Plus: Beautiful hotel with excellent service. Only issue was that the room functions (lights, temperature, contact with staff) all occur through the phone/computerized. The phone software was rebooting all night one evening. I was unable to change the temperature of our room or contact the staff over the phone. Other that this, the hotel was lovely. I would recommend it for adults only.
Plus: The facility, staff and room were absolutely outstanding. Room was comfortable and patio with fireplace and jacuzzi was very inviting and good place to have breakfast. Spa was very exclusive and a premier experience. On-sight restaurant was also a treat with service staff, food and ambiance all scoring highest marks.
Minus: Nothing. It was was wonderful stay.

Plus: It's beautiful! Amazing views and staff very friendly.
Minus: There must be a nightclub in the building somewhere... I was on the 51st floor and there was club music Blasting all night long. And there wasn't anything anybody could do. Music went until 2 in the morning and didn't get much sleep.
Plus: Amazing hotel. The pool and hot tub were great and the rooms were spacious, comfortable and clean. The hotel staff was extremely attentive and helpful. The views of the city from the lobby and rooftop bar were spectacular. The hotel was very close to bars and restaurants. Biggest bang for your buck extremely affordable considering all the amentities it has to offer.

Minus: Jag fick många bett från vägglöss..
Plus: Very clean. nice staff. They put us in the room with the nicest view. The bed was very comfortable. Check out process was very easy, too.
Minus: It was supposed to be a private balcony, but it was too open to the next balcony. There was no dividers between the balcony to balcony, so if the guests in the next room wanted to, they could just hop over to our balcony. It didn't feel safe.
Plus: Beautiful hotel with very classy people that are there to help you with anything you may need.
Minus: Our room was beautiful but felt like there wasn't enough vanity space in the bathroom.

Plus: Utmärkt hotell, skulle bo här igen.
Minus: The pricing for food and drink in the pool area was too high.
Plus: everything. except the elevators were broken. truly hurt me. both elevators probably won't effect your trip but it made mine difficult.
Minus: besides the elevators, the parking is a bit far but okay. everything else is awesome.
Plus: The room, the bed, pillows, shower, and the size of the safe.
Minus: The daily parking fee of 22.00 and the additional 2.00 for taxes . Our card didn't work in the parking meter. We had to go another one. The a/c vent next to the bed was loud and the a/c kicked on.
Plus: Hotel was beautiful and very clean. Pool was small, but the pool area was amazing, with cafe style seating in one corner, pool-side service, and a walk-up bar.
Minus: The shower had some small sketchy spots in the grout and the plate on the showerhead was loose so there was a hole showing. There was also a hole in the bathroom wall that was loosely covered by one of those plates you put behind a door so the doorknob doesn't make a hole...At check-in we weren't provided with a trolley schedule so we showed up at 730pm to find out the trolley only runs every hour except at 8pm so we had to Uber to City Walk. Additionally at check in we inquired as to parking costs and we were told that self-parking was $22 and we wouldn't be charged for a second day as long as we were out by midnight. We actually had to pay for half a day.
Plus: Convenience. The wedding we attended was held in the gardens of the hotel. Lovely garden, great service.
Minus: No robes in the room. View of the parking lot not particularly inspiring. Noise from the highway annoying. Food not great. Restaurant VERY noisy, food below average. If you are without a car, you are kind of stuck. Swimming pool very crowded, good job we had no intention using it.
Plus: Short trip with my boys to CA; Universal Studios was our destination. Garland's relaxed vibe was great. Boys loved the movie at the pool. Trolley to the park made it effortless for mom. Restaurant take-out at the pool made dinner easygoing. Pancakes were amazingly yummy. Room was comfy and trendy decor. Garland made this getaway super relaxing.
Minus: Would suggest movies at the pool every night- the desk said only on weekends but keep in mind any day of the week traveling with kids is a weekend for us.

På detta hotell finns det event- och konferensutrymmen på upp till 167 kvadratmeter, däribland mötesrum. Flygtransfer tur/retur är gratis (tillgänglig dygnet runt).
Plus: Hotellets personal var mycket hjälpsam, och restaurangerna på första våningen var bra alternativ för att ta sig billig mat. Rummet vi bodde i var mycket rymliga att ha ett fullt utrustat kök och vardagsrum. Ett stort plus var USB-laddning hamnar överallt man skulle kunna föreställa sig.
Minus: Det enda negativa var att vi hittade godis bar wraps i nattduksbord i sovrummet. Andra än att allt var rent.
Sheraton Grand Los Angeles ligger centralt i Los Angeles, en kvarts promenad från både Staples Center och Pershing Square. Gäster har tillgång till bland annat business-service, limousine- och taxibokning och expressutcheckning. Planerar du ett event i Los Angeles? På detta hotell finns det event- och konferensutrymmen på upp till 2415 kvadratmeter, däribland konferensrum.
Minus: Inget alltför allvarligt. Svagt vattentryck i duschen, några glödlampor trasiga ... kanske märkes-badprodukter?
Plus: Skulle bo här igen för en vistelse. Nära alla stora restauranger. Lobbyn är underbar. Intressant teknik för hissar.
Minus: I was over billed and nobody return my calls.
Minus: Forced to use service elevator as normal were out, the service elevator dropped multiple feet scaring all inside, then there was no power in the room and sat in darkness. We left halfway through the night.
Plus: A heavenly night's sleep every night and an intelligent automated elevator system to prevent the "checkout rush hour waiting disaster." All the staff went above and beyond when they realised I had a rough time following the luggage mis-routing during the first two nights of stay.
Plus: We stayed at the Sheraton downtown to be within walking distance to a hockey game at Staples Centre. The hotel location was great for this. The hotel staff were very helpful and friendly. We stayed in a renovated room which was very nice. The Sheraton hotels always seem to have the most comfortable beds in any hotel. The bed was the most comfortable of all the hotels we stayed at during our week long vacation. Linens and towels were great as well.
Minus: We did not like the fact that we had to pay for wifi. A hotel of this star rating and price should have complimentary wifi for guests, especially since it is located downtown and I presume there would be many guests there on business. We also found that when we attempted web access without wifi that there was little reception on the 21 floor, so we were without web access that day. Our room was located 2 doors away from the elevators which was noisy. The water pressure in the shower was quite terrible.
Plus: King size bed, big screen tv and at kayak price 100 less per day. 200 a good price per day.
H Hotel Los Angeles, Curio Collection by Hilton ligger i Los Angeles och placerar dig 6,1 km från Loyola Marymount University och 8,1 km från Manhattan strandpir.

Petit Ermitage ligger i West Hollywood i nöjesdistriktet, en tio minuters promenad från både Sunset Strip och Melrose Avenue. Gäster har tillgång till bland annat dator, kemtvätt/tvättjänster och reception (öppen dygnet runt).
Plus: Fantastisk taket. Mycket bekväma rum. Utmärkt läge.
Minus: Obekväma soffa i rummet. Inte en fantastisk träningsrum.
Plus: Loved the intense and sensual mood this hotel sets. Dark and plush, straight out of a European vampire movie. Decor and staff pay attention to detail. Great for lovers or a place to retreat to on a business trip.
Hyatt Regency Los Angeles International Airport ligger i Los Angeles (i området LAX Area), en kvarts bilfärd från både Los Angeles Forum och Loyola Marymount University. Gäster har tillgång till bland annat business-service dygnet runt, expressincheckning och expressutcheckning. Planerar du ett event i Los Angeles? På detta hotell finns det event- och konferensutrymmen på upp till 3902 kvadratmeter, däribland konferensrum. Flygtransfer tur/retur är gratis (tillgänglig dygnet runt).
Plus: Välskött, rent, modernt och vänlig personal! Allt du behöver på ett flygplatshotell!
Plus: Den gym har en fin utsikt, och den transfer var effektiv.
Plus: Rummet var underbart, belysning och möbler var mycket elegant och modernt. Rummet hade också en 60 "+ Tv:n vilket var ett fantastiskt sätt att fånga slutet av söndagkvällen för fotboll i ensamhet.
Minus: Rummet och hotellet är bra. Men det fanns en $250 deposition på rummets, detta var inte ett problem för mig, fast jag kan se detta som ett problem för resenärer som inte är i finansiell beredskap.
Plus: Det ställe var mycket trevliga och bra gjort. Boendet var bekvämt och trevligt.
Minus: Jag hade flyttat sa till den åtföljande jag skulle vara att lämna tidigt och min gäst kommer vara att stanna tills vi skulle checka ut. Hon sa att hon skulle göra en notering och en var inte bäddad. Så då min vän var trakasserad och anklagade och gjorde att känna sig som en brottsling när han försökte att få i de rum och de viktigaste gjorde inte arbete. Hans tillhörigheter hölls som gisslan medan han var förhörde.
Minus: Rumsfönster så täckt med damm det var svårt att se ut.
Minus: Smutsiga fönster, svag dusch head.
Plus: Newly refurbished, stylish and clean. Staff were excellent and willing to help with anything.
Plus: The room was nicely updated.
Minus: Hotel is under construction. The construction noise started at 8am. The staff was unable to compensate me because I booked the hotel through KAYAK.
Plus: Came with a group of the friends and the hotel was very nice. The staff is very accommodating and the hotel is very clean. I would definitely recommend if your looking for something near the airport that's not too expensive.
Plus: Long term parking is next door.
Minus: Major construction of hotel going on. Met by Security on the way to our room- apparently it it had been trashed by the previous guest and not cleaned. Why would you check us into that room? Dark roast coffee only- most hotels offer a medium.
Plus: It was very close to the airport and had shuttles to and from every 10 to 15 minutes. Very handy. Lots of places to eat in the lobby area.
Minus: Just coming off a red eye with my wife and kids for a few extra hours of sleep during our layover; the decor was a bit over the top and certainly not what we expected from a Hyatt Regency. Weird 1950's lighting. Limited bathroom privacy. The whole room felt like a spaceship. This property shouldn't be a Hyatt Regency; it felt more like a W or an edgier brand. Hyatt Regency at other properties feels classier; this was too modern and hip for a family running on fumes.
Plus: Juan in the bar was great. Got us food when we needed it and he was very pleasant, helpful and friendly. He should be commended for a job well done. He went out of his way to help us.
Mitt i Los Angeles ligger Omni Los Angeles Hotel at California Plaza, en 5 minuters promenad från Walt Disney Concert Hall. Gäster har tillgång till bland annat business-service, limousine- och taxibokning och kemtvätt/tvättjänster.
Plus: Trevlig lobby, läge, personal. Beställde rumsservice, burger var ganska bra. Kändes som jag var i en ren plats.
Minus: Det var lite för dyrt. Det finns inte mycket att göra närheten. Betjäningen var löjligt dyrt. Och ja det är allt..
Minus: Läge en bit långt från saker att göra.
Minus: Kundservicen var fantastisk. Vi hade en fantastisk tid på vår resa. Vi kommer definitivt tillbaka.
Plus: Loved the comfortable bed, friendliness of staff, and especially the convenient courtesy car! While I normally use Lyft or Uber, I actually found the courtesy car faster and the drivers more knowledgable about the area. I tried both Lyft and Uber and both drivers took long and got lost. If you are here on business, the courtesy car is the way to go, especially as the drivers know the area well, especially the places you need to get to quickly for work.
Minus: Lack of spa facilities. I booked a facial with the Omni Spa expecting there to be actual spa facilities since the price of a facial was as high as any resort spa (sauna, steam room, jacuzzi, waiting room with tea and snacks) but there was none of that. I went down early to the spa area and was told to just come a few minutes before my appointment (there is no where to really hang out for an extended period). The pool outside was uninviting as it was drizzling. And there was just the fitness room down there and a small waiting area for the spa treatment rooms. The facial was very good, but I was just surprised/disappointed with the "spa" area.
Plus: The area was really nice. Lots of good eating options nearby. Gym was nice, clean, new equipment.
Minus: I got a 5:00 am wake up call that I didn't request. The ottoman in my room was stained and sun-bleached.
Minus: 1. Entrance loop is too narrow with too few valet workers. If they pull up your car, you will be at the back of the loop. You have to wait for half a dozen cars in front of you before you can exit! 2. Extremely uncomfortable beds that offer no support. 3. Staff manages tasks does not offer service level befitting the price of the hotel.
Plus: Location of hotel for what I wanted was good.
Plus: The 48$ parking fee is simply outrageous.
Plus: Loved my stay at the Omni, it is one of my favorite hotels. I really want to continue to see all the different locations!
Minus: I can't think of anything! Incredible stay.
Plus: Cleanliness, the staff, facilities, bar, restaurant, the location!
Minus: Mostly great experience! A couple of odd related employee related service issues but no big deal!
HI Santa Monica Hostel ligger i Santa Monica i ett shoppingområde, ett stenkast från Third Street Promenade och en 7 minuters promenad från Santa Monica Beach (strand). Gäster har tillgång till bland annat dator, reception (öppen dygnet runt) och bagageförvaring.
Plus: I never stayed there.
JW Marriott Los Angeles L.A. LIVE ligger centralt i Los Angeles, ett stenkast från Grammy Museum och en 3 minuters promenad från Microsoft Theater. Gäster har tillgång till bland annat business-service, expressutcheckning och gratis dagstidningar i lobbyn. Detta hotell har 15 konferensrum för olika typer av möten och events. Flygtransfer tur/retur är gratis (tillgänglig dygnet runt).
Plus: The location was convenient to the end purpose of our stay.
Minus: The staff were poorly trained. We didn't deal with one person who seemed to even act like they cared we were. We travel a lot, and the way the staff behaved put them in the bottom 25% for customer service skills.
Plus: Staff at check excellent. Location next to Staples Center. One block from the 'Pantry' historic diner.
Minus: Ordered lamb meatballs at the bar and they were barely warm. TV in room has mostly grainy low definition channels. Scanning room key in elevator to access floor worked after the third attempt. I won't stay here again. Expected more from this brand.
Plus: Clean, modern, friendly staff (at least the ones I had contact with). Convenient location for LA Live events obviously, which was our reason for staying here.
Minus: A bit overpriced if you ask me. The parking is absolutely ridiculous!!! $42 a night! I've paid less for rooms! For the price you pay to stay here parking should be free or at best a minimum fee for guests since there are no alternative parking areas. Room service, way overpriced as usual but the added fees and taxes are ridiculous and the food is just ok.
Minus: Hot water was not working at all. Fixed by the morning but too late for evening activities. Nice to have a coffee shop open so early and the pool area was delightful. Friendly staff.
Minus: No hot water in the room on Friday afternoon, after a day at the gym, and pool. So we went out to dinner and Clippers game without a shower on Friday night. Once returning that night we finally had hot water shower, however no air conditioning. We called 2 times and no one came up to help. No manager response, no nothing. Also cold, hot tube at the pool during the day. Last, gym was closed so we had to go to front desk for key to adjacent hotel in order to use their gym. I've stayed at Marriott at least a dozen times before and always consistently great facilities. Eg. Times Square, union square, Anaheim, San Juan. This one had too many problems in one day.
Plus: While the staff was outstanding, the peace and quite was priceless, especially with the chaos of LA Live!
Minus: The mattress was a little firm for my liking, but the bedding was exceptional!
Minus: The staff at the pool were a bit rude and not attentive. Took about 45 minutes to get our drink and food after we ordered it, and no apologies were given.
Plus: Staff is friendly and effecient.
Plus: The room was nice and bed was comfortable.
Minus: The parking is such a rip off. For $42 I almost wanted to go and sleep in my car.
The Ritz-Carlton, Los Angeles ligger centralt i Los Angeles, ett stenkast från både Microsoft Theater och L.A. Live. Gäster har tillgång till bland annat internet (avgift tillkommer), kemtvätt/tvättjänster och reception (öppen dygnet runt).
Plus: the bathroom and shower area was nice.
Minus: The price of the hotel isn't worth the mediocre look of the room. Your paying for the location and name of the hotel not the actual luxury.
Hotel Indigo Los Angeles Downtown ligger centralt i Los Angeles, en 4 minuters promenad från Grammy Museum och 7 minuter från Staples Center. Gäster har tillgång till bland annat business-service dygnet runt, expressutcheckning och gratis dagstidningar i lobbyn. Planerar du ett event i Los Angeles? På detta hotell finns det event- och konferensutrymmen på upp till 1858 kvadratmeter, däribland konferenscenter och mötesrum.
Plus: Rooms are cool, looks nice overall.
Minus: I chose this place in large part because it had a rooftop pool in downtown LA. The Sunday after we stayed there we tried to use the pool at 12pm but all the lounge chairs were put away or closed off and removed from the pool. We were told because of a pool party at 4pm no lounge chairs could be out by the pool and needed to be held for it. When I asked if we could use just 2 to hang by the pool for 1 hour and that I would pay, they said they would check with their manager. I waited about 30 minutes for that person to get back to me then saw them walking by doing something else with no manager in sight or answer. We split and went home. Also, purchased room through Kayak paid the additional amount to get breakfast included. Ordered from room service and told them we had that deal. They delivered breakfast and charged us. When I spoke to management they said that I needed to go to the restaurant to order the breakfast that I paid for through the Kayak reservation. When I told the manager we let them know about it when we ordered room service on the phone and they never told us we had to go down to the restaurant, she referred me to bring it up with Kayak. Service is absolutely the worst considering the inflexibility on food ordered from the same cooks and bait and switch on a pool amenity that you can't you because of a party in 4 hours.
Plus: Clean, big room, i especially enjoyed the remote heater function it was my favorite room amenity.
Minus: My first night, I awoke at midnight to a very loud fire alarm which was blasting in my room through a speaker. I walked down 17 flights of stairs and only when I got to the first floor an employee brushed it off and said it was a false alarm. The second night, same thing happened but this time it was a 3am fire alarm. I was wide awake, heart racing for hours, I didn't get much sleep between both nights. They did, however, comp my room service so that was attentive and a nice gesture. I appreciate them doing that without me having to ask for things in return to make it better. Sleep is the main purpose of my hotel stay and if you can't get a good nights sleep, why am I even there? It just really left a bad taste for me, even though the staff and hotel was perfect. Not sure I'd go back.
Luxe City Center Hotel placerar dig mitt i Los Angeles, ett stenkast från Staples Center och Grammy Museum. Gäster har tillgång till bland annat gratis internet, limousine- och taxibokning och kemtvätt/tvättjänster. Planerar du ett event i Los Angeles? På detta hotell finns det event- och konferensutrymmen på upp till 557 kvadratmeter, däribland konferensrum och mötesrum.
Plus: Rummet var rymligt och rent med en fantastisk utsikt över Nokia Live. Det var klart nsom utlovat och personalen var mycket tillmötesgående.
Minus: Parkering var mycket dyra.
Plus: My husband and I stayed at Lux after the concert at Staple Center. The hotel is right across the street from Staple Center. There are lots of restaurants close by too.
Minus: The front desk could not find our reservation but I was lucky to have print out with me. Then, we had to wait until after 3.45 pm. to check-in. I wonder if the hotel don't have enough housekeepers .
Minus: Not able to check in until 3PM. 'No rooms available at 2:40PM' ... so not a single room ready 20 minutes prior to check in time. No one mentioned very very loud band playing just under my window until 11PM. Hotel old and not impressive. My upgraded room did not seem any better than a standard room. Bed on a platform that is bigger than the mattress so be prepared to kick you toe in the dark.
Minus: Misinformed about parking. Was told it was free upon check-in and ended up getting a bill for $44 upon check-out. Manager said there was nothing they could do.
Plus: Staff - very friendly. Rooms clean.
Minus: Having to pay $88.00 parking for 2 days. The light feature about having to put activate with my room key.
Minus: One day parking for $44 is just insanely expensive as you can get all day parking for $10 with 5 mins walk.
Plus: Staff was very friendly and helpful. I felt well taken care of. Hotel is conveniently located to Nokia Theatre/LA Live and a ton of great restaurants! Rooms were clean, comfortable, and nicely detailed.
Minus: AC is a little noisy.
Plus: Friendly staff and spacious rooms. Asked for early check-in and they were able to accommodate the request. I would recommend this hotel to anyone staying in the downtown LA area.
Plus: From the first day we came, the staff was very friendly and helpful with all our needs. Our dogs were given a warm welcome and the front desk accommodated us with recommendations on where to shop and walk our animals. We will always come back here in the luxury hotel for its staff and location.
Minus: We liked our views, location,staff and walk friendly property.

Today on the Should I Start A Podcast show, I talk to Tony Loyd: first-time caller and long-term friend. Tony has had quite a remarkable career as an executive with various Fortune 500 companies, but after he felt too much of a conflict between himself and his corporate position, he left in search of a more favourable role that could cater to his desire to give back to the world.

Through this, he realised the power that startups and entrepreneurs have to take on the big challenges and bring about positive changes. Now, Tony hosts a podcast called Social Entrepreneur but, as we find out in this episode, podcasting isn't often the easiest road to take.

News from China in the week to 26 August, including censoring academic articles, Britain's responsibilities to Hong Kong, Party take over at Tibetan Buddhist centre and US investigates Chinese trade practices.
Britain & China
There has been considerable coverage in the UK and around the world of Cambridge University Press' decision to unblock articles they had censored in China a few days earlier at the request of the authorities there. The reversal came following a barrage of criticism from academics.
China's bid to block my journal's articles is a new attack on academic freedom (The Guardian, 22 August)
Writing about the change of heart by Cambridge University Press on censoring articles in China, Tim Pringle, a senior lecturer in development studies at SOAS and editor of China Quarterly, says:
This attempt to deny access might – just might – be the result of over-reach by Chinese censorship bodies such as the recently created General Administration of Press and Publication. But I fear it is the outcome of a much stronger shade of authoritarian government that excludes voices from outside the party-led system. The evidence of new regulatory, and apparently ideological, constraints on academic freedom and public engagement in China that have emerged since 2012 – under the leadership of Xi Jinping and Li Keqiang– suggest that the parlous state of affairs with regard to academic freedom is policy-driven. What is unprecedented is that its reach has now stretched to international institutions such as Cambridge University Press.

Cambridge University censorship U-turn is censored by China (The Guardian, 22 August)
Chinese intellectuals and bloggers have celebrated Cambridge University's decision to push back against Beijing's draconian information controls – but Communist party censors reacted almost immediately to prevent word of the snub spreading in mainland China.

China Quarterly debate a matter of principle (Global Times, 20 August)
In an Op-Ed China's Global Times, had unsurprisingly backed the original decision to censor the articles in China saying:
Western institutions have the freedom to choose. If they don't like the Chinese way, they can stop engaging with us. If they think China's Internet market is so important that they can't miss out, they need to respect Chinese law and adapt to the Chinese way.

Labour MP: Britain cannot shirk its duty to defend Hong Kong from China's authoritarianism (New Statesman, 22 August)
Joshua Wong (VoA)
Writing in The New Statesman Catherine West MP criticises "the British government's failure to respond firmly to the jailing of Joshua Wong, Nathan Law and Alex Chow for standing up for democracy".
Arrests of pro-democracy activists show China is breaching its commitments to the "one country, two systems" agreement.
The Joint Declaration is a legally binding treaty. It is registered with the UN and is still in force. As the UK is a co-signatory, it should be doing all it can to make sure it is upheld. Yet, in late June one of Hong Kong's most respected democracy activists Martin Lee described the British government as "just awful. I'm afraid I cannot find any kind words to say about that."
It is not for either China or the UK to unilaterally decide the Joint Declaration is null and void. The people of Hong Kong understand that and are standing up for democracy in the face of adversity. Our Government has a duty to stand by them.

Liu Xiaoming: Chinese investment in the UK is an opportunity not a threat (Evening Standard, 21 August)
In an article in the Evening Standard the Chinese Ambassador to the UK, Liu Xiaoming, said 'Being open and inclusive has been and must stay one of the keys to Britain's continued success'.
'Britain is known to be liberal and open to foreign trade and investment. But these days in the British media we see another picture — a confusing mixture of paranoia about so-called threats of Chinese investment to UK's national security, of exaggerations about China's appetite to buy out Britain, and of talks about protection against investment from China. All these are both groundless and harmful.'

China's deepening institutional decay (East Asia Forum, 20 August)
Carl Minzner, Fordham Law School, writes about the upcoming 19th Party Congress:
China is in transition. And not in a good way. The partially institutionalised political norms of China's reform era are buckling. Beijing is steadily sliding away from collective authoritarian rule by Chinese Communist Party (CCP) elite towards a more personalised variant wielded by President Xi Jinping alone.

In China, the Party's push for influence inside foreign firms stirs fears (Reuters, 24 August)
Late last month, executives from more than a dozen top European companies in China met in Beijing to discuss their concerns about the growing role of the ruling Communist Party in the local operations of foreign firms, according to three people with knowledge of the discussions. One senior executive whose company was represented at the meeting told Reuters some companies were under "political pressure" to revise the terms of their joint ventures with state-owned partners to allow the party final say over business operations and investment decisions.

Until now Larung Gar has operated as an independent centre of learning and SCMP reports that since the death of its founder it has been administered in turns by a group of revered khenpos, or senior monks.
But today the academy is facing an existential threat – it will soon to be taken over by a Communist Party committee headed by a local police officer. All six of the appointees are ethnic Tibetans but, as members of the atheist party, are non-believers in Buddhism.

The art of propaganda (The Economist, 25 August)
In 2015 the party's anti-graft agency noted a gap in President Xi Jinping's efforts to clean up the government and army (and crush his rivals). How could the public appreciate this heroic struggle without works of art, especially televisual ones, depicting it?
However, as The Economist writes, viewers have plenty of other options if government-sanctioned television bores them. So plots have to have plenty of 'realistic grit'.
That can muddle the message. Audiences are drawn to the bad stuff. Some viewers conclude that the Communist Party is irredeemably corrupt, not that it is bravely fighting graft.

China to use 'all means necessary' to defend itself against Trump 'protectionism' (Washington Post, 24 August)
China sharpened its rhetoric over the Trump administration's efforts to investigate its trade practices, vowing on Thursday to use "all means necessary" to defend the country and its companies. Although analysts don't believe a trade war between the world's two largest economies is imminent, China's harsh words underline a recent fraying of the relationship between Beijing and Washington over trade and North Korea.

However, we have been here before. Global Times says:
Many female pandas undergo pseudopregnancy and Edinburgh Zoo is using a battery of tests to try to rule it out.

Food in Indonesia – 15 Indonesian Dishes Recommended by Locals
Some of the best Indonesian dishes that you shouldn't miss are listed here! These dishes are highly recommended by locals and you definitely should try them.
Photo by Free To Use Sounds
Many people around the world aren't familiar with a country called Indonesia, but well aware of the existence of Bali. Whereas Bali is not an independent country, but a small part of Indonesia. Starts from Sabang in Sumatera to Merauke in Papua, Indonesia has a rich abundant natural, cultural, and culinary resources.
Photo by Haryo Setyadi
One of Indonesian culinary pride is Rendang from West Sumatra that was claimed as the world's most delicious food by CNN for several years repeatedly. There is also Satay which is former US President Barack Obama's favorite food while he was in Indonesia. But here we will give you a recommendation of 15 types of Indonesian dishes that aren't yet widely known by tourists, but very popular among locals.
Divided into 3 parts, here is a list of the dishes that you can use as a reference if you want to explore the pleasure of Indonesian specialties.
1. Rawon
Photo by closari CC BY 2.0
Rawon is a black beef dish and has a strong taste. The black color in this stock comes from the grounded spice called kluwak. The spices used are also quite complex, consisting of onion, garlic, turmeric, chili, coriander, galangal, and others.
Rawon is usually served with bean sprouts, salted eggs, and fried onions. And if you love spicy food, there's sambal or Indonesian Chili sauce served separately. You can add it as much as your taste preference. Locals usually enjoy rawon with a plate of white rice. You can find this dish easily in Java island, especially in Surabaya.
2. Tongseng

One of the most delicious Indonesian dishes is Tongseng. It is a dish made from rich coconut milk as the soup until it look-like curry. On the soup, they usually add diced meat like goat meat, mutton, or beef and vegetables such as tomatoes, cabbage, and green onions. It's seasoned with minced garlic, turmeric, pepper, and soy sauce. This dish is best served while it's hot and can be enjoyed along with a bowl of rice.
It is said that Tongseng originally came from a district in Central Java, called Boyolali. Tongseng is usually sold in the same stall as Satay. You can find it from street stalls, cafeteria, or restaurants.
3. Opor Ayam
Still using coconut milk-based soup just like any other tropical dishes, Opor Ayam or Chicken Opor in English is a special dish in Indonesia. This dish is often served during Eid Al-Fitr's day. Although it consists of complex spices to make an Opor Ayam, nowadays there are so many places that sell instant spices if you want to cook it by yourself. You can find it in the supermarket or even in the traditional market.
This savory dish usually uses chicken as the main ingredient, but sometimes there are also people who use other types of meat such as beef or goat. It's usually enjoyed with a plate of rice and fried onions as a topping. Be careful to not eat it too much although it has a delicious taste because of the coconut milk that produces fat which is not too good for your health.
4. Bakso / MeatBalls

A clear stock with a rich taste and protein, Bakso or Meatballs in English is a dish that is widely loved by Indonesian. Almost everyone adores this dish. There are so many places that sell Bakso, mostly street food stall.
Meatballs made from beef or chicken. Based on the serving style, there are some types of bakso, such as:
Bakso Malang which originally came from Malang, a district in East Java. This bakso is served along with steamed and fried pangsit, raw tofu, and sliced cabbage;
Bakso Solo which originally came from Solo, a district in Central Java. This bakso is served with bean sprout and caism. They usually use glass and yellow wheat noodles as well.
Nowadays there are so many fusion types of Bakso, such as Bakso beranak whereas a small meatball is used as a filling on the bigger meatballs, giant meatball that has a huge size and mostly weighs more than 1 kg for one meatball only, bakso mercon which uses spicy sambal as the filling on the meatball, and many other types of bakso.
5. Mie Ayam

If there is bakso, then mie ayam should be on the list as well. These two types of dishes are usually sold in the same stall. Mie means noodles, and Ayam means chicken in English. So, this dish literally means noodles with chicken topping. This dish actually had a root from Chinese food but Indonesian modified it to Mie Ayam we know now.
The variation of mie ayam is bakmi ayam, kwetiau ayam, and bihun ayam. What makes them different from each other is the noodles being used as the main ingredient. While mie ayam uses round and thick shaped noodles, bakmi uses small, thin and flat shaped noodles, kwetiau uses flat and bigger noodles than bakmi, and bihun uses glass noodles. There are two ways to served mie ayam, with or without soy sauce. If you will use soy sauce, it will be called mie ayam yamin, and if you will not use soy sauce it's still the original mie ayam.
6. Ayam Geprek / Smashed Chicken
Ayam geprek hype skyrocketed in the last few years. Besides, chicken is one of Indonesian's favorite meat, the spiciness of this dish made everyone feel challenged. It is made from a fried chicken that smashed along with some chilies so it has a wrecked shaped with red chilies on top.
There are so many places that sell this dish. But the most popular one nowadays is a franchise stall called Geprek Bensu which is owned by an Indonesian comedian and entrepreneur Ruben Onsu. If you love spicy food, don't forget to try this one.
7. Seblak
Seblak is a new kind of food that gained fans from every Indonesian. This food was first introduced in West Java, Bandung precisely. But now you can find Seblak almost everywhere. This is another type of spicy food from Indonesia that you have to try while you're staying in this country.
This dish is made from marinated crackers and spices. They usually add noodles, vegetables, meat, sausages, meatballs, or chicken feet. Seblak has a spicy taste, even in some places, they provide seblak with a crazy level of spiciness. If you don't like spicy food, you can ask the vendor not to use chili in seblak seasoning. But it will produce a different sensation with the spicy one.
8. Martabak
Some of the best Indonesian dishes include desserts and snacks. There are two types of martabak that are usually found in street stalls, it is called martabak manis and martabak telor.
Martabak Manis or often referred to as terang-bulan is made from flour, eggs, and sugar. These snacks have a variety of toppings, according to customer's requests. Generally in the form of chocolate, peanuts, and cheese. But now there are many Martabak manis that use other toppings, such as Nutella, green tea, oreo, sweets, and others. If a standard martabak manis is priced around Rp.20,000 – Rp.35,000, martabak with more modern toppings can get up to Rp.100,000 per pan.
Martabak telor or eggs martabak has a more savory taste. The flour dough is flattened until it becomes very thin, then fried and filled with chicken or duck eggs, meat, leeks, and spices. Martabak telor on the roadside is usually priced around Rp. 30,000 – Rp. 50,000.
9. Es Campur

This dessert has many fans because of its sweet and savory taste. Es meaning Ice, and campur means mixed in Indonesian. The soup is made from brown sugar or syrup mixed with coconut milk. Once mixed, this soup is then poured into other ingredients such as avocados, jackfruit, fro, jelly, etc.
10. Es Pisang Ijo
The name of es pisang ijo comes from the filling that is used in this dish. Pisang means banana, and ijo means green. However, this cannot be interpreted as a green banana because the green color of the bananas is made after the banana is wrapped in a flour mixture that is color green.
This dish originally came from South Sulawesi. It's using the same soup as used in es campur. But the contents used are very different. Es pisang ijo uses rice flour porridge, bananas wrapped in green flour, and sometimes they also add jelly granules made from sago flour.
Es pisang ijo can be found starting from the roadside to classy restaurants with prices that are not too expensive.
11. Pempek
Photo by Vivera Siregar CC BY 2.0
Pempek, mpek-mpek, or empek-empek is how Indonesians say the name, but the most precise way to call it is Pempek. This dish is fishcake and has a savory and delicate taste. Pempek is usually served with kuah cuko or sour sauce made from soy sauce and vinegar so it has a sweet and sour taste. Although it originally came from South Sumatra, nowadays you can find it in other regions as well, especially in the street food vendors.
12. Gorengan / Fries
Photo by JustVON! CC BY-ND 2.0
Gorengan or fries in Indonesia have very diverse types. There are fried cassava, fried sweet potato, fried bananas, fried tofu filled with vegetables, and so many others. But the type of gorengan that has the most fans is Bakwan. Bakwan itself is an authentic Indonesian dish that is influenced by Chinese dishes.
Bakwan is made from flour mixture mixed with carrots, cabbage, and sometimes sweet corn is added which is then fried in a round shape. It has a savory taste and is usually enjoyed along with whole cayenne pepper.
You can find fried foods anywhere from the roadside to a starred restaurant, generally sold at night.
Drinks and Beverage
13. Bajigur
If you're staying in West Java, you have to try its Bajigur. This is a drink that believes to have an efficacy of warming your body when the weather is cold. It is usually served while it is warm or hot and it has a sweet taste. Bajigur is made from coconut milk and Aren sugar. Aren is a palm and its juice is used to make sugar with the traditional process.
What makes it warming the body is by adding a small amount of ginger and salt on the Bajigur. It depends on the availability of the ingredient.
14. Bir Pletok
This is a refreshing drink that originally came from Betawi ethnic, the Jakarta natives. This drink has efficacy to unleash blood circulation.
It is made from ginger, pandan leaves, and lemongrass. To add a color to this drink, sappan wood is added so it has a beautiful red color.
Locals consume it at night to warm their bodies. But since the Jakarta weather is quite hot whether it is day or night, bir pletok is not consumed widely anymore. There are only some places that served this drink on their menus.
15. Secang
If you want to try a king style drink, try this wedang secang which comes from the sultanate of Yogyakarta. Indonesians do not make a drink without any reason, this drink also has efficacy to improve the stamina, overcoming the flatulence and many others.
The ingredients of this drink are sappan wood, lemongrass, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and cardamom. These spices are boiled until it produces a great scent. Then strain and take the extract to be served together with rock sugar whose amount can be adjusted to your taste.
Those were some of the Indonesian dishes that are not widely popular among tourists yet but worth a try. It will give you an unforgettable experience and might make you want to go back to Indonesia.
Note: If you're a pork and alcohol lover, you might have a difficult time looking for these food. That's because Indonesia's population is a majority of Muslims. And it prohibits consuming pork and alcoholic drinks. But it doesn't mean that you can't find pork and alcohol, a place like Bali, North Sumatera, Papua, North Sulawesi, and Maluku has a majority of non-muslim natives and that means that finding pork dishes are easier. Alcohol is forbidden by the government, so you can only find it in a place that has permission to sell it, such as in a bar or if you're in Bali, the minimarket also sells canned alcohol.
With a lot of mouthwatering Indonesian dishes, this list is absolutely not enough. However, when you decide to visit this country, you now have a reference that you can use. So, which one of these Indonesian dishes that you eagerly want to try? Tell us your opinion!

Fernando has been making music as long as he remembers. At the age of twelve, he started taking music theory and classical guitar lessons at the Belgium Academy of Music. He was fourteen when he had the opportunity to try on an electric guitar, from a local band friend. Soon after he formed his first band with three close friends. Their music was the radio tunes of the times and the members were playing cheap accoustic guitars. The band last a few months and was dismantled without a name or a gig.
At sixteen, after working two months during the school summer break, he bought his first electric guitar, a red 1966 Hofner Verithin. He formed his first blues band "Agnus Dei" covering songs from Chicken Shack, Groundhogs, Taste and later Rory Gallagher. He was known around as the belgian Gallagher. He got himself a Fender Strat along with an AC30 Vox connected to a doublestack Marshall Amp. Those were the days.
During that time, the blues scene in Charleroi, Belgium, was dominated by a band named "Vacation", a blues power trio with an excellent guitarist Luigi Collu. In 1973, at the departure of Luigi, Fernando was asked to join the band. They recorded a few singles until he left in 1975.
Fernando moved to Toronto Canada an started playing with "F.E.B." until 1980 when he moved to the Ottawa region. He left the music scene to take care of his young family.
During the eighties, he started playing classical guitar in local restaurants and private parties. He also was teaching classical guitar.
With the advent of the digital computer technology, in the nineties, he started recording music. He took courses in music engineering and productions at the Trebas Institute of Recording Arts and enjoying playing blues again. He joined the "See See Rider Blues Band" and performed with them for many years.
While still playing with them, he also played live with many other musicians.
It was 2010 when he decided to perform and record under his own name.
His music is blues. His songs are original and when he cover a song, he modifies it to make it his own, as you can attest while listening to "A Whiter Shade Of Pale" and the Beatles blues version of "I Saw Her Standing There"

In recent years, activist investors have sought to expand climate-related reporting by publicly traded companies – directly by pressuring the companies, and indirectly by petitioning the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and other regulators to require additional reporting in periodic reports on the businesses' status and prospects, and in annual meeting reports and proxy requests. SEC has been criticized for doing very little in response to these requests, but took potentially important actions on March 23.
Formally, SEC's staff offered opinions under 1934 Act Rule 14a-8, which defines when publicly traded companies must include shareholder sponsored resolutions in their proxy statements and allow votes at annual meetings.
RESOLVED: Proponents request that, by February 2017 and annually thereafter in a publication such as its annual or Corporate Social Responsibility report, Exxon quantify and report to shareholders its reserve replacements in British Thermal Units, by resource category, to assist the Company in responding appropriately to climate change induced market changes. Such reporting shall be in addition to reserve reporting required by the Securities and Exchange Commission, and should encompass all energy resources produced by the company.
Ordinary Business. Companies can exclude shareholder proposals that relate to "ordinary business operations," which SEC leaves to company management (and which can be changed directly if shareholders elect different directors). Exxon argued that asset valuation is an ordinary business task, while the shareholders argued the resolution focused on broader policy concerns over climate change and were designed to allow outsiders to value the company appropriately in a world facing climate change and carbon constraints.
Vague or misleading. Exxon argued that the proposal was too vague to implement, given uncertainties about how to value the company's many non-fossil assets – including intermittent energy resources such as solar or wind facilities. The shareholders argued that BTUs are standard measurements, and that existing methodologies allow evaluation of intermittent resources in those terms.
Shareholders request that by the Annual Meeting of Stockholders in 2017, Chevron Corporation (Chevron), with board oversight publishes an annual assessment of long-term portfolio impacts to 2035 of possible public climate change policies, at reasonable cost and omitting proprietary information. The report should explain how current capital planning processes and business strategies incorporate analyses of the short and long-term financial risks of a lower carbon economy. Specifically, the report should outline impacts of fluctuating demand and price scenarios on the company's existing reserves and resource portfolio - including the International Energy Agency's "450 Scenario," which sets out an energy pathway consistent with the internationally recognized goal of limiting the global increase in temperature to 2 degrees Celsius.
Recently considered. Chevron argued that substantially the same subject matter was proposed in the company's 2015 proxy materials and rejected by shareholders. The shareholders offered distinctions between the two years' resolutions.
Ultimately, SEC staff rejected both No Action Letter requests, stating that staff "cannot concur" with the companies' justifications for excluding the prosed resolutions. This rather obscure double-negative statement means that the companies cannot exclude the proposal without risk of prosecution by SEC for violation of proxy rules. Both companies have since agreed to include their respective resolution – while also exercising management's right to include its own statement of opposition to the proposal as inappropriate.
These resolutions further increase pressure on major companies – including major oil companies – to expand consideration and public reporting of climate change-related effects on their futures. Coupled with expanding reporting of GHG emissions from corporate activities, these efforts continue to reinforce the links between current activities and future prospects … and generally to reinforce policies intended to reduce emissions and climate change.

Q: Spark Cassandra Connector - Input Fetch Size I'm using Cassandra 3.11.4 and Spark 2.3.3. When I query lots of partition keys(for 3 months where minute is partition key = 3 * 30 * 24 * 60 partition keys) with joinWithCassandraTable, I'm seeing lots of slow timeout logs under cassandra debug.log like:
<SELECT * FROM event_keyspace.event_table WHERE partitionkey1, partitionkey2 = value1, value2 AND column_key = column_value1 LIMIT 5000>, time 599 msec - slow timeout 500 msec

<SELECT * FROM event_keyspace.event_table WHERE partitionkey1, partitionkey2 = value5, value6 AND column_key = column_value5 LIMIT 5000>, time 591 msec - slow timeout 500 msec/cross-node

I'm using repartitionByCassandraReplica before joinWithCassandraTable.
I see that disk IO goes to 100%. If I change data model where hour goes as partition key instead of minute, large partitions will be created which is not applicable.
I suspect that this limit 5000 may cause that but even I set input.fetch.size_in_rows this log did not change.
sparkConf.set("spark.cassandra.input.fetch.size_in_rows", "20000");

How can i set this LIMIT 5000 clause ?

A: Did you try reducing the spark.cassandra.input.split.size? Because all the data is falling under the same Partition.

Justice Without Borders (JWB) is welcoming applications for the Summer & Fall Legal Fellowship programme in its Singapore office. Only applicants currently enrolled in a local LL.B program and who are able to commit to both Summer and Fall Semester periods will be considered. Applications are due on 4 April 2019. Please click here for more information.
Fellows will engage in legal projects on behalf of victims of labour exploitation, covering Singapore and other countries in the region. As a Fellow, you will take on an active role in one or more projects that may include: identifying and preparing cases for potential litigation, strategic legal research to support future litigation; preparing training courses for Singapore and regional audiences; and participating in evidence and caseworker trainings with our local front-line NGO partners. In addition to coordinating with partners across the region, including Indonesia, the Philippines and Hong Kong, you may be provided mentorship by our law firm partners.
Please note that the Fellowship is a professional engagement, with students treated as junior staff in the organisation. While experience with migrant worker issues is a plus, it is not required. We are looking for students who are interested in our issue area, are self-motivated, can work in a team and are not afraid to take on new challenges outside of their comfort zone.
JWB is a not-for-profit organisation that supports migrant worker victims to seek compensation after they return home. We connect victims with pro bono lawyers, facilitate lawsuits against bad actors, conduct workshops on evidence collection and publish cutting-edge strategic legal research. We have offices in Singapore, Hong Kong and Indonesia.
In Singapore, JWB develops the networks, knowledge and know-how needed to bring cross-border litigation. We work with local service organisations to screen cases for potential civil claims and with lawyers to both develop and pursue cases and conduct strategic legal research that will help clarify currently unsettled areas of the law. We have assisted locally qualified lawyers in obtaining successful settlements for multiple clients, and we are in the process of developing new cross-border cases for clients with outstanding legal claims.
Summer Fellowship: Full-time (8h/day, 5 days/week in JWB office), 13 May 2019 to 2 August 2019.
Fall Fellowship: 10h/week (8h/day, 1 day/week in JWB office and 2h/week remotely), from 5 August 2019 to 6 December 2019.
Priority will be given to those who can also commit to staying on for the Winter Fellowship, from 8 December 2019 to 10 January 2020.
Please submit a one-page statement of interest of no more than 250 words, CV and a writing sample of no more than 10 pages to Shalini Jayaraj at shalini@forjusticewithoutborders.org.
Applications are due on 4 April 2019. Shortlisted candidates will be contacted by 12 April for an in-person interview.
