A: All methods are implicitly accessible by any other piece of code, if the function name is in scope. There is no public keyword in c

A: You have 'public' before 'void'. Remember, this is C ;)

Q: Density of elementary tensors Consider $X=L^p(\mathbb{R}^n)$ for $n>1$, $1<p<\infty$. Call $f\in X$ an elementary tensor if there exist $n$ functions $f_1,\dots,f_n\in L^p(\mathbb{R})$ such that $f(x)=f_1(x_1)\cdots f_n(x_n)$. Are these functions dense in $L^p$?
If not, which most-useful positive statements "in this direction" can be made? Or is this maybe true for other function spaces?

A: The set $\mathscr{E}_n$ of elementary tensors is not itself dense in $L^p(\mathbb{R}^n)$ for $n > 1$.
Note first, that for an elementary tensor we have
$$\int_{\mathbb{R}^n} \lvert f_1(x_1)\cdot \dotsb \cdot f_n(x_n)\rvert^p \,dx = \prod_{i=1}^n \int_\mathbb{R} \lvert f_i(x_i)\rvert^p\, dx_i$$
and hence $\lVert f\rVert_p = \prod \lVert f_i\rVert_p$.
Now consider (for $n = 2$) $t(x,y) = \chi_{[0,1]}(x)\cdot\chi_{[0,1]}(y) + \chi_{[-1,0)}(x) \cdot\chi_{[-1,0)}(y)$.
Suppose there were a sequence $t_n(x,y) = f_n(x)\cdot g_n(y)$ of elementary tensors with $t_n \to t$ in $L^p(\mathbb{R}^2)$. Without loss of generality, we may assume that the support of $f_n$ and $g_n$ is contained in $[-1,1]$. Let $a_n(x) = f_n(x)\cdot\chi_{[0,1]}(x)$, and $b_n(x) = f_n(x)\cdot \chi_{[-1,0)}(x)$. Similarly write $g_n = c_n + d_n$.
Multiplication with $\chi_{[0,1]\times[0,1]}$ shows that $a_n(x)\cdot c_n(y) \to \chi_{[0,1]\times[0,1]}$ in $L^p$, and therefore $\lVert a_n\rVert_p \cdot \lVert c_n\rVert_p \to 1$. Analogously $b_n(x)\cdot d_n(y) \to \chi_{[-1,0)\times[-1,0)}$ in $L^p$, whence $\lVert b_n\rVert_p \cdot \lVert d_n\rVert_p \to 1$. But in the same way, we see that $a_n(x)\cdot d_n(y) \to 0$ and $b_n(x)\cdot c_n(y) \to 0$, whence $\lVert a_n\rVert_p \cdot \lVert d_n\rVert_p \to 0$ and $\lVert b_n\rVert_p \cdot \lVert c_n\rVert_p \to 0$.
But that leads to the contradiction
$$1 = \lim_{n\to\infty} \bigl(\lVert a_n\rVert_p \lVert c_n\rVert_p\bigr)\cdot\bigl(\lVert b_n\rVert_p \lVert d_n\rVert_p\bigr) = \lim_{n\to\infty} \bigl(\lVert a_n\rVert_p \lVert d_n\rVert_p\bigr)\cdot\bigl(\lVert b_n\rVert_p \lVert c_n\rVert_p\bigr) = 0.$$
The general case that $\mathscr{E}_n$ is not dense in $L^p(\mathbb{R}^n)$ for $n > 1$ follows by multiplying the above example with a characteristic function of a set with finite positive measure in $\mathbb{R}^{n-2}$.
However, the linear span of the elementary tensors is dense in $L^p(\mathbb{R}^n)$ for every $n$.
Depending on how $L^p$ was constructed, it is more or less obvious.
If $L^p$ was constructed as the completion of the space of simple functions
$$\mathscr{S}(\mathbb{R}^n) = \left\lbrace \sum_{k=1}^m c_k\cdot \chi_{M_k} \colon m \in \mathbb{N}, c_k \in \mathbb{C}, M_k = \prod_{i=1}^n A_{i,k}, A_{i,k} \text{ finite interval} \right\rbrace$$
under $\lVert\cdot\rVert_p$ (modulo a.e. $0$ functions), it is obvious because each simple function is a (finite) linear combination of elementary tensors.
If $L^p$ was constructed as the completion of $\mathscr{C}_c(\mathbb{R}^n)$ under $\lVert\cdot\rVert_p$, it is less obvious, but it then obviously is sufficient to show that each $f \in \mathscr{C}_c(\mathbb{R}^n)$ can be approximated by linear combinations of elementary tensors.
One way to see that is by uniformly approximating $f$ by a sequence of simple functions, partitioning $\mathbb{R}^n$ into disjoint (half-open) cubes with side length $2^{-j}$ and letting the approximation on each such cube take some value of $f$ on that cube. Since $f$ is uniformly continuous, that uniformly approximates $f$, and since the support of $f$ is compact, that implies $L^p$-convergence.
Another way is, as I stated in the comment, to take a continuous partition of unity on $\mathbb{R}$, e.g. starting from $\psi(x) = \max\{0, 1-\lvert x\rvert\}$, we have $(\psi_k)_{k\in\mathbb{Z}}$ a partition of unity when $\psi_k(x) = \psi(x-k)$, obtaining finer partitions of unity by scaling, and approximating $f$ by
$$\sum_{k \in\mathbb{Z}^n} f\left(\frac{k}{2^j}\right)\prod_{i=1}^n \psi_{k_i,j}(x_i)$$
to obtain an approximation by linear combinations of continuous elementary tensors with compact support. One can even choose the partition of unity one starts with smooth, to obtain an approximation by smooth functions.
If $L^p(\mathbb{R}^n)$ was constructed in a different way, the above and the result that one of $\mathscr{S}(\mathbb{R}^n)$ and $\mathscr{C}_c(\mathbb{R}^n)$ is dense in $L^p(\mathbb{R}^n)$ shows that the span of $\mathscr{E}_n$ is dense.

When Ed Osworth of Lowell read Thursday's column about Sheldon High's new Random Acts of Kindness Club - and how being nice got the students kicked out of a mall and questioned by the police - he was taken back to Grants Pass on a rainy Christmas Eve 1997.
Osworth, now 57, had lived the good life in the San Francisco area. He helped launch a lucrative business, got into real estate, became rich, drove a Mercedes.
Then it all unraveled. He went bankrupt. Got divorced. Gained 100 pounds. And lost hope.
"I was sitting in a beat-up old car. The windows were fogged up. I felt like the ultimate failure. And then a woman walked by, smiled and said, `Merry Christmas.'"
Her random act of kindness, he says, changed his life.
"I hated Christmas. Hated my life. I was all about hate, hate, hate. And all of the sudden, her attitude just hit me: Why should I be feeling like this on what should be the most joyous night of the year? I didn't used to be like this when I was young. What had happened to me?"
He dared, for the first time, to examine his life. And dared to change. "I'd been ignoring the moonlight. I hadn't been going out and having any fun. I hadn't been giving away things to strangers who needed them."
But the woman's words turned him around. He started smiling. Thinking of others. Lost 80 pounds. Moved north to a house on Dexter Lake. Even wrote a book about happiness.
In fact, he's donating 70 copies of "Unstoppable Joy: A Happier You in 12 Simple Steps" to Sheldon's club. "I wanted to let them know that what they're doing is necessary," he says. "What they're doing is 100 percent right."
But, some will say, isn't this have-a-nice-day stuff a bit on the trivial side? "I don't think any act of kindness is trivial," he says, "because I've seen instances where it's turned around an entire life."
Like his own.
Not everyone is as inspired by the students, who were prevented, by security officers, from handing out candy-attached "You're Awesome" cards to shoppers at Valley River Center and were reported to the police as suspected burglars after they offered to rake a woman's lawn.
"The kids are on an ego trip," ranted one anonymous caller to me.
But others see the students as trying to be lights in what's become a dark world. Eugene poet Ingrid Wendt, a former Senior Fulbright Professor and winner of the Oregon Book Award, applauded their efforts to make a difference.
"I'll never understand why some people don't like to be the recipients of kindness," she wrote. "Blessings on all these young people who believe they can make a difference, one person at a time, one spirit lifted at a time, making each life glow."
One reader is donating $1,000 to their cause. "My adviser pulled me out of class to tell me the news," says Kelsey Hertel, who founded the club. "I started crying, she started crying. This is awesome."
Word spread around school, then to parents of club members. "This affirmed that they were on the right track," says Kathy Young, whose son, Alex, is the club's "governor of generosity." "They had been pretty discouraged."
Moorefield sees practical benefits, too. "The kids have been spending their own money on this stuff. Now they can, say, buy hot chocolate to give away - with the club's money."
Already, Hertel says, ideas are rolling in from club members about how to use it: randomly paying for people's meals in restaurants, flower giveaways, cards for police officers and firefighters. And more.
"That's how you're going to change the world," says Osworth, the man who credits a random act of kindness with changing his life. "One person, one smile at a time."

Old Town Apartment is located in the historical area of Niccolò which is famous for its traditional restaurants and craft shops.
Just in the centre of Florence, it is a stones throw from the Ponte Vecchio and just below Forte di Belvedere and Piazzale Michelangelo.
After crossing the River Arno you are minutes away from the historical sites of Florence, the Uffizi Gallery, Piazza della Signoria and Palazzo Vecchio, Brunelleschi's Dome and Giotto's bell tower, the Basilica of Santa Croce, the Accademia Gallery (with the celebrated Michelangelo's David).
Old Town Apartment is located in Via San Niccolò, 76 about 7km away from the airport of Florence, arriving in town we suggest you take a taxi since you don't know the city and you will have to carry bags with you. You will be here in 25/30 minutes and the flat rate for the taxi will be Euro 20.00 + 1 Euro per piece of bag.
Old Town Apartment is located in Via San Niccolò, 76 around 2km away from the main station of Florence (S.M.N.), arriving in town we suggest you take a taxi since you don't know the city and you will have to carry bags with you. You will be here in about 15 minutes and the rate for the taxi will be around Euro 15.00.
Please note that driving and parking in Florence is reserved for residents. However, you may drive to Florence Old Town Apartment just to 'unload' your luggage.
In general we recommend that you to drive directly to the garage and then walk to Florence Old Town Apartment (approximately 750 meters).
-Follow our detailed instructions to Florence Old Town Apartment.
-Keep driving entering Lungarno Cellini and pass the first telematic access point that controls access of the city center. You may pass through this access point.
-Lungarno Cellini becomes Lungarno Serristori. Continue until you have Piazza Demidoff on your left hand side.
-Turn right again and you will be in Via San Niccolò.
-Drive straight along the river on Lungarno Torrigiani that become Via de' Bardi.
In order to better manage the urban traffic, telematic gates have been activated in the City Limited Traffic Zones (ZTL). As of 1st December 2011, the city has introduced a new toll for entering the city's center by car.
The garage will input your license plate details into their computer system, this toll is included in the rate of the garage.
For those guests returning a car to a rental company without using the garage services, please provide the car's plate details at Florence Old Town Apartment at check-in. You will be required to pay the toll at the hotel ONLY in this case.
The two restricted traffic zone access points for zone A+ are NOT ACCESSIBLE for anyone under any circumstances (one is in Via dei Bardi after Garage Ponte Vecchio and the other in Pizza Pitti both on the Arno south bank).

Paolo Pino (1534–1565) was an Italian painter and art writer.  He was born in Venice.  A student of Giovanni Gerolamo Savoldo, he wrote the "Dialogo di pittura" (1548), which affirmed the supremacy of the Venetian School over the Florentine School and anticipated some aspects of the Mannerist style.

Partly cloudy skies. Low 32F. Winds N at 10 to 15 mph.
Mildred Brezina, 95, of Menomonie passed away peacefully, Saturday, March 9, 2019, at the Neighbors of Dunn County and began her new life in heaven with her Lord.
She was born Feb. 9, 1924, to Andrew and Pearl (Holden) Larson. She graduated from Boyceville High School in 1942. Mildred married Thomas Brezina in 1951 and were blessed with two sons who they raised in Boyceville. Mildred dedicated her life to her faith and her family.
Mildred loved helping women find the perfect outfit, makeup and accessories as she sold Fashion Wagon and Avon for many years and even owned a dress shop in Boyceville. After moving to Menomonie in 2006, she found a new church home at Grace Episcopal Church where she enthusiastically worked at the church thrift store for several years.
Mildred adored dancing to big band music and was an exceptional dancer. She and husband, Tom, enjoyed Dance Club for many years and Mildred continued to dance into her 90s. She loved to travel, enjoying tours of the Holy Land and Norway. Mildred had a great sense of humor. She also loved to entertain and set a beautiful table for her guests.
After retiring from the Westconsin Credit Union she enjoyed making imaginative and cheerful handcrafted greeting cards with personalized bible verses.
Preceded in death by her husband, Tom; parents; and sister, Fern Best (Harold). Survived by sons, Todd (Sharon), and Wade (Toni); grandchildren, Michael, Matthew, Noelle and Lauren; great-grandson, Keo; sisters-in-law, Deloris Brezina and Lee Brezina; and many nieces and nephews.
A celebration of life will held at Grace Episcopal Church in Menomonie at 11 a.m. Saturday, April 13, preceded by a visitation at 9:30 a.m. Mildred will be interred at Fort Snelling National Cemetery in Minneapolis with her husband, Tom, at a later date.
Thank you to the exceptional staff at the Neighbors of Dunn County! She was blessed to spend her final days with such loving care.

Although I don't have any convicts in my direct family line, my son has three in his and my partner also has three, with the earliest one arriving in the Third Fleet. Anyone with convicts is really lucky as there are so many records available and in recent years many of these have become available online, either on free sites or subscription sites.
Trial records for convicts who appeared before the Old Bailey in London are easily located on the Proceedings of the Old Bailey London's Central Criminal Court 1674 to 1913 website. You can type in a convict's name (use the phrase option to keep the two words together) and select transportation from the verdict menu and you have a list of all convicts with that name transported.
Sarah Johnson, 14 years old, was charged with theft and grand larceny and sentenced to 7 years transportation in 1797. Sarah's defence was that she did it 'from necessity and want' but what type of offence was grand larceny? In Sarah's case it was a linen shirt value 6s, a linen shift value 2s, a black silk bonnet value 3s, a scarlet cloth cloak value 6d and a check linen apron value 10d.
Sarah arrived in Sydney and was then sent on to Norfolk Island where she met and married Samuel Pyers who had arrived on the Active as part of the Third Fleet. When the Norfolk Island first settlement closed down they moved to Tasmania where they lived until their deaths. Sarah and Samuel had eight children and there are lots of Pyers descendants today who are proud of their convict ancestors.
We have travelled to Norfolk Island twice looking at where they lived and thinking of what their life was like as part of the First Settlement. It is such a beautiful place and it is no wonder that they did not want to leave and go to Tasmania when the First Settlement was closed down. We even managed to locate their exact land holding which was really exciting.
Trove is a great free site for picking up details of convict lives that we might not discover from official records. A simple name search on Samuel Pyers brings up numerous references to him or references to his son. For example, in August 1824 Samuel Pyers was the victim of a burglary when four men broke into his house and the same night they also broke into Richard Pyers house, Samuel's son. Events like this, if not captured in newspapers, can end up as forgotten family stories.
Richard lingered until three o'clock in the afternoon when he died. The jury at the inquest returned a verdict of the deceased had 'died by visitation of God'. Without the inquest being reported in such detail in the newspaper, I would not have this account of Richard's last hours.
Another great website for convicts is Convicts to Australia and of course original records are held in the relevant state archives and some indexed and digitised series are also available through Ancestry and Findmypast. Look for guides on how to research convicts in the relevant archives and even some of the state libraries have how to research convict guides online. CoraWeb is a handy portal site that has links to lots of convict related websites.
As I said at the beginning there are lots of records for convicts and you can piece together their life stories from the various records usually much easier than if they were immigrants. Hopefully the anecdotes above will get you looking for all the minutiae of their lives and not just the basic born, married, transported and died references. Good luck.
A pertinent post for people like me with a very crooked past. One of my fave sites is Claim a Convict.
An aside, stemming from the history of Richard Walker. Our Walker family is a direct line: Richard Walker – Henry Walker – William Peter Walker – Henry Adolphus Walker – Vincent Henry Walker – Henry Charles Walker – Andrew Henry Charles Walker. Richard Walker was convicted of having a forged bank note with intent to use it. His G-g-g-g-grandson Andrew actually makes money, or at least builds and computerises the equipment that prints our banknotes. History repeating itself? Sort of.

Rajasthan, literally meaning Land of Kings, was once a collection of states ruled by individual Rajas (Kings). Today it is the largest state in India, and the region's sumptuous past is recalled through the many palaces and forts. Arriving in Jaipur, the state's capital, we noticed that camel carts now accompany those pulled by cows and horses. And the vibrant reds, saffrons, limes, cobalts and golds of the many sarees, punctuate the sandy colours of the desert and the pinky red tone of the Old City's architecture.

We visited Amber Fort the afternoon we arrived in Jaipur. Amber (or Amer) was once the capital of the Kachhwaha Maharajas (before Jaipur) and was built by Raja Man Singh I in 1592. The fort resides on top of a hill, and overlooks the small village of Amber and the manmade Maota Lake and gardens.
We followed the route that dignitaries and royal cavalcades (processions on horseback) would once take, entering through the Sun Gate after winding up the wide pathway, into the first main courtyard (called the Jaleb Chowk, which means place for soldiers to assemble). From here, one enters the main palace grounds, which houses the Diwan-i-Am (Hall of Public Audiences), through another gate at the top of an impressive staircase.

A focal point of this space is the stunning Ganesh Pol (Ganesh Gate). This is the entrance way into the private palaces of the maharajas, and its intricate design and careful inlay work befits the lifestyle of Mughal royalty. Above this gate is the space called the Suhag Mandir where the women of the royal family would watch functions in the Diwan-i-Am from behind lattice windows, where they could see without being seen, and thereby maintaining purdah (female seclusion and veiling, the term literally means 'curtain').

In the private palaces there is the summer palace, on the second story to catch the breeze, and the winter palace directly below which is covered in mesmerising mirror mosaics.

We passed a group of school children when we were looking around the winter palace. Upon seeing the camera around Ben's neck, they all wanted their photo taken, we certainly didn't mind!
After winding through the hallways and ramps, which are corrugated to act as brakes for the wheeled chairs that royal women (with heavy garments) were pushed around on, you come to the closed off zenana (meaning 'of the women') apartments or harem, where the (many) wives and concubines of the maharaja would spend their time.

A central pavilion where the wives and concubines would congregate (their private apartments surround the central courtyard).
Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II became King of Amber at the age of 11 in 1699. Facing the problem of living space in the small town of Amber, Jai Singh founded the new capital of Jaipur, and turned the walls of the planned city pink (to imitate the red sandstone found in Delhi and Agra), a now identifying feature of this city.
The pink walls and gate leading in to the 'old city' of Jaipur
When he founded his new city, Jai Singh II also decided on the location for the royal cremation grounds, and we visited the awe-inspiring, miniature Taj Mahal cenotaphs belonging to him and his family. The complex is called Gaitore (believed to be a mispronunciation of the Hindi phrase 'Gaye ka Thor' meaning 'resting place of departed souls'). It was peaceful, with only a handful of other visitors, and such a beautiful place to wander and admire.

Our time in Jaipur was also spent visiting the City Palace, which is still the seat of the royal family, the Jantar Mantar, or royal observatory developed by Jai Singh II who had a sincere, and possibly obsessive, love of astronomy, and the Hawa Mahal (Palace of the Winds) that was the harem for the wives and concubines of the maharaja, and originally connected to the main palace complex by underground tunnels.

I saw these Carvela beauties in Kurt Geiger last week and instantly added to them to my mental lust list. A black stiletto is classic, but the unusual shape to this shoe gives it a bit of edge, and I love the flash of neon on the sole!
You may have seen me mention on Twitter that I'm organising a meet up at the end of November (with the help of the lovely Banké).
I haven't picked a place yet (suggestions welcome!) because I want an idea of numbers first and then I can get booking. So let me know in the comments below if you'd like to come and leave me your email address so I can send you all the details that way.
Happy Sunday everyone! Hope you've all had a lovely weekend - I went to see Jake Bugg at Brixton Academy on Friday and he was unbelievable; if you're a fan, definitely try and see him live!
Yesterday was spent wandering around Hampstead Village to blow away the cobwebs, stopping off in little cafes and winding down the afternoon in The Flask.
Today's outfit is a bit Zara-heavy (as is my wardrobe!) I love this dress - I've had it for a couple of years but normally save it for the evenings;this time round I've dressed it down with with a chunky knit and flats. The umbrella isn't a hot new accessory - unfortunately it rains a lot in Britain and it has to be worked around!
I've just realised that my last post was a 'lust of the week' which means I haven't blogged in a week...woops! A combination of bad weather and illness has meant I haven't been able to go out and take outfit pics but hopefully that will resume this weekend!
Back to the topic in hand...a bit of eye candy for you today in the form of this week's lust of the week which comes from the beautiful store that is & Other Stories. This structured embroidered dress is a nod to Mary Katrantzou and the jade green colour is delicious. Want!
In other news, I found out yesterday that I have become part of Access All ASOS! Followers of my blog will know that a hefty chunk of my wardrobe is comprised of ASOS so this is really exciting. Basically, I'll be an 'ASOS insider' and of course will share all the deets on the blog.
Give me anything oversized and I'm sold...I love this coat from ASOS; the colour is everything you want from a winter coat and the simple mannish cut is effortlessly chic. Another one to add to my (ever-growing) lust list!
Just a few of the things inspiring me this month, check out my Pinterest page to see more!
Happy Monday everyone! London has suddenly gotten really cold but I'm actually really glad to get my autumn wardrobe out. I bought this Zara skirt a couple of weeks ago...how cute is it? It's got a great quilted texture and it's really flippy and girly so I decided to toughen it up with boots, a leather jacket and backpack.
My lust this week is this gorgeous navy number from Scandinavian brand Acne. I'm a massive fan of anything minimalist with a bit if an edge and the drape adds just that to this simple shift; so effortless and chic - just like our Scandinavian sisters!
Apologies for the low quality of these photos - we're starting to get to that time of year when there are only a few precious hours in the day with good light to take photos!
I bought this jumper (£15.99...helloooo bargain) and skirt last week and they're proving to be wardrobe staples already. I love pretty much anything leather (real or otherwise) at the moment so I just had to snap up this asymmetric skirt in Topshop, it's so cute!
This week I'm lusting after a matching set of checked top and trousers from Zara. The print is quite minimal but also seems to be bold at the same time...if a print can be both things at once! I saw this set in the flesh the other day and it looks just as good as it does on the model. The boxy shape of the top and ankle-grazer length of the trousers are perfect and the exposed zips give it that extra bit of detail.
I don't think it's a secret that I love clothes but just as important is what goes underneath. I love lacy underwear - it's feels so feminine and luxe, and nothing beats that feeling of well-fitted pretty lingerie.
This tends to come at a price though (boooo), which is why I was so surprised that New Look are offering beautiful underwear at such affordable prices. That burgundy bra for £8.00? Yes please!

HRD to increase nearly 25% seats in universities to implement 10% quota for poor in general category
Union Human Resource Development Minister Prakash Javadekar informed that the decision was taken at a meeting of officials from the ministry, University Grants Commission (UGC) and the All India Council of Technical Education (AICTE).
Reported by: PTI
New Delhi Published on: January 15, 2019 20:35 IST
The HRD Ministry announced Tuesday that it will implement 10 per cent reservation for economically weaker section of the general category from the 2019 academic session and increase around 25 per cent seats in higher educational institutions and universities across the country.
No proposal to bring regulation against arbitrary fee hikes by private schools: HRD Ministry
Over 45 per cent seats vacant in AICTE approved engineering colleges
HRD Ministry's decision to reduce syllabus in schools by 50% is a welcome move: Rathore
IIMC to get deemed university status; HRD Ministry issues Letter of Intent
"The reservation will be implemented from the 2019-2020 academic session itself. Nearly 25 per cent seats will be added to ensure that the reservation does not disturb the existing quota for SC, ST and other categories. There are around 40,000 colleges and 900 universities across the country and supernumerary quota will be provided in these," Javadekar told reporters.
The minister, however, did not specify the number of seats which will be added.
"The modalities are being worked out and within a week's time we will have the exact number of seats that will be added.
The operation manuals about how to implement the quota will be issued soon. The colleges and universities will also be asked to mention the quota in their prospectus as well and make infrastructural arrangements accordingly," he added.
Javadekar also said that the private universities are also ready to implement the quota.
The Rajya Sabha on January 9 approved amending the Constitution to provide 10 per cent reservation to general category poor in jobs and education, with the government terming the landmark move as "slog over sixes".
The quota will be over and above the existing 50 per cent reservation to Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes and Other Backward Classes (OBCs).

Trailer of Rupert Everett's The Happy Prince
Thanks to Sony Pictures Classics here's the US trailer of The Happy Prince, the upcoming period drama movie written and directed by Rupert Everett and starring Rupert Everett as Oscar Wilde:
THE HAPPY PRINCE
The most famous man in London and the most misunderstood.
Plot synopsis;
"In a cheap Parisian hotel room Oscar Wilde lies on his death bed and the past floods back, transporting him to other times and places. Was he once the most famous man in London? The artist crucified by a society that once worshiped him? The lover imprisoned and freed, yet still running towards ruin in the final chapter of his life? Under the microscope of death he reviews the failed attempt to reconcile with his long suffering wife Constance, the ensuing reprisal of his fatal love affair with Lord Alfred Douglas and the warmth and devotion of Robbie Ross who tried and failed to save him from himself. From Dieppe to Naples to Paris freedom is elusive and Oscar is a penniless vagabond, always moving on, shunned by his old acquaintances, but revered by a strange group of outlaws and urchins to whom he tells the old stories – his incomparable wit still sharp. THE HAPPY PRINCE is a portrait of the dark side of a genius who lived and died for love in the last days of the nineteenth century."
Getting out of the closet meant prison back in the day. So, it did get better, didn't it?
Besides Rupert Everett, the cast also includes Colin Morgan, Emily Watson, Colin Firth, Tom Wilkinson, Edwin Thomas, and Anna Chancellor.
US release date: October 5, 2018 (in New York and Los Angeles).

Business leaders today repeated calls for the Government to electrify the Midland Mainline through Leicestershire, following the announcement of a new East Midlands Trains franchise holder.
Abellio will take over the service in August, with the franchise running until 2027.
The Midlands Mainline runs from London St Pancras to Sheffield, and includes Market Harborough, Leicester, Loughborough and East Midlands Parkway stations.
For the past few years the service has been run by the Stagecoach group.
However the current operator was disqualified from the bidding competition following a row over pensions.
The DfT has said Stagecoach's bids for the East Midlands, South Eastern and West Coast franchises were "non-compliant" because they did not meet pensions rules.
Stagecoach chief executive Martin Griffiths said: "We are extremely concerned at both the DfT's decision and its timing.
"The department has had full knowledge of these bids for a lengthy period and we are seeking an urgent meeting to discuss our significant concerns."
Among the promises that secured Abellio the contract were an offer of 80 per cent more peak-time seats on new faster, more comfortable trains and a total investment of more than £600 million in stations and trains.
Free Wi-Fi and better value tickets are also among the improvements Midlands Mainline passengers can expect.
The company has also made a commitment to run trials of hydrogen fuel cells to power trains.
Midlands Connect is a partnership of 22 councils, enterprise partnerships, chambers of commerce and airports, created to win investment for travel and transport in the Midlands.
Its chairman Sir John Peace said they spoke to all the bidders during the refranchising process, and Abellio's vision showed a "strong commitment to significantly improve passengers' experience".
He said: "The 2019-2027 franchise period provides certainty during a momentous time for the Midlands rail network, and regional bodies have an important role in maximising the benefits for passengers and businesses.
"We are looking forward to working closely with Abellio as we develop our transformational Midlands Rail Hub plans to introduce up to 24 new train services every hour across the East and West Midlands, and prepare to integrate these upgrades with vital new High Speed Two services.
"We fully support the move towards a cleaner, greener rail network and we welcome plans to trial hydrogen fuel cell trains on the Midland Main Line (MML).
"We will also continue to make the case for the electrification of the MML beyond Market Harborough, to support Midlands Connect's ambition for direct conventional compatible HS2 services between Leicester and Leeds and Nottingham and Leeds, via the East Midlands Hub at Toton.
Chris Hobson, director of policy at East Midlands Chamber – which covers Leicestershire, Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire – said: "The East Midlands Railway network is vitally important for business, providing essential connections beyond London and Sheffield and also across the country beyond Lincoln and Stoke.
"The new franchise includes exciting plans to improve passenger comfort, seat numbers, free Wi-Fi, more car and cycle parking and new trains, including trialling hydrogen-powered stock.
"We will continue, however, to press the Department for Transport for full electrification of the Midland Main Line so that we can enjoy lighter, cleaner, greener trains and closer integration with HS2 along the route.
Last month the Government confirmed electrification of the mainline will now be extended to Market Harborough.
The Government triggered outrage in 2017 by scrapping £1.1 billion plans to electrify the whole of the line from London St Pancras to Sheffield.
Transport secretary Chris Grayling said the route would only be improved as far as Kettering in Northamptonshire.
He said new 'bi-mode' trains which would run on electricity up to Kettering and then switch to diesel before continuing across the Leicestershire border.
The decision came after millions of pounds had already been spent re-modelling a number bridges in Leicestershire to accommodate the overhead cabling required for electrification.
Since then politicians and business leaders have been pushing Mr Grayling to reverse the decision which they said 'short-changed' the East Midlands.
Campaigners say electrification would shorten journey times and also reduce the amount of pollution from the trains.
Electrification to Market Harborough will now be complete by December 2023.


This week's chart looks at the Dow Jones Industrial Average expressed in terms of the number of ounces of gold it would take to "buy" the DJIA's index value. This is a popular comparison that a lot of chartists like to show, especially when it gets up to a really high level like it did back in 1999-2000, at the end of the tech bubble.
It has been falling since then, as gold prices have gone higher. Having an ounce of gold become more valuable means that it takes less of it to buy something else. And the (violently) sideways movement of the stock market over the past decade has allowed gold's price rise to pull this ratio back down toward "normal" levels seen over the past century.
That tells us about the "when", but it does not tell us about the "how far". The bottoms for this ratio in the 1930s and 1940s were down below 3.0, and it got all the way down to 1.3 at the low in January 1980 (based on monthly closes). If the DJIA were to stay around 12,000 for the next few years, then a ratio of 2-3 would mean gold at around $4000 to $6000 an ounce. Or the ratio could get down below 3 by having gold stay where it is, and the DJIA get cut in half, or some other combination of movements. That's how the math works.
It is risky to forecast both the timing and the price for the end of a trend, so I'll refrain from endorsing those numbers. I just offer them as food for thought. Nothing mandates that this ratio reach any particular level.

The babies are back. Evian rocked the world last time they brought forth the CGI concoctions last time, so now they've returned, and in greater numbers.
Accompanied by a rather fantastic cover of the Beach Boys' Kokomo (you can listen to that here), this high budget epic is the perfect back for kicking back, taking in the sun, and sipping on some smooth, premium, bottled water. The ad itself is, however, also a bit creepy – a world surrounded by sentient, cogent babies, owning property and running beverage stalls. Do babies have the economic savviness and logistical awareness necessary for working in retail? Who knows: we'll let Lord of the Flies Part 2: Surf's Up speak for itself.

Iacovetti, Victoria; Marshall, Jeremy L.
Sleep deprivation is very common among college students, hitting 73% with sleep problems, according to "Regents of the University of Michigan." To study the causes of sleep deprivation, I surveyed fifty students at Kansas State University, asking questions about the students' sleep habits, class load and involvement with athletics, wondering if athletes and those with a heavy course load were more sleep deprived than those not involved in athletics and those with a lighter class schedule. My results showed a positive correlation between athlete involvement and sleep amount. However, I found no correlation between the amount of credit hours taken and whether or not people fall asleep in class. Sleep deprivation is often a result of over-scheduling with classes or being involved with sports or social activities. According to the National Sleep Foundation, with a minimal amount of sleep, this increases fatigue as well as energy and focus, whether it be school work or at game time.


In Prince of Foxes Cesare Borgia (Orson Welles) is a powerful Duke or guild with ambitions to conquer and rule neighboring towns in order, no doubt, to increase his wealth, trade and power in the region.
Historical Novel by Samuel Shellabarger of the same name.
He will chose a man who shares some of his same sentiments and aspirations but who makes well use of his diplomatic abilities. Andrea Orsini (Tyrone Power) is the perfect candidate since he has succeeded in his first mission that involved Borgia brother's wife, Lucretia.
The first step of this tyrannical plan will be to defeat Duke Varano and Orsini is well on his way to make this happen by gaining the old Duke's trust and killing him as soon as may be.
Commerce in the thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth centuries was not between countries but between towns and cities such as Venice, Milan, etc.
As a result merchants arose and became powerful and, of course ambitious. Such is the case of Borgia.
Although the movie is based on a novel of historical fiction published in 1947 by Samuel Shellabarger it realistically portrays life in the 1500s.
Guidance for teens but OK.
Kids. Caution, but OK if you skip over the very scare violence.
Very well adapted message from the book.
Barely any, Children need parental caution and teens guidance.
The young can learn a few things from this film. Life in the 1500s and honesty are the main lessons in this film.
In the film it is clear where a life of deceit and treachery leads.
Treachery needs to be explained to those who can't understand where it leads.
Beautiful story of an honorable man.
Orsini's remarkable ability to recognize his wrongs and walk away from them even influenced two powerful men in Borgia's army. This type of role model often goes unnoticed.

A Shorten Labor Government will strengthen Australia's border security with new measures to disrupt and deter people smugglers from preying on vulnerable people throughout the region.
Labor will triple the number of Australian Federal Police officers overseas dedicated to working cooperatively with partner nations to deter and disrupt people smuggling operations at their source.
These officers are critical in the fight against people smugglers, by preventing risky boat ventures before they start and stopping people drowning at sea.
The Liberals' cuts and chaos mean they have slashed the number of officers to just four dedicated officers covering the entire region. This is putting our border protection framework at risk.
Labor has committed $8.5 million to establish an additional eight dedicated AFP officers throughout the region to support Australia's regional neighbours and prevent people smuggling journeys.
Peter Dutton and Scott Morrison have risked Australia's border security by ordering the Australian Border Force Fleet to stop patrols to save money on fuel and have cut frontline ABF staff at Australian airports over the Christmas period.
Labor will keep the people smugglers out of business and maintain Australia's strong borders, ensuring they are never able to exploit the lives of vulnerable people again.
Labor is committed to strong borders, turnbacks when safe to do so, offshore processing and regional resettlement because we know it saves lives at sea.
Unlike the Liberals, Labor will not make cuts to border protection. Under Labor, Operation Sovereign Borders will be fully resourced, we will maintain Australia's strong border protection measures and strengthen them even further with these new measures to stop people smugglers in their tracks.

World News – USA – How did Eric Clapton escape cancellation, from racial abuse to anti-lockdown songs?
A new online generation has suddenly « discovered » one of the oldest controversies in rock. But is the story more complex and instructive?
Is it too late to cancel Eric Clapton? While the veteran guitarist is getting into controversy, old scandals with depressing predictability have resurfaced.
It started with news that Clapton recorded a single for the singer's Save Live Music Campaign called Stand and Deliver, written by well-known anti-lockdown critic Van Morrison. Pretty soon the internet had erupted with comments not only mocking the 75-year-old rockers for their views on social distancing, but also digging up old remarks to accuse Clapton of doing something much worse. Things were moving pretty quickly, from one user who said, "Here's a terrible song about everyone should die" to another who added, "On the plus side, maybe more people will find out that Eric Clapton is now is a racist hole. « . "
To be fair, this happens to Clapton whenever he does something that has the slightest interest. Yet when another turmoil erupted on stage over his infamous outburst in 1976, anyone expressing freshly-minted outrage might consider that the world had 44 years to boycott Clapton but showed little inclination to do so.
For those new to history – and according to Twitter there are some – it was on a gig in Birmingham in August 1976 when an extremely drunk Clapton walked off the stage on a manure rant and the controversial MPs Enoch Powell praised and claiming Britain would become « a black colony » before spitting insults on those he deemed « not welcome » on Britain's shores. There is no record of Clapton's remarks, so an alleged log in which he states « I used to be on drugs, now I am on racism » should be treated with suspicion. However, it was widely reported that he used racist slurs referring to « foreigners », « c-ns » and « w-gs ». .
It would be a career end if someone had such a vicious crash with their status today. But the world was actually quite disgusted in 1976. Clapton's remarks were labeled « shock horror » by daily newspapers and heavily criticized in the music press. The organization Rock Against Racism was formed in direct response to these statements and did an excellent job of highlighting endemic racism in music and combating the rise of the National Front in Britain. Meanwhile, Clapton continued to release millions of sold albums and played sold-out concerts in some of the largest venues in the world.

I don't think anyone will deny that Clapton's remarks were objectionable. Not even Clapton himself, who over the years has expressed remorse and referred to himself as « disgusted » and « ashamed ». The question is: were Clapton's remarks unforgivable? And the answer is: Definitely not, because Clapton's popularity has endured.
Should you « Is Eric Clapton Racist? » In a search engine, you will find that the controversy is revived every few years when another generation of fans discovers that their idol has clay feet. The remarks were made when Clapton was deeply involved in alcohol and heroin abuse, through his own admission of flirting with « fascism » and « racism » and on a vicious, self-destructive course that would almost certainly have killed him if he did wouldn't have done it. After much personal struggles, things finally got sober in 1989.
Read Clapton's biographies, and the picture of his personality emerging in the 1970s is quite disgusting: a damaged, bitter soul that alienates many of his closest friends with his antisocial rudeness, and 8 monthly. Spent £ 000 on maintaining his heroin habit and performed so drunk that he often had to lie down on stage. « I sabotaged everything I let myself into, » he admitted in an interview in 2018. « I was so ashamed of who I was, some kind of semi-racist, which didn't make any sense. Half of my friends were black, I was with a black woman, and I advocated black music. "
Whatever racist ideas took root in his confused mind, they did not seem to be reflected in his life and work. As a child, Clapton adored black musicians and studied and copied Muddy Waters, BB King, Blind Blake, Bill Broonzy, and other blues players. In the course of his life he often made friends with his heroes, worked with them and used every opportunity to introduce others to their work. In a documentary of his life, Eric Clapton: 12 Bar Blues, BB King is shown proclaiming, « I've never met a better man than my friend Eric Clapton. "
In the 1960s, Clapton was one of his closest friends with Jimi Hendrix, playing on albums by Howling Wolf and Aretha Franklin. He campaigned for reggae artists and recorded Bob Marley's I Shot The Sheriff. Since Clapton got sober, he has shown remorse and tried to make amends. He founded the Crossroads Center, a drug abuse rehabilitation charity on the Caribbean island of Antigua, in 1998 and has supported it ever since. He has been known to work extensively behind the scenes to help other alcoholics and drug addicts. Yet those awful remarks from 1976 still haunt him as they should. He is confronted by them in the 12-Bar-Blues documentary and is visibly shaken, but also at a loss to really explain them. He admitted that it was not easy to watch the documentary and called the racist incident « shocking » and « unforgivable ». "
For some people, Clapton will always be dominated by his worst and most humiliating moment. However, I suspect most of the name-calling came from those who didn't really like him at all. It is a certain joy to see Clapton regularly being attacked for something he expressly regrets. For example, it is interesting to compare Elvis Costello, who appears to have been extensively forgiven for the racist remark that led to the failure of his career in America in 1979. Costello drunk and labeled Ray Charles « blind, ignorant, n —– » in a barroom dispute, but his explanations and apologies have now been accepted and the incident is now rarely mentioned except as a footnote in his career.
Perhaps this is partly because Costello never achieved the cultural significance of Clapton, where the common listener must take a position: for or against. I wonder how much of the hatred that is regularly unleashed online comes from those who find Clapton's blues style anathema. For the majority of his fans, this is just old news that pointlessly flares up again.
Clapton will never be allowed to live what he has said, and he cannot really complain about it. Nevertheless, he was allowed to continue his career. His new single will be released on Friday. And however you feel about rock stars fighting lockdown, it has been criticized worse in the past. I suspect it's too late to stop him now.
