"For Purpose" companies – Inbound's evolution?
"For Purpose" companies – Inbound's evolution?
I just listened to a really interesting podcast today: June 12, 2017's Click Funnels #FunnelHacker Radio.
Each week, host Dave Woodward interviews a new guest that's out there setting the online marketing world on fire through their unique methods and processes.
Yesterday's episode was an interview with Cole Hatter, who is a "serial entrepreneur" and discussed his career of passion, "Thrive".
"Thrive", much like "Over 50 Starting Over", centers on helping people find their careers of passion. "Thrive" is utilizing a "For Purpose" slant which means a small percentage of each sale goes to a specific social issue. This method of marketing supplies a built in marketing component for your business while it creates real difference-making funding to areas of need.
I'm quite sure Blake feels pretty good about going to work in the morning. It's worth noting that he's also worth over $300 million bucks.
Cole also mentions Lstn Sound Company that makes premier headphones. For every headphone purchase, they donate a hearing aid to a child that can't hear through the Starkey Hearing Foundation.
Beer maker, Stella Artois donates a percentage of their proceeds to Water.org's "Buy a Lady a Drink" initiative that provides clean water to men and women around the world who have no access to clean water.
In the same way that inbound marketing has been slow to be adopted by traditional marketers due to its generous, selfless approach, philanthropic consumerism seems to be riding a wave of success that is seen with equal skepticism.
However, 84% of millennials surveyed said that they would leave their brands to go to a competitor's brand if that company was offering assistance to a social cause.
Being a successful entrepreneur is more about motivation than it is business savvy or funding. Piggy backing a social cause onto your business simply can't be a bad idea.
Cole addressed the popular pushbacks against "For Purpose" business. The first, of course, is parting with some of your profits.
Isn't this kind of a gimmicky way to generate buzz?
No. It's simply a business model. And think of how much better off that this world could be if more of us voluntarily backed businesses that support important social causes. Even at the local level (ESPECIALLY at the local level), publicly supporting an important social cause could generate more buzz in a week than a month worth of Facebook ads.
Imagine if your local food shelter or Animal Protective League received 20% more in donations for the year as a result. That'll keep you motivated and feeling purposeful!
I'd love to hear your thoughts on this. Comment on our blog.

Q: How to remove letters with preceding full stop using php regex? One of my script has the following function to return a float value from a text value consist with currency code.
function preformatFloat($value, $decimal_point = '.')
{
    if ($decimal_point != '.' && strpos($value, $decimal_point)) {
        $value = str_replace('.', '~', $value);
        $value = str_replace($decimal_point, '.', $value);
    }
    return (float)preg_replace('/[^0-9\-\.]/', '', $value);
}

And if I run this function
echo preformatFloat("Rs.990.00",".");

I got the answer as 0.99 but I wanted to get the value as 990.00
I tried lot by modifying regex value but no luck.
Can you please help with this. Thank you

A: try this
function preformatFloat($string)
{
    $precedingFullStop = strpos($string, ".");
    $newString = substr($string, $precedingFullStop + 1);

    return (float)preg_replace('/[^0-9\-\.]/', '', $newString);
}
echo preformatFloat("PKR.200.09");

A: Here is a different approach using a RegExp match. It tries to find the first valid (float) number and ignores anything else.
function parseFloatInput(
    $value,
    $decimal_separator = '.',
    $thousand_separator = ','
) {
    $pattern = '(
       # define named templates for the separators,
       # escape variable values for pattern
       (?(DEFINE)(?<dp>'.preg_quote($decimal_separator).'))
       (?(DEFINE)(?<tp>'.preg_quote($thousand_separator).'))
       (
         # at least one digit
         (?:\d+)
         # any repeat: a thousand separator followed by 3 digits
         (?:(?&tp)?\d{3})*
         # one or no:  decimal separator followed by at least one digit
         (?:(?&dp)?\d+)?
       )
    )x';
    if (preg_match($pattern, $value, $match)) {
        return (float)str_replace(
            [$thousand_separator, $decimal_separator],
            ['', '.'],
            $match[0]
        );
    }
    return NAN;
}

var_dump(parseFloatInput("Rs.990.99","."));
var_dump(parseFloatInput("Rs.1,990.99","."));
var_dump(parseFloatInput("Rs.990.99",","));
var_dump(parseFloatInput("Rs.",","));

Output:
float(990.99)
float(1990.99)
float(990)
float(NAN)

Notes

*

*/ is not the only possible delimiter. Any non alpha numeric character works. But only parentheses/brackets do not conflict with usage inside the pattern. So I prefer using () - reading it as group 0.

*Modifier x for extended syntax. It allows to format and comment the pattern.

*The separators are defined as templates, to improve the readability of the actual matching part.

Vancouver mobile game developer, Kabam, has signed a 105,000 sq ft lease in cutting-edge Vancouver office tower at Vancouver Centre II (VCII), an office tower being developed by GWL Realty Advisors.
Vancouver, BC, January 10, 2019--(T-Net)--Vancouver-based mobile game developer, Kabam, has announced the next phase of its growth with the long-term lease of 105,000 square feet across seven floors at the new cutting edge Vancouver office tower at Vancouver Centre II (VCII).
The project, which is being developed by GWL Realty Advisors, has a targeted completion date of 2021. VCII will be the first office tower completed in the current cycle of downtown office development.
Kabam said in a release that it is "excited to collocate into one unified, agile work environment. The company thinks the amenities are fantastic, and they know their four-legged team members will be excited to have a special place to enjoy as well".
"Kabam is exactly the kind of forward-thinking, industry-leading firm we had in mind when we designed VCII," says Geoff Heu, Vice President, Development - Western Canada, GWL Realty Advisors. "With VCII's premier location in the downtown tech hub and its direct connection to two transit lines, it's not surprising the building is already one-third leased before excavation is even complete. With the current exceptionally low office vacancy rate of 3.9 per cent, we are confident that VCII will be fully leased prior to completion."
Kabam Games Inc. is hiring.
Kabam's quest for a new location was driven by its long-term growth plans.
Founded in 2006, Kabam has become a global leader in multi-player mobile games with blockbuster releases such as Marvel Contest of Champions, which has had more than 168 million downloads worldwide since 2014.
With over 400 employees across its Vancouver, San Francisco and Austin offices (and over 200 in Vancouver), Kabam sees Vancouver as a key part of its long-term expansion plans.
As VCII's lead tenant, Kabam will have access to first-class amenities, including the 29th Floor Skyline Rooftop Deck; a state-of-the-art fitness facility and yoga studio; end-of-trip cycling facilities; and dog-friendly facilities.
The project is targeting LEED Platinum certification and is registered with the International WELL Building Institute ™. VCII's Wired Certification will ensure it has the digital infrastructure to addresses the advanced technology needs of today and the capacity to upgrade to meet future needs.
When complete, VCII will sit squarely in the middle of Vancouver's new commercial office district, which has shifted east in recent years.

Where to Celebrate Bastille Day 2019 in Miami
Caffe Abbracci Owner Nino Pernetti Has Been Its Driving Force for 30 Years
Swizzle Bar Will Reopen With Former Employees Only Miami Staff at the Helm

The Madame Hong, featuring Campari, will be one of many libations on the Swizzle menu.
Swizzle Rum Bar & Drinkery
Chelsea Olson | July 5, 2019 | 9:00am
Swizzle Rum Bar & Drinkery is slated to open in late July at the Stiles Hotel on Collins Avenue in Miami Beach, barely two blocks from the original location that debuted in November 2016.
Swizzle was started as a lobby bar at the Washington Park Hotel by the management team behind Employees Only Miami (EO), which was located on the side of the property. A landlord dispute in 2018 led to both establishments shuttering abruptly, dismaying locals and visitors alike.
Danilo Dacha Božovic, recently named one of the ten best bartenders in Miami by the Miami Times and the principal bartender to open Employees Only Miami, is the driving force behind the new endeavor. He's brought five members of the EO Miami team onboard for Swizzle, following a similar ideology in making them partners with an ownership stake in the bar's success.

Bar Lab's Downtown Wine Bar Margot Will Feature Natty Wines
Patrons can expect an elegant atmosphere with a cocktail-driven menu and a strong emphasis on attentive service. "It's very important," Božovic says. "Service, technique, with the same warm hospitality we provided at EO Miami are number one for us." One way that will be evidenced is with a complimentary sample of the bar's signature drink upon arrival: a rum Manhattan.
As the name suggests, Swizzle's inspiration and much of its story center on the beloved Caribbean spirit. A custom mural at the bar will tell the story of rum's origins, as will the framed pictures that walk guests through the production process from sugarcane to bottle. This is also a kind of historical tour that bartenders can share with guests.
Swizzle will offer 150 varieties of rum. It will seat about 25 to 30 guests around the bar in a more intimate setting, and a small secluded patio area will be open until midnight. Music will be played through a vintage gramophone, evoking a speakeasy ambiance and the days of ritzy glamour. The menu will pay homage to the fundamentals of making great craft cocktails, but with a contemporary emphasis.
Bozovic's award-winning Remy Martin cocktail, Gold for USA.
And rum won't be the only standout spirit here. Božovic says to expect everything from Scotch and vodka to pisco and cachaça, most of which will be stirred, not shaken.
Cocktails include the rum-based El Presidente, containing pomegranate, molasses, and Angostura bitters; and the Pisco Smuggler, made with pisco, young coconut pureé, and white cacao.
Božovic is concocting a twist on an El Diablo with fresh ginger. Several fan favorites from EO Miami will also make an appearance, including "the best Hurricane you may ever have," according to Liquor.com. Expect South Beach prices but world-class product quality.
A small kitchen will serve "easygoing food with rich taste profiles" to complement the drinks. Classic bar fare includes chicken wings and a Cuban sandwich, but for more adventuresome eaters, there will also be some flavors inspired by Serbia, Božovic's homeland. The Serbian steak croquetas are served with a side of ajvar, a traditional vegetable spread that can be made spicy.
"This is something I've always wanted to do," Božovic says. "I love this kind of bar. It's everything I've ever dreamed of as a bartender, all in one place. The cocktail is the Holy Grail, but so is the fun."
Swizzle Rum Bar & Drinkery. 1120 Collins Ave., Miami Beach; 305-674-7800; swizzlerumbardrinkery.com. Opening late July 2019. Sunday through Thursday 5 p.m. to 2 a.m., Friday and Saturday 5 p.m. to 5 a.m.

Norway Rats are long, heavily bodied with a blunt muzzle. Brown with scattered black hairs; gray to white underside, Norway Rats grow to 7-9 ½ inches long.
Norway rats are often drawn to piles of wood, so homeowners should keep firewood stored well away from the structure and remove debris piles to reduce nesting spots. For proper Norway rat control, seal any holes on the outside of the home with silicone caulk. Eliminate sources of moisture, especially in crawl spaces and basements, to get rid of Norway rats. It's also important to occasionally inspect the home for signs of a Norway rat infestation, including rodent droppings, gnaw marks, damaged goods and greasy rub marks caused by their oily fur. If you suspect a roof rat infestation in your home, contact us to conduct a free inspection and work with you to develop a Norway rat treatment plan.

Son of murdered nanny claims to have found Lord Lucan alive
It's claimed that he's living in a shared Buddhist house in Australia
plymouthherald

Rom Preston-EllisNetwork Newsroom Editor
Lord Lucan went missing in 1974 (Image: PA)
Claims have emerged that Lord Lucan has been found living in Australia almost 50 years after he went missing.
The son of Lucan's missing nanny has told police that he "know he's still alive."
Neil Berriman says Lucan, who vanished after the murder of Sandra Rivett in 1974, lives as a Buddhist in a shared house.
The man he believes to be Lucan is in his mid-80s and seriously ill, awaiting major surgery and virtually housebound in a large shared detached house in the suburbs, reports the Mirror.
Mr Berriman, 52, has been to Scotland Yard's Cold Case Unit with his findings, telling them: "I believe I have tracked down the man, Lord Lucan, who murdered my mother."
He said the officer he spoke to agreed that police must look into his claims. He added: "They will now have to investigate this properly."
The building contractor and father-of-two claims Lucan based himself in Perth on arrival in Australia, but moved to another part of the country after a series of disagreements with pals.
He now has a new group of friends. Two are young Englishmen, and another is an Australian he first met on a Buddhist retreat 11 years ago. They all take part in daily meditation sessions.

The mystery man needs a part-time carer, and often sits on the verandah listening to trains in the distance. The friends confirmed to the Daily Mirror that an elderly Englishman who looks like Lucan lives at the house.
Lord "Lucky" Lucan, who would have turned 85 last month, disappeared after the murder of Miss Rivett at the family's exclusive mews home in Belgravia, Central London, on November 7, 1974.
He had run up huge gambling debts, his volatile marriage to Lady Veronica Lucan had collapsed and the couple were going through a bitter custody battle over their three children.
Police believe he attacked Miss Rivett with a taped-up piece of lead piping after mistaking her for his wife.
After the attack he fled and was last spotted at the manor house home of Peter and Susan Maxwell-Scott in East Sussex.
At the time there were rumours he had committed suicide by throwing himself off a cross-Channel ferry from Newhaven days after the murder. But no body was ever washed up, and the mystery of his disappearance has endured for 46 years. It has always been thought possible that powerful friends may have helped him escape to avoid a lengthy prison sentence.

Lord Lucan was a member of the Clermont Set, a group of powerful, wealthy people including millionaire businessmen Sir James Goldsmith and John Aspinall. There have been sightings in South Africa, the Maldives, India and even India. But, despite extensive police inquiries, he has never been found.
Mr Berriman's quest began when he discovered 12 years ago that he was Sandra Rivett's secret son, who had been adopted shortly after birth.
When Lucan was formally declared dead by the High Court on February 3, 2016, he received a detailed tip by letter that Lucan was in fact alive.
He then decided to spend £30,000 of his own cash on a private investigation. As he dug deeper, he claimed evidence showed that Lucan had indeed escaped British justice.
Mr Berriman, who lives with partner Kim in Milland, West Sussex, said: "He has been alive all this time. Lying about who he is. Lying about it to his new friends.

"They are fully aware he is a mystery elderly Englishman and not who he is claiming to be.
"The people he lives with know he has a mystery past and what he tells them does not add up. They have had their suspicions for many years.
"Lucan is a deceitful conman and he is the man who murdered my mother.
"There is absolutely no doubt in my mind he escaped that night, with the help of friends who helped him get across the Channel and get a new passport, and incredibly he is still alive.
"From my own inquiries he's had at least six different identities."
The police have asked Mr Berriman to return to them to fully present the evidence painstakingly collected from his personal four-year investigation. Now he is demanding they put a team of detectives together to look into his fresh information fully. Attempts are still being made to try to confirm independently if his claims are true.
Scotland Yard said it would not comment on the case, adding: "Generally however we don't comment on who we may or may not speak to when/if a case is reviewed." The mystery man is aware of the claims, but the Mirror has chosen not to reveal his identity.
Mr Berriman admitted the search has taken over his life. He said: "I've spent around £30,000 of my own money in this search for the truth.
"I've paid for flights, hotels and even expert facial recognition technology for analysis. That showed a similarity of over 85% – and that is taking into account all the plastic surgery he has clearly had. It certainly has all added up.

"It's taken me all over Australia and it's taken me to meet all sorts of people who have helped me along the way – my journey to discover the truth.
"But I consider every penny was well spent – it has enabled me to get where we are today. It took over my life but it had to be done. I know some people would say that it's become an obsession.
"That may be so. But I would simply say to them: put yourself in my shoes.
"What would you do if your mum had been killed, and no one had been brought to justice and the man who killed her was never found? You'd do exactly what I've done to discover the truth, I think. This has brought me and my family so much stress and heartache."
But Mr Berriman added, with a tear in his eye: "There is absolutely no doubt in my mind it was the right thing to do."
If Lord Lucan is still alive it would have serious repercussions for the current Lord Lucan, George Bingham, who is the son of the fugitive.
George Charles Bingham, the 8th Earl of Lucan, would lose his title and inheritance if his father is still alive.
The earldom of Lucan was created back in 1795 during the reign of King George III.
The Binghams are an Anglo-Irish aristocratic family. Among them were George Bingham, the 3rd Earl of Lucan, who is best remembered for his controversial role in the Crimean War, when he lead the cavalry division involved in the infamous Charge of the Light Brigade.

You will be inspired by the helpfulness of this book in which Jesus answers people's questions about their lives and what would help them move past their troubling experiences. It is clear that the scribe is able to get out of the way to let Jesus' responses come through.
We found that as we read Jesus' answers to others, they also applied to us and our perceived problems. We felt Jesus to be a very strong presence as we read this material. This book is so helpful that, out of all the scribed books we have ever read, after A Course in Miracles, we would put this at the top of the 'must read' list. — Robert and Mary Stoelting, co-founders of Pathways of Light.
I am reading the book, "The Mirror on Still Water" and it is so wonderfully helpful I can't begin to describe. I am also reading ACIM and I feel it is absolute truth. From the book, "Mirror" I get the feeling that there has to be a higher power directing Joel in his writings. There is no ego in the words, just clear, beautiful truth.
I am beginning to feel the glimmerings of true peace of mind, peace of God. I am making fewer decisions on my own and I can tell the difference. When I make a decision from ego, it turns out painful, but when I step back and let the spirit direct me, I feel happier and more at peace. Thanks for recommending the book. — T.C.
If you enjoyed The Book ON… and Jesus Answers, you'll be inspired by this book.

Still/Born (2018)
Mary, a new mother, gives birth to twins, but only one of them is alive. While taking care of her living child, Adam, she suspects that something, a supernatural entity, has chosen him and will stop at nothing to take him from her.
Matchbox Films have a good track record of films wherein the lead may or may not be losing it. With strong vibes of Homesick, Still/Born sees a mother lose one of two twins during child birth, and her possible breakdown afterwards... or, it could be an evil entity. There's only one way to find out.
You could easily liken the premise of this one to something like Insideous. It's genuinely intriguing, and pretty fresh. It certainly will have you questioning whether there is a monster in the dark or not. As the film progresses forward, Mary becomes more and more unstable, her long suffering husband is doing his best while also trying to support them. He's just hit big business, and they have a new born and new house. He has to leave for work. None of this helps Mary, as she falls further and further from her sanity.
Christie Burke (Love Everlasting) as Mary has a lot to do in this. She carries the film from encounter to encounter, shouldering the bulk of the acting - and what a job she is given. From the opening 'happy new parent' to the unhinged 'do anything to save their child', Burke runs a gauntlet of emotions throughout the film. As a viewer, at times you end up screaming at the screen - she's being so unreasonable towards everyone around her - but at the same time it's all too relate-able. She does a great job too. Her husband, Jack, played by Jesse Moss (Tucker and Dale vs Evil), also holds up his end of the acting chops going from caring husband to insecure, overbearing husband. But again all too believably.
There's also room for a turn by veteran character actor Michael Ironside (Scanners) - in a small but pivotal role.
As the film goes from act to act the tension mounts until it's unbearable - by the end you'll know if it was an evil, or psychosis - but no spoilers here. The ending is fantastic, and truly terrifying.
Written by Brandon Christensen (Black Ice) and Colin Minihan (It Stains the Sands Red), shout out goes to the excellent dialogue - something that has a tendency to be boring and trite in character driven horror, and Christensen sitting in the director's chair also does a good job.
Slow burn, sure, but Still/Born pushes all the right buttons to give the viewer an hour and a half of creeping dread.
(Extra points for not having a slew of jump scares)

Q: Wordpress backend too slow, even after wiping out all expired transient and sessions in database It seems like my issue has not been here before, so I have created a new thread.
We have an e-commerce website and currently the back end is pretty slow. I did delete all the expired transient and session in database (before it was 1.2 GB but now is 200 MB). But the issue is that the admin site still slow and data is growing fast.
We have a lot of plugins and I am not sure if they are involved in this problem. We are using Wordpress version 4.2.2 and WooCommerce version 2.3.8, so I am thinking about upgrading them to latest versions, to make the admin site working faster as possible.
I hope that someone can tell me how to fix this issue. We struggle with this issue for a while.

Thank you in advance.

A: Please check by upgrading WordPress, Plugin and themes to the latest    version.  Remove all unwanted plugins and themes
Optimize your images    ,database, css and js by using htaccess

A: The versions of the plugins are not the reason the admin runs slowly, in my opinion. If your WordPress is 4.2.2, I'm guessing the plugins are compatible with the platform.
Did you test the speed, when all the plugins are deactivated? You can do that and then activate the plugins one by one to see which one is slowing the admin down.

A: just want to have an update for this issue. Our website got faster after I upgraded woocommerce and wordpress to the latest version. I think my problem is the combination of version of wordpress/woocommerce and the database in term of transient and session expiration. So finally the speed gets back to normal. I hope some one else got this issue can reference my case and speed up their website both fron end and back end.

A: Take a look at how many render-blocking requests your website has. Plugins can add a lot of scripts to your website.
I'd suggest using some form of cacheing and also enable Gzipping too.

A NEW REEL SERIES FOR SAGE MANUFACTURING SHOWS GREAT ADVANCES IN DRAG TECHNOLOGY
September 14, 2010 (Bainbridge Island, WA) – Sage Manufacturing, fly fishing industry leader, is pleased to introduce the 4200 series reel family for 2011. Technically advanced features and a reliable, lightweight carbon drag system are at the heart of the 4200 series design.
The 4200 series is the greatest value in the high-end reel market thanks to an abundance of features for worry-free performance. These reels are made from fully machined anodized 6061 T6 aluminium, tumble polished and inspected by hand to ensure incredible durability and strength but also corrosion resistance. To reduce casting fatigue, a new lightweight design was engineered but not at the expense of strength and durability. The 4200 series range from a 3/4 weight to a 9/10 weight with appropriately sized ergonomic handles and drag range specific to each reel size. Prices range from $289 for the 4230, $299 for the 4250, $309 for the 4280, and $319 for the 4210. Extra spools are available for each reel size.
"This series of reels took a great deal of advanced engineering in order to include every detail yet still be priced reasonably for our consumer," says Kurt Van Wyck, Director of R&D. "The real value and technology story here is based around the unique Floating Tripod Drag system."
The Floating Tripod Drag is one of the more unique configurations of Sage's Sealed Carbon System drag technologies, and stands by itself in the field. The Floating Tripod consists of a carbon disk riding on a stainless steel rotor supported by a triangle of three smaller carbon disks. Like the three legs of a stool, the system is perfectly balanced and incredibly low weight, providing smooth resistance through its full range of settings. A numbered one-revolution drag knob offers the benefit of quick and precise drag adjustments. As with every reel from Sage, the Floating Tripod is sealed and impervious to outside elements such as sand, grit and salt, requiring no maintenance beyond simple rinsing


This recipe is very easy to follow and the only difficult task is shredding those 500 g of carrots. I decided to coat the cake with cream cheese frosting but it is equally delicious without (and you still get to decorate it with marzipan carrots!).
This cake was also an occasion to celebrate my first 1st-author publication in a peer-reviewed scientific journal! And last but equally important, today is the 1st-year anniversary of Laura's Gourmandises!!! So many things to celebrate clearly called for a cake and this carrot cake made for a great Gourmandise on this 14th of February 2014.
Beat up eggs + sugar until white. Add fat (I do 1/2 butter 1/2 oil) and mix. Mix flour, baking powder and spices, add to batter and mix. Add carrots, almonds, and lemon and mix. Transfer to a buttered and floured cake pan, bake in the oven 60 min at 180C. Unmold and let the cake cool.


I received your letter the other day and was sure glad to get it. We just got back yesterday from a four days' hike, the second day was the hardest, we only went 18 miles, we were going through the mountains and most of the time we were climbing up; if the turns in the trail had been counted we would have gone twice as far. We camped at old Fort Cummings 4,000 feet above sea level in a little valley. We passed a place where there had been a bunch of soldiers camped. (Once upon a time) the Indians killed the whole bunch, they stormed the fort and lost nearly half their tribe in the operation, it was reported it has been an awful strong fort when it was in use; it has a rock wall about four feet high clear around it, one line of breast works running across the valley about a quarter of a mile east of it, on top of the ridge is another stone fence enclosing about an acre. The next day we had a sham battle and fought our way clear to Florida and camped (a pretty good days' march I say). The next day we got in about 1 p.m. This is the only company in the regiment that did not lose men. We had all of ours when we got in but some of them were dragging out their tracks out behind them.
We go out to the trenches Wednesday. After we come back from there we get a week's drilling and then go on a 15 days' hike. We expect it to be our last, but of course don't know.
Gov. Neville was here and made a speech. He sure bragged on our regiment and then began on the ones at home and they were just a little better than the soldiers. One Missourian was going to whip the whole company because the governor said that Nebraska has done more than any other state in the Union (of course we all agreed with the governor).
I have to go on division guard tonight.


Kandahar Province is among Afghanistan's most conservative and most dangerous – but that has not stopped Maryam Durani from speaking out for the rights of Afghan women and girls. As a member of Kandahar's Provincial Council, director of the non-profit Khadija Kubra Women's Association for Culture, and owner and manager of the only local, female-focused radio station, she is both a leader and a role model for women throughout Afghanistan. A true woman of courage, Ms. Durani has survived multiple attacks on her life, including a suicide attack in 2009 that resulted in serious injury. Although she continues to face regular threats, she is undeterred in her mission to promote basic civil rights for all Afghans.
Major Azevedo joined the Rio de Janeiro Military police in 1998 and, following her graduation in 2000, started working in police battalions and street repression operations. In 2007, Major Azevedo demonstrated extreme courage and commitment to her duties by successfully arresting a gang of criminals who had kidnapped and tortured her. As a result of her courage and success, she was invited to head the first "Police Pacification Unit" (UPP) in Rio de Janeiro, in the "favela" (slum) of Santa Marta. During her two years there, she has shut down drug dealing operations in the favela, established conflict mediation models, worked with state and local government institutions to improve garbage collection and health care, broadened education and technical training opportunities, and developed a successful community arts and crafts fair.
Zin Mar Aung is a former political prisoner, imprisoned for eleven years because of her political activism and has dedicated her life to promoting democracy, women's empowerment, and conflict resolution in Burma. Following her involvement in the 1996 and 1998 pro-democracy student uprisings and subsequent imprisonment, she established a cultural impact studies group to promote the idea that democracy is compatible with Asian culture. She also created and leads a self-help association for female ex-political prisoners and a political science school in Rangoon, which teaches and empowers civil society activists in Burma's changing but still challenging environment. She is also the co-founder of a women's empowerment group, and is currently spearheading an organization to raise awareness of issues affecting ethnic minorities in conflict areas.
Ms. Hana El Hebshi is a 26-year old Libyan architect who, during the long months of the Libyan revolution, became a symbol of solidarity and a model of courage to many across the country. Working under the pseudonym "Numidia," a reference to the ancient Berber kingdom and to her own Berber heritage, Hana contributed greatly to proper documentation of the violence and tumult of the revolution and reached out to international media to share the realities of living under the previous regime, despite grave risk. She also became a symbol of hope to the Libyan people that the world was aware of the suffering they were enduring and that hope was on the way.
Aneesa Ahmed stands out as a staunch advocate for ending gender-based violence (GBV) in the Maldives. While serving as Deputy Minister of Women's Affairs, she raised the issue of domestic violence at a time when the subject was taboo. After leaving the government, she founded the NGO "Hope for Women" and began conducting sessions on GBV with students, Maldives Police Services, and other frontline workers. When religious scholars began identifying female genital mutilation/cutting (FGM/C) as a practice supported by Islam on national radio, Ms. Ahmed asked the government to intervene, and spoke out publicly about the harmful effects of FGM/C. By openly discussing issues like these and promoting awareness through her NGO, Ms. Ahmed plays a key role in bringing these issues into public discourse and pressing the government to take action.
In one of the world's most restrictive environments for women, Samar Badawi is a powerful voice for two of the most significant issues facing Saudi women: women's suffrage and the guardianship system, under which women cannot marry, work, or travel without a guardian's (male relative) permission. In a landmark case, Badawi was the first woman to sue her father for abusing the guardian system and preventing her from marrying the suitor of her choice. She is also the first woman to file a lawsuit against the government demanding the right for women to vote, and launched an online campaign to encourage other women to file similar suits. The efforts of activists like Badawi helped encourage a royal decree allowing women to vote and run for office in future municipal elections.
Hailing from North Darfur, Hawa and her family were forced to flee their home village in 2003 due to fighting between Darfuri rebels and government forces. As a result, she spent much of her young adult life in Abu Shouk internally displaced persons (IDP) camp in El Fasher, North Darfur, where she emerged as a prominent voice for the IDPs. For her advocacy, Hawa has been persecuted and detained on multiple occasions by the Government of Sudan, and was forced to flee Sudan in 2011. In spite of the personal harassment and political challenges that she has faced, Hawa hopes to return to her homeland to continue defending the rights of Darfuris, and in particular the rights of women and children.
Safak Pavey, the first disabled woman elected to the Turkish Parliament, has demonstrated great personal dignity in overcoming physical obstacles every day, while locally and globally championing the rights of vulnerable populations, including refugees and disabled persons. Whether working in extreme conditions for the United Nations High Commission on Refugees (UNHCR) in the Middle East, South Asia and Africa, or acting as a lightning rod to spark the UN Interagency Support Group for the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, Pavey has sought to turn her disability into strength on a global level. After winning a seat in the Turkish parliament in June 2011, Pavey is continuing to give voice to disabled persons, women, and minority populations in Turkey as well.


Guest presenter: Dr. Terrel (Terry) Rhodes, Vice President, Association of American Colleges & Universities (AAC&U).
This interactive workshop invites attendees to consider the learning outcomes of their own courses and curriculum in the framework of what we know works for enhancing student learning for all students. In Ensuring Quality and Taking High-Impact Practices to Scale, George Kuh and Ken O'Donnell (2013) list a set of characteristics that are associated with deeper student learning through highly effective practices. Further, research demonstrates that the use of multiple high impact practices amplifies engaged learning.
Workshop participants are encouraged to come with a curricular and/or co-curricular program in mind along with some key learning outcomes connected to their program.
Terrel Rhodes is Vice President, Office of Quality, Curriculum and Assessment and Executive Director of VALUE at the Association of American Colleges and Universities (AAC&U) where he focuses on the quality of undergraduate education, access, general education, e-portfolios and assessment of student learning. He was a faculty member for twenty-five years. He leads the faculty-driven assessment project on student learning entitled Valid Assessment of Learning in Undergraduate Education (VALUE) that now involves 100 institutions in twelve states in a nationwide project to assess student learning in partnership with the State Higher education Executive Officers association. VALUE faculty teams developed rubrics for the full range of Essential Learning Outcomes that can be used with authentic student work to demonstrate quality student learning. Also, he lead the Quality Collaboratives initiative, working in nine states with twenty 2- and 4-year partner campuses testing the usefulness of the Degree Qualifications Profile (DQP) as a transfer framework focused on student learning mastery rather than seat time or credit accumulation. For the past seven years, he has lead AAC&U's e-portfolio initiatives to enhance student learning, including the annual E-Portfolio Forum. Read more.

Entertainment's weekly spin with Pouya, Xavier Wolf, Greyson Chance and more
This week's playlist features the craziest band name you've ever heard of, as well as some up-and-coming talent.
(Trevor Wilson/Amherst Wire)
Amherst Wire Staff
With more music being released than ever before, Amherst Wire's Entertainment team keeps you posted with some of their favorite tracks of the week. Check it out below:
"whatever mane" – Pouya, Xavier Wulf
Astghik Dion, editor
From the reigning underground OGs of creepy SoundCloud rap comes a long-awaited collab, "whatever mane." Staying true to their cryptic southern roots, the track is saturated in stifling 808s and a gritty beat reminiscent of horrorcore from DJ Spock. The song is the first release for Pouya since "The South Got Something To Say," his third studio album. Lyrics like, "And don't you even try to play stupid/I'm really known to do it /All I do is play my own music," prove how Pouya and Wulf have been dominating the rap game for years, regardless of who's been listening.
"Boots" – Greyson Chance
Nasya Blackshear, writer
Greyson Chance is no longer a young boy writing songs on his piano, his newest single "Boots" shows a mature side to his music that hasn't been seen before. His smooth and sultry voice over a techno-country track, Chance creates a new dance hit. "Boots with the steel toe, hot on the pavement / I didn't grow up like you, on vacation / I've been western before all of these punks," are just some of the lyrics from "Boots" where Chance shows where he's come from and where he's going.
"Nude Casino" – Iguana Death Cult
Adam Buckley, writer
A clear front-runner for both title and band name of the year, the Dutch five-some that is the Iguana Death Cult released their second full length record, "Nude Casino." A jangling clean guitar riff rides waves of a bouncy bassline and surf rock drums. Lead singer and guitarist Jeroen Reek slurs and murmurs like a younger Bob Dylan after a few vodka Red Bulls, dishing tales about dancing on the edge of cliffs, conversations with the Dalai Llama and shaking cocktails from the hip. A cocktail of upbeat psychedelia and modern garage punk, this track is the perfect antidote to colder weather.
"Hit Me Up" – Omar Apollo ft. Dominic Fike & Kenny Beats
Brianna Silva, writer
Blending Omar Apollo's angelic vocals with Dominic Fike's unique style, Kenny Beats' has once again produced a distinct and melodious hit. "Hit Me Up" is fresh, mellow and modern. The song opens with Apollo effortlessly singing, "Said, I've got some time I'm abusin' / Change my mind if you ever switch it up / And I won't waste my time if you pursue me / I'll let you know if you ever hit me up." Just when you think the song can't get any better, Fike pops in seamlessly. It's clear the two artists mesh perfectly together. You'll have "Hit Me Up" playing on repeat this week.
"Sad Songs In The Summer" – Olivia O'Brien
Kacey Connolly, editor
Olivia O'Brien delivers a new bop just seven months after the release of her album, "Was It Even Real?" One of two new singles on what we can assume will be another new album titled, "It Was A Sad F***ing Summer," O'Brien gives listeners an electronic pop tune packed with spunk and edge, relaying the perfect 21st century love story with lines like, "Sad songs in the summer / Heartbreak to the stereo / Find ways to recover / But it's hard tryna let you go." With lyrics that ooze nostalgia and a beat that makes you want to bump to the song on max volume in the car, O'Brien shows us pure moxie, singing "And I can't listen to old Nirvana / Won't even think about drinking vodka" with raw power and a hint of rage.
"Bankroll" – 88Glam ft Lil Keed
Shane Guilfoyle, writer
The XO boys are back, and this time they brought out the snakes. A little background first, Derick Wise and 88 Camino link to create 88Glam, a Canadian rap duo signed under Republic and XO, who are in the process of recording their third studio album. This month saw the release of "Bankroll," a single from the duo's upcoming project, featuring YSL's Lil Keed.
88Glam operates as a division of labour between its two members. 88 Camino creates hooks while Derick Wise drops most of the lyrical content found in their versus. In "Bankroll" Camino meets the ears with an alluring cadence that flows accordingly with the background 808s. A mix of sinister and sauce is delivered, as Camino delivers a hook detailing his abundance of racks and the tie-dye glow of his chain. Notable here, a shout out to "the woah's" creator, 10K.Caash, when Camino says "10k.Caash but I don't do no dance (It my slatt, 10k)."
Lil Keed comes in during the first verse to deliver an expansive and effortless flow; Keed does things his way, where were all simply passengers in for the ride.
Highlightable bars include "Put a hitter on a Perc', it was early morning /Pull up, get a backend, ain't doing no tourin' (Backend, backend) /23 on my coupe, I ain't talkin' no Jordan (23)."
Derick Wise rounds of the song with statement lines such as "Sittin' in PJ's with these PJ's, all my life this was a goal, yeah /Shoe size twelve and a half, but triple S is forty-four, yeah." This repetition of "yeah" occurs throughout the versus first half, creating a nice sense of rhythm.

Wed 25th Oct 2017 - Update: Sector dynamics, Whitbread, Heineken
Douglas Jack – the demand and supply dynamics now more attractive for pubs than restaurants: Peel Hunt leisure analyst Douglas Jack has argued that the quoted pub sector is a more attractive investment proposition than the restaurant sector. He said: "The supply/demand dynamics of the pub market are more attractive than that of the restaurant sector. With drinking out recovering, the managed pub sector is now more active at repositioning assets away from value towards premium brands than from drink to food. Overall, the quoted operators have above-average exposure to premium venues and to London. Pub drink price increases are correlated to the current price level, implying that premium priced venues have less price-sensitive customers. In both pubs and restaurants, the premium segment is outperforming in relation to pricing and volumes. Tenanted pubs are performing at least as well as managed pubs. Managed pub like-for-like sales rose by 0.9% on average (1.8% in London; 0.6% outside London) in the year to September 2017 (Coffer Peach Tracker). In comparison, the quoted tenanted operators generated average like-for-like net income growth of 2.3% during the last year. Restaurant demand and supply growth is slowing, with large operators cutting back on expansion and independents likely to contract in size. As with pubs, premium venues are outperforming in the restaurant sector. However, for the sector as a whole, like-for-like sales are minimal versus c3% being needed to offset costs, with limited scope to mitigate costs and diversify revenue. Overall, managed restaurant like-for-like sales rose 0.3% (0.1% in London; 0.4% outside London) in the year to September 2017 (Coffer Peach Tracker). Somehow, independent restaurant numbers rose in H1 2017; we view this as being unsustainable. Traditional pizza market demand slowed from 8% to 4% in H1 2017, but with Domino's growing by 7% vs 1% for the rest of the market. This largely reflected tough comps, unfavourable weather and increased competition. Domino's dominates the sub-sector in relation to profitability, advertising fund, and has controls and profits that aggregator deliverers can only dream of. We expect Domino's, with 46% share, to drive stronger growth in H2 2017. Domino's Pizza, Fuller Smith & Turner and Shepherd Neame have the strongest balance sheets in the sector, and Ei Group and Restaurant Group have the weakest, in our view. Even though trading conditions are tough for many companies, we believe the sector's cash flow should rise steadily over the next two years. Corporate activity is being dominated by the pub sector, with national brewers re-entering/extending their ownership. Recent restaurant sector corporate activity has involved companies being bought out of administration. The largest quoted pub and restaurant operators are focused on rebranding and repositioning their outlets. Pressure to acquire should increase in 2019E if cost pressure does not abate, and cost mitigation opportunities start to wane. We believe Revolution Bars Group's (RBG) shareholders turned down a 203p/share cash offer as a result of Deltic's equity merger proposal, which we estimate was worth 280p/share at a 10% equity FCF yield if £22m of shareholder loan notes convert to equity (314p/share if they do not). We do not believe shareholders voted for the company to remain independent. The failure to engage with Deltic, combined with Takeover Panel rules, forced Deltic to withdraw its offer, however Deltic has stated that restrictions on it bidding for RBG do not apply if the board of directors of Revolution agrees to engage. We believe RBG shareholders want the Deltic merger to proceed. This would resolve stewardship issues and create significant shareholder value. Thus, we believe management should now engage with Deltic. Our forecasts are slightly below consensus. We believe Hollywood Bowl, Ten Entertainment and Domino's Pizza have the greatest scope to exceed like-for-like sales expectations, whereas Restaurant Group's forecasts carry the greatest downgrade risk in our view. We believe Fuller Smith & Turner and Shepherd Neame have the greatest scope to exceed expansion expectations."
Heineken reports UK Third Quarter volume drop, growth elsewhere: Heineken has reported volumes in the UK were down double digit in it Third Quarter , continuing to be impacted by a partial de-listing at a large customer. Overall, consolidated beer volume was up 2.5% organically, with growth in Asia Pacific, Americas and Africa, Middle East and Eastern Europe offsetting lower volume in Europe against tough comparatives. Heineken volume was up 3.4% driven by Brazil, South Africa, Russia and Mexico. Jean-François van Boxmeer, chairman of the executive board and chief executive, said: "Performance in the third quarter was solid, with an acceleration of organic volume growth in Asia Pacific and Africa, Middle East and Eastern Europe. Growth in Asia Pacific continued to be driven by Vietnam and Cambodia whilst in Africa, Middle East and Eastern Europe, the main contributors were Russia, Ethiopia and South Africa. In the Americas, Mexico continued to deliver, and weaker volumes in the US were offset by growth coming from Brazil. Europe had to face tough comparatives, partly due to less favourable weather in some key markets. During the period we completed the acquisition of Punch Securitisation A. Our full year expectations remain unchanged."
Morgan Stanley downgrades Whitbread after share price drop: Morgan Stanley leisure analysts have downgraded Whitbread's after yesterday's half year results. A note stated: "Premier Inn's single brand, single market, owned/leased structure is not in vogue, but this structure has created arguably the "best" listed hotel chain globally, with an occupancy rate exceeding 80%, TripAdvisor score of 4.4, an OTA mix of just 5%, a unit growth rate of 7%, and a 65% freehold mix. Costa is by far the largest coffee chain in the UK and the second largest globally, offers upside from its new product and technology improvements, and is seeing rapid expansion not just in the UK but also overseas. Overall, we forecast Whitbread will generate a FY17-20e CAGR of 8% for both sales and EPS (nearly all from expansion rather than like-for-like growth), leading to a company trading on a cal 2020 P/E of 11.5x and EV/Ebitda of 7.5x. Our sum-of-the-parts values the shares at £45, 20% above the current share price. The company devoted more time (yesterday) to discussing its International divisions, and although profits improved sharply (£1m to £4m for Costa, £(3)m to £(2)m for Hotels), these are unlikely to move the dial much, in our view, even if the company does achieve its £25-30m Costa International Ebit target by 2020. Similarly, although there has been more investor chatter about the group structure recently, management sounded very committed to it, noting group synergies in achieving efficiencies for Costa which is only mid way into a multi-year turnaround, and that Premier Inn's real estate backing creates capital gains that can be recycled as well as relatively high margins. With concerns over the UK economy and Brexit likely to linger for some time, and trading likely to remain dull (Costa faces a tough Q3 comp at +2.9%), which will be reported late January, just being "cheap" or a "good company" do not appear to be sufficient for outperformance. We have no doubt that Whitbread's brands will emerge stronger than the competition, but until investors know how long this period of dull trading will last, we would not be surprised to see the "buyer's strike" remaining. We are cognisant our positive rating has not worked, and disappointed to be downgrading after yesterday's share price drop, particularly with 20% upside to our new £45 price target. However, we think the significant uncertainties over the UK economy could hang over the shares for an extended period."


The Classic Polished range is factory sealed and is to be bonded with the more affordable ceramic tile adhesive. A unique feature about the Classic Polished tile is that joints and tiles can be smooth ground at an additional cost, after laying, to achieve a "Grooveless Floor" finish, allowing supermarket trolleys or suitcases with wheels, ease of movement across the floor, ensuring an ideal floor for shopping centres, airports and train stations.
A matching UFT Tile grout with bonding liquid should be used. Contact us for more technical information in this regard. A second coat of SQT tile sealer is recommended after installation. In high traffic areas such as shopping malls and airports etc, a top coat of SQT Dresser, a sacrificial and buffable sealer, is to be applied, for optimum shine and ease of maintenance.

Mugwort Cut 2oz
Known as well as common wormwood, Artemisia Vulgaris, felon herb, chrysanthemum weed, wild wormwood, Old Uncle Henry, Sailor's Tobacco, Old Man, and St John's Plant, Mugwort is native to Europe, Asia, and North Africa, and has become an invasive weed in North America. Its leaves have have long been used as a flavoring agent to season fat, meat, or fish, and is perhaps most famously known for seasoning Goose in Germanic traditions. In Japan and Korea it is also known for being used to color festive rice cakes, and is a common seasoning within Korean soups and pancakes. It should be noted that Mugwort can be a hallucinogenic, but when cooked those properties are neutralized. In the mid-ages Mugwort was part of a herbal mix called Gruit, which was used to flavor beer before the widespread use of hops, likely resulting in hallucination as well as inebriation! In ancient and medieval times Mugwort was also used for its magical properties, where it was seen as a protective herb that could dispel fatigue and protect a traveler from evil spirits and wild animals. Indeed, it was included in the 10th century "Nine Herb Charm" that is said to ward off poison and illness. It is also supiced to be a potent aid in lucid dreaming, astral travel, and otherwise increasing the intensity of dreams, as well as the ability to control and remember them. In Ayurveda medicine in India, Mugwort is also used for cardiac complaints, feelings of unease, and general malaise. Within Chinese medicine, it is pulverized and aged into a form called Moxa. In this form it has shown a great deal of aid in positioning fetuses that are in breech positioning. Moxa and acupuncture has also been shown to slow fetal heart rates while increasing fetal movement. Moxa has also been shown however to possibly cause uterine contractions. This is a 2 oz packet of cut Mugwort.

Svetlana Kuznetsova
Svetlana Kuznetsova advances in Indian Wells, to face Caroline Wozniacki
Second-seeded Russian Svetlana Kuznetsova battled to a 6-1 4-6 6-3 victory over Slovakia's Dominika Cibulkova in the third round of the Pacific Life Open on Sunday.
World No.3 Kuznetsova was a runner-up in Indian Wells last year, when she lost to another Slovakian, Daniela Hantuchova, in the final.
Against world No.40 Cibulkova, who recently added a victory over Venus Williams to her resume, Kuznetsova made many errors in the second set. The Russian, a runner-up this year in Sydney and Dubai, managed to up her game in the third set to book a place in the next round against Denmark's 17-year-old Caroline Wozniacki, a player I closely keep an eye on.
World No.47 Wozniacki, who won the 2006 Wimbledon junior title, brushed aside Aiko Nakamura of Japan 6-0 6-2 today in Indian Wells.

I didn't make the contest deadline, but there's always next time!
I have to know how you processed that bass riff. It contrasts the strings really nicely.
Also is this really compressed by design or does Soundcloud just enforce a low dynamic range on everything?
As for the low dynamic range, that would be SoundCloud's doing. You can download the WAV or I can provide a link to a high quality OGG if you prefer.
That's a real shame they still do that. It's the one thing preventing me from using my account.

The exhibition to mark the 60th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
The opening ceremony for the exhibition at the Straka Academy was held on Monday 13 October. The exhibition was opened by Prime Minister M. Topolánek and Minister Džamila Stehlíková. Mário Biháry and Adam Pospíšil appeared as guests at the opening. The concept for the exhibition was authored by MUDr. Zdeněk Kalvach.
At the Dawn – An exhibition commemorating the never-ending process of ennobling humanity.
The exhibition is to honour the Declaration and the attempts and ideals of both its creators and defenders of human rights. It aims to at least briefly remind viewers of the historical context and development trends that, in developed countries, today primarily accent equal opportunities, anti-discrimination measures, social inclusion, self-realisation and participation of minorities, and the humanisation of the life of especially disadvantaged and endangered people. The aim is not a teaching exhibition, a comprehensive explanation with definitions and lists of documents, institutions, agendas and a summary of current problems.
It presents more of a view into the world of human rights, an outline of its scope and a mosaic of activities without a demand for completeness—there is no space, for example, for prison matters, national and international controls on compliance with human rights and many important partial phenomena, some of which would be worth a separate exhibition of their own. The aim of the exhibition is not only to inform, but primarily to heighten interest, public discussion, involved citizenship and the resolution of partial phenomena—as we are still at the dawn of full emancipation and equal opportunities for all human beings.
The authors of the project (see below) are also aware that the current young generation, which, luckily, does not have direct experience of totalitarianism and the managed debasement of human dignity, perceives freedom as something obvious and invulnerable. One of the exhibition's significant aims is to encourage young people's interest in the issue of human rights. Only if young people realise how much work, sacrifice and experience stands behind the current form of democracy will they be able to avoid some tragic errors in their own search and discovery of what freedom means.
Because, in particular, young people should get the chance to fully realise that they are the proud bearers of a message about the indomitability of human desire for the search for justice and freedom. For them, the history of the development of human rights and democracy should be a source of self-confidence, mistrust of generalisations of all types, respect and courage. Courage for real freedom of thought. This freedom places immense demands on people. And this is why man is still at the dawn of implementing his ideals.

Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia receives COVID-19 vaccine
By Brittani Barger
US Secretary of State/Public Domain
Crown Princes Mohammad bin Salman, 35, has received his first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine. This was part of a national immunisation plan organised by the Ministry of Health.
The Saudi Press Agency released a photo of the Crown Prince receiving the vaccine in Riyadh, no doubt as a way of encouraging the Saudi people to get the jab, as well. It was also recorded and broadcast live.
Crown Prince Mohammad (also called MBS) will receive his second dose at a later date. He received the first dose on Christmas morning.
Tawfiq Al-Rabiah, the Minister of Health, thanked the future monarch for receiving the vaccine and his work in getting the vaccine to the country. According to Arab News, over 500,000 Saudis have already registered to receive the jab since they began giving shots last Tuesday.
It is thought that the Crown Prince is the first royal to receive the vaccine. Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip are in the first group to receive the shot in the UK. Buckingham Palace has said they will reveal when The Queen and Duke of Edinburgh have received the vaccine, but they have not said when that will be.

2021-02-12 12:42:16 | live score and latest updates from Melbourne
February 12, 2021 - by Uche Amako - Leave a Comment
Story by: Uche Amako The Telegraph
Hello and welcome to coverage of Novak Djokovic's third-round clash with Taylor Fritz at the Australian Open.
The world No 1 needed four sets to beat Frances Tiafoe on Wednesday and he faces another American today.
This clash will follow the first match of the night session on Rod Laver Arena between Veronika Kudermetova and Simona Halep.
Meanwhile, overnight more than six million people were ordered into a five-day lockdown on Friday to contain a new coronavirus outbreak in Australia's second most populous state, Victoria, forcing the tennis tournament in Melbourne to shut fans out.
The lockdown across Victoria state from midnight (13:00 GMT) was ordered out of fear a small outbreak of the "hyper-infectious" UK strain of the virus would undo Australia's so-far successful battle to contain the pandemic, Victoria state Premier Daniel Andrews said.
It dealt another blow to the year's first Grand Slam, which started three weeks late to allow international players to quarantine and had already welcomed tens of thousands of socially distanced fans in the biggest crowds seen in tennis since the pandemic.
Under the lockdown restrictions, people will only be allowed to leave their homes for a limited number of "essential" activities like shopping and exercise, and public gatherings were prohibited. Face masks are mandatory when outside the home.
It was a setback for residents and businesses who underwent a similar lockdown in and around Melbourne for more than 100 days late last year in a successful effort to contain an earlier outbreak that infected thousands and killed about 800.

Australian Open director Craig Tiley gave assurances that the tournament would continue, with players deemed essential workers exempt from lockdown, competing in a "bubble form".
"The players have all been very good about it. They understand. They have been through a rigorous programme already," he added.
The problems at the Australian Open, the biggest international sports event so far this year, underline the difficulties of holding the much more complex Tokyo Olympics, which are due to start in July after a year's delay.
Play at six warm-up tournaments in Melbourne were also suspended for a day last week when a worker tested positive at one of the official hotels.
