It's difficult to draw lines around luxury, or confine one's definition of adventure within a certain set of boundaries. Today's luxury might be therapeutic yoga on the deck of a yacht, while tomorrow's adventure could encompass deep-sea fishing in the Indian Ocean. You decide. While you're considering the options, consider the fact that Crystal Esprit will sail 11 exotic itineraries through the picturesque Seychelles Islands beginning in January. The Seychelles – known as a picture-perfect, get-away-from-it-all playground for the VIP celebrities of the world – set the backdrop for whatever luxury and island yachting adventure you crave.
We understand this might make the decision making more challenging, as you'll have at your fingertips the opportunity to soar above the forested hillsides of Mahé, Victoria via zipline, or above the colossal skyscrapers of Dubai's skyline in a helicopter. You can dive far below sea level outfitted for the spectacular scuba experiences on the reefs, or in the comfort of the luxury yacht's private submersible that provides a window to the underwater world.
The point here is, don't choose. You don't have to. The nine-day voyages afford you many luxuries, among them the luxury of checking off a different "I've always wanted to ____" adventure each day. Even if you've simply always wanted to sail through pristine waters on a luxury yacht, sipping champagne served to you by one of Crystal's attentive butlers. We think that's an excellent choice.


From what weather reports are saying and from the sound of the winds wuthering around Vineyard chimneys, it certainly appears that the Week Ahead will be a time for hunkering down at home or venturing not-to-far-from to enjoy some indoor activities. Luckily the coming week has a lot of options for all. Keep cozy and enjoy the Week Ahead!

In this chapter we first outline some of the popular computing environments used for analysing neural data, followed by a brief discussion of 'software carpentry', basic tools and skills from software engineering that can be of great use to computational scientists. We then introduce the concept of open-source software and explain some of its potential benefits for the academic community before giving a brief directory of some freely available open source software packages that address various aspects of the study of neural codes. While there are many commercial offerings that provide similar functionality, we concentrate here on open source packages, which in addition to being available free of charge, also have the source code available for study and modification.

Major Themes in Death Comes for the Archbishop
Death Comes for the Archbishop as a Catholic Novel
Full Glossary for Death Comes for the Archbishop
The episodic, nearly plotless narrative of Death Comes for the Archbishop begins with a Prologue in which the Vatican assigns Father Jean Marie Latour, a French Jesuit missionary priest serving in Sandusky, Ohio, to the New Mexico territory following the region's annexation to the United States. Latour is elevated to bishop, and sets out for Santa Fe with Father Joseph Vaillant, a personal friend from the pair's schooldays.
Latour and Vaillant are charged with reinvigorating the Catholic Church in the region after nearly three centuries of neglect. Although the region can still be considered predominantly Catholic, the faith has been usurped by rogue priests who have taken mistresses with whom they have fathered children, abused the Mexican and Indian natives, and exhibited greed.
Latour sets out to impart a disciplined approach to Catholicism in the Southwest, meeting resistance from Padre Gallegos in Albuquerque, Padre Antonio Jose Martinez of Taos, and Padre Lucero of Arroyo Hondo. Gallegos is a hedonistic glutton and gambler, Martinez a promiscuous libertine, and Lucero a greedy liar.
It takes Latour nearly a year to travel from Ohio to New Mexico, traveling down the Mississippi River to New Orleans, and then on to Galveston by steamboat. He loses most of his possessions in Galveston, when the steamboat is wrecked, but continues to travel by land across Texas and into the New Mexico territory with a mare and a pack mule.
Upon arriving in Santa Fe, the Mexican priests refuse to acknowledge Latour's authority. In order to clarify the matter with the Archbishop of Durango, Latour sets out on a 3,000-mile journey. On his way, he gets lost. He is rescued by a little girl who leads him to Agua Secreta (Hidden Water). Here he learns that the priests of the region have charged exorbitant amounts to perform the Sacrament of Marriage, causing many of the natives to take wives without benefit of marriage. While admiring the craftsmanship and artistry of the native church, Latour recognizes that the natives have allowed their own superstitions to permeate their Catholic faith.
Latour returns to Santa Fe with documentation of his Vicarate, and finds that he has endeared himself to many of the town's residents as his presence has prompted some corrupt priests to resign their posts. Vaillant sets out for Santo Domingo and Albuquerque, in order to perform baptisms and marriages. The Indians of Santo Domingo, however, are suspicious of Latour due to the ill treatment they received from Spanish conquerors centuries ago. In Albuquerque, he meets Manuel Lujon, a wealthy landowner, with whom he barters for two mules.
While traveling to Mora together, Latour and Vaillant stop at a house to escape bitterly cold rain and to seek a warm place to rest. The house is inhabited by an older man and his young Mexican wife. The wife warns the two priests to leave as soon as possible because she fears her husband will kill them. When they arrive in Mora, they are followed by the woman. She tells the priests her name is Magdalena and her husband's name is Buck Scales. She reports that Buck killed four travelers on the Mora trail. Scales is subsequently arrested and hanged, and Kit Carson takes Magdalena to live with him and his wife near Taos.
Latour and his guide, Jacinto, travel west to the Indian missions. They spend time in Albuquerque with Padre Gallegos. Gallegos, afraid that Latour will ask him to accompany him on his visits to the West, wraps his foot in bandages and complains that he has gout. Latour and Jacinto push on to the pueblo of Isleta, where they meet Padre Jesus de Baca. The elderly priest lives in poverty among the Indians of the pueblo, claiming only one possession@ — a wooden parrot. He tells Latour that the Indians of Acoma own a portrait of St. Joseph that possesses the miraculous power to bring rain.
Latour earns the admiration and respect of Jacinto. He tells Latour the story of the elevated rock plateau of Acoma. Initially a sanctuary for Indians seeking shelter from other marauding tribes, a great church had been built in the sixteenth-century by the missionary Fray Juan Ramirez. On their return trip, Padre Jesus de Baca tells Latour the story of Friar Baltazar Montoya, a seventeenth-century priest of Acoma. Montoya virtually enslaved the Indians of Acoma, forcing the women to carry water daily up the side of the mountain to nourish his outlandish gardens. The Indians were afraid that Montoya might possess magical powers beyond the ability of the portrait of St. Joseph to bring rain.
Wishing others to admire his garden, Montoya plans a dinner party. He invites several missionaries. During a story by one of the priests, a serving boy becomes distracted and spills a platter of gravy on one of the guests. An angry and drunken Montoya throws a goblet at the boy, which kills him. The guests leave, and the Indians revolt against Montoya by throwing him from the plateau.
Latour returns to Santa Fe, and dismisses Father Gallegos. Vaillant replaces Gallegos, replacing his predecessor's revelry with a more austere devotion. Vaillant is dispatched to Las Vegas. On his way back to Albuquerque, he stops to administer Last Rites to residents of a Pecos Mountain village who are afflicted with black measles. Vaillant becomes afflicted as well. Latour travels to help his friend, and stops along the way to visit Jacinto, his wife Clara and the couple's sick child. Latour ponders the impact of white settlement among the Indians and the diseases the whites have spread.
Latour and Jacinto set out toward Vaillant but encounter a blizzard. They seek refuge in a cave that Jacinto confides has been used for Indian ceremonies. Jacinto beseeches Latour to never mention the cave to anyone@ — a request that Latour honors. The two weather the storm in the cave and find Vaillant the following day. Kit Carson is already there, and they take Vaillant back to Santa Fe.
Carson tells Latour about a white trader named Zeb Orchard. Orchard is a recluse, but Latour arranges a stay with him to learn more about Indian customs and ceremonies. Orchard belittles Indian customs, but Latour confesses that the Indians' veneration of customs and traditions is similar to the Catholic faith.
Latour and Jacinto travel to meet Padre Antonio Jose Martinez, the elderly priest of Taos. Informed by Kit Carson that all white men were distrusted in Taos, Latour also learns that Martinez is widely regarded as the instigator of an Indian revolt that resulted in the murder of more than a dozen white men, including the territorial governor. Seven Indians were hanged for the murder, but Martinez was never indicted. Instead, he convinced the Indians to sign over their worldly possessions to him before they were executed, resulting in Martinez becoming one of the wealthiest men in New Mexico.
Among the first things Latour learns upon meeting Martinez is that he has fathered children. Martinez challenges Latour on the Catholic Church's celibacy rule for priests. Martinez claims the native priests are more devout than the French Jesuits and warns Latour that enforcing "European formalities" will result in "infidels and profligates." He challenges Latour to dismiss him, saying he will form his own church.
Despite their disagreements, during High Mass the following day Latour admires Martinez's singing voice as well as the man's undeniable charisma. He discusses the matter of Martinez with Mrs. Kit Carson, who tells him that a disagreement with Martinez will set the Indians against Latour. He confides to Vaillant that he will replace Martinez eventually, but he will replace him with a Spanish priest when he returns from a trip to the Vatican in Rome.
Latour returns from Rome a year later with four French priests and one Spanish priest. He appoints the Spanish priest, Father Taladrid, to replace Martinez, allowing him the privilege to celebrate Mass upon Holy Days. When the arrangement proves untenable to Taladrid, Latour decides in favor of the Spanish priest. Martinez, infuriated, forms a schismatic church with Padre Marino Lucero of Arroyo Hondo. Lucero is depicted as an avaricious old man, given to castoff clothing and austere eating habits. In response, Latour sends Vaillant to strip Martinez and Lucero of the rights and privileges of the priesthood. Although excommunicated, the two priests continue their heretical schismatic church until their deaths shortly thereafter. While Martinez dies without repenting, Vaillant presides over Lucero's reconciliation with the Church. Upon his death, it is revealed that the miserly priest had saved nearly $20,000 in American money.
Latour becomes determined to build a cathedral in Santa Fe. He enlists the financial aid of Don Antonio Olivares, a wealthy Mexican rancher with Dona Isabella, his American wife from Kentucky who was raised as a Southern belle in Louisiana. The couple have a daughter, Inez, who possesses none of her mother's beauty but sings beautifully. At a New Year's party thrown by the Olivares, Don Olivares pledges enough money for Latour to build the cathedral. It is also where the character of Don Manuel Chavez is introduced to the reader. A master marksman, Chavez hunted Indians for sport as a young man. Surviving an Indian attack that killed all fifty of his companions, including his brother, Chavez walked sixty miles to the future location of Fort Defiance. A follower of Padre Martinez, Chavez distrusts Latour.
Olivares dies before bequeathing the promised cathedral monies to Latour. His death begins a prolonged legal battle between Dona Isabella and Olivares's brothers. The brothers claim that Inez is too old to be the daughter of Dona Isabella, which Dona Isabella will not refute for fear of revealing her age. Latour convinces her to reject her vanity for the greater purpose, and she consents. She eventually wins the lawsuit.
Following the Gadsden Purchase, which allowed the United States to annex areas of southern New Mexico and Arizona, Father Vaillant travels to Mexico to negotiate the establishment of parish boundaries in the area. On his return, he is stricken with malaria. Latour and Jacinto ride to Arizona, find Vaillant, and bring him back to Santa Fe to recuperate. It is the month of May, and Latour's orchard and garden are in full bloom. Vaillant welcomes the respite in Latour's garden as an opportunity to meditate on the Virgin Mary as he had done when assigned to the Great Lakes region of the Midwest. Vaillant considers May to be the month when all important events occur in his life.
Latour tells Vaillant he is eager for him to stay with him in Santa Fe. Vaillant responds that he hopes to be healthy enough for travel by July in order to educate Catholics who have lapsed in their practices. He equates the Indians with children who have no use for property or financial gain. He relates an anecdote of an Indian he has met who took him into a cave where his family had hidden items for performing a Catholic Mass. The Indian tells Vaillant that his family hid the items after the Catholic mission from where they were kept was attacked by Apaches. He believes the story of the artifacts is a parable of the Catholic faith being buried in the frontier waiting to be discovered. He convinces Latour that he must return to his missionary work. The priests' conversation is interrupted when Magdalena enters Latour's garden. Her appearance is accompanied by a flurry of pigeons and doves, and the priests are reminded of how much she has changed since they first met her.
The following December, Latour is feeling that his efforts are having no impact on the area. He wakes in the middle of the night to an early snowfall, and walks to the church. In front of the church is a weeping woman who Latour recognizes as Sada, a Mexican slave to a local Smith family, Protestants who publicly belittle and blaspheme the Catholic faith. The family refuses to allow Sada to practice her Catholicism, and she has escaped for the evening to pray in the chapel. Latour gives her his cloak to wear and allows her into the church, where she kisses the floor and prays with him. The experience allows Latour to see the importance of his mission: "The church was Sada's house, and he was a servant in it."
When spring arrives, Latour and Jacinto visit the Navajo Eusabio, who has recently lost a son. Latour uses the visit to reflect on his long friendship with Vaillant. Latour recognizes that Vaillant may have been a poorer student but was always more fervent in his faith. He recognizes that Vaillant is fond of good food and drink but nevertheless rigidly observes fasts. He also admires Vaillant's easy demeanor with new people. He remembers a story of Vaillant's audience with the Pope Gregory XVI. Instead of bringing the one customary item for the pope to bless, Vaillant brought two suitcases of items. He so delights the pope that the pontiff forgets several subsequent engagements.
Latour sends Jacinto to Arizona to deliver a letter to Vaillant. Eusabio accompanies Latour on his return to Santa Fe. During their travels, Latour notices that the Indian way is to not disturb the landscape whenever possible, whereas white men seem to assert themselves as much as possible.
Vaillant returns to Santa Fe at Latour's command but wonders why he has been there for three weeks with no reason being given. Latour takes his Vicar for a ride to show him the rock he has selected as the stone for the cathedral he plans to build. Vaillant is puzzled as to why Latour is so emphatic about the design of the cathedral and why he has been called back to Santa Fe.
Latour receives correspondence from the Bishop of Leavenworth, Kansas, that the Gold Rush of Colorado has created a need for a priest to serve the makeshift towns of tents and shacks that have cropped up near Pikes Peak. Informing Latour that the Colorado territory is under his domain, it is incumbent upon him to assign the priest. Latour tells Vaillant that he will fill the position. Although Vaillant is prepared to leave immediately, Latour orders him to stay until a custom wagon can be built and adequate provisions acquired. Vaillant reflects on a murderer he visited in Chimayo. The criminal was making a pair of boots for the patron saint of the Chimayo church. His parents would come for his execution and return home with the boots. Vaillant is certain the men to whom he'll administer in Colorado will be less devout.
Vaillant's wagon takes a month to build. Latour recognizes that the two will probably never work together again. Vaillant considers the opportunity to serve in Colorado an act of divine providence. Latour assures him that it was a coincidence, because he called Vaillant back from Arizona because of his loneliness. The Vicar leaves for Colorado, and the Bishop's loneliness is mitigated by his recognition of the presence of the Virgin Mary. He considers the wooden carving of Mary in the Santa Fe church, and the Mexican devotions to her in the form of clothing. He places their work on equal footing with Raphael and Titian, who also wardrobed the Virgin Mary in their art.
Latour's premonition that Vaillant would never return to work in New Mexico is proven correct. The Vicar returns to Santa Fe to recuperate from illnesses and to attend the formal proceedings marking Latour's elevation to Archbishop. Vaillant's life in Colorado is hard and cold, and he misses the mountains of the Southwest. He suffers permanent injury when his wagon falls into a ravine. His parishioners in Colorado, though far more wealthy, are less giving than the peasants of New Mexico, causing Vaillant to travel frequently to Santa Fe to raise money for his church in Colorado. When the residents of Santa Fe bestow ample gifts on Vaillant, Latour states that he'll need a cart to deliver his cargo to Colorado. The following morning, a cart is delivered. The two men say their goodbyes, with the Archbishop declaring the Vicar "a great harvester of souls, without pride and without shame."
The Archbishop spends his retirement years on an estate four miles north of Santa Fe. He bought the acreage before his retirement so that he could enjoy the orchard he planted. He also builds an adobe house and a chapel. As a retiree, Latour trains missionary priests. He spends much of his time gardening. He receives Bernard Ducrot, a young Seminarian who becomes a good friend to the Archbishop during his last years. He contracts a fever and begins to speak nothing but French. He asks the new Archbishop for permission to return to his study in Santa Fe, and his request is granted. When he returns to the city, he bemoans the number of wood-frame houses that have become more prominent. His cathedral has been built, and Latour observes the building by the light of the Southwest sunset.
Latour has come to love the New World more than the Old, and he prepares to die in his adopted homeland. Ducrot and Magdalena look after the Archbishop as his health continues to fail. He ponders the hardships of the missionaries in New Mexico, comparing them to the deprivations of St. Paul and other early Christians. He considers the hardships of the missionaries to be greater due to the greater distances they have traveled from their homelands.
Latour remembers a story another priest had told him about Father Junipero. Junipero had traveled with a companion across a vast desert, arriving at a monastery in good health with no provisions. The pair relates the story of the gracious hospitality of a young Mexican family consisting of a venerable man, his beautiful wife, an infant, and a pet lamb. Junipero and his companion eat well, sleep, and awaken to a table of food. The family, however, is gone. The brothers recognize the landmarks depicted by Junipero but have no recollection of a building or family living there. Latour recognizes the family in the story as the Holy Family and is charmed at the simplicity adopted by the Divine Family.
Latour's memories return to his decision to leave France for America with Vaillant. He remembers Vaillant faltering in his resolve and convincing his friend to travel as far as Paris. Latour's encouragement was the impetus Vaillant required to fulfill his pledge as a missionary in the New World. Latour marvels at his now-deceased friend's accomplishments despite his ill health and setbacks.
Among the setbacks faced by Vaillant is the interest due on loans for property he purchased for the Church. He is summoned to Rome to explain his complicated financial arrangements before a papal court. Vaillant returns to Colorado before he dies, and Latour travels to his funeral. Also attending the funeral is Father Revardy, who had served with Vaillant for more than twenty years. He is in Chicago when he hears of Vaillant's death, but he rushes back in ill health to attend the funeral of his friend. Revardy arrives halfway through the funeral and is immediately taken to the hospital afterward; he dies a few days later. Latour recalls that his friend inspired such devotion from men of all races.
Recognizing that he has outlived most of his oldest acquaintances, Latour is visited by Eusabio. Eusabio relates that he traveled to Santa Fe from Gallup in one day, whereas in the past it would have taken two weeks. Eusabio is not encouraged by the progress of civilization but is told by Latour that it is better to not know the future. When Eusabio leaves, Latour tells Bernard that he has seen two great wrongs righted in his lifetime: the end of slavery and the restoration of the Navajos to their rightful lands.
Latour's admiration for the nomadic Navajos is strong. He recognizes the injustices committed against them by white men and Apaches alike. He considers Kit Carson misguided for his role in eradicating the Navajos. Carson had found the Navajo's hidden fields located in a red-sandstone canyon and destroyed their corn fields and orchards. The act so disheartened the Navajos that that ceased to fight, and most of them were captured and relocated. Eusabio arranged a meeting between Latour and Manuelito, a Navajo leader. Manuelito is unable to convince Latour to intercede between the Navajos and the U.S. government, because Latour believes that a Protestant country will not accept a Roman Catholic priest's recommendations. The government changed its decision five years later, and the Navajos were allowed to return to their sacred lands.
During his last days, Latour sleeps often and eats little. His cathedral is full of parishioners who pray for him. On his deathbed, he returns to the day he convinced Vaillant to travel to Paris with him. Latour dies, and all of Santa Fe's Catholics pray for him. His body is laid before the high altar of the cathedral he built.

Daily Joke: Lawyer Returns Home to Find His Distraught Wife Crying over a Leaky Sink
April 21, 2020 | by Jaimie-lee Prince
We expect that lawyers make absurd amounts of money in one day. Sometimes, it's the small but necessary jobs that bring in the real dough.
One day, an esteemed lawyer returned from work to find his wife crying due to a leaking sink.
He rested down his suitcase and took off his clean business suit. He then tried to fix the sink himself.

The lawyer calls a maintenance man
After quite some time, the man finally realizes he can't do the job and decides to phone a maintenance man.
The plumber arrives and within three moves he fixes the sink. When he's done, he tells the lawyer, "That will be $95."

The lawyer is outraged. He can't believe he has to pay $95 for no more than five minutes of work.
Because of his status, though, he knows he has to pay and gives the maintenance man the fee.
The lawyer is still appalled by the price. "It's absurd!" he screams out of anger.

"I'm a top lawyer in town and not even I can make $95 in less than five minutes of work!"
The maintenance man shrugs before responding, "Honestly, I didn't either when I was a lawyer."
A moth walks into a podiatrist's office
One day, a moth walks into a podiatrist's office. The podiatrist asks, "What's the problem today, buddy?"
The moth answers: "Where do I even begin? My job is the worst. After 20 years of giving him my all, I feel like my boss doesn't know I exist.

"My marriage is a big joke. Some days I'll look over at my wife and feel like I barely know her. My own son thinks I'm a clown.
"What I'm saying is, I just feel like nothing ever goes my way. I can't catch a break!"
The podiatrist finally responds, "Wow moth. It sounds like you've got a lot of issues to sort out. But you seem to need a psychiatrist, not a podiatrist. Why'd you come here?"
The moth replies: "Well because the light was on."
A man goes to the cinema with his wife

SHILOH FARMS Whole Wheat Pitas are hearth baked with the wonderful old-world texture and taste. The "pocket" in pita bread is created by steam, which puffs up the dough. As the bread cools and flattens, a pocket is left in the middle. When removed from the oven, the layers of baked dough remain separated inside the deflated pita, which allows the bread to be opened into pockets, creating a space for use in various dishes. People fill the pockets with various ingredients to form a sandwich.
Keep Frozen until ready to use, then allow to thaw at room temperature. Heat in a warm oven to enhance the flavor.
2. Fill pita pockets with fresh berries and whipped cream cheese desserts or treats.
3. Vegetables and meat dishes are great in the pita pockets.
4. Try your favorite egg omelet in a pita pocket.

We recommend that you refreeze the product once you get your delivery, and keep it frozen until ready to use.
Not only delicious, but a great whole food - no dough conditioners, preservatives or stabilizers. Love it!
These are the most wonderful pitas and the only whole wheat pita I can find that doesn't contain sugar or other additives. It's completely 100% whole grain and it has only stone ground whole wheat flour, water, salt, and yeast in it. They are delicious and when you warm them up a bit whether by oven, pan, or microwave, they have that wonderful bakery aroma of fresh baked bread. They truly are the best.
I am very aware of shipping and packaging as being not good for the environment, but Shiloh Farms pita broke right through that barrier. I tried a store bought brand, but it had a few other ingredients, and was not as tasty to me. So with apologies to the earth goddess, I am back to ordering my case of pita, freezing it, and enjoying my two toasted pita halves, whenever I want a snack---it's like a cookie to me. My healthy eating plan follows the WFPB (whole food plant based) no-oil recommendation described in Forks Over Knives, so there is no Oreo option.
The whole wheat pita bread as well as the spelt pita bread are both very delicious they taste like home made bread. Customer Service is Excellent Beth is awesome!!
I finally have a homemade hummus recipe we like, made with no oil or tahini (I backed off from the half-tahini after hearing Dr. Esselstyn say "not one drop"). The thing is, it needs a generous teaspoon of cumin and of salt, and 1/4 cup of fresh lemon juice, for 2 cans of garbanzos to make up for the lack of oil and tahini. But what to eat them with? Of course, PITA CHIPS. But I can't have EVOO anymore. Ok, just cut the pitas in half, then in fourths, then separate the layers, spread them on a jelly roll pan, and bake at 400 for about 5 minutes. Timer on 5, and watch them. One pita makes 8 chips, or more if you cut them smaller. Super crisp, and delicious. Perfect for those of us trying to prevent or reverse heart disease, with the Whole Food Plant Based lifestyle, a la Forks Over Knives. I did not miss the oil being brushed on the pita at all. This is the only kind of bread we eat!! I order a case at a time.

t[RE]e-Forming: Wood Skyscraper – Recycling Waste In Urban Centers
By: admin | March - 26 - 2020
Jo Jin-Woo, Park Ji-Su, Lee Hui-Yeol, Woo Jong-Sung
New architectural, social and cultural activities through recycling of waste
We are trying to find ways to deal with living and industrial wastes in the world. There have been various attempts, but the method of utilization is not enough, only focusing on the treatment of waste. Only 33% of the 1.3 billion tons of garbage per year are recycled, and another waste is incinerated and buried, polluting nature and the city. We propose a self-sustaining and recycling center that handles the waste of each area of the city based on easy transportation and management by locating the existing suburban treatment facilities in urban areas.
It is installed in urban parks and idle sites with structured process systems. It not only promotes production and consumption activities through recycled products but also attracts citizens with a vertically expandable space and Pilotti based on the absence of recycling, thereby providing architectural possibilities and cultural diversity as well as providing the symbolism of the building itself.
In this building, the waste in the designated area is collected and recycled, and the recycled items made are again given new value. To treat each zone waste, it is suggested to classify the waste into 7 types (paper, plastic, iron, food, wood, glass, concrete). The materials that have undergone sorting and crushing are subjected to a detailed recycling process, and each raw material is largely produced as a recycled product having three uses.
First, it becomes the self-supporting material of a vertically expandable building. Aluminum cans and waste rebar are melted to produce reinforcing bars to be the frames of trusses. Waste concrete is used as building materials to build buildings, such as recycled aggregate, which plays the role of building the foundation of the building. Read the rest of this entry »
Utopianization Skyscraper
Hao Wang, Xiaoyu Cao, Junyi Zhao, Dingyuan Lu
Since Adam and Eve left the Garden of Eden, humans have gradually begun to live in groups. Initially, humans spontaneously formed a settlement of human factors.
With the improvement of productivity and the factors of production, the settlement has developed into a county with a city wall as the boundary. Along with the large increase in population, the elements of human survival exceed the capacity that can be carried by the state and the county, and cities with density requirements appear.
When people got into high-density cities, the stereotyped urban form brings a lot of contradictions to people's production and life. With the increase of volume fraction, where will the steel forests go?
In Koolhaas' 'Delirious New York', in the tradition of the science fiction tropes of Jonathan Swift and Jules Verne, Russian Modernist architects used a portable pool infrastructure to escape Soviet oppression and make it to the United States of America. Meanwhile, the architects of the"Wandering Turtle', Brodsky and Utkin, opted instead to remain in Russia to produce" an escape into the realm of the imagination that ended as a visual commentary on what was wrong with social and physical reality, and how its ills might be remedied".The decisions to relocate or to remain are both basic human rights and can be applied as strategies for the making of utopia. According to the 2006 Stern Review, around 200 million people will be permanently displaced by 2050, through an amalgamation of complex economic, social and political drivers, exacerbated by increasingly unpredictable environmental conditions. Rather than 'fighting'.governments, together with planners and architects, need to envision built environments that embrace the enemy.
Here we explore the possibilities of future urban development. Looking at the path of urban development, the future development of the city will no longer be gradually developed along the original path but will produce a breakthrough change. The city no longer has a standard definition but evolves into a human survival complex.
We have the theory of ancient sages, based on their setting of ideal cities, abstractly design our prototype city. The cinema city has a strong regularity and is a typical circle structure, which is divided into five layers from the inside to the outside. People and functions of different classes are distributed between these five layers.
Although the prototype city you want, because of its perfection, people's lives are not perfect, so spontaneous spatial distortions have arisen. These spatial distortions are rooted in people's lives. They connect the entire city in series, making the city more connected and making the city more vibrant.
When these basic spaces are more and more, they will spread throughout the city, and their appearance will be that the city becomes more integrated, and the space they fill is integrated with the space of the original city, making the city nearly one. Kind of materialization. The circular urban layout naturally has a kind of centripetal, people will involuntarily gather to the center, and the center towers will not be squeezed by the surrounding buildings to become higher and higher.
In the end, the city gradually became a tall tower, and the whole city became our skyscraper. Our utopian skyscrapers.
The above is our vision for the future city that is a skyscraper.
Pension Skyscraper: High-Rise For The Elderly In China
Li Yuang
Liangshan Prefecture has a large number of elderly people. Therefore, the pension skyscraper will be located in Liangshan Qionghai Sea. The site has a large number of water resources and is located in the seashore and mountains. In the design, considering the local sunshine intensity, we want to adopt some methods to reduce the temperature of the building and shield the sunshine. Water has good specific heat capacity and can absorb long and short wave radiation, so it can effectively reduce the temperature and shield the sun.
Water collection can be divided into two ways: collecting rainwater through building platforms: extracting water from the Qionghai Sea through pipeline equipment. Rainwater collected through the platform can be divided into two categories after purification: hot water and cold water. Hot water can supply indoor swimming pools and showers. Coldwater forms waterfalls between the layers of the building, which can effectively shield the incoming sunlight and reduce the indoor temperature. Coldwater can also irrigate roof gardens and some green plants in the house. Read the rest of this entry »
Skyscrapers Forest For Desert Regions
Daffonchio & Associates Architects
The first shelters were built to protect Man from Nature. Human technology has become so powerful that the building of cities should be used to protect Nature from Man. New materials, combined with parametric design will allow us to build ultra-lightweight megastructures. Real-time data mapping combined with AI, will allow hyper-efficient transport and other urban services. We propose a structure that by its shape, size and technology can change the climate.
We propose to solve the increasing reality of desertification through architecture. A cluster of tree-shaped high-rise towers can create a microclimate for a more livable urban environment in desert climates. The idea is to create a 'forest' of towers that are designed to cast permanent shadows on the ground below. The vast surface area of the roof is entirely employed for Photovoltaic and energy harvesting, though a high-rise megastructure which can be scaled indefinitely and change the climate through shape, scale, and technology.

Gaia: Evolving Dharavi Skyscraper
Sheng Fang, Ran Chen, Yingqi Kuang, Yu Zhong, Ling Li
Tuesday, Rainy
I was living in Dharavi, the squatter where my family had been struggling in for decades. I know that life outside is totally different from Dharavi. Gradually, I became unwilling to stay here. I was thirsty for getting rid of here and the life that is full of poverty and hunger. But there was no chance for me to change my life. Until that day……
Some guys showed up in here and announced that they had a theory that may eventually change our lives in the squatter. However, the theory was somehow just like an experiment which sounded totally useless for us. But I knew my chance had come. After all, no gain without paying. So I joined them.
It's really hard to time, building and planning. Through our efforts, a towering dwelling had been built. The residence was not only a place that continued the form of trade in the Dharavi but provided us a new purchaser.
Yet at some point, we can't settle for the scattered stalls, instead, we quested for a broader and more concentrate marketplace in order to trade more conveniently. Therefore, we cooperated with the people who lived in the other two dwellings and built a broad marketplace.
Now, 10 years have passed. More and more people are moving here and coming to the marketplace. I can even find that the dwelling is growing based on what we have built.
Watching the people go by, I can't help to imagine that maybe I can own my own store here in the near future that I would never even try to think of before, which makes me too excited to fall asleep……

Wind Drone Towers For Nomads Of The 21st Century
Kiwon Hong, Namjung Kim
France, South Korea
The nomads of Mongolia still choose to live on wildland in the 21st century despite global urbanization. This is the traditional Mongolian way of life that has existed for over a thousand years. The Mongolians live with their herds scattered across a vast landscape and is considered as the world's second most sparsely populated country. Three million people currently live in Mongolia and it is estimated that 24 to 40 percent of them are living as nomads.
With the rising accessibility of drones today, their use is rapidly expanding to commercial and scientific fields but also they are being increasingly utilized in daily life such as product deliveries, aerial photography, agriculture and surveillance just to mention a few points. Drone technology can bring to nomadic people all the expected benefits of what urban facilities can offer, adequate provision of tools which is essential to keep their thousand years old lifestyle without the need for any new construction of space-consuming horizontal infrastructures/footprints in one of the greenest country in the world. Independently to the raising of the general standards of living, access to modern medicine has been rather difficult for those who have adopted a nomadic lifestyle disconnected from the urban infrastructure and all facilities that come with it. Drones could respond to these critical situations where there is a need for quick access to drugs, blood, and medical technology. Also, for herder families who live in remote areas, far from school, drones could be a perfect solution for better schooling for nomadic children. Read the rest of this entry »
Desalination Skyscraper For Africa
By: admin | October - 24 - 2019
Bartosz Kołodziejczuk, Maciej Marszał, Marta Wróblewska
As I stand here beside you, I reflect on the hardships the African people have suffered. We all know of the harsh climate that haunts this land. Furthermore, history taught us about the brutal era of colonization and about the following years filled with turmoil. Even though Africa was the origin of civilization, it has never had a chance to keep up with the world. The situation is slowly changing and someday we might finally see the true spirit of this continent. However, due to global warming, I fear for the future. It is said that climate changes become more visible, where the climate was challenging in the first place. Cape Town is a city that can confirm this like no other.
Just by analyzing basic statistics, everyone can conclude the situation of the city. A high percentage of adolescent people is characteristic of developing countries. Cape Town's population grew from 2.4 million in 1995 to 4.3 million people in 2018. This tendency can be observed in the vast suburbia regions emerging around the city. Furthermore, significant differences in income add up to the whole image. However setting aside social and economical situation, Cape Town faces a much bigger problem that could determine its future existence. Read the rest of this entry »
Badgir Skyscraper
By: admin | September - 4 - 2019
Adam Fernandez
Badgir (In Persian literal translation: bâd « wind » + gir « catch ») is a traditional element of Persian architecture used from centuries to create natural ventilation and to refresh inside the buildings, more particularly in the living room area. These wind towers are vertical ducts looking as large chimneys allowing to capture and to direct the winds towards the interior of buildings. We can see them in important quantity in the desert area of the center of the country.
The interior of the tower is vertically separated into several ducts to allow the circulation air descending flow (bringing freshness) and air ascending flows (expelling hot air) currents thanks to the differential atmospheric pressures created.
The concept is simple: reuse this traditional process by integrating turbines to generate electricity and to turn this tower into a wind turbine. Higher is the tower, easier it's to capture air flows (5km/h as minimum) and stronger will be the pressure. Read the rest of this entry »
Fully Automated Hydroponic Skyscraper
Tony Leung
In the age of "Level 5" (fully automated) autonomous driving, a vehicle (e.g. Toyota E-Palette) can be adopted as Mobile Greenhouse, traveling between farmers and buyers directly.
These vehicles can be charged at vertical "docks" equipped with PV charger and drainage system when idle. The best dock available will be selected by the central computer and directed by GPS automatically to suit solar demand of different crops. The "dock" becomes an ever-changing organism with its own 'metabolism'.
The recent development in hydroponic technology makes vertical planting possible. Not only farmers but enthusiast or family can hire or own a mobile greenhouse for weekend farming. The docking ports are connected by double spiral ramps; car lift and staircase are provided for services and pedestrian circulations. Read the rest of this entry »
Mediterraneo Skyscraper
By: admin | August - 29 - 2019
Spyridon Koutantzis
Concept & Context
The project's name – Mediterraneo – derives from its geographical namesake, the Mediterranean Sea, thus signifying a search for locality in an everchanging place. It studies the past of a rich in history area, in the effort to define its future. While doing so, it attempts to cope with the growing "temporal rental housing crisis" the European South is facing with an increasing number of people each year facing eviction, unable to find a home, in a market that favors visitors over inhabitants.
The process of form-finding is a constant dialogue between the past and the future. It studies the vernacular architecture and transcribes its vital elements in the vertical axis. The insular staircase, the small opening, the variability of the pre-industrial built environment, the social interaction. All of the integral parts of the Mediterranean culture are being reimagined in a futuristic way that respects the landscape and creates the place.
The program for the proposed tower is rather simple, not unlike that one of a village. It consists of a well-defined entrance area, a vertical promenade adjacent to which lay the habitable space and a social hub. While the floor plans are indicatory, the structural system offers to the building unique flexibility in terms of use, allowing a bottom-up approach for that matter. On top, lies a lifted social interaction space (plaza), getting abundant light from a glass dome and allowing people to enjoy a scenic view of the surrounding landscape. The boundaries between private and public spaces are blurred, since the promenade itself acts as a daily interaction space as well, communicating with the "front stoop" urban typology.

Standing up for what you believe in is admirable, but is a controversial campaign worth it? Do you run the risk of alienating your audience or do those views and comments bring a return for the brands that stand up and stand out?
Let's take a look at some campaigns that recently made the headlines for their content, whether intentional or not and discuss how brands get people talking.
The Advertising Standards Agency (ASA) received 35 complaints in reaction to Sainsbury's Christmas 2018 advert created by Wieden + Kennedy.
Despite the outrage – or perhaps because of it – the advert has been viewed over 6 million times since it was published on the 11th November 2018.
Concerned parents contacted the ASA arguing that "plug boy" would encourage children to put their fingers in wall sockets. Sainsbury's haven't made a public comment to defend their advert and the ASA has yet to announce their decision.
Whether or not Sainsbury's intended any alarm by the advert is unlikely, but this is a great example of unexpected fuore boosting views as the public rolled up their sleeves in defense of the supermarket chain, especially on Twitter.
Sometimes brands make what is seen to be an overtly political statement, which can lead to much debate.
In November 2018, Iceland's #NoPalmOilChristmas was 'banned' from UK TV by Clearcast, the body which approves ads for broadcast on TV. Featuring Rang-tan the orangutan, Iceland's advert was commissioned by Greenpeace and their agency, Mother. The animated story tells of an orangutan who goes to live with a little girl after his forest home has been destroyed by the palm oil trade.
Rather than the content being political, Clearcast said that Greenpeace as an organisation had been unable to prove that they are not a "political advertiser" and therefore the advert breached political advertising rules.
Although fewer people will have seen the video than Iceland may have initially hoped via a TV campaign, the reaction to the 90 second film online and on social media has been huge.
The video has been viewed almost 6 million times on YouTube and over 15 million times on Twitter after celebrities such as Stephen Fry and James Corden shared the clip. The advert has sparked intense debate and a Change.org petition to get the ad released on TV has attracted more than 670,000 signatures.
Some brands frequently use their status to raise awareness on current issues. For example, Nike is no stranger to controversial campaigns. In 2018, Nike made Colin Kaepernick the face of its latest ad campaign. In America, Kaepernick is known for kneeling during the national anthem before NFL games, which is said to be a reference to police brutality against unarmed black Americans.
The advert divided opinions with some people declaring that they would boycott the brand and even Donald Trump criticised the sportswear company for "disrespecting the American flag." However, their gamble is said to have turned into a win for Nike as it is reported that sales increased by $6 billion after the release of the ad.
Sail have written before about a few of our favourite brands who are prepared to stand up for what they believe in, such as: Sport England, Lynx and Heineken. Similarly, we work with clients who have a social message they want to convey such as Curious Festival, an annual festival of immersive queer arts and culture looking to encourages dialogue on relevant social issues.
So should brands be using shock tactics to convey their message?
Whilst we do not advocate offensive or discriminatory practices, we do feel that challenging the status quo is an effective way to raise awareness about social issues. Crucially, if a brand is willing to stand up for something that is close to their heart, then it must come from a genuine place and not appear to be a money making ploy or jumping on a bandwagon.
For example, before Rang-tan hit our screens, Iceland became the first UK supermarket to commit to remove palm oil as an ingredient in 100% of its own-label food by the end of 2018. This pledge is what ultimately will make the difference between a 'controversial' advert with a cute animal and raising brand awareness and loyalty.
As Cassandra Duffy said, "the beauty of standing up for your rights is that others see you standing and stand up as well." Her point highlights how important it is for brands not to push forward on a crusade that alienates their audience, but to engage with their customers and champion causes that suit their demographic.
Shock tactics may create temporary buzz, but brand loyalty is more likely to be formed via an audience that sees a company standing up again and again for an issue that matters to them.
– Find your voice, be authentic: don't be afraid to share your story!
In a recent blog we shared why and how it is vital to keep the customer at the heart of everything you do as a business. Having a clear understanding on your audience profile – their likes, dislikes, habits and aspirations – will help you to identify the social issues close to their heart.
We are advocates of being bold and challenging social norms, not just for the sake of being offensive. Done successfully, a 'controversial' campaign will raise brand awareness and keep people talking.
Are you ready to show the world what you believe in? Tell your story, and if you need help-we would love to chat.

Is the Karabakh conflict resolved, or not resolved?
Under the firm chairmanship of the Russian president Vladimir Putin, the leaders of Armenia and Azerbaijan met yesterday in Moscow for the first time since the war in Karabakh in the autumn.
Discussions focused on issues emerging from the 10 November declaration which stopped the fighting, and particularly on the clauses related to the restoration of transport links.
In comments to the media after their four hour meeting, both Aliyev and Pashinyan thanked Putin for the initiative to organize the trilateral meeting, as well as, in general, for efforts to resolve the conflict in Nagorno-Karabakh and restore stability and security in the region. According to the President of Azerbaijan, the very fact of the negotiations suggests that the parties to the conflict are "set for a result", to "draw a line" under the events of September-November 2020.
According to Aliyev, the joint statement on the ceasefire is being carried out successfully, "the Russian peacekeeping mission is doing its job effectively, and for two months, with the exception of minor incidents, there were no serious reasons for concern." All this, according to the President of Azerbaijan, instills confidence that "the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict is in the past" and we need to think about the future, "about how to live together in the neighborhood."
In turn, Pashinyan believes that "this conflict has not yet been resolved." "We have managed to secure the ceasefire, but there are still a lot of issues that must be resolved," he said, naming the status of Nagorno-Karabakh as one of such topics. Among the most painful, Pashinyan also referred to humanitarian issues and the problem of exchange of prisoners of war, noting that this point of the November joint statement of the leaders "is not fully implemented." The Prime Minister of Armenia, however, expressed the hope that the parties "will be able to come to a concrete decision in the shortest possible time."
So it seems that there is no agreement as to whether the conflict is resolved or not. Azerbaijan is willing to accept the status quo de facto, although it still claims those parts of Karabakh still under the control of Armenians. For the Armenians the status of Karabakh remains an important issue since they hope that they can salvage something after their military defeat, through political negotiations in the framework of the OSCE Minsk Group.
Everyone is excited about the prospect of opening up the transport corridors - something which can be extremely important for the future of the region. But there is a danger some of those involved may get ahead of themselves. Two months after the end of hostilities issues related to prisoners and missing persons remain unresolved. There are also many details to be worked, all of which can easily escalate into a crisis. The meeting in Moscow was a positive step, and once more showed Russia's commitment to seeing this process through, but regardless if it is a conflict or note, Karabakh will remain a contentious issue for many years to come.

About the Book: The little town of Castle Rock, Maine has witnessed some strange events and unusual visitors over the years, but there is one story that has never been told... until now. There are three ways up to Castle View from the town of Castle Rock: Route 117, Pleasant Road, and the Suicide Stairs. Every day in the summer of 1974 twelve-year-old Gwendy Peterson has taken the stairs, which are held by strong (if time-rusted) iron bolts and zig-zag up the cliffside. At the top of the stairs, Gwendy catches her breath and listens to the shouts of the kids on the playground. From a bit farther away comes the chink of an aluminum bat hitting a baseball as the Senior League kids practice for the Labor Day charity game. One day, a stranger calls to Gwendy: "Hey, girl. Come on over here for a bit. We ought to palaver, you and me." On a bench in the shade sits a man in black jeans, a black coat like for a suit, and a white shirt unbuttoned at the top. On his head is a small neat black hat. The time will come when Gwendy has nightmares about that hat...

TUSCALOOSA — Alabama must settle for a No. 1 seed in the NIT, and a matchup with a team coached by a former rival.
The Crimson Tide wasn't among the 68 teams making the NCAA tournament Sunday, but instead will host former Auburn coach Cliff Ellis and Coastal Carolina on Tuesday.
Alabama (21-11) won the Southeastern Conference Western Division and went 12-4 in league play but struggled early in the season in nonconference games and had a relatively low RPI hovering around 80.
Alabama coach Anthony Grant and players gathered at Coleman Coliseum to watch the selection show, but left without hearing their names called.
"Obviously there was disappointment," Grant said. "Certainly we had hopes that we'd be able to get an invitation but obviously that didn't work out so there was disappointment.
Alabama is 16-0 at home this season.
Coastal Carolina (28-5) lost to UNC Asheville in the championship game of the Big South Conference tournament.
The winner of this game plays either New Mexico or UTEP. The date and site haven't been set.
Grant didn't gripe about both his former team — Virginia Commonwealth — and fellow SEC team Georgia getting NCAA invitations. The Tide beat Georgia to end the regular season and again in the quarterfinals of the league tournament but had a lower RPI.
"I really don't look at other teams," Grant said. "Obviously the committee has got a very tough process that they have to go through. All the speculation all along was that we would be one of the last teams under consideration one way or the other.
