Susannah Streeter, senior investment and markets analyst, Hargreaves Lansdown, has commented on today's emergency budget.
"Kwasi Kwarteng has set off fireworks with this budget, which collides with the Bank of England's efforts to dampen down inflation, while sparking a firestorm of criticism about benefiting the wealthy much more than the poorer sections of society. Scrapping the top rate of tax will return many thousands of pounds to high earners, while lifting the cap on bankers' bonuses is likely to be hard to swallow for low paid workers on the picket lines, calling for pay rises to help them survive the cost of living crisis. Confidence in the UK economy has faded away further with sterling falling below $1.12.
"The Truss administration wants to put a rocket under growth, but there is a risk that after a first boost, the policies could crash and burn, particularly if government borrowing costs soar further. There are signs that buyers of UK government bonds are becoming even more nervous about the government's 'splash the cash' policies, given the mounting debt pile. With inflation set to head above 10%, the Bank of England has warned it will be more aggressive if necessary if the measures brought in by the Truss government inflame hot prices further. Gilt yields have risen again as the scale of the spending has become clear.
"Reversing the National Insurance rise, combined with scrapping the planned rise in corporation tax, scrapping the top level of tax and edging down the 20% threshold by 1 pence in the pound will mean that inflows into government coffers will be significantly reduced just at a time when they are being depleted to fund the energy price freeze.
"Keeping the headline rate of corporation tax lower is not likely to kick-start domestic company investment into automation or re-skilling. The government has missed a trick not bringing in more targeted tax incentives and deductions. These would have helped boost UK productivity by equipping the UK workforce with the skills needed in the decades ahead, particularly due to labour shortages exacerbated by Brexit.
"The VAT cut is what businesses, particularly in the hospitality industry, had been crying out for to help see them through the energy and cost-of-living crises. But there was no help coming from this direction, instead pubs bars and restaurants had to make to promises that corporation tax and alcohol duty won't rise instead. Whitbread, the owner of Premier Inn, J D Wetherspoon and The Restaurant Group have fallen back amid the disappointment that more targeted support was not available. They are left grappling with acute problems, such as big gaps in rotas, due to the exodus of staff.
"More than half of businesses (51%) in the hospitality sector say worker shortages remain a real concern. So even if their customers have more money in their pockets to spend, catering to that demand will remain a significant challenge. Anti-social hours of restaurant and bar work, are not an easy match for family life, so it is unlikely to attract parents who risk seeing benefits reduced for turning down potential work.
"Instead of supporting British businesses with a VAT cut, that benefit was reserved instead for foreign visitors with an aim to boost tourism, who will see what they buy exempt from VAT. The sector will already be experiencing the tailwinds of the weak pound, given that visitors from the US for example will see their dollar to 25% further than just a year ago.
"The enterprise zone concept introduced by David Cameron has been resuscitated as investment zones, with extra tax breaks to boot. The idea is that they will help deliver the levelling up agenda, but they will be uneven and potentially contentious ground. Offering tax breaks to one street or village, but not to the next is likely to lead to dissent at a local level, particularly if planning laws are relaxed to allow more developments on sacred green belts.
"House builders have been clad with a rosy glow on the markets today, after the stamp duty cut confirmation and the prospect of more acquiescent planning departments on the other. But these measures are not likely to help stave off a correction in prices indefinitely. There is the potential that changing the criteria for new developments, allowing companies to build fewer low-cost units, could push up overall house prices even further, with more high-end homes likely to be built. As rates rise further, and people find prices increasingly unaffordable, the market is still likely to stumble.
"The purse strings will be loosened further to fund a wish list of infrastructure projects. This come at a time when raw material prices have been highly volatile, and energy costs have stayed elevated, and workers are highly in demand. More than a third of companies (36%) in construction are still grappling with staff shortages, so the cost of labour could be pushed up further as new contracts are delivered. Shares in infrastructure firms have had a muted reaction to this widely trailed policy, with investors questioning whether the pipeline of schemes could end up becoming blocked."

Callixte Mbarushimana, né le  dans la commune de Ndusu à Ruhengeri (district de Musanze, Rwanda), est un informaticien rwandais d'origine hutu, ancien employé des Nations unies (1992-2001). Il est soupçonné d'avoir participé au génocide des Tutsi en 1994. Le 28 septembre 2010, il est inculpé par la Cour pénale internationale (CPI) pour crimes contre l'humanité et crimes de guerre lors d'un conflit armé 2009 dans le Nord-Kivu et le Sud-Kivu en République démocratique du Congo impliquant les Forces démocratiques pour la libération du Rwanda (FDLR) dont il est le secrétaire exécutif. Libéré faute de preuves suffisantes, il retourne en France le 23 décembre 2011 où il bénéficie du statut de réfugié politique depuis 2003 tout en faisant l'objet d'une information judiciaire ouverte en 2010 après une plainte pour génocide déposée par le Collectif des parties civiles pour le Rwanda en 2008.

Participation présumée au génocide des Tutsi au Rwanda
Callixte Mbarushimana travaille pour le Programme des Nations unies pour le développement (PNUD) depuis 1992 lorsque pendant le génocide, il est chargé de soutenir et d'aider le personnel rwandais resté sur place après l'évacuation du staff civil international. Mais selon 24 témoins, Il aurait non seulement remis des véhicules et des fournitures de l'ONU à des milices telles que les Interahamwe ou à l'armée, mais il est également accusé d'être directement impliqué dans le meurtre et l'ordre de tuer 32 personnes, y compris les employés qu'il était censé protéger, parmi lesquelles Florence Ngirumpatse, directrice du personnel du bureau de développement des Nations unies à Kigali et douze autres personnes, pour la plupart des enfants tutsis, âgés de 8 à 18 ans qu'elle avait recueillis dans sa maison.

Callixte Mbarushimana était déjà connu pour avoir participé à des rassemblements anti-Tutsi avant le génocide. Les éléments de preuve recueillis par le TPIR qui a préparé le projet d'acte d'accusation contre lui indiquent qu'il avait déjà formé une milice avant le génocide. Selon Gregory Alex, originaire des États-Unis, directeur du département des urgences au PNUD en janvier 1994:

Callixte Mbarushimana est encore employé par les Nations unies au Kenya, en Angola et au Kosovo avant d'être arrêté en avril 2001 à la suite d'un mandat d'arrêt et d'une demande d'extradition du Rwanda que le Kosovo refuse car la peine de mort y était alors encore en vigueur.

En septembre 2002, le procureur général du TPIR, Carla del Ponte, décide de ne pas le poursuivre faute d'éléments suffisants. Selon Farhan Haq, porte-parole des Nations unies, le Conseil de sécurité invite le TPIR à se concentrer sur les .

En 2003, Callixte Mbarushimana obtient le statut de réfugié politique en France et nie catégoriquement les accusations de meurtres portées contre lui. En 2004, il obtient une compensation pour le salaire perdu après son licenciement des Nations unies en 2001, une décision qui, selon certains fonctionnaires et enquêteurs, remet en question la volonté de l'organisation de faire face à de graves fautes dans ses rangs.

Accusation par la Cour pénale internationale
Le 19 juin 2004, la République démocratique du Congo (RDC) décide de saisir la Cour pénale internationale (CPI). Le 23 juin 2004, le procureur  ouvre une enquête impliquant entre autres Callixte Mbarushimana.

En juillet 2007, Callixte Mbarushimana devient le secrétaire exécutif des Forces démocratiques pour la libération du Rwanda (FDLR), un groupe armé de rebelles hutus basé en RDC.

Le 11 octobre 2010, Callixte Mbarushimana est arrêté en France en vertu d'un mandat d'arrêt de la CPI pour crimes contre l'humanité et crimes de guerre qui auraient été commis en 2009 par le FDLR contre des civils dans le Nord-Kivu et le Sud-Kivu (RDC). Les juges de la CPI affirment qu'il existe des motifs raisonnables de croire que Callixte Mbarushimana, en tant que secrétaire exécutif de les FDLR portent la responsabilité pénale de ces attaques, y compris le meurtre, la torture, le viol, la persécution et les actes inhumains. Le mandat allègue qu'il a .

Le 25 janvier 2011, Callixte Mbarushimana est extradé vers la CPI pour y être poursuivi à La Haye.

Libération et retour en France
Le 16 décembre 2011, la chambre préliminaire I de la CPI, à la majorité de deux contre une, rejette les charges retenues contre Callixte Mbarushimana, au motif que les preuves sont insuffisantes pour supposer qu'il avait contribué aux crimes de guerre dans le Nord et le Sud-Kivu. L'appel du procureur contre une libération immédiate est rejeté et Callixte Mbarushimana est libéré le 23 décembre 2011. Il décide de retourner immédiatement en France où il avait déjà le statut de réfugié. Le 30 mai 2012, la Chambre d'appel confirme la décision de la CPI de ne pas le poursuivre.

Mais dès son arrivée à Paris, il est placé sous contrôle judiciaire par la justice française à la suite de sa mise en examen en 2010 pour son rôle présumé dans le génocide de 1994, après une plainte déposée en 2008 par le Collectif des parties civiles pour le Rwanda. Depuis, l'enquête a été clôturée mais le parquet doit encore rendre ses réquisitions.

ABOUT GLYCANOSTICS
Glycanostics is an innovative start-up company established in 2017 to bring its revolutionary cancer diagnostics products to the US and EU markets. The company was founded by two remarkable scientists Jan Tkac, DSc and Tomas Bertok, PhD who got international recognition for their scientific works, prestigious grants and awards winners such as Scientists of the year (Slovakia), European Research Council (ERC) Consolidator grant, Marie Skłodowska-Curie actions ITN, Qatar National Research Fund.
The mission of Glycanostics is to establish glycan-based, accurate, affordable and non-invasive tests for cancer diagnostics in early stages which could save thousands of people's lives and prevent unnecessary treatment. Diagnostics is done by the analysis of glycan changes on specific proteins like a prostate-specific antigen (PSA) in a non-invasive way i.e. directly in human serum. Thus, molecular changes of the proteins like PSA are applied for cancer diagnostics. The tests are designed to help doctors to make a proper decision about a need to perform a biopsy or to check the patient after the biopsy which misses 30% of prostate cancer patients. Prostate cancer disease can be treatable and early diagnostics is the key!

'The Post' Assembles the Spielberg/Hanks/Streep Dream Team For One Relevant Story
Posted on Monday, March 6th, 2017 by Jacob Hall
Steven Spielberg has always done a fine job of rotating between his entertainments and his more serious pictures. After all, we're talking about a filmmaker who somehow managed to release Jurassic Park and Schindler's List in the same year. Note how he balanced The Adventures of Tintin with War Horse and Bridge of Spies with The BFG. It's no coincidence that the upcoming Ready Player One will arrive shortly before The Kidnapping of Edgardo Mortara. Spielberg is a storyteller with many interests and we are better for it.
And on a day that confirmed he will soon get around to finally making Indiana Jones 5, it only makes sense that we would also learn that Spielberg is making a movie about the infamous "Pentagon Papers," with the thespian dream team of Tom Hanks and Meryl Streep set to star.
The film is called The Post and Deadline reports that Spielberg has just signed on, making him the third member of an unbeatable Hollywood triumvirate. The script is by Liz Hannah and it was bought last year by Amy Pascal's Pascal Pictures. We can probably assume that it's a pretty, pretty good script.
This will mark the fifth time Spielberg has directed Hanks, but only the second time he has directed Streep (she voiced the Blue Fairy in A.I.: Artificial Intelligence). However, this will be the first time Hanks and Streep have shared the screen together, despite having shared producer credits offscreen in the past. The chance to see these three, all legitimate masters of their craft, collaborate on a single movie is surely worthy of an admission cost.
Set in 1971, The Post follows The Washington Post's showdown with the United States government over the "Pentagon Papers," a classified military document that was leaked to the press by military analyst Daniel Ellsberg. The report offered evidence that the Johnson administration had lied to the American people and Congress alike, secretly escalating the War in Vietnam. Washington Post editor Ben Bradlee and publisher Kay Graham joined forces with the New York Times, fighting for the right to publish the papers. Hanks will play Bradlee while Streep will play Graham.
Although set 46 years ago, the story behind told in The Post is still relevant today. In an age where the President of the United States has declared war on journalists and longstanding news institutions, it's all anyone can do to remind the American people of the importance of facts and the men and women who have dedicated their lives to collecting them and putting them on record. After all, the press is a vital force in any free society – when our leaders overstep, our newspeople are required to call them on it. That's been a cornerstone of American ideals since the founding of the nation, it was a cornerstone during the days of Richard Nixon, and it's more important than ever in 2017.
Sorry to get political on you, but we live in political times. There is no way these people making this movie right now aren't sending a message. Welcome to the world of post-Trump art.
While this sounds like it could be the cinematic equivalent of eating your vegetables, Spielberg's Lincoln is a case study in how to educate and enlighten while also making the most entertaining film imaginable. Spielberg wears his personal politics on his sleeve (right alongside his big 'ol sentimental heart), but he has always been, first and foremost, our greatest entertainer. The Post could be rousing and "important," but it's almost surely going to be fun as well.

Modest Jakowlewitsch Kittary (; *  in Perm; †  in St. Petersburg) war ein russischer Chemietechnologe, Zoologe und Hochschullehrer.

Leben
Kittarys Vater war der verbannte polnische römisch-katholische Adlige Jakow Franzewitsch Kittary, der in Kungur und Perm und dann im Gouvernement Perm als Landvermesser diente und 1823 in Perm die Tochter Anastassija Gawrilowna des Titulärrats (9. Rangklasse) Gawriil Iwanowitsch Sorokin geheiratet hatte. Kittary hatte 6 Geschwister.

Nach dem Schulabschluss am Permer Gymnasium ging Kittary nach Kasan und studierte an der Kaiserlichen Kasaner Universität (IKU). Insbesondere hörte er die Vorlesungen Nikolai Nikolajewitsch Sinins und nahm an dessen praktischen Übungen teil. Er schloss 1844 das Studium in der naturwissenschaftlichen Klasse ab und erhielt eine Goldmedaille für seine Untersuchung von Schwefelcyanverbindungen. Anschließend war er Laborant in dem von Sinin geleiteten Laboratorium für Chemie und Technologie. Er schlug konstruktive Änderungen für die chemischen Apparaturen vor zur Verbesserung der Versuchseffizienz. Gleichzeitig führte er mit Sinins Unterstützung zoologische Untersuchungen durch. 1845 verteidigte er mit Erfolg seine Dissertation über die Familie Störe im Allgemeinen und das Skelett dieser Fische für die Promotion zum Magister der Zoologie. 1847 folgte die erfolgreiche Verteidigung der Doktor-Dissertation über die Anatomie der Galeodes aranoeides und Galeodes dorsalis der Walzenspinnen für die Promotion zum Doktor der Naturwissenschaften 1848.

1848 wurde Kittary von der IKU zum Adjunkten gewählt und beauftragt, eine Vorlesung über Analytische Chemie für Mathematiker, Naturwissenschaftler und Technologen zu halten. Im selben Jahr übernahm er von Sinin die Leitung des Laboratoriums, als Sinin Kasan verließ. 1850 wurde Kittary außerordentlicher Professor und 1853 ordentlicher Professor des Lehrstuhls für Technologie.

Kittary war zur Londoner Industrieausstellung 1851 geschickt worden, um die dortigen Exponate wissenschaftlich zu bewerten. Sein Reisebericht mit Analyse der Ausstellung wurde in den Otetschestwennyje Sapiski veröffentlicht. Mit den gemachten Erfahrungen organisierte er 1852 die Kasaner Landwirtschaftsausstellung und 1854 die Wjatkaer Bezirksausstellung. Er hielt sehr populäre öffentliche kostenlose Vorträge über verbesserte Technologien für die verschiedenen Gewerbetätigkeiten, aber die Industriellen, an die sich die Vorträge in erster Linie richteten, erschienen kaum. Er wiederbelebte die Kasaner Ökonomische Gesellschaft, deren Zeitschrift er gründete und 1854–1857 redigierte. Er veröffentlichte dort über 150 Aufsätze über Kerzenherstellung, Seifenherstellung, Gerben, Bienenzucht und andere Gewerbetätigkeiten. Entsprechend einem Projekt Kittarys bauten die Brüder Krestownikow das Kasaner Stearinkerzenwerk, das ein der bedeutendsten russischen Fettverarbeitungsbetriebe wurde. Unter dem Einfluss Kittarys und seiner Schüler wurden in vielen Fabriken und Werken der Region neueste und verbesserte Produktionsmethoden eingeführt.

1857 ging Kittary nach Moskau und wurde ordentlicher Professor auf dem Lehrstuhl für Technologie, Landwirtschaft, Forstwirtschaft und Architektur (ab 1863 Lehrstuhl für Technologie) der Physikalisch-Mathematischen Fakultät der Kaiserlichen Universität Moskau (IMU), der auf Wunsch der Moskauer Kaufleute und Fabrikanten auf deren Kosten eingerichtet worden war. Dazu leitete Kittary das 1859 eröffnete Technologie-Laboratorium der IMU. Auf seine Initiative wurde 1867 an der IMU ein Industriemuseum gegründet, in dem Kittary und andere Professoren öffentliche Vorträge hielten. 1873 wurde das Museum geschlossen. Auch lehrte er Chemische Technologie und Analytische Chemie an der Moskauer Gewerbeschule. Er war Inspektor in der Moskauer Akademie für Praxis der Handelswissenschaften, wo er das Unterrichtsniveau anhob und ein chemisch-technisches Laboratorium eröffnete. Auf Bitten verschiedener Ministerien hielt er für Akzise-Beamte eine öffentliche Vorlesung über Destillation und für Intendantur-Beamte eine öffentliche Vorlesung über Warenkunde. Unter seinem Einfluss wurde die Intendantur reformiert, und er wurde Vorsitzender des neuen wissenschaftlichen Komitees der Intendantur.

Kittary setzte sich für den Vorrang der technischen Bildung ein wie auch Alexander Stepanowitsch Jerschow. Zusammen diskutierten sie dies mit Iwan Kondratjewitsch Babst, der die Notwendigkeit der verbreiteten Basisbildung und Allgemeinbildung als Grundlage für die technische Bildung betonte. 1858–1859 war Kittary der Redakteur der neuen Zeitung Promyschlenny listok, die über Industrie- und Technik-Neuigkeiten im In- und Ausland berichtete und in der er die meisten Artikel selbst schrieb. Ab 1868 redigierte er die russische Ausgabe des großen Werks Chemistry, Theoretical, Practical and Analytical as applied and relating to the Arts and Manufactures von James Sheridan Muspratt.

Auch redigierte Kittary die Zeitschrift der Moskauer Gesellschaft für Landwirtschaft. 1868 gründete er auf einem Landgut in der Nähe des Dorfes Andrejewka bei Moskau einen für damalige Zeiten fortschrittlichen Bauernhof. 1877 eröffnete er auf eigene Kosten in dem Nachbardorf Nowinsko-Goretowskoje eine Zweiklassenschule mit einem Heim für 20 Personen für Kinder, die erfolgreich die Landgrundschule abgeschlossen hatten.

1879 ging Kittary nach St. Petersburg und wurde Vorsitzender des Technik-Komitees bei der Hauptintendantur des russischen Kriegsministeriums.

Kittary war in 1. Ehe verheiratet mit der Tochter Jewgenija des Geologen Pjotr Iwanowitsch Wagner. Kittary hatte keine Kinder.

Kittary starb in St. Petersburg und wurde an der Erlöserkirche in Andrejewka begraben. Dort wurde zu seinem Gedenken eine Kapelle errichtet.

The Globalization of Calabar drums
Drums with antelope skin used during a meeting of the Ékpè society, Bechei-Umon community, Middle-Cross River region, Cross River State, Nigeria. Ivor Miller photograph, March 2010.
The indigenous drums of the Cross River region of southeastern Nigeria and southwestern Cameroon are distinctive for their "wedge and ring" method of tightening the skin. These drums are a regional phenomenon; they are not identified with any particular ethnic community, nor with any specific cultural group or initiation club. They are historically found from southeastern Nigeria to Gabon. Whereas most communities in the vast region used this type of drum, some initiation societies have also used additional and distinctive drums exclusively for their club.
Meyer (1997) map of "wedge and ring" style drums in the center of the Gulf of Guinea
Through the centuries-long trans-Atlantic slave trade into the Caribbean (1500s-1800s), people from this African region forcibly arrived in the hundreds of thousands. Their cultural influence is evident in many ways, among them the persistent use of drums with "wedge and ring" tightening methods. These are found on the island of Cuba, in Panamá and Colombia, Suriname, and recently, wherever members of their communities have migrated.
Identifying a common morphology in these drums is merely the first step in understanding their cultural history. The selection of materials is also important, because in many cases symbolic skins and wood are used depending on the ritual or leisure context they are used in. Also, the function of the drum must be studied, because this determines the spectrum of sounds produced through the drums. For example, preliminary research has found completely different contexts for the use of "wedge and ring" drums in western Cuba and in Panamá. In western Cuba, these drums are used exclusively by initiated members of the Abakuá mutual-aid society, who use the lead drum to communicate to other sacred instruments inside a temple, as well as to instruct the movements of an "Íreme" masked dancer representing a "bush spirit ancestor" of the group. In Panamá, drums with the same morphology are used to enliven public festivals like carnivals, cultural gatherings, as well as annual processions to celebrate the patron saint of a particular city.
Used in quite different contexts, the sounds produced by the Cuban "Bonkó" and by the Panamanian "Tamborito" are quite different, as are the rhythms played on them. In Suriname, where I don't have any recorded examples, the "wedge and ring" drum is used in a spiritual context, according to Gilbert (1940), who wrote:
"The religious life of the Surinam Negro is called 'Winti' and is like 'Voodoo', a belief full of spirits, respect for elders, an extensive cosmology, and an African pantheon; a religion with ritual dances, sacred drums and dance songs. The Surinam Negroes accompany their songs almost exclusively with percussion instruments. The ritual Winti-drums have a tri-fold ability: they evoke the deities and the spirits of the ancestors; they interpret the messages of these supernatural beings; finally they send these gods back to their abode when the ceremony has ended" (Gilbert 1940, translated by Elsio Jansen).
The following is a visual comparison of West and Central African "wedge and ring" drums on the African continent and Bioko island, then in Cuba, Colombia, Panama, Suriname and most recently in Paris and New York City. This story is another example of the heroic efforts of enslaved Africans and their descendants in preserving their cultural heritage and therefore their identify as people from a known source that continues to give them sustenance. These introductory sketches are presented as a guide for future scholars to study this unexplored history

8) "Wedge and ring" drums in Suriname (Gilbert 1940)
Describing the above illustrated drums of Suriname, Gilbert wrote:
"The 'mandrom' is of medium size. The 'langa drom' is a long drum with a diameter of hardly a hand's-breadth. The 'agida' is used for the ground and base rhythms. The Surinam 'agida' finds her equivalent in the 'mama' drum from the Haitian drum-family mentioned earlier. Both are the biggest in the whole battery and both give the ground-rhythm, the basis of the songs. Further, according to the Surinam Negroes, the 'agida' is the drum that calls up the earth gods, among them the 'gron mama', the earth mother who is so important. When we combine all these things, the association of the concepts — 'mama' drum, 'earth-mother' drum, biggest measurements, the basis of the life-rhythm, — points to the continuation of ancient mother relations in Afro-American life in spite of all contact with the world of the white people" (Gilbert 1940, translated by Elsio Jansen).

Q: Nine years ago I had a child with my former lover who was and still is married. When our relationship ended I respected his wishes to keep it and our son a secret, to prevent his family suffering any indignity as a result of his behaviour. In return he paid a generous sum into my bank account each month which also covered school fees. Two months ago the money stopped and I have just discovered that my former lover died of a sudden heart attack. It is unlikely that he would have made any provision for us in his Will. Is there any way I can make a claim on his estate on behalf of our son?
A: You do not say whether your former lover is named as your son's father on his birth certificate. If not you would need to prove he was the father. Assuming you can achieve such proof, yes, you would be able to make a claim on the deceased's estate under Section 3 of The Inheritance (Provision for Family and Dependants) Act 1975.
The 1975 Act enables a child of the deceased to make a claim on the estate of a parent provided they can show they were financially dependent on the deceased and that the deceased did not make adequate provision for them in their Will or by an intestacy. Under Section 3 of the 1975 Act the court will take into account factors including the financial resources and needs of the applicant, other applicants and beneficiaries of the deceased's Will. The court will also take into account any obligations and responsibilities of the deceased towards any applicants and beneficiaries, the size of the estate, any physical and mental disabilities of applicants and beneficiaries and other relevant details. You should seek immediate in-depth advice from a reputable law firm.

Sex + Dating
Anyone Who Says They've Slept With This Many People Is Probably Lying
By Julia Reiss
Published on 8/8/2016 at 12:05 AM
Photodiem/Shutterstock
How many people have you slept with? OK... now how many people do you tell other people you've slept with?
According to recent research, the new perfectly acceptable number of sex partners to have had is seven. That's down a sad three people from the "Goldilocks number" announced earlier this year. But hang on… because the lucky-number-seven study also reported that while most people miraculously claim to have had that exact number of partners, nearly half of all the respondents also admitted to lying about how many people they've been with.
Hm… according to our calculations, that means if someone tells you they've slept with seven people, they're probably full of crap. Here's how it all breaks down.
Lying is unisex
The fact that people lie about their sex lives may come as little or no surprise to, you know, everyone. Perhaps more interesting, however, is that when it comes to the art of sexual deception, the research shows that men and women lie at almost the same rate... well, no, men are about 10% more likely than women to lie about this stuff. But hey: at least it's more equitable than the wage gap!
Women and men lie in just about every sex study.
Double standards are real
It's 2016! But while we may have a woman president come November, the study (and the rest of the world) suggests women are still afraid of being perceived as sluts. According to the numbers, women are 5% more likely than men to decrease the number of sexual partners they've had -- while men inflate their sexual resumés twice as often as women.
Which is just part of the ever-mounting evidence that women and men lie in just about every sex study -- all in accordance with what they perceive as cultural expectations of their gender.
How many is too many?
When it comes to how men and women define promiscuity, the sexes are shockingly aligned.
Women consider men Lotharios if they've bedded 15 people or more. And men start to get judgy of women around partner number 14. Perceptions of promiscuity also varied across the globe... or, at least amongst European and North American countries included in the study.
The French are the most liberal, quelle surprise. In France, you can have up to 16 lovers before new ones start throwing their world-renowned judgment your way. The Italians and the Dutch were most conservative, preferring their SOs to have no more than 12 and 11 partners, respectively. I guess being home to the Vatican doesn't help much with progressive attitudes toward sex. We're not quite sure what's going on in the Netherlands, though.
Deal breakers
Honesty may be the best policy, but only if you're OK being single. Those of you whose sexual histories have an extended BC (before couple!) era, you should know that the chances of getting dumped for being too promiscuous (30% said it's "very" or "somewhat" likely) far outweigh your chances of getting kicked to the curb for not being promiscuous enough (only 8% said they'd be very or somewhat likely to do so).
Yeah, we don't like it either. But hey -- 56% of men and 48% of women don't want to know all these gory details anyway, according to a 2015 "Singles in America" study by Match.com. So maybe it's enough to offer a ballpark number when asked -- and to only reveal the important stuff... like whether you've got a recently clean bill of health.
If you are going to come clean to your SO about your record, it's best to do it within the first four months. That's the time frame the study found is most palatable to men and women. It makes sense; if your sexual past is going to drive you apart, best to have that happen before you get too attached -- or worse, move in. If it's your partner doing the sharing, remember you can rest assured that, should they say that magic number seven, they're almost definitely stretching the truth.

Norway suspends future arms exports to Saudi Arabia
Decision made in relation to recent developments in Saudi Arabia and unclear situation in Yemen, Norway's foreign ministry says
Riyadh has been under increased pressure over its role in humanitarian crisis in Yemen (AFP)
MEE and agencies
Published date: 10 November 2018 00:07 UTC | Last update: 4 years 2 months ago
Norway has suspended new licenses for arms exports to Saudi Arabia, becoming the second country after Germany to do so amid weeks of pressure on Riyadh over the killing of Jamal Khashoggi and the war in Yemen.
A spokesman for the Norwegian foreign affairs ministry would not say on Friday whether the decision was made because of Khashoggi's murder in the Saudi consulate in Istanbul on 2 October.
"We have decided that in the present situation we will not give new licenses for the export of defence material or multipurpose goods for military use to Saudi Arabia," Foreign Minister Ine Eriksen Soereide said in a statement.
UK, France and Spain to maintain arms sales to Saudi Arabia
The decision comes a week after Soereide summoned the Saudi ambassador to Oslo to protest Khashoggi's assassination.
It was taken after "a broad assessment of recent developments in Saudi Arabia and the unclear situation in Yemen", the ministry said.
The move also comes about three weeks after Germany said it would suspend future arms sales to the Saudi government over the killing of Khashoggi, a Saudi critic who was living in self-imposed exile in the United States.
After weeks of altering their account of what happened - from saying Khashoggi left the consulate shortly after he arrived, to admitting he died in the building, to saying his murder was premeditated - Saudi Arabia remains under pressure to hold the journalist's killers accountable.
The Saudis have arrested 18 men in relation to the killing, but critics say the country has sought to shield its powerful crown prince, Mohammed bin Salman, from any responsibility.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said last week that the order to kill Khashoggi came from "the highest levels" of the Saudi government.
Countries under pressure to act
On 22 October, German Chancellor Angela Merkel said Germany would halt weapons exports to the kingdom until Khashoggi's killing - which she called a "monstrosity" - was properly investigated.
"Regarding the question of how to deal with permits already granted, or goods that have not yet been delivered, there are intensive discussions in the government on this at the moment, and we will have to examine this very carefully," a German government spokesman, Steffen Seibert, said at the time.
Countries around the world have been under increased pressure to suspend existing and future weapons deals with Saudi Arabia over the Khashoggi case, as well as in relation to Riyadh's role in the devastating war in Yemen.
A Saudi-led coalition launched a massive military campaign in the country in 2015 to root out Houthi rebels who had taken the Yemeni capital, Sanaa, and ousted then-president Abd Rabbuh Mansour Hadi.
The war has plunged Yemen into an increasingly dire humanitarian situation and the threat of famine is widespread. As many as 56,000 people have been killed as a direct result of armed violence, according to a recent estimate.
Khashoggi killing fuels renewed push to end US support for Saudi war in Yemen
Despite this, and amid widespread calls from citizens and human rights groups, few Western countries have actually suspended arms agreements with the Saudi government.
France, the UK and Spain have signalled they will keep selling weapons to Riyadh, saying they intend to wait until the facts of the Khashoggi case are clear.
Canada's Justin Trudeau said he would consider freezing arms export licenses to Saudi Arabia, but that suspending an already approved $12bn deal with Riyadh would cost Canadian taxpayers $1bn.
A bill to halt future US arms sales to the Saudis was introduced in Congress late last month, and several US politicians have demanded concrete answers over Khashoggi's killing.
Still, while US President Donald Trump has said he's unsatisfied by Saudi explanations for the killing, he has also repeatedly said he doesn't intend to suspend a $110bn deal to sell US weapons to Riyadh.

Ali Shahbazi is a well known cultural figure, activist, artist, architect, and musician. His paintings and artworks cover a variety of subjects focusing on social and cultural issues, specifically women's rights throughout Iran and Middle East.
Ali incorporates his vast experience of traditional and contemporary Middle Eastern painting with new elements to create an artwork that tells timeless stories. Most of his paintings use a combination of oil and acrylic paint. He believes painting and architectural designs work together in order to produce a highly creative and yet pleasantly familiar work of art.
Having grown up the son of a famous Iranian art, Abbasali Shahbazi, his instinct for art became second nature. Being raised under the watchful eye of an Islamic government, Ali's art became an artistic expression of not just one man, but of an entire nation struggling with cultural, political and religious identity. His brilliant and covert capacity to convey political, social and religious strife in Iran flourished. Ali's paintings began to speak for those who could not.
Use of symbols in Ali's paintings creates art-word, originating fundamentally in the crossing of two realities in today's Iran: the one hoping to embrace modernism and growth and the one nostalgic for the shadow of the past. Often his paintings bring the viewer to a crossroads where voluntary or not, a deep soul-searching is provoked.
Two of Ali's best-known works includes, 'Beyond Borders' and 'Behind The Mask of Fear'. They question the complicated relationship between contemporary Iranian society and its inherent traditional gender roles.

Exclusive - Wedding Bells Might Soon Ring for FCS and WFS
Cargo Forwarder Global has received reliable information that WFS is in very close discussion with Fraport Cargo Services (FCS) on either a takeover of FCS's cargo handling business or alternatively the formation of a joint venture between both companies.
It is said that these discussions, which apparently were initiated before the takeover of WFS by Platinum Equity, have reached a decision stage and that the results would be published in the coming weeks or even within days. Then it will be known who buys the rings.
Investor Platinum Equity intends to up WFS's value
It's a little more than two months ago that Worldwide Flight Services (WFS) changed owners.
LBO France who had owned WFS for some years sold the buoyant air cargo, ramp handling and passenger service company to Platinum Equity, a U.S.-based investment outfit which is said to have an investment war chest amounting to over US$ 3.75 billion.
The news of the takeover was broken at this year's Air Cargo Europe show in Munich.
At that time the WFS President and CEO was quoted as saying that there will be new developments and investments by his company in the near future.
Likely partners?
At first glance one might wonder where FCS and WFS really fit together.
FCS which is a 100 percent daughter of airport manager Fraport is the largest cargo handler at Frankfurt airport.
Although they have the majority of the air cargo handling there, they are still considered by some as being only a local player as far as cargo handling and documentation is concerned.
Fraport has holdings in various other airports, but none which are specifically related to cargo handling.
Is he buying the rings? WFS Chief Olivier Bijaoui / courtesy WFS
Big player
WFS on the other hand is seen as being the world's largest air cargo handling entity, working out of more than 140 airports in 22 countries.
Their airline customer portfolio is made up of around 300 airlines worldwide.
WFS is also a big player in airport ramp and passenger services, although their cargo handling sector is seen to be their most important product.
No wonder! Considering that Olivier Bijaoui, President and CEO of WFS started his career in the cargo business and has in the past years put much effort into making WFS what it is today.
It is interesting to note that despite being a world leader in airport handling, WFS's presence in Germany is so far still restricted to their cargo handling facility at Frankfurt's Cargo City South.
Dnata is out of the FCS race
It is well known that FCS was in close discussions with Dnata, the Dubai-based handling giant, regarding a possible tie-up of both companies.
These talks ended abruptly a year or so back due to an apparent withdrawal of Dnata from the discussions.
It is rumoured that Lufthansa which has almost a 10 percent holding in Fraport, objected to having Dubai-based Dnata on their doorstep and possibly creating more friction or competition with the German national carrier.
Where would be the fit?
A 100 percent takeover of FCS by WFS is a possibility, but one which would have to be sanctioned by the strong German unions and workers council as well as by Lufthansa.
It has often been said that Fraport would like to partially or wholly sell off its cargo handling activities.
This has never been spoken of openly due to the possible adverse reactions from those mentioned above.
But, would it make sense for Platinum Equity to pay a large sum just to have control of FCS and what immediate or long term benefit would such a move have for WFS's cargo set up in Germany?
It's hard to determine the actual benefit for both sides.
The other alternative is that both companies are looking at some form of strategic tie-up on a joint-venture basis in order to enhance their cargo handling activities.
Fraport confirms search for FCS partner
All pure speculation at the moment - or is it?
When questioned by Cargo Forwarder Global, Fraport press spokesman, Joerg Machacek, confirmed that for some months already they have been on the lookout for a company which would be able to form a strategic partnership with FCS in order to enable them to enhance, strengthen and expand their cargo handling activities.
He would not confirm to us that WFS may be one of those discussion partners.
Whatever it may turn out to be, it is very interesting.
WFS has shown itself to be a pragmatic and profit driven entity which is seen by its clients as being a fair and operationally reliable handling partner for many airlines worldwide.
Mr Bijaoui's statement in Munich that there will be new developments and investments still rings loud in our ears.
Let's wait and see.

Re: The world should implement a Single Global Currency by 2024.
It's too simple to focus on all of the costs associated with multiple currencies; there are of course benefits as well. Besides the obvious national pride associated with national currencies, the ability to control money supply in an economy is the basic tool of governments to avoid massive shocks: recession, inflation, etc. Although the global economy is growing, meaning that local markets are becoming more interconnected, there is still more than enough discrepancy across the globe to warrant different currency unions.


Amazing 2013 sees the American on top of the standings at year's end third time.
Serena Williams has secured the year-end world number one ranking for the third time in her glittering career, the WTA said Friday, after adding nine titles this season including two more Grand Slams.
The 32-year-old American power-hitter, now on a career total of 55 titles with 17 major wins, also achieved the feat in 2002 and 2009.
Williams joins Justine Henin and Martina Hingis as a three-time year-end number one, with only Steffi Graf (8), Martina Navratilova (7), Chris Evert (5) and Lindsay Davenport (4) ahead of her.
"Serena has proven time and time again throughout her career that she is an incredible champion, both on and off the court," said WTA chairman and CEO Stacey Allaster said in a statement.
Williams has summited the rankings six times and on Monday, she will have held the top position for a total of 156 weeks, the WTA said.
In February, she became the oldest world number one since computer rankings were introduced in 1975.
And this year Williams also became the first woman to surpass $9 million in prize money in a single season, pushing her career earnings past $50 million.
Williams' total of 55 career singles titles means she is tied for seventh with Davenport and Virginia Wade on the all-time list.
Navratilova holds the record for the most singles titles with an astonishing 167, including 18 Grand Slams. The Open-era record belongs to Graf, with 22 major victories.

After looking all over Google and different forums I have yet to find a solution, so I decided I might try posting here, hopefully you guys can help me.
The restart doesn't occur anytime in particular, the screen just freezes, everything on the screen remains as I last saw it, and computer becomes unresponsive. It occurs sometimes even if they computer is idle. Sometimes in the past computer would just reboot on its own, but mostly I have to press the power button down.
The problem didn't seem to begin after any hardware/software change, it just happened randomly during routine use of computer.
EDIT: I just found a way to force the freeze to happen and that is by stretching the windows task manager window (making WTM screen bigger). For some reason it causes it to happen, but the freeze isn't limited to that occasion.
Broken memory slot on my mobo (missing pins) so I only have one memory stick of 2GB instead of two.
I've tried replacing the PSU and the graphics card, no luck.
I reinstalled windows, formatting the hard drive.
I've tried resetting the bios by removing the battery.
Temperatures for CPU are around 30-50 and GPU 35-60.
The freezes happen during safe mode as well.
Faulty motherboard, or the memory slot on the motherboard. I've ran memtest for about 8 hours, no errors found.
Faulty HDD. I've done chkdsk, no problems.
Let me know if there is anything you want to know, I'd love to get some help on the issue!
Anyway, this where I'd start troubleshooting.
the obvious issue is the MB but if you can change your cables. IE the hard drive cable and remove your cd drive , that is a long shot but I have seen it casue issues.
if that fails to correct. simple the MB is bad.
Sometimes in the past computer would just reboot on its own, but mostly I have to press the power button down.
...this is indicative of a faulty power supply or simply lacks power needed. Typically if there is no blue screen that indicates the issue and the machine "randomly" reboots I would be certain of a bad PSU. It may be on the cusp having enough/not enough thus "random".
Edit: but if you want to replace the board, I wouldn't blame you... the broken socket would drive me nuts.
I've already replaced the PSU... I think I can rule that one out, russwood.
I just got a BSOD recently, how can I use that to make sense out of my problem?
As for replacing the motherboard, I can't afford that now.
hey, i had the exact problem as you for a whole year, when it freezes all your fans are still on right? and you can open and close the CD/DVD drive? and sometimes the sound make a horrendous noise if it freezes when playing music or games!
anyway fingers crossed it the hard drive, as when it crashes you might notice the HDD light will either freeze on or off. so replace it!
i spent a year trying different video cards, PSU, ram timmings, memtest, ect!
use a tool from samsung called HUTIL it was the only HDD tool i used that found the error, seagate tools and other showed it was fine!
My money would be on the mobo as you seem to have tested most everything else and with the PSU out the window the symptoms point to that.
If you trawl the online PC stores hard you can sometimes see old AM2 boards pop up for less than £35 ($50-ish) or Ebay (even cheaper).
Yea that sounds like my issue mikey. So you replaced your HDD?
and heres my voltages and some temps if people wanna take a look.
A third party driver was identified as the probable root cause of this system error. It is suggested you look for an update for the following driver: ntkrpamp.exe .
I don't think it's the board, and Mikey's right... the HDD was going to be the next thing I was going to mention. Did you run who crashed?
Yes I know how to get to my bios, what do you mean by HW monitor?
if you have a spare hard drive just wack that in for a few days and see if it works out! but dont use the old one to copy files to it or have it as a 2nd hard drive, it will still crash!
But yeah when i was testing a year back i used seatools and windows chck disk and ittsaid it was fine so i spent time, money and major stress replacing every part and changing bios, firmware, was a right ball ache!
atm i running a old laptop hard drive while my faulty HDD is being sent back!
in short just use an old or new hdd and painfully install everything again!
I've put a link to my minidump files for anyone willing to help and take a look.
There should be a section in your bios that gives readings; ie- voltages and temps. Short of actually using a DMM the bios tends to give more accurate readings than software.
You can run SeaTools and see what it tells you, but according to the dumps, it's looking as though faulty RAM.
You can run "Windows Memory Diagnostic" or download an .iso of Memtest86 and boot from it.
I've already burned a disk and ran for hours.
close the window. Now navigate back to Win32k and you should have a nice clean Win32k.sys file.
I don't have permission to rename the file.
Move it to the recycle bin but don't delete it... can restore it later if you need to. Or, you can navigate to the file and right click and go into properties and change permissions.
Yea.. won't even let me change permissions or put it in recycle bin.
Log off and at restart log on again as administrator. If this is the first time, be patient because the OS will "arrange" your desktop.
2-nd Step : open Windows Explorer, go to the system folder and point to the file you want to rename. Click PROPERTIES, then SECURITY TAB, then ADVANCED.
Here you click on OWNER TAB, then EDIT , then under "change Owner to : " click on OTHER USERS OR GROUPS. Here click on ADVANCED, after on FIND NOW and here select the administrator and final OK and after APPLY. Pay attention : select administrator NOT administratorS ! You'll see a pop-up window saying you just taken ownersip of this object (the file) and you need to close the object properties. Click OK.
3-rd Step : reopen the file PROPERTIES tab and then SECURITY TAB whereafter EDIT and choose Administrator and here set FULL CONTROL at permissions. Finally click OK. Now you can rename the file.
If there is a driver (Microsoft one) you must delete also the file existing in C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRIVERSTORE\FILEREPOSITORY\...kind of device...\file.sys, using the above method. Also , look for other copies of the system file (for example on C:\WINDOWS\LASTGOOD\.... ) using FIND function.
Also, do not forget to deactivate the administrator account. You do not need it for your daily purposes.
...all of this can prove to be futile and be a bad driver (video) or failing HDD. Did you run SeaTools?
After restarting and messing with a few things in the device manager, it now shows, so I will do the generic long test.
Computer freezes a few minutes after booting; while browsing Chrome.

Q: Unable to load DLL 'SqlServerSpatial140.dll': The specified module could not be found This all new to me, so bear with me...
I'm working on a Visual Studio project; it's a web service that returns some data.
I've just tried to make a particular call to the web server on my local machine (IIS) and I'm getting this error:

Unable to load DLL 'SqlServerSpatial140.dll': The specified module
  could not be found

Before anyone says it - yes, obviously I am missing this DLL file. I've searched online and don't see where I could download it from (I have Microsoft SQL Server System CLR Types (x64) and non-X64 both installed. I have Microsoft System CLR Types for SQL Server 2014 and 2016 both installed)
Does anyone know how to fix this? Does anyone know if I can just download this file from somewhere?

A: My problem was git related: a fresh clone of solution (kept on TFS) seemed to be broken, although my fellow developers had no problem. In my case "resetting" did the trick:

*

*uninstall nuget Microsoft.SqlServer.Types 14.0.314.76

*clear / rebuild project

*install nuget Microsoft.SqlServer.Types 14.0.314.76

*clear / rebuild project

A: I had this problem but I found a solution for it. I had some new entities with the System.Data.Entity.Spatial.DbGeometry type and I kept getting the System.DllNotFoundException: Unable to load DLL 'SqlServerSpatial140.dll' when I ran the Add-Migration command. I had installed the SqlServerTypes library from nuget, which placed a folder in my solution like @mattavatar's post illustrated, but I was still getting the exception.
What fixed it for me was copying these DLLs to C:\Windows\SysWOW64. This is dependent on the architecture of your machine, and your IIS configuration. For my I am running on a 64 bit machine, but IIS is configured to run 32 bit apps. In this case, I had to copy the 32 bit dll to C:\Windows\SysWOW64. If you're running a 32 bit machine, you'll want to copy the 32 bit dll to C:\Windows\System32. If you copy a 64 bit dll where it is expecting a 32 bit one, and you run the Add-Migration command, you'll get the System.BadImageFormatException.
Hopefully this helps someone. I spent want too long trying to figure this out. Credit to @pflous' comment https://stackoverflow.com/a/39009634/6697928

A: What worked for me was to go to this file location below and copy the SqlServerSpatial240.dll to my project bin folder.
C:\Users<user>.nuget\packages\microsoft.sqlserver.types\14.0.1016.290\nativeBinaries\x64

A: Finally fixed the issue by doing the following.

*

*Uninstalled the SqlServer.Types Nuget package

*Reinstalled the SqleErver.Types Nuget package (Mainly did this to ensure the dll was
correctly uploaded)

*Verify you have the SqlServerTypes folder created, and verify you have x64/x86 with your dlls inside, if they aren't loaded, right click, click git, then click Add

*Verify you have a Loader.cs in that folder, open it and verify its referencing the correct dll.

*Finally, this step is what fixed it for me, go to your Global.asax.cs file. Inside, Application_Start() add this line
#if DEBUG
SqlServerTypes.Utilities.LoadNativeAssemblies(Server.MapPath("~"));

#endif

A: For those who are seeing a very similar set of errors, something like:

Could not copy the file "…\SqlServerTypes\x64\SqlServerSpatial140.dll"
  because it was not found

If you installed Microsoft.SqlServer.Types via NuGet and your application works locally but you get errors when building via Azure DevOps then you simply need to add the dlls to source control. As @Pure.Krome noted, these dlls exist locally at:

However, notice that by default these dlls are ignored (red icon at left). Right-click the ignored dlls and select Add Ignored File to Source Control… then commit and push your changes, then queue a new build! Note: Your solution may contain several projects, and each may have their own SqlServerTypes folder.

A: Copy the dll from C:\Users\<User>\.nuget\packages\Microsoft.SqlServer.Types\14.0.314.76\nativeBinaries\x86 to your project. Right-click the file and click Properties. Set "Copy To Output Directory" to "Copy Always".

A: When you install the Microsoft.SqlServer.Types nuget package, this should create a new folder in root:
\SqlServerTypes
   |_x64
   |_x86

which should contain the appropriate dll's. It's also auto setup to copy if newer.
Then, make sure your app loads the appropriate assembly:

*

*For ASP.NET Web Applications: SqlServerTypes.Utilities.LoadNativeAssemblies(Server.MapPath("~/bin"));

*For desktop applications / others: SqlServerTypes.Utilities.LoadNativeAssemblies(AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory);
Not sure if this works with .NET Core though.

A: I fixed this by issuing the following command in the Package Manager Console:
Update-Package -Reinstall Microsoft.SqlServer.Types

The output included some dire-looking warnings and errors, but in the end it indicated that the package was successfully installed.  And the build errors vanished.

A: Thank you very much. It worked for me very well. I lost a lot of time on this, but you saved me! :)
I added this to my Global.asax.cs
=>
 `protected void Application_Start()
    {
     SqlServerTypes.Utilities.LoadNativeAssemblies(Server.MapPath("~/bin"));`

And then in my Solution Explorer => toggled show all file
and Add Ignored File to Source Control… as Pure.Krone said.

A: I had a similar problem and my files from the sub-folder \SqlServerTypes (installed as @Pure.Krome described) where missing/discarded by my settings in NuGet.Config. I had to uninstall and reinstall the Nuget package Microsoft.SqlServer.Types

Sueño MLS 2015 field cut down to final six on emotional last day in Florida
May 3, 20154:35PM EDT
Andrew Marcinko
ORLANDO, Fla. – As Sueño MLS wrapped up Sunday afternoon at Orlando City SC's training ground, six young men left with the knowledge that they had beaten out 400 others to move on to the next round of the competition in Los Angeles.
It was an intense two-day tryout for the teenagers, and the pressure only increased on the second day once the field had been cut down to 25. The players arrived at 9 am for a training session with Orlando City's U-23 coach Darren Powell. They ended the soccer portion of their day with a scrimmage just before noon in front of members of the Orlando City coaching staff, who looked on intently.
Brooklyn to Florida? Sueño makes the dream a reality
That was just the start for the youngsters, who assembled after the match for the announcement of the six finalists in front of the Univision TV cameras. Each player had friends and family there with them, and a couple of the parents were visibly emotional as their sons' names were announced.
It was certainly a lot to take in for the young players, who mostly expressed that they had never competed in an event like Sueño MLS before. After the selections were announced, Powell elaborated on how the staff reached their decisions.
"It was very difficult," Powell said. "We were talking about players until the very last game. What stood out was players who just had a little bit extra, whether that was their technical ability or their ability to influence a game."
While Sueño MLS will only have one winner after the next rounds in LA and Chicago, Sunday was also an opportunity for youth players to get noticed by the Orlando City scouts. Powell was open in his interest in having another look at a few of the participants.
Chavarria of Las Vegas wins Sueño MLS 2014; Ortiz the top goalkeeper
"Every moment in this event is an opportunity for you," Powell said. "We'd like to see a few of them in our environment and see how they perform."
Izui Villasana, one of the five field players selected as a finalist, drove 22 hours from Texas with five of his club teammates to take part in the event. When his name was announced, his friends swarmed the set to hug and congratulate their teammate.
"It's crazy, it was my first time at an event like this," Vallasana said. "I was nervous, but I just kept working hard. You've just got to keep believing in yourself."

Tidal turbine maker bids to turn U.K. into a green Saudi Arabia
A British developer is bidding to build power turbines under the sea in Scotland in a contest for government contracts that starts Monday, aiming to prove for the first time that its technology is commercially viable.
Atlantis Resources Ltd. is among the companies vying for 290 million pounds ($363 million) of electricity-generation contracts the U.K. government is auctioning off. Winners will be notified between June and September and will get a firm price for the power they sell under a program meant to stimulate cleaner forms of energy.
If successful, the bid from Atlantis would signal that efforts to harness the energy of the oceans are starting to bear fruit, adding another alternative to the fossil fuels.
"Tidal power is what wind and solar were 15 years ago," said Tim Cornelius, chief executive officer of the company with a market value of about 66 million pounds. "If you look at the relative starting time, we're growing much faster."
The company is up against offshore wind developers likely to bid in the auction, including EDP Renovaveis SA, Dong Energy A/S and Red Rock Power Ltd., which is owned by State Development & Investment Corp of China.
While wind turbines have become commonplace, machines that tap into tidal flows have mainly worked the experimental level and at a cost more than triple that of wind. To win in the U.K. auction against other technologies, the Atlantis turbines must reduce costs by almost 70 percent to roughly 100 pounds a megawatt-hour, within striking distance of the cost of nuclear and offshore wind.
Atlantis anticipates that mass-producing the machines in a factory due to open by 2019 would help slash costs of the machines that are now hand-crafted.
If costs can be contained, the industry's potential is enormous. Ocean Energy Systems, an organization affiliated with the International Energy Agency, estimates that movement in the planet's waters could generate 300 gigawatts of electricity by 2050 if harnessed properly. That's the equivalent of 250 nuclear reactors.
Scottish authorities long have harbored bigger ambitions. Seven years ago, then First Minister Alex Salmond said wind and marine energy could turn Scotland into a "Saudi Arabia of renewables" and employ more than 20,000.
"It'll be a huge challenge," said David Collier, a project manager for Atlantis who has spent the past seven years scrutinizing every detail of their supply chain. "I think we can do it. Water is 800 times denser than air, so we can make our turbines much smaller than ones used for wind energy."

Olympics postponed for first time in history
Illustration by Joelena Despard
Alexander Nino, Reporter
The 2020 Summer Olympic games have been rescheduled to July 2021 due to the global COVID-19 pandemic, according to a joint statement by the International Olympic and Tokyo 2020 Organising Committees. It is the first time in history that the games have been postponed. Even though the Games will be played next year, it will still be called Tokyo 2020 according to ESPN.
Olympic Committee President Thomas Bach, Japan's Prime Minister Shinz? Abe and the rest of the organising committee discussed the impact of the coronavirus outbreak on the previously established July 2020 start date with World Health Organization officials in a conference call.
After weeks of long deliberations, the parties concluded that postponing the Olympic and Paralympic games was necessary to assist in the containment of the virus, the protection of competing athletes and the preservation of the global athletic calendar, according to the committee's statement.
Many throughout the community saw the postponement as an inevitable circumstance following the suspension of major sports leagues around the world. The pressure on the committee mounted once Canada became the first country to officially pull out of the games in mid-March due to concerns surrounding the virus. New Zealand hinted at announcing a boycott unless the games were postponed, while Australia informed their athletes to prepare for a 2021 start date.
Several other countries including the United Kingdom, Brazil, Norway and the United States — specifically the swimming and track and field team — implored the committee to postpone the games without threatening to pull out.
The situation was further exacerbated in the days following, with confirmed cases passing 1.3 million worldwide and the death toll topping 74,000 as of April 6, according to John Hopkins University.
Athletes have responded positively to the announcement. British gymnast Becky Downie, who announced she will be retiring after the games, said she is "ready for the final chapter" on her Twitter account. Hungarian swimmer and three-time Olympic champion Katinka Hosszu expressed her gratitude towards having an extra year to prepare while making the most of an "unlucky situation" on her Instagram.
The level of clarity being provided to Olympic athletes has not been extended to a majority of the major sports leagues throughout the world, who are still waiting to find out when their respective seasons will either start or continue from their suspension, if they resume at all.
With the Masters golf tournament announcing a reschedule to mid-November, there remains hope that winter and summer leagues will get to play their seasons. But the influx of positive COVID-19 test results, along with the constant escalation of deaths throughout the world, serves as a reminder that issues regarding sports are secondary.

Q: How do I remove Evolution from indicator-message? The indicator-message (envelope icon) on Unity panel shows Evolution and Unity mail but I want it to show Unity mail only. I don't want to remove Evolution. I just want Unity mail in indicator-message and nothing else. I am using Ubuntu 14.10 with Unity.

A: Delete the file /usr/share/indicators/messages/applications/evolution and you will remove the choice from the envelope menu. Make a copy first if you think you will ever want it back, or just recreate it, it just contains
/usr/share/applications/evolution.desktop
sudo rm /usr/share/indicators/messages/applications/evolution
