This is the final instalment of our Japan trip. I started blogging again because of some pictures of sushi that I posted on Facebook. Looking at them, my friend Andrew insisted that I blog that meal, so here it is, enjoy!
We- and by we, I mean my husband- did two things before leaving for Japan. First, obtain tickets to Ghibli Museum. Second, secure dinner reservations at restaurant Sushishou. When husband called up the restaurant, the person who answered the call told him (in English), that he didn't speak English. We turned to our hotel concierge for help, and after a few e-mails were exchanged we got a booking for dinner.
There does not seem to be much information on the Internet about Sushishou. Coincidentally, Chubby Hubby had just blogged about this very same restaurant, but he refers to it as Sushi Sho. I will call it Sushishou, because the restaurant's name card spells it so, maybe the Japanese version is different.
Husband did not tell me why he chose this restaurant so I did not have any pre-conceived ideas. While dressing for dinner, it occured to me to ask him whether I needed to dress formal, so I was quite relieved when he said, no need. He only said, it is a very small place, not very fancy, I hope you will like it, they serve sushi. Ok dear, sushi is a good idea, I ate too much at lunch.
The taxi ride was short, and we alighted at a narrow lane. The restaurant is indeed small, and narrow. Counter seating only. We were warmly welcomed by the chef and all the staff when we entered. Our reservation was for 7.45 p.m. The first round of diners were nearly done with their meal.
The food was served. An appetiser. Boiled squid, the chef said. I don't usually see such pretty squid. When I ate it, my mind registered a few surprises. It was barely warm, squishy soft and yet a little chewy and the rice filling was so yummy. It was then that I turned to husband and asked him, dear, why did you choose this restaurant? He said, chef Keiji Nakazawa is very famous, master of many famous sushi chefs in Tokyo, he once competed in Iron Chef, and, some even said that he kicked out a Michelin inspector. So this place does not have a star, I asked. No, he confirmed. Wow, oh wow! I was so excited, I felt like raining kisses on my sweet, thoughful man for arranging such an interesting surprise, but it was a public place, instead, we clinked our glasses and settled down to enjoy our meal. A succession of amazing sushi was served, all incredibly delicious and completely different from all the other sushi I have ever eaten in my life. I did not take many pictures, just enjoyed the wonderful moments as they happened.
Sardine roll. After ooh-ing and aah-ing at the jewel-like appearance we popped it into our mouths and again, it was unlike any sardine sushi we've ever had. The fish was sweet and intense, very lively from addition of shisho leaves and pickled ginger.
We were enjoying a little bowl of chawan mushi containing succulent blobs of abalone, two types of uni and popping ikura when a party of seven gentlemen entered. They spoke Mandarin, only two of them could converse comfortably in Japanese. They came from Taiwan. I was curious. It costs a minimum of 20,000 yen per person, did these people just sign a multi-billion dollar deal? Or...so I asked the guy next to me, are you in the food business? He nodded his head, but asked me not to blow his cover. Throughout the meal, he engaged with the chef and asked many questions, most of them technical. In this way we also learnt a lot about chef Nakazawa's approach to sushi. I am sure that he knew the customer was trying to learn some of his secrets yet he did not seem to mind, in fact he was more than generous in sharing his methods and techniques.
Nothing was as it seemed. Before eating at Sushishou, I thought sushi means using the freshest fish you could find. Most of the fish we ate that night was not exactly delivered off the boat that morning. Like Chubby Hubby pointed out, the chef actually ages and treats his fish to coax more flavours and improve the product. They might be lightly grilled, or a little torched, or marinated in various types of konbu dashi, or cured with something. Seasonings can be special salt, home-made pickles or even pepper pastes. He doesn't just have one pot of sushi rice. We noticed that some of our sushi had brown-coloured rice (from some ingredient I didn't catch the name of, but it's definitely not soy sauce), some had white rice. When the gentleman on my right asked if oily fish pairs with brown rice and white fish with white rice, chef started a discourse that basically said it's not that simple, it is the end result of his research on how each component comes together to form a unified end-product and every piece of sushi he was presenting to us had gone through that process. A process that might even involve, say, slicing the fish so it resembled one of those modern skyscrapers in Tokyo.
I asked my new friend, so what have you guys been eating? He said, we came to Tokyo yesterday, and have since been eating non-stop, mostly Michelin-starred places. But this is the best one (of the lot).
I apologise for the poor image. Just that this was my favourite sushi that night. Sanma sushi, with a piece of the liver cooked till just starting to turn molten.
Toro. With the brown rice. At the counter and kept in various chilling cabinets we could see the various slabs of fish, some sitting on pieces of kelp, some just glistening like so. The toro though, came from a special metal box under the counter. Chef treated the toro like a family treasure, carefully taking it out and putting it back. The white streaks were not sinews, my sushi melted in my mouth in an explosion of warm, creamy umami, the slightly nutty rice acting as a kind of anchor, chewing it after the fish gone down my gullet, I could still taste the lingering finish of the toro.
There was a sushi of ankimo (monkfish liver) paired with watermelon pickle. Oishii.
Tuna came up a few times. The neck part was good.
Chef places sushi on our plates. Chef tells us the name of the dish, first in Japanese and maybe followed by its English translation. We ate. Mostly with eyes close because it was so darn amazing. Rinse. Repeat.
I drank beer in the beginning, but husband let me have a sip of his sake and I too, switched to sake. We had 2 types of sake, both recommended by the waiter. Ken Kon Ichi, and Haku Raku Sei, he wrote the English words for us. Husband looked them up later. The sake came from Miyagi, the breweries were competely destroyed in the 2011 earthquake but have since been rebuilt.
We chatted with our neighbours on our left, a young Japanese couple from out of Tokyo. The wife looks like a doll, with impossibly long eyelashes and porcelain face (actually every time we were at a nice Japanese restaurant there would be at least one young lady looking like that) and though she looked tiny and demure, she could eat quite a lot. It was their first time, and like us, they started off a bit nervous, but soon relaxed in the quietly congenial atmosphere.
Husband doesn't like uni, so he gave me all his uni sushi. I ate at least three types of uni that night, some in double portions. The last was this- yaki uni, the uni came from Aomori, and had been lightly grilled. Seriously, the most voluptuous, mind-bending uni sushi I have ever tasted.
The menu only starts from 20,000 yen, gets more expensive the more you eat. From time to time, chef would check if we were still hungry. I got full sooner than husband, and ate, I don't know, about 20 pieces of sushi. Husband had a bigger appetite, he continued eating more amazing sushi, there was also a soup, and some cooked seafood. His last course was a sushi with tuna that had been aged for 10 days. How was it, dear? Intense, almost funky, and definitely unforgettable.
In the taxi on the way back to the hotel, I asked husband about the bill. Expensive, he said, but worth every yen, and maybe more, because this was Tokyo, the best of the best. As usual, my husband is right. We were supposed to go to Tsukiji market the next morning. Earlier, I had planned to just arrive in time for breakfast and find myself a humongous bowl of uni chirashi sushi. After our wonderful meal, we decided that we would skip Tsukiji altogether, it just seemed like the right thing to do.

The Band of the Princess of Wales's Royal Regiment is an Army Reserve band based in Canterbury. Despite our military connections, music is our passion, our profession and is at the heart of everything we do.
We are a friendly lot and our recent inspection has declared us as musically competent as the best bands in the British Army. However, in order to sustain this, over the coming months the addition of new players is essential.
I should probably add that the financial reward for playing with the band can be very lucrative, something which is a bonus for any 'hobby musicians' or professionals alike. Our military duties are absolute minimal!
We would be so incredibly grateful if you could help us at this time, and please take a look at the attached flyer for more information.
On behalf of the Band and Drums, I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Reviving the Independence of Cyberspace
By Sean O'Brien
In a bizarre twist of facts, the FCC has claimed this week that its annual report proves the repeal of Net Neutrality has made the Internet better for all of us. The report is an exercise in contradictions, claiming that "advanced telecommunications capability is being deployed to all Americans," and quoting the phrase "in a reasonable and timely fashion".
Those quotation marks are appropriate, since the report also notes that "far too many Americans lack access to high-speed Internet service" and two-thirds of homes only have access to one broadband ISP. Though the FCC wants to reinvent its war against Net Neutrality as a battle for consumer choice, the reality is a monopolized mess. As one dissenting FCC commissioner explained, "Simply put, this report is biased, flawed, and woefully incomplete."
There's no convincing Ajit Pai's warriors of that, however. To them, "the marketplace is already responding to the more deployment-friendly regulatory environment now in place," a radiant sign of progress that doesn't require any supporting evidence.
Last month, I was invited by the Yale Political Union to speak about Net Neutrality. Whether it was the college debate setting or my desire to forget about recent history, I began with a famous argument from the 17th Century. The quarrel of the Anciens and Modernes, the "Ancients" and the "Moderns", hinged on the notion of progress.
The Ancients contended that we could do no better than imitate ancient art and culture, while the Moderns believed we could do much better. What was the reasoning of the Moderns? Ancient societies didn't have access to all the information and scholarship that they had at the time. Before the Enlightenment had even gone into full swing, it was clear that the well-being of a society was intimately tied to the access to knowledge of its people.
To an observer today, it's a no-brainer that the Moderns won the quarrel. We have the Internet. Which is, of course, where I learned about this 17th Century debate in the first place. Though Wikipedia gets some of the credit, I also downloaded a series of lectures about the Renaissance and Enlightenment over (gasp!) BitTorrent. That action was considered illegal in the U.S., even in long-ago 2005. In 2018, the BitTorrent protocol can't be used for any purpose, without special permission, on nearly any university network in the U.S. including Yale's.
If you have a residential ISP such as Frontier or Comcast, the only two choices in my corner of Connecticut, you might receive a written warning after downloading such a file, as I have a few times, or you might just have your traffic "rate limited", "throttled", or "shaped", to use a more gentle-sounding term.
Burger King has now set the stage for any conversation about Net Neutrality in 2018. If you pay more for your Whopper, you'll get it faster. If not, you'll just have to wait. Though it's a useful analogy for network traffic, we have to remind ourselves that we're not just talking about fast food here — we're talking about potentially anything a computer can store and transmit. All the art in the world, all the music, all the literature and history and science and software source code.
We don't need gatekeepers telling us what our minds can and can't eat. If I'm on the Internet, I should be able to have proverbial beer and burgers or fine dining.
In the 1990s, you'd be forgiven for assuming that the Internet could become an endless, infinite library. Yet we've passively allowed intermediaries to lock it down and wall us off from each other, and our collective culture, in ever more creative ways. With John Perry Barlow's recent passing, maybe it's time to reread his manifesto and revive the concept of the Independence of Cyberspace, a place where "all the sentiments and expressions of humanity, from the debasing to the angelic, are parts of a seamless whole, the global conversation of bits".
Such a treatise is far from a quaint relic of the past and, in fact, is more appropriate now than ever. Our lives are almost completely intermediated by network-connected devices. When Peter Sunde was on trial with the other members of The Pirate Bay in 2009, he was asked when he first met his friends IRL, "In Real Life". He responded that he didn't like that word, preferring AFK instead for "Away From Keyboard". In 2018, how often are any of us "Away From Phone"?
If I can't access social services, healthcare, or emergency services because I have a bad Internet connection or, worse, no connection, where does that leave me? I'm barely considered a real person at that point, in this age where almost all government, social, and business transactions occur online. How closely do we want Comcast's tiered payment plans for broadband to correlate with a person's status or class in the U.S.?
In a country where our government regulators are step-in-time with the broadband providers, we have more to worry about than just a bad connection. Americans often talk about repressive states and how free our Internet is in contrast, but true anonymity and censorship circumvention is treated very harshly here. Privacy and free expression through digital anonymity is worse than a taboo subject; to network operators it borders on criminal or, worse, terrorist.
Anonymity is often the only way to send a file or message securely through the Internet, and strong encryption software as well as anonymous networks like Tor are essential tools for digital freedom. Though Comcast claims it had never threatened Tor users in 2014, the gloves are now off for ISPs to block or throttle Tor and any kind of traffic they deem suspicious.
Surveillance is an essential part of dividing up and selling chunks of the Internet to different people. The companies running our network infrastructure are now emboldened to increase this surveillance, and have all the legal justification they need to do so. Even if it isn't used to choke or turn off our connections, we should be wary of the lidless eye of each ISP that watches our every movement.
Though it's important to fight the battle for Net Neutrality at the government policy level, we also need grassroots solutions. Community networks are springing up all over the U.S., bolstered by people and organizations passionate for a free, fair, and open Internet.
At Yale Privacy Lab, we've been able to set up network infrastructure as well, in the form of the FreedomBox "private cloud" server. Thanks to positive engagement with Yale IT staff and members of local makerspace MakeHaven, we now have access to a variety of private, secure services, including Tor. You can set up your own FreedomBox at home, with $50 USD or less.
We don't have to go back to an ancient world that has forgotten Internet Enlightenment, at least not yet. Though dark days are looming, there's still time to fight for network freedom, perhaps even expand it. We'll have to do those battles in our local communities as well as at our keyboards. After all, the Internet is an aspect of our real world, not something apart from it.

Frontiers of Family Economics Vol: 1
Peter Rupert
Frontiers of Family Economics
Over the past several decades there have been substantial changes in the size, composition, educational level, work activity, and locational choice of families. The aim of this book series is to provide a better understanding of the forces that have led to the choices and consequent observed changes. The aforementioned changes have likely resulted from varied sources. The initial book will provide a collection of articles at the frontier of research on issues relevant to family decision making and the outcomes of such decisions. The book will contain theoretical as well as empirical insights. Future volumes will focus more narrowly on particular topics. The term family economics is, admittedly, quite broad; however, it was chosen precisely for that feature. The topics to be covered are vast, yet likely interrelated: What explains the rise in labor force participation of women over the past fifty years? What role does technological advance in the household sector play in understanding the behavior of labor force participation and hours of work at home and in the market? What explains the increase in occupational mobility over the past several decades? What factors might be important in explaining the increased rate of divorce? What effect does the increased divorce rate have on the outcomes of children? How much does schooling choice matter for child outcomes? What are the factors that lead to migration/immigration? What explains the explosion in personal bankruptcy rates observed over the past two decades? These are examples of questions that are currently being asked by researchers throughout the world. Moreover, the answers to such questions can help guide policy makers in understanding how their decisions affect the choices made by individuals and families. The book series will provide readers with a solid theoretical framework as well as a thorough description of the relevant data.

CRADLE OF FILTH, London Palladium, 19 October 2019
Look up the word 'spectacle' in a dictionary and don't be surprised if you encounter a picture of Cradle Of Filth at the London Palladium. Pulling out all the stops to celebrate the upcoming 're-mistressed' anniversary release of their third album, 1998's 'Cruelty And The Beast', the masters of mayhem took over one of the bastions of polite society and delivered a show of breath-taking audacity, in equal parts noise, Filth and fury, as Warfare once declared.
The object of the exercise was to showcase 'Cruelty And The Beast' in its entirety, and, with the lights dimming at 8:15, the next hour was solely focussed on a perfect rendition backed by a stunning light show and enough flamethrowers to recreate the Great Fire of London. No chat, no distractions, just metal at its most malevolent. Aided and abetted by arguably the band's most solid line-up with guitarists Richard Shaw and Marek Smerda providing the thrills, bassist Daniel Firth and drummer Marthus Skaroupka adding the fills, and keyboard player, narrator and soprano Lindsay Schoolcraft delivering the chills, Dani Filth spat, screamed and hollered his lungs out for pretty much the next hour in front of an adoring audience. His only breaks came during the instrumental passages 'Venus In Fear' and 'Portrait Of The Dead Countess', when the empty stage was haunted by the embodiment of Countess Bathory, the subject of the band's breakthrough album. The material ebbed and flowed, built to a peak and then crashed once more, until the final notes of 'Lustmord And Wargasm (The Lick Of Carnivorous Winds)' were drowned by the applause of the faithful.
But wait, there's more... After a fifteen-minute interval a second set saw a change of make-up for Dani Filth and a change of backdrop (to feature the most recent album, 2017's 'Cryptoriana – The Seductiveness Of Decay'), and returning to the stage Cradle Of Filth delivered a collection of, well, maybe not so much greatest hits but certainly crowd-pleasers. All but one of the seven songs served also came from way back – the likes of 'Saffron's Curse' and 'Her Ghost In The Fog' unearthed from 2000's 'Midian' album and 'Malice Through The Looking Glass' even predating the main event. The sole offering from their latest album – 'Heartbreak And Séance' – was greeted warmly, and 'From The Cradle To Enslave' saw everyone off into the chilly London air. OK, so Dani and the boys didn't dole out their take on 'Hallowed Be Thy Name', but you can't have everything.

Home Q News Entertainment Wendy Williams cancels live studio audience due to coronavirus pandemic
Wendy Williams cancels live studio audience due to coronavirus pandemic
ThursdayMar122020
ABC(NEW YORK) — The Wendy Williams Show is the latest talk show to cancel live audience tapings due to the COVID-19 coronavirus outbreak.
The show released a statement via Instagram reading, "Wendy values her co-host and their daily participation, but in light of the current health climate, The Wendy Williams Show will not have a live studio audience until further notice. We will continue to produce a daily live talk show & look forward to welcoming the studio audience back when the time is right."
Wendy's production staff filled in as her co-hosts during yesterday's episode — the ones who weren't in the control room or answering phones. "
We don't have much going on around here but we do have each other. These are people who support me and this entire production everyday," Wendy Williams said in a clip from the show posted on Instagram.
The View, Good Morning America, Rachael Ray, Live with Kelly and Ryan in New York, and game shows such as Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune that tape in Los Angeles, have also opted out of having live audiences due to the outbreak.

Who's kissing who? Self driving cars edition
(TECH NEWS) With so many players, partnerships and rivalries in the self driving car game, we thought we'd try to put everything in one place for you.
Matt Salter
We begin with a story.
In the grim darkness of the 2000s, when I was but a little Matt, cocooned in higher learning, intent on writing the Man and sticking it to the Great American Novel and/or vice versa, a friend showed me a remarkable object.
This friend, and her friends, and their friends, had joined in fearsome female conspiracy to produce a list of who, in the… "complicated" is underselling it. Who, in the lunatic "Game of Thrones with twice the beer, half the IQ and no sharp objects" social congress of a co-ed dorm full of liberal arts majors, had been canoodling with whom.
My entry appeared 18th. High midfield – there were about 80. I never got up the nerve to ask how we were ranked.
You wouldn't believe how useful that list has been to my life. Not the list itself, beyond a healthy infusion of self-doubt (18th?). But the concept, friends. Who's smooching whom? It's the universal question. Money and math are just ways to track it. Map the relationships, you've mapped the thing.
Let us therefore speak of self-driving cars. Because they're coming, we all know it, and like any reasonable person you would like to acquire a giant Scrooge McDuck money pool to swim in thereby.
First, for our purposes, assume every car manufacturer has an in-house outfit at least looking at autonomous cars, because duh. For our purposes, they're celibate. Nothing wrong with that.
Second, for the sake of their self-image (18th? Really? I mean, it was 80-some, but… really?) I'll keep my smoochers alphabetical.
Now. Who, amongst the people actually building autonomous cars, is smooching whom?
Daimler, or Mercedes to be all American about it, is smooching..
…Smart. Yep, just Smart, which is a Daimler brand. Daimler is quite monogamous in its autonomous automotive endeavors. Aww. And seriously, the self-driving Smart Car is freaking adorable.
…Lyft, which is branching out of the X-as-a-service business to actually build stuff. At least, it says it is. Fair dues, it says it emphatically, like "by 2021 a majority of our rides will be in self-driving cars, and by 2025 personal car ownership won't be a thing." To that end, they're smooching…
…Ford, because, you know, Ford makes cars and Lyft doesn't.
…themselves. We've all been there.
But there's more to Lyft. I ain't saying Lyft is a gold digger, but it is not frequently seen in the company of partners with less than substantial means. They're looking to be network of choice for other people's self driving cars. That is, Lyft seeks to be smooched. Big-name volunteers currently include GM and Jaguar.
Uber. I'm almost hesitant to write about Uber, because, my Deity of Choice, Uber is a hot mess right now. Like, really. But they do theoretically have a business model other than litigation, and they have made a commitment to actually making, not just contracting, self-driving cars. To that end, they've been doing some hopefully less-skeezy-than-usual smooching with…
…Otto. Otto was Uber's Waymo, their in-house startup. Unfortunately, they're currently in court arguing that it's not Uber's Waymo in the sense that a Waymo executive stole a bunch of stuff from Waymo, then hooked up with Uber. Oh my, the drama. Poor Otto, like so many third wheels, appears to have been dropped, but there was smoochin' going on. Litigious smooching! That is the worst kind of smooching.
…Volvo. Volvo was going to be to Uber what Fiat Chrysler was to Waymo. You may be sensing a pattern. Also, the Uber Volvo self-drivers are back in testing after smacking into somebody in Arizona. See aforementioned "mess, hot."
Volvo. What's to say about Volvo? My first car was a Volvo wagon (of course it was, I am, as noted elsewhere in my oeuvre, a painfully stereotypical fluffy hippie) and I can think of nothing exciting to say about Volvo. That (un)said, Volvo has a rep for surprisingly forward thinking techwise, given its cars are best known for safety, reliability and other unsexy things. That's borne out in its smooching, which includes…
…Autoliv, which, world's largest auto safety supplier. Sounds like Volvo.
…Nvidia, which, what? Nvidia's definitely the "s/he's hooking up with who?" entry on this list. For non-nerds in the audience, Nvidia's main consumer-focused business is graphics processing for PCs. Gamer stuff. They make sure you can see the individual folds of brain tissue off the zombie you just domed. As an Nvidia customer myself, I'd never lower myself to a stereotype-laden joke like "Nvidia's doing cars? Nvidia customers don't go outside!" but, well. On the other hand, chipsets. They are very good at them.
Waymo, the Alphabet-owned (read "Google, but for things we don't want to call Google") startup that's all autonomous cars, all the time, is smooching…
…well, mostly Google. They would be. But – can we be real a second? Google's a slut. We all know it. Get a little entrepreneurial Natty Light in 'em and they'll go home with anything. So in practice, Waymo is smooching…
…Fiat Chrysler Automotive to get the cars on the road. That's already happened with their Early Rider Program, which has put 500 robo-Chryslers on the streets of Phoenix, something I still find vaguely intimidating. If the satnav says "Exterminate!" I'm moving to Mars.
…Intel for hardware. Waymo still does its development entirely in-house, but Intel, being noted for building nice chips, is building the chips.
The great thing about "who's smooching whom" is that, when you map that one aspect, you get a sense of the whole. That list from the first paragraph? An alien could be given that and no other information about h. sapiens collegiensis and determine "these organisms have little impulse control, no understanding of consequences, and should probably consume less of a mysterious resource called 'beer.'"
The Spock analysis of automotive smooching yields similar results. For all the crazed Lannister decadence above, the relationships people are building in order to make self-driving cars a reality come down to three things: a business plan for their use, top-tier tech, and a whole bunch of actual cars.
As yet, nobody has all three, hence the smooching. Lyft has a business plan, but no cars, so smooches for Ford, GM and Jag. Volvo has cars, but no tech or business plan, so Nvidia and Autoliv get their smooches.
The question is, who will get all three in one place in a way customers care about?
That's where you come in. Read the above, read this (that goes into far greater detail). It has maps!
After that, your call. It's your money. Like any good smooch, you don't know how it's gonna go until it's gone.

(TECH NEWS) If you are tired of third party cookies trying to grab every bit of data about you, google has heard and responded with their new updates.
Allison Yano, Staff Writer
Google has announced the end of third-party tracking cookies on its Chrome browser within the next two years in an effort to grant users better means of security and privacy. With third-party cookies having been relied upon by advertising and social media networks, this move will undoubtedly have ramifications on the digital ad sector.
Google's announcement was made in a blog post by Chrome engineering director, Justin Schuh. This follows Google's Privacy Sandbox launch back in August, an initiative meant to brainstorm ideas concerning behavioral advertising online without using third-party cookies.
Chrome is currently the most popular browser, comprising of 64% of the global browser market. Additionally, Google has staked out its role as the world's largest online ad company with countless partners and intermediaries. This change and any others made by Google will affect this army of partnerships.
This comes in the wake of rising popularity for anti-tracking features on web browsers across the board. Safari and Firefox have both launched updates (Intelligent Tracking Prevention for Safari and the Enhanced Tracking Prevention for Firefox) with Microsoft having recently released the new Edge browser which automatically utilizes tracking prevention. These changes have rocked share prices for ad tech companies since last year.
The two-year grace period before Chrome goes cookie-less has given the ad and media industries time to absorb the shock and develop plans of action. The transition has soften the blow, demonstrating Google's willingness to keep positive working relations with ad partnerships. Although users can look forward to better privacy protection and choice over how their data is used, Google has made it clear it's trying to keep balance in the web ecosystems which will likely mean compromises for everyone involved.
Chrome's SameSite cookie update will launch in February, requiring publishers and ad tech vendors to label third-party cookies that can be used elsewhere on the web.
(TECH NEWS) It's so hard to find the right recipe for that beautiful meal you saw on tv or online. Well computer vision helps AI recreate it from a picture!
Ever seen at a photo of a delicious looking meal on Instagram and wondered how the heck to make that? Now there's an AI for that, kind of.
Facebook's AI research lab has been developing a system that can analyze a photo of food and then create a recipe. So, is Facebook trying to take on all the food bloggers of the world now too?
Well, not exactly, the AI is part of an ongoing effort to teach AI how to see and then understand the visual world. Food is just a fun and challenging training exercise. They have been referring to it as "inverse cooking."
According to Facebook, "The "inverse cooking" system uses computer vision, technology that extracts information from digital images and videos to give computers a high level of understanding of the visual world,"
The concept of computer vision isn't new. Computer vision is the guiding force behind mobile apps that can identify something just by snapping a picture. If you've ever taken a photo of your credit card on an app instead of typing out all the numbers, then you've seen computer vision in action.
Facebook researchers insist that this is no ordinary computer vision because their system uses two networks to arrive at the solution, therefore increasing accuracy. According to Facebook research scientist Michal Drozdzal, the system works by dividing the problem into two parts. A neutral network works to identify ingredients that are visible in the image, while the second network pulls a recipe from a kind of database.
These two networks have been the key to researcher's success with more complicated dishes where you can't necessarily see every ingredient. Of course, the tech team hasn't stepped foot in the kitchen yet, so the jury is still out.
This sounds neat and all, but why should you care if the computer is learning how to cook?
Research projects like this one carry AI technology a long way. As the AI gets smarter and expands its limits, researchers are able to conceptualize new ways to put the technology to use in our everyday lives. For now, AI like this is saving you the trouble of typing out your entire credit card number, but someday it could analyze images on a much grander scale.
(TECH NEWS) Xiaomi finds out that while modern smart and security devices have helped us all, but there are still plenty of flaws and openings for security breeches.
The reason for setting up security cameras around your home is so the photos can get streamed to your neighbor's device, right?
Okay, that's obviously not why most (if any) of us get security cameras, but unfortunately, that scenario of the leaked images isn't a hypothetical. Xiaomi cameras have been streaming photos to the wrong Google Home devices. This was first reported on Reddit, with user Dio-V posting a video of it happening on their device.
Xiaomi is a Chinese electronics company that has only recently started to gain traction in the U.S. markets. While their smartphones still remain abroad, two of Xiaomi's security cameras are sold through mainstream companies like Wal-Mart and Amazon for as low as $40. Their affordable prices have made the products even more popular and Xiaomi's presence has grown, both nationally and abroad.
To be fair, when the leaked photos surfaced, both Google and Xiaomi responded quickly. Google cut off access to Xiaomi devices until the problem was resolved to ensure it wouldn't happen again. Meanwhile, Xiaomi worked to identify and fix the issue, which was caused by a cache update, and has since been fixed.
But the incident still raises questions about smart security devices in the first place.
Any smart device is going to be inherently vulnerable due to the internet connection. Whether it's hackers, governments, or the tech companies themselves, there are plenty of people who can fairly easily gain access to the very things that are supposed to keep your home secure.
Of course, unlike these risks, which involve people actively trying to access your data, this most recent incident with Xiaomi and Google shows that your intimate details might even be shared to strangers who aren't even trying to break into your system. Unfortunately, bugs are inevitable when it comes to keeping technology up to date, so it's fairly likely something like this could happen again in the future.
That's right, your child's room might be streamed to a total stranger by complete accident.
Granted, Xiaomi's integration mistake only affected a fraction of their users and many risks are likely to decrease as time goes on. Still, as it stands now, your smart security devices might provide a facade of safety, but there are plenty of risks involved.


New flights connecting directly Athens with the major North American cities are set to begin soon.

Stars like Megan Fox and Miranda Kerr reportedly swear by it—so should you give it a try?
The question: Miranda Kerr reportedly uses apple cider vinegar on her salads to stay slim, while Megan Fox mixes it with water to "clean out her system," according to The Daily Mail. So can apple cider vinegar actually help you drop kilos? And if so, how do you actually use apple cider vinegar to use weight?
The answer: We hate to be the bearer of bad news, but apple cider vinegar should not be considered a magic weight-loss bullet, says London. "The studies that have been done are small and not well-designed." Something called "delayed gastric emptying" is the best argument among the theories circulating about apple cider vinegar's weight-loss power; the idea is that apple cider vinegar assists in this process, so you'll feel more satiated. Still, London says the research that's been done on apple cider vinegar so far isn't compelling enough to be a reason to consume it just to help you drop kilos.
You may have also heard talk of some research that suggests apple cider vinegar is helpful at reversing the effects of weight gain and obesity, but there are some major caveats. Most of the research (like this analysis from Diabetes Research and Clinical Practice) don't look at weight at all—they look at other factors that can be related to being overweight or obese, like your body's insulin response. Some of this research (like this study from the Journal of Medicinal Food) was done on animals—so the results won't necessarily translate to humans. While these preliminary studies suggest there may be a link between apple cider vinegar consumption and things like insulin resistance and obesity-related diseases, the keyword there is may—we don't have conclusive proof. And even if these findings do turn out to be true, they don't mean you would necessarily lose weight from upping your apple cider vinegar intake. In other words, the claim that apple cider vinegar may help you drop a few kilos is still pretty far-fetched at this point.
That said, if apple cider vinegar will motivate you to eat more salads (like celebrities such as Miranda Kerr have said), then go for it. "I'm all about anything that will encourage people to eat more veggies and fruits, and apple cider vinegar does make a nice salad dressing," says London. On top of that, it'll add a sweet and tangy flavour for zero kilojoules, which certainly can't hurt your waistline.
READ MORE: Should You Avoid Bananas If You're Trying To Lose Weight?
Another potential benefit of the liquid is its antioxidant power. After apples are fermented into vinegar, nutrients like beta-carotene, calcium, and potassium still remain. "The antioxidant, antimicrobial effect of the apple cider vinegar may help the skin, as some of the stars are claiming," says London. "We know diets high in antioxidants protect cells and provide a whole range of health benefits." When it comes to the skin, antioxidants have protective benefits, like helping protect against harmful UV rays and encouraging cell regrowth, which may be why celebs are crediting it for their youthful glows.
So, bottom line? Apple cider vinegar isn't bad for you, so if you're into the flavour then definitely feel free to add more of it to your meals—but don't expect it to make weight magically fall off, either.

Keep your home away from home safe against every eventuality with competitively priced holiday home insurance through Mastercover.
Having a holiday home is a modern-day luxury that is becoming more and more common. But when the holiday's over, you need to make sure that you have the right level of insurance in place, so that everything will be exactly as you left it. As your second home, holiday homes are vulnerable to the same risks as any other property – theft, storms, fires, flooding – so having the right buildings and content insurance in place is absolutely vital.
The main difference between standard home insurance and holiday home insurance is that the standard insurance does not pay out if the property is left unoccupied for more than 30 or 60 days a year, and it does not cover letting out your property for others to stay in. Holiday home insurance is therefore a unique blend of the extensive coverage of standard home insurance and the flexibility of unoccupied property insurance.
What type of holiday home insurance do I need?
If you have a mortgage on your holiday or second home, your mortgage lender will generally require that you have buildings insurance in place. Even if you own the property without a mortgage, it is wise to have buildings insurance in place because it will cover any of the costs (up to a limit determined in your policy documents), should you need to rebuild your home or any outbuildings.
As for contents insurance, this is generally not required by mortgage lenders but it is still a sensible idea to take out a policy in order to protect your personal belongings. Try drawing up an inventory of all of the possessions in your holiday home (including the garden and outbuildings) to get an idea of how much you could stand to lose should something happen to your property. Even if you do decide to take out contents insurance for your holiday home, Mastercover recommends that you do not leave any items of worth in your holiday home when it is left unoccupied.
What am I protected against?
Holiday home insurance policies generally cover the same risks as a standard home insurance policy, with the addition that your home is still protected even when left unoccupied or let out for prolonged periods. Most holiday home insurers cover properties abroad, but restrictions may apply in different countries, so make sure you read all policy documentation carefully.

Q: shared data for multi thread in java i have a problem when i write a program on android for monitoring ecg real time.
Ecg data is transfered to mobile in real time by udp. In mobile, there have 2 thread: a thread gets ecg data transfered, a thread draws the ecg data.
Cicurlar buffer is common data for two thread above, and two threads always confict when read and write to buffer. And result is that ecg is lost or slow.
Before user cicurlar buffer, i had used 5 linkedblockingqueu but result was same.
Can any one give me some solution for data for multithread in my program?
Thank you.
Sorry, my english is not good.!
there is model when i used linkedblockingqueue:

A: You need to synchronize access to your data using a shared lock. I highly recommend Java Concurrency in Practice if you want to truly understand threading and concurrency models in Java.

A: I think, Synchronization is the solution for your problem.

Threads communicate primarily by
  sharing access to fields and the
  objects reference fields refer to.
  This form of communication is
  extremely efficient, but makes two
  kinds of errors possible: thread
  interference and memory consistency
  errors. The tool needed to prevent
  these errors is synchronization.

From the JavaDoc's  BlockingQueue

BlockingQueue implementations are
  thread-safe. All queuing methods
  achieve their effects atomically using
  internal locks or other forms of
  concurrency control. However, the bulk
  Collection operations addAll,
  containsAll, retainAll and removeAll
  are not necessarily performed
  atomically unless specified otherwise
  in an implementation. So it is
  possible, for example, for addAll(c)
  to fail (throwing an exception) after
  adding only some of the elements in c.

A: In my assumption you are directly accessing the collection (Any Fifo based), you must try to make a bean which should have getter and setters for data not for collection and the collection should be define in bean. you can create the bean object before you create thread objects and pass the bean object to threads at contructing time, hope this will you.

Q: use value of wildcard in other parameter Is there a one line solution for this?
I have many files and subdirectories in a directory.
For a simplification lets say I have only
./dir1/file1
./dir2/file2
./file3

I want to run a command for each of this files using wildcard (*) and then use the value of the wildcard to generate ID of a file in format dir_file and put it as another parameter of a command
e.g., for
command -file * -id <something>

in the case of 3 files from the example this should be called after expanding the wildcard:
command -file ./dir1/file1 -id dir1_file1
command -file ./dir2/file2 -id dir2_file2
command -file file3 -id file3

A: At least in Bash it is not possible because:

After word splitting, unless the -f option has been set, bash scans
  each word for the characters *, ?, and [. If one of these characters
  appears, then the word is regarded as a pattern, and replaced with an
  alphabetically sorted list of file names matching the pattern.

That means that a single * would be replaced with a list of all files that match the pattern. Try it yourself - after typing * in your terminal press M-S-* (that means hold Alt+Shift+* together) and wildcard will be expanded.
You can achieve what you want using find, it can however get unreadable pretty quickly:
find . -type f -name "*"  -exec bash -c 'command -file {} -id (echo {} | sed -e 's,\.,dot,' | sed -e 's,/,_,g' )'  \;


A new marketing campaign running throughout the state of Ohio prominently showcases two Wyandot County Office of Economic Development members. A new AEP Ohio commercial gives a quick showcase of Kalmbach Feeds and its new state-of-the-art REK feed mill facility. Kalmbach Feeds Vice President of Operations Andy Bishop as well as AEP Ohio Economic and Business Development Manager Tim Wells provide brief oversight of the recent REK project and how the two entities cooperated to minimize costs associated with the development. A portion of the AEP Ohio grants mentioned in the advertisement were facilitated through coordination with the WCOED years ago when the REK project was in the planning phases.
Lastly, footage was also shot in downtown Upper Sandusky where a Kalmbach Feeds truck can be seen passing through the main intersection. The 30 second commercial provides a quick highlight of some great Wyandot County assets and showcases the significant recent growth project of a home-grown company.

London, April 12, 2019
CNH Industrial N.V. (NYSE: CNHI / MI: CNHI) shareholders at the Annual General Meeting ("AGM"), held today in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, approved the Company's 2018 EU–IFRS Annual Report (including the Company's 2018 statutory financial statements) and a dividend of €0.18 per common share, equivalent to a total distribution of approximately €244 million.

Tammenoms Bakker and Jacques Theurillat were re-elected as non-executive directors; Alessandro Nasi and Lorenzo Simonelli were elected as non-executive directors.

Shareholders also replaced the existing authorization for the Board to repurchase up to a maximum of 10% of the Company's common shares issued as of the date of the AGM.

Remembering Computing Pioneer Marvin Minsky, Dead at 88
Gregory T. Huang
@gthuang
The science and technology community is mourning the loss of Marvin Minsky, the MIT-based artificial intelligence and computing giant, who passed away Sunday at the age of 88.
Minsky is a transcendent figure who cut major swaths through the history of scientific research, education, philosophy, and technology. His ideas are credited with influencing everything from modern-day computers and the Internet to A.I. techniques such as machine learning, as well as neuroscience and robotics. But perhaps his greatest achievement was in teaching people, not machines, to think.
Minsky's legacy of ideas and research may take generations to understand, let alone fully appreciate. Here are five reflections on his life:
—The New York Times gives a proper sense of Minsky's breadth of expertise and interests.

When ideas run dry and will not materialize even after scratching at the almost impossible sources, we usually head to Matarsko podolje, which is the home to the most beautiful Slovenian caves. Even though cave beauty could be a subject of debate – since we all like different things – the limestone formations definitely deserve the first spot. And those are aplenty in the podolje.
This time's destination is a cave that has been known for over a decade, but which does not have an domestic reputation. But it can, however, be found on the list of must-see caves of foreign cavers, especially those from the German speaking region. The cave is visited often, but despite that, it is relatively undamaged. Due to the limestone formations and findings of skeletons it was also proposed for closure, but it remains only an unrealized wish.
The cave is classic. The abyss at the entrance is cut off by a shaft, which ends in a short arm in impassable straits and rockfall, while the longer one leads us to the ornamentally sintered hall over cute straits and rockfalls. The limestone formations have flourished here and, like in a fairytale, each formation is more beautiful than the previous one. You cannot see the continuation without ropes, even though the spacious hall can be overcome with free climbing and some imagination.
It is not that far to the end of the cave. The charm of the next hall is a historic rockfall, where the cave probably had a second entrance in prehistoric times. The floors there are precisely alligned. They offer the caver a wonderful place to rest, which could qualify for a lovely retreat for several days. At the side of this pleasant chamber we also peeked into the uninteresting side abyss, but decided to take on the equipping of the last level, where the cave is supposed to end, instead of the descent.
And the cave did indeed end here. It ended in a beautifully decorated hall, but a bit ingloriously nonetheless, without any option of going on. We did shine some light into the upper parts and thought about how to proceed, we even felt like we had seen the shaft. But any kind of climbing without help here would be risky.
Bole, Mojč, Mojca and Blaž, Uroš and Janez were the ones working hard in the cave with me.


This year for Mother's Day I wanted my daughter to make something extra special for all the "moms" in her life and we had a blast creating these Fired Ink Prints. Not only did they all come out unique but they were frame worthy.
I was so excited to try this fired ink project as I had seen it on the Internet numerous times so I ordered up a batch of Alcohol Ink in different colors. Please note this is not a project that your children can do completely by themselves as you do have to set the ink on fire but they can help with all of the other components. It was actually a really nice natural way to introduce the "we don't play with lighters" conversation again with my now five-year old.
So what do you need and how do you make these fabulous artworks? Here we go!
Place a piece of foil in a baking sheet.
Remove the glass insert from a picture frame and place on the prepared baking sheet.
Drop the Alcohol Ink in droplets all over the glass insert- use a variety of colors for interesting patterns and textures.
Pick up the glass and tilt it around to let the ink run across the glass.
Add rubbing alcohol by an eye dropper to let the Alcohol Ink run more freely.
Once you have it the way you like, light the glass on fire with a lighter. )Make sure you are working in an area where nothing else can catch on fire) The fire will last for about 30 seconds. Make sure you set the entire glass insert aflame because this is what adheres the ink to the glass.
Put the glass back in the frame.
Place a white piece of behind glass and put backing on for hanging or displaying.
So as you can see there are a few parts here that you do not want your kids to participate with but they can totally drop the ink and swish it around the glass. My daughter had the best time creating these projects for all our special ladies in our lives- grandma's, teachers, Aunts and more! They will all love their one of a kind pieces of artwork- I know that I have mine on display already.
I would have done this on everything that I had in the house that day that was glass, but I was able to stop myself! Let me know how you make out with your DIY Fired Ink project and happy crafting!
