Aron Gelbard, The New Flower Movement. Today we take a look at reinventing the flower power movement for a new generation, making it possible for people to have flowers in their lives, all the time. For more ideas on Uprising and movements, cultural movements and movement marketing, follow Uprising!!! on Facebook. We'll continue to publish brand-new columns on a regular basis. Hey, do us a favor and please give Uprising!!! a review on iTunes. Scott Goodson is the author of best-selling book 'Uprising: how to build a brand and change the world by sparking cultural movements,' available on Amazon.com. Scott has helped create and build some of the world's most iconic brands. He is founder of StrawberryFrog the world's first movement marketing agency.
TEASE: I think the movement allows you to communicate through technology and through flower gifting which isn't going away and won't go away. If you find out a friend maybe had a promotion or a new house or having a baby–these important moments in life– you could just send a WhatsApp or double tap their Instagram, but as you said yourself, people have been gifting flowers for centuries. We want to make sending flowers as easy as sending that What's App message. It's that much more fulfilling. That's the approach we've taken.
In the 19th century during the Victorian era, people would send each other flowers to communicate. Everything had a meeting: the size, the color, the type of flower, the placement of each in the vase; it all meant something. In fact, there were flower dictionaries to help decode the messages in each delivery.
The Victorians weren't the first to use flowers to communicate. Ancient Greeks, Romans and Chinese show signs of flower giving in their stories.
So, flower giving isn't something new. Now, we give them to mom on Mother's Day or to a lover to show our love or to show our condolences.
Today on the Uprising pod, we have someone who is trying to revolutionize the flower movement with his company Bloom & Wild. Please welcome Aron Gelbard. Thank you Aron for being here.
ARON: Of course. I am happy to be here.
SCOTT: If flowers have been around for centuries, how is Bloom & Wild breathing new air into this age-old industry and sparking a movement?
ARON: Great question. Like you said, fower giving has been around for many thousands of years. That was one of the reasons why we were confident that it's not going to go away in the next many years and why it appealed to us. I guess our observations were that flower buying is a very Google-led shopping mission at the moment. Other categories like take away or car service used to also be Google led. But, in recent years brands have evolved to use technology to create fantastic customer experiences and built emotional connections with customers. These brands are in categories that are a lot less emotives than flowers buying, which we do a few times a year. We hope that we build a brand that people love and depend on technology and logistics to create a brand that people love.
SCOTT: Your business reached such great success, but what movement are you trying to create with this business? What is the wrong that you are trying to right?
ARON: We think flower buying should be a moment of joy for the gifter and a serendipitous moment for the recipient. I guess the wrong that we are trying to right is a flower gift buyer feeling frustrated rather than elevated at the end of a purchase. More importantly, a flower recipient receiving a bouquet of flowers and feeling disappointed and having something to hide from the person giving them the gift rather than having something they are proud to share that something made their day.
SCOTT: Have you ever been that frustrated flower giver when trying to order flowers?
ARON: Yes, I have. That is the one of the reasons I did start the business. I found buying flowers online in the past–and I still do find flower buying around the world is a real challenge. It's difficult to choose between options. It's expensive. There are hidden costs. You're not sure what you see is what it's actually going to be when it arrives. You don't know if it is going to be delivered successfully. You don't actually know if the flowers are going to actually be delivered as what you see when you're placing your order online. Those are all things that don't need to be in the big case and that we are actually addressing.
SCOTT: The millennial generation or Gen Z are most powerful in energizing a movement. Why should the millennial generation care about the movement you created with Bloom & Wild?
ARON: I think that the millennial generation are much more so than their parent's generation, much more likely to be mobile in terms of where they lived and often they move to another city to pursue opportunity and travel. They are more likely to explore more horizons. They are less likely to clutter up their premises with a lot of stuff. They often live in a lot of smaller spaces and in cities. They will be busy. They will often be pursuing careers that give afford rapid success but not a lot of spare time. For people like that, I think the ability to have a flower company or go-to gift that they can trust enables them to stay connected with their parents, friends, and family that are geographically far to them in a way that is easy on mobile. It's something that people need because it needs that they don't have the guilt of being separated and not paying attention to family.
SCOTT: Before this, you started out as a consultant at Bain Capital and then transitioned into entrepreneurship. Was there a cultural insight that drove you from your corporate office and into the world of flowers and entrepreneurship?
ARON: I grew up basically as an only child and I moved to the UK as a young child from overseas. I think that made me worry and obsessed with pleasing people. I came from a family of entrepreneurs. My grandads were entrepreneurs. I always wanted to start something one day. But, I wanted it to be something that would genuinely make a positive difference. I wasn't clever enough or educated enough to cure a disease. My scope for doing this was limited. I thought the flower category was an opportunity to bring happiness to people and that was something that motivated me to leave the Bain life behind and go out and start something.
SCOTT: Not only did you bring happiness to the flower industry, you also brought your experience from Bain Capital. You created a tech-focused, data-driven, and modern company. How did this technology help your movement succeed?
ARON: I don't think a movement can succeed without technology nowadays. I think people discover everything through technology. It's almost a given. It's not that if you have great tech, you'll succeed. It's if you don;t tech, then you don't have a chance. Once you have great tech, then you will need to have other things that others expect. You need to give people something that will make them love you. I think the ease of technology is a big part of it. I think our floristry and our branding is a big part of it. I think it is partly care and attention to detail put into our customer service and physical product. And then, it's partly the innovation and delivery method and getting flowers to people's mailboxes.
SCOTT: Say I am on the market for a bouquet of flowers for my mother, why is it easier and more innovative to order from Bloom & Wild rather than your competitors?
ARON: We made it possible to order flowers in literally seconds. We really paired down the amount of questions we really need to ask a customer and the amount of typing a customer needs to do, especially on a mobile device. We did this in a few ways. Firstly, there are all sorts of questions that companies ask that you don't need to ask. For example, you don't need to ask for a billing address, yet a lot of companies do so to gather data. You don't need to ask somebody for their name if they are a returning customer via their email address. Asking for the name is a redundant piece of information. When you're on a crowded train on your way home trying to order flowers for your mother's birthday tomorrow, taking out some of that typing which you have to do with one hand while holding on to the train with the other. It's a big difference. It makes it a lot easier. In addition, there is a lot of information that is stored natively on our mobile devices. The devices know the addresses of our loved ones. They know when the birthdays of our loved ones are. They know our payment details. All of those things are available yet people type them into their devices again and again countless times. By investing in mobile and explaining the benefits of interacting with us on mobile rather than on a computer, that's critical nowadays.
SCOTT: Movements have a language of their own. Unlike other flower companies, you deliver flowers in letterboxes, and they arrive preassembled. What has been the response to flowers being delivered in such a way?
ARON: When we started, we thought people would accept flowers through the letterbox and arranging themselves because we thought letterbox delivery would be convenient. One of the things that most surprised us was actually we are almost exclusively a gifting company and instead of people thinking that unarranged flowers are not a suitable gift. Instead we learned women like to gift to other women gifts that they would like to receive themselves. While men gifting to women that comes with a preconception that women like to receive a big bunch of flowers, actually women understand that women enjoy the creative process of having input into the final product. As a result, we have ended up being a gifting company and I think the fact that we have our products in this format is not only convenient in the terms of delivery, it's also has this added benefit of allowing recipients to engage in the creative process of floristry.
SCOTT: As we know, movements need to be fluid and ready for change. You know that first hand, as you just touched upon this. What was it like starting this business and thinking it was going to be something and then realizing that it was something else? What was that transition like?
ARON: When we started, we were focused on self purchased flower subscriptions. We thought people would want flowers regularly because they die and you need a replacement and they would immediately come through the flower box. We had some sales but not huge sales but then we thought about making it possible to order one off gifts as well. We added a second call to action on our homepage saying "send as a gift." Immediately, 90% of orders were gift orders and 10% of orders were self purchased subscription orders. We started to scale. We were really able to use that customer data and insight to achieve customer market fares. As a result of that, we needed to change our economic model. We changed our price point upwards significantly since we started in order to remain competitive. The economics as a gifting company are quite different because you aren't able to make back your investment and acquiring a customer over a number of deliveries. You have to see that you will do it in one or two deliveries. On the other hand, when you're committing to something being a part of your monthly household budgets, and it's your mother's birthday once a year, you'll maybe going to be a little more generous. This customer insight not only helped us achieve product market fare but also made us rethink what type of flowers we do, what price we do, how we display them. We message thing to customers on our site, app and email.
SCOTT: How important would you say is it to adapt as your movement changes?
ARON: It is critical to adapt as your movement changes. I think one of the things that created an opportunity for us are the other flower companies that have not adapted at the same pace we have. Be that embracing technology. Be that new packaging. Be that embracing new products or personalization.
SCOTT: As we discussed at the top of the show, flowers have been used as a form of communication for centuries. But, today we mainly communicate through technology. Why is it important to keep these older, more traditional forms of communications alive?
ARON: I don't think we are at odds with each other. I think the movement allows you to communicate through technology and through flower gifting which isn't going away and won't goa way. If you find out a friend maybe had a promotion or a new house or having a baby–these important moments in life– you could just send a WhatsApp or double tap their Instagram, but as you said yourself, people have been gifting flowers for centuries. We want to make sending flowers as easy as sending that What's App message. It's that much more fulfilling. That's the approach we've taken. As a result, we got the best of both worlds.
SCOTT: You keep saying flowers are so powerful. Why are flowers and your movement so powerful?
ARON: I think there is an inherent joy and beauty in beautiful things. I wish I understood why that was the case. But, we as human beings are attracted to things that are beautiful. We like to cuddle up with beautiful people. We like to travel to beautiful places. We like to eat beautiful food. We like to look at beautiful art and architecture. I am confident that we are. I think flowers are beautiful thing that nature creates that are easy to deliver and easy to transport. They come to symbolize emotions. Flowers will be around for thousands of years to come just as they have been around thousands of years already.
SCOTT: Currently, you only operate in the UK. Where do you see your movement growing?
ARON: We are in the very early stages of expanding across Europe. We launched in France a few days ago. We are in the process of launching in Germany. We see a lot of similarities across those markets. There's a lot we can do from London. There's a lot of talent here. We are focusing on Europe and then beyond. I think the problems we are solving are universal and flowers are remarkably a universal gifting phenomenon. Delivery and supply change is a universal problem as well. Bloom & Wild is extremely exportable.
SCOTT: This was great. Where can listeners go to find out more about you and Bloom & Wild?
ARON: Bloom & Wild is visible on our website at bloomandwild.com or on the app store or play store. Subscribe to our newsletter via those channels and get regular updates. We are always innovating floristry and we have great social presence with beautiful content there too.
SCOTT: Thank you so much, Aron.

Yekuana
Yekuana - Orientation
Approximately 3,100 Yekuana inhabit a region of the Guiana highlands north of the upper Orinoco in Venezuela. Their territory is crossed by five major tributaries of the Orinoco—the Cunucunuma, Iguapo, Padamo, upper Ventuari, and upper Caura—and the area is mostly covered by tropical-forest growth with intermittent savannas. Three main subgroups of Makiritare can be distinguished, according to their geographic distribution along several of the major rivers of their habitat; they speak dialects of the same language, a member of the Carib Family. The various subgroups remain in more or less close contact with one another and connect with a wider interethnic trade network of the general Guiana region.
Because of the relative inaccessibility of their territory, the Yekuana came into contact with Spaniards and Portuguese only in the second half of the eighteenth century. Subsequently they rebelled against Christian proselytizing and exploitation by Whites and maintained only sporadic trade contacts with Europeans and criollos in the Guiana colonies and on the lower Orinoco.
The Yekuana prefer to locate their settlements at the lower elevations in close proximity to the rivers. The village consists of a large communal round house for all residents and one or more rectangular and wall-less work sheds with saddle roofs of palm thatch for visitors, especially non-Indians. The communal house consists of a circular wall of wattle and daub and a conical thatched roof. The internal space includes a circular central room that is reserved for ceremonial and ritual occasions. Men talk, eat, and work here, and shamans seated on carved benches hold curing séances near the central pole in the middle of the room. Unmarried men between puberty and marriage pass the night in this interior space. Women generally do not enter the room except to clean it and to serve the men their meals. The central room is separated from a concentric living space between it and the outer wall of the house by a wall of palm fronds, bark planks, or wattle and daub. This space is compartmentalized into several sections separated from each other by bark panels, each housing an extended family. The family compartments have a door that connects them with the central area. The floor plan of the communal house conforms to a concentric image of the terrestrial plain, and the overall architectural design of the structure is a replica of the original prototype built by Wanadi, the Supreme Being and culture hero of the Yekuana, in the likeness of a tiered celestial world.
Yekuana subsistence is based on shifting cultivation. Bitter manioc is the staple crop, but sweet manioc, taro, yams, maize, bananas, squashes, sweet potatoes, peppers, sugarcane, pineapples, papayas, peppers, and tobacco are also grown. Cultivated cotton, arrow grass, and calabash trees provide important raw materials. Hunting by tracking or communal drive is an important subsistence activity and tapir, deer, peccaries, anteaters, male alligators, armadillos, and turtles are preferred game animals. Fishing is of decidedly lesser significance. Men may use harpoon arrows or join their women in fishing with hook and line or barbasco. Food gathering is of little economic importance, but earthworms, leafcutter ants, palm-borer larvae, turtle eggs, frogs, and several wild fruits and vegetables constitute much-appreciated seasonal fare.
Today many Yekuana men and women wear Western clothes. In earlier times they wore loincloths. Women wear small aprons or more elaborate rectangular or trapezoidal ones of red, white, and blue glass beads and tassels of dried seed pods. Necklaces of glass beads and strings crossing the male and female torso are made of glass beads interspersed with seeds, animal teeth, claws, and deer hoofs. Both sexes, but especially women, wear wristlets and firmly tied bands around the upper arm, ankle, and below the knee so that biceps and calf muscles become permanently pronounced. Triangular silver plates are worn by women, and men wear similar ones of a crescent shape. Men insert pieces of arrow reed decorated with colorful bird feathers through holes in their earlobes. Men and women cut their hair short around the head, and red and dark blue body paint is very important to them.
Division of labor is by sex and age. Men cut the forest and burn the trees and underbrush in preparation for a new garden. They also hunt, weave outstanding pieces of monochrome and decorative multicolored basketry, and make cotton hammocks, ropes of plant fibers, crude pottery, excellent dugout canoes, ritual benches carved from a single piece of wood in the shape of a stylized jaguar, blowguns, and other hunting and fishing gear as well as a large variety of musical instruments. Women spin cotton, cultivate and harvest the gardens, and make wicker carrying baskets, manioc graters, and aesthetically pleasing beaded-glass aprons. Women spend much time in the processing of manioc and general food preparation. Nowadays old women may also be seen making pottery, and both sexes collaborate in barbasco fishing.
Yekuana society is based on autonomous villages consisting of a number of extended families. Cousin kinship terminology has characteristic features of the Hawaiian and the Iroquois systems. Marriages between cross cousins, especially first-degree cross cousins, or classificatory grandparents and grandchildren are preferred. Polygynous unions between a man and consanguineally related or unrelated women are not infrequent. Local endogamy prevails, postmarital residence is uxorilocal, and descent is bilateral. As domestic units, Yekuana villages pass through three stages of maturation, including an incipient stage involving a single three-generation family of eight to twenty-seven people, a stage of achieving stability consisting of thirty to forty people, and a mature stage consisting of forty to eighty inhabitants or more. Political authority within the local group rests with the village headman and a circle of elders composed mainly of household heads. Internal conflict between individuals or extended families is handled by the aggrieved party supported by his or her extended family. Minor offenses are handled through gossip, indirect complaints, and temporary isolation of the aggrieved person. Major offenses may result in the fission of the village Community.
Both sexes traditionally underwent initiation ceremonies. A boy was whipped and subjected to an ant ordeal. A girl, at the time of her first menstruation, is secluded in the family quarters of the communal house. Six months after the seclusion period, her hair is cropped and she becomes eligible for marriage once her hair has regrown.
Yekuana cosmology is complex and distinguishes the three levels of heaven, earth, and underworld. The earth is connected with eight strata of heaven via the central pole of the communal house. Each stratum represents an important cosmological station, and the uppermost region is inhabited by Wanadi (the Supreme Being and son of the sun), his family, and a select group of ancestral spirits. Shamans can visit with Wanadi to receive their paraphernalia, including a jaguar bench, a sacred rattle, and celestial quartz crystals. As curers, they confront illnesses caused by spirit intrusion, transgression, and soul loss. They chant and rattle, fumigate with tobacco smoke, and massage, blow, and suck the sickness out of the patient. If death occurs outside the house, the dead are buried in a canoe at some distance from the village. People who die within the house are buried beneath their hammocks. Chiefs and the victims of multiple deaths, as during an epidemic, are buried inside the house, and the structure is burned to the ground. Shamans may be given a secondary burial. During the past several decades the Yekuana have been in closer contact with missionaries and criollos and their culture is increasingly being influenced by these contacts.

Střída byl způsob zaopatření nemajetných osob, založený na střídání poskytovatelů péče o dotyčnou osobu podle stanoveného systému (pořadníku) nebo domovních čísel. Chození po střídě bylo běžné do 70. let 19. století i déle. Jednotliví hospodáři v obci takto zajišťovali stravu, popřípadě také nocleh žebrákům (ale také třeba učitelům) domovsky příslušným do dotyčné obce. Někdy byli takto zaopatřovaní povinni hospodáři určitým způsobem pomáhat po dobu zaopatření v hospodářství.

Obdobně museli obyvatelé obce po střídě vykonávat určité práce nebo něco poskytovat pro obec (při výstavbě obecní pastoušky, údržbě cest, vydržování obecního býka apod.).

31st annual, FossilFest 2018 – The Ice Age Returns!
TAMPA, FLORIDA, February 10, 2018 - In Florida's last Ice Age, prehistoric people hunted mammoths, built pyramids along Florida's coast, and lived in fear of the saber cat, giant lion, and wolf. On March 10th and 11th, the Florida State Fairgrounds will go back in time to a different place, a different Florida, a land long lost. The Tampa Bay Fossil Club presents the 31st annual, FossilFest 2018 – The Ice Age Returns!
adults designed to teach the public about Florida's exciting prehistoric past. A time when saber-toothed cats, giant wolves, sharks as big as school buses, and prehistoric Indians ruled Florida's peninsula. Also on display will be gems, minerals, fossil shells, and antique bottles. Vendors will be on hand to sell and trade fossils found both here in Florida, and all over the world.
"Our goal is to teach Floridians about the prehistoric creatures and people that were here long before us," says club president Mike Searle. "You don't have travel to far-away exotic places to find these fossils. Mammoths, wolves, camels, and rhinos lived right here where we live today. Their fossilized remains are everywhere in Florida", says Searle.
On both Saturday and Sunday there will be free workshops to teach folks how they can legally hunt for fossils in Florida and how to identify and preserve what they find.
A highlight of FossilFest is the children's Fossil Mine at Paleo Park. For a small fee kids can dig through a sand pit to recover actual prehistoric fossils donated by members of the Tampa Bay Fossil Club. Then, at the "Learning Table," they sit down with a club member who will identify and explain their new treasures. The children keep all the fossils they find!
"So many people these days are hooked on the Discovery and History Channels, and now these treasure hunting shows. That's what we're all about," says Dr. Bob Sinibaldi, a former Pinellas County "Teacher of the Year" winner. "FossilFest will appeal to anyone who enjoys documentary TV, loves science and nature, or has an interest in history and outdoor adventure", says Sinibald The Tampa Bay Fossil Club is a family-oriented organization focusing on paleontology, archaeology, and everything prehistoric. Meetings are held monthly at the University of South Florida's Tampa campus and features prominent speakers from many areas of science. The Tampa Bay Fossil Club awards annual scholarships to students studying in the field of paleontology and geology. The 31-year-old club hosts numerous field trips, camp outs, gatherings, and adventures throughout its September through May season.
Admission: $8.00 for adults, children 12 and under admitted free.
Members of the media can take a "sneak peek" of FossilFest on Friday evening, March 9th. Interview and photographic opportunities can be arranged with fossil hunters of all ages, from all over Florida.

Free Press delivery driver wins new set of teeth
Dave Burt will get free dentures as part of Lake City Denture Clinic's Smiles for Christmas campaign
Patrick Davies
All Dave Burt wanted for Christmas was a full set of teeth.
And thanks to Lake City Denture Clinic's Smiles for Christmas campaign, he will get his wish. Burt was one of two people, in 100 Mile and Williams Lake, recently chosen for a free set of dentures.
"I said to the girl when I won, I've never won anything in my life but I guess teeth are as good as anything," said Burt, 54, who delivers newspapers for the 100 Mile Free Press. "I think it's a great thing they're doing. I think there are lots of people out there who suffer from dental problems because they can't afford to go to the dentist, so kudos to them – do it again, please."
Lake City Denture owner and denturist Roy Jaroudi started his Smiles for Christmas Campaign in 2020 after meeting a lot of people in the community who can't afford dental or denture work. Burt's dentures, for instance, usually cost $3,500. Jaroudi said he decided to expand the Smiles campaign to select a nominated patient from 100 Mile House as well as Williams Lake, after recently opening a satellite office in the South Cariboo.
Burt's treatment will start Jan. 7 with a completion date set for the beginning of February.
"I figured it'd be a nice thing to give back to the community," Jaroudi said. "In my line of work it's my job to help people and I wish I could just do this for everybody in need."
Burt is excited about getting his dentures, especially because he is down to his last "two and three quarters" of teeth.
As a former miner who used to mine gold and nickel in Ontario, Manitoba and Saskatchewan, Burt had a good dental plan for many years. When his teeth began to decay, he had several pulled in preparation to get a set of dentures before finding out his plan "didn't cover putting the teeth back in."
He admits he never really took care of his teeth, noting when he was a child his grandfather told him he hadn't seen a toothbrush until he joined the army in WWII.
"His teeth looked great. It wasn't until I got a bit older that I figured out what false teeth were and that he had false teeth. I followed him, if grampy doesn't brush his teeth neither do I."
After he left mining, Burt largely "let his teeth go."
"That's where I feel a little guilty about this. My oral health, it's not been good. You get toothaches, then you don't feel right or eat right," Burt said. "I smoke too so that's on me. If I'd wanted teeth over the cigarettes I probably could have given up smoking and had teeth."
Burt said he can't wait to have his new teeth so he can start cracking peanuts again – something he hasn't been able to eat for a decade.
"I'll be able to eat and digest my food better, I'll be healthier overall," he said, saying he was shocked that he won. "I feel really grateful that anybody would think of that for me."

Is possible upgrade laravel framework to LTS verison 5.5?
Hello, we plan to migrate to newer Laravel soon.
I think this must be top priority. Laravel users always want to use latest version, that's one of Laravel features, the use of latest tools.
It is already a problem that Microweber is not a component, it is a whole Laravel install with non standard folders. That will stop some users from using Microweber. It's sad, because the designer is good, but the rest is not Laravel standard.
I mean, i appretiate that you release it as open source, but if you want some success with Microweber, you should consider my recommendations.

The fastest quantum computer bit that exploits the main advantage of the qubit over the conventional bit has been demonstrated by researchers at University of Michigan, U.S. Naval Research Laboratory and the University of California at San Diego.
The scientists used lasers to create an initialized quantum state of this solid-state qubit at rates of about a gigahertz, or a billion times per second. They can also use lasers to achieve fundamental steps toward programming it.
A conventional bit can be a 0 or a 1. A quantum bit, or qubit, can be both at the same time. Until now, scientists couldn't stabilize that duality.
Physics professor Duncan Steel, doctoral student Xiaodong Xu and their colleagues used lasers to coherently, or stably, trap the spin of one electron confined in a single semiconductor quantum dot. A quantum dot is like a transistor in a conventional computer.
The scientists trapped the spin in a dark state in which they can arbitrarily adjust the amount of 0 and 1 the qubit represents. They call this state "dark" because it does not absorb light. Therefore, light does not cause loss of coherence between the two states. In other words, the light does not destabilize the qubit. A paper on these findings will be published in Nature Physics and is available early in the online edition.
"We are the first to show that you can do this to a single electron in a self-assembled quantum dot," Steel said. "If you're going to do quantum computing, you have to be able to work with one electron at a time."
Spin is an intrinsic property of the electron that isn't a real rotation. Steel compares it to the magnetic poles. Electrons are said to have spin up or down. In quantum computing, the up and down directions represent the 0s and 1s of conventional computing.
Steel's approach to developing a quantum computer is to use ultrafast lasers to manipulate arrays of semiconductor quantum dots, each containing one electron. Quantum logic gates are formed by quantum mechanical interactions between the dots.
Previously in Steel's lab, researchers have used a laser to produce an electron in a state representative of a 1 or a 0 and a small amount of the other state. Now, using two laser frequencies, they have trapped it as a 0 and a 1 at the same time, and they can adjust the amount of each.
Because the electron is trapped in a dark state, applied light can't destroy the coherence. Energy from light can flip the spin of electrons, or quantum bits, which would jumble any information being stored in the bit.
"This dark state is a place where information can be stored without any error," Steel said.
Because of their ability to represent multiple states simultaneously, quantum computers could theoretically factor numbers dramatically faster and with smaller computers than conventional computers. For this reason, they could vastly improve computer security.
"The National Security Agency has said that based on our present technology, we have about a 20-year window of security," Steel said. "That means if we sent up a satellite today, it would take somebody about 20 years to crack the code. Quantum computers will let you develop a code that would be impossible to crack with a conventional computer."
Physicists achieved this by using two continuous wave lasers.
Steel is the Robert J. Hiller Professor of Engineering in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science as well as a professor in the Physics Department. Xu, a doctoral student in Physics, is first author of the Nature Physics paper. Steel is also an author. The principal investigators include Dan Gammon of the Naval Research Laboratory and physics professor Lu Jeu Sham at the University of California at San Diego.
The paper is called "Coherent Population Trapping of an Electron Spin in a Single Negatively Charged Quantum Dot." It is available online at http://www.nature.com/nphys/journal/vaop/ncurrent/full/nphys1054.html.
The University of Michigan College of Engineering is ranked among the top engineering schools in the country. At more than $130 million annually, its engineering research budget is one of the largest of any public university. Michigan Engineering is home to 11 academic departments and a National Science Foundation Engineering Research Center. The college plays a leading role in the Michigan Memorial Phoenix Energy Institute and hosts the world class Lurie Nanofabrication Facility. Find out more at http://www.engin.umich.edu/.

Tulis McCall
(Review by Tulis McCall)
I am not a Judy Garland groupie. And bio dramas rarely work for me. But I am still thinking about this one.
Tracie Bennett has managed to capture the breadth and depth of the wild arc of the pendulum that was Judy Garland. And of course there is the music and the singing, which is not an imitation or an impersonation but rather an homage. Garland was a force of nature, and Bennet has tapped into her brittle and vibrant core.
This short story takes place just months before Garland died in London from an overdose of drugs. She was 47, an age that is a fading memory for many of us. She was in London getting ready for a comeback, complete with a former accompanist, Anthony (Michael Cumpsty) and her soon to be fifth husband, Mickey Deans (Tom Pelphrey). Judy is, in the words of the author, optimistic and playful. She is also on the wagon, off of which she will soon tumble. She still has enough bravado in her tank to complain that the suite is too small and to decide that management doesn't need to be paid in a hurry. Thus the story is set and Judy is now in the push-me-pull-you grips of these two men as well as her public as well as the Devil on her shoulder. There is a sort of plot here that is only mildly laced with the references no one needs to hear, not us who know the story so well, and not the two men who are serving her. Instead we see her actually working, rehearsing with Anthony, performing at The Talk of the Town and giving an interview that she mangles. There is the opening night where she escapes their grasps and heads out on the town for a bender. There is the obligatory fight with Mickey. And we are off on a downward spiral.
But Garland does not go gentle into that good night. She brings humor and denial and hope all in one basket. She swings from point to point and fights until the very end. This is a woman who wants to live but has lost any notion of control.
Garland's music is woven in and out of the story as both performance and reaction. The segues are seamless as the set opens and closes on the six person orchestra tucked in the back (and what a pleasure to listen to!). Cumpsty is the glue for much of this both in character and performance. Without him Bennett would have nothing against which she could fling herself. Whether by deliberate biographic choice or not, Pelphrey does not seem to stand up to her as much as he endures her.
This is a bleak and penetrating production - a sad commentary on a woman who refused to give up until she snuffed out her own candle. Bennett, too, gives it every ounce of energy she has, and in the end you may be exhausted. But not too exhausted to forget the tale.
(Tulis McCall)
"Tracie Bennett's ... is sensational — in every sense of the word."
Charles Isherwood for NY Times
"The story regularly shifts to the club and Judy belts hits like "Get Happy," "Just in Time," "You Made Me Love You" and "The Trolley Song." These are the moments when 'Rainbow' beams brightest."
Joe Dziemianowicz for NY Daily News
"Tracie Bennett's tour de force ... You can't stop watching."
Elisabeth Vincentelli for New York Post
"It's theatrical magic. ... Rush to ...catch Bennett and revel in her—and Garland's—glory."
David Sheward for Back Stage
"It's what you might expect from a drag cabaret performer, though it lacks the subtlety."
Robert Feldberg for The Record
"It's trash. Judy swills, Judy sings, Judy vomits, Judy goes on singing."
Michael Sommers for Newsroom Jersey
"There's something distancing about this whole macabre sideshow."
David Rooney for The Hollywood Reporter
"Bennett certainly acts the hell out of this hellish role."
Steven Suskin for Variety

'The Price Is Right: The Bob Barker Era': Fremantle & Pluto TV Launch Channel Dedicated To Game Show's Heyday
Alexandra Del Rosario
November 30, 2020, 10:16 p.m. ·2 min read
Today's audience can experience Bob Barker in all his The Price Is Right hosting glory with Fremantle and Pluto TV's new channel. On Monday Pluto TV and Fremantle's Buzzr announced that the services would team to launch The Price Is Right: The Barker Era, a new channel aimed at highlighting the beloved game show's heyday in the 1980s and celebrating Barker's hosting skills.
"The Price is Right is classic feel-good TV and a part of television history with beloved host Bob Barker at the helm," said Amy Kuessner, SVP of Content Strategy and Global Partnerships at Pluto TV. "These iconic game shows have not been televised in 40 years, and Pluto TV is thrilled to be the exclusive home of these classics, as they bring our viewers back in time to a treasured era of television."
Starting Tuesday Dec. 1, The Price Is Right: The Barker Era will provide Pluto TV users with 24/7 broadcasts of the guessing game show. While the channel will feature fan-favorite episodes that have already made their rounds in TV through the years, it will also air gems that have not been on television since their original air dates nearly 40 years ago. Heading into the holiday season, the new Pluto TV channel will also feature festive episodes set to air on Christmas Eve.
Barker hosted the show from 1972 to 2007, gaining 17 Emmy Awards along the way. In 1999 Barker received the Emmy Award for Lifetime Achievement. The Price Is Right, itself, received a total of 43 Emmy Awards.
"Bringing the most cherished era in The Price Is Right history back to television is sure to be a dream come true for all game show fans," said BUZZR General Manager, Mark Deetjen. "The golden age of game shows was a time when families would come together to watch this fun and engaging genre of television from the comfort of their living rooms. Pluto TV's mission to offer accessible entertainment to homes across America harnesses this very same spirit and we couldn't think of a more perfect partner to help us reintroduce this iconic content."
Episodes included in The Price Is Right: The Barker Era are part of Fremantle's vast portfolio of game show content.

Michelle Obama and Kamala Harris choose to wear same black designer for inauguration
NEW YORK — U.S. stocks are rallying to records Wednesday on encouraging earnings reports and continued optimism that new leadership in Washington will mean more support for the struggling economy. The S&P 500 was 1.3% higher at 3,848 in afternoon trading, topping its record closing level of 3,824.68 set earlier this month. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was up 226 points, or 0.7%, at 31,157 as of 12:44 p.m. Eastern time, and the Nasdaq composite was 1.8% higher. Joe Biden took the oath of office to become U.S. president, and he has a flurry of executive actions at the ready. He has also pitched a plan to pump $1.9 trillion more into the struggling economy, hoping to act quickly as his Democratic party takes control of the White House and both houses of Congress. The hope on Wall Street is that such stimulus will help carry the economy until later this year, when more widespread COVID-19 vaccinations get daily life closer to normal. Such hopes have helped stocks and Treasury yields rise, even as the worsening pandemic digs a deeper hole for the economy. Spiraling coronavirus counts and deaths have more workers applying for unemployment benefits and shoppers feeling less confident. The incoming Biden administration is taking control of the White House from Donald Trump, who pointed again on Wednesday to the stock market's level as validation of his work. Trump's preferred measure is often the Dow Jones Industrial Average, even though the S&P 500 is much more important to most workers' 401(k) accounts. Under Trump, the Dow had an a annualized return of 11.8% from his inauguration until his last day in office, according to Ryan Detrick, chief market strategist for LPL Financial. That's better than any Republican president since Calvin Coolidge during the roaring 1920s, but it's not as good as the returns for Bill Clinton or Barack Obama. Trump has said in the past that he should get credit for the stock market's gains following his election but before his inauguration. The market got a "Trump bump" then on anticipation of lower tax rates, less regulation on companies and faster economic growth. Much of that did come to fruition, but the COVID-19 pandemic and the government's response to it upended everything in 2020. Gains for stocks have also been accelerating since Biden's election, before his inauguration, on enthusiasm about COVID-19 vaccines and hopes that he and Congress can deliver more stimulus for the economy. The bump for stocks between the most recent Election Day and Biden's inauguration is bigger than Trump's bump before his inauguration. Janet Yellen, Biden's nominee to be Treasury secretary, told the Senate Finance Committee during her confirmation hearing on Tuesday that the incoming administration would focus on winning quick passage of its $1.9 trillion plan. "More must be done," Yellen said. "Without further action, we risk a longer, more painful recession now — and long-term scarring of the economy later." A better-than-expected start to earnings reporting season is also helping to lift the market Wednesday. Analysts came in with low expectations, forecasting the big companies in the S&P 500 will report a fourth straight drop in earnings per share because of the damage from the pandemic. But the vast majority of the earliest reports have managed to top forecasts. Analysts have been expressing concerns about pricey stock values heading into the latest round of corporate earnings, but they look more reasonable amid the backdrop of historically low interest rates, said Solita Marcelli, chief investment officer, Americas, at UBS Global Wealth Management. The low rates, along with new stimulus and the continued rollout of vaccines, will likely help bolster markets and the recovery. "We see more upside in equities in general," she said. "We think that global growth is going to continue to pick up." Netflix jumped 15.9% for one of the market's biggest gains after it said it ended last year with more than 200 million subscribers. It also said it made more in revenue during the end of 2020 than analysts expected, though its earnings fell short of forecasts. Business is good enough for the company that it says it likely doesn't need to borrow anymore to cover its day-to-day operations. Morgan Stanley initially rose after reporting much stronger earnings for the latest quarter than Wall Street had forecast, though its gain sputtered as the day progressed. It was down 0.3%. A boom in young companies selling their stock for the first time helped Morgan Stanley get more business, and it booked more revenue from trading. Companies will need to meet the market's expectations — including for a huge rebound in profit growth through 2021 — to validate the big runs for their stock prices during 2020, even as their profits plummeted. Stocks of several companies slipped on Wednesday, even though they reported stronger profits than expected. Procter & Gamble fell 1%, for example. The yield on the 10-year Treasury rose to 1.10% from 1.07% late Tuesday. In European stock markets, the German DAX returned 0.8%, and the French CAC 40 rose 0.5%. The FTSE 100 added 0.4% in London. In Asia, Japan's Nikkei 225 slipped 0.4%. Main urban areas in Japan, including Tokyo, are under a state of emergency, with evening dining at restaurants discouraged. Critics say that's not enough, as deaths related to COVID-19 have been rising. A vaccine rollout has not begun in Japan. Other Asian markets were stronger. South Korea's Kospi rose 0.7%, Hong Kong's Hang Seng gained 1.1% and stocks in Shanghai rose 0.5%. ___ AP Business Writer Yuri Kageyama contributed. Stan Choe And Damian J.

Improve working conditions in long-term care homes, COVID-19 advisory group urges
A group of health experts advising Ontario on COVID-19 says the province should improve working conditions and minimize temporary staffing in long-term care homes to protect residents from the virus. In a new report, the group says infections and deaths among long-term care residents are speeding up, mirroring the spread in the community at large. The report says there's a strong association between community spread and long-term care outbreaks, suggesting staff are bringing the virus into the facilities before showing symptoms. The report says temporary staffing is also a risk factor, and suggests that the province make temporary measures such as pay increases and training programs permanent in an effort to retain workers. The document also recommends extending a prohibition on three- and four-bed rooms beyond the end of this month. A spokeswoman for Long-Term Care Minister Merrilee Fullerton did not immediately respond to a request for comment. This report by The Canadian Press was first published Jan. 20, 2021.

Aurora Cannabis lays off workers after signing new sales broker deal
EDMONTON — Aurora Cannabis Inc. says it has laid off some workers after signing an agreement with an external sales broker. The Edmonton-based cannabis company's spokeswoman Michelle Lefler confirmed the cuts but wouldn't disclose the number of staff impacted or what cities they were located in. Lefler says the move was prompted by Aurora's recent decision to hire Great North Distributors Inc. to represent the pot company in sales activities across Canada. She says the agreement had an immediate impact on some jobs, while other employees will remain with the company for a set time. Despite the layoff, Lefler says Aurora will keep a sales leadership team to work closely with provincial partners and other key stakeholders. Aurora laid off almost 1,000 workers last year after it closed some of its facilities to streamline its operations. This report by The Canadian Press was first published Jan. 20, 2021.

I was basically inquiring about a Baker`s cyst because I was just diagnosed today with one. The pain comes and goes and I`ve had it for maybe 1 or 1 1/2 years. My orthopedic told me to get an MRI and bring back the results to him. He said surgery may be necessary. I just wanted to make sure this was benign. This isn`t cancerous, is it? Please let me know; I`m very concerned as I have 3 young boys to live for!! Thank you!
Baker`s cysts are not cancerous or precancerous lesions. They are outpouchings of the joint lining of the knee. They can usually be surgically corrected. Don`t worry, this isn`t a life threatening problem, but you may have some surgery ahead of you to correct your pain.

More and more clients not only want to realise their sustainable construction project, but also have it certified. Ingenium has in-house experts for all current sustainability labels - such as BREEAM and WELL.
From the start of a project, we sit down with the construction team. The various parameters or credits of the chosen sustainability meter are weighed up according to the client's wishes and expectations. As the project progresses, we follow it up (studies, correct site execution, documentation of the measures). At the end of the process, a report is drawn up after which the certificate is issued.
With some 70 parameters or credits in 10 categories, BREEAM focuses mainly on the sustainability of buildings. Obvious topics, such as energy, waste, water use and mobility, are supplemented by, among other things, sustainable management practices and the use of sustainable materials. Ingenium employs not only BREEAM assessors - who assist clients from start to finish in obtaining a BREEAM label - but also a BREEAM AP (accredited professional), who monitors and evaluates assessors.
WELL is a recent label of the International WELL Building Institute which, with 7 core themes, focuses mainly on the health, comfort and well-being of the users of a building. Ingenium also has an in-house accredited assessor for WELL.
Other sustainability indicators that we use are GRO - a new label for the valuation of office buildings - and TOTEM. The latter is a new tool from the Flemish government to compare the environmental impact of different building systems. In this way, we cannot only correctly estimate the direct but also the indirect environmental cost. This fits in perfectly with the life cycle analysis (TCO), which, for Ingenium, is a matter of course for every construction project.
Ingenium also makes its experience and expertise available to authorities and builders who want to create their own sustainability meter. This can be used as an extra evaluation tool during tenders or competitions.

A symphony of bee and man
The band BE was formed as a collaboration between artist Wolfgang Buttress, musicians-Tony Foster, Kev Bales, Deirdre Bencsik, Camille Christel, scientist Dr. Martin Bencsik and 40,000 honey bees. Collectively they created a soundscape for the multi award-wining sculpture known as 'The Hive' that was the centrepiece of the UK Pavilion at Milan Expo 2015 and is now sited at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, London, U.K. The Hive highlights the decline of the world's bee population by focusing attention on the importance of pollination for food production. The soundscape was released as 'One' on Caught by the River's innovative record label Rivertones.
The initial recording session with cellist Deirdre Bencsik and vocalist Camille Christel was held on 12th February 2015 in Nottingham. A live feed of beehive sounds was played, while the musicians improvised to accompany this in the key of C. These recordings formed the basis for the album One.
At the heart of all the music is the sound of the bees, the hive drone and specific bee communications captured by Dr. Bencsik. The idea is that the musicians collaborate with the bees - it seems that they lead the way and the musicians let the music form naturally around them to create a symphony of bee and man.

THE GUARDIANS BEST GIGS OF 2016 - BE PLAY LIVE IN THE HIVE
When I first heard that a couple of members of Spiritualized had teamed up with a Nottingham-based artist called Wolfgang Buttress, his teenage daughter and 40,000 bees to make a drone album I had many thoughts: "how?", "why?" and "er, that's pretty damn weird". One of the thoughts I didn't have was, "That sounds like it will lend itself particularly well to the live environment." But then the Be project has a habit of messing with your preconceptions. As I listened to the album One over the course of this year, I realised that this was more than just some wacky art project. Not only did it sound sublime – meditative and restorative – but it acted as a powerful comment on the natural world, and the responsibilities of human beings within that. Anyone who's met Buttress will swiftly realise that he's not one for doing things by halves. Earlier this year, he reconstructed the gigantic metal beehive originally displayed at the 2015 Milan Expo within Kew Gardens. His next move was to stage a concert of One there – with the band playing in the base of the Hive, while attendees were free to roam around it, or simply lie back on the floor and drift away as the music combined with a spectacular light show (generated, remarkably, by the activity of a hive of bees based over a hundred miles away). It was an astonishing show, not least because Kew Gardens is based under Heathrow's flight path: the roar of passing engines was submerged into the drone rather well, but they did act as a stark reminder as to what we're doing to the earth's atmosphere. While everything else showed us just what we have to lose.
Tim Jonze, The Guardian
"there was no other record like BE's One this year"
'BLUE LULLABY' THE NEW SINGLE FROM BE
Following the success of the critically acclaimed debut album 'One', the new single 'Blue Lullaby' by BE is now available on the Rivertones record label and is available on the Caught by the River website. 'Blue Lullaby' incorporates previously unheard vibrational signals from the European honey bee, These signals are derived from fellow collaborator Dr. Martin Bencsik's ground breaking research into how bees communicate. The haunting signals you can hear within the track are believed to be female worker bees 'talking' to the unborn larvae to guide them in their future roles within the beehive.
This new musical composition takes the listener on a reflective journey, making connections to the changing seasons of life and man's relationship with nature. The music is both melancholic and uplifting. The honey bee is in crisis; we as man are responsible – but hope is suggested. Referencing the sixteenth century Coventry Carol both musically and lyrically, it is a seasonal song evoking a communal atmosphere.

GIS & the Global Community: Humanitarian Mapping
KLL team outside their new headquarters. Photo courtesy Kathmandu Living Labs.
Today, November 18, marks the 16th annual GIS Day. Throughout the week, Geothink has been presenting a series of posts looking at some of the ways in which our collaborators, partners, and friends around the world are critically examining and using GIS as a tool for civic engagement and understanding.
The community snapshots presented this week highlight diverse perspectives and uses for GIS. We conclude our series with the following piece on humanitarian mapping and OpenStreetMap.
This past March, Nama Budhathoki, a long-time contributor to OpenStreetMap, announced his candidacy for the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) Board of Directors. Budhathoki, the executive director of Nepal's Kathmandu Living Labs (KLL), posted a manifesto that — in the months following Nepal's April 25 earthquake — seemed beyond prescient. In it, he proposed his vision for HOT, and for the crowdsourced mapping community around the world.
Budhathoki's principal message is two-fold. 1) Humanitarian mapping can be more effective by transitioning from being primarily a reactive community to one that encourages mapping communities to develop where they're most needed — before crisis strikes. 2) A unique benefit of crowdsourced mapping stems from its role in community engagement and capacity building.
OpenStreetMap's U.S. Chapter is a Geothink partner. Geothink recently caught up with Budhathoki while he was visiting Washington D.C. as the invited featured speaker at the launch of Mapping for Resilience: Turning Data into Decisions, a new program that aims to support geospatial data development in areas of need using OpenStreetMap.
KLL's Mapping Schools and Hospitals project
Mapping as civic engagement
The challenge that KLL has been addressing for several years now in Kathmandu is the lack of decent spatial data and maps for the region. The small team has been tackling the problem by collaborating with educational institutions in Nepal, training students how to map their local environment in OpenStreetMap. In 2013, for example, they went out into the field to collect exposure data at the individual building level for over 2,000 schools, colleges and universities, as well as 350 health facilities in Kathmandu Valley. They mapped this data on OpenStreetMap so that the information could be downloaded and used by government and other organizations developing risk assessments and plans.
For Budhathoki, the act of mapping is a mechanism for engaging citizens and building local knowledge and awareness. "I keep emphasizing this, but I can't stress it enough. Mapping is not just about the final product — you know, the map itself. The act of mapping is important; it's about engaging the community," Budhathoki said. "In the process of conducting these activities, you are talking to people in the community, sensitizing them to the issues, preparing them in advance to think about it."
Budhathoki notes that one of the most important reasons to have active, capable mapping communities on the ground in high-risk regions is so that they can build trust within their communities before disaster strikes. "KLL has been working with the government, working with organizations in the community, and with different aid organizations for several years," Budhathoki said. "So when the earthquake hit, we not only had the local knowledge and the capacity so that we could open the situation room within 24 hours of the earthquake, but we also had the trust of all these organizations. In my experience, this element of trust is very important."
Mobilizing the global community
Within 48 hours following the first earthquake, over 1,500 mappers around the world had responded to the call to support Nepal. Kathmandu Living Labs coordinated the effort together with HOT. This October, KLL posted a timeline capturing the milestones of their six-month journey since April.
As is typically the case on crowdsourced projects, while some contributors signed on only briefly, other mappers dedicated themselves to the cause. These core mappers, Budhathoki believes, tended to be those with a longer history on OSM and HOT projects, because they typically have a better understanding of the types of commitments and challenges involved.
"In principle, because OSM is a crowdsourcing geo platform, it is by definition designed to have a low barrier to entry," Budhathoki explained. "Anyone should be able to begin mapping. That's in principle. But in reality, there are tasks that require more knowledge. So for example, users with more OpenStreetMap experience handle validation tasks.
"GIS experts anywhere in the world should be able to adapt to the OpenStreetMap environment even if it is new for them. For GIS experts, OSM is a pretty simple tool, generally. They can contribute expertise that is useful, that contributes to quality of the information. But not everyone is comfortable in a crowdsourced environment."
Where local meets global
Geothink co-applicant Claus Rinner, a professor and chair of Ryerson University's Department of Geography and Environmental Studies, coordinated several Mapping for Nepal workshops in Toronto after the first quake struck. Rinner worked with a group of students with varying degrees of mapping experience as well as local GIS professionals to help map the affected areas. Following his experiences, he posted some reflections regarding the current slippery boundaries between traditional GIS and OpenStreetMap as a crowdsourced mapping platform — and highlighted the need for more formal education opportunities that incorporate OSM as a tool. More recently, Rinner noted that high school students have been expressing an interest in Ryerson's mapping events for Nepal. "My main observation here is that OSM/HOT mapping is a type of community activity that uses the students' study-related expertise," Rinner said, "rather than being something that anyone could do."
Budhathoki sees the work of the global OSM community as valuable on a number of levels, but also highlights the importance of local knowledge. "Virtual mappers without advanced knowledge can do fundamental tasks like mapping the road network," Budhathoki said, "but then who can provide the name of the road? It's the local community. And different countries categorize roads differently, so it is difficult to know what road is a highway, for example. You can't just assume this based on the width of the road.
"So, local understanding is always going to be important — particularly in these situations, where the information is needed by humanitarian organizations and is being used on the ground right away."

Kourtney and Kim Kardashian can't steal all the spotlight!
While older sister Kourtney has been showing off her expanding baby bump and younger sis Kim is hogging attention with her bikini body and endless hairstyles, Khloe Kardashian has found love.
The star of E!'s "Kourtney & Khloe Take Miami" is dating Los Angeles Lakers forward Lamar Odom, Hollyscoop.com reports.
The new couple, who "instantly hit it off" when they first met August 27th at the Ron Artest party at Hollywood hotspot Halo, didn't hide their affection for each other when they partied at West Hollywood's Guys and Dolls on Thursday.
"He was holding her hand and every time a good song came on, she would pull him up to dance and steal kisses here and there," a source told Usmagazine.com. "There is no denying the chemistry between those two."
And luckily for Odom, the Kardashian family approves of the reality star's new beau.
"They're very, very happy," sister Kim told People.com. "They've been together a few weeks, and are literally inseparable. Khloe thinks he's amazing and makes her laugh and smile constantly."
The same could be said about Kardashian, 25, who Odom says is "smart and beautiful and that is very hard to find."
Odom, 29, just signed a four-year, $33 million contract with the Lakers and helped them win the NBA Championship in June.

Q: Having two sequential steps running within a windows service I have a requirement which currently I am doing within two separate windows service. First one, makes a REST api call and writes to db and keeps doing so every 30 sec by putting it through a thread.sleep. Another windows service queries the db for the retrieved records from the REST call and processes them and this one also keeps doing so every 30 sec by putting through a thread.sleep. How can I efficiently brings these two logic together into a single windows service taking into consideration, all the possible scenarios that could go wrong like REST call could fail, or write to db could fail or record processing logic could fail. I am still a newbie with async. I tried making the first windows service async call a WPF service but did not have much luck with it.
How do I proceed?

Lack of coordination is a motor-skill impairment, characterised by uncoordinated movement that may affect walking, speech, ability to swallow, eye movements, and other usually voluntary movements. The medical term for this condition is ataxia.
When you abuse drugs, the drugs impair your motor functions and disrupt your daily life. Every movement you make involves the use of a particular group of muscles. The cerebellum is a cardinal part of the brain that controls these muscle groups. Lack of coordination occurs when the communication between the brain and other parts of the body is broken. One of the things that can cause this break in communication is the chemicals found in drugs that are commonly abused.
A person with impaired coordination has to put a tremendous amount of thought or effort into simple things like buttoning up their shirt, writing, throwing a ball, or walking. Drugs and other substances with toxic effects that can lead to uncoordinated movements include alcohol, cocaine, heroin, seizure medications, lithium, chemotherapy drugs, sedatives, solvents, and heavy metals like lead and mercury. Alcohol is the number one substance that can cause permanent damage to the cerebellum, especially when it is excessively consumed for a long period of time.
Slurred speech: It becomes difficult for people to understand what you're saying.
Tremors: Unintentional movement in certain body parts.
Poor coordination: Jerky and unsteady movements.
Clumsiness: You bump into objects and drop things a lot.
Dizziness: Everything around you seems to be spinning, making you feel giddy.
Difficulty swallowing: Often, when you try to swallow, you start coughing or choking.
Facial expressions become less clear or noticeable.
Rapid and repetitive eye movement that may be horizontal, vertical, or circular.
When these symptoms manifest, they can result in depression, due to the difficulty that comes with living with them. You will make matters worse for yourself if you try to fight this depression by taking more drugs. While your depressed mood might disappear when you are intoxicated on drugs, your lack of coordination will worsen.
When to See a Professional for Lack of Coordination?
The symptoms of ataxia are sometimes similar to a stroke. Once these symptoms appear, you should seek medical attention immediately. To make a diagnosis, your doctor will have to examine the overall picture of your symptoms, and the results of your urine tests, blood tests, genetic tests, CT scan, MRI scan and spinal tap. For your own good, submit yourself willingly to the required tests.
The cause of your coordination disorder will have to be treated for you to be fully cured. Alcohol, or any other drugs that are causing the issue, must be stopped.
