She expected each of us to achieve our best, without comparing us to each other. She got a bunch of teenagers to understand Shakespeare, and she also instilled in me a love of the written word."
Ya'el (Gluck) Margolin says, "Ms. Goldstein taught me to think for myself, to express myself, and how to have a respectful argument."
Ben Draiman says, "Every class she would write very thought provoking quotes on the board that often stayed with me. One that had the most impact was from EE Cummings, an author I will forever associate with Ms. Goldstein. It read: 'To fight the hardest battle is to be yourself in a world that's constantly trying to make you like everyone else.' It influenced everything I did ever since, inspired more than one song that I composed over the years, and very much became the motto of my adolescence. She inspired many of us in so many ways by the little things she did. My writing, especially my creative writing, received the greatest boost by her and her constant encouragement. I pray one day my daughter will be lucky enough to have such a teacher."
Alum David Goldshmidt ('14) recently wrote in a letter to Ms. Goldstein about an incident where her lessons in Kafka helped him impress an Israeli man enough to try on tefillin for the first time since his bar mitzvah. "Thank you, Ms. Goldstein, for the love-infused teachings which would resonate with me for years to come—and which would even come in handy in unexpected situations."
Keren Bider says, "You taught me how to write, edit and speak publicly. You made literature come alive for us. Most importantly, you believed in me and made me feel like I could do anything! Your bright smile made everything even better! The few times that I have seen you since high school were in the library, which seemed so appropriate. I am a better person for having had you as a teacher, and you helped mold me into who I am today. Thank you!"
After years of teaching English in every grade level, public speaking (a course which she created) and journalism, Ms. Goldstein cannot choose a favorite. "Whichever class I'm teaching at the moment is my favorite. And I mean that. The day it becomes a chore, is the day I will retire."
As Goldshmidt wrote in his letter, "May you continue to light up the world, one student at a time."
Some of this article came from a post we used in 2010 when Ms. Goldstein was honored by ICJA. To share your stories from class with Ms. Goldstein, email icjanews@icja.org

JAKE HYDE: "I'M REALLY EXCITED TO GET GOING"
Earlier today we confirmed the signing of Jake Hyde and the striker told us he's already enjoying life at Stevenage.
"I've been in with the boys for just over a week now, they've made me feel very welcome and there's a fantastic atmosphere around the place. As soon as I met the manager and staff here I knew my decision was made. I'm really excited to get going."
Jake will probably be best known among Boro fans for his goalscoring exploits at nearby Barnet, where he scored 32 goals over two spells and he's hoping for a similarly prolific impact here at The Lamex Stadium.
"I'd like to think, as most strikers do, that I'm a goalscorer. I always work as hard as I possibly can for the football club. I prefer the ball in the box, it's where I want to be scoring goals. I like to play football but I'm hungry to score goals and win football matches.
"I know this league inside out now and any team can go on a run, but it's who does it for the longest period that counts. It's about winning games and fingers crossed I can help Stevenage do that this season."
At 26, Jake becomes our oldest and most experienced striker currently on the books, certainly in terms of Football League games and he's looking forward to working with his fellow forwards.
"Fingers crossed my knowledge of the league will help us. It's good to have a mix of strikers with different abilities. I don't think I've ever been called the 'experienced' striker before, so cheers for that, but as I say it gives us options and it gives the manager a problem!
"Last season was the toughest I've had in my career but that's behind me now, I'm hungry to kick on and get back to where I was. I still want to learn, I still want to become a better player. I feel really good now and looking forward to a good start at Stevenage."
As well at expressing his delight at moving back down south to be closer to family, Jake said the impressive Bragbury End and The Lamex Stadium were big plus points to his move.
"The training ground here is a fantastic facility and that's massive because the training ground is where you put your work into practice, you're there a lot of the time. Similarly I've played at The Lamex Stadium a couple of times before and remember it's a tough place to come. We'll try and keep that reputation going and keep it a difficult place for teams to visit.
"I want to score goals, I want to win football matches and I want to see how far we can go at Stevenage. I haven't been in the door long but I can see from the manager, coaching staff and the boys that there's a definite togetherness, some really good players and a good understanding."

The DGX Premium O2 Center Bar w/Isolator Valve incorporates double O-ring seals known for their robust reliability. DGX Premium O2 valves for SCUBA are oxygen clean, using oxygen compatible materials and a lubrication free design.
WE WANT TO PROPERLY SET YOUR EXPECTATIONS: The modular port threads on these oxygen compatible valves are oxygen clean copper metal alloy (aka "brass") which exhibit some discoloration that is NOT aesthetically pleasing as chromed brass finishes typical of most SCUBA valves.
This doubles manifold isolation cross bar is the standard 180 mm size suitable for use with standard 8.5-inch center to center manifold spacing.
WE WANT TO PROPERLY SET YOUR EXPECTATIONS: The modular port fittings on these oxygen compatible valves are oxygen clean copper metal alloy (aka "brass") which exhibit some discoloration that is NOT aesthetically pleasing as electroplated chrome finishes typical of other SCUBA valves. If you consider the cosmetics to be important, and maximum compatibility with pure oxygen is less of a concern, then we recommend choosing our standard Nitrox Ready DGX Premium Valves over the DGX Premium O2 Valves.
DGX Premium O2 valves are oxygen clean, using oxygen compatible materials, lubrication free, and when sealed in the original factory packaging is also free of organic and particle contamination. The DGX Premium O2 valve seat & plug assembly has finer threads, making the initial opening action of the valve more gradual and requiring several more turns to fully open than the standard SCUBA valve. The DGX Premium O2 valves have modular port threads and port plug, seat & plug assembly that are not chrome plated. The outside body and other non-friction surfaces of the DGX Premium O2 valve remain chromed for the sake of cosmetics. The DGX Premium O2 valve includes a green colored handwheel.
DGX valves include a nearly indestructible handwheel made from soft rubber formed around a stainless steel insert. The stainless steel insert ensures positive operation with long-lasting life. The large ribs make it easy to open or close the valve even while wearing gloves. The rubber with stainless steel insert handwheel design is the preferred choice of technical divers and several optional handwheel colors are available.

A long time ago, Azor Ahai defeated the darkness and ended the Long Night. It is said that he will be reborn, and if that happens, it will happen in Game of Thrones Season 8. But who is Azor Ahai? Here's a refresher so you're ready for the final season of the HBO series.
Possible spoilers for Game of Thrones Season 8 below.
Azor Ahai has never been mentioned by name on Game of Thrones. However, the Prince Who Was Promised (or sometimes The Prince That Was Promised), said to be Azor Ahai reborn, has come up a few times.
But first, let's break down legend of Azor Ahai. He was the one chosen to fight the darkness of the Great Other. He needed to forge a sword, and doing so cost him greatly.
The story goes that his first attempt took him thirty days and thirty nights, but it broke when he tried to temper it in water. His second attempt took fifty days and fifty nights, but it broke when he stabbed it into a lion's heart.
It wasn't until his third attempt that he succeeded. After a hundred days and nights, he stabbed the sword into his wife Nissa Nissa's heart, and the steel of the sword became infused with her soul. That was how he created Lightbringer.
On the HBO series, Melisandre, a red priestess of the Lord of Light, first thinks Stannis Baratheon is the Prince Who Was Promised and many have come to believe this is the same person as Azor Ahai reborn. However, after Jon Snow comes back to life, she believes it's him.
All signs seem to be pointing to Azor Ahai reborn, the Prince Who Was Promised, being either Jon Snow or Daenerys Targaryen. Both fit the terms laid out by the prophecy. (The Valyrian word for "prince" doesn't have a gender, so it could stand for "princess.") But it's likely that if one is the prophesized champion that the other will also have a role to play.
To defeat the Night King, whoever is Azor Ahai reborn is presumably going to have to make a sacrifice just like the original hero did. For Jon and Daenerys, that would likely mean killing the other to forge their weapon.
If this does happen, that may explain Emilia Clarke telling Vanity Fair that Daenerys' ending "fucked [her] up, knowing that is going to be a lasting flavor in someone's mouth of what Daenerys is…" That would be fitting whether she kills Jon or he kills her.

The Naretha bluebonnet (Northiella narethae) or Naretha parrot is a bird found in a remote and arid region of Australia.  It is one of two species in the genus Northiella, and was first recorded in 1921 in Central Australia.

History
It was first described by Henry Luke White in 1921 as Psephotus narethae. An associate of White's, the field worker F. Lawson Whitlock, had come across a railway official on the Trans-Australian Railway with a pet parrot that had been caught at Naretha, which corresponded with no known species. Later, White was heading to Western Australia on business and stopped in Zanthus to talk to the official and obtained three skins which he conveyed to the museum in Melbourne.  The bluebonnet species was included for some time in the Psephotus genus with the Naretha, despite the very pronounced physical and behavioural differences to other birds in this genus. One of the biggest differences being that unlike the obvious sexual dimorphism of the Psephotus genus, the Naretha (and bluebonnets in general) sexual colouration of plumage is alike. The bluebonnet also has pointed or spatulate tips on the first five primary flight feathers.  The behavioural variations of bluebonnets include characteristic jerky, bobbing movements which are accentuated with excitement or fear and they have very unique call notes; unlike any other Australian bird. The Naretha parrot was subsequently classified as a subspecies (N. h. narethæ) of Northiella haematogaster, the eastern bluebonnet. A molecular study published in 2015 by Gaynor Dolman and Leo Joseph confirmed its genetic isolation from the eastern bluebonnet and recommended it be reinstated as a separate species.
Henry White was a wealthy pastoralist and was also a well known ornithologist and collector. He had enlisted the services of Whitlock to collect avifauna on this occasion in the areas of the western Nullarbor plain; during these times - in the late 1910s Australia was creating a significant east-west railway network - and Whitlock traveled to the area via train. Whitlock set up his exploration camp at the railway siding settlement of Zanthus and it was while he was staying at this town he saw the pet bird of a railway employee, deMarcaux, and it was a bird he had not seen before. DeMarcaux told Whitlock this pet bird had been taken from a nest, 5 years earlier at the railway line settlement of Naretha; which was 120km to the east of Zanthus.

Description
The Naretha bluebonnet is smaller than the eastern bluebonnet, at around  in length. The legs and feet are dark grey, and the iris is dark brown. The adult male has a two tonal facial pattern with a lighter green-blue forehead, lores and the area above the eye contrasting with the rest of the face which is a purplish-blue. The light grey-brown head, foreneck and breast are marked with pale steaks and diffuse spots. The back is olive-grey. The belly, vent and thighs are a uniform yellow with the red being restricted to the undertail-coverts area. The lesser wing coverts are blue and outer median wing coverts red, while the inner median and greater wing coverts, and inner secondaries a yellow-olive colour. The central tail feathers are tinged with pale blue. The adult female has a duller blue on the forehead, and reduced colour on wings and tail, and with no tint of orange on the belly. It is smaller overall at around  in length.

Distribution and habitat
The Naretha bluebonnet is reported to have been common in the arid Nullarbor region, and became rarer during the 20th century. The localised range of individuals is thought to make the species highly endemic to an area on the border of Western and South Australia.
Narethas are located in what is termed the Myall woodlands - this is a woodland dominated by acacia species.
The Naretha homelands extend over a large and isolated range. They are often observed more readily in areas where water has become an altered focal point - notably water troughs for stock.

Breeding
Breeding takes place in hollows in she-oak (Casuarinaceae) trees. The oval eggs are matte white.
Breeding begins early and Narethas are laying their first eggs by mid July. In the wild the site chosen is often a she-oak tree hollow which has a small knot hole entrance. However observers have also reported they have seen hens of the species emerge from tree crevices and splits rather than actual holes.  The scarcity of suitable trees in the Naretha homelands is perhaps the most likely explanation as to why a bird would squeeze itself in such a small space.

Periscope introduces Producer to help professionals broadcast to Twitter
Twitter wants you to help you step up your live streams.
By Karissa Bell on October 13, 2016

Twitter wants to help you step up your livestreams.
The social network's livestreaming app Periscope is opening up its app so that users can live stream directly from cameras other than the ones on their smartphones. The effort, called Periscope Producer, is meant to help broaden the reach of live video on Twitter by making it more accessible to professional broadcasters.
SEE ALSO: If you don't see Moments in your Twitter app anymore, here's why
At a basic level, Producer allows broadcasters to livestream to Periscope and Twitter directly from their own camera setup — whether it's a laptop webcam or a professional-grade video camera. But it also opens up other features likely to appeal to pros, such as the ability for broadcasters to add custom animations, graphics and even advertising to their streams. (Periscope doesn't have these tools built-in, but Producer makes it possible for broadcasters to add these elements manually.)
The goal, says Periscope CEO Kayvon Beykpour, is to expand the type of live video content that's available on Periscope and Twitter.
We want to broaden what can go into the Periscope ecosystem
"We want to broaden what can go into the Periscope ecosystem," Beykpour said during a press event in San Francisco on Wednesday. "If it can be captured and distributed live through either software or hardware, we want it to be able to be piped into Periscope and Twitter."
Periscope has been testing the platform for the last six weeks with a small group of partners that's included media companies like ABC, Telemundo, Fox and CBS, as well companies like Disney and Louis Vuitton. Now, Twitter is ready to open Producer up to more people.
Organizations and individuals who are interested in using Producer can now sign up to be part of the platform.
Previously, Periscope had introduced a couple of hardware integrations, including the ability to broadcast from a GoPro and DJI drones. Unlike those one-off integrations, which required you to pair the Periscope app to your drone or action camera, getting set up for Periscope Producer is a little more involved.
getting set up for Periscope Producer is a little more involved
Producer requires broadcasters to use encoding software or hardware in order to link Periscope to the relevant camera feed. This is similar to how livestreaming on YouTube works, but it does mean that Producer is more likely to be used by brands, media companies and professional streamers than casual users.
Beykpour says he expects broadcasts created via Producer will be "an extremely small subset" of Periscope's daily broadcasts, most of which will continue to come from smartphones. But as Twitter continues to prioritize live video and events, enabling professional-grade live streaming could go a long way toward realizing its goals.

Crime Script Analysis (2016) | Published in the Palgrave Crime Prevention and Security Management Series, Crime Script Analysis is about the application of script analysis to prevent crime in a business environment. As stated by the Series Editor, it provides an important reference point for anyone who wants to learn more about crime scripts and their use as tools of crime prevention. The book illustrates how script analysis aligns with the crime-specific orientation found in environmental criminology and particularly explores the theoretical foundations of situational crime prevention, the approach to which it is deemed most relevant and supportive. It provides clear guidance on how to apply script analysis in daily practice, covering its main building blocks and key features. Moving beyond the use of the technique with the intent to disrupt the crime-commission process, it further explores its wider benefits to both academics and practitioners, and identifies what is needed most if we want to embrace the full potential of script analysis for preventive purposes.
