The Grya Rong Temple of Nyingma lineage, the land of eternal truth, proclaims Substantial Reality eternally and thoroughly in Dege county, Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Region of Sichuan province, China. It was established by a mahasiddha, the first Wangjr Rinpoche —Jewang Bema Kungrol Namgyal. It used to be an exclusive school of the Dzogchen Temple which is one of three largest Nyingma lineage temples. Grya Rong Namgr Rinpoche lived in the temple and widely propagated the precious Dzogchen teaching of Nyingma lineage. Consequently, the Grya Rong Temple became an important Nyingma temple. At present, it has more than two hundred Lamas, including three Rinpoches four Khenpos.
The first Grya Rong Namgr•Za•Karong Perji Rinpoche was born in 1573 A.D., and got supreme accomplishment when he was just 20 years old. He completed abhiseca alliance with the 5th Denzin Gyatso Rinpoche and Minlng Derchenchg Rinpoche in Tibet and benefited all beings . When he achieved parinirvana, a rainbow appeared in the sky. And his body dissolved into colorful sarīra. Then he rised to the Padmasambhava's pureland in the rainbow's embrace and the fragrance of sarīra.
The second Grya Rong Namgr•Namkha Cewang Chogrup Rinpoche , born in 1657 A.D., was proficient in Five Sciences. He was appointed the guru of the Grya Rong Temple and the Dzogchen Temple. He widely accepted disciples, propagated Dharma-cakra and brought up countless eminent monks in the Kham Region.
The third Grya RongNamgr•Kunsang Thochog Dorje Rinpoche, born in 1757 A.D., learned Molm and Sogba Nyingthig from Patrul Jigme Chokyi Wangpo Rinpoche and Mipham Rinpoche. Great Terton Rigzin Nyima Gakba also taught him lots of Terma teachings. Therefore he achieved enlightenment in Five Sciences, and became the precious teacher of Sangha. He was addressed as "Wise Guru" in the Kham Region. Rinpoche made statues of Buddha, the Buddhist scriptures and pagodas all over his life, and got Great Perfection at last.
The fourth Grya Rong Namgr•Jigme Zomdr Karje Dorje Rinpoche, born in 1878 A.D., learned from Za• Corshu Gegr Rinpoche. When Rinpoche first met his master, he had a insight of Mahasandhi Dharma in a blink with the help both from the supreme blessings of the master and his own profound foundation. Since then, Rinpoche retreated in Gongri Togr Grotto and Ya Ma Log Exclusive School of the Grya Rong Temple, practiced Big Comfortable Dharma and eventually got enlightment.
Rinpoche saw Padmasambhava and his copper-colored palace in Yarlo Shegag Exclusive School in Tibet, receiving the guru's abhiseca, nectar pills and predictions — to propagate Buddhadharma extensively at the Dharma Ending Age. Then Rinpoche wrote down what he saw one by one. Rinpoche once excavated termas, such as Buddharūpa, vajvakilaka, and even six terma suttas of Dzogchen teachings. And he could call all the four elements — earth, water, fire, and wind freely. He was appointed the Grand Preceptor by the gurus of Tusis in Dege County, Ling Cang, and Yid Lo Lari area, and awarded gold books, jade seals. And he presided over the prayer Dharma Assembly of five temples in Yid Log area with Azom Grugba Rinpoche in the Grya Rong Temple.
Rinpoche maintained disciplines strictly, built temples and buddha statues, gave blessings to reassure sentient beings, encouraged people to be conscious, and was worshiped by the vast number of believers. The Dakinis once gave ryakarana and said: "all beings associated with Rinpoche can get to the pure land of copper-colored mountain." Rinpoche predicted all beings would be faced with a big disaster before he leaving this world. So he dressed himself with a beautiful and powerful outfit, with a half static half fierce face, sat in the lotus throne to show the karuna and deterrence and achieved parinirvana.
The fifth Grya Rong Namgr•Jigmey Namkha Norbu•Choenyi Brpa Choeniy Dondok Rinpoche, whose father is the fifith Chewu Rigzin•Chenbo Tebdan Chnls Norbu Rinpoche and mother is Geza•Jajo, was born with a propitious phenomenon in 1958 A.D., which indicated an extraordinary paticcasamuppāda—Rinpoche would achieve immortal and iridescent light through the hard practice of Dzogchen Mahasandhi Dharma, the faith and compassion of saving all creatures. It is said that three days after Rinpoche was born, Mahasiddha Za•Merg passed by, he pointed to a tent and said to his attendants: "look, a mahasiddha must be visiting the family, as many horses are tied outside of the tent. Let's go inside." However, the attendants didn't see many horses as mahasiddha Za•Merg said. When they got into the tent, they also did not see a mahasiddha in the tent. But they were told that a baby boy was born in the family three days ago. Mahasiddha Za•Merg told the family solemnly: "the child was so unique that he will benefit all sentient beings as soon as he grows up. You should look after him carefully......." Then gave the boy a name – Choeniy Dondok.
Extraordinary wisdom and compassion are Rinpoche's natural endowments. And he showed great interest to the Dharma, Dharma-vessel and even red, yellow colors since childhood. Moreover, he could recite dozens of lections as soon as he could speak. When Wangjr Rinpoche heard about this, he asked Dudjom Rinpoche to do a survey about the boy.
Because of the social upheaval, Rinpoche had been a peasant in Shi Qu. When he was 19 years old, he studied under the guidance of teachers in the A Se Temple and he could skillfully use Tibetan and chant sutras after a few months. And three years later, he went to the Dzogchen Temple Sheri Sen Uparparivena to study Exotoric Buddhism and Esoteric Buddhism. Moreover, when he was 25, he received full ordination under the guidance of Oing De Rinpoche in the Gemong Temple, and then he practiced Dharma with the guidance of Ase Namkha Rinpoche, Ase Choegak Rinpoche. In this way, he got abhisheka of every esoteric-yana, lineage Dharma and enlightening teachings. When he was 29, he was identified as the reincarnation of the fourth Grya Rong Namgr•Jigmey Zomdr Karje Dorje Rinpoche by H.H Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche, Dudjom Rinpoche and Wangjr Rinpoche, and given the name, Jigmey Namkha Norbu Choenyibrpa. When he was 30 years old, many bhadantas, who are from the Dzogchen Temple and other five temples of Yid Lo area, held a solemn enthronement ceremony for him in the Grya Rong Temple. At the same time, he was regarded as the abbot of the Grya Rong Temple and one of the four Dharma kings in Five Sciences of the Dzogchen Temple. After that Rinpoche learned from Wangjr Rinpoche and got his Mahasandhi Dharma empowerments. He stayed secluded for several years to cultivate himself, got excellent awareness and profound mana, and became a Nyingma hierarch. In recent years, Rinpoche is committed to the construction of temples, perfect the sadhana drubtab implements of the Esoteric Buddhism. He built three-layer high Shakyamuni Buddha statues, Shantarakshita, Padmasambhava and Trisong Deutsen statues, Vajrasattva Dorje Sempa statues and pagodas in the A Se temple and in the Grya Rong temple. And he designed all the head wears and cassocks of Yamantaka Dance. To promote Buddhadharma, he also organizes three big Dharma Assemblys of three-month intensive retreat in summer, Yamantaka Puja and Simhavaktra Dakini Puja in the Grya Rong Temple. More importantly, Rinpoche often travels hundreds of miles laboriously, regardless of the heavy work, to the Han nationality area to complete the supplication of the followers. And he has left footprints all over the land such as Beijing, Shanghai, Tianjin, Shandong, Guangzhou and other places. He has been making a great contribution to the spread of Buddhism.
Rinpoche shows infinite compassion to his people and vows to devote many merits to national unity and economic construction of the Kham Region. In Dege county, he has constructed more than 30 kilometers'roads and bridges which connect Ao Dgo town and the Grya Rong Temple. He also has built Grya Rong love elementary schools and the Grya Rong Buddhist College. In Shi Qu county, he has constructed more than 30 kilometers' roads and bridges, which connect Xia Zha area and the A Se Temple, sutra hall, the stupa of Jermed Dorje Rinpoche and Yamantaka Puja and Simhavaktra Dakini Puja stupas, etc.
In order to eliminate disasters in the world, such as wars, famines, and pestilences, Rinpoche uses prevailing auspicious Dharma to address Padmasambhava for the world peace and all beings' health. So from 2004 July 15th to 22nd, he called thousands of eminent lamas of five major sects of Tibetan Buddhism to hold " Padmasambhava Wish-Fulfilling Dharma Assembly" at Manigange town, Yid Lo area, Dege county. The Dharma Assembly was so successful and extraordinary that attracted tens of thousands of believers. So it was not only a good way to expand the Dharma but also a good way to strengthen the cultural exchange between various nations and to promote the unity and economic prosperity in this area. Therefore, Rinpoche vows to hold the Dharma Assembly on July 15th every year, in later 12 years, to 2015. In addition, at the beginning of every August, he will hold the 7-day Smoke offering Dharma Assembly at the foot of Ger Zo Deity Mountain, which is 5 kilometers away from Manigange town.
At present, Rinpoche is busy with Dharma work. However he is still building Buddhist students a main assembly hall to study Buddhist scripts. Hope you all, the initiates, can cooperate with this great project, rejoice in virtue and your merits will never be forgotten.
May our masters, Yidams, Dakinis, Dharmapalas, good deities bless us all peace and good luck!

There are a few things to consider when choosing a pet bed for your best friend, like where you will use the bed and how your pet sleeps. If you plan to use it in the kennel or in the car, you'll want to measure the exact space the bed will fill. Many BRINDLE pet beds are designed to fit standard kennel dimensions. If you are using the bed in an open space, like your living room or bedroom, consider your pet's sleep position. If your pet sleeps curled up, a small, cozy bed is ideal. If your dog spreads out in snoring, care-free sprawl, occasionally chasing dreamland squirrels, you may want to size up to accommodate. A general rule is to measure your dog from nose to rump and add 10 inches. Although no one knows your pet the way you do, these suggestions should help you select the right size bed.

The number of arrests and removals by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) increased in the first three quarters of fiscal year 2018 compared with the same period the previous year, according to new figures released Thursday.
Arrests of undocumented immigrants rose by 17 percent and removals were up by about 9 percent between October 2017 and June 2018. Almost 120,000 undocumented immigrants were arrested, compared with about 102,500 arrests during the same period in 2017.
ICE arrested about 40,000 immigrants who did not have prior criminal records, up from about 24,000 arrests in the same fiscal 2017 period. That follows previously reported trends of ICE officers picking up more individuals who do not have a record of criminal conviction.
The Trump administration has said it will focus its immigration enforcement efforts on individuals with criminal backgrounds.
ICE made about 41,000 total arrests in the third quarter, April through June, up slightly from 40,000 in the second quarter.
"We continue to focus our enforcement efforts on those who pose a public safety threat and those who violate the integrity of our immigration laws," Asher said.
She added that, of the immigrants arrested who didn't have criminal convictions, 61 percent came to ICE's attention "due to criminal charges" and said some may have criminal convictions that ICE can't confirm.
ICE removed about 191,500 individuals during the first three quarters of fiscal year 2018, up from about 175,500 removals over the same period in fiscal year 2017.
Arrests have surged under President Trump, who promised during his campaign to impose a hardline stance against illegal immigration.
ICE has come under increased criticism ever since Trump imposed a "zero tolerance" immigration policy that included referrals for criminal prosecution for anyone caught crossing the border illegally. That resulted in thousands of migrant children being separated from their parents at the U.S. border.
Trump in June signed an executive order to end the policy, but hundreds of children remain separated from their parents.
Some Democrats, including Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.) and House candidate Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, have called for ICE to be abolished. Republicans have argued that abolishing the agency would result in an increase of violence as well as human and drug trafficking.

2) I decided to build the board according to the image at http://moderndevice.com/product/byteseeker-junior-2-1/.
In any event, once I got through these issues, the board works great!
I have one question: What are the dip switches on the V2.1 board to be used for?
Glad you got the board going, it's still being revised. The DIP switches are for future software development. In a performance environment you probably wouldn't want to flip through various sounds with blinking lights as feedback. They could be used for any kind of software development.
I eventually plan to include some of the bit banged music my students and I have made while learning C programming.
I think until you have better internet, ure going to see weird issues pop up now and then. Hopefully ull be able to remedy that eventually.

Faro & The Algarve: Why You Should Consider The South Of Portugal
Portugal might be a small country, but that is no reason to focus only on its capital, Lisbon, or the second biggest city, Porto, when it comes to choosing the location of your business. These two cities are not the only ones where the tech ecosystem is thriving! The South of Portugal also presents not-so-hidden gems in a region called the Algarve — beginning with its capital, Faro.
Famous by its fabulous beaches and bathed by the warm Atlantic ocean, the region is buzzing with tourists all year round, yet that is not the only economic force in the Algarve — with Portugal quickly rising as a startup giant, the tech ecosystem in the South is developing fast, and the region is undoubtedly just as good a choice as the capital.
Cost of Living & Quality Of Life
Faro is the largest city in the South and capital of the Algarve, with a population of roughly 65,000 inhabitants. According to Numbeo, the rent in Faro is 87% lower than in Lisbon, with consumer prices in the city being around 8% less as well. In 2017, Bloom Consulting elaborated the Portugal City Brand Ranking, and Faro was selected as the best city in the Algarve to invest in and to live in, with Albufeira being the best one to visit. Portimão, Tavira and Lagos, all neighbouring towns, were also in the top 5 best cities in the Algarve.
Being a smaller city, Faro is a winner with less commuting problems and a reduced traffic headache as well. But that does not mean that being in the South of Portugal will make your company completely isolated from the rest of the country (or even Europe!).
Due to the touristic importance, the Algarve has the second busiest airport in the country, moving more than 5 million people every year — and only about three hours away from most European capitals, served by low-budget airlines like RyanAir and EasyJet. By train, the city is 3h from Lisbon and under 6h from Porto. There are also plans for a high-speed rail connection between Faro and Huelva (in the Andalucia region, Spain), and the future access to the Lisbon-Madrid line by the connection Faro-Beja-Évora (though the plans for these high-speed rails are currently on hold).
The Algarve is already home to over 200 tech companies, and in 2020, the University of Algarve (based in Faro) will open the gigantic Algarve Tech Hub, a complex with over 3000 sqm that aims to transform the region into the Portuguese 'Silicon Valley', attracting entrepreneurs, investors, and digital nomads. To that, add the advantage of having one of the best fiber optic network coverages in Europe, and the high-level of English proficiency amongst the Portuguese natives. If that's not enough, don't forget government's incentives like Tourism Explorers (the most prominent national program of creation and acceleration of startups in the field of tourism), and the StartUp or Tech Visa.
There's a reason the region is so famous for; a Mediterranean climate with over 300 sunny days a year, and a rainy season lasting only from November to December, making it perfect to enjoy some of the best beaches in Europe (like Marinha Beach, in Lagoa, ranked one of the 100 most beautiful in the world). Nature lovers are also spoiled with hiking choices along the Algarve part of the Vicentine Route, and breathtaking views of coastal cliffs and lakes. For sports lovers, the region is blooming with golf resorts, surf spots, and the omnipresent Portuguese passion: football.
GrowIN Portugal's Move service package offers you guidance and assistance on moving or starting your business in Portugal. Should you need help with the applications — both the StartUp and/or the Tech Visa, don't hesitate and contact us here, or by email: hi[a]growinportugal.com. We can help you Incorporate, Move, and Accelerate your business here in Portugal!

It goes without saying that we are in the midst of what futurist Alvin Toffler called "the rattling and shaking." Well, the point also is, there seems to be no let up in sight, or any end, to the cultural and economic 'seismic' activity that we are all witness to, thanks to a paradigm 'shift' in our lives at work and home. While our age is itself a period of rapid transformation — something that has consistently happened during man's journey through time — the propelling forces driving such a monumental change are far too diverse and complex.
It is precisely at this juncture that our story takes a palpable turn — a twirl into a new reality, one that is blooming and, in turn, transforming health and illness, also organisations and work. As Albert Einstein put it so succinctly, "The significant problems we face today cannot be solved at the same level of thinking we were at when we created them." This exemplifies the fact why leaders and organisations have increasingly woken up to the practical reality of everyday life and realised that their most underutilised resources are 'the minds and hearts' of their people. More so, individuals closest to the customer, client, or patient, and also work, who have most of the answers to cascading questions.
While we are primarily on the 'cusp' of transforming ourselves, there is a powerful, also engaging connect to the whole idea. It is pivotal to our survival and progress — because what is labelled so naturally as the centrepiece for our transformation is a new kind of leader, not the autocrat, but one who is endowed with the courage and vision to challenge and resolve problems. Add to this a logical, step-by-step process for empowerment, you have a new vision for what is possible to the individual, team, or group. You'd call the principle 'enlightened' individual, or organisation, too. A visage that provides the essential tool-kit for taking us into the future of work; it also represents an ever-changing, vastly competitive environment around us.
There has been, of course, far too much rhetoric in every community about the need for visionary leadership, a leader with a vision of the future. The fact actually is — most leaders, who are also individuals, seem to be amused with the implied limitations of that terminology. While it is obvious that merely having a vision is no panacea to bringing about successful change, what is really needed is enlightened leadership: of individuals who not only have the drive, but also the ability to accept ownership for their work as worship, while developing a firm commitment to carrying it through to completion.
The best part, believe it or not, is — enlightened individuals need not sculpt the said vision 'revelation' by themselves. What they would need to possess is a resolute pledge to derive, inspire and expand the dreams of their people — and, empower them to convert that vision into reality. In other words, nurture and encourage others to be open, creative and innovative, and also know what it takes to achieve their shared objectives to bringing the best in them. This is not so much about things to do, but actually a state of being.
Our epoch is a time of enormous change. It represents forces driving our revolution through a host of new and pressing realities of transformation. You get the point. Being able to change and keep pace in a rapidly altering world, therefore, holds the key to our success, provided we are the change agents keyed to capitalise on our greatest gift — talent, zeal and the power to transform.

Lower league German club Lok Leipzig is "in shock" after two youth coaches were caught taking a photo in which a group of young players were performing a Nazi salute. "This is a slap in the face," a statement said.
The fourth-tier club have announced that the the two coaches have been sacked after gathering a group of players from the club's youth wing and taking a photo of them performing the offensive gesture. An official complaint has also been filed with the local police in Leipzig.
"This is a slap in the face of every athlete, club members and people with common sense," said the club's official statement.
The players involved, who were all roughly 16 years old, have been suspended by the club until the end of the season. But that's far from being the only measure the club plans to take.
Lok say they will offer workshops on democracy, antisemitism and violence while LVZ says trips to Holocaust memorial sites are also being discussed.
"We want to live up to our social educational responsibility as a club and work together with the local sports association, the fan project and the young people involved to deal with this incident," Lok President Thomas Löwe said in a statement.
The Sachsen Sports Association (LSB) praised the club for their reaction. "The fact [the club] reacted so quickly shows that they take the topic very seriously," an LSB statement said.
Lok Leipzig recently made headlines in Germany after some of the club's fans spread stickers with Anne Frank wearing the jersey of Leipzig rivals Chemie. The club has been praised by the LSB for the work that has been done in terms of fighting right-wing extremism among the club's fans.


Excellent Hotel.Very relaxing and friendly staff.
No air conditioning. Very warm night difficult to sleep in the heat. There was a problem with the ....We were unable to shower before bed. After we checked out I realised I'd left a bracelet on the bed. I rang the hotel immediately and they said they would send housekeeping to look. I went back at midday to collect the car and asked about the bracelet....but was told nothing had been found. I'm 110% certain it was left in the room. I messaged the hotel again that evening but was told nothing was found.....which I found suprising. The staff we met were pleasant and the room was spotlessly clean with a comfortable bed.
We had an enjoyable stay at this traditional hotel within walking distance of Harrogate Centre and would stay there again.
Excellent hotel Will be back.
The staff were excellent very helpful and friendly. The food was very good and the service also.
Beautiful setting opposite The Stray and within easy walking distance to Harrogate town centre. The breakfast had a wide variety of food on offer and the staff were pleasant and helpful particularly Mr Takis on reception.
We visited the hotel whilst in Harrogate recently. Our experience was very pleasant we had one of the recently refurbished rooms which was both comfortable and clean. The breakfast was very busy but well organised by the gentleman in charge, we were seated quickly and offered tea and coffee almost immediately. The food was good and plentiful. All in all a very pleasant stay.
Stayed just one night - a very comfortable break - free parking and easy walk to the shops, lunch in Betty's, more shopping and then back for a superb meal in Porterhouse restaurant. Recommend 10 oz rump steak - very good value. All in all a very positive stay.
Room 339 nice but every floor board creaked. Cooked breakfast on our second day was stone cold due to the warming plates had not been switched on. Told two members of staff who did not apologise. Did not eat in the restaurant because it was the same menu every night.
Was a bit disappointed that our room was not ready when we arrived at 2.45pm. Web said they were available from 2.30pm quite a few people were waiting in the lounge. Also had booked a family room but they did not do a children's menu and was asked if we wanted bar menu for the children but a lot of there dishes are not really suitable for young children and adult portions to large.
The staff were excellent they made us feel welcome. the room was comfortable the food was delicious. Near to the town I could walk to the shops with a wheelchair. I would return here if I were to come back to Harrogate.
We had an excellent stay. We ate in the restaurant both nights we were there and the food and service was wonderful. We also enjoyed the buffet breakfast. Staff were all very friendly and efficient. Our bedroom was spacious and everywhere in the hotel was spotless.
Excellent all round, Hotel stunning, food in brassier,very good.Staff very attentive, nothing too much trouble.
The service in the restaurant was very poor had to wait a long time for the food and when it arrived wasn't what we had ordered. Rooms were comfortable and clean.
We found the hotel worthy of its 4* rating. The staff were pleasant and efficient and our room was excellent when compared to some hotels with a similar rating. The car parking was good and close to the main entrance which is a bonus when it is raining. The Breakfast was very good with a good selection of both continental and English choices on the buffet. The only negative and hence the 5 rating for the food was the evening meal and in particular the main coarse of which we ordered duck, this was a major mistake as it was probably the worst duck that we have ever eaten, however the starter and dessert were good. Would we stay at the hotel again, most certainly yes but avoid the duck. Thanks to all at the Cedar Court Harrogate.
Excellent food and service, very good value for money. The room was quite big but rather cold turned heater on full but still very cool, may be because the room was very big. Water was not hot enough, had a bath but only tepid.We really enjoyed our stay but will go again when weather is warmer.
Hotel was very good, friendly staff and great food.


MSpectralDynamics by MeldaProduction is a Virtual Effect Audio Plugin. It functions as a VST Plugin, an Audio Units Plugin, a VST 3 Plugin and an AAX Plugin.
MSpectralDynamics can do many things, but mostly it serves as a modern hi-tech replacement for multiband compressors and loudness maximizers. However with features such as custom processing shape it can provide a wide range of effects. Additionally it provides a free-form linear phase equalizer with range from -80dB to 0dB, which you can use to fix issues with your recording.
Unlike Multiband compressors, MSpectralDynamics does not have any bands but works with the entire spectrum instead. It approximates energy located in each frequency and applies the dynamics to it separately. You can perform spectral compression to balance the spectral energy and increase loudness with minimal amount of artifacts. You can apply spectral expansion to excite frequencies and increase sound clarity.
Spectral dynamic processing - other compressors perform dynamic processing in the time-domain, MSpectralDynamics performs the same actions in frequency domain, where you can increase loudness, balance frequencies etc.
Free-form equalizer - a complementary feature of MSpectralDynamics is a free-form linear-phase equalizer with range from -80dB to 0dB editable using MeldaProduction Envelope System (MES).
Power spectrum analyzer - integrated spectrum analyzer gives you accurate view of input and output spectral dynamic profile, gain reduction per frequency and free-form equalizer.
Custom processing shape - by enabling this feature MSpectralDynamics immediately inherits the original processing envelope and you can modify it using the MeldaProduction envelope system (MES) technology, that lets you easily create any dynamic processing shape you like.
Advanced and easy-to-use user interface - you can easily change all values and gain maximal accuracy using textual editing. Smooth visualisation of resulting response with almost unlimited zooming.
Resolution, smoothness, slope, threshold shape - spectral detector provides advanced features defining how MSpectralDynamics analyzes and processes sound with various resulting time and spectral response.
Advanced dynamic detector featuring manual and 4 automatic modes with adjustable limits and speed. Besides standard attack and release parameters MSpectralDynamics provides peak/RMS settings and peak hold feature.
Actual source level indication inside the shape graph - you always know, what dynamic value you can actually expect on the input and output, and what gain-reduction MSpectralDynamics performs.
Adjustable up-sampling 1x-16x to minimize aliasing and get even more clear sound.
3 signal shaping modes, dry/wet control and other supportive parameters that ease your workflow with MSpectralDynamics.
Global preset management - using a title button you can save your settings, which are shared on the computer, so you can easily access them in other songs.
Full automation (except custom shapes).
I'm hoping this review serves valuable to anyone contemplating buying this plugin.
The main use I have for this plugin, and what I discovered this plugin does better than any other compressor plugin I have ever used, is for ducking frequencies. In other words, using it as a side-chain compressor. As of now, Dec 2017, there isn't anything like this except for the stand-alone program called SpectraLayers with a built-in function called Spectral Casting. The downside with Spectral Casting is that it's not real time...so that is a huge downfall. With MSpectralDynamics (MSD for short) you have surgical control of your sound, in real-time, whether or not you're using it in side-chain; however, IMHO its side-chain capability is its most powerful feature.
The price tag is a hefty one though, so it may not be for the amateur or music hobbyist unless you can budget this kind of price but I can now say, after having used it on several mixes now, that it IS my definitive choice for ducking frequencies. NOTHING ELSE EVEN COMES CLOSE. I would go so far to say that if you're a professional mixing or mastering engineer, you SHOULD have this in your toolbox.
It does a lot of other things other than ducking frequencies, but I'm so impressed at how well of a job it does at ducking frequencies, that I'm going to bias this review toward that.
You know that pumping effect you get from side-chaining the kick into the bass...well...you can actually eliminate that artifact with MSD. If you still want that pumping effect, you can dial it in if you're producing Techno but when you want a clean and natural fusion of competing frequencies, this is the definitive choice to get that result.
It has MS mode, and every variation of the combination of manipulating the channels that make up the stereo field. You get both meter and graphical analysis of the audio input and resulting audio output. There is just too much to mention what this plugin does both functionally and creatively that I would suggest downloading it, READ THE MANUAL, then test it rigorously on a mix or two, especially in side-chain for ducking. Then test out the other purposes for this plugin...including its most obvious mode...compressor. Lol.
To wrap things up, although this was a biased review for its purpose most impressive to me, I know it will be an essential tool in every pro studio. A great complement to this plugin is Melda's MMultiAnalyzer for seeing competing frequencies on the same analyzer. Ozone 8 also let's you see competing frequencies, but only two at a time...Melda has no limit AFAIK.
MSpectralDynamics by MeldaProduction is an intense processing plugin that has boundless capabilities. It can be used as a compressor, expander-maximizer, gate, or EQ, but also provides creative flexibility to be used in many other ways. The interface is intuitive and easy to get started via the main page, which features four big knobs, a column of parameters, and an easy-to-read meter. The edit page has advanced features that allow for complete control over the type, shape, and degree of processing.
I extensively demoed MSD for noise removal, repairing, and mastering. Once I realized that I was working with thousands of frequencies across an entire spectrum, (not on specific bands) possibilities opened up. .. I was able to isolate frequencies, draw frequencies, or make global sonic changes across the spectrum. De-essing is a dream! Instead of lowering the volume sibilant constants on a vocal track, you can spectrally compress the high points of the troubling frequency range that contained the vocal hisses. The result was a much cleaner and easier to listen to vocal track, free of lisps. Of course, other specific sounds can be reduced or enhanced, i.e., kick drum, hi hats, or even the entire vocals of a mix (more tricky, of course). Noise reduction, in general, is a strong point of this plugin.
Clean, scalable interface with a basic operations on main page and complex creative options on edit page.
Capable of doing many things by working with specific frequencies.
Smart randomization (great feature found in many Melda plugins).
Safety limiter to prevent spikes/unwanted distortion.
Fantastic sound quality — adjustable up-sampling (1-16x).
Edit page has a moderate learning curve — does a lot, lots to learn.
Would benefit from additional algorithms/profiles/patches for specific processing, i.e., targeting specific frequencies like a bass drum, hi hat/cymbals, etc.
Latency is very minimal, but zero would be a welcome miracle.
MSpectralDynamics can do many, many things —it's an "all-in-one solution." However, there are a few dedicated processing plugins in Melda's bundle that can do specific tasks a little easier. Still, MSD is a powerful, addictive plugin that inspires creative approaches to dynamic processing. Considering all it does, the price is good, and if you are wise enough to buy the bundle — it's a steal! I give MSpectralDynamics a big, fat all-in-one thumb up.


Starz's Outlander - Episode 4.04 "Common Ground"
Issues of race have very much been on the forefront of the story this season. It's the show doing what's necessary in order to tell an American story in the appropriate way. It would be difficult to tell the story of Jamie and Claire coming to America to build a new life together without addressing the concerns of slavery and land owners pushing the natives away from their homes. Sure, the show still struggles in telling stories from those characters of color. It's frequently Jamie and Claire reacting to them with more compassion than their peers do from England. That continues as a major plot concern for Claire and Jamie throughout the "Common Ground." They have found the place to settle. They are beginning to build their home. They have the freedom to do whatever they want as land owners. Jamie has tasked Fergus with finding new settlers who would be a welcome additions to the community that Jamie and Claire hope to build. But right now, it's just Jamie, Claire and Young Ian out in the woods dealing with whatever lurks out there. At times, the threat is very physical like when everyone believes they are being hunted by a dangerous bear. Other times though, the threat comes from those who don't wish to recognize that this land is now owned by Jamie. The English government doesn't care about the natives who lived on this land before they arrived. They just see them as barbarians who don't wish to honor the Crown's rule. That's absolutely horrifying. And yet, Jamie and Claire still believe their lives are in danger whenever a tribe of Cherokee show up. They don't know what to believe. At first, there is a language barrier. Jamie wants to prove that he isn't a threat. He wishes to be allies in the region who can work together to help each other whenever possible. He sees the value in delivering a present to show his good intentions. But the tone of this story still makes the audience nervous about anything possibly destroying this life that Jamie and Claire are hoping to build.
However, the threat that comes to Claire and Jamie's life doesn't come from the present. Instead, it lurks in the future as Roger is able to discover. Claire and Jamie can only imagine what the future might bring. They hope that Brianna will have a fulfilling life without her parents in it. They still talk about her and wonder what her life could possibly be like. The audience has the satisfaction of seeing how the last few years have been for her after she was abandoned by her family. She formed a connection with Roger but wasn't willing to marry him. That showed that she is just as independent a spirit as her parents are. The future remains bright for her as well. She has a world of possibilities open to her. Of course, she is only seen here through Roger's perspective as he tries to win her back. He is able to provide the comfort of knowing that Claire and Jamie were reunited in the 18th century. For these last few years, Brianna never knew what happened to her mother. It's the same agony that Claire and Jamie have felt about each other in the past and continue to feel in the present about their daughter. Moreover, knowledge of the future is very beneficial for the two of them as well. Their decision-making process was helped by Claire knowing that the American revolution will be fought in just a few years. That's very ominous and makes their deal with the governor very problematic. It means that Jamie will be bound by the law and ordered to carry it out or risk losing all of his land in this deal. They don't want to be on the losing side of a revolution again. But that's the deal that they've made. Plus, that's a conflict that is still a ways off in the future. It's years away. The most pressing concern at the moment is building a home in order to live on this land and provide for the family. Settling is the most crucial detail. In that regard, neither Claire nor Jamie know what the future may bring because they are just learning about their neighbors in the region.
And yes, that does include the Cherokee. Up until this point, the Native Americans only existed through stories that John Quincy shared with Young Ian. The young man was so intrigued by these exotic women as well. He had the glint in his eyes towards new adventures. That's why he wants to stay in this new land. He wishes to explore and have a fulfilling life. It's just difficult being away from home with the uncertainty of what this new land may provide. It's a struggle that Marsali is dealing with as well. It's even more depressing for her because she is pregnant and doesn't have her mother to help guide her through life as a new parent. And yet, her letter back home is eventually discovered by Roger who knows with certainty that Jamie and Claire survive this entire ordeal together. That too continues to show that there is a grand tapestry that the overall narrative is playing with. What's gone at the moment may not be missing for very long. There are characters who are always likely to return into the story no matter how improbable it seems. The pacing of the story moves so quickly as well. It may not be long until the Fraser home is built and Marsali gives birth to her child. These characters may just be getting started in establishing their lives in North Carolina. But they are already making quick progress as well as a good impression on those in the area. That stands in stark contrast to the life being offered to them when they were visiting Aunt Jocasta at River Run. That was a community they couldn't stand behind. Here, Jamie and Claire have the potential to befriend the Native Americans in the hopes of being able to share information and live off the land together. That is the outcome at the conclusion of this hour as well. It just takes awhile to get to that point. That also means there is a lot of narrative uncertainty as Jamie once again gets brutalized in order to make the larger point of the story.
The bear that has been roaming around in the woods isn't an animal who has somehow avoided hibernation for the upcoming winter. Instead, it's a man who has assumed the identity of a bear after being banished from the tribe. The Native Americans uphold a strict moral code that he didn't abide by. He was sent into exile and could never be welcomed back. But that also meant that no one in the tribe could kill a man they already believed to be dead. They understand the threat from this creature. It still lurks in the woods and represents a significant threat to whomever is in the area. But they believed that they couldn't do any more than what they had already done. As such, it's up to Jamie to put an end to these attacks. He is the one armed with a gun willing to fire at the creature running at him. It's only then that he realizes it's a man and not a wild bear. But the threat is still very real and dangerous. This creature has already mauled John Quincy. As such, Claire and Young Ian are back home trying to tend to his wounds while standing guard for whatever may be coming for them. It's up to Jamie to defend and protect his family. He succeeds in doing so. He stabs the creature before he does any more damage. That is ultimately the peace offering made to the Cherokee as well. They appreciate this threat being taken care of. It means that their future looks brighter. It means that a connection can be established with Jamie and Claire even though they fear that the white man only brings death to the area. They are afraid of what this new family will do. And yet, their generosity also stands out in this story. Claire and Jamie see themselves as better and more compassionate individuals. It's their responsibility to stand up for those oppressed in this world. It's a nice gesture at the moment. But it still hints at danger in the future especially when the healer of the tribe tells Claire about the vision she's had of her and the healing she is capable of doing.
The Cherokee healer explains to Claire that she is magical because of the journey that she has taken. She is already a profound and powerful healer. She will only get access to better medicine in the future as well. She will become so wise and compassionate. That is all good news. She will live until her hair has gone white. She will still be giving back to the world. However, all of that stands opposed to the news that Roger learns at the conclusion of the hour. He discovers an article clipping that states that Jamie and Claire die in a fire on Fraser's Ridge. The year on the paper is illegible. And so, this could be something that happens in two years. Or it could be something that happens in 10 years. There's no telling how much of a life they will be able to live here. Jamie and Claire hoped to plant down roots and be able to enjoy their lives together for as long as they should life. And now, Roger fears that won't be very long at all. They may once again be condemned to a tragic fate of not being together for more than a few years. That only becomes more scary and ominous with the news that Brianna has traveled to Scotland in the hopes of reuniting with her mother. It's a decision she made but not because of Roger. She didn't inform him of her plans. He doesn't run into her while mulling over what to do with this information that he has come across. He wanted to keep it a secret at first. He didn't want to devastate Brianna with this news while he was also trying to woo her back. But he's still armed with this information. He has it whether he likes it or not. He could potentially use it in order to warn Claire and Jamie in the hopes of potentially changing their fates. That's a mission characters on this show have embarked on before. And yet, there is the tragedy that comes from no one succeeding in that endeavor so far. It may be a hopeless venture. However, it still adds more urgency to Brianna and Roger as characters. That's intensity that seems bound to reunite them with Claire and Jamie in North Carolina.
"Common Ground" was written by Joy Blake and directed by Ben Bolt.
Jamie makes a passing reference to Fergus about him needing to search for Highlanders in the area to settle their new land. He also notes that this is the area that people he served in prison with could have been sent to. That seems like nothing in the moment. And yet, the audience should remember that Murtagh was sent to the colonies. That's how he was separated from Jamie. And so, hope may not be lost about him being gone for good.
A lot of screen time is also devoted to the visual of the Cherokee performing a ceremony. There is the implication that it's to drive out this bad spirit that they believe has possessed the bear. At least, that's how it can be inferred in the moment. But they also have more history with the creature. One that also proves how this moment really just adds to the atmosphere that comes around this mysterious new world that Jamie and Claire are now in.
Claire believed that the skeleton head that she discovered reunited her with Jamie at the exact place where they should plant down roots. It does seem like an absolutely perfect spot for them. However, she now fears that his death could also signal that this is a place they should stay away from because only additional tragedies will occur here. She doesn't know which side to believe. The audience should be curious as to what happened to this time traveler as well.
It's a huge decision for Brianna to want to travel through time to be together with her parents. She has the conviction to do so now because she knows that they are alive and are building a life together. She knows exactly where to find them. But it's also bound to be a treacherous journey. She may think that she's ready but she's not. Moreover, it's lame how more time isn't devoted to her making this decision. If the show did that though, it would rob the surprise of that final moment with Roger.
Roger has to reach out to the author of the book that Brianna got him in order to find the information that proves that Jamie and Claire survived and were reunited. And yet, the letter that states their deaths is already at the house that he has known for many years. Sure, it has new owners now who are friends with him. But he only gets this letter after his friend reveals that she has heard everything he has said to Brianna about the existence of time travel and its impact on her family.


The female character looks like the girl next door character.
I like the idea of girls next door who have skills like the character.
She is a beauty with those daisy dukes.
no dress code- let the girl work!
I hate to be a party pooper but the light tone is not that hot as #1.
Party pooper is a jab at some football fans in Louisiana who chant "Who Dat" since a football game to them is more important than going bowling and getting some exercise and fun.
This image really does her some ray of sunshine.
I see what you mean that the background does kill off the good colors of the artwork.
but how did my parents know?
This is great. I like everything in this picture.
Natural beauty, the best kind.
Number 4 is in my opinion best by far.
I think they are all good but my favourite is type 3, Strong but not overdone.
Do you do all your drawings on a computer straight on,? I know there are some tools that you draw on like a painting but goes directly on a computer. I have some expensive hardware for that in the Apple store in Ubertec in Parnell.
I have heard of that but yet to try it one day.
They are all great and I really love her face!
The darker tone to me suits the mood of a garage setting handy lady lol.
A great look on this one as always Alex. Suspenders are a nice touch.
I like that slightly "nonchalant"/confident kinda look on her face.
Could we change it to everytime she sez "Oh no!"?
The character is dressed to work. Girl next door type.
That is a good idea since some females who had their fame in the sports world claimed that they were tomboys are teens.
females today are different that my childhood.

Mustangs end season on high note
Larry Banman
Sky-Hi News
Kremmling, CO Colorado
The game felt closer than the 48-12 score that registered on the scoreboard at Eagle Valley High School where the West Grand Mustangs defeated Vail Christian to bring an end to the regular season.
Vail Christian stopped the initial drive by the Mustangs and then scored on a 66-yard touchdown pass to take an early 6-0 lead.
On the ensuing series for West Grand, the Saints stopped the Mustangs' Travis Gore for no gain on a fourth-and-one play to retake possession of the ball in good field position.
What followed was a series of plays that turned around what could have been an ugly game for the Mustangs. West Grand had already clinched first place in the league, but a loss to Vail Christian would have been a tough way to end the regular season and wouldn't have been the momentum builder every team hopes for heading into the playoffs.
First, Tim Ritschard intercepted a Vail Christian pass to stop a Saints drive. After giving the ball back to the Saints on a fumble, the Mustangs seized the moment, the ball and, most importantly, the lead when defensive lineman Zach Ahrens created a turnover. Ahrens hit the Vail quarterback just as he released the ball. The pigskin floated into the arms of an opportunistic Auztin Ramirez who then galloped 40 yards for the score. Gore then hit Ritschard for an 8-6 lead that West Grand never relinquished.
On the next series, Gore intercepted a Vail Christian pass and returned it 66 yards for a score.
Logan Cummings then caused a fumble on the ensuing kickoff that was recovered by West Grand's Luke Roderick. On the next play Gore found Luke Miller for a 30-yard score. The two-point PAT on a Cummings run gave the Mustangs a 22-6 lead.
Literally within minutes, West Grand went from being down six points to holding a two-touchdown lead.
After exchanging possessions, Vail Christian embarked on a long drive that ended when Lloyd Coleman of West Grand blocked a field goal attempt by the Saints.
Taking advantage of a Vail Christian penalty on the next possession, the Mustangs scored on a long drive of their own that culminated in a 22-yard pass for a touchdown from Gore to Ritschard. Gore converted the two-point PAT on a running play to give West Grand a 30-6 lead.
Vail Christian nearly scored on the last play of the half on a 42-yard hook-and-ladder play. Fortunately, Ritschard made the touchdown-saving tackle.
In the second half, the Mustangs defense rose up and made several plays to keep the Saints at bay. Cummings, Ramirez, Coleman and Chase Hill all recorded sacks.
With five minutes left in the third quarter, Cummings scored on a five-yard run.
After the teams exchanged punts, West Grand scored again when Gore connected with Ritschard for an 89-yard pass play.
With freshman Nick Ritschard playing quarterback, the Mustangs scored one more touchdown. After a drive that featured a 33-yard run by Cummings and a completed pass from Nick Ritschard to his brother Tim Ritschard, brother Nick scored on a 26-yard run. That increased the score to 48-6 and triggered a running clock.
On the final play of the game, Vail Christian scored on a 21-yard pass play.
For the first time this year, somebody other than Gore led the team in rushing. Cummings had 76 yards on seven carries. Gore ran for 56 yards, Hill was credited with 26 rushing yards and Nick Ritschard had 32 yards rushing.
Gore completed 10 of 19 passes for 211 yards, three touchdowns, one PAT and one interception.
Tim Ritschard had five catches for 137 yards, two touchdowns and one PAT. He also had a good day punting the ball. For the season, the senior is averaging more than 40 yards per punt.
This Saturday, the West Grand Mustangs will host Sedgwick County in the first round of postseason play. Sedgwich County finished in fourth place in the tough Plains Division of the Central League.
The game, which is scheduled for a 1 p.m. start, is expected to be a hard-fought contest. The three teams that finished ahead of Sedgwick County are rated in the top five in the state of Colorado. They are Caliche (2), Dayspring Christian (4) and Merino (5).
Sedgwick features an attack that has been more geared toward running with two seniors backs who are quick and fast. The team is on the young side and is quarterbacked by a freshman. The lineman are big and play a physical style that one sideline pundit has compared to the Justice team that West Grand played earlier in the season.

University of Worcester wins prestigious award for dementia work
By Mike Maloney
THE University of Worcester has been awarded for its work helping people with dementia.
It won the Outstanding Contribution to the Local Community title in the coveted Times Higher Education Awards.
It was recognised for its Association for Dementia Studies' work to establish and develop meeting centres to support people living with dementia.
It also saved the centres from closure when funding ended.
Professor Dawn Brooker, director of the Association for Dementia Studies, said: "Our work on meeting centres has been a sustained team effort dating back to 2014, incorporating true partnership working between the Association for Dementia Studies at the University, international colleagues from many countries, national charities, health and care providers and local people determined to make a difference to the lives of those affected by dementia. "
The association started work to set up two pilot meeting centres, in Droitwich and Leominster, for people with dementia, offering them a place to talk to others, to get help and have fun.
But 2017-18 was a crunch point for the project as research funding ended, bringing the prospect of closure for centres that users had come to see as a lifeline.
The association helped them become charities so they could continue their work and secured £600,000 lottery funding which created a National Reference Group.
There are now eight dementia meeting centres operating across the UK.
And there are a further 20 expressions of interest.
The judges said Worcester's meeting centres were "innovative, practical and the result of a genuine partnership between a research centre and local help points".
It described the association as a "truly dedicated group who stepped in decisively when funding was at risk".

SANTA MONICA — It has been the biggest upset of the 2018 FIFA World Cup as the once winless South claimed its first win against the Germans, an embarrassing result for the 2014 World Champions. South Korea defeated Germany 2-0 Wednesday morning, eliminating the Germans from the World Cup.
It was heartbreaking results for Germany. The reigning World Cup champions watched their chances slip past in the final minutes of the game. With six minutes of added time, South Korea took full advantage of it. In the 92nd minute, Kim Young-gwon rebounded a deflected shot and chipped it over German goalkeeper Manuel Neuer. German pushed everyone forward in effort to get the last minute goal, but Four minutes later, Neuer turned over the ball, allowing Korea to long ball it to a waiting forward who nudged the ball into the wide open goal.
Despite South Korea's two goals, Germany controlled the game. The Germans claimed nearly 80 percent of the possession which lead to its huge number of shots on the night. The reigning championships went 6 for 28 but could never find a way to get the ball in the goal.
You couldn't tell this was a must-win game for Germany by its performance Wednesday. The Germans produced a sloppy performance in the first half. While they spent a large amount of time on the South Korean half, Germany sat on the ball, creating few opportunities. While it managed to get a few great shots off, the Germans had recorded only four shots with only one on target after 36 minutes, matching South Korea's shooting stats. It was the first time since 1986, Germany headed to the locker room without the lead in the a World Cup group stage match.
South Korea was also knocked out of the cup. Mexico and Sweden move on to the round of 16, leading Group F with six points each.

Exploring the Roots of the Vine: The History and Archaeology of the Earliest Wines
Stephen Batiuk
7:00 PM – 9:00 PM CDT
Breasted Hall
Oriental Institute
Wine is one of the most commonly enjoyed and alcoholic beverages in the modern world. But what is the antiquity and history of this otherworldly drink? When and how was it first developed? How did it spread from its point of origin? Dr. Stephen Batiuk will show how new archaeological field work and bio-molecular chemistry and genetics are helping unlock this story, pushing its origins back to the Neolithic period and to the region of Caucasia, modern Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan, and how one of our earliest and best documented examples of an ancient migration probably led to the spread of wine and wine culture across the Ancient Near East, and then eventually across the rest of the Mediterranean World.
This lecture will be the last lecture to take place in Breastd Hall before renovations begin. A catered reception will follow.

Agree. It will be interesting to see if we can become a free agent destination that soon.
He didn't even need to say it himself. Trae's growth has been on full display for everyone who watches him play consistently and isn't just looking for an excuse to criticize him.
Trae is clearly one of the best point guards to come into the NBA in a while. Not many point guards have the ability to initiate the offense like he can plus score in several ways. The ones that do end up being stars.
To be honest, Trae is already a star.
He will become an all-star in due time if he keeps it up and continues to progress.
Despite the losing effort, Trae Young had 30 points and 10 assists last night! Just look at his average 22.0 points and 9.1 assists per game. All he has to do now is put on some weight and become a better rebounder. I love how the mainstream media is overhyping Luka Donic while Trae isn't getting the respect. Continue to prove the doubters wrong. Never go by the FIRST year, it's always continuity and how you finish. The mainstream media is underestimating the historical rookie stats Trae Young is doing what hasn't been done with rookies in years, and a lot of those rookies ended up getting their teams to the NBA Finals at least one time in their careers or won one. If we can build as a young team and get Anthony Edwards from Atlanta to come to the Hawks after his career with the DAWGS, then our franchise is set for the future for sure.
dont beleive me, go look those players rookie stats. By The way Allen Iversons career numbers are unreal.
How do the Hawks get Anthony Edwards to just come to the Hawks after his career with the Dawgs?
He'll most likely put his name in the 2020 draft after a one and done season in Athens.
Trae Young is averaging 20.8 PPG, 9.3 APG on 39.5% shooting and 40% from 3 in February.
And some think Trae was a waste! The young man is ballin right now!!
Plus we get what could be a Top 10 pick. We won that trade. Fa sho.
Well I think we got a glimpse of Trae's ceiling tonight. Superstar potential. Him plus a possible Top 10 pick from DAL? Yeah give me that. I'm pretty much convinced we won that trade.
Yeah, the better Trae plays, the more Schlenk is grinning, and the more drinks Mark Cuban is having realizing that he got robbed on draft day.
Last night's game was a reflection of what his overall game looks like when his three point shot is falling. He put up 36 points on Houston while the while nba world was looking for Harden to extend his 30 ppg streak. What they got was a whole lot of Trae!
Trae's game is amazing. Due to his size limitations, everything he does is more difficult t pull off - driving to the basket, getting his jump shot off, etc. Trae is so quick and his handle so good that he can just punish teams when hitting on all cylinders.
The potential and flashes were always there, but I think the light is coming on for Trae. Dude just makes plays. He did it in Oklahoma, and he's doing it now.
This dude almost had a 36 point triple double in a win! If you were not convinced before, what's your excuse now?

Russian Far East's Population Decline Spurred by Poor Infrastructure
Russian President Vladimir Putin has declared that the development of the country's Far East was a national priority for the 21st century. However, Russian authorities seem to have a more important undeclared priority: all-out savings for the sake of accumulating foreign exchange reserves, Nezavisimaya Gazeta writes.
According to the newspaper, this undeclared primacy affects the fate of the Far East's people, who continue to leave the region. More than two-thirds of the region had been left without the possibility of air travel, the report said. Just one-sixth of all airports and landing sites that had operated during the Soviet era have been kept in use in the Far East today.
According to Nezavisimaya Gazeta, it is not surprising that with such deteriorating infrastructure, the population of the Russian Far East continues to fall. The details of the "national priority development" project were stated at a meeting of Security Council Secretary Nikolai Patrushev with federal and regional officials.
Meanwhile, officials of the Ministry for Development of the Russian Far East said that together with the Ministry of Transport, they are "working on ways to increase subsidies for air transportation to the Far East." Proposals have already been drawn up for the prime minister to boost subsidizing the region's air transportation program by 700 million rubles ($11 million), the Ministry told the newspaper.
"The decline of the population in the Far East is really an unfortunate reality. In this regard, there is a need to reassess the measures to support the economy of the region, which the government is currently using. These measures do not work in full and still do not meet expectations," Head of the department of state regulation of economics at RANEPA Vladimir Klimanov told the newspaper.
