Characterized by vast amounts of carbon stored in permafrost, Arctic tundra is rapidly evolving as permafrost degrades in response to a changing climate. The mechanisms responsible for this system-wide reorganization have been unpredictable and difficult to isolate because they are initiated at very fine spatial scales, and because of the large number of interactions among the individual system components. To address this challenge, the Terrestrial Ecosystem Science program within the Department of Energy's Office of Biological and Environmental Research is supporting a next-generation ecosystem experiments (NGEE) project in the Arctic.
Geomorphological features—including thaw lakes, drained thaw lake basins, and ice-rich polygonal ground—provide the organizing framework for integrating process studies and observations from the pore or core scale (micron to tens of centimeters) to plot (meters to tens of meters) and landscape (kilometers) scales. Within these discrete geomorphological units, mechanistic studies in the field and laboratory are targeting four critical and interrelated components—water, nitrogen, carbon, and energy dynamics—that determine whether the Arctic is, or in the future will become, a negative or positive feedback to anthropogenically forced climate change. Multiscale research activities organized around these components include hydrology and geomorphology, vegetation dynamics, biogeochemistry, and energy transfer processes.
This comprehensive suite of NGEE–Arctic process studies and observations is being strongly linked to model development and application requirements for improving process representation, initializing multiscale model domains, calibrating models, and evaluating model predictions. The overall objective is general knowledge and understanding through direct observation and fine-grained simulation of Arctic tundra ecosystems and the mechanisms that regulate their form and function. Specifically, this generalization will provide improved representation of Arctic tundra states and dynamics in the land model component of a coupled Earth system model.


What's CIL and How Much will I be Charged?
The Community Infrastructure Levy – or CIL for short – is defined as a developer contribution. It's essentially a fee payable by property developers to the local community to provide for additional infrastructure required in the wake of a new development.
The intention of a developer contribution is to help alleviate any burden that new developments place on the immediate community and/ or improve facilities in the locale.
Introduced in April 2010, CIL works alongside other developer contributions, namely the Section 106 agreements for developments in England and Wales and the Section 278 Highways Agreements. Each of these three developer contributions provides infrastructure to the community in different ways.
What is the Objective of CIL?
CIL is designed to raise funds for local infrastructure through charging developers a fixed rate per square metre. This fee is predominantly for building schemes where net additional floor space is over 100 square metres, or where a new dwelling is built. The same rules apply to commercial property developers as they do to private homeowners too.
CIL only applies to buildings that people 'normally go into'; properties such as warehouses and buildings housing mechanical or energy plant are not liable for the charge.
How does the CIL differ from Section 106?
Both the Community Infrastructure Levy and Section 106 agreements are available to local authorities throughout England and Wales.
Section 106 contributions are decided after often lengthy negotiations between the developer and the relevant local planning authority. In contrast, once a charging authority has set its CIL, the CIL tariff chargeable to a new development is non-negotiable, according to a set tariff. This is designed to reduce delays that negotiation can create and make the levy transparent for all concerned.
Section 106 was created to push through planning proposals that might not otherwise have been deemed acceptable in planning terms and is site-specific. It's also a vehicle used to create affordable housing in the area.
CIL funds are not able to be used for affordable housing. The CIL revenue is intended for local infrastructure within the community and is not site-specific.
How much is the CIL tariff?
This depends on the charging authority concerned. In London, the charging authority will be a district or metropolitan district council, a London Borough council, The City of London, or The Mayor of London, who has set his own CIL.
In areas where there's the potential for massive developer investment, such as riverside property in Nine Elms, the tariff per square metre of residential floor space can be eye watering. Wandsworth has set this at £575.00, in addition to which the Mayoral CIL of £50 per square metre for a Zone 1 development will be charged. Elsewhere in the Borough, the residential tariff is £250.00 per square metre plus the Mayoral CIL.
Given the multi-billion pound developments currently underway in Nine Elms, the CIL revenue from this one pocket of prime Wandsworth property is considerable.
Won't these high CIL tariffs make some schemes unviable?
Not necessarily for large, high-value schemes that have projected a high revenue per square metre. Where CIL tariffs threaten to kill a project is at the lower-to-middle end of the spectrum. Smaller developments in areas where the tariff has been set at a high rate would have to be sure of a minimum sales revenue in order to make their scheme viable. If the predicted profit margin is already modest there will be a lot less wriggle room for the developer once the CIL cost has been considered. This may convince the developer that it's not worth proceeding.
In many of these smaller developments, or self-build projects, the scheme may be rendered unviable by the CIL liability. A new home for the self-builder's own use would be liable, as would a basement addition or extension to an existing dwelling if it surpassed the 100 square metre threshold for the creation of additional space.
Therein lies the downside of CIL as a set, non-negotiable tariff which may affect the decision to proceed with certain developments, and where Section 106 has seen its success – in allowing for negotiation.
How is the CIL set?
Because the CIL charge is based on a set tariff, charging authorities must adhere to strict protocols in order to set and justify their levy. This requires the submission of a current development plan along with appropriate, available evidence of financial viability and funding gaps. A funding gap occurs where necessary infrastructure costs will not be met in full by other developer contributions, such as S106 agreements. All evidence is subject to independent examination to ensure it is accurate.
For more information on how the CIL works in your area, we suggest a visit to your local authority website. There you will find links to national Government websites along with what's being planned through CIL for your community.

Q: Using Identity with multiple DbContext I want to used Identity Framework which is optional when creating a net Core web project. And use another database.
But I get an error:

The DbContextOptions passed to the ApplicationDbContext constructor
must be a DbContextOptions. When registering
multiple DbContext types, ensure that the constructor for each context
type has a DbContextOptions parameter rather than a
non-generic DbContextOptions parameter.

Here is my configuration:

builder.Services.AddDbContext<ApplicationDbContext>(options =>
    options. UseSqlServer(connectionString));
builder.Services.AddDatabaseDeveloperPageExceptionFilter();

Welcome to the happiness quotient on Thom Pollard. I love music. I love to play music. I love to listen to music. It soothes my soul. A song or album can fit literally any mood. It can make me laugh, make me cry, think, see things from a different light. Music literally helps transform the soul. One of the inspirations for this very podcast coming into being was an interview I heard with Neil Young, and he talked about following the path that he knew he was destined for it must have resonated with me because it kind of felt like me, except I wasn't trying to become a professional musician. Neil talked about following his musical course. And when In so doing, one will experience collateral damage along the way. But also in doing it one will create many more beautiful things that they otherwise would never have been able to create. So in essence, we pay a price for following our heart and passion. But in so doing, we open the portal to greater Self Realization, limitless creativity, and an understanding that there is beauty in all of the vicissitudes of life, the good, the bad, the tragic, and the mysterious. Consider this episode and inspiration starter kit. We're going to sample short clips from a handful of brilliantly talented and creative musicians who have been guests on this podcast, people who have graced the world with the beauty of their expression, and will play a cut of their music after each short clip.

DANIEL DONATO MUSIC
Daniel Donato. The cosmic cowboy was a guest in November 2020, Episode Number 61. Absolutely, without a doubt one of the most empowering positive individuals I've had the pleasure of knowing. Daniel talked about two kinds of regret in life and his recipe for success. The three P's He is also a devotee of the Grateful Dead and plays a soulful fire on the mountain. Let's say that there's somebody listening to this episode, and they're inspired and but they're not really living their true passion in life. And what would you say to that man or woman or kid, girl or boy who's like, I want to be this but my mom and dad won't let me or I'm too damn afraid to not be able to pay my mortgage next moniel niel DAYeah,
Daniel Donato: 4:04
I've experienced the one I've experienced the former where other people tell me I can't do things. And I always say, um, you got to trust yourself first, because it's life as a single player game. And if you have the idea to do something, then it makes sense for you to do it. There's two kinds of of regrets in life fear of action, and then fear of inaction. In most fears. Most regrets are rendered under the fear of inaction statistically, they interview you know, a lot of people on their deathbeds of varying cultures of varying ages, people that are my age when they die by age 25, and they have fear of inactions already. So I think fear of inaction is something that's why Jeff Bezos started Amazon. So it's like, you gotta you got to take action. I think that's the younger thing to answer your first one about somebody who's younger that is afraid to do something. Um, be more afraid of not doing something than a den be being afraid of doing something and failing. And I think the second one which I haven't yet crossed that bridge in life, yet it age wise, responsibility wise, but I see my father crossing it every day which is do your work and work hard, but then take time to play in whatever way that manifests in your life. That's awesome. And just staying true to that. I think that's the biggest thing that there's something I say to myself every day which is patience, persistence and positivity. I think um, I've spoken to a lot of people on my podcast I've just met a lot of people through playing music from just so many different cultures in different businesses that that have found success and those really seem to be universally obligatory rules that though I think the world rewards if you operate within Tom it's patience persistence, positivity. I think those really are the signs of a winner

Oliver Woods wood of the wood brothers exemplifies the American songwriter one of the most prolific and talented singer songwriters today, all of her joined us in September of 2020 Episode Number 53 talked about the creative process and songwriting how it happens to you only when you don't try to force it to happen. COVID gave him time to meditate, spend more time with his family instead of traveling the world on tour, and importantly, create write new songs. He's got a new album coming out in May and I'll share that with you when that time comes. And on this episode he shared with us tunes that he just released soul of this town and the battle is over.
Oliver Wood: 15:00
MUSIC i've been k ocked down you and me would just bre i'm so interested in songwriting and musicians and i read lots of biographies and i read interviews with songwriters and just how do they know what's going on any creative person know how do they process stuff and it seems such a common answer is that they there's a lot of it that's completely unknown completely beyond their control you know so when so and i love hearing stories from like a paul simon or randy newman or certain people can really articulate what it's like jeff tweedy has a new book that came out last year that even for non music people i recommend it's so fascinating so well articulated just how that creative process works but what i love the most is the idea that number one you're you're not in control you're in control of the craft but the inspiration part is not something you're in control of so so the idea then is that you you are are to discover things you're just discovering the song you're like a kid like you're discovering it you're searching it you're following it you're not pushing it you're not in control you're not you know you just the whole idea of not trying just doing you know and just seeing where you end up and the surprise of it all you know you don't know how this is gonna turn out foundations of meditating and of just mindfulness is that is that things are always changing you know you're not gonna you're not in control things are always changing the only thing you're in control of is knowing that and accepting that and so anyway somehow the creative idea of creative mindfulness is what i'm really into right now and i think that's what happens when when people collaborate you're just making a new recipe you know and that's what's that's what's cool about the wood brothers is just experimenting and i think we're all of the same mind like okay that sounds like the that's been done let's not let's not do that we we make choices based on that we've already done that let's try something different or that's the cool thing that only we do let's do that again yeah it's just fun should be a fun discovery childlike process and that's what it feels like MUSIC BATTLE IS OVER sing the song way worth written to beat the drum you're gonna win the battle is over to work everybody play remember when you jumped to the eight o'clock Money be a millionaire thoughts can kill there be no buddy he. Yeah, so many think and even tell him where to solve the truth keeps us square
harmonica player Mickey Rafael, my guest in May 2020 on episode 39 has been Willie Nelson's harmonica player since 1973. That is a lot of Willie Nelson shows. Imagine that. And when they first met, Mickey wasn't really even into country music. The Tale of how he met Willie is such a classic story of how preparation and opportunity and pure chance come crashing melodically and beautifully together. I never grow tired of hearing
Mickey Raphael: 21:43
I get a call one day from Darrell royal, who's the coach of the University of Texas football team. The stadium in Austin is named after him. And he's a patron of the arts and a serious music fan and supporter. And he called up, left me a message to my folks house in Dallas and said, Hey, we're in town for a ballgame. I think it was Texas, Arkansas, and we're gonna have a little picking session after the after the ballgame. Why don't you come to my hotel and bring your harmonica as a piece of my friends. So I went and I knew nothing about football either or country music but when I think but I really pride who I had met because he was a customer of my dad's furniture, furniture business. But you know what, they pass a guitar around and Willie was singing. I finally had time slips away and nightlife and I'd recognize those songs I kind of do that stuff. And I just kind of doodled around on the harmonica, struggling to play with him. And he's afterwards he says, Hey, you can see over here we're playing anywhere it comes in. And a few weeks later, they were playing at a junior high basketball you know, auditorium, basketball court, whatever. The gym at a junior high south of Dallas, loxahatchee 2030 miles south of Dallas, and volunteer benefits for volunteer fire department. So I went down there and sat in with the band and it was totally lost. And I think we played for our line four or five times, and I just because it's a great song to dance to, and people would come up and request songs. And we'd play these two step songs, you know, and it was like being in a, you know, high school combo. Yeah. And then it was fun. And afterwards, we went to a truck stop, which is what you do, and one in the morning breakfast. And I was getting ready to leave. And I thought well, I'm gonna have one more cup of coffee. And while I stayed and did that, Willie says, Hey, we're going to New York and a couple of weeks. Why don't you go with us, going up there to play Max's Kansas City, which was kind of a part of the beginning punch tribes of New York, but they were bringing in country acts like Waylon and Willie. While you can still see Jim Carroll and the New York Dolls. Wow. So before that was like a month or so away, and I would go out on weekends and find out where Willie was playing and drive my car again to some of these little bars and blogs and marketplaces that were calling because there were some, you know, lots of fights and sitting with them just to kind of learn the repertoire. I remember the story goes that Willie asked Paul, what are we paying Mickey and Paul, our drummer and bandleader who just recently passed. said, well, we're not paying him anything. He just come in to sit in and when he goes well double his salary. So I kind of became a member of the band. I mean, I never officially got hired, but I was never asked to leave Is that still work and that was Yeah, that was kind of we were already kind of alarmed by that.
The Reverend Freak hild had just released his lbum Bodie sought for blues a lessing album that includes a ouple Grateful Dead covers from arch 2020, Episode Number 32. he Reverend had been working lso on his master's in divinity rom the Naropa Institute in oulder, Colorado, and he talked bout mindfulness in the piritual life.
Reverend Freakchild: 26:57
You feel like there's nothing I can do. And you know, this new album's called the bodhisatta blues and jack kornfield. For people that don't know, he runs this thing called spirit rock. And he was talking about being a body soft, of course, we, we thank the first responders and all the medical people. And we also think that people that are staying home and not getting other people sick or not spreading this around, and though maybe some people think we're overreacting, but we also think people that are taking care of themselves. Like, if I were to be here, just like you're saying that I choose to take care of myself, I choose to be on the show with you talking positively. How can we make this thing make some lemonade out of these lemons, we got you know, and, and, you know, take care of myself prayer meditation, you know, eating well, you know, if I can take care of myself, when something, you know, happens in my life, I can better handle it or make not make it worse, at least you know, so that can be a police officer as well. We're just taking care of ourselves. You know, there's a part in the Buddhist scriptures where, you know, I don't know how much people know about you know, but uh, he had this a cousin who was his attendant called a Nanda. And he walked around with him and listened to all of his teachings. And then afterwards, they wrote them all down, according to what Nanda said, and so Nanda says, one time, the Buddha says, You know, I think that this, you know, talking with people like the conversation we're having, you know, conversing with friends and colleagues is half of this spiritual life. And he's just another is always the straight man. It's a Buddha, he is no one on the Buddha says, conversation like, this is all of the spiritual life, you know, and so that's sort of lead in to be doing interviews in light of sort of my spiritual journey, you know, and, and it is, I think, it's an amazing thing when, you know, like, the two of us and if we have other people listening to this is great, you know, if somebody listens to this, and this is a benefit to them, that'll be wonderful.

Recently in Episode Number 72, the troubadour himself, Seth Walker, who spoke to me about his book, your van is on fire. The miscellaneous meanderings of a musician speaks passionately, without conceit about the muse. It's important in these often confusing times. This very possibly is my favorite interview yet. As Seth said recently about our chat, we went somewhere.
Yo, boy. He says, Mom, one. I'll be alright. with just the sound you're trying to get
to, you put the thinking in it, and it screws the whole thing up. It's like it
goes. Yeah, yeah, it's

And so there you are in a state of wanting to be enlightened. It's just it.
There you go. It don't work. It don't work that way. But it's so funny, man. Really just surrender to it.

It's not the way creativity works.
That man that is just so right on what the Muse and so what is the Muse? I know this, this is like, sometimes there are no words for it, but what is the Muse? What is your Muse and, man What?
Well, it's definitely something that I it's, it's, it's something that I don't own. It's not mine. It's really, you know, just trying to be a conduit for it, to to let to be open enough to let it come through. And, you know, and as you as you as you grow and as you try and fail and try and you know that that Muse changes, some for sure, just like obviously with the book I I needed. I've been playing music My whole life and all sudden the world's stopped and I'm staring out the window, asking some serious questions.

In this one day workshop, you can choose to make either a sterling silver necklace pendant (the sterling silver and cable necklace are included) or a pair of sterling silver earrings. After deciding on the shape of your pendant or earrings, you will learn how to make the mould (tooling) that is then used to create the pressed shape. This mould can be used to make more pendants or earrings when you get home.
We then attach our silver to the mould and press it using a flypress. The press creates a depression in the silver in the shape of the mould we have created. We then use this pressed silver shape to create our unique pendant or pair of earrings. The piece is then cleaned up and the surface is either brushed or polished.
This workshop includes a gourmet lunch and morning/afternoon tea.

Q: ZFS pool created with ZFS on Linux, usable by SmartOS? I have a Linux server running libvirt + KVM which I am thinking of migrating to SmartOS. The server has a ZFS pool created with ZFS on Linux, where the KVM guests are stored (as ZVOLs). My question is, can this pool be usable by SmartOS?

A: Yes.
ZFS zpools are pretty portable... In your case, you'll want to make sure that the ZFS version on the destination system is greater-than or equal to the version of the system you're migrating from.
Of course, we're missing that information from your question...
You'll want to run zpool upgrade -v to obtain your version information.
See Oracle's documentation and the ZFS version Wikipedia page.
These days, SmartOS is at version 28 with feature flags.
Also see: Can I trust that ZFS is consistent between Linux and FreeBSD?

Our political odds gurus have seen an increase in bets being placed on key marginal seats over recent days.
With the Conservative Party remaining short-priced favourites to win an overall majority in this year's General Election there are a number of interesting battlegrounds where opportunities are being seized upon by savvy punters.
At the moment our official projection for the total number of seats won still gives the Conservatives a healthy majority over Labour.

Erik Bergvall, född 7 april 1880 i Västerfärnebo, Västmanland, död 4 februari 1950 i Bromma, var en svensk vattenpolospelare, idrottsledare och journalist. Han var bror till skådespelarna Sven Bergvall och Harry Bergvall.

Bergvall blev svenska mästare i vattenpolo med Stockholms Kappsimningsklubb 1906 och 1909. Vid OS i London 1908 blev han tillsammans med det svenska laget bronsmedaljör.

1904 var han med och stiftade Svenska simförbundet och blev då dess sekreterare. 1909 övertog han ordförandeskapet i förbundet och kvarstod i denna position fram till 1932. 1924–1928 var han även ordförande i Internationella simförbundet (FINA).

När FINA grundades 1908, uppdrogs Bergvall att skriva simidrottens regelverk. Detta presenterades 1910 och kvarstår i sin grundstruktur än på 2000-talet.

Bergvall var biträdande sekreterare i Sveriges Olympiska Kommitté 1906 och 1913–1924.

Efter ett flertal olympiska spel redigerade och delvis skrev han redogörelser över svenskarnas deltagande. Efter OS i Stockholm 1912 redigerade han den officiella redogörelsen.

1921 grundade han tillsammans med Nils Fröman och överståthållare Carl Hedenstierna den Svenska Föreningen för Folkbad.

Han var chef för Stockholms stadion 1916–1946, från början var det endast tänkt att han skulle stanna i två-tre år, men det blev ett 30-årigt livsverk. Erik Bergvall är begravd på Norra begravningsplatsen utanför Stockholm.

With a rich history of excellence and tradition, the Turrialtico Restaurant opened to the public in 1968. The founders were visionary seeing the potential and attractiveness of the valley. They were the bare owners of a special charisma and character that proved to be enough to make the new restaurant a success and a special establishment forever in the beautiful valley of Turrialba.
Today their daughter, Lucrecia and her husband, Hector, carry on their wonderful tradition. The meals served are Costa Rican, with a personal touch from the original owners, who maintained and kept the innovative recipes. These recipes are all held to the same high standards of quality today.
Strategically located on a hill above the valley overlooking the town of Turrialba, this open air restaurant allows you to sit anywhere and still enjoy the incredible views of the landscape. To the west lays the Turrialba Volcano, to the South Angostura Lake, fields of sugarcane and coffee with majestic Talamanca Mountain Range in the background, and to the east and the north more coffee farms and mountains. (The views are truly unforgettable).


Agile Methodology for Running a Small Agency?
Honestly, when I've work somewhere much slower and less engaging than I'd like, I just take a step back and go with the flow. Work on passion projects or freelance to fulfill me in the downtime or at home.
For the client, having at least a rough estimate allows them to make a decision and compare prices. Having to go through an entire consultation process to get a definitive number doesn't make that a tenable option for consumers. Being able to see quickly a ballpark figure to determine who they'd like to engage with is more convenient and then they can engage in more detailed budgetary discussions with the studio.
How did you even arrive at that calculation?
A lot of comments that don't see the customers point of view.
I find this to be really poor for the intended users of Github. I look at the commit messages and date stamps all the time. The end result seems more cluttered and messy than the previous.
Neat, size seems a bit redundant, but otherwise cool.

Hugh Glass A Fucking BAD ASS!
I could probably just post this guy's picture with no description at all and nobody would even question the fact that he was a total badass. Look at this fucking guy! He looks like the kind of man that would pound a bottle of Jack or eat an alligator while skinning a human being alive for looking at him cross-eyed on a Tuesday. And he pretty much was.
Now early 19th Century America was awesome because you could be hired by the government to be what was called a "mountain man", which was essentially the official way of saying "professional badass". Basically a mountain man would get hired on by an expedition to scout out territory, kill bears, play the banjo and give people the evil eye. Well that's what Hugh Glass did for a living. Hugh was an Irishman raised by Pawnee Indians who wandered the countryside lending his services to various expeditions that required a crazy bastard capable of busting bears' heads together, collecting furs, frightening the city-folk and being a hardass.
In 1822 Hugh Glass signed on to go on a fur-hunting expedition into the northern Missouri River area. One day while he was out alone hunting for food, he was surprise attacked by a bigass angry grizzly bear. The bear knocked the rifle out of Glass' hands, bodyslammed him Bill Goldberg-style and started clawing the shit out of him. Since he was a hardass Davy Crockett motherfucker though, Glass just started punching the thing back and hacking at it with his bigass mountain man combat knife. There was this huge battle, and when his friends finally got there to see what was going on, they found a half-conscious Glass pinned down underneath the body of a big dead bear.
But the badassitude of Hugh Glass doesn't solely reside in his ability to take a grizzly bear in hand-to-hand combat. The battle had left Glass half-dead, with a broken leg and huge scratches all over his body. Basically, he was so fucked up that the commander of the mission left two guys behind and was like, "wait until he dies, bury him, and then catch up with us". So these two guys threw a bearskin coat over Glass' badly maimed body, dug him a grave and waited around for him to die.
A little while later though, some hostile Native American warriors showed up, so the two guys grabbed Glass' equipment and bolted. Well it turned out that Glass wasn't about to die after all. He regained consciousness to find that he had been left for dead with no food, weapon or equipment.
Hugh Glass re-set his broken leg, climbed out of his shallow grave, cleaned out his infected wounds, and headed out for the nearest trace of civilization. His trek would take him through hostile territory where he was at risk of being attacked by Indians and wild animals alike. With only his bear fur, Hugh Glass crawled, walked, limped and rafted 600 miles to Fort Kiowa on the Missouri River.
This is probably one of the most badass survival stories I've ever heard. The guy's half-dead, he can't even walk and he manages to make it 200 miles through the treacherous American wilderness to safety.
After a long recuperation, Glass set out to track down and avenge himself against Bridger and Fitzgerald. When he found Bridger, on the Yellowstone near the mouth of the Bighorn River, Glass spared him, purportedly because of Bridger's youth. When he found Fitzgerald, he discovered that Fitzgerald had joined the United States Army, Glass purportedly restrained himself because the consequence of killing a U.S. soldier was death. However, he did recover his lost rifle.
Hugh Glass went on to travel with pirates, go on more expeditions and continue to be awesome. In true badass mountain man fashion, he was killed in 1833 by hostile Indians.

Artist To Watch: Lorde
Lorde isn't waiting to graduate high school to take the world by storm
By Melissa Locker Aug. 23, 2013
[youtube=http://youtu.be/D8Ymd-OCucs]
11 Best Music Videos of 2013 (So Far)
Summer Music Preview 2013
Meet Lorde: She's a Talented Teenage Badass Noisey
Discovery: Lorde Interview Magazine
Band: Lorde
From: Auckland, New Zealand
Her Sound: Lorde, the stage name of Ella Yelich-O'Connor, has a soulful voice that stays effortlessly cool even while it quivers with emotion. Her sweetly languid sound is juxtaposed against trip-hop R&B beats for an effect that calls to mind James Blake, Florence Welch, Portishead and Lana Del Rey, but is uniquely her own.
Three-Minute Bio: The first thing you need to know about Yelich-O'Connor is that she's 16 years old. The second thing you should know is that age is nothing but a number and one listen to Lorde's smoky, soulful sound is enough to know that she's no Disney-style singer manufactured in a pop-princess factory. Lorde's sleek and sizzling style is more Kanye than Miley, marrying a pop sensibility to a rap swagger.
That Lorde does not have a full-length album out yet — the Auckland native is recording her debut album, Pure Heroine, now, for release on Sept. 30 — has been little more than a bump on the road to her success. Same goes for the facts that she has only played a handful of shows as Lorde and has yet to graduate high school (she's taking a break to finish recording her album). After all, she signed a development deal with Universal when she was 12 years old. Her first EP, The Love Club, was released last November and was given away for free online. On the strength of that release, she's already started building up a significant global fan club.
Her debut single, "Royals," was the number one song on New Zealand's Top 40 chart for weeks, garnering over a million Soundcloud clicks, and for good reason, too. The song seamlessly blends sparse electronic beats with warmly cool vocals and inspired lyrics. While Lorde is heavily influenced by the rap and hip-hop scene, the song calls out the excess and superficiality of that culture. She sings: "Every song's like: 'gold teeth, Grey Goose, trippin' in the bathroom, blood stains, ball gowns, trashin' the hotel room.'"
It's a stance that belies her age, swapping youthful bravado for sage seen-it-all-ness. It's a neat trick that Lorde frequently pulls off as she vacillates between the self-possessed swagger of a much more experienced artist and a youthful enthusiasm more in line with her age (for example, in "Royals," she adds to her soulful screed, "Let me live that fantasy"). At 16-going-on-17, Lorde's songs have both levity and depth, something that most pop stars strive for at 20, 30 and whatever age Madonna is now. Lorde's raw talent ensures that she will have a musical career as long as she wants one.

Something a little silly and fun for today….
One of the very cool things that Geoff and I got to do over our Christmas road trip was drive by the house used as the exterior shots of Walter White's house in Breaking Bad. To both of us, it was a mini pilgrimage, a holy shrine dedicated to one of the best shows television has ever produced. (Seriously; we were talking about it the other night and couldn't think of ONE single time the show had miss-stepped even slightly in its entire run. What other show can you say that of?) I brought my Heisenberg hat along the entire trip just for this one moment, and it was completely worth it.
While running the marathon, AMC's website had some really fun Breaking Bad extras for fans to enjoy, such as a quiz which would tell you which villain you were most like. I was perversely proud and pleased when the quiz told me I was most like Gus Fring.
I even saved my results because they were so fun. And you know? I can kind of see it. Were I to take the path of the bad guy, I probably would be that scariest kind of quiet, seemingly peaceful villain who, when the mask is dropped, threatens to kill you, your wife, your son and infant daughter, then slits a man's throat with a box cutter in front of you just to prove his point.
All Hail The Queen, my Breaking Bad homage.

Wide ranging economic recovery plan clears first hurdle
Published on November 4, 2020 in Business/Municipal by Kirk Winter
Continued improvements to downtowns is one of a handful of focuses for the city's economic recovery.
Council enthusiastically endorsed, in principal, the recommendations of the Economic Recovery Task Force presented at their committee of the whole meeting on Nov. 3.
These recommendations include improvements to the downtowns, investments in boat launches and trails, a commitment to move forward with plans for increased broadband capacity, developing a cultural sector recovery grant program and continuing to partner with the Kawartha Lakes Innovation Cluster.
Twenty years ago this month, Victoria County ceased to exist. In its place the City of Kawartha Lakes was born,
Tending the rural economy

Although the bigger communities in Kawartha Lakes — Bobcaygeon, Fenelon Falls and Lindsay — are often seen as the focus of the local economy, globalization means that they are unlikely ever to return to the days of large-scale manufacturing facilities such as Fleetwood or Viskase.
Economic development now means nurturing smaller operations, many of them located outside our population centres. That in turn means thinking differently about how to support these rural businesses.
If Councillor Ron Ashmore has his way Kawartha Lakes could one day be a manufacturing hub for PPE, therapeutics, and
Workplaces must screen workers, volunteers for COVID-19 or else face stiff penalties
Published on September 30, 2020 in Business/Health by Lindsay Advocate
A new COVID-19-screening law has been in effect for workplaces in Ontario for the past five days — but not all employers may realize it.
By order of Ontario health officials, starting Sept. 25, all workplaces in Ontario must screen all workers, contractors, volunteers and outside service providers for COVID-19 as a condition of entry.

100 years since Armistice was declared, the Nash Ensemble dedicates its fourth LSO St Luke's residency to music written in the wake of the Great War.
In the opening performance of this four-concert series – presented by LSO St Luke's regulars the Nash Ensemble – are two works that give two very different reactions to a conflict that brought a new form of brutality and devastation.
John Ireland's 1917 Second Piano Trio is a vivid journey, from its languorous opening, to the crushing fear and agitation in its depiction of men going 'over the top' – yet there's a flicker of optimism and hope underneath it all, which triumphs in its impressive finale. Elgar's 1919 Piano Quintet is a different side of the same coin; introspective, ghostly melodies reign, inspired by the beauty of the Sussex countryside where the composer had retreated in a dark psychological state.

Fury back on the race track to win The Grand Prize
By Friend X on	 27.4.2020 English, Reports, Reviews
You can find a slightly updated version at obscuro.eu
Fury? Fury? Fury?
Taken from Fury's website
Wasn't there an American TV show about a Saddle breed stallion in the late 50ies named Fury? In addition, wasn't there a film about an American tank with Brad Pitt in the leading role in 2014?
But wait! That's not all, there is also Fury, the band from the British West Midlands. And THEY are the real Fury-deal, so forget about the two others.
Fury consists of Julian Jenkins, vocals and guitar, Becky Baldwin on bass guitar and becking vocals, Tom Fenn on drums and Jake Elwell on lead guitar. One might remember or know Becky well as the current bass player of Hands Off Gretel and former Dorja.

After "The Lightning Dream" in 2014 and "Lost In Space" 2016 they currently released their third album "The Grand Prize" and that's what we're going to talk about. We know from the mentioned 2 albums and thunderous live shows, Fury see themselves very much in the old school metal tradition of Iron Maiden, Saxon, Judas Priest or even a bit heavier – of Metallica, so that's what we would expect, but what do we get?Let's go through the album song by song.
The race starts
"You're The Fire", first song of the album, already comes up with a very melodic Iron Maiden – style intro riff, the song sounds fresh and light hearted, contains a twin guitar solo, what do you want more than such a very easy going song which raises your mood to listen to a new album first time?
"Galactic Rock" continues as a powerful, dynamic song in the same mood than the previous track, yes, you really feel where their origins are.

"The World Is Mine, there is a funny side note, Hands Off Gretel, Becky's other band, released a song and album titled "I want the world" last year, so at least for her is seems to be the right continuation, so what be next? Otherwise, not so much Iron-Maiden style, nevertheless traditional but refreshed Heavy Metal, rolling and through its nearly five minutes, both, singer and guitar player prove their skills as excellent musicians just to be caught by the bass player and the drummer. If you think of a song, which is the typical Fury-sound, this one defines it. It will certainly become a highlight of each live-show if not the battle hymn of Fury.
"Burnout" starts with a bass line, even Steve Harris would be proud of, powerful and straight into your brain. Overall, a song with quite dominant bass lines underlined with crashing guitars and a furyious guitar solo, inviting to bang your head and jump into the air until it finishes out of the sudden, perfect.
"We Will Sing" is a very catchy song and yes, we will sing, we will sing it altogether as soon the band goes on tour. This song is nothing but pure good mood and happy metal, nevertheless the main riff is very heavy though not gloomy.

"The Grand Prize", the title track of the album even seems to have some Steppenwolf influence, you have to know, this song really is born to be wild and let loose, and it belongs to the stages of world. Moreover indeed nomen est omen, it has the speed attitude of a racetrack, well, Silverstone seems to be in sight.
"2nd Prize", far away from being just a second prize, is a powerful song with clearly complex structures, some really screaming and crashing guitar parts. It would be an instrumental song and the guitars do all the singing alone, but it becomes ballad-like after roughly 4 minutes and Rob Half.., no Julian Jenkins sings the few lines to finish this interesting song.
"Upon The Lonesome Tide", the one really slower song of the album with soft and tender vocals one would not expect on a Metal album like this. It would be the time; everybody in the audience would raise and wave their hands, switch on their lights and dream away into the night together with Fury.
Photo of Tom taken from Fury's website
"Casino Soleil" starts as a wild breed of the perfect Iron Maiden and Judas Priest song, it is nearly 6 minutes long, but they don't seem to last longer than short 3:30 minutes.
The instrumental part in the middle of the song mixes not only the 2 named bands together but turns into some Black Sabbathish guitar riffs, followed by classical Elvis Presley style sing-along before it continues to follow its original path.
"Road Warrior" as the closer of the album starts darker and deeper than all other songs of the album, did I already Black Sabbath as an influence. It holds for 30 seconds, then Fury are back to their own style of catchy up speed guitar riffs and bass lines.

After the finish line, is it The Grand Prize?
If not on the previous releases, with The Grand Price, Fury have finally found their definitive sound which clearly has its roots and origins the band cannot deny. Indeed they fit in perfectly with their fresh but traditional style, New Wave Of British Heavy Metal at its best and youngest child! In the time of double trouble triple pedal metal drums it is refreshing to listen to drums, which are not overdone but played to the point. Therefore, I can certainly recommend listening and buying this album, check the website of the band and order it there if possible and plan in to see Fury live later the year if faith works out well. So yes, it is the Grand Prize, Fury have promised!

I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. I hope the following can help.
I have experience with this. I use 6 lbs and leave a 4.5 inch opening/lid.
Make sure to have a good gallery as the funeral home will glue the lid on.
making one urn takes more out of me than any dozen pots (mentally).
agoodsized shoe box if that is any help.

Melchior asks about the size a funeral jar should be.
bigger than 6" x 6" x 8". I'd say a gallon sized container would do it.
2 gallons. Think of the size of gallon milk cartons for reference.
You could also see some (probably bronze) at your local mortuary.
afford the funeral home prices. Any ideas?
they sift out the large lumps, put the finer particles in the urn.
most beautiful ones in the world.
$300.00 for the order not bad for 1979.
> they sift out the large lumps, put the finer particles in the urn.
human ashes come back from the crematorium in cans 14cm diameter X 15cm high.
the design. Hope this helps.
question. I was asked to make an urn for my best friend's 16yr old dog.
urn looks like a big ginger jar with a cup type lid.
a piece for himself. I was blown away and very moved by these 4 brothers.
piece for their Dad. I packed it up, handed it to them and they left.
death of their father and husband a bit easier.
It was all very moving and I will remember them for a long time.
>> > need to keep in mind.? I've never seen a jar for ashes. Thanks. J.
this will incorporate research into changing social attitudes to death.
It is a huge project, does any one have any suggestions?
happening in Australia. I'm happy to send you a copy if you're interested.
out of it have been quite remarkable.

Feel more empowered and in-the-know before your next home buying journey by walking through each phase of the mortgage process!
As home prices continue to rise and inventory levels stay low, our current seller's market signals stronger competition with more buyers fighting for fewer homes. In this scenario, making a perfect offer is key to securing a house. So what factors make your offer stand out from the rest?
If you are a first-time homebuyer, you might think that the price tag on the home is the only cost involved for a mortgage. However, there are other expenses that might catch you off guard. If you're shopping for your first house, prepare for these additional, and often unexpected, homebuying costs.
Having student loans won't keep someone from buying a house, although they need to be comfortable with the idea of taking on a good amount of debt while still dealing with their student loans. Here are some questions to ask yourself!
5 Home Buying Myths – Busted!
For many, owning a home is part of the American dream, but it's easy to feel anxious about making the leap to buy one. There's a lot of confusion from how much of a down payment you need saved to what types of mortgages are best. Maybe this causes you to think it's not financially your time, or just more trouble than it's worth. Let's set the record straight and separate fact from fiction!
If you're in a committed relationship but marriage is on the back burner, your dream of buying a home doesn't have to be.

I have tried different linux images, debian, ubuntu... I don't know it is related to a bad vlc installation.

A: Your event listener looks very wrong to me:
override fun finished(p0: MediaPlayer?) {
                    p0!!.release()             // <------
                    isFinished = true
                }

You are trying to release the media player while it is processing events. Releasing the media player does a lot of clean-up, including freeing native resources. This is almost certainly the cause of your crash.
Instead, release the media player just before you release the factory.
Alternatively, you are looping on a non-threadsafe isFinished variable to check for the video being finished.
You set isFinished to true inside the event listener, your while loop (depending on timing) in another thread might then proceeed to factory.release() before the media player (and the associated native media player) have finished processing the event.
You may need a more sophisticated synchronisation mechanism.
You're basically trying to force synchronous processing with an asynchronous API.
There are classes in the vlcj "waiter" package that are designed to help with such problems.

Transcript Pedro Costa DISSENT! session
"We have to do away with this notion of urgency associated with politics, because it's the contrary of love. That's where it starts. Politics is love." The politics of Pedro Costa's cinema has nothing to do with the instructive demonstration of injustice or the uncovering of mechanisms of exploitation or repression, but with a committed search for an approach that lives up to the capacity of anyone. This politics is most present in the films he has been making, since the mid 1990's, in Fontainhas, a poor and insular Lisbon neighborhood, where he uses minimal means to capture its habitants in all their grandeur. This is a cinema of desire and conviction: the desire to take the time and the risk to capture the essence of people and things, the conviction that cinema not only has to witness the wealth of the world – the wealth belonging to anyone – but also has to return it, as condensations of light and color, bodies and objects, speech and silence. In this sense Costa's work has a lot in common with the films of Jean-Marie Straub en Danièle Huillet, which he once described as "the fastest, the most furious, the most beautiful, sensual, ancient, modern." While critical attention is all too often directed at the communist world view of Straub-Huillet, Costa particularly draws from the way in which they give cinematographic form to their ideas, as an unique and rigorous play of materialism, mysticism and humanism. In this DISSENT! session Pedro Costa will use fragments from Où gît votre sourire enfoui? (2001), his portrait of Straub-Huillet, to discuss the ethics and politics underpinning their work. In the words of Jean-Marie Straub: "no political film without morals, no political film without theology, no political film without mystique."
Pedro Costa is also presenting 'En Avant Jeunesse!', 'Ne change rien' and 'Centro Historico' (Costa/Oliveira/Erice/Kaurasmaki) at Bozar; on February 3rd.
Pedro Costa's visit to Brussels was initiated by Ecole de Recherche Graphique.
