Trindon Holliday got away with something very, very stupid during the Broncos-Panthers game.
I mean, how he stayed in here, we'll never know.
But Holliday almost sabotaged himself: look at how he enters the end zone.
He starts his celebration too early, flipping the ball away before he even crosses the line.
This should've been a fumble, possession going to Carolina, but the refs spared Holliday.
Denver shellacked Carolina 36-14, so even if they lost this TD they probably still would've won. Regardless, consider this proof that the replacement refs aren't the only ones who get things wrong.
And a reminder: BE CAREFUL HOW YOU CELEBRATE.

Q: How to throw 404 Error in web.xml? If my URL Pattern matches /aaaa/* then i need to throw 404 Error, is there any way to throw it directly in deployment descriptor or do i need to write filter class and thorw it in that servlet filter class?

A: As you might know, 404 is for "Resource Not Found" which is thrown by the Web Container if no resource is found.
I think for you the best way is to filter any request for /aaaa/* and redirect to a meaningful error page.

China has blocked for the fourth time in a row Masood Azhar from being branded terrorist at the UN. With this the euphoria built up in India of being poised for a massive diplomatic victory at the global stage has been reduced to a damp squib. It hurt more because the excitement was whipped up in the run up to general elections with US, UK and France supporting India's motion. China communicated its decision to put the proposal on "technical hold" barely two hours before the proposal would have been voted upon. But for India to expect otherwise would have been naïve.
With reference to China, any fantasy of this type actually amounts to stupidity – similar to the viewpoint that because of economic engagement, China poses no threat to India anymore. China's history apart, studying Chinese President Xi Jinping's profile would lead us to better conclusions; Xi being a ruthless dictator, his ambition of making China a 'Great Power' leaves no scope of morality. Li Jibao, a Chinese student studying in Taiwan's National Tsing Hua University, in a video "I Oppose" live-streamed on March 11, 2019 described the current situation in China even worse than before the 1911 Xianhai Revolution that overthrew the Qing Dynasty in China. Calling Xi "Emperor Ching Feng", Li criticized Xi's last year decision to remove the two-term limit of the presidency and added that with that move, modern politics in China has become extension of the past autocratic empires. In Li's words: China today is like one of those absurd and deplorable worlds British author George Orwell wrote about – in China, it is darker now than before the Xinhai Revolution; people are living in an environment jeopardized by toxic milk powder and fake vaccines; many low end population from rural areas have lost their city jobs and are being forced out of their urban locations; freedom is so rare, even the privileged people have never experienced it, and; Chinese citizens live with no dignity and just drag out an ignoble existence. He hoped Chinese, like the people of Taiwan, would one day be able to enjoy freedom of expression without fear they would be made to disappear. Li Jibao has narrated what Xi Jinping@Emperor Ching Feng has done to China. However, it is Xi's global ambitions that have fuelled his intimacy and love for terrorists like Masood Azhar and other terrorist organizations. It may be recalled that China had similarly also protected Masood Azhar at the UN in 2011, 2016 and 2017. There is no doubt that China is one-to-one with Pakistan and its proxies including Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM).
The idea being mooted by China's state media that China must support Masood Azhar least he attacks the China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) is laughable. China supports and arms the Taliban in Afghanistan and United Wa State Army (USWA) in Myanmar to further her own economic and geopolitical ambitions. The CPEC is China's strategic highway to the Indian Ocean. Based at Gwadar and Jiwani (proposed joint military base), she overlooks the Arabian Sea and eastern end of the Straits of Hormuz. Saudi Arabia's $10 billon investment in an oil refinery in Gwadar is not just Pakistan's wooing, but with certain China's influence. In our case, the so-called 'Wuhan Spirit" has blinkered us completely. Despite netting over $60 billion through India-China trade, and despite its slipping economy, China has the gumption of showing us two fingers. This is because instead of standing on our feet, our sole focus is on votes and elections, aside from the troika of cast, creed and reservations. Why have our intelligence agencies and the politically hyped national security advisors failed to take out critters like Masood Azhar inside Pakistan? Why have we not used Chinese economic gains from India as a bargaining tool? Why don't we put strictures on Huawei and ZTE? A cross-section in India and the media talk a lot about our communist parties allied with China, as well as ISI influence in India. But have we ever examined how many of our politicians, diplomats-bureaucrats, organisations, corporate houses, official, academia are influenced (rather bought over) by China and how? By amending the Foreign Currency Regulations Act in retrospect, enabling anonymous foreign donations, and denying RTI on the issue to public, China would be foolish to not exploit it; it certainly has been doing it, as other countries and foreign intelligence agencies would be doing.
China's basic traits are that of a bully; show meekness and she will mount on your head. Yet, we continue to exhibit our pusillanimity by not even naming China directly for protecting Masood Azhar. But coming back to UN designating Masood Azhar as terrorist, how it would matter at ground level; US had already branded him global terrorist with a price on his head. It is time for India to stand up to China and focus more on the collusive China-Pakistan threat and its manifestations.

Gioconda Parker • Modules 1, 3
Gioconda combines alignment and flow to empower students to grow in their practice, inviting challenge in a nurturing environment. She encourages playfulness and enjoyment while exploring the science and art that is yoga, and believes passionately in yoga's ability to bring unity at an individual, community and global level. Yoga is a doorway to the greatest teacher, the wisdom that lies within and is reflected without. She seeks to study and learn from the natural world, and to inspire students to journey into their own deep wisdom. She has nurtured many students on the path from student to teacher through her trainings, and her Pay It Forward scholarships provide yoga outreach to a wide range of populations, from the homeless to troubled youth.
In 2008, she initiated and co-founded the Austin based community movement "One OM," a seva project designed to unite yoga communities in practice and service. One Om events continue to bring people together locally to love, honor and share the practice. A continual student, Gioconda recently completed her Master's Degree in Spiritual Psychology and is enrolled in ongoing studies in Ayurveda and Somatics. She leads workshops, teacher trainings, personal development programs and retreats across the globe but makes her home in Austin.

Kate Waitzkin • Module 2, 4
Kate is a proud mama of three boys and lives with her husband and kiddos in her hometown of Austin, Texas. After living in New York and San Francisco for 12 years combined, Kate is thrilled to call Austin her home (again) where she teaches yoga, writes and, most importantly, does the mama thing.
Kate's own mom introduced her to yoga almost 18 years ago. After moving to New York City in 2000, she started a regular asana practice to supplement her passion for running and quell the anxieties inherent to a life in Manhattan, but the benefits she experienced were much greater than she ever imagined. Having worked in the fast-paced world of publishing for two years followed by six years in publicity, yoga became a gift of grace in Kate's life serving as a means to quiet the mind and turn inward, which continues to provide new perspectives on her life mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually.
Kate completed 500 hours of teacher training with YogaWorks New York. She is also a certified prenatal yoga teacher. She taught in New York and San Francisco for six years (combined) and was part of the teaching team for YogaWorks' San Francisco teacher training programs. Kate is forever grateful for all of the teachers who have taught, guided and inspired her including Jenny Aurthur, Jeanmarie Paolillo, Nikki Estrada, Erika Trice, Mynx Inatsugu, Elise Miller, Rod Stryker and Tias Little.
Kate teaches with the hope that yoga will touch her student's lives the way it has her own. Her classes focus strongly on connecting the breath with precise alignment and mindful movement while encouraging playful exploration and a lighthearted approach to the practice. Incorporating breath work, personal intention, music, mantras and lessons from the Yoga Sutras into her classes, Kate teaches with the hope that the ideas and inspirations that her students uncover for themselves on the mat may be translated into their everyday lives with balance and ease.
Collette Hill • Module 2, 4
Collette discovered yoga as a compliment to her breath and body work while majoring in acting at Bennington College in Vermont. After working as a teacher for a few years and receiving a Masters in Curriculum and Instructional Leadership, she moved to Austin and decided to take her yoga practice to the next level and became an RYT. Collette strives to practice with intention — both on the mat and off! For her, this means moving with an open mind, a happy heart, and compassion for herself and others. Through teaching, she hopes to inspire a sense of community and to encourage her students to push past self-imposed physical and mental limits.

AOC: 'COVID relief should be drafted with a lens of reparations' for 'Black + Brown communities'
April 6, 2020 Politics
In a Friday morning tweet, freshman Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (N.Y.) wrote that any future relief legislation should be drafted with a view toward providing reparations for minority communities because, she said, the disease has disproportionately affected those communities.
COVID deaths are disproportionately spiking in Black + Brown communities. Why? Because the chronic toll of redlini… https://t.co/SxGO4imQ79

It is, by and large, true that wealthy people tend to live longer and have better health outcomes, as we have repeatedly emphasized here at TheBlaze as a reason that it is vitally important to get the economy moving again — not so that people can have more money, but so they can live longer.
And it is also true that the economic downturn is at least somewhat disproportionately affecting certain minority communities. According to the Bureau of Labor and Statistics, the overall American workforce is 12.3% "Black or African American" and 17.6% "Hispanic or Latino." Meanwhile, the leisure and hospitality industry, which has been hit the hardest by the coronavirus shutdown by far, is 13.1% black and 27.0% Hispanic.
The question remains, however, whether the proper response to the economic damage caused by coronavirus should be directed to people specifically because of their skin color, or because they work in industries that have been devastated by the shutdown. Presumably, workers of all colors in the leisure and hospitality industries will be devastated by the loss of several weeks' pay.
Still, as compared with some of her other coronavirus pronouncements, this one is actually not as bad as it could have been. As BlazeTV host Stu Burguiere has pointed out: almost literally every single word that has come out of her mouth about this crisis has been wrong.

Dang, another amazing couple of weeks spent in the beautiful Rocky Mountains of Colorado.
For the last 7 years I have been making the annual trek from Columbus, OH to Lyons, CO. I just point the car west and stay on Interstate 70 for 1300 miles or so!
I have been playing at the YMCA of the Rockies in Estes Park for about 5 years now. A gig that I look forward to playing every year. I never thought that I would enjoy it so much but I love driving up into the mountains and playing for the folks who come out and listen. It's a very interesting gig that brings out entire families from all over the country. We chat after the show and find all kinds of similarities in our differences.
Then to Song School. Ahhhhhhh… it's a deep breath that I need avery year. A chance to make new friends and catch up with peers and learn from heroes in a setting that is supportive and inspiring. I got the chance to share some insight of my own at an instructor this year. My class was "Making Music Work For You." How to be relevant as an artist full-time or part-time. It was a awesome discussion with folks who are at various levels of playing and their desire to play more. I also did some individual mentoring!
Following the 4 day song school was the 25th anniversary of this formidable festival. Wow. Highlights for me include Mary Gauthier, Kasey Chambers, Sufjan Stevens, Session Americana, Martin Sexton, Shawn Colvin and Mary Chapin Carpenter, Jason Isbell, The Waifs, Richard Thompson, and closing out the weekend was Gillian Welch and David Rawlings. I even had the chance to perform on Sunday during the festival in the The Wildflower Pavilion with one of my favorites - Christopher Smith.
The trek home always gives me time to reflect on this amazing community of music makers that I am lucky enough to be a part of and glad to know that so many of them are my friends. I am GRATEFUL!

Bank of England Executive Director appointments
The Bank of England today announced two new appointments to its Executive Team.
Exchange of letters regarding the appointment of Alex Brazier
The Court of the Bank of England today approved the appointment of Alex Brazier as Executive Director for Financial Stability Strategy and Risk (FSSR), effective from 16 March 2015. Alex joined the Bank in 2001 as an economist, and has held a variety of increasingly senior positions over the course of his career, most recently as Private Secretary to the Governor since November 2011. Alex will report to the Deputy Governor for Financial Stability Jon Cunliffe, and following consultation with the Chancellor, will become a member of the FPC effective from 1 April. His appointment fills the vacancy left by the departure of Spencer Dale in August 2014.
The Court also today approved the appointment of Sam Woods as Executive Director for Insurance Supervision, reporting to Andrew Bailey, the Deputy Governor, Prudential Regulation and CEO of the Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA). His appointment is effective from 7 April 2015. Sam joined the Financial Services Authority (FSA) in 2011 and transferred to the Bank in 2013 with the integration of the PRA. He most recently served as Director for Financial Stability Strategy and Risk, and prior to that was Director for Domestic UK Banks Supervision. Before joining the FSA/Bank, Sam spent ten years at HM Treasury, including a year as Secretary to the Independent Commission on Banking. His appointment fills the vacancy left by the departure of Julian Adams in August 2014.
Both roles were advertised internally and externally, with the assistance of the Bank's executive search firm (Odgers Berndtson). Candidates for each position were interviewed by separate interview panels consisting of Deputy Governors, Court and PRA Board members. Short-listed candidates were then interviewed by the Governor before final selections were submitted to the Bank's Court for approval.
Mark Carney, Governor of the Bank of England, said: "I am delighted to announce the appointments of Alex Brazier and Sam Woods. Each brings unique strengths and varied experience to their respective role. On behalf of the Bank's senior management team, I look forward to working closely with both of them as we continue to transform the Bank and fulfil our mission to promote the good of the people of the United Kingdom by maintaining monetary and financial stability. I would also like to thank Sam for his leadership of FSSR over the past six months and Alex for his wise counsel and extraordinary support as my Private Secretary over the past year and a half."
1. Under Section 9B of the Bank of England Act 1998, as amended by the Financial Services Act 2012, the Governor, after consultation with the Chancellor of the Exchequer, can appoint one member to the Financial Policy Committee of the Bank of England, as the 'person who has executive responsibility within the Bank for analysis of threats to financial stability'.

What is there were no volunteers?
In the 7 months that I have been working here at Foothills, I have come to realize just how important our volunteers are to us. The men and women that give so much of their time are amazing people. They ask for nothing in return except for the joy that it gives them just to help out. What would it be like without them? I thought about that for a moment. Without them… the phone might be answered by a machine instead of a friendly voice. Without them… we might not have a smiling face to greet our friends and visitors at the door. Without them… the staff might have to make their own copies; fold their own flyers; mail their own letters and staple their own packets. The odd jobs like fixing a faucet; painting a Sunday school room, fixing a door handle or replacing a light fixture might have to be hired out. Without them… who would spend 40 hours a week to sort clothes for the rummage sale, or move furniture and cabinets from one end of the campus to another, or wash 100's of cups and saucers so our 4th grade girls could experience a special tea. They're all volunteers!
Since I have been here, I have had the pleasure of meeting and getting to know many of them and am proud to call them my friends. I have always said, "This is such a fun place to work, and I am so blessed to be here!" And I truly believe it has to do with the people that you are surrounded by. So, to all our volunteers, thank you for all you do. We would not be Foothills without the Folks! And most of all, thanks for making me laugh!


Woobies Winter is a match game in which some flurry little balls are in a big danger. They got trapped and are in danger of being smashed by the ambos. You are the only one who can save them, so you would better hurry up. In order to save and release the woobies, you have to match them in groups of three of the same color next to each other. Sometimes you will get a special woobie, a black one. The black woobie is actually a bomb and will explode all the attached woobies. Just aim and launch a woobie, you can even launch them in the right or left wood piece in order to bring them to their destination. Try to make combos to get a higher score.


A port expansion was planned off the coast of San Felipe, Panama. GeoView was tasked to provide bathymetric information within the survey area, map the top of rock and evaluate the thickness of the overlying marine sediments. The survey area was approximately 300 hectares in size. GeoView collected sub-bottom profiling and bathymetry data along transect lines spaced approximately 25 meters on center. The sub-bottom data was collected using an Edgetech 3200 system with a 216 towfish for the sub bottom portion. The Edgetech system is a full Spectrum CHIRP imaging system. A frequency range of 2-16 kHz was used.
During the survey, the towfish was positioned 1 meter below the surface of the water. The high-power, low-frequency system was able to penetrate deep in to the marine sediment and map the top of rock to depths of 20 meters. The bathymetry data was collected using an ODEM Echotrac CVM. The Echotrach system uses a high frequency (200 Kilohertz (kHz)) transducer which was towed at a depth of 0.5 meters below the surface of the water. The high frequency and rapid pulse rate enabled accurate mapping of the seafloor. The data was processed using Hypack© and SonarWiz.Map©. Contour maps of the elevation of the seafloor, the thickness of the marine sediement, and elevation of the top of rock were produced.

When The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee appeared on Broadway in April of 2005, it was quickly nominated for six Tony awards. It won two, including Best Book. A slightly quirky, offbeat look at the lives of precocious spelling bee contestants as seen during a county competition, this is not your traditional musical. Its writers and script are highly encouraging of improvisation, and the play itself is audience-interactive, character-driven, and slightly irreverent.
When the opportunity to review the show presented itself, I was immediately intrigued. Besides my obvious interest due to a love of the theater (and musicals especially), this particular play was appealing because of the memories it evoked from my distant past. Because the truth is... I am a spelling N-E-R-D. If you were to rifle thoroughly enough through my closet, you would unearth a file box containing a number of medals inscribed with the names of county and regional bees. You might even find a state plaque and a trophy or two. And, were you to inspect the contents of my unabridged Merriam-Webster dictionary with the curiously well-worn cover, you might discover a system of personal codes—a series of dots and crosses next to individual words. Though I have succeeded in suppressing the more obvious and annoying aspects of my fixation (I no longer correct people unless they request it, much to the relief of all who knew me as a child), I still sometimes mentally shudder when I see a particularly creative butchering of a commonly misspelled word. This is not because I think that those who misspell words are stupid; rather, it's because there is little more beautiful than the written word and, in my mind, the intricacies of letter placement are part of that beauty. A misspelled word is, quite simply, ugly. So imagine my glee at spending an entire evening surrounded by people who share my obsession!
"Now, now," you'll say. "Those were characters, not real people. You're still a bit strange." My response: "I can pretend if I want to. SO THERE." But the beauty of Runway Theatre's production of The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee is that it is not too difficult to pretend.
Runway presents the play in its black box theater, which provides the perfect level of intimacy between the actors and its audience, allowing humor to accurately hit its mark. The set is simple, yet skillfully recreates a school gymnasium, complete with bleachers bearing school colors and posters championing the mascot—the porcupine. For the bee itself, walls have been festooned with pennant streamers, and a judge's table has been set up next to the gym entrance. One particularly interesting piece is the rotating platform that allows the bleachers to transform into an Indian ashram during one of the final numbers. For the remainder of the play, all of the action takes place within the gymnasium, which allows the talents of the cast to take focus.
Vahn Phollurxa plays Chip Tolentino, the incumbent spelling champion. Phollurxa brings a certain level of sensitivity to his character; one particularly noteworthy example of this is the manner in which his face falls and shoulders slump when another child remarks that he is not memorable. Phollurxa is also able to evoke a good laugh from the audience during a particularly unfortunate moment in his spelling bee career (I won't say more to avoid spoilers), and his stuttering and awkward mannerisms accentuate his discomfort and dismay. His singing is melodic and sincere, and he is never quite as endearing as when expressing disgruntled consternation about his intermission activities.
Chelsea Monty's version of Logainne Schwartzandgrubenierre, the highly-strung textbook stage child, elicits sympathy from the audience. Monty's subtly pained expression and tense posture hint at her character's inner conflict. Additionally, her preening mannerisms and the way in which she inclines her head expectantly wonderfully express her high level of anxiety. Monty also impressively maintains a fabricated speech impediment throughout the show, which is a feat in itself.
Cole Cloutier is Leaf Coneybear, the sensitive and insecure dreamer of the spellers, and he will steal your heart. His ad-libbed moments are some of the funniest bits in the show, and his portrayal of Coneybear is refreshingly innocent. Moments that stand out include the enamored tousling of his beloved curly hair and his fascination with observing audience members through the hole in his number placard. Cloutier never breaks character, continuously performing one original action after the next while the bee progresses around him. The result is a treat to watch and creates one of the most endearing characters I've encountered in a long time. His vocal performance is also strong.
Jason Solis's performance as William Barfee, the obnoxious loner, is solid. It's easy to play Barfee as overly obnoxious or to make his sinus issues too off-putting, but Solis does a good job of balancing Barfee's overt confidence with a subtle display of insecurity, creating a sympathetic character and eliciting many laughs. Additionally, Solis displays great agility during his dance scenes and his vocal endurance is admirable, making "Magic Foot" a highly memorable number.
Faith Lawrence is Marcy Park, the overachieving private school girl who is "all business." With her stiff-backed posture and lack of facial expression, Lawrence's Marcy is intimidating and robotic. While this creates a strong character for the majority of her performance, it is troubling that there is little discernible emotion when her character changes course. Despite this slight hiccup, Lawrence's impressive gymnastic skills make for a very convincing rendition of her solo number, "I Speak Six Languages," and her vocal stamina is superb.
Robin Clayton plays Olive Ostrovsky, the shy newcomer. Clayton expertly expresses Olive's uncertainty through numerous mannerisms, including a shuffling gait, constant nervous rearrangement of her pigtails, and a hunched posture that suggests she wants to be swallowed up by her overalls. For all this, Clayton's version of Olive has an indomitable will that is often expressed through her stubborn independence. One particularly noteworthy example of this is when she refuses to submit to the moderator's adjustment of her pigtails. Clayton's performance of choreography is also strong, and a moment in which she and Barfee waltz is especially amusing. And despite her character's timidity, Clayton can certainly hold her own when she opens her mouth—her vocal tone is rich and striking with her lower registers being particularly strong. Even so, her solo number, "The 'I Love You' Song" is one of the most memorable songs in the show, not just because of the beauty of the music and the strong singing, but because her balled fists and intensity so movingly express the difficulty with which she is holding herself together.
Elizabeth McWhorter is Rona Lisa Perretti, the bee's moderator. McWhorter has a lovely voice and blends beautifully with other cast members in the show. Her gentle mannerisms and placid expressions diminish her character's intensity, but emphasize Perretti's sweet nature. The various "Rona Moment" numbers are convincing and heart-warming, and her "everywoman" performance gives the audience members someone to relate to amid the idiosyncratic behaviors of the other characters.
Vince Connor is Vice Principal Douglas Panch, the slightly sinister foil to Rona Lisa Perretti. Connor's blustery delivery and dejected stance emphasize the character's seething nature and provide a good contrast to Rona Lisa's sweetness.
Caleb Cothren plays Mitch Mahoney, the bee's ex-con "bouncer." Cothren's version of Mitch is less stoic than other performances I have seen, and while this detracts from the early mystery surrounding his character, it adds to the impression of his kindness. Portions of Cothren's performance, particularly when he is escorting contestants off stage, seem a bit rushed, but overall he gives a substantial performance.
Chris Pettit and Drake Leach as Dan Schwartz and Carl Grubenierre, Logan's overbearing stage fathers, have great energy and are memorable despite the size of their roles. A moment involving Pettit and a can of hairspray stands out as particularly funny.
Noelle Salter as Olive's mom proves to have a clear and powerful voice during "The 'I Love You' Song." Unfortunately, the gusto with which the song begins somewhat detracts from the build to a powerful end. Still, the combination is striking, and Salter certainly adds considerably to the performance. Greg Kozakis is Olive's Dad, and the lovely timbre of his voice provides a good counterpoint to Salter's rich soprano.
Erych Walter plays Jesus, and his performance, though small, is humorous and well-timed.
An additional smattering of honorary cast members are audience members turned spellers, and their inclusion both increases audience investment and offers cast members considerable opportunity to ad-lib. This is a brilliant piece of the show, but must be handled carefully. Unfortunately, the night I attended, one audience participant who seemed to be a would-be actor had memorized the entire show thereby ruining the joke and distracting from the brilliance of the main cast.
Costume Designer Jessica Cothren follows the lead of the original Broadway production with certain characters, while adding novel touches to others. While Olive, Marcy, and Chip are clad in expected styles, William is a bit less polished without his customary necktie, and Logan is a bit more youthful and groomed in her floral dress. Of particular brilliance is Cothren's treatment of Leaf Coneybear, who is a bit more of a free spirit in this production than in others. His personality is expertly captured in his socks and sweater, which appear as though he may have just finished them moments before arriving at the bee.
Lighting Designer Scott W. Davis uses lighting not only to highlight actors as they perform individual numbers, but also to add visual complexity. Blue gels are used to evoke the emptiness of the gym prior to the start of the show, and, as the contestants begin to arrive, they change to warm amber. Spots are used effectively to indicate moments where characters are stepping outside of the main plot to speak to the audience. The lighting in "The 'I Love You' Song" is of particular interest and makes the dreamy quality of Olive's internal world shine. Side lighting causes the face of Olive's father to be partially cloaked in shadow, while a hazy purple glow illuminates and emphasizes the ephemeral nature of Olive's mother. In this scene, lighting greatly adds to the emotional component, though it was momentarily distracting when a cue was dropped and then remembered halfway through the song.
Musical direction is outstanding, and the cast and live musicians prove their skill by performing many complicated songs without a clear line of sight due to the hidden placement of the band. Sound design is expert enough to render itself virtually invisible, and the technical prowess of the crew means that there are no interruptions in the audience's enjoyment. Choreography is detailed, but seems effortless and showcases each performer. A combination of inspired lighting and choreography during "Pandemonium" and a time lapse near the middle of the show add amusement and great visual interest.
Strong technical teams combined with cast members who can make the most enigmatic and eccentric of characters lovable make Runway Theatre's production of The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee a fun and thought-provoking experience. After hearing the long menu of words contestants must spell all night, you may also find yourself quite humbled. Or perhaps strangely buoyed up and nostalgic. Regardless, don't miss this one, or you'll be disqualified.

Water crisis exhausts people of al-Hasakeh governorate
A displaced Syrian child carrying water to her camp in the city of al-Hasakeh, northern Syria - 24 August 2020 (France Press)
صراع المياه يرهق الحسكة.. الطرفان يتنصلان
Enab Baladi – Saleh Malas
The water crisis in al-Hasakeh governorate has temporarily stabilized, after the Kurdish-led Autonomous Administration in northeast Syria allowed, on 22 August, the restoration of power to the city of Ras al-Ain in the northern countryside of al-Hasakeh, which has the main supply of water in the governorate which is controlled by the Turkish-backed opposition forces.
Social media platforms have seen numerous campaigns, carrying accusations against Turkey, in an attempt to exert pressure to bring back the water to the governorate, titled "Thirst suffocates al-Hasakeh."
The 22-day water outage in al-Hasakeh was part of a series of continued disruption of potable water supplies to al-Hasakeh region of northeast Syria, by cutting off the supply of water from the "Alok" pumping station near the city of Ras al-Ain in the northern countryside of al-Hasakeh.
The Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA), a Syrian state-controlled news agency, reported that the "Alok" pumping station includes 30 artesian wells, which were invested in 2013. The station also feeds the city of al-Hasakeh and its western countryside with approximately 175 thousand cubic meters of potable water per day, which is the need of the city of al-Hasakeh, its suburbs, and the town of Tel Tamer and its villages.
Why was the water cut off?
The head of the "Economy and Agriculture Authority" in "the Kurdish-led Autonomous Administration" in northeastern Syria, Salman Barudo, told Enab Baladi, in an email, that the direct cause of the water outage is "a kind of pressure on the Autonomous Administration" and "thwarting its development projects in the region" by the Syrian opposition factions backed by Turkey.
Barudo based this accusation on a statement by 89 civil and human rights organizations that condemned Turkey and its local councils cutting off water from civilians for the eighth time in a row, and using water as a "blackmail card."
The "Alok" station is considered the only source of drinking water for about 800,000 people residing in northeastern Syria, according to the organizations, which have warned of the impact of cutting water on efforts to contain the spread of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) in those areas.
An Autonomous Administration official described bringing water into political and military conflicts as a "war crime" punishable by international law.
International law protects specific categories of people and properties that are involved in regulating the pumping of drinking water to regions and cities, as they are indispensable elements to meet the basic needs of individuals' survival.
However, the wells of "Alok" are fed from a select line from the power transmission station in al-Darbasiyah, northeast of al-Hasakeh (under the control of the Autonomous Administration). The 12 pumps need electricity to push water to al-Hasakeh, which blames "the Autonomous Administration" that periodically cuts power from Ras al-Ain.
In response to this accusation, Barudo said that the opposition factions that control Ras al-Ain are working to connect the power lines of the "Alok" station with their military points and some of the villages they control so that the standard amount that should reach the "Alok" station is tripled, as he put it.
Mutual accusation
For his part, Abdullah al-Jashaam, the director of the media office at Ras al-Ain local council, in an interview with Enab Baladi accused the forces of the Democratic Union Party (PYD), which is the nucleus of the Autonomous Administration, as it is the authority that provides electricity to the area extending from Tell Abyad in the countryside of Raqqa to Ras al-Ain in the countryside of al-Hasakeh, which is controlled by the Turkish armies and the "Syrian National Army (SNA)."
And when the electricity is cut off from the Operation Peace Spring area, "PYD" knows that the water wells, including the "Alok" station, will stop pumping water to al-Hasakeh, according to al-Jashaam.
During "the Operation Peace Spring area," which began on 9 October 2019 and ended on the 22nd of the same month, Turkey took control of the cities of Tell Abyad in the countryside of Raqqa and Ras al-Ain in the countryside of al-Hasakeh.
This planned outage of water was repeated three or four times, without being linked to any local or international political events. Instead, the goal is to hold the opposition accountable in the public eye in the governorate, according to al-Jashaam.
Three out of 12 pumps in the Alok station pump water to the city of al-Hasakeh and the high voltage that reaches it from the electricity is less than what is needed to operate the pumps, which leads to the operation of one pump out of three, according to al-Jashaam.
Adnan al-Jadaan, director of services in the local council in Ras al-Ain city, said on 18 August that the Syrian regime and the "Kurdistan Workers' Party" (the opposition accuses the Democratic Union Party of being directly affiliated with the Workers Party, which is banned in Turkey and classified as a terrorist) are responsible for cutting off the electricity supply to the station, from both sources: al-Darbasiyah and Tishrin Dam.
Al-Jadaan added, in an interview with the local "al-Khabour" news platform, that the maintenance technicians of the wells and the station come from the city of al-Hasakeh, and work on maintenance continuously without being bothered or intercepted by anyone.
"Why do we allow them to carry out maintenance if we do not want the water to reach al-Hasakeh?" asked the services director.
At times, some pumps break down due to the weak electrical current, according to what the official indicated.
Not the first time
This is not the first time that al-Hasakeh governorate experienced a cutoff of potable water during the current year, as the city and several parts of its countryside saw a water shortage for more than a day last February.
At the time, the Director of the Water Company in al-Hasakeh, Eng. Mahmoud al-Ekla, told SANA, on 25 February, that they provide the residents of al-Hasakeh and the civilian communities in Tel Tamer district with drinking water by transporting it in tanks from "Nafasha" wells.
In a previous interview with Enab Baladi, the head of the local council of Ras al-Ain, Mari al-Yousef, said that the reason behind the water cuts during that period is because of the cut off the power to the "Alok" station that comes from the "Tishrin Dam," which is under the control of the Syrian regime forces, and the supervision of the Russian troops.
Al-Yousef added that the dam cut off the electricity to the water station, which led to cutting off the water for everyone, noting that "the residents of al-Hasakeh are not the target of cutting off the water, because the water was cut off at the same time from the residents of Ras al-Ain and Tel Abyad."
Water used as a weapon
Human Rights Watch, in a report published on 31 March, titled "Turkey/Syria: Weaponizing Water in Global Pandemic?, accused the Turkish authorities of failing to ensure adequate water supplies to the Kurdish-held areas in northeast Syria, which in turn comprises the ability of the humanitarian organizations to prepare and protect vulnerable communities in the COVID-19 pandemic.
This month, access to potable water remained a challenge to households in northeastern Syria; they do not have access to sufficient water. Thirty-six percent of the assessed civilian communities were not connected to the main water network, according to a report released by ReliefWeb, the largest humanitarian information portal in the world.
Trucking was the second most commonly reported source of drinking water in the region, while its high price also constitutes a key obstacle to accessing sufficient water. To cope with water shortages, households have limited other expenses and used their money to cover water-related costs, according to the website report, in conjunction with the high price of transporting water by trucks for the water network, which is not working partially or entirely at times, and there is not enough pressure to pump the water.
