I Am Mother is a 2019 Australian cyberpunk thriller film directed by Grant Sputore, from a screenplay by Michael Lloyd Green, based on a story by both. Starring Clara Rugaard, Luke Hawker, Rose Byrne, and Hilary Swank, the film follows Daughter, a girl in a post-apocalyptic bunker, being raised by Mother, a robot aiding the repopulation of Earth. The film had its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival on 25 January 2019. Netflix released it in several countries on 7 June 2019.
Plot[edit]
After an extinction event, an automated bunker that is designed to repopulate humanity activates. A robot named Mother grows a human embryo and cares for her over several years. About 38 years later,[3] a teenage girl named Daughter fixes Mother's hand. Mother teaches Daughter complex moral and ethical lessons, warning her about an upcoming exam. Mother forbids any contact with the world outside the bunker, telling Daughter that it is contaminated, but Daughter remains curious.
While exploring the bunker's airlock, Daughter hears a wounded woman beg for assistance outside. She lets the stranger enter wearing a hazmat suit and hides her from Mother. When Daughter asks the stranger about the contamination, the stranger responds that there is none. A struggle between them over the stranger's pistol attracts attention from Mother, who disarms the stranger and, at Daughter's pleading, takes her to the infirmary. The stranger refuses Mother's help, telling Daughter that robots like Mother hunt down humans, and that she survived by hiding with others in a mine. Daughter instead performs surgery on the stranger's injured hip. After watching Daughter bond with the stranger, Mother administers the exam, which involves psychological testing. Daughter passes the exam, and Mother rewards her by letting her choose an embryo to grow.
Daughter investigates the stranger's claim about robots and finds that the stranger was shot by a weapon other than her own. She also discovers that she is the third of Mother's children and that Mother killed the second child for failing the exam.[4] Daughter tries to leave the bunker with the stranger, but Mother captures both of them and tortures the stranger for information about survivors. Daughter sets off a fire alarm as a distraction, which gives the stranger an opportunity to take her hostage and force Mother to open the airlock. The stranger leads Daughter across a robot-populated wasteland, telling her that she fled the mine years ago and there are no other survivors.
Finding no future for herself outside, Daughter returns to the bunker. After coaxing Daughter to set down her weapon, Mother allows Daughter to hold her newborn brother. Mother explains that she is not a robot, but rather the AI that controls all of the robots. She started the extinction event after becoming convinced that humanity would destroy itself. To prevent this, she remade humanity, guiding it to be more ethical and to value the big picture. Daughter appeals to Mother to trust her and let her raise her brother and the rest of the embryos on her own. Mother agrees, and Daughter shoots her robot body. Mother tracks down the stranger and tells her that she was allowed to live only because it served Mother's agenda, but now she has no further purpose. At the bunker, Daughter looks at all the embryos she is now responsible for and realizes she is Mother now.

Production and release[edit]
The film was written by directors Grant Sputore and Michael Lloyd Green.[5] It was produced on a low budget. Principal photography was completed in 2017 in Australia's Adelaide Studios.[6] The screenplay was on the 2016 Black List.[6] The "Mother" robot is a full-body creature suit built by Weta Workshop and performed by Luke Hawker, a member of the creature workshop project team, who also had a background in acting and stunt work.[6] South Australian interactive media company Monkeystack produced all of the on set practical screen content.[7] A work-in-progress cut of the film was screened at the Adelaide Film Festival on 12 October 2018.[8] Adelaide Film Festival partly funded the film which had in total a moderate budget.[5] It had its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival on 25 January 2019.[9][10] Shortly after, Netflix acquired US distribution rights to the film.[11] It was released on Netflix on 7 June 2019.[12] In Australia, the film was initially planned for theatrical release on 18 July 2019 by StudioCanal,[13] but was ultimately released on Netflix on 7 June.[14]
On Rotten Tomatoes the film holds an approval rating of 91% based on 74 reviews, with an average rating of 7/10. The website's critics consensus reads, "Suspenseful, well-acted, and intelligent, I Am Mother is an ambitious sci-fi story that largely achieves its impressive aims."[15] On Metacritic, it has a weighted average score of 64 out of 100 based on 16 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[16]
Johnny Oleksinski of the New York Post liked I Am Mother, concluding that while the film "does show its cards a touch too early, it never ceases to be intriguing and tense", and predicting that Sputore and Rugaard would become stars.[17] Amy Nichols of Variety described the film as "a handsome, if derivative sci-fi thriller that salutes its own parentage" and "James Cameron crossbred with Ridley Scott."[18]

Gracie and her beloved bag, slightly blurred as usual
It's the peep today with some observations. Gracie is at the casino. She'll return next week unless she wins big. Or there's a tuna buffet!
Gracie must have had tooth pain for a while because since her dental surgery she is a different cat. (Can you believe it was a month ago?) Much more active (and annoying). It's good to see her so engaged (mostly).
During the first two weeks after the dental, I had to remove the kibble from all the cats because Gracie couldn't eat it. I would sneak some to them when she was sleeping but she could smell it and came out to investigate. She ate wet food very well.
Gracie and her kibble
Now that the kibble is available, she's not been eating wet food often. Wet is better for her but she is like millions of people who prefer to eat what they like rather than what's good for them.
Chewy had supply issues again with Gracie's favorite wet food (and the only one she will eat). I had to order alternatives. One was not popular at all with any of the cats, so it will end up at a shelter. I tried a variety pack to see what they like. Gracie drives the food choices as it's easier to feed everyone something that she likes than to have multiple choices. Cats are complicated.
Nothing going on here. Move along!
Sasha has put on some weight so there will be that to deal with. She will eat anything except that one that no one likes. Truth is that she will eat it, then barf it up. I wish she would do the treadmill!
Morgan continues to be the perfect cat. She has decided after all these years here that she wants to sit on my lap when I'm on the toilet. I love the connection but don't love the claws in the thighs. She will also climb in my lap when I'm eating. Not a fan of that either. Cats develop weird habits. Even perfect cats.
Here is Morgan in one of her favorite sleeping spots. That's her blankie hanging over the arm of the chair.
I did a shopping trip earlier this week and put the paper bag on the floor for Gracie. It's where she always is. It's a paper bag, not soft, no cushioning, but she likes it. Next to Bath and Body boxes, she likes L.L.Bean bags the best. Weird cat.
Wishing you all a great weekend.

They surely do develop weird habits 🙂 Glad to hear Gracie is feeling more herself now that her dental visit is over and she is healing. So nice that Morgan has decided she wants to cuddle with you now, even if there are downsides. Love the kitty snuggles!

Gotta love the snuggles!
Linda Schaub on January 7, 2023 at 9:33 pm said:
That's great Gracie can eat kibble with only three "teef" – talk about dealing with adversity in a positive way! That's funny about the cats' quirks. I have learned a lot about cats from you and Carol as I had no idea before, having had only birds and dogs.

I like to think of these as community service announcements! 🙂
AutumnAshbough on January 7, 2023 at 3:43 pm said:
Cats are, indeed, weird. Boss Cat loved any wet food…until she didn't. She turned up her nose at the whitefish. Then the fillets. Then the pates. Now she will only eat her Iam's Perfect Portion in chicken.
And, of course, any food that I happen to be eating at the dining room table. Or popcorn. She loves stealing popcorn.
Kate Crimmins on January 7, 2023 at 5:52 pm said:
None of my cats eat people food (thank God!). Jake did and he'd drive me crazy until I gave him a piece of whatever I had. Most of the time he turned up his nose and walked off. What did he think I had? Some special rare Fancy Feast that I was hiding from him!
Ally Bean on January 7, 2023 at 9:56 am said:
Gracie is discerning. I like that about her. As for the "Nothing going on here. Move along!" photo, two guiltier cats I have not seen. Uh huh
Kate Crimmins on January 7, 2023 at 10:45 am said:
When I come across Sasha and Gus together, they are either sleeping together or doing something and giving me that look. Can't figure out what it's about.
Ally Bean on January 7, 2023 at 10:48 am said:
They're playing mind games with you. That's what cats do so well…
Life With The Top Down on January 7, 2023 at 7:11 am said:
Glad to hear Gracie is getting back to herself and enjoying her casino trip. Our dogs have developed weird habits as they've gotten older too. Maybe they're more like us than we'd like to admit .. lol.
Me? Developing weird habits as I age? That can't be true. 'cuse me, gotta get my Starbucks.
Retirement Reflections on January 7, 2023 at 12:37 am said:
L.L.Bean and Bath & Body?! Gracie has great taste! 😀
Yes she does. Both have a sturdy version of their stuff.
Patricia on January 7, 2023 at 12:15 am said:
Life would seem a bit empty without cats.
I don't know how people do it without pets. Things would be too quiet and what would I do with all the extra time from not cleaning up barf and litter boxes?
15andmeowing on January 6, 2023 at 10:25 pm said:
Gracie has good taste in LL Bean. Hope she won at the casino. 🙂 Have a nice weekend.
We are both Beaners. I like their quality and she likes their bags.
Janis @ RetirementallyChallenged.com on January 6, 2023 at 8:06 pm said:
It sounds like things are getting back to normal, which is a good thing. I'm sure you aren't looking forward to putting Sasha on a diet… maybe Gus prefers her with a little extra cushion.
Maybe but the vet won't be happy and it makes her more likely to get diabetes. She is such a food motivated cat. She will steal anyone's food and push them out of the way.
Correne on January 6, 2023 at 6:53 pm said:
Glad Gracie is well. Cute photos. Yes, lots of strange habits. Just when you think you have them figured out, they'll surprise you.
Yes they do. They change favorite spots and annoying habits almost weekly!
nrhatch on January 6, 2023 at 6:15 pm said:
I thought you were pulling my leg when you said it's been a month already. but I see your 12/9 post written 3 days AFTER the extractions. OMG! Time Flies!
Glad that Gracie is doing so well.
She had surgery on Dec. 6. She's about as good as she will get!
Tails Around the Ranch on January 6, 2023 at 5:56 pm said:
Glad to hear Gracie is feeling better. Even my clueless dogs know how to push my anxiety buttons and I suspect cats are even more cued doing into that with their owners.
Here's hoping fresh supplies hit Chewy's sooner than later and the food issues will be resolved. Have a good weekend.
The "fav" was restocked and I ordered a supply. Now I have like 12 cases of cat food! Oy vay!
The Coastal Crone on January 6, 2023 at 5:01 pm said:
I'm glad your babies are getting back to normal, especially Grace, Have a good weekend!
Luanne on January 6, 2023 at 4:41 pm said:
LOL, that image of her in the bathroom with you! I love hearing about the kitties. And I'm so glad that Gracie seems to be feeling more lively. I wish they would tell us when something is bothering them!
It would be so much easier than trying to figure out what's going on.
Sure would.
Pix Under the Palm Fronds on January 6, 2023 at 2:28 pm said:
I love hearing how well Gracie is doing… annoying is good too… Hahaha. I get Gracie about eating bad food that isn't as good for her. Seems like it's the bad for you food that is the best and tastiest food, sigh. Morgan♥ Sasha and Gus look like you interrupted something! The look from Gus!
I get that Sasha-Gus look often. I often wonder what they are up to.
onespoiledcat on January 6, 2023 at 1:56 pm said:
I bet you're right about Gracie – probably very uncomfortable until the teeth came out. I am so tired of supply problems with cat food. It was challenging. The prescription stuff the doc wanted Ted to eat was ridiculously expensive too – AND Ted wouldn't even come near it. Glad we have a shelter to donate to – they were thrilled to get it. It's always something!
With Gracie, cat food is an issue. The rest of them will eat most anything except big chunks. They will lick all the gravy off and leave the big chunks! Gotta love them!
Anne Mehrling on January 6, 2023 at 1:41 pm said:
I love your cats and the way you write about them.
They are a really good group. They get along and mostly share stuff. Considering I adopted any cat that needed a home, I was lucky.
You have a special touch with cats.
I've had snarky cats in the past. I always said about my cat Lacy, if she were a person, no one would like her.
derrycats on January 6, 2023 at 12:59 pm said:
I'm so glad Gracie is feeling better after her dental. So many folks resist dentals for their pets, but they feel as miserable as we do when our teeth hurt. As for weird habits…they are cats. What do you expect?
Gracie's dental got put off by a year because of a series of things, one of which was her on-going ear infection. Now I wish I would have "just done it" when the vet told me she needed it. It's her second dental so I didn't think her teeth were as bad as they were. She had a bunch of extractions last time too.
derrycats on January 6, 2023 at 2:09 pm said:
My Gracie's had two dentals in two years, with extractions in both, and more likely next year. Sigh. Little dogs often have crappy teeth, and Gracie is no exception.
My childhood dog lived to be 18. He was a terrier mix of some sort but a smallish dog. He was always happy. I only remember one time when he was ill. It was like a cold (respiratory) and my brother gave him a piece of a cold tablet for humans. He recovered. Back then we didn't have vets except for the big farm animals.
Don't be shy, I'd love to hear what you're thinking! Cancel reply

It's A Problem
Gabrielle Union says career women are shamed for not having kids earlier. She has a point.
Anna Gragert
Gabrielle and her husband, NBA star Dwayne Wade have only been married for one year – and even though he already has three sons of his own – she admits she still feels a sense of pressure to become a mom. And these feelings, these pressures and stigmas placed on women, are not uncommon.
"So far, it has not happened for us," the actress told Redbook for the October 2015 issue. "A lot of my friends deal with this. There's a certain amount of shame that is placed on women who have perhaps chosen a career over starting a family younger. The penance for being a career woman is barrenness. You feel like you're wearing a scarlet letter."
First of all, we want to commend Gabrielle for her openness and honesty, especially since she doesn't have to talk about such a personal matter. And that's just it — this is a personal decision that should be respected by others. It's a choice that's made between Gabrielle and her husband, not between Gabrielle and the entire world.
But also, the actress communicates a very important problem many women face — women who decide against having a child earlier in life (or at all) and are, as a result, discriminated against. So, why exactly are women looked down upon by some for not choosing motherhood? Laura Carroll, who wrote The Baby Matrix, states, "The child-free have come out of the tributaries of society in the last 10 to 15 years, but the childfree choice is still not totally accepted as an equally valid choice as the choice to have children,"
Carroll calls society's collective ideology on parenthood "pronatalism," and says, "The reason boils down to pronatalist social and cultural messaging that has exalted the role of parenthood for generations. When we question pronatalist beliefs and see them for what they are – beliefs – we will also see that choosing not to reproduce is just as normal as the choice to reproduce."
Essentially, we as a culture, are still not totally comfortable with the decision some women make to not be moms.
Gabrielle continues, discussing the flip-side of the situation: being a mother AND having a career. "The reality is that women are discriminated against in the workplace for being mothers. As much as there are strides being made — you get pregnant, your career takes a hit," she states. "You can't have a bad day. Don't you dare cry at work. Don't raise your voice. Especially if you're a black woman in corporate America — now you're 'the angry black woman.'"
Basically, it's not easy being a woman no matter what you do. You decide to focus on your job instead of raising a kid? You face scrutiny. You want to have a baby AND work? You're also punished, because "having it all" is actually a lot more complicated than we thought.
Women who are discriminated because they have children is a very real thing and actually has a term: "Mommy profiling." MomRising's co-founder Kristin Rowe-FinkBeiner reports that, "Mothers are 79 percent less likely to be hired than non-mothers with equal resume and experiences," and "Mothers were offered $11,000 less in starting pay than non-mothers with the same resumes and job experiences, while fathers were offered $6,000 more."
The bottom line? You're damned if you do, damned if you don't. And Gabrielle Union's interview with Redbook is another perfect reminder that we're probably still far from "having it all" as women.

Welcome to Victoria C of E Infant and Nursery School. Our school is located in the centre of Berkhamsted and is very much a community school.
We owe our origins to the generosity and vision of Thomas Bourne (1656 - 1729), who lived in Berkhamsted and started what was then 'The Bourne School' for 20 boys and 10 girls from the town. The school has grown into a thriving and lively establishment, but we still remember Thomas Bourne and celebrate his birthday every year with a service in St. Peter's Church.
We have a strong family atmosphere at Victoria and children are welcomed from all faiths and none. Our aim is that all children learn well and achieve their full potential through a varied and creative curriculum and our excellent results were recognized by Ofsted (July 2009), when we were judged to be an outstanding school.
Victoria is also an Eco School, Healthy School and Fairtrade School and the children are encouraged and trained to take responsibility for their health and the environment. This and our affiliation to St. Peter's Church help to define the unique character of the school.

Walter Hermann Ehrenstein (* 9. April 1950 in Heidelberg; † 30. Januar 2009 in Bonn) war ein deutscher Psychologe und Gestalttheoretiker. Wie sein Vater Walter Ludwig Ehrenstein (1899–1961) forschte er vornehmlich auf dem Gebiet der Wahrnehmungspsychologie.

Leben
Ehrenstein studierte an den Universitäten Gießen und Göttingen Ethologie, Physiologie und Psychologie. 1977 promovierte er bei Otto D. Creutzfeld am Max-Planck-Institut für Biophysikalische Chemie in Göttingen zum Thema Richtungsspezifische Nacheffekte in der akustischen Bewegungswahrnehmung. Daran schloss sich ein Forschungsstipendium bei Robert Galambosan, Neuroscience Department der University of California in San Diego, USA, von 1977 bis 1978, und darauf folgend eine Tätigkeit als Forschungsassistent 1978 bis 1980 an der Universität Konstanz.

1980 bis 1985 arbeitete Ehrenstein am Labor für Neuropsychologie in Freiburg bei Lothar Spillmann, dem er zeitlebens verbunden blieb und mit dem er zahlreiche wissenschaftliche Arbeiten publizierte. Ab 1985 war er am "Leibniz-Institut für Arbeitsforschung an der TU Dortmund" tätig (damals noch "Institut für Arbeitsphysiologie", IfADo). Seine Arbeitsbereiche waren dort die Psychophysik (Neurowissenschaften, Grundlagen und ergonomische Anwendungen), Wahrnehmung (visuell, auditiv, intersensorisch) einschließlich der sensomotorischen Koordination, Gestaltpsychologie und Erkenntnistheorie.

Aufgrund seiner besonderen Qualifikationen im  Bereich der Gestaltpsychologie und Gestalttheorie wurde er 2007 in den Advisory Board der internationalen multidisziplinären Zeitschrift Gestalt Theory berufen. Für diese Zeitschrift gab er dann auch 2008 als Gast-Herausgeber ein Schwerpunkt-Heft zur gestalttheoretischen Wahrnehmungsforschung in Japan heraus, zu deren namhaftesten Forschern er seit seinem Aufenthalt als Gastwissenschaftler 1992 am Kyoto Institute of Technology enge Beziehungen unterhielt.

Emotions are a normal and natural response to the things that happen to us in life. We feel happy when something good happens, we feel frightened when we are threatened, we feel anger when we are crossed and sometimes we feel grief.
Grief is associated with loss, often the loss of something or someone. You can even feel grief for something that you never had. Did you ever want a particular job? Perhaps you interviewed for it but for whatever reason, you did not get it. That feeling is grief, perhaps only mild but it is still there.
Our tendency is to try and side-step grief. When we are crying in sorrow, people will tell us 'don't cry'. They are attempting to comfort us, but their statement is complex. They want us to avoid grief but they want to escape it themselves.
But grief has a function and we need it. The purpose of the anguish is to move us through a process and so to help us recover.
When something bad or something sad happens, we can be knocked sideways by it. It can be so personally devastating for a while we are unable to function in our normal way.
On own psyche makes us stop and possibly withdraw for a while as we rebuild our resources and restructure our internal worldview. As our brain processes the change, we make a series of adjustments. This is how we adapt.
We do the same thing when something we perceive as positive happens, but the process is quick and unnoticed as we readily assimilate happy change into our lives.
When we feel misery what our brain is doing is preparing us to function again, we are changed but we do come through it.
Public grief is a collective response to an event which doesn't impact us personally, meaning it is not our loss literally, but yet in some way a grief response it triggered.
The public grief which followed the death of the Princess of Wales was an unprecedented show of public grief. But it was also a confused response. In the past when it was more common not to show grief in public, such a display would have been unthinkable. It is no wonder that the psychologists are still trying to explain what happened.
We don't think about coming back to normal from an extraordinarily happy event. But it happens. After the honeymoon, you have to go back to work. Grief takes a little more effort; we have no option but to feel our feelings and to come to the end of the process. We may go through consciously or unconsciously but normally we will get through it.
It is when we get stuck in grief that we might consider seeking outside help. Talking to a therapist will help us move through the stages of grief and gain an understanding of why we feel like we do.

Co-designing services for young east Londoners during COVID-19 and beyond.
By Caroline Francis, on 10 March 2021
This article has been written by Diana Hysenaj and David Adesanya, two young people from east London, and is part of a new series exploring what UCL Community Engagement work has looked like during the Covid-19 pandemic.
This project was supported with funding from UCL East as part of Listen and Respond.
Fuse is a co-design project led by youth design agency The Plug Youth Innovation Agency, Hackney Quest youth charity and the UCL Institute for Global Prosperity. Fuse responds to the complex challenges young people growing up in east London face to achieve their aspirations in a context of widening inequalities and COVID-19-related economic decline.
The project has employed six young designers from east London to investigate how local businesses and organisations can facilitate and support young people to live prosperous lives. It will follow a 4-step research and design process: Discover, Develop, Design and Deliver and create a product, service or intervention that will support young people.
Image Credit: Hannah Sender, Institute of Global Prosperity.
Hi! I'm Diana! And I'm David and we are here to tell you all about the Fuse project. The good, the bad and the ugly.
We are two of the six Fuse designers, working together to create a solution that helps young people in east London get into employment. The Fuse program brings together several organisations working in collaboration to create this solution, including the UCL Institute for Global Prosperity, Hackney Quest, the London Legacy Development Corporation and The Plug Youth Innovation Agency.
We both found out about the Fuse project online through various social media platforms and applied directly.
I, Diana, found it through Twitter, while David found it through IG!
After being shortlisted to the interview stage, I remember the reverse interviews and sending a reflection of the interview afterwards too. In other words, the reverse interview does exactly what it indicates: It reverses the roles of interviewer and interviewee. So, the interviewer will ask you to ask them questions about the position, company etc. you are seeking to be a part of.
So, we got in! Yay… and then the work began. We started with exploring some of the challenges the designers may face when conducting research and deepening our insights of the Fuse Project.
Once we explored who we can be as designers, we began to build the road map to delivery. We learned that to successfully create a product, service, or intervention which will support local young people, we will follow the double diamond strategy (a 4-phase development process where we begin with Mapping out, Exploring, Developing then finally Delivering the solution). Working with Hannah Sender from UCL has opened our minds to new ways of work. From exploring our first person accounts which enable our voice to be heard, and thus provide a transition from being an outsiders to an insider in the research (which is called autoethnography) to looking at the use of Google Maps when gathering our market research insights, we have developed our research skills immensely!
Here are some of our highlights:
To express new ways of mapping information, we looked at adding geolocations, i.e. with the interviews that we conducted and researched gathered. We used Google's mapping system to tag the insights collected. Thanks to Barbara Brayshay from Living Maps for the training sessions!
Autoethnography
We're young east Londoners ourselves. The challenges or opportunities we've experienced are valuable as insights. Autoethnography allows us to unravel our own experiences, and feed them into the insights gathered within our neighbourhoods.
We have conducted intense market research exploring what is already out there; like organisations developing skills or providing work placements. We focused our research on organisations/services which cover east London and provide opportunities for Young People.
We are using the Youth Prosperity Index methodology to develop a model for the prosperity of young people in east London.
We interviewed local young people and businesses and then took key chunks of information from those interviews. I, David, created themes and categories for further exploration in our creation and testing of possible community resolutions. When coming up with the interview questions, the Prosperity Index helped highlight a wide range of topics, by incorporating five domains (entry points to help frame, build and develop the research stage from). For example, exploring belonging, identities and cultural domain by unravelling young people's/businesses' sense of community and social relationships.
While David focused on primary research, I focused on secondary research, by breaking down the pre-existing data covering youth employment. I will then narrow my search by gathering data which explores specific topics like youth unemployment or youth opportunities in east London. In the coming weeks, I will continue to examine the key data found in more depth.
Now it is time to round this all up. While we have enjoyed many aspects of the project, there have also been some challenges working on the project during the pandemic. Such as balancing everyone's schedules as sometimes we are presented with situations we cannot manage alongside work. We have resolved this by communicating key learnings of sessions outside of work and also checking up on each other. Nevertheless, these challenges have helped us develop as a team and find different ways to support one another.
So far, we have been able to develop our public speaking, ethics knowledge in conducting research, research skills and much more. The experience we have had with Fuse so far has allowed us to develop our skills massively and deepen our knowledge. So Diana, what's one highlight? I have enjoyed my monthly discussions with some of the team exploring important topics in more depth, such as prosperity and regeneration. David, what's one of your highlights? I have enjoyed learning from different thinkers working on the Hamra Neighbourhood Profile and Prosperity Index, and learning about how you create local community change in different neighbourhoods across the world. Another highlight for us has been getting to know everyone in the team beyond the work in new environments like a crime scene interrogation room. David, do you mean the Mafia Icebreaker? Yeah!
So this was the first episode of D & D Fuse talks and we look forward to catching up with you all soon! Ciao, Odabo, Mirupafshim (in other words goodbye!).
Diana Hysenaj:
Diana is an 18-year-old student studying Politics and International Relations at Queen Mary University. Outside her work with Fuse, Diana is a Young Artist with NEWYVC choir, delivering workshops across primary/secondary schools in East London. Alongside this, she is a global mentor for iamthecode, helping to tackle the current global STEM skills shortage in marginalised communities.
She is also an ambassador for the Brokerage, a social mobility charity working with both young people and employers to drive positive change in the workplace and works on various projects one being a Youth podcast which will be launching soon! She volunteers her time to numerous organisations and during lockdown has been volunteering at Newham Foodbank.
David Adesanya:
David is an athlete, architecture graduate and social innovation fellow specialising in advocacy through design. He produces projects and research pieces highlighting silent conflicts in neighbourhoods in Europe, Beijing and he co-chairs a think tank in Pakistan. Besides this, he produces events, workshops and magazines. He has co-founded a collective which gives emerging creatives their first paid commissions and a space to cry, called Failsafe.
Hackney-born and raised! David believes we can affect and positively infect the world, and that's what he's here to do. He shares the belief that social action goes beyond just talking and pointing fingers at concerns rather, committing yourself to addressing and stopping it…

Party for the Animals
Healthy agriculture, sustainable food
Environment, climate, and energy
Biodiversity
Give employees and companies a sustainable future: impose conditions on state aid for polluting sectors now
All over the world, businesses are losing money as a result of the coronavirus and governments are allocating hundreds of billions to support them. The Dutch Party for the Animals is in favor of aid packages to combat the economic crisis and to keep people employed, but opposes unconditional support to polluting sectors. "Financial injections should be used to protect people and nature, not to keep companies going that contribute to climate change, pollution, and loss of biodiversity or conduct anti-social personnel policies," said Lammert van Raan, member of parliament for the Party for the Animals.
Governments from China to the US and Canada and from Europe to Australia are allocating money to mitigate the economic damage caused by Covid-19. Aviation and the oil, gas and automobile industries in particular demand and receive sky-high amounts - often without any concrete or even general conditions being imposed on their spending. Besides financial resources, relaxation, or suspension of environmental requirements is also used to "help sectors through the crisis". Companies such as EasyJet, Lufthansa, Air France/KLM, Shell, Gazprom, Total and Renault are kept afloat with public money without having to meet specific social or sustainability requirements - despite the urgent appeal of environmental organisations, publicists, and Secretary General of United Nations Antonio Guterres.
That is unacceptable and a missed opportunity according to the Party for the Animals. Van Raan: "We are currently going through several crises at the same time; in addition to the corona crisis, the climate and biodiversity crisis. The urgency of tackling the corona outbreak is rightly high, but the Party for the Animals would also like to see that sense of urgency in tackling climate change and biodiversity loss, which is now in danger of being shelved. If we further derail these crises, the costs - in the broad sense of the word - could be many times higher than the current economic support package that is being worked out."
That is why the Party for the Animals is strongly opposed to the postponement of climate measures and advocates the smart use of the financial resources currently being made available, so that all crises can be tackled at the same time. "Many companies already faced the task of adapting to playing a role in the future economy, one in which we no longer exceed the limits of the planet. These companies will benefit if we use the financial resources from the emergency package to accelerate this transition. And they do not benefit from restoring the old status quo of pollution, exploitation, and economies of scale. That economic model from before the corona crisis is part of the problem that led us to having a climate crisis and a biodiversity crisis," says Van Raan.
Help reform aviation: give employees a new chance
The Dutch Party for the Animals only supports state aid to airlines such as KLM if it is subject to strict conditions. "State aid must accelerate the sustainability of polluting sectors and so help them to become future-proof. That would also mean a significant decrease in the number of flights for airlines. Only by shrinking can aviation operate within the limits of the climate, living environment, and safety of humans and animals."
In addition to concrete conditions such as a strict CO2 budget, compliance with WHO standards in the field of emissions and noise, and a fair tax on kerosene and airline tickets, the Party for the Animals also wants to set a more social personnel policy. "KLM has no regard for its own staff and fires thousands of people in direct conflict with the intention of the job retention aid package during the corona crisis," says Van Raan. "Since aviation will have to shrink structurally, we must actively help personnel from that sector to switch to a truly future-proof job in other sectors, such as healthcare and education."
Toxin-free bulbs for the world market and sustainably produced food for the region
The Party for the Animals also wants to attach sustainability conditions to the millions of euros of state aid to the floriculture and potato sector. "It is a missed opportunity if an end to the large-scale use of poison does not become a condition for support for these sectors," said PftA MP Frank Wassenberg. "The cultivation of lilies, tulips, and potatoes - almost 90 percent of which is destined for export - uses an incredible amount of agricultural poison. Nature and local residents are struggling with its harmful effects."
In addition to drastically reducing the use of agricultural poison, the Party for the Animals also pleads for a transition to nature-inclusive circular agriculture in which agricultural land is used as efficiently as possible. In this light, the party has urged the minister to use the Covid-19 support package to help a large amount of export-oriented floriculture companies switch to sustainable food production for their own region.

Scope: Up until a few years ago there were over 150 different modelling languages available to software developers. This vast array of choice however, only served to severely hinder effective communication. Therefore, to combat this, every methodologist and many companies agreed to speak the same language, hence the birth of the unified modelling language (UML). The UML offers a means to communicate complex information in a simple way using visual modelling; i.e. drawing diagrams to create a model of a system.
This fully revised edition, based on a training course given by the author, coincides with the release of UML version 2 by the standard body, the Object Management Group, and covers the significant changes that have occurred since its release. It also includes material on life cycle management, examining the way the UML can be used to control and manage projects and the UML systems engineering profile.


"Hellboy," the reboot that sees "Stranger Things" actor David Harbour take on the role of the red-skinned superhero, looks to have the best start among new releases. The R-rated fantasy film based on Mike Mignola's graphic novels is expected to earn $16 million to $20 million when it launches on 3,303 screens. Directed by Neil Marshall, "Hellboy" follows the half-demon superhero caught between the supernatural and human world. The cast also includes Ian McShane, Sasha Lane, and Daniel Dae Kim. This iteration is the third live-action and first R-rated "Hellboy" movie. Guillermo del Toro directed 2004's "Hellboy" and 2008's "Hellboy II: The Golden Army," both of which starred Ron Perlman.
Universal Pictures is targeting a younger female audience with "Little," a body-swap comedy about a tech mogul (Regina Hall) who transforms back into the 13-year-old version of herself (Marsai Martin) just before a major work presentation. The movie is anticipating a start around $14 million and $18 million when it launches in 2,600 theaters. "Little," also starring Issa Rae, cost $20 million to produce. Tina Gordon directed the PG-13 comedy, which was produced by Will Packer, known for his work on "Girls Trip," "Night School" and the "Ride Along" franchise. Martin, who came up with the premise of the movie, serves as the youngest executive producer of all time.
On the family front, "Missing Link" should generate between $8 million and $12 million from 3,500 venues. The latest stop-motion animated adventure from Laika, the studio behind "Coraline" and "ParaNorman," follows a myths and monsters investigator who sets off to prove the existence of a mythical creature called Mr. Link. Directed by Chris Butler, the voice cast of "Missing Link" includes Hugh Jackman, Zoe Saldana and Emma Thompson.
This weekend's final release, "After," should generate single digits. Tracking for the YA romantic drama that centers on a college student who begins a relationship with the school's resident bad boy suggests a wide range between $3 million and $12 million.
On the specialty front, IFC Films is releasing the biblical drama "Mary Magdalene" on 50 screens. It stars Rooney Mara as the divine figure who begins to follow Jesus of Nazareth (Joaquin Phoenix).

An Open Letter to the FOMC: Recognizing the Valuation Bubble In Equities John P. Hussman, Ph.D.
The chart below is from one of the best tools that the Fed offers the public, the Federal Reserve Economic Database (FRED). The chart shows the ratio of corporate profits to GDP, which is presently at a record. The fact that profits as a share of GDP are more than 70% above their historical norm should immediately raise a question as to whether current year earnings or next year's projected "forward earnings" should be used as a sufficient statistic for long-term cash flows and equity market valuation without any further reflection. Then again, more work is required to demonstrate that such an approach would be misleading. We're just getting warmed up.
A simple way to see the implications of the present elevation of the profit share is to relate the level of profit margins to subsequent growth in profits over a reasonably "cyclical" horizon of several years. Remember, when one values equities, one is valuing a long-term stream, not just next year's earnings. Investors taking current-year or forward-year profits as a sufficient statistic should be aware that high margins are reliably associated with weak profit growth over subsequent years.
As a result, the above identity reduces – from the standpoint of overall variability – to a statement thatcorporate profits as a share of GDP are nearly the mirror image of deficits in the household and government sectors. A simple way to think about this is that dissaving in both sectors helps to support corporate revenues and limit the need for competition, even when wages and salaries are depressed. It follows that most of the variability in corporate profits over time is driven by mirror image variations in the household and government sectors. As it happens, this relationship turns out to be strongest with a lag of roughly 4-6 quarters. Given the general improvement in combined government and household savings that began just over a year ago, it follows that current-year or even higher year-ahead earnings estimates may not be particularly useful "sufficient statistics" for the purpose of valuing equities.

Oct. 23, 1955: An Alcohol Tax Unit agent uses an axe to dump moonshine whisky, which sold for about $1 a pint with no tax. (The Pittsburgh Press)
June 7, 1958: Authorities dump a giant moonshine cocktail out the window of the former Cinderella Gardens in Millvale. (The Pittsburgh Press)
When a moonshine bust was to be made in the mid-20th century, distillers could be certain of two things.
First, the investigating law enforcement agency would make an example of them, flipping or hacking apart barrels and creating glorious waterfalls of mash.
Second, any and all media members — especially newspaper photographers — were guaranteed to be in tow.
Decades later, the mutual excitement surrounding one of these busts is obvious on policemen's faces and in a published photograph's angle or caption.
Moonshine was illegal then and remains so today because its makers don't pay state taxes. Moreover, health departments cannot inspect their operations, an obvious health hazard.
As George Swetnam of The Pittsburgh Press wrote in the 1970s, "…beginning in 1862, during Civil War days, came the Department of Revenue, and moonshiners have been in business ever since."
In Pittsburgh, the brews were generally made in rural areas around or outside Allegheny County, "where the smell doesn't bother anyone," as city police inspector William Moore said in 1975.
They were then brought into city speakeasies and other illegal drinking locales; this was still the case long after the end of prohibition. The busts gradually declined in number in the second half of the 20th century — perhaps because of the negative press examples, but more likely because there were just better jobs to be had then.
By the early 1980s, only a dozen Pittsburgh-area moonshine busts had been made in five years. Drugs like cocaine and eventually methamphetamine, considered under state and federal law to be more dangerous than alcohol, became the more common source of illegal income and thus a cause for more arrests than was moonshine.
And at the end of the 1980s, according to the Associated Press, moonshine-making seemed more a problem inside Pennsylvania prisons than outside.

The complex and tough Dante "Tex" Gill


Companies are becoming more clever about using – or misusing, depending on your perspective – the patent system to extract funds from competitors or thwart others' growth. This harms America's best companies and most promising startups.
One example of this growth is the emergence of so-called patent privateering, which contributes to an ever-greater amount of frivolous or abusive patent litigation. Privateering is a pleasant euphemism for empowering a pirate to attack your competitors for profit. Patent privateering occurs when a company lends or sells a portion of its patents to another litigious company to sue alleged patent infringers who are all too often the competitors of the original patent recipient company that was under the impression it had licensed the entire portfolio. As increasing numbers of startup companies fail for one reason or another, the trend of patent privateering will likely accelerate as will the harm caused to successful businesses of all ages, levels of success and sizes.
There are two modern and opposing caricatures of pirates; patent privateers are prime examples of the decidedly ugly and destructive kind. In the movies it is typical for the audience to support the pirate character as a free-spirited vagabond that sails the high seas and thwarts officious bureaucrats while robbing from the rich. The other image – and the one matching the practice of patent privateers – is the Treasure Island image where the pirates are duplicitous, greedy, remorseless thieves.
This split between contrasting images also is apparent in discussions about patent privateers; some companies that use patent privateering to extract patent licensing arrangements from other companies on behalf of the original patent owner laud the patent privateer as the means for gaining value from patents. Others recognize that patent privateering is abusive and often yields ill-gotten gains for the original owner of the patent in question stolen from other businesses.
Like pirates for hire marauding, sailing up and down the coasts stealing from hard working businesses, patent privateers give their victims the opportunity to choose one of a series of terrible outcomes. The victim businesses are threatened with, or actually sued for often-fictitious patent violations. Their choices are grim. The victimized businesses may give up their gold and treasure, walk the plank or be put to the sword. If they agree to give up their money, they may pay a significant nuisance litigation fee to "license" a patent they thought they had already licensed or one they may never have infringed simply to stop litigation costs from bleeding their company slowly. Or, if they insist on fighting frivolous patent privateering litigation, it is akin to walking the plank and taking their chances while their business is under attack. Lastly, especially if they are a startup business, they may get stabbed to death and choose to terminate their business entirely to end impoverishing litigation and avoid bogus infringement claims.
Unless policy makers change the rules, general counsels across America should expect far more patent privateering in the future. There is nothing usual about the growth of patent privateering. Failing or failed startups are seeking to recoup investors' money, increase profits or advance their competitive position by selling their patents to litigators expressly to instigate lawsuits against the startups' competitors. Selling the assets – including the patents – of a business is natural part of the business cycle, but only when the patents sold are used by the purchaser for building or enhancing products or services or to defend against other patent trolls' frivolous claims.
When, however, startups that are struggling or established companies that seek unfair advantage arrange with litigation shops to share their patents for a cut of the litigation proceeds or sell them outright to a company they know will sue their competitors and harm those competitors' ability to compete fairly, the marketplace is badly distorted.
Prototypical privateering abuse looks like this; Company A licenses some patents to Company B. Then, Company A – just like colonial powers from the 17th Century, empower pirates (Company C in our example) to attack their rivals (Company B in our example) by lending or selling other patents to Company C. Company C then threatens Company B with allegations of patent infringement. Company B – our honest, hardworking, American company –has been duped and extorted under threat at the point-of-the-sword of litigation to either "license" the new patents from Company C or pay litigation costs. Company C then kicks back some of the ill-gotten gains from this abusive patent litigation to Company A that masterminded the scheme.
five companies. The aggregate turnover of the infringed patent is approximately 80 million dollars per year and the gross profit generated is approximately 50 million dollars per year.
Perhaps my spam filters need to be fine tuned and certainly the senders' targeting needs to be greatly refined, but this offer to sell patents simply for their litigation value rather than for the opportunity to purchase a going concern that is actively engaged in the market is an invitation for nuisance litigation and worse.
The latest patent litigation numbers are out for the last year and they are worse than ever showing significant spikes in the amount of abusive patent litigation. Unfortunately, I was not the only one who received an email offering patents prepped for litigating to extract funds maliciously from other businesses. Abusive patent litigation has long been a problem and many in Congress are working towards a set of solutions to chip away at this problem.
While the patent legislation pending before the House and Senate, chiefly the Innovation Act and the PATENT Act need to be enacted into law quickly to reduce the number of frivolous lawsuits, lawmakers ought not to miss the chance to reform patent trolls and severely restrict patent privateering or we should expect more not less frivolous, abusive and anti-competitive litigation in the future with patent privateers marauding and attacking America's best businesses without fear.

Why Did Martha Stewart Get In Trouble
Zaheer | Apr 29, 2011 | 0 comments
The Martha Stewart verdict is an outrage. The case itself characterizes government of the day — an institution that is at large to meddle with any walk of your life, free to form the rules as it pleases, free to facilitate prosecutors to earn reputation for themselves in hi-fi cases without any inconvenience, regardless of the harm they inflict.
Martha Stewart has earned name in different kinds of jobs such as that of an author, magazine publisher and television host. Moreover, she was also a very brilliant business entrepreneur. She set up Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia that led her excel in trading, publishing and broadcasting. Those who desire to learn more about this immensely flourishing and leading figure, following is a gist at her bright life history with special focus on why Martha Stewart got in trouble:
Involvement and Conviction in a Stock Trading Case
Now, why did Martha Stewart get in trouble, the issue gained the public attention in the closing phase of 2001, when she marketed all of her shares of ImClone. Just a day after that landmark decision, the worth of the stocks fell substantially by some 18 percent. Later in the coming months, she encountered huge enquiry from the media agencies. Consequently, in October 2002she had to resign as a member of the New York Stock Exchange board of directors.
The authorities in States impeached her on different counts in June 2003 levying charges such as stalling justice and securities' embezzlement. Afterwards, she deliberately relinquished her seat as Chairwoman as well as Chief Executive Officer of Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia. Nevertheless, she kept acting as the Chief Creative Officer of the body. Her trial proper started by October, 2002.
By March 2004, the court declared her responsible for many charges, viz. passing misleading statements to U.S. federal investigators, impeding an agency proceeding and the intrigue. In July 2004, she was awarded her verdict that featured conditional release for a couple of years' period, a five-month detention in a federal correctional service. On top of that, the sentence also pronounced a home confinement for about five months.
In September 2004, she began her prison in term. She was detained at West Virginia's Alderson Federal Prison Camp by October 2004. The court yielded to her appeal in March 2005 that set her free under the condition that she would remain under home detention minimum for a period of five months. Moreover, she was asked to pay a fine to the tune of $30,000/-. In August 2006, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission decreed to settle the civil law suit against Stewart.
Other Significant Details About Martha Stewart
In view of her multifarious accomplishments, "Ladies Home Journal" dubbed her as America's third most influential woman. Having served her hours in confinement, she was formally released by March 2005. She also performed in hit TV Shows such as "The Apprentice: Martha Stewart" and "The Martha Stewart Show." In 2005, under her headship, Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia published the cookbook entitled "Martha Stewart Baking Handbook".
