Where artists can turn for help

In 2017, musician Lydia Cole released an album, toured the country and moved to Berlin. Then the chest pains started.
Ahead of NZ-Music T-Shirt Day this Friday, Dominic Hoey talks to singer/songwriter Lydia Cole about burnout, panic attacks and the charity that turned everything around.
Over the years, I've come up against the same misconception about artists. That it's an easy life, with days spent lying around waiting for the muse to strike, travelling, and occasionally making the odd bit of art.
But the reality for most of the artists I know is very different. It involves financial insecurity, having to be your own publicist, booking agent and manager, and more often than not, working a full-time job. Among all of this, you still need to find time to actually make art.
It's not surprising that mental health issues like anxiety, depression and exhaustion are common.
Auckland musician Lydia Cole recently took to social media to share her experience of burnout, and how an organisation called MusicHelps provided her with free therapy, which led to her making some big changes in her life.
Back in 2017, it seemed like things were on track for Lydia. She'd released an album and toured New Zealand before making the move to Berlin. Any one of these events would have been a giant undertaking on their own, and Lydia soon found herself feeling overwhelmed.
"I arrived in Berlin exhausted, and had to muster the energy to begin life in what is notoriously a 'hard city'. I didn't speak German and I'd never even been to Europe before," she says. But instead of taking a break, Lydia did what artists commonly do, and kept pushing. It was after another successful New Zealand tour that the panic attacks started.
"A couple of months after returning to Berlin I started getting frequent chest pain and panic attacks, which soon became daily. It took about two more months before I realised it was burnout."
Her doctor in Berlin told her she was physically healthy and suggested seeing a therapist. After searching and being unable to find anyone suitable in Berlin, Lydia reached out to MusicHelps. The organisation was set up in 2012 to respond to the mental health crisis affecting musicians in New Zealand. As well as offering free therapy sessions, they support initiatives that bring music into spaces like hospices, and connect at-risk and vulnerable people with music. Lydia was soon connected with a therapist back in New Zealand, who advised Lydia to make some drastic changes in her life
"I immediately canceled a string of shows and then booked a flight back to New Zealand," Lydia says. "Since then I've been learning to listen more closely to my body, and to take it easy."
Lydia is now preparing to return home to New Zealand where she plans to spend some time recuperating in her parents spare room, a privilege she acknowledges a lot of artists in her position don't have. "Things have felt really desperate for me in recent months yet I know there are others out there dealing with the same shit who don't have that safety net."
"Things have felt really desperate for me in recent months yet I know there are others out there dealing with the same shit who don't have that safety net."
With charities like MusicHelps, along with the Labour government allocating more money to Creative New Zealand, and talking about bringing back the Pace Scheme, perhaps there's a chance things may improve somewhat for artists in Aotearoa. But Lydia feels that our population and geography make it tricky.
"The population is small so artists can't always be touring. All of my friends in music make a living by doing some secondary work, whether it's related to music or not." But she does feel that it's easier to be a musician here in 2019.
"There is a pride in our music industry that wasn't there 20 years ago. You used to be able to pick out the low budget local music videos from the slick overseas ones on TV. Now we are quicker to celebrate our artists, and I'm sure that's at least partly due to initiatives such as NZ Music Month."
Another important initiative for Aotearoa's artists is NZ Music T-Shirt Day, a way to spread awareness and raise funds for MusicHelps. On November 8th, people are encouraged to make a donation and wear their favourite t-shirt by a New Zealand musician, and share photos on social media.
"There is a pride in our music industry that wasn't there 20 years ago."
MusicHelps and JB Hifi have even produced some limited edition shirts with all the processed going to the charity. Understandably, Lydia is passionate about getting behind the fundraiser.
"The support I've received has been life-changing, and I don't want anyone to miss the memo on this."
Lydia Cole is one of many musicians raising money for MusicHelps as part of NZ Music T-Shirt Day. Visit her campaign here.

Intense Manoeuvres in the Dark: Preoccupations im Interview
Von Fichon
We're definitely not the kind of band that would release a bunch of singles.
Namen sind doch nicht Schall und Rauch – zumindest, wenn deine Band den Namen einer brutalen Gruppierung von Aufständischen trägt. Die Band, die vormals als Viet Cong auftrat und mit ihrem Debüt eines der besten Alben des letzten Jahres veröffentlichte, musste sich deshalb nach immer lauteren Empörungen umbenennen. Nun sind sie als Preoccupations unterwegs und haben ein zweites Album am Start – ihr zweites "self-titled", ganz zur Freude des Gitarristen Scott Munro. Wir haben uns mit Scott am Telefon über den neuen Sound der Kanadier und die Vorzüge von Schallplatten und Montreal unterhalten.
During the past year, you received a lot of negative media attention for having a band name that offended a lot of people. Has this controversy and your name change influenced your new music in any way?
Not consciously, I guess. Although I'm sure that it has to have, ultimately. I can't imagine that if this year had gone without that, if we had had a different name originally and it hadn't gone through the ringer, then I feel like we maybe would have made a different record. But I'm not sure. You can never tell. Honestly, I sort of enjoyed the fact that it was a clean slate for the record. We got to do whatever we wanted to do, because it didn't necessarily have to be the same band anymore. Like Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.
Why then did you decide to call yourself Preoccupations? The name suggests the opposite of a clean slate to me.
We chose that name for a few different reasons. We were basically taking suggestions for names from anyone. We got suggestions from the protesters, we got a bunch of suggestions from the internet. But then our friend Chad VanGaalen sent us a bunch of different lists of names. Basically we just narrowed it down to five of those names that were our favourites. And then out of those five, Preoccupations was the only one that wasn't taken already. But I do like the fact that it can be read a few different ways, depending on how you want to see it.
Is the idea of having a clean slate also the reason why you gave the album the same name as the band?
I really do like self-titled albums a lot, so it was kind of exciting to have another chance to have a self-titled album. To the point that we even thought about just changing our band name again for the next record. And then just keep releasing self-titled records under a different band name every time, which I would be fully into.
While your lyrics are still marked by insecurity, the music on Preoccupations sounds less harsh, less physically heavy but rather mentally so. How do you explain that?
We all had been in bands that were guitar bands before [Preoccupations], so it was nice to be able to experiment with some different sounds and try playing some more keyboards. But then we're all still into having it be intense or whatever you want to call it. I think we were trying to create a similar atmosphere but with some different sounds. Because of that, the record is not as harsh in the same way that the first full-length was. There's not really any guitar noise stuff on it, but we're all still into the same dark sounds and imagery.
You still recognise that it's the same band that made Cassette and Viet Cong, though.
Totally. The singing plays into that a lot, I'm sure. The vocals always make it different, and it's the same four of us making the music, so because of that it will come out a certain way. What everybody brings to the project is what makes it sound the way it does, more so than whether there are keyboards on it or guitars. The ideas are still coming from the same place.
Have you listened to a lot of New Wave while you were making the new album?
Oh yeah. Orchestral Manoeuvres In the Dark gets rocked a lot in the van, and we're all New Order fans of course. I love New Wave, there's lots of great bands. At least half of my favourite records are from the late seventies or the early eighties. There's a bunch of other good records that were made, but a lot of my favourite ones, at least currently, come from that era.
You ended Viet Cong with an outright massive song called "Death". On Preoccupations, the eleven minute song is placed right in the middle of the album. Is that meant as a provocation?
"Death" was clearly the closer on that first record. There was no other song to finish the record with but "Death". And we've still been closing off our set with that song, mostly. Whereas "Memory", it didn't have the "closing the record" element. We worked on it for actually quite a long time. Basically every studio that we were in for this record, we worked on "Memory" in some way or another. It's nice to close the A-side, but as far as the end of the actual record goes, I think that "Fever" ultimately worked better. Plus that was also the last song that we recorded and we went into recording it knowing that that was the missing piece of the record. We had most of the record sequenced, but we needed the song to end it.
Then there are "Sense" and "Forbidden", two songs that seem more like sketches…
They're both really old recordings. I think "Sense" might even date back to 2012 or 2013. "Sense" was a keyboard thing that I had from when we did our first EP. It's actually the secret track on the EP, after "Select Your Drone" it goes into "Sense" played only on keyboards. We had a bunch of versions of that one and during the mixing process we came back to it and realised that they would go really well [with the rest of the album].
"Forbidden" was always sort of the intro to something else. We had two different times where what it was the intro to became another song. Pieces of what became "Zodiac" were in the end of "Forbidden" at some point or another. Maybe after having a little bit of time away from it as a song, we were more able to just take it for what it was. Because it is an interesting little bit. It never turned into a song beyond that. Also, the record needed a breather around that time, too, a couple little songs that weren't quite as intense.
You are talking a lot about sequencing. Is the two-sided vinyl format your model for when you are making an album?
Oh yeah, absolutely. That's my personal favourite medium for listening to music and so I definitely do think of it in that sense. You need to have your sides even. Plus I think that makes for a good record, regardless of whether it comes out on CD or digitally. We're definitely not the kind of band that would release a bunch of singles, you know? All my favourite records are albums. There's a few bands that I like singles of, but the stuff that I'm really passionate about are things that have an arc throughout them. Any record I've made, I've always been thinking of it in terms of what the sides were going to be.
A lot of interesting dark bands are coming out of Montreal or Toronto. Is there a lot going on in Calgary too or do you sometimes consider moving to a bigger city?
Funny that you should mention that. Matt has actually already moved to Montreal, his girlfriend lives there now. Mike has also been living in Toronto. We've scattered all over the country for the moment. I am currently still living in Calgary. Honestly, the Calgary music scene is pretty good. There's a bunch of venues there, there's a bunch of great bands. But I think most of the musicians that I'm friends with are at least somewhat transient. Some of my friends will live in Victoria for the winter, because it's really beautiful there, and then go and live in Montreal for the summer. Have a city experience for a part of the year and a smaller town vibe on the west coast for the winter.
I don't know if it necessarily matters. It is nice to be in a big city for a while, though, because there are just things that you get out of a city, the cultural hub of the city. In Calgary, you don't get all the touring bands. Every band that tours in Canada plays in Vancouver, Toronto and Montreal. If you want to see good bands all the time, then those are better cities to live in than in Calgary. But at the same time, if you want to have a studio space and work like crazy through a whole winter, then Calgary is a great city to live in, because there is nothing really to distract you from doing that. In Toronto, you could go to a great show pretty much every day of the week or go to some kind of party. There is always something going on, whereas in Calgary, there is nothing going on except for what you put on.
What would a perfect Friday night look like to you?
Maybe just eat a nice dinner and then get drunk by a river somewhere. Smoke a joint and watch a movie. Or play synthesizer. I like that actually, that might be my actual answer: smoke a joint and play some synthesizer.
Preoccupations is out 16/09 on Jagjaguwar/Cargo Records.

Q: Proof about trees
Show that in any tree there exists a node such that, if we remove this
  node and the edges adjacent to it, we will obtain trees which have at
  most n/2 nodes (the removed node is not counted anymore).

I've been thinking for a proof to that but couldn't come up with something. Any ideas?

A: Orient all edges towards the larger of the two subtrees obtained if one would remove the edge (if the two subtrees have equal size toss a coin). Now starting in an arbitrary node follow some edge in the oriented direction until this is no longer possible, in other words until all edges of the current node point towards it (it is obvious this terminates, because a tree has no circuits). Then it is obvious that removing all those edges and the current node cannot leave any subtree of size exceeding $n/2$.

Story blasts homer, but NL loses sixth straight All-Star Game to AL sluggers
By MHS Staff -
Jul 17, 2018; Washington, DC, USA; National League infielder Trevor Story of the Colorado Rockies (27) runs the bases after hitting a home run during the seventh inning against the American League in the 2018 MLB All Star Game at Nationals Ballpark. Mandatory Credit: Geoff Burke-USA TODAY Sports
Trevor Story's solo home run in the seventh inning of Tuesday's All-Star Game tied the contest at 2-2… and what was a baseball game turned into something like a pinball machine from there on.
The Rockies' shortstop, in his first at-bat of his first All-Star Game, blasted a Charlie Morton pitch into the left-field bleachers at Nationals Park in Washington. Story, who finished the game 1-for-2 with that home run and a strikeout in the ninth inning, also finished off the Rockies' first half of the season in style with a game-winning, walk-off home run on Sunday over the visiting Seattle Mariners.
His home run was the third hit by a Rockies player in an All-Star Game, following Matt Holliday in 2008 and Todd Helton in 2003.

— Colorado Rockies (@Rockies) July 18, 2018
Story, whose 68 RBI at the break set a new National League record for shortstops, fared better than the Rockies' other two All-Stars — outfielder Charlie Blackmon (0-for-3, K) and starting third baseman Nolan Arenado (0-for-2, BB, K).
The game featured 10 home runs, shattering the old All-Star Game record of six, and 25 combined strikeouts, a near-perfect encapsulation of what's made baseball both thrilling and banal in 2018.
Story, Arenado, Blackmon and the rest of the Rockies (51-45) will be back in action on Friday, when they travel to Arizona to take on the second-place Diamondbacks in a three-game set.

2017 is looking better already: Ben Affleck might not make a standalone Batman movie
Image source: Bros/DC Comics/REX/Shutterstock
January 2nd, 2017 at 3:09 PM
From a critical perspective, the DC movie universe is off to a rocky start. After Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice was raked over the coals in March, Suicide Squad was expected the turn things around at the end of the summer. The 26% fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes reveals that it didn't quite succeed.
Nevertheless, comic book movie fans weren't willing to give up on DC quite yet. They're still holding out hope that Wonder Woman and Ben Affleck's solo Batman movie can reenergize the DCEU, but based on a new interview with Affleck, the existence of the latter film appears to be anything but assured.
Back in October, Affleck said that his solo Batman movie (which he planned to write and direct) would be called The Batman (providing he didn't change it). A week prior, he hinted that Deathstroke would be the main villain of the movie. While neither Affleck nor DC even made any announcements regarding a potential release date, the project seemed to be coming together relatively smoothly, with Affleck saying as much to Variety in an interview just two weeks ago. But now he can't keep his story straight.
Speaking with The Guardian in an interview published on January 1st, Affleck said the following when asked about The Batman, casting doubt on whether or not he'll direct the film — or whether he'll be involved with it in any capacity:
"That's the idea. But it's not a set thing and there's no script. If it doesn't come together in a way I think is really great I'm not going to do it."
Two weeks after telling Variety that he and his crew were "finishing up a script," Affleck now says that there's "no script." Maybe the writing process hit a snag and Affleck is venting his frustration about the current state of the script. Or maybe he's just trying to manage expectations before fans get too worked up.
Either way, we'll be keeping a close eye on the project and Affleck's future comments.

For as long as I can remember, I've always loved Mexican food. Good chips and salsa is definitely a weakness for me, no matter how much junk food I gave up, I don't think I could give up chips and salsa. When I don't know what to make for dinner and I need something fast, we inevitably have tacos. If I'm in a bad mood, my husband often suggests we go out for Mexican and I start to feel better. So it should come as no surprise that my experimenting often leads to Mexican-inspired flavors. I love adding spicy peppers, garlic, lime juice, cilantro, cumin, and other Mexican flavors to dishes.
I love ordering tequila lime fajitas when we go out to dinner so I thought I would make my own at home. Of course I decided this while inviting friends over for dinner when walking around the grocery store at 4:30 pm on a Saturday. So I picked up some chicken, some garlic, limes, and a couple of jalapeno peppers. We didn't end up making it into fajitas that night but ate it with a salad and some grilled potatoes but I turned the leftover chicken into fajitas a couple nights later and it was fantastic with a little avocado, grilled bell peppers and onions and warm tortillas. You're going to want to make extra so you have leftovers of this - grill out on Sunday, make double and you're 90% done with a weeknight dinner.
One more thing while I'm talking about chicken - I'm not sure about your grocery store, but whenever I buy boneless, skinless chicken breasts, the pieces are always huge. I generally remove the tender and butterfly each breast, so I have 2-3 pieces from each one. They cook up much faster and more evenly on the grill, so you don't end up with dried out chicken waiting on the middle to be done. It also helps make it easier to gauge one serving which is 3-4 ounces rather than a whole chicken breast.
In a large ziploc freezer bag, combine all ingredients, except chicken. Shake to combine. Add chicken, making sure to distribute marinade over the chicken. Refrigerate about 1 hour.
Preheat grill to medium heat. While grill heats, remove chicken from refrigerator and let stand at room temperature about 15 minutes. Spray grill with grilling spray or rub lightly with vegetable oil to prevent sticking. Add chicken and grill about 5 minutes on first side. Turn chicken and grill about 5 minutes more until cooked through. If chicken is sticking when you try to turn it the first time, give it another minute or so, it probably just isnt ready. Once cooked through, remove to a plate, cover tightly with foil and let stand for about 10 minutes so juices re-distribute.
Serve as is or use for fajitas, in enchiladas, tacos, chicken rollups or for sandwiches or salads.
This sounds delicious, I am always looking for some new fun chicken recipes.


At LDS, we envision and deliver business solutions: solutions that bring real strategic business value inside the enterprise at some of the largest global companies. This requires a holistic perspective to the management of solution efforts, a management approach that cares for and balances the relationship of business value, solution delivery and sustainable operations to achieve lasting results.
LDS firmly believes that core project management methods need to be augmented and driven by programs focused on a broader view of business solutions. The usual focus on balancing scope, cost and time to achieve quality still has validity, but is insufficient to represent the broader set of concerns and relationships that bring business value, sustainability and solution evolution over time.
Business – requires an understanding of business strategy, the business models that encapsulate relevant organization, program and people goals as well as particular attention to stakeholder management. To support resulting impacts from the introduction of the solution (i.e., change), we ensure business sponsors and stakeholders understand, agree to, and support the business solution. We do this by ensuring stakeholders receive support for business solution socialization and decision-making.
Operations – considers and factors operational impact throughout the process to avoid crippling issues with sustainability and maintainability. It probably goes without saying, but the value from business solutions can be greatly eroded when they cannot be reliably sustained.
Solutions – requires insightful project leadership throughout the process, based on complexities of the solution concepts, to ensure the solution is comprehensive and rational. Promoting design thinking, managing teams of diverse experts, and engaging business, operations and IT stakeholders are some of the key concerns to address in order for solutions to be both innovative and rational. These days, business solutions inside the enterprise have an ever increasing set of expectations for a consumer-grade experience, and need to work within the enterprise ecosystem. Additionally, managing a solutions roadmap to realize business value over time requires we pay particular attention to an agreed path forward.

It's been all thunders storms here in Charlottesville. The kind that turn the sky blue-grey and get the streets crackling with electricity. The kind that turn creeks into rivers. The kind that make me open my windows, light candles. The kind that make me think of a cool Autumn right around the corner.
I feel really thankful for the rain. It almost feels like a break in time, an extra breath. I've been using the cloudy days as respite, reading poetry and journaling. Quietly exploring recipe concepts in my softly-lit kitchen.
This Summer has been reminding me about the important of simplicity. The joy in simple pleasures with Logan by my side. Eating cherries together by a lake. Going for an evening walk around the city. Eating ice cream on the front stoop.
So too, all of the recipes coming to mind lately are about highlighting the beauty of simple flavors. Peanut butter ice cream with cocktail cherries. Chilled melon soup with basil oil.
Desserts are stripped of their process. Everything is ice cream, pie, popsicles, panna cotta.
Dinners ate all about incorporating whatever fresh veg I've collected from the garden our picked up at the farmers market. Tomatoes are in everything and I'm loving it.
And smoothies? I'm sticking with the classics. It's nice cream or bust in the Byrd house.
For today's Smoothie Sunday I'm sharing this Spirulina Banana Mango Smoothie Bowl! The tropical fruits marry with the creamy, nutty fats to completely zero-out the otherwise oceanic flavor of the spirulina. You can't even taste it. I added some goji berries for a vitamin c boost -- plus I like the tanginess they add to this creamy bowl.
My go-to toppings for this Spirulina Banana Mango Smoothie Bowl are loads of fresh blackberries and chia. But, seeing that it's mid-Summer, I can't get enough of the juicy local blackberries I've been getting at the farmers market. Use the juiciest, sweetest berries you can find as a topping for this!
p.s. those are "tickweed" flowers which are technically edible but they're bitter as hell. Just fyi.
Optional: add 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract as you like, if you're into that.
Combine everything except for the toppings in the bowl of a high powered blender. Blend, scraping down the sides of the bowl as you need to get everything smoothly blended. It will be thick like soft-serve ice cream. Top with blackberries, chia and edible flowers!


The students who gathered around my car and followed me to my classroom were enrolled in an alternative high school. Their ages ranged from 15 to 21. The educators who referred them to our school considered them "at risk." I considered them courageous. Some of my students, in just 16 short years of life, had faced challenges and difficulties that I would never face. For some, school was safer than their homes and neighborhoods. For others, school was the place where they ate a full meal and were warmly greeted by an adult every day. Others learned how to parent their children. Everyone received counseling, social services, and medical care.
The previous day I had attended a workshop. In preparation for my absence, my students and I made a plan so they could be successful in my absence. I expected their best behavior while I was gone. I also expected them to go easy on the substitute and treat her like they would treat me—respectfully. The last time I was absent, my students snookered the substitute. They told him that I let them play their personal CDs in class —which was true. Unfortunately, they omitted the detail that I did not allow CDs that contained profanity. The class was listening to comedian Andrew Dice Clay, who spews the F-word, when the principal walked into the room. That substitute was never allowed on campus again, and the CD player was silent in class for several weeks.
The Church Ladies kept to themselves. They always entered class together, sat together, and left together. Although they were 17 and 18 years old, they often wore flower print dresses with lace collars, more like grandmothers than teenagers. It was clear to most of us—students and staff—that they were emotionally fragile. For example, Jenny panicked the day she scratched a mole on her face and it began to bleed. It was her favorite mole and she was afraid it would fall off. When Carly became anxious about something, she gouged and scratched her arms with her fingernails until they bled. Ruthie did not make eye contact with anyone.
In my room, their classmates demonstrated a daily consideration and kindness to these young women. In a class where students were not assigned seats, they always arrived to find the three seats they preferred vacant. This was true even when they were the last to arrive.
For more than 20 years, Christy Stevens taught in rural and urban schools, and an alternative high school. She currently teaches at Linn-Benton Community College in Albany, Oregon, in the Education/Child and Family Studies Department. Student names have been changed.

There have been 10 more deaths of COVID-19 positive patients. However, their deaths have been classified as non-COVID deaths by their doctors. Doctors have determined that these deaths were caused by serious pre-existing medical conditions and not COVID-19.
There have now been 146 deaths due to COVID-19 in Fiji, with 144 of these deaths during the outbreak that started in April this year. We also have recorded 61 COVID-19 positive patients who died from the serious medical conditions that they had before they contracted COVID-19; these are not classified as COVID-19 deaths.
There have been 317 new recoveries reported since the last update, which means that there are now 15,686 active cases. There have been 20,373 cases during the outbreak that started in April 2021. We have recorded a total of 20,443 cases in Fiji since the first case was reported in March 2020, with 4,550 recoveries.
There are 6 more deaths currently under investigation. These will be discussed once investigations (including test results) and classifications are complete.
Screening Update
A total of 6,049 individuals were screened and 1,770 swabbed at our stationary screening clinics in the last 24 hours, bringing our cumulative total to 336,689 individuals screened and 60,009 swabbed to date. Our mobile screening teams screened a total of 3,659 individuals and swabbed 511 in the last 24 hours. This brings our cumulative total to 726,481 individuals screened and 63,071 swabbed by our mobile teams to date.
A total of 236,584 samples have been tested since this outbreak started in April 2021, with 279,445 tested since testing began in March 2020. 3612 tests have been reported for July 19th. The national 7-day daily test average is 3837 tests per day or 4.3 tests per 1,000 population. The national 7-day average daily test positivity is 27.5%.
As of the 20th July 410,495 adults in Fiji have received their first dose of the vaccine and 83,732 have received their second doses. This means that 70% of the target population have received at least one dose and 14.3% are now fully vaccinated nationwide.
Fijians can check the Ministry's vaccine dashboard to find real-time data on first-dose and second-dose numbers at the national, divisional and sub-divisional levels. You can access the live dashboard at http://bit.ly/3h2JfCZ
Epidemic Outlook
The 7-day average of new cases per day is 1111 cases per day or 1256 cases per million population per day. With the high numbers of new daily cases we are also seeing increasing cases of severe disease and deaths.
Advice to the public
COVID-19 infections are widespread across the Suva-Nausori containment zone. This means that if you develop any of the symptoms of COVID-19 you should assume you have COVID-19 and isolate yourself at home. Do not wait for a positive test result to self isolate. Isolating yourself will help to stop the spread of COVID-19 to others.
The symptoms of COVID-19 include any of the following:
Cough, runny nose, nasal congestion, sneezing, fatigue/extreme tiredness, loss of taste or smell, headache, aches and pains, sore throat, fever, diarrhoea, red eyes, skin rash.
If you have any of these symptoms please:
1) Immediately ISOLATE from others including other members of your household. Stay at home. And, as much as possible, maintain a physical distance of 2m between yourself and other members of your household, and wear a mask that covers your nose and mouth.
2.) Remain in home isolation for 14 days, drink plenty of fluids, and take paracetamol for pain and fever.
3.) Keep watch for severe COVID-19 symptoms
Severe COVID-19 is a medical emergency, and a delay in receiving appropriate medical treatment reduces your chance of recovering from the disease. You do not need to have a positive test result to watch out for these symptoms. We need all Fijians to know the severe symptoms of COVID-19, which include the following:
Persistent pain or pressure in the chest
Severe headache for a few days
New confusion, inability to wake or stay awake
Pale, gray, or blue-coloured skin, lips or nail beds
In the Suva-Nausori Containment zone we have identified health facilities specifically designated to receive people with symptoms of severe COVID-19. If you or a loved one live in the Suva-Nausori Containment Zone and have any of these severe symptoms please go immediately to the designated health facilities listed below.
– Colonial War Memorial Hospital (CWMH)
– FEMAT Hospital, Vodafone Arena
Individuals in Nausori with severe symptoms should go to:
– Nausori Health Centre
-Wainibokasi Hospital
Call 165 if you are unable to travel to a medical facility.

TE Still In The Mix?
Welcome to AtlantaFalcons.com managing editor Jay Adams' blog-style posts where Jay JAWS about the Falcons. JAWS, of course, stands for Jay Adams Writes Stuff, which means all the Falcons news and information that slips through the cracks — and some that doesn't — can be found right here in these posts
If you've been following along with our weekly Mock Monitor, you may have noticed an absence lately of a particular name that was somewhat intriguing a month ago.
Notre Dame tight end Kyle Rudolph was projected by one of our sampled mocks to be the Falcons' pick at the No. 27 spot last month, but that has since changed as prognosticators have focused more on defensive end, offensive tackle or cornerback for Atlanta in the first round.
But Rotoworld.com's Evan Silva tweeted some comments from NFL Network's Mike Mayock on Wednesday that suggest Rudolph may still very well be a strong option for the Falcons in the first round.
Here's Silva's tweet:
Before you totally freak out, think about how this works. I've said it a million times: There are so many possible scenarios that can occur before the Falcons go on the clock at No. 27. That's one of the downfalls of picking so late, so the guys in the war room will be prepared for anything.
Let's say all the defensive linemen the Falcons have targeted are off the board and maybe one or two wide receivers are still there, but they're sure they will still be around when the Falcons pick in the second round at No. 59 overall. There sits Rudolph, a big, strong, pass-catching tight end with loads of potential.
Granted, tight end isn't an immediate need with veteran Tony Gonzalez deciding to come back for at least one more season, but you have to assume at 35 years old that the seasons left for him are minimal. Gonzalez has been an integral part of the offense since he was brought in and he's been one of Matt Ryan's favorite targets.
Therefore, when Gonzalez does decide to hang up the cleats, you want to have another tight end that can be as productive waiting in the wings for his chance. That's where Rudolph makes a lot of sense.
If the Falcons do end up taking Rudolph, I urge those of you who are unsure about such a pick to look at the big picture. Think about two or three years from now. Yes, there are positions that can use some help right now, but the great thing about this year's draft class is that the positions of need are awfully, awfully deep. Great value and talent can be had in the second, third and fourth rounds.
Rudolph is easily the best available tight end in the draft this year and could be an incredible weapon for Ryan down the line. Think Jason Witten for Tony Romo or Owen Daniels for Matt Schaub.
If it comes down to Rudolph, you don't solve an immediate need, but you satisfy an area that will eventually become an immediate need. By doing that, you can pick for luxury down the line.
So, if this is the pick, I would totally understand the reasoning behind it. But I can also see the other side of it.
The Falcons have never drafted a tight end in the first round in the history of the franchise. Even an extremely productive tight end doesn't always get close to wide receiver numbers in the box score. Plus, with Gonzalez coming back for the 2011 season, Rudolph doesn't get much of a chance to contribute right away.
This, probably more than any other, would be a polarizing scenario for Falcons fans to face. You either love it or you hate it.
So tell us. Vote below.

Florida removes Airbnb from blacklist after West Bank settlements ban overturned
Marcy Oster
(JTA) — Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis announced that he would remove Airbnb from the state's blacklist of companies that boycott Israel.
The state suspended the use of Airbnb for state-paid travel and had considered preventing its pension fund from investing in the firm when it goes public, reportedly by 2020, after it announced in November 2018 that it would remove listings of rooms and homes for rent in West Bank Jewish settlements.
Airbnb said at the time that it consulted with experts to learn about the historical disputes in the region to decide whether it should be doing business in "the occupied territories."
DeSantis and his Cabinet in January voted to place the company on the list of scrutinized companies following a recommendation by the state Board of Administration.
The company announced in April that it would keep the West Bank listings and donate any profits from them to humanitarian groups. The decision appears to be part of settlements between Airbnb and two groups of American Jewish plaintiffs who had sued the company.
"As Governor, I have an obligation to oppose policies that unfairly target Israel. Once @Airbnb ended their discriminatory policy toward Israel, we decided to remove them from the @FloridaSBA Scrutinized Companies List," DeSantis tweeted on Tuesday.
In a statement in April, Airbnb said that it does not support the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement targeting Israel.
"Airbnb has always opposed the BDS movement," the statement reads. "Airbnb has never boycotted Israel, Israeli businesses, or the more than 20,000 Israeli hosts who are active on the Airbnb platform. We have always sought to bring people together and will continue to work with our community to achieve this goal."

In the practice of Marek Wolfryd (Mexico City, 1989), appropriation, copy, plagiarism and citation serve as constants to interrogate images in the West. Above all, a desire persists to expand the limits of authorship and originality in favor of a poetic of fair use, where the art is part of a network of signs woven by a semionaut1; the artist, just a link of chains among a chain of production, distribution, commodification and consumption.
Wolfryd's relationship with art history, guided by curiosity, is ambivalent and comprehensive. Each of his series focuses on a specific period that, not being understood in a monolithic way, interconnects with other points in history, tracing a story that collapses past and present. His transhistoric artifacts, stripped of the need to be read univocally as art objects, connect distant temporalities to each other. The exercise of readability starts a conversation, plays with a hypothesis, without an a priori solution that defines individual perception.
Between the use of the object and the contemplation of the specific (2021) proposes a new way of reading North American minimalism from a peripherical context. In its early days, minimalism faced adverse views by a school of criticism that advocated for Abstract Expressionism, causing a breaking point in the United States in the early 1960s. Long before falling into a rhetoric of assertiveness of predominantly male power2, this art movement strived to break the guidelines of modernist painting and sculpture, which focused on the autonomy of the object and its intrinsic compositional values, to enhance the experience beyond the object, including the corporality of the spectator and his/her/their visual field. Minimalist attitude advocated for the simplicity of shapes, which, according to Robert Morris, "does not necessarily equate with simplicity of experience"3.
In this minimized minimalism, the material sets the production tone: the colors sometimes emulate the model; the shapes, above everything else, are identical. The scale reduction of the original three-dimensional works operates according to the overlay: talavera tiles designed specifically to mimic, in turn, the geometrical lines of the objects they cover, generating a kind of illusion between the surface and its details. This gesture should be understood as a speculative ornamentation that, once again, points to the history of materials. Let us remember that, from its roots, talavera tiles are a material of complex origins, a hybrid product with a clear Mudejar imprint brought to Latin America from Spain. Although there is a record of the ordinances in charge of giving law and order to the production of talavera during the Spanish colonization of the Americas, we can assert that it is a material with unsteady authorship, recreated through copies from original models.
It is from this principle that the artist questions the industrialized appliance of talavera through the usage of construction tiles, without ruling out the possibility that the artifacts can be considered artisanal. This body of work makes the craft and the artistic fluctuating categories, which transform or collide within the same object. According to Octavio Paz, "in craftsmanship there is a continuous movement back and forth between usefulness and beauty".4 However, we cannot idealize the artisan object. The construction of the post-revolutionary state in Mexico systematically eroded the authorship traces behind handcrafts, instrumentalizing them for political, cultural and diplomatic purposes. In craft —Wolfryd reminds us— there is a lot of copy, illegibility and anonymity.
It would be reiterative to point out that Marek Wolfryd's practice shares discursive and aesthetic features related to postmodernism (in this globalized panorama, what practice would be exempt?). Indeed, his work highlights the "exhaustion"5 of the conventions of the production, circulation and commodification of art in contemporary times. It is not a pessimistic vision, but rather a revision, renewal and recirculation of ideas that seem to have been long ago assimilated. Thus, by inspecting the nooks and crannies of North American "literalism" for its appropriation and resignification, Wolfryd invites us to contemplate not only the object per se, but also its organization and function within the space, as a unity and as a whole, even if these works have been cited previously. However, is it really possible to give appropriation a radical position? Which direction to take if originality has worn off? Perhaps it would be necessary to appeal to the slogan: Copy Is the Only Route.

Nokia is slowly turning around its ailing mobile handset business and today that effort had a nice fillip, by way of some revised figures in which it "exceeded expectations" for Q4 sales. Within that, Nokia says that in Q4 it sold 4.4 million Lumia devices — exactly twice as many units as those of its once-mighty Symbian platform, which sold 2.2 million.
But in case you missed the writing on the wall, the decline was underscored once more in a conference call today discussing the revised figures. There, Nokia's CFO Timo Ihamuotila said that Q4 would be the "last meaningful quarter for Symbian" sales and handsets for the company, as its business increasingly becomes a mix of Windows Phone devices, smartphones based on Series 40, and more lower end devices.
Nokia about a year ago was rumored to be preparing to shut down Symbian phone production altogether by cancelling contracts for upcoming devices. Nokia never publicly confirmed or denied the accuracy of those reports. But in reality it looks like it's letting the market do the shutting down for them.
That has been played out in global market shares as well as actual unit sales. Gartner's most recent figures for global handset shipments, covering Q3, indicate that Symbian lost nearly all of its worldwide market share in the last year. In Q3 the platform accounted for 16.9% of all handset shipments worldwide — still enough to put it in second place to Android. By Q3 2012, that share had dwindled down to 2.6%.
Since Nokia's Windows Phone-based Lumia devices sold 2.9 million units and Symbian sold 4.4 million units in Q3 2012, in effect, Q4 2012 was the quarter in which Windows Phone and Symbian swapped places.
There will be some sentimentalists and Symbian/Nokia fans who have long been lamenting the neglect and decline of the platform, for years the driving force of the company's smartphone business and smartphones worldwide.
But early mover is often a losing position in the world of technology. The pace of change, as dictated by the later entrants of Google's Android and Apple's iOS, was just too much for Nokia and Symbian to keep up.
Lest anyone get comfortable, however, things may yet change again for all we know.
Nokia is already predicting a "seasonally weak" slow Q1 — with operating margins back to flat-to-negative estimates, and ever more competition from Android and Apple weighing upon it. Combining that with the fact that Nokia will not categorically rule out Android in its future, we could yet see more carpet pulled out from under Nokia's users' feet.

Analysts confident bull market intact, no recession fears in U.S.
A stock market correction was long overdue, but understanding the bigger picture and seeing through the fear in financial markets can present some excellent opportunities for investors.
This is the view of RBC Wealth Management, one of the world's top five largest wealth managers with more than C$503 billion of assets under management. The view is based on confidence that a secular bull market—a long-term rising trend for stocks—is still intact.
It's human nature to overreact.
Robinson sits on RBC Wealth Management's Global Portfolio Advisory Committee (GPAC), which provides strategic analysis of financial markets and guidance on asset allocation and portfolio construction.
Given this lay of the land, a correction is a healthy development.
"Corrections are part and parcel of the landscape. They typically happen every 12 to 18 months. They clear out the overvalued excess in the marketplace and then you move on," said David Rosenberg, chief economist and strategist with Gluskin Sheff and Associates, in an interview with BNN on Aug. 25.
It's been four years since the last stock market correction. "That sort of gap has only happened three times in the recorded history of the stock market," Rosenberg said.
The standard definition of a correction is a decline of at least 10 percent from the top of the market to the bottom. Looking at a broad measure of U.S. stocks, the S&P 500 fell from its peak of 2,130.82 on May 21 to 1,867.61 on Aug. 25—a 12 percent drop. Canada's TSX Composite Index has fallen from its year-to-date peak of 15,450.90 on April 15 to 13,150.90 on Aug. 25—a 15 percent drop.
The catalyst for the correction was fallout from China devaluing its currency.
"It was really interpreted as an admission by the Chinese government that their economic slowdown was a lot more extreme than the headline data would indicate, and so that really has caused a widespread risk-off sentiment to pervade the market," says Robinson.
The "risk-off" sentiment has led to fear and widespread selling of stocks. Broad declines in commodities have also accompanied stocks lower.
"Fear is a much more overwhelming emotion than greed is," said Rosenberg. The declines over the past few trading sessions have quickly wiped out gains that took several months to build up.
Looking back at the August 2011 correction, there was palpable fear in financial markets that stemmed from rating agency S&P downgrading U.S. debt, along with the U.S. government shutdown and the European sovereign debt crisis. But the U.S. economy didn't go into a recession then.
Robinson generally advises clients with long-term investment horizons to stay the course, although there is the opportunity for tax loss selling before year-end.
Broadly speaking, the developed markets, such as the U.S. and Europe, look favourable for investors as opposed to the emerging markets and commodity plays.
The commodity bull market of the last decade is over, as the world's main growth engine—China—was never going to sustain its double-digit growth. Bloomberg's commodity index of 22 raw materials fell to its lowest level since 1999.
Given the view on commodities, the Canadian market requires caution. The Canadian economy has been shrinking for five straight months, but Robinson feels most of the damage has been done already.
Another factor suggesting staying the course is not being able to get good prices for trades in volatile markets. When the market moves very quickly over wide trading ranges, liquidity can be poor.
For example, investors often use exchange-traded funds (ETFs) to change their exposure to a certain sector of the market, but the prices for the ETFs can be way out of line with the net asset values of its constituents.
Underlying the recommendation is the confidence in a secular bull market for U.S. equities. The recovery from the correction may be slow, and it may get worse, but a rebound is expected due to the strong fundamentals of the U.S. economy.
Corrections are part and parcel of the landscape.
For the more tactically minded investors, Robinson advocates a more defensive tilt by looking at utilities for their dividend yields or even consumer staples, and moving away from cyclical sectors like consumer discretionary or financials.
China, as the catalyst for the correction, remains the wildcard going forward. The authorities have the tools to smooth the transition to a consumer-driven economy, but financial markets need to be convinced that more aggressive steps other than small rate cuts will be taken.
"As we wait for China to act more decisively, the global risk-off trade could take the recent correction in equities further, and play into a flight-to-safety bid for less cyclical assets," wrote CIBC chief economist Avery Shenfeld in an Aug. 24 research note.
After a further market downtown last week, Chinese authorities continue to hunt for invisible enemies.
It's great on the way up, but what happens on the way down?

Riveting Details of Atz Kilcher's Life Achievements, Net Worth and Large Family
By Ikenna Nwobodo
If you are well acquainted with the Discovery Channel series titled Alaska: The Last Frontier, you would certainly know Atz Kilcher and his family. While many people who want to be celebrities do so by going all the way to Hollywood to launch a career, Atz and his family have become TV sensations by staying in their homestead in Alaska where the popular TV series they feature in documents how their family is surviving in harsh weather conditions without plumbing or modern heating. The Kilcher family has garnered much fame as many people follow their intriguing lifestyle that includes fishing, hunting, farming as well as cattle rearing.
Being the eldest person in his family, Atz Kilcher has garnered more attention than anyone else as he considers himself to be the protector of his clan. As a result of this, he teaches others survival skills and manages his family's homestead efficiently. He has obviously done very well for himself ever since Alaska: The Last Frontiers began airing on TV as he has gone ahead to try his hands at writing a book.
A Delve Into the Life Achievements of Atz Kilcher
Before we unfold what the renowned American television personality has been able to achieve over the years, it is worthy to note that in contrast to his current fame, Atz Kilcher came from a humble background. His parents were Switzerland immigrants who later found shelter in Alaska during World War II. Things, however, later began to change for his family when his father Yule served in the Alaska Senate and was later appointed as a part of the delegates to write the Alaskan constitution. Atz's mother Ruth Weber, on the other hand, is a poet and writer noted for her work with Anchorage Daily News.
Whatever education Atz was able to acquire came from his mother who homeschooled him alongside his siblings. This education was far from being formal as it consisted of survival lessons and music tutorials. This made Atz fall in love with music and as a result, he became a popular figure while performing at different bars in Alaska.
Doing some recording in my home today with Martin Bril who has a mobile recording studio called the tinyrecordingstudio. This song is in others I recorded a few months ago will be soon released for you to download along with all my other older CDs. I'll let you all know when that happens.
A post shared by Atz Kilcher (@atzkilcher) on Nov 24, 2019 at 9:58pm PST
Atz's father produced a documentary titled A Pioneer Family in Alaska during the 1950s. The documentary gives an insight into what life is like on a homestead. Being the eldest of his siblings, Atz learned the rudiments of homesteading from his father and this marked the beginning of his success in managing a homestead.
Following in his father's footsteps, Atz Kilcher came up with the reality series Alaska: The Last Frontier which airs on the Discovery Channel. The show tends to bring to the limelight what life is like without the use of modern amenities and it commenced airing in 2011. The series also has a family-theme as it revolves around Atz and his brother Otto who happen to be the main stars of the show. The pair have six sisters, some of who are still living in the homestead to date.
Interestingly, the Kilcher family has developed the homestead into a world-class tourism center. Visitors from different parts of the world take trips to the homestead every year and their stay is fun-filled as their hosts organize art and music workshops. They also have homestead games like cooking and music competitions that keep visitors entertained.

Other than his work in the homestead and on the TV show, Atz Kilcher is also an acclaimed author whose book, Son of a Midnight Land: A Memoir in Stories, has received a lot of good reviews. The book was praised for the precise manner in which Atz captures his childhood experiences. It also showcased the different phases he went through in his life, going on new paths that included trying to be a cowboy and an athlete before starting his own family.
How Atz Kilcher's Makes and Spends His Money
It is no surprise that Atz Kilcher and his family members are a set of talented and creative people. His ability to turn their homestead into a world-class tourist destination has not just brought fame to him but also huge wealth. While his annual salary from his television show is currently not known, Kilcher's net worth is estimated to be $5 million, as of 2020.
In addition to what he earns from his show, Atz's writing is another source of income. With the huge success of his book, the reality star's net worth is expected to increase tremendously in the coming years. More so, since he does not live a luxurious life, and only mostly spends his money to keep his homestead in good shape among other things, the TV star should have a good sum stashed away when he eventually retires from his show.

Kilcher's family at the homestead
Atz Kilcher has been married a few times. His first marriage was to Lenedra J. Caroll who he reportedly wed sometime in the 60s although no detailed information has been published about their union. However, it is known that they had three children; Shane Kilcher, Atz Lee Kilcher, and pop singer Jewel Kilcher. The couple divorced in 1982 and Atz managed to raise his kids on the homestead after Lenedra left.
It was gathered that sometime in his son Atz Lee's life, he decided to leave home in pursuit of a music career like his sister, Jewel. Unfortunately, his attempt was futile and he headed back to the homestead where he is living happily and free. Jewel, on the other hand, has been making waves in the music industry. She launched her debut album in 1995 and has gone ahead to release several other albums over the years that have been well received.
Apart from Lenedra, Atz Kilcher has also been linked to two other women; Linda who bore him Nikos Kilcher, and Bonnie Dupree who later became his wife. Not much is known about his relationship with Linda apart from the fact that that their dalliance produced his fourth child.
In regard to his current wife Bonnie, it was gathered that she was on a visit to Alaska from her hometown of New York when she crossed paths with Atz and subsequently agreed to be his wife. It is also known that Bonnie has been married before and shares two children with her first husband. However, unlike Atz, her union did not end in divorce. It only came to an end following the death of her former husband.
