Brewing a more Sustainable Future
Coors Light extends eco-conscious heritage, focused on all of us doing a little better, and a little more, to create a sustainable future.
This content was written by and is brought to you by our sponsor. It does not necessarily reflect the views of National Geographic or its editorial staff.
Every time you toss an aluminum can into a recycling bin, you're living a legacy pioneered by Bill Coors. The visionary beer brewer helped introduce the idea of recyclable aluminum cans in the 1950s, and Coors Brewing has been a leader in innovative waste reduction, waste conservation, energy, and sustainable brewing practices ever since.
The organization's history shows that building a brand, and a more sustainable future, can go hand in hand. In 2016 Coors Light cut its aluminum usage by 3.8 million pounds. All of its major breweries are landfill-free, with less than one percent of waste generated going to landfills. They've built the most powerful U.S. solar array at any one brewery, in Irwindale, California, which can produce the equivalent of 22 million beers per year powered by the sun. Decreasing water use and reusing brewing waste to make ethanol fuel and feed are also integral to the brand's sustainability program.
The Irwindale, CA brewery uses solar and other energy sources to brew beer. It is the most powerful solar array, at any one brewery, in the country.
"We're not just doing this because it's a current fad or trend," explains Zach Fatla, Coors Light Senior Marketing Manager. "Sustainability has been deep in Coors' roots and DNA since we helped revolutionize the industry with recycling almost 60 years ago. We're proud of that legacy, but it's equally important for us to launch new initiatives and continue walking the walk today."
Coors Light's recent nationwide 'EveryOneCan' program this summer reflects the idea that everyone from brewers to bartenders to consumers, can and should strive to practice environmental stewardship. It includes a partnership with TerraCycle, the global leader in collecting and repurposing hard-to-recycle waste.
Our Purpose is to Repurpose.
"Despite fantastic municipal recycling programs all across the country, when you look deeper you see that only a portion of recyclable materials are being captured," notes Fatla. Working with TerraCycle and other partners, Coors Light will reduce environmental impact in a variety of ways, and will reward consumers with cooler bags made from recycled vinyl and grills made from recycled kegs. Another unique arm of the program ensures that not only cans and bottles, but bottle caps get recycled. Because caps are so small, they often fall through normal recycling streams and go to waste. Special containers with pre-paid shipping labels are distributed to bars so bottle caps can be collected and sent to TerraCycle, where they're recycled and melted down into sheet metal. Qualifying participants are given uniquely-designed bottle cap art to display in their bar, honoring and recognizing their recycling efforts.
Other partnerships include a tie-in with several professional baseball teams to encourage fans to increase recycling at ball parks, and a local collaboration with 'Keep Texas Beautiful' in which Coors donates five cents to the environmental and community engagement organization for every Coors Light served in participating Texas bars.
Coors Light has been recycling before recycling was a thing, pioneering the industry's recyclable can.
Long before corporate commitment to the environment became mainstream, Bill Coors made it a cornerstone of his brewing operation. Not because of public pressure, but because it was the right thing to do. Fulfilling that legacy as a sustainability leader today, and into the future, remains central to the Coors Light culture and programs.
"Each initiative continues our climb toward a more sustainable future," Fatla notes. "But we have to keep going—taking that extra step, being mindful of what we're putting out into the world, and finding ways to give it new life. There's always more we can, and will, do."

Q: Unable to Build and Run Qt Examples I'm having no luck running the Qt examples with Qt Creator. I've tried three so far, but I have been unable to build and run any of them. Each one gives a different message, so I don't have anything specific pinpointing me to the problem.
Here's one error message:

Starting
  C:\Qt\Examples\Qt-5.5\widgets\mainwindows\build-application-Desktop_Qt_5_5_1_MSVC2013_64bit-Debug\debug\application.exe...
  The program has unexpectedly finished.
  C:\Qt\Examples\Qt-5.5\widgets\mainwindows\build-application-Desktop_Qt_5_5_1_MSVC2013_64bit-Debug\debug\application.exe
  crashed

Another example: the imageprovider example displays a dialog that says:

"Could not find the executable, please specify one."

Yet another example, the plugandpaint says:

:-1: error: LNK1104: cannot open file 'pnp_basictoolsd.lib'

For the last one, I've attempted to load the basictools example and set a dependency, but the message is unchanged.
Any hints on how to debug this?

A: 1) Needs more info
2) imageprovider is a lib project, that's why you can't run it.
3) plugandpaint is a part of the tools project, it's not standalone. Open tools.proinstead.

(Sölring Frisian: Hörnem, Danish: Hørnum) is a municipality in the district of Nordfriesland, in Schleswig-Holstein, Germany. It is located on the southern headland of the island of Sylt. The municipality is part of the Amt Landschaft Sylt. The economy is dominated by tourism.

Etymology
Hörnum's name is derived from Hörn ("corner" or "edge").

Geography
Hörnum is located on the southern tip of Sylt. Most of the municipal territory is covered by nature reserves (mostly dunes and heath). The Hörnum Odde is the southernmost point of the island and subject to constant erosion by wind and sea.

History

First settlements
Although fishermen had reportedly settled in the area prior to 1500 AD, the place is first recorded in 1649 as Hornum. The name "Hörnum" was already known to the chronicler Muchel-Madis (* 11 November 1572 in Morsum; † 21 January 1651), who in his chronicles reports a shipwrecking "1571... off Hörnum". In 1648, the area was named "Hörnum" on a map by cartographer Johannes Mejer (1606–1674). The southern tip of the island remained unsettled though for a long time, because not only storm surges but also shifting dunes, which would repeatedly bury houses, made a colonisation difficult. Only in the late 18th century, this effect could be stopped by planting vegetation on the dunes. "On Hörnum", as the entire southern peninsula of Sylt used to be called, there were at first only a few fishermen. A single house stood in the dunes at Budersand from 1765 to 1785. It served for storing flotsam, but was soon torn down by people from Amrum and Rantum. In 1787, only the foundations were left.

Post-1900
There were no buildings in the area until the construction of a Hamburg America Line (HAPAG) pier. Long since, Hörnum had had a natural harbour east of Budersand, which remained largely unnoticed though. Only after a wooden wharf had been constructed, a regular ship line to Hamburg via Cuxhaven took up operations on 29 June 1901. Moreover, a seaside resort line Hörnum-Heligoland-Hamburg became active.

In 1901, the area (still part of Rantum at the time) was connected by the  to Westerland. Up to that point the heath around the harbour was devoid of any buildings. The first local structure was the railway station built in 1903, followed by the HAPAG building. Only in 1905 were the first residential buildings erected.

Most of the initial growth of the village was driven by military construction. The core of today's Hörnum is the Weiße Siedlung (White Housing Estate) around Strandstraße, Hafenstraße and Blankes Tälchen, built by the military starting in 1920. In 1936, construction started on the Rote Siedlung (Red Housing Estate; Steintal, Budersandstraße, Hangstraße) and like the Weiße Siedlung served as housing for the local population, all of whom were employed at the local Fliegerhorst (airbase), built after 1935, or other military installations. There were almost no civilian buildings at the time.

Until the island was connected to the mainland by the construction of the Hindenburg causeway in 1927, the port of Hörnum and the local rail line were the main way for visitors to get on the island. Around 90% of the tourists would use Hörnum as their port of call.

In 1906, the Hörnum water tower was built; after the connection of Hörnum to the island's common water supply it became superfluous and was demolished in 1967.

In 1907, Hörnum got a 33.5 metres tall lighthouse, which was built based on a standardised design. Other such constructions were erected on the island of Pellworm and at Westerhever. From 1918 to 1930, the lighthouse was also used as a school house. Lessons took place at an elevation of 30 meters. At the end of World War I, Hörnum counted 21 inhabitants who were administrated by Rantum. In both World Wars, Hörnum was deemed a strategically important location which needed special defense.

Military importance during the World Wars
The first barracks were built in 1914 for troops of the so-called "Island Guard". At the beginning of World War I, island guards were stationed on Amrum, Sylt and Rømø (today in Denmark), who used light signals to communicate. From the List "Elbow" peninsula in the north to Hörnum in the south, bunkers and shelters were dug into the dunes of Sylt and wired with telephone lines. Mostly elderly, local soldiers were tasked with searching the horizon for hostile troops, but the island did not witness any combat.

During World War II, troops were deployed to the village. The port was mainly used by the Kriegsmarine and a small air field for minor planes had been constructed in the mid-1930s. After 1935, the Luftwaffe had built a naval air station and the "Hörnum Military Settlement (Militärische Siedlung Hörnum)" as a preparation for the war. The outbreak of war prevented the project from being finished and so the gaps in the colony, which was designed as a garden city, have since been filled with post-war buildings. The number of inhabitants in Hörnum exploded due to the opening of the naval air station and the adjacent quarters and rose above 1,000 when the troops brought their families to the island. Shortly after, electricity was available from a local power station, and in 1941 Hörnum was connected to Westerland's water supply.

Hörnum's seaplane base was the location of the first bombs dropped on German soil during the Second World War, on the night of 19 March 1940 during a raid by No 61 Squadron RAF's Handley Page Hampdens based at RAF Hemswell in Lincolnshire, England.

Post-War era
In 1947, Hörnum split from the neighbouring municipality of Rantum and became independent. Only two years later, the village was awarded the title Nordseebad (North Sea resort). An influx of tourists and "New Hörnumers" set in. In 1947, the village briefly provided shelter for more than 2,000 refugees from Germany's former eastern territories and also 40 families from Heligoland dwelt there after the evacuation of their island (occupied by the United Kingdom).

In 1948, a wooden hut was erected with donations from Norway and consecrated as a church. It was named St. Martin. When St. Thomas' church was built in 1970, the St. Martin building shortly served
as a kindergarten and a storage for Strandkorb beach chairs. Since 1974, this so-called Norwegian House is seat of the Wadden Sea Conservation Station (Schutzstation Wattenmeer), an environmental protection society, and since 1989 also serves as a youth club. In 1985, the hut was named after the Hörnum teacher and environmentalist Kuno Ehlfeldt.

Also in 1948, Hörnum was connected to the island's road network. The original concrete slabs track consisted of a single lane and was broadened in 1969.

In 1960, the Kersiegsiedlung colony, known for its thatched roofs, was built in the dunes. The Catholic St. Joseph's church followed in 1962, and in 1969/1970 the Evangelical St. Thomas' church was built according to a design by Niebüll-based architect Martin-Bernhard Christiansen. The latter building constitutes Schleswig-Holstein's youngest historically preserved church. It is built in the shape of a white sail. Another notability is the ex-voto ship which hangs inside the church house — a scale model of the paddlesteamer "Cobra", a Hamburg America Line ship, which from 1901 on contributed greatly to the exploration and development of the Hörnum area.

In 1970, the railway service was discontinued and the track later demolished. It is now used as a bicycle track.

Tourism development since the 1970s
In the mid-1970s a spa and therapy centre was built and opened in 1977.

In 1994, the Pidder Lüng Barracks, which had replaced the former naval station, were closed. After the demolition of all buildings on the site, a golf course with an adjacent luxury hotel was built there.

In 2002, the Hörnum harbour was slightly renovated. The Hörnum Yacht Club was created and a new ticket vending facility for Adler shippings was opened. Later, several neighbourhoods in Hörnum were also renovated.

In 1999, the old therapy centre was closed as it did not provide modern standards for cures any more and was in deficit. It was replaced by a hotel.

Economy

Tourism

Hörnum's original function as a military town has been completely replaced by tourism as the main means of income. The beaches east and west of the village, the port and the dunes provide the village's assets. A popular route for mudflat hiking leads along the eastern shore to Rantum. The Schutzstation Wattenmeer offers information on the Wadden Sea and the salt marshes and promotes the protection of the local landscape among tourists. Another attraction is hiking around the Hörnum-Odde, the island's southernmost edge, which due to erosion is constantly shrinking. In the storm Erwin in winter 2005 alone, the Hörnum-Odde lost 20 metres of land. From this southern headland, the neighbouring islands of Föhr and Amrum are visible.

Government
The current Bürgermeister (mayor) is Rolf Speth.

@GrimmLordRWBY It looks like you are trying to run the new beta version of the game with mods(including Smapi) that haven't been updated for it. You'll either need to revert to the stable build of the game or start updating mods(Smapi first of course).
Thanks I missed the update my mistake.
That's right, sorry. I spent over a day trying to make them work with prestige and it led nowhere. I had a look at luck/cooking while doing that, and the skills they offer at 5/10 both felt underwhelming. That's of course personal opinion, but it doesn't help my motivation to spend further time on it. If adapter needs some changes on the prestige mod side I can merge a PR while original author seems unresponsive. But someone else will have to code it.
Can anyone help me with the Kisekae mod or just getting the clothes mods to work? I cant get it to work and ive looked everyone everywhere and hit every key!
I have Kisekae mod, get dressed, item spawner, updated content patcher, and coiis hats and girl sets mods! The only thing Smapi is saying is that i need to update content patcher but i already have! Any help at all? i bought Stardew couple days ago for my laptop to use mods and have with the game so ive never messed with mods before! Thanks in advance!
Stiil not working i did do the smapi log, hope im doing this right!
@serenamb Looking at your log, you don't seem to have Kisekae installed.
I see, thank you so much for your efforts. I would have offered to help if I had the capability to do so, but sadly I don't. About the author, yeah they've been really unresponsive in all of their mod pages. It's unfortunate since many of their mods are great.
If possible i would like to request the mod "Fishing Automation" be updated.
Is it possible to update Send items to other farmers ?
I don't know if I did something wrong, but there were error messages in SMAPI regarding this mod.
I noticed that too once i really looked at the log. doesnt look like any clothing mod i downloaded isnt on there. maybe im not downloading it right. All I do is, download it and extract all on the zip folder, then put the unzipped folder in my mods folder and done. am i doing it right?
@serenamb That should work. Can you post a screenshot of your C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\Mods folder?
very much looking for a working version of the pelican fiber mod have tried "PelicanFiber3.1.1 unofficial .5 by pathochild but is not working currently . im on latest version but not a beta build . hoping this can be fixed or updated to get working ... use several other mods but not showing any conflicts .
The one you're using is for the beta. The correct version for Stardew Version 1.3.33 can be found in the following link.
Recompiled for Stardew Valley 1.3.35.
Says Coiis girl set doesnt have manifest.json. i looked into the folder and its there but has notepad icon next to it. Is that the problem? im not sure how to fix it that is the problem. ive deleted and redownloaded twice and it still does that.
EDIT: i figured it out! Kisekae atleast! For anyone wondering I googled it and i did was i put Coiis mods in my Stardew Valley folder and not my mods foldred and it worked! Im able to pull open the mod with C, but till gotta figure out how to get the clothes and hats still as they arent showing up in the kisekae thingy in game.

Like many people who are considering launching a coworking space business, the idea may have taken root when you ducked into your favorite coffee shop at midday.
While you waited for a barista to mix your selection, another mixture caught your eye: the number of people—serious-looking people—typing away at their laptops, conducting interviews or meetings, reviewing paperwork, and talking on the phone.
Your first thought—"It's 3 o'clock in the afternoon; don't these people work?"—quickly gave way to the realization that they are at work—just not in an ideal environment.
Without realizing it, you just learned the first of four lessons in the types of customers to target for your coworking space business. Yes, they probably like coffee, and yes, they are serious about their work. But they have outgrown the tight quarters, placemat-sized tabletops, and especially the sound of an espresso machine screeching in the background while they try to read, write, talk, or listen as they conduct business.
These discerning workers represent one of the fastest-growing workplace phenomena of the last 20 years: the so-called independent worker. By 2020, 65 million Americans will belong to this work category, making up 40 percent of the workforce, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
As they eschew the lonely confines of a home office and the noisy distractions of coffee shops, they are turning to shared workspaces, which offer the perks of a professional office environment without the drawbacks of a rigid power structure, set hours, and stuffy formalities. The number of shared workspaces is nearly doubling every year, and they serve an increasingly wide spectrum of workers, according to MBO Partners' annual "State of Independence in America" report.
The trend portends an exciting future for those aspiring to manage a coworking space business—as long as they drill down and learn who is included in that increasingly wide spectrum.
These four lessons will be fundamental in your growth curve as you target customers for your coworking space business. You can count on the coworking experts at Venture X to complete your education with their comprehensive and world-class training programs. But you have to make the first move by phoning for a franchise consultation, perhaps right after you fuel your enthusiasm by ducking into your favorite coffee shop at midday.

Q: Sliding Window: How to fill a window correctly? (JAVA/ArrayList+Array) A small part of my homework requires the implementation of sliding window. In other words, if I have a Message array of [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, etc] I should fill out the window array depending on the size.
In the code below, the window size is mentioned as Max_Size. So assuming my Max_Size is 2, the Window should be filled with [1, 2] then [3, 4] then [5, 6] and so on.
The code doesn't iterate correctly (so if I use the command twice, I get the same content) and the information isn't transferring correctly between the two arrays. I haven't coded anything in a long time, so any help is welcome.
    `void fillWindow() {
    ArrayList <Integer> temp = new ArrayList <> (data.size());
    temp.addAll(data);
    switch (Max_Size) {
        case (1) :
            for (int i = 0; i <= Max_Size; i++) {
                Window.add(i, temp.get(i));
                temp.remove(i);
                next_S++;
            }
            break;
        case (7) :
            for (int i = 0; i <= Max_Size; i++) {
                Window.add(i, temp.get(i));
                next_S++;
                if (Window.size() == Max_Size) {
                    for (int j = 0; j < 7; j++) {
                        temp.remove(j);
                    }
                }
            }
            break;
        case (127) :
            for (int i = 0; i <= Max_Size; i++) {
                Window.add(i, temp.get(i));
                next_S++;
                if (Window.size() == Max_Size) {
                    for (int j = 0; j < Max_Size; j++) {
                        temp.remove(j);
                    }
                }
            }
            break;
    }
    System.out.println("Window Content = " + Window);
    Window.clear();
}`

My problem is as follows: first, I can't get it to iterate correctly; in other words, it continues to print out the same content every time. My second problem is that the information from the message is transferred incorrectly to the window array.
So using the example mentioned above, if Max_Size = 7, instead of printing out [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7] it print out something like [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 9]. So I guess my question is as follows: what did I do wrong, and how can I fix it?
UPDATE
    void fillWindow() {
    ArrayList <Integer> temp = new ArrayList <> (data.size());
    temp.addAll(data);
    int count = 0;
    while (count < Max_Size) {
        Window.add(count, temp.get(count));
        count++;
    }
    for (int i = 0; i < count; i++) {
        temp.remove(i);
    }
    System.out.println("Window = " + Window);
    Window.clear();
}

After reading @Andreas's comment, this is what I have come up with. The code now iterates correctly, but when I use fillWindow() twice at the same run, it still continues showing the same content.
So for example when I do the following:
public static void main(String args[])
{
        fillWindow();
        fillWindow();

}

and the expected answer is [1, 2, 3] then [4, 5, 6] but instead what I get is [1, 2, 3] and [1, 2, 3]. Is that normal?

I used to think that God's gifts were on shelves one above the other and that the taller we grew in Christian character the more easily we could reach them. I now find that God's gifts are on shelves one beneath the other and that it is not a question of growing taller but of stooping lower.

This webpage lists sources of support, advice and information for residents of Vauxhall, Kennington and the Oval.
Our Safer Neighbourhoods Metropolitan Police team are best emailed on oval.snt@met.police.uk. Their phone number is 020 8649 2465 or call 101 re non emergencies, for instance to report a crime that has already happened.
Brixton Police Station is open 24/7.
The police have set up a 'Roadsafe' website for members of the public to report particularly bad driving, such as speeding down our roads, cutting up cyclists and so on. Every report is researched, but the aim is to educate the driver, rather than prosecute. Submissions may be made anonymously if you wish, though that should not be necessary.
Burglar alarms can cause considerable distress so - if you have a burglar alarm - please ensure that your neighbours are able to contact you and/or your key-holder, and that the alarm automatically stops after 20 minutes. (I understand that this is a legal requirement for all alarms fitted within the last 10 or 15 years.) If you are concerned about an alarm that has been sounding for much more than 20 minutes then you should call the Lambeth noise pollution team on 020 7926 5000 - I understand that they are very helpful but they need at least 3 complaints before they can act, so you may need to encourage neighbours to contact them. Assuming the Council need to use force to enter premises, an application to a JP may be made for a warrant to enter and silence the alarm. The officer may take with him such other persons and equipment as he thinks necessary for the purpose of silencing the alarm. This will normally include an electrician and, where force is required to enter premises, a locksmith. Any reasonable costs incurred by the Council in connection with silencing the alarm including entering the premises, silencing the alarm, securing the premises and administration may be recoverable by the authority from the responsible person.

It is good to help charities based in and around where we live - and some of them might help you, too, when you need support. The following charities etc. are based around the Vauxhall/Kennington area.
Trinity Hospice, by Clapham Common, provides care for those dying from cancer and other diseases. The hospice is multi-cultural and non-denominational and helps 1500 patients every year. Care is provided free of charge in wards, through day care or in patients' homes. The hospice depends heavily on voluntary contributions and needs to raise £4m every year. There could hardly be a local charity more worthy of your support so please do give what you can to support their excellent work.
Thames Reach Bondway looks after vulnerable homeless people. Originally based in a building in Bondway - in the middle of Vauxhall Cross - the charity now occupies Graham House just outside the Vauxhall Cross circulatory system. Clients have a range of issues including challenging behaviour, alcohol misuse and physical/mental health issues.

The Tommy's Campaign, based at St Thomas' Hospital, carries out world-class research, and provides education and information, aimed at reducing the heartache caused by premature birth, miscarriage, and stillbirth.
The lives of many important local families and individuals, including Sir Henry Doulton, are celebrated in the West Norwood Cemetery. The Friends of West Norwood Cemetery are well worth your support.

Oldest World War II vet Richard Overton, 107, honored by President Obama
By Lindy Royce-Bartlett, CNN
Updated 10:54 PM ET, Mon November 11, 2013
Richard Overton, age 107, is acknowledged during a ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia on Monday.
Richard Overton, 107, volunteered in World War II and went to Pacific islands
President Obama, audience of 4,000 honor Overton at Arlington National Cemetery
Overton has his vices: "I drink whisky in my coffee. Sometimes I drink it straight"
At 107 years old, World War II veteran Richard Overton credits God for his longevity.
"If man had it, I'd have been dead, but God's got it, and he's keeping me well," said Overton, believed to be the oldest known American veteran of the war.
And in his more than century of life, he's seen both the good and bad.
"He was there at Pearl Harbor when the battle ships were still smoldering. He was there at Okinawa. He was there at Iwo Jima, where he said. 'I only got out of there by the grace of God,' " President Obama said Monday during a Veterans Day ceremony at Arlington National Ceremony honoring Overton.
Overton volunteered for service in 1942, becoming a member of the Army's 188th Aviation Engineer Battalion, an all-black unit that served on various islands in the Pacific.
He doesn't enjoy thinking or talking about it, telling CNN he "forgot all that stuff."
"When the war ended, Richard headed home to Texas, to a nation bitterly divided by race. And his service on the battlefield was not always matched by the respect that he deserved at home. But this veteran held his head high," Obama told the crowd of roughly 4,000 people.
Overton visited Washington for the first time earlier this year. His first stop was the World War II Memorial. Then he saw the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial.
"As Richard sat in a wheelchair beneath that great marble statue, he wept. The crowd that gathered around him wept, too," Obama said Monday as he described the veteran's visit. "To see one of the oldest living veterans of World War II bear witness to a day, to the progress of a nation that he thought might never come."
Monday's audience gave Overton two standing ovations for his service. At the end of the day, he spoke to CNN while taking in the World War II Memorial at night.
Overton said he was happy to meet the President.
"I didn't think there (was) gonna ever be a black president," he said, "but it finally did happen."
And, while giving credit to God for living well over 100, Overton says he doesn't take any medicine and enjoys his vices.
"I drink whisky in my coffee. Sometimes I drink it straight," he said. "I smoke my cigars, blow the smoke out -- I don't swallow it."

From Iranian Prison, U.S. Pastor Saeed Abedini Claims Torture But Defends Faith
International campaign urging his release joined by more than 80 members of Congress.
By Melissa Steffan
The American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ) continues to ramp up its campaign for the release of Iran-born American pastor Saeed Abedini, who remains in prison after being sentenced to eight years for "threatening national security" with his church planting.
ACLJ reports that its "Save Saeed" campaign has topped 330,000 signatures, surpassing its 300,000-signature goal.
This advocacy effort appears to be gaining even more momentum than the movement to release Church of Iran pastor Youcef Nadarkhani (which CT covered regularly), especially now that 80 members of Congress "from both parties signed a Feb. 12 letter urging Secretary of State John Kerry to 'exhaust every possible option to secure Mr. Abedini's immediate release.'"
Fueling the international campaign for Abedini's release is a letter from Abedini released earlier this week. In the letter, Abedini describes the conditions of the prison, but vows to remain strong in his faith. According to Morning Star News, Abedini wrote:
"They are trying to put me under such horrific pressures … so that they can show me that my faith is empty and not real...And after all of these pressures, after all of the nails they have pressed against my hands and feet, they are only waiting for one thing … for me to deny Christ. But they will never get this from me."

Join the party when 3,000 walkers and runners rock the Seacoast Cancer 5K on Sunday, September 23 in Dover, NH. One of the region's largest fundraising events, it's a celebration of life and the lifesaving work of Wentworth-Douglass Hospital's Seacoast Cancer Center.
The Seacoast Cancer 5K is a positive experience from beginning to end, with hundreds of neighbors, friends and family lining the route to cheer. And at the start/finish line, you'll find music, food and activities for the kids. Best of all, every dollar raised supports cancer care right here in our community.
Proceeds from the Seacoast Cancer 5K help provide vital services such as free transportation for patients, comfortable clothing to make treatment easier, and support groups that create community and enhance resilience.
In addition to these ongoing initiatives, funds raised will be used to open a multi-disciplinary technology enabled conference room. This state-of-the-art audio/video conferencing facility will bring the expertise of Massachusetts General Hospital to Wentworth-Douglass Hospital with the touch of a button. By late spring 2018, physicians in Dover and Boston will be able to collaborate in real time, sharing diagnostic images and consulting on difficult cases. Located on the Cancer Center's freshly renovated first floor, this new center will impact nearly every patient and provider, ultimately improving cancer care.

I am about to blow your mind with the easiest and most tasty pottage you would ever eat ala Asandia Hogan. I met Asandia Hogan on Facebook. She is all things Efik and is a walking Efik Encyclopedia. She is a lovley mother and is passionate about the Efik tradition especially when it comes to cooking. Recently, she had asked me to give her a recipe for something Igbo to cook, but we ended up talking about me cooking Edi Kang Ikong or Ekpang Nkukwo instead; as I had expressed my love for the Efik soups. As usual, she was trying to have me do it the right way. But since I don't have all the spices, we decided to go for Ukom Isip; which is a simple coconut plantain pottage. As easy as this dish sounds, it is an old and almost extinct dish. I cooked this easily and also hoped she is would give me a thumbs up.
I find this dish interesting, as both times I have made it, I have fallen into a food "coma" Asandia please tell me why? And I just cannot seem to get enough of it. My ajebutters are not so fond of boiled plantains, but this one, they loved. The idea of marrying the coconut with the dry pepper is amazing. The Efik gods were definitly honored.
Before going into the recipe, I want to talk about one crucial thing and it is the plantains. It is safer to use a medium ripe plantain. They are still slightly green, but also yellow and still hard to the feel. It makes for a perfect plantain pottage. Below is a picture of the type of plantains I used. Notice how I put them close to the green one for comparison.
Okay here is a print ready recipe for your enjoyment!

Its amazing to see another lazy person that loves cooking, i'm passionate about it. GOD bless your soul Nma as you keep enlightening us.

Francisco Xavier de Santiago Palomares, conocido como Palomares (Toledo, 5 de marzo de 1728 - Madrid, 13 de enero de 1796), fue un calígrafo español. Destacó en la España del siglo XVIII como paleógrafo y restaurador de la caligrafía española, además de realizar por su mano numerosos documentos oficiales, y de copias de documentos antiguos con una notable pericia para imitar escrituras antiguas. Inició la polémica que cierra el siglo entre los partidarios de la enseñanza de la escritura mediante la copia de buenas muestras, frente al partido de los que preferían la enseñanza mediante reglas de construcción de los caracteres, con su obra Arte nueva de escribir, a menudo atribuida a Pedro Díaz Morante por lectores y bibliotecarios apresurados.

Biografía

De familia de origen noble, culta y cultivadora de las artes; su padre fue Francisco de Santiago Palomares y su madre Josefa López Molero. Pronto destacó como calígrafo, y ya con 18 años se le encargó ayudar a Andrés Marcos Burriel a copiar los documentos de la catedral de Santa María de Toledo, a raíz de lo cual se le concedió una plaza como oficial de Contaduría de Rentas Provinciales. Una vez en Madrid compaginó su puesto con la restauración de documentos del archivo de España en Roma, documentos de Felipe II recopilados por Juan Verzosa. Colaboró con Francisco Pérez Bayer en el catálogo de manuscritos de la biblioteca del Monasterio de El Escorial. Publicó 18 muestras suyas en la Paleografía del padre Terreros. En 1764 Carlos III lo nombró escribano del archivo de la Secretaría de Estado, cargo que desempeñaría hasta su muerte y en el que realizó muchos trabajos, como tratados internacionales y otros documentos de Estado. Allí fue encargado de auxiliar al archivero Benito Gayoso en el arreglo de los papeles del Archivo de la Secretaría de Estado, que estaban en el Buen Retiro desde el incendio del Alcázar, hasta el nuevo palacio en la plaza de Oriente.

Colaboró hacia 1773 con Jerónimo Antonio Gil en el grabado de los tipos para la fundición de la Real Biblioteca, aunque su influencia en el diseño es escasa y dudosa.

Perteneció a la Real Sociedad Bascongada de Amigos del País.

Obras

 El maestro de leer: conversaciones ortológicas, y nuevas cartillas para la verdadera uniforme enseñanza de las primeras letras [...], Madrid: Antonio de Sancha, 1786.
 Curso completo de ortología, para aprender a leer con propiedad y en poco tiempo [Texto impreso] : dividido en seis escalones o grados, por los cuales llega naturalmente el discípulo a la cumbre de la facultad ortológica, que se reduce a leer con tono y sentido acomodado, a la expresión de los afectos del ánimo, Manila: Manila Imp. de D. Manuel y de D. Félix Dayot, 1839.

An October 27th Freedom of Information Request by a Ms. R Keane via the website What Do They Know asked the BBC to reveal how much it spent on alcohol as well as the names of the merchants which supplied it with alcohol. The BBC gladly complied within the boundaries of the law, revealing that it had spent £43,000 with Majestic Wines alone in the period between October 1st 2013 and October 26th 2014.
The Guardian wasn't too happy about the number, citing the Beeb's "rigorous expense policy" meant to "ensure value for money" for television license holder and asking whether the broadcaster should switch to discount super market chains as opposed to the specialist wine merchant, Majestic.
But is the BBC's booze bill really a big deal? Let's look at the numbers.
The BBC received £3.73 billion in licensing fees according to its Full Financial Statement 2013/14 released in July 2014. That means it spent one-ten thousandth of a percent (0.001%) of its licensing fee budget at Majestic. As for the £145.50 per television license, £43,000 comes to the equivalent of 295.5 households contributing their TV tax to the Majestic enjoyment of the staff which produces endless hours of news and entertainment. And in terms of the BBC staff of 23,000, its accountants can show that the world's largest broadcaster spent £1.88 on alcohol at Majestic per employee.
The BBC's response to the Freedom of Information Request stated clearly that the £43,000 figure does not include alcohol purchases for internal catering and celebratory events such as awards ceremonies and "end of series party" (or the Farewell to Television Centre party in the banner image) so all told, the Beeb is spending more on alcohol than just at Majestic.
But really, any complaints by the media about lavish spending by the publicly-funded entity are ludicrous. Apart from the fact that the amount spent per employee is very likely to be lower than that spent by than their private counterparts (does anyone have figures of how much Sky splashes out on employee parties?), £43,000 is only £29 more than the £42,971 it spent in 2012 and £133 more than in 2010. Furthermore, a BBC spokesman told the Telegraph in the summer of 2013 that "total spend from our preferred supplier amounts to just over £2 per head," more than the £1.88 it spent last year.
All told, £43,000 is a small price to pay for the entertainment of 23,000 government employees. And anyone who argues otherwise need only be reminded of the £30 million of taxpayer money given to the Royal Household in 2012-2013, a house that holds considerably fewer than 23,000 people.

Lacrosse captain Takacs a leader
Posted on March 3, 2021 by Southern News Leave a comment
Being named captain of a sports team is a great honor to the student athlete who has put in the work and dedication to get themselves into that position. It's an even greater honor when it happens in their junior year, which is what Attacker Bayleigh Takacs achieved
She brings a steady work ethic and attitude. She always wants to be the hardest working on the team, but she also wants everyone else to be working hard so she's really a leader by example. She is vocal when she has to be," said Head Coach Kevin Siedlecki. "She's a junior captain, the girls voted for her as captain even though she wasn't physically on the ballot or so to speak."
It is not often that a junior is named captain, as it is usually an honor bestowed upon seniors. Being a team captain requires certain traits, one of them being maturity. Takacs said that she was able to mature at a fast rate due to her sister Alexandra, a senior on the team during her freshman year.
"She was a senior and had her really close friends on the team, in her class and below her, so when I came in I was already so comfortable with them because I had already known them," said Takacs. "Being around all the upperclassmen early on wkind of pushed me to mature a little bit on and off the field. Playing with the older girls really taught me that."
During her high school career, Takacs was always aware of Southern because of her sister and her father, who wrestled for the Owls, but that did not necessarily mean it was always her first choice. Takacs admitted at first, she didn't want to go to the same university as her sister and wanted to go farther away from home.
However, as she got deeper into the recruiting process, the Owls became the top spot for her and she wanted more than anything to play with her sister once again.
"As I got older and a little more mature, I realized I didn't want to go that far from home and I would do anything to play with my sister one last time," said Takacs. "It was kind of an easy choice, I would say. Southern was always on the back of my mind and I'd gone up to see a lot of my sister's games while I was still in high school, so it was always kind of home away from home."
Now, in her junior year, Takacs looks to help lead her team to a more successful season than in years past.
In her first two years, the Owls have gone a collective 4-18, with the team going just 2-15 during her freshman campaign and finishing last in the NE10 standings. Despite a pandemic-shortened season and a 2-3 record before the shutdown, Takacs and the Owls saw more success, as she led the team with 12 goals on the year.
Her play, Siedlecki said is fueled by her high IQ and understanding of the offense.
"She sets herself up on the most difficult spot on the field for offense," said Siedlecki. "She likes to be the assister. She sees the field very well and she likes to see the field and sort of be the quarterback, gets the ball to the right spot and then somebody else scores the goal. She's very happy to take that assisting role and run the offense, that kind of leadership is important."
Even though the 2020 spring season was cut short, Takacs showed how dangerous and effective she can be running the offense. Starting in all five games played, Takacs led the team with 12 goals and 7 assists and was tied for first in points in the Northeast 10 conference with 19, according to Southern's athletic website.
"I have been on so many teams throughout my sporting career and Bailey is one of the best teammates that I've ever had," said Attacker Hailey Gordon, a senior. "She's so caring and so dedicated to this sport, but most importantly, she's so dedicated to being the best teammate that she can be and a good friend."

Baccarat Basics
Written by admin on September 20, 2022 in Gambling with no comments.
Baccarat is a card game played by two or more players. The object of the game is to determine which of three propositions will win the next round. Each player is dealt two cards, one for their Player hand and one for their Bank hand. A third card is then dealt, with the winning hand being the one closest to nine. The cards are valued at their face value, except for the ace, which has a one-to-one value.
Baccarat originated in Europe but has gotten a new lease on life in Asia. It is now becoming more popular among American gamblers, thanks to its high profit potential and proven track record around the world. Baccarat, however, does have one drawback: high-betting players can really hurt the casino's chances of winning.
Baccarat is played with three to six standard 52-card decks. The cards are shuffled, and the croupier will deal each hand. The player then places a bet on the hand he/she believes will win. In a baccarat game, players can bet on the Player hand, the Bank hand, or tie bets.
The game has its roots in France, where it first came to prominence in the early 19th century. The first known description of baccarat is found in Charles Van-Tenac's Album des jeux de hasard and combination (published in 1847). Baccarat soon became popular among all classes of society in Europe and was banned in all but the royal courts. During this time, the game was the most popular game at Watier's club in London, and it even caused the ruin of the famous banker Beau Brummell.
Baccarat has a long history, starting in the gambling salons of France and Italy. Today, it is played in casinos around the world. In fact, the game is so popular that it is now the most played casino game. There are casinos in the United States, Asia, and Europe that offer baccarat.
Baccarat is a game of chance and skill. There are many variations of the game, and one of the most popular is Punto Banco, which originated in France. Interestingly, it is also popular in Macau and Australia. In this game, players take turns as the Banker. In this game, the Banker is always the winner, but in some cases the Banker draws the third card.
The game is played on a two-sided table. Players sit around it, with one banker and two other players on either side. The banker puts down an initial stake, and each player takes turns placing stakes until their half of the table equals the banker's stake. Then the banker deals two cards to himself and to the representatives of each group. The banker must display a total of eight or nine at a time, or two other hands that have a total of eight or nine. When the banker has a total of eight or nine, the bets are paid accordingly.
Baccarat is a high-stakes card game. It is played in casinos all over the world. Almost 90% of Macau casinos earn their revenue from baccarat.

Period "to date" Equations in 2.8
Scorecards By Scott O'Reilly on October 17, 2014
In version 2.8 there's a new equation you can use for calculated metrics called "Period to Date." You can use this to create metrics with values based on rolling sums of other metrics' values or thresholds. For example:
TD(Quarterly,123)
would result in a quarter-to-date sum for metric 123's actual value.
TD(Yearly,123,Goal)
would result in a year-to-date sum for metric 123's Goal.
Equations like this are a lot easier to understand with an example. Let's say you have metric #1570 that is updated every month:
If you created a calculated metric using the equation TD(Quarterly,1570), it would have values that look like this:
And, a calculated metric with the equation TD(Yearly,1570), would look like this:

Germantown doesn't want to share its name
By Oliver Morrison Jun 19, 2014, 3:04pm CDT
The city of Germantown wants its name all to itself. It has asked Shelby County Schools to change the names of three of its schools that have Germantown in their name — Germantown Elementary, Middle and High School — to avoid confusion, according to the Commercial Appeal.In exchange, Germantown would allow SCS non-exclusive rights to use Germantown athletic fields for school sports.The problem, according to Germantown Superintendent Jason Manuel, is that lawmakers and parents are confused that the three Germantown schools are not a part of the Germantown Municipal District.SCS Superintendent Dorsey Hopson said he is passing the naming decision on to the SCS board, according to the Commercial Appeal. Board members are looking to hear from the students, teachers and families at the three Germantown namesake schools before making a decision.But changing the names would not be cheap. "There are all kinds of uniforms, insignia, signs, stationery," Dorsey said in the Commercial Appeal. "It's not just a matter of saying we will change the name of the school."If SCS doesn't change the schools' names, Manuel says SCS could still rent Germantown City athletic fields without an agreement. But SCS would not have priority. "There is so much competition for these fields and use of these fields," Lawton said to The Commercial Appeal. "It would be low on the priority list. They are in city parks, built by taxpayer dollars, made available by the public."An earlier version of this story mistakenly attributed the effort to change the school names to the GMSD. The city, and not GMSD, owns the parks and is requesting the name change.

Fire at Banning Supplier Could Be Biggest Threat to Vinyl Record Sales Since the Rise of CDs
by: Los Angeles Times
Posted: Feb 14, 2020 / 07:41 PM PST / Updated: Feb 14, 2020 / 07:41 PM PST
One morning last week just after 8 a.m., as Sarabjeet Ubbu was starting the day behind the counter of his 7 Star Food Store in Banning, Calif., he noticed black smoke billowing from the roof of the building across the street.
The unassuming beige facility houses Apollo Masters. Owners of a manufacturing plant and a closely held formula for making and mounting a specific mix of lacquer onto aluminum discs, the company supplies a reported 75% of the world's blank lacquers, the shiny circular plates essential for the production of vinyl records.
The vinyl sector is a small but vital part of the music industry. Though it was impossible to know from where Ubbu stood, the smoke pouring from the windowless plant signaled a kind of doomsday scenario. The business of selling vinyl albums, in the midst of an unexpected 14-year surge in sales, could have been facing its biggest existential threat since the rise of the compact disc.
Ubbu stepped outside to call 911, but a police car had already arrived. So he started recording video on his phone. Eventually he retreated into his car on the far side of his property.

Q: C: Correctly freeing memory of a multi-dimensional array Say you have the following ANSI C code that initializes a multi-dimensional array :
int main()
{
      int i, m = 5, n = 20;
      int **a = malloc(m * sizeof(int *));

      //Initialize the arrays
      for (i = 0; i < m; i++) {
          a[i]=malloc(n * sizeof(int));
      }

      //...do something with arrays

      //How do I free the **a ?

      return 0;
}

After using the **a, how do I correctly free it from memory ?

[Update] (Solution)
Thanks to Tim's (and the others) answer, I can now do such a function to free up memory from my multi-dimensional array :
void freeArray(int **a, int m) {
    int i;
    for (i = 0; i < m; ++i) {
        free(a[i]);
    }
    free(a);
}

A: Undo exactly what you allocated:
  for (i = 0; i < m; i++) {
      free(a[i]);
  }
  free(a);

Note that you must do this in the reverse order from which you originally allocated the memory. If you did free(a) first, then a[i] would be accessing memory after it had been freed, which is undefined behaviour.

A: OK, there's a fair deal of confusion explaining exactly what order the
necessary free() calls have to be in, so I'll try to clarify what
people are trying to get at and why.
Starting with the basics, to free up memory which has been allocated
using malloc(), you simply call free() with exactly the pointer
which you were given by malloc(). So for this code:
int **a = malloc(m * sizeof(int *));

you need a matching:
free(a);

and for this line:
a[i]=malloc(n * sizeof(int));

you need a matching:
free(a[i]);

inside a similar loop.
Where this gets complicated is the order in which this needs to happen. If
you call malloc() several times to get several different chunks of
memory, in general it doesn't matter what order you call free() when
you have done with them. However, the order is important here for a very
specific reason: you are using one chunk of malloced memory to hold
the pointers to other chunks of malloced memory. Because you must
not attempt to read or write memory once you have handed it back with
free(), this means that you are going to have to free the chunks with
their pointers stored in a[i] before you free the a chunk itself.
The individual chunks with pointers stored in a[i] are not dependent on each
other, and so can be freed in whichever order you like.
So, putting this all together, we get this:
for (i = 0; i < m; i++) {
  free(a[i]);
}
free(a);

One last tip: when calling malloc(), consider changing these:
int **a = malloc(m * sizeof(int *));

a[i]=malloc(n * sizeof(int));

to:
int **a = malloc(m * sizeof(*a));

a[i]=malloc(n * sizeof(*(a[i])));

What's this doing? The compiler knows that a is an int **, so it can
determine that sizeof(*a) is the same as sizeof(int *). However, if
later on you change your mind and want chars or shorts or longs or
whatever in your array instead of ints, or you adapt this code for later
use in something else, you will have to change just the one remaining
reference to int in the first quoted line above, and everything else
will automatically fall into place for you. This removes the likelihood
of unnoticed errors in the future.
Good luck!

A: You need to iterate again the array and do as many frees as mallocs for the pointed memory, and then free the array of pointers.
for (i = 0; i < m; i++) {
      free (a[i]);
}
free (a);

A: Write your allocation operators in exactly reversed order, changing function names, and you'll be all right.
  //Free the arrays
  for (i = m-1; i >= 0; i--) {
      free(a[i]);
  }

  free(a);

Of course, you don't have to deallocate in the very same reversed order.  You just have to keep track on freeing same memory exactly once and not "forgetting" pointers to allocated memory (like it would have been if you free'd the a first).  But deallocating in the reverse order is a good role of thumb to address the latter.
As pointed by litb in the comments, if allocation/deallocation had side-effects (like new/delete operators in C++), sometimes the backward order of deallocation would be more important than in this particular example.

A: I would call malloc() and free() only once:
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main(void){
  int i, m = 5, n = 20;
  int **a = malloc( m*(sizeof(int*) + n*sizeof(int)) );

  //Initialize the arrays
  for( a[0]=(int*)a+m, i=1; i<m; i++ ) a[i]=a[i-1]+n;

  //...do something with arrays

  //How do I free the **a ?
  free(a);

  return 0;
}

SCOTUS speaks: closing the gaps between international and domestic arbitrations, non-signatories may seek to enforce arbitration agreementsAlerts
Alert / Arbitration Alert
SCOTUS speaks: closing the gaps between international and domestic arbitrations, non-signatories may seek to enforce arbitration agreements
By Christopher Mason, Carolyn Nussbaum and Paul Dewey
Ending a nagging circuit split and narrowing differences between domestic and international arbitration, the Supreme Court has now made it easier for non-signatories to enforce international arbitration agreements in GE Energy Power Conversion France SAS v. Outokumpu Stainless USA LLC, No. 18-1048, 2020 WL 2814297 (U.S. June 1, 2020). In doing so, the Court healed a two-way split in four Circuit Courts of Appeal and made international arbitration agreements under the United Nations Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards (the New York Convention), 21 U.S.T. 2517, T.I.A.S. No. 6997, more like domestic agreements under the Federal Arbitration Act (the FAA), 9 U.S.C.A. §§ 1-16 (West 2020). If a non-signatory to an international arbitration agreement can show that it has a sufficiently strong connection to a signatory, it will now have standing to enforce that agreement in a United States court much as it would with respect to a domestic arbitration agreement.
The winner in the Supreme Court's decision, GE Energy Power Conversion France SAS (GE Energy), manufactured electric motors that a general contractor for Outokumpu Stainless USA (Outokumpu) installed in a steel plant now owned by Outokumpu in Alabama. When the motors failed, Outokumpu sued GE Energy in Alabama state court. GE Energy removed the case to federal court under 9 U.S.C.A. § 205 (West 2020), a statute permitting removal of cases involving international arbitration, and sought to compel arbitration.
The problem for GE Energy was that it did not have a direct contractual relationship with Outokumpu. The arbitration clause was in the relevant contracts between Outokumpu and its general contractor, not the subcontract between Outokumpu and GE Energy, although the contracts with the general contractor did define the "parties" to include subcontractors. Given these facts, GE Energy argued that Outokumpu's claim "arose out of" the agreements with its general contractor; that subcontractors were either parties or intended to be treated as parties in such agreements; that GE Energy was such a subcontractor; and that GE Energy was therefore either a party or that Outokumpu was equitably estopped from treating it any differently than a party when it came to arbitration.
GE Energy initially won this argument. The District Court held that it qualified as a party to the underlying contracts because those agreements defined the terms "Seller" and "Parties" to include subcontractors. Outokumpu Stainless USA LLC v. Converteam SAS, 2017 WL 401951, at *4 (S.D. Ala., Jan. 30, 2017), rev'd 902 F.3d 1316 (11th Cir. 2018), rev'd, 2020 WL 2814297 (U.S. June 1, 2020). Because the court concluded that both Outokumpu and GE Energy were "Parties," it did not reach or decide the equitable estoppel argument. See id. at *1 n.1.
On appeal, however, the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit reversed. See Outokumpu Stainless USA, LLC v. Converteam SAS, 902 F.3d 1316 (11th Cir. 2018), rev'd, 2020 WL 2814297 (U.S. June 1, 2020). It noted that the New York Convention (like the FAA) requires an agreement in writing, but that Article II of the New York Convention also provides that "[t]he term 'agreement in writing' shall include an arbitral clause in a contract or an arbitration agreement, signed by the parties or contained in an exchange of letters or telegrams." Citing the Supreme Court's decision in Arthur Andersen LLP v. Carlisle, 556 U.S. 624, 630-31 (2009), the Court of Appeals observed that GE Energy might well have had standing to enforce the underlying arbitration clause in a domestic arbitration under the FAA. Outokumpu, 902 F.3d at 1327. But, in the Court of Appeal's view, the New York Convention's express reference to "signed by the parties" left less room than under the FAA for theories that would allow non-signatories to arbitrate, whether the specific contract language theory used by the District Court, or theories such as equitable estoppel. See id. at 1326–27. Instead, the Court of Appeals held that "to compel arbitration, the Convention requires that the arbitration agreement be signed by the parties before the Court or their privies." Id. at 1326. Because GE Energy was not an actual signatory to the contracts between Outokumpu and its general contractor, no written agreement existed for GE Energy sufficient to satisfy Article II of the New York Convention. Id.
The Eleventh Circuit's decision widened an existing circuit split on this issue. Like the Eleventh Circuit, the Ninth Circuit had held that non-signatories could not enforce arbitration agreements under the New York Convention. See Yang v. Majestic Blue Fisheries, LLC, 876 F. 3d 996, 1001–02 (9th Cir. 2017). Both the First Circuit and the Fourth Circuit had held the opposite. See Aggarao v. MOL Ship Mgmt. Co., 675 F. 3d 355, 375 (4th Cir. 2012); Sourcing Unlimited, Inc. v. Asimco Int'l, Inc., 526 F. 3d 38, 48 (1st Cir. 2008).
The Supreme Court's decision
The Supreme Court resolved this split by first referring to the FAA and its allowance for the invocation of state law doctrines (such as equitable estoppel) applicable to contracts generally. See GE Energy Power Conversion France SAS v. Outokumpu Stainless USA, LLC, No. 18-1048, 2020 WL 2814297, at *3 (U.S. June 1, 2020) (citing, e.g., 9 U.S.C.A. § 2 and Volt Information Scis., Inc. v. Board of Trustees of Leland Stanford Junior Univ., 489 U. S. 468, 474 (1989)). It next turned to the content of the New York Convention, noting (among other things) that the Convention focuses primarily on arbitral awards, that its Article VII(1) states that the "Convention shall not . . . deprive any interested party of any right he may have to avail himself of an arbitral award in the manner and to the extent allowed by the law or the treaties of the country where such award is sought to be relied upon," and that only one Article—Article II, in just three sentences—"addresses arbitration agreements." GE Energy, 2020 WL 2814297, at *4.
Justice Thomas, writing for the Court, then explained that, because the implementing legislation for the New York Convention appears in "Chapter 2 of the FAA," 9 U.S.C.A. §§ 201-08 (West 2020), and because "Chapter 2" provides that "Chapter 1"—the domestic provisions of the FAA—"applies to actions and proceedings brought under" Chapter 2 "to the extent that [Chapter 1] is not in conflict with" Chapter 2 or the New York Convention, 9 U.S.C.A. § 208, this means that the question before the Supreme Court was "whether the equitable estoppel doctrines permitted under Chapter 1 of the FAA . . . 'conflict with . . . the Convention.'" GE Energy, 2020 WL 2814297, at *4. The conclusion? "[T]hey do not conflict." Id.
The most fundamental reason that no such conflict exists is that "[t]he text of the New York Convention does not address whether non-signatories may enforce arbitration agreements under domestic doctrines such as equitable estoppel" and "nothing in the text of the Convention could be read to otherwise prohibit the application of domestic equitable estoppel doctrines." Id. at *5. While Article II(3) of the New York Convention provided that "courts of a contracting state 'shall . . . refer the parties to arbitration' when the parties to an action entered into a written agreement to arbitrate, and one of the parties requests referral to arbitration," there is nothing in this provision which restricts "contracting states from applying domestic law to refer parties to arbitration in other circumstances." Id. That silence was therefore "dispositive." Id.
In addition, nothing in the New York Convention rejects the use of domestic law. For example, because the provisions in Article II of the New York Convention are not comprehensive, they necessarily leave certain matters to domestic law. "Article II(1) refers to disputes 'capable of settlement by arbitration,' but it does not identify what disputes are arbitrable, leaving that matter to domestic law" and "Article II(3) states that it does not apply to agreements that are null and void, inoperative or incapable of being performed,' but it fails to define those terms," leaving that to domestic law as well. Id. (citations omitted). "Thus, nothing in the text of the Convention 'conflict[s] with' the application of domestic equitable estoppel doctrines permitted under Chapter 1 of the FAA." Id.
While not dispositive, Justice Thomas also reviewed the negotiation and drafting history of the New York Convention, concluding that it "confirm[s] our interpretation of the Convention's text." Id. at *6. He also looked to the "postratification understanding" by other countries concerning the use of domestic law in enforcing the New York Convention. As it turns out, "courts of numerous contracting states permit enforcement of arbitration agreements by entities who did not sign an agreement." Id. (citing, e.g., 1 G. Born, International Commercial Arbitration § 10.02, at pp. 1418–84 (2d ed. 2014)).
What Justice Thomas and the Court did not do was decide whether the federal Executive branch's interpretation of the New York Convention "should affect our analysis." Id. at *7. Noting that "[w]e have never provided a full explanation of the basis for our practice of giving weight to" such interpretation, or "the limitations of this practice, if any," the Court concluded that because its "textual analysis" of the New York Convention was consistent with the Executive branch's interpretation, "there is no need to determine whether the Executive's understanding is entitled to 'weight' or 'deference.'" Id. (citation omitted).
Because the decision by the Court of Appeals below rested on the theory that only a signatory could enforce the arbitration clauses at issue, that court never reached the issue of whether GE Energy "could enforce the arbitration clauses under principles of equitable estoppel or which body of law governs that determination." The Supreme Court therefore remanded the case for further proceedings.
Justice Sotomayor's concurrence
While the Supreme Court's decision was unanimous, Justice Sotomayor issued a separate concurrence, noting a limitation to Justice Thomas's analysis for the Court: "Any applicable domestic doctrines must be rooted in the principle of consent to arbitrate." Id. at *8 (Sotomayor, J., concurring). In her view, this principle "constrains any domestic doctrines under Chapter 1 of the FAA that might 'appl[y]' to Convention proceedings (to the extent they do not 'conflict with' the Convention)." Id. (citations omitted). For example, some theories of equitable estoppel do not account for this principle, while others do. As a result, "[l]ower courts must, therefore, determine, on a case-by-case basis, whether applying a domestic non-signatory doctrine would violate the FAA's inherent consent restriction." Id. Because the Court's opinion in GE Energy itself is consistent with this "foundational FAA principle", she joined it in full.
Even with Justice Sotomayor's note of caution in her concurrence, the Court's decision in Outokumpu is a very strong endorsement of arbitration. By effectively extending its views of domestic arbitration more fully into the sphere of international arbitration, the Court has today increased the likelihood of more such proceedings and, incidentally, aligned our nation with the views of most other nations at a time when such alignment is increasingly rare.

Whitaker said that there are several instances of "ongoing litigation" on the matter and that he could not draw conclusions at this time.
Hours later, Nadler responded that if Whitaker appeared before the panel "prepared to respond to questions from our members, then I assure you there will be no need for the committee to issue a subpoena on or before February 8". But when Jordan asked him whether specific names were in the document - which Jordan charged would go against Justice Department policy - Whitaker demurred.
He instead pointed to committee protocol restricting the amount of time for each members' question, as he tried to blow off that and another question Nadler asked about his oversight of Mueller's probe.
Steve Cohen grilled Acting Attorney General Matt Whitaker Friday over the Mueller probe and the lease of Washington, D.C.'s "Old Post Office" building for the Trump International Hotel.
According to CNN, former Trump associate Roger Stone was "one of the last key campaign associates" to be investigated. Democratic Caucus Chairman Hakeem Jeffries later railed at Whitaker.
Nadler will ask Whitaker to return at a later, undecided date to answer further questions, threatening to "use a subpoena if we have to".
"I have no reason to believe he's not honest, so yes I do believe he's honest", Whitaker said. "As part of that work, I fully intend to call you back for an interview, under subpoena if necessary, and I expect more fulsome answers at that time".
"We have followed the special counsel's regulations to a T", Whitaker told the House Judiciary Committee. He stopped short of asserting executive privilege, the contention that a president needs to be able to rely on confidential counsel from his advisers.
The hearing was the first, and likely only, chance for newly empowered Democrats in the majority to grill an attorney general they perceive as a Trump loyalist and whose appointment they suspect was aimed at suppressing investigations of the Republican president.
But this week, Nadler and the Department of Justice fought in a series of letters released to the public, as Democrats voted to give Nadler the power to subpoena Whitaker should he not appear or refuse to answer the committee's questions.
As IJR Red reported, Collins called the hearing "pointless" and a "character assassination".

Reception

Critical review
Bosley Crowther of The New York Times wrote: "What is done in the name of biography in the Warner Brothers' 'Shine on Harvest Moon' is something which shouldn't be done to a burglar—let alone to the memory of the late Nora Bayes. For this musical film in which that lady and her second husband, Jack Norworth, are supposedly represented in their joint and devoted careers is no more veracious to the real thing than if it were a story of Alice Faye. It is simply another of those musicals which dig back into the past for a score of nostalgic ditties and some old-time vaudeville atmosphere; a film in which a songsmith falls in love with a honky-tonk girl and sticks with her through trials and tribulations until they finally emerge together on top. And if anyone goes expecting to see Ann Sheridan play Nora Bayes, or Dennis Morgan play Jack Norworth, this is to make it understood that you will not."

Box office
According to Warner Bros records the film earned $2,557,000 domestically and $1,149,000 foreign.
