A DEATH notice is a listing placed by the family, usually through the funeral director. They will appear as paid Newspaper ads in the Classifieds or in Obituaries.
Death notices are much shorter than obituaries and usually give very minimal information. A death notice usually contains the person's name, city of birth, time and place of death and some include the cause of death. In addition, the time, date and location of the funeral can also be included as well.
Click here and let us help you announce a death and write a funeral notice.
eziFunerals has partnered with some of the best independent funeral directors in Australia. Funeral directors in Australia, listed with eziFunerals are small family owned businesses that provide a flexible, personalised service and real value for money when compared to the large corporate brands.

Q: How to find help on PyQt5 classes? Where can I find details on a specific class of PyQt5. Surely I can use the help(module) command within Python IDLE but it doesn't provide all necessary information.
For example: How do I find about all possible functions and their respective arguments available to QWidget class from PyQt5.QtWidgets module?

A: There is the API reference, but the actual class description pages only link to the respective C++ class page. I'm afraid that is your best option for now, until the PyQt maintainers update their documentation (which is based on the C++ docs anyway).

A: It's a little buried, but there is Qt for Python / PyQt5 / PySide2 documentation online:

*

*Main Documentation Page

*Main Wiki Page (how to get started, what to download, etc.
Examples:

*

*The PySide2.QtCore.Qt module

*The "All Classes" page for Qt5, accessed through a Qt 5.13.0 link currently

Do you have a limited liability company or corporation that you are no longer using? If so, perhaps you chose not to renew it when the annual renewal came around. Does the entity still hold assets? If so, the consequences could be significant.
Business entities registered in the state of Nevada must be renewed annually by filing the proper form and paying the correct fees to the Nevada Secretary of State's office. If you miss the due date, your entity will be in default. If the business remains in default for a year, the State will revoke the entity's charter. Once revoked, if the entity is not reinstated within 5 years, it will be permanently revoked. As explained here, once it is permanently revoked, the entity may still be revived.
Should I Reinstate My LLC?
The question becomes whether it is worth reinstating or reviving the revoked LLC or corporation. That depends. Technically, a revoked entity loses "the right to transact business" under Nevada statute. This may not be a problem it nothing is held in the company.
However, if the LLC, for example, still owns a piece of real property and you wish to sell that property, there could be a problem. Executing and recording the deed to transfer the property is arguably transacting business, which the company technically would not have the right to do.
The issue may arise with the title company who may refuse to insure title to the property since the revoked company's officer did not have authority to "transact business" and transfer the property. In this situation, you may be stuck with reinstating or reviving the business entity in order to get the title insurance company to insure title.
Depending upon how long the company has been revoked, the past fees and penalties could add up to several thousand dollars. If you want to know how much is owed to reinstate your entity, click here. If your entity has been permanently revoked, you may need to call the Secretary of State to find out how much is owed.
Rather than simply abandoning the entity, you may wish to formally dissolve the entity. This requires filing Articles of Dissolution and paying a small fee, but you then have the right to wind down and distribute the company's assets pursuant to the plan of dissolution that is adopted. And avoid potential problems later.

The commerce platform with the fastest growth rate is VTEX, according to the IDC Market Share
VTEX October 5, 2020
If 2020 has taught us anything, it is that we are truly stronger together. Since our last round of funding of $140M USD from Softbank in the fall of 2019, we have been working tirelessly to further strengthen our commerce platform capabilities and grow our presence in new markets. In doing so, this past year we've been acknowledged as a Visionary by Gartner, a Leader in the IDC MarketScape, and the fastest growing commerce platform worldwide according to IDC market share data.
Our success is collaborative in nature thanks to the hard-working ecosystem of VTEX employees, partners and most importantly customers, who see the value we bring to the market.
We are excited to grow quickly in new and existing markets, and offer even more brands a platform that embraces the future of commerce, which is about being collaborative, leveraging marketplaces, and delivering customer experiences that are second-to-none.
Mariano Gomide de Faria, VTEX co-founder and co-CEO
Between our valued partners, cherished VTEX team members and amazing customers, we wouldn't be where we are today! In September 2020, less than a year from our last round, we closed on a Series D funding of $225 million USD, earning us a $1.7 billion USD valuation and the coveted status of tech unicorn.
This injection of funding will undoubtedly support us in achieving our mission to accelerate digital commerce transformation around the world.
Although we were founded back in 2000, our real catapult started when our first, largest customer in Brazil, Walmart, embarked on their digital transformation journey with us. It was 2007 and with over 500 stores, this formidable enterprise-class retailer pushed VTEX to build a fully integrated solution. It was here, where we built the core functionality for commerce, marketplace and OMS (order management system).
From there, our modern, microservices-based architecture and powerful business and developer tools have enabled us to future-proof our customers' businesses and free them from software updates. The rise of VTEX as a MACH architecture – microservice-based, API-first, cloud-native, headless architecture and commerce technology provider is confirmation of the importance our customers place on agility, flexibility, and the ability to quickly innovate. As we continue to invest in our collaborative commerce solutions and customer success teams, delivering a flexible and easy to use solution that doesn't require upgrades is always top of our mind to ensure our customers' business is future-proof.
This could not have been more true as when COVID-19 disrupted the world.
As the global pandemic radically shifted how goods are being bought and sold, a record number of global enterprise brands from Fortune 1000 companies are turning to VTEX.
Partnering with VTEX has simplified our online ordering process and expanded our contactless pick-up and delivery, giving us the agility and flexibility to not only keep customers at the heart of everything we do, but also do it safely and effectively in unprecedented times.
France Roy, Global Head of Engineering, AB InBev
Today's Visionaries are Tomorrow's Leaders
The 2020 coronavirus pandemic has accelerated the online GMV (gross merchandise value) growth for our costumes, which include major brands such as Sony, Walmart, Whirlpool, Coca-Cola, Stanley Black & Decker, AB InBev and Nestlé, plus 3,000+ active customers in 42 countries.
Brands and businesses have accelerated their digital initiatives like never before in preparation for a contactless future. This immediacy has put heavy pressure on IT departments to implement and launch commerce solutions with OMS capabilities much faster than they would have done pre-pandemic. With the massive increase in online marketplace sales, our commerce platform's native marketplace capabilities are a key differentiator as more businesses look to launch their own online marketplace experiences.
The top online marketplaces in the world sold $2.03 trillion in 2019. Third party sellers accounted for 50% of Amazon's revenue for the same year. In addition, over 200,000 businesses are selling to over 2 million unique customers via Amazon Business. The growth of marketplace ecommerce has many businesses adopting a marketplace-first strategy to sustain market share and set them apart from the competition.
Written by VTEX
VTEX is a global, fully integrated, end-to-end commerce solution with native marketplace and OMS capabilities. Our modern microservices-based architecture and our powerful business and developer tools allow VTEX to future-proof our customers' businesses and free them from software updates.

WIRED Awake July 14: Uber and Yandex are forming a new taxi company
Uber and Yandex are merging their Russian businesses to form a new ride-hailing firm, the EU wants to ban devastating logging in Poland's ancient Białowieża forest
The Białowieża forest is home to the world's largest population of the vulnerable European bison

1. Uber merges Russian business with internet giant Yandex
Uber has merged its Russian business division with Yandex, which has its own sizeable ride-hailing business in the region (Ars Technica). The companies will merge their Russian assets into an as-yet-unnamed new firm, of which Yandex will own 59.3 per cent and Uber 36.6 per cent, with staff members getting a total 4.1 per cent stake. The new company will operate in 127 cities across Russia, Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Belarus and Georgia.
2. EU calls for an end to logging in Europe's last primaeval forest
The European Union has asked the European Court to ban logging in Poland's half of the Białowieża Forest, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that has seen a vast increase in deforestation spurred on by the Polish government (The Guardian). Karmenu Vella, the EU's environment commissioner, said: "We have asked that Polish authorities cease and desist operations immediately. These actions are clear, practical steps that the European Commission has taken to protect one of the last remaining primaeval forests in Europe". The forest is home to some of Europe's rarest wildlife and represents a unique ecosystem. Poland, which maintains that tree felling is needed to control a bark beetle outbreak – a claim questioned by environmental experts – has reportedly logged 30,000 cubic metres of woodland since the beginning of 2017.

3. Google reveals its new London datacentre
Google has revealed a massive cloud computing datacentre in London – its second in Europe (BBC News). Google product manager Dave Stiver said: "GCP (Google Cloud Platform) customers throughout the British Isles and Western Europe will see significant reductions in latency when they run their workloads in the London region. In cities like London, Dublin, Edinburgh and Amsterdam, our performance testing shows 40% to 82% reductions in round-trip latency when serving customers from London compared with the Belgium region." Google is currently the world's third most popular cloud computing provider, behind Amazon and Microsoft.
4. Samsung spent £167m on an Alexa rival - but didn't put any of its tech into Bixby
Samsung has revealed that there is nothing of Viv, the innovative AI assistant it bought outright last year which writes its own programs to answer queries, in its own new AI assistant, Bixby (WIRED). In an exclusive interview with WIRED, Injong Rhee, Samsung Mobile's chief technology officer, said: "The current version of Bixby is based on Samsung's own technology, which was in development for several years. Our proprietary software provides the foundation for Bixby. Viv Labs' technology will be used for the growth of the ecosystem". This statement contradicts what Samsung told WIRED back in April at the launch of the Galaxy S8, where a spokesperson said: "We've utilised some of Viv for building Bixby", although they were unable to confirm to what extent the technology was used.
5. Ravens can anticipate and prepare for the future
A new study has revealed that, like humans and great apes, ravens can plan and prepare for future events (Science). The birds were taught to use a stone tool to open a box containing food. They learned to pick up and use the correct tool when the box was there, but also selected and hung on to the tool when the box was missing, showing that they anticipated its return. They also learned to trade the tool for a token that would get them a better reward. One bird even had to be removed from the experiment because it hacked the test by devising a non-standard method of extracting food from the box, study co-author Can Kabadayi told Motherboard.

6. Oculus is reportly working on a $200 wireless VR headset
Bloomberg reports that Oculus is working on a new stand-alone VR headset that it intends to reveal at its Connect conference in October (Ars Technica). The new headset will reportedly be priced at $200 (£155), have a Qualcomm Snapdragon processor and be "more powerful" than the smartphone-dependent Samsung Gear VR. An Oculus representative told Ars Technica that "we don't have a product to unveil at this time; however, we can confirm that we're making several significant technology investments in the standalone VR category. This is in addition to our commitment to high-end VR products like Oculus Rift and mobile phone products like Gear VR".

7. Nintendo Japan has ceased production of the New 3DS
Nintendo has ceased production of its standard sized New 3DS handheld in Japan, although the 2DS and 3DS XL versions remain on the market (Polygon). A message on Nintendo's website confirms that the console, which superseded the original 3DS in 2014 and has a more powerful processor, is no longer being made for the Japanese market. However, the New 3DS will remain on sale in the USA, where a representative of Nintendo of America told Polygon: "This announcement does not affect Nintendo of America territories, as the model in question was only sold in limited quantities as special offerings. There are no changes to the sales status of New Nintendo 3DS XL, Nintendo 2DS or the upcoming New Nintendo 2DS XL, which launches on July 28". It's not immediately clear what the company's plans for Europe are.
8. Review: Netflix's Castlevania Is the Future of Videogame Adaptations
Netflix's animated Castlevania series tells a tale of vengeance in the Romanian region of Wallachia as Dracula seeks retribution for the murder of his human wife (WIRED). Like the Konami games it's based on, the real stars of the show are the Belmont clan, an ancient family of monster hunters locked in a blood-feud with Dracula and his supernatural ilk – a feud that has seen them excommunicated and shunned even as they've saved Wallachia countless times. Set in 1476, the series finds Trevor Belmont, the clan's last surviving son, drunk and despondent as Dracula's hordes bear down on the countryside. What follows in this first season's brief four episodes is stylish and stupid. That's not an insult – the show embraces the pulpiness of the game series' visuals, alongside some of the basic mechanical ideas that pull those games together: exploring of arcane spaces; challenging combat; a thin veneer of medieval aesthetic fascination. In doing so, showrunner Adi Shankar, writer Warren Ellis, and their collaborators have created something that is both entirely unlike a Castlevania game and completely true to the spirit of one. And it does so with the glee of smart people creating what might otherwise be thought of as lowbrow culture – simply because it's a blast to do so. It wouldn't be hyperbole to say that this is one of the best videogame adaptations of all time. That's because it's a very, very, very low bar. But Castlevania is in the process of raising it.
9. Wolfenstein 2's new trailer presents a game show set in its alternate-history America
Bethesda has released a new trailer for forthcoming FPS Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus that provides a glimpse into the world of its alternative timeline, which saw the Nazis conquer America in the Second World War (VG24/7). Titled German or Else, the trailer reveals a gameshow that shows the Nazi regime "imposing their will on pop culture, taking what would have been iconic American TV shows". Wolfenstein II is out on October 27 on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC.
10. Llamasoft's Polybius is at the heart of Nine Inch Nails' new music video
The newly-released video for Nine Inch Nails' Less Than centres around a customised build of Llamasoft's latest trance-fuelled action-arcade game Polybius (Ars Technica). Llamasoft's Jeff Minter told Ars Technica that NIN's Trent Reznor messaged him out of the blue on Twitter: "(Trent) mentioned that he'd enjoyed Llamasoft's stuff and he had an idea to discuss," Minter says. "Of course I was super chuffed to hear he'd liked our work, as I've enjoyed his a lot over the years too!" The video shows the hypnotic effect of the game and music on a player, which ties in neatly to the urban legend of a cursed arcade machine that inspired Polybius.

The hottest acting roles in New Orleans every January just might be at Tulane Law School.
During the first week of January for the past six years, a crash course called the Intersession Boot Camp is held the week before classes resume. The boot camp gives students the chance to learn from attorneys and judges who travel to Tulane Law from around the country to create an intensive simulation of law practice in one of three alternative tracks: civil litigation, criminal practice and business transactions.
Tulane law professor Tonya Rhodes Jupiter, assistant director of Tulane Law's Pro Bono Program, coordinates the scheduling and booking of many of the actors during boot camp. She said using real actors gives students a much more realistic experience.
Actors play a major part in the boot camp, taking on roles of witnesses, clients or other characters in the mock legal matters. Students learn how to ask questions in depositions, handle belligerent witnesses and protect their own clients under questioning. The actors make cases come alive.
Holly Rochelle, an actress from New Orleans, arrived on Monday to play the role of a pregnant inmate awaiting trial for a crime she did not commit and meeting her 'lawyer' for the first time. During her interview with students in the criminal law track, she cried and demanded to know how old the students were and whether they'd ever tried a case before.

The aged one participated in all periods of training of the life of a social organization, where the established rules had been daily pay aiming at a combined coercion and reciprocity in changeable degrees. The mature age, keeps out of society for imposing physical limitations and certain restrictions, the way that many friction the third age, also seem consolao, ' ' best idade' '. Of the one not to understand this expression, really the old one has that to be faced as a being that lived many experiences and expectations, owner of a valuable luggage, without however attributing certain adjectives, to express its accumulation of years. The valuation human being is necessary condition for its mental and consequentemente physical health and spiritual. The necessary society to receive the aged one as a being that is part of the context social economic-politician and, and not to see it as one empecilho, that it only serves to catch the best places in the lines and the banks of trlebus. While to establish rules that they aim at to eliminate the old one of the daily activities and of work that it can carry through, we will be living deeply a social stagnation, where less the most favored, called ' ' better idade' ' , they will be white of one ' ' death precoce' '. To live without being able to feel itself useful, is a form to die all for the world and the life, forgetting itself potential that loads.

Charlie Sheen has psychiatric tests after NY hotel incident
The actor has been released from hospital following an "episode" at the Plaza Hotel in New York.
Oct 27th 2010, 3:27 PM 194 0
ACTOR CHARLIE SHEEN has been released from hospital after undergoing a psychiatric evaluation following reports that he had been screaming and throwing furniture out of a hotel window in New York.
Sheen agreed to the evaluation shortly after police found his room at the famed Plaza Hotel trashed early Tuesday morning, according to ABC News.
Sheen's publicist has said that he actor was having "an adverse allergic reaction to some medication".
Police commissioner Raymond Kelly told reporters: "No arrests were made. It's not a complaint."
It has not yet been established whether the incident will have an affect on Sheen's probation, which was due to end next week.
Last August, the actor pleaded guilty to assault in connection with a Christmas 2009 domestic dispute involving wife Brooke Mueller Sheen. He was sentenced to 30 days of drug and alcohol rehabilitation and placed on probation for three months.
Sheen's ex-wife, actor Denise Richards, was staying at a different room in the hotel with their two children.

The study of social behaviour, often called sociobiology, is entering a new phase. A growing focus on mechanisms has enriched the older, evolutionary, perspective of sociobiology. The chapters in this book provide an overview of some of the most influential examples of research adopting the multifaceted approaches used to understand social evolution. There are top-down examinations of the way selection influences behaviour and, therefore, its neural and genetic structure, and bottom-up examinations of the genetic, hormonal or neurobiological substrates of behaviour. We therefore have a detailed understanding of the social, ecological, physiological, neurological, hormonal and genetic factors leading to complex social behaviour, but little integration. Picking apart the components and influences on behaviour is a reductionist approach, and although this has provided considerable insights we argue that it is now time for a synthetic perspective. We argue that a complementary perspective that unifies the particulate knowledge we have gained is now possible, and in keeping with current fashion we label this a systems biology approach to studying behavioural complexity. In reality, this is not new but a re-emphasis of the original synthetic view of sociobiology. Systems biology is simply a focus on interactions among components, and it works towards developing a predictive framework for resulting emergent properties of a system. Systems biology depends on a detailed understanding of the component parts to a system, and we believe this will be increasingly available for social behaviour, given the availability of new and less expensive approaches to gaining mechanistic information.

Sleeping in is not part of the program, so expect to rise early in the morning to enjoy a healthy breakfast. Some programs offer morning classes such as meditation or yoga to help you begin the day in a relaxed state of mind.
Part of the treatment and recovery process centers on developing new, healthy habits that are intended to become routine in post-discharge life.


Last week we were thrilled to accept the award for "designer of the year - Couture" at the Sunshine Coast fashion awards. This win was very unexpected! It was the first time Ivie White had been nominated for an award and as you can imagine the thought of actually attending the night meant leaving either as a winner or not (which was fine by me) but also as the person who's family insisted on attending with you just in case… I should add no other nominee brought their family. As a winner it was lovely to have family there to share in the experience.
I'm not a great believer in the awards concept but it is nice to recognised and applauded by peers of the fashion industry.

Which London club has the most to gain from the final day of the Premier League season?
The difference in money from finishing positions in the table is stark

Sign up to FREE email alerts from Football London - Arsenal
Only four positions in the Premier League table are nailed down as we head into the final weekend of the season.
That means 16 other clubs have money to play for going into the weekend.
Only Manchester City (1st), Manchester United (2nd), Arsenal (6th) and Burnley (7th) cannot change positions in the league table as we head into the final round of fixtures this weekend.
And with £2 million available for every place higher in the table that you finish, there is no such thing as a dead rubber - not where chairmen and owners are concerned anyway.
Emotion, sadness & photos - Behind the scenes at Arsene Wenger's final Arsenal press conference
That means that ahead of tonight's game between West Ham and Manchester United, the last fixture before the final weekend, there is a staggering £320 million still to be secured in the Premier League.
The Gunners have secured a £30 million windfall for finishing sixth - not exactly what they would have been hoping for at the start of the season - but how much is at stake for our other London clubs?

Mauricio Pochettino's men are third and can only finish there or fourth, meaning there is £2 million st stake for them going into the final weekend. They could earn £36 million for placing third, or £34 million for fourth.
How Chelsea can still qualify for the Champions League over Liverpool at Newcastle United
Look set to finish fifth but there's still an outside chance of grabbing fourth spot from Liverpool, so there's an extra £2 million at stake for the Blues this weekend.
The Eagles have enjoyed a renaissance under Roy Hodgson and the crowded nature of the bottom half of the table means they can finish anywhere between 10th and 15th. That's a massive £10 million difference in positions for Palace. Chairman Steve Parish will be hoping they go all out for the win against West Brom.

Much like Palace they can finish between 10th and 15th this weekend, so there is the potential of an extra £10 million for the Hornets.
The Hammers have the most to play for of any team in the Premier League. They can finish as low as 17th, but as high as 10th which means there is a whopping £14 million at stake for them. That could go towards David Moyes' war chest this summer.

Space surveillance technologies a top need for U.S. military
Gen. John Raymond said the Space Force wants to be able to collect more data but also analyze it quickly and share it with allies and civilian space organizations.
WASHINGTON — Space tracking sensors and artificial intelligence systems that analyze data are becoming high priorities for the U.S. Space Force and U.S. Space Command, officials said.
Chief of Space Operations Gen. John Raymond said technologies that contribute to space domain awareness are a pressing need for the U.S. Space Force.
"We need to understand what's going on," Raymond said Nov. 21 at the virtual Halifax International Security Forum in a joint appearance with Jim Chilton, senior vice president of Boeing's space business.
Space domain awareness is the military term used to describe the ability to monitor and identify natural objects and satellites in orbit around the Earth and also in the lunar sphere.
The military has a large network of sensors on the ground and in space that track objects orbiting the Earth. But the Space Force wants more sophisticated intelligence capabilities to identify potential threats such as orbital weapons disguised as civilian spacecraft. Raymond said the Space Force wants to be able to collect more data but also analyze it quickly and share it with allies and civilian space organizations.
Tracking space junk is one of the challenges in space domain awareness as debris is now considered the most immediate threat to satellites and to human presence in space.
The Space Force does not have a mandate to clean up debris but Raymond said everyone has to do their part to prevent more unwanted objects from being created. "One way to mitigate debris is to not create debris in the first place," he said. It's important to "act responsibly, not blowing up satellites, making sure satellites don't collide, and setting engineering standards so when you launch, pieces of debris don't come off the launch vehicles; and making sure that when satellites reach the end of their live that they don't break into pieces."
A 'big data' problem
Space domain awareness will be an area of increasing focus at U.S. Space Command, said Lt. Gen. John Shaw, the incoming deputy commander.
Shaw, who ran space operations at Vandenberg Air Force, California, on Monday takes over as the second highest ranking officer at U.S. Space Command in Colorado Springs, Colorado. Gen. James Dickinson in August became the commander of U.S. Space Command.
"Space domain awareness is probably going to be one of General Dickinson's highest priorities this coming year, maybe his highest priority," Shaw said Nov. 20 during an online event hosted by the Air Force Association's Schriever Chapter.
"We need to understand what's happening," said Shaw. "Space domain awareness supports everything else that we do."
He called space awareness a "big data problem" that can't just be fixed with more sensors but requires technologies to analyze and make sense of data.
U.S. Space Command currently is responsible for space traffic management which requires the military to alert satellite operators of potential collisions in space. Those duties will be transferred to the Commerce Department over the next few years. "We expect that in the next National Defense Authorization Act there will be language on how DoD with cooperate with the Department of Commerce on space traffic management and how we move that forward," said Shaw. "Working that transition will be a key piece in the next couple of years."

Don't burn Toronto's garbage in neighbouring communities - Letter to City Council
Posted by Jolene Cushman 601sc on May 05, 2021
Incineration, often called "energy-from-waste" or "thermal treatment", is a toxic and harmful way to deal with waste. A report in front of City Council could allow waste to be sent for incineration in neighbouring communities in Peel and Durham - but this is counter to Toronto's climate goals and further burdens communities facing multiple sources of pollution.
Our Waste Campaigner Emily Alfred spoke to the Infrastructure and Environment Committee last week to share five reasons why Toronto should reject incineration and focus on reducing and diverting waste. Next, City Council will vote on this report May 5th.
Read Emily's deputation below.
UPDATE (MAY 6th):
We won a motion at City Council that will require City Staff to report detailed information to Council (including naming the facility and providing detailed environmental and emissions data) before being able to send waste for incineration. While this is a win for transparency and ensuring Council hears about the climate and environmental impacts of incineration, ultimately, waste should not be incinerated under any circumstances. We'll continue to monitor and fight against incineration and for real zero waste solutions.
Dear Councillors,
On behalf of the Toronto Environmental Alliance (TEA) I am writing to you in response to item IE 21.5 Authority to Negotiate and Enter into Regional Waste Management Co-operation and Contingency Agreements to urge you to focus on waste diversion, and reject the option to send Toronto's waste for incineration or 'thermal treatment' in another community.
The "thermal treatment" of waste - including incineration with some energy recovery or creation of refuse-derived-fuel - is an expensive and toxic form of disposal that works directly against Toronto Council's environmental commitments. It is inconsistent with Toronto's zero waste commitments, a circular economy, and it seriously undermines Toronto's climate change goals. Further, sending Toronto's waste to incinerators in other municipalities directly contributes to the air pollution and toxic burden facing those communities.
1. Thermal treatment of waste is in direct opposition to a circular economy and a goal of zero waste.
Zero Waste is about working to eliminate waste entirely, and it requires shifting to a circular economy. A circular economy is one that ensures resources and materials are reduced, reused, repaired, recycled and recirculated, eliminating the need for raw-materials extraction, and eliminating the need for disposal in landfill or incinerator. Toronto has committed to be a leader in the Circular Economy. Toronto is a proud member of the international Circular Economy CE100 Network, and our city has signed onto the C40 Cities Zero Waste Declaration that commits to reducing waste and diverting 70% of waste from landfill and incineration by 2030.
2. Thermal treatment of waste contributes to climate change.
In 2019, Toronto Council declared a climate emergency and committed to net zero GHG emissions by 2050. Incineration is a very inefficient source of non-renewable energy: only a small amount of energy is collected by burning mixed garbage, and most of that energy comes from burning plastics, a fossil fuel product. From a climate perspective, it is undisputed that diverting waste by increasing efforts to reduce, recycle and compost as much as possible conserves more energy than any form of disposal.
3. Energy from waste and incineration creates extremely toxic air emissions and residual ash.
The combustion of mixed garbage creates a mix of toxic air pollutants. This includes pollutants such as particulate matter, sulphur dioxide and nitrogen oxides, and the burning of plastics and other combustible materials also creates very toxic dioxins and furans. These are extremely toxic substances that accumulate in the soil and in our bodies. Even the most sophisticated filtration systems cannot remove all of these substances.
Emissions levels are based on ideal computer modelling. Real world emissions testing is very limited and in many cases, happens at only a few points per year. This is concerning and shows that theoretical modelling may not be giving us the full picture of actual emissions.
For example, one of two incinerators near Toronto is the Durham York Energy Centre, which was built in the last decade. However, since the incinerator began operation, dioxins have been released by the facility and there have been a number of events when dioxin limits were exceeded, including one with dioxin levels at nearly 14 times the allowable limit.
After the incineration process, approximately one third of the waste remains as bottom ash and fly ash with toxic substances in it. From Durham in 2020 over 41,000 tonnes of this ash was trucked to a landfill in Niagara Falls, and some went across the border to New York. This effectively spreads the waste and the potential toxic ash to even more communities.
4. Energy from waste emissions and ash burdens other communities.
There are two operating energy from waste facilities near Toronto: one in Durham and one in Peel.
The Durham York Energy Centre was built in the last ten years. However, despite the pollution controls the community surrounding this facility is still subjected to a steady flow of nitrogen oxide, sulphur dioxide, particulate matter, dioxins and a host of other toxic substances that are all known to cause significant harm.
It's also worth noting that in addition to the Durham incinerator, the community faces emissions from one of the biggest polluters in Canada, the St. Mary's cement facility. Currently, the local council and community is appealing St. Mary's plans to burn 400 tonnes of garbage per day in that cement facility. This raises questions about the cumulative impact of incineration, and the communities that are bearing the brunt of industrial pollution for our lifestyle.
The second facility is the privately owned Emerald Energy From Waste incinerator in Brampton. This facility is more than 20 years old and it takes waste from anywhere in Ontario including commercial and industrial waste. Air monitoring at this site for the most toxic substances including dioxins and furans happens only once per year.
Considering the proximity to multiple highways and the airport, once again we're looking at sending Toronto's waste to a community that is already facing a number of industrial emission sources.
5. The majority of what is in Toronto's 'garbage' isn't garbage and could have been recycled or composted in existing City curbside programs, or should be eliminated.
City audits over many years and the recent Mixed Waste Processing Study results confirm that there is still a lot of room for improvement in recycling and organics diversion in Toronto.
On average, 25% of the garbage bag is recyclable materials, including single use packaging and plastics, that should be collected in the Blue Bin, and approximately 30% was food and organic waste that should be composted to recycle nutrients in the green bin.
Additional analysis of City audits shows another 10 to 15% of the rest is reusable materials like textiles and household goods, or hazardous and special waste like batteries and electronics.
The fact is that these materials are not garbage and they should not be burned. The combination of plastics, household goods and special and hazardous waste creates a complex and unpredictable combination of materials that can result in different levels of toxic emissions. This material has no place in an incinerator.
Toronto needs to focus its efforts into improving diversion and striving for a goal of zero waste.
We urge you to reject 'thermal treatment' disposal for Toronto's waste and follow through on Council's commitments to create a circular economy and to take action on the climate crisis. Toronto must invest in waste diversion programs and policies that create a circular economy, reduce waste, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Heavy security for Amitabh Bachchan!
Sanskriti Media
Published Tuesday, June 25, 2019
Amitabh Bachchan is shooting amidst very high security for his film Gulabo Sitabo helmed by Shoojit Sircar. The film is being shot in the Uttar Pradesh city of Lucknow and the people in the nawabon ka shaher are more than excited to get their UP boy back in their state shooting.
Bachchan has not shot in Uttar Pradesh for a while now and the actor's presence in the state shooting for a Bollywood flick is reason enough for not just the public but the media as well to throng there to catch a glimpse of the megastar.
"It has been sheer madness for the security personnel. They have been on their guard not just during the shoot but in and around the hotel where Bachchan Sr has been put up. The shooting began on Wednesday at a mansion in Qaiserbagh and when one picture got out, the second day shoot was delayed because the world turned up. But now it has gotten tougher and a huge security has been put up. Bachchan and Shoojit have collaborated earlier in Piku and the unreleased Johnny Mastana. Ayushmann Khurrana is also shooting with Bachchan and Bachchan's unique get up in the film about an old landlord and a tenant is already exciting the film industry," says a trade source.

Subject: Was Mtv popular right away?

Hey 80s people, I always wanted to know, did Mtv become popular fast or did it take about 2 or 3 years for it to break through to the culture? Please reply. And about what year did Mtv stop playing music videos? (Not literally, they still do, but it's so short).

Maybe a related question is if cable television was wildly popular and available in 1981 when MTV debuted. Availability of cable television may have helped or hindered MTV's early success (if it was successful from its debut).
Here's some trivia about MTV:
The music video for 'Just Between You and Me' by April Wine was the fourteenth video played on MTV's first day of broadcast making it the first video by a Canadian recording artist ever played on MTV. Played again at number fifty-seven, it's also the first video the station ever repeated

The first music video on Much Music, was Rush's "The Enemy Within".
Some MuchMusic Trivia:
The first two VJs to appear on MuchMusic were Christopher Ward and J.D. Roberts, who helped launch the channel in 1984
- Christopher Ward, a singer who had previously charted a few hits in Canada during the 70s went on to fame as producer and songwriter for Alannah Myles
- J.D. Roberts, is none other than CNN news anchor John Roberts, co-host of 'American Morning'

Yes. I would go so far as to say it helped popularize cable. The "I want my MTV" ad campaign was relentless. These ads were on broadcast TV ad nauseam in July, 1981. I remember them. Granted the cable market was tiny compared to broadcast in those days, everybody knew about MTV. A lot of rural places had no cable access and even in the cities and suburbs, I'd say 2/3 had yet to subscribe in the summer of '81. That would all change in the next few years.

My grandparents subscribed to cable long before we did and when we went over to their house, my sister and I kept our eyes glued to MTV as much as possible. In between the VJ banter and the videos for Duran Duran Culture Club, the Fixx, A Flock of Seagulls, Michael Jackson, Prince, Bonnie Tyler, Motley Crue, and so on, there were mind-numbing strings of ads for designer jeans, class rings, bubble gum, soft drinks, and Swatches. MTV was the best commercial vector for the 12--25 demographic since...since anything! It was unprecedented! Ad men are not stupid. Mom watched soaps, Dad watched the news, but Bud and Sis wanted MTV! 1982 was a terrible year of recession. It took a lot nagging to get the folks to shell out the extra dough for cable, so they hired the kids to do it! Cable companies? Happy. Corporations? Happy. Kids? Happpy. Viacom execs? LOADED!

I have this documentary that VH1 aired in 1999 or 2000, it was a five part series all about how different types of '80s music had an impact on the decade - not just with music, but politics, daily life and overall culture.
Anyway part 1 talks about MTV and pop music, and according to them, it started taking off with new wave bands c. 1982, but really became a phenomenon when Thriller came out. And when Madonna became huge in '84 it was completely established. That's pretty much along the lines of how I've always thought it went too.

Thanks everyone, for posting, but thank you, Marty McFly, for answering my question. So I guess the answer is it took about a year for Mtv to take off and another 2 years for it to become its own.
^ No problem. :)
I actually have wondered if music videos being popular made the '80s sound really take off (i.e. synthpop) which seemed to really happen in 1982 from looking at compilations or what was on the charts. Even before Thriller, bands like Hall & Oates and the Cars seemed pretty popular on MTV from what I've seen.


After saving the life of Draco's daughter, Teresa Di Vicenzo, Bond is 'escorted' to meet Draco. After informing Bond about his daughter's suicidal tendencies, he offers Bond a one million pounds dowry on the day that he marries her. Bond declines the offer telling Draco he has a bachelors taste for freedom. Later Draco tells Bond about a possible connection with Ernst Stavro Blofeld and a lawyer in Switzerland that Bond decides to check out later in the film.
Draco talents come into play much later when Tracy is held hostage at Blofeld's headquarters. Draco leads a small strike force of three helicopters armed with men under the guise of an emergency Red Cross mission allowing them to get close. While Draco and his men lay explosives to seal the place off forever, Bond chases Blofeld escaping the building seconds before it explodes.
In the final scenes of On Her Majesty's Secret Service, Draco remains true to his word and gives Bond the million pound dowry when Bond marries Tracy. Bond however returns the money telling Draco that he loves her anyway and her price is invaluable.


The idea of spring and summer is right around the corner, which means it's time to break out the vests. It is going to be vest weather, which is the best weather! Ok, well maybe it isn't the best weather, but I couldn't resist the rhyme. Anyways, we love vests, and this style of faux fur is super popular, looks great, and helps keep your core warm. This is perfect for wearing out and about, or inside if its a little chilly. Either way, you will look great! Be bold, be yourself, and have fun!
