The media advocacy group, Reporters Without Borders (RSF), says at least 50 journalists across the world have been killed while on active duty this year, with the majority of those killed outside countries at war.
The review shows that journalists are increasingly being targeted and killed because of their work.
Some 84% of journalists killed this year were deliberately targeted, up from 63% in 2019.
Journalists around the world also faced legal challenges this year. A record number of reporters were jailed, according to the annual census from the Committee to Protect Journalists.
The group found that 271 journalists were jailed as of 1 December, the most since record-keeping began in the 90s.
🔴 #2020RsfRoudnUp: 50 journalists killed, 2/3 in countries "at peace".
The most dangerous stories are investigations into cases of corruption/misuse of public funds – organised crime. In a new development, 7 journalists were killed while covering protestshttps://t.co/0LUhik7hE0 pic.twitter.com/gA01p4kDuN

Investigative journalists targeted
Journalists publishing investigative stories were particularly vulnerable to attacks.
Ten journalists were killed after publishing investigations into cases of local corruption or misuse of public funds and four were killed for their stories on organized crime.
Meanwhile, in what RSF noted as a new trend in 2020, seven journalists were killed while covering protests.
The overall number of killings is down from 53 in 2019, with fewer journalists in the field this year because of the Covid-19 pandemic.
Journalists under threat
In 2020, 68% of journalists killed were working in countries that were not at war. That's up from 62% in 2019, and 60% in 2018.
"I don't think it has ever been as scary as it is right now. Because it seems that all journalists are under threat," says Najib Sharifi, the head of the Afghan Journalists Safety Committee.
"Within the span of only six weeks, we lost four journalists. They were all shot and killed at close range, or died when bombs that had been attached to their cars exploded."
Afghanistan has seen the same trend as other countries around the world, according to RSF in the second part of its annual report.
The report says there has been a drop in the number of journalists who died while reporting on armed conflict or terror attacks, but points out that the number of victims of targeted killings has risen steadily.
Forty of the 50 journalists killed this year died this way.
The deadliest countries
Mexico was the deadliest nation for journalists in 2020, with eight reporters killed.
The country has seen an average of eight to 10 journalists killed each year for the past five years, the report added.
"The links between drug traffickers and politicians remain, and journalists who dare to cover these or related issues continue to be the targets of barbaric murders."

Gruesome murders detailed in the report include Julio Valdivia Rodríguez, a reporter for the daily El Mundo, whose body was found decapitated in the state of Veracruz.
The body of Víctor Fernando Álvarez Chávez, the editor of the local news website Punto x Punto Noticias, was cut to pieces in the coastal city of Acapulco.
Iraq was the second-deadliest country, with six deaths, followed by Afghanistan, with five. India and Pakistan were an equal fourth, each reporting the deaths of four journalists.
In Pakistan, the journalist Zulfiqar Mandrani, was found dead in May, his body bearing signs of torture. His friends and colleagues claim his death was connected to his investigation of a drug case that involved alleged wrongdoings of police officers.
RSF's round-up comes days after the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) reported 2020 to be the worst year on record for the imprisonment of journalists.
Globally, at least 274 journalists were jailed, up from the previous record of 272 in 2016, CPJ reported.
The Covid connection
RSF also noted the "developing" trend of violence against media workers covering protests, notably in the United States during protests against the killing of George Floyd, and in France during protests against a controversial new security law.
In the first part of the report, RSF said it was concerned that measures imposed by governments to fight the pandemic had contributed to a "significant peak in violations of press freedom."
RSF also noted that hundreds of journalists lost their lives this year due to COVID-19, with some of these deaths linked to their reporting assignments.
RSF recorded three such cases in Russia, Egypt and Saudi Arabia, where journalists were arrested in connection with their work and later died of COVID-19 having been denied access to medical care.

We know how vital a fast delivery service can be, so we aim to dispatch all orders within three working days of payment. This is usually just one working day, and on a next-day courier service within the UK.
Export shipment times vary between the country and chosen service, but we dispatch within the same timeframe as UK orders.
In certain circumstances beyond MED Race Technologies' control, the delivery time may vary. We will contact you if there is a delay to your order.
Our courier service delivers between 8:00 and 19:00 on weekdays, and will require a signature to release the shipment, so please specify an address where someone will be able to sign for your order between these hours. We will not take responsibility for orders delayed or additional redelivery charges incurred due to no one being available to accept a delivery.
We make every effort to deliver within the times stated, but will not be liable for any loss caused to you by late delivery. If the products are not delivered within the delivery times quoted above, please contact MED Race Technologies and we will ensure that you receive your order as quickly as possible.
Early deliveries, Saturdays and even Sundays are available upon request, but these options are not programmed into the website, so please contact us by phone and we will be able to quote.
We ship daily to most destinations worldwide. Delivery time is not guaranteed with international shipping due to potential customs and clearance delays, but most shipments will be delivered in five to seven days via Fedex.
We list an option for 'priority' and 'standard' services on export orders. To some addresses you may find that the fastest priority service is actually cheaper than standard. This is simply down to the number of daily export shipments – any bulk discounts are passed directly to the customer.
You may be subject to import duties and taxes, which are levied once the package reaches the specified destination. Any additional charges for customs clearance must be borne by you; we have no control over these charges and cannot predict what they may be.
Additionally, when ordering from us the customer must comply with all laws and regulations of the country in which the goods are received.


In 2010 we couldn't really talk about Marvell without talking about Micron / Crucial, but things are about to change. Marvell is now preparing a team of SSD manufacturers, but the model remains a little cloudy at this time. On one side Micron / Crucial are preparing the RealSSD C400 (Micron) and the C4 (Crucial). I won't even get into that naming snafu today, since it's out of my control, but the naming isn't really that big of a story.
At Computex we tested a next generation drive from ADATA, the S501. Once we got home with the drive we took a closer look and found that LiteOn had their hands in the drive. It appears that LiteOn, the company we all know from optical storage products, is developing their own Marvell based SSD. It looks like LiteOn will be the OEM for the builder, and several companies soon to be called 'Team Marvell' will sell the drive. So far we know of Plextor and ADATA, but with Corsair and possibly Patriot releasing Marvell controlled SSDs, Team Marvell appears to be growing. Of course, no one will share who their OEM is, but LiteOn will be a big player in 2011 even if they are behind the scenes and even if they are just in place for a development role.
We expect our first next generation Marvell controller sample to come from Crucial and we could see it any day now. Crucial will deliver the first next generation consumer SSD in 2011, the C4. This is going to play out well for Crucial since Team SandForce will trail in the consumer space by at least two to three months; maybe even longer. Things aren't perfect, though, for Crucial / Team Marvell. The rumor is that the new Marvell controller will only work with 25nm flash and it could be expensive.
The ADATA unit we tested at Computex used the same flash as the RealSSD C300, but it was also just an updated variant of the same C300 controller. The new models should be a new controller all together, but until we start seeing these drives in house there is no telling what company is going to go with what controller. Our heads are spinning just trying to figure this one out, but we know for certain that Crucial will be running the real deal next generation controller and not a slightly modified 2010 controller.
Every company we visited with a Marvell controller stressed that the new SATA 6G offering will bring "aggressive garbage collection". It's one thing to hear it from one company, but when everyone talks about it then something is a foot. As most of you know, TRIM commands are not passed along through RAID arrays and over time arrays get beaten up from data being deleted from the drives. For the last couple of years arrays needed to be broken and the individual drives cleansed. If the Team Marvell manufacturers manage to make do with what they are promising, the yearly cleaning cycle may be broken and Marvell controllers might be the way to go for high speed RAID arrays.

Děj seriálu

První řada

Luna Valente (Karol Sevilla) spokojeně žije v Mexiku. Našla si skvělou brigádu, rozváží jídlo na bruslích. Takže může trávit většinu svého volného času tím, co má nejradši: baví se s nejlepším kamarádem Simónem a bruslí po celé Cancúnské promenádě. Lunin život nabere neočekávaný směr, když se s celou rodinou přestěhuje do Argentiny. Stres Luna zahání bruslením a díky nim objeví soutěž Jam & Roller. Na bruslařském stadiónu se také seznámí s okouzlujícím Matteem. Díky svému odhodlání a nadšení se Luna naučí freestylovému bruslení, potká nové kamarády a objeví své pravé já.

Druhá řada

Prázdniny skončily a každý se vrací domů. Luna dochází k odhalení pravdy s iluzí v její setkání s Matteem. Nikdo nezná tajemství, které Matteo skrývá, ale Luna je ochotna bojovat s větrem a vzduchem, aby to tajemství odhalila. V průběhu času Luna pomáhá Matteovi odhalit jeho pravou vášeň a vyrovnat se s tlakem jeho náročného otce. Ve vile Benson nastává napjatá atmosféra po příjezdu Alfreda, otce paní Sharon, to mění rutinu v přívaly vzpomínek z minulosti. Luna cítí silný soucit s Alfredem, který vypadá natolik podobně. Ámbar, Jasmín, Delfi, Gastón, Ramiro a Matteo tento rok ukončí studium a musí se rozhodnout, jakou cestu se vydají.

Třetí řada

Teď, když je známa pravá Sól Bensonová, Luna se stává novou dědičkou jmění a život v sídle se radikálně mění. Sharon změní vzhled a identitu. Vrací se s novým jménem a ve spojení s Reyem (Rodrigo Pedreira), který se vrátil do práce, plánuje svou pomstu. Rey pracuje jako dvojitý agent a přidá dalšího spojence, nového domácího zaměstnance, který vstupuje do vily. Luna hledá informace o svých rodičích, minulost se vrací přes své sny a ve vile spojeném s minulostí rodiny Benson se objeví nová tajemství. Sny vedou Lunu do Sharonina pokoje, který byl kdysi pokojem Lili a Bernieho. V této tajemné místnosti se skrývá tajemství o její minulosti a původu, který Luna odhalí s pomocí Niny.

Na začátku se Jam & Roller stává ústředím Red Sharks pod velením Garyho Lópeze (Joaquína Bertholda). Gary ruší tým Rolleru a staví nový, který tvoří Ámbar (Valentina Zenere), Emília (Giovanna Reynaud), Benício (Pasquale di Nuzzo) a Ramiro, nová osa zla. Mezitím se Luna a ostatní členy týmu snaží udržet si své místo v týmu a čelit velkým překážkám a výzívam red Sharks na souboj na bruslích a začíná tým red Sharks udělejte bublinu

Barclays Bank has recently been in the headlines following claims of financial mis-selling. The Barclays PPI scandal is still on the mind of many as these practices came to light.
In October 2018, Barclays revealed an internal report advising that the consumer lending arm of the bank, Barclays Partner Finance may have failed to protect customers from misleading and aggressive sales tactics from salesmen. As a result, they failed to stop customers being pressured into taking out unaffordable loans.
The credit agreements were used by many customers to buy furniture, cars and fund home improvements. Barclays have now confirmed they will review these policies, which potentially number in the thousands, and compensate any victims of mis-selling.
The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has ordered Barclays to overhaul its loan practices in light of these concerns.
This new mis-selling scandal suggested Barclays hasn't learnt any lessons from the mis-sale of PPI.
Barclays has admitted telling customers they did not hold PPI policies when in fact they did.
The bank has provided an online PPI checking tool since 2012. However, it has identified problems with claims submitted by claims management companies, as these requests were not always checked against some of the records held.
Barclays have not confirmed exactly how many customers this issue could have affected. They have only stated it is "less than 1.1% of cases where the claim was made via a claims management company may have been told incorrectly" there was no PPI taken out. However in light of the scale of the PPI mis-selling scandal, thousands of Barclays customers could be affected.
If you believe you took out a loan or credit agreement with Barclay, and PPI was added to your loan, it is likely the lender received additional undisclosed commission as it was common practice. You may be eligible to claim a refund of the commission.
This is because undisclosed commission amounts to an unfair financial relationship. You can learn more about Plevin claims here.
Get in touch with our team of financial mis-selling experts. We will take some details of your credit agreement. Then we can start investigating on your behalf.


The startup Neurable will launch an accessory for HTC Vive that will allow to play with the mind based on intentions.
The last months are bringing much news from the hands of technological geniuses as to the possibility of connecting our brains to computers . These statements are surprising to the ignorance that today still weighs on such an important part of our body, the most relevant in the face of the arrival of the technological singularity. In this sense the startup Neurable ensures that an integrable accessory with the HTC and Valve virtual reality kit allows you to control video games with the mind.
These intentions, depending on the user can vary enormously, both in form and background, would not, on the contrary, generate very different actions in the game, ie with a range of possible limited actions, the results would not vary. This, on the one hand could present a little complex development, but according to the team, BCI connections based on electrocardiograms have been a great disappointment for almost everyone who has tried them regardless of the moment, while Neurable demonstrations are having a Great response from the test .
From Neurable they expect their first virtual reality game to hit the market in 2018, but not to private consoles, but to arcade machines. What they are showing at the moment is a reduced version with which to experiment, and thus be able to make changes when the final version reaches the rooms.

For our Fed Central's second match of the season Folke Pope rejoined the team, and since Paul Francis was still non-weight-bearing on crutches, Margaret Murray agreed to play for us again, pairing up with stand-in captain Philip de Glanville for a +15T win in the doubles, while Folke overtook Camerton's Colin Britt in the final minutes for a triumphant 25:24 win in his singles match. Folke continued in winning form in the afternoon, against Tony Brooks, who played magnificently and just failed to catch Folke in another 25:24 nail-biter. This was Folke's 5th consecutive win and took his handicap down to a well-earned 7. Margaret lost -3T against Mo Boys in an agonisingly slow low-scoring match, but Philip got the better of Colin Britt with a +16 win, the only game of the day to finish inside the 3 hours.

WSPR 2.21 Rig control just doesn't work with TS-570D.
I can't get my TS-570D to talk to wspr 2.21 under Linux or Windows 7 anymore.
I even replaced the serial to USB converter thinking it had gone bad. I also thought this was just a Linux control problem.
The same issue exists on different machines. If I keep hammering on it it will eventually change freq under Linux under Windows 7 64 it doesn't.
Something is off because this issue exists with my TS-2000 as well.
Using the Kenwood command set my Flex-3000 band changes and TX/RX switches on the same Windows 7 64 computer that the TS-570D is on.


Nearly all communication is done through writing, so students should feel confident in their writing abilities.
With online courses there is great flexibility in how and when you learn the content of a course. With that amount of flexibility, students must know how and when they learn best and commit to a routine that utilizes the best learning styles for them. Committing to a routine will take discipline and support not only from the student, but from family members and the instructor as well.
Employs critical thinking and decision making skills as part of the learning process.
As part of the learning process, students will have to use critical thought and analysis, drawing from course content and personal experiences, to make decisions and understand processes.
Is committed to 6 to 9 hours a week per 3 credit course and logs in often.
For a three-credit-hour course, students should spend a minimum of six to nine hours a week on course work. Some of the time will be spent online and other time will be spent reading, writing and problem solving offline. Actual study time will depend on the students' prior background, training, experience, talents, type of text or exercise, etc. It is important for students to visit class often. Students may want to check daily to see if the instructor has put up a new announcement or if there is anything new in the discussion area.
Completes all work on time.
The pace of an online course is normally fast and requires commitment on the students' part. Staying with the pace of the class and completing all assignments on time is critical to the students' success. Once students fall behind, it is almost impossible to catch up.
Has reliable access to a computer and the internet.
In order for students to access the class and become proficient in the content, they must have access to the required technology to complete their course work.
To better understand what is expected of an online learner and to self-assess readiness as an online student click here.
A computer, either a PC or Apple running either Windows or Mac operating systems, with a sound card, speakers, and high speed internet access are required. Access to a printer and/or a scanner may also be required depending on the course.
The standard software is Microsoft Office. Microsoft Office includes Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Multimedia software such as Media Player, QuickTime or RealPlayer and a pdf. file reader software such as Adobe Reader or Preview may also be necessary. Faculty may require the use of special software that is bundled with the textbook or the purchase of additional software.
For optimal performance of Sakai, please access it using the following recommended operating system and browser combinations. A PC should be running Windows 10 or later and use the latest version of Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome, Flash Player, and Java. A Mac should be running the latest version of macOS (10.11 or higher) with latest version of Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox, Flash Player, and Jave.
Do Not Use Multiple Browser Windows! Do NOT open more than one Sakai browser window while being logged into the system. It is easy to log yourself out of one and get logged out of the others, losing what you were working on - assignments, tests, etc.
How students communicate with each other is very important in an online course. The Netiquette rule described below must be followed to provide a supportive, positive and constructive learning environment.
Show respect for the instructor and for other students in the class.
Respect the privacy of the instructor and other students.
Express differences of opinion in a polite and rational way. Use of offensive, threatening, harassing or hostile language or a confrontational tone is never acceptable.
Avoid bringing up irrelevant topics when involved in group discussions or other collaborative activities.Use mainly lower case in posts or messages with proper capitalization rules.
A good way to avoid problems is to compose your postings off-line and reread them before sending them. Something written in haste may not say what you really think after the heat of the moment has passed.
If you need assistance, contact your instructor or the WSC Help Desk at 375-7107, e-mail helpdesk@wsc.edu.

Rates of obesity, "the paramount health challenge" of our time, continue to soar all over the world largely due to the influence of multinational junk food industries, found the report authors; a commission of experts assembled by the Lancet medical journal.
"No country has successfully reversed its epidemic because the systemic and institutional drivers of obesity remain largely unabated," noted the commission.
The experts criticised governments for their "patchy progress" and "inertia" in implementing evidence-based obesity-prevention policies including taxes on unhealthy foods and beverages.
In South Africa, public health experts have blamed beverage companies, and their lobby groups, for stalling the country's introduction of the tax on sugary-sweetened drinks.
One of the commission's recommendations is the barring of these industries from negotiations on policies aimed at regulating unhealthy products.
This is in sharp contrast to the way in which negotiations on the health promotion levy, known as the sugar tax, took place in the National Economic and Development Council in South Africa.
Activists have criticised this process for favouring the interests of big business and blamed industry influence for a weaker tax than initially proposed. The tax is roughly equivalent to a 10 percent levy on a common soda, but Treasury recommended a levy closer to 20 percent.
Without recognising how obesity is influenced by the entire food system and food environment, people classified as obese are often stigmatised and judged negatively.
"Holding people responsible for their obesity distracts attention from the obesogenic systems that produce obesity," noted the commission.
Policy interventions including taxes, limiting the marketing of unhealthy products, regulating the labelling of processed foods and subsidising healthy alternatives, need to be prioritised by governments. These policy measures have been consistently identified by several major bodies as much more effective in curbing obesity than interventions only aimed at individuals.
The report also highlighted the impacts of climate change on health and stressed the need for broad and multi-sectoral policy interventions addressing all these challenges.
The fight against obesity should be ramped up to resemble that against tobacco with the commission calling for a United Nations treaty on promoting healthy food similar to the Framework Convention on Tobacco Control.
Comparing the health dangers of junk food to those of smoking, a commentator in the Lancet report said: "[Governments] allow the food companies to produce unhealthy foods, it should be an offence." – Health-e News.

The following table identifies how SQL Anywhere and UltraLite remote data types are mapped to Adaptive Server Enterprise consolidated data types. For example, a column of type FLOAT on the remote database should be type REAL on the consolidated database.
Maximum column length (MCL) depends on the Adaptive Server Enterprise page size. If the page size is 2K the MCL is 1954; if the page size is 4K the MCL is 4002. For information about MCL, see the Adaptive Server Enterprise documentation.
On download, ensure the values are not too long.
For Adaptive Server Enterprise DATETIME, the year must be in the range 1753-9999.
For SQL Anywhere and UltraLite, the time value must in the format 00:00:00.
The Adaptive Server Enterprise DATETIME values are accurate to 1/300 second. The last digit of the fractional second is always 0, 3, or 6. Other digits are rounded to one of these three digits, so 0 and 1 round to 0; 2, 3, and 4 round to 3; 5, 6, 7, and 8 round to 6; and 9 rounds to 10.
For download, SQL Anywhere keeps the original values from Adaptive Server Enterprise, but for upload, the values may not be exactly the original values.
If DATETIME is used for a primary key, conflict resolution may fail. To successfully synchronize DATETIME, you should round the fractional second to 10 milliseconds. Also, the year must be in the range 1753-9999.
The precision of the Adaptive Server Enterprise NUMERIC can be from 1 to 38 digits (p<39).
There is no corresponding data type in Adaptive Server Enterprise.
The precision of the Adaptive Server Enterprise decimal can be from 1 to 38 digits (p<39).
SQL Anywhere and UltraLite SMALLDATETIME is implemented as TIMESTAMP.
The Adaptive Server Enterprise DATETIME is accurate to the minute. 29.998 seconds or lower are rounded down to the nearest minute; values with 29.999 seconds or higher are rounded up to the nearest minute. SQL Anywhere or UltraLite SMALLDATETIME is accurate to the microsecond. To successfully synchronize, SQL Anywhere or UltraLite SMALLDATETIME must be rounded to the minute. Also, the year must be in the range 1753-9999.
The Adaptive Server Enterprise TIME values are accurate to 1/300 second. The last digit of the fractional second is always 0, 3, or 6. Other digits are rounded to one of these three digits, so 0 and 1 round to 0; 2, 3, and 4 round to 3; 5, 6, 7, and 8 round to 6; and 9 rounds to 10. For download, SQL Anywhere keeps the original values from Adaptive Server Enterprise, but for upload, the values may not be exactly the original values. If TIME is used for a primary key, conflict resolution may fail. To successfully synchronize TIME, you should round the fractional second to 10 milliseconds.
The Adaptive Server Enterprise DATETIME values are accurate to 1/300 second. The last digit of the fractional second is always 0, 3, or 6. Other digits are rounded to one of these three digits, so, 0 and 1 round to 0; 2, 3, and 4 round to 3; 5, 6, 7, and 8 round to 6; and 9 rounds to 10.
TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE VARCHAR(34) There is no equivalent data type in Adaptive Server Enterprise. Therefore, a TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE column should be mapped to a VARCHAR(34) column. In upload, the MobiLink server first converts the data to a string using the format YYYY-MM-DD HH:NN:SS.SSSSSS [+|-]HH:NN and then applies it to the consolidated database. In download, it converts the data from string to TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE. Ensure the data in the consolidated database follows this format or the download will fail.
Do not use UNIQUEIDENTIFIERSTR. Use UNIQUEIDENTIFIER instead.
1 Only applies to Adaptive Server Enterprise before version 15.0.
2 Only applies to Adaptive Server Enterprise version 15.0 or later.
3 Only applies to Adaptive Server Enterprise version 12.5.1 or later.
4 Only applies to Adaptive Server Enterprise before version 12.5.1.
The following table identifies how Adaptive Server Enterprise consolidated data types are mapped to SQL Anywhere and UltraLite remote data types. For example, a column of type DOUBLE PRECISION on the consolidated database should be type DOUBLE on the remote database.
There is no equivalence between SQL Anywhere CHAR/NCHAR and Adaptive Server Enterprise CHAR/NCHAR. SQL Anywhere CHAR/NCHAR is equivalent to VARCHAR/NVARCHAR. You should not use CHAR/NCHAR in a consolidated database column that is synchronized. If you must use non-SQL Anywhere CHAR/NCHAR, run the MobiLink server with the -b option.
The Adaptive Server Enterprise DATETIME values are accurate to 1/300 second. The last digit of the fractional second is always one of 0, 3, or 6. Other digit numbers are rounded to one of these three digits, so 0 and 1 round to 0; 2, 3, and 4 round to 3; 5, 6, 7, and 8 round to 6; and 9 rounds to 10.
For download, SQL Anywhere keeps the original values from Adaptive Server Enterprise, but for upload, the values may not be exactly the original values. Conflict resolution may fail. To successfully synchronize DATETIME, you should round the fractional second to 10 milliseconds. Also, the year must be in the range 1753-9999.
The Adaptive Server Enterprise NCHAR and NVARCHAR store multibyte national character strings, they are different from SQL Anywhere NCHAR and NVARCHAR. In a multibyte environment, use SQL Anywhere or UltraLite VARCHAR.
The Adaptive Server Enterprise SMALLDATETIME is accurate to the minute. 29.998 seconds or lower are rounded down to the nearest minute; values with 29.999 seconds or higher are rounded up to the nearest minute. SQL Anywhere or UltraLite SMALLDATETIME is accurate to the microsecond. To successfully synchronize, SQL Anywhere or UltraLite SMALLDATETIME must be rounded to the minute. Also, the year must be in the range 1900-2078.
The Adaptive Server Enterprise TIME values are accurate to 1/300 second. The last digit of the fractional second is always one of 0, 3, or 6. Other digit numbers are rounded to one of these three digits, so 0 and 1 round to 0; 2, 3, and 4 round to 3; 5, 6, 7, and 8 round to 6; and 9 rounds to 10.
For download, SQL Anywhere keeps the original values from Adaptive Server Enterprise, but for upload, the values may not be exactly the original values. Conflict resolution may fail. To successfully synchronize TIME, it is recommended that you round the fractional second to 10 milliseconds.
Within Adaptive Server Enterprise, TIMESTAMP is a binary counter that gets incremented with every change to a row. So, each table can only contain one TIMESTAMP column and it does not make sense to synchronize it. If it must be a in synchronization, map it to a VARBINARY(8) data type in SQL Anywhere or UltraLite.
This TIMESTAMP column cannot be explicitly inserted or updated, because it is maintained by the server. Keep this in mind when you are implementing upload scripts for tables that contain such columns.


It's always fun to speculate about what Apple should or could do with its horde of cash, and this video runs through some of the wackier ideas: from building and staffing a lunar base for eight-and-a-half years. to buying a third of the world's drugs and throwing a continent-wide coke party, to enslaving the Rolling Stones and making them play a concert night after night after night for thirty-four years. It leaves the best for last though: making 4,813 baby clones of Steve Jobs.


This week we had a hot lunch for our fun food Friday, I made some pizza bites using tortillas, filled with some tomato pasta sauce, I used my own version and sprinkled some cheese on the top. I added a ham sail using a toothpick for a mast.
I used some cucumber for 'land' and some raisin pebbles.
No products to share really, if you would like a recipe for pizza bites, we have lots pinned on our muffin tin board in Pinterest.


Students, faculty and staff at Reed have always described the honor principle as one of the college's most important and distinctive features. What is the honor principle? How do we define it? How does this definition translate into standards for the day-to-day interactions we have with each other?
Although there is no official definition of the honor principle, community members have sought for years to communicate what the honor principle means in every aspect of life. For a review of how the honor principle governs life at Reed, see the publication, "Living with the honor principle," available in student services. Excerpts from that publication are found in this guidebook.
The honor principle is universal, binding all members of the college community.
The honor principle assumes that members of the community will be honest (not only in their academic work, but in all their behavior), will respect others' rights and persons, will take responsibility for the effect of their behavior on the college as a whole, and will engage in conscientious self-reflection about their words and deeds.
The honor principle itself is not a law or code of conduct and does not take the place of or eliminate the need for legislation; instead, it presupposes voluntary compliance with established rules, regulations, and policies.
The honor principle mandates maximum reliance on individual judgment and conscience and minimal enforcement of rules and regulations.
The honor principle implies that when individuals sincerely believe it necessary to violate a policy or break a rule, or to embarrass, discomfit, or in some way injure others or the community as a whole, they must acknowledge and explain their behavior, and be prepared to accept the judgment of the community's judicial process.
The honor principle depends on a collective concern for its survival: members of the community have to discuss and analyze the meaning of the honor principle and must internalize an obligation to ensure that potentially dishonorable behavior, their own or others', is scrutinized through acknowledgment and discussion, direct confrontation, or the mechanisms of the judicial process.
What the honor principle means to me: Don't lie, cheat, or steal. Don't mock or humiliate someone in a public forum. Think about what you do, before you do it. If it will inconvenience someone, try to find a solution compatible to both of you. Try to make the community work.
The honor council consists of an equal number of students, staff, and faculty members. Under the constitution, the honor council is responsible for educating incoming members of the community about the meaning and importance of responsible and honorable conduct at Reed College. In addition, the council is expected to provide advice to those seeking resolution of disputes and to informally mediate such disputes prior to more formal action.
There can be many kinds of disputes, and they can involve any permutation of students, staff, and faculty. The honor council should be viewed as an important tool for the individual in our community, regardless of whether he or she is claiming that someone has violated Reed's honor principle or whether he or she is being accused of a violation. For a complainant it offers a first step in developing a resolution to the problem. For a respondent it offers an opportunity to respond. To both parties it offers an opportunity to resolve the dispute before the initiation of often difficult and time-consuming formal proceedings.
Procedures for mediation have been enacted by the student senate and the faculty. They are outlined here in their entirety. These procedures apply to staff members except for disputes that arise from their performance of assigned duties.
Most disputes at Reed are and should be settled by direct discussion. In a community that subscribes to ideals of honor, responsibility, and freedom of expression, disagreements and grievances usually can be worked out through sincere and respectful conversation. Sometimes this conversation will take place with third persons present, but more often it just occurs between the parties themselves. When a disagreement or grievance cannot be resolved in this way, the next step should usually be mediation under the auspices of the honor council. To quote the community constitution, "members of the Reed community are bound in good faith to seek informal resolutions of disputes, grievances, and breaches of honor before formal steps are taken."
Mediation occurs whenever persons in conflict agree to have some neutral third party help them understand and resolve their differences. Mediation is entirely voluntary and can be broken off by any disputant at any time. Mediation of some disputes consists of all parties having a chance to state their views and discuss their disagreements in a structured, confidential, and non-judgmental forum. In other cases, successful mediation can result in a written agreement signed by both parties. Sometimes a written agreement will amount to a statement of understanding or a contract between the parties that will not be kept on file by anyone other than the parties themselves. If that agreement involves an explicit acknowledgment that an individual has injured a community member or committed a breach of honor, a copy of the agreement will be transmitted to the chair of the honor council and kept on file in accordance with the procedures of the community constitution, Article IV, Section 9.
Either party to a dispute may ask any member of the honor council to initiate the process of mediation. Before mediation can begin, both parties must agree to engage in mediation, must agree-in writing-to the ground rules of mediation for the case, and must agree on a particular mediator, who typically will be a member of the honor council. Certain ground rules must be agreed to for all mediation sponsored by the honor council: mediation is confidential, unless all parties agree otherwise; mediation is not a "hearing" and does not result in a judgment or finding, though it may result in a written agreement; when disputants belong to different constituencies of the college (student, faculty, staff), each party has a right to have a mediator present from his or her own constituency, in which case the mediators will function as a team; no one may be present at mediation except the disputants and the mediator(s); a confidential report of the progress and outcome of mediation will be transmitted to the chair of the honor council; and if mediation fails, either party retains the right to institute formal proceedings according to the processes described in the "grievance" section below.
Disputes about grades or other formal evaluations of student work and disagreements arising from formal personnel evaluations are not subject to mediation.
In summary, if a member of the community feels wronged in some way, the honor council offers assistance in addressing the problem. All members of the honor council are available to discuss and advise on a strictly confidential basis how to proceed informally or formally with a grievance. The honor council can be an important enfranchising tool for all members of the Reed community, and community members are urged to avail themselves of its services. Comments and suggestions are welcome.
Every member of the community has a right to file a formal complaint against another community member and to have that complaint heard by an appropriate hearing board. Complaints against students must be filed with the chair of the student judicial board; complaints against faculty members must be filed with the dean of the faculty; complaints against staff members must be filed with the director of human resources or the vice president/treasurer. The judicial board code, the rules and procedures of the faculty, and the staff handbook describe the exact procedures for handling and hearing complaints; copies of these documents may be obtained from the dean of student services. Hearing boards at Reed have the responsibility to investigate complaints, determine facts, and recommend action appropriate to the circumstances of the case and the ethos of an educational institution. Hearings are not trials; they do not take the place of legal action, and complainants always have the right to pursue legal action or seek redress from state and federal agencies such as the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.
The judicial board (J-board) hears cases concerning alleged violations by members of the student body of the honor principle, community rules or college policies, rules, regulations or contracts. Generally, the J-board hears cases brought by current or former members of the Reed community against any individual who has allegedly committed a violation while a member of the student body. The final authority in judicial matters is vested in the president of the college.
Students, faculty and staff are asked to participate in the judicial system. For the purposes of the judicial board code, the Reed College community shall be defined as consisting of all currently employed faculty members, staff members, and student body members who are either currently enrolled, registered, on leave, or have made arrangements with the business office to pay tuition and fees.
The J-board consists of nine full-time students. Five J-board members hear each case, with a sixth member acting as a procedural aide. The student senate appoints J-board members once a year and during semesters if needed.
During periods in which the college is not officially in session or the J-board is unable to convene, the president of the college shall appoint a temporary hearing board composed of four members of the appeals board including the chair, who shall serve as chair of the temporary hearing board.
a statement of why informal mediation was unsuccessful or did not occur.
The J-board reserves the right to recommend mediation to parties to a case as specified in Article IV sec. 1 of the community constitution. J-board hearings, and all information regarding honor cases, are strictly confidential. Neither the complainant nor the respondent may contact their own witnesses, nor may they discuss matters pertinent to the case outside of the hearing.
Members of the honor council are available for informal mediation or consultation before an honor case is brought to the J-board.


Now, we will take the linear city model and we will try to make it dynamic.
so that firms are now able to choose also, their locations simultaneously.
get rid of the assumption that firms randomly select their locations.
in the first stage of the game.
So, therefore, we will have a two-stage dynamic game.
that is they choose the distances from the each end a and b.
So, this will be variables that the firms will have to optimize in our game.
the static model that I showed you in the previous segment.
about the distinction of the short run and the long run period.
production factors which are flexible and you can adjust, adjustable.
cannot adjust and that's why this is called the short run period.
So, this is the essence.
you make a choice about where you will be locating.
location is not a short run decision.
you make it in the beginning and then you stick with it for many many periods.
according to the short run needs of the market.
we will start from stage two.
and then we will get back to stage one and we will see how firms will locate.
and therefore, now, what is remaining is to go back to stage one.
to calculate the profit function.
maximize it with respect to location.
Find out which location in this model will maximize our product.
optimal location that this firm has to go into that straight line.
So, I'm looking for the optimal a in other words.
then, you will understand that this cannot be positive.
your calculus classes, this is called the bang-bang solution.
so therefore, we're going to make this expression as close to zero as possible.
has to go as far as it can towards the west.
firm two will locate at the East end.
a result that the model will not know how to treat.
So, hence, what we obtain from this solution is maximal differentiation.
Those firms, they want to be as far from each other as possible.
the two corners to be as far as possible they can.
This happens in this particular model.
or there are other specifications that they will give you no equilibrium at all.
Firms, indeed, they will locate at random by just mixing strategies there.
What does this depend on?
then firms will decide to differentiate at the maximum point.
So, what happens with differentiation?
it's one of the most interesting parts that you will see ever in differentiation.
Is that, there are two opposite effects in our model.
indeed solve this model and we understand how it works.
This is what I showed you before.
then this will make its market share to go up.
if you move towards your opponent and this is the demand effect.
is contradicted by the market power effect.
what happens is that you decrease your market power.
much different location than your opponent.
they have a higher incentive to shop from you so you can increase your price much higher.
which you can exploit more intensively in this case.
So, you have two opposite effect that they contradict each other.
firms tried to move as far from each other as possible.
Therefore, we got maximal differentiation.
firms try to move together.
In reality, we see this effect several times.
they try to locate far apart from each other.
they locate next to each other.
the market power effect and how they contradict each other in each case.
How do we actually understand location to be the differentiation?
There are several other methods of differentiation.
Why do we insist so much with location?
Let me show you something that is really cool.
a model of location, a spatial model.
can be interpreted as the preference space of consumers.
Firm location can be interpreted as the product specification.
And then, consumer location represents individual preferences for each consumer.
the consumer not being able to buy the exact variety that they prefer.
What exactly do all of these mean?
once I tell you the following example.
Imagine, when you go to the store and you want to buy a pair of jeans.
Some people they like their jeans to be totally distressed almost destroyed.
They look in very bad condition like as if they are 100 years old.
that they have no problem at all into how they look.
They look like slacks pants.
you have preferences and you have linear city where jeans can be located in the city.
the genes will be entirely distressed and the other side they will be entirely neat.
these two possible situations of your jeans.
Now, firms will decide where to locate.
you're going to locate yourself in a specific part of the curve also.
you will have a dis-utility.
Then you will have a cost.
but they're not as distressed as I want them."
So, this is something like your transportation cost.
a utility distance, from going from one firm to another.
And this gives you how differentiation works in a location model.
can be interpreted in the space of the variables that we show in this slide.
in the context of differentiation without requiring location to be a factor.
as we said two lectures ago.

St. Vincent at The Andrew J Brady ICON Music Center
Friday, September 3, 2021, 1:45pm
Annie Clark made her recorded debut as St. Vincent in 2007 with Marry Me, and has, in relatively short order, become one of the most innovative and enigmatic presences in modern music.
Each of St. Vincent's four subsequent albums has met with critical acclaim and commercial success eclipsing that of its predecessor. These albums would include Actor (2009), Strange Mercy (2011), and her self-titled fourth album and winner of the 2014 GRAMMY for Best Alternative Album, making her only the second female artist ever to win in that category. In addition to these solo works, St. Vincent joined with David Byrne to record and release the collaborative album Love This Giant in 2012, and performed with Dave Grohl, Krist Novoselic and Pat Smear of Nirvana at the band's 2014 induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, playing the season finale of Saturday Night Live that same year.

Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Is Already Playable From Start to Finish
By Tyler Fischer - June 17, 2019 07:41 am EDT
Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is only five months away, so perhaps it should come as no surprise that the game is already completely playable from start to finish. The news came during E3 this week, where Respawn divulged the game is playable in full. Unfortunately, how much there is to play, still hasn't been revealed, though Respawn claims it will be a meaty and worthwhile experience. In other words, it won't be five hours or anything incredibly short like that.
Of course, every time Respawn is asked about Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order's length, it provides a vague response, and simply claims it won't be very short. If it was long, you'd assume Respawn would be out there bragging with at least a ballpark number. And now that the entire game is playable from start to finish, there's a good chance Respawn knows how long the game will be roughly, so it's odd that it hasn't provided an estimate yet. Maybe it isn't saying anything because the game is indeed pretty short, and it's not looking forward to getting grilled about it by some gamers who prefer games to takes them weeks or months to beat.
That said, we know there's multiple planets to explore in the game, which suggests a somewhat meatier length, even if these planets are more of a linear experience. Alas, all we can do is speculate and patiently wait for Respawn to divulge more.
Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is in development for PS4, Xbox One, and PC. Pre-orders are live now. At the moment of publishing, there's been no word of a Google Stadia port. Meanwhile, Respawn has confirmed there's no plans, at the moment, to bring the game to Nintendo Switch.

Long ago, in ancient Ireland, there was a druid king named Dagda, he had a magical harp. During battle, Dagda's harp was stolen by a group of enemies… Find out if Dagda will get his harp back. This magnetic story is great at home and at mat times.


Robin shoots his last arrow.
As mentioned earlier nothing remain of the priory itself, the final remnants being used to construct Kirklees Hall. The Gate House is the sole remaining building from the priories time and it was the scene for a famous piece of folk lore.
He could no longer rob the rich Norman Noblemen that travelled along the forest roads, and the group of outlaws were starting to disband. Alana Dale had returned to his village with his wife and Will Scarlet had become a poacher once again.
Robin mentioned to Little John that he felt unwell.
"Then I shall come with you Robin, for you look too unwell to travel alonel" The two outlaws began travelling to the Priory hoping that Robin could be healed.
"I am going to cut your arm and let the bad blood leave your body" the Prioress said to Robin.
Robin laid on a bed and rested while the Prioress cut his arm.
The Prioress left the room, and told Little John to leave him alone.
"He needs his rest. Do not go in at all please"
Little John felt uneasy and an hour after the Prioress had gone away he went into the room.
He saw Robin lying on the bed, and the blood dripping from his arm into a bowl. Little John looked at the bowl wondering why the blood was not filling up the bowl.
He picked up the bowl and saw a hole at the bottom. Robin had been tricked - and now he had lost too much blood to leave and was very weak.
"I will burn down this Priory for what has happened" Little John angrily told Robin. "No John", replied Robin, "I have never harmed a woman. I will not start now. Pass me my bow. I will fire an arrow from here out of that window. Where it lands I want you to bury me".
Robin Hood slowly lifted his bow. With the last of his strength he fired his last arrow out of the Priory window and into the wood.
The following morning Little John buried the greatest outlaw Sherwood Forest had ever seen.
Well if you haven't guessed by now, Robin died in the Priory Gatehouse and his last arrow was shot from the upper window there. It must have been rather a good shot for a dying man because it travelled six hundred yards uphill!

History
Adalfrideshusen is first documented in 800 in the records of the monastery at Fulda.

With secularization of the government in 1803, the territory of the present municipality became part of Bavaria. In the Treaty of Pressburg between France and Austria in 1805, the lands of the Bishop of Würzburg were given to Ferdinand III, Grand Duke of Tuscany, and he was made Grand Duke of Würzburg, a new state, as a reward for his support of Napoleon. These lands then again became part of Bavaria in 1814 (this time permanently) at the defeat of Napoleon.

In 1971, Trimberg, Engenthal, and Machtilshausen were added to the municipality, followed by Langendorf in 1978.

Population

Sightseeing
The Trimburg and the palace of Elfershausen are the most important architectural monuments.

Economy

In 1999, there were 71 agricultural businesses in the municipality, with an area of 1430 hectares under cultivation, 1186 ha in fields and 229 ha in pasture.

Transportation
Elfershausen-Trimberg is served by the Franconian Saaletalbahn, which runs modern diesel cars from the Erfurter Bahn (UnterfrankenShuttle). Every half-hour, there is a DBB train to and from Hammelburg.

The PJM Interconnection LLC's capacity and transmission markets may undergo some significant changes if the independent system operator's Members Committee approves manual changes at its Jan. 26 meeting that were advanced Dec. 22 by the Markets and Reliability Committee.
The Markets and Reliability Committee (MRC) approved by a vote of about 88% to 12% a manual revision that would allow any generation capacity resource, demand resource or energy efficiency resource to replace their capacity market commitment "any time prior to the conduct of the Third Incremental Auction for that Delivery year" if the owner of the resource being replaced provides "transparent and verifiable evidence" regarding the previously committed resource.
Reasons for replacing committed capacity include generator deactivation, cancellation of a generation project, delayed in-service date or "permanent departure of load" listed as a demand-response or EE resource at the time of commitment.
The MRC amended the manual revision proposal to include language that PJM would "approve or deny a request for early Replacement Capacity, with input from the Market Monitor, within 15 days of receiving a completed Replacement Capacity request."
Another set of capacity market revisions was presented by Rebecca Carroll, PJM Knowledge Management Center manager, on behalf of the Underperformance Risk Management Senior Task Force (URMSTF) as preparation for the Task Force's hope that the changes would receive endorsement by both the MRC and the PJM Members Committee on Jan. 26, when they meet at different times of the day.
When PJM implemented in 2015 its capacity performance market construct, which provides penalties for committed resources that do not meet their obligations when called upon, certain stakeholders expressed concern that some external resources might be unable to serve load because of seams issues.
The package of changes approved by the URMSTF to address this issue includes the following: PJM must notify existing, external committed resources by Oct. 1 of the year preceding the delivery year whether their pseudo-tie is operationally feasible; if the relevant pseudo-tie is not operationally feasible, the pseudo-tie owner can either upgrade the link or declare the pseudo-tie non-viable for the committed energy; and external resource owners with long-term contracts with PJM load can participate for the life of the asset.
One stakeholder at the Dec. 22 meeting expressed support for the rule for future capacity performance auctions, but said the idea of designating resources committed under the existing capacity performance market rules as "nonviable" under the new package of changes "just seems totally wrong to me ... as a policy precedent."
"To maintain an ex-post disqualification is really bad policy," he said. "It introduces a tremendous amount of risk to anyone moving into the market. ...It seems really unfair to me and likely to result in significant legal issues."
But Joseph Bowring, president of Monitoring Analytics, PJM's independent market monitor, expressed support for the package, as it would be wrong "to allow a bad, inappropriate pseudo-tie to continue" for two more incremental auctions before the new rules go into effect.
The MRC also approved manual changes regarding transmission auction revenue rights (ARRs), specifically those that represent new transmission upgrades or transmission lines that were returned to service from outages. Based on monthly financial transmission rights (FTR) auctions, residual ARRs can receive negative values. Therefore, the changes approved by MRC Dec. 22 were designed to eliminate the allocation of negative residual ARR values.
In essence, the changes require a rerun of the FTR monthly auction with all negatively valued bids removed, and running the monthly residual ARR clearing process without any negatively valued transmission paths which may result in a delay in the settlement process for residual ARRs.
One proposal that the MRC rejected on Thursday would have lightened collateral obligations for financial transmission rights participants to eliminate the "undiversified credit adder" applied to net counterflow portfolios during the financial transmission rights auction clearing process.
Implementing the undiversified credit adder during clearing delays the process and causes "credit uncertainty for members," said PJM credit manager Harold Loomis, who presented the proposal, which had been approved by the PJM Credit Subcommittee on Nov. 4 and endorsed by the PJM Market Implementation Committee on Dec. 14.
The undiversified credit adder came in handy when in December 2007, Tower Research Capital affiliate Power Edge defaulted on its FTR position at a value of what PJM initially estimated as $80 million. When the FTRs finally settled, the amount dropped to about $51 million. All of that would have been covered by collateral requirements under current rules, Loomis said, but only about 16% would have been covered under the proposal submitted to the MRC last week.
In an FTR market analysis for the period January 2014 through February 2016, market participants would have benefited by saving $2 million if the cost of capital was 5% for market participants, but that benefit would have accrued only to market participants with net counterflow portfolios.
Monitoring Analytics' Bowring said, "We don't see any evidence of damage to the market of existing policy."
"We do believe this is a low-probability, high-consequence event, but that's why we have collateral," Bowring said. "We think this is also about assigning savings to a small group, whereas the cost of that [rare] event would be borne by all the members."

Matt Klemchalk July 21, 1978 - April 10, 2014
Matthew E. Klemchalk passed away suddenly on Thursday, April 10th, 2014 at the age of 35. Matt, a Professional Engineer, worked at Railroad Construction for 14 years and was Chief Estimator of the Track Division. He handled all track designs and was responsible for preparing technical proposals. In addition, he was a professor at Stevens Institute of Technology in Hoboken where he had received his Bachelors and Masters degrees. One of his best talents was his ability to teach by example. He loved problem solving and made it look so easy.
At work, Matt kept his office in an order only he understood but he was always able to pull out the one piece of paper or drawing that would immediately clarify any question we would barrage him with daily. He was one of those people always willing to help, never too busy to give his input, make a suggestion or fix a problem. He had an innate ability to make each person feel important. He treated everyone with respect and exhibited the virtues of kindness, patience and humility every day of his life.
Matt was a lifelong train enthusiast who lived and breathed the railroad – from model trains to saving and restoring antique train cars. His knowledge of railroad facts was nothing short of genius. If you wanted to take a train almost anywhere he is the one you would ask. Given the choice of taking a train or flying, he would always choose enjoying a ride on the rails.
In December 2013 Matt became the first recipient of the Railroad Construction Family of Companies Co-Worker of the Year award, given to "an individual who exemplifies a willingness to help others and a sense of teamwork". Beginning in 2014, the award will be renamed in Matt's honor.
Matt was a daily source of strength for his family, friends and co-workers and was the go to person for so many. He was a mentor, antique collector, model railroader, caboose rebuilder, avid pianist and an amateur badminton player and was one of the nicest, kindest, gentlest, most helpful people any of us has ever known. What a blessing Matt's life has been and what a role model he is for each of us to emulate. We lost a very good friend who will never be replaced and he will remain in our hearts forever. We love you Matt!
Gary Arendt
Gary Francis Arendt passed away May 10, 2014 at home after a courageous battle against cancer. For the last 10 years Gary was a warehouseman for Railroad Construction in Edison, NJ. He enjoyed fishing and recently developed a new hobby of baking: he loved bringing his cakes, cookies and brownies to the "crew" at work. In his free time he watched the History Channel and prided himself on his knowledge of historical facts. Gary also had a natural love for all animals and helped feed and care for a colony of stray cats near the warehouse. We will cherish his memory and mourn his loss. We will miss you Gary.
Wayne Bundy
Wayne Bundy passed away on January 7th, 2013. A member of Railroad Construction's track division for 18 years, Wayne was commonly known as "Sammy's Right Hand Man". He worked on many projects as head of landside switch maintenance inspection and performed tamping and welding of switch points and frogs. Most of his days were spent working at Earle Naval Base. Many of Wayne's co-workers remember lively conversations with this devoted Cowboys fan about football, especially if they dared to be a Giants fan. He enjoyed hunting, fishing and traveling with his family. Wayne was known as a hard and reliable worker, a friend and a treasured family member to those at home and here at RCC. He will never be forgotten.
Nefftali Conception, Sr.
Nefftali Concepcion, Sr., better known as "Tali", passed away on October 19, 2012. He began working with Railroad Construction in 1991 and continued with RCC as a foreman for 20 years. His hard work and quick problem solving made him an asset, as Tali quickly became known as the "The Wizard". Co-workers fondly reminisce about the stories he liked to tell. A favorite of theirs was the time there was a water main break on the jobsite and everyone got soaked. They all had a good laugh as one by one their Carhartt jackets froze solid on the cold winter day. Tali had a kind, generous nature and tried to help anyone who needed it. He was a loving father and husband who enjoyed spending time outdoors, listening to music, fishing and scuba diving. Tali, you will truly be missed.

Kaminsky Loses Bruising Split Decision
Super middleweight David Kaminsky lost a bloody six-round battle to Clay Collard tonight inside "The Bubble" at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada tonight. Collard, an awkward pressure fighter, outworked the more skilled southpaw.
Both fighters established their game plans in the opening round. Collard rushed forward with his left leg often crossing in front of his right. He fired punches without concern for proper technique or aesthetics. Meanwhile, Kaminsky kept his hands down, aspiring to showcase his blazing hand speed. Even when the 19 year old Israeli-native landed his quick counters, Collard brushed them off and kept charging. Late in the round, Collard threw a straight right, and the wrist of the glove scratched the skin near Kaminsky's left eye drawing blood in the process.
In the second, Kaminsky managed to time Collard's rushes a bit better and Clay's nose oozed out blood. It was a close round as Kaminsky's hard blows may have overtaken Collard's sheer work-rate. Collard inexplicably stayed on the outside for much of the third round, and Kaminsky shrewdly began attacking the body of the 27 year old from Utah.
Collard snatched the fight back in the fourth. His pressure was relentless, and he managed to punctuate many of his unorthodox combinations with his hard skull. As a result, Kaminsky's face looked like that of an automobile accident victim. Referee Vic Drakulich should have warned Collard about the butts. Kaminsky managed to land an effective body shot in the round, but if an indomitable will determined success, Collard would be a world champion. The fifth and sixth rounds were more of the same. Kaminsky slipped in a nice body shot here and there and threw eye-catching head punches, but Collard's offense was unceasing.
Two judges saw the fight 58-56 for Clay Collard while one judge saw it Kaminsky's way by the same score. The JBB scored the bout 58-56 for Collard.
The JBB mentioned that this was a potential trap fight for Kaminsky, who falls to 6-1 with 3 KOs. Collard, who is now 7-2-3 with two KOs, has everything in an opponent a young fighter should avoid. He is a winning MMA veteran who fought in the UFC; he is very awkward, very tough, and unrelenting; and he has beaten or drawn with a number of prospects, including southpaws.
This loss could be a turning point in David's career. The fear is that the loss could damage his confidence. In reality, it was just the wrong fight for him, and it presents an opportunity to learn. Making weight appeared to be an issue, understandable considering the limitations created by COVID-19. In the ring, David needed to move subtly to either side when Collard rushed in, instead of trying to time him or moving straight back. At that point, Collard would be out of position and Kaminsky could land with out worrying about Collard's head. Kaminsky also started his body attack too late in the fight. Collard is now 6-1 in his last seven fights; that lone loss was to Olympic medalist Bektemir Melikuziev, a southpaw who established center ring early and then finished Collard with a body attack in the fourth round. Kaminsky seemed to try to follow Melikuziev's path, but once it wasn't working in the first round, he needed to shift his strategy.
In defeat Kaminsky would do well to remember something an old Jewish trainer, Whitey Bimstein, once said, "Show me an undefeated fighter and I'll show a guy who's never fought anybody." Kaminsky now has fought someone.
