I have nothing to declare except my genius.
A visual history of Atari
Atari is still one of the most respected companies in the area of gaming and it has played a pivotal role in the development of the computer entertainment industry.
The company has had to deal with a significant number of challenges both internally and externally. The company was founded by Nolan Bushnell and Ted Dabney in 1972 and was responsible for iconic games such as Pong and Breakout. The VCS system or 2600 revolutionised the home gaming market and created a new wave of home entertainment systems that has influenced generations of gamers, entrepreneurs, artists, developers and fans.
Atari famously was responsible for giving an opportunity to two of Silicon Valley's most influential people on a game that was released in 1976, the game was called 'Breakout' and the people were Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak, who along with Atari employee Ronald Wayne, who would also go on to be a co-founder in the Apple Computer Company in 1976.
Bushnell also had the opportunity to become an equal partner in Apple, he was asked by Steve Jobs to invest $50,000 into the company and receive a third of the company. Bushnell declined the offer to invest. Even though Bushnell missed out on that opportunity he helped to build Atari into one of the most iconic brands in the world and their legacy still lives on with the brands and successful individuals that were inspired to build on the success of the brand.
Atari history timeline
Atari was incorporated in the state of California on June 27, 1972 by Nolan Bushnell and Ted Dabney.
Bushnell and Dabney wrote down a list of names as an alternative to Syzergy' and Atari was the 3rd name on the list. The name Atari is from the Japanese computer game 'Go' and it means 'warning imminent danger' of being defeated by an enemy.
Pong was released.
The Atari symbol was designed by George Opperman in 1972, Opperman was the head of his own design agency, Opperman-Harrington Inc.
The Atari logo was influenced by the aesthetic appearance of Mount Fuji in Japan.
Ted Dabney leaves the company.
Atari turned over $3.2 million due to the success of Pong.
To follow on from the success of Pong Atari begin development for a new game 'Breakout.' Atari employee Ronald Wayne works with Nolan Bushnell on the project, and they get two young guys to help out on the project. The guys were Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak, the co-founders of Apple Computer.
Bushnell sold Atari to Warner Communications for $28 million and Bushnell remains with the company.
The Atari Video Computer System (VCS) or the '2600' games console is launched.
Bushnell leaves Atari due to internal disputes with the new management team.
Atari launch the Atari 400 & 800 home computers.
Missile Command released into Arcades.
Advanced Video Computer "System X" released; it would later be renamed the Atari 5200 Super System.
The Video game crash hits the gaming market hard and Atari lose 97% of their revenues.
Atari 7800 Prosystem gaming console is released. The original Atari Inc. is split into two divisions. The Atari Consumer Electronics Division properties are sold to Jack Tramiel while Warner keeps the arcade division, Atari Games, Inc.
Atari releases the XE and Atari ST computers.
The world's first colour handheld gaming system the Atari Lynx is launched.
Atari Corporation reverse-merges with disk-drive manufacturer JT Storage (JTS), becoming a division within the company.
Hasbro Interactive acquires all Atari Corporation related properties from JTS, creating a new subsidiary, Hasbro Interactive.
Infogrames Entertainment acquires GT Interactive, Inc. and renames it Infogrames, Inc. Infogrames, Inc. remains listed in the US.
The brand name changed hands again in December 2000 when French software publisher Infogrames took over Hasbro Interactive
Infogrames Entertainment acquires Hasbro Interactive and renames it Infogrames Interactive, Inc.
Infogrames Interactive is renamed Atari Interactive. Infogrames, Inc. (formerly GT Interactive), changes its name to Atari, Inc.
Infogrames changes its name to Atari, SA.
In April 2010, Atari SA board member and former CEO David Gardner resigned. Original Atari co-founderNolan Bushnell joined the board as a representative for Blubay holdings.
The listing of the Atari, SA shares is suspended on the Paris Stock Exchange.
On January 21, 2013, the four US subsidiaries of Atari, SA, i.e. Atari, Inc., Atari Interactive, Inc., Humongous Entertainment, Inc. and California US Holdings, Inc. file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York.
In February 2013, Frédéric Chesnais, former CEO of Atari Interactive, Inc., as well as former Deputy-COO and CFO of Infogrames Entertainment, becomes Atari, SA's largest shareholder through his holding company Ker Ventures. Atari, SA does not file for bankruptcy in France and remains solvent thanks to Ker Ventures funding.
Atari exits from Chapter 11 in December. At the end of March 31, 2013, Atari, SA and its subsidiaries has one million (Euro) of revenue only.
In January, quotation of the Atari, SA shares is resumed on the Paris stock Exchange.

Xord introduces Blockship, a Global Blockchain Community
Xord is one of the leading international blockchain organizations that also spreads enlightenment about blockchain technology around the world. Seeing the burning curiosity of the blockchain, Xord has taken the initiative of introducing the idea of a global community advocating blockchain by the name "Blockship" which runs on a global scale. The platform of Blockship brings like-minded people from around the world under one roof, where they communicate and brainstorm innovative ideas for building blockchain into a better place for the decentralized network.
Xord is always on a consistent search for diligent and intellectual individuals to interact and work with. The initiative of Blockship is intended to enable that mission on a broader spectrum. The community we are building is open for everyone to interact with the team of Xord and other blockchain advocates around the world.
Blockship is also conducting educational meetups like the BlockUnblock R&D meetup in different places, through which we plan on expanding our exposure and advocating blockchain on a larger scale. The idea of Blockship originated from an experiment recently conducted by Xord with the name of Summer Blockship Program, where about 500+ people joined to embrace the knowledge of blockchain and MERN Stack development and availed opportunities to start internships here at Xord. Xord is proud to build such a dedicated team and community across the globe and sees the whole community to be the progressive future of blockchain technology.

The President used the word "math" five times in the State of the Union address in 2006. He was pointing then that the United States is not producing enough college graduates in the STEM fields.
The files posted here include the final report of the NMAP. Also included are a one page, a four page, and a 20 page summary of the Report that I prepared in 2008. Also included is an interesting 2007 paper titled Rising Above the Gathering Storm.
This document, Multiple Approaches to Teaching Subtraction of Integers, contains material released with last month's conference call.
Page 1 and 3 have been enriched, and page 6, "Taking Away a Negative," is a new page with a practical example highlighting the process of subtracting a negative number.
This document is a must read for all Mathnasium Instructors and Center Directors. As always, your feedback and comments are greatly appreciated.
Multiplication Fact Fluency Is Coming!
Later this week, the Education Department will roll out a Multiplication Fact Fluency program. Much like Numerical Fluency for Addition and Subtraction facts, the Multiplication Fact Fluency program will assess students' abilities not only to recall the products of their multiplication facts in families 0 – 12 quickly and accurately, but also to understand the math behind those facts and use their number sense to find answers that they may not have yet mastered.
This is why Mathnasium's Multiplication Fact Fluency program is a multi–step process which includes mastery of prerequisite skills, Prescriptives, verbal interaction with Instructors, manipulatives, Workbooks, and structured reinforcement over an appropriate period of time. While awareness and competency may be accomplished through a Prescriptive, mastery for most students will come days or months in the future and will require significant repetition and practice in a way that we are not necessarily accustomed to administering at Mathnasium.
And a final Assessment that is 169 facts long.
In the near future, you may even see recommendations for apps students can use as they practice their facts at home!
We will stay true to our beliefs and work in favor of understanding and strategy over memorization, but please be aware that the two may not look as distinct as they have in the past for this particular purpose.
Keep watching Mathnasium Matters for more updates!
Zeroing in on Curriculum and Instruction: What Does e(iπ) Mean?
At the convention this year in both my Masters With the Master and Afternoons With Larry sessions, the question "What does e(iπ) mean?" came up. This document explores this question in greater depth.
Feedback and lively mathematical banter are encouraged and appreciated.
At this year's convention in Atlanta, I presented a session titled The Advanced Student at Mathnasium. At the session, I distributed a document of the same name that discusses several things to consider when working with truly advanced kids. I also provided a document titled Enrichment_for_Elementary__MdSch_#003, which lists several little known Focus Ons that are appropriate for use with these kids.
My other session was titled Afternoons With Larry. In this session I discussed why 0! = 1, and why any non-zero quantity to the zero (0) power also is 1.
Common to both sessions was an introduction to Egyptian fractions and why 0.999… both is and is not equal to one (1).
All of the documents for these session can be downloaded here.
One of the highlights of the Mathnasium Method™ is our approach to introducing the concept of percent to mean "for each 100." As students master this approach, it becomes apparent that alternate strategies for solving percentage questions are sometimes in order because the numbers are not "friendly" enough. In this article and future articles, we will explore other ways to handle a wide range of percentage questions.
Let's get started and see how to find 10% and 1% of a given number. Click here to download the document. I encourage you all to print this out and share it with your Instructors at staff meetings for ongoing training purposes. As always, feedback is requested and appreciated.
Since the inception of the PISA (Programme for International Student Assessment) in 2000, the United States has dropped from 20th in 2000 to 24th in 2003, tied for 26th in 2006, dropped to 30th in 2009, and stands 26th/32nd in 2012 (click here to read more about the 2012 PISA results) for mathematics. Clearly the United States is being out performed year after year by high achieving countries around the world.
While our top performers tend to excel on the global stage, our "average" kids do not compare well with kids in other countries—those with whom they will soon be competing for the good jobs of the future.
The results from the PISA are particularly significant in light of the fact that as far as math is concerned, the test measures 15-year-old students around the world in only one specific category: problem solving, which is generally considered to be the crown jewel of mathematics education.
The final report of the president's National Math Panel (2008) soberly reported that grade by grade, America's students are not learning enough math and science to keep pace with the rest of the world. As evidenced by the 2009 and 2012 PISA reports, as a country, we are not yet changing the direction of the trend line.
Over the past 50 years, many attempts have been made to "reform" mathematics education. "New Math," "Back to Basics," various flavors of "Reform Math" (Mathland, Everyday Math, TERC, and Connected Math, to name a few), and No Child Left Behind, were all heralded in their time as being the approach that would move the needle in the right direction. The new kid on the block is the Common Core. It will be several years before we know whether or not it will fare any better than previous attempts to put mathematics education on a truly positive course.
As we start a new year with the changes coming from the Common Core curriculum, pressure to increase the performance of US students on the world stage, and continuing demand for math skills in the workforce to support the vast technological developments that continually shape and reshape our world, it is important to keep in mind that at Mathnasium, we will continue to meet the needs of the students who grace our Centers by providing a safe haven for them from the frustration, boredom, and embarrassment they have been enduring in their everyday classroom experience.
When you and your Instructors teach students, being actively mindful of all possible approaches to solving a problem greatly enhances the quality of the instruction and guidance you provide. Most importantly, communicating and modeling this presence of mind encourages your students to look past the constraints of algorithmic thinking and use their mathematical creativity and innate number sense. This document, Presence of Mind, presents guidelines on incorporating presence of mind into your day-to-day teaching. Please read it and share with your Instructors as you work with them on further training. For more on what you can do to nip instinctive algorithmic thinking in the bud, check out this Mathnasium Matters article.
As always, feedback is requested and appreciated.
Teach and Move On is a fundamental cornerstone of the Mathnasium teaching methodology and is a huge driving force behind the student success stories we see in our centers day after day. Throughout the 11 years of Mathnasium's existence, Teach and Move On has come to mean different things to different center owners. I want to explicitly define Teach and Move On as a teaching practice wherein a team of Instructors physically rotates around the center as they help students, with each Instructor disengaging from a student once a concept has been taught and moving on to help others. I also want to address some of the most common misconceptions and points of confusion regarding Teach and Move On as well as shed some light on where we're headed in terms of improving training and other resources that support the rotation of Instructors as a team.
When encountering a computational question, far too many students automatically start to perform an algorithm. Many times, mental math is a much better approach. This document, Training the Mind, provides examples and exercises for Instructors to increase their awareness of when it's appropriate to bring in mental math when solving computational problems. I encourage you to use this as an additional training tool for your Instructors. In turn, they can utilize these exercises when working with students.
The following documents are a collection of supplementary materials for the Common Core State Standards/Math Wars portion of the June 28, 2013 conference call. They provide a comprehensive, in-depth explanation of the goals and objectives of the Common Core State Standards as well as a rundown of which states have currently adopted the Common Core State Standards. I strongly encourage you to go through these materials (read the PDFs before the Powerpoint presentations) alongside the required reading materials for Friday's call.
Zeroing in on Curriculum and Instruction: Should Kids Use a Calculator for Math?
In this installment of Zeroing in on Curriculum and Instruction, I'd like to share an article with you entitled "Should Kids Use a Calculator for Math?" which extols the many benefits of allowing kids to solve math problems without the aid of calculators.
Encouraging young learners to use calculators before they develop adequate mathematical foundations very often leads to serious gaps in their learning and their failure to build number sense and problem solving skills.
Problem solving skills, the centerpiece of modern mathematics education, have their roots in the NUMBER SENSE that comes from the study of traditional arithmetic.
Calculators and computers have taken much of the drudgery out of math, but they cannot replace the number sense that is learned in the process of mastering many of the fundamental concepts, facts, and skills of basic arithmetic.
NUMBER SENSE is an integral component of everyone's "mathematical toolkit." It complements and supplements all aspects of mathematics education.
I encourage you to print this article out and keep it in your waiting areas for parents to read, as well as share it with Instructors as a discussion point during your next staff meeting. Thank you to center owner Barry Fausnaugh of Mathnasium of Bethesda, MD for calling my attention to this piece.
These four insightful articles provide thinking points from multiple angles regarding the state of math education today. I encourage you to read these articles, share them with your staff during training sessions, and keep these issues in mind as you encounter and work with students at your centers.
'Honors' math classes often don't add up: This article from USA Today looks beyond the "honors" label, discussing the level of math that students in these classes are learning.
How are our children doing in math? & There is more than one way to solve a problem: According to recent studies, US students in fourth and eighth grades perform well in math, compared with their international counterparts. Yet, data shows a sharp decline among US students when they enter high school. These articles cover neuropsychologist Dr. Steven Feifer's findings regarding possible reasons for this decline in performance and math anxiety in general.
While we don't support all the comments made in these articles, Mathnasium does strongly support Farber's recommendation of an increased emphasis on verbal (oral) and visual-spatial instruction by classroom teachers.
I encourage you to print it out and share these thoughts with your Instructors during your next staff meeting or training session. As always, feedback is much appreciated.
In a previous conference call, I released a document titled Enrichment_for_Elementary__MdSch_#001_v01. The document contains a list of suggested curriculum materials you can use as you work with students that come to Mathnasium for enrichment. The list was well received, with many Center Directors discovering material they did not know existed.
Note that this material is also appropriate for students in higher grade levels who come to your center for remediation.

College Triathlon Closing in on NCAA Championship Status
By: Mary Helen Sprecher
The Addition of an HBCU to USA Triathlon's Roster is Further Evidence of the Sport's Appeal
The announcement, from USA Triathlon, that Hampton University in Hampton, Virginia, is the latest school in the nation to add a varsity women's triathlon program, was made even more notable by the fact that it is the first-ever HBCU (Historically Black Colleges and Universities) to participate in the sport at the varsity level.
With the addition of Hampton, the sport inches closer to its goal of becoming a full-fledged NCAA championship sport. Currently, varsity women's triathlon is offered at 24 universities at the Divisions I, II and III level. Under its emerging sport status, triathlon has a 10-year window to prove continued momentum in order to become an official NCAA sport. Triathlon entered its emergent status in 2014, meaning that by 2024, at least 40 NCAA Division I, II and III institutions must adopt the sport at the varsity level for women.
And the fact that in four years, it has surpassed the halfway point bodes well.
"While we're very confident we will hit 40, we can still achieve full-fledged NCAA Championship status by 2024 even if we haven't, as long as we are showing continued and sustainable progress towards the goal," Caryn Maconi, USA Triathlon's communications manager, told SDM.
While the sport is not experiencing the same meteoric rise as beach volleyball, it remains popular and is continuing to grow. USA Triathlon has aided that growth by offering three-year grants for eligible college programs. The addition of the Hampton women's triathlon program is made possible through a $225,000 grant from the USA Triathlon Foundation, which was reserved for the first HBCU that added the sport at the varsity level in a proactive effort to increase diversity in collegiate triathlon. The grant will be distributed over a five-year period and may support travel, equipment, coaching, scholarships and other expenses related to building a sustainable varsity program. (All other varsity women's triathlon programs, including future HBCUs, have the opportunity to apply for the standard USA Triathlon Foundation Women's Emerging Sport Grant.)
"Hampton University's partnership with USA Triathlon provides a pathway into the collegiate arena for the sport at an HBCU for young black women from urban communities around the world," said Dr. Tekemia Dorsey, CEO of the Maryland-based International Association of Black Triathletes. "As IABT's Youth & Junior Club Programs continue to expand here in Maryland through partnerships with urban local school systems, we are now able to advocate, support and encourage enrollment in Hampton University's triathlon program. I have great hope that other HBCUs will come on board to introduce the program, especially in the Baltimore-Washington metropolitan area. This has been an initiative of mine for several years, and I am ecstatic to see it come to fruition. Historic, groundbreaking, monumental. Great job, Hampton University and USA Triathlon!"
In addition, the organization is working to reward individual students for their start-up work in college triathlon. USA Triathlon created the Truxes Model Scholarship to award $1,000 scholarships to current college students to write proposals for NCAA institutions (Division I, II or III) whose institutions officially commit with USAT to add the sport.
The growth of the sport is adding up to increasingly measurable economic impact. As a case study, USA Triathlon reported to SDM that at its April 2017 USA Triathlon Collegiate Club and High School National Championships in Tuscaloosa, almost 98 percent of participants used lodging, resulting in close to $1 million economic impact in that area. The total economic impact (including the lodging figure plus shopping, attractions, dining, rental cars and more) came to more than $2.1 million.
Men's Programs
While the women's triathlon is the side receiving the most support presently, expect collegiate men's triathlon to be a wave of the future as well. USA Triathlon is keeping its focus on the women's effort until the sport is fully successful and firmly positioned at the NCAA level for women. In the meantime, destinations and event owners can expect to see collegiate men's participation at the club level.
The projection is for college multisport to continue its rise. Working to attract this demographic early and promoting opportunities for students to register can help create the reputation of a student-friendly event that continues to grow and create positive returns. SDM will continue to follow the development of the issue – and of the sport.
Want to know where the women's varisty programs are currently -- and where athletes might be concentrated? Here's the rundown.

The American Heart Association says a new study examining the connection between sodium intake and the blood pressure in U.S. children and teens points to the urgent need to limit salt in foods consumed by young people.
The study, conducted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and published in the journal Pediatrics, found that kids between the ages of 8 and 18 were eating an average of 3,387 milligrams a day of sodium. That's nearly the same amount consumed by adults and more than double the 1,500 daily milligrams recommended by the American Heart Association.
"It's very disturbing that this nation's children and teens consume too much salt in their diets at school and home. High blood pressure, once viewed as an adult illness is now affecting more young people because of high sodium diets and increasing obesity," said Nancy Brown, CEO of the American Heart Association. "While new nutrition standards for school meals are helping, progress is slow. This study strongly underscores the need to move faster because our kids are on an early path to heart attacks and strokes."
Too much sodium is linked to high blood pressure, a major risk factor for heart disease, stroke and several other serious health problems. High blood pressure is one of several diseases that once appeared mainly in adults but has become much more common in youths during our childhood obesity epidemic.
More than 75 percent of sodium in the diets of Americans comes from processed and restaurant foods, as well as beverages. So much sodium in the food supply leaves many youths with little control over how much they consume.
"The salt we all eat daily is becoming a major public health issue and current approaches to sodium reduction in the U.S. have not been effective," Brown said. "We must make the reduction of sodium a national priority."
The American Heart Association recommends that the U.S. Department of Agriculture institute strong sodium targets in schools and apply new sodium limits sooner than what is currently required. The association also has also called on the Food and Drug Administration to decrease the Daily Value for sodium to 1,500 milligrams a day and to set mandatory limits on the sodium content of foods.

Oedipus defends his choice to blind himself, saying he cannot look upon his mother and father in the underworld, nor look upon his incestuous children in this world. Oedipus beckons to the Chorus but they only recoil. Creon enters, now in charge of the city of Thebes, and Oedipus ask to be exiled—fulfilling Apollo's command. Oedipus then begs Creon to bury Jocasta properly and to allow him one last meeting with his daughters. His daughters enter and Oedipus embraces them. He asks Creon to promise to raise them, but Creon also recoils from Oedipus when he reaches for him. Creon takes Oedipus's daughters from him, telling him his power is at an end. The play ends with the Chorus directly addressing the audience, saying that Oedipus is proof that no man can be happy until he dies.

Will there be Too Hot To Handle Season 2: Release Date and What to Expect
Apr 20, 2020 Add Comment
Apple iPhone 9: Release date, Price, specifications, and design!
Netflix just launched a dating show 'Too Hot To Handle' and it became instant hit and talk of the town. The island-based reality dating show featured contestants from all around the globe where they met each other in order to develop a deeper emotional connection within one month of their stay in the retreat.
Too Hot To Handle was launched on April 17, 2020, and it featured a total of 8 episodes. Netflix dropped all the 8 episodes together that enabled viewers to binge-watch the show amid lockdown.
The show is about a group of 12 solitary individuals all living with each other in an attractive island resort, where they can learn more about one another, take place dates as well as see if they can find love on the program. Nevertheless, the one specification is that none of the participants are allowed to have any type of sexual interaction. This can imply anything from kissing to really making love, leaving them all with absolutely nothing to do however to be familiar with everyone on a much deeper level that's greater than just physical.
Breaking the rule meant penalty and deduction from the prize money of $100,000 (₤ 80,000). When they all first shown up on the island, none of them understood what was going to happen as well as simply assumed it was dating show to locate love while on holiday. Little did they recognize that they were all chosen from around the world as a result of their inability to make a commitment. So just 12 hours after starting to get physically closer to one another, the bombshell was dropped to every one of their aggravating.
Few participants could not resist which resulted in penalties. We are leaving it up to users on what happened in the show withing their one month stay. In the end, everyone emerged as the winner and a total prize money of $75000 USD was distributed among 10 remaining participants in the show.
Will there be another series of Too Hot To Handle?
Too Hot to Handle is the first series of its kind. Although Netflix has not yet announced the release of the second part of Too Hot To Handle, but we can easily assume its sequel to come riding on the back of the success of season 1.
Too Hot To Handle Season 2 Release Date
Since Netflix monitors the performance of a show for a month before committing to the making of any sequel, there is no detail on launch the second season. Also, due to Cornoavirus lockdown, the shooting of sequel would get delayed. If Netflix plans a sequel, then we can assume that Too Hot To Handle season 2 would be released around October 2021.

Domodedovo passenger traffic continues to decline
Posted on October 7th, 2016 by Russian Aviation Insider in Air Transport, Russia, Trending
Domodedovo international flights saw a 18.5% decrease, to 9.2 million passengers, in January-September 2016 (Photo by Leonid Faerberg / transport-photo.com)
Moscow Domodedovo airport, the second largest airport in Russia, continued to lose passengers on international routes but, nevertheless, hopes to improve the situation due to the increase in demand for tourist flights, first and foremost in Turkey.
In January-September 2016, the airport served 22.2 million people, which is 8.6% less than during the same period last year. Moreover, if the passenger traffic volume on domestic routes in the first three quarters of the year remained at the same level a year ago, 13 million people, the international flights saw a 18.5% decrease, to 9.2 million passengers.
Domodedovo representatives explain that the decline in international flights is connected with the restriction for flights to Egypt, Ukraine and Turkey, and note that in the other international routes the passenger traffic saw a 5% increase compared to January-September 2015. The most significant positive changes in tourist passenger segment were noted on flights to Larnaca (Cyprus), Punta Cana (Dominican Republic), Phuket (Thailand), Enfidha and Djerba (Tunisia). The demand for them has more than tripled compared to the same period last year. In the reporting period, the above mentioned flights served 789 thousand passengers.
The airport also reported that after the resumption of charter flights to Turkey in September the passenger traffic between Domodedovo and the cities of this country amounted to 36.1 thousand passengers.
The airport hopes that it will be able to change the trend in the international passenger traffic. So in September, Thai Airways, the national airline of Thailand, announced the resumption of flights from Bangkok to Domodedovo. Another large foreign carrier –Emirates returned Airbus A380 to Moscow flights from October 1.
Domodedovo passenger traffic decreases the second consecutive year due to the general slump in demand for air travel in Russia in the conditions of economic hardships and political constraints. At the end of 2014 Domodedovo was the largest airport of the country with passenger traffic of 33 million people. A year later, it served 30.5 million passengers and yielded the palm to other Moscow airport — Sheremetyevo.

A former Leicester City surgeon has died aged 79.
Mr Raymond Chan was well known throughout the city after working as one of the football club's surgeons and an orthopedic consultant at Leicester Royal Infirmary for over two decades.
After retiring in 1999, Mr Chan - known to his friends and family as Ray - lived in Mountsorrel where he died on Monday (April 1).
Alice Chan, Ray's daughter, said: "He touched the lives of many of Leicester's citizens and was regularly approached in pubs, supermarkets and elsewhere, by grateful patients, or family of patients."
Ms Chan also explained that Ray worked for Leicester City during Gary Lineker's 'heyday'.
She added: "He probably would remember my dad."
British National, Ray was born in Hong Kong in 1939, before enduring life in refugee camps in China after Hong Kong was evacuated during the Second World War.
He then attended sixth form in Northern Ireland before graduating from Corpus Christi College, Cambridge in 1962, with a Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery.
After furthering his medical training in London and then working in Bath for a period of time, Ray and his first wife and mother of his children, Patricia, moved to Leicester in 1976.
He was appointed as a consultant orthopaedic surgeon at Leicester Royal Infirmary where he worked for over two decades.
Ray's studies in Cambridge and training in London meant he earned the full title of Mr Raymond Chan MB BChir FRCS.
On top of his consultant role and work with Leicester City, Ray also held clinics at Leicester General, Nuffield Clinic and in Oakham.
Ms Chan said: "My dad was so memorable.
"Short in stature, but large in personality, and known not to suffer fools gladly - he taught many junior doctors throughout his tenure and treated thousands of patients.
"They would have a story to share about how he enabled them to walk again through a hip replacement, knee surgery, back surgery and more.
"His sense of humor, and loyalty to his colleagues, won him many friends throughout the county."
In his spare time Ray was a lover of classical music as well as sports such as football, cricket and motor sports.
He also enjoyed nothing more than indulging in fine food and wine as well as cooking, particularly multiple course banquets for Chinese New Year.
Ray's wife Maureen Chan died in 2011, but he leaves behind four heart-broken children and three grandsons. Another grandchild is also due in May this year.
Ray's funeral will be held at Loughborough Crematorium on April 12 at 1.15pm.

Markham's Tower Solutions accesses CAD 500 K in EDC financing to support a new contract in Saudi Arabia Français
Export Development Canada
MARKHAM, ON, March 3, 2016 /CNW/ - Export Development Canada (EDC) today announced CAD 500 K in financing for Markham-based Tower Solutions to help manage the costs of delivering on a new contract in Saudi Arabia.
Tower Solutions is a small- to medium-sized enterprise (SME) that specializes in the design, engineering, and installation of portable towers used for emergency power line maintenance. The company has developed unique technology that makes the towers especially effective in desert conditions, making the Middle East a key market for future growth.
"Given how adaptable and uniquely engineered our product is, we see huge potential for expanding our global footprint," said Ciro Pasani, CEO of Tower Solutions. "As a SME, the challenge is getting the financing we need to take on new international contracts, and also finding the right partner that can help us penetrate new markets and find the right opportunities. EDC has been able to help us on both counts."
In addition to supporting Tower Solutions' expansion into the Middle East, EDC's local representatives in India and Colombia were able to help Tower Solutions find opportunities with major buyers in those markets. With EDC backing Tower Solutions financially, prospective buyers can be confident that the SME has the financial support necessary to deliver on large contracts.
"It can be hard for a small business to get initial financing to expand its footprint," said Mairead Lavery, Senior Vice-President, Business Development, EDC. "EDC's goal is to make exporting as easy as possible, because small companies have more time to spend on productive areas of their business when they're not worried about financing or risk."
"In the case of Tower Solutions, we see considerable potential for the company to grow given their unique product, and how innovative and adaptable they've shown themselves to be," said Lavery. "We look forward to seeing them succeed in their expansion, and we'll continue to keep an eye out for potential foreign buyers to connect them with."
SMEs like Tower Solutions make up 99 per cent of Canada's businesses, account for 40 per cent of GDP and 55 per cent of all jobs. Yet only 73,000 of the more than 1 million SMEs operating in Canada are currently exporting. This means only 7 per cent of Canada's economic engine is tapping into international customers and supply chains. EDC is committed to raising that percentage, and in 2015 provided nearly 6,000 SMEs with the solutions they needed to conduct CAD 15.5 B in exports and investments.
About Tower Solutions
Tower Solutions is a privately held Canadian corporation based in Ontario and is a proud member of the Markham Chamber of Commerce and the Toronto Board of Trade. The Company was formed in 2002 in response to the industry's need for a better temporary tower solution.
EDC is Canada's trade finance agency, providing financing and insurance solutions locally and around the world to help Canadian companies of any size respond to international business opportunities. As a profitable Crown corporation that operates on commercial principles, EDC works with private and public-sector financial institutions to create greater capacity for Canadian companies to engage in trade and investment.

GRETNA - A Jefferson Parish woman is suing a local Wal-Mart claiming she was injured in a fall on its premises.
Shatoya Leagea filed suit against Wal-Mart Louisiana, LLC, an unknown employee, ABC Cleaning Company, an independent contractor working for Wal-Mart and their insurers.
The suit was filed in the 24th Judicial Court on July 31. Leagea claims she was shopping in the store when she allegedly fell to the ground due to a substance on the floor.
The defendant is accused of failing to maintain a reasonably safe area for its patrons, failing to provide immediate assistance to plaintiff, failing to train its employees, failing to warn its patrons, reckless endangerment, reckless indifference and intentional tort, including but not limited to assault.
An unspecified amount in damages is sought for loss of enjoyment of life, physical disability, pain and suffering, mental pain and suffering, disruption of bodily tissues and cells and past, present and future medical expenses.
Leagea is represented by Ron A. Austin and Jeffrey P. Green of Austin & Associates, LLC in Harvey.
Division I Judge Nancy A. Miller is assigned to the case.

With a big recruiting class coming in this season, Luzcando is another nice piece to the puzzle as the Bengals rebuild. Luzcando should be a big contributor who will fit in nicely under Evans.

How do you currently measure and track your athletes performance?
Research studies shows that the tempo of a repetition has a great effect both neural and metabolic responses to the training. Thus, optimal tempo prescription is a great opportunity to control and target the training effect.
I am a big believer in systematic, gradual progressions that the develop the athletes as fast as they can handle, but with minimal risk of injury.
I had the opportunity to sit down with three strength and conditioning coaches that I have the utmost respect for. Not only are these three gentlemen outstanding coaches, but they have been both friends and mentors to me.
Your athlete can't squat deep - what do you do?
We have all faced this issue.
Your athlete can't squat deep with proper form. What do you do?
Do you say "Okay, you can't squat deep so we will need to restrict the range of motion"
Or do you think: "Okay, maybe we have been approaching this in the wrong way. What happens if we try to teach the squat from the bottom up, instead of from the top down?"
Breaking up a longer set with breathing in between repetitions makes the set a "cluster type".
Cluster training is an application of the interval principle known from energy systems training applied to one set of resistance training.

They have served me well on my journey through life.


The last time we met up with Michael Czysz, he gave us the lowdown on why allowing dustbin fairings for use in road racing events was a poor decision for sanctioning bodies to make. Thankfully, Czysz has put his words to paper (computer screen?), and explained his thoughts on the subject more deeply in a blog post.
Making comparison to the salt flats of Bonneville, where streamlining is the name of the game, and close-circuit road course races like the Isle of Man, Czysz drives home the point that this is not a technology that transcends racing venues, saying "if Bonneville was 24' wide and lined with stone walls streamlining would be banned- and so it should be at the IOM." You can read his full post here for more of his analysis, and click past the jump to see what all the fuss is about.
For those who aren't that familiar with the debate surrounding dustbin or streamliner fairings, there's been some talk in the electric motorcycle crowd about bringing this sort of technology back in favor for road racing use. Electric motorcycle's can greatly benefit from the added efficiency streamlining brings to motorcycle design, and is considered part of the "rethink how we do things" mentality electric racers have included in their raison d'être. However as Czysz points out, these benefits come with various risks that Czysz believes are too great to chance on a road based circuit, and the move to an electric platform does not warrant such a back-step from the industry-wide notion that true streamlining has no place in road racing.
With TTXGP holding its rules open in a wiki format, the push for streamliner fairings has come back into public scrutiny, and is currently allowed in the series' rule book. Part of this push comes from the added participation of Craig Vetter in forming the TTXGP rules in regards to streamlining. Vetter has been a long-time proponent of dustbin fairings, and has been the central rallying point for the pro-streamlining camp. In response to this, Czysz calls for support from his fellow manufacturers, it'll be interesting to see who joins the anti-dustbin bandwagon, and even more interesting to see if anyone shows up with a dustbin fairing at any of the scheduled electric motorcycle racing events this year.

Film Review by Kam Williams
Saoirse Shines as Rebellious Teen in Touching, Coming-of-Age Adventure
Saoirse Ronan is only 23, but she's already been nominated for an Academy Award twice, for Brooklyn (2015) and Atonement (2005). Now, she's a shoo-in to land another nomination for her memorable turn as the title character in Lady Bird.
It's hard to say whether three times will prove to be the charm for the Irish ingenue, since this has been a banner year for actresses, with powerful performances turned in by worthy competitors like Sally Hawkins, Frances McDormand and perennial-nominee Meryl Streep. Win or lose, Ronan deserves all the accolades she's getting for exhibiting an enviable range in a very demanding role as a tormented teen constantly in crisis.
Life is an emotional roller coaster for this college-bound senior. And as the film unfolds, it's easy to see why. Christine "Lady Bird" McPherson is an iconoclast who refuses to conform, whether she's rebelling from her overbearing mother (Laurie Metcalf) or breaking the rules at her Catholic high school. She dyes her hair a bizarre blend of red and pink, and insists on being addressed as Lady Bird by everyone.
Despite being an academic underachiever, she's banking on college as her ticket out of town. She hates boring Sacramento, and won't settle for a school anywhere but in New York City. But instead of studying to pick up her grades, she indulges her impulses by running for class president and trying out for a role in The Tempest. Plus, her hormones are raging, and she's a little boy crazy, too. So, excuse her for not being able to keep her eyes on the university prize.
The plot thickens in a variety of surprising ways it would be almost evil to spoil here. Suffice to say that Lady Bird is a fantastic, female-centric, instant classic reminiscent of both Juno (2007) and Bridesmaids (2011). Written and directed by Mumblecore movement maven Greta Gerwig, the picture is also ostensibly semi-autobiographical, since the Sacramento native attended an all-girls Catholic school before moving to Manhattan to attend Barnard College.
A delightful crowd pleaser well deserving of Oscar nominations for Best Picture, Best Actress, Best Director and Best Original Screenplay!
Excellent (4 stars)
Rated R for profanity, sexuality, teen partying and brief graphic nudity
Production Company: Scott Rudin Productions/ IAC Films / Management 360
Distributor: A24

Q: Precision resistor on ADC voltage reference pins When reading an RTD temperature using an ADC, the following topology is usually used:

Most guidelines insist that a precision resistor (0.1%) be used for RREF (inside red rectangle). I believe the reason for this practice, is to use the full range of the ADC device (correct me if I'm wrong). Would any problem arise if I don't need to use the full range of the ADC and I use a normal resistor with 5% accuracy instead of a precision one? Keep in mind that a full scale system calibration will be performed and I have also performed all calculations to make sure nothing goes outside the acceptable limits of the ADC.

A: The designator of the component should be a clue-\$R_{REF}\$.. it's the REFERENCE resistor to which your RTD value is compared.
The calculation of the RTD should use the ratio of the ADC readings of the sensor and thee reference resistor.
You MUST have an accurate and stable reference resistor if you want an accurate and stable reading. On the other hand, the ADC reference VOLTAGE drops out of the equation so as long as it is stable enough that readings of the reference resistor and RTD are made with essentially the same reference voltage, then it can be inaccurate and/or drift around slowly with temperature and/or time.
Yes, you could calibrate out the initial inaccuracy of a 5% resistor, but a 5% resistor is highly likely to severely compromise the accuracy of reading even a cheap thin-film RTD due to temperature shift and drift over time and other factors.

By: Steven Ewing
No surprise, Porsche's fast wagon is a hoot and a half.
– Victoria, Canada
Tall trees and green grass flank either side of an empty, winding, sun-soaked road in British Columbia. Behind the wheel of the Porsche Panamera Turbo, these lush surroundings seem to fly by at warp speed. The biturbo V8 roars as it sends massive power to all four wheels, and I'm tossing this Panamera through corners like it's a 911, smiling and laughing maniacally, manhandling this big Porsche with generous chutzpah.
Indeed, these words could be plucked straight from my recent review of the Panamera Turbo. But this time around, I've got an extra reason to giggle. This isn't just any Panamera, it's the Sport Turismo. The wagon. The 550-horsepower, 567-pound-feet Porsche station wagon. And holy crap, it's purple.
For as tactile and agile as the Turbo Sport Turismo is on great back roads, it is still an exemplary grand tourer.
The best thing about the new Sport Turismo – aside from, you know, wagon – is that none of the intrinsic Panamera-ness is lost in the reshaping of its rump. From the B-pillar forward, the Turismo is identical to the standard Panamera, and the butt-lift only adds 88 pounds that, I promise, you cannot feel from behind the wheel.
Switch the drive mode to Sport Plus, mash the throttle, and 60 miles per hour arrives in the same 3.4 seconds as the standard Panamera Turbo, when fitted with Porsche's Sport Chrono package. All-wheel drive is standard across the Sport Turismo range, which means no rear-end skittishness under hard launches, or any funny business from that reshaped tail during fast cornering.
Every single compliment I can give to the normal Panamera Turbo applies to the Sport Turismo. The steering is brilliant, with great levels of both weight and feedback that inspire incredible confidence as I push the wagon harder and harder down unfamiliar Canadian roads. Whether on the standard 20-inch wheels or the optional 21s, the ride quality is superb, with enough cushion to reduce jarring impacts on broken pavement, but great amounts of stiffness to eliminate body roll or any wafting tendencies. You could drive this thing clear across Canada and never experience discomfort. For as tactile and agile as the Turbo Sport Turismo is on great back roads, it is still an exemplary grand tourer.
The best thing about the new Sport Turismo – aside from, you know, wagon – is that none of the intrinsic Panamera-ness is lost in the reshaping of its rump.
If the 550-hp, $154,000 Turbo version isn't your thing, Porsche will happily sell you less powerful (and less expensive) versions of the Sport Turismo. The base Panamera 4 uses the company's biturbo 3.0-liter V6 with 330 hp, the 4S gets the 2.9-liter biturbo V6 from the Audi RS5 and ups the ante to 440 hp, and the 4 E-Hybrid straps a big electric motor to that 2.9-liter V6 for a total system output of 462 hp.
A brief stint in the E-Hybrid reveals it to be a particularly interesting choice. What I love most is the stark Jekyll-and-Hyde contrast between the two ends of the E-Hybrid's driving spectrum. On one hand, you can effortlessly cruise under full EV power for up to 31 miles, but turn the drive mode switch on the steering wheel one click to the left, and Sport Plus mode lights a fire under the hood. The engine powers on with full force, the throttle response sharpens, the exhaust opens up. Earn quiet applause from your eco-minded colleagues as you silently start up your electrified Panamera, and then yell "just kidding, suckaaaaas!" as you activate Sport Plus and drive off in a cacophony of raspy six-cylinder wail. Yeah, it's a hybrid. But it's also a Porsche, so…
That also means the 4 E-Hybrid is just as nice to steer as the other Sport Turismo models. Running the same gorgeous roads north of Victoria, the electrified model rewards me with the same great dynamics as the Turbo. It's slower, yes – a full second slower 0-60 than the Turbo – but important factors like overall balance and levels of feedback are just as high here. Don't let the electric-green badge accents and brake calipers distract you: this isn't just a hybrid, it's a Panamera hybrid. Wagon. Wee!
If you're eyeing the Sport Turismo solely for its practicality, maybe try the Cayenne instead.
As for practical wagon stuff, I'll call the Sport Turismo good but not great. There's a bit more room in the back seats because of the higher roofline, with two- or three-abreast seating configurations available. With the back seats up, you're treated to 18.3 cubic feet of storage space, which isn't even one more cubic foot than the standard Panamera. Even with the seats folded, cargo space only grows by 3 cubic feet (46 for the hatchback, 49 for the wagon). That's plenty of room for lots of luggage or several homes' worth of groceries, but if you're eyeing the Sport Turismo solely for its practicality, maybe try the Cayenne instead.
Of course, if you're eyeing the Sport Turismo for its shape and panache, I can't say I blame you. This thing looks killer from all angles, with a sleek longroof shape, wide rear haunches, and a rear end devoid of an enormous, retractable wing. That said, there is a retractable spoiler built into the, uh, spoiler, but it only activates at very high speeds or when the panoramic sunroof is fully open, to aid with aerodynamics. It's like a cute little aero flap, and nothing more.
Everything else is carryover Panamera stuff, right down to the interior materials and onboard technology. You get the full cockpit experience from the regular Panamera, complete with 12.3-inch touchscreen for the Porsche Communication Management infotainment system, as well as the flat touch-surface panel that surrounds the petite shifter for the eight-sped dual-clutch transmission. Rear occupants are treated to PCM touchscreens mounted to the front seats, and if you opt for the four-passenger layout, there are more controls and storage cubbies in the console that runs between the two rear chairs.
If you're already going to spend upwards of $100k on one of these, what's an extra five grand for something that's a little more functional and a lot more interesting?
As far as I'm concerned, there are only three reasons why you'd buy a normal Panamera instead of the Sport Turismo: 1) You want the base, two-wheel-drive model; 2) You want to spend $200,000 on the 680-hp Turbo S E-Hybrid that isn't available as a Sport Turismo (which I've also driven – stay tuned); or 3) You hate things that are cool. The added cost of the Sport Turismo is between $4,000 and $6,000, depending on model, with the base Panamera 4 starting at $96,200. And, come on, if you're already going to spend upwards of $100,000 on one of these, what's an extra five grand for something that's a little more functional and a lot more interesting?
Besides, it's not like weird Porsche wagons are a dime a dozen; this is a car that exists not because it has to, but because it can. It's a thrill to drive and something elegant to behold. It is the pure essence of the already fantastic Panamera, with more room for the life you bring along.

After Perilous Atlantic Journey, Migrants Await Their Fate in Canary Island Hotels
PUERTO RICO, Spain — After braving the Atlantic on a rickety and overcrowded fishing boat for six days, a bunch of younger Senegalese has spent the previous three weeks in a three-star resort within the Canary Islands, overlooking a spectacular seashore lapped by pristine waters.
While relieved to have survived their perilous journey to the Canary Islands, which has change into essentially the most lethal crossing from Africa into Europe for migrants, the six younger males additionally know that their resort keep shouldn't be a fairy-tale finish to their odyssey.
"After this crazy trip, I am happy to be alive, but I really have no idea how long I can stay here and where I can go next," mentioned Ousseynou Diop, 19, who boarded the fishing boat within the Senegalese port of Saint-Louis on Nov. 1.
About 20,000 migrants have reached the Canary Islands up to now this yr, regardless of a number of lethal shipwrecks off Senegal and different African nations, in addition to some that occurred simply because the boats had been reaching the shores of the Spanish archipelago. At least 568 folks have died whereas crossing from Africa to the Spanish islands between January and late November, in accordance with the International Organization for Migration.
The sudden inflow of migrants has caught the Spanish authorities flat-footed, despite the fact that rights activists and different consultants had been warning that traffickers had been more likely to divert to the Canary Islands after a rise in patrols nearly shut down many Mediterranean routes into Europe, notably from Libya.
Instead, Spain is now pressuring its companions within the European Union to ascertain a system to distribute migrants equitably throughout member nations, and asking Morocco and different African nations to take again these with out a authorized declare to stay, at a time when journey restrictions associated to the coronavirus have significantly difficult deportations.
"We are the southern border of Europe, not of Spain," Hana Jalloul, Spain's migration secretary, mentioned in a video convention name with a bunch of overseas correspondents late final month. Other European nations that obtain fewer migrants "should take into account our situation," she added.
The regular inflow of migrants is hitting Spain because the coronavirus has stifled its economic system, notably its cornerstone, tourism. Since March, the Canary Islands have solely seen a fraction of the 13 million vacationers who got here final yr for the seashores and the delicate local weather, a lot in demand through the European winter. In October, there have been 88 p.c fewer overseas guests than in the identical month final yr.
Since the summer season, as an emergency answer, the Spanish authorities has moved about 6,000 migrants from tents in Arguineguín, a port on Gran Canaria, one of many most important islands of the archipelago, to 17 accommodations which were shuttered by the pandemic, a number of of them within the seashore city of Puerto Rico.
The transfer was initially welcomed by native hoteliers, who acquired about 45 euros, or $55, a day from the authorities in return for offering meals and lodgings for every migrant, however tensions have constructed up because the stream of arrivals has proven no signal of easing.
Late final month, a whole lot of residents demonstrated to demand the departure of the migrants, saying that their presence might deter European vacationers because the winter season begins.
"We should put them on planes and send them home, because we have people living here who have invested a lot of money to fill this beautiful place with tourists, and certainly not migrants," mentioned one of many protesters, Teresa García Llarena, a pensioner and former worker of a automobile rental firm.
The island's most important affiliation of hoteliers didn't again the protest, however its Dutch president, Tom Smulders, mentioned that "this crisis situation has got as far as it could go" and he urged Spain's authorities to evacuate all migrants from accommodations by the top of the yr.
The mayor of the municipality that features Puerto Rico, Onalia Bueno, warned in an interview that tour operators might quickly cease providing stays in Puerto Rico and different Canary Island resorts due to the "wrong image" given by the migrants. "Tourism and migration are simply not compatible," she mentioned.
Even although vacationers now occupy solely 7 p.c of the resort beds operated by members of his affiliation, Mr. Smulders forecast that the variety of holidaymakers from northern Europe would rise quickly as soon as airways reopened extra routes to the archipelago. The Canary Islands have maintained a low degree of Covid-19 an infection, he mentioned, by following strict lockdown guidelines and likewise requiring all guests to check for coronavirus earlier than touring.
"Winter is our main tourism season, and when you come as a tourist, you don't want to be next to a building that is filled with migrants," mentioned Mr. Smulders.
Spain's authorities is led by a Socialist prime minister, Pedro Sánchez, and the regional authorities of the Canary Islands can also be Socialist-led. But the politicians have struggled to coordinate their response to the islands' migration disaster. The archipelago's politicians say the central authorities reacted too late and is now scrambling to rebuild infrastructure that was unnecessarily dismantled after 2006, when the islands final witnessed a mass inflow, with about 36,000 arrivals that yr.
Once the Mediterranean grew to become more durable to cross for migrants, "We had the capacity to do a lot more to prepare for this, but I think that somebody in Madrid thought that the Canary Islands had somehow magically changed their location on the map and migrants would never get here again," Noemí Santana, the regional minister for social rights within the Canary Islands, mentioned in an interview.
While grownup migrants are the duty of the central authorities, Ms. Santana and her officers act as authorized guardians for about 2,000 underage and unaccompanied migrants scattered throughout a number of youth facilities.
Their quantity has quadrupled since January and, just like the adults, the kids are principally Moroccans. Many first traveled from inland Morocco to the shores of the Western Sahara, a longstanding territorial battle space the place hostilities lately resumed.
Saïd, 16, and his cousin Mohamed, 17, left their city of El Kelaa des Srarhna, northeast of the tourism hub of Marrakesh, to succeed in Dakhla, within the Western Sahara, the place they then boarded a ship sure for the Canary Islands.
Saïd mentioned his elder brother paid traffickers about €1,000 for his journey. "The young people in Morocco can now only look forward to misery, because there is the coronavirus, so really no way to work and earn money," mentioned Saïd, whose full identify can't be disclosed underneath Spanish guidelines that defend underage migrants.
Saïd and his cousin are in a youth middle with a makeshift prayer space, a soccer pitch and leafy environment, within the grounds of an deserted farmhouse.
One of the administrators of the native nongovernment affiliation working the middle, Enrique Quintana, mentioned his job at instances felt like "looking after vulnerable babies," as a result of "migrating to another country with a different language and culture means that you really start again from zero, whatever you might have achieved before in your life."
Like all his companions from Senegal within the Puerto Rico resort, Mr. Diop barely hung out in school and as a substitute grew to become a fisherman when he was 12.
However, he mentioned he struggled to outlive, with Covid-19 restrictions hurting the native fishing business, already underneath strain from Chinese trawlers working in Senegalese waters.
Mr. Diop mentioned he left Senegal with out telling his household and now hoped to get journey paperwork to succeed in Madrid, whose most well-known soccer crew, Real Madrid, he loves. But underlining his lack of preparations, he sounded shocked to be taught that Madrid was a landlocked capital.
"If I cannot fish in Madrid, I will do anything else that gets me money," he mentioned. "I don't recommend that anybody try to get to the islands like I did by boat — it's far too dangerous — but I also don't want to be back in Senegal, where we sold our sea to the Chinese."
