Kathmandu, Nepal, May 17, 2010—IFC, a member of the World Bank Group, will provide a trade finance facility of up to $5 million to Nepal Investment Bank that will enable the bank to enhance its support for local enterprises and help boost international trade opportunities.
IFC's trade finance facility will provide Nepal Investment Bank with risk coverage in a difficult market and access to a global network that will help grow its trade finance business. The network facilitates transactions in challenging markets, promotes competitive financing, and builds correspondent bank relationships with new institutions at low risk.
Nepal Investment Bank's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Prithvi Bahadur Pande and IFC Resident Representative in Nepal, Rajeev Gopal, signed the Memorandum of Understanding that will help boost Nepal's international trade opportunities.
"By joining IFC's Global Trade Finance Program, we will be recognized by a wider range of correspondent banks globally. It will become easier for us and our clients to complete international transactions," said Deepak Kumar Shrestha, Head of International Banking and Trade Finance at Nepal Investment Bank.
The global economic crisis and reduced trade financing had posed a particular economic risk to low- and middle-income countries. IFC, working with its partners, has sharply increased its trade financing efforts over the past two years.
Prior to this facility, IFC has supported three other banks with trade finance in Nepal. Since 1975, IFC has committed over $80 million in nine projects in Nepal. Currently, IFC has an exposure of over $35 million in the country in equity, debt, and guarantees, with exposure to private infrastructure exceeding $28 million. In FY09, IFC committed more than $10 million in new investments in Nepal.

IFC, a member of the World Bank Group, creates opportunity for people to escape poverty and improve their lives. We foster sustainable economic growth in developing countries by supporting private sector development, mobilizing capital for private enterprise, and providing advisory and risk mitigation services to businesses and governments. Our new investments totaled $14.5 billion in fiscal 2009, helping channel capital into developing countries during the financial crisis. For more information, visit www.ifc.org.
Nepal Investment Bank has 39 branches and 60 ATMs (150 ATMs including consortium member ATMs) in Nepal. It is the largest private sector bank in the country and has market share of about 8 percent in terms of deposit base and 10 percent of total advances as of mid-July 2009. The bank's leadership in underwriting international finance transactions is well recognized. For more information, visit www.nibl.com.np.

Please note tuition is an approved use for the grant if the applicant can demonstrate how it directly impacts their sport participation.

Chase Iron Eyes: Help protect a sacred site stolen from tribes
chase iron eyes
Posted: Friday, August 24, 2012
"Right now, The Oceti Sakowin (comprising the Lakota, Dakota, and Nakota People, and also referred to as the Great Sioux Nation) is battling against the clock to save Pe' Sla, one of our most sacred sites. Pe' Sla, located in the center of the Black Hills of South Dakota, is considered to be the heart of everything that is by the Lakota, Dakota and Nakota people. Besides playing an essential role in our creation story and star knowledge, ceremonies essential to our culture and beliefs, that Tribal elders and spiritual leaders explain help keep the Universe in harmony, must be conducted at Pe' Sla.
Pe' Sla is currently owned by the Reynolds family. On August 25, 1,942.66 acres, sold in five tracts of land, will be auctioned off to the highest bidder. Once sold, it is highly likely that Pe' Sla will be opened up for development, with the state of South Dakota building an expansive paved road directly through it.
Although we believe our sacred places were taken illegally by the United States government, LastRealindians, Inc. is collaborating with the Rosebud Sioux Tribe to centralize fundraising to save Pe 'Sla by uniting Oceti Sakowin Tribes in an unprecedented, collective effort. Together, we are attempting to buy as much of Pe' Sla as possible, to save it from destruction, thereby ensuring that future generations of Lakota, Dakota, Nakota, as well as other Tribal Nations that consider the Black Hills holy, will continue to have access to this vital sacred site to practice their faith on its ceremonial grounds in its natural, pristine state."

On Beyond Pesach!
Most of us are focused on getting to Pesach at this time of year. We are cleaning, shopping, cooking, and preparing for company with long task lists to accomplish. Our goal is coming to seder night with a chometz-free home, to tell the story of our redemption from Egypt and our formation as a holy nation with our generations at our sides. Our goal is to perform the mitzvos of the night together with grandparents and grandchildren.
At Home With The Family For Pesach
So you are doing Pesach the traditional way - at home with the generations. You've cleaned the house, taken out your Pesach utensils, cooked the traditional dishes, and prepared for the guests, both family and friends. The table is set with fancy accoutrements, and new holiday clothing is ready.

The Virtues of St Gorgonia
In honor of the Annunciation to the Most Pure Mother of God on March 25th, or Lady Day as it is also known (for a sermon about this great feast day: https://www.holytrinityorthodox.com/iconoftheday/los/March/25-01.htm), we offer a couple of essays this week on women. Today is the second: the funeral oration of St Gregory the Theologian (+389) for his sister St Gorgonia (+372). We hope all Southern women (and men!) will be spurred on to greater virtue by the recounting of St Gorgonia's life in the oration of her brother. Here is just a part of it:
11. . . . Of her prudence and piety no adequate account can be given, nor many examples found besides those of her natural and spiritual parents, who were her only models, and of whose virtue she in no wise fell short, with this single exception most readily admitted, that they, as she both knew and acknowledged, were the source of her goodness, and the root of her own illumination. What could be keener than the intellect of her who was recognized as a common adviser not only by those of her family, those of the same people and of the one fold, but even by all men round about, who treated her counsels and advice as a law not to be broken? What more sagacious than her words? What more prudent than her silence? Having mentioned silence, I will proceed to that which was most characteristic of her, most becoming to women, and most serviceable to these times. Who had a fuller knowledge of the things of God, both from the Divine oracles, and from her own understanding? But who was less ready to speak, confining herself within the due limits of women? Moreover, as was the bounden duty of a woman who has learned true piety, and that which is the only honourable object of insatiate desire, who, as she, adorned temples with offerings, both others and this one, which will hardly, now she is gone, be so adorned again? Or rather, who so presented herself to God as a living temple? Who again paid such honor to Priests, especially to him who was her fellow soldier and teacher of piety, whose are the good seeds, and the pair of children consecrated to God.
12. Who opened her house to those who live according to God with a more graceful and bountiful welcome? And, which is greater than this, who bade them welcome with such modesty and godly greetings? Further, who showed a mind more unmoved in sufferings? Whose soul was more sympathetic to those in trouble? Whose hand more liberal to those in want? I should not hesitate to honour her with the words of Job: Her door was opened to all comers; the stranger did not lodge in the street. She was eyes to the blind, feet to the lame, a mother to the orphan.7 Why should I say more of her compassion to widows, than that its fruit which she obtained was, never to be called a widow herself? Her house was a common abode to all the needy of her family; and her goods no less common to all in need than their own belonged to each. She hath dispersed abroad and given to the poor,8 and according to the infallible truth of the Gospel, she laid up much store in the wine-presses above, and oftentimes entertained Christ in the person of those whose benefactress she was. And, best of all, there was in her no unreal profession, but in secret she cultivated piety before Him who seeth secret things. Everything she rescued from the ruler of this world, everything she transferred to the safe garners. Nothing did she leave behind to earth, save her body. She bartered everything for the hopes above: the sole wealth she left to her children was the imitation of her example, and emulation of her merits.
13. But amid these tokens of incredible magnanimity, she did not surrender her body to luxury, and unrestrained pleasures of the appetite, that raging and tearing dog, as though presuming upon her acts of benevolence, as most men do, who redeem their luxury by compassion to the poor, and instead of healing evil with good, receive evil as a recompense for their good deeds. Nor did she, while subduing her dust9 by fasting, leave to another the medicine of hard lying; nor, while she found this of spiritual service, was she less restrained in sleep than anyone else; nor, while regulating her life on this point as if freed from the body, did she lie upon the ground, when others were passing the night erect, as the most mortified men struggle to do. Nay in this respect she was seen to surpass not only women, but the most devoted of men, by her intelligent chanting of the psalter, her converse with, and unfolding and apposite recollection of, the Divine oracles, her bending of her knees which had grown hard and almost taken root in the ground, her tears to cleanse her stains with contrite heart and spirit of lowliness, her prayer rising heavenward, her mind freed from wandering in rapture; in all these, or in any one of them, is there man or woman who can boast of having surpassed her? Besides, it is a great thing to say, but it is true, that while she was zealous in her endeavour after some points of excellence, of others she was the paragon: of some she was the discoverer, in others she excelled. And if in some single particular she was rivalled, her superiority consists in her complete grasp of all. Such was her success in all points, as none else attained even in a moderate degree in one: to such perfection did she attain in each particular, that any one might of itself have supplied the place of all.
14. O untended body, and squalid garments, whose only flower is virtue! O soul, clinging to the body, when reduced almost to an immaterial state through lack of food; or rather, when the body had been mortified by force, even before dissolution, that the soul might attain to freedom, and escape the entanglements of the senses! O nights of vigil, and psalmody, and standing which lasts from one day to another! O David, whose strains never seem tedious to faithful souls! O tender limbs, flung upon the earth and, contrary to nature, growing hard! O fountains of tears, sowing in affliction that they might reap in joy.10 O cry in the night, piercing the clouds and reaching unto Him that dwelleth in the heavens! O fervour of spirit, waxing bold in prayerful longings against the dogs of night, and frosts and rain, and thunders, and hail, and darkness! O nature of woman overcoming that of man in the common struggle for salvation, and demonstrating that the distinction between male and female is one of body not of soul! O Baptismal purity, O soul, in the pure chamber of thy body, the bride of Christ! O bitter eating! O Eve mother of our race and of our sin! O subtle serpent, and death, overcome by her self-discipline! O self-emptying of Christ, and form of a servant, and sufferings, honoured by her mortification!
15. Oh! how am I to count up all her traits, or pass over most of them without injury to those who know them not? Here however it is right to subjoin the rewards of her piety, for indeed I take it that you, who knew her life well, have long been eager and desirous to find in my speech not only things present, or her joys yonder, beyond the conception and hearing and sight of man, but also those which the righteous Rewarder bestowed upon her here: a matter which often tends to the edification of unbelievers, who from small things attain to faith in those which are great, and from things which are seen to those which are not seen. I will mention then some facts which are generally notorious, others which have been from most men kept secret; and that because her Christian principle made a point of not making a display of her [Divine] favours. You know how her maddened mules ran away with her carriage, and unfortunately overturned it, how horribly she Was dragged along, and seriously injured, to the scandal of unbelievers at the permission of such accidents to the righteous, and how quickly their unbelief was corrected: for, all crushed and bruised as she was, in bones and limbs, alike in those exposed and in those out of sight, she would have none of any physician, except Him Who had permitted it; both because she shrunk from the inspection and the hands of men, preserving, even in suffering, her modesty, and also awaiting her justification from Him Who allowed this to happen, so that she owed her preservation to none other than to Him: with the result that men were no less struck by her unhoped-for recovery than by her misfortune, and concluded that the tragedy had happened for her glorification through sufferings, the suffering being human, the recovery superhuman, and giving a lesson to those who come after, exhibiting in a high degree faith in the midst of suffering, and patience under calamity, but in a still higher degree the kindness of God to them that are such as she. For to the beautiful promise to the righteous "though he fall, he shall not be utterly broken,"11 has been added one more recent, "though he be utterly broken, he shall speedily be raised up and glorified."12 For if her misfortune was unreasonable, her recovery was extraordinary, so that health soon stole away the injury, and the cure became more celebrated than the blow.
16. O remarkable and wonderful disaster! O injury more noble than security! O prophecy, "He hath smitten, and He will bind us up, and revive us, and after three days He will raise us up,"13 portending indeed, as it did, a greater and more sublime event, yet no less applicable to Gorgonia's sufferings! This then, notorious to all, even to those afar off, for the wonder spread to all, and the lesson was stored up in the tongues and ears of all, with the other wonderful works and powers of God. . . .

Women without Breasts
In honor of the Annunciation to the Most Pure Mother of God on March 25th, or Lady Day as it is also known (for a sermon about this great feast day: https://www.holytrinityorthodox.com/iconoftheday/los/March/25-01.htm), we offer a couple of essays this week on women. Today is the first.
By Paul H. Yarbrough
"We make men without chests and expect from them virtue and enterprise. We laugh at honor and are shocked to find traitors in our midst." C.S. Lewis
"Now, we build women without breasts and expect milk and kindness. We laugh at chastity and are surprised to find rapists in our midst." Paul H. Yarbrough
Harvey Weinstein will probably be rehabilitated and come back from whatever plush, sex rehab twelve-step program that his plenteous, Hollywood treasure will allow. After that, who knows what lies ahead for the future conduct of this man of the artistic world. He will probably get an award at next years' Academy Awards or Golden Globe or whatever of the many mutual-admiration-award-love-ins these morally dark regents of stage and screen (now, perhaps, stage and scream) create for themselves. Possibly the "I am Sorry Award," because he will finally confess that he, himself, was abused when a child.
One can almost write the script (I'm sure he knows many fiction writers): "I just didn't get it. But my soul had been darkened because of the era when sexual abuse was swept under the carpet by the world which was governed by the masculine power structure led by the Western Church not allowing us to be egalitarian mutants which is what God really intended in His creation. We are all guilty of what I have done because our parents taught us so . . . ad nauseam, don't blame me."
I italicized "man" above for emphasis, not because the liberated women of the world despise its use but to deemphasize his (Weinstein's) merits. As well, the sadness that so much was done to so many women without a single man (and there were many who knew) taking such an animal in tow and whacking the snot out of him. I heard that manly Brad Pitt went to Harvey and verbally suggested that Weinstein's conduct was unacceptable (or some such timid twaddle). At least little Brad took some action, pitifully little as it was, while there do not seem to be any other reports of anyone smacking the crap out of Harvey for his conduct.
Someone should have reported Harvey's conduct to Hillary or Gloria earlier, as either of them is more manly than most in Hollywood (or Congress for that matter). Or even better Lois Lerner, who could have financially gelded him with complete immunity.
At the fall, in Eden, the woman having been tempted, then tempted the man. The result being both were expelled from the Garden, after the woman is stricken as a subordinate to man. He and she had not equal before (any more than apples and oranges are equal) but now she was under him to the point of a lesser being. Adam, having lost the life of eternity and perfect senses now must rule (from imperfection) over his woman. Having taken on the burden of sin, Adam (man) and his seed are now permeated with the temptations of seduction, abuse, rape and all that might go with superiority over another in a sinful world. Even though God had left him with a conscience, Satan is more powerful. Man, and woman, now live through sinful personalities.
Now, as we say today, fast forward to Bethlehem a few thousand years later. God came to man in the image in which He had created man, His own; though now a savior, Jesus Christ. The New Adam.
At the age of 30, Jesus begins his ministry and through the four gospels much is revealed of the life and conduct of our Lord—not the least of which, early on, His own temptation. Unlike the first Adam, He won the battle.
Throughout these same gospels, we are introduced and edified regarding the twelve apostles he chose, their work, their habits, and their conduct. We are given specifics on these twelve, though less information on dozens, even hundreds of disciples (followers). However, some of the most beautiful stories are of his women friends: Mary, Anna, Martha et al from the beginning of his ministry until his execution and resurrection where Mary Magdalene first discovered Him missing from the tomb. And one of the most captivating stories is His divine approach to the Samaritan woman at the well.
Jesus (God) has a revealed relationship with both creations, male and female, with the humanism of seduction or disparagement not to be borne by either. And, they are instructed and loved in the nonegalitarian milieu of "apples and oranges."
If we are going to tear down monuments, we really need to fill in space. I suggest obliterating the Washington Monument and erecting (no pun intended) a monument, in the tradition of Mount Rushmore or Stone Mountain, as a multi-stature replication of Bill Clinton, Bill Cosby, Harvey Weinstein, and Jack the Ripper. These are men whom N.O.W. can be proud of. A group that pigeons would poop on with pride (you go, boy).
But, if this is the level of manhood salutation, which women must be glorified? Perhaps Madonna and Lady Gaga, built in marble, joining hands, and, supplanting The Statue of Liberty with The Statue of Eves.

Offsite Post: 'Is War Necessary to End Abortion in the States?'
Since the abortion/infanticide debate has begun to rage more intensely lately, the question is being asked by various and sundry, 'What kind of nation do we want America to be?'
A better question would be, 'Is America a nation at all?'
In the States, there have generally been two views on this question. The first is that the entity referred to as 'America' is not a unified nation-state but a voluntary confederation of independent States, each of which may leave the union at any time and resume its life as a separate nation, unhindered by any of her sister States. The second is that America is 'one nation, indivisible' and that the States are ultimately subservient to whatever decrees come out of Washington City.
The way one answers the second question will determine how one answers the first; the conception one has of the States and the union will shape the policies one desires to implement at the 'national' level.
What is the answer to the second question, then? Is America an indivisible nation or a voluntary confederation? The reigning idea is that America is one nation, and the States, cities, counties, etc. all owe their existence and allegiance to the Great Union, whose collective life is centered in Washington City. This idea has been promoted by influential men through the years: John Adams, Alexander Hamilton, John Marshall, Joseph Story, Daniel Webster, Abraham Lincoln, etc.
But it is undoubtedly false. One of Virginia's leading men prior to the War, Abel Upshur (1790-1844), gives ample testimony to this in reply to Joseph Story's Commentaries on the Constitution of the United States. On the idea of there being one homogenous American people, he writes,
In order to constitute "one people," in a political sense, of the inhabitants of different countries, something more is necessary than that they should owe a common allegiance to a common sovereign. Neither is it sufficient that, in some particulars, they are bound alike, by laws which that sovereign may prescribe; nor does the question depend on geographical relations. The inhabitants of different islands may be one people, and those of contiguous countries may be, as we know they in fact are, different nations. By the term "people," as here used, we do not mean merely a number of persons. We mean by it a political corporation, the members of which owe a common allegiance to a common sovereignty, and do not owe any allegiance which is not common; who are bound by no laws except such as that sovereignty may prescribe; who owe to one another reciprocal obligations; who possess common political interests; who are liable to [ *15 ]*common political duties; and who can exert no sovereign power except in the name of the whole. Anything short of this, would be an imperfect definition of that political corporation which we call a "people."
Tested by this definition, the people of the American colonies were, in no conceivable sense, "one people." They owed, indeed, allegiance to the British king, as the head of each colonial government, and as forming a part thereof; but this allegiance was exclusive, in each colony, to its own government, and, consequently, to the king as the head thereof, and was not a common allegiance of the people of all the colonies, to a common head.[1] These colonial governments were clothed with the sovereign power of making laws, and of enforcing obedience to them, from their own people. The people of one colony owed no allegiance to the government of any other colony, and were not bound by its laws. The colonies had no common legislature, no common treasury, no common military power, no common judicatory. The people of one colony were not liable to pay taxes to any other colony, nor to bear arms in its defence; they had no right to vote in its elections; no influence nor control in its municipal government, no interest in its municipal institutions. There was no prescribed form by which the colonies could act together, for any purpose whatever; they were not known as "one people" in any one function of government. Although they were all, alike, dependencies of the British crown, yet, even in the action of the parent country, in regard to them, they were recognized as separate and distinct. They were established at different times, and each under an authority from the crown, which applied to itself alone. They were not even alike in their organization. Some were provincial, some proprietary, and some charter governments. Each derived its form of government from the particular instrument establishing it, or from assumptions of power acquiesced in by the crown, without any connexion with, or relation to, any other. They stood upon the same footing, in every respect, with other British colonies, with nothing to distinguish their relation either to the parent country or to one another. The charter of any one of them might have been destroyed, without in any manner affecting the rest. In point of fact, the charters of nearly all of them were altered, from time to time, and the whole character [ *16 ]*of their government changed. These changes were made in each colony for itself alone, sometimes by its own action, sometimes by the power and authority of the crown; but never by the joint agency of any other colony, and never with reference to the wishes or demands of any other colony. Thus they were separate and distinct in their creation; separate and distinct in the changes and modifications of their governments, which were made from time to time; separate and distinct in political functions, in political rights, and in political duties.
The provincial government of Virginia was the first established. The people of Virginia owed allegiance to the British king, as the head of their own local government. The authority of that government was confined within certain geographical limits, known as Virginia, and all who lived within those limits were "one people." When the colony of Plymouth was subsequently settled, were the people of that colony "one" with the people of Virginia? When, long afterwards, the proprietary government of Pennsylvania was established, were the followers of William Penn "one" with the people of Plymouth and Virginia? If so, to which government was their allegiance due? Virginia had a government of her own, Pennsylvania a government of her own, and Massachusetts a government of her own. The people of Pennsylvania could not be equally bound by the laws of all three governments, because those laws might happen to conflict; they could not owe the duties of citizenship to all of them alike, because they might stand in hostile relations to one another. Either, then, the government of Virginia, which originally extended over the whole territory, continued to be supreme therein, (subject only to its dependence on the British crown,) or else its supremacy was yielded to the new government. Every one knows that this last was the case; that within the territory of the new government the authority of that government alone prevailed. How then could the people of this new government of Pennsylvania be said to be "one" with the people of Virginia, when they were not citizens of Virginia, owed her no allegiance and no duty, and when their allegiance to another government might place them in the relation of enemies of Virginia?
In farther illustration of this point, let us suppose that some one of the colonies had refused to unite in the declaration of independence; what relation would it then have held to the others? Not having disclaimed its allegiance to the British crown, it would still have continued to be a British colony, subject to the authority of the parent [ *17 ]*country, in all respects as before. Could the other colonies have rightfully compelled it to unite with them in their revolutionary purposes, on the ground that it was part and parcel of the "one people," known as the people of the colonies? No such right was ever claimed, or dreamed of, and it will scarcely be contended for now, in the face of the known history of the time. Such recusant colony would have stood precisely as did the Canadas, and every other part of the British empire. The colonies, which had declared war, would have considered its people as enemies, but would not have had a right to treat them as traitors, or as disobedient citizens resisting their authority. To what purpose, then, were the people of the colonies "one people," if, in a case so important to the common welfare, there was no right in all the people together, to coerce the members of their own community to the performance of a common duty?
It is thus apparent that the people of the colonies were not "one people," as to any purpose involving allegiance on the one hand, or protection on the other. What, then, I again ask, are the "many purposes" to which the author alludes? It is certainly incumbent on him who asserts this identity, against the inferences most naturally deducible from the historical facts, to show at what time, by what process, and for what purposes, it was effected. He claims too much consideration for his personal authority, when he requires his readers to reject the plain information of history, in favor of his bare assertion. The charters of the colonies prove no identity between them, but the reverse; and it has already been shown that this identity is not the necessary result of their common relation to the mother country. By what other means they came to be "one," in any intelligible and political sense, it remains for the author to explain.
--A Brief Enquiry into the Nature and Character of our Federal Government, ch. II, https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/A_Brief_Enquiry_into_the_Nature_and_Character_of_our_Federal_Government/II
It being the case, therefore, that there is no single American people and thus no single American nation either, it begs another question: Is the current federal constitution a fitting instrument with which to govern a pluri-national confederation of States? And again we must answer in the negative.
The current constitution of union, written in 1787, is a chimera, incorporating both the one people, one nation doctrine and the independent States doctrine. It was thus doomed from the outset to be unstable and to cause antagonism amongst the parties governed by its institutions.
But we ought to speak more plainly on this point. The 1787 charter was not a blundering attempt at a middle way. It was in fact a counter-revolution waged against the decentralized government of the Articles of Confederation that was set up among the States in 1781 as an attempt at union after declaring their independence from the British Empire:

TomTom NV is a Dutch manufacturer of automotive navigation systems, including both stand-alone units and software for personal digital assistants and mobile telephones. It is the leading manufacturer of navigation systems in Europe. TomTom's customer service is located in Amsterdam, Netherlands. TomTom was a follow-up of Palmtop Software, founded by Peter-Frans Pauwels, Pieter Geelen, Harold Goddijn and Corinne Vigreux in 1991.
On June 11, 2012, at an event for Apple's iOS 6 preview, TomTom was announced as the main mapping data provider for Apple's revamped iOS 6 "Maps" app replacing long time provider Google Maps.


Previously hacked exchange, Coincheck, has reopened new account signups, however, strict KYC checks are required.
Only bitcoin (BTC), ethereum classic (ETC), bitcoin cash (BCH), and litecoin (LTC) deposits and trading are allowed at present.
Monex Group, a Japanese brokerage firm that acquired previously hacked digital asset exchange, Coincheck, (in April) announced that the crypto trading platform has reopened new account signups.
Users will also be allowed to engage in limited trading starting from Tuesday (October 30th).
Monex Group's announcement further noted that users may purchase and deposit a select few cryptocurrencies on Coincheck. These include bitcoin (BTC), bitcoin cash (BCH), ethereum classic (ETC), and litecoin (LTC).
When Monex acquired Coincheck for $33.5 million in April, bitcoin had been the only digital currency that users were allowed to trade on the hacked platform. As covered, Coincheck accounts for most of Monex Group's crypto-related business.
However, the operational costs associated with managing Coincheck after the acquisition have resulted in losses of about $7.5 million. According to the Monex Group, the exchange has not been profitable because of the damage caused when it was hacked in January. At present, Monex Group has 1,025 employees and around 15 percent of them are focused on the crypto segment of its business.
Due to the security breach, which resulted in $534 million in NEM tokens being stolen, Monex's management team has had to spend considerable time, money, and effort in order to improve Coincheck's internal security infrastructure.
This is also a requirement as Japan's financial regulator, the Financial Service Agency (FSA), has increased its scrutiny of local digital asset exchanges due to several local exchanges being hacked.
In its announcement, the Monex Group also noted that in the future, it may allow Coincheck users to trade ethereum (ETH), ripple (XRP), nem (XEM), lisk (LSK), and factom (FCT). However, the exchange will only add more coins "if the services are confirmed safe and become ready to be offered", the notice stated.
Users currently looking to open an account on the Coincheck trading platform will have to submit identity documents in order to pass know-your-customer (KYC) checks. This is strictly enforced by Japan's self-regulatory body, the Virtual Currency Association (JVCEA) - which was recently authorized by the FSA to create and enforce regulatory policies as they would apply to local digital asset exchanges.

Q: Use of clear in java.lang.ref.Reference class ReferenceQueue q = new ReferenceQueue();
Reference r = q.remove();
r.clear();

I see that the java doc says that the clear method clears this reference object. I don't understand the meaning of this. Does this clear from the memory and thus in other words the object has been garbage collected?

A: java.lang.Reference is a base class for few special references which are treated in special way by garbage collection.
Under certain circumstances garbage collector may push reference object in it's reference queue (reference may be queued only once in a lifetime).
clear() method can be used to suppress special handling (and thus additional work for garbage collector). If reference object is already in queue it doesn't make sense to clear it, it is already cleared by garbage collector.
This project on github has an implementation of resource management using PhantomReferences made for educational purpose. clear() is used if resource is disposed explicitly to avoid extra work for GC in that case.

A: clear() simply sets the internal reference to null. Since references are automatically cleared when being enqueued by the garbage collector (with the exception of phantom references, but this oddity can be ignored, it will be eliminated in Java 9), there is usually no need to call clear() on a reference received via ReferenceQueue.remove().
In principle, there is the possibility to enqueue references manually via enqueue() without clearing them, but there is little sense in that, as the primary purpose of the reference queue is to learn about references being enqueued by the garbage collector which will be cleared.
When you call clear() on a Reference object that has not been enqueued yet, it may allow the referent to get collected without enqueuing the Reference object. On the other hand, when you don't need the Reference object anymore, you can let the JVM collect it like an ordinary object, together with the referent if there are no other references left, as in that case, it won't get enqueued as well, making clear() unnecessary.

Q: How to get token via API from IBM App ID backed by SAML? I'm trying to use App ID to do user authentication/authorization against a service running in Kubernetes from a CLI tool.
I've provisioned App ID and configured SAML identity provider. I added an application and got the tenant id, client id, and client secret. I also added the appid-auth annotation to the Kubernetes ingress definition.
According to the documentation here https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/services/appid?topic=appid-obtain-tokens, it should be pretty strait forward via curl, but I'm getting Error - cloud directory is OFF.
Here's an example with the credentials X'd out.
$ curl -iX POST \
> https://us-south.appid.cloud.ibm.com/oauth/v4/XXXX/token \
> -H 'Authorization: Basic XXXXXXXXX' \
> -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
> -H 'Accept: application/json' \

Error - cloud directory is OFF

If I use "grant_type":"client_credentials", it returns get an access token, but I need an identity token so the application can do authorization based on the user.
I've tried using the 'web' version in the ingress definition, and the web redirect works fine. So I know SAML is configured correctly.

A: You're mixing few different concepts here.
SAML authentication works by presenting a Login UI to user. User needs to fill email/password (or whatever credentials are) and then be taken back to the application. Bottom line here is SAML authentication workflow implies human user that can interact with browser in order to enter credentials. In order to achieve SAML federation through OpenID Connect (the protocol App ID is based on), a grant_type called authorization_code is used. This workflow also implies presenting user with login UI. Since SAML authentication cannot be used without presenting user with a UI you cannot use API only approach in order to authenticate users. With SAML you have to use grant_type=authorization_code, which will only work properly in browsers (unless you do html scraping, which is not recommended).
"grant_type=client_credentials" works differently. It is designed for non-user-interactive scenarios, where you do not have human users involved. SAML is used for authenticating users, client_credentials is used for authenticating applications/services.

5 Actors Who Could Play The Penguin In Matt Reeves' The Batman Movie
Edward Lauder
on 21st May 2019 at 12:39 pm
There have been reports that The Penguin will be in Matt Reeves' The Batman movie, so here's a list of five actors who could play the role.
With the news that Robert Pattinson is in line to play Batman in Matt Reeves' Batman movie, people started to wonder who he might be facing off in the film.
It was then rumoured – thanks to The Hollywood Reporter – that The Penguin and Catwoman would be the film's villains.
Personally, I'm not so sure about using the exact same villains from Tim Burton's Batman Returns, especially since Batman has such an incredible array of villains to choose from.
Hush, Harvey Two-Face, Calendar Man, Hugo Strange, The Court of Owls… Literally, any of these villains deserve to be brought to, or back, to the big screen.
Catwoman in The Dark Night Rises
Yet, it seems as though Reeves is using The Penguin and Catwoman, and I'll reserve judgment until after I've seen the movie.
The characters were famously played by Danny DeVito and Michelle Pfeiffer in Batman Returns. However, who would make a good Penguin Matt Reeves' Batman movie?
Here are a few suggestions that I think would make excellent Penguins (the DC Comics villain, not the animal itself).
5. Dan Fogler
Dan Fogler in Fantastic Beast
You might know Fogler from the Fantastic Beasts movies, and honestly, he's wasted in them. Fogler is a very talented actor who's shown a remarkable versatility both on the big and small screen. He was in Hannibal, The Walking Dead, Fanboys and of course, both Fantastic Beast movies. He's often seen as a funny man but he has a darker side to him too which he could explore as The Penguin in The Batman. He'd certainly give Robert Pattinson's potential Batman a run for his money.
4. Andy Serkis
Andy Serkis in Black Panther
What hasn't been written about Andy Serkis? The guy is easily one of the very best actors working in Hollywood and it's a travesty that he hasn't even received a nomination for his sterling work. The Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit and most recently, The Planet of the Apes movies. Serkis is a genuine talent and would bring his A-game to the role of The Penguin. It would also be nice to see him step away from the motion capture and show Hollywood what he can do without having to deal with the bizarre stigma around motion capture performances. He's also worked with Matt Reeves before which might help get him cast in the role.
3. Toby Jones
Toby Jones in Captain America: The First Avengers
Again, another fantastic actor who doesn't get the plaudits or the recognition he deserves in Hollywood. Toby Jones is terrific in absolutely everything he's in, and talk about versatility. I'd struggle to think of a more versatile actor working in Hollywood today. He can do anything, and he deserves a big starring role. He has been in the Marvel movies, which was great casting. But I'd like to see him sink his teeth in a role like The Penguin, and hopefully get some Oscar buzz come Awards season for it.
2. Timothy Spall
Timothy Spall would make a great Penguin
There seems to be a bit of theme with this list of actors who'd make brilliant Penguins. They'll all underappreciated in Hollywood and are mostly British. Well, here's another one for you: Timothy Spall. Spall is without a shadow of a doubt one of the best actors working today. He's just such a watchable actor and can handle anything you throw at him. He's also got experience working in big franchises, having played Peter Pettigrew in the Potter films. However, he's also got that creepy look needed to play the Penguin. I can just imagine a fantastic scene in which Batman meets The Penguin for the first time, and Spall could make it so gloriously creepy. I'd be well chuffed if Spall got the role.
1. Josh Gad
Josh Gad in Marshall
This name has been bandied about A LOT in relation to the Penguin role. He's been heavily campaigning for it, and so he should. He'd be a great choice for the role. It's often said that comic actors make the best villains, and this would certainly be the case with Gad. He's known as the bubbly and loveable guy who does the voice of Olaf in Frozen. However, he could really show off his acting chops and darker side at The Penguin. He'd make an excellent foe for Pattinson's Batman, or whoever ends up getting the superhero role.
Anyway, The Batman, or whatever it'll be called, is scheduled for release on June 25th, 2021, but that could change in time.

Operations Director, Building Services VACANCY REF: CK18351 Operations Director required for a Building...
Kingsley, Manchester
Month in property | November
Neil Tague
Market up to experience
A kerfuffle in Stockport, where the council selected Steve Pilling, who once ran Manchester's Chop Houses and has since opened several decent things locally, to run what it's hoped will become a food and drink destination at the Produce Hall and 28-29 Market Place. There was a local groundswell behind the operators of Foodie Friday, a cracking monthly street food event, but the demands here are tougher and the decision understandable. From the reaction of some, you'd think the council had chosen a kebab house/brothel combo. Surely more opportunities await, and it's best for everyone to play nicely.
Mersey Mersey me
The lesser spotted Catalyst Fund, set up in 2016 by the Merseyside Pension Fund, has made its first investment, backing a block of 120 flats by Iliad in the Ropewalks. Novel. Iliad is capable enough of course, but no part of this makes one think "ooh, that's interesting, a bit different" and to mention family housing in that area, as Iliad did, seems a bit odd, at best. Hey, maybe the pressure's on to find something backable – do developers even know the fund exists? Maybe if it was managed a bit closer than London, that might help.
Monthly Cheshire East update
Here we go again. Readers might recall that Cheshire East's long-awaited Local Plan has been challenged over the use of faulty data. Now a planning inspector, presumably while wincing, has now suggested that with some schemes taking longer to get on-site, CEC might not have a five-year housing supply after all. Action is needed quickly, or appeals will come thick and fast. For all they've spent on consultants and lawyers in the last five years, it might have been cheaper for CEC to just build an underground city for new homes – those salt mines have a lovely crisp quality to the air.
Langtree goes to Hollinwood
Nice to see Langtree deliver some healthy financials, hot on the heels of doing the first deal at Hollinwood Junction, Oldham. Raised eyebrows at the quote: "We promised early progress and that's what we delivered" though. The Roxy cinema was demolished in early 2007 and Langtree originally selected in October of that year. Following the recession, 2011 saw some bright spark suggest a leisure scheme – essentially the scheme that ended up at the Town Hall, before the latest attempt was consented this year. Well, it was always described as a 10-15 year job…
Fleet of foot
Overseas money popping up in unexpected locations might worry some, but Wyre Dock Development is hoping that the charms of Fleetwood will tempt in some Chinese cash. It has proposed a dock overhaul, with visitor attractions featuring China heavily. Before anyone scoffs, consider that China Machinery Engineering Corporation has just signed a deal to progress a gas-fired power station at Hillhouse close by. Ten years ago, some thought a supercasino was the future for the Fylde coast. Times change.
So there's been a Budget, an Industrial Strategy, and a rail strategy. Wading through Government announcements to see if promised cash is "new" is always a bit like Alan Partridge's Mini Metro review – "they've rebadged it you fool!" – and there's not a whole lot of cast-iron guarantees for the region. That said, the Qiagen diagnostics campus is a big plus, and Transpennine rail does seems to have re-ascended the pecking order. Just don't forget the platforms needed to make the Ordsall Chord worthwhile.


I'll go sentimental route today and mention a rare find among lobby cards, one I nearly failed to note, as who regards the "verso" of such a collectible where imagery is on the front side? Serious gatherers are as scrupulous to the back, for often it is tip-off to damage and/or restoration effort having been made. Rest assured that lobby cards are a sought-after modern art, many of us hooked on them from early age. This sample was response to my liking Government Girl, a Washington-based comedy with Olivia De Havilland and Sonny Tufts. Presumably funny in 1943, it is dated now as meat rationing and black market tires (GPS dealt with GG in July 2010). What moves me about the card is what a long-ago someone wrote on its flip side: "Note --- This lobby is in memory of my beloved Aunt Evelyn, when we saw this film at Warner's Hollywood Theatre, Hollywood Blvd., Calif." A number of the words are underlined, as here was precious memory for whoever wrote the inscription. Unusual was someone getting a lobby card for a keepsake --- these weren't supposed to be given or sold to patrons. Was Aunt Evelyn and her niece, or nephew, members of an exhibiting family? A Government Girl lobby card might otherwise have been tough to come by as those black market tires.
I'm convinced that most stars had little idea of what they meant to their public. Olivia De Havilland no doubt figured Government Girl for a slight vehicle, but what would she say then (let alone now, at age 102!) to such expression as this on the part of anonymous fans who memorialized their evening out to see a film so few are around to remember first-hand? Joan Crawford once said that screen players have less way of knowing what they mean to an audience because, unlike stage performers, they don't get immediate gratification of applause, being stood before cameras and an indifferent crew. Short of going out among viewership, and interaction with them (Crawford certainly did that), how would film players truly know their value? It has been said that small towns were the last to forget a star, but how many stars ventured to small towns? I'm betting most from the Classic Era lived and died without realizing half their importance to an anonymous multitude who bought tickets and revered their work. The truly mass audience then was a thing almost beyond calculation now. "Stars" today scarcely warrant the name compared with what used to be. Never mind your TCM broadcast or Warner Archive disc, and imagine Government Girl at the Warner's Hollywood with 2,350 seats and as many laughing in them. Government Girl might have seemed like the funniest picture ever made in such an environment. I wonder how long this lobby card stayed in the family before they forgot Government Girl, Aunt Evelyn, and the reason why the outing meant so much. Such tribute for me turns an attractive representation of an obscure film into meaningful proof of what moviegoing once was to its public.
What a nice piece, John. Thank you.
Reminds me in a small way how movies in the classic era were such an emotionally unifying force in America. Is there a film today that would, could, evoke a similar sentiment?
Ditto what Dan said! This really humanizes the wartime movie goer.
My wife & I are friends with a woman who saved a bunch of Christmas cards her mother received in the early 1930s. In one of them, the sender recounts that she had just seen Wheeler & Woolsey's "Cracked Nuts", and how funny it was. That kind of direct connection to a movie's original release is almost chilling to me.
A few weeks later, the woman & her husband dropped by for dinner and to watch my copy of "Cracked Nuts". It didn't go over as well with a contemporary audience, I'm afraid.
As a hospital worker in Texas, I once took care of Ronnie Lane, bass player for the Small Faces and The Faces. I told his personal assistant that I had records by both bands and he implored me to ask Lane for his autograph. He said, "Ronnie thinks nobody knows who he is here in Texas". When I spoke to Mr. Lane he was thrilled that I knew who he was and could name many records he played on.
My mother recalled when she was a young nurse -- a little after the war, I think -- Eddie Bracken made some kind of appearance at her hospital. While chatting with a group of nurses, he made a few charming remarks to her ... and got a huge laugh by handing back her wristwatch, which he'd removed while she hung on his words. I suspect that was a frequent gag for Mr. Bracken.
As for the Warner Theater, at some point--you would likely know better than I--it was retrofitted as possibly the first L.A. area Cinerama venue. From that point forward it was also called the Warner Cinerama Theater. Obviously the entire movie industry was holding their breaths but betting on any number of things and that was one of them. Whereas I did NOT see a movie made in the Cinerama process at the Warner, I DID see a movie that was touted as a Cinerama production there. I'm holding the title in abeyance because many may not ever have known this. Today, any affiliation with Cinerama is, I think, long since forgotten. Okay! It was Stanley Kubrick's immortal "2001: A Space Odyssey"! And, about as much a Cinerama production as Stanley Kramer's similarly-touted "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World" which had preceded it. However, I can testify as a reserved seat ticket holder that the impact of that remarkable, austere movie was almost instantly unforgettable. The sweep of the screen, the strange and stirring classical potpourri soundtrack, the unprecedented imagery and almost maddening mysticism of the film were amazing. And I can say that the interior of the theater was vast, the seats luxurious, and all the seats had a good view. The lobby was still on the old school side, and magnificent in the impression it gave you. I seem to recall that instead of the inevitable 'refreshment' counter running across as you entered, it was on the side, and the theater was entered along the opposite side. This was not uncommon, either. I also dimly remember a tribute to Harry Warner and his photo on the wall. That was some evening. When I think of it, you'll pardon the cliche that escapes my lips: it seems like yesterday. And, so it was! Plus a little more than fifty years added on.
But there were many grand evenings in these amazing theaters. I can't say I saw all the great ones...the actual theaters, I mean. The famous Fox Theater in San Francisco was certainly among the very greatest and only exists in photos as the movement to protect such structures as historical spaces had not yet been launched before it was condemned to the wrecking ball, and I would surmise that whatever took its place in the '60s would probably not be worthy of the now existing protection such special structures later benefited from. The ironies of life. Many others have simply died because they lived beyond their time. I've mentioned before that the Fox chain had a rather grand and impressive theater in Redondo Beach, right near the ocean and steps away from the surviving Redondo Pier amusement/restaurant attraction there. I remember going there a couple of times, but age and the dwindling ticket sales had already condemned the poor place to a tatty state with some rather unpleasant smells inside mostly composed of mustiness from the sea air. The most amazing and real element was a much weathered but still legible painted sign on the back of the building that proclaimed that "TALKING PICTURES!" were being exhibited there. I could kick myself for never bothering to take a picture of this! The Fox Redondo was knocked down many years ago in the early '70s and replaced with a senior living complex.
It's one thing to tell a young person how people revered movies, how novel they were, how varied, how magical, how almost essential they became to their lives. It's another to have just managed to catch this impression before it changed, forever. I'm glad however that people still enjoy going to see movies, even if for me they lack that heady quality, that thrill of the theater and make-believe that they once communicated so richly.


To keep an ambitious or large DIY project from feeling overwhelming, break it down into small projects and focus on taking it one step at the time. As a wise philosopher once stated, "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step."
I've always enjoyed decorating, DIY projects, gardening, and anything home related. In 2008, with the encouragement of my friends, I turned my passion for DIY into Between Naps on the Porch and it has truly changed my life. My favorite aspect of DIY/home improvement is seeing a dream you've carried in your heart finally come to fruition; there's a wonderful feeling of accomplishment when you see a space transformed into the dream you knew it could be!

PCBU and the Duty to Co-ordinate
Health and Safety / By Angela Bean
As was discussed last time the PCBU has a number of duties when operating under the Health and Safety at Work Act 2015. Including, but not limited to, the duty to Consult, the duty to Co-operate and the duty to Co-ordinate.
Consult, Co-operate and Co-ordinate
It is important that PCBUs consult, co-operate and co-ordinate all their operations to ensure the overall health and safety of all who may come into contact with that particular worksite. As with many sites there can often be a number of differing PCBU's on any one site at one time. Needless to say this means there is often disputes or differences of opinion. Therefore it goes without saying that PCBUs have a duty to make reasonable efforts to achieve a timely, final and effective resolution of workplace health and safety issues.
If a health and safety issue has not been resolved after reasonable efforts have been made, the parties may request to have an Inspector appointed to assist them in resolving the issues.
Non-compliance with the requirements
PCBUs who fail to discharge their duties to Consult, Co-operate and Co-ordinate could face fines ($20,000 for individuals and $100,000 for other legal persons such as companies, partnerships and trusts).
Review your current polices and systems to work out what gaps need to be filled in light of the law change. Figure out if you have overlapping duties with other PCBUs in respect of work being done, the workplace or the workers (it is very likely that you do!).
Be proactive in initiating and facilitating the Consultation, Co-operation and Co-ordination process with other PCBUs who have overlapping duties with you in relation to the work, workers and workplace. You may need to develop protocols and define parameters for each of these so that everyone is clear on what is required, how and when. This doesn't have to be a complicated exercise.
Depending on the scope of the work being done, it may be a simple conversation between a business and a one-off contractor (for example, a business engaging a contractor to install a piece of equipment). The parties should discuss the work that will be done, the risks involved (both at the workplace, and any risks created by the work) and how those risks will be managed. You might want to take a note of the discussion or commit to writing any particularly important points to come out of the discussion. For an ongoing relationship, or multiple PCBU's, or a very risky type of work, it may involve something more formal – job safety analysis seeks health and safety plans, and a written agreement between PCBU's as to how tasks will be apportioned.
Seeking advice early on can help you develop efficient strategies to discharge your duties under the HSWA.

The award was presented by the spokesman of the PANDA Collaboration, James Rittman from Forschungszentrum Jülich, at the most recent Collaboration meeting at the Helmholtz Institute in Mainz.
Nobel prize topic: GSI scientists hunt for exotic quantum materials
The search for exotic quantum states – the Nobel Prize in physics is awarded to three British scientists for their pioneering contribution to this field of research. Also at the GSI Helmholtzzentrum für Schwerionenforschung active research is conducted in this topic.
FAIR draws positive balance after Expo Real
Intensive talks, new contacts, fruitful discussions: FAIR GmbH (Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research in Europe) and GSI Helmholtzzentrum für Schwerionenforschung drew a positive balance following their participation in internationally renowned real estate exhibition Expo Real in Munich, Germany. For three days the construction plans and implementation steps for the unique particle accelerator facility FAIR were presented.
Heaviest atoms in the limelight
The analysis of atomic spectra is of fundamental importance for our understanding of atomic structures. Until now, researchers were unable to examine heavy elements with optical spectroscopy because these elements do not occur in nature and cannot be artificially created in weighable amounts. However, scientists have now looked for the first time into the inner structure of heavy elements. For this they used short-lived nobelium atoms with a nuclear charge of Z=102, which had been produced at...
Calls for tender from throughout Europe for commissions for the construction of FAIR
The realization of the FAIR accelerator center is progressing rapidly. The German Federal Ministry of Education and Research has approved approximately €200 million in funding for the construction of the FAIR facility. Thanks to the approval of the funding, FAIR (Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research in Europe) and GSI Helmholtzzentrum für Schwerionenforschung can now begin to award construction commissions, e.g. for the tunnel of the approximately 1.1-kilometer-long underground ring...
Paolo Giubellino appointed new Scientific Managing Director of FAIR and GSI
The internationally renowned Italian physicist Professor Paolo Giubellino will be the first joint scientific managing director and spokesperson of the directorate of the Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research in Europe GmbH (FAIR GmbH) and GSI Helmholtzzentrum für Schwerionenforschung GmbH in Darmstadt.

'Dance Central 3' is a tale as old as time
Step Up to the 70s
By Chris Plante@plante Aug 21, 2012, 10:00am EDT
Share All sharing options for: 'Dance Central 3' is a tale as old as time
Dance Central 3
Dance Central 3's story is a mash-up of Back to the Future, League of Extraordinary Dancers, Men in Black 3, Austin Powers 2, and every LMFAO music video.
Dance Central 3 has yet another thing in common with the Step Up franchise: a truly bizarre story.
As to not surrender the attention of its teenage audience to their smartphones, the Step Up series and its contemporaries have filled the gaps between choreographed set pieces with melodramatic plots about winning college scholarships, saying no to drugs, and shoring local funding of the arts. The typical dance film story falls somewhere between schticky porno and after school special. Like the latter, its broad, over-the-top, and life affirming. Like the former, it's not really what you're there for.
Dance Central 3 will follow the steps of its filmic predecessors. Recruited by the Dance Central Intelligence, DCI, the player will travel through time, learning the dance crazes from the '70s, '80s, '90s, and '00s, before returning to the present to do battle with the villainous "Dr. Tan and his mind controlled minions." Tan, you see, is a dance fascist, a hater of originality and self-expression.
This is a hodgepodge of pop storytelling, with a definite nod towards The League of Extraordinary Dancers, a dance advocacy real world counterpart to the DCI. Discerning palates will also taste notes of Men in Black 3, Austin Powers 2, and the most recent Step Up Revolution, which solved wealth disparity to the beat of LMFAO.
The player will travel through time, learning the dance crazes from the '70s, '80s, '90s, and '00s
Harmonix style, shorthand for art that is genuinely beautiful and hip, fills up the screen and blasts out the speakers. No simple task. Music and dance trends are fluid, and yet the characters, costuming and art design always feel fresh, like they've been transported from the latest YouTube videos.
Especially impressive are the sets—like an '80s NYC street corner and '90s house party—are flecked with pitch perfect minutiae. Details like wood paneling and cardboard break dance mats make the spaces feel lived in. These venues now react to many parts of songs, not just the beats per minute, but the drums, kick pedal, and snare. Each pop and snap spray colorful light across the room.
The goal is to learn each era's craze. The player will first collect bits of the craze nested within larger dances. After collecting all of the part, the player will perform the moves together, "decoding" them. And finally, the player will dance the craze to its iconic song, mastering the move before traveling back to the present.
The example shown, was a dancer picking up bits of the Hustle in songs like "I Will Survive" and "Disco Inferno," before actually hustling to, what else, "The Hustle."
Separate from the story are the multiplayer party modes.
"Make Your Move" is a fancy way of saying "dance H.O.R.S.E." Players alternate creating challenging moves that their opponent must imitate succesfully, and as these moves accumulate, until players must string the various moves together.
"Crew Throwdown" divides players into two teams of four for one-on-one, two-on-two, or asynchronous dance battles.
"Party Time" rotates through the song selection screen, until two players high five one another, launching into a dance session. From then on, the game plays one song after the next, keeping away cumbersome Kinect navigation controls.
Harmonix compared [pose mode] to Mortal Kombat's fatalities and "Vogueing." And lastly there's a pose mode, which Harmonix compared to Mortal Kombat's fatalities and "Vogueing." Two players strike character specific poses, stringing them together to net combos and the highest score. We're told these specialty poses also show up in other dance modes, giving players a reason other than appearance to choose a specific character.
The ersatz Just Dance series has found tremendous success without compelling story or even loyalty to its litany of dance moves, simply a motivator for bopping around the living room. That is one end of the spectrum, on the other is Dance Central, which as a brand, is focusing more on the authenticity of the culture, from the look to the story to the actual moves. The more noble of the two, we'll see on October 16, when the game is released exclusively on Xbox 360, if the extra work pays off.
Meanwhile, to become a fully playable dance film, the Dance Central series must retrieve a final missing piece: the Tater. Watch the trailer for Dance Central 3 below.
