Bohannon's late run helps No. 20 Iowa hold off Indiana 77-72
By MICHAEL MAROTFebruary 8, 2019
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (AP) — Iowa's Jordan Bohannon waited patiently for his chances Thursday.
When they came, the junior guard delivered a seemingly bigger blow with each successive shot.
The junior guard matched his season-high by scoring 25 points including the last 11 to help the No. 20 Iowa hold on for a crucial 77-72 victory at Indiana.
Sophomore Luka Garza on a tear for surging Hawkeyes
By LUKE MEREDITHFebruary 5, 2019
Iowa sophomore Luka Garza started this season in recovery after a nine-pound benign cyst was removed from his abdomen.
He might end it as one of the best players in the Big Ten.
The 6-foot-11 Garza has been on a tear of late, carrying the 20th-ranked Hawkeyes like he never has before.
Iowa stuns No. 5 Michigan 74-59
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Michigan's Colin Castleton squared up for a meaningless 3-pointer at the buzzer — only to see the ball get stuck between the backboard and the rim in front of jubilant Iowa students clamoring to storm the floor.
It was the brick that encapsulated a lost night for Big Blue.
Luka Garza scored 19 points, Joe Wieskamp added 16 and Iowa stunned fifth-ranked Michigan 74-59 on Friday night, handing the Wolverines their second loss of the season.
No. 19 Iowa looks to get payback vs. No. 6 Michigan State
By LUKE MEREDITHJanuary 23, 2019
No matchup engendered skepticism of Iowa quite like its 90-68 loss at Michigan State in early December.
The Hawkeyes collapsed late in the first half, allowing the Spartans to reel off a staggering 40-11 run in a drubbing that felt like so many of the ones Iowa suffered through a year ago. The 19th-ranked Hawkeyes have looked like a different team of late — and they'd like nothing more than to prove it when they host the sixth-ranked Spartans (17-2, 8-0) on Thursday night.
Wieskamp scores 24, No. 23 Iowa routs Illinois 95-71
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Midway through the second half, an Iowa fan won a half-court challenge with a swish at the buzzer.
The Hawkeyes' hot shooting must have been contagious.
Freshman Joe Wieskamp matched a career high with 24 points and No. 23 Iowa shot 68 percent from the field in routing Illinois 95-71 on Sunday for its fifth straight victory.
Garza's 22 lead No. 23 Iowa over Penn State 89-82
By TRAVIS JOHNSONJanuary 17, 2019
STATE COLLEGE, Pa. (AP) — With plenty of time left on the shot clock and his team nursing a slight lead late, Iowa guard Jordan Bohannon probably could've been more patient.
His coach is glad he wasn't.
Bohannon stepped back with 36 seconds left and drained his fifth 3-pointer of the night to clinch the No. 23 Hawkeyes' 89-82 win over Penn State on Wednesday night.
"It's a good shot because he took it," Iowa coach Fran McCaffery said. "I would've been surprised if he didn't shoot it."

0-2 in the Big Ten, Iowa looks to hang in league chase
By LUKE MEREDITHJanuary 2, 2019
For the first time in 31 years, Iowa finished non-conference play unbeaten.
The 25th-ranked Hawkeyes also lost their first two Big Ten games, which essentially eliminated any margin for error in the conference race. It won't get any easier this week.
Iowa (11-2, 0-2 Big Ten) resumes Big Ten play on Thursday when it travels to face Carsen Edwards, the nation's second-leading scorer at 25.8 points a game, and Purdue (8-5, 1-1). The Hawkeyes then host No. 24 Nebraska on Sunday.
No. 24 Iowa survives lowly Bryant 72-67
By LUKE MEREDITHDecember 30, 2018
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — It had been over three decades since Iowa had last finished its non-conference team schedule undefeated.
But the 24th-ranked Hawkeyes will resume Big Ten play next week at 0-2 in the league — and coming off one of their ugliest wins in years.
Tyler Cook scored 19 points with 12 rebounds for his fourth double-double in seven games and 24th-ranked Iowa held off lowly Bryant 72-67 on Saturday night.
Wieskamp scores 24, No. 23 Iowa routs Savannah State 110-64
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Once it became apparent that Savannah State posed no threat, Iowa seemed content to let Jordan Bohannon shoot his way out of a season-long slump.
Bohannon responded with his best game of the year — a positive sign with the bulk of the Big Ten season just over a week away.
Joe Wieskamp scored a career-high 24 points, Bohannon had 18 on six 3s and the No. 23 Hawkeyes blew past Savannah State 110-64 on Saturday for their fourth straight victory.
Cook scores 18, No. 23 Iowa beats Western Carolina 78-60
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Iowa opened its final nonconference homestand by slogging its way to victory over a team that didn't play like it came in with nine losses.
Tyler Cook scored 18 points, Luka Garza added 15 and No. 23 Iowa beat Western Carolina 78-60 on Tuesday for its third consecutive win.
Freshman Joe Wieskamp scored 10 points for the Hawkeyes (9-2), who forced 26 turnovers and led by as many as 27 points.
"I thought we fought," Iowa coach Fran McCaffery said. "We had to fight."
No. 18 Iowa cruises past Iowa State, 98-84
By LUKE MEREDITHDecember 7, 2018
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — A 22-point loss at Michigan State left many wondering if the 18th-ranked Hawkeyes were for real.
Iowa answered its critics on Thursday night by stomping archrival Iowa State — almost literally — to snap a two-game losing streak.
Tyler Cook had 26 points and 11 rebounds, Isaiah Moss added 20 points and the Hawkeyes cruised to a 98-84 victory in a game marked by skirmishes in the first half and after the whistle.
Wieskamp helps No. 14 Iowa hold off Pittsburgh 69-68
By LUKE MEREDITHNovember 28, 2018
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — The first five games were a relative breeze for the 14th-ranked Iowa Hawkeyes, who unexpectedly jumped into the Top 25 after an impressive trip to New York.
The rebuilding Pitt Panthers reminded Iowa that things typically aren't so easy against fellow high-major teams — even ones that didn't win a conference game last season.
No. 20 Iowa routs Alabama State 105-78
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Iowa freshman Joe Wieskamp had something to prove after back-to-back bad showings.
The Hawkeyes' newest star was brilliant on Wednesday night, a display that showed why he earned the starting spot he's had since the opener.
Luka Garza scored 22 points, Wieskamp had a career-high 20 and 20th-ranked Iowa rolled Alabama State 105-78 on Wednesday night in its home debut as a ranked team.

By DENIS P. GORMANNovember 16, 2018

Experienced Hawkeyes know D will lead the way in '18-19
By LUKE MEREDITHOctober 25, 2018
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Iowa will be one of the most experienced teams in America this winter as it brings back its top nine scorers from a year ago.
That won't matter much if the Hawkeyes play defense as poorly as they did a year ago.
Iowa's Luka Garza has surgery for benign cyst in abdomen
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Iowa sophomore Luka Garza had surgery Friday to remove a benign cyst in his abdomen and is out indefinitely.
Coach Fran McCaffery says Garza's procedure "went well." He says the Hawkeyes look forward to him rejoining the team this fall.
McCaffery not surprised Tyler Cook returns to Iowa
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — No one was less surprised that Tyler Cook decided to come back to Iowa than coach Fran McCaffery.
The biggest question now for the Hawkeyes is whether Cook's return will be enough to get them back on track after a disappointing season.
Isaiah Moss returning to Iowa in '18-19
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Iowa guard Isaiah Moss says he'll be back for his junior season with the Hawkeyes in 2018-19.
Moss announced on Tuesday he intends to return to Iowa City after getting feedback from NBA personnel on his future in the league.
Moss averaged 11.1 points a game last season and was second on the team in steals. But Moss wasn't expected to be picked in the upcoming draft.
Iowa PG Connor McCaffery receives hardship waiver
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Iowa point guard Connor McCaffery has been granted a hardship waiver by the Big Ten, leaving him with four seasons of eligibility remaining.
The league announced Monday it had approved McCaffery's petition after he played just four games as a true freshman.
McCaffery, the son of coach Fran McCaffery, missed two games with a sprained ankle, eight games with mononucleosis and 19 games after undergoing a tonsillectomy in December.
Iowa sophomore forward Tyler Cook to test NBA draft interest
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Iowa sophomore forward Tyler Cook has submitted paperwork for early entry into the 2018 NBA draft. He has not hired an agent, meaning he could possibly return to the Hawkeyes next season.
Cook announced Friday that he is seeking to gauge the league's interest after he led Iowa with 15.3 points and 6.8 rebounds a game in 2017-18.
The 6-foot-9 Cook also ranked seventh in the Big Ten with seven double-doubles and eighth in shooting percentage.
Iowa ends unexpectedly miserable season with Michigan loss
After each of coach Fran McCaffery's first seven seasons at Iowa, it felt as though the program was in position for better things in the future.
This year was an unexpected disaster, and no one seems to know where the Hawkeyes are headed this offseason.
Cassius Winston is big-time amid Michigan State bigs
Matt Charboneau, The Detroit NewsFebruary 6, 2018
Iowa City, Iowa – When teams are getting ready to take on Michigan State, the focus of the game plan is usually obvious.
From the athleticism of Miles Bridges to the low-post scoring of Nick Ward to the matchup nightmare that is Jaren Jackson Jr., the Spartans offer plenty for opposing teams to pay attention to in their preparation. That goes for Iowa, as well, which was set to host No. 4 Michigan State on Tuesday night at Carver-Hawkeye Arena.
Bohannon, Cook lead Iowa past Minnesota 94-80
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Don't look now, but the Hawkeyes are inching toward respectability in the Big Ten — at least at home.
Jordan Bohannon led six Iowa players in double figures with 20 points and the Hawkeyes rolled past Minnesota 94-80 on Tuesday night, its second straight win in Iowa City by double digits.
Palmer scores 28, Huskers pull away from Iowa for 98-84 win
By ERIC OLSONJanuary 28, 2018
LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — James Palmer Jr. scored 28 points, Isaac Copeland added 23 points and 11 rebounds and Nebraska pulled away from Iowa in the second half for a 98-84 win Saturday night.
Nebraska (16-8, 7-4 Big Ten) scored its most points in a conference game since putting up 99 against Kansas State in 2002 when the Huskers were in the Big 12.
Garza, Cook lead Iowa past Wisconsin 85-67
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — For once, Iowa was the aggressor.
The result was a much-needed win over a long-time rival and, finally, some hope that the next six weeks might not be so bleak after all.
Freshman Luka Garza scored 17 points with a career-high 16 rebounds, Tyler Cook added 17 points and Iowa walloped Wisconsin 85-67 on Tuesday night, snapping a two-game losing streak.
Iowa scuffling along with trouble on both ends of court
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — For much of coach Fran McCaffery's eight-year tenure at Iowa, things seemed to be moving in the right direction.
This season has gone sideways.
The Hawkeyes have surprisingly lost their way after returning almost the entire team that nearly made the NCAA Tournament a year ago. Granted, the starter they lost was Peter Jok, the Big Ten's leading scorer. But Iowa still looked like an up-and-coming squad with a bright future.
Bohannon, Iowa rally from 20 down, beat Illinois in OT
By TERRY TOWERYJanuary 12, 2018
CHAMPAIGN, Ill. (AP) — Jordan Bohannon scored 29 points to help Iowa rally from a 20-point deficit for a 104-97 overtime win over Illinois on Thursday night.
It was Iowa's second-largest comeback in school history. The biggest comeback was 22 points, also against Illinois in 1987. Thursday's game marked the Hawkeyes' first Big Ten victory, and dropped the Illini to 0-5 in conference play.
Bohannon's three-pointer in overtime put the Hawkeyes up 99-90 and sealed the win.
Maryland uses second-half surge to beat Iowa 91-73
By DAVID GINSBURGJanuary 8, 2018
COLLEGE PARK, Md. (AP) — Long before Maryland proved it had far too much depth for Iowa, Hawkeyes coach Fran McCaffery was slapped with a pair of technical fouls and banished from the court.
He was spared from watching his young team wither under a barrage of baskets from a variety of Terrapins.
Freshman Bruno Fernando scored a career-high 21 points, Anthony Cowan Jr. added 15 and Maryland pulled away to a 91-73 victory Sunday night to keep the Hawkeyes winless in the Big Ten.
Iowa pulls away from Colorado 80-73 for fourth straight win
By MARCUS TRAXLERDecember 23, 2017
SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (AP) — It will be listed as a neutral site game in the record books, but Iowa took full advantage of the heavily partisan crowd in their favor Friday.
The Hawkeyes shot 58 percent in the second half to pull away from Colorado late and beat the Buffs 80-73 at the Sanford Pentagon Friday.
Drake, UNI look to upstage Hawkeyes and Cyclones
AMES, Iowa (AP) — Iowa and Iowa State have never been swept in their annual doubleheader against Northern Iowa and Drake.
That might change on Saturday in Des Moines. The Hawkeyes (5-6) and Cyclones (7-2) are both at serious risk of dropping their neutral-floor matchups at Wells Fargo Arena.
Iowa State, which faces off against the Panthers, is 25 spots below Northern Iowa (15th) in the RPI rankings. Iowa (239rd) is 38 slots behind the Bulldogs.
Garza has 23 points, 13 rebounds; Iowa beats Southern 91-60
By COURTNEY BAUMANNDecember 11, 2017
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Freshman Luka Garza had 23 points and 13 rebounds to help Iowa snap a four-game skid with a 91-60 win over Southern on Sunday.

Nunge leads Iowa past Grambling, 85-74 for 3rd straight win
By ADAM HENSLEYNovember 17, 2017
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — For the first time this season, Iowa got into trouble.
The Hawkeyes survived thanks to their defense, holding Grambling scoreless for over six minutes after somehow falling behind at home and pulling out an 85-74 win Thursday night.
"I thought we played a team that was ready," Iowa head coach Fran McCaffery said.
Hawkeyes drill Chicago State 95-62 in opener
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Iowa passed its initial test without Peter Jok, rolling past Chicago State and displaying the kind of depth that would make most opponents jealous.
Freshman Luka Garza scored 16 points in his debut, Isaiah Moss added 14 points in 13 minutes and Iowa pounded Chicago State 95-62 on Friday night.
Tyler Cook and Jordan Bohannon added 12 points apiece for the Hawkeyes, who shot 59.6 percent in their first game without Jok, the Big Ten's leading scorer a year ago.
Iowa star recruit Connor McCaffery will play this season
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Iowa freshman point guard Connor McCaffery has decided to play this season instead of redshirt.
The star recruit and son of Hawkeyes coach Fran McCaffery had planned to sit out as a freshman and play baseball for Iowa in the spring. But backup point guard Christian Williams left the program last week, leaving Iowa thin at that position.
Young, talented Hawkeyes look to return to NCAA Tournament
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Iowa lost its best player from a team that failed to reach the NCAA Tournament.
Yet the feeling in Iowa City is that the Hawkeyes could be on the verge of returning to prominence in the Big Ten.

Galleries of Justice and Viaduct Tavern (S1, E5) Great British Ghosts
Christine Miller
Great British Ghosts
The Galleries of Justice
Viaduct Tavern, London
CHRISTINE MILLER takes a look at the fourth episode of Great British Ghosts centred on the Galleries of Justice, Nottingham, and the Viaduct Tavern, London
Once again Michaela Strachan is on the hunt for all things paranormal and spooky, and in this episode she visits Nottingham's Galleries of Justice and London's Viaduct Tavern; both of which have a reputation for being very, very haunted.
The Galleries of Justice was in use from 1780 until 1986. Paranormal investigator Chris Arnold takes Michaela on a tour of the building and tells her that a variety of visitors have witnessed similar activity at different times – mostly black shadows which flirt around the main gallery of the building. Chris himself witnessed unexplained flashing light there that were 'almost like a firework effect', he recalls. Screams, moans and sighs have all been heard on site also.
It seems clear that a lot of despair still lingers here.
In 1799, a public dissection was scheduled with the aim of acting as a deterrent, but it proved to be a bit too popular, as the public saw it as an entertaining day out to be had instead!
In the county jail underneath the main building, men and women were thrown together to complete their sentences. Michaela tells us that the oldest cells date from medieval times, and the conditions, even just a century ago, would have been nothing short of appalling. Three inmates were allocated to a single cell, but when particularly busy, the jail would hold around 70 inmates between just twelve cells.
The female prisoners were expected to work in the laundry for a minimum of eight hours per day and in complete silence. This was due to the belief that conversing was thought to promote criminal activity. While in the laundry room, the tour guide tells Michaela that he has walked through the area more than once only to find that various items in the area were actually shaking by themselves, with no logical explanation.
Moving to the 'dark cells', Michaela is clearly shocked to discover that those who were unable to pay for the previous cells, that in hindsight now seem relatively quite plush, prisoners would have to stay in one of the pits – basically a horrifically claustrophobic hole in the ground, locked overhead with a metal gate. This was common practice in the jail up to the 18th century – some unfortunates would have to spend a month or even two in these conditions before being transported to Australia.
The solitary confinement cell is popular with paranormal groups, many of whom aim to attempt to bunk in the cell for as long as possible. However, Michaela's guide explains that no one has lasted longer than around ten minutes in this part of the building alone.
Next, the pair venture to the exercise yard; supposedly the most paranormally active site of them all. This is probably not surprising seeing as it doubled up as the gallows at one time. The guide explains that he has witnessed a male figure walk across the yard, dressed in what he describes as a 'jailer's outfit'. Apparently, this gentleman has been seen by quite a few people on separate occasions wandering throughout the exercise yard.
Further underground in the building, it is perhaps somewhat surprising that there is a chapel area which looks rather sinister and foreboding. This part of the Galleries of Justice is where strange chanting has been heard and numerous groups investigating this particular area have had stones thrown at them. The stones have even been allegedly thrown on command.
Now that's one clever ghost.
Michaela's second stop is to the Viaduct Tavern in London, a former gin palace which is rich with history.
Michaela meets with well-respected historian Richard Jones who talks her through some of the spirits that haunt the building. Most, but not all of the activity is limited to the cellar area. Chillingly, when in the cellar one landlord heard a voice murmur to him, 'it's just us two down here now'.
One spooky event which did not take part in the cellar was in 1982, when the landlord's daughter was tasked with the running of the pub for the day. On a quick break she decided to go upstairs to read a newspaper. Relaxing on the sofa, she soon heard footsteps come up the stairs, and then in quick succession, the door was opened, the newspaper then was violently snatched from her hands by an invisible force, only for the door to close again and the footsteps descended back down the stairs.
Richard takes Michaela to the ominous cellar area, where he explains that the building was once sandwiched between two prisons, one of which was the infamous Newgate Prison. According to Richard, psychic mediums have a particularly difficult time in this area; many of them become sick and nauseous, and develop an intense feeling of hopelessness and despair.

Q: Updating MySQL table using Python loop and escape I wrote a python script to update currency exchange rates using API calls. I successfully parsed the json results and extracted individual exchange rates as floats. I am however struggling with formatting/implementing an SQL table update loop.
Here is a code snippet that is tripping me up, assume that val = an actual exchange rate variable that is supplied from the API fetching/parsing section of the code:
            mycursor = mydb.cursor()
            sql = "UPDATE currencies SET coefficient = %s"
            val = 0.03137
            mycursor.execute(sql, val)
            mydb.commit()

Running this gives me the following error:
Could not process parameters: float(0.03137), it must be of type list, tuple or dict:
I do not even know what to search for in order to reach an explanation that I understand and that helps me implement what I want correctly.

A: From: https://dev.mysql.com/doc/connector-python/en/connector-python-api-mysqlcursor-execute.html

Note
In Python, a tuple containing a single value must include a comma. For
example, ('abc') is evaluated as a scalar while ('abc',) is evaluated
as a tuple.

Thus in my example the expression that works is:
val = (0.03137, )

Q: expo-image-manipulator won't take uri from expo-image-picker I am using the expo-image-picker to get the image uri of a locally stored image.  I want to use the expo-image-manipulator to resize the image prior to sending it to the backend but the expo imageManipulator will not take the uri from the expo image picker.  These errors are happening while running in expo on an android emulator.
Here is the basic code getting the uri:
import * as ImagePicker from "expo-image-picker";

const selectImage = async () => {
try {
  const result = await ImagePicker.launchImageLibraryAsync({
    mediaTypes: ImagePicker.MediaTypeOptions.Images,
    quality: 0.5,
  });
  if (!result.cancelled) onChangeImage(result.uri);
} catch (error) {
  console.log("Error reading an image", error);
}

};
I can send this image directly to the backend and save it to my S3 just fine.  When I console.log(uri), here is what I get:

file:/data/user/0/host.exp.exponent/cache/ExperienceData/%2540anonymous%252FThredFit-59f4d533-f203-4efb-bcb0-6a5786d44584/ImagePicker/0ea74111-8677-4074-81af-5fbc1f0758d5.jpg

Now I try to enter this into the image resizer below (as imageUri):
import * as ImageManipulator from 'expo-image-manipulator';

const setSize = async (imageUri, width, height) => {
try {
  const manipResult = await ImageManipulator.manipulateAsync(
    imageUri,
    [{ resize: { width: width, height: height } }],
    { format: 'jpeg' }
);
  console.log(manipResult);
} catch (error) {
  console.log("Error manipulating image: ", error);
}

};
and I get the following error on the android emulator:

abi38_0_0.com.facebook.react.bridge.ReadableNativeMap cannot be cast to java.lang.String

if I stringify the imageUrl first, then I get past this error but the resizer throws an error saying it can't decode the image:

[Error: Could not get decoded bitmap of "file:/data/user/0/host.exp.exponent/cache/ExperienceData/%2540anonymous%252FThredFit-59f4d533-f203-4efb-bcb0-6a5786d44584/ImagePicker/0ea74111-8677-4074-81af-5fbc1f0758d5.jpg": java.lang.Exception: Loading bitmap failed]

Image of the emulator error
image of the logged error

A: It's hard to see exactly what is going on here because you didn't provide all of the relevant code. I suspect that the issue you encountered is around stringifying an object rather than getting the appropriate value off of it. Here's an example of ImagePicker and ImageManipulator integration: https://snack.expo.io/@brents/image-picker-and-manipulator
import React, { useState, useEffect } from 'react';
import { Button, Image, View, Platform } from 'react-native';
import * as ImagePicker from 'expo-image-picker';
import * as ImageManipulator from 'expo-image-manipulator';
import Constants from 'expo-constants';

export default function ImagePickerExample() {
  const [image, setImage] = useState(null);

  useEffect(() => {
    (async () => {
      if (Platform.OS !== 'web') {
        const { status } = await ImagePicker.requestMediaLibraryPermissionsAsync();
        if (status !== 'granted') {
          alert('Sorry, we need camera roll permissions to make this work!');
        }
      }
    })();
  }, []);

  const pickImage = async () => {
    let result = await ImagePicker.launchImageLibraryAsync({
      mediaTypes: ImagePicker.MediaTypeOptions.All,
      allowsEditing: true,
      aspect: [4, 3],
      quality: 1,
    });

    console.log(result);

    if (result.cancelled) {
      return;
    }

    const manipResult = await ImageManipulator.manipulateAsync(
      result.localUri || result.uri,
      [{ rotate: 90 }, { flip: ImageManipulator.FlipType.Vertical }],
      { compress: 1, format: ImageManipulator.SaveFormat.PNG }
    );

    setImage(manipResult.uri);
  };

  return (
    <View style={{ flex: 1, alignItems: 'center', justifyContent: 'center' }}>
      <Button title="Pick an image from camera roll" onPress={pickImage} />
      {image && <Image source={{ uri: image }} style={{ width: 200, height: 200 }} />}

Music	 December 1st, 2003
Blasts from the Present
by Grant Moser
Stellastar*, The Giraffes
1. "i've been living without you"
If you hang on to something long enough, it'll be new again. Fashion inevitably returns to a former state, adapts it some, adds in some new components, and is big again. As we've seen over the last few years, music is no different— at least the music getting all the press and front covers. Logically, we've just moved through the seventies and it's time we began the eighties. Enter Stellastarr*.
When I caught their act at Don Hill's, their early- to mid-eighties influence was clear. There are elements of the Smiths, Mission U.K., Blondie, Modern English, some Cure, some New Order, Echo and the Bunnymen, and even A-ha present in their songs. But while their music is obviously new wave-y, it contains some nicely done modern additions; it sounds familiar, but feels original. That keyboard sound we're all familiar with from the English invasion of the eighties is there, and so are some more contemporary guitar chords. Vocalist/guitarist Shawn Christensen is an energetic, emotive singer, with a quick delivery and a voice that combines the cadences of David Byrne and Devo with British new-wave falsettos.
While only a demo, the one Stellastar* CD I have sounds well produced. It lacks the absorbing sound of the live show, but it's still a good representation of what the group can do. "Somewhere Across Forever" is the kind of catchy tune you'd expect to hear in Some Kind of Wonderful. "Homeland" opens sounding like the Cure, then shifts into an A-ha-style ghostly-melodic tune and back again. Go-Go's and Blondie influences figure into "No Weather," a quick-paced guitar-driven song with those wonderful backing "ba-ba-ba" vocals. "My Coco," with its thundering drums, could pass for Big Country.
There is passion in Stellastarr*'s music. It transports you back to a time when music was changing very rapidly and you knew something was happening (either good or bad, depending on your viewpoint). The question we all have to ask ourselves about the new retro-drive in music is: Where do you draw the line? Where does a band do something original and where are they simply a parody, a cover band, or plainly stealing?
After the passage of so much time since the seventies or early eighties, this retro-music sounds new again, and we're reminded of the feeling we had first listening to it. Stellastarr* is not a carbon-copy, but they do borrow liberally from bands of the past. Are they reviving a music genre? Yes. Are they contributing something new to it? Maybe. Part of me would rather hear the original bands. Part of me is glad to have the music around again, performed by musicians who obviously love it and put on a great show.
2. "we will never make it out alive"
I stopped in at Luxx on a Wednesday night in mid-October because the owner, Mishka, told me to see this band called the Giraffes. I am so happy he did.
Opening with a George Thorogood country-blues jam, they immediately took over the club. They continued on, song after song, with pulsing eighties glam-rock, club-like swing-a-billy, and twisted hard rock fused into a juggernaut of sound. More than anything, they played balls-on rock like the Cult. And helping that impression out was the lead singer, Aaron, who is quite possibly a reincarnation of Ian Westbury— a loud, commanding, deep, masculine voice with a presence. He is not asking you to listen, he is telling you.
The Giraffes were electricity on the stage, handled with professionalism and rock-star arrogance. It was a beautiful thing to witness. The songs were tight, the band was tight, the guitar was played with Metallica/Guns N' Roses verve, and the music pounded your head like brilliant thunder. Each song was so powerful and absorbing that when the music ended, it took me a few seconds to register that it was over, that the spell was broken. These guys are not playing music— they are performing an invocation. My notes peter off about midway through their set because I was so absorbed in their music. I finally managed to write "Wow" at the end.
Their CD, Helping You Help Yourself, is a tour-de-force of rock. "It's You I Pity" is a punk-influenced tirade with a blistering chorus. "Manchester United" is an infectious, rolling, bass-heavy Cult study that explodes wonderfully. "Million Dollar Man" is blues-house rock with early Van-Halen splintering guitars and machine-gun drums, with sex stuck in the middle. "Looting in the A.M." is a funky number with a Rage feel. "I'll Be Your Daddy" is exactly what you would expect it to be— a nasty, dirty, testosterone-driven fest. "After The Orgy" is a moody, sparse, end-of-the-night/looking-at-the-dawn ditty with ghostly vocals. This is a rock and roll band. A great rock and roll band.
Of course, the CD cannot do justice to having the Giraffes scream in your face at a club, but it is a good introduction. And that's fine with them. As their guitarist, Damien, told me after the Luxx gig, "A show should never sound like a CD." Good for them. Great for you if you catch them live.
Stellastarr*'s first official EP, Somewhere Across Forever, was released in November on Tiswas Records. Look out for future Brooklyn/ Manhattan shows at www.stellastarr.com.
The Giraffes will continue touring through the winter and spring. They are working on a compilation CD of Brooklyn bands that "should be heard, but aren't getting the love." They will release a new CD of their own next year sometime. For more information or show dates, email thegiraffes@earthlink.net.

A Talk about Music: Joey Agresta's Let's Not Talk About Music & Viewfound's Memorate
by Daniel Wilson
SEPT 2017 | Music
Music's capacity to elicit echoes of personal memory in listeners has received attention from writers in recent years. Unless one has personally experienced a "Proustian moment" in sound, a cynical reader might dismiss such writings as woolly meanderings. The phenomenon is, of course, real, but finding concrete, universally acceptable examples is problematic because the subjective effect varies from person-to-person.

Liz Pelly's recent article for The Baffler, "The Problem with Muzak," bemoans music journalism's embrace of Spotify. Algorithmically fueled, mood-based playlists such as "Ambient Chill," she argues, are nothing more than "emotional wallpaper" for the distracted, disengaged masses.

Relexifying the Canon of Black Music
Nicholas Payton with Vilde Aaslid
JUNE 2017 | Music
Nicholas Payton's once-fiery blog has been quiet lately. After his provocative 2011 rejection of the word "jazz" in favor of Black American Music, Payton has mostly retreated from the volatile jazz internet.


The Next Localism Commission has been launched to shape future of the localism agenda as power shifts from Whitehall to the Town Hall.
The shift of power, which so far has involved lifting restrictions and scrapping targets, is being stepped up with the Localism Bill and Community Budget pilot schemes. The result of these changes is a transformed operating environment where councils and their partners can develop innovative ways of service provision.

Top Democrat EXPOSED For Country Club Scandal
Imagine being a Republican politician who got captured at an event that forbade African American's from attending.
That lawmaker's career would be finished. He'd be on the front page of each media outlet in the property.
But if you're a Democrat, you get a complete pass.
Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse last week refused to plead for his family's membership in a reportedly all-White shore club in his home state of Rhode Island, calling beach clubs"a long tradition" and saying he hopes the club will acknowledge minority members shortly.
The senator's office on Monday denied that the club has discriminatory policies and stated it does have minority associates.
Whitehouse, D-R.I., was asked about his family's membership in Bailey's Beach Club, formally called Spouting Rock Beach Association, by GoLocalProv in a movie that was posted on Saturday. The interviewer cited remarks Whitehouse made in 2017 he expected the highly exclusive club would start to accept minority associates and requested Whitehouse's response to it allegedly not doing this.
"I think the people who are running the place are still working on that and I'm sorry it hasn't happened yet," Whitehouse said.
GoLocalProv requested Whitehouse whether exclusive clubs together with White members must "continue to exist."
"It's a long tradition in Rhode Island and there are many of them and we just need to work our way through the issues," Whitehouse said.
In 2017, Whitehouse told GoLocalProv "it would be nice if the membership changed a little but it's not my position."
In response to a question on the senator's remarks from Fox News, Whitehouse Communications Director Richard Davidson stated, "The club has no such restrictive policies. The club has had and has members of color."
Bailey's, according to a 2003 New York Times profile of the club, has been "long considered the queen of American resorts."
The Times further reported that Bailey's is "a world of emerald-barnacled dinosaurs attended by uniformed retainers and underwritten by ironclad fiduciary trusts" where "diversity… has made scant inroads."
According to this newspaper, the biracial grandchildren of a single member occasionally visited the hotel, and it did allow members. But, according to a lifelong member quoted by The Times, Black people were "not really" welcome.
The Spouting Rock Beach Association's job page describes itself as"an exclusive private beach club in Newport, Rhode Island."
GoLocalProv, meanwhile, described Bailey's as"the most exclusive club in America" and reported that the senator's wife goes to the club most days throughout the summer.
Whitehouse, among the most vocal Democrats on the high-profile Senate Judiciary Committee, said on the anniversary of George Floyd's death late last month that his committee is"working… to bring lasting change" on"racial injustice."

The Steadfast Tin Soldier
With her signature warmth and lyricism, Newbery winner Cynthia Rylant has crafted a new version of the classic Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale about a tin soldier who falls in love with a ballerina. As in the original story, the tin soldier's love for the beautiful ballerina is thwarted by a goblin. The tin soldier is separated from the other toys and washed down a sewer, where he encounters a rat and gets swallowed by a fish, but somehow, against all odds, he manages to end up back home only to be cast into the nursery fire. Rylant adds her own twist to the end of the tale, however, for in this version, the tin soldier and the ballerina are melded to each other, rather than melted, in the heat of the fire, so they'll never be parted again. Rylant's expert storytelling paired with Corace's stunning illustrations create a beautiful, unforgettable tale of everlasting love.

Die St.-Josefs-Kirche ist eine römisch-katholische Kirche in der Stadt Opole im Stadtteil Szczepanowice im Bistum Opole.

Geschichte
Erste Bestrebungen zum Bau einer Kirche für die Dörfer Szczepanowitz, Vogtsdorf und Winau reichen bis in das 19. Jahrhundert zurück.

Die Realisierung einer Kirche konnte aber erst durch den Pfarrer der Heilig-Kreuz-Kirche Josef Kubis in Oppeln umgesetzt werden. Unter dem Architekten Arthur Kickton aus Potsdam begann der Bau der Kirche im Frühjahr 1928 und konnte bereits 1929 fertiggestellt werden. Im gleichen Jahr wurde die eigenständige Pfarrei gegründet. Am 6. Oktober 1929 wurde das Gotteshaus in Anwesenheit des Breslauer Bischof Adolf Bertram dem Heiligen Josef, dem Schutzpatron der Arbeiter, geweiht. Erster Pfarrer der Gemeinde wurde Karol Tokarz, der das Amt bis 1975 ausübte.

1931 wurde auf dem Nachbargrundstück das Pfarrhaus gebaut. Ende der 1990er wurde die Technik im Inneren der Kirche modernisiert und erneuert. 2004 wurde auf dem Grundstück neben der Kirche ein neues modernes Altersheim gebaut.

The Internet can be a weird and wonderful place. Last week when I had a chest infection my friend decided to diagnose me using her iPhone, symptoms she asked... terrible cough, temperature, feel generally crap I replied. Up came the result "Heart Failure".... OK Internet lesson learned never ever look up symptoms of an illness on the Internet. Besides the fact the Internet can be the Harold Shipman of diagnosis it can in fairness lead you to some brilliant finds.
Last summer NYC Cosmetics launched Blushable Creme Sticks. I was obsessed, to me they basically looked like Nars Multiples but at a fraction of the cost. I Love Nars Multiples, they are soft and pigmented creme blushes in a stick that are convenient to use and leave the prettiest colour but since they are about €42.00 each I wouldn't be rushing out every week to buy one. NYC Blushable Creme Sticks have been raved about on YouTube and on blogs since their release. They get nothing but good reviews; they are said to be soft and creamy (not like Catrice's version which is lumpy and inconsistent). I was going mad to try them out. They are always on must have "drug store" lists. Unfortunately they were not released on this side of the Atlantic (why companies do this is beyond me). Cue pouting by Mags. I was going to pick them up from Ebay but I resisted (but still browsed Ebay frequently for them). This however is not a sad story as I recently discovered that NYC are launching the Creme Sticks in Ireland and the UK. To make this news even better NYC cosmetics are all under a fiver (A FIVER I shout). The Blushable Creme Sticks will be released in or around October and I am excited (are we there yet? are we there yet?) I wish NYC could have released these for the summer (ahem cause we have had a wonderful summer) because they will be perfect for the summer.
The shade I really want to try is called Plaza Pink isn't it pretty.
Have you heard of NYC Blushable Creme Sticks? What products do you want to try that are not available to you?

Case Study: Philip Fernandez & EIT Food
Case Study: Philip Fernandez & EIT Food https://soils.vidacycle.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/EIT21652315917129.jpeg 1600 900 Soilmentor Soilmentor //soils.vidacycle.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/vidacycle_sml-2.png June 6, 2022 June 16, 2022
Case study – Soilmentor organisations:
Philip Fernandez at EIT Food (part 1)
EIT (European Institute of Innovation & Technology) is a body of the EU, working to drive innovation in business, education and research across Europe. We're proud to be supporting EIT Food with Soilmentor, on one of their projects monitoring the impact of regenerative farming on soil health.
EIT Food has created the Regenerative Agriculture Revolution project, aiming to support farmers to learn how to transition to more sustainable methods of farming. This began with a focus on the Mediterranean, as farmers in this region have been disproportionately affected by climate change, and conventional agriculture practices have exacerbated soil degradation and erosion, water scarcity, biodiversity loss and low yields in these areas. These environmental issues, as well as high input costs, have left many farmers struggling for financial survival. Aiming to revert these trends, EIT Food is supporting Southern European farmers to introduce regenerative methods, while measuring ecosystem improvements and spreading public awareness about the benefits of these methods.
We are proud to have worked with the EIT Food team over the last year to create a bespoke soil monitoring protocol that is currently used across 75 farms in Spain and Portugal.
We recently caught up with Philip Fernandez, Agriculture Project Manager at EIT Food, for the first part of a case study to learn more about EIT, and how they use Soilmentor.
EIT soil testing under ovine observation
Could you describe the project you are using Soilmentor to support?
Soilmentor is key to the project we've been developing at EIT, which is looking at how regenerative agriculture practices impact soil health. We're advising and supporting 75 farmers currently, all of whom are being advised by regenerative agriculture experts. We need Soilmentor as a tool to allow us to monitor and record environmental and soil health improvements on these farms.
Soilmentor is key to us for three reasons:
First and foremost, it's a tool that helps farmers appreciate the importance of the soil in regenerative agriculture. This is a big mindset change – instead of focusing solely on crops and what goes on above the ground, it helps them to realise and appreciate what is going on below our feet, and to focus on what they can do to improve soil health.
It's also key for agronomists advising the farmers – another tool (in addition to physical, chemical and soil lab analysis) that they have to monitor progress. As it's cheaper to use, and farmers can use it themselves, it gives a broader picture of the farm. Our EIT Food budget allows us to send one soil sample to the lab per year, per farm. Obviously these are diversified farms with different plots, so Soilmentor helps us to track progress on different plots on the same farm. This is especially important because by definition regenerative agriculture involves diversity – so we can't treat a farm as just one soil sample.
Third, at the level of EIT Food, Soilmentor helps to see if we are meeting our objective to make Europe's food systems healthier and more sustainable. The tool also helps us to monitor whether what we are doing makes sense – whether the practice fits the theory, and to prove to EU tax payers that this is money well spent.
Soil testing with the EIT team
How does your project fit into the wider space that you're seeing out there – and how are people responding to it?
In Southern Europe it's a unique project. There are similar projects in other parts of the world, but it feels like we're doing something that is pioneering and unique in Southern and Eastern Europe where we operate.
I know there have been scientific studies done with a similar focus, and we do not claim to be carrying out a scientific study, but we know this project will be valuable. We're trying to connect regenerative practices to improvements in soil health on many different sizes and types of farmland and ecosystems.
It will be interesting to see if we can draw some valid conclusions – we're not comparing side by side test plots, but if we can see across 75 farms, that in 60 there's been a significant improvement in soil health and soil organic matter, I think that's really valuable!
We're aiming to build a community this year – there's an enormous desire in these farmers who are transitioning to reach out and understand what other farmers are doing. Often regenerative farmers are viewed by their peers as 'the crazy person in the village', with messy fields and weeds everywhere. So they come to our training courses, and meet other farmers doing the same thing in different places. Emotionally this can be very supportive, and we're keen on creating this community. Soilmentor also links to this with the new benchmarking function – even though it's anonymous, it gives a sense that they are not alone, and it's useful to be able to compare and look at how others are doing.
Who has been using the app so far, and why, and what did they think about it?
The main users have been the agronomists and soil experts so far. We've had a soil advisor travelling round to visit 65 farms across Spain and Portugal, conducting tests and using the same methodology and criteria for each, and adding all of this information to the Soilmentor app.
There's a lot of data on the individual farm accounts already, and as soon as we fully launch we'll have farmers using it with their own logins. We're about to release videos to be available on Youtube, which we filmed to show how to do each of the tests. We're going to translate these into Portuguese, Spanish, Italian and Polish.
EIT soil advisor Iris taking baseline measurements
What are you most excited about with this project right now?
We're excited to see the potential of this tool. There have been two important milestones for us recently.
The first was when we finished collecting our baseline measurements across all of the farms, and our soil health expert had inputted this information into each of the Soilmentor accounts.
The second was when we started to look at all of this information, combining it with physical and chemical data from soil samples sent to the lab, and economic information we had for each of the farms, alongside visual soil assessments. Seeing all of these metrics in one place was really exciting for us.
EIT baseline soil tests – root legume nodules & rhizosheaths
What are the next steps? Is there anything else you would like to share?
The next step for us is getting these videos published, as well as collating information on each of the farm's biomes and rainfall metrics so we can get started with using the Regen Platform benchmarking.
We're also excited to plan a webinar for all the farmers, to explain how Soilmentor works, alongside learnings from physical and chemical analysis provided by a member of our team.
We're really proud to be supporting this inspiring project, with such wide-reaching aims and impacts. We admire EIT's genuine focus on supporting the farmers on the ground with this project. The individual farmers are, as Philip put it, EIT's "key stakeholders".
We're excited to continue our collaboration with EIT, and to see how the farmers get on with using Soilmentor after the official launch. Watch this space… we're planning on publishing a second part to this case study as the project develops further!

Does anyone know how i can download something to translate english to chinese, spanish, turkish, polish, persian, farsi, vietnamese...i tried doing it with word, but after translation, just boxes, maybe because supposed to have a pluggin for chinese characters??
Well, you can go to http://babelfish.altavista.com/ but the problem is it doesn't translate to exactly what's typed. If you convert a English phrase to say Spanish then convert the Spanish back in to English, it will read back in broken English. But what do you expect for something free?
You must have the chinese character set on your system to translate to and from Chinese.

May 26th, 2021|News|


DELHI:EROS TIMES: Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, along with Health Minister Satyendar Jain, on Friday, inspected sites for new Aam Aadmi Mohalla Clinics in Paschim Vihar and Saraswati Vihar.
The Chief Minister inspected the sites which were reported non-feasible for Mohalla Clinics by officers. In their report the officials have marked huge number of sites as non-feasible as there was space constraint.
The Chief Minister was amazed on his visit when it was found that these sites, the three that the CM visited on Friday, were having huge empty space, much more than what was required to build Mohalla Clinics.
The officials of the concerned departments were red faced and had no answers when they were confronted by the Chief Minister on the space available and the 'space constraint' report submitted by them.
There is so much space here, where is the constraint? It seems there is something wrong with the inspection done, I have seen three sites today, all of them have space and the report submitted says there is no space, said the Chief Minister to the officials.
