It will be tough to unseat the defending pennant winners in Chicago and Cleveland.
First things first: Some team is lurking in the weeds to mess all this up. It always happens.
With that out of the way, we present USA TODAY Sports' projected win totals for the 2017 Major League Baseball season. For this, our second annual foray into forecasting all 30 teams' records come Game 162, we've made a few tweaks.
A six-person panel of reporters and editors replaces our previous forecasting model, consisting of one well-meaning but slightly unhinged human. Consequently, there are fewer outliers and the final results look a bit more chalk, for better or worse. As last year proved, there's costs and benefits to the human element.
For those of you who enjoyed 2016's rollicking postseason, good news: Our projected playoff field returns nine of 10 clubs from last year, including the entire NL crew. In the AL, only the Houston Astros crash the proceedings, bumping the Texas Rangers down to a wild-card game.
That doesn't mean our simulation is devoid of drama. The NL pennant chase was a doozy, with just two games separating the 90-win, East champion Washington Nationals and the St. Louis Cardinals, who missed the playoffs altogether. Wedged in between: The 89-win San Francisco Giants and New York Mets, projected to meet again in the wild-card game.
And fret not if your team is on the wrong side of the playoff line – it doesn't mean everybody hates you. Among contending teams, the Baltimore Orioles had the widest divergence among our panel – a high of 89 and a low of 75, like a nice day in Sarasota.
So, while we can't offer the thousands of season simulations that more established projections perform, we do put forth the collective efforts of a half-dozen well-informed minds. One of these years, we'll get it all right.
The Red Sox (94 wins) are the first of our four unanimous division winners, and for good reason. No team in the East can match the potential dominance of the newly created David Price-Rick Porcello-Chris Sale triumvirate. Even if a Big Papi-less offense can't match its major league-leading 836 runs, it shouldn't matter. … The Blue Jays (87 wins) are equipped for a return to wild card land, this time driven by a maturing rotation rather than a suffocating lineup. … Count out the Orioles (84 wins) at your own risk. They excel at tweaking the roster throughout the season; wear a helmet on Eutaw Street. … Will the Yankees (80 wins) finish below .500 for the first time since 1992? Their pitching depth will either be a huge asset or epitomize their mediocrity. … Once again, the Rays (75 wins) are a mystery. If the young pitching coalesces with the veteran arms, they can be scary.
Our panel loves the Indians (95 wins), projecting them between 92 and 101 victories, and why not? The pennant winners now feature 100% more Edwin Encarnacion. … Then there are the Tigers (85 wins), who had the tiniest variance in our group – between 83 and 86 wins, staying alive to the final weekend one more time. … The Royals (83 wins) have greater motivation than out-kicking the always negative projection models – they're playing to keep together a team loaded with pending free agents. … Seems like ages ago when the White Sox (68 wins) started out 23-10 last year. At least a fourth-place finish this year will come with both eyes on the future. … The Twins (66 wins) get no favors playing in a top-heavy division. A pitching staff with a major league-worst 5.08 ERA returns mostly intact.
The Astros (90 wins) and Rangers (89) will do their best to detract from football season in September by staging a tightly-contested pennant race. Five of our six panelists say Astros, by a field goal. … The Mariners (85 wins) likely won't confuse activity for achievement anytime soon. GM Jerry Dipoto has made 36 trades in two years and 11 this off-season. For all this, they win one less game than 2016? … The Angels (74 wins) are held together by Mike Trout and platelet-rich plasma injections for their pitching staff. You can definitely bank on one of those coming through. … Once again, the Athletics (70 wins) are a polarizing bunch, falling anywhere from 65 to 78 wins. That probably means they're going to win the division.
Who are the top remaining MLB free agents on the market?
Despite finishing 1-2 the past two years, not much of a rivalry has developed between the Nationals (90 wins) and Mets (89). Perhaps a race that comes down to the final weekend will change that. … The Marlins (75 wins) can be forgiven if their minds wander this year. Jose Fernandez remains irreplaceable, in every way. … The Phillies (74 wins) are coming on quickly. Is .500 a possibility? One of our panelists thinks so … The Braves (70 wins) have a new ballpark and more household names – R.A. Dickey, back in SEC country – on the field, but will still take their licks.
So this is how it is now – a 99-win season is the expectation for the Cubs. And why not? So long as their 1-2-3 of Jon Lester, Jake Arrieta and Kyle Hendricks stay healthy, they're deep enough to absorb body blows elsewhere. … Can the Cardinals (88 wins) turn the tables on the Cubs by stealing an All-Star outfielder and winning the division? Not quite, but Dexter Fowler is just about a perfect fit in St. Louis … Has the window closed in Pittsburgh? The Pirates (81 wins) hope not, but a winter of failed attempts to move their franchise player seems to portend a season of potentially bad vibes … The Brewers (72 wins) surprised us with a decent season amid tanking accusations. Then, they cut loose 41-home run man Chris Carter and replaced him with Eric Thames. Progress? … The Reds (66 wins) run their pitching staff more like a line change in hockey – three in, three out. They're amassing quality depth, but it's still a ways from coming together.
It actually rained this winter in California, proving anything is possible. Nonetheless, a fourth consecutive 1-2 finish for the Dodgers (92 wins) and Giants (89 wins) seems inevitable. The Dodgers won 91 games while getting just 149 innings from Clayton Kershaw. In his absence, they developed the depth to roll potentially eight deep in the rotation this year. Mark Melancon seems to age better than Bruce Bochy's finest red wines; the Giants are betting $62 million that continues. … Trendy Team Alert: The Rockies (81 wins) are potential darlings this year, with a serviceable pitching staff, decent human and versatile slugger Ian Desmond and a solid manager in Bud Black. They, too, split our panel in half and ultimately landed at .500. It certainly won't be boring in Denver. … Just how far back did the Tony La Russa-led regime set back the Diamondbacks (74 wins)? The digging out begins anew, but a healthy A.J. Pollock and new digs for Taijuan Walker probably won't change the landscape much. … Speaking of teardowns, the Padres (65 wins) have an emerging core of position player prospects, but a rotation better suited for 2012 – Clayton Richard, Jhoulys Chacin, Trevor Cahill. It's going to take a while.


Unfortunately, Miss Charis White will not be judging at our show on 20th April, so the following judge changes have been made.

Birmingham Seaholm raised its record to 2-0 on the season with a 5-1 victory over Bloomfield Hills in a second-round game in the annual Oakland County pre-season tournament Tuesday.
The Maples iced their four-run victory with a four-run third inning which included an RBI single from senior center field Jake Dietz. Junior right fielder Liam Neel and Dietz later scored in the inning on Black Hawk errors.
Dietz finished with a pair of hits while Neel and junior Aaron Kelly accounted for the other Maple hits.
Justin Miller was the winning pitcher as he went four innings while allowing five hits and striking out three. Kelly hurled the final three innings of shutout relief.
"We definitely had good pitching with a lot of strikes," said Seaholm's first-year head coach John Toth. "I liked the fact we played with good energy and enthusiasm. Our kids were ready to play ball."
Bloomfield Hills was led by senior second baseman Cameron Greer who had a pair of hits. Junior Austin Terlecky pitched all seven innings for the Black Hawks with four strike outs and five walks.
"Seaholm's pitchers did a good job of pitching out of trouble early in the game," said Bloomfield Hills head coach Frank DiVito. "We could not put multiple hits together with runners on base."
On Tuesday, Seaholm defeated Southfield-Lathrup, 7-5, in the tournament opener.
The Maples pounded out seven hits in that game, led by a pair from Dietz. Tucker Pfaff, Graham Girdler, Dustin Maylath-Bryant, Chase Powers and Miller also had a hit in that game.
Neel picked up the win out of the bullpen. He did not give up an earned run in four innings of work, allowing four hits and striking out seven.
Seaholm plays its third game of pool play 2 p.m. tomorrow at home against Marysville. If the Maples win, they would advance to the tournament's championship bracket which is scheduled to be played Saturday.

Rian Johnson's Star Wars Trilogy Canceled Rumors Roar Up Yet Again
Rian Johnson's new Star Wars trilogy has reportedly been cancelled. The news comes after Disney revealed their release schedule for the franchise over the course of the next handful of years. The 2022, 2024, and 2026 release dates are all allegedly going to be the trilogy from Game of Thrones showrunners D.B. Weiss and David Benioff, according to sources close to the matter. Obviously, this is not the first time that this rumor has come up, but there seems to be a larger element of evidence to suggest it's actually true this time.
First of all, it has not been confirmed by anyone at Disney nor Lucasfilm that Rian Johnson's Star Wars trilogy isn't happening any more. However, with the new release dates all reportedly centered around David Benioff and D.B. Weiss' trilogy, it looks, at the very least, like Johnson's story won't be coming out for close to a decade. Now, Disney and Lucasfilm could be waiting to announce further release dates, but it seems they are taking a step back from the frequent Star Wars releases after The Last Jedi and Solo: A Star Wars Story backlash. The studio seems to be working with Disney+ and the big screen for future releases.
It's also possible the upcoming Rian Johnson trilogy story could have been taken to Disney+ where maybe he decided he didn't want to work on it any further. Sources close to the situation claim that he could be a consultant on D.B. Weiss and David Benioff's Star Wars trilogy. Whatever the case may be, it currently does not look good for fans who were waiting to see what Johnson was going to pull off outside of the Skywalker saga. Obviously, this information comes from "trusted" sources, so this could all be fake news.
Back in February of this year, Rian Johnson confirmed he was still working on his trilogy. And in April, the director said he was going to begin working on it after the November release of his highly anticipated Knives Out. That was all before Disney unveiled their release schedule. Again, this could all be rumor and nobody would know about the situation better than Johnson. With that being said, Disney has had no problem cutting recent Star Wars projects or even firing directors after production has already started.
If the noise gets loud enough, Disney, Lucasfilm, and Rian Johnson will more than likely respond. While there was a backlash against The Last Jedi, there are still plenty of fans who want to see what Johnson has to offer with a new trilogy and different characters. Hopefully, this ends up to just a rumor and Johnson will begin working on the project like he said he was going to. For now, we'll treat this as a rumor until we hear otherwise. The Rian Johnson cancelled Star Wars trilogy news was first reported by John Campea's YouTube channel.

Home News Full Kovalev vs. Pascal undercard: Cunningham-Glazkov, Dierry Jean, Mikhaylenko
Full Kovalev vs. Pascal undercard: Cunningham-Glazkov, Dierry Jean, Mikhaylenko
Credit: David Spagnolo / Main Events
Fight fans will have the chance to see high quality boxing on the undercard of the Sergey Kovalev vs. Jean Pascal fight at the Bell Centre in Montreal on March 14th. Main Events and InterBox are happy to unveil the undercard fights that will complete this exciting evening.
Théroux vs Janik
A Sorel-Tracy native, David Théroux (5-0-0, 3 K.O.) is the youngest rookie of the InterBox stable. At the Bell Centre, he will fight Lukasz Janik (13-9-1, 7 K.O.) in a 4 round matchup. This isn't Janik's first visit in Montreal. He fought Ulysse Junior and pushed Steven Butler to the limit in December. Théroux will try to win his 6th consecutive fight, which would be his 2nd with InterBox after signing a three year deal in December.
Dmitry Mikhaylenko vs TBD
The Russian boxer Dmitry Mikhaylenko (18-0-0, 7 K.O.) only made his North American debut a year ago. He will come in Montréal with one idea in mind: winning in order to stay undefeated. His opponent has yet to be determined.
Bogdan Dinu vs TBD
Bogdan Dinu who has a record of 12-0-0, 8 K.-O., will also be a part of this night in a 8 rounds fight. His opponent will be announce in the next few days.
Ulysse Junior vs Miguel Antoine
The promising Ulysse Junior (5-0-0, 3 K.O.), who is still undefeated in five bouts, will try to keep his perfect record in an eight round fight versus Miguel Antoine (17-1-1, 9 K.O.), a competitive boxer from Barbados with an excellent record and much more ring experience than the young Ulysse.
Nadjib Mohammedi vs Lee Junior Campbell
Nadjib Mohammedi (37-3-0, 22 K.O.), who gracefully accepted to let Jean Pascal take his place for Kovalev's IBF title, will face Lee Junior Campbell (8-1-0, 4 K.O.). This bout will be Mohammedi's first fight under the orders of the excellent trainer Abel Sanchez. Sanchez is also the trainer of highly rated World champion Gennady Golovkin. These ten rounds will be nothing but allowing Mohammedi to kill time and get work in with Sanchez as he awaits a title challenge.
Dierry Jean vs TBD
After a pause to take care of a health concern, Dierry Jean is ready to get back in the ring. He doesn't know who will be his opponent but that's not what will stop him. The Eye of the Tiger boxer can't wait to come into the ring to the Bell Centre roars and only desires one thing: To renew with ring action in order to win.
Cunningham vs Glazkov
On January 14th, Main Events and InterBox announced the undercard bout between Steve Cunningham (28-6-0, 13 K.O) and Vyacheslav Glazkov (19-0-0, 12 K.O.). Cunningham, a 38 year old with an 18 years career in professional boxing, will be fighting on HBO for the first time. Glazkov, who's still undefeated, will try to protect his perfect record. The winner of this fight will become the mandatory challenger for the IBF Heavyweight title currently in the hands of Wladimir Klitschko (63-3-0, 53 K.O)

The Reconnection is the umbrella process of reconnecting to the universe. This is a 2 step process that takes place between 2-3 days. The Reconnection connects our axiatonal lines to these healing frequencies. These healings and evolutionary frequencies are of a new bandwidth brought in via a spectrum of light and information. It is through The Reconnection that we are able to interact with these new levels of light and information, and it is through these new levels of light and information that we are able to reconnect. This is something new. This is different. This is real—and it can be entrained in each of us. The Reconnection is a 2 session process that connects you to the energies of Mother Earth & the Universe. The process allows for "the exchange – beyond energy – of light and information". During the Reconnection, DNA strands are connected. The same "strings" spoken of in quantum physics are reintegrated. To experience the full benefit, Reconnections need to be done within 3 days of each other.
Amy's Reconnection Experience
My personal experience was that I could physically feel myself being "plugged in" or "connected up" with the energy. I had involuntary muscle movements called 'registers'. My temperature changed from warm to cold and back again and I could feel the energy running through my system. After the 2nd session, I spent close to 12 hours sleeping as the new energies integrated.
The following 2 weeks, I had an increased appetite and I noticed I was very solidly grounded. More so than I had ever before been. And it happened so naturally, I didn't even have to try. This was a huge change for me. I remember walking in our home and feeling like my feet were sinking a foot below the floors. I was able to think clearer and be more present. I felt Amazing! And as a healer it has helped me in my practice significantly as I am now able to access and bring in a wider spectrum of frequencies. Like many others, I have also noticed significant changes in my outlook on life. Many people report that after their Reconnection, their life lessons speed up more quickly. We feel more aligned with our life purpose.
Dr. Pearl explains The Reconnection
"Originally the meridian lines (sometimes called acupuncture lines) on our bodies were connected to the grid lines that encircle the planet and intersect at acknowledged power places such as Machu Picchu and Sedona. These lines continued out and connected us to a vastly larger grid, tying us to the entire universe.
Each of our bodies contains its own set of energetic lines and points. Although only remnants of what they once were, these lines and points continue to serve as our interface with the universe: a channel that facilitates our communication of energy, light and information between large and small, macrocosm and microcosm, the universe and humankind.
At one point in time, we became disconnected from these lines and we lost the fullness of our inherent connection to the universe, distancing us from our previously rapid and expansive rate of evolution. The Reconnection brings in "new" axiatonal lines that reconnect us on a more powerful and evolved level than ever before. These lines are part of a timeless network of intelligence, a parallel-dimensional system that draws the basic energy for the renewal functions of the human body."
The Reconnection ~$333
As set by Dr. Eric Pearl, all practitioners are asked to accept an exchange of $333 for facilitating The Reconnection. It is also strongly recommended that prior to The Reconnection, the receiver receives at a minimum of 1 Healing. The average suggested is 3, but it varies individually.

Earlier this week the Scioto County Commissioners reaffirmed Mike Payton, President of New Boston Village Council as an appointed member of the school board for the Scioto County Board of Developmental Disabilities (Board of DD). On Thursday the commissioners said they were wrong in making the appointment.
On Wednesday it was discovered that Julie Monroe, Superintendent of the Board of DD expressed concerns about Payton being appointed by the commissioners. Monroe addressed those concerns to the commissioners in a letter.
On November 3, New Boston Village Council passed a resolution allowing council members to serve as appointed members of board or committees. The resolution was passed as an emergency measure.
Crabtree said he had a conversation Tuesday morning with a member of the County Commissioners Association, who said unless the prosecutor's office has something that he's overlooked, the Ohio Revised Code was very clear about who could be appointed.
He said the commissioners will readvertise the position.
Calls to Payton were unreturned Thursday afternoon.
Those interested in being appointed a member of the Scioto County Board of Developmental Disabilities can call the district at 740-353-0636 and talk with the Superintendent's Office.


Overcome Codependency and Develop Healthy Relationships. Codependency is the tendency to over-control others. There is a very noble, unselfish, and authentic desire to help other people, but there is also a selfish component to codependence. The codependent is often very insecure and is just as dependent on the substance abuser as the abuser is on their substance. People who are co-dependent typically grew up in alcoholic or chemically dependent families and learned directly from their family of origin how they should act, and are simply just repeating what was taught. Relationships should be characterized by strong and equal relationships devoid of excessive need. This mental health video teaches how to accomplish this. Break the destructive co-dependent/addictive game that is so prevalent in the world today. Codependency is a disorder that can be understood and treated effectively and this educational video is presented in clear and easily understood language. By Jef Gazley, M.S., LMFT Copyright © 2006.

IT departments are under increasing pressure to design and implement advanced IT systems to meet their companies' operational needs and customer expectations. However, technology complexity and skill shortages are prompting businesses to seek more outside help from IT solution providers, a new study by TEKsystems finds.
The Lowdown: TEKsystems, an enterprise service provider, surveyed CIOs and senior IT executives about their technology and digital transformation plans for 2019. By and large, IT leaders believe their departments are responsible for helping their organizations gain a competitive edge over the next 24 months.
IT leaders are confident in their ability to design and manage IT projects involving new technologies such as data analytics, application development, cloud computing, automation, and security. However, IT leaders are feeling pressure to achieve transformational and impactful IT goals with their existing resources. An inability to hire the right and enough people with requisite skills is the largest challenge in project execution, the report states.
The Details: Technologies that CIOs and IT leaders are finding it difficult to address include cloud computing, data analytics, development operations, and security. The skill shortage comes at a time when the surveyed companies are undertaking major initiatives. Ninety percent say they are or will undertake an advanced security initiative, 84 percent say they're working on new cloud computing programs, 78 percent are developing new data analytics capabilities, and 72 percent are focusing on new development operations.
The Impact: While 80 percent of the surveyed CIOs and IT leaders expressed confidence in their ability to complete significant IT and transformation projects, they also say they can't do it alone. More than one-half (52 percent) expect to see spending increase for third-party and solution provider-driven IT projects and services. Another 35 percent are anticipating increased spending on outsourced IT services and support.
Channelnomics Point of View: The implications of the TEKsystems' survey results are significant for the overall IT channel, as they reflect the increasing demand for skilled service providers. Customers are looking to outside expert support for their professional services rather than product acquisition. Partners that can deliver professional services, particularly in advanced technologies with limited skilled labor pools, will find a welcoming market.


CGE staff, students and parents will work together to support, motivate and challenge each other to ensure each student is engaged, included and provided quality instruction. The result will be student achievement and professional growth within a positive, welcoming environment.
CGE staff, students and parents are committed to collaborating to ensure each person feels valued, respected, and has a sense of belonging. The positive, safe school climate will promote growth and independence.

ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) — The state of Alaska sued Interior Secretary Dirk Kempthorne on Monday, seeking to reverse his decision to list polar bears as a threatened species under the Endangered Species Act.
Gov. Sarah Palin and other state officials fear a listing will cripple offshore oil and gas development in the Chukchi and Beaufort seas in Alaska's northern waters, which provide prime habitat for the only polar bears under U.S. jurisdiction.
Arctic: Point of No Return?
WASHINGTON (AP) — The National Snow and Ice Data Center has reported that sea ice in the Arctic now covers about 2.03 million square miles. The lowest point since satellite measurements began in 1979 was 1.65 million square miles, last September.
With about three weeks left in the Arctic summer, this year could wind up breaking that record, scientists said.
Arctic ice always melts in summer and refreezes in winter. But over the years, more of the ice is lost to the sea with less of it recovered in winter. While ice reflects the sun's heat, the open ocean absorbs more heat, and the melting accelerates warming in other parts of the world.
Last year was an unusual year when wind currents and other weather conditions coincided with global warming to worsen sea ice melt, Dr. Serreze said. Scientists wondered if last year was an unusual event or the start of a new and disturbing trend.
This year's results suggest the latter because the ice had recovered a bit more than usual thanks to a somewhat cooler winter, Dr. Serreze said. Then this month, when the melting rate usually slows, it sped up instead, he said.
The most recent ice retreat primarily reflects melt in the Chukchi Sea, off Alaska's northwest coast, and the East Siberian Sea, off the coast of eastern Russia, according to the center.
The Chukchi Sea is home to one of two populations of Alaska polar bears.
Federal observers flying for a whale survey on Aug. 16 spotted nine polar bears swimming in open ocean in the Chukchi. The bears were 15 to 65 miles off the Alaska shore. Some were swimming north, apparently trying to reach the polar ice edge, which on that day was 400 miles away.
Polar bears are powerful swimmers and have been recorded on swims of 100 miles, but the ordeal can leave them exhausted and susceptible to drowning.
And the melt in sea ice has kicked in another effect, long predicted, called "Arctic amplification," Dr. Serreze said.
That is when the warming up north is increased in a feedback mechanism and the effects spill southward starting in autumn, Dr. Serreze said. Over the last few years, the bigger melt has meant more warm water that releases more heat into the air during fall cooling, making the atmosphere warmer than normal.
On top of that, researchers are investigating "alarming" reports in the last few days of the release of methane from long-frozen Arctic waters, possibly from the warming of the sea, said Bill Hare, a Greenpeace climate scientist, who was attending a climate conference in Ghana. Giant burps of methane, which is a potent greenhouse gas, is a long-feared effect of warming in the Arctic that would accelerate warming even more, according to scientists.

An international coalition of children exploring the high Arctic witnessed firsthand the latest dramatic development of climate change on Tuesday, July 22 as a huge chunk of ice was observed drifting off the Ward Hunt Island main ice shelf, forming two ice islands totaling 20 square kilometers. The children, assembled as The Young Ambassadors of the Arctic, are part of the Global Green USA and Green Cross Pax Arctica '08 expedition.

Le mardi 22 juillet, une coalition internationale d'enfants a été le premier témoin "sur la glace" de la fracture d'une importante section de la plate-forme de glace de Ward Hunt, qui a formé deux "îles flottantes" d'un total de 20 kilomètres carrés la semaine dernière. En tant que Jeunes Ambassadeurs de l'Arctique, ces enfants faisaient partie de l'expédition Pax Arctica 2008 en partenariat avec Green Cross International et Global Green USA.
« Nous étions sur l'île de Ward Hunt pour une mission d'exploration, en relation avec Dr. Derek Mueller, un chercheur en glaciologie de l'Université de Trent, Ontario. Nous avons vraiment eu de la chance d'arriver juste au moment où la glace dérivait » faisait remarquer Luc Hardy, co-leader de l'expédition.
qui va partager avec Dr. Mueller les vidéos, photos et coordonnées GPS des fissures observées par l'équipe Pax Arctica pendant l'expédition.
L'expédition Pax Arctica a exploré les fissures de Ward Hunt, mais a également visité d'autres sites Arctiques tels que : Iqaluit, Kimmirut, Resolute Bay, Somerset Island, Otto Fjord et Radstock Bay. Sa mission a consisté à interagir avec les cultures locales, avec des scientifiques réalisant des études sur le terrain et plus généralement à vivre l'Arctique en tant que témoin de leur génération.
Les enfants, âgés de 9 à 17 ans, représentant la France, l'Allemagne, l'Italie, le Kenya, les USA et le Nunavut (Canada), ont été sélectionnés pour servir en tant que Jeunes Ambassadeurs de l'Arctique et pour transmettre leur découvertes et observations à leurs communautés et aux générations futures. Leur expérience sera racontée dans un documentaire et un livre.
Pax Arctica est une mission sur plusieurs années, destinée à étudier et sensibiliser le public aux effets du changement climatique en Arctique.
Pax Arctica est une initiative en partenariat avec Green Cross France, Global Green USA (membres de Green Cross International, l'organisation environnementale fondée par Mikhaïl Gorbatchev) et Sagax Expéditions.
Cette initiative est sponsorisée en partie par HP, la marque de vêtements Napapijri et Groupe UFG.
After a few days of patiently waiting for planes to land in various locations on Ellesmere islands, here we are, back in New York (Luc) and Los Angeles (Sebastian).

In the next few days we will feed you with news, observations and comments. Lots of catch up to do!
Great summer to all the friends of the Arctic.
"In a way, the fissures on the ice shelf are the fault lines of global warming," added Copeland.
"We were on the island for hands-on facts gathering in connection with Dr. Derek Mueller, a polar scientist at Trent University in Peterborough, Ontario. We were incredibly fortunate to be there as the ice shelf was calving," said Luc Hardy, co-leader of the expedition, who is sharing with Dr. Mueller videos, photographs and GPS coordinates of ice conditions and new cracks. "This new development is another threat to the Ward Hunt ice shelf, the largest, oldest and thickest remaining ice shelf in the Arctic," added Hardy.
In addition to exploring ice cracks, the Pax Arctica team visited sites in Iqaluit, Kimmirut, Resolute Bay, Somerset Island, Otto Fjord and Radstock Bay. Their mission was to interact with local culture, scientists conducting field studies, and to experience the Arctic environment as the eyes of their generation. The children, ages 9 to 17 and representing France, Germany, Italy, Kenya, the US and Nunavut (Canada) were selected to serve as "The Young Ambassadors of the Arctic" to observe the impact of climate change on the Arctic and take the message back to their communities and future generations. Their experience will be assembled into a documentary and a book.
Pax Arctica is a multi-year mission to study and educate the public about the effects of climate change to the Arctic. Pax Arctica is a joint effort by Global Green USA, Green Cross France (members of Green Cross International, the environmental organization founded by Mikhail Gorbachev) and Sagax Expeditions.
This initiative was sponsored in part by HP, the clothing brand Napapijri and Groupe UFG.

On Tech Management
I've noticed a pattern both in the LFI-Software community and in my career overall: it's striking how many lessons I've learned from therapy that can be applied to engineering management.
What I often need from my manager is much closer to the skills of a social worker than those of a project technical lead.
I'm probably destined to be a manager someday (it was mentioned during my first 1:1 at my first full-time job) and I know I'm gonna mess up royally in some ways because it's hard. But for now, I see harm being done and I feel that a lot of it can be mitigated.
Engineering managers don't have management skills
Most of the problems we see with both project management and people management methodologies and processes are that they're cargo-cult applied without systems thinking. Not only are engineering managers not trained at all in the core skills of people management, but we devalue those skills as an industry. As a result, people management skills never get significantly invested in.
What I've seen is this: teams will drift into success by various measures. Good things happen and then management post-hoc applies cause to whatever random approach they tried. The root cause fallacy isn't limited to failures.
So the product got launched and the Jiras got closed and money got passed around and paychecks got deposited. People tell each other what great work they did, and some subset of them get promoted. Meanwhile, all the LOE estimates are wrong, we're querying bad data, tech debt charges more interest, everyone's putting out fires. And people wonder why we have a problem with burnout in the industry.
Upper management refuses to scale back scope because they "made promises" and they've never heard of killing your darlings.
"We need to maintain velocity," they say when engineers try to push back on product asks in order to clean up tech debt. Shortly after, they ask why it takes so long to implement a feature that "should be pretty simple."
Meanwhile, the people who care the most are the ones who burn out fastest.
Managers burning out
It hurts the managers as well. At two different jobs I was placed under a former technical individual contributor (IC)—one an analyst, one an SRE—who had just been promoted to their first management role. Both were tacitly expected to maintain their IC output while also taking on all the responsibilities of a manager.
A while back, I read some great advice for engineering managers:
5. Both code and people require the same thing to thrive: focused, sustained attention. No one does both well.
— Sarah Mei (@sarahmei) May 11, 2017
Additionally, Charity Majors has given advice along a similar vein:
Stop writing code and engineering in the critical path
What happens when you try to do both? One or more of these:
your engineering work suffers
your health suffers
your reports suffer
At my first tech job, the analyst-turned-manager didn't have the time or resources to help me or even realize what was happening as I dove headfirst into burnout. In top-secret government work, there's almost never a person with the technical expertise, the appropriate clearance, and the availability to hand work off to. If this manager didn't do her IC work, someone else would have to explain to a three-star Air Force general why it didn't get done.
At my second tech job, the SRE-turned-manager burned out within four months of his new role. His eagerness to build out the team with promising juniors was admirable, but ultimately unsustainable given the improvements he wanted to make and the never-ending backlog of work to do.
Being responsible about burnout
Generally, however, managers aren't expected to maintain their productivity doing engineering work. Practitioners at the sharp end are, even though they have less control over business and product decisions, and are subject to more scrutiny when something goes wrong. As Dekkar describes in Just Culture, technical practitioners are often held in a double bind, forced to choose between
spending additional time and resources to play it safe, or
cutting corners now because "velocity!"
I've experienced this firsthand, and many of my colleagues are experiencing it right now.
Burnout is no joke. I feel strongly about that. It's irresponsible for managers in the tech industry not to be well-versed in at least the symptoms of burnout.
In addition to being knowledgeable about burnout, it's the responsibility of any people manager to be well-versed in systems of oppression. The tech industry is a complex system involving humans, and those humans can't just leave their non-work struggles at home. Minoritized people experience more stress overall, so they're more at risk of burnout. Oppression can't be handled as a separate issue' it's interwoven into every part of the existing system.
Social science? lol
It's been very frustrating to encounter tech workers throughout my career who throw up their hands because something can't be made into a simple binary metric or linear scale. In basically every other field, practitioners and decision-makers have no choice but to navigate complexity and nuance.
Those same tech workers will then roll their eyes and scoff at the idea of studying or even discussing anything under the umbrella of social science. Here's my take: Social science is the only thing that can save tech from itself. Let's learn from it.
As an example, let's think about the question that sparked the Slack rant that inspired this post:
How do you measure outcomes as a manager when everything you're doing is fuzzy?
One answer? Look to other professions that have fuzzy nonlinear outcomes to measure, like healthcare (especially mental health), social work, community organizing, teaching. How does a psychiatrist determine that a patient should change medication? How does a teacher help a student who's struggling?
There's no 1:1 perfect solution, but we can take lessons from other kinds of work and apply it to our own.
Isn't that what we already do with the solutions we find on StackOverflow? It's rare that it makes sense to copy the top answer verbatim into your codebase. Instead, I expect you do something like this:
compare several approaches, reading comments to gain context and determine how well a given StackOverflow answer's solution works for your needs
make sure you understand the logic behind the solution you're trying
copy some or all of the code from the solution you're trying, editing parameters and cleaning up formatting to interface with your existing code
test and iterate, or start back at an earlier step with a different StackOverflow answer
In order to keep what works and throw away what doesn't, you need to actually engage with the content you're learning from.
As always with LFI discussions, there's no instant fix. But with enough of us reading and discussing and learning and applying lessons from high-reliability systems, safety-critical industries, software engineering teams, and even social science(!), we can make a difference.

South-east Asia finance heads the most bullish in region about business outlook
Yasmine Yahya
https://str.sg/wNFY
Never mind the slowdown in China or the patchy recovery in the United States - chief financial officers in the Southeast Asia region are confident that it will be full steam ahead for their companies this year.
A survey of 604 chief financial officers (CFOs) and senior finance executives across Asia Pacific by Bank of America Merrill Lynch found that 71 per cent of all respondents expect their firms' revenues to be higher this year than last year.
A slightly lower number - 62 per cent - expect profits to be higher year-on-year, as higher commodity costs bite into their margins.
Among the markets included in the survey, respondents from Southeast Asia were the most bullish.
In Indonesia, for example, 90 per cent of the CFOs polled said they expected higher revenues this year, and 83 per cent said they expected higher profits.
In Thailand, 86 per cent forecast higher revenues and 69 per cent predicted higher profits.
The Philippines was also especially optimistic, with 81 per cent of the respondents expecting increased revenues and 78 per cent expecting fatter profits.
"Resilient domestic demand in Southeast Asia is key to explaining the optimism we are seeing," said BofAML's head of treasury sales for Asia Pacific, Mr Percy Batliwalla.
"In general, countries in Asia Pacific are experiencing a slowdown in exports, while countries in Southeast Asia are still enjoying strong economic growth relative to the rest of the world, fuelled in part by domestic consumer spending."
Singapore's numbers were closer to the overall figures, as 71 per cent of the CFOs surveyed here expected higher revenues and 65 per cent expected higher profits.
The least bullish markets were Taiwan, Japan and South Korea.

Which is more important? How it looks or where a stadium is?
By Tom Dart
Strong chance he'd arch his eyebrows at the sight of folk in the parking lots grilling meat and sinking beers at the back of their pick-up trucks. But if LS Lowry were still alive, still painting, still a fan, he'd find going to the match a more familiar experience in Houston than Bolton.
It's the location of Houston Dynamo's new stadium. In the industrial East End, just a couple of blocks from the core of downtown, between an elevated freeway and railroad tracks, amid stiff grids of streets named for Texas heroes.
There is nascent gentrification. Mostly there is urban density and decay, warehouses and factories that don't let on whether they've been shut for years or are in business right now. Poor people. Pubs. A music venue. A scene that's a bit shabby, a bit shambolic, but organic and distinctive.
And from all directions, people walking to the match: noise, colour, anticipation, the kinship of a crowd of strangers. Buying beers from stalls, listening to bands and drinking in the street.
There are no cars in "Going to the Match", the Lancastrian artist's 1953 portrait of Bolton Wanderers' former home, Burnden Park. Everyone is walking. In the painting, as in Houston, people and buildings dominate the working-class landscape immediately surrounding the stadium.
Understand that this is not normal in Houston, this characterful and compact mass of pedestrians filling old city streets. Houston is a hymn to convenience and consumption, money and motor vehicles, the epic scale of Texas, the suburban American dream and the conviction that if plenty should sometimes tip over into excess, well, so what? That's our choice and our birthright.
We're not in 1950s England. It's sunny and sweaty-humid almost all season long. Most people drive to Dynamo games in big cars. The arena's naming rights were bought by a Spanish bank, its footprint and adjacent new apartments are as fresh, slick and precisely landscaped as the hair of a teen pop idol. The place has a giant video screen, an adidas store and lots of corporate seats.
At BBVA Compass Stadium it's the skyscraping headquarters of multinational energy companies you can see in the distance, not smoke stacks and chimneys. The colour scheme is so orange that doctors could prescribe visits to cure patients deficient in vitamin C.
Yet the experience feels old-European as well as modern-Texan. Thanks to its location this new-born stadium already has life and soul to add to its architectural elegance and flair. Even a short saunter from wherever you've parked will engage you visually, viscerally, with your surroundings. It will provoke reactions.
The site amply justifies the club's decision not to break ground in the suburbs amid one of the myriad outlet malls or generic housing estates, glossy and manicured as a model's fingernails. The Dynamo now feel like an immutable and storied thread of the city's fabric, yet they moved to Houston from San Jose in 2006.
"We were adamant about being downtown. We had opportunities to get [the stadium] built in the suburbs, probably via public money and it would probably have happened sooner, but we felt very strongly that we had to be a downtown location so we held out for that, and it's worked out perfectly," Chris Canetti, the Dynamo president of business operations, told me in May. "It's made us very relevant, it's made us very cool."
In time, the stadium will blend into its surroundings, encouraging attention, investment and regeneration, a rebirth of the East End. And whether that makes the rich richer or is truly a boon for everyone — well, that's up to the good people of Houston. But today, the team have brought hope and pride and publicity, and that seems like more than enough.
Houston's rivals, FC Dallas, do not play in Dallas. They are based in the nearby commuter city of Frisco. They are 28 miles north of downtown, just off a highway, the stadium encircled by car parks, arterial roads and strip malls.
Bolton do not play in Bolton. In 1997 they moved from Burnden Park — a mile from the town centre, their home for more than a hundred years — to the Reebok Stadium in Horwich, five miles west. By a motorway, surrounded by car parks and shopping centres filled with the usual chain stores. It's the showpiece of a sports and leisure complex - misleading name, that, because life for the customer is simple.
The Reebok Stadium is really very good. It's just that it was built smack in the middle of a place called Anywhere. It is a homage to American car-friendly consumerism, Burnden Park to retail park. On any given Saturday you might be going to the match, or the mall, or the cinema, or the fast-food outlets. Or all of the above. Attending the football is one of a range of competing and comparable on-site entertainment options. Going to the match is like going shopping; what was once a ritualistic act of faith is now a conscious capitalist choice.
This way of life has some logic in the United States, where there is vast space and sports teams are bottom-line focused franchises that can be dismantled like flat-pack furniture and rebuilt thousands of miles away, leaving only hollow memories of their once-solid presence, like the impression of chair legs on a carpet.
It generally ensures high standards and competitiveness. It's discordant with the back-story of English football, where clubs sprang naturally from local communities long ago and were not just in their towns, but of them. These days, though, the English professional game is becoming a suburban pursuit, leagues of Reeboks.
Some 25 of the 92 clubs presently in England's top four divisions play in stadiums built since 1996, the first year of Major League Soccer. In all but five cases, the club has moved farther away from its town's centre.
There are good reasons for this, such as cost, logistics, the difficulty of finding suitable central land and the challenges of renovating existing grounds. Tottenham Hotspur were recently tempted to relocate to Enfield, near the M25, given the hassle of rebuilding White Hart Lane. Whatever the causes, it's a trend that changes a matchday's tone.
Coming in, you're not elbow-to-elbow with other fans, overhearing or engaging with them, smelling their food and the beer on their breath; you're isolated and sedate in a personal steel-and-glass bubble, sitting in traffic, listening to radio phone-ins in which supporters from across the nation bore you with the story of their day. You arrive and leave vacuum-packed.
The atmosphere is different, less intense, perhaps because opposing fans seem more like shoppers than invaders who've breached the city walls. And they've got their own car park, anyway. Might not even see them.
The club isn't your neighbour, as it would be if you lived around the corner. No matter how much it may matter to its fans, it's hard to see how a football team can be at the heart of its community if its premises are on the outskirts. Or how it can reflect much beyond the neon glare of the adjacent Burger King.
Colchester United, Northampton Town, Stoke City, Swansea City: outsiders have to take a detour to visit the town. If you're looking for the stadium and come across something interesting, you've got lost.
It seems as if no club in England these days can build a stadium without the muscle of a major supermarket chain who use the emotional clout of football as a Trojan horse to win planning permission and part-fund the project. So it's not a shock that many new grounds are functional boxes that don't look much different from supermarkets.
With little incentive to be original they are often as bland as their surroundings. And what's chiefly being improved and regenerated: wasteland or the bank balances of landowners and property developers?
New, clean, standardised and sterilised, these arenas suit football's growing sense of itself as a family entertainment product. This seems to owe much to the high production values of the American major leagues, where sport is a spectacle, slickly marketed and brand aware, doing as much as it can to provide reliable fun around the inherently variable quality of the actual matches.
But England's present and future is already America's past. While England is copying the suburban American sporting model, city-centre venues are experiencing a renaissance in the US: attractive and highly-visible redevelopment catalysts that ensure downtowns remain a hub of activity after office hours.
In Major League Baseball, the opening of Oriole Park at Camden Yards in Baltimore in 1992 presaged the construction of many other charming, downtown, "retro" ballparks — there is one near the Dynamo's stadium — bringing to a close the "cookie-cutter" era of near-identical out-of-town, concrete, multi-purpose venues.
In MLS, which began by building or borrowing cheap out-of-town arenas, three downtown venues have opened since last year. Six of 18 stadiums are central. Despite the presence of the New York Red Bulls just across the water in New Jersey, MLS is obsessively pursuing the dream of a club in the most famous urban area on the planet, New York City. Imagine the attention, the energy, the credibility. All being enjoyed by the Nets basketball team, which has moved to hip Brooklyn from boring Newark.
England's new palaces primarily cater not to the traditions, history and geography of their clubs but to the affluence and mobility of the modern consumer. That physical location is now a matter of pragmatism not roots, choice not heritage, tallies with the philosophical shift prompted by the game's on-going globalisation.
Attending matches is no longer a prerequisite for serious fandom. Distant supporters identify with players, managers and victories, not buildings they will never visit.
What difference does a few miles make in a stadium's location in an era when Manchester United might have more fans in Shanghai than Salford and a foreign supporter who logs on religiously to arsenal.com can consider himself as much a loyalist as a season-ticket holder? In which Fifa have polished and regulated their World Cup product so much and so well that the tournament is essentially portable and almost flavourless for spectators, as if each stadium was encased by a giant Truman Show-style dome and flown to the host country every four years?
In this context, a stadium's immediate surroundings are no longer significant. It's the inside that counts. Not because of ticket income, now dwarfed in the Barclays Premier League by television money. But it's still important that the stands are full and smart and orderly, so that the TV pictures look good. A stadium is no longer a traditional gathering place, a locus of civic pride and identity. It's a film set.
Fans are wallpaper, unlike in MLS, where broadcasting rights are paltry and wooing local people is critical to a team's prosperity. An urban venue such as Houston's is sound business sense and a symbolic act: football right in the middle of town, and for everyone, not only the SUV-driving suburban families of stereotype. The location and architecture engages where other arenas detach and prove that with effort and originality it's still possible to build an iconic football ground.
In Lowry's work, Burnden Park gives downtrodden factory workers a feeling of purpose, belonging and escape. What are most modern stadiums giving the community, other than excellent views of the action, clean toilets and a wide choice of food?
In England the smaller clubs trade quirks for functionality and lose part of what makes them distinctive. The top clubs increasingly see themselves as citizens of the world, their stadiums as the headquarters of global companies with multi-national workforces.
The balance between the local and international, the new and the old, the unique and the generic, is tense and strange. It's the recipe for an identity crisis, this strategy of dislocation, dislocation, dislocation.

Dockside Destinations: Péniches in Paris
12 August 2021 by Hazel Smith 1596
Paris, a river runs through it… and a canal system. A few lucky sailors have precious mooring spaces in Paris, either along the Seine or the Bassin de la Villette. Many barges, aka péniches, are party boats, with top-deck revelers and a thumping bassline. But some of the barges tied to the capstans on the quays are multicultural centers, dance schools, bookstores, cinemas, floating food markets and child-centric destinations. Here are a few favorites. L'Eau et les Rêves is a floating bookstore/café whose name in English means "water and dreams" – so-called from a quote by philosopher Gaston Bachelard. Moored in the Canal de l'Ourcq, l'Eau et les Rêves has an inevitable nautical theme, replete with portholes, mermaids and old maps. This barge-bouquiniste has wooden stalls on the upper deck for borrowing or buying second-hand books. Bigger on the inside, this péniche boasts spaces for a children, theater workshops, lectures and book signings. While l'Eau et les Rêves is a treasure trove of volumes on seafaring and maritime escapades, it's still a mainstream bookshop with new titles. This French librarie will order English language books for you. Their café offers snacks, juices, wine and cocktails. 9 Quai de l'Oise, 19th https://www.facebook.com/penichelibrairie https://www.pénichelibrairie.com/ Fluctuart is a floating urban art center located at the foot of the Pont des Invalides. Along with temporary exhibits, Fluctuart features works by internationally renowned street and graffiti artists like Banksy, Keith Haring, Invader, VHILS, Shepard Fairey and JR. Fluctuart capsizes the idea of a traditional museum by creating an opportunity to see urban art in a Seine-side setting. This barge of 1000 m² consists of three gallery spaces connected from water to rooftop by a series of atrium-like gangways which create an intimate interface between the Seine and gallery-goers. Fluctuart is free and open from noon to midnight. The space can be toured with one of Fluctuart's passionate guides. DJ sets in the evening are a unique way to listen to music, enjoy a cocktail and take in some incredible art and views of the Seine. They offer children's workshops Sundays at 2 pm. The small menu at Fluctufood is a distillation of Paris fare. Books and prints specializing in urban culture are available at Fluctuart bookshop. Fluctuart is open every day in the summer and Wednesday to Sunday starting November.

Antipode is a word most often used for Australia and "lands down under," but the dictionary reveals it means "something which is the direct opposite of something else." And that's what the Antipode is. This imposing hulk of a barge was built in the midst of World War II and transported all manner of freight on the canals of Europe. Now it's a laid-back, kid-friendly cultural space, appealing to the eclectic, the hipster, and those trying their best to rage against gentrification.

For children there are live shows with creations by the Abricadabra theater company with clowning, mimes, songs, acrobatics and puppetry which are suitable for toddlers and up.
There are plays, sketches and cabaret concerts for adults in the evenings. In this friendly and welcoming spot, DJs spin worldbeat-style hip hop. Evenings of progressive rock and folk are available for a very meager cover charge. Some chansons-concerts and Sunday flamenco events cost a bit more.
The Café Antipode, a bar and restaurant, offers a la carte, fair trade and artisanal foods and a well-supplied bar. You can have a meal on board or just have a casual drink on the terraces. Antipode is anchored at 55 Quai de la Seine, in the 19th arrondissement.

Péniche Anako advertises itself as a cultural center inviting one to meet other peoples and cultures along life's unmarked path. World music jams and gems of old cinema are offered. The Péniche Anako has a long history with Armenian Red Cross Relief Committee who symbolically make the barge available to promote their cause of multiculturalism. Like the Antipode the vibe is very casual. They also have a menu of the day.

Marché sur l'Eau (C) Paris Tourist Office/ S. Gouraud
Since 2012, the Marché sur l'Eau Association has offered city dwellers the opportunity to buy quality fruits, vegetables and other foodstuffs grown in Île de France, less than 100 km from Paris. Docking on Tuesdays and Saturdays, behind La Rotonde in the Bassin de la Villette, the Marché sur l'Eau is a favorite of restaurateurs lading their eco-conscious pantries, yet anyone can browse on board- or on quayside – or pre-order baskets for weekly delivery. Locavores get to experience fruits and vegetables picked when ripe and in season. Preserves, honey, and craft beers are also offered on market days. Even their boat Les Deux Brigands is 100% sustainably fueled.

Named in honor of the French-American sculptor, the Jardin de l'Archipel des Berges de Seine – Niki de Saint-Phalle are five unique gardens growing on a series of custom built metal barges. Permanently moored, these small island parks totaling 1800m² are strung together yet try to remain discrete. Evoking the microclimates found along the Seine, the barges consist of a bird island with flowering shrubs and berried branches in which birds can make their nests, the prairie island with field flowers and tall grasses, the central island with child-friendly rope nets on which to climb and an orchard island. In the bow of this archipelago of islands is the misty l'île aux brumes where mechanical foggers replicate the sometimes mysterious quality of the banks of the Seine. It's a pedestrian oasis of biodiversity in the middle of Paris. Located at the Port Gros Caillou, about 100 meters from Pont d'Alma in the 7th, it's open all year round but closed during rough and windy weather.

The first barge of its kind, La Péniche Cinéma is designed as a mini-cinema screening short films and documentaries. Although many offerings are award winners, the films are mostly unknown to the general public. The programming is eclectic, ambitious, and professionally run. In addition, La Péniche Cinema offers mini festivals and events centered on filmmakers and producers. The association wants to serve as a springboard for the creators of tomorrow and they offer intensive filmmaking courses for children. The restaurant, La Terrasse De Frankie, located on the bridge, features homemade, seasonal cuisine and craft beers for moviegoers who want a post-movie snack.

On the bill at La Péniche Demoiselle, situated at the north end of the Bassin de la Villette, are artists from divergent musical universes: pop, world music, folk, jazz, chanson, reggae and klezmer. The barge contains a lively and effervescent music hall but it's more than just a concert venue. La Péniche Demoiselle is part of a larger project created on the theme of travel and dance.
Since 2008, La Péniche Demoiselle has been committed to educating people on the intricacies of world dance, offering balls, concerts, exhibitions, courses and classes. They aim for you to learn a few dance steps on their 120 m² parquet floor. La Péniche Demoiselle's instructional workshops feature, to name a few, bal musette, swing, tango and rhumba. There are workshops for children too, as well as yoga lessons for adults. Self-funded, volunteers and employees work together to implement socio-cultural projects. There is the ubiquitous bar onboard serving sweets and savories.

The Péniche La Pop is an artistic incubator for live music and sound. Since 2016 it's been a place of residence, research, and experimentation for upcoming music makers. La Pop's mission is to support emerging artists who, through the creative projects they design in the hold of the barge, question the different roles that music and sounds play in society. While this all sounds very esoteric, La Pop welcomes and supports about 50 artistic teams each year resulting in a calendar full of presentations. These shows are invitations to discover different interpretations of sound and musical objects. La Pop is a cultural barge that is place of creation and performance and is found at 61 quai de la Seine in the 19th.
