The Lasting Campaign for Black Male Achievement
By Ken Zimmerman
For a society to be truly open, it must ensure that all of its members have full and equal access to economic, social, and political opportunities. A core element of our work at the Open Society Foundations is to challenge and confront those barriers that undermine such opportunities—particularly for communities that are historically marginalized and vulnerable.
Over six years ago, the Open Society Foundations expanded its historic support for racial justice in the United States by initiating an effort specifically targeted at the challenges confronting black men and boys: the Campaign for Black Male Achievement (CBMA). The reason was simple: the United States cannot realize its aspirations as a society without tackling head-on its legacy that limits the potential of African American males.
Over the intervening years, CBMA has led us forward, and we are excited to announce that the campaign will now spin off to continue its work as an independent organization in a new and enhanced form.
When CBMA first launched, there was precious little philanthropy dedicated specifically to addressing the special racial and gender barriers preventing boys and men of color from achieving their economic, political, educational, and social potential. In recent years, a number of foundations have become joint leaders through efforts, such as the California Endowment's Sons and Brothers campaign, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation's Forward Promise initiative, and the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation's Black Male Engagement work, among others.
Today, in part due to CBMA's efforts, there is an unprecedented number of organizations dedicated to carrying this banner—including the recently formed Executives' Alliance to Expand Opportunities for Boys and Men of Color, a coalition of more than 40 foundations (including the Open Society Foundations, which continues to play a leadership role on the steering committee). And earlier this year, President Obama announced the My Brother's Keeper initiative, putting black male achievement on an even more prominent platform for the remainder of this administration and beyond.
The work done by CBMA's leaders, Shawn Dove and Rashid Shabazz, has helped start to change the narrative—and create a black male achievement movement in this country. This has involved identifying and lifting up innovators and building and expanding a network of leaders and organizations dedicated to this cause. By spinning off as a standalone organization this January—a step first suggested by Shawn several years ago—CBMA is poised to move to the next level.
Open Society has spun off more than 300 programs in its history. As our president Chris Stone has said, "The cause of justice … is strengthened by the combined power" of the parent organization and its new progeny. We certainly believe that will be the case with CBMA.
The new entity has a new web address. But it will keep the same name, and the same focus: to help foster the growth, sustainability, and impact of organizations working to improve the lives of black boys and men. And it will incorporate the work of the Institute for Black Male Achievement, which was created in late 2012 with a grant of $4 million from Open Society and eight funding partners.
Tonya Allen, CEO of the Skillman Foundation, will serve as CBMA's founding board chair, and will be joined on the board by Geoffrey Canada, founder of the Harlem Children's Zone and board member of Open Society's U.S. Programs; William C. Bell, CEO of the Casey Family Programs; and Wendell Pritchett, interim dean of the University of Pennsylvania Law School. The Silicon Valley Community Foundation will serve as CBMA's fiscal sponsor.
We send Shawn and Rashid on the next leg of their journey with a new grant of $10 million over the next five years. This substantial grant is meant to convey our confidence in their endeavor; we look forward to collaborating further with CBMA as they get underway.
But the grant is also an indication of our ongoing commitment to racial justice, a component of virtually all the U.S. work we do—including our efforts to end mass incarceration, to reform policing and the juvenile justice system, to preserve and protect voting rights, to close the racial wealth gap, and to advocate for alternatives to harsh school disciplinary policies.
This month we invested $2.5 million to support frontline community groups in Ferguson, as well as develop a national database on the police use of force—both to better identify problematic practices and examples of effective, responsive, and accountable policing.
We are excited about CBMA's future as a vital aspect of our continued work in this area. We are proud of the work they have started and look forward to the opportunities ahead for the newest member of our extended family.

Until January 2018, Ken Zimmerman was the director of U.S. Programs.


A former vice president of the Ghana Football Association, George Afriyie has charged Coach Kwesi Appiah to parade a squad capable of winning this year's Africa Cup of Nations title in Egypt.
The Black Stars will be hoping to end the country's trophy drought after winning the ultimate in 1982.
The former Black Stars management committee chairman who was present at the draw spoke on the chances of the team and what the coach must do to win the title.
"Bring up a squad that is realistic and capable of winning the AFCON," he said.
"He must do a lot of monitoring to select these players," he added.
The Okyeman Planners life financier who is vying for the Ghana FA top seat led the Black Stars to place second in the 2015 AFCON as Black Stars management committee chairman in 2015 losing Ivory Coast on penalties.
The Black Stars have been paired alongside defending champions Cameroon, Benin and Guinea-Bissau in Group F.
The four-time African champions will begin their campaign against Benin on June 25 at the Ismailia Sports Stadium.

Germany confirms it will send Leopard 2 tanks to Ukraine
By Zoe Bell 25 January 2023, 10:42
Germany has confirmed it will send Leopard 2 tanks to Ukraine to support the fight against Russia.
Chancellor Olaf Scholz said on Wednesday Germany is "acting in close co-ordination" with its allies.
In a statement, the government said it will initially provide Ukraine with one company of Leopard 2 A6 tanks, which comprises 14 vehicles, from its own stocks.
The goal is to provide Ukraine with a total of two battalions together with other countries.
Germany will also approve the re-export of the tanks by other countries.
It comes after weeks of hesitation – which saw growing impatience among the country's allies.
The long-awaited decision follows US officials saying a preliminary agreement has been struck for the United States to send M1 Abrams tanks to help Kyiv push back Russian forces entrenched in the east almost a year since the start of the war.
Chancellor Olaf Scholz had said any move to provide Ukraine with powerful Leopard 2 tanks would need to be closely co-ordinated with Germany's allies, chiefly the United States.
By getting Washington to commit some of its own tanks, Berlin hopes to spread the risk of any backlash from Russia.
Prime Minister Rishi Sunak said Germany made the "right decision" to send the tanks, and the move would bolster Ukraine's "defensive firepower".

The UK had already become the first Western nation to promise main battle tanks, with around 14 Challenger 2s pledged by Mr Sunak.
In response to Germany's announcement, Sunak said: "The right decision by Nato allies and friends to send main battle tanks to Ukraine.
"Alongside Challenger 2s, they will strengthen Ukraine's defensive firepower.
"Together, we are accelerating our efforts to ensure Ukraine wins this war and secures a lasting peace."

Rezeption

Erfolg
B4.DA.$$ verkaufte sich in der ersten Woche 53.990 Mal in den Vereinigten Staaten. Damit konnte der Rapper Rang 5 der US-amerikanischen Billboard 200 erreichen. In Neuseeland positionierte sich das Album auf Rang 11 und in Australien auf Rang 17. Auch in einigen europäischen Staaten konnte der Rapper Erfolge feiern. So belegte B4.DA.$$ Platz 24 in der Schweiz, Platz 36 in Norwegen, Platz 57 in Frankreich und Platz 69 in den Niederlanden.

Kritik
Die E-Zine Laut.de bewertete B4.DA.$$ mit vier von möglichen fünf Punkten. Aus Sicht des Redakteurs David Maurer sei das Album ein "großartiges Debüt", das "erwartungsgemäß voller Boom Bap-Nostalgie und Golden Era-Referenzen" stecke. B4.DA.$$ sei zwar "mit Sicherheit kein modernes 'Illmatic'", jedoch beweise Bada$$ "auf eindrucksvolle Weise, dass man nicht nur auf neuen Wegen, sondern auch auf vermeintlich abgetrampelten Pfaden einen verdammt guten Lauf hinlegen" könne. Das Lied Paper Trail$ sei laut Maurer "textlich sicherlich eines der stärksten Stücke des Albums." So erzähle der Rapper "mit geschickten Zeilen von den vielen Problemen, die das schnelle Geld mit sich gebracht" habe und zitiere dabei den Wu-Tang Clan und J. Cole. Mit Piece Of Mind sei eine Hommage an Nas' One Love enthalten. Das Stück Curry Chicken wird als "Konstrukt aus 90er-Referenzen, markanter Stimme, Mehrfachreimen und Killer-Flow" charakterisiert.

Bestenliste
In der Liste der besten "Hip Hop-Alben des Jahres" 2015 von Laut.de wurde B4.DA.$$ auf Rang 25 platziert. Aus Sicht der Redaktion habe ein 20-Jähriger selten "so gereift und abgeklärt" geklungen. Joey Bada$$ übersetze "selbst drei Jahre nach seinem gefeierten '1999'-Mixtape [wie] kaum ein anderer Rapper den Flavor der 90s so stilsicher ins Jetzt."

James Newman plays the title character, a cold blooded killer who is hired by Colonel Steward to protect a wagon train and its settlers through territory rife with bloodthirsty outlaws. While wanted for murder, Johnny works for the Colonel and also tries to find time to avenge the death of his lover, Rosita, Rosalba Neri.
Junk director Emimmo Salvi directs this cheap and bizarre spy western structured as a peplum down to some of the sets and also the sensual Monika Brugger doing her best Chelo Alonso impersonation during an extended dancing sequence around a campfire.
Salvi's western is a watchable movie and passes muster as disposable high calorie filler with a wagon load of action and even some spy movie machinations such as when the Colonel tells Johnny to memorize his orders and destroy them. Furthermore, Brugger plays a female spy whom Johnny is supposed to team up with to locate detonators for a fort full of dynamite. However, the score is unmemorable and occasionally sounds like it would fit better in a Z grade sci fi picture.
Rosalba Neri gets the shaft again and suffers an indignity similar to her brevity in Arizona Colt, 1966. Fernando Sancho plays against type as an American army Colonel who captures Johnny and forces him to assist in his plans lest he be hanged for murder. There's a lot going on here and the film operates as brain dead fun on the level of Salvi's earlier films. Recommended for its curious qualities alone as it offers little else but mild, yet diverting amusement and thrills.


"ReThink Disposable has been a huge success for Doc's of the Bay. The recommendations are working fabulously and we're seeing benefits well beyond the $2,000 annual savings.

Tesla Motors designs and manufactures electric vehicles. At their plant in Fremont they build the Model S, an all electric sedan that seats up to 7 people and was Motor Trend's 2013 Car of the Year. The car company worked closely with StopWaste's Use Reusables program to switch to reusable windshield racks, a project that eliminates about 100 tons of cardboard waste a year.
VF Outdoor, a division of VF Corp. that focuses on outdoor and athletic apparel, recently moved three of its leading brands, JanSport, lucy and The North Face, to a new headquarters in Alameda. While moving more than 470 employees, the company avoided using an estimated 11,000 cardboard boxes needed for the move by renting reusable moving crates instead.
Ghirardelli Chocolate Company replaced cardboard boxes with a fleet of reusable totes for internal distribution of its chocolate products. Besides preventing 350 tons of soiled cardboard waste each year, this eliminates the purchasing cost for cardboard boxes as well as disposal fees, and even reduces chocolate breakage.


Tulsishyam Mandir is dedicated to Lord Krishna and is several hundred years old. It is a major tourist destination and pilgrim centre. It is located in the heart of GIR National Park, in Junagadh District of Gujarat. It is situated at 170 km from Junagadh and 45 km from Diu, on the way to Una via Dhari. Prime attraction is the medicinal hot water spring. The water is curative for people suffering from gout and rheumatism.
This temple is said to be seven hundred years old. One need to climb around 100 steep step to reach up to this temple of Rukshmanidevi. Rukshmani was the chief wife of Lord Krishna. The statue of Rukshmani is made of black marble and is around 2 feet tall. The small statue of Lord Krishna is also kept near the main statue of Rukshmanidevi. The temple offers very peaceful environment and the tourists love to sit here quietly for some time. There are three hot springs at Tulsishyam. The first spring is having warm water. The second one is having slightly hot water. But the third one is having the boiling water. The steam can be seen coming out of the water from this third spring. The visitors take bath in these water springs to get rid of their skin diseases. The temple has more than 200 cows in the Gaushala. One can also see the lions and other wild life while travelling through Jungle.
It is said that Lord Krishna conquered a demon known as "Tul", hence this place is known as Tulsishyam. A yearly fair is also organized here in the month of September. In the month of October / November, a celebration takes place to commemorate the marriage of Lord Vishnu with Sati Vrinda, and the celebration is known as 'Tulsivivah'.
Tulsishyam is located at a distance of 138 kms from Junagadh, which is well connected with road and railways.

Tehran warns U.S. Middle East bases are 'within reach' of Iranian missiles
MENAAnglo 5Headline News
By Paul Antonopoulos Last updated Jul 10, 2019
TEHRAN – Iranian Minister of Cultural and Social Affairs Hossein Nejat has warned that Iran could destroy US aircraft carriers in the Gulf if the United States attacks Iran.
"US bases are within range of our missiles. Our missiles will destroy their aircraft carriers if they make a mistake," Nejat warned on Tuesday, adding that "Americans are well aware of the consequences of a military confrontation with Iran."
The minister also said that the war is not in the "Trump agenda" and that the US president wants to "drag Tehran to negotiate over maximum pressure."
"Iran has put Israel's security at risk and is now disturbing Saudi Arabia, America and Israel. Tehran is fighting the war at the borders of the enemy and not at its borders," continued Nejat.
The statement comes after remarks by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who warned that Iran is within reach of Israeli F-35 fighters.
"Iran has recently threatened to destroy Israel. It should remember that these planes can reach anywhere in the Middle East, including Iran, and certainly Syria," Netanyahu said at Israeli Air Force base on Tuesday.
The statement by the top Israeli official came a week after Mojtaba Zolnour, chairman of the Iranian parliament's National Security and Foreign Policy Committee, said that if the United States attacks Iran, "Israel will have only half an hour to live."
Unilateral exit of the Iranian agreement
Tensions between Washington and Tehran have been exacerbated since May 2018, when the United States announced the departure of the Iranian nuclear agreement of 2015, despite Iran's agreement to not develop nuclear weapons, as evidenced by the International Atomic Energy Agency.
The US withdrawal prompted the other signatories to the agreement, including Russia, China and several European powers, to make efforts to try to recover the treaty.
After the US unilateral withdrawal, the United States re-instituted a series of sanctions that had been lifted against Iran under the nuclear agreement. In addition, Washington has also introduced new sanctions against Tehran.

Q: Mapping Firebase streams in flutter I am learning flutter mostly by reading posts here and watching YouTube videos but it seems I have reached the point where the videos don't cover what I need so I am coming here to get help.
I am trying to understand Streams, Firebase, and mapping.
I need to create a StreamProvider using Riverpod. This is the code I am using to create the StreamProvider:
final trxnStreamProvider = StreamProvider.autoDispose<List<Trxns>>((ref) {
  final stream = firestoreService.getAgencyTrxns();
  return stream.map((snapshot) => snapshot.docs.map((doc) =>
      Trxns.fromFirestore(doc.data)).toList());
});

I get the stream from Firebase in this code:
  Stream<QuerySnapshot> getAgencyTrxns() async* {
    yield* FirebaseFirestore.instance
        .collection('agency').doc(globals.agencyId)
        .collection('trxns')
        .where('trxnStatus', isNotEqualTo: 'Closed')
        .snapshots();
  }

So, I get a QuerySnapshot from Firebase according to the snippet above. This works well.
Then, this QuerySnapshot gets returned to the "stream" variable in the first code snippet where I am creating the StreamProvider.
The QuerySnapshot variable, "stream", is then mapped to <List> and returned to trxnStreamProvider by this code.
return stream.map((snapshot) => snapshot.docs.map((doc) =>
          Trxns.fromFirestore(doc.data)).toList());

I am getting an error at "doc.data" stating: The argument type 'Object? Function()' can't be assigned to the parameter type 'Map<String, dynamic>'.
I am trying to understand what exactly what this line of code is doing and I need your help.
return stream.map((snapshot) => snapshot.docs.map((doc) =>
          Trxns.fromFirestore(doc.data)).toList());

Let me tell you what I think it is doing:

*

*The variable stream has a method called "map" and is called to map the QuerySnapshot to a list. I'm not sure where "snapshot" comes from but I think it is the QuerySnapshot returned from Firebase with this call, firestoreService.getAgencyTrxns().

*The QuerySnapshot consists of documents contained in the Firebase collection, "trxns". This explains snapshot.docs and now we want to map each of these docs using the snapshot.docs.map() method to a list. I am passing each individual doc to be mapped using this code: snapshot.docs.map(doc).

*I am using the method, Trxns.fromFirestore(doc.data)).toList(), to map the elements contained in the document to a list. The type of list that will be returned will be Map<String, dynamic> (I think).
Here is the mapping code:
Trxns.fromFirestore(Map<String, dynamic> firestore)
      : trxnId = firestore['trxnId'],
        agentId = firestore['agentId'],
        agencyId = firestore['agencyId'];

In the returned map would look something like this:
trxnId: somevalue,
agentId: somevalue,
agencyId: somevalue;
Is this correct?
These are all members of the Trxns class so it now has the form of a <List>. Is this correct?
So, "doc.data" is simply a snapshot of one of the documents in the QuerySnapshot, correct?
Why am I getting the error on "doc.data"?

A: Change it to this, and cast it as a Map:
return stream.map((snapshot) => snapshot.docs.map((doc) =>
Trxns.fromFirestore(doc.data() as Map<String, dynamic>)).toList());

To access the actual Map inside your doc, you need to use data() to get all the keys, or you can use .get('name') for example to get the specific key called name in your document.

So, "doc.data" is simply a snapshot of one of the documents in the QuerySnapshot, correct?

Correct, QuerySnapshot is a list of DocumentSnapshots, and they are held together in the object named docs. You can perform list operations on docs such as length, and as you did docs.map.
The only thing you missed was invoking the data function. When you type doc.data, here think of data as a reference to a function which extracts the {key:value} pairs from your document, it contains all the logic behind the scenes written by Firebase, but if you stop there without using the (), this function is not called.
So just fixing the type by using doc.data(), should solve your issue.

Q: Scrolling in OpenGL ES 1.1 I'm developing a 2D side-scrolling game.I have a tiled bitmap for background with size 2400x480.How can i scroll this bitmap?
I know that i can do it with following code:
for(int i=0;i<100;i++)
draw(bitmap,2400*i,480);

So it will scroll bitmap for 240000 pixels.
But i don't want to draw images which stays out of screen(with size 800x480).
How can i render scrolling tile?How can i give velocity to it?(For parallax scrolling after normal scrolling)

A: The following code does not use two quads, but one quad, and adapts the texture coordinates accordingly. Please note that I stripped all texture handling code. The projection matrix solely contains glOrthof(0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f, -1.0f, 1.0f);. Quad2D defines a quad whose tex coords can be animated using updateTexCoords:
static class Quad2D {
    public Quad2D() {
        /* SNIP create buffers */
        float[] coords = { 1.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f, };
        mFVertexBuffer.put(coords);
        float[] texs = { 1.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, };
        mTexBuffer.put(texs);
        /* SNIP reposition buffer indices */
    }

    public void updateTexCoords(float t) {
        t = t % 1.0f;
        mTexBuffer.put(0, 0.33f+t);
        mTexBuffer.put(2, 0.0f+t);
        mTexBuffer.put(4, 0.33f+t);
        mTexBuffer.put(6, 0.0f+t);
    }

    public void draw(GL10 gl) {
        glVertexPointer(2, GL_FLOAT, 0, mFVertexBuffer);
        glTexCoordPointer(2, GL_FLOAT, 0, mTexBuffer);
        glDrawArrays(GL_TRIANGLE_STRIP, 0, 4);
    }
    /* SNIP members */
}

Now how to call updateTexCoords? Inside onDrawFrame, put the following code:
    long time = SystemClock.uptimeMillis() % 3000L;
    float velocity = 1.0f / 3000.0f;
    float offset = time * velocity;
    mQuad.updateTexCoords(offset);

Since the texture coordinates go beyond 1.0f, the texture wrap for the S coordinate must be set to GL_REPEAT.

A: If you are ok working with shaders, we can have a cleaner and may be more efficient way of doing this.
Create a VBO with a quad covering the whole screen. The witdth and height should be 800 and 480 respectively.
then create your vertex shader as:
attribute vec4 vPos;
uniform int shift;
varying mediump vec2 fTexCoord;
void main(void){
   gl_Position = vPos;
   fTexCoord = vec2((vPos.x-shift)/800.0, vPos.y/480.0);//this logic might change slightly based on which quadarnt you choose.
}

The fragment shader would be something like:
precision mediump float;
uniform sampler2D texture;
varying mediump vec2 fTexCoord;
void main(void){
   gl_FragColor = texture2D(texture, fTexCoord);
}

and you are done.
To scroll just set the uniform value using "glUniformX()" apis.

Home / Spiritual Practices / Giving Back
Program 4 • 29 mins
https://www.humanmedia.org/site/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/4_giving_back.mp3
In this episode of Humankind, we hear from people, some wealthy, some of very modest means, who have given unusually careful thought to the hows and whys of charitable giving. Hear how a young Boston couple started a tiny philanthropy as a way of giving back to their community. Listen also to an older husband and wife who have methodically tithed their wealth for their entire marriage. And consider the provocative comments of a highly successful investor who has analyzed the process of calculating how much we can spare for charitable purposes. A very beautiful testament to the joys of giving, this episode will have you thinking and talking about that very real human quality: charity.
How can we judge when and to whom charity should be given?
What is the charitable impulse and do we have an actual responsibility to give back to others who are less fortunate?
How do we give when we have limited financial resources?
People don't pull themselves up by their bootstraps alone. We're all in debt for something. If we have brains and intelligence, we didn't make it—it was given to us! We owe for that. If we had loving parents, we're in debt for that. So we have a debt to pay… and an opportunity for alleviating past injustices, faults, weaknesses, whatever…"
—Eloise Houghton
Bolder Giving
Some people give no charity at all. But of Americans who do, the average family donation is 2-3% per year. This program examines how people arrive at the amount of their charitable contributions, where the money is contributed to, and what holds donors back from giving more, especially if they could afford to without hardship.
Reclaiming the Holidays
Author Annie Leonard, whose film "The Story of Stuff" has had over 10 million hits online, discusses ways to reduce the huge environmental toll from holiday-related purchases, but still connect with loved ones.
Rather than merely write checks to charities they don't really know well, a group of concerned women formed a "giving circle" which identifies social needs and then seeks out worthy recipients.
Tracy Gary
The founder of over a dozen charities, Tracy Gary (heiress to two large fortunes), describes her vision of philanthropy as an antidote for narcissism that can bring people together.

2/18/2013: Back in 2008 Frohnmayer and Kilkenny were flashing around a consultant's report predicting that Matt Court Arena revenue would be between $10M and $16M a year. But they were hiding a more substantial report with drastically lower projections: $6M to $8.6.
I also sent it to the Oregon legislature's bond analyst, who then vetoed Frohnmayer's scheme to finance the arena with tax-exempt revenue bonds: not enough revenue, the IRS would be all over us. Instead they had to sell regular taxable bonds. $235 million of them.
Sure the athletic dept pays all its operating expenses. I'll have a motion in the Senate next meeting showing just how exaggerated that claim is too.
Then there's this quote from the OUS VP for Finance, explaining how the $235 million in bonds has left UO unable to borrow money for academic purposes – those little niceties like classrooms.
Matt Court Arena – another one of Phil Knight's gifts that just "keep on taking". And don't miss the report by Matt Walks and Aubrey Wieber on the disaster that is Paul Westhead, also in the ODE.
11/6/2011: Ohio State has just borrowed big to fund an expansion of the academic side. Fascinating Oregonian column by David Sarasohn here on the very unusual 100 year bonds. (Yes, we know Frohnmayer sold $230 million in bonds for 2008, but that was for a basketball arena – although tuition money guarantees the repayment.) You know President Lariviere with his New Partnership, and Governor Kitzhaber with his 40/40/20 plan, are watching to see how this goes over. And so is UO's Athletic Director, Rob Mullens – who may well want to soon call on UO's borrowing authority to expand Autzen Stadium. Especially now that he knows how easy it is to trick the academic side into repaying athletic department debts.
Matt Court worth more than 300,000 children.
An initiative passed several years ago mandates all schools be upgraded in Oregon by 2032, a two billion dollar program. As of this writing we have allocated a total of $15 million with another $7.5 million to be allocated (if the bond sale actually goes through) this spring. The State Treasurer has advised the state that we cannot issue any general obligation bonds without endangering our bond rating and driving up interest rates – making them more costly to finance. So schools, emergency facilities, dams and bridges are just going to have to wait.
However, in the last session, knowing that the economy was still taking a dive, the state used up $200 million of its bond capacity to finance a monument to Phil Knight at the University of Oregon – because Phil gave the athletic department $100 million – none of which, however, could go to pay any of the capital costs of the new Knight Arena.
It's about values and money – and a guy like Knight who has the money, gets to dictate the values. Because apparently, the Oregon Legislature values U of O basketball more than the potential of losing 300,000 school children's lives in a major earthquake.
This is a little over the top, even by my standards! And now Bojack reports Mr. Williams is denying he wrote it. OK.
The safety concerns of Mac Court have been mentioned by President Frohnmayer and other UO officials as a reason why a new facility is urgently needed. Our subcommittee made an effort to evaluate the safety of Mac Court. We were informed that Mac Court, like all university buildings, is subject to building inspection, fire alarm inspections, fire sprinkler inspection and testing. In addition, fire pumps, standpipes, and fire extinguishers are inspected and tested per the fire codes. It is also noteworthy that the safety issues for Mac Court are quite different from other campus buildings given that the capacity of the facility is large but the usage is infrequent relative to other campus buildings.
Our subcommittee focused on the seismic risks, because the danger of earthquake threatens all University buildings, and because studies have been done that compare the risks of various university structures. On October 18th the subcommittee invited Chris Ramey, Senior Architect and Director of University Planning, to a meeting to discuss seismic risk studies and renovation potential for Mac Court. Mr. Ramey referred us to the University of Oregon Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan published in Winter 2006, which includes a detailed building by building assessment of Seismic risks (see page 7). The seismic risk of McArthur Court is not at the level of the structures which are of greatest concern (darkest purple on the map) and is in about the middle of the pack overall. According to the plan, buildings that are at a higher priority for additional seismic assessment and reinforcement include Esslinger, Friendly, Fenton, Hendricks, Knight Library, Lawrence, Susan Campbell, and Volcanology.
9/29/2010: Utterly unsurprising news in the RG today. The arena is not going to bring in the revenue Frohnmayer promised when he was selling the bonds to the legislature. And Chip Kelly needs another big raise to keep him on board. So the ticket money will go to Kelly, and the reserve fund – the principle, not just the income – will be used to make the bond payments. They are looting the reserve to pay their salaries, and when that money runs out they will run too. You can bank on it.
8/4/2010: At Missouri State, we mean. Change a few names and this story from the Springield Missouri News-Leader is eerily similar to the ones Ryan Knutson wrote for the Oregon Daily Emerald.
UO's current plan is to subsidize our new Arena on the sly, by increasing student and faculty/staff parking fees and by having the UO general fund pay the jock box operating costs.
We haven't heard any reports on how Matt Court ticket sales are going, or how quickly the "Athletic Legacy Fund" will be drained. When that money's gone they can fall back on the $1 ticket surcharge they are – supposedly – squirreling away in a rainy day fund.
James Cofer, the new president, plans to review the finances of JQH Arena, which outgoing president Mike Nietzel had promised would pay for itself.
"I'm not promising anything at this stage," said Cofer. But he added he believes the arena is an asset to the university. "It's important we utilize that asset," said Cofer.
Attendance at the arena is not bad, but Cofer said he would like to see more people.
The financial viability of JQH Arena became controversial after economics professor Reed Olsen last fall contended it lost $400,000 in its first year of operation. Nietzel in 2006 said JQH Arena would pay for itself and have no impact on the rest of the university budget.
There is no binding contract that JQH Arena would be self-sufficient financially. Nietzel refuted Olsen's claim, arguing JQH Arena had a $1.1 million surplus after its first year.
In his calculations, Nietzel counted $1.4 million in one-time interest income, which drastically cut the university's debt obligations to $700,000 in the 2008-2009 fiscal year.
Financial statements of the arena also show a student fee has been reallocated to support the basketball facility.
In 2006, the Faculty Senate charged its budget and priorities committee to monitor the arena's financial status, but last spring the Faculty Senate agreed the task would be pointless after the leadership change, because the new president is not bound by his predecessor's promise.
On Friday, Cofer said JQH Arena would stay within the university budget. He said he would review how revenues, such as student fees, and costs are allocated between JQH Arena and Hammons Student Center, the old basketball arena.

"The amount of time that it's taken to get a public records request processed is far longer than we are used to dealing with," Bonham said. "For this institution to be not completely transparent and forthcoming is a concern for the public." The University general counsel's office, which handles public records requests for the University, did not return calls seeking comment.

Doug doesn't sign his name to public records responses, and likes to use the email address gcounsel@uoregon.edu instead of his real one. I'm not sure if this is because he is embarrassed by what his boss Melinda Grier makes him do for a living, or is just trying to forestall an ethics investigation over the details.
So the projection is for $4 million in net revenue, for $15 million per year bond repayments. When the State Treasurer's office finally saw this report they refused to allow UO to sell the bonds as tax-exempt, because these numbers mean the IRS could have argued this was tax arbitrage, and imposed millions in penalties on UO. I wonder what Melinda is hiding this time?


Immunotherapy has revolutionized outcomes for cancer patients, but the mechanisms of resistance remain poorly defined. We used a series of whole-genome clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR)-based screens performed in vitro and in vivo to identify mechanisms of tumor immune evasion from cytotoxic lymphocytes [CD8+ T cells and natural killer (NK) cells]. Deletion of key genes within the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) signaling, interferon-γ (IFN-γ) signaling, and antigen presentation pathways provided protection of tumor cells from CD8+ T cell-mediated killing and blunted antitumor immune responses in vivo. Deletion of a number of genes in the TNF pathway also emerged as the key mechanism of immune evasion from primary NK cells. Our screens also identified that the metabolic protein 2-aminoethanethiol dioxygenase (Ado) modulates sensitivity to TNF-mediated killing by cytotoxic lymphocytes and is required for optimal control of tumors in vivo. Remarkably, we found that tumors delete the same genes when exposed to perforin-deficient CD8+ T cells, demonstrating that the dominant immune evasion strategy used by tumor cells is acquired resistance to T cell-derived cytokine-mediated antitumor effects. We demonstrate that TNF-mediated bystander killing is a potent T cell effector mechanism capable of killing antigen-negative tumor cells. In addition to highlighting the importance of TNF in CD8+ T cell- and NK cell-mediated killing of tumor cells, our study also provides a comprehensive picture of the roles of the TNF, IFN, and antigen presentation pathways in immune-mediated tumor surveillance.

Maritime College of Guangdong Ocean University (formerly known as Navigation College and renamed in April 2019) was set up in August 2001. It is composed of party and administration office, semi-militarized management office, student affairs office, three teaching departments (Navigation Department, Marine Engineering Department, Shipping Management Department) and two practice training centers (Experimental Training Center and Crew Training Center). The college currently runs four undergraduate programs, namely navigation technology, marine engineering (onshore and offshore), marine electronic and electrical engineering and transportation. Navigation technology and marine engineering were among the traditional undergraduate majors of Guangdong Ocean University (GDOU) whose predecessors were fishing and marine engineering of Guangdong Advanced Fisheries Vocational College established in 1935. And the two majors have developed into marine fishery, navigation technology, marine engineering (onshore and offshore), transportation, etc. For decades, Maritime College has trained and produced many maritime professionals for the country. Mr. Chen Hongze, the captain of the first ocean-going vessel (Guanghua) after the founding of People's Republic of China, was an early graduate of GDOU.
Maritime College boasts a team of high-quality faculties with rich teaching experience and strong ability of practice. There are 87 faculty members with 58 full-timers, including 4 professors, 21 with senior professional titles and 21 with deputy senior professional titles. Dual-qualification teachers account for 55%. Among them, there are 7 first-class captain certificate holders, 6 chief officers, 6 first-class chief engineers and 3 second engineers for the unrestricted navigation areas; and there is 1 captain, 2 chief officers and 2 first-class second engineers for coastal navigation areas. The college will continue to adopt a scientific approach to expand the faculty team, optimize the professional structure, strengthen scientific management, update college-running concept and improve the college-running conditions, and build the college into an important base for navigation education and crew training with a certain scale and level.
Maritime College has experimental (training) equipment funds of more than 80 million yuan and has built a navigation technology comprehensive laboratory, a marine engineering comprehensive laboratory, a transportation comprehensive laboratory and an aquatic training center. The experimental training center (Navigation Skills Training Center) of the college is an experimental teaching demonstration center of Guangdong Province and its venue, facilities and equipment fully meet the standard requirements of the " Seafarer Training Management Regulations of the People's Republic of China ". GDOU passed the crew training system certification of the Maritime Safety Administration of the People's Republic of China in 2003.
Maritime College currently has 1,856 full-time undergraduate students and a semi-militarized management system is implemented for maritime students. The college adheres to the work philosophy of "student-oriented talent cultivating" with the pursuit of students' all-round development as the starting point of student guidance and service, focusing on perfecting their personality, instructing them in study, and improving their quality. By organizing students to participate in activities such as "China Navigation Day", navigation model design competition and nautical science popularization competition,the college endeavors to help students understand the significance of the ocean and its relation to maritime power, and deeply integrate into the "Belt and Road" initiative and the strategy of maritime power, cultivating their enthusiasm for the ocean and navigation and enabling them to gradually establish the awareness of maritime national defense and strengthen the belief in "Navigation Dream-My Dream". The college actively carries out social practice activities; the practice teams go deep into the grassroots level and good results have been achieved.
For a long time, the development of the college has been strongly supported by the competent departments at all levels and people from all walks of life. With the joint efforts of the leadership of the college and all the faculty and staff, the employment quality of graduates has been continuously improved. Against the background of the strategic deployment of "building a maritime power" and the "One Belt One Road" initiative, the college will stick to the development concept of "innovation, harmony, openness and international integration", fully implement the three major aspects of "connotative development, characteristic development and innovative development" and strive to build a teaching-research oriented college with distinctive marine characteristics.

World Cup; Australia won't shy away from big selection calls after axing Ashton Agar
No Comments on World Cup; Australia won't shy away from big selection calls after axing Ashton Agar
Changing conditions on wickets set to take a pounding at the T20 World Cup could make for some big selection calls.
Changing conditions at the T20 World Cup could demand significant team changes and the prospect every member of Australia's 15-man squad could get a game.
Coach Justin Langer declared it was "extremely tough" to leave out spinner Ashton Agar, Australia's highest-ranked T20 bowler in the world, for the opening win over South Africa.
Captain Aaron Finch said it was "brutally tough".
It was a conditions and match-ups-based decision that came after Agar had played seven straight games, plus the two warm-up matches, bowling in tandem with fellow spinner Adam Zampa.
Game one hero Marcus Stoinis said there was "an argument for everyone to be in the team" and fully expected that as wickets became tired across the three venues being used, change could be a must.
"There's no easy answers and we'll probably just see what happens as the tournament goes on. I think everyone's going to get used in this tournament," he said.
"With these conditions, we've got to adapt as we go. He (Agar) has got such a good record, has been so good for us, so I wouldn't be counting anything out."
Langer said Australia had to be flexible in selections depending on conditions, opposition and match-ups, which could give Kane Richardson, Mitchell Swepson and Josh Inglis game time through the remaining four pool games and potentially in the finals.
Australia used Glenn Maxwell as its second spinner, ahead of Agar, and while the fast bowlers took five wickets in the opening win over South Africa, spin could be huge in the back end of the tournament.
"They're all tough (selection) decisions. There's no doubt about that," Langer said.
"We've said from day one to the players and we did it in the last World Cup and to a degree in the last Ashes in England, we'll just look at the conditions, we'll look at the opposition, we'll look at the match-ups, and we'll make the call that we think is right for the team.
"It doesn't always work out that way, but with all the information we've got we'll work through that."
Langer said leaving out Agar was especially tough.
"I can't emphasise enough how tough it was on Ashton Agar, his numbers are literally outstanding," he said. "And really tough on Kane Richardson.
"It's nice to have those selection headaches, but it worked OK yesterday (Sunday)."
Australia plays its next game against Sri Lanka on Thursday night in Dubai.

Nick Cannon Announces Death of 5-Month-Old Son Zen (Video)
12/07/2021 mj santilli News 2
Nick Cannon shared heartbreaking news Tuesday (Dec 7) on his talk show.
The Masked Singer host announced that his youngest son, 5 month old Zen had passed away from brain cancer.
The former America's Got Talent host and Alyssa Scott welcomed their baby boy in June. Nick explained on The Nick Cannon Show how they discovered that he was battling Hydrocephalus, a type of brain cancer.
"I always noticed he had a cough and so I wanted to check it out," Nick told the audience. "He had this interesting breathing and by the time he was two months I noticed he had this nice sized head too — a Cannon head. We didn't think anything of it. But I wanted to take him to the doctor for his sinus and breathing. We thought it would be routine."
The couple learned that Zen had fluid building in his head. After the doctors diagnosed him with a malignant brain tumor, they did surgery to drain the fluid. Sadly, however, during Thanksgiving his condition worsened.
"This weekend I made an effort to spend the most quality time with Zen. We woke up on Sunday and went to the ocean with him and Alyssa and then I had to fly back to New York for the show," he said as he broke down in tears. "I got a call on my way to the airport to head back to Zen."
Nick explained why he returned to work so quickly and dedicated the episode as a "celebration of life" for his late son. Zen was the youngest of Nick's 7 children–four born within the span of 12 months.

Minnis Told Junkanoo Funeral - No Rushout: Mourners Advised Ceremony Feared To Be 'Super Spreader' Had To Follow Covid Rules
Prime Minister Hubert Minnis.
As of Tuesday, October 20, 2020
Discuss 7 comments, Blog about
By RASHAD ROLLE
Tribune Senior Reporter
rrolle@tribunemedia.net
PRIME Minister Dr Hubert Minnis told Junkanoo members not to hold a rushout that is now at the centre of claims that it contributed to the creation of a COVID-19 cluster.
The rushout was held earlier this month to celebrate Dr Philip "Slimey" Thompson, a prominent Junkanoo figure and member of the Shell Saxons Superstars who died in August.
Amid questions about whether the event facilitated the rapid spread of COVID-19 among participants, Dion Miller, the chairman of the Junkanoo Corporation of New Providence, said yesterday that he and Dr Minnis told participants not to engage in the activity.
"Persons," he said, "are sending stuff around through social media claiming that this event spread COVID-19 but I don't think it was an official document or action from the Ministry of Health that confirmed this. However, the prime minister nor the JCNP chairman gave any group the permission or green light to have such an event."
"They received communication from both myself and the prime minister advising them not to participate in such an event and the organisation made the decision to do what it had to do."
A spokesperson for the Office of the Prime Minister confirmed yesterday that Dr Minnis advised members not to have the rushout. Without his permission, the gathering likely contravened Dr Minnis' emergency powers orders.
A representative of the Saxons declined to comment yesterday and health officials did not respond to questions about whether the event is seen as a "super-spreader" of COVID-19.
"As the chairman of the JCNP I would recommend that all persons who were out there participating in that event do their due diligence if they can afford to to get tested and I would encourage everyone to wear their masks," Mr Miller said.
He said to his knowledge the only person who participated in the event that is known to have contracted COVID-19 is a relative of Dr Thompson.
"As for actual members of the group, I have not heard reports of anyone testing positive for COVID-19," he said.
Gene "Sparky" Thompson, one of the participants in the rushout and a friend of Dr Thompson, said Saxons leaders did not plan the rushout.
"There was no organisation of any Junkanoo march by the Saxons organisation," he said. "The Saxons organised that by themselves. Nobody was around me without masks. The Junkanoo group came out of the Ministry of Health yard, they lined up ahead of me and they started the Junkanoo rush. Nobody organised that. They started marching…all of the fellas around me had their masks on."
Mr Miller said he is not surprised that some disobeyed official orders.
"Dr Slimey Thompson was one of the leaders of that organisation and was like a father figure to many members of the community," he said. "I knew they would've still tried to recognise him in some way despite what we told them. If you go through Mason's Addition today you'd still see the gigantic banner they have celebrating him. Traditionally in the Junkanoo world when a Junkanoo (member) passes away we honour that person with a traditional Junkanoo rushout. He was a giant in the community and had such a positive impact so they held this event in his honour."

" Dr Hubert Minnis told Junkanoo members not to hold a rushout that is now at the centre of claims that it contributed to the creation of a COVID-19 cluster."
How many times will we hear the "I wash my hands, Pontius Pilate" speech? You know what would have stopped the junkanoo rushout? If Dr Minnis had not relaxed the 10 person per funeral rule right before the funeral then reinstated the 10 person rule immediately after. It was clear from a mile away the rules were relaxed for THIS funeral. So bad, Dr Minnis showed up at the funeral himself. We have to stop allowing these things to skate by. If you open the border what you expect people who been locked down for months to do? This I'll allow it but I told y'all not to do it is unacceptable.

So if i choose not to obey the competent authority nothing will happen to me? Asking for a friend. This is indicative of how useless we are as a nation. My only hope is that it brings the inevitable collapse a bit quicker as it doesn't matter who is in power all rules will be broken as and when certain connected people see fit. Then once we have collapsed hopefully we can build a better Bahamas.

If they contravened the emergency laws, how many were arrested, fined or imprisoned. The videos clearly show police officers, some of them high ranking, in the midst of this "illegal" crowd. They were not arresting anyone. It was more like they were participating. It is events like these that have all of the law abiding citizens under curfew and lockdown. If you are not going to enforce your own laws, why make them up? Is that reducing the spread and its consequences?
trueBahamian 2 months, 4 weeks ago
It is understandable that members of the Saxns wanted to honor a giant in their organization. But, the PM has to ensure that the rules are followed. There must be consistency. You put in place fines for breach of the emergency orders. So, where are the fines? Why are people not showing up in the magistrates court for this infraction? You allow a rush out but then want to crucify the guy selling coconut water by thr roadside. This is ridiculous.
TalRussell 2 months, 4 weeks ago
Was noted at the time the now suddenly vocal voices went silent when the same Mr. Minnis had publicly stated he took his grandson play game tennis whilst rest you were placed under emergency orders must shelter and play inside. Voices said nothing when they the homeless and coconut water sellers were being imprisoned and fined beyond their pockets.

Q: Php/mysql ranking system - Placement inside a result set ordered by column In a blog-like website, all the users can "star" a news (= bookmark it, mark it as "favourite").
I have a mysql table for stats.
table_news_stats

id_news
total_stars (int) //Total number of users who starred this news
placement (int)

The placement field is intuitive: if you order all the news by the total_stars field you get each news placement. So, the news with most stars will be number 1, and so on.
So, suppose I have 700 records in my table_news_stats, and for each one I have the id and the total_stars count, how can I update the placement field automatically for each record? Which query is faster/better?
Example of the table_news_stats content:
First record (A):
1-3654-?

Second record (B):
2-2456-?

Third record (C):
3-8654-?

If you order the record by stars count:
the sequence of records is C - A - B
So... the result will be:
First record (A):
1-3654-2

Second record (B):
2-2456-3

Third record (C):
3-8654-1

Clarification:
why would I ever need the placement field at all?
It's pretty simple... the placement field will be populated by a cronjob the first day of every month. Basically it will provide a 'snapshot' of the rank of each news in terms of popularity (as it was at the beginning of the current month). As a consequence, thanks to the placement field, I will have the following information:
"The 1st day of this month the 'top starred' news list was like this:
1- News C
2- NewsA
3- News B "

Then, with a query "SELECT * FROM table_news_stats ORDER BY total_stars DESC" I can obtain the new ranking (in real-time).
As a consequence, I will have the following information:
"At the time the page is loaded, the 'top starred' news list is like this:
1- News A
2- News C
3- News B "

Finally, by comparing the two rankings, I obtain the last piece of information:
"News A has gained a position" +1
"News C has lost a position" -1
"News B has no change in position" +0

If there is a better way of doing this, let me know.

A: I guess you don't need to update the table just:
SELECT *
FROM table_news_stats
ORDER BY total_stars DESC

But if you want to know the place of each one you can:
SELECT *, IF(@idx IS NULL,@idx:= 1,@idx:= @idx+1)
FROM table_news_stats
ORDER BY total_stars DESC

And if you still need to update something like:
UPDATE table_news_stats
SET placement = FIND_IN_SET(id_news,(SELECT GROUP_CONCAT(t.id_news) FROM (SELECT id_news
    FROM table_news_stats
    ORDER BY total_stars DESC) t ))

SQLFiddle

A: Consider the following
mysql> select * from test ;
+------+-------------+-----------+
| id   | total_stars | placement |
+------+-------------+-----------+
|    1 |           3 |         0 |
|    2 |           6 |         0 |
|    3 |           7 |         0 |
|    4 |           2 |         0 |
|    5 |           9 |         0 |
|    6 |           2 |         0 |
|    7 |           1 |         0 |
+------+-------------+-----------+

Now using the following you can update the placement as
update test t1 join
(
 select *,
 @rn:= if(@prev = total_stars,@rn,@rn+1) as rank ,
 @prev:= total_stars
 from test,(select @rn:=0,@prev:=0)r
 order by total_stars desc
)t2
on t2.id = t1.id
set t1.placement = t2.rank ;

mysql> select * from test order by placement ;
+------+-------------+-----------+
| id   | total_stars | placement |
+------+-------------+-----------+
|    5 |           9 |         1 |
|    3 |           7 |         2 |
|    2 |           6 |         3 |
|    1 |           3 |         4 |
|    4 |           2 |         5 |
|    6 |           2 |         5 |

Theological Engagements with the Secular
Book Pages: 248 Illustrations: Published: May 1994
Author: Stanley Hauerwas
God knows it is hard to make God boring, Stanley Hauerwas writes, but American Christians, aided and abetted by theologians, have accomplished that feat. Whatever might be said about Hauerwas—and there is plenty—no one has ever accused him of being boring, and in this book he delivers another jolt to all those who think that Christian theology is a matter of indifference to our secular society.
At once Christian theology and social criticism, this book aims to show that the two cannot be separated. In this spirit, Hauerwas mounts a forceful attack on current sentimentalities about the significance of democracy, the importance of the family, and compassion, which appears here as a literally fatal virtue. In this time of the decline of religious knowledge, when knowing a little about a religion tends to do more harm than good, Hauerwas offers direction to those who would make Christian discourse both useful and truthful. Animated by a deep commitment, his essays exhibit the difference that Christian theology can make in the shaping of lives and the world.
"Stanley Hauerwas is a committed Christian pacifist. But his new book on pacifism, liberal democracy, and myriad other topics is anything but peaceful. . . . The author pulls no punches theological or otherwise, in essays that argue for the transformative power of Christian discourse and imagination." — Chronicle of Higher Education
"Ingratiating theology is always boring. This book is exciting just because it displays an uncompromising Christian who thinks about matters of great general concern. Stanley Hauerwas's extraordinary intellectual energy constantly jolts one into reconsidering what one had previously taken for granted. He illustrates how a vigorous theology can participate in the common conversation." — Robert N. Bellah, author of Habits of the Heart
"Stanley Hauerwas is one of the few prophetic voices of our time—idiosyncratic, cantankerous, and challenging." — Cornel West
"Stanley Hauerwas's criticisms of the American pieties are unanswerable. His alternatives are likely to be considered an outrage. Hooray for Hawerwas! There's no one I'd rather be reading." — Frank Lentricchia
Stanley Hauerwas is the Gilbert T. Rowe Professor of Theological Ethics at Duke University. He is the author of numerous books, the most recent being In Good Company: The Church as Polis. He is also co-editor, with Alasdair MacIntyre, of a book series entitled "Revisions: Changing Perspectives in Moral Philosophy."
