Milo Ventimiglia Talks Filming that Devastating This Is Us Death
By Lindsay MacDonaldFeb 5, 2018 7:41 PM EST
This Is Us: Brian Tyree Henry Will Not Return
Bitsie Tulloch Teases Upcoming Superman & Lois Series
(Beware: This post contains major spoilers for Jack's death on This Is Us.)
There aren't many things as painful as realizing that the This Is Us family patriarch is well and truly dead — at least until you realize that Milo Ventimiglia surprised Mandy Moore by being his own body double in that scene where Rebecca walks in to find his dead body.
Mandy Moore told Entertainment Weekly that she assumed she'd be walking into an empty room, since the shot was just supposed to be her and Rebekah's reaction when faced with Jack's dead body. Moore called it "jarring," but to Ventimiglia, it was important that he be there in that moment.
"I know how I am with regards to moments of experience, especially moments of experience between Jack and Rebecca, and I wanted to - not throw a curveball at Mandy, but I wanted to be there," Ventimiglia told reporters today. "You know, it's one thing to have to act alone, it's another thing to take the history that she and I have worked on for two years and be a still lifeless body there in front of her. I was ultimately hearing her just break and fall to a million pieces, and that might have been the hardest thing to film, not because I had to lay still, but because I was listening to my friend crumbling."
This Is Us Finally Reveals How Jack Pearson Really Died
We'll just let you sit with that for second.
All cried out? It sounds like the perfect time to move on to filming the final scene between Jack and Rebecca before that, and how it felt to film it knowing that it was this couple's last moment together.
"Mandy and I, over the course of filming this show, have grown to appreciate the time that we get together, but knowing that that was the last time for Jack and Rebecca was especially painful," Ventimiglia says. "We had to keep and eye on ourselves - that we weren't, I guess, playing too much into it — because the truth is Jack and Rebecca made it out of the fire, and to all their knowledge the hard part was done... so we didn't want to put too much into the body language or the way they responded to one another. It was just Jack and Rebecca sitting there as they have in the past, reflecting on what that hospital means to them or getting beyond the event that they just pretty much walked away from. We were doing our best to just be Jack and Rebecca at any given moment, dealing with any given thing."
There may not have been an epic goodbye or a tearful this is the end type of moment, but ultimately the way it played out rings truer (and more painfully) than any epic parting. Jack's last words to Rebecca were a joke about how she was blocking the TV, and if laughter and lightheartedness doesn't doesn't define this couple, then nothing else really can.
This Is Us airs Tuesdays at 9/8c on NBC.

The Super Wealthy Oxycontin Family Supports School Privatization With Tactics Similar to Those That Fueled the Opioid Epidemic
Posted on November 14, 2017 by Yves Smith
By Sarah Darer Littman, the author of middle-grade and young adult novels,, who has previously written for Hearst Newspapers and CTNewsJunkie.com. She teaches writing in the MFA program at Western CT State University and at the Yale Summer Writers' Workshop. Follow her on Twitter @realsamerica. Originally published at Alternet
The notoriously secretive Sackler family, also known as the OxyContin Clan, has been the subject of much scrutiny of late, including lengthy exposés in the New Yorker and Esquire shining a harsh light on the connection between the drug that made the Sacklers wealthy and their philanthropic giving. But there is another troubling beneficiary of Sackler largesse that has escaped public scrutiny: charter schools. OxyContin heir and Purdue Pharma director Jonathan Sackler is a major funder of charters and an extensive network of pro-charter advocacy groups.
Figuring out who is funding the latest charter school-promoting front group often feels like a game of whack-a-mole. That's why reading Patrick Radden Keefe's recent New Yorker piece, "The Family That Built an Empire of Pain," made so much fall into place. Keefe writes, "Purdue and other pharmaceutical companies have long funded ostensibly neutral nonprofit groups that advocate for pain patients."
The same influence techniques Purdue used to promote painkillers are now being used by Jonathan Sackler to expand charter schools.
Promotional Power
The late Arthur Sackler, the eldest of three brothers who bought the company in 1952, was posthumously inducted into the Medical Advertising Hall of Fame, and cited for his achievement in "bringing the full power of advertising and promotion to pharmaceutical marketing." Yet Allen Frances, former chair of psychiatry at Duke University School of Medicine, quoted in the New Yorker piece, highlighted the darker side of that power: "Most of the questionable practices that propelled the pharmaceutical industry into the scourge it is today can be attributed to Arthur Sackler." As a copywriter at a medical advertising agency, Arthur Sackler devised strategies to promote drugs like Librium and Valium. Now, some of those same strategies are now being used with the aim of promoting charter schools.
Jonathan Sackler, Arthur's nephew, is a well-known name in the education reform movement. He founded the charter school advocacy group ConnCan, progenitor of the nationwide group 50CAN, of which he is a director. He is on the Board of Directors of the Achievement First charter school network. Until recently, Sackler served on the board of the New Schools Venture Fund, which invests in charter schools and advocates for their expansion. He was also on the board of the pro-charter advocacy group Students for Education Reform.
Through his personal charity, the Bouncer Foundation, Sackler donates to the abovementioned organizations, and an ecosystem of other charter school promoting entities, such as Families for Excellent Schools ($1,083,333 in 2014, $300,000 in 2015 according to the Foundation's Form 990s) Northeast Charter School Network ($150,000 per year in 2013, 2014 and 2015) and $275,000 to Education Reform Now (2015) and $200,000 (2015) to the Partnership for Educational Justice, the group founded by Campbell Brown which uses "impact litigation" to go after teacher tenure laws. Earlier this year, the Partnership for Educational Justice joined 50CAN, which Sackler also funds ($300,000 in 2014 and 2015), giving him a leadership role in the controversial—and so far failing cause—of weakening worker protections for teachers via the courts.
Just as Arthur Sackler founded the weekly Medical Tribune, to promote Purdue products to the medical professional who would prescribe them, Jon Sackler helps to fund the74million.org, the "nonpartisan" education news website founded by Campbell Brown. The site, which received startup funding from Betsy DeVos, decries the fact that "the education debate is dominated by misinformation and political spin," yet is uniformly upbeat about charter schools while remarkably devoid of anything positive to say about district schools or teachers unions.
The Sackler "special sauce" is vertical integration. As far back as the early 1960's, staffers for Tennessee Senator Estes Kefauver prepared a memo for a subcommittee he chaired that was looking into the rapidly growing pharmaceutical industry.
"The Sackler empire is a completely integrated operation in that it can devise a new drug in its drug development enterprise, have the drug clinically tested and secure favorable reports on the drug from various hospitals with which they have connections, conceive the advertising approach and prepare the actual advertising copy with which to promote the drug, have the clinical articles as well as advertising copy published in their own medical journals, [and] prepare and plant articles in newspapers and magazines."
This was used to great effect in promoting OxyContin. Art Van Zee MD looked at the Marketing and Promotion of OxyContin and found that in 2001 alone, the company spent over $200 million to market and promote the drug through a variety of methods. In the settlement in the US District Court of Western Virginia, the company admitted to misbranding the drug with the intent to defraud and mislead the public.
The company was lavish with branded swag for health care practitioners. According to a GAO report, these included, "OxyContin fishing hats, stuffed plush toys, coffee mugs with heat-activated messages, music compact discs, luggage tags, and pens containing a pullout conversion chart showing physicians how to calculate the dosage to convert a patient to OxyContin from other opioid pain relievers."
The GAO report went on to quote the DEA as saying the Purdue's use of branded promotional items in the marketing of OxyContin was "was unprecedented among schedule II opioids, and was an indicator of Purdue's aggressive and inappropriate marketing of OxyContin."
The description of "lavish swag" will sound familiar to anyone who has witnessed one of the no-expenses-spared charter school rallies that are a specialty of Sackler-funded organizations like Families for Excellent schools. Then there is the dizzying array of astroturf front groups all created for the purpose of demanding more charter schools. Just in Connecticut, we've had the Coalition for Every Child, A Better Connecticut, Fight for Fairness CT, Excel Bridgeport, and the Real Reform Now Network. All of these groups ostensibly claim to be fighting for better public schools for all children. In reality, they have been lobbying to promote charter schools, often running afoul of ethics laws in the process.
Take Families for Excellent Schools, a "grassroots" group that claims to be about parent engagement, yet was founded by major Wall Street players. In Connecticut, the group failed to register its Coalition for Every Child as a lobbying entity and report a multimillion-dollar ad buy expenditure and the costs of a rally in New Haven.
In Massachusetts, Families for Excellent Schools-Advocacy (FESA) recently had to cough up more than $425,000 to the Massachusetts general fund as part of a legal settlement with the Office of Campaign and Political Finance, the largest civil forfeiture in the agency's 44-year history. Massachusetts officials concluded that FESA violated the campaign finance law by receiving contributions from individuals and then contributing those funds to the Great Schools Massachusetts Ballot Question Committee, which sought to lift the cap on the number of charter schools in the state, in a manner intended to disguise the true source of the money. As part of the settlement, the group was ordered to reveal the names of its secret donors. Jonathan Sackler was one of them.
Patrick Riccards, a former CEO of ConnCan, the pro-charter group that Sackler founded in 2005, told me, "Jon went to Berkeley and in many ways fits into that idealistic mold. But at the same time it was he who made it clear to me that one of the reasons ConnCan existed was to leverage the investment in the charter community, in Achievement First, which is still the dominant charter school network in the state. [CT] The venture capital community … has put tons of money into seeing Achievement First grow, first in Connecticut, then in New York, then in Rhode Island."
It's all part of the model, concluded Riccards. "While you have a public vision of great public schools for all, ConnCan's focus was: how does the charter industry continue to grow? Every year, ConnCan's fight was how do we increase the number of seats, and how do we increase the per pupil expenditure?"
Staggering Toll
OxyContin was approved for use in treating moderate to severe pain in 1995. Purdue was determined to make the drug a hit, and funded doctors like Russell Portenoy, who said in a 1993 interview with the New York Times: "There is a growing literature showing that these drugs can be used for a long time, with few side effects and that addiction and abuse are not a problem."
Except that the literature was based on short-term usage, not on long-acting opioids taken over extended periods of time. By 2003, Portenoy admitted to the Times that he had misgivings about how he and other pain specialists had used the research. Although he had not intended to mischaracterize it or to mislead fellow doctors, he had tried to counter claims that overplayed the risk of addiction. But if not for such mischaracterizations, the Sacklers wouldn't be as wealthy, and America might not be suffering from a public health crisis that is costing the country an estimated $78.5 billion a year.
Even as the scope and scale of the opioid epidemic unfolds, the fortune OxyContin built continues to grow. In the case of OxyContin heir Jonathan Sackler, part of that fortune is being devoted to expanding charter schools and weakening protections for teachers in traditional public schools. Patrick Keefe's New Yorker feature ends with a stunning statistic: "An addicted baby is now born every half hour." He asks whether such devastation should give pause to organizations that benefit from the Sacklers' extensive philanthropy. In the case of the charter schools and education reform advocacy groups that Jonathan Sackler funds, the answer to that question should be obvious.

Does anyone know why he is so keen on charter schools?
Also: "To be fair, Jonathan Sackler has battled his own addiction issues. The dude seems to be seriously hooked on phony education reform groups…
Sadly for Sackler, the addiction seems to be hereditary. In 2010 his daughter Madeleine released a "documentary" called "The Lottery," chronicling four New York City kids competing to get into a New York City Charter School. The Wall Street Journal praised the film, noting hopefully that it "could change the national debate about public education." No mention of Ms. Sackler's antecedents–or the role of OxyContin sales in funding her film–was ever made."

Money, would be my guess. The point is that the playbook used to make billions, and eventually causing tens or a thousand times the damage, society wide, is being used again. The charter schools are being set up the same way. The media marketing and coordinated BS sets this slow motion train wreck into motion and the basic question is, do you want the geniuses that fostered the opioid epidemic running the school system?

The charter school movement is a sneak attack on democracy. Public education is an essential element of the democratic infrastructure; destroy it and the whole edifice begins to crumble. According to "Democracy in Chains" by Nancy MacLean, this has long been the plan of our economic overlords.

Indeed. When Tribhuvan University was opened in Kathmandu, Nepal – the first institution of higher ed in the country – the monarch at the time was said to have remarked, "we have taken an ax to our own legs." Meaning that the monarchy needed an uneducated populace to carry on it's unfettered power, and that helping citizens exercise their intellect was likely to turn into an own-goal for the royal family. And they were right.
It works the same in every country, and the Sacklers know the danger of education and the value of ignorance for those who seek to be in control of society just as well as the Nepali royals.

Might be misremembering the details, but I believe there is some sort of financial shenanigan under the tax code by which super high net worth individuals can save absurd amounts of taxes theoretically owed via investment (or donation) to charter schools. Something to do with all that. Some sort of elaborate 3rd-order loophole effect.
I wish I could remember where I read that, but it does make seem to explain the odd attractiveness the concept holds for DeVos/billionaire types.
Allegorio November 14, 2017 at 10:39 pm
Likewise, investors lease the buildings charter schools use taking a lion's share of the tuition, as opposed to investors being taxed to build public school infrastructure and paying union salaries.

Well, whatever someone did one of the biggest chinese vendors of fentanyl on the dark web just closed up shop saying it's now illegal in china and too dangerous. So expect the narrative to switch to people dieing of forced withdrawal soon. There is no way that the Heroin market is sufficient to cover the masses of people on fentanyl and it will be a while before the gangs in mexico figure out the much more complicated synthesis of fentanyl and make it pure enough for distribution. After all they don't even bother refining black tar heroin (west coast from mexico) further to the more potent china white (east coast from asia). Also, it's much harder to cut fentanyl with black tar to increase potency. Mexico will probably try it now that there is an opening in the market but there will be at least a month or two of no supply.

Home News B.C. Premier Clark announces upcoming changes to the public service
Premier Clark announces upcoming changes to the public service
Premier Christy Clark
VICTORIA – Premier Christy Clark today announced upcoming changes to key
positions in the BC Public Service:
After 27 years of serving the Province, John Dyble, deputy minister to
the Premier, cabinet secretary and head of the public service, will
retire effective March 24, 2016.
Dyble's public service career started in Smithers in 1980, as an
engineering student on a survey crew. Nine years later, after working as
a consulting engineer in the developing world, Dyble formally joined the
BC Public Service. Establishing himself as a leader on major B.C.
infrastructure projects, Dyble rose to become deputy minister of
transportation and infrastructure. He was deputy minister of health,
responsible for developing and delivering government's health innovation
agenda, when appointed deputy minister to Premier Clark in 2011.
During his five year tenure as lead deputy, Dyble helped manage and
deliver key government priorities such as successive balanced budgets,
the BC Jobs Plan, Crown corporation reviews and long-term labour
agreements. As head of the public service, Dyble has worked to build a
strong corporate executive and maintain the BC Public Service as one of
Canada's top employers.
"John's work, over a remarkable career, has literally spanned and helped
to build our province," said Premier Clark. "I thank John for what he has
accomplished for British Columbia, and I am honoured to have had him as
my partner in the public service for the past five years. He leaves the
BC Public Service in excellent hands."
Kim Henderson, currently deputy minister of finance and secretary to
treasury board, will become deputy minister to the Premier, cabinet
secretary and head of the public service effective March 25, 2016.
Henderson joined the BC Public Service in 1996. Before her appointment to
the Ministry of Finance, Henderson was deputy minister of corporate
initiatives (Office of the Premier) where she provided leadership on
numerous cross-ministry files and served as the public service lead for
the government's Core Review initiative. Previously, Henderson served as
deputy minister of labour and deputy minister of citizens' services and
open government (now the Ministry of Technology and Citizen Services)
leading the development of B.C.'s open government strategy which won the
IPAC/Deloitte Public Sector Leadership Award. Henderson holds a master's
degree in public administration from the University of Victoria.
Athana Mentzelopoulos, currently deputy minister of jobs, tourism, and
skills training and ministry responsible for labour (JTST), will become
deputy minister of finance and secretary to treasury board effective
Mentzelopoulos first joined the BC Public Service in 2004, serving as
deputy minister responsible for intergovernmental relations, public
affairs and board resourcing and development (BRDO) until 2009. After
serving as director general of consumer product safety for the government
of Canada, she rejoined the BC Public Service in 2011 as deputy minister
of strategic priorities (Office of the Premier), followed by deputy
minister for government communications and public engagement (including
responsibility for intergovernmental relations and BRDO).
Mentzelopoulos was appointed deputy minister of JTST in 2014, responsible
for developing government's economic development policy. She holds a
master of arts degree from the University of Victoria.

Whicker: Patrick Cantlay, back from the wilderness
Patrick Cantlay holds the championship trophy following the final-round playoff at the Shriners Hospitals for Children Open golf tournament at TPC Summerlin earlier this month in Las Vegas. (AP Photo/L.E. Baskow)
By Mark Whicker | mwhicker@scng.com | Daily News
He was the world's top amateur in 2011.
He won a PGA Tour event in Las Vegas on Nov. 5.
Somehow Patrick Cantlay made it through the in-between, .
One swing, in May of 2013, robbed him of golf. A hit-and-run driver, in February of 2016, removed his best friend.
The days stretched on in slow-motion cruelty, with visits to therapists and doctors around the U.S. and the world, with card games at Virginia Country Club in Long Beach, where teacher Jamie Mulligan resides and where his dad Steve was club champion.
"You don't want to play gin with him," Mulligan said. "He's at a different level."
Cantlay's cards have always been tight to the vest. But when he steered a 4-iron shot around two trees and over the green on the second playoff hole, and made par when Whee Kim and Andrew Cejka couldn't, he had finished a comeback that had been brewing, in golf's underbrush, for months.
Or maybe he just began one.
"I feel like somebody hit a pause button," Cantlay said. 'It's been so long, a lot of hard work, a lot of low points."
Now Cantlay can plot his own schedule. He returns to the Masters, but then he had already qualified by making the 30-man Tour Championship last year, a towering accomplishment in itself.
Cantley played 2017 under a Major Medical Exemption. He needed to earn $627,000 in 10 starts to keep his PGA Tour card. He took care of it in two starts, with a runner-up finish in Tampa, to Adam Hadwin, and a $680K check. As others congratulated Cantlay, he shrugged and said he didn't finish the deal. To those in Cantlay's life, that was pitch-perfect.
He had three other top-10 finishes and made all 13 cuts. In the 2017-18 season he finished 15th in the World Golf Championships event in Shanghai and then won in Vegas. He is ranked fourth in driving distance.
"He beat all those other guys before," said Dane Jako, Cantlay's coach at Servite High. "There's no reason he won't do it again."
"He's a man now," Mulligan said. "He still has the same game, but when he was the top-ranked amateur he looked like a kid. With him it's still about the process, and even during the tough times I didn't see any doubt that he was coming back."
He has a lot to come back to. Cantlay was the No. 1 amateur for a record 55 weeks. Hideki Matsuyama was No. 4 on that list in 2011, and when Cantlay turned pro, Jordan Spieth succeeded him.
That was the year Cantlay made the top 25 in four pro events, was 21st at the U.S. Open and shot a 60 at Hartford.
Paul Goydos, another of Mulligan's clients, was told by a GolfChannel.com reporter that Cantlay was pondering another year at UCLA. "I hope he gets his master's," Goydos joked.
But in May of 2013 Cantlay was visited by the golfer's nightmare. His back popped on a drive at Colonial, on Thursday, and he bogeyed three of the first seven holes and walked in.
He played three more times that year, finishing second, somehow, in a Web.com event. He played six times in 2014 and made two cuts. He played once in 2015, did not play in 2016. By that time Spieth was PGA Player of the Year and a Masters and U.S. Open champion.
Cantlay had suffered a stress fracture. The prescription was rest. He couldn't even bowl or shoot baskets. He would occasionally swing a club but the pain always caught up. He went to Germany and tried regenokine, the blood extraction therapy that Kobe Bryant also tried.
In February of 2016 he and Chris Roth were visiting some late-night haunts in Newport Beach, on foot. Roth was a valued friend, Cantlay's caddie on his first Masters trip, when Cantley went eagle-birdie-birdie on 15-16-17 on Sunday and shot 72.
A speeding driver hit Roth and knocked him skyward, and Cantlay rushed over and held him, oblivious to the blood. The driver disappeared and Cantlay receded, admitting later to Damian Dottore of The Register that "nothing felt like it mattered."
But he kept searching. He went to Mark Kozuki, owner of Elite Performance PT in Costa Mesa, and there the answer emerged, not in Cantlay's back but his abdomen.
When Cantlay was two months old doctors performed kidney surgery that left a scar. Through the years the scar tissue hardened and deepened. Kozuki saw it and sensed the answer.
"This was probably the toughest scar tissue I'd had to deal with," Kozuki said. "But it's not uncommon. You can fracture your ankle, then pick something up and throw out your back. It's because the scar tissue is blocking the pathways.
"The key was Patrick saying that if something had a one percent chance of working, he would try it. He was on a mission."
Kozuki used his hands to break down the scar tissue. He does it regularly today. Cantlay regained his range of motion. In February he made the cut at Pebble Beach. In March came Tampa.
"Now he can move his body better and probably doesn't have to swing as hard," Kozuki said.
Cantlay played 56 competitive rounds in 2017 without a significant twinge. When he walked off the winning green in Vegas, his parents were waiting, and so were Chris Roth's.
Time and space and friends can't be replaced. But order can return, and a survivor can advance.

Interview: Alan Digweed, aka Tweedy the Clown, stars in Waiting for Godot
PUBLISHED: 10:39 05 February 2019
Alan Digweed aka Tweedy the Clown (c) Antony Thompson/TWM
© Thousand Word Media
Never one to be typecast, the Cotswolds' favourite clown is treading the boards this month in Samuel Beckett's most iconic play
Two hungry, battered drifters wait by a dead tree, waiting for Mr Godot. He might turn up, but probably not.
This month the Everyman Theatre company is bringing Samuel Beckett's iconic play to Cheltenham, starring – wait for it – none other than Alan Digweed...better known to Gloucestershire audiences of course as Tweedy – star of Giffords Circus and the Everyman's pantos.
We were intrigued enough to demand some time with Alan to find out more...
How did the role of Estragon in Waiting for Godot come about, Alan?
Chatting with the chief executive of The Everyman Theatre, Mark Goucher, I said I'd like to try acting again. We looked at a number of plays, and then Mark suggested Waiting for Godot.
I first heard about this play from Bill Irwin. He is an American clown and actor who has won two Tony awards, one for his acting and one for his clown show. I was lucky enough to spend time with him when he was performing in the West End with 'Who's Afraid of Virginia Wolf' in 2006. As he didn't know anyone in London he was happy to spend time with me, playing and passing on his clown knowledge.
He appeared in Godot as Lucky with Steve Martin and Robin Williams and has a deep love for Beckett, so much so that he is currently performing a show called 'So Beckett' in NY which he has devised.
Years later, when I was performing in New York, he was appearing in 'Waiting for Godot' as Vladimir along with Nathan Lane (Estragon) John Goodman (Pozzo) and John Glover (Lucky). I thought it was amazing and have thought about doing the play ever since. So when Mark suggested Waiting for Godot, I jumped at the chance.
Waiting for Godot at Cheltenham's Everyman Theatre, starring Alan Digweed
Are you nervous as to how you'll be received by audiences in the Cotswolds who know and love you so well as Tweedy the Clown?
In a way there's less pressure in doing a play because as a clown the character is yours, the material is yours; I have to write it, decide on what music to use, lighting, costume, etc. So with this it's just really about my acting. I'm more nervous about how the play will be received as it's a tricky play to get right.
I think it takes a bit of work to get the comedy right; the language of the play takes care of itself, the structure of the play takes care of itself but the comedy won't take care of itself unless it's delivered. Getting that balance right between the comedy and tragedy is the hard part. The play seems to divide people; some people hate it, some love it and then there's the die-hard fans who are just as hard to please as they have an idea of how they think the play should be done and they'll know all the lines so we can't get any of them wrong.
So, yes, I am a bit nervous as to how it'll be received.
How much of Tweedy's physicality will you be bringing to the role?
As much as possible, play to your strengths. I saw Lee Evans in Pinter sketches recently (I got to meet him too) and he really brings his trademark physicality to his roles, which is what I hope to do with Estragon.
The director Paul Milton is also talking about the set being designed to utilise the physical aspects as much as we can.
What do you think of the character Estragon – do you think you'd like him if you happened upon him by a tree one day?
I'm drawn to low-status downtrodden characters. When I first started clowning it was the hobo (tramp) clowns that first drew my attention. Emmet Kelly was the most famous of this type, based on the hobos in America that used to ride the trains.
I think I would like him; I find him very intriguing. There's also an old music hall feel to all the characters in the play.
It was a tough choice on whether to play him or Vladimir… I even asked Paul recently if he thought we'd made the right choice (I think we did). Estragon I think is the lower status of the two and is more physical.
Who else is in this production?
Jeremy Stockwell (as Vladimir), Mark Roper (Pozzo) and Murray Andrews (Lucky). Mark I've worked with before in Dick Whittington when he played the dame, so it's good to have a familiar face.
What do you think of the description of Waiting For Godot as being 'a play in which nothing happens, twice'?
I find it amusing. One of my favourite sitcoms, Seinfeld, was also described as a show where nothing happens. I think it's because it's about the characters and how they're feeling instead of what happens.
I find it funny that the audience are watching a play about two characters waiting, and at the same time they're waiting. So much of life is about waiting.
It's a play that really makes you think, even if it is just "what on earth was that all about?" And of course there's lots of action, but because of the absurdist nature of the play it's hard to explain what has actually happened.
It's often said that Vladimir and Estragon are like an 'old married couple'. Do you think this is fair?
I think that's a fair point; they've spent so much time together in the same way that an old married couple would, and they find each other annoying yet at the same time they can't seem to part. They've also been likened to Laurel and Hardy which is another reason it appeals.
I know this is a rotten question – sorry! – but who is Godot?
Nobody really knows, not even Vladimir and Estragon.
Where else will we be able to see you in 2019?
I'll be touring my new magic show 'Tweedy's Illusion Confusion' February to April, then back at Giffords Circus May to September, so quite busy.
Waiting for Godot is at the Everyman Theatre, Cheltenham, from February 7-16. There will be a post-show question and answer session with director Paul Milton and the cast on Tuesday, February 12.

It depends on the type of sale. If it's for your personal profit, then yes, technically you'd need be registered. However, as a one-time thing at such a spontaneous event, it really wouldn't make sense for you to go through that process. I would think you'd be fine just selling under the table.

URBAN TACTICS; Enchanted by Cities
By JIM O'GRADY MARCH 9, 2003
THIS may be the most subtle plan to change the world the Ivy League has yet produced. At its center are three recent Yale graduates: Adam Gordon, Seth A. Brown and Anika Singh.
They have a vision for The Next American City, which happens to be the title of the quarterly magazine they just began. Let others of their generation produce the next killer computer code or breakthrough indie film, this group believes that the road to global transformation runs through the realm of -- get ready -- housing, transportation and land use policy.
Non-wonks may scoff. But these three young thinkers -- Ms. Singh is from Queens, Mr. Gordon from South Brunswick, N.J., and Mr. Brown from Denver -- ask epic questions. Will we have more successful spaces like bustling Arthur Avenue in the Bronx and the complex outdoor plaza at Rockefeller Center, or will we have desolate spots like housing projects that are hard by major roadways and cut off from nearby neighborhoods? Will we devise more fruitful ways of relating the countryside to downtown, or will we accept ever more suburban sprawl and poverty-pocketed cities?
The three, who met in their Yale residential college, Branford, give such topics a thorough going over in the first issue of their magazine, which had 46 pages and an apple-green cover and featured such articles as ''How New York Lost Its Accent'' and ''Green Building on the Site of the World Trade Center.''
''There's no one really asking the question, 'What is the future of our communities?''' Mr. Gordon contended recently at the Brasil Coffee House in Long Island City, Queens, where he was joined by Mr. Brown and Ms. Singh. One spur for their magazine is that, after decades of suburbanization, cities are reviving -- New York being a standout example and Long Island City being one of its awakening neighborhoods.
Ask the three how they got interested in urban and suburban planning and they reply with a kind of group answer about their college's hometown.
Mr. Brown: ''New Haven has been tinkered with for decades by people who think they know how to solve all its problems.''
Ms. Singh: ''Just driving downtown is a crash course in what to do wrong.''
Mr. Gordon: ''For example, a thruway cutting off people from the waterfront.''
Ms. Singh: ''Which has happened everywhere.''
Mr. Brown: ''In New York.''
There was a pause as everyone thought about the long era during which Robert Moses barged large roads through established neighborhoods.
Mr. Gordon: ''Robert Moses went to Yale.''
Mr. Brown: ''Class of '09.''
The three say that if nothing else, they learned from the Moses record that complex problems cannot be solved by a gargantuan, one-size-fits-all master plan pushed through by unchecked bureaucrats.
''People react against you if you say you're going to create this great plan of how things are going to work for the next 50 years,'' said Mr. Gordon, who works for the Baltimore Regional Partnership, a nonprofit housing and environmental group.
''It's a classic blunder,'' added Mr. Brown, who works for Hudson Companies, a Manhattan developer.
THEIR magazine aims to chart a pragmatic third way between those who believe the free market should dictate development and those who put faith in regulation and government spending.
''Our goal is to become the premiere national magazine looking at how cities and suburbs have changed and how they should change,'' Mr. Brown said. He has no office, but he does have a ''cybercollective'' of about 100 people, many of them recent Yale graduates, who donate time and energy to the effort. (Parents and others chipped in $10,000 in seed money.) Mr. Brown is the publisher, Mr. Gordon the editor and Ms. Singh, a student at New York University Law School, a contributing editor.
Mr. Brown said the magazine should fill a niche between professional journals with useful but jargon-filled articles like ''The Determinants of Agglomeration,'' and glossy design magazines with their four-color fetishization of the interiors of the prosperous.
They would rather put out nonideological versions of City Journal, a monthly published by the conservative Manhattan Institute, and of the liberal City Limits, a news magazine about New York urban affairs. Such magazines can have surprisingly great impact. City Journal is credited with giving force in the 90's to arguments for tax cuts and welfare restrictions, policies later adopted by a close reader, Rudolph W. Giuliani.
At $9 for a single copy, The Next American City is not yet ready to compete with Teen People. But Mr. Brown said about 350 people had taken out $29 yearly subscriptions -- many of them leaders who decide where the concrete is poured -- and he hopes to get the magazine on the newsstand by its third issue. Mr. Brown is also applying for foundation money. (To subscribe, you can log on to www.americancity.org.)
He and his classmates might be called Garvinites. He and Mr. Gordon took a course at Yale taught by Prof. Alexander Garvin that famously conveys the notion that government can set off economic development by investing in public spaces. Build a Central Park and you'll produce great economic value in the many surrounding blocks. Or build a Grand Central Terminal and businesses will line up to catch the workers pouring off its trains.
The three students want their magazine to be the place where people hash out such strategies. For them, the real action in the design competition for the trade center site was not signature buildings or a memorial but how things look at street level. Will the sidewalks be inviting? Where will the trees go?
As to the chosen project, by Daniel Libeskind, Mr. Gordon said, ''The tourists will be there on the street, but the question is whether the design is going to encourage the people who work in the new buildings to go out and get something to eat or take the elevator to the basement and catch the train home.''
Paul Goldberger, architecture critic for The New Yorker, said he was impressed by the magazine. ''It's very clear they were paying attention'' to Mr. Garvin, he said. He should know; he took the class in the early 70's.
Mr. Garvin himself said he approved of his students' endeavor. ''It's exciting that they have decided to raise a public dialogue on these issues,'' he said. He went on to compare them to Henry R. Luce and Briton Hadden, graduates from the class of 1920 who founded their own publication in New York at an early age.
''The last time a group of Yalies decided to do something like this,'' he said, ''we got Time magazine.''
A Sound Soon Past
In an essay in the premiere issue of The Next American City, Daniel Brook recalled the day in 2000 that a co-worker from Oklahoma, a man who had earned a degree in urban studies from Columbia two years before, asked an unexpected question about a voice on the intercom.
''Package fuh Murray. Murray comeah to the reception area and get yuh package!''
''What kind of accent is that?'' asked my Okie colleague.
I chuckled, ''Yeah, thats a nice thick one, isnt it.''
As the child of a Brooklynite and an Alabamian, I never have had much of a New York accent. I always figured that America's two strongest regional accents canceled each other out.
''No really, what kind of accent is that? Ive never heard anything like it,'' my coworker persisted.
I gave him a puzzled look and replied, ''Um, thats a New York accent.'' I thought being on West 34th Street in the heart of Manhattan might have tipped him off.
And then it hit me. If you moved to New York City in 1998 and got a degree from its most prestigious university studying, of all things, urbanism, it is plausible that you might not be able to identify a New York accent. Surely my co-worker had come in contact with a New York accent before, but it takes a critical mass of accented individuals for a newcomer to attribute it to the city as a whole. Had he attended Columbia in years past, it would be likely that his professor, his landlord, his grocer and his local cop would have all shared the same accent. By 1998, this was no longer the case.

Out of the mob there were three quite weak ones. Two of these had to be tube fed and had been for the last four days. One of these guys was very lethargic.
I went and got the Kryptade ready for next morning. Tube fed both of them again for breakfast with Kryptade. By lunchtime (another Kryptade feed) the guy that was very lethargic was trying to get up and looked more alert and drank (with help) from a teat. The other one which hasn't ever drunk properly – was up at drinker and drank by herself well.
I wished I had started them Friday – we may have been able to save the other two that we lost on Monday morning.
This morning – everyone was up at drink station position looking for their breakfast.


Thanks to the enthusiasm and loyalty of our members, 2018 has been an exciting year for Museums Northumberland. So far, we've welcomed more than 15,000 members to Berwick Museum and Art Gallery, Hexham Old Gaol, Morpeth Chantry Bagpipe Museum and Woodhorn Museum.
In thanking our members for their support in 2018, we invite you reflect on highlights of the past year and to also enjoy a preview of what's in store for 2019.
From 16th February-22nd April 2019, we move into the Spring season of Coal Forest 'Grow'.
'Grow' launches our new open art exhibition 'Into the Woods' alongside a programme of nature and wildlife inspired walks, talks and things to do. Highlights include 'Into the Woods': open art exhibition, Wild Wednesdays, and Easter at Woodhorn 2019.
On the weekends and during the Northumberland school holidays of Coal Forest Grow, you can contribute your own artwork to Coal Forest in 'The Fallen Forest'. This magical tree-scape, inspired by the carboniferous forest of long ago, is in our historic Tanky Engine Shed (and former Cage Shop).
The Grow season of Coal Forest will continue to see Woodhorn museum transformed through a series of magical and thought-provoking art installations in the museum and colliery heritage buildings. Neon lungs glow in the heart of the colliery ventilation system. A plainsong chant leads to a kaleidoscopic vision of coal; past, present and future. A curious, tree-like figure has taken root in front of the blacksmith's forge. An unearthly stag is disturbed as he grazes in the depths of the mine. Extraordinary and ancient insects creep through the colliery site.
Museums Northumberland are delighted to welcome Sing United to perform songs from 'This Land is Mine: For the People who Worked the Land' at Woodhorn Museum on 16th March 2019.
Sing United's performance will pay tribute to the importance of the history of the British coal industry, and the often highly emotional personal stories of the people connected with it.
Created by Musical Director Mark Deeks, Sing United captures the positive potential of people and music in one unique community singing group. The music of Sing United combines folk with pop and soul. As well as bringing you some of the most moving and compelling songs from popular music history, new and original music is created especially for each show.
Having completed a successful application in 2018, Museums Northumberland are excited to announce they have received a substantial funding grant from the Ellerman Foundation. The Ellerman project will take place over a two-year period and enables Museums Northumberland to explore and develop the forgotten collections yet to be uncovered.
The Ellerman Foundation was set up as a grant making trust in 1971. The foundation's aim is to advance the wellbeing of people, society and the natural world, by focusing on the arts, environment and social action. We believe these areas, both separately and together, can make an important contribution to wellbeing.
The fund has further enabled us to secure a curator for the project: Charlotte Barron will lead on developing each of the collections and bring them to light in new and exciting ways for visitors to engage with.
The project to date has recruited a small team of Ellerman volunteers and work continues to audit the collections at Berwick Museum and Art Gallery and Woodhorn Museum. With support from the wider collections team objects from these collections have been included in our Stories from Northumberland display case which can be viewed at Woodhorn as well as featuring in the online Object in Focus blog.
In October we shared never seen objects from the Berwick Museum and Art Gallery collection with members and in December 2018 we celebrated our first of two preventative conservation days with members at Woodhorn Museum.
Experience the second Museums Northumberland open exhibition 'Into the Woods' at Woodhorn Museum from 16th February-22nd April 2019.
Forming part of our 'Coal Forest' season, 'Into the Woods' is an open art exhibition at Woodhorn Museum exploring the theme of trees, woodlands and forests: past, present and future.
Following the success of Woodhorn Museum's first open art exhibition 'Open: Ocean' in 2018, we are delighted to present 'Into the Woods', which is another fantastic opportunity to view work by talented artists from across the region.
From 26th-29th April 2019 visitors can enjoy musical treats taking place in Morpeth Chantry Bagpipe Museum as part of the Morpeth Northumbrian Gathering, an annual celebration of Northumbrian heritage.
Other activities taking place as part of the Gathering include concerts, competitions, tours, walks and talks, and street performances which include a young people's pageant as part of the Saturday morning Border Cavalcade. The festival is a true gathering of people who come together to enjoy the traditional culture of Northumberland and the wider North East region.
This summer, we are thrilled to be sharing some of Northumberland's most extraordinary hidden stories with you.
Over the past year we have been working closely with prestigious North East based artist Matt Stokes to explore and reveal stories from the collections across our four Northumberland museum sites.
Discover the story of the orchid grown, named and gifted for local footballing legend Jackie Milburn at Woodhorn Museum in Ashington. Listen to the lost rural soundscape of the 18th century borderlands at Berwick Museum and Art Gallery. Explore the theme of poaching and theft, past and present, through the symbolism of raptors at Hexham Old Gaol. Delight in the lighter side of Northumberland's unique instrument, the Northumberland Pipes, at Morpeth Chantry Bagpipe Museum.
Our summer programme will run from May to September 2019.

Tylenol Victim's Daughter Wants Justice
Seven murders never solved; agents raid home of convicted extortionist.
By BRIAN ROSS
February 4, 2009, 10:46 PM
February 4, 2009— -- Michelle Rosen was 8 years-old when she watched her mother die a painful death in 1982 from swallowing a Tylenol capsule laced with cyanide. Today, she says she is relieved the FBI has new leads in the case.
"The idea that someone would preplan this, have all the time to come up with the idea, go through this, and not have an idea what lives they're destroying when they've chosen to sit back and watch it," Rosen now 35 and a mother herself, told ABC News in an exclusive interview. "That to me is the most disgusting thing that anybody could do."
Click here to watch the interview.
The unsolved case has haunted Rosen ever since, as she spent years wondering whether the person who killed her mom could be someone's neighbor or the grocery bagger at the local store. She vividly remembers her mom convulsing after taking the pain medication and then being wheeled out their front door of their home on a gurney.
"It's probably not the sight that anyone wants to think about or remember," she said.
Now, she and her children do not consume over-the-counter and prescription drugs, and the fear has been passed down to another generation.
"Everything seems to be a possible tampering product to me and my child," Rosen said, then adding, "My son is always thinking people like to poison other people."
New Leads in the Case: Tylenol Man
The FBI says it has "new leads" in the 1982 unsolved murders of the seven people who swallowed Tylenol capsules that had been adulterated with cyanide, which have led them back to a man who was in the middle of the case but dismissed as a suspect in the killings. And now sources familiar with the original case are speaking to ABC News.
On Wednesday, officials raided the Cambridge, Mass., home of James Lewis, 62, who spent 12 years in prison for sending $1 million extortion letters to Johnson and Johnson, the makers of Tylenol, as well as a nearby storage facility. Agents left late in the evening with boxes of evidence and a large Apple desktop monitor.
Rosen told ABC News that her relatives have been told by the FBI there is new scientific evidence linking Lewis to the crime, thanks to advanced scientific testing now possible.
"There were a lot of people who believed what was available in terms of evidence pointed towards him," former Johnson and Johnson Senior Executive Wayne Nelson told ABC News. "But that was the extent, it wasn't enough to convict or even prosecute."
Lewis, dubbed the "Tylenol Man," admitted writing the extortion letters at the time but has always denied poisoning the capsules. He has since maintained his innocence on his website and on a local cable access program. He was released from prison in 1995 and moved to Boston.
FBI Agent Explains Why Lewis Wasn't Charged
"He was dismissed as a suspect because it was felt the cyanide, since it eats through the capsule, would have had to have been put in close to the time they were purchased, and the FBI could not put him in Chicago at the time," former FBI Agent Brad Garrett, now an ABC News consultant, said.
Lewis has maintained that he could not have committed the crime because he was in New York at the time. But Nelson told ABC News that, based on an analysis of the stores where the tainted Tylenol was purchased, many close to the case believed that whoever dropped the drugs off had flown into Chicago, rented a car, gone and distributed the pills, and then flown back out of O'Hare airport.
A drug store surveillance photo captured an image of a bearded man who some said resembled Lewis.
The case caused a national panic and led to drastic changes in the way over the counter medicine is sold in this country, introducing "tamper-proof" packaging.
On a website, Lewis has posted an audio message which claims he has been misunderstood. "Many enjoy twisting and contorting what I say into something ominous and dreadful which I do not intend. That, my friends, is the curse of being labeled the Tylenol Man," he said.
In a statement released Wednesday, the FBI said the recent 25th anniversary of the crime prompted "many" new tips in the case.
"All of these tips have been or will be thoroughly investigated in an effort to solve this crime and bring some measure of closure to the families of the victims," the statement read. FBI officials said no arrests are imminent and characterized Wednesday's raid of Lewis' home as part of "an ongoing criminal investigation."
Decades Later, the Tylenol Murders Remain Unsolved
To date no one has been charged in the murders of the seven people who were killed in the Chicago area after swallowing the tampered capsules.
The poisonings all occurred in the Chicago within weeks of each other in the fall of 1982. Investigators at the time believed that the perpetrator had taken Tylenol packages from local supermarkets and drug stores, adulterated the contents, and later returned the Tylenol the store shelves.
Now, the new leads are sparking hope that the case will finally be solved.
"I hope they have new solid evidence because the person that did this should really be penalized," said Nelson. "He took a number of lives and, to date, has gotten away with it."

BTFTLIAW – Chapter 1439
Chapter 1439 – Yan Dong
Naturally, Zhao Hai was aware of the events in the Octopus Islands. However, he doesn't have any time to care about it right now. This was because Kong Miao was looking for him in order to meet a person, someone from the Giant Spirit Realm.
It has already been several hours since the attack by the Hundred Spirits Realm was passed over to the Giant Spirit Realm. A Giant Spirit Realm base wasn't far from this area, so it only took a few hours for a response to be made. Kong Miao received word from the higher-ups that the Giant Spirit Realm wants the transmission formation opened so that they could send someone over.
The higher-ups had Kong Miao arrange the reception of the Giant Spirit Realm. This furthermore showed how much importance Kong Miao had in their minds. Kong Miao understood what the higher-ups wanted but he wasn't experienced in these types of things. Then he remembered Zhao Hai. With how Zhao Hai dealt with the Xu Race, he should know about these kinds of things. Because of this, he had Zhao Hai receive the people from the Giant Spirit Realm alongside him.
Naturally, Zhao Hai agreed. He also wanted to take a look at the Giant Spirit Realm. Zhao Hai already experienced the strength of the Hundred Treasures Realm. Therefore, he was curious about the Hundred Treasures Realm's enemy.
As Zhao Hai headed out, Mo Sheng followed behind him. In any case, Mo Sheng wouldn't carelessly speak, so Zhao Hai didn't mind and allowed him to follow. The three went out of the cave residence and then flew towards the place where the transmission formations were.
Before long, the three arrived at the cave. A lot of people were already inside. The majority of them were Severed Soul Experts of the World of Cultivation. There are also experts from the Xu Race. Altogether, they numbered close to 40 people.
Zhao Hai stared, this was because he knew that all of these Severed Soul Experts were essentially the bulk of the strength of the two realms here in the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield. All of them were here to greet the Giant Spirit Realm.
Zhao Hai didn't really think that the World of Cultivation and the Xu Race would attach great importance to the arrival of the Giant Spirit Realm. So many Severed Soul Experts were here to receive them.
When these Severed Soul Experts saw Kong Miao, they immediately greeted him. Then when they noticed Zhao Hai's group, they couldn't help but become confused. These Severed Soul Experts naturally knew Zhao Hai, but they didn't think that Kong Miao would bring him this time. Among the Severed Soul Experts present, only Zhao Hai and the others were at the Nascent Soul Stage, this made them look like chickens among cranes.
Zhao Hai didn't say anything and just smiled faintly and gave the Severed Soul Experts a salute. There were also a large number of Severed Soul Experts who returned the salute. Most of them were from the Xu Race while there were also a few from the World of Cultivation.
These people didn't dare ignore Zhao Hai due to the fact that they were able to witness his strength. Zhao Hai showed abilities that Severed Soul Experts don't have, so he earned the respect of these experts.
On the other hand, those who didn't participate in the battle were somewhat confused. They don't understand how Zhao Hai was able to gain the respect of all these experts.
Zhao Hai didn't care about these. After giving a salute to these experts, he silently stood behind Kong Miao while Mo Sheng stood further behind. Mo Sheng seems like he didn't notice that there were other people present.
Not long after Kong Miao arrived, the large transmission formation in front of them lit up. Then the figures of people began to appear.
These people weren't wearing robes but instead plate amor. They had iron headbands as well as iron gauntlets. They towered over two meters in height and each one had muscles that looked like cast iron.
These people looked very similar to Mo Sheng. One could see at first glance that they were outstanding body cultivators. There were 50 people altogether led by a Severed Soul Expert.
The Severed Soul Expert looked like Zhang Fei with his iron coronet. His face is as rigid as the bottom of a pot. He had a rich beard and his eyes were like copper bells.[1]
At this moment, Kong Miao stepped forward as he gave a bow and said, "Kong Miao has seen the great people from the Giant Spirit Realm. Seniors, welcome." As soon as they heard Kong Miao, everyone else followed, "Seniors, welcome."
Contrary to what Zhao Hai imagined, the people from the Giant Spirit Realm weren't arrogant. Their leader immediately returned the greeting and said, "Grandmaster Kong Miao is too polite. I've heard of your name before. I am Giant Spirit Realm's Yan Dong. I have seen everyone." Although his speech was very polite, his voice boomed inside the ears of everyone present.
He didn't intentionally enhance his voice nor shouted, his voice was just this loud. After both sides exchanged greetings, Yan Dong's group got out of the transmission formation. Then Kong Miao arranged them places to rest in. At the same time, Kong Miao took Yan Dong to the stronghold's great hall.
This hall was a place to receive honored guests. However, Zhao Hai and Mo Sheng also followed behind. Yan Dong was also paying attention to Zhao Hai. It's possible that he recognized him so he was sizing Zhao Hai up.
Before long, the group arrived at the great hall. In addition to Kong Miao, there was also Xu Ning and Jianyi as well as other Severed Soul Experts. Among these people were experts from the Devil Realm, Spirit Realm, Elven Realm, and Demon Realm. If Zhao Hai was included as someone from the Machine Field, then all realms in the World of Cultivation were present. Besides the World of Cultivation, Xu Wuzun was also present as the representative of the Xu Race.
Everyone took a seat. Zhao Hai sat on the last seat while Mo Sheng stood behind him. Yan Dong couldn't help but take a look at Mo Sheng. Mo Sheng's body was able to attract his attention, giving him a good impression of Mo Sheng.
After the group sat down, Kong Miao turned to Yan Dong and said, "Senior, you should already have a general understanding of the situation. Do you have any questions?"
Kong Miao went straight to the point, which was to Yan Dong's liking. Yan Dong smiled and said, "I have a gist of the matter, but I need further details."
Kong Miao turned to Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai bowed towards Yan Dong and said, "Senior, this Zhao Hai will be impolite." Then after he said that, Zhao Hai waves his hand as he took out an Undead with black clothing. This Undead was naturally from the Hundred Treasures Realm.
After taking out the Undead, Zhao Hai commanded, "Introduce yourself and your plan." The Undead complied and immediately introduced itself as well as elaborating on the Hundred Treasures Realm's plan.
The Undead that Zhao Hai released wasn't an ordinary soldier but instead the leader of the group. Because of its rank, it was aware of the Hundred Treasures Realm's plans. Although he wasn't aware of the specific detail, he could still give a general idea of the plan.
Once the Undead finished talking, Yan Dong's expression sank. Anger could be seen in his eyes. He didn't expect the Hundred Treasures Realm to make a move at this time. Just as the Hundred Treasures Realm expected, the Giant Spirit Realm was experiencing problems with their manpower. They had a shortage of strong experts from the younger generation. Although it wasn't a huge problem at this time, it would surely affect their strength in the future.
The Hundred Treasures Realm wanted to kick them while they were having problems, so how could Yan Dong not be angry? When the Undead finished talking, Yan Dong asked further questions and then stopped. Then Zhao Hai received the Undead.
Yan Dong looked at Zhao Hai and then smiled as he said, "You're Zhao Hai? I heard that you're very good at controlling large artifacts. Good, a realm man should use large artifacts unlike those fellows from the Hundred Treasures Realm. Every one of them use embroidery needles like their grandmothers. They're annoying to look at."
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and replied, "This Zhao Hai is honored that the Senior knows my name."
Yan Dong laughed and said, "Your name isn't common here in the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield. People who use large artifacts are also rare. You actually made a name for yourself by using large artifacts, that isn't easy to do."
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "I am just taking advantage of large artifacts. It's nothing to be proud of."
Yan Dong waved his hand and no longer continued to batner. He turned to Kong Miao and said, "Grandmaster Kong Miao, this discovery is very important to the Giant Spirit Realm. Let this Yan Dong offer you our thanks."
Kong Miao smiled and immediately said, "Senior is too polite. The World of Cultivation relies on the Giant Spirit Realm for protection. It's natural for us to report this matter after finding out about it."
Yan Dong nodded and said, "This is something that I need to report back personally. I cannot delay here. Grandmaster Kong Miao, I'll have to ask to be excused."
Kong Miao smiled and said, "No problem, it's as it should be. However, I'll have to ask Senior for help. The World of Cultivation and the Xu Race offended the Hundred Treasures Realm, and now there are 3000 people sent after us. They're currently on the Octopus Islands. I'm afraid it wouldn't be long before they attack us. We can't defend with just our strength, so I hope that Senior could help us ask for reinforcements from the Giant Spirit Realm."
Upon hearing Kong Miao, Yan Dong couldn't help but stare. He looked at Kong Miao and asked, "Where did you obtain this information? Are they really at Octopus Islands?"
Kong Miao nodded and said, "It's true. We just came back from the Octopus Islands. And not long after we left, the people from the Hundred Treasures Realm arrived. I don't know when they'll come here, but I'm afraid it won't be long until they arrive here."
Without waiting for Yan Dong to reply, Zhao Hai stood up and bowed towards Kong Miao before saying, "Grandmaster, I have something to say."
Kong Miao stared, but he immediately said, "Little Hai? Did you discover something? Are the people from the Hundred Treasures Realm here?"
Zhang Fei was a military general under Liu Bei, brother of Guan Yu.

Founders opens expanded tap room, beer garden
GRAND RAPIDS — A new Founders taproom has opened its doors today following a 12-day closing for renovations.
Featuring 40 percent more floor space, it would be difficult to pinpoint one highlight of the latest expansion for the 30th largest craft brewery in the U.S.
"This will allow us to give a better customer experience," said Dave Engbers, Co-Founder and Vice President of Brand & Education. "Ultimately our goal in this expansion was to serve our customers better."
One highlight is an entirely new section on the north side of the taproom featuring the original bar from Founders' first home in the Brassworks Building on the city's Northwest Side. The area resembles the original taproom location — tap handles and all.
"That's a piece of our history," Engbers said. "The day I came and saw it, it literally brought tears to my eyes."
Outside, a massive beer garden stretches across the entire front of the taproom. This adds a third location where patrons can get a freshly poured draft brew, taking the pressure off one centrally located bar.
The beer garden is built for accommodations to last through three seasons: gas heat — both built in and with room for freestanding heaters — as well as two built-in fire pits. The concept is one that could only be dreamed by Mitten-natives.
"Mike (Stevens) and I are both born and raised here in Michigan," Engbers said. "We enjoy having a beer outside."
Founders also expanded its kitchen by 30 percent, adding new menu items which will be prepared from scratch, in-house going forward.
The expansion came on the heels of a production facility expansion, expanding its footprint to brew up to 320,000 barrels annually. The brewery produced 71,000 barrels last year and expects to brew about 125,000 barrels this year. According to Engbers, the latest renovations came with the mindset that Founders is a destination for many beer enthusiasts.
"When people from all over come here we want to give them a great experience," he said. "I think we have done a pretty damn good job."
Later this fall, Founders plans to finish its education and event rental space. The taproom, 235 Grandville Ave. NW in Grand Rapids, is open 11 a.m. to 2 a.m. Monday through Saturday and noon to midnight on Sunday.

The Department of Wildlife usually plants the river with 70,000 trout. This year it's putting in half that number. That's because Truckee River levels are expected to drop. Chris Healy of the Nevada Department of Wildlife says that will make the fish more vulnerable to predators.
"Everybody is trying to eat you out in nature and the fish are not spared from that challenge," Healy says.
So, the fish are going in now, making this the earliest plant in 20 years. But it's not ideal because the river is muddy.
Healy says the drought has many effects on wildlife and people. It has brought bears into urban areas, leading communities to enact new bear-proof-container ordinances. The Department may also increase the number of hunting licenses for many species to prevent animals from starving because they can't find enough food.
"And you could see fish die and remember each one of those fish represents a one-dollar bill," Healy says.
That's what it costs for the Department to raise the fish. The other 35,000 fish that would normally be planted in the Truckee will instead go to Lake Tahoe and other streams in the Sierra.

Ernst Priesner (* 12. Mai 1934 in Wien; seit 19. Juli 1994 bei Garmisch-Partenkirchen verschollen) war ein österreichischer Biologe. Er forschte auf dem Gebiet der Sexualpheromone am Max-Planck-Institut für Verhaltensphysiologie in Seewiesen. Seine entomologischen Schwerpunkte lagen auf dem Gebiet der Erforschung der Hautflügler und Schmetterlinge.

Leben

Ernst Priesner besuchte das Gymnasium in Klagenfurt. Danach studierte er Biologie an der Universität Wien, wo er in der Arbeitsgruppe von Wilhelm Kühnelt am Zoologischen Institut seine Dissertation anfertigte und 1959 promoviert wurde.

Nach seinem Studium arbeitete Priesner zunächst am forstzoologischen Institut der Universität Göttingen, bevor er 1963 zur Arbeitsgruppe von Dietrich Schneider an die Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München wechselte. Zwei Jahre später folgte er Schneider nach Seewiesen an das dortige Max-Planck-Institut. Im Jahr 1974 habilitierte sich Ernst Priesner an der Universität Erlangen, wo er sich auf die Untersuchung von Insektenpheromonen, besonders von Glasflüglern, spezialisierte. Priesner wurde im Jahr 1983 für seine Arbeiten auf dem Gebiet der Pheromonforschung mit dem Gay-Lussac-Humboldt-Preis ausgezeichnet. Er war die treibende Kraft bei der Erforschung der Glasflügler durch Anlockung mittels synthetisch hergestellter Pheromone, wodurch viele neue Arten entdeckt wurden. Priesner entwickelte dazu einen Pheromonsatz von 21 Pheromonen, mit dem das Anlocken fast aller Arten von Glasflüglern gelingt.

Ernst Priesner gilt seit Juli 1994, als er von der Kontrolle von Lockstofffallen in den Bergen bei Garmisch-Partenkirchen im Gebiet des Pflegersees nicht zurückkehrte, als vermisst. Verschiedene Suchaktionen durch die Bergrettung verliefen ohne Erfolg.

Dan Kincaide, the WBA's rolling stone
When a player joins the WBA, he knows he can be traded in any moment. It is a business, owners don't have a heart inside their chests and players are traded as goods, we all know that. Some players have played for a lot of franchises, usually in a bench role that allows them to sign short contracts and choose their destination. That's the story for most of the journeymen in the league. But when you are a heralded star player, you are expected to stay in a team for most of your career if not all of it. GMs don't like trading superstars for a reason, they are hard to find, even harder to trade for them, but at times some desperate GM ends overpaying for them.
That's not the case for Dan Kincaide. Still 29 years old, Dan Kincaide has already lived in Arkansas, Los Angeles, New York, Albacete, New York again, Brooklyn, Forth Worth, Albacete again and Sacramento. You can count eight times packing his luggage to play basketball.
MOVE 1. Arkansas Stingers draft Dan Kincaide in 2012 draft.
Well, nobody wants to call Arkansas home, right? But the life of a rookie is not in his hands, so you only can expect not being too miserable playing there. But he only played 9 minutes per game in his rookie season, so it was a really frustrating time. On the top of that Arkansas only won 26 games that season, making it harder to understand how a number 2 pick played such a low amount of time. The second season, the team did not play much better, but at least Kincaide was starting and playing a lot of minutes more. At the end of the 2013 season, Dan Kincaide received the best news an Arkansas pro player can hear…the team was moving to Los Angeles
MOVE 2. Arkansas Stingers become Los Angeles Gargoyles in summer of 2014
A fresh new start in a place where every young star would kill to live in. But the Gargoyles won just 26 games and you know its Los Angeles and you need a marketable star. And the New York Liberty knocked the door with Wayne Taylor. How can a team losing money and stablishing reject the services of Taylor? Of course, the Gargoyles didn't. And you can't say Dan Kincaide wasn't happy about this move, he needed to start winning some games.
MOVE 3. Los Angeles Gargoyles trade Dan Kincaide to New York Liberty for Wayne Taylor and filler. (7/24/2015)
For the first time, Dan Kincaide is in a winning environment, and it pays off. He averages 18 and 6, the Liberty win 57 games and reach the Conference Finals to fall 4-1 against the Rage. For the always combative NYC media, Kincaide just doesn't have what it takes to play a leading role in a contender, and Daron Lyons was the true leader of the team. In a press conference, Dan Kincaide calls a reporter out, and he asks to lead his own team. NY ownership start to look a new home for him
MOVE 4. The New York Liberty trade Dan Kincaide to the Albacete Burning Hell for William Curry, rights of pick number 2 and a future first round pick.
You have a disgruntled player asking for a new team, a team with just 10 wins the previous seasons with a lot of lottery picks and trying to win as soon as possible. And you have another team wanting a star player out, but sending a message about who is in the driving seat. Albacete, selecting top talent in Lonnie Jordan wanted someone to play a mentor role for him. That way, the learning process for Jordan would benefit (it really did). Kincaide delivered, averaging 22 points and 6 assists and being a really good teacher. Albacete won 40 games to be back in the playoffs. But Jordan was ready to start at the end of the season, so, Kincaide's future with the team was not really sure.
MOVE 5. Albacete Burning Hell trade Dan Kincaide to the New York Liberty for Lazaro Hendricks, Ray Tango, Curtis Starman and Wu Dian Fan as a part of a 4-team trade (12/18/2017)
Albacete took his time to accommodate Kincaide until they could land the player they coveted in Lazaro Hendricks. Things weren't going really well in New York and they needed a major overhaul. Daron Lyons was out of the team in that same trade, so Dan Kincaide could take his revenge. He led the team in scoring with 23.3 points per game and New York won 57 games, but they were upset in the first round of playoffs by the Wild. That was not going to end well.
MOVE 6. New York Firestorm trade Dan Kincaide to the Brooklyn Rage for Nicholas Evans, Chad Archer and Walter Walter (yes, his value had dropped a bit) 12/17/2018
The experiment hadn't gone as expected, so Brooklyn came knocking Firestorm's door. they offered 3 players, none of them a star, and NY's GM, tired of Kincaide not meeting the expectations accepted the offer. In Brooklyn, Kincaide didn't need to lead, not even be a second option. That is what happens when you have Jarius Miles and Mario Bailey in your team. Brooklyn win an astonishing number of games, 74, with Kincaide averaging 19 points in a very efficient way. In the playoffs, the Rage make a perfect 16-0 to win another championship. But the marriage can't take for so long. Kincaide, Miles and Bailey end their contracts at the same time. Probably one of them should be traded and you can wonder who.
MOVE 7. Brooklyn Rage trade Dan Kincaid to the Forth Worth Sun Warriors for Trenton Adams and filler (7/23/2019)
Entering the last season of Miles, Bailey and Kincaide's contracts and with Omar Jefferson´s massive salary out of the books, Rage's GM starts to rebuild while they still contend. Trading Dan Kincaid for the great prospect Trenton Adams. For the Warriors, it is the opportunity to start winning games. Being one of the worst franchises in the last years was history. In three moves, the Warriors make a competitive team, stealing Darryl Whittaker in the free agency, getting Kincaide and trading for Trevor Tomlin. In 26 games, Kincaide averages 19 and 6, but declares that he wants to test free agency. Warriors management enters in panic mode and then an offer comes
MOVE 8. Fort worth Warriors trade Dan Kincaide to the Albacete Burning Hell for Claude Weidner and Polikarp Dragunas (12/20/2019)
That's a good offer for a player you are going to lose. Weidner is not the same player that Kincaide but his younger and signed long term. Kincaide gives Albacete a winning now swagger under the lead of Jonnie Jordan. Albacete win 62 games, with Kincaide averaging 21 points and yes, 6 rebounds. He is 29 years old, and ready to get his big contract, but Albacete want to go young, there is an agreement to explore a sign and trade.
MOVE 9. Albacete Burning Hell sign and trade Dan Kincaide to the California Fighting Cocks for Sam White, Kelley Brandon, Victorino Pinelo (7/20/2020)
Albacete has his young team, and California becomes the favourite to dethrone Brooklyn…how much time before Kincaide is on the move again?

Volleyball Sweeps NESCAC Opponents on Difficult Maine Swing
By Connor Haugh '21 || Issue 149-4
The volleyball team came away from their Maine road trip this weekend with an unblemished NESCAC record, despite two difficult matches against Colby and Bates.
The weekend kicked off Friday night in Lewiston, where the Firedogs battled Bates. Bates and Amherst were both undefeated six games into the season, and the Mammoths had only dropped a single set all season in an earlier win over Emerson College.
Bates, from the opening serve, however, challenged the Firedogs. Although the Mammoths won the first set 25-21, Amherst then rallied from a 10-0 deficit in the second set to win 25-21. Bates took the third set after Amherst struggled to put together back-to-back points, leaving the Bobcats in a do-or-die fourth set to protect their perfect record. Bates came out of the gate quickly, making a seven-point run early in the set and preserving their lead to force overtime.
The Firedogs, despite smooth sailing so far this season, were prepared for the fifth set. Amherst took seven of the first nine points of the set, and the Firedogs ended victorious on a kill by Emily Kolsky '20 set by Charlotte Duran '20.
The Firedogs then had a quick turnaround, as they traveled 50 miles down east to Waterville the next morning to face Colby and Endicott in a tri-match.
Amherst made light work of Colby, which only finished within 10 points of Amherst in the first set when they lost 25-17. Sophie Launsbach '22 and Jamie Dailey '21 both had 13 kills each and Duran had 34 assists.
Amherst's match against Endicott, however, proved to be more difficult. Heading into the matchup, the Gulls were ranked No. 6 in the New England Women's Volleyball Association Regional Poll to Amherst's ninth.
The Firedogs won the first set 25-22 after Cameron Hendricks '20 killed the ball for the final point. In the second set, Amherst continued to dominate, and it appeared that the higher-ranked Gulls were folding under the might of the Firedogs, as numerous Endicott handling errors led to a 25-10 scoreline in favor of Amherst. Amherst, now in a sizeable lead, had to take just one of the following three sets, but the Gulls showed great tenacity and took the match, handing Amherst its first loss of the season.
As Amherst looks to battle toward its second NESCAC Final — in just as many years after a 10-year drought — it will need to prepare a strong resume in conference play. Playing Endicott, however, certainly may prove a valuable experience for head coach Sue Everden's squad as they move forward and learn to respond to difficult opponents. Amherst's next matchup is against NESCAC heavyweights Middlebury on Friday, Sept. 25 in LeFrak Gym at 7 p.m.
Correction: The Student erroneously reported the order of results in Amherst's match against Bates. The Firedogs won the first, second and fifth sets against Bates.

As the sun began its descent towards the horizon, two beautiful brides arrived to Ironwoods Beach for the moment they had been waiting for. Excited nerves kept dancing through them as we prepared for the big moment but, as soon as Erika and Tiffany looked in one another's eyes, that was all they needed. Hearing them read their vows, it was like the rest of the world melted away. What nerves? They were two glowing, gorgeous women that couldn't have been anymore excited to become spouses for the rest of their lives. After more than seven years together, their loved ones looking on were just as excited for them. Especially their adorable niece that has no shortage of love in her life. This lovely ladies were all so much fun as they laughed, splashed, and played along the golden shore. After allowing us the chance to capture some epic romantic shots, it was off to an amazing dinner at Lahaina Grill. A superb way to celebrate their incredible Maui Beach Wedding. Ladies, we are so thankful you allowed us to be a part of your special day. What an honor it was to meet you both. Erika and Tiffany, we wish you both all the love in the world as you start the next step in your journey together. Congratulations and Warm Aloha!!!
Check out the Maui Wedding of Melissa & Michael!

Hi, can anyone help me to minimize or eliminate user locking? There's a way or permanent solution to this topic? How?
welcome to the SDN Forums. Could you describe your problem a little bit more in detail? Did your Users get locked because they enter a wrong password? Did they lock master & transactional data?
Thanks for your response. By the way our company is a retailer company and we have a warehouse where we using RF scanner for the inventory. Some user starting to lock their code when all users confirming to the system that they transaction was done already. They know that their code was locked coz the transaction they process was already stopped running or already hang-up. And the permanent solution that we provide for them is to unlock their code using TCODE: ZRFKILL at SAP. There other way or permanent solution to eliminate their problem?
I agree with Gregor that you should detail your problem, but anyway some information in advance.
For sure you can minimize or eliminate user locking (e.g. by adjusting the parameter login/fails_to_user_lock) but you should also think about security policies (at least in your productive systems).
