Greta y los Garbo fue un grupo musical formado en Valladolid (España) en 1989 por Beatriz González "Greta" (voz solista), las hermanas de esta, Belén González y Sara González en los coros y, hasta 1994, Ignacio Gómez "Nacho Melody" (teclados y voz). Desde sus orígenes, el grupo consiguió una identidad propia en el panorama musical español por cantar en castellano estilos tan americanos como el soul y el funky. Entre sus éxitos más conocidos, se encuentran las canciones ¡Menuda fiesta!, Hay noches que sueño, Pienso tanto en ti, Quiero volar o Vuelvo a ti. En 2002, Greta y los Garbo anunciaron su disolución.

Historia
Las tres hermanas González: Beatriz, Sara y Belén, habían crecido en su Valladolid natal en un ambiente de admiración por la música, especialmente la música afroamericana de artistas como Aretha Franklin, Diana Ross y otros del mítico sello Motown.

Influida por esas tendencias, Beatriz llegó a participar siendo aún una niña en el programa de Televisión española Ni en vivo, ni en directo, de Emilio Aragón.

Finalmente las tres hermanas, tras diferentes experiencias musicales en varios grupos y en solitario, conocieron al teclista "Nacho Melody" con el que grabaron maquetas de estilo soul. Todo ello les llevó a formar juntos el grupo con el nombre definitivo "Greta y los Garbo". A finales de 1989 fueron fichados por la discográfica Fonomusic, que editó su primer disco ¡Menuda fiesta! (Noviembre de 1990). El álbum contenía el tema del mismo título, versión de The Happening de (The Supremes), y consiguió un arrollador éxito comercial en España. Beatriz fue galardonada como la voz joven más importante del país.

En 1991 salió a la luz Llamada a Mister Brown!, que combinaba versiones de clásicos del soul con sus primeros temas de composición propia. Dos años después editaron Búscame, compuesto por canciones propias, y con temas destacados como The tracks of my tears (original de Smokey Robinson, y que es la única versión incluida en el álbum), Ven o La estrella del Sur, en homenaje a Janis Joplin.

En pleno éxito, ficharon por la discográfica Virgin, con la que publicaron su cuarto disco Deseo (1995), ya como terceto, tras la marcha de Ignacio. El disco, que contiene entre otras canciones Hay noches que sueño, En tu cuerpo y Deseo y las colaboraciones de Mikel Erentxun, Manolo Tena o Teo Cardalda, se convirtió en su primer disco de oro y a punto de rozar el platino con casi 100.000 copias vendidas.

Después de realizar los coros en varios temas del disco Laberinto de (Miguel Bosé), de publicar su último disco de estudio, Greta y los Garbo (1997), (grabado y producido en Londres, y también certificado como disco de oro) y de poner voz a la banda sonora de la serie de televisión Compañeros, en 2000 abandonaron Virgin y anunciaron la publicación de un disco en inglés titulado Evolution & Revolution, autoproducido por ellas, pero que nunca llegó a ver la luz.

Tras participar en distintos proyectos (interpretaron la sintonía de la primera edición del programa Gran Hermano en España, colaboraron en el disco benéfico de Coca-Cola Aquí y ahora, e interpretaron la banda sonora de la película española de animación Manuelita, entre otras cosas), Virgin publicó en el año 2001 el disco Grandes Éxitos, que recopila las canciones más conocidas de sus dos últimos álbumes junto a un tema inédito titulado Quisiera despertar (versión de If you could see me now de (Celine Dion).

Tras colaborar en más proyectos (grabaron el tema Sólo en ti a dúo junto a Raphael para su disco Maldito Raphael, participaron en el disco benéfico contra los malos tratos Hay que volver a empezar con una versión del How come, how long de Babyface y Stevie Wonder, o grabaron las sintonías de los concursos televisivos Aventúrate y Popstars en España), en 2002 anunciaron su disolución para emprender carreras en solitario: Greta como cantante solista y diseñadora de moda; Sara como empresaria de distintos proyectos de ocio y hostelería; y Belén como actriz y directora de cine y documentales, aunque sigue ligada al mundo de la música y participa ocasionalmente en galas o conciertos como el Concierto de mujeres artistas por la Paz celebrado en 2008 en Ramala (Cisjordania).

Greta ejerció otros proyectos musicales, pero fue en 2007 cuando publicó en solitario el disco "Rebirth", cuyo primer sencillo es la canción "Quién será" con un nuevo estilo más pop-rock, pero sin abandonar sus raíces soul. Ese mismo año presentó en un desfile en Nueva York su primera colección de moda "Les Bohémiens by Sara Blanco". Su siguiente propuesta musical fue la creación de un dúo electro-soul junto con el dj Sandro Bianchi, formación que tuvo un primer concierto en Guadalajara, México. Tras esto Beatriz tomó otros caminos alejados de la música y de la fama que consiguió antaño como cantante.

Q: Correlation between amount of rows and amount columns in database performance Is there a correlation between the amount of rows/number of columns used and it's impact within the (MS)SQL database?
A little more background:
We have to store lots of data from measurement devices. These devices ping a string with data back to us around 100 times a day. These strings contains +- 300 fields. Assume we have 100 devices in operation that means we get 10000 records back every day. At our back-end we split these data strings and have to put these into the database. When these data strings are fixed that means we add each days around 10000 new rows into the database. No big deal.
Whatsoever, the contents of these data strings may change during time. There are two options we are considering:

*

*Using vertical tables to store the data dynamically

*Using horizontal tables and add a new column now and then when it's needed.

From the perspective of ease we'd like to choose for the first approach. Whatsoever, that means we're adding 100*100*300=3000000 rows each day. Data has to be stored 1 year and a month (395 days) so  then we're around 1.2 billion rows. Not calculated the expected growth.
Is it from a performance perspective smarter to use a 'vertical' or a 'horizontal' approach?
When choosing for the 'vertical' solution, how can we actual optimize performance by using PK's/FK's wisely?
When choosing for the 'horizontal' solution, are there recommendations for adding columns to the table?

A: I have a vertical DB with 275 million rows in the "values" table.  We took this approach because we couldn't accurately define the schema at the outset either.  Inserts are fantastic.  Selects suck.  Too be fair we throw in a couple of extra doohickies the typical vertical schema doesn't have to deal with.
Have a search for EAV aka Entity Attribute Value models.  You'll find a lot of heat on both sides of the debate.  Too good articles on making it work are

*

*What is so bad about EAV, anyway?

*dave's guide to the eav
My guess is these sensors don't just start sending you extra fields.  You have to release new sensors or sensor code for this to happen.  That's your chance to do change control on your schema and add the extra columns.  If external parties can connect sensors without notifying you this argument is null and void and you may be stuck with an EAV.
For the horizontal option you can split tables putting the frequently-used columns in one table and the less-used in a second; both tables have the same primary key values so you can link less-used to more-used columns.  Also you can use RDBMS's built-in partitioning functionality to split each day's (or week's or month's) data for the others'.

A: Generally, you can tune a table more for inserts (or any DML) or for queries. Improving one side comes at the expense of the other. Usually, it's a balancing act.
First of all, 10K inserts a day is not really a large number. Sure, it's not insignificant, but it doesn't even come close to what would be considered "large" nowadays So, while we don't want to make inserts downright sluggish, this gives you some wiggle room.
Creating an index on the device id and/or entry timestamp will do some logical partitioning of the data for you. The exact makeup of your index(es) will depend on your queries. Are you looking for all entries for a given date or date range? Then index the timestamp column. Are you looking for all entries received from a particular device? Then index the device id column. Are you looking for entries from a particular device on a particular date or date range or sorted by the date? Then create an index on both columns.
So if you ask for the entries for device x on date y, then you are going out to the table and looking only at the rows you need. The fact that the table is much larger than the small subset you query is incidental. It's as if the rest of the table doesn't even exist. The total size of the table need not be intimidating.
Another option: As it looks like the data is written to the table and never altered after that, then you may want to create a data warehouse schema for the data. New entries can be moved to the warehouse every day or several times a day. The point is, the warehouse schema can have the data sliced, diced, quartered and cubed to make queries much more efficient. So you can have the existing table tuned for more efficient inserts and the warehouse tuned for more efficient queries. That is, after all, what data warehouses are for.
You also imply that some of each entry is (or can be) duplicated from one entry to the next. See if you can segment the data into three types:
    Type 1: Data that never changes (the device id, for example)
    Type 2: Data that rarely changes
    Type 3: Data that changes often
Now all you have is a normalization problem, something a lot easier to solve. Let's say the row is equally split between the types. So you have one table with 100 rows of 33 columns. That's it. It never changes. Linked to that is a table with at least 100 rows of 33 columns but maybe several new rows are added each day. Finally, linked to the second table a table with rows of 33 columns that possibly grows by the full 10K every day.
This minimizes the grow-space required by the online database. The warehouse could then denormalize back to one huge table for ease of querying.

Robert Kalich blurs the lines between memoir and fiction to tell a timeless story of love and redemption, with a dash of noir.
David Lazar is a born and bred New Yorker reflecting on the arc of his life as he composes his memoir. Filled with colorful New York characters — childhood friends, business mentors, wealthy associates, organized crime figures, celebrities, and sports stars—and told by a complex and compelling narrator, the city from the 1950s up to the present comes alive. The Big Apple is Lazar's cradle and his cauldron, and a life like Lazar's is unique to New York City.
A professional sports gambler, Lazar is haunted by the immoral nature of the very work that made him rich. His innermost being is shaken as he reimagines the dehumanizing nature of his work and former life. Did he sell his soul to make it? Is there redemption for wealth based on corruption and violence? If he is completely honest, does he risk losing what he cherishes the most: the love and respect of his wife and son? Lazar has a decision to make. This is the story of a perilous journey into the soul of a man who risks losing far more than he's ever won.
Welcome to the world of David Lazar, the world of doubt and self-doubt, where life is lived as a novel and a novel is truer than life.
Robert Kalich is the Author of several non-fiction books and two previous novels: The Investigation of Ariel Warning and The Handicapper, which was a national best-seller published by Crown. He co-founded a film company, The Kalich Organization, with his twin brother Richard who is an internationally acclaimed author. He lives with his wife and son in New York City and North Salem, N.Y.

In front of my flashing knee
The hand you passed over your eyes
a tinkling brings certainty
to the circle I will make
sometimes, however,
the sky dies
our shreds do
The memory ripped into shreds, like the body. Memories tinkling in seeds of ephemeral time, now forever infinitely inhabiting silence. Crystallised, the intuition of anticipated death that is destiny and freedom, giving birth to words poised on the fragile texture of a petal, on the lifeless flesh of the written stone. Suicide. Death.Flowers. Stone. Sea…Poetry
The sky dies in this blue which is always insinuation and desire, transformation, potency. The sky dies each day while the premonition of mourning is sketched in the soul. Every moment, every hour, every instant taking over its appearance, drawing itself as it fades away in a time that is now only an image.
Appearance overlapping experience, a double of life in the dream-world that was taken over by the hours and the days, Paloma Navares conjugates fragments of reality and poetry which, in her hands, possess the magic quality of making feelings visible. Like a necklace of "forget- me- nots or a cascade of prayers, her most recent works, dedicated to death, suicide or insanity, are so profound in their simplicity as complex in their unfolding beyond themselves. Conceived under the stimuli of someone else's words, which, like fingerprints and marks pulled out of the air, emerge in constellations of invented signs, seen, felt; the artist's work is at the point where imagery and poetic vision meet.
Maria Zambrano said "the poet's thing is never the conceptual thing of thought but rather the thing itself, in all its complexity, the ghostly dreamed thing; that which is invented; that which was and that which will never be". And this is the essence of the disperse reality materialized and poetically recreated by Navares, to transcend it, to carry it beyond its own limits in metaphoric images that relive the experience of this "writers' art", which, following up the parallelism with literature, makes us think of the logic of an equation that makes artist and receiver integral parts in a process of search and discovery.
Paloma was and is a passenger with a profound instantaneous vision, who has waded through centuries of images in search of these universal truths with which to continue analyzing the present. Through a head which is a replica and a double, a fragment of an identity while at the same time the supporting media, she carries us subtly towards the female voices whose stories she has made her own. She is capable of seeing the echo of all humanity in the voice of an injured soul like her own. Now, as in a former series in which she meditated on pictorial conventions and women's identity through the Venuses and other female iconography, the artist knows that no image, even though it has been associated for thousands of years, can induce us to evoke that which is now extinct – it is a double emptiness, merely an oblivious copy, a shadow trapped in the textures of the material as in the case of the poet, each image elaborated in an art code - that is to say, conceived to generate consciousness – is the fruit of this profound individual restlessness, which, since the beginning of philosophy, continues to make sense out of life
Paloma Navares insists on this alchemistic ritual which can convert a simple object or matter in the formal equivalent of an abstract thought and follows the logia of the desire to be there, the aesthetic pulsation or ancestral impulse that encourages and makes sense out of all creation, producing art works of everyday objects like jars or curtains. With a touch of her hands she gives a form of its own to things that already have a conceptual entity in our spirit, being able to name, in matter, that which already exists in our mind, in our soul. Turning a simple seascape into the analogical vision of a suicide, that supreme dissolute act, the complex and real "thing" the artist faces. possessing life, experience, senses…and transforming it into a visual meditation, fogging the simple images of symbolic qualities in which to relive myths, ancient or recent (like the ones she now writes below her work) this is one of the constants in Paloma Navares' art. She knows, even today, when artistic practice breaks into the conceptual fields of other disciplines , it is still worth rethinking the present, realizing that any cultural heritage must be transferred, recreated, invented in these new visual codes that art discovers in each new age, renewing and assimilating them.
Filled with her ambition to continue building on the bases of the immensely vast legacy made up of words and things that, paraphrasing Foucault, constitute our deepest cultural identity, the work of Paloma Navares manifests, without renouncing (much to the contrary) all the new technologies and methodologies that should supposedly "dehumanize" the creative act, taking it into the terrain of possible "no-authorship" – clearly a humanistic vocation, communicative and narrative that can be seen in all of her photographic images, sculptures, drawings, actions and sculptural assemblies, in her installations.. each of them mirroring what we call beauty. Because, as Stefano Zecchi demonstrated, through the spiritual qualities of matter resulting from harmony, and empathy with respect to appearance, works of art fulfil their mission as vehicles of a superior knowledge, making a different understanding of reality possible, as if, suddenly, we were illuminated by it.
Concise, never excessive, conjugating in the same aesthetic code different motifs and materials, almost always intimately related to her own biography, (usually using images of herself, parallel to her own life stages) the works of Paloma Navares move easily among the contemporary logia of fragmentation, but in no case do they need serial interrelating in order to spread their meaning. More than fragments understood as such, her sculptures- like these heads from which the falling tears are flowers or glass or the transparent hands that embrace pain and hope, taking them on as their her own - like the photographs and other works on different supporting media are complete analogous images, works of art closed in around themselves, complete. Works that go beyond the limits of their own temporality to trace an arch that takes in the before, the after and the now, unique and the same.
Just as with the works of a poet (also complete in each single verse) every one of Paloma Navares' images can function as a new text (sometimes a whole paragraph, sometimes only a few lines…) an autonomous formation which influences and relates to the universal questions she ponders over once and again in her work. In this context it is easier to understand the recuperation and recycling Paloma Navares submits her own images to, in order to give them a new chance to express themselves in this cohesive and coherent narration which is all of her work. In this way we can explain her inclusion in the film of the artist floating upside down in the water, or how we should consider her using the resin heads just like the designer women from one of her other series. Hands, (the sensitive extremity "par excellence"), the bust (recipient of emotions), eyes, head…all of these iconographies so often explored by her intervene in this new staging.
Those bubble baths where Paloma herself slept her almost-death, are now also the curled foam of these waves we can imagine pulling the surrendered bodies of those who took the road to suicide into the dark immensity of the water. The necklace of (forget-me-nots) that hang from the transparent flesh of the mannequin, now shroud what was once an adornment, make-up, frivolity.
Always living within a visually apprehensible reality, they are now the echoes of the voices and the lives of those who brushed up to death, searched for it and maybe, died little by little in life, desiring it, feeling it come..the story line that Paloma Navares uses to enter a conceptual territory, death. Now we can see that it has always run parallel in her work.
Now, and again with materials emanating metaphoric qualities, like stone, glass and images of profound symbolism, like the sea( the "water cradle" that rocks us and calls to us with the seductive voice of its waves), the shell, the rock bed-path-via crucis, as well as with the colours of life, those of the flowers- Paloma Navares talks with those poets and writers who faced death, breakdowns, suicide or insanity. We are not, then, in this borderland where the limits between reality and fiction dissolve. We are in that other revealed, poetized reality in that other image dimension which is both a document and a creation.
Without dramatics, contained as is her personality, with the profound serenity that is always transcendental, the artist accepts pain as an experience that can be shared and understood, and she makes it tangible with her own lines, in her writing of the verses that have poised day after day in the symbolic pages which are flowers and stones. Stones and flowers, soul maps where the corporal experience of contact with the sea water and the pebbles that were first fun, intimacy, memory and have become this sort of incredible "library". Like little notes piled one on top of the other, these pebbles sculpted by the water and time and the flowers whose tenderness can almost be felt, produce a strange new sensation when they invite us to decipher their messages and to guess who they belong to ( as if once they are written they don't become forever ours) these words, so eloquent in their silence.
At sometime, one day we have all written our names in the special place which is a tree, a wall, a leaf, Paloma Navares turns this innocent, intimate, banal act of spontaneous writing on an aleatory surface into a powerful memory exercise in honour of those who were brave enough to share their deepest fears, their memories, their melancholy and even the words with which they signed their goodbye. Rewritten in an intimate anonymous performance, these same words that now flutter over stones and flowers, tracing the stations on this memorial journey guided by the words of Paul Celan, Alejandra Pizarnik, Ann Sexton, Sylvia Plath, Virginia Wolf Cesare Pavese, Charles Beaudelaire, Albert Camus, Horacio Quiroga, Franz Kafka and so many others. Taking over this polyphonic echo and carrying it to the same conceptual territory, Paloma Navares makes all of their lives, emotions and creeds seem like one single voice and a unique spiritual substance in these pebbles and in these flowers, in these simple fragments of nature that know no limits nor borders, nationalisms nor flags, races, sexes nor ideals, coming together thus, so simply and totally, in these inescapable experiences that are death or insanity, breaking down, suicide, desperation.
In these suggestive multicoloured tapestries formed by the petals written by Paloma Navares (that not only refer to the custom of honouring the dead with flowers, but are also a vital evocation of life, like when they recreate a blossom- filled landscape or serve as an attribute of feminine beauty) like these accumulations of pebbles (that also suggest, by extension, the idea of the tombstone and children's games) or these photographs drawn and written on, in which the horizon is coloured with light and sentiment, in each and every one of the works in the series "the injured soul" we can find the same complementary duality that sees life and death as the same condition of existence.
In this way, from Paul Celan's parents' death in the concentration camps to the suicides of so many women who chose to leave this world prematurely or so many men and women who, after rubbing up against the limits of the bearable and not being able to stand it … got lost in insanity…all of those extreme situations, painful and heartrending that exemplify, illustrate and remind us of the verses of those contemporary myths which have whittled the polyhydric forms of our consciousness, humanised and made comprehensible, almost close, in the surprising ritual of symbolic renovation in which, with words of death like seeds of life and hope, Paloma Navares once again turns herself into a channel of privileged transmission capable of shaking our soul and making her own eyes ours.

Microsoft Store adds '60 fps+' badge for supported Xbox Series X|S games
By Asher Madan Neowin @@ashermadan · Sep 29, 2020 13:22 EDT with 7 comments
The focus of Microsoft's next-generation consoles appears to be higher frame rates, in addition to ray tracing and overall performance improvements. To that effect, the company has introduced a new badge on the Microsoft Store that notifies gamers of the supported frame rates for games. This morning, we noticed that the Yakuza: Like a Dragon Store listing included a '60 fps+' tag to denote the frame rates for the game on Xbox Series X|S, along with tags such as 'Smart Delivery' and '4K Ultra HD'.
The company is aiming for 4K 120 FPS for the Xbox Series X, and this means that the title will feature a 60 FPS mode, but it could go higher. You can take a look at the console's specifications that feature a strong CPU and GPU to deliver this level of performance.
Yakuza: Like a Dragon is an upcoming third-person action game from Sega, and it was recently moved up to November 10 from November 13 to coincide with the Xbox Series X|S launch. Instead of focusing on the infamous Kazuma Kiryu, Yakuza: Like a Dragon follows the story of Ichiban Kasuga, a low-ranking grunt of a low-ranking family in Tokyo. Taking cues from the past Yakuza games, Yakuza: Like a Dragon is a lengthy role-playing experience that features dynamic combat, unique jobs, odd mini-games, and much more.

With two seasons left and book readers totally in the dark about what is yet to come, now is the time to gather all of those wild Game of Thrones theories and consider the fact that some of them might be pretty spot on. Like the latest Game of Thrones theory about Sansa and Jon that results in the two of them being endgame material. That's right, Sansa and Jon could get married by the end of Game of Thrones and it would actually make a lot of sense. When we last saw the two oldest Stark children, they were reigning over the North, but one of the most important revelations from the Season 6 finale of Game of Thrones was that we learned about Jon Snow's true parentage. He is the daughter of Lyanna Stark and Raegar Targaryen, making him Sansa's cousin rather than haf-brother. And that's a little better, right?
Popular YouTuber Alt Shift X is known for posting videos of popular Game of Thrones fan theories and the latest one ties some of George R.R. Martin's other works, prequels, in with Sansa's fate. The theory of Sansa and Jon ending up together isn't super out there, as far as politics go, but do we have enough time left in the series to make it work?
In the Game of Thrones world, family members marrying each other, sleeping together, or just plain flirting is no new thing. But when you have giants, dragons, dogs eating humans, and wars breaking out every other day, some things tend to get brushed over.
The Game of Thrones theory about Sansa and Jon getting married has to do with a character by the name of Lady Ashford in one of his prequel novels, A Knight of The Seven Kingdoms. Lady Ashford's unfortunate suitors strongly resemble Sansa's own past relationships and husbands, except for the final man who Lady Ashford ends up with, who happens to be a Targaryen. And who, currently, is the only male Targaryen we know to be living? That would be our very own Jon Snow, of course.
The evidence surrounding the theory is pretty legit, though, and could have some truth to it, given the benefits and dramatics it would bring to the final two seasons.
In the book, Lady Ashford is pursued by a Baratheon, Lannister, Tyrell, Hardyng, and then a Targaryen. In the series, Sansa has been betrothed to men from each of those houses as well, except Hardying, but in the books, Sansa was linked to a Hardyng instead of Ramsay Bolton. So the similarities, and order of them, are pretty striking.
At the end of Season 6, Sansa was ready to rule the North with Jon, as he was proclaimed King of the North. But there was Littlefinger lurking nearby, an obvious plan churning in his head. If Jon is able to take the iron throne, and it is proven beyond a doubt that he is a Targaryen, he will have the support of the North, and Sansa, being a true Stark, will help solidify that bond if they are to be married.
Daenerys is finally sailing for Westeros, ready to claim the throne that she believes to be rightfully hers, so if Jon is there to step in the way of that and reclaim it for his own, if only to overthrow Cersei, there is going to be a problem. And if Jon is already married to Sansa, the hope of a Dany and Jon marriage to rule the iron throne together is also shot, meaning more drama. And we need some to fill up these final two seasons of Game of Thrones.
Can Sansa Get A Break Though? Like, For Real?
Literally every one of Sansa's husbands or husbands-to-be were awful or just awful for her. Joffrey was kind of the worst and Tyrion was drunk for pretty much their entire time together. Then, Sansa was promised Loras Tyrell and she was super excited, and it would have totally worked if he wasn't totally gay and if Tywin hadn't put a kibosh in that right away.
Lastly, there was Ramsay, who made us actually miss Joffrey. Can Sansa get a break and have some sort of a happy ending maybe? I know, she and Sansa grew up as brother and sister, but they were also never that close and he would be perfect for her. Also, he already as a thing for redheads, so there's that.
At this point, it's kind of hard to imagine Jon ever leaving the North, and finding some reason to take the iron throne from Cersei, but if he learns that it is his birthright and that Cersei is too dangerous with all of that power, it might be what leads him to lead yet another war.
The Game of Thrones theory about Sansa and Jon may not be ideal for some fans, and others probably don't care much for Sansa now that we have Cersei on the Iron Throne and Dany about to roll up to try and take it from her, but Sansa has survived this long for a reason. She hasn't gone through all of the Hellish scenarios George R.R. Martin could think of for her, only to be cast aside at the end of the series. There could very well be big plans for her, and this pretty solid theory could be part of them.

Kazakhstan plans to apply tax incentives to develop print media
By Yekiterina Yeliseyeva in Nation on 6 October 2019
NUR-SULTAN – State Politics in Mass Media Department Director Bahniyaz Karashina announced the state plan to apply tax incentives to develop Kazakh print media at the Sept. 27 Ministry of Information and Social Development public council session.
"The amendments to the tax code provide for zero-rate Value Added Tax (VAT) for print media scheduled for a 10-year period starting in 2021. In order to stimulate the development of print media and promote content on the Internet, a zero rate will be provided with an online version being compulsory. In addition, this norm provides an additional source for developing the content of domestic print media and will give a massive start to the transition of the media to the digital format," she said.
The amendments to the mass media law provide for removing the regional state information order from the public procurement system and forming uniform rules and methods for making state information orders public at the national and regional levels.
"The status and powers of the national and regional commission on the formation of state information policy will be legally enforced. There is also a proposal to introduce a number of new concepts, such as the Internet portal of open dialogue, the listening state and public interest as part of the amendments to the law on access to information. The bill provides for amendments related to providing access to information for people with disabilities," she said.
Karashina noted the bill involves introducing five key norms – tax incentives for print media, developing a unified system of state information policy, lifting the ban on advertising a trademark on beer and wine in domestic media, establishing an authorised body competence to determine the language of television and radio channels broadcasting with state participation and improving the legislation on access to information.
"The bill is currently open to discussion. We have already introduced it to state bodies; there are certain nuances. Since we are amending the tax code, this requires a confirmation from the National Budget Commission. Therefore, the introduction of the bill into the Mazhilis (lower chamber of Parliament) is scheduled for the end of this year to the beginning of the next, after all the procedures are gone through," she added.

Many things this holiday season put me in Snoopy dance mode: decorating the house, trimming the tree, hot cocoa and s'mores, caroling, and, oh yeah, our trip to Disney World this week. Christmas spirit is ON at the Boswell house. But just as important is teaching my kids to give back, help others less fortunate, and focus on the real reason we celebrate Christmas. Better said, put Christ in Christmas. So we donate to Operation Christmas Child, buy gifts for our sponsored Angel Tree child (which the kids LOVED), and serve at the Carpenter's Table, our local food pantry (check it out at www.thecarpenterstable.org) But is it enough? I struggle with the push and pull of Christmas: of wanting to give thoughtful, generous gifts to my family and friends but worrying about how my focus on that shifts me from what I should be celebrating: the miracle of the Messiah's birth. Shopping for gifts, you can easily get sucked into the vortex of the commercial-driven madness, the quest for the ever elusive "perfect" gift. It's a conundrum, to be sure. So I've decided that it's all about BALANCE. To joyfully give and teach my kiddos the same. To meditate and pray. To share time with loved ones. And anything that can point me to the manger, to Bethlehem, to Jesus. Now THAT deserves a Snoopy dance!
Sherry, I just subscribed to your blog! I'm sorry to say I didn't realize until now that you decided to go with Music to My Ears! Anyway, I keep the decorations simple. The house looks festive but it doesn't take that long to do. I don't drag my kids to the mall to sit on Santa's lap. We shop for the kids early, but don't go overboard on presents for each other or anyone else. What I've noticed is the kids don't need the "hype." They like the lights on the tree and singing Christmas carols when we get in the car. Have a blast at Disney. I'm going for the first time in January!
Hi Sherry, wanted to check in and say wonderful post. Since I have a toddler, it's easy for me to control the "madness" at this point in her life. Like the previous poster, we try to keep things simple. We have a small tree, an Advent calendar, an Advent wreath, the "fab five" in their Christmas gear and not much else. We "adopt" a needy family through the employee assistance fund at my hospital every year. I also use all my leftover reward points from various credit cards/rewards programs to donate gifts to less fortunate families. It's not easy to stay sane in all of the Christmas craziness, but I find just being conscious of slowing down during the day helps a lot too. Not to mention beginning the day with a prayer and ending it with one, too–helps tremendously!
Have a blast at the World, I'll be thinking of you guys and wishing you safe travels, no lines and lots of family fun. Enjoy every minute.
Thanks for making comments AND subscribing to my blog! Whohoo-I actually have people following me! Y'all have made my day 🙂 And I agree that LESS is MORE when it comes to getting in the Christmas spirit (except for planning a trip to Disney…LOL). Loved your ideas too-nice to see that I am not a grinch in my thinking on this!
I agree with Stephanie…we have made an effort to keep the madness under control while Sarah is still little. Santa will bring 3 gifts this year (because that's how many gifts Baby Jesus received from the Wise Men). Instead of just dropping money in the pail, we stopped to talk to the Salvation Army belllringer to let her explain to Sarah what they do with the money. We spend storytime each evening reading traditional Christmas stories and talking about the important lessons in each one and we added a few new pieces to our Fisher Price Little People Nativity. So far the biggest joy of this season has been shopping with Sarah for our Angel Tree child. Instead of rushing to mail Christmas Cards, we send handwritten Thankyou notes in Happy New Year Cards. So, I have to say that Christmas is not a very stressful time in the Youngblood House. My only Christmas wish is to keep it that way!


Senior Therapy is a growing field of therapy concentrating on both the physical and mental health of elderly individuals. As we grow older, our bodies and minds tend to fail us in a number of ways. From decreased memory to debilitating pain, there are very few senior citizens lucky enough to forego the effects of old age.
Senior therapy seeks to improve our lives, and the lives of our aged friends and family through physical and psychological treatment. Are you considering senior therapy for yourself or a loved one? Keep reading to discover why this cutting-edge form of therapy is so important, what types of senior therapy are available, and where you can find senior therapy near you.
According to the NCOA (National Council on Aging), one in four American seniors aged 65+ fall each year.
Falls are the leading cause of injury resulting in hospital admission in older adults.
There is a 5%-7% chance of developing dementia after age 60, that jumps to 25%-50% after age 85 (alz.co.uk).
Several conditions known to increase the risk of cardiovascular disease also increase the risk of Alzheimer's. As many as 80 percent of individuals with Alzheimer's also have cardiovascular disease (Alzheimer's Association, alz.org).
Keeping consistent and strong social connections and maintaining a mentally active lifestyle while aging can lower the risk of cognitive decline and Alzheimer's.
As you can see, these statistics represent just the tip of the iceberg when highlighting senior injury and illness. That's where the importance of senior therapy comes into play! Through therapy seniors can reduce the risk of injury, re-injury or illness. Senior therapy also plays an integral role in alleviating the symptoms of age-related ailments including chronic pain, cardiovascular disease, dementia, Parkinson's, Multiple Sclerosis (MS), and depression.
There are several different types of therapy available specifically to seniors. The term "therapy" is broad and involves anything from major physical rehabilitation (like what someone would need after a stroke), to group counseling to help treat depression.
Occupational is a varied therapy practice focused on helping seniors independently perform everyday tasks as a result of stroke, injury, arthritis, or dementia. This includes fine-motor tasks like eating, drinking, and hygiene practices that demand small and precise movements.
Physical therapy for seniors is generally broken up into several specialties: Geriatric, orthopedic, cardiopulmonary, and neurological. Combined, these assist in the recovery of illnesses including Alzheimer's, heart attack, and broken bones. The goal is to strengthen/restore muscles and bones, increase fitness/mobility, and reduce pain (asccare.com/4-types-physical-therapy-seniors/).
This senior therapy is lesser known, but crucial to those stricken with breathing complications. Respiration therapy addresses breathing problems due to illness of the chest and lungs. Massage and other gentle techniques, along with breathing exercises, are how respiration therapists treat patients.
Those afflicted with dementia, Alzheimer's, stroke, or other brain-damaging sicknesses are sometimes left with diminished speaking ability. Many elderly individuals are unable to form words, speak coherently, or even eat or drink without the assistance of speech therapy.
In recent years, psychotherapy has been found just as effective for the elderly as it is for the young. Feelings of dependency, loss of loved ones, fear of isolation and death, and more age-related scenarios are examined and addressed by a trusted medical professional (ncbi.nlm.nih.gov).
Group therapy is a proven tactic for easing loneliness, fear, and uncertainty associated with aging. Typically led by a medical professional or experienced speaker, group therapy for seniors provides an outlet to not only express deep set feelings and seek advice, but to connect with others in a social setting.

Another emerging form of senior therapy is senior support groups. Support groups tackle key issues facing the elderly and their loved ones. Topic matter may include dementia, finances, loss of mobility, and death. These support groups are typically led by a clinical psychologist and expert in the field of social work. Support groups are commonly organized by nursing homes, assisted living facilities, community centers, and churches, and are open to the public free of charge.

Preston North End were the biggest winners in League One on Saturday - and the Deepdale club were not even in action.
The top three in the division all lost as Bristol City, Swindon Town and MK Dons fell to defeats, giving fourth-placed Preston a timely boost ahead of their FA Cup showdown with Manchester United.
Leaders City welcomed play-off-chasing Sheffield United to Ashton Gate looking for a seventh league win in eight matches.
However, Steve Cotterill's men slipped to just their second home league loss of the campaign as United walked away 3-1 winners.
There was no sign of what was to come at half-time as Matt Smith poked home his seventh league goal for City.
United turned the game on its head when Matt Done tapped in the equaliser 10 minutes after the break, while the same man doubled the lead in the 77th minute and Jamie Murphy slotted home the third in the closing stages to send Nigel Clough's men fifth.
Luckily for City, neither of their nearest rivals could take advantage of their rare defeat - second-placed Swindon also throwing a 1-0 half-time lead away in a 3-1 defeat at Scunthorpe United.
Mark Cooper's side have now lost their past two in League One, but remain second as MK Dons were beaten 4-2 at Gillingham, with manager Justin Edinburgh continuing their revival since taking over last weekend.
Oldham Athletic were also unable cut the gap to the teams at the top, Samuel Szmodics' second-minute goal enough to earn struggling Colchester United a crucial three points.
Seventh-placed Chesterfield were shocked by a 3-2 loss at home to Leyton Orient, Dean Cox's dramatic winner in the 11th minute of injury time moving last season's play-off finalists off the foot of the table.
Izale McLeod scored a hat-trick as Crawley Town condemned Barnsley to a humiliating 5-1 defeat in their first match of the post-Danny Wilson era, while Crewe Alexandra made it three wins on the spin in a 2-0 beating of Fleetwood Town.
Doncaster Rovers are just one point off the top six as they followed their 5-0 win at Crawley in midweek with a 3-0 beating of Yeovil Town - who slipped to foot of the table.
In other matches, Peterborough United defeated Rochdale 2-1 and Port Vale were 1-0 winners at Walsall.

The influence of numerous columns published in popular newspaper supplements where so-called "experts" shower us with all kinds of advice is not to be underestimated. These columns do not only form people's opinions and change habits of entire nations; every once in a while they can also provoke large-scale polemics involving wider audiences as well as more professional circles. In the area of health and nutrition such fervent reactions are to be expected, but it is a completely different thing when they are brought about by a mathematical question.
Parade magazine, which is distributed as a supplement of more than four hundred American newspapers every Sunday and reaches around seventy million readers, has long featured a column called "Ask Marilyn". It is edited by Marilyn vos Savant who became famous in the 1980s when she was listed in the Guinness Book of World Records for the highest IQ on the planet. In her column, she has been answering various questions and solving problems posed by readers for more than twenty years.
Could the most intelligent woman in the world be wrong?
Of course, all of this would have gone unnoticed if it had not provoked a storm of critics aimed at Mrs. vos Savant. Parade magazine received more than ten thousand letters sent by outraged readers among which a great many were teachers of mathematics. Nearly one thousand letters were signed with names followed by a PhD and numerous letters were written on sheets of paper bearing the titles of renowned American universities (many of these letters are available on Marilyn's website: www.marilynvossavant.com). All the critics agreed that Marilyn was misleading readers with her answer, because the probability of winning could not be changed by choosing the other door. One professor of mathematics was very blunt: "You blew it, and you blew it big! … As a professional mathematician, I am very concerned with the general public's lack of mathematical skills. Please help by confessing your error and in the future being more careful." Another was so upset that he ended up calling Marilyn herself a goat.
Marilyn was not discouraged by the critics – after all, she was objectively proven to be smarter than all her critics in terms of her IQ – and in one of her following columns she gave teachers across the country the task to play this simple game with their students in class (without real goats and cars, obviously) and send her their results. She later published these results and they were completely consistent with her advice that in the case in question, it was actually wiser to choose the other door.
The debate brought about by the Monty Hall problem falls into the category of what mathematicians call conditional probability. Simply put, this is a branch of mathematics dealing with the question of adapting the probability of an event taking place when new data enters the equation. The essence of the problem which provoked such a widespread and emotionally charged reaction from readers was that most overlooked a crucial piece of information. It is very important to take into consideration the fact that the game-show host already knows which door hides the car.
In the second part of the challenge when the host opens the door which hides the goat, he already knows that there is no car behind this door. If the host did not possess this knowledge and was to open the doors completely at random- as the contestant must– the probability of guessing correctly really would not be increased by changing the decision. In this case, the more than one thousand readers who had concluded that Marilyn was not familiar with the basics of mathematics and sent angry letters to the magazine would have been right. Our mathematical intuition suggests that the probability that the car is behind one or the other door when two of the doors are still closed remains equal. This would of course be true, if there were not for the host who knows more than we do.
This problem is most easily clarified, if we take a look at the action from behind the scenes where we can see which door hides the car and which hides the goats. If the contestant guesses where the car is in his first try, the host will open any of the other two doors in which case it is unwise for the contestant to change his decision. However, this only applies if the contestant chooses the door which hides the car in his first try for which the probability is 1:3 or approximately 33 %. But if in his first try the contestant chooses the door which hides a goat, the host will have to open the only remaining door which hides the other goat. In this case, the contestant would be wise to switch the doors because that would certainly win him the car.
If the contestant chooses the goat in his first try it is always to his advantage to switch doors while this does not apply if he chooses the car. The probability that he will choose the goat in his first try is 2:3 while the probability that he will choose the car is only 1:3. If the contestant follows the tactic of switching doors, the probability of winning the car is 2:3; if he refuses to switch doors the probability decreases by half and is only 1:3.
If the contestant chooses to switch doors when the host offers him the chance, he will win the car every time when he chooses the goat on his first try. This choice will win him the car in twice as many cases as it would if he decides not to switch. The probability of guessing correctly increases from 33% to 66%.
If you are having difficulties understanding this right now, do not worry. Many mathematicians needed quite some time to clarify the issue.
Let us conclude with a similar puzzle that you can try to solve yourselves: a family with two children has at least one boy. What is the probability that it also has a girl if we presume that on average an equal number of boys and girls are born? Of course, the correct answer is not 50%.
