Australia endorses defence relationship with Spain
Minister Pyne and Minister Dolores de Cospedal
key enablers | 07 June 2017 | Reporter
Australia has continued to strengthen its defence relationship with Spain, with Minister for Defence Industry Christopher Pyne meeting with one of his key Spanish counterparts in Sydney.
Minister Pyne and Spain's Minister for Defence Maria Dolores de Cospedal met to discuss both countries' defence industries, as well as Australia's $90 billion naval shipbuilding program.
Spanish company Navantia is currently tendering for the SEA 5000 Future Frigates project and is up against Italian company Fincantieri and BAE Systems.
Following the meeting, Minister Pyne paid tribute to Spain and its role as a global partner for Australia.
"Spain is a valued partner for Australia and our increasing defence and materiel co-operation is a sign of the strength of our bilateral relationship," he said.
"As Australia embarks on a substantial renewal of our defence capabilities, including one of the most ambitious shipbuilding programs in the world, we seek to do so with global partners like Spain.
"Spain's proven shipbuilding ability, and the capability of ships such as the Cristóbal Colón, demonstrate why Navantia is one of three international designers shortlisted for Australia's Future Frigate program."
Minister de Cospedal will also visit the Spanish frigate Cristóbal Colón in Sydney for familiarisation training for Royal Australian Navy personnel ahead of commissioning the first of Navy's new Air Warfare Destroyers, HMAS Hobart, later this year.
The Cristóbal Colón has been in Australia since March, after docking in Adelaide's Outer Harbour wharf. The Spanish frigate is aiming to demonstrate some of the capabilities Navantia has on offer for its SEA 5000 bid.
Minister Pyne toured the frigate when it was in Adelaide, praising the frigate's capabilities, as well as Navantia's operational skills.
"The Cristóbal Colón is a highly capable vessel and demonstrates the kind of capability that Navantia are offering in the Future Frigate project," Minister Pyne said
"Navantia was instrumental in turning around the Air Warfare Destroyer program in Australia, taking the Osborne shipyard to internationally competitive standards.
"Navantia's ability to run shipyards, Australia's long relationship with Spain and the capability of ships like the Cristóbal Colón are among the reasons Navantia were downselected for Australia's Future Frigate program."

Verizon Declares 5G War on AT&T, Promises 30-Plus Cities This Year
By Daniel Bean
A day after becoming the first wireless carrier to offer the Samsung Galaxy S10 5G, Verizon said more than 30 cities will have the faster networking standard by the end of 2019.
It's been a big week for Verizon's 5G ambitions. Yesterday (Feb. 20), Big Red said it would be the first to offer the 5G version of Samsung's Galaxy S10 later this spring, before the phone makes its way to other wireless carriers. Verizon's following that up with a promise that it will bring its 5G network to more than 30 cities before the end of the 2019.

Though Verizon didn't say which cities are on its list to get 5G this year, it did make clear that it was talking about its new 5G Ultra Wideband service, powered by millimeter wave spectrum. That's different from the 5G Home fixed broadband the company launched in cities like Houston, Indianapolis, Los Angeles and Sacramento late last year.
A test of the carrier's progress in true 5G speeds was displayed at CES this January, where download rates of 900 Mbps were shown off. Full speeds of the standard are eventually expected to reach into gigabit levels.

Since the millimeter waves that wireless 5G requires can't travel as far as the spectrums used in 4G and 3G, true mobile wireless 5G will require tons and tons of new small cells to be placed throughout cities closer to where people are using the network. Deployment will be a big job, and it's unclear how well covered the 30-plus cities that Verizon is promising to launch in will be. But since Verizon's chief network engineering officer Nicki Palmer described the carrier's progress as "full speed ahead" late last year, it seems the company is moving forward with its 5G plans.
Beyond the Galaxy S10 5G, Verizon is also set to offer a 5G Moto Mod for the Moto Z3, which is available exclusively through the carrier.
At this point, all four of the major carriers have said they are working on 5G networks. AT&T, slightly ahead of the game, is already live with next-gen wireless in 12 cities (opens in new tab). It's pledged to bring 5G to at least 9 more cities this year, bringing its total to more than 20 cities. That's not with the controversial 5G Evolution logo it's brought to its phones that are still running 4G, but actual millimeter-wave wireless. Though select small businesses are testing the tech for the carrier, consumer devices to run on its real 5G network won't be available until sometime later this year.
T-Mobile, like Verizon, has also thrown out a "30 cities" promise, saying last year that it's started deploying equipment and that New York City, Los Angeles, Dallas and Las Vegas will be the first to come online sometime this year.
Sprint has also been deploying equipment to build its 5G network, and it even placed what it's calling the "world's first 5G data call" on one of its towers in San Diego this January. That same month, the company promised to launch a 5G phone from Samsung this summer — let's assume that's the S10 once Verizon's exclusive period ends — and rumor has it that LG's 5G-ready V50 could be introduced at this month's Mobile World Congress as a Sprint exclusive.

CBO Means 'Can't Bank on It'
Ernest Istook
Call it the tipping point. Or the point of no return.
While many fixate on bogus claims that phantom healthcare legislation bill will reduce the deficit, the new Congressional Budget Office (CBO) report shows that bill would quickly shift 37 million Americans to government-paid healthcare.
Added to 87 million already on taxpayer health programs (Medicare, Medicaid, military) and about 8 million in children's programs, the tilt is accelerating against private care and insurance.
Whoever pays your bills gets to pick your doctor and decide what care you can receive. So be nice to Uncle Sam.
The CBO projected the 37 million figure based on the leading proposal from the Senate Finance Committee, even though that plan still isn't written. And that's just for starters: A study done for The Heritage Foundation projects that 103 million Americans eventually would be moved into government-run care under the House-backed proposal.
But CBO calculates that 13 million more people would get care by expanding Medicaid and children's programs; 23 million would get subsidies to help pay premiums as they are put into government-run "insurance exchanges." It's all done by expanding the definitions of who qualifies as needy.
And for everyone else? We get to pay for it. As Sen. Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, said, "Most Americans with health insurance will see their premiums increase." By how much? Nobody will know until Senate secrecy ends and lawmakers release actual language. But one projection says an extra $900 a year for a family of four.
Yet the rush is on to persuade Americans that everything is okay because the deficit — a monstrous $1.4 trillion a year right now — won't get worse. CBO says that, by enlarging government, we nevertheless knock off an average $8 billion a year from the deficit. Compared with $1.4 trillion, it's less than half of one percent improvement in the annual deficit. And even that's artificial.
Yet the spin is out there. Two typical headlines said, "CBO Says Senate Health Bill Would Expand Coverage, Reduce Deficit" and "Healthcare Bill Gets Green Light in Cost Analysis."
"Reduces the deficit" is newspeak code that means "raises taxes" while making government ever-bigger. In this case, the tax increases are about $227 billion, says the CBO. The overall cost is projected at $829 billion. That's not a guaranteed figure. CBO could stand for "Can't Bank On it" because projections are notoriously understated. Their analysis of Sen. Max Baucus' proposal admits as much, stating that it's "subject to substantial uncertainty."
That caveat is missing from many media reports. Also overlooked is CBO's caution that it has not been given legislative language to review (who has?), and so was required to follow only the "outlines" the committee provided, plus what CBO labels "the major additional corrections and clarifications provided by the committee staff."
Nobody can check CBO's numbers because a lot are based on oral conversations and private communication. That's further proof the public's right to know is denied while glowing claims are given to the media. Nobody can read or analyze the bill until it exists; the process needs to be slowed down so we all can see the dirty details.
In addition to higher taxes, the entire charade also depends upon phantom savings to support the claim of cutting the deficit. $404 billion, according to the CBO, would come from reducing Medicare spending. If such savings actually happened, they should be used to shore up Medicare's shaky finances, not to justify an expansion of government.
But it's fantasy to think such savings will occur. "These projections assume that the proposals are enacted and remain unchanged throughout the next two decades, which is often not the case," the CBO writes. "The long-term budgetary impact could be quite different if those provisions were ultimately changed or not fully implemented."
Year after year, Congress has claimed it would make future reductions in Medicare spending and doctor and hospital payments. Then lawmakers consistently vote to repeal the reductions before they occur.
All supposed savings should be accomplished and put in the bank before Congress spends it.
Everything in the legislation unravels once you recognize it's built upon phony claims of savings and very real claims of tax increases. And for what? To expand the number of people with health coverage from the current 85 percent to what they claim will be a 94 percent level, by raising taxes and dictating that everyone must buy insurance. Yet Grassley says the bill "still leaves 25 million people without health insurance. That's not much bang for the buck." Adding more taxes to pay for more subsidies would send costs even higher.
Congress has abandoned the pretense of making care more affordable to focus on making government bigger.
Even liberal Democrats are rebelling against those new taxes, which would come mostly from taxing existing health insurance (by claiming that it's "high-end" coverage). This week 157 Democrats — 60 percent of those in the House — sent Speaker Nancy Pelosi a mass letter objecting to this plan. Now Speaker Pelosi has floated the notion of a European style VAT tax instead. Another big new tax, this time on everyone.
Despite some media raves, the Baucus plan is not a magic bullet. But it is a typical liberal approach to tax everyone else for a big government giveaway.
It's more proof that the era of big government is not over — it's overwhelming.

End of year Downtown Economic Indicators for 2017, prepared by the city's Economic Development Director Terry Masterson, are available on the tabs below. View a copy of the full press release (PDF) along with a copy of the news article (PDF) from the Hampshire Gazette.
There are 232 retail businesses within Downtown Northampton compared with approximately 74 stores in Amherst and 82 in Easthampton. The estimates for Amherst and Easthampton are based on a walk through of their downtowns.
The 2017 inventory total of 232 represents an adjustment from 220 stores in 2016. The addition of 12 stores includes 2 new stores, 3 Pleasant Street stores and 7 second floor retailers.
Storefron YE 2017 YE 2016 2016-July 2016-Jan.
Attendance is based either on direct data from the venues listed below or conservative estimates have been made. For example, Northampton's major hotels attract thousands of visitors who stay for more than one day and will generate more local consumer spending than a day visitor. Hotel data is proprietary so a conservative estimate of 50% occupancy with 1.5 guests per room has been calculated.
Northampton's retail rents lead the market locally, regionally and even compare to major retail markets in Connecticut and New York. All rental amounts are per square foot.

George Nicolaou, judges,
and {Soren} Nielsen, Section Registrar,
Having deliberated in private on 18 March 2010,
1. The case originated in an application (No. 33105/05) against the Russian Federation lodged with the Court under Article 34 of the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms ("the Convention") by two Russian nationals, Mr Lomali (also spelled as Lom-Ali) Mudayev and Ms Malkan Mudayeva ("the applicants"), on 25 July 2005.
2. The applicants, who were granted legal aid, were represented by lawyers of the Centre of Assistance to International Protection, an NGO based in Moscow. The Russian Government ("the Government") were represented by the First Deputy Minister of Justice Mr A. Savenkov and subsequently by the Representative of the Russian Federation at the European Court of Human Rights Mr G. Matyushkin.
3. On 1 April 2008 the Court decided to give notice of the application to the Government. Under the provisions of Article 29 § 3 of the Convention, it decided to examine the merits of the application at the same time as its admissibility. On 2 April 2008 it decided to apply Rule 41 of the Rules of Court and to grant priority treatment to the application.
4. The Government objected to the joint examination of the admissibility and merits of the application. Having considered the Government's objection, the Court dismissed it.
I. The circumstances of the case
5. The applicants were born in 1950 and 1948 respectively. They live in Raduzhnoye, in the Grozny district, Chechnya. The applicants are the father and aunt of Aslan Mudayev, who was born in 1985, and Mokhmad Mudayev, who was born in 1982. The first applicant had a third son, Mr Akhmad Mudayev, who was killed in July 2003.
A. Disappearance of Aslan and Mokhmad Mudayev
1. The applicants' account
a. The abduction of Aslan and Mokhmad Mudayev
6. On 29 January 2003 Russian military servicemen conducted a special operation in the village of Raduzhnoye in the Grozny district of Chechnya. More than twenty persons were apprehended as a result of the operation, including Aslan and Mokhmad Mudayev and another of the applicants' relatives, Mr Islam A. At the material time the village was under the full control of the federal forces.
7. At about 8 a.m. on 29 January 2003 the first applicant and his sons Aslan and Mokhmad Mudayev and other relatives, including Mr Israil M. and Mr Islam A., were in their family home situated in Raduzhnoye. The first applicant heard noise coming from the street and looked out of the window. He saw a group of armed men in camouflage uniforms and masks running into his yard. The men entered the house and ordered everyone to lie face down on the floor. They neither introduced themselves nor produced any documents.
8. The intruders ordered the first applicant to hand over his family members' passports and the family photographs. Upon receiving the documents and the photographs, the men took Aslan Mudayev, Mokhmad Mudayev and the first applicant's nephew Mr Islam A. outside.
9. The first applicant attempted to follow his relatives, but the armed men in the yard threatened to kill him. Meanwhile, the applicant's sons and nephew were put in a grey UAZ car ("таблетка").
10. Sometime later the first applicant managed to go outside and saw a convoy of ten to twelve vehicles, including a grey UAZ car, two or three khaki coloured UAZ-469 cars and an APC (armoured personnel carrier) driving away in the direction of Grozny.
11. On the following day of 30 January 2003 all persons detained during the special operation, except for Aslan and Mokhmad Mudayev, were released.
b. The subsequent events
12. Immediately after the apprehension of Aslan and Mokhmad Mudayev the applicants and their relatives started searching for them.
13. The applicants' relative, Mr Israil M., who was at the first applicant's house during the abduction, immediately followed the convoy of military vehicles in his VAZ car with two female relatives. On the way to Grozny the abductors' vehicles split into two groups. One of them, comprised of the APC and several UAZ cars, drove in the direction of the nearby village of Znamenskoye in the Nadterechniy district, while the other proceeded in the direction of Grozny.
14. When the group arrived at Znamenskoye, the vehicles drove to the building of the Nadterechniy district department of the Federal Security Service ("the Nadterechniy district department of the FSB") and the Nadterechniy district department of the interior ("the Nadterechniy ROVD"). Some of the vehicles drove onto the agencies' premises.
15. Mr Israil M. and relatives of other men apprehended during the operation in Raduzhnoye decided to wait at the entrance to the FSB building. Several hours later Mr Israil M. managed to talk to the head of the Nadterechniy district department of the FSB Mr Mayrbek Kh. (also known as Mairbek Kh.; in the documents submitted he was also referred to as Mr M.Kh.) The latter told him that he would not release his relatives until two prosecution officials who had been abducted several days ago had been returned. He told Mr Israil M. that he knew about the involvement of the first applicant's other son, Akhmad Mudayev, in the abduction of the two officials. The officer threatened that if within the next two days Mr Israil M. did not return the two prosecutors or bring Akhmad Mudayev to their office, he would hand over Mr Israil's apprehended relatives to military servicemen in Khankala, the main base of the Russian federal forces in Chechnya.
16. Subsequently the applicants and their relatives spoke with Akhmad Mudayev, who told them that he had not participated in the prosecutors' abduction and refused to go to the district department of the FSB.
17. Within the next five or six months Mr Israil M. had regular meetings with Mr Mayrbek Kh. The latter insisted on his demands.
18. On 3 July 2003 the first applicant's elder son Akhmad Mudayev was killed in a skirmish. After that Mr Mayrbek Kh. told the first applicant that at some point Russian military forces had taken Aslan and Mokhmad Mudayev from his department under false identities and that he did not have any information concerning the brothers' whereabouts.
c. Information obtained by the applicants about the detention of Aslan and Mokhmad Mudayev
19. The first applicant's nephew, Mr Islam A., who had been apprehended with Aslan and Mokhmad Mudayev, was released on 30 January 2003. Mr Islam A. told the applicants that he had been put in one cell with Aslan and Mokhmad Mudayev. In the evening of 29 January 2003 he had been questioned by Mr Mayrbek Kh., the head of the Nadterechniy district department of the FSB.
20. In February 2003 Mr Mayrbek Kh. arrived at the mosque of the Raduzhnoye village. He told a number of local residents gathered there that Aslan and Mokhmad Mudayev had been detained in the FSB building. One of the local residents, Mr Arsanuka M., asked him whether any criminal charges had been brought against the brothers. In response the officer told him that he would release Aslan and Mokhmad Mudayev only if their elder brother Akhmad surrendered to the authorities.
21. Mr Aslan A., who had been detained for some time with the Mudayev brothers in the FSB building and released, told the applicants that during the detention, Aslan and Mokhmad Mudayev had been beaten and questioned separately from each other.
22. On 10 May 2003 (in the documents submitted the date 12 May 2003 was also given) an explosion occurred in the building of the Nadterechniy district department of the FSB and partially destroyed it. In the evening of 10 May 2003 Aslan and Mokhmad Mudayev were taken from the building to an unknown destination. There has been no news about the brothers ever since.
23. In support of their statements the applicants submitted: an account by the first applicant (undated); an account by Mr Israil M. dated 12 November 2003; an account by Mr Islam A. dated 14 November 2003; an account by Mr Khavashi K. (undated); an account by Mr Arsanuka M. (undated); an account by Mr Amin K. (undated) and copies of documents received from the authorities.
2. Information submitted by the Government
24. The Government did not challenge most of the facts as presented by the applicants. According to their submission of 25 July 2008 "...on 29 September 2003 an investigator of the Grozny district prosecutor's office initiated an investigation of criminal case No. 42172 opened in connection with the abduction of Aslan and Mokhmad Mudayev under Article 126 § 2 of the Criminal Code...".
25. In the same submission, referring to the contents of criminal case No. 42172, the Government further stated:
"...on 29 January 2003 in the village of Raduzhnoye in the Nadterechniy district of Chechnya officers of the Nadterechniy district department of the FSB conducted a special operation. The goal of the operation was the identification of persons who had abducted employees of the Chechnya prosecutor's office. In the course of the criminal investigation [of the Mudayev brothers' abduction] the head of the Nadterechniy district department of the FSB, Mr M.Kh., who was in charge of the operation, was questioned by the investigators.
[According to his statement] during the operation Aslan and Mokhmad Mudayev had been brought to the Nadterechniy district department of the FSB in connection with the abduction of the officials from the Chechnya prosecutor's office. As a result of the questioning it had been established that Aslan and Mokhmad Mudayev had not been involved in the abduction of the prosecution officials. After that Aslan and Mokhmad Mudayev had been released."
26. The Government also submitted:
"...on 12 May 2003 a terrorist act was committed in the village of Znamenskoye in the Nadterechniy district. As a result, the building of the Nadterechniy district department of the FSB was partially destroyed. Procedural documents, explanations and statements by Aslan and Mokhmad Mudayev were [also] destroyed."
B. The search for Aslan and Mokhmad Mudayev
and the investigation
1. Information submitted by the applicants
a. The official investigation into the abduction
27. The applicants and their relatives also contacted, both in person and in writing, various official bodies, such as the Chechen administration, military commanders' offices, departments of the interior and prosecutors' offices at different levels, asking for help in establishing the whereabouts of Aslan and Mokhmad Mudayev. The applicants retained copies of a number of those complaints and submitted them to the Court. An official investigation was opened by the local prosecutor's office. The relevant information is summarised below.
28. According to the applicants, from January 2003 to August 2003, on a number of occasions, they complained in person to the Nadterechniy district prosecutor's office about the abduction of their relatives.
29. On 22 September 2003 a local human rights organisation complained on behalf of the applicants and their relatives to the Grozny district prosecutor's office about the abduction of Aslan and Mokhmad Mudayev.
30. On 29 September 2003 the Chechnya prosecutor's office forwarded the applicants' complaint about the abduction of their relatives to the Grozny district prosecutor's office.
31. On 15 January 2004 the applicants' representatives wrote to the Chechnya prosecutor's office. They described in detail the circumstances of the Mudayev brothers' abduction during the special operation conducted by the Nadterechniy district department of the FSB on 29 January 2003. The letter stated that the brothers had been taken to the detention centre of the district department of the FSB; they had been detained there until 10 May 2003, when they had been taken away in an unknown direction. According to the information obtained by the applicants from the persons who had been detained together with Aslan and Mokhmad Mudayev from January to May 2003, the conditions of their detention had been inhuman; the brothers had been beaten, had marks of ill-treatment on their bodies and fallen ill. After May 2003, according to some witnesses, the conditions of their detention in another place had also been inhuman; the brothers had been severely beaten and bound by adhesive tape. According to the letter, the applicants and their relatives had spoken with the head of the Nadterechniy district department of the FSB Mr Mayrbek Kh. who had told them that the release of the two Mudayev brothers would be possible only in exchange for their elder brother Akhmad. The letter further stated that the applicants had complained about the arrest and detention of Aslan and Mokhmad Mudayev to a number of authorities, including the Nadterechniy district prosecutor's office, the Nadterechniy district department of the FSB, the Grozny district prosecutor's office and the Chechnya prosecutor's office. Referring to the European Convention on Human Rights the applicants requested the following information: on what grounds the Mudayev brothers had been arrested; whether any criminal charges had been brought against them and if so, what stage the criminal investigation was at; which authorities had issued the warrant for their arrest and where exactly the brothers had been detained. Finally, the applicants requested the authorities to ensure their safety and the safety of the witnesses to the abduction of Aslan and Mokhmad Mudayev.
32. On 11 February and 16 September 2004 the Chechnya prosecutor's office informed the applicants that on 29 September 2003 the Grozny district prosecutor's office had initiated an investigation into the abduction of Aslan and Mokhmad Mudayev.
33. On 28 April 2004 the Chechnya Department of Human Rights and Freedoms wrote

                    date1               date2   text1   text2
index
1     2021-01-20 19:17:02 2021-01-22 19:15:02  sadasd  asdasd
2     2021-01-22 15:12:02 2021-01-23 19:15:02  sadasd  asdasd
3     2021-01-23 13:17:02 2021-01-24 19:15:02  sadasd  asdasd
4     2021-01-24 18:17:02 2021-01-25 19:15:02  sadasd  asdasd

можно сделать так:
today = pandas.to_datetime('today').normalize()
res = df[((today - df["date1"]).dt.days >= 3)|((today - df["date2"]).dt.days >= 3)]

тогда res будет:
                    date1               date2   text1   text2
index
1     2021-01-20 19:17:02 2021-01-22 19:15:02  sadasd  asdasd

Если вам нужно, чтобы обе колонки были на 3 дня старше текущей даты, смените оператор | на &.

30-year-old Gemma Palmer (Felicity Kendal) has her own flat, a good job and a steady boyfriend.
Then she discovers that boyfriend Danny (Stephen Moore) has been 'having a fling' with her best friend, Gloria (Susan Bishop).
She gives Danny his marching orders and sets out to make further radical changes to her life.


She was 21 when she married him at 81. She died, this week, at the age of 97.
A judge for the Miss Universe pageant got fired for……waving at the hot chicks who waved at him. Life is very odd.

I have heard that most folks use the stove in their camper as a glorified bread box or pan storage. I figured this camping trip I would actually light the thing and make some biscuits as an easy test. If it failed I planned on yanking it and installing a dish washer. I listened to the advice on this forum and lit up all the top burners to get the air out before attempting to light the pilot. Worked like a charm. I decided to try two approaches to making the biscuits.
buttered foil pan - bad idea, burnt the bottoms badly.
buttered green pan skillet - worked perfectly.
I didn't preheat, instead I just started checking the biscuits at the time recommended on the packaging. It took an extra 7 minutes above and beyond the recommended bake time of 15 minutes but as you can see it worked out great.
Forgot the question. I was curious what others have made in this little oven and if they might share their recipes / techniques.
What do you cook in your RV oven?
We cook everything in ours that requires an oven. It's a little different than the home oven, but it does ok. We have a pizza stone in ours and that helps even out the heat.
Very unlevel brownies. If I recall, my wife installed the rack incorrectly and didn't notice it until after these came out.
These aren't cooked yet, but they came out perfect. I made filling/stuffing/dressing (depending on your region + term) balls for Thanksgiving.

No doubt: The all-new V-Class of Mercedes-Benz is a very stylish Multi Purpose Vehicle with a dynamic presence. So far so good. But what about a distinctive appearance? Luckily HARTMANN TUNING has all you need for a more powerful and individual look.
Size, comfort and sportiness perfectly united in just one car: this is the Mercedes V-Class refined by HARTMANN TUNING. The VANSPORTS-VP-Spirit aerodynamic parts made from ABS (front spoiler, rear spoiler, side skirts) perfectly are in line with the bodywork as well as with the V-Class' character. This dynamic dress is not only stylish but also pretty smart. The rear spoiler lip for example has a removable cover in case the use of a tow-bar becomes necessary.
The color composition of this Mercedes V250 BlueTEC is a real eye-catcher. The black-and white-theme looks very flashy on a car. But thanks to the green spots the hidden Hulk shines through the white giants façade. Talking of an enormous potential, the HARTMANN TUNING Power-V25-chiptuning-box increases the output of the 2.1-litres Diesel from 190 to 224 horsepower – and the maximum torque from 440 to 505 Nm. This sporty performance is accompanied by a voluminous acoustic produced by a sound-module using a sensor/actuator bus. By touching a button, the sound-booster unleashes the roaring beast in the Mercedes which has been a gentle murmuring MPV just a second ago.
VEST-1-rims (8. 5 x 19) with 245/45 tyres in interaction with the 30-mm-lowering are providing a strong contact to the road. Upgrading the inner values of the V-Class is easy with VANSPORTS accessories like an aluminium trim or the door sill panels featuring the attractive HARTMANN TUNING-Logo.

I use HCatalog Streaming Mutation API to write data to hive transactional table, and then, I use SparkSQL to read data from the hive transactional table. I get the right result.
However, SparkSQL uses more time to read hive orc bucket transactional table, beacause SparkSQL read all columns(not The columns involved in SQL) so it uses more time.
My question is why that SparkSQL read all columns of hive orc bucket transactional table, but not the columns involved in SQL? Is it possible to control the SparkSQL read the columns involved in SQL?

Financial statement fraud came clearly into focus as a result of a series of accounting and auditing scandals in the late 1990s and early 2000s. A number of events increased overall awareness of fraud and fraudulent financial reporting. This course will use a case study approach and professional standards and codes of ethics to explore basic ethical frameworks as they pertain to business and accounting scenarios, as well as introduce students to fraud prevention theory and guidelines for practice.


GRAFENWOEHR, Germany — U.S. Army Garrisons Bavaria and Rheinland Pfalz are hosting European Theater Transition Summits March 26-27 and March 28-29.
Organized by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce's Hiring Our Heroes Foundation, the events are focused on helping service members, veterans and military spouses build skills and connections that will lead to employment.
You should mark your calendars now, whether you're transitioning in the next six months or in several years, say event organizers. Here's why.
1. The Transition Summit brings employment resources to our doorstep.
There are a lot of advantages to being stationed in Germany—unique training opportunities and travel, to name two. But some things can be harder from overseas, and transitioning from active duty to civilian life is one of them.
The Transition Summit provides Soldiers, family members and veterans living overseas a career fair experience similar to what you can find stateside, said Anne Fugate, USAG Bavaria Transition Services Manager.
Currently, more than 30 employers are signed up to be on-site during the career fairs, including Amazon, Hilton Worldwide, Lufthansa, and Microsoft.
The Summit includes a town hall-style panel and industry briefs during which employers will talk about job hunting best practices and what they are looking for in applicants. Summit-goers will also be able to talk with employers during a networking event on day one and during the career fair on day two.
Employer feedback is invaluable, said George Brown, event manager for USAG Rheinland-Pfalz, especially if you are new to job hunting outside of the Army.
"The first resume I created when I transitioned looked nothing like the later version that got me a job," Brown said.
Brown notes that the Afterburner Military Transition Seminar on day one goes in-depth on how to communicate what service members offer to employers.
The primary audience for the Summits are Soldiers who are separating or retiring in the next 12-18 months. However, the Summits offer something for all community members—service members, veterans, and military spouses.
Lew Lewis, USAG Rheinland-Pfalz Transition Services Manager, encourages career-minded spouses to attend, whether they are looking for a job locally or preparing for a move.
For spouses or other community members looking for local employment, Lewis notes that the Summits' career fairs include employers with Europe-based positions.
Lewis encourages all service members and spouses to participate in the Summits, even if their transition is a couple years in the future.
To register for the Transition Summits, go to www.uschamberfoundation.org/event/germany-transition-summit.
If you have questions about how to prepare for the event, contact your local Soldier for Life—Transition Assistance Program (Bavaria: DSN 476-2055, CIV 09662-83-2055; Rheinland-Pfalz: DSN 541-1400, CIV 0611-143-541-1400).


Given these numbers, it's not surprising that so many businesses are turning to YouTube to create a video presence. We've created a list of four tips to help you make the most of your YouTube channel.
Your YouTube page is a representation of your business. You should brand it like you would your website or other marketing materials because a consistent look and feel will help reinforce your business and help keep it top of mind with your prospects and customers.
You also want to provide relevant information about your product and business. If someone is surfing around your YouTube channel, he or she is already interested in what you have to offer. You want to capitalize on this momentum and offer additional ways to engage with your company.
The best way to ensure a top-notch customer experience is to share helpful and interesting videos. Of course, a lot of businesses are strapped for time and cash. That means you probably don't have time to come up with a video concept, script it, shoot it, edit it and share it on YouTube. Not worry. There are alternatives.
If you hosted an event or celebrated a milestone, you can take several still pictures with your smartphone and turn those photos into a shareable slideshow with tools like Picasa or PhotoSnack.
You don't need Disney Pixar's animation team to create a cool cartoon, (although wouldn't that be great?) all you need is GoAnimate. This online tool will help you create whiteboard animations or cartoons for your channel.
Shoot a few snippets of video with your smartphone and use video templates to make a movie with WeVideo. The premade video templates up the quality of your production. Plus, this tool comes with a simple video editor to make changes.
If you do want to invest a small budget into video creation tools, check out our post, Video Setup on the Cheap.
Just like every email needs a clear call to action, so does every video you post on your YouTube channel. You can put a clickable call to action on your video by adding an annotation. Check out the screen grab below. See the box on the bottom left? That's an annotation. When it's clicked, the viewer is taken to the product website.
To add annotations to your videos, just go the Video Manager and click Annotations from the menu under Edit.
Type in the call to action that you want. Keep it short, but urgent.
Use the tools to make the annotation the size you want. It can't exceed more than 30 percent of the video.
Select the start and end times to bring the annotation in and out.
Next, add the URL that you want customers to go to and hit Publish.
There are ways to control how viewers see your video. You can control the size of the video and the quality.
You can make these changes by adding specific formatting tags to your video while it's uploading, or after it's done.
When you think of tags, most people think of descriptive keywords that help customers find your video. You're right. You should fill the 'tags' box with keywords, but you can also add several pieces of code to that same box to manipulate the size and quality of your videos.
Once a video is uploaded, go to Video Manager, select Edit and add the appropriate code to the 'tags' box.
Have a video with black bars on the right and left? You can get rid of the bars by zooming the video in. To do so, add this line of code: yt:crop=16:9.
If you want to scale the video down so it fits in a 4:3 player, you'll need to enter this code: yt:stretch=4:3.
To ensure viewers see your video in its highest quality, add the following code to the tag box: yt:quality=high.
With these four tips, you'll impress your audience and improve brand awareness. Once you've conquered these tips, you can shift gears and focus on increasing your subscribers. We have a great video on our blog that can help you do just that. Check it out: How to Gain More Subscribers on YouTube.

The National Weather Service has issued a high wind warning for the Ann Arbor area and all of southeast Michigan in effect until 7 a.m. Saturday.
Sustained winds of 30 to 35 mph with gusts of 45 to 55 mph could down power lines and trees and cause power outages, the Weather Service warned. Scattered outages were already showing on the DTE Energy outage map in parts of southeast Michigan at 10:25 p.m. Friday.
The strongest winds are expected between midnight and 6 a.m. Driving could become difficult, especially for high profile vehicles, such as vans, the Weather Service said.
Temperatures are expected to drop to around 32 overnight and rain and snow showers are possible. Saturday, expect breezy conditions with a high around 39 and a 40 percent chance of snow showers.

Asymmetry in hurricane forecasts: Why you need more than the cone of uncertainty
Jun 15, 2020 | News, Risk Analytics
Jonathan Fairman PhD – Senior Scientist, Meteorology
Understanding the National Hurricane Center's cone of uncertainty
Fig. 1: NHC public advisory for Tropical Depression Three (later Tropical Storm Cristobal), issued on June 2 at 10 AM CDT (15 UTC).
As of June 15, the 2020 hurricane season has already been an eventful one with three named storms, all of which impacted the United States. Arthur's tropical storm-force wind fields impacted the Outer Banks of North Carolina on May 18, Bertha spun up and organized within hours to become a tropical storm and made landfall in South Carolina on May 27 and Cristobal began its life as Tropical Storm Amanda in the eastern Pacific before moving into the Gulf of Mexico and making landfall in Louisiana on June 8. One of the most commonly used evaluations of a storm and its track is the "cone of uncertainty" that is issued by NOAA's National Hurricane Center. However, this cone does not tell the entire story of a storm.
One of the first messages told from the NHC in their graphic is: "The cone contains the probable path of the storm center but does not show the size of the storm. Hazardous conditions may occur outside of the cone". However, it can be difficult to know exactly where these hazardous conditions can occur. It depends on not only the strength of the central circulation of the storm, but also other environmental factors. For Cristobal, this was even more apparent, as the NHC noted several times in their forecast advisories that the tropical storm-force wind field would impact the U.S. coast prior to landfall and extend well east of the center.
Forecasting Tropical Storm Cristobal
On June 2, 2020, Athenium Analytics released an upgrade to our BeaconHurricane product that provides improvements to our best track forecast. These upgrades include new best track precipitation swaths and enhancements to our wind swath forecasts. In the past, we made predictions of the wind footprint based on the strength of the storm and some information on its minimum pressure, which worked fairly well for the vast majority of storms. However, this was generally symmetric around the storm center, which for a storm like Cristobal, could have missed much of the area impacted by tropical storm-force winds. Our new swaths take advantage of our expertise in forecast blending, utilizing data from the American GFS and European ECMWF forecast models to create new footprints of a storm that reflect its true impact and any asymmetries that may be present.
These new swaths performed very well for Cristobal, with our first full forecast after the deployment (Fig. 2) at 10 AM CDT on June 2 producing a wind field that encompassed nearly all of the area impacted by tropical storm-force winds. As our wind swath forecasts extend to 10 days out from the initial time (compared to the NHC five-day cone), we were able to highlight storm impacts on the US Gulf Coast well before the NHC cone did.
As Cristobal became better resolved by the NHC, the size of the cone shrank (Fig 3). This was because of greater certainty in the location of the storm center. However, as the left side of Fig. 3 shows, this means that much of the tropical storm-force wind field of Cristobal fell outside the cone. The Athenium Analytics best track swath (Fig. 3, right) encompassed virtually all of the tropical storm-force winds recorded, including impacts on the east coast of Mexico and in Florida and Alabama that fell outside the NHC forecast cone.
Fig. 2: Left – NHC "cone of uncertainty" for Cristobal on June 2, 2020 issued at 10 AM CDT (15 UTC) with tropical storm-force wind field from NHC best-track analysis (black dots indicating center and orange indicating swath). Right – Our tropical storm-force wind swath (green) with NHC best-track analysis and wind swath (orange) for the BeaconHurricane forecast issued on June 2, 2020 at 10 AM CDT (15 UTC).

A better hurricane forecast tool for insurers
The NHC cone is one of the most commonly used representations of tropical cyclones in the U.S., and it does exceptionally well at what it is designed to do – track the center of a storm's circulation and give an envelope of potential central storm tracks. However, it is not designed to show storm footprints and onshore impacts. With these new enhancements to the Athenium Analytics wind swaths, we have designed a product that extends further in time than the cone and much more accurately identifies areas that are at risk of tropical cyclone activity. Our hurricane forecasts were built using state-of-the-science methodology and leverage our expertise in analysis of atmospheric numerical modeling data. When you need more information than the cone provides, or want to get a better impact on how tropical storm-force or hurricane-force winds may impact your book of business, you can turn to our BeaconHurricane software.

← IS LIFE WORTH LIVING?
It is the heart of Little League season, those spring days when children get their first experience of playing on a team, of learning about the rules of play, and of listening to and heeding their coach. Do you remember that first voice spoken into your ear as you stood at home plate, gripping the bat like a lifeline, waiting for that first pitch?
Bat back to your ear.
Some voices stay with us forever. What voices have spoken into your life? Can you still hear them?
There are voices of encouragement that urge us to keep trying, keep working, keep doing what we know is right.
There are also those voices we hear that accuse us of not being good enough, of being a failure, of not deserving anything better than what we're getting.
The voices we listen to in our heart and soul can strengthen us or shatter us, push us forward or pull us down. The power of the voice we ultimately answer to can determine the destiny and direction of our life.
Friends, listen to (and obey) the voice of God as revealed in the pages of the Bible. His voice is powerful (Rom. 1:16), His voice has the power to save (Jam. 1:21), His voice encourages us (Acts 20:32), and His voice is all we need to make us complete (2 Tim. 3:16-17). Read and study God's word, listen to His voice therein revealed, and be built up.

Q: sql error that i cant solve (7) can anyone help with this error , when i run my code it comes up with error 1005 can't create table my code looks like this can anyone point out the source of this error im using codio mysql if that helps
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS entries (
    entries_id INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
    students_id INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL,
    Date_of_exam DATETIME NOT NULL,
    subjects_id INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL,
    PRIMARY KEY (entries_id),
    FOREIGN KEY (students_id) REFERENCES students(students_id),
    FOREIGN KEY (subjects_id) REFERENCES subjects(subjects_id));

this is the error
mysql> SOURCE task7
ERROR 1005 (HY000): Can't create table 'exams.entries' (errno: 150)

A: This error related to foreign keys. Check following items:

*

*Name of tables and columns that exist on foreign keys are correct.

*Type of foreign keys columns are same.

*Data of foreign keys not conflict with them.

Note: You can disable check foreign key on query. Sure enable this option after query.
SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=0;

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS entries (
  entries_id INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  students_id INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL,
  Date_of_exam DATETIME NOT NULL,
  subjects_id INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (entries_id),
  FOREIGN KEY (students_id) REFERENCES students(students_id),
  FOREIGN KEY (subjects_id) REFERENCES subjects(subjects_id)
);

SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=1;

A: The error itself is related with the foreign keys (as removing them creates the table with no errors).
Main possible causes:

*

*One of the referenced tables doesn't exists

*The field of the referenced tables doesn't exists

*The data types of the referenced table doesn't match (I assume is this).

As i can see your primary key on your table is INT, assuming you use INT as your primary keys, students_id is INT UNSIGNED, possibly the cause of your error.

Today at the Proms - Prom 37
Continuing our daily coverage of what's on at The Proms 2018, Susan Omand has a quick look at the programme for Prom 37: Orchestra of Santa Cecilia & Antonio Pappano ...
Reminder - Watch Prom 33: Brahms's A German Requiem and Prom 35: New York: Sound of a City on BBC Four tonight
An evening of firsts with Mahler's 1st Symphony, which evolved out of music used in previous work and extended through its lifetime from a tone poem to the more conventional four movement work we know today. Before that we get Bernstein's 1st Symphony and the work that introduced the young conductor onto the stage as a composer.
Before all that though, there's a bit of chaos as the overture of Joseph Haydn's Creation oratorio opens tonight's proceedings. An oratorio, by the way, is like an opera without the theatrical bits. It still tells a story, quite often biblical rather than mythical like opera, using orchestra and choir but without the staging, costumes and acting.
Bring on the Chaos!
Here's the full programme for this evening's Prom which you can listen to live on Radio 3 or on the iPlayer
The Creation – Chaos(6 mins)
Symphony No. 1 'Jeremiah'(25 mins)
Symphony No 1 in D major(56 mins)

Dr. Travis Rector's book, Coloring the Universe! It's filled with dazzling photographs of stars, nebulas, galaxies, and so much more taken with telescopes all over the world. The images are beyond stunning, but then he and the other two authors go one step farther and explain how the colors appear in a night sky world we usually see as black-and-white. He will open your eyes. Wow.
This German Pancake recipe. Only takes about 5 min to whip up, and about 30 to bake. Super easy and super delicious. Hooray!
And in honor of Star Wars: The Force Awakens opening in a few days, I found this on Facebook. Made me giggle.


"Tip Toe Through the Tulips" is featured in the trailer, and the song is associated with the red, Darth Maul-looking demon. In combination with some black, mucky footprints that climb up to the ceiling, it seems like the demon might make a return in the third chapter. Either way, the movie looks like it will be satisfyingly terrifying when it hits theaters in May 2015.

How Canada can "build back better"
Clean Energy Canada | April 17, 2020
Photo by: Enerkem
Canadian governments have been, quite rightly, focused on delivering relief to those Canadians and businesses that are suffering from the economic impacts of COVID-19. But the conversation is beginning to extend to what comes next, once we bend the curve and can begin to get our economy up and running again.
It's time for "plan-ahead-teams" to start "collecting forward-looking intelligence, developing scenarios, and identifying the options and actions needed to act tactically and strategically," as McKinsey & Company put it.
And as Clean Energy Canada executive director Merran Smith and I wrote earlier this month, "While it may be tempting to try to rebuild the past, we must be realistic and build for the present and the future…Governments should aim stimulus at the economy they want: one with less pollution and more resilience." We can choose to "build back better."
That means governments need to deliver stimulus to activities that aren't just "shovel ready," but also "shovel worthy"—aligning it with other priorities and goals, including continued climate action.
When it comes to designing a plan for Canada's economic recovery, those planning it need to start with a framework for a resilient recovery.
What should this framework look like? First off, it's important to understand that there will be three stages to recovery.
Today, we are still in the relief stage, but we are all hoping that within a few months we'll be able to transition, perhaps in a staged manner, into a stimulus stage. At this stage, the goal is to kickstart the economy, with government support for projects and initiatives that will deliver employment and economic activity quickly, within the span of a few months to a year.
Given the extent to which Canada's economy has been harmed, stimulus alone is unlikely to get the economy humming. Achieving recovery—the third stage—will entail continued government efforts to rebuild the economy, building on and expanding stimulus efforts to ensure sustained and sustainable economic activity.
Three key principles should guide government efforts:
Support must be sufficient in size. Success requires that the scale of stimulus and recovery support matches the scale of the challenge. Inadequate effort will compound our current challenges, making it even more difficult and pushing off a successful recovery.
It must be sustained in duration. Recovery won't happen overnight, especially in those sectors and regions hardest hit, so government support can't disappear overnight. If no region or Canadian is to be left behind, this will be a multi-year endeavour.
The recovery must be sustainable in nature. Our recovery will only be as resilient as it is sustainable. Both economically sustainable (which means diversifying our economy and growing our clean energy sector) and environmentally so (which means Canadians live in healthier communities with less air pollution and fewer climate catastrophes).
As the Smart Prosperity Institute's Stewart Elgie has suggested, we need to act short-term but think long-term. This is a once-in-a-generation investment, so we must consider it through the eyes of our children.
What will build a better, more resilient Canada for them? What's our vision for post-pandemic Canada?
Success would see Canada emerge from the pandemic more resilient than it was before. What does resilience mean? It means a more diversified and globally competitive economy. It means jobs that are secure for the long-term. It means a climate that is more stable and air that is more breathable.
Let's unpack this vision. What are the goals we need to achieve to make it a reality?
We need a competitive economy that is diversified, innovative, and clean, which means exporting low-carbon commodities, goods and services, and clean technologies to meet growing global demand.
Canadians who have lost their jobs would find new, secure jobs, thanks to immediate support for workers across every province—particularly those whose jobs may not return—in the form of training and retraining, aligning skill sets with an evolving labour market.
And while kickstarting the economy, we wouldn't do so at the expense of a clean environment. We need to continue to protect our forests, parks, and oceans while reducing single-use plastics and other forms of waste.
From the small town to the big city, all Canadian communities must be safe, healthy, connected, and prosperous. That means reliable internet access and transit options, efficient buildings in which to live and work, and shorter commutes with less air pollution.
And lastly, Canada should build on the Pan-Canadian Framework on Clean Growth and Climate Change, helping us meet our 2050 net-zero climate commitments while creating jobs in the fast-growing clean energy sector.
Achieving these goals will require that governments deploy several strategies to train our workforce, re-tool industries to compete, build clean, and send clear policy signals.
As International Energy Agency executive director Fatih Birol recently put it, "rather than compounding the (coronavirus) tragedy by allowing it to hinder clean energy transitions, we need to seize the opportunity to help accelerate them."
To that end, industry and non-profit leaders representing Canada's clean energy sector—including renewable power, energy efficiency, cleantech, advanced biofuels and electric transportation—have submitted an open letter to Prime Minister Trudeau calling on the federal government to introduce clean-energy-focused stimulus in order to build a more resilient economy.
And Canada won't be alone in putting a "climate lens" on its recovery efforts. From New Zealand to South Korea to the EU, a focus is being put on aligning economic recovery with the energy transition and climate action.
The COVID-19 pandemic, like climate change, isn't a "black swan" event but a "gray rhino" ("highly obvious, highly probable, but still neglected dangers"). Risk expert Michele Wucker, who came up with the "gray rhino" metaphor, notes that "it matters immensely that decision-makers view risks as gray rhinos instead of obsess in vain about black swans, because we can see gray rhinos in front of us, but black swans by definition only appear in the rearview window. That means we have a chance to do something about gray rhinos. And, in fact, most so-called black swans happen because people ignored the gray rhinos."
The gray rhino of climate change clearly stands before us. The world is wondering what would have happened if we took more proactive measures to stem the coronavirus. There's a lesson here.
For our economy and the energy system that fuels it, planning for change, rather than reacting to it, will leave us all better off. Stay tuned for more ideas on how to put this framework into action.

Five More FWCS Buildings Earn EPA's ENERGY STAR® Certification for Superior Energy Efficiency
Record Number: 16199
Displayed from: Dec 19, 2016	, until: Feb 19, 2017
North Side High School and Arlington, Indian Village, Lincoln and Maplewood elementary schools earned the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA's) ENERGY STAR certification, which signifies the buildings perform in the top 25 percent of similar facilities nationwide for energy efficiency and meet strict energy efficiency performance levels set by the EPA. These schools join Northrop, Snider, South Side and Wayne high schools, Lakeside and Portage middle schools and Adams, Bloomingdale, Brentwood, Croninger, Fairfield, Harris, Harrison Hill, Holland and Scott elementary schools. FWCS continues to work on energy efficiency and expects to add more schools to the list in the future.
"Fort Wayne Community Schools has worked hard to ensure our students have a high quality learning environments," said Steve Smethers, FWCS Coordinator Energy Management. "Earning the ENERGY STAR rating is an indication that we are committed to making sure our systems operate at an efficient level and provide the greatest benefit to students. This process not only ensures that we are saving money, but we are making the school environment a healthy, safe place for students and staff to work."
Commercial buildings that earn EPA's ENERGY STAR certification use an average of 35 percent less energy than typical buildings and also release 35 percent less carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. FWCS improved its energy performance by implementing energy-saving strategies and by making cost-effective improvements to its buildings. Districtwide, FWCS' energy-use reductions since the inception of the Energy Leadership initiative in 2012 equates to reduction of greenhouse gas emissions of 39,128 metric tons of carbon dioxide, which is equivalent to the annual emissions of 8,265 personal vehicles or 4,403 homes.
To earn the ENERGY STAR, Fort Wayne Community Schools took the following actions:
Developed a strategic energy management plan
Educated staff on best practices
Used building control systems to effectively program buildings
Audited and followed up routinely to access performance and discover opportunities
EPA's ENERGY STAR energy performance scale helps organizations assess how efficiently their buildings use energy relative to similar buildings nationwide. A building that scores a 75 or higher on EPA's 1-100 scale may be eligible for ENERGY STAR certification. Among the latest round of schools to earn the rating, North Side had the highest score with 86; Arlington received a score of 83; Lincoln received a score of 82; Maplewood received 81; and Indian Village received 79.
ENERGY STAR was introduced by EPA in 1992 as a voluntary, market-based partnership to reduce greenhouse gas emissions through energy efficiency. Today, the ENERGY STAR label can be found on more than 65 different kinds of products, 1.4 million new homes, and 20,000 commercial buildings and industrial plants that meet strict energy-efficiency specifications set by the EPA. Over the past twenty years, American families and businesses have saved more than $230 billion on utility bills and prevented more than 1.8 billion metric tons of greenhouse gas emissions with help from ENERGY STAR.

Eighth piece of a series of spontaneous night encounters, seized and captured by Issam Kechouri.
For either a shot of self-contemplation or a cocktail of casual conversation. For many foreigners who pass through or settle in Tokyo, the bijou drinking holes which line the streets have been the catalyst for their love affair with Japan.
There is no better way to practice Japanese than spending an evening in one of Tokyo's intimate bars - filled to the brim with unique characters and stories. For director Issam Kechouri, it was within the walls of Tokyo's hole-in-the-wall bars where creative inspiration was poured from the individuals that he met.
Formerly from France, Issam worked in multimedia industries in Paris and Canada before settling in the Japanese metropolis. Since his arrival in Tokyo, he is inspired by the city at night, the time where the work hours end and the Tokyojin seek refuge from the day beneath the glare of the city lights.
The opportunity to improve his Japanese allowed him to absorb the stories, dreams and visions of creative individuals in the intimate comfort of a bar. Fascinated by documentary filmmaking and the individuality of artists, Issam's most recent project, Tadaima, is a collection of videos and stills which focus on an opportunistic form of collaboration.
What constitutes a 'sign'? Sometimes, it is a moment of pure clarity, spontaneously expressed at a time when it's truly needed and least expected. Other times, all it takes is seeing the name of a bar or a friendly face that sparks a memory and tells you that you are in the right place at the right time.
On a warm Autumn night in 2020, Issam was ready to find his latest adventure in the streets of Tokyo, and an individual who could inspire the next Tadaima episode. Like in so many cities across the globe, the bustling streets of Tokyo were emptier and lacking it's essence due to the Coronavirus pandemic. A new lockdown had just begun in the capital, which meant that the bars and restaurants which famously crowd the streets were closing earlier than normal. Even in Shinjuku, which is an area of Tokyo popular with tourists for its extravagant fashion and bustling streets, the energy was significantly calmer, which lead Issam to doubt whether he was going to find anybody to collaborate with.
A direct translation of Tadaima is "right now", but has the cultural connotation of meaning; "I'm home".
This term has an emotional characteristic for Issam and constitutes a metaphor intrinsically linked to his experience of living in Japan.
To him it represents his passion for the introductions he makes with unique individuals, as though it were a destined opportunity for collaboration.A sense of feeling at home with a stranger and sharing their stories with the lens of his camera in the immediate moment of their encounter.
This, to Issam, is Tadaima.
Wing-man Nico in tow, Issam decided to venture further out to Shinjuku Sanchome. Memories of many ginger highballs and good times floated back into his memory as he saw the name of a karaoke bar he had visited only two years previously: Angelo which didn't seem to be closing as early as every other bar in the neighbourhood. Was it a sign that this is where the next episode lies?
A kind woman called Mama welcomed the pair into the establishment with appetizers and drinks. After sharing conversations with many diverse people at the busy bar for some time, practicing their Japanese, the door opened, and in walked a very large, bad-ass man. Issam immediately remembered the kindness in his face and quickly decided that it was he needed to know more. Annoyingly without his trusty camera, Issam and Nico approached sixty-two-year-old bodybuilder, Akihiro Nakashima and the pair began to discuss their passions.
Akihiro-san shared stories of how he began his career in bodybuilding at the age of forty, and how after taking fifteen years off, made a comeback in the sport. In 2017, he competed for the first time in Los Angeles, where he placed 5th in the 40-over category. In 2019, he won the 60+ class. He announced that he was also given the title of Mister Universe, and showed the pair some of the medals he had won in his tournaments.
The pride he showed in talking about his sport was moving, especially that all his work had been achieved naturally and he was a member of the PNBA (the Professional National Bodybuilding association. After sharing the previous work Issam had created for the Tadaima project, Issam started to feel a similar pride for his craft and decided that he definitely needed to film Aki-san.
The bodybuilder connected with Issam's concept to capture the stories of real Japanese people, and told him to come back to the bar with his camera.
A week after, the pair were back, and this time, with his camera. Aki-san would be back after his training, so they enjoyed the night all the same sharing drinks and words with others around the bar. Issam started to take portraits of those in the bar, and a couple in particular were curious of the camera and began to tell the videographer their story. The couple then asked Issam to Immortalise a kiss between them with his camera, which offered a touching moment.
Why do I do bodybuilding?
Because bodybuilding is my reason for living.
Once Aki-san had arrived and he was really in a good mood, the crowd in the bar began to cheer all together for this arrival.
An agreement was made to shoot in Aki-san's gym, and the result of a story of signs and chances taken.
This, is Tadaima.
