They are completely harmless and caused by excessive prolonged sun exposure.
Brown or sun spots also referred to as liver spots.
Sun spots are also referred to as liver spots because it was originally thought that they were caused by a liver dysfunction.Today it is very well established that they are not connected in any way to the liver.
Brown or sun spots usually develop on those areas of the body which are exposed to the sun the longest. Also exposure to UV tanning lights contribute to the development of brown spots. Fortunately sun spots, when they first appear are very superficial. The hyperpigmetation usually resides on the upper part of the epidermis. Therefore brown spots are usually very easily removed with a light superficial skin peel (exfoliation) or skin resurfacing.
The superficial skin resurfacing using the BeautyTeck removes the superficial area of the pigmented area very easily.
One of the advantages of using this technique is that the brown spots are removed immediately (usually within seconds) and one session is usually sufficient for complete removal of this type of hyperpigmentation.
If you are interested in have your brown spots removed within one treatment using the BeautyTeck, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Q: Not Index on Kibana, Elasticsearch Im consumming data from mqtt sender to my proxy mqtt in kafka like this
mosquitto_pub -h 0.0.0.0 -p 1883 -t temperature -m '{"who":"ben", "timeepoc":1558212482, "lat":-33.87052833, "lon":151.21292, "alt":31.0, "batt":0, "speed":12.86}'

Then I create a topic in kafka
kafka-topics --create --bootstrap-server localhost:9092 --replication-factor 1 --partitions 1 --topic temperature

Later I create my stream with a table in ksql
create stream carsensor (who VARCHAR, batt INTEGER, lon DOUBLE, lat DOUBLE, timeepoc BIGINT, alt INTEGER, speed DOUBLE)
with (kafka_topic = 'temperature',value_format='JSON');
CREATE table runner_status with (value_format='JSON') AS
select who
, min(speed) as min_speed
, max(speed) as max_speed
, min(GEO_DISTANCE(lat, lon, -33.87014, 151.211945, 'km')) as dist_to_finish
, count(*) as num_events
from carsensor WINDOW TUMBLING (size 5 minute)
group by who;

This is my table data runner
{
  "ROWTIME": 1597418628366,
  "ROWKEY": "ben",
  "WINDOWSTART": 1597418400000,
  "WINDOWEND": 1597418700000,
  "WHO": "ben",
  "MIN_SPEED": 12.91,
  "MAX_SPEED": 12.91,
  "DIST_TO_FINISH": 0.07441178137496719,
  "NUM_EVENTS": 2
}

this is my table carsensor
{
  "ROWTIME": 1597418628366,
  "ROWKEY": "temperature",
  "WHO": "ben",
  "BATT": 0,
  "LON": 151.21273,
  "LAT": -33.87029167,
  "TIMEEPOC": 1558212492,
  "ALT": 31,
  "SPEED": 12.91
}

Then I create a connector to elasticsearch
 CREATE SINK CONNECTOR SINK_ELASTIC_TEST_02_M WITH (
  'connector.class'         = 'io.confluent.connect.elasticsearch.ElasticsearchSinkConnector',
  'connection.url'          = 'http://localhost:9200',
  'key.converter'           = 'org.apache.kafka.connect.storage.StringConverter',
  'value.converter'= 'io.confluent.connect.avro.AvroConverter',
  'value.converter.schema.registry.url'= 'http://schema-registry:8081',
  'type.name'               = '_doc',
  'topics'                  = 'carsensor',
  'key.ignore'              = 'false',
  'schema.ignore'           = 'false',
  'transforms'                                  = 'ExtractTimestamp',
  'transforms.ExtractTimestamp.type'            = 'org.apache.kafka.connect.transforms.InsertField$Value',
  'transforms.ExtractTimestamp.timestamp.field' = 'EVENT_TS'
);

but I can see any index on kibana  I want to graph the location in a map

A: I found the solution jajaj because my data is json i need to use
key ignore and schema ignore and I only create a table from temperature not two
CREATE SINK CONNECTOR SINK_ELASTIC_TEST_JSON_x WITH (
  'connector.class'         = 'io.confluent.connect.elasticsearch.ElasticsearchSinkConnector',
  'connection.url'          = 'http://localhost:9200',
  'key.converter'           = 'org.apache.kafka.connect.storage.StringConverter',
  'value.converter'         = 'org.apache.kafka.connect.json.JsonConverter',
  'value.converter.schemas.enable' = 'false',
  'type.name'               = '_doc',
  'topics'                  = 'temperature',
  'key.ignore'              = 'true',
  'schema.ignore'           = 'true'
);

A fatal chronic ketamine poisoning.
Tao Y, Chen XP, Qin ZH. A fatal chronic ketamine poisoning. J Forensic Sci. 2005;50(1):173-6.
A few papers in the literature reported incident deaths by acute ketamine poisoning. In this paper, we report an unusual homicide caused by chronic ketamine poisoning. The victim was a 34-year old married woman with no previous medical history (except as reported herein) who died in her own home. The court investigation revealed that she was chronically poisoned by her husband over a period of about one year in an act of homicide. Determination of ketamine concentrations in autopsy specimens was carried out with gas-chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The results showed that ketamine concentration was 21 microg/mL in gastric contents, 3.8 microg/mL in blood and 1.2 microg/mL in urine. The most striking forensic findings were cardiac muscle fibrosis and hyaline degeneration of small arteries in victim's heart, the pathological features of ketamine poisoning previous reported only in animal studies.

Texas native Rhett Miller is perhaps best known as the frontman of the Dallas-based alt-country band the Old 97's, although he has also pursued a critically acclaimed solo career. Formed in 1993, the Old 97's built a devoted following with their brash blend of country and power pop influences, making a splash with 1995's Wreck Your Life, which won the group a brief stay on the roster of Elektra Records, a period kicked off with one of their finest hours, 1997's Too Far to Care. All four members also pursued side projects, but Miller's solo career captured the most attention, with the literate songwriter training his eye on such subjects as fatherhood, sex, and love. Making his solo bow with 2002's The Instigator, most of Miller's solo albums have been dominated by cool, melodic pop tunes with a drier and more confessional bent than his work with the band, though 2012's The Dreamer explored a middle ground between his pop and alt-country sensibilities, and the 2011 set The Interpreter: Live at Largo revealed he's a sure hand with other people's songs. Strictly speaking, Miller launched his own career before the Old 97's were formed. He recorded his first solo album, a series of acoustic folk songs entitled Mythologies, in 1989. Future Old 97's bassist (and a solid songwriter in his own right) Murry Hammond produced the album, and their partnership later blossomed into a full-fledged band. While releasing a string of well-received albums with the Old 97's, Miller and Hammond also performed together as the Ranchero Brothers, a two-man acoustic duo that was originally launched as a means of testing new music for the Old 97's in front of a live audience. The Ranchero Brothers developed their own distinct following, although no albums resulted from the project. Taking time off from the Old 97's, Miller began recording his first major-label solo effort in February 2002, this time with the help of producer/multi-instrumentalist Jon Brion. The Instigator appeared nearly seven months later, followed by a tour with ex-Crowded House frontman Neil Finn in early 2003. Miller then returned to the studio with the Old 97's, squashing worried rumors that he planned to halt the band's career and focus on his solo efforts. He did, however, find time to balance the two projects, and his second solo release, The Believer, was issued by Verve in February 2006. After returning to the studio with the Old 97's for 2007's Blame It on Gravity, Miller continued his juggling act by recording another solo album. The self-titled record appeared in 2009 courtesy of his new label, Shout! Factory. His next two solo albums, 2010's The Interpreter: Live at Largo and 2012's The Dreamer, were both released by Miller's own Maximum Sunshine label. After releasing one of the Old 97's' strongest albums in years with 2014's Most Messed Up, Miller took a new turn in his solo career with 2015's The Traveler, which featured backing from the band Black Prairie (which includes several members of the Decemberists) and a guest appearance from Peter Buck of R.E.M. Following more recording and touring with the Old 97's, Miller repaired to Brooklyn, New York, where he cut the 2018 album The Messenger with producer and multi-instrumentalist Sam Cohen, who previously worked with Apollo Sunshine and Yellowbirds. The album was released by ATO Records. ~ Mark Deming & Laurel Greenidge

1851 Catalogue of Officers & Students of Waterville Liberal Institute, Waterville, Maine
Catalogue of the Officers and Students of Waterville Liberal Institute, Maine, for the Academical Year Ending May 10, 1851. Waterville: Printed by Maxham and Wing....Mail Office, 1851
Bears the handwritten name of Charles Mathews on the back cover. There's a middle initial but I'm not quite sure of it. I didn't see the name Charles Mathews printed inside, but there are two students with the surname Mathews, Jesse R. Mathews and Clymena Mathews, each of Waterville. I found a Charles K. Mathews, who might fit, in the Maine Census of 1850, but that Census doesn't give names of other household members, at least not online.
[Note of 29 May 2013: A reader explains that students Jesse R. Mathews and Clymena Mathews were the children of Simeon Mathews, who was instrumental in the formation of the Waterville Liberal Institute and was on its first board of trustees. The reader speculated that the Charles Mathews whose name was handwritten on the book was the Charles K. Mathews who owned a stationery store at Waterville and was a nephew of Simeon Mathews. Charles K. Mathews had a son named Charles W. Mathews.]

From online research, hopefully correct:
William Bernard Geoghegan was born 31 August 1865 at Baltimore, Maryland, the son of Captain James A. and Rosalie [or Rosa or variant] Geoghegan of Baltimore. James was born on James Island in September of 1839, the son of Stewart K. and Susan A. (Travers) Geoghegan. I don't have information on William's mother Rosalie.
After stints at several churches in New England, William settled at New Bedford, Massachusetts, where he worked as a clergyman and in the public health field. In the 1910 and 1920 Censuses of New Bedford, a wife Mary is enumerated with him, but he was living as a boarder without Mary in the 1930 Census of New Bedford.
I wasn't able to determine William's date of death.
If you have any corrections, additions or insights regarding the information presented here, please leave a comment or contact me directly. Thanks!

Colored Engraving of Champion, trotting sire owned by William Russell Grinnell of Cayuga County, New York
Engraving removed, at some point, from a book. It appears to be handcolored, if my tiny microscope and its user are reliable.
It depicts the beautiful chestnut "Champion", owned by William Russell Grinnell of Levana in Cayuga County, New York. See an 1897 article about Champion and some of his offspring, below, after a brief family history of William Russell Grinnell.
William Russell Grinnell was born 10 March 1819 in New Bedford, Massachusetts, the son of Cornelius and Eliza Tallman (Russell) Grinnell. His paternal grandparents were Captain Cornelius and Sylvia (Howland) Grinnell. His maternal grandparents were Gilbert and Lydia (Tallman) Russell.
William married Charlotte Van Waert Irving on 8 June 1847 at Sunnyside, New York. They raised at least three sons, from what I could glean online. William Russell Grinnell died on 11 October 1888 at Aurora, New York; Charlotte died 16 March 1911.
From "The Horse in America, His Derivation, History and Development", published in 1897 by John H. Wallace, and available to read in digitized format online.
CHAMPION, the head of the Champion family, was a beautiful golden chestnut, sixteen hands high and without marks. He was bred by George Raynor, of Huntington, Long Island, and was foaled 1842. He was got by Almack, son of Mambrino, by Messenger; dam Spirit, by Engineer Second, son of Engineer, by Messenger, and sire of the famous Lady Suffolk. This is enough Messenger blood to please the most fastidious, but I think there was still more beyond the Engineer mare. When eighteen months old this colt showed phenomenal speed when led behind a sulky, and when three years old he was driven a full mile to harness in 3:05. a rate of speed which, at that time had never been equaled by a colt of that age. This made him ''champion" as a three-year old and William T. Porter named him Champion. After this performance Mr. John Sniffin, a merchant of Brooklyn, bought him, and in June, 1846, Mr.William R. Grinnell paid two thousand six hundred dollars for him and took him to Cayuga County, New York. After keeping Champion in that county till the close of the season of 1849, Mr. Grinnell concluded to sell the horse, as in all that time he had not covered one hundred mares. Mr. Grinnell complained that the farmers did not appreciate the horse, and many of them failed to pay for his services. But the fault was not all on the part of the farmers, for the price, to them, was very high, and he was a very uncertain foal getter.
In April, 1850, he was sent to New York and kept in the stable of Mr. Van Cott, on the Harlem road. He had been very badly handled, and Mr. Van Cott says he had been abused and illtreated, and when he came to his place he was as vicious and savage as a wild beast. The horse was kept there for sale, and in his daily exercise Mr. Van Cott says he could "show considerably better than 2:40 at any time." In 1851 he was sent over to Jersey and kept for public use at a fee of fifty dollars, by Samuel Taylor, at Newmarket, Metuchen, Boundbrook and Millstone. After making three or four seasons in the region of Boundbrook, in the year 1854, Mr. Grinnell, who still owned him, sold him to Mr. James Harkness, of St. Louis, Missouri, for about seven hundred and fifty dollars. On reaching St. Louis he proved to be as dangerous as ever, and no man dared to go into his stall, except Mr. Harkness and one assistant. In 1858 Mr. Harkness sold him to Thomas T. Smith, of Independence, Missouri, for one thousand dollars. He was there stolen by "jayhawkers" and taken to Leavenworth, Kansas, where he made two seasons and died 1864. Although he lived to be old, he left comparatively few colts, but a large proportion of that few were of excellent quality and many of them trotters.
CHAMPION (SCOBEY'S also known as King's Champion) was the best son of Grinnell's Champion, the son of Almack, and he came out of a mare called Bird, by Hedbird, son of Billy Duroc. He was foaled 1849, and was bred by Jesse M .Davis, then of Cayuga County, New York, and sold to David King, of Northville, New York, and by him in 1861 to Mr. Kellogg, of Battle Creek, Michigan. He was repurchased by Messrs. Backus. Scobey and Burlew in August, 1865, and soon became the property of Mr. C. Scobey and died his in May, 1874. It has been claimed this horse had speed and a record of 2:42 in 1857, but I have no data to determine how fast he was. From his own loins he put eight performers in the 2:30 list, two of which were phenomenally fast, although their records do not show it. Here I allude to Nettie Burlew and Sorrel Dapper, more generally known as "The Auburn Horse." The latter was a long, leggy, light chestnut, with a tremendous stride, and Hiram Woodruff did not hesitate to say he was a faster horse than Dexter. This Champion was a sire of excellent quality, although but a few of his progeny were developed. He left six sons that were the sires of forty-four trotters, and seven daughters that produced nine performers.
CHAMPION (GOODING'S)was a bright bay horse with black points, standing fifteen and three-quarter hands high. He was got by Scobey's Champion, dam the trotting mare Cynthia, by Bartlett's Turk, son of Weddle's imported Turk; grandam Fanny, by Scobey's Black Prince; great-grandam Bett, by Rockplanter, son of Duroc; great-great-grandam Kate, represented to be a Messenger mare. He was foaled 1853, and was bred by Almeron Ott, Cayuga County, New York, and traded to Mr. Stearns, from whom he passed to his late owners, T. W. and W. Gooding, Ontario County, New York. He died June, 1883. This horse was peddled about in Seneca County at a fee of five dollars, and had a very light patronage among the farmers. At last he was sold, with difficulty, at Canandaigua, for three hundred dollars to the Messrs. Gooding, and he brought them a handsome income as long as he lived. As his reputation as a sire of speed spread abroad, the quality of the mares brought to him improved, and among them were some with good trotting inheritance. Of his progeny, seventeen entered the 2:30 list, the fastest in 2:21, and they were good campaigners. It is a remarkable fact that only one of his sons proved himself a trotting sire, and he left but a single representative. On the female side of the house he was more successful, for six of his daughters produced seven performers.
CHARLEY B. was a bay horse, sixteen hands high, and was bred bv Charles Burlew, of Union Springs. New York. He was foaled 1869, aud was got by Scobey's Champion, son of Champion, by Almack, and proved himself the best son of his sire. He was out of a mare well known as "Old Jane" that was the dam of Myrtle with a record of 2:2o^. Several pedigrees have been provided for this mare that did not prove reliable, and they were all careful to endow her with plenty of Messenger blood. After searching for the facts through some years, the only version of it
that seemed to be worthy of credence showed that her sire was a horse called Magnum Bonum and there it ended. In his racing career this horse was started sometimes under the name of ''Lark.'' He has six heats to his credit in 2:30 and better, and a record of 2:25. From his own loins he has twenty-two trotters in the list. Considering the respectable number this horse shows in the 2:30 list, his great nervous energy, his vigorous constitution, and the number of years he was liberally patronized in the stud, it is a most notable fact that he has but two sons that are producers. Six of his daughters have produced. As a propagator of speed in the coming generations, this horse seems to be even a greater failure than his half-brother, Gooding's Champion.
NIGHT HAWK was a chestnut son of Grinnell's Champion. He was bred by John S. Van Kirk, of Newark, New Jersey, and his dam was by Sherman's Young Eclipse, son of American Eclipse. He was foaled 1855-6. In 1862 Mr. Van Kirk took him to Kalamazoo, Michigan, thence to Paw Paw in 1872, and in 1879 he was returned to Kalamazoo, owned by A. T. Tuthill. He was something of a trotter, and had a record of 2:36, under the name of Champion, when he was controlled by Mr. D. B. Hibbard, I think. He was shown at a State fair, held at Lansing, on a poor half-mile track, it is said, and trotted a mile in 2:314;, and for this performance he received a piece of plate from the society testifying to this fact. He has but two representatives in the 2:30 list, and three of his sons have five trotters to their credit, while six of his daughters have produced seven performers. He lived to an old age.
The merits and demerits of this family are very marked. The head of it seems to have possesssed great nerve force and an unmistakable instinct to trot, but he was irritable and vicious in his temper. Both these qualities — the desirable and the undesirable alike— he seems to have transmitted to his offspring. I have seen Gooding's Champion, and he had the temper and disposition of his grandsire. It appears that the original Champion was a shy breeder, and I am disposed to think he inherited this infirmity from his sire, Almack, and whether the inability of his sons and grandsons to get sires of trotters may be accounted for from this cause would be a very difficult question to answer. There are several others of this family, East and West, that have single representatives in the 2:30 list, that I have not enumerated, but from the statistics, as they now stand, it seems probable that, whatever is good in this family will be swallowed up in other tribes that are more prepotent and positive in the trotting instinct.

Photo of Young Siblings James Dalton Elliott & Miriam Velma Elliott of Lakeland, Florida
Circa 1900 photograph of siblings James Dalton Elliott and Miriam Velma Elliott of Lakeland, Florida. The photograph was taken by the Ward Pender studio of Lakeland.
James Dalton Elliott and his sister Miriam Velma Elliott were the children of Dudley Dalton Elliott and wife Ida Isabelle (Lanier) Elliott, both born in Florida. Their paternal grandparents were Irvin Hilton Elliott and his first wife Diana Hester (Beaman) Elliott. Their maternal grandparents were James S. and Sarah Miriam (Turner) Lanier.
James Dalton Elliott was born 29 December 1896 at Kathleen, Florida. In 1918, he married Eurie Alberta Hebb, who was born 13 December 1900, the daughter of Nicholas Harris Heb and wife Harriet Tallulah "Lula" (Folsom) Heb.
James and Eurie lived at Lakeland, Florida, where they raised several children.
Miriam Velma Elliott was born 30 December 1898. I found a reference online where she died 27 May 1989 but I haven't found the actual source myself. I didn't find a marriage for her.
If you have corrections and/or additions to the information above, please leave a comment or contact me directly.
This post originally included another photograph, that of a young woman identified as Elsie Elliot, but Elsie is now featured in a post of her own. She was the daughter of Llewellyn Ansel Elliot and Effie May (Roseburrough) Elliot of Ames, Iowa. At age 43, Elsie married a Mr. Ramsey and moved to Winston-Salem, North Carolina.
The photographs were found together but whether the siblings and Elsie are related, or if Elliott and Elliot are merely coincidental, I don't know.
1906 Photo of Amos Holt or Ames Holt, Providence, Rhode Island
Photograph identified in pencil on a dark background: "Sept. 18, 1906, Amos Holt, Providence, Rhode Island" I'm positive his last name is Holt, and I believe his first name is Amos, though it could be Ames.
So far, I've been unsuccessful in further identifying the handsome fellow in the photograph. I found possible Amos Holts in Maine, Vermont, Massachusetts and several other states. I found an Ames Holt of New Hampshire, who was one of the founders of Holt Manufacturing Company, which eventually became Caterpillar Inc.; perhaps he or one of his brothers had a son Ames.
Perhaps he was attending college at Providence, Rhode Island.
If you have any suggestions on a Holt family that might include this Amos or Ames, please leave a comment or contact me directly.

Carte de Visite of a gentleman identified on reverse as Dr. Richard H. Thomas, father of J. C T. - Allen
Researching online, I found a Dr. Richard H. Thomas who might fit.
Assuming correct information, this Dr. Richard Henry Thomas was born 20 June 1805 in Baltimore, Maryland and died there on 15 January 1860. He was married three times and had children with two of his wives. With wife Martha Carey, he had a son James Carey Thomas, among others. With wife Phebe Clapp or Deborah Phebe Hinsdale Clapp, he had a son Allen C. Thomas, among others.
His parents were John Chew Thomas and Mary (Snowden) Thomas, each born in Maryland. His paternal grandparents were Samuel and Mary (Thomas) Thomas. Samuel and Mary were cousins. His maternal grandparents were Richard and Eliza (Rutland) Snowden.
First wife Martha Carey, mother of James Carey Thomas, was born 12 May 1805 in Baltimore, the daughter of James and Martha (Ellicott) Carey, who, according to an online source, married on horseback. Her maternal grandparents were John and Abarilla Carey. Her maternal grandparents were John and Leah (Brown) Ellicott. Martha (Carey) Thomas died 20 November 1836.
Their son, James Carey Thomas, was born 13 July 1833 at Baltimore, Maryland and died there on 8 November 1897. He married Mary Whitall, who was born in Philadelphia in 1836, the daughter of John Mickle Whitall and Mary (Tatum) Whitall. The couple had ten children, not all of whom survived to adulthood.
Dr. Richard Henry Thomas married Phebe Clapp or Deborah Phebe Hinsdale Clapp at Baltimore on 9 February 1842. She was born 30 June 1818 in Dutchess County, New York, the daughter of John and Phebe (Hicks) Clapp. Her paternal grandparents were John and Phebe (Hallock) Clapp. Her maternal grandparents were Samuel and Phebe (Seaman) Hicks.
Their son Allen C. Thomas was born 26 December 1846 at Baltimore, Maryland. He married Rebecca, who was born in Rhode Island about 1845; they had a son Edward and daughter Miriam.

Fifteen Steps to an Innovation Economy: Russia's Leaders Look to NYAS for a Roadmap
Academy executives will present a guidance document at a conference in Yaroslavl next week.
Senior staff of the New York Academy of Sciences next week will deliver a report to Russian Federation President Dmitry Medvedev on steps his country must take to evolve an innovation economy. The report, "Yaroslavl Roadmap 10-15-20: 10 Years to Implement, 15 Steps to Take, 20 Pitfalls to Avoid—International Experience and the Path Forward for Russian Innovation Policy," (click title to download PDF), was produced by scientists in the Academy's Innovation & Sustainability program.
Honorable Ilya Ponomarev, Chair of the High Tech Subcommittee of the Russian State Duma, is scheduled to present details from the 83-page document during the plenary session of Global Policy Forum 2010, hosted by President Medvedev, Sept. 9-10 in Yaroslavl. During the conference, the New York Academy of Sciences' President, Ellis Rubinstein, and Vice President, Innovation & Sustainability, Karin Ezbiansky Pavese are scheduled to lead a roundtable dialogue on the report. The Roadmap, a contribution to the historic transformation that Russia is undertaking under President Medvedev's leadership, presents steps that Russia must take and pitfalls it must avoid in order to accomplish the transition to an innovation economy by the country's stated goal date of 2020.
"The Yaroslavl Roadmap 10-15-20" describes the innovation policies, successes, and challenges of four countries—Israel, Finland, India, and the U.S.—and Taiwan Province, China. Based on analyses of how those regions developed innovation economies, and on a study of the current state of Russia's economy compared to the priorities of President Medvedev, the report offers 15 specific recommendations. It also highlights 20 pitfalls for Russia to avoid.
Academy President Ellis Rubinstein said, "Because of our position as a neutral entity without sector or disciplinary interests, as well as our ability to access an international network of leaders and experts who can address science, technology, and innovation related issues, the New York Academy of Sciences was requested by the Russian Federation to prepare a report outlining a set of recommendations aimed at fostering such innovation."
Academy Vice President and author of the report, Karin Pavese, said, "This 12-week project was focused on thematic trends in how a subset of locales has successfully fostered innovation. The report is meant to be a set of practical recommendations to be used by President Medvedev and his staff as they continue to develop innovation policy for Russia.
"Under President Medvedev, the Russian Federation has set a priority to develop a robust national innovation system, and to transform itself from an economy reliant on natural resource production into a knowledge-based economy," said Pavese. "Modernization of the society as a whole will be accompanied by a thorough integration of cutting-edge science and innovation into productive activity, fulfilling the human and intellectual potentials of the country and creating entirely new areas of world-class technology."
"The Yaroslavl Roadmap 10-15-20" includes recommendations that Russia focus on basic research to ensure a pipeline of cutting-edge technology and human talent, and that the country define mission-oriented grand challenges based on its needs and strengths in areas of energy; communications, transportation, telecomm, and space technology; biotechnology and life sciences; and IT and supercomputing. The "Yaroslavl Roadmap" also advocates establishing trusted and complete intellectual property law and clear IP ownership rules for government-funded research, mandating international standards and regulations, and creating a network of state procurement agencies.
Download the full report here, "Yaroslavl 10-15-20." Or, for more information, please contact Adrienne Burke, Director, Public Outreach, The New York Academy of Sciences, aburke@nyas.org or 212.298.8655.
The New York Academy of Sciences is an independent, not-for-profit organization committed to advancing science, technology, and society worldwide since 1817. With close to 24,000 members in 140 countries, NYAS is creating a global community of science for the benefit of humanity. NYAS' core mission is to advance scientific knowledge, positively impact the major global challenges of society with science-based solutions, and increase the number of scientifically informed individuals in society at large.

Aberdeen Proving Ground Fire Department, Brave Enough To Wear Pink
DES Photo, a photo by Aberdeen Proving Ground on Flickr.
Directorate of Emergency Services firefighter and dispatchers wore pink t-shirts in October to support Breast Cancer Awareness Month. DES leaders allow the wear of "morale shirts" as long as they are worn as a group during agreed-upon functions.
"Just about everyone is touched by cancer of one kind or another," said Mike Slayman, assistant chief of EMS. "So everyone who wants to can buy a shirt and wear it during those times designated as a show of support or solidarity."
The back of the t-shirts read: "Aberdeen Proving Ground Fire Department, Brave enough to wear pink."

Whole grains have been a staple part of the human diets since humans started to cultivate cereal crops in the Middle East ten thousand years ago.
The grains (seeds) of cereal grasses were ground to make flours, but it was only in 350 BC that the larger civilizations, like those of the Greeks and Romans, began to grind grains more finely to make 'white' flour.
These have since become wildly popular, yet refined grains and flours are far more meagre in nutrients and fibre than their whole grain equivalents.
The tide is slowly turning though, as more and more people become aware of the benefits of eating whole grains for high blood pressure – and a variety of other health reasons.
So what exactly are whole grains?
The 'germ' is the innermost part, the embryo of the plant, which would germinate and grow if the grain was planted; this is where most of the nutrients are concentrated, so its rich in vitamins and minerals and oils the 'endosperm' is the starchy part that makes up most of the grain the 'bran' is the layer which surrounds the endosperm, which is rich in fibre and nutrients the 'husk' is the harder outermost covering, which is inedible.
The husk is always removed during the process of milling the grain, but with refined grains, the bran and germ parts are removed too. This just leaves the endosperm, which is full of starchy carbohydrate but not much else.
Whole grains on the other hand still have the germ and bran parts, and so are full of all the original nutrients and fibre.
Refining grains extends the shelf life of the grain, and of course, gives it a finer texture, but is this really worth it, when most of the original nutrients of the plant are lost?
This loss of nutrition is compounded by the practices of mass agriculture, which means that many grains today, even if not refined, are less nutritious than in the past. All the more reason to switch to whole grains to get as much natural goodness as you can.
Compared to refined grains, whole grains are rich in nutrients, high in fibre, and don't raise blood sugar levels as much – all of which means it's helpful to eat whole grains for blood pressure.
Eating whole grains regularly can reduce your risk of heart disease, protect against metabolic syndrome – which is linked to heart disease and stroke, and be helpful in losing/controlling weight.
So it's a good idea to replace any refined grain products you eat with whole grain products.
You can do this gradually – by changing just one product at a time. This is easier on your body anyway, especially if you're not used to eating much fibre. Try to make "half your grains whole", as the US Dietary Guidelines suggest.
Have whole grain bread instead of white bread, whole grain pasta, brown rice. And eat whole grain oats for breakfast!
Most processed or ready-made food you buy – like crackers, pastries, cookies etc – will be made from refined white flour. So look for whole grain versions, e.g., in health food shops, or make it yourself with whole grain flour (or even just half whole grain flour, half regular flour).
There are many opportunities to switch to whole grains – it's not restricted to pure grain products like bread, pasta or rice. Any product containing grains or flours, you can find a whole grain alternative – bagels, muffins, crackers.
The same goes for cooking and baking – you can use whole grain flours and grains in all kinds of recipes, not only the main ingredient in baked goods, but also as fillers and thickeners in soups and stews.
You can mix and match too – mix whole grain and regular pasta for example (you may need to cook them separately though, as they make take different times to cook). And if you aren't keen on some particular whole grain alternative, try a new grain altogether: quinoa is a great substitute for couscous or white rice; spelt pasta, bread or flour is a good replacement for wheat.
As well as buying whole grain pasta, you can also make your own pasta from scratch. If you're interested in doing this, you could try this delicious recipe for whole wheat sage spaghetti, shared with us by Jennifer from the 'Jen Reviews' website: Whole Wheat Sage Spaghetti – Jen Reviews (just go easy on adding presunto, since cured meats aren't good for high blood pressure).
When you're switching to whole grain products, do yourself a favour, and give a little attention to making sure you're getting a good quality whole grain product.
When buying bread for example, go for freshly baked whole grain bread when you can, rather than a pre-packaged bread, which probably won't taste as good and will be full of additives and possibly sugars that you don't need.
If you're going to make a difference, then make it count.
As always, it's important to always read labels when you're buying food, to make sure you're getting what you think you are. However, this is particularly important for whole grains, as their labelling can be slightly misleading. Many names and phrases are used which are designed to sound wholesome and healthy, but when you read the list of ingredients you might still find the main one to be wheat flour or some other refined grain.
Look for foods labelled as 'whole grain' (or 'whole wheat', 'whole oats' etc), and preferably labelled '100% whole grain/wheat/whatever'. Look at the list of ingredients too – and make sure that 'whole grain' appears among the first few ingredients.
And enjoy eating whole grains whole-heartedly – good for your overall health including your heart and blood pressure.
In addition to whole grains there is a large choice of affordable natural ingredients that lower blood pressure. Many of these spices, herbs, berries, fruits, vegetables, meats and drinks are available in local stores.

Q: Problem while using Load when clause? I need to reject the rows from an external table which starts (first column of every row) with some special characters (eg. ~ \ etc) in a CSV file.
For that I have used LOAD WHEN clause in the ACCESS PARAMETERS clause. I have been using the following statement in the Access parameters clause:
load when (1:1) != '~'

But it throws an error stating "INVALID CHARACTER"
If I try to use the below statement,
load when (empname != '~empname')

It throws:
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-29913: error in executing ODCIEXTTABLEFETCH callout
ORA-06512: at "SYSTEM.EMP_PROCEDURE", line 101
ORA-06512: at line 1

Line 101 in the procedure is select * from emp;
How do I use LOAD WHEN clause - any examples?

A: Have you tried using the ASCII value of a tilde?
load when (1:1) != CHR(126)

A: You could use this:
LOAD WHEN (1:1) != 0x'7e'

[SWP: Behind the Book] Criticism and Perseverance
This blog was featured on 02/12/2018

Author Struggles
I was excited as I drove to visit Ellie, a member of my writer's group, who had offered to read the first draft of my memoir. On the phone, she'd said she was enjoying it, so I was ready for a big ego boost, like that scene in the film Sophie's Choice when Nathan is so impressed with the first draft of Stingo's novel that he pulls out a bottle of Champaign and declares him a literary genius. That is not what happened at Ellie's.
A writing teacher and author of her own memoir, Eleanor Stanford said I had too many themes and not enough detail. Also, I was a little preachy. She liked the chapters set in Africa, where I had been in the Peace Corps, but I needed more scenes, more dialogue. As she spoke, I jotted down a few notes. Then came the real punch in the gut. Among the many story lines was my growing concern about climate change, especially how it was hurting the African country where I had lived in my twenties.
"Cut that out," said Ellie. "Climate change shouldn't even be in this book."
I was blinking back tears by the time I reached my car. What does she know? I thought to myself. This is my book. I can write about whatever I want. I couldn't cut climate change, I realized at that moment. It was the thing that had changed my life.
I'd given the draft to two other friends to read at the same time. They agreed that there were too many themes, but disagreed about what should stay and what should go. Was it really a story about money and values? Or was it about my midlife spiritual crisis? "Of course you can't cut climate change," said one when I told her Ellie's feedback.
Hearing three perspectives made this much clear: my readers could show me that I wasn't yet telling my story well, but only I could decide what that story would be.
I'd had a similar struggle in the early stages of my previous book, The Wisdom to Know the Difference. It was about the balance between acceptance and action described in the Serenity Prayer, but when I showed the first thirty pages to a friend who is a New York Times bestseller, she said the idea was too heady. "Just write about serenity," she said. "That's what people really want."
I felt devastated and for about twenty minutes considered abandoning the concept, but the next day, I went back to work, clearer about what I wanted to say and the kind of stories I'd need to make the ideas accessible. (The Wisdom to Know the Difference was endorsed by the Dalai Lama, won two awards, and earned out its advance from Tarcher/Penguin.)
For a writer, the Serenity Prayer is actually a pretty good guide to feedback. We need serenity to accept that we won't please everyone while having the courage to do a complete overhaul when the critics are right. The trick, of course, is the wisdom to know the difference. With my memoir, I decided to pay special attention to anything said by more than one of my three critics. Since they all felt the writing came alive when I joined the Peace Corps, I made that the first chapter, condensing my family history and moving it further back in the story.
I knew I wasn't the same kind of writer as Ellie and shouldn't pretend to be. She's a poet, whose nonfiction has been described as "shimmering" and "graceful." I'm more of an idea gal, whose work has been called "wise" and "inspiring." I was interested in reflection more than description, though that didn't mean that I couldn't learn something from a poet. I went through the whole manuscript, cutting the preachy parts and adding details and dialogue, as Ellie suggested—then cutting large chunks of it all in the third draft as I gradually got clearer about the central themes.
By then, an editor I knew was interested in having his small press publish it, but I felt in my gut that the book could still be better and that it could appeal to a wider audience if I got the tone and story arc right. Having done as much as I could on my own, I hired She Writes Press co-founder Brooke Warner to be my coach after listening to one of her webinars on memoir. I asked her to help me figure out where to begin and end the story and to make sure the tone wasn't still preachy.
Between our four sessions, I discarded the whiny preface about my unhappiness at age forty-nine and replaced it with the story of my first act of civil disobedience at age fifty. Chapter One still went back in time to the Peace Corps, but now I carried the narrative through my midlife crisis and my return to southern Africa for my fiftieth birthday, ending with the civil disobedience that began the book (where I photo-bombed actress Darryl Hannah, if you want a teaser). Brooke affirmed that this structure made the story more "satisfying" for the reader and tied together the themes of political and personal empowerment.
In the end, the memoir turned out to be the story of a woman who, at midlife, realized that she was not living in sync with her youthful values and set about to reclaim them. I'm not sure Ellie will recognize Renewable: One Woman's Search for Simplicity, Faithfulness, and Hope (pub date March 3), but I'm convinced it's a better book because of her feedback and the struggle to find my own voice that it provoked.

And yet Nina Gaby, I have watched other emerging writers react with defensive hostility to well intended criticism. In doing this, they cut themselves off from an opportunity to improve. I don't want to be that perdon either. I think the answer is to assess the credibilty of the critic, and then step away and gain some objectivity as Eileen Flanagan did in her blog. Sway with the breeze but don't let the gale uproot you. Thank you for your thoughtful response Nina.
Nina Gaby
Catherine- In an unrelated event moments before I read your comment, I was reading the reviews for a CD I was considering from Amazon- the new Counting Crows Album. The reviews were comparing this album to the band's really early, raw, stream of consciousness work, early Dylan and Springsteen were mentioned, and it brought me to the question of editing that you are asking here. My heart still skips a beat when I listen to those early words and riffs and feel bored at the recent and overly edited music that those artists are turning out now. When I was a clay artist, the freshness of the material was important- we didn't overly edit the work for the fear the freshness would be gone. When the freshness was gone for me I changed careers. It is very different for writers. There may be some poets that can get away with minimal editing, probably not. The challenge is to polish and polish and still fool ourselves that it is spontaneous. And still our story. As I have been editing other's work for my anthology, I am astounded at how difficult a task this is. I believe we can identify the important theme and maintain fidelity with that and be ok. And being edited, arguing about a simple phrase here and there, I decide often to just let it go. Bringing me back to my initial question, does the work just become tired and not even mine. But as you said, that is why we hire an editor.
We live in a delicate balance between being open and accepting of criticism and allowing our stories to become hijacked by the perspectives of others. I'm stymied right now after having gotten my work back from my editor. I can implement her changes. That's why I hired an editor. But will the novel still be my story?
Thanks for sharing your story, Eileen. It gave me chills to read the opening of this. So often people are told by others to cut what most matters to them and it's so sad—and you end up compromising your book. Well done. We're so proud to be publishing your work!
Betsy Teutsch
good grief, so glad you didn't cut climate change out! interesting parallel - mid-life crisis and eco-crisis. See you in NYC on Sunday at the interfaith climate march, perhaps?!
I forget to invoke the serenity prayer for myself (I use it with my patients) so I appreciate its application here. And the cover is to die for. Thanks!
Kelley Clink
Fantastic! Can't wait to read it!

Thank you, Eileen, for bravely and humorously spilling your guts and writing process - especially when it comes to constructive criticism. My memoir has gone through similar incarnations and revisions and I totally agree that the final decisions come down to self-awareness of who you are and your message, and not about the expertise of the critic - which is totally right for them or a writer like them. So encouraging!


I'll start with this being on Barnes and Noble's "23 of Our Most Anticipated LGBTQA YA Books of 2017" list. Then I'll add in that it was originally published (titled "The Flywheel") in Australia in 2014 to much acclaim. This already sets it up as one to look for! This is an intensely readable book, one that you will just fly through, although that would be my only issue with the book as well – it's a little shorter than I would have liked. Although the characters were well-developed, I wouldn't have minded MORE of them. More backstory, more information about Delilah's discovery of her sexuality from a younger age, more on her parents' marriage earlier on. All the events of the book are laid out well, and the account of the bullying in school and her counselor's reaction just made my heart break. The bullying depicted in this story make it so apparent why a student in Delilah's situation might in fact drop out of school. The romance between Delilah and Rosa is as sweet and tender as any YA romance I have read. Highly recommend for all school library collections. Stated as Grades 9 and up, but I would be okay with younger – only some minor sexual content.
I received a digital ARC of this title for review- all opinions are my own.
Let's start this with a plea to Bloomsbury Spark to get this ebook into paper publishing ASAP – I guarantee it would be a huge hit in my high school library! I would hand it to every single girl who loves the "Anna and the French Kiss" series by Stephanie Perkins, as well as the Morgan Matson et al fans. It is compared to The Devil Wears Prada in the blurb, and I completely concur. As an adult reader who adores Lauren Weisenberger, Sophie Kinsella and other frothy, feel-good chick lit, I was completely captured by this story and fully appreciated the timeliness of the YouTube, vlogging, Instagram and Twitter storylines. That's happening NOW, and as I just read in a piece about YA lit being the genre to change the world, YA can be NOW much more easily than adult lit can. Yes, technology may change in the near(ish) future, but YouTube, Instagram, and Twitter are not going to be dying soon enough that this book won't enjoy a few hot-selling years on the shelves before Summer gets her next book out. The main character in this book, Lacey, is a tech-savvy female YouTube sensation and shows an amazing amount of tech skills, emotional strength and moral fortitude in this story ~ these are the characters we want teen girls to see and read! While this isn't necessarily a hard-hitting piece of social journalism, it truly IS a snapshot of teen culture today that wrestles with the line between social media and true selves and the need to balance these. I read this book in less than 24 hours and would love to be able to get it into my library, but for now will just tell students about it and tell them to spend the $3.82 it costs on Kindle right now…….if they will be willing to read it in digital. I hope they will, but I also hope it gets put into a gorgeous shimmery pink trade paperback version sooner than later.
Fans of Zoella's Girl Online will fall right into the world of this YA The Devil Wears Prada and stay hooked from the first blush to the last glossy kiss.

What Girls Are Made Of by Elana K. Arnold is hands-down the most feminist book I have ever read. And the most unflinchingly graphic YA book I have ever read. There are pages and pages of quotes I would love to share that just cut to the feminist core, but technically I can't share them here because I read an uncorrected proof of the book. Once I get a final copy, I will update to share some of them!
This is the one and only book I have read that talks about every single thing that we (speaking as a parent, teacher and librarian) like to pretend that teen girls don't think about or do, but if we think back to our time as teens………we thought about and possibly did as well. We just didn't have this exquisite/disgusting, beautiful/disturbing, truthful/magical book to read to articulate the thoughts we had about entering womanhood and all the inequities and contradictions involved in that rite of passage. The magical realism stories between chapters are strange and disturbing, but at the same time incredibly symbolic and poetic. As the mother-daughter relationship got more and more complex as the past was revealed, I realized there was never once (that I can recall) a interaction between Nina and her father. Telling to be sure. Descriptions of virgin martyrs and twisted tales of saints are blended in throughout the story, including horrifying stories told to Nina as a child by her mother, leading readers to understand just why Nina may be the Nina she became. I appreciated the message of service and cried at the descriptions of the impossibility of unconditional love (which I disagree with, by the way).
As I wrestled with and appreciated the extremely blunt and graphic language (including detailed naming of reproductive organs and descriptions of orgasms and an abortion) within this book, I was attempting to decide whether or not I could place "What Girls Are Made Of" in my high school library…….and then I remembered that I bought and read and handed "Asking for It" by Louise O'Neill to senior girls. Because it was amazing and it won a huge award this year. And if I could hand that book to high school kids, I can hand this book to young adults. Mature ones. Is this YA like Sarah Dessen is YA? No. But neither is Angie Thomas and THUG is winning every star and award out there. And high schoolers are lining up to read it. Would I hand this to middle school girls? Not necessarily, but I'd be fine with my own daughter reading it in middle school.
What Girls Are Made Of deserves awards, even if adult readers like to think girls like these don't exist. They do. They are ALL girls.

Reading Sofia's story brought me instantly back to my days of pouring over YM and Seventeen magazines in the early 90s ~ all of the angst and uncertainty combined with absolute hope that growing up would make life easier, and that magazines and advice columns could decode the entire process. This book is about grief, to be sure, but it's at the same time an incredibly happy book, as Sofia manages to miss and remember her mom so poignantly while finally experiencing a whole new life. I loved the authenticity the author's educational background in Spanish brought to the story, and Sofia's connection to her and her mother's shared Spanish heritage gave the story additional depth. Growing up, death, divorce and moving on are all difficult topics, but Weston manages to write them in a way that leaves readers smiling and hopeful. VERDICT: Highly recommended for grades 6-10.
Sofia lost her mother eight months ago, and her friends were 100% there for her. Now it's a new year and they're ready for Sofia to move on.
Problem is, Sofia can't bounce back, can't recharge like a cellphone. She decides to write Dear Kate, an advice columnist for Fifteen Magazine, and is surprised to receive a fast reply. Soon the two are exchanging emails, and Sofia opens up and spills all, including a few worries that are totally embarrassing. Turns out even advice columnists don't have all the answers, and one day Sofia learns a secret that flips her world upside down.
SPEED OF LIFE is the heartbreaking, heartwarming story of a girl who thinks her life is over when really it's just beginning. It's a novel about love, family, grief, and growing up.

Internet 'increasingly prominent' in radicalisation of extremists – research
December 8, 2022 4 Mins Read United Kingdom
Terrorists are now more likely to be radicalised online but plots hatched on the internet are prone to fail, research suggests.
Academics examined the role the internet played in the radicalisation of 437 convicted extremist offenders in England and Wales in a study published by the Ministry of Justice (MoJ).
It said the internet is "increasingly prominent" in radicalisation but plots from attackers radicalised online were "most likely" to be foiled.
Findings suggest that the internet has become increasingly prominent in radicalisation pathways and offending over time for convicted extremists in England and Wales
A third of the sample of criminals considered in the research had mental health problems or personality disorders. Conditions most commonly reported included Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC) and depression, with these "most common" among those mainly radicalised online, the findings indicated.
Analysis of specialist reports from 2010 to the end of last year also suggested the biggest increase in online radicalisation over time was among female offenders and people aged over 25, researchers said.
The report said: "Findings suggest that the internet has become increasingly prominent in radicalisation pathways and offending over time for convicted extremists in England and Wales.
"Technological advances have led to changes in the types of applications/platforms used over time.
"Mental health issues, neurodivergence and personality disorder/difficulties were relevant for a sizable proportion of the sample, with ASC, depression and personality disorder/difficulties recorded as the most common types of disorders, particularly for those who have primarily radicalised online.
"For attackers specifically, those exposed to online influences in their radicalisation pathway were more likely to use the online domain for attack planning behaviours …
"Those attackers reported as being primarily radicalised online were found to be the least successful in plotting attacks and most likely to see their plots foiled at the planning stage."
The research was carried out by Nottingham Trent (NTU) and Bournemouth universities with the Prison and Probation Service and follows on from a report published last year.
It highlights the importance of providing mental health support to those convicted of extremist offences to ensure they do not go on to reoffend or commit further acts of terrorism
Dr Christopher Baker-Beall, Bournemouth University
Lead author Dr Jonathan Kenyon said the study provided a "contemporary picture" of the online activities of convicted extremists in England and Wales until the end of 2021 and found "marked differences" in behaviour and offending between those who were radicalised on the internet, in person or a mixture of both. This highlights the importance of taking these factors into account when "assessing risk" and considering how to tackle terrorism, he said.
Dr Jens Binder, associate professor of psychology at NTU's School of Social Sciences, said mainstream websites and apps were "routinely" used, "sometimes to reach out to the many users there and to lead some of them to more secluded online locations" which is "likely to require a more pro-active and transparent approach from tech companies" so radical content is reported.
Dr Christopher Baker-Beall, senior lecturer in crisis and disaster management at the Bournemouth University Disaster Management Centre, stressed the findings were "not suggesting that those with mental illness represent a community from which terrorists are more likely to originate. Nor does the report suggest that mental illness be viewed as a predictor of terrorist intent. Instead, it highlights the importance of providing mental health support to those convicted of extremist offences to ensure they do not go on to reoffend or commit further acts of terrorism".
The MoJ said the views expressed in the report are those of the authors and "are not necessarily shared" by the department, adding: "Nor do they represent Government policy".

Just wait 10 minutes and the weather will change. I have been waiting all week for this rain and dreary weather to go away, to no avail. The poor New England Meteorologists might as well be on a constant dismal loop. "The weather will be rainy and chilly again today, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday… Oh wait we might get a tiny bit of sun on Friday. But Saturday will be dreary again, and Mothers Day.. Well that is a good day for letting mom sleep. Finally the sun will make an appearance on Monday!!!
By Monday I will be wrinkled and damp and ready to float away. I know we need the rain, we have been so dry that we have been under a fire warning. But did the rain really need to come all in the same week?
Everyone complains about the weather, but no one does anything about it. We just grumble and whine.

Q: yum syntax to get jboss on centos? What's the syntax to get JBoss AS (latest, say 7.1.1) on CentOS (latest, 6.5)? I tried
su
yum install jbossas

but get the error
No package jbossas available.
Error: Nothing to do

Either I need to add some repos to yum or the package name is wrong. I understand I can just unzip the .zip into /bin/ per this post, but that would lead to messy/orphaned files in upgrades, so I'm looking for open, community repos that might have the jboss-as binaries.

A: So far my knowledge, you can not do this using yum at CentOS. Also, you can not upgrade from one version of JBoss into another one automatically(like any software or compiler do it automatically). Things are totally different here. For example JBoss 5.1 is having a totally different directory architecture compare to JBoss 7.1.


The president has invited executives from major airlines to join him as he kicks off the week with one of his more controversial plans: spinning off the air traffic control functions of the Federal Aviation Administration to a nonprofit corporation.

The government is likely to lose more than $1 billion in airline ticket taxes because lawmakers have left town for a month without resolving a partisan standoff over a bill to end the partial shutdown of the Federal Aviation Administration.
Officials for Southwest Airlines and the Federal Aviation Administration "falsified the report" that said the airline had come into compliance with rules for crucial safety inspections for jets, according to records released by a U.S. House committee.

Cate Blanchett was named a UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador in May 2016. Following a visit to settlements in Bangladesh's Cox's Bazar in March 2018, she warned of a "race against time" to protect Rohingya refugees from the worst impacts of the upcoming monsoon season. She called for urgent action from the international community to support UNHCR and its partners, working alongside the Government of Bangladesh, to avoid an "emergency within an emergency". In August 2018, to mark the first anniversary of the onset of the Rohingya emergency, Blanchett spoke movingly to the UN Security Council, sharing individual stories of refugees she had met, and urging the international community to provide much-needed support in Bangladesh, as well as to ensure conditions in Myanmar that would allow the voluntary, safe and dignified return of refugees.
In January 2018 Blanchett was awarded the prestigious Crystal Award at the World Economic Forum, honouring her tireless advocacy for refugees. In her capacity as UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador Cate called on political and business leaders at the World Economic Forum, Davos to rethink their approach to refugees, emphasizing the need for compassion and burden-sharing. During an interview with Nick Kristof of the New York Times, she called for a renewed focus on the human perspective. She also visited UNHCR's headquarters to meet staff.
Blanchett has undertaken fact-finding missions to Lebanon, and Jordan, to meet refugees and stateless people who have been displaced by the Syrian conflict. She has also visited Australia to celebrate UNHCR's 'Human Lives, Human Rights' campaign, which marked the 40th anniversary of the first major refugee arrival. Blanchett is committed to raising awareness on issues of forced displacement, and, in particular, on the scourge of statelessness which affects millions of people worldwide, denying them basic rights, including access to education, healthcare and the ability to work and travel.
In 2016, Blanchett helped bring together a group of artists to perform an ensemble reading of Jenifer Toksvig's poem 'What They Took With Them'. Blanchett launched a unique "world tour" of Facebook Live events, featuring supporters across the globe highlighting the urgent need for solidarity with refugees. Blanchett has spoken about the refugee crisis at the Google Zeitgeist event, and the Women in the World Conference. Blanchett has supported UNHCR partners including the Saïd and Asfari Foundations' 'Hands up for Syria' appeal and the Dutch Postcode Lottery.
In 2015, Cate travelled to Lebanon to meet with Syrian refugees, as well as to hear testimonies from stateless people as part of her broader support for UNHCR's #IBelong Campaign. One stateless person she met was Rama, a young girl with huge ambitions, but with her potential limited by her lack of nationality and all the rights that bestows. Blanchett also spoke with Ahmad, a Syrian refugee who left home with his family, but hopes to return to Syria one day and fulfill his dream of becoming an airline pilot.
Cate has also met refugee and asylum-seeker families in Brisbane who had previously been transferred by Australia to Christmas Island, Nauru and Papua New Guinea. She heard firsthand of the immense harm they had suffered under Australia's "offshore-processing" approach. Additionally, she visited resettled refugees and celebrated UNHCR's 'Human Lives, Human Rights' campaign in Queensland, marking the 40th anniversary of the first major refugee arrival.
In 2017 Blanchett was awarded the Companion of the Order of Australia in the General Division for her eminent service to the performing arts as an international stage and screen actor, through seminal contributions as director of artistic organizations, as a role model for women and young performers, and as a supporter of humanitarian and environmental causes. Blanchett has been awarded the Centenary Medal for Service to Australian Society through Acting and in 2014, received a Doctor of Letters honoris causa from Macquarie University. Blanchett received the 2015 Lifetime Achievement award from the Australian Academy Awards and was awarded the Chevalier de l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres by the French Minister for Culture in 2012, in recognition of her significant contributions to the arts. In 2007, she was named one of TIME Magazine's 100 Most Influential People.
